Transcript

00:01:16.000 I don't know.
00:01:49.000 We're good.
00:05:57.000 We're good to go.
00:06:33.000 We're good.
00:07:19.000 We're good.
00:12:08.000 Good evening and welcome to episode 18 of Loomer Unleashed.
00:12:11.000 I'm your host, Laura Loomer.
00:12:13.000 On Tuesday, as I went live, news broke that the Colorado Supreme Court ruled against Donald Trump and disqualified him from being on the ballot for the upcoming Republican primary.
00:12:23.000 Not only was this decision totally wrong, but it represents one of the worst cases of political bias and election interference in our nation's history.
00:12:31.000 The left and establishment right are terrified of a resurgent MAGA movement, one that has learned many lessons and has suffered seven years of political persecution.
00:12:40.000 And it has become increasingly clear that Trump will be the Republican nominee.
00:12:46.000 And as a result, the fear and agitation on the left has surged exponentially.
00:12:50.000 Recent polling data, which shows Trump handedly defeating Biden in nearly every swing state, has forced the Democrats to accept the reality that unless they find a way to cheat, they are going to get four more years of Donald Trump.
00:13:02.000 But this time, they will get Donald Trump with righteous indignation and a spirit of revenge and retribution.
00:13:08.000 And rightfully so, because these communists need to pay for what they have done.
00:13:12.000 We need to hold people accountable for treason, and preferably with the original punishment for treason.
00:13:18.000 This evidently
00:13:19.000 has sent alarms sounding across the Democrat Party, which has now gone all in on impending Trump from ever getting to the general election by removing his name from the ballots all across the nation.
00:13:30.000 In the example of the Colorado case, they are attempting to use a very niche clause in the 14th Amendment, which states that anyone who took part in an insurrection against the American government is disqualified from ever holding public office.
00:13:42.000 Obviously, that clause was intended for Confederate sympathizers, as it was added to the Constitution directly following the Civil War.
00:13:50.000 Either way, President Trump did not take part in any insurrection.
00:13:54.000 We all now know that January 6th was mostly an inside job precipitated by the FBI and CIA.
00:13:59.000 We also know that Trump told his supporters to be peaceful and to go home as January 6th was unfolding.
00:14:05.000 Branding him as some sort of a separatist or insurrectionist is totally beyond the pale, and any sensible person understands that.
00:14:13.000 But being sensible is not something we see frequently on the left anymore.
00:14:18.000 Their fear and determination to prevent another Trump presidency is leading them down increasingly insane paths.
00:14:25.000 First it was conjuring up fake stories of collusion.
00:14:28.000 Then it was fake sexual assault allegations.
00:14:31.000 Then it was election intimidation.
00:14:33.000 And now it is accusing him of leading insurrections.
00:14:38.000 With each instance of insanity, the political weaponization and banana republic tactics have only increased.
00:14:44.000 This kind of election interference and rigging of the political system against a specific individual goes beyond what many of the countries the United States often scolds for what we call anti-democratic elections would have attempted.
00:14:56.000 We have actually sanctioned other nations for doing far less during their elections to opposition candidates.
00:15:02.000 And so we can no longer pretend to be the moral authority or the global exporter of democracy.
00:15:08.000 This begs the question, has the United States become a third world nation?
00:15:12.000 The answer to that question is a resounding yes, and it is only going to get worse.
00:15:17.000 Politically, we have watched the ingrained bureaucracy in the swamp and establishment totally deny the American people their voice for seven years straight.
00:15:25.000 From the moment that Trump began his campaign,
00:15:28.000 The scum who compromised the political elite and the media did everything they could to discredit, distract, and destroy the MAGA movement.
00:15:35.000 Even when they had to grudgingly accept Trump's victory in 2016, they spent every waking moment of the next four years conniving cunning new ways to prevent him from implementing his America First agenda.
00:15:46.000 President Trump was given a huge mandate by 62 million voters to pursue America First policies, yet he was hardly able to do so because of the constant, incessant ankle-biting from the swamp.
00:15:57.000 Now those same swamp monsters are attempting to prevent you from ever casting a vote for Trump.
00:16:03.000 And with the decision in Colorado, other blue states like California are looking at attempting to remove Trump from their ballots as well.
00:16:10.000 This domino effect will continue unless the Supreme Court steps in or unless Republicans take a stand and push to remove Joe Biden from their ballots as well, which is sadly unlikely going to happen at the moment.
00:16:22.000 Again, this makes countries like Russia, which the United States regularly condemns for rigging elections and targeting dissidents, look like democratic paradises.
00:16:32.000 Everything which defined America as a place of effective transfer of power, universal suffrage, and free and fair elections has been totally eroded by the actions of the left.
00:16:40.000 And the GOP isn't doing a damn thing about it, further proving just how useless the Republicans have become, or maybe they've always been this useless.
00:16:52.000 Tragically, and sadly, the only way that America is devolving into a third world shithole, as President Trump would put it, is happening right before our eyes.
00:17:04.000 Immigration is rapidly altering the social fabric of this nation, eroding our cultural values and taxing our infrastructure in a variety of ways.
00:17:11.000 Under Joe Biden, the flood of immigrants swarming our southern border from hundreds of other countries has reached catastrophic levels.
00:17:18.000 Just the other day, a new record was set as nearly 13,000 immigrants attempted to enter into the United States in a 24-hour period.
00:17:26.000 That is 300,000 people in a single month.
00:17:31.000 That is the city of Pittsburgh showing up 12 times in a single year.
00:17:36.000 On Saturday at a rally in New Hampshire, Trump drew criticism for saying, quote, they're poisoning the blood of our country.
00:17:41.000 They're coming into our country from Africa and Asia and from all over the world, end quote.
00:17:47.000 He is totally right though.
00:17:48.000 You see, the vast majority of these illegal aliens do not share our values.
00:17:52.000 Do you think that they really care about democracy?
00:17:54.000 Do you think that these illegal aliens really give a damn about freedom of speech?
00:17:58.000 Do you think that they will go out of their way to stand up against government corruption?
00:18:03.000 And do you really think that these people who are having sex with goats in caves and people who use their hands to wipe their asses are ever going to truly assimilate into American culture?
00:18:12.000 The answer is obviously no.
00:18:14.000 And what's worse is that so many of these people are now coming from regions of the world with extremely low quality of life and dismal IQ scores.
00:18:21.000 You know, there is a reason why parts of Africa and the Middle East have struggled to build anything resembling Western society.
00:18:29.000 Most of the people who live in these regions in extreme poverty aren't exactly scholars and no amount of education or assistance will ever fix that.
00:18:36.000 They do not share our values and they never will.
00:18:39.000 The sheer volume of migrants entering the United States all but guarantees that they will never be assimilated into our culture.
00:18:46.000 They will remain fragmented, a disjointed populace living amongst us as they would have in Nigeria, Somalia or Honduras and Guatemala.
00:18:54.000 This can easily be seen in places like Minneapolis where the massive amount of Somali migrants and invaders have essentially carved out an enclave in that city.
00:19:03.000 These people even want Sharia law.
00:19:07.000 And this same unfettered immigration can be seen and felt in every aspect of life, particularly in the cities America used to be a high-trust society where you could casually stroll down the streets with your family.
00:19:19.000 But now it's a place where your kids cannot walk to school without worrying about being kidnapped.
00:19:25.000 It's a place no longer where you knew your neighbors and had a stake in your community.
00:19:30.000 That place now seems as far away as Fantasy World in a children's novel.
00:19:35.000 This is the story of America now.
00:19:37.000 It is a crumbling, decaying ruin that is being flooded with hordes of foreign people who care little for it.
00:19:43.000 They do not remember what it once was, nor what it is supposed to represent.
00:19:48.000 Good American patriots have been silenced, neutered, and distracted while this has occurred.
00:19:52.000 And the left is taking full advantage of that by continuing their persecution of Donald Trump and his supporters by weaponizing our Justice Department and our law enforcement agencies.
00:20:01.000 As President Trump often says on the campaign trail,
00:20:04.000 We are a failing nation, and we are a nation in decline.
00:20:08.000 And if this is allowed to continue, and if the Democrats are allowed to rig the 2024 presidential election, then it is not an exaggeration to say that America is over.
00:20:18.000 There is a young female journalist, conservative journalist, by the name of Laura Loomer.
00:20:27.000 If America's men acted like Laura Loomer,
00:20:31.000 Our problems will be fixed in about five minutes.
00:20:34.000 Is she chained or something?
00:21:26.000 Well good evening and thank you so much to everybody who's tuning in to episode 18 of Lumer Unleashed.
00:21:31.000 We have a lot to talk about tonight.
00:21:33.000 As I just explained in my monologue, our entire nation is just being torn apart before our eyes.
00:21:39.000 We watched what happened just two days ago when I went live on episode 17 of Lumer Unleashed and just moments before going live we saw that the Colorado Supreme Court ruled against Donald Trump and weeks ago when we originally had
00:21:53.000 We're good to go.
00:22:16.000 The Colorado Supreme Court has unfortunately ruled against President Trump, which has caused other blue states and Soros-funded judges in places like California, including the Lieutenant Governor of California, who wants to be the next governor of California, to push for their own measures to remove President Trump from the ballot.
00:22:37.000 And so, this cannot be allowed to stand, and we're no longer respected in
00:22:42.000 I don't know.
00:23:01.000 We're good to go.
00:23:20.000 And they're really honestly leaving such a bad taste in the mouth of Democrats and Republicans and Libertarians because I don't personally think that all Democrats are radical.
00:23:29.000 I think that there's a lot of, I guess you could say, progressive Democrats that are communists, but then you also have a lot of old school Democrats who
00:23:39.000 You know, maybe they're just voting Democrat because their parents voted Democrat and they still believe in democracy.
00:23:44.000 And I think that we've seen that a lot of people are outraged and they're speaking out against this attack, right?
00:23:50.000 This attack on what we call democracy.
00:23:52.000 We have a constitutional republic, but it is an attack on the free world.
00:23:56.000 It is an attack on what's decent.
00:23:58.000 It's an attack on what is moral.
00:23:59.000 It's an attack on what is right.
00:24:00.000 And people are just not going to stand for this.
00:24:02.000 And there's been a lot of heated rhetoric over these last few days.
00:24:05.000 There's people actually calling for civil war.
00:24:07.000 There's people saying that we're going to have a civil war in this country if Donald Trump is not allowed to be on the ballot.
00:24:12.000 And so we're going to go through some of these reports, actually.
00:24:17.000 You can go follow along on Loomerd.com.
00:24:21.000 But you can see here.
00:24:25.000 Not just Colorado, okay?
00:24:26.000 Here are the 16 other states where President Trump's enemies are trying to kick him off the ballot.
00:24:31.000 Nine active cases brought by long-shot GOP presidential candidates is an article from the Gateway Pundit.
00:24:41.000 Here's the full list of states, okay?
00:24:43.000 So, according to a database maintained by Lawfare, 16 other states have pending legal challenges to the 45th President's eligibility for office under the 14th Amendment.
00:24:52.000 Like Colorado, the lawsuits fallaciously claim that President Trump is barred because he engaged in an insurrection with his so-called actions during the Capitol Hill protests on January 6, 2021.
00:25:03.000 The full list is Alaska, Arizona,
00:25:07.000 Maine, Michigan, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, South Carolina, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.
00:25:19.000 So there's the full list, okay?
00:25:21.000 And the New York Times reports that four of these lawsuits in Michigan, Oregon, New Jersey, and Wisconsin have been filed in state courts.
00:25:29.000 Eleven lawsuits in Alaska, Arizona, Nevada, New York, New Mexico, South Carolina, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming have been filed in federal district courts.
00:25:37.000 And so you can see that
00:25:40.000 Nine of the active federal cases have been brought by John Anthony Castro, who was a long-shot Republican presidential candidate, and of course he's filed, they say, 27 or challenges in 27 states regarding President Trump's eligibility on the ballot under the 14th Amendment over the years, including a case within the Supreme Court.
00:25:58.000 This isn't good, and as we've reported, and as many have reported, following this ruling by the exclusively Democrat-controlled Colorado Supreme Court, California's Lieutenant Governor Eleni Kounalakis has demanded that the Secretary of State of California, Dr. Shirley N. Weber, considers legal avenues for excluding President Trump from California's 2024 presidential
00:26:25.000 primary ballot and so why does this matter right how is this election interference right how do we know that this is election interference well
00:26:34.000 If you go to Loomer.com, Loomer Unleashed investigative reporter and contributor Charles Downs did a fabulous write-up today and an investigation, an exclusive report on Loomer.com that you can see for yourself about how election interferer Eleni Kounalakis and her donors include George Soros, Facebook, Google, and Disney.

00:29:56.000 So going back to this story, election interferer, election interferer, ooh it's a mouthful, Lenny Kounalakis donors include George Soros, Facebook, Google, and Disney.
00:30:08.000 And, you know, we're going to have a guest coming on soon too.
00:30:11.000 Just in a couple moments we're going to have Seamus Brunner who works with Peter Schweitzer, who is a renowned author.
00:30:17.000 You may know Peter Schweitzer from his books like Clinton Cash and Red Handed and a lot of great books.
00:30:22.000 And Seamus works with him.
00:30:25.000 And Seamus has his own book out called Controlagarks.
00:30:29.000 And it's a book about how, you know, exposing all of the most powerful leftist political donors and billionaires in this country and their influence and how they really behave like oligarchs.
00:30:41.000 And so we're excited that he's going to be joining us momentarily.
00:30:45.000 But in the meantime, you can scroll down and follow along with this article, this new report.
00:30:53.000 California Lieutenant Governor Eli Kounalakis' 2018, 2022, and 2026 donors include George Soros, Facebook, Google, and Disney.
00:31:03.000 She's running to be California's governor in 2026, and she's already started accepting donations for 2026.
00:31:09.000 They start early, you guys.
00:31:12.000 And all of these corporations, you know, Disney, Google, Facebook, Twitter, all the big tech companies, these are groups that worked, as you remember,
00:31:20.000 To steal the election in 2020.
00:31:23.000 All of these groups and all of these multinational corporations and big tech especially worked with our federal law enforcement agencies to steal the election from Donald Trump and interfere.
00:31:32.000 And so you can see that we already know that George Soros and the Open Society Foundation funded CREW, the organization that really spearheaded this lawsuit in Colorado to take down President Trump and remove him from the ballot.
00:31:46.000 And then
00:31:47.000 Facebook and Google both played integral roles in 2020 in interfering our elections by, you know, manipulating and algorithms.
00:31:54.000 We saw this in the 2018 midterms as well.
00:31:56.000 So you can scroll down and you can see right there the receipts.
00:31:59.000 We can go full screen and you'll see that George Soros, $36,400 on July 5th, 2023 from the Soros Fund.
00:32:04.000 George Soros again, $8,100 on December 29th, 2021.
00:32:14.000 Okay, lots of donations from George Soros to her.
00:32:17.000 Okay, dating all the way back to 2017.
00:32:20.000 So, George Soros has been a longtime donor of this Lieutenant Governor of California, Ms.
00:32:26.000 Eleni Kounalakis, and he is now supporting her to become the governor.
00:32:31.000 I think so.
00:32:53.000 They don't want President Trump to even make it to the general, okay?
00:32:56.000 So they want to keep him off the ballot so that he can't even advance to the general election against Joe Biden or Michelle Obama or Gavin Newsom, whoever the nominee is going to be.
00:33:07.000 I think that they're trying to greenlight Gavin Newsom or Michelle.
00:33:10.000 There was a story out today and we'd get this pulled up.
00:33:13.000 A poll, right, just a random poll, right, that says that Michelle Obama, I think we've got that story here, Michelle Obama is apparently the most popular woman, the most admirable woman, I guess, so they want us to think, apparently, I don't know, Michelle Obama.
00:33:30.000 I don't really think she's that admirable, but this happened today, so new poll.
00:33:36.000 You know, they're trying to make it so that Michelle Obama or Gavin Newsom can be the Democrat nominee, because as we've seen, Joe Biden just isn't cutting it, right?
00:33:45.000 His favorability and his approval ratings are at the lowest low they've ever been, and so he truly is turning out to be more unpopular than even Jimmy Carter, and President Trump made a joke about that the other day, and he said, yeah, Jimmy Carter can rest easy.
00:34:01.000 You know, he's in hospice right now.
00:34:02.000 His wife recently passed away.
00:34:06.000 You can see right here, this is a poll that came out today.
00:34:09.000 A new poll says Michelle Obama is the most admired woman.
00:34:13.000 Do we even know if she's a woman?
00:34:14.000 I mean, that's debatable as it is, right?
00:34:18.000 A lot of people think that she has a penis.
00:34:20.000 So, I don't know.
00:34:21.000 Is she a woman?
00:34:22.000 That's the question.
00:34:22.000 Nobody's ever seen a photo of this lady or Michelle, Michael, Big Mike, whatever people want to call her, pregnant.
00:34:31.000 But look, we already have Obama running the White House now.
00:34:35.000 That's why the media always says, oh, Donald Trump has dementia.
00:34:38.000 Donald Trump is losing his mind.
00:34:39.000 He thinks Obama's in the White House.
00:34:41.000 No, he doesn't think Obama is actually, right now, the legitimate president.
00:34:46.000 But he knows that it's Obama who's calling the shots, right?
00:34:49.000 It's pretty obvious that it's Obama's third term, and that's what's going on right now.
00:34:52.000 So, I think we're getting Seamus on soon.
00:34:56.000 Is he connecting?
00:34:59.000 Oh, he's having a hard time.
00:35:00.000 I guess the production team let me know that he's having a hard time connecting.
00:35:04.000 So hopefully we get him connected soon.
00:35:08.000 We can go back to this article, though.
00:35:11.000 Election interfere.
00:35:12.000 L. A. Kunalakis.
00:35:14.000 Let's go through these donors as well.
00:35:16.000 So if you scroll down, you can see
00:35:20.000 Her donor is George Soros.
00:35:21.000 And then, a while ago, I was on Bannon, right?
00:35:23.000 And this was me when I was talking on the Steve Bannon Show in November.
00:35:26.000 And I said, to no one's surprise, George Soros is responsible for funding the election interference in Colorado through lawfare in an attempt to remove President Trump from the ballot.
00:35:35.000 I even caught Melanie Sloan of Crew.
00:35:37.000 That's Citizens for Responsibility.
00:35:39.000 Netflix, we're going to play this clip for you soon.
00:35:41.000 The organization that filed the case against President Trump admitting it herself.
00:35:46.000 Just to jog your memory, right, just so that you can see for yourself, let's go ahead and play this clip.
00:35:51.000 We're gonna play this clip for you, and you can see this is from my interview with Steve Bannon, and you can hear the clip, so it's not a conspiracy theory.
00:35:59.000 People say, oh, George Soros, everyone likes to blame everything on George Soros.
00:36:03.000 I just showed you the receipts, the financial election receipts in the election database that show that the Lieutenant Governor of California, who is now trying to get Donald Trump removed, is funded by George Soros, okay?
00:36:16.000 And I'm going to show you in this clip from November, the woman herself, the Executive Director of CREW.
00:36:23.000 One of the founding members, of course, with Norm Eisen of Crew, saying that George Soros is their biggest donor.
00:36:29.000 So let's go ahead and play this clip, because this is from my interview in November.
00:36:32.000 November 1st with Steve Bannon.
00:36:33.000 But here we are, right?
00:36:35.000 Today is December 21st, and we are still dealing with the same issues.
00:36:42.000 And when I first took over the campaign, the first guy I turned to, Bernie Marcus, is a man.
00:36:46.000 She's one of the greatest men in this country, a great patriot.
00:36:49.000 He is fantastic and a man of discernment.
00:36:51.000 I want to play this clip.
00:36:52.000 I want to pivot to another because you're all over this Denver.
00:36:55.000 And people got to start taking this Colorado thing seriously.
00:36:58.000 The Newsweek slightly had the headline wrong.
00:37:01.000 I didn't say Trump is going to be removed from the ballot.
00:37:03.000 I said he's going to lose this case because the judge has already made up her mind, just like in New York.
00:37:08.000 He's going to lose at Appeals Court, because in Colorado it's stacked, and their Supreme Court.
00:37:12.000 The U.S.
00:37:12.000 Supreme Court is going to step in here, but they're not looking for a legal win.
00:37:16.000 They're looking for the political warfare and information war.
00:37:19.000 Let's play this clip, and I want to come back to Laura Loomer.
00:37:23.000 You don't have it?
00:37:23.000 Okay.
00:37:25.000 Laura, we don't have the clip.
00:37:26.000 Tell me about... You were the first one to break what was happening in Colorado.
00:37:29.000 I sent it.
00:37:29.000 It's on Twitter.
00:37:30.000 I can retweet it as well, but I definitely sent it this morning to your team.
00:37:34.000 But regardless, if people want to go to my ex account, they can see it for themselves.
00:37:37.000 Really what it is, is it's a clip.
00:37:39.000 It just goes to show you that this is a witch hunt.
00:37:42.000 This is a political lawfare against President Donald Trump in an effort to keep him off the ballot.
00:37:49.000 And the clip that I have, Steve, is Melanie Sloan, who of course was the executive director for this group called Crew.
00:37:58.000 And in this clip, she admits that George Soros is one of the biggest donors to the organization.
00:38:03.000 And of course CREW is the organization that stands for Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics that has filed this lawsuit against Donald Trump in an effort to keep him off the ballot in Colorado.
00:38:14.000 I'll try pulling it up again.
00:38:16.000 I'll retweet it so it's at the very top.
00:38:19.000 Hang on one second.
00:38:20.000 We got it.
00:38:20.000 Let's go ahead and play it, Denver.
00:38:22.000 Who are some of the biggest donors you have and is there a restriction on how much money they can give you?
00:38:27.000 We don't have any restriction, but I would say our biggest donors are, for example, the Open Society Institute is a very big donor.
00:38:38.000 And whose organization is that?
00:38:40.000 Well, it's a foundation, but it's well known to be, George Soros is the one who funds it.
00:38:46.000 The Wallace Global Fund gives us money.
00:38:50.000 The ARCA Foundation gives us money.
00:38:52.000 Those are some of the big foundations.
00:38:54.000 Carnegie Corporation gives us money.
00:38:56.000 You do see a thread through the different sides in this, where a big donor like George Soros will give to an awful lot of progressive organizations.
00:39:03.000 Does he ever ask for anything directly?
00:39:05.000 No, and I have met him, and he's never asked for anything at all.
00:39:08.000 And I meet with the program officer from the Open Society Institute, and they're very happy with what we do, and they're very keen on transparency.
00:39:18.000 We're part of their democracy.
00:39:20.000 You don't need to ask because she's delivering.
00:39:23.000 This is what's going on.
00:39:23.000 This is the never Trump.
00:39:25.000 This is the way Soros gets into our election system.
00:39:28.000 Right here, Laura Loomer.
00:39:30.000 No, absolutely.
00:39:30.000 And that's why it's so funny when he goes, oh, does he ever tell you exactly what to do?
00:39:34.000 These are dark money organizations that are in violation of their 501c3 tax status.
00:39:40.000 You're not supposed to be operating as a political arm when you're doing philanthropy work.
00:39:45.000 And yet that's what we see, Steve.
00:39:46.000 We see all of these so-called Democrat philanthropic organizations and nobody ever calls them out.
00:39:52.000 And so I want to know, where's the GOP Oversight Committee in Congress?
00:39:56.000 Are they going to start calling people like George Soros out?
00:39:59.000 Are they going to start lifting the hood and looking into all of these 501c3s?
00:40:03.000 Laura Loomer.
00:40:04.000 Real quickly, Laura, I want to make sure you made a great point.
00:40:06.000 I take it House Oversight or one of those committees, you want them to immediately, because you're saying this is a total scam.
00:40:34.000 These not-for-profits are not philanthropic.
00:40:36.000 They're directly involved in election interference.
00:40:38.000 They're trying to take Trump off the ballot.
00:40:39.000 This thing, I'm telling you folks, you're going to see it in Arizona.
00:40:42.000 You're going to see it in Michigan.
00:40:43.000 The Supreme Court is going to overrule them.
00:40:46.000 But the political information warfare that they're going to get a leg up on you, people in their minds say, well, is Trump even supposed to be on the ballot?
00:40:53.000 Can he even be on the ballot?
00:40:54.000 And the donors are going to use this nonstop.
00:40:58.000 They're already talking about it.
00:40:59.000 Christie's already saying, well, Trump may not even be on the ballot.
00:41:01.000 This is what they're going to try to extend this primary, which should be shut down after the Miami debate should be over.
00:41:06.000 Finished.
00:41:07.000 Laura Loomer.
00:41:07.000 Yeah, I mean, look, that was the whole that was the whole premise for Ron DeSantis, right?
00:41:11.000 Filing to run for president.
00:41:13.000 He ever since 2000, 2020, really, I mean, it's the worst kept secret in Florida, Steve.
00:41:18.000 He was talking about how, oh, well, Trump's going to go to jail and he's not going to be able to run.
00:41:22.000 He's going to be off the ballot.
00:41:23.000 And so that's why Ron DeSantis
00:41:25.000 It's
00:41:47.000 All right.
00:42:04.000 I don't know.
00:42:20.000 Hey, she never talks to... Come on, back off.
00:42:22.000 She never talks to Soros.
00:42:26.000 He never tells her what to do.
00:42:27.000 Laura, where do they go for your new show?
00:42:29.000 Where do they go for the one social media platform you've got, which I guess is Getter and Twitter?
00:42:38.000 I'm on Getter and Twitter, and I'm also on Truth Social at Laura Loomer, and then my show is called Loomer Unleashed.
00:42:44.000 It's every Tuesday and Thursday at 8 p.m.
00:42:46.000 Eastern on Rumble Live, so be sure that you catch tonight's episode.
00:42:49.000 I'm going to be exclusively interviewing David Helio.
00:42:53.000 He's the new America First challenger that just filed against Kevin McCarthy, and he's agreed to give me the exclusive interview.
00:42:59.000 Wow.
00:42:59.000 So we're going to take McCarthy out.
00:43:01.000 Wow.
00:43:01.000 We are.
00:43:01.000 We're going to take him out.
00:43:02.000 He cannot be in Congress.
00:43:03.000 It's not enough to just remove him from House Speakers, so you're not going to want to miss it tonight.
00:43:07.000 Rumble.com slash Laura Loomer.
00:43:14.000 Look, I was reporting on this before anybody, okay?
00:43:17.000 I did this exclusive deep dive.
00:43:20.000 I'm the one that uncovered the fact that Melanie Sloan of Crew was funded by George Soros, okay?
00:43:26.000 And then others started to, of course, pick up on this.
00:43:28.000 And now, we warned people that this was gonna happen, and now everybody's talking about it, right?
00:43:32.000 But that was back in November, and it shows you, you can see the time stamp on that, that people were
00:43:38.000 Kind of late to the game on this.
00:43:39.000 And of course, Republicans could have investigated this if they wanted to.
00:43:43.000 We'll get that article up on the, on the, uh, on the site.
00:43:46.000 Loomerd.com.
00:43:48.000 Loomerd.com.
00:43:49.000 Exposing Norm Eisen and Melanie Sloan, the prolific Biden donors, behind the effort to remove Trump from Colorado's ballot in 2024.
00:43:57.000 So you can see these are all Biden donors.
00:43:59.000 Okay.
00:44:00.000 We can play that clip as well.
00:44:01.000 We played it earlier as well.
00:44:02.000 We just saw that on the Bannon clip.
00:44:04.000 Melanie Sloan.
00:44:06.000 That was October.
00:44:07.000 In October, I was reporting on this.
00:44:09.000 We're in December now, okay?
00:44:10.000 So, if you want to get news before anybody else, like months ahead of time, sometimes even years before other people pick up on it, you gotta follow me on X, you gotta follow me on True Social, at Laura Loomer, and you gotta subscribe.
00:44:23.000 Well, just download Rumble and follow my show, Loomer Unleashed.
00:44:27.000 Follow my channel, Laura Loomer, because it's free.
00:44:30.000 It's free, and I don't think anybody else is giving you this type of news as fast as I am, so... You gotta know what's happening, because our country's being destroyed before our eyes, and... They're stealing.
00:44:42.000 They're trying to steal the election again.
00:44:44.000 And this is proof.
00:44:45.000 Let's go back to that article up on the screen about the election interferer from California, okay?
00:44:51.000 It's like clockwork.
00:44:52.000 Go back to the other one.
00:44:53.000 I think that, uh... Is that it?
00:44:54.000 Yeah, scroll down.
00:44:56.000 So, you can see there, again, Soros.
00:44:59.000 It's not a coincidence that Alex Soros, who's now taking over George Soros' Open Societies Foundation, was just meeting with Gavin Newsom.
00:45:07.000 And, of course, Gavin Newsom has appointed this woman, this lady, this Alani
00:45:13.000 Kounalakis sounds like a Greek last name to be his lieutenant governor.
00:45:18.000 So there you have it.
00:45:19.000 George Soros' son hanging out with Gavin Newsom September 18th and then June, July, August, September, October is when this lawsuit was filed, when it went to trial actually in Colorado.
00:45:30.000 So September, October, right, they're all meeting together, and now we're in December, and now you have this same Soros-funded lawsuit getting upheld by the Colorado Supreme Court, and now you have the California lieutenant governor who is tied to George Soros through the donations, is tied to Alex Soros through Gavin Newsom, now
00:45:51.000 Saying, you know what, I'm directing the California Secretary of State to also take Trump off the ballot.
00:45:55.000 And why?
00:45:56.000 Because they don't even want him to win the primary.
00:45:59.000 This isn't even about the general election.
00:46:01.000 California, as I said before, has the highest number of GOP primary delegates, okay?
00:46:07.000 We already saw this when I went out to California back in September for the GOP convention after I exposed the rhino-led
00:46:15.000 California GOP's plot to steal the nomination from Donald Trump by allocating half the delegates to Ron DeSantis, right?
00:46:25.000 They wanted to have like a consolation prize and...
00:46:29.000 They ended up having to revert back to their old rules after I exposed them for their deceptive rule changes that was clearly just an effort to hurt President Trump.
00:46:40.000 And even President Trump himself posted on Truth that I basically saved the nomination for him out of California because, well, these people are sneaky.
00:46:50.000 We'll get that pulled up as well.
00:46:52.000 Had a lot of great patriots that came out to that rally in support of President Trump.
00:46:58.000 At the California GOP, where Ron DeSantis and Never Back Down tried to, uh, deceptively change the rules to screw President Trump.
00:47:06.000 But, uh, as you probably noticed, right, Never Back Down is imploding.
00:47:11.000 Uh, just the other day, Jeff Rowe actually resigned, right?
00:47:14.000 The head of Never Back Down resigned, so they're imploding.
00:47:17.000 And I just got sent an article right now, so funny.
00:47:23.000 Says, uh, this is from, uh, New York Intelligencer.
00:47:25.000 It's, uh, DeSantis super PAC is imploding much like his campaign.
00:47:30.000 So that's funny.
00:47:32.000 We'll pull that up as well.
00:47:32.000 That's great.
00:47:34.000 Just nonstop chaos.
00:47:36.000 He was in Iowa today and he just had like a total meltdown.
00:47:38.000 I'll post this in the chat.
00:47:39.000 We'll get this up.
00:47:40.000 But, uh, also we're live right now, you guys.
00:47:42.000 Let's go to the chat.
00:47:43.000 If you're enjoying this, please press 1 in the chat, but also be sure that you share the link on your Twitter, your Facebook, your Instagram, wherever.
00:47:53.000 Be sure that you share this link because we want everybody to get access to this information.
00:47:58.000 Seamus Brunner is having some technical difficulties, but he is our first guest tonight, and we also have another guest coming on at the 10 o'clock hour, so we're just
00:48:09.000 His video is not working for some reason, and so we're trying to connect him, and worst case scenario, we will connect him via audio.
00:48:16.000 He has a new book out called Control-A-Garx, and we're excited to hear from him about that and his work with Peter Schweitzer.
00:48:26.000 Hope everybody's having a good night.
00:48:32.000 So if you go back to that article about, uh, here we go.
00:48:38.000 DeSantis' super PAC is imploding, much like his campaign.
00:48:44.000 Yeah.
00:48:45.000 Sad.
00:48:46.000 How sad.
00:48:51.000 One of the minor dramas underlying the major spectacle of Donald Trump's comeback bid has been the steady unraveling of the once-powerful Ron DeSantis campaign, which is now holding on with grim determination to its one shot at temporary survival in Iowa.
00:49:03.000 Oof, brutal.
00:49:04.000 The campaign has rashly predicted victory in the caucuses, though a distant second-place finish is the only realistic positive outcome.
00:49:10.000 Anything less would presumably mean the end.
00:49:13.000 Even Nikki Haley now is ahead of Ron DeSantis.
00:49:17.000 And in fact, I think we have this ad pulled up.
00:49:19.000 We can get it pulled up if not.
00:49:21.000 The other day, Nikki Haley, her pack actually, a pack in support of her, put out an ad titled, Dumpster Fire.
00:49:28.000 And it was so funny.
00:49:31.000 And I think we have, we have Seamus now.
00:49:34.000 We're going to connect him.
00:49:35.000 So after, let's play this ad really quick before we get to Seamus, because I think we have this pulled up.
00:49:42.000 It's just a brutal ad, and even Nikki Haley's people are just slamming Ron DeSantis for the failure that it is, because his campaign really is just a giant dumpster fire.
00:49:52.000 And we're going to play this ad for you now.
00:49:54.000 The ad is called Dumpster Fire.
00:49:55.000 It is so funny.
00:49:56.000 This was put out by PAC in support of Nikki Haley, just highlighting the absolute disaster that is Ron DeSantis' PAC and his campaign.
00:50:03.000 So go ahead and play the clip.
00:50:06.000 In a world of chaos, the last thing America needs is another dumpster fire.
00:50:13.000 Support for Ron DeSantis plummeting.
00:50:15.000 Republican voters are just not fed into DeSantis.
00:50:18.000 Ron DeSantis consistently trails.
00:50:20.000 His campaign has been floundering basically since he announced.
00:50:24.000 DeSantis is getting a lot of bad campaign news this week.
00:50:28.000 I think the story of DeSantis is quickly coming to an end right here.
00:50:31.000 SFA Fund Inc.
00:50:32.000 is responsible for the content of this advertising.
00:50:38.000 Brutal ad.
00:50:39.000 Absolutely brutal ad.
00:50:41.000 I mean, but it's true, right?
00:50:42.000 All they had to do was just show a dumpster burning and then the titles, right?
00:50:46.000 The titles of all the negative articles about Ron DeSantis and his failed campaign.
00:50:51.000 Oh my God, what a disaster.
00:50:53.000 He's such an embarrassment.
00:50:54.000 So, what a disaster.
00:50:57.000 So, I believe we now have Seamus.
00:51:00.000 We're going to get his video up.
00:51:06.000 Seamus, Seamus Brunner, hopefully.
00:51:08.000 Is his audio now?
00:51:09.000 Do we have his audio up?
00:51:10.000 Can you hear him?
00:51:11.000 All right, I think that he's connected now.
00:51:14.000 So I'm really excited for our next guest.
00:51:15.000 I just saw him a couple days ago at an event, and he's somebody I've known for a couple years now.
00:51:21.000 His name is Seamus Brunner.
00:51:23.000 And he works with Peter Schweitzer.
00:51:25.000 Many of you know Peter Schweitzer for his amazing books and his documentaries, some of which include Red-Handed or Clinton Cash.
00:51:35.000 That was a great book and also film that came out during the 2016 presidential election.
00:51:40.000 You're highlighting
00:51:42.000 The corruption within the Clinton Foundation.
00:51:44.000 And Seamus does a lot of work with Peter and is really his right-hand man when it comes to helping him with all of his books and his writings.
00:51:52.000 And so he has his own book out now.
00:51:55.000 It's called Controlligarchs, Exposing the Billionaire Class, Their Secret Deals, and the Globalist Plot to Dominate Your Life.
00:52:03.000 And we have a nice cover here.
00:52:04.000 You can see he has Klaus Schwab on the cover, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, and George Soros.
00:52:10.000 Many of the same people that we were just talking about tonight.
00:52:14.000 People at the center of interfering in our elections, of course, like Klaus Schwab, World Economic Forum, Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Bezos of Amazon, and also Washington Post, and Soros as well.
00:52:27.000 So without further ado,
00:52:30.000 I'm going to bring on Seamus.
00:52:33.000 Seamus Brunner.
00:52:34.000 Seamus, great to have you with us tonight.
00:52:38.000 I don't think his audio is on.
00:52:40.000 His audio is not coming through.
00:52:41.000 I don't think his audio is working right now.
00:52:45.000 I think he's still having a couple issues connecting.
00:52:50.000 Let's see if we can get it fixed.
00:53:00.000 He's having some audio issues.
00:53:07.000 Well, while we're waiting for his audio to connect, we can go back to, uh, we can go back to that article about the Lieutenant Governor out of California.
00:53:15.000 He seems to be having an issue connecting his audio, but we're gonna get it sorted out and we'll get him on.
00:53:19.000 Don't worry.
00:53:20.000 We will get him connected.
00:53:23.000 So, finish, uh, go back to the article about the Lieutenant Governor.
00:53:27.000 The Lieutenant Governor
00:53:30.000 California.
00:53:31.000 Scroll down and you can see her other donations at the bottom there.
00:53:34.000 Yeah, so Facebook, right?
00:53:36.000 We already showed you the Soros donation.
00:53:38.000 So records from the California Secretary of State office show that Facebook donated to Kounalakis' 2022 campaign.
00:53:46.000 During the 2020 election, Facebook infamously prevented the Hunter Biden laptop story from reaching its users.
00:53:51.000 You know that they colluded with the FBI
00:53:53.000 Even Zuckerberg himself admitted it on Joe Rogan's show, his podcast.
00:53:58.000 Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg donated over $350 million to install ballot drop boxes across America during the 2020 election.
00:54:06.000 Of course, that's something that we've exposed extensively.
00:54:08.000 I traveled out in May to Washington D.C.
00:54:11.000 where I
00:54:12.000 I don't know.
00:54:39.000 I think we have Seamus now.
00:54:40.000 His audio is working.
00:54:41.000 All right.
00:54:42.000 So his audio is working now.
00:54:45.000 We're going to bring him on.
00:54:46.000 And this is perfect because we're talking about Facebook now.
00:54:50.000 We're talking about Mark Zuckerberg.
00:54:52.000 And we're going to talk about all of these people interfering in our elections.
00:54:56.000 And so I believe we now have Seamus.
00:54:58.000 Seamus, can you hear me?
00:55:00.000 Yeah, Laura, I can hear you.
00:55:02.000 I'm so sorry about this.
00:55:03.000 It's okay, you know.
00:55:04.000 I think there was an audio issue on your end, but sometimes it happens.
00:55:09.000 It's okay.
00:55:10.000 But we are very excited to have you.
00:55:11.000 I wish you could see our setup right now.
00:55:13.000 I can see it.
00:55:13.000 We are doing it jerry-rigged through the laptop with the AirPods.
00:55:18.000 Oh, it looks great.
00:55:19.000 It looks like you have a nice background behind you, and it's all good.
00:55:22.000 Everything is great.
00:55:24.000 Sometimes there's technical difficulties.
00:55:26.000 No problem.
00:55:26.000 It's not the first time it's happened on this show.
00:55:30.000 We really appreciate you coming on, and I don't know if you were able to catch the beginning segment of my show before you came on.
00:55:36.000 But I was talking about how this effort to remove Donald Trump from the ballot in Colorado at the Supreme Court, judges in Colorado, they're all funded by Soros.
00:55:47.000 This is a Soros operation.
00:55:49.000 It is funded by CRU, which is, well, it was first filed by CRU, the organization that filed this lawsuit.
00:55:56.000 They are funded by Soros.
00:55:58.000 That is not a conspiracy theory.
00:55:59.000 I've just showed all the receipts, all the documents, all the video recordings.
00:56:03.000 And now we see other Secretaries of State
00:56:06.000 We're good to go.
00:56:26.000 All these people have received donations from Mark Zuckerberg and George Soros.
00:56:30.000 And I couldn't help but notice that two of the, uh, controligarchs, really catchy name there, I assume it's because, uh, these people are controlling our elections and controlling our country, but they act like oligarchs.
00:56:42.000 Two of these people are Mark Zuckerberg and Soros, and so I wanted to just allow you to talk about your book, introduce yourself, talk about the work that you do, the organization you work for, and all of the amazing work you're doing with Peter Schweitzer, and kind of just how your book, you know, really relates to the upcoming 2024 election.
00:57:03.000 Well, thank you so much.
00:57:04.000 Yeah, the Kontrologarks, as I define them, are the billionaires and bureaucrats plotting and scheming to dominate every aspect of your life.
00:57:12.000 And so at the Government Accountability Institute with Peter Schweitzer, we follow the money.
00:57:16.000 That's sort of our motto.
00:57:18.000 We followed it to the Clinton Foundation, followed it to Biden with Burisma and the Chinese deals.
00:57:24.000 And so during the pandemic, I thought, well,
00:57:27.000 There actually seems to be, you know, the politicians are sort of puppets in a way.
00:57:31.000 I mean, look at Joe Biden.
00:57:32.000 He's not actually making any of the decisions.
00:57:35.000 And so I wanted to follow the money all the way to the top.
00:57:38.000 And so people like Bill Gates seem to be running the pandemic response strategy.
00:57:43.000 George Soros, of course, is rigging our elections, has been for a very long time.
00:57:48.000 Mark Zuckerberg too, of course.
00:57:50.000 Everybody knows about the Zuckerbucks.
00:57:53.000 And thankfully, the Zuckerbucks are being banned in a lot of states.
00:57:56.000 The problem is, is people like George Soros, as you know, you had a great, great long intro there where you laid it all out.
00:58:04.000 I mean, you're exactly right.
00:58:06.000 Uh, I talk about in the book how Soros has a number of ways he rigs the elections, tries to control our elections.
00:58:13.000 And so number one is just through your average run-of-the-mill campaign contributions.
00:58:18.000 And so, you know, he's the largest political funder pretty much every cycle.
00:58:23.000 I mean, in 20...
00:58:25.000 22, he sets records with $180 million.
00:58:30.000 He's already donated through his Democracy Pack 2 over $10 million in the year 2023, obviously for 2024.
00:58:41.000 He's maxed out to Biden.
00:58:42.000 He and his son Alex.
00:58:44.000 And so I was not sure if George Soros was going to make it.
00:58:49.000 I don't think so.
00:59:05.000 We're good to go.
00:59:25.000 Like opening up the jails and letting the criminals run wild through our cities.
00:59:30.000 They're now using their prosecutorial powers and they're trying to bury Donald Trump under the prison.
00:59:36.000 It's a disgrace trying to put him in jail for a thousand years.
00:59:41.000 And so that's the lawfare side of rigging elections that Soros, both Soros, George and Alex are into.
00:59:47.000 And then number three is this even more insidious method with the dark money groups like CREW.
00:59:53.000 And you've done a great job exposing them.
00:59:55.000 I mean, George and Alex Soros and the Open Society Network have poured more than $3 million into CREW in recent years.
01:00:03.000 That's a lot of money to a think tank, to a nonprofit.
01:00:06.000 And so, yeah, you played Melanie Sloan.
01:00:07.000 She's, you know, she's obviously a Soros shill here.
01:00:12.000 And it's not a coincidence that they're trying to take Donald Trump's name off of the ballot.
01:00:17.000 Just another thing on Cru, I might have missed it while we were having the technical difficulties, but there was a great piece in the Daily Caller today about the head.
01:00:24.000 Noah Bookbinder has got a direct line to the Biden Homeland Security Division.
01:00:30.000 He's a DHS advisory member.
01:00:33.000 So this is so crooked.
01:00:34.000 It's Banana Republic.
01:00:36.000 Not enough bad things can be said about it.
01:00:38.000 And then Eleni Kounalakis, I mean, she's a disgrace.
01:00:41.000 And you touched on Zuckerberg funding her and all the other politicians in California, the left-wing politicians.
01:00:49.000 So yes, the control guards are totally against free and fair elections.
01:00:54.000 They fund these groups that say they're for free and fair elections.
01:00:58.000 It's total inversion.
01:01:00.000 Thank you for having me.
01:01:21.000 Absolutely.
01:01:22.000 And how did you come up with the title?
01:01:24.000 I mean, I kind of had my own imaginative, I guess, like perception of how you came up with it, right?
01:01:30.000 Like people controlling our country.
01:01:32.000 It's kind of a play on words, right?
01:01:33.000 Like oligarch control.
01:01:35.000 But I don't know, maybe I'm wrong.
01:01:37.000 How did you come up with this catchy title?
01:01:41.000 Yeah, well, that's exactly right.
01:01:42.000 I mean, everybody's heard of the term oligarch, you know, usually used around Russians, you know, the Russian oligarchs and the Ukrainian oligarchs.
01:01:50.000 And you kind of have this image of some industrialist guy sitting on his yacht eating caviar.
01:01:56.000 And the oligarchs of Russia, they don't really want to control too much.
01:01:59.000 They just want to get super rich.
01:02:00.000 But an oligarch is someone who's very tight with the government.
01:02:03.000 You know, they're blessed by either Putin or Zelensky in Ukraine's case.
01:02:09.000 But we've also in recent years heard them start talking about like Silicon Valley oligarchs.
01:02:14.000 And so, you know, that term was just on my mind as I was working on this book.
01:02:19.000 But what I kept coming back to was just how they're trying to control everything.
01:02:24.000 They're not just simple rich people who the billionaires of years past, you know, maybe the Henry Fords or the Vanderbilts and those kind of billionaires, like they just wanted to build schools and hospitals, right?
01:02:36.000 These oligarchs of the 21st century, the Mark Zuckerbergs, the Jeff Bezoses,
01:02:41.000 George Soros is, and of course, Bill Gates.
01:02:44.000 They want to control every aspect of your life, and so throughout the book, I go industry by industry, from healthcare, and Bill Gates with the pharmaceuticals, and the mandates, and the jabs, healthcare industry, Chapter 3.
01:02:56.000 Yeah, you can't go through all the different things, because I see the people on the cover.
01:03:01.000 Are those the only control agarics you highlight, or are those just the main characters?
01:03:05.000 Are there more?
01:03:06.000 Or is the book only focused on those five or so people that you have on the cover?
01:03:11.000 No, that's a great question.
01:03:13.000 There's roughly 30 control-a-gurks.
01:03:15.000 I mean, there's 3,000 billionaires plus, 3,100 or so billionaires.
01:03:20.000 Only about 30 of them make the cut for the book, and so there's others in there.
01:03:23.000 Larry Fink and BlackRock, that's a very control-happy institution.
01:03:28.000 Laurene Powell Jobs, she's in there, and all of her censorship and disinformation initiatives.
01:03:34.000 She's huge, and everybody needs to pay attention to what Laurene Powell Jobs is up to.
01:03:38.000 She's kind of slunk back into the shadows, but she's
01:03:41.000 And to those who don't know who that is, that's Steve Jobs' widow, correct?
01:03:48.000 Yeah, that's right.
01:03:50.000 Steve Jobs, when he died, rest in peace Steve Jobs, he was a good guy for the most part, compared with the rest of these guys.
01:03:57.000 Lorraine Powell Jobs has now used the fortune he left her to fund all of these radical left-wing groups and all of these propaganda initiatives.
01:04:05.000 I've got a figure in the book, she and George Soros combined, because they fund a lot of similar initiatives, she and George Soros combined have spent $1.7
01:04:14.000 One billion dollars trying on disinformation initiatives, various things like Media Matters and things that are going to like label you as hate speech or label you as disinformation, like in censoring people.
01:04:27.000 I mean, trying to get you people like you, Laura, people like me taken off the Internet.
01:04:32.000 That's what Laurene Powell Jobs is up to.
01:04:34.000 I've also got Mark Benioff and Craig Newmark, Craigslist founder.
01:04:40.000 These are a lot of the left-wing billionaires who are trying to stifle free speech.
01:04:45.000 The people who fund things like the Aspen Institute and the Stanford Centers that are running these operations for how to rig elections.
01:04:53.000 Aspen, people may remember, had this
01:04:56.000 We're good to go.
01:05:25.000 Unclear.
01:05:26.000 They were working with the FBI.
01:05:27.000 We know this from the Twitter files.
01:05:30.000 But 100 Biden's laptop is going to be working out.
01:05:32.000 So we all need to be redoubling our efforts to label it as Russian disinformation.
01:05:37.000 They did this before it came out in October of 2020.
01:05:40.000 So you can be sure that they are working on things like this right now, getting ready for 2024 to make sure that whoever the nominee is, whether Biden makes it all the way through the convention as the nominee, or they have to slip in someone else like Gavin Newsom,
01:05:55.000 You can be sure that they're working on initiatives and they're funded by the control guards.
01:06:00.000 I mean, George Soros, of course, with crew, but they are, you know, working on a lot of initiatives.
01:06:08.000 ...information for anybody who really wants to understand who's funding the destruction of our country.
01:06:14.000 People need to read this book, right?
01:06:16.000 And it's not just the typical people like the George Soroses and the Mark Zuckerbergs and the Bill Gateses.
01:06:22.000 As you said, that was my question is, is it just focused on those five?
01:06:25.000 But you said there's about 30, 30 billionaires.
01:06:28.000 And how many billionaires did you say that there are in the world or even in this country?
01:06:32.000 There's over 3,000.
01:06:32.000 Yeah, there's over 3,000 billionaires.
01:06:35.000 Actually, since the pandemic began, they've been like being minted a new billionaire every 30 minutes.
01:06:42.000 And that's really what the book came from, is that out of the pandemic, I just followed the money to each of these guys.
01:06:48.000 Everybody knows they got super rich.
01:06:50.000 I mean, Mark Zuckerberg doubled his net worth from the beginning of the pandemic through today.
01:06:55.000 He was at $64 billion or so, and now he's at like around $120 billion.
01:07:01.000 Jeff Bezos doubled, I mean, come on, Amazon doubled its market cap because of the pandemic, almost.
01:07:09.000 And so all of these guys, they got really rich off the pandemic.
01:07:12.000 That's not so surprising to a lot of people.
01:07:14.000 But what is surprising is the industries that they're trying to take control of.
01:07:17.000 And so I go into how they're seizing control over the energy industry, over the transportation industry.
01:07:23.000 Over the farming industry.
01:07:25.000 I mean, a big section on this is how Bill Gates is buying up all this farmland and, you know, he's got some sinister intentions with it.
01:07:33.000 I mean, he's using a Microsoft strategy called Embrace and Extend Extinguish.
01:07:38.000 This was exposed during the antitrust trial in the 90s.
01:07:43.000 Bill Gates is using this tactic that the Justice Department said was anti-competitive.
01:07:48.000 First, he enters an industry, that's the embrace phase, buys up some farmland,
01:07:53.000 Then he buys more and more of it.
01:07:55.000 That's the extend phase.
01:07:57.000 And then we're right now in the extinguish phase where he is extinguishing the competition.
01:08:01.000 That would be your family owned farms that have been owned for generations.
01:08:05.000 And he does that by pushing for climate change regulations.
01:08:08.000 So it's really sinister stuff that they're up to.
01:08:11.000 He wants you to eat fake meat.
01:08:13.000 They want to ban cows.
01:08:15.000 I mean, we're not going to do it, but he has this tricky little method where he raises the price of your ribeyes to the point where you can't afford them, and eventually that beyond meat starts looking pretty tasty.
01:08:26.000 It's really sick stuff.
01:08:27.000 And you talk about that.
01:08:28.000 You talk about that, because I've noticed that.
01:08:30.000 I like ribeyes, okay?
01:08:31.000 I'm a ribeye kind of girl, so I really like
01:08:35.000 I do.
01:08:36.000 I just love, I love ribeyes.
01:08:38.000 And it's low carb, you know, full of protein.
01:08:42.000 And I've noticed that every single time I go to the store, it's like my ribeyes cost like $3 more.
01:08:46.000 And I'm like, what the hell?
01:08:48.000 Why is my ribeye so expensive now?
01:08:49.000 It's crazy.
01:08:49.000 I mean, imagine like a $50 ribeye.
01:08:52.000 I mean, that's what they're working up to.
01:08:53.000 Bill Gates has a term for it.
01:08:55.000 He's got this nifty little term called a green premium.
01:08:59.000 And Pete Buttigieg actually is working, he talked about it.
01:09:02.000 You might remember when Pete Buttigieg, he was talking about fuel price increases where
01:09:08.000 He said, the more pain that people are experiencing at the pump, the more benefit there is to people who own electric vehicles.
01:09:17.000 So they actually are artificially raising the prices of things under the guise of, I guess, like saving the planet or something.
01:09:24.000 You know, which is such a hubristic, arrogant goal.
01:09:28.000 It's like they think that they can save the planet.
01:09:32.000 The more pain, the more benefit.
01:09:34.000 That's how they see it.
01:09:35.000 The more pain to your wallet buying a ribeye, the more benefit there is for the people who are buying the fake meats.
01:09:43.000 Yeah, and I think a lot of people, they don't necessarily know how a lot of the information regarding the Clinton Foundation or even the Burisma investigation came about.
01:09:56.000 People know about these investigations, but I don't think a lot of people know that you and Peter Schweitzer are the people behind these investigations.
01:10:04.000 Talk a little bit about the work that you do with Peter and some of the investigations that you're currently working on and how you guys, you know, really were the original source of a lot of this information that came out.
01:10:17.000 Because the Clinton Foundation information really influenced the...
01:10:41.000 Well, that was crazy.
01:10:42.000 The internet just completely went out for some reason.
01:10:46.000 I don't know what happened, but the entire modem just crashed.
01:10:49.000 So we had to reset everything.
01:10:51.000 So I apologize for that delay.
01:10:53.000 That's what happened.
01:10:54.000 But unfortunately, I can't really control that, can I?
01:10:57.000 So we're going to get Seamus back on in a minute so that we can resume the interview.
01:11:02.000 I apologize for that brief interruption, but very strange.
01:11:07.000 The internet and the entire studio just went out.
01:11:11.000 But you can see for yourself, here's the book.
01:11:14.000 I believe you can get it on Amazon.
01:11:16.000 I believe they sell it at a bunch of different... He's going to tell us when he gets back on where you can buy it, but I'm sure they have it on Amazon.
01:11:23.000 Controlagarks exposing the billionaire class.
01:11:27.000 Exposing the billionaire class.
01:11:30.000 Their secret deals and the globalist plot to dominate your life.
01:11:35.000 We're getting him back on so that we can finish this interview.
01:11:41.000 Please be sure that if you're watching that you repost the link.
01:11:44.000 Unfortunately, the internet crashed for a moment, but we are back online and we will get Seamus back on momentarily.
01:11:55.000 But this is where you can buy the book.
01:11:58.000 I have the book.
01:11:59.000 I highly recommend it.
01:12:00.000 I think that it's very educational, it's very informative, and I would encourage everyone to read this book because you want to know.
01:12:08.000 You want to know who is responsible for the destruction of America.
01:12:12.000 And it's easy to talk about issues on a very surface level.
01:12:17.000 In a surface level way, but once you're able to learn how to follow the money and you understand the key players, you can have a more advanced way of talking about these issues and these players and the people that are behind the theft of our elections and the financing of this election interference and these, you know, anti-Trump efforts and these pro-censorship efforts in our country right now.
01:12:38.000 We're going to get Seamus back on in a moment, but I would encourage all of you, if you can, look, the holidays are coming up and Christmas is in four days.
01:12:48.000 And if you're a last minute shopper, and I know I am, right?
01:12:52.000 When it comes to getting Hanukkah gifts or even Christmas gifts for some of my friends, I'm really bad at shopping.
01:12:59.000 I really am.
01:13:00.000 I'm one of those people that kind of waits to the last minute.
01:13:03.000 So, if you are a last-minute shopper, I'm sure that you can order this book, and you can get it for the person in your life that is anti-globalist, or get it for the political junkie in your life that wants to learn more about these people.
01:13:19.000 Control-a-garx.
01:13:27.000 Let's go to the chat right now.
01:13:30.000 She's back!
01:13:30.000 Yes, we are back.
01:13:31.000 Unfortunately, the internet crashed.
01:13:36.000 Someone is definitely trying to stifle her voice.
01:13:38.000 Yeah, that was very strange.
01:13:42.000 And then coming up in the next segment, we have a shareholder from M.M.T.L.P.
01:13:46.000 that's going to be talking about the financial crisis with M.M.T.L.P.
01:13:51.000 So let's see, GOP Congress, just to be clear, when California Lieutenant Governor mistook the Constitution age requirement at 40 instead of 35, she did it on purpose because Vivek is the only candidate under 40, a subtle hint to the idiots.
01:14:03.000 Yep.
01:14:06.000 Someone said, uh, Colorado and the gator jaws.
01:14:08.000 Yeah, we have Colorado tonight.
01:14:10.000 We have the Colorado map, Colorado flag, and the Democrat Party logo in the gator mouth tonight.
01:14:17.000 Uh, Rita said, the Loomer Report, Loomer Unleashed, and Laura Loomer on X are the best sources for truth, sources, and info on everything about the enemies of the American people, both foreign and domestic.
01:14:25.000 I believe we have Seamus back.
01:14:27.000 Yes, we do.
01:14:28.000 I'm back.
01:14:28.000 We can hear you.
01:14:30.000 So I don't know what happened.
01:14:31.000 Maybe the Kontroligarks are so desperate.
01:14:33.000 Maybe this is the duo that they really honestly think about in their nightmares.
01:14:39.000 And so who knows?
01:14:41.000 Maybe they cut our internet, but our internet cut out Seamus.
01:14:44.000 So maybe, who knows?
01:14:46.000 You know, you never know.
01:14:47.000 Crazier things have happened.
01:14:49.000 They're probably monitoring us and they're like, you know, God, we don't need Seamus and Laura teaming up to really educate people about our plan to subjugate the people.
01:14:58.000 It's so true.
01:15:00.000 They don't want you to read the book, so go out and get it.
01:15:02.000 They don't!
01:15:04.000 I just plugged it.
01:15:05.000 I told everybody that if they're a last minute holiday shopper like I am, I'm the worst.
01:15:09.000 I'm like, so bad.
01:15:10.000 I am so bad.
01:15:11.000 Oh, I know.
01:15:12.000 Me too.
01:15:12.000 I just, I'm the worst.
01:15:13.000 But I told everybody that they could probably get the book on Amazon, which is, you know, kind of funny since we're trashing Jeff Bezos and all, but whatever.
01:15:21.000 And they can get it other places too, right?
01:15:23.000 Where else can they get your book?
01:15:25.000 Yeah, they can go to controlagarksbook.com.
01:15:29.000 That has all the retailers that are not Amazon.
01:15:31.000 I mean, if you got to get a Christmas present, that's probably the easiest way, but there's a lot of other retailers that are good.
01:15:39.000 I mean, there's Powell Books and Books A Million and others.
01:15:42.000 Barnes and Noble?
01:15:45.000 Barnes & Noble.
01:15:47.000 I just looked them up.
01:15:48.000 BlackRock's got like a 10% stake, but what can you do?
01:15:52.000 I think there's another one I'm forgetting that is, it gives a chunk of the proceeds to local bookstores.
01:15:59.000 So it's in local bookstores.
01:16:01.000 Go to your local bookstore.
01:16:02.000 You could get it tomorrow.
01:16:04.000 And yeah, thank you so much, Laura.
01:16:06.000 Next time, I'm just going to have to come down and we'll do it in studio.
01:16:10.000 Yeah, we'll do that.
01:16:11.000 And right before the internet cut, I was asking you to talk about some of your investigations because a lot of people don't know, right, the people behind these amazing investigations in 2016 into the Clinton Foundation.
01:16:25.000 And the Clinton Cash Book that really took the nation by storm, and it was turned into an amazing documentary as well.
01:16:31.000 And also the Burisma investigation, and that came out of you and Peter Schweitzer's shop over at the Center for Government Accountability.
01:16:39.000 And so I would like you to just explain to people, you know, and talk about this organization that you're a part of, because many people don't know that you are one of the people responsible for breaking
01:16:51.000 Some of these Hunter Biden stories and some of these, you know, Biden crime corruption family stories that everybody is now talking about.
01:17:00.000 You're the guy, but you're the guy.
01:17:02.000 Yeah, I'm the guy.
01:17:03.000 I've worked with Peter for over a decade, actually since 2011.
01:17:08.000 So the first book I worked on for him was called Throw Them All Out.
01:17:11.000 That exposed the insider trading in Congress before anybody knew about the insider trading in Congress.
01:17:16.000 So we exposed stock queen Nancy Pelosi and her IPO deals with Visa.
01:17:22.000 Um, and, and that was like a huge, huge story.
01:17:24.000 That was back when 60 Minutes would work with us.
01:17:26.000 So we did a couple 60 Minutes.
01:17:28.000 We've got a, we, you know, in the past had a ton of front page New York Times stories and front page Washington Post before Trump upended everything.
01:17:37.000 And now nobody wants to work with us anymore.
01:17:40.000 And that really happened because of the Clinton cash book.
01:17:43.000 So I'm kind of the nerd that Peter Schweitzer throws a thousand pages of Clinton Foundation 990s to.
01:17:50.000 Like you, Laura, not a lot of people go through these boring documents.
01:17:54.000 I know.
01:17:55.000 Even when we're at dinner parties together.
01:17:56.000 It's fertile ground.
01:17:57.000 Seamus and I have a mutual friend who invited us to a barbecue up near the panhandle not too long ago.
01:18:06.000 We were hanging out.
01:18:08.000 Normal people would be hanging out, eating their food, and doing whatever they usually do at dinner parties.
01:18:15.000 Seamus and I were sitting in the corner talking about FEC reports.
01:18:19.000 We were just having conversations about all these financial reports because that's what nerds like us do at dinner parties.
01:18:26.000 We talk about the numbers.
01:18:29.000 Yeah, exactly.
01:18:30.000 So Schweitzer threw all the Clinton Foundation 990s at me and their tax returns.
01:18:36.000 And so I had to go row by row, line by line, because they don't make these reports, even OCR, that means searchable.
01:18:46.000 And so they don't make them OCR.
01:18:47.000 So I had to go line by line and copy, you know,
01:18:51.000 Uranium One, you know, donation to Clinton Foundation and Renaissance Capital was the $500,000 speech in Moscow that Bill Clinton gave.
01:19:01.000 And so once I had put its thousands of rows into a spreadsheet, location, amount, the person who paid the speaking fee, you know, and then I sorted them by country, by dollar amount, you know, Sony or Ericsson, a Swedish
01:19:16.000 A cell phone company gave $750,000 for one speech.
01:19:21.000 I believe that was the highest speech Bill Clinton got.
01:19:24.000 But sorting them and filtering them, eventually we're like, well, you know, what is this all about?
01:19:28.000 Why don't we go look at what Hillary Clinton is up to at the State Department?
01:19:31.000 And what do you know?
01:19:33.000 Erickson was about to be sanctioned for doing business with Iran and they avoided sanctions.
01:19:38.000 The Russia Uranium One speech, the Renaissance Capitol speech, happened in June of 2010, right around the time the State Department signed off on the uranium transfer to Russia.
01:19:49.000 And Hillary Clinton, as Secretary of State, had a key role in that.
01:19:55.000 That really blew the lid open on the Clinton Foundation for the Biden research.
01:19:59.000 I mean, you know, there have been some minor reports.
01:20:02.000 Nobody really followed up on the fact that the son of the vice president was going to work for a corrupt Ukrainian gas company.
01:20:09.000 We ended up actually sending one of our researchers to Devin Archer's trial in New York for the tribal bond.
01:20:17.000 I mean, a lot of people haven't heard about this tribal bond scheme where Hunter Biden's business partners ripped off an Indian tribe to the tune of like tens of tens of millions of dollars.
01:20:26.000 That's why Devin Archer is actually in legal hot water.
01:20:31.000 And at that trial, it was very fortuitous because they accidentally submitted an exhibit of it was called Rosemont Seneca Bohai.
01:20:40.000 This is really in the weed stuff here, but that was the joint Facebook to Rosemont Seneca.
01:20:46.000 It ties back to Facebook.
01:20:47.000 It's all intertwined, you know, and it's not even new.
01:20:50.000 This stuff goes back over a decade.
01:20:52.000 And it's interesting.
01:20:54.000 When I was doing my investigations as well, I found ties between Rosemont Seneca and the former general counsel of Facebook.
01:21:00.000 And so all these people are combined.
01:21:02.000 It's all one big incestuous circle.
01:21:04.000 Go ahead and continue.
01:21:05.000 I didn't mean to interrupt you.
01:21:05.000 I just want everyone to know.
01:21:07.000 It's so true.
01:21:08.000 This is old but breaking news because Peter Schweitzer is way too humble.
01:21:13.000 He's the best boss in the world.
01:21:14.000 He's such a gem.
01:21:15.000 He's way too humble to go out and brag about this stuff.
01:21:17.000 And I'm glad you asked because there's so many things that people just don't know.
01:21:20.000 So these bank records that were submitted for the Devon Archer trial, this was a huge breakthrough moment that nobody really knows how it happened.
01:21:28.000 But so our researcher, he was up in New York, he goes down to the exhibit, you know, as the trial's going on, he goes down to request some of the court documents, you know, they were being filed, Exhibit A, Exhibit B type thing.
01:21:42.000 And they had forgotten to redact or they had not quite redacted the bank records.
01:21:47.000 They were supposed to redact them.
01:21:48.000 So you wouldn't know that Hunter Biden was receiving $83,000 per month from Burisma.
01:21:54.000 They would have put a black line over Hunter Biden's name.
01:21:57.000 It said,
01:21:59.000 R.H.
01:22:00.000 Biden, Robert Hunter Biden, and it was showed $83,000 per month going into his account from Burisma.
01:22:07.000 So that was a huge breakthrough.
01:22:08.000 It actually led to some of the Kazakh money with this guy from Kazakhstan who gave Hunter Biden a bunch of money, ended up giving him a Porsche sports car.
01:22:18.000 And that's like that photo you see of Joe Biden in the Cafe Milano with these sketchy looking oligarchs with his son.
01:22:25.000 That was one of the big lies that we debunked about Joe Biden never meeting with his son's corrupt business partners.
01:22:32.000 And then with the China stuff, I mean, we broke the first Bohai Harvest billion and a half dollar private equity deal 13 days after Joe Biden flew with Hunter Biden on Air Force Two.
01:22:46.000 To China and Joe Biden met with Jonathan Lee, the Bohai Harvest guy who, you know, we found deep ties to Chinese intelligence from a lot of these Chinese businessmen who are pouring tens of millions of dollars into the Biden's pockets.
01:23:02.000 And I guess, I mean, I know you've got another guest.
01:23:04.000 The thing I would finish with here is that nobody is properly framing the bribery scandal around the Bidens that, you know, James Comer and
01:23:14.000 A lot of oversight people are falling into the Democrats' trap and falling into the trap that Team Biden has set, which is, here's the trap.
01:23:24.000 You haven't proven that Joe Biden got paid.
01:23:26.000 And while we can prove that a stream of benefits flowed to Joe, it actually doesn't matter if Joe Biden took the money directly.
01:23:34.000 18 U.S.C.
01:23:36.000 Section 201, this is the bribery statute, says anything of value, if you
01:23:42.000 Hunter Biden, James Biden,
01:23:58.000 Sarah Biden, even Ashley Biden, Krein, and her husband Howard Krein, they have all received things of value.
01:24:05.000 Even the grandchildren from Louis Freeh.
01:24:09.000 Louis Freeh puts $100,000 into the grandchildren's account.
01:24:12.000 That's related to the Romania deal.
01:24:14.000 So every Biden is receiving things of value, and Joe Biden is 100% giving official actions.
01:24:21.000 So it's case closed.
01:24:23.000 They don't need to do any more investigating.
01:24:25.000 They've got everything they need.
01:24:27.000 What's crazy too is that the reason why people may not be seeing you or even Peter Schweitzer anymore on Fox News is because you guys also did a really big investigation into China and the Chinese money and all of the people in our country in the highest levels that are compromised by China and you called out some very high-profile Republicans as well like Mitch McConnell and others and so I
01:24:52.000 I'm not speaking for you.
01:24:53.000 I'm not speaking for Peter Schweitzer.
01:24:56.000 But it's pretty obvious that they're on the Fox News blacklist.
01:24:59.000 It's pretty obvious that they're being retaliated against because you used to see Peter Schweitzer on Fox News as a regular.
01:25:05.000 They used to always promote his books.
01:25:06.000 They used to always have him on as a corruption expert when it came to talking about money that went into the Biden crime family.
01:25:14.000 But ever since you guys published that book, I believe it's called Red Handed, right?
01:25:18.000 Is that the name of the book?
01:25:18.000 It's called Red Handed?
01:25:20.000 Yeah, red-handed.
01:25:21.000 How American elites get rich helping China win.
01:25:24.000 Yeah, red-handed.
01:25:26.000 Secret Empires was the one that really blew the doors off of the Elaine Chao and Mitch McConnell, how they got $20 million from her father, who runs Formos Shipping Group, which is like deeply tied to the Chinese Communist Party.
01:25:39.000 It's basically like a military shipbuilding company is what Elaine Chao's father does.
01:25:44.000 Her sister, Angela Chao, is on the board.
01:25:47.000 Yes, Elaine Chao is super tight with Rupert Murdoch.
01:25:49.000 That's pretty much all I would say.
01:25:50.000 Of course, yeah, so they're all tied in and we already know that Rupert Murdoch is anti-Trump and, you know, in his own discovery documents with the Dominion case, he said, quote, we need to make, we need to un-person Donald Trump, we need to make Donald Trump a non-person.
01:26:07.000 That's what he said.
01:26:08.000 That's what he said in the documents.
01:26:09.000 And we already know that Donald Trump is anti, you know, well, he's been very tough on China, right?
01:26:15.000 And so he's anti allowing China to completely dominate the U.S.
01:26:19.000 economy.
01:26:20.000 And that just doesn't sit well with people like Mitch McConnell.
01:26:24.000 It didn't sit well with people like Kevin McCarthy.
01:26:27.000 It doesn't sit well with people like Rupert Murdoch.
01:26:29.000 All these people are friends.
01:26:30.000 They all go to the same dinner parties.
01:26:32.000 And so it's pretty unfortunate, right, that the people who are breaking the Clinton Foundation scandals, people like you and Peter Schweitzer who are breaking the Burisma scandals, are now being punished, it seems like, by Fox News.
01:26:44.000 So if anybody from Fox is watching this, we know the gig's up.
01:26:49.000 You guys have got to put Peter Schweitzer and Seamus back on Fox because they need to.
01:26:54.000 They need to bring this information to the people, and I don't really encourage people to watch Fox News, but the reality is, unfortunately, still millions of people watch it.
01:27:01.000 That's why I have my show, right?
01:27:03.000 And it's, uh, it's counter programming.
01:27:05.000 You know, I noticed
01:27:06.000 I do my show during the primetime hour because it's a form of counter-programming, a form of resistance to the mainstream media.
01:27:13.000 But still, they should not be... It's really sad when so-called conservative media is now blacklisting people, or it appears to be blacklisting the leading experts, right?
01:27:24.000 And the leading researchers and people who are breaking these stories from being on TV to tell the American people the truth.
01:27:30.000 It's just another form of election interference by the corporate media as far as I'm concerned.
01:27:36.000 Yeah, well, so Chapter 7 is called Mainstream Mind Control.
01:27:40.000 So I'll just finish on the book real quick.
01:27:43.000 I'm glad you brought up this issue of the mainstream media, because the mainstream media is totally corrupt.
01:27:48.000 It's owned by the same six corporations, BlackRock and others are huge stakeholders.
01:27:55.000 You know, so chapter by chapter, it's got energy control, food control, financial control, that's the BlackRock chapter.
01:28:01.000 Soros gets his own chapter.
01:28:03.000 And so chapter, it's actually, chapter eight is mainstream mind control.
01:28:08.000 And that is like the best, one of the best chapters talking about how crooked the mainstream media is.
01:28:14.000 After that is dystopian present, and that is all about the big tech guys.
01:28:19.000 And then finally, the endgame chapter is about China.
01:28:22.000 And really what the end goal of the Kontrologarks is to make the U.S.
01:28:27.000 more like China.
01:28:28.000 They don't see China as an adversary, obviously.
01:28:31.000 They don't want to decouple, obviously.
01:28:34.000 They actually love China.
01:28:35.000 They love how, quote, efficient it is or how good China can, quote, mobilize resources.
01:28:41.000 They use all these euphemisms for really what they want is like fascism,
01:28:45.000 Authoritarianism, you know, surveillance cameras on every street corner.
01:28:51.000 And End Goal is a social credit score where they can make people like you, Laura, people like me, total, like, outcasts from society, like a different caste system.
01:29:01.000 And they have.
01:29:02.000 They did it to me.
01:29:02.000 And they have.
01:29:03.000 I know they were trying to do it to others as well.
01:29:06.000 So, Seamus, it's been so great having you on.
01:29:08.000 I have the book.
01:29:09.000 You gave me a signed copy, luckily, when we were hanging out.
01:29:12.000 So I highly recommend it.
01:29:13.000 Great book.
01:29:15.000 We've been meaning to get you on the show for a while now, and again, look, for all you last-minute Christmas shoppers or even procrastinators who didn't get people gifts for Hanukkah, you can still get your gifts.
01:29:27.000 I know Hanukkah's over.
01:29:28.000 I know that Christmas is in four days.
01:29:30.000 But again, Controlagarks, exposing the billionaire class, their secret deals, and the globalist plot to dominate your life by Seamus Brunner.
01:29:37.000 You can get it at all pretty much major bookstores.
01:29:40.000 You can get it on Amazon.
01:29:41.000 You can get it at Barnes & Noble.
01:29:42.000 You can get it at your local bookstore.
01:29:44.000 So, where can people follow you on social media if they want to read more of your work and follow all of your investigations?
01:29:53.000 Well, thank you so much.
01:29:54.000 It's at Seamus Bruner.
01:29:56.000 It's S-E-A-M-U-S-B-R-U-N-E-R.
01:30:00.000 All platforms.
01:30:03.000 While we still have free speech, but I've got the telegram set up.
01:30:07.000 I love following you on all your platforms, Laura.
01:30:09.000 Thank you.
01:30:10.000 Of course, thank you.
01:30:12.000 So we'll be in touch, and anytime you have any breaking news about any of your investigations, especially going into 2024, be sure you let me know, because you will always have a home at Lumer Unleashed, and we will never blacklist you or Peter Schweitzer.
01:30:28.000 Awesome, thank you.
01:30:29.000 All right, have a good Happy New Year and rest of your holidays.
01:30:32.000 Yeah, you as well.
01:30:33.000 Happy New Year, Merry Christmas, and we'll see you soon.
01:30:38.000 All right.
01:30:39.000 Thank you.
01:30:41.000 So that's Seamus.
01:30:43.000 Great guy.
01:30:44.000 Does amazing work.
01:30:45.000 Does amazing work with Peter Schweitzer.
01:30:46.000 The book is phenomenal.
01:30:48.000 I have a copy.
01:30:48.000 It's by my bed.
01:30:49.000 I haven't finished reading it, but it's really amazing.
01:30:54.000 I'm almost done, and the book is just phenomenal.
01:30:57.000 So I brought it on a plane with me when I flew to Alabama for the GOP primary debate.
01:31:06.000 And my producer was like, oh, what book is that?
01:31:07.000 And I said, oh, you know, it's a really interesting book.
01:31:10.000 You should read it.
01:31:11.000 And my producer now wants a copy, too, so everyone's going to want a copy.
01:31:15.000 It's a very good book.
01:31:16.000 I highly recommend all of you read it.
01:31:17.000 We're going to have another guest coming up soon.
01:31:20.000 His name is Drew Diligence, and he's going to be talking about a crazy scandal.
01:31:26.000 Really, just a really shocking story that I don't really feel is getting enough attention, in my personal opinion.
01:31:36.000 We're running a few minutes behind schedule in terms of the interview, but we will have him on momentarily.
01:31:43.000 He's going to be talking about the MMTLP financial scandal momentarily, but before we get to that, we are going to do a quick commercial break for our sponsor, Gold Co.

01:32:24.000 So, as you know, we are dealing with a lot of censorship in our society.
01:32:30.000 We also have a lot of debanking and financial blacklisting, as we've talked about extensively on the show.
01:32:36.000 So,
01:32:37.000 The digital dollar up until now, or the CBDC, had been nothing but a headline, and right now things are developing at a rapid pace.
01:32:43.000 It's starting with a sweeping executive order within the Biden administration, and now central banks are even hiring for the development of these digital currencies.
01:32:53.000 And so here's the thing, a digital dollar can be used to track your purchases, control what you buy, and even
01:32:59.000 Seize or freeze your assets.
01:33:01.000 Okay, it's not good You're going to be controlled by the government and you're gonna have what we now have as a we're seeing as a Chinese social credit score system something that Seamus was trying to touch on during this interview as well That's why it's critical that you protect your money with precious metals like gold and silver And it's why I've partnered with the top rated precious metals company Gold Co because they're a great company with an amazing reputation and

01:34:07.000 So again, that is loomerlikesgold.com and let them know that Laura Loomer sent you.
01:34:15.000 So as I was talking about earlier, we're getting our other guest connected right now.
01:34:22.000 Lots going on.
01:34:24.000 You may have heard about this story, maybe you haven't heard about it because really there hasn't been a lot of coverage about it and I honestly find it to be kind of shocking because when I saw this, I saw this for the first time on Tuesday, okay, when I was getting ready for my show and I was scrolling through Twitter and I saw Charles Payne from Fox News posted this and he was like, oh hello Congress and I opened up the thread and I read it
01:34:50.000 And it's just really crazy.
01:34:52.000 It's a crazy story.
01:34:54.000 And I didn't realize that so many people were paying attention to what I had posted.
01:34:58.000 And then shareholders who have actually directly been affected by this scandal started reaching out to me during my live show this last Tuesday.
01:35:09.000 And they wanted me to highlight the story.
01:35:11.000 And it was pretty insane because I didn't realize how many of these shareholders from MMTLP were actually followers of mine.
01:35:19.000 Looking for a voice because they're having a hard time getting people in the media to actually highlight the story and over the last 12 months really the situation has been unfolding in the stock market and shockingly it has left over 65,000 families investments frozen and now it has raised all kinds of questions related to regulatory oversight
01:35:40.000 And joining me tonight to discuss the situation and how it could potentially affect the investments of anyone with a dollar in the U.S.
01:35:46.000 stock market is Drew Diligent.
01:35:49.000 So, Drew, thank you so much for joining me tonight.
01:35:52.000 It's a pleasure to have you.
01:35:53.000 And we're really looking forward to you sharing your insight on this scandal.
01:35:59.000 That's what I'm calling it.
01:36:00.000 It's a scandal.
01:36:01.000 It's financial terrorism in my opinion.
01:36:04.000 And I'm really shocked that the mainstream media isn't talking about this more.
01:36:08.000 And it's been kind of under wraps in terms of how involved Congress has been in these last few weeks.
01:36:14.000 But apparently there are some members of Congress who have gotten involved and we're going to talk about this.
01:36:18.000 So how are you doing tonight?
01:36:20.000 I'm doing very well, Laura.
01:36:21.000 How are you?
01:36:23.000 I'm doing well.
01:36:24.000 So I really honestly was not too familiar with this and I got in touch with you and I started reading all of the comments in my chat on Tuesday and it was distracting because I was reading the chat and I noticed that everybody started spamming the chat.
01:36:39.000 With MMTLP and I was like, what is MMTLP?
01:36:42.000 And I realized, oh yeah, that's what I was tweeting about earlier today and I didn't really know too much about it and I started reading more and I just felt that this story was so egregious and so many people have been negatively impacted by it that I wanted to have you on to talk about this because I think that it deserves more attention.
01:37:00.000 So, can you just give the viewers kind of a brief Cliff Notes overview of what has happened and what's going on, and why anybody who is invested in the U.S.
01:37:11.000 stock market should be worried about this?
01:37:14.000 So, first of all, I want to thank you very much for having me here tonight.
01:37:18.000 It means the world to so many people, so thank you so much.
01:37:23.000 I want to give you a little bit of background first.
01:37:26.000 There was a company called Torchlight Energy Resources.
01:37:30.000 And they're an oil and gas explorations company.
01:37:33.000 And in early in 2021, if you remember during COVID, the prices of oil at one point went negative.
01:37:40.000 So Torchlight wanted to find a way to create shareholder value, and they started exploring their strategic options.
01:37:49.000 There was a company in Canada by the name of Metamaterials that wanted to get listed on the NASDAQ.
01:37:58.000 So Metamaterials reached out to Torchlight to orchestrate a reverse merger which would allow Metamaterials to trade on the Nasdaq and at the same time create shareholder value for Torchlight Energy Resources shareholders.
01:38:13.000 Metamaterials did not want to be in the oil and gas exploration business.
01:38:19.000 So what ended up happening was they took the assets of Torchlight Energy Resources, which is 134,000 contiguous gross acres in the Oro Grande Basin,
01:38:33.000 And they took those assets and spun them off into a Series A Preferred Share Dividend.
01:38:39.000 What was supposed to happen was either those assets would be spun out into another company or they would sell, which would pay the shareholders.
01:38:48.000 Now, this dividend was never supposed to be made tradable.
01:38:53.000 Fast forward, this was June 2021 when this took place.
01:38:57.000 In October of 2021, all of a sudden, people opened their accounts and noticed that MMTLP was a ticker symbol that was assigned to this Series A Preferred Share Dividend and that it was trading.
01:39:12.000 Nobody knows how it happened because it was against the wishes of the company that issued the dividend.
01:39:18.000 CEO at the time, John Berta, reached out to OTC Markets, where the security was trading, and said, this is not authorized.
01:39:27.000 OTC Markets turned around and told John Berta, you need to take this up with FINRA.
01:39:32.000 John Berta reached out to FINRA and FINRA told him, you're not the CEO of the company anymore, so you don't have any standing to bring this up to us.
01:39:41.000 So this thing traded for over a year.
01:39:45.000 Now, in July of 2022, Metamaterials issued an S-1, which stated that the company planned on taking these assets and spinning them off into a privately-held, publicly-reporting company by the name of Nextbridge Hydrocarbons.
01:40:08.000 Not a tradable company, not supposed to be tradable.
01:40:10.000 They filed four S1s, they went through four revisions of their S1, starting in July, and finally in November of 2022, the SEC had no further comments, so a notice of effectiveness was filed, so that the spin-out could then be effectuated.
01:40:28.000 Now, what was supposed to happen was on December 12th,
01:40:36.000 The trading was supposed to stop.
01:40:38.000 There is a timeline on my Twitter account and it very clearly shows that on December 6th, FINRA released a corporate action notice that stated that the investing public had until the 12th to close their positions.
01:40:54.000 On December 7th,
01:40:57.000 Jeff Mendel, Vice President of OTC Markets, goes on a broadcast and informs the entire investing public that we have until December 12th to close our positions.
01:41:09.000 FINRA released another corporate action the following date stating the same.
01:41:14.000 In that interim time period between December 6th and December 9th, every single major U.S.
01:41:20.000 broker dealer informed their clients that inquired that we had until December 12th
01:41:26.000 To close our positions only for us to wake up on December 9th and discover that we were halted and I sent you a clip of the vice president of OTC markets.
01:41:39.000 I don't know if you want to go to it or not.
01:41:44.000 Absolutely.
01:41:45.000 I think it's very disturbing, some of this information that you're sharing.
01:41:50.000 And it's just shocking that they could get away with things like this.
01:41:54.000 I know we have a clip, and you sent me this clip earlier, and I want to play the clip for the viewers so that they can get a better idea of what you're talking about.
01:42:05.000 And so we're going to play this clip.
01:42:08.000 We're getting it pulled up right now, and this really kind of explains a lot of what you were just talking about.
01:42:14.000 And then, of course, after we play the clip, I want to get your, uh, get your get your feedback on the clip and kind of your impression of it.
01:42:21.000 Go ahead and play the clip.
01:42:23.000 Basically, per FINRA's corporate action, basically what that means is MMTLP is being deleted as a ticker after the trading day on the 12th, so it's deleted on the 13th.
01:42:40.000 And so that means that you no longer are reporting a trade in MMTLP.
01:42:47.000 After that date.
01:42:48.000 And so, I think it's spinning up into NexBridge, hydrocarbons?
01:42:54.000 Something along those lines.
01:42:57.000 As far as where that trades and how that trades, I'm not 100% sure right now.
01:43:04.000 But what I can say, though, is MMTLP, as of the end of trading on the 12th, will no longer be on the OTC markets.
01:43:14.000 And that's the most important point to come across here.
01:43:16.000 If you are holding these shares on the OTC markets, guys, again, end of trading on the 12th.
01:43:22.000 It's coming off of the OTC.
01:43:25.000 There's also a deadline that I saw in this press release of the 12th as well.
01:43:30.000 So any shareholders on record as of the 12th will be involved in this Nextbridge hydrocarbons transaction.
01:43:37.000 So the 12th, obviously, the most important date.
01:43:42.000 So they said the 12th, but the controversy here is that they halted, right, on the 9th.
01:43:48.000 So those were his own words, and that is going to be used against him.
01:43:53.000 I don't know, what do you think about that?
01:43:55.000 I mean, it's pretty cut and dry, right?
01:43:58.000 It's pretty cut and dry.
01:44:00.000 It's very simple.
01:44:01.000 This was December 7th.
01:44:03.000 The halt came on December 9th, and the halt was unforeseen.
01:44:07.000 And because of that, this halt caused short positions to be unresolved, fails to deliver to go uncured, and millions of other what are believed to be counterfeit shares that are believed to exist to now be carried over into what is a private non-trading company.
01:44:27.000 Subsequently, because there are so many additional shares above and beyond that legally authorized amount, there is a significant, massive amount of people, like you've said, over 65,000 families that don't have access to their money, they've been deprived of their rights to a free and fair market, and they haven't even been delivered their shares in the private company.
01:44:50.000 It has caused a mess, and that's pretty much the long and short of it.
01:44:55.000 So what reasons have they given for the halt and what exactly is the SEC doing about this?
01:45:02.000 So back in March, on March 16th, FINRA released an FAQ to the investing public.
01:45:11.000 It has since been debunked every which way imaginable.
01:45:15.000 But one of the things that they stated was that they halted it because they were protecting unsuspecting buyers that would have bought on the 9th and the 12th.
01:45:26.000 Which doesn't make any sense because the communications that we got from our brokers clearly spelled out that this was supposed to be position close only on the 9th and the 12th, which means no new buyers.
01:45:40.000 That last two days, obviously, the 9th and 12th never happened, caused short positions to go into the private company, and we've been stuck ever since.
01:45:51.000 So what you're saying then is you've basically been stuck for an entire year, you and 65,000 other American families.
01:45:59.000 Those are families and so that's a lot of people.
01:46:02.000 Those are actual families and when you imagine how many people are within a family,
01:46:06.000 Just think of how many Americans this is actually impacting.
01:46:10.000 These people have been stuck for over a year without their money and their shares.
01:46:14.000 And so, how has this personally affected you, and how is this impacting and affecting these families?
01:46:20.000 It's probably upwards of over 100,000 people if we're talking about 65,000 families.
01:46:26.000 Depending on the size of the family.
01:46:27.000 Maybe even more.
01:46:28.000 Absolutely.
01:46:29.000 Absolutely.
01:46:30.000 It's been devastating.
01:46:33.000 You know, thankfully, I'm okay, but I've seen some really devastating consequences left in the wake of this situation.
01:46:41.000 We've seen homes be lost to foreclosures, people have gotten divorced, people have had their savings wiped out, stress-related illness, and in one case, two little girls in the state of Arizona no longer have someone to call daddy.
01:46:58.000 And as the father of a four-year-old little girl, I can't tell you what that does.
01:47:03.000 Um, my understanding, it was shortly after the halt.
01:47:23.000 And that's why we're here, and that's why we're fighting.
01:47:26.000 Not only to reach a resolution that's fair to the people that are suffering, but at the same time to make sure that something like this doesn't happen anymore.
01:47:34.000 There's obviously a gap somewhere, and we're here to fight to make sure that it gets fixed.
01:47:41.000 Yeah, and I know that you mentioned Arizona, and you said that Congressman Eli Crane is one of the congressmen that has gotten involved in this.
01:47:48.000 What other members of Congress have gotten involved?
01:47:50.000 We have a letter, I know that you sent me a letter earlier, that is a letter that was really signed by several members of Congress, not a ton, when you look at all the members that are in Congress, but who exactly has been receptive to
01:48:04.000 So...
01:48:16.000 The first person to put out a letter for us was Congressman Eli Crane.
01:48:21.000 Our community, we have a community of about 2,000 people or so, 2,000 to 3,000 people.
01:48:27.000 We broke off into state groups and we started rallying to our congressional representatives for help here.
01:48:36.000 The Arizona State Group was the first one to produce a measurable result with Congressman Eli Crane.
01:48:44.000 He put out a letter for us.
01:48:46.000 Shortly after that, 15 members of the House Committee on Financial Services, mainly Republicans, also put out a letter on our behalf.
01:48:57.000 But since then, we've also seen Congresswoman Norma Torres, Senator Crapo, David Valadao, Jared Huffman, Vicente Gonzalez, and Josh Harder all put out letters on our behalf.
01:49:10.000 And there is a major effort underway now to have an open letter that is hopefully going to be signed by dozens of congressional representatives, if not over a hundred, we hope, which will
01:49:26.000 Hopefully carry a very powerful message, ask some very powerful questions, and be impossible for the SEC to ignore.
01:49:33.000 Who do you say has been the most helpful, though?
01:49:38.000 Because anybody can sign their name to a letter, right?
01:49:40.000 It doesn't really take much effort to do that.
01:49:42.000 Who is your biggest fighter right now, would you say, in Congress?
01:49:48.000 Honestly, we've had such tremendous help from Pete Sessions.
01:49:53.000 We've had tremendous help from Rep Ralph Norman.
01:49:57.000 There's a gentleman in the state of West Virginia.
01:50:00.000 His name is Chris Rose.
01:50:01.000 He's running for state Senate.
01:50:03.000 He was running on the federal level.
01:50:06.000 He was instrumental in opening a lot of doors for us as well.
01:50:12.000 That's really nice.
01:50:13.000 I'm happy to hear that you found some advocates at least.
01:50:17.000 How many people within your community are on social media and are these professional traders or are these just everyday people?
01:50:25.000 Ordinary Americans?
01:50:26.000 Yeah, as I said before, there's about 2,000 to 3,000 people and they come from all walks of life.
01:50:31.000 We're talking about first responders, we're talking about teachers, we're talking about retirees, and we're also talking about military veterans.
01:50:39.000 And this is something I'd like to spend a minute talking about.
01:50:42.000 Yeah, go ahead.
01:50:44.000 Out of our 2,000 to 3,000 shareholder group, we've discovered roughly 140 military veterans with over $12 million
01:50:53.000 of their money frozen in this situation.
01:50:56.000 If you take that line and you extrapolate it outwards for upwards of 65,000 shareholders, you're talking about thousands of military veterans with up to a half a billion dollars of their money frozen.
01:51:10.000 And I just want to draw attention to one name, if I may.
01:51:13.000 His name is Lieutenant Colonel Alan Bradshaw.
01:51:17.000 Lieutenant Colonel Alan Bradshaw flew Marine One for two presidents
01:51:22.000 Ronald Reagan and George H.W.
01:51:24.000 Bush.
01:51:24.000 If you've ever seen a picture of Ronald Reagan outside of Marine One, you might notice the pilot that's smiling gleefully at the camera.
01:51:31.000 He's a handsome guy, too.
01:51:33.000 That is Lieutenant Colonel Alan Bradshaw.
01:51:35.000 And this has been devastating to him, just as it's been devastating to everybody who's been stuck in this thing.
01:51:42.000 But the people come from all walks of life.
01:51:44.000 It sounds devastating.
01:51:47.000 What have the brokers said to people who have asked them about where their money and their shares are?
01:51:51.000 Especially the guy on that interview that said that people had until the 12th to get their money out.
01:51:59.000 Yeah, so the guy on the interview is actually the vice president of OTC Markets, where this was trading.
01:52:06.000 We inquired with our brokers after this halt, and they basically have all given us different stories.
01:52:14.000 What we're supposed to be able to do is transfer our shares to the transfer agent, which basically directly registers the shares in your name.
01:52:24.000 The problem is that these brokerages are giving us the runaround.
01:52:28.000 They're saying, yeah, it's going to take six to eight weeks.
01:52:31.000 Yeah, it's going to cost something when the S1 clearly states it shouldn't cost you anything.
01:52:35.000 And then people pay the freight to get their shares transferred.
01:52:39.000 They say it takes six to eight weeks, and then on the third or fourth week, they kick your shares back saying that your transfer has been terminated.
01:52:47.000 It has been really, there has been a real breakdown of continuity amongst the brokers, and I just want to point one out in particular.
01:52:56.000 Fidelity.
01:52:57.000 For some strange reason, Fidelity has sent 1099Bs
01:53:04.000 You're a Fidelity shareholder.
01:53:23.000 You get halted on the 9th, your money is frozen, and now they want you to pay capital gains taxes on it.
01:53:28.000 And Fidelity is the only brokerage in the United States so far that we know that has done this.
01:53:35.000 And just to kind of go back to the devastation that this has caused, I want to tell you a quick story about a gentleman named Juan.
01:53:42.000 Juan has a 14 year old daughter who just underwent chemotherapy treatments because she was diagnosed with stage 4 lupus.
01:53:50.000 Juan is staring down the barrel of a $250,000 medical bill and to add insult to injury, Fidelity is his broker.
01:53:59.000 So not only is his money frozen,
01:54:01.000 But they're actually trying to force him to pay capital gains taxes on his investment that he never made a penny on.
01:54:07.000 And that just shows you the lack of continuity and regulatory oversight amongst the brokers.
01:54:13.000 Yeah, it sounds devastating.
01:54:15.000 It sounds like people's lives are just being completely destroyed over this.
01:54:19.000 Which leads me to my next question.
01:54:22.000 Has there been any lawsuits filed over this?
01:54:24.000 Are there any ongoing efforts to pursue litigation?
01:54:30.000 Yeah, there have been five different legal efforts in five different states.
01:54:34.000 Actually, now there's a new one in Florida from Steamroller.
01:54:40.000 California, Georgia, Florida, Washington, and in the state of New York, a petition was filed under CPLR Section 3102, which basically allows you to do discovery before filing a claim against anyone so that you can ascertain who it is you have to file a claim against.
01:54:59.000 All of these legal actions are simply seeking transparency from FINRA.
01:55:05.000 They're not asking largely for monetary damages.
01:55:09.000 We just want answers.
01:55:11.000 We just want to know how many shares were sold to the investing public.
01:55:15.000 It's a simple share count.
01:55:17.000 And not only has FINRA refused to provide a share count to this point,
01:55:21.000 But what they've done is they fought every single legal action that is simply calling on them to be transparent.
01:55:27.000 If you think about it... And if you can... Yeah, if you can too, just because not everybody... This is a political show, right?
01:55:33.000 And so I don't know if everybody really knows what FINRA is.
01:55:37.000 If you can go ahead and explain to the viewers watching who may be hearing this information for the first time what FINRA is.
01:55:45.000 Yeah, so the SEC, the Securities Exchange Commission, really has ultimate oversight.
01:55:50.000 But they delegate some of the responsibilities, especially with respect to stocks that trade on the OTC.
01:55:56.000 They delegate a lot of those responsibilities to FINRA.
01:56:00.000 FINRA is supposed to have the oversight.
01:56:02.000 They are the regulator.
01:56:04.000 They're also an SRO, which means that they have absolute immunity.
01:56:09.000 And anytime someone tries to sue them, they claim absolute immunity.
01:56:13.000 Did you lose me?
01:56:15.000 I can hear you.
01:56:16.000 I, for some reason, uh, your image is off.
01:56:18.000 I can, I can hear you.
01:56:19.000 I can hear you.
01:56:20.000 You're still there.
01:56:20.000 That's okay.
01:56:21.000 You're better looking than I am.
01:56:22.000 I can hear you.
01:56:22.000 No, I can hear you.
01:56:24.000 Go ahead.
01:56:24.000 I can still hear you.
01:56:25.000 Yeah.
01:56:26.000 So the, the FINRA has immunity, um, but they're basically, they are the regulator that is tasked with overseeing all of this.
01:56:35.000 And every time we go after them with a legal effort, they say, nope, we have absolute immunity.
01:56:40.000 The crazy thing about this is I shouldn't have to sue the United States Army to protect me against a foreign invasion.
01:56:47.000 We are literally having to take legal actions against FINRA to do the very thing that they are supposed to do, and they haven't done.
01:56:55.000 Well, as you've probably seen, our country is pretty dysfunctional right now.
01:56:59.000 What has FINRA or the SEC said in response to all of this so far?
01:57:02.000 Okay, so...
01:57:07.000 Gary Gensler, so first of all, FINRA released two FAQs.
01:57:12.000 The first one was back in March, that was debunked.
01:57:14.000 The second one was released in early November.
01:57:17.000 And for people watching, just because this is your jargon, right?
01:57:22.000 For people watching who don't know what an FAQ is, explain.
01:57:25.000 Just because we have some people who may not really understand the terminology watching.
01:57:30.000 I just want to make sure that everybody can understand, you know, what they're hearing.
01:57:34.000 Yeah, so FINRA has been getting a lot of questions, both from Congress and from the investing public.
01:57:40.000 And this is the first time that they've ever had to publish an FAQ on a specific security.
01:57:46.000 They've never had to do this before.
01:57:48.000 Now they've done it twice.
01:57:49.000 And both times, those FAQs have been proven to be, I want to use the words, opaque.
01:57:59.000 Case in point, the second FAQ, the first FAQ was released in March and since March we had a bunch of letters from Congress come out because their FAQ didn't answer any questions and then again in November they released another FAQ which didn't tell us much
01:58:16.000 But what and what happened after that was we got even more letters from Congress and this gigantic open letter effort coming as well.
01:58:26.000 What FINRA did tell us in their FAQ is that there are 200, no I'm sorry, 2.65 million
01:58:34.000 Short shares that have been carried over into this private company and it doesn't make any sense because if this company begins paying dividends and let's say 10 years from now they pay they continue to pay dividends if the person on the short side of a transaction is supposed to pay whoever is on the long side of the transaction for the dividend.
01:58:55.000 So if the person on the short side of the transaction, let's say, is no longer with us, who's supposed to pay that dividend?
01:59:03.000 That's why short shares are typically not carried over into companies that are not tradable.
01:59:10.000 Now, Gary Gensler has appeared twice before two different committees of jurisdiction.
01:59:17.000 We're good to go.
01:59:35.000 We can't release any information on anything that may or may not have an investigation, but if you send me your requests, we can respond to you in writing with the data.
01:59:46.000 And we just found out yesterday or the day before via FOIA
01:59:51.000 That the response that Gary Gensler gave to Senator Crapo's inquiries stated, we can't release any information due to a quote-unquote active investigation.
02:00:02.000 It has been over a year, no charges have been filed against anyone, and they're still hiding under the cloak of this active investigation.
02:00:11.000 Alright, well, you know, I'm gonna play devil's advocate here for a minute and some people will say, you know, I don't know what you're complaining about because everybody knows that when you invest your money into the stock market, your return isn't guaranteed and that you could always run the risk of losing your entire investment.
02:00:29.000 So what do you have to say to someone who is listening to you say all of this right now?
02:00:34.000 Or is looking at this situation and all these people, these 65,000 Americans who have lost their money and the people that say, well you know when you invest in the stock market you run the risk of losing all your money.
02:00:44.000 What do you have to say to those people?
02:00:47.000 So I can appreciate the inherent risk that comes along with investing in the stock market.
02:00:51.000 If I invest in a company and the company goes bankrupt, that's on me.
02:00:56.000 If I invest in a company and the CEO of the company is indicted for laundering money for El Chapo, you know what, that kind of stuff happens.
02:01:05.000 But
02:01:06.000 If I invest in a security that is set to spin out, and the brokerage, the regulator, and the vice president of the market where it is trading all tell me that I have until December 12th to close my position, only for them to halt it on December 9th, within 48 hours of that statement being made, inherent risk is not supposed to mean
02:01:31.000 That everybody tells me that I have until the 12th to sell, only to wake up on the 9th and find out that I'm halted.
02:01:37.000 I'm sorry, I don't accept that as an answer for those reasons.
02:01:41.000 Yeah, I can understand where you're coming from.
02:01:43.000 How does this affect the United States stock market in general, would you say?
02:01:48.000 You know, that's a really good question.
02:01:51.000 It is... So, the issue at hand here is really the practice of naked shorting and selling counterfeit shares.
02:02:02.000 The security, we believe, was made tradable because there was a large imbalance in torchlight and they wanted to find a way to make this tradable so that they wouldn't have to cover short positions.
02:02:20.000 How it affects the broader market in general?
02:02:23.000 Even just a couple of months ago, Elon Musk was talking about how he suspected that there was
02:02:29.000 That there was some abusive short selling going on within his own security.
02:02:37.000 The fact of the matter is that it is believed that I can tell you now they didn't just wake up one day and decide they were going to do this to one security and they were never going to touch any other security.
02:02:48.000 If you have a dollar.
02:02:49.000 In any security in the United States stock market, you are at risk.
02:02:54.000 Now, the difference between this situation and those other situations is that we are actually frozen in time, which means that we can actually get the share count, get the data, ascertain the imbalance, and stop something like this from ever happening again.
02:03:09.000 But as long as these practices continue to go on on Wall Street, your 401k, your IRA, your investments, your savings, all of them are at risk.
02:03:20.000 So, you're in touch with members of Congress right now.
02:03:23.000 What is the next step or where does it currently stand with actions that are being taken by members of Congress?
02:03:29.000 Do you have any new updates?
02:03:30.000 Because this has been going on for 12 months now and obviously, you know, Congress moves slow.
02:03:36.000 But have you heard anything recent?
02:03:39.000 What is the most recent update you can give our viewers from Congress and where this stands currently?
02:03:44.000 So, in our community, there's a tremendous amount of people doing a lot of brilliant work.
02:03:51.000 Richard has done an just obscene amount of emailing and outreach.
02:03:56.000 We've done tons of Zoom calls.
02:03:59.000 We've had people like Anna and Matt go to D.C.
02:04:02.000 with groups of others, like Jen and just so many others to name, gone to D.C.
02:04:08.000 and really rallied this to get our voices heard.
02:04:12.000 We've got something we call The Compound.
02:04:14.000 They've set up over 100 Zoom meetings.
02:04:17.000 And where we're at right now is we are waiting.
02:04:20.000 Today was actually the close of a signing period for the open letter that I referenced that was coming out of a congressional member's office.
02:04:28.000 This letter is going to have some serious pointed questions that they will not be able to get around.
02:04:35.000 So what I would say to you is just keep an eye out in the coming days for that open letter.
02:04:39.000 And God willing, if you'd like, maybe we'll have something else to discuss in the future when that open letter drops.
02:04:44.000 Absolutely and look this is an issue that's affecting a lot of people and people are losing their their livelihood and their their money just being their assets being frozen and it's terrible you said people have committed suicide over this there's people who have gone into foreclosure and you don't hear anything about this and I just think that that's really tragic and when I found out about it I thought that it was
02:05:08.000 You know, worth learning more about because I like to think of myself as a fairly informed individual, as a social media addict myself, right?
02:05:17.000 Somebody who's online all day looking at news and a consumer and a producer of news.
02:05:22.000 I had not heard about this at all.
02:05:24.000 I didn't see this anywhere.
02:05:25.000 And so I was shocked.
02:05:27.000 I was honestly shocked when it was brought to my attention and wanted to learn more about it after I saw so many people in the chat talking about it.
02:05:34.000 Because, you know, I like to follow up on stories and talk about stories that people in my chat are talking about.
02:05:41.000 And my mods and my producers said, oh, everybody's talking about this and you really got to look into it.
02:05:46.000 Everybody's putting MMTLP in the chat.
02:05:49.000 And I said, I don't know what that is.
02:05:50.000 I got to look into that.
02:05:52.000 I did.
02:05:53.000 Is there anything else that you want to add before I let you go?
02:05:57.000 So, as you mentioned, the MMTLP community has been real vigilant.
02:06:01.000 You're not the first one we've been able to get through to.
02:06:05.000 Actually, back in February, I was able to get through to Jon Stewart's show for the same reason, and he discussed this for a little while on his show.
02:06:15.000 But outside of that, we've had
02:06:18.000 A lot of support from C.V.
02:06:19.000 Payne, which is the, you know, you retweeted his tweet, and we had some support from James O'Keefe as well, but outside of that, yes, the coverage has not been exactly where we'd like it to be.
02:06:34.000 Before I go, first and foremost, I want to thank you so much again for your time.
02:06:39.000 I want to thank the MMTLP community, and if I may, I want to send a clear message to the SEC and FINRA
02:06:47.000 And let them know they need to work with Nextbridge Hydrocarbons to deliver a satisfactory resolution, and that resolution needs to account for the last year of pain that these people have suffered.
02:07:02.000 And we will not stop, and we will not go away until that fair, just, equitable resolution is delivered to us.
02:07:11.000 Ms.
02:07:12.000 Laura, thank you again so very much for having me.
02:07:14.000 Yeah, I want to keep you on for a couple minutes because the chat's just going crazy right now.
02:07:19.000 So I figured that we'll just go and your peeps are all in the chat right now.
02:07:24.000 So I really just want to make sure that we get to their questions.
02:07:27.000 And so, like I said, this is not my wheelhouse, right?
02:07:31.000 I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on this.
02:07:34.000 Obviously, I want to ask you the questions.
02:07:37.000 Somebody in the chat, Stock Vader said, Freedom of Information documents.
02:07:42.000 The regulators suspected fraud over a year ago.
02:07:44.000 They knew they did nothing.
02:07:46.000 What's shocking, it happens to all stocks.
02:07:50.000 This time they got caught.
02:07:52.000 Somebody else, Rumble Robbie said, SEC and FINRA were proven to know about the fraud involved in the trading for over a year before they halted it.
02:08:00.000 It was proven when we gained access to the FOIA emails.
02:08:02.000 So I know that you were just about to go, but it's okay.
02:08:07.000 You were my last guest for the show, and so we're going to go to questions in the chat anyway.
02:08:12.000 So we might as well just keep you longer so that you can talk about this.
02:08:16.000 Can you shed some light into these FOIA documents?
02:08:19.000 And I guess people are saying that there's multiple people in the chat saying that there's evidence that they knew about the fraud.
02:08:27.000 I assume, are they referring to OTC markets?
02:08:29.000 Or who are they specifically referring to when they talk about they, as they being aware?
02:08:36.000 Yeah, the SEC and FINRA, we FOIA documents back in April.
02:08:43.000 April 1st, actually, somewhere around there, we got a response from FOIA, which basically shows that for a full year before this halt, the SEC and FINRA were talking about this popping up on their fraud radar.
02:08:58.000 And nothing came of it and then when you fast forward and these emails were at the highest level of the SEC and FINRA and when you fast forward it actually the FOIA showed that on December 5th
02:09:13.000 Before the halt, they requested blue sheet data.
02:09:16.000 What is blue sheet data?
02:09:17.000 Blue sheet data is basically all of the trading information for a brokerage or a clearinghouse.
02:09:24.000 It says this client traded this many shares, that client traded that many shares, and so on and so on.
02:09:29.000 Now those blue sheets can kind of
02:09:32.000 Take some time to get back.
02:09:34.000 So we believe that once they saw, I think what we believe is they might have seen something in those blue sheets that led them to believe that this was going to cost a lot of people a lot of money to fix this situation before the spinout was effectuated.
02:09:50.000 So instead of holding the people accountable, they just hit the halt button and tried to sweep us under the rug.
02:09:56.000 What they didn't count on was that this community was going to act as seeds when they threw us in the dirt, and now we've grown trees with branches that are spreading towards justice.
02:10:08.000 But that's the long and short of it.
02:10:10.000 They knew about it a year ago, and they did nothing.
02:10:16.000 I want to go ahead and we have the letter loaded too for people to see because you referenced the letter to Congress and so we're going to put that up on the screen full screen for everybody to see it and I'll just read along with it.
02:10:29.000 This was a letter that...
02:10:32.000 That was one of the letters.
02:10:33.000 This one was in July.
02:10:35.000 This was in July and it was sent to Chairman Gensler and this was sent by Eli Crane, Congressman.
02:10:43.000 It says, Chairman Gensler and Chairman McHenry, I'm writing regarding an issue brought to my attention by my constituents regarding a corporate action.
02:10:53.000 And trading halt in the Series A preferred shares of Metamaterials Inc.
02:10:57.000 that traded under the symbol MMTLP.
02:10:59.000 My constituents believe that shares were sold illegally, leading to losses in their retirement savings.
02:11:06.000 In response to these allegations, I'm requesting from your offices a briefing regarding this matter, as well as what your offices are doing to prevent
02:11:12.000 Securities fraud at the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
02:11:16.000 My constituents are deeply distressed about this matter and have suffered greatly as a result of this trading.
02:11:21.000 I implore your prompt response and look forward to working with you on this pressing issue.
02:11:24.000 So that was sent by Eli Crane in July.
02:11:27.000 And then we have another letter that was sent on July 28th.
02:11:32.000 We'll get that pulled up full screen, too.
02:11:34.000 If you scroll down, we have the other letter, and that was signed by, you said, Pete Sessions.
02:11:39.000 I'm looking at the list here.
02:11:41.000 Congressman Bill Huizenga, Congressman Bill Posey here in Florida, Congresswoman Ann Wagner, Barry Loudermilk, Alex Mooney, John Rose, Brian Steele, William Timmons, Ralph Norman, Scott Fitzgerald, Dan Muser,
02:11:58.000 Mike Flood, Mike Lawler, Andy Ogles.
02:12:01.000 So yeah, you have several members of Congress.
02:12:05.000 Not a ton.
02:12:06.000 Yeah, not a ton.
02:12:09.000 But you have at least some support from members of Congress.
02:12:12.000 So that's good to see.
02:12:15.000 Let's go back to the chat and see if there's any more questions from people.
02:12:18.000 You can make the chat full screen.
02:12:21.000 Let's see.
02:12:22.000 Pull the chat up.
02:12:28.000 Status Pay wants to know, why does Gary Gensler and the SEC feel like they don't have to answer to congressional inquiries?
02:12:36.000 I think this kind of reminds me of their same response with the Sam Bankman-Fried FTX scandal too.
02:12:43.000 The head of the SEC just kind of feels like he doesn't have to respond to anybody.
02:12:48.000 And I think this isn't the first time that we've seen this.
02:12:50.000 Would you agree?
02:12:53.000 Gary Gensler is... Listen, if he ever gives up his career in regulating, he will have a fantastic career in tap dancing because he is just fantastic at tap dancing around inquiries and questions.
02:13:08.000 Yeah.
02:13:09.000 Let's see.
02:13:10.000 Someone said pure fraud.
02:13:12.000 So scroll down.
02:13:12.000 Keep going.
02:13:13.000 Right there.
02:13:14.000 Leave it there.
02:13:14.000 Pure fraud and FINRA covering it up.
02:13:16.000 Protect investors.
02:13:17.000 Do your job, FINRA.
02:13:19.000 Let's see what else.
02:13:21.000 Makan156, thank you for the super chat.
02:13:24.000 Thank you, Laura, for having us.
02:13:25.000 Please ask Andrew, where is Ari Rubenstein?
02:13:28.000 That's an inside joke, but yeah.
02:13:34.000 So, listen, the crux of the issue here is that these market makers... I've heard you speak about Ken Griffin before at Citadel.
02:13:45.000 Yeah, these market makers, they act as hedge funds at the same time, while they're supposed to be providing liquidity to the market.
02:13:56.000 They're supposed to make it easier for us to buy and sell shares.
02:14:00.000 When you are
02:14:02.000 A hedge fund market maker, you are now making bets on the stocks that you are supposed to be providing liquidity for, which just opens the door to a laundry list of conflicts of interest.
02:14:15.000 And Ari Rubinstein is the president of GTS, just like Ken Griffin is of Citadel.
02:14:22.000 Yeah, of course, everybody's familiar with with the Ken Griffin scandal as well.
02:14:28.000 And yeah, no, I had asked about that, because we see now that these people also are trying to get involved with their own political contributions.
02:14:37.000 And there was a rumor, there was a rumor that was speculating a couple months ago that Ken Griffin
02:14:44.000 He gave so much money to Ron DeSantis and was his top political donor because he apparently had a conversation with Ron DeSantis where Ron DeSantis promised him that he would become the chairman of the SEC.
02:15:01.000 I mean, to be honest, it's baffling to me.
02:15:03.000 So you can look that up.
02:15:05.000 You can look that up as well.
02:15:07.000 But that's why I asked about this because it seems like a lot of these guys are donating, right?
02:15:12.000 They want to donate to these people because, you can pull this up, we have a lot of stories here about Ken Griffin supporting him.
02:15:20.000 But yeah, there were some stories about that.
02:15:22.000 So I just think it's interesting because obviously these people are purchasing political access and political influence.
02:15:30.000 It's concerning, right?
02:15:31.000 It's very concerning because they're getting away with destroying people's livelihoods and it's always interesting to follow the money and to see who these people are contributing to.
02:15:42.000 Every presidential cycle and the little deals that they've made behind the scenes.
02:15:45.000 And that's why I noticed earlier you said that some lawsuits have been filed in Florida and that there's a lot of these shareholders that are from Florida.
02:15:54.000 Have you guys contacted Governor Ron DeSantis at all his office to get involved or Attorney General Ashley Moody?
02:16:01.000 And what has the response been from Ron DeSantis or Ashley Moody's office?
02:16:06.000 So the one of the lawsuits I want to point to was filed by Rosa Tawil, who is just one of the best people you could meet.
02:16:15.000 She really is.
02:16:16.000 It blows me away how just diligent she is and how much of a fighter she is.
02:16:22.000 And at one point, Rosa's
02:16:26.000 Rosa was waiting for a decision from the court for months, so we actually tried to rally Governor DeSantis to try and see if we could put some pressure on the judge just to make a ruling.
02:16:38.000 Not a ruling either way, but just, you know, maybe send a letter saying, I'm aware that in the Northern District of Florida this case is ongoing, and I encourage you to, you know, make a determination on it seasonably.
02:16:52.000 And we didn't get any, we really didn't get any reception whatsoever from Governor DeSantis's office.
02:17:04.000 So you have not heard from Governor Ron DeSantis's office?
02:17:09.000 Nope.
02:17:10.000 But you have contacted Governor Ron DeSantis's office?
02:17:13.000 Well, we contacted their office en masse, the same way we came for you, we came for him.
02:17:19.000 We wanted answers.
02:17:21.000 And how many times, when did you start contacting him, and how long have you been contacting Ron DeSantis about this matter?
02:17:27.000 Well, the case has since been ruled on, so we stopped reaching out to him about it, but there was a period of time for a solid
02:17:36.000 Three weeks where we call, I'm talking hundreds of phone calls a day.
02:17:41.000 I bet.
02:17:42.000 And they wouldn't get back to us with an answer.
02:17:45.000 Yeah, that seems to be a really common trend here in the state of Florida.
02:17:49.000 Now, Ron DeSantis really isn't taking anybody's phone calls anymore because he's in Iowa, in La La Land.
02:17:55.000 He seems to think he's going to be president.
02:17:58.000 We got another super chat from Anxiety Lord.
02:18:01.000 He said, thank you for bringing this incredibly important issue to light.
02:18:05.000 South Korea banned short selling because of naked shorting issues.
02:18:08.000 FINRA fraud.
02:18:10.000 TLP fiasco.
02:18:11.000 Alrighty.
02:18:12.000 Thank you for your super chat there.
02:18:14.000 And of course, if you all want to support my work and continue supporting independent journalism, you can submit your questions, send your superchats, or contribute online as well.
02:18:25.000 Let's see more questions.
02:18:28.000 Fraud committed against the American people by our own government agencies assigned to protect us.
02:18:32.000 Yep, that's that.
02:18:32.000 Gensler was appointed, then dark pool trading diabolically increased by 400% in less than three years.
02:18:40.000 FINRA halted to protect hedge funds who sit on the FINRA board.
02:18:47.000 It's true.
02:18:48.000 If you look at the Board of Governors of FINRA, they're all former hedge fund operators.
02:18:54.000 In my opinion, you should not be allowed to serve in public office for 10 years after you leave a position that you are serving in public office to govern, and vice versa.
02:19:08.000 It's the equivalent of somebody working at the FDA, and then the day after they step down, they go and work at Pfizer.
02:19:17.000 It's not rocket science to see what's happening there.
02:19:19.000 I think there should be a 10-year moratorium on situations like that.
02:19:24.000 Yeah.
02:19:26.000 Somebody else said, Kilkstrass is his name, said Ari was also on the board at FINRA during the halt.
02:19:34.000 Conflict of interest.
02:19:35.000 GNS is one of the market makers that got MMTLP trading.
02:19:40.000 GTS and yeah he all of a sudden after we started taking note of it he disappeared from FINRA's Board of Governors page and he hasn't tweeted I don't think anything since this halt.
02:19:52.000 Which is very strange.
02:19:54.000 Yeah somebody said MM TLP 600 million to 1 billion counterfeit shares sold to the public too expensive to pay the bills so flip the board upside down GameStop squeeze on steroids.
02:20:05.000 Yeah, so I want to talk about that.
02:20:07.000 There are all kinds of numbers out there.
02:20:10.000 We don't know how many counterfeit shares they're believed to exist.
02:20:15.000 We don't know how many.
02:20:16.000 That's why we're asking for a share count.
02:20:18.000 It's as simple as going to every brokerage with an auditor of some form to make sure that it's independent and free of any chicanery.
02:20:27.000 Let's go back to the chat again and get a few more questions.
02:20:29.000 If you have your questions, put your questions in the chat.
02:20:32.000 Obviously, there's a lot of questions coming in, so when you submit a Super Chat, your question gets priority.
02:20:57.000 While you're going through questions, I do want to send a very special thank you to any congressional member, Republican, Democrat.
02:21:05.000 This is a bipartisan issue.
02:21:08.000 People have been harmed.
02:21:09.000 People have been wrong.
02:21:11.000 In my opinion, if you stand up and you take a stand for your constituents that have been affected by this, you are rising up to that fundamental purpose for which your office and government was originally created.
02:21:23.000 And for me, it's telltale signs who is standing up and doing the right thing and who is not.
02:21:30.000 Republican or Democrat, this is bipartisan.
02:21:33.000 We just need support so that we can reach a resolution and put this behind us and make sure it never happens again.
02:21:38.000 Yeah.
02:21:39.000 There's somebody in the chat said, I'm Carl Carl.
02:21:43.000 Okay.
02:21:44.000 I'm Carl Carl.
02:21:44.000 Thank you.
02:21:45.000 Really interesting name there.
02:21:47.000 And he says, Laura, can you ask Drew of ways of resolution?
02:21:50.000 Okay.
02:21:53.000 So this can end in a number of different ways.
02:21:56.000 Really, it all boils down to three scenarios.
02:22:00.000 The first scenario is something nobody wants, and that's a class action lawsuit.
02:22:03.000 Class action lawsuits mean the lawyers get rich, everybody else gets hammered and takes pennies on the dollar.
02:22:10.000 There is a scenario where Nextbridge Hydrocarbons can settle this
02:22:15.000 With the entities that are carrying their share imbalances.
02:22:19.000 NextBridge can give them the shares that they need to be able to deliver them to us.
02:22:25.000 Or they can open this thing up.
02:22:27.000 Here's the interesting thing.
02:22:29.000 NextBridge Hydrocarbons back in April.
02:22:32.000 They reached out to FINRA, to OTC markets, and to the DTCC to try to fix this situation.
02:22:39.000 The DTCC is where all of these trades get cleared.
02:22:44.000 The OTC markets, what they reached out and said was they were looking to temporarily list their shares on the exchange so that we can get a reconciliation.
02:22:54.000 What do I mean by reconciliation?
02:22:56.000 Sometimes if you go to the airport,
02:22:58.000 And an airplane seats 200 people, but they sold 210 tickets.
02:23:02.000 Somebody will get on the loudspeaker and say, ladies and gentlemen, we regret to inform you that we've sold 210 tickets and we need 10 passengers that would be willing to give up their seats.
02:23:12.000 We'll give you $200 per seat and we'll put you on the next flight out.
02:23:16.000 That is the equivalent of what Nextbridge reached out to the concerned parties to accomplish.
02:23:22.000 OTC markets, in an unprecedented move, agreed to assist NexBridge in facilitating this resolution.
02:23:31.000 DTCC is notorious for not responding to the public or to any kinds of inquiries.
02:23:36.000 They don't have to.
02:23:38.000 In a stunning move, not only did they respond, but they agreed for the first time in history to help NexBridge by issuing them a CUSIP number, which is what makes the security tradable, which would then be deleted at the end of the reconciliation so that NexBridge could go back to not being publicly tradable.
02:23:57.000 FINRA was the only entity that would not agree to assist NexBridge.
02:24:03.000 The same entity that allowed this thing to trade and halted it without notification to the public did not agree to assist NexBridge and their reasoning was
02:24:14.000 That their understanding of their jurisdictional authority did not comport with the nature of Netsbridge's request.
02:24:22.000 And they basically stated that this authority is delegated to us by the SEC and overseen by Congress.
02:24:30.000 So basically they punted to the SEC.
02:24:32.000 But the third form of resolution outside of class action
02:24:36.000 Killstrose, uh...
02:24:55.000 Killstraw said, uh, just a thank you to Laura for giving our story coverage.
02:24:59.000 It means a lot to a lot of families.
02:25:01.000 Merry Christmas.
02:25:02.000 Merry Christmas to you, too, and thank you for the $50 Super Chat.
02:25:02.000 Thank you.
02:25:05.000 Look, you know, I have a lot of followers.
02:25:08.000 I, uh, I've been banned on all social media for years, and
02:25:11.000 I only got my ex account back about a year or so ago when Elon restored my account after he purchased.
02:25:18.000 So I know what it's like to lose your livelihood because of dubious actors in the government and also, you know, billionaires or people who feel like they are above the law.
02:25:28.000 Because it happened to me.
02:25:29.000 Not in this way, but in terms of having my business.
02:25:32.000 Destroyed by big tech social media censorship.
02:25:35.000 So I'm always trying to look out for people that are getting screwed by the system.
02:25:39.000 And I try to use my platform as an investigative journalist to highlight stories of corruption.
02:25:45.000 And I think that this is something that more people need to be paying attention to.
02:25:50.000 It's not a partisan issue at all.
02:25:52.000 I'm sure there's Republicans, Democrats, Independents, all types of people who are affected by this.
02:25:56.000 So I'm more than happy to help out whenever I can.
02:25:58.000 I know we have a couple more questions too.
02:26:00.000 Someone said, scroll up.
02:26:02.000 Hi, Laura.
02:26:08.000 Oh, never mind.
02:26:09.000 Yeah, I saw it.
02:26:13.000 I thought that was going to be a question, like a serious question, but it started out by saying, Hi Laura, it's your future ex-husband.
02:26:20.000 Oh my, that is crazy.
02:26:23.000 Alaskan for God in America again said, for $10.
02:26:27.000 Thank you, Laura.
02:26:28.000 God bless you.
02:26:29.000 This is an international issue.
02:26:31.000 We have many from all over the world that are in this debacle.
02:26:34.000 People from all walks of life, police officers, firemen, attorneys.
02:26:37.000 Yes, of course.
02:26:38.000 Thank you so much.
02:26:38.000 I appreciate it.
02:26:39.000 Happy to help.
02:26:41.000 It's true.
02:26:42.000 We have shareholders literally from all over the world that are affected by this.
02:26:46.000 As a matter of fact, in Canada, everybody in Canada, it seems, has been told that they have to pay capital gains taxes on this thing.
02:26:56.000 When they never sold a share, they never made a penny off of this.
02:27:00.000 We have shareholders in Ireland.
02:27:02.000 We have shareholders in Sweden.
02:27:05.000 We have shareholders all over the world that have been affected by this, and it really is... I mean, this could shape up to be a pretty big international incident if it is not handled properly.
02:27:17.000 And if it receives the attention it deserves.
02:27:22.000 Yeah, let's see what else is there.
02:27:23.000 Scroll up.
02:27:24.000 A few more questions.
02:27:25.000 We have a few more questions.
02:27:32.000 Somebody said I laugh a lot.
02:27:33.000 Yeah, you know, I just think that some of this stuff is so crazy that I don't know.
02:27:39.000 I can't help but laugh.
02:27:41.000 Not at not at the suffering of others, but just like just how
02:27:45.000 Corrupted is right like you you almost just have to laugh at like the absurdity of Just the absolute clown show of our country, right?
02:27:53.000 I mean if you're not if you're not crying you're laughing if you're not laughing you're crying and it's just a clown show and I just I look at this stuff and I'm like how is this happening like how do we have
02:28:03.000 Regulatory agencies that are supposed to be regulating and protecting people from things like this happening, and then there doesn't really seem to be any regulation really going on.
02:28:13.000 It's just kind of mind-boggling to me every single day.
02:28:15.000 That's what happens when you allow the inmates to run the asylum.
02:28:19.000 Yeah, and I guess every single day I think to myself, wow, it can't get worse.
02:28:25.000 But it does, and it's shocking.
02:28:27.000 I'm almost like, I just kind of am at a loss of words sometimes when I see
02:28:33.000 How bad things are in our country on all levels.
02:28:36.000 Kind of what I was just saying now too, right?
02:28:38.000 Like we have these organizations that exist and what are supposed to be measures to protect
02:28:53.000 In principle, yes.
02:28:53.000 FINRA has a duty
02:29:11.000 To carry out their mandate and protect the investing public and do the right thing by the investing public.
02:29:17.000 But their actions seem to indicate that they have no fiduciary duty.
02:29:22.000 And since they have SRO status, which gives them immunity to any legal claims, they seem to think that they're beyond reproach.
02:29:34.000 We have another $5 super chat from Laker Jay.
02:29:37.000 He said, thanks for covering our story, Laura.
02:29:39.000 MMTLP community will never give up until we are made whole.
02:29:43.000 BL, chicken wing eating, barn side chilling and playing pegging will never give up.
02:29:48.000 I don't know what that means, but okay.
02:29:51.000 I don't know what that means.
02:29:52.000 I think that means he's eating chicken.
02:29:55.000 I don't know what that means.
02:30:02.000 I don't know what that means, but okay.
02:30:03.000 Thanks for the super chat.
02:30:07.000 Let's see.
02:30:09.000 Hope that's not something bad.
02:30:13.000 I don't know what that even means.
02:30:17.000 Let's see.
02:30:21.000 People are still talking about Arby's from
02:30:25.000 The previous episode.
02:30:26.000 Let me ask you a question, Laura, if I may.
02:30:28.000 Yeah.
02:30:31.000 Do you have a 401k or an IRA or any retirement plans or anything out there?
02:30:37.000 Not right now, no.
02:30:40.000 Yeah, so the reason why I ask this question is
02:30:44.000 If you have a 401k or an IRA, the practice of counterfeit shares and naked shorting, it literally drives these companies, their prices down, and it could potentially drive them out of business.
02:30:59.000 Companies go out of business all the time.
02:31:01.000 They go belly up from these abusive short selling practices.
02:31:05.000 Mainly, it's these companies that don't have much cash on hand.
02:31:10.000 But if you have a 401k or an IRA, they can sell shares that don't exist.
02:31:18.000 Which would then suppress the price and it strips the entire American public of their wealth.
02:31:24.000 And like I said before, the MMTLP situation is unique in that if we actually get a share count and we expose this practice, obviously the next logical question for our legislators is, how did this happen and what legislation do we have to pass
02:31:42.000 So that the regulatory framework does not allow for the wealth of the American public and hard-working people across the world that invest to have their money stripped from them.
02:31:52.000 Yeah.
02:31:54.000 Anyone with a 401k or an IRA is at risk here.
02:31:58.000 Yeah, I don't really have anything right now because I had a lawsuit without getting too much into my personal finances.
02:32:04.000 I had a lawsuit.
02:32:05.000 I'm not really even allowed to talk about it, but basically a lawsuit involving a group called CARE.
02:32:10.000 And, you know, it's public information.
02:32:12.000 I'm not really allowed to talk about CARE anymore due to a court order.
02:32:15.000 But I had to turn over all of my financial information, everything that I had, any investments, any financial information.
02:32:25.000 We're good to go.
02:32:43.000 A retirement fund or something?
02:32:45.000 Well you know like unfortunately when you get targeted you get targeted in really severe financial ways.
02:32:51.000 I had to pretty much give everything that I had to fulfill this judgment and still have to pay off this judgment and
02:33:00.000 Um, you know, it's an unfortunate situation, but you know, that's that's why I know that I promote Gold Co and I know that I promote all of these opportunities for other people.
02:33:11.000 And I promote, um, I promote, um, I promote all types of
02:33:20.000 Wealth management companies, people that want to sponsor the show.
02:33:23.000 I promote Gold Co.
02:33:24.000 And so some people may be thinking, oh, that's a little hypocritical.
02:33:28.000 I can't really have anything until I get this judgment paid off.
02:33:32.000 And I have to pay this judgment pretty much on a monthly basis.
02:33:36.000 I'm not really allowed to talk about it too much, but that's my situation.
02:33:40.000 I haven't even really been able to fundraise to pay off this judgment.
02:33:44.000 It's all public information.
02:33:46.000 People can look it up themselves and they can see for themselves, but ultimately I pretty much lost everything as a result of this.
02:33:54.000 Free speech isn't exactly free, and so I do what I can.
02:33:58.000 I try to help others, but that's my personal situation right now.
02:34:03.000 And yet you still stay here and fight.
02:34:06.000 Yeah, gotta keep on fighting.
02:34:08.000 You can't let them get you down.
02:34:11.000 Let's see, more chat questions.
02:34:15.000 We got a lot more questions that just came in.
02:34:19.000 Karma, let it trade.
02:34:21.000 $20 said, Laura, can you ask Andrew if he has any suggestions on what you or any listeners out there might be able to do to help the MMTLP community?
02:34:30.000 Yeah, I mean, honestly, it's really all about creating awareness.
02:34:34.000 Awareness, not only for Congress to see that we're here and we're fighting and we're not going to stop fighting even after this open letter comes out.
02:34:43.000 But if there are, you know, influencers or other personalities watching, cover the story.
02:34:49.000 Talk to the people within our community.
02:34:51.000 You know, we've been in spaces on X 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
02:35:00.000 Ever since this halt on December 9th.
02:35:02.000 We're always there.
02:35:03.000 They're there right now listening.
02:35:06.000 This story is an amazing story, to be quite honest.
02:35:09.000 Yeah, it's a story of deception, but the way that this community has banded together and shown each other love and support and carried each other through the most dire of circumstances, this is a real human interest story.
02:35:22.000 So what I would say is, if anybody out there is listening, cover the story.
02:35:26.000 Cover the story.
02:35:28.000 Hold people accountable.
02:35:29.000 The court of public opinion is a great place
02:35:35.000 To hold somebody accountable for something and force a resolution for 65,000 plus families that have now had going on two Christmases robbed from them.
02:35:46.000 Cover the story.
02:35:47.000 That's what I would say.
02:35:51.000 Spudnuck said, thanks Laura, and can you tell Dapper Drew thank you?
02:35:55.000 That's very nice, thank you.
02:35:57.000 Let's see.
02:35:58.000 Scroll down some more.
02:35:59.000 Let's see more questions.
02:36:00.000 Hi, Laura.
02:36:01.000 Thank you for your time with This Matter.
02:36:02.000 Could you please forward our situation to Tucker Carlson?
02:36:05.000 So, I've never been on Tucker Carlson's show.
02:36:09.000 I'll see what I can do.
02:36:09.000 You know, I know a lot of people.
02:36:11.000 I don't really talk to Tucker Carlson.
02:36:13.000 I'm not going to be like one of these people that says, oh yeah, this person's my friend.
02:36:16.000 I talk to this person all the time.
02:36:18.000 I'm obviously very good friends with James O'Keefe.
02:36:20.000 And so I'll be sure to pass this along to James O'Keefe because some of you were asking.
02:36:24.000 Comments, whether I could, you know, pass this along to him.
02:36:27.000 I will be sure to send him a copy of the link of this interview, because he's, you know, very good friends with me, and we were just with each other last week, and very close friend of mine.
02:36:35.000 I can easily get something to James O'Keefe, but Tucker, you know, we'll see.
02:36:40.000 We'll see.
02:36:41.000 I know some people who know Tucker, so perhaps we can get him on this.
02:36:44.000 But I've never even been on Tucker's show.
02:36:45.000 The fact that you're doing this for us, the fact that you're just doing this, Laura, it is so important to so many of us, so thank you so much.
02:36:53.000 Thank you.
02:36:53.000 Yeah.
02:36:54.000 Ace on the flop, $10 said.
02:36:57.000 Multiple media companies have lied about facts about MMTLP.
02:37:00.000 Do you think they are paid for?
02:37:01.000 Probably everybody's paid for, right?
02:37:03.000 Seems like everybody's paid for.
02:37:05.000 Makan156, Laura, we want to see you in Las Vegas soon after the MMTLP resolution.
02:37:13.000 People are tired, so let's get this scam done and put these bad actors behind bars.
02:37:18.000 When this thing resolves, there's supposed to be a big gathering.
02:37:21.000 Everybody's going to get together and cry together, probably for weeks at a time in Las Vegas.
02:37:27.000 And most certainly, you'd be at this point for your service to our community.
02:37:34.000 Apparently, people would love to have you there.
02:37:37.000 So you guys have some big conference in Vegas?
02:37:39.000 Is that what the reference was to Vegas?
02:37:41.000 I just got back from Vegas the other day.
02:37:42.000 I was there for the UFC fight.
02:37:45.000 It's going to be more of just a gathering and a celebration once this thing is finally resolved.
02:37:51.000 God willing, resolved in a way that is favorable to the people who've been suffering for the last year.
02:37:58.000 It's basically just going to be, you know, everyone's going to just come together and eat and dance and have a great time.
02:38:03.000 Paul T is going to dance.
02:38:05.000 He says he can dance for 16 hours.
02:38:07.000 I'm looking forward to seeing that.
02:38:09.000 Well, don't blow all your money in Vegas.
02:38:11.000 I don't know if Vegas is the safest place to celebrate.
02:38:14.000 I am going.
02:38:15.000 Gonna blow your money.
02:38:17.000 All right, let's see.
02:38:19.000 LaborsFurniture1, thanks for giving this attention.
02:38:23.000 Thank you for the $10 super chat.
02:38:25.000 Let's see.
02:38:26.000 Alaska1810373, watch the Wall Street Conspiracy documentary on YouTube for a history of illegal short-selling counterfeiting.
02:38:33.000 Oh, I'll have to write that down.
02:38:36.000 Go up, sorry.
02:38:39.000 Yeah, they're actually working on a sequel.
02:38:41.000 They're actually working on a sequel that is going to feature, my understanding is, a segment on... It's called Wall Street Conspiracy?
02:38:49.000 Yes, ma'am.
02:38:49.000 Wall Street Conspiracy.
02:38:51.000 I'll have to write that down.
02:38:52.000 I've never seen that.
02:38:54.000 I'll watch that sometime.
02:38:57.000 Yeah, Christina Copeland, I believe, is the one producing it.
02:39:02.000 Now I have something to watch over the holidays with my dogs.
02:39:05.000 We're going to cuddle up in bed and watch this documentary.
02:39:07.000 That's nice.
02:39:13.000 Some people are making comments about care.
02:39:15.000 I have a court order.
02:39:17.000 I am legally not allowed to ever say anything about care ever again and so I'm not allowed to address the comments about care or else I will go to jail because this judge has literally threatened to throw me in jail if I speak about them.
02:39:30.000 The same judge who ordered the raid on Mar-a-Lago.
02:39:32.000 So I am not ignoring you.
02:39:34.000 I just literally am not allowed to speak about them.
02:39:38.000 I know it sounds really crazy.
02:39:39.000 This is America.
02:39:40.000 Like I said, we don't have free speech anymore.
02:39:42.000 I see your comments, but I am legally not allowed to address anything about care or else the same judge who ordered the raid on Mar-a-Lago is going to have me arrested.
02:39:53.000 Uh, let's see.
02:39:58.000 UPS, YES, $20.
02:40:00.000 Talk about Sam Drady, the FOIA, and Thank Howard.
02:40:02.000 I think we've talked about the FOIA already, right?
02:40:04.000 So we don't need to go... Yeah, and Howard is the superstar.
02:40:07.000 Howard is the superstar in the community that got it for us.
02:40:10.000 Great.
02:40:11.000 Well, thank you, Howard.
02:40:12.000 We've already talked about that, though, so we're going to move on to other questions.
02:40:15.000 And if you're just joining now, you can go and watch the episode when we're all done tonight.
02:40:20.000 You know, it's a live show, but obviously you can watch it later as well.
02:40:24.000 Bee Schoper gave $2.
02:40:26.000 He said, Drew, major shorting on this platform.
02:40:28.000 Rumble manipulation called out by CEO Pavlosky.
02:40:32.000 Can anything be done?
02:40:33.000 WU, Loomer, and Rumble.
02:40:37.000 Yeah, so there are, you know, there are attorneys out there that specialize in trying to analyze trade data to determine if abusive naked short selling is taking place.
02:40:48.000 I would point to Wes Christian, who really is a pioneer with his share Intel software that is able to detect spoofing and counterfeiting.
02:40:59.000 And I would say, you know, if the CEO really feels that strongly about it, he should reach out to Wes.
02:41:06.000 Well we're, I just want to let everybody know that we are on the front page of Rumble right now.
02:41:11.000 And so your story and all this information that you're giving me tonight is currently, and we'll show everybody right now, we can get that pulled up.
02:41:19.000 We have so many people watching right now that we actually are on the front page of Rumble.
02:41:23.000 So that's exciting right there.
02:41:25.000 You can see episode 18.
02:41:27.000 We have a lot of live viewers right now.
02:41:30.000 So we're one of the top streams on Rumble currently.
02:41:32.000 So a lot of people are getting this information and
02:41:35.000 Be sure, I'm sure a lot of new people are watching my show for the first time tonight.
02:41:38.000 Be sure that you're following me on X and True Social at Laura Loomer.
02:41:42.000 And also be sure that you're downloading the Rumble app and following my channel as well.
02:41:46.000 Every Tuesday and Thursday I do my show, so it's a live show.
02:41:50.000 I can't tell you how much warmth it brings my heart to see the MMTLP symbol situated between you and Donald Trump.
02:41:57.000 Yeah, I know, right?
02:41:58.000 It made a nice little graphic for us all tonight.
02:42:01.000 Get out there and vote for Trump.
02:42:03.000 That's how you can thank me.
02:42:05.000 You want to end the corruption in our country, you got to go vote for Donald Trump.
02:42:09.000 So if people want to thank me, we got to save our country.
02:42:12.000 And that's the thing that's going to warm my heart the most, is seeing Donald Trump get back into the White House.
02:42:18.000 And people want to know what I care about the most right now.
02:42:21.000 I am so invested in getting Trump re-elected again.
02:42:24.000 And so I hope that all of you will go register to vote.
02:42:28.000 I know, like, both parties suck.
02:42:30.000 I'm a Republican.
02:42:30.000 I hate being a Republican because I hate the Republican Party.
02:42:33.000 But, uh, I would say get out there and vote for Donald Trump.
02:42:36.000 Uh, Gary, $100 super chat.
02:42:39.000 Thank you.
02:42:39.000 Let's all help Loomer fight for us.
02:42:41.000 I really appreciate that.
02:42:43.000 MMTLP Studios just became a monthly supporter.
02:42:45.000 Yeah, look, you can all become a monthly supporter by, at the bottom of my Rumble channel, there's a GetLumared logo, and at the bottom of that, that's how you can sign up for my local.
02:42:56.000 So click GetLumared on my Rumble channel, and you click support, and you can sign up to be a monthly subscriber for $7 a month or $70 per year, or you can make a one-time donation as well to support my show.
02:43:09.000 And that allows me to be totally independent.
02:43:11.000 And whenever I want to have a story on, I just get to say, oh, I call my producer and I say, let's get this person on.
02:43:18.000 And just like we did today with you, Drew.
02:43:20.000 So, um, it allows me to be independent and not controlled by the corporate mainstream media.
02:43:29.000 MMTLP is the biggest financial crime in history.
02:43:32.000 Made off $60 billion.
02:43:33.000 MMTLP, $1.2 trillion potentially.
02:43:39.000 Miss Laura, someone said, GC Driven said, Miss Laura, I'm gonna laugh so hard answering this question.
02:43:45.000 Oh my god.
02:43:46.000 They say, Miss Laura, why do you think the DOJ or the FBI haven't made the situation a priority?
02:43:51.000 Because they're too busy hunting down MAGA, domestic violent extremists like me and Donald Trump.
02:43:57.000 That's why.
02:43:58.000 They're too busy.
02:43:59.000 So that's why we got to get Trump back into office because once we get these shitheads out of the DOJ and the FBI, we can actually get some order back at these agencies that are supposed to be doing their damn job and investigating real crime and fraud in our country instead of hunting down Trump supporters.
02:44:15.000 All right?
02:44:15.000 That's the true answer to your question.
02:44:18.000 That's why.
02:44:18.000 Okay?
02:44:19.000 Trump 2024.
02:44:21.000 Does Ravioli know what he's talking about?
02:44:25.000 Okay, I don't know.
02:44:26.000 Is that what they call you, Ravioli?
02:44:29.000 No, Ravioli is a shareholder from Long Island.
02:44:33.000 Oh, okay.
02:44:34.000 I don't know if that was, like, a name.
02:44:35.000 He goes, I don't know if that was, like, an insult right now, because he's, like, $2 Super Chat watching this show.
02:44:39.000 I don't know if he was, like, calling you Ravioli, you know?
02:44:41.000 Like, Ravioli!
02:44:42.000 Does Ravioli know what he's talking about?
02:44:44.000 We love Ravioli.
02:44:46.000 He's been a source of joy and smile and laughter for our community for over a year now.
02:44:50.000 He's the best.
02:44:51.000 Okay.
02:44:51.000 So that's like an inside thing.
02:44:53.000 A lot of inside... inside scoops that I'm not really familiar with.
02:44:56.000 Okay, so that's good.
02:44:58.000 That's nice.
02:44:58.000 We've been here for a year, Laura.
02:45:00.000 We've been here for a year.
02:45:01.000 We've gotten to know each other so deeply and we've formed these bonds that are truly gonna just continue on long after this thing is over.
02:45:09.000 I've made lifelong friends.
02:45:12.000 I look at Joanna like a sister.
02:45:14.000 I look at so many people in this community.
02:45:17.000 I look at a guy named Andrew, who actually shares the same name as me.
02:45:22.000 I look at him as a brother.
02:45:24.000 There's countless others that I could list off.
02:45:28.000 The relationships that have formed in this community are amazing, and Ravioli is one of those people that has just brought so much joy to so many during a really rough time.
02:45:38.000 Well, I'm happy to hear that.
02:45:39.000 So shout out to Ravioli.
02:45:42.000 Blaise Shawl, $25 super chat.
02:45:44.000 Thank you so much.
02:45:45.000 Big ups to Laura for taking our story.
02:45:47.000 Great job, Jew, for putting the facts out.
02:45:48.000 This will come to light that this is the biggest case of fraud in the U.S.
02:45:51.000 stock market history.
02:45:56.000 Let's see.
02:46:00.000 Somebody said he's hilarious great job drew.
02:46:04.000 I love Laura my new heartthrob.
02:46:05.000 Thank you Courageous Laura rocks.
02:46:08.000 Thank you for all the nice lovely comments Lots of Arby's comments tonight That's a reference from the previous episode of course Did you realize that this was halted because there is a huge overage in
02:46:25.000 Absolutely believe.
02:46:26.000 That's what he's asking.
02:46:49.000 I mean, inside job is very loaded.
02:46:53.000 All I know is, I stay rooted in facts, all I know is we've been asking for a share count
02:46:58.000 Going on a year now, and they have refused to provide us that.
02:47:02.000 And that is the most basic thing to ask for.
02:47:05.000 We're not asking for identities.
02:47:07.000 We're just asking for numbers.
02:47:10.000 And an organization that's supposed to provide transparency to the investing public has refused to give us even a share count.
02:47:17.000 So I think that says a lot in and of itself.
02:47:19.000 InsideJob, I'm not going to make any accusations like that on a forum like this.
02:47:25.000 All I'm going to say is we're still waiting for our share count.
02:47:28.000 And we're not going anywhere until we get it.
02:47:32.000 P. Costa, 2022, the crimes keep on criming.
02:47:35.000 The crimers keep on criming.
02:47:36.000 Yes.
02:47:38.000 That's another inside joke.
02:47:45.000 For anyone watching, MMTLPResources.com has everything you'd ever want to know about the situation.
02:47:50.000 OK, so there's a website there.
02:47:52.000 You can go check that out.
02:47:53.000 Absolutely.

02:48:49.000 That's really nice.
02:48:51.000 Great job.
02:48:52.000 Let's go back.
02:48:54.000 If you go up to the top, you see all those people holding the hashtag MMTLP.
02:49:01.000 There was a campaign that was called Hashtag Faces of MMTLP.
02:49:08.000 And we basically, we've got members of our community, families and just holding signs of MMTLP to put a face to the victims here.
02:49:17.000 These are everyday, ordinary, hardworking people.
02:49:20.000 that have been victimized, quite frankly, and we're just fighting for some answers and eventually, ultimately, a resolution that's fair and equitable.
02:49:28.000 And the Faces of MMTLP campaign, what you're seeing on the top of your screen right now, was one of the first ways that we were able to create awareness.
02:49:36.000 And it was fantastic, and it was actually brought forward by a firefighter named Richard in the state of Florida, who is also an MMTLP fan.
02:49:43.000 Wow!
02:49:44.000 Amazing.
02:49:45.000 A Floridian.
02:49:47.000 Let's go to the chat again.
02:49:48.000 More questions.
02:49:55.000 God.
02:49:58.000 Ravioli isn't going anywhere until we get our share count.
02:50:00.000 Okay.
02:50:01.000 Thank you.
02:50:02.000 Thank you very much.
02:50:02.000 So many families desperately need a resolution.
02:50:06.000 I'm not happy about what's happening in Colorado.
02:50:08.000 $20 from Tata.
02:50:10.000 Oh, 1014.
02:50:12.000 Thank you.
02:50:12.000 I'm not happy about it either.
02:50:17.000 Thank you, Laura, for trying to help us.
02:50:26.000 That's right, Drew.
02:50:26.000 We're not going anywhere.
02:50:27.000 Just lots of comments.
02:50:28.000 Wow, so many comments tonight.
02:50:33.000 We tend to travel in packs.
02:50:35.000 We don't go anywhere alone.
02:50:36.000 Yeah, I noticed that.
02:50:37.000 We've never had so many super chats.
02:50:40.000 We get a lot of comments, obviously, but we never had so many...
02:50:43.000 We're definitely gonna do it, don't you worry about that.
02:50:45.000 And of course,
02:51:11.000 I just can't thank you enough for the coverage that you've given us here.
02:51:15.000 I'm hoping that it will lead to much more coverage at a greater scale.
02:51:21.000 Somebody said, Laura, are you understanding this as a lot?
02:51:23.000 Well, like I said, I was very open and transparent with Drew.
02:51:27.000 This is not my wheelhouse, but I understand it a lot more now, now that it's been explained to me.
02:51:32.000 And I'm learning just like so many other people are learning tonight.
02:51:35.000 But I have a large platform.
02:51:37.000 And of course, if I could answer any questions for you or put you in touch with, you know, anybody involved in the situation,
02:52:08.000 Please don't hesitate to reach out.
02:52:09.000 I'd be more than happy to facilitate that and bring other community members onto your show.
02:52:15.000 There are so many community members that have done so much work.
02:52:18.000 Busy Brands has done so much work.
02:52:20.000 Anna has done a tremendous amount of work with Congress.
02:52:24.000 Cynthia has done a tremendous amount of work.
02:52:26.000 Curtis has done a tremendous amount of work.
02:52:29.000 The thing that they didn't count on, I could keep going about Juan and Jack and just everybody,
02:52:35.000 Um, and my own brother.
02:52:38.000 The wonderful thing about this and what they didn't count on was that a group of very, very bright and resourceful people were going to stay here and fight.
02:52:48.000 They did not see this coming, and they better be prepared because we're here for a year strong, and we haven't wavered.
02:52:56.000 Our
02:52:58.000 Resolute is stronger than ever.
02:53:00.000 We are not going anywhere.
02:53:02.000 Our resolve is not fading whatsoever.
02:53:04.000 In fact, it's getting stronger with every day that goes by.
02:53:13.000 Alright, well, I think we took a lot of questions on this tonight, and, you know, if anybody has anything else that they want to share with me, people can message me.
02:53:21.000 My DMs are open on Twitter.
02:53:23.000 They can also send it to you, and you have my contact information now.
02:53:27.000 We can get you back on the show as well.
02:53:31.000 And I really appreciate everybody who participated in this conversation tonight.
02:53:36.000 Any last words, Drew, before I let you go?
02:53:39.000 Once again, I just want to say thank you so much to you, Laura.
02:53:43.000 I appreciate it.
02:53:44.000 You are doing something for us that 95% of the people that we're supposed to look to for help on this, our conduits to the free markets, the regulators that govern them,
02:53:55.000 They haven't given us an ear, and you've given us not only that, but a platform.
02:53:59.000 So thank you so very much for doing that.
02:54:02.000 Secondly, I want to thank everybody in the MMTLP community.
02:54:05.000 All the work that you've done, the emails that you've sent, the tweets, the phone calls, the outreach, the MMTLP community.
02:54:12.000 It is a pleasure and a privilege for me to be a small contributor to them.
02:54:16.000 And like I said before, FINRA and the SEC, you better get on the horn and resolve this thing with Nextbridge Hydrocarbons, because we are not going anywhere until this is resolved.
02:54:29.000 Well, thank you so much.
02:54:30.000 Thank you for, you know, being a leader and for, you know, taking the initiative to really set this up.
02:54:35.000 And it seems like the community is very lucky to have you because you're doing so much and you're so well-spoken and very knowledgeable about this.
02:54:43.000 And it's shocking what's happening.
02:54:46.000 And I hope that you guys are able to resolve this issue and recover your funds, recover your money, and that everybody who's suffering

02:57:50.000 I mean, so many people have just lost everything that they have.
02:57:55.000 And I think it's really important, right, to plug our sponsor, Goldco, for this very reason, because you see how quickly you can lose your wealth and you can lose your assets on the stock market.
02:58:06.000 You can lose them if they
02:58:10.000 They're not really backed up in some kind of physical form, and so that's why I would encourage all of you to visit Lumerlikesgold.com.
02:58:18.000 Lumerlikesgold.com.
02:58:20.000 Be sure that you visit Gold Co.

02:58:29.000 It's really important that you back up your wealth with precious metals like gold and silver, and you don't want to wake up one day and have, you know,
02:58:39.000 All your assets frozen or have something like this happen to you and then go into foreclosure or not be able to pay your bills.
02:58:45.000 So you want to protect your retirement savings.
02:58:49.000 You want to protect your wealth.

02:59:04.000 LoomerLikesGold.com.
02:59:10.000 So we have a few more minutes left, and I just want to make a few announcements.
02:59:14.000 Next week, obviously, it's Christmas, and then it's New Year, and so there's not going to be any Loomer Unleashed next week.
02:59:21.000 Next Tuesday and Thursday, the entire production team is off, and so this is actually going to be the last episode of Loomer Unleashed before the New Year.
02:59:30.000 And so I'll be back in the first week of January, and by then, you know, we're going to be kicking off the Iowa caucus!
02:59:38.000 The Iowa caucus is going to be taking place on January 15th, and I'm sure that you've noticed that President Trump has been spending a lot of time in Iowa.
02:59:46.000 All the candidates have been spending a lot of time in Iowa, and Ron DeSantis has.
02:59:50.000 And a story that I broke yesterday, late last night, I don't know if you saw this, but it's just more treachery from so-called MAGA Mike Johnson, our loser Speaker of the House of Representatives.
03:00:03.000 Check this out.
03:00:04.000 Look at what he was doing yesterday.
03:00:07.000 Here is Mike Johnson, okay, with Randy Feenstra and several of the Iowa representatives who, Mary Miller Meeks and a few other guys who have all endorsed Ron DeSantis.
03:00:22.000 Well, maybe not openly endorsed Ron DeSantis, but they've been spotted campaigning for him and holding campaign events for him.
03:00:33.000 I mean, what is Mike Johnson doing the day that the Colorado court—this was Tuesday—the day that the Colorado Supreme Court rules against President Trump and tries to disqualify him from the ballot?
03:00:45.000 You're going to have Mike Johnson meeting with these DeSantis surrogates while DeSantis is in Iowa?
03:00:50.000 Like, what the hell is going on here?
03:00:53.000 He's sitting there with Representative Zach Nunn, and then you have Representative Mary Miller Meeks there, Randy Feenstra.
03:01:04.000 And, uh, Mary Miller Meeks, like, right before she took this photo, was with Chip Roy at an event.
03:01:10.000 She's the woman in the red dress in the photograph there.
03:01:12.000 You could get that photo up.
03:01:14.000 I mean, what the hell's going on here?
03:01:18.000 I'm sure we have, uh, more photos as well.
03:01:21.000 You can see her here speaking at an event.
03:01:23.000 Lookit, this is her speaking at a Ron DeSantis event.
03:01:25.000 Why is Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, who supposedly endorsed President Trump for President, meeting with DeSantis surrogates,
03:01:33.000 In Iowa.
03:01:34.000 It doesn't make any sense to me.
03:01:35.000 It just seems like he's a liar and a traitor, just like I said he was from the very beginning.
03:01:40.000 But you can check this story out at Loomerd.com.
03:01:42.000 Loomerd.com.
03:01:43.000 Speaker Johnson meets with Team DeSantis in Iowa following the Colorado State Supreme Court ruling that kicked Trump off the ballot.
03:01:49.000 So you can look up that story yourself and share it, right?
03:01:56.000 Share it around.
03:01:57.000 Share it around.
03:02:00.000 Big story.
03:02:01.000 No one wants to talk about it.
03:02:02.000 Mainstream media doesn't want to ask Mike Johnson what he was doing with all these DeSantis surrogates, but we got the story here.
03:02:06.000 Lumered.com.
03:02:08.000 Speaker Johnson meets with Team DeSantis in Iowa following the Colorado State Supreme Court ruling that kicked Trump off the Colorado ballot.
03:02:21.000 Really interesting story.
03:02:22.000 You should check that out.
03:02:23.000 Speaking of Iowa, we have this really funny clip today.
03:02:26.000 Ron DeSantis is like having a mental breakdown.
03:02:30.000 So he shows up in Iowa today.
03:02:31.000 It was so funny this morning because he was late to his own event.
03:02:35.000 Barely anybody showed up and they're like, oh well, you know, just enjoy the free coffee and donuts in the meantime.
03:02:40.000 And then tonight he was in Iowa and he was there with Oklahoma Governor Stitz.
03:02:47.000 And Ron DeSantis just hates life, you know?
03:02:50.000 He's so frustrated because he knows he's not gonna win, and he's just so agitated, and you just see how unlikable he is.
03:02:57.000 And I always said, and I received a lot of pushback for saying this, but I always said, you know, why have kids if you're just gonna use them as props?
03:03:05.000 I don't think that everybody should have kids.
03:03:06.000 I really don't.
03:03:08.000 I don't think that everybody should get married either.
03:03:10.000 I think that if you want to get married, you should find a person that you can actually get along with, that you're compatible with.
03:03:16.000 But I don't really think a lot of people put a lot of time these days into vetting the person that they're saying forever to.
03:03:23.000 Forever is supposed to be forever.
03:03:24.000 I mean, yeah, you can get a divorce, you can get an annulment, whatever, but forever is supposed to be forever, especially if you're having kids with somebody, you know?
03:03:31.000 And I just think that too many of these politicians have kids because they want to have
03:03:35.000 Somebody to put on their little mailers and say oh look at look at my cute little baby and they want to have their own little kid to dress up and take on the campaign trail and put in a campaign ad or put in a shirt and I Don't know people don't really think about the long-term implications of Reproducing with somebody that you are supposed to be stuck with forever right like literally creating another human being or human beings and then
03:04:03.000 The life that these children have to live.
03:04:05.000 Like, they grew up in broken homes, or they're used as political props, and I just feel so bad for DeSantis' children because they just look so miserable on the campaign trail.
03:04:14.000 And look at, you have Ron DeSantis today!
03:04:16.000 This was Ron DeSantis today!
03:04:18.000 Speaking on the Camp Adriel at an event in Iowa with Governor Stitz talking about how annoying his own kids are.
03:04:24.000 I mean, he says that he hates having to get his own children Christmas presents, okay?
03:04:30.000 Because, oh, I have to spend my time setting up the toys for my kids.
03:04:35.000 It's just so awful.
03:04:37.000 I mean, if you don't want to have
03:04:38.000 If you want to have children, then you should be happy about giving them gifts for Hanukkah or Christmas or whatever, right?
03:04:45.000 Like, you should be happy about giving your children presents and wanting to assemble presents for your children because that's going to make your child happy.
03:04:54.000 But Ron DeSantis is such a selfish man.
03:04:58.000 Him and his wife are just so selfish and they're so power hungry that they view their children this Christmas as being distractions or time sucks.
03:05:06.000 So take a listen to this clip.
03:05:07.000 I just want to show you how awful this man is.
03:05:10.000 I mean, like, I get frustrated with, because it's Christmas time, you know, we'll get the kids these toys, right?
03:05:17.000 And some of them require, like, a lot of assembly.
03:05:20.000 So I'm, and, like, the instructions will be, like, two-point font, and it's, like, not even very good stuff, and I'm trying to find a new screwdriver, and this, and all that, and they don't have all the parts.
03:05:32.000 So it's, like, it's an inordinate amount of time to be able to get the kids whatever they get, and then it ends up
03:05:38.000 And I'm just like, my kids, you know, and I hate having to put these toys together because, like, it just takes so much time, and I, you know how hard it is to put Lego sets together, and it's just like, oh my god, I just need to be like, you know, doing these campaign events, and my god, shut the hell up.
03:06:00.000 Ugh.
03:06:02.000 We already know you and your wife hate your kids, okay?
03:06:04.000 We already know.
03:06:05.000 We have to listen to your stupid bitch wife talk non-stop about... And she is a bitch, and I'm gonna call her a bitch because she's a bitch, okay?
03:06:12.000 I don't care if that offends anybody.
03:06:14.000 I'm so tired of having to listen to a stupid bitch wife who doesn't know when to stop talking, okay?
03:06:19.000 Her mouth, her voice is like nails on a chalkboard.
03:06:29.000 I hate her voice.
03:06:31.000 I'm sorry, but I just do.
03:06:33.000 She never stops talking.
03:06:34.000 She's awful.
03:06:35.000 His wife is just so awful.
03:06:38.000 And my kids, you know, my kids, they're just like, do you know what it's like having a toddler?
03:06:41.000 And, uh, oh my god, do you know what it's like having a toddler in the governor's mansion?
03:06:45.000 And, oh my god, do you know what it's like having to scrub, like, magic marker off of 17th century French wallpaper?
03:06:51.000 No, I don't!
03:06:52.000 I don't!
03:06:54.000 Because I don't have kids!
03:06:56.000 But if I did have kids, they would be disciplined, and they wouldn't be behaving like animals, and they would know not to draw with magic markers on 17th century French wallpaper, okay?
03:07:07.000 God!
03:07:08.000 She is so crazy!
03:07:10.000 This woman and her husband, they are so crazy, okay?
03:07:16.000 And I always tell my husband, Ron, you know, oh my god, it's just so much work because we're gonna have to go to Iowa, and we're gonna have to go to South Carolina, we gotta go to Florida, we gotta go here, we gotta go there, and we got the kids, and I got Mamie, and I got Mason, I got Madison, and it's like, it sounds like this woman is just having like a manic breakdown every time she talks about how frustrated she is being a mother of toddlers.
03:07:38.000 It's just, I don't know, I just...
03:07:41.000 There's something crazy about this woman.
03:07:44.000 I can't really... I don't know what it is, but there's just something very off about his wife.
03:07:49.000 And there's clearly something very off about him.
03:07:52.000 And you can just tell that these kids are probably miserable because they just bring him all over the campaign trail.
03:07:58.000 And who's watching these kids?
03:08:00.000 Are they in the audience having to listen to their dad talk about this?
03:08:03.000 They're children.
03:08:04.000 I thought that these children are gonna think that Santa Claus brings them toys, not dad.
03:08:07.000 So, oh, I have to assemble my kids toys, you know?
03:08:10.000 He's just so selfish and my message to people is don't have kids if you're going to be a shitty parent, okay?
03:08:18.000 I think we have a clip of here ranting and talking non-stop and just blabbing non-stop.
03:08:21.000 I mean, sorry, I'm gonna have to... Again, this is like a another graphic warning, right?
03:08:28.000 Because your ears are gonna bleed having to listen to Casey speak.
03:08:31.000 Oh, we don't have the clip pulled up, but...
03:08:33.000 There was a... I think the Dilly Meme Team.
03:08:35.000 Shout out to the Dilly Meme Team.
03:08:37.000 They actually made this really funny video not too long ago and it was a compilation with like carnival music like... And it just like zooms in every single time Casey talks and it's like a rant and then you just see they zoom in on this meme if we can find it.
03:08:57.000 To Ron's face and you can just see that he's like getting so frustrated because he just is like nodding and wants his wife to shut up and she won't stop talking.
03:09:04.000 And you don't see her as much on the campaign trail anymore because at first, right, she was doing all the talking for her husband and it was like, who's running for president?
03:09:11.000 Is it Casey or is it Ron?
03:09:13.000 Who is running for president right now?
03:09:17.000 I think that the producer found the meme.
03:09:19.000 I think that he found it.
03:09:20.000 We're gonna play it just so that you can see it.
03:09:22.000 It's just, you have to see it for yourself because it's just so crazy.
03:09:25.000 She's so crazy.
03:09:27.000 We're gonna play it right now so you can see just how crazy this lady is for yourself.
03:09:35.000 There's something so wrong with his wife.
03:09:38.000 Go ahead and play the clip.
03:09:51.000 Out of control household.
03:09:55.000 Husband not quite full size.
03:09:59.000 Such failure to behold.
03:10:03.000 She's got Eddie Monster eyes.
03:10:06.000 Her children's stories will bore you.
03:10:08.000 Eyebrows that will entice.
03:10:14.000 She'll never live in the White House.
03:10:18.000 She's got Eddie Monster eyes.
03:10:23.000 She'll berate you.
03:10:25.000 Then she'll hate you.
03:10:27.000 Sage is Santa's rider.
03:10:30.000 She'll castrate you.
03:10:32.000 She thinks enjoying things Iowa's annoying.
03:10:36.000 Her husband's campaign she's destroying.
03:10:40.000 They're not cool there.
03:10:43.000 Advertise, PC's got eddy monster eyes.
03:11:05.000 There's more, too.
03:11:06.000 There's more.
03:11:07.000 Also, every time she opens her mouth, she gets her husband in trouble.
03:11:10.000 I mean, you can type it in.
03:11:12.000 There was a story like a week or so ago about how she encouraged voter fraud.
03:11:16.000 She told people, come on, moms from across America, come to Iowa, caucus for my husband.
03:11:23.000 And she got in a lot of trouble, actually.
03:11:26.000 She got in a lot of trouble because everybody called her out.
03:11:28.000 So you could pull that story up, too.
03:11:33.000 Florida Casey and Rob Part Two are shitty parents.
03:11:35.000 Yeah, everybody's talking about it.
03:11:37.000 They are terrible parents.
03:11:40.000 While we're finding that story, let's go to the chat right now.
03:11:45.000 It was voter fraud.
03:11:47.000 She encouraged people to vote.
03:11:49.000 You can find the story.
03:11:49.000 She encouraged people to actually vote in the Iowa caucus.
03:11:52.000 Let's go to the chat, though, while you're finding that story.
03:11:54.000 Get some questions from people.
03:11:56.000 Got a couple more minutes.
03:12:04.000 Press one, press one in the chat if you think that Casey DeSantis talks too much.
03:12:11.000 Because I do.
03:12:17.000 Scroll down.
03:12:19.000 Let's see.
03:12:22.000 Press one in the chat if you think that Casey DeSantis speaks way too much.
03:12:38.000 Yeah.
03:12:39.000 I think we found it.
03:12:39.000 Did you find the story?
03:12:42.000 Casey DeSantis invites outsiders to caucus in Iowa.
03:12:44.000 Yep.
03:12:45.000 Here we go.
03:12:47.000 Casey and Ron play cleanup over Iowa caucus remarks.
03:12:51.000 Oh my God.
03:12:53.000 You could play that too.
03:12:53.000 Scroll down.
03:12:56.000 Scroll down to the clip, actually.
03:12:57.000 Scroll down.
03:12:58.000 Casey and Ron DeSantis are seeking to clarify comments the Florida First Lady made on Friday that appeared to encourage out-of-state voters to participate in the Iowa caucuses.
03:13:06.000 We're asking all these moms and grandmoms to come from wherever it might be, North Carolina, South Carolina, and to descend upon the state of Iowa to be a part of the caucus, because you do not have to be a resident of Iowa to be able to participate in the caucus.
03:13:19.000 So moms and grandmas are going to be able to come and be a part of... I just... You know how she talks.
03:13:23.000 It's so annoying.
03:13:24.000 It makes my ears bleed.
03:13:25.000 And let their voice be heard in support of Ron DeSantis.
03:13:28.000 So she's so stupid.
03:13:29.000 Okay.
03:13:30.000 Casey DeSantis is so dumb.
03:13:33.000 She said, you do not have to be a resident of Iowa to participate in the caucus.
03:13:38.000 Yes, you do.
03:13:39.000 Yes, you do.
03:13:40.000 And the Iowa GOP actually had to issue a statement clarifying this because Ron's wife is just so stupid.
03:13:47.000 Every time she opens her mouth, she just like her husband just goes down in the polls even more so.
03:13:54.000 God, I can't wait for them to just be done so I never have to hear them speak ever again.
03:13:58.000 Let's go back to the chat.
03:14:02.000 Alright guys, we're gonna take a couple more questions and then I guess I'll see you all next year, right?
03:14:08.000 I will see you all next year!
03:14:09.000 Any last questions from the chat?
03:14:18.000 Somebody said, how stupid can you be?
03:14:20.000 I don't know.
03:14:20.000 Apparently they're stupid.
03:14:22.000 And then there's DeSantis.
03:14:23.000 It's like a whole new level of stupid.
03:14:25.000 Because you're right.
03:14:26.000 You would think that they would know not to do that.
03:14:26.000 How stupid can you be?
03:14:31.000 It's pretty awful.
03:14:42.000 I think we found the clip.
03:14:43.000 Did we find the clip of her talking non-stop?
03:14:47.000 I think we have another clip.
03:14:49.000 I think we have another clip, you guys.
03:14:51.000 We're gonna play it.
03:14:53.000 Yeah, I think that's it of her talking non-stop so you guys can hear it.
03:14:58.000 Somebody said, how's the dogs?
03:14:59.000 They're good.
03:15:00.000 I'm tired, actually.
03:15:02.000 I've been streaming since 8.30, and I have to wake up so early.
03:15:02.000 It's almost midnight.
03:15:06.000 I have to be up at 5, actually, because Loomer, my bulldog, you know, the one that was having all the health issues, she's gonna be getting her teeth cleaned in the morning.
03:15:15.000 She's so cute.
03:15:16.000 So, I have to take Loomer to the vet in the morning because she goes under anesthesia because it's a deep clean and they require your dog to be under anesthesia when they do that.
03:15:25.000 So, she has to, you know, wake up really early.
03:15:28.000 We'll be going to the vet at five o'clock in the morning and she'll be getting her teeth cleaned.
03:15:32.000 And so, it's been a long day.
03:15:35.000 Not gonna get much sleep tonight because I gotta wake her up.
03:15:38.000 She's such a princess.
03:15:39.000 She's such a little princess, that dog.
03:15:41.000 And then Mecca.
03:15:42.000 I'm wearing a blue sweater and I bought Mecca because Mecca, Mecca's the little tiny one.
03:15:46.000 She's 10 pounds and Loomer's like 60 pounds.
03:15:49.000 So Loomer gets hot easily so I don't put sweaters on her because bulldogs get overheated.
03:15:53.000 But Mecca, she's so tiny that she has to wear a sweater.
03:15:57.000 So I bought her a matching sweater and today we were walking around.
03:15:59.000 I was wearing my blue sweater and she has a blue sweater.
03:16:03.000 I think I have a photo of it actually.
03:16:04.000 We'll get it pulled up.
03:16:05.000 Let me see.
03:16:06.000 She's so cute.
03:16:09.000 My little mecha bear.
03:16:10.000 I bought her, her and mommy have matching sweaters.
03:16:13.000 Here I'm gonna put this up on the screen.
03:16:15.000 I'm gonna put it in the chat for my producer and then you guys get to see how cute my little baby is.
03:16:24.000 She's so cute.
03:16:30.000 Let's see.
03:16:32.000 Putting this in the chat, and then I'm going to show you.
03:16:34.000 Hold on, guys.
03:16:35.000 Bear with me.
03:16:36.000 I'm going to be a dog mom and show you all my dog pics.
03:16:39.000 She's so sweet.
03:16:40.000 That way you can see that I bought her a matching blue sweater.
03:16:44.000 So she's just like Mommy!
03:16:45.000 But Loomer doesn't like sweaters.
03:16:53.000 She gets mad when I put her in a sweater, so she tries to rip it off.
03:16:57.000 Look how cute she is!
03:16:58.000 Look at my Mecca!
03:16:59.000 Aww!
03:17:01.000 Look at that.
03:17:05.000 Getting it up on the screen.
03:17:09.000 She matches me!
03:17:09.000 Look at it!
03:17:10.000 I'm gonna resize it.
03:17:16.000 Zoom in so you guys can see it better.
03:17:21.000 Look at that!
03:17:22.000 She's so cute!
03:17:23.000 Aww, Mecca!
03:17:27.000 So look, I, uh, I'm not kidding you guys.
03:17:29.000 I was literally walking around today and I had to go to the store and Mecca was there with me.
03:17:35.000 Look, I was wearing my blue sweater.
03:17:38.000 Look it, matching, just like mom.
03:17:39.000 She's got a matching blue sweater.
03:17:42.000 So...
03:17:43.000 I'm going to try to find some others as well so that we can match more often because she loves it.
03:17:48.000 I was like, Mecca, come here!
03:17:50.000 And I said, you going to match mommy today?
03:17:52.000 So she's adorable.
03:17:52.000 And that's what we did.
03:17:54.000 And then my favorite color is purple.
03:17:55.000 And so I got her her little heart necklace.
03:17:57.000 You see Mecca?
03:17:59.000 Mecca with a purple heart.
03:18:00.000 She's the sweetest.
03:18:01.000 I love her.
03:18:01.000 She's so cute.
03:18:02.000 I love Loomer as well.
03:18:03.000 But like I said, Loomer doesn't let me dress her up.
03:18:06.000 So whatever, right?
03:18:08.000 I'm going to have to dress Mecca up.
03:18:09.000 And I took a photo with Loomer though.
03:18:12.000 You want to see a photo with Loomer?
03:18:15.000 I'll show you a photo of Lemur with Mecca in the sweater today here.
03:18:20.000 This is a super cute one.
03:18:21.000 I'm going to show you guys right now.
03:18:27.000 But yeah, Lemur's doing so much better.
03:18:28.000 I'm so happy because I would have just been devastated if I lost her when she was sick about a month ago.

03:21:33.000 Oh my god, that's amazing.
03:21:34.000 So cute.
03:21:38.000 Someone said, CCP is a doggy bureaucracy too.

03:22:03.000 Who's your favorite?
03:22:09.000 I don't have favorites because I'm a mom and I was told that having favorites was a bad thing.
03:22:15.000 I'm a dog mom.
03:22:20.000 Your dogs are adorable.
03:22:21.000 What breed is Mecca?
03:22:21.000 Mecca's a Yorkie Poo.
03:22:24.000 She's a Yorkie Poo from China.
03:22:30.000 Someone said Mecca.
03:22:31.000 The other one scares me.
03:22:34.000 Liver's a sweetheart.
03:22:35.000 She doesn't scare me.
03:22:36.000 She's just so...
03:22:45.000 Do they eat greenie treats?
03:22:46.000 Yeah, they do.
03:22:46.000 They like the greenie treats.
03:22:53.000 Yeah, we love our fur babies, but...
03:22:55.000 Anyway, I figured that, uh, I would end the show, uh, with photos of my dogs, but 2023 has been a really great year!
03:23:03.000 I'm so excited that I was able to launch this show in October.
03:23:06.000 It's only been a couple months, and look at the success that the show has had!
03:23:10.000 And so, uh, we're on episode 18 now, and episode 19 will be in the new year, so I just wanted to thank all of you, all of my loyal supporters, and everybody who has been, you know, so supportive to me, and so loyal to the show, and everybody who has, uh,
03:23:23.000 Who has you know just really helped me rebuild my following over this last year by following me on Twitter following me on truth and Everybody who is in the chat.
03:23:32.000 I really appreciate everybody who?
03:23:35.000 Tunes in every single Tuesday and Thursday to watch my show And we're gonna have a lot of really great content breaking a lot of really big stories might go to Iowa I was just talking to my producer.
03:23:45.000 Maybe I'll make a trip out to Iowa as well and
03:23:49.000 And somebody said, Oh, why are you always gasping for air so much?
03:23:53.000 I have like the worst asthma.
03:23:55.000 It's gotten so bad.
03:23:56.000 It's gotten so bad.
03:23:57.000 To be honest with you, I'm really looking forward to this week off because I have a doctor's appointment.
03:24:01.000 But I have really bad asthma, and my doctor has told me that the lack of sleep and honestly, just like my high stress job, it's not really good for it.
03:24:12.000 And so that's why sometimes I'm out of breath, and I talk really fast.
03:24:16.000 But I know that I have asthma, so it's unfortunate.
03:24:19.000 But
03:24:20.000 To answer your question, to be honest with you, for the person who asked why I'm always so short of breath, I just have, like, the worst asthma, and I haven't been able to, like, figure out a way to get rid of it.
03:24:29.000 I take an inhaler.
03:24:32.000 But, honestly, I think, like, a lot of it has to do with stress.
03:24:35.000 Politics is so stressful.
03:24:39.000 And stress can actually make your asthma really worse, and I just, like, never have time to rest.
03:24:43.000 So that's the truth of the matter.
03:24:45.000 It's really sad, but that's just the facts.
03:24:48.000 I feel like my asthma has honestly gotten, like, so much worse over these last few months.
03:24:53.000 Someone said I work too much.
03:24:54.000 Yeah, I do take albuterol.
03:24:55.000 Somebody said albuterol.
03:24:57.000 I take albuterol and sometimes I, my producer knows too, I always carry my albuterol inhaler with me and I like take my albuterol right before I do my show and I don't know, I've tried everything.
03:25:06.000 I've tried my albuterol, I've tried like the inhaler steroids and not to get like too personal and whatnot but yeah, no, I have like the worst asthma over these last
03:25:17.000 I never used to really have it, but something like over these last six or eight months has just made it go crazy.
03:25:25.000 So, and it just makes me feel so tired, too.
03:25:29.000 So, I've really, really put so much time and effort into my shows.
03:25:34.000 I hope you all know how much effort I put into it, to the point where even my own doctor is like, oh my God, you gotta chill, you gotta take some time off, you gotta rest, because you're damaging your lungs so much.
03:25:45.000 But, yeah.
03:25:48.000 You know, you gotta make some sacrifices.
03:25:52.000 We gotta save the country.
03:25:53.000 But yes, when I talk and I do my three-hour shows, I will be totally honest with all of you.
03:25:59.000 Since some of you have noticed and some of you asked me about it, I, like, just get really bad pain in my lungs a lot of times, and I have, like, really bad pain in my throat, and I just have super, like, shortness of breath, and it's because of my asthma.
03:26:14.000 And I never had asthma growing up, but over these last
03:26:18.000 Probably like over the last year or so.
03:26:20.000 I started to get asthma towards the end of my second congressional campaign, and I think a lot of it has to do with the stress, but it really honestly has just not gotten any better.
03:26:29.000 I don't know what to do.
03:26:31.000 I really don't know what to do.
03:26:33.000 And I think also, too, I got COVID around that time of my second congressional campaign.
03:26:39.000 And so, really true story, I took those like Z-Pak, Zelenko supplements for a while because I thought that that was going to help.
03:26:46.000 And then someone said, oh, you probably have long COVID or something.
03:26:49.000 But no, like I had all the tests and I did antibiotic treatments.
03:26:54.000 I did everything, honestly.
03:26:55.000 But I think it's honestly just stress-induced asthma, really.
03:27:00.000 And I know that sounds terrible to say, but I don't see that going away anytime soon just because of how stressful my life is.
03:27:06.000 But...
03:27:08.000 We'll see.
03:27:09.000 Someone said a dehumidifier at night always helped my stung long-term steroids make asthma worse.
03:27:14.000 Yeah, honestly, I feel like after I took the steroids for the asthma, it made it worse, but I was told it was gonna make it better, but I don't know.
03:27:25.000 We'll see.
03:27:26.000 I drink my tea as well, for those of you who say drink some tea.
03:27:30.000 But I'm definitely looking forward to having a week off because I really need some rest.
03:27:36.000 For sure.
03:27:36.000 I'm sure a lot of people notice that.
03:27:40.000 Somebody said, do you know Dr. Artis?
03:27:42.000 He can help you.
03:27:42.000 He healed his daughter with a vitamin from Standard Process.
03:27:46.000 Yeah, I'll look into that as well.
03:27:53.000 I think I never took the vaccine, just not to go off on a tangent about my health, but I never took the vaccine.
03:27:59.000 But I will say I never had breathing problems until I got COVID.
03:28:03.000 I really honestly believe that COVID is a bioweapon.
03:28:06.000 And even if you didn't take the vaccine, I think that getting COVID
03:28:10.000 I know that people will say that basically it's like an over-exaggerated flu.
03:28:14.000 I agree.
03:28:15.000 I do think that.
03:28:17.000 But I also think that there's elements within it that do long-term damage to your lungs.
03:28:21.000 Because I've never been able to breathe the same way ever since I had COVID.
03:28:27.000 And I had COVID twice.
03:28:28.000 And I took ivermectin and I took hydroxychloroquine, but I'll be honest, I never had the asthma.
03:28:33.000 I never had asthma in my life until I got COVID.
03:28:37.000 So there's something to that.
03:28:39.000 There's definitely something to it.
03:28:41.000 And I don't know if there's ever gonna be, you know, a fix for it.
03:28:44.000 I don't know.
03:28:44.000 It's very irritating because I have to talk for a living and I never felt so out of breath in my life.
03:28:53.000 But I definitely noticed that
03:28:57.000 That was long-term damage from COVID.
03:28:59.000 And maybe other people have experienced the same thing.
03:29:02.000 I refuse to take the vaccine.
03:29:03.000 I'll never take the vaccine.
03:29:04.000 But I've heard other people as well tell me that they've developed asthma or like worsening asthma after they had COVID.
03:29:12.000 So, we'll see.
03:29:19.000 All right, everybody.
03:29:20.000 Oh, one last one.
03:29:21.000 Alaskan for God, America again.
03:29:23.000 The Lord bless you and keep you.
03:29:24.000 The Lord make his face shine upon you.
03:29:26.000 Oh, go up.
03:29:27.000 We're gonna miss that super chat.
03:29:27.000 Go up.
03:29:30.000 And be gracious unto you.
03:29:31.000 The countenance of the Lord rest upon you and give you peace.
03:29:33.000 In Jesus' name I pray.
03:29:34.000 Amen and amen.
03:29:35.000 Thank you so much.
03:29:36.000 So nice of you.
03:29:42.000 Nikki said, I know what you're talking about.
03:29:45.000 Three of four in my family have had the same long-term.
03:29:47.000 It's crazy!
03:29:48.000 I used to be able to talk, like, so long without, like, taking a breath.
03:29:53.000 If I go back and listen to my old interviews, and I'm telling you, like, something happened to my lungs.
03:30:02.000 Something definitely happened after I got it.
03:30:05.000 Somebody said, I swear by natokinase.
03:30:08.000 I'll look that up.
03:30:09.000 I don't know what that is.
03:30:16.000 Yeah, if you're watching, if the same thing has happened to you after you had COVID, let me know because I'm definitely interested to see if other people had this too.
03:30:31.000 Someone said, try local honey.
03:30:33.000 I've tried local honey.
