00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Great America Show.
00:00:05.260 It's great to have you with us.
00:00:06.920 It's now been 51 days since a lone gunman tried to take the life of President Trump,
00:00:10.840 but by the grace of God and nothing else, Trump's life was spared.
00:00:14.600 After 51 days, you would think our federal government and agencies would have answers
00:00:18.700 as to what made this 20-year-old kid want to kill President Trump.
00:00:22.180 You know, just like we had after the events of January 6th.
00:00:25.280 The DOJ dispatched the FBI almost immediately,
00:00:27.820 kicking down the doors of elderly folks and the doors of people who, in some cases,
00:00:31.860 never even took part in the events.
00:00:34.420 So why is the FBI dragging their feet on perhaps the most important investigation in this nation's history?
00:00:39.740 We don't know the motivation of the shooter, what radicalized him,
00:00:43.320 what he told and who he told before he tried to kill Trump,
00:00:46.180 or perhaps the one that has puzzled me the most for the almost last two months,
00:00:50.280 why the shooter is the only person in the world who has no digital footprint right now,
00:00:54.800 no social media, no nothing.
00:00:56.160 It's highly peculiar, I would say.
00:00:59.080 While the FBI drags their feet and continues to be dishonest to the American people,
00:01:02.700 we could sleep at night knowing our CIA is hard at work.
00:01:06.240 Just this past week, they came out to brag that because of their work,
00:01:09.640 they foiled a planned terrorist attack at a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna earlier in August.
00:01:14.620 The attack ultimately never happened as three teenage men were arrested before they could strike.
00:01:19.240 Any day a terror attack is foiled is a great day for the world, 1.00
00:01:22.420 but when are we going to get serious about what's going on here at home?
00:01:25.080 To take all this up and the threats that we face right now as a nation and looking towards November,
00:01:30.180 I asked Russ Tice to join us today.
00:01:32.120 He's a former NSA senior intel analyst, and he's also a whistleblower.
00:01:35.960 Russ, it's great to have you with us back here on The Great America Show.
00:01:38.980 I want to start with, if we will, with the CIA taking full credit for the foiled Taylor Swift terror attack.
00:01:47.960 It's nice to see that they're doing work overseas for once, protecting all those people at the concert.
00:01:55.680 I want to first get your take on that, and then I want to see what's going on with the assassination attempt on President Trump.
00:02:02.100 So if you will, with the Taylor Swift foiled terror attack.
00:02:05.600 Well, if that's the case, and there was some, you know, multiple expectation by terrorists of killing an awful lot of people,
00:02:16.420 that's a wonderful thing.
00:02:17.880 But, you know, we're to the point now where you have to wonder whether this isn't one of, you know,
00:02:22.500 following the FBI's lead where they create their own terrorists, their own capabilities, the wherewithal to do so,
00:02:30.480 and then at the very end come in to save the day like the fireman who lit the fire that comes to put it out to be the hero.
00:02:37.140 But, I mean, if this is true, it's a good thing that, you know, they've done their job, and kudos to them, if this is true.
00:02:44.860 And it's sad that I have to say if this is true.
00:02:48.120 Right.
00:02:48.320 And I mentioned before, it's nice to see that they're finally doing work overseas like they're supposed to be doing.
00:02:53.100 Is that correct?
00:02:54.500 That's where they're supposed to operate is overseas.
00:02:56.740 That's when I interact with CIA, I normally do it when I'm overseas and a whole lot, actually too much CIA, in my opinion.
00:03:05.020 But I could tell you some stories about CIA folks.
00:03:08.980 But we saw them monitoring President Trump for the last, I don't know, we'll say since 2015.
00:03:14.000 So, like I said, nice to see that.
00:03:16.200 Let's turn into now the assassination attempt on President Trump.
00:03:20.240 It's now a month later.
00:03:20.940 We still don't know a lot of things about this 20-year-old kid.
00:03:25.380 We've seen pictures released today, or rather this week, of two man-made explosives in the trunk of his car and the rifle that he had used to take that shot at President Trump.
00:03:35.940 It looked like there was a red dot sight on top.
00:03:39.020 Highly peculiar to me that, you know, just days after the Taylor Swift terror attack plot, we know everything that's going on.
00:03:48.120 And a month after, possibly the second most powerful man in the world right now, we really don't know anything about this 20-year-old shooter, his whereabouts, who he was talking to, who he was in communication with, overseas accounts that are alleged to have been existent.
00:04:06.960 Your thoughts on that, Russ?
00:04:08.320 Well, we literally talked about this the day after.
00:04:12.260 So, a lot of the information we hadn't known at that point.
00:04:16.780 But we know a lot.
00:04:17.500 We still don't know a lot.
00:04:19.800 We still don't know, but we know some things.
00:04:22.980 For instance, well, we know that he supposedly built a pretty technically-oriented bomb.
00:04:28.160 Where did he get that technology?
00:04:30.060 You just don't pull that out of your caboose.
00:04:31.920 We know that he had supposedly three overseas accounts, possibly bank accounts.
00:04:43.620 There's some very odd things.
00:04:46.240 One thing, and that he registered as a Republican.
00:04:49.100 I find that to be very interesting, being that his father is a Democrat or independent.
00:04:54.680 I think his mother is independent.
00:04:56.600 His sister, I think, is a Democrat.
00:04:58.040 I find that to be interesting and that his entire social or supposedly non-existent social, you know, interactions on the different, you know, Twitter and what have you.
00:05:12.760 I find for a 20-year-old, I find that to be nearly impossible these days.
00:05:16.880 But the one that I find very interesting that's happened recently is the fact that the body was cremated very quickly afterwards, and the blood and everything on that white roof was washed down and scrubbed up very quickly after the fact.
00:05:36.760 Well, I'll give you one reason why that may be the fact or the case.
00:05:42.620 It's called blood.
00:05:47.440 You can tell an awful lot with toxicology with the blood.
00:05:52.300 Now, I assume they're going to do an official toxicology.
00:05:54.940 Is that going to be the FBI that does the toxicology report?
00:05:58.880 Yeah, right.
00:06:00.040 So I imagine they do not want an independent toxicology report.
00:06:05.460 And I'll tell you why, because the CIA has the capability and the CIA has been into drugs for a long time, and they have the capability to come up with some special cocktail exotic drugs that can basically kind of dement someone's mind.
00:06:23.180 And then they can coach them over a certain period of years to do their bidding or to do some nefarious act.
00:06:31.100 I'm not sure if you've ever saw the movie.
00:06:32.920 I think it was called Telefon.
00:06:34.900 But it was with Charles Bronson, I think.
00:06:39.420 But basically, the premise is that you brainwash a bunch of people to commit terror attacks, and they're U.S. citizens.
00:06:48.340 And with some kind of trigger word, and I think they used a Robert Frost poem about the snow in the woods or something like that.
00:06:59.380 The woods are lovely, dark and deep, but we have promises to keep and miles to go before we sleep.
00:07:08.760 That's in the movie.
00:07:10.340 When they hear that on the phone, then that's their key to go off and do what they've been brainwashed to do, not even knowing that they know that's Hollywood.
00:07:23.140 But literally, CIA has drugs that do that kind of stuff.
00:07:27.380 You know what?
00:07:28.100 To your point, Russ, that's interesting, because we haven't heard from any of his friends.
00:07:34.100 We haven't heard from any of his family members.
00:07:35.740 Now, they're probably under the advice of counsel not to say anything right now.
00:07:39.880 Well, it's an ongoing investigation.
00:07:41.340 But if someone were to do something like this, it's very rare you get away with it not being picked up somewhere.
00:07:49.900 Right.
00:07:50.640 And no 20-year-old kid has the capability to do this on his own.
00:07:55.660 I mean, if I look back now what I was doing as a 20-year-old, then I could barely tie my shoes.
00:08:01.060 You know, I was in college and getting drunk every weekend and just doing college things or, you know, working in the summers.
00:08:07.480 And it just seems impossible to me that a 20-year-old kid could come up with this by himself.
00:08:13.960 Those bombs that for anyone could go see, they released the FBI, released the images this week.
00:08:19.220 Very sophisticated bombs.
00:08:20.720 It looked like one of them was in an ammo tactical box, which presumably had some sort of explosive in it once it was open and triggered.
00:08:26.960 But, I mean, going back to what you said, everybody leaves a digital footprint somewhere.
00:08:33.440 I mean, I've been subject to subpoenas and lawsuits many times, man, and they've taken my phones and I found things in there that I didn't even know existed.
00:08:42.500 For someone to not have as much as a Facebook, an Instagram, even an undercover Twitter account, which seems to be a lot of people are doing these days, both, you know, on the right side and the wrong side.
00:08:52.280 You know, people who want to put out tweets and stuff and not let their political opinions be known.
00:08:57.200 And then there's also people who are doing malicious things under accounts, whatever.
00:09:01.660 That is the most troubling thing to me.
00:09:03.500 And still we hear nothing from the FBI.
00:09:07.420 You're right.
00:09:07.720 When I was 20, I was playing football, you know, studying for, you know, my studies in school and chasing girls and drinking beer.
00:09:15.100 So, it's in the overseas account thing, I think is very interesting.
00:09:22.660 And I'll tell you what I think.
00:09:24.940 I'm almost, I'm more, I'm more than 60%, you know, in the Intel business, they always ask, you know, when you come up with an analysis, what percentage do you weigh your analysis?
00:09:34.920 Being all the, it's like a jigsaw puzzle, being all the things that thrown at you, the other things that may be involved.
00:09:40.360 And I'd say this is over 60% that this was indeed a sponsored terrorist, I mean, an assassination attempt.
00:09:49.760 It's just, it's just too much odd things going on here.
00:09:54.180 And I'm quite sure the reason they had to clean up so quickly and get rid of the body was toxicology.
00:09:59.580 A normal toxicology, the CIA's drugs are designed so that a normal toxicology wouldn't find them.
00:10:05.740 For instance, I'm quite sure the way they killed Epstein was a CIA has a drug that immobilizes someone so that you hit them with the drug.
00:10:15.400 And they're, I mean, they're still functioning, they're breathing, but they can't move their, you know, no auto motion, you know, with the functionality.
00:10:24.780 And then they'll take them and push them, push them off a building, drown them or hang them. 0.77
00:10:32.540 And the suicide note. 0.99
00:10:34.400 And, and, and, and of course it looks, they died by drowning or hanging or whatever.
00:10:40.180 But you mentioned the suicide note.
00:10:44.180 CIA will, will, will make, they have a specialist that study signatures.
00:10:52.180 And, and they, these, it used to be that they would have these specialists, you know, do suicide notes.
00:10:59.040 But these days I'm sure they could use AI and it would be real quick with, you know, they don't have to, you know, have to hire the guy anymore.
00:11:05.320 They just do with artificial intelligence.
00:11:06.920 You know, it's sort of interesting you say that.
00:11:08.580 Just this week we had a letter on Kamala Harris shared on Twitter.
00:11:12.640 It was a letter from a person named Tucker.
00:11:16.040 It's sort of funny.
00:11:17.320 You can go check it out on Kamala Harris's Twitter if you feel so inclined to do so.
00:11:20.920 But she put out this letter about, you know, someone named Tucker talking about gun control, saying they agree so much on so much.
00:11:26.940 Anyway, the whole gist of it was to make it look like the letter was sent from Tucker Carlson.
00:11:30.880 Just a day later, I guess, Kamala not realizing Tucker's humor capability.
00:11:35.120 Tucker put one right back at her sign from Kamala.
00:11:37.720 Pretty funny.
00:11:38.700 Russ, I want to take a quick break here.
00:11:40.220 When we return, the NSA is set to debut a podcast to boost public awareness of classified missions.
00:11:48.380 Very interesting.
00:11:49.160 It sounds like more of a disinformation podcast.
00:11:52.260 And Jake Sullivan's over in China, and he's not talking foreign policy.
00:11:55.880 He's talking climate.
00:11:57.460 We're coming right back with Russ Tice.
00:11:59.060 Stay with us.
00:12:05.340 We're back.
00:12:06.060 We're talking with former NSA senior intel analyst and whistleblower Russ Tice.
00:12:09.920 And Russ, right before we went to break, we were talking about what maybe some would call conspiracy.
00:12:14.020 But, you know, for everyone who lamented over that quick commercial break and said, you know, what the hell is Russ and John talking about? 0.97
00:12:21.040 Are they crazy? 0.66
00:12:21.740 You know, the CIA, the NSA would do this.
00:12:24.460 Folks, just so you know, without saying too much, Russ was in the NSA for years.
00:12:28.620 He knows all the things this country is capable of doing and things that they have done.
00:12:33.040 Not that he shared anything with me in full disclosure, but just imagine what Russ has seen over the years at his years at NSA.
00:12:40.540 And we'll leave it with that.
00:12:41.760 Russ, I want to turn to the NSA debuting a podcast to boost public awareness of classified missions.
00:12:47.540 From an agency that's without so much disinformation, what are your thoughts on this?
00:12:55.240 Well, remember, when they were trying to justify all their domestic spying, they were saying originally General Alexander said there's like they've thwarted like 55 or something, you know, terrorist attacks.
00:13:07.860 And then when their feet got put to the fire, it came down to one, I think, and ultimately that one could have easily been thwarted with your normal gumshoe investigation type techniques.
00:13:21.860 So it's this is another, you know, the NSA has done this before.
00:13:27.200 You know, I've seen some of these puff interviews that have been done in the past where they invite people in to see the the the NSOC and the different wonderful things that they have at the Fort NSA was the Fort Meade.
00:13:40.660 We just call it the Fort.
00:13:41.940 And and and and the press is, oh, how wonderful.
00:13:45.460 And now they're going to say, yes, we do things overseas.
00:13:48.960 Most of what I did was overseas and I can't talk about most all of it.
00:13:53.900 But but so that's NSA's job.
00:13:58.020 Yes, we go.
00:13:58.700 We do things.
00:14:00.260 We plant things.
00:14:02.960 We destroy.
00:14:05.860 What do you mean by that?
00:14:07.680 We we we we said little, you know, we do interesting things that I can't talk about.
00:14:15.000 And so it's you can't tease the audience like that, Russ.
00:14:18.920 Yeah.
00:14:19.400 Yeah, it's a people are going to start to think that the NSA does bad things to American people by you saying things like that.
00:14:26.920 The whole idea is to do these things.
00:14:30.220 So if I if I really hated your guts, John, and, you know, first of all, I'd make your fiance think you're cheating on her.
00:14:40.080 You know, you might be doing me a favor. 0.91
00:14:43.240 Perhaps they'll make your girlfriend think you're cheating on her, too, by the way.
00:14:47.060 Bigger favor.
00:14:49.360 But then I'd plant some funky things in your in your in your phone or whatever or or or your your your television or something, you know, or in your vehicle to make, you know, if I really hated you, you know, I'd I'd make sure that thing happened just as you're pulling out and trying to get, you know, in front of a tractor trailer.
00:15:08.860 And, you know, don't want to get T-bone.
00:15:10.360 But you had mentioned to me one time I think might have been on the show when you were going through some issues when you became a whistleblower that you'd got in your car and your radio stations were all changed or reprogrammed.
00:15:23.360 How do you suppose that happened?
00:15:26.900 Well, normally what they do is they I think they they they unplug the the wire that goes to the the battery.
00:15:35.880 Well, when you undo the battery, you wipe out everything in the radio, all the the preset, you know, the radio programs, the music program.
00:15:44.780 So so what they did is they they forgot to reprogram the phone after they tapped the car or put in a GPS or whatever they did.
00:15:53.860 Who do you suppose they are?
00:15:55.700 I think that was NSA that did that one.
00:15:58.420 I'm pretty sure that was NSA former co-workers, huh?
00:16:02.120 Yeah. And you know what I did? I sent an email to myself and I said, damn it, you morons.
00:16:07.620 You forgot to put in my in my my my preset programs. 1.00
00:16:12.600 And oh, and they broke a knob on my thing on my radio.
00:16:16.640 I said, I want the knob fixed and I want my programs back.
00:16:20.160 And guess what? Two days later, everything was fixed.
00:16:24.700 Oh, my God.
00:16:27.220 It's just it's just crazy nonsense. 1.00
00:16:29.760 I could tell you stupid FBI stories all day long, but we don't have time for that. 0.99
00:16:35.200 But that's why when I mentioned, you know, when we came out of commercial break that, you know, everyone needs to have an open mind, whether it sounds like conspiracy or not. 0.99
00:16:44.520 There are some truths to it.
00:16:45.840 I think since 2015, we learned a lot about what the government can do, what they did to President Trump and, you know, what they've done down the line over the course of the last nine years to their to our own American people.
00:16:57.480 You know, it's truly a disgrace. I want to turn to some some news overseas.
00:17:01.500 Jake Sullivan over in China right now, of course, or maybe he's auditioning for his next job.
00:17:06.700 Seems to be the what people do these days when they get ready to leave office.
00:17:11.620 He's over there to talk about a climate crisis and not unduly cut trade with China in talks with Beijing.
00:17:18.320 What is going on? Why are we sending Jake Sullivan over to China in the first place?
00:17:24.020 The guy really doesn't know. I'll refrain my language here, but he really doesn't know much.
00:17:30.040 Well, I think this is probably a classic butt kissing exercise. 0.99
00:17:36.540 This is, you know, we want to be friends.
00:17:41.800 You know, we want to have trade.
00:17:43.700 And oh, by the way, when I get out, I want to have a schmoozy job making making, you know, you know, a half a mil or something like that.
00:17:50.340 So, you know, I I still say I still believe that we have one window left and that's in the middle October till towards the end of November.
00:18:04.200 If China is going to invade Taiwan, they have to do it before the the monsoon season starts in December.
00:18:11.020 So and I'm sure they do not want to face President Trump toe to toe.
00:18:16.640 They don't want to go toe to toe with President Trump.
00:18:18.460 Well, the issue the issue would go in toe to toe with President Trump is, I think, since President Trump has left office in January of 2020, 2021, rather.
00:18:29.160 I think he's lamented on some things he didn't do so right with China.
00:18:32.900 And the obviously the big thing being not holding them accountable for sending over the China virus, which now seems like it was probably on purpose and manmade, not out of a lab from rats or dogs or whatever they said and eaters or whatever animals they said from the wet market. 0.76
00:18:51.420 So, you know, I you know, I'm not so sold that China is going to do anything.
00:18:55.140 I think even if they were to do it before the November election, you still face the prospect of President Trump come in and coming in and airing out all his grievances that he's he's had with China, you know, for the last years that he's had to think about.
00:19:11.440 What are your thoughts on that? 0.88
00:19:14.100 Well, Xi Jinping's not stupid. 0.96
00:19:16.980 He knows that President Trump is tough.
00:19:19.260 He knows that the first thing that's liable to happen are sanctions for because they put so many restrictions on when we try to sell our own products in China.
00:19:30.640 A lot of companies have found out that it's not so lucrative dealing with China.
00:19:35.340 So, you know, and he wants he wants to make a name for himself before it before it's time for him to go.
00:19:43.480 So now's the time for him.
00:19:49.140 Now's the time to make a name.
00:19:51.180 And I I hate to say that it could be Taiwan, but I'll be honest.
00:19:56.860 I think it's Taiwan.
00:19:58.620 So I'd make the most sense for it to be Taiwan.
00:20:01.580 If they take Taiwan quickly and they take all those fab facilities, get all the new AI chips that are coming out are all coming out of Taiwan.
00:20:10.340 China would control 91 percent of all semiconductor production in this country.
00:20:17.340 And basically, they would have the world by the short hairs.
00:20:20.880 And it's ultimately we'd all have to capitulate because we need a chip to run our car.
00:20:27.000 We need a chip to run our alarm clock and and every other thing that we use on the planet these days.
00:20:33.000 So it's, you know, I think the the most recent thing is somebody looking for a job and basically, you know, shining their shoes for them.
00:20:43.140 We're going to take a quick break here.
00:20:44.200 We're talking with Russ Trice, Russ Tice, former NSA senior in Telenos and whistleblower.
00:20:48.580 Russ, when we return on the other side of the world, we have another war and it's in Ukraine with Russia.
00:20:54.560 Poland just announced they've approved a record military budget for 2025.
00:20:59.740 What do they know that we don't know?
00:21:01.280 We're taking a quick break here.
00:21:02.580 When we return, we're coming back with Russ.
00:21:04.180 Stay with us.
00:21:10.400 We're back.
00:21:11.200 We're talking with former NSA senior intel analyst and whistleblower Russ Tice.
00:21:14.980 Russ, right before we went to break, we were talking about Poland approving a record budget of nearly forty nine billion dollars for their military for 2025.
00:21:24.240 Poland borders Ukraine.
00:21:27.240 Ukraine Ukraine's in a war with Russia.
00:21:30.160 What do you see when you see Poland doing something like that? 0.99
00:21:34.160 We start to see the elements of an escalation here.
00:21:37.040 You know, we're looking at potentially Russian and Belarusian troops massing to the north.
00:21:44.720 Poland countering that to to their west.
00:21:51.840 We're talking about lobbying, you know, our missiles, you know, 300 to 400 miles into Russia from Ukraine.
00:22:00.440 You know, they all have USA stamped on them.
00:22:03.800 And we and now we have F-16s that are floating around.
00:22:06.520 I I'll bet you dollars to donuts to that those pilots that are piloting those F-16s are bred right here in the United States, even though they might be wearing Ukrainian uniforms. 0.67
00:22:18.840 They're they're not Ukrainians. 0.69
00:22:21.000 There are there are guys.
00:22:22.140 So this this is getting ugly.
00:22:25.620 Now, some people say this is just the means to to to negotiate with a better standing with Putin.
00:22:32.700 But this could spiral out of control very quickly.
00:22:36.680 Everyone seems to forget that the Russians have have tactical nukes and nukes and they have the intercontinental stuff, too.
00:22:43.860 So we're playing with fire here and this is all bad news.
00:22:50.720 So do you think the World War three drum is coming? 0.65
00:22:52.560 You know, you had mentioned I mean, the truth of the matter is, is there's a potential for war on every quarter of this earth, whether it's in China, whether it's in Iran. 0.75
00:23:02.600 We've got one in Russia and Ukraine.
00:23:04.360 We've got one in Gaza and Israel.
00:23:06.480 So, I mean, do you think the World War three drum is is intensifying?
00:23:13.800 If you think so, why?
00:23:16.520 This all comes down to one question.
00:23:18.760 Does does does President Putin want to take over everything that he had in the Iron Curtain in the East Bloc and then wipe into everything into, you know, France and Germany and in Spain and Portugal and Belgium and Netherlands?
00:23:35.300 And, you know, the whole the whole kid caboodle.
00:23:37.100 I say the answer is no, he does not.
00:23:40.520 They want to be respected.
00:23:42.860 You know, basically with Ukraine, we thumbed our nose at them and we said, you know, OK, we're going to consider Ukraine into NATO. 0.97
00:23:49.600 And so many years ago, when the Soviet Union was falling apart, we promised the Russians that we would not move one inch further east with NATO.
00:24:02.040 And we we lied.
00:24:03.780 We lied.
00:24:05.000 Now, the Russians. 0.94
00:24:05.900 That's an important point, Russ, because that's that's one that you don't hear on the mainstream media.
00:24:09.000 And everyone was wearing their Ukraine, American flag pins.
00:24:13.120 You know, there's people are saying it's, you know, completely unjustified or whatever.
00:24:17.200 But what you just mentioned is a very, very important point for for everyone listening.
00:24:22.420 Well, you know, not only that, but the Russians tend to be paranoid.
00:24:25.300 I mean, think what happened with the Golden Horde and the Mongols. 0.72
00:24:28.560 The hell, the Swedens invade the Poles invaded Russia. 0.99
00:24:32.420 Then you had Napoleon and then, of course, Adolf Hitler. 0.77
00:24:36.520 So, you know, it's not like they don't have a little bit of a background where they're maybe justified to be just a tad paranoid.
00:24:44.560 And you've got to understand when any time you're dealing with anyone, you have to understand who you're dealing with.
00:24:49.380 And some of these people in the State Department, you know, and our military, I don't think they have a clue of who they're dealing with or take the time to find out.
00:24:58.560 Right.
00:24:59.000 You know, we've dumped billions of dollars into this place in Ukraine.
00:25:03.540 What we've got for it to show not much.
00:25:06.140 I mean, they're losing the war.
00:25:07.320 We've heard numerous times they were winning the war is going to be over shortly.
00:25:11.820 I mean, now, after all this time, it's still going billions of dollars later.
00:25:15.740 I guess at what point does it stop?
00:25:18.280 I want to turn to another place in Europe, and that's France.
00:25:21.760 Telegram CEO, Pavel Derov, apparently declined in 2018 to move the headquarters of Telegram into Paris.
00:25:31.480 Six years later, he's arrested in France, held on five million euro bail for failure to, we'll say, censor on his on his platform.
00:25:43.640 What does it sound like, Russ?
00:25:46.000 Well, I think that tells us that the deep state is not just the deep state in the United States.
00:25:52.060 This is a global, a global deep state.
00:25:54.780 You know, this is the guy, was it Hans, whatever his name is, who looks like a James Bond villain, Klaus, I forget his name.
00:26:08.720 But this is, basically, they want a global control capability, and they want total censorship of everything on the globe.
00:26:19.440 And the Europeans are lockstep, apparently, with what's going on with this.
00:26:27.660 And I'm certainly, you see some vestiges of Europeans saying enough is enough. 0.95
00:26:32.740 But we need our European cousins to step up and say, you know, they have to vote these clowns out of there as well, not just ourselves.
00:26:42.300 And hopefully, President Trump will have some of his, you know, kindred there to deal with, and we can sweep these chaos merchants out of everywhere.
00:26:56.280 Yeah.
00:26:56.540 There's a reason why Elon Musk is hated by the enemies.
00:27:01.820 We'll call them the enemies.
00:27:02.860 The Emmanuel Macron's of the world, the Joe Biden's of the world, the Kamala Harris's of the world.
00:27:08.320 It's because they're a threat to these people for the exposure of all the wrong that they've done.
00:27:14.100 And I think it's slowly starting to come out now, whether it be Andrew Tate being indicted multiple times and still haven't found guilty of it,
00:27:22.520 or the founder of Telegram, or the multiple attacks against Elon Musk here in America by the SEC, or against Elon Musk in Brazil.
00:27:31.060 You know, it's truly sad.
00:27:32.860 You had mentioned we have an election coming up in October, I'm sorry, October, in November.
00:27:39.200 Mitch McConnell is apparently in the Senate moving to silence and get rid of the SAVE Act, which was the Voter Integrity Act that was passed by the House of Representatives,
00:27:50.180 opening the door to illegals voting in the elections.
00:27:52.600 What do you expect come November 5th with Donald Trump and Kamala Harris?
00:27:57.560 And if Kamala is to win, what does that mean for the world?
00:28:00.020 Well, first of all, it could very well mean the end of our republic.
00:28:07.700 You're right.
00:28:08.560 This woman has signs of being a crazed, power-hungry, I'll have to moderate my language here, 1.00
00:28:18.860 someone who has no respect for our Constitution, a literal domestic enemy of the Constitution, 0.72
00:28:28.880 that we could end up, you know, in the White House.
00:28:31.920 And I think they're going to run full bore to try to cheat as much as they can.
00:28:36.760 We just hope that this thing is going to be too big to rig for our guy, and we can get President Trump back in there to clean house.
00:28:47.940 And I'll do anything I can if he wants me to help him.
00:28:51.920 I know where all the skeletons are on the intel side of the house.
00:28:55.580 And there's a whole lot of stench that needs to be cleaned up in that closet.
00:28:59.760 Yeah, there's no doubt that President Trump needs people like Russ Tice around him.
00:29:05.460 He hasn't had some of the best people working for him in the past, and I think he's realized that now.
00:29:11.000 And I think that this next administration come January, should he hopefully win, will look a lot different and act a lot different than the ones we've seen in the past.
00:29:21.900 Russ, thanks for all you do.
00:29:23.360 Thanks for joining us here today on The Great America Show.
