Alex Jones is back with a special report from Greg Rees on the Democratic Party Money Laundering through Ukraine scandal, and how it ties into the ongoing investigation into the now-defunct cryptocurrency exchange, Fintonxt (FTX) and how they laundered billions of dollars through Ukraine.
00:00:53.000You come out as a Liberal Democrat, you donate to Liberal Democrat causes, you are now above the law.
00:00:59.000So they'll investigate Elon Musk for the next two years, dealing with the Twitter thing, they'll investigate Tesla and SpaceX and all those other endeavors, and they will do nothing to the people that just stole billions of dollars and gave it to the Democrat Party and laundered money through Ukraine.
00:01:18.000Rallying patriots worldwide in defense of human liberty.
00:01:46.000Alright ladies and gentlemen, I've got tons of news today and obviously the big stories being the midterm election shenanigans.
00:01:56.000If you don't at least doubt what's going on or have questions at this point, you're just lying to yourself, you're lying to everyone around you, you're a scumbag.
00:02:03.000But we always had that feeling about you liberals.
00:02:10.000And then there's the FTX scandal that really is just the icing on the cake.
00:02:16.000And it's the icing on the cake that just shows how the American left ignores all their own crimes while pointing the finger at conservatives with their made-up crimes.
00:02:27.000And then, okay, that's just between us.
00:02:31.000Then there's the government approach where they're all focused on going after Elon Musk right now, and you watch the FTX guys will probably get ignored.
00:02:40.000The one guy was still tweeting as of moments ago.
00:02:42.000So here's a special report from Greg Rees with all the swamp connections, all the swamp filled muck that the entire FTX Democrat money laundering through Ukraine scandal has involved with it.
00:02:56.000And we'll come back and get to the news.
00:02:58.000Here's a special report from Greg Reiss.
00:03:18.000Nearly $40 million, which reportedly came from crypto donations to Ukraine.
00:03:24.000FTX was partnered with the World Economic Forum as one of Klaus Schwab's stakeholders.
00:03:30.000FTX's founder reportedly used a secret backdoor to steal over a billion dollars from the customers of the now defunct cryptocurrency exchange.
00:03:42.000But there's more to the story than Sam Bankman-Fried and a money-laundering slush fund for the failing Democrat Party.
00:03:49.000The CEO for FTX was Caroline Ellison, whose father is Glenn Ellison, head of the MIT Economics Department.
00:03:58.000Glenn Ellison hired Gary Gensler to head the cryptocurrency department at MIT in 2018.
00:04:06.000And in 2021, the Biden administration nominated Gary Gensler as the chair of the U.S.
00:04:14.000Who has been laser-focused on gaining control of cryptocurrency.
00:04:18.000While the SEC has been routinely combative towards cryptos, they have treated FTX like family, causing many to argue that FTX was being groomed and set up by the SEC to monopolize the crypto market.
00:04:33.000FTX was an exchange that had a bright sheen on it.
00:04:39.000It was led by a CEO that was often on Capitol Hill and being photographed with regulators and lawmakers.
00:04:46.000And so there was this sense that the exchange was very buttoned up.
00:04:50.000Cryptocurrency has the potential to strip power from the central banking system, and that makes it a major threat.
00:04:57.000As this story unfolds, don't be surprised if this mess becomes the catalyst for government overreach into cryptocurrencies.
00:05:06.000The Journal reporting the CEO allegedly using customer money from FTX to fund risky bets at his other company, a hedge fund called Alameda.
00:05:15.000Many people believe that this will definitely set back the crypto industry for years.
00:05:21.000You know, this is a tale as old as time to some degree.
00:05:23.000Some young charismatic guy in Bermuda shorts with the floppy hair charmed the 20 best investors in the world.
00:05:30.000Rebecca, the big question here, was this a mistake by the founders or a crime?
00:05:34.000Well, that's a question the regulators will ultimately have to answer here.
00:05:38.000Reporting for InfoWars, this is Greg Reese.
00:06:42.000We count votes until all Democrats win, and then we declare the winner.
00:06:47.000Joe Hoft with his deep dive into the election systems and how they're being used to rig elections.
00:06:56.000That with Joe Hoff from the Gateway Pundit at 1230.
00:06:59.000And then Ben Armstrong, BitBoy Crypto, big crypto expert, to join and discuss the FTX scandal.
00:07:14.000But there's so much breaking now on all these different fronts, and I think that the average American is really beginning to wake up and realize what's going on.
00:07:25.000I think between FTX scandal, money laundering for the Democrat Party, and all of these election shenanigans that always favor the Democrat Party, The average American is waking up and realize who are the bad guys, who are the good guys.
00:07:42.000The brainwashed people who are just in a total trance at this point, under complete mind control, they're just gone.
00:07:49.000They just are in the reality that is force-fed to them.
00:07:52.000They are in the reality that is presented to them, and they consume it every day without any second thought.
00:08:02.000But to the rest of us that can still think, that can still see, And still have a will to be free and prosper into the future, I think things are getting pretty clear.
00:08:16.000And what is amazing about the current dichotomy of the American political debate is that the conservative side is frustrated and upset that the leftist liberal side Will not react to the truth.
00:08:40.000Whether it's the Hunter Biden story, whether it's all the election shenanigans, whether it's this FTX deal that'll be the latest thing.
00:08:51.000Conservatives are frustrated that liberals won't recognize and react to the truth.
00:09:00.000Whereas liberals, leftists, democrats are angry, frustrated, and upset that you won't react to their lies.
00:09:08.000Whether it's Russian collusion, or you're an election denier when they have denied every presidential election that they've lost in the 21st century.
00:09:19.000So the average American, the person that can still see, can still think, is realizing this.
00:09:25.000Now that doesn't mean they're going to become right-wingers or conservatives or anything.
00:09:28.000They're just going to know who the bad guys are.
00:09:30.000They're just going to have their eyes open to start asking the right questions and maybe getting the answers.
00:09:34.000Elon Musk might be a good example, which is why They're going to be going after Elon Musk.
00:09:43.000The Justice Department, the Biden administration is going to be aggressively going after Elon Musk more so than they will after the FTX deal with those criminals because they were Democrats.
00:09:57.000And Elon Musk has said as much recently in public statements.
00:10:04.000So we'll be covering that and they do have they do have basically some anvils over Elon Musk's head right now that my guess is behind the scenes some form of a government entity or Democrat entity is basically giving Elon Musk the wink and the nod saying look you play ball with us these anvils we have over your head here that we could cut the rope at any minute are going to fall and crush you if you don't.
00:11:23.000And the Republican leadership of the McLosers, McConnell, McCarthy, and McDaniel, The McLoos team, they're more focused on getting rid of Donald Trump, and for the last two years have been working behind the scenes trying to figure out how to get rid of Donald Trump after the midterms that they let Georgia slip out of their hands, they let Arizona slip out of their hands, and they're letting Nevada get stolen in broad daylight.
00:11:51.000They've already given up Pennsylvania, they've already given up Michigan.
00:11:54.000Miracle win in Wisconsin, but I think there's a reason for that, we'll explain with Joe Hoft.
00:12:03.000But the good news is, and we will be mentioning, or getting deeper into this story today, is that the Republican leadership that is, has now an expiration date of yesterday.
00:12:14.000And we opened up the milk carton and took one whiff and said, yep, this is rotten, this is spoiled, give it the toss.
00:12:24.000And so Mitch McConnell, Kevin McCarthy, and Ronald McDaniel really thought they could pull this off.
00:12:29.000They really thought that they could have a complete disaster of a midterm elections that should have been much more successful for Republicans.
00:12:35.000And then immediately on the Wednesday after the election day...
00:12:40.000Take the long knives out for Donald Trump.
00:12:43.000You really think we wouldn't notice that?
00:12:44.000You really think we wouldn't realize what you were up to all of these years?
00:13:30.000There is a hostile takeover of the Republican Party.
00:13:33.000And now, quite frankly, it appears that the establishment has made the decision even easier for us Moving forward, which is in this current window of time, we've got to support Donald Trump.
00:13:48.000And I'm not saying he's the best candidate, and I'm not saying he hasn't made big mistakes, and I'm not saying that we've got issues to clear up here, but clearly at this point, the deep state and the establishment want Trump out of the picture, and More importantly, he is going to have to be the one that is the head of this hostile takeover, this populist takeover of the Republican Party.
00:14:16.000And thank God, Ron DeSantis never took the bait.
00:14:21.000Thank God Ron DeSantis is just keeping his head down, doing a great job in Florida, and Trump is basically just puffing up his chest and he's like a bull in a china shop at this point.
00:14:33.000And so maybe it's not the best way to go about it.
00:14:36.000But here's what I think the long-term plan is.
00:14:41.000If they can't separate Trump from his voters and his base, and they can't get a DeSantis or a Yunkin or someone else to step up and run against Trump, the Democrats will go for an indictment and an arrest probably within the next year.
00:15:20.000They're watching, they're finally paying attention, they've kind of looked away from the football game, and looked away from the bread and circus, and looked away from the Kim Kardashian butt, and they're watching how their country's being stolen, and they're watching how Democrats are above the law, and more people are now putting skin in the game.
00:15:39.000So despite all the bad political news, I do think there's a silver lining to all of this, and it always had to get to this point, didn't it?
00:15:46.000I'm going to get into all of the headlines now involving the 2022 midterm elections that are ongoing!
00:15:55.000You thought elections worked like this.
00:15:58.000You show up, you vote, your vote is counted just like everyone else.
00:18:01.000So the debate for the Republican Party now needs to be, are we going to stop this?
00:18:05.000And are we going to have a serious push for in-person, day-of voting, paper ballots?
00:18:14.000Which is the only way to stop this from continuing, this madness, this month-long election season madness where we keep counting votes until we like the outcome.
00:18:25.000Or does the Republican Party say, okay, that's an unwinnable fight.
00:18:34.000Instead, let's just play by the new rules.
00:18:36.000And Republicans just send out millions of mail-in ballots to everybody and their dogs.
00:18:41.000And what the Republicans should have done this midterm election season, but, you know, they don't listen here at InfoWars.
00:18:48.000They don't listen to the voices out there that give them good advice.
00:18:51.000They keep going back to the same establishment hacks that suck their toes.
00:18:57.000No, what the Republicans should have been doing is exactly what the Democrats were doing.
00:19:00.000This is why they brag about the youth turnout for Democrats, because they had all of their candidates campaign on college campuses, specifically targeting that vote, and then they had voting registration booths set up, and they had early voting stations set up right there at the event.
00:19:25.000So, if you want to give up the hope of fair elections, one person, one vote, in-day voting, which sadly might have to be the case, then you have got to take the same measurements and actions that the Democrats are to drum up as many votes they possibly can from people who normally wouldn't vote and before election day.
00:19:55.000And by the way, if you play this game, you win.
00:19:58.000Because the biggest rallies for Democrats were happening on college campuses with the youth.
00:20:08.000They would usually get a couple hundred people.
00:20:10.000And again, like I said, then they register you to vote, then you go vote early right across the street.
00:20:16.000Now, Republicans have rally sizes 20, 30, 40 times bigger than Democrats.
00:20:24.000So imagine a Trump rally with Scott Pressler outside registering people to vote and across the street an early voting center at a Trump rally.
00:20:41.000And the Democrats are doing this across the country with their midterm candidates, but in particularly the college students that are voting for the first time.
00:20:53.000And they would get, probably, they probably were able to siphon about 1,000, 1,500, maybe even 2,000 votes with this phenomenon at college campuses that they went to, like University of Texas, Austin.
00:21:09.000So that's the debate the Republican Party, if it wants to find a way to win, should be having right now.
00:21:14.000Do we push hard to actually return our election, our elections to being fair?
00:21:23.000With in-person voting, day of voting, paper ballots?
00:21:27.000Or do we just say, no point in trying to save that system, let's just cheat like the Democrats and be better at it than they are?
00:22:40.000You don't know what the Democrats are doing?
00:22:42.000You don't think that they're going to give you the exact number of percent that you think Carrie Lake needs, and then it's just going to be a little bit short in the end?
00:25:43.000Because, you know, we want to stop gun crime, and we highlight the gun crimes, and we blame the Republicans and the NRA, and we say we should take the guns, but we never mention what goes on in Chicago every weekend.

00:27:42.000All right, let's get back into the election headlines here.
00:27:48.000Maricopa election officials launched a PAC in 2021 to stop MAGA candidates.
00:27:57.000And that's the Republican establishment that was also working with the Democrat Party in the midterm elections to make Trump-backed candidates look bad.
00:28:09.000And that attack is ongoing today with Trump-backed candidates that actually did well in the midterms.
00:28:17.000Now having their House races, the votes still being tallied, conveniently, right up until the Democrat takes the lead.
00:28:26.000And so now you hear them saying, oh, the Democrats might take the House.
00:28:29.000Well, sure, they're counting votes for... We're now a week later!
00:28:34.000They just keep finding Democrat votes!
00:29:39.000When election day became election month, mail-in ballots replacing in-person voters, the electoral world changed forever, and it's not changing back.
00:29:48.000Democrats, experts in anything government-related, Drove states to change laws, increase voting delays, and loosen voter standards.
00:30:44.000The ballot gathering system was frictionless until 2020.
00:30:47.000Thousands of phantom addresses inhabited every state's voter list.
00:30:52.000Clever leftists built a national system.
00:30:54.000Eric Now used by about 30 states to make sure voter rolls protected phantoms, using in-your-face messaging, Eric claimed it was a resource to keep voter rolls clean.
00:31:09.000The once frictionless ballot gathering apparatus was challenged in every state as voter integrity teams, citizens at kitchen tables picked apart voter rolls.
00:31:19.000They quickly found tens of thousands of dead or moved voters.
00:31:23.000There were innumerable addresses where no voter could possibly live.
00:31:27.000For the first time, there was pushback against ballot gathering.
00:31:30.000Citizens demanded voter rolls be cleaned and addresses be real.
00:31:34.000In too many cases, affidavits with photographs of an empty lot where several voters claimed to live failed to convince a judge to action.
00:32:51.000It got caught by Project Veritas and other journalists.
00:32:56.000Where dozens of ballots would go to a parking lot where nobody resides.
00:33:04.000And this would happen hundreds of times over.
00:33:09.000And then you can trace those ballots, and those ballots end up being cast as mail-in ballots at one of the mail-in ballot drop boxes.
00:33:20.000I mean, if you can't see how mail-in ballots and mail-in ballot drop boxes are being used for fraud and cheating, you're just not being honest, are you?
00:33:32.000You're just not being honest whatsoever.
00:33:35.000But here's the amazing thing about the liberal left that I do give them credit for.
00:33:38.000They are somehow spiritually, cosmically connected because they all lie together in unison, and they don't even have to communicate while they do it.
00:33:47.000Like, they all know they're cheating in these elections, but they don't have to talk about it, they just all know it.
00:33:52.000So as I'm continuing to cover all the election news, And we'll continue to focus on Arizona with Matt Baker coming up and then the overall election with Joe Hoft as well.
00:34:06.000Biden is embarrassing himself and the country.
00:34:11.000Meeting with Xi Jinping and fumbling around and muttering and stumbling through press conferences is just a total embarrassment.
00:34:56.000Kevin McCarthy sidled himself up next to Donald Trump, pretended to be an ally, and then basically just went mute and went limp when we needed him the most.
00:35:35.000Whether Kevin McCarthy is a snake in the grass, trying to get himself close to Trump, or whether he is just, he likes Trump, but he's just a weak Republican squish.
00:35:47.000Either way, he's got to go from a leadership role.
00:35:49.000But I think there'll be a struggle there.
00:35:51.000With McConnell, I don't think McConnell will have any backing.
00:35:53.000McConnell's pretty much done his final deed.
00:35:56.000McConnell's last deed as the Senate Minority Leader was to sabotage MAGA and sabotage Donald Trump and sabotage the Republicans in the midterm to blame Donald Trump.
00:38:26.000And so, that's why You know, I haven't really gotten in.
00:38:31.000I've covered the third-party phenomenon every once in a while, but the self-righteousness of libertarians over the last week has been extremely distasteful.
00:38:41.000Specifically from the Libertarian leadership, I don't mean to make a blanket statement, because some Libertarians got the big picture, like in Arizona, where the Libertarian, a week or two before the election, bowed out and endorsed Blake Masters.
00:38:55.000That would be the classy thing to do if you were the Libertarians at this point.
00:39:30.000Because really, I think the Libertarian leadership knows that in states like Georgia and Pennsylvania, where the Libertarian vote could have put the Republican over the edge, and instead a Democrat gun-grabber, tax-raiser got in, I think they genuinely feel bad about it, and so their copium is to sit here and point at Republicans and lash out.
00:39:48.000But no, the Libertarian Party should have dropped out of their races, endorsed the Republican candidates, even saying, hey, we don't really like the Republicans, they've done X, Y, and Z, but you know what, they align closer to our values with Democrats, and we don't want to elect Democrat gun grabbers and tax raisers.
00:40:03.000No, instead they said, haha, Republicans, you couldn't even beat Democrats, you put up banned candidates.
00:42:33.000In the dream world, because here's the problem though, you can't assume anything in the future, but in the dream world, I think the best way to go about this Taking things at as much of face value as you can, which is almost zero, but for the sake of this argument, I think the ideal situation is Trump 2024 should win, and then DeSantis 2028, and now you're looking at at least eight or twelve years of Republican Party rule that will boom the economy,
00:43:17.000Take care of the southern border and just get us back on the right track.
00:43:22.000And so that's why the entire establishment is coming after Trump right now.
00:43:25.000Nancy Pelosi says a Trump 2024 bid would be bad news for the country.
00:43:29.000Oh, my support of Trump just goes up a little bit.
00:43:33.000Trump wanted IRS investigation of his foes.
00:44:32.000The globalists are in an absolute panic right now.
00:44:40.000They are attacking and suing and censoring and spying on and engaging in bullying and physical attacks against populist conservatives and Christians, not just in America, but worldwide.
00:44:52.000And their number one most hated enemy in the media is InfoWars because we know the globalists' number We know their operation, we know their modus operandi, and we know how to take them down peacefully.
00:45:04.000We've got great products that fund the operation that also are incredibly powerful and the highest quality for your immune system and more.
00:45:11.000We have the biggest sale of the year going right now.
00:47:06.000Something like one in a thousand people have died.
00:47:08.000We don't know how many more will die, but we're into double figures of millions who've definitely been killed as a consequence of this policy.
00:47:15.000I've not been a religious person, but I'm absolutely clear in my mind the only people, the kind of planning and thinking it takes to have done what has happened, are people who would worship Satan.
00:47:46.000Gen Z, the 18-29 age group, gave 28 points to the Democrats.
00:47:52.000Swayed by the fear-mongering, Gen Z was more than happy to trade what's left of their future to their Marxist-Boomer counterparts who promised them student loan forgiveness and will now wag slavery in the form of universal basic income in their faces.
00:48:08.000Have you thought about where this is heading?
00:48:10.000This is heading to you having no life.
00:48:13.000To you spending your income on needs rather than treats and desires.
00:48:19.000Because you won't have any spare money left for those.
00:48:23.000They don't view you like a human being, these people.
00:48:26.000What we've got left is a government that's a middle management team for some higher power.
00:48:32.000And I think ultimately we will have to have some kind of universal basic income.
00:48:38.000Middle and working classes will be eroded and replaced with robots, AI and big corporations.
00:48:44.000And given a basic income, the old world is not coming back.
00:48:48.000A group of billionaires are deciding how the rest of the world should live, and they have the ear of the government that claims to represent you.
00:48:55.000The abortion factor saw 37 points go to the Democrats from unwed mothers.
00:49:01.000And did Trump's shadow loom too large over a Republican Party rising from his ashes?
00:49:07.000Or are these merely excuses to distract the CNN exit polls results that reveal that 75% of voters said the country is on the wrong track?
00:49:18.000Overwhelming majority are angry about inflation and the economy.
00:49:22.000Biden and company will now ramp up the threats on anyone with an unshakable gut feeling after they witnessed once again the blatant, antiquated, and openly rigged, quote, incompetent, end quote, voting system.
00:49:36.000So you're telling me I should vote John Fetterman, I should vote Joshua Speier?
00:50:13.000It's getting more effective every day.
00:50:15.000Continue to shop at InfoWarsStore.com and we'll continue to stay here blasting out the truth!
00:50:21.000All right, we are now joined by Matt Baker, slave to liberty, and he is out in Arizona, Maricopa County, and he was boots on the ground talking to voters out at polling locations, so I just wanted to bring him on today.
00:50:38.000We'll talk about what he learned, what voters are saying, what's the vibe there, boots on the ground.
00:51:18.000Everybody's really a very Republican person out here.
00:51:21.000You know, and it's funny that you say that because, you know, I'm sitting here in Texas looking at the Democrat after it turned Texas blue.
00:51:37.000And I'm thinking like Arizona looks pretty good.
00:51:40.000Arizona is looking like it's going red, looking like good leadership.
00:51:43.000But no, no, it looks like the Democrats are trying to stomp that out.
00:51:48.000Yeah exactly like I mean I'm you know it's very hot out here so I live in the perfect climate of California which is the breeding ground of why they can get away with so much crap in California because they know people don't really want to leave now out here they can say hey come over here we've got all these great laws and we're not a bunch of leftist scumbags and so people were moving out here and dealing with the high temperatures and the high electric bills from cooling their houses but I gotta tell you the place is really nice the idea that they can't vote Count these votes is absolutely ridiculous.
00:52:17.000The infrastructure here is like some of the best I've seen around.
00:52:25.000Yeah, it's not like they're trying to gather, you know, votes from old Mary Sue's, you know, chicken coop and bring them on down the road to Bob's, you know, you know, little shack and count them.
00:52:35.000I mean, they have beautiful infrastructure, beautiful roads.
00:52:38.000I mean, the idea that they can't pull this off like a first world is absolutely BS.
00:52:43.000And the only reason, as we all know, is because they're going to challenge until they win.
00:52:50.000So what are people on the ground saying about their experience boating with any of the anomalies, the machine breakdowns?
00:52:57.000I mean, what's the word from the people on the streets when you talk to them?
00:53:02.000Well, I've met several people that have said that they had trouble getting their vote to scan and it was put in the so-called box three.
00:53:08.000And then these votes have to be, I think they're called healed, because then they have to go through and check them for signatures and this and that.
00:53:15.000The problem is the human beings who are then now in charge of counting those votes in these different precincts.
00:53:21.000I actually, it's funny, after our little chat the other day, I haven't listened to Michael Savage in a long time, but I just tuned into him the other day and he had this amazing thing on about how the voting machines can be made to swing one way or another simply by just making the sensitivity of the camera for the dot.
00:53:39.000If you say, oh, it's got to be above this resolution or below that resolution, if they tweak that in the different counties to make it more sensitive, it kicks out more ballots.
00:53:49.000And it sounds like we were listening to the same podcast, because it also talks about how they can use these little tweaks, like for example, the felt pen, right?
00:53:58.000And then the machine doesn't read it correctly, and then a human has to count it, and oh, if there's no oversight of that human, all of a sudden they can just mark those ballots however they want!
00:54:08.000Yeah, and then they inevitably do it in these Democratic centers.
00:54:11.000Like if you go downtown, the place that I went, I don't know if you see the rest of that video, right around the corner from this counting place is this massive Sheriff's Department, which literally looks like a battleship.
00:54:23.000Like the front of it is coming at you.
00:54:26.000And then one block from there is the largest homeless encampment.
00:54:30.000I don't know, maybe I've seen as big in LA, but nothing quite like this because usually in LA, there'll be a street That, you know, goes on and on forever.
00:54:38.000This is like a full-on, like, blocks and blocks with cross streets and, like, it's like a whole area of a swap meet of homeless people with, like, pigeons eating trash off the street, people yelling and screaming at you if you slow down to, like, videotape and stuff.
00:55:11.000I was like, hey, well now they've taken control.
00:55:13.000Pretty soon you're going to start seeing homeless people.
00:55:15.000I guess I just wasn't in the right area.
00:55:17.000And so this area that they are doing the vote counting, as you can see, has been infected with this liberal scum concept that it's a good idea to have people living on the streets in squalor as part of their human rights or something.
00:57:06.000And when you consider that before COVID, that wasn't a thing unless you had a specific, you know, you had to be out of the state, you had to be sick, you had to get a specific ballot, you know, you had to apply to vote not in person and not on the day.
00:57:19.000A lot of the local patriots were complaining that I had seen some footage of that were at that ballot location area the day before.
00:57:28.000He kept on mentioning they had a bill.
00:57:31.000It was HB 2289, which was going to make it to where it was only in-person voting on the day of.
00:57:38.000And it was going to limit it down to only people who are in the military or people who Are in hospital or something of that nature to where they physically cannot show up and vote.
00:57:50.000And apparently one of the senators, what's her name?
00:57:53.000Wendy Rogers was supposed to be on board with that.
00:57:56.000And she actually called for this protest and then didn't even show up.
00:58:00.000And when the local sheriff threatened her with the bill for all the extra police he was going to have to bring in because it was dangerous.
00:58:07.000Then she basically called them off and they were all sitting there like idiots in the street going, what did you do?
00:58:19.000So this Wendy Rogers didn't back the SB 2289, even though apparently they had the signatures to have, and it was all, you know, they had the votes apparently in the signatures to at least put it on the ballot and get it to move forward so that they could have, you know, Real elections.
00:58:37.000I think like maybe Florida may be able to maintain because it's almost too late for some of these areas like You're saying, oh, we should get an electoral college for the states, which I think was an amazing idea that you had.
00:58:49.000However, those states are already run by Democrats, and they're going to be like, yeah, we're good.
00:59:51.000I believe there's going to be a battle for Arizona.
00:59:55.000I don't think we're going to get the results we want, but I do think there's going to be calls for audits, recounts, review of the law, the voting process, everything.
01:00:04.000Because the Republicans in Arizona, Kerry Lake, Blake Masters, Mark Fincham, Abe Hammaday, they have a fight in them.
01:00:15.000It's gone and dead in Pennsylvania and Michigan, sadly.
01:00:20.000Now, maybe that can change, but that's the way I see it right now.
01:00:23.000And you were mentioning in the last segment, Matt Baker with us, Slave to Liberty, you were mentioning the rally where Wendy Rogers invited people out and then didn't show.
01:00:32.000Not sure what was going on with that, but I'm seeing that there are multiple rallies.
01:00:36.000There's been a lot of on-the-street activism, a lot of on-the-street rallying and protesting in Arizona.
01:00:49.000What about the people, because a lot of these videos are making their way around the internet, people saying, we don't trust the election, it was rigged, I went to vote, it didn't work, the machine shut down.
01:00:59.000So what do you make of the street activism and what do you make of the Republican candidates and how do you think this fight is going to go in the coming weeks when they finally declare that not a single Republican won in Arizona?
01:01:15.000Well, they're going to have to take it to court.
01:01:16.000The problem is, is who's going to be the judge?
01:01:19.000You know, and they already, when they, when the votes were getting kicked out of the machines, they already called the judge and said, oh, shouldn't we have some extra time to, uh, to have people vote?
01:01:29.000Because a lot of these people weren't able to vote because they were in line and they got told to go home because the machines either didn't have paper or they weren't counting the votes.
01:01:36.000And then the judge said, Nope, we're good.
01:02:09.000Like, your kids are gonna be getting told about transgender stuff and the race,
01:02:14.000you know, the critical race theory is gonna be pushed hard.
01:02:16.000My buddy, who I'm here for, he, I used to work on his house in San Diego,
01:02:21.000and he left because he couldn't deal with the schools in San Diego.
01:02:24.000Now he's out there and left as a refugee.
01:02:27.000Bought this beautiful house, we're fixing it up, and now the politics is gonna change.
01:02:31.000He's gonna be basically without a country because, you know, his kids are now gonna be,
01:02:36.000This stuff's gonna start infiltrating into the schools and the economy.
01:02:41.000And I wouldn't be surprised if the housing market might actually take a hit.
01:02:45.000I shouldn't say that because he doesn't want his house price to go down.
01:02:48.000But I mean, a lot of people might be considering moving out now and where to go, because this wads the haven from the West Coast.
01:02:54.000I mean, the West Coast now, you've pretty much got nowhere to run to.
01:02:57.000You know, if you don't go to Texas or Florida, I mean, I don't I don't know what your what your plan is at this point in the game.
01:03:03.000Anyone who is in red states or even a tiny town, you have to make laws to make sure that the counting gets done.
01:03:13.000Don't just say, oh, that's been done forever and it's okay.
01:03:15.000Cause no, they're going to get a Democrat weirdo in there and they're going to start taking over that little town.
01:03:20.000And they're probably going to use money from these crypto Ponzi schemes that they have around the world to buy off officials and pay off different things.
01:03:27.000All of this Ponzi scheme money laundering stuff that's going on, it's like trickle-down economics with like Reaganomics.
01:03:35.000The infinite amount of fake money and the infinite amount of all of this Tyranny is just, is that the free money and the Ponzi scheme and the money laundering is basically the fuel for tyranny.
01:04:05.000We need people to actually make sure that they're the real people who are actually voting, that they're qualified to vote.
01:04:11.000You know, I mean, you have to do everything you can to save these remaining areas.
01:04:15.000And if we can possibly flip some of these other areas back into smaller areas that they're not paying attention to.
01:04:20.000One thing I gotta say is people, we always say on the right, we're like, Democrats are dumb.
01:04:25.000No, the Democrat foot soldiers are dumb because they believe whatever their overlords tell them.
01:04:30.000The people that run the Democrat Party are the most conniving, manipulative scumbags ever to walk here.
01:04:36.000Oh, they're very politically savvy, criminally, yes.
01:04:40.000And I think, to get back to what we were saying the other day about DeSantis, and by the way, love you Laura Luma, I was a little bit heated the other day about that.
01:04:49.000I think we've got to be very careful when we talk about the Trump-DeSantis thing, because for all we know, they're just trying to push pressure on the base to now throw DeSantis under the bus, and then they come out and indict Trump, and then now who have we got?
01:05:05.000When we know that DeSantis is a great candidate, we know Trump is a great candidate, and if it was poll to poll, Trump would probably just win and he'd be the candidate anyway, and we're not going to be voting Whether it's DeSantis or Trump in the general election, we're all going to vote for whoever the right-wing candidate is.
01:05:22.000So if they battle it out, may the best man win, now if they can just do it without destroying each other's careers in the meantime, because they could very easily just have all the right-wing people I know are already going, DeSantis is this, DeSantis is that, and they're doing all the opposition research to undermine him as a great candidate, which could be our only hope if Trump gets defeated or taken out or jailed or something by the
01:05:46.000deep state. So once they get that in, we have to be very careful. Don't call names to our fellow
01:06:13.000Not necessarily the people or the world, but he owes it to be honorable, to give Trump first hand.
01:06:18.000Trump took the bait, or he's chewing through the buffet of bait like Lizzo or something.
01:06:23.000But I think it might be a political strategy of his to just get this out of the way ahead of the primary process, to just come in swinging and say, all right, who wants to fight me?
01:07:02.000Ladies and gentlemen, before we come back with our next great guest, Joe Hoff, remember InfoWarsTore.com is how we do everything we do here.
01:07:12.000We don't have big billionaire donors like George Soros.
01:07:14.000We don't have big corporate sponsors, Hollywood sponsors.
01:07:16.000We have you shopping at InfoWarsTore.com for great products.
01:07:20.000like vitamin mineral fusion and I'm telling you you look at this I mean I've got the supplement facts right here Over 100% of your daily value of vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, biotin.
01:07:41.000I mean the list just goes on and on here.
01:07:43.000It's got 1000 mg of glycine, 100 mg L-glutamine.
01:08:13.000And they won't be drinking the toxic energy drinks or soda pop.
01:08:16.000They'll be drinking vitamin mineral fusion.
01:08:18.000And you'll be supporting free speech in the process by shopping at Infowarsstore.com.
01:08:24.000Well, it's incredible, folks, as we sit here.
01:08:27.000They're still counting votes in Oregon, and California, and Colorado, and Maryland, in House races where Republicans have a stronghold and are winning.
01:08:36.000But magically, the perfect number of votes are coming in for the Democrats to win!
01:09:44.000To me, it's a pretty obvious one because Arizona was a really energized red state.
01:09:49.000I mean, they were excited for their candidates, excited for this midterm election, and yet somehow the entire state falls flat and goes blue.
01:10:30.000And then all of a sudden the election day is a mess.
01:10:33.000And then all of a sudden, here we are, and you know, almost a week later now, they're still counting.
01:10:37.000And then like Jim reported this, this morning overnight, you know, they, according to a Democrat, there was 17% turnout for Democrats on election day.
01:10:48.000And yet we're seeing the results being, you know, 54% for Katie Hobbs, this, this corrupt Not likable woman who certified the stolen election of 2020.
01:11:03.000And who's still the Secretary of State overseeing this gubernatorial race?
01:11:10.000Yeah, she should have been, she should have recused herself a long, long time ago.
01:11:13.000But of course, she's a Soros girl and they have to make sure everything gets corrupted rightly so they can steal all these races.
01:11:31.000I think the thing about Carrie Lake is a lot of people think she's vice president, if not president material.
01:11:37.000She's very polished, very smart, very mega, a big Trump supporter, and just a logical, perhaps, person if he runs again as a vice president, if not even a president candidate.
01:11:50.000So they're trying to knock her out, and it doesn't make any sense.
01:11:54.000And so, you know this, so I want to share this before with you.
01:11:58.000I've done audits around the world, maybe two to three hundred audits.
01:12:01.000I was stationed in Hong Kong for a decade overseeing a An audit team over there done fraud audits, financial operational.
01:12:10.000I've earned 10 degrees designations and it's really easy to see first step in auditing is kind of look at your population, get a good definition of what it is and what the process is you're looking at the systems.
01:12:22.000And again, it's the same story from 2020.
01:12:26.000These high numbers immediately shock you and they're like, how can this be?
01:12:31.000If 17% dims are showing up and yet you're getting 54% for carry.
01:13:31.000I think they're going to fight this deal.
01:13:34.000I think they should and I think they ultimately should ask for a new election because this was fraudulent.
01:13:40.000Now, what I've heard about what happened on election day, I got a piece yesterday from some individuals and there's an IT guy out there that looked at this and what appears that they changed the size of the ballot and previously it was 19 inches long, now it's 20 inches.
01:13:59.000And so that worked fine for all these mail-in ballots, they had the machinery that would handle them.
01:14:04.000election day these machines that they're using on site apparently would only
01:14:08.000handle 19-inch paper so then they had to shrink the images down to 19 inches and
01:14:13.000then they tried to run through the tabulators the tabulators couldn't find
01:14:17.000the circles in the right spots or everything was getting spit out so they
01:14:21.000so is that it appears to be something intentional another just a mechanism to
01:14:26.000mess with and and steal the election because then they tell people throw your
01:14:30.000balance over here we'll be sure to get to them later you don't know if they are
01:14:34.000you don't know where these ballots are gone and then you end up with 54% for
01:14:39.000her And maybe you haven't heard this, because I heard that news about the new ballot length, it was kind of breaking this weekend, and this maybe gives you a better idea.
01:14:50.000I know that in Travis County, where I voted in Texas, they had the same thing where they expanded the length of the insert that you put in, but they knew that in advance, and so they knew they had to print out more paper than they normally do, so they had that ready to go.
01:15:05.000And even though the machines would run out of ink quicker because of the bigger paper, they had it all ready to go.
01:15:09.000I witnessed it in real time, it happening, and they were able to get everything lined up so that all the images were read properly.
01:15:15.000So, it wasn't only Arizona that changed the size of this, it was only Arizona that had problems.
01:15:25.000And I saw somebody else send something out on Twitter overnight, too.
01:15:28.000I haven't written about this, but they were pointing out in the manual all these things that are missing, conveniently, and then they didn't prepare properly.
01:15:37.000So who would have guessed it, especially knowing that the Republicans are the group that's going to show up on Election Day?
01:16:38.000And that's kind of like auditing one-on-one, too.
01:16:41.000And I've seen this, where auditors will go in and do an audit, and they'll come up with a recommendation on how to change things for the better, and it doesn't address the root cause.
01:16:52.000And the root cause in our elections is those machines.
01:16:55.000And of course these absentee ballots, and the voter rolls, and the people, and the processes.
01:17:04.000Everything is broken and we didn't address some of these big things.
01:17:07.000That's why we're seeing these massive vote drops throughout the country in many of these key races.
01:17:19.000When you look at this Edison data feed that shows the up-to-date results, you'll see all of a sudden Democrat gets a massive drop of ballots, 20, 30, 40, 50,000 ballots compared to the Republicans, you know, fraction of that amount.
01:17:36.000And of course, if you went through that with a fine tooth comb, you probably found out that the neighbor's dog Buster voted for the Democrat.
01:17:44.000You probably found out your great aunt voted for the Democrat.
01:17:47.000You probably found out your other neighbor's pet cat You got a little pet cat voting Democrat, too.
01:17:52.000If you went through it, you'd probably find that.
01:18:21.000She shouldn't be the governor if that's the level of, uh...
01:18:25.000If that's the level of leadership she has, but you mentioned something earlier that resonated with me, because I feel the same way, and that's I'm not feeling near the amount of frustration that the mean of the Republicans and their voters seem to be facing, because we knew this was coming, and it seems like the frustration is really going downstream now, Joe.
01:18:48.000It seems that the frustrations that we've had for decades, for decades, dealing with the corruption in this country, Is almost like numbed us to an extent or were punch drunk maybe in this fight and the frustration is now downstream.
01:19:01.000And so you kind of mentioned that earlier maybe expand on that a little bit because that's what I'm saying is that you know the average Republican voter is now Viewed as a conspiracy theorist because they're asking basic questions about why their elections don't work or how it's possible that a candidate that doesn't even campaign or do rallies or a debate can beat a candidate with huge momentum and energy behind her, Hobbs versus Lake.
01:19:23.000So it seems to me that the frustration is moving downstream, which what happens with that is the frustration hits first and then the reality hits second and then the activism is what the conclusion finally is.
01:19:36.000That's kind of the process I'm seeing here.
01:19:41.000And yeah, and then to clarify too, we've had some of these leaders in the Republican Party and over the last couple of days, and some have said terrible candidates, which I thought was horrible.
01:19:53.000Especially if I was one of these guys who ran and gave up a year of my life trying to win one of these races, then to be told by some slime ball that I wasn't good enough and that's why I lost.
01:20:10.000But then there's others like Molly Hemingway that came out and said that, well, we have to join this ballot, absentee ballot, mail-in ballot strategy and change our strategy And I thought, well that's not real either.
01:20:24.000That absentee ballot stuff is massive fraud.
01:20:28.000We can't do that because, and I don't think she fully understands it, because this isn't because that they've figured out how to get their people to mail in their ballots.
01:20:39.000It's that they've figured out that they can do more fraud when they do mail-in ballots.
01:20:44.000And I don't think Molly Hemingway understands that.
01:20:46.000And yet this is the same people that, you know, did the Mueller exam on Trump for four years and attempted coup d'etat on President Trump.
01:20:54.000It's the same people that have been involved in so many corrupt activities over the last few years, decades, and you know, the list goes on and on
01:21:03.000and on. And the 2020 election, and now here we are 22, the same thing. That's not the
01:21:09.000answer. The answer is we've got to first get rid of these bogus names off of these voter rolls. And
01:21:16.000there's a group in Wisconsin that wrote to me and I put it up this morning at the Gateway Pundit,
01:21:21.000and they're bragging about their work, but Wisconsin didn't go so well. And I asked them,
01:21:25.000they said, well, because they wouldn't accept our changes in their voter rolls. But in the states that
01:21:30.000did, we clearly cleaned house, which Texas was one of them, I guess. >> Yeah, Texas and
01:21:36.000Yeah, and so they were able to get those voter rolls up to date so they can't steal because I swear to God, you know, you said you were saying before the break about somebody's cat, somebody's dog.
01:22:51.000And our media has done this incredible job of Of stealing the true picture, except for outlets like yours and the Gateway Pundit and others that are trying to get the truth out.
01:23:22.000Well, and you bring this up because I do think this is the debate, and I think Hemingway
01:23:27.000is kind of throwing the red meat out there, but I do think this is the debate here.
01:23:32.000If the goal is to get us back to in-person day of voting paper ballots, well then you have to measure out the best path to get there.
01:23:42.000And so I kind of throw this out there to have the debate, I'll get your take on it, even though I kind of already know where you stand.
01:23:47.000I mean, I think the quickest way to get there would be, the Republicans need to do what the Democrats are doing, and they need to have big Trump rallies, okay?
01:23:55.000Have a Trump rally, 20-30,000 people, have a voter registration booth right there at the rally, and have it right across the place from an early voting center.
01:24:03.000And just send 20,000 people to vote, early vote, at every Republican rally.
01:24:08.000Oh, the Democrats will be against it then, won't they?
01:24:12.000Yeah, well, I think, quite frankly, I think that's a great idea.
01:24:45.000They can figure that out with a simple query and then they drop 100,000 votes for a candidate or
01:24:53.00010,000 or whatever is needed and they know who to register on that voter system and show that
01:25:02.000they voted. It's just all a big sham. It's a joke. So, yeah, I agree.
01:25:08.000But the thing that grabs me about Hemingway and stuff, I don't think she recognizes that this election was stolen.
01:25:14.000She wrote that book, Rigged, and I think her summary thesis was that, well, Zuckerberg paid more money and he just outpaid the Republicans.
01:25:42.000It's just like in Brazil, and now it's just being proven again with the millions of people in the street.
01:25:46.000The one difference between Brazil and their stolen election and ours is that the military is actually on Bolsonaro's side, whereas here, not so much with Trump.
01:25:54.000But let me just get your two-minute analysis, because you talk about the theft and the money.
01:25:59.000We just found out with FTX, the money laundering that the Democrats did through Ukraine and FTX to just take your money, put it right back in their own pockets.
01:26:14.000Well thanks, and you guys have done a great job keeping up on that too.
01:26:17.000I noticed some articles of yours over the weekend.
01:26:22.000So the way I look at it, this guy created this FTX and took people's money, promised that he was investing it in whatever cryptocurrencies they requested, and then basically used the money for something else, and then he creates a big investment arm, and then he's working with all the Dems, and you've got him at the With the Clinton Foundation at a recent event sitting right next to Bill Clinton, and then you've got him donating 40 million to this election, maybe more than anybody other than maybe, I think, George Soros at this election, you've got him.
01:26:57.000Donating to the to the Bidens and and you know, and I think that's really the smaller part of the story.
01:27:04.000I think the bigger part is that we were sending billions of dollars over to the Ukraine and then somehow Ukraine gets involved with FTX and then we end up working.
01:27:27.000I think the big story here is that of these billions that went overseas, a lot came back through cryptocurrency, which is then hard to hard to follow and track.
01:27:39.000And there's a lot of people with some big, big bank accounts and or cryptocurrency, you know, wallets full of this Ukrainian dollars that we sent over there for the Ukrainians.
01:27:50.000And then, you know, the people in Ukraine, no wonder they're getting crushed by Russia.
01:28:50.000You forget to take the X3, and you know it makes your life better, and you know it makes you healthier, and you constantly forget, and when you remember to do it, you're a lot healthier.
01:28:58.000This stuff will blow you away, plus it funds our operation.

01:29:52.000The images that you see on the screen here, the FBI images of Pedophilia symbols that appear to be in the Almeida Research symbol and appear to be in the FSBF Twitter profile.
01:30:08.000Folks, that's just a coincidence, okay?
01:31:23.000You come out as a Liberal Democrat, you donate to Liberal Democrat causes, you are now above the law.
01:31:29.000So they'll investigate Elon Musk for the next two years, dealing with the Twitter thing, they'll investigate Tesla and SpaceX and all his other endeavors, and they will do nothing to the people that just stole billions of dollars and gave it to the Democrat Party and laundered money through Ukraine.
01:32:33.000Landmark trial involving Tesla autopilot weighs if man or machine at fault.
01:32:38.000Elon Musk trial opens to decide fate of his $56 billion Tesla pay.
01:32:43.000And then there's an issue they're investigating with SpaceX and everything.
01:32:47.000So here's the thing that Elon Musk has over his head.
01:32:51.000He's got these legal battles that are like anvils sitting over his head right now with Tesla, SpaceX, and other things.
01:32:58.000And the Deep State and the Democrats are basically saying, if you do what you're intending to do with Twitter, we're going to cut that rope and that anvil is going to smash you on the head.
01:33:08.000And if you continue to go anti-liberal, anti-woke, we're going to cut the other rope and that anvil is going to smash you on the head.
01:33:17.000And if you ever think that you're going to return free speech to Twitter, just know this.
01:33:22.000The moment you let Donald Trump, Alex Jones, and others back on Twitter is the moment that we will remove you from the Apple App Store and the moment we will remove you from the Google Play App Store.
01:33:34.000That's their That's what they've already done.
01:34:21.000And we're joined now by Ben Armstrong, BitBoyCrypto.com, BitBoy underscore crypto on Twitter.
01:34:31.000I mean, we knew the Democrats were laundering money through Ukraine.
01:34:34.000That was pretty obvious to anybody paying attention.
01:34:37.000But never saw the crypto exchange FTX being the money laundering front organization to do this.
01:34:45.000But you know, Ben, now that I'm kind of looking at and investigating it, and you know, I've never really been a big crypto commentator myself, but when I'm looking at it now, it was so obvious from the beginning.
01:34:56.000I mean, now that we're looking back on this, was the whole entire FTX scandal not sitting out there from the very beginning that this was going to be the case?
01:35:08.000I mean, it was sitting right in front of our eyes, right on our noses the entire time.
01:35:11.000And that's why a lot of us have a lot of egg on our face in the crypto world.
01:35:15.000Just for buying into what Sam Bankman Freed presented himself as, you know, he always tried to present himself as kind of like Can you figure, is he good?
01:35:24.000It was hard for us to ever really know until now.
01:35:28.000And you look back, if you look back at several of the projects that launched on FTX, ICP, Hasper, Aptos, New Genesis Protocol that was on Liquid.
01:35:40.000You look at all these projects and you realize that There were so many signs that this stuff was going on.
01:35:46.000There were so many projects that Sam Beckman Freed destroyed by shorting them to zero and creating a counterfeit supply on the exchange.
01:35:54.000It was a scam from the very, very, very beginning.
01:35:56.000And we're really just kind of getting down the rabbit hole.
01:35:59.000I mean, you know, once right now, what we're focused on, we're focused on like Cracking the egg here on what actually happened with the scam itself and of course you start moving into the Ukraine situation and the politics and the fact that look doesn't matter if you're Republican or Democrat what matters is is that
01:36:16.000Sam Bankman-Freed was literally using your customer funds to support both sides.
01:36:21.000Obviously, heavily tilted Democrat there, but he was supported Republicans with Democrats money, supported Democrats with Republicans money, and that right there is an absolute scam and a fraud within itself that should change some, you know, election donation and contribution laws.
01:36:36.000Well, and we'll see if it does, but just so the layman understands this, because not everybody is really up to date on how crypto works and all this stuff, so explain it to the layman here, myself included.
01:36:49.000Investors invest in crypto, they give their dollar, their U.S.
01:36:57.000They're supposed to have this big mass of capital that can at least back up some of their exchanges if people want to trade out or trade in or all of this stuff.
01:37:05.000And I guess organically, a bunch of people were demanding to pull out at the same time and they realized that there was no reserves?
01:37:19.000There's a tweet that we put out where we begged people to close their accounts and take money off FTX.
01:37:23.000We certainly think that we did have a certain amount of people that did withdraw to the point that they felt the crunch.
01:37:30.000But what actually happened is, is that with a lot of these exchanges, they just get so greed hungry that they end up borrowing the customer funds to make low leverage trades that they think will never go bust.
01:37:44.000But the thing about leverage is, you know, you're always at some point going to meet a liquidation, you know, or crazy stop loss is going to set you off.
01:37:51.000So what you're looking at is when you're on FTX and you're looking at the overall pool of funds on there, You actually did not, there was actually not assets there.
01:38:00.000Supposedly, there was $900 million worth of real assets and they were $9 billion in the hole.
01:38:05.000To understand the FTX fiasco, you have to understand Alameda Research, which is their VC arm that actually really got FTX funded and rolling in the beginning.
01:38:15.000They set off Caroline Ellison and Sam Bateman Freed to their kind of, you know, to the stage here.
01:38:21.000Is that there was a backdoor built into FTX so that when Alameda was hurting for funds or needed funds, they could reach into those customer assets and pull them directly over to what they were doing with their trades, make the money back and then put it back.
01:38:35.000You know, your classic Ponzi scheme is what it turned into.
01:38:37.000And eventually they couldn't put the money back.
01:38:39.000So what happened is we have been front running the story for weeks because just a fluke on how we ended up kind of getting wind of all this.
01:38:47.000Well, CZ, who is the founder of Binance, the largest exchange in the world, well, he got wind of the same stuff that we had gotten wind of.
01:38:54.000And when he found out, he immediately dumped, I think it was $500 million worth of FTT tokens.
01:39:04.000They had a coin called FTT that they created that really didn't serve a purpose on the website.
01:39:10.000People were like, you know, why is this really even a thing?
01:39:12.000Well, what they would do is they would wash trade FTT back and forth between FTX and Alameda Research.
01:39:19.000Every time they would do that, they would pump up the price a little bit and that kept their overall assets at a much higher amount because they were wash trading it.
01:39:28.000If you actually pulled FTT out of their portfolio, their portfolio would look very weak.
01:39:33.000Because it was so heavily invested in this coin that they pumped up the price up.
01:39:37.000Basically, the same thing the fiat system does in America is they just print money out of nothing.
01:40:06.000By the time that people started pulling their funds out, it was already frozen.
01:40:10.000We had millions of dollars and thousands of accounts closed in the weeks leading up to this.
01:40:14.000Like I said, we've been warning people about this for about six weeks or more.
01:40:18.000So it sounds like you probably saved a lot of people a lot of money on that deal.
01:40:23.000Now, given the information we have now, Do you think this whole thing was set up for failure from the beginning to eventually target crypto for regulation and government control?
01:40:35.000Or do you think, you know, there was a level of organic human activity here that forced us into the position we're in now, and now they're just using it to regulate crypto?
01:40:47.000Yeah, I certainly think that Washington has been totally fooled here by Sam Bankman-Fried.
01:40:52.000I think Gary Gensler in charge of the SEC, he's been meeting with Sam Bankman-Fried to talk about regulatory loopholes they can close.
01:40:58.000And, you know, kind of how this whole thing started between me and Sam is I actually had a bill or I do have a bill we're still trying to get funding for that creates a mechanism for smart crypto regulation.
01:41:07.000Hopefully will be public by the end of the month.
01:41:10.000And we went to FTX for funding for our bill.
01:41:12.000It's like $3.6 million to get this bill rolling.
01:41:15.000And through us contacting them is actually how we discovered what they were doing with regulation.
01:41:20.000We're trying to create a federal bit license.
01:41:22.000Bit license in New York, worst piece of crypto regulation in history.
01:41:25.000Sam wanted to control and corner the market on licensure for centralization in the United States, meaning Centralized Exchange CEO, he gets all the benefits.
01:41:35.000Peer-to-peer transactions and anything decentralized will go away.
01:41:38.000And so that's really what, you know, like a hound dog put us on this case in the very beginning.
01:41:42.000And so no, we've been told that basically people in Washington thought Sam Bankman Freed was the adult in the room when it came to crypto.
01:41:57.000I think him trying to set up crypto regulation and then finding out what a scammer he is.
01:42:02.000I think it ultimately kind of helps crypto in the end.
01:42:04.000I think we are going to get some smart crypto regulation.
01:42:07.000What we want in crypto is we want the ability for us to have our leaders, to have our leaders in the movement to be able to say their piece about what we feel like things need to look like in crypto.
01:42:43.000And what that means is you have companies like FTX that have to operate offshore and escape regulatory compliance here in the United States.
01:42:51.000They're going to continue to stay offshore until you create a mechanism that makes sense for crypto regulation.
01:42:57.000So if you really want to go back to who's responsible for all of this, it's really Gary Gensler with his dereliction of duty as head of the SEC.
01:43:04.000Well, and let's talk more about that on the other side of this break, because what I'm seeing happening now is whether or not there was an intention at the outset to use this to go after crypto regulation.
01:43:17.000This story, I think, has become such a it's gone from what would be a keyhole into political money laundering to now like a three story sliding glass window that even mainstream Republicans who try to be neutral like Greg Abbott are saying, hey, wait a second.
01:43:35.000Democrats money laundering millions maybe billions of dollars and then funding their campaigns in the midterms?
01:43:41.000I mean this should be massive criminal investigations and and whether Republicans involvement too I mean the whole thing should be investigated so I'm gonna get your response to that how you think this investigation should go and then I mean there are a lot of people listening in right now that have crypto that probably are wondering hey what what is it looking like for us right now we'll get into all of that with Ben Armstrong don't go anywhere You know, I will say this on the debate of whether or not this entire thing was planned for collapse as the excuse to bring in crypto.
01:44:10.000You know, from my experience, when they have something planned like this, as a planned collapse for control, they have all their Eyes dotted and T's crossed.
01:44:21.000And they did not have it on this deal, folks.
01:44:23.000I mean, there's real political blowback and there's going to be real political consequences.
01:44:40.000Well, OK, they do a lot of things that are obvious.
01:44:42.000But it's the direct connection to Ukraine and the midterm elections that it was so close to the chest, you feel like they did not plan on this thing going down.
01:44:52.000So I would err on the side of, no, this is a real organic blowback.
01:44:58.000This is going to have real organic political consequences here.
01:45:02.000And of course, the deep state, the government is going to try to use it to regulate as well.
01:45:06.000But when it comes to the investigation, we're with Ben Armstrong here, BitBoy Crypto.
01:45:12.000When it comes to the investigation, how do you see this going?
01:45:15.000I mean, the FTX, the Almeida people, they're already flying all around, they're jet-setting all around, they're trying to hide.
01:45:21.000You know that the government is going to try to protect its own, like Gary, Deep State Gary.
01:45:27.000So where do you see this investigation going, and when is it really going to kick off?
01:45:33.000What do you think it's going to look like?
01:45:35.000Yeah, well, first and foremost, you know, there's a lot of people have been seeing this sentiment a lot, is that, well, Sam Beckman Freedie gave so much money to Joe Biden that he's going to get off scot-free here.
01:47:01.000If you look at the similarities between this and the ultimate bet poker scandal from the early 2000s, They recruited Phil Hellmuth and Mike Mattesow, two gigantic poker players, to promote it.
01:47:12.000And what happened is Dan Friedberg was in charge of setting up the infrastructure and the architecture of the shell game that was Ultimate Bet.
01:47:19.000Ultimately kept a lot of the powerful people there from getting in trouble.
01:47:22.000What they did was they created a software called God Mode, where they could see the other player's cards.
01:47:28.000They would literally call up these professional poker players and say, hey, do you want to play heads up one on one?
01:48:23.000Well, if you look at the giant hack from FTX the other night, all the money went to all these places that didn't really make sense.
01:48:29.000Because the money trail is not what is important.
01:48:31.000FTX was built with a fail-safe inside where they could send money out and destroy evidence and destroy, you know, trails that would lead investigators to the ultimate top here.
01:48:41.000And then number four, the fourth, you know, thing they have in common is find a fall guy Make sure he's responsible for everything and we will dip out.
01:48:49.000Dan Friedberg did not even lose his license in the state of New York from the largest poker scandal in history.
01:49:03.000SPF is going to take the fall for all of this.
01:49:04.000I mean, you know, I'm certainly concerned about an Epstein type situation with him because he knows so much and he's so naive.
01:49:11.000And then you start looking into the ties of You know, whether it's SBF's mom that was, you know, for a political lobbyist group, Mind the Gap, I think it was called, Caroline Ellison, the CEO of Alameda.
01:49:23.000You know, she obviously, her dad is Greg Ellison, who is direct boss to one Gary Gensler at MIT, and you start digging into all those connections, you start to find a lot of these people are kind of like, they're ghosts.
01:49:35.000Look into Greg Ellison, you can't really find anything about this guy, who was the leader of the finance at MIT.
01:49:41.000You start figuring out a lot of this stuff has been scrubbed intentionally, and it continues to be scrubbed.
01:49:45.000That's why we continue to be the mouthpiece of the people here, making sure that people understand who these characters are before they're able to scrub their images off the internet.
01:49:53.000So then I guess what you're kind of leaning into here, but we don't have the answer is, who is the wolf of crypto?
01:50:18.000What they're going to try to do is they're going to try to pin it on what they're calling the Gang of Four, which is Caroline Ellison, Sam Bankman-Freed, Gary Wang, and I believe Amy Wu is the fourth piece there.
01:50:27.000They're going to try to tie those people together and say they were responsible for everything, while your Dan Friedbergs and whoever's above him get off scot-free.
01:50:36.000We've got to allow that not to happen.
01:50:37.000Let me pause you right there, because that's where I wanted to go next.
01:50:40.000And this was I was first doing my commentary on this last night because, again, I'm not really the crypto guy, so I had to do a lot of digging just to kind of get a better understanding of this, but my initial response I was saying last night was clearly Freedman and the people you just mentioned, clearly they've been set up as fall guys.
01:51:00.000From the very beginning, they've been propped up as fall guys.
01:51:03.000I mean, no offense to Friedman and the girl, but I mean, look, if you take one look at them, folks, they're probably not all there.
01:51:08.000I mean, I'm not trying to be rude, but they're probably on a spectrum.
01:51:11.000They probably maybe have some learning disabilities or something.
01:51:17.000It's interesting you mention that because there's actually a lot of evidence that points back to all these people met at somewhere called the Center for Autistic Effectiveness or something like that.
01:51:26.000If people really want to start digging, you know, pulling on that thread, you'll find that it was almost like all of these people came together at the same time it was orchestrated even before any of this was launched.
01:52:21.000We're not talking about just normal Ponzi schemes, money laundering, political influence.
01:52:26.000Now we're talking about these same people taking advantage of potentially mentally impaired and disabled people.
01:52:32.000So, I mean, this is about as evil as it gets.
01:52:35.000And of course, there it right is, all tied into the midterm elections and war in Ukraine.
01:52:39.000It's the same, it's just the same crap we deal with.
01:52:42.000Well, of course, Ben Armstrong from BitBoyCrypto.com has all the information here.
01:52:46.000Every angle that I go to, he already has the info.
01:52:50.000And so I just want to kind of retouch on the issue of the Fall Guys here.
01:52:55.000Because I think it really illustrates the next level of evil we're dealing with.
01:53:00.000We're not dealing with some, maybe some younger people, some innovators that get involved with a trending thing right now, like cryptocurrency and find ways to make money, or maybe they think they're going to spread the wealth or whatever, or maybe they think it's good causes they're helping to.
01:53:14.000No, clearly there were people on top of them, using them, leading them on, and again, you just take one look at these individuals, Yeah, that's a great question.
01:53:24.000to be used as the fall guys now and maybe successfully so.
01:53:46.000You know, I certainly think that, you know, one thing that's different now
01:53:49.000than, you know, scandals in the past is the voice of social media is so amplified now.
01:53:56.000Now, of course, there's deep political corruption you can't really touch, right?
01:54:00.000But when it comes to these criminal cases, especially something that, you know, definitely looks like, you know, it was not meant to happen.
01:54:08.000You know, like you said, it wasn't pre planned out for regulation.
01:54:10.000It doesn't look like they're going to use it for that.
01:54:12.000But it looks like there were some big mistakes made here.
01:54:15.000Is that our voice on amplifying the criminals involved in this like your Dan Friedberg and your Gary Waynes.
01:54:21.000I think it's enough to put push these people into the spotlight.
01:54:25.000And you think, you know, you know, pressure pressure is going to be felt by Gary Gensler.
01:54:31.000You know, he's going to feel the pressure.
01:54:32.000We've already got Tom Emmer out there talking about having hearings, questioning him about his meetings with SPF.
01:54:38.000He's got a lot of egg on his face, and so he's going to be really amped up to try to make sure that there are some fall guys, not just SPF.
01:54:45.000Because if SPF is the only fall guy, if SPF is the only villain here, then how bad does Gary Gensler look?
01:54:52.000And so he's having meetings with him time after time.
01:54:55.000One of only basically two people, Joseph Lubin of Consensus, another guy who has been able to meet with Gary Gensler.
01:55:01.000You can't just call Gary Gensler and get on the list.
01:55:04.000So the fact that SBF was of that level and having these kinds of meetings with him, I think it really shows the lack of judgment from Gary Gensler and he's going to be really itching to nail people down for this.
01:55:15.000So I think I do want to make one correction here.
01:55:17.000There is an account on Twitter called Autism Capital, and that supposedly is ran by Sam and also some of his
01:55:27.000What I was actually referring to earlier where all four of the founders of FTX met,
01:55:32.000it was actually the Center for Effective Altruism, not Autism, Altruism.
01:55:37.000They did all meet there and somebody's laid out a pretty interesting scenario.
01:55:40.000It's kind of like, almost like the movie 21 of the card counting scandal, where basically a teacher tied together all of these, you know, people are able to count cards and pull them into its criminal scheme, that maybe that Center for Effective Altruism was used as a linchpin to bring all of these people in that had, you know, not all of them have autism, but we do believe, you know, probably Carolina and SBF, and like you said, You know, it just is what it is.
01:56:05.000I mean, we're not trying to, you know, poke fun of these people.
01:56:07.000What we're saying is they were very easily used by people in power and people with authority.
01:56:13.000So, I wonder when you look and when you listen to SPF, some of the things that he said, especially if you look at, you know, this clip of him with Tom Brady, like, it looks really, it's really hard to believe that this was the guy who was in power in charge of the whole thing.
01:56:28.000When you listen to clips of him talk about All true ism and wanting good and one effectiveness, you know, it really makes you wonder like somewhere deep within that center for effective altruism was this basically brainwashed into these people's heads.
01:56:42.000They could get out and say the right talking point.
01:56:44.000Meanwhile, the people behind the scenes were doing all the dirty work.
01:56:47.000Yeah, and you know, it's interesting, too, because you wonder how much he was aware of what he was doing was illegal.
01:56:56.000You wonder of how much, you know, he was told, oh, you'll be fine.
01:57:02.000And then the people that end up, you know, disappearing, stabbing him in the back.
01:57:05.000It's interesting though, he did flee to the Bahamas.
01:57:09.000That was probably a decision that he made.
01:57:11.000Whether or not that was to go down there and do something, or he just thought, I need to get out of the States because I'm about to be arrested or investigated, we may not know.
01:57:20.000But I mean, moving forward, I see a situation here where if I am his lawyer, that would be my play.
01:57:29.000I would say, hey, look, I've got a client here who suffers from a learning disability or has some sort of, you know, spectrum autism here, and he was taken advantage of, and so we want the individuals that took advantage of him to be called to task here.
01:57:44.000I don't know how much of this, you know, SBF will be thinking about, but that would be my play as the lawyer because, I mean, that is, I think that that's a real element of this.
01:57:53.000Not to get him off the hook, but just to say, hey, let's, you know, let's look at all the players.
01:58:01.000I mean, it's a good way to go to be able to try to not get the harshest sentence or consequence you can get.
01:58:08.000And in this case, it could actually be used as a way to point fingers above him.
01:58:13.000And I think that this is really where it gets kind of dark, because when we're looking at SBF being portrayed as the fall guy here, and you're looking at if he were really to point fingers Yeah.
01:58:25.000at the people behind the scenes that were really running this,
01:58:29.000what kind of jeopardy does that put his life in?
01:58:32.000You know, like they can certainly use this angle of I was used, but at some point you gotta say
01:58:51.000So because of that, there's only so many things that I can actually put out there.
01:58:56.000If you start going down this rabbit trail and really who's in charge of all this thing,
01:59:00.000it can get pretty scary and pretty deep.
01:59:02.000When you start really touching on the Ukrainian situation, I shared a New York Times article from, I believe, April 2021 on my Twitter last night.
01:59:11.000You really start getting into how the Ukrainian government is tied in with the top crypto exchange, and how easy the money laundering is, and then you look at some of the things they actually brag about doing in that New York Times article.
01:59:26.000And so I definitely think, you know, watching that pipeline of money in between Ukraine and the United States is something to watch.
01:59:32.000And really, here's one thing that people really have to understand.
01:59:35.000We have a video that we've been showing on various articles of Dan Friedberg explaining that they literally counterfeited tokens on the exchanges.
01:59:46.000When you really start looking at how these flywheel coins were set up, how they counterfeited tokens, and then the money that was given to the Democratic Party, Joe Biden specifically, what you realize is they found a mechanism to print money out of nothing to make political donations with.
02:00:05.000And that's not even counting the money laundering aspect of this.
02:00:07.000So you're looking, in my opinion, you're looking at Counterfeiting, tax evasion, RICO laws, racketeering.
02:00:15.000When you really start adding up all the laws that were broken here, I mean, this is going to turn out to be a very massive case.
02:00:21.000I want to come back and get into the Ukrainian issue on the other side.
02:00:23.000But when you get into the idea here, you know, maybe there's an analogy, but for people to understand.
02:00:30.000I mean, folks, they literally made up a currency.
02:00:32.000They literally made up a cryptocurrency that was their own in-house exchange currency.
02:00:38.000And they knew that they were just going to use it to inflate the value of their currency and then to basically launder money in and out, inflating the value with every transaction, as you mentioned earlier.
02:00:49.000And so, again, now you go back to, is that really SBF's idea?
02:00:54.000Or was that a master money launderer who gave them that idea and said, this is how we're going to do it?
02:01:01.000Yeah, well, my best guess is Dan Friedberg is the architect here.
02:01:04.000He's the mastermind behind all of this.
02:01:06.000And like I said, we know this because the FTX game, when you really look at it, it looks different, it's packaged different, but it's the exact same game the Ultimate Bet used, previously, about 20 years earlier.
02:01:18.000So when you really break that down, it makes sense that he's the puppet master.
02:01:22.000The question is, is there someone above him?
02:01:26.000I mean, it just doesn't really seem like all of a sudden, you know, SPF just came up with all these ideas.
02:01:32.000Usually when you have an exchange, here's what's unique about FTX.
02:01:35.000When you have an exchange that creates its own token, like BNB for Binance, for example, It does something, like when it was first launched on Binance, you got utility, you got cheaper trading fees for using that coin to pay your trading fees with.
02:01:50.000A more natural way to inflate the price, I guess you could say.
02:01:53.000Whereas with FTT, it never did a single thing.
02:01:59.000I mean, they're basically selling the equivalent of plastic coins and diamonds, folks.
02:02:04.000I mean, it'd be like a kiddie toy of plastic gold coins that you sold for real money.
02:02:09.000Final segment here with Ben Armstrong, BitBoyCrypto.com on Twitter at BitBoy underscore crypto.
02:02:17.000A couple other questions I have for him here.
02:02:21.000Now, in dealing with Ukraine, and we have some of the numbers, they say, I think it was $40 million to Democrats, $200,000 to Republicans.
02:02:30.000There's some other numbers we see going out as well, but looking more into this, I don't think this is the full picture.
02:02:38.000I don't think we're getting the full story here, because when you hear the numbers of $1 billion, $2 billion in supposed capital that they had, $40 million is barely a drop in the bucket.
02:02:50.000I feel that they would have reached in with a much larger scoop, if you will, than just a little $40 million.
02:02:56.000Do you think we're getting the full numbers?
02:02:58.000Do you think we're getting the full story as far as how much money was actually laundered and spent during these midterms?
02:03:04.000Or do you think there's still more to be discovered here?
02:03:07.000No, I mean, I certainly think that there is a lot more to be discovered here.
02:03:11.000I think one thing that's really interesting when you start digging into this and you start realizing, you know, how long this could have potentially been going on, when you look at how much money was raised in crypto alone for the war there in Ukraine, it's $135 million.
02:03:43.000The total amount that they raised in fiat for the Ukrainian effort, this article goes back, this is a Coindesk article, back in June, was about $600 million.
02:03:51.000You think about 25% Of those of that money raised came in through crypto at a time when crypto was dropping dramatically, making it much less advantageous for someone to send crypto as opposed to sending, you know, fiat or US dollars.
02:04:10.000So I think really digging into these numbers.
02:04:13.000And especially when you say, OK, 40 million versus 200,000, that doesn't sound quite accurate.
02:04:19.000So I think these are things I'm actually this is something I'm on the investigation trail of right now.
02:04:24.000People can tell from this or this New York Times article I posted last night on Twitter that I referenced, you know, I'm starting to really get into this Ukrainian angle and trying to figure out what happened here, because, look, at this point, I don't think there's anybody out there that believes that this did not happen.
02:04:41.000It is just a matter of trying to figure out the trail of what money went where, who it came back to, and the amount is definitely something that we've got to start looking into, and it's something I'm digging into now.
02:04:53.000And of course, it was our government, Washington, D.C., the White House, that said, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not going to be, no oversight of the funds, no oversights, no audits of the funds, we're sending all the money to Ukraine, you don't get to know where it goes, none of that.
02:05:12.000Who are the victims of this crime, Ben?
02:05:17.000I mean, the victims of this crime are the holders.
02:05:19.000The victims of this crime are the people that have funds left on FTX.
02:05:22.000And not just FTX, but also the companies that have been left in the wake, including BlockFi, another large lending platform here in the United States that, you know, tons of larger Anthony Pomplianos and your Peter McCormick's.
02:05:34.000A lot of your really large kind of Bitcoin primarily influencers were really saying, you know, Graham Stephan, Andre G some mainstream, Meet Kevin, mainstream financial YouTubers that aren't even in crypto were pushing this platform so heavily.
02:05:49.000And once again, I said on my show earlier, like, I don't blame these people for doing it.
02:05:54.000But how much money now has been lost and locked on these platforms because people were 100 percent behind them?
02:06:00.000I think the really important lesson for us going forward here in crypto There's not a platform you can trust 100%.
02:06:05.000At the end of the day, the retail investors are always the ones that get stuck with these bills.
02:06:12.000We are seeing, of course, a lot of the hedge funds.
02:06:13.000There have been hedge funds that have been absolutely decimated by this, too, which is another reason why you know that this wasn't pre-planned out, in my opinion, because the hedge funds, the institutional money... They never lose.
02:06:24.000So, the fact that they've lost, I mean, there was a big one, a guy that came out, Travis Kling, a guy that was in charge of a big hedge fund today, said, All their capital was locked up in FTX.
02:06:34.000You're going to see a lot of reverberating effects.
02:06:36.000But ultimately, as always, the losers in this are the people.
02:07:20.000So there are exchanges that we do support that we think are OK, but we're never going to give 100 percent confidence in anything again.
02:07:28.000Well, and my final question for you was going to be, what is the state of crypto?
02:07:31.000But let me just ask you one more thing quickly here.
02:07:35.000The fact that of all the different cryptocurrencies and all the different trends and all the different hype and excitement and everything, it was FTX and SBF that were really the only ones introduced by the establishment, embraced by the establishment, sold to you by the establishment.
02:07:55.000Yeah, well, that tells me that's somebody we should be wary of, someone we should be very scared of.
02:07:59.000Look, crypto was created, Bitcoin was created in reaction to the 2008 financial crisis, where basically we were forced to bail out banks with our money.
02:08:08.000We paid taxes once and we had to bail them out twice.
02:08:10.000And it was a reaction to that, like, we should be our own banks.
02:08:14.000We should be able to make our own decisions with our money, not allow the government to just move it around and do whatever it wants.
02:08:19.000And we all know the fiat system is going to burn down 100%.
02:08:25.000I believe USDC is going to become the digital dollar.
02:08:27.000It's going to kick the can down the road.
02:08:29.000But ultimately, you just can't print money out of nothing.
02:08:31.000And this is a lesson we've learned with FTX.
02:08:33.000You can't just print money out of nothing for no reason.
02:08:36.000There's no way that is a viable strategy for the long term.
02:08:39.000So eventually it is going to burn down, you know, in that respect.
02:08:43.000But when you have the government, the very people that you don't trust so much, you created cryptocurrency out of telling you, hey, these are the guys, you know, you got Kevin O'Leary on stage saying, well, you know, and once again, don't blame Kevin O'Leary for coming out and saying, well, there's one safe place you can go with your crypto.
02:09:01.000You know, everything's going to be fine.
02:09:02.000You know, we bought into that establishment lie and we have to reject that.
02:09:06.000In crypto, we do a pretty good job Being skeptical and rejecting those types of behaviors, but this one here for some reason got under all of our noses, and we didn't see it All right, and just finally what do you see the state of crypto right now?
02:09:21.000Yeah, the state of crypto is, here's what's funny.
02:09:23.000What's funny is, I'm what we call a strict four-year fundamentalist, four-year cycle fundamentalist in Bitcoin.
02:09:30.000When you look back at the history of Bitcoin, there's been a constant four-year cycle.
02:09:36.000You have an event called the Bitcoin halving, which basically cuts the production of Bitcoin in half.
02:09:40.000Right now, the average of 900 Bitcoin created per day in 2024, that number is going to get cut down to 450 per day.
02:09:50.000That halving event leads to one and a half years of parabolic upward action, one year of a gigantic 85% drop, one and a half years of slowly rebuilding towards the halving.
02:10:03.000Nothing that's happened in the macro, nothing with inflation, nothing with Ukraine, nothing with this event so far has got us off track.
02:10:11.000I've said since the beginning of this year that we should see the bottom of Bitcoin at the end of November to the middle of December, sometime in that range based on the history of Bitcoin.
02:10:25.000We do think it's going to probably drop somewhere between $10,000 and $12,000.
02:10:29.000But unless we break that trend, and we were to go, say, maybe below $8,000, there's no reason to think that we're going to see anything different in this cycle.
02:10:38.000Every single cycle, whether it's around the halving or around the all-time highs or around the bear market, you always hear people say, it's different this time.
02:10:46.000Look at the macro environment or look at this or look at that.
02:10:50.000And what we found in crypto is Bitcoin just keeps doing the same thing over and over and over again.
02:10:56.000The entire industry is pulled by Bitcoin, obviously, because even in times like this, while everything else is burning around it, Bitcoin is still fine.
02:11:03.000But the prices and the liquidations and the mass selling may come and may send the price down.
02:11:08.000Which for guys like you is a good thing.
02:11:22.000Like, it's not all about my personal portfolio and making money.
02:11:25.000I like it when people get into crypto and they win and then they start sticking around for the ideals and the philosophies.
02:11:31.000You know, we say you come for the money and the Lambos, but you stick around because you love decentralized.
02:11:35.000Well that's why I'm so glad we got you on today, because you're one of the few out there that I think keeps it level and keeps it grounded, and I appreciate that.
02:11:42.000An excellent commentary with us for the last hour.

02:13:28.000If you don't boost your immune system, plus it keeps us on air, a win-win.
02:13:32.000Hey, great being on the Alex Jones Show InfoWars.
02:20:53.000You're looking at over a hundred thousand small and medium-sized businesses in New York going out of, excuse me, in Italy, going out of business.
02:21:08.000New York is nothing compared to what, there's some hot spots in New York, you know, the east side, west side, down the villages, you know, but the rest of it, nothing compared to what it was.
02:21:19.000This COVID war has destroyed the lives and livelihoods of billions of people and now the Ukraine war with the sanctions.
02:21:30.000If the United States and NATO did not keep funding the Ukraine war, it would have been over a long time ago.
02:21:44.000The sanctions would be off, it would be over, people wouldn't care.
02:21:48.000You think people really care about what was going on between Ukraine and Russia?
02:29:10.000Yeah, but you can get a degree in history.
02:29:13.000Yeah, we'll give you some baloney that we'll make up that will tell you happened years ago.
02:29:21.000Now, I had a buddy up here the other week, this weekend, and we're talking about how, you know, we don't know anything about the future.
02:29:30.000And I looked up, I said, you know, I wonder when they first the first skull, you know, they say the world all began like, you know, like, you know, like.
02:29:40.000Fifteen hundred years ago, some stupid, you know, well, you know, some stupid number, you know, 2000 years ago.
02:30:07.000And one of the great distortions you're seeing right in front of your eyes right now is that they blame certain things like the mental illness of children.
02:30:18.000Again, an article in this week's Trends Journal.
02:31:22.000So I'm saying they distort history, they don't talk about trends.
02:31:26.000And that's why I want to continue to talk about the importance of the geopolitical trends taking place.
02:31:35.000And of course, the biggest one right on the scale right now is what's going on over there in Ukraine.
02:31:43.000And today, the Ukrainian president, the guy that used to play a comedian on TV, And his role on TV was playing the President of Ukraine in a sitcom.
02:31:56.000And he played the piano with his penis.
02:38:56.000Or the guy running the show before the communists overtook it, Chiang Kai-shek, him and those people, they left and they went to Taiwan.
02:39:06.000The United States, by the way, has sent $10 billion of our money, the plantation workers of Slavelandia, our money for military equipment for Taiwan to fight China.
02:39:23.000Taiwan is one of the richest countries in Asia.
02:43:02.000Election day you go to the polls, they give you a piece of paper, you mark off who you want, you have the people counting them, not the machines that could be easily rigged and stupidly rigged as they're rigged.
02:45:29.000We're going to take a break, and we'll be right back.
02:45:34.000Hey, great being on the Alex Jones Show!
02:45:37.000You know, as I said, you know, the news out there is just nothing more than propaganda, and they just sell their lies continually.
02:45:47.000The toilet paper record, they call themselves the paper record, the New York Times, You know, remember they sold the Iraq War saying, you know, Saddam Hussein had them aluminum tubes.
02:48:04.000Going back to the markets, they're going to do everything they can to keep the markets going.
02:48:09.000And we have a great article in here, in the Trends Journal going out tomorrow, by Gregory Manorino, about how these interest rates are going to do nothing, nothing, to affect inflation.
02:48:24.000And the BS they keep throwing out there is, oh, inflation is going down.
02:48:27.000It's going down, but look how high it is!
02:50:21.000When interest rates go way up, gold goes down.
02:50:25.000Because the value of the dollar increases and gold is dollar-based, so people around the world can't buy it.
02:50:34.000But, you look, we did an article in last week's Trends Journal about all the central banksters that are buying gold.
02:50:42.000And then going back to the picture I was talking about before, I told you about tens of thousands of Italians take to the streets in opposition to arms shipments to Ukraine.
02:55:03.000And by the way, that guy Fetterman, that slob that got elected over there in Pennsylvania with the hoodie and the... He symbolizes America today.
02:58:50.000Since our last meeting, we've made tremendous progress.
02:58:53.000The global energy systems, food systems, and supply chains will be deeply affected.
02:59:01.000The energy crisis here in the United States was exceptionally successful worldwide, and we expect similar success with our upcoming food shortage.
02:59:10.000Our labor leaders have made great progress by causing confusion and work stoppages in all areas of the world.
02:59:17.000In times of crisis, the role of governments is more important and more relevant than ever.
02:59:24.000Politically, the public has lost total confidence in any form of government.
02:59:30.000The threat of universal war is a daily possibility.
02:59:33.000What is also needed is a summit like this one to go beyond crisis management and to look into constructive ways we can build our common future.
02:59:45.000I would like to thank each and every one of you for your hard work and dedication to our cause.
02:59:51.000In reviewing this year's progress, let me say that we have been highly effective in conditioning the people's minds to accept our solution to the world's problems.
03:00:02.000I mean, especially the part where literally they list in the same order, the same things that are happening, the food, the energy and the supply chain.
03:00:11.000Of course, when you look at what's actually happened to the energy, food and supply chain in this world, you can see that they've all been destroyed.
03:00:20.000They've all been collapsed all on purpose by the decisions of people made at the World Economic Forum.
