Trump's Middle East breakthrough will create a golden age of peace and prosperity, unless, of course, Republicans and Democrats, working together, mess it up. For the past several days, President Trump has been greeted with open arms in the Arab world. This is, in my view, the Great Trump Reset, the end of a neocon domination of our foreign policy, which pursued endless foreign war where our inherent national interest was never clear, erosion of our civil liberties, and massive, massive debt.
00:06:31.000Our weaker allies often attempt to get us to conduct their wars.
00:06:35.580Our wars, while we assist allies, American soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines,
00:06:41.940should not and cannot be sacrificed for the territorial expansions that serve no vital strategic interest.
00:06:50.360I don't believe we should sacrifice American lives on foreign soil while American soil thirsts for our attention.
00:06:57.140We should not trade America's prosperity for another state's regional hegemony while American prosperity continues to deteriorate.
00:07:06.240We must not abandon America's Democrat principles for imperial ambition.
00:07:11.840And while those principles are our best hope for justice, we cannot allow them to fade for lack of attention.
00:07:19.080The true strength of America has never been measured by regimes toppled, but by our lives improved.
00:07:25.260As Colonel McGregor said, while we secure the borders of other people's states, our communities are crumbling while we send billions abroad.
00:07:34.080Americans must not choose between medicine or food.
00:08:49.820Generations of Americans will look back and determine whether we made the right decision or not.
00:08:55.880In the meantime, it is absolutely clear that John Brennan has freaked out over the fact that the director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, fired two deep state officials.
00:09:10.300The Gabbard fired top officials leading the National Intelligence Council because whistleblowers described them as radically opposed to Trump and has moved that agency right over to her office,
00:09:23.160the office of the director of national intelligence.
00:09:26.520Gabbard, as I reported yesterday, fired Mike Collins, who was serving as the acting chair of the National Intelligence Council,
00:09:33.040who was deliberately undermining incoming Trump administration policy, as well as his top deputy.
00:09:39.700But John Brennan, the former CIA director, the the chief orchestrator of the Russian collusion hoax, said that he was livid.
00:09:52.440It's appalling and outrageous and demonstrates why Tulsi Gabbard never should have been confirmed as director of national intelligence.
00:10:00.000Michael Collins and Marie Langen Rykoff are two of the most experienced, accomplished and talented analysts in the entire U.S. intelligence community.
00:10:09.800With over 60 years of combined experience, they have worked for successive administrations since the 1990s.
00:10:17.820They have demonstrated time and time again their capabilities, their competence, their integrity, and they have served as role models for a generation of intelligence officers inside of CIA.
00:10:29.040They're CIA officers by background and by training.
00:10:31.360And this is going to have real reverberations within the workforce because, as Congressman Hines pointed out, it's clearly a signal to tell analysts throughout the intelligence community, you tell the truth.
00:10:43.340You provide objective analysis as you're supposed to be doing.
00:10:46.420You are running the risk of getting fired.
00:10:48.560And Michael and Maria are really the quintessential analysts that you want to have providing insight and information and analysis to policymakers so they make the right decisions for U.S. policymakers.
00:11:02.400But this is a very tangible example of such dangerous and insidious corruption within the Trump administration.
00:11:10.440What's appalling and courageous is how John Brennan conducted himself at the CIA.
00:11:16.080Brennan, first of all, safely set up two dozen Trump advisors without any probable cause for surveillance by the U.S. intelligence apparatus.
00:11:27.380He also colluded with foreign intelligence to conduct illicit, politically-moded spying operations in violation of the U.S. Constitution.
00:11:36.340It was Brennan who was instrumental in the illegal FISA warrants, and wiretaps were deployed in the lead-up to the 2016 presidential election while targeting Trump's most vocal supporters, myself included.
00:11:49.240A U.S. court found in 2023 that the misuse of the FISA courts extended far beyond the mere targeting of Trump actors, citing the FBI found the mechanism had been used to improperly spy over 300,000 times on American citizens without proper warrants.
00:12:07.860This confirms the worst fears of civil libertarians.
00:12:11.260The Durham report proved demonstrable evidence that it was Brennan who first cooked up the Russian collusion hoax with President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden.
00:12:23.360He knew that the Steele dossier was a fraud.
00:12:27.460He knew that it had been discredited, but he used it nonetheless as the rationale for an illegal,
00:12:33.280illicit, and unconstitutional plot to frame Donald Trump as a puppet of the Russian President Vladimir Putin.
00:12:42.800Brennan used this foreign disinformation to set up Russiagate and that frame job against the president.
00:12:49.460This is the same John Brennan who funneled arms and money into the hands of the ISIS militants as they wreaked havoc across the Middle East and Europe.
00:12:57.840Brennan is an admitted communist who said publicly that he voted for the Communist Party candidate in the 1990s.
00:13:04.900It was Brennan who approved the visas of four of the 11 hijackers who attacked America on 9-11 when he was the station chief in RIDA.
00:13:13.640And then there's the question of his own conversion to radical Wahhabism when he was the CIA station chief,
00:13:21.020as attested to by John Guandolo, the counterterrorism CIA agent.
00:13:28.460Brennan was aware the Steele dossier was a fraud.
00:13:31.180He's engaged in what I think is traitorous activity.
00:13:34.200His claim that the Russians hacked the Democrat national computer servers is yet another lie for which he has no proof.
00:14:59.180We're talking about former CIA Director John Brennan.
00:15:03.420He has now finally had his national security clearance lifted.
00:15:09.180Brennan was involved in the electoral interference and the censorship programs that helped screw Donald Trump out of his rightful re-election in 2020.
00:15:16.860In fact, he was one of the 51 former intelligence officials who penned a letter proclaiming the contents of Hunter Biden's laptop as Russian disinformation and propaganda, which we now know to be completely and totally false.
00:15:32.200And then it was Brennan and his cohorts who strong armed the social media companies to keep this legitimate story regarding Hunter Biden's laptop from the American people.
00:15:47.420Polls actually showed that 17% of voters would not have voted for Joe Biden had they known that the laptop was real.
00:15:56.700Everything I know about Hunter Biden's laptop, I read in the New York Post, who accurately called this entire scandal spies who lie.
00:16:06.880So rather than attacking Tulsi Gabbard, perhaps the Justice Department could be looking at the illegal activities of John Brennan and others, because someone should be held accountable for the improper actions and politicization of intelligence.
00:16:24.460It takes time to weed them out and fire them.
00:16:27.760Tulsi Gabbard, precisely the right woman for this job.
00:16:42.700We're going to jam in as many of your questions today as we possibly can.
00:16:47.840Also going to touch on the fact that President Trump has come out against the birthright citizenship, which he is challenging in the Supreme Court.
00:16:57.700Talk about that on the other side as well.
00:17:00.340So once again, if you want, if you have a question, go to Ask Stone at StoneZone.com.
00:17:06.800We're going to take as many as of your questions as we possibly can.
00:17:10.240We appreciate your tuning in to the show every single day where we talk news, politics, sports, history, style, food, food part.
00:17:21.480I really like that right here in the zone.
00:17:55.960We're going to give you a few minutes to get your questions in.
00:17:59.180In the meantime, the Supreme Court met today to hear arguments on the White House's emergency request to stop nationwide injunction that has been put in place against birthright citizenship and Donald Trump's executive order ending same.
00:18:12.640Hours after taking office, President Trump had signed an executive order ending birthright citizenship, that is, giving children born in the U.S. the immediate right to citizenship even when their parents are not U.S. citizens.
00:18:26.960This order was intended to stop women from entering the United States illegally and giving birth to what are called anchor babies, whose citizenship is then used for their own benefit.
00:18:38.500It was immediately challenged, of course, by left-wing organizations and now has found its way to the U.S. Supreme Court, which currently is hearing arguments from both sides.
00:18:48.760President Trump asked the Supreme Court to stay this nationwide injunction issued by the federal judges.
00:18:55.180Trump released a statement on True Social this morning, slamming the abuses of the loophole in this law, specifically regarding anchor babies.
00:19:03.940Big case today in the United States Supreme Court, said Trump.
00:19:06.840Birthright citizenship was not meant for people taking vacations to become permanent citizens of the United States and bringing their families with them, all the time laughing at the suckers that we have been.
00:19:21.360The United States is the only country in the world that does this, and for that reason, which nobody knows, but the drug cartels love it.
00:19:29.260We are, for the first, for the sake of being politically correct, a stupid country if we continue to do this, but in actuality, this is the exact opposite of being politically correct.
00:19:40.740And yet another point that needs to the dysfunction of America.
00:19:45.140Birthright citizenship is about the babies of slaves.
00:19:49.120As conclusive proof, the Civil War ended in 1865.
00:19:52.960The bill went to Congress less than a year later in 1866 and was passed shortly after that.
00:19:58.500It had nothing to do with illegal immigration for people wanting to scam our country from all parts of the world, which, of course, they have done.
00:20:07.800It had to do with the Civil War results and the babies of slaves who our politicians felt correctly needed protection.
00:20:15.260Please, would somebody explain this to the Supreme Court of the United States?
00:20:20.080A very strong and forthright Donald Trump.
00:20:22.960All right, we're going to go to your questions.
00:20:24.400Our first question comes from Stahl in Staten Island.
00:20:28.640He says, Roger, what do you think of this new requirement for real ID?
00:20:35.000You know, I think this is the worst idea I've ever heard.
00:20:38.420I'm planning on heading to New York this weekend for the Italian-American Civil Rights League gathering out in Queens.
00:20:49.440And I would just learn that when I go to the airport, I'll be required to have one of these new real IDs.
00:20:57.460You can only get one by providing specific records and documents for the federal government.
00:21:03.760Your ID will be labeled with a black or gold star.
00:21:06.940Now, the Department of Homeland Security Secretary, Kristi Noem, has promised that, at least initially, people without the real ID will only have to face some extra scrutiny at security checkpoints at the airport.
00:21:20.740But eventually, everyone will be required to have one.
00:21:24.440The reason they give us for this is that the real IDs will be used to prevent those who are not legally eligible to vote from voting or those who are not legally eligible to receive Social Security benefits because they are not U.S. citizens from receiving such benefits.
00:21:45.180It sounds good, but what it really does is give the government a biometric record of every single person in America.
00:21:55.320This is something conservatives and libertarians have opposed for decades.
00:22:01.500But this law, the Real ID Act, that was actually passed 20 years ago in 2005.
00:22:07.260It was one of the many measures rolled out in the wake of the 9-11 attacks.
00:22:11.820It was presented to the public as being necessary to ensure that similar attacks would never happen again.
00:22:17.680But the truth is, when you go back and look at it, none of the 11 hijackers who attacked America used a fake ID in their efforts to get on the planes, their successful efforts to get on the planes.
00:22:30.140So I think in this case, Alex Jones, my good friend, is absolutely right.
00:22:34.780The real goal here is to create a biometric record of every American.
00:22:53.840Beth from Columbus said, yesterday you spoke about repealing the Patriot Act.
00:22:59.460Do you really think that's a good idea?
00:23:02.800I must tell you, I do think it is a good idea.
00:23:06.300It's yet another example of precisely what we are talking about.
00:23:10.000We were told that the Patriot Act, which allows the government to surveil American citizens, essentially without a warrant, with no probable cause,
00:23:22.760and to hold American citizens in permanent secret detention, was going to be a temporary measure to fight Islamic terrorism.
00:23:33.340But the Patriot Act has been re-approved every four years for the Congress with very, very minor revisions.
00:23:44.200It is kind of obvious to me that it has been abuse, but the crown jewel of that abuse was the fact that the FISA courts were used to spy on President Donald Trump.
00:23:58.600Now, it is a perfect example of the abuse.
00:27:37.240It's not a study regarding pizza quality.
00:27:41.580It is a study that has to do with pizza density, meaning how many pizzas there are per sales per capita based on the population and what the average cost of pizza is.
00:27:57.840To me, Connecticut will always be the pizza mecca as a New Haven style of pizza.
00:28:05.200You find it at Frank Pepe's, you find it at Sally's, you find it at the spot.
00:28:11.580You're now finding it moving into South Florida, I might add.
00:30:05.160I can only assume that Steve is trawling, doing this for clicks, because he knows as well as I do that the U.S. Constitution specifically prohibits any person from serving more than two four-year terms as president.
00:30:23.020Now, they don't have to be contiguous terms, as we've seen in the case of President Grover Cleveland, a conservative Democrat, a New Yorker, a former sheriff, by the way, of Erie County.
00:30:36.460That's Buffalo, a former governor of New York.
00:30:39.680And, of course, Donald Trump, whose two terms are not contiguous.
00:30:43.420A meeting with Meet the Press about a week ago, President Trump finally gave up this particular troll and said, no, he had no intention of running for another term in 2028.
00:30:57.800The idea put forward by some that the party would nominate Vice President J.D. Vance.
00:31:04.680Vance would then choose Trump as his running mate.
00:31:12.640Trump would move up to the presidency.
00:31:16.880He would then appoint J.D. Vance as another four-year term as vice president, which, of course, would be subject to the confirmation by the U.S. Senate.
00:31:27.620That's a fairy tale that is highly unlikely to happen.
00:31:32.080I will be happy, as President Trump said, with four great years.
00:31:39.940So I did note that the president said that he will not just automatically hand the baton to Vice President J.D. Vance, although he had high praise for Vance, he also praised Secretary Marco Rubio as a potential candidate.
00:31:57.260I put a former congresswoman, currently the head of the director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, in that group as well.
00:32:07.880But the president said we could have as many as 16 candidates.
00:32:13.060So I think you should look for a spirited competition for the Republican nomination for president at the end of the golden age years of Donald Trump.
00:32:25.960He's forging new alliances for peace in the Middle East.
00:32:30.940He got a $1 trillion deal from from the Saudis.
