Transcript

00:00:00.000 The Stone Zone, with legendary Republican strategist and political icon and pundit Roger Stone.
00:00:07.100 Stone has served as a senior campaign aide to three Republican presidents.
00:00:11.120 He is a New York Times bestselling author and a longtime friend and advisor of President Donald Trump.
00:00:16.760 As an outspoken libertarian, Stone has appeared on thousands of broadcasts, spoken at countless venues,
00:00:22.140 and lectured before the prestigious Oxford Political Union and the Cambridge Union Society.
00:00:27.180 Due to his four-plus decades in the political and cultural arena, Stone has become a pop culture icon.
00:00:33.140 And now, here's your host, Roger Stone.
00:00:41.360 Welcome back. I'm Roger Stone, and yes, you are in The Stone Zone.
00:00:46.540 While the incredible display of hypocrisy and the massive lead for a PSYOP that will be, hopefully, in their case, empowered by the fake news media,
00:01:03.780 the Democrat National Convention is a thing to behold.
00:01:08.180 Billionaires and multi-multi-millionaires lecturing us why it's not important to aspire to be wealthy.
00:01:18.480 The whole thing really kind of defies a belief.
00:01:22.800 I'm watching, but it's like a car crash.
00:01:25.300 You'd like to look away, but you can't.
00:01:29.520 We're going to talk about a lot of that in today's show.
00:01:33.060 One thing is very clear to me, and that is, in the end, Pennsylvania is going to be pivotal in this race.
00:01:41.840 That's why, later in the show, we're going to talk to an incredible man, Scott Pressler.
00:01:48.280 I've been in American politics 45 years, but I've never been more impressed with any individual organizer
00:01:55.960 and registrant of voters, a real on-the-ground commando who is doing an incredible job in the Keystone State of closing the gap.
00:02:09.180 He's been active across the country, others like Cliff Maloney, and, of course, the efforts of Charlie Kirk and his entire group of young people.
00:02:22.500 So we are making incredible strides in terms of new registrations to bring new voters to the process.
00:02:29.460 And we're going to be talking to him in just a bit.
00:02:33.040 I'm delighted to see the Republican National Committee ultimately embraced him.
00:02:37.640 I thought it was foolish to have him out there essentially having to raise the money to finance his own expenses,
00:02:44.560 the expenses of those who work with him to save the country.
00:02:47.700 So I'm glad to see that he's been brought in by Lara Trump, an excellent decision and a step in the right direction.
00:02:55.160 Anyway, there's so much to break down today.
00:02:57.720 Let me bring in my co-host, the editor-in-chief over at Slingshot.news, the fastest pen in the East, my good colleague and friend Troy Smith.
00:03:09.660 Roger, it's an honor to be here.
00:03:11.400 I swear I get a new nickname every week and I love it.
00:03:13.760 I'm going to use that somewhere for sure.
00:03:15.560 But as you said, we have a lot going on as far as the DNC.
00:03:20.300 And Roger, you described it perfectly.
00:03:22.040 It's a car crash that we can't look away from.
00:03:24.800 And last night we got to see Tim Walz.
00:03:27.200 And of course he comes out and his hands are everywhere.
00:03:29.780 He's like jumping around.
00:03:31.640 I mean, it's pretty unbelievable.
00:03:32.840 I want to get your thoughts on this speech where he lies about every aspect of Kamala Harris's policy and Donald Trump's policy.
00:03:41.840 He misrepresents Trump and he lies about Kamala Harris's intentions and what the Democrats have done to this country over the last four years.
00:03:50.240 Record inflation.
00:03:51.620 We have people struggling to find work.
00:03:53.180 We have more people that have left the workforce.
00:03:55.640 We are now learning that a million of the jobs that Kamala Harris and Joe Biden claim that they added to this economy during the Biden presidency were revised.
00:04:04.880 They never happened.
00:04:05.600 They were illegitimate numbers, as you pointed out, Roger, time and time again on this show, the numbers were cooked.
00:04:12.080 So as this all hits, you watch this convention and it's as if these people have no idea any of this is happening.
00:04:18.680 They have no idea that things are 25, 30, 40, 50 percent up across the board.
00:04:25.440 You go into a grocery store, things are five times more expensive than they were four years ago.
00:04:29.840 It's like these people have completely dislodged from reality and they are living in a total fantasy world.
00:04:36.940 The worst of them is Tim Waltz.
00:04:38.560 We have a couple of clips of his most egregious lies from his speech last night.
00:04:42.180 I want to get your thoughts on this lunacy, Roger.
00:04:44.100 Roll those clips, please.
00:04:45.580 They'll start jacking up the costs on the middle class.
00:04:48.700 They'll repeal the Affordable Care Act.
00:04:51.260 They'll gut Social Security and Medicare.
00:04:56.700 And they will ban abortion across this country with or without Congress.
00:05:01.480 If you're a middle class family or a family trying to get into the middle class, Kamala Harris is going to cut your taxes.
00:05:08.400 She's taken on the predators and fraudsters.
00:05:11.360 She's taken down the transnational gangs.
00:05:13.980 But I think we owe it to the American people to tell them exactly what she'd do as president.
00:05:19.700 This is almost incredible.
00:05:24.400 The lies here.
00:05:26.060 First of all, Donald Trump has always said throughout the time he's been in American politics that he would never in any way touch Social Security.
00:05:35.720 He's opposed to extending the age before which you can receive your benefits.
00:05:40.820 He's opposed to the IRS and the Social Security looking at your outside income, if you're lucky enough to have one.
00:05:51.500 In other words, what you live on as a senior, in addition to your Social Security payments, it's called means testing.
00:05:58.380 And then, of course, the next move is to cut your benefits.
00:06:02.100 Donald Trump is against that.
00:06:03.560 He's always said that he's against that.
00:06:05.360 He's also opposed to any kind of federal abortion ban.
00:06:09.320 This decision has been correctly turned back to the states, and some states have put some reasonable restrictions on abortion.
00:06:16.780 But abortion in the United States is still essentially quite legal, and Donald Trump has always said, let the states decide.
00:06:23.620 How many lies can this guy jam into one speech and then Kamala and taxes figure out what her Green New Deal would cost, figure out what all of her wacky proposals would cost?
00:06:39.180 She wants to give every person who wants to buy a home, whether they have the means to service a mortgage or not, $25,000 to buy a home.
00:06:52.300 The last time we tried this was under the Democrats.
00:06:56.580 Andrew Cuomo was the secretary of HUD.
00:06:59.920 We gave essentially loans to buy houses to people who could never ultimately service a mortgage.
00:07:09.560 And it brought an entire economic crash, not just to the housing industry, but to the entire economy.
00:07:16.820 And now Kamala Harris wants to try it again.
00:07:19.360 It's beyond belief.
00:07:20.340 Well, and Roger, it's just so – it's such stupidity.
00:07:24.700 You're almost looking at this and saying, you know, what is wrong with Tim Walton?
00:07:28.620 We have a video real quick that this – I thought – you know, I want to get your thoughts on this.
00:07:32.340 This is kind of funny.
00:07:33.540 You and I both have been attacked mercilessly for an interview we did with Caitlin Sinclair by members of the Democrat Party who say that you made some remark.
00:07:43.020 Mark, you quoted a Mel Brooks movie is what you did, and they want to make a big fuss about this.
00:07:47.300 But what you were talking about in the context of that clip is the fact that Tim Walton – I mentioned it earlier.
00:07:52.040 He's throwing his hands around.
00:07:53.020 He's dancing around.
00:07:54.020 We have a clip of Tim Walton side by side with his alter ego, I think.
00:07:58.980 Or maybe the spirit of this individual has possessed Tim Walton since he just died a few weeks ago.
00:08:04.880 Let's roll the clip of Tim Walton kind of freaking out and his side by side.
00:08:08.760 Let's see his twin there.
00:08:10.340 Tim Walton.
00:08:15.400 Point it out. Point it out.
00:08:19.800 Can it be? Can it be?
00:08:22.000 You know, look, the guy has, shall we say, a unique campaign style.
00:08:28.920 He jumps around like he's on some kind of sugar high.
00:08:33.280 I'm really more concerned, however, about his radical progressive record.
00:08:38.520 I mean, this is a guy who, first of all, there's a question of character.
00:08:43.940 I'm sorry, but he lied repeatedly, not just about his service,
00:08:48.200 but, in fact, he bailed out of his unit when he learned that they would be deployed to the Middle East.
00:08:55.880 He claimed to be in Afghanistan.
00:08:59.460 He claimed to be in battle.
00:09:01.060 He said, I use guns in battle.
00:09:04.220 There's multiple absolute documentation of the fact that this guy is guilty of stolen valor.
00:09:11.420 The media tries to pretend that that's not true or that hasn't been proven.
00:09:16.500 It has been completely proven.
00:09:18.200 A number of his people who were in the service with him remember him and what he did quite clearly.
00:09:25.800 He got married and did his honeymoon in China.
00:09:29.060 He's been in China 25 times.
00:09:31.460 He taught at a communist Chinese-funded university.
00:09:36.200 China is our most dangerous adversary.
00:09:39.540 This guy probably has a prized copy of Mao's Little Red Book.
00:09:44.360 Then you have his actions as governor of Minnesota.
00:09:51.360 When a radical group of vandals threatened publicly to tear down the statue of Christopher Columbus that was outside the Capitol,
00:10:03.740 Walsh not only refused to protect the statue, which he could have ordered the state police to do,
00:10:11.620 but he let them desecrate it and destroy it.
00:10:15.460 Then he basically agreed with their reasons, and then he's refused to replace it.
00:10:21.920 That is an attack on Italian-American culture.
00:10:27.440 It's more of this politically correct nonsense.
00:10:30.740 They want to tear down the statues of Abraham Lincoln now, the great emancipator.
00:10:35.240 They just seek to erase all of our history.
00:10:38.340 Tim Walsh was right there with him.
00:10:40.460 I'm sorry, but tampon dispensers in the boys' rooms in the public schools is a ridiculous idea.
00:10:50.180 It's an absurdity.
00:10:52.280 So this guy is just as wacky in the policy area, and all that hand-waving does not make him an effective speaker.
00:11:02.900 Now, you saw him there, of course, on the teleprompter, so he's being fed what to say by Kamala's handlers.
00:11:10.760 Well, and, Roger, that's important to point out, and we had a few more speeches.
00:11:14.520 But before we get to that, there is some breaking news that I was going to bring up at the beginning of the show
00:11:18.160 I just wanted to ask you about real quickly.
00:11:20.320 We played a clip on this show on Tuesday of Nicole Shanahan, RFK Jr.'s running mate,
00:11:26.640 claiming that RFK is considering dropping out of the race, possibly endorsing Trump.
00:11:30.860 And the news broke yesterday that RFK Jr. is reportedly planning on dropping out of the race on Friday
00:11:37.920 and endorsing President Donald Trump after it's kind of become clear that he doesn't really have a path to 270,
00:11:44.960 although I would argue, and I think you would argue as well, that that pathway has kind of been obscured for a long time.
00:11:51.300 So I want to get your thoughts on this.
00:11:52.480 Do you think that that is a possibility, that he's going to endorse Trump?
00:11:55.700 And if so, do you think that RFK Jr. will have a spot if Trump is elected in the next administration?
00:12:03.780 Let me say this.
00:12:04.840 In 1970, there was a heated three-way race for the U.S. Senate in New York.
00:12:09.840 Senator Charles Goodell, who had been appointed to the Senate by Governor Nelson Rockefeller
00:12:15.640 when Robert F. Kennedy, who was the U.S. senator, was tragically shot and killed,
00:12:21.320 was running against Richard Ottinger, a multimillionaire Democrat congressman from outside New York City.
00:12:29.480 And Jim Buckley, the brother of William F. Buckley Jr., was the conservative party candidate.
00:12:35.520 It was a heated, competitive three-way race, but Goodell was running last.
00:12:41.460 Goodell announced, leaked to a number of reporters that he was thinking of dropping out,
00:12:46.700 and then he publicly called a press conference but refused to answer any questions on the record.
00:12:52.360 Then he had his big press conference announcing, no, he was staying in the race,
00:12:56.220 and he got millions of dollars of publicity.
00:12:58.240 In 2002, a billionaire who was self-funding an independent campaign for governor of New York,
00:13:06.240 Tom Golisano, who had passed the Democrats and was running second in the polls,
00:13:13.120 leaked a story that he was considering getting out of the race.
00:13:17.140 His Democrat opponent even called and asked for his endorsement.
00:13:20.760 He scheduled television time in which he announced that he was not getting out of the race,
00:13:25.620 and he was, and he, again, got millions of dollars of free publicity.
00:13:31.380 Could this be that, an attempt to get public attention to say what Robert F. Kennedy wants to say,
00:13:39.060 or does he recognize, as you say, that there is no path forward under which he can become president?
00:13:47.560 Now, I think he is a good man.
00:13:49.200 I think that he's had his own personal trials, as all of us have had,
00:13:55.020 but I do think he's, like his father and his uncle, a patriot.
00:14:00.460 There's a tendency to rewrite history.
00:14:04.160 John F. Kennedy was a great man.
00:14:06.120 He made many great pledges regarding civil rights in the 1960 campaign,
00:14:10.900 but he never actually did anything in the civil rights area.
00:14:14.540 He never passed a Voting Rights Act, an Open Housing Act, any kind of effort towards civil rights.
00:14:23.900 That's because his vice president, Lyndon Johnson, a Southerner, kept saying,
00:14:27.820 the old bulls of the Senate, the old senators who chair the committee will kill your entire budget.
00:14:33.360 So, Jack, you better wait on that N-word stuff, as Lyndon Johnson used to say.
00:14:38.660 And Johnson, of course, was preserving that for himself when he became president,
00:14:43.800 so he could rewrite his record as a hardcore segregationist.
00:14:47.720 In any event, Robert Kennedy has some valiant stands.
00:14:52.240 His critique of the pharmaceutical industry has been devastating.
00:14:57.800 His book I sent on Dr. Fauci, I sent to many, many people.
00:15:02.820 He recognizes that war in Ukraine is folly.
00:15:08.520 He completely understands the deep state.
00:15:11.360 After all, they killed his father and his uncle.
00:15:14.940 What is he going to do?
00:15:16.660 I don't know what he's going to do.
00:15:18.680 He's not the one who said he might be dropping to endorse Trump.
00:15:23.640 That was his running mate.
00:15:24.820 But this could be the former.
00:15:28.460 It could be a brilliant attempt to get free media coverage.
00:15:33.880 He's complained recently about the fact that the mainstream media who covered Ross Perot don't cover him.
00:15:41.840 Or could he be doing the right thing?
00:15:44.280 Now, if he does do the right thing, as I said on Alex Jones yesterday, it would be huge.
00:15:49.800 It would be enormous.
00:15:51.240 Yes, it would consolidate those who understand the dangers of a Kamala Harris presidency, particularly with her nude sidekick, who seems quite excitable to me.
00:16:05.960 Well, and Roger, just one more question on this front.
00:16:09.240 And it's just a broad question about RFK Jr.'s position, you know, and because you've seen so many of these elections, you've seen people go to the White House.
00:16:16.400 Is RFK's position in this election substantial enough that he would garner a guaranteed position in the White House if he does actually endorse Trump?
00:16:29.720 Or is that a decision that you think would be made down the line if it happens at all?
00:16:35.140 Look, it doesn't.
00:16:36.580 First of all, it doesn't work that way.
00:16:38.400 Technically, actually, to promise someone an office in return for dropping out of a federal race, I looked at it at one point or asked a lawyer to research it.
00:16:49.320 I think it might be a crime.
00:16:51.400 In 1968, Nixon thought about announcing his entire cabinet, but the research indicated that it would not be legal to promise someone a job.
00:17:03.260 Now, you can say, I would appoint someone like Tulsi Gabbard, or I would appoint someone like Robert Kennedy.
00:17:10.200 But you would certainly want to see him in a federal position.
00:17:15.980 I mean, he's enlightened.
00:17:18.820 In other words, I think that, and I disagree with him on many things.
00:17:22.700 I disagree with him certainly on abortion.
00:17:25.180 I disagree with him on climate change, which I frankly think is a hoax.
00:17:31.320 I disagree with him on reparations.
00:17:35.240 I probably disagree with him in the end on taxes because a lot of the programs that he proposes would cost a lot of money.
00:17:42.900 On the other hand, I really think he's totally on the money when it comes to the lack of affordable housing in this country, whether it's buying or whether it's renting.
00:17:52.380 It doesn't exist.
00:17:53.560 Affordable housing is a giant crisis, and it's a crisis that I give him huge credit for recognizing and talking about long before others.
00:18:03.040 Well, I agree with you there, Roger.
00:18:04.620 There's a lot of good points, and I think he has proven himself as somebody who understands the bureaucracy, and having somebody like that on your side going forward I think is super important.
00:18:15.280 Roger, there was a speech last night that was delivered at the DNC that I want to get your thoughts on particularly, and this is because you wrote one of the great books on the Clintons, and that is the Clinton War on Women that exposed Bill Clinton for his past rapes and Hillary Clinton for attacking the women, the victims of Bill Clinton's horrid, horrid sexual acts.
00:18:39.380 So I want to play this clip of Bill Clinton's speech last night at the DNC.
00:18:43.560 They actually rolled him out there.
00:18:44.880 He took a break from whatever he does on a daily basis, and we want to roll these clips and get Roger's thoughts on Bill Clinton being rolled out there endorsing Kamala Harris.
00:18:55.280 It's kind of an odd thing, and for Kamala Harris, the one that's going to be the first woman president, how does she feel to have a rapist on stage endorsing her?
00:19:03.100 Let's roll that.
00:19:04.120 Now let's cut to this chase.
00:19:06.320 I am too old to gill the lily.
00:19:09.380 Two days ago, I turned 78, the oldest man in my family of four generations.
00:19:20.660 And the only personal vanity I want to assert is I'm still younger than Donald Trump.
00:19:32.100 But so help me, I triple-checked it.
00:19:35.380 Since the end of the Cold War in 1989, America has created about 51 million new jobs.
00:19:47.140 I swear I checked this three times.
00:19:54.780 Even I couldn't believe it.
00:19:57.020 What's the score?
00:19:58.860 Democrats 50, Republicans 1.
00:20:01.160 Completely false.
00:20:11.520 First of all, since he's younger than Trump, why does Donald Trump look so much better than he does, so much healthier?
00:20:19.440 Trump actually is clearly losing weight and getting into fighting trim for the 75 days ahead.
00:20:27.000 And then secondarily, Ronald Reagan's presidency over eight years created almost 11 million new jobs.
00:20:34.980 So they understand that they just pump this stuff out.
00:20:39.520 It's like the claim that cutting taxes is what caused our massive deficits under Reagan and under Trump.
00:20:48.480 No.
00:20:49.840 And every year after Reagan cut taxes, there's actually a substantial increase in federal revenues because more federal, more economic activity brings in more tax revenue.
00:21:02.340 It's the whole point of supply-side growth economics.
00:21:07.000 It works.
00:21:07.780 Worked for Jack Kennedy.
00:21:09.320 Worked for Ronald Reagan.
00:21:11.300 Worked for Donald Trump.
00:21:12.660 Gave us about the most robust economy in our history.
00:21:17.800 Bill Clinton is a charming rogue.
00:21:22.280 But I've only met him once, and that was at Richard Nixon's funeral.
00:21:27.440 You can read about it online.
00:21:29.520 He's the last guy that understood that they needed moderates in their party.
00:21:35.040 He reached out to moderates to win his presidency.
00:21:39.720 This party is not interested in moderates.
00:21:42.580 They put forward the most radical leftist agenda in American history.
00:21:48.700 But more importantly, they want to erase the most recent past.
00:21:52.980 Like Joe Biden was never president.
00:21:55.520 Kamala was never his vice president in charge of our border.
00:22:02.460 It really boggles the mind.
00:22:05.280 They're now upset that prices are so high.
00:22:08.120 Prices are high not because food companies are gouging people.
00:22:12.640 Prices are high because the inflation rate is ridiculous.
00:22:17.780 Because your spending has lessened the buying power of the dollar.
00:22:23.880 That's why prices are up.
00:22:26.460 It costs more money.
00:22:28.340 So, I mean, they just want to completely rewrite history.
00:22:31.680 It's an absurdity.
00:22:33.100 For those of you who are interested, since Bill and Hillary have both popped up, if you're
00:22:38.540 really interested in the single best chronicle of all their crimes, I would recommend to you
00:22:45.520 the Clinton's War on Women.
00:22:48.700 We will show you where you can buy that.
00:22:52.060 It is, it is, or you can go, there it is right there.
00:22:55.380 And you can go to the Stone Zone store, of course, and find it there at StoneZone.com.
00:23:00.900 Just go to the shop.
00:23:03.800 You know, Troy, it wasn't until the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee that I finally
00:23:08.780 had a chance to meet Scott Pressler.
00:23:11.380 Scott Pressler is one of the most impressive young men I have ever met in my life.
00:23:16.980 He first came to national prominence when he organized a Baltimore cleanup during which
00:23:23.340 200 volunteers moved 12 tons of trash out of the city.
00:23:28.780 A completely selfless act.
00:23:31.300 But now he's spent the last decade traveling the country, registering thousands of conservative
00:23:36.820 and pro-Trump voters and training others in how to do it themselves.
00:23:43.220 He has been instrumental in the 2022 election, helping us flip races in Florida and New York,
00:23:50.080 where he concentrated his activities.
00:23:53.520 He launched an organization, Early Vote Action.
00:23:58.400 The simple mission is really quite basic.
00:24:01.020 This is kind of Abraham Lincoln's old formula.
00:24:04.860 It is register conservatives to vote and encourage them to vote on Election Day or early absentee
00:24:11.900 or mail-in voting or all of the above.
00:24:15.220 He's a man who leaves nothing to chance.
00:24:17.220 To win back our country in November, Scott has shifted his focus, particularly to Pennsylvania.
00:24:25.560 That's one of the things I want to talk to him about.
00:24:27.960 But also, he and his associates, patriots all, are hard at work in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada,
00:24:36.760 North Carolina, and Wisconsin.
00:24:39.280 It is a great privilege to have you on the show.
00:24:42.640 Scott Pressler, welcome to the Stone Zone.
00:24:44.900 Hey, thanks, Roger, for having me back.
00:24:49.500 You are amazing.
00:24:51.360 You know, a lot has changed since we had you on last time.
00:24:54.440 I argued in that show that the Republican National Committee needed to embrace your activities
00:25:00.000 and give you the support they needed.
00:25:02.780 I even said that, well, maybe Scott Pressler should be Republican National Chairman,
00:25:07.580 an idea which online, by the way, many, many, many people like.
00:25:13.300 Now, I'm happy with our current leadership.
00:25:16.240 I think Chairman Whatley and Laura Trump are doing an amazing job of getting ready for this election,
00:25:23.260 but I'm glad to see that they have embraced you and embraced your activities,
00:25:28.480 because only by all working together can we hope to win.
00:25:32.160 And there is no army of dedicated people out registering votes for Kamala Harris.
00:25:39.960 There's no popular support for her in the country.
00:25:43.000 They still have to play games with her public appearances to make their crowds bigger than
00:25:47.940 they look, although that is certainly not the most important thing.
00:25:51.540 But it's part of the PSYOP they're running.
00:25:54.280 First, you oversample Democrats in the polls to show that she's surging.
00:25:59.320 Then you have her take a couple of Donald Trump's positions, like ending the tax on tips as if it's hers.
00:26:07.460 And you inflate a candidacy which has no legs at the end of the day,
00:26:12.840 because their candidate can't answer questions.
00:26:15.440 Anyway, before we go there, you have really honed in on Pennsylvania.
00:26:22.080 And I think this is exactly right.
00:26:24.000 As I study all the polling, as I speak to those in politics, in the party and some in the campaign,
00:26:30.500 Pennsylvania is going to be the key to this election.
00:26:33.460 So, Scott, tell us about what you've achieved so far in Pennsylvania.
00:26:39.260 Thank you.
00:26:40.100 Well, again, my organization is EarlyVoteAction.com.
00:26:44.540 And while we have focused on all of the swing states, Pennsylvania wins the White House.
00:26:49.980 So, literally, other than one trip to Minnesota, I will not be leaving the Commonwealth.
00:26:55.260 I'm going on a 67-county tour to crisscross the entire state, making sure that we're registering voters.
00:27:03.240 And, Roger, since you and I last spoke, I have hired a state director for Pennsylvania.
00:27:10.460 We have 14 field staff on the ground.
00:27:15.300 These are doing face-to-face, boots on the ground, direct voter contact from now until November.
00:27:21.020 Now, when you were talking about the phony momentum that Kamala has, and, you know, I see that people have been a little scared from seeing that on social media, that Kamala might have this bump of enthusiasm.
00:27:37.300 But I'm a data guy, and I'm a numbers guy.
00:27:39.680 And I can tell you that since the Democrats undemocratically pushed Joe Biden out of the way and stalled Kamala, put up the most far-left, extreme vice presidential candidate, stolen valor, Tim Walz, that in all four of these last weeks, Roger, Republicans have continued to maintain a net gain of registered Republicans across these 67 counties in Pennsylvania.
00:28:08.320 So even when people said that momentum is there, it is not reflective in the voter registration data that we're seeing in Pennsylvania.
00:28:17.940 For example, in the last seven days, we had 5,000 voters statewide added, while the Democrats had 3,000.
00:28:26.600 So we had a net gain of 2,000 in the last seven days alone in Pennsylvania.
00:28:32.100 That is really extraordinary.
00:28:34.040 The key counties, people don't really understand how Pennsylvania works, but there's a great rivalry between Western and Eastern Pennsylvania.
00:28:44.520 Eastern Pennsylvania anchored by Philadelphia, Western Pennsylvania anchored by Pittsburgh.
00:28:49.880 Pittsburgh and Philadelphia are quite different as cities.
00:28:54.620 The people in the East are ambivalent about the people in the West, and the people in the West despise the elitist liberals in the East.
00:29:02.880 So there's always been greater intensity there.
00:29:06.060 The Western part of the state always turns out at a higher rate than the Eastern part of the state.
00:29:13.020 The central part of the state, it is often said, is more like Alabama than it is Pennsylvania.
00:29:19.100 There are a lot of gun owners.
00:29:20.340 There are a lot of hunters.
00:29:21.180 There are a lot of fishermen.
00:29:22.440 It's a very, very rural, a lot of evangelical Christians.
00:29:26.560 It's a very rural area.
00:29:28.580 The collar counties around Philadelphia, Buck, Bucks, Montgomery, and so on, used to be the Republican suburbs, and Philadelphia, of course, most solidly Democrat.
00:29:44.400 Over time, the outlying counties, such as Bucks and Montgomery, there's a third one, have become more Democrat.
00:29:56.800 But at the same time, among working class Catholics in the West, through the hard work of Scott Pressler, we are registering people in the West who can outweigh those votes.
00:30:07.040 So I think you'll have greater activity in the West.
00:30:10.080 I think it's going to be very close.
00:30:11.380 It's got to be honest with you, I think your efforts, your efforts and those of Cliff Maloney and those of Charlie Kirk and many, many others, there are some unsung heroes who are following your example.
00:30:25.420 I think that's going to make the difference.
00:30:28.360 Yes, thank you.
00:30:29.780 Well, you have this definite wah-wah versus sheets divide in the state.
00:30:34.560 And while I agree with you that the West, even in Allegheny County and every single county surrounding Pittsburgh, the West is trending to the right, but here's something that people I don't understand the significance of, Roger.
00:30:50.980 We just flipped Bucks County to a plurality of registered Republican voters.
00:30:57.100 Now, let me provide some context for that for a second.
00:31:00.260 Four years ago, there were 15,000 more registered Democrats than Republicans.
00:31:08.320 And as of Monday of this week, there are over 700 more registered Republicans in Bucks County.
00:31:15.180 Now, somebody might go, Scott, 700, that's not a lot of people.
00:31:18.560 But really, that's a shift of 15,700 to the right in just four years' time in a state, Roger, that was decided by 80,000 votes.
00:31:32.040 So more than one-eighth of what we need to win the election in just one of those 67 counties, Bucks County is going to be decisive in this election.
00:31:42.500 And furthermore, you touched on it for a second, yes, our hunters are going to be a huge part of the equation, knowing that 30% of them are not registered to vote.
00:31:52.320 That's 300,000 people.
00:31:54.480 And furthermore, we are making a concerted effort, especially in that Alabama region of Pennsylvania, focusing on the Amish.
00:32:04.280 Governor Josh Shapiro is waging a war on religious freedom, on school choice, on the right not to be coerced in the vaccinations, and on dairy and raw milk.
00:32:15.700 And if we were smart as a party, we would really push as much legislation as we can, supporting our farmers, our dairy and raw milk, because we are seeing the Amish register in numbers that they haven't before.
00:32:29.320 This is extraordinary.
00:32:32.700 We're going to take a look on, and that sounds like it could be a slingshot.news piece to me.
00:32:38.660 Gentlemen, we're going to take a quick commercial break, and then we're going to be right back with Scott Pressler.
00:32:44.180 You know, my wife and I owe a very large amount of money to the IRS.
00:32:49.400 We recently agreed to a tax settlement.
00:32:53.540 Yes, we reported every single penny of our income accurately.
00:32:56.960 Yes, we reported our meager assets.
00:33:01.180 Our simple problem was the inability to pay after I was essentially bankrupted by the Mueller investigation.
00:33:10.660 It's a scary situation.
00:33:13.520 But your tax problems have to be addressed.
00:33:16.580 And three-quarters of what I owe them is interest in penalties, in which they will not negotiate.
00:33:21.520 I'll be paying the IRS for the rest of my life, but at least it is settled in my mind, and I will meet my obligations.
00:33:29.920 If you have a huge tax debt, however, let me urge you not to try to deal with the IRS yourself, but to go to tax professionals, people who can represent you, who can negotiate on your behalf.
00:33:44.500 Whether you owe $10,000 or a million dollars, they can help you, whether it is a business or personal, whether you have the ability to pay everything now or you have to pay over time.
00:33:58.680 You need to work with the people who are our best at this.
00:34:04.640 They are, of course, my friends at the Tax Network USA.
00:34:09.800 Now, Tax Network USA, you can reach them two different ways.
00:34:14.500 One, by calling 1-800-985-1000, that will give you a private, free consultation about your tax situation.
00:34:24.800 Or you can go to their website, which is tnusa.com slash stone.
00:34:32.420 But don't try to deal with the IRS yourself.
00:34:36.000 Get the professional help you need.
00:34:38.040 They have helped others save millions and millions in taxes and solve their tax issues.
00:34:43.660 I urge you to call them today.
00:34:46.060 All right, let's return to politics.
00:34:49.140 Scott Pressler is our guest.
00:34:51.720 Scott, you put up something about Florida that really concerned me.
00:34:57.540 Let's put up that posting.
00:34:59.460 This is really, really concerning to me for several reasons.
00:35:03.620 The reforms that were passed by the Republicans in the state legislature and signed by Governor Ron DeSantis
00:35:10.720 make our election system not more transparent but more opaque.
00:35:15.140 So now, under the law, voters are entitled to less information.
00:35:21.900 And only an election board member may challenge the legality or legitimacy of an election.
00:35:28.280 A private citizen can no longer do so.
00:35:31.880 The voting lists here are not clean.
00:35:34.380 The idea that Florida is the gold standard of elections is simply not true.
00:35:40.620 Now, some counties are much better than others.
00:35:43.160 But the California Republican Assembly, a volunteer group that I strongly support,
00:35:49.520 developed a program with Chris Jersky to find bad addresses on the voter file.
00:35:55.400 And when they went through all 15 million files, they found one million post office certified undeliverable addresses.
00:36:05.700 Now, you go to the individual boards of elections.
00:36:08.340 You look up those election records.
00:36:10.200 In some cases, 61 counties have agreed legally to remove those voters who cannot be found,
00:36:16.960 who may never have existed or may have moved out of state.
00:36:20.460 Some of whom are registered to commercial or non-residential buildings.
00:36:26.920 Others registered to empty lots from the rolls.
00:36:30.740 So the rolls can be legally cleaned.
00:36:33.360 But that is a huge concern of mine.
00:36:36.460 So Florida has a private association of supervisors of elections.
00:36:43.080 They try to make it sound like it's quasi-official, like a state board.
00:36:48.300 And they do not want anybody looking at the mechanics of their elections.
00:36:53.400 So it will be an issue.
00:36:55.300 Anybody who thinks Florida is in the bag is making a huge mistake.
00:36:59.640 The kind of mistakes that Scott just pointed out,
00:37:02.780 where people who believe they're registered Republicans,
00:37:05.140 go to the list and find that they are not,
00:37:09.260 is just a one tiny example of our problem here in Florida.
00:37:13.900 No, it is not every county.
00:37:15.460 But Florida is going to be close.
00:37:17.320 Every Trump vote is going to count.
00:37:19.760 If you know people who aren't registered in Florida,
00:37:22.360 urge them to get registered.
00:37:24.760 If you think you're a Republican, go on the state website and check that.
00:37:29.560 All right, Scott, back to you.
00:37:30.720 Well, there's a lot to unpack there.
00:37:35.040 But after the Florida primary on the 20th,
00:37:37.400 you know, I read all of my direct messages, all of my comments.
00:37:40.780 And it was a theme I was seeing from many people.
00:37:44.220 It wasn't just one here or there.
00:37:46.680 They want to vote.
00:37:48.040 And Florida is a closed primary state,
00:37:51.180 just like Pennsylvania, Arizona, Nevada.
00:37:54.440 And if you're not registered with a party,
00:37:56.280 you are unable to participate in our primaries
00:37:59.460 in order to choose the most conservative candidate.
00:38:02.520 And so right here on the Stone Zone,
00:38:04.540 I'm asking every viewer,
00:38:06.420 please, today, after you're done watching Roger,
00:38:09.640 I want you to check your voter registration status.
00:38:12.600 It's as easy as typing into the internet,
00:38:15.520 Pennsylvania, check voter status.
00:38:18.560 Arizona, check voter status.
00:38:21.120 And you can usually do this with your driver's license,
00:38:23.480 or you can do it by searching your name, date of birth, zip code.
00:38:27.620 And you want to look for three major components
00:38:30.780 when checking your status.
00:38:32.580 A, that you're an active voter.
00:38:35.860 Why is that important?
00:38:37.260 Because in Arizona, people were actually changed to an active,
00:38:41.340 and that led to delays.
00:38:43.380 And people don't have a lot of time to stand spending in line
00:38:46.440 when they're working moms and dads and jobs and business owners.
00:38:50.080 So make sure that you're an active voter.
00:38:53.340 If you're not active,
00:38:54.360 I want you to re-register to vote at your current address.
00:38:57.820 Then, number two,
00:38:59.340 I want you to make sure that you're registered to vote
00:39:01.320 at your current address.
00:39:03.640 If you move from Philly to Pittsburgh,
00:39:06.180 and you don't register to vote at your current address,
00:39:08.800 you're going to have to drive your behind
00:39:10.620 all the way from Pittsburgh back to Philadelphia
00:39:13.060 five hours just to vote in the election,
00:39:15.700 which could prevent you from voting.
00:39:18.240 And third, I want you to make sure that you're registered to vote
00:39:21.820 with your preferred political party.
00:39:24.640 Now, some of you might say,
00:39:25.800 Scott, you know,
00:39:26.360 there's no point in registering as a Republican right now.
00:39:29.200 I argue the opposite.
00:39:31.160 When people see that our deficit of the Democrats
00:39:35.940 over Republicans in Pennsylvania continues to decline,
00:39:39.280 that provides hope for other people.
00:39:42.300 That is going to result in dollars and donors
00:39:45.260 flowing into Pennsylvania to help us win the Commonwealth.
00:39:48.860 So please check your voter registration status today.
00:39:51.580 Last thing, Roger, I know I'm talking a lot,
00:39:53.640 but I want to say God bless Attorney General Ken Paxton
00:39:58.040 and the great state of Texas,
00:39:59.920 because he has launched an investigation
00:40:01.620 to make sure that any illegal aliens,
00:40:04.800 that we're going to make sure that they are not registering
00:40:06.700 to vote in the great state of Texas.
00:40:08.160 And I have been contacting BOE's boards of election
00:40:11.760 across the entire state
00:40:13.480 because the Pennsylvania Department of State
00:40:15.240 will not respond back to me.
00:40:17.560 And we need to provide for four things.
00:40:19.240 And I'll be brief.
00:40:20.240 A, we need to make sure no illegal aliens
00:40:22.340 are on the voter rolls.
00:40:23.640 B, we need to make sure that no county
00:40:25.660 runs out of paper ballots on Election Day.
00:40:28.960 Three, we need to make sure that if there's a power outage,
00:40:31.680 that there are backup generators.
00:40:33.460 And D, to make sure that no machines
00:40:37.460 are connected to the internet.
00:40:39.500 We have to be proactive going into November
00:40:41.980 to make sure that no shenanigans are going to prevent us
00:40:45.100 from electing Donald J. Trump this November.
00:40:48.520 No, you make an excellent point there.
00:40:52.600 Troy, you have two minutes.
00:40:55.780 Well, absolutely, Scott.
00:40:56.840 I wanted to ask you real quickly
00:40:57.960 just about what's going on here,
00:40:59.400 because I read just before this interview
00:41:01.960 that Josh Shapiro, the governor there,
00:41:04.180 a Democrat who was actually, you know,
00:41:05.540 they were looking at him for VP for Kamala Harris.
00:41:08.240 He has implemented, as of 2023, a motor voter system,
00:41:11.820 which the Democrats use across the country
00:41:13.560 to kind of boost Democrat registrations.
00:41:15.720 Can you talk about the effect that that's had
00:41:17.520 on your fight there in Pennsylvania?
00:41:19.520 And if it's possible to stop that at the source?
00:41:22.460 I mean, it seems to be very dangerous.
00:41:24.680 Thank you.
00:41:25.580 Well, it's good and bad.
00:41:27.820 I'll tell you, Troy, that actually,
00:41:30.680 thank you, Democrat Governor Shapiro,
00:41:33.680 because of automatic voter registration,
00:41:37.080 we're seeing a lot of working class white Republicans,
00:41:41.500 especially out in Western Pennsylvania,
00:41:43.380 that maybe they weren't going to register to vote.
00:41:46.680 Maybe a lot of those hunters, fishermen, dairy farmers,
00:41:50.220 the automatic voter registration
00:41:52.440 has actually instituted more registered Republicans
00:41:57.280 than Democrats across the Commonwealth.
00:41:59.960 So where Josh Shapiro probably thought
00:42:01.440 this was going to boost the Democrat turnout,
00:42:04.680 it's actually helping low propensity,
00:42:07.280 working class Republicans come back into the fold.
00:42:10.440 Just, here's a quick read
00:42:16.580 from today's Tallahassee Democrat.
00:42:19.120 Vendor issue.
00:42:20.220 Florida election results websites
00:42:22.060 face technical difficulties all across the state.
00:42:26.880 Multiple county election websites
00:42:29.140 across the state of Florida
00:42:30.420 were having trouble publishing results
00:42:32.600 shortly after polls closed at 7 p.m. Eastern.
00:42:36.300 Leon, Palm Beach, Manatee, Sarasota, Broward,
00:42:40.040 and other counties' websites
00:42:41.620 were experiencing technical issues
00:42:43.900 which could not be accessed and were timing out.
00:42:47.740 The outage and initially affected
00:42:50.380 other Florida election systems using VR systems,
00:42:55.240 said the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections,
00:42:57.920 Wendy Sartori-Link.
00:43:00.080 Secretary of State Byrd said
00:43:02.040 that the state was aware of the website's technical problems
00:43:06.020 and called it a vending issue.
00:43:08.380 This does not augur well.
00:43:10.840 I read it only to support
00:43:12.540 my earlier concerns about Florida.
00:43:16.120 But you're absolutely right about
00:43:18.660 the need to register some of those rural voters.
00:43:23.120 There's a lot of unregistered conservatives.
00:43:26.420 It's amazing as I go out and around
00:43:29.820 and people recognize me,
00:43:32.140 I guess because CNN may be recognizable,
00:43:34.760 and they tell me they're for Trump.
00:43:36.040 I said, well, you know, you're registered, aren't you?
00:43:39.520 And they said, no, I just, I mean to do it.
00:43:41.720 I just can't get, I haven't gotten around to it.
00:43:43.880 There are deadlines here.
00:43:45.180 So I honestly believe that if every Trump supporter
00:43:49.200 went out and found 10 unregistered people
00:43:51.900 who thought like they did,
00:43:53.260 friends, colleagues, family, cousins, uncles,
00:43:56.120 it would make an enormous, enormous difference.
00:43:59.260 Yes, and briefly, if I may,
00:44:02.880 here are the target groups that we're focusing on Roger
00:44:05.720 and why it's so important they get registered
00:44:07.880 and they have a plan to vote
00:44:09.340 if they can't vote on election day.
00:44:11.380 Remember that number about 80,000
00:44:14.640 that I said Joe Biden won by in 2020,
00:44:17.140 and I use that very loosely, won?
00:44:19.280 There are 80,000 truckers in Pennsylvania.
00:44:22.080 Those are working class people
00:44:23.660 that they might be driving a rig in California.
00:44:26.460 How are they going to vote on election day
00:44:28.420 if they're serving us, the American people?
00:44:30.620 So we need to get truckers a mail-in ballot
00:44:32.580 or to have them vote early in person.
00:44:34.680 We have 90,000 Amish in Pennsylvania.
00:44:36.740 That's the election.
00:44:37.960 This group of people,
00:44:39.260 there's a stigma that they shouldn't be voting.
00:44:41.480 The Amish like mail-in voting
00:44:43.220 because it is a secret and private ballot
00:44:45.660 that is delivered to their home
00:44:47.220 and the rest of their community
00:44:48.660 doesn't have to see their buggy
00:44:49.900 going to the polling location
00:44:51.340 and their Amish community.
00:44:53.240 Then we have 800,000 members
00:44:55.160 of the veteran community.
00:44:56.460 And this is, we'll say,
00:44:57.380 a more mature community
00:44:58.880 that perhaps, you know,
00:45:01.040 weather or for other reasons
00:45:03.060 might make it harder for them
00:45:04.260 to vote on election day,
00:45:05.600 especially with stolen valor Tim Walls.
00:45:07.860 Let's make sure those 800,000 veterans
00:45:10.020 in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
00:45:11.240 are ready to vote.
00:45:12.640 And last, again, 930,000 hunters,
00:45:16.660 30% of them are not registered to vote.
00:45:19.360 When does hunting season start?
00:45:21.800 In early November.
00:45:23.520 When the hunters are going to be out
00:45:25.480 going to hunt deer and turkey
00:45:28.680 and everything else
00:45:29.620 and they're going to be in their blinds,
00:45:31.320 let's make sure they either get a mail-in ballot
00:45:33.600 or they vote early in person.
00:45:35.400 And last, this is very critical.
00:45:37.640 Nobody is talking about, Roger,
00:45:39.380 the fact that Pennsylvania
00:45:40.600 does have early in-person voting.
00:45:43.520 If you're watching this right now,
00:45:45.200 in most counties across the Commonwealth,
00:45:47.380 starting on October 15th,
00:45:49.000 you will be able to vote at your Bureau of Elections
00:45:52.400 or your county courthouse in person
00:45:55.800 and vote a mail-in ballot in person
00:45:58.580 as opposed to putting it into a Dropbox
00:46:00.500 or putting it with the United States Postal Service.
00:46:03.160 My organization, again, is Early Vote Action.
00:46:05.380 You can support my organization financially
00:46:08.020 so I can continue to hire people.
00:46:10.300 That's earlyvoteaction.com
00:46:11.840 and I greatly would appreciate your financial support.
00:46:14.380 Folks, you see it right there
00:46:16.620 at the bottom of the screen, earlyvoteaction.com.
00:46:20.260 We're going to show it again before the end of the show.
00:46:23.240 Scott needs your help.
00:46:25.380 If everybody helps, this vital work can continue,
00:46:29.540 but it's expensive.
00:46:30.980 The more you give, the more people he can employ.
00:46:34.400 He's a technician.
00:46:35.560 He studies the data.
00:46:37.000 He makes the very best of it
00:46:38.480 and he's making a difference as an individual.
00:46:41.800 Scott, I want to salute you
00:46:43.040 for your amazing work.
00:46:45.060 It is very tough.
00:46:46.560 You put in long hours, awful and thankless.
00:46:49.600 I'm glad that the party finally recognizes
00:46:51.680 the great value of the work
00:46:53.600 that you and your colleagues are doing.
00:46:55.960 So God bless you
00:46:57.020 and thank you for joining us today, my friend.
00:47:00.240 Hey, thank you, Roger.
00:47:01.480 Thank you, Troy, for having me.
00:47:04.620 Okay.
00:47:05.460 Thank you very much again, Scott Pressler.
00:47:08.220 Send him the support he needs.
00:47:10.820 He's an amazing, amazing man.
00:47:13.780 This is, of course, the 14th presidential race
00:47:18.540 that I have had some connection to.
00:47:22.340 I am very interested in watching this Democrat convention unfold.
00:47:29.100 The extraordinary lengths that they go to
00:47:35.280 to distance themselves from their own record
00:47:38.400 is quite amazing.
00:47:41.620 Troy, we have about, I don't know, nine minutes, eight minutes.
00:47:46.260 Where do you think we should go?
00:47:48.780 What do you want to talk about?
00:47:50.320 Well, Roger, we have one thing I want to play
00:47:52.360 because we've talked about this before
00:47:53.940 and Media Matters picked it up
00:47:55.560 and they made a big stink about it.
00:47:57.420 And that is why the Democrats are so eager.
00:48:00.800 You know, we watched the clips.
00:48:01.960 We saw them lying through their teeth about everything,
00:48:05.280 lying about Kamala Harris's policies,
00:48:07.000 lying about Donald Trump's policies.
00:48:08.900 And I think people at home need to understand
00:48:10.620 these people are not just lying to lie.
00:48:13.560 They are lying because they were implicated
00:48:15.740 in possibly the biggest political scandal
00:48:18.140 in the history of not only this country,
00:48:20.200 but of the entire world.
00:48:21.940 We have a clip that kind of shows
00:48:23.520 what Barack Obama, what Hillary Clinton,
00:48:26.380 what these people did
00:48:27.360 when they surveilled Donald Trump's campaign,
00:48:29.720 when they committed possibly the biggest abuse
00:48:32.120 of political power in the history of the world.
00:48:34.560 Let's roll that clip and get Roger's thoughts.
00:48:36.640 This is what they're really scared about.
00:48:39.040 They're really scared about being held accountable
00:48:41.240 for their own actions, their lawless actions.
00:48:44.040 Let's roll that clip and get Roger's thoughts.
00:48:46.540 Trump will not be president.
00:48:47.600 Highly critical, biased text messages
00:48:49.920 between senior FBI officials
00:48:51.820 Peter Strzok and Lisa Page.
00:48:53.260 There will be no question
00:48:54.620 about the outcome of this election.
00:48:59.020 And she got ahead of herself.
00:49:00.620 This utterly stunned this campaign.
00:49:03.020 Head home.
00:49:04.460 You should get some sleep.
00:49:06.300 We'll have more to say tomorrow.
00:49:08.960 Our constitutional democracy enshrines
00:49:12.420 the peaceful transfer of power.
00:49:15.240 The peaceful transition of power.
00:49:17.600 Is one of the hallmarks of our democracy.
00:49:20.660 We want to do everything we can to help you succeed
00:49:22.860 because if you succeed, then the country succeeds.
00:49:25.520 These declassified documents that were just released.
00:49:28.800 Officials in the Obama administration
00:49:30.360 were asking for the identities
00:49:32.460 to be unmasked of Americans.
00:49:34.480 Unmasking of aides and staffers
00:49:36.360 of the incoming president.
00:49:38.260 The basic charge, political spying.
00:49:40.680 To disrupt the peaceful transfer of power.
00:49:42.900 Unmasking of American citizens could be a real problem.
00:49:48.000 Why is it that the unmasking of Flynn
00:49:50.160 somehow ended up in the pages of the Washington Post?
00:49:53.160 I know nothing about those moves
00:49:54.840 to investigate Michael Flynn.
00:49:56.100 The vice president said that yesterday.
00:49:57.860 And then the last name on this list is Joe Biden.
00:50:01.300 The Obama administration was bitter.
00:50:03.940 They wanted to do everything they could
00:50:05.580 to undermine the incoming Trump administration.
00:50:08.640 Really designed to sabotage
00:50:10.220 and really upend the new administration.
00:50:12.980 An outgoing president and a vice president
00:50:15.200 and a Washington Post columnist
00:50:17.040 and the FBI setting up an incoming administration.
00:50:19.680 Wow.
00:50:19.800 That's a real conspiracy.
00:50:21.320 And nobody wants to talk about it.
00:50:22.720 It is, of course, entirely true.
00:50:31.540 This is the greatest single dirty trick
00:50:33.400 in American history.
00:50:34.920 It is nothing less than the use of the full authority
00:50:37.960 of the United States government
00:50:39.460 and the extraordinary capability
00:50:41.680 of the intelligence agencies
00:50:43.200 to utilize what they knew
00:50:44.960 was completely fabricated evidence,
00:50:47.920 both the Steele dossier
00:50:49.220 and the canard that the Russians had hacked the DNC,
00:50:54.720 for which they still to this day have no proof,
00:50:57.880 to justify an illegal, unconstitutional attempt
00:51:02.400 to undo an American election
00:51:05.580 and depose a duly elected president.
00:51:10.720 And they keep saying,
00:51:11.900 oh, this is about revenge.
00:51:13.420 It has nothing to do with revenge.
00:51:15.600 But my wife and I and our family
00:51:18.200 were virtually destroyed.
00:51:19.220 General Flynn's and his wife
00:51:22.500 and great family were greatly harmed.
00:51:25.660 These people destroyed,
00:51:27.860 tried to destroy the life of my friend George Papadopoulos,
00:51:30.740 who's going to join us right here
00:51:32.040 on the Stone Zone tomorrow.
00:51:34.100 So, yes, I think that some of them fear justice.
00:51:37.400 They try to keep saying,
00:51:38.440 oh, this is a revenge.
00:51:39.760 You're being mean to us.
00:51:40.720 No, you try to destroy our lives.
00:51:42.920 You should be held to the same standards
00:51:44.520 you tried to hold us to.
00:51:45.880 In my case, the crimes against me were fabricated.
00:51:48.300 Mueller admits this in his final unredacted report,
00:51:52.900 which interestingly only becomes public
00:51:55.560 because BuzzFeed had to sue the Justice Department
00:51:59.620 in order to get Mueller's final report completely unredacted.
00:52:04.640 The Justice Department was refusing to give it to anyone.
00:52:07.120 And when they won that suit, BuzzFeed thought it would be embarrassing to me.
00:52:11.220 It essentially says in black and white
00:52:13.280 that they could find no evidence of Russian collusion,
00:52:16.980 that they had no proof that I had trafficked in documents
00:52:20.620 or anything else with WikiLeaks.
00:52:22.780 And they conceded, even if they had found such proof
00:52:25.960 that I knew about or about the hack after the fact,
00:52:30.600 or I guess that it wouldn't have been a crime under the First Amendment.
00:52:34.340 This was withheld from my defense attorneys by the judge at trial.
00:52:39.120 So these people will destroy your life.
00:52:41.960 I saw a clip of Barack Obama saying that we're irresponsible
00:52:46.020 if we suggest that the government might be corrupt.
00:52:49.740 Really?
00:52:50.700 Well, his administration and its players targeted me,
00:52:55.080 as they did General Flynn, as they did Papadopoulos,
00:52:58.400 as they did Carter Page.
00:53:01.420 So it is outrageous.
00:53:03.860 And you're absolutely right.
00:53:04.720 This is why, sadly, they will do anything,
00:53:07.720 including trying to kill a president.
00:53:10.300 Look, we now know that the Homeland Security,
00:53:15.360 the Secret Service, the state police, and the local police
00:53:18.340 are all on different radio frequencies.
00:53:21.240 We know a man with a gun is seen walking openly inside the perimeter,
00:53:25.420 that the Secret Service knows he's there for 92 minutes,
00:53:30.320 and they don't advise Trump, nor do they remove him.
00:53:34.160 They let him take the stage.
00:53:36.220 Clay Higgins is doing amazing work
00:53:38.980 and has learned that there's a high probability
00:53:41.960 that the accused shooter was actually killed first,
00:53:46.120 shot first by a local police officer,
00:53:49.000 and then quickly behind by a Secret Service counter-sniper.
00:53:53.200 They destroy the—they cremate the body.
00:53:56.340 Why would they do that so quickly?
00:53:58.320 They wash down the crime scene where his body is found.
00:54:02.360 Reminded me when LBJ had them hose out Kennedy's limousine
00:54:06.280 within an hour of his murder.
00:54:09.060 So it is—you're right.
00:54:11.520 These people will do absolutely anything,
00:54:15.320 and we have to be cognizant of it.
00:54:17.620 It is only through the grace of God
00:54:20.060 that we survived the fight today,
00:54:22.960 and the smears and attacks keep coming.
00:54:27.380 Every federal district judgeship has a duty judge at night.
00:54:33.440 You need that judge's phone number.
00:54:35.480 Your lawyer does if you need to file an emergency motion.
00:54:39.240 Every lawyer knows this.
00:54:40.840 Republicans need to have that number.
00:54:42.600 When I say that, people say,
00:54:44.800 Stone says the judges are in Trump's pocket.
00:54:47.540 It's not what I said.
00:54:48.480 Not even close to what I said.
00:54:51.040 Anyway, great to be back with you on the Stone Zone, folks.

00:55:31.880 Roger Stone.
00:55:33.040 Where's Roger Stone?

00:55:46.680 Yeah.
00:55:47.680 He's mad.
00:55:47.920 He's mad.
00:55:48.500 He's mad.
00:55:50.220 And I'm going,
00:55:51.000 I'm got to beat up.
00:55:51.480 I'm, I'm going,
00:55:52.420 To
00:55:55.780 Christopher,
00:55:57.140 you
