Summary
Argentina is a country of free market capitalism and free enterprise. President Mauricio Macri is the first Latin American president to win the presidential election in over 30 years, and he is ushering in a new era of economic growth and free market reforms. However, the deep state and the left are determined to hold the country back and keep it stuck in its old ways.

Zone. They once said that Buenos Aires was the Paris of South America. Argentina was
00:00:33.460
once one of the most successful and wealthy democracies in this side of the world. Over
00:00:42.520
time, unfortunately, like many great capitalist-based societies, Argentina was destroyed by Juan
00:00:51.120
Perón. Juan Perón was a political mastermind, his political career guided by his famous
00:00:57.320
wife, Evita Perón. It had both a right and left wing, and it dominated that nation's
00:01:03.940
politics. It did mobilize the poorer voters who voted so the rich could continue to eat
00:01:11.520
all the cake, but that's a different story. Ultimately, Perónism morphed into Kirchnerism
00:01:18.220
with back-to-back presidents, first of all, Nestor Kirchner, then his horrific wife,
00:01:24.640
Christina Kirchner. This is like Casey DeSantis on steroids. They were robber barons that suppressed
00:01:31.920
freedom, that taught to limit free speech, that limited the markets, that also they embraced
00:01:40.040
the police state, they destroyed the economy. And people thought that was the wave of the
00:01:46.800
future for Argentina. Several years ago, I met a rather unorthodox and eccentric economist
00:01:52.780
and thinker named Javier Malay. We met through Twitter direct messages. We became very good
00:01:58.880
friends. And I appreciate the fact that he was a devotee of Milton Friedman, that he had widely
00:02:05.060
read the writings of William F. Buckley Jr., that he was familiar with Ludwig von Mises,
00:02:11.540
and he understood the benefits of free market capitalism and freedom. And he had Elvis-like
00:02:19.820
sideburns. And he campaigned for the presidency with a chainsaw, pledging to take a chainsaw to
00:02:27.360
government spending. He's made good on his word. There have been extraordinary upticks and
00:02:34.400
improvements in Argentina's economy under his new leadership. Of course, the deep state and the left
00:02:41.460
said that the country would fall into chaos. That hasn't happened. If you need any proof of it,
00:02:46.540
look at the recent elections. They had weekends, they had elections days ago, just yesterday,
00:02:55.260
I believe. Malay's party, La Libertad de Vanza, won approximately 41.5% of the vote, particularly strong
00:03:03.680
in the Buenos Aires province, which historically has always been dominated by left-wing Peronism and
00:03:11.780
even the Kirshners. Additionally, Malay's party increased their seats in the lower house from
00:03:17.660
37 to 64. These were projected by the fake news media, of course, to be close elections that would
00:03:24.620
end up being a route to prove to the public that people are willing to see Malay through the free
00:03:32.820
market reforms he's bringing to that country. He had scored a big win days ago after meeting with
00:03:37.960
Donald Trump. If you don't know it, folks, the United States is facing a massive beef shortage.
00:03:43.800
I wrote about this. It's at stonecoldtruth.com. I think I also wrote it on Stone Zone.
00:03:48.800
The reason we are and the reason why a high-quality steak or a very good hamburger could soon be very hard
00:03:55.980
to find and extremely expensive, if you can find one, is because of the radical environmental policies
00:04:04.260
that began under Barack Obama and were re-fired by Joe Biden. In the fall of 2025, Americans just look
00:04:15.400
at the numbers. In 1951, there were 82 million head of steer in the country that were going to be
00:04:22.780
quality beef. Today, that number is 28.2. It is the radical environmental policies combined with a
00:04:31.980
screwworm epidemic in northern Mexico, where we were getting a lot of our premium beef, that create a
00:04:38.800
coming beef shortage. So don't complain if you can't get that burger or that porterhouse or that
00:04:44.900
New York strip. President Trump has recognized this. When he met with Argentine President Harvey
00:04:51.240
Malay, one of Malay's asks was an increase in the quota of high-quality Argentine beef to the United
00:04:57.820
States, and President Trump granted that request. There are some U.S. cattlemen who are unhappy about
00:05:03.740
that, but unfortunately, they have no solution to the beef shortage. They are already producing at
00:05:09.800
their maximum levels. The herd size is down. The air and water mandates put in place by Joe Biden
00:05:16.840
making it very difficult to bring beef to market. President Trump is fighting every day to do that,
00:05:25.000
and then, of course, this Mexican scandal. Malay's reduced inflation in this country from 12 percent to
00:05:31.320
2 percent, as well as actually for the first time having a surplus. So he's actually implemented the
00:05:36.440
strict fiscal conservatism he talked about during the campaign. It hasn't come without turmoil,
00:05:42.800
as it takes him to reverse a nation that was in as bad a situation as Argentina. They had ruined this
00:05:49.360
country the way they're trying to ruin the United States. But Malay was able to negotiate an aid
00:05:54.000
package with President Trump. Trump gave Argentina a $40 billion aid package featuring a $20 billion
00:06:00.560
currency swap and a $20 billion debt investment facility. See, Donald Trump stands up for those who stand up
00:06:07.760
for freedom. The dictators like Maduro, Xiomar Castro in Honduras, and the current leader of the regime
00:06:19.280
in Cuba, those who have been trafficking in drugs, as well as a vile ideology, they will get no quarter
00:06:27.680
from Marco Rubio and Donald Trump, who have made it very clear that Chinese Communist-backed
00:06:33.280
communist narco-terrorism in this hemisphere is unacceptable under the Trump doctrine. Malay is
00:06:41.680
like Naive Bukele in El Salvador. He's a success story, an incredible success story. They have taken
00:06:51.120
what was one of the most dangerous unstable places in the world, El Salvador, and it is a model of both
00:06:57.120
peace and economic opportunity. They're using cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, and other innovative
00:07:02.880
technologies to boost their economy. So I salute my good friend Javier Malay for negotiating a great
00:07:11.840
aid package for bringing his country back from the brink. And you gotta admit, you love this guy's burns.
00:07:18.560
He is very cool. Zoran Mandami continues to lead in the race for mayor, but recent polling,
00:07:28.240
highlighted by my good friend Mayor Rudy Giuliani, actually shows that in a two-person race,
00:07:35.360
it is Republican Curtis Sliwa who runs a stronger race against Mamdami. He still trails, I believe it was
00:07:42.560
by eight points. At this point, I listened to the debate. I had the high privilege of being on the Larry
00:07:49.200
Kudlow show with Larry Kudlow, and my assessment really was that Andrew Cuomo demonstrated his
00:07:54.800
superior knowledge of government. Zoran Mandami demonstrated his superior knowledge of politics,
00:08:02.880
artfully dodging and weaving on the issues so as to don't get caught, while Curtis Sliwa demonstrated his
00:08:10.400
superior knowledge of New York and what it needs. I thought it was much better than the second debate.
00:08:17.360
Andrew Cuomo is just endlessly annoying to me. It wasn't long ago that he said, as I recalled,
00:08:23.840
if you believe in the right to bear arms or you oppose abortion, there is no place for you in New York
00:08:28.960
State. You should leave. Some voices are now saying to Republicans, this is the person you should vote for.
00:08:36.560
Based on what? That he's Mario Cuomo's son? Well, most of us didn't care for Mario either.
00:08:43.040
He just seems to me like a man running because there's no other office to run for,
00:08:47.520
and because he had excess funds left over from his gubernatorial days. This is a man who was forced
00:08:54.160
to resign in the face of impeachment over claims that he'd inappropriately groped women.
00:08:59.840
The Democrat Party rejected him at the primary. That was his first and only chance to become mayor.
00:09:10.480
Instead, of course, they gravitated to the most radical Democrat candidate in New York City history,
00:09:17.120
Zorane Mamdami. Even Kathy Hochul was brought to heel. The current governor, who's thought,
00:09:23.760
generally speaking, to be somewhat more mainstream than Mamdami was forced to pay homage to the
00:09:30.160
progressive wing of the party because they are in the catbird seat. Right now, Chuck Schumer is
00:09:35.840
sweating wherever he is because if the bartender from the Bronx runs against him, he's toast and he
00:09:41.760
knows it. And Governor Hochul, who some thought would be a kind of a governor on the mayor because you
00:09:48.000
have to have state money to do anything. And governors like Nelson Rockefeller thwarted John
00:09:53.120
Lindsay. Governors have often thwarted mayoral ambitions and policies. That's not going to happen.
00:09:59.440
Kathy Hochul knows to survive a challenge to her own renomination. She's going to have to have
00:10:04.480
the stamp of approval from the progressive Marxist jihadi machine in New York City. But it was really
00:10:11.520
AOC, who I thought was who went completely insane at one of their rallies. I've never quite seen
00:10:18.720
anything like this. I love the idea of a bartender making videos telling other people that they're
00:10:23.600
stupid. Let's roll this was built by the Irish escaping famine, Italians fleeing fascism, Jews
00:10:31.680
escaping Holocaust, black Americans fleeing slavery and Jim Crow, Latinos seeking a better life,
00:10:41.120
native people standing for themselves, Asian Americans coming together in Queens, in Brooklyn,
00:10:48.560
in the Bronx, in Manhattan, in Staten Island, in this country, in a vision to build the freest,
00:10:59.280
toughest and greatest city on earth. Very interesting. Of course, what she fails to point
00:11:04.640
out is that all those people she refers to, all those ethnic groups who made this country great,
00:11:09.440
they're people who came here legally. You see, she kind of misses that part. That was a ridiculous
00:11:15.520
spectacle. But it does demonstrate that Mamdami has the momentum. You could see that he could fill
00:11:20.480
a stadium with cheering, enthusiastic supporters. I'm convinced that one of those, a third of those
00:11:25.120
people are what I call the hope and change voters. They like the vibe. They like the positioning of
00:11:33.360
that Mamdami is somehow challenging the dark monies, challenging the system. When in fact,
00:11:39.280
my good friend Sam Antaro over at White Collar Fraud has absolutely proved that Mamdami's campaign
00:11:44.480
was financed by a bunch of interlocking political action committees, 501c4s, 501c3s, non-profits,
00:11:52.160
and political parties. The whole thing is a fugazi. It is pasted together. He has more donors in Malibu
00:12:00.880
and Beverly Hills and Vail and Kennebunkport than he does in New York City. And very few small donors
00:12:12.800
until very late in the race. That's the other tip off. Once again, it demonstrates the problem for
00:12:19.280
the Democrat Party. Their party is no longer capable of nominating a moderate. When Bill Clinton was able
00:12:27.360
to swoop in and sell himself as a Southern moderate who would bring the party back from radical
00:12:33.200
McGovernism, which had ruined the party brand in the early 70s, there was a constituency for him.
00:12:41.520
There were still moderate Democrats. Try to find a conservative Democrat today. I mean,
00:12:46.160
there are some conservatives who are older and they're still registered as Democrats, but
00:12:51.600
tell me the name of a prominent public conservative Democrat. It literally doesn't exist. The best
00:12:58.640
impression you'll find is John Fetterman. He just seems more like a common sense guy to me than
00:13:03.760
any kind of doctrinaire conservative. And of course, you had the senator from West Virginia.
00:13:10.720
But he couldn't take the crap in the US Senate anymore. He left. This is the New Democrat Party.
00:13:16.800
This is the party of AOC, the party of Jasmine Crockett. This is ironically, I talk about recycling,
00:13:26.320
that pompous old windbag Bernie Sanders. He's back for another round of heavy fundraising. You
00:13:33.520
notice how Bernie used to criticize millionaires and billionaires. Now he only criticizes billionaires.
00:13:39.280
That's because Bernie and his wife became millionaires by quite legally taking media placement fees from
00:13:46.960
his two extremely well-financed but hopeless presidential campaigns. Now he never disclosed
00:13:52.640
that that he was doing that to the donors. But it is a perfect example of the hypocrisy of the left.
00:14:00.560
I'm Roger Stone. You're listening to the Stone Zone. I'll be right back.
00:14:03.920
This is the Stone Zone with Roger Stone. And he's a great, great person, Roger Stone.
00:14:20.880
This shrimp and coconut sauce is divine. What's your secret?
00:14:24.080
Goya coconut milk. How does it taste so good? It's all in that real coconut flavor and that rich,
00:14:29.680
creamy texture. What about thickeners and added sugars? None. Just smooth, coconutty goodness.
00:14:36.320
What can I make with it? From curries to sweet treats like coconut flan? The possibilities are endless.
00:14:42.720
Goya coconut milk. Take your cooking to the next level. No question about it. Find it in the Goya
00:14:47.280
section of your local grocery store. If it's Goya, it has to be good.
00:14:50.800
This is the Stone Zone. Now, get him a zone. It's the Stone Zone.
00:15:08.320
A man who's gone through hell, but he's kept going and he's smart and he's strong and people love him.
00:15:15.360
Not everybody, but people love him and respect him. Roger Stone. Where's Roger Stone?
00:15:20.000
I'm still reeling from that AOC speech. I mean, if this woman's IQ is one point lower,
00:15:29.040
you'd have to water her like a plant. There may be an answer here because it's very hard for me to
00:15:34.400
just accept the fact that this long after 9-11, we're about to elect a mayor who embraces the ideology
00:15:44.560
of those who were told attacked the World Trade Center that day.
00:15:49.520
This is the once great Democrat Party of John Kennedy and Harry Truman
00:15:53.600
no longer has an anti-communist wing. There's been a mass exodus and a deep change in the demographics in New York City.
00:16:02.560
Less than a third of voters today are Catholic. Catholics once dominated the New York Democrat primary.
00:16:08.480
Twenty-seven percent of the people are white. Twenty-three percent of voters are Hispanic.
00:16:15.440
There's been massive changes in the makeup of the city.
00:16:18.800
But I don't think that foreign-born hostiles who are openly anti-American, like Ilhan Omar or Zoran McDami,
00:16:30.720
both of whom there's evidence of which lied on their forms to enter the country and become a citizen,
00:16:37.600
can run for office and wield power to destroy our country. I think it's ridiculous.
00:16:41.120
The founding fathers would never have stood for this. House Republicans may have a solution that
00:16:46.000
would deport the likes of Mamdami and Omar so they would not have to deal with them anymore.
00:16:51.200
Congressman Randy Fine is demanding the feds review every naturalization of the past 30 years,
00:16:57.520
starting with Mamdami. Fine says, I just think we need to take a hard look at how these folks have
00:17:02.240
became citizens. And if there is any fraud or any violation of the rules, we need to denaturalize and
00:17:08.640
deport. There is a legal argument to be made that if you have advocated for the violent overthrow of
00:17:13.920
the U.S. government, that that alone would make you ineligible to enter the country and become
00:17:18.960
a citizen. I know there's a lot of us. I certainly am in this group. We're very,
00:17:23.520
very concerned about, as the president calls them, the enemy within. People who come to this country
00:17:28.960
become citizens only to try to destroy it. Congressman Fine is being joined by Congressman
00:17:35.040
Andy Ogles of Tennessee, who was pushed for a DOJ investigation of Zoram Mamdami specifically.
00:17:43.120
Ogles believes that Mamdami died on, lied on his sworn statement as he became a naturalized citizen
00:17:49.120
back in 2018. That's when he first joined the Democrat Socialists of America, a known
00:17:55.120
Communist Front organization. It's interesting, if you go back and look at old videos, Mamdami had a very
00:18:00.320
thick accent. Must have taken a lot of training and practice to lose that accent, but he's done.
00:18:05.760
So I wonder whether he is a confection like Barack Obama, created by a powerful Marxist clique
00:18:15.200
of globalists in the background pulling the strings and writing the checks. Sam Antar has proven
00:18:21.120
that the checks are coming from the radical left. I'm Roger Stone. We're in the Stone Zone. We'll talk
00:18:26.240
about more on the other side. At Desjardins, we speak business. We speak startup funding and
00:18:34.320
comprehensive game plans. We've mastered made-to-measure growth and expansion advice, and we can talk your
00:18:39.920
ear off about transferring your business when the time comes. Because at Desjardins Business, we speak
00:18:45.200
the same language you do, business. So join the more than 400,000 Canadian entrepreneurs who already count
00:18:51.840
on us and contact Desjardins today. We'd love to talk business.
00:19:09.280
This is the Stone Zone. Now, get him a zone. It's the Stone Zone. A man who's gone through hell, but he's
00:19:18.320
kept going, and he's smart, and he's strong, and people love him. Not everybody, but people love
00:19:24.080
him and respect him. Roger Stone. Where's Roger Stone?
00:19:30.240
And we're back in the Stone Zone. There's very good news recently for both the United States
00:19:34.960
and bad news for the Communist Chinese Party when in a shocking, I'm not sure what you can call it,
00:19:45.200
in a coup in Japan in their parliament where the Liberal Democratic Party, which despite its name
00:19:53.440
is the more conservative two parties, partnered with the Libertarian-oriented Innovation Party to
00:19:59.840
elect a new woman prime minister who is pro-Western, who's pro-US, who's pro-Trump, and who is
00:20:09.120
opposed to illegal immigration in Japan, having seen what it's done to other nations. She also
00:20:15.040
takes a hard line against enormous pressure from the Communist Chinese. It was thought that the
00:20:20.400
Communist Chinese has infiltrated Japan's current left-wing government. You'll recall that Donald
00:20:28.080
Trump was great friends with former Prime Minister Shinto Abe, who was assassinated by these very
00:20:34.480
pro-Chinese dark left forces when he was running in the election there. President Trump scheduled
00:20:43.200
now to meet with Prime Minister Takachi. She's not only a libertarian and a conservative, she is also a
00:20:54.560
heavy metal drummer, as well as being the youngest prime minister and the first prime minister for the
00:21:01.680
country. This is very, very good news for the United States. China is rich in both gold reserves and
00:21:08.800
they have access, it's a long story, but they have access to rare earth minerals. The President has
00:21:14.160
laid down the gauntlet with the Chinese on rare earth minerals. The Congress Chinese were going around
00:21:18.480
the world, South America, Central America, Asia, Eastern Europe, buying up control of all of these
00:21:24.960
essential rare earth minerals that we need to make things like batteries and all kinds of other
00:21:29.920
products. The idea was to get a stranglehold on that market. And of course, the United States wasn't even
00:21:35.760
competing. The President announced a major initiative to get competitive and to take back
00:21:41.600
these markets. Vietnam, for example, has an enormous rare earth mineral component that the Chinese do not
00:21:49.200
control. And again, the Japanese also have these rights. So it's very good news. President Trump also closed deals with
00:21:57.360
several other Asian companies, which really puts pressure on President Xi Ping. Shortly after his
00:22:04.720
trade talks, Trump announced the closed deals with with Malaysia and Cambodia. And it also came to terms
00:22:12.800
on trade pacts with Thailand, as well as Vietnam. The four countries, which are part of an 11 member
00:22:19.680
regional trade group known as the Association of South Asian nations, ASEAN, are offering to give
00:22:27.600
the United States goods and services preferential status in their countries to get access to their
00:22:33.760
markets, as well as increasing purchases of American agricultural products, aircraft and other entry
00:22:40.480
products. See, Donald Trump always saw trade as a two way street. He wanted policies that were good for us,
00:22:46.400
but also good for our trading partners. Now we finally have somebody who understands that.
00:22:52.320
These nations also announced that they will cooperate with the Trump administration regarding
00:22:57.600
export controls, economic sanctions, access to these rare earth minerals we spoke about.
00:23:03.520
This meeting with Takachi, who is very definitely an immigration restrictionist and a nationalist,
00:23:10.240
is really good news for the president. He will have friends once again in control in Japan. At the same
00:23:20.800
time, the president announced an extended truce between Thailand and Cambodia. It was only months
00:23:27.120
after President Trump brokered a peace deal between those two countries, showing his diplomatic chops. The
00:23:34.880
president is building goodwill on the continent of Asia, and that's putting Chairman Xi and the Chinese
00:23:41.280
under pressure. The president has understood from the beginning that the real challenge to our country was
00:23:47.600
not Russia, Russia, Russia. Don't get me wrong, the Russians are not sweethearts. He is a brutal dictator
00:23:54.320
who restricts human rights. But the real danger, those who are infiltrating our society, our businesses,
00:24:03.520
academia, buying up blue chip American brands, the nation that has its own police stations across the
00:24:13.360
United States where they theoretically spy only on their own Chinese nationals who are here in the country,
00:24:18.960
countries. But in fact, they're spying on us. For those who think that Cuba stopped posing a danger
00:24:23.840
to this country when they lost their heavy Soviet subsidization, don't understand the Chinese have
00:24:29.600
really stepped into that brutal rogue nation and taken the place of the Chinese. Cuba is the largest
00:24:35.840
spy station probably in this hemisphere spying on America with all kinds of sophisticated weaponry.
00:24:43.200
Joe Biden didn't understand this or more precisely, perhaps all those big payments he got from China
00:24:49.520
to his son and other members of his family caused him to look in the other direction.
00:24:55.200
This is what I think is so great about Marco Rubio and Donald Trump and Tulsi Gabbard. The foreign policy
00:25:01.840
team here understands that the dangers to this country are communism in this hemisphere and communism in
00:25:08.720
Asia as well as communism in Eastern Europe. But don't tell me the war in Ukraine is about democracy
00:25:18.240
because Zelensky hasn't had an election in years. He keeps suspending them. Why? Well, because he knows
00:25:23.840
that he would lose and he can't even account for the hundreds of billions of dollars that we've already
00:25:29.760
sent him. Now, it is true that much of that spending gets cycled back to the United States to go into the
00:25:34.560
pockets of giant defense contractors who are then shipping those weapons to Ukraine. It's time for
00:25:41.920
this grift to end. We would never be in this war situation if Joe Biden and his State Department did not
00:25:50.960
try to force Ukraine into NATO. You see, when East and West Germany were reunified and the Russians
00:25:59.680
acquiesced in that we, in return, agreed to the Russians that we would not push Ukraine on their
00:26:06.000
border into NATO. They found that threatening. I'll tell you what they find more threatening. The idea of
00:26:13.200
NATO-owned but US-financed missiles on the ground in Ukraine pointed at Mother Russia.
00:26:20.960
Russia. How is that different than the way President John F. Kennedy felt when the Russians
00:26:26.880
mounted offensive missiles in Cuba in 1962? And thanks to the reporting, interestingly, of Max Blumenthal,
00:26:38.000
son of Sidney Blumenthal, one of the master architects of the Russian collusion hoax, whose name rarely comes
00:26:44.320
up, but he is the eminence grease to Hillary Clinton. He is the dark master of the entire Russian collusion
00:26:52.480
hoax and Hillary's handling of it. His son Max is a left progressive but basically honest reporter who's
00:27:02.960
demonstrated that the silos in which they drop these missiles are already built in Ukraine and NATO has paid
00:27:12.000
for them. Meanwhile, the NATO nations who don't want to write bigger checks than the United States to prop up
00:27:19.280
a losing war continue to dither and delay. That's because there's an enormous pot of money coming through
00:27:27.680
the EU that they get to split up theoretically for the modernization of their defenses, which is a clever
00:27:37.040
way to say they're going to be stealing most of it. So therefore it is in their interest to try to stall
00:27:43.920
any real peace deal as President Donald Trump continues to try to bring the two parties together.
00:27:50.080
We are all obviously disappointed that the President's trip to Budapest, which he hopefully
00:27:56.480
announced, seems to have gotten off the rails. These are delicate negotiations and Donald Trump will
00:28:03.040
call the meeting when he thinks he has everything lined up and everybody's where he wants them to
00:28:07.280
be. I think this is just conjecture on my part, but I think as he's trying to negotiate this,
00:28:12.480
he has gotten to the point where he has, say, Putin where he needs him, and then he goes to Zelensky.
00:28:18.960
Once he gets Zelensky on board, he finds out that Putin is no longer on board, has new demands.
00:28:23.600
This is a conjecture on my part, but he is the consummate dealmaker. I've read the art of the deal.
00:28:28.480
I was working for him when he published it, and I think that he continues to be hopeful. He plays
00:28:34.800
all kinds of games. I mean, look, when the President said just randomly in a tweet,
00:28:40.800
maybe I'll just give Ukraine anything they want. I'll just give them anything they want. They can
00:28:44.560
bomb anybody they want. That was a tactic. That's not his new position. That's a tactic.
00:28:49.520
He was sending a message to Vladimir Putin that it was time to come to the table and quit screwing
00:28:54.480
around and wrap this up. The President finds the killing, the dying, to be really a problem. Too
00:29:01.600
many people have died in a completely unnecessary war. Joe Biden himself, as President, blurted out
00:29:09.840
very early before this war began that he would have been willing to give the Russians the Donbass
00:29:16.000
in return for a pledge of no war. So that deal could have been made, but it wasn't made because Joe Biden
00:29:21.600
and his friends profit from this war, as do their NATO patrons. It is interesting to watch out.
00:29:30.160
Meanwhile, Gavin Newsom, this guy is unbelievable. He's got great hair. It's the only thing you can
00:29:35.280
actually say. They've got a couple of presidential candidates here are real beauties. J.B. Pritzker.
00:29:43.440
I met this guy on the court of 31st, 32nd, and 33rd Street. This guy is so fat, he's got his own zip code.
00:29:51.600
This is true. He's a billionaire who stormed his way, bought the governorship in Illinois.
00:29:57.120
He has weaponized the system in Chicago, where he teamed up with Mayor Brandon Johnson, and they
00:30:05.120
ordered the Chicago Police Department not to come to the assistance of ICE agents who may be under attack
00:30:12.400
or endangered by illegal immigrants, for which I believe J.B. Pritzker and Brandon Johnson will
00:30:19.120
ultimately have legal liability if any of those ICE agents are injured or killed. That's how desperate
00:30:26.800
they are to make their political points. I watched J.B. Pritzker on TV trying to explain why the statistics
00:30:34.720
that show that Chicago is indeed the murder capper of the world aren't true. He says they're not true
00:30:41.200
because he says so. It's the strangest thing I've ever seen. And then you have Gavin Newsom,
00:30:46.400
who really has to reinvent himself. So immediately after the election, after Trump was elected,
00:30:51.920
he started a new podcast, and suddenly he's got guests like Steve Bannon and others on the right.
00:30:59.040
It looked like he was going to try to develop some new centrist sensibility. Now his platform is
00:31:05.440
completely and totally, I hate Donald Trump. He cannot talk about his record. Otherwise,
00:31:10.560
the question would be kind of like Michael Dukakis when he ran for president. Will Gavin Newsom do for
00:31:16.240
America what he's done for California? California is the world's biggest open sewer. They've taken what was a
00:31:23.360
once beautiful country, and it is awash with vagrants, with criminals, with drug addiction,
00:31:29.040
with homelessness, with horrific crime rates, with oppressively heavy taxes. He is a failure as a
00:31:38.720
governor, but it's a one-party state. And although Donald Trump performed much, much better there in
00:31:44.480
the most recent election than he had previously, Gavin Newsom somehow feels anointed. Now he is a
00:31:50.640
getty. He has enormous personal wealth, very storied and a very colorful history with he and his wife,
00:31:58.320
and his path to the mayor's office first, and then his path to the governorship. I don't think
00:32:09.040
that he makes it, frankly. He may even not be radical enough for their party, but his problem is quite
00:32:16.800
obviously Kamala Harris. Now she said late Friday she was not done yet. This is very, very bad news from
00:32:23.520
Gavin Newsom. Why? Well, first of all, they suck out of the same well. That well of donors, that well
00:32:29.520
of voters in California, they share a common political base. That will not work for the governor.
00:32:37.840
Kamala Harris just spent millions and millions and millions of borrowed money advertising herself. Even
00:32:45.520
the polling among Democrat primary voters showed that they continue, now these are the most radical
00:32:51.360
active Democrats, they continue to have a positive view of her. And most of the objective polling I've seen
00:32:57.440
shows that she, if she ran, she would lead the field. I think she sidestepped a giant mistake. She thought
00:33:03.840
very hard about running for governor. She never really wanted to be governor. She wants to be
00:33:07.680
president. This is a mistake that Richard Nixon made in 1962, and he lost, because he never really
00:33:13.120
wanted to be governor. It had the inadvertent benefit of keeping him out of the line of fire in 1964,
00:33:19.040
after John Kennedy was killed and Lyndon Johnson, who nobody was going to be, became the nominee. That
00:33:24.240
was a race that Nixon wanted to pass up, and he did. He had hoped to sit it out in the governor's
00:33:28.880
mansion in Sacramento, but he ended up sitting it out at a law firm in New York City, and he would
00:33:34.160
still go on to become president of the United States in the second greatest political comeback
00:33:39.280
in American political history. That moniker belonging to one Donald John Trump of New York,
00:33:46.960
who most improbably staged the single greatest comeback in American history, and now has set about
00:33:53.920
bringing America a golden age of peace, prosperity, security, justice, and law and order.
00:34:01.600
You're listening to this. Roger Stone on The Roger Stone Show. We'll be right back.
00:34:23.920
This is The Stone Zone. Now, get in the zone. It's The Stone Zone.
00:34:43.200
A man who's gone through hell, but he's kept going, and he's smart, and he's strong, and people love him.
00:34:50.560
Not everybody, but people love him and respect him. Roger Stone. Where's Roger Stone?
00:34:58.320
And you're back in The Stone Zone. Now, here's a story that doesn't surprise me. Politico has a
00:35:05.280
reporter who's being accused of being a spy for the Chinese. Politico, just to clear this up, is not a
00:35:11.040
journalistic outpost or an attempt at fair, reasonable. It's a propaganda front for the
00:35:18.480
radical left. Virtually everything they write is either wrong, incorrect, or badly tilted against
00:35:25.200
anything that has to do with Republicans, Donald Trump, or making America great again. Candidly,
00:35:30.480
I don't get my news from Politico for the same reason I don't eat out of the toilet. But it turns out
00:35:35.520
that a Politico reporter stationed in Brussels to cover the European Union is now being accused by
00:35:41.440
European intelligence services of using his position to target government bureaucrats in
00:35:46.880
Brussels. The reporter allegedly used sexual advances, commonly referred to as honeypotting,
00:35:53.680
in an attempt to influence officials and gain intelligence from them on behalf of the Chinese.
00:35:58.880
It should come to no surprise at all that the fake news would be a great place for a Chinese
00:36:03.440
spy to come in and set up shop. These entities hate America anyway. They love DEI, so they will
00:36:11.040
roll out the red carpet in the name of so-called diversity. You say you're from China, they say no
00:36:16.800
problem. It would be racist and big to have any suspicions about this reporter. So go ahead, have
00:36:22.800
access to the world's most powerful people. Wear our credentials and get in with all the people you've
00:36:27.520
been told to spy on. Just another reason why we need to ignore the fake news altogether and look at
00:36:34.240
alternative sources of news like terrestrial radio and the internet. Just another reason to recognize that
00:36:42.480
the big television networks, the famous newspapers, the New York Times, the Washington Post,
00:36:49.360
the reporters from both of those publications got Pulitzer Prizes for their incredible investigative
00:36:55.360
reporting on the Russian collusion hoax that we now know was a total and complete fraud. Should
00:37:00.320
those reporters not give back those prizes? I think they should. They are so completely exposed that it is
00:37:09.840
extraordinary. Now you see, according to unpublished notes regarding Mike Pence, he was called a wimp,
00:37:18.000
evidently, several times in a phone call with President Trump in 2016, pardon me, in 2021,
00:37:25.040
actually on January 6th. These notes are compiled and will be released in a book by ABC's Jonathan
00:37:31.280
Carl, certainly no Trump supporter or backer. He's entitled Retribution, Donald Trump for the Campaign
00:37:38.320
that Changed America. The only retribution that I see are the attempts by Donald Trump and his,
00:37:45.120
presumably his, presumably his Justice Department, to hold those responsible for the gross violations
00:37:52.800
of U.S. law and the Constitution that involved the Russian collusion hoax, the two phony impeachments,
00:37:58.560
the fake documents case which they raided his home in Mar-a-Lago, the tsunami of lawfare against
00:38:06.400
him in New York and in New York County and three different courtrooms, the coordination with
00:38:12.960
prosecutors in Georgia and Nevada and Arizona to destroy him. And yet, and yet, through divine
00:38:21.040
intervention and sheer guts and unbridled energy, Donald Trump refused to give up the dream that he
00:38:28.640
would return to make America great again. And he beat these people and now he's exposing their crimes.
00:38:35.280
The left screams, oh, you know, this is retribution. This is all based on revenge. No. If there is
00:38:41.200
evidence against you, as there is, I believe, in the case of Letitia James or Adam Schiff or former FBI
00:38:47.680
director James Comey, you should be prosecuted. It's not about revenge and retribution. It's about
00:38:53.440
accountability and justice. And we pray for that every single day. Thank you for joining us today on
00:38:59.120
the Stone Zone. I'm Roger Stone. Until tomorrow, God bless you, and Godspeed.
