00:00:04.480 The one question, Bob, everyone's asking is, are we in an artificial intelligence bubble?
00:00:10.080 You've been through boom and busts. What do you think?
00:00:12.860 No hype, no myths, just what actually matters to your money.
00:00:17.440 Does feel very similar to what we experienced in the 90s. Where are we, though? Are we in 1995,
00:00:23.020 1997, 1999? Listen to the Payne Points of Wealth on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:00:44.960 The Stone Zone. Entertaining and informative.
00:00:49.140 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:00:52.180 You are now entering the Stone Zone.
00:00:55.660 It is so incredibly good to be back in the saddle, back in the zone.
00:01:01.200 I was sidelined by four days of laryngitis.
00:01:05.340 Deep appreciation to my colleague, the great Greg Kelly, for filling in for me.
00:01:11.100 Greg Kelly, once again, made my 17th annual International Best Dressed list.
00:01:17.900 One more year, and I'm going to have to move Greg Kelly to the Hall of Fame,
00:01:23.420 the fashion icon category, along with our mutual colleague, Larry Kudlow.
00:01:29.580 Also, last Friday, January 9th, I was not able to join you,
00:01:34.540 but it was the birthday of, I'm sorry, but one of our greatest American presidents,
00:01:40.840 Richard Milhouse Nixon, you know, Nixon, the guy who got a strategic arms limitation agreement
00:01:48.320 with the Soviets, who ended the war in Vietnam on a much faster timetable than the Pentagon wanted.
00:01:56.480 The man who launched the program for federal revenue sharing.
00:02:03.180 The president who integrated the public schools without incident or tragedy.
00:02:09.880 The president who opened the door to China at a time that China was a backwards, 0.99
00:02:16.240 deeply poor agrarian society without indoor plumbing or electricity.
00:02:24.140 There was no way for Richard Nixon to know that 30 years later,
00:02:28.300 President Bill Clinton would give them most favored nation trading status,
00:02:32.940 which has made them the danger to the world that they are today.
00:02:38.140 So, happy birthday, Richard Nixon, 113 years old, last Friday.
00:02:45.260 I really regretted not being on the air that day.
00:02:48.900 Tonight's show opens with sad news.
00:02:51.660 Scott Adams, the creator of the iconic Dilbert cartoon script,
00:02:57.120 and one of America's most influential cultural commentators,
00:03:01.180 who's been a guest here in the Stone Zone several times, died at the age of 68.
00:03:07.240 The announcement was made Tuesday morning by his ex-wife and caregiver, Shelley Miles,
00:03:13.440 who shared this final message that I now bring to you.
00:03:18.060 Scott Adams said,
00:03:18.960 If you're reading this, things did not go well for me.
00:03:22.560 I have a few things to say before I go.
00:03:24.980 My body fell before my brain.
00:03:27.160 I am of sound mind as I write this on January 1st, 2026.
00:03:31.800 If you wonder about any of my choices for my estate or anything else,
00:03:35.780 please know I am free of any inappropriate influence of any sort.
00:03:39.520 I promise you that.
00:03:40.940 Next, many of my Christian friends have suggested to me that I find Jesus before I go.
00:03:47.240 Now, I have not been a believer.
00:03:49.820 I have to admit the risk-reward calculation for doing so is attractive to me, so here I go.
00:03:56.940 I accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, and I look forward to spending an attorney with him.
00:04:03.420 The part about me not being a believer should be quickly resolved.
00:04:06.760 If I wake up in heaven, I won't need any more convincing than that.
00:04:11.220 I hope I'm still qualified for entry.
00:04:13.840 Now, I think that if you declare Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, as I have done,
00:04:20.420 and by the way, I've been roasted by the Washington Monthly for professing my faith publicly,
00:04:25.700 but I was baptized as a Roman Catholic.
00:04:29.040 I received my first Holy Communion and my confirmation,
00:04:34.040 baptized at St. Mary's Church in Norwalk, Connecticut,
00:04:36.680 one of the most beautiful Catholic churches in the northeastern United States,
00:04:41.320 received my first Holy Communion at St. Aloysius,
00:04:46.420 same place I was confirmed, St. Aloysius in New Canaan, Connecticut.
00:04:50.800 And I admit to you, I wandered very far from the Lord.
00:04:54.380 In my heyday as a powerful Washington lobbyist and power broker,
00:04:57.940 I did some truly crazy things, things I now regret, things I have atoned for.
00:05:04.120 But your declaration of Christ as your Savior has to be sincere.
00:05:10.340 And I hope, because I loved Scott Adams, I loved his humor, I loved having him as a guest,
00:05:16.340 I hope that his was sincere and that he now rests with the Lord in all eternity.
00:05:23.260 Best known for skewering corporate absurdity through his comic strip Dilbert,
00:05:28.420 Scott Adams brought laughter to millions of Americans navigating cubicles,
00:05:32.880 bureaucracy, and managerial nonsense in soulless corporate America.
00:05:37.820 What began as a comic strip back in 1989 evolved into a short critique of modern professional life
00:05:44.660 and a reminder to laugh at systems that often take themselves way too seriously.
00:05:49.440 In later years, Scott Adams' journey took an ideological turn.
00:05:53.680 He became a best-selling author, most notably with his book,
00:05:57.400 How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big,
00:06:00.240 and a daily commentator through Real Coffee with Scott Adams, a great show.
00:06:04.720 He stood out for his outspoken support for President Donald Trump,
00:06:08.440 correctly predicting Trump's 2016 victory when very few others ventured forward to say so.
00:06:14.940 Adams always maintained his independent, skeptical mindset, however, was never a follower.
00:06:19.080 Always expressed his honest opinion, for better or for worse,
00:06:23.500 and had the courage to dissent.
00:06:25.540 In short, he was a great American, and his is a great story.
00:06:29.900 For his legacy, Scott Adams asked only one thing,
00:06:33.200 that others pay it forward, be useful, and live generously.
00:06:38.060 And hopefully his conversion to Christianity will inspire others to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior,
00:06:43.460 remembering that you may not have the opportunity to do so on your deathbed.
00:06:47.080 So, Scott Adams, my friend, may you rest in peace.
00:06:52.640 Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton are now refusing to testify
00:06:57.520 before congressional investigators over their connections to the deceased pedophile predator,
00:07:02.880 Jeffrey Epstein.
00:07:04.300 The Clintons were subpoenaed by Committee Chairman James Comer of Kentucky
00:07:08.020 as part of an investigation into their documented interactions with the convicted sex trafficker Epstein
00:07:14.940 and his pimp Ghislaine Maxwell, including multiple flights aboard Epstein's private jet.
00:07:22.100 Bill Clinton, if you look at my book,
00:07:23.940 The Clintons War on Women, published in 2015,
00:07:26.120 was on the Lolita Express, as they called Jeffrey Epstein's private jet,
00:07:32.500 no less than 27 times,
00:07:35.240 and based on the sworn testimony that I have read
00:07:38.580 from at least three of the cases of women who refused
00:07:42.740 multi-million dollar settlements to press forward with lawsuits against Epstein,
00:07:47.060 plus the FAA manifests,
00:07:49.500 which I published in my 2015 book,
00:07:52.880 Bill Clinton was on the island at least three times.
00:07:57.560 This all in the face of claims until recently by Bill Clinton
00:08:01.380 that he'd never been on the island.
00:08:03.140 That was a lie.
00:08:05.220 And, by the way,
00:08:06.480 Ghislaine Maxwell,
00:08:07.460 who also vouched for that
00:08:09.300 only months ago.
00:08:11.260 Instead, hours before the deadline,
00:08:13.760 the Clintons submitted an eight-page letter
00:08:15.580 declaring Comer's subpoenas invalid and legally unenforceable
00:08:19.500 and vowing to resist compliance indefinitely.
00:08:21.880 Now, I'm not a fan of Steve Bannon.
00:08:24.100 We'll talk about that in a little bit.
00:08:25.860 I do like Peter Navarro,
00:08:27.800 the president's former and, once again, trade advisor.
00:08:32.840 But when both of them refused to testify before the House,
00:08:37.860 they were charged, convicted, and jailed.
00:08:40.640 For contempt.
00:08:42.940 So, do we have a one-tiered justice system,
00:08:47.500 or do we have a two-tiered justice system? 1.00
00:08:50.020 You see the same thing in the case of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.
00:08:55.500 Now, I was charged with lying under oath to Congress,
00:08:59.600 despite the fact that no misstatement I made was material,
00:09:03.720 meaning I had no motive to lie
00:09:05.860 because there was no underlying crime to lie about.
00:09:09.120 The judge said at my sentencing,
00:09:10.640 you have been convicted of covering up for Donald Trump,
00:09:13.900 to which I say, covering up what?
00:09:16.620 The Russian collusion that didn't exist?
00:09:18.800 That never happened?
00:09:19.860 Now, Jerome Powell very specifically lied before the U.S. Senate
00:09:24.260 on the question of the $3.1 billion renovation
00:09:29.440 of the palatial headquarters for the Federal Reserve.
00:09:32.700 He specifically said that that development plan had no private elevators
00:09:39.640 for the Federal Reserve Board governors,
00:09:42.220 no private dining room,
00:09:43.920 no lush roof garden with a special atrium.
00:09:48.080 All those things were material lies, lies that involved literally millions of dollars
00:09:53.900 that belonged to the American taxpayers.
00:09:56.800 It's amazing that the heads of the central banks in countries around the world have all stepped forward
00:10:05.020 to support Jerome Powell, to which I say, what business is it of theirs?
00:10:11.260 It doesn't matter whether he's the chairman of the Federal Reserve,
00:10:15.300 an appointed position.
00:10:16.820 It doesn't matter whether he's used that position politically.
00:10:20.440 See, he's the one who's political
00:10:21.940 because based on the current rate of inflation
00:10:25.040 and based on the current rate of unemployment,
00:10:28.480 Donald Trump deserved and the country should have had
00:10:31.460 a much deeper interest rate cut.
00:10:33.700 So it's not Trump playing politics.
00:10:37.880 Pardon me, it's Powell playing politics.
00:10:40.720 Anyway, the House committee has now initiated
00:10:43.140 a contempt of Congress proceeding against Bill and Hillary.
00:10:46.460 Contempt of Congress carries a penalty of up to $100,000 in fines
00:10:50.220 and a year in jail if enforced by the Justice Department,
00:10:53.700 although critics note such charges are rarely pursued
00:10:56.580 unless, of course, you're a Trump-supporting Republican,
00:10:59.960 in which case they're pursued very vigorously.
00:11:02.500 The refusal comes weeks after the Trump Justice Department
00:11:05.880 released its first round of Epstein files,
00:11:08.440 documents that prominently reference Bill Clinton.
00:11:11.060 So rather than cooperate,
00:11:12.260 the Clintons have assembled a high-powered legal team
00:11:14.560 in an attempt to skirt justice.
00:11:16.840 In their letter, the Clintons accused Comer
00:11:18.660 of conducting a politically-motored investigation
00:11:20.880 designed to imprison them,
00:11:22.760 claimed they're now prepared to fight for this country
00:11:24.980 by defying the U.S. Congress.
00:11:27.420 I think they just described exactly what they tried to do to Donald Trump.
00:11:32.500 So they're now hoist on their own petard, as they say.
00:11:36.020 The Trump Justice Department should initiate criminal charges
00:11:38.980 against the Clintons for contempt of Congress.
00:11:41.420 They must be held accountable for any potential participation
00:11:44.600 in Jeffrey Epstein's child sex network,
00:11:47.020 as well as the other hosts of crimes they're guilty of,
00:11:49.880 whether it's Whitewater, Russiagate,
00:11:52.600 Vince Foster's death, Seth Rich, or you name it.
00:11:56.840 When we come back, I have a good laugh over the fact
00:12:01.300 that Stinky Steve Bannon says he's running for president.
00:12:05.440 First of all, this guy doesn't look like he can run.
00:12:07.440 He doesn't look like he's done a sit-up
00:12:09.020 or seen his own feet in 30 years.
00:12:11.520 But despite the fact that he rarely bathes, doesn't shave,
00:12:15.920 he kind of has the toothless hobo look down pat,
00:12:19.360 he now wants us to believe he's running for president.
00:12:22.000 By doing so, I think he exposes the fact that it's he
00:12:25.260 that had a very close working relationship with Jeffrey Epstein
00:12:28.500 after Epstein was convicted of sex crimes in Florida
00:12:31.520 and before he was re-indicted for child sex trafficking in 2019.
00:12:36.700 So I'll have a lot more to say about Steve Bannon
00:12:39.380 and his nascent bid for the presidency,
00:12:41.940 if I can stop laughing that long.
00:12:44.680 I'm Roger Stone. You're back in the Stone Zone.
00:12:47.000 It's great to be back in the saddle again.
00:12:48.800 And please don't go away, because we'll be right back.
00:12:52.000 Every week, the Payne family cuts straight to the real financial story.
00:12:58.680 The one question, Bob, everyone's asking is,
00:13:01.620 are we in an artificial intelligence bubble?
00:13:04.340 You've been through boom and busts.
00:13:06.300 What do you think?
00:13:07.080 No hype, no myths.
00:13:09.280 Just what actually matters to your money.
00:13:11.700 It does feel very similar to what we experienced in the 90s.
00:13:15.160 Where are we, though?
00:13:15.820 Are we in 1995, 1997, 1999?
00:13:19.140 Listen to the Paying Points of Wealth on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:13:24.940 The Stone Zone.
00:13:26.940 Entertaining and informative.
00:13:29.100 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:13:31.960 Welcome back into the Stone Zone.
00:13:34.760 I can't tell you how much I appreciate those warm words from Vice President J.D. Vance.
00:13:39.900 Evidently, Vance has a new challenger for the Republican nomination in 2028.
00:13:45.940 The megalomaniacal narcissist Steve Bannon thinks he's running for president. 0.92
00:13:50.980 This news surprises nobody who knows who's been following this lunatic. 0.92
00:13:55.360 Bannon has always seen himself, not President Donald Trump, as the top dog in the MAGA movement.
00:14:01.180 Back in 2020, 2019, 2020, Bannon was positive that Trump was guilty of Russian collusion.
00:14:08.320 At least that's what he told the author Michael Wolff.
00:14:11.220 And Bannon was planning his 2020 campaign, a campaign that never happened.
00:14:17.240 Now, yeah, I've got a real beef with Bannon.
00:14:19.140 For those who don't know, he perjured himself in his testimony against me at my trial,
00:14:23.300 saying one thing before the House Intelligence Committee under oath,
00:14:27.740 where he claimed that he had never discussed WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, or the allegedly stolen emails with me,
00:14:35.200 and then completely reversing himself on the stand at my trial,
00:14:39.640 where he showed up as a surprise witness for Robert Mueller.
00:14:44.160 There he said that he and I had discussed WikiLeaks and Julian Assange,
00:14:49.480 and the allegedly stolen emails in every phone conversation we had in 2016.
00:14:54.960 By the way, I took a lie detector test.
00:14:57.020 In fact, I took three tests that proved that that was not true.
00:15:01.740 So Bannon was basically trying to throw me over the side,
00:15:06.360 paint me as a criminal and part of a likely deal to save his own hide.
00:15:09.800 You see, he stole $15 million from the We Build the Wall project,
00:15:15.220 a federal crime that President Trump pardoned him for him,
00:15:17.960 and then he was re-indicted in New York State,
00:15:21.060 and was supposed to go to trial in Manhattan before the very same judge as President Trump.
00:15:27.420 And strangely enough, Bannon pled guilty to that theft
00:15:31.520 and received a sentence of no jail time from a liberal Democrat judge.
00:15:37.260 I really hope Bannon does go through with it and runs for president in 2028, and here's why.
00:15:42.760 You see, he has nowhere to hide.
00:15:44.320 Right now, Bannon hides in a tightly controlled echo chamber,
00:15:47.400 barking at loyal podcast listeners who never even asked him hard questions.
00:15:52.220 But put him on a debate stage under bright lights, shoulder-to-shoulder with real candidates,
00:15:57.280 although I doubt he can get on the ballot in most states, and there's nowhere to run.
00:16:01.600 The record's clear.
00:16:02.580 After Jeffrey Epstein's crimes were known,
00:16:04.860 after the world understood the depth of Epstein's depravity,
00:16:09.020 Bannon still sought him out, not accidentally, not casually, but deliberately.
00:16:12.820 Bannon wasn't some naive bystander.
00:16:15.680 He was advising Epstein, strategizing with him, helping him to plot image rehabilitation,
00:16:21.220 discussing ways to demonize Epstein's victims as part of a morally bankrupt image consulting scheme.
00:16:27.840 All of this is proven in the emails that were recently released by the House Oversight Committee.
00:16:33.960 The emails showed Bannon coordinating puff-piece documentary efforts,
00:16:38.440 arranging access to Epstein's private island,
00:16:41.540 and responding approvingly to claims that President Trump feared his friendship with the sex predator.
00:16:48.200 This wasn't journalism. 1.00
00:16:49.520 This was a desperate, disgraced slob doing damage control for a mobster who destroyed lives. 1.00
00:16:56.260 This is in no way comparable to President Donald Trump, 0.90
00:16:59.460 who cut ties with Epstein way back in 2004 and banned him from Mar-a-Lago and all of his properties
00:17:05.880 once it became known that Epstein was a pedophile.
00:17:10.500 Bannon did the exact opposite.
00:17:12.140 He moved closer to Epstein when others ran away.
00:17:14.980 So if Steve Bannon thinks he's going to crown himself as the prophet of populism post-Trump,
00:17:20.000 he should understand this.
00:17:21.740 His Epstein record will be fair game, front and center.
00:17:24.400 And no amount of bluster, podcasts, or fake bravado
00:17:27.880 will prevent Steve Bannon from being exposed on the grandest of stages.
00:17:32.280 Vanity will be Steve Bannon's downfall,
00:17:34.840 and I'm going to pursue this bloated, gin-soaked windbag 0.94
00:17:41.620 because he has the gall to go through a presidential bid.
00:17:45.340 I will be there to ask the hard, hard questions.
00:17:48.880 When we come back, Iran and the brutal regime there is teetering. 0.67
00:17:54.820 On the brink of destruction, we need to pray for that.
00:17:59.300 We'll talk about it when we return to the Stone Zone.
00:18:01.780 So please, don't go away.
00:18:06.880 The Stone Zone.
00:18:08.860 Entertaining and informative.
00:18:10.880 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:18:12.820 And we're back in the Stone Zone.
00:18:16.180 I'm so happy to be back with you after five days in a sickbed,
00:18:20.200 but a strict regimen of vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc,
00:18:24.480 which makes the vitamin C more effective, bed rest, and a lot of water.
00:18:29.720 And I'm back on my feet and feeling fit as a fiddle.
00:18:34.420 Iran stands at a historic inflection report right now,
00:18:38.000 one whose consequences really go far beyond the Middle East.
00:18:41.120 To understand today's unrest, Americans should recall a truth often forgotten.
00:18:47.080 And that is before 1979, Iran was a modern, forward-looking nation.
00:18:53.120 Tehran was a cosmopolitan city of universities, commerce, and culture.
00:18:57.760 Iranian women, dressed freely, were allowed to be educated,
00:19:01.740 students studied abroad in the country.
00:19:03.300 While most definitely imperfect under the Shah, 0.85
00:19:08.020 who was very far from an exemplar of human rights, to be sure,
00:19:12.560 was nonetheless oriented towards development and engagement with the West.
00:19:17.260 That path ended in 1979 with the Iranian Revolution,
00:19:22.400 when radical clerics led by Ayatollah Khomeini overthrew the monarchy
00:19:26.520 and imposed a theocratic regime rooted in religious absolutism.
00:19:31.380 This is one of the most brutal regimes in the history of the world.
00:19:36.860 President Jimmy Carter, the peanut farmer from Georgia,
00:19:40.660 who I think lacked any level of sophistication when it came to international affairs,
00:19:45.620 betrayed our longtime ally, the Shah.
00:19:49.720 President Richard Nixon predicted that this day would come.
00:19:53.080 He saw this coming.
00:19:54.600 He pointed out, in his words,
00:19:56.180 that the new Iranian government was not a government, but a mob.
00:20:01.100 So this was not a revolution of freedom, but a revolution of repression.
00:20:05.840 Almost immediately, the new rulers defined the United States as their chief enemy.
00:20:10.600 You'll recall culminated in the 1979 seizure of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran.
00:20:15.440 Fifty-two Americans were held hostage for 445 days,
00:20:20.360 and a calculated act of state-sponsored terrorism that signaled how the regime would rule
00:20:25.100 through intimidation and spectacle, not to mention brutality.
00:20:29.880 From that revolution emerged the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, or the IRGC,
00:20:36.720 now the most powerful force in Iran.
00:20:39.000 The IRGC dominates large parts of the economy, enforces domestic repression,
00:20:44.640 and directs terrorist proxies across the region.
00:20:47.640 Its mission is not national defense, but regime survival,
00:20:51.380 and the export of Islamist national defense.
00:20:54.780 But U.S. allies and allied sanctions aimed to cut off the system from global finance
00:21:00.840 and denying it resources for terror and nuclear ambitions have been successful.
00:21:05.140 And today, the regime teeters on the brink of collapse because the quality of life,
00:21:11.520 the availability and cost of food, the availability of jobs,
00:21:15.860 the safety of neighborhoods no longer exists.
00:21:19.200 The greatest victims, sadly, are the ordinary Iranians who increasingly reject clerical rule. 0.75
00:21:26.180 Across the country now, women, students, and workers protest corruption,
00:21:30.460 repression, and the economic ruin that the Ayatollahs have brought. 1.00
00:21:35.140 Despite the brutal crackdowns, the demonstrations continue.
00:21:39.140 That is what impresses me the most, the incredible courage of the Iranian people,
00:21:44.040 because this is a brutal regime.
00:21:46.960 They have done mass public executions of their political opponents.
00:21:51.800 And the brutality of the regime and the severity of their secret police cannot be underestimated.
00:22:01.920 History shows why no regime can endure forever once it governs only by fear.
00:22:07.920 What we're witnessing in Iran is not a passing disturbance,
00:22:11.740 but the slow erosion of a system that has lost the consent of its people
00:22:16.060 and a nation determined to reclaim its future.
00:22:19.700 President Trump clearly supporting the resistance.
00:22:22.300 The time is now to send the Islamic dictatorship into the ash bin of history. 1.00
00:22:26.920 Now, there are those who have advocated a return of the Shah's son 0.80
00:22:31.220 and a restoration of the House of Pahlavi.
00:22:34.140 I'll get a thousand trolls attacking me on social media right after the program,
00:22:38.980 but I don't think going from theocracy back to a monarchy is the answer.
00:22:43.700 The people of Iran need democratic elections and freedom,
00:22:50.980 and we all pray for that result.
00:22:54.380 Now we know that Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, the Somalian immigrant, 0.80
00:23:00.220 is facing renewed scrutiny after lawmakers uncovered a proposed earmark
00:23:05.200 directing more than $1 million of our tax money to a little-known
00:23:09.600 Somali-led addiction recovery organization that apparently shares an address with a restaurant.
00:23:16.500 The controversy resurfaced this week as Congress unveiled a massive $174 billion spending package.
00:23:24.100 Senator Joni Ernst, a Republican of Iowa, identified a $1,031,000 earmark.
00:23:32.580 That's a piece of legislation put forward by a very specific legislator for a very specific source.
00:23:39.600 Rooted through the Department of Justice for an organization called Generation Hope Minnesota.
00:23:45.700 The request was included alongside funding proposals co-led by Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar,
00:23:53.000 a woman who combs her hair with buttered toast,
00:23:55.800 and the other senator who I've never heard of and couldn't identify in a police lineup, Tina Smith.
00:24:01.960 According to Ernst, the earmark was described as funding for a substance abuse clinic.
00:24:06.740 However, her staff found the group was operating out of the same address as a Somali restaurant,
00:24:12.540 with leadership tied to a single residential home.
00:24:16.480 Ernst said the situation has a ton of red flags,
00:24:19.760 and said that Congress ultimately stripped the funding from the bill.
00:24:23.560 Generation Hope Minnesota, founded in 2019,
00:24:27.840 describes itself as serving East African communities in the Twin Cities.
00:24:31.760 Reporting indicates the organization listed multiple addresses,
00:24:36.480 including one matching the restaurant location,
00:24:38.700 raising further questions about transparency and oversight.
00:24:41.880 Senator Ernst says she is now working to redirect the funds towards federal fraud prevention efforts,
00:24:47.660 warning that Minnesota has become a hot spot for misuse of federal dollars,
00:24:52.680 almost all of it flowing to its large proportion of Somali residents.
00:24:57.760 Subsequently, Omar made headlines over the weekend after joining protests outside of Minneapolis Immigration and Customs Enforcement Facility,
00:25:06.000 where she was reportedly denied entry while attempting to confront federal agents.
00:25:10.480 It's no surprise why Ilhan Omar is fighting against an investigation into the Somali community.
00:25:16.800 She's a product of Somali fraud, 1.00
00:25:18.800 having been exposed for marrying her own brother
00:25:21.820 as part of the immigration fraud scheme that allowed her to enter the United States
00:25:26.540 and become a U.S. citizen.
00:25:28.220 And it has been alleged that she embezzled money through a consulting grift
00:25:32.360 with her now-lily-white husband.
00:25:35.780 Ilhan Omar is a testimony to the fruits of diversity and multiculturalism
00:25:39.880 and what it brings to our nation.
00:25:41.580 It's time to send her back to Somali, 1.00
00:25:43.740 or Sudan,
00:25:44.940 or Burundi,
00:25:45.900 or any place that will actually take her.
00:25:48.440 Meanwhile, the Colorado Governor Jared Polis
00:25:52.520 is considering whether to grant clemency
00:25:54.440 to County Clerk Tina Peters,
00:25:57.580 the former County Clerk,
00:25:58.980 currently serving a nine-year prison sentence
00:26:01.220 over bogus election fraud charges.
00:26:04.740 Tina Peters' crime was 1.00
00:26:06.240 making a copy
00:26:07.700 of records that would prove
00:26:10.300 that the vote in Colorado
00:26:12.700 had been manipulated.
00:26:14.380 And for that crime, she was given a brutal nine-year sentence.
00:26:17.280 Tina Peters has also appeared here in the Stone Zone.
00:26:20.880 She is a good friend of mine,
00:26:22.380 and she is in poor health
00:26:23.660 and declining health.
00:26:26.880 I think it is imperative
00:26:28.680 that she be released.
00:26:30.660 There is a glimmer of hope here.
00:26:32.740 Speaking with CBS Colorado on Wednesday,
00:26:35.600 last Wednesday,
00:26:36.340 Governor Polis,
00:26:37.500 a Democrat,
00:26:38.260 described Peter's sentence as harsh
00:26:39.900 and said the state routinely reviews
00:26:42.100 lengthy prison terms,
00:26:43.240 particularly for elderly inmates,
00:26:44.640 to determine whether they pose
00:26:46.440 a threat to public safety.
00:26:48.100 Tina Peters is in her 70s
00:26:49.900 and a cancer survivor,
00:26:51.860 factors that the governor acknowledged
00:26:53.540 while stopping short
00:26:54.600 of committing to any specific action.
00:26:57.300 This case has drawn national attention
00:26:59.580 after President Trump publicly criticized Polis
00:27:01.940 and called for Peter's release.
00:27:03.740 Trump has repeatedly described Peters
00:27:05.460 as a political prisoner,
00:27:07.100 noting she was targeted
00:27:08.100 for questioning election integrity.
00:27:10.240 In a New Year's Eve post on True Social,
00:27:12.240 Trump said Peters is sick
00:27:14.060 and being held in a Colorado
00:27:15.600 maximum security prison
00:27:17.220 for trying to expose
00:27:18.080 what he called widespread voter fraud.
00:27:21.560 Last year,
00:27:22.520 President Trump requested
00:27:23.580 that the governor transfer Peters
00:27:25.680 into a federal custody
00:27:26.880 so she could receive
00:27:28.220 a presidential pardon.
00:27:30.040 Polis refused,
00:27:31.020 and although Trump later issued a pardon,
00:27:32.740 it carries no legal effect
00:27:34.040 on Peters' state conviction.
00:27:36.800 And that is why this poor woman 1.00
00:27:38.180 continues to languish
00:27:39.420 in a harsh Colorado state prison.
00:27:42.240 Peters was sentenced in 2024
00:27:44.720 following a jury verdict
00:27:46.640 that found her guilty
00:27:47.700 on multiple counts
00:27:48.500 related to an alleged data breach
00:27:50.560 tied to the election system.
00:27:52.360 Basically, she was prosecuted
00:27:54.020 because she wanted to investigate
00:27:55.220 what was in the mysterious
00:27:56.460 ballot processing computers.
00:27:58.620 She was made into a cruel example 1.00
00:28:01.620 by the courts
00:28:02.340 as part of the still ongoing cover-up
00:28:04.980 of the 2020 presidential election,
00:28:07.240 which I and many others believe was stolen.
00:28:10.120 An issue of clemency
00:28:11.920 from Governor Polis
00:28:12.900 would be the decent
00:28:13.660 and moral thing to do,
00:28:15.300 but it will take political courage
00:28:16.800 as he will certainly receive pushback
00:28:18.540 from his radicalized
00:28:19.720 left-wing Democrat constituents.
00:28:22.240 The people must make their voices heard,
00:28:24.140 urging the governor
00:28:24.820 to do what is right,
00:28:26.180 and please grant clemency
00:28:27.920 to Tina Peters.
00:28:29.340 God bless her 0.99
00:28:30.140 and keep her 0.92
00:28:30.880 as this plays out.
00:28:33.300 Meanwhile,
00:28:34.200 the January 6th Capitol
00:28:36.400 police Gestapo thug
00:28:38.380 came forward
00:28:40.060 to suggest
00:28:40.580 that ICE enforcers,
00:28:42.760 officers working for ICE, 0.99
00:28:44.260 should be shot. 1.00
00:28:45.460 Michael Fanon, 0.99
00:28:46.820 a member of Nancy Pelosi's
00:28:48.300 Capitol Gestapo
00:28:49.260 on January 6th,
00:28:50.520 who went on a crying victim tour
00:28:52.640 for the cameras
00:28:53.300 after the Fed surrection,
00:28:55.800 is now suggesting
00:28:56.800 that ICE agents 0.99
00:28:57.860 should be shot. 0.98
00:28:59.640 During a recent appearance 0.99
00:29:00.820 on MSNBC,
00:29:02.960 Fanon said,
00:29:03.640 this ain't even the first time
00:29:05.040 that someone has been
00:29:05.660 seriously injured
00:29:06.400 or lost their lives.
00:29:07.700 I appreciate the foul language
00:29:09.120 coming out of the mouths
00:29:10.020 of the mayor of Minneapolis,
00:29:11.660 and I think that his sentiment
00:29:12.560 in the moment
00:29:13.120 was appropriate.
00:29:14.280 That being said,
00:29:15.120 what are you doing?
00:29:16.140 What are you doing
00:29:17.220 to keep me safe?
00:29:18.020 What are you doing
00:29:18.400 to keep my mother safe,
00:29:19.480 my sister safe,
00:29:20.300 you know,
00:29:20.860 my community safe
00:29:22.060 from these thugs?
00:29:23.520 That's what I need to hear
00:29:24.560 coming out of these agents
00:29:25.640 or these officers,
00:29:26.400 because if you're not going
00:29:27.100 to do it,
00:29:27.900 then it's time
00:29:28.360 for the American people
00:29:29.100 to organize
00:29:29.660 and utilize
00:29:30.540 their Second Amendment right
00:29:31.540 to protect themselves
00:29:32.380 from what has clearly
00:29:33.460 become an unaccountable
00:29:34.620 and lawless agency 0.98
00:29:35.680 in killing Americans. 0.92
00:29:37.560 See, this is very typical 0.99
00:29:38.760 on the left.
00:29:40.000 This is what's called
00:29:40.980 Alinskyism,
00:29:42.680 named after the famous
00:29:43.860 communist operative
00:29:45.880 and agitator
00:29:46.580 Saul Alinsky.
00:29:48.760 Those on the left
00:29:50.000 always accuse
00:29:51.080 those on the right
00:29:52.320 of doing exactly that
00:29:54.300 which they themselves
00:29:55.360 are doing.
00:29:56.940 So ICE agents
00:29:58.000 are trying to arrest
00:29:59.360 and report violent,
00:30:01.220 dangerous,
00:30:01.780 non-resident criminals
00:30:03.900 and that is the only way
00:30:06.120 that America
00:30:06.760 will become safer again.
00:30:08.740 So Fanon
00:30:09.560 has a history
00:30:10.820 of making these
00:30:11.640 hysterical inflammatory
00:30:13.060 attacks against
00:30:13.840 President Trump
00:30:14.500 even once comparing him
00:30:16.280 to the alleged
00:30:16.980 9-11 mastermind
00:30:18.340 Osama bin Laden
00:30:19.760 not to mention
00:30:20.800 of course
00:30:21.260 Adolf Hitler.
00:30:23.180 Here's one of Stone's rules.
00:30:25.360 Anytime your political
00:30:26.460 opponent in debate
00:30:27.420 brings up Adolf Hitler 0.84
00:30:28.700 it means they're
00:30:29.740 losing the debate.
00:30:31.140 Since the death
00:30:32.420 of Antifa activist
00:30:33.700 and far-left agitator
00:30:35.020 Renee Good
00:30:36.060 in a Minneapolis
00:30:37.520 ice shooting
00:30:38.600 the left has accused
00:30:39.660 the federal officer
00:30:40.920 who shot her
00:30:42.160 of murder.
00:30:43.340 They want this 0.85
00:30:44.340 ice officer's head 0.72
00:30:45.220 on a pike 1.00
00:30:45.840 but it's not 2020
00:30:47.680 and the summer
00:30:48.800 of love anymore
00:30:50.080 when Black Lives Matter
00:30:52.040 Antifa burned down
00:30:53.260 a quarter of America.
00:30:54.660 The Trump administration
00:30:55.780 is standing by
00:30:56.720 the ICE agents
00:30:57.480 they're refusing
00:30:58.080 to back down.
00:30:59.260 Now I've watched
00:30:59.900 this video again
00:31:01.200 and again
00:31:01.900 and again
00:31:02.580 it's very clear
00:31:03.920 to me
00:31:04.560 that this woman
00:31:06.060 attempted
00:31:06.860 Renee Good
00:31:07.780 attempted to run down 0.87
00:31:08.960 and kill 0.83
00:31:09.480 an ICE agent 0.99
00:31:10.260 who is very clearly
00:31:11.620 in her path.
00:31:12.820 It doesn't matter
00:31:13.460 what the New York Times
00:31:14.260 says on page one
00:31:15.320 the New York Times
00:31:16.220 is not a journalistic
00:31:17.560 enterprise
00:31:18.440 nor it is a news outlet.
00:31:20.040 It is a propaganda
00:31:20.740 sheet for the
00:31:21.780 American left.
00:31:23.100 If it's in the New York Times
00:31:24.280 there's a 98% chance
00:31:26.040 that what you're reading
00:31:26.680 is neither true
00:31:27.780 nor accurate
00:31:28.860 and in this particular case
00:31:31.300 it is very clear
00:31:32.260 that egged on
00:31:33.680 by her husband
00:31:34.940 a woman who was 1.00
00:31:36.380 filming the entire incident
00:31:37.660 Renee Good
00:31:38.260 tried to kill
00:31:39.040 an ICE agent
00:31:40.120 using a motor vehicle
00:31:41.560 as her weapon
00:31:42.860 and therefore
00:31:44.080 although the fact
00:31:45.700 that she is shot
00:31:46.400 is unfortunate
00:31:47.120 it was also
00:31:49.060 done in self-defense.
00:31:51.260 The Trump administration
00:31:51.900 is refusing to back down
00:31:54.020 and expect even more
00:31:55.020 deranged responses
00:31:56.020 from the left.
00:31:57.200 They're an existential threat
00:31:58.360 to our constitutional republic
00:31:59.660 they're more of a threat
00:32:01.260 to our safety and security
00:32:02.400 than ISIS
00:32:02.940 and sadly
00:32:03.980 they must be treated
00:32:05.080 as such.

00:32:24.760 Welcome back
00:32:26.840 into The Stone Zone
00:32:28.200 I am so happy
00:32:29.200 to be back with you
00:32:30.160 after five days
00:32:31.760 in a sick bed
00:32:32.500 now I'm not a doctor
00:32:33.460 and I don't dispense
00:32:34.520 medical advice
00:32:35.900 but the fact
00:32:36.620 that I was able
00:32:37.180 to go to
00:32:37.620 allfamilypharmacy.com
00:32:39.820 and get a legal
00:32:41.300 and swift prescription
00:32:42.540 for ivermectin
00:32:43.560 and hydroxychloroquine
00:32:45.340 combined with my
00:32:46.660 vitamin regimen
00:32:47.800 and bed rest
00:32:48.640 is the reason
00:32:49.560 that I'm back with you
00:32:50.640 allfamilypharmacy.com
00:32:52.760 check it out
00:32:53.740 use code
00:32:55.000 STONE10
00:32:55.700 if you do
00:32:56.280 but it is
00:32:57.800 an excellent resource
00:32:59.020 particularly
00:32:59.580 this time of year
00:33:01.220 when there are
00:33:01.740 so many people sick
00:33:02.920 it's so cold
00:33:04.580 there are so many
00:33:05.440 germs
00:33:06.100 I think that's
00:33:06.720 what got me
00:33:07.620 after Donald Trump
00:33:09.200 decisively moved
00:33:10.520 the Venezuelan
00:33:11.240 strongman
00:33:11.920 Nicolas Maduro
00:33:13.200 and pursued
00:33:13.960 U.S. charges
00:33:14.900 against him
00:33:15.560 leftist leaders
00:33:16.840 across Latin America
00:33:18.060 are now scrambling
00:33:19.040 few appear
00:33:20.180 more rattled
00:33:20.920 than the outgoing
00:33:21.940 Honduran president
00:33:23.180 Xiomara Castro
00:33:24.660 once one of the
00:33:25.960 region's
00:33:26.400 largest anti-Trump
00:33:27.780 voices
00:33:28.160 for years
00:33:28.860 Castro
00:33:29.640 threatened to
00:33:30.280 block cooperation
00:33:31.160 on illegal immigration
00:33:32.420 tried to end
00:33:34.020 the extradition
00:33:35.500 agreement
00:33:36.600 with the United States
00:33:37.840 and even
00:33:38.320 expel U.S. forces
00:33:39.500 from Honduras
00:33:40.700 now
00:33:41.140 after her party
00:33:42.460 not just lost
00:33:43.520 a presidential election
00:33:44.580 but came in
00:33:45.480 a poor third
00:33:46.700 and their gambit
00:33:48.340 of taking
00:33:49.100 her vice president
00:33:50.280 and running him 0.99
00:33:51.800 as a third party
00:33:52.840 candidate
00:33:53.340 as the liberal
00:33:54.280 party candidate
00:33:55.640 Salvador Nasralla
00:33:57.780 this guy has one
00:33:58.760 of the worst toupees
00:33:59.540 I've ever seen
00:34:00.280 in politics
00:34:00.840 by the way
00:34:01.500 that little
00:34:02.840 trick
00:34:03.800 in New York
00:34:04.740 we call that
00:34:05.340 a ringer
00:34:05.980 it didn't work
00:34:07.460 and Tito
00:34:09.020 Asfura
00:34:09.840 the nationalist
00:34:10.920 party
00:34:11.320 narrowly won
00:34:12.160 that election
00:34:12.780 Nasfura
00:34:13.880 is strongly
00:34:14.780 pro-American
00:34:15.720 and pro-Trump
00:34:17.340 and anti-narco
00:34:18.780 trafficking
00:34:19.360 yes
00:34:20.360 I have seen
00:34:21.420 substantial evidence
00:34:22.520 that the current
00:34:23.280 Marxist
00:34:24.620 Honduran regime
00:34:26.660 engages in the same
00:34:27.960 type of
00:34:28.760 narco
00:34:29.360 drug trafficking
00:34:30.700 that the
00:34:31.540 that the
00:34:32.840 Venezuelan strongman
00:34:34.400 Nicolas Maduro
00:34:35.600 and his allies
00:34:36.480 engaged in
00:34:37.360 turned all that
00:34:38.400 information over
00:34:39.220 to the U.S.
00:34:40.560 Justice Department
00:34:41.840 now suddenly
00:34:42.660 Xiomar Castro
00:34:44.980 the outgoing
00:34:46.360 president
00:34:46.940 is calling
00:34:47.820 for a dialogue
00:34:48.620 with President
00:34:49.260 Trump
00:34:49.600 while at the
00:34:50.680 same time
00:34:51.100 trying to cast
00:34:51.820 doubt on the
00:34:52.460 election results
00:34:53.260 that didn't go
00:34:53.840 her way 0.96
00:34:54.320 this election
00:34:55.480 was won
00:34:56.360 by the
00:34:56.760 national party
00:34:57.440 Tito
00:34:58.400 Asfura
00:34:59.000 whose victory
00:35:00.360 was actually
00:35:00.960 certified
00:35:01.600 by Honduras
00:35:02.800 his nonpartisan
00:35:03.760 national electoral
00:35:04.760 council
00:35:05.400 and are recognized
00:35:06.600 by U.S.
00:35:07.480 authorities
00:35:07.840 such as
00:35:08.300 the Secretary
00:35:08.760 of State
00:35:09.220 Marco Rubio
00:35:10.460 and Commerce
00:35:11.200 Secretary
00:35:11.820 Howard
00:35:12.200 Lutnick
00:35:12.720 nations
00:35:13.520 across the
00:35:14.200 region
00:35:14.500 have also
00:35:15.000 recognized
00:35:15.700 Tito
00:35:16.500 Asfura
00:35:16.960 as the
00:35:17.340 president-elect
00:35:17.960 with countries
00:35:18.880 like Argentina
00:35:19.860 Bolivia
00:35:20.840 Ecuador
00:35:21.740 Paraguay
00:35:22.560 and Peru
00:35:23.060 releasing a
00:35:24.120 joint statement
00:35:24.820 rejecting
00:35:25.580 the games
00:35:26.700 being played
00:35:27.380 by the Castro
00:35:28.180 regime
00:35:28.880 meanwhile
00:35:29.880 Honduran 0.89
00:35:30.420 military leadership
00:35:31.480 has pledged
00:35:32.000 to uphold
00:35:32.540 the certified
00:35:33.040 results
00:35:33.640 even as
00:35:34.120 political
00:35:34.960 violence
00:35:35.560 linked to
00:35:36.080 Castro's
00:35:36.560 allies
00:35:37.020 including
00:35:37.880 a recent
00:35:38.460 bombing
00:35:38.940 at the
00:35:39.240 congressional
00:35:39.660 offices
00:35:40.140 where a
00:35:40.920 national
00:35:41.280 party
00:35:41.620 legislator
00:35:42.140 was attacked
00:35:42.720 escalates
00:35:43.400 with an
00:35:44.240 inauguration
00:35:44.920 set for
00:35:45.500 January 27
00:35:46.440 the choice
00:35:46.980 facing
00:35:47.360 Honduras
00:35:47.820 is clear
00:35:48.340 either
00:35:49.160 respect
00:35:49.660 the will
00:35:50.020 of the
00:35:50.240 voters
00:35:50.580 or allow
00:35:51.040 a defeated
00:35:51.620 disgraced
00:35:52.700 Marxist 0.97
00:35:53.560 political
00:35:53.960 faction
00:35:54.420 to drag
00:35:55.360 the country
00:35:55.900 into chaos
00:35:56.880 the people
00:35:57.300 of Honduras
00:35:57.900 have had
00:35:58.480 enough
00:35:58.800 they want
00:36:00.340 freedom
00:36:00.720 and to
00:36:01.080 make their
00:36:01.400 country
00:36:01.680 great again
00:36:02.300 they also
00:36:02.780 have allies
00:36:03.560 in the
00:36:04.220 Trump
00:36:04.440 administration
00:36:05.000 who are
00:36:05.380 not afraid
00:36:05.880 to take
00:36:06.300 a swift
00:36:06.700 and bold
00:36:07.300 stand
00:36:07.820 when freedom
00:36:08.680 hangs
00:36:09.140 in the
00:36:09.660 balance
00:36:10.080 as seen
00:36:10.560 recently
00:36:11.040 in Venezuela
00:36:11.720 we are
00:36:13.460 praying
00:36:14.040 for a
00:36:14.700 just
00:36:15.060 result
00:36:15.720 and for
00:36:16.440 those
00:36:16.840 who say
00:36:17.340 oh it's
00:36:17.880 hypocritical 0.97
00:36:18.660 that Trump 0.96
00:36:19.300 pardoned
00:36:20.900 a narco
00:36:21.640 de la
00:36:21.880 marxist
00:36:22.460 drug 0.80
00:36:22.940 trafficker
00:36:23.580 Juan
00:36:24.400 Orlando
00:36:25.380 Hernandez
00:36:26.100 the former
00:36:26.760 president
00:36:27.220 of Honduras
00:36:28.080 at the same
00:36:28.980 time he was
00:36:29.580 arresting
00:36:30.160 Maduro
00:36:30.560 in Venezuela
00:36:31.100 you haven't
00:36:32.100 studied the
00:36:32.640 case
00:36:32.980 because it's
00:36:34.080 clear that
00:36:34.680 Hernandez
00:36:35.100 was convicted
00:36:35.960 solely and
00:36:36.700 completely
00:36:37.140 based on
00:36:38.240 the testimony
00:36:38.820 of two
00:36:39.660 convicted
00:36:40.580 drug
00:36:41.160 traffickers 0.98
00:36:41.760 and murderers 0.99
00:36:42.620 both of
00:36:43.460 whom were
00:36:44.360 extradited to
00:36:45.260 the United
00:36:45.680 States for
00:36:46.640 trial and
00:36:47.520 conviction
00:36:48.000 by President
00:36:49.420 Juan Orlando
00:36:50.420 Hernandez
00:36:50.900 so this was
00:36:51.740 about payback
00:36:52.940 Hernandez
00:36:53.820 was framed
00:36:55.340 and any
00:36:56.100 examination
00:36:56.580 of that
00:36:57.220 trial
00:36:57.700 will show
00:36:58.380 that the
00:36:58.900 Biden
00:36:59.260 Justice
00:36:59.580 Department
00:36:59.980 had no
00:37:00.460 evidence
00:37:00.840 of actual
00:37:01.420 movement
00:37:02.180 of drugs
00:37:02.780 no evidence
00:37:03.940 of any
00:37:04.480 financial
00:37:05.020 transactions
00:37:05.740 this was
00:37:07.560 a simple
00:37:08.200 deal
00:37:08.640 get two
00:37:09.440 convicted
00:37:10.040 drug
00:37:10.480 traffickers
00:37:11.020 both of
00:37:11.540 whom are
00:37:11.840 mass
00:37:12.100 murderers
00:37:12.680 release them
00:37:14.460 permanently
00:37:14.920 from their
00:37:15.440 long prison
00:37:16.060 sentences
00:37:16.560 in return
00:37:17.500 for false
00:37:18.100 testimony
00:37:18.580 against the
00:37:19.720 Honduran 0.89
00:37:20.360 president
00:37:20.920 that's the
00:37:21.760 way the
00:37:22.100 Biden
00:37:22.400 Justice
00:37:22.780 Department
00:37:23.440 rolled
