00:01:46.540This is the Stone Zone with Roger Stone.
00:01:50.260People love him and respect him. Roger Stone.
00:01:52.600Now, get in the zone. It's the Stone Zone. Here's Roger Stone.
00:01:59.940Welcome into the Stone Zone. Well, it looks to me like Geraldo Rivera just got busted.
00:02:06.880Back in 2018, Geraldo Rivera blasted President Donald Trump for his criticism of Haiti when Trump said that Haiti was an S-hole country.
00:02:17.620But now, when the courts have ruled that President Trump can legally return as many as 160,000 to 180,000 Haitians who are in the United States illegally back to their home country,
00:02:32.780Geraldo blasts Trump saying that sending them back to Haiti is like sending them to hell.
00:02:39.660So this is kind of par for the course for Geraldo Rivera.
00:02:44.200I have a great Geraldo Rivera story that I have to reveal to you.
00:02:48.620You see, Lyndon Baines Johnson, LBJ, had a mistress named Madeline Brown.
00:02:55.000Madeline Brown bore Lyndon Johnson a son, Stephen Brown.
00:03:00.040If you saw a photo of Stephen Brown, you can see he is indisputably the son of Lyndon Johnson,
00:03:05.500who was not the most handsome guy who ever came along.
00:03:08.480The reason that Madeline Brown is significant, however, is because she came forward in an interview with Geraldo Rivera to say that on the night of November 21st, 1963, she spent the night with Lyndon Johnson in a Fort Worth hotel.0.57
00:03:27.420And it was that night and the following morning that LBJ told his mistress, Madeleine Brown, after tomorrow, I won't have to deal with those Kennedy SOBs ever again.
00:03:40.620The following morning, he reiterated the same thing, although this time he said, I'll never have to deal with those Irish SOBs again.0.90
00:03:50.020and he said that's not a promise, that's not a threat, it's a promise,0.92
00:04:37.160This was part of my being ostracized and being a target of the mother of witch hunts,
00:04:43.980so I was a little less famous than I am today.
00:04:46.600And I congratulated him on this incredible piece of investigative journalism, which he, Geraldo Rivera, had located and interviewed the mistress of Lyndon Johnson, again, whose son looks exactly like LBJ, in this amazing interview.
00:05:06.140He looked at me very blankly and said he had no idea what I was talking about.
00:05:12.240I said, your interview with Madeleine Brown.
00:05:19.140Then he locked himself in the men's room and wouldn't come out until after I did my segment and I left.
00:05:26.200So, Geraldo Rivera, I remember the big hype about Al Capone's safe.
00:05:31.300That turned out to be a fraud as well.
00:05:33.780I really think that Geraldo goes for the clicks at this point, but he's now been busted twice, as far as I'm concerned.
00:05:42.740Yesterday I went online and I said New Jersey tomatoes are the best in the nation.
00:05:47.940It's amazing the backlash that I got from people as far away as Alabama, Arkansas, and elsewhere.
00:05:54.560But the truth is, New Jersey tomatoes are legendary for a reason.
00:05:58.180You see, New Jersey tomatoes have that perfect balance of sweetness and acidity with a deep, almost, I don't know, meaty flavor that shines in everything, whether you use it in a sandwich or a sauce.
00:06:10.240I guess it is the Garden State's sandy soil and coastal climate give us a real edge if you're growing tomatoes.
00:06:17.800And the shorter time from vine to table means they're picked ripe, not shipped green like some of the tomatoes you get in a grocery store.
00:06:24.220People call them Jersey tomatoes for a reason.
00:06:26.800They're absolutely special, and I'm not standing down on my defense of the New Jersey tomato.
00:06:34.760Also incredible news today, but fitting in a pattern, we learned days ago that the FBI had opened a counterintelligence investigation into Donald Trump.
00:06:45.520Immediately after he fired FBI Director James Comey, Comey used to refer to the FBI as my FBI, not recognizing the FBI belongs to the American taxpayers.
00:06:57.140We now know that they had no probable cause, no evidence that would indicate a legal rationale for the opening of that investigation, and they even called it Oxford, O-X-F-E-R-D.
00:07:15.160They misspelled the name of the operation so that the documents would be hard to find in their filing system.
00:07:21.720But it was, once again, an incredible act of lawfare.
00:07:27.800But what we learned today is even more shocking.
00:07:30.640You see, remember, there could never have been the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller,
00:07:35.460who tried to destroy the Trump presidency, as well as my life and my family, along with General Flynn,
00:07:41.660if the Attorney General Jeff Sessions, appointed by Donald Trump,
00:07:46.960had not recused himself from the Russian investigation,
00:07:50.780leaving Rod Rosenstein, the Deputy Attorney General,
00:07:54.020one of the principal actors in the efforts to destroy Trump,
00:07:56.840a guy appointed to the office of Deputy Attorney General,
00:08:03.540on the advice of White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus,
00:08:09.280Rosenstein later actually got caught saying that he was willing to wear a wire in a conversation with President Trump in an effort to entrap him in the Russian collusion.
00:08:20.500We now learn today, based on newly declassified documents, that the FBI opened an investigation into a sitting attorney general and informed him he was being investigated over conversations that he, as a U.S. senator, had had with the Russian ambassador.
00:08:41.920And on that basis, out of fear, Jeff Session recused himself, which in turn allowed Rod Rosenstein to become the acting attorney general in the matters of Russian collusion, for which he then appointed Robert Mueller and the whole witch hunt went down.
00:09:00.880You can say it as many times as you want, liberals online do. There was no evidence whatsoever of Russian collusion or interference or at least coordination with the Trump campaign in 2016. The whole thing is a fraud.
00:09:16.160It is the greatest single dirty trick in American political history, certainly the single greatest abuse of power in which the full authority of the United States government, the full legal authority, was used to destroy a sitting president, utilizing two pieces of evidence that they knew were fraudulent.
00:09:35.560The so-called Steele dossier paid for by Hillary Clinton and her campaign.
00:09:41.760She later paid a multi-hundred thousand dollar plus fine for that illegal action because she tried to hide it as legal fees.
00:09:49.300And also the false claim that the Russians had hacked the Democratic National Committee and that information ended up in the hands of WikiLeaks.
00:09:58.460A claim to which to this day there is still no forensic evidence or proof whatsoever.
00:10:03.420A claim essentially invented by John Brennan and the folks at the CIA.
00:10:10.420So every single week now, whether it is last week, whether it is this week,
00:10:15.200with this news that the FBI's number two man, Andrew McCabe,
00:10:18.980had opened an investigation into a sitting attorney general in order to pressure him
00:10:23.500to recuse himself so that they could clear the way to appoint Mueller,
00:10:27.420who would then spend three years trying to destroy Donald Trump.
00:10:29.940There is no evidence of Russian collusion. And when you go at those who defend the Mueller investigation today, like Andrew Weissman, who was the de facto head of the Mueller investigation, since Mueller himself was at that point non-compos mentis, he was really around the bend.
00:10:49.580And they'll say, oh, no, Paul Manafort shared Trump campaign polling data with a Russian intelligence officer whose name was Konstantin Kalimnik.
00:11:06.240There's only one problem with that, and that is that the Trump campaign had no proprietary poll information at that point.
00:11:12.880Their pollster right after the convention, Tony Fabrizio, had not gone into the field to take in any polls.
00:11:18.520So any information Manafort would have shared with Kalimnik would have been public polling information, hardly proprietary, but more importantly, Konstantin Kalimnik has never been a Russian intelligence asset.
00:11:30.820In fact, the independent journalist Matt Taibbi proved definitively that Konstantin Kalimnik was a U.S. intelligence asset.
00:11:41.880In fact, his name is redacted in all of the cables between our State Department and our embassy in Kyiv.
00:11:49.840So the real question still remains the most basic one, and that is, is anyone going to be held responsible for this incredible crime against the Constitution and this attempted coup d'etat, an attempt to destroy a sitting president?
00:12:06.700This is a continuing seditious conspiracy. Here's why I say it. It is born in a White House meeting in 2016, April of 2016, in the Obama White House, in a meeting in which Barack Hussein Obama himself is chairing.
00:12:26.480Joe Biden is there. FBI Director James Comey is there. CIA Director John Brennan is there. National Security Advisor Susan Rice is there. The Director of National Intelligence James Clapper is in the room.
00:12:43.380It is in that meeting that the Clinton plan, as it was known, the plan to falsely charge Donald Trump with Russian collusion was born, and it continues.
00:12:55.400It is it not only fuels the the appointment of Robert Mueller under the shady circumstances I just outlined, but it also spills over to two impeachment trials in the Senate.
00:15:38.640first of all they knew I had no passport so I wasn't a flight risk
00:15:41.860also I'm pretty recognizable thanks to them
00:15:44.980I wasn't a flight risk, but if I was a flight risk, why then, when I was arraigned at the Fort Lauderdale courthouse, did they not ask for any cash bond?
00:15:56.840So you can see just in that example how FBI Director James Comey and Roger Stone, who did nothing wrong, were treated completely and totally differently.
00:16:07.440So the question remains, is anybody going to be held responsible for these crimes?
00:16:12.840The New York Times says Trump is on a tear for revenge and retaliation.
00:16:36.620Frankly, many Republicans or many pro-Trump voters will not turn out this November.
00:16:42.080If there is not a demonstration of commitment when it comes to holding those who violated the law, those who perpetrated the Russian collusion hoax, are being held responsible.
00:16:53.580I'm Roger Stone. Had to get that off my chest. You're in the Stone Zone. Don't go away, because we'll be right back.
00:17:00.300The Stone Zone. Entertaining and informative.
00:19:01.580It's no small part to Sharf's, I think, adept legal maneuvering against the Biden era, lawfare attempts against the president where he represented President Trump.
00:19:12.220So I'm very pleased by Sharf's appointment.
00:19:14.940He's a very solid individual, and I wish him the very best.
00:19:19.000In the meantime, listen to Stone Zone.
00:21:22.200Yet AOC is presenting her own fertility treatment as part of a sweeping political narrative about life under President Donald Trump.
00:21:31.300Life under which, if anyone will look at the crime statistics in every major city in the country, things are measurably better.
00:21:40.220AOC also shared weird footage and details from the process on social media, arguing that women should have more information about fertility and their reproductive choices.
00:21:52.080There's nothing inherently political, I guess, about a woman choosing to preserve her fertility,0.61
00:21:57.600but AOC, already 37, perhaps be wiser for her to settle down and just have kids now,1.00
00:22:04.540instead of pushing socialist nonsense, utilizing her own fertility as the vehicle.
00:22:12.700Nevertheless, there's something voyeuristic and almost, I don't know, perverted about filming this process and making it public.0.99
00:22:19.080So AOC's determination to make Trump a simple character in the story is kind of stupid, but I guess it's to be expected.0.95
00:22:30.540The Democrats have so much Trump derangement syndrome that every personal, cultural, or medical issue has to be used to portray Republican governance as an existential threat to democracy.0.97
00:22:43.760When in fact those who are a threat to democracy are the liberals themselves, those who would limit our free speech and our free choice.
00:22:52.120AOC may call this move empowering, but this spectacle is more like a medical decision being shoehorned into an anti-Trump campaign message by a low IQ demagogue with stars in her eyes.
00:23:04.840What was shocking to me is a new Pew Research Center survey that was just produced, and it shows a deeply troubling finding.
00:23:15.66044% of Muslim Americans who were polled said they hold a favorable view of Hamas, the terrorist terror organization that has ruled Gaza, and spent decades waging war against Israel.
00:23:30.240That number should alarm Americans across the political spectrum, frankly. Hamas is not simply a controversial political movement or a generic resistance organization. It has a long record of terrorism, including suicide bombings, rocket attacks, kidnappings, and the deliberate targeting of Israeli citizens.
00:23:51.860Its October 7, 2023 assault on Israel included some of the most brutal mass killings, hostage-taking, and triggered the devastating war that followed.
00:24:03.340Yet Pew's May 2026 poll found that Hamas was viewed favorably by nearly half of the Muslim respondents in America, compared with just 10% of Americans overall.
00:24:15.480law. Interestingly, among Jewish respondents, only two percent viewed Hamas favorably. I guess you
00:24:21.820would expect that. Among white evangelical Protestants, the number was four percent.
00:24:27.680This, I think, demonstrates the vast difference in values between us and those in the Muslim0.99
00:24:34.200American community. When Muslims enter into a country, they don't do it to assimilate,1.00
00:24:39.240unlike the Irish or the Hungarians or the Italians or the Poles0.98
00:24:44.660or even the Asians who have assimilated when they come here.0.95
00:24:50.120When they come to the United States, they bring their own values1.00
00:24:52.800and they have the mentality of conquerors,
00:24:55.300not those who wish to join our country and become Americans.
00:24:59.600They are at war with the Judeo-Christian underpinnings of our nation and our civilization.0.65
00:25:05.060Admiration for Hamas is morally indefensible under any circumstances.
00:25:09.980This is a terrorist movement responsible for massacres, hostage-taking, and decades of attacks on civilians,
00:25:16.180and it deserves nothing but condemnation, not rehabilitation, not romanticization or excuses.0.83
00:25:23.740The fact that American Muslims do not agree shows that we are diametrically opposed,0.82
00:25:28.640The compromise is, in fact, untenable, and we must make sure that they never get a demographic advantage over us in our own homeland, which, of course, I think was the whole purpose of Joe Biden's open border policy.0.92
00:25:44.680We may have taken as many as 30 million illegals into the country.0.92
00:25:51.620I remember in the 2016 campaign, President Trump briefly said that he would put a stop, a hold on all Muslim immigration into the country.0.98
00:26:02.540I wish he had done so during his first term.1.00
00:26:07.180Now, what is interesting is AOC would have us believe that things are terrible in the United States, but that's not really the truth.
00:26:15.600After one year, Donald Trump's launched a sweeping federal crime crackdown in Washington, D.C., for example.
00:26:21.820Numbers are hard to ignore, and the critics of his use of the National Guard in D.C. have been effectively silenced.
00:26:29.920The Make D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force has now made up more than 16,000 arrests since August of 2025, according to administration officials today.
00:26:41.420This includes 35 homicide suspects, more than 100 known gang members, and over 3,200 narcotics arrests.
00:26:49.460Authorities also seized nearly 2,000 illegal firearms and located 25 missing children.
00:26:56.240See, this is what law and order looks like when a government actually decides to enforce the law.
00:27:01.680President Trump's decision to surge federal agents and the National Guard deployment
00:27:08.040was immediately attacked by everyone in the Democratic Party
00:27:11.340and their handmaidens in the mainstream media who warned the move was unnecessary.
00:27:21.260But the administration says the crackdown has helped drive down violent crime, restore dangerous offenders from the streets, and restore order in the nation's capital.
00:27:31.420I can tell you that when I have recently visited Washington, D.C., it is cleaner, quieter, and safer than it has ever been.
00:27:40.940It's interesting that when you actually poll the residents of D.C., who are overwhelmingly African-American, even they, by huge numbers, say the city is safer and cleaner than it was prior to this crackdown by President Trump.
00:28:00.240It's interesting, the whole Trump crusade against crime came after a string of high-profile violent crimes,
00:28:07.260including the killing of a congressional intern and other attacks that really intensified concern about public safety in our nation's capital.
00:28:15.460I guess the lesson here is not complicated.
00:28:18.660When prosecutors prosecute, when the police are allowed to police, and when violent criminals face consequences, communities become safer.
00:28:26.260The Biden gang chose to empower and enable criminals.
00:28:31.420Leftist politicians pushed softer enforcement, reduced penalties and policies that often seemed more concerned with coddling the offenders than providing justice for the victims.
00:28:43.860New York's cashless bond system is a perfect example.
00:28:49.180President Trump took the opposite approach, law and order.
00:28:51.980After one year, his administration is pointing to thousands of arrests and countless weapons and pounds of drugs removed from the streets as evidence, and enforcing the law still works.
00:29:04.520President Trump needs to replicate this program in virtually every other major city across the country that have been devastated due to the Democrats.
00:29:13.960Meanwhile, former President Barack Obama is apparently ready to help unite Democrats behind one of the party's most far-left Senate nominees.
00:29:23.540Former President Barack Obama held what was described as an encouraging phone call Friday with Michigan Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed discussing the November elections and ways to bring the party together behind El-Sayed's campaign.
00:29:40.020That matters because El Sayed has backed abolishing ICE, Medicare for All, paid for by you and I, and ending all U.S. aid to Israel, as well as abolishing the Electoral College and the U.S. Senate.
00:29:56.120Positions that any common sense voter should see as extreme.0.63
00:30:02.900And I imagine positions that will get highlighted as Michigan voters decide who will represent them in the Senate.
00:30:08.700Now, Obama's involvement suggests that Democrat leaders are moving very quickly from bruising primaries like the ones they had here, in which El-Sayed very narrowly defeated Congresswoman Haley Stevens, who was a more, I wouldn't say mainstream, but a more conventional establishment liberal Democrat,
00:30:29.420had the support of the sitting governor, Gretchen Whitmire,
00:30:34.440had the support of the outgoing Senator Gary Peters,
00:30:38.660had the support of the powerful United Auto Workers,
00:30:46.140It's very clear that this is going to be one of the key Senate races in the country.
00:30:51.220Republicans have nominated former Congressman Mike Rogers
00:30:54.380in what is a crucial election contest.
00:30:58.100The problem, of course, is that Stevens has already circled the wagons around El-Sahed.
00:31:02.800It now appears that most of the mainstream Democrats will be doing the same.
00:31:07.800For Republicans, it shouldn't come as no surprise that Barack Obama and Abdul El-Sahed have a lot in common.
00:31:13.980Obama persuaded the American people that he was a moderate.
00:31:16.860He hid his radical agenda nearly 20 years after Obama's elected president.
00:31:22.080El-Sahed doesn't have to hide his extremism.
00:31:24.320He is much more upfront about his hatred of America and his wishes to see it transformed into something it is not.
00:31:32.660Al-Sayed, he's the natural progression of the Democrat Party that embraced Obama.
00:31:38.440We need to end this man's political career before he proves to be as destructive to our national policies as Obama was, or even worse.0.66
00:31:45.560The problem, as we have discussed, is that many voters look at the promises of a Mamdami, the promises of an Al-Sayed, the way they looked at the promises of Barack Obama.
00:31:58.920Hope and change without much specificity.
00:32:13.180Well, there is no such thing as a free lunch.
00:32:17.080The Democrat Party has enormous problems going into this election in their radicalization.
00:32:23.320But as I said the other day in an interview, it is not enough just to say, oh, they're socialists or they're Marxists and expect that to repel people.
00:32:34.360Part of our problem is that younger voters in this country who have never been taught anything about history don't understand the harsh lessons of socialism.
00:32:43.180They don't understand the gulag that was created in China or Russia or Cuba.
00:32:51.300They don't understand that this leaves in the end to oppression, poverty, and when you get right down to it, death.
00:33:00.320So I do think the Republicans and Trump's instincts to pit this as a contest between democracy and authoritarian Marxism is correct.
00:33:14.700But you have to lay out for people what the result of those high tax, soft on crime, defund the police, do away with the criminal justice system, do away with our penitentiaries.
00:33:28.720These are all in the Democratic Socialists for America platform, so it's there for all Americans to see.
00:33:38.100And as I have said many times and say it yet again, the old Democrat Party, the party of Harry Truman, the party of John F. Kennedy and Robert Kennedy, both ardent anti-communist,
00:33:50.400the party of Ed Koch, the party of Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, that Democrat Party no longer exists.
00:33:58.720Right now, wherever he is, Chuck Schumer is sweating bullets about the fact that AOC may challenge him for a U.S. Senate seat he has had for decades.
00:34:09.200And if she does challenge him, he knows that he will lose.
00:34:13.320So the corporate liberal Democrats, you can't call them moderates because they're not moderates.
00:34:18.840The corporate liberal Democrats are scared to death because they see their party being taken over wholesale by radical socialists who have a radical agenda and no longer hide it.
00:34:31.800That will be the face of the Democrat Party going into these midterm elections.
00:34:36.380And that is why those who insist the Republicans will definitely lose both houses, I believe, are completely and totally wrong.
00:36:28.660If biological sex is no longer the decisive standard for women's athletics, where exactly is that line?
00:36:36.680I think the league now will find itself in a very rough spot.0.61
00:36:40.700They could just reject white and canter outright, and officials could face uncomfortable questions about what standards they are using to determine who qualifies for women's competition.0.56
00:36:51.820If they entertain their claim, the absurdity of allowing former NBA-caliber male athletes into a women's game becomes impossible to ignore.0.89
00:37:01.780They'll wipe the floor with all the women players, even though both of them have been out of the NBA for many years and are actually no longer in their primes.
00:37:10.240Controversy comes as the WNBA is already facing growing scrutiny over this issue.
00:37:15.800Indiana Fever player Sophie Cunningham has publicly criticized allowing transgendered identifying athletes, men, into women's competition,
00:37:25.840while Commissioner Kathy Engelbert recently told teams that the league would hold additional discussions and listening sessions on the matter.
00:37:35.260This announcement by the former NBA players, White and Cantor, may just be a troll.
00:37:41.140But it might be very interesting to see how far they decide to take it.
00:37:44.560If they suit up with WNBA, the comedy potential here is undeniable.0.98
00:37:51.960And it will be a national scene in which people understand the idiocy, the lunacy of men playing in women's professional sports.0.92
00:38:02.340I want to thank you for joining us today in the Stone Zone where we talk politics, news, history, style, and food five days a week. Until tomorrow, God bless you and Godspeed.0.99
