The StoneZONE with Roger Stone

00:00:00.000 The Stone Zone, on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:00:05.780 You are entering the Stone Zone.

00:00:09.300 We've got a great show for you today.

00:00:11.700 Later on, we're going to be joined by America's General, General Michael Flynn,

00:00:16.120 who served as the Director of Defense Intelligence,

00:00:19.380 the highest-serving military intelligence officer in our government,

00:00:24.240 and later as President Trump's first national security advisor.

00:00:28.500 General Flynn was, of course, viciously smeared and baselessly attacked in the Russian collusion hoax,

00:00:34.660 but through the grace of God, he not only has survived, but he has been fully exonerated.

00:00:40.960 He will join us a little bit later.

00:00:43.000 In the meantime, the deep state has targeted Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

00:00:49.440 National Public Radio reported only days ago that Secretary Hegseth would be leaving the Trump administration.

00:00:58.500 But that turns out to be fake news.

00:01:01.860 In fact, Pete Hegseth isn't going anywhere,

00:01:04.660 and President Donald Trump has full faith in him,

00:01:08.840 continuing to serve as our Secretary of Defense.

00:01:12.580 Let's listen to Pete Hegseth himself address this this past Sunday

00:01:17.080 at the Easter egg hunt at the White House.

00:01:19.740 You know, what a big surprise that a bunch of, a few leakers get fired

00:01:28.040 and suddenly a bunch of hit pieces come out

00:01:29.820 from the same media that peddled the Russia hoax,

00:01:33.700 won't give back their Pulitzers. 0.99

00:01:35.020 They got Pulitzers for a bunch of lies.

00:01:37.300 Pulitzers for a bunch of lies.

00:01:38.740 Pulitzers for a bunch of lies and on hoaxes time and time and time again.

00:01:44.100 And as they peddle those lies, no one ever calls them on it.

00:01:47.120 See, this is what the media does.

00:01:49.300 They take anonymous sources from disgruntled former employees,

00:01:53.360 and then they try to slash and burn people and ruin their reputations.

00:01:57.240 Not going to work with me,

00:01:58.760 because we're changing the Defense Department,

00:02:01.920 putting the Pentagon back in the hands of warfighters,

00:02:03.940 and anonymous smears from disgruntled former employees on old news.

00:02:08.480 Doesn't matter.

00:02:09.180 So I'm happy to be here at the Easter egg roll with my dad and my kids.

00:02:13.300 Because, you know, this is what we're doing it for.

00:02:15.440 These kids right here.

00:02:16.620 This is why we're fighting the fake news media.

00:02:19.540 This is why we're fighting slash and burn Democrats.

00:02:22.000 This is why we're fighting hoaxters.

00:02:24.800 Hoaxters. 0.50

00:02:25.740 This group, no, no, no.

00:02:26.740 This group right here, full of hoaxters,

00:02:28.920 that peddle anonymous sources from leakers with axes to grind,

00:02:33.060 and then you put it all together as if it's some news story.

00:02:38.880 And when we know it, we know exactly what it is.

00:02:41.100 So I'm really proud of what we're doing for the President,

00:02:44.020 fighting hard across the board,

00:02:46.040 and I'm going to go roll some Easter eggs with my kids.

00:02:48.940 Thank you very much.

00:02:50.520 Have spoken to the President,

00:02:53.080 and we are going to continue fighting on the same page all the way.

00:02:59.800 So, very true.

00:03:01.260 Perhaps the real reason why the neocons and their allies in the fake news media

00:03:08.120 are trying to smear Pete Hegseth is because Secretary of Defense Hegseth,

00:03:13.660 along with Vice President J.D. Vance,

00:03:16.520 and the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard,

00:03:19.760 along with the first woman White House Chief of Staff, Susie Wiles,

00:03:24.340 argued successfully with the President against launching an attack on Iran,

00:03:29.920 and perhaps saving us from World War III.

00:03:33.260 The New York Times claimed that Hegseth created a Signal chat in January entitled Defense Team Huddle,

00:03:41.880 which included his wife and other members of his professional inner circle,

00:03:46.320 including some of his top advisors and aides,

00:03:49.160 and used a private phone instead of his government-issued phone to access the Signal chat.

00:03:55.440 Two people familiar with the chat said that the separate Signal group

00:03:59.420 had been created as a way to discuss routine scheduling and administrative information,

00:04:05.320 and Hegseth did not use the chat to discuss any sensitive military operations.

00:04:11.960 One U.S. official told the outlet regarding the chat,

00:04:14.820 the truth is there was an informal group chat that started before confirmation of his close advisors.

00:04:21.540 Absolutely nothing classified was ever discussed in that chat.

00:04:25.960 White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly told Fox News in the wake of the New York Times report,

00:04:31.600 No matter how many times the legacy media tries to resurrect the same non-story,

00:04:38.360 they can't change the fact that no classified information was shared.

00:04:42.860 Recently fired leakers are continuing to misrepresent the truth to soothe their shattered egos

00:04:50.140 and undermine the President's agenda,

00:04:52.880 but the administration will continue to hold them accountable.

00:04:56.040 White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt,

00:05:00.060 she's amazing by the way,

00:05:01.920 said the President stands strongly behind Secretary Hegseth,

00:05:05.680 who's doing a phenomenal job leading the Pentagon.

00:05:10.460 Fake news ABC got caught once again.

00:05:14.040 ABC News yesterday falsely claimed that 18 U.S. intelligence agencies

00:05:20.520 contradicted President Trump's proclamation

00:05:23.080 that there was no coordination between the violent gang Tren de Aragua

00:05:30.600 and the Venezuelan government.

00:05:32.600 I spoke personally to the Director of National Intelligence,

00:05:37.120 Tulsi Gabbard,

00:05:38.960 who told me that this was entirely fake news

00:05:41.980 and, in fact,

00:05:43.260 the intelligence community's assessment was,

00:05:45.960 well,

00:05:46.660 the direct opposite.

00:05:48.700 Attorney General Pam Bondi repeated on Monday

00:05:51.320 that the Alien Enemies Act,

00:05:53.680 which was invoked by the Trump administration

00:05:55.800 because of Tren de Aragua,

00:05:58.460 is a foreign arm of the Venezuelan government.

00:06:01.800 They are organized and they have a command structure

00:06:04.300 and they invaded our country. 0.68

00:06:07.360 President Donald Trump first invoked the act in March,

00:06:11.780 declaring that the violent gang is closely aligned with,

00:06:16.100 indeed has infiltrated,

00:06:17.560 the Maduro regime in Venezuela,

00:06:20.560 including its military and law enforcement apparatus.

00:06:24.780 So the ABC story,

00:06:26.480 which claims that the intelligence community says

00:06:29.460 that Venezuela is not connected to this violent terrorist gang,

00:06:34.040 is 100% false.

00:06:37.480 You see, ABC is not a news organization.

00:06:41.120 It's not even a journalistic enterprise.

00:06:43.540 It's a propaganda front for the Democrats and the radical left.

00:06:49.760 ABC News previously has had to fire its top reporter,

00:06:54.120 Brian Ross,

00:06:54.980 for falsely reporting that my guest tonight,

00:06:58.140 General Michael Flynn,

00:06:59.220 intended to testify that President Trump

00:07:01.720 had directed him to make contact with Russian officials

00:07:05.160 during the 2016 campaign.

00:07:08.180 Yet another lie published and propagated by ABC News.

00:07:13.300 The Venezuelan terrorist gang has not only been designated

00:07:17.020 as an invading force

00:07:19.060 and a foreign terrorist organization

00:07:22.960 by the Trump administration,

00:07:24.700 but it has been treated as such across South America,

00:07:28.460 where nations like Chile and Peru

00:07:31.120 have been prosecuting gang members for crimes,

00:07:34.080 including kidnappings for ransom,

00:07:36.520 drug trafficking,

00:07:37.760 and murder.

00:07:38.960 In the meantime,

00:07:40.800 Treasury Secretary Scott Besson,

00:07:42.840 who I think may be the best Secretary of the Treasury

00:07:46.860 since Alexander Hamilton,

00:07:49.400 made important remarks on the U.S.-China trade war,

00:07:54.520 which caused the U.S. stock market to rise,

00:07:57.240 with the S&P 500 going up almost 3%.

00:08:00.680 The President's partner in this trade war

00:08:03.900 to make America wealthy again

00:08:05.940 is set to speak again tomorrow at 10 a.m.

00:08:09.600 about the ongoing negotiations with China.

00:08:15.640 I am very impressed with Secretary Besant.

00:08:23.100 I feel that he is, without any question,

00:08:26.180 a calming influence on the markets.

00:08:30.460 We are going to be joined very shortly

00:08:32.720 with former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.

00:08:39.880 You certainly don't want to miss that.

00:08:42.700 In another interesting article by the Zero Hedge,

00:08:48.020 we learn that a Bush-era swamp creature,

00:08:54.840 former Secretary,

00:08:56.600 probably former Attorney General John Ashcroft,

00:09:00.580 was actively involved in the cover-up

00:09:03.340 of the Oklahoma City bombing.

00:09:06.800 This story I posted on my X profile.

00:09:12.320 I urge you to take a look at it.

00:09:14.520 In the meantime,

00:09:15.600 Secretary of the Treasury Besant,

00:09:19.700 who I said will speak tomorrow at 10 a.m.,

00:09:23.260 said,

00:09:24.580 the next steps with China are,

00:09:26.440 no one thinks the current status quo is sustainable.

00:09:29.620 He also said,

00:09:30.700 referring to tariff rates at their current levels,

00:09:33.300 while speaking to a private investor summit in Washington.

00:09:37.400 In addition to calling the tariff standoff with China unsustainable,

00:09:42.620 Besant added that he expects the situation to de-escalate.

00:09:47.000 Besant said that he believes the prospect of de-escalation

00:09:50.220 between the economic superpowers,

00:09:53.100 quote,

00:09:53.820 should give the world, the markets, a sigh of relief.

00:09:57.700 Besant also insisted that despite the U.S.

00:10:00.140 ratcheting up tariffs on China imports to 145%,

00:10:04.740 and China retaliating with 125% duties on American goods,

00:10:10.740 the goal of Trump's policy isn't to decouple.

00:10:14.960 The White House Press Secretary, Caroline Levitt,

00:10:18.240 in a news briefing said that the progress is being made on trade deals,

00:10:22.740 and that the ball is moving in the right direction with China.

00:10:25.620 This follows a Politico report that may take months for the U.S.

00:10:30.900 to reach final trade negotiations with certain countries.

00:10:35.180 Besant noted that the negotiations with China are likely to be a slog.

00:10:40.820 I believe the Chinese know that in the end, 0.86

00:10:43.820 they will have no choice but to reach agreement.

00:10:46.300 But in the Chinese culture,

00:10:48.140 saving face is all important.

00:10:50.300 My money is on Secretary Besson,

00:10:53.280 the national trade representative,

00:10:56.200 and on President Donald Trump.

00:10:58.400 Knowing him for 50 years,

00:11:00.420 I must say anyone who thinks you can get him to back down

00:11:04.080 doesn't understand the man.

00:11:06.700 Donald Trump has ice water in his veins.

00:11:09.620 He is tough as nails.

00:11:11.140 This coming from a man 0.65

00:11:12.920 who worked for both President Richard Nixon

00:11:17.760 and Vice President,

00:11:20.660 pardon me, U.S. Senator Bob Dole,

00:11:23.300 both very, very tough guys.

00:11:26.940 I must tell you,

00:11:28.240 neither one of them is nearly as tough

00:11:30.400 as President Donald Trump.

00:11:33.240 Meanwhile, Secretary of State Marco Rubio

00:11:36.220 has shut down a U.S. censorship agency.

00:11:39.860 The Secretary of State has officially ordered

00:11:42.460 the closure of the State Department's

00:11:44.840 Counter-Foreign Intelligence Manipulation

00:11:47.600 and Interference Office

00:11:49.140 and abolished the censorship body

00:11:51.760 known as the Global Engagement Center.

00:11:55.320 This follows a directive from President Donald Trump.

00:11:59.060 This ends a controversial chapter

00:12:01.340 in which Rubio describes as a shameful period

00:12:05.000 of federally sanctioned suppression of free speech.

00:12:08.520 Surely, those in the deep state disagree.

00:12:13.160 The GEC was an enthusiastic participant

00:12:15.960 in the Election Integrity Partnership,

00:12:18.740 an infamous group established

00:12:20.440 under constitutionally questionable conditions

00:12:23.240 to, quote,

00:12:24.580 monitor disinformation about the 2020 election.

00:12:29.900 This was part and parcel, of course,

00:12:31.640 of the declaration by 51 former

00:12:35.760 and current intelligence officers

00:12:37.780 who insisted,

00:12:39.660 despite the keen reporting

00:12:41.540 by the New York Post,

00:12:43.080 that Hunter Biden's laptop,

00:12:45.800 which outlined extensive corruption

00:12:48.420 by members of the Biden crime family,

00:12:51.660 was indeed Russian disinformation.

00:12:55.400 That is false.

00:14:12.140 Joining me now,

00:14:13.200 America's General,

00:14:14.620 General Michael Flynn,

00:14:16.200 who served this country

00:14:17.160 for more than 33 years

00:14:19.320 in the U.S. military,

00:14:22.020 a career which culminated

00:14:24.940 as Director of Defense Intelligence Agency,

00:14:27.840 the nation's highest-serving

00:14:29.660 military intelligence officer,

00:14:31.580 and then went on to serve

00:14:33.060 as President Donald Trump's

00:14:34.580 National Security Advisor.

00:14:37.720 General Flynn was, of course,

00:14:39.340 viciously smeared

00:14:40.420 and baselessly attacked

00:14:42.040 in the Russian collusion oath,

00:14:43.760 but through the grace of God,

00:14:45.420 he not only survived,

00:14:47.060 but he has been completely

00:14:48.300 and totally exonerated.

00:14:49.960 If you have not seen

00:14:51.600 the documentary Flynn,

00:14:53.840 I strongly recommend it to you.

00:14:56.260 You can see it at Amazon Prime

00:14:57.920 or Apple TV.

00:14:59.800 It is the shocking truth

00:15:02.460 about the effort

00:15:03.540 to destroy this great American patriot.

00:15:06.600 Let me say on a personal level

00:15:08.160 that I have met many generals,

00:15:11.340 presidents, senators, governors,

00:15:13.800 and others.

00:15:15.100 But Mike Flynn may be

00:15:16.320 one of the finest patriots,

00:15:17.880 one of the finest Christian gentlemen,

00:15:19.800 and one of the most loyal friends

00:15:22.520 a man can have.

00:15:24.100 General Flynn,

00:15:24.760 welcome in to the Stone Zone.

00:15:27.440 Roger, thank you very much.

00:15:28.860 What a great honor it is to be.

00:15:31.420 I wish you here this evening.

00:15:32.860 I mean, what a time we live in, isn't it?

00:15:35.340 I mean, it's just an amazing historical experience

00:15:39.060 that we're all going through right now.

00:15:41.400 I mean, wow.

00:15:42.880 I mean, did you ever think

00:15:44.000 that your life and your lifetime,

00:15:46.140 with all the things that you've done

00:15:47.340 and all the things that you've been challenged

00:15:48.920 by and with,

00:15:50.800 that we'd ever be living through

00:15:51.860 a time like this?

00:15:53.180 No, and the good news is

00:15:54.700 the globalists are on the run.

00:15:57.080 The forces of freedom

00:15:58.360 are on the ascendancy.

00:16:00.740 And you have been a key leader

00:16:03.120 in this sea change in America.

00:16:06.500 Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth

00:16:08.480 is currently being viciously smeared

00:16:11.040 by fake news NPR

00:16:13.180 with the false claim

00:16:14.160 that he shared classified information.

00:16:17.120 This kind of reminds me

00:16:18.380 of the false reports

00:16:19.860 they used on you

00:16:21.300 to try to take you out

00:16:22.560 of the Trump administration in 2017.

00:16:25.340 General Flynn,

00:16:26.160 what is your reaction?

00:16:28.080 Yeah, I think that what's happening

00:16:29.380 is that they're desperate

00:16:32.460 and they are really on their heels

00:16:34.400 because Trump has made

00:16:36.320 so many strategically smart moves

00:16:39.000 and actually a guy like Pete Hegseth

00:16:41.700 has brought so much energy

00:16:43.340 back into the Department of Defense

00:16:45.020 that was so necessary,

00:16:47.620 not just, you know,

00:16:48.600 in terms of our warfighting prowess,

00:16:50.580 but also just the idea

00:16:52.040 of, you know,

00:16:53.780 everybody kind of, you know,

00:16:55.120 get in there and mix it up

00:16:56.720 and the type of leader

00:16:58.780 that we need right now.

00:17:00.040 And I think what's happened

00:17:01.240 is that the, you know,

00:17:03.060 the left and their minions

00:17:05.140 in the media have really just,

00:17:07.520 they're desperate.

00:17:08.520 They're trying anything to smear.

00:17:11.460 You know, they typically will label,

00:17:13.440 you know, all these kinds of things.

00:17:14.860 And when they do that,

00:17:16.840 what that is very telling of

00:17:19.260 is they're, you know,

00:17:21.340 what they're showing,

00:17:22.980 they're showing their rear ends

00:17:24.620 in a lot of ways

00:17:26.320 by basically attacking

00:17:30.000 and lying and deceiving

00:17:31.820 the American people

00:17:32.520 to distract from

00:17:33.560 what is otherwise

00:17:34.760 a great America First agenda

00:17:36.940 that both Pete Hegseth

00:17:38.540 is carrying out

00:17:39.280 on behalf of the President

00:17:40.080 of the United States

00:17:40.600 as well as Trump.

00:17:42.000 And they're really trying

00:17:42.840 to just distract people.

00:17:45.120 We will be right back

00:17:46.040 with more of General Michael Flynn

00:17:47.600 on the other side,

00:17:48.660 so don't go away.

00:17:51.320 The Stone Zone

00:17:52.620 on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:17:56.320 The Stone Zone,

00:18:01.220 entertaining and informative

00:18:03.000 on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:18:06.740 And we're back in the Stone Zone.

00:18:08.960 We're talking to General Michael Flynn,

00:18:11.960 America's General.

00:18:13.160 General Flynn,

00:18:13.680 we know now definitively

00:18:15.700 that the Russian collusion hoax

00:18:18.000 and the plot to destroy

00:18:20.020 President Donald Trump

00:18:21.220 and his presidency,

00:18:22.460 to destroy you, 0.96

00:18:24.180 to destroy me, 0.60

00:18:25.140 to destroy Paul Manafort,

00:18:27.440 was born in the Oval Office

00:18:29.880 that President Barack Obama

00:18:31.880 was directly involved.

00:18:34.040 Vice President Joe Biden

00:18:35.320 helpfully suggested

00:18:36.380 that you be falsely charged

00:18:38.580 under the Logan Act.

00:18:40.620 National Security Advisor

00:18:42.160 Susan Rice,

00:18:43.540 FBI Director James Comey,

00:18:45.860 and CIA Director John Brennan

00:18:48.160 were all in on this plot.

00:18:50.720 It was the greatest single abuse of power,

00:18:54.240 the greatest dirty trick

00:18:55.660 in American history,

00:18:56.880 in which the full authority

00:18:58.620 of the U.S. government

00:18:59.600 and the extraordinary capabilities

00:19:01.560 of our intelligence agencies

00:19:03.120 were utilized

00:19:04.160 using two completely false assertions

00:19:07.560 that the Steele dossier

00:19:09.260 compromised Donald Trump,

00:19:11.460 it was a fraud,

00:19:12.540 or that the Russians

00:19:13.980 conducted an online hack

00:19:16.400 of the Democrat National Committee,

00:19:18.580 both falsehoods.

00:19:20.260 My question to you is,

00:19:22.300 will anybody be held accountable?

00:19:25.420 Will anybody actually be punished

00:19:28.060 for the greatest dirty trick

00:19:30.080 in American political history?

00:19:32.480 Yeah, and I think that's,

00:19:34.020 you know,

00:19:34.300 that's a $64,000 question, right?

00:19:36.400 I mean,

00:19:37.160 one of the big,

00:19:38.260 one of the big things going on

00:19:40.200 across America right now

00:19:41.520 because of the release

00:19:42.440 of the full,

00:19:44.100 unredacted,

00:19:45.160 you know,

00:19:46.380 files on Russiagate,

00:19:48.440 and I know a number of people

00:19:50.380 that are digging through these

00:19:52.020 as well as tying back

00:19:53.960 into what the Durham report

00:19:56.420 came out with.

00:19:57.280 So there's a lot of data

00:19:58.420 that is being,

00:19:59.900 and dots being connected.

00:20:02.080 So, you know,

00:20:02.700 the answer to the question is,

00:20:04.600 you know,

00:20:05.080 will somebody be,

00:20:06.100 will anybody be held accountable?

00:20:07.820 They have to be held accountable,

00:20:09.780 Roger.

00:20:10.520 This is beyond a dirty trick.

00:20:12.140 It was a conspiracy

00:20:13.080 to undermine

00:20:13.960 a duly elected president,

00:20:15.260 and to do so,

00:20:16.360 they went after,

00:20:17.100 you know,

00:20:17.580 his sort of inner circle

00:20:18.820 and, you know,

00:20:20.060 and his closest friends

00:20:21.420 and advisors

00:20:22.080 and tried to do anything

00:20:24.120 that they could

00:20:24.960 to destroy a president,

00:20:26.860 not to just destroy

00:20:28.000 Donald J. Trump,

00:20:29.360 but to destroy

00:20:30.000 the sitting president

00:20:31.220 of the United States

00:20:32.280 of America.

00:20:33.400 And that's,

00:20:33.960 that is,

00:20:34.800 you know,

00:20:35.020 that's just an incredible

00:20:36.380 criminal act

00:20:38.300 from my perspective.

00:20:39.760 And so I know,

00:20:41.660 I know now

00:20:42.540 that with the release

00:20:44.020 of the files,

00:20:44.860 with the tying back

00:20:46.600 into of what

00:20:48.640 the Durham report

00:20:49.480 came out with,

00:20:50.000 I do think now

00:20:51.180 that the Durham report

00:20:52.220 came out,

00:20:53.380 you know,

00:20:53.640 a while back

00:20:54.420 and with the release

00:20:55.360 of these files,

00:20:56.320 you know,

00:20:56.540 I spent the better part

00:20:57.800 of an hour and a half,

00:20:59.020 probably two hours today

00:21:00.360 with a couple of researchers

00:21:02.260 who are going

00:21:03.880 through this stuff again.

00:21:05.620 And what they're learning,

00:21:06.960 what they're discovering

00:21:07.720 is how far back

00:21:09.000 this thing went.

00:21:10.460 And the,

00:21:10.920 you know,

00:21:11.300 the Democrat Party,

00:21:13.400 knowing that Hillary Clinton

00:21:14.420 was going to be

00:21:14.900 the heir apparent,

00:21:16.240 and of course,

00:21:17.200 Donald J. Trump

00:21:17.920 wins the primaries,

00:21:19.020 gets in,

00:21:19.680 you know,

00:21:19.940 he gets through

00:21:20.700 a great convention

00:21:21.520 in the summer of 2016,

00:21:22.680 and then all of a sudden

00:21:23.920 you roll into,

00:21:25.460 into,

00:21:26.140 you know,

00:21:27.000 now President-elect Trump,

00:21:28.720 and as you just stated,

00:21:29.900 Barack Obama

00:21:30.580 on the 5th of January

00:21:31.640 2017

00:21:32.220 has that cohort

00:21:34.000 of really thugs

00:21:36.360 around him,

00:21:37.100 and,

00:21:37.160 you know,

00:21:37.600 Jim Clapper,

00:21:38.540 Brennan Comey,

00:21:39.920 Susan Rice,

00:21:40.660 Sally Yates

00:21:41.160 was another one

00:21:41.760 in that room,

00:21:42.800 you know,

00:21:43.140 and they decided

00:21:44.320 to basically continue

00:21:46.500 on to try

00:21:47.600 to take down

00:21:48.720 President Trump.

00:21:50.020 I mean,

00:21:50.680 that is just

00:21:51.840 unreal

00:21:52.660 when you think

00:21:53.320 about the type

00:21:53.980 of government

00:21:54.440 that we've always had,

00:21:55.560 the freedoms

00:21:55.920 that we've had,

00:21:56.560 you know,

00:21:57.260 you've been in politics

00:21:58.360 your whole adult life,

00:21:59.840 Roger.

00:22:00.080 I mean,

00:22:00.720 it's always been

00:22:01.280 about debating

00:22:02.340 each other

00:22:02.880 and whether one,

00:22:04.340 you know,

00:22:05.000 side of the aisle,

00:22:06.000 you know,

00:22:06.380 likes big government,

00:22:07.560 the other side

00:22:08.060 likes small government,

00:22:09.100 whatever those issues are,

00:22:10.800 but we never came

00:22:11.620 to this level

00:22:12.400 until Barack Obama

00:22:14.160 arrived down the scene.

00:22:16.080 Now,

00:22:16.380 I don't know

00:22:16.720 whether or not

00:22:17.240 they're going to

00:22:18.140 go after a former

00:22:19.680 President of the United States.

00:22:21.040 They tried to do it

00:22:21.920 with Donald Trump.

00:22:22.820 The left certainly did.

00:22:24.340 So I do think

00:22:25.140 that there's something

00:22:25.700 to be,

00:22:26.560 you know,

00:22:26.740 there's a precedent

00:22:28.220 setting there

00:22:29.240 I mean,

00:22:30.620 you certainly

00:22:32.020 lived through

00:22:32.940 and saw

00:22:33.980 and witnessed

00:22:34.640 to the Watergate

00:22:35.760 conspiracy,

00:22:36.620 right?

00:22:36.860 I mean,

00:22:37.420 this makes Watergate

00:22:39.120 look like child's play.

00:22:40.620 So the answer is

00:22:42.100 that the American people

00:22:44.120 are expecting,

00:22:45.340 they are expecting

00:22:46.320 accountability.

00:22:47.560 And I can tell you,

00:22:48.360 Roger,

00:22:48.580 I am in touch

00:22:49.400 with a lot of people

00:22:50.220 on a daily basis.

00:22:51.940 I have been

00:22:52.300 all over this country

00:22:53.500 in the last,

00:22:54.300 you know,

00:22:54.640 not only in the last few years

00:22:56.540 with you in many cases,

00:22:57.920 but within the last few months

00:23:00.060 and I can tell you,

00:23:01.340 people are expecting

00:23:02.380 to see somebody

00:23:03.940 held accountable

00:23:04.740 and it goes back

00:23:05.700 to Russiagate.

00:23:06.840 It goes back

00:23:07.580 to all the egregious

00:23:08.680 activities

00:23:09.260 that were

00:23:10.320 basically,

00:23:11.540 you know,

00:23:12.220 conspired

00:23:13.060 by these,

00:23:14.300 you know,

00:23:14.700 groups like what

00:23:15.440 we've mentioned

00:23:15.980 and others.

00:23:17.540 You know,

00:23:17.800 McCabe is another one

00:23:18.780 that needs to be

00:23:19.400 brought in there.

00:23:20.760 These people

00:23:21.320 must be held accountable.

00:23:22.480 I hope

00:23:23.420 that Pam Bondi, 0.54

00:23:25.760 you know,

00:23:26.460 working with

00:23:27.080 people like Ed Martin,

00:23:28.660 people like Cash Patel,

00:23:29.920 people like Dan Bongino

00:23:31.040 and others

00:23:31.920 in the administration

00:23:32.840 actually,

00:23:34.080 you know,

00:23:34.900 create some,

00:23:36.580 maybe it's a sequestered

00:23:38.200 grand jury

00:23:38.820 and they start

00:23:39.940 to relook

00:23:40.500 a lot of this stuff

00:23:41.400 because

00:23:41.780 if we don't

00:23:43.180 hold these people

00:23:44.080 accountable,

00:23:44.980 if we don't

00:23:45.300 hold them accountable,

00:23:46.520 they will do it again,

00:23:47.760 Roger,

00:23:48.160 and we all know that.

00:23:49.280 We cannot have that

00:23:50.460 happen in our country

00:23:51.920 again,

00:23:52.480 ever.

00:23:52.900 This can never,

00:23:54.280 never happen again

00:23:55.480 the way this happened

00:23:56.440 and people are going

00:23:58.540 to have to be

00:23:59.060 held accountable.

00:24:00.160 Yeah,

00:24:00.360 I'm in agreement.

00:24:01.700 I think,

00:24:02.660 frankly,

00:24:03.380 that John Durham

00:24:04.320 took five long years

00:24:06.900 basically to tell us

00:24:08.460 what many good,

00:24:10.000 solid,

00:24:10.420 investigative journalists

00:24:11.400 like Lee Smith

00:24:12.160 had already determined.

00:24:14.200 But he took five years

00:24:15.560 to make sure

00:24:16.040 the statute of limitations

00:24:17.200 had run out

00:24:18.160 and then

00:24:18.960 he indicts

00:24:20.080 the guy

00:24:20.580 at the very,

00:24:21.180 very,

00:24:21.620 very bottom

00:24:22.560 of the totem pole

00:24:23.540 a guy named

00:24:24.080 Sussman,

00:24:25.060 a lawyer

00:24:25.620 who was involved

00:24:26.960 in promulgating

00:24:28.020 the Steele dossier.

00:24:29.880 This is like

00:24:30.580 inditing the guy

00:24:32.220 who was driving

00:24:33.140 the getaway car

00:24:34.560 in a bank robbery

00:24:35.460 for double parking

00:24:37.360 while you let

00:24:38.200 the bank robbers

00:24:39.040 get away. 0.73

00:24:40.020 But here's the problem

00:24:40.880 for them.

00:24:42.260 There is no

00:24:42.960 statute of limitations

00:24:44.080 on the crime

00:24:45.440 of treason.

00:24:46.780 At a minimum,

00:24:47.580 John Brennan

00:24:48.760 who I think

00:24:49.660 is really

00:24:50.560 the chief

00:24:51.920 perp here

00:24:53.000 in this operation

00:24:54.080 is guilty

00:24:55.020 of treason

00:24:55.860 and frankly

00:24:56.640 I think he should

00:24:57.400 be charged

00:24:57.980 and he should

00:24:58.900 stand trial.

00:25:00.100 Let me move

00:25:00.900 into this story

00:25:01.700 because it's one

00:25:03.100 that I think

00:25:04.700 you sent me

00:25:05.360 and I found

00:25:05.980 fascinating.

00:25:06.740 a top

00:25:07.720 U.S.

00:25:08.800 neuroscientist

00:25:09.560 and military

00:25:10.760 advisor

00:25:11.420 Mike Beck

00:25:12.200 has confirmed

00:25:13.400 reports

00:25:14.460 that are credible

00:25:15.320 that say

00:25:16.240 directed energy

00:25:17.640 weapon attacks

00:25:18.500 have happened

00:25:19.540 on U.S. soil

00:25:20.560 and have targeted

00:25:21.920 U.S. personnel

00:25:23.120 abroad.

00:25:24.160 What can you

00:25:24.840 tell us

00:25:25.460 about these

00:25:26.480 so-called

00:25:27.000 microwave weapons

00:25:28.720 and do you believe

00:25:30.540 that they haven't

00:25:31.340 been used

00:25:31.920 in this nation?

00:25:34.100 Yeah,

00:25:34.420 so

00:25:34.780 it's a great

00:25:36.100 investigative report

00:25:37.740 done by

00:25:38.280 Catherine Herridge

00:25:39.100 the indomitable

00:25:40.500 Catherine Herridge

00:25:41.400 and she's done

00:25:41.960 a really superb

00:25:42.700 job of digging

00:25:44.320 in and gathering

00:25:45.220 the right facts.

00:25:46.780 Now directed

00:25:47.260 energy weapons

00:25:48.220 I can tell you

00:25:49.780 that off of

00:25:51.280 surface ships

00:25:53.280 right?

00:25:53.920 Naval ships

00:25:54.560 other surface

00:25:55.980 ships that are

00:25:56.740 used at sea

00:25:57.840 to deter

00:25:59.260 you know

00:26:01.260 like piracy

00:26:02.640 you know

00:26:02.960 we still have

00:26:03.420 piracy that occurs

00:26:04.580 off of different

00:26:05.580 coastlines

00:26:06.240 those types

00:26:07.200 of weapons

00:26:07.760 are used

00:26:08.760 to deter

00:26:10.160 those types

00:26:10.960 of attacks

00:26:11.700 against

00:26:12.280 merchant vessels

00:26:13.560 and I

00:26:14.300 you know

00:26:14.620 we know this

00:26:15.400 in fact we

00:26:15.980 saw a lot

00:26:16.940 of this type

00:26:17.440 of use

00:26:17.780 out in

00:26:18.720 off of Somalia

00:26:20.320 during the days

00:26:21.760 when the piracy

00:26:22.600 activities were

00:26:23.740 upwards of

00:26:24.560 you know

00:26:25.240 they had seized

00:26:25.940 almost

00:26:26.360 I think

00:26:27.380 50 or 60

00:26:28.260 different merchant

00:26:28.980 vessels

00:26:29.360 so the

00:26:30.240 merchant

00:26:30.960 marines

00:26:31.940 started to use

00:26:32.720 these directed

00:26:33.200 energy type

00:26:33.940 weapons

00:26:34.320 off of

00:26:34.800 those ships 0.73

00:26:35.420 now

00:26:36.280 and this

00:26:36.880 is back

00:26:37.380 in like

00:26:37.800 2007

00:26:39.440 2008

00:26:40.340 time frame

00:26:41.140 so quite a

00:26:41.660 while ago

00:26:42.180 so now

00:26:43.060 what we're

00:26:43.360 talking about

00:26:43.960 is we're

00:26:44.300 talking about

00:26:44.760 directed

00:26:45.080 energy weapons

00:26:45.820 being used

00:26:46.460 from

00:26:46.880 facilities

00:26:48.040 buildings

00:26:48.620 and such

00:26:49.600 and like

00:26:50.020 the most famous

00:26:51.280 case is the

00:26:51.920 one down

00:26:52.320 in Cuba

00:26:53.780 where a group

00:26:55.040 of diplomats

00:26:55.840 were

00:26:56.260 you know

00:26:57.000 felt affected

00:26:57.920 they were

00:26:58.420 basically

00:26:58.940 you know

00:27:00.400 you know

00:27:00.840 they were

00:27:01.180 they were

00:27:01.920 given like

00:27:02.520 you know

00:27:03.120 where they

00:27:04.340 felt like

00:27:04.740 they had

00:27:05.160 gotten ill

00:27:06.020 and what

00:27:06.900 we're learning

00:27:07.480 is we're

00:27:07.980 learning these

00:27:08.440 directed

00:27:08.760 energy weapons

00:27:09.720 which are

00:27:10.600 very precise

00:27:11.480 laser

00:27:12.600 almost laser

00:27:13.960 like focus

00:27:14.880 against the

00:27:16.040 targeted population

00:27:17.160 or the targeted

00:27:17.860 array of people

00:27:18.600 that they want

00:27:19.100 to go after

00:27:19.600 and in this

00:27:20.520 case

00:27:20.880 what it's

00:27:22.080 showing is

00:27:22.640 it's showing

00:27:23.060 a type of

00:27:23.840 weapon system

00:27:24.540 that you know

00:27:25.760 nobody should be

00:27:26.480 nobody should be

00:27:27.560 surprised that

00:27:28.440 these things

00:27:28.920 exist

00:27:29.340 it is

00:27:30.320 it is in the

00:27:31.380 past I think

00:27:31.960 people thought

00:27:32.480 about these

00:27:32.940 types of

00:27:33.320 things

00:27:33.560 you know

00:27:34.100 only only

00:27:35.240 being seen

00:27:35.900 in science

00:27:36.420 fiction movies

00:27:37.180 when in fact

00:27:38.080 these are very

00:27:38.700 real and they've

00:27:39.420 actually been

00:27:39.880 around for

00:27:40.800 quite a while

00:27:41.500 they have

00:27:41.920 become far

00:27:43.080 more sophisticated

00:27:43.900 because of

00:27:45.320 the ability

00:27:45.860 to be able

00:27:46.340 to move

00:27:46.960 essentially

00:27:47.960 electrons

00:27:48.860 like you would

00:27:49.920 shoot a bullet

00:27:50.480 out of a

00:27:50.980 out of a

00:27:51.440 rifle

00:27:51.760 you're

00:27:52.400 you're

00:27:52.800 you're

00:27:53.180 firing

00:27:53.620 electrons

00:27:54.520 in a

00:27:55.280 very

00:27:55.580 intense

00:27:56.620 and

00:27:57.860 very

00:27:58.460 very

00:27:58.820 directed

00:27:59.460 way

00:27:59.920 like

00:28:00.360 the

00:28:01.000 acronym

00:28:02.200 stands

00:28:02.700 for

00:28:02.900 directed

00:28:03.220 energy

00:28:03.660 weapon

00:28:04.120 almost

00:28:05.700 right

00:28:06.220 directly

00:28:06.840 at an

00:28:07.300 individual

00:28:07.740 and I

00:28:08.440 think

00:28:08.700 what

00:28:08.960 from

00:28:09.960 Catherine's

00:28:11.500 great

00:28:11.920 reporting

00:28:12.400 I think

00:28:12.740 what we're

00:28:13.020 going to

00:28:13.240 find out

00:28:13.740 is that

00:28:14.120 this has

00:28:14.780 been going

00:28:15.120 on for

00:28:15.540 a lot

00:28:15.880 longer

00:28:16.280 and we're

00:28:17.060 seeing it

00:28:17.660 happening

00:28:18.280 you know

00:28:19.160 in and

00:28:19.800 around

00:28:20.180 a lot

00:28:20.660 of

00:28:20.780 embassies

00:28:21.300 around

00:28:21.620 the world

00:28:22.060 a lot

00:28:22.400 of US

00:28:22.720 embassies

00:28:23.120 around

00:28:23.340 the world

00:28:23.640 I believe

00:28:25.040 I believe

00:28:25.640 this is

00:28:26.080 something

00:28:26.380 that

00:28:26.760 the

00:28:27.960 Department

00:28:29.060 of Defense

00:28:29.600 the Department

00:28:30.080 of Energy

00:28:30.560 are going

00:28:30.920 to have

00:28:31.140 to come

00:28:31.440 to grips

00:28:31.800 with

00:28:32.060 and

00:28:32.840 they

00:28:33.460 can't

00:28:34.220 hide

00:28:34.540 this

00:28:34.800 anymore

00:28:35.160 what we're

00:28:35.580 going to

00:28:35.740 have to

00:28:36.020 do

00:28:36.180 is to

00:28:37.220 really

00:28:37.520 highlight

00:28:38.360 this

00:28:38.800 to

00:28:39.220 the right

00:28:41.580 people

00:28:42.560 we still

00:28:43.280 have to

00:28:43.540 protect

00:28:43.900 the

00:28:44.160 capabilities

00:28:44.780 that we

00:28:45.300 have

00:28:45.620 but I

00:28:46.220 do

00:28:46.380 believe

00:28:46.740 that the

00:28:47.120 American

00:28:47.380 people

00:28:47.700 are going

00:28:47.960 to be

00:28:48.200 demanding

00:28:48.580 more

00:28:48.900 answers

00:28:49.300 on this

00:28:50.140 especially

00:28:50.540 because of

00:28:51.000 this report

00:28:51.500 that just

00:28:51.820 came out

00:28:52.280 the Fox

00:28:54.120 commentator

00:28:54.880 Mark Levin

00:28:55.660 who also

00:28:56.240 has a show

00:28:57.160 on this

00:28:57.740 very network

00:28:58.640 writes

00:28:59.880 we are looking

00:29:00.660 terrorists in the eye

00:29:01.720 who have

00:29:02.140 threatening tens of millions

00:29:03.600 of us with death

00:29:04.640 as they are developing

00:29:06.080 nuclear weapons

00:29:07.280 and are within

00:29:08.800 weeks of succeeding

00:29:09.820 is there any

00:29:11.220 generation of

00:29:12.020 Americans before us 0.66

00:29:13.140 that would not have

00:29:14.400 dealt a deadly

00:29:15.720 blow to such an enemy

00:29:17.020 before they could

00:29:18.220 destroy us

00:29:19.080 will we be the first

00:29:20.760 it's not as if

00:29:22.420 this is the

00:29:23.000 imagination

00:29:23.660 of war

00:29:24.380 mongers 1.00

00:29:24.840 run amok

00:29:25.540 how insane

00:29:26.740 are those

00:29:27.440 who demand

00:29:28.020 that we

00:29:28.340 essentially

00:29:28.840 ignore this

00:29:29.920 threat

00:29:30.260 or appease

00:29:31.180 it in some

00:29:31.860 fashion

00:29:32.300 clearly

00:29:33.160 Mark Levin

00:29:34.000 who I like

00:29:34.760 is advocating

00:29:36.200 strikes

00:29:37.480 on Iran

00:29:38.400 I personally

00:29:39.800 think that

00:29:40.280 that would be

00:29:40.780 an egregious

00:29:41.580 mistake

00:29:42.060 how do you

00:29:42.960 feel about

00:29:43.720 a preemptive

00:29:44.500 strike

00:29:44.920 on Iran

00:29:45.720 yeah I

00:29:47.580 think what

00:29:47.980 we should

00:29:48.960 be doing

00:29:49.580 and we

00:29:50.580 have a great

00:29:51.000 commander

00:29:51.380 down there

00:29:51.900 at US

00:29:52.560 Central Command

00:29:53.380 who is

00:29:53.720 responsible

00:29:54.200 for the

00:29:54.760 area of

00:29:56.080 responsibility

00:29:56.660 out there

00:29:57.180 from a

00:29:57.520 military

00:29:57.920 perspective

00:29:58.560 you know

00:29:58.840 from a

00:29:59.140 uniform

00:29:59.420 military

00:29:59.860 perspective

00:30:00.340 I think

00:30:00.700 I think

00:30:01.560 Pete

00:30:02.480 Hagseth

00:30:03.040 and the

00:30:03.800 team

00:30:04.260 that

00:30:05.580 Donald J

00:30:06.460 Trump

00:30:06.760 has

00:30:07.120 in the

00:30:07.360 White

00:30:07.560 House

00:30:07.820 is a

00:30:08.240 smart

00:30:08.900 group

00:30:09.220 of

00:30:09.380 people

00:30:09.640 so how

00:30:10.380 do I

00:30:10.680 feel

00:30:10.940 about

00:30:11.180 it

00:30:11.340 I

00:30:11.820 do

00:30:12.020 not

00:30:12.280 think

00:30:12.580 that

00:30:12.720 the

00:30:12.840 United

00:30:13.080 States

00:30:13.400 of

00:30:13.560 America

00:30:13.880 should

00:30:14.120 be

00:30:14.300 engaging

00:30:14.820 in

00:30:15.600 any

00:30:15.820 kind

00:30:16.060 of

00:30:16.200 direct

00:30:16.560 military

00:30:17.040 actions

00:30:17.580 against

00:30:18.080 Iran

00:30:18.680 right

00:30:18.960 now

00:30:19.260 what I

00:30:19.940 do

00:30:20.140 believe

00:30:20.460 is we

00:30:20.760 should

00:30:20.960 have

00:30:21.320 sufficient

00:30:22.280 military

00:30:23.240 capabilities

00:30:24.340 in the

00:30:24.820 theater

00:30:25.120 in the

00:30:25.460 region

00:30:25.780 there

00:30:26.080 whether

00:30:26.680 it's

00:30:26.940 from

00:30:27.160 Diego

00:30:27.500 Garcia

00:30:27.940 or

00:30:28.640 parts

00:30:29.520 of

00:30:29.740 the

00:30:29.900 Middle 0.95

00:30:30.100 East

00:30:30.460 I

00:30:31.680 do

00:30:31.940 believe

00:30:32.360 that

00:30:32.800 the

00:30:33.460 Israelis

00:30:34.500 as

00:30:36.520 a

00:30:36.840 conduit

00:30:37.880 if you

00:30:38.180 will

00:30:38.520 you know

00:30:39.320 they're

00:30:39.720 already

00:30:40.100 you have

00:30:40.880 to believe

00:30:41.260 that they're

00:30:41.660 already

00:30:41.980 contemplating

00:30:42.840 some

00:30:43.140 of these

00:30:43.500 actions

00:30:44.860 and what

00:30:45.600 they should

00:30:46.080 do

00:30:46.620 or what

00:30:47.360 they should

00:30:47.760 feel

00:30:48.360 they should

00:30:49.220 feel

00:30:49.480 very

00:30:50.060 very much

00:30:52.260 supported by

00:30:53.000 the United

00:30:53.380 States of

00:30:53.820 America

00:30:54.240 for the

00:30:54.980 types of

00:30:55.420 tools

00:30:55.820 capabilities

00:30:56.520 weapon

00:30:56.820 systems

00:30:57.160 that they

00:30:57.540 will need

00:30:58.080 if in

00:30:58.740 fact they

00:30:59.120 decide to

00:30:59.620 do that

00:31:00.020 now I

00:31:00.680 will tell

00:31:01.060 you that

00:31:01.420 over 10

00:31:02.620 years ago

00:31:03.240 Roger

00:31:03.620 over 10

00:31:04.200 years ago

00:31:04.720 and it was

00:31:05.080 Barack Obama

00:31:05.900 that said

00:31:06.480 you know

00:31:07.280 and I

00:31:08.140 think John

00:31:08.660 Kerry as

00:31:09.280 well when he

00:31:09.680 was Secretary

00:31:10.240 of State

00:31:10.900 where they

00:31:11.640 said well

00:31:12.200 you know

00:31:12.540 Iran's not 1.00

00:31:13.280 going to

00:31:13.500 have a

00:31:13.840 they won't

00:31:14.540 have a

00:31:14.820 nuclear

00:31:15.120 weapon for

00:31:15.680 another 10

00:31:16.280 years

00:31:16.500 well here

00:31:16.940 we are

00:31:17.260 we're

00:31:17.380 more than

00:31:17.780 10

00:31:18.360 the ability

00:31:19.520 to enrich

00:31:20.160 uranium up

00:31:21.080 to a

00:31:21.380 certain

00:31:21.620 percentage

00:31:22.180 threshold

00:31:23.040 which they've

00:31:23.560 already done

00:31:24.320 so we

00:31:25.140 can't kid

00:31:25.680 ourselves

00:31:26.100 any longer

00:31:26.700 and think

00:31:27.160 that you

00:31:28.140 know the

00:31:28.700 alliance of

00:31:30.140 Iran which 0.80

00:31:31.140 is allied

00:31:31.740 with China

00:31:32.960 Pakistan

00:31:33.820 Russia

00:31:35.000 North Korea

00:31:36.180 those previous

00:31:37.360 four nations

00:31:38.080 that I just

00:31:38.600 mentioned all

00:31:39.640 have nuclear

00:31:40.260 capabilities and

00:31:41.540 then sit and

00:31:42.340 believe that Iran 0.99

00:31:43.400 does not have a

00:31:44.280 nuclear capability

00:31:45.360 one of the

00:31:46.140 things that

00:31:46.640 Iran has 0.98

00:31:47.640 is a very

00:31:48.080 sophisticated

00:31:48.680 missile system

00:31:50.520 capability

00:31:51.220 very sophisticated

00:31:52.360 you know

00:31:53.300 and then all

00:31:54.000 you have to

00:31:54.460 do is build

00:31:55.980 the uranium

00:31:56.600 up enough

00:31:57.180 for the

00:31:57.480 warhead

00:31:57.940 and then

00:31:58.520 match your

00:31:58.960 warhead to

00:31:59.640 a basically

00:32:00.680 you know

00:32:01.560 a rocket

00:32:02.120 right

00:32:02.520 and for them

00:32:04.040 to do that

00:32:04.660 you know

00:32:05.020 is not

00:32:05.540 something that

00:32:06.060 this is not

00:32:06.720 a no-brainer

00:32:07.440 for them

00:32:07.940 I mean

00:32:08.180 or it is

00:32:08.620 a no-brainer

00:32:09.100 for them

00:32:09.500 because they've

00:32:10.220 been doing

00:32:10.540 the missile

00:32:11.000 technology

00:32:11.620 for decades

00:32:12.840 so I think

00:32:14.720 what we're

00:32:15.060 going to see

00:32:15.560 is we're

00:32:15.880 going to see

00:32:16.200 a build-up

00:32:16.660 of U.S.

00:32:17.260 military forces

00:32:18.020 in support

00:32:18.620 of a

00:32:19.380 potential

00:32:20.120 deterrence

00:32:21.320 effect

00:32:21.960 meaning to

00:32:22.860 try to

00:32:23.920 stop

00:32:24.400 Iran

00:32:25.160 from doing

00:32:25.600 what they're

00:32:25.900 doing

00:32:26.060 while

00:32:26.360 President

00:32:27.100 Trump

00:32:27.540 through

00:32:27.940 his

00:32:28.560 emissary

00:32:29.020 Whitcoff

00:32:29.560 is doing

00:32:30.000 some

00:32:30.240 negotiations

00:32:30.980 all while

00:32:32.300 Israel

00:32:33.400 is preparing

00:32:34.800 to take

00:32:36.120 some type

00:32:36.640 of action

00:32:37.140 and now

00:32:37.840 it'll be

00:32:38.180 on their

00:32:38.520 time

00:32:38.880 on their

00:32:39.200 schedule

00:32:39.660 so there's

00:32:40.520 an element

00:32:40.920 of surprise

00:32:41.660 there

00:32:41.980 and I

00:32:42.720 will tell

00:32:43.380 you that

00:32:43.700 if the

00:32:45.360 Israelis

00:32:45.800 decide to

00:32:46.500 attack

00:32:46.980 Tehran

00:32:48.720 or decide

00:32:49.320 to attack

00:32:49.820 other

00:32:50.180 targets

00:32:51.000 in Iran

00:32:51.980 it is

00:32:53.000 going to

00:32:53.960 be unlike

00:32:54.440 any other

00:32:55.160 attack

00:32:55.540 we've seen

00:32:56.160 by the

00:32:56.940 Israelis

00:32:57.360 in Iran

00:32:59.380 or like

00:33:00.500 we've seen

00:33:00.940 in the past

00:33:01.520 where they

00:33:01.820 attacked

00:33:02.280 places in

00:33:03.980 Syria

00:33:04.700 and places

00:33:05.380 in Iraq

00:33:06.140 so I

00:33:07.960 don't think

00:33:08.480 we should

00:33:08.900 be involved

00:33:09.520 in this

00:33:10.100 other than

00:33:10.620 the provision

00:33:11.480 of support

00:33:12.860 and capabilities

00:33:13.760 because

00:33:14.200 Israel is

00:33:15.220 a great

00:33:15.600 ally of

00:33:16.180 ours

00:33:16.460 Iran

00:33:17.400 is one

00:33:18.280 of those

00:33:18.540 places

00:33:18.960 where

00:33:19.280 I would

00:33:20.180 prefer

00:33:20.620 to

00:33:21.800 foment

00:33:23.920 some type

00:33:24.480 of unrest

00:33:25.100 and I do

00:33:26.040 think that

00:33:26.480 the Iranians

00:33:28.160 right now

00:33:28.580 are on

00:33:29.020 their heels 0.83

00:33:29.560 I really

00:33:30.040 believe

00:33:30.360 they're on

00:33:30.620 their heels 0.83

00:33:30.960 because

00:33:31.360 their surrogates

00:33:32.600 in the

00:33:32.860 Hezbollah

00:33:33.340 Hamas 0.96

00:33:33.880 the Houthis

00:33:34.380 have been

00:33:35.140 devastated

00:33:35.860 most recently

00:33:38.220 the Houthis

00:33:39.360 have been

00:33:39.640 devastated

00:33:40.080 by our

00:33:40.480 own

00:33:40.700 Department

00:33:41.500 of Defense

00:33:42.040 so

00:33:42.540 the Iranians

00:33:43.860 are clearly

00:33:44.540 on their

00:33:44.940 backsides

00:33:46.120 and

00:33:47.080 what we

00:33:48.760 don't want

00:33:49.140 to do

00:33:49.340 is put

00:33:49.620 them in

00:33:49.800 a position

00:33:50.240 where they

00:33:50.680 have to

00:33:51.580 spring out

00:33:52.660 and start

00:33:53.280 using

00:33:53.520 some of

00:33:54.220 their missile

00:33:54.560 capabilities

00:33:55.140 and potential

00:33:55.820 nuclear capabilities

00:33:57.300 in the region

00:33:57.980 so I do

00:33:58.800 think that

00:33:59.180 we're on

00:33:59.520 a real

00:34:00.300 edge here

00:34:02.020 and I do

00:34:02.940 know right

00:34:03.500 now that

00:34:03.960 our capabilities

00:34:04.700 in the region

00:34:05.460 are at a

00:34:06.600 level that

00:34:06.960 we have

00:34:07.260 not seen

00:34:07.820 probably

00:34:08.240 in the

00:34:08.540 last

00:34:08.840 five years

00:34:10.400 maybe ten

00:34:10.900 years

00:34:11.140 especially

00:34:12.000 some of

00:34:12.440 our

00:34:12.640 larger

00:34:13.540 air

00:34:14.800 and naval

00:34:15.940 force

00:34:16.340 capabilities

00:34:17.000 that are

00:34:17.320 out there

00:34:17.640 so very

00:34:18.940 tense time

00:34:19.760 I do not

00:34:20.880 believe

00:34:21.160 and I don't

00:34:21.520 think Trump

00:34:21.960 wants to

00:34:22.420 be involved

00:34:23.340 in any

00:34:23.700 kind of

00:34:24.140 war there

00:34:24.700 I think

00:34:25.140 he would

00:34:25.440 definitely

00:34:25.840 like to

00:34:26.760 settle this

00:34:27.200 thing

00:34:27.400 diplomatically

00:34:28.140 and we

00:34:28.940 should be

00:34:29.340 able to

00:34:29.660 do it

00:34:29.960 I do

00:34:30.560 think that

00:34:31.140 at some

00:34:31.560 point in

00:34:32.000 time

00:34:32.320 the only

00:34:32.900 way for

00:34:33.400 Iran

00:34:35.180 Tehran

00:34:35.920 to survive

00:34:37.300 in the

00:34:38.800 global

00:34:39.480 nation

00:34:40.020 of nations

00:34:40.580 is to

00:34:41.540 have some

00:34:41.960 type of

00:34:42.340 regime

00:34:42.740 change

00:34:43.140 they've

00:34:44.260 been living

00:34:44.560 under a

00:34:45.300 dictatorship

00:34:45.780 for far

00:34:46.540 too long

00:34:47.140 up next

00:34:48.640 it's

00:34:49.000 keeping

00:34:49.480 the live

00:34:50.200 and alive

00:34:50.820 with

00:34:54.660 but before

00:34:56.100 that we'll

00:34:56.580 be back

00:34:57.020 with General

00:34:57.620 Michael Flynn

00:34:58.240 so whatever

00:34:58.700 you do

00:34:59.160 don't touch

00:35:00.040 that dial

00:35:00.780 And we're

00:35:14.900 back with

00:35:15.760 General Michael

00:35:16.700 Flynn

00:35:17.120 we've got

00:35:17.780 about three

00:35:18.340 minutes

00:35:18.660 there's never

00:35:19.300 enough time

00:35:20.120 when I

00:35:20.820 interview

00:35:21.260 General Flynn

00:35:21.820 General Flynn

00:35:22.340 you are a

00:35:23.080 student of

00:35:23.980 history

00:35:24.360 a geopolitical

00:35:25.560 thinker

00:35:26.160 what moment

00:35:27.800 in our

00:35:28.300 nation's

00:35:28.800 history

00:35:29.160 most accurately

00:35:30.600 mirrors this

00:35:31.700 very moment

00:35:32.500 in time

00:35:33.480 Wow

00:35:35.400 you know

00:35:36.580 I'll tell you

00:35:37.180 I've thought

00:35:38.260 a lot about

00:35:38.840 that

00:35:39.220 you know

00:35:39.580 we are

00:35:40.220 it's

00:35:41.080 different

00:35:41.780 physical

00:35:42.920 environment

00:35:43.580 but we are

00:35:44.440 in one of

00:35:44.860 those periods

00:35:45.520 where similar

00:35:46.580 to the beginning

00:35:47.440 of the Civil

00:35:48.040 War

00:35:48.320 the U.S.

00:35:48.860 Civil War

00:35:49.320 where we

00:35:50.520 were in a

00:35:51.080 physical

00:35:51.740 you know

00:35:53.000 war

00:35:53.580 between

00:35:54.160 you know

00:35:54.600 a very

00:35:55.040 divided

00:35:55.540 nation

00:35:56.120 and we

00:35:57.100 are right

00:35:57.580 now in a

00:35:58.260 in a

00:35:58.700 cognitive

00:35:59.180 war

00:35:59.640 as much

00:36:00.140 as a

00:36:00.520 spiritual

00:36:00.960 war

00:36:01.500 with a

00:36:02.080 very

00:36:02.320 divided

00:36:02.780 nation

00:36:03.300 and I

00:36:04.340 think

00:36:04.620 that

00:36:04.860 the

00:36:05.120 you know

00:36:05.900 at that

00:36:06.460 time

00:36:06.860 in the

00:36:07.240 at the

00:36:07.580 beginning

00:36:07.820 of the

00:36:08.140 Civil War

00:36:08.700 you know

00:36:09.420 the numbers

00:36:10.040 you know

00:36:10.520 that you

00:36:11.180 when you start

00:36:11.680 to do

00:36:12.020 comparative

00:36:12.580 figure in

00:36:13.260 and data

00:36:14.940 analytics

00:36:15.460 you know

00:36:16.400 the North

00:36:17.300 clearly had

00:36:18.120 a larger

00:36:18.720 footprint

00:36:19.360 and they

00:36:19.940 were able

00:36:20.220 to of course

00:36:20.680 dominate the

00:36:21.400 war at the

00:36:22.240 end of the

00:36:22.620 day

00:36:22.880 we are in a

00:36:24.080 place now

00:36:24.640 where I

00:36:25.120 think that

00:36:25.480 there is a

00:36:26.020 larger

00:36:26.420 percentage of

00:36:27.520 people

00:36:27.880 more than

00:36:28.460 we know

00:36:28.940 that are

00:36:29.600 actually very

00:36:30.240 patriotic

00:36:30.820 people

00:36:31.120 love the

00:36:31.580 country

00:36:31.960 and don't

00:36:32.900 like what

00:36:33.320 they see

00:36:33.820 coming from

00:36:34.520 this very

00:36:35.180 progressive

00:36:35.760 you know

00:36:36.580 communist

00:36:36.980 socialist

00:36:37.520 left

00:36:38.020 of our

00:36:38.440 that is

00:36:39.340 part of

00:36:39.740 our

00:36:39.880 fabric

00:36:40.220 of our

00:36:40.580 country

00:36:41.020 and so

00:36:41.780 what I

00:36:42.720 want

00:36:43.440 and what

00:36:43.900 I believe

00:36:44.620 is that

00:36:45.020 we will

00:36:45.340 dominate

00:36:45.840 this

00:36:46.260 because

00:36:46.700 people's

00:36:47.780 patriotism

00:36:48.580 people's

00:36:49.160 desire

00:36:49.520 for freedom

00:36:50.160 will overcome

00:36:51.440 this inertia

00:36:52.920 that does

00:36:53.560 come out

00:36:54.020 of a

00:36:54.400 couple

00:36:54.640 of

00:36:54.900 segments

00:36:55.600 of

00:36:55.820 society

00:36:56.320 mainly

00:36:56.700 some

00:36:57.340 of

00:36:57.480 our

00:36:57.700 you know

00:36:58.120 clearly

00:36:58.400 the

00:36:58.660 media

00:36:59.000 you know

00:36:59.760 some

00:37:00.100 of

00:37:00.260 the

00:37:00.420 political

00:37:01.380 institution

00:37:02.040 on the

00:37:02.380 left

00:37:02.600 and some

00:37:03.240 other

00:37:03.460 institutions

00:37:04.000 like

00:37:04.320 academia

00:37:04.920 as an

00:37:05.320 example

00:37:05.720 I believe

00:37:07.780 if we were

00:37:08.520 going to do

00:37:08.900 some type

00:37:09.340 of

00:37:09.560 comparative

00:37:10.440 thing

00:37:10.920 to me

00:37:11.760 the Civil

00:37:12.640 War

00:37:12.800 was a

00:37:13.160 far more

00:37:13.740 physical

00:37:14.120 one

00:37:14.480 this one

00:37:14.940 is more

00:37:15.420 cognitive

00:37:16.340 intellectual

00:37:17.140 mental

00:37:18.120 emotional

00:37:18.980 and certainly

00:37:19.760 spiritual

00:37:20.420 and I

00:37:20.860 to finish

00:37:22.340 this line

00:37:23.060 of thinking

00:37:23.660 I do

00:37:24.580 believe

00:37:24.960 that we

00:37:25.380 are going

00:37:25.800 to have

00:37:26.200 to return

00:37:26.920 our

00:37:27.360 country

00:37:27.740 to a

00:37:28.200 much

00:37:28.580 much

00:37:28.880 stronger

00:37:29.320 set

00:37:29.980 of

00:37:30.200 Judeo-Christian

00:37:31.000 principles

00:37:31.620 and values

00:37:32.360 Roger

00:37:33.100 and we

00:37:33.600 must be

00:37:34.100 fearless

00:37:34.480 about those

00:37:35.120 values

00:37:35.580 I completely

00:37:36.680 agree

00:37:37.060 I think

00:37:37.460 it was

00:37:37.740 Lincoln

00:37:38.000 said

00:37:38.460 it's not

00:37:39.200 a question

00:37:39.620 whether

00:37:39.880 God

00:37:40.220 is on

00:37:40.620 our

00:37:40.860 side

00:37:41.240 but

00:37:41.720 whether

00:37:42.020 we

00:37:42.340 are

00:37:42.540 on

00:37:42.920 God's

00:37:43.440 side

00:37:43.680 I want
