On today's episode of Lumer Unleashed, host Laura Merriman is joined by Canadian journalist Sam Cooper to discuss the latest in the Trump administration's trade war with Canada, including the latest on Laura Loomer's case and whether or not she's the most hated person on the planet.
00:21:36.000We have a very informative and interesting show for you tonight, focused on the tariffs and what President Trump calls Liberation Day.
00:21:46.000Tomorrow, April 2nd, is when President Trump's auto tariffs on Canada are supposed to and expected to go into effect, and so I'm going to be joined tonight by a guest from Canada.
00:21:57.000Journalist Sam Cooper, who's going to break this down and explain to us what all of the contention is really about and how President Trump's tariffs are actually a good thing, not just for our country here in the United States of America, but also in Canada, despite all of the protests and complaints from the Canadians.

00:23:37.000We broke open and we exposed who was funding these groups, who is organizing the Tesla takedown protests.
00:23:43.000Over an entire month ago, if you've been following along with our Tesla takedown watchdoge community on X, then you are aware of all of this information and you have been aware of it for over a month now.
00:23:56.000And so it was kind of funny, and I chuckled, admittedly, this weekend when I was scrolling through my phone and I saw a report on X from Fox News.
00:24:06.000And they said, oh, we just found out who's organizing and funding all of these Tesla takedown protests.
00:24:12.000And it's like, okay, Fox, get with the program here.
00:24:14.000We literally broke this story over a month ago.

00:24:21.000And you're going to see through my conversation tonight with the guests I'm about to bring on, Sam Cooper, just how far ahead of the curve the independent media, independent journalists truly are when it comes to breaking the news and predicting, you know, global trends and patterns and telling you things that you need to know about, not just here in the United States of America, but on the global scale.
00:24:44.000And it seems like the mainstream media, they have a multimillion dollar, sometimes billion dollar budgets to, you know, carry out these very expensive looking, fancy looking news broadcasts.
00:24:56.000But at the end of the day, they are so far behind.

00:27:56.000All righty, moving on now, as I mentioned earlier in the beginning of the show, tomorrow is what President Trump is calling Liberation Day.
00:28:05.000It's when the auto tariffs in Canada finally go into effect, and this has caused a lot of contention between President Trump and the Prime Minister of Canada, and it's also become a focal point ahead of the Uh, highly anticipated Canadian elections, which are going to be taking place on April 28th.
00:28:25.000And so I figured, uh, who better to talk about this and to really tell us the true story about these tariffs and to explain why there's such a protest from the left and, uh, you know, the left wing party in Canada and also from the Democrats here in the United States and why the tariffs are actually a good thing for not just the United States, but also Canada and the Canadian people.
00:28:50.000Joining me now to discuss is independent journalist Sam Cooper, founder of the Bureau.
00:28:56.000Sam, thank you so much for joining me on Loomer Unleashed.
00:29:00.000It's a pleasure to have you and congratulations because you're really shaking up the elections in Canada and you're really shaking up just U.S.-Canada relations with your intrepid investigative reporting and I wanted to
00:29:18.000I can't believe that a lot of these reports that you're, you know, you're breaking and the information that you're uncovering, uh, as it relates to fentanyl trafficking and money laundering in Canada and how it all ties back into the U.S. economy and the tariffs.
00:29:32.000This should really be all over mainstream media news and it's a shame that it's not.
00:29:41.000It's so good to be with you, Laura, and I would just like to say I can break some news for your listeners.
00:29:46.000Last night after midnight, a Canadian politician running for Prime Minister, Mark Carney, the Liberal Prime Minister, stepped down after allegations were raised that he had encouraged Chinese-language news reporters, and it had been reported that his political rival on the opposition Conservatives, who is from Hong Kong, a Canadian citizen, Could be turned over to the Chinese consulate for a bounty on that man.
00:30:16.000It just shows the really, I would say, the incredible penetration of Chinese infiltration in Canada.
00:30:25.000So this politician stepped down after my reporting broke the news Friday and Hong Kong Canadians and democracy activists around the world put pressure on Canada's police force to investigate these allegations.
00:30:41.000So basically what you're saying is that a candidate on the left side of the political aisle who is aligned with Mark Carney, who is now the interim Prime Minister filling Justin Trudeau's position since he resigned after being humiliated by President Trump.
00:31:00.000He's going to be our 51st governor, according to President Trump.
00:31:03.000We're going to have a 51st state here with Governor Trudeau.
00:31:09.000What you're saying then is that this Chinese individual referred his political opponent for arrest to a CCP tip line and suggested that they should turn over a Canadian citizen to the to CCP authorities?
00:31:26.000Well, I'll break it down a little bit because it's important.
00:31:29.000My reporting has shown that Chinese language media in Canada has been completely taken over by the Communist Party in Beijing.
00:31:37.000The Beijing operatives essentially control all...
00:31:43.000and there's a lot of Chinese news outlets in Canada.
00:31:46.000In the United States, by the way, this should be happening too, but what happens is they get the local Chinese reporters to meet with agents, agree on how stories will be reported, what narratives to push for Beijing, and this is key to this story.
00:32:01.000This liberal candidate and sitting parliamentarian, Paul Chiang, from the Toronto area, met with Chinese journalists exclusively in January, and he told them if his rival was elected because his rival is under this illegal Hong Kong national security law,
00:32:20.000This Liberal candidate said you could turn him over to the Chinese consulate and get your bounty of something like, it's a million Hong Kong dollars, which is about, you know, $150,000 American.
00:32:36.000Obviously, when I broke this story on Friday, a firestorm starts and Mark Carney yet told Canadian media, That this he still had confidence in this candidate.
00:33:05.000But I say that this is there's a much bigger story, and that is Chinese election interference across Canada.
00:33:13.000I broke that news, Laura, for the past two elections, and it connects, I believe, to Donald Trump's concerns that China has infiltrated Canada.
00:33:23.000Well, China has also infiltrated the United States of America, and we have a lot of fifth column CCP networks here in the United States of America as well.
00:33:32.000This is something that I've been focused on exposing lately as well.
00:33:37.000There is a bit of a scandal Relating to the Deputy National Security Advisor, who is Chinese, believe it or not, here in the United States of America, after the Signalgate controversy due to some, you know, investigative reporting and my report, which uncovered that his father-in-law ends up, actually holds stock.
00:33:59.000His father-in-law has since passed away, but his father-in-law is one of the biggest shareholders in AsiaSat, which is the largest satellite company in China and the largest satellite provider in Asia.
00:34:11.000And so long story short, it doesn't matter whether it's Canada or the United States of America, there is a growing trend of CCP infiltration, not just election interference, but also drug trading.
00:34:25.000And so that's what I wanted to focus on next, because if you pull up the tariff announcement by President Trump out of uh the white house from february 1st 2025 says fact sheet president donald j trump imposes tariffs on imports from canada mexico and china the extraordinary threat posed by illegal aliens and drugs including deadly fentanyl constitutes a national emergency under the international emergency economic powers act Until the
00:34:55.000crisis is alleviated, President Trump is implementing a 25% tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico and an additional 10% tariff on imports from China.
00:35:05.000Energy resources from Canada will have a lower tariff of 10%.
00:35:09.000Some of your reporting also focuses on how The Canadian banks are being utilized by Chinese fentanyl manufacturers and then that fentanyl is being transported across the border into the United States of America to poison and kill United States citizens.
00:35:30.000This is groundbreaking reporting and you know there's been so much discussion about Oh, you know, President Trump is just trying to retaliate against Canada, and this is going to destroy our relationship with the Canadians.
00:35:43.000But really, what the media doesn't want to focus on is the extreme money laundering and drug We're good to
00:36:15.000go. You know, create this imaginary divide between between the politicians here in the United States and the politicians in Canada.
00:36:26.000Yeah, first of all, you know, as a Canadian, I do think it's a hammer that's titting a very serious problem.
00:36:33.000But the problem is that, you know, you know, good working Canadians will get hurt with with broad tariffs.
00:36:39.000So I do believe and I'm in contact with people in the American government That the real concern here is that Canadian banks and financial institutions, that includes, you know, government run casinos, have turned a complete blind eye to the Chinese transnational triads that are running Western Hemisphere money laundering from North America.
00:37:02.000And so this includes, you know, big Canadian banks being used for massive amounts.
00:37:07.000And when I say massive, I mean multiple tens of billions of dollars laundered through Canadian banks.
00:37:14.000Hundreds of billions laundered through the connected Canadian real estate sector and casinos.
00:37:20.000And so it's a very complex financial system.
00:37:23.000You know, if you can let me break it down for a second.
00:37:25.000Look, everyone knows fentanyl precursors produced in China.
00:37:29.000They can't just ship out those pills because, of course, American law enforcement will catch that.
00:37:34.000They send the precursors into the West Coast of Mexico and the West Coast of Canada.
00:37:58.000Because everybody always talks about how, oh, you know, it's just, it's just the Mexican cartels, which have since been designated as transnational, designated terrorist organizations by the Trump administration.
00:38:11.000And so, A lot of people, I think, don't really understand how the Mexican cartels work with Islamic terrorist organizations and also the CCP to transport fentanyl into the United States of America and also other parts of the world.
00:38:27.000They think it's just, you know, groups like, you know, the Mexican cartels and then the gangs from South and Central America like MS-13 or Train de Aragua, which seems to be the focus now of President Trump's deportation policy.
00:38:41.000But I think that we also need to have a very serious conversation about the amount of visas that we're giving to Chinese nationals and also the rate of Chinese illegal immigration into the United States of America, not just through the southern border, which is something I saw, you know, firsthand when I traveled down to the Darien Gap in Panama, but also a lot of the Chinese illegals who are coming into our country are crossing in illegally through the northern border with Canada.
00:39:10.000And these people are You know, working hand-in-hand with the cartels, as your reporting has laid out and exposed, to poison Americans.
00:39:18.000And you don't really hear the media talk about this.
00:39:21.000When you think of, when you think of fentanyl importation, the first thing I think that comes to most people's minds is, oh, you know, Mexican drug cartels.
00:39:30.000But I think that when you, when you, maybe you could break down the, the ratio, if you have the numbers on this, you know, Who's bringing in more fentanyl into our country?
00:39:44.000The Chinese via the CCP and their CCP financed fentanyl labs or the Mexican cartels?
00:39:53.000People aren't understanding the complexity that the American government knows that the Chinese triads with known and proven connections to the highest levels of the Chinese Communist Party are the directors and financiers, essentially, of the Mexican cartels.
00:40:10.000Who, of course, everyone knows, the most violent organizations in the world.
00:40:14.000The Mexican cartels, we can see them as the thug distribution arm, the enforcers.
00:40:20.000But the Chinese triads, again, set up in Canadian cities with deep ties to financial institutions.
00:40:27.000They underwrite the fentanyl being laundered, sorry, trafficked into American cities.
00:40:33.000And then how it works is the Chinese organized crime has people pick up the cash from those sales.
00:40:40.000It's warehoused in, you know, grocery stores, underground casinos, massage parlors.
00:40:46.000Then that cash is, you know, distributed back to the Mexican cartels.
00:40:50.000It's distributed back to banks in Canada in complex ways.
00:40:54.000It's distributed back to Chinese fentanyl precursor factories in Wuhan.
00:41:00.000And that, you know, triggers that flow into America again.
00:41:04.000So what I want to stress to your viewers, Laura, is that, look, The Latin countries are being used because obviously the corruption there is very known, right?
00:41:15.000That is, you know, being used as a node to essentially, with fentanyl and immigration, attack America.
00:41:23.000But people don't quite understand that the northern border, Canada, is like a more sophisticated financial, you could call it, weapon.
00:41:33.000against America, and this has been happening for decades.
00:41:36.000So I'll just give you two data points to let people know this is my reporting, but it's proven.
00:41:41.000Look, a U.S. congressional report in December said the Mexican cartels should be, of course, sanctioned, but don't forget that the Chinese triads need to be named hand in glove as a partner.
00:41:55.000Also, the Biden Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with the Canadian mayor in 2023 and confirmed these facts.
00:42:02.000The American government believes China is leveraging fentanyl to kill Americans and cause chaos.
00:42:09.000And the American government knows that the Latin cartels, the Chinese Communist Party, and these Chinese triads are all working together with the, you know, shared objectives.
00:42:19.000Everyone's getting something in that evil alliance.
00:42:22.000So that brings me to my next question.
00:42:24.000Do you think that the Trump administration is going too easy on China?
00:42:27.000Because look, I mean, when President Trump first ran for president, and we saw even during his first term, it was a lot of tough talk about China, China, China, China, China.
00:42:37.000Yet when you look at the breakdown of these tariffs, you have 25% tariffs for Mexico and 25% tariffs for Canada, but only 10% tariffs for China.
00:42:47.000And so, do you think that the Chinese are getting a deal here, getting a break?
00:42:52.000Do you think that the Trump administration is being too Um, is being too soft on China?
00:42:59.000Do you think that, uh, it's time to increase the percentage of tariffs on China, uh, to hold them accountable?
00:43:05.000Because it doesn't really seem like the Chinese have been held accountable for anything, right?
00:43:09.000They haven't been held accountable for murdering 1.2 million United States citizens with a bioweapon that they unleashed on our country and the entire world.
00:43:18.000They haven't been held accountable for, you know, poisoning Americans, hundreds of thousands of Americans every single year who die from fentanyl poisoning, not including all the people around the world who are also, you know, falling victim and dying at the hands of CCP finance and exported fentanyl that is coming from their CCP finance labs.
00:43:40.000And also when you look at all of the hundreds of millions of dollars that they rip off from American companies every single year.
00:43:47.000as it relates to knockoff products and these shady imports in places like California, where reports from the United States government show that hundreds of millions of dollars are being robbed from American companies as a result of these shady Chinese practices.
00:44:09.000So would you like to see more aggression from the Trump administration as it relates to economic pressure on China?
00:44:17.000because a lot of people, That I have conversations with.
00:44:21.000Seem to think that the Trump administration is going too easy on China, right?
00:44:25.000That there's not enough punitive damages being exercised against the CCP, and that the relationship is a little too light-hearted.
00:44:34.000I mean, we see that President Trump even invited Xi Jinping to the inauguration, and of course, he declined to attend the inauguration, but he did send a representative from the CCP, and this shocked a lot of people.
00:44:47.000A lot of people were wondering, you know, why we Allowed a representative from the CCP to attend the inauguration of President Donald Trump.
00:45:00.000Well, yeah, my thoughts are you nailed it by naming, you know, these fake knockoff goods.
00:45:06.000The thing is, this is incredibly complex statecraft on the part of the American administration.
00:45:12.000And by the way, it's been going on for 10 years now.
00:45:14.000America knows that the supply chains of China are being used against America in complex ways.
00:45:21.000So when you talk about those knockoffs, and you know, underground, you know, probably illegal labor factory in, you know, California, other states, these knockoffs are part of China's international trade, and they are used to launder fentanyl proceeds around the world.
00:45:38.000As a quick example, you know, the knockoffs could be sent From California into Mexico to pay for another load of fentanyl coming in.
00:45:50.000Yeah, and it's no coincidence that most of these knockoffs, according to reports that have been released by not just members of United States Congress, but also by Border Patrol themselves, that is where most of the Chinese illegal aliens are coming in.
00:46:03.000They're coming in through the border with California and Mexico, and they're also bringing in majority of these illegal goods into the ports in California.
00:46:12.000They're also coming in through New York as well.
00:46:15.000And then, of course, A lot of the illegal alien activity comes in through the border with Canada, of course.
00:47:07.000Look, what Americans, the thing they should take away from this conversation is America is surrounded and Canada is part of that surrounding.
00:47:15.000China has been sending in, you know, massive amounts of operations into Canada for about 40 years now.
00:47:23.000And as I've said, look, the Canadian banks and real estate are part of the leverage of Chinese illicit financial activity and corruptive activity.
00:47:31.000And at the end of the day, that's aimed at the United States.
00:47:34.000Laura, as you know, we're getting sort of closer to war surrounding Taiwan involving Beijing.
00:48:02.000Yes, the human trafficking is connected to the fentanyl trafficking, is connected to the corruption, is connected to those illegal trade goods you're talking about.
00:48:11.000But yes, Canada, to the northern border, there's a deep concern in Washington, and it's not just President Trump, that Canada is a vulnerability that will be used against Americans.
00:48:25.000Those tariffs, again, for Canadians, they're unfair, but they're pointing to, I believe, sort of a A deeper war strategy that the United States is getting ready to, unfortunately, you know, possibly have to go kinetic with China.
00:48:39.000And I'll end, you know, by saying this.
00:48:41.000Look, when we're talking about the Sinaloa cartel, at the end of the day, it should be Chinese organized crime and Chinese communist officials that are able to direct because they can finance and move the money around the world.
00:48:58.000People should not just be looking at It's interesting that you bring that up because when
00:49:28.000I was in Panama, The first thing that you see when you arrive in Panama is a giant sign that says Bank of China.
00:49:35.000And I like vacationing in Belize, actually.
00:49:37.000It's one of my favorite places to visit.
00:49:40.000And so when I go to Central or South America, and I noticed this when I was in Belize last time, there are so many little like supermarkets, like random pop-up stores that have Chinese lettering.
00:49:51.000And it's like, why is there just these random Chinese stores?
00:49:54.000And it goes to what you're talking about, how they have these stores that get popped up, whether they're massage parlors or they're little grocery stores.
00:50:01.000And I'm not saying that all of them are being used for, you know, laundering drugs or laundering money.
00:50:07.000But when you go to Central or South America and even the Caribbean, I was in a Grenada a few months ago, too, the same thing.
00:50:15.000There's just a lot of Chinese activity and a lot of these islands in the Caribbean, the West Indies and Central and South America, and it's a little bizarre when you're there and everybody's speaking Spanish and then all of a sudden you just see these huge Chinese communities within these not exactly like A populated area, either. These are rural areas.
00:50:40.000Within about the past 10 years, China has essentially, through these, you know, diaspora community economies, which are all connected to underground cash, drug cash being moved around the world.
00:50:55.000I'm not accusing all the shop owners and, you know, all the pedicurists, etc., of being on the take.
00:51:02.000What I'm saying is, China sends in agents and organized crime to infiltrate those communities and use their businesses to move this drug cash around.
00:51:22.000Very obviously, people need to shift their mindset and see that this is what is confronting the United States.
00:51:29.000And, you know, like him or hate him, And there's, again, as a Canadian, there's a lot of fear and there's a lot of, you know, feeling of disrespect with some of the language that President Trump is using towards Canada.
00:51:42.000But he is using language against, you know, people that quite possibly in Canadian government have been captured by these Chinese infiltration networks.
00:51:52.000So people need to understand that there are big shifts going around the world.
00:51:56.000And China at the end of the day is the enemy, not the Chinese people, the Chinese Communist Party.
00:52:02.000Well, and your sub stack, which I encourage everybody to read.
00:52:06.000You recently published this the sub stack article, Canadian banks tied to Chinese fentanyl laundering risk U.S.
00:52:11.000Treasury sanctions after cartel terror designation.
00:52:14.000This is crazy because, you know, President Trump has designated these cartels and All of these, you know, Mexican drug cartels, South American cartels, and South American gangs as terrorist organizations.
00:52:26.000And so, if you don't mind naming some of these banks, because you may actually find that if you're watching this program tonight, you yourself bank with some of these banking institutions.
00:52:37.000What are some of the banks that you know of that are involved in financing Financing the the drug cartel operation via CCP money laundering and additionally, how could the Treasury or the DOG escalate pressure on these banks that are facilitating cartel finance?
00:52:56.000Do you think that we will come to see a time where these Chinese triad leaders and also the executives of these banks are perhaps designated under under US terrorism laws as terrorists themselves?
00:53:11.000If they don't start to take the financing seriously.
00:53:14.000I believe that's the discussion Washington right now.
00:53:18.000I broke stories based on information from Dr. David Asher.
00:53:22.000He's a former top Trump 1.0 admin investigator with the State Department.
00:53:28.000And he informed me that the Toronto Dominion Bank, United States branch, As everyone knows is subject of a $3.1 billion fine.
00:54:01.000And Dr. Asher told me that Look, the DEA, the DOJ knows that, as the Americans call it, command and control of the Chinese triads using Canadian banks is set up in Toronto.
00:54:16.000So this American investigation, mostly in the tri-state area, they caught these Chinese gangsters carrying, literally carrying, basically suitcase-level Packs of cash into bank branches and they were all these American gangsters were calling up to Toronto pretty much every day.
00:54:35.000This indicated that the gangsters with Chinese communist ties in Toronto and Vancouver, you know, where the fentanyl precursors come in, are directing that drug trade.
00:54:46.000And indeed, it's not just the Chinese gangsters that the U.S. government and Trump administration is concerned with.
00:54:52.000They are looking at these Canadian Financial institution leaders and executives and saying, look, why isn't the Canadian government cracking down?
00:55:02.000And by the way, Laura, Prime Minister Mark Carney, a former Bank of Canada governor, you know, with friends or rather associates that are heads of these Canadian banks, I do believe in the U.S. Treasury, you know, that is raising some questions.
00:55:18.000So do you think that these Chinese triad leaders should be designated as transnational terrorist organizations?
00:55:25.000Like, do you think that it's time for the Trump administration?
00:55:28.000And perhaps this would deteriorate our relationship with China, but do you think it's time for the Trump administration to designate the CCP as a terrorist organization?
00:56:06.000The Chinese Communist Party sending in the precursors, using the Mexican cartels.
00:56:11.000So indeed, Dr. David Asher says, look, The facts are that the Chinese triads, with connections to Beijing's Communist Party, are financing, are moving the money.
00:56:23.000Those loads of fentanyl pills don't come in unless the Chinese triads set up the money laundering.
00:56:29.000So, of course, they should be designated as abettors or facilitators of terror organizations.
00:56:38.000And that means, here's the key, Laura, Americans will not be able to understand this, but basically Canada has such restrictive laws that it can't even investigate these brutal, murderous cartels set up in Canada.
00:56:52.000We can't even set up wiretaps on Sinaloa bosses because our sort of laws that favor civil liberties and defense bar that.
00:57:02.000And that has been a big frustration for the American administration.
00:57:06.000So look, by designating the cartels, Saying that the Chinese triads are actually above them in a way.
00:57:13.000Yeah, you can go after those Chinese triad bosses who, by the way, Laura, I'm afraid, I'm not afraid, I'll tell you, have connections to Chinese, sorry, have connections to Canadian political leaders.
00:57:25.000That's part of the election interference story.
00:57:28.000So what Dr. David Asher is saying, you designate these Chinese triad bosses as connected to terror organizations, Canadian politicians aren't going to be feeling free to meet some of these organized crime bosses at fundraisers anymore.
00:57:42.000And you can take down the Chinese infiltration networks that have deeply, deeply, deeply embedded in Canada for the past 40 years.
00:57:52.000Well, and when I was reading your article, What really struck me, too, is how, you know, here in the United States, when you think of drug lords, you think of people like El Chapo, right?
00:58:01.000Like, oh, yeah, the most dangerous drug lords in the world are people like El Chapo.
00:58:05.000And you think of these gangsters from Mexico or Colombia or these, you know, South American drug lords who are tattooed all over their body.
00:58:14.000But you actually identified that through your conversation with Mr. Asher, that one of the world's most wanted drug lords is a Chinese individual by the name of And who knows if I'm pronouncing his name right.
00:58:26.000Chi Chi La, who was living in Toronto.
00:58:28.000And so he was living in Toronto carrying out his operations.
00:58:32.000And you think to yourself, like if you were to ask the average person, where do you think the most wanted drug lord in the world would come from?
00:58:39.000They would probably tell you Mexico or Colombia, maybe Venezuela or maybe El Salvador.
00:58:45.000You're not thinking that that individual is going to be of Chinese origin, but it is.
00:58:51.000And they were living in Toronto, right?
00:58:53.000Right across the border from the United States.
00:58:55.000I mean, it's not that far to get from Toronto to the United States of America.
00:59:40.000The idea of killing your enemy without firing a bullet.
00:59:43.000Absolutely! That is a very Maoist concept and so what people need to understand is that the Maoist concept behind the the communist I mean look communism has been very brutal obviously it's resulted in the death of over a hundred million people worldwide right so I'm not saying that communists are not brutal and that communists don't actually commit real violence right with weapons but the idea behind Maoist global domination is killing your enemy and conquering your enemy without firing I
01:00:13.000single bullet or having to use physical violence.
01:00:16.000And so I think that this is a very important concept for people to understand when they When they're talking about the enemy of the CCP and Chinese infiltration, because people will say, oh, well, how dangerous could it really be?
01:00:31.000And this is why there's this global misconception about how the Mexican cartels are more violent or that they're more dangerous than the Chinese communist spy operatives or money launderers who are here in the United States of America or who are embedded all over Western governments around the world.
01:00:51.000They're actually more dangerous because they're the ones who are calling the shots and providing to the financing, the financing and the operational infrastructure for the violent criminals that are, you know, murdering people point-blank and running into supermarkets with, you know, AK-47s or AR-15s and, you know, blowing up hundreds of people.
01:01:13.000Like, let me just paint the picture of Say Chai Lop.
01:01:15.000If people saw this guy, he would look like a bank branch manager Or someone, you know, that is in his younger years across the counter as a bank teller.
01:01:27.000His organization is called The Company.
01:01:30.000This is a network of all these international communist connected triads.
01:01:35.000And, you know, he was again set up in Toronto.
01:01:39.000So the biggest Chinese gang boss in the world living in a Canadian city, connecting, as I know, Canadian police saw his organization meeting with senior Canadian politicians, which is a concern.
01:01:54.000This guy gambled something like $70 million.
01:01:56.000He lost $70 million, something like that, one night in a Macau casino.
01:02:02.000Casinos are very important to the money laundering operations.
01:02:05.000His organization, again, Dr. David Asher said, CHILOP is running Western Hemisphere money laundering.
01:02:51.000Actually, I broke this story in my book, Willful Blindness.
01:02:54.000We can find, again, it's interesting because these individuals look like bankers.
01:03:00.000They're often found meeting with top Canadian politicians, including our Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau.
01:03:06.000Yeah, they're like, they're like the jihadis in suits, right?
01:03:10.000These, these jihadist Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas officials who are operating 501C3 Islamic charities here in America, and they get invited into the White House by Joe Biden, or they get invited to speak.
01:03:22.000I mean, for crying out loud, one of them was even invited to give the invocation at the inauguration of President Trump until I exposed it.
01:03:29.000And he was promptly removed from the program.
01:03:31.000Right. But just like you have jihadis in suits here in America and also in Canada, where where Islamification has also become a massive problem.
01:03:41.000I think that you even had a case of an Islamic terrorist not too long ago who had enough fentanyl, if I'm not mistaken, to poison the entire country of Canada.
01:03:51.000I believe there was a story several years ago of an Islamic individual.
01:04:14.000I'll have to look this up, but I do remember a story out of Canada like that several years ago.
01:04:19.000I vaguely remember that, but I can tell you that absolutely, in that same Toronto area, We know, because I've reported, that there are top Iranian Hezbollah-linked operatives.
01:04:34.000And we learned, because a top Canadian intelligence official was compromised by them, that these people were laundering.
01:04:41.000I know one that the Americans investigated very deeply in Toronto, laundering billions of dollars through big Canadian banks.
01:04:49.000This is connected to the Iranian regime.
01:04:52.000And Laura, You know, my work has shown that Hezbollah has connections to the Mexican cartels, and the money laundering networks connect to China.
01:05:01.000And let me just bring it back there, speaking about Justin Trudeau meeting known Western Hemisphere boss gangsters.
01:05:09.000Yes, my work showed that he was, that is, Justin Trudeau, the former Prime Minister, was captured in RCMP surveillance in Vancouver, while the RCMP Canadian police doing the biggest ever International money laundering investigation, they found Mr. Trudeau in a private hotel room with a top gang boss named Paul King Jin and another, you know, very senior figure from the Chinese military.
01:05:38.000And so my sources said in a story, it raises deep concerns that Mr. Trudeau is meeting with billion-dollar level organized crime suspects No one, as my source said, is accusing Mr. Trudeau of being on the take or corrupt, but we would be naive to think that billion-dollar Chinese gangsters with connections to Beijing aren't trying to secure some kind of influence.
01:06:04.000You know, what kind of influence could they be trying to secure?
01:06:07.000I'm not exactly sure, but could it relate to donation meetings?
01:06:12.000It sure pops in my mind that we just had a Chinese-Canadian politician from Justin Trudeau's party step down at midnight last night for allegedly counseling, you know, his political rival to be delivered to a Chinese consulate for a bounty.
01:06:28.000It's almost like a dream here in Canada, but again, let me bring it back to an extent.
01:06:33.000I do think this is what the Trump administration is concerned with, and perhaps even why President Trump Yeah, and another thing that I found interesting from your reporting about this individual who met with Justin Trudeau is that he was deported from Panama for using a false ID.
01:06:58.000And as I said, when I was in Panama, when I was in the Darien Gap, I noticed that the first thing you see when you get to Panama, which is also being controlled by China now, which is why President Trump wants to take back control of the Panama Canal, because the Chinese have basically taken over the Panama Canal. The first thing you see is a giant sign that says Bank of China.
01:07:18.000And when I was visiting all the different migrant camps, they actually have their own entire Chinese migrant camp called San Vicente, where they have WeChat centers and they have these pop up.
01:07:47.000Uh, but it's interesting that he was deported from Panama because it shows you that this, this drug kingpin who was living in Toronto, who is one of the most wanted, um, you know, I guess you're saying drug traffickers financed by the CCP, who's meeting with Justin Trudeau.
01:08:05.000Shockingly, right, they are traveling back and forth to Central and Latin America, South America, which should be a dead giveaway that the Chinese are are the main financiers of the illicit, not just, I would say, illegal alien human trafficking operation.
01:08:26.000That is, you know, headed into the United States of America, but also the drug trafficking.
01:08:30.000And this goes to what you said about the massage parlors.
01:08:33.000I think it's really weird how you see all these...
01:08:37.000And again, I'm not accusing every single one of these people of being involved in drug trades or human trafficking, but I have always wondered how these pop-up massage parlors that seem to get no activity whatsoever, you see like one person go in there all day long and they have 10 people inside waiting to work.
01:08:56.000It's like, okay, how do you guys pay your bills?
01:09:01.000And it's something that always pops up in the back of my mind.
01:09:05.000It's like how do these massage parlors stay in business?
01:09:07.000They get like one client a day sometimes.
01:09:10.000And you have like 50 of them on a street corner.
01:09:13.000A person with sharp eyes can see that, and it's amazing when you step back a few years later, you read intelligence reports, and I'm speaking on myself now, and yeah, there is, it's absolutely strategic that diaspora communities pop up,
01:09:28.000and again, most people there probably, you know, running away from the thuggish regime, but the pop-up of these businesses is related to China implanting economies around the world, and use it, weaponizing them, Again, against democracies.
01:09:44.000And you know, let me just say, this gangster that was meeting with Justin Trudeau, yeah, he's from Vancouver.
01:09:50.000I've tracked him, you know, in flights to Mexico.
01:10:09.000Of course, very important, you know, Marco Rubio focusing on how Chinese businessmen are so deeply invested in Panama now.
01:10:17.000But yeah, this gangster that Justin Trudeau kicked out.
01:10:20.000It's funny because I was speaking with Marco Rubio about this.
01:10:23.000And when I when I did my reporting on this and, you know, President Trump, of course, utilized my reporting in his his decision when it came to the selection of his his ambassador to Panama, who is still awaiting his his confirmation hearing, Kevin Cabrera. And he, you know.
01:10:43.000President Trump actually called me when I returned from the Darien Gap and I had said, you know, when you when you win the election, what you should do is you should take back the Panama Canal.
01:10:53.000And I'm not saying that I'm the only person who who recommended this idea to President Trump, but I do know that my reporting was essential in President Trump's conversations with Marco Rubio as it related to cracking down on the CCP influence within Panama, the Panama Canal and also having discussions to shut down the Darien Gap.
01:11:13.000You have to shut down the Darien Gap if you want to gain control over the Chinese human trafficking and drug trade operation that is,
01:12:11.000The triads being designated or held accountable and charged for terrorist activity.
01:12:17.000But do you think that we will actually see the day when the Trump administration or the United States government just finally designates the CCP as a whole?
01:12:26.000I'm not talking about like individual drug kingpins or individuals who are involved in, you know, the the fentanyl financing or Uh, human trafficking or fentanyl transportation.
01:12:39.000Do you think that it will officially be the policy of the United States of America that the CCP itself, which would then mean that we would have to, you know, re, uh, you know, finagle or renegotiate how we do business with China, especially given the fact that so much of our manufacturing is taking place in China.
01:13:00.000Do you think we'll ever see the day where the CCP is designated as a terrorist organization?
01:13:07.000Well, I really do think at the end of the day, that's the only solution because let me step back.
01:13:12.000We're talking about how, you know, communities of humans, people, good people around the world are being thuggishly controlled and weaponized against other states.
01:13:23.000And by the way, China in a very racist way says, even if you're, you know, an immigrant in another country, you should be loyal to the Chinese, you know, They call him the Yellow Emperor in their racist language.
01:13:54.000Her father, who is now dead, Alex Wong's father-in-law, was the One of the managing directors of AsiaSat and the fourth largest shareholder in AsiaSat, which is the premier satellite provider for China, which does work with the CCP and the People's Liberation Army in China.
01:14:15.000And so our national, Deputy National Security Advisor, who works underneath Michael Waltz, who was appointed by President Donald Trump, who also serves as an assistant to the President of the United States, is a Chinese individual.
01:14:30.000By the name of Alex Wong, and his wife is also Chinese.
01:14:32.000I'm not saying all Chinese people are loyal to the CCP, but a lot of people don't really understand that you could have somebody who looks like a banker, they look like they're, you know, loyal to the country that they're living in, they could pretend that they are, you know, completely unaffiliated with the CCP,
01:14:49.000but they are highly conditioned and highly trained to have a loyalty, whether or not they lie to your face and tell you that they hate Xi Jinping, that they hate the CCP, to have this loyal to the emperor, as you said.
01:15:05.000It's a Maoist tactic, and there's a lot that goes into...
01:15:09.000You know training these individuals to infiltrate governments at the highest level and you would think that somebody is completely anti-ccp and that their loyalty is to the government that they're residing in but they could be operating as a spy or an operative for the ccp and some people will say oh you know it's so racist you can't say that you can't say that these people have due loyalty or singular loyalty to the ccp but it is something that happens more often than not it's often buried in intelligence reports they don't We just had
01:15:39.000a case a couple days ago that I tweeted about where a professor who was receiving millions of dollars in funding and had all these top-secret clearances to work on all these top-secret projects with the United States government was just found to be an operative for the CCP, even though he had publicly said that he didn't have an allegiance to the CCP.
01:16:40.000Yes, that congressional report I talked about in December suggests United Front Community Associations should be designated and banned in the United States.
01:17:49.000The case out of New York City was the CCP police stations that people are now growing outraged over because the CCP in Chinatown and a lot of these very Chinese heavy areas in New York City, they have their own police stations where they're turning people in to the CCP.
01:18:06.000And so the case that I was talking about was FBI and Homeland Security agents searched the house We're good to
01:18:37.000go. Confidential computing, a project funded by the National Science Foundation.
01:18:41.000He received over 23 million dollars in grant money from the United States government.
01:19:13.000It's a total, as Pompeo said, the enemy is inside our gates and the CCP needs to be designated again.
01:19:21.000So, like, humans cannot be leveraged by the, you know, Beijing trying to undermine and take over the United States, essentially at the end of the day.
01:19:30.000And as I say, Canada, unfortunately, being weaponized at this point through that infiltration.
01:19:37.000So, in closing, what does this mean For the future of Canada and what does this mean for the future of the United States of America and how important are these issues and how important is the topic of CCP election interference and CCP infiltration of Canada's financial markets to the upcoming April 28th elections in In Canada,
01:20:01.000we see that tomorrow is going to be Liberation Day, as President Trump calls it, as it relates to the implementation of the auto tariffs on Canada.
01:20:12.000But how important is this topic of CCP infiltration to the overall issues of electing a new Prime Minister on April 28th?
01:20:24.000You know, Canadian intelligence reports said that over the past 10 years, Justin Trudeau's government needed to pay attention to China's deep interference that's been leveraged up under Xi Jinping with his magic weapon, the United Front.
01:20:38.000If Canada didn't respond, we face a sovereignty concern.
01:20:43.000We face existential, you know, the concerns about the future of our government, of our democracy.
01:20:51.000And the thing is that Justin Trudeau didn't act.
01:20:54.000That's the core of the stories that I broke Perhaps, you know, that had some part in Mr. Trudeau having to step down.
01:21:01.000So the question here is, is Mark Carney the right person to replace him and take action, any action against Beijing?
01:21:12.000Mr. Carney was supportive of this liberal MP and candidate.
01:21:16.000who suggested delivering a Canadian to the Chinese consulate.
01:21:21.000Mr. Carney, through running a major investment fund, Brookfield, took a $300 million loan from the Bank of China, had major investments within China, $3 billion in commercial real estate, I reported.
01:21:37.000So to me, it looks like Mr. Carney, through his international banking connections, his His deep trade ties to China, his relationship directly with Xi Jinping, is not the right leader for Canada coming up.
01:21:51.000The Conservative opposition is much more ready, I believe, to enact sort of the legal reforms that would be able to go after the cartels and the triads, would actually be able to stop fentanyl from killing, not at least start to get those death numbers down.
01:22:09.000In Canada, And hopefully the United States as a result of that.
01:22:19.000I think you would probably agree, Laura, we only see the tip of the iceberg in terms of China's infiltration into American politics.
01:22:28.000And my reporting hopefully increasingly will help, you know, focus on the United States and how China's United Front has just insidiously filtered into American politics.
01:22:39.000So what can Americans do and what can President Trump do in these next three weeks before your election to make sure that the interim Prime Minister Mark Carney does not hold another term?
01:22:53.000Well, I mean, we need to be careful that we're not suggesting that President Trump or Americans interfere in Canada.
01:23:01.000Just as we wouldn't want China in their fear at the same time, interfering, but raising awareness about this because people do have a lot of friends and they have family members who live in Canada.
01:23:11.000And it's not election interference to raise awareness about the CCP financing and the fentanyl operation that is killing people, not just in Canada, but also here in the United States.
01:23:22.000So I wouldn't necessarily say that it's unfounded election interference from a foreign nation.
01:23:28.000It really is our foreign policy and it's going to be pivotal to how we have ongoing relations with Canada, because if they continue to stand by, let's just say that Mark Carney does win.
01:23:40.000If they continue to stand by and allow for the CCP to infiltrate our country and to infiltrate the finance institutions and keep poisoning Americans and Canadians, well, that's going to have a serious national security impact here in the United States of America.
01:23:55.000and it could lead to, you know, So it's in their best interest to take this information and to educate their peers and make a better decision come April 28th if they don't want to be punished by these tariffs.
01:24:13.000So if I was speaking directly to President Trump, I would say, President Trump, we know, or some Canadians know, you had a bad relationship with Justin Trudeau because Justin Trudeau was untrustworthy.
01:24:24.000Justin Trudeau and his party were infiltrated by the Chinese communists.
01:24:29.000Everyone in Canadian intelligence knows this, so I would say President Trump, tell Canadians you deeply respect Canada as a partner, a strong ally in the World War II, a strong ally after 9-11.
01:24:42.000We want Canada as one of the strongest democratic nations, a superpower to stand beside America.
01:25:23.000You hope Canada will strengthen its military and stand with its true brother, sister, cousin, ally, the United States.
01:25:32.000That's what we need to hear in Canada.
01:25:35.000Absolutely, because I bet that President Trump, just like he wants to have a America First policy here, I'm sure that he also wants to see Canada be Canada First.
01:26:00.000I want to stay Canadian and I want to be best friends with the United States.
01:26:04.000That's what I'd say to President Trump right now.
01:26:07.000Absolutely. Well, Sam, congratulations on all of your reporting successes and shaking up the Canadian elections with your intrepid investigations.
01:26:17.000I know that you're the founder of the Bureau, which is on Substack.
01:26:21.000Where do people go to read your work, support your work, and follow you on social media so that they can follow the CCP infiltration and the heated discussions around the upcoming Canadian elections?
01:26:34.000Yeah, so I am the founder of The Bureau.News, and I'll just give the plug for my book, Willful Blindness.
01:26:41.000Look, this is the book that's being read by the CIA, it's being read by US Treasury, it's being read in Taiwan.
01:27:19.000Absolutely. We'll work on that within the day.
01:27:23.000Awesome. Well, I'm looking forward to reading your book because I find this to be, you know, incredibly fascinating.
01:27:28.000And I think that more people really need to You know, shift their focus as it relates to what the real threat is.
01:27:35.000Because there's, in my opinion, a very surface level understanding of the threats as it relates to the border crisis, the drug crisis, and the trade crisis that our country is experiencing.
01:27:47.000So Sam, thank you so much for joining me.
01:27:59.000Wonderful. Well, Just absolutely shocking what's happening over there in Canada and how it's impacting us here in the United States of America.

01:30:35.000It boosts overall immunity and it's a nice, refreshing, low-calorie and low-sugar drink that will help you get through your day.
01:30:53.000The deportations are continuing under the Trump administration.
01:30:57.000We just got done speaking with Sam Cooper, who was explaining the financing of the fentanyl crisis and also the illegal alien activity here in the United States of America.
01:31:08.000A lot of people tend to forget that the CCP is behind a lot of this, but The Trump administration is continuing to deport these transnational gang members and transnational designated terrorists that have since been designated as terrorists under the new Trump administration.
01:31:25.000So let's go ahead and play some of these videos from the president of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, who is expected to meet with President Trump this month at the White House, announcing the imprisonment of MS-13 gangbangers and the famous El Salvadorian Lockdown prison known as CCOT.
01:31:46.000*Painless music* *Painless music* We will see
01:32:49.000I don't know about you, but I love those videos.
01:32:51.000I love the videos that they have when they take these gangbangers off the plane in El Salvador and transport them to this lockdown facility in El Salvador.
01:33:23.000He said, last night in a joint military operation with our allies from the United States, we transferred 17 extremely dangerous criminals linked to train to Aragua and MS-13.
01:33:33.000All individuals are now confirmed murderers and high-profile offenders, including six child rapists.
01:33:39.000Horrible. This operation is another step in the fight against terrorism, And organized crime.
01:33:44.000And this is what the Democrats are trying to oppose.
01:33:47.000Judge Boasberg, who we have exposed extensively here on Loomer Unleashed, is trying to prevent the deportation and the imprisonment of these dangerous individuals, including child rapists.
01:33:59.000So you have to ask yourself, how depraved, really, how depraved is Judge Boasberg?
01:34:04.000How depraved is the Democrat Party in that they are continuing to obstruct the Trump administration's efforts to lock up these dangerous Criminal, illegal, alien gangbangers who are also now designated terrorists and child rapists.
01:34:20.000Just goes to show you the Democrats will never lose a moment to be on the losing side of an issue.
01:34:29.000Friend of the show, Savannah Hernandez, who is an independent reporter, filmed a video recently outside of the Roosevelt Hotel, which is one of the most notorious locations in the United States, located in New York City, where the Biden administration gave millions of dollars of taxpayer money to give Free hotel rooms, luxury hotel rooms to criminal illegal aliens.
01:34:53.000We know that Lake and Riley's killer, Jose Ibarra, actually was transported in the Roosevelt Hotel in New York City.
01:35:02.000And so some of the most dangerous criminal illegal aliens and trained Aragua gang members in our country actually were transported through the Roosevelt Hotel.
01:35:12.000So we're hoping that with the leadership of President Trump and the leadership of Kirsten Here's Dean Noem, excuse me, and Tom Homan that we can shut down a lot of these criminal illegal alien facilities that are operating out of these hotels in places like New York City.
01:35:27.000Let's go ahead and play this clip, this report on the ground in front of the Roosevelt Hotel from Savannah Hernandez.
01:35:33.000We do this stuff like this, like, at all the shelters and stuff.
01:35:36.000But, like, our company, this is why we try to help people by, you know, providing them with refunds, you know.
01:35:41.000This is Savannah Hernandez in front of the Roosevelt Hotel in New York City.
01:35:44.000Now, we wanted to come check in on the migrant crisis, and as we were walking around, we saw a Jackson Hewitt table out here with an employee who was handing out this flyer.
01:35:54.000Now, what this flyer says is, working or not, file your taxes and we can get the maximum refund for your family.
01:36:00.000And the paper says that if you have one child, We do this stuff like this at all the shelters and stuff.
01:36:25.000but like our company this is why we try to help people by you know providing them with refunds you know so you guys are Trying to help the migrants with their taxes then, to help them get refunds, help them get some money back from the government.
01:36:57.000So, just wanted to give you guys an idea of, again, what migrants have been told in New York City now that tax season is coming up.
01:37:03.000They are being given official flyers from Jackson Hewitt themselves on how to file their taxes.
01:37:09.000You know, we have the Trump administration that is currently in office, and they have been promising mass deportations.
01:37:13.000But in sanctuary cities like New York, where you've had over 200,000 illegal immigrants make their way to this area, the crisis is very much alive and well.
01:37:22.000Now, this shelter behind me is actually set to close in June, but you have another shelter that was just opened up in the Bronx with 2,200 beds specifically for single migrant men.
01:37:33.000So the crisis is very much alive here in New York City that has already spent $7 billion on migrants over the last couple of years.
01:37:40.000Wanted to give you guys an update as of March 2025 where we're currently at with it.
01:37:57.000We have taxes coming up here, April 15th, tax day.
01:38:01.000The fact that illegal aliens are being solicited to help them get tax breaks, it's unbelievable.
01:38:07.000Just Phenomenal reporting by Savannah Hernandez.
01:38:10.000And it goes to show you that even under the current Trump administration, President Trump and Tom Holman have their hands full.
01:38:16.000There's such a rot in our country right now as it relates to the invasion of our nation, and there's so many people who are facilitating the continued invasion of our nation, supporting these criminal illegal aliens.
01:38:29.000They should just have ICE buses parked outside of the Roosevelt Hotel there to round up all of these individuals and put them on deportation flights.
01:38:36.000So Even under the current Trump administration, we're still seeing illegal aliens.
01:38:42.000Not necessarily coming into our country because President Trump has done a great job reducing the flow of illegal aliens at the border, but there are still many of these illegals who came in underneath the Biden administration who are still receiving services.
01:38:55.000They're still being I don't To deporting the same number of illegal aliens who came in under the Biden regime.
01:39:22.000So really need to speed it up because that's not really the definition of mass deportations.
01:39:30.000It's great that illegal aliens are now starting to get rounded up and deported, but definitely needs to increase substantially.
01:39:39.000Also, We, several months ago, covered the Venezuelan migrant TikTok influencer, you'll recall, who was teaching people how to squat illegally.
01:39:48.000Remember when he was teaching people how they could break into the homes of American citizens and squat in their homes and make a living here in the United States of America?
01:40:09.000The Trump administration said adios to an illegal immigrant from Venezuela who garnered a massive online following by posting videos of himself flashing stacks of cash and urging migrants to scroll up.
01:40:43.000Joe Biden, of course, was president at the time and people were wondering how this guy was able to carry out his crimes and get away with it while being an illegal alien and openly posting on TikTok where he was monetizing his account.
01:42:51.000So it's really great to see that we actually have some competent communication now coming out of the White House.
01:42:58.000We have an actual rapid response Twitter account from Joe Biden.
01:43:01.000The White House itself updating Americans and engaging with Americans about stories that matter to the American people, including this outrageous story of an illegal alien TikToker who was teaching people on TikTok freely, another app that is influenced and financed by the CCP.
01:43:19.000Tied to the CCP, of course, teaching people how to break into homes to squat and to become residents here in America illegally as illegal aliens.
01:43:31.000So, pretty shocking that this was even able to happen freely on social media.
01:43:35.000It wasn't until there was a massive campaign on social media that TikTok actually ended up shutting down this individual's Social media accounts, and I remember that they were having an absolute meltdown when they got banned from TikTok because they were making thousands of dollars a month from monetized content, teaching illegal aliens how to commit crimes in our country.
01:43:55.000So thank you to Donald Trump for supporting this degenerate individual.
01:44:05.000So much to talk about, just so much to cover.
01:44:09.000There's not going to be Loomer Unleashed this Thursday because I have to travel to Los Angeles because I am engaged in lawfare with Bill Maher.
01:44:18.000Bill Maher, as you know, falsely accused me last year of Having sex with President Donald Trump, which is a complete lie.
01:44:25.000So, I'm going to be traveling to California, and before we get into that, I want to take a moment to thank the sponsor of tonight's episode of Lumer Unleashed, and that, of course, is Kirk Elliott Precious Metals.
01:45:24.000Because I called Kirk Elliott Precious Metals, and I learned how adding gold and silver to my portfolio is one of the safest ways to not just grow my finances, but to also protect them from the uncertainty of the future.
01:45:43.000Call Economist Kirk Elliott at 720-605-3900 or schedule a call online at KEPM.com slash Loomer to learn how you can safely grow your retirement portfolio with precious metals.
01:45:55.000Be sure that you head on over to KEPM.com KEPM.com slash Loomer.
01:46:01.000You can check out the landing page that they made for Loomer Unleashed viewers at Kirk Elliott Precious Metals.
01:46:23.000So as I was saying, there's not going to be Loomer Unleashed this Thursday because I have to travel to Los Angeles, California for a live video deposition with Bill Maher.
01:46:32.000As you know, Bill Maher is a tremendous Trump hater and he's also a big Laura Loomer hater.
01:46:39.000And after I traveled with President Trump to the presidential debate last year, Bill Maher falsely accused me of having sex with President Trump.
01:46:47.000He said that I was Fucking President Trump.
01:46:50.000Sorry to be vulgar, but those were his words.
01:46:52.000And his lies were then repeated all over the news.
01:46:55.000I mean, I'm sure that we can pull up all the different articles now and people can see for themselves.
01:47:00.000If you type in Bill Maher, Laura Loomer, just type in Bill Maher, Laura Loomer.
01:47:07.000Laura Loomer sues Bill Maher and HBO over real-time quip.
01:47:35.000And what's crazy is that Bill Maher has since been invited to the White House to meet with President Trump.
01:47:41.000Kid Rock, I guess, had this idea that he wanted to invite Bill Maher to the White House and then President Trump said it was Acceptable to bring Bill Maher to the White House, even though Trump himself issued a statement on True Social the other day saying that he doesn't really think it's a great idea, but he agreed to it anyway.
01:47:55.000So, pretty shocking that Bill Maher has been invited to the White House after falsely accusing me of having an affair with Donald Trump, falsely accusing the President of committing adultery on Melania Trump.
01:48:11.000But my attorney and I are going to be in Los Angeles for a live video deposition of Bill Maher and of course this is going to cost a lot of money.
01:48:19.000I have to travel to California where I have to stay for several days meeting with my attorney.
01:48:24.000It's going to cost money for a court reporter.
01:48:26.000It's going to cost money for a video deposition and so I created a GiveSendGo account.
01:48:32.000Let's go ahead and cut this GiveSendGo account up on the screen here.
01:48:35.000You can support my My legal fund and the costs associated with my litigation against Bill Maher because, look, I shouldn't have to go bankrupt and I shouldn't have to burden myself financially as a result of being attacked for simply doing the right thing.
01:49:37.000As you know, a couple weeks ago, I received a legal letter from the Soros Entities Hopewell Fund and the Project 1630 Fund threatening to sue me for my reporting on the Tesla takedown protest.
01:49:48.000And so, You know, I am involved in numerous acts of litigation right now because I am constantly under attack by the radical left, including under attack from Bill Maher.
01:50:00.000So again, please go to GibsonGo.com slash Loomer Lawfare and make any contribution you can afford.
01:50:07.000That is the reason why there will not be Loomer Unleashed this Thursday, because I will be traveling to Los Angeles, California on Thursday for my live video deposition with Bill Maher.
01:50:21.000But with that, I want to thank you all for tuning in to another episode of Loomer Unleashed.
