When the Fourth Turning meets 5th Generation Warfare, a commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran, Jack Posobiec, joins host Jack to discuss what happens when the 4th Turning meets fifth generation warfare.
00:10:07.280You mentioned this bag that was left on a juror's front doorstep when a lot of people were then paying attention, it seemed, to this trial in downtown Minneapolis.
00:10:19.400But, yeah, can you even imagine it, more than $100,000 dropped off at a doorstep?
00:10:24.480And they specifically identified this juror because she was a woman of color, they said.
00:10:30.040These are Somali defendants, for the most part, involved in this fraud.
00:10:34.260But what's interesting is Alpha News has uncovered also Heather Mueller.
00:10:37.680You have Governor Walz quickly say that the person is no longer in charge at the top of his education commissioner.
00:10:46.920But interestingly enough, she transferred to a different job that received a pretty lucrative state contract just recently that we've done some reporting on as well.
00:10:55.500So now you have people in Washington, rightfully so, trying to get to the bottom of this.
00:11:00.760I think it's September 18th that Walz has to reply to this subpoena.
00:11:08.720What can they find as far as documentation is concerned?
00:11:12.240Because he certainly knew about this early on.
00:11:17.380We've reported on that as well at Alpha News.
00:11:21.000But many of these defendants have made campaign contributions to different politicians in Minnesota, too.
00:11:27.840So a lot of questions that still need to be answered.
00:11:30.940And I want to just put this, put a price tag on this for everybody, that we're not talking about, you know, a couple of thousand dollars here, a couple of thousand dollars there.
00:11:39.500If I'm reading this correctly, and fact check me in real time if I'm wrong, Liz, they are accused of defrauding the government of $250 million.
00:11:49.380That's a quarter of a billion dollars.
00:11:53.500What's interesting is there's nearly $500 million in fraud that has happened here in Minnesota under Governor Walz.
00:12:02.700We've uncovered Medicaid fraud that has happened.
00:12:06.360Again, many Somali defendants involved in that.
00:12:09.120Basically submitting reimbursement for trips that were not taken to doctors' offices, chiropractic clinics.
00:12:17.700There's extensive fraud that has happened in Minnesota these last few years.
00:12:22.180So this Feeding Our Future scandal has rightfully, you know, has received a lot of attention.
00:12:28.760But we continue to cover people being charged and even more fraud within Minnesota here.
00:12:51.520That's certainly not the only case of fraud.
00:12:53.780But just to put that in perspective for folks, we're talking about $250 million in one case, so a quarter of a billion dollars, another quarter of a billion dollars in these various other cases.
00:13:03.260By the way, we're showing a video of who is this individual, Amy Brock, who, or excuse me, Amy, Amy Bach or Brock, who is basically the head or the face of the organization.
00:13:15.420Yeah, if I recall correctly, she reached some sort of plea deal in the case.
00:13:20.420Another person who was charged with connections with the education department.
00:13:26.440But you also have a Walls who's been pictured.
00:14:35.520And essentially, it's she claimed that she wasn't involved.
00:14:39.260Even all of this went on under her nose.
00:14:42.280Pretty much everyone else who was defending this was one of the and there's also, by the way, there's so it was it was restaurants who were involved in this.
00:14:49.520Essentially, they were it was all on paper, if I have this correct.
00:14:52.320So the restaurant would say that they gave out, you know, thousands of meals.
00:14:56.100But in reality, we could tell that there weren't thousands of meals and they were just happy to accept the money for it and fill out the paperwork.
00:15:03.280Yeah. And what's interesting, too, is that a lot of work was done just by almost citizen journalists here here in Minnesota at the time.
00:15:10.220They would go to these sites after this started, you know, hitting hitting the news.
00:15:15.640And you could easily see that it wouldn't even be possible to facilitate, you know, thousands of meals that would be served out of, you know, a basement or a church that that would be would be there sitting empty.
00:15:28.900So this didn't take a lot of investigative work to to realize that this just was not happening.
00:15:34.980And instead, all of this money was just lining the pockets of these people.
00:15:38.320Again, more than 70 people have been been charged at this point.
00:15:42.460And I have some some sources that have worked the case and they they've said that that all the charges are still not even complete when it comes to not only the feeding our future fraud scheme,
00:15:52.820but other things that we've been reporting on in Minnesota.
00:15:55.820And you have the legislative auditor's office that has come out and said,
00:15:59.820what the heck is basically going on at the state level that that more red flags, you know, haven't been thrown up in the wake of all of this?
00:16:08.580Where are the safeguards? Why is this you know, why has this been allowed to continue when it comes to so many other programs?
00:16:14.320Well, and it seems, by the way, we have that photo that you mentioned, I believe that's Tim Walls with Defendant 58 in the program.
00:16:21.860And it seems to me to smack of political correctness and this danger of being accused.
00:16:28.140Look, Tim Walls has been someone who's who's labeled his entire campaign, his entire political career about bringing people over from the Middle East.
00:16:37.240We're welcoming. We're welcoming migrants. We're welcoming refugees. We're the Emma Lazarus poem over and over again.
00:16:43.360And so to be, you know, to have to then turn around and claim that these people were involved with fraud,
00:16:48.400to have to put scrutiny over them would fly in the face of his political prospects.
00:16:53.280Yeah, it's interesting. I've had some conversation conversations with Somali voters this time around who have talked about,
00:16:59.920you know, they're conservatives. They don't like a lot of this ideology that's being forced upon their children
00:17:05.980in Minnesota schools, also under Governor Walz. And they've said just how difficult this has been for their community as well.
00:17:15.260But also that in Minnesota, it is a very welcoming place. And they've talked about just how easy this seems to be
00:17:22.080and the message that that seems to send, that you can go ahead and get away with it.
00:17:27.180You know, as you've even talked about this, this bag of money that is left on a juror's doorstep,
00:17:32.260you would expect something like that to happen in a third world country. But but yeah, right here in Minnesota, this that made made international news.
00:17:43.620A bag of money. Look, folks, when someone shows up at your door with a bag of hundreds of thousands of dollars in cold, hard cash,
00:17:52.420and it's decorated with flowers and ribbons, you don't have to be Liz Collin to know that you probably shouldn't touch that money.
00:17:59.140I want to ask you so many more questions about this. We've got to hold you over, because this is what was going on in Tim Walz's Minnesota.
00:18:07.620And if that's what was going on there, then what would he do if he were given access to the White House?

00:19:40.860Liz, we're home with Liz Collin from Alpha News.
00:19:44.020And, you know, Liz, I even saw this other story from the Washington Examiner just a couple of weeks ago.
00:19:49.180Wall's administration awarded $2 million to Muslim Group fundraising for an al-Qaeda-linked charity.
00:19:55.540This is the Islamic Association of North America, 2019, $2 million to this Islamic group with ties to, it says, Kuwait and the group that's actually been sanctioned as fundraising for al-Qaeda.
00:20:10.180This is an issue that a lot of these care groups were running into in the past.
00:20:13.700What exactly is Wall's relationship with these various communities?
00:20:17.080I think there are questions that need to be answered when it comes to all of this.
00:20:23.480I mean, as we've talked about already before, Jack, being pushed upon the public as this, you know, very moderate Minnesotan who wears flannel and camouflage hat at all times.
00:20:38.100He's really anything but, he embraces this left-wing radical ideology, and it's all there in his past.
00:20:47.040But yet he has yet to answer any real questions.
00:20:50.520I mean, you have that, you know, I would call it a disastrous interview with CNN where he called the rest of us liars because he just talks like regular people, right?
00:21:00.820That's why he's lied about so many things in his past.
00:21:04.260You have him, he made a trip to the Minnesota State Fair this last weekend where he was asked a couple of softball questions and a reporter then asked, you know, what he had to say after, you know, the horrific news of the hostages, the Israeli hostages being killed.
00:21:20.220And he quickly looks at his press person, gives the nod and says, all right, thank you, and doesn't even answer the question and then has to issue a statement hours later.
00:21:28.220We saw it in Lancaster County yesterday that the press was told to leave the guy alone, and this is really how he has run the ship here in Minnesota.
00:21:38.760He enjoys a press that for the most part leaves him unscathed.
00:21:44.720But if you do get out of line or ask a question, you know, they don't like that.
00:21:49.300And he's basically been in hiding since being the VP pick.
00:21:53.900But we had an $18 billion surplus going into this last legislative session.
00:21:59.040He was actually at one point, I think, promising $2,000 checks to every household in Minnesota trying to buy votes at the time.
00:22:08.880And that surplus was dwindled down to nothing.
00:22:13.640In fact, it sounds like, you know, they'll be raising taxes this next year as a result of, you know, decisions that were made.
00:22:21.760So there's a lot of scrutiny that, you know, the Minnesota budget certainly deserves.
00:22:28.580And much of that, you know, some of that money, it seems, going to these radical groups that have supported him in the past.
00:22:35.360And so there was some interesting polling that came out and something where, you know, I'm one of these guys who, when I get good news, I try to just categorically reject it because, you know, too good to be true, et cetera.
00:22:49.440You know, like a bag of money showing up at my doorstep covered in flowers and ribbons.
00:22:52.580But it says that the polls for Kamala Harris in the state of Minnesota have been cut in half since Tim Walls was added to the ticket, which, of course, you know, typically when you add someone to your ticket who's the sitting governor of a state, like, you know, like if, you know, if J.D. Vance was the governor of Ohio or something,
00:23:13.340that you would expect to get something of a boost in that state or a bolstering because of their standing.
00:23:19.620Is this true that her polling has actually dropped in the state after choosing the governor of that very same state?
00:23:27.420Yeah, and I think it really does point to, you know, what I've been saying, that so many people have turned on him in this state.
00:23:34.260So the first poll, this is conducted by KSTP and SurveyUSA, was in July when Harris was picked, you know, basically then by President Biden.
00:23:46.400So 50 percent at the time during that poll were going for Harris, 40 percent for Trump in Minnesota.
00:23:52.300Keep in mind, Minnesota has not elected or voted in favor, I should say, of a Republican presidential candidate since 1972.
00:23:59.700So it's been a long time since Richard Nixon.
00:24:01.280But then the poll is conducted weeks later after the news, of course, that Minnesota's governor has been chosen as the vice presidential pick by Kamala Harris.
00:24:13.320And from 50 percent then to 48 percent then for Harris and 43 percent for Trump.
00:24:19.880So this five point turnaround, which, again, is pretty remarkable news considering he is the governor of this state.
00:24:28.740Yeah, there were there's even some reporting that Kamala's camp is actually has a little bit of buyer's remorse there and is wishing that she had actually chosen Josh Shapiro, the governor of my home state of Pennsylvania.
00:24:42.880Although she did not choose him because there's a guy who's got a lot of skeletons in his closet as well.
00:24:48.840And folks of Human Events Daily know that, oh, me and Josh, you go way, way back.
00:24:53.580Yes, we do. And I know so, so much more about him.
00:24:56.520But I'm I'm interested to hear what Tim Walls is up to, because it seems this is something that two of them absolutely have in common.
00:25:03.740Now, I don't know that Josh Shapiro has been involved with as many Somali migrant groups and is Islamist charity fronts that are fundraising for militants in the Middle East.
00:25:16.920I thought that he was just, you know, mayonnaise tacos and carrying weapons of war in in Iraq.
00:25:23.120And it turns out that there's so much more to Timothy than meets the eye.
00:25:28.280And do you know, we're told, by the way, that if I remember correctly, that the Harris Walls campaign, either either him or both of them are going to be spending time in Minnesota in this week.
00:25:40.440You know, this is not a state that typically, as you say, Democrats normally would be spending time in or nor trying to campaign in.
00:25:48.200And do you think that there is a possibility that adding him to the ticket actually has hurt their standing in the Rust Belt?
00:25:56.200Yeah, I mean, I think that some of the polling seems to suggest just that.
00:26:02.240And I think even in Minnesota, I think for the first time, Minnesotans are really learning, for the most part, who this guy is, because it has forced the local media here in the state and Minnesota's largest newspaper, the Star Tribune, who walls his very good friend and former commissioner, Steve Grove, is running that paper.
00:26:21.100But they've been forced to actually report on so many of these aspects of Governor Walz and his past, these connections to China, the fraud story, you know, what does business look like in Minnesota now, going back to even the George Floyd riots and how he hid for days during those riots, bringing this all back up.
00:26:44.960And for the most part, this being new to many, to many people.
00:26:50.220But, you know, Trump has obviously said that he thinks Minnesota is in play and has been here a couple of times already.
00:26:56.300And I think we expect his campaign to be back here as well.
00:27:00.740But I think even those numbers are pretty telling in that, you know, Minnesota-focused poll that Kamala Harris has lost support as a result of picking the person who is, you know, the head of the state here.
00:27:16.900I'd love, by the way, I think the next phase that I want to get into, of course, is looking into these trips in China.
00:27:22.700And, you know, it's something where the 30 trips and, you know, I'm a guy who I lived in China for two years and I've told people that a million times.
00:28:10.960A brother of his has come out against him.
00:28:13.740He's backtracked a little bit, it sounds like.
00:28:16.360But, you know, it doesn't seem to be on the best, you know, on the best footing with his own family, which some might say says says quite a bit about his ideology.
00:28:27.960But, you know, he kind of fled to Minnesota after this this DUI.
00:28:32.760But there's certainly a lot more there when it comes to his time in Nebraska.
00:28:38.240You know, he was in the National Guard making these trips to China.
00:28:41.440So what did did they know or did he, in fact, even disclose that?
00:28:47.520So much more that that needs to come out.
00:28:49.540It needs to come out pretty quick as we as November is going to be here before we know it.
00:28:57.080When I spent time in China, I've said this publicly many times, that I would see American politicians come over again and again.
00:29:02.660And rather than them going and promoting democracy or promoting the American system, what I would see is that American politicians, by and large, would go to China and become enamored with the China system and the China model, the government top down model where government is in charge and citizens are sort of just waiting to hear what government what decision is going to be made.
00:29:25.380And it seems to me that that's exactly what happened with Tim Walz, that he went over there, became completely enamored with the CCP's model, and he's waved away these atrocities like Tiananmen Square, which apparently he was, I think, as far as I can tell, he was actually in China when it happened or right around that time.
00:29:43.700And he seems to love their model so much that he's willing to overlook such things.
00:29:48.520And he's implemented that in his state.
00:29:50.440He seems to love the model so much, Jack, that he was married on the five-year anniversary, I don't even like calling it that, of Tiananmen Square, so he could remember the date.
00:30:02.600And those are things that his wife has actually said.
00:30:07.980There's certainly so many parallels to the way that this state has been transformed under walls, and so much of it being kind of that power trip that he's on.
00:30:20.440Liz, where can people go to follow you to get all the receipts that we know you constantly have?
00:30:26.220Yeah, follow us on Alpha News, M-N-A-L-P-H-A, News, M-N, on X, or alphanews.org is our website.
00:32:06.880Okay, so what you just saw there was an undercover video with the head of public affairs for the DOJ's Southern District of New York saying that, essentially, these cases against Trump are a joke.
00:32:21.440They are completely a travesty of justice, and they are just driven by people who are obsessed with getting Trump.
00:32:28.320And that comes with us by way of Lauder with Crowder.
00:32:31.120And we've got Gerald Morgan, Jr., the CEO, joining us once again.
00:32:40.200Unfortunately, what we just saw was a confirmation of what we all thought was the case, that these charges were Trumped-up charges, that they didn't make any sense,
00:32:48.500that this was just Alvin Bragg trying to make a name for himself out to get Donald Trump.
00:32:55.900It's not just people talking about this on the Internet.
00:32:57.980It's not just talking heads on shows saying it.
00:32:59.820It's actually people with inside information, people that are in the game at the highest levels coming out and telling you that this is all nonsense,
00:33:07.560that this is all a travesty of justice, that all of my friends know this, all my buddies know this.
00:33:12.800But they didn't come out and say that publicly.
00:33:17.700They had to be found out behind the scenes, unfortunately.
00:33:21.580And fortunately for us, we can actually get this information out there because of Mug Club.
00:33:26.400And we're excited that we got it out there, but it's aggravating and it's frustrating.
00:33:30.640And I think everybody here has a right to be pissed off that this is actually confirmed what is going on behind the scenes.
00:33:35.460And it's one of those cases where, you know, you see something that we all in the public kind of get it.
00:33:44.720We understand these are unprecedented charges.
00:33:47.580These are cases that would never be brought against anyone else.
00:33:50.420But what really strikes me is how brazen this guy is to just be freely admitting it to someone that, you know, clearly you shouldn't be talking to.
00:34:01.020And that's, oh, yeah, that's exactly what it is.
00:34:22.720They know that they can bring these kinds of cases against Donald Trump that are absolutely 100 percent junk cases that would not be brought against anybody else.
00:34:30.620And nobody's going to hold them accountable, not the voters, not people in the Department of Justice, and certainly not the press.
00:34:37.200They're not going to call him to the carpet when they need to.
00:34:39.740And so everybody behind the scenes is talking about this, saying, yeah, this is what's going on.
00:34:44.560But all of us are left out here going, wait a minute.
00:34:46.500I thought I thought we we lived in a democratic republic where we get to elect the president, not you guys get to throw him in jail when he looks like he's going to win.
00:34:53.020And that's that's what this looks like.
00:34:54.740It's exactly what they're trying to do.
00:34:56.260And and look, Nicholas Biazzi, he needs to stand up and say this.
00:35:02.160Too many people in his office knew this was a sham.
00:35:05.020Too many people in Alvin Braggs office know this is a sham and they're not standing up and saying, hey, hey, this isn't good.
00:35:12.420This will ultimately result in the downfall of this country if you can just lock your political opponent up when he's leading in the polls.
00:35:19.320Well, and of course, what we know is going to happen is that the is that Kamala Harris will inevitably fail in this debate that comes up next week.
00:35:29.360They're going to sentence him just a couple of days later.
00:35:31.960I think it's what, eight days after the debate is when the sentencing takes place.
00:35:36.120And if we're listening to this, well, it sounds like he already knows the future because it sounds like he's basically saying that Trump will be sentenced to prison.
00:35:44.080Yeah, and he even refers to the state level of prosecution as the effing Wild West.
00:36:20.620And I don't think that's the kind of justice system that any of us want, because let's say that Alvin Bragg brings these charges, distracts Donald Trump long enough, gets to sentencing.
00:36:30.580He's keeping somebody from campaigning.
00:36:32.380Now, fortunately for Donald Trump, we all know enough about who he is and what he has done and the kind of job he would do as president that it doesn't seem like all this stuff sticks.
00:36:41.560But they're trying to get people not to vote for a convicted felon and instead vote for the prosecutor.
00:36:48.480That's this case that is being outlined right here.
00:36:56.320Facebook is actively preventing right now the upload of the Rumble link on its platform, flagging it for breaching community guidelines immediately.
00:37:05.340All the other links that we've tried to put up on other videos, totally fine.
00:37:10.180The one place that we want people to go to see this Rumble, Facebook, Meta, Mark Zuckerberg, who apparently had a mea culpa moment a couple of weeks ago.
00:37:18.560A guess it didn't take is now actively censoring this so that people cannot find this story.
00:37:23.740So what does this mean going forward for the cases?
00:37:27.880Is this something that Trump's lawyers can use in in making filings, making motions, potentially appealing to higher courts?
00:37:35.540That's going to be something that the lawyers are going to have to decide.
00:37:39.860I know in the court of public opinion right now where a lot of this is being tried, especially at holding a DA accountable for his actions, because vote those people in.
00:37:50.080This is absolutely going to have an impact on it.
00:37:52.840What I want Donald Trump to be able to say when she says you're a convicted felon, when they're on that debate stage next week, is say, watch the video.
00:41:15.100Well, the main thing I had to ask about, you know, I know it's been a couple of days past since all this, but I can't get over it.
00:41:21.940This whole controversy that started with President Trump attending a memorial service at Arlington National Cemetery and then Kamala Harris attacking Gold Star families.
00:41:34.300I've got to get you in as a veteran, someone who's been a veteran leader also to talk about this scandal.
00:41:40.660So, first off, Trump had appropriate approvals to have a photographer there in that area.
00:42:23.900Oh, by the way, Kamala Harris and Joe Biden were asked to be there, too, and Joe was sending himself like a beach whale on a beach, and Kamala was at her residence in Washington, D.C., within, I think, less than five miles from the site of the ceremony.
00:42:39.860So, she could have been there easy, but it was a political choice not to be there because they don't want to publicly acknowledge they murdered these 13 people.
00:42:50.700And so, Trump's there with the families, giving them comfort and support at a critical time, and yet, somehow, we're supposed to believe his being there, being photographed by others, and not a single—let me be very clear on this as well—not a single photograph taken was for the campaign, ended up on a campaign site.
00:43:11.500It's on Donald Trump's personal social media.
00:43:15.420And other families, other politicians have also posted pictures.
00:43:19.700Again, this has been completely misportrayed by the progressive left's media.
00:43:27.740Everything was appropriately done, I think, with a great deal of care and concern for those families.
00:43:32.720And, Jack, I think this is horrible, that Kamala then, because she lost the battle of the narrative, then attacks the families who she helped murder by the fact she was the one who was last in a room with Joe Biden before he pulled the trigger, so to speak, of the completely feckless and ineffective dangerous withdrawal from Afghanistan.
00:43:56.100And the—you know what's interesting to me is that in another—I get that, you know, we don't live in the previous era of politics that we used to.
00:44:06.440I get that everything has changed, but this one really just jumped out at me, and it strikes me, because in another era of politics, this would be something that ends a campaign.
00:44:15.520This would be something that's like, you're done.
00:44:19.060And this is different, by the way, it's different from what happened in 2016, where the—where there was a Gold Star father who got into it with Trump, but he went and spoke at the DNC and attacked Trump personally at the DNC when Trump hadn't even been in office at the time.
00:44:39.320So that's totally different from what happened here.
00:44:43.780And at the time, again, the mainstream media carried the water of a false set of comments and statements from this Gold Star father.
00:44:51.860I mean, I feel sorry for the father, but it wasn't Donald Trump's doing.
00:44:55.500And in this case, it was not Donald Trump's doing that those 13 service members perished.
00:45:00.440It was because of both the strategic policies of this administration to abandon the pogrom, to pull the military out before you pull the civilians and State Department out.
00:45:11.260And then you make that mistake, and then the tactical mistake of giving up Bagram and not maintaining Bagram, as was the plan, the Pompeo plan, was to maintain Bagram indefinitely, to do special operations, direct support operations, as well as intelligence collection operations.
00:45:31.820Bagram is a much more logical location.
00:45:34.580It's located about 40 miles from Kabul.
00:45:37.660I spent a lot of time there, and it would have given a better area of protection and area to process individuals to get them in or to get them on the airplanes.
00:45:49.000And, of course, that was given up overnight.
00:45:51.940So those strategic and tactical decisions made by Kamala Harris, because she was the last person in the room, resulted in the tragic and unnecessary deaths of 13 Americans that Donald Trump tried to comfort the families.
00:46:05.360And, yes, Kamala Harris's campaign and Tinkerbell, Tim Walz's campaign should both be ended at this point because of that very issue.
00:46:13.220Well, you know, I mean, the entire thing has just been completely insane to me, plus you've got the hostages that were lost in Rafa, the same family who spoke at the DNC.
00:46:25.900Again, these are things that in another era of Jimmy Carter, when Jimmy Carter presided over the loss of a failed hostage rescue operation, many people point out that that ended his career.
00:46:37.220This is, by the way, one of the things that led to the creation of JSOC.
00:46:43.520Look, Desert One was the career ender for Jimmy Carter, and two reasons, because he, like Kamala and Joe, were meddling in military affairs.
00:46:52.700Jimmy Carter, just for a quick aside, Jimmy Carter purposely cut the number of heavy lift helicopters out.
00:47:01.580He cut the number by, I think, five, and by cutting five helicopters out of the plan, he literally doomed it because they knew, Jack, going into Desert One, just by mechanical failure and other odds, you're not going to have, you're going to have to have a number of, enough helicopters to go into Tehran to do the grab.
00:47:22.580If you don't have that number, you can't get them all out.
00:47:24.420And he, by cutting the number of available airframes, doomed the plan.
00:47:30.400And back then, I don't think people really held back in JSOC.
00:47:36.840So he personally involved himself in a military plan.
00:47:40.700Same thing with Kamala Harris and Joe Biden.
00:47:43.240There was a cohesive, effective plan to both reconcile the Taliban and the Afghan government, as well as oversee a conditions-based withdrawal.
00:47:51.740Well, they abandoned that, and they decided, oh, I'm smarter than all the military leaders, and I do fault people like Jerome McKenzie, who was a commander of Central Command, who did not speak up and resign over the fact that he was told to execute orders he knew would fail.
00:48:10.000We've got to get you on for more on this because it's a fascinating story.
00:48:13.160We're just about out of time of the episode.
