Speaker 1 (00:10):
Warning, The Root The Root, The Roots on fire. You're
about to experience the most high octane pedal to the
metal controversial show of your life. Please buckle up and
hold on tightly. This station is not responsible for injuries.
This is Wayne Allen Root direct from the entertainment capital
of the world, Las Vegas. What time is it?

Speaker 2 (00:30):
It's time war War.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
Here's your host. One hundred percent raw truth, one hundred
percent American made the Warrior, Wayne Alan Roots.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
All right, Wayne Alan Ruth.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
The Root. The Root is in the South again. I've
been away for almost ten days on a little July
fourth holiday vacation in Park City, Utah, with my wife and.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Four kids in a full house.

Speaker 3 (01:09):
With fireworks and parades and rodeo and bullfighting and.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
The list goes on and on.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
I'm exhausted. I need a vacation for my vacation, and
don't forget on the last day of a vacation, the
entire trip gets ruined because you have to pack for
two hours, and then you have to rush to the airport,
and then you have to return your Renic card. You
have to get guess the red a car when you
return it. Then you have to take all the luggage
out of the rent cars, get it to the airport.
Then all the luggage of the airport has to go

(01:37):
on the plane, and then all the luggage when you
get to the other end of it has to go
back in the car. And then they got to take
it out of the car and bring it to the house,
and then you got up pack it all. I got
up at five this morning and I'm ready to drop.
The whole vacation is ruined by the last day. It's unbelievable.
I'm exhausted. So I wrote a commentary yesterday morning, and

(01:57):
it turns out to be the biggest matery I've ever
written in my entire life, the most traffic, the most responses,
the most comments on Gateway Pundit or at Gateway Pundit,
the most responses to me personally. Nothing I've ever done
or written in my life has gotten a response like this.
It is titled Trump gives us the best first six

(02:19):
months of any president in history and the best week ever.
But Epstein announcement threatens it all. Maga is hanging in
the balance.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Here is what must be done.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
And there's my column at Gateway Pundit. You know a
column there usually gets two hundred, three hundred comments. This
one got three thousand. I don't know. It's probably on
there three thousand, two hundred and fifty or three thousand,
three three thousand, how much thirty two sixty four three thousand,
two hundred and sixty four comments. It was at the

(02:52):
top of the gateway pundit all day, and the amount
of people looking at it is just out of this world,
out of this orbit. So here it is. There are
two things I'm known for. The most fiery and loyal champion,
celebrator and defender of President Donald J. Trump, the greatest
patriot and president of my lifetime.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
And number two, raw truth.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
I tell the like it is no matter who defends
Exhibit A of my telling it like it is no
matter who defends.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
I stuck my neck out and risked.

Speaker 3 (03:21):
My career to play the role of Paul Revere to
warn the nation about the dangerous and deadly COVID vaccine
from the first days, and then I spent the past
four and a half years reporting on credible studies proving
that the COVID vaccine is mass murder and crimes against humanity.
I never let up for one second, even when my

(03:41):
career and my life were threatened. Nothing stops me from
calling it as I see it. So today, once again,
I'm going to play Paul Revere. I need to warn
President Trump about trouble brewing that threatens his presidency, his legacy,
and the future of Baga. Let me start with the
great news, because don't ever be mistaken. I'm always backing

(04:04):
President Donald J. Trump for now till the end of time.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
This has been the best first six months of any
president history.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
President Trump is the best president of my lifetime, beating
Reagan by a mile.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
By the time he's done.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
He stands a great chance of being the goat the
greatest of all time. And Trump just enjoyed the best
week of any president ever. Not just Trump's best week,
the best week of any president. I wrote that and
talked about it on My America's Top ten Countdown show
on Real America's Voice TV just last Saturday. My show

(04:36):
aired on July fifth, Saturday, July fifth. That reference to
the best week ever was based on the Trump victories
of the seven days leading up to the.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
July fourth holiday.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
Trump has knocked a record number of Grand Slam home
runs out of the park. The border is sealed like
never before in history. Trump is getting criminal gangbangers out
of the country while fighting off liberal judges by the hundred.
Trump is cutting the size of government just literally. Yesterday,
he got a big victory at the Supreme Court that
allows him to fire tens of thousands of government employees.

(05:11):
Trump successfully carried out perhaps the most daring military raid
in history on Iran's nuclear sites, thus preventing the worst
terrorist nation in the world from threatening the world with
nukes without getting US into World War three. Bravo. Against
all odds, Trump passed the so called Big Beautiful Bill

(05:31):
by July fourth. No one ever imagined it could be done.
He set that date, and they got it done on
July third, and he signed it on July fourth, thus
preventing a massive tax increase for Americans. In the bargain,
he also passed major new tax cuts for working Americans,
including no tax at over time, no tax on tips,
a new six thousand dollars deduction for seniors, and a

(05:53):
new tax deduction on car payments. But things change quickly
in politics, like in a New York minute. Suddenly, in
a matter of days, everything has changed. I'm going to
today play Paul revere. Big problems are coming. Big problems
are coming. President Trump has a problem, and he needs

(06:13):
to hear about it and deal with it before it
gets out of control. I'm referring to the announcement that
there is no Epstein list. I'm sorry, but no one
is buying it. It looks silly, it looks arrogant, It
looks like a cover up. It looks like President Trump
is protecting evil leaders in Washington, d C. Who are
being blackmailed by the deep state. This is serious. Many

(06:36):
of President Trump's biggest supporters are angry, shocked, and disillusioned
like I've never seen before. I got more mail about
this than I've ever gotten anything in my life. Everyone
mad at Trump, everyone threatening a lead bag, everyone threatening
to let the Republicans lose the midterms. And then I
wrote this. And after I wrote this, I got more
mail than I've ever gotten for any column I've ever

(06:56):
written in my life, and I've never before written a column.
And all the positive every single person said, you're speaking
for us, Thank you WAYNWRT. Once again, your pulse is
with MAGA and the American people. So the people that
watch my shows feel and that's the base of Trump
the base of MAGA. They feel we can never defeat

(07:17):
the deep state unless this list is released. They feel
is a terrible betrayal of President Trump's promise on the
campaign trail to release the Epstein list. They think of
this decision stands Trump's word can no longer be trusted.
Mister President, Please don't shoot the messenger. I'm just telling
you what MAGA nation is saying, feeling, and thinking. You

(07:39):
promise to release the list. Pam Bondi said she was
reviewing the list on her desk. Now suddenly you claim
there is no list. Your own supporters see this as
a typical DC conspiracy cover up and the worst lie
you've ever told. They don't care about the reasons you have.
They want it reversed. Now.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
This problem is grow It's getting worse every day.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
You need to deal with immediately. Your credibility is on
the line. I know after all you've done for this nation,
because I think the same thing. Right. After all you've
done for this nation, after all you've risked and sacrificed
your life, your freedom, after all the impossible battles you've won,
after all you've accomplished to make America great again. You

(08:23):
can't understand how this one issue threatens all of that,
but it does. Like it or not understand the anger
or not, your brand and legacy are on the line
over this one issue. This is how your supporters feel.
I didn't say it's how I feel, but this is
definitely how your MAGA supporters feel, which is the base
of all your voters.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
I've read the letters.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
MAGA is falling apart over this one issue, and you
have to deal with it fast. Now, why do I
personally think Trump made this decision to claim there is
no Epstein list A I'm guessing half of Congress was
on Epstein's list, or certainly a lot of prominent congressional
leaders from both sides of the aisle. I think Trump

(09:06):
may have made the decision or the deal, the art
of the deal, to stop the release of the Epstein
list in return for them voting yes of the Big Beautiful,
Big Beautiful Bill BBB, thereby preventing a massive tax increase
on virtually every American that could have led to an
economic recession or an economic collapse and or and it

(09:29):
could be both of these. Trump made a moral decision
that so many political leaders, business leaders, and influential people
who run this country are on this list. That releasing
it would bring down much more than the deep State.
It would bring down our entire nation and our entire
US economy, leading to a collapse at a great depression.

(09:49):
That was the dilemma that my gut says Trump faced
and the reason why he made the decision. No matter,
there is no choice now, this higher future of MAGA
is on the line. Give a speech to the nation,
explain why what happened happened, and then announce you're reversing
your decision. The Epstein List must be released. We need

(10:14):
to hear the names, end their careers, end the blackmail,
destroy the deep state.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Cleanse the soul of the nation, let the chips fall
where they may.

Speaker 3 (10:27):
MAGA and the American people will not only forgive you
when they hear the dilemma you faced, they will love
and support you even more because they'll understand you are
the only man in history with the cahonis, the balls,
and the integrity to reverse a decision like this and
to release the Epstein list. Come clean, tell us why

(10:49):
you did it, and release the list. And that got
the most traffic I would guess in the history of
Gateway Pundit of any article, and it got the most
traffic in the history of my career, and it got
the most responses to me personally, and the most comments
at the Gateway Pundit maybe ever, certainly this year, and every.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
Single person was positive. What was uptur in twenty four hours?

Speaker 3 (11:13):
Right?

Speaker 2 (11:14):
All of that happened twenty four hours while I was
on vacation.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
I wrote it, got up early on Wednesday morning and
wrote it because I just felt so strongly after getting
all these letters on Monday and Tuesday from Maga fans
and Wayne Root fans saying I'm done with President Trump.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
I washed my hands. The guy lied to us.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
He's lying out, They're lying about Epstein, They're lying about everything.
If you can't trust him on this, you can't trust
them on anything. I personally disagree. I love Trump. He's
doing a great job on the border. He's doing a
great job on Texas. He did a great job of DEI.
He's getting the people, bad guys out of the country.
I love the guy, but MAGA is mad and I
represent MAGA. Anda. Hi, this is Wayne aler Rude from

Speaker 2 (15:07):
All right, just wain Alrett. So look, everybody knows, my
wife knows.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
My friends in Park City New My friends in Las
Vegas know everyone knows there's an Epstein list. Why would
you choose to lie to us? Remember President Trump did lie.
Pambondy lied. I think she should take the sword. I
think Pam Bondi should resign right now. And I'm gonna
write that commentary. I don't know I have time tonight
or tomorrow, but Pam Bondy's got to go. Everybody knows

(15:32):
there's an Epstein list, and so what comes out today
after I write that commentary? And I tell you everyone knows.
Alan Jershwitz's bombshell, I've seen the Epstein list and I
know the names. Evidently he was the lawyer who defended Epstein,
and Jershwitz says in defending Epstein, I've seen the list
and I've seen the names. I know every name, but

(15:55):
I'm bound to confidentiality. Is the attorney, I can't talk
about it.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
But of course there's a list.

Speaker 3 (16:00):
I've seen it, I know the names. And then Bill
O'Reilly comes out on TV and says President Trump told
him the reason why the Epstein files will not be released.
And his claim is I talked to the president man
to man, eye to eye on Saint Patrick's Day about this,
and he said there were a lot of names associated
with Epstein that had nothing to do with Epstein's conduct,

(16:24):
and O'Reilly added that they maybe had lunch with Epstein,
or maybe had some correspondence or some other thing. These
people are destroyed, Trump said, because they're not going to
be any context.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
The media doesn't care about context. You can't do that.

Speaker 3 (16:39):
You can't destroy human being by putting out the files
whatever they may be concluded. O'Reilly. So what he's trying
to say, and what evidently he claims Trump said, is
that there's a list and maybe half the people on
the list are pedophiles who screwed little girls. Ooh, what
a horrible thing.

Speaker 2 (16:57):
They should all be killed, should all get the death bell.

Speaker 3 (17:00):
And the other half maybe just had lunch and talked
about a real estate deal with Epstein and had nothing
to do with having sex with little girls. And if
he releases that list, they'll all be smeared and they'll
all be destroyed forevermore. No one knows the difference.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
I gotta tell you all you got to do.

Speaker 3 (17:17):
If that's true. Number one, I don't know if I
even agree, because that's still a crappy excuse if you
ask me, because that means half the names on the
list are the most powerful people in business and politics
and sports and entertainment, and they run this country. And
they all need to be tarred and feathered. They all
need to get a pipe to the knee. They all

(17:38):
need to be hung in the town square. They all
need to be to face a day in court and
then their life in prison for being pedophiles. And you're
letting them go because you claim half have nothing to
do with it. By the way, how do you know
half have nothing to do with it? How do you
know what percentage have nothing to do with it? If
you know that, release the half who have something to
do with it. How about that as a compromise. But

(18:00):
if that's your final decision, President Trump, I can live
with that, because I'm not telling you what Maga thinks.
I'm gonna tell you what you think. I'm gonna tell
you what I think. I think he's done such a
great job with DEI and with men and women's sports,
and with the economy, and with taxes and with jobs.
All the jobs are for Americans now, not foreigners. He's
done such a good job with the bombing of Iran.

(18:22):
He's done such a good job with the big, beautiful
bill and no tax in overtime and no tax on
tips and everything else.

Speaker 2 (18:29):
The guy deserves all the credit of the world.

Speaker 3 (18:30):
If that's his decision and he doesn't want to release
the list, you probably disagree completely. I'm gonna say I
can live with it because you doing everything else that's
great for me and great for America. But he doesn't
have to lie or let Pam Bondy lie. Then he
needs to say there is a list. I don't know
why Pambondi claimed there wasn't a list. I fired her today.

(18:52):
There is a list and I am not releasing it
for the reason I told Bill O'Reilly, because people are
gonna get hurt.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
And Erick could decide if they like that answer or not.

Speaker 3 (19:02):
I believe they won't. I believe Maggie will hate that answer.
I believe the Democrats will all say Trump's on the list,
and that's why you wouldn't release it, and he's lying again.
I think the only win here for President Trump, the
only possible win is to release the list. Now. It's
the only win. And here's another massive Epstein bombshell. They

(19:23):
also claimed all of Trump's big shots at the FBI
and Pam Bondy at the DOJ.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
That Epstein committed suicide.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
For sure, he was not murdered, and the media narrative
got destroyed. Today, Epstein's body confirmed in his room on
the upper level l tier where they found him, not
in the lower level floor showed in the video.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
They showed you the wrong video.

Speaker 3 (19:46):
The guy was clearly murdered. You'd be a morons, and
I believe he's murdered. And his own brother breaks his
silence and says up. Every time they say something or
try to do something to quash the idea that he likely.

Speaker 2 (19:59):
Was murdered, they put their foot further in their mouth.
Of course he was murdered.

Speaker 3 (20:04):
And of course there's a list, and there's a thousand
victims on that list. What the hell's Pambondi talking about.
She should be fired, she should reside and walk the plank,
or fire Jim's Amazing Bread to sponsor the show. Personal
story that changed my life. I'm alleged to wheat grains gluten.
I couldn't eat bread, to eat bread since twenty fourteen,
eleven years. Now I eat bread almost every single day.

you on the show so many times.

Speaker 2 (22:02):
I love gold.

Speaker 3 (22:03):
I love gold. I'm a gold bug, as they say.
And the only thing I love now equal to or
maybe more than gold, is crypto. I'm trying to look
up where crypto closed today. Here we go. Crypto close
at one hundred and thirteen oh one hundred and thirteen thousand,
and in the aftermarket it's one hundred and fifteen thousand,
eight hundred and eighty two. It's headed for one hundred

(22:23):
and twenty thousand dollars. A crypto. A bitcoin is a coin, right,
I guess you call it a coin. I don't know
whatever the hell you call it. I own a lot
of it I should know, But whatever you call it,
it's a bitcoin. So it's going up through the roof,
and I keep telling everyone to buy bitcoin. I hope
you listen, because now you don't have to buy it.
You just buy it through like e trade or Charles Schwab,

(22:45):
a bitcoin ETF exchange traded fund on Wall Street. You
buy and sell it in a minute. You don't need
to wait for crypto anymore. You don't need to wait
for bitcoin anymore. It's truly amazing what's happening with bitcoin.
All right, we got a great guest. These are segment Salmasima.
I want to mention first the sponsor of this segment,
because of course they make it all possible. This segment

(23:07):
of the show sponsored by Energized Health. I joined. Wait
a minute, is that the I don't think that's I
took it. Oh, there it is, okay, got it, got it,
got it okay. Because Energized Hell's doing something special, so
it's not the usual livery and it's something special going on.
On Monday, July twenty first, I lost twenty five pounds

(23:28):
of fat and gained ten pounds of muscle in only
eighty eight days to start the program back in twenty twenty,
that was almost five years ago. My life's never been
the same. I gained energy and intercellular hydration. I got
in the best shape of my life, and I gained
three new TV shows past the age of sixty one.
I don't think that's ever happened in TV history, and

(23:48):
I know why it happened. The fat melted off my face.
I'm almost sixty four years old. I'll be sixty four
in July twentieth, so I'm about ten days away from
my birthday. And I look younger now than I did
at age fifty. There's me at age fifty with Steve
and me today fourteen years later. That's me in the
gym today. For decades, energized health has transformed the lives
of thousands of people using the breakthrough science of intercellular hydration.

(24:12):
Now here's your chance to be like Wayne. Energized health
can change your life and supercharge your health, just like
it did for me. And you don't have to guess
anymore because now you have a trial run a five
day challenge, special opportunity to share with you a five
day challenge lose five pounds in five days for only

of fat during those five days or you get your
five dollars back. It's coming up Monday July twenty first.
So rester now at myfive five to five challenge dot com.

All right, so now it's time for my guest, Salmon Seema,

(25:02):
an Iranian freedom activist who is tortured by the Iranian regime.
Salmon Seema, Welcome to the Wayne Alaru Show. How are you?

Speaker 4 (25:13):
I'm good? Thank you for having me.

Speaker 3 (25:14):
Yes, and I can hear you loud clear, good. Tell
us your story. I understand you were tortured by the
Iranian regime. Why and what exactly they do to you?

Speaker 4 (25:28):
So first of all, let me correct you. There is
nothing Iranian about this regime.

Speaker 5 (25:34):
They are brutal, bastard to not see apartheid, Islamist regime,
nothing Iranian.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (25:43):
When they create IRGC, they call it Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp.
They call Harmony Supreme leader of the Islamic regime. Even
they don't say it Iran or Iranian. You are of Cyrus,
a great were the nation of human rights. These are

(26:04):
something Iran yet and yes, I was a student activist.
I was active in my university. Then we were planning
for some peaceful student protests in two thousand and eight,
I think, and they arrested my good friend, my close friend.

(26:27):
So then we said that okay, we should do something.
If they arrest one of us, we should stand for
each person. So I was organizing a protest for saving
my friend, my best friend at that time life. And
before I organized that protest, they arrested me as well.

(26:50):
Then they put me in solitary confinement for first time
in two thousand and eight for thirty four days.

Speaker 4 (26:56):
Then they read the election in two thousand and.

Speaker 5 (26:59):
Nine as stale, I got released by the bail and
I organized another mass.

Speaker 4 (27:06):
Protests in several universities.

Speaker 5 (27:08):
They banned me from my education. I couldn't go even
go to the yard of the university.

Speaker 4 (27:13):
I couldn't go to class. I was banned temporary.

Speaker 5 (27:16):
So then they arrested me in two thousand and nine
for the second time, ninety nine days solitary confinement.

Speaker 4 (27:25):
I was in a cell.

Speaker 5 (27:26):
Imagine that ev in prison. So it's a small window
of the cell and they don't open the door.

Speaker 4 (27:34):
Just three times per day.

Speaker 5 (27:37):
You can call it breakfast, a little small border breakfast,
launch and dinner.

Speaker 4 (27:45):
So then you were in the solitary confinement with the walls.

Speaker 5 (27:51):
And the third time I was arressed by IRGC and
I was torture.

Speaker 4 (27:59):
I was beaten up. They broke twelve my ribs, they
broke one of.

Speaker 5 (28:04):
My tips, one of my teas, and they scrabbed my
lips and several minors in Jenny as well. So I
went on a hunger strike and at that time Human
Rights Watch, I'm International, my great family. They did an
amazing media campaign for me, and Reggie was forced to

(28:25):
release me on the bail because.

Speaker 4 (28:27):
I was on dry hunger strike.

Speaker 5 (28:29):
You know, then you're on dry hunger struke, no water,
no food. Then I find a smuggler. Then I escaped
the country. I went to Turkey, and it was a
really hard decision. I remember when I leave my country,
I just look at the back front the mountain. That

(28:49):
what time when I can see this great country again.
And I remember that I was crying when I leave
my country, my family, all of my relatives, all of
my best friends, all of my everything, you know, everything.
But I choose freedom. It was really a hard decision,

(29:09):
but it was a right decision.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
And uh we said to Slomon, where are you today?

Speaker 3 (29:17):
Are you still in Turkey. Is that where you are
right now?

Speaker 4 (29:21):
I am in Canada.

Speaker 5 (29:22):
I am in Canada, in Toronto. Still, we are fighting
for freedom. We don't want Canada became a commonist country.
We are dealing with I think you're too late and
pre order marker and just intrudeo.

Speaker 4 (29:36):
You can guess that I'm not fan of mark On.
You're just in trudea. Just it's obvious. So we were
saying to some point, do.

Speaker 3 (29:47):
You know my buddy? Do you know my buddy Nikki Blue?
Are you friends with Nikki Blue? Yes?

Speaker 4 (29:52):
Yes, I had the honor to interview with Nikki just
last week.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (29:58):
So I found a smuggler and the smuggler helped me
to escape the country from the torkiep order. Then we
came to Tourki with the meules from the river and
jokingly with political prisoner. We call this a smuggler, real
human right activists because he saved lots of life. And

(30:21):
I came to Canada in twoenty eleven as a as
a legal not illegal, as a legal refugee through UNSCR.
Through UNSCR program, they interviewed me two times by the
u N and one time by Canadian Embassy in Ankar
at the capital of Tork.

Speaker 3 (30:43):
All right, so tell us. And by the way, not
everything's so great in the United States either. You understand
where we might be. They call us maybe the freest
country in the world. But the January sixth Trump supporters
were treated as bad as you were in solitary, Horrible meals,
maggots in their.

Speaker 2 (30:59):
Food, mold exposed on the walls. They breathed in the mold.

Speaker 3 (31:04):
Some of them are sick, some of them are dying
of cancer. They didn't receive treatment. They were held without trial,
my friend Jake Lang for four years. This all happened
in the United States, and I know in Canada, where
you are now, all the truckers were treated so horribly
when they did that nationwide trucker boycott basically, you know,

(31:25):
to block Ottawa to make U Yeah, I thought it
was great, but they took away their badcounts, they took
away their dogs. These are horrible people in Canada. Horrible,
the leaders of Canada, the way they treated those nice people. So,
I mean, both the United States and Canada are acting
like Iran at this point. That's the same part. But

(31:46):
all right, so let me ask you a question.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
Your reaction.

Speaker 4 (31:49):
Let's say something. Okay, let's say something. I was probably
a student to Freedom and Convoy three VICS.

Speaker 5 (31:56):
I was in Ottawa, shoulder to shoulder with the captain
behold the line, and it was so great, full of love,
full of freedom, and no one got covid even cold
at that cold.

Speaker 4 (32:09):
I'm just saying that, what uh just in Florida's talk
they did with the Freedom Convoy. It was blue tall.

Speaker 5 (32:18):
It must be condemned. But honestly, I'm not gonna defend Justintorida.
I'm not fan of just Intorida or fan of Joe Biden. So,
but it's not comparable with this.

Speaker 3 (32:32):
Iran or Nazis. He's just seen punishing people and Nazis.
These guys are murdering Nazis in Iran, and I get
shoot the bullets, you know, yeah, they should the bullets.

Speaker 4 (32:42):
They should the bullet.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
Some of We're going to an air brake.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
Stay there, stay there. I'll grab you on the other side.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
I have a whole lot of questions.

Speaker 3 (32:49):
I still want to ask you to now go anywhere.
Salmon Seema Iranian freedom activists tortured by the Iranian regime
to give us some nuggets of wisdom, What Iran is
really like, what the Iranian people are really like? I
gotta askh when we get back by Tucker Carlson, who
actually interviewed the president of Iran. I thought that was
a terrible decision and a bad mistake to make. It's

(33:10):
like interviewing Hitler and giving him a platform to spew
his lies. And I'm very angry at Tucker for doing that.
But it is freedom. I get it. I get it.
Salomon Sima will be right back. Iranian freedom activists will
be right back. Wayne al Route right.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
Here on the Root Reaction, be right back, all right.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
A special treat for you. I want to introduce you
to a real hero of the American energy industry, a legend,
Mark Brunner, founder and CEO of Lost Soldier Oil and
Gas in the United States. Lost Soldier is the last
major BCGA basin centered gas accumulation. This is code for
a monster field where gas or oil is in a basin,

(33:56):
which makes the drilling and production much easier. Mark, if
you're allegend in the oil industry, in the gas industry,
tell us about your track record.

Speaker 6 (34:05):
Well, I'm a second generation oil and gas guy. My
father in the early nineteen fifties, started a company called
tech Star. It later became Texas Oil and Gas. When
it sold out to US Steel, it was the largest
independent in the world. Dell High Pipelines was the largest
gas distribution system in the United States when it sold
out to a US Steal. I worked with him for

(34:26):
four years. I've been in the oil and gas ever since.
You would probably know me better as this chairman of
Ultra Petroleum, and Ultra had a pretty good track record,
which you're very familiar with.

Speaker 3 (34:38):
I think, well, I think ten thousand dollars investor in
Ultra turned it into thirteen million dollars. Is that correct
in the nine year run of your publicly traded company.

Speaker 4 (34:48):
Yeah, at the high that's true.

Speaker 3 (34:50):
Ten thousand dollars turned into thirteen million. That means one
hundred thousand dollars turned into one hundred and thirty million.
That's an incredible track record. Now tell me why this
deal lost, Soldier. This project is so special. I hear
about projects and deals all the time. What makes this
one special? Mark?

Speaker 6 (35:07):
What's special about this is all the other basins of
the United States have been drilled. We've known for fifty
years what they are this one could not be drilled
because there was a uranium mine out here. Until it
was reclimated three years ago, no one could drill it.
This is surrounded by large oil and gas fields with
billions of dollars of infrastructure that at this point eighty

(35:28):
five percent empty. So we made this discovery. We are
the only operator in this field, and right now we
can see that we've got enough room for five hundred
horizontal wells out here with what we drilled so far.

Speaker 4 (35:41):
Very exciting.

Speaker 6 (35:42):
It's the new basin in the United States, and as
far as I'm concerned, this is an order of magnitude
bigger than Ultra Petroleum, the one that I did.

Speaker 3 (35:52):
All right.

Speaker 2 (35:52):
The website is Lost Soldier dot com. Pretty simple stuff.

Speaker 3 (35:56):
Lost Soldier dot Com. The project forty thousand eight took
forty years to piece together. It's called Lost Soldier Oil
and Gas LLC. That's the company that's the project. But
the website Lost Soldier dot com. If you're an a
credit investor, Mark wants to hear from you. If you
want to hear more information, check it out. Fill out
the form and you get to Lost Soldier. Mark and

(36:17):
his people will get back to you as CFO and
let you know all the details you need to know.
Lost Soldier dot Com. Thanks Mark for being with us today.

Speaker 1 (36:26):
Thank you Wayne.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
Good to see you again.

Speaker 3 (36:46):
All right, I've been telling you again and again. Bitcoin, Bitcoin,
Bitcoin again. I'm not a financial advisor. I tell you
what I love, what I'm buying because they're not making anymore.
It's almost done with all bitcoin for the rest of history.
And everybody wants it. The entire Wall Street wants it.
Today it closed one hundred and thirteen thousand for the
first time ever. Knew all time hide in the aftermarket
right now, it's one hundred and sixteen thousand per bitcoin,

(37:10):
one hundred and sixteen per bitcoin, just one hundred and
sixteen thousand dollars. I remember what it was like, five
hundred dollars. Truly amazing, new all time highs hurtling into
the future. Another good thing, gold and bitcoin. I'm telling you,
I've kind of built my account around it. Lost Soldier
Oil and Gas. That's another thing that I love. Lost

(37:32):
Soldier Oil and Gas. Second term of Trump all about drill,
baby drill, and making America the energy capital of the world.

Speaker 2 (37:39):
In this one project could be the centerpiece.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
Of that goal. Lost Soldier Oil and Gas has been
founded by second generation oil and gas legend Mark Brunner.
His companies have created more than fifteen billion in shareholder value,
including Ultra Petroleum, a public company which became one of
the biggest hits in the.

Speaker 2 (37:56):
History of Wall Street. It went from fifteen cents.

Speaker 3 (37:58):
To two hundred dollars and shared its peak. A ten
thousand dollars investment grew into thirteen million. Have you ever
invested ten thousand and grew into thirteen million? I never
heard of anything like that before.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
Lost Soldiers marked newest project.

Speaker 3 (38:10):
It took forty years to piece together his forty thousand
acre giant Gas Discovery field. It could be the last
of its kind in the history of America. Lost Soldiers
Giant Gas Discovery could become as renowned as the Permian Basin.
This is the right time, right place, right management team.

Lost Soldier dot com All right, Speaking of getting back,
we're getting back to Salmon Seema, Iranian freedom activist who
is tortured by the Iranian regime.

Speaker 2 (38:47):
Solomon, welcome back to the show.

Speaker 3 (38:53):
There is here. So your reaction to President Trump making
this daring move to stop negotiating because Iran was jerking
them around, and to bomb the three nuclear sites and
get out of there, and not invade with troops, which
I always say is a mistake, and not kill Iranian civilians,

(39:13):
and not nation build.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
All and not occupy.

Speaker 3 (39:18):
All he did was bomb and leave and bomb the
three nuclear sites, because that's all we want to do
is stop them. Stop a terrorist nation, a rogue terrorist
nation getting nukes. Your response to that daring move.

Speaker 5 (39:33):
So, as an Iranian patriot, it's really sad to see
that another country attack to your country.

Speaker 4 (39:40):
I just want to share my mixed feeling.

Speaker 5 (39:44):
Okay, but one thing, the only thing is worse than
than attacking to your country, attacking to elon is Islamic regime,
big nuclear bomb. That's right, fine, Okay, So the fact
that the Islamic regime cannot enrich uranium is a good things.

Speaker 4 (40:08):
And the fact that it was a targeted attack. It
was a good thing.

Speaker 5 (40:14):
But at the beginning, Messer Witskoff, the Sir President, you're
going to negotiating with the people that they have Iranian
blood on their hands, Canadian blood on their hands, American
blow on their hands.

Speaker 7 (40:31):
They are the number one sponsored terrorists, the terrorism on
the world. Okay, when you're going to negotiating with this
regime from the first day, you know, but I'm happy
that Islamic regime cannot reach to nuclear bomb yet.

Speaker 4 (40:49):
But honestly, the job is not done. The job needs
to be finished. If you think that by sitting in
us not.

Speaker 5 (40:57):
Sending yours, I am not defending sending the soul. Just
don't put I'm talking to your audience. Please do not
put word on my mouth. Okay, if you think that
you sit in your backyard and having your cockt your
beer and the molas the Iya told us the Islamic
regime doesn't intervene your private life, you're dead later wrong.

Speaker 4 (41:20):
Look at what is going on in Canada, look at
what happened in the UK, and look at what's going
on in.

Speaker 3 (41:25):
New York soon. Yeah, you know, college campuses around the
United States, like, what's going on? Is regime change necessary?
In Iran, and how do we make it happen?

Speaker 5 (41:36):
So the regime change is must. It's a moral things
that everyone should pay attention to that. But it's the
duty of Irania. The things that happened after this twelve
days war between Israel and Islamic regime in Iran, between
US and Islamic regime in Iran, they went after regimes

(42:00):
missile capability given after a nuclear side, so they reduced
the international external abversion of the regime.

Speaker 4 (42:12):
What about insight.

Speaker 5 (42:13):
You know that you teams that the Iranian people alone
can go on the defeat the regime.

Speaker 4 (42:19):
Yes, if Israel, if I get.

Speaker 5 (42:22):
If US weakening the regime, you know that you want
to go for example of health, the Iranian people, should
some design to besiege to brown shirts off the Aatol,
Should some deside to hominy?

Speaker 3 (42:36):
Tom? You know, well they did. They killed the genitives,
they killed the leading generals. They did a great job,
killing a lot of leadership. It was not enough, all right, welles,
well see what we gotta run something?

Speaker 4 (42:47):
Talking about the big we are again with a very
big opera system. They're really operasive.

Speaker 3 (42:54):
Five ten twenty.

Speaker 4 (42:55):
In general, it is not enough. It's good, but it's
not enough.

Speaker 2 (42:58):
All right, Let's hope there's more.

Speaker 3 (42:59):
Salmon's Iranian freedom activists tortured by the Iranian regime now
safely in Canada, the People's Republic of Canada, the new
communist nation. We wish you luck, my friend, God bless you. Hi.

The Burden

The Burden

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
