Podcasts about Benghazi

In this episode, Burning Bright and Chris Paul dissect Michael Bay's 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi, blending film critique with a deeper exploration of the narratives surrounding the 2012 attack. They examine how the movie subtly undermines the official story, portraying the CIA not as saviors but as the true antagonists, hoarding information, obstructing help, and prioritizing their own cover-up over American lives. The discussion explores whether Ambassador Chris Stevens' death was a tragic accident or a deliberate assassination to bury evidence of weapons transfers and clandestine deals. They break down inconsistencies in the narrative, like the tidy explanation for Stevens' cause of death, the dubious claims of resource shortages, and the suspiciously well-prepared mortars that struck the annex. Through thoughtful analysis, they argue that incompetence is often a convenient cover for malice, and they challenge listeners to follow the trail of contradictions to see where it leads. With references to Hillary Clinton's infamous “What difference at this point does it make?” remark and the CIA's “heroism” awards, this episode pushes past surface-level hero worship to question whether the real story was hidden in plain sight.

In this explosive continuation, Zak “RedPill78” Paine and special guest Nick Noe pick up where they left off, diving into tangled webs of corruption, espionage, and cover-ups at the highest levels of government. Nick recounts how his viral Quora post exposing the Clinton Foundation and deep-state players like Mueller, Comey, and Rosenstein sparked a firestorm that platforms rushed to censor. The episode unpacks how the Clinton email scandal, Uranium One, and covert money-laundering operations in Turkey and Ghana intersected with hidden intelligence networks. Nick shares firsthand details about sting operations involving counterfeit cash, the manipulation of evidence by Robert Mueller, and high-stakes deals linked to figures such as David Kendall and Jim Woolsey. The conversation then pivots to the Epstein case, with the hosts questioning whether Epstein's death and the disappearing evidence were part of an orchestrated clean-up, and what it means for those still expecting accountability. With unreleased recordings, insider documents, and years of research, this episode challenges the official narratives about everything from 9/11 to child trafficking, offering a raw and relentless examination of the corruption that many still refuse to see.

A Voice for Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens is much more than a memoir; it is a humanizing tribute to Chris Stevens the man, by the woman who loved him. Lydie M. Denier, former fiancée and the love of Chris Stevens' life, paints an intimate portrait of the brilliant and mercurial diplomat, teacher and Arabist that was Chris Stevens.Murdered in Benghazi on September 11, 2012, along with Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, Chris' voice has been silenced, his personality buried beneath an avalanche of sordid headlines, political agendas and lies. In her book, Ms. Denier gives Chris a voice, finally setting the record straight about their passionate and turbulent love affair, his commitment to the people of the Middle East, and her dedicated quest to uncover the truth about what really happened the day Chris Stevens was killed and more importantly, why he was not protected. From Hollywood to Cairo, Washington D.C. to Libya, Ms. Denier shares the joy and pain of love, loss, tragedy and healing.https://amzn.to/4kn4fliBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

« La Turquie n'est pas en rivalité avec la France en Afrique », affirme le responsable de la diplomatie turque pour l'Afrique. Depuis vingt-cinq ans, la Turquie est en pleine expansion sur le continent africain. On le voit avec ses opérateurs économiques et avec le succès de ses drones sur les champs de bataille. Mais loin de vouloir prendre sa place, la Turquie veut renforcer sa coopération avec la France. C'est ce qu'affirme Volkan Isiksi, directeur général pour l'Afrique au ministère turc des Affaires étrangères. De passage à Paris, il répond aux questions de Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Volkan Isikci, bonjour, Volkan Isikci : bonjour RFI : En 2007, la France de Nicolas Sarkozy et l'Allemagne d'Angela Merkel ont dit non à l'entrée de la Turquie dans l'Union européenne. Est-ce que c'est l'une des raisons pour lesquelles votre pays s'est tourné vers le continent africain avec une politique ambitieuse ? En fait, notre politique ambitieuse vers les autres continents, notamment l'Afrique, ça remonte bien avant 2007, donc en 1998. A partir de 2003, les relations de la Turquie avec l'Union africaine, ça s'est développé et on a essayé d'être présent sur le continent africain avec l'ouverture des ambassades. En l'an 2002, on avait douze ambassades. Aujourd'hui, on en a 44 et notre vision est de pouvoir augmenter le nombre de ces ambassades et de pouvoir les augmenter jusqu'à 50 dans les prochaines années, avec les possibilités que l'on va avoir. Tout de même, Monsieur le Directeur général, on remarque que, en 2007 donc, il y a ce refus de la France et de l'Allemagne de faire entrer la Turquie dans l'Union européenne. Et un an plus tard, en 2008, il y a ce premier sommet Turquie-Afrique. Est-ce qu'il n'y a pas un lien de cause à effet ? Non, c'est une coïncidence. Le choix de 2008, c'est indépendamment de la décision que vous avez mentionnée. C'était une feuille de route que l'on avait déjà établie. Donc, en 2008, on a organisé le premier sommet Turquie-Afrique, c'était en Turquie. En 2014, le deuxième, c'était en Guinée équatoriale. En 2021, on a organisé le troisième en Turquie et le quatrième, on va l'organiser l'année prochaine en Libye. Le choix a été ratifié par les organismes concernés de l'Union africaine. Et par les autorités libyennes de Tripoli, puisque ce sera à Tripoli ? Exactement. Depuis 20 ans, Monsieur le Directeur général, le volume d'échanges de votre pays avec l'Afrique a fait un bond très important. Il est passé de 5 milliards à 40 milliards de dollars par an. Qu'est-ce que vous apportez de différent par rapport à l'Europe et la Chine ? Avec nos amis africains, la période de Covid a eu des effets positifs pour que ce volume d'échanges augmente. Comme vous savez, à ce moment-là, il y avait des restrictions du point de vue des visas, du point de vue des vols. Nous, on n'a jamais essayé de rendre la vie difficile à nos amis africains qui voulaient visiter la Turquie. Notre régime de visas était flexible. En plus, les vols de Turkish Airlines n'ont jamais cessé à cette période-là. Nos amis africains, au lieu des destinations classiques qu'ils avaient pour voyager, faire du commerce en Europe ou bien en Asie, ils ont découvert un peu la Turquie. Et dans plusieurs pays africains, ils mentionnent que la continuité, la qualité, le prix et le suivi des produits turcs qu'ils se procurent en Turquie sont nettement plus concurrents que ceux des autres régions du monde. Ils nous disent : « Vous avez des produits de qualité européenne au prix de produits chinois. Alors en effet, certains disent en Afrique que les produits turcs sont moins chers que les produits européens et de meilleure qualité que les produits chinois. Quels produits par exemple ? De tout. Des dentifrices aux tissus, aux chaussures, aux meubles. Surtout dans le secteur de la construction. La plupart du matériel est importé de la Turquie. Évidemment, au lieu d'importer de très loin comme la Chine, le matériel qui est commandé de la Turquie, il parvient à peu près dans un délai d'un mois, un mois et demi, dans le pays concerné. Quand il faut construire un centre de conférence très vite pour un sommet de dans six mois, les Turcs sont là. C'est ça ? Voilà. Donc je ne vais pas citer le pays, mais dans un pays africain, le leader qui avait demandé à une compagnie turque de pouvoir organiser une grande conférence internationale avec la participation des chefs d'Etats, il lui a demandé s'il pouvait construire un centre de conférence en six mois. La compagnie concernée, qui est très active en Afrique, lui a fait la proposition de pouvoir le faire avec un délai de six mois. Evidemment, le prix était très abordable pour ça. La compagnie lui a demandé quelques faveurs : pouvoir amener 4000 ouvriers de Turquie avec six navires et tout le matériel qui serait nécessaire. Donc la commande a été passée au mois de janvier et les portes de cette conférence ont été ouvertes pour accueillir les chefs d'Etat mi-juin. Et donc c'est un succès qui a été réalisé en six mois. Et cet exemple que vous donnez sur six mois, je crois que c'est arrivé dans un pays d'Afrique centrale ? Oui, en Afrique centrale. L'un de vos produits phares en Afrique, Volkan Isikci, c'est le drone de la société Bayraktar. Il a fait ses preuves à Tripoli en 2019, puis dans la guerre Éthiopie -Tigré en 2021. Et du coup, beaucoup de pays africains vous achètent ce produit, comme le Mali, le Tchad. Est-ce que certains pays africains n'ont pas renoncé à la protection des avions de chasse classiques au bénéfice de ces drones, parce que c'est moins cher et parce qu'il y a moins d'abandon de souveraineté ? Je pense qu'il faut voir cette approche dans un contexte technologique et de maniabilité parce que, pour l'utilisation des avions de chasse, il faut déjà des terrains, des pistes d'atterrissage qui sont adéquats. Et ces drones ou ces nouveaux engins depuis quelque temps sont beaucoup plus abordables, maniables et efficaces que les avions de chasse. Que les Mirage 2000 par exemple ? Les avions de chasse demandent beaucoup de dépenses évidemment pour l'achat, pour la maintenance ou le personnel. Les drones, évidemment, ce sont des sociétés privées qui en font, mais l'autorisation d'exportation émane de notre ministère de la Défense. Il faut d'abord un feu vert d'Ankara ? Voilà. Et le suivi de l'utilisation de ces engins est régulé par le ministère de la Défense et d'autres institutions qui travaillent dans ce domaine-là. Est ce qu'on peut parler, de la part de la Turquie en Afrique, d'une diplomatie du drone ? Mais la question du drone se passe seulement dans quelques pays africains pour protéger leur intégrité territoriale. Ce sont des demandes conjoncturelles qui font que la demande des pays est acceptée par la Turquie. Évidemment, les formations que l'on offre, avec un prix abordable et la continuité et la confiance qu'ils ont en la Turquie, tout cela fait que beaucoup plus de pays maintenant recourent à notre technologie dans ce domaine-là. Mais quand vos drones sont utilisés pour frapper des populations civiles, je pense au Mali par exemple, est ce que vous ne craignez pas que cela ternisse l'image de la Turquie ? Évidemment, comme je vous l'ai dit, pour les ventes et l'exportation, il y a une régulation très restreinte. On fait le suivi de ces engins-là dans ces pays-là. Donc, une mauvaise utilisation de vos drones peut conduire à la rupture de la livraison de ces drones ? Voilà, parce que c'est régulé internationalement. Nous, on ne voudrait pas nuire à l'image de la Turquie dans ce sens-là, on ne voudrait pas que ça arrive. Est ce qu'il vous est arrivé, ces dernières années, de dire à un pays africain client de vos drones : « Là, vous avez utilisé ces drones contre des populations civiles, nous ne sommes pas d'accord et nous arrêtons la livraison » ? Après, on n'a pas dit. Mais avant, on dit toujours : « Il ne faut pas les utiliser de façon inappropriée, sinon ça va être la rupture », parce qu'il y a un contrôle continu dans ce sens-là ». Et c'est arrivé qu'il y ait une rupture ? Non, ça n'est pas arrivé, mais on suit de très près pour que ce genre d'évènement n'arrive pas dans ce sens-là. En 2019, la Turquie a soutenu militairement le gouvernement Sarraj à Tripoli contre l'offensive du maréchal Haftar sur la capitale libyenne. Pourquoi avez-vous fait ce choix ? Monsieur Sarraj, c'était le leader de la Libye à ce moment-là, qui était reconnu par les Nations Unies. Du coup, quand il y a eu les actes émanant de l'Est de la Libye vers Tripoli, il a écrit une lettre de demande d'aide d'urgence aux leaders internationaux de cinq pays, y compris la France et la Turquie. Et la Turquie a été le seul pays à pouvoir répondre positivement à son appel à l'aide. Donc notre coopération avec le gouvernement de Tripoli, ça a commencé avec ces démarches de Monsieur Sarraj à ce moment-là et ça continue jusqu'à présent. Et maintenant, on voit que la Libye est en cours de pouvoir solidifier sa démocratie, disons sa gouvernance, avec l'aide qu'on leur a fournie pour que le pays ne tombe pas dans le chaos. Et justement, vous continuez de soutenir Tripoli contre Benghazi ? Le gouvernement Dbeibah contre le maréchal Haftar et ses fils ? Ou est-ce que vous essayez de réconcilier les deux camps ? Non, il n'y a pas de pour et contre. Nous avons des relations avec l'Est aussi. On a ouvert notre Consulat général à Benghazi par exemple. On a des contacts avec Monsieur Haftar et les dirigeants du côté Est. Donc on soutient toutes les parties pour qu'il y ait une entente entre eux pour stabiliser politiquement leur pays. Et je crois que Turkish Airlines atterrit maintenant à Benghazi ? Voilà ! Depuis la chute du régime Assad en Syrie, au mois de décembre dernier, la Russie redéploie ses bateaux et ses avions gros-porteurs vers l'Est de la Libye, notamment Tobrouk et Benghazi. Est-ce que cela vous préoccupe ? Non, pas du tout. Nous, on a toujours des contacts avec la Russie concernant les questions de sécurité et de défense, concernant différentes régions du monde. Donc ça ne nous préoccupe pas. Est que c'est pour apaiser la situation politique au Congo-Brazzaville… Il y a 5 ans, vous avez accepté de soigner dans votre pays, en Turquie, l'opposant Jean-Marie Michel Mokoko, qui est donc sorti de sa prison congolaise pendant quelques semaines et qui y est retourné depuis. Voilà 9 ans quand même que cet opposant politique est détenu à Brazzaville. Qu'est-ce que vous pensez de cette situation ? Pour cela, il faut voir la qualité du plateau technique sanitaire que la Turquie offre aux différents demandeurs dans ce sens-là. Les pays africains font beaucoup de demandes pour pouvoir se soigner sur le sol turc. Donc, il faut considérer cette approche du gouvernement du Congo-Brazzaville pour pouvoir soigner l'opposant. La relation qui existe entre les chefs d'Etat et la confiance qui règne entre eux… Je pense que c'est le résultat de ces approches-là qui a fait que cet opposant a pu retrouver la santé et retourner après dans son pays. Donc, c'est le témoignage d'une relation de confiance entre les présidents Sassou-Nguesso et Erdogan ? Voila. Dans votre esprit, c'est plus une approche humanitaire qu'une approche politique ? Humanitaire. Il faut voir ça sous l'optique humanitaire. Autre séjour médical très remarqué dans votre pays, la Turquie, celui évidemment de l'ancien président Alpha Condé de Guinée Conakry. Est-ce à dire que vous pourriez jouer un rôle de facilitateur aujourd'hui entre le général Doumbouya, qui est venu d'ailleurs à Ankara pour la dernière investiture du président Erdogan il y a deux ans, et les opposants guinéens en exil ? Vous savez, la médiation ne se fait pas parce que vous avez le désir d'être médiateur. Ça doit venir des parties concernées. Donc une demande n'a pas été mentionnée. Donc du coup, ça n'a pas été vu dans ce sens-là. Il n'y a pas de médiation turque sur la Guinée Conakry ? Non. On dit souvent, Volkan Isikci, qu'il y a une rivalité entre la Turquie et la France en Afrique. Est-ce que c'est vrai ou pas ? Pas du tout ! Parce que le mot rivalité, c'est quelque chose de négatif. La concurrence, ça existe parce que, dans le monde, les intérêts, ça existe. Avec la France, je pense que le mot concurrence est plus adapté, mais il faut enrichir ça avec une coopération, une collaboration. Avec les relations historiques que la France a avec le continent africain, avec l'expérience de plus en plus aiguë des acteurs turcs sur le continent, je pense qu'avec ces atouts, les deux pays peuvent servir davantage pour pouvoir subvenir aux besoins des pays concernés, pour être à côté de ceux qui en ont besoin. Et dans le cadre d'un partenariat entre les deux pays, quels sont les atouts de la France en Afrique sur lesquels vous, les Turcs, vous aimeriez vous appuyer ? Les deux pays ont des expériences différentes. Évidemment, la connaissance du terrain, la présence linguistique peuvent apporter beaucoup de choses de la part de la France. La Turquie, avec son expérience de plus en plus aiguë depuis les années 2000, peut servir davantage pour pouvoir réaliser de grands investissements dans ce sens. Moi j'aimerais bien mentionner que la zone de confort n'existe pas. Il faut prendre des risques. Il faut être sur le terrain avec un partenaire de confiance. Je pense qu'on peut faire beaucoup de choses. On croit beaucoup à ça et, quel que soit le pays, on n'a jamais essayé de destituer une entité, un pays du continent africain. Vous n'avez jamais voulu chasser la France de certains pays africains ? Pas du tout, pas du tout. On n'a pas cette position. On veut seulement développer davantage et subvenir aux besoins de nos amis africains qui nous font la demande. Vous n'êtes pas dans une démarche de rivalité avec la France, comme peut l'être la Russie par exemple ? Pas du tout, pas du tout. La question de la Russie, je ne suis pas en mesure d'y répondre, mais nous, on ne voit pas la France en tant que rivale sur le continent africain. Volkan Isikci, monsieur le Directeur général, merci. Merci beaucoup   À lire aussiEntre l'Afrique et la Turquie, un partenariat qui s'enracine À lire aussiLa Turquie s'apprête à débuter sa mission d'exploration pétrolière en Somalie

In this gripping episode, Zak Paine and Jon Herold sit down with Nick Noe, a Benghazi whistleblower whose experience inside U.S. military intelligence offers an insider's view into some of the most explosive claims of the last two decades. Nick recounts his time working at the 603rd AOC in Ramstein, where he witnessed the events of Benghazi unfolding in real-time and the orders to stand down that left American forces unable to respond. He details how these actions tied into a larger web of deception surrounding Osama bin Laden, including allegations that John Brennan facilitated bin Laden's protected status in Iran for years. The conversation dives into Extortion 17, the alleged trophy kill operation, and the suspicious deaths that followed. Nick also shares how whistleblowers were stonewalled by Congress and the FBI, and how his evidence, including recordings and classified documents, is starting to surface as military tribunals begin. This first installment offers an unfiltered look at the hidden history behind Benghazi, 9/11, election interference, and the deep state's parallel power structures.

The discussion centered on political developments, including the Vote-a-Rama process in the Senate, where multiple amendments are voted on. Musk's threat to form a new political party if the big budget bill passes was debated, with skepticism about his seriousness. The conversation also covered Trump's efforts to pass the budget bill, the potential impact of not passing it, and the role of various politicians like Rand Paul and MTG. Additionally, the group discussed the potential for large lithium-ion batteries to support the grid, the implications of Barron Trump's political activity, and the authenticity of Obama's birth certificate. The conversation revolves around political events and reflections on past elections. Speaker 4 discusses the Benghazi incident, highlighting the Marines' efforts to rescue Americans. Speakers 1 and 2 reflect on the poor candidate choices in past elections, including McCain and Palin, and the impact of scandals like Edwards' infidelity on Obama's rise. They also mention Mitt Romney's influence on Donald Trump's campaigning style. Additionally, Speaker 2 promotes Second Round Bakery and PJ's Coffee, recommending their products and services, and encourages listeners to send emails to the podcast. The episode concludes with a teaser for the next day's topic on baptism.

He unpacks why Iran's nuclear ambitions are so destabilizing, how Israel's strategy has evolved, and what the American public often misunderstands about both allies and adversaries.

In this explosive episode, CannCon and Alpha Warrior are joined by Nick Noe for a deep, unflinching look at some of the most controversial operations of the modern era. Nick walks through the tangled web connecting Osama bin Laden, Extortion 17, and the Benghazi attacks, explaining Alan Howell Parrot's extensive evidence that bin Laden was sheltered in Iran and that the infamous SEAL Team 6 raid was a staged trophy kill. The trio dives into the CIA's covert Safari Club, secret payouts, and weapons trafficking under Hillary Clinton, including the flow of Stinger missiles through Benghazi that were later used to shoot down American helicopters. They also break down how black budgets and stay-behind networks shaped regime change from Iran to Ukraine, and why General Dan “Raisin” Kane's sudden rise to power signals a larger military restructuring. With stories of vanishing witnesses, threats against whistleblowers, and decades of hidden crimes, this episode is a marathon of classified history, raw frustration, and a call to expose it all.

Au Mali, le conseil des ministres a donc adopté un projet de loi qui accorde au chef de l'État un mandat de cinq ans, renouvelable. Une initiative qui coule de source, si l'on en croit Sahel Tribune, qui se fait l'écho d'un sondage effectué début janvier par une fondation allemande, la F.E.S., dont « il ressort que 7 Maliens sur 10 font confiance au président de la transition et que 9 Maliens sur 10 sont satisfaits ou plutôt satisfaits de la gestion de la transition, sauf dans le district de Bamako ».

After leaving the military in 2016, Fettes didn't take the easy road. Like many veterans, the transition to civilian life came with its own set of battles. But in true warrior fashion, he forged a new path—launching 'Be Free Craft Ice Cream' in 2022, a small-batch, veteran-owned ice cream brand based in Virginia Beach. Each flavor is a tribute to his military past, blending boldness and creativity like only a seasoned operator could. He recently provided private security for Shawn Ryan during a controversial trip to Romania—and he's just getting started.

She highlights the importance of the U.S. surveying Al-Qaeda and warns of what will happen if their potential threat is not taken seriously. Sarah also encourages Americans to report suspicious activity and advocates for the government to address these threats.  Bring on the stupid: A missing man in Turkey joins his own search party before realizing he was the one they were looking for.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Never mind. I found a good Memorial Day episode. And by "I", I mean it definitely wasn't Louisville Joe who came up with the idea and found the episode number for me. Nope, all me. Anyway, Tig, Oz, and Tanto were all present at the attacks in Benghazi in 2012. Can't get much more military than that. Surprisingly, for people who recently saw direct combat, they're fairly upbeat.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 740 Can collagen help you ‘die young as late as possible' and keep your body in peak condition? Sean Lake, Founder of BUBS Naturals, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 740, to share how collagen supplementation transformed his own healing process, allowing him to maintain a life of adventure in his 50s, why only a fraction of supplement companies genuinely care about helping you heal, and how collagen helps with connective tissue repair and alleviating joint pain. "After you're in your early mid-20s, you lose 1 to 2% of the collagen in your body every year. So when you turn 55, you're at half. All of your connective tissue support is fed by the exogenous intake of collagen peptides, and it fuels that collagen production inside the human body." - Sean Lake 20% Off BUBS Naturals' Collagen Peptides Using BUBS' Collagen supports your body and enhances overall wellness from the inside out. BUBS Collagen Peptides start out as grass-fed bovine collagen and are then turned into collagen peptides through a controlled enzymatic hydrolysis process. This process transforms the collagen into much smaller and easily digestible peptides that are highly bioavailable. Collagen peptides are typically recommended for those looking to support skin health, improve joint function, boost bone density, and enhance hair and nail growth.

Leave Wellness + Wisdom a Review on Apple Podcasts Power Quotes From The Show Exogenous Collagen Peptides "If you exogenously take collagen peptides, it will have your body endogenously producing collagen peptides. And that collagen protein in your body is going to help with your hair, skin and nails. But more importantly, it will improve your muscle recovery, joint health, and intestinal health." - Sean Lake Show Your Children The Right Path "I'm hell bent on taking care of myself physically, mentally, spiritually, as much as humanly possible, learning as much as I can, because I want to be as present as possible so that I can give all that up to be there for my children. So that it's not about me, it's about them. What am I bringing to the table to help shape them, to help steer them, to help show them the path? They have to walk it, but I want to show them the right path." - Sean Lake Can You Get Enough Collagen From Your Diet? "Ground beef and bone broth are an amazing way to get gelatin collagen in the body. But what you don't realize is how much you'd have to eat. For most bodies, 20 grams is the baseline. But to get 20 grams from nature, you'd have to be eating a lot of ground beef or bone broth. And our lifestyles don't really allow us to do that and then there's also a digestive cost." - Sean Lake Links From Today's Show  Sean Lake BUBS Naturals - 20% off with code JOSH20 357 Robb Wolf | Sacred Cow: The Case for (Better) Meat The Collagen Synthesis Response to an Acute Bout of Resistance Exercise Is Greater when Ingesting 30 g Hydrolyzed Collagen Compared with 15 g and 0 g in Resistance-Trained Young Men 216 Exploring The Shadow Self For Healing: George Bryant 629 Paul Chek | Spirit Gym: How To Find The Truth of Your Soul + Live Your Dream 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi (2016) The Queen's Code by Alison Armstrong Driven by Dr. Doug Brackmann + Randy Kelley Thomas DeLauer Josh's Trusted Products | Up To 40% Off Shop All Products Biohacking⁠ MANNA Vitality - Save 20% with code JOSH20 HigherDOSE - 15% off with the code JOSH15 PLUNGE - $150 off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE Pulsetto - Save 20% with code "JOSH" SaunaSpace - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Ultrahuman Ring Air - 10% off with code JOSH NutriSense - 30% off with WELLNESSFORCE Wellness Test Kits Choose Joi - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH Blokes - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH FertilityWize Test by Clockwize - Save 10% with code JOSH Tiny Health Gut Tests - $20 off with discount code JOSH20 VIVOO Health Tests - Save 30% off with code JOSH SiPhox Health Blood Test - Save 15% off with code JOSH Nutrition + Gut Health Organifi - 20% off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE SEED Synbiotic - 25% off with the code 25JOSHTRENT Paleovalley -  Save 15% off here!

In 2018, he launched BUBS Naturals, naming the company after his best friend and adventure partner, Navy SEAL Glen “Bub” Doherty, who was killed in the 2012 Benghazi attack. BUBS commits 10% of every sale to veteran-focused charities, most notably the Glen Doherty Memorial Foundation and the Navy SEAL Foundation, so the business is, in Lake's words, “a perpetual fundraiser disguised as a supplement company.” Website Instagram Facebook YouTube

The world has a lot wrong with it right now. There are serious injustices. We can't fix everything. But as Sean Lake's story proves, sometimes you look around and realize your moment has come, and you answer the call to step up and right a serious wrong.For Sean, that moment tragically came when his best friend Navy SEAL Glen Doherty was killed in action, defending the CIA Annex in the notorious Benghazi strike on 9/11/2012. Discovering a major inequity in the death benefits system, Sean sued the federal government, challenged the CIA, and ultimately succeeded in getting the agency to change its standards to offer its personnel like Glen a proper death benefit. In fact, because of Sean's work, the CIA not only changed the standard, they retroactively awarded death benefits to over fifty families.Today, Sean is a successful entrepreneur, a devoted husband and a loving father. As a former professional athlete, he maintains an impressively active lifestyle, engaging in snowboarding, cross-training and various athletic endeavors that few would dare attempt after the age of 50.https://www.bubsnaturals.com

Mark Lamb is the unapologetically bold, newly-retired Sheriff of Pinal County, Arizona, who made national waves for bringing old-school grit and modern media savvy to law enforcement. Serving from 2017 to 2024, Lamb wasn't just a badge and a gun—he became a digital-era lawman, turning to YouTube to share raw, unfiltered police footage while regularly appearing on FOX News, Newsmax, Live PD, and 60 Days In. Known for his no-nonsense stance on border security, Lamb stepped into the political arena in 2024, launching a U.S. Senate run to replace Kyrsten Sinema—only to be edged out in a high-profile primary battle by Kari Lake. After nearly two decades of service and a reputation that stretches far beyond Arizona, Sheriff Lamb officially hung up his badge on December 31st, 2024—but he's far from done making noise. #sheriff #LEO #navyseals #sherifflamb #arizona #lawenforcement #backtheblue Subscribe to the Mike Drop Patreon Page to see Ad-Free Episodes Early + Bonus Content at https://www.patreon.com/mikedrop ---------- Support Mark Lamb - Get Your Copy of Mark's Book 'American Sheriff: Traditional Values in a Modern World' and 'American Sheriff: Rules to Live By' at https://www.sherifflamb.com/ Website - https://www.sherifflamb.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/americansheriff/ X - https://x.com/sherifflamb1 Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/sherifflamb ---------- Sponsors: C.

Ashe in America and CannCon crack open Chapters 2 and 3 of Government Gangsters, uncovering shocking connections between the Benghazi cover-up, selective prosecutions, and the real roots of the deep state's grip on justice. From Kash Patel's courtroom showdowns and DOJ sabotage to the weaponization of the judiciary and the truth behind SignalGate, this episode hits harder than a redacted Special Forces op. Throw in a few spicy sidebars on failed upward mobility, the FBI's greatest hits, and Epstein theories, and you've got a book club like no other.  

Iron Butterfly Podcast is back for part two of our season premiere with Katrina Mulligan!  Part two is just as fun as the first with Katrina diving back into her extraordinary career. Currently the National Security Lead at Open AI, Katrina shares her experiences as Barack Obama's paralegal before he even ran for the Senate, working on GTMO policy at the ODNI, and being Chief of Staff to the first female Secretary of the Army. Along the way, she shares some unforgettable moments and reflections. She even talks about attending Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour and making friendship bracelets with her boss!

Ghost is joined by CannCon and Alpha Warrior for a powerful deep dive into the tragic Tongo Tongo ambush that claimed the lives of four U.S. soldiers in Niger in 2017. What was originally framed as a simple reconnaissance mission quickly turned deadly...and suspicious. The crew breaks down the mission's timeline, the intel failures, and the eerie absence of air support, while exploring the theory that this was no accident but part of a much darker operation. They also dig into the media's attempt to spin the story as "Trump's Benghazi," the Pentagon's questionable cover-up, and the geopolitics behind it all, including CIA involvement, uranium interests in Niger, and the globalist plan to destabilize Africa. A gripping and emotional episode that shines light on a story too many have forgotten.  

Clint Emerson is a retired DEVGRU Navy SEAL, bestselling author, media personality, and the #1 crisis management professional you want in your corner when things go awry. As an operative within the elite SEAL Team 6, Clint served in various combat zones executing high-stakes missions including against Somali Pirates, Al Qaeda Leaders, and other covert operations. And he's a returning guest to the podcast as well - a personal friend of Mike's outside the studio, familiar fans will recognize Clint from his previous appearances alongside the likes of Shane Hiatt and Clark Impastato. But lately, Clint's been working on something new - a state-of-the-art crisis management and risk mitigation company called 'Escape The Wolf' that's been making worldwide waves in the private security sector due to Clint's emphasis on providing actionable information on insecure corporate buildings, file systems, and even employees - all obtained by breaking into multi-billion dollar corporations in the dead of night, among other means. And speaking of security, what kind of hardware are two retired Navy SEALs like Mike and Clint hauling around in their EDC's nowadays, anyway?

Jon Herold and GhostofBPH dive deep into one of the most sinister cover-ups in recent history...the Tongo Tongo ambush in Niger. Was it a Pentagon-orchestrated setup to create a Benghazi-style scandal against Trump? The guys break down the botched mission, the outrageous media spin, and the real reason Green Berets were left to die while the deep state scrambled for damage control. They also dissect the latest Epstein document debacle, Pam Bondi's weak rollout, and the ongoing exposure of the DOJ and FBI. Plus, the team takes a hard look at Ukraine's sudden pivot to peace and what it really means for the deep state's grip on global power. It's a wild ride of hard truths, baseless theories, and just enough chaos to keep things interesting.

P1: And we're back for another fiery show! Tig Tiegen joins us to discuss his time in Benghazi, recounting the story of 13 Hours and highlighting what a proper, masculine militia looks like—and why such a force is necessary to properly defend our country. Later, Joe and Tig discussed Pam Bondi's confirmation hearing for Attorney General, noting how she stood her ground on key issues that have concerned Americans for years. They also touched on Marco Rubio's hearing for Secretary of State, commending how he clearly and effectively articulated his position. In closing, the pair urged that our GOP members must support Trump's picks. Failure to do so would be a blatant betrayal, not just to Trump, but also to the people.

Alex Cody Foster is one of the most successful Ghost Writers in the world. Having penned eight #1 Amazon best sellers, he's one of the most sought-after Ghosts in the field - a reputation that would eventually attract the attention of the highly controversial crypto magnate John McAfee. Alex's travels with Team McAfee would go on to inspire his book 'The Man Who Hacked The World: A Ghostwriter's Descent Into Madness with John McAfee', along with inspiring the Netflix documentary 'Running with the Devil' in which Alex himself would also star. Since then, Alex has continued writing, dancing along illicit lines with the story of Owen Hanson in 'The California Kid: From USC Golden Boy to International Drug Kingpin' along with his investigations into serial killers and murder theories. Recently he's taken a keen interest in one criminal conspiracy - the Smiley Face Murders, a serial killer theory alleging that the drowning of 45 men across the United States are actually the collected works of by a shadowy group of murderous individuals. It all makes for a killer conversation - now if only we had the perfect ghost to punch it up. --- Chapters: 00:00 - Intro 09:54 - Obsessed with the Craft 19:29 - Waking Up in Different Timezones 28:39 - Growing Up in the Woods on the Cape 37:13 - Nearly Expelled from High School 51:57 - Going Homeless to Hitchhike Across the Country 01:18:51 - A Homeless Documentarian on the Streets of L.A. 01:33:49 - How to Shoot a Documentary With No Money 01:47:31 - Meeting My First Serial Killer 02:02:00 - I Remember When I Lost My Mind 02:26:30 - A Memoir in Maine 02:33:43 - Ghost Writing in Bar Harbor 02:44:08 - Finding the Next James Patterson 02:50:14 - Then I Met John McAfee (Thanks to Jimmy Watson) 03:06:33 - Team McAfee Falls Apart 03:17:59 - The Man Who Predicted John McAfee (& Jeffrey Epstein's) Demise 03:25:21 - On Body Language - Detecting Killers with Predatory Intent 03:35:25 - Stepping into the World of Serial Killers 03:57:33 - Regarding the Smiley Face Killers 04:15:05 - Starting WHSK - We Hunt Serial Killers 04:19:01 - Writing the Owen Hanson Story in 'The California Kid --- Support Alex Cody Foster - Get Your Copy of Alex's Books 'The Man Who Hacked The World' & 'The California Kid' at https://shorturl.at/VP38G We Hunt Serial Killers Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/whskofficial We Hunt Serial Killers YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WHSKOfficial Website: https://www.alexfosterghostwriter.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexfosterghostwriter --- Sponsors: 120Life Go to https://www.120life.com - that's https://www.120life.com - and remember to use code, “DROP” D-R-O-P to support the show and save 15%! --- BUBS Naturals The BUBS namesake derives from Glen ‘BUB' Doherty, who was heroically killed in Benghazi, Libya in 2012.
