Transcript
00:13:29.220
And we are live. What's up, guys? Welcome to Debrief, special edition. I'm here with the J6ers.
00:13:33.500
Guys, without any further ado, I know we got a lot of international people, but this is the United States of America.
00:13:38.000
So I want to see a bunch of American flags in the chat and stand for the national anthem, and then we're going to get into the broadcast.
00:15:59.000
I'm a dating relationship coach for men and political prisoner.
00:16:08.000
I love the local chapter here in Miami of the Proud Boys, and I was sentenced to 22 years, and just about a month and change ago, I was pardoned by the President Trump.
00:16:19.140
I used to be the president of Seattle chapter at Proud Boys, and I switched over and moved over here, and now I'm Vice City.
00:16:33.860
I was released, not with a pardon, but a commutation.
00:16:39.320
And then, Gary, you were there that day as well.
00:16:44.680
I was at Trump's last speech in 2021 when he was president, and I saw a whole bunch of people going down to the Capitol, and I was like, when the hell have we ever seen a revolution start with flags?
00:17:04.680
So I guess we can kind of go through that day, because there's been so many different stories and narratives when it comes to January 6th and what happened.
00:17:15.020
Obviously, I look at you guys as political prisoners.
00:17:17.300
When Trump came into office on January 20th, and one of the first things he did was pardon 1,500 guys, that's obviously very powerful.
00:17:24.420
And it goes to show that there was some problematic situations with the justice system when it came to your guys' political persecution.
00:17:35.040
Luckily, we got Cash Patel in as director of the FBI, and Dan Bongino is his number two guy, so hopefully they clean house and get rid of some of these dickheads that use the justice system as weaponization.
00:17:50.780
We're like, all right, we're good with that one.
00:17:51.780
Yeah, you know, the weaponization of the Department of Justice was absolutely obvious, man, and everybody knows it.
00:17:56.720
So I don't know who wants to go first, so they can kind of take us through their experience.
00:18:00.140
Because all you guys were at different places on that day.
00:18:04.660
I mean, I don't want to start off, because you're like, oh, well, tell me what happened there that day.
00:18:10.860
Let me start with whoever wants to go first on that day.
00:18:14.280
So I had a show after the—it started off around COVID, but after the election theft, it really started to kick off on Twitter using Periscope at that time called COVID Cabal.
00:18:24.840
So I had a bunch of guys who were watching the show.
00:18:32.080
We got in to see Trump's speech, got in at the very, very beginning of that, basically all the way in the front where the VIP stuff was, watched the speech.
00:18:40.720
It was super delayed, which was kind of weird unto itself.
00:18:45.320
We were waiting out there for the speech like well over an hour and a half beyond what it was supposed to be.
00:18:53.220
Trump said, go down to the Capitol, peacefully, patriotically protest, right?
00:18:59.180
We find out on the way down there that basically Pence isn't going to be sending the votes back to the states.
00:19:07.140
If I'm getting to the Capitol and I see people running from the Capitol screaming and I can see smoke in the distance and I'm asking people what's going on.
00:19:18.020
They said the police started attacking us out of nowhere and I'm already in a pissed off state.
00:19:23.780
You know, I've already been kind of in like this like revolutionary agitating mode of my show.
00:19:29.220
I saw that there was a crowd of people going in, flags, as Gary was saying, just flags as far as the eye can see.
00:19:36.060
Gary probably picked up the right message from it, but I was really caught up in that fervor.
00:19:43.360
I found out later on, I was actually very close to the, I was in the group that Ashley Babbitt was in.
00:19:50.480
I didn't know who she was and I didn't see her, but I ended up going upstairs when we got to the, basically the doors of the congressional chambers.
00:20:03.660
And as I come back downstairs on the other side, I have these plainclothes police officers with guns pointed at me.
00:20:12.720
I have no idea what's going on because when I was in the Capitol, the cops were really chill.
00:20:22.240
I think, you know, as we hear the other stories, you know, it's Ethan's story and everything about how it was really different at different points.
00:20:29.180
Like I heard that the police attacked people and I saw footage later on that they did.
00:20:33.660
But then there was like a big stand down, I guess, because when I came into the Capitol, I thought that the police were actually with us.
00:20:40.500
And this was in documented evidence in my trial.
00:20:43.260
I had like text messages to people because they were like waving us through.
00:20:49.520
Was this Capitol Police waving you guys through, right?
00:20:52.140
And then all of a sudden it was like, we just shot one of you.
00:20:55.620
Like it was, it was totally, it was really hard to understand.
00:20:58.940
And our emotions were getting thrown back and forth.
00:21:07.740
I went and talked to a regular police officer afterwards.
00:21:10.520
I said, you know, what the fuck is going on here?
00:21:22.660
But I, when I came back around the corner, I could see that there was like tear gas all
00:21:28.320
Do you remember seeing Ashley Babbitt at all personally?
00:21:31.480
Or did you just realize this after when you viewed Discovery or something like that?
00:21:33.860
It was just, it was just at the trial during Discovery.
00:21:35.860
Because I could see that I was in the same group as her.
00:21:40.720
And even footage that they used that they got from her, her situation was used in my trial.
00:21:45.960
I think there's a lot of situations like that where it's kind of like a godsend.
00:21:50.560
Because just with the energy, a lot of us saw like grandmas and mothers that were getting
00:21:56.520
We're not practicing de-escalation tactics, rather escalation tactics.
00:22:01.240
And so, I mean, in the heat of the moment, especially if you had a group of just men like
00:22:06.000
all of us in one place and you'd seen an individual use lethal forces as his first response, I
00:22:13.220
think there would have been a very different reaction.
00:22:15.220
And I think, I mean, it's horrible that what happened to Ashley Babbitt happened, of course.
00:22:20.420
But I'm glad that we weren't there because it would have been.
00:22:26.000
If we, if I think if Ethan or myself would have been there, it would have escalated.
00:22:30.980
I saw it, you know, I saw the clip a bunch of times.
00:22:33.600
We had Ivan Raiklin here, a constitutional lawyer, you know, I was just on the phone
00:22:41.680
But we went over this in like detail when it came to, you know, what went down that
00:22:46.720
We watched it on video, which, by the way, if any of you guys are interested, go watch
00:22:49.460
that episode if you guys want to see the legality of, you know, how these guys were politically
00:22:53.620
But the long story short is when we looked at that shooting, it was like there was no justification
00:23:18.780
So he got arrested, but then Biden pardoned him on his way.
00:23:31.640
Because I've never even heard of anything like this before Joe Biden started doing this.
00:23:37.300
But they purposely, it's very vague in the Constitution.
00:23:46.040
That whole section of the Constitution is very vague.
00:23:47.480
So in that case, the Supreme Court has to see if that's actually legal to do.
00:23:53.340
The Supreme Court has to decide if they can preemptive pardon, and if they can't, Tom's
00:23:59.640
I think that there's going to have to be some investigation of that, or like litigation
00:24:03.300
of that, because prior to this, prior to Biden's last-minute pardons, the only time you've
00:24:08.380
ever seen a preemptive pardon was, or rather a blanket pardon, not even a preemptive pardon,
00:24:16.780
And it was, even that was very specifically oriented, said, okay, anything in these years
00:24:21.240
related to Watergate, but Biden pardoned people, like blanket pardoned for things that
00:24:26.320
they didn't even, there wasn't ever, so it's anything, anything you did for 10 years.
00:24:31.420
I don't know if that's a constitutional person.
00:24:33.280
Yeah, and his son wasn't just like a basic pardon, like, hey, I'm just going to pardon
00:24:39.400
He gave him a blanket pardon for, yeah, and I think it was like 10 years, right?
00:24:47.680
Not only his whole time in Burisma, but we also saw like other Biden members get pardoned
00:24:52.860
also, ones that we didn't even know existed, so there was something there, there.
00:24:58.420
Just the amount of times his genitalia was mentioned in the trial is hilarious.
00:25:03.560
I mean, it's a dumpster fire of a situation, and just like, yeah, don't worry about, nothing
00:25:10.420
I'm not going to blame him for partying in the sun.
00:25:14.140
You would have made a great crowd boy, to be honest.
00:25:16.780
As a father, like as a father, that is your main goal in life is to make sure that your
00:25:24.560
And he's going to join the Proud Boys, I think, from what I understand.
00:25:31.000
I don't know about the pedophilia, but he might be really good to party with.
00:25:36.220
Didn't he say he's like the person that has smoked the most Parmesan cheese in history?
00:25:42.580
Because he like dropped it on the rug, and he thought the Parmesan cheese was crap.
00:25:52.000
That's a few people come to mind when I think of that, yeah.
00:25:53.640
The criminal and the degenerate in the same family.
00:26:00.640
So how much time did you think you spent in the Capitol altogether?
00:26:05.720
I sat down in the rotunda for like probably about eight minutes, and then I listened to
00:26:10.640
his speech, and then they tried to clear everybody out.
00:26:12.920
You said when the police officer told you, you know, hey, get out of this area, did you
00:26:19.360
I mean, you know, the prosecution tried to make it seem like I didn't because even though
00:26:24.960
I went to the exit, I sat down on a bench right outside the exit and just chilled for
00:26:36.960
But I mean, when they started to clear out the area, like I just walked out with everybody
00:26:41.220
Like there was no, you know, the whole thing was a clown show.
00:26:45.520
It's crazy because, so you were in there, you said 44 minutes.
00:26:48.200
I was in there for 27, didn't go past the rotunda.
00:26:51.900
And I only went in there because my phones were dead, everything.
00:26:59.940
We did a live stream when we were in D.C. and I kind of, I kind of showed people literally
00:27:04.320
just touching a fence was enough force to give us terrorism.
00:27:07.780
Just to tell you like my story on where I was on January 6th, I got arrested on January
00:27:14.560
4th for burning a Black Lives Matter banner, right?
00:27:18.840
And I knew I was going to get arrested going into D.C.
00:27:24.940
I went into D.C. knowing full well that I was going to get arrested.
00:27:27.880
So what I planned is, that's why I bought my flight on January 4th.
00:27:33.680
I go to, I go to, in front of the judge on January 5th.
00:27:36.460
She bonds me out because D.C. is a no cash bail state, right?
00:27:41.380
So I'm like, and then I'll go see the president speak on January 6th, which was our plan, right?
00:27:46.800
And, you know, the judge threw a cog, a wrench in my cog.
00:27:51.580
And it's like, well, on top of bonding out, I am going to order you to get out of the district.
00:28:02.960
I was just going to go see the president speak.
00:28:06.120
You know, I'll just spend the day in the hotel.
00:28:07.660
And when these guys are done watching the president speak, like, I'll just go meet them or they'll come meet me because I can't be in the district.
00:28:17.960
So, but that wasn't what the prosecutor, the prosecutor.
00:28:24.040
They alleged that I was the mastermind and I was responsible.
00:28:29.440
And we were responsible for every single person that walked into that building.
00:28:34.140
Every single person that put their hands on a police officer.
00:28:38.760
Those, we were responsible for everything that happened that day.
00:28:43.480
They called us the ultimate leaders of what happened that day on January 6th.
00:28:48.760
And I actually find that, I do find that very flattering.
00:28:54.040
And it sounds like we're like some fucking Bond villains or some shit like that.
00:28:58.380
But the thing is, I can't even say that because it's not true.
00:29:03.020
What we planned is to go see the president speak.
00:29:04.960
I had to go speak on two stages after the president spoke.
00:29:08.280
And then we had, in his Airbnb, we had the lead singer, The Misfits, Michael Graves.
00:29:14.580
He was going to do like a little unplugged session for us.
00:29:17.240
So like what did this jury think that we were going to overthrow the U.S. government at one
00:29:22.140
o'clock and then go an hour and a half later across into Virginia and like listen to a concert?
00:29:35.500
So real quick, just going back to you with the, with the Pence thing.
00:29:39.640
Like, so would you say like everything started getting crazy once it was confirmed that Pence
00:29:44.680
wasn't going to send the votes back to the States?
00:29:46.900
Well, I started to confirm the election results.
00:29:49.700
I started to see some tension in the crowd even before we got to the Capitol, just because,
00:29:54.080
you know, I, I think all of us knowing that the 2020 election was stolen, this really
00:29:58.100
seemed like the last opportunity without Trump declaring the insurrection act.
00:30:03.320
It was the last opportunity for us to basically deal with the 2020 election fraud.
00:30:08.100
And so as it started to seem more and more like they're, they're just going to try to
00:30:12.300
They don't give a shit that there's too many million people here.
00:30:14.660
I think people were starting to get a little bit angry, like, and, you know, agitated.
00:30:21.040
Like a lot of patriotism, a lot of prayers, like people, people were, were united.
00:30:27.140
But I think when you, when you had those people with those emotions and you had the police
00:30:33.320
then start attacking and it was like a powder keg automatically.
00:30:42.980
I don't think enough attention gets put onto Mike Pence for basically betraying the, Donald
00:30:48.360
Trump and the GOP in general for confirming that because, you know, Democrats and liberals
00:30:53.460
always say, oh, oh, the conservatives are, are conspiracy theorists with the election.
00:30:57.100
But there's quite a bit of evidence that shows that at least warrants an investigation
00:31:01.060
with, you know, the, the election fraud that everyone suspects.
00:31:07.800
He represents a bigger, a bigger problem with all these rhinos.
00:31:11.300
You saw him getting those pieces of silver afterwards too.
00:31:16.360
Well, I mean, there's a video of this right after he said that there, he pushed through
00:31:20.700
I think it was, I don't remember which democratic politician, but it was one of the high ranking
00:31:24.860
democratic politicians gave him like two coins.
00:31:28.100
Like it was like, it was like some sort of like symbolic gesture.
00:31:33.720
But you know, the thing Myron about what Mike Pence did that's so aggravated.
00:31:37.460
Can you explain it to the audience because like a lot of people here might not be familiar
00:31:40.020
with like politics and how our civic government works when it comes to certifying the election
00:31:45.180
Because I really want people to understand how much of a piece of shit Mike Pence really
00:31:51.280
And then a month later, you have the electoral college is basically supposed to vote based
00:31:59.200
Technically, they can do what they want, but that's, you know, typically how it goes.
00:32:02.940
Then you have the final step before the actual inauguration, which is a certification of the
00:32:08.760
Basically, Congress has all the electoral votes and then they decide, okay, yep, the election
00:32:15.380
So now the different people can move forward to the presidency.
00:32:18.380
Now, the issue with this whole thing was that you had five different states that were
00:32:24.260
that the legislatures had sent separate slates of electors to all the swing states said, this
00:32:30.160
A lot of the state senators said, this is bullshit.
00:32:34.240
Nobody was really asking Mike Pence to overturn the election.
00:32:38.260
They were asking him to pause the certification and investigate the fraud in the swing states
00:32:42.860
like the state legislatures of those swing states wanted.
00:32:48.080
Like, it wasn't like, oh, Mike Pence, you have the ability to overturn the election.
00:32:51.860
It was like, no, man, just like slow things down a little bit so that we can all come together
00:33:00.460
And everybody makes Trump out to seem like he was this dictator trying to steal the election.
00:33:04.000
But really, it was just a matter of let's bring some transparency to the table because
00:33:08.660
Obviously, there's enough Americans, which hasn't been properly represented by the mainstream
00:33:14.060
And when you see an event like this, especially a national event like this, when you see over
00:33:17.420
a million people, that reflects a greater portion of the country because a lot of people
00:33:23.200
But those people represent the ideals that a lot of other Americans want to portray.
00:33:33.500
Over 80 million people believed that the election was stolen.
00:33:37.520
That's not a small, crazy, extreme number of people that wanted to overthrow the election.
00:33:45.640
This is a genuine, large portion of the population of America that believed genuinely that the
00:33:52.100
And this individual, Mike Pence, was in a position to just bring some transparency to
00:34:01.760
It was just, hey, let's take a moment and see what happened.
00:34:04.740
And I'm actually going to pull up a lot of the reasons why people feel that it was fraud
00:34:08.580
because I wrote a whole thread on this and we like investigate it.
00:34:11.360
And I mean, at the bare minimum, it warranted a thorough investigation, which they never
00:34:17.320
Like, you know, people think that people were just riding at the Capitol for no reason
00:34:22.660
And it's like, dude, if you actually like look at all the facts and circumstances that
00:34:25.880
led to the 2020 election, which was unprecedented times.
00:34:30.060
We weren't able to really calculate who really showed up to vote or whatever.
00:34:39.520
Can you take us through what went down on that day from your perspective?
00:34:42.760
So I had gotten there a couple of days early, obviously.
00:34:44.580
Enrique had already explained what happened to him.
00:34:46.240
And so I was given what the government calls war power.
00:34:49.600
The undisputed leader on the ground for the Proud Boys.
00:34:57.440
My prerogative, like my main, you know, objective was really to keep guys on the move and away
00:35:04.160
Because when I came to D.C., it just, you could feel the aura.
00:35:08.820
And I'd been, I'd been on the, you know, I grew up on the West Coast and most of my
00:35:15.300
I'm used to Antifa and crazy stuff getting wild.
00:35:18.600
It was like, it was like they wanted us to be there.
00:35:22.000
And so there's the different creepy feeling when you have that.
00:35:24.360
And so I said, okay, instead of having just a point A rally point where we don't move
00:35:28.780
and people gather to us, I wanted to stay on the move to have a point A, point B, back
00:35:32.120
to point A march away from the, from the main crowds.
00:35:35.240
So that we started out at the Washington Monument.
00:35:40.080
We started the march down to the Capitol simply to do hearts and minds, you know, kiss babies
00:35:55.360
But, you know, just, just hearts and minds, you know, give people an understanding who
00:36:00.060
Because obviously there's a lot of bullshit out there about who we are.
00:36:02.420
And we're really just a bunch of good, you know, we're a little rugged around the edges,
00:36:08.200
And honestly, for both sides, really, like, you know, if you, if you're out there and you,
00:36:13.080
you need some help and you're just trying to exercise your first amendment, right?
00:36:18.900
If anybody fucking touches you, I mean, I guess that's where we get our rep from, right?
00:36:22.920
So we've always been of the mind, like, we don't care if people scream at us or use a
00:36:33.900
But when you put your hands on us or other Trump supporters, it's over with, dude.
00:36:40.220
It's over with, you know, we, we're not going to take it.
00:36:43.780
And it's not because we're, we're big and we're bad or anything like that.
00:36:47.100
It's just like, it's a natural masculine instinct.
00:36:54.420
So that's why the media takes advantage of the Proud Boys.
00:36:57.640
The mainstream media takes advantage of the Proud Boys.
00:36:59.560
And they, they do this, they do this thing where they call us all sorts of names, like
00:37:10.060
It's like that Zimmerman guy who was a white Mexican or something like that.
00:37:17.180
They go, they go through the whole array of things.
00:37:20.060
I, I, I thank them for it because when people see, right, this is, this podcast, obviously
00:37:55.800
I actually thank them for doing that because what they, I lean into it.
00:38:00.340
Because they're like, oh, you're white supremacists.
00:38:05.340
I let it roll and I let people actually make up their own minds about us.
00:38:17.300
We're big on like business owners and small, um, opening small businesses and stuff like
00:38:32.600
And here's the thing, like the reason why we became so big, the reason why we ended up
00:38:36.760
getting, you know, mentioned, uh, on the debate stage from Trump himself, uh, is because we
00:38:41.860
were the only ones showing up when there was a problem and everybody would sit on mainstream
00:38:45.220
media and everybody like, well, how dare these people?
00:38:49.100
And everybody would just sit there and stare at each other and pointed the problem while
00:38:53.680
I don't know if you guys remember the 2016, 17 era of Portland and Berkeley and all that
00:39:00.040
And grandma's getting drug through the streets, just holding onto their American flags.
00:39:03.980
We showed up and we beat the brakes off these people.
00:39:14.000
You know, and you know, I've always found it funny that these leftist organizations like
00:39:18.280
Antifa, et cetera, they can practice ridiculous levels of violence, right?
00:39:22.520
And they're still reluctant to call them domestic terrorists.
00:39:27.400
They destroyed Minneapolis with the George Floyd protests.
00:39:30.240
And, you know, you guys, like they went after you guys aggressively.
00:39:38.760
40% of the FBI workforce was dedicated entirely to January 6th investigations.
00:39:46.860
Human trafficking details that were focused on saving children from being trafficked were
00:39:57.760
Maybe that was part of the plan in the first place.
00:40:03.320
That's what your government's focused on right now.
00:40:05.980
But also refocus, you know, another thing is like we focus like on like local stuff.
00:40:22.280
It was actually a joke on Gavin McGinnis' podcast.
00:40:29.400
You know, we went from, when I joined, there was like 150 Proud Boys in existence.
00:40:35.820
You know, now we have tens of thousands of Proud Boys.
00:40:44.180
South Korea, Australia, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Poland, Ukraine, Russia, which is crazy.
00:40:54.820
You know, and we have, it's a pretty big organization.
00:41:02.700
Chad, just so you guys know, I'm going to go, because I was looking for the tweet, but
00:41:06.020
But I'll go ahead and put a tweet for you guys below where like we outline everything that
00:41:10.240
shows that the 2020 election is questionable at bare minimum.
00:41:14.760
Like literally like so many, like I think there's like 20 examples of potential election fraud
00:41:20.160
And I'll put that link for you guys, because I've talked about this ad nauseum.
00:41:22.500
It's not like people were at the Capitol for no reason.
00:41:26.480
And Mike Pence had the chance to do something and he didn't do it.
00:41:39.540
He rebuilt Biden's basement and he's just sitting there.
00:41:42.520
Is it safe to say that Pence was Trump's biggest mistake?
00:41:49.040
I think that the big question is, did the Republican Party force him to take Pence in the beginning?
00:41:54.220
Because at the beginning, yeah, I think he had no choice at that time.
00:41:59.080
I said a big reason why he ended up with idiots like John Bolton and guys like Mike Pence
00:42:04.280
on his thing is because Trump, actually, if you look at him, he didn't think he was
00:42:10.900
So when he won, this is a businessman out of New York City.
00:42:14.300
So what ended up happening is when you come in as a president, you got like 4,000 jobs
00:42:18.840
So all these old GOP establishment guys just filled the void.
00:42:23.320
And this is why Trump couldn't get anything done the first two years that he was in.
00:42:25.980
And then that's why Project 2025 became a thing was because they needed to bring in
00:42:29.860
Trump loyalist guys that can actually get stuff done.
00:42:33.140
We're getting things done with executive orders, putting people in position because he's already
00:42:40.320
But his first term, he literally just had to put establishment GOP shells and kind of
00:42:45.580
And that's what the 2020 election was in many ways, like a total blessing for all of us.
00:42:50.780
I mean, not maybe not to us personally, but for the country, it certainly was.
00:42:57.080
And, you know, at the time on January 6th and even up to the inauguration, I was like,
00:43:02.220
You know, how is he just going to let him steal the country?
00:43:04.200
And then a few months later, I'm like, no, he made the right decision because we probably
00:43:07.520
would have gone to the Civil War if he had really fought against it.
00:43:10.480
And now what happened is he gave him four years to be completely masked off.
00:43:14.140
The most corrupt, fucking incompetent people in the planet running the United States,
00:43:26.100
We're going to wipe the communism off the face of this country.
00:43:29.200
Now, from what I understand, someone was telling me that Nancy Pelosi pretty much controls the
00:43:37.500
Did she not, did she tell them to pull back when Trump tried to send other reinforcements
00:43:44.960
Because I want to get it from people that were actually on the ground.
00:43:47.560
Yeah, well, Trump offered to send the National Guard in.
00:43:50.320
And they made numerous offers to send National Guard in.
00:43:54.180
Because she thought the Capitol Police could handle it.
00:43:58.400
But I think it's pretty circumstant, the evidence is pretty clear, I think, circumstantially
00:44:07.240
Byrd was one of like, he wasn't just a, I'm sorry, in Capitol Police Officer, Byrd is
00:44:12.720
So, there's some indications that he may have gotten the order directly from, like, it
00:44:18.860
Maybe not Pelosi exactly on the comms with him.
00:44:27.120
The Speaker of the House is the third most powerful person in the United States.
00:44:35.460
I would say the Speaker of the House is more powerful.
00:44:42.000
If that Speaker is able to whip, you know, up these votes and get people on the same page,
00:44:48.120
it's a lot more powerful than the President of the United States.
00:44:51.600
Because people, some people forget it's Article I of the Constitution is actually the first
00:44:55.400
thing that they thought of with the House of Representatives and the Senate, right?
00:45:00.140
So, it's, although it's an equal branch, it is the most powerful branch because it is
00:45:08.640
Because there's supposed to be like the actual representatives of the people.
00:45:14.840
Their job is to execute legislation, the will of the people.
00:45:29.200
We talked to him, Son or Son or something like that.
00:45:30.480
So, I got the chance to talk to him in D.C. and he was telling me about how it took over
00:45:34.780
two hours to get a response for the National Guard, right?
00:45:38.020
And I was kind of just comparing him like, okay, what other event would this have been
00:45:51.420
Because there's multiple police departments, like, you know, in D.C. especially, you got Metro,
00:45:56.860
You're going to be arrested by the FBI, Metropolitan PD, Capitol Police.
00:46:02.660
So, I asked him, no, no, I asked him, how normal is it to get that kind of response?
00:46:12.160
Like, if I asked for National Guard, they have a response team ready to go within probably
00:46:20.680
So, for the fact that he had to wait two hours and basically at the end of it get a no, he's
00:46:25.760
like, it was something that I've never seen before.
00:46:28.400
And it kind of speaks to the whole situation so that people can understand this wasn't a
00:46:32.620
matter of, like, things just got chaotic and out of control and there's so many people
00:46:35.980
that overwhelmed the police and the people were just doing the best job.
00:46:38.360
No, they spent two hours trying to do some one specific thing to get National Guard in
00:46:43.800
And, you know, people have a conflicting feeling.
00:46:46.520
Well, you know, well, if they need a National Guard, well, how are you guys the good guys?
00:46:50.940
And it's just kind of like your side and our side kind of an argument.
00:46:54.780
But really, the biggest thing that was lacking there was communication.
00:46:57.980
There was no cops on bullhorns or loudspeakers telling us what they were going to do.
00:47:03.780
We're going to start firing non-lethals into the crowd if you guys don't.
00:47:15.460
And then all of a sudden, then they say, hey, they start shooting.
00:47:19.140
Yeah, there was a brief time of escalation, right, where inside of the crowd, people stormed
00:47:25.780
It was chill as, you know, as all could be, and people were walking around.
00:47:33.360
Yeah, I saw an entrance where everybody's going through a window, and I'm like, I'm too
00:47:38.920
So I see this other entrance with, like, 10 cops outside, and they're holding up a door.
00:47:46.000
And, you know, it's like, in that moment, as a civilian, you know, how are you supposed
00:47:56.800
I mean, it's their job to tell you if it's not okay or not.
00:48:00.100
It's a public building, so if it's restricted, it is their job to let me know that.
00:48:04.740
There's no signs that say this is a restricted area.
00:48:06.520
So now I didn't realize that that much of the FBI workforce, which, by the way, just
00:48:12.460
so you guys know, about what, 35,000 employees of the FBI, 40,000, something like that, the
00:48:16.800
biggest federal law enforcement agency in the country.
00:48:23.860
Did they actually arrest you, or did you turn yourself in?
00:48:29.720
So my arrest warrant was signed three hours in the Biden's presidency.
00:48:45.500
The next morning, the FBI comes to my house, picks me up.
00:48:48.840
So I was under persecution every single day of that administration.
00:48:55.360
In the beginning, because they didn't have the strategy, I think, put together yet.
00:49:03.820
Like, they had no rationale to be able to do it.
00:49:08.720
So I kind of slipped through the cracks a bit, and then June came around, and I got superseded with the Class A misdemeanors and the 1512 obstruction of an official proceeding felony, which about 350 other J6ers also got.
00:49:24.340
So just so I have the timeline right, because this is another thing, too, that I had a problem with the FBI with, right?
00:49:28.700
As a guy that used to do these investigations, the federal government, 1811 special agents, should not be wasting time on fucking misdemeanors.
00:49:34.380
So the fact that they even put this much resources into misdemeanors is unparalleled.
00:49:41.600
So January 20th, FBI shows up at your house for misdemeanors.
00:49:48.120
They show up at your house, 6 o'clock in the morning.
00:49:53.500
Did they even – did they knock your door down, or did they –
00:49:57.440
Because of misdemeanor warrants, so it's like –
00:49:58.760
I gave him the spook because I'd actually gone for a walk.
00:50:01.200
I don't know if I had a premonition or something that night, but I was just like, I got to – like, something's not right.
00:50:05.260
I went – like, early in the morning, went out for a walk.
00:50:21.440
They called the police departments from, like, the five neighboring towns.
00:50:25.140
It was like a manhunt situation to try to get me.
00:50:28.980
And for a misdemeanor – because I don't think they could kick your door in for a misdemeanor warrant.
00:50:36.940
Well, we know a lot of things that they couldn't do.
00:50:38.440
Did you have any prior criminal record or anything?
00:50:43.980
A guy who has no record whatsoever, and they go after him like this.
00:50:48.360
They bring you in probably that morning for initial appearance.
00:50:54.760
And then you said they did a superseding indictment, and that's when they finally hit you with felony charges.
00:51:05.440
And then did they come into your house again and kick the door in this time?
00:51:11.080
It was just a superseding indictment, basically.
00:51:13.200
And they told your lawyer, I'm assuming, and they said, hey, you got to turn yourself in.
00:51:23.840
But like when they did a superseding indictment, they had to bring you in front of a judge again.
00:51:35.340
Your lawyer probably called you, and then you went to – okay.
00:51:48.120
So, that was in June 2023, and that was a crazy experience.
00:51:56.960
So, this is actually a little interesting thing to add in here.
00:51:58.700
So, I had Judge Sullivan at first, and he was a really lazy – I'm not saying he was, like, a good judge or anything like that, because none of the D.C. judges were good judges.
00:52:06.320
Was this added, like, what, the Sunday district in New Jersey or something?
00:52:08.700
So, I got arrested in New Jersey, but everything got transferred to D.C.
00:52:12.920
So, did you have to go to D.C. to do – or to go to trial?
00:52:16.600
In the beginning, though, everything was Zoom hearing because of the COVID stuff.
00:52:22.820
He actually seemed kind of amenable to have things kind of get kicked down the road.
00:52:26.100
So, there was a lot of can-kicking with this over – my prosecutor got transferred, so I had a new prosecutor.
00:52:33.600
In the fall of 2022, you know, at this point, you had the initial stuff with Fisher, with the Fisher case.
00:52:39.420
And this is kind of relevant when it comes to the 1512 felony.
00:52:44.980
Explain it to the people because 18 U.S.C., 1512, right?
00:52:48.440
So, the 1512 felony is called obstruction of an official proceeding.
00:52:53.160
It goes back to the Enron era, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and basically Enron was destroying documents and trying to impede their investigation of Enron officials, right?
00:53:05.100
And there was some, like, loophole in the law where –
00:53:10.500
Yeah, so there was this whole thing, like, loophole in the law, basically, where they could be destroying these things.
00:53:16.440
Or, like – or they – I don't know whether it's that they couldn't destroy it, but basically, the bottom line is that it was – the whole law was about witness tampering and document destruction.
00:53:25.600
And you basically have a 20-year felony if you do it to impede a proceeding.
00:53:29.800
Well, so there's a subsection that says, or otherwise obstructing an official proceeding.
00:53:34.780
And so, they took this law, which is about financial crimes.
00:53:38.480
And they applied it to basically anybody who they wanted to, who went into the Capitol or even didn't go into the Capitol, right?
00:53:53.000
Oh, so all of you guys got hit with the same 15-12.
00:53:55.880
So, when that Fisher – when that Fisher ruling came in, it affected us all.
00:54:01.340
So, pretty much – the government was trying in the beginning – they were trying to restructure how they prosecuted the cases so they could make it stick.
00:54:08.120
And then they – since the judges were throwing them out, I think they kind of just gave up on it.
00:54:14.740
Also, some – so some judges were throwing out this 15-12.
00:54:17.500
Yeah, if the Supreme Court's telling you, hey, this doesn't apply.
00:54:21.600
And then you, as a judge, is like, well, fuck you, Supreme Court.
00:54:30.420
I know a whole bunch of judges that would have wanted for it to stick.
00:54:35.600
But they used it – that was, like, the cookie-cutter felony in order to get anybody – like, if you trespassed into the Capitol, like, all you did was really just walk in, like, they did, or I can't say it because I wasn't there.
00:54:51.540
Then that was the felony that you got hit with.
00:54:54.200
And usually, people that were louder, people with, like, a podcast –
00:55:00.100
Or people, like, that had a bigger following, that's what they did to make an example.
00:55:06.560
So anyone that had a platform, an audience of some kind, they went after you guys first.
00:55:11.880
If you were in Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, 3%ers, if you had a big social media platform, those were grounds, basically, to throw the book at you, to go after you.
00:55:25.160
Well, I mean, the day after Biden has sworn is crazy.
00:55:40.120
Yeah, because they were having the hearings for Merrick Garland before Biden was sworn in.
00:55:45.660
And then also, the other thing, too, is that the United States Attorney, a lot of people don't know this, that is a presidentially appointed position.
00:55:50.540
The United States Attorney presides over that entire area and takes all the cases.
00:56:13.500
Yeah, yeah, yeah, so in the fall of 2022, we kept trying to do this delay because of the Fisher case because it was going to the appeals court, and the judge gave us another delay.
00:56:22.600
The prosecution was now really angry about this, you could see.
00:56:25.280
And it was really convenient for them, and it was really convenient for them because over the weekend, like, I had the hearing on a Thursday, and then my lawyer calls me on Monday, and he says, you have a new judge now.
00:56:36.720
And I'm like, okay, what are the fucking odds of that?
00:56:41.500
I'm not sure for the misdemeanors, then I go to a district judge for the felony.
00:56:45.880
He was happy to delay it, and then I get transferred to Beryl Howell, who's very—
00:56:54.980
She's actually was under two congressional investigations, one for collusion with the Justice Department, and another one for bias, basically.
00:57:04.320
She's a big advocate activist judge that is anti-Trump, openly anti-Trump, that she should have never taken—a lot of these judges should have never taken these cases.
00:57:16.640
So, in every district, there is a couple of district judges, depending on how big it is.
00:57:20.660
You guys all got indicted out of the district of Columbia.
00:57:22.940
Yes, we had the same—I think it's 12 judges that operated out of D.C.
00:57:29.220
Would it be fair to say that all 1,500 people from the January 6th event basically got one of those 12 judges?
00:57:39.140
All those—all those—if you were a J6-er, you're going to be charged in D.C.
00:57:44.560
And if you're charged in D.C., these are the judges.
00:58:01.700
They're like, oh, well, these are Trump-appointed judges.
00:58:04.520
Well, even if they're Trump-appointed judges, that's not how the appointments work, right?
00:58:09.780
There's a committee that goes and says, hey, these are the judges that we're recommending.
00:58:15.340
And we talked about this in his first administration.
00:58:17.540
Yeah, he put them in because he doesn't know anybody.
00:58:20.540
He relied upon establishment, GOP, deep state motherfuckers that have been there forever.
00:58:27.500
So, a lot of them probably might not even align with him politically.
00:58:29.500
I mean, what we're seeing now is a different administration.
00:58:31.880
Like Pat just said, it is important that Trump—the election in 2020 was stolen, right?
00:58:41.560
Because it was a learning experience for him, too.
00:58:44.120
We're seeing a Trump that we would have never saw in 2020.
00:58:47.260
We're seeing a country and a culture shift that we would have never seen if that didn't happen.
00:58:57.480
So now, nothing that the president does comes out of his office.
00:59:07.100
Pardons are usually done by the Department of Justice, by a small group of prosecutors that decide who gets a pardon and who doesn't.
00:59:17.780
He went ahead and he appointed a pardon czar, which is that woman that did 21 years for marijuana.
00:59:26.620
She was pardoned by the president back in 2019.
00:59:33.020
He's not micromanaging, but he's using his people the right way now.
00:59:37.700
So, that's something that's big in the administration.
00:59:40.280
I think that kind of speaks to the whole pardon issue, that a lot of people are up in arms.
00:59:51.700
If you could explain the difference between a commutation.
00:59:54.400
And then we'll come back to you with the trunks.
00:59:59.200
So, with the pardon, you can still see that you have had a conviction before, but everything's sealed, right?
01:00:12.440
You don't lose your ability to the Second Amendment and all that.
01:00:14.960
Commutation is you've served your sentence, but you still have to do probation.
01:00:28.440
Well, seditious conspiracy was the charge that we got that was the big bad.
01:00:40.920
Oh, so they didn't even hit you with the normal conspiracy.
01:00:45.460
They dusted off the books on the Civil War era.
01:00:57.260
It's actually the only felony that has the conspiracy laid out in the law itself that's above just conspiracy.
01:01:07.920
So what it is is, so just to tell you what sedition is, sedition was, uh, the British made this, this, this law back in the 1400s where they couldn't charge somebody with treason, right?
01:01:19.460
So they made another law called sedition and it was really, they were, they were jailing their political opponents with it.
01:01:32.060
John Adams passed this thing called the Seditious Acts and it was actually rendered unconstitutional two years later and it went away.
01:01:38.980
After the Civil War, they needed a way to punish, um, the, the rebel army, right?
01:01:44.840
Coming back and they needed a loss and they couldn't charge them with treason.
01:01:48.980
So they brought back this sedition, which is what we see today as the 18 USC 2384.
01:01:55.920
And that's really, it's, it's hardly ever used cause it's a, it's a very high bar, but it didn't matter in DC because the most important thing you wanted to ask him about the trial.
01:02:10.100
Because the jury pool, anybody who went to DC and went to trial, lost that trial on the first day.
01:02:16.500
Because when you go to jury selection and 14 member people that are residents of DC, DC is the most left-leaning district by far worse in the country.
01:02:35.960
Now that, I mean, she, Kamala Harris won Washington DC.
01:02:38.200
That should tell you everything you need to know.
01:02:40.600
She got like 90% plus of the vote in the last election.
01:02:43.180
I don't, I don't think that there's, uh, I gotta look that up.
01:02:46.160
The jury who was being looked at for a jury wanted to, she didn't want to put us in prison.
01:02:54.520
And then the foreman, we, we protest, the Proud Boys pride themselves in protesting that drag queen story hour shit.
01:03:01.180
So they were, the Proud Boys has never stopped protesting that.
01:03:04.240
And there were events in DC while we were going to trial, right?
01:03:08.380
That the Proud Boys were protesting in the district of Columbia.
01:03:15.060
He is the guy who organizes drag queen story hour.
01:03:19.100
So anybody who went to trial did the smart thing and the courageous thing to do.
01:03:24.740
But it was also in, it was, it was impossible to win.
01:03:35.940
And then the last, the next two days were them showing footage of all sorts of other things that happened on J6 that had nothing to do with me.
01:03:44.240
They're like, like my lawyer would go and say, was Mr. Stedman present for this?
01:03:48.060
Like to the witness, the witness said, no, I never saw him.
01:03:51.100
You know, I, yeah, he wouldn't have been able to see this.
01:03:52.980
And we're like, how the fuck was this even allowed in the trial to begin with?
01:04:03.600
Basically, we said, look, if the, if the prosecution is going to show evidence of things that Mr. Stedman wasn't present for, then we can show, you know, other evidence of things that Mr. Stedman wasn't present for that might defend him.
01:04:16.920
And they said, no, the government can use whatever they want to set the context, but you can only show what you saw.
01:04:22.900
So it was automatically from the beginning, completely weighted against any reasonable.
01:04:29.440
I mean, I mean, if you're a jury, even if you weren't a DC jury, right.
01:04:34.840
You used to have two days straight of watching people ride and blow, you know, throw things.
01:04:39.160
And, and like, I didn't do that, but like, that's what they showed them for two days straight.
01:04:49.540
So going back to this, um, sedition charge, which I've never seen it.
01:04:53.080
I've probably never been charged in modern times.
01:04:54.860
Uh, yeah, actually it was charged one time by a Puerto Rican national back in the fifties
01:05:00.700
that literally bombed the Capitol and killed people with guns in the Capitol.
01:05:06.400
And she was charged with sedition amongst other things.
01:05:11.900
She was pardoned by President, uh, I believe Clinton or Obama.
01:05:18.860
This must have been when I was spying on Puerto Ricans, right?
01:05:23.360
Because there was a lot of Puerto Rican revolutionaries that didn't want to.
01:05:27.060
Um, we had the longest trial in DC history, the longest, so you both went to trial too.
01:05:39.220
I was number one on the indictment, just so you know.
01:05:47.340
Stop, stop, stop, can we, can we take this, mute this, mute his mic, please.
01:05:52.040
You guys had the only like co-defendant, because we, none of, none of the J6ers were usually
01:05:55.780
co-defendants, but you guys were all actually co-defendants.
01:06:01.160
Every day, wake up at four o'clock in the morning, you get put in chains, you get put
01:06:05.240
in the bus, you get an hour drive, every day for six months.
01:06:27.440
You guys got indicted, basically, or arrested where it's filed, just like Pat, immediately.
01:06:32.260
From what I understand, the superseding indictments were like ready to go before they had any evidence
01:06:47.920
Take us through that day when they picked you up.
01:06:50.540
Well, I was actually out with the boys at a meetup, and these idiot feds didn't know
01:07:02.180
Like, I don't know how many agencies were involved, but we're talking, I mean, there
01:07:19.000
There's flashbangs, like, burn marks all over my carpet still to this day.
01:07:22.860
Um, and they held my wife at gunpoint, uh, arrested her without reading her her rights
01:07:34.320
And we're interrogating her for passwords for my laptop.
01:08:07.520
There was no way that I would ever have thought that we would have ended up being charged with what we got charged with.
01:08:12.660
I'm thinking I might be in jail for, like, the weekend.
01:08:15.240
They might try and question me and say, oh, fuck yourself, you know, what I mean.
01:08:22.180
Within the four years that I was locked up in all of trial, I was never asked a single question by a single government anything.
01:08:34.180
But, so, on the ground, I was leading the Proud Boys, and there was no communication between any of us guys and Enrique, right?
01:08:42.580
So, he creates this plan, and I'm acting it out with the guys allegedly.
01:08:46.940
That's what they're allegedly in an indictment.
01:08:49.220
So, if anybody knew what the actual plan was on the ground that was leading this insurrection, it would have been me.
01:08:57.660
And I was never asked one time by a prosecutor, by an FBI agent, nothing.
01:09:06.820
My lawyer didn't think it was a good idea to go to testify just because of the bullshit that they were doing.
01:09:18.240
It was just like, look, let's just get to the...
01:09:22.280
So, the bureau agent is telling you, hey, turn yourself in, or where are you at, right?
01:09:32.620
And the guy's like, look, just turn yourself in at two.
01:09:37.860
I pull up, and I've got lasers all over my body.
01:09:41.860
Just like, I'm like afraid to even put my car in park.
01:09:45.360
And they're all yelling at me, and, you know, I got rifles all on me.
01:09:49.340
So, you pull up, and then as soon as you pull up, like, your car's surrounded.
01:09:59.060
I didn't even want to put the car in park because I'm like, this is not...
01:10:02.840
And so, finally, the cop comes up to my window and be like, hey, man, you need to get out of the car.
01:10:08.660
I'm not trying to run you all over, and then you guys have a reason to shoot me, you know?
01:10:15.140
Because your foot is on the brake, just sitting there.
01:10:16.880
I'm not moving up an inch until they give me permission to put the car in park.
01:10:25.500
I kind of get in their face a little bit because I'm like, you know, at this time, we're really battling Antifa in the streets,
01:10:30.320
and nothing's being done to them, and they're coming to my house and treating me like a terrorist.
01:10:33.540
And so, I'm like, you guys do all this for us, and you don't...
01:10:36.880
even acknowledge that Antifa or these other entities exist.
01:10:40.400
I mean, how many of these guys' doors are you knocking down?
01:10:53.920
Well, it's certainly interesting, you know, with all this money, Doge is taking away from the funding,
01:11:06.920
Last week, we did a presser in D.C. to announce that we're suing the DOJ for violation of civil rights,
01:11:18.700
We had, like, three screamers there, you know, some people with bullhorns.
01:11:26.460
Liberal, crusty white women that are, like, four foot nine.
01:11:32.120
If we would have done that back in 2020 or 2019, we would have had, like, hundreds of Antifa.
01:11:39.780
So, it's kind of like we just got pardoned, and we came out into, like, this crazy multiverse
01:11:50.720
You know, we were locked in, that you guys built while we came out.
01:11:54.060
The culture has shifted so much that that shit isn't cool anymore.
01:11:58.760
Going out in the street and assaulting Trump supporters isn't cool.
01:12:01.660
I also want to thank my boys, right, for doing that, because I think that was a big portion
01:12:07.740
You know, every time they came out, we fought back.
01:12:11.340
But the price that we paid, right, was January 6th.
01:12:26.440
And you would have got a lot more if it wasn't for Trump.
01:12:29.800
I wouldn't have been there right now if it wasn't for Trump.
01:12:38.260
This is why I don't want anyone telling me it doesn't matter who you vote for.
01:12:41.160
This is proof right here it matters who you vote for.
01:12:43.360
These innocent political prisoners would have still been in jail if Harris was president.
01:12:49.280
I mean, this is a dating podcast and male self-improvement.
01:12:52.420
But obviously, when I saw what was going on in 2024, I was like, no, we've got to get Trump in, man.
01:12:56.300
Like, this is beyond just getting some bitches.
01:12:59.320
Like, this is going to be very problematic if Kamala becomes president of the United States.
01:13:03.280
And obviously, you know, we made sure to campaign and push and say, guys, you've got to get out there and vote Republican and vote Trump.
01:13:11.620
Like, we won in the last line, which was great, you know.
01:13:14.860
I remember that night when I – that was the day that I was free, right?
01:13:27.500
And everybody was waiting until 5 o'clock because that's when he was going to sign all the executive order and the pardon.
01:13:32.280
And so all you guys were watching on TV, right, these – and everybody was like, okay, that's when he's going to sign the pardons.
01:13:42.180
At 1.30 p.m., there was already emails and faxes from the administration to the Bureau of Prisons that told him, you better prepare to release these guys today.
01:13:53.760
He said, and I'm going to quote him, I will release them in the first nine minutes of my presidency.
01:14:20.580
Like, they just took you in and you didn't – you obviously probably invoked your right to not speak to them or –
01:14:35.620
Yeah, I just had no experience with the feds prior to this at all.
01:14:39.740
And so I'm thinking, again, that this is going to be one of those interrogation systems.
01:14:47.780
And it's just kind of going back to that time frame.
01:14:51.080
Like, it's – it really feels like we've been just in this long dream since we've gotten let out.
01:14:57.320
And thinking back on it, it's just like it's – the mindset that I had was just so much different.
01:15:03.980
And what I've learned from the feds, you know, these guys, you can't trust them.
01:15:10.060
They want to, you know, hey, it's all good, bro.
01:15:22.480
And I'm just kind of sick of this, hey, you understand, man, I'm just doing my job thing.
01:15:27.840
And you should feel a sense of guilt that you're cuffing up innocent people and taking them from their families.
01:15:33.680
And a lot of people don't realize, like, the scope of this issue isn't just, like, us, you know, directly, specifically, the guys who experience this head on.
01:15:42.980
It's our businesses that got shut down and the employees that lost their jobs because of it and their families.
01:15:48.080
And, like, this is a huge, huge ripple effect of a problem that happened.
01:15:54.440
There's only, I think, like 260 that were locked up, right?
01:15:58.840
So I think there's less than 100 that are locked up since, like, day one.
01:16:12.100
But there's, you know, there's a lot of people that were going through this the entire time.
01:16:21.180
And I think everybody else, if you really think about this, one man was our savior.
01:16:28.940
Well, you know, God was obviously the one getting all this organized.
01:16:34.200
And that's why I believe so much that Trump was going to get elected.
01:16:42.400
And there's, I can't explain how, in my mortal brain, how that's possible unless there was something supernatural.
01:16:56.400
And a lot of people forget, like, when you're in prison, right, because I only did, I don't want to say only, but I did three years.
01:17:04.900
And you guys were locked up the whole time, right?
01:17:07.460
We were in solitary confinement the whole fucking time.
01:17:10.100
I did three years of solitary confinement in 40 different prisons.
01:17:20.020
They do that to you so you won't be comfortable in one place, and you're solid, it's solitary confinement.
01:17:32.480
Why did they put you guys, because I'm assuming you guys didn't ask for it.
01:17:35.100
They just put you in solitary confinement just because of the nature of your charges?
01:17:38.400
Well, yeah, because the charges are akin to that of terrorists.
01:17:49.420
Yeah, I was sentenced to four years, but I only ended up serving a year because the
01:17:55.040
Supreme Court overturned that 15-12 felony midway through my sentence.
01:17:59.740
Was you a gen pop, or did they isolate you two?
01:18:03.460
But the sedition charge, they pretty much treated like a terrorist.
01:18:05.620
Sedition charge, I was put in the same category, and they were too, we were put in the same
01:18:18.080
So, actually, remember when we were in Alexandria, the plane bomber guy, he, like, bombed a whole
01:18:24.940
airplane over Africa and, like, killed, like, 300 and something people?
01:18:31.400
Like, when we came out of ourselves, they had to shut down the entire floor.
01:18:35.560
There couldn't be any more inmates out on the floor.
01:18:38.320
Um, so, it was crazy, but, uh, this is where, what I was saying is, you get used to that.
01:18:46.820
It's, the nefarious thing about this whole situation is how easily somebody, like, that's
01:18:52.780
Like, the people who suffered more than we did was our families.
01:19:02.100
And the people that did that to them, those people need to pay.
01:19:06.400
And what I mean by they need to pay is I want accountability.
01:19:11.520
If we were to do investigations, we're going to find a crime.
01:19:15.300
And if we find a crime, they need to be prosecuted.
01:19:18.040
If they're prosecuted, they will be found guilty.
01:19:20.720
And if they're found guilty, they need to be put in a concrete box exactly like we are.
01:19:31.840
And, and I just want to just to add to what Enrique is saying.
01:19:34.940
We're not asking for them to do what they did to us.
01:19:44.020
We want them just held accountable for the things that they actually did.
01:19:55.000
Quite frankly, justice should mean reparations for you guys in every single January 6th.
01:19:58.480
And I'm waiting for you guys to actually do something about that.
01:20:06.280
Well, there's, there is a couple of class actions that are coming, but I think a lot
01:20:10.440
of the attorneys, what they're trying to do is sue individually, right?
01:20:21.640
Are you guys going after the Department of Justice or are you guys going after AUSAs and
01:20:39.820
So I think, I think it's, I think we're, we're going to win this.
01:20:45.380
And when we win this, I'm going to spend a little bit of that money frivolously.
01:20:49.640
Because what I want to do is, I want to get, I want to get, yeah, I'm going to buy like
01:20:53.840
a fucking Cheetah with like a gold, gold leash, you know, just to, because what they
01:21:00.860
did to us, I'm really not going to do that, but what they did to us was wrong.
01:21:08.040
You know, and it's, it's justified payback because we did not do anything wrong.
01:21:15.820
And the three men that are sitting right here did nothing wrong.
01:21:19.160
So take me through what happened for you on that day.
01:21:30.000
This was on, I get released in January, on January 5th.
01:21:35.560
Because you got arrested by, did you get arrested by Metro PD?
01:21:44.860
They also gave me a felony because I had a high capacity magazine, which is a 30 round mag.
01:21:49.700
On my store, on my online store, I do like custom laser engraving.
01:21:56.480
But it didn't matter because the judge didn't ban me from DC for the mags.
01:22:01.240
She banned me in DC because she says that there's a whole bunch of Black Lives Matter banner and they're all in danger.
01:22:09.120
So you get, so January 5th, you get bond, you get out.
01:22:12.660
I'm automatically ordered to leave the district.
01:22:16.180
But they keep my phone, which is weird for these stupid charges.
01:22:27.660
These guys can go ahead and meet me up in Baltimore and party on January 6th at night.
01:22:46.540
They're going to go have fun at the Trump speech.
01:22:48.460
I'm going to take a very nice day to relax that I didn't have any during that election season because we're flying all over the place.
01:22:56.880
Um, so I was actually going to enjoy the day and I did, you know, I woke up in the morning.
01:23:11.500
But by the time I come back, guess what happened?
01:23:30.360
I celebrated what happened on my social media platforms.
01:23:39.360
And, um, you know, at night I was kind of like, well, fuck, I'm happy.
01:23:46.200
They'd arrest me for the charge of trespassing.
01:23:51.180
Cause that's like, that's the thing that I thought was the highest thing that was going
01:23:59.980
On February 12th, the FBI has a press conference.
01:24:06.240
You guys can look it up right on YouTube right now.
01:24:08.860
February 12th, January 6th, FBI press conference.
01:24:12.640
So they said, they were asked the question, what was it?
01:24:18.080
And the first thing that they said is we arrested Enrique Tarrio on January 4th, right?
01:24:28.460
They ordered the metropolitan police department to arrest me for the misdemeanor.
01:24:33.660
So they could keep me out of the loop in January 6th.
01:24:38.360
If I was on the ground on January 6th, we wouldn't have gone into the Capitol.
01:24:42.520
Not cause I'm smarter than anybody or anything.
01:24:44.560
I had speaking engagements on the opposite side of the Capitol over there by the Washington
01:24:54.640
Obviously, since I wasn't there, you know, there was nothing to do.
01:24:59.640
And that was where the rally was supposed to be.
01:25:05.780
And that's, you know, it was supposed to be a regular rally.
01:25:08.680
I think it was a riot gone wrong, like a protest gone wrong, you know, and I said it that same
01:25:16.040
day, you know, if, if you trespassed, you know, you're going to get fucked.
01:25:23.480
You're going to get charged with, but that's not what happened in these cases.
01:25:28.100
They use the 1512, which is a 20 year felony, by the way.
01:25:44.040
And here's another thing that people don't understand, too, is the enhancements that they
01:25:49.800
We got a terrorism enhancement for touching a fence.
01:25:54.720
So they increased us from, I think it was like 14 years to 33.
01:25:58.140
You go from Category 1 all the way to Category 6 and all the way down.
01:26:03.240
This doesn't even seem like America, what they did to you guys.
01:26:13.820
They literally left the island because one of my family members, right, at the order of
01:26:20.900
Che Guevara wanted him to give up his piece of property so they could use it as a forward
01:26:26.040
And when my family member said no, Che Guevara gave the order to put all the males, all the adult males that lived in the house, on their knees, tied their hands behind their back and shot them in the back of the head.
01:26:45.120
So the next step is just lock them in a cage, throw away the key.
01:26:59.680
So they arrested you basically on a misdemeanor charge as a guise to get access to your phone and keep you away from D.C.
01:27:08.140
So then about a year later, right, they went to the grand jury multiple times and they couldn't get an indictment.
01:27:15.400
And, you know, the saying goes they could indict a ham sandwich.
01:27:22.860
They sent it to Israel to this company called Celebrite.
01:27:33.780
So they went ahead and they found this document on my phone.
01:27:41.200
I'm just talking about their process to get that.
01:27:46.140
I didn't get arrested a year and two months later on March 8th of 2022.
01:27:51.600
But meanwhile, all your buddies, the Proud Boys.
01:28:01.240
How many guys have been arrested at this point when you were the last one they got probably,
01:28:05.720
There was more people after me, but I was one of the late comers.
01:28:10.680
So, the document that they find is called, it's a document called 1776 Returns, and it's
01:28:19.600
The actual document is not like, it's not bad or anything.
01:28:22.260
It's like how to stage a sit-in at a government building, right?
01:28:30.480
So, by that alone, I should have been exonerated, because there's no fucking way in the world
01:28:35.560
if I tell this man right here, if you look at his size, if I tell that man right here,
01:28:40.500
and there's a whole bunch of them bigger than him in the group, and I tell them that we're
01:28:46.120
going to go into a building, and we're going to stage a sit-in, and we're going to lock
01:28:48.540
arms, and we're going to wait to cops pull this out.
01:28:49.860
Well, that's a form of peaceful protest, though.
01:28:53.200
And that is a form of peaceful protest, but you're not going to find a bunch of proud
01:28:59.480
So, they present this to the jury, the grand jury.
01:29:03.740
They're like, look, look what we found on this phone.
01:29:09.000
The funny part is, they knew a very important detail about that document that they did not disclose that
01:29:18.300
It was sent to me on Telegram, which at the very time, at the very moment that my phone
01:29:22.940
was frozen in time, which was January 4th, I had 1.2 million unread messages on my Telegram
01:29:36.080
The forensics expert for the FBI testified to that.
01:29:39.280
So, already the grand jury indictment was picked up illegally.
01:29:46.420
And just so the audience understands, guys, with the grand jury, it's just them presenting
01:29:54.340
It's the agent in the AUSA, and they're talking to a grand jury.
01:30:07.800
That's the only piece of evidence that they used to indict me.
01:30:11.060
That is the only piece of evidence that they used to indict me.
01:30:15.200
They couldn't find a single fucking piece of evidence.
01:30:19.000
And the agent testified at grand jury that you didn't open it, and they still gave a true
01:30:34.520
So, at trial is when that agent finally came out and said he never opened it.
01:30:40.820
So, like, already, like, you're already arresting me on their false pretenses.
01:30:44.460
And then before trial, they went ahead and they gave me a sweetheart deal.
01:30:56.220
They offered me that they would set me up for bail.
01:31:03.660
In this case, the judge would have approved it.
01:31:05.600
And I would be released because I was in custody already.
01:31:08.680
At that point, I think I was in custody for about, like, a year and a half.
01:31:14.020
And I wouldn't do a single day in prison anymore.
01:31:16.560
And all I had to do, and they slid the paper over, all you have to do is confirm that this
01:31:27.640
Not, hey, tell me what happened and we might lessen your time or whatever.
01:31:38.800
The 45th president of the United States and the next president of this country.
01:31:44.420
You can go out next week and you can be with your family and everything will be over.
01:31:53.420
The plea agreement basically was confirm the statement of facts, right, that they presented.
01:31:58.780
And then be a government witness against Donald Trump.
01:32:05.180
Now, at this point, because if I'm not mistaken, that insurrection case by Jack Smith was the
01:32:15.840
It was another team of attorneys that was also present, right?
01:32:23.900
So then that deal that they gave you, you were probably one of the first people in America
01:32:27.880
to know that they were going to indict the president on January 6th.
01:32:31.140
I pretty much after that encounter, I knew that it was inevitable.
01:32:49.320
Yeah, you really undermined their case against Trump.
01:32:52.940
Yeah, I mean, because if you read the indictment...
01:33:01.320
It was the front of the United States government.
01:33:12.940
Everything leading up from the election all the way to January 6th.
01:33:15.820
So it wasn't about what the insurrection, right?
01:33:22.160
Because they wanted a nice and tidy indictment for a sitting president, which it was sloppy as
01:33:27.580
But anyways, but it's better than saying, well, he caused the insurrection and he's responsible
01:33:35.400
They actually had to try to make it believable and it wasn't believable at all.
01:33:38.860
But if I would have turned on the president, right, I'd be home free.
01:33:44.820
We were the bridge that they needed, I think, to prove...
01:33:50.840
Like I said, no interaction, no questions, nothing.
01:33:54.940
So after the day you got arrested, they didn't even Mirandise you.
01:34:00.980
Because in my head, I'm thinking like you're a higher up guy.
01:34:08.320
They took me right to jail and I found out what my charges were and I was super surprised
01:34:16.100
That tells me it was probably hostage rescue team that went to go, just from like you're
01:34:20.900
saying the way they did it, one of their special response teams went to go arrest
01:34:23.900
you and then the case agent wasn't there on site.
01:34:29.140
Because in my head, I'm like, wait, why would it...
01:34:31.080
According to them in the indictment, you'd be the number...
01:34:35.080
I'm shocked no one would try to ask you questions.
01:34:37.300
Yeah, I think what it was is because I had so...
01:34:39.940
I mean, like I'm kind of a ghost on the telegram.
01:34:46.060
I went in through the entrance where police officers opened the door.
01:34:49.020
So I'm like, actually, like I would argue that my case, aside from his, because he wasn't
01:34:53.500
there, is probably one of the best presentable because it's so extreme.
01:34:57.740
That's what I was charged with and I did so little.
01:35:01.340
You know, and so I think that they just wanted to bury me and keep me quiet and they didn't
01:35:09.780
So they give you this sweetheart deal and you said like 23, 24?
01:35:15.840
Oh, the year, I believe it was at the end of...
01:35:29.120
If you jump back on a time machine, everybody was saying, you know, the DOJ is attempting to...
01:35:43.340
Because they raided Mar-a-Lago, if I'm not mistaken, summer of 22.
01:36:00.320
And then I remember they raided the house and then a couple months later, then they indicted
01:36:06.380
And then he had already been under charges for New York for the false document case.
01:36:22.020
So they indicted him out of the state of New York.
01:36:25.540
Then the document case, the classified document case.
01:36:30.380
So they had this all ready to go from the beginning.
01:36:35.540
Because the fact that they went to you saying, hey, we want you to testify against him for
01:36:43.320
If Enrique had signed that piece of paper and testified against Trump, that would have completely
01:37:01.180
And obviously I said it, but I want to be clear about it.
01:37:05.400
August 8th, 2022 was when they raid them all right.
01:37:09.360
The entire story that they made up was something out of a fucking, like, space fiction.
01:37:19.280
I don't want to give them too much credit, though.
01:37:21.780
I mean, like, they did a great job, but we wore them the hell out.
01:37:25.980
I mean, they did throw us under the bus, but we can...
01:37:32.760
If we could get a marshal on here to just explain the wear and tear that we put on them.
01:37:51.960
I mean, every time getting your chains on, chains off, you know.
01:38:02.340
I'm, like, institutionalized, so I want to say co-defendants.
01:38:05.740
But all five of us were together the entire ride.
01:38:09.540
But you know what was the funnest part, though, is after trial...
01:38:13.060
We went to Lewisburg for a little bit, but getting to the D.C. gulag.
01:38:18.480
I didn't go in there, but I met guys at Fort Dix who had spent some time there.
01:38:27.420
Yeah, because you guys all got hit with a sedition, so they put y'all together.
01:38:35.240
And then I think another seven for the Oath Keepers, which is another group.
01:38:41.080
But when we're in there, it's a whole block, so, like...
01:38:47.120
What is the Proud Boys' relationship with the Oath Keepers and 3%ers?
01:38:50.160
So, to tell you, my relationship with the leader of the Oath Keepers is Stuart Rhodes.
01:38:57.600
Before January 6th, me and Stuart Rhodes did not get along at all.
01:39:01.000
To the point where, like, at my local chapter, because although I was the chairman of the
01:39:05.880
Proud Boys, I didn't have executive privilege over the guys.
01:39:08.520
But my local chapter, we cut off any recruiting from the Oath Keepers.
01:39:16.800
And it was just, like, on a personal level, personal differences between me and Stuart.
01:39:33.580
So, they're more of, like, an organization slash militia where the Proud Boys is more...
01:39:40.680
People think that we're, like, a political movement and we're not.
01:39:44.520
Like, we espouse these views that are just, like, these pro-America, first amendment, second
01:39:57.960
So, it's more of a cultural movement than it is political.
01:40:00.700
Like, automatically, people are like, oh, well, they're a bunch of, like, Republicans and
01:40:06.360
There's a wide array of views within the Proud Boys.
01:40:17.380
And also for him, it starts locally here in Miami.
01:40:23.100
His Vice City chapter here in Miami is his everything.
01:40:40.620
I'm shocked that all of you guys went to trial.
01:40:44.100
Because, obviously, you're looking at a lot of time.
01:40:47.660
You don't want to testify against Donald Trump, which is obviously very admirable.
01:40:51.140
Most people would have taken that deal in a second to be out of jail in a week.
01:40:54.100
Like, so, take me through that, go on a trial, man.
01:41:14.580
You know, other days it's like, we have no fucking chance.
01:41:17.480
We're going to be in prison the rest of our lives.
01:41:24.040
It would have been really tough for me to do this alone.
01:41:26.940
And doing it with my four brothers and my family's support and their family's support,
01:41:34.340
Like, we literally built, like, the Avengers, right?
01:41:37.180
And we put it together, and that's what got us through this whole thing.
01:41:40.660
And I'm sure they tried to get you to testify against other guys and their fat boys,
01:41:47.100
With me, they don't care about none of that shit.
01:41:54.260
They didn't have an in to get Trump for the events of January 6th,
01:42:10.960
In that statement of facts, what did they want you to say?
01:42:13.100
Like, that Donald Trump put you up to it and...
01:42:14.920
It has a protective order, and I'm hoping it gets lifted, I think, next week,
01:42:19.080
and I'll be able to say exactly what happened, but...
01:42:22.780
I'd love for the American public to see what they tried to do.
01:42:32.500
They tell you to plead guilty, and then they give you a statement of fact, right?
01:42:38.740
So the fact that they wanted you to plead guilty to that, and I'm sure that statement
01:42:45.760
I don't know what it is, but I'm just going to speculate.
01:42:48.100
That statement of fact probably has something along the lines of, Donald Trump put you up
01:42:51.300
to do this, blah, blah, blah, so they can use that against him in the indictment, and
01:43:00.860
But the fact that the U.S. government did that is absolutely crazy, and the fact that
01:43:04.240
they planned this out so long since 22 is wild.
01:43:07.240
If this man didn't have morals, Donald Trump's not president.
01:43:13.060
What they did to us, and we had a lot of time to think, what they did to us, they didn't
01:43:24.060
It's not like they're like, hey, let's figure out how to indict these people.
01:43:27.940
This is something that they've learned how to do over the years.
01:43:33.020
They do it with, and you're familiar, obviously you said conspiracy, like drug conspiracies,
01:43:41.180
Like, if I call somebody and I'm like, yeah, hey, you know what?
01:43:45.900
I know that's impossible, but they'll fucking hit you with two million kilos.
01:43:54.220
The call could be made, and you jump in the car, you turn the key, and that is the action
01:44:01.480
So that, this isn't a new thing, and we've seen this not just on like drug cases, things
01:44:09.080
We've seen this with political movements before.
01:44:17.420
So, with us, it wasn't like they invented a new way.
01:44:23.720
I think for, it was, it was very educational for me, I know for everybody else, two of
01:44:28.980
those involved, to go and speak to just regular inmates about like what he just mentioned,
01:44:36.240
A lot of people are in for decades and decades, sometimes life, for, you know, the probable
01:44:42.840
cause, what he was talking about earlier with the grand jury, and also reasonable doubt,
01:44:47.600
I think are two things that people really need to start honing in on and focusing on.
01:44:51.080
And I think with, hopefully with this new administration, we can start really honing in on that because
01:44:55.700
there's just too much gray area that they offer the jury to make these hardline decisions on,
01:45:01.540
However, I have a bias and I don't like these guys.
01:45:03.740
So, I'm going to do the community, you know, a service by putting them in prison, even though
01:45:08.600
there's no real evidence, I don't really like them.
01:45:11.700
I think reasonable doubt has to come into play as far as the judge and his, you know, being
01:45:17.620
an arbiter of truth in the law and ensuring that our rights are being, you know, represented
01:45:23.520
I think the reasonable doubt and probable cause has to play more of a standard in our law.
01:45:30.400
What you guys are telling me right now is scary.
01:45:32.580
And everyone watching this should be scared out their freaking minds.
01:45:35.840
Yeah, the standard is that the standard has been set is...
01:45:40.660
Well, five guilty, horrible rapist murderers need to be set free before one innocent man
01:45:51.000
And so we need to understand, like, well, that's crazy.
01:45:55.100
Like, you shouldn't just easily be able to send somebody to prison who's innocent.
01:45:59.580
The standard is before we ever do that, we let five guilty men go free because that's
01:46:06.360
We can't set a standard where this is something that can happen so easily.
01:46:10.200
Let me ask a question because these guys in chat are a little bit wild.
01:46:15.800
They've been calling me a Mossad agent for years.
01:46:26.760
Let me tell you because I'm watching it scroll over there.
01:46:34.940
And I've been very clear about this even before any of this.
01:46:40.020
In 2013, yes, I cooperated with the federal government in a case, right?
01:46:46.560
At that time, it was like rebranding and relaboring the diabetic test strips.
01:46:59.740
So there was this sex trafficking ring that was coming in from Mexico.
01:47:05.120
And what they did is they operated different little businesses here in the city, right?
01:47:14.300
And that's been the story, right, with some of these people.
01:47:19.480
So they call you for stopping a sex trafficking ring?
01:47:23.540
So, obviously, but there's always haters because I also see...
01:47:28.700
I've seen people talk about Gary, like, Drew Gary, Mossad.
01:47:37.460
I believe in freedom of speech, so I let the chat go crazy.
01:47:43.960
And then, like, there's a lot of people too, like, and I want to be clear because I've also
01:47:47.780
seen that people are putting fake Proud Boy websites on there.
01:47:51.020
And we've had this recent problem with these Proud Boys.
01:47:55.120
When you're an organization that's lasted eight years, you tend to kick out a lot of guys.
01:48:00.080
And those guys have grievances for being kicked out, right?
01:48:03.040
When you kick out enough guys, they form a clique.
01:48:09.080
It's very flattering, but it's also dangerous too because there are those people that we've
01:48:15.860
kicked out because they are literal feds, right?
01:48:18.500
Because we got to see the list and things like that.
01:48:24.220
Also, it's protective order, but, you know, we've kicked out a lot of people.
01:48:29.340
So what ends up happening is that they click up with these feds, right?
01:48:35.320
So before January 20th, before the inauguration, I told the Proud Boys, I go, please, guys,
01:48:47.080
Because you're risking, you know, us getting a pardon, right?
01:48:56.960
So everybody's like, everybody contacted each other.
01:49:04.640
A group of people in black and yellow show up to D.C., right?
01:49:09.560
They start making fucking noise, and it's exactly what the organization didn't want, right?
01:49:19.720
There's two federal informants inside the actual crowd.
01:49:22.560
And federal informants, not from, like, 2013, like my case was, from people that threw people January 6ers under the bus.
01:49:37.100
If you see a group of Proud Boys, ask them what chapter they're in, right?
01:49:41.240
And if we have a website, and we've had a website since 2016, it's called ProudBoysUSA.com.
01:49:54.460
If those people that are in front of you aren't saying that they're part of the local chapter of where you're at, be very careful with them.
01:50:03.820
Be very careful with them because it might be Antifa, right?
01:50:10.380
It could be somebody else, but it's definitely not us.
01:50:13.520
In the city of Miami, there's only two chapters.
01:50:33.500
I mean, this topic, you know, especially, like, if anybody knows prison politics, you
01:50:38.080
understand this topic is very difficult, especially if you're white.
01:50:41.120
White boy politics in prison is very, very fierce.
01:50:45.440
And so, you know, I've had to deal with this, like, the informant thing, like he's talked
01:50:52.860
And some guys, you know, that's where they cut ties with Enrique, and that's totally fair.
01:50:56.400
But as an organization, this is something I got an 18-year sentence for, you know, and
01:51:02.180
And before that, I was out on the streets, you know, fighting Antifa, protecting people,
01:51:07.060
and being called a terrorist and a Nazi for it.
01:51:09.960
I mean, the fact that you guys got so much time shows that you didn't talk.
01:51:15.180
Like, the fact that, like, even me, someone that used to do this job, like, you know,
01:51:19.920
But, like, I know, I could tell when someone talked, if you're getting 22 years or 18 years,
01:51:29.360
If you go to trial, that means by definition you didn't cooperate.
01:51:36.340
They wouldn't have put him in the same room as us if he was cooperating.
01:51:40.540
And if you are cooperating, like, you know, we have an individual.
01:51:51.160
He didn't spend a day in prison, from what I understand.
01:52:07.900
Well, my theory is, is because our case was so rich in Brady violations and constitutional
01:52:14.640
violations, that the Trump administration wants to keep our case open.
01:52:18.260
Because, like I said, if you get pardoned, your discovery gets sealed.
01:52:21.900
So, they pardoned him because he wasn't there, right?
01:52:25.360
And, but they didn't pardon the other proud boy.
01:52:34.740
If the DOJ throws out their case, they won't need a fucking pardon.
01:52:40.080
I think the case is just going to get thrown out like they never happened.
01:52:42.300
But we, the DOJ and the Trump administration still needs evidence to use during this investigation
01:52:52.140
So, you think they purposely kept, so some of you guys, they gave you guys commentations
01:52:56.260
to avoid the case not being able to have access to discovery for them, for their investigation.
01:53:02.460
And a commentator, just so the audience understands, basically, time served, essentially, almost.
01:53:20.920
I couldn't even listen or read news that it got to the point where it was like, I couldn't
01:53:25.900
even be in support of the Second Amendment because I was advocating for force against the government.
01:53:30.020
And so, but in the same day, in the same day, I'm talking to my PO, and he's like, dude,
01:53:37.080
He gets a call from his supervisor while I'm in there taking a piss test.
01:53:49.080
Well, you didn't get pardoned, but your probation is nil as of right now.
01:53:55.200
I got my stuff out of Seattle and moved to freaking Miami because there was also rumor.
01:54:02.640
You couldn't carry a gun, like none of that stuff.
01:54:04.660
Did they restore your Second Amendment privilege?
01:54:14.100
Of course, I'd like for all this to get kicked out.
01:54:18.840
And I'm just, I'm going to be patient and wait on his timeline because I know he's doing everything
01:54:24.220
And, you know, I'm watching the chat and there's people calling you a Fed now.
01:54:28.800
So, I mean, this, and it's crazy because some of those same people that are talking.
01:54:43.920
Dude, you don't get that if you cooperate, man.
01:54:45.300
If these people see in the streets, they're going to ask for pictures.
01:54:49.460
Well, you probably don't want to run into me in the streets if you're calling me a Fed.
01:54:52.440
Some of those people have asked for pictures, but regardless of fact.
01:54:55.620
They're brave behind the chat because there's, like, no name, no picture.
01:54:59.420
One of them, I think, is, it says, like, Oaks Report or something.
01:55:04.060
So, like, even if they didn't snitch outside, they snitched inside, right?
01:55:10.620
So, like, this whole thing is, they're calling you a snitch now.
01:55:19.240
But this, I mean, it's the internet and it's freedom of speech.
01:55:23.420
And I actually thank you for having, you know, showing what freedom of speech is.
01:55:29.300
Because, look, when we had that press conference the other day, when these women were screaming at us, I was like, this is America.
01:55:39.240
You know, seeing the other side and being able to talk to them, it allows us to show how ridiculous the other side is.
01:55:51.180
But, yeah, I like the video because I didn't want to interrupt the interview because, obviously, this is historic.
01:55:55.840
No, I was just going to say that, I mean, the way that everything is going right now, like, they're in a death spiral.
01:56:01.500
The left is in a complete death spiral right now.
01:56:07.480
Like, he loses, like, he can't even be read into anything going on with national security.
01:56:16.800
Keep doing what you're doing because they're only alienating more people and they only give us more political capital to actually achieve the reforms in this country that we have to achieve.
01:56:31.100
I'm glad I was able to, like, talk to you guys and kind of, like, get your guys' take on what's going on here because this is a topic that, obviously, you know, a lot of people on the right are like, this is bullshit.
01:56:41.660
Then you got people on the left that are like, these guys are insurrectionists.
01:56:43.980
They're, you know, committing treason against their country.
01:56:46.540
And I think, and I'm glad that we talked about the Mike Pence angle because that's something that a lot of Americans don't understand how Mike Pence, I would argue, is, like, one of the problems in this situation.
01:56:59.480
He had a duty to, you know, you don't have to stop what's going on, but at least, like, slow it down so that we can have a proper investigation because, dude, people weren't outraged for no reason.
01:57:09.480
I mean, when the majority of the country thinks that the election wasn't fair, come on, man.
01:57:15.400
I mean, the whole thing really is a big projection.
01:57:17.800
Like, they accuse us of overthrowing the U.S. government.
01:57:22.080
And, you know, they accuse them of having a conspiracy.
01:57:26.360
And all this stuff is going to get dug out over the coming months and years.
01:57:32.340
You know, and I'm hoping, you know, Cash Patel and Bongino, right, the one and two over at the FBI, they help that agency because, obviously, you know, we call them famous but incompetent for a reason.
01:57:43.100
And the fact that they expended almost 50 percent of the workforce to go after guys from the January 6th event when there's terrorists, organized crime, sex trafficking, drugs, et cetera, you know, what an agency to fall from grace, man.
01:58:06.200
They use the five of us in congressional fundraising campaigns.
01:58:10.240
You know, these are the terrorists and this is what we're going to fight.
01:58:17.780
They thought that the 2024 election was in the bag, that Trump was down, that Trump was weak.
01:58:33.120
Those people that did this to us deserve to be in prison.
01:58:39.000
Everyone that was, I mean, I know that they're launching investigations into the agents in the
01:58:45.700
The law firm that was involved helping out Jack Smith that worked pro bono on this shit.
01:58:59.760
But, yeah, guys, I want to get you guys the last word.
01:59:04.560
You know, what are your guys' final thoughts on it?
01:59:06.260
You know, where can people find you, et cetera?
01:59:10.580
You know, our biggest thing right now is just how do we move forward on a good foot?
01:59:15.440
And I think for me is I focus on a lot on the other guys that I met.
01:59:22.920
It's something that I kind of created while I was in prison with other January Sixers.
01:59:26.340
Just really phenomenal, courageous individuals.
01:59:28.980
I didn't get to meet all the January Sixers, but the ones that really stood out to me.
01:59:39.560
We're also starting this project called the Proud Coin that we're going to be allocating to January Sixers to help relief.
01:59:44.820
Because, for example, one of our buddies, Billy Cressman, he's got a custody battle right now for his 10-year-old daughter.
01:59:51.780
He's got, after he just paid rent, he's got no money, no extra car.
01:59:57.120
So he's just trying to get an extra car right now.
02:00:00.360
But there's just handfuls of people like that in this.
02:00:04.460
So we're really just starting to try and start projects to encourage about entrepreneurship, the future with crypto and investment.
02:00:14.520
I think that's really important that people start to see that.
02:00:16.340
I think Trump is going to be huge into crypto as well.
02:00:28.780
What I can do is, do we got a lot of jobs right now?
02:00:31.340
Because I know some of them have questions and stuff.
02:00:38.900
So, I mean, I don't know what the future holds for me.
02:00:44.980
You know, I want to get all, like, the emotional business ideas out, you know, because when you're in there, all you have is time to think.
02:00:51.760
So, I kind of want to, I just want to have some time to myself and then kind of just, like, center my chi.
02:00:59.720
And kind of figure out what the path forward is.
02:01:01.940
Right now, for me, the most important thing is my guys here locally.
02:01:07.460
You know, before, I'm sorry, before that is my God, my family.
02:01:12.060
And then, like, my guys here locally, the J6ers, all the J6ers.
02:01:17.920
Also, with the ProudCoin project, what we're trying to do is also give, you know, it's a coin that I want to give education to the J6ers, too, about crypto and how the currencies work, how you trade, how you make a wallet and things like that.
02:01:35.780
But, again, I'm focused on my stuff here locally and trying to get, like, my bearing up.
02:01:47.300
Do I get into, we're going to start our podcast here soon enough?
02:02:07.620
We're building the studio out right now, and we're just getting, we're trying to pick a good platform.
02:02:18.060
I live, I literally could probably look outside that window and see my house.
02:02:31.800
I got all their Twitters below, by the way, guys.
02:02:41.520
When you guys drop your podcast, make sure to let me know, and I'll definitely put it out there for the people.
02:02:45.800
Like with all J6ers, I'm in the process of rebuilding my life, rebuilding my business.
02:02:54.180
I mean, I still was able to, for three years, like, run my business.
02:02:57.320
But, you know, when you got jail on your horizon, a lot of people aren't necessarily going to work with you for coaching services.
02:03:07.300
It's probably about a million dollars in damages total.
02:03:10.840
You know, a wife and two kids, another one on the way.
02:03:14.020
So, it's really, for me, about anchoring back into the business, anchoring back into my family, and taking everything to the next level.
02:03:21.060
I have a book on the J6 experience coming out, Memorial Day, Letters from Fort Dix, Reflections of a Political Prisoner.
02:03:28.920
So, that's going to be out for presale in April.
02:03:31.000
I wrote most of those letters by hand in prison, saying them out on my email list.
02:03:36.940
So, it's kind of like a combination of, like, prison stories, J6 stories, all that stuff.
02:03:42.820
So, at any rate, that's kind of where things are going for me.
02:03:46.620
And you can find me on Twitter, Pat underscore, at Pat underscore Stedman.
02:03:56.100
But, no, guys, thank you so much for coming on the podcast, man.
02:04:01.000
You know, I think the course of the history of the country was changed because of what you guys did.
02:04:04.920
And, thankfully, we got Trump in and, you know, he gave you guys the part.
02:04:08.800
And, hopefully, you guys can repair with the damage they've done, man.
02:04:11.400
It's fucking ridiculous how they weaponized the Justice Department to go after the patriots.
02:04:16.080
But, anyway, guys, we'll be fresh and going to go live here soon on Fresh and Fit with Amaranth.
02:04:26.020
Obviously, we wanted to focus on the interview.
02:04:30.840
No, actually, we're going to be traveling to Vegas.
02:04:32.160
So, after the Amaranth, we're going to have After Hours, guys.
