Hi, can I get some extra fortune cookies, please? Like 30?
00:00:05.400
Oh, I get all my investment advice from fortune cookies.
00:00:09.620
See, it says come to BMO for any investment support you need.
00:00:17.440
Whether you're new to investing or pro, BMO is there on your financial journey.
00:00:30.000
Hi, I'm Chris Gethard, and I'm very excited to tell you about Beautiful Anonymous,
00:00:33.680
a podcast where I talk to random people on the phone.
00:00:45.960
I've talked with meth dealers on their way to prison.
00:00:47.920
I've talked to people who survived mass shootings.
00:00:52.640
Somebody who dresses up as a pirate on the weekends.
00:01:00.460
Recently, I appeared on the Piers Morgan Uncensored show.
00:01:04.240
Equating Facebook or Twitter with the government.
00:01:09.620
Mark Zuckerberg coming out and saying that now we're going to have more free speech or whatever
00:01:16.400
If we were actually going to see a pendulum swing in the other direction, they would keep
00:01:20.040
the fact checking program, ban the liberal news outlets and only allow conservative outlets
00:01:26.260
The topics were supposed to be about Elon Musk and Greenland, big tech.
00:01:32.760
But Tommy Robinson came up and Piers Morgan had some choice accusations about who Tommy
00:01:41.140
Because he's managed to position himself very cleverly as this kind of freedom fighter who's
00:01:46.180
only in prison because he blew the whistle and all this stuff.
00:01:49.020
So they've silenced him by putting him in prison.
00:01:52.080
And before we get into all that, the real story, of course, is not really about Tommy
00:02:00.580
It's about the covering up of what they call grooming gangs, one of the most shocking and
00:02:07.060
horrifying stories I have ever heard in my life.
00:02:11.520
This is a story about men who come from other countries and come to the UK and who have
00:02:17.820
systematically for decades abused young girls, predominantly young white British girls.
00:02:25.180
According to the Telegraph, this was covered up to protect the image of a successful multicultural
00:02:35.220
Now, when this story came up, Piers Morgan says Tommy Robinson is a thug who's been accused of
00:02:41.180
passport fraud and mortgage fraud and defamation.
00:02:44.720
He's not in prison related to anything to do with these grooming gangs.
00:02:52.340
Now, instantly, other panelists and Piers himself said, what did I get wrong?
00:02:58.080
Well, I got to be honest, guys, I'm not the biographer of Tommy Robinson.
00:03:04.160
I've talked to him on occasion, interviewed him about these issues.
00:03:07.320
But admittedly, I don't know a whole lot about the accusations made by Piers Morgan.
00:03:14.720
But let me tell you a little bit about what we're seeing.
00:03:17.240
And we're going to break down this story and talk about the actual claims against Tommy
00:03:21.700
Robinson, because I think it's important we actually address them.
00:03:26.180
Well, there are many people who are saying Tim Poole got schooled on who Tommy Robinson
00:03:35.600
When the Telegraph and other outlets are reporting that the UK government, from the police to the
00:03:41.380
highest levels, new little girls were being tortured.
00:03:46.360
In fact, the transcripts that got released from these court cases are so shocking.
00:03:57.980
I mentioned it on the Piers Morgan show because I'm livid.
00:04:01.580
Let me just put it as lightly as I can, because I know some of you listen to this podcast with
00:04:07.540
Devices were inserted into little girls so that room could be made for men.
00:04:14.020
That's putting it lightly, putting it very lightly.
00:04:18.300
We're talking about rooms full of 10 to 20 guys.
00:04:25.360
In some instances, the police arrested the fathers of the victims because there we have
00:04:32.860
If these men get arrested, well, you could be accused of being racist.
00:04:40.340
The reason why I said I don't believe you to Piers Morgan.
00:04:42.700
Well, it's because I'm looking at our president and how they accused him of criminal sexual
00:04:48.900
abuse, of committing fraud, civil fraud and falsifying business records.
00:04:53.780
And when we look at all the cases, we can see it's fake.
00:05:00.500
Maybe I don't know about Tommy, but I don't believe you because your government covered up
00:05:09.340
But let's take a look at everything that's being claimed.
00:05:11.200
Let's take a look at the greater details of what happened with this scandal.
00:05:17.360
For those of you that don't know what the grooming gangs are, the mainstream media claims
00:05:22.300
the issue first came to widespread public attention through media investigations, notably by the
00:05:27.240
Times in 2010, which exposed widespread child sexual exploitation in Rotherham, South Yorkshire.
00:05:34.820
Except Tommy Robinson founded the English Defense League in 2009 to bring attention to the
00:05:42.540
These grooming gangs are made up of majority Pakistani Muslim men that befriend young,
00:05:47.180
vulnerable girls with gifts, alcohol or drugs, followed by coercion into sexual acts,
00:05:55.600
These acts often occurred in taxis, hotels or houses, sometimes involving multiple abusers
00:06:04.820
Rotherham, a 2014 report by Professor Alexis Jay, concluded that around 1,400 children were
00:06:15.400
The report highlighted severe institutional failures by police and council services in
00:06:20.620
addressing the crimes, partly due to fears of being accused of racism.
00:06:26.220
Rockdale, similar patterns were found where girls were left at the mercy of grooming gangs
00:06:31.740
for years, with failures by local authorities noted.
00:06:36.400
Telford, another town where reviews indicated significant child sexual exploitation with little
00:06:45.160
Oxford, high profile convictions occurred after Operation Bullfinch revealed a network of abusers.
00:06:52.100
Now it is estimated that these gangs were operating in up to 50 different towns with upwards of 200,000
00:07:08.100
Hi, can I get some extra fortune cookies, please?
00:07:13.000
Oh, I get all my investment advice from fortune cookies.
00:07:17.060
See, it says come to BMO for any investment support you need.
00:07:25.040
Whether you're new to investing or pro, BMO is there on your financial journey.
00:07:37.800
Now it is being estimated that these grooming gangs are operating in at least 50 towns with
00:07:44.000
upwards of 200,000 young girls being exploited.
00:07:47.940
And in some instances, local police were complicit in covering up these crimes.
00:07:57.940
Recently, almost all of the Labour Party in the UK voted against a national inquiry into
00:08:05.200
Now, my friends, I live here in good old West Virginia.
00:08:14.700
One man who had been highlighting the scandal while most of the UK was covering it up.
00:08:21.500
His real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, goes by Tommy Robinson.
00:08:24.880
To deflect blame, and rather than focus on the problem, certain politicians in the media
00:08:29.420
turned their ire to Tommy while he's currently sitting in solitary confinement for nine months
00:08:35.420
But more than that later, the mainstream media have labeled Tommy a thug, a criminal, and
00:08:40.460
So let's talk about who Tommy is, and what is so awful about him.
00:08:44.480
I think I may have met Tommy once when I was in the UK.
00:08:49.880
And I know a lot of people who have worked with him.
00:08:54.460
And my assessment, I stand by what I said to peers.
00:09:03.520
But when you're talking about the systematic cover-up from the cops to the highest level of
00:09:10.700
That they're really going after Tommy for defamation?
00:09:14.500
Come on, they're locking the dude up in prison.
00:09:16.500
They accused him of inciting violence when he was on vacation.
00:09:20.000
And I was watching the news, and I saw nothing come from Tommy.
00:09:23.360
So while they may make all these claims about him, I don't know.
00:09:28.720
Let's break this all down, because this doesn't sound right.
00:09:33.520
He grew up in Luton, a small town in England, quickly went from being a normal British town
00:09:38.960
The white ethnic group makes up 45.2% of the population of Luton, meaning there's a non-white
00:09:45.940
The next largest ethnic group is Asian, which increased from 60,952 in 2011 to 83,325 in
00:09:55.320
The Asian, also known as Middle Eastern, that's how they describe it in the UK, the group
00:10:02.240
Over time, Tommy says his neighborhood changed drastically, and not in a good way.
00:10:10.700
Tommy took to the streets, organizing demonstrations, printing out leaflets, highlighting the problems
00:10:18.940
From there, he started a group called the English Defense League.
00:10:23.000
And this is where the slander starts, the slander of Tommy.
00:10:25.980
The English Defense League grew so big and spread to towns and cities became increasingly out
00:10:29.840
of control, and when Nazis infiltrated in 2013, Tommy disbanded the organization.
00:10:39.560
Before his activism, when he was about 19, in 2004, Tommy and his wife, then his girlfriend,
00:10:45.200
were having an argument, leaving a club and a bar, when an off-duty cop decided to physically
00:10:55.620
But Robinson was convicted of assault, occasioning actual bodily harm, and assault with intent
00:11:01.480
to resist arrest against an off-duty officer in July of 2004.
00:11:07.140
Robinson received sentences of 12 months and three months, which were served concurrently.
00:11:12.360
This is where the false allegations of woman abuse come into play.
00:11:15.240
People assume that Tommy was being physical with his girlfriend.
00:11:18.300
Had he been, he would have been arrested and charged for that.
00:11:21.360
However, there are no such charges on his record.
00:11:23.960
In September of 2011, at Preston Medstrate's court, Robinson was convicted of assault for
00:11:28.820
head-butting a man in Blackburn on the 2nd of April, 2011.
00:11:32.100
In November 2011, he was given a 12-week jail term, suspended for 12 months.
00:11:38.340
Nazis were never welcome and decided to cause trouble.
00:11:46.800
They were trying to string him up after he started the EDL.
00:11:49.580
Now, just like Trump, anxious to silence Tommy, they went routing through his whole life.
00:11:54.440
They found that a family member overinflated their wages and was given money for the down
00:12:01.380
Tommy was told if he took responsibility, they would stop going after his family, so he took
00:12:06.260
You can see from the court documents, he's not even the person that applied for the mortgage.
00:12:10.040
So Tommy lent his brother-in-law money to buy a house, and that's a crime two years after
00:12:21.000
Now, again, I don't need to sit here and defend Tommy Robinson.
00:12:28.360
But make sure you're criticizing him appropriately for things that are actually, I don't know,
00:12:36.200
Pierce Morgan wants to say, this guy's not some Nelson Mandela figure.
00:12:38.600
Oh, sure, Tommy's had his run-ins with the law, but I got to be honest, when I say I
00:12:46.920
They claim that Donald Trump engaged in civil fraud.
00:12:51.040
He went to the bank, and he overinflated the size of his penthouse.
00:12:55.620
Yeah, and they put him on trial for it, and they said he owes him hundreds of millions
00:13:00.980
The only problem, anybody who does real estate business knows, when you offer up a disclosure
00:13:09.580
We may have gotten some of these things wrong, and you have to do your due diligence.
00:13:14.520
The bank that gave the loans did their due diligence and said, hey, those numbers are
00:13:21.240
And the bank went, we're going to give you a little bit less money.
00:13:26.320
So I can't talk about every little detail or every little conspiracy theory, whatever.
00:13:34.600
Sure, Tommy Robinson may have gotten into a fight, but if he's not even listed as the
00:13:38.300
guy who bought the mortgage, for what purpose is any of this happening?
00:13:42.280
Now, I interviewed Tommy Robinson not that long ago.
00:13:44.060
I told him, bro, if you go back to the UK, they're going to arrest you.
00:13:47.920
Hi, can I get some extra fortune cookies, please?
00:13:53.440
Oh, I get all my investment advice from fortune cookies.
00:13:57.680
See, it says come to BMO for any investment support you need.
00:14:05.460
Whether you're new to investing or pro, BMO is there on your financial journey.
00:14:18.700
The dude was on vacation and they claimed he was inciting violence.
00:14:26.380
Robinson was charged with contempt of court and convicted.
00:14:29.500
According to Wikipedia, which, oh, yeah, we know it's super reliable.
00:14:33.160
It states he had filmed inside Canterbury Crown Court and posted prejudicial statements
00:14:38.220
calling the defendants Muslim child rapists while the jury was deliberating.
00:14:43.020
Judge Heather Norton said Robinson used pejorative language in his broadcast
00:14:46.000
and prejudged the outcome of the trial and could have had the effect of substantially derailing
00:14:51.340
Clearly, from the video, you can see that's not true.
00:14:54.720
The only people that said anything defamatory was the defendants.
00:14:57.520
Also notice some of these guys had their prison bags.
00:15:01.140
The defendants were there to receive sentencing.
00:15:03.500
The whole thing about collapsing a trial was a farce.
00:15:05.480
When you look at the facts, it appears Tommy was convicted of journalism.
00:15:09.360
Yeah, he was there highlighting the issue that they had been trying to cover up.
00:15:16.620
He checked with the court on the day that he filmed.
00:15:20.220
There was no court reporting restrictions posted as are supposed to be on the courtroom door.
00:15:24.300
And the clerk said that there was none that they were aware of.
00:15:27.660
Then all he did was ask, how do you feel about your verdict?
00:15:33.400
And if it was with the UK speech laws, he would have been arrested for that.
00:15:37.860
Instead, he was originally arrested without reason.
00:15:40.580
Then the charge changed to breach of the peace and causing emotional stress to the defendants.
00:15:44.600
18 hours later, they finally went with breach of court reporting restrictions.
00:15:49.560
To follow came the lies that Piers Morgan repeated.
00:15:52.920
Not to mention he served time for this only to have a judge eventually say that the government was wrong.
00:15:58.800
Additionally, the trial was never at risk of collapse.
00:16:04.680
Piers didn't mention that the case was adjourned after two months of solitary confinement
00:16:08.780
and referred back to the attorney general only never to be brought again
00:16:15.760
Look, I remember watching videos of Tommy Robinson coming out of prison,
00:16:25.740
Whatever you want to claim about the guy, there's videos I've seen.
00:16:30.200
And we know the UK government covered this up and the Labour Party does not want an inquiry.
00:16:37.860
That some guy is massively famous with huge rallies accidentally?
00:16:43.360
He's just some guy who engages in fraud and con artistry that tricked his way into rallying all of these people
00:16:50.320
to call out a widespread problem that the mainstream media now admits was happening the whole time?
00:17:04.920
I can only convey what I've seen, what I've read, what I've learned.
00:17:11.180
I think the issue is that Tommy draws attention.
00:17:16.360
And when you're desperately trying to cover this up because you don't want to appear racist,
00:17:20.720
why would you let this guy keep doing what he's doing?
00:17:24.060
Truth be told, then, how would anyone stop him?
00:17:27.260
Well, as I said, truth be told, they'd stop him exactly in this way.
00:17:33.420
I've never interacted with Tommy in any way having anything to do with these accusations against him.
00:17:39.100
Again, I don't know a lot about the guy, but I interviewed him, and we talked about an issue that was important.
00:17:47.720
If Piers or anybody else wants to insult Tommy, my response is, so what?
00:17:56.340
Explain to me why the one guy that was leading rallies to call out the systemic rape of children was getting locked up and silenced and put in jail.
00:18:18.180
At least we had one con artist, according to you, willing to speak up and inform someone like me.
00:18:39.040
The things they were doing to these children, man.
00:18:43.280
They fill me with a rage I have never experienced.
00:18:47.520
Man, there's so much dirty stuff in this world.
00:18:52.700
At least I can thank the con artist for letting me know.
00:18:55.500
Because I would not have known about this if it were not for him.
00:19:05.920
And I'd be like, at least the bank robber told me the truth.
00:19:09.800
I'm so sick of these people who lie, cheat, and steal.
00:19:14.880
When they say Tommy's not this figure, I'm like, whatever, man.
00:19:23.520
So let's break down why he's actually in prison right now.
00:19:25.860
Back in 2018, a video went viral of a boy pouring water over a Syrian kid's face in a playground.
00:19:31.140
The whole world attacked the white boy, Bailey, calling him racist.
00:19:35.520
Tommy started getting messages about the Syrian child was the instigator.
00:19:39.720
Tommy drove to the town, met with Bailey and his mother to get his side of the story.
00:19:43.800
This was a simple playground fight that had been elevated to national attention because of the boy's ethnicity.
00:19:48.100
I actually have a personal source who says they were there during the interview and the family was terrified and there were Muslim men surrounding them.
00:20:00.300
It's just like the Covington kid scandal, including Piers Morgan.
00:20:03.900
Piers admitted that he made a mistake after reading the court transcripts from Tommy's trial, claiming the incident was not race-induced.
00:20:10.000
Tommy took to Bailey's defense and conducted interviews all across the town where this occurred.

00:21:43.140
Akunji, defense attorney for the UK ISIS bride, was quick to jump on a case of defamation, suing Tommy for over one million.
00:21:50.380
The judge in this case dismissed the five witnesses Tommy brought, most of which were children that traveled hours to London under threat of backlash from the Muslim community,
00:21:58.540
some of which didn't even agree with Tommy's politics, only to have the judge claim their stories didn't hold up.
00:22:04.160
Also conveniently left out was that the Syrian boy brought a knife and a screwdriver to school and his school records were not considered.
00:22:11.520
Tommy told the court they did a documentary with all the evidence he presented and what he wasn't allowed to present was ready to go for the public.
00:22:18.520
The judge banned Tommy from releasing the documentary under penalty of contempt of court.
00:22:24.160
Tommy believed it was in the public interest to release this information to make sure people knew.
00:22:29.200
Thanks to Elon Musk restoring Tommy's account, his documentary silenced has 150 million views.
00:22:37.020
And then the attorney general, politically appointed, decided to bring the contempt charges.
00:22:42.720
It's clear that Tommy is in prison for speech because it's speech they don't like.
00:22:50.540
But as a Telegraph reported, they covered this up.
00:22:54.460
So when Tommy puts out a documentary, how am I supposed to believe he is this evil man you claim him to be?
00:23:01.680
Now, it's important to know Tommy was never arrested for leading a riot.
00:23:04.220
Not to mention with UK speech laws on hate speech, Tommy has never been arrested for hate speech.
00:23:09.880
Seems to me when you look into the guy, he's not a perfect saint or anything like that.
00:23:19.640
He's speaking out on issues that they don't want him to speak out on.
00:23:24.400
They want to create an image of successful multiculturalism.
00:23:28.120
And you can't have a working class guy coming around rallying people to call out the government in this way.
00:23:35.440
As the saying goes, I'll paraphrase it, but it's dangerous to be right in places where the government is wrong.
00:23:44.420
In an empire of lies, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
00:23:49.040
I am not somebody who simply looks at the headline and says, thus it is true.
00:23:57.400
Yeah, they were standing in the Lincoln Memorial.
00:23:59.500
A Native American started banging a drum in a kid's face.
00:24:07.940
Tell me that Tommy Robinson did this, that or otherwise.
00:24:17.420
But I will then say, as I've already stated, oh, thank you, con man, for informing me of the evils and the depravity of the UK government.
00:24:37.000
And there's a problem here in the US, too, especially with our illegal immigration.
00:24:40.440
And there are governments, be it the US or the UK, that are covering up these crimes.
00:24:47.060
We know in the United States, thanks to Dr. Phil, of all people, that children are being pulled across the border with numbers on their arms.
00:24:55.480
And CBP officers are sending them to sex traffickers.
00:25:06.260
Piers Morgan tells me these things on his show.
00:25:08.120
I say, fine, but we don't believe you, because here in the United States, when we deal with these problems, the Democrats, neocons, the government, they lie about it.
00:25:22.360
Thirty four felony counts, despite the fact those felony counts are beyond their statute of limitations.
00:25:26.420
And then when I see a facsimile in the UK, my conclusion is.
00:25:33.820
Stands to reason you are liars and you are covering up for evil.
00:25:46.880
But don't you dare come to me and insult my intelligence.
00:25:50.920
Yes, OK, because we know what was going on in the UK.
00:25:59.220
Like I said, 2017, I remember watching those videos of Tommy Robinson.
00:26:03.040
Him being on the ground made me aware of the depravity that was happening in the UK.
00:26:07.680
And they lock him up and they tell me it's a coincidence.
00:26:18.900
We got a great episode coming up, TimCast IRL tonight.
00:27:18.900
Hi, can I get some extra fortune cookies, please?
