Ukraine just raided a Burisma-connected oligarch. What does this mean for the next step in the plan
00:00:07.420

Igor Kolomoisky, Ukraine's best-known oligarch, has a complicated history with the president.
00:00:45.260
For years, Zelensky's company has produced shows for Kolomoisky's biggest TV channel,
00:00:50.620
1plus1. In 2019, Kolomoisky's media channels gave a big boost to Zelensky's presidential campaign.
00:00:57.700
After Zelensky's victory, Kolomoisky kept up his relationship with the president,
00:01:02.340
nominating over 30 lawmakers to Zelensky's newly established party and maintaining influence
00:01:07.720
with many of them in parliament. He also backed a new political project, which has 24 lawmakers.
00:01:13.700
The first year of Zelensky's rule was a revival for Kolomoisky. The oligarch was able to secure
00:01:19.080
control over Ukrainafta, a state-owned petroleum producer where he owns a minority stake.
00:01:24.600
In 2020, Ukrainafta was supposed to be cleared of all debt and receive a new independent director.
00:01:31.480
Kolomoisky was able to stall the process and keep a favorable CEO in place.
00:01:36.700
Until recently, Kolomoisky held his grip on another state company,
00:01:41.120
Centrenerga, which controls 15% of Ukraine's energy production.
00:01:44.880
Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily,
00:01:48.840
powered by Turning Point USA. Today is February 1st, 2023, Anno Domini.
00:01:55.240
Igor Kolomoisky, an interesting story of a Ukrainian oligarch who has just been raided,
00:02:01.820
we're told, by Reuters in Ukraine. Now, what's interesting about this, and the clip that we just
00:02:08.180
played for you is from the Kiev Post, and tells us that this guy, Kolomoisky, was once known as one
00:02:14.680
of the major backers of Vladimir Zelensky. So, he was one of the major backers of him.
00:02:22.500
He was one of the oligarchs, obviously one of the most powerful oligarchs, or prior to this,
00:02:26.760
we should say, one of the most powerful oligarchs in Ukraine.
00:02:29.160
Another interesting tidbit about Kolomoisky, that if you go all the way back, as we've done,
00:02:38.220
to the Anti-Corruption Action Center of Ukraine, in 2012, they ran a piece on Kolomoisky,
00:02:48.680
where they were digging through all of the various holdings, all of the various financial dealings
00:02:55.180
that this oligarch was involved in. And that if you dig through the layers of banking and shell
00:03:02.400
companies, and companies based out of Cyprus, the Cypriot companies, the holding companies, etc.,
00:03:08.100
you actually find something quite interesting. That at this point, the Ukrainian Anti-Corruption
00:03:15.420
Action Center, the Ukrainian government, which is supported by the US State Department,
00:03:21.080
found that Igor Kolomoisky was actually the money behind none other than Burisma Energy.
00:03:32.300
So, Burisma, the company that Hunter Biden was on the board of, this guy's Lechevsky.
00:03:41.900
They were digging into him. They started investigating him. Joe Biden got that guy fired. The prosecutor
00:03:49.120
fired. Now, here comes Kolomoisky. What's SBU? The internal security services of Ukraine have just
00:04:01.120
raided Kolomoisky. This guy is directly tied financially to Burisma, essentially the money
00:04:07.200
controlling the whole thing, controlling the energy resources, and at one point had been one of the top
00:04:13.540
oligarchs behind Zelensky, and certainly behind Zelensky's rise, not only during his political
00:04:20.040
time, but also when he was a TV entertainer. He was the guy that funded the majority of his TV shows
00:04:24.960
that made him a household name in Ukraine. Here's what's going on. As the political machinations
00:04:33.240
turn on in this region, as Russia is fighting and digging in harder in places like Soledar and Bakhmut,
00:04:42.540
places in the Donbass region, the Volgograd Gap region, which I talked about yesterday on War Room,
00:04:48.680
which of course is reminiscent of the Battle of Stalingrad. That's only a few hundred miles,
00:04:53.800
a few hundred kilometers from where the fighting is today. The United States is putting pressure on
00:05:00.900
Ukraine, certainly. And if you think that all of these tanks, all of this equipment is going over
00:05:07.000
without any strings attached, then you're not paying attention. So Kolomoisky has been one for
00:05:12.180
fraud in the United States for a long time, but he's been able to buy time. He's been able to buy
00:05:16.260
support by funding various items. In fact, there's also information linking Igor Kolomoisky
00:05:22.960
to the initial funding of none other than the neo-Nazi Azov battalion, the very same Azov battalion
00:05:30.720
that we're told again and again has nothing to do with Nazism. It has nothing to do with the support
00:05:37.100
of this guy, Stepan Bandera. What do I mean to say by all this? What I mean to say is the situation in
00:05:44.320
Ukraine is deeper than I think people understand. They want to paint this picture of just Ukraine versus
00:05:52.480
Russia and the US is supporting Ukraine and that's all it is. And that's all we have to focus on.
00:05:57.360
But there's always stuff going on behind the scenes. There's always a layer of money. There's
00:06:02.480
always a layer of power. And when you see these things going on and on throughout the world,
00:06:08.400
throughout different regions of the world, the fact that the war on terror gets turned off at the very
00:06:13.600
same time, just months later, before the war in Eurasia kicks off and suddenly US defense contractors
00:06:22.000
are sending money and sending tanks to Ukraine when they can't send any more tanks to their
00:06:28.240
partner governments in Iraq and Afghanistan, you really have to ask yourself who is benefiting from
00:06:34.320
all of this. And why is it that the current government of the United States, and when I say
00:06:38.960
that, I don't mean the Biden administration. I mean the globalist American empire, the GAE.
00:06:46.960
What is the GAE up to? Well, it seems in this case that Igor Kolomoisky has fallen out of favor
00:06:53.520
with the GAE. And the question is, what is the relationship between the GAE and Vladimir Zelensky?
00:07:02.320
Because this guy was the big backer. Now their backer is none other than the GAE. They're getting
00:07:08.800
their hooks in. They're making sure there's no other way out. And so that's the high level analysis
00:07:17.360
that we're doing here. We can go in and we can describe the capabilities of these platforms. We
00:07:21.760
can describe the ammunition. We can describe the tactics, but we have to look a little bit further.
00:07:26.240
And that's what we always try to do here on Human Events Daily. That's why you have to make sure
00:07:29.600

00:07:34.480
to get this as soon as it comes out, because this information is stuff that you are not going to
00:07:38.960
get. And by the way, Reuters is reporting it, Bloomberg's reporting it. They're not telling
00:07:42.240
you the backstory. Do you ever get the feeling that the world is being held together with duct tape?
00:07:47.040
I certainly do. Every day we are thrown some new meaningless drama in the fake news to distract us
00:07:53.360
from the reality that we are all about to face. Systems are crumbling. Complex systems are failing and
00:07:59.520
falling every single day. Between the government trying to print their way out of debt, global
00:08:03.280
military conflicts, the disintegration of our most trusted institutions, and a looming food shortage,
00:08:08.480
preparedness is no longer a choice. It's a necessity. And you can trust My Patriot Supply.

before the next crisis strikes. That's MyPatriotSupply.com. Governor Newsom is signing a new bill aimed at
00:08:51.360
reforming California's criminal justice system, among them one that bans certain chokeholds and
00:08:57.040
neck restraints by police. The legislation was spurred by the police killing of George Floyd,
00:09:01.840
although the suffocation that led to Floyd's death is not actually banned under this new law.
00:09:07.520
Other measures signed this week are aimed at eliminating discrimination in jury selection
00:09:12.320
and also prohibit the use of race to obtain convictions or impose sentences. And the governor also
00:09:19.440
signed an historic law that paves the way for the descendants of slaves to receive reparations.
00:09:26.000
Governor Newsom says it will impact. Its impact will be felt beyond the state.
00:09:31.040
This is not just about California. It's about making an impact in a debt across the rest of the country.
00:09:37.120
The law does not commit to any specific payment, but it does establish a nine-person task force
00:09:42.320
to study the impact of slavery on black people in California and recommend compensation to the legislature.
00:09:48.400
Well, in a story out of the Daily Mail, it seems that California has decided to take their step in
00:09:55.600
what they call criminal reform, another move forward. And so for years, the state of California has decided
00:10:04.080
to not take crime seriously anymore, to not seriously sentence anyone. If someone's sentenced to death,
00:10:10.320
then they're not actually going to carry out the sentence. They're not going to do anything,
00:10:13.840
essentially to punish crime. But here's what's amazing. And by the way, of course, we've already
00:10:20.800
gotten so compact mag Benji Sarlin did a huge response to myself and Matt Walsh from Daily Wire
00:10:27.920
when we came out in support of flogging. If you remember the special that we did on Sunday,
00:10:32.000
we were talking all about while Singapore does well because they use corporal punishment on their
00:10:38.080
prisoners. And this actually has the ability of setting society right. That's the point of punishment
00:10:43.840
crime. The point of punishing crime is not necessarily to go around being the moral police.
00:10:48.160
It's obviously a moral act, but let me explain. The reason that society punishes crime is because it is
00:10:53.840
in the best interest of society to correct itself and to deal with the criminal element to correct this
00:10:59.600
behavior. That it's not necessarily sitting there saying, we're going to make you a model citizen.
00:11:04.640
It's to let you know that there are what we were in the military would call left, right limits.
00:11:09.360
There are left, right limits to your behavior. There are left, right minutes limits to what we'll
00:11:14.160
allow in public society. And crime is obviously one of them. We will not allow this. We should not.
00:11:20.880
And by the way, I'm not talking about the state of things today. I'm talking about how it should be.
00:11:24.960
This is why crime is punished. Why would you punish crime? Why not just let people do whatever they want?
00:11:30.080
Because you cannot have an ordered society without the maintenance of that order. And it is an ordered
00:11:36.320
society that then is able to produce airports like you would see a Chongmi in Singapore. That's the
00:11:42.960
entire point of all of this. And of course, Benji in Compact where I appreciated his take,
00:11:48.160
but he said, well, they're just investing more and we don't invest more. But you have to put the pieces
00:11:54.320
together as much as what I'm saying. You have to actually put it together. But what's California
00:11:58.720
doing? Because California, we know has funded billions and billions of dollars in their
00:12:02.800
infrastructure for their trains that don't exist, their high-speed rails that don't exist. Things
00:12:07.040
that Gavin Newsom said for years would happen, but now they won't. So what's Gavin Newsom's people doing
00:12:11.280
now? California's controversial reparations panel is pushing the state legislature to close 10 prisons
00:12:18.240
in addition to ensuring current inmates also receive. I love this. This is like Gavin Newsom's boys.
00:12:23.360
This is their next thing. Ensuring that current inmates receive fair wages and be eligible to
00:12:29.360
vote. This is from the Daily Mail. It was earlier reported that the panel was seeking to pass laws
00:12:34.080
creating a wealth tax, mansion tax, and or property tax in order to fund the billion-dollar reparations.
00:12:39.200
The purported figure is being mentioned per person at $223,000. And I want to just remind you
00:12:46.560
that if we get to a point in this country where $223,000 checks are passed out to one group of
00:12:53.200
people and not other groups of people, that is the day our country will be lost. Because
00:12:59.440
you will create so much resentment and so much anger in this country that I don't think you'll be able
00:13:04.400
to put the pieces back. You will shatter this nation. You will absolutely shatter this nation.
00:13:08.640
I'm not even arguing whether, oh, well, should we do rap? What about the Americans? I'm just,
00:13:12.800
I'm saying, I'm telling you like it is. I'm just telling you like it is that if the government walks up
00:13:17.680
and starts doing this, that you will drive people absolutely insane. But let's go through and read
00:13:22.240
some more about this because apparently these are the same prisons that house some of the most
00:13:28.640
notorious prisoners in the entire country, including serial killers, lifelong gang members,
00:13:33.120
right? The Latin Kings, MS-13, they're in the Crips, the Bloods. It's California we're talking about.
00:13:39.120
But what I wanted to get into, in effect, and let me look in this article here.
00:13:42.800
Okay. So it doesn't say exactly. Oh, look at this. The report also recommends developing
00:13:49.440
safe spaces for prisoners. Oh, safe spaces. That's so nice. So you understand what's going
00:13:55.280
on here as well. What they're doing, what they're doing is trying to pave the way
00:14:01.840
for Gavin Newsom again, because as we know, as we know, Gavin Newsom wants to be the president of the
00:14:09.840
United States. But here's a problem with Gavin Newsom when it comes to the intersectional
00:14:13.520
Pokémon points. He doesn't have any. He has zero intersectional Pokémon points. He's a straight
00:14:22.560
white man who has children with his white wife. And so this is a problem for the intersexual,
00:14:29.760
inter, I'm just going to say intersexual Olympics. So in that he's got no points. So what did he do?
00:14:35.440
He's going to push the most extreme reparations. He's going to push the most extreme anti-social
00:14:39.920
policies you've ever seen, like paying criminals to be in prison. This is insane. No serious country
00:14:47.440
would ever do this. But because there are people in this country that actually exist and believe in
00:14:55.120
the full on undermining of our society, the full on undermining of our civilization, they have decided
00:15:00.400
that it is a positive. And what politicians like Gavin Newsom do is they go around to these groups
00:15:05.840
and they say, I will be your champion. I will give you whatever you want. I will do whatever you want
00:15:10.720
in order to attain power. Once they attain that power, they'll never even pick up the phone and call
00:15:16.880
those groups again. Or worse, they'll go turn around and put those groups in charge. Because here's the
00:15:21.760
thing. At the end of the day, ladies and gentlemen, it's not about reparations. It's about destroying
00:15:29.280
society. They hate Western civilization and they want to undermine it. It's as simple as that.
00:15:35.120
That's all they do. These professors, these reformers, these activists, these groups,
00:15:39.760
all they want to do is eke out their resentment, justify it and destroy everything that's been built
00:15:47.520
before them. The dollar just hit a seven month low and we all saw what happened to the crypto market
00:15:52.960

00:16:44.160
Prosecutors in New Mexico formalizing those charges against Baldwin as well as the film's
00:16:50.880
armor, if convicted, both facing up to five years in prison. Actor Alec Baldwin seen for the first time
00:16:57.280
after involuntary manslaughter charges were filed in New Mexico in the shooting death of cinematographer
00:17:02.640
Helena Hutchins on the set of the movie Rust. New court documents filed Tuesday stating Baldwin failed
00:17:10.240
to act to mitigate or correct the reckless safety violations, neither in his capacity as actor nor
00:17:16.000
producer, and that Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, also charged with involuntary manslaughter, failed to do the
00:17:21.600
same in her capacity as the film's armor, directly resulting in Hutchins death. Prosecutors say video and photos
00:17:28.080
from the movie set in October of 2021 show Baldwin with his finger on the trigger. The FBI concluding the
00:17:34.560
trigger had to have been pulled despite Baldwin insisting otherwise. Alec Baldwin has been charged
00:17:42.800
involuntary manslaughter and reckless conduct for shooting and killing his staffer in the New
00:17:49.840
Mexico set, Santa Fe, New Mexico set of his movie Rust in October 2021. And the documents are out. We have
00:17:57.600
them. You guys, it's so much worse than we actually thought. Because what we have here is now
00:18:04.560
the investigatory documents. This is the results of the investigation. So we've seen stuff that's
00:18:09.920
leaked to the media. We've seen public statements from the prosecutors. We've obviously heard Baldwin's
00:18:14.720
completely insane interviews, which he never should have done. But now we've got the cold,
00:18:19.840
hard facts. Now, keep in mind, this isn't all the evidence. But what this is, is a probable cause
00:18:26.000
statement that's leading to the charge. And it's pretty bad. It's very, very bad for Baldwin.
00:18:33.520
And something that producer Angelo actually pointed out, but it's exactly what we've been talking about
00:18:41.040
all along here on the program, is that they investigated the dual roles of Alec Baldwin in
00:18:49.280
this movie. What do I mean by that? They conducted two investigations of Baldwin. They investigated him
00:18:56.240
as an actor and they investigated him as a producer. And this is significant because he's got two sets of
00:19:04.640
liability here. So they actually investigated him both. Listen to this and I'm going to pull up the
00:19:10.880
actual document here. I'll just read from it. Statements and evidence show Baldwin was not present
00:19:16.800
for required firearms training prior to the commencement of filming. Statements, depositions from OSHA,
00:19:23.200
and evidence show Baldwin was provided minimal training on firearms even after Reed, that's the
00:19:28.560
gunner, the armorer, requested more training for Baldwin. I was about to say Gunner's mate.
00:19:34.720
In the deposition taken from Reed, she stated Baldwin had very limited training on the cross draw
00:19:40.160
that was required for the scene on the 21st and limited training in firearms and how to check his own
00:19:44.480
firearm as to whether it was unloaded or loaded, in which Reed felt it was very important in his role
00:19:49.760
on the film. A training session for at least an hour or more in length was scheduled,
00:19:55.040
but the actual training consisted only of approximately 30 minutes, according to Reed.
00:20:00.000
Baldwin was distracted and talking on his cell phone to his family during the required weapons safety
00:20:08.400
training. Baldwin approached responding deputies on the day of the shooting, wanting to talk to them
00:20:14.160
because he believed he was the one who, quote, fired the gun.
00:20:21.840
This is why you don't talk without a lawyer. I keep saying this. This is why you do not talk
00:20:26.880
with a lawyer. Baldwin later asserted that he never fired the revolver that had just, quote,
00:20:31.920
gone off. He made this assertion public as well as in multiple media interviews conducted after the
00:20:37.680
shooting. Many media interviews and law enforcement interviews were conducted by Baldwin and he displayed
00:20:43.840
very inconsistent accounts of what happened during the incident. Now we get into the actual evidence
00:20:49.760
here. This is so fascinating. Photo and video evidence from inside the church on the day of the
00:20:55.840
shooting show some of the rehearsal up to and including moments before the shooting. The photos and
00:21:02.000
videos depict the above described actions as Baldwin prior to the shooting practicing drawing and pointing
00:21:07.920
the weapon. The photos and videos clearly show Baldwin multiple times with his finger inside of the trigger
00:21:15.440
guard and on the trigger while manipulating the hammer and while drawing, pointing and holstering the
00:21:22.320
revolver. So let me explain something to you. If you are manipulating the hammer with your finger on the trigger,
00:21:29.680
you are completely insane if you're doing that while you're pointing it at another human being that
00:21:34.480
you do not intend to destroy. That is the point of the gun. That is why the business end is never to
00:21:40.480
be pointed at someone that you do not intend to kill. A gun does one thing. A firearm does one thing. It
00:21:48.400
pushes a piece of metal forward. That's the only thing it does. It's as simple as that. And the mechanism for
00:21:54.960
that is the trigger and the hammer helps with that trigger. Because if you've decocked the hammer,
00:22:04.240
now the pressure required on the trigger is going to be much, much less. So if you're fiddling around
00:22:11.600
with that thing while your finger's on the trigger, all you're doing is asking for trouble. It's like
00:22:17.600
driving a car down. It's like driving a car through the Holland tunnel backwards and getting upset at
00:22:27.040
the people driving the other way. That's exactly what Alec Baldwin did here. The revolver involved
00:22:33.600
in the shooting was seized by detectives as evidence. It was later submitted to the FBI crime lab. They go
00:22:38.720
through the various experiments. They tried to get it to fire without the trigger. They tried striking the
00:22:44.160
hammer. They tried multiple angles against a solid object, striking the hammer of the revolver with an
00:22:49.040
actual hammer. The revolver did not malfunction. It did not misfire. The same revolver. The analysis clearly
00:22:56.080
showed that the weapon could not accidentally fire. For the weapon to fire, the FBI in their ballistics lab
00:23:02.800
found only one way. They found only one way for it to fire. The pulling of the trigger of the firearm. And all of this
00:23:11.280
documentation went down. They also go through, and I don't have time to read through the entire document
00:23:16.400
here, but I encourage you to go read the charging documents yourself to see what they are because
00:23:20.160
they also investigate Baldwin's role as the producer. It was his job to ensure the safety of
00:23:26.800
the set. It was his job to ensure the safety of his own employees on the set. He failed to do that. In fact,
00:23:34.400
given the sense that this was a rehearsal in the first place, given that,
00:23:37.760
why were they using a real gun at all? Why not just use a prop? Why not use a replica? Why not use
00:23:43.920
a rubber gun? Why not just hold your hand there? There's no reason whatsoever for him to be used an
00:23:50.640
actual gun for this. It was obviously reckless conduct. And this is why, this is why just like
00:23:57.040
driving your car backwards through the Holland Tunnel is reckless on your part because you are liable for
00:24:03.360
your actions. When you're holding a gun, you know that it is an inherently dangerous object,
00:24:09.600
that no matter what you're doing, no matter who talked to you about the gun, no matter who
00:24:14.480
handed the gun to you and said, don't worry about it, et cetera, et cetera. It does not matter
00:24:18.640
because just like when you get behind the wheel of a car, the actions taken afterwards are yours.
00:24:24.320
If you borrow someone's car and you mow someone down with it, that other person is not liable. You are.
00:24:31.040
You are the person who did it. Now, there could be other circumstances if the other person saw your
00:24:34.880
inebriated, et cetera, et cetera, but you get what I'm saying. Alec Baldwin, this case does not look
00:24:40.800
good for you. I hope your lawyers do yourself a favor and tell you to shut up. Ladies and gentlemen,
00:24:47.520
as always, you have my permission to lay ashore.
