Summary

Mike Waltz, the National Security Adviser, was on Laura Ingraham's show the other night when asked why Jeffrey Goldberg was on a phone call with President Trump. He said, "I don't know. He wasn't on my phone. And we're going to figure out how this happened." Then, just hours later, he was in a roundtable meeting with cabinet members of the Trump administration where he was asked the same question.

00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Great America Show.
00:00:05.780 It's great to have you with us today.
00:00:07.040 Thank you so much for joining us on this fine Wednesday night in America.
00:00:10.680 We are broadcasting live tonight, just past six o'clock on the East Coast, and whatever
00:00:17.160 else time zone you guys are in.
00:00:18.640 Thank you so much for joining us on this beautiful night in America.
00:00:22.680 Sparks flying, continuing to fly on Capitol Hill today, where President Trump's top advisors
00:00:27.780 are being forced to answer questions.
00:00:31.660 Now, Mike Waltz is behind, responsible for this entire signal gate, is what they're calling
00:00:40.360 it, the app that was used to relay messages among senior intel staffers and intel people
00:00:48.900 about the attacks that were being made on the Houthis just a few weeks ago.
00:00:52.560 So, Waltz doing all he can to not take accountability for it.
00:00:57.780 Take a listen to Waltz on Laura Ingraham just the other night when asked why Jeffrey Goldberg
00:01:04.680 of the Atlantic was on this phone call.
00:01:06.740 That's after success.
00:01:07.840 So they want to focus on this.
00:01:09.460 It's embarrassing.
00:01:10.260 Yes, we're going to get to the bottom of it.
00:01:12.660 We've have I just talked to Elon on the way here.
00:01:15.520 We've got the best technical minds looking at how this happened.
00:01:18.320 But I can tell you, I can tell you for 100 percent, I don't know this guy.
00:01:24.440 I know him by his horrible reputation.
00:01:26.200 And he really is a bottom scum of journalists.
00:01:28.840 And I know him in the sense that he hates the president.
00:01:32.260 But I don't text him.
00:01:33.500 He wasn't on my phone.
00:01:34.800 And we're going to figure out how this.
00:01:36.200 So you don't know what staffer is responsible for this right now?
00:01:39.700 Well, look, a staffer wasn't responsible.
00:01:42.480 And look, I take full responsibility.
00:01:44.180 I built the I built the group to make my job is to make sure everything's coordinated.
00:01:48.640 But how do the number execute?
00:01:49.540 I mean, I don't mean to be pedantic here, but how did the number have you ever had?
00:01:52.360 Have you ever had somebody's contact that shows their name?
00:01:54.580 And then you have and then you have somebody else's number there.
00:01:57.360 I never make those mistakes.
00:01:58.420 Right.
00:01:58.600 You've got somebody else's number on someone else's contact.
00:02:02.400 So, of course, I didn't see this loser in the group.
00:02:04.960 It looked like someone else.
00:02:06.180 Now, whether he did it deliberately or it happened in some other technical mean is something we're
00:02:11.080 trying to figure out.
00:02:12.460 So you're.
00:02:12.860 Hmm.
00:02:14.480 Very interesting.
00:02:15.640 Not sure how it happened.
00:02:17.340 You are the national security advisor to the United States.
00:02:20.480 So that was Waltz on Laura Ingraham.
00:02:22.560 Now, just hours before that, Waltz was in a roundtable meeting with cabinet members of
00:02:27.260 the Trump administration.
00:02:28.900 Now, the reason I'm talking about this is because everything somehow seems to fall incumbent
00:02:32.920 on President Trump.
00:02:34.160 Somehow it's President Trump's fault for everything.
00:02:37.480 Not these people who take accountability for their jobs.
00:02:40.740 Like I said, this man is the national security advisor of the United States, a man who should
00:02:45.300 know how to use technology perhaps better than anybody in this country making mistakes
00:02:49.720 like that.
00:02:50.720 Now, take a listen to Waltz's response just a few hours before that in this Oval Office,
00:02:55.520 rather in this cabinet office meeting.
00:02:57.760 And I think I'll ask Mike.
00:03:00.740 Mike is here.
00:03:01.320 Do you want to respond to that?
00:03:02.900 Yes, Mr. President, you asked about lessons.
00:03:05.320 I think there's a lot of the lessons.
00:03:06.860 There's a lot of journalists in this city who have made big names for themselves, making
00:03:11.740 up lies about this president, whether it's the Russia hoax or making up lies about Gold
00:03:17.620 Star families.
00:03:18.340 And this one in particular, I've never met, don't know, never communicated with.
00:03:22.720 And we are looking into him, reviewing how the heck he got into this room.
00:03:28.220 But I'll tell you what, the world owes President Trump a favor.
00:03:32.160 Under Biden, global shipping was shut down.
00:03:34.980 Penprick attacks, months between them, our destroyers being fired upon dozens of times.
00:03:41.180 President Trump took decisive action with his national security team, took out the head
00:03:47.120 missileer, knocked out missiles, knocked out headquarters, knocked out communication
00:03:51.680 sites.
00:03:52.420 And for once, as we hear, as you all hear from every one of our allies, thank God for American
00:03:59.120 leadership again.
00:04:00.260 Thank God for American strength.
00:04:02.840 You're welcome, Waltz.
00:04:04.500 And look, we have a national security team that was coordinating these efforts.
00:04:11.720 As Director Radcliffe testified today, his first day on the job, he was introduced to
00:04:17.480 this app on his government systems at the CIA and at the State Department and otherwise.
00:04:23.780 So, look, this journalist, Mr. President, wants the world talking about more hoaxes and
00:04:30.260 this kind of nonsense, rather than the freedom that you're enabling.
00:04:34.140 And a key part of our sovereignty is open sea lanes and knocking the crap out of terrorists,
00:04:39.100 which is exactly what your team and Pete Hegseth, a good friend and fellow veteran, is leading
00:04:44.340 the charge on.
00:04:45.200 And it's an honor.
00:04:45.640 We had a very, very successful.
00:04:47.520 Excuse me.
00:04:48.020 We had a very, very successful evening and we've had numerous success.
00:04:53.020 So, the issue I take with Waltz is, if you listen to that two-minute clip, how many times
00:04:59.300 does he say, aye?
00:05:00.880 You hear him mention John Radcliffe's name.
00:05:02.900 You hear him mention Donald Trump's name.
00:05:04.760 You hear him mention Russiagate.
00:05:06.000 You hear him mention all of these past occurrences and other people's names, but his own.
00:05:11.680 It was his staffer who allegedly added on Jeffrey Goldberg.
00:05:15.820 Now, Laura Loomer, who's going to be joining us tomorrow night here on The Great America
00:05:19.120 Show, is reporting tonight that that staffer who was added to the list is a man by the
00:05:25.480 name of Alex Wong, Chinese deputy, a China national who came to America, who's now, I
00:05:32.020 guess, an American citizen, but born in China, deputy national security advisor appointed by
00:05:37.820 President Trump, who is at the center of the Sigmagate scandal, is married to U.S.
00:05:41.920 attorney Candace Chi-Chi Wu, a Chinese woman who was one of the key attorneys involved in
00:05:47.680 prosecuting January 6th.
00:05:50.260 So, how does a man like this make it into the NSC, the NSA, wherever he is?
00:05:59.000 How does a man like that?
00:05:59.880 So, that's where I take issue with this, because guys like Hegstead now are taking the
00:06:04.840 fall, guys like Cash Patel, guys like John Radcliffe, Tulsi Gabbard, all have to take
00:06:09.780 the fall for a mistake that you made, a mistake that was made by you.
00:06:14.120 So, when you go into a press conference with Donald Trump and you say, well, sir, lies
00:06:19.080 about Russiagate and this and that, yes, we all know about that, because we live through
00:06:22.800 it.
00:06:23.360 We watch the man suffer.
00:06:24.460 We watch his family suffer.
00:06:25.440 We watch his friends suffer.
00:06:26.320 But what does that have to do with your staffer bringing in Jeffrey Goldberg to this group
00:06:33.660 chat, was it truly an accident?
00:06:36.040 I'm not sure how accidents like that happen.
00:06:38.580 As you heard explaining to Laura Ingram, it was a contact store under a different name
00:06:44.200 and this and that.
00:06:46.680 Story just doesn't seem to add up.
00:06:49.140 And as I keep saying, the reason I take issue with it is because President Trump is getting
00:06:54.000 the flack for this.
00:06:54.700 He's taking the flack for this because of people like Waltz not being able to do their
00:06:59.620 job correctly.
00:07:01.280 If you can't do the job, that's fine.
00:07:02.680 There's plenty of other people who would take that job and could do it far better than
00:07:08.480 you have so far, including our guest tonight.
00:07:10.780 He's going to be joining us in just a few moments, former senior NSA intel analyst and
00:07:14.980 whistleblower Russ Tice.
00:07:18.060 You know, to me, it's unjustifiable how you don't know what happened.
00:07:23.740 And then you going on Laura Ingram saying we need to Elon Musk to find out who did this.
00:07:29.600 What is there to investigate, sir?
00:07:32.760 You know who your staffer was who put the group chat together if it wasn't you.
00:07:36.980 It's a very simple answer.
00:07:38.520 It's a two word name.
00:07:41.280 And as I said, being reported by Laura Loomer, a gentleman named Alex Wong.
00:07:46.540 So stop blaming President Trump for your mistakes.
00:07:50.080 He's got enough on his plate.
00:07:51.240 He's got enough to worry about then babysitting you and the rest of the people who can't do
00:07:55.460 their damn jobs.
00:07:57.020 A man who's doing his job and doing a hell of a job at it.
00:08:00.220 Cash Patel.
00:08:00.800 He was on Capitol Hill today, of course, having to defend Mike Waltz.
00:08:04.240 Take a listen.
00:08:04.900 Another day has passed.
00:08:05.840 You actually was the night before the hearing.
00:08:07.680 Now that another day has passed, do you believe that it's now time potentially for the FBI
00:08:11.340 to open an investigation into this?
00:08:13.080 I'm not going to comment on that.
00:08:15.000 Because you're the director of the FBI, you don't believe it's appropriate to comment on
00:08:18.620 that?
00:08:18.820 Because there's a process in place.
00:08:20.320 There's an ongoing litigation and the National Security Council is reviewing this matter.
00:08:23.960 And I'm not going to discuss any open or closed investigation.
00:08:27.120 That ongoing investigation, literally, the lawsuit happened today or yesterday afternoon.
00:08:31.540 And the idea that you don't have an opinion on this at this point is frustrating to me.
00:08:35.320 No, it's not.
00:08:35.900 I'm not going to prejudge any matters.
00:08:37.700 And the men and women of the FBI will call the balls and strike.
00:08:41.320 Reclaiming my time.
00:08:42.340 Not you.
00:08:42.940 Sir, Mr. Chairman, I'd like to have.
00:08:44.740 Gentleman's recognized.
00:08:46.440 You have four seconds remaining.
00:08:47.800 No, I have more than that.
00:08:49.000 Two seconds remaining.
00:08:49.920 Because Mr. Patel would not add.
00:08:50.580 Gentleman's time has expired.
00:08:52.460 I'm Mr. Stuby.
00:08:53.740 Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
00:08:54.960 Director Gabbert, were there any sources?
00:08:57.980 See what I mean?
00:08:58.740 These people have jobs to do.
00:09:00.640 Cash Patel shouldn't have to be wasting his time down at a congressional meeting because Mike
00:09:05.120 Waltz doesn't know how to manage a group chat.
00:09:08.200 This isn't high school Mike Waltz.
00:09:10.560 This isn't a grade school.
00:09:13.140 Mistakes like that should not be happening at this top level of government.
00:09:16.980 They just don't happen.
00:09:18.520 Like I said, there's so much more for these people to be doing and working on than to be
00:09:22.700 dealing with this nonsense.
00:09:24.640 Because that's exactly what it is.
00:09:26.380 Speaking of nonsense, Judge Boesbert, that's the judge who demanded we bring back those
00:09:32.520 Trendeagua migrants, ruling today that President Trump is not allowed to deport them under the
00:09:39.500 Aliens Act.
00:09:41.180 A lawsuit was brought by American Oversight.
00:09:43.560 It's a Marxist Dem-run government watchdog group.
00:09:47.520 And guess who the judge assigned to the case?
00:09:50.300 Now, this case has to do with Signalgate, of course.
00:09:52.940 Guess who the judge appointed to the case was?
00:09:56.200 Judge Boesbert.
00:09:57.480 It's almost like there's only like three or four judges in that D.C.
00:10:01.940 court that continue to get these cases and they all happen to hate Trump.
00:10:07.300 So now, as I keep saying, it's time for people to do their jobs.
00:10:10.460 Mike Johnson, you're the Speaker of the House.
00:10:13.460 It's incumbent upon you to do your job and end this lawfare.
00:10:18.200 End these judges, these unelected bureaucrats.
00:10:21.040 I had someone say to me the other day, all judges are unelected.
00:10:24.400 That's absolutely not true.
00:10:25.800 You need to go do your research.
00:10:27.360 But these judges are unelected and they're appointed.
00:10:30.580 Mike Johnson, it's time for you to do your job and get these people the hell out of this
00:10:35.120 court, out of these courts, because they're going to continue to do what they've done.
00:10:39.600 They're going to continue to try to stifle this administration and the America First agenda
00:10:43.280 that over 70 million Americans voted for.
00:10:46.640 So Mike Johnson, get off your butt.
00:10:49.600 It's been months now.
00:10:50.480 What has Congress done?
00:10:52.500 What is Congress doing right now?
00:10:54.960 Three months since President Trump's been inaugurated.
00:10:57.220 And what do you have to show for it?
00:10:59.740 It's the Republicans race to lose, folks, in 2026.
00:11:04.180 It's the Republicans race to lose come 2028.
00:11:08.700 The Democrats have done everything they can to ensure they never get elected again.
00:11:12.340 But if Mike Johnson continues to sit on his rear end and do nothing about it, do nothing
00:11:16.660 about these intel agencies, do nothing about these rogue judges, unelected rogue judges
00:11:23.100 who think they're going to control this country, then we're going to have a big problem.
00:11:26.980 We're going to have a problem in 2026.
00:11:28.600 We're going to have a problem in 2028.
00:11:29.960 So as I said, it's incumbent upon Mike Johnson to get off his rear end and get to work.
00:11:36.120 Enough is enough, folks.
00:11:38.140 Get to work, Mike Johnson.
00:11:40.460 We can't do another four years like we did in 2016 to 2020.
00:11:44.520 We just simply can't afford it.
00:11:46.660 Folks, as I mentioned, our guest today is Russ Tice, former senior intel analyst and whistleblower from the NSA.
00:11:53.480 Russ, it's terrific to have you with us.
00:11:56.300 Thanks so much for joining us before we get to this whole slip up of the signal chat.
00:12:01.900 I want to get your take first.
00:12:04.180 Overall, we were promised an overhaul in the intel agencies and these three letter agencies.
00:12:10.940 Russ, have we gotten that?
00:12:14.260 No, I don't.
00:12:15.320 I haven't seen it.
00:12:17.740 I think, like I said earlier, I think there's a there's a lot of sphincters opened up right now
00:12:23.600 receiving a whole siphon full of smoke, a whole lot of it.
00:12:29.080 I mean, they've got to get rid of these snipes that are still in the intel service.
00:12:35.160 It's and they're all over the place.
00:12:36.960 And I think you're mentioning one just here a moment ago.
00:12:39.640 So until until they they clean house, they're going to have this sort of stuff happening.
00:12:49.140 There's there's there's going to be all kinds of sabotage, little sabotage things going on like this.
00:12:53.980 And that's kind of what this appears like it might be.
00:12:57.640 OK, it could be just an honest mistake.
00:13:00.000 Back in my day, we didn't have things like like signal app.
00:13:05.440 And we all had to do, you know, you might get a message and say, hey, hey, everybody get to a point
00:13:10.960 where you get on a on a J-Wix machine or a zipper net, depending on the level of the classification.
00:13:19.800 Now, I there's a whole bunch of different systems, depending on what you're doing.
00:13:23.880 This level could be definitely just at the secret level.
00:13:26.080 But yeah, and then they're saying they didn't say anything that was classified.
00:13:30.680 You know, I hate to say when you're talking about, you know, a strike that you that you're looking at taking place.
00:13:39.240 I would say that it's at least at the confidential level that, you know, you're going to be talking about something like this.
00:13:44.480 You're talking to them diplomatically about some disparities or some problems you're having with the Europeans.
00:13:51.640 That's definitely State Department political issue type stuff.
00:13:55.020 So, you know, I mean, someone screwed up, whether this was intentional or whether it was a mistake.
00:14:01.660 It's it's true. And these guys are just dancing around.
00:14:05.100 They're acting like the previous administration when when Mayorkas is up there dancing around the sombrero.
00:14:11.660 So, you know, just own up to it.
00:14:14.060 Find out what it is. Own up to it. Say, yes, we made a mistake.
00:14:16.860 It's not going to happen again. And and move on.
00:14:20.160 And and if there are snipes involved in this, you got to get the bag out, start, you know, shaking those bushes and clean these things up and get them the hell out of there.
00:14:31.300 Because all I see is, you know, Ratcliffe and and Miss Gabbard and the company.
00:14:38.900 I think they're all they're all being bamboozled right now.
00:14:41.560 And they're saying, you know, stuff like, oh, you know, it's only five percent of bad apples in the FBI.
00:14:47.500 Well, I think that's a bunch of horse hockey.
00:14:49.220 I think that that whole barrel of apples, there's only a few apples that haven't been rotten, rotted out.
00:14:57.680 And those those decent apples, they all get they all get thrown out of the barrel by your one friend, your FBI guy, Mr. Friend.
00:15:06.480 I think that's his name.
00:15:08.820 Yeah.
00:15:09.400 He got, you know, tossed out on his ear and retaliated again.
00:15:13.320 So the cleanup hasn't happened.
00:15:17.060 It needs to happen.
00:15:18.000 And until President Trump realizes that this is a major problem and the IC is still the light blood of the deep state, then he's just going to be the victim of what they're going to throw at him.
00:15:34.420 Now, how does a guy like this, Russ?
00:15:36.740 See, this is my issue with Waltz.
00:15:39.080 And this is not a Trump administration issue.
00:15:42.760 Like I had mentioned in my monologue, this is not something that shouldn't fall and coming upon President Trump.
00:15:48.180 These are industry veterans, industry professionals.
00:15:51.180 Waltz should know better.
00:15:52.740 Spending years in Congress, years in the military.
00:15:54.600 He's not.
00:15:55.680 That's why I'm saying this seems too good to be an accident.
00:16:00.180 And the other problem I take is Waltz wants to come out here and throw everyone else under the bus.
00:16:05.500 Right.
00:16:06.620 Doge is doing this.
00:16:07.680 Elon Musk is going to do this.
00:16:08.720 President Trump, they came after you for Russiagate.
00:16:10.500 That doesn't have anything to do with anything.
00:16:12.160 Well, John Ratcliffe is doing this.
00:16:14.100 He doesn't mention I maybe more than one time when you're the head of the NSA.
00:16:21.040 I mean, that's completely, completely irresponsible in my opinion.
00:16:26.100 But my question to you is, Russ, this guy, Alex Wong, who is being reported as his guy, his point man for this mission, is a deputy national security advisor who was appointed by President Trump.
00:16:38.680 Now, President Trump presumably didn't know who this gentleman was before he appointed him.
00:16:42.580 He's listening to guys like Mike Waltz.
00:16:44.460 President Trump's one single man.
00:16:46.820 He tries to know as much as he possibly can about pointing people and doing things.
00:16:50.760 But he's got to rely on his advisors at some point.
00:16:53.360 So Waltz is in here talking in his ear, saying this is who I want as my deputy.
00:16:58.400 Yet this guy's got his wife persecuting January Sixers.
00:17:02.900 That right there should draw the line.
00:17:05.560 I mean, that's ridiculously absurd that we've got this guy, you know, in our top echelons of the government running things.
00:17:17.140 When his wife is is persecuting January Sixers, he worked for Covington and Burling.
00:17:22.980 It's one of the law firms that President Trump recently stripped of their security clearances and terminated all of their government contracts.
00:17:29.500 I mean, President Trump went after this firm for weaponization of the government, and we've got this guy working for the NSA.
00:17:39.020 How does the NSA, how does he float under the radar, Russ?
00:17:46.740 Well, you know, you'd like to think that, you know, something like what Zach Cliff was doing.
00:17:51.840 You know, he's he's not.
00:17:53.160 You know, yesterday I watched some of this and they said, well, you're all spooks.
00:17:56.440 Well, no, they are.
00:17:57.100 These people are not spooks.
00:17:58.500 Maybe the director of NSA right now could be considered a spook.
00:18:03.260 His background is mainly cyber, though, not signals to be the director of the signals intelligence agency, NSA.
00:18:10.740 But, you know, I see people like the chair of who's this Tom Cotton.
00:18:16.040 You know, this is the guy that perpetually votes to to to to extend the 702 provision over and over again.
00:18:24.120 When we see time and time again that they violate that provision over and over with with millions of Americans being domestically spied.
00:18:32.940 And I'll tell you right now, I think that every American citizen in this country is still being having every single communication that they have being being picked up and stored at that facility there in Utah.
00:18:43.400 So Kash Patel saying that, oh, 702 is a wonderful thing.
00:18:49.220 Well, how much smoke has been blown up his caboose about, oh, if we don't have this, people will die.
00:18:56.080 Well, you know, all that all that all that abuse that the FBI was doing against the against the January six people and all that all that information they were gathering was coming from NSA.
00:19:07.980 Right. Right. So so so these abuses are happening and these guys are proving themselves to be neophytes.
00:19:15.260 So obviously, President Trump can't, you know, he he's he can't literally go in and vet, you know, who these who these woke, you know, you know, implants are these.
00:19:28.080 But but but but you've got a position, you've got a situation here where you've got relatively folks that don't know what they're doing in the intel field.
00:19:38.500 They're not spooks and they're trying to to spin themselves up.
00:19:43.420 And and this is the kind of stuff, because let me tell you, the one the ones that are there in there in the woodpile, they're they're setting the traps.
00:19:53.640 And this is just maybe the first trap we've seen. There's going to be more.
00:19:59.320 Yeah, you're absolutely right. I want to take a quick break here, folks.
00:20:01.780 We're talking with Russ Tice. Russell, when we return, I I want to talk a little bit more of that five to 702, because I'm not we lived before it.
00:20:08.300 We lived without it before 9-11. 9-11 happened.
00:20:11.840 We were told by many people 9-11 was going to happen.
00:20:14.640 Good friend of mine, Tony Schaefer, a friend of yours. He'll be on the show this week.
00:20:20.100 Came to the to the the the the right people January of 20 of 2020, 2001.
00:20:29.180 I don't know why I couldn't get that up January of 2001 and said we have a credible threat that this is going to happen on the American soil.
00:20:37.640 Now, we didn't know it was World Trade Center. OK, we have that big attack.
00:20:40.680 Then we have, you know, years later, we have this Pfizer 702. I'm not entirely sure.
00:20:45.140 We still have attacks in this country overseas. What exactly the Pfizer 702 has even stopped?
00:20:51.160 I want to get your take on that. When we return, folks, we're talking with Russ Tice, former senior NSA in Talanos and whistleblower.
00:20:57.060 We're coming right back. So much more to talk about, so much more to uncover in these very rocky, rocky times.

00:22:06.500 Russ, before we went to break, we were talking about this FISA 702.
00:22:14.040 Real quick, actually, before we get to that, I want to give some shout-outs.
00:22:17.540 We the People, 0914 over in joining us on YouTube.
00:22:22.020 Fall Girl, Kelly Song are my two biggest fans, I like to think, over on Rumble.
00:22:27.860 They join me each and every night.
00:22:29.100 I don't know how they do it.
00:22:30.460 Sometimes I don't even join this show, Russ, and I'm doing the show.
00:22:33.000 So I appreciate you guys joining us on Rumble and everyone else tuning in on
00:22:36.980 Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and Rumble.
00:22:40.040 We truly appreciate it.
00:22:41.100 As I said, we're live tonight for tonight's show.
00:22:43.320 If you guys have any questions for Russ or for myself, put them in the chat
00:22:47.120 and we'll try to get to them before the end of the show.
00:22:49.620 Russ is a pretty open book.
00:22:52.020 Lou and Russ used to speak for hours at a time.
00:22:55.000 Lou would pick Russ's brain about everything.
00:22:58.080 So that should be a testament on who Russ Tice is because Lou Dobbs didn't just
00:23:02.340 call anyone from a vice.
00:23:04.000 You were one of them, Russ.
00:23:06.040 FISA 702.
00:23:07.460 It was a thing that Lou Dobbs fought against for years, absolutely made his
00:23:11.640 blood boil when they reauthorized it again this past time.
00:23:14.560 And now, Russ, these same folks who told us FISA 702 has got to go are somehow
00:23:19.760 now back on the wrong side of history, telling us we need it.
00:23:23.680 To the best of your knowledge, do you think FISA 702 has ever stopped any sort of
00:23:29.120 attack that was going to happen in this country?
00:23:30.560 Well, let's see.
00:23:32.900 We had the Boston bombers.
00:23:34.860 We've had all sorts of things that have happened domestically that they didn't pick up.
00:23:40.380 Yet they've used the same information to go dig in to go after January Sixers or little
00:23:47.020 grandmoms that are praying, you know, you know, 40 yards on the sidewalk off of an abortion
00:23:54.220 clinic to put grandmom in jail for praying, Lord forbid, or parents that go to a school
00:24:03.060 board meeting to protest that their children are being brainwashed and told that their gender
00:24:10.700 is wrong and that they have to have their genitals, you know, surgically removed without even their
00:24:17.320 parents knowing about things.
00:24:18.580 Oh, we have to go after those, Lord, you know.
00:24:21.580 And of course, when the FBI and the Department of Injustice was doing that, they were going
00:24:26.740 after these people by using signals techniques, using the stinger systems, provide that, you
00:24:36.420 know, if the FBI has provided them, or just going to NSA's database, so you've got people
00:24:42.120 like Cotton, you know, I'll come down to what I've said before.
00:24:48.340 I think a lot of these people are being blackmailed by NSA.
00:24:52.260 And this is what I found out in 2003, 2004, that NSA was literally targeting a lot of these
00:24:59.880 different congressmen and senators and all kinds of important people and judges, all the
00:25:06.420 Supreme Court judges NSA had targeted all their communications.
00:25:10.960 I'm not talking about just their one.
00:25:12.280 I'm talking about every phone number they had and their staffers' phone numbers and all
00:25:16.460 these things, and the press was being watched, and the Red Cross, and all these big-time
00:25:24.760 bankers.
00:25:25.740 The NSA was targeting all these people.
00:25:28.800 So, why would you do such a thing?
00:25:32.320 That's what I knew.
00:25:33.360 The obvious reason, the obvious reason is blackmail.
00:25:37.180 Is Tom Cotton being blackmailed and told, you will do what we tell you to do, Chairman Cotton?
00:25:44.760 Now, the chairman of the Intel Committee, former chairman, Radcliffe, and now director
00:25:54.040 of CIA, you will do what you're told because you're being blackmailed.
00:25:57.820 Is this happening?
00:26:00.740 This is what no one wants to think, that it could be this bad.
00:26:04.220 Now, everyone says when I first come out with some of this, that, oh, my God, once again,
00:26:08.100 Russ Tice is crazy.
00:26:09.320 Well, drinking again.
00:26:10.300 Of course, Mr. Snowden has proved that Russ Tice is not crazy.
00:26:16.540 He's talking in third person.
00:26:18.220 But this is what I found out.
00:26:21.020 This was the big stuff that I found out.
00:26:25.360 There's only one reason why that was happening.
00:26:27.800 It has to be for blackmail purposes.
00:26:29.580 And that means the Intel service has a lot of these people by the nether areas where they
00:26:38.720 could really crunch.
00:26:40.300 And they're going to make sure that if this is happening, that these people are going to
00:26:46.200 be controlled.
00:26:46.880 And they're going to say things like, oh, 702, wonderful.
00:26:50.320 Oh, you know, we only had a couple bad apples and all this stuff.
00:26:56.100 So you've got so many of these people that are still still right hiding right below the
00:27:03.100 levels.
00:27:03.820 And they're they're all there to basically sabotage our president's agenda.
00:27:09.420 That's simple.
00:27:10.620 I mean, Congressman Tim Burchard is one of my few friends who walks the halls of Congress,
00:27:15.400 a really good man, and said exactly what you'd said.
00:27:17.560 And this is a sitting member of Congress that, you know, vote will come up for something.
00:27:22.020 And a member is set to vote one way.
00:27:24.740 They've given their word and conference that they're going to vote this certain way.
00:27:28.360 And then someone comes up behind them in the cloakroom and says, remember that time?
00:27:34.240 It's truly concerning that this is how I mean, this makes Russ.
00:27:38.920 I don't know if you've ever seen House of Cards on Netflix, but or Scandal, another really
00:27:42.700 good show that was put out about corrupt politicians.
00:27:44.780 It makes it look like like Congress, like an R-rated movie that we are using our intel agencies
00:27:54.600 to blackmail our politicians into doing certain things.
00:27:58.700 I mean, to me, that yells, we've got a clean house to place.
00:28:02.620 Do you think this is perhaps part of why the Epstein files have been so delayed and delayed
00:28:08.500 and delayed?
00:28:08.980 Of course it is.
00:28:11.480 You know, any five-year-old who would look at this was smart enough to know that Epstein
00:28:16.340 was assassinated.
00:28:17.840 Now, think about that.
00:28:19.680 Think about all the machinations that would have to come together to do such a thing.
00:28:24.860 And that gives you an idea of what kind of pull the intelligence community and the people
00:28:32.620 that they're playing with, the other aspects of this, money coming from big corporate interests,
00:28:37.720 especially when CEOs were involved in the Lolita Express and other intel agencies, MI5 and possibly
00:28:45.560 even the Mossad were involved.
00:28:47.320 How did this guy get this kind of millions of dollars?
00:28:50.460 What had to be because he was working with the CIA to frame people to blackmail them.
00:28:57.260 So that's why when Epstein said, OK, you want to put me in jail?
00:29:02.300 I'm going to start whistling and start chirping like a parrot.
00:29:08.600 And at that point, they had to whack him because they can't have him coming out and say, yes,
00:29:14.200 I was an operative of the CIA and I set all these people up to be blackmailed.
00:29:18.620 And that's how a lot of these people are being controlled.
00:29:21.740 As a side from whatever NSA has got on people like perhaps, you know, Tom Cotton, if he's
00:29:27.800 being controlled, you know, would he cheat on his wife?
00:29:30.860 Is it a is it a land deal?
00:29:32.640 You know, the sweetheart land deal?
00:29:35.540 Is it, you know, is it K Street bribery?
00:29:39.340 You know, or is Tom Cotton just, you know, someone who saw the bells and whistles and the dog and pony shows
00:29:51.560 and had a whole lot of smoke going right up his colon and then he just drank the Kool-Aid.
00:29:56.560 So and it's the same with the whole lot, but not all.
00:30:02.940 You've got people like Burchard there in Tennessee who who's who's, you know, is a common sense guy and going.
00:30:09.840 He's got enough common sense to say something's going on here, you know, and he's right there looking at it from from from the pack of them.
00:30:18.260 So it's funny you mentioned Cotton because I've heard quite a few stories about Tom Cotton that I won't repeat on air.
00:30:26.740 I'm sure you can find them somewhere on the Internet, but goes to your point exactly that there's always something out there about somebody about things that they may have done that they shouldn't have done
00:30:38.080 or that they may have done that they haven't told their wife they've done or the country.
00:30:42.860 There's many members in Congress who have been found out.
00:30:46.020 I think there's so many more, Russ, that are still to be found out.
00:30:49.860 We have a question from you from YouTube, Russ, from We the People.
00:30:54.000 Can anyone sit back, you, Russ, my family or whoever, and think how our country got this way?
00:30:59.960 How has this happened?
00:31:00.960 My grandfather fought in World War Two under Douglas MacArthur.
00:31:04.620 Your thoughts about that?
00:31:06.120 You know, has it has it really changed is the question.
00:31:09.900 You know, J. Edgar Hoover was blackmailing presidents.
00:31:13.520 Yeah.
00:31:13.700 Yeah. So now he didn't have the capability that NSA does have today.
00:31:19.240 But a lot of the things against Martin Luther King were information that was coming from NSA.
00:31:26.420 And then they were putting the NSA was wiping all their fingerprints off of it and just saying it was human human intelligence reports.
00:31:34.360 So I think a lot of this stuff has been going on for an awful long time.
00:31:39.320 And now that we have a press that isn't just, you know, three major networks and we have people like you that are digging into the truth.
00:31:47.200 Then now that people are starting to go, hmm, maybe something's going on here.
00:31:52.400 And the same as your listener that just asked that question.
00:31:56.520 It's people are waking up because people are starting to ask questions.
00:32:01.600 I would like to ask Tom Cotton, you know, are you being bribed or do you really believe, you know, the nonsense?
00:32:10.940 Do you really think 702 is worthwhile?
00:32:13.240 Well, first of all, it's a complete violation of our Constitution.
00:32:17.420 You know, has anyone thought about that?
00:32:19.440 They all put their hands up in the air.
00:32:21.160 Oh, you know, like I did going into the military or as an officer, intelligence officer.
00:32:25.680 You know, we all we all basically swear allegiance to the Constitution and these people could care less that this is a violation of the Constitution and the law and these regulations and the of the agencies themselves.
00:32:43.400 So, I wonder, is it that we've really I think it's we've gotten this we've gotten worse with the advent of advanced technology.
00:32:52.980 So, you know, for your listener, we're we're Jagger Hoover only had a certain amount of capability.
00:32:59.940 Now we have with the advent of quantum computing and artificial intelligence.
00:33:06.020 This thing is getting to the quantum scale of Skynet, Orwellian Skynet.
00:33:14.380 So that's, you know, yes, your listener.
00:33:18.400 Yes, I think it's getting worse, but I don't think it's it's something new.
00:33:22.040 So, Russ, I want to take one more quick break here.
00:33:24.620 When we return, I'm going to tell you what I'm going to ask you.
00:33:27.300 I'm going to let you lament and think about it for the next minute or so.
00:33:30.860 Can we save ourselves from what we're going through from this mess that we're in?
00:33:35.520 It seems right now we're going further down the hole, but is there a remedy to fix it?
00:33:40.000 Is there a remedy to turn this thing around or are we going to just wait for an implosion?
00:33:45.120 Think about it, Russ.
00:33:46.060 We're going to take a quick break.
00:33:46.980 We're coming right back with your response, folks.

00:34:56.780 Folks, we're back with Russ Tice, former senior NSA Intel analyst and whistleblower.
00:35:01.380 Russ, can we right this ship, or are we just going to keep going until we implode or explode?
00:35:10.020 Boy, that's a good question.
00:35:13.300 If we don't root out the shaft from the wheat, they're just going to hunker down and wait
00:35:23.980 for President Trump to come out of office.
00:35:26.780 And then they're going to just, heck, they're not even waiting.
00:35:31.420 It looks like they're already, you know, they're setting bear traps everywhere for our President.
00:35:37.020 You know, I look, I mean, I tried to give Ms. Gabbard the benefit of the doubt, but I
00:35:43.220 mean, she was a medic in the Army.
00:35:46.900 I mean, and that's fantastic.
00:35:48.740 I have a nephew right now who's going to school to be a medic in the Army.
00:35:52.160 And, and that's a wonderful thing, but she's certainly not an intelligence person and I
00:35:59.140 should, an intelligence community specialist in any regard.
00:36:03.520 So, so she's basically a neophyte who, who, who just got put in a position she's not qualified
00:36:09.620 for.
00:36:10.580 And she's, I was looking at her yesterday.
00:36:13.140 She looked like a deer, a deer in the headlights.
00:36:15.340 And she, and her answers were like, uh, I don't want to answer anything.
00:36:19.420 Uh, I'm, I'm surprised I didn't hear, uh, you know, uh, I plead the fifth amendment or
00:36:23.980 something.
00:36:24.600 Um, you know, I'm looking, I'm thinking, holy moly.
00:36:28.600 Um, we've, we've got to do better than this because if we don't, the, the, the lifeblood
00:36:38.220 and the intel community is the lifeblood of, of the, of the deep state.
00:36:42.820 And, and unless you put a dagger, uh, uh, uh, you know, or a stake in that heart and
00:36:50.280 stop that blood from flowing and, and, and, and, and bomb that body, um, we're kind of,
00:36:57.700 you know, status quo right now.
00:36:59.820 Yeah.
00:37:00.260 And you're not saying this as a, you're saying this as a, as a career, uh, intel person.
00:37:04.840 You're not saying this as a Trump, AD, you voted for Donald Trump to the best of my knowledge.
00:37:08.640 I voted for Donald Trump.
00:37:10.300 And I mean, you know, nobody has been more supportive, uh, than us on the show than the
00:37:15.120 great Lou Dobbs.
00:37:16.140 Nobody has been more supportive of him and his administration and everything.
00:37:20.040 But, uh, the next four years are critical, Russ.
00:37:22.860 They're critical to the future of this country.
00:37:25.320 And the reason we put Donald Trump in there was to get this thing turned around.
00:37:28.840 You know, Cash Patel told us on this show many times he wanted to dismantle the FBI
00:37:34.180 building.
00:37:35.140 I understand that's a little bit hyperbolic, but, uh, at the same time, we've got to get
00:37:40.240 rolling here.
00:37:41.160 Cash is not going to be at the FBI director in four years.
00:37:44.260 If JD Vance or Marco Rubio, or one of these Republicans, uh, continues the legacy of Donald
00:37:50.580 Trump, you know, it's going to be a four-year job, a four-year and done, uh, and then onto
00:37:55.320 a think tank or something like that.
00:37:56.680 I hope that's not the way these folks are thinking, uh, Gabbard, Gabbard and company, but,
00:38:00.920 um, they needed to get it together.
00:38:03.040 You know, time is money.
00:38:05.020 We don't have all day.
00:38:07.640 Presumably we got to look at only the next two years, because if we lose the house in
00:38:11.740 2026, Russ, all bets are off.
00:38:14.100 There'll be no legislation moving through or the Senate.
00:38:17.400 There'll be nothing moving through.
00:38:19.380 So it'll be a total stalemate.
00:38:21.600 You know, Donald Trump will be essentially a lame duck president, not being able to get
00:38:25.280 anything through.
00:38:25.700 That's why when I say Mike Johnson's got to get off his rear end and start moving, he's
00:38:30.020 got to get off his rear end because we're down now less than two years, uh, till, uh,
00:38:34.860 the 2026 elections, if you look at it.
00:38:37.920 So, you know, they really got to get rolling the entire administration and stop looking for
00:38:43.440 president Trump's guidance on everything.
00:38:45.420 He can't do it all.
00:38:47.740 Uh, you know, he brought you guys in to do the job.
00:38:50.700 Uh, he's done enough, you know, you can't rely on him to do everything.
00:38:55.360 It's just not how things work.
00:38:58.460 And I'm afraid, Russ, that's what we see time and time again.
00:39:00.980 It's everyone needs Donald Trump to do everything, whether it be getting over the finish line
00:39:05.980 in elections, uh, or getting things done inside the government.
00:39:10.540 You know, it seems like a one man operation and Trump needs these people.
00:39:14.520 He can rely on your thoughts.
00:39:16.100 Well, I find it interesting, you know, now that cash Patel is the director and now he's
00:39:22.520 saying that, Oh, we just had a few bad apples.
00:39:24.800 And I, you know, if you've ever been on Capitol Hill, I had, I had one, I had to testify once
00:39:30.540 publicly and basically it's a big circus where everybody's trying to, uh, to, to, to make
00:39:34.840 points.
00:39:35.340 And then for something for, you know, for their, the, because they're on C, you know, C-SPAN
00:39:39.960 or whatever.
00:39:40.720 And then I had four or five, they were behind closed doors.
00:39:44.020 They were classified, um, walking around the, the, the, the different buildings, the
00:39:49.880 Raybourne, the Russell building, the different, you know, the hard book.
00:39:53.020 The one thing I always noticed when I'm there are all these, these, uh, 24, 25, 26 year old
00:39:59.900 young ladies that are, that are very cute to very attractive young ladies with nice figures.
00:40:04.440 Uh, and, and, and, and they're fawning all over the Senator or the Congressman that they're,
00:40:09.640 they're there to, uh, to be a staffer for now, just being human when you, when you have, you
00:40:17.360 know, uh, a very attractive young lady that's, that's, uh, has goo goo eyes every time she sees
00:40:23.360 you, you know, something could happen, you know, all these guys, most of them are married.
00:40:27.920 Um, so, I mean, humans are humans.
00:40:32.580 I just, you know, I, I see how many of these people are, are, are compromised and they're,
00:40:37.660 you know, they're being taken advantage of for that.
00:40:39.700 Um, I, you know, even if they are, they have to, you know, bone up to it and say, you know,
00:40:47.440 okay, I, I, in the Intel service, if you're having an affair with someone and the agency finds
00:40:54.580 out like at NSA, they will come to you and they'll say, we know that you're having an
00:40:59.060 affair with, uh, with your secretary or with, or with the gal who, who works down the hall
00:41:04.640 and who's the linguist or whatever.
00:41:06.520 And you will inform your wife that this is happening or we will two days from now, or
00:41:14.480 you're fired because you can be blackmailed and compromised.
00:41:18.520 Um, the same thing with like, uh, people that were homosexual, that they had to come out
00:41:23.660 if they weren't out or else they would be fired, um, because these are blackmailable
00:41:29.120 things.
00:41:30.020 So, uh, you know, I don't know how many people just have, uh, or have goo goo eyes because
00:41:37.580 they've, they've got the, the, you know, the Intel service will always bring them in and
00:41:41.820 say, we're doing this and that.
00:41:43.160 And, and if, if you were to dare vote against us, uh, you know, we're, we're, you know,
00:41:48.700 the lives are, you know, blood is on your hand nonsense.
00:41:52.480 They always come up with that nonsense.
00:41:55.040 Uh, you know, I noticed you, we were talking about budgets.
00:41:57.420 I just noticed that NSA just bought a farm that's, that's close to the main campus.
00:42:02.820 And then they're clearing that horse farm and it looks like they're going to build more
00:42:06.600 buildings there.
00:42:07.880 Oh my goodness.
00:42:09.060 And it's, I, I'm like, it doesn't stop.
00:42:12.900 You know, I'm, they just keep growing.
00:42:15.980 They're just this monstrosity.
00:42:18.560 Um, what do they need more buildings for?
00:42:20.520 We got 50 some in the, in the central Maryland area and we got stuff all over the country and
00:42:25.360 we got stuff all over the world.
00:42:27.020 Yeah.
00:42:28.120 You know, I can see maybe some more listening posts around the world in certain places.
00:42:31.860 Um, but it's just the, the monster is growing as far as I'm concerned.
00:42:38.160 I mean, how do we, we should be gutting these things.
00:42:40.840 Last time you and I spoke, we were talking about the size of these Intel agencies and
00:42:44.420 the millions of people with government contractors and stuff who are working there.
00:42:49.060 I mean, what the heck do we need them all for?
00:42:51.560 What are they actually doing aside from ruining this country?
00:42:56.160 Uh, we have a comment from fall girl in the chat.
00:42:59.820 Epstein's girlfriend, Maxwell is not talking.
00:43:02.300 So I was told by someone very high ranking that, uh, the reason why they didn't care to
00:43:09.260 have Maxwell's girlfriend talk, uh, I'm sorry, uh, Epstein's girlfriend, Maxwell talk and
00:43:15.060 why they didn't need anything.
00:43:15.920 Cause usually what happens is if you're a rat and you snitch, you get a lesser jail sentence.
00:43:21.760 I think she's serving like 20 years or something in Connecticut.
00:43:24.820 Um, uh, the country club jail.
00:43:27.720 Usually if you snitch, you get a lesser jail sentence.
00:43:29.840 I was told they didn't even need her to snitch because they had everything they needed.
00:43:33.440 They didn't need anything from Ghislaine Maxwell.
00:43:36.180 They didn't need her to testify anything because they had everything they need.
00:43:40.040 Yet Pam Bondi has dragged her feet through the mud each and every night.
00:43:45.080 Like she's in quicksand, uh, like she's catatonic instead of working on getting these documents
00:43:51.620 out.
00:43:52.540 She's on Fox news every night, Russ.
00:43:56.760 Well, uh, why would you, why would you put someone in the country club?
00:44:01.660 Um, if you put her in something that was kind of nasty, she might be wanting to, uh, to
00:44:06.580 blow, you know, to, to sing like a canary on a whole lot of things that she's told not
00:44:11.400 to sing about.
00:44:12.260 The point is I was told by a very high level official that we don't need her to sing because
00:44:18.520 we have everything we need.
00:44:19.920 We have everyone has been compromised.
00:44:21.960 Uh, I, uh, read today, um, uh, uh, that a 14 terabyte hard drive, Russ, 14 terabyte hard
00:44:30.760 drive had been recovered or uncovered, recovered.
00:44:34.100 Um, and the DC FBI HQ is now going through it.
00:44:38.660 Uh, this is from FBI whistleblower Kyle, Kyle Serafin.
00:44:42.100 Um, so I've been told that we don't need her, which is why there is no plea deal made and
00:44:47.220 why she's sitting behind bars.
00:44:48.760 Uh, but Pam Bondi is just sitting there catatonic, uh, you know, one day it's the documents are
00:44:56.640 on my desk.
00:44:57.260 One day we've got truckloads from New York.
00:44:59.860 I mean, what are you sorting through?
00:45:01.780 That's so national security about a man who's just, we're told just a, uh, wall street financier
00:45:08.300 and Harvard professor, uh, and pedophile.
00:45:11.260 What are they sorting through to protect and why is it taking so long?
00:45:18.740 The thing with Epstein is huge.
00:45:20.620 I mean, it's huge.
00:45:21.640 It's got to be huge.
00:45:23.160 It was obviously an assassination to do something at that level in, in a, in a high max security
00:45:29.060 facility.
00:45:30.160 Um, the, the, the, the levers that have to be pulled for something like that are incredible.
00:45:36.040 So, so that leads me to believe that pressure is being put on Ms. Bondi, uh, and perhaps
00:45:44.340 she herself is, is being put under the thumb and said, we know about this, or we know about
00:45:50.360 this, about what you've done in the past.
00:45:53.020 Uh, I'd like to use the example of the, you know, the young lady in, uh, in college who
00:45:57.340 goes to, uh, to spring break and she dances around naked on the barstool with like a lamp
00:46:02.260 shade or something on her head.
00:46:03.240 And her friends are getting, you know, have it on film and all that's funny and all.
00:46:07.080 And then 25, 30 years later, she's running for Congress and then it says, you're going
00:46:11.880 to vote for anything that I see once and, and shows her her dancing.
00:46:15.720 And, you know, when she was a young lady, uh, naked on the barstool or on the bar top
00:46:20.860 and it's stuff, you know, it's silly things like that or, or whatever the case may be,
00:46:26.080 or, you know, um, who knows, maybe, maybe she just needs an awakening or, um, she just,
00:46:34.620 she's getting pressure from all different points.
00:46:37.760 I don't know, but she's, it seems to be a little bit of a disappointment.
00:46:41.340 I mean, I had high hopes for her originally because of all her great works down there in
00:46:45.960 Florida, but who knows what's going on?
00:46:48.000 Yeah, you're absolutely right.
00:46:50.340 And, uh, you know, it kind of scared me a little bit when she was, uh, tapped by president
00:46:54.460 Trump because she's on Sean Hannity show every night.
00:46:57.040 And Lindsey Graham's also on Sean Hannity show every single night.
00:47:00.260 And we know what he's capable of and what he's not capable of doing.
00:47:03.900 And it's not being a good center is what he's capable of.
00:47:07.340 Um, you know, it just, it scares the hell out of me, Russ, that this is what we're going
00:47:11.080 to deal with for the next four years.
00:47:12.380 It's going to be the same thing that happened in 2016 to 2020, president Trump's going to
00:47:18.100 have these people undermine him.
00:47:19.600 President Trump is going to be on a phone call with somebody.
00:47:21.860 Somebody's going to record the phone call impeachment.
00:47:24.480 Here we go all over again.
00:47:26.080 We're going to waste six months on an impeachment.
00:47:28.480 There we go.
00:47:29.200 Boom.
00:47:30.240 Impeachment doesn't pass.
00:47:31.580 Okay.
00:47:31.900 But we wasted six months.
00:47:33.020 President Trump hasn't done anything in six months, you know, and then just rinse and
00:47:37.700 repeat to the same exact thing.
00:47:39.220 I mean, it's just mind blowing to me that we're finding ourselves, Russ, in the same
00:47:45.160 situation that we found ourselves in 2016 to 2020, the same exact people surrounding him.
00:47:53.140 Now, don't get me wrong.
00:47:54.120 He's got a lot of good people who are surrounding him.
00:47:56.040 Stephen Miller among the best.
00:47:58.260 He's got a lot of good people around him who have the America first agenda in mind, have
00:48:02.920 the America first agenda, and they're pushing it.
00:48:06.180 But as we saw with the FBI, Russ, all it takes is one bad apple to turn the damn card around
00:48:12.280 and to spoil the rest of them.
00:48:15.960 You know, I don't know.
00:48:17.040 I really just don't know how we turn this thing around.
00:48:20.460 Like I said, four years is a very short time, but it's really only two years because we have
00:48:26.100 this thing.
00:48:27.020 We have an election coming up for Congress.
00:48:28.720 I want to turn to some of the Democrats, Russ, some of these Marxist Dems, Congressman or
00:48:36.680 Senator Adam Smith from Washington.
00:48:39.680 He sits on the House Armed Services Committee ranking member, says that now this is going
00:48:45.860 back to the Houthis, the whole basis of this group chat, that designating them terrorist
00:48:52.920 organization only makes them more powerful, Russ.
00:48:57.300 So now the Republicans are lost, but the Democrats are just out there.
00:49:03.740 Your thoughts?
00:49:07.460 Well, I think the Democrats are digging their own hole, you know, with some of the things
00:49:12.020 they're saying.
00:49:12.760 And now it all seems to be, you know, the cursing and the potty mouths and things that are not
00:49:20.320 even veiled threats anymore.
00:49:21.700 We're going to take Elon Musk down and we're going to beat him over the head and going
00:49:28.760 after, you know, it used to be electric vehicles where all the liberals had to have one because
00:49:37.800 they were virtue signaling the fact that they're good for the economy or whatever, which I can
00:49:43.100 make an argument against.
00:49:43.960 But depending on how the lithium gets mine, a lot of the other things, but it's like now
00:49:51.120 all of a sudden, you know, he stands up for free speech and he's he's the enemy.
00:49:55.120 So, I mean, it's so obvious.
00:49:58.420 That the demon crats and apparently there's just a couple of them that want to sit back
00:50:03.520 and go, gee, you know, maybe we should change our modem operandi because we're getting our
00:50:10.360 cabooses spanked.
00:50:12.780 But the rest of them, you know, I mean, it looks like what AOC, what's her name?
00:50:17.940 The pretty little girl from Sandy Cortez.
00:50:23.680 Let's test her county.
00:50:24.680 I mean, she's she's cute enough and all.
00:50:28.620 And I'm sure she she'd serve me a good rusty nail, you know, as a bartender.
00:50:33.160 But what does she know about politics and what does she know about her mouth?
00:50:39.640 I just I just I think the people up there at Boston College got to be shaking their head
00:50:44.580 going, oh, my gosh, we graduated this girl with an economics degree.
00:50:48.040 Yeah.
00:50:49.000 But, you know, let let let them dig their own hole.
00:50:51.620 Oh, you know, when when someone's digging their own hole, you know, don't stop them
00:50:56.040 and throw them another shovel.
00:50:57.360 So, yeah, let's get some shiny shovels and throw in the pit for them.
00:51:02.240 They keep digging.
00:51:03.280 Russ, I used to have a teacher at high school.
00:51:05.820 His name was Arnie Mattson, a really good dude.
00:51:08.140 If you could sing the Ave Maria, you got an automatic A.
00:51:10.660 Now, this is a Catholic all boys high school.
00:51:14.940 So for what it's worth, if you can sing the Ave Maria, you got a you got an A.
00:51:19.920 If you can if you were tall enough to touch the 15 foot ceiling in the classroom, you
00:51:23.760 got an A plus.
00:51:25.380 And if you could do 100 pushups, you got an A plus in the class.
00:51:28.400 But he used to say you give the man enough rope, he'll hang himself.
00:51:33.060 And I think that's just exactly what the Democrats have done.
00:51:36.660 Latest approval rating out today from our good friends at Rasmussen, Mark Mitchell.
00:51:40.960 By the way, big shout out to Mark Mitchell of Rasmussen, my good friend John McLaughlin
00:51:47.280 of McLaughlin Associates, and Robert Cahaley of Trafalgar Group.
00:51:52.320 They are in the top 10 of the 2024 most valuable pollsters in this country in a business where
00:51:58.640 honesty is integral.
00:52:00.700 These folks taking the cake.
00:52:03.720 Good good dudes.
00:52:04.980 So congratulations to them.
00:52:06.080 But Russ, 26 percent approval in the Democratic Party right now, you can get better approval
00:52:13.760 ratings, I think, for Vladimir Putin, who most people see as a killer.
00:52:19.480 And it's falling, you know, you got a lot of young people, I think, are starting to young
00:52:24.800 men are starting to wake up.
00:52:26.880 I think the gals have come along sooner or later.
00:52:29.340 You got a lot of minorities that are coming around that, you know, these Democrats, they
00:52:37.720 say we're going to do this and this for you.
00:52:40.500 And then nothing ever happens.
00:52:42.960 It's always a false, you know, statement or a false claim or, you know, a false item that
00:52:50.800 they're supposed to be coming up with.
00:52:52.920 And people are waking up.
00:52:54.540 And once again, we have people like yourself that are finally out there that are able to
00:52:59.060 break the, you know, that ceiling or whatever that was keeping news just in a small, basic
00:53:10.200 echo chamber that the three networks had for so long.
00:53:15.640 Yeah, you're absolutely right.
00:53:16.980 The glass ceiling is what I put it.
00:53:18.960 Before we wrap up, Russ, I want to get your take.
00:53:21.780 Today, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals blocked President Trump's administration from deporting,
00:53:26.820 as I said, those gang members via the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.
00:53:30.960 Also happening this week, Pete Hegseth has ordered troops at the U.S.
00:53:34.440 southern border to begin conducting patrol and dissuade people from considering entering this
00:53:39.280 country illegally.
00:53:41.780 I mean, it seems the southern border is the only thing that's getting fixed so far in this
00:53:47.920 administration so far, aside from, obviously, President Trump and all the good stuff
00:53:51.720 he's doing, you know, some of his other folks, Tom Holman, among the best.
00:53:57.760 What's your thoughts about the military running missions, per se, at the southern border, trying
00:54:04.320 to get this thing under control?
00:54:07.560 Well, we mentioned this last time that the president of Mexico has given, you know, an
00:54:13.340 OK on some of this.
00:54:15.380 And I'm a little bit hesitant to, you know, to make incursions into another sovereign country,
00:54:22.840 because technically that's an act of war.
00:54:27.220 You know, our Constitution says that, you know, we need Congress to declare a war before we go
00:54:33.200 to war, but I think we can honestly say, just like Jefferson went after the Barbary pirates,
00:54:41.400 that this is an act that's meant to go after, and plus they're non-nation entities,
00:54:49.600 these thugs, the traffickers on the border, that we have a precedent that we can go after them,
00:54:57.280 and I'm all for it.
00:55:01.060 Let's go make an example of some of them, and the rest of them will turn tail and run away
00:55:09.300 and hide.
00:55:10.180 Yeah, we got to shut this thing down one way or another, Russ.
00:55:14.260 The southern border has been perhaps one of the biggest issues this country has faced,
00:55:19.560 at least in my lifetime, maybe in yours.
00:55:23.000 And finish the wall.
00:55:24.180 Finish the wall, you know.
00:55:25.560 Yeah, finish the wall.
00:55:26.320 Get her done.
00:55:27.760 A comment from YouTube, Vladimir Putin killed less people than FEMA did in North Carolina
00:55:32.020 and less than Vladimir Zelensky.
00:55:34.660 That's a conversation for another day with Zelensky and the mess that he has caused for his country
00:55:39.340 and how many people have died under his watch, a war that he wants to continue to fight
00:55:43.620 and continue to keep going for whatever reason.
00:55:46.880 We don't know.
00:55:48.060 Russ, you get the last word here as we wrap up.
00:55:52.600 Last word.
00:55:53.480 Well, our main topic here is the intel service and the fact that they're not kind of living
00:56:00.200 up to their expectations.
00:56:03.380 I think the saving grace is President Trump himself.
00:56:07.320 He has a reputation, and especially after what he's gone through in the last four years in
00:56:11.500 his first term, that I don't think he's going to put up with this kind of incompetence
00:56:17.360 or the fact that the snipes haven't been rounded up in the intel service and other places.
00:56:24.680 And he's known to fire people.
00:56:26.940 And if that's what it takes, then sometimes you have to let people go and find somebody
00:56:33.120 else that's willing to do the job.
00:56:35.680 So, but, you know, it's only been, it's been a little over two months.
00:56:39.040 So perhaps we haven't given enough of a deference of time to give these people a chance.
00:56:48.000 So, you know, but like you said, you know, time is ticking and, you know, you get the
00:56:55.080 impeachments or whatever, and all of a sudden the time is gone and nothing's gotten done.
00:56:59.560 So I think there's a fine line there that the president himself has to determine because
00:57:04.980 he's certainly not as naive as he was when he first became president.
00:57:12.220 Yeah, you're absolutely right.
00:57:13.860 Russ Tice, thanks so much for joining us tonight here on The Great America Show.
00:57:16.720 So we'll talk to you soon, my friend.
00:57:19.320 Folks, Russ Tice, a great American, really, you know, doesn't have to be doing what he's
00:57:24.620 doing.
00:57:24.920 He came out whistleblower, and you've seen what they've done to whistleblowers.
00:57:29.600 You've seen what they've done to Russ.
00:57:31.120 He's a great American, and we always appreciate him joining us here on The Great America Show
00:57:34.760 and his insightfulness and everything he brings to the table for us to learn.
00:57:40.660 Folks, we hope to see you back here tomorrow for The Great America Show.
00:57:43.920 Our guest is going to be Laura Loomer.
00:57:45.760 Laura, she's the one who's broken the story on this fella inside the NSC and everything
00:57:51.440 he's doing.
00:57:51.960 She's also uncovering a story about Secret Service being provided to Hunter Biden still
00:57:58.680 even after President Trump said it's no more.
00:58:02.220 So we're going to get all that from Laura tomorrow here on The Great America Show.
00:58:05.200 We hope you'll join us for that tomorrow and each and every day for The Great America Show,
00:58:08.740 folks.
00:58:09.460 Until then, may God bless you.
00:58:11.400 May God bless America.
00:58:12.440 And may God bless The Great, Lou Dobbs.
00:58:14.560 We'll see you tomorrow, folks.
00:58:15.340 We'll see you tomorrow.
