The Minneapolis school shooter, Robin Westman, confessed he was tired of being trans, and wished he had never been brainwashed into being a woman in the first place. In a manifesto posted online before the attack, he wrote, I only keep the long hair because it s pretty much my last last shred of being Trans. I wish I never brainwashed myself. I hate my face. I like feeling sexy and cute but my face never matches how I feel. Maybe that s why I like furries so much.
00:02:35.000I was getting some facial reconstruction surgery and a beard implant.
00:02:39.000We have an amazing show for you tonight.
00:02:41.000We're going to be talking about what's trending developments in the trans shooter in Minnesota.
00:02:47.000We're going to be covering Mexican drug cartels, developments in the pursuit of corruption around George Soros.
00:02:54.000we're also going to be covering the international censorship affairs and the Trump white houses dueling diplomacy with the European union and UK and what that means for free speech in America.
00:03:05.000So let's talk about some great cast brew coffee that, I'm just going to put some of this on screen.
00:03:21.000This is Queen Josie here with our featured products.
00:03:24.000I've been drinking Cassbrew coffee a long time.
00:04:09.000I'm the senior editor of the Daily Caller, co-host of the Hills Rising and Reasons Free Media, and you can find me on X at Amber Marie Duke.
00:04:45.000Major news outlets avoided or failed to report that the killer who massacred Catholic students at the Annunciation Church and School in Minneapolis on Wednesday identified as transgender.
00:04:56.000Those included The New York Times among others.
00:05:00.000This is a story that is creating kind of a bit of a cultural schism right now.
00:05:07.000What also broke today was that the Minneapolis school shooter Robin Westman confessed he was tired of being trans and wish I had never been brainwashed myself.
00:05:16.000So it's a little curious that the media would omit the key fact of him her being trans when what appeared to be motivating him was that he wished he had never been brainwashed into being trans in the first place.
00:05:32.000He confessed he was tired of being trans and wished he had never brainwashed himself in a manifesto posted online before he slaughtered two children and wounded 18 more at a Minneapolis church.
00:05:43.000He said, I only keep the long hair because it's pretty much my last last shred of being trans.
00:06:45.000How do you guys see the developments in this story?
00:06:48.000I mean, he was obviously totally tortured, right?
00:06:51.000Like, he thought that he was a woman or he wanted to be a woman, he aspired to be a woman, realized that that's not possible.
00:06:59.000I mean, even referencing the technology today.
00:07:02.000He said, There will never be a technology that can actually make a man woman because being a man is something that goes beyond just your genitalia or what reconstructive surgery can do.
00:07:13.000Like they're never going to be able to make men into women.
00:07:17.000But he acknowledged that and he had no recourse, he had already kind of destroyed his life.
00:07:23.000And I imagine that's medically transitioning, was he on HRT?
00:07:37.000I don't know if that information has been released at all.
00:07:40.000Something that really frustrates me is the point scoring, the political point scoring that people have jumped to so quickly before they even knew anything about this case.
00:07:55.000Like there was a point minutes, maybe not even hour after the news broke that people found out who this was, but it wasn't confirmed.
00:08:05.000It was just from a bunch of Twitter accounts, and then people absolutely sunk their claws into this narrative on the right, and I don't want to care if I sound like a fence-sitter, but I also don't want to be misunderstood for saying this.
00:08:24.000I just have a gut feeling that the trans aspect of this, while it is important to talk about and is not to be discounted for one combination factor in why this happened, It does not explain the whole story.
00:08:57.000And there's definitely something that rings to me like this person was communicating with a group or maybe a decentralized fragmentation of groups, including those that I've just heard about in recent weeks, which include seven hundred sixty four and Order of the Nine Angles zero nine a.
00:09:19.000I don't know a lot of details because it's borderline impossible to learn about those groups, and that is by design, that's on purpose because they're so decentralized.
00:09:29.000There's also a teragram, which I believe refers to groups on telegram that aim to groom and radicalize people, but they're not even radicalizing them into a political ideology.
00:09:45.000Their aim is to is toward violence for violence's sake, evil for evil's sake.
00:10:05.000Satanist and the illustration of him looking in the mirror and seeing a demon in his reflection tells me enough that like all I need to know about this story.
00:10:18.000Well, this gets to the conflict between identity and ideology.
00:10:22.000And if you can pull up on the screen here, so there were obviously a lot of ideological things in the manifesto, pretty spicy opinions about Trump, Israel, Palestine, this sort of thing that made people think, okay, this is a leftist terrorist trans person.
00:10:39.000The shooter also praised Anders Brevick and Bretton Terrant, anti Muslim mass shooters, commemorated the murdered wife of white separatists Randy Weaver and Timothy McVeigh and saying the need to instantly impose a clear ideology is stupid at the same time., you have what is an unavoidable pattern.
00:10:56.000This is from Don Trump Jr. pointing out the Denver shooter was trans, the Aberdeen shooter was trans, the Nashville shooter was trans, the Georgia shooter was trans, the Philadelphia shooter was trans, the Uvalde shooter was trans, the Colorado shooter was trans, and now the Minnesota shooter was trans.
00:11:11.000And so there is, I think, one of the things that you see being pointed out by the Walsh types is that even if there is no clear ideology, there is something in the water with the untouchable nature of the trans identity until just last year that you could even talk about it frankly.
00:11:33.000And what appears to be a kind of underlying mental instability that tends to disproportionately give rise to these school shootings.
00:11:40.000Do you think that's just trendy though?
00:11:42.000And what I mean is, do you think that people that have a kind of an outcast personality or an asocial personality, do you think they tend to gravitate towards that kind of trans stuff?
00:11:56.000Or do you think that there's somehow like the trans actually is part of what makes them outcasts?
00:12:03.000I think that so the reason why I think the trans identity is important and this is actually sort of in line with what Mary's is saying, which is that transness itself, I think, is a separation from God, right?
00:12:18.000Because you're rejecting the way that you were born, the way that God made you.
00:12:22.000And so it perhaps can portend someone becoming possessed or having satanic thoughts or becoming very nihilistic.
00:12:33.000So I don't see those two things necessarily as in conflict with one another.
00:12:37.000In fact, I think they're actually really connected.
00:12:44.000And again, this is something I wonder, you know, which came first, the chicken or the egg?
00:12:48.000Is it the nihilism because they don't feel like they have, they're in the right body and they feel like there was a mistake or they feel like they should be a woman or do they feel like there should be a woman and that's part of why they they're nihilists.
00:13:41.000If you don't have religion, a religious foundation, then everything is subjective.
00:13:45.000That means that you have no way to actually judge what is good or bad or no way to kind of focus your efforts in your life to make your life better.
00:13:56.000And is that why they're nihilistic or are they nihilistic because they don't have a focus?
00:14:06.000I mean, one of the interesting things about.
00:14:08.000about the response to the shooting from the former White House press secretary Jen Psaki and the Minneapolis mayor Jacob Fry when they were attacking the power of prayer.
00:14:19.000It's like, well, first of all, prayer is not a magic bubble that protects you from like anything bad ever happening to you.
00:14:26.000I mean, to a certain extent, protection, yes, from evil, but.
00:14:33.000Isn't it interesting that as religion has declined and religiosity and spirituality have declined in America that we see mass shootings and school shootings in particular increasing?
00:14:46.000Woke has stepped into the vacuum of the absence of organized religion.
00:14:51.000And to your point, I have on screen from the post-millennial attacks on American Christian churches skyrocketed 730% during this exact time period where the T and LGBT really took over.
00:15:02.000All right, so let's move on now to our next story.
00:15:10.000Mexican president Claudia Scheinbaum demands US share of $15 billion in drug profits from convicted cartel boss.
00:15:21.000So as the Trump administration is waging this counterinsurgence.cy on Mexican drug cartels and seizing assets.
00:15:30.000The Mexican government is demanding a cut of the drug proceeds.
00:15:33.000Mexican President Claudia Scheinbaum said Wednesday she will press the United States to turn over money seized from convicted Sinaloa cartel leader Ismael El Mayo Zambata.
00:15:42.000Scheinbaum has argued it should go to Mexico's poorest citizens.
00:15:45.000I'm sure that's exactly where the money will end up.
00:16:03.000boss is being sought for more than 20 years and was arrested last year, and now they are in the process of seizing assets.
00:16:10.000This is also happening, I should note, alongside the recent revelations by author Seth Harp on the relationship between Mexican drug cartels and the U.S. military and U.S. Central Intelligence Agency.
00:16:30.000which maybe we can turn to in a little bit.
00:16:32.000What are your guys' opinions on should we give Mexico the drug money or is it ours now?
00:16:38.000Of course, she's prosecuted in the U.S., right?
00:16:42.000We're the ones actually holding him accountable.
00:16:44.000Claudia Scheinbaum, if you talk to pretty much any immigration expert, will tell you is probably captured by the cartel, like at least paid for them, if not actively doing policy that is helping them.
00:16:54.000So like where does she get off telling us what to do with the money that we seized from our investigation and our prosecution?
00:17:02.000Well, one of the issues is that Mexico became our largest trading partner currently.
00:17:07.000And so while we do have a tremendous amount of leverage with Mexico, they now have a fair amount of leverage on us.
00:17:15.000In fact, there's a lot of Texas oil money that depends on shared relationships with Pemex in Mexico.
00:17:22.000There's Tesla factories being built in Mexico.
00:17:26.000were in a sort of pivot war to stop Chinese influence in Mexico and try to get them to commit more and more to our goods.
00:17:33.000And so there's the question of how much of this is a conflict.
00:17:46.000We know Mexico is building a new canal currently that China is trying to get rights over parts of.
00:17:53.000But what do you guys think about the leverage that we have in the Trump administration's current dealings with Mexico?
00:18:02.000I do think that it's in our national security interest to do whatever we can to stymy Mexican, sorry, Chinese influence in Mexico.
00:18:11.000I do think that the Monroe doctrine has value, right?
00:18:14.000I think that the rest of the world should kind of stay out of the the or this hemisphere, you know, the western hemisphere.
00:18:23.000China will do anything they can to attack the United States in whatever way they can.
00:18:28.000I truly believe that they're an adversary.
00:18:31.000So anything that they're doing in conjunction with Mexico, any kind of business dealings, they're not just doing it because they're looking to make some money for Mexico.
00:18:39.000They're doing it because they're looking for access or they're looking to be able to access the United States, whether it be through by working with cartels, you know, sending in the uh sending in the the precursors for fentanyl or whether it be sending Chinese, you know, young men up through the Darien gap from South America through the Darien gap and up into the United States as as illegal immigrants.
00:19:02.000China's looking to do everything that it can to have as much access and influence over the United States as possible.
00:19:09.000And I think the United States has to do everything that it can to prevent that and stymy China's efforts, which up to and including making sure that Chinese students can't come to the United States.
00:19:19.000There was a I saw a tweet today about the 600,000 Chinese students that Donald Trump had made a remark about and the White House just pulled that back.
00:19:31.000Well, they said that it was 300,000 over a period of two years, which is basically an extension of current policy while they negotiate with China.
00:19:39.000But the number is still too damn high, right?
00:19:41.000Like, we should stop all imports of Chinese students until we can figure out what the hell is going on, as Trump would say maybe in his first term.
00:19:49.000I mean, not to get too far off the border topic, but Chinese students who are not.
00:19:55.000connected to the CCP who study in the United States literally look at class rosters to make sure there are no other students in the class with Chinese names because they're worried about getting spied on and having the things they say reported back to the CCP, which obviously can come down on their families.
00:20:09.000So even though they're studying here, they're still within the clutches of the Red Dragon.
00:20:13.000That's a point that I was making the other night.
00:20:15.000Like having Chinese nationals here in the United States, they are going to report back to China.
00:20:22.000There is no Chinese national that's here in the United States that has family in China that China is not going to use their family.
00:20:34.000China has no problem throwing your grandma into jail to get you to do some action against the United States.
00:20:41.000I had dinner with a Uighur Muslim years ago during Trump's first term, and he was talking about how he was speaking out about the concentration camps and basically got a call from his family telling him that his mother had been disappeared.
00:21:10.000If you have family in China or has wants the ability to travel back and forth, like you are under their thumb, even if you don't like them.
00:21:17.000So to think that there's going to be some different policy out of the CCP when it comes to Mexico, I think that's an error and the United States needs to act accordingly.
00:21:27.000You know, we have massive influence on Mexico, no matter how much Scheinbaum wants to run her face and say, oh, we're our own independent country, it blah blah blah.
00:21:35.000Like the United States is still the United States and has massive leverage power, whether it be soft power or, if necessary, you know, direct military power.
00:21:45.000Well, it looks like they there's members of the US military in boats off the coast now.
00:21:57.000And so whatever we can, again, whatever we can do to stymy.
00:22:01.000China's influence in Mexico, I think is good.
00:22:03.000And Mexico needs to get on board with what the United States wants because the United States is their biggest trading partner.
00:22:10.000The United States is the most powerful country in the world.
00:22:13.000The United States has the ability to really influence Mexico and whether it be to their detriment or to their benefit, you know, and being in the good graces of the United States should be something that.
00:22:26.000Something that the United States makes clear is in Mexico's best interest.
00:22:30.000And as for the stuff at Fort Bragg and stuff, I haven't I haven't done any kind of digging into that, but I've heard stories about the possibility of, you know, special forces guys.
00:22:39.000Well, this is what's very interesting.
00:22:41.000So much of American power in the 20th century grew out of the oil industry, which is really centered in Texas, and Texas and Mexico share a huge amount of oil wealth, and a lot of the oligarchs from both countries went into business together.
00:22:59.000You know, famously Carlos Slim and the New York Times, the richest man in Mexico and the like.
00:23:04.000But there has the United States facilitated the drug trade in Central and South America throughout the 20th century to fund right wing death squads in El Salvador, to fund the Nicaraguan Contra War, to fund revolutions all over South America.
00:23:22.000And so there's been this very long time relationship with Mexican drug cartels, Colombian drug cartels, and the U.S. military and intelligence services.
00:23:30.000And another thing that broke today is that HBO just secured rights to develop the Fort Bragg cartel, drug trafficking and murder in the special forces into an HBO series, which I am very excited to see.
00:23:46.000It describes as a fiercely sought after deal, HBO has nabbed the rights to develop the non-fiction book, The Drug Trafficking and Murder in the Special Forces, by investigative journalist and military veteran Seth Harpe, who recently appeared on Tucker Carlson, Democracy Now!
00:24:02.000and laid this out, also as this new book out.
00:24:04.000The book details the investigation into a string of unsolved killings in and around the Special Operations Base, revealing a network of narco-trafficking conspiracies that corrupt police abetted and the military covered up.
00:24:16.000I'm going to read some findings from that so that folks can understand what's going on here.
00:24:20.000The scale of death at Fort Bragg is extraordinary.
00:24:24.000In the book, Harp documents 109 Fort Bragg soldier deaths in between 2020 and 2021 with only four in combat.
00:24:33.000So 105 out of 109 deaths occurred on the base.
00:24:37.000And they were all either murders or suicides.
00:24:41.000And he argues that they intersect with a drug-running network tied to elite networks.
00:24:47.000compiling letters of soldiers involved in a wider trafficking ring, especially moving opiates from Afghanistan.
00:24:57.000The key bridge was a former DEA Task Force agent turned drug trafficker who was the bridge to the Mexican drug cartel, the Los Ayas.
00:25:07.000This was famously the same cartel that the Obama administration ran guns to, ran guns to the Sinaloa cartel to fight against during Operation Fast and Furious.
00:25:18.000If you remember, there was the gun running, this was what forced Eric Holder, the head of the Justice Department, to step down during the Obama administration.
00:25:25.000No scandals besides a tan suit though.
00:25:30.000And so essentially he argues that there's this relationship between the Mexican drug cartels and the Special Operations Forces out of Fort Bragg who also Fort Bragg is also home to the Psychological Operations Center and the Information Warfare Center.
00:25:46.000And these are the same units that are on the ground in drug zones in Afghanistan, in Syria, in Colombia, in Mexico, in Cambodia, in Laos, in Vietnam, and the Golden Triangle.
00:26:03.000These drugs are used in order to fund proxy wars.
00:26:07.000Famously, the US Institute of Peace, which was raided by the Trump administration when it refused to allow the US government to take over the executive branch there, they bolted the doors.
00:26:19.000They kept a weapon stash in the building.
00:26:21.000The FBI had to come in and forcibly remove them.
00:26:24.000They famously in 2023 told the Taliban to keep the drugs flowing.
00:26:29.000They said, congratulations on your new government, Taliban.
00:26:33.000There's one thing you can't do, which is get rid of the opium production in the Golden Crescent.
00:26:40.000These were the same drugs used by the CIA to fund the Mujahideen in the 1970s when both the CIA and the U.S. military were working with Osama bin Laden and the narco-trafficking squad that funded the Mujahideen and then funded ISIS and Al-Qaeda.
00:26:56.000The Biden administration told the Taliban to keep trafficking keep producing those drugs and now tons of revelations are coming out about the military trafficking the drugs that they ordered foreign governments to keep flowing and i think this is part of why you never had a designation of drug traffickers as terrorists before because the u.s government especially the military and intelligence services are in on it it's a key part of our war funding and
00:27:25.000i'm very excited to see how these revelations are turned into policy actions by the trump administration you guys have to think about that you think they will be i think it's an incredible opportunity to renegotiate the power balance with the Uniparty blob as well as with foreign countries.
00:27:44.000The fact is, is just today, I believe it was, a fist fight actually broke out.
00:28:32.00015 hours with 12 minutes with the intonation of the Mexican national anthem a capela with the National Mexican anthem a capela concludes This session of the Permanent Commission of the Corresponding Committee of the Year on Wednesday, This looks like a UFC weigh-in gone wrong.
00:29:06.000There's a better video from Right Angle News Network.
00:29:08.000I tagged you in Tim Minute if you want to put it up on X. Yeah, they have some where the camera doesn't cut away.
00:29:30.000It's like the Sinaloans on one side, new generation.
00:29:33.000on the other it's like they they all have their squads but that's because it's so it's it is the lifeblood of the economy in central america in many parts of south america talking about the drug trade right the drug trade right it is it If you cut it out, then you end up gutting the GDP of the country.
00:29:52.000You end up, you have these populations who would revolt if they were to go hungry and not be able to, because a lot of this is grown by local farmers and the like.
00:30:03.000This is one of the reasons that so much USAID money would flood into these zones and actually take over.
00:30:53.000What's so funny about it is you have these intra-cartel wars, like for example during Fast and Furious, which was only a decade ago, and we still don't have answers to because Eric Holder, the Attorney General of the United States, jumped on the grenade.
00:31:07.000That was an FBI ATF operation to run guns to the Sinaloa cartel to fight against the Losetes cartel, who was pilfering billions of dollars of oil.
00:31:19.000They were cutting open pipelines that were shared by Exxon and Chevron and Pemex, the big state oil company in Mexico.
00:31:28.000And so they were taking billions of dollars from American multinational companies and the only alternative was to send in the troops to stop this cartel.
00:31:38.000But the thinking at the time was you can't send American troops into a foreign country without it being a war.
00:31:43.000But the US has used special forces like direct action guys like Delta guys to go after El Chapo and after other cartel members before, right?
00:31:52.000Well, the issue is with cooperation of the Mexican and Colombian governments.
00:31:59.000But I think what you're dealing with here is a was a giant operation.
00:32:04.000These are multi-billion dollar operations and they themselves have a huge amount.
00:32:08.000Mexican cartels have a huge amount of firepower.
00:32:10.000If you guys have ever seen compilation videos of what Mexican cartels are armed with, they're sending Mexican cartels, you can pull this up, they're sending these cartel fighter trainer units, elite squads to go to Ukraine to learn how to operate sophisticated drone technology, and they've got partnerships on the surveillance and weapons front with some of the most elite weapons manufacturers.
00:32:33.000Telegram is a great place to see those videos.
00:32:36.000And so it is something that you've generally needed cooperation with the government to do at a large scale, and that was not something the Obama administration wanted to do.
00:32:46.000I believe that's because much of the Obama administration was in on it, just as I it was the Republicans were in on it during the Ronald Reagan era in the 1980s and the and in the 2000s with George Bush.
00:32:59.000We literally went into Afghanistan just months after the Taliban in 2001 cut declared an end to opium production to end it end to poppy development.
00:33:14.000In the Golden Crescent, they took the heroin export in Afghanistan from 80% of the world's supply to 0%.
00:33:23.000We then promptly invaded and under U.S. military occupation it ballooned from 0% of the world's heroin to 90% of the world's heroin while USAID was growing their drug crops.
00:33:35.000USAID was busted fertilizing the fields in order to make sure that the drugs could grow just like USAID was pushing for the drugs to continue flowing during the Biden administration.
00:33:49.000And I believe one of the answers to this on all things Mexico foreign policy, on all things narco-trafficking, and related to this Fort Bragg story, is we need the USAID files on the drug trafficking side of things.
00:34:08.000The USAID is in this drug business and currently we have more transparency from the CIA and the NSA and the FBI than we do from USAID.
00:34:20.000It closed down, but we have 60 years of history that we can't get access to because they're not publishing any of the files from the agency that shut down.
00:34:31.000What are your guys' thoughts on a pressure campaign on this White House to do what Tulsi is doing with the CIA to make sure the State Department now does?
00:34:42.000Yeah, and I also want to know specifically what programs have been reconstituted under the State Department, because I don't think they've been clear with specifics about what is actually remaining and moving under Secretary Rubio.
00:34:54.000Yeah, I mean, look, any, I don't know exactly what levers, you know, need to be pulled to get the administration to start releasing information about USAID and the policies and activities and what they've been doing in the past.
00:35:12.000But I do think that it's pretty obvious that that's something that the American people would want, right?
00:35:16.000Like they like the fact that the these kind of blob, to use Mike's term, these blob organizations have been significantly dismantled and it was, it's very popular with the American people.
00:35:31.000And I think that the next step should be to make this, make their activities something that the American people are aware of.
00:35:37.000Maybe it would take congressional hearings, I don't know.
00:35:40.000Maybe it would take something, maybe Marco Rubio and State has to do something.
00:35:44.000I'm not the guy to ask, but I think that whatever information can be put out there is something that the American people would want, right?
00:35:52.000So just a little bit more on this, then we'll move on to the next thing.
00:35:55.000We went through this scandal in the 1980s and 1990s, famously with Gary Webb, The journalist who published Dark Alliance about the role of the CIA in drug trafficking.
00:36:06.000And there was a John Kerry, Senator John Kerry investigation of the CIA's role in the drug trade.
00:36:13.000And the CIA director, John Deutsch, had to travel to Compton in Los Angeles to apologize to the black community for the CIA's role in that.
00:36:22.000And I'll just read one last thing and then move on to the next thing here, which is this is from the Associated Press.
00:36:28.000Here's what it's been doing in South America.
00:36:30.000And the Associated Press wrote this story arguing that the dismantling of USAID will deliver a major blow to drug trafficking.
00:36:38.000drug control policies in South America.
00:36:41.000But when they actually interviewed people, it turned out that none of the folks in Mexico, Colombia or other, or Peru, actually had a problem with USAID shutting down.
00:36:53.000What they told the Associated Press was actually USAID's takeover of these drug zones in the name of stopping drugs led to a giant drug spike.
00:37:05.000They were actually not stopping the drugs.
00:37:07.000It looked like they were proliferating it.
00:37:08.000If you see here, for example, they spoke to so Peru and Colombia are the two biggest drug zone production places in South America.
00:37:19.000And in a statement, they, you see, they said they declined to comment on the US administration's freeze, but the former chief of the drug control agency in Peru said that USAID's pause is an opportunity to review a partnership that has not been effective.
00:37:37.000It has always been conditional assistance with politics involved.
00:37:40.000It has been minimal, often delayed and not integrated.
00:37:43.000So a parallel structure with the Peruvian state.
00:37:46.000And then he said that neighboring Bolivia, which expelled USAID in 2013, has achieved better results in controlling cocaine production since then.
00:37:55.000So actually getting rid of USAID, this is what the former chief of the drug control agency, they formally don't offer an opinion, but they say, if you actually look at what Bolivia did, they did better under it.
00:38:08.000And so I think that all these files around the drug trade in USAID would be incredibly explosive and an opportunity to go after corruption on total.
00:38:37.000But let's move on to our next story here.
00:38:40.000We're now going to turn to the question of George Soros.
00:39:05.000At real Donald Trump, George Soros and his wonderful radical left son should be charged with Rico because of their support of violent protests and much more all throughout the United States of America.
00:39:16.000We're not going to allow these lunatics to rip apart America anymore, never giving it so much as a chance to breathe and be free.
00:39:22.000Soros and his group of psychopaths have caused great damage to our country.
00:39:26.000That includes his crazy West Coast friends.
00:39:38.000Look, they've been funding, if not directly, at least indirectly, all of the groups that pay people to attend these protests that inevitably turn into riots.
00:39:47.000And he also funds all of the pr prosecutors who let the people out of jail.
00:39:54.000The fact that George Soros, the phrase a Soros prosecutor or Soros DA is something that's so well known throughout the United States is a massive problem.
00:40:04.000George Soros has been doing all that he can to fund far left leaning DAs and prosecutors that release criminals back into society.
00:40:15.000You can have all the law enforcement you want in a city.
00:40:18.000You can have umpteen million dollars whatever when it comes to law enforcement.
00:40:26.000If you don't prosecute and put these criminals away, it doesn't matter.
00:40:29.000And like we've seen in DC, the amount of people that you actually have to take off the street to radically change the crime statistics.
00:41:00.000And that's something that the populations of these cities want desperately.
00:41:05.000And it's people like George Soros and left wing.
00:41:08.000Even left-wing financiers or whatever, they're the ones that make these cities unsafe because they're the ones that make sure that DAs that won't prosecute crime are elected.
00:41:22.000They're the ones that dump tons of money into these people's campaigns.
00:41:26.000This is a problem that is fixable if we were to go after the people that are dumping money into these campaigns.
00:41:34.000It was just a couple of years ago, I think in 2023, that the DC police chief at the time, Robert Conti, said that the average homicide suspect had eleven prior in DC.
00:41:46.000It's the same people committing crime over and over again.
00:41:49.000And DC obviously has a specific problem with youth offenders, which is almost directly because of the DC City Council passing criminal justice reform for the worst of the worst and downgrading charges and letting them back out on the streets.
00:42:04.000But yeah, it's the same groups of people over and over again.
00:42:25.000It's a very big heavy artillery weapon to use.
00:42:28.000And part of the issue is that the way the Soros machine works is that it's it's done through these philanthropic 501c3 fronts and it's heavily loyered up in order to basically use loopholes in the tax system to use loopholes in the political influence machinery.
00:42:49.000But the Soros world really trades on national security secrets.
00:42:53.000I believe the best way to understand the Open Society Institute, the Open Society Foundations, is to look at it how we look at Harvard.
00:43:03.000Many people say that Harvard is a hedge fund with a university attached because it's a $56 billion endowment.
00:43:10.000And then you have the university, which is just a pittance compared to that in terms of what it actually requires in maintenance.
00:43:22.000Much of that has been cut by the Trump administration.
00:43:25.000But then Harvard, their institutes and their centers, they go out and they take the actions that actually help the investments of the hedge fund, the Harvard Endowment, the Harvard Management Company.
00:43:36.000And so we saw this in the 1990s when Harvard was tasked by USAID, given actually hundreds of millions of dollars in USAID money to reorganize the economy of Russia while the Harvard Endowment was investing in the these Russian oil industries and steel industries.
00:43:55.000And so they were setting the policy inside Russia while profiting off of it.
00:43:59.000But these, and I do think that there needs to be an interrogation of the role of insider trading on national security secrets.
00:44:09.000Right now, there's a lot of attention on the Nancy Pelosi stock trader side of things where you will invest members of Congress will have insider knowledge about a bill that will affect a business and they will invest in the stock market to bet on the rise and fall of companies well before the market does.
00:44:27.000Well, the way Soros and many of these other big kind of oligarch sort of hedge funds slash philanthropy people work is they work with the State Department, USAID, NATO.
00:44:41.000Their institutions serve as fronts for them, and then the hedge fund bets on those operations that they're facilitating.
00:44:48.000So the Open Society Institute will operate with the State Department in Mongolia to make sure that we get the rights to a copper or gold mine.
00:44:56.000But then the Soros hedge fund will invest in the company that they are working with the CIA and the State Department, the USAID, to get to get the rights to.
00:45:05.000They'll do the same thing in Eastern Europe.
00:45:07.000They'll do the same thing in South America.
00:45:09.000And I believe that there needs to be a full review of the Open Society Foundation security clearance possession.
00:45:16.000Just this week, Tulsi Gabbard, I believe this is actually just yesterday.
00:45:53.000What was just broke two weeks ago was actually this incredible revelation from 2016 at the very start of Russia Gate in July 2016.
00:46:07.000Tulsi and the FBI declassified an annex that has been classified for years relating to intelligence from the very origins of Russia Gate.
00:46:17.000And it started off essentially with a plot between Hillary Clinton and George Soros.
00:46:23.000And I'll read here from the actual annex itself, which was released by Chuck Grassley.
00:46:31.000And this related to the George Soros Eurasia Center, the nonprofits Open Society Foundation, and Leonard Bernardo, who was the regional director for Eurasia at the Open Society Foundation, as well as Jeff Goldstein there.
00:46:46.000And what they publish is this incredible section here.
00:46:54.000I'm not sure if we can control F in here.
00:46:56.000But there was a section that said if that Hillary Clinton had just approved a plan from her foreign policy advisor to set Trump up to make it look like he was backed by the Russians, that the FBI would come and pour oil on it later, that crowd strike would do the media, that we'd come up with some reason like our critical infrastructure is under attack.
00:47:23.000purportedly from Leonard Bernardo, the head of the Open Society Institute Foundation for Eurasia.
00:47:29.000So somehow George Soros' Open Society Institute knew that Hillary Clinton had approved this false flag plan to set up Trump, knew that the FBI was in on it, knew that CrowdStrike was in on it to fake digital forensics and argue that Russia had hacked the DNC server.
00:47:48.000And so how did the Soros Institute know these deep details about the Hillary Clinton campaign to do this plot?
00:47:57.000Well, we know that they were meeting with the State Department.
00:48:02.000at when Hillary Clinton was the, I'm going to pull this up on screen here, when she was the Secretary of State.
00:48:10.000This was, I'll put who was in the room.
00:48:16.000So we know that Hillary Clinton met with George Soros personally at the State Department, and they brought along with them the very people who turned up in the classified annex.
00:48:30.000Jeff Goldstein, the head of the senior policy advisor for Eurasia.
00:48:35.000who was named in the FBI in the classified annex here.
00:48:38.000Does Jeffrey L. Epstein have a security clearance?
00:48:44.000And I believe we need a full accounting, the same way we published the JFK files., the MLK files, the Russia Gate files.
00:48:52.000We need all USAID files, all CIA analyst memos that mention the Open Society Institute.
00:48:58.000Let's put on display for the world the full extent of US government involvement in this.
00:49:05.000And I have one more thing to say about that, but what are you guys' thoughts when I laid it out?
00:49:09.000Well, this is pretty much all of the former NATSEC officials or IC officials who are on the left wing, which is that they trade in secrets, whether it's leaking things to mainstream media or after they leave.
00:49:27.000service, I use that term very loosely, After they leave the government, getting these massive media contracts where they're basically paid to go on and speak with an air of authority about things of which they're not privy to any more, like the 51 officials who signed the letter claiming that the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation.
00:49:46.000Like they didn't have any special secret knowledge about that, but they were using the guys of we have security clearances and we worked in the intelligence community in order to try to provide veracity to that claim.
00:50:00.000Clapper, Brennan, all of these people had developed these relationships with the media so that they could secure these six figure contributor contracts by, well, what do we think they were doing while they were in government?
00:50:12.000They were giving them access to information that they otherwise wouldn't have had access to.
00:50:16.000And actually, this is pretty much exactly what John Bolton is accused of doing, right?
00:50:21.000Of keeping classified documents or emailing them to himself so he could use them for a book deal so that he could write a memoir about his time in the Trump administration.
00:50:30.000And he, John Bolton, interestingly, was the head of policy and budget for USAID under Ronald Reagan in the 1990s, right when George Soros started the Open Society Foundation and partnered with USAID during the Cold War.
00:50:46.000So this was this left-hand right-hand alliance that George Soros prohibited for 40 or 50 years at least.
00:50:53.000And Mike, you were talking earlier about how USAID is often actually inflating the problem that they're supposedly trying to solve and how there's going to be so much revisionist history about what they were actually doing if the files are not released.
00:51:08.000And I mean just to provide another example of that, during the AIDS epidemic in the 80s and 90s, the revisionist history is that the US government and Ronald Reagan specifically were homophobic and that's why the epidemic was able to get out of control.
00:51:26.000If you read Marty McCarey's book that he released, I think it was two summers ago, I apologize, I can't recall the name, but you can Google it.
00:51:36.000He talks about how they were stopped from prohibiting gay men at that time from donating blood because it would be viewed as homophobic.
00:51:46.000And what happened was a whole bunch of people who required regular blood transplants for various diseases or for whatever reason that they were getting infected blood because they had no prohibition on gay people donating blood.
00:52:04.000In fact, they couldn't even ask them about their sexual activity.
00:52:06.000So you had a bunch of gay men, specifically in Los Angeles, who had been very promiscuous or were prostitutes themselves going in to donate blood for drug money or for rent money or whatever it was.
00:52:18.000And the government basically were like, well, we can't tell them to stop because we would get accused of homophobia.
00:52:23.000So actually by doing the opposite of what they accused them of not being homophobic, they made the problem so much worse.
00:52:29.000The accusation of bigotry has been incredibly detrimental to our society because it's been used against people so many times when they bring up legitimate concerns.
00:52:40.000I'm just this particular one, you know, as an example, but the accusation of, oh, you're just mean.
00:52:46.000You just have a hateful opinion has done significant damage to the United States.
00:52:51.000Well, it's fascinating you bring up that example because USAID has a crazy history with using AIDS as a way to have AIDS programs be a front for covert CIA operations.
00:53:07.000I have on the screen here, USAID program, this is under the Obama administration, USAID program used young Latin Americans to incite Cuba rebellion, saying that an HIV workshop would be the perfect excuse for political goals in Cuba.
00:53:22.000And what you see is beginning in 2009, a project overseen by USAID sent Venezuelan, Costa Rican, and Peruvian young people in Cuba in hopes of ginning up rebellion.
00:53:34.000scouting for people they could turn into political activists.
00:53:37.000In one case, the workers formed an HIV prevention workshop that USAID memos called the perfect excuse for the program's political goals, basically arguing that Cuban counterintelligence would never think to look at a USAID AIDS program as the locus point for doing CIA covert actions.
00:54:00.000And I think this is why the military is the main blocking point for cutting PEPFAR funds.
00:54:06.000This was a major, PEPFAR was a major way, in fact, almost all of AIDS.
00:54:12.000If you look at AIDS in Africa, the test that they actually used for it was a, it was named after a place in Congo, I believe, the name of the test.
00:54:24.000But it was, did you have, did you experience significant weight loss in the past 30 days?
00:54:44.000But what happened was, is U.S. aid and military money flowed in and U.S. influence over African governments became a vice grip.
00:54:56.000And the same way that Big Pharma functions as a lobby in the United States, it functions as a lobby on African governments.
00:55:03.000And also, most of the money for AIDS relief goes to the military warlords and it's used for guns.
00:55:12.000I documented when Bono came out and was on the Joe Rogan episode arguing that USAID cuts had killed three hundred thousand people so far, I pointed to the fact that when Bono did the live aid and band-aid fundraisers during the AIDS pandemic, they raised a hundred million dollars.
00:55:30.000And the BBC reported that ninety five million dollars went to CIA backed warlords in Somalia, not to AIDS relief.
00:55:40.000But when you control the relief, you control the logistics.
00:55:50.000You can transport weapons and drugs and diamonds and guns in through the through the logistics chain that you control.
00:55:59.000And so the aid really functions as the front line of the operation.
00:56:04.000It's might as well go directly to special forces.
00:56:07.000And so I think that's what's happening here.
00:56:09.000But I do want to get to one other aspect of this because what we've talked about so far has been reviewing the security clearances.
00:56:16.000cut uh mapping out the uh other aspects of the corruption but Trump specifically pointed to Rico because of support for violent protests and this is something as a free speech activist and maximalist I'm very wary of what the counter argument will be which is that protest activity is protected.
00:56:35.000And even if protests are large or sometimes get unruly, you should be careful about not going after the right of freedom of speech and the right to protest.
00:56:45.000But to that, I would like to point the Trump administration to where I believe the Rico case is strongest.
00:56:51.000And this is when it comes to not just being in the streets and making noise and banging pots and pans, but when it comes to organized criminal activity.
00:57:01.000And I'm going to play from the Soros partnered U.S. Institute of Peace that we referenced here.
00:57:08.000I'm going to play part of a video here from their own video archive where what they propose is is actually This is what they call non-violent action and this is what the Soros groups do under the guise of a kind of gene sharp color revolution style Non-violent action is what they call it this this protest activity now this is from the U.S. government This is on the U.S. government's video archive.
00:57:38.000I'm going to play just this section and then I'll get you guys' thoughts on this.
00:57:42.000Third category of non-violent tactics is non-violent intervention.
00:57:47.000These include such actions as sitting in, blocking roads, overloading facilities, establishing parallel or alternative institutions, occupying buildings and acts of civil disobedience, and even deliberately seeking imprisonment.
00:58:07.000So this is the U.S. government guide that I have pulled up now.
00:58:12.000Again, this was produced by our taxpayers.
00:58:14.000The US Institute of Peace gets $55 million a year from taxpayers and has a mandatory board spot for the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of State.
00:58:23.000These mandatory board spots to have the head of the State Department and the War Department and created by an act of Congress funded by the US government, our taxpayer dollars.
00:58:34.000I have their advanced course on civil resistance.
00:58:37.000Now, all of the folks involved in this course have been involved in the violent riots of the past decade, from backing the BLM, Summer of Love riots, to the ICE riots, and even in their own written guide, they propose that groups blockade, blockade roads, blockade shipments, blockade the city.
00:59:00.000They have an entire training seminar here where they get people to strategize about how to block city intersections and like.
00:59:08.000I believe when it comes to RICO, it's one thing, there's no problem with establishing parallel or alternative institutions or being in the streets being an annoying person.
00:59:19.000But blocking roads is a violation of the law.
00:59:22.000And when that is organized and premeditated, that becomes RICO.
00:59:27.000Occupying federal government buildings.
00:59:29.000These are the same people who called for 1,000 years in prison for anyone who occupied the Capitol building.
00:59:36.000And yet they will propose to occupy police buildings or government buildings during the Brett Kavanaugh case.
00:59:44.000These acts of civil disobedience, all this stuff, that means.
00:59:48.000legal disobedience breaking the law and so i think when we need a full accounting of the if if a subpoena were to be fired off at the open society institute and churla in la with the ice riots to get their internal documents under court order to see how much of that was premeditated.
01:00:12.000If you want to protest the ICE raids, no problem with that.
01:00:29.000What I've just showed on screen are formal U.S. government guides from the very institutions partnered with the Source Open Society Institute on instructions to do it and training scenarios for how to do it.
01:00:58.000I mean, anything that you can do to push back on this kind of behavior, the government shouldn't be instructing people on how to basically to protest or inhibit, you know, what other citizens are doing to live their lives, right?
01:01:15.000Like if you're talking about blocking highways and stuff like that, people have to live their lives.
01:01:19.000And in the United States, you're free to say, I don't want anything to do with your protest.
01:01:24.000And the fact that the government is helping to instruct protesters, probably paying money, but helping to instruct protesters in how to do non-violent protests, which will harm their fellow citizens, right?
01:01:43.000Like whether it be making people late and possibly losing the job or you got someone trying to go to the hospital and they're preventing people from getting through, whatever it may be, people have the right to decide to not be involved in your BS.
01:01:56.000And the fact that the government is funding this kind of stuff, telling people how to frustrate your fellow citizens' lives is absolutely abhorrent.
01:02:08.000It should be stripped from the government and any kind of criminal charges that can be brought up, I think they should do it.
01:02:15.000I just don't view blocking the free movement of people as nonviolent, right?
01:02:24.000Well, what's amazing is, so this instructor here, Maria Stefan, who founded the US Institute or directed the, she was the head of the program on nonviolent action at the US Institute of Peace, she's on record saying that they've cleverly redefined, defined the term non-action to specifically exclude property damage from the definition.
01:03:58.000Efforts to finalize a trade agreement between the European Union and the United States have run into roadblocks with unresolved disputes over digital policy and market access holding up the release of a long anticipated joint statement.
01:04:11.000Talks have dragged on as Washington pushes back against what it labels as non-tariff barriers which includes EU's censorship law the Digital Services Act now if folks remember during the 2024 election cycle the head of the EU Digital Commission threatened Elon Musk for talking to Donald Trump on X during their first public X space.
01:04:35.000He sent a threat letter saying if you guys talk about what's happening in the UK right now with the Tommy Robinson street protests that were popping off, then you will be fined by the EU for non-democratic discourse that impacts hearts and minds in the EU.
01:04:53.000Now the irony of that was the UK is no longer even in the EU.
01:04:58.000So the EU is telling one non-EU citizen, Elon Musk, not to talk to another non-EU citizen, Donald Trump, about a non-EU country, the United Kingdom, and threatening to fine them.
01:05:11.000So what both the EU and the UK are doing right now is attempting to seize long-arm jurisdiction over American speech.
01:05:20.000And they're working with Democrats in the U.S. and never Trump Republicans in the U.S. in order to try to take out both of their mutual opposition by using the power of the in-power government.
01:05:32.000government in bodies in the EU and the UK.
01:05:36.000And related to this, we have just out today the very guy who threatened Elon Musk for talking to Donald Trump during the 2024 election cycle.
01:05:47.000Thierry Breton wrote in The Guardian, the EU surrendered to Trump over trade tariffs.
01:05:52.000Now it's in danger of capitulating again.
01:05:55.000A fresh U.S. assault is aimed at Europe's right to regulate tech.
01:06:03.000And so what he writes here is that essentially, he's calling on the EU to not bend to Donald Trump or JD Vance and to keep the censorship power that they crafted into law in 2022 with this censorship law in force.
01:06:21.000And he's cautioning them against basically allowing free speech on the internet because American free speech impacts hearts and minds in Europe.
01:06:29.000And Europe will undergo a dramatic surge in right-wing populist political parties who undermine democratic discourse.
01:06:37.000And so you see this attempt to kind of prop up Europe's censorship apparatus from within their institutions there.
01:06:45.000And while that is happening, the UK., not to be outdone, passed its own version of the EU Digital Censorship Act.
01:06:54.000This is called the UK Online Harms Bill.
01:06:59.000And they are now charging $4chan and Kiwifarms $20,000 a day for failing to adhere to the UK's censorship standards under this law.
01:07:12.000And so now I'm going to read here from an attorney in the case.
01:07:19.000On behalf of our clients, 4chan and Kiwifarms, the law firms of Burn and Storm and the Coleman Law Firm have today filed a federal law lawsuit against the UK Office of Communications, Ofcom, in DC Federal Court.
01:07:33.000American citizens do not surrender our constitutional rights just because Ofcom sends us an email.
01:07:38.000In the face of these unlawful foreign demands, our clients have bravely chosen to assert their constitutional rights.
01:07:43.000And I'm going to read a little bit before we get back to the discussion.
01:07:46.000I'm going to read a little bit of the complaint.
01:07:49.000This is kind of a legendary page one, 4chan versus the world here.
01:08:05.000The Internet is a global system of communication between computer servers located in data centers around the world.
01:08:11.000Despite the Internet's global reach, it is more or less universally acknowledged that the Internet is predominantly an American innovation built by American citizens, residents, and companies, and the United States is the largest and most thriving technology sector of any G7 member state.
01:08:25.000Foreign governments, particularly those in Europe, which have not managed to build technology sectors of their own, have sought to control the American Internet, hobble American competitiveness through a range of legislative and other initiatives, and they're now threatening us, essentially, he argues, with arrest and imprisonment.
01:08:42.000I see this as being one of the most fundamental issues of our time.
01:08:48.000While we have done an incredible job of gutting the censorship industrial complex in the federal government by shutting down the DHS censorship operation, the State Department censorship operation, the USAID one, the National Science Foundation one, now the threats are really an international one, working with the censors in exile in the U.S. with in power governments abroad who do have that power.
01:09:11.000And so it now falls to the Trump White House and State Department to protect American speech, not from the threat from within that we've had so much for the past six years, but the threat from without that are working with our forces within.
01:09:26.000I, for one, completely commend the Trump White House and State Department.
01:09:30.000It would have been very easy for them to have ignored this issue and signed a lucrative trade deal that Wall Street and donors would have loved.
01:09:38.000I have to imagine that most donors to the Republican Party care more about getting a favorable trade deal than they do about four Chan's right to free speech.
01:09:48.000But this, to me, is really responsive to the base and they're really putting it on the table and putting on the line to fight for our reach, our right to talk smack.
01:09:58.000Well, I'm sure the big tech companies wouldn't be thrilled about a trade deal that didn't include these stipulations because.
01:10:03.000because the UK has fined big tech companies in the US over 30 billion dollars for failing to comply with their speech laws.
01:10:12.000They threatened to jail not just Elon Musk, but also Mark Zuckerberg.
01:10:15.000He said recently that he was told he could be jailed if he didn't use Meta to silence speech, and then the EU tried to get Google to add fact checks to its search results and next to YouTube videos that popped up on Google search, which they rejected.
01:10:30.000But of course, they'll be fined and threatened with jail as well.
01:10:33.000So all of these major American innovative companies and like, I'm not a big tech fan by any means, right?
01:10:39.000I mean, they steal Americans' privacy.
01:10:41.000They do censorship on their own terms all the time.
01:10:45.000But the idea, it's it's sort of like, you know, you're allowed to make fun of your sibling, but when other people make fun of your sibling, it really pisses you off.
01:11:08.000And these, these European countries are looking to actually fine them and possibly do whatever they can to harm their business model just because they won't censor their own citizens, which is completely antithetical to what we in the West consider normal standards for a government.
01:11:29.000It's generally agreed upon in the West that we all believe in the freedom of speech.
01:11:35.000Now granted, the United States has the strongest protections because we have it in our constitution.
01:11:39.000But if you ask, especially 10, 15 years ago, if you ask anybody from France, anyone from the UK, anyone from Germany, they'd say, no, we have the freedom to say whatever we want.
01:11:48.000We can share opinions that are controversial.
01:11:52.000And the UK put something like 3,000 people in jail last year over Facebook posts.
01:11:57.000It's ridiculous to say that they're even That they that they have a concern for their populations to be able to express controversial ideas to say that that's something that they actually care about.
01:12:35.000But just to say something as simple as, no, I think our immigration policy is bad and we should have significantly fewer immigrants into our country.
01:12:44.000That is a boring boilerplate policy preference that should not be controversial in any way, but you can still get picked up by the UK or by the police.
01:12:55.000All of these illiberal losers, by the way, in the US who think Trump's a fascist, like if you can't criticize your own government, they love Europe.
01:13:11.000And I'm delighted to see that there is now.
01:13:16.000This is an easy way to do, but it's an easy thing not to do.
01:13:20.000And it also gives an opportunity for the Trump base to grow up and understand the international picture.
01:13:28.000I think what drew most people who support Donald Trump for president or are sort of populist in the modern age was not necessarily because of foreign policy or international relations, but rather because they cared about their own country.
01:13:43.000They wanted to make their own country great again.
01:13:45.000They cared about their own schools, their own cities, and crime rates.
01:13:49.000And so there has always been this kind of knock on the MAGA movement or the supporters of Donald Trump that they're isolationist or they're little they don't understand the big wider world they don't understand trade and international relations and this issue with Europe right now has forced us to in order to so that I think we've a clear lens on our own place in the world.
01:14:12.000I want to play a clip here to drive home the importance of this issue to the audience.
01:14:17.000This is This post is titled Censorship Industry Insiders Plot to Leverage EU Censorship Laws to force X to re-staff fired censorship workers.
01:14:28.000This is in 2023 after Elon cleared out the trust and safety team.
01:14:34.000Featured here are the head of toxic conversation research for Twitter 1.0, a fellow at the Atlantic Council, which has seven CIA directors on its board and is funded by the State Department, the USAID, and the U.S. military,
01:14:51.000four branches of the U.S. military, as well as another member of the National Down for Democracy, which was set up by the Central Intelligence Agency in the 1980s to fund money to groups that the CIA didn't want to look like it was funding.
01:15:12.000And by the way, every person on this panel is an American.
01:15:15.000And here's what they said in the aftermath of Elon Musk's acquisition of X and all of their inside contacts in the censorship industry at X being fired.
01:15:26.000If it were not for Europe right now, I think that I would feel pretty defeated and despondent in this moment.
01:15:33.000It has certainly become much, much more difficult for outside researchers to do the sorts of right of the options that you list, Samir to actually engage directly with people at the platforms because there are simply fewer of them, right?
01:15:48.000We spent literally years building up relationships with good folks at all these platforms who were trying to do the right thing.
01:15:59.000It's really, really difficult to know who to reach out to, who to work with.
01:16:04.000If it weren't for the European Union and the Digital Services Act, I don't know that we'd have much hope of rectifying that situation at all.
01:16:14.000But given the sort of requirements that for performing risk assessments, for sharing more transparent information with the public, and crucially, for sharing data with researchers, I do think that we still have some options for leverage to continue the work that we've been doing.
01:16:32.000And hopefully, ultimately, that leads to a sort of restaffing of some of these positions, increased focus again as the DSA begins to come into force and the platforms feel the real pressure of actual enforcement action.
01:16:49.000So these are American censors with multi-six figure censorship jobs from 2017 to 2022.
01:17:01.000Saying that they would feel desperate and despondent if not for a foreign government, a foreign regulatory bodies censorship law which will put real pressure on the tech companies to restaff them get them their old power and money back and that once it comes into force it will exert that leverage on them and it will force them now she says risk assessments that's for quote disinformation risk because now every American tech company has to
01:17:31.000submit a report to the EU about their own assessment of the risk of allowing different kinds of speech allowing what disinformation the risks there are to allowing people to challenge COVID vaccine mandates or support for different anti-democratic candidates in the EU and the like.
01:17:50.000And so these are the same people who are explicitly plotting with the EU.
01:17:56.000Folks recall Nina Jankovitz, who was the head of our disinformation governance board, earlier this year she testified to the EU that they need to stand up to another foreign, another authoritarian country besides Russia, and it's the United States of America.
01:18:22.000She registered as a British foreign agent.
01:18:25.000She had a FARA registration for her work after the Disinformation Governance Board at a USAID funded censorship shop called the Center for Information Resilience.
01:18:34.000So what you have, again, are these censors in exile who see that they've lost power over our own federal government.
01:18:40.000But the only way to get the tech companies to censor political speech at the scale that they need in order to win is to have a government with regulatory power, the ability to find these companies into oblivion, to box them out of markets.
01:18:54.000If Facebook lost Europe, if X lost Europe, that would be huge.
01:18:58.000There's more people in the EU than there are in the United States.
01:19:54.000The woman we heard from, Rebecca Tromble, works for a university in the Netherlands.
01:20:00.000So she's over there researching, talking to colleagues all day probably about censoring people.
01:20:07.000All of the academics had a history of studying right-wing populism, diversity, and Islam.
01:20:13.000So it's pretty clear what they were brought in to do.
01:20:18.000She said, in the context of growing political polarization, the spread of misinformation and increases in in civility and intolerance, it is clear that if we are going to effectively evaluate and address some of the most difficult challenges arising on social media, academic researchers and tech companies will need to work together much more closely.
01:20:37.000So it wasn't even just about disinformation, but about really any political speech that could be categorized as uncivil.
01:20:44.000It's worth noting too, and this is probably saying the obvious for a lot of people, but like these people have not gone away.
01:20:51.000So when the Democrats come back or if the Democrats get back into power, these people will be ushered back into into the government, all of the Organizations, the bureaucracies that they once inhabited, they will be propped back up, they will be reinstated, and they will go after conservatives.
01:21:08.000They will come after conservatives that have been speaking out against them, they will align with Europe, and they will try to go after businesses in the United States, they will go after people that do podcasts, people that are influencers, they will go after everyone they can.
01:21:26.000And if you think they won't, if for a second you're like, no, they won't, that stuff's gone, remember what they did to parents that went to complain about what their children were learning in school.
01:21:39.000Like if it wasn't for COVID, parents wouldn't have seen what children were learning in schools because the remote classrooms that were going on, parents saw that.
01:21:48.000And that was kind of the first step where parents were like, holy crap, wait a second, what are my kids learning?
01:23:09.000What is Mike Pompeo, the CIA director, doing?
01:23:12.000She's right next to Hillary Clinton at that same SIPA school at Columbia University.
01:23:16.000What is Victoria Nuland doing right now?
01:23:18.000She's at Columbia University with Hillary Clinton and Mike Pompeo at the same SIPA school for international affairs.
01:23:24.000What did Mike Pompeo do during the latest attempt to have a peace deal negotiated before the Alaska trip with with between Ukraine and Russia.
01:23:34.000Mike Pompeo from Colombia went straight over to Ukraine and advised them to take offensive action if they effectively if they wanted to scuttle the deal or get more favorable terms.
01:23:46.000And so they use academia as the front.
01:23:49.000This was the same thing done through the Stanford Air Net Observatory to censor the 2020 election.
01:23:56.000It was Michael McFall, who was the U.S. Ambassador to Russia, the guy who's coordinating the statecraft and intelligence, who was the head of the technical affairs there.
01:24:05.000It was Renee DeResta who started her career in the CIA.
01:24:08.000Who was the actual head of the place itself?
01:24:13.000It was Alex Demos who was doing the RussiaGate crap at Facebook and working essentially to try to maximize censorship at that time.
01:24:25.000And I'm going to actually pull a quote here because you mentioned something else, which was that another thing that gets leveraged is pressure on companies.
01:24:34.000And this we saw happen during the Elon Musk fight with the Brazilian government when they shut down X. Not only did in 2024, I believe in April, the Brazilian government force X to close for a time.
01:24:51.000But they also seized assets from Starlink, a completely unrelated issue just because it was connected to Elon Musk.
01:25:01.000And so this is the head of, again, you can call it an academic institution, but this is essentially a cutout front for a statecraft and intelligence linked network to try to achieve foreign policy goals by destroying political candidates who get in the way of those foreign policy goals.
01:25:19.000And so this is the head of the Stanford Air and Observatory here.
01:25:21.000I'm going to, this is the clip where he, right after Elon bought X, he said.
01:25:26.000He said taunted Elon Musk that he bought himself into a hellish existence the week Musk acquired Twitter.
01:25:31.000And then he goes on 14 times to name Tesla and notes it as a vulnerability that governments could exploit to force Musk to censor speech.
01:25:39.000And I'm just going to play this one where he says this is the head of the Stanford Air Net Observatory, which worked in a consortium with the very Atlanta Council that two of these folks in this clip, both Katie Harbath and Dean, this whole crew is affiliated with the same NED Atlanta Council Network.
01:26:00.000And so he goes on to, I'm just going to play this clip.
01:26:04.000And this was from right after Elon acquired what was in Twitter.
01:26:10.000The really hard thing for Musk, and this is what I'm saying, I think this is a huge strategic mistake for him.
01:26:14.000And the people who should be really angry today are Tesla shareholders because most of Musk's net worth is tied up in Tesla shares.
01:26:22.000Tesla is a company that actually makes stuff that has to follow the law to ship products around the world and has huge exposure to all of these different regions that want to control the internet.
01:26:34.000That is, as you and I talk about all the time, the number one fight over the next ten years is going to be who gets to control what speech is allowed online and every government outside of the US with our First Amendment wants to do that.
01:26:48.000And so Musk has done something that is unprecedented here, which he has said, I am personally responsible for content moderation on this platform.
01:26:54.000And by the way, most of my money is in a car company that makes and ships cars in all of these jurisdictions.
01:27:02.000Tesla has a factory in Berlin, Berlin, the headquarters of European content moderation, right, with Germany and NetSDG.
01:27:11.000So he's basically suggesting that if they want to coerce censorship on X, they should target the personal assets or equity holdings or the essentially go try to get the shareholders to do a color revolution ground up, you know, revolt at a corporate level against Tesla in order to compel censorship at X. It's basically ESG.
01:27:42.000But we also saw this during these are the same folks who were involved in the Tesla takedowns that, you know, I think helped drive a wedge between the Trump and Elon sides of the White House.
01:27:55.000There's a if I played clips earlier from Maria Stefan and the US Institute of Peace, and this is we saw this.
01:28:03.000Same thing with this group being involved, not just in essentially hinting to the German government that they could go after Tesla there three years ago.
01:28:15.000But this very same network – and I'll play this clip here.
01:28:19.000This is Erika Chenoweth who is – who was a – She was the co-author of books on how to do color revolutions with Maria Stefan, the head of the program on nonviolent action at the Taxpayer F funded and founded U.S. Institute of Peace.
01:29:30.000She looks exactly how you describe it.
01:29:32.000Gene Sharp, who is considered by many as being a really, like, potentially the key intellect in the latter part of the 20th century on nonviolent action.
01:29:42.000Now she keeps citing Gene Sharp here as their godfather, as they all do.
01:29:46.000And I want to just point out a couple facts about this to, again, connect this to the larger network.
01:29:53.000Gene Sharp was, his institution was given 50.
01:30:02.000He and Henry Kissinger were part of something called the CIA at Harvard.
01:30:07.000It was a cleverly named, clever acronym.
01:30:09.000It was the Center for International Affairs.
01:30:12.000So the acronym is CIA, so it was colloquially called the CIA at Harvard.
01:30:16.000And they received $50 million from the U.S. military as part of Project Camelot, one of the most infamous Cold War social science projects, the Manhattan Project of Social Science, whose goal was methods for predicting and influencing social change and internal war potential, how to essentially create civil wars in order to overturn governments who didn't give the World Bank or the U.S. State Department what they wanted.
01:30:46.000And this was a it was run by the office of the Chief of Psychological Warfare, which, you know, is going to get us back to this Fort Bragg sort of idea, but this was $50 million in military funding in order to come up with this playbook for how to topple governments through a bottom-up, people-powered color revolution instead of a direct military coup or military invasion.
01:31:49.000And the third bucket is what he calls alternative institutions or methods of nonviolent intervention, which includes alternative institutions.
01:31:58.000And the reason in the first bucket he puts protest and persuasion in the same category, I think, is because of this kind of tactical acknowledgement that protest is a largely symbolic action.
01:32:12.000The reason that she's bringing this up is, you'll see it's called moving beyond protests.
01:32:16.000And this was at the time of these Tesla takedown attacks.
01:32:41.000Is it trying to put pressure, you know, on particular policymakers to advance new policies or plans or to get on their side or whatever.
01:32:52.000So there's lots of things that can be done with protest, but it's largely a sort of communication device between the movement and the public.
01:33:00.000Sometimes it can serve an organizing function because it's a way of people to find themselves in a movement and then they can be they can be further engaged through protest.
01:33:10.000through mass organizations and things like that.
01:33:14.000But it's largely like a communication and signaling device.
01:33:18.000That's compared to things like mass non cooperation, like the strike or different types of social ostriasation campaigns and things which are meant to impose direct costs and they do impose costs, right?
01:33:31.000So if you look at things like the Tesla sellbacks and the suggestion to people that they should not buy Teslas or to make showrooms like uncomfortable places for people to be in, therefore they don't go to make showrooms uncomfortable places to be in.
01:33:47.000This is showing up in someone's place of business and not just because it's one thing to say okay we're not going to buy this product i wouldn't buy a george soros product but to make showrooms uncomfortable places to be in and these are the same people and i'm just going to show you guys this on screen i i showed you guys earlier the official you paid for it taxpayers civil resistance advanced course a 312 page guidebook from the u.s government on how to organize riots and block roads and
01:34:17.000deliberately get yourself arrested so that the media can portray you as a martyr.
01:35:30.000I wonder how the left can continuously deflect and blame guns rather than just admit that these events are about mental health, not the tool.
01:35:39.000It's wild because they'll tell you that they have all these mental health problems and then immediately after say, and this is how we should do our structure, our monetary policy going for for the next 15 years.
01:35:48.000It's like, what are you talking about?
01:35:50.000It's just complete, it's nonsense to me.
01:35:52.000But anyways, let's keep going with this right here.
01:36:19.000The corporate media doesn't want to call a spade a spade because that goes against their narrative.
01:36:23.000That and they only care about the quote evil guns not a demon possessed trans dude killing Christians true yeah true that true yeah they got the trans community I've seen a lot of people blaming it on guns as much as they've been blaming it on misgendering like that I've seen more people blaming it on this person getting misgendered than guns.
01:37:02.000I'm like, yeah, I mean, you're totally ignoring the major context in the story where he said he was mad that he convinced himself of this, frustrated with the situation, frustrated that he couldn't back out of the situation because his own community was then going to rally against him and cancel him in all these ways that we just talked about, just removing, removing, or like, I guess holding them accountable.
01:37:23.000Against the same cancel culture that we've heard a thousand times.
01:37:26.000And he says that in the manifesto that was released and people are still saying, no, no, he claimed he was a straight guy.
01:37:33.000Like, what are you guys talking about?
01:37:34.000It's so disingenuous and it's what they've been doing for so long that to have this happen like this and then to go, no, well, it's the guns again..
01:38:12.000Yeah, I mean, the fact that it's some, you know, you can't, it's an apostate situation.
01:38:21.000If you are, if you express any kind of, you know, doubt in the religion, in the ideology, you know, they want to do all they can to disown you or to, you know, discredit you as much as possible.
01:38:50.000Because his political statements were a total cacophony of nonsense in like three different languages.
01:38:56.000Like, he's obviously a lunatic and I don't think we should just take the things that were written in his journal, the manifesto, the guns at face value.
01:40:42.000Like we have people that are saying the craziest stuff and everyone needs they just need to realize that people we're talking to don't care if you write a 500 word response on Twitter.
01:40:50.000They're just going to ignore you and call you an idiot.
01:42:58.000My C well, my Catholic friend who is on the dating scene says that, and granted this is in DC, that she has a hard time finding Catholic men who are not feminine.
01:43:44.000Well, DC is like 93% Democrat, so you, you know, you're probably going to have an overlap there between more effeminate men in DC, regardless of whether they're Catholic or not.
01:43:59.000I don't know if you would agree with my read on this, but do you think that there's an asymmetry in the amount of female Catholic singles compared to male Catholic singles?
01:44:08.000It seems like there is a majority female user base on like any Christian or Catholic dating site.
01:44:33.000So you're saying that the video game community, which is disproportionately men, should mingle with the church community, which is disproportionately single.
01:44:49.000All right, from Brom van Dop, as is tradition, coming in from the delivery room in Vernon, BC, we have two new additions to our family, Abraham and Boaz.
01:45:43.000And I'm happy to announce actually this week.
01:45:46.000I debuted model legislation to help get that out of schools to take out the, quote, media literacy programs that are required.
01:45:56.000This is this idea that if you read the wrong media sources, you are illiterate and they basically ban anyone who watches Tim Cast from being.
01:46:03.000able to access Timcast on a school device or cite it on school research questions, and I am now trying to work to get state legislatures to kick that the smack out.
01:46:17.000All right, from secession now we got Trump is going to send them, okay, well maybe we'll move on to the next one there.
01:47:01.000Well, remember everyone was saying that the Buffalo shooter was right wing because he was into like ethno nationalism, but then he also described himself as a left wing eco fascist.
01:47:12.000Like, yeah, these things are rarely neatly confined to a political box.
01:47:16.000Right, well, they're usually not kind of.
01:47:19.000It's weird because only an academic can kind of build a Jenga tower of logic to twist themselves into like really believing the sort of Karl Marxian, like super far left or the sort of, you know, kind of hyper fascist, like you, only an academic can really like be a true, like cohesive zealot in that way to like pretzel themselves into the logic.
01:47:45.000And so I don't think that these folks are particularly well read about it.
01:47:49.000They just kind of have an instinct that the world is unfair and that they are being sort of persecuted and this is their revenge on the world.
01:47:57.000But I don't think they're necessarily scholars who've ingested or put together a comprehensive mosaic in order to resolve contradictions in any sort of cohesive way.
01:48:07.000From Ted Bundy's Volkswagen, Seth Harp lied in his book, named real names without contacting the individuals.
01:48:14.000He also accused Delta Force of heinous misconduct with no evidence, low-level journalism.
01:48:25.000The history of narco-trafficking and the U.S. Special Forces did not start in 2020, 2021 with these murders.
01:48:37.000The role of the US military in drug trafficking around the world goes back before we even had a Department of Defense, back when it was the Department of War.
01:48:48.000It was the US Department of War that helped traffic drugs in the Golden Triangle in Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam, and also to help the Kuomintang, the Chinese nationalists against the Chinese communists in the nineteen forties.
01:49:07.000They have been in this game for now seven centuries.
01:49:11.000There's a long history of this tie between the military and the narcotics industry.
01:49:18.000We got Mao because of Britain's opium wars.
01:49:21.000Mao was revenge for the century of humiliation for when China refused to buy British drugs.
01:49:28.000And that's how we ended up, the British ended up with Hong Kong.
01:49:30.000They seized Hong Kong and bombed half of the cities on the South China Sea because China refused to buy the drugs that was enforced by the military.
01:49:39.000So I think that in order to solve the drug problem, you have to solve the Fort Bragg problem.
01:49:44.000And I'm happy that these issues are now being amplified.
01:49:48.000And we have another shot at the apple from the disclosures we almost had before Gary Webb shot himself in the back of the head twice.
01:50:16.000It was difficult to discern which of the excerpts from her manifesto were real, but I believe there were also self-contradicting statements in there as well where she was expressing like misandry, like extreme radical feminist views, but also extreme racism.
01:50:40.000And again, I just want to point out, like, I think that's intentional.
01:50:44.000Like, I think the rhetoric is deliberately self-contradictory and chaotic.
01:50:50.000That's because these people are not politically motivated.
01:50:54.000In my opinion, that's just going to piss people off because they're so hasty to jump to a conclusion that's politically expedient and get retweets.
01:51:02.000Do you think a lot of this maybe comes from, like, the, just like the mental cogs crushing against themselves with the cognitive dissonance of all this of like you mentioned with academics being able to structure these logic, these logic trees to eventually say something that is not normally said in regular discourse because they've gone through all the, quote, unquote, rigorous understanding of all these different books and different things that inform the positions that they take so that they can say like, oh, well, I have this because of this.
01:51:31.000And they will cite all these sources to construct this discussion piece for like an academic circle.
01:51:37.000But it like I think the average 22-year-old that's undergoing MTF transition, if you want to call it that, and taking all these exogenous hormones, Lorandi, they're exogenous.
01:51:48.000I don't think they are going to be able, oh, like Nietzsche speaks of this.
01:51:52.000Like they don't have this framework to discuss these things.
01:51:55.000They hear such bombardment every single day of all these things.
01:51:57.000I think it literally grinds your gears.
01:52:00.000And like to what Mary is saying, like they don't know how to cope with this.
01:52:04.000And I think that they just lash out in their anger and their frustration and what they look at what they mentioned.
01:52:09.000Look at all this stuff they said in this in this stuff.
01:52:11.000And what they clearly what they went and did.
01:52:13.000They killed children at a Christian school, regardless of what faith it would be, even like it could be any faith.
01:52:17.000It could be a Hindu study and you went and killed children there.
01:52:20.000Like it would be reprehensible act, regardless.
01:52:22.000But the point is still like I think that this is coming from like be it a demon., I believe it's probably demons.
01:52:28.000I'm sure that you would say the same thing.
01:52:30.000I just, I don't know, I don't know, like, I don't know why everyone's ignoring that.
01:52:34.000It's like, there's definitely, there's definitely some logic there, this person as well, too.
01:52:38.000There's definitely some logic there coming out, but.
01:52:40.000Well, there is this kind of schizophrenic caleidoscope mind phenomenon.
01:53:06.000I've never heard of the guy, but sounds interesting.
01:53:10.000Side note, if you do want to follow along, my alt account that I've been secretly running for the past three years, weirdly is a similar name.
01:53:17.000It's at Mike Ben Cyber on X, also on YouTube and Rumble, but it's not associated with that guy.
01:53:27.000From you mummum make me happy, What if the shooter used a Sig P320?
01:53:37.000it be it would definitely be sigs I had I had to bring that one up for philos uh I'm trying to get through these guys me happy what if the shooter used a cig pee?
01:53:56.000YouTube's giving me the business here.
01:53:58.000It's really been difficult to use today so everyone knows I'm trying to get these chats to pop out and I have to refresh it every single time here so give me a second guys.
01:54:07.000Surge is literally fighting with the computer.
01:54:32.000From the Xbox Gamer, white males in TC are so emasculated by lib women and vilified by new and prolific minorities that extreme behavior, transing, mass pew-pewing is a natural consequence.
01:55:17.000Marvin Sanger is literally a racist feminist.
01:55:20.000You can, I'm just saying it's incredibly uncommon and it would be shocking for someone to be radicalized by that specific ideology into shooting up a school.
01:55:32.000Like it just sounds far fetched to me.
01:55:45.000Remember, John Bolton was the national security advisor and one of the, you know, highest level military and intelligence officials in the U.S. government.
01:55:55.000with huge influence for 40 years in this country over the foreign policy decisions that our Pentagon, our CIA, our State Department, and our humanitarian aid organizations give.
01:56:06.000So when a foreign country or a multinational business or hedge fund wants the American government to do something, they pay a John Bolton type as a consultancy fee or a speaker fee to appear there, but then go back to DC and tell his friends at the Pentagon or the National Security Council or the CIA or the State Department to go do the thing that helps Company X, whether that's Lockheed Martin as a defense contractor.
01:56:33.000John Bolton famously Trump said that if he had kept him for another three months as National Security Advisor, we'd be in World War 6 by now.
01:56:39.000John Bolton, I say this a lot, but find you a woman who looks at you the way that John Bolton looks at predicates to war.
01:56:48.000He threatened the head of the OPCW with that he knew where his kids lived, reportedly by the Chemical Weapons Review when they stood in the way of the war in Iraq.
01:56:58.000How much do you think the weapons industry loves that or the oil industry who relies on the battering ram of the Pentagon to secure their markets or any multinational company or foreign governments who want the U.S. to go after their enemies.
01:57:12.000What you have is a kind of prostitute class with these intelligence officials and national security bigwigs that that they do favors for these stakeholders on the outside while they're going to these big think tank cocktail parties.
01:57:26.000They are getting promised board seats or big fat consultancies or speaker circuit or book deal type arrangements for doing favors for them.
01:57:36.000This is how you have Nikki Haley going from the Trump administration to then being put on the how did her net worth suddenly skyrocket eight million dollars?
01:57:45.000Well, came because she got put on the board of Boeing while she's calling for war.
01:58:17.000Bill Burns was the CIA director for Joe Biden, but he was the second pick.
01:58:20.000You know who the New York Times reported was the top pick for CIA director?
01:58:26.000It was the guy who's currently the head of the BlackRock Investment Institute, the brain for investment decisions inside BlackRock, Tom Donellan.
01:58:37.000Tom Donellan was the national security advisor, the John Bolton for Barack Obama, and he won the CIA Director's Award.
01:58:44.000And then he was asked to be the head of the CIA by Joe Biden in 2021.
01:58:49.000He turned it down because he wanted to continue being a banker.
01:58:52.000He had never done banking in his life.
01:58:54.000He went from the State Department to the CIA and National Security Advisor, National Security Council, straight to the banks who bet on the direction of companies by taking equity investments and serving as hedge funds.
01:59:07.000And so anyway, that's how they make all this money.
01:59:44.000Putin was in Ukraine in control of the Donbass when Trump came back into office.
01:59:49.000That's that might be the most ridiculous super shadow of that.
01:59:52.000But another thing is the glut of oil from Venezuela competes with Russian oil.
01:59:58.000There are some, I think that there is a kind of axis of resistance, but I think Venezuela has also gotten closer to China in this period.
02:00:08.000Brody Sava says, Tim, next time you see Benz., tell him, sorry I missed him when he was in my hometown of New Orleans, as I'm on the road to.
02:00:16.000Maybe next time, yes, in the House of the Rising Sun.
02:00:19.000We'll tell that guy when we have him on here finally to check you out there.
02:00:24.000From Cornelius, butt knuckle, protesters are gay.
02:00:52.000Do you think there's a way that you can maybe make that a credit or a tax credit for people that are not like, that's the premise of school choice policy, yeah.
02:01:01.000Which is that you get the amount that you would spend educating your child in a public school in a stipend that you can either use for educational materials or put it in a 529 plan.
02:03:43.000If you want to follow my spicy alt account, it has nothing to do with the individual, but it's at MikeBenCyber on X. That account also has an associated YouTube and Rumble.
02:09:11.000Christy Noam cutting thousands of DEI wasteful spending contracts.
02:09:16.000So DHS is scrapping thousands of FEMA contracts after billions of dollars in waste and fraud were found.
02:09:23.000The Department of Government Efficiency found FEMA spending on inflated contracts, duplicate services and programs are called fraudulent or unnecessary.
02:09:30.000In response, they're cutting the contracts and boosting oversight.
02:09:33.000The Daily Caller obtained a sample of the contracts flagged by DOGE.
02:09:37.000This is a FEMA spokesperson said any American who opened the books at FEMA and saw their lackluster spending controls and policies would be horrified.
02:09:46.000I wonder if they asked Alex Jones for comment about what was really going on at FEMA.
02:09:54.000to Ready Campaign's media deliverables for public safety announcements, while another $3,3 million funded internal marketing, meant to cajole FEMA employees to complete an annual survey.
02:10:04.000$3,3 million to tell you to fill out a survey.
02:10:11.000I spent the afternoon today with like three other people in the Daily Caller office going through the spreadsheet that we got of all these contracts.
02:10:18.000We were able to review, I think, like sixty of them.
