00:00:00.000 By the way, that Brian Krasenstein thing that you showed this morning, which I was surprised, I had no idea.
00:00:04.680 Can you pull this up, Rob?
00:00:05.900 Tom, what did you find about him?
00:00:08.200 So, Cam Higby and others were able to find a list of the people that were in the signal chat.
00:00:17.520 And they created a screen capture.
00:00:20.180 And then many people created the screen capture because the signal chat was broken and broke open and exposed.
00:00:25.480 So, you have not one person with AI, multiple people showing it, okay?
00:00:30.020 So, let's put that first platform, Pat.
00:00:31.900 You know what I mean?
00:00:32.360 Yep.
00:00:32.540 And then Brian Krasenstein, not Ed, but it showed that Brian Krasenstein.
00:00:37.000 Now, Ed may have been in there, too, but this particular one was Brian.
00:00:40.820 Brian Krasenstein's in there, and people are saying, what the hell is Brian Krasenstein doing in the signal chat from Minneapolis to foment, you know, discord and to, you know, interfere with federal officers doing their job from multiple agencies?
00:00:56.680 And so, people started doing that.
00:00:58.060 And then, all of a sudden, Brian comes out almost like he has to say something.
00:01:02.320 I can't read his mind.
00:01:03.660 But he comes out, yes, it's true. 0.78
00:01:05.780 I'm in the signal group chat.
00:01:07.740 Cry some more, MAGA.
00:01:08.940 It's like he's daring people to come after it.
00:01:11.280 But other people now are also pointing up.
00:01:13.660 They're going, wait a minute, dude.
00:01:14.880 If you're in the signal chat, you could be accessory to inciting these riots and interfering with federal officers.
00:01:21.480 And so, Krasenstein got busted.
00:01:24.560 So, a long time people, there have been allegations out there, and you can find them.
00:01:28.660 And these are allegations that the Krasenstein brothers have been taking money from liberal NGOs, and that's been funding them.
00:01:36.640 Allegations are everywhere.
00:01:38.220 You know, who knows what's right.
00:01:39.640 But it's interesting that there's so many people and that these guys go to such extents to deny it.
00:01:45.700 But that's what we're seeing today.
00:01:47.560 So, you have a liberal pundit, Pat, who's out there, who is in the signal chat.
00:01:52.600 They walk around, Tom, when you know that you're not going to get arrested and not get in trouble.
00:01:57.080 And look who they're flagging.
00:01:58.600 By the way, I want you to show, because you know who retweeted this?
00:02:01.040 You know who retweeted?
00:02:02.320 Oh, Elon saw this.
00:02:03.440 Rob, can you pull up what I just texted you?
00:02:06.120 Elon retweeted the list of names in that group.
00:02:11.520 Okay?
00:02:11.820 So, those guys are going to play their games.
00:02:15.900 That's kind of where I was going with this.
00:02:17.780 There's going to be agitators like this.
00:02:20.680 Look at this.
00:02:21.200 Elon retweeted it.
00:02:22.200 Zoom in a little bit.
00:02:22.880 Thank you.
00:02:23.800 Minneapolis signal infiltrated.
00:02:25.540 I have infiltrated organizational signal groups all around Minneapolis with the sole intention of tracking down federal agents and impeding, assaulting, and obstructing them.
00:02:35.980 Buckle up. 0.96
00:02:37.780 All will be revealed.
00:02:39.000 Each area of the city has a signal or several signals.
00:02:42.340 Let's start with a screen recording of the members of the south side of this.
00:02:46.140 So, look, everyone's name is in there.
00:02:48.080 And you can kind of go and look who's in there.
00:02:50.620 But, you know, this is going to continue.
00:02:52.640 The enemy is not going to stop.
00:02:53.800 They're not going to stop playing games.
00:02:54.920 The interesting part here, which is kind of annoying to them, is the guy they're going up against, I'm willing to say if the president doesn't lose the 2020 election, whatever you want to call 2020 election,
00:03:09.720 if he's not in there in 2020, he doesn't do as good of a job he's doing right now as a president as he would have had.
00:03:18.680 You know why?
00:03:19.200 Let me explain to you why.
00:03:20.560 So, you come in four years, you're president.
00:03:23.160 You choose the wrong team.
00:03:24.840 Yes.
00:03:25.160 You choose Pence.
00:03:26.640 Backstabs you.
00:03:27.320 Yeah.
00:03:27.480 You choose, how many names can we say that they flipped on him, right? 0.98
00:03:31.300 The Pompeo, the freaking Bolton, all of them. 0.84
00:03:34.300 And everybody would probably do things like, he's just a business guy. 0.98
00:03:37.360 He has no clue what's going on.
00:03:38.160 This guy's a lightweight.
00:03:39.380 We will run this.
00:03:40.340 We'll run this.
00:03:40.920 We'll run this.
00:03:41.900 And then he starts fired, fired, fired, fired, fired.
00:03:44.920 Now he's by himself, almost by himself at the end of the term, if you think about it.
00:03:48.420 Of course.
00:03:48.740 His own VP turns against him.
00:03:50.180 Of course.
00:03:50.880 Okay? 0.99
00:03:51.400 So, then, for four years, all you're watching is how terrible of a human being you are.
00:03:56.540 For four years, behind closed doors, he's strategizing and studying the playbook.
00:04:02.200 Talking to everybody and anybody.
00:04:04.220 You don't think information's coming back to him?
00:04:06.100 Everything's coming back to him.
00:04:07.600 Then he comes back for the third term, okay?
00:04:09.880 Which is now, the third term.
00:04:11.680 You know how well-trained he is for this job, knowing all the playbooks?
00:04:17.320 He knows all of them.
00:04:19.420 Anything and everything they try to do has been filtered out, and he reads through 90% of the BS.
00:04:25.520 The 10% still gets through, but 90% of the BS.
00:04:28.760 That's an enemy.
00:04:29.940 You don't want a guy like that to go through.
00:04:31.720 That's who they're dealing with.
00:04:32.900 We're going to see what happens next, the decisions he makes next with this.
00:04:36.980 America's turning 250 this year.
00:04:38.940 And, by the way, we're doing something special on the 250th, 4th of July.
00:04:45.120 Stay tuned.
00:04:45.800 I'll announce it to you when it's ready to announce.
00:04:48.420 It's going to be wild.
00:04:49.020 But we're going to do a handful of special pieces of merch, limited edition, numbered, okay?
00:04:55.160 This one's going to be out of 250 with the number 250.
00:04:59.280 So, it's numbered out of 250 for the 250-year celebration of U.S.
00:05:03.460 It will not last long.
00:05:05.000 Rob, play this clip.
00:05:06.860 Future looks bright.
00:05:08.200 We're excited about this year.
00:05:09.520 With all the chaos that's happening, we break down to you what is really going on or makes sense to you.
00:05:14.160 But having said that, Rob, go ahead and play this clip.
00:05:17.120 We don't just make products.
00:05:20.040 We carry a legacy built on American craftsmanship, intention, and pride.
00:05:27.460 250 years of history refined for today.
00:05:33.800 Every detail tells a story.
00:05:39.100 Every piece stands for who we are.
00:05:44.160 This is tradition.
00:05:47.460 Reimagined.
00:05:49.620 This is our 250 years limited edition collection.
00:05:55.080 The future looks bright at 250.
00:06:01.120 Guys, this is all I'll tell you.
00:06:02.920 Good luck if you sat on this one.
00:06:05.860 If you wait.
00:06:06.520 By the way, for some of you guys that unfortunately will watch this this afternoon because you wait for the clips,
00:06:10.900 you can find the items that people buy on eBay.
00:06:13.780 That'll be the only place you'll be able to get it.
00:06:15.680 The hat will not last a long time.
00:06:17.380 Again, it's limited merch.
00:06:19.440 So it's numbered out of 250.
00:06:21.040 If you go to eBay afterwards, you may find it because these things are not going to last but 30 minutes.
00:06:25.880 They'll be gone in no time.
00:06:26.940 Every time we do limited merch, the hat comes in a box that says Future Looks Bright and the logo, VT, right on there.
00:06:35.640 So go to vtmerch.com.
00:06:37.600 Place your order.
00:06:38.360 Go to vtmerch.com, Rob.
00:06:39.900 If you could, just go to the website.
00:06:41.180 If you go to vtmerch.com on the cover, you'll see the 250.
00:06:44.520 Get the sweater because it's cold.
00:06:46.360 Get the shirt and get the hat.
00:06:48.160 And if not for you, buy it for somebody else as well.
00:06:50.540 Having said that.
00:06:51.200 We get close up to the shield.
00:06:51.780 That shield is just amazing.
00:06:53.220 It is amazing.
00:06:54.040 It is amazing.
00:06:54.720 It's sick.
