A 49-hour coast to coast drive in a Jeep sounds like a stunt until you realize what it forces you to see: the farms, highways, ports, and small towns that make the country work, plus the frustration people feel when it seems like the “little guys” always get squeezed. We start with the road trip and land on a bigger question: who actually built America, and who’s making decisions that shape everyday life?

From there we track the week’s chaos across politics and the West: a massive warehouse fire that immediately raises eyebrows, violent unrest in Belfast tied to immigration and public safety, and the growing sense that leaders label dissent “extremism” instead of fixing the underlying problems. We also dig into election integrity and legitimacy, including ActBlue donation allegations, a federal judge blocking Texas action, and why California’s slow mail-in ballot counting, signature curing, and ballot harvesting rules keep torching public trust. We play clips, argue with the “no evidence” refrain, and talk about what transparency would actually look like.

We close with the practical side of power: debanking and why losing access to financial rails can end a life or business fast, plus why the Clarity Act, stablecoins, and Bitcoin self-custody keep coming up as an alternative. If you care about election security, civil liberties, financial freedom, and what comes next for the US, this one connects the dots.

Cold Open And Peasants Welcome

SPEAKER_31

And then they went to the green!

SPEAKER_10

Do you know what she had?

SPEAKER_21

Let me cake.

SPEAKER_38

We're getting screwed, man. Every time we turn around, we're getting screwed. Well, the revolution's gonna be true podcasting for sure. It's the little guys, the little guys that take the money of everything. It's gonna be peasants, ma'am. We're just peasants. Every one of us. You watch those old movies, you see the peasants in the background with the kings and kings walking around. We're those people. We're those people. Good morning, peasants!

Jeep Cannonball Across America

SPEAKER_38

Welcome to another episode of The Peasants Perspective. I was done for a week. Did you miss me? Yes. I got a lot of text messages, emails. Well, I guess I don't think I got any emails. A couple phone calls, people going, You gotta have a show today. It's like, no, I'm driving across the country in a Jeep. It's all over the road. Oh my goodness, dude. Kansas has got to be the most boring place on the planet. Holy smokes. Entire country has absolutely blighted itself with windmills.

SPEAKER_20

How's the corn doing?

SPEAKER_38

It's getting tall. It's about six feet tall in Kentucky. Sarah Sings. Good morning, Sarah Sings. I wanted so badly to cut through Oklahoma, but once I actually started looking at the map and planning my route, I realized this is a freaking gigantic country and I'm driving coast to coast from the from the beaches of Florida to the beaches of Washington. I I made the trip in exactly 49 hours of driving time. It took me about four days. I got I got just shy of like four days of start to finish.

SPEAKER_20

So that's like a cannonball record.

SPEAKER_38

Dude, it was rough. It was rough. So you want to hear my assessment of the country?

SPEAKER_20

Yes.

SPEAKER_38

Florida, very interesting. Pretty flat. Every piece of body, every piece of water you look at, you wonder if there's alligators in it.

SPEAKER_20

Yeah.

SPEAKER_38

Um, very interesting. I drove up the west coast and it's pretty populated going up the west coast. Georgia kind of looked like North Florida, no surprise there. Northern Georgia kind of looked like Kentucky from Tennessee, no surprise there, right? Uh lots of rolling hills. It was nice. My daughter was like, I thought Georgia was a lot of swamps. I'm like, well, they have swamps, but no, it's a lot of rolling hills.

SPEAKER_20

It's the valleys.

SPEAKER_38

Kentucky or Tennessee was gorgeous. Have you ever been to Chattanooga, Tennessee?

SPEAKER_20

I have not.

SPEAKER_38

Oh, very pretty. Very pretty. Now I drove, you know, north and south, kind of through Tennessee. Not a lot of farms. It was mostly forest and mountains and cliffs and stuff like that. Very pretty. Kentucky, pretty cool. Kentucky was a lot like Tennessee. Very green. It was actually shocking. I'm I'm an Intermountain West kid, right? So you go to the go to the mountains or you go to the Pacific Northwest to see the trees. And so to drive through Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and it was like trees, trees, trees, trees, trees. Illinois, stupid. I don't like Governor Pritzker, so I just didn't like Illinois at all in general. But uh Illinois was tainted with your bias. It was tainted with my bias, exactly. And the gas was a dollar more expensive in every new state that you drove through. That was annoying. Yeah. You go from 350 to 450 just based on the the governor of the state, and it was really obnoxious. Terrac says, uh Red the Rosary Daily says it's Friday and it's sunny Friday in Encanitas. Oh that's nice. Ser Singh says, Yes, John Atakis was able to get on you on my screen. Oh, uh John Otakis has a Tesla now. Oh so he's driving hands-free. It's I got to ride in it. I stopped in Boise for just a moment, spent an hour with him, went to dinner, did the auto drive Tesla thing. Holy smokes, Ron. It's trippy. It's like sitting in a spaceship. It's pretty cool. Oklahoma is in the middle of nowhere, too. Yeah, you should see Kansas. I think Oklahoma's connected to Kansas. So yeah, Pony Boy, peasants, we meet again. Good morning, Pony Boy. Glad to have you, Carlitz. Welcome back, Taylor and Ron. Thank you so much. Okay, so then I get through Illinois and I make it to so my first night, I go from Satellite Beach, Florida, and I made it all the way to just barely outside of St. Louis, just across the border from St. Louis.

SPEAKER_20

That is a hall.

SPEAKER_38

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I made it to St. Louis. Second day I made it to Denver. Third day, I made it to Le Grand, Oregon, and then I made it home yesterday just a little bit afternoon.

SPEAKER_20

Le Grand. Now that's a destination.

SPEAKER_38

Yes, it is. So I do have to say I lucked out on the hotel rooms. I had comfortable beds every night. That was nice. But uh, so St. Louis. St. Louis was uh a lot of brick buildings. It's kind of you could just tell it was an older city. Kansas City is a little bit more sprawling. Uh the drive in Missouri, I thought Missouri, you know, that drive between St. Louis and Kansas City was going to be kind of more plains and desert. No, it was really green, lots of big farmland. The further west you went, the bigger the farms got, right? In Georgia, you'd see a farm 40 acres, 20 acres. Uh, by the time you get to Kentucky, it was kind of the same thing. I didn't see any farms in Tennessee at all, really. But by the time it was Missouri, the farms got bigger and bigger. By the time you got to Kansas, that whole state is just a farm. That whole state is just one big field of grass. Uh, I thought Kansas was going to be totally flat. Like, I thought I was gonna get the dumb and dumber experience. Like, that jump Denver is full of crap moment, right? No, it was it's kind of just slow, small, rolling hills. Dude, the the windmills have ruined the landscape. Oh, I hundreds of thousands of windmills. Now, Kansas had a windstorm coming through. I had a crosswind the whole way, and that's when the ride got to be crappy. Crappy. Because it was I'm driving a Jeep. Uh I don't know if you saw the video sale. Dude, I don't know if you saw the video circulating on social media, but a cow is more aerodynamic than a Jeep. Okay, so I was just bouncing all over the road. Uh, Colorado roads suck. Suck. Colorado cannot draw a straight line. Their roads are like this and like this. Like their roads suck.

SPEAKER_20

Just making sure you stay awake.

SPEAKER_38

Oh my goodness. Horrible. Jumping up into Wyoming. So by the time I got to Denver, I've made that trip before. Right? I've been from I've driven those roads. So Denver cut north up through Laramie, went through Wyoming. Then I had more wind. I thought Kansas. The drive through Kansas and eastern Colorado was bad with the wind.

SPEAKER_20

Wyoming's generally the windiest. Holy smokes. And it's Wyoming is one of the states that I would love to move to, except for the wind.

SPEAKER_38

Yeah. Well, I I was and I was driving straight into it. So the crosswind was bad. The driving straight into it, my little Jeep was like the engine that could. It was like 5,000 RPM to go to the speed limit. They actually closed the highway to non-low profile cars and vehicles under 65,000 gross vehicles. Oh wow. So I in Kansas, I watched a Jeep crab walk down the road. His wheels were cranked so hard, he was basically like making a lot of people. So then I got you know Utah, Ogden, or or Oram area, Ogden, excuse me, Ogden, headed north. I've made this trip a thousand times, folks. I've been between Salt Lake and Boise a million times.

SPEAKER_21

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_38

And driving up through Tremont and Schweitzer's Pass, then the wind, I didn't know where the wind was the worst. I had two days of non-stop headwinds, and that was pretty rough too. And that that was like the kind of wind I chased my hat three times across gas station parking lots. Like that's how bad the wind was. Now I have to say this as well. The Jeep gets about 20 miles to the count. Up up till Kansas City, I got 20 miles to the count. After that, I got 12. I was stopping for gas. So like it was, I was like, this is a racket. They know the wind is here. They're charging the extra gas for fuel for gas. It was rough. Uh that was insane. And then and then from Le Grand on, it was gorgeous because I got up early in the morning. No wind. Well, it wasn't gorgeous. It was dude. Idaho and what western eastern Wyoming after driving through the south is like no wonder the settlers didn't stop till they got to the coast. Why would you want to stop here? Uh Markins says, hello from Wisconsin. Deplorable D says, good morning, Patriots. I'm glad you're I'm glad you're with us. Did you go through Vanage? Vanage, Vanage where.

SPEAKER_20

Oh, that's where they farm rocks in eastern Washington.

SPEAKER_38

You know, Kansas was interesting because it was just this big grass field, man. It was just grass as far as you could see. I I can't say enough bad things about Kansas. So I don't know if we have any Kansas listeners. I'm sure we do. But I was like the crosswind was really getting to me.

SPEAKER_20

Most of my family has been, you know, either from or through Kansas, and you're not hurting my feelings.

SPEAKER_38

Well, I'm glad they made it here. Wow. Uh, I was up in Wisconsin in the driftless area. That was really gorgeous. One of the most gorgeous places I've seen. So that was fun. And yes, yes, I did. I stopped at Bucky's. Bucky's made two Bucky stops on the trip. That was kind of fun. Got my kids awesome t-shirts. So, all right, you guys, enough bloviating about me and my last week. And I I intended to like get to the hotel. I had this idea that I was gonna somehow make it from Florida to the Pacific Northwest to Seattle in uh four days, and I was gonna be able to pull over, do the podcast. No, I knew that wasn't gonna happen. I was driving from 6:30, 7 a.m. Yeah till 10 o'clock at night. You're dedicated every day. I mean, yeah, when I realized when people were like, you know, usually that trip takes about eight days, I'm like, I don't have eight days to make this trip.

Simultaneous Sip And Trump Soundbite

SPEAKER_38

Anyways, all right, you guys came here for the simultaneous sip. And so join us now for the simultaneous sip, and all you need is a cup or a mug, a glass, a tank or a chalice of stein, a canteen jug, or flask, a vessel of any kind, and fill it with your favorite liquid. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day as we listen to Donald Trump talk about who actually built this country, and the simultaneous sip starts right now.

SPEAKER_01

Another example if you bring in these everyday Americans into the White House and listening to them. How important is it for you to listen to everyday Americans because they're policy making on a future?

SPEAKER_27

These people built the country. Not the complainers, the complainers didn't build the country. These people built the country, whether it's fishermen or farmers or anything else. Me, guys like me, they built the country. They're always complaining, complaining, built anything, they couldn't build anything. Somalia, all these people came in from Somalia and ripped off our system. She came in the brothers, that wonderful. She talks about the constitution of the United States. She comes from Somalia. They don't have people that run around showing each other, and she comes and calls us. I don't like it. These people don't like it. I can just make this all the time. She tells us she comes from a place with without anything. Without anything. Probably among the worst countries in the world. The Constitution of the United States protects me. She shouldn't be protected. She honestly should be thrown out of the country. She's corrupt. And uh most of the people that came in are corrupt, and the whole voting system is corrupt in Minnesota. I I won Minnesota three times, easily. I won almost every county, but they didn't give it to me. Corrupt system, very corrupt state. The governor's terrible, the attorney general is terrible. They're all very corrupt people.

SPEAKER_37

I love it.

SPEAKER_20

He shouldn't claim in blue states now. Trump's Hillsot. Trump's Hill hand Omar impersonation is spot on.

SPEAKER_38

Minnesota hasn't gone rad red since like the 70s. He's like, I want it, I want it three times. No, that was the impression I had driving across the country. I was like, this country is a farm. This country is a lot of people who have worked really hard to settle this country. You know, when I when I was driving through um where was oh, I was up in Wisconsin in the Driftless area, which is very green and vegetated. And you know, you look at everywhere that a farmer's field stops, a forest begins. And you look at that, and it's the same thing here. It's the same thing here. Like there's, you know, you look at your field and you're like, there's zero chance this wasn't a forest where we're sitting right now.

SPEAKER_20

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_38

But at some point, at some point, somebody fell the tree, pulled the stump, graded the land, like they created a field or a pasture or a farm out of hard forest, or in some areas, you know, they pulled all the rocks off the ground so they could finally till the ground and get it to produce. There has been an untold amount of sweat and labor and hard work that has happened in this country in the last two centuries to settle this land and to turn it into something great. And that didn't happen by politicians sitting behind desks. That that happened by the sweat and labor of we the people.

SPEAKER_20

Well, we had this little thing called the Dust Bowl in America. Yeah, you know, all that dust, that all that dust was created from all the farmers doing a lot of elbow work, a lot of elbow work. Yeah.

SPEAKER_38

When I was in the Dreckless area, I asked the guy that was with me, Markin. In fact, here he is on the shelf. I was like, Markin, I'm looking at this field. I'm like, do you think they do you think this was forested? Like, do you think that they cleared this? Because I mean, I I've cleared a lot of land, right? As an excavator, I've cleared a lot of land, and it's a lot of work with an excavator. So when I see like large fields like that, you know, in the middle of a forest and there's a 40-acre farm, I'm like, do you know how many mules and like it is not a small feat to pull it?

SPEAKER_20

No, it's definitely its own light item on a construction cost estimate.

SPEAKER_38

Oh my goodness. Anyways, we built the country. That's the point. And I really appreciate that Donald Trump recognizes that. I really appreciate that Donald Trump recognizes that, as opposed to Barack Obama who goes, you didn't build that. You didn't build that. You know, it's like, no, we did build that, trust me. And some of the things that we have built have actually caught fire and started to burn down

Mega Warehouse Fire Raises Questions

SPEAKER_38

this week. Did you hear about this? Up ballot, big warehouse fire? No. Yeah, big warehouse fire. Now, I haven't confirmed what warehouse this is, but there was another warehouse fire that was fairly significant down in one of my old towns that I used to live in, Tracy, California. I used to live here, Tracy, California. I know exactly where this is. And a the country's largest medical supply warehouse all caught on fire. You should see the aerial footage. Unbelievable. Unbelievable here.

SPEAKER_20

Look at look at all those shit.

SPEAKER_38

Torched, man.

SPEAKER_20

Is this real?

SPEAKER_38

Yeah, this was yesterday.

SPEAKER_20

Oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_38

Look at that. These are fire. Tracy, California. Mega warehouse. Largest medical supply warehouse in the country.

SPEAKER_20

How did the whole thing catch on fire?

SPEAKER_38

Dude. You know.

SPEAKER_20

Oh. Is this one of those planned events?

SPEAKER_38

Come on. Come on. You know this wasn't someone Samsung cell phone catcher. This this had to be arson of some sort. Like you said, how did the whole thing catch fire? Oh, I don't know. The sprinkler supp the fire suppression system just failed.

SPEAKER_20

Like, yeah.

SPEAKER_38

Somebody turned it off. The only way to get a warehouse like that to go up on fire is an accelerant. Like there's no chance that the fire suppression system didn't catch that. I mean, that's just wow.

SPEAKER_20

Uh conspiracy theorist.

SPEAKER_38

Yeah. Pony boy, what's cool is to see Europeans coming here for the World Cup and appreciating everything about America. That is that is nice. That is really nice because we have problems in the West. Problems big time in the West.

Belfast Riots And Border Anger

SPEAKER_38

Did you hear what happened up in Ireland this weekend?

SPEAKER_20

No.

SPEAKER_38

Oh, come on, Ron. Where have you been? Sleeping in? Clearly sleeping in.

SPEAKER_20

Man, you're calling me out.

SPEAKER_38

Calling you out. So in Ireland, they we had the Henry Novak incident last two weeks ago, where a an immigrant who happens to be Sikh pulled out a knife and stabbed a young Englishman. And the young when the police arrived, the the the Sikh said, That man called me a racist slur. And so the police came over and arrested the gentleman who'd just been stabbed and told them, I think I've been stabbed. I can't breathe. I can't breathe. I can't breathe. I can't breathe. They put him in handcuffs, put him on the ground, and then he said, I can't breathe. I think I've been stabbed. And they said, No, I don't think you have. And they let him lay there and die in handcuffs.

SPEAKER_20

Well, was he bleeding?

SPEAKER_38

Uh internally. Yeah, internally. So he died. So that caused a lot of people to be pretty upset. It was like, hey, listen, this is like George Floyd in reverse here. What's what's the deal?

SPEAKER_20

What's up with the stabber?

SPEAKER_38

Oh, he got arrested. Okay. Right. But eventually, when they were like, hey, hey, wake up, kid, he's totally dead. The video is you're just looking at that going, police officers, what is wrong with you guys?

SPEAKER_21

What is wrong?

SPEAKER_38

Uh uh, yeah. Up in Ireland, it got even worse. An asylum seeker from Sudan who'd been there two days. How does it get worse? It gets worse, Ron. An asylum seeker. Okay. I can't play this video. Oh. I cannot play this video. I can't even watch it all the way through.

SPEAKER_16

Okay.

SPEAKER_38

An asylum seeker in the middle of Edinburgh, in the middle of town, grabs an old man who's a little bit mentally disabled. He's like one of the people that everybody in town knows because he's, you know, an older gentleman and kind of walks around and you know, but totally a nice guy.

SPEAKER_20

I don't know, like I don't like where this is going already.

SPEAKER_38

The Sudanese man cuts his eye out in the middle of the street and then proceeds to start to decapitate him. And he's sawing through his his spine. Sawing through his spine in his street. A woman grabs her camera and starts filming it, and a bystander goes and grabs a stick and starts smacking them and gets them off of him. Oh my god. This led to riots in Edinburgh. This is where the Catholics and the Protestants. I hope so. This is where the Catholics and the Protestants clash. This is back where they had the troubles, where there were lots of violence for years and years and years in Ireland, Northern Ireland. They lit up the immigrant community, burnt it, chased immigrants out of their homes. They're done with it. There's been mass protests in the streets. The police are deployed. It's overwhelming force against the police. I believe this is still going on. Here's a clip from a gentleman who called into a T to a TV show there talking about the Bell, excuse me, I said Edinburgh. It's Belfast.

SPEAKER_21

Okay.

SPEAKER_38

Uh totally wrong there. Belfast. This is a gentleman who's calling in. Keir Starmer got up and goes, yes, this was violent. And that man's been arrested and arraigned today to face justice. But the response to this, this is racist, this is all these horrible things. This is the feeling on the street. The people who actually built Ireland.

SPEAKER_08

I am sick to death of being told that anybody who stands up and says that is far right. It is common sense and nothing more. I I don't know how many people contacted this show in the first hour, but there was one voice note that stood out. And before Richard Tys, wherever you are, just pin back your logos. This was Rob.

SPEAKER_10

Morning, Jess. On my way to work, as normal. Listening to you talk about the thing that happened in Belfast last night, all the unrest. Well, yes, rightly, you shouldn't condone what happened. What else have people got to do? They're not listening. The political class are not listening. These people who are coming over here illegally, they're rapists, terrorists. They're coming over here. It's literally like putting a wolf in a sheep field. You have given them a target-rich environment. You haven't vetted them. You've done nothing. All you've done is jump them in a place where they can wreak havoc. Where they come from, guess what? There's no law. They can do what literally whatever they like. They come over here, lawyers, of course, tax power funded, they get a nice cookie home, running water, sky TV, gym membership, course passes. They can literally go where they want and create havoc. And when they do, the people that voicing them upon us, guess what? They say, Don't get upset, don't do anything. Don't go out and cause unrest. Well, tell you what, mate, stop reaping. Then you might not have to show it. Because this country is absolutely on the edge. They cannot take much more of people getting stabbed, raped, blown up. You name it, you've voiced it upon us for the last 24, 30 years. Ever since the police said, I'm gonna rub your noses in it. Well, guess what? What goes round comes round. And I think the political class has got a very, very, very big smack of. The nose coming.

SPEAKER_08

Six minutes past seven will say, right. Yeah.

SPEAKER_38

It's a big deal there. It's a big deal, right? It's ongoing. Um, you know, people like Elon Musk and others have said if you if you can't, if the politicians don't fix this now, this is going to be fought out in the streets and stuff like this. I mean, it happens over and over and over again. Kier Starmer was the general solicitor, the basically the prosecutor that was in charge that was covering up all those rape gangs. I mean, well, they're still ongoing, by the way. Absolutely horrible. And here's the thing: this is what what deplorable D says. She says they will fight, but you are ready, right? They're gonna fight the the this the immigrants and things like that. They have a way of life they want to defend as well. The question is, is whose way is gonna win, right? Who does this country really belong to? Driving across the country. I had this incredible awe for America, this incredible awe for the industry and the hard work and how we're all linked together. I mean, I took one road and just drove across the country. The interstate project alone is equivalent to the Great Pyramids. I mean, it is an absolute incredible thing that we did in the last century, right? Connecting our our huge continent, coast to coast.

SPEAKER_20

It's kind of hard to understand that because you can't stand back and look at it like you can the pyramids. You know, it's a it's a huge sprawling connect network.

SPEAKER_38

Oh, it's unbelievable. It's unbelievable, and it ties us all together. Our culture, the Western culture, is worth defending.

SPEAKER_06

So to everybody in the UK who rejects that idea, I'd encourage them to just keep on going. It's okay to want to defend your culture, it's okay to want to live in a safe neighborhood. It's okay to want your job to go to yourself and your neighbors and not to a stranger who you don't even know. It is reasonable for the people in Western societies to want to control who comes into their country and who doesn't.

SPEAKER_38

That's unbelievable. That's JD Vance. It's all I mean, really rough stuff

How Election Claims Connect Globally

SPEAKER_38

happening. And again, what does this all center on? This centers around elections, folks. What's happening geopolitically around the world, there are different themes and currents. There's the financial system, there's the elections, there's the culture war. All these themes interconnect. Laura Logan was on with Benny Johnson, and she was talking about one of the reasons why we're in Iran and Venezuela, and she connects it to the elections and even goes a step farther. She goes, the the fallout of all the stolen elections, at least 72 elections that Venezuela had their hands in, is affects things. Like, for example, why Spain, a NATO member, didn't lift a finger to help with Iran. Well, have you ever considered a lot of these countries that are just sitting back and not doing anything and are playing obstruction to the Western civilization might be countries that Venezuela overthrew?

SPEAKER_01

And I, with all due respect, I say this. The Trump administration went after Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela because they rightly knew they had worked for 12 years on an indictment on Nicolas Maduro, right? Venezuela was involved, directly involved in the theft of the 2020 election. They stole that election from President Trump, working with Iran, working with the CCP, working with others. We know a lot of the details because there is a Venezuelan, very senior Venezuelan, sitting in prison who was actually a witness, an eyewitness to the theft. But what President Trump's administration did not do is they did not go after all the other people in Maduro's administration who were involved in the theft of the 2020 election. You know what they did instead? They took the woman, Delcy Rodriguez, the vice president under Maduro, and they made her the president. And that is because, from what I understand from people dealing with this firsthand, that's because, among others, the intelligence agencies were convincing the president, oh, you can't risk, you know, having the regime collapse in Venezuela, that's gonna hurt you, and so on. Delcy Rodriguez and her brother Jorge Rodriguez, who presided over the theft of the 2020 election, are 100% complicit in the theft of elections in 72 countries worldwide. You want to know why President Trump doesn't get the support that he needs from a country like Spain? Because the cartel in Venezuela, the cartel that runs the country, cartel de los solos, they selected the Spanish prime minister. Why does America get all this heat from all over the world? Because the globalist, Marxist, Islamist alliance that that has these cartels as their army, they all work together. So we don't face one enemy. The election in LA, the corruption there, the corruption in the system, this isn't about one enemy. This is about all of America's enemies working together. And all of those illegal immigrants in that sanctuary state of California who not only distort California's representation in the House, but who also get they're on juries, so they're involved in the criminal justice system. I mean, all of these people, what they're doing is they are diminishing citizenship. They want to take your individual sovereignty and your national sovereignty, and they want to make it mean nothing. And that's what they're in the presence of doing, in the in the process of doing. And what did they do at the same time? They imported the most violent people from Venezuela's prisons. Do you see, Benny, how these things line up? You know, Smartmatic and Venezuela being involved in the theft of the election is only one part of it. Flooding the country. They're like the ultra-violent army, sort of the, you know, the the dumb guys that do all the violence for uh the Venezuelans. They literally were created by going into Venezuela's prisons and recruiting the most violent people and creating this organization that is a paramilitary force.

SPEAKER_38

This is something I've said many times, right? When I talk to Trende Agua members in prison, they're like, We're they're basically like the attitude, they're on deployment. Just like we send our soldiers to Afghanistan for 18 months. They're like, Yeah, we came to America, we do some violence. Our family's getting paid. Oh, we got caught. Okay, we do a we do a year or two, whatever it is in prison. It's just part of the deployment process, it's just part of the game. They know what to do, don't talk, don't say anything, take your plea deal, get in, get out, get it done, that kind of thing. Paramilitary organization.

SPEAKER_01

It is a violent, armed, trained, paramilitary force that was infiltrated into our towns and cities. And these are the people that are in front of the ICE detention centers and helping to fuel the protests. So you have them, they fight on every single front. Elections is one front, it's only one. And the idea that you can have a Marxist when Marxism has forced out 8 million Venezuelans, has failed people worldwide, has been responsible for the death of how many people worldwide, and we are still glorifying it and glamorizing it. And where does much of that propaganda come from? It comes from the city of Hollywood, comes from the city of LA coming out of Hollywood. So these things are tied together, and you can't fight on one front. You have to fight on every front, and you can't pretend that LA is just a city in the West on the West Coast. No, what happens in the state of California is actually tested there and then it's proliferated all over the country.

SPEAKER_38

Yeah, it's all tied together, which is what we've been saying for five years. Okay, it's all tied together. It's not ever, you know, yeah, there's some these events, when you look at them, they can all look independent and separate. But the reality is they're all tied together, right? We're not just in Iran because we're chasing nukes. Nope. We're there because they're part of the global alliance and they've been directly involved in election theft. And it's at the point where it's at the point, up in Belfast, cutting people's heads off in the middle of the streets. It's at the point, Aurora, Colorado taking over whole apartment complexes. It's at the point, Springfield, Ohio. They're eating the cats and dogs, the cats and dogs, right? It's at the point where if we don't fight back, we're gonna have a problem. Big problems.

Iran Strikes Ceasefire And Oil

SPEAKER_38

Now, over in Iran, lots of stuff happened this week. This was a bad week for me to be gone, right? But I ran snip, snap, snip, snap. It's on, it's off. It's on, it's off. Cease fire, we're still firing in that part of the country. Ceasefire just means you fire a little less. Meanwhile, yesterday or today on third off say Wednesday, they we we they shot down on Apache helicopter. Oh, the pilots and the co-pilot survived. They were rescued by a drone boat. Kind of interesting. Totally unmanned drone boat went out and rescued them. Interesting. Pretty cool. Apparently, a drone boat can go a whole lot faster over choppy water than when there's people in the boat.

SPEAKER_20

Yeah, I might be a little bit suspect of drone boats approaching me.

SPEAKER_38

They were very much in enemy waters. So the boat went, got them, dragged them out until they could be rescued by rescue helicopters. Okay. But that that merited a retaliation strike. The retaliation strike, $250 million in missiles were fired. Okay. And Iran called the United States and spoke directly to President Trump in the situation room and asked for him to stop firing. So here's Jesse Waters kind of recapping this whole Iran situation. This is last night, this is the most up-to-date on the Iran situation, and then we're gonna update it.

SPEAKER_03

Fox News alert Trump just called off strikes in Iran at the last second and has announced all parties have agreed to final points of a deal.

SPEAKER_27

We just made a great settlement of the war with Iran. And we're gonna be uh subject to finalization of documents which could get done over the next few days. Probably have a signing maybe in Europe.

SPEAKER_03

Trump told the post a deal is pretty much wrapped up, and top brass and Iran have approved a draft agreement. The terms extend the ceasefire, immediately reopen the strait, and in 60 days, Iran has to downgrade their uranium to zero. We don't lift the blockade until the uranium's vaporized, and we don't unfreeze any of their money until they behave. For weeks, we haven't heard a peep from the gay Ayatollah, but now he's coming out.

SPEAKER_25

Has the Supreme Leader approved the field, sir? I understand the answer is yes.

SPEAKER_03

The last two nights have really gotten the Iranians' attention. The USS Michael Murphy launched dozens of Tomahawk missiles, hitting Iranian surveillance, communication systems, and air defenses along the southern coastline. These were the most ferocious and devastating airstrikes since we ended major combat operations in April. Tonight was gonna be even worse.

SPEAKER_27

We were hitting them very hard for the last three days. We're gonna hit them even harder tonight. They knew that we told them exactly what we were gonna do. We explained it exactly because they had no Navy, they had no Air Force, they had no any weapons of detection, they had nothing. And so we could tell them exactly what they wasn't a thing they could have done about it.

SPEAKER_03

It wasn't just these airstrikes that put the pressure on. The president warned Iran he would just keep bombing them every night until they signed. And flirted openly on Fox and Friends about seizing Carg Island. Reports say the combination of airstrikes and Trump's saber rattling really unsettled the enemy and forced them to agree to terms. And one of the most embarrassing revelations for the Iranians was Trump disclosing that the U.S. Navy has been conducting Operation Freedom in secret, finessing dozens of tankers out of the strait right under Iran's nose. Because without radar, satellite, and comms, the enemy's deaf, dumb, and blind.

SPEAKER_27

Over the last month, we've been uh taking out ships, big ships, uh, quietly at night. You guys didn't know they're pretty cool, right? As a captain. He knows about more about ships than I do because pretty cool. They turned off the lights. We bombed their radar and everything so they couldn't see what was going on. We took them out at night. And uh that with the straight will officially open as soon as we sign, which could be soon.

SPEAKER_03

Today, CENCOM said the straits open for business for everyone except the Iranians. CENCOM officially declaring the United States now controls the strait. Our forces disabled another blockade runner in the Gulf of Amman. A guinea-flagged MT javelier was trying to transport oil from Iran until one of our aircraft fired two Hellfire missiles straight through her engine room. The president told Fox last night that the Mullers called him, begging them, begging them to stop the strikes.

SPEAKER_27

They've taken a pounding like very few people could take. And they want to make the deal a lot more than I do. And uh we could have had it done the other way, I guess, but it would have taken longer. They uh they got hit very hard recently, as you know. And I don't like to have to do things that way, but I felt it was necessary. It's a great deal for the United States and for the Middle East.

SPEAKER_03

Trump's been waiting at the negotiating table for two whole weeks. And now we're finally inches away from a deal. JD, he could be signing a memorandum of understanding in Europe this weekend. You know, Trump's got to be at the UFC fight.

SPEAKER_00

Has Iran committed to not pursuing um a nuclear weapon, or will there be more negotiations on that down the line?

SPEAKER_27

They will not have a nuclear weapon. They've agreed to that. There will be no, which is the whole reason, which is a big part of the reason. Is that going to be your agreement? They will not only not have, they will not purchase, develop in any way, any shape, in any way, shape, or form a nuclear weapon. They will not have a nuclear weapon.

SPEAKER_03

But we have been down this road before. It's not over till it's over. Until we witness the dust being destroyed, anything can happen. But this time does feel different. Felt different for the market, too. Dow shut up 900 points. Oil fell into the 80s. And administration sources tell primetime this looks like it's it. Remember, the president's aiming for a great deal or no deal. And wouldn't it be nice if we could get one this weekend on the president's birthday?

SPEAKER_29

Why do you wish yourself for your birthday?

SPEAKER_27

For my birthday. Well, I'll go a step bigger. Peace for the world, okay? Peace for the world, Middle East.

SPEAKER_38

Yes, peace for the whole world. Pretty fun. So, there's been mixed reports because nothing we know about going on in Iran is true or false. I mean, we have no idea. We agreed we didn't agree. We agreed we didn't agree. So, I mean Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_20

I like that part where he's all we agreed, we didn't agree, we did what you know, and then uh, oh yeah, we've been bombing the hell out of them for three days. It's like, wait a minute.

SPEAKER_38

So the interesting thing was oil has stayed, you know, it's been under a hundred dollars, under 90 bucks or whatever for a while now.

SPEAKER_20

Yeah, but gas kind of goes all over the place.

SPEAKER_38

Yeah, I mean, yeah, gas goes all over the place, especially if you're in a blue state, you know. And I don't know if it's as much Iran as much as the legislatures adding gas taxes. But either way, back to them pulling boats out of the Strait of Hormuz in the middle of the night.

SPEAKER_22

Inflation to come down between that.

SPEAKER_27

When the war is over, yes, it's coming down. I know you can't. It's gonna come down like a rock. And uh again, we're taking out millions, which I'm just announcing today for the first time. But we've been taking out millions of barrels of oil. Millions of barrels. Every night oil. Now I'm gonna because they just figured it out. So now that they figured it out, I can tell you. It was very hard for me. I wanted to say it's I didn't want to ruin it, but it was very hard. But uh millions of barrels of oil has come out. That's why it's at $85.90 a barrel instead of 250. But um, we have the greatest military in the world, the toughest military in the world, the great just the best in every way. Nobody even close. There's no military that's even close. I rebuilt it during my first time. I'm using it now. When this conflict is off. It's uh sort of a conflict, it's a military operation.

SPEAKER_38

When it's over, you will see oil drop to where it was before. Yeah. So they've been pulling boats out in the middle of the night, and it's been going on for a while. They've pulled like a hundred plus boats out, like 20 a night, 18 a night, 22 a night, something like that.

SPEAKER_20

Seems like you'd figure that out pretty quick when all the boat names are moving.

SPEAKER_38

Well, I'm sure they just turn their transponders off, hit the lights, and make a make a run for it.

SPEAKER_37

It's cannonball run, baby. Right.

SPEAKER_38

Go through the streets.

SPEAKER_37

I've got tomahawk missile cover.

SPEAKER_38

So pretty pretty cool. So that's that's Iran. It's still out there, big mozzaball, just kind of waiting to be resolved. And it's affecting a lot of things. The CPI came out, inflation's up, right? And the way they adjusted it, it's pretty bad. So Trump does not have a handle on inflation, those are just market forces. Now,

ActBlue Smurfing Case Hits Court

SPEAKER_38

another thing happened. A federal judge in Massachusetts uh decided to stop state proceedings in Texas. So Act Blue, right? The fundraising organization for the Democrats that has been caught smurfing, putting people on the list, making literally thousands of donations in certain people's names. They had no idea they were donating to Act Blue. Literally caught on hidden camera. Um, they had, I didn't pull any clips of this, but they went and testified in the House this week. The president of Act Blue took the Fifth Amendment 22 times in the hearing. Okay, like shocking. Like, I don't want to answer any questions. Basically, there's a there was a letter that she wrote to Congress in response to the allegations of smurfing and foreign donations, and she wrote a letter back essentially denying everything. And the Act Blues attorneys ended up quitting over it, but they wrote a letter to her saying, Hey, you might have perjured yourself and lied in that letter. The letter got leaked. So we kind of know that Act Blues up to no good to their eyeballs. Okay, no surprise there. Yeah, but a federal judge in Massachusetts blocked Attorney General Ken Paxon's lawsuit, and it's a state lawsuit. Attorney General Ken Paxson is in the state of Texas. He brought state charges against Act Blue. Okay. They got caught in his state taking foreign donations, smurfing, et cetera, et cetera. Well, this judge in Massachusetts decided he just could not let the state of Texas proceed with state charges. So he's enjoined them. He's enjoyed, he's enjoined them and said that uh so basically we're Ron, I don't know. Okay, so so here's here's where it goes. A federal judge in Massachusetts is enjoining a state attorney general across the country. So we can sue in Texas federal court to stop California gun laws, right? Or does this clown show civil procedure only work for the I can't even, you know, the I can't believe you did this crowd. A federal judge of Blaschusetts blocked Attorney General Ken Paxson from continuing the state court lawsuit against Act Blue, finding that it was likely brought because the platform helped raise money for his Senate rival, James Tallerico. Oh that's the Massachusetts judge is blocking a state attorney general from bringing charges because the Massachusetts judge thinks that the state attorney general is doing it purely because Act Blue is helping raise money for his political opponent, not because of the undercover videos, not because of the people who have been indicted on the peripheries of this matter, not because they have hard evidence, simply because the judge thinks it's political.

SPEAKER_20

In Massachusetts. This is really good signaling, I guess, but I I can't believe that that has any teeth, you know. Somebody from Massachusetts telling Texas what to do. It's totally.

SPEAKER_38

Like you said, we should, hey, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. Just start suing Texas. We start suing California for their gun laws. Texas is just a Texas federal judge should just be like, hey, California's gun laws, uh, no bueno. So I'm enjoining Tex California if I'm enforcing their state law.

SPEAKER_20

You can enjoy Washington, I guess, too.

SPEAKER_38

Hello. Let's get a let's get a uh a pro fair election judge to enjoin all the Democrats from counting votes after election day. How about that? It doesn't look fair. It looks like you're trying to steal the election. That's enough reason for me to tell you to stop it. So pretty interesting. Another, another moment.

SPEAKER_39

The Justice Department is now highlighting.

SPEAKER_38

So another thing happened here. Okay, sure.

DOJ Memo Targeting Catholics

SPEAKER_39

A David switching gears here for a moment. The Justice Department is now highlighting this memo, a controversial memo.

SPEAKER_38

Okay, so I had to remember remind myself which clip this was. Okay, so another thing. Do you remember the Justice Department memo that was going after Catholics, fundamental Catholics, people who want to do Latin mass and stuff like that? You don't remember this? Oh my gosh. So under the Biden administration, the Justice Department had a memo that circulated to all the United States attorneys directing them to surveil Catholic Mass participants and fundamentalist Catholics. These are the type of Catholics that want to do Latin Mass and stuff like that. Oh my gosh. Oh, you didn't know this. Oh my goodness, Ron. Yeah. Literally wanted to go into the churches, track them in their parking lots, figure out who was attending Catholic Mass and target them. Absolute targeting. So this memo circulated, and Christopher Ray denied. It memo got leaked. Christopher Ray got hauled back in. Says, Oh, I canceled the memo and I told him not to do that, right? Okay. So, anyways, now there's a probe into this because now we have other DOJ officials who were reading this memo, and these aren't right wingers, these are just normal run-of-the-mill, like rank and file DOJ attorneys who were reading this memo, going, Holy crap, you may as well call this the MAGA targeting memorandum from 2021.

SPEAKER_39

What can you tell us about that today?

SPEAKER_42

This goes back to Attorney General Merrick Garland's time in office October 2021. DOJ leaders insist the Biden Justice Department, quote, targeted parents. And today the DOJ announced a formal probe. Fox obtained emails from October 2021 that show senior DOJ leaders expressed discomfort with a memo that then A. G. Garland sent soon after the FBI put out this memo about school board meetings. That's what Garland put in his memo. The memo in the school board and Catholics instructs the FBI agents to be on alert for any threats to school board members, and was written just days after the National School Boards Association wrote to President Biden, equating some parental behavior across the country to, quote, domestic terrorism. In one of the dissenting emails Isher written two days before Garland released his memo, a senior DOJ official called the memo stupid, stupid, stupid, end quote. Another replied, quote, if they do this, they might as well rename the damn thing the anti-maga task force, end quote. The NSBA eventually apologized for its domestic terrorism language.

SPEAKER_38

So if you don't like boys going into girls' bathrooms and you show up at the school board or you attend Catholic mass, boom, you're a target. You know, may as well just not name it the anti-maga task force.

SPEAKER_20

Yeah, they should issue them brown shirts.

SPEAKER_38

Now, going back all the way to the IRS scandal where they were targeting conservative nonprofits and the Tea Party and stuff like that, the government has it out for you, right? I mean, they just absolutely have it out for you. If you're pro-closed borders, if you're pro-American jobs, if you're pro-farmer, if you're pro-American factories, if you're pro, you know, uh parents' sovereignty over their children and right to raise their kids, if you're a homeschool family, if you're working on any kind of alternative uh money systems like crypto or Bitcoin, if you're a J6 protester, all of us have been targeted. Okay. All of us have been targeted. Some of us more than others. Some people were so targeted that they actually got debanked. I was one of these people, right? My involvement in a little thing called January 6 resulted in Wells Fargo canceling my bank account and canceling my business's bank account. Might be one of the most devastating things that happened in the big picture of things. To be debanked means you ain't in business anymore. I mean, for a lot of people, this was a big, big deal. And for some businesses, this is like out of business. Think about it. In America today, if you're a business and you don't have a bank account, do you have a business? Okay. So finally, the DOJ is getting around into trying to figure out

Debanking And Big Bank Subpoenas

SPEAKER_38

what happened. Why did all these people get to banks?

SPEAKER_05

So the Wall Street Journal is reporting that the DOJ has issued subpoenas to several of the country's largest banks, mid-widespread allegations of debanking. JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, and Wells Fargo are all named in the report as officials investigate claims that big banks improperly close customer accounts based on their politics. Fox News legal analyst Greg Jarrett joins us now. So, Greg, in simple terms, explain what went wrong. Of course, Americans feel this is wrong, but a lot of these banks are alleging that the federal government put pressure on them to behave this way.

SPEAKER_02

That's right, because a lot of the debanking occurred during the Biden administration. Look, understand that uh banking discrimination is against the law if it's done by a financial institution for political or even religious purposes. It violates about a half a dozen federal statutory laws, constitutional protections for beliefs, uh, as well as state laws that protect consumers. You know, debanking is only allowed if a bank has suspicion of criminal activity afoot by a client in an account. But as long as somebody operates a lawful business, de-banking is illegal. The Treasury Department has been cracking down. But now that the U.S. attorney in Washington has stepped in, that really raises the stakes. I wouldn't necessarily assume criminal prosecutions. Typically, what happens is what's called civil enforcement actions, uh, which would include, you know, federal monitors, restitution, some pretty hefty fines and penalties. We could be talking about hundreds of millions of dollars that the banks would have to cough up. Now, if there is a conspiracy to violate civil rights, then yes, you could see criminal prosecutions against the banks and its officers won.

SPEAKER_38

Well, I'm glad. Usually Bank of America gets looped into some of this stuff always, but this is the first time I've seen Wells Fargo be directly named. And I'm like, yes, because Well Fargo did it to me. You know, say their name. Say their name. They did it. I think that's great. Gotta look into this stuff. This was devastating to people. This put gun manufacturers, this put crypto bros, this put January 6ers, this put, you know, people who supported Donald Trump, put him out of business in many cases. This is was devastating. Now, I find myself, I had a phone call with Trentis Evans over this last week. He called me while I was in, I was actually in Kansas City and I missed my exit and I had to do this big loop because I was who's that? Trentis Evans. He's a January 6er. He's been uh he works at the Picklin law firm. He's he's a real advocate for January 6ers. I believe he's an attorney. Okay, anyways, he uh he called me and I was like, because they're starting, we're starting to file lawsuits for January 6th, right? Now the weaponization's got funds gone, so the lawsuits are gonna start trickling, and I'm on their list. And so I was like, you know, I mean, what do you expect the response to be from the DOJ? I mean, we're going to Janine Pierro, but Janine Pirro's the one who's prosecuting Brian Cole, the pipe bomber. And we've still got Jocelyn Ballantyne on the case. He's like, I know. I'm like, so this again, another one of these law firms, or you know, Janine Perro, DC office. She got Jocelyn Ballantyne right down the hall.

SPEAKER_20

Sounds like a non-starter.

SPEAKER_38

What's going on? Yeah, it's really hard to know if there's gonna be anything productive happening here. Sometimes I wonder if it's like, hey, we can't do, you know. I wonder if sometimes this news clip that we just played is the worst it's gonna get for them. Right? Okay, so you get a little bad press, time goes on, you come to some settlement agreement, you sign some piece of paper saying, oops, I'm sorry, we'll won't do it again, and then you'll just promptly start doing it again. It's like HSBC. They get caught laundering billions of dollars for the Mexican cartels. Why do you still look out and see HSBC branches around? Like, why aren't they out of business?

SPEAKER_20

Well, money flows.

SPEAKER_38

Money flows, money flows. Now, another one of these groups that targets Americans is the SPLC,

SPLC Shell Companies And Hearings

SPEAKER_38

right? Southern Poverty Law Center. Yeah. The ones who took down the Ku Klux Klan, only the prop them up and buy capes and robes and Ku Klux Klan hat.

SPEAKER_20

I might not be able to say their letters right, but I remember who they are.

SPEAKER_38

Yeah, who established chapters of the KKK, literally organized and funded the transportation of the quote unquote Nazis to the Unite the Right rally, right? $300,000. They were the primary transportation coordinator to the Unite the Right rally, actually brought the Nazis, okay, to the extent that there were actually Nazis even there. They brought them. So this hearing that they had with the president of the SPLC. Now remember, they're under criminal indictment. So Jerry Nadler is giving them a softball question. He wants he wants the SPLC to be able to defend themselves. And so he asks a question basically saying, Do you have and use informants? Because that's allegedly totally acceptable, right? And even Jerry Nadler is caught off guard by this guy's defensiveness around this topic.

SPEAKER_35

Can you explain what actions the SPLC took before the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville in an attempt to help law enforcement?

SPEAKER_30

Uh Congressman Nadler, uh again, uh I must say that uh counsel will respond to all allegations in the indictment in the middle district of Alabama.

SPEAKER_33

It's not an allegation.

SPEAKER_30

It's part of the allegation.

SPEAKER_38

I didn't make an allegation. I don't want to talk about it. I don't want to talk about it. So here's Jim Jordan, who did the best job in this hearing of really grilling him because it's Jim Jordan's manner. He kind of tells the story with his questions and kind of leads them on, and he does a pretty good job. I have vo I have started to find Jim Jordan as to be completely feckless. Do you know kind of the history of Jim Jordan?

SPEAKER_20

Not really, but I have liked him in the past.

SPEAKER_38

Oh, he's great, he's wonderful. And I again, you know, if I was in his situation, I don't know that I would do differently. He's always been outspoken for President Trump. He does a really good job in his committee hearings, his cross-examinations are great. I mean, this is this is a wrestling coach from Ohio, right? I don't he's not an attorney, I don't believe.

SPEAKER_20

I kind of put him in the same category as Trey Gowdy.

SPEAKER_38

No, I wouldn't put him quite there. Trey Gowdy borderlines on nefarious.

SPEAKER_20

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_38

Yeah, in my opinion, Trey Gowdy borderlines on nefarious. But what happened with Jim Jordan? And this is true, okay, during the RNC convention in 2020, leading up to that, there was uh, or actually it was after the RNC convention. No, it was before the RNC convention. So Jim Jordan was really on the front end of COVID and all of the issues that we care about. Yep. And then one day there were two things that happened in one week. There was Kelly Loffler's staff member and Brian Kemp's nephew, or I don't know, there was a relationship between Kelly Loffler and Georgia and Brian Kemp. What their nephew, son, daughter, boyfriend, girlfriend, staff member, two of them were blown up in a car. And Sidney Powell said that was an assassination.

SPEAKER_21

Okay.

SPEAKER_38

That was a we've got, you know, we will do bad things to the people you love signal that was sent. The second one was Jim Jordan's nephew was murdered. His brother's son was murdered. And it was, it was ugly, and it was it was a it was according to Sydney Powell, it was a hit job. Oh. Since that moment, Jim Jordan has become all talk, no action. Oh, right. Since that moment, Jim Jordan has been all talk, no action. So a lot of people think that there was just he just too much, you know what I mean? Too much. So he's he's good. I love him. I can't hold anything against him, but he's probably one of the ones that's gonna do a lot of talking. And at the end of the day, he's not gonna send the criminal referral or whatever. You know what I mean? He's gonna come just short of the goal line. But he he grills uh the act act blue here.

SPEAKER_18

Mr. Fair, did the Southern Poverty Law Center use donored money to have field sources attend extremist rallies across the country?

SPEAKER_31

Mr. Chairman. Simple question. Did you use your donor money for that purpose?

SPEAKER_30

We use our donor money paid confidential informants to infiltrate extremist organizations.

SPEAKER_18

Did the Southern Private Law Center use donor dollars to have field sources host extremist rallies throughout the country? Not to my knowledge. Did the Southern Private Law Center use donor dollars to have field sources grow existing chapters of extremist groups?

SPEAKER_30

Mr. Chairman, uh as I said earlier.

SPEAKER_18

Did you use donor money for the purpose I just read? This I'm reading straight from the superseding indictment.

SPEAKER_30

And Mr. Chairman, the indictment uh will be managed and responded to by counsel in the criminal case that's the first time.

SPEAKER_18

Well, you just answered a question from Mr. Raskin concerning the indictment. He asked you, did field sources send information to the FBI that helped with things? You answered that question.

SPEAKER_30

I mean that's a matter of public knowledge. That's in our public filing.

SPEAKER_18

Did uh Southern Private Law Center use donor uh money to have field sources create new chapters of extremist groups? Again, Mr. Chairman. Did the Southern Poverty Law Center uh use donor money to recruit new individuals into those extremist groups?

SPEAKER_30

I assume you don't want me to answer since you're not giving me time to answer.

SPEAKER_18

No, I'm giving you time to answer because that's a yes. Did you use your donors' money for that purpose? Yes or no?

SPEAKER_30

Again, those issues will be uh resolved in the pending allegations against the SPLC.

SPEAKER_18

It seems to me if the answer is no, you could say no. We have asserted that the allegations are false. Did the Southern Pope Law Center use donors to have field sources make donations to extremist group leaders and purchase materials for crossburners? Alleged in the indictment. Did it happen? We've alleged that those allegations are false. Did uh Southern Pope Law Center use donor dollars to have field sources create racist paraphernalia that it's so we do this, right?

SPEAKER_38

Anytime you want to push off liability and go allegedly, right, allegedly. So you're defending yourself. Well, we allege that those allegations are false. Are they false? Because if you say they're false and they're proven to be true, you committed perjury. But if you just say, well, we allege, it's like well, okay, like hello, like here's your sign, folks.

SPEAKER_30

We've alleged that those allegations are false.

SPEAKER_31

Okay, how about this? Uh, what is fox photography? That's a tough one.

SPEAKER_30

How about Northwest Technologies? And they're covered by the attorney client privilege.

SPEAKER_18

These are these are well, did the Southern Poverty Law Center establish shell companies to pay to run the money through to then pay the field sources?

SPEAKER_30

All of the allegations that you are referring to, Chairman Jordan, will be how about this responded to IR Counsel in the middle district of Alabama.

SPEAKER_31

What are we doing here? Chairman Jordan.

SPEAKER_30

The council will respond to all the allegations in the indictment and the case pending in the middle of the year.

SPEAKER_18

Well, there's all these companies that you sent money to, Center Investigative Agency. Not the CIA, but your CIA. Fox Photography, Northwest Technologies, Tech Writers Group, Rare Books Warehouses, Imagery Link, J and J Electronics, and Kelly's Marine. I'm just wanting to know if that was the intermediate shell companies that you guys set up to pay the field service. Is that true? Will the good chairman yield for the I got just a minute and a half, and then I'll be happy to entertain questions.

SPEAKER_30

The council will respond to all the allegations. Oh jeez. In the middle district of Alabama.

SPEAKER_21

Okay.

SPEAKER_18

Um did you do it all for the money?

SPEAKER_12

Oh.

SPEAKER_18

You said now, I think Sun Part of the Love Center said you're no longer going to use these field sources. You're going to stop the program. But you did it for multiple years. And according to the indictment, it was four million dollars that you shelled out to these various field sources to engage in all the activities I just read.

SPEAKER_30

Was it all about the money? As we said in our public statement, Chairman Jordan, we did it to protect our staff and to protect the public. Did fundraising increase?

SPEAKER_37

We paid for Ku Klux Clant woods and robes and props has to be burnt to protect the public. You have to know how bad we are.

SPEAKER_18

Oh my goodness. We did it to protect the public. Did your fundraising increase? Did the donations coming in increase?

SPEAKER_30

Chairman Jordan. Is that you or me? Did I do that?

SPEAKER_12

I don't know.

SPEAKER_18

Sounds bad. I'm not sure exactly what you're referring to when you say How about this? After the after the crazy Charlottesville rally, did fundraising go up?

SPEAKER_30

Mr. Chairman, our fundraising went up. Fundraising where one of your field sources helped coordinate transportation. Our fundraising went up when President Donald Trump was elected in 2016.

SPEAKER_18

Fundraising go up after you paid a field source to coordinate the transportation at an event in Charlottesville where a person was killed. That's what I'm asking. Did it go up? Because according to what we know, you went from 51 million to 133 million in one year.

SPEAKER_30

Whoa. And that happened when President Donald Trump was elected. Who's the president of the National Socialist Party?

SPEAKER_21

Political match.

SPEAKER_18

You know who he is?

SPEAKER_30

Mr. Chairman, that's an allegation in the indictment that will be responded to by counsel in the local district of L. These guys are cooked, dude.

SPEAKER_21

These guys are cooked.

SPEAKER_38

We will respond to the allegation. We allege that it's not. That's like saying it's true, but we don't want to admit it's true or not true. We allege. Exactly. Oh my goodness. The theme is the same. The theme is the same, right? The left will literally fund the problem that they're fighting. They do this all the time. It's crisis problem solution. It's Hegelian dialectic. This ties back all the way. Marx was a fan of Hegel. He was he was trying to take the Hegelian dialectic and actually turn it on its head, but using the same premise. And another another sycophant for Marxism is Norm Isem. He's one of these attorneys that's behind so much of the law fair everywhere. And it turns out his law firm actually will loan lawyers to the United States prosecutors around the country so that they can go after their guy's voice is so bad.

SPEAKER_20

He should be an evil character in a cartoon. I know.

SPEAKER_38

And he should get some sun too.

SPEAKER_32

It's totally a racket.

Norm Eisen And Prosecutor Rentals

SPEAKER_32

Let's just start with Norm Eisen, who runs this uh States United uh Democratic uh outfit. I don't know how many salaries this guy collects, right? He's got a law firm, he's got States United, he runs this uh media outlet called uh the um the contrarian. He also is uh a fellow at Brookings. He's making millions upon millions of dollars, and it's clearly being funded by some dark money from the left. And so he has that money, he he whips it all up, he packages it, and then he goes to the uh leftist state attorney generals and he says, Boy, do I have a deal for you? I'm gonna send you free lawyers, and then these lawyers show up in Wisconsin. Uh, you know, they're they're writing memos and having deals in Arizona so that uh Trump uh officials or Trump uh alternate electors, contingent electors or others can uh you know get prosecuted by Arizona.

SPEAKER_38

Uh he literally pays for lawyers to go into these states and prosecute people to attach his staff to these state attorney general staffs so that they can not just go after, hey, listen, I know as an attorney general you got to go after street thugs and crimes like that, but I mean, and you don't have enough bandwidth for the political stuff. But hey, if I loan you some attorneys, can you take care of these political cases too? Yeah. I mean, holy smokes. It's it's not it's these people are gross. Now, while I was in Wisconsin, little did I know, you'd think I would have known this. Donald Trump was also in Wisconsin. Did you know that? Donald Trump was in Wisconsin, so he headed to Wisconsin, and Karen Welker, Kristen Welker, excuse me, the lizard-looking lady from NBC, she came out to interview Donald Trump at a uh farm event. And it was raining, and they sat inside of a you know, a pole barn, so the rain was really loud on the roof and stuff like that. You can hear it in the interview. And Donald Trump, this interview went off the rails. And Kristen Welker, I mean, her facial expression, she's like attacking Trump, and she totally pulls a Leslie Stahl move here. She does the whole thing, there's no evidence of that. You can't say there's no evidence of that. And Donald Trump is sitting there going, just look. You're not looking.

SPEAKER_20

So she's calling the president a liar?

SPEAKER_38

Yes. And it's like, just look at the evidence. It's Leslie Stahl moment, total retard, right? Her, and we already knew this. Why do we listen to her? I don't know, because there's clips, man. That's the only reason. You can't take any of the words coming out of these people's mouths seriously. But nonetheless, Donald Trump goes over two things with her that kind of end the interview.

Trump Welker Clash Over Evidence

SPEAKER_38

One is January 6th, and two is the election fraud. They had FBI agents ushering them into the building. They had FBI go into the building. Those people walking around, they're looking always in this. This is what I love about Donald Trump. He tells it like it is. The way lawyers talk about this is there were informants in the crowd. What did they do? Well, that's still uh, you know, we're trying to sanitized. Sanitized. So they're just there. They're just observing cash patel. They were there to do crowd control. Yeah, crowd control to control the crowd into the building. But Donald Trump, who's Clearly had briefings on this, clearly been. I know Peter Tickton, my attorney, spent nine months gathering the evidence and presenting it directly to Donald Trump. So Donald Trump probably knows more about January 6th than you would assume. So when he says this, he's saying what they did. He's not going to go and through like a lawyer is and like break it down and all the intricate things. He's like, listen, they sent him into the crowd, and this is what they were doing. Those people walking around there looking always in the side.

SPEAKER_27

They weren't in they were being pressured into the building. There's no evidence of that. And frankly, what they did was weaponization of our government.

SPEAKER_29

Sir, there's there's no evidence of that. More than a thousand people. No, there's none.

SPEAKER_27

You know what to do? Try looking at the tapes one time. Could you take it? Look at the tapes one time.

SPEAKER_29

But 172 people did plead guilty to assaulting police officers. You know why they pled guilty?

SPEAKER_27

Because they told they were going to jail for 15 years if they didn't. They pled guilty because they were frightened. They went down, they were ushered into a building. Many of them were arrested without even going into the building. The people were destroyed by dirty cops and by weaponization. Many of those people should be compensated. Now, with that being said, the as I understand it, the weaponization fund was going to set up a group of people, uh, people that could be picked by anybody, fair people, smart people, and they will go on an individual case basis. Now, I don't know what's going to happen with the weaponization fund, but I love the idea because people like you, the fake, the dirty press, the crooked press, people like stupid Biden, he's not smart enough to know what's going on. But people that surrounded him surrounded his beautiful resolute desk in the Oval Office, what they did to the lives of people, they destroyed people, they sent people to jail who did nothing wrong.

SPEAKER_29

Just to be very clear, there's no evidence of what you're saying, but there's nothing. Listen to me.

SPEAKER_27

Let's talk about tremendous evidence.

SPEAKER_37

There's nothing there's nothing but evidence. There's there's no evidence.

SPEAKER_38

They pled guilty, they pled guilty. Listen, they play I have if we would have just jammed up the system and just not pled guilty, the whole thing could have cracked under its own weight. Okay. But people did plead guilty because they're being told by their attorneys, it's 20 years or two. Take the deal. There's no other choices for you. And you can't in a way you can't fault them, but in a certain way, well, it's an unprecedented, unprecedented situation, too, you know. Yeah, there's actually a bill uh being put before the house to eliminate plea deals, to say, hey, the plea deals are the problem, right? There's a lot of innocent people that go to jail because you weaponize the process against them. I think that's good. You know, you should only charge someone if you're actually going to follow through. It's nothing worth talking about. Yeah, for sure. So then the topic shifts to elections. Again, no evidence. Look at the tapes, look at the evidence. You won't look. That's the problem. So then he goes on to talk about the elections. The election was rigged, it was a dirty election, and it's happening again right now in California.

SPEAKER_29

Now in California.

SPEAKER_27

Right now, it's looking look at what's happening in California.

SPEAKER_29

It's the Republicans are doing well in California.

SPEAKER_27

They're dropping fast because it's a rigged election. Let me tell you, it's four days, and they aren't even close to coming up with. You know why they're doing that? Because they're cheating on the election. There's what do you have evidence to support? All I have to do is look. All I have to do is look. And I listen. And I listen to people, and let's see what happens.

SPEAKER_29

But sir, that's not evidence. You think it's appropriate.

SPEAKER_27

Do you think it's appropriate that they have an election and five days later they're nowhere close to picking it up?

SPEAKER_29

No, they're crooked. They're urging the votes to be counted quickly. That's how they vote for the country.

SPEAKER_27

Just like you're crooked. Your press is crooked, and meet the press is crooked.

SPEAKER_29

To be fair, I'm not crooked, but let's do it. Really? Well, you play right into their hands with it.

SPEAKER_27

You're either concerned or you're stupid. You play right into their hands with this rep. You know that these elections are rigged. Your network knows that they're rigged. You know that I won an election in a landslide, and I got 94% bad press. But Mr. President, you know why I got that? Because you have no credibility.

SPEAKER_29

But you've never presented evidence that it was rigged. Let's keep talking about. I want to talk about Todd.

SPEAKER_27

You have more evidence. There's more evidence than ever presented. Let's talk about it. Your elections in this country, we're like a third world country. Your elections are crooked, and you're crooked. At least the press is crooked. And so is ABC and CBS and CNN. Well, Mr. Prince. Your one-sided crooked network. Let's call it quiz because I've had enough. Thank you, everybody. Have a good day. Yes. Let's keep the whole deal Wisconsin.

SPEAKER_29

I've traveled all the time. I know. Traveling all the way to the house.

SPEAKER_27

On and off in the ring. And I've given you enough time. You want to straighten out your press because you know what? Mr. Prince, a country can never be great with a dishonest.

SPEAKER_29

Listen, you traveled all the way to Wisconsin before the community.

SPEAKER_38

It's over.

SPEAKER_20

I went all the way to Wisconsin.

SPEAKER_28

I spoke with President Trump on Saturday, and we both acknowledged the complications during the interview posed by the rain. He agreed to sit down with me for another Meet the Press interview. Why?

SPEAKER_38

Why do it? You should just ice these people out. Make it boring. Make it boring. You know, just bring Norm Isa on over and over again. Just make it boring.

California Mail Voting Trust Collapse

SPEAKER_38

She's right. You know, this is just the way California does it. I mean, they take forever to vote until they get the result they want. Even when back, even back when Kamala Harris ran for AG. It took them 30 days to make her the winner.

SPEAKER_16

Four weeks after the November 2nd election. California finally has declared a winner in the Attorney General race. Harris finished so close to her Republican opponent that it took a month to come to every vote. She won by less than one percentage point. Four weeks.

SPEAKER_38

So the Spencer Pratt election, oh my goodness. You know, I've talked to a couple people in California and they're like, we think the federal government's gonna do nothing. I got news for you. They're not gonna do anything.

SPEAKER_20

They're not gonna do anything because the way it's a state thing, right?

SPEAKER_38

Well, it's not just that it's a state thing. It's that when you really get down to brass tacks with these people, you'll find out they'll go, well, yeah, all these things are wrong, but we have to maintain the illusion of control. We have to maintain the illusion that things are right because otherwise, normal people will start ignoring the rules, right? If you, a normal driver, realize that the speed limit's not being enforced, eventually you'll stop following it.

SPEAKER_20

Or if your votes don't really count, nobody will vote. Nobody will vote, they can do whatever they want, exactly.

SPEAKER_38

Or uh I said this one time and I kind of regret saying it, but I I hold true to it. And again, it's not how it's not what I'm putting into practice. But the solution to this is that nobody votes, right? You want to break it, nobody show up. Nobody, not a soul, and then when nobody votes, they don't have the consent of the governed. Uh the elections create the illusion of consent of the governed 50 plus one. Yeah, we had an election. Get in line, follow the rules. This is what the majority wants. It's the plausible believability of the consent of the governed. If nobody votes, they can't say you voted for us. We just go, no, you're just sitting in the seat. You just won't leave. We don't want you here. Does that make sense? We we we don't want you here, we don't even acknowledge your authority, and that you're the election even matters. We don't vote.

SPEAKER_20

That's not a practical solution because all it would take would be one person to vote. And how could you keep that one person to vote?

SPEAKER_38

Well, but then you go, hey, only one person voted for you.

SPEAKER_20

Right. Right.

SPEAKER_38

So it was you. You don't have the majority. Well, but that's how we vote in America. No, we vote by consent, and we don't even consent to these elections being real, so we don't even participate, right? But there are no laws, there are only cops. Everything's around enforcement, and so if they can create the illusion of control, the believability that the there's consent of the governed, then they'll continue to be governing. Now, Donald Trump called out this stuff in California. What happened was Spencer Pratt on the night of the election was in second place. That means he's heading to the general election. A third place city councilwoman, all of a sudden, during the mid the after vote counting, surging, surging, surging, she's getting more votes than Karen Bass. She's catching up to Pratt. In fact, there was one ballot dump where it was circulating on the internet that he got no votes out of 20,000 ballots counted, which is a statistical impossibility. You could be hit by lightning 19 times, and it's more likely, right? In one day, it's more likely that that would happen than that he would get no votes. Well, the attorney in in California did a little digging into that, and turns out it's not true. He did get votes, he got 10 votes. So the statement that he got no votes isn't true. It was like 10, right? So it's another one of these, like, okay, so you've whoever said he got zero votes kind of made it to where the normies out there are like, oh, that was fake news. It was fake news, but it wasn't fake in this direction. He's getting way less votes in the mail-in after the vote. And basically, as soon as she gave a concession speech, Ron. Yeah, she gave a concession speech. All of a sudden she was surging, and then she surges, surges, and then and then as soon as she overtakes Bratt, she's declared the winner. They still have lots of counting left to do, but as soon as she overtakes Pratt, she's declared the winner, and then we just move on with our merry day.

SPEAKER_20

You know, I saw something very recently in a poker game, something like this happened. It was very sketch. So this guy's these two guys are in a hand, and one guy says, Well, my hand's not very good, so it looks like you win. And that guy, the other guy puts his cards in, and then the other guy's like, Well, I've got the only live hand, I win. And he won. Yeah, they ruled in his favor because the other guy, you know, slipped his own. It's like, man, that is.

SPEAKER_38

Because he didn't say I fold and didn't put his cards on the deck. Yes. Yeah, it's rigging the game. Yes. So Donald Trump caused such a stink about this election in California that they actually finally declared Steve Hilton the winner, and he was the same way. He was trending. They were gonna they were gonna knock him out. They were gonna knock him out.

SPEAKER_26

And uh he he did Spencer Pratt, he did really uh pretty damn well. And they threw him out, and it was happening to Steve Hilton, and I went on a t I I went on a tear. And they said it was gonna be two weeks, and they'll know about Hilton, whether or not he's gonna make it. I went on such a tear. They approved it immediately. It's such a rig deal, it's so crazy. They were they they approved him so fast because everybody was watching. And he was leading, and it was leading by a lot, and you saw his lead was dissipating rapidly. They were taking it away from him just like they took it away from the kids. And I went on a tear, and by the way, we have the U.S. attorneys looking at it. And the two weeks said, all of a sudden, it's oh, we have a surprise. Steve Hills won. And he went, he did win. But they were gonna take it away shortly, they were gonna take it away over a two-week period. You know, they announced that they wouldn't have the results for a week to two weeks. All of a sudden they approved Steve Hill. But Iran. It's a rigged election.

SPEAKER_38

Okay, but just I shouldn't have brought that up, but it would all eyes are on it though.

Skid Row Cash For Registrations

SPEAKER_38

So now we watched James O'Keefe videos of Skid Row voters being paid for their votes, paid for their registration, fake voting. And of course, it's so funny because oh, 20,000 or 14,000 or 20,000, I can't remember. Voters in LA got their ballots returned to them, and they're all going to the internet saying, Hey, I got notified by the the commission board that my signature wasn't verified. So then people are going online and they have to cure their signature, and then they're getting notified it's not cured again. So then they go in and it's notified. Some people are up to their fourth time trying to cure their signature. Signatures are being rejected. They're like, I'm literally standing in front of you telling you I voted for Spencer Pratt. Let me sign it. And they're like, Well, your signature is not verified. This happened to me, Ron. Oh. In 2020, when I voted for President Trump, I got a notification saying your ballot didn't count, your signature wasn't verified. I'm like, what? But of course it's Washington, elections have been called. It's like, okay, how many people did they do that to? It's another nexus where they can go, these ballots we're going to set aside. Make these people come in and verify. And how many people do? 1%, 5%. Not very many people are going to follow up after the election's been called, right? But that's an easy way to just peel off 20,000 ballots and just not count them, just exclude them from the count in at all.

SPEAKER_20

What is your feeling about this Pratt thing? Because it feels like to me that they just knew there were no way they were going to be able to cover up and and uh steal the election in the general, and so they had to do it now.

SPEAKER_38

It's wild corruption. Yeah, it's just listen, when's the right time to get out? Before or after they build the wall, the Berlin wall. Like this, this is so outrageous. It it it they are relying on the fact that you're just gonna go to work tomorrow. It's the same thing in in in Belfast, Ireland. Eventually, all those protesters are just gonna go back to work, they've got to go provide for their families. You gotta eat. Right, you gotta eat. They just as long as we can just move this thing along, they're gonna move it along. They're just it's Joe Biden, office of president elect, and they just and we're sending our people over to start taking over the guy, you know, and the transition team. It's just acquiescence, it's just people giving up. We literally saw the voter fraud in California. We know what they were doing on Skid Row. We have it on video. In fact, somebody already was indicted, pled guilty, and then has reported to prison in the last three months since this scandal broke out. Okay, that's how quickly they've processed this. We know for a fact this was happening.

SPEAKER_43

Brenda Lee Brown Armstrong made her initial court appearance this morning. Case stems from a video made by conservative activist James O'Keefe. It appears to show Armstrong and others paying homeless people to register to vote and then signing various petitions.

SPEAKER_35

And uh yes, James O'Keefe is uh it's the source of uh was uh there was a public recording of an undercover video of her out on video paying homeless people to register to vote. This is an example of election fraud, and this is not merely an allegation. She has admitted guilt. She'll be appearing in court at 10 o'clock this morning, and uh, she has agreed to uh enter a plea of guilty at the appropriate time.

SPEAKER_17

Jane's really caught up on this. They're out freaking out, they're losing their minds, making statement after statement after statement about how illegal this is and how they're going to investigate it. I've never seen this before in my life.

SPEAKER_38

Hot, cold, cash in hand. Cash in hand. But just like Kristen Welker, Hakeem Jeffries knows the company line.

SPEAKER_40

Um, earlier in the week, you told me that there is no election fraud happening in California, and that anyone who questions the outcome of the election is a conspiracy theorist. However, there are now homeless people on Skid Row admitting they were bribed with cash, drugs, other incentives to vote Democrat in elections. Does that change your stance at all on whether or not these elections are rigged?

SPEAKER_11

Listen, I'm unfamiliar with those reports. Oh, and I wouldn't be surprised if those are part of some far-right conspiracy theory being peddled on the internet to try to convince the American people that there's evidence of fraud in California.

SPEAKER_40

Um earlier in the week you told me that That's the whole clip.

SPEAKER_38

Far far right conspiracy theories at this point is a dog whistle for the truth. Okay. Give it six months, it'll be fact. But they'll still say, that's a far right conspiracy theory. Listen, the fact that you attached far right means it's true. Okay. If you said it was a far left conspiracy theory, I'd be like, oh, so is the earth flat or round? Like, what's going on, right? It that that's a far left. Far left stuff, probably fake. Far right stuff, that just means it's true. It's a dog whistle. It's a dog whistle to the to the left voters and the vote blue no matter who crowd. Hold the company line, smear these people, slam these people, hold the company line. You have video evidence of it. This is at scale. Okay. This is at scale. And Gavin Newsom told us that they have a break the glass process.

SPEAKER_45

Uh we all have agencies, we can shape the future. There's still a lot of look. I I've said this before, so I'll repeat it. I don't anticipate this need to be the case, but there is a break the glass scenario. And I there's many people that have a deep understanding of what it would look like if Democrats were locked out, and we're gonna do everything to make sure that doesn't happen. I'll agree with that.

SPEAKER_38

Democrats being locked out probably means some of them go to jail. So, you know, when you're backed into a corner, how

Voter ID And Audit Trail Debate

SPEAKER_38

far do you go? Now, Jay Clayton. Jay Clayton is the prosecutor in the Southern District of New York, and he has been a huge advocate for Donald Trump, and he spoke out on this election fraud stuff, and he also got the nomination to replace Tulsi Gabbard as the director of national intelligence. So, this man that we're gonna play this clip right now is going to replace Tulsi Gabbard as the director of national intelligence. His confirmation hearings have already been scheduled for this week. That's how badly they do not want Bill Pulte as the director of national intelligence. They've expedited his hearing. They could have dragged it on for six months, right? But they're like, nope, nope, we're putting him in. Which, by the way, makes me really concerned. If the deep state is acquiescing to Jay Clayton over Bill Poulte, it kind of makes me wish Bill Poulte had his, you know, 120 days or whatever in the spotlight. Because this is like, okay, a little, you know, a little sketch. But either way, this is Jay Clayton on CNBC talking about the election fraud and how the system itself is rigged of what's happening in California right now?

SPEAKER_15

No, I actually can't, which I think is the problem. Um you know, you you raised this about election integrity, um, which I think is the point.

SPEAKER_19

That's what I'm talking about. I I'm I'm watching it, and it are any of the things we're hearing about like thousands of votes all for the same person. Is any of that true, or is that just a sort of a conspiracy like a hundred percent for for the socialist candidate versus the others? Is any of that true?

SPEAKER_15

We had a problem, a deep problem with voting in America. We we had race-based discrimination around voting. It was identified, we had the voting rights act. It was all it was all about access, making sure that people were not denied access. There was a second element to it, which was election integrity, making sure that once everybody has access, that their vote actually counts, that it's not being diluted by illegal voting or shenanigans and the like. I think we've done a pretty darn good job on access. I don't hear anybody claiming that they don't have access to the ballot box. But we've done that. But no, no, no, evidence. Right? We have we have groups dedicated to making sure that people have access, tons of money dedicated to it. You know, laws and and laws that my office enforces, other offices enforce to make sure that people on the integrity side, we're doing an absolutely terrible job. And the American people are right to question it. How come we can have an audit trail in every other aspect of our lives that's important? People cite getting on you know planes and the like and things, but you know, in every here's here's the issue.

SPEAKER_04

California's election law allows ballots for by election day to be counted and permit same-day registration. That means tabulation typically continues for weeks after.

SPEAKER_15

But why why why is that law there? I I get you.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, that doesn't sound like fraud. That you can uh argue whether the law makes sense, but that doesn't sound like a fraudulent situation.

SPEAKER_38

No, there's and so this is part of why we say it's rigged. Okay, the system is rigged to allow fraud, and this is one of the challenges they're gonna have in California. Who do you indict when they're following the law? Yeah, I don't know. When the law doesn't require you to vote or ID, when the law doesn't require you to have a postmark ballot, when the law doesn't require you to do these things, then how do you charge these crimes? Yeah, yeah. It's literally set up so that they don't get charged and that they're forced by the momentum of the thing to count the fraudulent ballot that they they are showing pictures of ballots with the sign or the envelopes with the signatures that are smiley faces, like people laughing at the ridiculousness of the system. Okay, it's set up such that they can't be held accountable.

SPEAKER_15

There's a great phrase opportunity for fraud. Right? One of the things you do in designing laws is reduce the opportunity for fraud without in in this case, reduce the opportunity for fraud while not adverse.

SPEAKER_19

And every time it happens to you, it's like, okay, the all these are coming in for the next thirty days. Oh Democrats vote that way, so it just makes sense that it's a hundred percent Democrat that's where the opportunity comes from. So yeah, you you can hear but why why is it always go that way with the mail-in votes why is it always a hundred percent democrats are voting in the in the mail in why can't why can't why can't you count them like they do in other jurisdictions on the same day as election day or within a very reasonable well if you mail them in on election day they're not going to be there on election day well if I mean I I I got stuff returned to me that I sent out for Christmas by like two months later that's coming back in the right why we why we wait until election day for mail in ballots I I don't I really but those are questions with the law and it that doesn't suggest that there's necessarily fraud here.

SPEAKER_04

There's you can have cause for an investigation but with the governor's office Becky I completely agree with you.

SPEAKER_15

It it's what it does not think there's not fraud I'm just saying there's not necessarily fraud there and that's what it is is it make it makes the opportunity for fraud so much greater when that is not necessary.

SPEAKER_19

It's not necessary for ballot access and it's not necessarily one guy was up eight percent now now three days later or whatever yeah now he's down.

SPEAKER_15

Well and it makes it makes you ask it is is mail in voting being used by one group and not another whether it's being used um honestly or honestly and dishonestly is is a question now everyone is asking. It's a question that can be eliminated look at Florida everybody's comfortable that Florida delivers election results and that there's access to the voting booth in Florida I think you know Florida deserves a great deal of credit. Florida is a state that has many jurisdictions that lean right many jurisdictions that lean left and I think they all agree that as a state they probably have the best election loss.

SPEAKER_38

Yeah and Florida's got problems too according to the case which by the way he just got robbed from the Republican nomination up in Minnesota and he was leading in the polls but yet the UNIParty decided not to endorse them. That'd be interesting. Now Bill Ace Aseli, who is the United States Attorney for the Central District of California where a lot of this voter fraud is happening, he was on an interview with Glenn Beck and he said something interesting. He said they're gonna have to wait for this election to be certified to prove some of the allegations of fraud.

SPEAKER_33

You said you expect people to be charged um can you say with what and you feel confident enough you have enough evidence I I I will just say it will be election fraud charges in the in the next I I hate to put timelines on things but one to two months I believe we need we need the uh some of these results to be certified so we can uh you know prove some of the allegations but we will be charging some people I I can't get in too much and and mostly Glenn I mean it's not just DOJ rules but we also want to protect innocent people. If we get something wrong we don't want someone to be tainted with this with the stain of an investigation until we're able to prove that in court. So I I can't get into too much but just know that this is at this point right now we're wide open for investigations. If anyone knows anything direct and then please direct evidence. I know people have theories and they have ideas and what we need right now are witnesses. If you've witnessed anything if someone voted in your name and you found out someone voted for you we want to know about that. If you saw someone collecting ballots in a suspicious way or doing something odd with ballots we want to know about that. Those are the kind of things we need direct evidence of right now so we can uh launch into deeper investigations.

SPEAKER_38

So they're still looking for a lot for evidence but they say the election has to be certified to prove some of these allegations what does that mean? That probably means they're looking at election officials who are ignoring some aspect of the already loose laws that they can go after. Fore uh Ferrazier says in Idaho the vote by mail has to be received no later than 8 p.m on election day it does not matter about any postmark Idaho allows anyone that asks for any reason to vote my bill but you have to ask that's better than just mailing a ballot to everybody on the list especially when the ballots are bloated. Remember Oregon just had to take 8000 people off the voter rolls that in every election prior to this received a ballot or at least a ballot was generated for that name that was proven to be fraudulent or non-existent and had to be removed from the voter rolls. Chris Cuomo interviewed the same attorney from California and he actually did a really good job of fleshing out that these guys don't have much by way of evidence or a case.

SPEAKER_36

So then you do you have not conducted an investigation you are conducting one. So you don't know and you are in the business of knowing right now you don't you are pointing to one case and you know what you could point to a dozen do you know why? Because those are all the cases you've made in the last decade a dozen individual cases.

SPEAKER_35

I did not say half I did not say found wide scale fraud there's two different things we're going to you're saying for sure I did not say we have found wide scale fraud. Oh sounds like you're gonna fall short of the mark no hold on a second you're saying for sure you know there isn't I'm saying we don't know because we haven't been able to look at all the evidence at scale why is let's talk about the voting system in California Mr.

SPEAKER_36

Asaley Mr. Asaley if you were in a court of law right now and I don't want to I don't need your opinion on the system because you're not a voting system expert you're a prosecutor that's why I have you here if we were in a court of law like you said I was in the legislature I was in the legislature on the election committee I know a little bit about California's voting system. Yes so wait a minute you want me to you want me to take somebody's experience in the state legislature for how long I was there I was in the legislature for three years I've been involved in election integrity as an attorney and we can take I've covered elections for 30 years Mr. 30 years.

SPEAKER_35

You know how many cases of widespread fraud I've covered one and it was the Trump administration Russia gate it was Russia gate we're entitled to audit California's voter rolls under multiple civil rights statutes we're entitled to audit those you are the state is resistant. Yes you are why is that I know why are they resisting look the best way to the best way to deal with all this is to have transparency and and to give people like Chris I don't care what the outcome of the election is we want people to have confidence in the systems and that the laws are being forwarded so yeah when California lets you register to vote with a GIM card that is not a good system. When you can register to vote with a debit card that's not a good system. When you don't clean your voter rolls that is not a good system when you legalize ballot harvesting which is illegal in most states with no chain of custody not a good system.

SPEAKER_36

And then you ask us why do we have it wide scale fraud because the last part is an accurate the other ones are very are good arguments they're just political arguments not legal ones and again you are in a legal capacity not a political one okay maybe you're getting them confused because of the legislative hat or being in the Trump administration but if you were in the court of law right now Mr. why why we need to excuse me sir excuse hold on a second I'm not saying you shouldn't audit the roles I was nodding along and saying yes yes while you were saying we have every right to audit the roles and the state saying no is a bad look. That's what I said a bad look. All right so I'm with you. But if you were to say to a judge Your Honor we don't know that they didn't do it that is a bullshit standard. Now it works in politics not in law that's what I want to make sure you know how to keep straight.

SPEAKER_35

Brother We have not charged the state of California with wide scale voter fraud we're conducting an investigation. We have not brought a case and I guarantee you when we do bring cases we will have plenty of evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law that is how we work that is how we speak I have not provided any specifics on any case. I've simply told you there is evidence of voter fraud we are looking into it and when we're ready to bring those cases you'll see the evidence you'll see the case we'll make it a court of law but we want to instill confidence in the elections which is why we are seeking to audit the voter rolls. And that to me is the best way to alleviate most of people's suspicion we have a system that breeds skepticism and distrust we should have a little transparency and confidence in our system so he's saying what I said it's important that we trust the election system.

SPEAKER_38

So for the conservatives out there we're gonna do an investigation and it's gonna result in a couple people that voted two ballots and whatever but it's not it's not dispositive of the election. So go the speed limit follow the rules the cops have the authority that's what this is going to boil down to the right wing and the left wing are both going to agree don't let the peasants rebel don't give them any more reason to not believe in the legitimacy of our rule that's what it's going to boil down to and Chris Cuomo's right there. You're making a political argument the only thing we want is hard evidence. We see it they're handing money to people for ballots.

SPEAKER_44

Okay but you only caught them doing it 20 times 15 times does that mean they did it a hundred thousand times or does that mean they did it 15 times it only matters what you can prove right and it gives fodder it gives fodder to the Christian welkers of the world you have no evidence of widespread voter fraud it's like you have a rigged election the system's rigged well that's a political argument go take it up with the legislature you see what I'm saying so CNBC also interviewed John Thune another one of these weasley weak knee people who just can't see the obvious and do it but you're not gonna get any Democratic support on that what is the problem with with what is their position as to why that doesn't make sense to to show voter ID uh and and I can think of some good reasons why you wouldn't want to uh if you were if you were a Democrat but this isn't the way it did that it should be done what how do we how do we strengthen you know our notion that voting is is uh has integrity in this country right well and I think that's a that's a question for uh the Democrats who block voted against the very simple ish issue of of uh voter ID which we've uh put on the floor now a couple of different times we've had the entire Save America Act on the floor a couple of times too but we've had the the specific rifle shot vote if you will on whether or not you have to show a photo uh to vote in this country and uh every single Democrat voted against it. And and it does beg the question and you see a state like California and Joe you always hear about states being the laboratories of democracy and if there are lessons learned from some of these states like California it's that this is a really stupid way to run elections because it undermines the confidence and trust that people in California and across the country have in those elections. Now frankly you have to prove if there was cheating and uh and clearly that's something that you would have to do in California or anywhere else for that matter. But the fact that it takes days literally days to be able to count votes in a state like California when there are other states around the country who do that very quickly and get an outcome and a result uh it's it it's incompetence if nothing else. And you know whether or not there uh it was actual rigging is something that have to be proven but clearly this is a system in California that doesn't work and doesn't inspire confidence and trust in voters by the vote.

SPEAKER_38

They always say those words in sponsor confidence and trust in voters confidence and trust in voters. To me knowing what I know this means they've been stealing them for a long time. But as long as they maintain trust and confidence from the voters that you can't prove or allege that it's enough nefarious shenanigans then we're just going to keep going on. And that's what I'm hearing from these guys. Listen we do not want to overturn the apple cart. It just needs to appear legitimate and California doesn't appear legitimate so it's a problem. Okay so let's do something about it let's require voter ID well then you you need evidence to show you see what I'm saying this is all a political problem we need to show face. Now the Democrats and the left are losing people even like Gillian Michaels who kind of made her fame during the biggest loser reality TV show. And she's been a Democrat she's a lesbian you know most people may or may not know this. I don't know if it's even relevant but she's she's been your traditional lefty she's a product of California right and the Maha movement with Robert Kennedy Jr, a Democrat kind of brought her over to conservative values and principles and to be kind of she probably votes Republican at this point. And she said the thing that everybody Trump's been talking about rigged elections for six years now. Okay. And she's like I used to not believe them but after seeing what's going on in California remember this Spencer Pratt campaign woke a lot of people up in LA Karen Bass does not deserve to rule she should not be in charge they burnt down the Palisades. A lot of her policies made that situation way worse than it needed to be the homelessness problem is that is an all-time problem. People are dodging human feces to go get their latte their maca lattes right and so she is even coming over to the fact that you know maybe there is a problem here.

SPEAKER_07

To be honest it seems to me that he is the only one standing between us and the complete loss of free and fair elections. You know I used to think that Trump was insane for suggesting that the 2020 election was stolen and now I'm just I'm actually not so sure. Because these animals in California are not just changing election law. They're changing what elections actually are and California is not the end of this story it's the blueprint and here's the thing everything we just walked through that's the surface that's the part that's documented that's litigated that's on the record and already legal so no matter how nefarious or corrupt it may be they made it legal but here's what they didn't count on the They didn't count on us. They didn't count on this the fact that 30 million Californians now have a roadmap not a rumor not a conspiracy theory but a documented sourced timestamped account of exactly how this is done and exactly who did it and you can't unknow this and they can't unbuild what they built in the dark now that it's standing in the light. And the fight for California is the fight for the country guys. And it starts with conversations like this one.

SPEAKER_38

Now we know what they do. They're gonna always win the election with Mellon voting right at the end they'll they'll find the ballots they need Kamala Harris and her attorney general's race this isn't a new thing. It's just the plausible believability that Karen Bass or Raman would win that thing is just beyond the pill she gave a concession speech she was behind in the polls have you ever heard suddenly all these her whole constituency apparently males in their ballots have you heard of a gentleman's name Dean Logan no oh snap he's the election official in LA did you know that he used to be the election official here in Washington election rigor extraordinary stolen much stolen much so Todd Blanche had a press conference with the Department of Homeland Security talking about they they indicted a bunch of human traffickers that brought a lot of these migrant children across the border.

Finding Missing Kids After Border Chaos

SPEAKER_38

Remember the Biden administration lost between three and four hundred thousand kids and the Trump administration has gone out and they have found about 1400 of these kids.

SPEAKER_20

Okay. And Todd Blanche's whenever we talk about the kids and we get numbers that are over thousands I'm just like what we're talking the population of this county I know it's like how did we get here?

SPEAKER_38

It's unreal. Yeah and the whole and we're gonna hear from Mark Wayne Mullins the horror that some of these kids live through during this time period. It's and there are still children living through this. So when I was on the airplane flying to Wisconsin I was on a Delta flight and we had a TV screen and I watched a documentary about human trafficking in Ohio and they were bringing illegal immigrants children to Ohio to work in chicken farms and some big factory got caught and they came in and raided the place and the whole place was filled with child labor that had crossed the border and they were taking their their papers and documents and it followed them all the way back to Honduras where the families were sending their children to go work in America and they were giving the deeds of their houses to the traffickers until their debt had been paid. And when these people got indicted in America the people down in Honduras went and gave their deeds back to all the families so that they could avoid stuff in Honduras too. It's really crazy it was a documentary about it. So this has been going on for a long time and Todd Blanch gets asked about this and he says listen when officials know about this that's happening when you know kids are coming across the border when you know they're being raped and you don't do anything about it that's the problem. Encouraged though is quite a charge I mean what evidence evidence do you have of that?

SPEAKER_18

What evidence to say that it was encouraged this behavior is quite a charge.

SPEAKER_13

Well you can insert whatever word you want I said encouraged if if you know there's a problem and you're in a position of leadership to stop it and you don't stop it what words should I use I mean I I use the word encouraged if it it isn't as if this was a a single day problem. You have a situation that happened over a a number of years they knew it was happening it was brought to their attention it was happening um and and they didn't do anything to stop it. As a matter of fact when you look at the end of 2024 and there were 3000 like you just think in your mind that number and our that number of of young children and then we had no idea where they were in this country. I mean that's that's um I I continue to use the words encouraged so yeah they encouraged it by doing nothing.

SPEAKER_38

If you stop enforcing the speed limit on some county road you could and just stop enforcing it completely people going hey people are going like 100 miles an hour on a 35 and the sheriff's like that's encouraging some speed limit I guess that's what we're doing now. Okay and what is it that they were encouraging it goes to the election integrity issues. They're literally encouraging the cheating by the structure of the thing and by ignoring the allegations of fraud or or that the system the system is rigged. Well with the kids it's the same lane Mark Wayne Mullins describes the horror these the things the horror that these kids went through and here's the crazy part you know who was in charge of it? Xavier Basera who was the top candidate and vote getter in California running for governor he was the one that was in charge of these kids and let them slip through the cracks. You start hearing the absolute um horrific things that took place underneath the Biden administration under true neglect at best and criminal at worst to allow 450 kids to go missing throughout this country president Trump has made it a point to go find these kids because of our partnership with uh HS HHS and DOJ Department of Homeland Security truly using the best of the best which the Democrats sometimes want to demonize because a lot of times this is ICE this is HSI this is CBP these individuals that the Democrats seem to want to defund but because of President Trump we finally funded them for three years were able to push and go find these kids we found 146000 kids so far 146000 kids we still have nearly 3000 missing we're in we're investigating reports to where some of these kids claim that they were raped six to seven hundred times I don't care who you are I don't care if you have kids if you don't have kids I don't care if you're a liberal you're independent you're a Democrat you're Republican if you can't stand for law enforcement to go find these kids who are you Xavier Xavier Bashera who's going to end up being the governor of California that's who you are that's who you are so yeah California is the breeding this we gotta stand and fight can you can you withstand the storm that will come down on you can you withstand the debank can you withstand the removal of your professional licenses which California Washington state they'll weaponize that system against you can you withstand the normizing prosecutors that get loaned to the Attorney General to come after you who are you probably going to end up being the governor of California you were the director of HSS you were a congressman right that's who you are. Get funneling kids and the Democrats they even brag about this openly this is Governor Whitmer on June 1st 2026 talking to Oracle's CEO Clay Magarook. Okay now this audio's not good but we're gonna listen to it and then I'll tell you what she said if you couldn't hear it.

SPEAKER_32

I mean they could look at whither like you didn't know it's like they have people have a model she said and I know the audio was bad she said we're used to people

SPEAKER_38

Saying F no and doing it anyways. It doesn't matter. Oh. We're used to the people saying no. The people saying no. And we're just going to do it anyways.

SPEAKER_20

Ah, I see.

SPEAKER_38

We're going to stage insurrections. We're going to stage Unite the Right rallies. We're going to we're going to target conservatives. We're going to tell farmers they can't sell whole milk. We're going to do whatever the blink we want.

SPEAKER_20

I see.

SPEAKER_38

And do it anyways. It doesn't matter. They're going to steal it right out from under you. They're going to take it without even blinking. Because they have the power and you don't.

SPEAKER_20

And what are you going to do about it? Nothing.

SPEAKER_38

And here's another example of what they're going to do despite what Americans really care about or what's in our best

Reopening Fisheries For American Boats

SPEAKER_38

interest. Did you know under the Barack Obama administration, they closed 500,000 square miles of America's fisheries? Now they didn't close it to all fishing. They just closed it to American fishermen. Oh. Which opened the door to international fishermen to come in. That press conference we played a couple clips of from Trump earlier, that he was surrounded by these fishermen. Some people might even notice one of the deadliests.

SPEAKER_20

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sig. I saw it there. I was going to say something.

SPEAKER_38

So he in this press conference, Howard Lutnick, Department of Commerce, describes how the Obama administration closed all these fishing grounds and made the United States in one presidential administration from being a net exporter of seafood to being an importer of seafood. Would we like to change it? Yeah, go ahead.

SPEAKER_22

So this action, 500,000 square miles were closed to American fisheries. You couldn't go and fish 500,000 square miles. I mean, just think of how big that is. And if you had an American flag, we weren't allowed there. But of course, everybody else went. They went in our waters. These are our waters. And so what did that result in? That resulted in us instead of having seafood exports because we have great fishing opportunity. We were an importer. We became an importer of seafood. How crazy is that? So the president is finally changing that. This is a massive win for our fishermen, massive win for our waterfront communities who process it. All these processors, and in the end, we are going to eat fish caught by us. What a shock! Eating fish caught by us in our water. So this is just common sense, smart. We already have the best conservation rules in the world. And this was one on top of another, on top of another. So thank God from the fisherman's perspective, and I get these calls all the time that President Donald Trump is in this office because he's finally letting our great fishermen and fisherwomen get out there and catch fish and stop importing fish. Let's eat fish caught by Americans.

SPEAKER_38

Why? And this is when Donald Trump said, because these people built this country. These people built this country. They deserve the right to fish, to make a living, and they support all of our local communities. He let one of the local fishermen from the Portland area here in the Pacific Northwest, and he's got he's one of the largest fishing companies that's vertically integrated with the family in America. Okay. And they've been iced out of a lot of these fisheries. He let him speak about the impact of this.

SPEAKER_24

We're third generation. These two are some of our kids as a pool of fourth Pacific Seafood. We immigrated my grandfather immigrated into this country and started his first fishing market in 1941. From there, we now are one of the largest family vertically integrated seafood companies in North America. It was American Green. I'm honored to be. Where are you from? Portland, Oregon, and now Arizona. Liberal. Not a liberal.

SPEAKER_25

If we could count the votes.

SPEAKER_38

Because people who actually live in even the farthest left community, like us, I'm looking around all the time going, where are the real lefties? I mean, I see an occasional purple held person out there, but normal people are like, yeah, no, illegals shouldn't vote. That's like American Civics 101. Hey, boys shouldn't be in girls' bathrooms. That's like, you know, common sense 101. Like, I didn't realize we were having this debate.

SPEAKER_20

Yeah, we don't need a committee for that one.

SPEAKER_38

Okay, we don't need a committee for that one. So if we could just count the boat votes, yeah, exactly. Some of your most blue cities probably aren't that blue. Count the votes probably.

SPEAKER_24

But where we are is this the act, the proclamation day, and the exact order last year prior to this, it's really going to help us. We have 3,000 families with us, and 715 fishing families. Lower 48 in Oregon, Washington, California, and Alaska. What we catch, what we process, and what we grow and sell is the healthiest protein on the planet. And you're giving us access to these family weights jobs in these coastal communities where we're usually the number one, we're number two employer in those cities and counties and uh coastal community. So I just want to say thank you on behalf of that 3,000 employees and 715 fishermen. Thank you, Mr. President. Secretaries, thank you, and everybody that supports this industry.

SPEAKER_25

So did you ever see this happening when uh they destroyed your whole life and your family and your business, anything else? Did you ever think that somebody would come along and let me just be really clear?

SPEAKER_24

There's never been a president to do this.

SPEAKER_38

There's never been a president that would do this. Because they all go the other direction. They want to destroy the American way of life. Driving across the country, what Trump said, we built this place. These are the people who built this place. Largest employers in their community, a fishing company. You know, when you drive the Highway 101 up the Oregon and Washington Coast, you drive by community after community with fishing boats just stuck in docks that can't fish American fisheries. The East Coast is the same way. And Donald Trump is turning all this stuff around. Americans are so wildly ingenuitive. We can do so many things.

DIY Electric Pickup Conversion Breakdown

SPEAKER_38

Right. I'm going to show you this little clip here. I just think this is cool. So my dad and mom bought a Tesla. So I got my chance to drive the first, my first electronic vehicle ride. I love it. I'm begging parents, please. I don't have a job, so I can't qualify for financing because I don't have a job, but I've got a gay income. I mean, I'm supporting myself. I can make my payments. I'm like, please buy me one. I'll make buy me one. I'll make the payment, right? I want an electric car so that my friend Jeff here locally, he says, you know, people who drive a Tesla, you know, you should drive a muscle car because if you drive a Tesla, sure it goes faster and auto drives, but then you're, I don't know, he has this order he says, but I don't believe it. Okay. I think it's cool. American ingenuity is awesome. And I see a marketplace for people who do cool things. Okay. Lots of people would love to reuse older vehicles. And obviously with the kill switch, which apparently got defunded in the appropriations committee, the kill switch on vehicles that's coming.

SPEAKER_21

Okay.

SPEAKER_38

But we played a clip a while back where you get in your vehicle and your car's looking at you, and if your eyes are blurry or whatever, it won't run. It's the kill switch. It's to avoid people being drunk, the car's going to be monitoring you all the time. They killed the kill switch. Okay. But nonetheless, there's a lot of advantages to having an electric car, right? That really truly there are like significant advantages to having an electric car. But obviously, you're limited. You know, you got the Rivi and the Tesla and Hummer EV, and you know, and whichever one you pick, you got to kind of be local. Sort of, yeah. But what about taking old cars and converting them to electric?

SPEAKER_41

Yeah. So I have spent the better part of these last few months converting this old pickup truck to all electric, and it's finally up and running. So I'd love to just take a few minutes and show you guys exactly what I did. And at the end of the video, we'll take it for a drive. The base of this conversion is a 1982 Toyota pickup. It is a two-door, two-wheel drive long bed, comically long bed. I bought this truck for a blowing motor. I got it with a 22R gas engine in it. It unfortunately threw a rod. I pulled it out in chunks, and now it has a Series 1 DC motor in it. It's made into the original five-speed transmission back there. Just has a custom motor mount. And then some of the stuff you see off the left here is a vacuum pump for power brakes. But as you can see, it's pretty empty in here. Most of the stuff was taken out and no longer needed. Excuse the mess in the garage. We come to the back here. Uh found an old electric logo. I have no idea what this is off of, but I got it for like 10 bucks. I figured why not throw it on there. And then the battery pack, you can kind of see it down there. This aluminum state, too. Enclosure houses some uh battery modules out of an old Tesla model. The aluminum enclosure is attached to some steel angle that I've welded into the existing frame. Moving on, we have our brains and charger and whatnot in here. It's a little bit messy right now, so please forgive me. But this is basically all the brains to swap here. You got the controller, the interface, contactor, charger, all that good stuff. Then finally on the inside, we have a throttle pedal out of a 2009 Toyota Prius. We've kept that original five-speed transmission so we can still row through gears. Make that nothing happened. Let's go for a drive. Oh, sounds awesome. Like I said, still got the manual transmission. Pop it into first gear here. And if you want to change gears, just let off the throttle. Put it in the second. Give it a second to rev match and you're good. Reverse, reverse. The dashboard is only really useful for the speedometer at this point. That is cool, man. That's pretty awesome.

SPEAKER_20

That is cool. You know, he might have a business opportunity there.

SPEAKER_38

Oh, dude, we all do. I mean, literally, all that equipment, you could just make the equipment and sell it. Come get a conversion kit for light, you know, just do it light vehicle, light vehicle, medium vehicle, heavy vehicle.

SPEAKER_20

It'll just be based on the weight you gotta push around.

SPEAKER_38

Super cool. Super cool. I mean, for an entrepreneur and someone that sees the opportunity, like you saw it, that's a business opportunity. Yeah, it's a cool hobby, it's a cool project. But more than anything, there's a lot of people that would love to just convert broken down vehicles into electric.

SPEAKER_20

Well, I recognize it right away because when I was young, I was a little kid, my dad started a business converting cars to propane. Yeah. And then that will open my eyes to a whole new world. Yeah, it's pretty cool.

SPEAKER_38

It's pretty cool. And it looks like the hard work is just getting the engine crap out of there. Everything else is mount, mount, mount, controller, new th new throttle, and away you go. I mean, it's it's it's an electric vehicle with a stick shift transmission.

SPEAKER_20

I know.

SPEAKER_38

I wonder how long it took him to figure that out. He said a couple months, and he probably fabricated a lot of it. That's really cool. All right, guys, longer show today because I gotta make up time. We missed four shows. So we're gonna we're gonna run long this month. We have to. We're jumping over

Clarity Act Stablecoins And Bitcoin

SPEAKER_38

to private now. We're gonna be talking about the Clarity Act and then a little bit about Bitcoin. Good progress on that this week. Clarity Act is coming. They've we've been told it's inevitable. Like the banks, they can whine and cry all they want. Jamie Diamond said the CEO of Coinbase is a piece of shit. It's like you're really worried about losing depositors, aren't you? Anyways, all right, we're gonna jump over to private. We're gonna talk a little bit about the Clarity Act, and then we're gonna learn a little bit more about Bitcoin. We'll talk to you guys in a minute, and the rest of you tomorrow. Well, see you. I'm gonna do some streaming this weekend because I gotta make up some time.

SPEAKER_20

I hit the button.

SPEAKER_38

All right, we're gone. Okay, so this is Tim Scott. He's the chairman of the banking committee, I believe. Oh, I did something funny there. Picture in picture. I don't want that. Uh, he's the chairman of the banking committee, and he says, listen, the debating is done. This sucker's happening.

SPEAKER_12

Fact of the matter is that even uh JP Morgan is now getting involved in stable coins. Why? Because digital assets is a part of the future of finance, so every single industry will want to be a part of that, including banks. So, what we're talking about today is how do we set the rules of the road so that we protect our consumers? Job one is making sure that consumers are protected. Job two, making it less expensive to do business in America and easier to do it 24-7. Blockchain and digital assets allows us to get there faster. It's coming, period. Fact of the matter is that even uh J. Morgan is next.

SPEAKER_38

So for people that are like, you know, don't want to get left behind, then get on board, man. This is the future. Obviously, crypto is one thing, Bitcoin is another, crypto is gonna be co-opted by all the banks. Like you said, even Chase is getting into block uh it's like digital fiat. Digital fiat, exactly. Here is another representative who's like, listen, it's inevitable. Again, I've said this before too. It's inevitable, it's coming whether you like it or not.

SPEAKER_23

I understand from the perspective of the banks where they're coming from. I also understand the other side with this the with the Clarity Act and the currency in terms of what we're doing. What I do know is that's democracy at its best, right? There's gonna be a markup on it. We're gonna debate. Disagreement isn't disloyalty. We're gonna debate the issues, and much like in business, we're gonna get 80%, I think, of what everybody wants. Everybody would want a better deal, no question. And I understand the banks want the status quo. Unfortunately, we can't have the status quo, and there's going to be some changes. So I look forward to the markup. I look forward to the Clarity Act, and one way or another, it's going to get done because it's here to stay. What when would you expect final passage? You know, I hate I wish I had a crystal ball. I would say with uh within the near future, the next maybe month or so understand from the perspective So it's coming next month or so.

SPEAKER_38

The shot the they're shooting for July 4th. If you're interested in Bitcoin, get in now. You can go to the River link or referral link. River is an exchange where you can buy Bitcoin, create a path between you and Bitcoin because when the Clarity Act passes, you're gonna get a bump. I mean, Bitcoin's gonna go up. There's a lot of institutional money that's gonna be going in there. Ron's gonna go ahead and put the link in the chats for those of you that are still with us. Oh, we have a really good group with us still.

Bitcoin As Protocol Not A Token

SPEAKER_38

Okay, so this is Jeff Booth. He's one of the OG Bitcoiners, and he gave a great speech about Bitcoin at the Bitcoin conference this last summer. And it's worth listening to. I want people to understand Bitcoin and the why. Why Bitcoin is different, and it helps you be sovereign. One of the challenges we have is there's no way to get a way to get around the government when you're dealing with the money because you have these choke points, your bank accounts, right? They can be taken, all these different things. Bitcoin gets around all of that.

SPEAKER_14

Imposing the first free market that's ever existed. And and it's I I specifically said imposing. It doesn't care what you think of it, it doesn't care how you want to measure it, it's imposing it. And and but but because we've never lived in that system, we don't have a mental model for what that looks like. So we've always lived in a zero-sum game where if you had a bigger army, you can invade and steal somebody else's gold or raw materials, and you could put them under slavery for you. And inside the country that had the biggest army, you looked you you could win at their their loss. But it was always a zero-sum game. And then we replaced that system with monetary theft that did the same thing, so but we didn't have to invade them. We just moved you did it with the currency. But the free market is an infinite game, completely infinite, because you have to choose and somebody has to deliver you more value, and everybody wins. If you look at your calculator app on your phone today, um where is that in GDP? Do you gain value from it? Should it go up in price? Because people are making you want to tax the calculator app to make more money to pay for arbitrarily rising prices? The point is the technology is that allows us to do more with less forever. So this brings us up to a number of different observers observing what's happening in real time. An observer one in credit money. This observer is the vast part of the population. And this observer believes that money is systems foundationally sound, that money works, experts manage it, and inflation is normal. They question what rate of inflation rather than is inflation normal. And this would be an easy lie to believe. Everything they've ever known, every history book, the economists spoke this over and over, all the experts, they operate within a system that's in direct opposition to the free market, and and fight within that system about which side is right. And the expansion of money that has to keep happening from the credit-based system, because it can't stop, otherwise, it would all fail. The expansion of money leads to asset inflation, inequality, cost pressures. This leads to debt dependence and increasing fragility in the system. But because each person looks from that system to their hero to solve the system uh the problem that the system can't resolve, they divide. They naturally they divide. This person this person's gonna save me, this person's gonna save me. And and that credit money keeps on expanding, leading to more and more division of uh society, leading to larger interventions, leading to misallocations of capital, leading to fraud, leading to greater instability. Sound familiar. Crypto blockchain technology. And this observer sees Bitcoin as a software, version one, waiting to be disrupted by something faster, better, more features. And it's true, Bitcoin at layer one only does uh five to seven transactions per second. It can't do smart contracts, it's not private, it's old tech. And and so it matches an observation that this observer has that fits with Facebook replaces MySpace, the iPhone replaces BlackBerry. Those thinking and technology signals uh cycles and watching the past, those people that got rich in Bitcoin just by holding it, it makes perfect sense to them. Seeing an opportunity to for fast money, scams proliferate. Hundreds of thousands of coins get get made. Each new blockchain or token goes through the same bump pump and dump scheme by investors in a new thing trying to get out of the old system. And as that happens, people for the observers from one from group one look at those people and they say, Those people are insane. We were right all the time with our credit money. Um, and because they've they've conflated Bitcoin with blockchain, crypto, everything else. It looks like one to those other observers. Observer three is a little further down the path. And this observer sees Bitcoin as digital gold, best asset in the world. They've done their work to understand Bitcoin. It's decentralization, it's security, it's properties that make it the best store of value. But they're missing a higher level question. Why do we have a store of value in the first place? Why do you need it? Maybe because you've never been able to store money in money? And and the if so we store it in something else because money has always been broken. And the thing holds that value, and then the thing centralizes because we use a different money that centralizes the assets like gold. And then once the gold is centralized, the rules change. And it and and that's why we've never been in this system before. So if you kept on extending credit and money on a new asset, you would just have different rulers. Same system, different rulers, nothing changed, not the free market. And all of these observers share one thing in common not bad people. This is true for them, it's real for them. But all of their actions reinforce a zero-sum game, a system of extraction. Because they're measuring Bitcoin from infinitely growing pieces of paper. I'm gonna get rich at the expense of somebody else. And then there's observer four, and I'm firmly in this camp. This observer sees Bitcoin as a decentralized secure infrastructure. Neutral, open, promotionless. And this observer knows protocols don't come around very often, they're rare. They know that most people measure the internet starting in 1989. But the internet didn't start in 1989. It started in 1969. And it emerged in layers. And the same thing happening in the internet is happening in Bitcoin. And and that would be really confusing because today this we're talking most people are talking about the first layer of uh of Bitcoin. And all of these things that bound Bitcoin to physical reality, casing lower cost energy all around the world. An entire free market for energy sprouting out all around the world to be able to take advantage of the lowest cost energy, find new abundant energy all over the world. And then all of the different pieces here the cryptography, the consensus rules, the difficulty adjustment, the nodes that you can actively take a part in, and you can run a node and make sure that it follows your rules, the things that you said, you can audit everything every 10 minutes, and you can take action. You are we are a part of this. But if you knew it was this and how protocols developed, you also know that most people today thinking about the internet and the internet power and the same protocol stack uh powering your phone and everything else that you use today. There would be a massive misunderstanding on how that came into effect. And most people don't care about all of the grainy details on how the prototype call stack gets built. And so, what would happen in this? There would be a because it's a global neutral protocol, there'd be entrepreneurs from all over the world, talented, beautiful, incredibly talented, trying to build the next layer on top of it without another coin, just integrated right on top of it. And at first, five years ago, and if you ask on Lightning, probably half the transactions failed. I personally know some of the most brilliant developers who've been solving this problem. We've invested in some of these brilliant developers solving this problem, and watching them extend this protocol through every fight, trying all their ideas. Where today Lightning goes, it's it's it works all the time. We have portfolio of companies in our fund that are doing billions of uh billions of transactions or billions of dollars in transactions per quarter, growing like crazy in something that people don't be believe is being used as a currency. And I'm watching. They would know that if everybody was giving their time to a system based on money that was being destroyed, then those people caught in that system would feed a system of surveillance. And so people over here that knew this was a protocol stack, the entrepreneurs would be building privacy tech, would be building and and that is built on top of this. It's interactive. Services and applications would explode. And a bunch of this is already already there. Whether you use it or not, it's exploding, and it's already there, just like you, just like what happened on the internet. You didn't know about the internet even in 1989. Most people missed what the internet was. But it but a protocol grows like this. So it leaves me with a question. Um, these four observers, and we're back full circle to where we started. Every one of those observers that we talked about, the person trapped on the treadmill, the one chasing features, the one handing their keys to their keys to Wall Street, every one of them believes in their reality and is creating their reality. And they're bumping into each other in a chaotic world, and there's a whole bunch of those people, right? Way more than would think it's a protocol. And so I'm left with this question: if they all believe they're right, how could I know I am? And I can't for sure. Truth is, I can't for sure. But the world I live in now and watching what I would expect to happen, our models of reality should have predictive uh predictive strength. Otherwise, our model is probably wrong. So if you're confused about what's going on in the world, when you walk up the stairs, your model in your brain, you don't keep tripping. You fix that model in your brain. And the same thing. So you should it should have predictive power. So what would I expect if this protocol was coming into existence? Yeah, I would expect to be pricing the free market. I would expect all prices to fall against Bitcoin, exactly what I see. I would expect all of the layers to be building on top, exactly what I see. I would expect anybody operating in the other systems to be more and more chaotic because they were measuring from a piece of paper. And and so I understand how hard this is what is because I was once observer one. I didn't know. That's also gives me a whole bunch of hope. Because the world doesn't just happen to us, we have agency, it emerges from our actions, what we do, and so um I'm in this new system, giving all of my energy to this new system, and I'm watching as people move from this other system to the new system, every person taking self-custody, every no, every person running a node, every developer building on this layer, every educator who helps one more person see it clearly, every person in Bitcoin's circular economy is paying for this in Bitcoin. We're not just passengers, we are part of an emergent reality that transitions the world from fear, scarcity, control to a world of truth, hope, and abundance.

SPEAKER_38

That is the Bitcoin way. Yeah, right.

Living On Bitcoin And Self Custody

SPEAKER_38

It changes everything, and people come in at different layers. One of the cool things I did, not just as an experiment, I knew it was gonna work. I paid for my whole trip in Bitcoin. Oh I used my Bitcoin debit card for the whole trip.

SPEAKER_20

Cool, right?

SPEAKER_38

Just like if you go to Europe, you've got a credit card or a debit card in dollars, you swipe it, sell, you know, converts it over. I did the same thing. I paid for the whole trip in Bitcoin. It was pretty cool.

SPEAKER_20

Did you do you know what the total of Bitcoin expense was?

SPEAKER_38

I don't. I need to go look it up because I I I as I was doing now I I have gotten to the point now where I'm 90% on the Bitcoin standard. Right. Like I don't have dollars now. I've got Bitcoin and I convert it into dollars as I spend it. Okay. So I don't I don't know what the total is. I should look it up, but it makes there's this thing in Bitcoin which changes your time preference because you know Bitcoin's going to the moon. So it's like it'll be more valuable tomorrow than it is today. Money's the opposite, dollars are the opposite. Like it wouldn't matter. Oh, I just spent X number of dollars. Right. Okay. But Bitcoin, every time I'm like, ah, yeah, that's exactly what I'm worried about.

SPEAKER_20

For every gap, every for every transaction, I'm gonna be like, I'll just wait five more minutes.

SPEAKER_38

I'm looking at it going, and I'm gonna I'm gonna go someday. I'm gonna look back at this trip. You know, let's say I spent a thousand or ten thousand satoshis. Okay. So let's pretend it was ten thousand satoshis. And I'm gonna look back in 10 years and I'm gonna be like, that was a million dollar trip. That was a million-dollar trip. That was a million-dollar trip, you know, to my neighbor to spend 119 Bitcoin on an ice cream coat.

SPEAKER_37

Like, worst mistake of your life.

SPEAKER_20

You're like, hold my beer.

SPEAKER_38

What's nice about the Bitcoin standard is as long as you're putting more Bitcoin in than you're spending every month, A, it allows you to actually know what your budget is and you get that long-term upside. Cynthia Loomis put a post out that said that the Bitcoin reserve is one of the most important things we can do. She says the downside is manageable, the long-term upside is generational.

SPEAKER_20

Yeah, you know, also another observation that I made was as as we were going through that video, I was trying to like, well, what kind of observer am I? And or what time in the history was I observer one? And when did I go to a two? And I like, I think I am like a three slash four, but I'm realizing, and this is the important point, that nobody else is. Everybody else is a one or a zero, and we need to figure out how to get them off the off the you know, home bit home plate.

SPEAKER_38

You know, I'm really fortunate because at 1776live.us, I get to consult with a lot of people that have hair on fire problems. It's either a tax problem or I just talk to some people that are in the midst of a trade lawsuit. And it's usually a lot of money involved, and people are like, ah, what do I do? Yeah. And as I go through it, I'm like, you have some nexus points, right? This is one of the things I realized going through my J6 experience. I had a nexus point of attack on my bank account. I had a nexus point of attack, my my ability to travel, right? I had a nexus point of attack. It was my taxes, right? The the pain that that could cause. What I didn't have, because we're a homeschool family, is my kids couldn't get attacked at school. What I didn't have was my employer at his family, right? My my business partner. He wouldn't attack me. Does that make sense? Yeah. I had enough and my clients, my business wasn't my name, right? So people didn't Google my name when they wanted to do business with me because I had a business name. I had a couple things going for me that made it to where the attacks were, at least for me, were manageable. When I talked to other J6ers, it was like, man, you were attacked at work in the cubicle, your kids were attacked.

SPEAKER_20

It's overwhelming.

SPEAKER_38

You got audited, you know, it's overwhelming. One of the things that happens is when you get into these hair on fire situations is that your nexus of attack is your bank account. Bitcoin offers a sovereign alternative to where all of a sudden you can have wealth, you can have assets that just cannot be taken if they're done right.

SPEAKER_20

And then pretty soon you don't care what the banking policies are.

SPEAKER_38

You don't care what the banking policies are. You don't care about that stupid judgment. You don't care about all these different things because they can't take it. It's just it's you become powerful.

SPEAKER_20

Right.

SPEAKER_38

It becomes a non-stressor in your life. It becomes a non-stressor in your life. Exactly. So self-custody is the key, right? If you're on an exchange, you're vulnerable. You still have those problems. But if you can get it into self-custody, and that's what we're teaching at 1776 Live. And there is a learning curve. There is a learning curve, absolutely. So starting Monday, we have our Bitcoin class that's that's getting going from zero to node runner. So if you're not already involved, you need to go take a look. It's gonna be phenomenal. So, all right, guys, that's it for the show today. Thank you so much for joining us. We definitely will be back on Monday, and I'm gonna do some streaming, probably Liberty Lounge on Saturday, on Sunday. We'll do some stuff. Anyways, we'll talk to you guys again

Wrap Up And Bitcoin Class Invite

SPEAKER_38

tomorrow. Bye.

Closing Thoughts And Monty Python

SPEAKER_09

Come back to the man. I'm thirty-seven. I'm twenty-seven, I'm not old. Well, I can't just call you man, you could say Dennis. I didn't know you were called Dennis. Well, you'd better find out, did you? I did say something about the old woman, but from behind you look what Jacob is they automatically treat me like an inferior. Well, I am king. Oh king, a prison. 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 do you do? How do you do, good lady? I'm Arthur, King of the Britons. Whose castle is that? King of the Britons. The Britons. The Britons! We all are. We are all Britons. And I am your king. No, we had a king. We thought we're an autonomous collective. You're fooling yourself. We're living in a dictatorship of self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes are again. That's what it's all about. Only people will be pleased, good people. I am in haste. Who lives in that castle? No one lives there. Then who is your lord? We don't have a lord. What? I told you. We're in a narco-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week. Yes. But all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting. Yes, I see. By a civil majority in the case of purely internal affairs, be quacked. But by a two-thirds majority in the case of quack. I order you to be quacked. I'm your king. You don't vote for king. The lady of the lake. Her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held a lost Excalibur from the bottom of the water. Signifying by divine providence that I aren't 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 farmical aquatic ceremony. But you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because someone returns a sword. I mean, if I went round saying I was an emperor, just because some moistened bitch had loved a simitar at me, they put me away. Shut up! Will you shut up? Now we see the violence inheriting the system. I've been repressed! Oh, what a giveaway. You hear that, you hear that, hey? I'm on about. Do you see repressing me? You saw it in you.
