Jane Roe v. Wade has been the focus of much of the country s attention for the past week and a half, and there is no doubt that more is coming. In this episode of The John Henry Weston Show, former CIA officer Sam Faddis joins us to talk about what we should be looking out for, and what we can expect.
00:00:00.000Nothing can exist between the state and the individual. That is the hallmark of Marxism, communism, totalitarian governments. You have to be powerless as an individual. They don't want you to be raised by your family. They certainly don't want you to have a God you rely on.
00:00:17.380You have all heard the breaking news now that Jane's revenge has been threatening with real threats. Talking about how the firebombing at crisis pregnancy centers, I guess, wasn't enough. They're saying more is coming. And that's been predicted. You know, we've got someone with us today who is a former CIA officer. He's looked into what could be coming and what we can expect.
00:00:47.380You're going to want to stay tuned for this episode of The John Henry Weston Show.
00:01:11.360Thank you for having me. Pleasure to be here.
00:01:13.560Let's begin, as we always do, with the sign of the cross.
00:01:15.300In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
00:01:22.040Sam, maybe you can start with telling us a little bit about your background.
00:01:26.560I'm a former U.S. Army officer, and then I spent 20 years undercover in the Central Intelligence Agency as an operations officer, which means an operator abroad in the Middle East and South Asia, primarily.
00:01:39.700And another decade after that, working with other elements of the intelligence community.
00:01:46.660These days, I do a lot of national security commentary.
00:01:50.620Also run an online magazine called And Magazine at Substack.
00:01:55.540Spend a lot of time trying to tell truth about things that doesn't seem like most people want to talk about.
00:02:00.240So now we have a situation in the United States that's unfolding, probably been here for a long, long time, but it's unfolding now in earnest.
00:02:10.020We've seen very strange things from law enforcement not engaging where you'd think, obviously, we've had over 23 crisis prevention centers attacked, vandalized.
00:02:22.780Tell us, in your opinion, from your vast background, what's going on here, and what does the public really need to know?
00:02:29.280To start with, what the public needs to understand, and probably a great deal of the public suspects, but again, it sort of gets put into the Maxwell Smart cone of silence, and we just don't talk about it,
00:02:40.680is that we're looking at violence that has really been ongoing, you know, since the infamous summer of love when cities were being burned.
00:02:49.740And it is being perpetuated by, it's being financed, directed, organized by, I mean that exactly the way I'm putting it,
00:02:59.660by Marxist, communist organizations in this country that have a very express agenda, and that agenda is to destroy the existing political, economic, and social structure of this country.
00:03:17.200And, you know, if that sounds like science fiction, well, it probably would have sounded that way to me a few years ago, too, but it is, in fact, true.
00:03:27.740And that is exactly what we're seeing right now in this run-up to what I'm afraid is going to be some very significant violence connected to Roe v. Wade and the whole abortion controversy.
00:03:41.120Not that we haven't already seen violence, as you indicated, but it's going to get a lot worse.
00:03:46.160What changed your mind? You said a few years ago, had someone told you about the sort of cabal you're talking about, you wouldn't have believed it.
00:03:53.840What moved you from that disbelief to an understanding that this is, in fact, the case?
00:03:57.820The process that I have gone through is probably a process that is familiar to many, many Americans, which is, there's not a light bulb that goes on over your head.
00:04:08.460Boom, there's an epiphany. Suddenly, I see clearly everything around.
00:04:12.940It happens in stages. You feel like you're awakening to a realization of what's happening, and you understand how bad it is.
00:04:19.920And then six months later, you think, good Lord, I didn't realize how bad it was at all.
00:04:27.700And the next year, you realize, wow, I'm still not grasping it.
00:04:32.560And for myself and my wife, who's also a retired CIA operations officer, I think this was enhanced by the fact that we spent such a large portion of our lives basically overseas.
00:04:43.500And if we were home, we were getting ready for the next assignment, so we weren't really focused on the states.
00:04:49.420We were getting ready to get through the training course, learn a new language, get back out to a new country.
00:04:53.760So it wasn't until we retired and really settled back into the states and sort of started living here full time again that we actually literally looked at each other one day in the kitchen.
00:05:05.240And we were talking about something and just paused and said, what happened to the country we were defending while we were gone?
00:05:12.640Like while we were out on the walls defending the republic, what has been happening here?
00:05:19.400Because all of a sudden you realize things, this is not the country I left decades and decades before.
00:05:29.440And again, it's just a series of events as you dig into it.
00:05:32.440And of course, I'm an intelligence officer.
00:05:33.880My whole job always was to get to the truth.
00:05:37.020You don't write the story you want to write.
00:05:39.420You write the story that the facts tell you to write, like a good investigative journalist.
00:05:44.060And when you follow the facts and just open your eyes and start running this down, you realize, wow, this is crystal clear.
00:05:52.780In fact, the only thing that's shocking is that nobody wants to talk about it.
00:05:57.220That you can cover burning cities and not mention the fact that an organization called the Revolutionary Communist Party USA is sponsoring.
00:06:07.880That seems like a pretty big deal that there's a Stalinist organization behind Milwaukee burning.
00:06:13.820And yet somehow nobody manages to mention it.
00:06:17.460If you were to say, in addition to that, so we can have sort of three major points of reference that for you point to this conclusion in a way that's really unassailable, what would the other two be?
00:06:31.220Look at the agenda, but also in tandem with that.
00:06:38.000In the case of these organizations, they don't hide this.
00:06:41.520When I'm writing about the organizing of violent actions in Washington, D.C. by Rise Up for Abortion Rights, for instance, and I say, as I have said repeatedly, it is a creation whole cloth of a Stalinist communist organization.
00:06:57.380I didn't have to go recruit a super secret spy to get inside the Revolutionary Communist Party in the United States.
00:07:03.220It's not like a three-year operation undercover like we're back in the agency.
00:07:09.300You know, you go find their website, and then you read their constitution for their new socialist republic, USA, and you watch a few YouTube videos where they're speaking in public in broad daylight.
00:07:24.000We're talking about abortion rights, for instance, whatever the heck that's supposed to mean exactly, but all of the verbiage associated with this is also, it's not just talking about a woman's right to choose, again, whatever exactly that's supposed to mean, but there's a full-on attack on what they call the patriarchy, right?
00:07:50.640It is an attack on every element of that, and as we have seen right out of the blocks in the last couple of months, an immediate attack upon religion, right?
00:08:03.080And not just because it coincidentally some center happened to be co-located with a Christian center.
00:08:11.480Expressly, they are targeting religion, and they denigrate it and destroy it.
00:08:16.240So I've spent a lot of time in my life working against Marxist organizations and crawling inside them and recruiting sources.
00:08:23.200So I have spent way more time than any human should ever have to spend listening to the madness of Marxist ideology, because that's how you do it.
00:09:07.380We have so far seen, since sort of even the hint of the ruling in Dobbs that might challenge Roe or might overturn Roe, the leak of the decision or of a preliminary kind of thing, draft decision.
00:09:26.060Already violence, as we mentioned at the outset, 23 crisis pregnancy centers, vandalized, attacked, four of them firebombed.
00:09:34.080We've seen the arrest of someone who really was attempted murder outside Kavanaugh's house.
00:09:42.000We've also seen churches disrupted, masses, where women disrobe and are naked running through the church, screaming, my body, my choice, whatever they yell.
00:09:55.060But you think there's going to be more, and it's going to get worse.
00:10:02.880First of all, let's remember that really you're looking at the same entities that organized the violence that we saw in our cities during the Trump presidency, that still celebrate on all of their websites the sacking of the third precinct in Milwaukee, where the cops were ultimately police officers forced to run for their lives.
00:10:24.520That's celebrated as like a glorious victory.
00:10:29.740So these are the same people that are now organized, exactly the same entities.
00:10:35.660And if you look at what they're saying online, they are expressly talking in terms of violence.
00:11:20.340This is expressly an occupied building, and they're detonating it, and they're celebrating that.
00:11:25.640The whole point is, this is what we want you to do.
00:11:29.380Keep in mind also, I mean, look, you know, you have a Homeland Security Department.
00:11:33.440That seriously keeps telling, I mean, they have time to go dedicate resources to the supposed threat of violence from parents who dare to show up at school board meetings, talking about why are you talking to my kid about transgender ideology?
00:12:02.740I mean, ideologically, this is, you know, it's hands-off for federal law enforcement investigation.
00:12:09.980So there's nobody working to tear this out.
00:12:11.740I mean, I can tell you as a guy who, my whole job was to crawl inside groups like Al-Qaeda and so forth and recruit sources.
00:12:18.660I mean, this ought to be an easy day for the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
00:12:22.000If they could tear apart the mafia and the Ku Klux Klan, they can sure beat up Antifa and all of these guys if anybody gave them the direction to do so.
00:12:31.380But they're being told to leave them alone and walk away.
00:12:34.580So what you have is a rising threat level, and they've been given a free hand.
00:12:37.800That speaks, of course, to a deep corruption that is beyond kind of an even ideological stance on abortion.
00:12:50.440That speaks to the readiness to undermine American civilization as a whole that would have to be coming from the highest echelons of power.
00:13:01.660As a journalist, what's your evidence?
00:13:03.040My evidence is that all you have to do is look at them and you will see that it is happening, right?
00:13:09.400I mean, we have a Department of Homeland Security that answers directly to the President of the United States.
00:13:16.720What are the orders being given to the Department of Homeland Security?
00:13:20.640Like, I don't have to guess what they're doing behind closed doors and kind of ferret this out.
00:13:25.840I mean, literally, we have seen bulletins come out from the Department of Homeland Security saying we need to focus on the rising threat from parents at school board meetings and threats to school institutions.
00:13:38.620OK, I'm involved in a lot of stuff on a lot of different levels.
00:13:41.480I've been to a bunch of school board meetings, as I'm sure many viewers have, over the last year or two.
00:13:47.200I've seen people who are fired up about their kids.
00:13:49.360I've never seen anybody come within 10 miles of threatening violence, engaging in violence.
00:15:11.700Even the corruption of their very leaders, them using the millions of dollars to buy their own mansions and give mansions to their parents and whatnot.
00:15:27.460I mean, most of these groups are sick, honestly, in my opinion.
00:15:30.360But when you have an organization like Black Lives Matter that capitalizes on the fact that there are massive legitimate problems in huge chunks of the Black community in the United States still for a whole variety of reasons.
00:15:46.720And instead of focusing on that and using that money and working to do something meaningful to improve the lives of every kid in West Baltimore who's trying desperately not to get sucked into violence and gang activity.
00:16:03.980And instead, you buy mansions for yourself and pose as some kind of guerrilla leader.
00:16:11.960I think you're like sucking the lifeblood out of this and claiming you're representing these people.
00:16:17.380And in fact, all you're doing is greasing your own palm.
00:16:20.720And the first thing, of course, you do is go buy a mansion in an area that inevitably turns out to be 99% white after you've told everybody about how you're standing with these folks.
00:16:32.960There's some more corruption that's been pointed out.
00:16:35.700And I know that you've been writing about it as well.
00:16:39.440And that is the revelations from the Hunter Biden laptop.
00:16:43.420And what have they done, these new revelations?
00:16:47.200First of all, I should start with, what's your appreciation, given your background in the CIA, of the veracity of these reports?
00:16:59.580I mean, I should add that I have a copy of Hunter Biden's hard drive.
00:17:03.640I try desperately to avoid looking at images and video on it and focus on the substance of it, although it's a little hard given the way the hard drive is all fragmented.
00:17:12.140And there's immense evidence on there of Hunter's involvement in all kinds of nefarious and really distasteful things, whether we're talking sex, drugs, everything else in the world.
00:17:23.540To me, that's not really the central issue, though, right?
00:17:26.580I mean, to the extent it may, in fact, involve sex trafficking and the abuse of women and so forth.
00:17:34.900But the central issue here is the evidence that's on that laptop that shows the amount of money that has flowed into Hunter's hands.
00:17:45.620And in my opinion, without question, into the broader Biden enterprise, because from an American national security perspective, which is, you know, my bread and butter, that's the key issue, right?
00:17:59.300It's you have an enterprise that has been taking all this money.
00:18:03.320Joe is now sitting in the Oval Office.
00:18:06.640What did all of these people get in return for that money?
00:18:10.600I mean, a lot of this came from the Chinese Communist Party.
00:18:12.980They don't give away money for nothing.
00:18:15.620Hunter has no discernible skills other than snorting cocaine and running around with prostitutes, as far as I can tell.
00:18:22.080Nobody's paying Hunter Biden millions of dollars for his skills.
00:18:32.660They may be evil, but their heart knows.
00:18:35.080When you start forking over money, or as they did at one point in one transaction, handed Hunter $1.5 billion, you got to ask yourself, what did they get in return?
00:18:48.500Everybody talks about the potential to blackmail Joe Biden.
00:18:52.400Very few people talk about the fact that there's a strong possibility they bought Joe Biden a long time ago.
00:18:57.820Not a question of, theoretically, they could blackmail him at a future date.
00:19:02.520You got a guy sitting in the White House who has taken, at this point, we have no idea how much money from our number one enemy on the face of the earth.
00:19:39.240Now that I'm all bummed out, what am I supposed to do other than go home and sit on the couch and yell at the television?
00:19:45.300And my answer is always, just get up and do whatever you can.
00:19:50.800Like, you're not powerless and you don't have to fix it all by yourself.
00:19:56.000You don't have to go run for president or run for Senate.
00:19:59.020But everybody can identify something right in front of them that they can do.
00:20:04.580Start going to your school board meetings and pushing back on an agenda that is trying to teach your little boy that he's really a girl and your little girl that he's really a boy.
00:20:14.420And that they should owe their primary allegiance, put their faith in the government, not their father and mother.
00:20:28.020Just get back in the game and push back.
00:20:31.180Because, I mean, I would summarize for you.
00:20:33.940And the totality of this, I think, boils down to we, and I will put myself at the top of that list, kind of assumed that somebody else was taking care of all of this.
00:21:17.980How did we suddenly magically, I'm laughing, not because it's funny, because it's just so insane.
00:21:23.600How did we magically go in about a year from energy independence and gas at $2.50 a gallon or whatever it was to begging the Iranians to sell us gas, begging the Venezuelans for gas and paying, pushing six bucks now in a lot of places.
00:21:41.120I mean, you know, we lost control of our country.
00:21:45.980We're expecting any day the Dobbs ruling to be handed down.
00:21:50.100But presumably it will still overturn Roe v. Wade.
00:21:54.460The abortion argument will then move to the states.
00:21:58.140But you're suggesting there's going to be some major violence.
00:22:02.100What can parents do around the country to protect their families?
00:22:06.340First of all, demand that law enforcement take this seriously and get answers from people.
00:22:12.120But recognize, particularly if you have, I mean, if you're, if you go to church, if you are involved with your church, if you run any Christian associated, I'm using a very loose term, I understand, enterprise, you know, pregnancy counseling center, anything else that is identifiable connected to the Christian faith in particular.
00:22:33.680If you're not right now focused on the fact that this is a real security threat, you need to get focused right now.
