Trump has endorsed Texas AG Ken Paxton for the U.S. Senate seat in the Lone Star State, calling him an American first patriot, a loyal MAGA warrior, and a proven winner. President Trump said Paxton has stood with him and the MAGA movement through difficult political battles and knows how to win.
00:10:14.840Let me stress, however, that a seditious conspiracy, which is what I think could place here, has no statute of limitations.
00:10:21.900In other words, it can be prosecuted at any time.
00:10:25.380That's why I think the acting attorney general, Todd Blunt, is wisely putting into place the evidence to prove that this was one ongoing seditious conspiracy.0.66
00:10:35.620One could even argue that it continues up until this day with John Brennan, the epically corrupt Islamic convert who was the CIA director and one of the major orchestrators of the Russian collusion hoax.0.53
00:10:49.420Only days ago on MSNOW, they had to change their name because their credibility was so low, insisting that there were many professionals still in the intelligence agencies who were resisting this effort to hold people accountable.0.64
00:11:15.620We cannot let this fall by the wayside.
00:11:17.460It's time for Comey, Brennan, Clapper, Rosenstein, McCabe, and the entire deep state cabal, including Barack Obama and Joe Biden himself, to do perp walks.
00:11:30.980This is not about retaliation and revenge.
00:11:35.180It is about accountability and justice.
00:11:39.340In the meantime, Iran has sent a new 14-point peace proposal to the United States through Pakistani mediators.
00:11:46.860but Tehran is still stubbornly refusing to cede its nuclear threat.
00:11:52.320Iranian state-linked media says the regime is demanding U.S. reparations
00:11:56.500for damage from Operation Epic Fury, the lifting of all sanctions,
00:12:02.240and the unfreezing of Iranian assets seized over terrorism-related activity.
00:12:07.600Reports also say that Tehran wants Israel to halt operations in Lebanon,
00:12:12.120wants U.S. forces to leave areas near Iran,
00:12:14.760and wants America to end its blockade of Iranian shipments near the Straits of Hormuz.
00:12:20.940What Iran apparently is not offering is assurances that it will end its nuclear program.
00:12:26.000Iranian officials continue to describe uranium enrichment as a national right
00:12:29.960and dismiss U.S. concerns about nuclear weapons.0.92
00:12:33.240President Trump has already rejected an earlier Iranian offer as garbage
00:12:37.960and has made it clear his red line that there will be no deal0.69
00:12:42.800unless Iran can never obtain nuclear weapons.
00:13:38.780You're listening to the Stone Zone right here on the Red Apple Audio Networks, where we join you five days a week to talk about news, history, style, politics, and occasionally we talk about food, my other favorite subject.
00:13:51.920Don't go away, because we'll be right back in the Stone Zone.
00:13:55.640This is the Stone Zone with Roger Stone.
00:13:59.420He likes politics, and he's a professional at the highest level.
00:15:22.360I can't tell you how much I appreciate those warm words from Vice President J.D. Vance,
00:15:28.580a man for whom I have enormous respect and who I think great, great things are yet to come.
00:15:33.920Vice President J.D. Vance now says the Justice Department is looking into Representative Ilhan Omar over long-running allegations of immigration fraud.
00:15:44.340During a Tuesday press briefing, the Daily Caller reporter Reagan Reese asked Vice President Vance whether he expects an indictment against Omar.
00:15:53.500Vance responded that claims surrounding Omar's marriage history appear fishy, but emphasized that everyone's entitled to equal justice under the law.
00:16:01.620He said the administration is investigating, reviewing the facts, and will prosecute if officials believe a crime occurred.
00:16:09.560Vance added that the matter is something the Justice Department is indeed carefully examining.
00:16:13.860The comments come about a month after Vance made stronger remarks on Benny Johnson's podcast,
00:16:19.340accusing Omar of committing immigration fraud and tying her to an alleged fraud within parts of the Somali community.
00:16:27.000Omar has repeatedly denied allegations that she married her own brother
00:16:30.900in order to illegally gain U.S. citizenship despite all signs pointing this being the case.
00:16:36.660After Vance's earlier comments, she dismisses the claims as a, quote,
00:16:40.460ridiculous lie and accused Republicans of trying to distract from other issues.
00:16:46.160Omar may think that she's going to get some DEI passed to be above the law,0.68
00:16:51.080which may have been the case when Joe Biden was in office,
00:16:53.720but is no longer the case in Donald Trump's America,
00:16:57.740a sitting member of Congress should not receive special protection
00:17:00.800because she's a Democrat or a minority
00:17:03.620or receives protection from their handmaidens in the mainstream media.
00:17:08.960The Justice Department should not show any leniency towards Omar.
00:17:12.760She should be held to the same standard as anyone else.
00:17:16.060It has also come out in recent weeks that Omar may have had knowledge
00:17:19.480about the extent of Somali fraud going on in Minnesota0.64
00:17:23.120and actually helped to facilitate it.1.00
00:17:42.400Yesterday, we revealed how she was well aware of the fraud going on in a meals program in Minnesota.
00:17:50.240What you see in Minnesota, this kind of social welfare fraud, is just the tip of the iceberg.
00:17:57.360Before it's all over, you will see that similar programs and similar fraud have taken place in Ohio, Washington State, California, New York, as well as Michigan and other states.
00:18:10.200For those who don't think this will be an issue in the 2026 election, I think you should guess again.
00:18:16.260And it's particularly interesting to note that among those who traveled to China with President Trump was Elon Musk.
00:18:25.500Elon Musk was an extraordinarily beneficial force in the 2024 election.
00:18:30.920I expect him to be an extraordinarily important force in the 2026 elections as well.
00:18:39.360He and President Trump have clearly had a rapprochement.
00:18:41.920And the spending issue, the waste, fraud, and corruption issues, they motivate Elon Musk to open his wallet.
00:18:52.300I'm Roger Stone, you're listening to Stone Zone, and we'll be right back.
00:19:44.580And you're diving headfirst right back into the deep end of the Stone Zone, where we bring you the political news five days a week.
00:19:53.020Well, President Donald Trump is demanding a Justice Department investigation after Maryland election officials admitted a massive mail-in ballot failure affecting hundreds of thousands of voters.
00:20:04.220Why do outlets like the New York Times and the Washington Post, the Associated Press, CNN, MSNBC and the others keep insisting that voter fraud in America is literally non-existent when there's so much evidence to the contrary?
00:20:19.060The Maryland State Board of Elections says a vendor error caused some voters to receive primary ballots listing the wrong party's candidates.
00:20:28.680Because officials cannot determine exactly which voters received which ballots, the state is reissuing mail-in ballots to roughly 400,000 voters who requested them before May 14th.
00:20:41.280The original ballots remain in circulation, though election officials are telling voters to destroy the first ballot and use the replacement.
00:20:48.540What a mess. President Trump blasted the situation onto social, warning that the Maryland sent out hundreds of thousands of flawed ballots and is now sending replacement ballots, while no one knows fully what will happen with the first batch.
00:21:03.140He said he'll ask the Attorney General and the Department of Justice to launch an immediate investigation.
00:21:08.060The Maryland Freedom Caucus, that's a small group of conservatives in the Maryland legislature, a very small group, I might add, is also demanding action, calling for a federal audit of the state's voter rolls and warning that double ballots in circulation threaten the basic principle of one person, one vote.
00:21:27.820State officials say the mistake may affect only a small number of voters, but they're reissuing ballots out of caution.
00:21:35.260She'd come as no surprise that they want to minimize their error and stop the Trump administration from digging deeper.
00:21:40.900They most particularly don't want anyone to examine their voter list to see whether, in fact, it's clean
00:21:46.020and whether the people on the voting list are actually alive, actually residents of Maryland, and are actually U.S. citizens.
00:22:25.980When ballots are mailed incorrectly, duplicated, and left floating out there, that opens the door.
00:22:30.160The Trump administration needs to continue pushing this matter until the scourge of mail-in voting can be eradicated in Maryland and across the country.
00:22:38.800The president's right. Election day is exactly what it says. Election day. The election should take place on one day.
00:22:45.880You should not be counting and new ballots found days, in some cases, weeks after the election.
00:22:52.140And we need to return to all paper ballots.
00:22:54.220If France, a country that uses paper ballots, can count 38 paper ballots in one day, then surely we here in the United States can do the same.
00:23:05.380Paper ballots, no mail-in voting, absentee ballots only with a valid excuse, such as health or if you can prove that you have to be out of town or out of the country on some legitimate business purpose or you're in the service, absentee ballots would be appropriate.
00:23:22.400Otherwise, we should return to one-day elections and paper ballots.
00:35:32.460You know, I don't think most people realize it, but it is entirely possible that America could add two additional states.
00:35:40.440Under the Canadian Constitution, any province within Canada may withdraw from their union by a simple majority vote of the people.
00:35:52.540Two of the wealthiest, when it comes to natural resources, as well as gas and oil, rare earth minerals, two of the wealthiest provinces, Saskatchewan and Alberta, have fledging independence movements.
00:36:10.320the courts have sought to slow this down in the case of Alberta, Saskatchewan, which if anything
00:36:16.420is even smaller, more conservative, but every bit as wealthy, if not wealthier in terms of
00:36:22.820natural resources than Alberta, also has a fledging independence movement. Were those two states to
00:36:29.980become independent, they could then apply for membership in the United States. That would
00:36:35.840require the approval of the majority of the states. But were that to be the case, then America
00:36:42.220would extend all the way from the Canadian border to Alaska in one continuous landmass. You also
00:36:50.160would, in my opinion, elect four more Republican U.S. senators and perhaps a dozen more Republican
00:36:57.140congressmen. It is not outside the realm of actual legal possibility that Donald Trump or his
00:37:03.820successor could add the next two states. And then, of course, there is the question of Greenland.
00:37:09.820President Trump is now pushing for a strategic vote over future Chinese or Russian investments
00:37:15.800in Greenland. Reports have indicated that U.S., Danish, and Greenlandic officials have been
00:37:21.500holding quiet talks over a deal that would expand America's foothold on the Arctic island while
00:37:27.940blocking Beijing and Moscow from gaining access to its mineral wealth.
00:37:33.720Greenland is, in fact, rich in rare earth minerals, uranium, oil, and other critical minerals.
00:37:39.460These materials are vital for missiles, radar systems, fighter jets, electric vehicles,
00:37:46.220semiconductors, and next-generation communications.
00:37:50.320China currently dominates the global rare earth supply chain, producing about 70% of
00:37:57.160the world's supply and controlling roughly 90 percent of processing capacity. That gives Beijing0.65
00:38:03.940enormous leverage, especially if conflict erupts over Taiwan. President Trump's demand would prevent
00:38:10.800Chinese-linked firms from brokering major infrastructure and resource deals in Greenland.
00:38:16.200Trump administration rightly sees the island as a strategic reserve in case China weaponizes
00:38:21.980mineral exports. The talks also include expanding America's military presence in Iceland,
00:38:28.380potentially with new bases under an updated 1951 defense agreement with Denmark. This is exactly
00:38:35.100what an America-first strategy looks like. President Trump understands that national
00:38:39.980power is not just limited to troops and tariffs, it's also supply chains, minerals, energy,
00:38:45.700bases, and denying communist China control over resources that fuel modern warfare.
00:38:51.980Stakes over Greenland are enormous. By the way, every president, starting with Dwight Eisenhower,
00:38:57.720have thought that Greenland should be part of the United States, and President Trump must continue
00:39:03.120putting pressure to ensure that China and Russia don't gain ground in the Arctic in the meantime.
00:39:08.800This must culminate in the United States ultimately taking control of Greenland, as President Trump
00:39:13.160can offer the people a much better deal than the Danish, who can't even come close to either giving0.86
00:39:18.800them the resources they need or defending them. And of course, Greenland stands within a crucial
00:39:24.520waterway should America be attacked by Russian submarines. So the president's desire for
00:39:31.580Greenland is not just expansionism or jingoism. There's a real strategic interest in our obtaining
00:39:39.260Greenland. And I'm hopeful that we'll add two more states out of Canada, Saskatchewan and Alberta.
00:39:45.820They would be welcome to be the next two United States
