00:00:00.000 The Stone Zone, with legendary Republican strategist and political icon and pundit Roger Stone.
00:00:07.560 Stone has served as a senior campaign aide to three Republican presidents.
00:00:11.580 He is a New York Times best-selling author and a longtime friend and advisor of President Donald Trump.
00:00:17.220 As an outspoken libertarian, Stone has appeared on thousands of broadcasts, spoken at countless venues,
00:00:22.640 and lectured before the prestigious Oxford Political Union and the Cambridge Union Society.
00:00:27.640 Due to his four-plus decades in the political and cultural arena, Stone has become a pop culture icon.
00:00:33.600 And now, here's your host, Roger Stone.
00:00:39.180 Welcome. I'm Roger Stone, and yes, you are back in the Stone Zone.
00:00:45.940 You may recall that after I went through the Soviet-style show trial in Washington, D.C.,
00:00:52.780 which I was charged with lying to Congress in my voluntary testimony before the House Intelligence Committee,
00:01:01.420 despite the fact that any misstatement I made had no material relevance to any underlying crime,
00:01:09.080 because, well, there was no Russian collusion.
00:01:12.380 Nor was there any collaboration between me or the Trump campaign and WikiLeaks.
00:01:19.140 And the government never produced any evidence to the contrary.
00:01:24.160 Nonetheless, I was convicted in a rigged trial,
00:01:28.060 and then the four prosecutors in my case resigned when they said that they were unduly politically pressured
00:01:36.400 by their superiors at the Department of Justice to give me a lenient sentence.
00:01:43.160 In fact, they were asking for seven to nine years,
00:01:46.900 and their sentencing memo specifically accused me of, quote,
00:01:53.100 interference in the election on behalf of a foreign power,
00:01:58.700 which, of course, I was not charged nor convicted of,
00:02:02.000 and for threatening a federal judge.
00:02:06.360 That's not true either.
00:02:09.240 Anyway, the inspector general of the Justice Department launched an investigation into my sentencing
00:02:16.320 based on the demands of various Democrats, including Chuck Schumer.
00:02:21.680 Yesterday, the report was published,
00:02:24.940 and it concluded that there was no undue political pressure
00:02:30.360 by the top echelon of the Department of Justice,
00:02:35.020 including Attorney General Bill Barr,
00:02:37.860 on the four prosecutors in my case.
00:02:40.420 So once again, I have been vindicated.
00:02:44.340 My guest today, Larry Johnson,
00:02:48.240 knows perhaps more about the Russian collusion hoax
00:02:52.740 than many people in America.
00:02:55.280 He is a former CIA officer
00:02:57.940 and a noted author and journalist
00:03:03.420 who has covered the Deep State,
00:03:05.840 the Central Intelligence Agency,
00:03:08.700 and the ongoing battle going on in America,
00:03:13.660 where we have a ruling elite that were elected by no one.
00:03:18.960 He is a man for whom I have enormous respect.
00:03:23.160 Larry Johnson, now formerly of the CIA,
00:03:27.040 joins us on The Stone Zone.
00:03:30.640 Thanks, Roger.
00:03:32.100 Pleasure to be with you.
00:03:33.440 Thank you so much.
00:03:34.900 I cut your biography short there
00:03:37.860 because I had a little computer failure.
00:03:40.340 But give us, give folks just a brief
00:03:43.420 on, you know, your background
00:03:45.940 and your experience, if you would.
00:03:47.480 Well, let me first say
00:03:49.620 that I first met Roger Stone
00:03:51.940 when I was teaching at American University
00:03:55.440 in the Washington Semester Program.
00:03:57.780 And you came and addressed a class.
00:03:59.980 I think Tom Snitch was the professor
00:04:03.520 that you came and spoke.
00:04:04.880 So that was 44 years ago.
00:04:07.920 So, yeah, time flies.
00:04:10.260 My time, four years with the CIA,
00:04:14.860 four years with State Department counterterrorism,
00:04:17.080 24 years doing consulting work
00:04:20.140 that included scripting terrorism exercises
00:04:23.180 for military special operations forces,
00:04:26.600 as well as conducting overseas money laundering investigations.
00:04:31.200 Now, what's made my, you know,
00:04:34.420 given me sort of particularly unique insights
00:04:37.460 is I've worked with the CIA
00:04:41.340 on both the operations and analysis side.
00:04:44.060 I've worked with the FBI,
00:04:46.220 was involved in helping support them
00:04:48.100 in their investigation of Pan Am 103.
00:04:50.940 I've worked with all transportation security,
00:04:53.760 both aviation and maritime.
00:04:55.360 I've had access and worked
00:04:57.520 with the National Security Agency.
00:05:00.740 And then I've worked with the military's
00:05:03.280 most elite forces
00:05:04.520 and been involved with highly classified programs.
00:05:09.360 So I know how the game's played.
00:05:12.000 I'm one of those individuals
00:05:13.560 with a unique insight to it.
00:05:16.080 The average person gets the silo effect.
00:05:18.380 You know, they're only on one cone.
00:05:20.100 They work only with the FBI
00:05:21.540 or only with the Secret Service.
00:05:23.640 I've been able to, I cover a broad area.
00:05:28.040 And that I think has helped me understand
00:05:30.220 the abuse of power that was taking place
00:05:34.580 when they went after you.
00:05:35.680 And more importantly,
00:05:36.900 we're going after Donald Trump.
00:05:38.160 I mean, you were just someone who was in the way.
00:05:42.000 Their real goal was to destroy Donald Trump.
00:05:44.800 Yeah, you're absolutely right about that.
00:05:47.860 Looking back at it,
00:05:49.200 sometimes I have to pinch myself
00:05:50.820 because it's a nightmare actually,
00:05:53.940 as yesterday's news demonstrates,
00:05:56.220 never really ends.
00:05:58.100 I read the inspector general's report.
00:06:01.080 It absolutely concluded
00:06:02.680 that there was no pressure by Bill Barr
00:06:05.280 or anyone at the upper epsilons of DOJ
00:06:08.800 on the four prosecutors in my case.
00:06:12.220 One of the four prosecutors, however,
00:06:14.280 testified for the House Judiciary Committee
00:06:16.380 saying the opposite.
00:06:18.200 In other words, he perjured himself.
00:06:20.440 He lied before Congress
00:06:22.240 being guilty of the exact same crime
00:06:25.660 that they accused me of.
00:06:27.020 Now, they tried to clean that up in the report.
00:06:30.760 You know, I don't expect the Justice Department
00:06:33.480 to ever discipline any of their own.
00:06:36.360 But what's most interesting
00:06:37.560 is I read a Reuters report this morning.
00:06:39.940 And I have to conclude
00:06:41.900 that the reporter who wrote it
00:06:43.180 never actually read the report
00:06:45.520 because his headline was
00:06:47.400 top DOJ officials interceded
00:06:50.200 to soften Trump's, Stone's sentence.
00:06:54.400 Not even remotely accurate.
00:06:56.720 Welcome to the fake news.
00:06:59.580 I almost don't know where to start,
00:07:01.360 but I guess the place we should start
00:07:02.840 most logically
00:07:03.600 is with the attempted assassination
00:07:05.880 of Donald Trump
00:07:07.800 in Butler, Pennsylvania.
00:07:10.240 Every single day,
00:07:11.280 we seem to learn new facts about that.
00:07:15.060 Stunning that the FBI director,
00:07:17.460 Christopher Wray,
00:07:18.340 testified yesterday
00:07:19.220 that the man they accused of doing this,
00:07:22.520 Thomas Matthew Crooks,
00:07:24.400 actually went online
00:07:25.740 to study Lee Harvey Oswald's alleged murder
00:07:30.860 of John F. Kennedy
00:07:32.760 and what the distance was
00:07:35.260 between where the shooter,
00:07:38.440 at least, was and Kennedy.
00:07:41.100 Previously, of course,
00:07:42.080 they had told us
00:07:42.720 that all of Mr. Crook's background
00:07:45.780 and anything on him
00:07:46.980 on the Internet
00:07:47.560 had been scrubbed.
00:07:49.020 So you kind of wonder
00:07:50.140 how that's possible.
00:07:52.100 We also, I think,
00:07:53.640 definitively have learned
00:07:55.520 that the Secret Service
00:07:58.160 and therefore the local
00:07:59.820 and state police
00:08:00.660 were aware of the presence
00:08:02.820 of Mr. Crooks
00:08:04.260 for 62 minutes.
00:08:06.320 They knew he had a gun.
00:08:07.820 They had seen him use
00:08:09.040 a rangefinder,
00:08:10.320 yet they never informed
00:08:12.300 President Trump
00:08:13.260 of this danger,
00:08:14.020 nor did they evacuate him.
00:08:16.380 What are your thoughts on this?
00:08:18.680 So let me just explain
00:08:20.420 that my bona fides
00:08:22.380 to address some of this.
00:08:23.940 When I was at state,
00:08:25.140 one of my responsibilities
00:08:26.300 was to oversee
00:08:27.700 the anti-terrorism
00:08:29.400 assistance training program,
00:08:31.260 which meant that we helped,
00:08:32.860 we created
00:08:34.360 and oversaw the curriculum
00:08:36.700 what was taught
00:08:37.860 to foreign police.
00:08:38.780 One of those
00:08:39.220 was executive protection.
00:08:41.280 Plus, I'd worked with
00:08:43.080 the former head
00:08:44.780 of Ronald Reagan's
00:08:46.400 Secret Service team,
00:08:48.140 and we did some
00:08:49.800 security assessments
00:08:51.860 of airports
00:08:52.640 and one school
00:08:54.100 where there was
00:08:54.620 a dignitary.
00:08:55.760 So I have some
00:08:56.900 basic knowledge of this,
00:08:58.400 but also friends
00:09:00.220 in the community.
00:09:02.100 I said initially,
00:09:03.460 this is one of the most
00:09:05.060 appalling displays
00:09:08.500 of incompetence
00:09:09.620 by the Secret Service,
00:09:12.080 or this was something darker.
00:09:13.420 This was part of a plot.
00:09:15.280 I was willing to give them
00:09:16.720 the benefit of the doubt
00:09:17.700 of thinking that they
00:09:18.520 were just incompetent.
00:09:20.580 Now, after almost two weeks,
00:09:23.260 we know that it was
00:09:24.200 not incompetence.
00:09:26.000 This was a planned,
00:09:27.420 organized plot.
00:09:29.600 This Crooks kid was,
00:09:31.980 he was part of it.
00:09:33.860 I'm not exactly sure
00:09:35.460 how he was used.
00:09:37.480 I'm pretty confident
00:09:38.540 he's the one
00:09:39.200 that fired the shots,
00:09:41.460 despite the other things
00:09:42.800 that are being said.
00:09:43.540 But like that story
00:09:44.840 that they put out,
00:09:45.920 oh, he was studying
00:09:46.840 Lee Harvey Oswald.
00:09:48.620 You know,
00:09:49.620 I'm skeptical of that.
00:09:52.320 I think that they're
00:09:53.280 trying to paint him
00:09:54.360 as this lone wolf,
00:09:55.860 just like Lee Harvey Oswald.
00:09:57.940 And that's why
00:09:58.880 they put the story out.
00:10:00.580 I do not trust
00:10:02.080 anything
00:10:03.440 the FBI says
00:10:05.540 anymore
00:10:06.440 after what we've seen,
00:10:08.340 how they've conducted
00:10:09.260 themselves.
00:10:10.400 And similarly
00:10:11.400 with the Secret Service,
00:10:12.720 where it's become
00:10:14.160 politicized.
00:10:15.880 Because when you,
00:10:16.640 when you,
00:10:17.080 when you total up
00:10:17.960 what was not done
00:10:20.200 to protect Donald Trump,
00:10:23.180 it's clear that this
00:10:23.880 wasn't just a
00:10:24.940 routine oversight.
00:10:27.100 You know,
00:10:27.340 the first,
00:10:27.920 the first task
00:10:28.660 was to conduct
00:10:29.440 the proper advance work,
00:10:31.040 which means you've got
00:10:32.200 a team of Secret Service
00:10:33.420 agents that go out
00:10:34.440 and they look at the venue
00:10:35.460 and they figure out
00:10:36.680 everything they're going
00:10:37.360 to need to do
00:10:37.960 to prevent anybody
00:10:39.120 from being able
00:10:39.800 to get a weapon
00:10:40.460 anywhere close
00:10:41.440 to Donald Trump.
00:10:43.280 And that includes
00:10:44.040 the outside perimeter,
00:10:45.780 which at a minimum
00:10:46.640 they should have
00:10:47.180 extended it to 500 yards
00:10:49.260 and possibly out
00:10:51.100 to 1,000 yards.
00:10:52.820 It's always a function
00:10:54.040 of what's out there
00:10:55.440 and about.
00:10:56.340 And particularly
00:10:57.340 that area
00:10:58.620 where the shooter
00:11:00.820 was on top
00:11:02.140 of the roof,
00:11:02.880 that had to be secured
00:11:05.000 and was not.
00:11:06.280 The second thing
00:11:08.420 that's come out
00:11:09.200 and apparently
00:11:10.200 Christopher Wray
00:11:11.560 suggested this
00:11:12.300 in his testimony yesterday
00:11:13.500 was that the
00:11:14.460 counter sniper teams
00:11:15.740 for Secret Service
00:11:17.100 didn't have permission
00:11:18.080 to fire
00:11:18.940 at that side,
00:11:20.680 at the 140-yard target
00:11:22.600 outside the perimeter.
00:11:24.960 Well,
00:11:25.120 that's just wrong.
00:11:28.240 The Secret Service
00:11:29.500 is one of the few
00:11:30.440 organizations
00:11:31.080 where there's
00:11:31.600 standing rules
00:11:32.440 of engagement
00:11:33.140 are that a
00:11:34.340 counter sniper team,
00:11:35.260 if they spot somebody
00:11:36.500 that's within their area
00:11:38.080 and that has a weapon,
00:11:41.240 they can take him out
00:11:42.040 and kill him.
00:11:43.120 So you've got that.
00:11:44.580 You've got the fact
00:11:45.400 that there was
00:11:45.880 advanced warnings
00:11:47.120 about this
00:11:47.960 suspicious character.
00:11:49.840 And again,
00:11:50.340 Secret Service protocol.
00:11:51.980 Don't let the person
00:11:53.620 you're protecting
00:11:54.220 on stage
00:11:54.940 until you resolve
00:11:55.700 that issue.
00:11:57.240 They let Trump
00:11:58.020 go on stage.
00:11:59.720 So it was just,
00:12:01.680 and then on top of it,
00:12:03.100 they pulled
00:12:04.000 Trump's regular
00:12:05.300 Secret Service
00:12:05.980 detail
00:12:06.420 from that
00:12:07.840 day,
00:12:09.460 sent them
00:12:09.840 reportedly on vacation
00:12:11.260 or maybe deployed
00:12:12.580 them to work
00:12:13.620 for Joe Biden.
00:12:15.020 But the people
00:12:15.960 that they put
00:12:16.400 in charge,
00:12:17.160 my understanding
00:12:18.480 is that the
00:12:19.540 Secret Service
00:12:20.880 director
00:12:21.340 of the Pittsburgh
00:12:22.080 office,
00:12:23.480 he's a cyber crime
00:12:25.520 guy.
00:12:26.020 That's his background.
00:12:27.480 You know,
00:12:27.940 financial crime,
00:12:29.060 cyber crime.
00:12:30.540 He doesn't know
00:12:30.960 anything about
00:12:31.360 protective details
00:12:32.280 and yet they put
00:12:32.880 him in charge.
00:12:34.380 Just because you've
00:12:35.880 reached a certain
00:12:36.560 level in terms
00:12:37.580 of career status
00:12:38.740 in the Secret
00:12:39.860 Service doesn't
00:12:41.320 mean that you
00:12:41.740 actually know
00:12:42.180 what you're doing
00:12:42.820 with that
00:12:43.200 particular case.
00:12:44.760 So when you
00:12:45.740 pile all that
00:12:46.740 together,
00:12:47.380 coupled with,
00:12:48.300 this took place
00:12:49.760 two days before
00:12:50.720 the Republican
00:12:51.380 National Convention
00:12:52.380 and CNN,
00:12:54.740 who has not
00:12:55.320 covered,
00:12:56.500 I don't remember
00:12:57.140 the last time
00:12:57.720 they did live
00:12:58.500 coverage of a
00:12:59.240 Trump rally.
00:13:00.160 Oh, they
00:13:00.420 decided to show
00:13:01.260 up and cover
00:13:01.800 the Trump rally
00:13:02.480 that day.
00:13:03.080 Huh.
00:13:03.900 That's an
00:13:04.300 interesting coincidence.
00:13:06.120 And the New York
00:13:06.680 Times reporter,
00:13:07.680 photographer,
00:13:08.600 who takes a
00:13:09.080 picture of the,
00:13:09.880 gets a picture
00:13:10.480 of the bullet,
00:13:11.800 he decides to
00:13:13.940 set his camera
00:13:14.720 up for high
00:13:15.480 speed photography.
00:13:18.940 Who does that
00:13:20.020 at an event
00:13:20.580 like a rally?
00:13:21.760 So,
00:13:22.700 put all that
00:13:23.500 together,
00:13:24.740 it stinks.
00:13:27.100 Yeah,
00:13:27.360 there's just,
00:13:27.840 it seems to be
00:13:28.420 more questions
00:13:29.340 than there are
00:13:30.360 answers.
00:13:31.220 Senator Ron
00:13:31.840 Johnson
00:13:32.280 seemed to indicate
00:13:34.040 after a government
00:13:34.840 briefing that
00:13:35.660 he believed there
00:13:36.760 may have been
00:13:37.420 more than one
00:13:38.460 shooter,
00:13:38.860 maybe as many
00:13:39.620 as two
00:13:40.400 shooters.
00:13:41.420 I've seen,
00:13:42.820 but I'm hardly
00:13:43.440 expert at,
00:13:44.540 acoustical analysis
00:13:46.380 that also seems
00:13:47.820 to point to the
00:13:48.680 possibility of
00:13:49.740 more than one
00:13:50.920 shooter.
00:13:51.940 Do you,
00:13:52.580 based on what
00:13:53.140 you have seen,
00:13:54.420 do you have an
00:13:54.940 opinion on that?
00:13:56.780 Yeah,
00:13:56.980 so the
00:13:57.640 acoustical
00:13:58.260 evidence shows
00:13:59.080 that there
00:13:59.400 were two,
00:14:00.020 maybe three
00:14:00.500 different guns
00:14:01.160 fired.
00:14:01.660 Well,
00:14:02.420 yeah,
00:14:02.860 duh,
00:14:03.140 you've got
00:14:03.860 crooks firing,
00:14:06.700 you've got
00:14:07.240 at least one
00:14:08.960 Secret Service
00:14:10.300 counter-sniper team
00:14:11.580 firing,
00:14:12.180 and then a local
00:14:12.860 police counter-sniper
00:14:15.020 team firing.
00:14:15.980 So,
00:14:16.320 that would
00:14:16.720 account for three
00:14:17.580 different types
00:14:18.440 of guns.
00:14:19.760 What I look for
00:14:20.780 is who
00:14:22.200 got shot.
00:14:24.420 Donald Trump
00:14:25.040 got shot,
00:14:26.340 there was,
00:14:27.300 Corey Campentori
00:14:28.560 was shot
00:14:29.240 in the head
00:14:30.040 and killed,
00:14:31.100 and two other
00:14:31.640 individuals.
00:14:32.740 When you look
00:14:33.300 at their physical
00:14:34.100 locations of
00:14:35.300 where they were,
00:14:36.840 they were all
00:14:37.600 in alignment
00:14:38.560 with where
00:14:39.860 Crooks was.
00:14:41.520 So,
00:14:42.460 if there was
00:14:43.640 a second shooter
00:14:44.560 that was trying
00:14:45.240 to kill Trump,
00:14:46.700 what I look for
00:14:47.420 is,
00:14:48.080 one,
00:14:48.360 where's the
00:14:48.760 victims?
00:14:50.080 And,
00:14:50.500 two,
00:14:51.060 where's the
00:14:51.920 evidence that
00:14:52.460 people who
00:14:52.920 were not in
00:14:53.440 that line
00:14:54.020 of fire
00:14:54.660 were shot.
00:14:56.760 So,
00:14:57.000 if you had
00:14:57.840 people more
00:14:58.540 up to the
00:14:59.100 right or
00:15:00.360 left and
00:15:01.020 up to the
00:15:01.580 right,
00:15:02.200 then you'll
00:15:04.060 say,
00:15:04.260 yeah,
00:15:04.420 it looks like
00:15:04.820 there were
00:15:05.040 multiple
00:15:05.400 shooters.
00:15:06.180 I don't
00:15:06.660 think there
00:15:07.080 were.
00:15:07.820 Now,
00:15:08.540 if the
00:15:09.360 people listening
00:15:10.160 to Ray
00:15:10.520 yesterday,
00:15:11.180 they heard
00:15:11.480 him say,
00:15:11.900 oh,
00:15:12.000 we found
00:15:12.420 eight cartridges
00:15:13.340 next to
00:15:13.960 the body.
00:15:15.740 Now,
00:15:17.120 this underscores
00:15:18.780 that either
00:15:19.560 Ray
00:15:20.120 didn't know
00:15:22.700 what he
00:15:22.920 was saying
00:15:23.660 and that
00:15:26.200 he's ignorant
00:15:26.800 or he
00:15:29.100 was conveying
00:15:30.160 something that
00:15:30.820 doesn't tell
00:15:31.980 us anything
00:15:32.400 about how
00:15:32.800 many shots
00:15:33.280 are fired
00:15:33.720 because a
00:15:34.800 cartridge is
00:15:36.300 a fully
00:15:36.940 intact piece
00:15:38.740 of ammunition.
00:15:39.980 A cartridge
00:15:40.560 consists of
00:15:41.420 four components.
00:15:43.060 It has a
00:15:43.920 primer,
00:15:45.320 a shell
00:15:45.740 casing,
00:15:46.920 gunpowder,
00:15:47.960 and the
00:15:48.440 bullet.
00:15:48.740 So if
00:15:50.480 you fire
00:15:51.240 a cartridge,
00:15:52.860 what's left
00:15:53.760 is an
00:15:54.640 empty shell
00:15:55.560 casing.
00:15:57.160 So when I
00:15:57.860 heard Ray
00:15:58.300 say, oh,
00:15:58.640 we found
00:15:58.960 eight cartridges,
00:15:59.760 I go,
00:16:00.200 okay,
00:16:00.960 so how
00:16:02.240 many did
00:16:02.560 he shoot?
00:16:03.680 I think
00:16:04.360 what he
00:16:04.600 meant to
00:16:04.980 say was
00:16:05.400 there were
00:16:05.760 eight shell
00:16:06.360 casings.
00:16:07.080 It just
00:16:07.540 shows what
00:16:07.960 a dummy
00:16:08.640 Christopher
00:16:10.000 Ray is
00:16:10.560 when it
00:16:10.800 comes to
00:16:11.200 firearms.
00:16:11.680 I mean,
00:16:11.800 this guy,
00:16:12.880 you know,
00:16:13.440 that's
00:16:14.060 amateur hour.
00:16:15.160 That's
00:16:15.340 something that
00:16:15.700 people who
00:16:16.120 don't work
00:16:16.560 with firearms,
00:16:17.620 it's a
00:16:17.900 mistake they'll
00:16:18.460 make.
00:16:19.400 He's the
00:16:19.800 head of
00:16:20.040 the FBI.
00:16:21.040 He should
00:16:21.340 know better.
00:16:23.100 Also,
00:16:23.980 this morning,
00:16:24.900 a story in
00:16:25.700 the UK
00:16:26.140 Daily Mail
00:16:27.200 in which
00:16:28.280 he raises
00:16:28.880 doubts about
00:16:29.720 whether Donald
00:16:30.700 Trump was
00:16:31.200 actually hit
00:16:31.780 by a bullet
00:16:32.400 or whether
00:16:33.200 the wound
00:16:34.340 in his
00:16:34.780 ear was
00:16:35.860 caused
00:16:36.260 by shrapnel.
00:16:38.480 That's
00:16:38.960 ridiculous.
00:16:40.080 Ridiculous.
00:16:41.200 It seems
00:16:41.720 completely
00:16:42.120 ridiculous,
00:16:42.820 but it
00:16:43.240 seems to
00:16:43.740 be,
00:16:44.300 to me,
00:16:45.280 is an
00:16:45.800 effort to
00:16:46.600 try to
00:16:47.460 throw shade
00:16:48.180 on the
00:16:48.600 entire
00:16:49.160 question
00:16:50.180 of the
00:16:50.780 assassination,
00:16:51.620 which brings
00:16:52.120 me to
00:16:52.700 a company
00:16:53.660 called
00:16:54.160 CrowdStrike.
00:16:55.900 Now,
00:16:56.820 it's interesting,
00:16:58.300 in my
00:16:59.260 trial,
00:17:00.380 the FBI,
00:17:01.620 in pre-trial
00:17:02.700 motions,
00:17:03.320 was forced
00:17:03.820 to admit
00:17:04.400 that they
00:17:05.400 never actually
00:17:06.200 inspected
00:17:06.900 the computer
00:17:07.800 servers at the
00:17:08.720 Democratic
00:17:09.260 National
00:17:09.960 Committee,
00:17:10.500 and that
00:17:11.600 the claim
00:17:12.280 that those
00:17:13.240 had been
00:17:13.860 hacked,
00:17:14.820 specifically
00:17:15.360 by Russian
00:17:16.500 intelligence,
00:17:17.840 came from
00:17:18.660 a report
00:17:19.660 by a
00:17:21.120 private
00:17:21.480 IT security
00:17:22.620 firm,
00:17:23.320 CrowdStrikes.
00:17:24.560 The judge,
00:17:25.920 in my case,
00:17:26.820 would not
00:17:27.340 permit us
00:17:27.880 to have
00:17:28.420 that document,
00:17:29.940 so we were
00:17:30.840 never able
00:17:31.440 to actually
00:17:32.140 see it.
00:17:33.460 It was not
00:17:34.340 until the
00:17:35.480 head of
00:17:36.240 CrowdStrikes,
00:17:37.020 a man named
00:17:37.420 Sean Henry,
00:17:38.140 who just
00:17:39.440 conveniently
00:17:40.160 happened to
00:17:40.920 have been
00:17:41.440 a deputy
00:17:42.060 to Robert
00:17:42.880 Mueller at
00:17:43.500 the FBI,
00:17:45.100 admitted under
00:17:46.420 oath that
00:17:48.060 his draft
00:17:49.160 report
00:17:49.840 included no
00:17:51.320 proof or
00:17:52.620 evidence that
00:17:53.960 the DNC had
00:17:55.320 been hacked
00:17:56.080 by Russian
00:17:57.040 intelligence,
00:17:57.740 or, for that
00:17:58.380 matter,
00:17:59.260 anyone else.
00:18:01.180 Therefore,
00:18:02.480 I have to be
00:18:03.680 somewhat
00:18:04.040 suspicious that
00:18:06.200 after the
00:18:07.580 attempted
00:18:08.380 assassination of
00:18:09.400 Trump,
00:18:10.440 and immediately
00:18:11.160 after a
00:18:11.960 highly successful
00:18:13.240 Republican
00:18:14.240 National
00:18:15.100 Convention,
00:18:16.900 that CrowdStrikes
00:18:18.200 claims that a
00:18:19.420 glitch in
00:18:20.180 their computer
00:18:22.780 architecture,
00:18:23.820 their IT
00:18:24.840 architecture,
00:18:26.280 caused one of
00:18:26.980 the major
00:18:27.440 dislocations in
00:18:28.740 American history,
00:18:29.600 shutting down
00:18:30.100 airlines,
00:18:31.200 railroads,
00:18:31.980 banks,
00:18:32.640 retail facilities,
00:18:34.220 causing havoc,
00:18:35.100 but completely
00:18:36.480 changing the
00:18:37.560 news cycle.
00:18:38.900 Is it too
00:18:39.720 far-fetched to
00:18:40.740 say, given the
00:18:41.840 fact that for
00:18:42.360 two years they
00:18:43.080 lied about the
00:18:44.820 servers at the
00:18:45.580 DNC being hacked
00:18:46.640 by the Russians,
00:18:47.860 and were part of a
00:18:48.800 major disinformation
00:18:50.560 campaign, extremely
00:18:51.860 well covered, by
00:18:53.120 the way, by
00:18:53.760 Aaron Maté, then
00:18:55.380 at Clear
00:18:56.100 Investigations,
00:18:57.080 is it a crazy
00:19:01.160 conspiracy theory
00:19:02.280 that this may
00:19:03.700 have been to
00:19:04.500 change the
00:19:05.000 news cycle?
00:19:06.680 No, people
00:19:07.260 need to
00:19:07.580 understand that
00:19:08.260 CrowdStrike, in
00:19:09.540 my opinion, has
00:19:10.720 been a tool of
00:19:12.080 the deep state.
00:19:12.880 It goes back
00:19:13.340 well over eight
00:19:14.040 years.
00:19:15.160 So if you
00:19:15.560 recall the
00:19:16.300 legend about
00:19:18.020 what happened at
00:19:18.720 the DNC, that
00:19:19.600 it was a
00:19:20.020 Russian hack,
00:19:22.580 CrowdStrike was
00:19:23.840 part of that
00:19:26.000 lie.
00:19:26.520 And here's
00:19:27.380 why it's a
00:19:27.880 lie.
00:19:28.660 The actual
00:19:29.460 founder of
00:19:30.060 CrowdStrike was
00:19:31.040 a guy named
00:19:31.700 Alperovitch, a
00:19:33.200 Ukrainian Jew.
00:19:35.860 Funny how
00:19:36.600 Ukraine keeps
00:19:37.560 popping up in
00:19:38.300 all of these
00:19:38.720 things.
00:19:40.100 Sean Henry, you're
00:19:41.020 correct, he was
00:19:41.640 the CIO, because
00:19:43.280 he had headed up
00:19:44.240 cyber security, the
00:19:46.840 cyber unit at
00:19:47.840 the FBI.
00:19:49.700 So according to
00:19:50.360 Alperovitch, and
00:19:51.100 these are all,
00:19:51.800 again, none of my
00:19:52.520 opinions, these are
00:19:53.460 all public sources,
00:19:54.460 can back them up.
00:19:55.200 He claimed that
00:19:56.980 they were called
00:19:57.640 into the DNC
00:19:59.720 either on April
00:20:00.560 29th or May
00:20:01.560 2nd.
00:20:02.020 He gives them
00:20:02.500 two different
00:20:02.940 interviews, gives
00:20:03.660 two different
00:20:04.120 dates.
00:20:05.180 But early in the
00:20:06.480 first week of
00:20:07.120 May, they
00:20:07.460 discovered that
00:20:08.240 the Russians had
00:20:09.280 penetrated the
00:20:10.060 DNC.
00:20:11.140 So pay attention
00:20:12.020 to the timeline.
00:20:13.340 So by May 5th,
00:20:14.440 they knew that
00:20:15.600 the Russians were
00:20:16.540 inside the DNC
00:20:18.100 servers.
00:20:19.060 And what did
00:20:19.860 CrowdStrike do?
00:20:21.600 Nothing.
00:20:22.200 They wait until
00:20:24.380 June 10th to
00:20:26.520 shut down the
00:20:27.640 servers and to
00:20:28.780 clean them out and
00:20:29.860 get rid of the
00:20:30.480 Russians.
00:20:31.180 So they wait 42
00:20:32.520 days, roughly.
00:20:34.180 Now, what
00:20:34.460 happened in
00:20:34.940 between them?
00:20:35.980 Well, we know
00:20:36.740 from the
00:20:37.700 WikiLeaks
00:20:38.500 cables that
00:20:40.520 came from the
00:20:41.340 DNC, because
00:20:42.560 there's metadata
00:20:43.180 on them that
00:20:44.120 show you when
00:20:45.400 they were
00:20:45.780 actually removed
00:20:47.620 from the DNC
00:20:49.640 server.
00:20:50.220 and how
00:20:52.340 they were
00:20:52.780 removed.
00:20:53.940 They were not
00:20:54.980 taken by what's
00:20:55.900 called spear
00:20:56.540 phishing.
00:20:57.500 You know, when
00:20:57.760 somebody sends
00:20:58.420 you a message
00:20:58.940 saying, hey,
00:20:59.700 this is your
00:21:01.260 Uncle Bob.
00:21:02.220 Take a look at
00:21:02.760 my pictures.
00:21:03.600 And you click
00:21:04.160 on it and boom,
00:21:05.520 they grab your
00:21:06.240 information off
00:21:06.960 your computer.
00:21:07.780 No.
00:21:08.660 This was
00:21:09.080 downloaded onto
00:21:10.720 a thumb drive or
00:21:11.760 some other
00:21:12.200 electronic media.
00:21:13.940 Number one.
00:21:14.740 The download
00:21:15.320 took place on
00:21:16.260 May 25th.
00:21:17.340 So, from
00:21:18.960 May 25th
00:21:20.220 until June
00:21:21.340 10th, a
00:21:23.960 little more
00:21:24.560 than two
00:21:25.000 weeks.
00:21:26.420 And what
00:21:27.220 happened in
00:21:27.700 that time
00:21:28.160 frame is
00:21:28.620 that the
00:21:29.140 CIA, working
00:21:31.200 with the
00:21:31.640 Democrat
00:21:32.500 National
00:21:33.080 Committee,
00:21:34.180 because you
00:21:34.620 say, well,
00:21:35.740 why is the
00:21:36.840 intelligence
00:21:37.220 community
00:21:37.800 involved?
00:21:38.740 Because when
00:21:39.740 Seth Rich,
00:21:41.300 and in my
00:21:41.740 view, Seth
00:21:42.340 Rich is the
00:21:42.900 one who
00:21:43.360 took the
00:21:44.440 data, he
00:21:46.120 sold it
00:21:46.740 to
00:21:47.240 WikiLeaks.
00:21:48.480 Well, both
00:21:49.140 NSA, British
00:21:51.080 GCHQ, their
00:21:52.420 version of
00:21:52.960 the NSA, and
00:21:54.160 the CIA, and
00:21:55.300 the MI6, they
00:21:56.700 were collecting
00:21:57.240 and monitoring
00:21:57.900 any kind of
00:21:58.980 communication that
00:21:59.860 was coming in
00:22:00.640 to WikiLeaks.
00:22:03.300 Man, when they
00:22:03.860 saw that, they
00:22:04.480 realized they had
00:22:05.020 a problem.
00:22:05.500 We've got to
00:22:05.820 come up with
00:22:06.200 an explanation
00:22:06.900 where how
00:22:08.320 WikiLeaks got
00:22:09.420 a hold of
00:22:09.840 this, and we'll
00:22:10.280 blame it on
00:22:10.700 the Russians.
00:22:11.580 So they
00:22:11.920 created the
00:22:12.500 story.
00:22:13.280 And they
00:22:13.760 created a
00:22:14.260 character called
00:22:14.900 Guccifer 2.0, and
00:22:16.960 we know later
00:22:17.780 from another
00:22:18.880 leak to
00:22:20.340 WikiLeaks of
00:22:21.620 Vault 7
00:22:22.580 material, it
00:22:23.400 was the
00:22:24.920 cyber
00:22:25.600 tools, cyber
00:22:27.400 warfare tools
00:22:28.200 used by the
00:22:28.880 CIA, that
00:22:30.240 they were able
00:22:30.740 to create
00:22:31.880 these, I
00:22:35.120 guess, legends
00:22:35.860 overseas that
00:22:37.080 would make you
00:22:37.540 think you were
00:22:38.340 dealing with a
00:22:39.040 foreign entity.
00:22:40.480 So here's
00:22:40.980 CrowdStrike
00:22:41.900 helping lie and
00:22:43.680 fabricate in
00:22:44.620 directly working
00:22:45.900 not just with
00:22:47.040 the FBI, but
00:22:48.560 with the CIA
00:22:49.560 to create this
00:22:51.520 lie that the
00:22:53.460 Russians hacked
00:22:54.280 the DNC.
00:22:55.240 They did not.
00:22:56.020 And people
00:22:56.860 say, well, you
00:22:57.860 shouldn't raise
00:22:58.380 Seth Rich in
00:22:59.060 that way.
00:22:59.500 Well, let me
00:22:59.820 just lay out
00:23:01.300 this fact for
00:23:02.140 you.
00:23:02.840 The fact that
00:23:03.920 Seth Rich
00:23:04.660 died in what
00:23:05.820 appeared to be
00:23:06.660 a random
00:23:07.920 robbery, murder
00:23:09.560 in the streets
00:23:10.440 of D.C.
00:23:11.560 Domestic crime,
00:23:12.560 right?
00:23:12.780 Except the
00:23:14.040 Washington field
00:23:14.960 office was
00:23:15.620 brought into
00:23:16.200 it to
00:23:17.520 investigate.
00:23:18.720 And they
00:23:19.860 were communicating
00:23:21.220 the nature of
00:23:22.200 the investigation
00:23:22.880 with one Peter
00:23:24.260 Strzok, who at
00:23:25.720 the time was
00:23:27.140 running the
00:23:27.840 FBI counter
00:23:29.340 intelligence shop.
00:23:31.800 He was involved
00:23:32.540 there.
00:23:33.720 Who in the world
00:23:34.680 brings in FBI
00:23:35.740 counter intelligence
00:23:36.780 whose job is to
00:23:37.700 monitor foreign
00:23:38.500 activity on a
00:23:40.200 domestic robbery.
00:23:41.920 Does that make
00:23:42.440 sense?
00:23:43.480 So when I see
00:23:44.880 anomalies like
00:23:45.800 this, and then
00:23:48.280 CrowdStrike shows
00:23:49.460 up and has this
00:23:50.200 convenient software
00:23:51.260 outage because
00:23:52.180 they're incompetent.
00:23:53.560 Again, is
00:23:54.960 CrowdStrike
00:23:55.940 incompetent?
00:23:56.740 Well, if they're
00:23:57.060 incompetent,
00:23:57.640 everybody that's
00:23:58.320 invested in,
00:23:59.640 their market cap is
00:24:01.040 somewhere in the
00:24:01.600 multi-billions, I
00:24:02.580 believe.
00:24:03.100 The stock was
00:24:03.920 selling at $350
00:24:05.460 a share.
00:24:07.880 So, you know,
00:24:08.440 that's not a
00:24:10.160 penny stock.
00:24:11.600 And yet, they
00:24:12.940 can't get a
00:24:13.640 patch right.
00:24:15.020 I've heard some
00:24:15.920 speculation.
00:24:16.760 I don't have any
00:24:17.340 way to validate
00:24:18.020 it, but it has
00:24:19.420 to be looked at.
00:24:20.780 Was this actually
00:24:21.820 part of a
00:24:22.520 deliberate effort
00:24:23.140 to help create
00:24:25.040 a cover to
00:24:26.660 divert, as you
00:24:27.420 say, to divert
00:24:28.180 attention away from
00:24:29.140 the assassination,
00:24:29.940 and more
00:24:30.180 importantly, to
00:24:31.440 maybe clean up
00:24:32.080 some files that
00:24:32.940 might have
00:24:33.340 implicated the
00:24:35.040 people in the
00:24:36.340 U.S.
00:24:36.700 government that
00:24:37.280 were supporting
00:24:37.920 or helping
00:24:38.420 crooks carry
00:24:40.200 out this
00:24:40.640 assassination
00:24:41.160 attempt?
00:24:43.140 You know, I'm
00:24:43.860 particularly
00:24:44.340 interested to
00:24:45.840 what you say
00:24:46.600 about Goose
00:24:47.880 Fert 2.0.
00:24:50.140 I was kind
00:24:51.460 of shocked in
00:24:52.180 early 2019,
00:24:53.600 when I was
00:24:54.000 contacted by
00:24:55.000 the smoking
00:24:55.640 gun, and
00:24:57.220 they had the
00:24:58.540 content of
00:25:00.060 direct messages
00:25:01.480 on Twitter
00:25:02.380 between myself
00:25:03.840 and the
00:25:05.080 entity
00:25:05.440 identifying
00:25:06.000 themselves as
00:25:06.920 Goose
00:25:07.240 Fert 2.0.
00:25:09.420 And, of
00:25:10.180 course, the
00:25:10.520 headline was
00:25:11.380 Roger Stone
00:25:12.380 communicates, a
00:25:13.540 Trump associate
00:25:14.160 communicates with
00:25:15.040 Russian asset.
00:25:16.580 Well, I'm not
00:25:17.500 sure that he was
00:25:18.160 a Russian asset,
00:25:19.040 but most
00:25:19.380 importantly, our
00:25:20.960 28-word exchange
00:25:22.980 is entirely
00:25:24.000 benign, and it
00:25:25.680 took place after
00:25:27.280 WikiLeaks had
00:25:28.080 already published
00:25:28.940 all of the DNC
00:25:30.300 and Hillary Clinton
00:25:31.380 material.
00:25:32.020 So, just
00:25:32.840 chronologically,
00:25:34.780 we could not,
00:25:35.460 and it's the
00:25:35.840 only communication
00:25:36.680 we had, so
00:25:37.360 chronologically,
00:25:38.500 would not have
00:25:39.660 been possible for
00:25:40.940 me to be involved
00:25:41.900 in the obtaining
00:25:43.220 or dissemination
00:25:44.980 of that material,
00:25:46.300 which, of course,
00:25:47.020 I wasn't.
00:25:48.100 Interestingly
00:25:48.600 enough, after I
00:25:49.540 was pardoned,
00:25:50.880 there was an
00:25:52.060 op-ed piece
00:25:52.940 published in the
00:25:53.780 Washington Post
00:25:54.460 by Robert
00:25:55.500 Mueller, which
00:25:56.200 we both know
00:25:57.120 was really
00:25:57.460 written by
00:25:57.980 Andrew
00:25:58.380 Weissman,
00:25:58.860 that said
00:26:00.300 Stone was
00:26:01.140 in contact
00:26:01.720 with Russian
00:26:03.220 intelligence
00:26:03.820 assets, with
00:26:05.320 an S.
00:26:06.280 I wasn't even
00:26:07.060 in contact
00:26:07.540 with one,
00:26:08.220 never mind
00:26:08.700 multiple.
00:26:10.000 I must
00:26:10.960 publish and
00:26:13.180 fully disclose
00:26:13.860 all that
00:26:14.560 content, and
00:26:15.740 it proved
00:26:16.200 nothing
00:26:16.900 whatsoever.
00:26:18.840 But,
00:26:19.320 before we
00:26:20.960 get off of
00:26:21.700 Russian collusion,
00:26:24.220 you know, we
00:26:24.480 waited long,
00:26:25.460 five years,
00:26:26.540 for the
00:26:27.100 Durham report.
00:26:29.200 Yet, Mr.
00:26:29.700 Durham didn't
00:26:30.140 address any
00:26:30.840 of these
00:26:31.200 issues whatsoever.
00:26:32.300 He seems to
00:26:32.920 have focused
00:26:33.920 solely on the
00:26:34.800 Steele dossier,
00:26:35.880 which we
00:26:36.400 already knew
00:26:37.040 was a fraud
00:26:38.380 paid for by
00:26:39.380 Hillary Clinton
00:26:40.000 with laundered
00:26:41.400 campaign funds.
00:26:42.860 But he never
00:26:43.680 addressed any
00:26:44.680 of these issues
00:26:45.880 whatsoever
00:26:46.660 regarding the
00:26:47.560 alleged hacking.
00:26:48.900 Did that
00:26:49.300 surprise you?
00:26:51.420 Yes.
00:26:52.440 I really,
00:26:53.400 I thought Durham
00:26:54.940 was going to
00:26:55.600 be more of
00:26:56.460 a stand-up
00:26:56.960 guy, and
00:26:58.140 he failed.
00:26:59.240 He chickened
00:26:59.940 out.
00:27:01.140 Look, you
00:27:02.380 were in
00:27:03.040 communication,
00:27:03.660 when Guccifer 2.0
00:27:04.820 was talking to
00:27:05.400 you, you're
00:27:05.600 talking to the
00:27:06.100 CIA.
00:27:06.940 That was a
00:27:07.580 CIA operation,
00:27:09.100 stone-cold,
00:27:10.100 you know, a
00:27:10.620 stone-cold CIA
00:27:12.740 operation.
00:27:13.560 Have no doubt
00:27:14.120 about that.
00:27:15.820 Because, you
00:27:17.140 know, when they
00:27:18.000 looked at, when
00:27:18.480 they created the
00:27:19.160 metadata for
00:27:21.140 the Guccifer 2.0
00:27:22.320 messages,
00:27:23.420 metadata are things
00:27:24.280 that you'll find
00:27:24.800 like in footers
00:27:25.680 or headers of
00:27:26.380 messages, they're
00:27:27.100 normally not
00:27:28.140 visible when you
00:27:29.660 read them, but
00:27:30.880 they put in the
00:27:32.140 name of Felix
00:27:33.040 Derzhinsky in
00:27:34.240 Russian script,
00:27:36.040 in Cyrillic
00:27:37.100 alphabet.
00:27:38.680 Well, Derzhinsky
00:27:39.340 was the first
00:27:40.060 head of, I
00:27:40.860 guess they
00:27:41.140 called it the
00:27:41.580 Cheka, and
00:27:42.260 then it became
00:27:42.920 later the
00:27:43.520 NKVD.
00:27:44.740 It was the
00:27:45.940 secret police for
00:27:46.860 Lenin.
00:27:48.060 So, if you're
00:27:49.460 trying to say,
00:27:50.080 hey, how do we
00:27:51.060 make this look
00:27:51.600 like it's Russian?
00:27:53.180 Or, it's like
00:27:53.840 say, how do we
00:27:54.600 make this look
00:27:55.120 like it's
00:27:55.800 associated with
00:27:56.520 Nazis?
00:27:57.080 Well, let's put
00:27:57.500 the name Adolf
00:27:58.120 Hitler in it.
00:27:58.780 Yeah, that'll
00:27:59.500 do it.
00:28:00.440 That's exactly
00:28:01.180 what they did.
00:28:02.440 So, this
00:28:03.160 Guccifer 2.0
00:28:04.140 character was
00:28:04.860 designed to
00:28:05.600 both entrap
00:28:06.400 and snare
00:28:07.060 and implicate
00:28:08.940 other people
00:28:09.520 as part of
00:28:11.160 this broader
00:28:11.760 Russian narrative.
00:28:12.520 It is, I
00:28:13.900 think it is
00:28:14.580 so important
00:28:15.820 for the
00:28:16.260 American people
00:28:17.000 to understand
00:28:17.740 that this,
00:28:19.940 the abuse
00:28:20.620 of the
00:28:21.080 intelligence
00:28:21.580 agencies,
00:28:22.300 and we're
00:28:22.700 not just
00:28:23.160 talking CIA,
00:28:25.760 FBI, but
00:28:26.680 it also
00:28:27.060 includes NSA.
00:28:28.960 The fact of
00:28:29.680 the matter
00:28:30.060 was starting
00:28:30.680 in the
00:28:31.160 summer of
00:28:32.240 2015,
00:28:34.040 Hillary Clinton
00:28:34.860 working through
00:28:35.480 John Brennan
00:28:36.160 convinced Brennan
00:28:37.580 to, they set
00:28:38.460 up a task
00:28:39.000 force, and
00:28:39.660 it was a
00:28:40.240 task force
00:28:40.940 that was
00:28:41.220 taking data
00:28:42.580 from the
00:28:44.220 National Security
00:28:45.040 Agency, which
00:28:45.820 had been
00:28:46.120 collected
00:28:46.640 illegally
00:28:47.620 against
00:28:48.480 Americans.
00:28:49.680 Some of
00:28:50.060 it had been
00:28:50.360 collected by
00:28:50.840 the Brits
00:28:51.360 and passed
00:28:51.980 to us, but
00:28:53.380 they were
00:28:53.980 targeting all
00:28:55.000 presidential
00:28:55.600 candidates, including
00:28:56.540 Bernie Sanders.
00:28:58.200 And then as
00:28:58.640 time went on
00:29:00.320 and they
00:29:00.700 realized that
00:29:01.560 Donald Trump
00:29:02.100 was likely to
00:29:02.760 be the
00:29:03.040 winner, then
00:29:03.940 they focused
00:29:04.440 all the
00:29:05.140 resources and
00:29:06.100 assets on
00:29:06.900 destroying him.
00:29:08.760 I mean, we
00:29:10.000 live in something
00:29:10.660 that I don't
00:29:11.400 even believe
00:29:11.840 that the
00:29:12.540 Soviet Union
00:29:13.660 in its worst
00:29:14.700 days was this
00:29:15.760 bad.
00:29:16.640 That's where
00:29:17.380 we are.
00:29:18.480 And so I
00:29:19.400 regret to
00:29:20.140 say, and
00:29:21.280 you can see
00:29:21.680 the posters
00:29:22.160 on the wall
00:29:23.380 behind me,
00:29:24.540 when I was
00:29:25.320 at state,
00:29:26.380 one of my
00:29:27.260 jobs was the
00:29:27.940 terrorism
00:29:28.260 rewards program.
00:29:29.280 I worked
00:29:29.580 closely with
00:29:30.320 the FBI on
00:29:31.160 that, with
00:29:31.500 Floyd Clark,
00:29:32.240 who was the
00:29:32.560 deputy director.
00:29:33.940 So I don't
00:29:34.500 have an
00:29:34.940 animus towards
00:29:35.680 the FBI,
00:29:36.980 but I can
00:29:37.840 tell you that
00:29:38.240 my friends
00:29:38.800 who I worked
00:29:39.900 with back
00:29:40.400 then, and
00:29:41.460 they watch
00:29:41.920 what has
00:29:42.280 happened to
00:29:42.840 the FBI
00:29:43.420 today, to
00:29:44.240 the CIA.
00:29:45.980 It's
00:29:46.580 appalling.
00:29:47.700 They're
00:29:47.840 politicized
00:29:49.160 organs of
00:29:51.120 the Democratic
00:29:51.940 Party.
00:29:52.980 They are a
00:29:53.760 danger to
00:29:54.880 Americans and
00:29:55.820 American freedom.
00:29:56.600 a difficult
00:29:59.200 question, Larry.
00:30:00.660 I've been a
00:30:02.560 friend of
00:30:02.860 Donald Trump's
00:30:03.440 for 45
00:30:04.000 years, and
00:30:05.900 I fear
00:30:06.440 another attempt
00:30:07.220 on his
00:30:07.620 life.
00:30:08.640 I think he
00:30:09.800 is such an
00:30:10.340 existential threat
00:30:11.380 to the
00:30:11.720 establishment
00:30:12.140 and to
00:30:13.620 those who
00:30:14.120 have many
00:30:15.140 deep crimes
00:30:15.980 they have
00:30:16.480 committed and
00:30:17.900 who fear
00:30:18.520 the possibility
00:30:19.780 of being
00:30:20.120 brought to
00:30:20.600 justice.
00:30:21.720 So I'm not
00:30:22.280 trying to
00:30:22.560 wish this
00:30:23.020 into happening,
00:30:24.580 but is
00:30:25.840 that, I
00:30:26.460 mean, the
00:30:27.920 CIA, pardon
00:30:28.920 me, the
00:30:29.180 Secret
00:30:29.920 Service's
00:30:30.500 failures here
00:30:31.060 are so
00:30:31.420 manifest,
00:30:32.680 leaving security
00:30:34.180 to them again,
00:30:35.400 even with a
00:30:35.960 beefed up
00:30:36.540 detail and
00:30:37.280 so on.
00:30:38.200 I'm really
00:30:38.880 scared about
00:30:39.960 this.
00:30:40.220 I'm worried
00:30:40.480 about this.
00:30:42.520 Are those
00:30:44.180 fears unfounded
00:30:45.600 or should I
00:30:46.320 be concerned?
00:30:47.660 Not entirely
00:30:48.220 justified.
00:30:49.220 In fact, one
00:30:50.100 thing I really
00:30:51.420 worry about is
00:30:52.340 the use of a
00:30:53.940 drone on
00:30:54.680 Donald Trump's
00:30:55.480 aircraft when
00:30:56.400 it's either
00:30:56.780 taking off
00:30:57.420 or landing
00:30:57.940 because you
00:30:59.240 can easily
00:30:59.680 fly a drone
00:31:00.620 into the
00:31:01.120 engines, just
00:31:01.680 like the
00:31:02.080 bird strike
00:31:02.680 that took
00:31:03.060 place on
00:31:04.440 that plane
00:31:05.280 that flew
00:31:05.620 out of
00:31:06.080 LaGuardia
00:31:07.320 with Captain
00:31:09.560 Sully, as
00:31:10.740 they called
00:31:11.120 him.
00:31:12.100 So I don't
00:31:13.600 think they're
00:31:13.980 going to
00:31:14.180 stop.
00:31:15.320 And frankly,
00:31:18.980 the Secret
00:31:19.660 Service has
00:31:20.280 been sloppy.
00:31:21.360 I mean,
00:31:21.560 Roger, the
00:31:22.620 last time I
00:31:23.260 think I saw
00:31:23.900 you, but
00:31:24.760 we just
00:31:25.140 crossed paths
00:31:25.940 at Mar-a-Lago
00:31:27.100 back in
00:31:27.820 November of
00:31:28.520 22.
00:31:29.160 It was a
00:31:30.260 Lincoln Day
00:31:30.800 dinner or
00:31:31.380 something.
00:31:32.900 And my
00:31:34.760 wife and
00:31:35.320 I, we
00:31:36.420 were there
00:31:36.720 with the
00:31:37.140 guys that
00:31:37.840 run the
00:31:38.100 Gateway
00:31:38.340 Pundit.
00:31:39.420 And I
00:31:40.660 carry concealed
00:31:41.620 firearms.
00:31:42.980 So we had
00:31:43.600 my concealed
00:31:44.600 firearms in
00:31:45.440 the car,
00:31:46.440 locked up.
00:31:47.120 I had them
00:31:47.460 locked in the
00:31:47.980 center console.
00:31:48.940 But we drove
00:31:49.700 on to Mar-a-Lago
00:31:50.560 and the
00:31:51.040 Secret Service
00:31:51.580 agent said,
00:31:52.140 hey, do you
00:31:52.500 have any
00:31:52.980 firearms?
00:31:53.640 I said,
00:31:54.320 well, yeah,
00:31:54.920 I do.
00:31:55.380 They're right
00:31:55.720 here.
00:31:55.980 And they go,
00:31:56.180 oh, no, you
00:31:56.700 can't be.
00:31:57.060 I have those
00:31:57.400 here.
00:31:58.080 So I drove
00:31:59.060 off, went
00:31:59.960 back to the
00:32:00.380 hotel, locked
00:32:01.060 them up, came
00:32:02.180 back, and
00:32:03.580 Secret Service
00:32:04.300 agent said,
00:32:04.940 did you get rid
00:32:05.280 of those
00:32:05.500 firearms?
00:32:05.940 I said, yeah,
00:32:06.440 okay, go on
00:32:07.140 through.
00:32:08.080 I go, wait a
00:32:09.420 second.
00:32:10.140 If I told you I
00:32:11.080 had firearms, then
00:32:12.600 you should at
00:32:13.080 least check,
00:32:13.860 inspect, and
00:32:14.500 make sure I
00:32:15.160 don't have
00:32:16.040 firearms.
00:32:16.640 Because then
00:32:17.500 once they, you
00:32:18.240 know, valet
00:32:18.680 parked the
00:32:19.220 car, I
00:32:20.300 went inside.
00:32:21.220 If I had
00:32:22.160 been carrying
00:32:22.680 concealed, all
00:32:23.380 I had to
00:32:23.700 tell the
00:32:23.960 guy, all
00:32:24.740 I had to
00:32:24.960 do is lie.
00:32:25.500 I said, no,
00:32:26.120 I don't have
00:32:26.580 anything.
00:32:27.940 And I
00:32:28.160 could have,
00:32:28.740 there was no
00:32:29.620 other screening
00:32:30.320 from that
00:32:30.980 point on at
00:32:32.480 that event.
00:32:33.000 I could have
00:32:33.340 walked in
00:32:33.740 there with a
00:32:34.140 firearm.
00:32:35.560 And so it
00:32:36.940 concerns me that
00:32:38.000 the Secret
00:32:38.500 Service is that
00:32:39.400 sloppy.
00:32:40.080 It was sloppy
00:32:40.640 back then.
00:32:42.120 That was not
00:32:43.260 good security.
00:32:45.260 And there's,
00:32:46.780 you know,
00:32:47.180 security is like
00:32:47.960 firearms.
00:32:48.860 It's black and
00:32:49.540 white.
00:32:49.900 There's no gray
00:32:51.240 area.
00:32:52.660 You know,
00:32:53.740 there's no, I
00:32:54.280 tell people,
00:32:54.760 there's no such
00:32:55.300 thing as a
00:32:55.840 transgender firearm
00:32:57.260 or transgender
00:32:58.080 cartridge.
00:33:00.040 It either, it's
00:33:01.100 either active or
00:33:02.780 it's not active.
00:33:04.200 You can either
00:33:04.740 fire it or you
00:33:05.700 can't fire it.
00:33:06.660 And with
00:33:06.980 security, you've
00:33:08.060 either got it
00:33:08.620 secure or you
00:33:09.440 don't have it
00:33:10.040 secure.
00:33:10.400 But
00:33:11.320 security means
00:33:12.860 you check
00:33:14.200 everybody.
00:33:14.920 You don't
00:33:15.120 say, oh, so
00:33:16.060 you're a friend
00:33:16.500 of Donald.
00:33:17.160 Oh, we'll let
00:33:17.680 you through.
00:33:18.220 Come on
00:33:18.540 through.
00:33:18.840 Because you're
00:33:19.300 a friend of
00:33:19.720 Donald.
00:33:20.180 No.
00:33:21.540 If the
00:33:22.440 standard is we
00:33:23.220 want to make
00:33:23.580 sure nobody's
00:33:24.240 carrying a
00:33:24.720 firearm through
00:33:25.360 that checkpoint,
00:33:26.660 everybody gets
00:33:27.300 checked.
00:33:29.900 All right.
00:33:30.600 I'm really
00:33:31.280 sorry that we
00:33:31.980 have to leave
00:33:32.760 it there because
00:33:33.460 I have so many
00:33:34.100 other things I
00:33:34.760 would like to
00:33:35.140 ask you.
00:33:35.640 I want to
00:33:35.860 thank Larry
00:33:36.360 Johnson, former
00:33:37.140 CIA officer and
00:33:38.340 intelligence analyst
00:33:39.240 and former
00:33:40.680 planer and
00:33:42.060 advisor at the
00:33:42.840 U.S.
00:33:43.060 State Department's
00:33:43.860 Office of
00:33:44.400 Counterterrorism for
00:33:45.500 joining us today.
00:33:46.780 This has been one
00:33:47.320 of the best
00:33:47.740 interviews we've
00:33:48.580 ever had.
00:33:49.160 Larry, thank
00:33:49.620 you for being
00:33:50.560 available.
00:33:51.020 I saw you on
00:33:52.040 with Stephen
00:33:52.780 Gardner.
00:33:53.720 You were
00:33:54.000 terrific.
00:33:54.560 It was a good
00:33:55.160 interview.
00:33:56.020 And I'm glad we
00:33:56.780 were able to
00:33:57.220 connect.
00:33:57.720 God bless you,
00:33:58.280 my friend, and
00:33:58.900 thank you for
00:33:59.600 being in the
00:34:00.080 Stone Zone.
00:34:01.220 Thank you,
00:34:01.900 Roger.
00:34:02.280 Appreciate it.
00:34:02.900 Folks, you
00:34:05.740 may have read
00:34:06.900 that Mrs. Stone
00:34:08.260 and I owe
00:34:09.280 the IRS over
00:34:10.680 $2 million
00:34:11.600 in back taxes.
00:34:14.280 Actually, that's
00:34:15.300 not true.
00:34:15.960 We owe them
00:34:16.460 about $420,000
00:34:18.780 in back taxes.
00:34:20.180 But the rest
00:34:20.960 of the $2 million
00:34:21.720 are interest
00:34:23.040 and penalties
00:34:23.980 which the IRS
00:34:25.600 refuses to
00:34:27.160 waive.
00:34:27.940 Normally,
00:34:28.900 in an offer
00:34:30.240 and compromise
00:34:31.280 situation,
00:34:32.440 you can
00:34:33.220 negotiate those
00:34:34.140 numbers down.
00:34:36.080 The hardest
00:34:36.500 thing is to
00:34:37.260 reach an
00:34:37.860 agreement if
00:34:39.260 you don't have
00:34:40.100 that money,
00:34:40.740 which we
00:34:41.240 certainly don't.
00:34:42.600 The hardest
00:34:43.040 thing is to
00:34:43.900 reach an
00:34:44.780 agreement with
00:34:45.600 the IRS that
00:34:47.140 allows you to
00:34:48.000 pay over time
00:34:49.460 based on your
00:34:50.740 income and after
00:34:51.960 you have to
00:34:52.480 submit substantial
00:34:54.140 financial
00:34:55.040 documentation.
00:34:56.840 If you're in
00:34:58.020 this situation
00:34:58.860 where you owe
00:35:00.300 thousands or
00:35:01.900 even hundreds
00:35:03.780 of thousands
00:35:04.520 or tens
00:35:05.220 of thousands
00:35:05.820 of dollars,
00:35:06.720 no matter
00:35:07.100 what you owe
00:35:08.220 to the IRS,
00:35:10.060 remember that
00:35:10.860 they are not
00:35:12.240 your friends.
00:35:13.960 Don't waive
00:35:14.900 your rights
00:35:15.660 and speak with
00:35:16.660 them on your
00:35:17.380 own.
00:35:17.700 I strongly
00:35:18.820 urge you to
00:35:20.440 contact people
00:35:21.760 at the
00:35:22.140 Tax Network

00:35:46.160 if you have
00:35:46.700 the means to
00:35:47.480 pay right
00:35:48.280 now or you
00:35:49.480 don't have
00:35:50.240 the means to
00:35:50.820 pay and have
00:35:51.880 to pay over
00:35:52.760 time.

00:35:54.540 help you resolve

00:36:27.840 That is our
00:36:30.740 commercial break
00:36:31.620 for the day.
00:36:33.120 Is John
00:36:33.940 Tobacco
00:36:34.400 online?
00:36:35.660 Our next guest
00:36:36.560 has incredible
00:36:37.860 support.
00:36:38.900 All right.
00:36:40.480 Let me then
00:36:41.640 I will hold
00:36:43.300 forth on the
00:36:44.040 political situation
00:36:45.320 and hopefully
00:36:47.080 we can get
00:36:48.280 him online.
00:36:50.660 We are
00:36:51.740 in the
00:36:53.680 throes
00:36:54.160 yesterday
00:36:54.680 of a
00:36:55.340 report
00:36:55.800 by the
00:36:56.280 New York
00:36:56.640 Post
00:36:57.080 that Barack
00:36:58.780 Obama
00:36:59.400 and his
00:37:00.460 wife,
00:37:00.900 of course,
00:37:01.180 Michelle Obama
00:37:01.940 have withheld
00:37:03.680 their
00:37:04.600 endorsement
00:37:06.340 from Kamala
00:37:07.880 Harris.
00:37:08.960 Now,
00:37:09.380 Kamala Harris
00:37:10.100 is in the
00:37:10.940 middle of
00:37:11.520 a media
00:37:13.720 I would call
00:37:15.900 honeymoon
00:37:16.460 where we're
00:37:17.460 focused on
00:37:18.120 the fact that
00:37:18.720 she's the
00:37:19.160 first woman
00:37:20.260 candidate
00:37:21.020 to be
00:37:21.840 nominated.
00:37:23.200 She's the
00:37:24.000 first black
00:37:25.020 woman candidate
00:37:25.900 to be
00:37:27.040 nominated.
00:37:27.840 She would be
00:37:28.140 the second,
00:37:29.100 if she is
00:37:29.640 nominated,
00:37:30.280 she would be
00:37:30.560 the second
00:37:31.220 woman nominated
00:37:32.860 for the
00:37:33.400 presidency,
00:37:34.180 both by
00:37:35.300 the Democrat
00:37:36.140 Party.
00:37:37.580 It is
00:37:38.640 interesting
00:37:39.840 that the way
00:37:41.640 their process
00:37:42.400 works,
00:37:43.840 that there is
00:37:44.620 no input
00:37:45.440 here by the
00:37:46.720 voters.
00:37:47.100 Black Lives
00:37:48.720 Matter,
00:37:49.560 of all
00:37:49.980 people,
00:37:50.600 or I
00:37:50.900 should say
00:37:51.240 of all
00:37:51.540 organizations,
00:37:52.480 recognized
00:37:53.040 yesterday
00:37:53.620 that there
00:37:55.640 was no
00:37:56.380 voter
00:37:57.160 involvement
00:37:57.700 here,
00:37:58.120 no democratic
00:37:59.080 process,
00:38:00.280 and they
00:38:00.580 called for
00:38:01.100 a national
00:38:01.980 primary in
00:38:02.880 which any
00:38:03.820 Democrat
00:38:04.420 can vote.
00:38:05.840 That would
00:38:06.320 presumably be
00:38:07.220 done online
00:38:08.500 and virally.
00:38:10.480 I don't
00:38:11.160 think that is
00:38:11.980 likely.
00:38:12.500 In fact,
00:38:13.040 in reaction
00:38:13.780 to that,
00:38:14.800 it appears
00:38:15.400 like the
00:38:16.160 Democrat
00:38:16.780 National
00:38:17.400 Committee
00:38:17.960 is trying
00:38:18.620 to expedite
00:38:20.120 their selection
00:38:21.120 process so
00:38:22.420 they can
00:38:22.760 actually lock
00:38:24.240 Kamala Harris
00:38:25.400 in as the
00:38:27.060 Democrat
00:38:27.480 candidate prior
00:38:29.000 to their
00:38:29.620 August 19th
00:38:31.540 convention.
00:38:32.820 Why this
00:38:33.800 rush to do
00:38:35.000 so?
00:38:35.780 Well, a
00:38:36.480 couple reasons.
00:38:37.800 Obama, as the
00:38:39.720 New York Post
00:38:40.220 pointed out
00:38:40.860 yesterday, who
00:38:42.060 is without any
00:38:42.780 question the
00:38:43.560 most influential
00:38:45.320 Democrat in
00:38:47.800 the country,
00:38:48.840 certainly one of
00:38:49.920 the most
00:38:50.140 influential people
00:38:51.000 in the country,
00:38:52.420 was, first of
00:38:53.340 all, principally
00:38:54.080 responsible for
00:38:56.120 the move to
00:38:57.560 muscle Joe out
00:38:59.360 of the
00:38:59.880 presidential race
00:39:00.940 Chicago-style.
00:39:02.660 It was Barack
00:39:03.980 Obama who cut
00:39:05.360 off the campaign
00:39:06.460 money.
00:39:07.260 It is Barack
00:39:08.260 Obama who, I
00:39:09.440 believe, convinced
00:39:10.320 actor George
00:39:11.460 Clooney to
00:39:12.680 write the
00:39:13.280 op-ed piece
00:39:14.200 for the
00:39:14.600 New York
00:39:14.960 Times, telling
00:39:16.220 Joe that he
00:39:17.060 needed to
00:39:17.760 drop.
00:39:18.580 It is Barack
00:39:19.480 Obama who
00:39:20.320 convinced Nancy
00:39:21.720 Pelosi to
00:39:23.700 contact Biden
00:39:25.640 and tell him
00:39:26.260 to throw in
00:39:27.440 the towel.
00:39:28.540 It was Barack
00:39:29.820 Obama who
00:39:30.660 lined up
00:39:31.760 Chuck Schumer,
00:39:33.040 the Senate
00:39:33.700 majority leader,
00:39:35.500 for the same
00:39:36.600 purpose.
00:39:37.680 So Joe is
00:39:39.220 very, very
00:39:40.760 angry.
00:39:42.180 Joe actually,
00:39:43.360 according to a
00:39:44.080 source of mine
00:39:44.840 that I trust,
00:39:46.280 the same source
00:39:47.040 who told me
00:39:47.600 last Friday
00:39:48.360 that Joe would
00:39:49.580 resign from the
00:39:50.800 race, drop
00:39:51.380 from the race
00:39:51.960 on Sunday
00:39:53.080 by letter,
00:39:54.560 told me that
00:39:55.620 Biden's response
00:39:57.260 was that,
00:39:59.360 and there's a
00:40:00.060 quote,
00:40:00.900 well, now I
00:40:01.520 won't go down
00:40:02.320 in history like
00:40:03.220 FDR, LBJ,
00:40:05.760 or even Bill
00:40:06.700 Clinton as one
00:40:08.360 of our greatest
00:40:09.000 presidents.
00:40:10.160 I'll give you
00:40:10.800 some idea
00:40:11.620 of the current
00:40:13.820 mindset of Joe
00:40:15.840 Biden.
00:40:16.800 Last night's
00:40:17.640 presentation from
00:40:19.880 the Oval
00:40:20.500 Office was odd
00:40:22.440 from a number
00:40:23.080 of points of view.
00:40:24.060 First of all,
00:40:24.880 it was inappropriate.
00:40:25.900 That was a strictly
00:40:27.160 political address
00:40:28.980 to the nation.
00:40:30.040 It should have
00:40:30.340 been paid for
00:40:30.980 by Joe Biden's
00:40:32.560 campaign committee
00:40:33.720 rather than the
00:40:34.940 American taxpayers.
00:40:36.140 There's $280
00:40:38.160 million there
00:40:39.400 that could have
00:40:39.820 been used to
00:40:40.380 pay for that
00:40:40.920 broadcast.
00:40:42.120 Secondly, I'm
00:40:43.280 not sure what
00:40:43.800 Biden was doing
00:40:44.540 with his hands.
00:40:45.360 It was very,
00:40:46.960 very odd.
00:40:48.960 Thirdly, he just
00:40:49.860 continues to lie.
00:40:51.260 I mean, this guy
00:40:52.040 lying is second
00:40:53.080 nature.
00:40:54.100 The irony here
00:40:54.940 of attacking
00:40:55.540 Donald Trump
00:40:56.260 of lying when
00:40:57.500 Joe Biden said
00:40:58.320 that border
00:40:58.880 crossings under
00:40:59.760 his administration
00:41:00.660 today were
00:41:02.380 lower than at
00:41:04.100 any point in
00:41:05.160 the Trump
00:41:05.740 administration.
00:41:06.620 That's just a
00:41:07.360 flat-out lie.
00:41:10.260 He clearly is
00:41:11.660 trying to reassert
00:41:12.580 himself as a
00:41:14.180 player.
00:41:15.060 He's very angry
00:41:16.340 at Barack Obama,
00:41:17.680 who he believes
00:41:18.740 pushed him out
00:41:20.280 of the race.
00:41:22.680 The New York
00:41:23.640 Post highlighted
00:41:24.460 the fact that
00:41:25.040 Obama doesn't
00:41:25.840 intend to endorse
00:41:26.780 anyone prior to
00:41:28.400 their selection
00:41:29.060 process, which
00:41:30.320 leaves him free
00:41:31.540 to maneuver
00:41:32.500 behind the
00:41:34.060 scenes in an
00:41:35.880 attempt to
00:41:36.680 find another
00:41:37.820 nominee.
00:41:39.260 When or why
00:41:40.300 would that
00:41:40.740 happen?
00:41:41.400 Well, polling
00:41:43.500 that anyone
00:41:44.180 looks at at
00:41:45.180 this juncture
00:41:45.960 would be
00:41:46.840 somewhat
00:41:47.340 questionable
00:41:48.020 because you
00:41:48.800 have these
00:41:49.800 cataclysmic
00:41:50.620 events all
00:41:51.400 happening in
00:41:52.620 rapid succession.
00:41:54.000 First, there
00:41:54.580 is the attempted
00:41:55.680 assassination of
00:41:56.740 Donald Trump.
00:41:57.940 Every day, we
00:41:58.720 seem to learn
00:41:59.260 some new fact
00:42:00.280 or at least
00:42:00.840 allegation about
00:42:02.480 that, which
00:42:03.320 is shocking
00:42:04.220 and keeps
00:42:04.780 it in the
00:42:05.260 news.
00:42:06.220 Then you
00:42:06.600 had a highly
00:42:07.200 successful and
00:42:08.680 unified Republican
00:42:09.740 national
00:42:10.540 convention.
00:42:12.200 Then after
00:42:13.560 that, you
00:42:15.080 had, of
00:42:15.920 course, the
00:42:17.500 dropping out
00:42:19.400 of the race
00:42:20.120 by Joe Biden.
00:42:22.380 Somewhere in the
00:42:23.000 middle there, you
00:42:23.680 had this
00:42:24.260 national
00:42:24.960 internet, or I
00:42:27.420 should say
00:42:28.000 cyber outage
00:42:29.540 by crowd
00:42:31.440 strike, that
00:42:32.740 took up an
00:42:33.400 entire news
00:42:34.440 cycle.
00:42:35.640 So I guess
00:42:36.200 the point I'm
00:42:36.720 trying to make
00:42:37.240 here is that
00:42:37.980 it's very
00:42:38.880 hard to
00:42:39.900 poll the
00:42:40.800 electorate in
00:42:42.020 the eye of
00:42:42.620 the storm.
00:42:43.500 One has to
00:42:44.160 wait until
00:42:45.400 things settle
00:42:46.460 down, until
00:42:47.340 voters have the
00:42:48.600 opportunity to
00:42:49.980 process all of
00:42:51.560 this information.
00:42:52.320 the earliest
00:42:54.220 polls that I've
00:42:55.300 seen, in
00:42:55.880 which I have
00:42:56.400 some confidence,
00:42:58.060 show that
00:42:59.000 Donald Trump is
00:43:00.020 still in a
00:43:00.640 close race.
00:43:01.680 That is not
00:43:02.340 surprising.
00:43:03.120 The country
00:43:03.600 continues to
00:43:04.740 be badly, but
00:43:06.740 almost evenly
00:43:07.740 divided.
00:43:09.080 But I
00:43:10.060 believe that
00:43:11.080 when things
00:43:11.880 do settle
00:43:12.740 down, we
00:43:14.080 are going to
00:43:14.460 see Kamala
00:43:15.360 Harris in
00:43:16.120 about the
00:43:16.760 position Joe
00:43:17.540 Biden is.
00:43:18.240 In other
00:43:18.580 words, she
00:43:19.820 will be
00:43:20.240 trailing Donald
00:43:21.280 Trump as she
00:43:21.940 is today in
00:43:23.040 the early
00:43:23.440 polls in
00:43:24.420 every swing
00:43:25.220 state, also
00:43:26.400 trailing him
00:43:27.280 in the states
00:43:28.320 that now
00:43:29.400 appear to
00:43:30.380 be within
00:43:31.260 Trump's grasp.
00:43:32.620 I speak of
00:43:33.600 Virginia, New
00:43:35.580 Mexico, New
00:43:36.840 Jersey, and
00:43:37.700 Maine, all
00:43:38.900 states Trump
00:43:39.920 lost in
00:43:40.600 2020, all
00:43:42.000 states that he
00:43:42.640 could conceivably
00:43:43.620 win in this
00:43:45.180 election.
00:43:46.760 So if we
00:43:47.700 get to
00:43:48.360 August 1st
00:43:49.960 and Kamala
00:43:50.780 Harris is
00:43:51.640 trailing, and
00:43:53.160 also if her
00:43:54.080 performance on
00:43:55.280 the stump is
00:43:56.840 not smooth and
00:43:58.360 she doesn't
00:43:58.920 impress, well, I
00:44:00.340 think it's
00:44:01.300 important to
00:44:01.880 note that
00:44:02.520 there's nothing
00:44:03.740 legally or
00:44:05.300 within party
00:44:06.000 rules that
00:44:07.400 binds the
00:44:08.500 delegates of
00:44:09.260 the convention
00:44:09.820 to Kamala
00:44:10.860 Harris, which
00:44:12.000 means they
00:44:12.440 could have a
00:44:13.340 different nominee.
00:44:14.860 They're supposedly
00:44:15.840 going to an
00:44:16.580 open convention.
00:44:17.820 That would
00:44:18.180 presumably mean
00:44:19.500 that another
00:44:20.660 name could
00:44:21.380 be put in
00:44:22.520 nomination.
00:44:23.920 Therefore, I'm
00:44:24.640 going to
00:44:25.140 continue to
00:44:27.160 stick to my
00:44:28.140 prediction that
00:44:28.840 the ultimate
00:44:29.620 nominee here
00:44:30.600 will be
00:44:32.020 Michelle Obama.
00:44:33.080 I still
00:44:33.360 believe that
00:44:33.780 that is a
00:44:34.420 real possibility.
00:44:36.000 If it looks
00:44:36.860 like Kamala
00:44:37.500 Harris is
00:44:38.060 going to
00:44:38.600 lose, well,
00:44:39.880 they'll pull
00:44:40.340 the plug on
00:44:41.120 her the same
00:44:42.260 way they
00:44:42.660 pulled the
00:44:43.240 plug on
00:44:44.020 Joe Biden.
00:44:45.420 So I'm
00:44:46.540 not changing
00:44:47.260 that prediction.
00:44:49.040 But then
00:44:49.500 there's my
00:44:50.160 other prediction.
00:44:51.180 So I
00:44:51.700 predicted going
00:44:53.020 back to
00:44:53.600 2018 in
00:44:55.580 an interview
00:44:56.200 with New
00:44:57.440 American
00:44:57.840 Magazine that
00:44:59.180 Joe Biden
00:44:59.700 would not be
00:45:00.640 a candidate
00:45:01.120 for re-election.
00:45:02.980 Pardon me,
00:45:03.560 let me rephrase.
00:45:04.900 I predicted
00:45:05.840 in 2018 in
00:45:08.720 an interview
00:45:09.500 with New
00:45:10.040 American
00:45:10.520 Magazine that
00:45:11.700 there would
00:45:12.040 be an
00:45:12.400 assassination
00:45:12.880 attempt on
00:45:14.060 Donald Trump,
00:45:15.300 and now there
00:45:15.980 has been.
00:45:17.000 I predicted
00:45:17.700 at Turning
00:45:18.360 Point USA
00:45:19.340 over a year
00:45:20.780 ago that
00:45:21.640 Joe Biden
00:45:22.280 would not
00:45:23.080 be the
00:45:23.780 nominee of
00:45:24.760 the party.
00:45:25.740 So I'm
00:45:26.100 now two
00:45:26.680 for two.
00:45:27.780 I predicted
00:45:28.660 that Michelle
00:45:29.500 Obama would
00:45:30.280 be the
00:45:30.680 nominee.
00:45:31.560 I may or
00:45:32.420 may not
00:45:32.900 yet be
00:45:33.540 right about
00:45:34.160 that.
00:45:35.040 But then
00:45:35.380 on July
00:45:35.980 6th, I
00:45:36.940 predicted
00:45:37.440 that Kamala
00:45:38.780 Harris
00:45:39.280 would
00:45:40.480 choose
00:45:42.660 Pennsylvania
00:45:43.660 Governor
00:45:44.440 Josh Shapiro
00:45:46.440 as her
00:45:47.960 running mate.
00:45:48.840 I want to
00:45:49.600 reiterate
00:45:50.140 that prediction
00:45:53.020 because I
00:45:53.760 believe that
00:45:55.180 it is still
00:45:57.200 accurate.
00:45:59.720 I'm very
00:46:00.760 anxious to
00:46:01.340 see how
00:46:02.020 this all
00:46:03.040 works out.
00:46:05.420 I really
00:46:06.460 do fear
00:46:07.380 another
00:46:08.240 assassination
00:46:08.880 attempt on
00:46:09.840 President Donald
00:46:10.720 Trump, as I
00:46:11.520 said earlier
00:46:12.480 in the show.
00:46:14.180 I'm very
00:46:15.240 concerned that
00:46:17.500 too much trust
00:46:18.340 is being put
00:46:19.060 in the
00:46:19.440 Secret Service.
00:46:20.340 Now, I was
00:46:21.780 told back in
00:46:22.840 June of last
00:46:23.840 year, actually
00:46:25.980 during Charlie
00:46:27.160 Kirk's great
00:46:27.840 Turning Point
00:46:28.440 USA conference
00:46:29.400 in Palm
00:46:29.960 Beach, that
00:46:31.600 the Trump
00:46:32.520 requests for
00:46:33.500 additional
00:46:34.080 personnel and
00:46:35.640 manpower and
00:46:36.640 resources for
00:46:37.960 his protection
00:46:38.700 had been
00:46:39.360 routinely
00:46:39.940 denied by
00:46:42.220 the Department
00:46:43.720 of Homeland
00:46:44.140 Security and
00:46:46.020 Secretary Mayorkas.
00:46:48.320 The Secret
00:46:48.780 Service specifically
00:46:49.760 denied that
00:46:50.700 that same day
00:46:51.560 I said it
00:46:52.380 publicly, reported
00:46:53.920 it here on
00:46:54.520 the Stone
00:46:54.920 Zone, only
00:46:56.320 to backtrack
00:46:57.460 and admit
00:46:58.920 days later
00:46:59.820 that, in
00:47:00.500 fact, they
00:47:02.080 had denied
00:47:02.940 all of those
00:47:03.860 requests for
00:47:05.200 additional
00:47:06.280 funding and
00:47:08.680 personnel to
00:47:09.460 perfect Trump.
00:47:10.840 I don't
00:47:11.660 believe anything
00:47:12.620 said by the
00:47:14.040 Secret Service.
00:47:15.460 I'm still very
00:47:16.180 curious about
00:47:17.500 the role of
00:47:18.740 a man named
00:47:19.420 Maxwell
00:47:20.220 Yerick, if
00:47:21.500 any.
00:47:22.440 Now, as I
00:47:23.540 said on
00:47:24.440 X, a
00:47:25.880 source within
00:47:27.940 Pennsylvania law
00:47:28.960 enforcement,
00:47:29.620 someone just
00:47:30.960 based on their
00:47:31.660 position and
00:47:32.400 record, I
00:47:33.080 trust, told
00:47:34.540 me that a
00:47:35.960 man named
00:47:36.500 Maxwell
00:47:37.240 Yerick, who
00:47:38.520 has a prior
00:47:39.480 record of
00:47:40.380 assault on
00:47:41.900 Trump supporters,
00:47:42.900 I think on
00:47:43.320 two occasions,
00:47:44.660 who actually
00:47:45.320 fought in
00:47:46.080 Ukraine as
00:47:46.840 a mercenary
00:47:47.600 who was or
00:47:49.680 is a member
00:47:51.020 of Antifa,
00:47:53.160 was actually
00:47:54.740 the shooter
00:47:55.520 rather than
00:47:56.420 Mr.
00:47:56.880 Crooks.
00:47:57.900 I'm not
00:47:58.340 saying Crooks
00:47:58.920 is or is not
00:47:59.900 the shooter.
00:48:00.900 I'm not saying
00:48:01.660 that Yerick is
00:48:02.580 or is not
00:48:03.440 the shooter.
00:48:04.080 What I'm
00:48:04.320 saying is that
00:48:05.460 I have these
00:48:06.480 reports.
00:48:08.060 The Warren
00:48:08.900 Commission
00:48:09.340 insisted that
00:48:10.760 Lee Harvey
00:48:11.220 Oswald shot
00:48:12.580 John F.
00:48:13.380 Kennedy.
00:48:14.940 That was
00:48:15.980 not accurate.
00:48:17.620 So is
00:48:18.640 Crooks really
00:48:19.820 the man who
00:48:20.660 shot at
00:48:21.120 Trump?
00:48:21.820 We don't
00:48:22.680 know.
00:48:23.400 All right,
00:48:23.860 John Tobacco,
00:48:25.120 who I think
00:48:25.900 is, without
00:48:26.440 any question,
00:48:27.900 the smartest
00:48:28.520 guy on
00:48:29.400 Wall Street,
00:48:30.240 does a
00:48:30.660 great show
00:48:31.440 Newsmax,
00:48:33.000 the wise
00:48:33.560 guys,
00:48:34.500 but a
00:48:35.200 guy who
00:48:35.640 is not
00:48:36.060 only a
00:48:37.180 great
00:48:37.420 entrepreneur,
00:48:38.200 a great
00:48:38.400 businessman,
00:48:39.100 a great
00:48:39.440 trader,
00:48:40.440 a great
00:48:40.840 analyst of
00:48:41.800 what's going
00:48:42.160 on in
00:48:42.480 Wall Street,
00:48:43.160 but also
00:48:43.900 someone who's
00:48:44.800 been in the
00:48:45.340 forefront of
00:48:46.160 protecting New
00:48:46.840 York communities
00:48:47.700 from this
00:48:48.680 influx of
00:48:49.840 illegal migrants,
00:48:52.040 who's been,
00:48:52.720 I think,
00:48:53.440 one of the
00:48:53.720 most articulate
00:48:54.420 critics of
00:48:55.260 Mayor Eric
00:48:56.300 Adams and
00:48:57.020 his bungling
00:48:58.220 of this
00:48:58.880 issue,
00:48:59.260 a proud
00:49:00.640 son of
00:49:01.380 Staten
00:49:01.700 Island,
00:49:02.280 New York,
00:49:03.240 John Tobacco
00:49:04.460 joins us
00:49:05.180 now.
00:49:06.660 Roger,
00:49:07.240 thanks for
00:49:07.640 having me.
00:49:09.280 Wow,
00:49:09.840 John,
00:49:10.140 that's a
00:49:10.440 great-looking
00:49:10.860 jacket you
00:49:11.400 got there.
00:49:12.920 Well,
00:49:13.620 I heard you
00:49:14.560 a couple of
00:49:15.160 weeks ago
00:49:15.700 on your
00:49:16.180 radio show
00:49:17.020 in New
00:49:17.360 York on
00:49:17.840 77 WABC
00:49:19.360 refer to
00:49:20.560 someone as
00:49:21.060 a boulevardier,
00:49:22.920 and then when
00:49:24.060 I went and
00:49:24.520 looked it up,
00:49:25.060 I said,
00:49:25.500 oh,
00:49:25.740 boy,
00:49:26.000 I got to
00:49:26.400 acquire a
00:49:27.100 new title.
00:49:27.640 So I
00:49:28.480 thought you'd
00:49:29.020 like the
00:49:29.560 oatmeal and
00:49:30.800 black check
00:49:31.520 with the
00:49:31.980 subtle,
00:49:32.440 solid tie.
00:49:34.180 The best
00:49:35.040 part of it,
00:49:35.580 John,
00:49:35.780 is the
00:49:36.140 peak
00:49:36.420 capels on
00:49:37.240 a single
00:49:37.960 suit.
00:49:38.460 That is
00:49:38.880 very,
00:49:40.180 very good.
00:49:40.860 Anyway,
00:49:41.880 we're
00:49:42.240 clothes horses,
00:49:43.000 folks,
00:49:43.320 just excuse
00:49:43.940 us.
00:49:45.180 You have
00:49:46.140 some shocking
00:49:47.060 findings from
00:49:49.080 Wall Street,
00:49:49.960 from the
00:49:51.180 stock market,
00:49:52.500 in the
00:49:53.080 immediate
00:49:53.500 aftermath of
00:49:55.180 Donald Trump's
00:49:56.340 attempted
00:49:57.120 assassination.
00:49:58.460 Tell us what
00:49:59.260 you learned and
00:50:00.060 why this is
00:50:00.940 so shocking.
00:50:02.940 Well,
00:50:03.540 Roger,
00:50:03.980 I'm sure you've
00:50:04.680 heard through
00:50:05.300 all the memes,
00:50:06.320 stock crowd,
00:50:07.360 and everything
00:50:07.700 going on on
00:50:08.380 social media,
00:50:09.780 that there's
00:50:10.340 this technique
00:50:12.220 used on Wall
00:50:13.220 Street called
00:50:13.740 short selling,
00:50:15.320 and many people
00:50:16.400 didn't know about
00:50:17.260 it until recently.
00:50:18.520 It's like the
00:50:19.120 best hidden
00:50:19.640 secret,
00:50:20.720 but there's
00:50:21.580 actually a way
00:50:22.320 that you can
00:50:22.900 profit by betting
00:50:24.780 that stocks
00:50:26.000 go down,
00:50:27.500 and many
00:50:28.180 retail investors
00:50:29.080 against this.
00:50:30.200 It's certainly
00:50:30.620 been alleged
00:50:31.300 that it's been
00:50:31.860 used to hurt
00:50:32.800 stocks intentionally
00:50:34.000 and manipulatively.
00:50:36.040 Just short
00:50:36.560 selling happens
00:50:37.220 to be my
00:50:37.860 expertise,
00:50:39.500 and I
00:50:40.760 follow every
00:50:41.740 single metric.
00:50:42.740 I want to
00:50:43.080 thank you for
00:50:43.680 that introduction.
00:50:44.940 It's humbling,
00:50:45.960 but for the
00:50:46.440 last 30 years,
00:50:47.540 I've been
00:50:48.000 following the
00:50:48.680 behavior and
00:50:49.340 patterns and
00:50:49.960 analytics of
00:50:50.720 short sellers,
00:50:52.220 and as I
00:50:53.560 started to
00:50:54.180 look and
00:50:54.780 take my
00:50:55.580 political mind
00:50:56.700 and my
00:50:57.020 timeline,
00:50:58.200 I said,
00:50:58.600 wait a minute,
00:50:59.440 why are people
00:51:00.500 still shorting
00:51:01.560 Trump's stock
00:51:02.440 after the
00:51:04.180 debate?
00:51:05.080 The debate
00:51:05.680 was a no-brainer.
00:51:07.000 No one on
00:51:07.680 earth would
00:51:08.280 bet against
00:51:08.940 Trump's company
00:51:09.880 after what
00:51:10.880 happened in
00:51:11.460 that debate,
00:51:12.520 but I saw
00:51:13.080 this covert
00:51:15.840 systematic
00:51:16.700 effort to
00:51:18.740 accumulate a
00:51:19.720 short position
00:51:20.460 in Donald
00:51:20.900 Trump's stock.
00:51:21.620 I couldn't
00:51:21.980 figure out
00:51:22.500 why.
00:51:22.900 I reported
00:51:23.980 it to
00:51:24.340 some folks
00:51:25.080 independently
00:51:26.540 around the
00:51:28.140 legal team
00:51:29.860 and the
00:51:30.120 public markets
00:51:30.920 for DJT,
00:51:32.260 and this
00:51:32.720 chart you're
00:51:33.340 showing,
00:51:34.360 you see the
00:51:35.480 bottom line
00:51:36.120 there,
00:51:36.560 that's how
00:51:38.060 many people
00:51:38.740 were short
00:51:39.460 for the last
00:51:40.360 40 days in
00:51:41.500 Donald Trump's
00:51:42.260 stock,
00:51:43.040 and then the
00:51:43.560 day after the
00:51:44.460 debate, you see
00:51:45.280 that little red
00:51:46.040 pop up,
00:51:47.000 that's extra,
00:51:47.940 on top,
00:51:48.640 one day after,
00:51:49.800 and then every
00:51:50.760 single day
00:51:51.740 after that,
00:51:52.800 depending on
00:51:53.360 the volume
00:51:53.800 and the
00:51:54.040 market conditions,
00:51:55.340 but there was
00:51:55.840 an increase
00:51:56.620 to that
00:51:57.000 position,
00:51:57.960 and I'm
00:51:58.220 thinking,
00:51:58.900 what wild
00:51:59.540 man is
00:52:00.620 betting that
00:52:01.480 they want a
00:52:01.980 short Trump
00:52:02.660 stock?
00:52:03.180 He's on his
00:52:03.680 way up right
00:52:04.540 now, it
00:52:04.980 can't be.
00:52:06.700 And then I
00:52:07.440 went back,
00:52:08.180 I followed it
00:52:08.900 back, it
00:52:09.380 started the
00:52:09.920 day after the
00:52:10.620 debate, you
00:52:11.620 heard CIA
00:52:12.840 director, or
00:52:13.900 former CIA
00:52:14.640 director Kim
00:52:15.460 Cheadle say
00:52:16.140 the other day
00:52:16.980 that they
00:52:18.220 need about
00:52:18.720 five to
00:52:19.340 seven days,
00:52:20.280 the campaign
00:52:20.840 has to
00:52:21.280 inform the
00:52:22.300 Secret Service
00:52:23.000 like five to
00:52:23.800 seven days
00:52:24.500 before they
00:52:25.600 announce a
00:52:26.460 date.
00:52:28.060 Trump announced
00:52:29.240 this Pennsylvania
00:52:30.300 rally on the
00:52:31.200 third, I went
00:52:32.400 back seven days
00:52:33.940 from that, and
00:52:34.820 sure enough,
00:52:35.880 it's right on
00:52:37.340 the 28th, the
00:52:38.280 day after the
00:52:39.000 debate, so my
00:52:40.700 contention is
00:52:41.580 that there was
00:52:42.200 a systematic
00:52:42.860 single actor or
00:52:44.420 entity that
00:52:46.780 has shorted
00:52:47.720 Trump's stock
00:52:48.700 significantly
00:52:49.600 from the
00:52:52.000 day after the
00:52:52.820 debate until
00:52:54.500 July 12th, and
00:52:56.200 then it just
00:52:57.820 whacks of
00:52:59.220 someone knowing
00:53:00.760 something, because
00:53:02.320 I follow short
00:53:03.360 selling in many
00:53:04.340 stocks every
00:53:05.620 single day for
00:53:06.480 the last 30
00:53:07.200 years, there are
00:53:08.180 no real
00:53:08.920 fundamental reasons
00:53:10.080 to be short to
00:53:11.760 the tune of 10
00:53:12.700 million shares in
00:53:14.380 Donald Trump's
00:53:15.140 stock following
00:53:16.260 that debate.
00:53:17.260 So, Roger, I
00:53:18.200 think someone
00:53:18.820 knew, I can
00:53:21.060 tell you back
00:53:22.420 around the
00:53:23.440 banking crisis, I
00:53:26.060 got called in
00:53:26.880 luckily as a
00:53:27.700 subject matter
00:53:28.380 expert on this
00:53:29.300 stuff, because
00:53:29.880 there were
00:53:30.760 entities that
00:53:32.260 were shorting
00:53:32.920 U.S.
00:53:33.400 financials, banks
00:53:34.400 and financial
00:53:35.020 institutions, and
00:53:37.280 I worked with
00:53:39.140 the Senate
00:53:39.520 Judiciary
00:53:40.100 Committee, Senate
00:53:40.840 Banking
00:53:41.360 Committee, FBI,
00:53:43.340 and as it
00:53:44.360 turned out, some
00:53:46.300 of our worst
00:53:47.060 enemies were
00:53:48.420 using foreign
00:53:50.940 sovereign wealth
00:53:52.040 funds, like
00:53:52.800 countries like
00:53:53.720 Oman and
00:53:54.460 Qatar, to be
00:53:56.040 their beard and
00:53:57.040 go in and
00:53:58.000 short the hell
00:53:58.740 out of our
00:53:59.180 banks.
00:53:59.600 So, I
00:53:59.880 wouldn't be
00:54:00.240 surprised with
00:54:01.500 the word of
00:54:02.060 this Iranian
00:54:02.700 threat, the
00:54:04.040 way I see
00:54:04.940 this systemic
00:54:06.080 position being
00:54:07.100 built over a
00:54:07.960 week and a
00:54:08.380 half leading
00:54:09.040 up to it.
00:54:09.900 I wouldn't
00:54:10.160 be surprised
00:54:10.900 if there is
00:54:11.600 some degree
00:54:12.920 of a state
00:54:14.120 actor in this
00:54:15.060 process.
00:54:16.520 John, is
00:54:17.320 there a way
00:54:18.120 to determine
00:54:19.320 exactly who
00:54:21.100 it is that
00:54:21.700 was shorting
00:54:22.320 the stock?
00:54:24.760 Well, look,
00:54:26.440 FINRA and
00:54:27.120 the SEC have
00:54:28.620 access to that
00:54:29.600 data down to
00:54:30.540 every granular
00:54:32.200 thing there is.
00:54:35.880 The information
00:54:36.780 is available.
00:54:37.480 I've made my
00:54:39.020 information
00:54:39.740 available to
00:54:40.900 folks that I
00:54:41.580 think should
00:54:42.200 know about
00:54:42.880 it, and I
00:54:44.300 certainly think
00:54:45.240 in the see
00:54:46.920 something, say
00:54:47.600 something world,
00:54:49.320 a lot of
00:54:50.460 people were
00:54:50.880 saying something.
00:54:51.680 There's a guy
00:54:52.200 on the roof,
00:54:52.780 there's a guy
00:54:53.180 with a sight,
00:54:53.840 there's a guy
00:54:54.180 with a rifle,
00:54:55.440 but the
00:54:56.280 authorities didn't
00:54:57.040 do anything.
00:54:58.140 I'm saying
00:54:58.700 something.
00:54:59.920 I'm telling
00:55:00.760 you that this
00:55:01.680 is an anomaly,
00:55:03.120 it's an acute
00:55:03.680 anomaly to what
00:55:04.860 I've seen
00:55:05.360 historically.
00:55:06.060 and to
00:55:08.360 me, I
00:55:08.880 think the
00:55:09.240 intelligence
00:55:09.680 committee should
00:55:10.440 be looking
00:55:10.820 at it.
00:55:11.380 I think the
00:55:11.720 oversight
00:55:13.160 committee who's
00:55:14.460 launching an
00:55:14.960 investigation into
00:55:15.900 the Secret
00:55:16.260 Service, we
00:55:17.260 should know
00:55:17.740 when they were
00:55:18.380 informed from
00:55:19.100 Trump that
00:55:20.540 they wanted to
00:55:21.640 have a campaign
00:55:22.160 there, who
00:55:23.640 were the people
00:55:24.540 that went out,
00:55:25.920 who specifically
00:55:26.820 named names,
00:55:28.280 set the interior,
00:55:29.180 set the interior,
00:55:30.720 midterm, and long-range
00:55:32.080 perimeters to that
00:55:33.080 building, and
00:55:34.940 then, you
00:55:35.580 know, potentially
00:55:36.260 someone who
00:55:38.380 could have set
00:55:39.760 the stage and
00:55:41.780 the perimeter
00:55:42.420 could have
00:55:43.720 certainly left
00:55:44.520 an opening.
00:55:45.500 Roger, I
00:55:46.120 tried to get
00:55:46.720 into the
00:55:47.380 Bronx rally,
00:55:49.000 and I tried
00:55:50.260 to garner one
00:55:51.280 extra media pass
00:55:52.560 for a cameraman
00:55:53.340 a couple days
00:55:54.180 before, and I,
00:55:56.280 as a Newsmax
00:55:56.900 reporter and a
00:55:58.060 pretty good New
00:55:58.820 York Street guy,
00:55:59.680 I could work my
00:56:00.320 way into places,
00:56:01.620 could not get
00:56:02.960 in, it was
00:56:03.420 locked down,
00:56:04.560 tighter than
00:56:05.100 the Turtles
00:56:05.620 pecker, as
00:56:06.500 Jackie Gleason
00:56:07.280 said in Smokey
00:56:08.240 and the Bandit,
00:56:09.420 but I don't
00:56:11.760 understand how
00:56:12.540 a young man
00:56:13.120 could be spotted
00:56:13.720 45 minutes
00:56:14.720 before, dressed
00:56:16.760 weird, with
00:56:17.700 garb, with
00:56:18.480 sights, priming
00:56:19.520 on a roof, and
00:56:21.000 it just, in
00:56:23.380 Staten Island
00:56:23.900 speak, I smell
00:56:25.640 a rat on this
00:56:26.360 one from a mile
00:56:27.060 away.
00:56:28.140 Yeah, it
00:56:28.720 really doesn't
00:56:29.580 add up at
00:56:31.060 all, and now
00:56:31.660 you have the
00:56:32.260 FBI director,
00:56:33.320 according to
00:56:33.680 the UK Daily
00:56:34.440 Mail, claiming
00:56:35.140 that he's not
00:56:36.240 really sure
00:56:36.720 Trump got hit
00:56:37.380 by a bullet,
00:56:38.680 and please,
00:56:39.540 this is, he's
00:56:40.640 insulting the
00:56:41.600 American people.
00:56:42.940 All right, I'm
00:56:43.320 afraid we are
00:56:44.100 out of time.
00:56:45.580 John Tobacco,
00:56:46.460 tell folks where
00:56:47.120 they can see
00:56:47.680 your great show.
00:56:49.740 Well, I'll come
00:56:50.160 on every Saturday
00:56:51.040 at 10 o'clock,
00:56:51.920 but every time
00:56:52.400 Trump has a
00:56:53.080 rally, then he
00:56:54.120 goes rambling
00:56:54.860 on and on,
00:56:55.680 and I get
00:56:56.100 preempted, but
00:56:56.960 Saturdays at
00:56:58.280 10, Sundays at
00:56:59.440 11.30, and
00:57:00.520 all across the
00:57:01.360 network weighing
00:57:02.060 in on financial
00:57:03.120 and cryptocurrency
00:57:04.020 stuff, so
00:57:05.080 Roger, thank
00:57:06.220 you.
00:57:06.400 Please get the
00:57:06.900 word out there,
00:57:07.500 I'm telling you,
00:57:08.040 not only did
00:57:08.680 they try to
00:57:09.060 kill him,
00:57:10.340 somehow they
00:57:11.380 tried to profit
00:57:12.220 off it also,
00:57:13.500 which is
00:57:13.920 sickening.
00:57:15.420 All right, we
00:57:16.220 have to leave
00:57:16.640 it there.
00:57:17.060 John Tobacco,
