In this episode of The Stone Zone with Roger Stone, host Troy Smith and co-host Brad Squires discuss the latest in the ongoing case against President Trump by former federal judge Andrew Weissmann and his daughter, Lauren Wanberchan. They discuss the conflict of interest between the fact that her own father is presiding over a politically weaponized court case, and that her daughter is working with Democrats to raise money for them. They also discuss how the House of Representatives turned the case into a mudslinging match between Jasmine Crockett and Democratic Rep. Joe Biden, and how the entire episode was hijacked by the left to distract us from the real issue at hand, which is that President Trump is being used as a political weapon by the Democrats in order to advance their political agenda and get their name in front of the American public.

00:00:00.000The Stone Zone, with legendary Republican strategist and political icon and pundit, Roger Stone.
00:00:12.100Stone has served as a senior campaign aide to three Republican presidents.
00:00:16.380He is a New York Times bestselling author and a longtime friend and advisor of President Donald Trump.
00:00:22.020As an outspoken libertarian, Stone has appeared on thousands of broadcasts,
00:00:26.020spoken at countless venues, and lectured before the prestigious Oxford Political Union and the Cambridge Union Society.
00:00:33.040Due to his four-plus decades in the political and cultural arena, Stone has become a pop culture icon.
00:00:38.380And now, here's your host, Roger Stone.
00:00:44.080Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Troy Smith.
00:00:46.780I am your usual co-host today, filling in for Roger Stone here on The Stone Zone.
00:00:51.160I want to welcome you to the show, and I want to encourage you to follow us here on Rumble.com.
00:00:56.020slash Roger Stone, so you can catch us every single day here in The Stone Zone.
00:01:00.960Later on today, we have a very exciting guest who's running for Congress in the 11th District of Virginia,
00:01:06.480and we're excited to bring him on, and I can't wait to introduce that guest later in the show.
00:01:10.980But for today, we wanted to start off with some of the hot topic issues politically that are happening in the country.
00:01:17.600And I wanted to start with something that is incredibly important, because so often we see things that are important masked by things that really don't matter.
00:01:27.320And it's important because just like the left wanted to mask you during the COVID-19 pandemic,
00:01:32.220they want to mask the important political topics of the day.
00:01:36.020So I found it interesting that it was actually after Marjorie Taylor Greene talked about Judge Wanberchan's daughter in the House of Representatives
00:01:45.320that Jasmine Crockett, a Democrat representative, attacked her, calling her like a butch lesbian or something like that,
00:09:05.580Well, and then, folks, let's roll the headline from May 16th.
00:09:10.860Campbell County Sheriff's Office charges an illegal immigrant with raping a minor.
00:09:14.840And, yes, this is in Campbell County, Virginia.
00:09:17.900So while the Democrat elitist politicians and their mouthpieces in the mainstream media laugh at the American people for daring to care about immigration,
00:09:29.120for daring to care about who's coming into their country and what kind of malicious intent they might have,
00:09:35.600the people of Virginia are the ones who suffer.
00:09:38.200And as we see with that headline, I would point out when Jen Psaki was laughing at the people who said that immigration was their top issue heading into 2024,
00:09:50.860she was laughing at this poor minor who was raped by an immigrant.
00:09:54.360She was laughing at the families of the victims of people who have been murdered by illegal immigrants like Lakin Riley or as President Joe Biden would call her Lincoln Riley because he can't even say the name right.
00:10:08.960This is what the Democrat Party has become, ladies and gentlemen.
00:10:12.580It's almost unbelievable that they win anything.
00:10:16.760And I think that comes back to our elections and the problems that we have within our elections.
00:10:21.380And I think this is a fundamental issue that a lot of people are not addressing.
00:10:25.660The root cause of, and here's what it comes down to, folks, the root cause of election problems in this country are the people who work on the elections.
00:10:36.420The people that do the day-to-day election work, the poll workers, none of the fraud happens unless those people are in on it.
00:10:45.180The election administrators, the people who really control the votes,
00:10:49.200those people are the ones that allow people that believe that it's okay to laugh at the Virginia voter who's concerned about the southern border as minors are raped in the state by illegal immigrants.
00:11:02.140That's what allows these people to get into office.
00:11:04.440It's something that has to be addressed, and it's something that we simply have to keep hammering towards the election, folks,
00:11:10.480because the Democrats want to bust open that border forever.
00:11:15.020However, their answer was a bill in which millions of people would be permitted illegal entry into the country every single year,
00:12:39.240Mike Flannick told the truth and faced life in prison.
00:12:42.060Glutathione, I'm so excited that we have a fantastic delivery system for it, because glutathione is the master detoxifier and master antioxidant.
00:14:03.140Ladies and gentlemen, when it comes to the Democrats, it's important to point out that it all comes back to a man named Saul Alinsky, who Hillary Clinton wrote her senior thesis on.
00:14:17.340And Saul Alinsky created a book called Rules for Radicals in which he described the modern, basically the platform of the Democratic Party.
00:14:26.620And one of these rules that he consistently pushed throughout his career was a rule in which he told his disciples, his political disciples like Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, to accuse the other side of exactly what they were doing.
00:14:43.220Now, it's important to point this out because Saul Alinsky is not just some mythological figure that these people have read about.
00:14:49.900He's actually a living person who had ties to many Democrats who are in the House of Representatives today.
00:14:55.920One of those representatives is Jamie Raskin, whose father worked very closely with Saul Alinsky through several organizations.
00:15:04.580Now, we're going to play a clip from this weekend of Jamie Raskin ruthlessly attacking Donald Trump and all of his supporters, 80 million plus supporters, and basically disparaging Trump.
00:15:17.760And I wanted to point this out because what Raskin is talking about in this instance are fraud trials that have been raised by the Biden administration, who has been caught with their fingers and their hands in the cookie jar at every level.
00:15:32.180The Biden administration pushing these trials on every single level and Jamie Raskin in Congress, you know, saying this is why we can't have Donald Trump.
00:15:40.440So it's a manufactured witch hunt trial that has no basis in reality.
00:15:47.560We have everybody from Larry Kudlow to others just destroying the basis of this case on a daily basis.
00:15:55.040They bring up Stormy Daniels, who believes that she's a ghost medium, and Michael Cohen, a convicted liar, who is literally streaming on TikTok, collecting tips so that he can get money and make money off of being a witness in the Trump trial.
00:16:10.800While that's all going on, we have Jamie Raskin, whose father was a Saul Alinsky ally, propped up Alinsky, helped push his message out there, and to create the modern Democratic Party, using that fraud show trial to attack Donald Trump in Congress.
00:16:28.080Now, our originally scheduled performance was supposed to be at 11 a.m. today.
00:16:35.320But it was postponed when members of the majority chose to join a mass spiritual pilgrimage to the New York criminal trial of a Florida man, an adjudicated fraudster and rapist, as he faces 34 felony counts of falsifying corporate financial records to cover up $130,000 paid in hush money to a porn star sex partner.
00:16:58.180Now, although some people are churlishly complaining that members should actually be here to vote on public business and should not have forced a last-minute change in the committee schedule, our colleagues properly demonstrated for all of history their fierce devotion to this clearly reformed, devout, and pious Florida spiritual leader, who many supporters are now calling the Messiah from Mar-a-Lago.
00:17:24.140That, let's start with the basics. Sexual partners. Stormy Daniels wrote a letter to Donald Trump in which she stated that there was no sexual relationship between them.
00:17:36.340She's lied about that several other times, but if we want to get specific, she went on Bill Maher's show, and she actually said that she was not coerced, that there was a sexual relationship, and yet all of this, all of this, ladies and gentlemen, has not been allowed to be shown.
00:17:51.000In fact, Trump was held in contempt of court when he posted the letter from Stormy Daniels, in which he states there's no sexual relationship.
00:17:59.420He was held in contempt and fined by the court for having the balls to post the letter.
00:18:04.980So, they tied Trump's hands behind his back. He's not allowed to speak for himself, and this is what enrages Jamie Raskin.
00:18:12.100One, Trump represents truly the modern incarnation of the anti-communist political movement, and MAGA really is an anti-communist political movement.
00:18:25.380It's a movement dedicated to the American Republic.
00:18:28.740It's a movement that is dedicated to making America great again, and to pulling back the reins of world control from the communist Chinese.
00:18:38.600That's what this is about, and for Alinskyites who practice communism like Jamie Raskin, it's very inconvenient to have somebody like Donald Trump around, and it gets me into my next point about President Joe Biden and these trials.
00:18:56.620Now, they met with Fannie Willis. That's proven. That's been proven.
00:19:01.240Letitia James is a Democrat disciple who was elected saying, we're going to get Trump.
00:19:07.420And when you investigate Judge Engron or you investigate basically anybody but the Florida judge overseeing Trump's document case, you find ties to the Democrat establishment.
00:19:19.820And isn't it surprising that the only judge that doesn't have severe ties to the Democrat political complex is the only trial that's really going really well for President Trump, and the media is apoplectic about that.
00:19:34.080They are saying that the judge needs to be removed. They are really trying to intimidate the judge, kind of in a reverse psychology kind of thing.
00:19:42.820So it gets me into my next point. The Biden administration is behind these trials.
00:19:46.640Not only that, but the Biden DOJ is full throttle against President Trump right now, whether it be the documents case, whether it be Jack Smith in the January 6th case, which we're heading into.
00:19:57.860And the Biden administration, hand in the cookie jar. I mean, it is so obvious that they are behind these things.
00:20:05.500And yet they are following the Alinsky rule, the rules for radicals, the Jamie Raskin aligned Saul Alinsky and putting out disinformation.
00:20:15.940Here's President Joe Biden claiming that if President Trump were elected, he would use the DOJ to go after his political opponents.
00:20:24.320Wait, you mean like you? You mean like you, Joe Biden, where you've indicted Rudy Giuliani and you've indicted President Donald Trump and you've indicted all of these people who are your main political opposition?
00:20:35.600Let's roll the clip of liar President Joe Biden.
00:20:39.180Saying that what he's going to do is break the tradition of over 100 years.
00:20:43.660They're going to tell the attorney general who he should prosecute.
00:20:45.880They're going to prosecute. He's going to get his enemies.
00:20:48.800I mean, this is the stuff of this is all anti-democratic, not a democratic party, a democracy.
00:20:58.360Democracy is at stake with Joe Biden, who is assisting the Iranians in a takeover of the Middle East, in their assault with Hamas on Israel, with their assault on Israel with Hezbollah and other factions.
00:21:13.920Joe Biden has empowered the worst countries in the world.
00:21:17.140Joe Biden has actually sat there on his hands as China advances in the Pacific, as they advance even in South America.
00:22:16.880You know, we have so many questions about the 2020 election, and I would look at every Biden policy failure, whether it be Afghanistan, whether it be in Panama, whether it be in the Pacific, at every Biden policy failure, China is there to swoop in and to do damage control and to kind of take over the influence that America and Joe Biden are leaving behind.
00:22:40.600When it comes to Afghanistan, China was in our Kabul airport, our multi-billion dollar airport, within hours after Joe Biden had his botched withdrawal, in which 13 U.S. service members were brutally killed by a suicide bomber who also killed several hundred Afghani civilians.
00:23:00.120It's important to point out that China, within hours, is accessing our military equipment.
00:23:07.000And all of a sudden, China, who's allied with Iran, who, by the way, Iran has skyrocketed under Biden's leadership with the U.N. and with the United States sanctions.
00:23:18.920He's lifted those sanctions that President Trump was using to strangle the Iranian regime and to make them weaker.
00:23:25.760President Joe Biden lifted those sanctions and his people encouraged Iran sanctions to be lifted at the U.N. level as well.
00:23:34.160So under President Joe Biden, Iran has become the number one oil exporter to China.
00:23:39.800So China is now getting their energy from Iran.
00:23:42.100And of course, Iran is giving carte blanche to do whatever they want in the Middle East.
00:23:46.900And thanks to Joe Biden leaving behind hundreds of billions of dollars in military equipment in Afghanistan, Iran is now armed to the teeth with some of the highest tech, highest quality military equipment in the United States.
00:24:01.440And it's in the world, I should say, from the United States.
00:24:04.740And it's going to be a problem for everybody, not only in the region, but in the world, that this terrorist regime in Iran has their hands on some of the most capable weapons available.
00:24:19.440So my question to Americans, especially anybody who claims to support Israel or anybody that's Jewish even, what are you still doing supporting Joe Biden?
00:24:31.640Do you realize that Joe Biden has created Iran?
00:24:35.480And going back to the Obama administration with the Iran deal, Biden was involved with that as well.
00:24:41.340John Kerry, who is, I don't think he's still an administration official, but he was the climate czar for most of the Biden administration.
00:24:48.700So the same people who gave Iran billions of dollars in 2015 with the Iran deal, created the environment in which they could develop nuclear weapons,
00:24:58.280also handed them all of our Afghanistan equipment, are also pushing back, you know, the idea, folks, that President Joe Biden has handled anything across the world smoothly, whether it be Ukraine, whether it be Afghanistan, whether it be China, all these things are failing.
00:25:16.480There's no point of strength for America right now.
00:25:19.500And it's put us in a very dangerous position.
00:25:21.700I just saw over the weekend, we had a woman arrested in the Caribbean, an American woman.
00:25:28.240And we were talking, I was talking about it with my family.
00:25:31.040I said that woman better be ready for an extended stay because the Biden administration is so, there's such a lack of respect around the world that we can't even expect to get our hostages back.
00:25:42.360I mean, Hamas still has American hostages.
00:25:45.380You have Joe Biden and his military building a dock for Gaza so they could ship in aid, food aid, while there's still Americans being held hostage.
00:25:58.040And they go into Congress, and I've seen the tapes where Matt Gaetz goes, you know, guys, you have boots on the ground building docks in Gaza, and you're firing into Gaza.
00:26:09.660You know, you're exchanging fire with people.
00:26:24.780And if there is a legitimate criticism, there is a legitimate criticism, I think, of House Speaker Mike Johnson.
00:26:32.340I think the most legitimate criticism is that all of these things have gone unchecked.
00:26:37.620In other words, when Nancy Pelosi was Speaker of the House, all we heard about were the powers of the House of Representatives, how they had all this authority, the first branch of government, she would always say.
00:26:50.240And, you know, throwing her weight around and stopping this and stopping that.
00:26:54.320And so much of the Trump agenda was stifled by the House of Representatives.
00:26:58.580And yet, when the Republicans are in charge with Speaker Mike Johnson, we see no victories.
00:27:14.960They're getting more funding for foreign wars across the board.
00:27:18.300So where exactly are the Republican wins?
00:27:21.180And how can the Republicans expect to ever hold a majority for more than one election cycle in the House of Representatives or in the Senate, for that matter, when they do nothing to support the people who put them in office and to push the ideas that they believe in?
00:27:36.840And that's why I think Marjorie Taylor Greene is a perfect example of somebody who gets a lot of the hate, but ultimately she stands with the people on a majority of issues where a lot of Republicans don't.
00:27:48.820And if she's going to take the heat for that, I think you will eventually see more people like Marjorie Taylor Greene that are bold and they're not going to stand down when the establishment comes knocking.
00:27:59.720I thought the toppling of Kevin McCarthy was a big piece of that, which, interestingly, Greene was against.
00:28:05.320So it's interesting how the times change and how things change with time.
00:28:10.940But anyway, ladies and gentlemen, we've kind of run through the politics here, and I'm so excited to bring on my guest.
00:28:17.780We're going to do that just here in a minute.
00:31:29.020Now, my guest today is a constitutional conservative Republican seeking election to the House of Representatives in the 11th Congressional District.
00:31:42.500He's looking to unseat liberal Democrat Jerry Connolly, who has been the incumbent in that district for the past 14 years.
00:31:50.160Mike is the founder and director of Van Meter Wellness Solutions.
00:31:54.300With over 30 years of military, corrections, police, and FBI experience, Mike has seen firsthand the devastating effects of addiction on the public, his profession, and himself.
00:32:05.220He began his professional career in the U.S. Navy as a helicopter pilot serving during Desert Shield and Desert Storm.
00:32:11.560And after eight years of military service, he decided to pursue a career in law enforcement as he worked as a corrections officer in the Charles County Jail in La Plata, Maryland, and then as a police officer in Washington, D.C., rotating shift work and extreme fatigue and chronic stress.
00:32:29.600In those positions, he's experienced before, and that's why he's headed to Congress.
00:32:34.280He has extreme levels of experience that I think maybe overqualify him for the House of Representatives.
00:32:48.740Well, sir, I was, like I said, I wanted to read that bio, and it's a longer bio than we give most people, but you have such a wealth of experience in so many different areas.
00:32:59.940It led me to kind of question, why did you decide to run for Congress?
00:33:04.700What was the specific experience that prompted you to get into this race?
00:33:08.360Well, you know, it's all of the experience, to be honest with you.
00:33:11.080Now, you spent a lot of time on the addiction portion of it, which is important, right, because you and I both know that the number one cause of death of people between the ages of 18 and 49 is fentanyl.
00:33:24.800It is fentanyl, and that's an important issue.
00:33:28.040But it points to a larger issue that we have, and that's the border.
00:33:32.240Now, President Trump has said he has vowed that on day one he's going to shut the border down and that we're going to start triaging the country, and we're going to start the biggest deportation program the world has ever seen, and that needs to happen.
00:33:45.920And for you liberals out there, I don't want you to panic because I'll – if you want, I'll go through and describe what that means and why that's important to you and why that's something that you will need.
00:33:54.100Okay, so that's going to be the first thing that we need to do because fentanyl, you mark my words, you mark my words, fentanyl will destroy the United States if we do not get a handle of it.
00:34:10.800We are the equivalent of the emergency room for addiction, and it is horrific.
00:34:15.760As bad as you know that fentanyl is, and I don't think there's anybody in the country that doesn't realize how bad it is, it is actually much worse than what people realize.
00:34:23.960Now, having said that, along with this, and this goes into why I decided to run for Congress, you mentioned that I'm a retired FBI agent.
00:34:46.920It's over into the other federal agencies, even into the DOD.
00:34:50.020And we have to have people in Congress that understand this.
00:34:54.740And the Trump administration, any president, but the next one, let's be honest, is going to be Donald J. Trump.
00:35:00.220Donald J. Trump needs to be surrounded by people both in the administration, in Congress, throughout, that understand these organizations and can deal with them and can clean them up.
00:35:13.560You know, one of the great things, what made me a true believer in Donald Trump and his presidency was the fact that he fired James Comey.
00:35:41.440And I think what happened with the president was he – I think he thought that by getting rid of James Comey, that would solve the problem.
00:35:47.680But what he didn't realize is that it was years and years of people coming into the organization and promoting up through the organization.
00:35:57.340And I have a podcast called The Mike Van Meter Show where we go into great detail talking about the promotional system and the intricacies and the internal workings of the FBI and how that happened.
00:36:24.980Agents, we used to refer to that as the reign of terror, actually.
00:36:28.560But it was those 12 years, really, of people being promoted up through the system and getting to the ranks where they could really do a lot of damage.
00:36:40.540And Comey was really just a continuation of that.
00:36:49.320But the president will need to have people in – around him that understand the organization because, you know, people can say that they understand the FBI.
00:36:59.260Unless you are in the FBI, you do not understand the FBI.
00:37:02.680You're going to have to have people around the president in order to do that.
00:37:07.040And I just pray that Donald Trump does that.
00:37:09.540And, you know, that's really where it comes down to.
00:37:13.060Now, I was very, very critical of the FBI.
00:37:15.720Some of the things that I saw when I was in the FBI, you know, the whistleblowers that you've seen recently, and they're great, and those are great patriots, and they've done it.
00:37:23.380But they saw – they were – most of them were not even in the FBI that long.
00:37:26.720I was there over 20 years, and I saw a lot more than they did.
00:37:32.140And we need to have people in office that can fix it.
00:37:35.920And that was one of the prime reasons that I wanted to run, along with the fact that addiction, that's a major part of my life now, working on addiction, mental health.
00:37:45.000I know that that's something that is very, very important to the president, and it's something that's near and dear to him, even in his own family, with his brother passing away from alcoholism.
00:37:54.340And we – you know, we are – people always look at the Democrats as being the compassionate party.
00:38:07.040I mean, he doesn't – he's helped create problems and pass laws that have made our country less safe, has increased addiction and mental health, not decreased it.
00:38:19.040And there's not one policy – not one, not one policy that he has contributed to – Jerry Connolly, I'm talking about, my opponent – that has led to the betterment of the United States.
00:38:29.360Nor has this president done anything to increase the betterment of the United States, a lot of damage.
00:38:36.140And I would say on top of that – and, you know, I appreciate you giving your experience with the FBI and especially Robert Mueller because of where we are right now on the Stone Zone.
00:38:45.660We know that Roger – you know, I've written about this extensively.
00:38:49.360Roger was put through the ringer for process crimes, and the whole time the Mueller team is leaking out lies to the mainstream media who is taking that and putting a spin on it.
00:38:58.760And I wanted to ask you about the centerpiece of Crossfire Hurricane, which is the FISA warrants that were put on President Trump and things of that issue.
00:39:16.660And, you know, and again, I know that politicians throw this out, FISA, and, you know, your average person in the public doesn't even know what FISA is or how it works.
00:39:32.100The intent of FISA originally after 9-11 when we started using those things – because most agents had never even heard of FISA, you know, prior to 9-11.
00:39:41.940And the intent, I believe, made sense at the time, okay?
00:41:15.740We call them sophisticated investigative techniques that are used for very specific purposes.
00:41:22.220Namely, we're looking for people, overseas actors that are coming here and doing harm to us, right?
00:41:29.200But because it's designed for non-U.S. citizens and people that have come here to harm us, it's done in secret.
00:41:38.660There is no combative process in the legal process, and it's very specific to that type of work.
00:41:44.740But what you've had, what you've had happen over the years is – this is a problem.
00:41:48.880And it's not a simple problem to fix, but it's something that the next administration will have to address so things like what happened to Roger Stone and others and a lot of other people will not happen again.
00:41:59.080And that is this, and I want to note – I want to point out that all the agents that were involved, Andy McKay, Peter Strzok, all of those people, those were counterintelligence agents.
00:42:13.080And what they started doing is they started commingling counterintelligence cases with criminal cases, and they were doing things – really starting criminal investigations but using counterintelligence techniques in order to do that.
00:42:33.660Okay, let's just take a criminal case, and I'm sorry to go through this long explanation, but I think it's important that people understand this.
00:42:39.740In a criminal case, what happens is a crime is committed.
00:42:45.880Then with that crime, it's just like if you were to call the police department.
00:42:49.460A crime has been committed, and the police come, and they start to develop evidence.
00:42:54.380And in that evidence, they start building a case, and then they have to go to a judge if they want to get a search warrant, save your house, or if they want an arrest warrant of you.
00:43:04.040You have to present that evidence in court, and then you have to satisfy the requirements of a judge.
00:43:11.860You may have to go before a grand jury.
00:43:13.700And then ultimately later when you're in trial, if it gets to that point, then you are cross-examined.
00:43:35.020Or is there any evidence that maybe you, Troy, did not commit this crime?
00:43:40.280By the way, we have an obligation, an obligation that if I initially think that you committed a crime and then later evidence proves that you did not commit that crime, I have an obligation then to let the judge know that as well.
00:43:56.620Now, juxtapose that over into a counterintelligence case.
00:45:02.560He's a businessman, and he does business in Russia, and he does business in China.
00:45:07.220So that must mean that a bad guy doing business in China could do this over here.
00:45:12.840And they started down this path to try to prove, instead of having a crime – in fact, crimes were never alleged – we're going to build against him.
00:45:24.900But the problem there was when the FBI started getting evidence that proved definitively that he did not do these things or that there were people that were not involved in this, and they came across that evidence.
00:45:39.160They started changing the evidence to make it fit the narrative, if that makes sense.
00:45:44.880Absolutely, Mike, and I think you are making the perfect case right now of why you need to be in Congress and why you need to be a representative for the people because we need this expertise and common sense so that we don't have Republicans kind of bending over at the will of the establishment.
00:46:00.000Mike, we're going to go to a quick commercial break, and when we come back, I want you to tell me a little bit more about your opponent and where people can find your information to help you get through to the finish line here, folks.
00:46:09.160We have to do our crash commercial breaks just to keep the lights on.
00:46:39.160How is this going to work for me personally versus, okay, this is how it would help Tanya, or like these are symptoms that she was experiencing.
00:46:50.220Yeah, but yeah, we synced up and, you know.
00:46:53.960I look at people like Brianna and Alana, you know, you're still probably wanting to have children, you know.
00:47:24.900Banks are going cashless globally with the emergence of central bank digital currency, which will bring with it programmable money and the ability to turn on or off your purchasing power based on your digital social profile.
00:47:38.400It's like the equivalent of spyware in your bank account.
00:47:41.680You need to get out of the system with the world's safest and most private assets, silver and gold.
00:47:47.200Call Kirk Elliott, Ph.D. at 877-547-5743.
00:47:54.200Ladies and gentlemen, happy to be back here in the Stone Zone.
00:48:09.840I'm Troy Smith, the editor and founder of Slingshot.News, here with my guest, candidate for Congress in the 11th District of Virginia, Mike Van Meter.
00:48:18.060Now, Mike, you are running against one of really the worst Democrats in the House of Representatives that works lockstep with Akeem Jeffries, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer.
00:48:28.040Tell us about what Mr. Connolly has done to destroy the United States.
00:48:51.480And before I get to some of the things that he's done, I just want to point out something that he did here – a couple of things that he did here recently just to show that he cannot be trusted in how he's despicable and he just needs to go.
00:49:02.360So he has a – here in Virginia, we're in the primaries, and June 18th is the final day of voting.
00:49:10.540And he has an opponent, a guy named Asim Nassar.
00:49:13.740And recently, Jerry put out a notice that we – he accused us of colluding with Asim Nassar's campaign to take him out of Congress and to get Nassar to win the campaign.
00:49:26.600That's what Jerry's campaign said, and it's absolutely a lie.
00:49:31.880Even Asim's campaign put that and said, look, this guy's lying about that.
00:49:36.100And when you have something that is that blatant, that blatant, how do you trust anything else that the guy says?
00:49:42.700And another thing that he said recently was he accused us of collaborating with Nazis to get into office.
00:49:49.880And I've got to tell you, Troy, as a veteran, as somebody – that I've spent my entire adult life – I've taken the oath to this nation five times over and served in uniform.
00:50:01.900I cannot tell you how offensive that is.
00:50:05.120And Jerry Connolly has never served in uniform, would never serve this nation in uniform.
00:50:09.240And there were actual Nazis on planet Earth, as you know.
00:50:13.440And people like me, people in uniform went and put a stop to that, okay?
00:50:17.820And if this was the 1940s, I would have done what I did in the 1980s and gone into the military and done that.
00:51:52.040That's not by accident, and what's happened to Israel, trust me, it's just a matter of time before it happens here.
00:51:59.420Now, the reason why I say that is Jerry Connolly will not secure the border.
00:52:04.220Jerry Connolly will not deport anyone that is here, to include – recently he voted against a bill that was – the purpose of the bill was to deport any illegal alien that committed a violent felony.
00:52:20.640And this was in reaction to Lake and Riley down in Georgia.
00:52:24.440That's what prompted this bill, and he voted against it.
00:52:27.640I mean, what else do you need to know about this guy?
00:52:30.780I talked about fentanyl coming across our borders.
00:52:34.860And the – other than just the human tragedy, there's also a national security aspect to fentanyl because I mentioned the age groups that this is killing.
00:52:44.520Well, that happens to be our military age.
00:52:48.500And so this guy, Jerry Connolly, has the gall to recently be on the floor of the House and talk about computer security, and he talks about the importance of national security.
00:53:00.040But yet he won't do what he needs to do to make this nation safe.
00:53:05.680And I tell you, Troy, I believe that the number one purpose, the number one purpose of this government or any government on earth is the protection and the security of their people.
00:53:19.620If Congress cannot ensure the safety and security of the American people first and foremost before it does anything else, then it's really worthless as far as I'm concerned.
00:53:36.000And he's one of the most despicable members of Congress.
00:53:38.340I can't tell you how much the people of the Stone Zone here support you and your run to unseat this scoundrel, really, from Congress because that's what he is.
00:53:47.040And I understand – people need to understand at home.
00:53:52.080Running for the House of Representatives is getting more expensive by the year.
00:53:55.660And that's why we want to encourage people to go to your website.
00:53:58.000We have a graphic I want to put up, vanmeterforvirginia.com, is where you can go support Mike Van Meter in his attempt to oust the radical Pelosi Democrat, Jerry Conley.
00:54:39.260Again, you can go to vanmeterforvirginia.com to support his effort to unseat Jerry Conley, really a terrible, terrible Democrat.
00:54:46.320And removing him would be a huge blow to the Pelosi, Hakeem Jeffries element in the House of Representatives.
00:54:53.140So go ahead and support Mike Van Meter.
00:54:55.840And again, folks, you can follow us here on Rumble, rumble.com slash Roger Stone.
