Hello, everybody. Welcome to the Great America Show. It's great to have you with us on this
00:00:06.320
Friday night here in America or wherever you may be joining from abroad. We appreciate
00:00:10.720
you spending part of your Friday night with us when we know there's so many other places
00:00:14.140
you can be. We truly appreciate you being here, getting a head start to your weekend,
00:00:20.400
Mother's Day weekend. I want to wish you a happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out
00:00:23.920
there. You guys don't truly know how much we appreciate you, whether we show it or not.
00:00:28.620
But we're not where we are today without you guys being mothers. So happy Mother's Day
00:00:34.320
to all the wonderful mothers out there, even the not so wonderful mothers. You guys did a good
00:00:39.400
service for this country, bringing children into it in a time where there's not too many children
00:00:44.560
being brought into the country. That's a discussion for a different day. Let's get into some news of
00:00:49.540
the day. Yesterday, we brought you the story about D.C. U.S. Attorney Ed Martin. He's going to be
00:00:56.120
departing in the next few days. Judge Jeanine Pirro is going to be taking over. But that's not
00:01:00.560
the story. Not the story about Tom Tillis being the single factor and why Ed Martin won't be the
00:01:06.420
next D.C. U.S. Attorney, that rhino. That's not the story. The story is Ed Martin outside of his
00:01:12.500
office getting spit on by a radical Marxist protester. Take a listen.
00:01:27.180
Did she just call him a disgusting man as she hocked a loogie on him?
00:01:33.020
What kind of woman does that? What kind of human being does that? Who teaches you to do that? That's
00:01:38.680
reprehensible and disgusting. But we've got some good news because truth, justice, and the American way,
00:01:43.780
in my opinion, always prevails among all things. She's been identified and she's been arrested by
00:01:49.680
U.S. D.C. law enforcement. She's now in custody. The name and her details will be released shortly.
00:01:57.660
We'll bring those to you as soon as we get them. But good on the D.C. police for doing probably the
00:02:03.940
first good thing and arresting her since January 6th, you know, when they when they did a great job.
00:02:09.520
Once again, a story for a different day. Bad news for the Marxist media, as we tell you often here.
00:02:17.060
But we've got particularly bad news for Jen Psaki and MSDNC, as I like to call it.
00:02:22.480
She's taken over a new show, a 9 p.m. show on MSDNC from Tuesday to Friday for Rachel Maddow,
00:02:29.100
where she only does a Monday show. According to the Nielsen ratings, she shed a staggering 53 percent
00:02:39.380
in its demo viewers compared to the first episode just one day prior. She lost almost 67 percent of
00:02:46.660
viewers between the ages of 18 to 49. When she debuted her first episode on Tuesday, she debuted
00:02:54.880
with 1.2 million viewers, 139,000 in the advertising. When they say demo, that's the
00:03:01.380
the the number that advertisers use when they buy advertising. You tell them what your numbers are
00:03:06.820
on your demo, and that's what they pay based on because that's what their their target audience is.
00:03:11.820
So 139,000 in her demo of 25 to 54. Her second episode on Wednesday plummeted to just over a million
00:03:18.560
viewers, 65,000 in the key demo. That is embarrassing, folks. That is embarrassing because
00:03:26.100
that's like I said, that's how you you pay for your show. That's how you you make your money.
00:03:32.200
That's how you sell advertising. So Jen Psaki doesn't look like she's going to have a very long career
00:03:37.000
over at MSNBC unless they're in favor of bleeding money, which is also possible. So I won't speak
00:03:42.920
too soon. Right. Dylan Mulvaney, you folks may remember that name. That's the gentleman who ran
00:03:49.840
that Bud Light campaign that absolutely spiraled the company into the ground, destroying it.
00:03:56.280
Absolutely destroying it. Well, Dylan Mulvaney, he's back. We'll play the video for you here.
00:04:03.580
I think this is the best I've ever looked. Pretty sure. I'm pretty sure headed to a Versace event.
00:04:09.600
And yeah, I think I think this is it. Right. OK. OK. Love you.
00:04:22.580
For a second, I thought that was Caitlin Collins from CNN. Well, Versace is a new company that she's
00:04:28.520
spokesman in and representing. So if you own any stock of Versace, you can know that that's the
00:04:34.880
next company that's probably going to go down the tubes. Truly remarkable that these people didn't
00:04:40.340
learn their lesson from Bud Light. But heck, maybe it works for Versace. Maybe the people who wear
00:04:47.160
Versace are in favor of transgenders. Who knows? Very interesting. This week, Newark Airport,
00:04:54.240
New Jersey facing its second total outage in just a week. Systems shutting down for 90 seconds.
00:05:00.980
Radar and comms communications for the pilot to air traffic control tower. The Trump administration
00:05:06.640
has been taking the blame or been getting blamed for every single incident that's happened over
00:05:11.540
the last few months since he's taken office. The plane crash in D.C., of course, was his fault that
00:05:16.520
the female crashed into that passenger American Airlines plane. Of course, Donald Trump's fault.
00:05:21.980
The rest of them, all Donald Trump's fault. But the numbers show that aircraft incidences and
00:05:27.380
crashes are down from the same point where we were last year. But that's besides the fact,
00:05:31.620
because Donald Trump's in office. So we'll just blame him for everything. It's the easy thing to do.
00:05:36.500
But what a lot of people don't realize is the systems that are being used are ancient.
00:05:42.040
Sean Duffy addressed it yesterday on Fox News. Take a listen.
00:05:46.040
The systems were developed when Elvis was a star. Rolling Stones were a star. When Duran Duran was making
00:05:52.680
music. I mean, we go back to the 60s and 70s. We laid out a lot of the infrastructure. It looks like
00:05:57.400
it was from the movie War Games or Apollo 13. It looks like equipment from the movie sets for those
00:06:03.620
movies. It looks like we got the the infrastructure from the Smithsonian. But it's not. It's the equipment
00:06:09.500
that we use in American air traffic control towers. Really, really old. It all has to be brand new,
00:06:14.800
state of the art. And, you know, with regard to air traffic controllers, we're 3,000 controllers short.
00:06:20.440
They didn't stand up to school during covid. And as controllers were retiring, they didn't have a
00:06:26.360
pipeline of new controllers coming in through the academy. So we've done two things. Air traffic
00:06:30.940
controllers who can retire after 25 years of service, we're going to pay them a bonus. We're
00:06:35.520
going to ask them to stay past their retirement date to serve their country. I think we get a lot
00:06:40.820
of controllers to do that. But then we're going to expand the pipeline at our academy in Oklahoma City
00:06:45.840
to get the best and the brightest air traffic controllers through that system and trained up.
00:06:51.900
And then, you know, I think it's going to take us, you know, a year to three years to get fully
00:06:55.640
staffed. Here's an example. I can take one of the most complicated air systems, say, like D.C.,
00:07:01.900
the Potomac TRACON around Washington, D.C., take a controller from there and move them to New York.
00:07:06.880
It takes them a year to get trained up on that airspace. So you just can't move controllers around.
00:07:11.620
They have to be trained in the airspace in which they work. And that takes time. And so
00:07:16.160
we're navigating the mess that was left to us. We're hiring more air traffic controllers.
00:07:20.680
We're fixing the system. But again, it's going to take time.
00:07:24.720
I think he was a little conservative there on that one year transition training period. It's not that
00:07:29.280
long. Just a different airspace for the controllers to learn. Let me explain to you guys what happened,
00:07:35.460
because it's not talked about very often. Back in around 2012, 2013, when I was in aeronautical
00:07:42.420
school, back when President Barack Hussein Obama was president, the FAA decided to get rid of all
00:07:52.060
regulations to become an air traffic controller. So now you had kids who were in school,
00:07:55.960
kids that I went to school with, some of my fraternity brothers, who went to school to be air
00:07:59.800
traffic controllers. And they were told as they were graduating or two years into a degree or three
00:08:03.720
years into a degree, that they no longer needed their college degree. And in fact, they wouldn't
00:08:07.760
be placed in preferential treatment or in front of the line because of already being qualified.
00:08:13.900
They're going to have to get in the line like everybody else because they want to take people
00:08:17.360
from all places, whether you worked at McDonald's or Apple, wherever you worked, everyone was in
00:08:23.680
line. Just like if you were taking a police officer's test, everyone was in line regardless of what
00:08:29.500
your qualifications were. So it was under Barack Hussein Obama that they decided to do it. So think
00:08:33.540
about how many people that dissuaded from going to school to be air traffic controllers because
00:08:37.700
they were told you're just going to get on the line like everyone else. It doesn't matter how
00:08:40.780
qualified you are. It doesn't matter where you went to college. It doesn't matter how well you
00:08:44.100
went to college because we're taking people off the street. So we could thank Barack Hussein Obama
00:08:49.420
for that. It's a thing that a lot of people don't talk about, not covered anywhere in the
00:08:54.660
mainstream media, anywhere in the news. Folks, we have some information also out of New Jersey
00:08:58.960
tonight, not just that air traffic incident. The mayor of Newark, New Jersey, Ross Baraka has been
00:09:04.760
arrested, being charged with committing trespassing, ignoring multiple warnings from
00:09:10.840
Homeland Security investigators to remove himself from an ICE detention center in Newark, New Jersey
00:09:15.180
this afternoon. He has willingly chose to disregard the law that will not be stood for in this state.
00:09:21.620
He has been taken into custody. No one is above the law. That's from Alina Habba, the attorney for New
00:09:28.780
Jersey, the U.S. attorney for New Jersey. Great on Alina. Truth, justice in the American way, folks.
00:09:35.140
They said retribution was coming, but these Democrats do it to themselves. I don't believe that this is
00:09:40.480
retribution by any stretch of the imagination. These Marxist Dems do it to themselves. Folks, today was the
00:09:45.700
first day with the Pope, Pope Leo XIV on the new job, giving a homily to his fellow cardinals,
00:09:53.160
instilling that there's lack of faith in the Catholic Church right now, and that we need to
00:09:59.820
reinstill that into the Catholic Church. Robert Prevost, who's the new Pope, 267th Pope of the Church.
00:10:09.940
So, how did the Catholic Church get to where they were, where they are today, where people are tuned
00:10:16.120
out? Well, I think it has something to do with the last 10 years of Pope Francis allowing
00:10:21.420
transgenders into the Church, drifting away from traditional marriage between a man and a woman,
00:10:28.300
allowing all these woke policies to take over the Vatican, to take over the Catholic Church,
00:10:32.580
deciding they were going to get involved in border situations, immigration crises,
00:10:36.120
everything from A to Z, when the Catholic Church should have just been focused on recruiting,
00:10:43.200
keeping pedophilia out of their churches, and all things regarding the Catholic Church. So,
00:10:49.040
we wish Prevost, Pope Leo, the very best, and we hope that he decides to get the Catholic Church
00:10:55.740
out of politics and get back to where it belongs, preaching the word of the Lord and in faith.
00:11:01.940
Folks, our guest today is our good friend, the host of The Stone Zone, the great Roger Stone.
00:11:08.440
There's so much to talk about in the times of today, the political climate we're in,
00:11:12.780
and all that's going on. Our weekly guest, the great Roger Stone.
00:11:22.380
Roger, as always, it's great to talk to you, especially on a Friday. I want to start with,
00:11:27.140
I'm going to get to this before you can beat me to it. The tariffs are working so well that we've got
00:11:31.560
an American pope now. There's one problem, Roger. You, myself, and 47 are all out of contention,
00:11:40.480
although it is an American. Your thoughts, as we've got a new leader of the Catholic Church,
00:11:46.260
it's not URI. Yeah, I mean, it's a little early to say. He's described as a centrist. He is a registered
00:11:55.140
Republican, but for all we know, he's a Bush Republican. What bothers me, given the previous
00:12:03.400
pope, is when the pope is speaking, not in catheter, they're speaking on matters of public
00:12:10.100
policy, like, for example, making an agreement with the communist Chinese that they should have
00:12:16.440
veto power over who should be the bishops in China, or criticizing Donald Trump's policies
00:12:23.520
on illegal immigrants. Well, I think the pope needs to mind his own business. These are not matters
00:12:30.120
for him. These are not pastoral, spiritual matters. And in the case of Pope Francis, he was not only
00:12:38.800
wrong, but his views were repugnant. Coddling up to communism, bringing those accused of pedophilia,
00:12:47.360
like Bishop Cardinal McCarrick, backed into the Vatican as a key advisor, just picking up a few of
00:12:55.420
the criticisms. So I think this pope will do great. Stay out of American politics. Why don't you speak
00:13:01.640
to spiritual matters? Otherwise, we're really not interested in your views on illegal immigrants.
00:13:07.960
You know, the funny, the funny thing, Roger, was during the whole gay marriage fight and Roe v. Wade,
00:13:13.980
there was everyone's talking about the separation between church and state. But when it came time to
00:13:19.720
talking about American borders, when it came time to talking about American domestic policy, when it
00:13:25.160
came time to talking about anything that had to do with America and us keeping the land sovereign,
00:13:35.740
Yeah, if it weren't for double standards, liberals would have no standards at all.
00:13:41.460
Hypocrisy is throughout their entire view. So I actually saw somebody on News Network the other day
00:13:49.920
whining about Donald Trump weaponizing the judiciary. Franklin Roosevelt used the IRS to harass his
00:13:59.140
political opponents. Jack and Bobby Kennedy were famous for it. Richard Nixon lost the presidency in
00:14:06.560
1960 by a hair. It's funny, John. He had a random IRS audit in 1961, 1962, and 1963. It didn't stop until
00:14:17.080
Kennedy was brutally murdered. And of course, we know how Barack Obama utilized the IRS to harass his
00:14:25.880
political opponents, non-profits that might criticize his policies. And then you have the
00:14:32.520
Russian collusion hoax, the greatest single dirty trick in American history, in which the president
00:14:39.380
and the vice president, the FBI director, the CIA director engaged in treason, used two pieces of
00:14:46.360
completely fraudulent evidence, the so-called Steele dossier, which they knew all the way back to the
00:14:53.340
time that corrupt prosecutor Andrew Weissman was the general counsel of the FBI was a fraud.
00:15:00.080
And the false claim that the Russians hacked the DNC, of which there is not an iota of evidence,
00:15:07.200
because it didn't happen, to try to remove a duly elected president. Yet these people have the audacity
00:15:13.860
to whine about Trump weaponizing the judiciary against his political enemies. I'd tell you the
00:15:23.540
name of the guy on News Network who said it, but he was such a lightweight, such a non-entity,
00:15:31.600
Sounds like Trump in the interview last week. He said, I picked you on CBS because I've never even
00:15:36.360
heard of you before. Anyone who disputes what you'd said about Seth Rich and the DNC and WikiLeaks
00:15:42.280
in Russia, it's very simple. Tell Pam Bondi and Cash Patel to finally give us that laptop that we've
00:15:48.900
been waiting for for years, that a judge in Texas gave permission to attorney Ty Clevenger to turn over
00:15:55.500
that years later we still do not have. Roger, why, real quickly, why would Cash Patel and Pam Bondi
00:16:03.380
be in favor of protecting Seth Rich, his family, anything like that? Fox News paid out millions
00:16:09.300
of dollars in a lawsuit over Seth Rich, yet we still can't get this guy's laptop after a court,
00:16:15.840
which the Democrats now all of a sudden are in favor of courts, right, and law and order,
00:16:23.580
It is exceedingly perplexing. It's very, very hard to understand why nothing has been done
00:16:31.980
to address the greatest single abusive power in American political history. It is, on one hand,
00:16:42.360
it's unfortunate that Ed Martin, who I do think has the courage and the integrity to pursue these
00:16:50.140
matters, will not be able to do so as the U.S. Attorney for D.C., but he will be able to do so
00:16:57.300
as the Associate Attorney General of the United States. And it's interesting, Tom Tillis, the soon
00:17:04.520
to be former senator from North Carolina, said that he could support Martin for another job at the
00:17:13.800
Justice Department. He just couldn't support him to be U.S. Attorney in D.C. because of Martin's view
00:17:21.060
that the January 6th fiasco was a setup, which, of course, it was. Now, this is vitally important.
00:17:30.840
If Donald Trump does not demonstrate to every senator that he will take a scalp for those who
00:17:36.440
betray him, then they will all feel it's open season. You can cross the most popular Republican
00:17:41.560
president in our time. Tillis must be challenged. He must be taken out of public office. It's interesting,
00:17:48.000
he has a Letitia James type problems regarding his personal mortgages. I think I see crimes there and
00:17:57.740
I'm not even an experienced mortgage investigator, but there's multiple crimes there. Crimes that,
00:18:04.060
John, if you or I had signed these documents, these fraudulent documents, we'd be prosecuted like
00:18:10.700
I think Letitia James, the New York's Attorney General, is going to and like Senator Tillis should
00:18:16.040
be prosecuted. Can you tell us, because I briefly saw that this morning about what's going on with
00:18:21.060
Tillis. Obviously, yesterday reports that Big Tish is under federal investigation now by the FBI
00:18:28.940
office in North Albany, although it's not clear why it wouldn't be in Virginia as well, because there's
00:18:33.780
a mortgage that was taken out in 2023 in Virginia in which she said she lived down there. I'm not taking
00:18:38.840
credit for this by any means, Roger. I don't do that. But what's going on with Tillis that he's now
00:18:47.140
seems to be in the same racket that she's doing? Well, let's address the Letitia James matter first.
00:18:53.800
I mean, for all we know, there are investigations in Virginia. A source told me yesterday that there's
00:19:00.320
actually already a grand jury impaneled in Virginia. There were clearly crimes that were committed in
00:19:07.820
Virginia. The left hates this idea that you might actually go to a court where the judge isn't in the
00:19:14.540
tank and the jury isn't rigged. How about that? Boy, that'd be different. She has serious problems.
00:19:21.480
If you want any further proof, she's hired Abby Lowell, considered by many to be the worst attorney
00:19:27.280
in America. He did a great job for Hunter Biden. This guy will sign his name to anything. This could
00:19:34.220
be actually the public scandal in which he finally gets disbarred once and for all. But this idea
00:19:44.280
that he would write to the Justice Department preemptively with a series of falsehoods. No,
00:19:51.320
there is no application for a mortgage in which she did not say she was going to owner-occupy the
00:20:01.320
property she was buying in Virginia, which is the only way she qualified for the mortgage rate
00:20:06.600
that she got. That's what's called a lie. The New York Times just writes it like it's a fact. Okay,
00:20:12.680
New York Times, show us that notarized application. It doesn't exist. The application that does
00:20:21.260
exist. And by the way, this is only signed after the mortgage has been approved. It's the
00:20:26.020
final step before closing. Letitia James very clearly says that she and her niece will occupy
00:20:33.760
the property in Virginia as their principal residence, thus making her ineligible to be
00:20:41.640
the Attorney General of New York. So that means one of two things are true. She either moved to
00:20:48.840
Virginia, which she is ineligible and that office is vacant today, or she lied under oath on that
00:20:55.420
document. It's really that simple. But yeah, you're right, John, a Virginia grand jury could probe
00:21:02.160
that matter. I suspect at this point, she's probably under investigation in multiple jurisdictions,
00:21:08.860
because according to the fact pattern and all of these documents, by the way, all of which are
00:21:15.220
public, you can go to whitecollarfraud.com and read it for yourself. It's not conjecture. These
00:21:22.920
are not theories. It's all laid out there by a very interesting investigative researcher by the name of
00:21:30.280
Sam Antar. I invite folks to check it out on their own. Yeah, I actually spoke to Sam yesterday. He's
00:21:36.060
going to be on the show next week. Thank you for that connection. Rogers, by the way,
00:21:40.620
like the number one booker for this show. I can't tell you how many people Roger makes come on this
00:21:45.660
show. So we appreciate Roger, as always, for that. Tish James was on MSNBC last night. I'm not even
00:21:51.060
going to play the clip because Lou used to say, don't carry the water for these Marxist Dems. And
00:21:55.180
she's one of them. I refuse to do it. But she's on MSNBC yesterday, Roger, and she's telling
00:21:59.320
another no-name host, we were ready on day one to file lawsuits against this administration.
00:22:05.560
You would think, Roger, that there comes a certain point, we all, all of us, maybe with
00:22:10.620
the exception of you and I, because we're hard-headed, hit a certain point, Roger, where
00:22:14.840
we know we're so screwed that we just shut our mouths. This idiot just keeps rambling and
00:22:20.540
rambling and rambling. She's got to know that she's down bad right now, but she's not. She's
00:22:25.900
at a town hall yesterday, and finally Republicans are waking up and using the playbook of the Dems,
00:22:30.520
and we get a heckler up there who tells us she needs to apologize to Donald Trump. Let's
00:22:35.340
wrap up with the Tish James topic. Do you think we get an indictment in the next six months?
00:22:42.120
Well, John, here's the point, I guess, and that is her vulnerabilities are not just limited
00:22:47.860
to serial mortgage fraud. There are at least three women who were sexually harassed by her
00:22:57.540
chief of staff. She knew about it. One of them filed a lawsuit. She went to the appeals court,
00:23:04.820
all Democrats. They let the lawsuit go forward, but they dismissed the charges against Tish. Those
00:23:12.700
charges will end up being reinstated. The other two women, I think, will also bring lawsuits.
00:23:20.900
There's a fourth woman who claims that Letitia James herself assaulted her. That woman has now
00:23:28.180
passed two polygraph tests. Wow. I suspect that she has much larger problems. Now, correct me if I'm
00:23:35.940
wrong, but aren't those the issues under which she removed Andrew Cuomo? Sexual harassment?
00:23:41.800
Well, you've got one out of two, right, Roger? The second issue is the issue she tried to remove
00:23:48.480
Donald Trump under. So it literally goes to the saying, Roger, do not throw stones when you live
00:23:54.380
in Glass House. And Big Tish was living in this big glass house. Now, it seems to me like it's an
00:23:59.560
insecurity to her that, you know, you deflect and throw the rocks and duck for cover. But she's
00:24:05.120
not exactly a small person to miss. So I want to turn to another Marxist demo Capitol Hill yesterday.
00:24:11.260
One final point we have to make is, I'm sure you saw this. So the Democrats in the New York State
00:24:16.800
legislature have decided that Big Tish shouldn't have to pay the legal fees to fight over all these
00:24:23.080
things that she did on a personal level. These aren't state mortgages that she did that she
00:24:27.720
fraudulently dealt with. These are personal mortgages. And but they have now passing legislation
00:24:36.520
so that the state taxpayers pick up the bill for her legal fees because Abby Lowell may be
00:24:42.960
incompetent, but he's very expensive and corrupt as hell. Another Marxist Demme, Ohio Congresswoman,
00:24:49.920
Joyce Betty, was on Capitol Hill this week with Scott Besson. That poor man sat before a committee
00:24:55.200
where they had to testify about the budget coming forward. And she was asked about Harriet Tubman
00:24:59.720
going on the U.S. currency. Scott Besson didn't know the answer to the question. He's a single person,
00:25:04.820
doesn't know the answer to everything. He said, I'll get back to you. I don't know what the hell
00:25:08.780
they're putting in the water there, Roger. But this woman went absolutely berserk. Let's take a
00:25:12.680
listen to what exactly is going on on Capitol Hill right now, because these Marxists are in shambles.
00:25:18.160
In 2016, former Secretary Jack Lew announced that Harriet Tubman was to be the new face
00:25:23.340
of the $20 bill. Can you tell me what's the current status of this project?
00:25:30.740
No, ma'am, I can't. But my staff will get back to you.
00:25:33.980
No, I want you to get back to me. Because, see, there seems to be an issue when it comes
00:25:38.860
to things that affect people of color or people who live in poverty, whether it is what you're
00:25:45.060
doing with Social Security, what you are doing with restricting funds, the program.
00:25:56.700
I'm not a staff person. I'm not asking him to have his staff report to me. So, Mr. Chairman,
00:26:03.640
I'm addressing it to you to ask him to respect me. Mr. Chairman, I'm talking to you. I need him
00:26:10.660
to address if he will answer me. No, I'm not going to do it. I'm not going to stop until you direct him
00:26:18.900
The gentlewoman's time has expired. The gentlewoman's time has expired. The gentlewoman
00:26:23.920
has offered that she can submit questions for the record. Mr. Chairman, point of order
00:26:26.820
to you. I will not stop. I will not be silenced until you direct him to answer.
00:26:30.100
The gentlewoman is not offering an appropriate parliamentary inquiry. Does the gentlewoman
00:26:38.640
As a member of the United States Congress addressing the secretary, I am asking you to
00:26:45.240
rule on asking this hostile witness to direct his response to me versus having him tell me
00:26:53.780
that his staff will respond to me. My staff person didn't.
00:27:01.440
In all honesty, had I been the chairman, had I been the chairman, I would have had the sergeant
00:27:05.680
of arms, remove her, quite simply, which he has the authority to do. He asked her nicely
00:27:11.200
four times to stop. Her time was over. But she's grandstanding because she's got to get reelected.
00:27:17.840
And she somehow thought that this was going to help her do that. It's a good thing for her
00:27:23.360
that there is no IQ test involved as a requirement to be a member of Congress. That's just political
00:27:31.040
grandstanding. The congresswoman's from a district in which I'm sure that about 80 percent of her
00:27:38.400
constituencies look and sound like her. That's why she gets elected and reelected. And maybe that clip
00:27:45.200
will get her reelected. But in the greater scheme of things, that kind of behavior, you know, doesn't
00:27:53.040
It's crazy how far we've stooped down. It started with AOC and we thought that was bad.
00:27:57.660
Had this piece of garbage from the Bronx. And then we went to Jasmine Crockett, who's got no
00:28:04.020
respect for the rule of law or any human being who's not of her skin color. And now we've got
00:28:09.460
this woman. It seems that you'd mentioned an IQ test. It seems that there's not a person walking
00:28:14.560
in that place as a Democrat who's got over 100 IQ. It's it's truly embarrassing. They want to talk
00:28:21.340
about Donald Trump being an embarrassment on the world stage. These people are embarrassments,
00:28:25.100
Roger. I don't understand how they get and how the constituents go and vote for them.
00:28:29.820
What does it tell you about someone who's going to vote for something like that?
00:28:34.360
Well, as you know, John, part of the problem in the country is that about 80 percent of the
00:28:39.660
districts are either solidly Republican or solidly Democrat. There is no political opportunity,
00:28:47.640
not only for the other party. There's also not even any opportunity for insurgents within the
00:28:53.780
parties. So you get stuck with members of Congress like that. You saw Maxine Waters off to the left.
00:29:01.560
You see, she can use her authority to pressure a bank to bail out her husband and the Justice
00:29:09.840
Department won't come knocking on her door. But if Donald Trump spits on the sidewalk, well,
00:29:15.560
Letitia James is right there with the handcuffs. It's a two tiered justice system and it has to end.
00:29:21.560
Speaking of spitting, I don't know if you saw the video yesterday of Ed Martin, the acting
00:29:25.920
U.S. attorney for D.C. right now. Someone walks by him and hocks a loogie right on this guy's coat.
00:29:31.940
I mean, this is the intolerant left, Roger. These are the same people who said that Republicans,
00:29:36.560
you and I tried to overthrow the Capitol. Mark Wayne Mullen, another one who I can't leave his name
00:29:43.900
out. You know, comforting Michael Bursey shot down Ashley Babbitt, now holier than thou,
00:29:50.540
biggest Republican in the Senate because he's up for reelection in 2026. But these are the same
00:29:55.760
people, Roger, who said you guys tried to destroy our country. You tried to, Tom Tillis, another one
00:30:01.780
that we ruined democracy on that day. Right. As we watch security guards and Capitol police officers
00:30:07.420
open doors for people and welcome them through the hallways of Congress. Yet where they're the
00:30:12.840
where the intolerant ones and they're holier than thou allowed to go and spit on people.
00:30:18.540
Yeah. Fortunately, Ed Martin was wearing a raincoat. By the way, Senator Tillis actually told someone I
00:30:25.380
know that Ashley Babbitt had it coming. Oh, that needs to that needs to be in a 30 second TV commercial
00:30:32.200
in North Carolina so we can be rid of this rhino piece of crap as soon as humanly possible.
00:30:44.780
Let's talk about another piece of human debris over in the Senate. Bernie Sanders, he was on Fox
00:30:50.740
News the other day with Brett Baer, who is not a journalist by any stretch of the imagination. He's
00:30:55.060
not a Republican. Anyone who watches him, do not be fooled. Let's take a listen. You know, Alyssa Slotkin,
00:30:59.500
senator from Michigan, she said you shouldn't be using oligarch. It's over people's head.
00:31:04.240
You've gotten criticized from other people. Free Beacon says Bernie Sanders spent $221,000 on private
00:31:09.920
jets fighting the oligarchy tour paid for by friends of Bernie Sanders. That you've spent millions of
00:31:16.140
dollars in campaign funds on private jet travel over the years. How do you push back on both of
00:31:21.400
those things? When's the last time you saw Donald Trump during a campaign mode at National Airport?
00:31:26.840
No, no, no. It doesn't. But he's also not fighting the oligarchy.
00:31:30.920
No. When you run a campaign and you do three or four or five rallies in a week, the only way you
00:31:36.720
can get around to talk to 30,000 people. Think I'm going to be sitting on a waiting line at United
00:31:41.200
waiting, you know, while 30,000 people are waiting? That's the only way you can get around. No
00:31:45.340
apologies for that. That's what campaign travel is about. We've done it in the past. We're going to do
00:31:49.620
it in the future. And you think that this is hitting a mark? You think it's scratching the
00:31:54.760
itch that voters want to hear from? I think at a time when the people on top are doing phenomenally
00:31:59.700
well, when seniors, working class people are struggling, people want to hear action to stand
00:32:06.020
up to the people who have the wealth and the power and create an economy that works for all of us,
00:32:10.080
not just the. Unapologetic, Roger, oligarchs. They said that don't use oligarchs because the
00:32:16.720
Democratic base is too dumb to understand what that word means. Two hundred twenty one thousand
00:32:20.800
dollars spent in these things. There's one difference. He mentions Trump flying on his
00:32:26.160
private jet. First of all, in 2016, Roger, Trump started his campaign self-funding. OK,
00:32:30.680
flew around on his own dime on his private jet. Number one, Trump is a billionaire. He's never
00:32:35.420
denied. As a matter of fact, he you know, he wants to be as rich as possible and he tells you he
00:32:39.540
let's be as rich as possible. He's never denied that. This man is another one in a glass house.
00:32:43.800
But Bret Baier, of course, doesn't press him on the issues because he's not a real journalist.
00:32:48.460
Well, a couple of problems. First of all, big difference between Bernie Sanders and Donald
00:32:52.920
Trump. Bernie Sanders is running around constantly talking about climate change
00:32:56.800
and the carbon footprint. But it's OK for him to fly in a private jet. Second of all,
00:33:02.880
Bernie and his wife skimmed millions of dollars in media placement commissions from his two
00:33:09.320
presidential campaigns. So he is a millionaire. He is the rich person he's talking about. The man
00:33:15.540
is a honking pain in the ass. He's a loud mouth and he's a hypocrite. So it's why shouldn't he wait
00:33:22.180
online at the airport like working people? He's right. He's too important. That means never had a job
00:33:28.540
that wasn't on the public payroll. He's just a complete hypocrite. I mean, if you care so much
00:33:35.420
about the carbon footprint, why are you taking all these private jets? It's it really is a joke.
00:33:41.800
He is a joke. He's the face of the Democrat Party. Wow. Yeah, it's remarkable. I want to turn to some
00:33:49.460
foreign policy before we wrap up here, Roger. And I always appreciate you joining us. It's always an
00:33:54.520
insightful, fun conversation. Donald Trump is supposed to be heading over to the Middle East in the coming
00:34:00.360
weeks, meeting with some nations, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Israel, not on one of them. I was reading
00:34:06.600
on Twitter this morning from a journalist who spoke to a general who was at Mar-a-Lago yesterday.
00:34:15.000
Quote, he said that AIPAC is getting shut out of the Trump administration. He confirmed that Waltz was
00:34:19.780
trying to undermine Trump by working with Netanyahu. And he said he's hopeful that the U.S. will decouple
00:34:24.200
from Assad and MI6. Now, this is now the third or fourth report that I've heard that Mike Waltz
00:34:30.440
was reportedly fired. Now, people are saying he was fired. He wasn't fired. Initially, he was fired
00:34:36.400
and then rehired. I'm not sure what the entire terminology is. I heard Laura Loomer got him fired.
00:34:42.440
I don't know if that's true or not. But working behind the scenes with Netanyahu, do you know
00:34:48.140
anything about this? I do. I've heard those same reports, but I've also heard them contradicted.
00:34:54.280
So, in all honesty, I'm uncertain. Isn't this the president who moved the capital of Israel?
00:35:01.600
As I recall, I don't think that Israel has ever had a better friend in the White House.
00:35:08.100
On the other hand, I agree with Tucker Carlson. American foreign policy put America first,
00:35:14.420
not Israel first, but America first. Yes, Israel is a trusted ally, but so are the Saudis,
00:35:20.780
in all honesty. So, an even-handed approach to the Middle East makes sense. I think that's what
00:35:25.720
President Trump is pursuing. There's an alternative. First of all, Mike Waltz wasn't fired. He was sent
00:35:33.740
to the United Nations, which isn't too shabby a job, in all honesty. And secondarily, there were
00:35:40.960
additional reports that Waltz may have been given this lateral transfer because the president
00:35:48.660
was unhappy with him over some conversation pertaining to Russia. That's another unconfirmed
00:35:55.160
report. Yet, another report might be based on his involvement in whole signal gate. One thing you're
00:36:05.240
doing about Donald Trump, sometimes he doesn't move immediately because he hates to make it look
00:36:11.660
like he's been pushed or forced into doing something. But it's conceivable that Waltz's
00:36:16.080
number was up after the whole signal gate thing. He was, after all, the guy who either inadvertently,
00:36:22.740
I believe, or inadvertently, unlikely, added Jeffrey Goldberg, the non-journalist over at the Atlantic,
00:36:29.600
to the thread. So it's possible that Waltz was going to get this lateral transfer that way back
00:36:38.600
then. Again, this is a parlor game in Washington. But anyway, you look at it, Waltz is still in an
00:36:46.660
important position in the administration. The real question is, who will be the next national security
00:36:53.900
advisor? If that person is not a neocon, as Mike Waltz was, at least prior to joining this
00:37:02.300
administration, that would be a very, very good sign. Yeah. Like you said, it's very unclear.
00:37:08.860
The way I look at it, Roger, is we shouldn't be fighting anybody's wars. We shouldn't have American
00:37:13.400
troops on the ground anywhere. We shouldn't be using anything. Fighting a proxy war with Iran,
00:37:18.800
I mean, is the dumbest thing to do right now when Donald Trump's trying to handle it diplomatically.
00:37:23.940
And the reports are that Israel wanted America to bomb the heck out of them, which I don't think,
00:37:29.520
you know, five years ago, Roger, 10 years ago, I would have said, that sounds like a terrific idea.
00:37:34.820
But I think Donald Trump has really opened a lot of our eyes to realize that it's not necessarily
00:37:40.240
always the greatest thing. We look at what we've done to Afghanistan. We create these funnels.
00:37:44.880
We look at what we did to Iraq. We look at what we did to Syria. You go in these places. Yeah,
00:37:49.720
you blow the hell out of them and you maybe get the job done. But the end result isn't necessarily
00:37:55.200
something that you want. Look, Trump was elected as a peace candidate. He was elected to bring peace
00:38:02.680
both in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. He was elected to bring peace in the Middle East.
00:38:08.900
I think that's what he's going to do. I agree with you, Tucker Carlson and others, that a unilateral
00:38:16.340
attack on Iran right now would in the end be counterproductive. And I'm opposed to that.
00:38:22.280
I think the president views it only as a last resort. He's a smart enough negotiator that he
00:38:27.520
never takes anything off the table. One of the things I remember he would complain about
00:38:32.480
before running for president was the way our leaders kept negotiating in public. You don't
00:38:38.320
negotiate in public. You don't tell your adversaries what you will and will not do. You need to keep
00:38:44.000
them guessing. The unpredictability of Donald Trump is one of his greatest assets on the world stage.
00:38:51.500
Do you think that the Chinese, for example, would be highly confident that if they tried to grab
00:38:57.240
Taiwan, that Trump would do nothing? I don't think so. They knew that had they tried it under Joe Biden,
00:39:02.660
they would have gotten a strong letter of protest. That's about it. But whether it is whether it is
00:39:09.440
the Ukrainians, pardon me, the Russians, who I don't think ever would have invaded Ukraine had Trump
00:39:16.060
been in the White House or the Chinese who still have designs on Taiwan, Trump's unpredictability
00:39:22.380
on the world stage is a great, great asset. Negotiating in public, Roger, is like the health
00:39:28.460
department telling you they're coming to your restaurant at 10 p.m. tomorrow, 10 a.m. tomorrow
00:39:33.000
to give you your health inspection, clean out all the rats, make sure the food temperatures are good,
00:39:37.520
and make sure everyone's wearing gloves in the kitchen. Tulsi Gabbard is one of your most sought
00:39:43.920
after people. I mean, you've been high on her from the beginning, and I think rightfully so. She's one of
00:39:48.920
the very few people in that cabinet, I think, who's really got her eye on the ball right now
00:39:53.440
as it sits. There's a few of them, but then there's ones who are kind of a little bit lost
00:39:57.780
right now running around with no heads, like chickens. Confirming yesterday that she's actively
00:40:02.540
pursuing 11 separate internal investigations into classified intelligence leaks meant to sabotage the
00:40:07.660
Trump administration from within. This is something we didn't have in 2016, Roger. We had Alexander
00:40:12.800
Vindman running around, his brother running around, all these people. Your thoughts on Tulsi?
00:40:17.360
I think she's doing great. She's the one cabinet member of which there's been no controversy
00:40:25.420
whatsoever in terms of the job that she's doing. I think she's doing her very best to ensure
00:40:30.780
that in the end we release everything regarding the John Kennedy assassination, the Robert Kennedy
00:40:37.760
assassination, and the assassination of Dr. King. That job is not finished, in my opinion. We could do a
00:40:44.720
whole show on that. But I think she's very serious about these leaks, some of whom are obviously deep
00:40:54.460
within our own administration. So, look, I think that she is a thoroughbred. I think she's got a great
00:41:00.280
political future. I've predicted it on this show and elsewhere. I still believe she will be your first
00:41:06.740
woman president. Maybe not in 2028, maybe in 2028, but maybe not in 2028. But she has it. It is that rare
00:41:15.740
combination of devout commitment to principle, as well as great communication skills and charisma.
00:41:25.480
Yeah. And you see that only once, you know, every every set, every several decades. Reagan had it,
00:41:33.840
for example. Trump has it. She has it. Yep. You often hear and I get a lot of heat for this on the
00:41:40.340
show, but it's just the truth of the matter, Roger. And as you, a longtime political strategist, one of
00:41:44.800
the most brilliant out there, everyone's saying J.D. Vance will do eight years. And then this person
00:41:49.220
will they remember what we what everyone was saying back in 2016. It will be Trump for eight
00:41:54.240
years and then Pence will come in. And then we found out Pence was not exactly a good man.
00:41:58.580
We all just need to sort. I'm not saying I don't like J.D. Vance. I like J.D. Vance. I think he's
00:42:02.380
doing a terrific job. I think he needs to buy pants that are a little bit longer to cover his socks. But
00:42:07.200
I do like the man. I think he's doing a terrific job very honorably. And he's a very smart man. But
00:42:12.320
let's hold out reserve judgment. Marco Rubio is also doing a hell of a job who I think has come
00:42:17.520
such a long way that I'm I'm so happy for the man, because from 2016 to now, the man has come
00:42:23.220
such a long way, Roger. Well, the president, I think, said this himself in that meet the press
00:42:29.460
interview. Yes, it's true that in our party, a sitting vice president has a great leg up in J.D.
00:42:36.580
Vance is doing a great job. He would certainly be the front runner. But I think you're going to have a
00:42:42.800
you're still going to have a large field in 2028. The president has finally put this idea that
00:42:49.620
he's interested in running for reelection to bed. It was a great troll. But even the president
00:42:55.400
understands it's constitutionally not permittable. Yeah. And competition in the party is a healthy
00:43:01.060
thing. Besides that, whoever does win this nomination is going to need a vice presidential
00:43:05.180
nominee. So I don't I think there's a there has to be a presumption, particularly in the Republican
00:43:11.420
Party for a sitting vice president. We have a great respect for hegemony. We we nominated George
00:43:18.300
Bush after eight years of Ronald Reagan. We nominated Richard Nixon after eight eyes, years,
00:43:23.500
years under Dwight Eisenhower. But in the television age and with Donald Trump becoming president,
00:43:30.400
which kind of changed all the rules, because before Trump was president, all of our presidents
00:43:35.860
were either governors, senators, congressmen or generals. It's the first business person we've
00:43:41.640
had as president. So, look, the president said it best. Let's have a great four years. We'll let
00:43:46.820
the future take care of itself. Right. And we may have an outsider on someone like perhaps Tucker
00:43:53.120
Carlson. You never know what's coming. Folks, before we wrap up, you guys all get to see Roger
00:43:57.120
Stone here as a very serious political operative. But Roger's got a fun side to him as well.
00:44:01.600
I want to share this video. I want to share this video of Roger.
00:44:20.720
Hey, Roger, I need I need some moves like that. We got down in Florida. We need to set up a session
00:44:30.360
because those are pretty impressive moves. Well, you know, I can still shake a tail feather.
00:44:36.220
What can I say? Roger, you got the last word here as we wrap up, brother.
00:44:40.460
Look, John, I'm just as optimistic as I was just months ago that America is on the brink,
00:44:47.420
on the verge of an unprecedented golden age, an age of peace, prosperity, security, justice
00:44:54.360
and law and order. God bless you, John. Have a great weekend.
00:45:00.360
Thank you. Thanks to Roger Stone, folks. And thank you all for being with us here on the
00:45:04.100
Great America Show. We hope you enjoy our conversation. I get so much feedback on having
00:45:09.340
Roger on and Roger had asked me maybe a year ago. He said, you know, let's let's do a segment
00:45:14.360
every week. And I said, you know, I don't really have people on every single week, but let's do it.
00:45:18.220
And, you know, it's been a great joy and a great deal of fun. And it's informational. I mean,
00:45:23.960
Roger is a brain that if anyone had the opportunity to pick, you absolutely should. He's been around
00:45:29.260
everywhere. He's seen absolutely everything in the political sphere. So we always appreciate
00:45:34.500
his insights. And we'll be seeing him again in Florida next week. Maybe we'll have a new story
00:45:40.520
to break for you. Last time we were down in Florida, Roger, we broke the Tish James mortgage fraud.
00:45:44.480
So we'll see what Roger's got cooking up for us next week, folks. We hope to see you back here
00:45:48.620
on Monday for the Great America Show, where our quest for truth, justice and the American way
00:45:53.120
continues. See you back here Monday, folks. But until then, may God bless you. May God bless America
00:45:58.540
and may God bless the great Lou Dobbs, folks. Have a great weekend. We'll see you Monday.
