00:08:44.000And then while Ryan digs that up, I will tell you that the second part of this story is that he went to America to interview Jim Jeffries and interview people who attended his show saying, you know how much this is edited?
00:08:57.000And Comedy Central called the FBI, said Avi's a terrorist, and it worked.
00:12:54.000In fact, the weapon I was carrying was an American M4.
00:13:04.000You know, there's plenty of people I don't like, and I would be tempted to call the FBI and say this person's a terrorist just to sabotage their lives.
00:13:13.000But, well, first of all, that's unethical, but it's also illegal.
00:13:38.000But if somebody's played the system here because they have connections or they knew how they could play the system, the fact is that at the end of the day, I got cleared by the FBI because it was obvious that I wasn't there to carry out any sort of terror incident.
00:13:58.000It's kind of funny even saying it to you.
00:16:01.000So from the beginning, their tactic has been, and I've spoken to other comedians in Hollywood who have told me literally their tactic is to ignore and it'll all blow over.
00:16:15.000And I keep saying this to them every opportunity I get, I tell them, just please, I will give you my mom's number.
00:16:52.000You know, when it came out and when I realized, like, I was literally at a Purim event.
00:16:58.000Purim is like the Jewish, you know, it's the night you go out, you get hammered, you dress up.
00:17:05.000Like it's the party night of the Jews.
00:17:07.000And I was out at an event and some like rabbi with a big beard comes up to me and he says, mate, I saw you last night on Jim Jeffries and he slaughtered you.
00:17:20.000Oh, you should have done that interview.
00:17:22.000And he was, the fact is, he believed the content he'd seen.
00:17:26.000He believed, like, to be honest, if I'd watched it without seeing the truth, I would have believed it too.
00:17:32.000And I would have really disliked that person because the way they had me answering stuff, I sounded like a total prick.
00:17:40.000And I was just sitting there and I opened the video and I watched it and I couldn't believe my eyes.
00:17:56.000And trust me, it's not what you've just watched.
00:17:59.000And I was sure at the time that when I released the truth, the truth of the answers, just even forget about what Jim Jeffries himself has said, because I have no problem with what he said really in theory.
00:19:54.000And, you know, there are people even from within my own community that'll be very uncomfortable about the things that I'm willing to laugh at.
00:20:05.000And the fact is, if you frame something as a serious story, and there was no joking in that story, he walked into that pointing fingers at people who radicalized the Christchurch killer, one of the biggest scumbags on this planet.
00:20:24.000He walked in there, pointing fingers at this guy because the way he speaks about radical Islam, he is responsible for what this other white supremacist scumbag's gone and done.
00:21:05.000But I want, I think that the only fair thing is to be portrayed exactly how you are.
00:21:13.000And there are many scumbags out there, and I'm not taking away from that.
00:21:18.000And the Christchurch killer is a perfect example of it.
00:21:21.000But to go and take someone who is standing out there every single day, countering literally the same sort of extremist views you're pointing at, and turning him into that, into that same sort of monster, by cutting up his own words, it's a disgrace.
00:24:31.000What is the, let me read the subhead there.
00:24:34.000Surely no one is feeling any emotion as intensely as the happiness currently experienced by the staff and especially the cleaners at the Ecuador Embassy.
00:24:46.000This is like when that dude, Nakula Basi Nakula, the guy who made the Muhammad video, he was thrown in prison for a year.
00:24:55.000And the attitude, even at Fox News, among conservatives, was very sort of, haha, you shouldn't have done that.
00:28:21.000And then I noticed with this, with Julian Assange, I sent you an article where this woman's, some British cow was saying, oh, I love bad house guest stories and this one really tops it.
00:28:33.000And I said, you got to read how smug these people are.
00:29:18.000And obviously I knew that Hillary Clinton had said she wanted to drone Julian, and so I wasn't about to vote for somebody who wanted to murder my friend.
00:29:27.000I think he's more than a friend to you.
00:29:55.000We don't have a lot of time, but I want to just, you're a great person to go to for Assange myths.
00:30:01.000Now, the top myth that everyone says is, yeah, he released a bunch of documents involving government behavior.
00:30:08.000That's fine and everything if it's all corruption, but he put translators and other people who would help the American military, he put them on blast, and then now they're going to get killed.
00:30:20.000He put our guys at risk and our allies at risk.
00:30:24.000So, first of all, the Pentagon repeatedly testified during the Manning trial that nobody got killed, nobody got hurt, and nobody even had to be moved because of the release.
00:30:35.000They also originally claimed that there were 300 people whose names should have been redacted from the files but weren't, but they clearly hadn't actually read the release because those names were redacted and they later had to correct themselves.
00:30:49.000Also, you know, on a less evidence-based defense of this, the blood, any blood is on the hands of the neocons that pushed for the war in the first place.
00:31:01.000Like, why isn't Bill Crystal or, you know, John McCain, the ghost of John McCain on trial?
00:31:07.000Those are the people who got everybody killed.
00:31:09.000They got a lot more people killed with their lies than Julian Gutt could have even potentially got hurt with his truth.
00:31:32.000Did Julian Assange smear shit on his bathroom wall?
00:31:36.000Anyone who knows Julian has like laughed at this to the point where nobody even knew how to address it because Julian is like, he's really, I don't want to say anal, especially given the pun that happened there.
00:32:34.000And while I was in London this last time when I was chasing down the undercovers who were camped outside the embassy, I got leaked a copy of his transcript from October when he testified trying to fight the gag that Ecuador had placed on him.
00:32:49.000And he specifically talked about how they were smearing him with outrageous lies and he couldn't defend himself because he was gagged.
00:32:58.000And so they knew that they could say anything they wanted, no matter how outrageous, and people were going to buy it because he couldn't defend himself.
00:33:06.000And so I think somebody was drunk and was like, I bet we can get papers to print that he smeared shit on the walls.
00:34:08.000Okay, so isn't a lot of this, though, the Ecuadorian president mad that a picture leaked of him having lobster in bed, and he wanted to just kick Julian out because he thought that was Julian's fault, having that picture leak?
00:34:22.000Well, that was the excuse that he made to avoid international embarrassment.
00:34:26.000But WikiLeaks didn't release the INA papers.
00:34:29.000They simply tweeted a link to something about it.
00:34:33.000But the deal was made in October for Ecuador to hand over Julian Assange.
00:34:38.000It was made with Ambassador Richard Rick Grinnell from Germany because, you know, of course the German ambassador would be the one making deals with Ecuador.
00:34:47.000Wait, I know Rick Grinnell, the gay guy.
00:35:02.000And the deal was that he got an assurance that Julian would not be executed, but it was only a verbal agreement, and the DOJ has refused to sign anything saying it's true.
00:35:47.000I especially, like, I still have a tremendous amount of respect for her.
00:35:51.000No matter what you think of what she did back then, or, you know, whatever Manning did back then.
00:35:57.000The issue now that she's sitting in jail for 40 days because she's refusing to testify against Julian Assange, even though she doesn't even like him, is a pretty bold statement.
00:36:28.000But there's, so the people who found that the Russians were the ones who stole the DNC emails, it was a group called CrowdStrike who was hired by the DNC.
00:36:39.000The DNC never turned their servers over to the FBI.
00:36:42.000Julian maintains that it was not a state actor.
00:36:44.000Craig Murray, the former UK ambassador to Uzbekistan, said that he's the one who met with the source near American University in DC and got the files and that he was American.
00:36:57.000Bill Binney, the former technical director of the NSA, has done his own forensics on the files and he found that it had to have come from somebody who stuck a drive into a computer and took them locally.
00:37:09.000So the fact that none of this is included in the Mueller report and that he didn't bother talking to any of these people is pretty ridiculous.
00:37:16.000Isn't a common criticism that Assange helped the Russians hack our election?
00:37:36.000They're claiming that this is only about Manning, but there's a secret grand jury convened against Assange right now in D.C. And they asked two witnesses last week about me visiting Julian.
00:37:48.000And I didn't know Julian during the Manning stuff, and I didn't start visiting him until after the election.
00:37:54.000So clearly they're looking into more information than just what he did in 2010.
00:40:06.000So I thank Julian Assange, not a phrase I've used before, ever, for raising the bar on Nightmare HouseGuests with the frankly enthralling details emerging from his almost seven-year stay in London's Ecuadorian embassy, that he has finally been, that he has finally been ejected.
00:40:27.000Ugh, that is one of the worst paragraphs I've ever read.
00:45:00.000And the takeaway for today's episode is not only don't believe what you read, but don't believe comedians and these whimsical satirists in left-wing papers who joke about feces on walls like it's not going to cost a man his life.
