Member of the AFD Party, Marie Therese Kaiser, joins the show to talk about her experience with the secret police in Germany and why she thinks the country is becoming more Republican. She also talks about her recent conviction for sedition.
00:00:53.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:47.000Tell us what is going on in your country and also the status of your criminal case where you were targeted and had to pay a fine for what exactly.
00:02:05.000I had to pay €6,000 for asking a critical question on social media to the illegal immigration and the migration crisis in Germany because politicians wanted to get refugees from Afghanistan without any...
00:02:25.000Background check or security check to Germany, and I asked them whether they wanted to have a welcome culture for rapists, group rapists, because statistically speaking, the Afghan refugees are proportionately more committing sexual crimes.
00:02:50.000So, yeah, that was the case, and I got fined.
00:02:57.000But I had an interesting experience because during this election campaign right now, I had a panel discussion at a school and I got asked by a student about my conviction for sedition.
00:03:12.000And yeah, what I didn't know was that the state security service was in the audience and secretly recording my statement.
00:03:22.000And then they reported it to the public prosecutor's office to initiate an investigation against me again, just because I told the student why I got convicted in the past.
00:03:36.000So, yeah, that's the situation in Germany.
00:03:41.000I mean, I hope everyone understands Germany is not a free society, does not embrace freedom of speech, which brings us to the immediate election this Sunday.
00:03:52.000You are a member of the AFD party, which has come under major sanctions and major investigations by your own government.
00:04:03.000What is happening this Sunday and what are the stakes of your upcoming election?
00:04:09.000I think there is a lack of political will from the other parties to really initiate political change because the perpetrators are not deported.
00:04:21.000They do not even receive harsh punishments.
00:04:25.000Instead, authorities are dealing with Prosecution of opinion crimes and alleged hate speech.
00:04:35.000And they are also trying to ban and persecute us as AFD as the largest opposition to the prevailing politics and the second strongest political force in the country, we have to say.
00:04:49.000So millions of voters support our positions.
00:04:53.000And I'm really curious for the election results on Sunday.
00:04:59.000Yeah, so what are the major issues that are going to be in contention for this upcoming federal election?
00:05:06.000Yeah, I think the migration and refugee crisis is the top issue in these elections, because more and more people are realizing the dramatic conditions, not only in the bigger cities, but also in the villages on the countryside.
00:05:27.000I mean, we had three major terror attacks which occurred the last months during the election campaign.
00:05:39.000Speaking of Magdeburg, Aschaffenburg and also Munich.
00:05:43.000And in addition to that, we also had hundreds of knife crimes.
00:05:47.000So it's obvious that the Great Replacement is happening and it's the sad reality that everyone is...
00:05:58.000It is a true crisis happening, and yet your party gets smeared as a Nazi party and the worst possible things.
00:06:09.000Educate our American audience of the smears that your party has to receive.

00:08:25.000If I, as a visitor, or let's just say someone who is native to Germany, were to go out in public and criticize mass migration, if they were to say that mass migration makes your cities dirtier, if it increases rapes and crime, what could happen to that individual?
00:09:13.000But help me understand, though, what decisions were made that resulted in the erosion of freedom of speech in Germany?
00:09:24.000I think that the political parties in charge right now, they made some new laws and also made stronger laws to just...
00:09:41.000Go after people who participate in free speech and especially online because we have a new authority who is just looking what people are writing online.

00:17:50.000So just kind of give us a perspective first and foremost, and I want to get into the gold bars.
00:17:54.000What is your vision for the EPA from a conservative pro-growth perspective?
00:18:01.000Our Powering the Great American Comeback Initiative focuses on five pillars.
00:18:06.000Number one is President Trump talks about...
00:18:09.000We need to be focused on pursuing clean air, land, and water for all Americans.
00:18:13.000That's pillar number one, first and foremost.
00:18:16.000But there are several other pillars that the American public voted for last November that we take close to heart.
00:18:22.000One is unleashing energy dominance, permitting reform, making America the AI capital of the world, bringing back American auto jobs.
00:18:32.000President Trump talks about ushering in a new golden age, a golden era of success, and that's something that we want to do our part.
00:18:41.000So this past Friday, President Trump at the Oval Office signed an executive order announcing his National Energy Dominance Council.
00:18:48.000I was there with Secretary Wright, Secretary Burgum, Secretary Duffy, and others.
00:18:54.000President Trump doesn't want to spend...
00:18:57.000Just four years trying to get all of these goals accomplished.
00:19:01.000He wants to get this stuff done in a matter of weeks and months.
00:19:05.000So with that level of urgency, we're all in to do our part here at EPA. Let's play Cut 134. This got some headlines.
00:19:13.000Let's play Cut 134. Hi, this is EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin.
00:19:17.000One of my very top priorities at EPA is to be an excellent steward of your hard-earned tax dollars.
00:19:25.000There will be zero tolerance of any waste and abuse.
00:19:29.000An extremely disturbing video circulated two months ago featuring a Biden-EPA political appointee talking about how they were tossing gold bars off the Titanic, rushing to get billions of your tax dollars out the door before inauguration day.
00:19:46.000Shockingly, roughly 20 billion of your tax dollars We're parked at an outside financial institution by the Biden EPA. And it was purposefully designed to obligate all of the money in a rush job with reduced oversight.
00:20:03.000So some people actually thought it was gold bars, for the record.
00:20:07.000However, it's very good branding there.
00:20:22.000Just earlier today, I was reading the grant agreement.
00:20:25.000On page one of a grant agreement, it was saying that the grant for $2 billion of funds.
00:20:32.000On page 6 of that grant agreement, it says that the grantee has 90 days to complete a training called, you won't believe this, Charlie, it's called How to Develop a Budget.
00:20:56.000I've read now the financial agent agreement, the account control agreements, the legal reviews.
00:21:01.000They were amending account control agreements just days before Inauguration Day.
00:21:06.000So that video where that Biden-EPA political appointee was talking about tossing, throwing gold bars off the Titanic, they actually were, not to...
00:21:16.000What is just a few hundred thousand or a few million?
00:21:20.000We're talking about tens of billions of dollars, tens of billions of tax dollars.
00:21:25.000I've been working with the Justice Department, the Treasury Department, and others.
00:21:30.000We want to make sure that there's full accountability and oversight established here.
00:21:35.000There's zero tolerance for waste and abuse in the Trump administration.
00:21:40.000Can you explain the nexus between left-wing NGOs and government money?
00:21:44.000So the way that this was designed, once Congress appropriated tens of billions of dollars here to pass through the EPA, eight entities as primary recipients would receive all $20 billion as a pass-through.
00:22:02.000And then once that money was passed through those eight primary recipients, they would go to a bunch of subgrantees, and in many respects, those subgrantees were also pass-throughs.
00:22:14.000And these were NGOs that were very well-connected, and in some respects, extremely newly set-up organizations where they have never handled anywhere close to this level of money.
00:22:30.000To the point where you have to work into the grant agreement training on how to develop a budget.
00:22:35.000So this is something that shouldn't have been set up from the get-go.
00:22:40.000The entire scheme is something that is designed for waste and abuse.
00:22:44.000And get this, Charlie, once the money passes through those eight primary recipients and moves on to those sub-grantees, EPA isn't even a party to the account control agreement.
00:23:08.000The financial agent agreement, September 18th.
00:23:11.000The account control agreement is November 1st.
00:23:13.000The legal review on all of this is done on Election Day, November 5th.
00:23:18.000And as I pointed out earlier, they were still amending these things January 13th, just a few days before the inauguration.
00:23:24.000Last I'll say is this, if you don't mind.
00:23:26.000Up front, the $20 billion was given out.
00:23:31.000It wasn't like they gave out some tranche of money and then over the course of time, the grantees coming back to the government and the government is signing off based on past performances and accountability and proposals for the future.
00:23:45.000The government gave out the $20 billion in the onset and said, here you go.
00:23:56.000How many EPA staff are there and how many were going into the office before?
00:24:01.000So the total amount of the EPA, the numbers were over 15,000.
00:24:06.000And one of the things that I asked when I first came in, it was three weeks ago today, I wanted to know what the numbers looked like as far as attendance inside of headquarters over the course of the last year or so.
00:24:21.000So since January of 2024, The average attendance rate on Mondays and Fridays was about 5% to 8%.
00:24:30.000The most that the EPA headquarters had on any single day, like the record attendance, was that there was one day where attendance hit 37%.
00:25:17.000And now after the flooding that just took place in Kentucky, we just received a FEMA mission assignment to help with that removal, and we are on it.
00:25:25.000So we have a lot of important work here at EPA. We want to make the American public proud.
00:25:36.000The premise of the EPA should be to develop and to explore the liquid gold, as President Trump would say.
00:25:44.000How do we balance that while being environmentally conscious, also having an expedited agenda to have the most energy-dominant country on the planet?
00:25:59.000President Trump, in that executive order that he signed on Friday...
00:26:03.000Created this National Energy Dominance Council where we had multiple agencies all standing there represented by myself, Secretaries Wright, and Bergam, and Duffy, and other members of the cabinet there to announce this collaboration, this partnership.
00:26:20.000President Trump spoke about Constitution Pipeline, which was stopped by New York utilizing an EPA rule.
00:26:30.000Which needs to get looked at because this was a really important project, and as President Trump pointed out, can get done at this point in less than a year.
00:26:39.000So President Trump wants to greenlight it.
00:26:42.000We need to ensure that we are not holding back that level of progress and that we are in touch with American innovation.
00:26:50.000That we understand that over the course of the last couple decades, emissions have gone down here in the U.S., that we provide these forms of energy cleaner.
00:27:00.000than so many other countries all around the world.
00:27:03.000And America sits on all of these important resources that we will tap into in a way that is better for the environment than so many other places around the world.
00:27:14.000So if you care about the environment, we shouldn't be relying on all of these countries elsewhere.
00:27:21.000And not only will we be doing a better job in protecting the environment, it's important for our national security, it's important for our economy.
00:27:29.000And we'll be delivering on what the American public demanded last November 5th.
00:27:33.000President Trump wrote an executive order saying, we need to have water standards flow pertaining to sinks, showers, toilets, and washing machines.
00:27:46.000This is something that President Trump...
00:27:49.000He didn't waste any time on, and he wants EPA and the Department of Energy to work together.
00:27:56.000So at EPA, there are voluntary standards created through something called the WaterSense program, which we have already started working on overhauling.
00:28:05.000It could start as voluntary, but when government starts partnering with the private sector and these different companies start adopting these federal Biden-era standards, then all of a sudden...
00:28:17.000The implementation with the product that American consumers are out there purchasing ends up being adapted to what the Biden EPA had set out.
00:28:26.000So President Trump wants us to look at the standards, which is what we're doing.
00:28:29.000He wants us to overhaul them, which we are.
00:28:31.000And there are rules that the Department of Energy are looking to overhaul.
00:28:37.000Secretary Wright has already gotten his people cranking on all of that.
00:29:47.000Their candidate program is 100% free and confidential, so my closest friends have used Selective Search, and let me tell you, they're meeting incredible women.
00:30:59.000So, like, I was at a friend's birthday party in LA, just a birthday dinner, and it was, like, a nice, quiet dinner, and everything was...
00:31:05.000Everyone was behaving normally, and I happened to mention...
00:31:08.000This was before the election, like, a month or two before.
00:31:10.000I happened to mention the president's name, and it was like they got shot with a dart in the jugular that contained, like, methamphetamine and rabies, okay?
00:32:18.000I'm laughing here, but it is not funny.
00:32:21.000This country is moving very rapidly under Trump into an authoritarian form of society.
00:32:28.000Elon Musk is clearly running the show, the wealthiest person in the world who has enormous conflicts of interests, who is helping to fund right-wing extremist organizations all over the world.
00:32:43.000Who is looking forward to get massive tax breaks from Congress.
00:34:03.000So Donald Trump and the Republicans have remade the electorate.
00:34:06.000They've turned some people over from being Democrats or independents to become Republicans.
00:34:10.000New folks have entered the electorate who are more Republican-leaning.
00:34:13.000And so when you combine that with the fact that Republicans are really, really behind Donald Trump...
00:34:18.000All of a sudden you get a winning recipe whereby you break the normal rules of politics and give Donald Trump that positive net approval rating.
00:34:25.000There are more Republicans than Democrats in this country and we're only going to keep going.
