The Great America Show - Deep State is ALIVE and they're COMING FOR YOU!

00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Great America Show.

00:00:04.940 It's great to have you with us on a beautiful day in America.

00:00:07.300 Well, not if you're here in the Northeast.

00:00:08.700 It's rainy and muggy and not so nice.

00:00:11.460 I hope everyone had a great Fourth of July with your friends, your families, your loved

00:00:15.460 ones, and for anyone who got to go out to Washington, D.C. to see that amazing spectacle

00:00:20.340 that took place over in the National Mall, President Trump, unrelenting, didn't care

00:00:25.300 what time of the night it was, didn't care what time of the morning it was.

00:00:28.560 he was destined to give a speech he said uh many of our fighters throughout history went through

00:00:35.480 the worst conditions possible fought through the worst conditions possible so it was nothing for

00:00:39.880 him to wait a few hours through the rain uh to give a speech which he ultimately did addressing

00:00:45.680 tens of thousands of people who refused to leave the national mall to see the president and to see

00:00:51.700 the i think it was the largest fireworks show they ever seen uh over uh washington dc so it

00:00:57.280 Absolutely amazing time.

00:01:00.000 Like I said, I hope you all had a great weekend with your family and your loved ones.

00:01:03.740 We're live tonight for The Great America Show, so wherever you're tuned in from, let us know.

00:01:07.080 If you're joining us on Rumble, YouTube, or Twitter, please be sure to hit the like, subscribe, and follow button.

00:01:12.080 I want to turn to a story that's been conquering the news not just for the last week, not just for the last month, not the last two months, not the last two years, but probably the last 20 years.

00:01:24.120 and it's the surveillance state here in america the surveillance state that has dominated

00:01:29.680 this country here at home and abroad but predominantly here at home which i think a

00:01:36.380 lot of americans have taken great issue with why are we being surveilled by our own government

00:01:41.320 here at home we're american citizens most of us doing nothing wrong actually i take that back

00:01:46.340 Probably 99% of us are doing nothing wrong.

00:01:51.920 So why is our federal government spying on us?

00:01:55.140 Why are they tapping our phones?

00:01:57.020 Why are they monitoring our communications?

00:01:59.000 Why are they taking word for words?

00:02:01.180 Why are they storing them?

00:02:03.360 What's that all have to do with?

00:02:05.240 Is it a matter of controlling us? 0.88

00:02:08.620 Is it a matter of putting us in a surveillance state, as you'd see in China? 0.62

00:02:13.500 What's it all about?

00:02:14.300 I want to bring in our guest today.

00:02:16.040 He's a friendly face, friend of the Great America Show, friend of mine, friend of the great Lou Dobbs, former senior NSA intel analyst and great American and great whistleblower.

00:02:25.680 A man who was talking about this long before anybody else, and he certainly paid the price for it, had everything taken from him pretty much, tried to destroy his life.

00:02:36.360 But as you can see, they didn't succeed in that last part.

00:02:39.380 Russ Tice, always a delight to have you with us, my friend.

00:02:42.700 Great to see you again.

00:02:43.600 And let's start with Section 702 of FISA.

00:02:48.020 It expired about a month ago.

00:02:50.020 I think June 12th it expired.

00:02:52.460 In my book, that means absolutely nothing.

00:02:54.380 Expiration date on it means nothing because they're probably still running, you know, their whole undercover operation.

00:02:59.900 But you reached out to me last week for the holiday weekend and expressed that, you know, you have some big, big issues with the renewal of 702.

00:03:09.100 And it's something you've spoken out about for quite some time now, long before I was talking about it.

00:03:15.660 Your thoughts, Russ, as 702 is up for renewal.

00:03:19.020 And I think some members of Congress are finally starting to catch on that this might not be the best route for America.

00:03:26.760 You know, 702 was attached to the FISA, I think it was in 08.

00:03:32.540 And this was after I came out and said, hey, you know, we've got to do something.

00:03:39.100 And then ultimately became a whistleblower to let the world know that NSA was spying on every single American in this country.

00:03:45.600 So they come up and they're supposed to have reform.

00:03:49.640 So 702 is supposed to involve only foreign communications.

00:03:56.160 And, oh, by the way, if an American gets pulled into that a little bit, they're supposed to have all these protections.

00:04:02.760 And, of course, that all just got watered down.

00:04:06.540 They add the lone wolf to the category, which means and who defines what the lone wolf is, by the way, whether they're going to be involved in terrorism or, you know, a lone wolf, apparently, under the Biden administration was a was a mother who stood up at the at the the school board who wanted to mutilate her children and have her daughter be subjected to dudes, you know, dance around naked in their in their locker rooms.

00:04:34.360 So and then and then you've got exigent circumstances and you've got the AG and you've got the now, you know, they can do this for a period of time with someone determines a president determines it's an emergency.

00:04:51.260 And it's just got watered down.

00:04:53.220 And over and over again, every time something happens where they get caught with their pants down,

00:04:58.740 they say, we're going to have reforms and we're going to, the FBI is going to make sure that they don't have so many inquiries.

00:05:06.380 And by the way, what the FBI is doing is they're surveying NSA's database of all the communications that NSA has collected.

00:05:15.640 And NSA collects word for word every communication in this country, everything.

00:05:21.640 It all gets stored in Bluffdale, Utah, and to be dealt with later.

00:05:27.260 And their definition is unless we pull up that communications and we look at it, it's just stored and it's not considered surveillance.

00:05:36.460 Yes, they've collected it.

00:05:38.420 They've stored it.

00:05:39.580 But because, hey, we haven't done anything with it yet, we're not going to call that surveillance.

00:05:43.740 So it's all semantics.

00:05:45.640 And it's it's just a joke. What they're doing, they use this against our president.

00:05:52.540 They use this against President Trump to get to get the connectors with the Carter page and then ultimately went after his entire campaign.

00:06:01.900 And it beguiles me that President Trump would would would say, OK, I'm going to sign this if Congress passes it.

00:06:11.380 And now it's being used as a football as to who's going to become the new DNI.

00:06:21.020 Oh, you know, if this guy, Pulte, is going to be in there, we're not going to allow 702.

00:06:27.320 Well, 702 is unconstitutional.

00:06:30.560 Actually, the FISA court is unconstitutional.

00:06:32.780 And the few that said, hey, at least attach a rider on that that says, you know, we will have a court warrant for an American that's going to be subjected to this, that got shot down. 0.99

00:06:50.640 So it's the continuation of the police state, the dystopian 1984 Orwellian nightmare, and they're just bantering it about, oh, because it's so important, you've got to have this, you've got that idiot Tom Cotton. 0.96

00:07:12.160 And I wonder what goods they have on that guy. 0.98

00:07:16.800 Oh, I think I know.

00:07:17.560 i don't but but i think the problem is nsa has been using this more than likely to blackmail

00:07:24.540 most all of them because i i knew back way back when that they were using it to to go after

00:07:30.900 congressmen and and uh and and the big wigs in the in the press and uh all the movers and shakers

00:07:38.600 and why would they do that for blackmail purposes and like i've said before nsa and the intel

00:07:44.860 community has been swimming in money.

00:07:47.460 They go to Congress and say, we want this

00:07:49.040 much, and the Congress says, well, how about we

00:07:51.000 give you 50% more, just for

00:07:53.000 good measure? That's the kind of

00:07:54.980 nonsense that's going on. 0.68

00:07:58.400 I think we mentioned

00:07:59.840 offline here, but NSA just built

00:08:02.860 a brand new

00:08:04.260 computer-slash-data

00:08:06.740 center. It's called the

00:08:08.560 Emerson

00:08:08.920 Complex. NSA has

00:08:12.880 numerous campuses not just the main campus they have numerous campuses all over maryland and of

00:08:18.620 course we have facilities all around the world but um more than 50 buildings by the way the total

00:08:23.840 buildings and you know mainly in the central maryland area that uh this new facility is the

00:08:30.660 ai facility for nsa now they can use unbelievable that to literally take all the information every

00:08:38.040 single phone number and and map it out who it's who where it's gone how it's gone there any

00:08:44.780 interactions make make uh assumptions on what what kind of communications and what kind of you know

00:08:50.660 interactions in this person is uh you know what kind of you know are they cheating on their wife

00:08:56.480 or do they have cancer do you know or does that go to the insurance company so they can't get the

00:09:02.200 insurance for the cover their cancer treatments so this thing is gotten is become a nightmare

00:09:07.980 um at the ai level um nsa and darper at the forefront of it they always were by the way so

00:09:15.160 yeah and people just just shake their head like oh who cares you know i'm not doing anything wrong

00:09:21.140 and i i just it's i mean i threw away my career to get this word out and it seems that no one

00:09:28.020 no one cares and congress has been compromised and the the deep state police state run run the

00:09:34.260 lifeblood of that is nsa and the intelligence community they just they will live on i i fear

00:09:40.340 after trump and trump himself is going to allow it so what the hell president trump that's the

00:09:48.000 thing that boggles my mind you know you mentioned compromise and it's something we hear about all

00:09:51.880 the time from many even from members inside congress who are squeaky clean they you know

00:09:55.840 they even come out and they say oh you know that people may be compromised you've mentioned uh tom

00:10:00.580 cotton before i mean there's been allegations that he's had an affair on his wife and it was

00:10:04.740 not with another woman so you know it's time and time again where you're here and like i said it's

00:10:09.980 just an allegation i don't know if it's true but um i think that you know everything that's said

00:10:14.740 probably has um some credibility to it at least a little bit you know the same thing has been

00:10:20.680 been said about lindsey graham so you know dc is like the the worst kept secret it's like something

00:10:26.340 comes out and it's like, oh, we knew about that forever. Why didn't you tell anybody else? So

00:10:31.620 it is an institution that I think is completely compromised, an institution that's bought and

00:10:36.480 paid for by whatever sector. You mentioned the health care sector, which I think is a top three

00:10:40.840 lobbying sector that pays politicians. It's big pharma. It's a total, total trap.

00:10:48.500 Going back to 702 and President Trump, what do you think they have? I don't think they have dirt

00:10:55.500 on president trump and i've said this a million times because everything about this man has been

00:11:00.040 aired out in the public before what do you think they've gotten to him who has gotten to president

00:11:05.300 trump and what have they told him that he's now so set on 702 i you know the old line is oh they

00:11:13.580 have to say that oh this is so important that lives will be lost and unless we have this you

00:11:19.920 This was some general Alexander put out, said 62 subsystems or, you know, we found out from this.

00:11:27.080 And we found out that it was it was one out of 62.

00:11:31.460 Alexander was lying through his teeth, as he always did when it came to this sort of thing.

00:11:35.480 And even that one NSA was just a contributing factor.

00:11:39.940 The gumshoe is leather is what really got the work done.

00:11:45.080 So they lie and they lie. 0.60

00:11:47.480 And I don't know whether it's President Trump, you know, buying buying this nonsense or is do they have dirt on President Trump or he's being there's no or is he just a lotus eater and he's just being lulled into into a la la land where he just says, well, this is no big deal.

00:12:07.920 It's I don't know.

00:12:09.820 Trump's bird has been aired out, Russ.

00:12:11.940 There's literally nothing.

00:12:13.540 They've tried to get him on Epstein 100 times.

00:12:15.920 They tried to get him. I mean, we witnessed the lawsuits and everything together.

00:12:20.100 They've tried to get this man every single way till they can, till the sun came out.

00:12:24.480 And there's nothing on everything I think has been aired out on this guy.

00:12:29.020 So I think it's somebody who's gotten to him and said, listen, you know, this is what my biggest disappointment is in people like Kash Patel,

00:12:35.800 who I've known for a long time, I think is always a good guy that he's now going along.

00:12:40.760 I mean, this is a man who, you know, came out and fought for years and called them government gangsters.

00:12:47.640 I have a book that's sitting right behind me in my studio here signed from Kash Patel.

00:12:51.520 You know, it says, John, keep up the fight. We're going to win or something along those lines.

00:12:55.280 And I look at it every now and then. I'm like, you know, what fight?

00:12:59.320 What fight are we winning? What fight are we even fighting at this point?

00:13:03.480 And what is being done?

00:13:05.040 I think that's one that's really let me down because I thought cash was going to go in there and absolutely throw haymakers.

00:13:11.120 I thought the FBI headquarters was going to be shut down, as he said, and turned into a museum.

00:13:15.620 I believed everything he said because I always knew him to be a man of conviction.

00:13:18.840 But it's like at this point, what have we really gotten that's different from Christopher Wray?

00:13:26.060 Well, I think he's they're stroking his ego.

00:13:28.760 They're calling him the big boss and he's jetting around on his private Learjet or Gulfstream or whatever.

00:13:34.780 so it's you know he's living you know he's uh you know he's got a fancy girlfriend he's getting to 0.93

00:13:43.080 go all these cool places that you know so i think i get it that shit all runs out i mean that stuff

00:13:48.940 gets real boring after a while you know it the same thing with you you know you've seen probably

00:13:54.420 all the craziest stuff in the world through the nsa and the cia and it's like you know first you

00:13:59.700 probably thought it was cool the bells and whistles and you're like all right like next

00:14:03.740 I think the glamour and writs of it runs out after a while, and it's a year and a half in.

00:14:11.360 Well, you know, when I was in the Middle East, I get to fly around on some Air Force, you know, corporate-style jets to bang around here and there, and it's kind of cool.

00:14:21.240 You know, quite often you're sitting next to a general or an admiral, and I get to banter about, and I was getting to drive them to and fro and, you know, talk.

00:14:29.700 So it makes you feel like a bigwig, you know.

00:14:32.960 Look, I'm important, you know.

00:14:34.980 But in the end, you know, your job, you're a public servant.

00:14:39.220 You know, that's your real job.

00:14:41.600 And you serve at the pleasure of the president, but your real consumer is the U.S. citizen to make sure that they're protected.

00:14:51.100 I mean, I was over in the Middle East for, I don't know, five months.

00:14:54.100 I came back and we had 9-11, and the only way I found out about it is the same way you did.

00:14:58.580 And I and a lot of other of my cohorts, we just felt horrible.

00:15:06.260 So it's, yeah, but at some point, Cash Patel has got to say, look,

00:15:11.660 as a matter of fact, in the last few months, I've had the FBI back on my tail.

00:15:16.440 And I think it's because I've tried to contact some folks in Congress to talk to them about 702

00:15:22.560 and how pernicious this thing is to the American people.

00:15:26.320 And the way that the NSA has just been ballooning as far as its capabilities in this arena, spying on U.S. citizens, and it's just getting worse. 0.99

00:15:39.200 But now I got the FBI back on my ass. 0.99

00:15:42.260 I'm sorry about that. 0.99

00:15:47.560 So it's like these people are being subsumed by the deep state.

00:15:53.420 they are they are they are turned they're being turned into monsters like that one

00:15:58.140 that one movie doom where where the hero turns into a monster uh um that has to be dealt with

00:16:06.520 that uh it's it's it's it's sad

00:16:10.340 i want to turn to something else because i think that that's obviously at the macro level

00:16:20.720 the fact of, you know, 702 and spying on American communications.

00:16:26.300 Over the weekend, I was on Twitter, and I came across a page,

00:16:29.900 a company called Flock, I believe it's called,

00:16:33.460 and I came across this website.

00:16:35.040 It's called deflock.org, and I want everybody to write it down,

00:16:38.840 and I want everyone to go spend a little bit of your time during the day

00:16:42.580 and go on this website, and I'm going to show you what it is

00:16:45.180 because I think this is absolutely one of the coolest things I've found.

00:16:48.660 It's called deflock.

00:16:49.620 If you're joining us on audio, D-E-F-L-O-C-K dot org, D-F-L-O-C-K dot org.

00:16:55.240 And what this is, is a company that is fighting back against their surveillance state.

00:17:01.480 If you live in New York, if you live in the Northeast, if you live up the whole Eastern Corridor, as a matter of fact, as I'm going to show you in just a second, you probably notice there's street cameras, there's red light cameras, there's all sorts of different cameras that are being put up in your neighborhood.

00:17:16.820 What this website has done, what these people have done, has mapped out every single surveillance camera that is in your neighborhood, every single surveillance camera that is around your neighborhood who runs it.

00:17:29.920 So if you look here, the safest place, if you look at this map to probably live, is Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota. 0.61

00:17:38.400 Canada looks pretty good this time of year, as you can see.

00:17:42.460 Now, you come over here to the northeast, and this infrared map shows everywhere, everywhere there are cameras.

00:17:52.020 So let's zoom in here.

00:17:53.980 If you see New York right here, it's absolutely pretty much covered with cameras.

00:18:01.060 Look at this.

00:18:02.240 Every single one of them shows you.

00:18:04.620 Here's New York City.

00:18:05.440 Here's Manhattan.

00:18:07.300 Every single one of them shows you.

00:18:09.000 And it'll show you the way the camera's pointing, what it's looking at.

00:18:13.580 And then if you go a little bit further and you click on it, it shows you who's monitoring the camera,

00:18:18.520 who has access to the camera, who made the camera.

00:18:22.120 This one says it's a traffic signal, and it's monitored by the New York City Department of Transportation.

00:18:27.280 Oh, that didn't change. Here we go. Share this chat.

00:18:30.440 This one's shared by the New York City Department of Transportation.

00:18:33.820 I think this website's absolutely brilliant.

00:18:35.720 And I think the guys who put this thing together are absolutely great Americans because it's now got people going to their city council saying, what the F is going on here?

00:18:46.080 Why are why are there surveillance cameras on every single corner and their fight to it to a Russ is they say, oh, well, it's it's only for serious crimes.

00:18:55.160 And I was joking with somebody at the cigar lounge last night.

00:18:57.540 I said, well, define a serious crime.

00:18:59.380 And he joked back and he said, it's a crime that you don't laugh while you're committing.

00:19:02.740 And it's like, that's what it's come to, Russ.

00:19:06.240 I mean, look at this.

00:19:07.060 This is China-level surveillance up and down the whole entire Eastern Corridor.

00:19:13.940 Florida's not much safer either.

00:19:15.400 Look at this.

00:19:17.040 All throughout here.

00:19:18.040 This is Orlando, it looks like.

00:19:20.340 Everywhere.

00:19:22.000 We're being surveilled, Russ, at every single step of the way.

00:19:26.940 I mean, look at this.

00:19:28.260 Here's Atlanta.

00:19:29.480 Now, rightfully so, they probably should be in Atlanta. 0.99

00:19:31.940 but i mean look at this shit this is absolutely insane maybe they should be covering the polling 0.95

00:19:39.200 places in atlanta i mean look at this you're gonna click anywhere and and they're up i mean 0.99

00:19:46.440 this is insanity the surveillance state we're living and now do people think this is normal

00:19:52.580 like do people think that this is how we should be living this is the the free country of america

00:19:59.620 that our founding fathers, our ancestors fought for us?

00:20:05.260 I know here in Maryland, Central Maryland, they're everywhere also.

00:20:08.840 As a matter of fact, just stones throw practically from where I'm sitting,

00:20:11.900 they put a brand new one up.

00:20:13.700 It's probably there for you to monitor you.

00:20:17.100 Well, I don't think that's specifically for me,

00:20:20.500 but at one time, the FBI put one across the street on a lamp pole.

00:20:26.260 Oh, I don't believe you.

00:20:28.180 They would never do such a thing.

00:20:29.620 And the only reason I know it, because I incorporated my next door neighbor who was a widow and she was my little spy in the neighborhood for me.

00:20:37.940 So she would inform me when when weird vehicles were coming in and doing stuff.

00:20:42.540 And she said, oh, these these guys were in and they were up with a lamp all across from your door, across from your house.

00:20:48.300 And they were putting something in the asset. And I asked her, I said, are they going to all the other lamp holes?

00:20:52.560 And she said, no, it's just across from your door, your front door.

00:20:55.880 i was like it's um so that's been a while ago but but like i said now i got the fbi back on me so

00:21:03.740 yeah who knows what the hell they're doing russ has got some of the best stories guys i i sat

00:21:09.840 last time i was in dc which was a year ago and uh can't be far enough away and uh me and russ had

00:21:15.620 uh dinner russ took me to dinner now i'm going to return the treat when russ comes to new york next

00:21:20.380 month um but the stories of russ's life folks you guys wouldn't believe what he had to go to to fly 0.92

00:21:27.640 under the radar to to not be picked up by these scum who were tracking his every move and it's 0.99

00:21:33.980 the same exact playbook that they run russ is a psychopath russ is losing his mind he's an 1.00

00:21:41.080 alcoholic he's a drunk he's this he's that and it's like anyone who wants to speak up and tell 0.99

00:21:45.540 the truth all of a sudden they're a plant they're uh they're an alcoholic they're a drug addict

00:21:51.760 whatever it is it's the same playbook and the fact that people believe into this stuff is

00:21:57.620 absolutely crazy uh people look at guys like uh edward snowden who i think did

00:22:03.700 a little much but the premise of what he did i think was absolutely right now that we look at it

00:22:10.140 uh or julian assange these people were trying to open our eyes up to what's going on in this

00:22:15.360 country and and they were treated i i wish president trump would pardon them uh to be

00:22:19.780 honest with you i really wish he would so they can come to america and they can tell their story

00:22:23.740 about what took place and and they tried to warn us they tried to warn us before this really blew up

00:22:29.200 what was really going on and and and now they're i don't even know what countries they're living in

00:22:35.060 now well you know i owe a huge debt to edward snowden because he codified the things i'd said

00:22:41.520 many years earlier with with their own documentation so they could know and and they called me crazy

00:22:46.960 think about it i've got the highest clearances and and specialize in sap programs which are the

00:22:52.520 highest classified programs well beyond tss right so if you're crazy what does that what does that

00:22:57.300 make them for giving you the clear and i just had a psyche i had psyche pionic psyche valves and i

00:23:02.240 passed one just nine months prior and the and i had polygraphs i had so many polygraphs you know

00:23:08.320 It was just crazy. 0.98

00:23:09.100 Every time I get so many SAP programs, I had to go for another damn polygraph. 0.96

00:23:13.040 But I learned how to beat a polygraph, by the way. 0.93

00:23:16.960 It would be easy if you know what you're doing.

00:23:18.840 But it's like, you know, at what point? 0.58

00:23:22.720 I'm the crazy guy now.

00:23:24.100 So you're going to give the crazy guy all the highest clearances in this country?

00:23:30.500 By the way, you know that I don't talk about those SAP programs to this day because they're important to this country.

00:23:36.840 that I, you know, and I wouldn't give those up, but

00:23:40.300 the fact that they were spying on every single American, that that had to be known.

00:23:46.240 So it's, you just shake your head and go, what the hell is going on? 0.67

00:23:51.740 So, you know, hopefully the American

00:23:54.860 people will wake up and say, this is important. Contact your congressman

00:23:59.080 and say, no, no. And all right, so what,

00:24:03.080 702 is dead right now? Yeah, it expired

00:24:06.000 It expired in June, expired June, and they're waiting for the renewal.

00:24:12.560 I mean, you'd mentioned contacting your representative.

00:24:17.300 Lou used to say it all the time, 202-224-3121,

00:24:21.680 and you can ask the switchboard operator who your member of Congress is

00:24:26.580 and to connect you to their office, 202-224-3121.

00:24:31.160 Don't think that when you call it doesn't make a difference.

00:24:33.420 I've worked in congressional offices early on in my career.

00:24:37.900 It's a very small office, and many times if the phone is blowing off the hook,

00:24:41.900 a member of Congress is in the office, walking around the office.

00:24:44.520 A lot of them walk around.

00:24:45.480 They BS.

00:24:46.060 They talk with the staff, and they hear the conversations.

00:24:48.840 They hear what's on the phone.

00:24:50.700 I've been on the phone before when I worked for members of Congress,

00:24:53.040 and the congressman took the phone from me and got on the phone.

00:24:56.120 So they hear what you're saying.

00:24:59.040 So don't think just calling an office, you're calling an office,

00:25:01.960 and it's going dead.

00:25:03.040 a lot of times they figure it out especially if you guys are blowing the phones off the hook

00:25:06.980 uh metaphorically of course uh keep calling call them and call them and call them some more and

00:25:12.620 let them know you don't want to be surveilled anymore you don't want your fellow americans

00:25:16.760 being surveilled anymore 202 224 3121 202 224 3121 and let them know it's simple we don't want 0.93

00:25:26.500 to be surveilled anymore we're innocent hard-working americans we pay our damn taxes 0.91

00:25:31.660 there's no reason to be surveilling us, Russ. 0.95

00:25:35.100 And here's another thing.

00:25:36.260 If we have probable cause that someone's a real terrorist or a spy

00:25:42.560 or doing nefarious things of that nature, we can get a court.

00:25:48.600 I prefer an Article III court warrant to do the surveillance on those people.

00:25:54.740 And another thing, with the FISA court, at some point they need to tell people

00:25:59.440 if they've been surveilled and nothing came of it that by the way you have been surveilled by

00:26:03.640 by uh by the uh by the intelligence community and i believe that they have the right to see

00:26:09.080 what files were established on them right but right now you will you know i mean i know that

00:26:15.440 you know because i haven't followed me around for years that the my you know my file is thick as a

00:26:19.640 you know as a 20 tomes but um you know i i recently tried to get in touch with the fbi and

00:26:26.240 said i want i want i did a foyer request and three times now they've told me that there they have no 0.72

00:26:32.160 information on me at all and i had the fbi come to my door twice once i told them to bugger off

00:26:40.900 and another time they were there to uh give me a subpoena to a federal court because they were

00:26:47.040 trying to you know railroad me in for uh for uh for the uh the spot what you call the uh surveillance

00:26:54.400 act so to the to the rocket docket in eastern virginia by the way so there's no such thing

00:27:02.240 as whistleblower protection not to the maryland court to the rocket docket where they know

00:27:07.680 they're going to get a super rocket conviction for whatever the hell they want that's how it

00:27:12.200 works and you know what even if they don't get a conviction rust they've bled you dry with money

00:27:16.580 they bled you dry uh making you have lawyers represent you because everyone knows how expensive

00:27:20.960 of lawyers are five hundred dollars an hour for the lawyer dc lawyers oh that's cheap now that's

00:27:26.020 yeah that's probably cheap that's cheap as heck man the the lawyers that i had representing me

00:27:31.240 uh when we got sued at fox i think we're probably in the thousands of dollars an hour and

00:27:35.540 you know i i joked i didn't i was like i don't need you guys i you know i'm here to tell the

00:27:39.860 truth uh you know i got nothing to hide i don't i don't even need a lawyer we're like oh you need

00:27:45.080 a lawyer you need a lawyer uh you know smart matic and dominion are coming and uh you need

00:27:49.640 to be right i'm like i don't need them i waste some money and lo and behold it was a six-figure

00:27:54.520 bill for absolutely nothing um a lot of times i go into these rooms and i find myself smarter in

00:28:00.560 my own opinion then some of these lawyers had lou used to joke and told me that i missed my calling

00:28:05.720 that i should have been a lawyer and i said i i think i'm far past that point i'd be a terrible 0.99

00:28:10.440 attorney uh because i wouldn't follow any of the rules it's it sucks ross it really does suck 0.71

00:28:15.720 that this is now the country that uh you know we we love and we call home it's i don't think this 0.62

00:28:20.960 is the country my parents grew up in i don't think it's the parent the country my grandparents grew

00:28:24.380 up in and i don't think it's the country my great-grandparents grew up in uh it i think

00:28:29.680 it's become a almost entirely unrecognizable country now over at dni we've lost tulsi gabbard

00:28:36.320 who they've come from from the beginning came for her neck from the beginning surveilling her

00:28:41.320 her staff her family and she said you know enough enough's enough i i didn't sign up for this i

00:28:47.100 signed up to to make america great again i didn't sign up for being surveilled so now we've got bill

00:28:53.280 pulte who's hopefully going to be in there doing a decent job awaiting mr clayton from the southern

00:28:58.140 district of new york your thoughts at the the office of the dni which seems like it's unable

00:29:04.720 to be cleaned up well i like the idea of pulte because they're so damn set against him you know

00:29:09.720 And I'm like, all right, I like this guy, just like they went after Tulsi Gabbard.

00:29:14.000 I'm like, well, at first I wasn't sure because she was a bit of a neophyte in the intelligence community.

00:29:18.660 But I'm like, OK, well, you know, she can get spun up if she has the right people on her staff who know what they're talking about.

00:29:24.780 And maybe this guy could be the same.

00:29:26.540 But the fact that the Democrats are so vehemently against him and the establishment Republicans, the neocons, that tells me that – and the Democrats are willing to barter 702 just to be able to submarine this guy.

00:29:46.280 That tells you that they have no respect for 702 or the fact that they wanted to protect the Americans from spying.

00:29:51.760 Biden certainly signed off on the reauthorizations without a problem.

00:29:57.600 So it's just a bargaining chip to them.

00:29:59.560 They could care less that the IC is spying on because they're part of the deep state and the whole cabal.

00:30:07.480 So it's just a bargaining chip.

00:30:10.560 And now I guess Pulte is not going to be able to get in there.

00:30:15.260 But I guess as an interim, he could do something.

00:30:17.240 But then this guy, he's not trying to stay either.

00:30:19.760 I mean, he wants to go back to Fannie Mae where he's done.

00:30:23.440 President Trump has lauded him for doing a terrific, terrific job over there and turning that place around.

00:30:29.280 Clayton's, I think, almost guaranteed to be even with Democrat support sworn in.

00:30:35.100 But President Trump is holding him back right now as I think they figure out the 702 thing.

00:30:39.800 So the whole thing is just in shambles right now as we're in a holding pattern, figure out what to get done.

00:30:46.920 And I guess the show goes on, but you've still got guys like John Brennan who are out there, who's actually now suing the Trump administration.

00:30:56.240 Surprisingly enough, I can't believe that man would want to go through the discovery process with everything he's done, suing the Trump administration.

00:31:02.840 And it's like people still give this guy time on air after everything he's done.

00:31:08.940 I mean, most notably, the 51 Intel spies who came out against Hunter by his laptop saying it was Russian disinformation.

00:31:14.580 what retaliation what retribution was ever held against these people who've done this and it's

00:31:21.000 nothing they've been promoted uh they've been paid more money it's a joke ross it's a joke

00:31:25.160 you know you know the violations for the vice act are still there the ten thousand dollars

00:31:31.020 of per one incident of spying against an american and and five years in jail but no one has ever

00:31:38.240 been held accountable was was hayden held accountable no alexander held accountable no

00:31:42.680 clapper held accountable no no one has ever been held it's a joke they all know they're not going

00:31:48.080 to be held and until someone is held accountable it's going to continue um now it looks you know

00:31:54.380 a bolton you know taking home you know home classified material while he's uh condemning

00:32:00.140 a president of the united states who had the right to classify stuff and have it in his place in

00:32:05.020 florida and now we find out that you know he he took all the classified notes took them home so

00:32:10.460 he could put him in some kind of book um and he's probably going to get zero zero days in jail when

00:32:17.800 i know a guy at nsa who supposedly and i think it was a setup his name was ken ford and you could

00:32:23.520 look it up on the internet accidentally took took some stuff home and they put him in jail for six

00:32:28.820 years so now was that because he was a black guy you know so you know i wonder if the you know but

00:32:36.000 But I think it's just because he wasn't connected. 0.77

00:32:41.540 You know, Obama's a black guy who got away with a whole lot of stuff.

00:32:46.940 Eric Holder. 0.94

00:32:47.800 Yeah, Eric Holder.

00:32:48.960 Look what he did with the Fast and Furious guns to the cartels that ended up killing at least one of our border guys.

00:32:56.460 Yeah.

00:32:56.700 And he never was held accountable for lying to Congress.

00:33:01.680 He should have gone to jail.

00:33:02.580 So no one, if you're part of the deep state and you're connected, you get away with whatever you want.

00:33:09.660 The guy who lied on the on the Pfizer warrant, the the FBI guy, I forget his name.

00:33:15.340 They said, oh, well, he has a family.

00:33:17.020 You know, we can't and we're just going to slap him on the wrist and suspend his like security clearance for a year.

00:33:25.520 And he's still allowed to practice law.

00:33:28.300 I forget his name.

00:33:30.180 I know exactly what you're talking about.

00:33:32.580 it's off the top of my head but no it's just a general sentiment of it all russ it's they take

00:33:40.680 us for fools these people get away with murder literally murder still don't know who killed

00:33:45.420 speaking of murder seth rich death rich yeah bnc staffer which i've done a lot of work on 0.99

00:33:50.460 my friend ty clevenger is the lead attorney who's been fighting for this um for the documents i've

00:33:57.020 had ty on the show many times um and you know we seemingly can't figure out a simple murder case

00:34:03.980 you know these are supposed to be the best and the brightest in the world in washington dc the fbi

00:34:08.260 which by the way i thought it was interesting the fbi was involved in it in a homicide why in uh

00:34:13.480 in washington dc which i don't you know i'm not a law enforcement guy i you know i don't claim to be

00:34:17.620 but you were you know worked very close through law enforcement i never heard of a the fbi showing

00:34:21.700 up to a simple homicide case of a guy shot in the park so you know there's so many inconsistencies

00:34:27.000 And the problem is, Russ, is nobody questions it. If you question it in the times of today, it's litigious. You get sued. Lou Dobbs was sued at Fox. Sean Hannity was sued at Fox. We're talking about the Seth Rich case. So it's like, you know, is it is it is it even worth it?

00:34:41.060 I mean, this is the things that us as journalists have to have to say to ourselves, you know, is it worth getting sued over trying to put the truth out? That's not normal. We should not have to question ourselves on the premise of litigation.

00:34:55.740 You know, when I was talking to Congress way back when, after the news finally came out in the New York Times, which took forever, by the way, I told them, I said, look, if you talk to any of these guys, they're going to say executive privilege, you know, because they're dealing with the executive.

00:35:12.320 I said, you need to go after the providers, the telephone companies, the credit card companies that are giving up the information, private information of U.S. citizens, the travel people that are setting up the travel, you know, all these documents were also going to NSA.

00:35:29.380 They know your credit card information and your medical information and everything else.

00:35:34.680 I said, you need to go after them and bring their CEOs in here and put them under the gun.

00:35:38.880 So what happened right after I told them to do that?

00:35:42.740 Congress gave them retroactive immunity.

00:35:48.080 And that was like, and by the way, since when is it constitutional for Congress to say they can give you immunity for violating the Constitution?

00:36:01.340 That's unconstitutional.

00:36:03.180 It's just incredible.

00:36:06.920 You can't make this stuff up.

00:36:08.600 it's like we're living in a in a time warp man like it's you know i think as we look back at this

00:36:16.440 you know 10 years from now 20 years from now we're gonna think this was if it doesn't get worse than

00:36:21.960 it has that that we lived through insanely incredible times and i don't know how we're

00:36:27.540 gonna make it out of this it's you know i try to be as optimistic as possible russ but it's so hard

00:36:34.180 to be with everything that happens as each day goes by and when you think you know donald trump's

00:36:39.440 coming in and everything's going to be okay well yeah for the most part everything is going to be

00:36:43.460 okay and he's a trillion percent better than anybody else would have been but it's like you

00:36:47.680 know we're not 100 of the way there yet well you know we're either going to be a full-fledged

00:36:54.200 police state which could happen and by the way you and me would be just executed summarily yeah

00:36:58.600 well or otherwise someone will say hopefully that someone stood up and stopped this yeah i pray that 0.96

00:37:06.940 that happens but it doesn't look good because i think the american people are lotus eaters and

00:37:12.260 they're they're all they've all got their head in the sand about this and of course the mainstream

00:37:16.720 media uh they knew they just oh yeah we and it's almost a given we have to have seven to two to

00:37:24.400 protect our country you know well that's that's bullcrap is what it is yeah i'd like them to show

00:37:29.440 us russ i'd like them to show us and they're not ever going to do it because they'll say it's

00:37:32.920 classified or this or that show us times proven instances no alleged false flags or anything like

00:37:42.080 that of times that 702 stopped some sort of terrorist attack stopped some sort of mask

00:37:50.740 casualty show us a time where that has happened and sell it to the american people if you think

00:37:58.820 this is the best way forward i'm not saying i agree with this because there's people probably

00:38:02.120 tuning out right now saying i've so no i'm not agreeing at all but i'm saying if i'm on the

00:38:06.500 other side sell it to me tell me why we need it show me why we need it and they'll never do that

00:38:11.780 why well i can make an argument that look if we had cameras in every single room of every single

00:38:18.160 person's dwelling their domicile their home including their bedrooms bathrooms everything

00:38:23.120 if we had cameras everywhere every room and every person's uh existence we would be able to know

00:38:29.320 everything and we could as uh you know the uh we would know and we could protect the american people

00:38:35.680 and if you're having relations with your with your spouse that's okay because you know that's just 0.73

00:38:41.020 you know if uh you know you got some some clowns that are monitoring that leering over it well you

00:38:45.460 know who knows but wouldn't that be wonderful if we have cameras in every single room how protected 0.99

00:38:52.220 we would be you know you know it's it's orwellian to the point of absurdity the the perniciousness

00:39:03.260 of this and it seems to be getting worse and and and they think it's normal that people think this 1.00

00:39:10.960 is normal that this is this is what a uh a country goes through this is the process of this it's not

00:39:16.280 there's nothing normal about uh what's going on here there's nothing normal about this surveillance

00:39:21.220 state let's turn to russ uh what's going on in iran policy guy uh it's sort of interesting we

00:39:36.600 had a deal we didn't have a deal we signed a memo a day later they're fighting again um it's like

00:39:45.160 you know we want to stop this thing and then trump tells netanyahu stop bombing lebanon okay next

00:39:52.840 morning we wake up and he's still bombing lebanon and it's like you know what the heck are we doing

00:39:58.960 here we have a deal we don't have a deal stop bombing lebanon bomb lebanon bomber what the

00:40:05.340 heck is going on when does this thing come to an end and how does it end i i i just don't see

00:40:10.980 how it ends where a deal is signed with iran that they give up nuclear weapons regardless

00:40:15.520 of what president trump is saying i just don't see how that how that happens i don't see how

00:40:19.920 president trump could say oh well they're still in in line with our agreement what agreement

00:40:24.200 first of all as they're blowing each other up they're saying they're still selling drones to

00:40:29.860 trying to hit the tankers yeah they've got literally they've got a city that's collecting

00:40:35.540 gold so that they could put a bounty on president trump's head to say anyone that assassinates

00:40:40.380 president trump gets gets i don't know you know so many million dollars in gold so um i don't know

00:40:47.080 whether whether president trump is is just so concerned about what happens in early november

00:40:53.020 the midterms that he's willing to overlook all this including the threats to his own life and

00:40:59.060 And I think what they're doing is they're playing him.

00:41:03.300 They're playing good cop, bad cop.

00:41:05.060 And sometimes the good cops are the other countries that are supposedly negotiating.

00:41:11.100 They're part of the good cops and the supposed moderates.

00:41:14.560 By the way, there are no moderates.

00:41:16.480 It's all nonsense.

00:41:17.500 They're playing good cop, bad cop.

00:41:19.040 They're playing the president.

00:41:21.100 And if he doesn't know it, he needs to wake up and smell the roses.

00:41:26.200 You know, there's an old, I mean, there's an old adage.

00:41:30.080 Matter of fact, I'm a history walk.

00:41:32.440 I'm not sure if you ever heard of what's called the Parthian shot.

00:41:36.500 No.

00:41:37.260 The Parthian shot was all, matter of fact, the Parthians were the ancient predecessors of the Persians.

00:41:46.880 Right.

00:41:47.160 And they fought a battle with the Romans and Cassius, who set, I think, three legions to go east and conquer a whole lot of the, I'm sorry, to go east and conquer Persia.

00:42:01.300 Well, the Parthians, they would go with, like Calvary, they would go at the legions and then they would feign and come, like they're running, like they're retreating.

00:42:11.980 The Romans would go after them and they would they would turn around on their horses and backwards start shooting arrows while they're riding forward. 0.58

00:42:20.480 They're shooting arrows and killing Romans as the Romans are pursuing them.

00:42:25.520 Well, they did this so many times that they they wiped out three Roman legions.

00:42:29.800 And Cassius was killed, who was supposedly the richest man in Rome. 0.59

00:42:34.220 So I find it very interesting and apropos that it's literally where it happened was what's now Iran, the Parthian shot, the history. 0.72

00:42:45.500 Now, it's been used by the Mongols and many others, but they're playing good cop, bad cop.

00:42:51.520 They're playing us and they're shooting arrows as they're supposedly retreating in the Parthian tradition.

00:42:57.500 And our president is just seems to be oblivious to it.

00:43:02.520 So he has to deal – he has to do the – he has to take care of business and finish this. 0.96

00:43:10.020 You know, we can't have those Marines over there for forever. 0.91

00:43:12.400 Take Cargill and secure the Straits in Bandar Abbas and then tell Iran we're going to – and blow up half the power plants and half the bridges. 0.67

00:43:25.080 it's the thing is i i the problem which what i think he has right now is i don't think he has

00:43:31.060 them in a position where they really need to make a deal because nothing really has changed

00:43:35.460 that doesn't faze these people you can kill as many as you want it literally doesn't faze them

00:43:39.700 maybe makes them a little bit mad makes them want to do a little retaliation which what they wanted

00:43:44.880 to do after comedy and uh uh who's the other guy that they killed um the first one that president

00:43:52.140 trump took out um so so money so money and then the helicopter that crashed so you know it's like

00:44:00.500 i think it enrages them more and they want to kill more americans that's the only thing it does but i

00:44:04.820 don't think it inclines them to to come any closer to a deal he's i don't think he's got them in a

00:44:09.260 position where they really need to make a deal take some of their oil facilities capture some

00:44:15.600 of their oil facilities take over some of their infrastructure and then put them in a position

00:44:20.900 where they have to make a deal.

00:44:22.000 Right now, I don't think anything has really changed

00:44:24.320 that makes a difference to them.

00:44:27.020 The bleeding of the Strait of Hormuz,

00:44:29.320 I don't think it's really hurting them

00:44:30.500 because they're still shipping oil

00:44:31.520 through the Strait of Hormuz.

00:44:32.960 So if I'm Iran, I really have no reason to make a deal 0.88

00:44:38.800 but to just continue, as you said,

00:44:40.820 to just string you along and play you like a fiddle.

00:44:44.600 You know, it's the IRGC that are the zealots.

00:44:47.540 But there are common army guys in Iran

00:44:50.760 who just want to provide for their family.

00:44:54.780 And if you stop paying them, and remember, they have guns because they're in the Army,

00:45:00.120 they're going to say, the hell with this, I can't provide for my family anymore

00:45:03.780 because they're not all zealots.

00:45:06.960 That's the problem, yeah.

00:45:08.560 When you said blow up the bridge and the power plant,

00:45:12.140 I don't necessarily agree with that, Russ, because this is the problem at war, right?

00:45:16.020 There's always innocent people who are going to die.

00:45:17.800 Not everybody in Palestine is a Palestine too. I have friends from Palestine that are terrific people, good friends of mine. Not everybody in Palestine is a bad person. Yes, there's terrorists in there that need to be killed. Not everybody in Iran is a bad person. So that's the problem that I take with, you know, back when President Trump said I'm going to level a whole civilization. There's nothing right about that. I don't think that innocent people deserve to die.

00:45:44.020 They're going through as much pain as everyone else is there. I mean, they're literally being executed by their own country. These people are going through absolute total hell as it as it stands. I don't think they necessarily hate America. So that's the problem that I see, you know, with someone. I don't know the answer, Russ, and I don't pretend to know the answer because I think it's such a hard situation with what you do here.

00:46:06.260 but i think you know crossing over to civilians is like i you know it's i don't it's it's hard

00:46:13.400 for me i i care about the human life i care about people you know and i it hurts me to to think that

00:46:18.980 there's going to be innocent people who are good people who will be killed in this which is why

00:46:24.480 like i said i don't know the answer i really don't know the answer and i hate to see this

00:46:28.660 take place just a few months ago they killed what 40 000 people in the span of four weeks

00:46:35.260 in the streets of Tehran and a couple of other major cities.

00:46:41.080 You've got to get someone with a gun to be able to go up against the IRGC 0.99

00:46:45.580 because they're thugs and they will kill them. 0.98

00:46:47.040 Yeah, we've tried that. 1.00

00:46:48.180 Look what we did with the Kurds.

00:46:49.460 I mean, we armed the Kurds.

00:46:50.360 It's like we've done this in history, Russ.

00:46:54.780 We've armed militias, and I think historically it really hasn't worked out. 0.92

00:47:00.480 Well, we've we've we've backstabbed the Kurds so many times that this time they said we've backstabbed everybody.

00:47:07.420 We're going to keep the guns because we might need them when when Turkey comes out for us again. 0.91

00:47:12.400 But look at Afghanistan. We look what we did in Afghanistan. 0.74

00:47:18.100 We turned the entire country upside down and left them. And now the Taliban's running the country. 0.80

00:47:23.300 well yeah i said over and over again it didn't matter whether whether we uh we left

00:47:30.420 you know one year five years 10 years 20 years it would go right back to the way now i figured

00:47:36.540 it would take a year or two i didn't think it would take a week or two it was a day i missed

00:47:42.740 i thought a year or two not a week or two but oh it was pretty damn quick wasn't it so all those

00:47:47.960 generals that said oh we're training these afghan soldiers and they're going to stay in a book what

00:47:52.300 a pack of what a pulling right out of their caboose that's my point so it's um but but the 0.53

00:47:58.760 the regular the regular soldiers in in the uh iranian army the ones that aren't the irgc zealots

00:48:04.520 i i think that's ultimately when when those those generals that aren't the zealots are going to have

00:48:10.580 to turn against their government and take out the mullahs until because it's apparently we can't get

00:48:16.160 guns to the to the to the people but uh it once we have a coup with and it's going to take pressure

00:48:22.560 it's going to take that soldier going well heck i can't afford that i can't provide for my family

00:48:28.680 but i have this gun and i the americans are doing this again because of the irgc zealots

00:48:36.420 maybe i'm going to go take out the mullahs and the irgc well that's the thing is the pressure

00:48:41.620 campaign. We have the greatest intelligence in the world, regardless of what anybody wants to 0.67

00:48:46.720 tell you, not MI6 or the Mossad. America's got the greatest intel in the world. You witnessed

00:48:52.020 it firsthand. We know where their leaders are. We know what bunker they're hiding in. We know

00:48:56.860 what building they're hiding in to the absolute pinpoint location. We know where they are.

00:49:02.560 If you want to put the pressure campaign on, you start chipping away. You take more of them out.

00:49:07.600 You take more until eventually there. I mean, he wiped away the whole first front and the second front.

00:49:12.000 He says we're now on the third layer of the onion of leadership there.

00:49:16.920 Start putting the pressure campaign on it there if you if you want to put the pressure, but making threats and not following through.

00:49:22.480 They think it's a joke and they're laughing in his face. And I think, you know, if there's no deal to be made, he has to figure out it should take an hour.

00:49:32.160 Are they serious or not? I don't think they're serious. So what's the next step?

00:49:35.520 You've got to start making some moves to level this thing,

00:49:40.580 level the playing field, burn down the next layer,

00:49:42.940 burn down the next layer, burn down the next layer,

00:49:44.620 until they're in a position, Russ, where they have nothing left.

00:49:48.620 And either the people take back their country or the IRGC turns.

00:49:53.760 It's the only two ways I see this thing ending.

00:49:56.220 Well, the zealots aren't going to turn.

00:49:57.400 They just soon die. 0.88

00:49:59.600 And they don't care about dying.

00:50:00.860 They don't fear anything.

00:50:02.640 You know, that's martyrdom and 72 virgins in paradise. 0.99

00:50:05.520 So it's got to be done with the rank and file.

00:50:09.360 You know, everyone allows the Mossad as such, you know, they're fantastic.

00:50:14.460 You know how the Mossad gets most of their information?

00:50:17.720 From us.

00:50:18.960 They bribe the right people in these Arab nations or Persia to give them the goods on where someone's at or whatever. 0.97

00:50:27.720 And they bribe them with our money. 0.92

00:50:29.620 Yeah.

00:50:29.740 You know, that's why the Mossad is so good, because because these people are sometimes are willing to take a million dollars to, you know, to, you know, have someone get whacked.

00:50:40.620 And we also have our own CIA who are deeply embedded.

00:50:44.300 I mean, just about every single place in the world.

00:50:47.300 Well, it's in some places it's very difficult, especially in with tribal tribal. 0.97

00:50:52.300 And I dealt with some of this when I was working with Afghanistan in particular because these people will not trust anyone unless they're known parts of their tribal community. 0.94

00:51:04.780 Just like, you know, with Tora Bora and that whole thing, we were paying off the tribal leaders and they were saying, OK, I'll take your money. 0.99

00:51:12.040 Then when it came down to it, they're like, yeah, maybe we're not going to do that.

00:51:16.120 Um, so it's, but, uh, if you bribe the right people, they'll tell you who the bad guys

00:51:22.440 are, where they're at and, and when you can drop, uh, you know, the right munitions on

00:51:26.720 them.

00:51:27.140 But, uh, and the Mossad is very good at that.

00:51:29.700 Um, but, but you're right.

00:51:32.760 We, we've got to elevate, we got to put some pressure on this and president Trump has got

00:51:37.160 to wake up and stop being played right now.

00:51:39.980 Right now they're writing a book.

00:51:41.500 It's called the art of the steel.

00:51:43.360 And they're stealing – President Trump is in the playground, and they're spinning around, and every time he spins around, they're stealing his lunch money.

00:51:52.740 So he's got to do what's got to be done.

00:51:58.720 And if you could – I think it would be done quick.

00:52:01.640 So people will forget about it by the time the November midterms come up.

00:52:06.120 But he just can't keep playing this, oh, okay, you know,

00:52:10.160 I'm going to string it on so that we can keep, you know,

00:52:13.320 oil at the 65 bucks a barrel.

00:52:17.120 Yeah, it's a joke, Russ.

00:52:19.540 Russ, we went over today just by a little bit.

00:52:22.800 We were supposed to run for a half hour, almost an hour,

00:52:25.460 but we could probably do another hour.

00:52:27.740 We'll continue this conversation when you're up in New York.

00:52:30.200 There's so much to talk about. 1.00

00:52:31.740 I could go for four hours telling you all those stupid FBI tricks. 0.99

00:52:36.120 unbelievable uh the world cup is on tonight russ so we gotta wrap because the world cup is on and 0.98

00:52:44.520 uh just over an hour america well you know i'm sorry i've the paint drying championships are

00:52:49.660 on also tonight so i'm rooting for uh for for royal blue i know beige is the is the favorite

00:52:56.440 but i'm i'm rooting for royal blue to win the championship paint drying championships tonight

00:53:00.760 so i don't know if you saw this but hey you haven't been watching the soccer i've been watching

00:53:04.860 And, you know, I really care for soccer,

00:53:06.860 but when there's sports on in the middle of that, I love sports.

00:53:09.300 This is the only television I watch.

00:53:10.740 I don't really watch anything else.

00:53:12.140 So anytime sports is on, and it's on during the day,

00:53:14.260 so I, you know, have it on in the studio.

00:53:16.040 And, you know, I followed this entire World Cup,

00:53:18.120 and I've had a great deal of fun watching it.

00:53:20.740 This guy from America, Fuller and Balogun, I think is his name,

00:53:26.160 America's best player, was given a red card.

00:53:27.980 Now, a red card, Russ, means you can't play the next game.

00:53:31.500 And it was an American player.

00:53:32.720 Now, Messi, who's probably the greatest player in the world,

00:53:34.860 committed the same penalties other people and they're uh cristiano ronaldo same penalties and

00:53:40.820 they weren't given a red card so president trump so this guy was given a red card so they told me

00:53:44.720 couldn't play today against belgium playing belgium and president trump said no no no we're

00:53:49.680 not doing this bullshit called up the president of fifa and said you need to review this red card

00:53:54.320 right now because cristiano ronaldo was given the same one and it was taken back from him 0.97

00:53:57.580 lo and behold the red card is pulled to america's best player will be in attendance today president

00:54:03.000 trump making america great again russ so you've got to tune in well you know i i was at the golf

00:54:09.100 course a few days ago and uh argentina was playing um oh who the hell are they playing um austria

00:54:18.080 so it was 102 degrees out and i after nine holes i told my wife i've had enough and my idea i forgot

00:54:26.040 my allergy pill so i'm going to the clubhouse so i watched the rest of that while my zealot

00:54:31.060 golf-loving wife has finished the 1.00

00:54:33.160 back nine. And I'm like,

00:54:34.920 I'm going to give Sakura a chance here.

00:54:37.640 And then I'm like, all right, because maybe I've

00:54:39.040 just been a little bit too, you know.

00:54:41.640 And then, of course, there's

00:54:42.780 oh, he missed.

00:54:46.220 Oh, he missed.

00:54:46.920 And then finally,

00:54:49.320 you fell in Messi there. He got

00:54:50.940 a score, and they won 1-0.

00:54:53.060 It's extremely climatic

00:54:55.020 and anticlimactic

00:54:56.320 at the same time, if that's physically possible.

00:54:59.380 I think they should put 0.96

00:55:00.880 But on each end of the field, they should have guys with water cannons, 0.96

00:55:04.300 big water cannons, and that should be part of the game.

00:55:07.280 When they get close with the ball, and make the net much bigger too,

00:55:11.500 but they can shoot them with water cannons to try to get them to slip up.

00:55:15.920 It would be a lot of fun, right? 0.75

00:55:18.420 I'll tell you what, these guys are tremendous.

00:55:20.760 I've never respected soccer the way I do now.

00:55:23.060 These guys are tremendous athletes, Russ.

00:55:24.840 So watch these guys run up.

00:55:25.840 I play a lot of basketball.

00:55:26.820 Every weekend I go out and play basketball.

00:55:28.340 and uh you know i'm dead after a few games these guys up and down the field for 60 minutes 50

00:55:34.580 minutes and i'm like i give them a certain kind of respect i've had baseball my whole life into

00:55:39.620 college well it's a lazy man sport russ you got to run like once every nine batters you got to

00:55:44.940 move left or right maybe about five feet if you're playing i was a first baseman and it was a lazy

00:55:50.340 man sport i played golf i drive in a golf car you know so uh i got a new a newfound respect for

00:55:55.560 these guys yeah i was baseball and football and um i played football too little different sports

00:56:00.720 but uh you know it's i don't know to me it's newfound respect it's a newfound respect for me
