Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Great America Show.
00:00:05.060 It's great to have you with us on this beautiful day.
00:00:07.540 Thanks so much for spending part of your day with us.
00:00:09.620 It's now been a few weeks since the whole gerrymandering fight, or what the Democrats
00:00:13.420 are calling gerrymandering fight, in Texas for their redistricting map, having a very
00:00:18.640 hard time being able to fathom with it.
00:00:21.160 Vice President J.D. Vance was on, I guess it's MSNBC or MSNOW, whatever you want to
00:00:26.460 call it.
00:00:27.580 Um, their rebranding efforts not going too well, but the Democrats nonetheless going
00:00:34.540 absolutely berserk about this, what they're calling gerrymandering.
00:00:37.380 It's not gerrymandering, it's redistricting, because the Democrats have allowed illegals
00:00:42.720 to be counted in census.
00:00:45.040 That's clearly going to be a breach of issues, a breach of the Constitution, because illegals
00:00:51.240 aren't allowed to vote in this country.
00:00:52.860 So J.D. Vance was on with MSNBC, or MSNOW, whatever you want to call it, BSNOW, I think
00:00:59.700 is probably the most prevalent way to say it about them, and was asked about what they're
00:01:05.660 calling gerrymandering.
00:01:06.680 Take a listen.
00:01:07.380 We had way fewer House seats than we should have, one, if the Democrats hadn't aggressively
00:01:11.820 gerrymandered, and two, if illegal aliens weren't counted in the census for purposes of
00:01:16.620 apportioning congressional seats.
00:01:17.900 The best estimates I've seen is that in California, for example, has five additional congressional
00:01:23.440 seats than it should have, because they count illegal aliens for the purpose of apportioning
00:01:28.580 representatives.
00:01:29.080 Meanwhile, Ohio, my home state, lost a representative.
00:01:32.440 We're literally losing representatives for American citizens in order to give congressional representation
00:01:37.400 to illegal aliens.
00:01:38.800 Republicans are trying to balance out the scales a little bit for basic fairness and for the
00:01:43.760 integrity of our democracy, which the president cares about as much as anybody in the country.
00:01:48.420 I mean, it makes sense, right?
00:01:50.880 California has been stealing seats for as long as we could remember.
00:01:54.940 Maryland redistricted and did some crazy, crazy, crazy stuff over there.
00:02:00.660 Ohio's lost congressional seats.
00:02:02.940 You look up and down the list, these Democrats have been doing this for years.
00:02:05.880 So now the Republicans finally want to get a brain, get smart, and do it the legitimate way.
00:02:10.960 Now, the Democrats, how they've done it has been the furthest thing from legitimate.
00:02:14.540 You look at how some of these maps are drawn, and I mean, they're drawn in the most obscure way
00:02:20.820 possible with the gerrymandering.
00:02:24.900 So the Republicans have decided they're going to do it the legitimate way, and that's exactly
00:02:28.860 what they're doing.
00:02:30.020 So we'll see how it plays out, but it's not going to be good for the Marxist Democrats.
00:02:37.620 J.D. Vance was also asked by the radical Dems over on MSNOW or MSDNC or BSNOW, like I said,
00:02:45.020 whatever you want to call it, whatever's easiest for you.
00:02:47.960 He was asked about what message it is sending to the country to have the National Guard
00:02:54.440 and the federalization in Washington, D.C., which, by the way, now looks like it's going
00:02:59.640 to be heading to Chicago and New York following the suit, because these states, these cities
00:03:04.900 can't simply get their things under control.
00:03:08.060 Crime is out of control.
00:03:09.840 It's running rampant.
00:03:11.340 And Donald Trump feels the need to protect all Americans, to keep all Americans safe.
00:03:15.880 Take a listen to J.D. Vance when asked about it.
00:03:17.720 We don't have to live like this.
00:03:19.440 My message to my fellow citizens here in D.C. or all across the country would be that
00:03:24.520 allowing vagrants and armed robberies to take over your city, that's a policy choice.
00:03:30.280 What President Trump is showing is that if you just empower local law enforcement to
00:03:34.320 arrest and prosecute the bad guys, we can take back American streets.
00:03:38.140 You, as a young family, whatever the color of your skin, you should not have to cross the
00:03:42.300 street because there's a crazy person yelling at your children on the other side.
00:03:46.040 You should not be worried that if you take your son out for a meal at eight o'clock in
00:03:50.380 the evening, an armed robber is going to assault your family.
00:03:54.360 This is a policy choice to allow lawlessness to overrun our cities.
00:03:59.220 The president has made a different policy choice.
00:04:01.560 And I think what he's showing the entire American community is that we don't have to
00:04:05.640 live like this.
00:04:06.240 And that's the biggest thing that will come out of D.C.
00:04:08.400 It matters a lot for D.C., but I think it matters more for the whole country to see that
00:04:13.080 if we just make better choices, we can take back our cities.
00:04:16.660 Why should America have to live like this?
00:04:19.020 And as I've said, the Calvary is coming.
00:04:21.060 1,700 National Guardsmen from 19 states are mobilizing to help President Trump also with
00:04:27.240 this stop illegal migration and crime across it.
00:04:31.140 It's going to be coming to Chicago.
00:04:32.680 It may be very well be coming to Los Angeles.
00:04:35.020 It may very well be coming to New York City.
00:04:37.720 These are some of the places where Donald Trump had floated, is going to see a change.
00:04:42.900 If you can't run your city, if you can't run your state, Donald Trump will do it for you.
00:04:48.580 I say this every day here on this show.
00:04:51.060 Donald Trump is a president for all Americans, not just the people that voted for him, not
00:04:55.340 just the red states that voted for him.
00:04:58.000 He's a president for everybody.
00:04:59.560 And that includes Washington, D.C., where, as I often joke, he maybe got seven total votes
00:05:04.820 in the place because of how Democratic and how many bureaucrats live in that place and
00:05:10.380 how many of them vote in that place.
00:05:13.320 He's a president for all Americans.
00:05:16.260 J.D. Vance was also asked by Kristen Walker on failed MSDNC in that interview about why
00:05:22.380 Donald Trump is being so light and easy on Vladimir Putin.
00:05:26.960 Can you imagine that?
00:05:28.660 These are the same people who, when Donald Trump ends this war between Russia and Ukraine,
00:05:32.640 will make some sort of excuse like this, that Donald Trump is being easy on them.
00:05:37.840 And if he doesn't end the war between them because of their rhetoric like this, they'll
00:05:42.500 say Donald Trump was a con artist.
00:05:44.340 He was B.S.
00:05:45.100 He couldn't end the war like he said he was going to.
00:05:48.260 They speak out both sides of their mouth and nobody holds them accountable.
00:05:51.960 But we do.
00:05:52.520 Take a listen when J.D. was asked about why Donald Trump is being so easy on Vladimir.
00:05:57.160 Where exactly is the pressure on Russia to do anything if you're not right now imposing
00:06:02.940 new sanctions?
00:06:04.080 How do you get them to a place of getting to the table with Zelensky and stopping to drop
00:06:08.660 bombs?
00:06:09.160 But Kristen, I think that question betrays a fundamental misunderstanding of where we are.
00:06:13.200 The president has applied aggressive economic leverage.
00:06:16.380 For example, the secondary tariffs on India to try to make it harder for the Russians to
00:06:21.260 get rich from their oil economy.
00:06:22.900 He's tried to make it clear that Russia can be re-invited into the world economy if they
00:06:28.060 stop the killing.
00:06:29.000 But they're going to continue to be isolated if they don't stop the killing.
00:06:32.220 The president has applied more economic pressure to the Russians to stop this war than Biden
00:06:38.060 did in three years.
00:06:39.180 So the idea that we're not doing anything, we're already doing things right now.
00:06:44.580 And this is how negotiation works.
00:06:46.580 You do something.
00:06:47.640 You talk to the parties.
00:06:48.720 You try to see if there's a meeting of minds.
00:06:51.240 Again, we believe we've already seen some significant concessions from both sides just
00:06:55.620 in the last few weeks.
00:06:56.780 We're going to eventually be successful or we'll hit a brick wall.
00:07:00.400 And if we hit a brick wall, then we're going to continue this process of negotiation, of
00:07:04.280 applying leverage.
00:07:05.520 This is the energetic diplomacy that's going to bring this war to a close.
00:07:08.400 It's so simple.
00:07:11.180 And J.D. Vance, I don't think could have put it any better than he just did.
00:07:16.020 Donald Trump wants to handle this thing as he has, all the way back to 2016, diplomatically.
00:07:22.340 But Welker and MSDNC or MSNOW and CNN and the rest of them will be the same ones criticizing
00:07:29.160 if Donald Trump were to go drop a nuclear weapon on Russia.
00:07:31.960 He's a war hawk.
00:07:33.020 He's a criminal.
00:07:33.900 He's a warmonger.
00:07:34.640 This is what we told you all about him all along.
00:07:38.140 They speak out both sides of their mouths.
00:07:40.980 Nobody holds them accountable.
00:07:43.380 They want peace with Russia and Ukraine, but they don't want Donald Trump to do it diplomatically.
00:07:48.140 So how does he do it?
00:07:49.360 Does he go drop some bombs on Moscow?
00:07:52.340 What's the best way to do it, MSNOW?
00:07:55.260 What's the best way to do it, CNN?
00:07:57.860 And why is nobody holding them accountable?
00:07:59.960 You turn on Fox News, I can guarantee you, and nobody's asking the question, Sean Hannity,
00:08:06.380 Brett Bayer, any of them, why the mainstream media talks out both sides of their mouths
00:08:11.980 and get away with it.
00:08:12.860 Nobody listens to them.
00:08:13.860 Nobody cares to listen to, call them out on it.
00:08:18.000 It's a damn total shame, and I think it's the reason why legacy media is dying.
00:08:23.040 It's the reason why nobody's tuned into them anymore.
00:08:25.540 The Congressional Budget Office, which is supposed to be nonpartisan, but we've seen them be
00:08:30.600 pretty partisan over the course of the last four years, being forced to concede to Donald
00:08:36.560 Trump, just as it seems everyone at some point in their life who's went against this man has
00:08:42.420 had to do, about tariffs.
00:08:45.320 They told us tariffs were going to kill this country.
00:08:47.560 They were going to kill Americans.
00:08:49.060 They were going to hurt Americans.
00:08:50.240 Well, it turns out it's doing quite the opposite, and it may just help America pay off this
00:08:56.960 debt, this national massive trillions and trillions of dollars of debt that we've accumulated over
00:09:03.300 the course of the last quarter century, and then some.
00:09:07.740 Donald Trump forcing them to realize the truth of the matter.
00:09:12.540 Take a listen.
00:09:12.980 I was very happy today, as you saw, the group that does this, a government group, radical
00:09:19.160 left group, announced that Trump was right, took in $4 trillion worth of tariffs, that
00:09:25.800 the $4 trillion are going to reduce the deficit by numbers far greater than they ever expected
00:09:30.340 or heard of.
00:09:31.500 And by the way, the stock market went up 1,000 points.
00:09:34.980 That was as of 10 minutes ago.
00:09:36.480 I can't tell you what happened.
00:09:37.520 A lot of things happened.
00:09:38.400 But the stock market's up almost 1,000 points, and it's basically on the news that the release
00:09:46.400 that just came out from government that the tariffs that everybody was talking about, that
00:09:53.360 the whole world respects us for because of what we did, the tariffs are going to be at
00:09:58.240 $4 trillion.
00:09:59.380 They're going to reduce the deficit by $4 trillion, Mr. Vice President.
00:10:03.940 That's pretty good, sir.
00:10:05.140 Too bad it's not five, right?
00:10:06.460 That's right.
00:10:06.800 But it's had a huge impact, and the stock market is way up.
00:10:11.580 The Marxist Dems cannot be happy about Donald Trump wearing a hat in the Oval Office that
00:10:16.520 says Trump was right about everything.
00:10:18.080 But there's only one issue.
00:10:20.000 You can't tell me one thing he's been wrong about in the last 10 years.
00:10:24.620 I mean, I'm wrong every single day.
00:10:26.440 Not particularly on the show, but about something, about anything.
00:10:29.460 All of us are.
00:10:30.940 But Donald Trump seems to always be, I don't know how he does it, on the right side of history
00:10:35.320 and on the right side of the issues.
00:10:37.820 I guess that's the reason why he's the greatest president of my lifetime and probably most
00:10:41.540 of yours.
00:10:42.100 Folks, we're going to take a quick break here.
00:10:43.480 When we return, we're going to be joined by my good friend and a fan favorite on this
00:10:47.160 show, Russ Tice, former senior NSA intel analyst and whistleblower.
00:10:51.300 We're going to take up so much today.
00:10:52.860 We're going to talk about the gerrymandering.
00:10:54.200 We're going to talk about voting machines.
00:10:56.800 It's another thing you don't hear about in the mainstream media.
00:10:59.460 We're going to talk about that.
00:11:00.540 We're going to talk about Tulsi Gabbard and the great work she's doing at the ODNI, cutting
00:11:04.520 staff by 50%, getting to the root issues of whistleblowers.
00:11:08.860 John Bolton, by the way, in case you guys took off last Friday, like myself, we were doing
00:11:14.940 a little traveling.
00:11:17.300 John Bolton's house was raided by the FBI on Friday.
00:11:19.820 The investigation apparently has something to do with classified documents.
00:11:26.100 That's right.
00:11:26.800 Chris Christie waited in on it.
00:11:27.800 We're going to take all of that up on the other side of this quick break with Russ Tice,
00:11:30.840 folks.
00:11:31.300 Please stay with us.
00:11:32.000 We're coming right back.
00:11:38.740 Thanks, everybody, for staying with us here on The Great America Show.
00:11:41.460 As I said, our guest today is a good friend of the show, a good friend of mine, who's a
00:11:45.260 great friend of the great Lou Dobbs, the great Russ Tice, former NSA intel
00:11:49.800 analyst, senior intel analyst, and whistleblower.
00:11:52.340 Russ, as always, a delight to talk to you.
00:11:55.340 I guess we'll start with first the Marxist mainstream media.
00:11:59.920 Doesn't matter what Donald Trump says, what Donald Trump does, he's wrong.
00:12:05.000 It's apparent to me that they want some sort of confrontation with Russia, whether it be
00:12:11.100 he drop a bomb on Moscow or whatever he does.
00:12:14.480 But it's just never enough.
00:12:17.020 Diplomatically, it's not good enough.
00:12:18.460 But then when he goes to handle things with confrontation, then he's a war hawk.
00:12:23.620 I mean, could this man ever get a break?
00:12:26.880 No, not from the mainstream media.
00:12:28.640 He won't get one, no matter what he does.
00:12:30.420 Somebody put it, if he walks on water, he'll be accused of harming potential fish that swim
00:12:38.340 at the surface.
00:12:39.260 So it doesn't matter what he does.
00:12:42.880 President Trump is putting the squeeze on Russia by limiting their ability to sell their
00:12:49.040 oil and then other products.
00:12:51.860 And, you know, that's ultimately that that puts the pressure on him, especially if it
00:12:58.540 affects their own economy, that he needs to do something.
00:13:01.860 Plus, he's he's killing off his young men, although Russia has, you know, is quite a vast
00:13:08.080 country.
00:13:08.640 But still, you know, you just at some point, your own populace will say, hey, where did my
00:13:14.420 you know, where'd my son go?
00:13:16.160 Where'd my nephew go?
00:13:17.620 You know, what's what's going on here?
00:13:19.240 And so, you know, cutting off India or slapping them and and potentially, you know, down the
00:13:26.820 line, threatening the swift cape of the swift financial capability for the Russians.
00:13:31.280 I think that's the that's the hard the hard slap there.
00:13:34.680 But it's a negotiation.
00:13:36.540 And we know that President Trump wrote the book on negotiating.
00:13:41.380 You know, he's you know, he dealt with all the rough and tumble up there and up in your
00:13:47.400 area there, the woods in New York.
00:13:50.060 And, you know, that's that's a pretty rough area to have to deal with all the facets that
00:13:55.560 you have to do to try to build anything, I imagine, especially Manhattan.
00:13:59.380 So the man knows what he's doing.
00:14:01.820 The man deserves like five Nobel Peace Prizes all over with what he's done in Southeast Asia,
00:14:08.000 Central Asia, you know, peace with Armenia and Azerbaijan and the ties of Thailand and
00:14:17.100 and Cambodia and Africa, Central Africa.
00:14:21.600 So, you know, like I said, the man deserves not only the little ones he deserves.
00:14:27.780 He deserves the big medallion, you know, that he can.
00:14:30.440 Yeah, absolutely.
00:14:31.040 He absolutely does.
00:14:33.060 And the media will never give him the credit that he's due.
00:14:36.160 But I mean, this is the same media, Russ.
00:14:38.880 I want to go through some of the things and the hoaxes that the media has covered and fawned
00:14:43.620 over the last 10 years.
00:14:44.820 The Russia collusion hoax, the Inflation Reduction Act, that it reduces inflation.
00:14:50.580 Trump calling neo-Nazis, quote, fine people.
00:14:53.800 Remember that?
00:14:54.360 The Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation.
00:14:57.940 Governor Gretchen Whitmer, she was apparently getting ready to be kidnapped.
00:15:02.600 We'd find out that the whole thing was an inside job.
00:15:05.520 Brett Kavanaugh being a drunk, drunk rapist.
00:15:08.840 Knew that not being true.
00:15:10.700 Trump said drinking bleach would fight COVID and fix COVID.
00:15:14.520 Russia bombed their own pipeline.
00:15:16.780 Remember that underwater?
00:15:18.200 The Trump P Russia tape, the COVID lab leak was a conspiracy theory.
00:15:22.380 Trump was storing nuclear secrets at Mar-a-Lago.
00:15:28.460 The Steele dossier, you remember that?
00:15:30.180 The whole Russia collusion hoax?
00:15:31.800 Remember all that, right?
00:15:33.700 Andrew Cuomo showed the best leadership during COVID-19.
00:15:37.700 Trump built cages for migrant kids.
00:15:40.580 Trump overfed the koi fish in Japan.
00:15:43.260 I had to get that one in there, being we're in Japan right now.
00:15:46.720 You all remember that when Donald Trump just dumped the fish food in there that was given to him to feed the koi fish.
00:15:53.360 But that was another one that they ran when President Trump was killing the koi fish in Japan.
00:15:58.580 Build back better.
00:15:59.380 It was going to pay for itself.
00:16:01.180 That's right.
00:16:02.200 Trump's tax cuts only benefit the rich.
00:16:05.880 Cloth masks and those masks that we had to wear during COVID, they all prevented COVID.
00:16:10.320 If you got the vaccine, Russ, you wouldn't catch COVID.
00:16:13.140 Trump used tear gas to clear a crowd for a Bible photo outside the White House.
00:16:18.360 Yet another one of their BS things.
00:16:21.420 Ivermectin is a horse dewormer and it's not for humans.
00:16:25.780 Peaceful protests were mostly peaceful.
00:16:27.680 Remember the Summer of Love?
00:16:29.000 That was another one of theirs.
00:16:30.940 Trump overpowered the Secret Service to take over the steering wheel of the beast on January 6th.
00:16:37.560 You'll remember that.
00:16:39.120 Officer Sicknick on January 6th was murdered by protests.
00:16:42.180 Turns out that wasn't the case.
00:16:44.040 The only people who were killed on January 6th were, conveniently, Trump supporters.
00:16:48.580 Remember that, right?
00:16:50.240 Russ, the list goes on and on and on.
00:16:52.360 I think that's just to name a few about the complicity of the mainstream media and the BS that these people will spew.
00:17:00.480 And they have no bounties, Russ.
00:17:02.860 John, you can turn that into a comedy club special with all that.
00:17:09.640 It's just so laughable now.
00:17:12.040 And I think the American people have caught on that this is all laughable and a joke from the mainstream media,
00:17:19.200 which is why the Communist Nonsense Network and the MSDNC or whatever they want in MSN, whatever, now, you know, wow, or whatever they want to call themselves.
00:17:30.380 They're dying on the vine as they should.
00:17:32.720 So, you know, the people are getting, you know, because of outlets like your own, independent news and people are finally realizing that they can find the truth somewhere else.
00:17:45.740 Because these these leviathans, these dinosaurs are dying like as if asteroids are coming in by the by the millions.
00:17:55.560 Yeah. And they're bleeding cash, which is good for us.
00:17:58.400 The faster I believe in freedom of speech, Russ, whether I agree with it, freedom of speech is not for you to tell me what I want to hear.
00:18:05.120 Freedom of speech is for you to tell me what I don't want to hear.
00:18:07.400 And that's what makes it freedom of speech.
00:18:08.980 And that's what protects it.
00:18:10.100 So I'm all for it.
00:18:12.420 But when you've got a mainstream media that's out here brainwashing people and lying, that's not freedom of speech.
00:18:18.640 Freedom of speech isn't you coming out here.
00:18:21.200 Obviously, it's protected under freedom of speech.
00:18:22.980 But you lying to the American people and you deceiving the American people, that's not what it is.
00:18:28.380 And that's not what it's about.
00:18:29.640 But that's what these mainstream media outlets have made it about.
00:18:34.140 On Friday, Russ, as we were on a 24 hour journey over here to Asia,
00:18:40.100 I got a little alert on the phone that John Bolton, everyone knows John Bolton and the big mustache.
00:18:46.980 John Bolton, his house was raided by the FBI.
00:18:50.680 Let's take a listen to what President Trump had to say about that.
00:18:53.500 No, I don't know about it.
00:18:54.640 I saw it on television this morning.
00:18:56.300 I'm not a fan of John Bolton.
00:18:58.160 He's a real sort of a low life.
00:19:02.260 When I hired him, he served a good purpose because, as you know, he was one of the people that forced push to do the ridiculous bombings in the Middle East.
00:19:12.840 He wants to always kill people.
00:19:16.240 And he's very bad at what he does.
00:19:17.980 But he worked out great for me because every time he doesn't talk, he's like a very quiet person,
00:19:23.180 except on television, if he could say something bad about Trump, he'll always do that.
00:19:27.600 But he really doesn't talk, he's quiet.
00:19:30.320 And I'd walk into a room with him with a foreign country, and the foreign country would give me everything
00:19:34.200 because they said, oh, no, they're going to get blown up because John Bolton was there.
00:19:38.100 He's not a smart guy, but he could be a very unpatriotic guy.
00:19:43.740 I mean, we're going to find out.
00:19:44.540 I know nothing about it.
00:19:45.700 I just saw it this morning.
00:19:47.000 They did a raid.
00:19:47.600 Do you expect the DOJ to break you on this?
00:19:50.800 Yeah, they'll break me on it, probably today sometime.
00:19:53.780 And who are ministering?
00:19:54.640 I don't want to.
00:19:55.140 I tell them and I tell the group.
00:19:56.520 I don't want to know, but just you have to do what you have to do.
00:19:58.840 I don't want to know about it.
00:19:59.820 It's not necessary.
00:20:01.080 I could know about it.
00:20:02.080 I could be the one starting it.
00:20:03.580 I'm actually the chief law enforcement officer.
00:20:07.040 But I feel that it's better this way.
00:20:10.220 So that was what President Trump had to say, saying he has nothing to do with it, letting the FBI do their job.
00:20:14.840 But if we want to listen to Chris Christie, let's take a listen in and see what this idiot's got to say about the investigation.
00:20:21.820 Absolutely.
00:20:22.300 And look, let's be fair.
00:20:24.060 When we talked about this in the context of the raid of Mar-a-Lago, I said the same thing at that point, that a federal judge had found probable cause to sign off on a search warrant, which means there's something.
00:20:35.400 It doesn't necessarily mean that there's evidence beyond a reasonable doubt of guilt to a violation of a federal law.
00:20:40.640 But it means there's probable cause that a crime, evidence of a crime, was kept at the residence where he was searched.
00:20:46.960 Same thing applies to John Bolton.
00:20:48.540 And in this instance, they got two judges.
00:20:50.460 They got a search warrant in Maryland.
00:20:51.820 They got a search warrant in the District of Columbia.
00:20:53.460 And let's face it, John, the District of Columbia is not known as a bastion of conservative judges.
00:20:59.060 So I would say that there's real evidence that they believe something is there.
00:21:04.060 And now let's see what happens from here.
00:21:06.520 But I think it's kind of funny to hear the president talk the way he does about Bolton and classified information.
00:21:15.460 Yet when he had classified information, the same rules didn't apply.
00:21:20.320 And to see the FBI director posting on X while the raid is underway.
00:21:25.460 I mean, could you have imagined FBI director, then FBI director Chris Wray, tweeting while Mar-a-Lago was being searched?
00:21:33.400 I couldn't imagine Chris Wray ever tweeting.
00:21:35.420 He wasn't on social media.
00:21:37.800 He was not someone who was a tweet master like Cash Patel is.
00:21:43.340 All right.
00:21:43.640 So, Sarah.
00:21:45.060 OK, I'm just in awe, Russ, because first of all, what Chris Christie didn't realize, because he was never president of the United States and he never will be,
00:21:53.940 was Donald Trump had every right to have those documents because he's the only man who was able to declassify those documents.
00:22:00.340 That's number one.
00:22:01.480 He wants to talk about tweeting.
00:22:03.720 He wants to talk about Cash Patel tweeting out as the raid was happening.
00:22:07.860 How about CNN being outside my friend Roger Stone's home before the raid on his house even happened?
00:22:13.800 What did Chris Christie have to say about that?
00:22:18.260 Yeah, normally anything Governor Christie says I consider to be a bridge too far,
00:22:22.660 especially if you're trying to get from New Jersey into Manhattan or something.
00:22:28.360 At least he brought the fact that there's probably some truth to the reason why there's a warrant here for the search.
00:22:38.820 But, you know, come on.
00:22:42.400 As far as Bolton, you know, if you remember the late Ozzy Osbourne song, War Pig, I can I look every time I hear that song,
00:22:52.880 I think of a picture Bolton's face or or Cheney, former Vice President Cheney as being the the quintessential war pigs of our of our time.
00:23:06.060 But, you know, yeah, it's got it's got to be something.
00:23:13.580 I believe Trump that he's letting the Department of Justice do their thing.
00:23:17.440 Oh, it sounds like there I heard there might be he might have been getting some some classified leaked information on on a that's being sent to him either by email or potentially under the table.
00:23:30.820 So if that information is there, then that certainly would justify probable cause for a warrant.
00:23:37.120 Yeah, not like what they did to Donald Trump, Russ.
00:23:40.860 What they did to Donald Trump was selective persecution.
00:23:44.320 That's what they did to Donald Trump.
00:23:45.840 There was never any underlying crime for anything they did.
00:23:48.940 Now that these people are being investigated for real crimes.
00:23:51.940 And by the way, the Democrats are the one who set this new precedent, this new precedent that you go after your enemies.
00:23:57.420 They're the ones who set this precedent when they went after Donald Trump and sought to jail him for 700 years.
00:24:05.740 Donald Trump took the high road in 2016 and let Hillary Clinton skate.
00:24:09.580 My opinion, it was a mistake because of what has now happened to him.
00:24:14.640 And I stand by that.
00:24:16.160 That was a mistake that he let her get off the hook with that, with the Benghazi stuff, with the emails, whatever you want to look at, whatever case you want to look at that he let Hillary Clinton skate by.
00:24:25.680 And he got paid back times 100 for that, for what they've done to him.
00:24:30.500 But if John Bolton is doing criminal acts, he's going to be prosecuted for it.
00:24:36.080 If Fannie Willis is doing criminal acts in Georgia, she's going to be prosecuted for it.
00:24:39.920 If Letitia James in New York go down the list, cook over on the Federal Reserve Board.
00:24:44.860 These people all claim Donald Trump was the criminal, yet they had skeletons in their closet, Russ, like there's no tomorrow.
00:24:51.720 Let's think about, you know, the the red case in New York, supposed in a in a busy, you know, shopping mall or store.
00:25:03.960 And the woman doesn't remember what year of what, you know, the dress she said she wore wasn't even even in existence at the time.
00:25:14.220 She talks to Cooper on CNN and says that she thinks rape is sexy.
00:25:20.640 Like this woman's a nut job.
00:25:23.980 And and then down there, Mar-a-Lago, I believe that probably just the swimming pool itself is worth 18 million dollars.
00:25:33.320 Yeah. Oh, come on.
00:25:36.060 You know, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that this was lawfare at its at its finest and stupidest.
00:25:43.380 But and and with Mr. Roger Stone, you know, the CNN setting up their cameras, you know, before the FBI gets there.
00:25:54.520 Come on. You know, so we all know what this is.
00:25:58.640 I I can't imagine that President Trump or even if he doesn't know that that Miss Bondi would do something like this without the real probable cause for for the former national security adviser, Bolton.
00:26:15.900 Yeah. Yeah. You know what?
00:26:18.380 Donald Trump's not going to get these favorable judges.
00:26:20.420 The Justice Department is not going to get these favorable judges that the the last regime got.
00:26:25.780 So whatever case they're building, I think it's going to be a legitimate case, not this nonsense that they built against Donald Trump, that they built against Peter Navarro, that they built against Roger Stone, that forced these people to be pardoned for for abuse of justice.
00:26:38.880 I mean, I think what it's attributable to.
00:26:46.780 These people deserve everything they're getting.
00:26:48.620 Adam Schiff, every single one of them is your neighbor over there in Maryland, Russ.
00:26:53.060 Apparently he wanted to partake in more.
00:26:55.100 Well, that seems to be the thing these days, mortgage fraud.
00:26:57.660 You know, I never even thought about that, apparently how easy it is.
00:27:01.340 But these guys are all and women are now all being looked at by Bill Pulte, who's going to be joining us next week on The Great America Show, FHA director for insuring fraud.
00:27:14.800 They were all throwing rocks, Russ, when they were living in glass houses.
00:27:18.560 And they expect now to just cry retribution.
00:27:21.920 I don't know how it works.
00:27:23.700 You know, let the judicial system do its real job.
00:27:27.100 And, you know, if they're innocent, they'll, you know, they'll be found innocent.
00:27:31.680 If they've committed these crimes, they need to be accountable for them.
00:27:35.020 And it's, you know, my gosh, what hypocrisy on the, you know, the demon crats for this nonsense.
00:27:43.440 Obviously, they believed that President Trump would never get back into the White House.
00:27:47.400 And, my gosh, you know, it's him letting Hillary off the hook for what she did.
00:27:53.540 I mean, that woman has her own legion of flying monkeys at the time she could launch it at anybody she wanted.
00:27:59.760 So, you know, someone still needs to pour water on her and let her melt away.
00:28:05.680 It's just crazy.
00:28:06.760 Yeah, you know, I am here in Maryland, and this is, I'm a true Marylander, was born and bred here, and, you know, learned how to sail in Chesapeake Bay when I was a kid, and hiked in the Western Western Mountains of Maryland as a Boy Scout.
00:28:20.240 But, you know, you mentioned earlier about the gerrymandering.
00:28:24.340 I have a little suggestion.
00:28:25.360 Let's have, of all the MAGA folks that live in communist states like myself, that we have a competition on who has the most gerrymandered districts and give some kind of award for it, John.
00:28:41.460 I submit that this is Maryland's third district for our state.
00:28:48.380 Now, take a look at this nightmare.
00:28:51.180 That's our third.
00:28:52.380 How can any state beat that?
00:28:56.820 I'd like to see some other contestants and what they can put up as far as my competition for the worst gerrymandered district in any particular state.
00:29:10.840 And the whole map is, this is Central Maryland.
00:29:14.620 If you were to look at that, you'll see that the third is not the only one that's a bloody nightmare.
00:29:19.840 So, it's, you know, come on, you know, the hypocrisy, the hypocrisy ought to be a little caveat right next to the word Democrat.
00:29:30.960 Yeah, you know, they'll give you a run for your money over in Illinois, Russ.
00:29:34.740 They got a few crazy ones over there.
00:29:36.300 Wisconsin's got a few interesting ones.
00:29:38.560 New York's got a few interesting ones.
00:29:40.980 You're not alone in the madness of gerrymandering.
00:29:44.300 Let's talk a little bit about Tulsi Gabbard and the work that she's doing.
00:29:49.540 Let's start off with the voting machines.
00:29:51.260 A few weeks ago, Tulsi came out and said that voting machines are extremely vulnerable to manipulation, I guess we'll say, to keep it from not getting sued.
00:30:01.080 Because these people are feeling rather litigious these days, Russ.
00:30:03.680 Because they can get away with it.
00:30:05.540 Because they're allowed to use the courts to push whatever lawfare they want.
00:30:10.460 It turns out it's not only criminal lawfare in this country.
00:30:13.120 There's a civil lawfare.
00:30:15.180 Fox settling a $787 million lawsuit against one of these companies in litigation right now for another one of these companies.
00:30:24.760 It's mind-blowing to me that nobody wants to get to the root issue and find out why, why there's people who are so vehemently against getting rid of these voting machines.
00:30:39.940 And why, for years before Donald Trump brought up the issue, the Democrats were in favor of getting rid of these machines.
00:30:45.820 And why the code inside these machines that are controlling our elections, number one, is run by private companies, and number two, why it's so secretive.
00:30:57.020 Why is everyone so, not everyone, but why are some of these rhinos on the right and almost 99% of the Marxist-Democrat party so against getting to the bottom of, are these machines vulnerable?
00:31:09.220 Are these machines capable of hacking our elections?
00:31:12.980 Why would they be so against that?
00:31:15.820 Well, if you go back to after the 2016 election, and you talk to a lot of these Democrats, they will deny the fact that President Trump won that election.
00:31:28.760 And they'll bring up the fact that they believe that voter machine manipulation was a problem in that election.
00:31:35.740 And matter of fact, there's a documentary, I think it's called Kill Chain.
00:31:39.360 They talk about the vulnerabilities of voting machines.
00:31:44.300 And this was the talk of the town after President Trump was elected in the first round.
00:31:50.740 So now, all of a sudden, you know, oh, my gosh, there's no such thing as any problems that could happen with a voting machine.
00:31:58.040 And anyone that says anything, you know, they're, they're an election denier and they're, you know, they live in la la land.
00:32:06.480 And, you know, so once again, it's the hypocrisy from the from the left that we just have to shake our head over.
00:32:12.700 But, you know, it's come on now.
00:32:15.400 Now, here's one thing that I know.
00:32:16.900 Well, I spent a fair amount of time with CIA and Langley and I would talk to those folks.
00:32:22.960 And one of their guys told me that the United States has used election machine technology overseas to rig elections or influence the votes of other countries.
00:32:35.840 And I have no idea, you know, this I'm just hearing it from a source at CIA, but or what machines or what companies I don't know.
00:32:47.140 But that's what I heard from this individual.
00:32:49.340 And if you think about it, I believe that's probably true.
00:32:54.640 And maybe one of the reasons, you know, I believe that may be one of the reasons why the government is so adamant on keeping hands off on digging into this, because our own government may have been involved with this in the past.
00:33:08.560 You know, monkeying around with things overseas.
00:33:11.780 And, of course, a lot of other countries overseas are going way are going back to paper ballots.
00:33:17.380 And no no tabulators, you know, even the computer tabulators have been thrown out the window because I think they know there's some monkey business being going on.
00:33:27.180 So with that said, you know, you know, wouldn't it be a good idea if we ourselves, you know, especially considering what the Democrats, the Democrats told us about the vulnerability and kill chain after the 2016 election that then we go back to the old school and do this with the paper ballots and get the results.
00:33:46.640 Like President Trump said that night of who won, you know, whether it be your guy or your gal or someone else's, you know, to know what the true will of the American people was.
00:33:57.120 Yeah. In the 1700s, late 1700s, when we had our our elections, there wasn't a voting machines.
00:34:05.620 And we found out who then was the president of the United States.
00:34:10.180 We didn't have to go check tabulators.
00:34:12.820 We didn't have to put it in a machine to figure out who won.
00:34:15.940 You circle one choice, one vote for one person.
00:34:20.140 And it goes so that yet the Democrats now are just absolutely melting down at the prospect of the voting machines going away and the mail and ballots going away.
00:34:28.860 Anytime there's such uproar about that, I think there's this concern to be had.
00:34:34.780 Tulsi Gabbard, who I think is doing an absolutely amazing job, Russ, cutting half of her her staff at the ODNI,
00:34:40.380 cutting some security clearances from some of the worst possible people on this planet,
00:34:48.780 perpetrators of just absolute chaos over the course of the last 10 years against Donald Trump,
00:34:54.640 against anyone who's associated with Donald Trump.
00:34:56.820 Give me your assessment on how do you think Tulsi is doing?
00:34:59.280 I know we'd spoken before she took the job and intermittently as she took the job.
00:35:03.620 And you would express some concern about her being a neophyte.
00:35:07.080 And I think, you know, a lot of people have.
00:35:08.640 But I've got to give her an A-plus, in my opinion, on the work that she's doing.
00:35:13.040 As someone who knows the work she's doing, the inner workings of it, give me your assessment on how you think she's doing.
00:35:20.040 Well, you know, I believe that she got set up with that, the national intel assessment with the Iran,
00:35:26.740 possibly of nukes in Iran and spinning up the fissile material.
00:35:31.840 And I think she's learned her lessons.
00:35:34.160 I think she knows who she can trust and who she can't.
00:35:37.320 And in doing, you know, and she's proven that she is a loyal and dedicated person who wants to bring this riffraff to an end.
00:35:46.920 And, you know, at first I wasn't sure.
00:35:50.560 But now I'm, you know, raising the banners for Tulsi Gabbard.
00:35:56.020 And, you know, I think that, yes, she didn't have an intelligence background.
00:36:01.760 But think about it, maybe that's what we needed.
00:36:04.340 Maybe we needed someone who wasn't an intel weenie to get in there and clean this mess up.
00:36:10.480 But she still needs to have the right people to help her.
00:36:13.440 But, you know, like I said, she's going in and looking at people's, you know, hopefully their government emails and seeing what kind of, you know, things that they're throwing around there.
00:36:23.900 There might be, you know, against, you know, when you're an intel guy or gal, your job is just to bring the intelligence to whomever the president is.
00:36:32.500 Whether you voted for that president or not, you have basically, objectively, your job is to tell the president and to tell the national leaders what is going on.
00:36:45.500 And they are the ones that create policy.
00:36:47.940 They're the ones that make the decision.
00:36:49.600 Your job is to tell them as best as you can what is going on and what the situation is.
00:36:54.580 And their job is to run with that information.
00:36:56.860 You don't have to say, oh, gee, I don't like this president, so I'm going to, you know, I'm going to put in some dirty information there to make that president look bad.
00:37:08.440 Anyone like that needs to be fired and in some cases need to be behind bars.
00:37:13.640 And I think Tulsi Gabbard is the gal who's dedicated to make sure these things happen to some of the riffraff we have in our own intelligence community.
00:37:23.100 And I hate to say that because I'm an intelligence guy that we have been imbued with some of this dirty dealing.
00:37:33.740 Yeah.
00:37:34.040 If we don't have accountability for these people, Russ, we don't have a country.
00:37:38.400 We allow these people to continue to undermine our democracy in our country.
00:37:42.000 We do not have a country.
00:37:43.580 And, you know, I'm over here in Asia spending some time over here and in Japan.
00:37:49.420 And, you know, I expect you said to you when we spoke on the phone earlier today, it's probably my second favorite country to America getting to, you know, to learn about this country.
00:37:58.780 You spent a lot of time here.
00:38:00.180 I've got a special kind of respect for these people over here.
00:38:03.560 They run an absolutely brilliant country now, a country with nowhere near the population of America, but among the five largest GDPs in the world.
00:38:15.900 They don't have any immigration problems.
00:38:18.700 They have no illegal immigration problems.
00:38:21.100 The people here don't speak English, which I think is actually a good thing, Russ, because they speak their language.
00:38:26.060 They speak to their people.
00:38:27.020 And, you know, I have a hard time getting around here, but that's fine.
00:38:29.600 I respect these people.
00:38:30.480 Whereas you go to America and you go to some places and they don't speak English and they speak Spanish to you or Chinese or whatever the language they decide they want to speak to you.
00:38:38.820 The people here have a sense of pride that I don't think, you know, a lot of people who migrate to America have.
00:38:46.560 The way the thing is run is just absolutely brilliant, in my opinion, Russ.
00:38:50.760 Not everyone who's born here is a citizen.
00:38:53.580 Imagine that, right?
00:38:54.620 You don't just become a citizen when you're born in a country.
00:38:58.120 You have to run through a process.
00:38:59.780 A man I was talking to him, he takes 10 years to become a citizen, to get a green card.
00:39:03.680 You never become a fully citizen, but you get a green card to stay in the country.
00:39:06.980 If you get fired from your job, you have three months to get a new job or you're out of there.
00:39:11.560 So this is, I think, a model on how a country, you know, we're back on that track now in America, but this is a model on how a country should be run.
00:39:21.740 Your thoughts, Russ?
00:39:23.500 Well, you know, I lived a few years there when I was active duty in the Air Force and I fell in love with Japan.
00:39:28.940 It is a beautiful country.
00:39:30.220 I traveled all over Japan.
00:39:31.680 And I was in Northern High Station, Northern Honshu.
00:39:35.720 And it's, one thing I noted about the Japanese people is they have a sense of honor.
00:39:41.280 And they take pride in their country and cleaning up and making things look nice, you know, like President Trump is trying to do in D.C. right now.
00:39:50.040 And they're just wonderful people to me.
00:39:54.760 And I would like, like I think I mentioned, I'm envious that you're there now and I'm not.
00:40:00.320 So it's a beautiful place.
00:40:03.880 The Japanese are wonderful people.
00:40:05.820 And that's that sense of pride and honor is, and I've traveled all over Asia.
00:40:10.380 I've been to all those other countries in Asia.
00:40:12.420 And as far as, you know, I've seen some horrible things in places that I probably won't talk about.
00:40:19.320 But the Japanese, they're wonderful people.
00:40:22.580 And, you know, aside from, actually, my uncle was killed fighting the Japanese at the end, towards the end of the Second World War.
00:40:30.760 And he was a Navy frogman, precursors to the Navy SEALs.
00:40:35.220 But I go back there in a heartbeat, a wonderful place, a place, you know, people of honor.
00:40:43.040 And like I said, I wish I was in Shinjuku strolling through the gardens right now.
00:40:50.620 After we get off for you here, we're headed to the zoo to go see some pandas.
00:40:53.040 But no, it's a testament, Russ.
00:40:54.700 This place has been under predominantly conservative leadership, which kind of oxymoron.
00:41:01.240 They call it, I guess, the Liberal Democratic Party here, which is their conservative leadership since 19, around 1955, the 1950s, switching for a few years in between throughout from from 1955 to now.
00:41:14.180 But you walk down the street, Russ, here, there's not a piece of garbage on the floor.
00:41:18.500 You walk down the street here.
00:41:20.220 I've seen maybe two homeless people throughout Osaka, Kyoto and Tokyo, maybe three homeless people.
00:41:26.380 You don't see a drug epidemic.
00:41:27.760 You don't see people on fentanyl and heroin passed out on the side of the street.
00:41:32.520 You don't see bums begging for money.
00:41:35.000 The subway stations are immaculate.
00:41:37.020 Public bathrooms are immaculate.
00:41:39.200 And as I said, the people don't speak the best English.
00:41:41.100 And I don't care because this is their country.
00:41:43.520 I'm here visiting as it should be.
00:41:45.600 They don't have to cater to me.
00:41:47.320 I'm here visiting.
00:41:48.360 You know, it's nice if they do speak English.
00:41:49.620 You know, you find a way to get around it with translations and stuff.
00:41:52.800 The cell phones have made it very easy these days.
00:41:55.140 But that's what I think America should be like.
00:41:57.240 This is what America could be like under great conservative leadership.
00:42:02.100 As I said, since about 1955, give or take a few years in between, you know, losing their political systems a little bit different than ours.
00:42:10.160 It's for a different conversation.
00:42:11.300 I don't think people care about.
00:42:12.340 But it's just nice to see that there are countries still who love their values.
00:42:17.500 And, you know, I hope America could get back to that and solve this migrant, this immigration, this radical issue of migrants taking over our country.
00:42:28.460 Because if it doesn't, Russ, we're going to turn to a third world nation where English won't be the first language in America.
00:42:34.500 That's what scares the heck out of me.
00:42:36.060 And, you know, traveling to a place like this really opens your eyes to what things could be, what should be, and what they shouldn't be.
00:42:43.980 Well, memorize the kanji, the written Japanese characters for wherever you're going.
00:42:50.500 If you get on the subway, you know where to get off on your stop.
00:42:53.560 And don't be surprised, a couple times, the subway's are very jammed full of people.
00:42:59.800 A couple times, I got my own caboose pinched and a bunch of young ladies are standing around trying to not laugh.
00:43:05.880 So, I'm not sure, should I, you know, file for sexual harassment because some young Japanese girl was having a little fun with me.
00:43:18.880 It's a wonderful place.
00:43:20.180 And like I said, I'm envious that you're there right now.
00:43:24.560 Yeah, it's like I said, it's a terrific place.
00:43:27.540 And the sense of pride this country has, I think, is admirable.
00:43:32.100 And I think Donald Trump's on his way to making America great again, you know, as it should be.
00:43:38.700 Russ, we can speak for hours.
00:43:40.500 Always a delight to talk with you.
00:43:42.260 Next time we speak, I'll be back, hopefully stateside.
00:43:45.280 But always a delight to talk to you.
00:43:47.400 We'll talk to you soon, my friend.
00:43:49.280 Be well.
00:43:50.480 Have a good time while you're there in Japan because it's a wonderful place.
00:43:54.320 Thanks, everybody, for being with us today here on The Great America Show.
00:43:57.100 We hope to see you back here tomorrow for The Great America Show, where our quest for truth, justice, and the American way continues.
00:44:02.600 Until then, may God bless you.
00:44:04.520 May God bless America.
00:44:05.540 And may God bless the great Blue Dobbs.
00:44:07.460 Have a great night, everybody.
00:44:08.340 Have a great night, everybody.
