Peasants Perspective
A Naval Blockade Becomes A Lesson In Money And Control
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Gas hits $4 and suddenly every speech about “shared values” feels personal. We start the morning as self-described peasants and use that lens to track how big narratives get sold to regular people, from foreign policy talking points to domestic enforcement priorities. Along the way we react to Clarence Thomas’s message about taking ownership and getting off the sidelines, then ask what “getting involved” looks like when the system seems designed to exhaust you into quitting.
From there, the conversation gets tactical: Iran, blockades, oil production constraints, and why energy chokepoints can reshape the global order faster than most headlines admit. Then we tie it to the money layer with a clear distinction between Bitcoin and the broader “crypto” bucket. We break down stablecoins vs Bitcoin, why exchanges can be pressured, why self-custody matters, and how sanctions collide with an asset that can move peer-to-peer. We also unpack Trump’s Bitcoin strategic reserve announcement and what it signals about digital gold, energy, and future settlement rails.
We don’t stay overseas. We move into accountability at home: fraud, DOJ priorities, Minnesota allegations, and the Tax Day fight over tariffs, income tax incentives, and the loaded phrase “voluntary compliance.” Finally, we hit the transparency questions people keep asking because the government won’t: Ukraine-related referrals, USAID kickback claims, missing scientists, and the renewed push to investigate MKUltra and the Anthony Weiner laptop claims. If you want one thread that ties it all together, it’s incentives, money, and who gets to decide what’s “allowed.”

SPEAKER_29And when they went to the green the zero trick had no bread Do you know what's meant?
Welcome And The Simultaneous Sip
SPEAKER_08Let me take the bomb screw every time we screw them. We're getting screwed. The revolution's gonna become for sure. It's the little guys, the little guys take the everybody. It's gonna be peasants, man. We're just peasants. Every one of us. You watch those old movies, you see the peasants in the background with the kings and kings walking around. We're those people. We're those people. Hello, peasants! Welcome to another episode of The Peasants Perspective. So glad to have you this morning.
SPEAKER_26On the diet.
SPEAKER_08Hey, what happened to my big up here? Oh, there it is.
SPEAKER_27Okay.
Kamala Clip And Gas Price Gripes
SPEAKER_08Good morning, peasants. Welcome to another episode of The Peasants Perspective. So glad we made it today. I got in this studio just a couple minutes before Ron did, which as you know was somewhere in the 620 range. And uh I got the whole show prepped. I'm so proud of myself. I'm so happy. I was like, oh my gosh, I'm gonna be prepping while I'm watching videos. Good morning, Carlitz. You made it first. That's awesome. Peasants Perspective, good morning. When Ron read Carlitz Good Morning, he goes, I don't know what these people look like, so I just like imagine what they look like. Uh pony boy, good morning. Pray the Rosary Daily. Good morning. Pray the Rosary Daily sent me a message this morning saying, Is your wife gonna ever be on the show? And I was like, We need another camera and a mic. That's what we need. We can set her right there. She could be a part of it. I think we should do that. That'd be kind of fun. All right, guys. I'm so glad you made it with us this morning. We are going to start things off with the simultaneous sip. It is the best part of the day, bar none. And I know why you wake up early and show here. All four of you, right here, bright and early. You're here for the simultaneous sip. And all you need is a cup, a mug, or glass of tanquin, a chalice of stein, a paper cup, a canteen, jug, or flask, or a vessel of any kind, and fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled dopamine hit of the day that makes everything better. The simultaneous sip. And while we take it, let's listen to Kamala Harris talk about how to bring down gas prices.
SPEAKER_31And the president did say in the State of the Union. There is the price to pay for democracy. You gotta stand with your friends. And as everybody knows, even in your personal life, being loyal to those friendships based on common principles and values. Sometimes it's difficult. Often it ain't easy. But that's what the friendship is about, based on shared values. So that's what we're doing.
Prison Stories And Charity Updates
Clarence Thomas On Taking Ownership
SPEAKER_08Yeah, and that's why we had to suffer through$4 plus per gallon of gas during the Russia-Ukraine incursion, right? Oh my goodness we have to stand with our friends. Well, Kamala, we have to stand with our friends now. So, you know, we're gonna have to suffer through these high gas prices. Doug Wyatt, good morning, Mana Isle, good morning from New Mexico. Glad you guys are here. Doug, I'm always so happy to see you here. It's like this little prison flashback. You know, we used to walk around the block, literally on the upper tier of the block, whether it was in DC or Philadelphia, we were in both prisons together and we'd walk around together and we'd basically do podcast episodes back and forth. It was awesome. Pony Boy, that would be a great idea for her to come on and promote Left Behind and Without. Summer and Summer programs are around the corner. Yes, thank you for mentioning that. Left Behind and Without is clipping right along. It's interesting. For it's like, you know, right when a family calls and says, hey, we need help, a small random donation comes in that's just enough to cover the program. It is it is truly an amazing thing. And when money does come in, like she she got a grant from Walmart, not a big grant, you know, like 500 bucks, but she gets ones like I think they do it like once every biannually or something like that. It's really nice because it that sets up a couple kids. So, yes, absolutely. If you're looking to make charitable donations, left behind it without is a great place to do it. Of course, it's tax deductible because she went through the process of getting it registered as a nonprofit and all that kind of stuff. So, anyways, yeah, great program, super amazing. And it kind of goes along with this. This is Justice Clarence Thomas. He gave a speech yesterday, and this is not something you hear a lot of times from a judge, right? This is not something you hear. I have I know that Clarence Thomas's wife is like super MAGA. Did you know that? No, yeah, she's super MAGA. In fact, when it came to the election fraud stuff, she was posting about it. Like I wouldn't be, I wouldn't be surprised if she was somewhere in the crowd on January 6th. Okay. So this is just as Clarence Thomas talking a little bit along the same theme about yesterday, how we talked about how we have to take our country back, right? We have to do what we need to do. And in our case, we need to remodel the Republican Party so it can answer to the people. And who's gonna do that? We are. If no one else is gonna do it, we are. I'm not gonna rely on anybody else to do it for me. I'm gonna do it for myself. And that involves, of course, enrolling all of you in that process. Doug, we do not suffer, we endure. A quote of the day. Yes, and we talked about that in prison. We talked about that quite a bit. Also, not becoming the thing we hate, right? Those are some of the things. And and Doug, you can attest. I hope I'm pretty consistent in my values. I hope. All right, here's Justice Claire Stolens.
SPEAKER_01I think if we don't stand up and take ownership of our country and take responsibility for it, we are slowly letting others control how we think and what we think. Uh the I think the beauty of going to school uh is that you learn how to think for yourself. You develop the discipline to think things through. Uh, you if you think it's losing confidence, then you get up and you participate. You don't sit on the sidelines. You think that the kind the sit that the the state is being run and inconsistent with how you feel, then you get up and you participate. You prepare yourself if you think that the medical profession is not right. When you become a doctor or be a medical uh uh person and you deal with that. Uh, I think we need to take ownership of our country. It's our country. I think it's our country.
Iran Conflict Through A Peasant Lens
SPEAKER_08What a beautiful message coming from Clarence Thomas. I love that so much. If you don't like how things are going, then you got to go get involved and don't be disenfranchised. You know, one of the things I've seen getting involved with the KCRP, the Kidsap Republican Party, is a lot of people, you know, I'll go talk to someone like, oh yeah, I used to go to those meetings. I was a PCO, but yeah, nothing ever changes. It's like, man, if you were still there and the other person who told me that was still there, and the other person who told me that were still there, and then I showed up, maybe we could do something about it. But because we go in this revolving door of in and out and in and out, and the establishment loves that. Just enough people in the room to form a quorum, but not enough people to actually remodel things and do something different, right? That's that's the ticket that they've got. Got to rearrange the deck furniture. Got to rearrange the deck furniture. Yeah, we've got to absolutely get involved. Now, speaking of standing with our friends, who are our friends? Well, it's the Persians, the people of Iran, it's the people that suffer under terrorist regimes, it's the people who suffer at the hands of Hamas and Hezbollah and even our greatest ally, Israel. Sorry, joke into my words when I say that. That's a shout out to John, who's no big fan of Israel, right? And neither are we necessarily, but we are a fan of freedom-loving people. So we got to stand with our friends. And one of those things included getting rid of the narco-terrorists, it included getting rid of the key sponsor of terrorists, Iran. And of course, we believe that the election fraud is a big part of this. And I'm gonna share something. Everybody has a perspective, right? So clearly, I lead with election integrity, right? That's that that touched my life big time. That's quartering soldiers in your house. When they stole the election from us, and I went and said something about it, I had some consequences that arose from that. Okay. So, but I did it for my friends, Ron. I did it for you and everybody.
SPEAKER_25I thought you did it for the segment because we have this great segment when I was in prison.
Stephen Miller On Trump’s Warnings
SPEAKER_08Yeah, when I was in prison. Yeah, no, I didn't do it for the segment. That would be okay. You know, I didn't do it for the segment. If I wanted that segment, I just kind of got in a DUI and had six months of prison or something. But no, no, it had to be for election fraud. So, anyways, it's interesting everybody's perspective. And I'm gonna share you because I've been doing so much deep diving into Bitcoin, I just have to understand it completely. And it's so funny because the Bitcoiners think this war in Iran is all about Bitcoin. And I'm like, huh? That's new. And it's it kind of ties into our theme as peasants here. It all ties together, it all ties together, right? When Trump takes decisive action doing these things, it's win-win, win-win, win-win-win-win-win-win-win win-win-win-win-win-win. There is nothing good about the world with the Iranian regime that chants death to America in place. There is nothing good about the world when Nicholas Maduro is sending people out of prisons into the United States to cause bedlam. Like, there's nothing good in the world when the largest slave country on the planet, China, gets cheap, undervalued oil and has slave wages and a controlled economy so that they can be mercantilistic and sell us cheap crap. You know what I mean? There's nobody wince. Trump's changing the table completely. Here's Stephen Miller talking about how Trump has warned Iran, gave them options, and we're going to listen to two clips here. And essentially, he's completely shut them down.
SPEAKER_14President Trump is a man who doesn't bluff. He is a man who follows through on what he says, who acts in every case with courage, resilience, determination, vision, focus, and direction. He warned Maduro. Maduro did not heed those warnings. And now look what happened. Look at the operation that took place in Venezuela. He warned before Midnight Hammer. Midnight Hammer happened because the Iranians did not heed those warnings. Before Operation Epic Fury, he gave Iran a chance to do the right thing. They declined, and they sustained the greatest battlefield defeat, thrashing, military annihilation we've seen in modern history. Then, after the ceasefire, President Trump said, make a deal. The Iranian terms were not satisfactory. And so President Trump flipped the tables on Iran and implemented this naval blockade. And with this blockade, President Trump is resetting the entire global order because he is saying with our Navy, we can decide, and we alone can decide how rogue regimes are able to finance themselves, how they are able to operate. That's the power of American naval might, Sean.
SPEAKER_08Now, he said something there. He said, we alone can decide how rogue regimes can finance themselves. Now we completely believe that to be dollar, the petrol dollar, dollar supremacy, and right. That's that's our understanding as laymen here. And step aside, you and step aside, yeah, exactly. So that's our understanding. Now, the where he where we've got the Iranians pinned in now, we had the ceasefire, they had a blockade. So we said, okay, well, we're gonna blockade your blockade. And what we're doing is we're turning back any and all boats that have any association with Iran. And there's clips online of that where the the military, you know, turn your boat around. This is a lawful command, blah, blah, blah. And you know, and the Iranian boats are you turning. They don't want to test it because they've seen the missiles fly, right? Hey, we're gonna start shooting down narco-terrorists coming across the board the uh ocean with with drugs in their boats. Sure, send a boat. Pew, pew, pew, pew. Guess what? Nobody wants to get in a boat with cocaine anymore, right?
SPEAKER_25It's like they're just not interested. Nobody wants the smoke.
How Blockades Squeeze Oil Production
SPEAKER_08Nobody wants the smoke, exactly. Now, Americans, some dirtbags, might want to smoke some of that crack cocaine, but they ain't getting it from Venezuela anymore, right? So we've completely shut off the strait, which is putting them in an absolute pinch point. What's gonna happen is they've got another week, maybe max week and a half, of the ability to store the oil and gas that they drill. And once those drills shut down, and I learned this recently, like this morning, driving in here, once those wells shut down, they don't just turn back on. What happens is they build pressure and silt and other things come in and it fills them in and it makes them very difficult to reopen. Like very difficult. In some cases, you can't get them back going.
SPEAKER_25Well, this is why they call it um in the industry, they call it developing a well. You have to get the flow going in order to keep it going. And then once it's going, you can't stop because once it stops, it might not turn back on. Exactly.
SPEAKER_08And so it puts them in a real decision-making position because they gotta keep them flowing. That's their lifeline, that's how they make money is oil. And if the oil stops and some of these wells go bad, they're not gonna get that production back online. On top of the fact that already contracts are moved, people are heading to the Gulf of America to buy oil from Pony Boy and his friends down there.
SPEAKER_25Well, this is some of the reason why you'll see some of these oil fields get lit on fire because they'd rather keep it flowing than stop them.
SPEAKER_08That's right. That's what happened in Kuwait.
SPEAKER_25Yeah.
SPEAKER_08They didn't light them on fire as an act of terrorism. They light them on fire to keep the oil going exactly. That is one of those things that people don't know unless you're in the industry. Like I didn't really understand that. Maybe Pony Boy would have understood that better. I'm glad you understood that. All right, so here's Stephen Miller again.
SPEAKER_14This embargo is squeezing the economic life out of the Iranian regime, and the United States has the capacity to continue this indefinitely if Iran chooses the wrong path. President Trump knows something else. He knows that American oil is the most important currency in the world. And that is why when he came into office, he unleashed American energy as never before. And that's why you see all of these ships coming to America empty and leaving laden with American energy. Do you agree with this embargo?
SPEAKER_08This embargo that's causing the oil flows to change is no less significant than the fall of the Berlin Wall or the dropping of the nuclear bomb. This rearranges the world order and it and it rearranges it in such a way, right? If you listen to like Ray Dalio and stuff, they talk about China's on the incline and America's on the decline, and there's very little that can stop that, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. This is one of those things that can stop that because China's rise is predicated on cheap oil, cheap labor, et cetera, et cetera.
SPEAKER_25It's a big part of the equation for how they make money.
Bitcoin Versus Stablecoins Under Sanctions
SPEAKER_08It's a huge part of the equation for how they make money. And the other significant thing in here is we've known this, but the significance of this is another thing. So here is Fox Business talking about how Iran has been using Bitcoin. Second.
SPEAKER_32Uh, they're said to be paid to Iran in Chinese yuan or crypto. The Bitcoin Policy Institute says bad actors are usually paying with stable coins, and US authorities are cutting them off. Watch.
SPEAKER_02Stable coins can't be confiscated, but they can be frozen. So if you're a stable coin user who's working with the Iranian regime, your wallet can be identified if you don't practice good operational security, and Treasury can sanction you and make it so your stable coins are moose. That runs in contrast to Bitcoin, where you can identify wetless actors are using Bitcoin, but you can't freeze somebody's Bitcoin in the same way you can freeze somebody's stable coins.
SPEAKER_32And that is an unintended consequence. Uh, I do want to say that crypto is a lifeline for many of the Iranian people as they see the value of their currency get devalued, but it's also a way that bad actors do things, and we're noticing it. And as I said, cutting them off. Second. Yes, cutting them off.
SPEAKER_25There said the lifeline as their currency is devalued. That's an interesting line. Yeah. You can make you could probably apply that to just about any currency, couldn't you, Taylor?
Trump’s Bitcoin Strategic Reserve
SPEAKER_08Yes, fiat. And stable coins fall under the category of fiat. But Bitcoin, Bitcoin, however, does not. So here's the significance of this, right? We have to protect the oil. We have to, we have to pinch off China and put them in a box. We've got to deal with the election integrity and the bad actors involved with that, which include Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, and ultimately China. And so every move that Trump has made all points to China. We're following that thread. And that thread runs intermixed with all of this stuff. Now, something we know happened, but I don't think the significance of this has really landed on 99% of Americans yet, is that Donald Trump had signed an executive order creating a Bitcoin strategic reserve and he designated a critical asset. What happens when America says that's a critical asset and the access needs to be open and not cut off, et cetera, et cetera? We move heaven and earth to make sure we have it, right?
SPEAKER_07And today we're signing, and this is very historic and executive order of establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve in a digital asset stockpile. It's a promise that you made throughout the campaign, and today we're keeping that promise. The reserve will be capitalized with Bitcoin that the federal government already owns, so it won't cost taxpayers a time. This is like a digital Fort Knox for digital gold. And uh premature sales of Bitcoin uh over the past years cost American taxpayers over 17 billion dollars in lost value because we didn't have a long-term strategy. Now we do.
SPEAKER_37And this is something you believe in 100%.
SPEAKER_28Yeah, okay. Very good.
Debunking The Bitcoin Server Myth
SPEAKER_08So there's Trump signing it, signing the Bitcoin strategic reserve in, designating it as critical. And why is that? Because it's digital gold, right? Stable coins are a new currency. This is just flipping from you know Federal Reserve dollar bill notes that are all have serial numbers on it to okay, it's all digital money, and we have our serial numbers and they can be controlled and cut off, it's all centralized. So Bitcoin's different, Bitcoin's totally different. So there's a lot of people out there that confuse Bitcoin with crypto. They're not the same. Are they both cryptography based? Sure. But Bitcoin is in a class of its own. Otherwise, the United States wouldn't create a Bitcoin strategic reserve. Okay. Crypto is the fiat, is the currency. Bitcoin is the gold. That's the difference. Now, do you remember this guy? He's the Professor Yang that's not a professor. He's a high school, he's a high school literature teacher. So Professor Yang was on this podcast, and there's always been a question about who started Bitcoin? Where did it come from? And Satoshi Nakamoto, who's that? We have no idea who that is. I'm actually going to show you a clip a little later on who the New York Times thinks Satoshi Nakamoto is. And he's like, I'm not Satoshi Nakamoto. Like, you know what I mean? So this is Professor Yang. And the and the caption here is tell me you don't understand Bitcoin without telling me you don't understand Bitcoin.
SPEAKER_26Okay.
SPEAKER_08So the whole thing with Bitcoin is it can't be stopped. It's no trust in that system. It's all verification. And you have independent nodes that verify all the transactions. And all the nodes across the world, there's millions of them now, have to agree. And I could have one in my garage, you could have one in your garage. In order to corrupt Bitcoin, to hack it, so to speak, or to change it, I would have to hack every single node on the planet, or 51% of them, simultaneously within that same 10-minute period, and then convince the other half of the nodes over the next five verification cycles that we weren't corrupted. Does that make sense? It's it is impossible. And even with quantum computing, the best you could do is hack your wallet, and they've already got a change for that, right? So there's no way to uh attack crypto. So when Professor Yang here is talking about where are the servers, this is someone who has no idea what Bitcoin is.
SPEAKER_17So the moment people people recognize that this is a CIA uh operation, people won't put their money into blockchain. People won't put their money into uh Bitcoin, they'll they'll they'll be like I mean uh why would I do that? You have to ask yourself this question where are the blockchain servers located? Right? Because I imagine you're able to control the hardware, you can also control the software. I don't care what they tell tell me about open source and all that. I want to know where the databases are, where the servers are physically.
SPEAKER_08So the And the guy's laughing because it's like, tell me you don't know anything about Bitcoin. That's what separates Bitcoin from everything else. It's the the United States didn't create a Bitcoin strategic reserve because the CIA created it, they created one because they can't stop it or control it. So now you have to play in that game. And that's one of the things Iran was doing.
SPEAKER_25One of the things that Iran had going on prior to this conflict in Yeah, Iran didn't all of a sudden be like, we're gonna adopt the CIA currency.
SPEAKER_08You've got to be an ultimate deep, deep, deep state conspiracy theorist that thing that like Iran Iran's already being run by the CIA, you know, 700 D chess. Yeah, 700 D chess. Now, what Iran was doing, because Bitcoin is created through energy. And so Iran was one of the hotspots on the planet for these hashes, which is what how you mine the Bitcoin. Bitcoin and they could mine a Bitcoin, which right now is right around$75,000. It peaked at$124,000 last fall. They could mine that Bitcoin for about a thousand dollars. Oh, well. Okay. Now, here in the United States, to mine that Bitcoin, you're spending like sixty-eight thousand dollars to mine the seventy-five thousand dollar and and getting lucky. Well, and it it it actually all kind of works out on this so much electricity, you end up getting so many hashes. There's kind of a way that it works. Now, obviously, the more miners, then the less it is. But what was going on there was Iran was getting a lot of Bitcoin at super cheap cost, and that was how they could facilitate transactions. And it was beyond sanctions. Just like Marco Rubio said, in five years, we won't be talking about sanctions. They can't stop it. That's the key here. They cannot stop it. It allows peer-to-peer transactions, just like I could hand you a dollar bill and you can hand I could be under sanction, you could be under sanction, we could sell each other something for cash. It's unsanctionable. That's peer-to-peer. The problem is the moment we are not peer-to-peer, now we need a third-party intermediary to trust Visa, MasterCard, the bank, a check sent in the mail. Now we need trust. Bitcoin allows me over the internet to go peer-to-peer as if we were standing next to each other. It's revolutionary. It changes everything. So all of a sudden, Brazil and China can do a direct transaction without wiring it through banks, of which Scott Bessant can click a button and tell him to stop. You see what I'm saying? Which we're going to talk about here in a second. So here is another analyst on Bloomberg talking about how Bitcoin emerges as a potential tool for Iran. Now, this is from a little while ago, and this just goes to show it all ties together, right? It's not just the elections that might justify overwhelming war, right? Trying to overthrow our nation through the ballot box and fraud and machines. It's not just terrorism and narco-terrorism and drugs, drug trades and weapons trades and nuclear weapons. That's all part of it. It's also the money. It's all of it. So anyone who's like, I'm so tired of foreign wars, this was the one. This is the one that prevented a World War III. And it's just gonna look like a regional skirmish. In a few weeks, in a few weeks, this will be over. Iran isn't fighting anymore. They're not launching missiles, they're testing the blockade and they're turning around. They have nothing left. If those wells run dry, they ain't producing any more Bitcoin. Whatever Bitcoin they have, they can use, that's fine. But you don't have anything to sell. You're blockaded. It's it's rough stuff for the regime. Okay.
SPEAKER_03It it absolutely. And there is a great recent example. The US Treasury Department recently sanctioned uh a cryptocurrency exchange, Z6, that was being used at scale by the IRGC to launder a billion dollars, which will go towards weapons proliferation and other types of destabilizing activity. Um, and that was because uh TRM, OFAC, other types of entities were able to identify wallet addresses that were associated with the regime that was using this type of crypto infrastructure. So absolutely, like these these become immediate targets for national security agencies globally to go after, and ships that are paying a toll in cryptocurrency, uh, those transactions will be there for the world to see.
SPEAKER_00You mentioned that Iran has spent decades looking for creative ways to circumvent US sanctions, uh, the UN, um, crypto among them, front companies. What will you be watching for to seek evidence, to find evidence that Iran is implementing a lot of this through the crypto ecosystem?
SPEAKER_03What we'll be looking for is large transfers involving wallets that we know to be associated or attributed to IRGC, which is a military unit which controls so much of life in Iran. That's the that's the ZSEX example. We've seen other similar examples. Um are these wallets being used? Are we seeing large sums going into these wallets? Are we seeing large sums move? Are we seeing Iranian exchanges like Nobotex used at scale? So what we're looking for is large amounts of funds being transferred. Uh, we've moved from a world where we're seeing sort of one-off transactions here and there to launder funds or maybe violate export control laws, to these large infrastructure plays where Iran is really leveraging crypto infrastructure, whether it's stable coins or exchanges, uh, to move funds. So we're looking for large transfers that we can associate directly with IRGC.
SPEAKER_08Is this and now they were able to get one of the exchanges shut down. This is the thing with Bitcoin. If you have a cold storage wallet, I can just send it from the wallet, right? There's no exchange required. If you're holding your Bitcoin in Coinbase or FTX was or Binance or any of these others, then Binance has a contract with the government, they're a corporation, and they and they have custody, not your keys, not your Bitcoin, right? It's like having your money in the bank. If I have$10,000 in the bank and they decide to do a bail-in, I it's gone. It's not my money, it's not in my custody. If I have it in my drawer at home, I still have$10,000.
SPEAKER_27Right.
SPEAKER_08They can sanction me. I got the cash. So that's the difference. They were making these huge plays and they were using these exchanges, and they were able to get one, one of the exchanges they were able to put pressure on and shut down. And guess what? Iran did. They just kept mining Bitcoin, they just kept selling oil on Bitcoin, they just went through a different avenue. So we can see the transactions, but you couldn't really do anything to stop it. Now, understanding that Bitcoin is a strategic reserve now, right? And it's a it's a critical asset, you also have to understand that the price of Bitcoin is infinite. That's the other thing. Right now, you know, it's all based on some exchange, how many pounds or how many Euros or how many dollars to a Bitcoin? But at a certain point, you stop asking how many dollars to a Bitcoin, and you start saying how many Bitcoin to a dollar, right? You start pricing things in Bitcoin, and then you have to go chase around the fiat currency to make the exchange through the Bitcoin. So this is the guy that everybody thinks is Satoshi Nakamoto, Adam Black, and he is adamant he's not Satoshi Nakamoto, but he's talking here about what the value of Bitcoin would be. Timing, timing, timing, timing, timing. Remember, Donald Trump's son, Eric Trump, has one of the largest Bitcoin mining operations on the planet right now. They hold their entire fortune of$7 billion in Bitcoin. So some people who are real pessimists might go, well, then he did he attack Iran to help with his son's business. No, no, that's not it. But you know, these guys know what's coming down the pipe, right? So this thread, we want to connect this thread. It matters to us. You can get a crypto wallet, a Bitcoin wallet. You could create your own family strategic reserve, right? Obviously, we've got the Rumble wallet. Okay. And remember, we've got our promotion going on from now until May 9th. And that is we take the total pool of tips that come in through the Rumble wallet, and whoever is the highest tipper is going to get a 10% rebate. So we're super excited about that. I'm super excited about that. And obviously, the more people that send tips, the larger the pool gets, and you've got a chance of getting it back. So let's talk about the rumble wallet real quick, and then we're gonna talk about the price of Bitcoin.
SPEAKER_25Do you know what? They took the rumble wallet off.
SPEAKER_08You've overdone it? Are you kidding me? All right, let's have some coffee then.
SPEAKER_25Let's do some coffee. That's so funny. Right with the okay, still haven't tried 7075 coffee. Now's your shot. I gotta get this on screen just so I can see what I'm doing.

Why Bitcoin’s Price Could Explode
SPEAKER_08All right. So here's Adam, who's one of the early early adopters of Bitcoin. He was one of the people emailing back and forth with Satoshi Nakamoto. Okay. So he's one of the ones that had communication with him in the early days, back when it was just the cypherpunks, and it was like, wow, this is really cool. It's peer-to-peer and it can't be changed. And all, you know, has all the it was created intentionally to solve the money problem. And it's changing the world, clearly. I mean, who would have thought that those guys were creating something that the president would be signing on his desk? We have to hoard these Bitcoin and never sell them, right? Okay. So he's talking about the value. Again, this is they say with Bitcoin, it's like the internet. We're at 1996 adoption phases. So think about where you were at in 1996 and whether or not you were using the internet or not. You know, oddly enough, my family was. My dad was in the computer industry. So as soon as the internet became a thing and there were home computers, we had one. In the 1980s, I remember as a little kid in Japan playing on the Commodore 64.
SPEAKER_25Whoa.
SPEAKER_08Yeah. I remember playing all the different games.
SPEAKER_25I remember being jealous of a kid that had a Commodore 64.
SPEAKER_08As an elementary school kid, right? As an elementary school kid, I learned how to do DOS prompts. That's how I could go play Duke Nukem and Doom. I had to do DOS prompts.
SPEAKER_25Dude, I I coded a video game in DOS 3.0.
SPEAKER_08You know what else I did? And my dad, if he's listening, he can chime in on using basic. My dad had a had somehow we acquired a Macintosh Classic SE, like one of those old box ones, like the original ones. And I figured out how to create folders with passwords. Oh. And so what I did, Dad, please please comment on this. You need to verify this. This is so funny. So I created, I created, I took my entire, I was in third grade. I created my entire elementary school class. I got the roster and I made a folder for every kid. So what what I and then I brought this, I brought the computer to school, right? And I took it into the classroom and I set it in there. And you know, as an elementary school kid, you pass notes, right? And so it's like what you can do is you can go to the computer, you can click on Word, you can create it, create a letter, and then you can drop it in whoever's folder that you want.
SPEAKER_25This is pre-email.
SPEAKER_08And I charged a nickel to write the letter. You're the original emailer. Yes. Okay. So I charged a nickel to write the letter and go drop it in someone's folder. And then that person had their own password, and they could go log in and go read the note on the computer. So it was in class for about three or four days. And then my my teacher calls my dad and she's like, You need to tell your son to take this computer home. And he's like, Why? Well, she told him what I had done and how I'd set it up. And she goes, And I and I owe him 25 cents. So yes, I I created an email system on a on a Macintosh classic SE. What do they call that? Intra email or whatever it's called, or uh not internet, intranet and internet system going on.
SPEAKER_25I was also pretty blessed early on. My my dad saw the wisdom of computers as well. And instead of investing in Microsoft stock, he bought an Apple II Plus. It was like 3,000 bucks. We always talk about that, like, man, if we would have taken that money invested in Microsoft stock, we'd all be freaking rich.
SPEAKER_08We'd all have Apple computers. Anyways, when people when people are like, Oh, here's my dad calling me. Let's see what's he gonna say. Oh no. Dad, you're you're live on the air. What's up?
SPEAKER_22Sorry?
SPEAKER_08Sure.
SPEAKER_22What happened was you got my computer, and the teacher called us and said, Would you please come get the computer because I owe money? So that they had to pay about five cents to send messages, but not to send it to open up who the message was.
SPEAKER_08Oh, that's yeah, it was it was it was to get the message they had to pay.
SPEAKER_22That's uh to get the message they had to pay five cents, and the teacher asked us to come get the computer because uh you were causing a problem. Oh, we're sorry because the kids not paying, that's not the point. Everybody's sending me messages and I owe him money. Thanks, thanks, dad.
SPEAKER_08I appreciate it. That's funny, but yeah, so that you know, true story. And you know, when people are like, What where do you you're like such an entrepreneur? Listen, man, I was born this way. I don't I've got story after story of some of my early business ventures. Okay, so this is Adam talking about the price of Bitcoin. You have to internalize this. One of the things that we get when we talk about Bitcoin over at 1776 Live is is it too late yet? And it encourages people to go look at crypto, you know, other cheaper coins because it we can get in early. None of them are gonna be like Bitcoin. It's a different thing, okay.
SPEAKER_19And you know, the fact that we had an end of epoch new all-time highs, that means we and a half kind of idea is the kind of confirmation that it w it would have gone higher if not for all of those headwinds. And so you know, I think it's probably incorrect to draw too mances from uh last cycle. And so, you know, if you if you take that out, I think that there's a lot of positive news that you know$100,000 is way too cheap. Expect to put in the year, and you know, you get between uh hundred thousand and a minimum and uh a million uh during this cycle. So we'll see if that transpires. And I think the other thing is that you people talk about dimension returns and different uh models. I mean models are not necessarily that predictive, but you know, start to play power law and process of the models. And you know, they are this this dimension return theory, you know, like technically an S-curve, like adoption of internet, adoption of mobile phones when they first came out, things like that. They go through a gradually phase where it's kind of neat thing and it's expensive and very few people have it, and then it becomes a virtual phenomenon when everybody has it, and the adoption stuff that gets people, right? It could almost be the opposite, right? People are calling for dimensional terms, but you know, maybe there are a hundred million people with some form of Bitcoin exposure, you know, that can that can reach a tipping point when there are a few more people to have it, so that you know everybody's talking about it and they're you know they start to use it.
SPEAKER_08So what are you saying? It's like you know, you go through history and people are like, why does people people don't need home computers? There's no point in that. Then along comes Dell and everybody gets a home computer. And it's like, oh, there's a market there. But why do we have to replace the horse and carriage? I mean, this is silly. This is silly. Henry Ford comes along, he's like, I think everybody would like a car. All of a sudden everybody gets it. How about the internet? Ah, what's the point of that? The post office is great, and you know, telephone's great. What do you need up? What do you need the internet for? And all of a sudden now it's ubiquitous. Even three-year-olds are accessing the internet to play their games.
SPEAKER_25The problem with all these things is that they add value that is undeniable, and you can't you can't stop it. Yeah.
SPEAKER_08The idea that the United States was create a strategic Bitcoin reserve and then watch the value of Bitcoin go to zero is ridiculous, right? They're planning on the value of Bitcoin going to multi-million dollars per coin. Bitcoin will be the way we sell oil. It's now the petro coin, right? That's that's going to be the thing because Bitcoin is the representation of energy stored. And where do we get our energy? El Petro, right? That's what's going on here, and that's why Iran was an early adopter of it. It avoids sanction. Venezuela, Brazil, China, they're all using it. So that's why Trump is adamant about resetting the world order now, getting a reserve, and we're probably gonna, I wouldn't, I would not be surprised if by the time end of Trump's term, he's like, oh yeah, by the way, we settle out our oil transactions in Bitcoin. So do you want to be someone sitting on the sideline with with crypto coins trading against Bitcoin, or do you want to have be someone who owns Bitcoin? The other great thing, too, is now you can like borrow against Bitcoin, so you never actually have to sell it, which is what these nation states are trying to do. Okay, so this is Scott Bessett talking more about how he's going after the bank accounts of the Iranians, specifically in the Middle Eastern countries that have up till now shielded the banking of the Iranians and allowing them to exchange money through there and even reaching into China. Yeah, I think that's which by the way is another reason why Bitcoin is unstoppable, because this phase is the last time these tools are going to be available for America to use.
SPEAKER_21That's the uh not a correct characterization. Uh, yesterday we announced Operation Economic Fury, and we uh for over a year we have had maximum pressure on the Iranians, both on blocking payments into uh the Iranian state and going after the accounts of the IRGC. Uh one of the what may prove to be fatal mistakes that the Iranians made was bombing their GCC neighbors and who are now willing to be much more transparent in terms of the funds uh do a deeper dive in investigating the funds that are held within their banking systems. So uh we have uh pushed out to them the request that we want to freeze more funds of the leadership uh of the IRGC and any members of Iranian leadership. The other thing that we have done is we have told companies, we have told countries that if you are buying Iranian oil, that if Iranian money is sitting in your banks, we are now willing to apply secondary sanctions, which is a very stern measure. And the Iranians should know that this is going to be the financial equivalent of what we saw in the kinetic activities.
SPEAKER_08Basically, we're taking out the money. We're taking out their cash. To the extent that we can take out their cash, we're taking out their cash. We are starving out the IRGC. They just they're just not gonna be able to pay for anything. I mean, they're they're basically gonna be left with the bullets they have. That's it. And uh I'm sure it's gonna be ugly. I feel deeply for the Iranian citizens who are gonna be suffering the the redirected wrath of the IRGC as they seek to maintain control. But the best thing Iran can do is capitulate. They have the the best thing they can do is capitulate and come back into privately the president to the League of Nations, as they say. Even John Fetterman gets this, giving praise to Donald Trump for going after Iran. It's all of the things, right? It's all of the things, depending on your perspective. Like we saw the election stuff and the election thread early. You could see the drug trade and the weapons trafficking and the terrorism. That's obvious. The Iran doesn't get a nuke, there's one right there. But you've got North Korea with a nuke, and Israel has a nuke, and they're not supposed to have them either, right? So that's not reason enough alone. Does that make sense? It's but then it's also banking. You can't have a world where Iran sits on top of the banking cartel as well. And Bitcoin makes it impossible for any nation state to deal with it. It's decentralized at its core, and everyone who runs a node has a say in it. And that's the thing that Professor Yang clearly has no idea how Bitcoin actually works.
SPEAKER_30What President Trump decided to do was deal with the Iranian regime. Every single president since 1979 wanted to deal with it. And I how could you turn your back and pretend that's was I mean, can you imagine? Could you imagine if Iran acquired a nuclear bomb? Where they would be right now, where they were able to build the kinds of missiles that could reach Europe or the other American assets in the region for that. So that's was necessary. That's the right side of history for me. And I'll be the only Democrat that supported it publicly, but I guarantee I'm not the only Democrat, at least privately, you know, refuse to acknowledge that because politically it's very toxic as a Democrat.
Bessent On Sanctions And Gas
SPEAKER_08Yeah, you can't acknowledge the orange man does anything good, but secretly they're all like, oh, thank goodness for Trump. Which, you know, it depends on how that really plays out in their personal feelings, it might stave off an impeachment. Right? You've some Democrats were like telling the House members, hey, knock that shit off. I don't want to vote against this guy. He's actually doing good things, he's cleaning up. So even if we come back into power, at least we'll have a good situation to come back into. Scott Bessant is here talking about taxes. Let's see. Oh, he's talking, he's making a threat to the oil companies. So as this engagement in Iran broke out, Tim Burkhart told us, listen, they jacked the price of oil up long before, or the gas of price of gas long before the expensive oil actually came to market. Right? The moment we dropped a bomb, they're like, jack the prices up.
SPEAKER_25But they do this every time. Yes. And it takes weeks for the it takes weeks for the expensive oil to get here, but the prices go up, and then the prices stay up while the cheap oil makes its way back in.
SPEAKER_08Exactly. So Scott Besson says we're not going to do that. In fact, we're going to use some of our financial tools if if you're gouging. So when the price of oil comes down, it needs to reflect at the pump just as fast as when the price downward trend on inflation. Yeah.
SPEAKER_21Well in core. And core, and core inflation. And the the market based indicators are also telling you. That there is no transfer in terms of inflation expectations.
SPEAKER_33What about the impact of the oil price and higher gas prices on the real economy? You know, you started off by talking about how much better the refunds look, up 13%. That's money in consumers' pockets, but does it get offset by the higher gas prices?
SPEAKER_21It could, but again, I think the gas prices will start coming down pretty quickly. We've had the big declines in the past two weeks. We'll be looking at Treasury to uh try try to keep the uh retail gas stations honest that you did this on the way up, better be doing this on the way down. And I'm sure the president will call out anyone who's a bad actor in terms of that sounds like a warning. Uh the uh I I am sure that everyone will be a good actor.
SPEAKER_08It sounds like a warning. I'm sure everyone's gonna play nice because as Kamala says, you have to defend your friends. This is the price of democracy, right? Okay. Donald Trump was asked in his interview with Maria Bartolomo because apparently there was another attempted or successful, who knows, cyber hack by China. And you know what I love about Donald Trump? He's just so candid about it.
SPEAKER_37Like he's like, yeah, and I wrote because I had heard that China's giving weapons to uh if I mean you're seeing it all over the place to Iran, uh, that China's Did he say he's giving them and I wrote him a letter asking him not to do that, and he wrote me a letter saying that essentially he's not doing that. Okay.
SPEAKER_39Well, we just heard from the FBI recently that there was a major cyber attack attributed to China. Uh, what response is under consideration for that cyber attack?
SPEAKER_37We do it to them. They do it to us, we do it to them, you know.
SPEAKER_39Well, what was the last time we did cyberattack at China?
SPEAKER_37Well, I don't know. I'm not gonna tell you that, but we do them, they do us. It's been like that for a long time.
SPEAKER_39So it's not gonna be addressed?
SPEAKER_37I'll address things, but you know, it is what it is. Look, China's China, they're never easy, but we're doing great with China. I'm the toughest person in China, anywhere in the world. I put on a hundred percent tariff on Chinese cars. We don't have a Chinese car in the whole country.
SPEAKER_08They do it to us, we do it to them. Look, we've been doing this for a while. It's a tit for tat game. Like, what do you want me to expect from me? What do you want me to wage nuclear war over a cyber attack? They're they're responding to us, cyber attacking them. We started the whole mess. We Al Gore invented the internet, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_18Al Gore. Oh boy.
SPEAKER_08So I love that. He is the toughest on China, but she he's a good friend of mine. He's a good friend of mine. That is that is one of the funniest things that Trump ever says. She and I are great friends. We get along great. That's like that makes it so that she can't really say Trump is bad because Trump never says she is bad. Meanwhile, he's cutting off all his energy. He's cutting off, he's he's he's protecting Taiwan. He's, you know, getting rid of all of their proxies that that they do things with. He's kicking him out of the panel, but she and I get along great. She don't get along great. Are you kidding me? I think I did hear a press.
SPEAKER_25Did we hear a press release recently where they were like, you're going to China? Yeah, I'm gonna go over there and give him a big hug.
Minnesota Fraud And Walz Impeachment
SPEAKER_08I'm gonna go over there and give him a big hug. No, uh, swaddling hijab Elon Omar was on with Charlemagne the God. And uh and he was asking her about fraud and all that kind of stuff. And remember, we found out from Joni Ernst that Elon Omar put up an amendment in a bill that was gonna give a million dollars to a, I don't know, some care place that was at a restaurant. Okay. Right. And obviously, we know everything that's been going on in Minnesota, which we're gonna talk about here in a couple minutes. Articles of impeachment have been filed on on uh Tim Wall. Yeah. So so Charlemagne the God is asking about, well, what about all this fraud that's going on in Minnesota? How does that affect things? And her answer's, I think, kind of interesting.
SPEAKER_36It's what now 230 million um that has been um uh well 250 is what they say. Yeah, issues points for child nutrition.
SPEAKER_38Yeah, 230 to 250. Um there's been about 77 or so uh defendants. Yeah, that have been um uh indicted. Many of them have taken plea agreements.
SPEAKER_36Um they gotta make it hard for you, right? Just in general. Not not because you're you're you you got anything to do with it.
SPEAKER_38Yeah.
SPEAKER_36But when he can point and say, well, this is this actually happened.
SPEAKER_38I mean, it it it may it doesn't make it hard for me, um, but it does make it hard for you know, the the the average um Somali business owner. There you go. Um, it makes it hard for the average immigrant business owner, it makes it hard for the average black um business owner because it does create uh this cloud of um suspicion. Uh and you know, and obviously it's become very politicized. Um and it will continue to be politicized as we get closer to to November. Um and and the the level of harassment people are dealing with, you know, even you'll have people go to restaurants, coffee shops. Oh, restaurants, like a restaurant that you were trying to funnel a million dollars through, maybe um, with their their cameras harassing all of these business owners and daycares and daycare centers um where people have not been able to take their their children because they're they weren't taking their kids there, anyways.
SPEAKER_08That's the thing. The amazing thing about that is she's assuming that there's legitimate businesses. Right now, we would have all assumed that, and you know, by the law of large numbers, you'd think there would be some. They just couldn't find any.
SPEAKER_25And that's the scandal. Nick Shirley, come on, man.
SPEAKER_08You know, Nick Shirley goes around with that guy who was investigating this for years and years, and it's like, you can't find a single daycare that's taking public money like that that has kids in it. Now, there's lots of videos that went out, and they'd go to other daycares that were not on the public funds, they weren't getting the grant money, and they had kids in them. They were operating as legitimate businesses with a profit loss, and you gotta have so many kids. And there were actually kids in those businesses and no tax dollars. But everywhere they went with tax dollars, there was nothing. Interesting, interesting how that worked, right? And so when she's saying that, it's like, well, it doesn't affect me. Oh, what about the vineyard? The the net$30 million net worth, you know, the whole thing. It's like, geez, Louise. Charlemagne the God is extremely disingenuous. Oh, yeah, right? If he has someone that's conservative on, he brings up the most niche scandal thing for him. He has Ilon Allmar. Dude, it's she's riff with things that are about.
SPEAKER_25And he rolls out a carpet.
SPEAKER_08He rolls out a carpet, yeah. Not that it affects you at all, right? It directly affects her. We have her and Keith Ellison on tape taking kickbacks. You know what I mean? Okay, Attorney General Tad Blanche, he's acting attorney general Tad Blanche, likely to become the Attorney General Tad Blanche, Blanche, Blanche, Blanche, Blanche. I I have to say, I've been critical of him. Peter Ticklin's been very critical of him, but yet he's the one who broke free the J6 deal yesterday, which is a big deal. In the private side today, in in subscription only, we're gonna listen to Joe Biggs talk about how significant that dismissed with prejudice was for his case. Uh, they have like statutory money coming to them as a payback,$10,000 a day. He was in prison for four years. Okay. I was in prison for 420 days. No, I did not get high in prison. Okay. I was in prison for 420 days. So do the bath. That's that's what the government owes me statutorily if we got that same deal. So Todd Blanche, um, there very well may have been a case that Pam Bondi was a Bill Barr 2.0 and Todd Blanch is Trump's wingman. And I've believed, I have believed this since the beginning. And and Doug, you can talk about this. When people talked about getting out of prison and wanting to get paid, I was like, yeah, that's gonna come, but it's gonna come in like this order. There has to be disclosures all the way. And the timing of that, who knows what that was gonna be? We're getting closer. We're getting closer. There's supposed to be a J6 report out. We got the FACE Act report, right? All these different things. Now, if some Democrat like Tom Till, or yeah, some Democrat like Tom Tillis is like uh, hey, you are paying the J6ers, you can put a report and just say, do you support this type of do, you know, due process violations, civil rights, and constitutional rights violations? Are you are you endorse this? Do you see what I'm saying? They have to have the evidence, the proof. It's best if the system self-corrects. If Donald Trump came in and just said, we're gonna fix that, we're gonna fix that, we're gonna fix that, we're gonna fix that. And he did a lot of that, right? But you override courts, you suspend habeas corpus, and you, you know what I mean? You don't respect it. It creates all these new weird precedents. So the next time we get a Democrat or someone that has a different political persuasion, they do rule like a king. So Donald Trump does wants to use the system. If the system, the weaponization, you've got to disclose the weaponization, then you can go do something about it. And I actually think in this new age, the key to like bypassing blackmail is just release it. Just release it and be honest about it. If someone came and said, hey, I'm gonna black me for this, I'd be like, okay, well, I'm just gonna tell everybody about it, and then just you know, let the cards fall where they may. It's just ultimately just negate it. And what happens with the internet is you're always just one video upload away from the whole thing falling apart. That seems to be what happened with Eric Swalwell. You got one video here, one video here, and it's more than, hey, we met Naskiff, and you know, uh Eric Swalwell had a Chinese girlfriend named Feng Fang Bang Bang, and you know, blah, blah, blah, blah, but we don't see it, right? But the moment we saw it, all of a sudden, you're out. I mean, just like that.
SPEAKER_25We don't even need to hear the you know, the words. We know we can see it with our eyes.
SPEAKER_08We can see it. Yeah, it's verified metadata. Boom, you're done. So here's Todd Blanche saying that they've refocused the Department of Justice and the FBI to go after real criminals. Now, this is great. This is great. They should be doing their job anyways. You know, the debate's still up whether we actually even need the FBI, but we'll see.
SPEAKER_15I can tell you that we're doing exactly the same thing today that we've been doing um for the past 14 months, which is working hard to put all of the president's uh priorities um into action to try to keep America safe. And and we've refocused a lot of efforts um away from the where they were the past four years and into a place where we think they should be, which is going after drugs, drug dealers, going after violent criminals, going after um terrorists, and also anybody that's committed any fraud. And that's our that's our focus. It's not a new focus, but it's gonna continue to be the focus going forward.
SPEAKER_08I can tell you excellent. You make sure some politicians are on that list, because if they're not, then we know you just retargeted the American people. You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_06Now, I mentioned that my that uh waltz has articles of impeachment filed, impeachment of Governor Tim Walls for failure to faithfully execute the laws of the state of Minnesota, abuse of power, and obstruction of oversight. Under Minnesota Article, Constitution, Article 8, Section 1, the governor may be impeached for malfeance, non-feasance, or corrupt conduct. These standards do not require a criminal conviction. They require a breach of public trust and a failure to uphold the duties of the office. Additionally, Article 5, Section 3, requires the government to ensure that the laws are faithfully executed. Minnesota statutes governing fraud, oversight, and fiduciary responsibilities require state leadership to safeguard taxpayer funds. Evidence presented in legislative and congressional investigations show that billions in taxpayer funds were lost through fraud in Minnesota social services programs. Oversight systems failed repeatedly under executive leadership. Federal investigation and lawmakers have estimated up to 9 billion in fraud across multiple programs administered by the state.
Tax Day And The Tariff Argument
SPEAKER_08So he goes on and on to describe more and more of this stuff there. Whether or not Tim Waltz is ultimately impeached or not is going to be dependent on how badly the Democrats feel they're getting burned. Right? If you feel like you're a Democrat and you can't win if it continues, then you'll vote for impeachment. Or if you yourself have, you know, are are being the backlash of being in the same party with Tim Waltz. The only thing you can do is create some separation. So, you know, Minnesota is a is a Democrat state. I think they have majorities where they need them. So who knows if that's going to be successful, but it's been done. It's now on the record. So yesterday was a big day, Ron. What was yesterday?
SPEAKER_25Tax day.
SPEAKER_08Tax day. Did you know that tax day is not ubiquitous, that we haven't always had income taxes? It's kind of amazing. When Donald Trump was on Joe Rogan's show, he addressed this how we as a nation can do without taxes. We didn't always have them.
SPEAKER_37Unless they pay a big price, and the big price is tariffs. And he'd speak like that, but he was right. And then around in the early 1900s, they switched over stupidly to, frankly, an income tax. And you know why? Because countries were putting a lot of pressure on America. We don't want to pay tariffs. Please don't you. You know, they believe me, they control our politicians. If you look at the kind of numbers that these guys make then and now, but uh we had a commission meeting in the uh eight I think it was 1887. Think of this problem. We were so rich, we had so much money, we didn't know what to do, so they set up a blue ribbon commission on tariffs. And the sole purpose is what to do with all the money we had. We were so rich because we were taxing other people for coming in and taking our jobs. And China does it. That's what China did. If you want to open a factory and sell cars, if you build a factory here or have a factory, they don't take our cars. They wouldn't take our cars. But if you build a plant in China, you can do that. Elon did that. By the way, Elon is great. That guy is such a great guy. I think you're a fan of Elon. He is from a different planet. He's the greatest guy.
SPEAKER_08So he's talking about how we used to pay for the for the government's revenue through tariffs. And we had so much money that they had like a surplus. Like, what do we do with this? But other nations didn't want to pay the interest on the money through the tariffs. So they they really fought off our politicians. And you can go learn all about it. The book Creature from Jekyll Island breaks this down. It's a stunning. When you read it, again, it's another one of those you want to vomit in your mouth because you look at the world around you and you're just like, I had to live in this world of illusion. You know? So Dan Scavino, who is Donald Trump's right-hand man, he started out as his caddy and became his essentially social media manner. And he's probably the most non-family loyal person to the president ever. On 8825, he posted abolish the IRS. And he recently retruthed that or re retweeted that or re-ex that. What do you what do you call it now?
SPEAKER_27Yeah.
SPEAKER_08Reposted it. So we're on this path to abolish the IRS. Here is from yesterday. This is Scott Bessant. They did that same press conference where we talked about going to the Iranian money. He talked about how this year um is one of the biggest tax refund years ever.
SPEAKER_21Thanks to promises made, promises kept, the through the working families tax cuts, the president has delivered the record refunds to the American people. More than 45% of the filers of the returns that we have seen have had at least one of the four presidents' signature policies. No tax and tips, no tax and overtime, the deductions for our great seniors, and the deductibility of interest on auto loans for American-made cars. And I will tell you that the biggest one of those that Americans have taken is no tax and overtime. And it's the American way. If you want to work longer hours, you get to keep more of your money. And the with with that, that we are seeing, uh, I want to encourage everyone out there watching today to change their withholding if they haven't already done so. Because if you change your withholding, then you will get an automatic real wage increase, be it on a weekly or a monthly basis, and you will be able to keep more of your money this calendar year. So uh with that, we have also seen uh with the Trump accounts, we have had five million families file.
SPEAKER_08Now that last little bit where he says, go change your withholdings. That's the clip has been pulled out, and people are going, look, he's alluding to the IRS being abolished. And I listened to that a couple times. I'm like, that's not what he's saying. He's saying change your withholdings to get more money back. He's nothing to do with withholding, because the way the refund works, it's a refund, dum-dums. You paid them 0% interest, and then they refund it to you. And if you miss a tax payment, they charge you 12% interest. Right. Okay, so I've always thought I've always thought it was insanity when people have money withheld from their paycheck. That's just them simply admitting that they don't want to save the money for taxes. You could invest it somewhere else and make money on it and then pay the IRS on April 15th.
SPEAKER_25It's a sign that you don't have discipline.
SPEAKER_08It's a sign that you don't have discipline. Exactly. Exactly. So the fact that we are giving big refunds, that means you're overfunding. Now, the truth of the matter is, and this is something we we do not live in a world where you can just say taxation is theft. Okay. It's not theft. You have roads, you have law enforcement, which I don't care what you're feeling after being to prison, I back the blue. Do I think cops have to be held to a high standard? Yes. Do I think all cops are bad cops? Yes, but that's based on the premise that if we had good cops, there wouldn't be bad cops, right?
SPEAKER_25Well, and also it's not theft because in some weird way we have agreed to it.
SPEAKER_08In some weird way we have agreed to it, yes. But there are things what's going on in Iran couldn't do that. Couldn't do that if we didn't pay taxes. Now, what are authorized taxes? Sales tax, authorized, tariffs, authorized, tax on guns, actually authorized. Okay, tax on gambling winnings, authorized. Okay, there's a whole bunch of taxes that are constitutional that are authorized, and you should pay them. If you go to the store and there's a sales tax, it's a point of sale, one times tax on your consumption, your choice of consumption. Totally legitimate. Income tax, on the other hand, is a whole different story. That's a whole different story. The entire IRS is set up as an incentivization program. They can steer what types of businesses you open, what types of things you buy based on tax deductions.
SPEAKER_25Well, listen to what Scott Bessant just said. You know, if you buy a United States-made car, you get to write off the tax.
The IRS Voluntary Compliance Claim
SPEAKER_08The interest. It's an incentive. AKA by Americans. Right. We're incentivizing you through this tax scheme. Right. Now, Bukelli blew the whistle on this whole thing, and he's not the first guy to blow the whistle, by the way, talking about how the whole tax system is a fraud. Because not one dollar that you pay in income tax goes to anything other than to pay the interest on the debt of the money that was printed when you bought a house, when you opened a credit card, when you bought a car. So not only do you pay the interest on the loan itself, but then the entire world has to pay interest on that dollar based on the bonds that the treasury does its little exchanging and swap. And we listened yesterday from, or was it yesterday or a couple days ago, where Ben Bernanke's like, the Fed just puts the money in the accounts. Like they're not, it's not backed by anything. Hence the necessity of Bitcoin. So here's Bukele, the first sovereign nation that went to a Bitcoin standard and legalized it as tender.
SPEAKER_28For instance, the financial situation of the United States. If the next president of the United States doesn't make the necessary policies and structural changes, sooner or later that bubble will burst. It's still time. You don't have to make the same mistakes we did in the 60s and the 70s.
SPEAKER_08And that is why Donald Trump created the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve. It is impossible for us to go back to a gold standard. It is impossible because self-custody of gold is very problematic. Transacting in gold is extremely problematic. International transactions, you want to order something off eBay that's getting shipped overseas. Impossible. It all requires an intermediary. It requires trust in an exchange, a bank, an institution, and all of that can be sanctioned and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Right? Bitcoin changes the game. And you have to recognize this is this is from the IRS code or this is the code of federal regulations, section 601, 602, tax forms and instructions. And I'm going to highlight it here. The service distributes the forms and instructions to help tax players comply with the law. The tax system is based on voluntary compliance, and the taxpayers complete and return the forms with payment of any tax owed. This word right here matters. This word voluntary. What does voluntary mean? Of your own free will. Of your own free will, of your own choice, uncoerced by threat, fear, force, or coercion, intelligently, willingly, knowingly, and voluntarily. The compliance part is you volunteer to comply with a code that doesn't apply to you unless you volunteer. The trick is they don't tell you that you're volunteering. And they will enforce things on you if you don't volunteer. Here's former IRS agent. He's been making the rounds today or lately. He was on Laura Logan Show and Marjorie Taylor Green, and he talks about how he, as an IRS enforcement agent, the guy that had the guns, literally, he was the gun trainer at the IRS that when they went and raided someone, that he's the guy that you know had the guns, pointed at him, saying, put the handcuffs on and we're taking all your jewelry. Okay. And he found out about this, did his own research. He hasn't paid taxes since like 1998. And they even took him to court and he won.
SPEAKER_11Into my career at the IRS, I was listening to a talk radio show on uh KSFO out in San Francisco, still there, the station. And this lady was on the show talking about the income tax and that most Americans weren't actually required to pay it. There was no law ever passed by Congress, signed by a president that required the average American to pay the income tax. And I'm thinking, no, lady, we're Americans are required to pay this, and I'm I'm here to make sure of it. But it turned out that after two years of off-duty research, while I would still go to work every day as an IRS criminal investigator, I slowly uh uh gathered evidence. I didn't make anything up. I just looked at Supreme Court case law, the Internal Revenue Code, the Code of Federal Regulations, and more details than I ever saw on a CPA exam or in San Jose State or in the IRS training. But these were details that were incontrovertible. I mean, the Supreme Court, you know, isn't supposed to be the Supreme Law of the land once they make a decision. Over this two-year period, uh, you know, driving my wife uh crazy and not being able to be soccer coach to my kids as much as I would have wanted. I'm after my 50-hour a week job, I'm investigating whether this income tax is, you know, there's a problem with it.
SPEAKER_08Yeah. And a lot of people have investigated it and they've come to the same conclusion, but what you're gonna do about it? What are you gonna do about it? Right now, here's the thing income tax enforcement is something. This was this was a congressional hearing, and I'm sorry this video is like a TikTok video. I've got this longer clip somewhere. Actually, I won't pull it up. I've got a I've got a clean clip of this, but this is the whole thing, right? It's voluntary compliance, but they use coercion to enforce it.
SPEAKER_12As we all know that uh our U.S. tax system is a voluntary tax system, and we depend on people willing every year to sit down, fill out that form, and pay their appropriate amount of taxes. So I really think enforcement is is a reward to those who voluntarily comply. And I think if if the public does not see that the IRS is enforcing the laws, we're gonna be at risk of losing people continuing to voluntarily comply.
SPEAKER_08Okay. Okay. Why? Because they want to maintain control. I've said this ever since I figured this out. They don't care about the money. They can print that shit. They care about control, they care about making sure that you buy what they want you to buy, don't buy what they want you to buy, build businesses the way they want you to build them, etc. Employ people the way they want you to employ them. That's what the system is doing. Buchelly nailed it there. The money doesn't go to fill in potholes. We're talking about income tax. Taxes are completely legitimate. Taxes are necessary. The phrase taxation is theft really needs to leave our vocabulary because it's how we pay for public services when we're talking about property tax, school bond levies, you know, sales tax, et cetera, et cetera.
SPEAKER_25And we volunteer it. Huh? And we volunteer it.
SPEAKER_08Well, no, that's not volunteer. You ain't buying something if you don't pay the sales tax. It's a point of sale tax, but it's a it's a one-time tax. I'm sorry. Okay. Income tax is a different story. Income tax is a different story. Now, if we had income tax and it actually went to public services, not to pay debt on debt on paper, right? It would be a different thing. We we would be, oh my gosh, could you imagine how much money we'd have? And we would limit government spending, right? We want our taxes to be used efficiently, effectively, in the best possible way where we get results for it. But when it's untethered from real value, right, when you're not actually spending gold to make sure the pothole gets filled, it's easy to print the money, spend it on something else, and then come back for a second round and go, oh yeah, we still have to fill in the potholes. This is the game Washington State's playing. Right. This is the game Washington State's playing. Hey, we don't have enough money for our bills. How do you not have enough money for your bills? The potholes are still in the road. The homeless are still on the street. You know, it's an incentive program. It's trying to curb behavior. The more homeless people on the street, the more people in Seattle are willing to pay higher taxes, X, Y, Z, because they want to get rid of the homeless people. And so the government sees it as an incentive to keep the homeless people because it's a well you can keep on tapping for people to keep on paying more because they see suffering all around them. So we have to create accountability. This is going to be a part of our political remodel for sure. Now, Todd Blanche, on the enforcement side of things, is like, oh yeah, by the way, pay your share.
SPEAKER_15There's a whole reformation happening. There's now no tax on tips. So you have thousands and thousands of workers in this country who get a meaningful, who need it the most, who get a meaningful break. You have a new fraud task force. That's all President Trump. We are going to focus very, very heavily on the fraud and waste that's happening across this country through our tax dollars. That's that's because the president is a driver of results. And so I don't have any issues with that. And as a matter of fact, I think it's why he was elected.
SPEAKER_08Oh, well, the clip goes on to say he goes, uh, pay your share, fair share, you know, pay your share. Okay, I get it. Uh you're gonna go enforce, great, but we got a long ways to go. We got a long way to go. I've never met anyone, Republican or Democrat, that thinks the tax callers go in the right places, right? Even if you concede to the taxation scheme, you you you know it's not going to the right places. And guys like Nick Shirley just blow up the narrative that it is completely. Here's that same IRS invasion investigator, Joseph Bannister, talking about how the IRS itself is committing fraud in the way they go about doing it. And that creates the coercion that puts fear in people to volunteer, hence the coercion into volunteering.
SPEAKER_13Prosecuted, uh, you went to trial, you won that trial. Uh, are you worried you'll be prosecuted again?
SPEAKER_10No, actually, there were two criminal investigations against me over the years, uh, one in from 2001 to 2004, and then another one in 2010, and all the all the while uh not filing a tax return, and not out of some uh sense of civil disobedience. Of course, my investigation indicated that I didn't have the filing requirement. I confronted my I. The evidence that I gathered, and they told me to to hit the road to uh to leave and not discuss any of my questions. So all these years I had to go with what I knew to be true as a certified public accountant and for my own life. And the fact is the same back pattern would fit with most Americans, although I don't you know tell people what to do. But for myself, since I was a link in the chain of putting people in prison over the income tax, I felt that I had to you know absolutely speak up about it. The IRS didn't want to talk about it, and so that's basically how the last 26 years have gone for me.
SPEAKER_13You don't have to identify them, but I'm curious. I mean, when you when you are in a work setting, you have coworkers, you have colleagues, you often make friends with people that you're around in in an office environment. Do you ever still communicate with people who work at the IRS? And if so, what are those communications like?
SPEAKER_10Uh they don't really understand the issue. Uh they either dodge it or they just have no clue that it's even going on. They just want to speak, you know, IRS speak. And so I have to, you know, I remember how to speak that way. So I basically have to just, you know, deal with people that that don't realize what they're doing is is illegal. Um, yeah, the IRS has to literally lie to their own computer systems to achieve assessments. I've coined the term the 1040A scam. And I I certainly wish, Congressman, you were still in Congress, or you still can get into the Attorney General's chair, because you would absolutely find computer fraud that the IRS is engaged in on a daily basis, but for decades. And it needs to be it needs to be investigated and prosecuted. It's absolutely illegal, and that's why I didn't want to go along with it any longer.
Bitcoin Fixes Incentive Driven Systems
SPEAKER_08Twenty-eight years he has not filed income taxes, twice he's been investigated. No dice on doing anything about it, right? 28 years. But yet most people do what Jeff Booth, who's a Bitcoiner, says again. We can look at these systems and we know they're ripe with fraud. We look at these systems, we know that it's supposed to be voluntary, we just don't know how to unvolunteer, and we find ourselves stuck in this position of rage. Most people, this is Jeff Booth, most people are feeding back against the system that they said they hated and using the exact same money that they said they hated to increase the power of the state and the system over them. Bitcoin fixes this. When Donald Trump talks about getting rid of taxation, it's because Bitcoin becomes inevitable. It's like international internet cash that you can't stop a peer-to-peer transaction. Okay. And so things have to be revamped. The banking system as we know it, we played this yesterday, where Scott Bessant said, listen, we created the banking system as it stands today at Britain Woods. We could just have another Bretton Woods and change the way it is. And Jamie Diamond, who just a couple years ago was saying Bitcoin is rat poison and he was firing employees at Chase that were buying Bitcoin, all of a sudden now he's a completely flip-flopped. You know why? The inevitable is the inevitable. Enough people have stood up against the system. This is what I've said all the way back from season one. Your dollars vote louder, vote with your dollars, your eyes, your dollars, and your clicks. When you're using their dollars, right, and you're doing the incentive programs, you give them power. The same power that we saw Biden abuse, Obama abuse, even the Trump administration, you can make a lot of arguments that they abuse that power too. How do you change it? We move to a whole new system. And Jamie Dimon is now on board with this.
SPEAKER_34Blockchain is real. It's been around for quite a while, but now it's becoming more effective, more efficient because people are finding ways to do it faster and cheaper, permissioned or not permissioned. Smart contracts, I think, will probably be real.
SPEAKER_08Permission or not permission. That's the key. They're losing control, anyways. There's a new gold out there. It's called Bitcoin. And nations can interact with it. You and I can interact with it. I can interact with a nation state. And while everyone can see the transaction, nobody can stop it. You can't sanction it. You can't nuke all the nodes, unlike what Yang, you know, Professor Yang says you can do. And we have a new Fed secretary, Fed, Fed chairman that's probably going to be voted in here really soon, who is all on board with this. So here's from Lark Davis. He says the next Fed chair isn't your grandpa's central banker. Kevin Warsh just dropped a 69-page financial disclosure and it reads like a Silicon Cali, Silicon Valley pitch deck. He's got SpaceX stake, polymarket, crypto prediction markets, Ethereum development tools, Tinderly, Crypto FinTech, Lemon, Cash, and Stashpin, AI workforce platforms, robotic coffee bars, herpes vaccines, I don't know about that, and reversible mare contraceptives. Big question mark on that one. Okay. And a digital cloning platform, Delpha II. His net worth is over 100 million. He worked with Standy Druckenmiller and called Bitcoin the new gold for anyone under 40. That's the new Fed chair. Jamie Diamond says it's here to stay and it works. It's been around for a while. It's been proven. Donald Trump created a Bitcoin strategic reserve and considered it a critical asset. Other nations have been using it to bypass sanctions. Marco Rubio says in five years we won't even talk about sanctions anymore because we won't be able to do them. Our sanctions are going to be at the border when we can charge tariffs. Whole new planet is coming.
SPEAKER_25So we'll be charging them in Bitcoin.
SPEAKER_08Whether you filed yesterday or not, I'm not here on this show to tell you one way or the other. We just have to see it as it is. Taxation is not theft. You volunteered. Income tax is not lawful. They've created all kinds of ways to enforce it to punish you because your neighbors volunteered. Does that make sense? It's a reward to those who voluntarily comply, not because you, the one not filing, has committed any crime. Now, taxes are incredibly important in our system. And when we do our political remodel, we have to emphasize this. These taxes have to be well spent because going forward, and I don't know when the switch is going to get flipped, taxes will become real money through the Bitcoin system. It will become very real. So we can't piss it away. We can't piddle it away with so fraud and things like that because we can't just print more of it. There's only so much of that to go around, and it's going to be it's going to be precious to us. On another front, Tulsi Gabbard made criminal referrals to the DOJ against the fake Ukraine impeachment whistleblower, Eric Tiaramella. Now, four years ago, three, four years ago, if we said that name on a stream like this, our stream would probably drop. YouTube would remove the episode, right? Facebook would delete your account, Twitter would delete your account, couldn't even say the guy's name. Couldn't even say the guy's name. Even people like Tim Poole, who anytime this, because this topic was well talked about, the whistleblower. Okay, couldn't say who it was. Well, Eric Cheramella and the former Office of Investigator General for the ODNI, Michael Atkinson, have both been referred to the DOJ for prosecution. That entire Ukraine gate narrative was completely bull crap. Along with the Ukraine gate narrative that was completely bull crap, what were they covering up? They were covering up this along with other things. They wanted Trump out. Why? Because Trump out's changing everything. They wanted Trump out. John Solomon, this is this was reported a little bit while ago, but he was just recently talking about this. How Zelensky was on a phone call, a recorded phone call, talking about getting kickbacks through USAID.
Ukrainegate Referrals And USAID Claims
SPEAKER_20You heard about it over the course of the day. The United States government, the National Security Agency, intercepted conversations of President Zelensky's government in Ukraine in 2022, late 2022, conspiring with federal workers at the USAID to come up with a plan to take$200 million of USAID money. That is your money, folks, taxpayer money. We have the intercepts for the first time. Chelsea Gabbard's team was willing to declassify them. There is now an investigation underway, beginning with USAID, to look at who was involved, whether any crimes were committed, and if that is the case, to refer that to the FBI in the next few days. Those uh uh declassified documents up at justandnews.com. You can go check about it today. Members of Congress have been clamoring all day to get their hands on the documents. Uh, I expect Tulsi Gabbard to make a statement later tonight on where uh things are evolving in her investigation. But uh, we've gone from the era of weaponization where the primary tool was using prosecutors and FBI agents to disable Donald Trump and his followers and all the good people around him, to now potentially conspiring with foreign powers to have an impact on our elections. We have the Ukraine stuff this morning, and remember what we told you three weeks ago. Uh proof from the FBI that China sent thousands, tens of thousands of driver's licenses to the United States with fake names to get fake ballots to vote for Joe Biden in the 2020 election. Those aren't my words. Those are the words of the FBI informant in the FBI documents that we made public a few months ago. So China possibly conspiring with Joe Biden and the Democrats, and now possibly Ukraine. Two investigations underway. We're gonna keep you apprised of that right now.
SPEAKER_08Did you see how all that connected? Fake ballots, fake money, Ukraine. It's all connected. Trump is dismantling that entire network. Right out of the gate, it got rid of USAID. Remember Kamala Harris announced her campaign and all of a sudden she had a billion dollars in her campaign?
SPEAKER_27Uh-huh.
SPEAKER_08Really? Act Blue, we're not covering this today, but the House has renewed their subpoenas to Act Blue saying, hey, your own attorney said you were committing fraud with smurfing and stuff like that. This is all happening. This is all happening right now. We want accountability. Sounds to me like we're getting it. It's coming. It's coming. Now you could have come in on day one and throw the hammer down, but then you would have had all kinds of political capital spent and guy, you know, who knows all the people on the take. Because if they're doing it for Joe Biden, you don't think they were doing it for a senator here, Galego in Arizona, Mark Kelly in Arizona, and may probably even John Fetterman over in Pennsylvania. You know, all these guys that won these, you know, the two senators out of Georgia. Georgia, two Democrat senators, really? Come on. I thought the I thought the South was gonna rise again. What's going on here? You put some more plantation owners in power. Okay. So the whole thing is tied together. What can we do? We fix the money. We independently should adopt Bitcoin standards, get off the dollar, right? We should, you should seriously consider. Well, I'm not even gonna go there with the taxes, right? But whatever. Okay.
SPEAKER_25Be good citizens.
SPEAKER_08The whole system's changing, and Donald Trump is rewriting the board, setting us up for a good position going forward. Now, this ongoing conspiracy, in my opinion, is still ongoing. I I believe that Brian Cole Jr., who's in jail for the J6 pipe bomb deal on January 5th, is not the person. I think that there's still an ongoing cover up there. And I don't know, you know, I don't know Todd Blanche's complicity. I don't know if he's letting them dig a deep deeper hole. It's it's a Abhorrent to the American conscience that an innocent man would be sitting in prison. However, we have to recognize that a lot of soldiers have been sent overseas that die for nefarious causes. Right. It's part of the game. It's just an unfortunate part of the game, the things that we're called upon to endure. But yesterday, while simultaneously they're dismissing the charges against the oathkeepers and the Proud Boys for Seditious Conspiracy. Simultaneously, they also superseded in superseded did superseded ceding indictments on Brian Cole Jr.
SPEAKER_20Just a little bit ago, the man accused of planting the two January 6th pipe bombs, Brian Cole. He was charged with two new felony counts today. That is a significant escalation. He now faces a lot more legal jeopardy. The FBI continues to develop new evidence against him and uh all the details on those new felonies over at justice.com. Go check them out.
SPEAKER_08Yeah. So basically it allows him to escalate charges into like terrorism enhancements and stuff like that. It's it's a bad deal over there. Jocelyn Ballantyne is the lead prosecutor on that case. She's the same person who prosecuted General Flynn. She's the same person who prosecuted the Proud Boys, tried to get Enrique Antario to flip on Donald Trump, the whole thing. She's in charge of that case. Is she digging a deeper hole for herself and her deep state cronies? Is she keeping the conspiracy alive? I don't know. But I don't like, I don't like the way that smells at all. Right? So we still have a lot to fix for sure. Another thing that's been coming up more and more in the news, have you heard about these missing scientists?
SPEAKER_25Yes.
SPEAKER_08So we're up to 10 now. So this finally has gotten to the point where the public is concerned enough. Peter Ducy at Fox News asked Carolyn Levitt about this.
SPEAKER_24There are now 10 American scientists who have either gone missing or died since mid-2024. They all reportedly had access to classified nuclear or aerospace material. Is anybody investigating this to see if these things are connected?
SPEAKER_35I've seen the report, Peter. I haven't spoken to our relevant agencies about it. I will certainly do that and we'll get you an answer. Uh, if true, of course. That's definitely something I think this government and administration would deem work worth looking into. So let me do that for you.
SPEAKER_24There are now 10 American super curious about that.
SPEAKER_08Some people think that they're being killed and silenced. Some people think the government's scooping them up and putting them into witness protection. Some people think foreign adversaries are coming after them. I don't think we know.
SPEAKER_25Or they're working on a special project somewhere in a mountain.
Spokane Event Invite And Next Steps
SPEAKER_08Another Manhattan project. Could be. Yep. Yep. Could be. Pony Boy says some of Kamala's campaign money might have come from the missing hundred billion Zelensky said he'd never received. Absolutely. Could be 100 billion here, 200 billion there, another another scoop of money over here. Yeah. Well, it's like 100 billion between 100 billion dollars that Zelensky's just like, I never got it. Do you remember when he had one of his like staff members that was trying to get over the border and they had like gold bars and cash? It was like this massive amount of stuff. Like, geez Louise. Oh my goodness. Crazy. All right, guys. It is time for us to jump over into private. Thank you so much for joining us today. Love having you here so much. Again, don't forget, April 25th, I am going to be in Spokane with the 1776live.us team. Please, if you're anywhere near Spokane, go to 1776live.us. Get tickets. They're$49. It will be well worth it. I promise, you will not walk away feeling like you wasted your money. It's going to be amazing. So go there. We're going to be talking about how you can be the change you want to see in the world. We'll be covering personal sovereignty. We'll be covering equity. We'll be covering how to use trust to project your wealth into the future and protect your assets from creditors, et cetera, et cetera. We'll be talking about how to get out of all of your commercial debt, discharging credit cards. We'll be talking about the Bitcoin standard and how to utilize that as well as probably we'll touch on other tokenized assets that you can get a hold of that are going to be very advantageous to you. We're also going to be talking about ghost phones, right? How to get off the surveillance network using Linux-based machines and things like that. I have a ghost laptop. I love it. I need to use it more. I'm kind of stuck with this Apple because of the way we do the show and all the way all my stuff, but I can I can make the premises. I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it. I just need a day to do it. I got to move stuff over onto that computer. But ghost phones, right? How to go, how to do systems, uh phones that are not being constantly tracked by Google, Apple, Facebook, and all the different big, huge tech companies that track your every moon. They know when you go to the bathroom, they know what your browser history is, they know everything. Ghost phones eliminate a huge chunk of that, right? Huge chunk of that. So we're going to be, we're going to have uh Caleb from Mark 37 there, and they and they make those phones. So you don't have to do it yourself. You can just buy it from them. You can buy a used, you know, Android-based phone, and they're amazing. I've seen a couple of them. They're awesome. I'm planning on getting one here real shortly. So all of that's going to be covered at that event in Spokane. And of course, today's Thursday, and every Thursday, we do our introductory meeting for people who are interested in 76live.us. So go to 1776live.us and register for today's Ignite presentation. You already put it in there. You don't have to put it in there.
SPEAKER_25I put 1775.
SPEAKER_08You're so stuck on coffee. 1776, not 1775. All right. So we're going to jump over to private and we're going to hear from J6 political prisoner Joe Biggs talking about the impact that this dismissed with prejudice on their case is going to have. Now remember, he was a veteran. He's been denied his VA benefits, his pension, all of his service awards. He's a decorated military veteran. Okay, so we're going to he we're going to hear from him. And then we're going to hear some really interesting stuff from Lauren Bobbert. She's going after the Anthony Wiener laptop with that famous life insurance folder that had a quote, frazzle drip video in it. Oh. She's taking that very seriously. And remember, she asked Hillary Clinton about that in the deposition, which probably gives her enough reason to go get the subpoena to get that laptop and expose that. Big deal. Okay. The next thing is she's also going to be talking about the CIA's NK Ultra program. She's questioning if the program is still continuing. Remember, this is the program that was about brainwashing, compartmentalization. You can go read the book Transformation of America by Kathy O'Brien that talks about this program. We believe that they're still doing the program. They never said they were going to stop. Psychological control. Psychological control. And now, guess how they do it? They do it through your social media in a big way. And that again, another reason why you want to go onto the ghost network and use ghost phones and ghost computers.
SPEAKER_25Yeah, it's weird how your feed can feel personalized, isn't it? Weird.
SPEAKER_08Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER_25Exactly.
SPEAKER_08Okay, guys. So we're going to be jumping over into a private stream. Again, we have the solutions. Political remodel is underway. If you're interested in being a part of that, no matter where you're at, I've had quite a few people reach out to me and want to get that document on the game plan on exactly how to do it. So please, please, please get involved. It's going to become a bigger and bigger part of what we the peasants have to do, just like Clarence Thomas said, to take back our country. This country belongs to us. It doesn't belong to them. Who's them? Everyone who's not us. All right, guys. Thank you so much. We'll talk to you the public people again tomorrow. And the rest of you will talk to you today. Uh we'll talk to you in just a few seconds.
SPEAKER_36All right.
SPEAKER_08Okay, so this is Joe Biggs, and he's on InfoWars, and he's talking about basically the impact of this dismissal. I mean, this is like a wave that's gonna happen for these guys, and I'm so happy for them. Now, one of the things he says in here is about getting compensated$10,000 today. I don't think that's automatic. I think they're gonna have to go and like do a process, but that's the statutory amount that is designated when you're when you're imprisoned illegally by our government.
SPEAKER_18I have coming to me now. I have four years at 100% disability back pay coming to me. Um, the full restoration of my rights um as a as a military veteran with honors, you know, purple heart.
SPEAKER_04Get your medals back as well, right? Yep. Everything.
SPEAKER_18Um access to the VA for the first time I can go see a dentist in five years. Yeah. I wouldn't want to be that person. But you know, I've getting that money guaranteed then, now that it's been vacated and they've dismissed it based on the fact that they said that there was so much negligence and so much corruption in the prosecution of us, uh, it's ten thousand dollars a day for illegal uh detain one detainment. So ten thousand dollars a day times four years, uh, you get that as well. We've been without a win for a while. And it's surprising. You know, what people aren't gonna understand uh or not gonna believe is you know, Harme Dylan, uh she reached out to Enrique, said something's coming down the pipe tomorrow. You guys are gonna be very happy. Then we get that news, and she said the person to think for this all was Todd Blanch, that he actually is the one that pushed it through. Wow.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, uh and that actually is very surprising because he seemed like you know, anybody who spoke out against anything, he he didn't, you know, he's already he's already publicly spoken out against Alex Jones. Um but it's I guess Pam Bondi was holding this up at the end of the day. She was the one in the way saying, no, we're gonna we're just gonna leave these little tentacles uh stuck to these guys. So they have to go with this for the rest of their life because all they did was do what the president asked to go peacefully and patriotically go to the Capitol and let your voices be heard. And you know, for doing that, you got fired upon, you know, rubber bullets, there was tear gas, uh, it just turned into mayhem. And uh not to mention, we had what a black DoorDash driver place two bombs, right? Isn't that what the government also said? So, I mean, all this craziness that has been going on, and finally you do get some real, you're not not necessarily getting restitution, but you're getting to start it at zero instead of being you know six miles back at starting line.
SPEAKER_18Well, so so you know, I I I'm pretty sure I told you this a while back, but I I guess maybe six months ago, seven months ago, uh the VA office in DC called me, and it was the secretary of the secretary of the VA, Doug Collins, and she goes, He'd like to talk to you. We saw you had some complaints online about you know, you know, your benefits and things like that. So she passes me through and he tells me, He goes, Look, without a pardon, there's nothing I can do, you can't go to the VA. I'm sorry, you're not gonna get paid. He goes, you know, if by miracle you, you know, everything gets vacated like it would happen yesterday, um, then you will get back paid. So this is what I have coming to me now. I have four years at 100% disability back pay coming to me. Um, the full restoration of my rights um as a as a military veteran with honors, you know, purple heart.
SPEAKER_04Give your medals back as well, right? Yep, everything.
SPEAKER_18Um, access to the VA for the first time I can go see a dentist in five years. Yeah. I wouldn't want to be that person. But, you know, I've getting that money guaranteed then now that it's been vacated and they've dismissed it based on the fact that they said that there was so much negligence and so much corruption in the prosecution of us, uh, it's ten thousand dollars a day for illegal uh detainment. So ten thousand dollars a day times four years, uh, you get that as well. Then you get uh uh other stuff, a few other things I've got to look into. But then also we are suing the DOJ for 200 million. Uh and it's weird because the day before yesterday, before we got the good news, uh the new judge over our civil case says that our case has a merit, and we haven't heard that before. You know, it's always been juking and jiving. So I think she knew what was about to happen, but this completely gives us the ability to win that. And things are gonna look good.
SPEAKER_05You know, I'm it sounds like they're trying to go for a uh a uh a settlement is what this is. It looks like it's a hey, y'all drop the charges, and that's probably what they're gonna try to do. So y'all drop the charges, we're giving you this olive branch, but you know, I think go go with what you can uh what you can get and what you can prove, especially with the way this whole thing was railroaded from start to finish, the demonization afterwards, the continued demonization by the press, uh, you know, as the Proud Boys who were just a group who was, you know, defending people's right to have speech in this world, uh because the cops weren't doing their job. That's why the Proud Boys actually came into being essentially.
SPEAKER_18I mean, we're we're literally we're we we were formed in tear gas, you know. Like we we saw these protests being these protesters, uh, you know, or Trump supporters or whatever being attacked uh simply for wanting to hear, you know, Donald Trump go speak at an event back in 2015-16. And we saw people being sucker punched and attacked at restaurants with their children and eggs thrown at them and and uh you know ganged up on and and beat up in parking lots. And you know, we said, you know what, we're able-bodied men, uh, we love this country, and we believe that everyone should have the right to go peacefully assemble and listen to a potential presidential candidate speak and see what he has to say and what he has to offer. So, you know, in their chaos, we were born. I want to make a massive announcement, right?
SPEAKER_20Massive announcement.
SPEAKER_08I don't support Trump anymore. Hey, breaking news former Democrat at Virginia Lieutenant Governor Justin Fairfax shoots and kills his wife before taking his own life.
SPEAKER_25Oh uh I missed the screen, but that's okay.
A Shocking Breaking News Update
SPEAKER_08Oh well, here we go. There you go. Look at that.
SPEAKER_25Okay.
Boebert Targets The Weiner Laptop
SPEAKER_08Wow. Former Virginia Lieutenant Governor Justin Fairfax shoots and kills his wife before taking his own life. Yikes. Yikes, wonder what that was all about. Okay, so I told you we were gonna be looking into MK Ultra and Frazzle Drip. So here's Lone Bobert on with Benny Johnson talking about how she is going after that frazzle drip video. She wants to know the truth about it.
SPEAKER_23I actually um was working on getting the Anthony Meener laptop because I want to see the files that are on this. And um, while we still had attorney general Pam Bondi, she had sent me over to the FBI, and um, there is no active search warrant on that computer. And so they are saying that I am unable to view it without a new search warrant. And there has to be new information. I think these Epstein files give us new information to look into the X into the Anthony Wiener laptop. I absolutely want to know um uh uh what was on there, what was the secret folder that was titled Life Insurance um that had uh frazzled.rip where people get the frazzled rip story from. Um, I want to see this video. You know, if it's totally fake, if it's not there, I'll come out and say it. I want to see what people are talking about. These things don't just originate out of nowhere. Um, and uh so if it if it means um issuing uh a subpoena from the oversight committee to get my hands on this laptop, then that's what I will do. Uh if there are any, if there's anything linking the Anthony Wiener laptop um to the Epstein files, I will use that to get another search warrant, but I'm getting my hands on this laptop and looking to see what was in it. Um, you know, I mean, it's it's been said that um FBI agents who went in and viewed this laptop, um, many of them are not alive anymore. Uh and so, I mean, what what is it with this laptop? Um uh apparently um, you know, it's been said that uh that many have committed suicide, um, that it was so um disturbing. But also a lot of people around Hillary Clinton and her cohort seem to commit suicide oddly.
SPEAKER_09There's a whole Wikipedia page. Yes, that's right. Uh there's a lot to unpack there, Congresswoman. So uh why? Why why hasn't anybody seen what's on this laptop? Uh and what you know, what do you expect to find?
SPEAKER_23Well, I think originally members of Congress were afraid of it. They were called conspiracy theorists, and uh, you know, and you know, there was obviously the um the man who went into comet ping pong pizza and open fire, um, unacceptable. And so people just want to stay away. I don't want to be associated with it. I'd rather not know. I'm just going to believe the narrative and run with that. I have an election to win. Um, you know, no need to actually dig into something if it's going to cost me my seat and and my place in office. Uh, so I I want to see it. I I want to know what's on there and investigate it. Um, there are many things that we still need to investigate.
SPEAKER_08Yeah, I want to know too. Turns out Pizzagate might be real. How wild would that be? How wild would that be? Now, I'm not gonna play it. There's a person who was put under deposition that may or may not have seen the video. At least he reported on it. He describes what's in it. It's horrible.
SPEAKER_26Horrible.
MKUltra, Patsies, And Transparency
SPEAKER_08So we'll let Lil Borber deal with that. And uh, if it's real, Hillary Clinton deserves a you know, life sentence and Uma Aberdeen, who's married to Alex Soros right now. So, in addition to that, she's also going to find out more about the MK Ultra program.
SPEAKER_23Anna uh Paulina Luna, she chairs um our uh declassification task force. Uh, she says the next thing we're bringing up is MK Ultra. Let's go. Uh, you know, I I we we have brought in members of the CIA in the past before Congress um regarding MK Ultra. And we kind of just tapped them on the wrist and said, okay, please don't do that anymore. But there was nothing to actually enforce it. So um, is this still a program? Is this still going on? There are so many things that people do run with because there are no answers. And and so maybe it's grown bigger than it should because there's no transparency. I want to bring transparency.
SPEAKER_09You bring up a great point because we were told there's nothing in the F-Seam files, but there's so much in the F-Steam files, actually, as somebody who's gone through thousands of them, and tens of thousands, there's there's a lot. There's so much there. And we were lied to is that move along, there's nothing there. Yeah. That's not true. I think the same thing has happened with Anthony Wiener's laptop. And the more that you follow the story, his wife divorcing him, the the Democrat Party deep fixing the guy, right? Putting him in jail, like doing everything they possibly can to get rid of him. As far as I know, he's still alive. There's there's clearly there's some type of cover-up going on there. Um, so you're saying you're gonna get it. You're saying you're gonna subpoena and get it.
SPEAKER_23Uh I'm working every angle to get my hands on that laptop. Absolutely.
SPEAKER_09And FBI has it, I didn't actually know who has it. So the FBI has it.
SPEAKER_23Yes. The FBI um still has it, but there is no active search warrant, so no one can open it up and turn it on. Um, you know, maybe if it was, you know, Pfizeb, we're just, you know, warrantless buying on American citizens, you know, we could we could use that. But um uh for Anthony Wiener's laptop, it's it's closed.
SPEAKER_09So yeah, I yeah, I I can't not ask a follow-up on the MK Ultra uh like request. So so that's that's new. This is of course a CIA mind control program, or like I I guess that's the reductive way of talking about it. Yes. Um what do you expect to find there? They've admitted to this, just in case you're thinking we've gone completely over the edge. No, the CIA has said many times that this is real.
unknownCorrect.
SPEAKER_09Um, there doesn't seem to be any explanation. I'll go there, Congresswoman. There doesn't seem to be any explanation for the guy who shot up Trump. You know, we've gotten no answers on like what the hell was going on there. And I'm not satisfied with that. Yeah. And and and like a lot of people, I guess to your point, it it does beg the question what are these people doing? Like who's controlling them? Like what's happening here? Maybe it is just a random act of violence. Sure doesn't seem to be the way that normal people behave, like at all.
SPEAKER_23Especially when there is no information to follow. I mean, look how many years it took uh for us to get information on GFK and that assassination and um and and RFK. I this is, I mean, these these are things that I I believe there was a a deeper um meaning behind. Um, and and that the government was absolutely involved in this. And is MKUltra a factor? Are are there passies? I I don't know. Um, I don't have those answers, but these are the answers that I want. But it's amazing that the the entire federal government apparatus still believes that the American people are too dumb to know the truth. Like that is the most insulting part of our government. And if that doesn't infuriate you and make you want to do something about it, not violently, um, but like what I'm doing. I stood up and ran ran for office. I said, I want to be a part of the solution, I want to be the change, I want answers, I want to bring transparency. I hated my government that much that I wanted to step up and try to fix it. And um, and and to see that so many parts of the government um are just like, no, no, you you peasants, you American citizens, sit down, you can't handle the truth. It's very insulting. And uh I I want to bring the truth to the people.
SPEAKER_09Just just in closing here, what what do you expect to find? Could you like maybe lay the groundwork? Because clearly, like clearly progress has been made on the UAP front and the Epstein front, and it took a lot of fighting, and it's commendable. What do you expect to find with MK Ultra?
SPEAKER_23I well, I really want to see if this program is uh still being used and what they're used. I mean, back uh uh I mean decades and decades ago, uh, you know, there were different drugs, LST and and whatnot. Um I we have very different drugs nowadays. Uh is there a different kind of program? Um, and you know, is it just experimental? Has it actually been put to practice? Um and I I want to see um if there was ever a hard line to shut it down. From what I see in the congressional hearings, there was not. It was just, oh, okay, thanks for telling us the truth. And uh, and you know, please just don't do it anymore. Um, and you maybe we need to have legislation that actually puts a stop to this. But maybe the CIA is um too big uh to listen to Congress at this point.
SPEAKER_09A government above the government, right? These are the right questions.
SPEAKER_08What do you think about that, Ron? What do you think the possibility that the two Trump assassins were MK Ultra victims?
SPEAKER_25Um I assumed they were.
SPEAKER_08That is a conspiracy show after all. Yeah, you know, especially Thomas Crooks. He's the one that I definitely am like, that one doesn't make a lot of sense. It also doesn't make a lot of sense that both these guys were in BlackRock commercials. You know, you start to kind of go, this is a little weird. Yeah. So yeah, Thomas Crooks is the one definitely, you know, if not the shooter himself, a patsy for the shooter. Um, I I wonder I with Brian Cole, I don't know. He's a patsy in this. Oh, I know, I mean, I believe he's a patsy, clearly. I don't know if he's an MK Ultra victim in it. I get it as an MK Ultra victim.
SPEAKER_27Right.
SPEAKER_08But clearly not being a Patsy. Gosh, you know, I I really wonder what's going to happen with his prosecution. But the MK Ultra thing, one of the things that's presented by Kathy O'Brien after the book is that MK Ultra, once they perfected the method of brainwashing, basically, they started to do it over social media, television. It's that repetitive nature of things and pain, right? When you create pain, you create kind of a cognitive dissonance and you uh you you run from the pain. That's human nature. Uh and so it's really, really fascinating. All right, guys, I know that's kind of some deep conspiracy stuff, Razzle Drup and MK Ultra, but uh it's real. That's the crazy thing about it. It's real. Our government electroshocked, uh, did sex abuse, did all kinds of stuff uh on American citizens uh back in the 60s, 70s, and whenever, and there was no clear line saying they would stop. Uh it was the same thing with Operation Mockingbird, uh putting CIA agents in the media. They admitted it, they talked about it, and they never said they were gonna stop.
SPEAKER_25So they did it in the 60s, 70s, and yesterday.
SPEAKER_08Yesterday, yeah, and today when you turn on today. Exactly. And that's why we as peasants, listen, we just want to hear from the decision makers, we want to hear from good analysis, and we just take it for what it is, right? Tucker Carlson can provide great information on another day, and he could be psy-uffing you on the next. And we try to find those little nuggets, those little phrases they say that kind of give the game away. So, all right, guys, thank you so much for joining us today. We will talk to you again tomorrow. Bye.
SPEAKER_16What in the make lives in that castle over there? I'm 37. What? I'm 37. I'm not old. Well, I can't just call you mad. 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 I object to is he 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. 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? But 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 in the game. That's what it's all about. If only people would. Please, please good people. I am in haste. Who lives in that castle? No one lives there. Then who is your lord? We don't have a lord. What? I told you. We're 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 quats. I order you to be quacked. 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. Be quite 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! Now we see the violence inherent in the system! Help, help! I'm being repressed, bloody peasant! Oh, what a giveaway! Did you hear that? Did you hear that, eh? That's what I'm on about. Do you see repressing me? You saw it, didn't you?
