The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guests： Adam Morgan & Dr. Taylor Marshall ｜ 1⧸25⧸23

00:00:00.000 i don't know what everybody else is talking about on their podcast i was thoroughly enthralled with

00:00:05.200 today's yeah uh it was very good very good you did a good job today glenn congratulations i didn't

00:00:12.380 need a pat on the head hey buddy you're doing okay you're doing you're not even looking hey

00:00:16.260 man you're not even looking at me he's not even paying attention to what i'm saying

00:00:19.740 this is like what'd you say yeah this is bad we talk about actually this kind of thing

00:00:25.080 towards the end of the podcast uh we get into what's coming digitally um and eye tracking and

00:00:32.780 it is it's terrifying and it is right around the corner the reason why we got into that is because

00:00:37.380 of uh an oligarch in america uh and that is jeff bezos he is he one of our listeners uh has been

00:00:49.460 uh wrestling with him for a while and it they have the evidence the proof that the government

00:00:55.980 and bezos or amazon are one in the same it's a fascinating hour you don't want to miss

00:01:02.520 uh also we had in hour number two of today's podcast we uh we talked to a guy who's an an expert

00:01:10.740 on the catholic church uh the doctrine and the war inside the vatican and it's it's very da vinci code

00:01:19.580 um the pope the former pope just published uh right after he died he had published uh a book where

00:01:27.680 he exposes the darkness and the evil that he was fighting in the catholic church nobody's talking about

00:01:35.120 it we are this will be one of the only places you hear it and i started with something that

00:01:40.460 was written in 1937 but is a warning and a challenge to all of us today as if it was

00:01:49.640 written today all on today's podcast brought to you by bill bar you know i blame my fatness

00:01:57.320 on lisa really yeah i do my wife yeah because she introduced me to bill bar she's that's causing

00:02:05.520 your fatness i think it's the opposite it's probably the only healthy thing you eat in a week

00:02:08.980 yeah but nowhere on the wrapper does it say how many you should eat right because it's almost like

00:02:18.660 donut holes you know you get a box of minis i could eat a box of minis but i feel like a pig if i eat a

00:02:25.240 box of donuts same amount guys same amount uh anyway bill bars they are really great if you're trying to

00:03:11.760 you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program

00:03:24.200 welcome to the glenn beck program uh we have adam morgan on he is south carolina state representative

00:03:33.580 he is also the chairman of the south carolina freedom caucus what's happening in south carolina

00:03:38.960 is uh pretty amazing the post and courier said south carolina state house republicans see their

00:03:45.540 divide air on full display in contentious day state house tensions brewing between members of the hard

00:03:52.860 right house freedom caucus and their gop colleagues and spilled out into the open in a fiery floor debate

00:04:00.480 amid conflicting accounts of who's even a legitimate member of the ruling republican ranks okay this is

00:04:07.980 really uh quite an amazing story and i wanted to talk to adam about it i am a big supporter of the

00:04:15.960 freedom caucus i do not know the members of this particular freedom caucus but i think there should

00:04:21.240 be a freedom caucus in every state especially those that we think oh yeah that's all republican

00:04:27.020 uh-huh yeah well are they constitutional republicans or are they progressive republicans adam morgan is with

00:04:33.920 us now hi adam hey glenn thanks for having me on you bet so tell me what this all stemmed from

00:04:40.560 well uh we came back to session uh all the members of the republican caucus and we were given new rules

00:04:49.640 that the republican caucus had passed and in the rules there was a new uh loyalty rule that you were

00:04:55.860 not allowed to engage in campaign activities of any kind against other members and there was now a

00:05:02.380 signature line on the rules which has never been there before that basically is a promise that we

00:05:07.480 will agree to abide by adhere to and comply with uh these new rules that just kind of came out of

00:05:13.200 nowhere and uh my so you mentioned in the freedom caucus uh we're just not going to do that you

00:05:19.980 wouldn't say jawohl mein fuhrer and and make sure that you didn't step out of line with the party

00:05:27.260 wow wow yeah absolutely not and i think the the most shocking part is we we told them before the

00:05:34.840 rules were adopted we said look this is nuts our people in our districts are going to go nuts we're

00:05:39.380 not going to willingly sign away our first amendment right like you literally put a pledge in this this

00:05:44.820 is awful we're not going to sign it we can't sign it in good conscience and they ignored it didn't fix

00:05:50.280 it forced the rule change and kicked us out of caucus wow okay so conservative all the most

00:05:56.680 conservative members the hard right as you read earlier which i'll wear that as a badge of honor

00:06:00.660 yeah me too so let me um let me make sure that i understand you went in and they said everybody has

00:06:07.640 to sign this loyalty pledge is that what they called it no okay they're saying you know of course

00:06:15.000 the words oh no no it's just a just an agreement to abide by rules right but and the rules were

00:06:21.600 you have to sign it on your honor right and so you you had to sign it and if you signed it if there

00:06:28.440 was somebody who was just sucked as a republican and was a huge progressive republican you couldn't

00:06:36.500 speak out against it you couldn't help uh mention names that were running against that person or support

00:06:43.060 them do i have that right yeah most definitely not the the second part that was the whole question

00:06:48.200 immediately we're like well what is campaign activities of any kind and you know we had a big

00:06:52.980 discussion uh and those are technically under caucus confidentiality so i won't say what individuals

00:06:58.260 said but i'll just tell you the definition was uh hugely uh sweeping broad and sweeping and yeah you

00:07:06.540 you cannot uh criticize in in a way that would make people want to you know vote against a member

00:07:12.500 you absolutely cannot endorse if a great conservative challenger comes in and uh and think about this if

00:07:19.040 a republican suddenly comes in and says we want to defund the police we want to you know go to you know

00:07:24.460 third trimester abortions all that kind of stuff none of us not a single member who you know signs

00:07:31.360 that pledge can go out and call that person out and say they need to be removed we need a great

00:07:37.360 challenger or if they're challenged you can't endorse them or you can get kicked out of the republican

00:07:41.920 caucus in south carolina so one of the things you guys expected was that they were going to come

00:07:49.100 back and right away when they call the house into session they would approve the allotment of the

00:07:55.740 remaining over uh half a billion dollars in coronavirus relief funds that came from washington

00:08:05.180 and they were going to say yeah we're going to work on our sewers with this well that's not

00:08:09.140 coronavirus and what are you doing and you guys wanted to either um put money on it to make sure

00:08:16.880 that it was used in the proper way or just give it back as a tax rebate right yeah we had several

00:08:24.280 different plans and a lot of this is you know some people call them biden bucks the arpa funds that

00:08:29.200 right use for uh yeah transportation and different infrastructure things and you know we just had

00:08:35.340 several amendments that were common sense uh you know good policy and so we decided to make a stand

00:08:42.100 uh you know as i mentioned we're kicked out of republican caucus and it's just our freedom caucus now and

00:08:46.520 so we went at it and some of the uh amendments were shot down but we actually got one passed uh that i was

00:08:53.120 able to amend that that that banned members from pro hit or from profiting from the legislation oh geez so we

00:08:59.680 wouldn't be able oh yeah that was the amendment that i put on it wow you would have thought i threw a

00:09:03.920 grenade in that room you know by doing that oh my gosh oh my gosh it it passed so you know we had a

00:09:10.440 big win and now and in south carolina we've had a problem with that in the past legislators having

00:09:15.260 businesses that then go and get the contract profit off the legislation we passed every state now it can't

00:09:21.700 okay so so adam how many freedom caucus members are there in south carolina we have 20 members which

00:09:29.540 is actually a really large number and kind of shocking when you think about you know it's a

00:09:34.420 fourth of the republican caucus the fifth of the legislature and that they would that we could be

00:09:39.840 targeted and kicked out of the republican caucus is is really shocking unconscionable there's so many

00:09:47.560 words for it but i'll just say that you know i would have thought a year ago a month ago this could

00:09:53.040 never happen here in south carolina we're a ruby red state it just it just can't happen what's going

00:09:58.320 on is it's a battle for the republican party for the soul of the republican party correct and it's

00:10:03.200 happening here it's gonna i think it might happen in every state oh it's it's happening here in in texas

00:10:09.740 and uh not enough people that actually believe in the constitution and the freedom of texas

00:10:15.440 they're not standing up they're not it's not being reported anywhere and it this gop has gone

00:10:22.680 awry in texas big time if it's happening here it's happening everywhere so adam let me ask you so you

00:10:30.640 guys are out of the caucus how do you actually then fight for freedom and and and pitch this battle if

00:10:38.660 you're on everybody's enemies list yeah and we and we are on everyone's enemy list uh definitely

00:10:46.420 both the some of the republican caucus and definitely the democrats you know we have been fighting we just

00:10:51.520 really formed as a freedom caucus uh in the last year and since we did that we have had some really

00:10:57.960 big wins uh we went after a pediatric transgender clinic that was operating in a hospital where they

00:11:03.740 were seeing kids four to 18 uh to do therapies and counseling and even uh medical full medical

00:11:10.960 procedures to transition children on the taxpayer dime and we foia'd them put pressure and then

00:11:17.340 suddenly they announced and it's closed and and then we sued some road school districts that were

00:11:22.620 violating state law that nobody would do anything about nobody would deal with it and so now we've

00:11:27.380 gotten you know the programs that were indoctrinating teachers and how to teach and implement

00:11:32.320 crt those those are now removed and uh so we and then the amendment i just mentioned so there's

00:11:38.000 definitely ways that we could have legislative wins we just have to be willing to stand up to the

00:11:43.160 pressure um from the left and from from our own party so um are the people supporting you to the

00:11:50.240 people aware in south carolina that this is going on and have called the gop and said hey what are you

00:11:55.820 doing yes i think that a lot of people are aware and and there's more awareness uh every day you know

00:12:03.540 the the movement is growing people when they find out about this uh just really anyone in the party is

00:12:09.640 is scandalized and uh very much supportive of of what we're doing and you know we're getting the calls

00:12:15.340 and the emails stand strong don't cave in you know this is the real battle and and i know they've

00:12:21.560 been calling and and really that's what we need more of you know people in south carolina they need

00:12:26.240 to contact their representatives their republican representatives and say demand this rule change

00:12:32.940 because you know there's members in there who have said oh i didn't really know what was going on i

00:12:37.920 didn't know what i was signing you know some will even say thank y'all for fighting it's like you know

00:12:44.120 they're not openly fighting yet and i'm hoping they will but you know they're saying you know thank

00:12:48.740 y'all for fighting for you know for our first amendment rights and so you know i'm hoping that

00:12:53.820 that the members because there are still some conservatives in the room uh that they will

00:12:58.440 stand up and demand uh this to be changed because that's what's got to happen it's got to be the

00:13:02.280 members that are in there uh and and tell me why they didn't want you to post any image of the house

00:13:07.620 electronic voting board yeah that that one that one is a bit of a a mystery one of the house

00:13:16.100 leadership even use that in a speech saying that we should before we post we need to search our heart

00:13:22.000 and basically acting as though it's it's a bad uh you know negative thing for us to go and inform

00:13:29.120 the electorate about the votes you know that are going on the house because it makes other members

00:13:33.880 look bad and i just yeah i don't think i really can defend that that's so ludicrous to me

00:13:39.300 there's no transparency i i elected you put you in i want to see how you're voting i want to see

00:13:46.140 what you're voting on and how you're voting that's ridiculous exactly i mean it's a giant board it's

00:13:51.640 there for transparency so that everyone knows how we vote we should be on the record we should be held

00:13:57.580 accountable and brought to task for our votes and members you know can't the fact that they would

00:14:03.540 try to use social pressure to get people not to share because it makes others look bad it's like

00:14:08.400 well just stand by your vote or how about you just vote the way your district wants you to

00:14:12.880 people want you to and then you got nothing to hide right right it's that simple right uh all right

00:14:19.020 well i wish you the best of luck in south carolina let us know any updates if things are changing if

00:14:25.640 you you know if you need some more uh to rally the troops uh in south carolina let us know i strongly

00:14:32.920 urge you if you are in south carolina to call your uh state house your your state representatives

00:14:39.900 and tell them stop this this this loyalty pledge is ridiculous stop it i support the freedom caucus

00:14:49.700 it is so important that you do this because this for the very first time for the very first time

00:14:56.040 there are groups of people not only in washington but in our state house that are actually standing

00:15:03.480 and doing what they said to us they would do if we abandon them now we deserve what we get

00:15:11.300 these people are brave enough to stand we must support them if you're in south carolina

00:15:18.100 um make sure you call them thank you so much i appreciate it thank you glenn god bless for you bet uh

00:15:25.040 and by the way this is happening in in all of our states so look into your state and find those

00:15:30.960 fighters by the way this is this is what this this loyalty pledge said uh prohibit members from

00:15:37.160 endorsing or campaigning on behalf of anyone challenging a gop incumbent in the springs primary

00:15:43.720 elections it would prohibit lawmakers from posting images of the house electronic voting board on their

00:15:49.620 social media pages and from discussing the eternal processes behind house votes during

00:15:55.020 public appearances basically don't talk about anything you what happens here stays here i'm sorry

00:16:03.440 there's a gallery for a reason you're supposed to be able to be transparent now we just have

00:16:09.720 different ways of transparency now not everybody can go to the capitol and watch the proceedings and

00:16:15.560 we don't trust our journalists to tell us the truth anymore you don't have any right to muzzle

00:16:22.000 anyone on the floor the people have a right to know what's going on and don't ever ever ever sign

00:16:29.900 anything where you give up your first amendment right

00:16:32.360 this is the best of the glenn beck program

00:16:39.160 dr taylor marshall is uh with us now the author of infiltration um

00:16:49.000 um the infiltration of the catholic church the plot to destroy the church from within

00:16:55.620 this is a universal story now um doctor welcome to the program how are you

00:17:02.140 i'm great thanks for having me on god you bet um so we follow your your work a great deal because you

00:17:08.580 talk about other things other than um um catholic things but i want to make sure that people understand

00:17:14.940 right from the beginning we are not taking on the catholic church and this is not a catholic bash

00:17:21.420 session no not at all i'm uh i consider myself a catholic i attend mass every day sometimes more

00:17:29.540 uh i have a beautiful catholic family we have eight children and uh i i love christ i i love i love the

00:17:36.240 church and uh that that bothers me that there's these wolves in sheep's clothing

00:17:41.460 in shepherd's clothing even uh doing horrible things to children to bank finances to all kinds

00:17:47.900 of scandals and i think that the answer is is just to shine light on it and to expose it uh and so

00:17:54.160 that we can have some true change and get things back on track the way god wants it right and there's

00:17:58.440 going to be a lot of catholics that listen and will hear you uh like nancy pelosi uh who consider

00:18:04.380 themselves catholic uh that will disagree strongly with some of the things that you're saying but i think

00:18:09.240 that's the point um because there is this kind of feeling among catholics um about pope francis is

00:18:17.220 he a good guy is he a bad guy i i don't know if we'll ever get to that question but i want to talk

00:18:22.000 about pope benedict because this was very bizarre when pope benedict resigned i think it was the first

00:18:29.520 time right where he resigned in well it's the first time in 597 years okay in a while pretty rare event

00:18:37.820 yeah right uh and when he resigned it seemed very odd at the it was um preceded by european banks

00:18:48.940 pulling the plug on the vatican bank right yeah that's that's correct well actually if we go back

00:18:55.600 just a little bit more a few months before the vatican bank having a kind of a meltdown there was

00:19:01.560 the the butler of pope benedict his name was paulo gabrielli and he was leaking documents to the press

00:19:07.520 and to journalists and no one knew how this was happening and finally he was caught he pled guilty

00:19:13.440 and he was sentenced to prison uh in the vatican then pope benedict oddly pardoned him and that led to

00:19:20.100 a whole investigation that was that was headed up by benedict a secret investigation three cardinals

00:19:25.800 did it and they presented to him there's sources say one or two red binders of all kinds of filth in

00:19:31.860 it uh bank scandals uh there's rumored to be pictures of cardinals and drag in those binders all kinds of

00:19:38.640 nasty things and that all happened in december of 2012 and then january 1st of 13 the the vatican

00:19:48.440 museums cannot process money the atm machines in vatican city stopped working and shortly thereafter

00:19:55.740 we have the announcement of pope benedict that he's going to resign the very next day all those

00:20:01.160 banking problems were fixed they were resolved and by the way that night that pope benedict announced

00:20:06.880 that he was going to resign that's the night when the lightning struck the vatican which everyone

00:20:10.740 noticed which was a a sign for a lot of people so so this is right along the lines of what we're seeing

00:20:19.300 in the deep state in the united states we are seeing with the world economic forum which i know you are

00:20:25.440 very well aware of um are you are you is there any evidence that this banking thing was to put pressure

00:20:35.060 on the pope get out i think so and and the reason for this and you say deep state and and i really

00:20:44.480 think we need to everyone needs to put in their vocab deep church the same thing happening in the state

00:20:49.820 is happening in the church we call we can refer to deep state and we can refer to deep church and it is

00:20:54.120 not just the catholic church these people have been working behind the scenes for years

00:20:59.440 yes and and you got to remember that the the vatican is unique in that the vatican is its own

00:21:07.280 nation it's called a city state it has its own sovereignty uh technically vatican city does not

00:21:12.960 belong to italy it's its own micro country and as a micro country it has its own bank now i just want

00:21:21.340 the listeners to think about this if you are a drug runner a human trafficker a mob bot your biggest

00:21:27.360 problem is what do you do with all this money you've got to launder you got to get it into legit

00:21:33.900 means and move it around right and what if there were a bank on earth that belonged to a micro

00:21:40.140 nation that was not regulated by the eu that was not regulated or audited by anyone on the outside

00:21:48.400 well there is that bank in the world and that bank is called the vatican bank and so every crony on

00:21:53.840 earth wants a piece of that bank because you can legitimize illegitimate money and that's why the 0.99

00:22:00.480 vatican bank has had a problem of scandals almost every five to ten years since the 1960s the temptation

00:22:07.360 to use that vatican bank is high and it and the temptation for corrupt cardinals in the church to let

00:22:17.160 people get their fingers into that pie is also very high and that's only one piece of this whole puzzle

00:22:22.840 but i think that helps people understand why the vatican bank is constantly plagued with scandals

00:22:28.280 okay so let me make sure i understand the good guy here benedict is it your thesis that benedict

00:22:36.100 uh was working to end all that corruption and expose it and possibly even his butler was being used by

00:22:44.020 pope benedict to uh to out all of this stuff uh and go ahead yeah those are questions that were

00:22:52.680 we're still trying to figure out and i want to be very careful not to say you know pope benedict was

00:22:56.860 the you know super saint mastermind playing 4d chess i mean this is an old man who's in his 80s and

00:23:04.400 i mean it's very few of us have had the experience of being old and tired and surrounded and so i i don't

00:23:12.460 think we can make it just as easy as the good guys and the bad guys here but definitely pope benedict was

00:23:18.240 doing investigations and he appointed a man who's become very famous in the last few years

00:23:22.920 archbishop carlo maria vegano i love him who audits yeah he's great he's just he he's a good guy

00:23:30.260 he appointed him uh back in i think it was 2009 he appointed him um secretary general of the vatican

00:23:39.960 city governorate and this is sort of a a ruling body and he wanted him to look into the financial

00:23:47.420 accountability of the vatican bank and as soon as he was hired by benedict for this job he found

00:23:54.180 a a negative deficit of the equivalent of 10.5 million and then found in a surplus of of random

00:24:05.700 money that was in various bank accounts of 44 million he did that in just 12 months vegano did

00:24:10.840 which shows you that the people who were already in there were playing fast and loose with the

00:24:15.620 accounting so vegano exposed that immediately he was being called out by his superiors uh some

00:24:22.640 cardinals i won't go into all the names but if you want them i can give them to you that's all right

00:24:26.760 and he got in big trouble and so what did uh benedict do he took vegano and said okay look you're in hot

00:24:33.220 water here i'm going to transfer you to be the apostolic nuncio the ambassador to america washington dc

00:24:41.140 now i want you to go and do an audit on the american bishops in the american catholic church

00:24:52.800 was the archbishop of dc who was molesting children embezzling money just a wicked judas of a man 0.97

00:24:58.560 vegano exposed that and then of course vegano has spent the last five years pointing the finger at

00:25:04.440 francis for corruption so all these characters are woven together to pretty small world in the back

00:25:10.900 the best of the glenbeck program 0.89

00:26:01.500 no so amy you were on with this by the way welcome thank you glad you're here um and you're

00:26:09.420 sitting up taking nourishment that's always good uh you you came in here for the um uh targets of

00:26:17.680 tyranny special and we had been in correspondence for a while um because of what happened to you and

00:26:24.260 your husband in seattle with amazon and the feds can you quickly just recap that for anybody who

00:26:31.100 doesn't remember yeah so my husband worked for amazon web services for nearly eight years if you

00:26:36.180 don't know aws is a subsidiary of amazon where the internet lives cloud computing lives in these big

00:26:42.980 data warehouses across the world my husband worked in real estate helped scouting locations that would be

00:26:47.700 good to build data centers and a lot and projects along those lines he left amazon in 2019 and on

00:26:54.100 april 2nd 2020 the fbi knocked on our door we learned then that my husband was being accused at the time we

00:27:01.560 didn't know by who of a crime called private sector honest services fraud which is depriving your private

00:27:07.840 employer of your honest services at the time the fbi did not ask my husband what happened it was clearly

00:27:15.440 an accusation and two months later um the government used civil forfeiture to seize all of our family's

00:27:22.440 bank accounts your bank accounts your husband's your joint everything i mean to the point glenn

00:27:29.880 the doj went into our law firm's client trust account and seized all of the money we had paid our lawyers

00:27:39.280 oh my gosh oh my gosh and my husband at that point had never been charged with a crime

00:27:45.420 in fact he never was ever charged with a crime civil forfeiture is something the government can

00:27:50.300 use it's a tool and they can seize your money your home your safe deposit box squeeze you in every way

00:27:57.080 they possibly can and many times you don't get the money back you really don't and we really were kind

00:28:02.760 of told like don't expect to ever get the money back no matter what um that's craziness it is

00:28:07.820 king george you know declaration of independence style stuff well and the thing is you know it it's it's a

00:28:14.380 tool right it's a pressure tool so my husband had been accused on april 2nd 2020 and the prosecutors

00:28:19.600 wanted him to plead guilty um to a crime it was all very unspecific it was unclear and the crazy thing

00:28:24.920 is that largely what my husband was being accused of depriving amazon of his honest services related

00:28:30.480 to actions my husband took after he didn't work at amazon um but anyway um we did fight and you know

00:28:37.960 we we had four little girls um we sold our home we sold our car we liquidated our retirement we

00:28:43.700 borrowed money from family and friends to pay lawyers and to survive and didn't they go into

00:28:48.240 your family's accounts oh my gosh so dad my father yeah so my father was critically ill he almost died

00:28:54.840 he actually got a life-saving kidney transplant in april of 2020 and two weeks later the fbi emptied out

00:29:00.680 his bank accounts um my husband and i had paid for his medical care so you know it's he would have died

00:29:06.720 if my mother couldn't help him pay his medical bills so um many times people see this and go yeah

00:29:14.280 but there had to be something you you told the story of what that something is and it revolved

00:29:20.920 around a very expensive lawsuit from amazon so to preface this we had no idea what was going on

00:29:28.300 and the day the fbi showed up at our house my husband hired criminal defense attorneys and said

00:29:32.860 please call amazon and tell them i will come in and talk to them i don't understand what's going on

00:29:38.040 but i have nothing to hide and amazon's lawyer said we will only speak to him if he is pleading

00:29:42.940 guilty to a felony and at the time we were like what is going on i mean amazon's lawyers squarely put

00:29:49.540 the doj between the company and my husband very few companies have that kind of access to doj

00:29:54.500 and for an institution that's meant to be apolitical that's wrong it's just wrong um but what we learned

00:30:00.480 over the course of years and spending a lot of lawyer lawyer money is that in february of 2020

00:30:06.720 amazon broke a contract with a real estate developer and by the explicit terms of that contract unless

00:30:12.660 they could prove the developer committed a felony crime they were going to owe him over 100 million

00:30:17.400 dollars in damages the next day after they broke the contract they had their first meeting with the

00:30:22.360 department of justice they met with the department of justice over 100 times trying to lobby for

00:30:27.980 criminal charges the government spent countless fbi hours and prosecutors hours like essentially

00:30:33.700 doing amazon's bidding and what we do know is despite all of the things that amazon told the

00:30:38.440 government they never told the government that they had broken a contract and needed a felony or they

00:30:43.080 would be liable for 100 millions of dollars in damages so you decided to fight yes i mean you know

00:30:49.700 you're you guys are fighters you decided to fight it has cost you a great deal your husband nor you or

00:30:57.000 anybody else has ever been charged you thought this was kind of wrapping up and then you came on the

00:31:03.800 special and i think i may have said are you sure you want to come on and i know i said i hope nothing

00:31:12.300 happens because of this the day after coincidence i don't really believe in coincidences anymore but the

00:31:19.520 day after the department of justice subpoenaed amazon for all of the documents that amazon had that had

00:31:26.760 been produced in the civil litigation because after amazon failed to get criminal charges they sued my

00:31:31.880 husband and i'll note something about that that i think you know amazon didn't anticipate but usually 0.96

00:31:38.260 when you're accused of a crime you never get to see the communications between your accuser and the

00:31:43.260 department of justice and in this civil case because amazon sued my husband my husband was able to see

00:31:48.840 all those communications and they're very shocking and i mean to me as a lawyer i was floored by the

00:31:55.660 things that have been made public that i've been able to see why what what was seen um amazon hired

00:32:01.300 a former federal prosecutor from the eastern district of virginia they paid him millions of dollars to

00:32:05.780 lobby his former colleagues for criminal charges the former the current prosecutors in virginia

00:32:12.120 immediately ushered in amazon for a meeting they set up a meeting with the prosecutor's press office

00:32:17.560 because clearly this was going to be such a sexy and scandalous case they never checked anything

00:32:23.120 amazon said they never asked to see my husband's terms of employment or his non-compete like they

00:32:28.640 just didn't ask to see it amazon said they had paid this real estate developer 16 million dollars

00:32:33.520 amazon had paid the real estate developer zero dollars so nobody ever checked anything they just

00:32:38.780 went for it because it was really literally an old boys network i know you you know me just this is a

00:32:44.620 problem i mean we have an email that's now in the public docket in virginia where patrick

00:32:49.280 stokes amazon's lawyer asked his former colleague jessica aber who's now the u.s attorney for the

00:32:55.620 eastern district of virginia who just sued amazon's main rival google and pat stokes said to jess aber we

00:33:02.200 want to talk to you about civil asset forfeiture prosecutors in the eastern district of virginia have

00:33:07.520 not used civil asset forfeiture outside of a drug case in 13 years that i can find

00:33:12.640 so this is now being looked at again for the second time you know i really think that amazon

00:33:23.080 keeps pushing doj to try to do something and doj isn't doing anything except kind of you know just

00:33:29.560 the investigation just kind of hangs out there because it's a threat right and unless amazon can

00:33:35.620 get a felony conviction of this real estate developer they are going to be liable for damages

00:33:39.720 all right so um the reason and we talked about this you mentioned this but i have been seeing

00:33:46.760 more and more stories about people from the doj going to work right directly to the pentagon and

00:33:54.060 people from the intelligence agencies this is terrifying because there is a public private partnership that

00:34:01.140 you should be very aware of our doj our national security agencies all of them are using

00:34:09.380 amazon amazon amazon as their cloud bank when you have that you have control of the government or the

00:34:19.620 government has control of you at best at best if one doesn't have something over the head of the

00:34:26.520 other they're partners in everything that is extraordinarily dangerous it's incredibly dangerous i mean and the

00:34:34.380 thing that kind of blows my mind is that no one's even really paying attention to it i mean on amazon's

00:34:38.600 board they have the former head of the nsa keith alexander that's not a person with business

00:34:43.740 experience that should be on the board of a big company the sole reason i mean why else would he be

00:34:48.240 there other than to get contracts with the nsa and sure enough in 2021 the nsa quietly awarded amazon

00:34:55.020 web services a 10 billion dollar contract like it's something that we should all be very frightened of

00:35:01.740 it's happening across big tech it's happening you've read the twitter files you see it everywhere and

00:35:06.980 amazon is hiring hundreds hundreds hundreds of cia fbi former federal prosecutors and what just having

00:35:14.600 those guys in a high-tech company that has the information on each of us that amazon does that's not good

00:35:25.120 oh and there's no wall between that company and the government absolutely not right there's no wall at all

00:35:31.100 and you look at things like amazon is now getting into pharma right the amazon just launched a five

00:35:35.840 dollar subscription to get your pills now you're going to give all your health data to amazon it's

00:35:40.640 terrifying and jeff bezos he's an oligarch right if you looked at the indictment of the fbi agent

00:35:47.820 charles mcconigal it described an oligarch daripaska as a man of vast wealth with close ties to the

00:35:54.320 government that is exactly what jeff bezos is so what's next in this have you written off

00:36:01.160 ever getting your money back so we actually got our money back then so we pulled off what people

00:36:07.460 thought would be impossible wow yeah it was you should do a podcast just on how to do that i i know

00:36:13.200 lots of people who i know just driving through town they had cash the sheriff pulls them over the cop

00:36:19.940 pulls them over that's ours i mean you never get it back how did that happen so the government

00:36:26.880 it's such a strange process it goes back to the time of pirates but when the government seizes your

00:36:31.640 money and they don't charge you with a crime they then have to sue your asset so they sue your bank

00:36:37.460 account it's like u.s versus four thousand dollars at wells fargo and they do that because your assets

00:36:42.260 don't have due process so they can just avoid all due process so the government here sued our bank

00:36:47.920 accounts went to the court paused the case for six months went to the court again asked to pause it

00:36:52.940 for six months judge said judge said you only get four months this time they wanted to pause it again

00:36:57.500 and it wasn't going to happen so it was time to litigate and it was time for the government to

00:37:00.880 prove their case against the bank accounts and instead of opting to prove the case the government

00:37:05.240 gave us the money back unbelievable and how long was that from beginning to end when you lost the

00:37:10.920 money to when you finally received it again it was 22 months so for 22 months we had nothing we had to

00:37:16.620 figure out how to feed our four daughters my mother was amazing my mother was a public school 1.00

00:37:20.740 teacher worked her whole life and my mother kept asking don't they care about your daughters you have 1.00

00:37:25.120 a baby and i said mom they don't care she's like this is our government and i said they don't care

00:37:30.140 they care about jeff bezos and amazon they do not care that we have children to feed they did say

00:37:34.820 when they seized our money that if my husband pled guilty to a crime they'd give some back

00:37:38.660 it's such a transparent tool of corruption it should be gone it should be abolished

00:37:43.280 you
