00:17:24.040And what is safeguards is the Treasury and its administration putting in place to make
00:17:28.300sure new digital payment systems protect Americans' privacy and freedoms in the future?
00:17:32.560Well, so this administration has been very clear there will be no central bank digital currency, which I think would be the first step toward tracking.
00:18:16.300So I would encourage the House and the Senate to get clarity done.
00:18:21.680Hmm. All right. So I literally know like nothing about this. BJ, I'm going to come to you first.
00:18:27.820So, you know, to me, the only thing I really know about the digital currency is can't they just turn
00:18:32.980it off and then you can't get your money, although banks can just shut the door and you can't get
00:18:36.820your money either. So what do you think about what he said? I felt comforted by that. Yet I
00:18:41.820don't I don't know anything about it. Yeah. As somebody who just came back from speaking at a
00:18:46.100Bitcoin conference in Ireland. So I know a lot about this stuff. I've written a bunch of articles
00:18:50.420on CBDCs over the years. I don't think, I don't see it. I really don't. And that's just my window
00:18:58.580into being involved in government, running for office, understanding how the gears of the machine
00:19:03.420work. And not only do the regular people not want to be scrutinized, but people involved in money
00:19:11.000laundering, politicians, corrupt people who are involved in government, they don't want this
00:19:15.740either, right? Because once you put things on a public ledger, which is what Bitcoin is,
00:19:21.560the pseudo anonymous public ledger, then you have the ability to see where other people's
00:19:27.120money is going and flowing, right? So I think it just brings too much risk to the political
00:19:33.520establishment and knowing how they behave. You hear a lot to talk about it, of course,
00:19:38.900but the talk usually comes when Bitcoin's about to have a bull run. Once we start to get into a
00:19:45.520bull market all of a sudden you see all these articles oh yeah from always from the left that
00:19:50.480oh you know cbdc's and it just kind of gets everybody scared i don't really see it and uh
00:19:56.900and we can talk about bitcoin maybe another time but there is a very big difference between bitcoin
00:20:01.660and all the other um we call them altcoins which are run by foundations bitcoin itself has no
00:20:10.040government. No, it has no board of directors. There's no company. There's no CEO. There's
00:20:16.400nothing. Trying to ban Bitcoin would be like trying to ban the COVID virus. And it's pseudo
00:20:23.380anonymous. So that's kind of your best hedge right now. If you want privacy is to move
00:20:28.960into into the Bitcoin blockchain. So I call it the freedom protocol because it's not a
00:20:34.800coin, it's a protocol and it's just going to take people lots of time to really understand how this
00:20:41.060works, which is part of what I do with my audience is talk about Bitcoin. No one's yet been able to
00:20:46.680explain it to me in a way that I can understand. They'll always throw in some jargon here and there
00:20:52.560or an acronym and I'm like, and now you lost me. And so I feel like the majority of people in this
00:20:58.460world feel like I do. And so I just get like shut down. I don't even want to know or get involved
00:21:04.420because it's too confusing and now you're talking about my money and if i don't really understand it
00:21:09.320i don't want to get involved with it i don't want to have to have a degree to figure it out
00:21:12.700um so i i worry only because i truly don't understand it and i don't i don't know but i
00:21:19.760think a lot of the audience here probably knows a lot about it you guys are very smart
00:21:23.360and you're into all these things but um i wish the only follow-up erica is during the trucker
00:21:29.760protests. We raised cumulatively $25 million. All that money was seized by the government and
00:21:37.920through lawfare. The only money that was not seized was Bitcoin. And that's the only money
00:21:44.280that was distributed to the truckers. It was approximately $1 million that was directly
00:21:48.780distributed. And it's now worth $2 million. And that's when it proved its case in the Western
00:21:53.600world. So if you want freedom and sovereignty and you're afraid of government, you should be going
00:21:57.120in the direction of Bitcoin, not away from it. But maybe we should do that on our locals together.
00:22:02.140I would love that. Oh, my gosh. I would love because if you can get me to understand it
00:22:06.100and I'm going to be a pain in the neck, though, BJ, because I'm going to.
00:22:09.940OK, because I have so many questions and you might say something and I might say,
00:22:13.380back it up. I don't get that yet. So who who in the chat, the chats everywhere will do it on
00:22:19.140locals. It'll be a private stream. But, you know, would you really, really like to understand this
00:22:23.780world of Bitcoin, I think we're going to need to. So I would appreciate that personally.
00:22:30.540You'll watch it. Good. See, Bookish, you're with me. I think a lot of people are with me.
00:22:35.040I just get like, OK, yep. All right. Good. We're going to do it. We're going to do it.
00:22:38.740I love that. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. And if anyone wants to help out
00:22:42.700with that show, too, let us know if you're an expert. Jimmy Wyman, he already gives the talk.
00:22:47.800So, Jim, you'll be around. That'll be awesome. OK, good. And if you guys aren't on local,
00:22:51.740sign up what are you waiting for come on over oh and by the way youtube i see you guys over there
00:22:57.180saying we've joined as a community as the unbeloves well i just want to let you know
00:23:02.320we love you too so you're not technically unbeloved you are also loved okay um all right
00:23:09.560so marcella what what do you want to say about the bitcoin stuff i know you're savvy
00:23:14.080I don't have much to say. I don't see digital currency ever coming into fruition in the United States, not only because there would be a lot of opposition, but like BJ said, you would be able to see what other people do with their money.
00:23:35.260and i think that's where they love to hide is you know uh the fraud they they love to hide behind
00:23:44.140the fraud not all of us but there are people that do and if you do go to digital currency
00:23:49.500it's harder to hide um even bitcoin has been used um to be able to uh find certain criminals
00:23:59.580that use it. And it's been very easy to find them because unlike, you know,
00:24:05.080maybe you probably think differently, but Bitcoin is easy to, and crypto itself is sometimes easy
00:24:14.340for the CIA or the FBI to track certain people down.
00:24:29.580it's it's pseudo anonymous there's ways yes there's ways around that obviously like everything else
00:24:39.740but it's not but at the beginning of i guess at the beginning um there were like um certain people
00:24:49.820that thought it was fully anonymous which is why they didn't maybe do a good job about uh hiding
00:24:56.340their tracks initially it was before kyc but anyways we'll do we'll do that on local i love
00:25:01.380that awesome oh good i really would love to understand this so look forward to that you guys
00:25:06.660we'll we'll do that thanks bj all right so until i understand more i literally have nothing more
00:25:12.340to say about it because i don't know um marcella was there a story you wanted to touch on um
00:25:19.220Several stories, but one of them was the WhiteHouseAliens.gov website came online today.
00:25:27.940um the white house x page if you go on to it uh they posted a video of a border like the border0.87
00:25:39.380in there it's at night and there's a huge uh ufo flying machine um sucking up an immigrant
00:25:49.100an illegal immigrant i hope um and that was with with in the background with ymca so you know if0.61
00:25:59.420there's aliens around ymca i wish i had it it's so hard to explain it's like not so it's a it's a
00:26:05.480wall with an illegal immigrant we think walking on one side a ufo scoops them up and just plops
00:26:10.920them on the other side of the fence and like puts them back over the border while ymca plays yes0.74
00:26:16.120it's uh it's a troll if you if you were to go to the site i have to just read some of it you know
00:26:23.760it's kind of like the you go to aliens.gov and promise you it's it's not gonna happen do it after
00:26:32.080the show do it after but after the show do not do not change us um but it's basically kind of like
00:26:37.680star wars words that come on but more a la matrix uh and so it says they walk among us for 60 years
00:26:47.260the u.s government has kept a closely guarded secret aliens have been walking among us living
00:26:53.380in our neighborhoods and interacting with us on a daily in our daily lives they shopped in the
00:26:58.440same stores attended the same classes as our children and lived seemingly normal human
00:27:03.480existences with one exception they do not belong here and it goes on and on a little bit longer
00:27:12.140but and what it has so the the thing that the website has is an actual live map of ice raids
00:27:22.440and people being uh deported i think i i didn't check out the map too well but that's what it has
00:27:30.100I know you guys are seeing a lot of information about the ICE issue in New Jersey, in Newark, and we will talk about it unless anybody wants to say something about it right now, BJ or Marcella.
00:27:43.560But I'm hoping to have a guest on next week to talk about this situation with who could talk about it better because I'm literally paying zero attention to it.
00:27:56.440The Delaney Hall situation started, obviously, with NGOs, with, you know, it's organically created. And it happens that there is people inside in the detention center have started a hunger strike.
00:28:15.820And then outside there is lots of rioters, protesters, you know, just basically living there and protesting everybody that's there.
00:28:29.080But the funny part was a video that I don't know who filmed it, but I think Fox News showed it, is two, how would I say, Hispanic men walking out of the detention center, and they were getting really happy.
00:28:46.500The protesters were very happy about it.
00:28:49.080And it happens that they happen to work there.
00:32:57.500you may think it sucks but um you have to you can't just jump the line for everybody else but0.94
00:33:02.980everybody i know who's latino who's legal in the united states is like yeah good get them out you0.70
00:33:06.660know so my question is is uh well two things one uh the protesters are making it worse so you're
00:33:15.240making it worse like you're making people who didn't really have a dog in the fight or an opinion
00:33:19.720now not side with you because now these protesters are creating mayhem danger they're trashing
00:33:27.320you know new work not that it wasn't already trash thanks Cory Booker but you know you're
00:33:33.140making it so it's like you know what just get everybody out because this has to stop let them
00:33:37.840do their job you're just holding them up you're making it bigger and whatever you're not making
00:33:41.900it so new people are going to be sympathetic to their cause the people that were already
00:33:47.780sympathetic will stay that way and the other people who just want to live their lives are
00:33:52.000just going to get more aggravated but marcella if antifa isn't it designated a terrorist organization
00:33:58.600and why are they out there acting a fool i don't know if if the protesters there are antifa but
00:34:05.900um you are allowed well i i don't know for sure i guess i've not been watching it that closely0.79
00:34:13.420but if you you know under the first amendment you're allowed to protest in front of a
00:34:18.760uh you know as long as you're not violent you're allowed to protest the issue is that like you said
00:34:25.340the protesting does not help um these people but what does help is lawsuits but then again i'm the
00:34:35.240lawyer so i would say that um so andy wang aren't they uh antifa out there andy's a an attorney in
00:34:43.880New Jersey. Maybe he's following this more closely, but, um, I, I believe I heard that
00:34:49.400it's Antifa. So, um, we'll see, but, uh, all right. So should we move on from this? But I
00:34:55.140want to show you one other gem in New Jersey, New Jersey. Ooh, we are so extra. Um, okay.
00:35:01.860So this might start loud. I'm going to try to lower it, but this is a very self-explanatory
00:35:07.040self-explanatory story. Okay, Andy's not sure. Okay, let's listen to this gem. Ready?
00:35:14.280Adam Hamawi is seeking the Democratic nomination in New Jersey's 12th district,
00:35:18.680where the primary will likely determine the next member of Congress.0.86
00:35:22.300Hamawi was a close disciple of convicted terrorist Omar Abdel Rahman, the blind sheikh,
00:35:28.580spiritual leader of Bin Laden's terror network.
00:35:31.440Sheikh Abdul Rahman surrendered to federal authorities at a New York mosque today.
00:35:35.860The blind sheikh was convicted of conspiring to also blow up the United Nations headquarters,0.73
00:35:41.500a federal building, two tunnels, and a bridge.1.00
00:35:44.300Hamawi testified on his behalf during his 1994 trial and stands by him today.
00:35:49.820He had certain views that he spoke in certain forums, but that's not what he did every single day.0.71
00:35:54.660After leading terrorist organizations in Egypt and Afghanistan, the sheikh moved to the U.S.,0.98
00:36:00.480promoting in mosques a forcible conquest of the United States.0.98
00:36:04.800Hamawi met him at an event and attended his speeches in New Jersey.
00:36:08.320In 1991, he was one of six individuals who accompanied him to Detroit for an Islamist conference.
00:36:14.720According to Jewish Insider, in 1994, Hamawi volunteered in Bosnia with Benevolence International,
00:36:21.000a Serbian al-Qaeda front designated as a terrorist organization by the UN Security Council.
00:36:27.280That year, the sheikh was arrested for plotting attacks on New York landmarks.
00:36:31.700Hamawi testified that the year of the World Trade Center bombing, he told the
00:36:36.140sheikh, it is my spring break now. If you need anything, just give me a call.0.91
00:36:40.400From prison, Abd al-Rahman smuggled a fatwa to al-Qaeda leaders Osama bin Laden
00:36:45.860and Ayman al-Zawahiri, authorizing attacks against the U.S.0.84
00:36:50.820Tear them to pieces, destroy their economies, burn their corporations,
00:36:55.560destroy their peace, the fatwa said. Hamawi is a loyal follower of the sheikh.0.97
00:37:00.720He must have been charismatic enough for you to travel like that.
00:37:03.600Not just me, the entire community.0.98
00:37:05.080Amawi says the blind sheik was just a leader of his community, even though he led al-Qaeda in Egypt and other militant groups before coming to America.
00:37:13.620And so that's kind of taking things out of context.
00:37:17.100Anyone connected to a terrorist who planned to blow up New York and New Jersey has no place in the Democratic Party or in Congress.
00:37:26.440I mean, does that even need to be said?
00:37:29.340BJ, I'm coming right to you on this one.
00:50:45.800the history of armed conflict four weeks and a country decimated to that degree to that
00:50:52.000extent and now here we are at the end of that with the ram putting on the table a complete
00:50:58.180reopening of the straight as has been discussed and many other concessions that are going to
00:51:02.400be unveiled in the time to come but again there's no deal until there's a deal nothing's
00:51:07.880final till it's final and president has been clear that he reserves the option now or any
00:51:14.260in the future to do whatever is necessary to defend and protect America's national security.
00:51:21.640Okay, drop any emoji in the chat if Stephen Miller is so hot to you because he is such a
00:51:29.680brilliant community. Men and women, are you on fire for Stephen Miller? Don't be afraid. You
00:51:34.460can have a male crush on him too. And I want his Botox person. The man never moves from here to
00:51:42.080here he doesn't have Botox it's just Stephen Miller okay so Marcella carry on for us with
00:51:47.160this story please it's it's interesting that you played Stephen Miller because on the one side you
00:51:52.280have Stephen Miller saying we've destroyed everything we've you know we're going if there's
00:51:57.160a deal it's going to be a great deal or whatever you know but then you have uh other news uh from
00:52:03.800Al Jazeera, even Channel 1312 of Israel, even other Israel newspapers, they're not so, and
00:52:19.060Arabic or something, they're all saying different things.
00:52:25.540You know, one is saying there's a gridlock in the Strait of Hormuz, which there is.
00:52:29.120So I guess they point to different situations.
00:52:32.740I think it's a mix of everything. I think that the Strait of Hormuz is still on hold. There's still no agreement. But I do believe, like Stephen Miller points out, that the U.S. has weakened Iran greatly because of taking out the previous regime, the previous people in power, as well as hurt them through the Strait of Hormuz,
00:52:58.920not allowing these Iranian ships to move through and not being able to have this ability to keep
00:53:10.000their oil. They're doing it via train and all sorts of things. So eventually they will have
00:53:16.480to come to the table, which they are. So I'm very positive about it, but there are other,
00:53:22.680all i'm trying to say is that there's other viewpoints which aren't positive at all about it
00:53:29.200and and it's not um necessarily based on democrat republican i guess it's based on
00:53:35.540where you are in the world if you look at international papers which uh bj can tell us
00:53:40.840what canada would say about this whole is iran thing it would be very it's eye-opening that's
00:53:46.500so different? All right, tell us, BJ. Well, Canada is irrelevant. I mean, the first thing is Scott
00:53:52.940used to say something frequently. And he's so right. This is how I survived politics. If you
00:53:57.720know the news, you know nothing. If you know who the news is, you know everything. And, you know,
00:54:03.420we see this dichotomy of different opinions out of the Middle East. Often I see people on the left,
00:54:07.940they're always citing a news agency out of Israel called Haaretz. Haaretz is George Soros,
00:54:14.100which is ultra left communist he is the woke mob in israel so this woke mob nonsense this is in
00:54:22.120every western democracy including israel who's trying to deal with this propaganda stuff from
00:54:28.200the ultra left right uh so it's important and and canada is just done right canada doesn't have any
00:54:34.260uh media they have you know certain agents a couple of independent ones that i'm involved
00:54:38.620with. You know, I showed you before the National Telegraph, Erica, the one of today's the fifth
00:54:44.120anniversary of something significant. We'll talk about in a second. But I think people are often
00:54:48.740maybe confused why Iran is such a priority. And we'll talk in Scott Adams terms. Scott Adams
00:54:57.260always talked about systems, right? Systems versus linear thinking, for example. And which
00:55:03.620comes from Russell Ackoff. I discussed that on my stream where Scott got his whole systemization
00:55:09.100viewpoint from, which is fascinating. Today, for example, and every day, there's another example.
00:55:16.120There is a breaking story out of Argentina that the Argentinian Federal Chamber of Concession
00:55:22.240has definitively confirmed the seizure of assets belonging to former president,
00:55:28.000christina kushner and her children uh and this just it's irreversible and it goes on to explain
00:55:34.660it what is why is that important to understand again the system's approach to global politics0.92
00:55:40.600christina kushner is the reason milay got into power she is an ultra leftist communist1.00
00:55:46.360but she was also financed by hezbollah hezbollah is iran and the irgc so they have their tentacles0.66
00:55:54.980in countries causing chaos all over the western world because they're part of this global hijra
00:56:01.440to attack the big enemy is always america but do it through uh through other countries and0.79
00:56:09.480indirectly to get to america for america in the process so it is an attack on the civilized world
00:56:16.440from this collectivist ideology and again you don't have to hold up the sign erica
00:56:21.220not Muslims, Islamists, extremists, the ISIS literalist interpretation, purely driven by
00:56:29.900ideology. You know, I've discussed the four pillars of human motivation, rights, reward,
00:56:35.700ideology, coercion, and ego. They are 100% fueled by ideology. And that's what we're dealing with
00:56:41.700in the West. That's why there's such a threat. In this particular example, all the way up to
00:56:46.980the president's office this is around the amia bombing in argentina that is one of tens of
00:56:54.040thousands of examples and everybody in government who's seen how the gears of the machine work behind
00:57:01.040the scenes everyone knows it every parliamentarian knows it everybody intelligence knows it but the0.93
00:57:06.420general public doesn't because the islamists have been so effective in propagandizing people in the0.87
00:57:12.500west into this post-modern oppressor versus oppressed dichotomy where people are confused0.83
00:57:19.160who the bad guys are to the point they get become oikophobic and for those who don't know oikophobia
00:57:25.080is somebody who hates their own culture as opposed to xenophobia which hates an external culture so
00:57:31.240i think there's a lot of things at play and at the root of this is why i love scott so much
00:57:36.200is if you understand systems thinking you can take a systems approach to viewing the world
00:57:41.440geopolitically then iran makes complete sense and why it is such a priority in the west
00:57:46.600wow okay i mean i can't even really say too much because i'm i don't know like you're saying you
00:57:53.480know um and if anyone feels otherwise you know drop it in the chat you're allowed to your own
00:57:59.840opinion i have a stream at 11 o'clock oh yeah bj's on yeah he's on right after this and you're
00:58:05.180going to talk more about these things um so did you we only have a few minutes left did you want
00:58:10.260to say what the fifth anniversary or marcella did you want to say anything in response to that
00:58:14.080no just the oil prices have gone down thinking that there will be a deal um good you know we'll
00:58:22.360see okay and i think there's a lot of americans with oikophobia too by the way it's crazy yeah
00:58:29.560on the left of course um okay so bj it's the fifth anniversary of oh it is the uh well welcome to
00:58:36.820Canada. You want to talk about Canada? It's the fifth anniversary of the Chicken Land
00:58:40.380shooting slash assassination in a city called Mississauga, which is a suburb of Toronto.
00:58:47.400And what is that? Well, that was Canada's first ISIS attack in Canada. So three kids0.50
00:58:55.060that were radicalized by ISIS ideology. They went into a local like sandwich shop sort of thing,
00:59:02.420and they tried to execute the entire family.
00:59:07.500And you wonder, well, why would they do something so not nice?
00:59:11.900Well, the son of – this is why it's significant to understand the ideology behind this.0.65
00:59:17.980The son – the family was Drews, so not Jews with a J-E-W, Drews, D-R-U-E-Z-E.0.75
00:59:26.180Sorry. They, the Druze, the Druze kid, you know, you're a teenager, you find friends, all sorts of friends, find, you know, bad friends.1.00
00:59:37.020I did too, like everybody else. But his friends were basically ISIS motivated extremists and they convinced him to convert to Islam.0.84
00:59:47.080And this is all in court documents. And what they, what he started doing is working with them on their, their Amazon business.
00:59:53.820Are you going to make lots of money, buy Lambos, Bitcoin, whatever it was?
00:59:58.320And then he found out that they were taking their profits and funneling them to ISIS in Syria.
01:00:05.340And he decided, OK, maybe this is too much.
01:00:08.660I didn't actually want to get involved in joining the Islamic State and involved in terrorism funding.
01:00:15.200So he decided to convert back, which those of you who know extremist interpretation, that is a no-no.0.58
01:00:22.640So the retribution was these three kids who are working with them just went to the family business and tried to execute the entire family.0.65
01:00:30.860Got the kid. He unfortunately was killed.
01:00:39.260My editor and co-author of Honking for Freedom, John, who is a 30-year veteran of legacy media, he actually wrote a couple of pieces on this case.
01:00:49.940And the legacy media was there, never reported on it, didn't really care.
01:00:54.020Because God forbid, Canadians know there was an ISIS ring operating in Canada, people might get upset.
