(00:15):
Well, good day ladies and gentlemen, games here at the
Tropics TV Studios in Vancouver,BC I do apologize.
I have been away for several days, have been working on
several different productions both for network TV and of
course major streaming platforms.
But I am back and here I am tonight.
(00:37):
We are going to look into various headlines and stories
and we're also going to take a look at a very interesting deep
dive into the attempted assassination of Donald Trump
just over a year ago and if it really happened at all or was it
just staged? Should Donald Trump be facing
(01:00):
charges and a major independent third party investigation into
the alleged, it says assassination attempt on Donald
Trump and what happened to the alleged assassin and his family?
Donald Trump hasn't made mentionof him, which is very odd for
somebody who alleges to have been shot in the ear.
(01:21):
Even if it's just a graze, it issomething that Donald Trump
would likely be talking about ifit was real.
So we'll get into a deep dive just after we touch on all of
the news headlines coming to youfrom across Canada and around
the world. But we will start, of course,
locally here in Metro Vancouver.Now tonight, we're covering
(01:43):
stories of immense pressure on our systems both at home and
abroad. Now here in Metro Vancouver, a
new report has branded the city's housing market impossibly
unaffordable. For those of us who live in the
Metro Vancouver area, we know how crazy the prices have gotten
as well as the increased cost ofliving.
(02:03):
Now the impossibility of unaffordable housing has been
ranked as fourth most expensive in the world.
While if we look at other issuesthat are putting immense
pressure. Also we are looking at the
hospital and medical crisis. Yes, our emergency rooms are
hitting a crisis point with rolling closures again becoming
(02:26):
dangerously common. Now nationally, the federal
government is in crisis mode with Prime Minister holding
emergency meetings with premiersto forge unified response to a
new wave of American tariffs that threatened to destabilize
the Canadian economy. Will also be taking a look at in
international marketing of at the 80th anniversary in Japan of
(02:52):
the atomic bombing of Hiroshima amid nuclear or sorry, renewed
nuclear threats globally. At the same time, Washington
escalates a trade war with Indiaover its purchase of Russian oil
and makes a stunning reversal onpublic health policy, cutting
hundreds of millions of dollars in funding for the very vaccine
technology that was critical during the COVID pandemic.
(03:16):
We're able to bring you these important stories today thanks
to the support of our sponsor, Carry Movers Limited.
Whether you're moving across town or across the country, you
can trust that the family owned and operated experts who have
been serving Western Canada for over 20 years will have your
move handled in no time. We'll have more on their
(03:38):
services a bit later in the broadcast, but first to our top
local story. Now Metro Vancouver reported
that brings out that the region is at a breaking point.
It's a tale of two crises gripping Metro Vancouver tonight
1 of affordability and one of accessibility.
Now the dream of living here is becoming impossible for many,
(03:59):
and the promise of immediate care in an emergency is becoming
uncertain. These are not abstract problems,
they are impacting the health, finances and future of everyone
here in the Lower Mainland. Now, when we look at the
affordability crisis, a staggering new report from
Chapman University has laid barethe reality of our housing
(04:21):
market, labeling Vancouver impossibly unaffordable.
We are now ranked as the fourth most expensive city in the
entire world, behind only Hong Kong, Sydney and San Jose.
Excuse me, San Jose. The study, which compared median
home prices to medium median incomes, notes that this level
of unaffordability simply did not exist 30 years ago.
(04:45):
Now, the authors point directly to urban containment strategies,
policies that limit urban sprawlin favor of densification as a
key driver of skyrocketing prices.
The result is a market where homes cost 9 to 15 times the
median household income. This isn't just a Vancouver
problem. The report finds that these
(05:06):
effects are rippling through nearly every urban centre in
British Columbia. The consequence is predictable,
and new analysis shows that the housing crisis is now fueling
the largest. He's only a.
Some people from British Columbia in decades.
As a middle income, households are forced to leave in search of
a life where they can actually afford.
(05:28):
Now when it comes to the health care crisis, financial pressures
mount there as well as Sue. So too does the strain on our
essential services. Doctors have BC.
The province's professional association for physicians, is
warning that rolling emergency room closures have been a crisis
point. Dozens of ER have been forced to
(05:49):
temporarily shut down their doors this year, not just in
small rural towns, but right here in the lower mainland.
Just last night, the Delta Hospital emergency room was
closed with little notice after a doctor called and sick, a
situation the mayor called unacceptable.
Dr. Charlene Liu, the president of Doctors of BC, says the
(06:11):
system is beyond strained due tochronic shortages of physicians
and nursing staff. This leaves a frontline workers
facing moral distress, unable toprovide the level of care they
want to, while patients are forced to travel to other
communities for that urgent care.
And while the province has committed billions to
healthcare, the system remains, in the words of one report, in
(06:34):
desperate need of its own lifeline.
If that wasn't enough, the region is bracing for some
unsettled weather with Environment Canada forecast
forecasting the risk of thunderstorms and gusty winds
through tomorrow. Now, navigating the complexities
of a move in Metro Vancouver canbe stressful enough without
(06:55):
worrying about regional issues. That's where Carrie Movers
Limited comes in that they handle local residential, office
and even delicate piano moves right here in Vancouver and the
Fraser Valley. They're experienced crews, bring
professionalism. Mutant count on.

Now let's move on to our national report.
Yes, said trade or at the borderor something that we've been
watching closely. And of course, there is a sense
of urgency rippling out of Ottawa.
(07:42):
The federal government is scrambling to mount a defence
against a growing economic threat from our closest ally and
largest trading partner. Of course, Mark Carney has
chaired a virtual first ministers meeting, bringing
together the country's premiers to coordinate a national
response to a new round of punishing trade tariffs
(08:03):
threatened by Donald Trump and the United States.
Now, this comes as Canada remains one of only two
countries to have imposed retaliatory tariffs against
Washington in the ongoing trade dispute.
Following the meeting, Ontario Premier Doug Ford reiterated his
call for a unified Team Canada approach to the crisis.
(08:24):
The Minister of Finance and Francois Philippe Champagne is
hinting at that Canada may have to change its strategy in the
face of escalating pressure. Now this economic battle is
unfolding as the US signals A dramatic shift in environmental
policy. The new Trump appointed head of
Environmental Protection Agency,Lee Zeldin, has announced plans
(08:46):
to repeal the greenhouse gas endangerment of finding the
scientific and legal foundation for America's fight against
climate change. Scientists on both sides of the
border warned this move may havemajor consequences, effectively
kneecapping efforts to limit emissions from vehicles and
power plants. Now on the domestic front,
(09:08):
there's more economic uncertainty is Air Canada flight
attendants have voted to approvea strike mandate, raising the
possibility of travel disruptions across the country.

anniversaries and escalations. Yes, from a solemn anniversary
in Japan to a major policy shakeup in Washington or
international report tonight is a study in contrast to look back
the lessons of history and to look forward at the geopolitical
(10:14):
and public health battles of tomorrow.
Now in Japan, bells rang out at a sunrise ceremony in Hiroshima
Peace Park to mark 80 years since the United States not the
first atomic bomb on Nagasaki, killing at least.
Oh sorry, on the city. Let me restart that one.
(10:35):
Yes, it's been 80 years since the United States dropped the
first atomic bomb on the city, killing 140,000 people on August
the 6th, 1945. Three days later, a second bomb
on Nagasaki killed a 70,000 more.
The anniversary is a heavy and visceral reminder of the
consequences of war, and it comes at a time of renewed
(10:56):
nuclear threats on the world stage.
Now, as the world reflects on the wars of the past, the White
House is opening new fronts in the conflicts of the present.
Yes, Today Donald Trump signed an executive order imposing an
additional 25 percent tariff on all goods from India, set to
take effect in 21 days, the moveis a direct response to India's
(11:19):
continued importation of Russianoil.
New Delhi has dismissed the threats as unjustified,
escalating a major trade disputebetween the two powers.
Meanwhile, in a move that has stunned the global public health
community, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F
Kennedy Junior has canceled nearly half a billion dollars in
(11:40):
federal funding for future M RNAvaccine development.
This is the same technology thatwas central to the rapid
development of COVID-19 vaccines. 1 mating expert called
it the most dangerous public health decision ever, warning it
leaves the country vulnerable tofuture pandemics.
(12:00):
Well, this is happening. Is the war in Ukraine grinds on?
Yes. The US State Department has just
approved another $104 million military sale to support Ukraine
M777 howitzers while Russian forces reported dances near the
key city of Cubanas. Ask We are looking at that.
(12:25):
And as most of you will be aware, I have spent time in
Ukraine covering the front linesand covering the abandoned
cities as well as the atrocitiesthat have been committed by
Russian soldiers in Ukraine. Yes, it is time that that there
is more international pressure put on Vladimir Putin to end
this illegal war. As the pressure continues, it is
(12:49):
important to understand that although there is a spending by
India in terms of their purchaseof oil reserves and oil and
other energy from Russia, of course, they have a very large
population in country in which they need to assure ensured that
(13:09):
they have the sufficient supplies.

with conflict and climate fueledcatastrophic catastrophes.
It's a reminder of how interconnected we all are and
how important it is to stay informed.

(19:41):
That is the end of our headlines, but let's take a look
at some other things. Let's go into a bit more depth
about the new voice for independent media.
Yes, my wide reaching demand fordifferent programs from
different stations. Now in an era defined by media
(20:03):
fragmentation and audience diversification, broadcasting is
definitely charting a new courseand that includes myself.
That's exemplifying the future of the industry.
Rather than tethering my brand to a single legacy network, I am
pursuing A multipronged strategyas a media entrepreneur,
launching it, launching and Co hosting programs on technology
(20:27):
as well as technologically agileindependent platforms.
And of course, you also may not be aware, but you should be that
if you go to truecrimeandjusticetv.com, that
is a Propex station. And of course, you will find a
various original documentaries on true crime and justice from
(20:49):
around the world, historical andcurrent events.
And once again, I do narrate several of those programs and
produce many of them as well. So check it out at True Crime
and justicetv.com. Now as I continue to work with
these various projects, the new hyperlocal show based out of
(21:11):
Lethbridge, AB is definitely onethat has that's being broadcast
to their established international audience and that
is very exciting. But also not to overlook the
importance and significance of the Sikh diaspora.
In terms of the Perspectives program that I co-host, the
(21:31):
Angus Scott, he is in London in the UK.
So we usually record that show and we do have a goal of going
live on that one eventually. But that show is again, it is on
the 6th station and really looksat the Zika spora, current
(21:52):
events and historical events. But even for non seeks, you
really can learn a lot and get anew perspective from Angus and I
on that show that runs Sundays through Thursdays.
However, we are on a bit of a two week hiatus this week and
next. So we'll just have one show each
(22:12):
week over this week and next on Sandwich.
But again, you can always check out all of our previous shows in
the archives and you can also check out our new Silage TV sub
stack page as well. And of course, Propex has a sub
stack presence as well. So again, just really working
(22:33):
out and jumping on the media circuit.
And again, if you have topic ideas for any of the programs,
you're more than welcome to reach out and let me know.
Now of course Primetime Live is is already running on Jess FM,
but again we are looking at thatas the viewership goes for Prime
(22:57):
Time Live Thursdays at 8:00 PM Mountain Standard Time, we will
increase the frequency to more than just a weekly show if the
demand is there. Again, the Platforms mission is
a hub for diverse group of localmedia producers through the
sharing of ideas and informationon the Jess FM and Jess TV
(23:20):
Network. Of course I am, as most people
know, located in Vancouver, BC so I remote the do the show from
my studios. You're in Vancouver and the
broadcasts, excuse me, on the network there in Lethbridge
alive. If you are interested in the
(23:42):
primetime live show and checkingit out on streaming TV boxes,

And of course, you can watch movies, all kinds of different
things besides just yours truly.Don't forget, of course, that
you can check it out on social media.

So check it out and join us for that program.
(24:50):
Now. Perspectives, of course, we've
talked about that and that's parallel to the other shows that
I do. And that is where I continue my
role as a Canadian Co host of Perspectives on Sage TV in
partnership with Angus Scott in London.
In the UK now we look at the various different historical,
(25:11):
current and future stories impacting India, the Sikh
diaspora in particular, human rights and political
entertainment, all different stories.
So again, it just really brings in to fill a significant void
that mainstream media outlets inCanada, the UK, the US and other
(25:31):
areas maybe do not address as wedo.
Now. Of course, the content is
tailored to be highly relevant to our target audience and
therefore it is something that we hope you will enjoy.
Once again, Sage TV is availableon YouTube and other platforms
(25:53):
as well. Now when it comes to of course
the media ventures, we have to look at the underpinning to
those and that is of course the strategic sponsorship from Kerry
Movers Limited. Once again, we are mentioning
them because they are Western Canada's top family owned and
operated moving company in Vancouver, the Fraser Valley and
(26:16):
of course for long distance moves across Western Canada.
Now this is of course textbook example of symbiotic marketing
within the new media eco stream.And Kerry Movers is a trusted
brand with over 20 years of service in Western Canada and it
aligns itself with the trusted Western Canadian media
personality and it is reaching ahighly targeted and relevant
(26:40):
audience through this various platform coverage through here
and others. So again, the geographic and
demographic alignment is seamless and we're happy to have
Kerry Movers on board. So again, you can reach out to
them at www.karymovers.com. That's Kerry movers.com.
(27:04):
And of course their core value is accountability.
So you can trust that they are areputable and reliable moving
company in Western Canada and they are also a very big
sponsors of various community events such as the Aldergrove
Fair Days, the Food Bank of Surrey, as well as many other
(27:25):
charitable and and other community based organizations.
Now the trajectory here is very important for all other media
professionals as well. It's balancing A hyperlocal
engagement with the global nicheprogramming.
And that is a part of what I'm trying to achieve by working
(27:46):
with all of these different platforms and working with these
different agencies and so forth.So again, we are here on Propex
TV tonight and tomorrow night wewill again have another live
chat with James episode right after we do the prime time live
(28:08):
on gsfm.ca tomorrow night. We're actually talking with
representatives from the Mountain View Film Office in
Alberta. We're going to be talking about
the current status of their reputation that is growing to be
not only an amazing destination for film and television
(28:32):
production, but also how they have created a unique brand and
a unique aspect of their what they refer to as a as a
personalized approach to workingwith film producers and the
production companies from aroundthe world.
Whether it is blockbuster, multimillion or even $100
(28:55):
million production taking place in the region or two smaller
independent, whether it is documentary or just independent
films, they are there to work with you in a concierge sort of
set up format. So again, if you are looking to
film, I would strongly recommendchecking out the Mountain View
(29:17):
Film Office online and really give it some serious
consideration. But check out the show tomorrow
night on Jess FM where we'll getin depth into that region and
what they're offering. But also it will mark the first
in a series of three episodes that we will be talking to
various people from the film andtelevision production industry
(29:40):
throughout Canada and the US to find out where things are at
right now. We know that Warner Brothers
Discovery are both looking at 10% reductions in employees.
We are looking at the reductionsin the number of episodes on
certain series on other networksand other platforms.
And of course, you know, just really pulling back on these
(30:03):
spending. So we'll take a look at that and
that three-part series. See the condition of the
Canadian film and television production industry, the US
industry and what the risks are as well as we can ask and
hopefully answer questions from our viewers as it is alive
format and that we will take into account questions that you

voicemail via traditional telephone or WhatsApp at area
code 368-997-6741. Alright everyone, we appreciate
you tuning in and now we're going to take a look at
(32:40):
something a little different in in-depth.
Now, of course, we know that Donald Trump just over a year
ago suffered what was described at the time does an
assassination attempt. Now the question is, was that
really an attempt on the on the life of Donald Trump during the
(33:01):
campaign or was it just a big scam and hoax that was
perpetrated in order to get his numbers up in the polls and to
get the voters support? This is a very big question that
really should be answered and should be a major priority for
the different law enforcement, for different political
(33:22):
organizations, but also in relation to just the fact that
that answer needs to be addressed and brought forward to
the American people and the world at large.
Now, that day, that faithful time where that assassination
attempt took place really galvanized a lot of people.
(33:43):
And it it also hit home for a lot of people in terms of how
valuable A democracy can be if there is targeting of the leader
or potential leaders of a nation.
It had a big effect on the world.
It really brought forward a foundational question mark about
(34:06):
the safety of the president or, or those running for that
position when it comes to the availability and the access that
the alleged assassin had to get his position in, in relation to
that attempt. Now, let's move on to a couple
of the big questions that of course, a loom over that fateful
(34:29):
day. First of all, there are a lot of
questions about the lack of scarring and lack of any type of
marks on Donald Trump. But when it comes to his alleged
grazing by that bullet, we saw the blood.
It looked very uniform. It looked like it had been
applied by a motion picture or television makeup artist as
opposed to it being real blood from a trajectory of a bullet
(34:55):
wound. You would think that that would
be, you know, unheard of. But at this point, I think
everybody understands that to have a hoax attempted
assassination by Donald Trump would not surprise anybody or by
his by his cronies. Now, we also have to take into
(35:15):
account that since that time, wehave not heard a whole lot of
conversation going on about it. The attempted assassination, the
attempted assassin or that individual's family.
Now, this individual was allegedly taken out at the
location and, and we'll just saytaken out as a polite weight and
(35:35):
also because we don't want to have this banned from social
media platforms. We want you don't get this
question out there and really share it because it is an
essential, essential, real question about the 2024
attempted assassination of Trump.
Now, again, we hear Trump whining about everything from
(35:59):
trying to withdraw the citizenship of Rosie O'Donnell
and, you know, talking about different people, whether it's
the chairman of the Fed Reserve or otherwise.
But at the same time, he doesn'tseem to really have any second
thought about somebody who allegedly tried to assassinate
him. This really makes you wonder if
(36:21):
it was a true assassination attempt or not, or if he does
not bring it up because he wantsthem, the general public and
investigation of that event to move forward, to be forgotten,
to be just a blip in the annals of history.
The question is why? We know that Trump is not one to
(36:41):
move on or know. We know that Trump is not one to
let bygones be bygones, especially something that could
have been the end of him. So why is it that we haven't
heard anything? Why is it that we don't have
information about the individual's family?
Why is it that that there is a suspected cover up here, that
(37:02):
this individual who was the alleged assassin may not even
actually have been eliminated, that he may just have been
relocated and of course identitychanged or many others theories
that potentially could actually be very relevant and be very
true. Again, the whole story is
(37:24):
bizarre. It makes no sense when you look
back at it now for over a year and just so little information
has come out. We at this point know the bra
size of Gillian Maxwell. And of course, that is another,
you know, situation that Trump wants to deflect attention from,
(37:46):
and that is the Epstein files, Gillian Maxwell.
So again, you would think that if he had any information about
an alleged assassin, alleged shooting, about all of this,
that he would be also releasing that information to the public
to create another distraction and to garner more sympathy for
(38:07):
himself. And he has not done that.
So why not? Why is this not being used as a
distraction, as so many other things are?
We know that Trump is just a slimy little douchebag who
really cares only about himself and his very close allies and
friends. But even then, he only cares
(38:28):
about them while he has a use for them, and he'll throw them
to the curb as quick as he can if they go against his thoughts,
his public policy, or of course,anything else that could shed a
negative light on him. So again, the question is, why
is there so little information about this event?
(38:48):
Why has Trump been so quiet on it?
Why has the FBI? Why has the Homeland Security,
everybody's just been hush on this?
And it really makes you wonder why, if they are trying to
deflect from the Epstein files, from the, you know, so many
things going on with Trump and his grifting, as well as the
(39:11):
potential corruption of so many of his appointees, again, it
just really, really strengthens that conspiracy angle to that
event. And that should not be
overlooked. Now, of course, you know, the
security failures. Why have we not heard a lot more
(39:32):
about those stunning, stunning failures?
And you know, the Senate report citing a lack of the chain of
command and poor coordination. I mean, there's so many
different aspects of this that need to come out and be publicly
addressed that just haven't been.
Now, the details are from this as well as reports indicating
(39:56):
that the Secret Service denied request to bolster Trump
security prior to the event. These details will be crucial in
the hypothetical report to suggest that security was
intentionally weakened, leading more or sorry, lending more
weight to the idea of a pre planned hoax.
Again, it is really really just taking on a silence that is
(40:20):
deafening because again, more people need to start demanding
answers to this and and it's notjust Americans.
I think the entire world deserves the truth on this.
It is such a major, major crime.Should someone else allege and
report an attempted assassination file false
(40:42):
criminal charges to actually have that Holt result in the
alleged removal of another person will say from living.
You know, there's just so much now that attempted assassination
of a former or sitting presidentis a seismic event, one that
sent shockwaves through a nation's political and social
(41:04):
landscape. But again, we're not hearing
about it. Now.
The alleged shooting of Trump onJuly the 13th at that campaign
rally, Neil Britton near Butler,PA.
Again, it's no exception. It was a major, major event.
Yet in an era defined by profound political polarization
and deep seated institutional distrust, the immediate
(41:26):
aftermath of the attack was characterized by parallel
phenomenon, the rapid proliferation of misinformation
and the conspiracy theories across social media.
Now this discussion here we wantto address one of the most
persistent of these narratives and that they hit the
hypothetical claim that the assassination attempt was in
(41:50):
fact a staged hoax orchestrated the generate sympathy and
bolster the 2024 presidential campaign.
We know that that's not above Trump or beyond his lack of I
would say, you know, beyond his thought process.
But my goodness, he doesn't seemto have one.
But the analysis, you know, it'll proceed not by dismissing
(42:12):
the premise, but by subjecting its core tenants to a rigorous
evidence based examination against the vast and D failed
detailed public record. So we are going to create a very
in depth report on this coming up in a special an episode
that'll be dedicated strictly tothis.
But again, it's, you know, just the suspicion of an alleged
(42:34):
silence by Donald Trump about the incident, the possibility
that the shooter, Thomas MatthewCruz, is not deceased but has
been hidden away and potentiallywith his family.
And again, that is why there needs to be a demand for a full,
independent and impartial investigation into the matter.
And each of these claims just methodically tested.
(42:57):
The belief in a hoax, of course,is not a fringe anomaly, but a
significant, measurable feature of the post attack landscape.
A You Gov Poll conducted in the week following the shooting
found that only 41% of Americansbelieved it.
Thomas Crooks acted alone. A striking 45% of Republicans
believed others were involved inthe plot.
(43:19):
Another poll found that a third of all Americans agreed with the
statement that the assassinationattempt was part of a broader
plot or conspiracy. This indicates the narrative of
the staged event is not a conclusion built from careful or
sorry. That this indicates that the
(43:40):
narrative of a staged event is not a conclusion built from a
careful review of evidence, but rather an expression of a
preexisting worldview in which amajor political events are
presumed to be manipulated by powerful, unseen forces.
But again, people more and more as more time goes by believe
that this was potentially a big hoax perpetrated by the Trump
(44:03):
campaign and Donald Trump himself to go forward with
creating a sympathetic voter base and to bring in more
support for Trump in that election.
Now, the worldview, of course, is nurtured by political
environment that experts describe as a tinderbox marked
by rising threats of political violence and a collapse of
(44:24):
shared factual reality. You know, we're looking at from
both sides of the coin. But again, I really think that
there's a lot suspect to that event.
Now, the report endeavors to construct a factual counter
narrative built in not on the authority of its sources along
which are often the subject of very distrust that fuels
(44:45):
conspiracy theories, but on the overwhelming weight, internal
consistency and convergence of the available evidence.
Now, by examining Donald Trump'sextensive public statements, the
documented life and death of Thomas Matthew Crooks, and the
findings of numerous bipartisan investigations that have already
occurred, a clear picture emerges.
(45:07):
It's a picture not of a meticulously planned conspiracy,
but of a chaotic and tragic reality, the true nature of
which is arguably more concerning than the fiction of a
hoax. But again, this is the narrative
that's pushed by Trump and the White House and his
administration and supporters. So really, is it, is that the
(45:28):
truth or is that just another fragmented reality that's being
pushed as the official narrativeby Donald Trump and his
supporters? Again, we'll have to look at
that in the big report that we are working on.
Now, Of course, the central pillar of the theory that the
assassination attempt was stagedevent is the premise that Donald
(45:50):
Trump has been conspicuously silent about it.
This perceived silence is interpreted as the behavior of
an individual with something to hide, an unwillingness to face
scrutiny that might unravel A conspiracy.
Now, let's also keep in mind, however, that a comprehensive
review of the public record reveals the opposite.
But I don't believe it because we have seen time and time again
(46:15):
how Trump manipulates facts and tries to bury the truth.
So again, I don't I don't buy that there's not more to the
story than what we already know.And there was just too many
different things that happened. And the lack of addressing the
issue by Donald Trump really, really feeds into my concern
(46:38):
that it was a staged event. And if that alleged attempted
assassin was actually removed from this world as a result of a
staged event, then it's much more than faking an an
assassination attempt. It's much worse than faking a
police reports and internationalreports.
(47:00):
But again, if he was actually removed from the world as a
result of a hoax and conspiracy error, the hoax itself, then of
course, I think that needs to beaddressed in a very, very
serious manner. I do not believe that the Trump
administration or appointees should be anywhere near the
(47:20):
investigation. I think it should be completely
done by an outside agency. And I would even go as far as to
say an international agency to look into it in order to bypass
the potential influence of the US government and the threats
that may come out of the US government against anyone who is
(47:41):
moving forward with a very in depth and impartial
investigation. So I think that needs to take
place. And again, we really hear about
the evidence of this individual's passing.
Mr. Crooks that is at the scene is multi layered and
irrefutable. But again, you know, the mind is
(48:02):
a funny thing. It can be convinced of facts
that weren't actually facts. So we need to really find out
the truth here. We'll also take a look at deeper
profile of Mr. Crooks, who was by all academic measures a high
achiever. He graduated from high school
with honors, earned 1530 on his SAT and received a $500 star
(48:24):
award from the National Math andScience Initiative.
So we'll go into more depth about this individual as well.
But again, I just think that there is a lot more covered up
about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump
and we'll get into that in the next few days in a very in depth
deep dive into that. Once again, folks, you've been
