Speaker 1 (00:00):
Maria.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
The implications of this are frankly, nothing short of historic.
Over one hundred documents that we released on Friday really
detail and provide evidence of how this treason is conspiracy
was directed by President Obama.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Just weeks before he was due to leave.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Office, after President Trump had already gotten elected. This is
not a Democrat or Republican issue. This is an issue
that is so serious it should concern every single American
because it has to do with the integrity of our
democratic republic. What we saw occur here, as the documents
we released detailed, was that we had a sitting president
(00:40):
of the United States and his cabinet and leadership team,
quite frankly, who were not happy with the fact that
President Trump had won the election, that the American people
had chosen Donald J. Trump to be the next president
commander in chief of the United States, and so they
decided that they would do everything possible to try to
undermine his ability to do what voters task President Trump
(01:03):
to do. So, creating this piece of manufactured intelligence that
claims that Russia had helped Donald Trump get elected contradicted
every other assessment that had been made previously in the
months leading up to the election that said exactly the opposite,
that Russia neither had neither the intent nor the capability
to try to quote unquote hack the United States election
(01:26):
for the presidency of the United States. So the effect
of what President Obama and his senior national security team
did was subvert the will of the American people, undermining
our democratic republic and enacting what would be essentially a
year's long coup against President Trump, who was duly elected
(01:48):
by the American people.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
We have a lot to.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Run on, and you have a lot to run against
given the other party. But I will tell you this,
we better be united, We better be strong, We better
be focused, we better be articulate. We can't waste our
time on Epstein and other stuff that are going on
here that some people want us to focus on about
hat it with all that stuff, we better focus on
who we are, what we're doing, where we want to
(02:10):
take the country, and what they want to do to
the country.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
But what happened.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
How did they actually get the public to believe and
have the public believed that actually Trump did collude.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Well, this is the thing, Maria, when you look at
the assessments that were made, not just by one element
of the intelligence community, but in my role as the
Director of National Intelligence, I oversee eighteen different intelligence community elements,
and in the months leading up to the November twenty
sixteen election, the intelligence community agreed that there was no
(02:45):
intelligence that reflected that Russia was trying to hack the
election in favor of either candidate. The evidence showed the
intelligence showed that again Russia did not have either the
intent nor the capability to be able to impact the
outcome of the United States election.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
So it was very striking when.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
We look back again at the documents that I declassified
and released, that shows there was a shift in early December.
The first week of December, again, another document was produced
by the intelligence community of President's Daily Brief that was
consistent with every other assessment that was done previously leading
up to the election. Russia did not, this is after
(03:28):
the election now did not attempt to affect the outcome
of the American election.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
That was never published.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Hours before it would have gone into President Obama's President's
Daily Brief, it was pulled by a senior level intelligence
official saying that they had to pull it because they
had received new guidance. The very next day, this meeting
was called a National Security Council meeting bring all together
all of the senior leaders of President Obama's cabinet, and
(04:01):
the topic that was put forward was a sensitive matter.
The tasks that came out of that meeting was coming
from President Obama directing the intelligence community, then Obama's OD
and I Director Clapper to produce a document to produce
an intelligence assessment that detailed not if, but how Moscow
(04:24):
affected the outcome of the election that had already occurred,
electing Donald Trump to the presidency. This document that they
published in January of twenty seventeen was the foundational groundwork
that they continued to reference over and over and over
again to enact this year's long coup against President Trump.
Speaker 6 (04:45):
How to Resist the Epstein Temptation. In it, Ben writes this,
there's obviously great fun in watching the world's dumbest media revolution,
the social media Epstein detectives lied by led by podcasters
turned Keystone cops children.
Speaker 7 (05:01):
There are political.
Speaker 8 (05:02):
Incentives for Democrats to join mega and stoken wild theories,
and there are good non conspiratorial questions about how Epstein
linked business, social climbing, and sex. Maybe investigative documents, perhaps
including the files Trump ordered released can answer some of
those questions, but those of us trying to stay sane
(05:24):
ought to keep in mind the distinction between evidence and speculation,
fantasy and reality.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
And I understand that there is more, perhaps that you
are going to come out with next week. And I
was told that that's why they rated Mara A Lago,
that they wanted to find the Trump Russia documents that
indicated there was absolutely no collusion and that there was
no evidence to even start such an investigation. But Trump
(05:52):
didn't have it there in Mara A Lago. But that's
why they rated his house in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Is that correct.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I don't have the details on the specifics of the
mar A Lago raid itself, those are within the possession
of the FBI. But there's no question in my mind
that this intelligence community assessment that President Obama ordered be published,
which contained a manufactured intelligence document, it's worse than even
(06:22):
politicization of intelligence.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
It was manufactured intelligence that.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Sought to achieve President Obama and his team's objective, which
was undermining President Trump's presidency and subverting the will of
the American people.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
So yes, next week we will be releasing.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
More detailed information about how exactly this took place, and
the extent to which this information was sought to be
hidden from the American people, hidden from officials who would
be in a position to do something about it. And
that's really the point here that I think is most important, Maria,
and you said it in your opening. Accountability is essential
(07:01):
for the future of our country, for the American people
to have any sense of trust in the integrity of
our democratic republic. Accountability, action, prosecution, indictments for those who
are responsible for trying to steal our democracy is essential
for us to make sure that this never happens to
our country again.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
There's no need to doubt it.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Cause you're in N's no need.
Speaker 7 (07:51):
I'll say it when you saw it on you tend.
Speaker 9 (07:57):
And that's who you will.
Speaker 7 (07:58):
By many, this is the primal screen of a dying regime.
Speaker 10 (08:12):
Pray for our enemies, because we're going to medieval on
these people.
Speaker 11 (08:17):
There's not got a free shot.
Speaker 10 (08:19):
All these networks lying about the people, the people have
had a.
Speaker 7 (08:22):
Belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that.
I know you try to do everything in the world
to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
It's going to happen.
Speaker 8 (08:29):
And where do people like that go to share the
big line mega media.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of
these people had a conscience.
Speaker 10 (08:39):
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
Speaker 4 (08:43):
If that answer is to save my country, this country.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Will be saved. Here's your host, Stephen k Ban.
Speaker 10 (08:58):
It's Monday, twenty one July. You're of a Lord twenty
twenty five. This is going to be a tag, gonna
be action pack. We Taulci Gabbart there, so she's going
to release more information.
Speaker 7 (09:08):
We're going to break down.
Speaker 10 (09:09):
We got more of her interview, uh with Maria. We'll
break it down. Jim Richards is going to join us. Also,
General Flyn's going to join us a little bit later.
I want to play.
Speaker 7 (09:20):
That that was actually.
Speaker 10 (09:22):
The end of that was actually put up by President Trump.
I guess it's artificial intelligence, right President Trump? Last night
on his truth Social he bombarded true social in the
media with a number of just explosive truth you know,
I guess these these postings he puts up about Tulci Gabbert,
(09:44):
about the deep State, about you can tell his rising
anger about what happened I think as he gets into
more of the details, two things other happening, we'll get
clips to home and and Christy Nobus gave a press
conference and officer see a customer at border of Trot
think has been shot and killed, wounded, has been wounded,
(10:04):
shot in the face, wounded in critical condition.
Speaker 7 (10:07):
I guess.
Speaker 10 (10:08):
And they just had a these ice officers, customers and
border patrol. This is why they wearing the mask. They're
completely under assault. Also under assault everything President Trump does.
And this is why the Justice Department's under siege with
the almost two hundred lawsuits against President Trump's Article two powers. Now,
Elena Habab, one of President Trump's closest lawyers and confidence,
(10:31):
has been doing a great job as the acting or
iguinst the inroim us attorney in New Jersey. I think
it's threatened to be removed today at ten am by
Hakeem Jefferies and a bunch of judges in New Jersey.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
Mike Davis joins us.
Speaker 10 (10:46):
Mike explained to the audience what's going on because this
is quite confusing situation. She's there on an interim basis,
I guess, an acting basis. Been doing a great job.
How is she being removed by these kind of radical
neo Marxist judges, federal judges and Jersey working with King
Jeffrey Sir.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Yes, US attorneys are generally nominated by the President in
consultation with the home state senators through the Blue slips,
where the home state senators have a veto over the
US attorney nomination because they want to be able to
hand select the prosecutor who would prosecute their corruption case,
the district court judge who would oversee their corruption case,
(11:26):
and the US marshall that would escort them to prison.
But that's not going away. That's been around for over
one hundred years. That's nonsense called the blue slip. But regardless,
the President, through his Attorney General, can appoint a US
attorney for one hundred and twenty days. We saw this
with Judge Janine Piro in DC. We saw this with
(11:48):
Alina Habba and New Jersey. We saw this with other
US attorneys around the country. And then after that one
hundred and twenty day appointment, if the if the US
attorney is not not dominated and confirmed by the Senates,
there's a statute. I think it's unconstitutional, but there's a
statute that lets the district court judges in the district
(12:09):
where the US attorney rules, they get a pick, They
get a vote to pick whether the US attorney stays
or goes. In the past, this is generally that these
judges have generally been very deferential to the Attorney General
and the President because this is a US attorney, it's
the chief law enforcement officer of that district. Well, we're
(12:32):
seeing a precedent sets in this Trump forty seven administration
where these Democrats activist judges, whether they're in New York
or now New Jersey, are trying to fire these US attorneys.
They're voting to fire. In New Jersey, there are seventeen
district court judges, fifteen of them are appointed by Barack
(12:57):
Obama and Joe Biden. So at ten o'clock this morning,
right now, they're meeting to decide to vote whether to
get rid of Alena Habbin. This is after House Democrat
Leader Hakeem Jeffries posted a post on x A couple
days ago calling for these seventeen New Jersey District Court
(13:18):
judges to get rid of Alina Habba and the reason
because Alena Haba indicted a House Democrat member who allegedly
assaults it federal immigration officers. So this is purely political
by Hakim Jeffries. So I just last night filed a
(13:39):
House ethics complaint from the Article three project against Takeem
Jeffries because he is trying to get these seventeen New
Jersey federal judges to violate their judicial ethics. Cannons two, three,
and five of the Code of Conduct for United States
Judges makes it illegal for judges to make the political
(14:03):
considerations that Hakeem Jeffries has urged them to make by
firing US Attorney Alina Habbah because she brought an indictment
against a Democrat House member for allegedly assaulting a.
Speaker 9 (14:16):
Federal ice agent. So we'll see what happens today.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
That ethics complaint is going to go against Akeem Jeffries.
Speaker 9 (14:22):
That's in the process.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
And I would say to these seventeen district court judges
in New Jersey, if they follow Hakeem Jefferies' recommendation and
fire US Attorney Aleena Hobba.
Speaker 9 (14:34):
Today, they will also face judicial.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Misconduct complaints, seventeen of them from the Article three projects.
Speaker 10 (14:42):
But this is part of this is that we haven't
called in the District judges in DC to be deposed
openly fromd of the American anyway, Mike, stick around. We
got to get to the bottom of this short break
back in a moment, America, use your.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Host, Stephen K.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Bath.
Speaker 7 (15:05):
Okay, welcome back. I want to thank Birch Goal.
Speaker 10 (15:07):
Take your phone out right now if you want to
understand about gold is aheadge and particularly in the times
of turbulence we've got going on. We're gonna have a
lot more about recisions and about impoundments. Scott Besen was
on today Tom about the Federal Reserve. Jim Orker is
gonna join us in a moment. We're gonna have some
turbulence up ahead as the as the supply side tax
(15:30):
cut kicks in. Take out your phone and text Bannon
b A N N O N N nine eight.
Speaker 7 (15:36):
This is a very.
Speaker 10 (15:37):
Simple but detailed guide. It's a handbook, the ultimate handbook
on how to invest in gold and precious metals in
the age of Trump. Very definitive, talks about four one
k's I raise all of it. So check it out
and it's free and you get a relationship with Philip
Patrick and the team. If Phillip's gonna be on with
me tomorrow. We're gonna go through a lot about the
(16:00):
what's happening with the dollar, gold versus the dollar. So
Mike Davis over the weekend with Tulci Gabbert, what's happening
on Epstein's situation?
Speaker 7 (16:09):
You had a coup? This is this, quite.
Speaker 10 (16:12):
Frankly, is about who governs US is when someone's elected
to the officer of the president with the powers of
the presidency, that you've done such an incredible job at
Article three, butchersing and saying in that interregnum we had
for those number of years, working with Project twenty twenty
five and russ Vote and others to say, hey, you know,
(16:32):
he's chief executive officer of the United States.
Speaker 7 (16:35):
He can impound money. He can the Impoundment Act of
during Nixon, the distress of Nixon is illegitimate.
Speaker 10 (16:44):
He's the CEO, he can fire people, cut money. He's
commander in chief. He has almost unlimited powers as commander
in chief. And then he's the chief magistrate, chief law
enforcement officer. Now we're finding this is where the rubber
hits the road, because Kennedy was taken out in a nation.
Nixon was really a judicial coup with the CIA and FBI.
But Judge so rika the House, the lawyers at the House.
(17:07):
Have you read Jeff Shepherd's two books. That's stunning of
how the radical judiciary and that started this whole process
of hiving off the Justice Department in the FBI from
the president from his article to power that he's chief
magistrate and chief law enforcement officer.
Speaker 7 (17:22):
And that's why your work has been so great.
Speaker 10 (17:24):
President Trump went over there, I think on the second
and third day, into the halls of the DOJ and
Weisman and those guys have never recovered from that. Now
you have a situation that we have a judicial revolt
as we're now getting to how his first term was
taken from him right in a coup. That they're they're
you know, putting the evidence out every day.
Speaker 7 (17:44):
You see.
Speaker 10 (17:44):
Now, what's the one thing that's worked for the Democrats
is the ability although they're losing at the highest court,
they're slowing things down.
Speaker 7 (17:52):
To delay is to deny.
Speaker 10 (17:53):
And this is another example of even President Trump getting
who he wants in to actually work for him. So
this is a dual prong approach from the deep state
and also this radical judiciary, which I guess is the
legal and judicial arm of the deep state. I want
to start here by going back. What is blue slip?
I thought President Trump said, hey, look, I'm not crazy
(18:14):
about this. Blue slip understands customer tradition in the old days,
we had compromised.
Speaker 7 (18:19):
It wasn't bad.
Speaker 10 (18:20):
But this stops President Trump from actually getting US attorneys
in blue. And we know that the Neo Confederates run California,
they run Los Angeles, they control Illinois and Chicago, they
control New York and New York City. And you're not
going to deport ten to twenty million illegal alien invaders. Hell,
you just had a guy get shot in the face, right,
(18:41):
You're not going to do that unless you have hammers
as US attorneys going against these corrupt Marxist, neo Marxist
Democratic politicians. Sir, so, I thought we actually the blue
slip thing was something we kind of waved off a
couple of years ago.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
So I was when I was the Chief council for
Nominations on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Speaker 9 (19:00):
I was able to push very hard for then Chairman
and now Shairman.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Chuck Grassley to not give blue slip vetos for Federal
Circuit judge nominees because they touched more than one state.
But for US Attorney US Marshall district court judges, like
I say, there would be one hundred senator revolts. Of
these home state senators lost the ability to hand select
(19:25):
the prosecutor who would prosecute their corruption trial, the judge
would oversee the corruption trial, and the US Marshal who
would escort them to prison. So blue slips for district court,
US Attorney and US Marshall are not going away, probably ever.
But for circuit court judges, they lost the veto power.
You still have to do consultation with the home state
(19:48):
senators before you nominate a federal a federal appellate judge nominee.
But that's the reason we confirmed a near record number
of judges, including federal appellate judge in President Trump's first term,
is because we got rid of the blue slip veto
for federal circuit judges.
Speaker 10 (20:06):
You have to bounce, understand. That's what's the action. Article
three is on top of this with the President. He's outraged.
Aleena has done a great job. What is the call
to action this morning? Is anything the posse should do
to assist this? Is this This is occurring right now
with these fifteen of these seventeen judges making a decision
whether they want to get rid of her or not.
(20:27):
Is there anything for the warm posse to do in
coordination with Article three?
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Well, unfortunately, you can't call these judges because and that
makes this is even more weird. You have seventeen judges
deciding whether the president gets to keep his US attorney
in New Jersey, Aleena Habbah and there's nothing we can
do about it. This is It shows you how one
constitutional this is. Usually when the president picks someone, you
(20:51):
can call the president, you can call the White House switchboard,
or the Senate confirms someone. You can call your home
state senators. But you can't really call these judges. So again,
a total head scratcher.
Speaker 7 (21:05):
Okay, but you're on it with the you're with the
Ethics committee.
Speaker 10 (21:09):
Is that going to be anything powerful to Hakeem Jeffrey
since these guys don't have any ethics, do they care
or is this something technical you can jam him up
that he can't use his powers as minority leader.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
It is a clear violation of the House ethics rules
for a House member, particularly the top House democrat, to
strong arm seventeen federal judges to fire a United States
attorney because that United States attorney brought a federal indictment
(21:41):
through a grand jury against a Democrat House member for
allegedly assaulting federal immigration officers.
Speaker 9 (21:49):
That is a clear cutthouse ethics violation.
Speaker 7 (21:55):
Mike, thank you so much for joining us. I know
you get a boat.
Speaker 10 (21:57):
We'll follow this some one this morning and hopefully you'll
report back this afternoon.
Speaker 7 (22:01):
Thank you, Lena Hubob.
Speaker 10 (22:02):
And by the way, President Trump's done this on a
lot to have these acting US attorneys, and she's done
a fantastic job in New Jersey, which you think can imagine.
Speaker 7 (22:10):
No easy area.
Speaker 10 (22:12):
This is where Scott Presler in the Persistence movement is
up there right now. They believe that New Jersey is
going to be the next Pennsylvania's Pennsylvania because the next Ohio.
As far as registrations and get out the vote. Can
we play clip? I got Jim records up. I'd like
to play that Tulsi clip that we had. Let's go
and play it for.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
A Jim and I understand that there is more, perhaps
that you are going to come out with next week.
And I was told that that's why they raided Mara
A Lago that they wanted to find the Trump Russia
documents that indicated there was absolutely no collusion and that
there was no evidence to even start such an investigation.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
But Trump didn't have it there in mar A Lago.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
But that's why they rated his house in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Is that correct.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
I don't have the details on the specifics of the
mar mar A Lago raid itself, those are within the
possession of the FBI. But there's no question in my
mind that this intelligence community assessment that President Obama ordered
be published, which contained a manufactured intelligence document, it's worse
(23:20):
than even politicization of intelligence. It was manufactured intelligence that
sought to achieve President Obama and his team's objective, which
was undermining President Trump's presidency and subverting the will of
the American people. So yes, next week we will be
releasing more detailed information about how exactly this took place
(23:41):
and the extent to which this information was sought to
be hidden from the American people, hidden from officials who
would be in a position to do something about it.
And that's really the point here that I think is
most important, Maria, and you said it in your opening.
Accountability is essential for the future of our country, for
(24:01):
the American people to have any sense of trust in
the integrity of our democratic republic. Accountability, action, prosecution, indictments
for those who are responsible for trying to steal our
democracy is essential for us to make sure that this
never happens to our country again.
Speaker 10 (24:22):
I mean, the president last night on True Social when
all in including that far bia from me to say
it's the over the top artificial intelligence on Obama. It's
pretty powerful. We'll play that again after the break. Jim
Rickards joins us. Jim, we're going to talk about Ukraine.
We've got many geopolitical issues to talk to you about,
(24:42):
but a lot of them get back to this whole
situation in fifteen and sixteen with the intelligence apparatus. Unbelievably understand,
they didn't stop Trump from winning, so they had to
come about it a different way. You've seen Tulsi her releases.
She said right there, a heads up. The FBI's got
I think information that will be released shortly about the
(25:05):
mar Lago raid. There were a reason for it. What's
your overall assessment. In the first couple of days, this
hit on Friday in kind of a bombshell.
Speaker 7 (25:13):
What's your first cut assessment?
Speaker 11 (25:16):
My first cut assessment. By the way, I've had the
privilege of meeting in Telsia, spending some time with her.
I live in New Hampshire. She was finding for president.
You get to meet all the candidates, unusual for Washington.
She's a really nice person, but boy is she's smart
and she does not shoot from the hip. One of
my favorite Tulsi clips is she's doing she was in
a live fire exercise. You know, she's active duty to military,
(25:38):
and she changed the clip on an MR four in
the obstacle course, so while she was you know, rolling
and so forth. So she's she's completely serious, and they've
done this. I say they This is obviously comment from
the intelligence community. She's the head of the intelligence community.
These were not just lose accusations. This was not just oh,
maybe we're going to take a closer look at this.
She had you know, I had to use cliches, but
(25:59):
she had the receipt She had intelligence community documents that
were released and other descriptions, et cetera that point directly
at this conspiracy. Now the thing that, now, by the way,
after ten years of this, you know Special Counsel Robert Muller,
you know, Inspector General and Jim Jordan seems like a
nice guy. But you know, ten years of talk is enough.
(26:20):
We want to see some action. My impression is that
this is going to lead directly to action. They've done
a lot of things right. So for example, they're using
they're looking at conspiracy and rico type charges. That is
very powerful in two different ways. Number One, it casts
a wider net. You could be you can have a
very tangential world. If you're part of a conspiracy. You
can get dragged in and charged with some of the
(26:41):
highest charges that will be applied to the conspiracy itself.
Speaker 10 (26:45):
More important, Jim, Jim, Jim, hold them more importantly. I'm
gonna leave him on the hook a cliffhanger. Jim Rickards
is in the war room. Short commercial break back in
a moment, use your Stephen K.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Bath.
Speaker 7 (27:06):
Okay, welcome back.
Speaker 10 (27:07):
We've got a massive conspiracy to a is a coup
to remove President Trump from office after he legitimately won
in twenty seventeen, sixteen seventeen, and it continued on, it
continues on to this day. You have the auto pen situation.
You got the Epstein situation. You've got the question I
(27:27):
keep asking who runs this country, right, who actually runs
it the voters, the will of the people, or at
this apparatus we call the deep state, which is the
interconnection of the intelligence services, law enforcement, national security, in
the military, in finance. Jim Rickards, I want to just
hit rewind for a second. You know, Tulsi, she's a
(27:47):
serious person, folks. This is the reason Tulsie Gavin has
been getting lit up in the press, in the Langley Bugle, right,
this is the reason that the Langley Bugle, what we
call the Washington Post, right, David Ignation and that crowd
have been lighting her up and saying how great the
CIA is, and how tremendous the CIA.
Speaker 7 (28:05):
Is, and what a great job they did in Israel.
Speaker 10 (28:07):
This weekend, folks, the Times of Israel, Okay, not exactly
war Room, the Times of Israel, Axios, immediaite all did
huge stories of how the White House has had a
belly full of net and Yahoo, that he's out of control,
not just pushing for it in continuation regime change, war
(28:27):
with the Persians, but he's out of control everywhere from
bus shelling Catholic churches to what's going on instead of
being focused in Gaza, just kind of random violence in
Gaza all over and the description from the White Houses
he's a madman. Okay, Tulca Gabbert has been getting lit
up because the CIA, in conjunction with the Masad came
(28:48):
up with the urgent, the urgency that we had to
get into it with the Persians. Jim Rickards. We know
she's a serious person. We know she can also take incoming.
She's kind of unflappable. She can take in has she
as over the last couple of months and then delivered
a bombshell, a bombshell that President Trump got on board early,
but last night he went next level of his enthusiasm
(29:09):
for this, including having this little film put together with
Obama being actually incarcerated. I want to go back to
your You're saying they're smart and the way they're doing this,
given your knowledge of the intelligence community and particularly going
directly to a conspiracy and to Rico using the Rico
statues to get to go over this, Can you continue
(29:30):
on your analysis, sir?
Speaker 11 (29:33):
Sure? So the first point we made this conspiracy widens
the net, so people tangentially involved can be kind of
hauled in to the core of the conspiracy and face
those charges because they contributed to it. But more importantly,
it extends the statute of limitations, because the immediate reaction
to some of this was yeah, maybe, but it was
you know, twenty sixteen. That was nine years ago. The
(29:54):
statues five years or seven years, depending on the offense.
That's not how it works in a conspiracy. Start the
statute of limitations from the last Act, and that would
be at least the rate on mar A Lago. If
I were I happened to be a lawyer, if I
were a lawyer to any of these potential defendants, I
would say, keep off the phone and don't talk to
any of the other people back. Don't talk about it
at all. Every phone call that furthers the conspiracy starts
(30:18):
the statue limitations over again. So you are not going
to have a statue of limitations problem. So wide net
statue of limitation is simply not a problem. The other
thing you look at is what's called benu and jurisdiction. Well,
Chris Ray sent the goon squads into mari A Lago
to go through Milania's lingerie. Thank you, that just handed
the white House A or the Department of Justice a
(30:39):
Florida jurisdiction, so you could bring the case in Floyd.
You can bring in other states as well. This was
a pretty widespread coup. Pick your state, and you're certainly
not going to pick Washington, DC, or New York or
any other Democratic stronghold. So statual limitation is not a problem.
Conspiracy castle wide net. Florida jurisdiction is clear other states
(31:00):
if you prefer so. My point is they've really thought
this through, anticipated all the objections or all the potential defenses,
and structured in such a way that those defenses fall down.
And the last point, I encouraged the war whim and
possibly read. What Telsea gabbartt actually released was the kind
of a one page tons of documents behind it. But
(31:22):
what she actually released again serious person. She used the
word coup. The word coup was in there, which is
what it was. I think you're right, absolutely right about that.
She also used the word treason's I think of the
word was treason us but okay, the root word is treason,
one of the very few chron is mentioned in the Constitution.
Of course, you can get the death penalty for that.
So this was carefully crafted, carefully thought through. They anticipated
(31:45):
the defenses. They've knocked them down before they can even
be raised. I would expect in due course, but maybe
sooner than later, grand juries, indictments, trials, and some convictions.
Speaker 10 (31:58):
Jim given you know that community very well, and you
know geopolitics very well. When someone is serious, as Tulsi
Gabbert d and I who has eighteen seventeen or eighteen
of these massive intelligence apparatus report to her, when she
uses the word coup and she used the word treason,
(32:19):
this conspiracy, how serious should the intelligence community and those
that perpetrate these crimes.
Speaker 7 (32:25):
Take this, sir?
Speaker 11 (32:28):
It doesn't get any more serious. I mean unless unless
you're pulling a trigger somewhere, you know, coup in treason,
that's that's as bad as a guess. And again that's
one of the few crimes mentioned in the Constitution, so
which means that you could be looking at a very
long prison sentences at a minimum. By the way, the
conspiracy went on for years. I talked about the statial limitations,
but you know, through through the Special Council, through Maler,
(32:51):
through the mar Lago raid, they're behind the scenes. People
are still planning these things. You said, the SWAT team,
the PSA team didn't just show up in more Lago.
So there are more conversations related to that and Obama.
Not only is Obama not off the hook, he appears
to be at the center of it. You go through
the chronology that that Telsea Gaber laid out was very clear.
(33:14):
But the intelligence community said the Russians had nothing to
do with interference with the twenty sixteen election, either you know,
kind of hacking voting machines or but anything really yeah,
you know internet social media agents that said had nothing
to do with it. That's what they said in two assessments,
is one from the CIA and one from the FBI,
(33:36):
and then the White House with Obama in the room,
said no change it. Let's let's let's create a conspiracy.
They introduced the Steel, the Steele dossier, Christopher Steele, the
I six. Well, he wasn't the Moscow station chief. He
ran the Russian desk in London. But they had six
agent on the Russian on the Russian file made it up.
(33:59):
By the way, the history of intelligence operators making things
up is as long as the history of intelligence. So
some intelligence is solid and good but you know, they
make things up for propaganda reason, sort of steer you
in the wrong direction, et cetera. It's you know what, Angleton,
I actually met a company Shakespeare originally called the Wilderness
of Mirrors. I mean, when you're in it, you get
it is a wilderness of mirors. They lie to each other,
(34:20):
they make things up and or or do or hide
the real intelligence, et cetera. So they knew that that
dot it was fake, and they insisted on putting it
in to give them the justification. And by the way,
our friend James Boseberg, the federal judge in Washington, d C.
He was the PISA judge at the time they proved
(34:41):
these warrants. And of course he's another one standing in
the way of Trump's immigrants.
Speaker 10 (34:46):
So they're all in it together, the dots, the dots
are connecting. By the way, I'm still working through a
couple of biographies of Angleton on the Kennedy coup. This
has real world implications. What's obvious in the audience, Grayce
and Moe. I think we did it over the weekend,
but I want to do it again and make sure
the war room posse gets every opportunity and availability to
(35:07):
read the documents as they come out. Tulsi's kind of
cover letter or cover post, and then all the different
documents you should read them. And we're gonna be putting
up and I'll be putting up on getter all types
of Now. So like I said, General Flynn's going to
join us, we'll have posts. So back on tomorrow. Post
is doing virtue his entire shows every day on this.
It has real world implications. What comes out in these
(35:29):
in these emails, the hatred of Trump is you can
you can almost taste it. They had their hatred of Trump,
but their hatred of Russia is at the same level.
If this changed the arch of history, if this had
not happened, and because what they wanted to do to
make sure there could never be a rapprocheman that we
could do a reverse niction. They could never be a
(35:50):
rapprocheman between the Trump administration and the United States in
the Russian people, that could take them out of the
sphere with the Chinese Communist Party, so together other we
could figure out how to deal with the existential threat
to the United States, which is the CCP. We know that,
and people that watch the show know that talk to
(36:10):
me about that we're gonna talk about Ukraine. There wouldn't
be two million dead people dead, you know, and that
is Russian troops, Ukrainian troops and Ukrainian civilians. If this
had not been allowed to happen, if we had broken this,
if this had been made visible immediately. This has real
war implications. And today, you know, the President on I
think the day after Labor Day. As we continue right now,
(36:34):
secondary sanctions are going to come in against the Chinese
Communist Party, full economic warfare against Russia, and the Ukraine
situation only gets worse and worse and worse. We played
in the cold open Lindsey Graham last night so offensively
he's tying what President Trump is trying to do to
Scotti Shuffler's huge victory and the Open Championship essay, saying, hey,
(36:57):
Trump's given on my ass. Whooping you got Tom Cotton
and Lindsey Graham. These people are out of control. But
this goes back, you see the beginning of it, because
they never thought Trump would win. When Trump won, it
was like this complete hatred of Trump and everything he
stood for because it was against the deep state. But
as seriously as their hatred of Russia, that nothing could
(37:18):
come in to their plan to try to take down
the Russian people.
Speaker 7 (37:21):
Jim rickarts your thoughts.
Speaker 11 (37:24):
That's exactly right, and this kind of point said people
like Vinman, Fiona Hill. A lot of this so called
Russia experts were witnesses at the Trump's first impeachment trial
impeachment proceeding, which was based on a phone called a Zelenski.
So we're all kind of creatures of our academic train
(37:45):
at least if you're at that expert level and you
went to a certain period. You know, I was in
graduate school and international relations in the seventies before I
went to law school. That was the height of the
Cold War. But the people who are kind of late
forties fifties today, they went to school in the nineties.
What was going on in the nineties, Well, this the
Soviet Union collapse officially dissolved in December nineteen ninety one.
(38:07):
Putin came in to power around twousand, late ninety nine,
two thousand. What happened in that kind of ten year
period Russia was to borrow West. They handed out all
these shares of all these companies to everyday Russian people.
The oligarchs, you know, set up card tables and the
lobbies of apartment buildings said he, I'll give you some
cash for your shares. They acquired all these shares. Sometimes
there were two or three that were the machine gun
(38:27):
fights in the streets of Moscow was like Chicago in
the nineteen twenties. But what was America doing. We were
telling them how to run a central bank, how to
set up a stock exchange, how to do basically IPOs
of all the wealth in Russia so we could acquire
it ourselves, break up Russia into separate republics. This was
the heyday of the Russia haters who ended all that.
(38:49):
It was Putin. Putin came in. By the way, Putin's
support does not come from the oligarchs. That's a myth.
He's at odds with the oligarchs. He said, hey, you
can have your money in your business, but keep out
of politics. Don't get my way where you'll end up
in jail. And they got the message. But Putin's support
is the military, the Orthodox Church and everyday Russians. Those
(39:11):
are the three pillars of Putin support. His polls are
off the charge eighty five to ninety percent. Popularity. He
understands the soul of Russia. One of the most interesting
things I've ever heard from a Russian was he said,
you know the problem with you Americans. You think we're
like you because we're white. But Russia is a completely
different civilization, different religion, different history, etc. But so when
(39:35):
Putin came along, the Benmn's and the Fiona Hills of
the world hated them because he upset the applicat, He
upset their game. He upset their game to loot Russia
basically for the benefit of US investors, and so they
hate him. In fact, Putin could be our best friend again.
I'll come back to my analogy. I hope it's not
to used up, but there are only three countries in
(39:57):
the world that matter China, Russia, and the United States, Sorry, Germany,
UK your secondary powers. It's a three handed poker game.
A three handed poker game, it's always two against one
and the one is the sucker. And if you don't
know who the sucker is, you're the sucker. Nixon understood this.
That's why he opened the door to China, so we
could isolate the Soviet Union really Russia, and then you know,
(40:19):
the court eighty nine, the Berlin Wall falls, ninety one,
the Soviet Union dissolves. Now we need to pivot to Russia,
aligned with Russia and isolate China to defeat the Communist Party.
But they can't stand that. They meaning, uh, you know,
basically the neocons, the Victoria Newlands, the Fiona Hills, George Kent,
(40:41):
basically the entire farm Party policy establishment. They can't stand it.
Speaker 10 (40:45):
So Jim, Jim, Jim, hang in one second, We're just
going to take a short commercial brew.
Speaker 7 (40:51):
Jim Ricketts on the other.
Speaker 10 (40:52):
Side, let us take down let's say.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
Confuse your host, Stephen k back.
Speaker 10 (41:04):
Remember the engine room sends me this to reminder body,
it's this conspiracy against President Trump, this coup against President Trump,
this treasonous conspiracy against President Trump. Is against President Trump,
but it's also against the government that was voted in
by the American people, and it's by individuals, and those
individuals I understand and appreciate. There is frustration with hey,
(41:26):
we had Durham, we had all this, how come we
having anybody purple walk Yet on their side, it's also
about institutions. It's the institutions that need to be purged. Finally,
we have to get the courage to do that, to
break apart the FBI, to break apart the CIA. Right now, Jim,
what is our way out? What is a peaceful solution?
Putin just said the other day he is prepared to
(41:48):
talk peace, didn't say specifically with Zelenski, but what is
our way out of this Ukraine situation to make sure
that we avoid getting sucked in and exorably drawn drawn
in into a increasing land war on the regional land mass.
Speaker 11 (42:03):
Sir, well, that tried to be clear. Sergei Lavrov, the
Foreign Minister, Russia and Putin have been willing to talk
peace since before the special military operation began, certainly since
then in February twenty twenty two, but even before that
they said we'll sit down and talk about this. But
what they will not do is agree to an unconditional ceasefire.
(42:25):
And that's the problem Trump. People ask me if I'm maga.
I say no, I'm super maga. Okay, So I'm very
very supportive of everything Trump's doing. I gave a big
presentation last week and bok Ratona on Maganomics was very
well received. I went through kind of scott essence, three
arrows and Peter Navarrus tariffs since Steve Morant's marlog record,
(42:47):
and I showed how it was really very very well
thought out and the gears meshed really brilliantly. But Trump
is in danger of losing that legacy, basically destroying his
administration due to the war in Ukraine. He should have
he had a perfect opportunity to get out at the
beginning of this year. Was it was Biden's war, not
Trump's war. He missed that he's getting been studying the
(43:11):
Indian wars of the eighteen sixties and eighteen seventies, that
Trump's getting what the Indians called bad medicine from Lindsey Graham.
I think Mark or Rubio. I like Mark Rubio, but
I think he's kind of in this camp. Mike Wallas
is still around. I know he's, you know, a Bachelor
of the u M. But he's in there, and certainly
know Lindsey Graham and others. He's just getting sucked in
(43:32):
and they won't end it. They you know, they're going
to give them a new weapons. By the way, this
whole thing with Trump announcing we're going to we're going
to start to sell weapons for Ukraine, but we're going
to sell them to NATO and then they're going to
pay us, so we're actually going to get money for it. Well,
a couple of things wrong with that. Number One, NATO
is a treaty organization. It's not an arms merchant, arms dealer,
or an army. There's no such thing as a NATO army.
(43:53):
It's a treaty. I guess you could be purpose it
for that, but that's the first problem. They don't buy arms.
They never had this some president. Number two, where's the
money coming from? Germany, UK, France, Italy is basically said,
we're out of this game. Spain has no interest. But
even Germany, France, and the UK don't have the money
for this. They all have a budget problems. They do
(44:13):
not have robust military budgets. There's no unified fund for
so not clear where the money's coming from. Number Three,
the US doesn't have the weapons. We've completely run down
our supplies of one hundred and fifty five millimeters shelves,
patriot an and missile batteries. We have some, but there
supposed to be in the United States to protect the
United States or they're going to go to Israel. We're
not selling any to Ukraine or Tonado to be delivered
(44:37):
to Ukraine. How many do the Europeans have a handful?
Three or four?
Speaker 5 (44:40):
Here?
Speaker 11 (44:40):
They don't have ten or fourteen or whatever is Zelenski
was talking about. And number four. Every one of these
systems has failed. We've been doing this for three years,
over three and a half years. At this point, they've
all failed. That the armored personnel carriers, the tanks, the challengers,
the lepers, the aprons, that they were all left burning
on the battlefield. Why don't you hear about that sixteens anymore?
(45:00):
Because they're getting shot down by Russian Russian missiles. Why
don't you hear about Hoimar's precision got it artillery because
the Rusians figured out how to jam the GPS systems
so they fly into cornfields and don't do any harm.
And those, all these systems have failed. So what do
you want to do? Give them? Give them Tomahawk cruise
missiles to aim at Moscow. Okay, that's a real short
pat to World War three, because that what Putin will do.
(45:23):
He'll attack the launching systems in Romania. Now you're attacking Nator.
Now you aren't. World War three. We're pretty close already,
but that would be the less straws. So is that
what Trump wants because the Russians they're not back in
the way. Show me an army in history or military
and history that agreed to an unconditional CEA square when
they were winning the losing side once. Of course they
(45:44):
want time out, replant is give little R and R whatever.
But Russia's winning. This is coming down to the Battle
of Poklovsk right now. So in twenty twenty two we
had Mariopo, twenty twenty three, we had Bachmut, twenty twenty four,
we had Debka. These are all major cities, major battles.
They took a while, but the Russians won everyone. Now
(46:05):
pak Posk is the next target. It's the Russian he said,
why haven't the Russians invaded it for the past year,
at least spent the past year surrounding it, cutting off
all the supply routes, taking every village anywhere in the vicinity.
When they get it is a major logistics of if
you take it, the Ukrainians cannot supply their entire front
and dombas, and then at that point there's nothing stopping in.
The Russians been going to the Nepro River. So why
(46:27):
should the Russians agree to anything. Now, if you want
to talk to Putin, he's a phone call away, that's easy.
But his terms have never changed. He wants neutrality for Ukraine,
no NATO membership, demilitarized, you can have some kind of
paramilitary force and get rid of the Neo Nazis, and
that's that's it. That's that's the package. It hasn't changed.
(46:47):
The only thing that has changed is as the Russians
take more provinces, they're going to keep them. So my
question for Zelenski was do you want to fight to
the last Ukrainian Now? Now the Russians had four provinces
plus Crimea that were on the Lange. Now they may
take Sumi. Sumi is another province near Kursk, and it's
it's basically the gateway to the Kiep. That was not
(47:10):
in play. The Russians weren't going for that until Zelensky
stupidly invaded the Russian province Curse, and then the Russians
wiped out those elite Ukrainian troops. Wipe them out. They
gave the up, They gave them the opportunity to surrender.
But Zelensky keeps ordering them to fight to the death.
So they all died and now the Russians are going
to take Sumi. So how much do you want to lose?
That's my question? Why would Trump want to be involved?
Speaker 7 (47:35):
Jim, can you hang on for the next hour.
Speaker 10 (47:37):
I've got We've got capital markets fed a reserve, big
controversy about Jay Powell. Also want your thoughts on Trumpanomics.
It's starting to kick in now. We're starting to see
that home title lock. Remember eighty to ninety percent of
your total net worth is tied up in that piece
of paper called a title.

It's a fairly rudimentary system in the United States. That's
one reasons it's so susceptible to someone getting into it.

team at Home Title Lock. Right now they have one
million dollar triple lock protection. What does that mean? First,
you get twenty four hour coverage alerts immediately if anybody's
messing with or looking at your title, and if all

Next Hour. Actually big, a big revolt in Japan last night.
We're gonna get to that. We get Ben Harnwell, Matt Brainerd,
Jim Murky is gonna stick around, General Mike Flynn all
Next Hour in the War Room
Maria.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
The implications of this are frankly, nothing short of historic.
Over one hundred documents that we released on Friday really
detail and provide evidence of how this treason is conspiracy
was directed by President Obama.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Just weeks before he was due to leave.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Office, after President Trump had already gotten elected. This is
not a Democrat or Republican issue. This is an issue
that is so serious it should concern every single American
because it has to do with the integrity of our
democratic republic. What we saw occur here, as the documents
we released detailed, was that we had a sitting president
(00:40):
of the United States and his cabinet and leadership team,
quite frankly, who were not happy with the fact that
President Trump had won the election, that the American people
had chosen Donald J. Trump to be the next president
commander in chief of the United States, and so they
decided that they would do everything possible to try to
undermine his ability to do what voters task President Trump
(01:03):
to do. So, creating this piece of manufactured intelligence that
claims that Russia had helped Donald Trump get elected contradicted
every other assessment that had been made previously in the
months leading up to the election that said exactly the opposite,
that Russia neither had neither the intent nor the capability
to try to quote unquote hack the United States election
(01:26):
for the presidency of the United States. So the effect
of what President Obama and his senior national security team
did was subvert the will of the American people, undermining
our democratic republic and enacting what would be essentially a
year's long coup against President Trump, who was duly elected
(01:48):
by the American people.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
We have a lot to.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Run on, and you have a lot to run against
given the other party. But I will tell you this,
we better be united, We better be strong, We better
be focused, we better be articulate. We can't waste our
time on Epstein and other stuff that are going on
here that some people want us to focus on about
hat it with all that stuff, we better focus on
who we are, what we're doing, where we want to
(02:10):
take the country, and what they want to do to
the country.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
But what happened.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
How did they actually get the public to believe and
have the public believed that actually Trump did collude.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Well, this is the thing, Maria, when you look at
the assessments that were made, not just by one element
of the intelligence community, but in my role as the
Director of National Intelligence, I oversee eighteen different intelligence community elements,
and in the months leading up to the November twenty
sixteen election, the intelligence community agreed that there was no
(02:45):
intelligence that reflected that Russia was trying to hack the
election in favor of either candidate. The evidence showed the
intelligence showed that again Russia did not have either the
intent nor the capability to be able to impact the
outcome of the United States election.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
So it was very striking when.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
We look back again at the documents that I declassified
and released, that shows there was a shift in early December.
The first week of December, again, another document was produced
by the intelligence community of President's Daily Brief that was
consistent with every other assessment that was done previously leading
up to the election. Russia did not, this is after
(03:28):
the election now did not attempt to affect the outcome
of the American election.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
That was never published.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Hours before it would have gone into President Obama's President's
Daily Brief, it was pulled by a senior level intelligence
official saying that they had to pull it because they
had received new guidance. The very next day, this meeting
was called a National Security Council meeting bring all together
all of the senior leaders of President Obama's cabinet, and
(04:01):
the topic that was put forward was a sensitive matter.
The tasks that came out of that meeting was coming
from President Obama directing the intelligence community, then Obama's OD
and I Director Clapper to produce a document to produce
an intelligence assessment that detailed not if, but how Moscow
(04:24):
affected the outcome of the election that had already occurred,
electing Donald Trump to the presidency. This document that they
published in January of twenty seventeen was the foundational groundwork
that they continued to reference over and over and over
again to enact this year's long coup against President Trump.
Speaker 6 (04:45):
How to Resist the Epstein Temptation. In it, Ben writes this,
there's obviously great fun in watching the world's dumbest media revolution,
the social media Epstein detectives lied by led by podcasters
turned Keystone cops children.
Speaker 7 (05:01):
There are political.
Speaker 8 (05:02):
Incentives for Democrats to join mega and stoken wild theories,
and there are good non conspiratorial questions about how Epstein
linked business, social climbing, and sex. Maybe investigative documents, perhaps
including the files Trump ordered released can answer some of
those questions, but those of us trying to stay sane
(05:24):
ought to keep in mind the distinction between evidence and speculation,
fantasy and reality.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
And I understand that there is more, perhaps that you
are going to come out with next week. And I
was told that that's why they rated Mara A Lago,
that they wanted to find the Trump Russia documents that
indicated there was absolutely no collusion and that there was
no evidence to even start such an investigation. But Trump
(05:52):
didn't have it there in Mara A Lago. But that's
why they rated his house in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Is that correct.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I don't have the details on the specifics of the
mar A Lago raid itself, those are within the possession
of the FBI. But there's no question in my mind
that this intelligence community assessment that President Obama ordered be published,
which contained a manufactured intelligence document, it's worse than even
(06:22):
politicization of intelligence.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
It was manufactured intelligence that.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Sought to achieve President Obama and his team's objective, which
was undermining President Trump's presidency and subverting the will of
the American people.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
So yes, next week we will be releasing.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
More detailed information about how exactly this took place, and
the extent to which this information was sought to be
hidden from the American people, hidden from officials who would
be in a position to do something about it. And
that's really the point here that I think is most important, Maria,
and you said it in your opening. Accountability is essential
(07:01):
for the future of our country, for the American people
to have any sense of trust in the integrity of
our democratic republic. Accountability, action, prosecution, indictments for those who
are responsible for trying to steal our democracy is essential
for us to make sure that this never happens to
our country again.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
There's no need to doubt it.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Cause you're in N's no need.
Speaker 7 (07:51):
I'll say it when you saw it on you tend.
Speaker 9 (07:57):
And that's who you will.
Speaker 7 (07:58):
By many, this is the primal screen of a dying regime.
Speaker 10 (08:12):
Pray for our enemies, because we're going to medieval on
these people.
Speaker 11 (08:17):
There's not got a free shot.
Speaker 10 (08:19):
All these networks lying about the people, the people have
had a.
Speaker 7 (08:22):
Belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that.
I know you try to do everything in the world
to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
It's going to happen.
Speaker 8 (08:29):
And where do people like that go to share the
big line mega media.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of
these people had a conscience.
Speaker 10 (08:39):
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
Speaker 4 (08:43):
If that answer is to save my country, this country.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Will be saved. Here's your host, Stephen k Ban.
Speaker 10 (08:58):
It's Monday, twenty one July. You're of a Lord twenty
twenty five. This is going to be a tag, gonna
be action pack. We Taulci Gabbart there, so she's going
to release more information.
Speaker 7 (09:08):
We're going to break down.
Speaker 10 (09:09):
We got more of her interview, uh with Maria. We'll
break it down. Jim Richards is going to join us. Also,
General Flyn's going to join us a little bit later.
I want to play.
Speaker 7 (09:20):
That that was actually.
Speaker 10 (09:22):
The end of that was actually put up by President Trump.
I guess it's artificial intelligence, right President Trump? Last night
on his truth Social he bombarded true social in the
media with a number of just explosive truth you know,
I guess these these postings he puts up about Tulci Gabbert,
(09:44):
about the deep State, about you can tell his rising
anger about what happened I think as he gets into
more of the details, two things other happening, we'll get
clips to home and and Christy Nobus gave a press
conference and officer see a customer at border of Trot
think has been shot and killed, wounded, has been wounded,
(10:04):
shot in the face, wounded in critical condition.
Speaker 7 (10:07):
I guess.
Speaker 10 (10:08):
And they just had a these ice officers, customers and
border patrol. This is why they wearing the mask. They're
completely under assault. Also under assault everything President Trump does.
And this is why the Justice Department's under siege with
the almost two hundred lawsuits against President Trump's Article two powers. Now,
Elena Habab, one of President Trump's closest lawyers and confidence,
(10:31):
has been doing a great job as the acting or
iguinst the inroim us attorney in New Jersey. I think
it's threatened to be removed today at ten am by
Hakeem Jefferies and a bunch of judges in New Jersey.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
Mike Davis joins us.
Speaker 10 (10:46):
Mike explained to the audience what's going on because this
is quite confusing situation. She's there on an interim basis,
I guess, an acting basis. Been doing a great job.
How is she being removed by these kind of radical
neo Marxist judges, federal judges and Jersey working with King
Jeffrey Sir.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Yes, US attorneys are generally nominated by the President in
consultation with the home state senators through the Blue slips,
where the home state senators have a veto over the
US attorney nomination because they want to be able to
hand select the prosecutor who would prosecute their corruption case,
the district court judge who would oversee their corruption case,
(11:26):
and the US marshall that would escort them to prison.
But that's not going away. That's been around for over
one hundred years. That's nonsense called the blue slip. But regardless,
the President, through his Attorney General, can appoint a US
attorney for one hundred and twenty days. We saw this
with Judge Janine Piro in DC. We saw this with
(11:48):
Alina Habba and New Jersey. We saw this with other
US attorneys around the country. And then after that one
hundred and twenty day appointment, if the if the US
attorney is not not dominated and confirmed by the Senates,
there's a statute. I think it's unconstitutional, but there's a
statute that lets the district court judges in the district
(12:09):
where the US attorney rules, they get a pick, They
get a vote to pick whether the US attorney stays
or goes. In the past, this is generally that these
judges have generally been very deferential to the Attorney General
and the President because this is a US attorney, it's
the chief law enforcement officer of that district. Well, we're
(12:32):
seeing a precedent sets in this Trump forty seven administration
where these Democrats activist judges, whether they're in New York
or now New Jersey, are trying to fire these US attorneys.
They're voting to fire. In New Jersey, there are seventeen
district court judges, fifteen of them are appointed by Barack
(12:57):
Obama and Joe Biden. So at ten o'clock this morning,
right now, they're meeting to decide to vote whether to
get rid of Alena Habbin. This is after House Democrat
Leader Hakeem Jeffries posted a post on x A couple
days ago calling for these seventeen New Jersey District Court
(13:18):
judges to get rid of Alina Habba and the reason
because Alena Haba indicted a House Democrat member who allegedly
assaults it federal immigration officers. So this is purely political
by Hakim Jeffries. So I just last night filed a
(13:39):
House ethics complaint from the Article three project against Takeem
Jeffries because he is trying to get these seventeen New
Jersey federal judges to violate their judicial ethics. Cannons two, three,
and five of the Code of Conduct for United States
Judges makes it illegal for judges to make the political
(14:03):
considerations that Hakeem Jeffries has urged them to make by
firing US Attorney Alina Habbah because she brought an indictment
against a Democrat House member for allegedly assaulting a.
Speaker 9 (14:16):
Federal ice agent. So we'll see what happens today.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
That ethics complaint is going to go against Akeem Jeffries.
Speaker 9 (14:22):
That's in the process.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
And I would say to these seventeen district court judges
in New Jersey, if they follow Hakeem Jefferies' recommendation and
fire US Attorney Aleena Hobba.
Speaker 9 (14:34):
Today, they will also face judicial.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Misconduct complaints, seventeen of them from the Article three projects.
Speaker 10 (14:42):
But this is part of this is that we haven't
called in the District judges in DC to be deposed
openly fromd of the American anyway, Mike, stick around. We
got to get to the bottom of this short break
back in a moment, America, use your.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Host, Stephen K.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Bath.
Speaker 7 (15:05):
Okay, welcome back. I want to thank Birch Goal.
Speaker 10 (15:07):
Take your phone out right now if you want to
understand about gold is aheadge and particularly in the times
of turbulence we've got going on. We're gonna have a
lot more about recisions and about impoundments. Scott Besen was
on today Tom about the Federal Reserve. Jim Orker is
gonna join us in a moment. We're gonna have some
turbulence up ahead as the as the supply side tax
(15:30):
cut kicks in. Take out your phone and text Bannon
b A N N O N N nine eight.
Speaker 7 (15:36):
This is a very.
Speaker 10 (15:37):
Simple but detailed guide. It's a handbook, the ultimate handbook
on how to invest in gold and precious metals in
the age of Trump. Very definitive, talks about four one
k's I raise all of it. So check it out
and it's free and you get a relationship with Philip
Patrick and the team. If Phillip's gonna be on with
me tomorrow. We're gonna go through a lot about the
(16:00):
what's happening with the dollar, gold versus the dollar. So
Mike Davis over the weekend with Tulci Gabbert, what's happening
on Epstein's situation?
Speaker 7 (16:09):
You had a coup? This is this, quite.
Speaker 10 (16:12):
Frankly, is about who governs US is when someone's elected
to the officer of the president with the powers of
the presidency, that you've done such an incredible job at
Article three, butchersing and saying in that interregnum we had
for those number of years, working with Project twenty twenty
five and russ Vote and others to say, hey, you know,
(16:32):
he's chief executive officer of the United States.
Speaker 7 (16:35):
He can impound money. He can the Impoundment Act of
during Nixon, the distress of Nixon is illegitimate.
Speaker 10 (16:44):
He's the CEO, he can fire people, cut money. He's
commander in chief. He has almost unlimited powers as commander
in chief. And then he's the chief magistrate, chief law
enforcement officer. Now we're finding this is where the rubber
hits the road, because Kennedy was taken out in a nation.
Nixon was really a judicial coup with the CIA and FBI.
But Judge so rika the House, the lawyers at the House.
(17:07):
Have you read Jeff Shepherd's two books. That's stunning of
how the radical judiciary and that started this whole process
of hiving off the Justice Department in the FBI from
the president from his article to power that he's chief
magistrate and chief law enforcement officer.
Speaker 7 (17:22):
And that's why your work has been so great.
Speaker 10 (17:24):
President Trump went over there, I think on the second
and third day, into the halls of the DOJ and
Weisman and those guys have never recovered from that. Now
you have a situation that we have a judicial revolt
as we're now getting to how his first term was
taken from him right in a coup. That they're they're
you know, putting the evidence out every day.
Speaker 7 (17:44):
You see.
Speaker 10 (17:44):
Now, what's the one thing that's worked for the Democrats
is the ability although they're losing at the highest court,
they're slowing things down.
Speaker 7 (17:52):
To delay is to deny.
Speaker 10 (17:53):
And this is another example of even President Trump getting
who he wants in to actually work for him. So
this is a dual prong approach from the deep state
and also this radical judiciary, which I guess is the
legal and judicial arm of the deep state. I want
to start here by going back. What is blue slip?
I thought President Trump said, hey, look, I'm not crazy
(18:14):
about this. Blue slip understands customer tradition in the old days,
we had compromised.
Speaker 7 (18:19):
It wasn't bad.
Speaker 10 (18:20):
But this stops President Trump from actually getting US attorneys
in blue. And we know that the Neo Confederates run California,
they run Los Angeles, they control Illinois and Chicago, they
control New York and New York City. And you're not
going to deport ten to twenty million illegal alien invaders. Hell,
you just had a guy get shot in the face, right,
(18:41):
You're not going to do that unless you have hammers
as US attorneys going against these corrupt Marxist, neo Marxist
Democratic politicians. Sir, so, I thought we actually the blue
slip thing was something we kind of waved off a
couple of years ago.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
So I was when I was the Chief council for
Nominations on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Speaker 9 (19:00):
I was able to push very hard for then Chairman
and now Shairman.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Chuck Grassley to not give blue slip vetos for Federal
Circuit judge nominees because they touched more than one state.
But for US Attorney US Marshall district court judges, like
I say, there would be one hundred senator revolts. Of
these home state senators lost the ability to hand select
(19:25):
the prosecutor who would prosecute their corruption trial, the judge
would oversee the corruption trial, and the US Marshal who
would escort them to prison. So blue slips for district court,
US Attorney and US Marshall are not going away, probably ever.
But for circuit court judges, they lost the veto power.
You still have to do consultation with the home state
(19:48):
senators before you nominate a federal a federal appellate judge nominee.
But that's the reason we confirmed a near record number
of judges, including federal appellate judge in President Trump's first term,
is because we got rid of the blue slip veto
for federal circuit judges.
Speaker 10 (20:06):
You have to bounce, understand. That's what's the action. Article
three is on top of this with the President. He's outraged.
Aleena has done a great job. What is the call
to action this morning? Is anything the posse should do
to assist this? Is this This is occurring right now
with these fifteen of these seventeen judges making a decision
whether they want to get rid of her or not.
(20:27):
Is there anything for the warm posse to do in
coordination with Article three?
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Well, unfortunately, you can't call these judges because and that
makes this is even more weird. You have seventeen judges
deciding whether the president gets to keep his US attorney
in New Jersey, Aleena Habbah and there's nothing we can
do about it. This is It shows you how one
constitutional this is. Usually when the president picks someone, you
(20:51):
can call the president, you can call the White House switchboard,
or the Senate confirms someone. You can call your home
state senators. But you can't really call these judges. So again,
a total head scratcher.
Speaker 7 (21:05):
Okay, but you're on it with the you're with the
Ethics committee.
Speaker 10 (21:09):
Is that going to be anything powerful to Hakeem Jeffrey
since these guys don't have any ethics, do they care
or is this something technical you can jam him up
that he can't use his powers as minority leader.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
It is a clear violation of the House ethics rules
for a House member, particularly the top House democrat, to
strong arm seventeen federal judges to fire a United States
attorney because that United States attorney brought a federal indictment
(21:41):
through a grand jury against a Democrat House member for
allegedly assaulting federal immigration officers.
Speaker 9 (21:49):
That is a clear cutthouse ethics violation.
Speaker 7 (21:55):
Mike, thank you so much for joining us. I know
you get a boat.
Speaker 10 (21:57):
We'll follow this some one this morning and hopefully you'll
report back this afternoon.
Speaker 7 (22:01):
Thank you, Lena Hubob.
Speaker 10 (22:02):
And by the way, President Trump's done this on a
lot to have these acting US attorneys, and she's done
a fantastic job in New Jersey, which you think can imagine.
Speaker 7 (22:10):
No easy area.
Speaker 10 (22:12):
This is where Scott Presler in the Persistence movement is
up there right now. They believe that New Jersey is
going to be the next Pennsylvania's Pennsylvania because the next Ohio.
As far as registrations and get out the vote. Can
we play clip? I got Jim records up. I'd like
to play that Tulsi clip that we had. Let's go
and play it for.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
A Jim and I understand that there is more, perhaps
that you are going to come out with next week.
And I was told that that's why they raided Mara
A Lago that they wanted to find the Trump Russia
documents that indicated there was absolutely no collusion and that
there was no evidence to even start such an investigation.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
But Trump didn't have it there in mar A Lago.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
But that's why they rated his house in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Is that correct.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
I don't have the details on the specifics of the
mar mar A Lago raid itself, those are within the
possession of the FBI. But there's no question in my
mind that this intelligence community assessment that President Obama ordered
be published, which contained a manufactured intelligence document, it's worse
(23:20):
than even politicization of intelligence. It was manufactured intelligence that
sought to achieve President Obama and his team's objective, which
was undermining President Trump's presidency and subverting the will of
the American people. So yes, next week we will be
releasing more detailed information about how exactly this took place
(23:41):
and the extent to which this information was sought to
be hidden from the American people, hidden from officials who
would be in a position to do something about it.
And that's really the point here that I think is
most important, Maria, and you said it in your opening.
Accountability is essential for the future of our country, for
(24:01):
the American people to have any sense of trust in
the integrity of our democratic republic. Accountability, action, prosecution, indictments
for those who are responsible for trying to steal our
democracy is essential for us to make sure that this
never happens to our country again.
Speaker 10 (24:22):
I mean, the president last night on True Social when
all in including that far bia from me to say
it's the over the top artificial intelligence on Obama. It's
pretty powerful. We'll play that again after the break. Jim
Rickards joins us. Jim, we're going to talk about Ukraine.
We've got many geopolitical issues to talk to you about,
(24:42):
but a lot of them get back to this whole
situation in fifteen and sixteen with the intelligence apparatus. Unbelievably understand,
they didn't stop Trump from winning, so they had to
come about it a different way. You've seen Tulsi her releases.
She said right there, a heads up. The FBI's got
I think information that will be released shortly about the
(25:05):
mar Lago raid. There were a reason for it. What's
your overall assessment. In the first couple of days, this
hit on Friday in kind of a bombshell.
Speaker 7 (25:13):
What's your first cut assessment?
Speaker 11 (25:16):
My first cut assessment. By the way, I've had the
privilege of meeting in Telsia, spending some time with her.
I live in New Hampshire. She was finding for president.
You get to meet all the candidates, unusual for Washington.
She's a really nice person, but boy is she's smart
and she does not shoot from the hip. One of
my favorite Tulsi clips is she's doing she was in
a live fire exercise. You know, she's active duty to military,
(25:38):
and she changed the clip on an MR four in
the obstacle course, so while she was you know, rolling
and so forth. So she's she's completely serious, and they've
done this. I say they This is obviously comment from
the intelligence community. She's the head of the intelligence community.
These were not just lose accusations. This was not just oh,
maybe we're going to take a closer look at this.
She had you know, I had to use cliches, but
(25:59):
she had the receipt She had intelligence community documents that
were released and other descriptions, et cetera that point directly
at this conspiracy. Now the thing that, now, by the way,
after ten years of this, you know Special Counsel Robert Muller,
you know, Inspector General and Jim Jordan seems like a
nice guy. But you know, ten years of talk is enough.
(26:20):
We want to see some action. My impression is that
this is going to lead directly to action. They've done
a lot of things right. So for example, they're using
they're looking at conspiracy and rico type charges. That is
very powerful in two different ways. Number One, it casts
a wider net. You could be you can have a
very tangential world. If you're part of a conspiracy. You
can get dragged in and charged with some of the
(26:41):
highest charges that will be applied to the conspiracy itself.
Speaker 10 (26:45):
More important, Jim, Jim, Jim, hold them more importantly. I'm
gonna leave him on the hook a cliffhanger. Jim Rickards
is in the war room. Short commercial break back in
a moment, use your Stephen K.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Bath.
Speaker 7 (27:06):
Okay, welcome back.
Speaker 10 (27:07):
We've got a massive conspiracy to a is a coup
to remove President Trump from office after he legitimately won
in twenty seventeen, sixteen seventeen, and it continued on, it
continues on to this day. You have the auto pen situation.
You got the Epstein situation. You've got the question I
(27:27):
keep asking who runs this country, right, who actually runs
it the voters, the will of the people, or at
this apparatus we call the deep state, which is the
interconnection of the intelligence services, law enforcement, national security, in
the military, in finance. Jim Rickards, I want to just
hit rewind for a second. You know, Tulsi, she's a
(27:47):
serious person, folks. This is the reason Tulsie Gavin has
been getting lit up in the press, in the Langley Bugle, right,
this is the reason that the Langley Bugle, what we
call the Washington Post, right, David Ignation and that crowd
have been lighting her up and saying how great the
CIA is, and how tremendous the CIA.
Speaker 7 (28:05):
Is, and what a great job they did in Israel.
Speaker 10 (28:07):
This weekend, folks, the Times of Israel, Okay, not exactly
war Room, the Times of Israel, Axios, immediaite all did
huge stories of how the White House has had a
belly full of net and Yahoo, that he's out of control,
not just pushing for it in continuation regime change, war
(28:27):
with the Persians, but he's out of control everywhere from
bus shelling Catholic churches to what's going on instead of
being focused in Gaza, just kind of random violence in
Gaza all over and the description from the White Houses
he's a madman. Okay, Tulca Gabbert has been getting lit
up because the CIA, in conjunction with the Masad came
(28:48):
up with the urgent, the urgency that we had to
get into it with the Persians. Jim Rickards. We know
she's a serious person. We know she can also take incoming.
She's kind of unflappable. She can take in has she
as over the last couple of months and then delivered
a bombshell, a bombshell that President Trump got on board early,
but last night he went next level of his enthusiasm
(29:09):
for this, including having this little film put together with
Obama being actually incarcerated. I want to go back to
your You're saying they're smart and the way they're doing this,
given your knowledge of the intelligence community and particularly going
directly to a conspiracy and to Rico using the Rico
statues to get to go over this, Can you continue
(29:30):
on your analysis, sir?
Speaker 11 (29:33):
Sure? So the first point we made this conspiracy widens
the net, so people tangentially involved can be kind of
hauled in to the core of the conspiracy and face
those charges because they contributed to it. But more importantly,
it extends the statute of limitations, because the immediate reaction
to some of this was yeah, maybe, but it was
you know, twenty sixteen. That was nine years ago. The
(29:54):
statues five years or seven years, depending on the offense.
That's not how it works in a conspiracy. Start the
statute of limitations from the last Act, and that would
be at least the rate on mar A Lago. If
I were I happened to be a lawyer, if I
were a lawyer to any of these potential defendants, I
would say, keep off the phone and don't talk to
any of the other people back. Don't talk about it
at all. Every phone call that furthers the conspiracy starts
(30:18):
the statue limitations over again. So you are not going
to have a statue of limitations problem. So wide net
statue of limitation is simply not a problem. The other
thing you look at is what's called benu and jurisdiction. Well,
Chris Ray sent the goon squads into mari A Lago
to go through Milania's lingerie. Thank you, that just handed
the white House A or the Department of Justice a
(30:39):
Florida jurisdiction, so you could bring the case in Floyd.
You can bring in other states as well. This was
a pretty widespread coup. Pick your state, and you're certainly
not going to pick Washington, DC, or New York or
any other Democratic stronghold. So statual limitation is not a problem.
Conspiracy castle wide net. Florida jurisdiction is clear other states
(31:00):
if you prefer so. My point is they've really thought
this through, anticipated all the objections or all the potential defenses,
and structured in such a way that those defenses fall down.
And the last point, I encouraged the war whim and
possibly read. What Telsea gabbartt actually released was the kind
of a one page tons of documents behind it. But
(31:22):
what she actually released again serious person. She used the
word coup. The word coup was in there, which is
what it was. I think you're right, absolutely right about that.
She also used the word treason's I think of the
word was treason us but okay, the root word is treason,
one of the very few chron is mentioned in the Constitution.
Of course, you can get the death penalty for that.
So this was carefully crafted, carefully thought through. They anticipated
(31:45):
the defenses. They've knocked them down before they can even
be raised. I would expect in due course, but maybe
sooner than later, grand juries, indictments, trials, and some convictions.
Speaker 10 (31:58):
Jim given you know that community very well, and you
know geopolitics very well. When someone is serious, as Tulsi
Gabbert d and I who has eighteen seventeen or eighteen
of these massive intelligence apparatus report to her, when she
uses the word coup and she used the word treason,
(32:19):
this conspiracy, how serious should the intelligence community and those
that perpetrate these crimes.
Speaker 7 (32:25):
Take this, sir?
Speaker 11 (32:28):
It doesn't get any more serious. I mean unless unless
you're pulling a trigger somewhere, you know, coup in treason,
that's that's as bad as a guess. And again that's
one of the few crimes mentioned in the Constitution, so
which means that you could be looking at a very
long prison sentences at a minimum. By the way, the
conspiracy went on for years. I talked about the statial limitations,
but you know, through through the Special Council, through Maler,
(32:51):
through the mar Lago raid, they're behind the scenes. People
are still planning these things. You said, the SWAT team,
the PSA team didn't just show up in more Lago.
So there are more conversations related to that and Obama.
Not only is Obama not off the hook, he appears
to be at the center of it. You go through
the chronology that that Telsea Gaber laid out was very clear.
(33:14):
But the intelligence community said the Russians had nothing to
do with interference with the twenty sixteen election, either you know,
kind of hacking voting machines or but anything really yeah,
you know internet social media agents that said had nothing
to do with it. That's what they said in two assessments,
is one from the CIA and one from the FBI,
(33:36):
and then the White House with Obama in the room,
said no change it. Let's let's let's create a conspiracy.
They introduced the Steel, the Steele dossier, Christopher Steele, the
I six. Well, he wasn't the Moscow station chief. He
ran the Russian desk in London. But they had six
agent on the Russian on the Russian file made it up.
(33:59):
By the way, the history of intelligence operators making things
up is as long as the history of intelligence. So
some intelligence is solid and good but you know, they
make things up for propaganda reason, sort of steer you
in the wrong direction, et cetera. It's you know what, Angleton,
I actually met a company Shakespeare originally called the Wilderness
of Mirrors. I mean, when you're in it, you get
it is a wilderness of mirors. They lie to each other,
(34:20):
they make things up and or or do or hide
the real intelligence, et cetera. So they knew that that
dot it was fake, and they insisted on putting it
in to give them the justification. And by the way,
our friend James Boseberg, the federal judge in Washington, d C.
He was the PISA judge at the time they proved
(34:41):
these warrants. And of course he's another one standing in
the way of Trump's immigrants.
Speaker 10 (34:46):
So they're all in it together, the dots, the dots
are connecting. By the way, I'm still working through a
couple of biographies of Angleton on the Kennedy coup. This
has real world implications. What's obvious in the audience, Grayce
and Moe. I think we did it over the weekend,
but I want to do it again and make sure
the war room posse gets every opportunity and availability to
(35:07):
read the documents as they come out. Tulsi's kind of
cover letter or cover post, and then all the different
documents you should read them. And we're gonna be putting
up and I'll be putting up on getter all types
of Now. So like I said, General Flynn's going to
join us, we'll have posts. So back on tomorrow. Post
is doing virtue his entire shows every day on this.
It has real world implications. What comes out in these
(35:29):
in these emails, the hatred of Trump is you can
you can almost taste it. They had their hatred of Trump,
but their hatred of Russia is at the same level.
If this changed the arch of history, if this had
not happened, and because what they wanted to do to
make sure there could never be a rapprocheman that we
could do a reverse niction. They could never be a
(35:50):
rapprocheman between the Trump administration and the United States in
the Russian people, that could take them out of the
sphere with the Chinese Communist Party, so together other we
could figure out how to deal with the existential threat
to the United States, which is the CCP. We know that,
and people that watch the show know that talk to
(36:10):
me about that we're gonna talk about Ukraine. There wouldn't
be two million dead people dead, you know, and that
is Russian troops, Ukrainian troops and Ukrainian civilians. If this
had not been allowed to happen, if we had broken this,
if this had been made visible immediately. This has real
war implications. And today, you know, the President on I
think the day after Labor Day. As we continue right now,
(36:34):
secondary sanctions are going to come in against the Chinese
Communist Party, full economic warfare against Russia, and the Ukraine
situation only gets worse and worse and worse. We played
in the cold open Lindsey Graham last night so offensively
he's tying what President Trump is trying to do to
Scotti Shuffler's huge victory and the Open Championship essay, saying, hey,
(36:57):
Trump's given on my ass. Whooping you got Tom Cotton
and Lindsey Graham. These people are out of control. But
this goes back, you see the beginning of it, because
they never thought Trump would win. When Trump won, it
was like this complete hatred of Trump and everything he
stood for because it was against the deep state. But
as seriously as their hatred of Russia, that nothing could
(37:18):
come in to their plan to try to take down
the Russian people.
Speaker 7 (37:21):
Jim rickarts your thoughts.
Speaker 11 (37:24):
That's exactly right, and this kind of point said people
like Vinman, Fiona Hill. A lot of this so called
Russia experts were witnesses at the Trump's first impeachment trial
impeachment proceeding, which was based on a phone called a Zelenski.
So we're all kind of creatures of our academic train
(37:45):
at least if you're at that expert level and you
went to a certain period. You know, I was in
graduate school and international relations in the seventies before I
went to law school. That was the height of the
Cold War. But the people who are kind of late
forties fifties today, they went to school in the nineties.
What was going on in the nineties, Well, this the
Soviet Union collapse officially dissolved in December nineteen ninety one.
(38:07):
Putin came in to power around twousand, late ninety nine,
two thousand. What happened in that kind of ten year
period Russia was to borrow West. They handed out all
these shares of all these companies to everyday Russian people.
The oligarchs, you know, set up card tables and the
lobbies of apartment buildings said he, I'll give you some
cash for your shares. They acquired all these shares. Sometimes
there were two or three that were the machine gun
(38:27):
fights in the streets of Moscow was like Chicago in
the nineteen twenties. But what was America doing. We were
telling them how to run a central bank, how to
set up a stock exchange, how to do basically IPOs
of all the wealth in Russia so we could acquire
it ourselves, break up Russia into separate republics. This was
the heyday of the Russia haters who ended all that.
(38:49):
It was Putin. Putin came in. By the way, Putin's
support does not come from the oligarchs. That's a myth.
He's at odds with the oligarchs. He said, hey, you
can have your money in your business, but keep out
of politics. Don't get my way where you'll end up
in jail. And they got the message. But Putin's support
is the military, the Orthodox Church and everyday Russians. Those
(39:11):
are the three pillars of Putin support. His polls are
off the charge eighty five to ninety percent. Popularity. He
understands the soul of Russia. One of the most interesting
things I've ever heard from a Russian was he said,
you know the problem with you Americans. You think we're
like you because we're white. But Russia is a completely
different civilization, different religion, different history, etc. But so when
(39:35):
Putin came along, the Benmn's and the Fiona Hills of
the world hated them because he upset the applicat, He
upset their game. He upset their game to loot Russia
basically for the benefit of US investors, and so they
hate him. In fact, Putin could be our best friend again.
I'll come back to my analogy. I hope it's not
to used up, but there are only three countries in
(39:57):
the world that matter China, Russia, and the United States, Sorry, Germany,
UK your secondary powers. It's a three handed poker game.
A three handed poker game, it's always two against one
and the one is the sucker. And if you don't
know who the sucker is, you're the sucker. Nixon understood this.
That's why he opened the door to China, so we
could isolate the Soviet Union really Russia, and then you know,
(40:19):
the court eighty nine, the Berlin Wall falls, ninety one,
the Soviet Union dissolves. Now we need to pivot to Russia,
aligned with Russia and isolate China to defeat the Communist Party.
But they can't stand that. They meaning, uh, you know,
basically the neocons, the Victoria Newlands, the Fiona Hills, George Kent,
(40:41):
basically the entire farm Party policy establishment. They can't stand it.
Speaker 10 (40:45):
So Jim, Jim, Jim, hang in one second, We're just
going to take a short commercial brew.
Speaker 7 (40:51):
Jim Ricketts on the other.
Speaker 10 (40:52):
Side, let us take down let's say.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
Confuse your host, Stephen k back.
Speaker 10 (41:04):
Remember the engine room sends me this to reminder body,
it's this conspiracy against President Trump, this coup against President Trump,
this treasonous conspiracy against President Trump. Is against President Trump,
but it's also against the government that was voted in
by the American people, and it's by individuals, and those
individuals I understand and appreciate. There is frustration with hey,
(41:26):
we had Durham, we had all this, how come we
having anybody purple walk Yet on their side, it's also
about institutions. It's the institutions that need to be purged. Finally,
we have to get the courage to do that, to
break apart the FBI, to break apart the CIA. Right now, Jim,
what is our way out? What is a peaceful solution?
Putin just said the other day he is prepared to
(41:48):
talk peace, didn't say specifically with Zelenski, but what is
our way out of this Ukraine situation to make sure
that we avoid getting sucked in and exorably drawn drawn
in into a increasing land war on the regional land mass.
Speaker 11 (42:03):
Sir, well, that tried to be clear. Sergei Lavrov, the
Foreign Minister, Russia and Putin have been willing to talk
peace since before the special military operation began, certainly since
then in February twenty twenty two, but even before that
they said we'll sit down and talk about this. But
what they will not do is agree to an unconditional ceasefire.
(42:25):
And that's the problem Trump. People ask me if I'm maga.
I say no, I'm super maga. Okay, So I'm very
very supportive of everything Trump's doing. I gave a big
presentation last week and bok Ratona on Maganomics was very
well received. I went through kind of scott essence, three
arrows and Peter Navarrus tariffs since Steve Morant's marlog record,
(42:47):
and I showed how it was really very very well
thought out and the gears meshed really brilliantly. But Trump
is in danger of losing that legacy, basically destroying his
administration due to the war in Ukraine. He should have
he had a perfect opportunity to get out at the
beginning of this year. Was it was Biden's war, not
Trump's war. He missed that he's getting been studying the
(43:11):
Indian wars of the eighteen sixties and eighteen seventies, that
Trump's getting what the Indians called bad medicine from Lindsey Graham.
I think Mark or Rubio. I like Mark Rubio, but
I think he's kind of in this camp. Mike Wallas
is still around. I know he's, you know, a Bachelor
of the u M. But he's in there, and certainly
know Lindsey Graham and others. He's just getting sucked in
(43:32):
and they won't end it. They you know, they're going
to give them a new weapons. By the way, this
whole thing with Trump announcing we're going to we're going
to start to sell weapons for Ukraine, but we're going
to sell them to NATO and then they're going to
pay us, so we're actually going to get money for it. Well,
a couple of things wrong with that. Number One, NATO
is a treaty organization. It's not an arms merchant, arms dealer,
or an army. There's no such thing as a NATO army.
(43:53):
It's a treaty. I guess you could be purpose it
for that, but that's the first problem. They don't buy arms.
They never had this some president. Number two, where's the
money coming from? Germany, UK, France, Italy is basically said,
we're out of this game. Spain has no interest. But
even Germany, France, and the UK don't have the money
for this. They all have a budget problems. They do
(44:13):
not have robust military budgets. There's no unified fund for
so not clear where the money's coming from. Number Three,
the US doesn't have the weapons. We've completely run down
our supplies of one hundred and fifty five millimeters shelves,
patriot an and missile batteries. We have some, but there
supposed to be in the United States to protect the
United States or they're going to go to Israel. We're
not selling any to Ukraine or Tonado to be delivered
(44:37):
to Ukraine. How many do the Europeans have a handful?
Three or four?
Speaker 5 (44:40):
Here?
Speaker 11 (44:40):
They don't have ten or fourteen or whatever is Zelenski
was talking about. And number four. Every one of these
systems has failed. We've been doing this for three years,
over three and a half years. At this point, they've
all failed. That the armored personnel carriers, the tanks, the challengers,
the lepers, the aprons, that they were all left burning
on the battlefield. Why don't you hear about that sixteens anymore?
(45:00):
Because they're getting shot down by Russian Russian missiles. Why
don't you hear about Hoimar's precision got it artillery because
the Rusians figured out how to jam the GPS systems
so they fly into cornfields and don't do any harm.
And those, all these systems have failed. So what do
you want to do? Give them? Give them Tomahawk cruise
missiles to aim at Moscow. Okay, that's a real short
pat to World War three, because that what Putin will do.
(45:23):
He'll attack the launching systems in Romania. Now you're attacking Nator.
Now you aren't. World War three. We're pretty close already,
but that would be the less straws. So is that
what Trump wants because the Russians they're not back in
the way. Show me an army in history or military
and history that agreed to an unconditional CEA square when
they were winning the losing side once. Of course they
(45:44):
want time out, replant is give little R and R whatever.
But Russia's winning. This is coming down to the Battle
of Poklovsk right now. So in twenty twenty two we
had Mariopo, twenty twenty three, we had Bachmut, twenty twenty four,
we had Debka. These are all major cities, major battles.
They took a while, but the Russians won everyone. Now
(46:05):
pak Posk is the next target. It's the Russian he said,
why haven't the Russians invaded it for the past year,
at least spent the past year surrounding it, cutting off
all the supply routes, taking every village anywhere in the vicinity.
When they get it is a major logistics of if
you take it, the Ukrainians cannot supply their entire front
and dombas, and then at that point there's nothing stopping in.
The Russians been going to the Nepro River. So why
(46:27):
should the Russians agree to anything. Now, if you want
to talk to Putin, he's a phone call away, that's easy.
But his terms have never changed. He wants neutrality for Ukraine,
no NATO membership, demilitarized, you can have some kind of
paramilitary force and get rid of the Neo Nazis, and
that's that's it. That's that's the package. It hasn't changed.
(46:47):
The only thing that has changed is as the Russians
take more provinces, they're going to keep them. So my
question for Zelenski was do you want to fight to
the last Ukrainian Now? Now the Russians had four provinces
plus Crimea that were on the Lange. Now they may
take Sumi. Sumi is another province near Kursk, and it's
it's basically the gateway to the Kiep. That was not
(47:10):
in play. The Russians weren't going for that until Zelensky
stupidly invaded the Russian province Curse, and then the Russians
wiped out those elite Ukrainian troops. Wipe them out. They
gave the up, They gave them the opportunity to surrender.
But Zelensky keeps ordering them to fight to the death.
So they all died and now the Russians are going
to take Sumi. So how much do you want to lose?
That's my question? Why would Trump want to be involved?
Speaker 7 (47:35):
