Gen. Michael Flynn is the former Director of Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) and served as the first National Security Advisor in the Trump administration. He is also the former head of the Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization (JIEDDO) and the Director of National Security for the Department of Defense (DHS). He is a retired lieutenant general and retired lieutenant colonel in the United States Army. He served in the George H.W. Bush administration, the Obama administration, and the Hillary Clinton administration. General Flynn has been a long time member of the conservative movement, and is a dedicated defender of the Constitution and the First Amendment. He has also been a fierce opponent of Hillary Clinton and the liberal agenda. He has been one of the most vocal critics of the Russiagate hoax, and has been on the front lines of the fight against it from day one. Today, he joins me live on the show to talk about his views on the matter, and why he should have been allowed to serve as a member of President Trump's team. He also talks about his thoughts on the Russia investigation, and how it affected him and his family, as well as why he thinks President Trump should have hired him as a replacement for John Brennan.

00:11:38.000So joining us now, retired Army Lieutenant General, former Trump National Security Advisor, Mike Flynn.
00:11:47.000General, it's great to have you on the show.
00:11:50.000I mean, we've spoken a lot in the last couple months.
00:11:53.000You have your great sort of reawakened tour going around the country talking about what's actually going on.
00:11:59.000And I think we're actually at a point now where people are finally seeing it for themselves.
00:12:38.000Perhaps some of the corruption better.
00:12:40.000I know I mentioned in the opening, and my father, I remember him telling me, yeah, I don't know, Obama told me, definitely don't hire that guy.
00:13:53.000I can't defend a guy that did X, Y, Z, whatever they accused someone of.
00:13:56.000You know, magically, you know, Russell Brands now, you know, serial rapist.
00:14:01.000You know, it happened 16 years ago and they were very quiet while he was a celebrity and dating Katy Perry and, you know, yada, yada, yada.
00:14:28.000Yeah. So, first of all, thanks, Donald, for allowing me, you know, a little bit of time on your show.
00:14:32.000You're a great audience. And everything you say in the sort of the lead-in here, this is really about everybody standing up for this country at this moment in history.
00:14:41.000This is an unbelievable time that we face.
00:14:44.000And you're right. And, you know, the interesting thing about what you said about your dad and the conversation he had with Obama, who I think is a, who I still believe is in charge today, What I point to is a very infamous meeting in the Oval Office on the 5th of January of 2017.
00:15:05.000And your great audience, people can go look up that meeting.
00:15:11.000That's the day that I say that the coup actually was initiated.
00:15:17.000So they started... With all of their nonsense during the campaign, where they were spying on the campaign, they had the Russiagate began, you know, actually prior to the convention, so back in the late 2015, 2016.
00:15:32.000This is all evidence. I mean, we know all of this now.
00:15:36.000And then you go into early August, where from the Durham report, we now know 3 August 2016, John Brennan briefed Obama in the White House about the Hillary Clinton dossier, the Hillary Clinton paid for dossier.
00:15:50.000You fast forward to 5 January 2017, and that's the day in the Oval Office, Obama, Biden, Jim Clapper, Director of National Intelligence.
00:16:00.000John Brennan, Director of the CIA. Jim Comey, Director of the FBI. Sally Yates, the Deputy Attorney General for the United States of America.
00:16:07.000And Susan Rice, at the time, the National Security Advisor to Obama.
00:16:11.000During that meeting, during that meeting is when they decided that they were going to Take out my legs, basically take out the National Security Advisor.
00:16:33.000And this is the very famous, you know, which there's so much stuff going on today, but this is where Biden talked about the Logan Act, okay?
00:16:46.000During that meeting, we know this now, you know, through evidence, one of the things that we got out of that meeting On written notes, written notes from that meeting was, what's our objective?
00:16:57.000To get Flynn to lie or to get him fired?
00:17:00.000Basically, so we can undermine Donald Trump, the president, the incoming president.
00:17:05.000And so basically, what they did was they had a strategy on that day, because the very next day, you may recall this, That group of people, minus the President and Vice President and Sally Yates, they came up, and Susan Rice, they came up to the Trump Tower on the 6th of January and briefed us on the Russia dossier, right? And that was the very famous meeting where Comey and your father, your dad, talked about the golden showers bullshit.
00:17:34.000Excuse my Irish. I don't mean to get...
00:17:37.000That one was always amazing to me because I'm like, wait a minute.
00:17:42.000So he's going to go there and have Russian hookers pissing all over him?
00:17:45.000I'm like, I don't know, man. He's reluctant to shake my hand at times.
00:17:50.000You know what I mean? So what they did is that meeting led to their putting...
00:17:57.000As many government resources to include even those while your father was the president in the early days.
00:18:04.000So these people were undermining a duly elected president by taking out the national security adviser that he had decided to bring into the administration early on.
00:18:17.000Well, remember, I not only ran one of the largest intel agencies in the world, Defense Intelligence Agency, but I was also Assistant Director of National Intelligence for a good period of time.
00:18:27.000I had great relationships, and I had deep knowledge of the CIA, FBI, Department of Defense, Department of State.
00:18:36.000So you've got a guy with a broad series and set of experiences coming in To being the National Security Advisor, one of the little things that people don't realize is that all FISA, right, all FISA, for the types of FISA records that come across to the President of the United States, that all this investigation that Mueller and Andrew Wiseman and the Department of Justice was involved in surrounding your dad, and frankly, from the Durham report and the Durham investigation that did come out, the National Security Advisor has access to all that.
00:19:08.000So, you know, there's been things like Flynn knows where the bodies are buried.
00:19:11.000It's not so much, you know, the physical bodies.
00:19:14.000It's knowing how the intelligence community operates, knowing how the Defense Department operates, knowing how these structures and these organizations actually get away with so much craziness.
00:19:27.000And, you know, two things that I had done.
00:19:29.000One I did with Pence, with Vice President Pence prior to coming in.
00:19:36.000I took briefings on all the Black programs, what we call Black programs, which I'm very familiar with.
00:19:46.000I was familiar with many of them while I was the head of DIA. And so I basically, as the National Security Advisor, I'm going to be responsible for all of them.
00:19:56.000Now, there's different organizations that run them.
00:19:59.000Black programs, this is a big deal, Donald, and for your audience to understand sort of when we say where the bodies are buried.
00:20:04.000Black programs are very sensitive, classified programs where nobody has any idea how much money is spent on these things.
00:20:15.000The level of corruption and, frankly, criminal behavior inside of these things, It's just extraordinary.
00:20:21.000And so one of those, among many, are what they call findings, presidential findings.
00:20:27.000And these are the things that if an incoming president isn't aware of these things, trust me, the CIA and the FBI aren't going to tell the incoming president.
00:20:36.000And so I got partially briefed with Pence.
00:20:41.000Coming back in, I got a full laydown of every single one of those.
00:20:45.000Those are things that they do not want anybody to get control of.
00:20:50.000And frankly, there's a lot of people over in Congress that are aware of some of these.
00:20:55.000They call it the gang of eight, which is a couple of senators and a couple of congressmen, the Speaker of the House, the President of the Senate.
00:21:02.000These guys get briefed on the majority of these things.
00:21:05.000So I lay that out because on the 5th of January, and then when you go back to the meeting between Obama and your dad, you have to say, why is Flynn such a threat?
00:21:17.000Flynn is such a threat because Flynn knows exactly how and where these things are at.
00:21:23.000And if they don't get me out really quickly, so if they didn't get me out when they did, there would have been no Mueller investigation.
00:21:34.000If I had stayed as a national security advisor, there would have been no Mueller investigation.
00:21:39.000None. Because none of that bullshit, none of that crap would have seen the light of day because I would have been digging into that.
00:21:47.000So they had to get rid of me. And they did in about three weeks.
00:21:51.000And then fast forward and all the things that you talked about with cancel culture.
00:21:55.000I mean, the amount of pressure and the amount of resources every single, you know, you can't imagine the amount of government resources that were brought.
00:22:04.000I mean, you can. I mean, your audience.
00:23:38.000My wife has seven. I've got over 50 nieces and nephews.
00:23:42.000I have, you know, mothers-in-laws and, you know, I mean, extended families between my wife and I. I mean, they go after everybody.
00:23:51.000Talk about canceling. I've had the Bank of UnAmerica cancel me.
00:23:56.000I've had Citibank cancel me, Chase Bank.
00:23:58.000And then the cost of the legal battles was extraordinary.
00:24:02.000It was actually north of $7 million because it also cost me my home.
00:24:09.000All that aside, those are things, because the American people came to my aid, and thank God for the American people, but the battle is not over, right?
00:24:19.000We are still in this, you know, you talked about Russell Brand and some of the other things that are just ongoing.
00:24:25.000I mean, the left is not going to stop, Donald.
00:24:28.000And what we have to do is everybody has to understand, look, In order to beat this leftist Marxist group of thugs, and that's what they are, they're Marxist thugs as far as I'm concerned, but because of the weak, pathetic leadership that we have in the White House right now, which doesn't deserve to be there and shouldn't be there, We have a global alliance forming against the United States of America, and that global alliance is very real.
00:24:53.000It's the global economic alliance in organizations like the BRICS, like Brazil, Russia, India, China, South America.
00:25:02.000The recent BRICS summit that they held about two or three weeks ago It included countries that represent about 75% of the world's population.
00:25:13.000I mean, think about that. That are now starting to align against the United States of America because of the weak, pathetic leadership that we have in the White House.
00:25:23.000And frankly, not just in the White House, because it's all across.
00:25:25.000I mean, you know, the institution of the military...
00:25:31.000And I look at the military and I'm saying to myself, Jesus, what is going on at the top tier of our military leadership?
00:25:38.000Because I know you guys and your entire family has always cherished our veterans and cherished our military.
00:25:44.000And I know you guys, you particularly do a lot of stuff for our veterans and you're out there engaging them all the time and supporting them.
00:25:52.000And I mean, it kills me when I see what our military is going through.
00:25:56.000How did that happen? Because I mean, that didn't...
00:25:59.000I guess it got accelerated under Trump.
00:26:20.000You know, you saw what they tried to do to you to take you out.
00:26:24.000And again, they do it in a way that makes it very difficult for anyone to come to your defense, even if, you know, five years later, it's all bullshit.
00:26:31.000Oh, well, guess what? They're not giving you a reimbursement for the $7 million or for the cost.
00:26:36.000They didn't do it for, you know, the $100 million my father has spent on his defense of these things.
00:27:12.000They're gonna get destroyed by the same people, and yet, we make the distinction between the guys on the ground doing the door kicking, because those guys, I think, probably think much like us.
00:27:22.000But the military leadership, how did that happen?
00:27:26.000I mean, you were there as probably some of this started happening, but when, like, I don't believe that any of these generals, even the ones that are pushing it now, you know, 15 years ago, Yeah, huge. Huge recruitment problem.
00:28:00.000How did it start and how does it continue, given sort of the clear backlash from the people who actually want to serve their country, not sign up, you know, to get a trans operation and not have to actually ever see a war zone because of it?
00:28:29.000Not go in and participate for 10 years, 20 years.
00:28:33.000And, you know, and again, anybody that knows me, anybody that served with me, you know, I've always been very blunt, very, you know, cut to the chase.
00:30:12.000You know, it's like, I guess you can't get ahead now if you don't fall in line, but I mean, not only is that going to be a disaster for morale and recruitment, but for efficacy, because your point is right.
00:30:23.000That force in my mind, and you know, I don't know much about it, but you do, so I'll take your words, is designed to win wars.
00:30:29.000We haven't exactly been doing that as of late.
00:30:33.000And yet there's no consequence for inaction or for getting Americans killed for 20 years, spending trillions of dollars, and basically pulling out in embarrassment.
00:30:49.000I mean, recruiting down particularly in the United States Army.
00:30:51.000But, you know, when we start to see things like the enforced training of diversity, equity, and inclusion or critical race theory, I mean, these things, I'm not going to say that racism doesn't exist.
00:31:06.000But the idea, and I will tell you, the military, it is a bastion of conservatism and always has been because these are people who are joining the military because they love our country and they want to serve, right?
00:31:19.000So typically you're going to have that kind of But what they're trying to do now, the Marxist left in our country, which is really in control of our country right now, and I don't want anybody to think that this is some politics as usual right now.
00:31:34.000America is at a crossroads, and we either face a path towards socialism or communism, or we stay on this path towards democracy and a constitutional republic.
00:31:46.000Inside of our military, they are trying very, very hard to change the culture, and they're trying to get it down into the rank and file.
00:31:53.000And I know that they're running into a big headwind because the rank and file in the military, you know, the sergeants, the soldiers, the operators, they don't like this stuff.
00:32:03.000They don't like it. And believe me, I talked to a lot of them.
00:32:05.000I'm still in touch with a lot of guys and gals in the military.
00:32:09.000But at the top tier, it's like you accept those positions and you're told, here's what you're going to do.
00:32:15.000Here's the line that you're going to tow.
00:32:17.000I can tell you from personal experience with Obama, under the Obama administration, where I said, no, ISIS is not— You know, on the run, you know, even though bin Laden's dead, remember the very famous Obama, bin Laden's dead, al-Qaeda's on the run.
00:32:33.000That was a lie. That was total bullshit at the time, total bullshit.
00:32:39.000It had expanded into countries all over Africa, all over the Middle East, and certainly back in Afghanistan.
00:32:46.000And it really took your father coming in and doing some serious damage against ISIS and against some of the leaders, as well as some of the leaders in Iran.
00:32:55.000The crew that's in there now, what they want to do is they want to kowtow to everything that you and I, guys like you and I, and millions and millions of other people believe in, the enemies of our country.
00:33:08.000And these are people that are willing to get into bed with organizations or countries like Iran, like Hezbollah, like Hamas.
00:33:19.000And our military leaders, if you get selected at the three and four star level, or for some of these big agencies, or some of these big ticket jobs, you know, they're checking you out and making sure that you're going to toe the line for them.
00:33:31.000And if you don't, you're not going to get into those positions, particularly the chiefs of the services or the chairman of the Joint Chiefs.
00:33:37.000I hate to say that because I want to be able to tell young men and women who are looking for something to do, I love to tell them, go join the military.
00:33:45.000You know, you have a great experience.
00:33:49.000Hell, kids that still want to go to West Point or Annapolis or the Air Force Academy, I still write letters for them because I just believe in the institution so much.
00:33:58.000But today, Donald, we have a very, very serious problem.
00:34:03.000And when the United States Army, never mind the other services, the United States Army cannot meet its recruiting goals, the downstream effect of that puts America at a grave risk.
00:34:15.000You know, never mind what's happening over in Ukraine and this foolishness that we're involved in, or what might happen in the Pacific with China and Taiwan.
00:34:26.000And frankly, the border invasion, which is a border invasion, it's not a drug problem, it's a border invasion.
00:34:32.000And what's happening in places like Panama right now, the Panama Canal, I'd like to talk about Ukraine a little bit, because instead of focusing on combating a threat from...
00:34:56.000You know, China, you know, real enemies, like people who are really looking to displace us.
00:35:00.000We're busy subsidizing the Ukrainian government.
00:35:04.000I want to play a quick clip from 60 Minutes last now, because, I mean, even liberal 60 Minutes, And it turns out the U.S. government is literally funding everything in the Ukraine, from the salaries of firemen and small businesses to entrepreneurs.
00:35:21.000I'm going to get my team to play this clip, and I want to get your reaction, because given the economy in America, given the amount of Americans that are having a hard time getting by in the Obama-slash-Bidenomics-disastrous liberal-bullshit policy stuff, How is this even possible?
00:35:39.000And that 60 Minutes played it is something.
00:35:41.000So check out this clip. I got to get your reaction.
00:35:44.000American taxpayers are financing more than just weapons.
00:35:48.000We discovered the U.S. government's buying seeds and fertilizer for Ukrainian farmers.
00:35:55.000And covering the salaries of Ukraine's first responders, all 57,000 of them.
00:36:02.000That includes the team that trains this rescue dog, named Joy, to comb through the wreckage of Russian strikes looking for survivors.
00:36:12.000And the US also funds the divers, who we saw clearing unexploded ammunition from the country's rivers to make them safe again for swimming and fishing.
00:36:24.000Russia's invasion shrank Ukraine's economy by about a third.
00:36:28.000We were surprised to find that to keep it afloat, the U.S. government is subsidizing small businesses.
00:36:37.000Okay, so, I mean, it's like, what should Americans think that their government is doing more to help Ukraine than to secure our own border?
00:36:46.000It's like, I feel like I'm being punked every day and yet it keeps happening.
00:36:52.000We're being punked to the tune of over $200 billion.
00:36:56.000$200 billion now that has been sunk and lost.
00:37:00.000You know, what's interesting about that clip is, you know, women out buying jackets and shoes and people walking on a sunny day on the side streets and drinking coffee or wine at a cafe.
00:37:12.000I mean, something not right here, Don.
00:37:15.000Hey, I'm no soldier, General, but it does not feel like what I envision a war zone to look like.
00:37:22.000I keep hearing about it, but it feels like it's just like a, you know, An elite takeover of a farmland, right?
00:37:28.000They're going to take over the country.
00:37:30.000Looking for mines in a river so people can go fishing and swimming.
00:37:33.000If this is a true war zone, and I call this a limited objective war, and honestly, it really started under Obama in 2010.
00:37:42.000February of 2014, anybody in your audience can go look back at that right after the Sochi Olympics was the initial attack by the Russians under Obama because of his weak leadership.
00:37:53.000And all they did is after your father left the White House, they took advantage of the weak leadership again under Biden and they did the same thing.
00:38:01.000The number one thing that has to happen if we're going to continue with this just literally Excuse me, but pissing away money, over $200 billion now that we're talking, is there has to be objectives.
00:38:15.000I mean, this White House has not even stated what the objectives are for why we're involved.
00:38:21.000We know about bio labs, and let me tell you a couple other things about Ukraine.
00:38:26.000And this is, you know, all known, this is all well known by our State Department, by the Defense Department.
00:38:31.000It is a human trafficking, it's probably one of the leading human trafficking nations in the world.
00:38:37.000Weapons smuggling, drug trafficking, the narcotics trade that goes through Ukraine.
00:38:42.000We know about the bio labs that our, principally our Defense Department has been involved in.
00:39:59.000Canada's Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, and Zelensky all gave...
00:40:05.000And the Canadian Parliament gave a standing ovation to a literal Nazi, an SS soldier.
00:40:12.000The same government that said, you know, truckers that were honking their horns, honk honk, was apparently an ode to Heil Hitler, is what they tried saying for months.
00:40:23.000They're now giving multiple, actually, standing ovations to an SS officer who worked a Nazi.
00:40:32.000The people who called conservatives, any conservative, a Nazi for the last seven years, they're actually giving standing ovations to real Nazi, in my opinion, war criminals.
00:40:43.000Here's a video in case anyone is doubting that this actually happened.
00:40:47.000The mainstream media tried to cover it up like, well, he was Nazi-linked.
00:40:53.000And then it was proven, even Twitter community notes actually got this one.
00:40:56.000No, he was actually a Waffen-SS officer.
00:41:02.000The guy reading pauses when he realizes that they're honoring someone, I guess because he fought the Russians, who I actually thought were sort of our allies in World War II. Maybe my history is a little bit fuzzy, but now they're honoring someone simply because he fought Russians in World War II, who was a Nazi SS officer.
00:41:22.000Check this out. I got to hear your reaction after this, because it's mind-boggling to me, given what they've said for the last few years.
00:41:29.000today, Ukrainian Canadians, Ukrainian Canadian World Veteran from the Second
00:41:34.000World War who fought the Ukrainian independence against the Russians and
00:41:40.000continues to support the troops today even at his age of 98.
00:41:47.000He's the guy who fought one of our allies.
00:42:02.000Yeah, and they're honoring a literal Nazi.
00:43:44.000And that's where that's why Russia, Russia, Russia, it has everything to do with the racket called the military industrial complex, the security state complex and all the things that we're up against today.
00:43:57.000And I mean this. I mean, these are things that these are big ticket items.
00:44:01.000How dare they go after—now I'm focusing on you and your family—how dare they go after a president of the United States that did so much, didn't have to do any of it, like we all know, comes into politics, wins the presidency, does a lot for this country, and he does it in a way where—like him or hate him.
00:45:06.000Probably a couple hundred million Americans now because a lot of people come up to me just like they come up to you and they say, I'm afraid.
00:45:13.000I'm afraid for what's happening to our country.
00:45:35.000We're going to do it. No, they're not.
00:45:37.000These people are going to triple down in between now and then.
00:45:40.000How dare they go after a former president of the United States?
00:45:43.000What we typically do with former presidents is we get them involved in maybe diplomatic issues.
00:45:50.000Hey, Trump created peace in the Middle East.
00:45:53.000Maybe you'd let him handle this, but they have no interest in that.
00:45:58.000I mean, when he did the CNN town hall, you had the left ridiculing and be like, hey man, I just want the death on all sides to stop.
00:46:05.000How dare you? I mean, death without the total destruction of every Russian in existence That's not an end result we're okay with.
00:46:15.000But our support for Ukraine, it's never-ending.
00:46:18.000And it's not even clear to me what the mission is.
00:46:21.000Again, when Trump said that about stopping their death, that wasn't enough.
00:46:24.000We must totally obliterate them or something like that.
00:46:29.000We're giving them missiles. We're helping them strike Russian forces.
00:46:32.000We're sending tanks. We're essentially combatants in a war against one of the world's largest nuclear powers.
00:46:39.000How do you think the risk of Russia using nukes, potentially, whether it's tactical or otherwise, escalates given, you know, we're not even fighting a proxy war anymore.
00:46:52.000We don't even want to use the word nuclear, but this administration, and we've heard from the Russians as well, this is probably the most, in my lifetime, the most use of the word nuclear that I've ever seen.
00:47:07.000I mean, when you think about the crisis, the Cuban Missile Crisis, where there was some discussion then, There was talk about the capabilities and the START treaties and all that sort of stuff, but we're talking about the use of nuclear weapons, and both sides are using them.
00:47:23.000We hear it right out of our own damn president right now.
00:47:30.000There is none from the United States, from the White House.
00:47:33.000There's no stated mission, and there are clearly no stated vital national security objectives, what we call vital national security objectives from this White House.
00:47:42.000And you just wonder, you say to yourself, why the hell are we there?
00:47:46.000What is it that we're trying to accomplish?
00:47:47.000How long is this thing going to go on?
00:47:49.000What is it that we're exactly trying to achieve?
00:47:53.000And why are we spending over $200 billion now?
00:47:57.000We just lost almost $100 billion of equipment in Afghanistan.
00:48:06.000We had 13 brave Americans as well as many others wounded, but we had 13 brave Americans killed unnecessarily when we basically surrendered to the Taliban and retreated under fire and left Americans behind enemy lines.
00:48:22.000So you led military intelligence efforts during the Afghan war, right?
00:48:27.000So looking back at that withdrawal, and we can all agree it was a disaster, and you were no longer involved in that for quite some time, but looking back at how the war ended, what were the major mistakes made, and what should have been done instead?
00:48:39.000Because you're right, it was a fiasco.
00:48:41.000It was a disaster. I remember my nine-year-old son, I think he was nine at the time when it happened, he's asking me, Hey, Dad, why would we leave $86 billion in equipment?
00:49:27.000Like, did they think there was gonna be like a Taliban trans coalition over here?
00:49:31.000What's going on? Yeah, they're not incompetent.
00:49:36.000What they are is they have a completely different set of beliefs.
00:49:40.000I mean, when you see human beings grabbing the tires of a C-17, you know, aircraft taken off from an airfield, I mean...
00:49:51.000How can we allow ourselves to get there?
00:49:54.000One of the data points from Afghanistan, not just the $85 billion or $100 billion, that made the Taliban one of the strongest militaries in the top 10 in the world when we left.
00:50:06.000Honest to God, I think it was number three at one time.
00:50:09.000But one monetary stat from Afghanistan, we spent more money In Afghanistan in the time that we were there than was spent on the Marshall Plan to rebuild all of Europe after World War II in today's dollars.
00:50:26.000That alone ought to tell you the waste, fraud, and abuse that we had there.
00:50:33.000And the way that we departed Afghanistan was embarrassing.
00:50:37.000And frankly, it began this sort of process, this sort of path of failure.
00:50:44.000And this is really where I do have a lot of angst with our senior military leadership.
00:50:49.000Because at a certain point in time, if you're standing in a room And you're like looking at this and you're going, well, wait a second.
00:50:55.000This isn't right. This isn't the way we should be pulling out of here.
00:50:57.000And the president or some secretary of state or some group of civilians is sitting there telling you, this is what you're going to do.
00:51:03.000Shut up and sit down. You know, then you take, you know, your stars that are on your shoulder and you throw them on the desk and you say, look, I'm not going to be part of this.
00:51:15.000I can tell you it's not a moral order because it's not morally correct to do something like that because you're about to leave citizens, particularly American citizens, behind.
00:51:25.000So we don't have the bold, courageous leaders personally in our military and in those areas right now that are willing to say, hey, look, this is bullshit.
00:51:36.000We can't have this forced diversity, equity, and this inclusive stuff.
00:51:43.000The DEI, they call it, force down the throats of our soldiers.
00:51:49.000Again, be prepared for, train, and win our nation's wars.
00:51:53.000If we're not ready for that, if we're not ready to win, then we should stop everything else that we're doing and go back to the training fields and start training.
00:52:02.000Go back to the ranges and start shooting.
00:52:04.000Go back and start taking care of our Of our military to be able to go out there, because I'm going to tell you, right now, as far as I'm concerned, NATO, NATO's doing nothing.
00:52:14.000They're doing nothing. Now, they all get all pissed off at me saying that, but I want to see the bottom lines.
00:52:19.000I want to see the bottom lines of what every NATO country is spending right now to support Ukraine.
00:52:26.000They're not stupid. They realize America under Biden is a big schmuck.
00:52:30.000It's why they went crazy when Trump was like, hey, you're going to pay your fair share, like literally not more than your fair share, but like what you've agreed to in paper.
00:53:27.000You have this. These feel like fighting age men.
00:53:31.000Can you talk about the national security threat of this border invasion and what it's creating?
00:53:37.000Yeah, and on the battlefield, we call them military-aged men, MAMs, military-aged men.
00:53:43.000The numbers of military-aged men that are coming into our country, I mean, we think we have had in the last two years, we think that there's somewhere between five and six million illegals that have actually gotten into the country.
00:53:55.000It's probably more than that, you know, with the numbers that are being caught, you know, they call them the getaways.
00:54:02.000I mean, so we're looking at five to six million.
00:54:05.000Let's just say, let's just say, A third of those are military-aged men.
00:54:09.000So we're looking at a couple of million Military-aged men.
00:54:13.000And you say to yourself, where the hell are they going?
00:54:16.000And we see these encampments in the urban cities around this country.
00:54:22.000And what happens is they get grabbed up by some of the gangs that are running these.
00:54:54.000The Chinese nationals caught are up, I think it's like 300%.
00:54:58.000I mean, is China taking advantage of this open border, or are these just people looking to escape China?
00:55:04.000No, no. And the other thing about, you know, who are these people and where are they coming from?
00:55:09.000They're coming from, because China's not going to let just like, oh yeah, go on, you know, go have freedom over in America.
00:55:15.000These are people that are going to come over here and do bad things to this country.
00:55:19.000And some of them are being sent over here intentionally.
00:55:22.000The others, like when you think about some of these other countries, particularly, you know, there's 164 different nations now that we have caught There's only like 190 nations on the planet.
00:55:35.000We have 164 that have been identified.
00:55:38.000So it's not just Chinese, but the Chinese have really gone up.
00:55:41.000But these are people coming out of their prisons, coming out of their insane asylums.
00:55:44.000I mean, we know this. We know this because this is the kind of evidence and information that's being presented by organizations like the CBP. I mean, the great border patrol agents that we have They have their hands so tied, and they're not able to do the job that they can do.
00:56:00.000And frankly, they need better leadership, and they need top cover leadership from the White House on down.
00:56:06.000But we're looking at people coming into our country.
00:56:08.000We don't really have a clue who these people are.
00:56:23.000One of the big, big gangs in this country that does bring some of these individuals in and they have them join their various gangs in the cities.
00:56:31.000I mean, the rise of crime, we have over 100,000.
00:56:34.000And I think the number, the 100,000 that I'm giving you right now is like, that's a July number.
00:57:01.000And one of the things that I would seriously like to see our Congress consider, certainly this White House or a future White House, your dad particularly, we have to look at designating these cartels down in Mexico as terrorist organizations and start treating them as such.
00:57:17.000Because if we don't, we're never going to We're never going to deal with this problem, and people are just going to continue to flow.
00:57:23.000We can build a wall, and a wall does matter.
00:57:26.000Fences around my property matter, right?
00:57:29.000It keeps people out. Walls around our country matter.
00:57:32.000It keeps people out. But now we've got, like I said, 5 to 6 million coming into this country.
00:57:41.000Coming from other countries that are not fans of the United States of America, and you have to wonder, why are they letting these people out of their countries to come to America?
00:57:50.000And it's easy. And one last thing on that is that these people are getting credit cards to use.
00:57:56.000They're being given lists of non-governmental organizations that can help them out.
00:58:01.000They're actually, in some cases, if they apply, they can get upwards of $2,200 a month in some kind of government grant stipend or whatever.
00:58:12.000And you, the American taxpayer, have the privilege of paying for it all.
00:58:17.000You get to pay for your family, you get to pay for this, you get to diminish your services that you actually pay for and fund the invasion, I guess.
00:58:28.000Every bit of it. Speaking of China, I read an article today that China has recently been buying up a lot of real estate all over America.
00:58:36.000They now own about 380,000 acres of land throughout the U.S. That makes them probably a top five landowner in all of America.
00:58:47.000I know you've been keeping an eye on the trend, but what's the endgame there?
00:59:09.000What China does, first of all, they essentially create shell companies that appear like they are US-owned companies.
00:59:17.000They create these shell companies, and then these shell companies get into the real estate markets.
00:59:21.000The other critical thing about this is where the land is being purchased.
00:59:25.000And if you look around the country, it tends to be close to military installations, which is a very dangerous thing.
00:59:35.000Also, I just learned, I was up in Michigan not too long ago, and the Chinese just purchased a giant piece of property to build two plants, working with the crazy governor up there, Whitmer.
00:59:46.000Two giant plants that are going to be building electric batteries for electric cars in the future.
00:59:52.000And I mean, the factories themselves are like 55,000 square feet.
00:59:59.000It's a Chinese CCP-owned organization in the state of Michigan.
01:00:03.000I use that as an example of one of many.
01:00:06.000Any governor, red state or blue state governor, that is allowing the CCP to buy property in this country, we need to stop that.
01:00:16.000This is where the State Department, where the White House steps in and says, no mas, right?
01:00:21.000No more. We're not going to do this anymore.
01:00:23.000And in fact, we're going to look at every piece of property that's been purchased by a communist country in the United States of America for whatever purpose, right?
01:00:32.000For whatever purpose, because the more that they're given, the more that they're going to take.
01:00:42.000They are an adversary, as far as I'm concerned, because China has a goal of global domination.
01:00:49.000China has a goal of taking over the U.S. dollar as the currency of choice for this country, and China has a goal of dominating the United States of America.
01:00:58.000This I'm not talking about by the end of the century.
01:01:02.000I'm talking about in the next 10 years.
01:01:42.000The Chinese government owns the Sears.
01:01:44.000These are icons of American property, American real estate, and Americana, and were for the better part of 50 years, and now the Chinese government owns them.
01:01:55.000So we have to pay very close attention to this and not allow any more of this to happen.
01:01:58.000Yeah, I mean, you know, that's bad, you know, because of the historical significance.
01:02:02.000But, I mean, I'm more concerned about the farmland, the land around our military bases that are clearly being used to spy and or eventually maybe set up or whatever, or to damage our ability to feed ourselves.
01:02:41.000You know, one thing, again, I would just caution everybody.
01:02:45.000We're not in a time—like, I can't sit here and tell you that the—unless something changes overnight, I'm not going to sit here and tell you that the next election is going to be a fair election.
01:02:57.000These people will do whatever they can to stay in power.
01:03:02.000And like I say, there's this global alliance that has formed against the United States of America because of the weak, pathetic leadership that we currently have.
01:03:11.000And they're going to take advantage of that in the coming months here.
01:03:15.000I mean, the things that they're doing to your father, who's a former president of the United States, this is unprecedented.
01:03:23.000All the things that we've talked about here, the border, You know, the border invasion, what's happened in Ukraine, the failure of our deployments and war over in Afghanistan, what the Chinese are trying to do in this country, what the Chinese are doing to our country with the application of fentanyl and just killing—I mean, over 100,000—that's just this year—and probably more.
01:03:49.000And that doesn't describe those that are debilitated by fentanyl because it doesn't just kill, it also maims people.
01:03:57.000So all of this sort of body of just insanity that we are dealing with, we're dealing with a regime in the White House that has no intention of letting up.
01:04:10.000So they don't have any intention of letting up.
01:04:12.000And I need your audience to understand that.
01:04:15.000And all of the noise that we hear out there about from the Republican Party, which I'm not a fan of the Republican Party.
01:04:26.000I'm not a fan of either. I'm not a fan of the parties at all, to be honest with you.
01:04:31.000And if people don't smarten up, And really take on and really raise their voices, you know, and use the platforms that they have at local level, at state level.
01:04:43.000I wish we had more governors that would step up and really show some guts.
01:04:48.000I think Paxton out in Texas there with his fight through the impeachment process was a really good example of somebody who stood up.
01:04:55.000You, your family are examples of people who have stood up.
01:04:59.000You know, I like to think that myself and my family are examples of people who have stood up and show that we can beat these people.
01:05:13.000I mean, I hate to think that the people that I knew in the FBI, that the whole of the FBI was like what we're seeing right now.
01:05:21.000I hate to think that the people that I worked in the intel agencies For many, many years, all of them are like the leaders that we see that are currently running these organizations.
01:05:30.000I don't want to think that they are, but the cultures in those organizations have to change.
01:05:36.000They have to change. If they don't change, then they have to be eliminated in some cases.
01:05:41.000And I mean that, because these cultures are so corrupt right now.
01:05:45.000And what we've learned about censorship, about the cancel culture...
01:05:51.000All these things, they matter, and they matter a lot as we go forward between now and the election in November.
01:05:59.000And the election in November isn't going to happen because we sprinkle fairy dust and poof, the better candidate is going to win.
01:06:05.000It's only going to happen in a fair way if we continue to fight through all this stuff.
01:06:11.000And one of the things that I'm encouraged by is this recent finding about Smartmatic.
01:06:17.000Which is one of the companies that's out there that there was some recent legal findings about Smartmatic.
01:06:23.000I find that, you know, I think that's a good thing.
01:06:25.000And there's some judges out there that are beating back, you know, these guys that are going after our First Amendment and our Second Amendment rights.
01:06:33.000So anyway, these are all things that matter.
01:06:35.000These are things that I think that are going to come into play here in the next couple of months, particularly as we go through.
01:07:38.000You've been out there standing up, and I think that's important.
01:07:41.000I want to apologize also. The fire alarm in the building's going off, so I got to deal with that nonsense, of course.
01:07:47.000I'm like, what the hell is going on here?
01:07:48.000But, you know, you've been talking about that.
01:07:50.000You've been outspoken. You have a reawakened tour.
01:07:53.000I know you're coming to Trump Doral in October.
01:07:55.000You know, I think it's that message of the ability to actually stand up and to push back and to talk about these things that so many people We're pushed into a corner.
01:08:05.000They were told to be afraid. They're going to come after you.
01:08:07.000But I think once people realize how many more there are just like them, sick of what's going on, sick of the insanity, wanting to push back, and once those people do, let's just say, reawaken and actually start pushing back, they can't cancel everyone.
01:08:22.000What do you think is driving the popularity of these events, and where can people go to learn more about them?
01:08:28.000Yeah, great. So they can go to timetofreeamerica.com, timetofreeamerica.com, and you can get tickets.
01:08:36.000You know, the one in October 13, 14 that you're showing on the screen there at the Trump Doral, October 13, 14 is going to be a great event.
01:08:44.000I mean, a wonderful event. We'll probably have 3,000 to 4,000 people there.
01:12:00.000These women are coming forward to accuse him...
01:12:03.000I think it's 13 or 16 years later, right as Russell is starting to challenge the system on foreign policy and other issues like big pharma and vaccines and incorporation inside Insanity, corruption inside of governments, corruption inside our corporations at the highest levels.
01:12:26.000YouTube already demonetized Russell Brand's show.
01:12:29.000So if you're watching YouTube and getting your stuff there, find other places because they're definitely not a champion of free speech.
01:12:34.000You've seen that. But Rumble is standing strong.
01:12:39.000Chris Pawlowski revealed last week that a member of British Parliament...
01:12:44.000A member of British Parliament sent Rumble a letter demanding that he demonetize Brand as well as everyone else who threw him out on accusations.
01:13:09.000Maybe Andrew Tate. They tried canceling.
01:13:11.000How many others have they tried canceling?
01:13:14.000You know, the corporations going after Tucker and the, you know, the accusations on Donald Trump, you know, because magically they appear 20 years later.
01:13:21.000The second you put an R next to your name or you stand up to those big entities.
01:13:26.000After Rumble said, back off, we're not demonetizing or deplatform anyone, Burger King and other sponsors like HelloFresh, all of which have their own issues that we'll probably start talking about ad nauseum, announced that they would no longer be advertising on Rumble.
01:13:43.000So they didn't just cancel someone who says he didn't do something that random people just accused him of.
01:15:28.000Watch this clip from ABC News this week.
01:15:30.000You know, their regime propaganda, sure, but even they have to be fed up and sick of it.
01:15:37.000Check this out. Overwhelmingly say they are not feeling good about the economy and that the president is to blame.
01:15:47.000Just 30% approve of his performance on the economy, a career low, largely dragged down by pocketbook issues for families, like food prices that have risen 4.3% since last year.
01:16:01.000Our poll showing more than 9 in 10 Americans rating them negatively.
01:16:07.000Voters across the country telling ABC News they are frustrated.
01:16:11.000It costs a lot more to buy a loaf of bread these days.
01:16:14.000We're all trying to survive. We can't even work two jobs at this point and try to make it.
01:16:18.000I don't think that anybody is really paying attention to the working man.
01:16:21.000Many upset about gas and energy prices after a brutally hot summer.
01:16:27.000The national average for a gallon of unleaded gasoline this week hitting $3.88 per gallon, according to AAA, the highest level in nearly a year.
01:16:39.000We just drove through California yesterday.
01:16:54.000Immigration. The Biden administration attempting to mitigate yet another surge at the southern border as more big cities navigate the impact of the migrant crisis.
01:17:05.000This issue will destroy New York City.
01:17:08.000Authorities announcing there were more than 232,000 migrant encounters at the southern border in August, the highest monthly total this year.
01:17:18.000The president says his policies are working.
01:18:46.000Don't believe he has the mental fitness to be president, shockingly, shockingly, and are suffering under the cost of his failing Bidenomics agenda.
01:18:56.000But the news is only getting worse for Democrats.
01:18:59.000But that also means that we have to be more aware of the dirty tricks that will inevitably be coming in 2024.
01:19:08.000And before I hop over to locals, I'm looking at the live chat, and I'm going to take a couple more of your questions, because you had some good ones along the way.
01:19:18.000Again, the trolls were out in full force and effect, which means they're probably trying to discredit General Flynn again.
01:19:26.000And I think he's right about all of it.
01:19:29.000He was one of the first guys that was targeted, and I think there's a reason for that.
01:19:34.000And if you still think that's a coincidence, folks, you haven't been watching.
01:19:40.000So, K-Wolf, don't underestimate how stupid some people are.
01:21:13.000You have to sort of go through all of these things and figure out what's going on.
01:21:18.000But I think what was important And perhaps good about the Russia, Russia, Russia stuff is that you spun up the whole world for four years and it turns out to be all bullshit.
01:21:29.000Anyone who is paying attention is now aware of just how bad that is.
01:21:34.000Anyone who... Watch that now has lost faith in those institutions that they should have otherwise trusted.
01:21:42.000Yeah, this is a big one. I keep seeing it.
01:21:49.000Obviously, great political pundit, great pollster, certainly much more intelligent and much more in tune with the populace than anyone in the mainstream media and any of the polling organizations.
01:23:23.000Okay, good. Will DJT pardon the J6ers?
01:23:27.000Damn right. Now again, if someone's out there punching cops, they're probably Antifa pretending to be J6ers, but the people that were held there without due process, I mean, they should be released and compensated, frankly, from our government for the insanity that's going on, but that's never going to happen. Congrats, Junior.
01:23:49.000Yeah, the trolls wouldn't be all over the thing if Flynn wasn't over the target.
01:25:15.000It's going too fast now, so let's see.
01:25:18.000The Russell Brand. Before I was indifferent to Rumble, but with the Russell Brand thing, I've got to admit, I'll be moving away from YouTube.
01:25:25.000Hey guys, YouTube, literally the worst censor of that.
01:25:27.000They demonetize fishing content now because it's cruelty to animals.
01:25:31.000You know, it... I guess Google's probably the worst, you know, just in terms of the search engine optimization and just search and how they hide stuff.
01:25:39.000You saw how they hid Rumble's covering of the RNC and the debates last week.
01:25:45.000But, yeah, Rumble actually means it more so than any of the others.
01:25:49.000I think Twitter's made a little bit of an effort.
01:25:52.000But, you know, some of those guys are still beholden to the App Store, right?
01:25:55.000If you don't do that, they'll take you off the App Store, and so that's how they regulate it.
01:25:59.000Rumble's the one going all in on free speech.
01:26:04.000It's not unreasonable to say, hey, maybe we're not going to demonetize, we're not going to fire, we're not going to stop someone from being able to make money based on 16- or 13-year-old accusations and nothing else just yet.
01:26:23.000I mean... You know, by that logic, I mean, I could go around and accuse every leftist of something that they did to me as a child when I met them in New York City, and they have to be...
01:26:36.000It would only go one way against people speaking out against the regime, not those willing to do their bidding.
01:26:41.000So the whole Russell Brand thing is absolutely insane, and I'm glad that Rumble had the balls to fight back, and Russell actually said that.
01:26:51.000But, you know, everyone else, YouTube, oh, you're canceled.
01:26:54.000You can't make any money. You can't defend yourself.
01:26:56.000God, we're just going to believe someone from 16 years ago.
01:26:58.000They were quiet for 16 years, but now, now magically, magically...
01:27:32.000If you look at Russia or Ukraine, the mentality of the people, probably not all that different, but the leadership, Zelensky, actor, new homeowner all over the world, billions of dollars, they can control that much more than they can Putin.
01:29:49.000If you want to have your money working for the stuff you believe in rather than being weaponized against you, go to patriotmobile.com slash triggered.
01:29:59.000You get fast, free activation, and you can vote with your wallet.
01:30:55.000You know, if you're not part of big corporate, you see what's going on with Block Rock, and they want to buy all the real estate and all of this.
01:31:02.000And, you know, if you're a mom and pop, you don't want to have, you want to rent.
01:31:05.000And, you know, one day when they own all the real estate, they jack up their rents and they own your ass for the rest of your lives.
01:32:10.000Whether you're a business, whether you're a consumer, go there and support those guys.
01:32:15.000Put their kid through hockey practice or whatever it may be, rather than supporting the woke regime that has billionaires donating to them day in and day out.
01:32:26.000You like the trans spokesperson for Ukraine?
01:32:29.000I mean, that stuff's insane. You had someone...
01:32:31.000Funded by the U.S. government, talking about, literally, it seemed like they wanted to have hit squads going around combating Russian propaganda, which is anything that they don't like.
01:32:40.000It may be right. It may be free speech.
01:32:43.000It may be any of those things. But it seemed like they were going to go out there and kill them, and we're funding this from the U.S. government.
01:32:48.000I mean, if you're not watching what's going on, that's crazy.
01:34:25.000Okay, but write it down. Because that's the only problem.
01:34:27.000I've got to figure out... I gotta get these shows to be able to put up the URL so that people can click on it, open it up in a separate browser.
01:34:34.000That way you're just bookmarking it for later.
01:34:35.000Because everyone says, like, I'm gonna do it later, but they never actually do.
01:34:40.000So, you know, same thing with, you know, our sponsors.
01:34:44.000You're reading, but you're watching a podcast.
01:34:46.000You're not watching, so you maybe think about it later.
01:34:49.000In the show, I put down the URLs for our sponsors.
01:34:53.000If you're looking for those things, check them out.
01:34:55.000You do have a cell phone in your pocket.
01:34:57.000And I bet most of you are not with Patriot Mobile.
01:35:00.000So definitely go there, patriotmobile.com slash triggered.
01:35:04.000Or, you know, keep funding those who hate your guts.
01:35:06.000The choice is yours. Seems like an obvious one to you.
01:35:11.000Luke Down Under, great to hear, General Flynn.
01:35:14.000Your Australian promoter is letting you down.
01:35:15.000Only informed yesterday that Sydney is now postponed.
01:35:19.000Yeah, I actually did something about that today.
01:35:21.000They're putting it up. They're like, he's going to be back on these dates in December.
01:35:25.000Literally, no one has spoken to me about that.
01:35:28.000Like I said, I will try to work with them to figure out dates.
01:36:48.000Saying, Luke Down Under, you have many friends down here.
01:36:52.000Yeah, Australia's one of those places I feel like there's a disproportionate...
01:36:54.000I mean, if you're a freedom-loving conservative in Australia, you've gotten the shit beat out of you by those communists over the last few years.
01:37:05.000It's... Pathetic, but there's a lot of patriotic people that believe in freedom, that believe in the stuff.
01:37:10.000And, you know, prior to COVID, I thought that, you know, hey, Australia, maybe the gun thing, that's terrible, and, you know, that wouldn't fly here, but culturally it's different.
01:37:17.000But I guess you've accelerated your process towards communism a lot faster, and I think it was people's willingness just to give up on that so quickly, and the capitulation, and then the capitulation on COVID that, you know, you live under, you know...
01:39:14.000If he can walk in through the building and whatever his disability is, trust me, it's no harder to put on a sweatshirt than it is a dress shirt, okay?
01:40:04.000Yeah. Canada is not doing good either.
01:40:09.000Yeah, no, the real... I talked about it in the show with Flynn USA now, but yeah, the real...
01:40:13.000a real Nazi. Now, I know every freedom-lover trucker that didn't want to get jabbed was a literal Nazi because Hong Kong stood for Heil Hitler.
01:42:43.000Joe Biden? Who's shipping all their jobs to China to make EVs?
01:42:47.000Like... Hopefully, like everyone else waking up, hopefully the people who pay dues will start realizing that union leadership is not representing them.
01:43:00.000If they haven't figured that over 40 years, there may also be no helping them, but union leadership is a joke.
01:43:05.000The hardworking people who work in those unions are awesome, patriotic Americans, and they deserve actual representation, not what they're getting from union leadership.
01:43:16.000Win-win-win, Trump will watch you, but not the debate.
01:43:19.000Well, we'll have some fun right before the debate.
01:43:21.000You don't have to watch the debate. I imagine nothing interesting is going to happen there.
01:43:24.000But I recommend you watching us before the debate, and I'll probably have some interesting and fun stuff to say after the debate.
01:43:33.000Got a take on California to turn this nation around?
01:43:37.000I mean, you know, that's the reality, right?
01:43:40.000We believe in giving power to the states.
01:43:42.000If they want those things, that's fine.
01:43:46.000But I don't know who it's working for.
01:43:49.000Certainly not the people of California.
01:43:51.000And that's what's interesting is there's a lot of people in California that I mean, I think it's got like the second most number of conservatives of any state in the union.
01:43:59.000The problem is, you know, you're outweighed by the insane people on the coast.
01:44:34.000Mayor of Dallas, Democrat, basically switched parties this week to say, hey, this Democrat bullshit no longer represents the people.
01:44:43.000We're going to fail. It's going to be a disaster.
01:44:45.000I'm switching parties because it's crazy.
01:44:47.000And it's funny. I have plenty of friends in Texas, spent a lot of time there.
01:44:50.000And you go through Dallas and you go through the rich neighborhoods, Highland Park, and they were all the...
01:44:55.000I remember doing this in the last election.
01:44:57.000Beto sign! Because these rich, white, suburban women, they're virtue signaling.
01:45:04.000At their Starbucks with their $10 drink, and they're fighting for all those things.
01:45:09.000If their children were ever in these areas, things would drastically change, but they get so much social credit by virtue signaling and being full of shit.
01:45:19.000It's truly scary, but that's what's happening, because they don't know what's actually going involved.
01:45:23.000They're living in perfect homes and perfect neighborhoods and great schools and cheap labor with...
01:45:31.000They don't get what real people are going through, but those are the people that represent Democrats today.
