The StoneZONE with Roger Stone - Trump Invades The South Bronx – Tina Forte Enters The StoneZONE w⧸ Roger Stone!

00:00:00.000 The Stone Zone, with legendary Republican strategist and political icon and pundit Roger Stone.

00:00:12.360 Stone has served as a senior campaign aide to three Republican presidents.

00:00:16.700 He is a New York Times bestselling author and a longtime friend and advisor of President Donald Trump.

00:00:22.300 As an outspoken libertarian, Stone has appeared on thousands of broadcasts,

00:00:26.300 spoken at countless venues, and lectured before the prestigious Oxford Political Union and the Cambridge Union Society.

00:00:33.300 Due to his four-plus decades in the political and cultural arena, Stone has become a pop culture icon.

00:00:38.660 And now, here's your host, Roger Stone.

00:00:45.920 Welcome. I'm Roger Stone, and yes, you are back in the Stone Zone.

00:00:50.940 Today is a historic day because President Donald Trump takes his campaign to the South Bronx.

00:00:59.640 That's right, going to the heart of opposition territory.

00:01:03.860 The Bronx is one of the five boroughs of New York City.

00:01:08.200 Voter registration there is probably approximately 80 percent Democratic.

00:01:13.180 And, of course, it is overwhelmingly African-American and Hispanic.

00:01:17.700 This is a departure from normal politics, but nothing about our politics is normal today.

00:01:25.500 The last presidential candidate to take his campaign to the South Bronx was President Ronald Reagan.

00:01:33.840 I was there that day working on the Reagan staff and involved in the planning and execution of that event.

00:01:41.020 To join us today, there he is, the Gipper himself, to join us today to talk about this is someone who understands the area well.

00:01:52.240 Tina Forte is the Republican and Conservative Party nominee against AOC, the socialist bartender member of Congress.

00:02:02.900 But first, let me bring in my co-host, Troy Smith, the editor-in-chief of Slingshot.news.

00:02:11.900 Roger, as always, historic day here in the Stone Zone. Happy to be here.

00:02:15.980 Excellent. Let's get right to our superstar guest.

00:02:19.680 Tina Forte is a woman of enormous courage and energy.

00:02:25.280 She is a longtime resident and community activist in the Bronx.

00:02:29.660 She ran against AOC two years ago.

00:02:34.440 The Republican Party leaders weren't smart enough to see that she was, from the beginning, the superior candidate.

00:02:42.460 And now, two years later, she is the nominee of both the Republican and the Conservative parties.

00:02:50.420 She's an exceptional candidate in a very tough and uphill race.

00:02:56.680 But, you know, with Jesus Christ, all things are popular, are possible.

00:03:01.660 Tina Forte joins us now. 1.00

00:03:05.180 Hi, thank you for having me.

00:03:07.140 Sorry I'm in the car, but I was stuck in the rainstorm on my way down to the rally.

00:03:12.400 The car is just fine.

00:03:14.260 We're just happy to have you.

00:03:16.200 I hear it's raining very, very hard there.

00:03:19.260 I hope that doesn't put a damper on this event.

00:03:23.860 This is going to be a little different, as I understand it, than other Trump events.

00:03:28.120 It's not like his set-piece rally where there's a VIP section and they'll be not expedited.

00:03:35.640 This is more like an old-fashioned pop-up campaign event, heavy, heavy security.

00:03:42.220 I see that online, AOC and her allies are trying to rally counter-protesters.

00:03:48.440 That's fine.

00:03:49.140 It's America.

00:03:50.240 We still have the First Amendment, at least for the time being.

00:03:54.980 So, Tina, you have to be very excited.

00:03:57.660 The president of the United States, the former president and next president, coming to your congressional district.

00:04:03.920 Because he's a president for the people.

00:04:06.400 He's for the people.

00:04:07.500 He's not afraid to come to the South Bronx.

00:04:09.800 He loves the people.

00:04:10.940 That's what makes him different than all the rest.

00:04:13.580 And I am for the people.

00:04:15.360 AOC will only step foot in that district to have a counter-protest if she even shows up. 1.00

00:04:20.900 She'll send paid agitators there to show up for her. 1.00

00:04:24.560 That's the difference.

00:04:25.380 The people of the South Bronx, I walked it with the banner just last weekend.

00:04:29.840 They don't want welfare.

00:04:31.300 They want jobs.

00:04:32.720 They want safety.

00:04:33.660 They want trade schools for their children.

00:04:36.700 They want the American dream.

00:04:38.020 The American dream that's now being given away to illegal immigrants in this district. 1.00

00:04:43.420 And for Donald Trump to come here shows a very, very strong statement across this whole election, coming to a very blue area.

00:04:52.420 A blue area, I feel, could swing red because of the momentum we have, because of the failure of Joe Biden and the rest of the left that are in office right now, destroying our country from within.

00:05:05.180 What Tina says is absolutely true.

00:05:08.140 If you look at the polling, Donald Trump is making historic inroads in urban areas where Republicans traditionally have not fared well.

00:05:18.700 I think it is a manifestation of the failure of Joe Biden's policies, particularly in the area of affordable housing, particularly in the area of job opportunities.

00:05:32.160 Americans are seeing these opportunities, these housing possibilities going to illegals. 0.93

00:05:40.940 I don't think it is sitting well.

00:05:43.540 Say anything you want about Donald Trump.

00:05:45.300 During his presidency, we had unprecedented peace and prosperity.

00:05:50.720 Under Joe Biden, we've had nothing like that.

00:05:54.220 Troy, do you have a question for our special guest?

00:05:58.000 Absolutely.

00:05:58.680 We talked a little bit yesterday about Joe Biden kind of struggling with the black vote, and he's actually doing NAACP speeches now.

00:06:05.780 They're kind of grabbing or grasping at straws, I should say.

00:06:08.720 Are you seeing that on the ground there in New York, people really turning against the Biden administration?

00:06:14.000 Yes, I do.

00:06:15.300 Everywhere I go, and this is from whether it's outside the courthouse, whether it's in the South Bronx, whether it's in Queens, you see Black Lives MAGA. 0.78

00:06:25.100 M-A-G-A. 1.00

00:06:26.580 That's all you see. 0.99

00:06:27.900 Blacks for Trump. 0.97

00:06:29.240 Black Lives MAGA. 0.99

00:06:30.600 They are so for the president.

00:06:32.160 If you see every interview when people are walking through the streets questioning or asking tough questions, who do you like?

00:06:38.720 They're all saying Trump.

00:06:40.580 Trump.

00:06:41.020 Because under Trump, we were able to afford food.

00:06:44.080 They had jobs.

00:06:45.400 They had the American dream.

00:06:47.060 They're losing it now.

00:06:48.080 They see that they were being used.

00:06:49.860 They're dumbing them down.

00:06:51.520 That was Kathy Hochul.

00:06:52.820 They're dumbing down the minorities. 0.99

00:06:54.760 And they're lifting up their illegal immigrants. 0.98

00:06:58.360 They're lifting up their policies, which are so radical.

00:07:02.080 AOC is so radical.

00:07:03.680 Joe Biden's just a disaster.

00:07:05.560 And what's going on, you really see a really major turn.

00:07:09.200 Like I said, I walked to South Bronx.

00:07:11.100 I didn't have security with me or Secret Service with me or anyone protecting me.

00:07:15.800 The people loved me.

00:07:17.080 They were cheering me on when I was walking with Ruben Diaz, who's a Democrat, who was from the South Bronx, and who endorsed me.

00:07:24.680 And he's speaking tonight at President Trump's rally.

00:07:28.780 Tina, Mayor Eric Adams and his police department insist that based on statistics that they produce, that crime in New York City is down.

00:07:41.340 Well, they don't arrest anyone.

00:07:43.100 They don't arrest anybody.

00:07:44.220 Of course they're going to say that.

00:07:45.880 They're not arresting people.

00:07:48.580 Very interesting.

00:07:49.980 So, yeah, I guess if you commit a crime, but then you're not arrested, you don't go into the statistics.

00:07:56.280 It actually makes perfect sense.

00:07:58.980 Yes.

00:07:59.780 My friend Sal Greco is a distinguished former New York police officer, 14 years service to the people of New York, has done an in-depth analysis.

00:08:09.000 He actually believes that they're still manipulating the numbers despite their soft-on-crime policies.

00:08:16.680 Soft-on-crime.

00:08:17.800 Yeah.

00:08:17.940 The New York state system of putting violent criminals right back out on the street within hours of their being arraigned and released was obviously responsible recently for the death of a New York City police officer who was shot and killed by a man who had 21 prior arrests.

00:08:37.680 But the New York system could not keep this guy in jail.

00:08:40.820 Well, I think President Trump's going to the officer's wake was extraordinarily symbolic.

00:08:47.840 Trump is the law and order candidate.

00:08:50.800 Let's talk about your campaign, Tina, because I admire people who get in the arena.

00:08:58.880 And I'm sure that when you first started thinking about this, even two years ago, people told you, oh, come on, Tina, it's impossible.

00:09:08.420 Well, nothing's impossible.

00:09:10.520 I was very impressed with how hard you worked two years ago.

00:09:14.340 I was very impressed how you developed as a candidate and how articulate you were on the issues.

00:09:21.180 This is your year.

00:09:22.540 I just have a feeling that this is your year.

00:09:25.740 Tell us how it's going.

00:09:27.420 It's going very well.

00:09:29.480 As you know, the redistricting actually helped me.

00:09:32.880 Co-op city, which is out of the five boroughs, the highest voter turnout for Democrats.

00:09:39.820 That's no longer in my district.

00:09:42.180 I picked up the South Bronx.

00:09:44.500 The South Bronx, as you see, turned red, thanks to Ruben Diaz, thanks to Joe Biden, turning everyone red because of his failed policies.

00:09:54.140 Kathy Hochul, who's just dumbing down everyone in the Bronx and across the border of New York. 1.00

00:09:59.720 New York, to me, is ground zero.

00:10:02.000 The battle is here.

00:10:03.800 New York right now is under a one-party rule.

00:10:06.240 It's destroying us.

00:10:07.860 It's destroying us, and the people see it.

00:10:09.520 And I am the person who does like to walk out and does like to talk to constituents and store owners, and I am for the people.

00:10:17.880 I'm a regular person.

00:10:19.320 I'm America first, and I'm very relatable to the people.

00:10:22.780 When I walk out, they love me.

00:10:24.520 They hug me.

00:10:25.040 They cry to me.

00:10:25.740 They tell me what's bothering them, and I try and explain to them and give them comfort and tell them, I'm for you.

00:10:31.980 Give me a shot.

00:10:33.040 What do you have to lose by giving me a shot? 1.00

00:10:35.900 You can fire me in two years.

00:10:37.860 Give me a chance to prove to you that I can reverse a lot of what's going on.

00:10:42.820 That's very, very encouraging.

00:10:46.580 Plus, of course, I'd like to see yet another Italian-American in Congress.

00:10:51.380 If you're just tuning in, folks, we're talking to Tina Forte.

00:10:54.520 She's running for Congress against AOC, the socialist communist bartender who represents the Bronx, although from what I hear, she's rarely there now.

00:11:05.680 She's really become more of a Washington swamp creature.

00:11:09.140 We're going to cut to a quick commercial break.

00:11:11.680 When we come back, we're going to tell you how you can help Tina Forte because politics is expensive. 1.00

00:11:18.080 Running a campaign when you don't have the support of all the left-wing special interests or just the special interests is extraordinarily difficult.

00:11:29.100 Tina's done an excellent job of raising money, but most of it's come from small, low-dollar donors who give multiple times.

00:11:37.220 We're going to tell you how you can help Tina in her uphill fight against AOC when we come back after this message from our sponsors.

00:11:46.300 WVWFoundation.com for your support.

00:11:55.760 We need more monthly supporters, folks.

00:11:58.360 We have some people, we got a notification from someone today saying,

00:12:01.540 I love supporting you guys, but I'm now going into retirement, can't afford to support you.

00:12:06.120 Well, I can understand that.

00:12:07.420 Folks going into retirement on a fixed income with all the cost of inflation going up.

00:12:11.880 So we are losing donors who want to keep supporting us, but due to the cost of living, they can't.

00:12:19.640 So we not only need to add donors, we need to make up for the donors we're losing who now find themselves retiring on a fixed income or already retired,

00:12:30.800 but on a fixed income with the cost of inflation going up.

00:12:33.560 And they have to cut.

00:12:34.840 I totally get it.

00:12:35.780 So we're really needing more supporters, folks.

00:12:39.020 I can't tell you how important this is.

00:12:41.860 Think of us as your conservative Christian worldview alternative to NPR, National Public Radio, National Public Television.

00:12:48.080 So please make a contribution, occasional or sign up for an automatic contribution, $5, $10 a month, whatever you can afford.

00:12:55.540 You can set that up at WVWFoundation.com.

00:13:01.120 WVWFoundation.com.

00:13:03.000 A lot of people are having great success with a weight management program with Bellatrim, but it's just a tool.

00:13:10.820 In terms of ingredients, Chromex or chromium picolini improves the actions of insulin.

00:13:16.480 So you have better glucose management.

00:13:18.820 And in addition, it promotes fatty utilization.

00:13:22.120 Fat utilization or fat burning is also a feature of metabolite, which are two botanicals that stimulate a switch called AMP kinase.

00:13:31.380 And so you tend to burn fat, reduce belly fat or visceral fat.

00:13:36.300 Who doesn't want that? 0.53

00:13:38.240 Metamolite has the ability to stimulate satiety or reduce those cravings.

00:13:43.200 That's really very, very important.

00:13:45.220 And it does that by raising GLP-1 levels.

00:13:48.940 In addition, we've addressed the microbiome by using prebiotics.

00:13:53.200 Healthier microbiome, better weight management.

00:14:01.380 Welcome back.

00:14:08.900 If you're just tuning in, I'm Roger Stone.

00:14:11.160 And yes, you are back in the Stone Zone.

00:14:14.020 I'm here with my co-host, Troy Smith, the editor-in-chief of Slingshot.news.

00:14:19.280 And we're interviewing Tina Forte, the Republican and Conservative Party nominee for Congress against AOC, the socialist bartender from the Bronx.

00:14:31.800 Tina will be with the president today at this incredible rally.

00:14:37.320 This really is historic.

00:14:39.340 But I think you're going to see this across the country, Tina.

00:14:41.760 I think you're going to see Trump going into Chicago, Trump going into Detroit, Trump going into Milwaukee, Trump going into Miami.

00:14:51.140 This is, I think, supported by the polling that shows that the president is making deep inroads into more traditional Democratic voting groups.

00:15:03.580 I want to get back to your campaign because, well, running for Congress is extraordinarily expensive.

00:15:11.720 You're not a millionaire.

00:15:13.540 You can't rely on some George Soros-type billionaire to stroke you a giant check.

00:15:19.940 You've got to do this the old-fashioned way.

00:15:21.780 You've got to go out and raise it.

00:15:23.080 Let's put up the graphic, if we can, for Tina's website, where folks can make a contribution.

00:15:31.820 But there you have it, tinaforteforcongress.com, tinaforteforcongress.com.

00:15:37.460 Folks, please log on and make as generous a contribution as you possibly can.

00:15:43.320 Tina is in an uphill but not hopeless fight. 0.98

00:15:46.040 And she has the courage and the energy and the spunk to beat AOC.

00:15:52.920 Before I ask Troy for his question, here's mine, and that is, Tina, do you think AOC will agree to debate you before the election?

00:16:02.400 No.

00:16:03.200 She didn't do it last time.

00:16:04.480 She won't do it this time.

00:16:06.120 AOC likes to hide. 0.98

00:16:07.760 She likes to hide. 0.83

00:16:09.020 I call her a chicken.

00:16:10.300 AOC, sea sands for chicken.

00:16:12.400 Called her out numerous times.

00:16:13.680 She won't debate me.

00:16:14.920 She won't.

00:16:15.400 Will I pull her out again? 0.72

00:16:17.400 Absolutely.

00:16:19.180 That's an insult to the voters, in my opinion.

00:16:21.580 I mean, you're the nominee of two major parties, yet she thinks it's beneath her to debate you just because she's an incumbent.

00:16:30.380 In my experience, candidates who refuse to debate really hurt themselves badly.

00:16:37.180 That becomes an issue in itself.

00:16:39.820 Troy, next question to you.

00:16:42.020 Absolutely.

00:16:43.080 Tina, I want to get your reaction.

00:16:44.440 We pulled this clip of AOC last night kind of trashing Trump's appearance in the Bronx today and let you respond here to your opponent here in the general election.

00:16:55.260 What do you think about a big Donald Trump rally in the Bronx?

00:16:58.360 I mean, I think, as you mentioned earlier, this guy is stuck in court.

00:17:05.420 And let's be very clear about the fact that he is stuck in court over hush money payments in order to quiet the story about him having sex with Stormy Daniels in the lead-up to the election.

00:17:23.200 And I think that because he is stuck on so many charges around fraud and these payments, he is stuck in a pretty tight radius of where he can go.

00:17:35.820 New York City is blue, New York City is blue, Brooklyn is blue, Queens is blue, the Bronx is blue, and he's got nowhere to go.

00:17:44.700 And so he's decided to come to the South Bronx.

00:17:46.680 He's broke.

00:17:47.500 He needs to pay these legal funds.

00:17:49.420 And, you know, bussing people in in order to get those donations so that he can funnel them to his legal fees is kind of his business right now.

00:17:58.300 Okay, AOC, my reaction is, you're not broke.

00:18:03.640 You're worth $29 million.

00:18:05.600 Where are you?

00:18:08.520 You don't come to the district.

00:18:10.060 At least Donald Trump is coming to the South Bronx.

00:18:12.820 At least he's coming to speak with the people.

00:18:15.120 You left the people behind once you got your seat in Congress because you're just an elitist.

00:18:20.380 You're a communist.

00:18:21.580 You don't care about the people.

00:18:23.260 That's my answer to her.

00:18:24.440 And also they weaponized, they weaponized the justice system against Donald Trump, which is a disgrace.

00:18:30.500 And he's not stuck here.

00:18:31.780 He can go anywhere he wants up until Tuesday when he has to appear back in court.

00:18:36.120 But he chose to come to the South Bronx because he's for the people.

00:18:40.620 Unlike you, Alexandria, donde esta?

00:18:43.580 Where are you?

00:18:45.220 Very good point.

00:18:46.360 Obviously, also the claim that Donald Trump is broke is very clearly not true.

00:18:51.980 Yes.

00:18:52.300 On the other hand.

00:18:53.300 Where she is very rich right now.

00:18:54.640 And I want to know why she's so rich. 1.00

00:18:56.980 Why is she worth $29 million in her four years in Congress? 1.00

00:19:00.720 We all know why.

00:19:03.000 That raises an excellent point.

00:19:05.300 I don't know whether that is insider trading or dark money, but I think it was President Harry Truman who said,

00:19:12.140 show me a person who gets rich in politics and I'll show you a crook.

00:19:16.500 One of my favorite quotes.

00:19:17.940 And she chooses to go to the Met Gala.

00:19:21.100 She goes to the Met Gala over being in her own district.

00:19:24.860 She'll choose to go to a Met Gala over being in her own district. 0.96

00:19:28.460 And I say, fire them all and finish the wall.

00:19:32.000 Yeah, the Met Gala, for those of you who don't know, is a high society fashion show for some globalist charity.

00:19:41.000 That she can show up at in Manhattan.

00:19:44.420 Her district, well, not so much.

00:19:46.840 It's amazing to me that she's in Congress, but, you know, it is really heartening that she's not getting a free ride.

00:19:58.480 That you're out there on the streets every day challenging her on the issues.

00:20:04.040 I agree with you.

00:20:05.280 I don't think she'll debate, but I think you should keep hitting her for her refusal to debate.

00:20:11.260 It's an insult to the voters.

00:20:14.060 All right, Troy, one more question for our special guest, Tina Forte, the Republican and conservative member of Congress.

00:20:22.420 And then we're going to put up your website address one more time.

00:20:26.440 Because, well, money is the mother's milk of politics. 0.96

00:20:30.640 And we want to help your campaign as much as we can.

00:20:33.260 Troy, your question.

00:20:34.880 Tina, my question would be, one of the biggest blunders I've seen AOC make was when she attacked Amazon for wanting to bring jobs to her district. 1.00

00:20:42.980 I wanted to ask you, what's the thoughts on the ground about this?

00:20:46.740 And is it something that you would try to revive if you were elected to Congress to bring more jobs to your district?

00:20:52.960 Yes, I would.

00:20:53.980 People are not happy about that.

00:20:55.560 Because not only did you lose 25,000 Amazon jobs, but all the businesses in the area were hurt by her decision to stop that.

00:21:03.880 And I would reverse that immediately.

00:21:06.920 And ask Amazon to please come back or see if it will come back to us.

00:21:11.040 Because we need that.

00:21:12.940 Our economy is really bad.

00:21:14.240 People can't afford food.

00:21:15.920 They can't afford anything right now.

00:21:18.200 And AOC is a big part of why our district is suffering.

00:21:22.100 Because of her beliefs and her decisions.

00:21:24.600 She doesn't care about the people. 0.99

00:21:28.500 Very, very good point.

00:21:30.180 All right.

00:21:30.580 We're going to have to wrap this up.

00:21:32.820 Tina Forte on her way to see Donald Trump in his historic foray into the South Bronx.

00:21:39.260 This is a sea-changing event.

00:21:42.580 The last president, as I said earlier, to take the last Republican candidate for president to take his campaign into the South Bronx was Ronald Reagan.

00:21:51.440 By the way, he won.

00:21:53.260 So this is an omen, in my opinion.

00:21:56.120 Thanks to Tina Forte for joining us today.

00:21:59.260 We're going to put up.

00:22:00.020 There it is one more time.

00:22:01.380 Tina Forte for Congress.com.

00:22:03.360 There you see it, folks.

00:22:04.580 Please go right to the website.

00:22:06.000 Go to the website right now.

00:22:10.040 FireAOC.com.

00:22:11.640 If that's too long for you to remember, FireAOC.com.

00:22:16.380 I have a flag that says that, that I will be hanging in front of that rally today.

00:22:22.580 All right.

00:22:23.280 Great.

00:22:23.860 We will definitely push that link.

00:22:27.000 FireAOC.com, folks.

00:22:28.620 Dot com.

00:22:29.800 A shortcut.

00:22:30.540 I love it.

00:22:31.420 All right.

00:22:31.900 Tina Forte, thank you so much for joining us.

00:22:34.060 Thank you.

00:22:34.320 God bless you.

00:22:35.980 God bless you, Roger.

00:22:38.060 That is a Bronx accent, ladies and gentlemen, if you've never heard one before.

00:22:42.280 She is a valiant warrior.

00:22:45.980 She's been a friend for a number of years.

00:22:47.980 Yes, it's an uphill race, but she definitely cannot win without money, without your support.

00:22:54.700 She can't count on any special interest to help her.

00:22:57.600 She needs to count on folks like you and I.

00:23:00.200 All right, Troy, a lot going on politically here.

00:23:04.180 The defense rested its case.

00:23:08.760 I guess it was two days ago.

00:23:11.000 We will not come back to court in Manhattan until after the Memorial Day weekend in an event that will potentially roil the presidential campaign one way or another.

00:23:26.880 Talking to various lawyers, very few of the lawyers that I have talked to, looking at the political composition of the pool from which the jury was selected.

00:23:39.020 Very few of them think, despite the fact that no case whatsoever was proved against Trump, very few people I know, lawyers that is, think that he will be acquitted.

00:23:50.300 But many think there's a high probability that the jury cannot reach a verdict, that one or two or maybe more jurors refuse to find him guilty since the government has produced no case against him.

00:24:09.060 In which case, this could be the only trial that he faces in the tsunami of lawfare against him between now and the election.

00:24:18.820 So I urge everybody out there watching the show, please pray for our president.

00:24:26.960 First of all, pray for his safety.

00:24:29.780 We saw this morning where some crazy woman on Twitter was threatening to shoot and kill him at the rally today. 0.99

00:24:37.400 Happy to see that the Secret Service is on top of that. 0.68

00:24:41.240 Look, I get death threats all the time through the Twitter direct message system from people I don't know.

00:24:48.600 I report them.

00:24:49.380 I'm not sure anything happens after that.

00:24:51.460 But then I'm not a former president.

00:24:53.580 I'm not running for president.

00:24:55.960 But I pray for the president's safety.

00:24:58.960 And in this case, I pray for one sane, reasonable juror who can look at the facts and the law and realize that this is a frame job.

00:25:11.000 Well, and Roger, what I would add is I think what needs to be a takeaway, you know, we're all kind of the jury here.

00:25:17.000 And I know we're not legitimately the jury, but we're all watching this case.

00:25:20.280 And the case that the government has put together, these witnesses, these people that they've put up on the stand, I don't see how anybody could come out of this saying, OK, well, Trump's definitely guilty unless they have some kind of, you know, it's a mainstream media figure that has some kind of a political objective they're trying to reach.

00:25:39.120 But I think we need to look at this case and say, wow, you know, this is the level of the case that the government put together and any kind of respect that people have for the justice system, for, you know, these institutions that have been around for so long.

00:25:54.420 I think that's all going out the window.

00:25:56.320 And I think that this case will have the reverse effect that they want it to have and that people are not going to look at Trump differently.

00:26:02.900 They're going to look at the government and say, wow, this is the level of convicted liar who admits to stealing over $50,000 in Michael Cohen is one of their key witnesses, along with Stormy Daniels, who believes that she communicates with ghosts and is a medium in a psychic way.

00:26:19.980 I mean, this is it's one of the most laughable cases I've ever seen.

00:26:24.560 And I would add to it, I think this is going to, you know, across the country, anybody who had a little bit of shred of faith left in the justice system.

00:26:32.120 That seems to me it's going to be out the window with this case.

00:26:35.580 Well, it is a state prosecution, but I don't think it's lost on people that the number three prosecutor at the U.S. Department of Justice suddenly decided that he wanted a job with a county district attorney in Manhattan and move there to take the lead in this case.

00:26:53.320 That tells you everything you need to know.

00:26:55.960 Trump is right when he says this is Biden's case.

00:26:58.960 This is this is the case Biden is bringing against him.

00:27:02.120 We know factually that not only was a special counsel, Jack Smith has met extensively with those in the Biden White House, but Bonnie Wills, the prosecutor in Georgia, Nathan Wade, who was a prosecutor there, traveled to the White House and to the Biden Justice Department.

00:27:20.900 So did Alvin Bragg, the attorney general, Alvin Bragg, the New York County Manhattan district attorney, all of them going to the White House.

00:27:34.920 Sounds to me like a racketeering conspiracy for election interference.

00:27:40.200 Anyway, let's go to your let's go to your daily report on the political scene.

00:27:46.660 What do you got for us today?

00:27:48.720 Roger, we want to start off with something that that that was those big news yesterday.

00:27:52.840 We got tens of thousands of people on Slingshot News checking this out.

00:27:57.520 Nikki Haley announced yesterday who she will be voting for in the 2024 election.

00:28:02.100 We want to play that clip and get your thoughts on on on what Haley statement here. 0.93

00:28:06.700 And hold our enemies to account who would secure the border.

00:28:13.960 No more excuses.

00:28:15.660 A president who would support capitalism and freedom.

00:28:22.000 A president who understands we need less debt, not more debt.

00:28:27.940 Trump has not been perfect on these policies.

00:28:31.160 I've made that clear many, many times.

00:28:33.760 But Biden has been a catastrophe.

00:28:38.460 So I will be voting for Trump.

00:28:41.440 Having said that.

00:28:44.080 I stand by what I said in my suspension speech.

00:28:49.280 Trump would be smart to reach out to the millions of people who voted for me and continue to support me.

00:28:57.260 And not assume that they're just going to be with him.

00:29:01.880 And I genuinely hope he does that.

00:29:07.080 I'm not really sure.

00:29:08.140 First of all, I think that is valuable because it cuts against the narrative pushed by some on the left that there are deep cleavages in the Republican Party.

00:29:17.320 And that a substantial number of Republicans aren't going to vote for Trump.

00:29:22.360 There's a small group of never-Trumpers in the Republican Party, more than made up for by blue-collar ethnic Catholic Democrats who voted for Obama but voted for Trump in 2016.

00:29:36.980 May have strayed in some cases in 2020.

00:29:39.500 Now they realize what a gigantic mistake they've made.

00:29:42.960 They appear to be back with Trump.

00:29:45.280 Perhaps, just perhaps, this is a last-minute bid for a vice presidential nomination.

00:29:53.060 Having spoken to the president about this directly, I can tell you that Nikki Haley is not under consideration for vice president.

00:30:01.380 Today, yesterday and today, you've seen a bunch of speculation about that again.

00:30:08.440 I just don't see that in the cards.

00:30:11.200 Look, what this tells me is Nikki Haley would like to have a political future in a party that is thoroughly and completely and overwhelmingly dominated by Donald J. Trump.

00:30:23.280 And this probably ends any possibility of her having a cabinet in a future Biden administration.

00:30:31.680 I would rather have her support than not have it.

00:30:34.540 But no, folks, she's not going to be vice president. 0.76

00:30:38.560 We are going to go to a quick commercial break here.

00:30:41.440 If you're just tuning in, this is The Stone Zone.

00:30:44.160 I'm Roger Stone.

00:30:45.240 He's Troy Smith of Slingshot.News.

00:30:47.720 And, well, we'll be right back.

00:30:53.280 We've learned through the pandemic we can never be caught unprepared again.

00:31:00.740 And so many Americans, when COVID hit, they had nothing in the house.

00:31:04.440 Stores were shut down and doctors' offices were shut down.

00:31:08.380 And even if doctors prescribed drugs, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, pharmacists wouldn't fill the prescriptions.

00:31:15.160 That was a nightmare.

00:31:16.600 Now the situation is much worse.

00:31:19.080 We have these horrible supply chain problems.

00:31:21.500 In our emergency medical kit at the wellness company, we have eight prescription drugs that are all potentially life-saving.

00:31:32.360 Most people have died with COVID.

00:31:33.900 They died in the hospital because they didn't receive early treatment.

00:31:37.360 Every American family should have one of these.

00:31:40.240 I can tell you the wellness company kit is the answer.

00:31:56.100 Experts say that Russian hackers found a way to hack our utilities, and the hackers may still be in there waiting to strike.

00:32:04.100 Go after their power, go after their water, and you can bring a nation to its knees.

00:32:07.460 They're identifying targets.

00:32:09.400 They're positioning malware so they could pull the trigger when they wanted to.

00:32:14.560 Experts see the intrusion as a possible precursor to an unprecedented Russian cyberattack that could, in the event of war, devastate the U.S.

00:32:23.240 We know that China has been hacking everything they can and stealing our intellectual property. 0.98

00:32:28.660 They want to take down America's economy.

00:32:31.440 They want to take down our morale.

00:32:33.200 They understand that if they can destroy our economy, they can destroy our future.

00:32:38.520 We're at war.

00:32:39.320 Welcome back, folks.

00:33:02.000 If you're just tuning in, I'm Roger Stone, and you're back in the Stone Zone.

00:33:06.220 It's a historic day as President Donald Trump takes his campaign to the South Bronx.

00:33:13.040 The last presidential candidate from the Republican Party to do that, as I said earlier, was Ronald Reagan, who won.

00:33:21.080 By the way, I see people online saying, well, how much did that help the Bronx?

00:33:24.980 Actually, there was a period of revitalization in the Bronx during the Reagan presidency.

00:33:30.900 All of that would later disintegrate under future Democratic administrations.

00:33:36.220 But between enterprise zones and the deep tax cuts, which caused a job boom, things did actually get better and safer in the South Bronx during the Reagan presidency.

00:33:51.960 Things went downhill under his Democratic successors.

00:33:55.920 You can fact check me that.

00:33:57.500 It's a fact.

00:33:58.760 All right, Troy, back to you.

00:34:00.160 We got some big news today in the U.S. Senate that I want to get your opinion on because, you know, this is really interesting news, I think.

00:34:10.040 Rick Scott has formally announced that he will be launching a bid to become the next Senate GOP leader, trying to oust Mitch McConnell, who will be retiring from the Senate.

00:34:20.340 And we actually have a clip of Rick Scott officially entering the race, talking about some of the failures of the Republican Senate under Mitch McConnell.

00:34:28.940 When we come back from that video, I want to get your thoughts on Rick Scott's bid to replace Mitch McConnell.

00:34:34.040 Conservative voters want us to stand for something.

00:34:36.320 Stand for something.

00:34:37.300 Like, let's stand and fight over the border.

00:34:39.260 Let's stand and fight over spending.

00:34:41.220 Let's stand and fight over making sure Israel gets hoped, but we don't waste all of it.

00:34:44.880 Well, how about no more omnibus nightmare bills that you all seem to consider?

00:34:49.140 Not you.

00:34:49.580 I mean, you don't want to put those throw everything in the pot and then no one can see it for the last second.

00:34:54.600 No amendment votes.

00:34:55.700 So I did a letter to all my colleagues.

00:34:57.640 So here's what I committed.

00:34:58.420 We're not doing it anymore.

00:34:59.280 We're going to have a real appropriations process.

00:35:01.140 We're going to we're going to figure out how to balance a budget.

00:35:03.220 I balance a budget every year as governor.

00:35:04.820 We shouldn't be able to do it here.

00:35:06.180 You have to do it in your in your personal life.

00:35:09.840 Troy, I think this is very good news.

00:35:11.900 Look, I supported Rick Scott when he first ran for governor.

00:35:15.480 He was an outsider, took on the Republican establishment.

00:35:20.020 I have had my issues with him.

00:35:22.220 He voted for some red flag laws or I should say he pushed some red flag laws as governor.

00:35:27.920 I didn't particularly like, but I've really come around on him.

00:35:31.220 He's tough.

00:35:32.420 He is courageous.

00:35:35.080 He is obviously supported Donald Trump over his home state governor, Ron DeSantis.

00:35:40.980 I think he'd be a huge improvement over Mitch McConnell.

00:35:45.980 I don't see anybody else having the courage to step forward other than Rick Scott.

00:35:50.500 He's he's been a very good.

00:35:52.500 He was a very, very good governor.

00:35:55.000 He's been a good senator.

00:35:56.960 He is managed because of his own personal wealth to remain an outsider.

00:36:02.860 Rick Scott can't be bought.

00:36:04.180 Doesn't need special interest money.

00:36:06.700 I really wish him well.

00:36:08.360 I would like to see him replace Mitch McConnell, who really seems to be in bed with the Democrats on every major issue, particularly the issue of spending, which is fueling the inflation that is, you know, destroying the buying power of the dollar.

00:36:27.740 So I say bravo for Rick Scott.

00:36:30.280 I hope he is successful.

00:36:32.920 Well, and it's just important to point out that Rick Scott was also one of the only members of the Senate to travel to New York City and defend President Donald Trump.

00:36:41.300 And he was one of the earliest to do so.

00:36:42.880 Let's play the clip of Rick Scott outside of the New York City courthouse just a few days ago.

00:36:47.460 Now, let's look at who involved, who's involved in doing this.

00:36:51.320 The lead prosecutor was the number three person that Biden, the Biden Justice Department.

00:36:57.360 The judge's daughter is a political operative and raises money for Democrats.

00:37:03.460 You've got the lead prosecutor's wife is a significant donor to Democrats and I think to Biden.

00:37:12.320 So this is just a bunch of Democrats saying, we want to make sure that Donald Trump can't talk.

00:37:20.000 You know, they've got a gag order. 1.00

00:37:21.040 So he can't go campaign.

00:37:23.700 They've got him holed up in a courtroom.

00:37:27.540 So Joe Biden go campaign, but Donald Trump can't.

00:37:32.600 This has to stop.

00:37:35.280 Look, we know that President Biden can't win this election fair and square.

00:37:39.900 He has nothing to run on.

00:37:42.100 And we know President Trump has a record.

00:37:45.700 He secured the border.

00:37:47.020 He had a great economy.

00:37:48.100 We were warned at war.

00:37:49.060 So that's why this is happening.

00:37:50.680 Joe Biden knows and DePrette knows that he cannot win.

00:37:54.380 Joe Biden cannot win this election.

00:37:56.020 I'm glad to answer any questions.

00:37:58.480 Very, very forthright statement by Senator Rick Scott.

00:38:03.180 Right on all of those key points.

00:38:06.420 Look, as I said, I've come around on Rick Scott.

00:38:08.600 I've had some differences with him.

00:38:10.460 But as I say, he was an excellent governor.

00:38:13.180 I think he's doing an excellent job as U.S. senator for our home state of Florida.

00:38:17.480 He will get overwhelmingly, I think, comfortably reelected this year.

00:38:23.600 And, you know, I really wish him well in his Senate majority bid.

00:38:29.360 OK, Troy, what else you got?

00:38:30.540 Well, Roger, I'm really interested to get your thoughts on this because we did see that RFK Jr., very early on in his campaign, when he announced that he would be an independent candidate, started accepting donations in crypto.

00:38:43.800 And that was a big headline.

00:38:46.420 But as we know, RFK Jr. is not a nominee for a major party.

00:38:50.720 So just a few days ago, President Donald Trump became the first nominee for a major party in a presidential campaign to accept cryptocurrency donations.

00:39:00.600 And the response to this, I want to get your thoughts on just the fact that they're accepting cryptocurrency donations, Roger.

00:39:06.780 And then I also would like to get your thoughts on Elizabeth Warren, who immediately went on CNBC and called for them to ban cryptocurrency because it's being used to fund terrorists across the world.

00:39:18.980 Let's roll Elizabeth Warren and get Roger's thoughts on the back end. 0.83

00:39:22.280 There's a new threat out there.

00:39:23.840 It's crypto.

00:39:24.700 And it is being used for terrorist financing.

00:39:27.920 It is being used for drug trafficking.

00:39:29.720 North Korea is using it to pay for about half of its nuclear weapons program.

00:39:36.020 We can't allow that to continue.

00:39:38.760 Well, Troy, should we then ban dollars?

00:39:42.060 Because dollars are also being used to finance terrorism.

00:39:45.680 Maybe we should ban those.

00:39:47.300 It's an absurd argument.

00:39:49.400 Look, I don't know much about crypto.

00:39:51.920 I have promoted MAGA meme coin, but I really like it for its aesthetic.

00:39:57.700 I like it for its commemorative value, not its historic commemorative value.

00:40:06.800 It's the community that it has founded.

00:40:09.620 I don't know much about Bitcoin.

00:40:12.720 I urge people to do their own due diligence in this area, particularly regarding MAGA meme coin, which is, you know, I've partnered with them.

00:40:23.240 Yes, they do sponsor.

00:40:25.280 Yes, I am compensated for advocating for them.

00:40:29.140 But that's the little I know about Bitcoin.

00:40:33.060 But I think that Trump is absolutely right.

00:40:36.660 Bitcoin as an entity overall, I should say cryptocurrency, is economic freedom.

00:40:47.580 And that's why people like Elizabeth Warren want to regulate it. 1.00

00:40:52.620 They probably like to outlaw it. 0.60

00:40:54.940 It's an absurd argument, of course, that it's used to fund terrorism.

00:40:59.720 So are dollars.

00:41:00.880 Are we going to ban those as well?

00:41:02.780 The U.S. government funds plenty of terrorists, Roger.

00:41:05.640 Maybe we should outlaw them.

00:41:07.000 If you look and by the way, she's not alone.

00:41:10.440 And we have actually a screenshot of a headline that shows that there's Democrats across the country now who are lining up trying to regulate crypto because Donald Trump is accepting donations and cryptocurrency, Roger.

00:41:23.420 I don't know.

00:41:24.320 You know, you've been you've experienced so much in politics.

00:41:27.500 I want to I want to ask you, have you ever seen the knee jerk reaction that Trump gets from the left is really it's got to be unique, even historically?

00:41:37.000 Well, no place was this more evident than when Donald Trump actually got his criminal justice reform.

00:41:43.020 So in both the the the the first step act and the second chance act, Donald Trump and his administration began to to fix some of the inequities in the criminal justice system, most of which flowed from the 1994 crime bill, which has been used to disproportionately incarcerate poor people and black people.

00:42:06.260 For the first time, for the first time, nonviolent crime of possession of very small amounts of drugs for personal use.

00:42:12.600 Now, I don't approve of drug abuse, but I think these people need to be in drug treatment programs, not incarcerated.

00:42:20.100 When Donald Trump finally moved historical legislation to fix some of these inequities, many members of the House Black Caucus voted against these reforms, reforms that they had been pushing for years just because Donald Trump proposed them.

00:42:38.700 So they voted against the interests of their own constituents, they voted against their own previous position just because Donald Trump was successful in promoting criminal justice reform.

00:42:51.520 Both of those historic acts are things that I think he needs to be talking about things he needs to be talking about in the South Bronx, for example.

00:43:02.820 No, the the the the the the level of hysteria, the level of hysteria, the level of apoplexy about Donald Trump, it's it's it's it's almost supernatural.

00:43:16.180 It's just weird. I mean, look, there's a bunch of liberal Democrats that I don't like, but I'm not obsessed with them the way they seem to be obsessed with Trump.

00:43:26.320 It really is Trump derangement syndrome. And nobody has a worse case than Nancy Pelosi.

00:43:34.640 Well, and I would say competing with her, Roger, is, of course, our favorite redhead over on MSNBC, Jen Psaki, who we had news of yesterday. 1.00

00:43:44.100 I wanted to break this here on The Stone Zone because it's quite I would say it's it's almost poetically perfect because Jen Psaki, the former White House press secretary, is facing a subpoena for dodging comments. 0.91

00:43:56.320 Congress after profiting off of her book in which she kind of lies incredibly like a ton. 0.79

00:44:03.140 She lies a lot about the Biden Afghanistan withdrawal and and about the fact that President Joe Biden was checking his watch during the dignified transfer.

00:44:12.760 Now, Roger, she's already had to reprint the book because of Gold Star families coming out and criticizing her for lying about the whole checking the watch thing.

00:44:20.860 And now she's actually being subpoenaed by Congress because she she's lying about the Afghanistan withdrawal of which she was a member of the government. 0.81

00:44:30.680 So she's profiting off of the death of 13 U.S. service members and hundreds of Afghanistan civilians.

00:44:37.660 So what are your thoughts on this, Roger?

00:44:39.460 Well, let's see what happens.

00:44:41.400 I mean, I think there's there's clearly an inequity here.

00:44:44.940 Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro refused a subpoena from the January 6th committee, which I think was not wise.

00:44:53.540 I was subpoenaed.

00:44:54.540 I fulfilled my legal obligation.

00:44:56.680 I appeared where I was supposed to appear.

00:44:58.720 Yes, I asserted my Fifth Amendment rights, not because I had anything to hide,

00:45:02.920 not because that I had any issues regarding the substance, but I've seen how the Congress twists your words into some kind of process crime.

00:45:14.660 So I asserted my Fifth Amendment rights.

00:45:17.260 But Bannon now facing prison over that matter.

00:45:21.980 Peter Navarro already in prison.

00:45:24.240 Yet Hunter Biden thumbs his nose at a subpoena.

00:45:28.420 And he's still at liberty.

00:45:30.620 Let's see what Jen Psaki does. 1.00

00:45:33.320 It reminds me, Troy, of the larger issue.

00:45:36.060 We talked a little bit about this yesterday.

00:45:38.280 One of the great historic legal battles in this country was over Richard Nixon's White House tapes.

00:45:44.360 Nixon claimed that the tapes were his and that they were protected from release and disclosure by the principle of executive privilege.

00:45:52.540 The U.S. Supreme Court has recognized executive privilege for hundreds of years up until 1974.

00:46:00.140 Then, because of the unpopularity of Nixon, fueled by a hysterical leftist monolithic media, they reversed themselves.

00:46:10.500 And, of course, all of Nixon's tapes had to be released.

00:46:13.880 And they were.

00:46:14.560 Now, Joe Biden's administration is refusing to release the audio tape of his interview with Robert Kerr, the special counsel.

00:46:29.040 Well, they say they've already released a transcript.

00:46:31.960 Well, Nixon had released transcripts of the tapes as well.

00:46:35.360 But the left said that was not sufficient.

00:46:37.420 They needed the actual tape.

00:46:39.080 I think we need the actual tape of Biden's interview with special counsel Robert Kerr.

00:46:47.340 Again, the two-tiered justice system.

00:46:50.240 Watching, and we'll probably pull this for tomorrow, watching Merrick Garland try to explain why one subpoena is legitimate, but another subpoena is not legitimate.

00:47:00.340 On what basis?

00:47:02.080 Well, they say, you know, the Republicans just want this for politics.

00:47:05.720 Well, it's all politics.

00:47:08.000 That is, of course, exactly the point.

00:47:10.980 And you're withholding it is politics.

00:47:14.000 All right.

00:47:14.560 I think we are, we've reached our time limit here.

00:47:18.240 Once we get going on politics, we really could go all day.

00:47:21.560 I want to ask all of you to please go to rumble.com slash Roger Stone.

00:47:28.720 That's rumble.com slash Roger Stone.

00:47:32.520 You see it right there on the screen.

00:47:39.980 Also, I ask you to go to stonezone.com.

00:47:44.880 That's my own website.

00:47:46.640 You see that on the screen there as well.

00:47:49.320 And then, of course, I mentioned it yet again.

00:47:52.780 Be sure you subscribe to Slingshot.news.

00:47:56.080 This is a new cutting-edge alternative media outlet that is covering stories that no one else is covering.

00:48:03.860 And we are honored to have the editor-in-chief with us here as our daily co-host.

00:48:10.500 Let's go to a quick commercial break, and then we'll be back with a bit more politics. 0.61

00:48:19.320 About 30 years ago, I had the opportunity to go into the Amazon rainforests and study their medicinal treasures.

00:48:28.480 And the one that really captured my imagination was cat's claw.

00:48:32.420 After all the discussions and interviews with the locals, I went back to the lab,

00:48:38.000 and I found that it was the most potent inhibitor of a switch called NF-kappa-B.

00:48:44.860 NF-kappa-B is normally dormant, and with oxidative stress, it migrates to the nucleus,

00:48:51.040 and it regulates thousands of genes involved in inflammation, turning some off, turning some off.

00:48:57.540 And if you suppress NF-kappa-B, keep it inactive, which is what cat's claw does,

00:49:03.660 then you're able to temper down all of that stress on the body.

00:49:08.420 So cat's claw, I've been using it ever since, so the scientist actually takes his own medicine.

00:49:14.240 Glutathione, I'm so excited that we have a fantastic delivery system for it,

00:49:24.480 because glutathione is the master detoxifier and master antioxidant.

00:49:29.280 Glutathione's like oxygen, okay?

00:49:31.360 You will die in three to seven minutes if you don't get glutathione.

00:49:35.820 Wow.

00:49:36.080 And at three to seven minutes, and we have a way now to get the whole glutathione in your cells

00:49:44.120 in about 90 seconds without using a glutathione IV.

00:49:48.560 It is the most important molecule in your body.

00:49:51.500 Glutathione helps your brain, your liver.

00:49:54.760 It performs 400 functions in your body.

00:49:58.900 So the mast, you know, it will detox every heavy metal, every pesticide, every herbicide.

00:50:04.820 It will detox spike protein from your body.

00:50:08.320 It will detox graphene oxide, and it is the master detoxifier and antioxidant.

00:50:13.940 So glutathione is needed every single day.

00:50:17.640 Noomi.com slash house one.

00:50:25.460 Welcome back, folks.

00:50:26.860 I'm Roger Stone, and you're in the Stone Zone, the place for politics.

00:50:30.900 I'm here with my co-host, Troy Smith.

00:50:32.960 Troy, what's next on the political hit parade?

00:50:36.780 Well, Roger, a lot of really funny stuff coming out of New Hampshire, because as you remember,

00:50:42.980 and we covered here on the Stone Zone, I think more than just about anybody, President Joe

00:50:46.660 Biden and the Democrats really insulted New Hampshire by changing the primary structure.

00:50:51.780 And for the first time in over, I believe it was 150 years, somewhere along those lines,

00:50:55.800 New Hampshire was not the first Democratic primary.

00:50:59.580 And Biden, I think, seeing that he's not doing so well in New Hampshire, and I think additionally,

00:51:05.520 in New England, he faces the threat, especially in that part of the country, he faces the threat

00:51:10.400 of RFK Jr., who I think is definitely stronger in the Northeast portion of the country.

00:51:16.340 So in a desperate attempt to kind of win back New Hampshire, much like he's trying to win

00:51:21.240 back the black vote with the NWLACP speech earlier this week, President Biden traveled

00:51:27.020 to New Hampshire this week, and there was an extraordinary lack of enthusiasm.

00:51:32.040 First, let's roll the clip of New Hampshire voters kind of trashing Biden, and then let's

00:51:37.020 show the video of his event.

00:51:38.600 And on the backside of that, let's get Roger's thoughts on the betrayal of New Hampshire by

00:51:43.240 Biden and how that's going to cost him in 2024.

00:51:46.060 What do you make of his visit?

00:51:48.320 Not interested.

00:51:51.060 I don't actually care for the man, particularly.

00:51:53.660 I think he's done a lousy job, and I can't wait for the election.

00:51:57.680 I don't think he's going to win the state, and I think it was pretty bold of him to try

00:52:02.640 to take our history of being the first of the primary.

00:52:13.240 This is 30 minutes before the President of the United States is supposed to be in this

00:52:35.280 room.

00:52:36.060 Feel the excitement?

00:52:36.860 Wow, Troy, that was seismic.

00:52:50.700 You make an excellent point.

00:52:52.540 New Hampshire's first-in-the-nation primary status in both the Republican and Democratic

00:52:57.940 parties is actually codified in state law.

00:53:01.520 By state law, New Hampshire must have the first presidential primary in the country.

00:53:07.740 If some other state moved ahead of New Hampshire, New Hampshire is actually authorized to move

00:53:12.740 to the year before the presidential campaign in order to be the first in the nation.

00:53:18.240 You're right.

00:53:19.000 Robert Kennedy from neighboring Massachusetts, at least the dynasty, I think certainly within

00:53:24.900 the context of the Democratic primary may have been a danger to Joe Biden.

00:53:31.860 You don't have to beat him to score.

00:53:33.680 Remember, Senator Eugene McCarthy came in second to President Lyndon Johnson, actually to a stand-in

00:53:40.600 for President Lyndon Johnson in the New Hampshire primary, but it was enough to end LBJ's 1968

00:53:47.480 candidacy.

00:53:48.780 Joe Biden didn't want to run that risk.

00:53:50.820 New Hampshire is a state that has changed politically.

00:53:54.620 It used to be a solidly red state, but the tax refugees from Massachusetts who have moved 0.69

00:54:02.760 into New Hampshire have really changed the complexion of the state politically, and they

00:54:09.680 have brought, unfortunately, their Democrat policies and voting patterns with them.

00:54:15.640 So today, I would call New Hampshire a slightly blue state.

00:54:21.460 Here's the real key point, and that is new polls show Donald Trump and Joe Biden deadlocked

00:54:27.920 in a dead heat in the state, which means that at least today, New Hampshire is theoretically

00:54:36.040 winnable by Donald Trump.

00:54:38.320 He also won a historic primary there.

00:54:41.240 He also did a huge amount of advertising and promotion around that primary.

00:54:47.820 I think that that reflects in these poll numbers that show that when Granite State voters are

00:54:54.400 shown the Trump message, they do respond.

00:54:59.940 I think New Hampshire is going to be in play in this November's election.

00:55:05.160 We've got about four minutes, Troy.

00:55:06.620 What's next?

00:55:07.420 Well, Roger, I want to give you the opportunity to kind of open up on this because somebody

00:55:11.680 sent me this clip, and every once in a while, I see something from the Colbert show that

00:55:16.200 really just, like, I can't believe with my eyes how bad it is, how unfunny it is, and

00:55:22.420 how cringeworthy it really is.

00:55:24.320 And Stephen Colbert has really made a career out of this over the last, I don't know, about

00:55:28.000 10 years where he's just been awful.

00:55:30.860 I mean, there's not a single funny thing about the guy.

00:55:33.360 There's not a single redeeming quality about him when he does his interviews.

00:55:37.120 He's not even a good interviewer.

00:55:38.820 It would be one thing if he were biased and he was good at what he does.

00:55:41.720 He's neither.

00:55:42.960 And he's terribly biased.

00:55:45.660 He 100% defends the Democrat position in every single facet of what he does.

00:55:52.260 And then on top of it, he has no talent, and he's terrible at interviewing people.

00:55:57.060 So I saw this clip.

00:55:59.240 This is what's going on.

00:56:00.380 This is why it's important for people, I think, to tune into the Stone Zone, because

00:56:03.540 this is what's going on in the liberal talk shows.

00:56:06.160 Let's roll the clip of the unfunny Stephen Colbert and let Roger give his opinion on the

00:56:11.440 other side.

00:56:12.720 Skibbity Biden.

00:56:14.240 Skibbity Biden.

00:56:16.040 Skibbity, skibbity Biden.

00:56:17.940 Skibbity Biden.

00:56:19.060 Joe, Joe, Joe.

00:56:20.000 Skibbity, skibbity Biden.

00:56:21.840 Hitler's language.

00:56:22.940 Trump, Trump.

00:56:23.840 Trump is using Hitler's language.

00:56:26.320 Hitler's language.

00:56:27.640 Trump is using Hitler's language.

00:56:30.240 Skibbity, skibbity. 0.72

00:56:31.060 I'm not sure what that was.

00:56:34.660 You know, I'm going to disagree with you in some small regard.

00:56:38.140 I actually think Stephen Colbert is not untalented.

00:56:40.760 In other words, he can sing and he can dance.

00:56:43.460 What he is is unfunny.

00:56:45.100 I notice he uses that canned laugh track on his show, kind of like Bill Maher, another

00:56:51.060 guy who, without a platoon of comedy writers, isn't even faintly amusing, just kind of annoying,

00:56:58.680 all 145 pounds of him.

00:57:00.580 So, Stephen Colbert is long past the point where he was amusing.

00:57:07.220 What you see in these late night television shows is an unalloyed, constant barrage of

00:57:14.840 hatred.

00:57:16.040 I'm not sure.

00:57:17.020 Using Hitler's language, that whole thing's a smear.

00:57:20.120 These are the same people who said, oh, Trump said that in Charlottesville there were good

00:57:24.040 people on both sides.

00:57:25.300 We now know that he never said that.

00:57:27.680 Or those who say, oh, he says that veterans who lost their lives defending our countries 0.99

00:57:32.860 were suckers and losers. 0.99

00:57:34.700 Okay, where's the tape? 1.00

00:57:35.720 Play it.

00:57:36.300 Oh, you don't have it.

00:57:37.540 Oh, John Kelly remembers him saying this.

00:57:40.000 John Kelly, an admitted Trump hater.

00:57:42.180 Why would we believe him?

00:57:43.860 This guy had a history of lies during the Trump administration.

00:57:47.640 So, look, Stephen Colbert, I don't watch him.

00:57:51.120 I don't think he's amusing.

00:57:53.200 I guess if you're an elitist leftist, you might find Joe Biden's head popping out of

00:57:58.820 a toilet amusing, but I didn't think it was too amusing. 0.62

00:58:03.240 All right, we have to leave it there with Joe Biden in the toilet.

00:58:07.060 I'm Roger Stone.

00:58:08.260 He's Troy Smith.

00:58:09.500 This has been the Stone Zone.

00:58:11.340 Historic day today.

00:58:12.740 Donald Trump in the South Bronx going right into the heart of opposition territory.

00:58:17.860 It's going to be a great, great day.

00:58:19.720 Until tomorrow, on behalf of Troy and I, God bless you and Godspeed.

00:58:25.420 A man who's gone through hell, but he's kept going and he's smart and he's strong and people

00:58:32.680 love him.

00:58:34.260 Not everybody, but people love him and respect him.
