Summary

It's not revenge or retribution, it's accountability and justice. Democrats are guilty of exactly what they accuse the opposition of doing. They are part of a cabal of criminals who, based now on declassified documents and multiple House investigations, most definitely launched the greatest dirty trick in American political politics. They colluded with state prosecutors in Georgia, Nevada and New York to fabricate crimes in those jurisdictions in an attempt to bankrupt Donald Trump and put him in prison.

00:00:32.460 Entertaining and informative.
00:00:34.640 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:00:37.560 You are now diving into the deep end of the Stone Zone.
00:00:42.280 Welcome in.
00:00:43.740 No, it's not revenge or retribution.
00:00:46.360 It's actually accountability and justice.
00:00:49.720 You see, the criminal indictment that was announced for former FBI Director James Comey,
00:00:54.380 as well as New York Attorney General Letitia James,
00:00:57.580 has Democrats complaining incredulously about the massive abuse of power from the Trump administration.
00:01:03.720 According to their rhetoric, the president is on an autocratic, unconstitutional vengeance tour.
00:01:11.720 They say Trump is on a rampage of both revenge and retribution.
00:01:15.700 They actually accused Donald Trump of weaponizing the criminal justice system to go after his political enemies.
00:01:23.260 And they also claim that he's trying to limit the free speech of his critics.
00:01:28.180 These are, of course, precisely, exactly a perfect description of what they themselves have done over the last 12 years.
00:01:37.540 Donald Trump's current drive to prosecute the cabal of criminals who, based now on declassified documents and multiple House investigations,
00:01:48.260 most definitely launched a seditious conspiracy, the greatest dirty trick in American political politics,
00:01:55.180 that included fabricating evidence to justify spying on candidate Donald Trump.
00:02:01.640 Leslie Stahl still owes the president an apology for poo-pooing that on 60 Minutes.
00:02:08.320 They also staged two impeachments after fabricating evidence of Russian collusion.
00:02:15.540 One of those two trials actually turns out was specifically designed to cover up the corruption of Joe Biden in Ukraine,
00:02:22.620 rather than any misdeed by Donald Trump.
00:02:26.400 They also colluded with state prosecutors in Georgia, Nevada, and New York to fabricate crimes in those jurisdictions
00:02:34.220 in an attempt to bankrupt Trump, to keep him off the ballot in all 50 states, and put him in prison.
00:02:40.640 So just to be clear, thanks to the vigorous declassification by Director of Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard,
00:02:47.160 we now know that Barack Obama himself, Joe Biden, his vice president,
00:02:51.280 Susan Rice, John Brennan, James Comey, James Clapper, Rod Rosenstein, Robert Mueller,
00:02:59.140 the odious Andrew Weissman, Lisa Monaco, and Norm Eisen, among others,
00:03:05.140 engaged in an illegal coup against President Donald Trump.
00:03:09.260 And they used the full authority of the United States government
00:03:12.240 in an attempt to both remove him from the presidency,
00:03:14.880 and then later to try to destroy his second successful presidential candidacy.
00:03:21.460 The Democrats and their handmaidens in the media,
00:03:24.480 who are currently whining about Trump's revenge tour,
00:03:28.360 hope that the American people have complete amnesia.
00:03:31.400 They egregiously abused both the law and the U.S. Constitution
00:03:34.760 in their maniacal drive to destroy Donald Trump,
00:03:38.240 having the mainstream media as their cheerleaders.
00:03:41.820 Those amplifying the claim that Trump is out for revenge and retribution
00:03:46.980 are the exact same people who insisted the Russian interference in our elections
00:03:51.440 to help Trump was real.
00:03:53.420 The same people who insisted that Hunter Biden's laptop,
00:03:57.420 which exposed enormous crimes, was Russian disinformation.
00:04:02.980 The same people who claimed that January 6th was an insurrection.
00:04:06.900 All of these fabrications propped up by the fake news media.
00:04:11.520 Once more, it is very clear that those making these accusations,
00:04:16.420 that Trump is on an unhinged revenge tour to attack his enemies,
00:04:21.120 are guilty of exactly what they accuse us of.
00:04:24.220 Democrats accuse the opposition of doing everything that they themselves are doing.
00:04:29.100 It's one of Alinsky's rules.
00:04:31.060 Sol Alinsky, the famous communist operative in his manual, Rules for Radicals,
00:04:36.260 points out that you always accuse your opponent or your enemy
00:04:39.420 of doing exactly that which you yourself are doing.
00:04:43.300 So these Democrats and their friends in the media
00:04:45.860 seem to be under the impression they can put the American public
00:04:49.800 into some kind of amnesia trance,
00:04:52.780 leading the masses to completely forget what's happened over the last 12 years.
00:04:57.760 This is really Orwellian's sleight of hand of horrifying magnitude,
00:05:02.500 a gaslighting attempt of mind-boggling proportions, as it appears to me,
00:05:07.760 as the outrageousness of their abuse of power is exposed.
00:05:11.000 They increasingly claim that any attempt to hold them responsible is somehow retribution.
00:05:15.880 These, I might point out, are the same criminals
00:05:18.020 who fabricated evidence to impeach Donald Trump,
00:05:21.020 then launched a government counterintelligence operation
00:05:24.140 with no probable cause or reasonable basis.
00:05:27.880 They knew that the Steele dossier,
00:05:30.280 the famous document which accused Donald Trump of dallying with Russian prostitutes,
00:05:35.760 was a fabrication paid for by Hillary Clinton.
00:05:38.520 They also knew that the Russians had never actually conducted
00:05:42.360 an illegal online hack of the Democrat National Committee.
00:05:45.780 They used two of those fabricated crimes
00:05:48.720 as a basis for getting forced ISA warrants to spy on Donald Trump.
00:05:54.660 They launched a special council witch hunt based without probable cause.
00:06:01.500 Then, on top of it all,
00:06:03.700 they weaponized the most powerful bureaucratic entities the world has ever known
00:06:08.280 to try to manipulate the public
00:06:09.740 into believing that President Trump was a Russian agent,
00:06:12.560 at the same time radicalizing millions of people in the process
00:06:16.600 and fueling the left-wing frenzy of domestic terrorism
00:06:20.280 and violence that the country is witnessing today.
00:06:23.220 That's right, they coordinated with state Democrat officials
00:06:26.660 in an effort to invent crimes against Trump and his supporters.
00:06:30.040 For example, the formation of slates of alternative electors
00:06:33.760 pending the outcome of disputed elections is not a crime,
00:06:38.500 but they made it one after the fraudulent 2020 presidential election.
00:06:42.480 Special Counsel Jack Smith actually turned
00:06:44.500 questioning the outcome of an election,
00:06:46.860 a right protected by the First Amendment into a supposed criminal offense
00:06:51.760 and worked to charge Trump and his supporters both federally
00:06:55.720 and with state prosecutors in the states.
00:06:58.680 At the same time, the federal government worked hand-in-glove
00:07:02.680 with shady, dark money-funded nonprofits
00:07:06.080 to disbar and destroy any lawyer who dared to represent Donald Trump or his supporters,
00:07:11.760 including my great friend Mayor Rudy Giuliani
00:07:14.680 and the extraordinarily capable Jeff Clark,
00:07:18.280 who served Trump in the Justice Department.
00:07:20.480 Federal entities also worked hand-in-glove
00:07:22.600 with the largest internet platforms to cancel
00:07:25.740 and censor anyone who supported Trump
00:07:28.280 or questioned the integrity of the Mueller witch hunt
00:07:31.540 or the outcome of the 2020 election.
00:07:34.120 That is why it is outrageous for New York Times reporter Peter Baker
00:07:38.220 to say that Trump now seeks to limit the free speech of his critics.
00:07:42.920 In other words, exactly what they got caught doing
00:07:45.920 when Elon Musk purchased Twitter, turned it into X,
00:07:50.100 and turned over the Twitter files that prove
00:07:52.320 the heavy hand of our intelligence agencies
00:07:54.640 in the manipulation of who was and was not allowed to speak on those platforms.
00:07:59.520 I famously wrote a letter to President Trump after the 2024 election
00:08:05.000 in which I urged him to grant a pardon to every well-known Republican,
00:08:10.260 including members of his staff, members of the Senate and the House,
00:08:15.820 his surrogates, and anyone who had questioned the outcome of the election.
00:08:20.120 I accurately predicted that the Democrats would try to make this a crime.
00:08:24.760 My critics, of course, said that I wanted a second pardon
00:08:27.520 for my activities pretending to January 6th,
00:08:30.500 which is ridiculous because the FBI determined very early
00:08:34.360 that I had nothing whatsoever to do with the controversial events of that day.
00:08:39.280 Claims that I met with members of the Proud Boys
00:08:41.300 or the Oath Keepers the night before are categorically false.
00:08:45.460 Any claim that I knew in advance about, participated in,
00:08:49.620 or condoned, for that matter, any illegal activity at the Capitol
00:08:52.860 on January 6th happens to be false,
00:08:54.980 even though I know federal prosecutors, including J.P. Cooney,
00:08:59.820 sought to see all my communications without probable cause.
00:09:03.800 Sorry, I wasn't at the Capitol on January 6th.
00:09:06.900 I know nothing about it.
00:09:08.520 I also had no involvement in the effort to delay the vote of the Electoral College,
00:09:12.900 although I do believe such activities should be constitutionally legal.
00:09:17.780 And then there's January 6th.
00:09:19.200 The vast majority of protesters on January 6th didn't commit violence,
00:09:23.020 but many of their lives were upended for merely taking a stroll through the Capitol
00:09:27.320 after law enforcement opened the doors.
00:09:30.400 Hundreds of federal agents were planted in the audience,
00:09:33.540 fanning the flames of a coordinated, clandestine operation
00:09:38.300 to entrap Trump supporters and frame them as insurrectionists.
00:09:42.320 They even twisted the law to indict many.
00:09:46.080 They twisted the law specifically relying on a novel federal charge,
00:09:51.640 obstruction of official proceeding under 18 U.S.C. 1512C2,
00:09:57.880 a vestige of the corrupt Enron investigation,
00:10:01.920 where corrupt federal prosecutor Andrew Weissman's convictions
00:10:04.480 were unanimously overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court 9-1.
00:10:07.960 But D.C. judges and prosecutors used this charge
00:10:11.960 to unjustly charge, incarcerate, and ultimately torture and abuse many
00:10:17.120 until the U.S. Supreme Court stepped in and rejected its use.
00:10:21.860 The misappropriation of this law was clearly promoted
00:10:24.220 by one of the chief architects of the Russian collusion hoax,
00:10:27.680 the stolen election, and the 2024 lawfare against Trump,
00:10:30.920 Andrew Weissman himself.
00:10:33.240 In New York State, it's even more outrageous.
00:10:35.240 They changed state law to facilitate a prosecution against President Trump
00:10:39.180 in a sexual assault civil case with no evidence,
00:10:43.520 filed by a woman with a history of making deranged and bizarre statements.
00:10:48.340 New York Attorney General Letitia James prosecuted President Trump
00:10:51.980 over the estimated value of his assets, accusing him of tax frauds,
00:10:55.760 similarly to what she is ironically now facing charges over.
00:10:59.900 They convicted Trump in a hush money case,
00:11:01.980 even though they could never demonstrate any underlying illegal act.
00:11:06.920 So they illegally spied on Trump's presidential campaign,
00:11:09.840 and they later spied on eight U.S. senators.
00:11:13.440 All of this was part of a sordid electoral interference plot,
00:11:17.200 the great open-air conspiracy in the history of mankind,
00:11:20.820 with the goal of keeping Donald Trump off the ballot in all 50 states,
00:11:24.880 bankrupting him, destroying him, and sending him to prison.
00:11:28.500 A lesser man would have succumbed to these machinations of this devious and diabolical scheme.
00:11:36.280 President Trump, however, was able to defy the odds in an almost superhuman manner
00:11:40.800 to overcome these seemingly insurmountable obstacles,
00:11:44.460 even surviving an assassination attempt when a sniper incomprehensively
00:11:49.720 was allowed a free shot at his head as Secret Service agents stood idly by.
00:11:55.980 His life was spared for a greater purpose, and the president knows that.
00:12:00.440 In light of this incredible string of events,
00:12:03.300 the mandate is for justice to be served through an unprecedented crackdown
00:12:07.420 against those who turned America upside down in their desperate attempts to cling to power.
00:12:13.880 The extra-legal events of Jack Smith are particularly extraordinary.
00:12:18.640 Getting a D.C. judge to rule,
00:12:20.660 that one of Trump's lawyers, Evan Corcoran,
00:12:23.920 had to testify against him and turn over all of his work product.
00:12:27.960 This is a violation of the Sixth Amendment
00:12:30.000 that would never have withstood Supreme Court review.
00:12:33.900 This has been an unprecedented assault on America,
00:12:37.500 and Donald Trump only seeks to hold those responsible
00:12:41.260 for the violation of the law and the Constitution responsible.
00:12:44.660 No, it's not about retribution, it's not about revenge, it's about justice.
00:12:51.300 Within 24 hours of my arrest at dawn,
00:12:53.320 I was handcuffed and taken to a federal courthouse in shackles and leg irons,
00:12:58.300 having been filmed live by CNN.
00:13:01.820 James Comey, by contrast, was allowed to slip in the back door
00:13:04.900 of a courthouse for arraignment on a date of his choosing.
00:13:09.160 Pardon me if I see some disparity between the treatment of these two cases
00:13:13.740 in view of the fact that I was charged with the exact same crimes as James Comey,
00:13:18.640 lying under oath to Congress and obstructing an official coceding.
00:13:25.120 Unlike James Comey, I'm not actually guilty,
00:13:28.340 but he got kid-glove treatment when my home was stormed
00:13:31.840 by 29 heavily armed FBI agents at 6 o'clock in the morning,
00:13:36.480 having been tipped off, as we now know,
00:13:39.400 having tipped off CNN,
00:13:41.520 whose stakeout began precisely 15 minutes before the FBI arrived.
00:13:45.880 I'm Roger Stone, you're listening to The Stone Zone.
00:13:48.340 We'll be back with more hot politics on the other side.
00:13:52.860 This shrimp and coconut sauce is divine.
00:13:55.560 What's your secret?
00:13:56.540 Goya coconut milk.
00:13:57.700 How does it taste so good?
00:13:59.060 It's all in that real coconut flavor,
00:14:01.060 in that rich, creamy texture.
00:14:03.140 What about thickeners and added sugars?
00:14:05.360 None.
00:14:05.680 Just smooth, coconut-y goodness.
00:14:08.420 What can I make with it?
00:14:09.580 From curries to sweet treats like coconut flan,
00:14:12.500 the possibilities are endless.
00:14:14.920 Goya coconut milk.
00:14:16.120 Take your cooking to the next level.
00:14:17.740 No question about it.
00:14:18.820 Find it in the Goya section of your local grocery store.
00:14:21.200 If it's Goya, it has to be good.
00:14:24.380 The Stone Zone.
00:14:26.360 Entertaining and informative.
00:14:28.320 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:14:30.280 And you're back in The Stone Zone with me, Roger Stone.
00:14:35.360 We're talking about the Democrats' effort to brand Donald Trump's drive to bring those involved in the seditious conspiracy to destroy his presidency to justice as revenge and retribution.
00:14:48.560 But I'm particularly focused on the exploits of Special Counsel Jack Smith.
00:14:54.500 As I said, Smith actually got a corrupt D.C. judge to order Trump's lawyer in the so-called documents case to testify against his client and also provide all of their legal documents.
00:15:06.960 This is a clear violation of the Sixth Amendment.
00:15:10.080 Smith also took the very rare step of presenting his evidence against Donald Trump in the so-called documents case to a D.C. grand jury where he knew he would have sway and then had the testimony read to a Florida grand jury in order to secure indictments in that state since that's where the raid at Mar-a-Lago took place.
00:15:27.860 See, the point of the raid was to get the documents that were recently declassified by Tulsi Gabbard that prove that there was a cabal and that they were desperate to get back the evidence that Donald Trump had quite legally held on to.
00:15:42.920 No lawyer I consulted said that this idea of reading the grand jury testimony of a D.C. grand jury to a Florida grand jury would pass muster.
00:15:52.240 Just another example of Jack Smith bending the rules in his mania to get Donald Trump.
00:15:57.860 In the Soviet-style show trial that I faced in Washington, D.C., the judge specifically prohibited my lawyers from arguing that I had been selectively prosecuted or that there were political motives in my indictment.
00:16:12.420 I was also gagged unconstitutionally because the judge said my public defense of myself might taint the jury pool.
00:16:19.680 She actually extended that unconstitutional gag to my wife and my entire family.
00:16:24.200 None of them were allowed to comment on my case.
00:16:26.060 I appealed this gag ruling to the D.C. Court of Appeals, which sat on it for eight months, only to reject it days before the trial, saying it was not right for decision because I had not yet asked the judge, Judge Amy Berman Jackson, who had placed the gag on me to begin with, to remove it, which, of course, she never would have done.
00:16:43.880 But in that eight months, I took sustained damage from the daily attacks of CNN and the Washington Post.
00:16:51.560 So I say yet again that we have a disparity here.
00:16:57.280 Are they going to gag James Comey?
00:17:00.420 Are they going to bar him and his lawyers from arguing that he is the target of political retribution, that his prosecution is political in nature, that he's been selectively prosecuted?
00:17:12.640 Breaking news, we just heard that James Comey and his lawyers are going to question legality of the appointment of Lindsay Halligan, the incredibly attractive, independent, pardon me, temporary, or I should say interim U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia who's prosecuting Comey.
00:17:32.740 So will Comey be gagged? Will Comey be all limited in his defense, the way they limited me?
00:17:42.800 This remains to be seen.
00:17:44.620 This is going to be a very interesting trial.
00:17:47.820 It's very clear that James Comey now seeks to avoid trial by attempting to question the authority under which President Trump filled the vacancy created by firing the previous U.S. attorney, Eric Siebert,
00:17:59.620 who turned out to have an incredible conflict of interest in the Comey matter.
00:18:04.280 You see, his father-in-law was the godfather to James Comey's daughter.
00:18:09.600 We broke that news right here in the Stone Zone.
00:18:12.460 For more hot news, stay tuned to the Stone Zone because, well, we'll be right back.
00:18:22.260 The Stone Zone.
00:18:24.260 Entertaining and informative.
00:18:26.240 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:18:28.300 And we're back in the Stone Zone.
00:18:32.380 I must say that the surprise standout in Donald Trump's incredible cabinet turns out to be Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
00:18:41.180 Who'd have thunk it?
00:18:42.120 Rubio, of course, famously ran against President Trump in 2016.
00:18:47.580 Trump called him Lil Marco.
00:18:49.660 They really clashed on the debate stage.
00:18:52.400 But Marco Rubio was very smart.
00:18:54.220 He repaired his personal relationship with President Trump during Trump's four years as president.
00:18:59.400 They worked together very closely on fighting communism in this hemisphere.
00:19:04.860 Now, I supported Marco Rubio when he was the Florida House Speaker.
00:19:09.860 And he defeated one of the greatest political switch winners of all time, Governor Charlie Crist, then running for the Republican U.S.
00:19:17.400 Senate nomination in 2010 at the height of the Tea Party era.
00:19:21.960 In fact, Rubio ran such an effective campaign that Crist bailed out of the Republican primary, decided to run as an independent where he was ignominiously defeated.
00:19:34.100 It was only then that Charlie Crist, who'd been a successful Republican attorney general and Republican governor of Florida, switched parties, went from being a Ronald Reagan Republican to being a pro-Barack Obama Democrat.
00:19:50.680 There's a famous joke.
00:19:52.120 A man, an independent Republican and a Democrat walked into a bar and the bartender said, hi, Charlie.
00:19:58.720 The Bush machine in Florida was vehemently opposed to Marco Rubio when he ran for president in 2016.
00:20:04.800 Remember very clearly, the Bush people were very angry.
00:20:07.880 They thought it was Jeb's turn.
00:20:10.340 They also felt that Rubio owed them because they had supported him in his quest for the U.S. Senate.
00:20:16.660 Although I was a strong supporter of Donald Trump, I also felt that Rubio had every right to run.
00:20:22.140 And the wait-your-turn sense of entitlement surrounding Jeb Bush and his entourage was, frankly, extremely offensive to me.
00:20:30.400 Jeb Bush's campaign slogan seemed to be, father, father, tell them it's my turn to be king.
00:20:36.520 None of them, of course, saw this brash businessman, the billionaire from New York, coming.
00:20:42.540 The political elites laughed at his candidacy, wrote him off as an anachronism or a cartoon character,
00:20:50.540 never understanding that the people were hungry for real answers and real solutions to America's problems.
00:20:58.080 Because Rubio had risen from the politics of Miami-Dade, he's always been a strong anti-communist,
00:21:03.700 particularly in regard to Cuba and this hemisphere, which is actually why I've always liked him.
00:21:08.720 Now, however, Rubio is fulfilling his potential by expertly implementing President Trump's America First foreign policy
00:21:15.360 in his role as Secretary of State.
00:21:17.460 In fact, only yesterday, President Donald Trump said it.
00:21:21.060 He said that Marco Rubio would go down in history as one of the greatest Secretary of States of all time.
00:21:26.360 Let's listen to the President talking about Marco Rubio.
00:21:29.380 A man named Marco Rubio, who is also here.
00:21:33.980 That's right.
00:21:38.720 And I have a prediction that Marco will go down, I mean this,
00:21:53.100 as the greatest Secretary of State in the history of the United States.
00:21:57.020 I believe that.
00:21:58.640 I believe it.
00:22:03.820 And he and I, you know, we really fought it out.
00:22:05.700 You remember, he was tough.
00:22:07.780 He was nasty.
00:22:09.620 Who the hell thought this was going to happen, Marco, right?
00:22:12.120 And now I'm saying he's going to go down as the greatest he will.
00:22:14.940 He was always, he was always smart and sharp and people respect him.
00:22:21.080 And then we have somebody.
00:22:22.420 So there you have it.
00:22:23.880 The President praising his former rival.
00:22:28.000 Rubio has always taken an intent interest in stopping communists in the Western Hemisphere.
00:22:32.060 Something, frankly, no administration has done since the days of Ronald Reagan.
00:22:35.200 And he has a lot of damage to undo from the recent past.
00:22:38.500 The Biden regime supported various governments in Latin America based almost solely on their
00:22:43.320 adherence to the woke agenda, even if it meant harming U.S. national security interests.
00:22:48.840 Also, the communist Chinese are most active in both Central and South America, seeking to
00:22:54.660 buy influence and essentially infiltrate every strata of society in those continents.
00:23:02.180 It doesn't matter if a regime like Xiomar Castro in Honduras raised drug money to obtain power
00:23:08.400 and freely allowed planes to carry narcotics from Venezuela into her country.
00:23:13.240 As long as she repeated the correct liberal buzzwords, as long as she could remain in the
00:23:18.320 good graces of the Biden regime, she was propped up.
00:23:22.420 Colombian President Gustavo Petro did photo ops with former President Joe Biden, talking about
00:23:28.160 the efforts to combat climate change.
00:23:30.460 Meanwhile, his country is a haven for the production of cocaine.
00:23:34.880 But Petro was able to undermine cocaine interdiction policies supported by the United States unabated
00:23:42.500 as long as he posed for these photo ops and spoke high praise for Joe Biden.
00:23:48.680 The Biden regime also put a puppet regime in place in Guatemala, one that they knew would
00:23:53.700 do little, if anything, to curb the flow of migrants.
00:23:56.680 Former Guatemalan President Alejandro Giamatti was ignored by the Biden administration, most
00:24:02.260 notably by National Security Secretary Andreo Mayorkas and Secretary of State Blinken, when
00:24:09.340 he asked for help with the migrant problem in his country.
00:24:12.160 The Biden regime was plotting a color revolution to oust him and to place him with a pro-gobalist
00:24:18.140 moderate, Bernardo Alvedo, the current president.
00:24:22.460 Under the Trump administration, the objections have flipped from what they were under Biden.
00:24:26.980 President Trump and Secretary Rubio have not hesitated to rile, entrenched, corrupt government
00:24:33.560 leaders in Latin America.
00:24:35.320 They've challenged the status quo in the region, whereas previously, firebrands like my good
00:24:41.120 friend, Argentine President Javier Malay, obviously, and President Nayib Bukele, another friend of
00:24:48.840 mine, President of El Salvador, were regularly chastised as radical and authoritarian.
00:24:54.780 They've been embraced by Marco Rubio and the Trump administration as an answer to the spread
00:25:00.660 of communism and narco-Marxism in the region.
00:25:06.220 It is catching on as more right-leaning parties are beginning to gain traction in democratic
00:25:11.600 elections all across Latin America.
00:25:14.780 Malay and Bukele have merged as counterweights to the region's communist bulk work.
00:25:20.500 That, of course, would be Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro.
00:25:24.640 Maduro, of course, is a major league drug trafficker, now trying to reposition himself as being
00:25:31.580 tough on the drug traffickers, but they're all just talking points.
00:25:37.000 Maduro, as well as his predecessor, Hugo Chavez, turned Venezuela from being South America's
00:25:45.760 most prosperous country into a backward, destitute nation with barely functioning socialist system.
00:25:51.860 They have been allowed to persist for decades, taking the mantle from Cuba to become more
00:25:58.080 malignant than ever, but an aggressive approach by Marco Rubio has left them reeling.
00:26:05.700 Rubio and the president demand the removal of Maduro and have supported the democratic opposition.
00:26:13.760 Under Rubio, South American drug gangs, including the infamous Venezuelan trend,
00:26:19.840 and Argua have been designated as terrorist entities, allowing them to receive the full
00:26:24.500 force of the federal government.
00:26:26.900 An extremely popular bombing campaign targeting narco boats trafficking with the Venezuela regime
00:26:34.680 has commenced.
00:26:35.840 As a result, traffickers are beginning to understand that there will be major consequences if they
00:26:40.620 continue this behavior against national security interests in the United States.
00:26:45.180 So, whereas previous secretaries of state were concerned with nation building and Middle
00:26:50.840 Eastern hellholes and bringing democracy to illiterate cave dwellers, Marco Rubio is concerned
00:26:56.880 with stopping drugs, refugees, and the leftist ideologues emanating from Latin America.
00:27:03.120 Rubio understands that America cannot be great again without America, all Americans, being great
00:27:08.900 again.
00:27:09.180 If Latin America is allowed to fester and decay, well, then the ramifications for our own country
00:27:14.740 will be sharply felt.
00:27:17.000 When Latin American countries are strong and prosperous, we have the money, they have the
00:27:21.660 money, pardon me, to fund law enforcement that can interdict drugs without U.S. resources
00:27:26.380 being deployed towards those ends.
00:27:28.900 Those Latin countries under pro-freedom leadership will be able to put their people to work at home
00:27:33.540 instead of creating the conditions that inevitably lead to migrants fleeing for greener pastures,
00:27:39.920 in other words, the United States.
00:27:42.160 Rubio understands the holistic nature of crafting public policy across the entire region to generate
00:27:49.180 prosperity for the people of Central and South America, as well as safety in their communities,
00:27:56.820 but above all, to stop the narcotics trafficking.
00:28:00.360 As the hemispheres remain according to the will of Donald Trump, Marco Rubio will be remembered
00:28:06.640 as the architect of policies that will continue to shape the MAGA movement.
00:28:12.180 He has risen from once being a pariah in our movement to steadily gain the respect of an evolving
00:28:18.120 Republican Party and then emerging in the second Trump administration as among the most revered
00:28:24.920 figures.
00:28:25.460 He clearly should be considered as a candidate for president or vice president, although he
00:28:31.660 assures me that he doubts that he's running for public office again.
00:28:36.200 But Marco Rubio is the surprise standout in this cabinet.
00:28:41.220 The other standout is kind of obvious.
00:28:43.440 That would be Tulsi Gabbard.
00:28:45.120 I must say that in the 50 years I've been in American politics, I've never been as impressed
00:28:51.780 as I am with her communication skills as well as her leadership skills.
00:28:58.060 There was a time during her confirmation hearings when they were still scratching up the votes
00:29:03.500 of Republican senators and one particular Republican senator demanded that Tulsi Gabbard retract something
00:29:11.000 that she said she had said about the disclosure of American secrets.
00:29:21.420 And she absolutely refused to bend on a matter of principle.
00:29:26.860 She, of course, is a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve, a combat veteran who served her country well in Iraq.
00:29:36.540 She's also a championship swimmer and a crack shot.
00:29:41.260 She is extraordinarily disciplined.
00:29:44.960 And I have predicted right here in the Stone Zone that she will be president someday.
00:29:52.320 It is not necessarily 2028, although I guess if I were making a ticket, I would want a woman
00:29:58.500 on the ticket.
00:29:59.120 I think that woman should be Tulsi Gabbard.
00:30:02.300 Some people say, well, she used to be a Democrat.
00:30:03.780 Look, Ronald Reagan used to be a Democrat.
00:30:06.520 Donald Trump used to be a Democrat.
00:30:10.080 So I think that this is a cabinet of winners, whether it's Pete Hegseth, whether it's Robert F.
00:30:17.300 Kennedy Jr., whether it is Tulsi Gabbard, whether it's Marco Rubio.
00:30:21.260 This is an all-star cabinet, very different than Donald Trump's first term.
00:30:25.520 Everybody in this cabinet is copacetic with Trump's agenda and Trump's message.
00:30:30.600 Nobody in this cabinet thinks that their job is to slow down or impede or reshape the president's vision.
00:30:38.320 They all understand their job is to implement his vision, which is why America is back.
00:30:44.340 It's why our economy is strong and why he now has a record for peacemaking that, in my opinion,
00:30:51.340 has earned him the Nobel Peace Prize.
00:30:53.200 The list of nations where he has brought peace continues to be extended with the announcement that he reached agreement between Israel and Hamas to release the hostages.
00:31:07.440 They have, at the Nobel Peace Prize Committee, of course, they gave the award to Maria Karina Machado, who heads the Democratic resistance in Venezuela.
00:31:21.260 But to ignore Trump's record, ending hostilities between India and Pakistan, the ceasefire between Israel and Iran,
00:31:28.520 the ending of the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda, particularly bloody conflict, ending the war between Thailand and Cambodia, the constant border clashes.
00:31:40.300 He ends with a ceasefire negotiated by Donald Trump, ending the hostilities between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
00:31:47.760 And then in his first time, bringing Syria, Lebanon and Saudi Arabia closer to Israel and to the United States in a historic peace deal that they said could not get done.
00:32:00.680 One of the great accomplishments of his son-in-law, who I think did an extraordinary job, Jared Kushner.
00:32:09.800 So Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.
00:32:12.940 I never thought that the elitist, globalist, Norwegian, Nobel Peace Prize-centered board would give Trump the award,
00:32:24.380 giving it, as I say, to Maria Karina Machado.
00:32:27.540 I think right now the appropriate thing would be for Machado to accept the award and then give the award to President Donald Trump, who most definitely deserves it.
00:32:38.280 History can bestow no greater title than that of Peacemaker and Trump's record of not just starting no new wars,
00:32:46.980 because it is notable that he is the first president in modern times who did not start a new war on his watch in his first four years,
00:32:56.180 but now ending all of these conflicts.
00:32:59.880 This is a guy that the radical left Democrats and their handmaidens in the fake news media insisted was going to start world war.
00:33:08.280 He's turned out to be a peacemaker.
00:33:12.000 He's not even one year into his first term.
00:33:14.980 He has accomplished more in one year than Joe Biden accomplished in four years, if he accomplished anything whatsoever.
00:33:22.640 He deserves that Nobel Peace Prize.
00:33:25.760 And I think that perhaps I'm praying that Maria Karina Machado gets this message,
00:33:31.420 or maybe someone will suggest to her that she should give the award to Donald Trump.
00:33:38.280 Meanwhile, the Democrats are going out of their minds at Trump's incredible success.
00:33:43.780 They continue to use judicial tyranny to try to block him, with a judge now claiming that the president cannot move National Guard troops into Portland,
00:33:56.320 which has essentially been taken over by Antifa thugs.
00:33:59.760 That, of course, will be appealed to the higher courts.
00:34:03.740 And Trump will once again be allowed to fulfill his role as the chief executive.
00:34:09.960 You're listening to The Stone Zone with me, Roger Stone.
00:34:12.540 We've got more hot politics on the other side.
00:34:15.600 So whatever you do, please don't touch that dial.
00:34:18.900 The Stone Zone, entertaining and informative.
00:34:25.820 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:34:28.800 And we're back in The Stone Zone.
00:34:32.000 A new poll from Rasmussen shows that 52% of Americans support President Trump's decision
00:34:38.800 to deploy National Guard troops in cities across the country in order to protect ICE agents.
00:34:44.900 This includes 39% of Americans who strongly support the move, showing how the move is overwhelmingly popular with a core group of Americans.
00:34:54.300 Additionally, when asked if they had agreed with the following statement,
00:34:57.800 We have seen over the last nine months an ongoing legal insurrection in which district court judges have issued rulings that are flagrantly unlawful and unconstitutional.
00:35:09.500 56% of Americans said they fully agreed.
00:35:13.360 So even though the Democrat media apparatus and the deep state have been attempting to demonize Donald Trump as an authoritarian,
00:35:21.660 claiming that he has been on some revenge and retribution tour when he's simply trying to hold those who violated the law and the Constitution in their efforts to destroy him accountable,
00:35:32.880 the American people clearly don't see it as the fake news media is spinning it.
00:35:37.000 They see President Trump as a patriot who is fighting to save his country by getting illegal immigrants out of the country.
00:35:44.860 They also see the system revolting against him to protect criminality.
00:35:51.080 Not only take a political courage for Donald Trump to engage in these vows,
00:35:54.620 it also shows Trump's strategic acumen, something I recognized as early as 1988 when I first urged him to look seriously at running for president.
00:36:03.860 He's taking bold stances that are supported by a majority of the public that also backs the Democrats into a corner
00:36:10.580 and forces them to stand with illegal immigrants, stand with men who want to play in women's sports and stand with violent leftist rioters.
00:36:21.040 We are truly blessed to have a leader like Donald Trump in the White House during these extraordinary and precarious times.
00:36:27.860 Meanwhile, CNN's Christiane Amapur was forced to apologize after claiming that Israeli hostages,
00:36:36.340 now released to freedom after President Trump's peace deal,
00:36:40.380 received treatments from their Hamas captors that was, quote, better than the average Gazan,
00:36:48.180 inferring that Israel is the aggressor and the bad guy in this scenario.
00:36:52.840 Now, keep in mind that the Israeli hostages were murdered, raped, and beaten savagely by their Hamas captors.
00:37:00.200 But in the minds of the fake news media hacks,
00:37:03.260 it's really the Israelis who are at fault for refusing to take Hamas terrorism lying down.
00:37:10.040 In her very insincere mandated apology,
00:37:13.440 I am horrified by this entire event, but then I don't get my news from CNN for the same reason I don't drink out of the toilet.
00:37:33.480 So very different than here on the Stone Zone where we bring you the stone-cold truth,
00:37:37.800 CNN, the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, the Associated Press,
00:37:43.460 these are not news outlets.
00:37:45.380 These are propaganda fronts in which they lie to you again and again,
00:37:51.240 backing the national narrative of the Democrats in their anti-Trump frenzy.
00:37:57.220 If you're looking for the actual facts, if you want to know what's going on,
00:38:02.200 the inside skinny on American politics,
00:38:05.300 you're going to stick with us here every day in the Stone Zone.
00:38:08.680 Until tomorrow, God bless you and Godspeed.
