Podcast appearances and mentions of Carter Page

In this Memorial Day episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold pays tribute to America's fallen heroes while unpacking a whirlwind of geopolitical power shifts, economic reforms, and cultural chaos. Trump's Memorial Day message blends reverence with savage takedowns of open borders, activist judges, and the DC swamp, setting the tone for a show brimming with hard truths and sharp commentary. Jon breaks down Trump's invocation of the Defense Production Act to fast-track nuclear energy, a strategic move with global implications, particularly for data centers and AI infrastructure. He dives into the future of small modular reactors and the race for energy dominance, tying in the crypto boom and Trump Media's plan to raise $3B to invest in Bitcoin. The episode also explores the war in Ukraine, Trump's jabs at Putin and Zelensky, and the drone warfare redefining modern conflict. Updates on Harvard's foreign student standoff, the Big Beautiful Bill's Senate fight, Grok AI's federal use, and a federal court's dismissal of Carter Page's lawsuit round out the show. With memes, Macron slaps, and a fiery liberal meltdown thrown in, this episode delivers a signature mix of insight, irreverence, and political real talk, Jon style.

In this compelling episode of Hearts of Oak, we delve into the critical issues facing America and beyond through the eyes of an experienced investigative journalist. From the perils of drug cartels and human trafficking to the contentious policies at the U.S. border, this discussion uncovers the layers of national security, immigration, and the moral fabric of society. We explore the impact of policy shifts between administrations, the media's role in storytelling, and the global implications of these domestic policies. Join us as we discuss potential pathways to reclaiming order, security, and cultural identity in an era of widespread change.

Thanks so much for joining us once again. And it's great to have a brand new guest all the way across the pond. And that is Sarah A. Carter. Sarah, thank you so much for your time today. Sara Carter: [0:36] Oh, thank you so much for having me on the show. It's a great show and I'm so happy to be here. Hearts of Oak: [0:40] Great. And I had the privilege of joining you on your show to discuss everything UK. It's great to have you discussing the excitement over there in the US, which provides excitement for us because we don't have much excitement in politics here in the UK. So thank you. People can follow you at Sarah Carter DC. And of course, on that, you've got the links to all your other platforms that you're on. People can find you on all of those. So make sure and jump on, click on that link just under the handle, and you'll get a list of everywhere that Sarah is on. But Sarah's a national, international award-winning investigative reporter. And I say this for a UK audience because she will be well-known for the war and posse for everyone stateside. But for the UK, I mean, her stories have ranged from national security, terrorism, immigration and frontline coverage of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. And she's been to some interesting countries, some that I may would not like to go to. So I'm glad she's done it and reported. And she is currently an investigative reporter and Fox News contributor. Lots to get into. I know I've touched on some of your background. Or maybe you'd like to just introduce yourself, especially to our UK audience, before we jump into all the fun things that are happening over there stateside. Sara Carter: [1:59] Oh, I know. First of all, Peter, thank you so much for having me on your show. Your show is so incredible. It's a great show. And I'm glad we have this option, right, where we can now speak not only freely, and we have X, of course, which is a monumental platform with Elon Musk, but we're able to talk to each other and communicate through podcasts. It becomes more of a global connection. And especially as individually, we're all fighting for our sovereignty, right? So I've been covering the board for all of you who don't know me out there. I've been a reporter, investigative reporter for more than 20 years. I actually started my career a little bit later than some, but in California, covering the cartels, the drug trafficking gang affiliations in the beautiful state of California, which is a complete mess now because of the leadership there under Gavin Newsom. But for us, for me, I was born there, raised overseas, came back and spent the rest of my youth in California. It was incredible to watch the deterioration of that state. A lot of that had to do with illegal immigration and the rise in gang affiliations and the failure of the government, the local government, to do its job in protecting its citizens. Sara Carter: [3:22] And it wasn't just about those that were on the outside of, you know, the immigration issue or, you know, those that you would think of as being more wealthy Californians or people that were middle class. It was about the kids, too. It was about our schools being overwhelmed, our public school systems with children that were not being paid attention to, with school boards that were basically turning their backs on them and using taxpayer dollars to do their own thing instead of providing an education for the children. And we had, I mean, and we still do today, sadly, children killing each other in the schools, gangs, shootouts. I remember one time in my own neighborhood, there was a 15-year-old boy that had been laying dead in the front yard of his house for two days before they actually found him because the grass was piled so high. Sara Carter: [4:16] And it was just, it's a nightmare. It was a nightmare scenario. And I thought, man, it can't get worse than this. And when I started covering Sara Carter: [4:24] the border, well, covering the gangs led me to the border. Covering the border led me to covering overseas, basically setting a goal to be a Pentagon correspondent and covering the war zones because I'd covered the border and I saw this narco traffic and terror and what we considered a connection between narco terrorism and actual terrorism overseas with the DEA, CIA, Western intelligence agencies that were monitoring what was happening in the United States and along our border and in Central America and Mexico. So I took off, came to Washington, D.C. to make a long story short, got hired by the Washington Times. Sara Carter: [5:06] They finally accepted that I was going to be a war correspondent. I don't think they were excited about that, having a woman going into the war zones at that time, but they agreed to it. I went to the Pentagon, signed off all of my paperwork, covered the Pentagon a little bit. And as soon as they started shipping people off to the battlefield, I was one of those first reporters in those groups that when I came in to head out there, Lara Logan was another reporter who was on the ground out there at the same time, female reporter. Sara Carter: [5:39] Anthony Lloyd from Great Britain. I remember him being out there quite often. Kelly Kennedy, Chris Hondros, who was killed in Libya, and Tim Hetherington, and James Cantley, who has also disappeared and was taken prisoner by Islamic State. So I saw the world from many different points of view. And I thought to myself, even when I covered, you know, the cartels, and I mean, I was going into Mexico, Peter, I was going into Nuevo Laredo when there were gun battles, and I was into Tijuana, you know, when Ariano Felix was in charge of the Tijuana cartel there, and they were beheading people and leaving their heads along Highway 1, you know, the police officials that they were usually involved in narcotics as well. So leaving signs, you know, ratones or rats or traitors, they would do that. A very terroristic style type of killing, something we saw very familiar with the Middle East extremist radical groups there. So it was horrifying and mortifying for me to watch as I progressed through my career and covered President Trump in 2016, broke all the stories on the Russia hoax. Sara Carter: [6:59] So that was another big part of my work with John Solomon in the very beginning. But then to watch as the Biden administration came in and just drop all of the executive orders that had been put in place by President Trump, who was by far the only president under the time I had covered the border and the wars and everything else you can imagine under the sun as an investigative journalist, he was the only president that I'd covered that actually meant what he said. He said, I'm going to shut down that border. I'm going to do everything I can to do it. And he did. He fought Congress on it. He made executive orders. He had the remain in Mexico. Stephen Miller was working with him on it. He really brought a semblance of control and sanity to the chaos that was happening globally with migration, which Great Britain has also faced such horrific problems with this. And then all of a sudden we have Biden. Sara Carter: [7:58] And it gets worse than anyone can imagine. The border, the flooding. Hearts of Oak: [8:04] Before you jump into the Biden mess, can I just ask you, because whenever I was last over, people were saying, oh, you need to go to Eagle Pass, Eagle Pass. And everyone has talked about you need to go to the border. And it's been it's been the fashionable thing, rightly so, because of the chaos on the border in the last four years. But it's become the in thing, kind of go to the border. You were doing this long before it was fashionable. How do you why kind of focus on that? There must be much other areas that you could have focused on, which would have been probably less heads along the road type of thing. Sara Carter: [8:36] That's a great question, and you're absolutely right. I was one of the only women, actually, over 20 years ago that was down at the border. Once in a while, I'd run into this Reuters journalist who I thought was really brilliant. He was very tall. He was British. I used to joke around with him. I'd say, you just stick out like a sore thumb here in Mexico. I'd see him coming down a sidewalk. I wish I could remember his name, but he was a great reporter. There were hardly any of us because it was so dangerous one of the most dangerous places to work in the world and and it still is considered one of the most dangerous when you're thinking of the cartels was mexico and the reason why i chose that and that's an important question was because after september 11 i believed there was a significant lapse in security at that border That despite all the 9-11 commission responses to what happened in September 11th, that there was an extraordinary failure in controlling what was happening at that border. Not only was I talking to sources in the U.S. Intelligence apparatus or DEA or Western intelligence, as people would like to say, but also the local sheriffs and police. And I saw not only the extraordinary amount of narcotics and weapons that were moving back and forth just within our own communities. Sara Carter: [9:59] But I thought to myself, if they can get all of this in, if there can be this extraordinary organization, you know, back then it was transnational criminal organizations, Sinaloa, Beltran Leyva, Sara Carter: [10:16] Vincente Carrillo Fuentes, you know, all of these, all of these massive criminal organizations that were running Mexico as a narco state, then what's, what could come in? What could come in? A WMD, terrorists, you know, other types of chemical or biological weapons. So my interest became very focused on that and also on our children. And I thought to myself, what kind of society are we when we are not even protecting ourselves? We're not even protecting our children. We're a nation of immigrants. I'm not taking that away. It's not about immigration. It's about national security and protecting the sovereignty of a nation. And that's what led me there. Over the last four years, it's been extraordinary. It became kind of like a hip thing to do. I think I was breaking ground, right? But all of a sudden, everybody wanted to be a border reporter. And let me tell you this. I'm grateful. I'm grateful for all the people that are down at the border telling stories. I'm grateful that there's a big response to it. Sara Carter: [11:20] But it's not just about what we're seeing on video coming across the river. I've seen that for over 20 years and never saw it so bad as I've seen it now with 700, a thousand plus coming across. But it's about the border being in every single one of our backyards in our neighborhoods, right across America, because we have narcotics distribution centers across the United States that these cartels have set up. They have set up transit routes that are highly guarded, not just in Mexico and along the border, Sara Carter: [11:52] Not just in Central America, Mexico and along the border, but throughout the United States where they can move people from point A to point B without even the knowledge of our U.S. Law enforcement. It's very difficult to track these cartels. They've grown to enormous organizations with hundreds of billions of dollars. And our governments allowed us to have that. it almost became very cliche that everybody was just covering the border, right? The people crossing because visually it's stunning. Yes. But what is happening in the dark corners? What is happening in our streets, in our schools, in our neighborhoods while we're just so hyper-focused on the pictures, you know, of what is happening at the border? And that's when I started to expand my work and I started looking at, you know, this is not just about the border. It's also about Western civilization in general. We have enemies that want the destruction of our way of life. Sara Carter: [12:53] They do not want the, and not just enemies that live in the shadows that I've covered for so many years, like terrorist organizations, like Islamic State or Al-Qaeda or any of these other groups. But what about our adversaries, you know, that look at the border as a way of weaponizing their targeting of our nation, of your nation, of the European countries? I mean, this is this is very serious. It's almost as if, you know, we all fell asleep. Sara Carter: [13:23] And, you know, we all know the story about the Trojan horse, but the Trojan horse was already inside our countries. I mean, it was like we delivered them into our nation, the weapons, you know, and I think that's why the American people all of a sudden started waking up. They were like, wait a minute. It is in my backyard. Wait a minute. This is happening in our schools. Why did we lose 140,000 plus people to fentanyl poisoning the way that we lost it? And let me tell you, a lot of the people, and I don't know how it is in England right now in Great Britain, but in the United States, we had massive waves, and we still do, of fentanyl tablets coming into the country. And those precursor chemicals came from China. Sara Carter: [14:11] Those precursor chemicals were basically handed over to the cartels. The cartels used them to make these pills. And also they've, they've spiked cocaine. They've put it in marijuana. So kids are going out and partying and they're dropping like that. They're dying. No child or no college student. And I say child because just several months ago, a gentleman in Rio in the Rio Grande Valley, um, lost his two, his 15 year old daughter and her 15 year old friend. And this happens every day. This story just sticks out in my head. Um, he found him dead in their bedroom, uh, because they had taken what they Sara Carter: [14:49] thought was an Adderall. Um, and yeah, Sara Carter: [14:54] They died. It was pure fentanyl. And so drugs issues, Hearts of Oak: [14:58] Looking at that from a European position or British position, and I had no grasp of it, no concept, because what the U.S. Is facing is on a level 100 times to what Europeans are facing in terms of, I remember it was April and June 2022, I went to LA, the first time I've ever been to California. I think probably the last time I'll go to california and sadly i never got to enjoy what it was like under a rig and before it was destroyed by the democrats but it was the only i remember i did nine cities in 14 days i think um in uh middle of 2022 and la was the only one i it was i felt completely unsafe and with people just wandering around lying on the pavements lying on the roads and it was it was like a war zone and I came way quite pissed off at how is this allowed to happen is is no one angry and it's come to this stage maybe in parts of the US where it's just accepted that's just the norm um but it to me as as a Brit it was utterly shocking seeing that and I've never seen anything like it um and even the tent cities and on and I I've never seen anything like it up to then and I never said anything like it from then. And it really blew my mind. Sara Carter: [16:21] It is. It's absolutely mortifying that we don't we don't do anything to stop that, that we've allowed this to happen. You know, and I think the American people were kind of asleep as well, just thinking that this is a normal part. It like crept up on them. It was like mission creep, right? Like people didn't realize it until they woke up one morning and then a man's defecating in their front lawn in Georgetown. Or like I saw with my daughter one time we were driving and it was Georgetown again. And this is a beautiful neighborhood. That's why I bring it up in Washington, DC area. And my daughter says, mommy, why is that man taking a bath in someone's front yard? And he was completely nude. He was scrubbing himself down in the front yard. There were tents everywhere. I was in, yeah, I was in Pennsylvania and Kensington where there's an overwhelming problem with fentanyl and heroin. Sara Carter: [17:21] And the, for miles and miles, blocks and blocks and blocks, you see people on carfentanil, fentanyl, mix it, mixtures of fentanyl that I can't even begin to understand how the human body can survive it. Some of this is used as tranquilizers or tranks used on, you know, elephants and, and things like this. And they, they dilute them so that they can get even a bigger high. Um, and it's, and you see people like zombies walking across the street. I've covered that story over and over again. And I will tell people I have traveled all through Central America. I have been to San Salvador. I've been to Guatemala. I've been everywhere, everywhere in Mexico. I've never seen this in any other country. And I say to myself, Sara Carter: [18:09] This is it. This is the Trojan horse, right? We don't need armies and tanks to really be at war. We need an enemy that floods our nation and a people willing to do it, willing to take it. But we need an enemy willing to flood our nation with poison. And not only have we flooded our nation with poison, but we have a government, an established government that did nothing to stop it. Sara Carter: [18:43] National security failure at epic proportions did not care. And the question that I have, because at least if there was a policy in place, at least if there was some kind of policy, but it failed, I would say, okay, they were terrible at policy. They had a bad policy, but they rethought it and they tried to change it. There was no policy. There was no policy to stop it. The policy was to leave the border wide open. The question has to be why. Why would someone's own government purposefully attempt to destroy their nation? I think in Great Britain, And I wish I can remember, and maybe you can clarify this for me, but there was an incredible speech that was all over X recently where somebody said, you know, this is purposeful. This was a move by globalists to destroy our nations and to really imprison our own people. And I tell this to people all the time. This is not freedom. Sara Carter: [19:54] What has happened here is an absolute way of controlling the populace. That is what these globalists want. They want to control the populace. And I think, you know, what we've seen with the election with President Trump is a big wake up call where people are like, wait a minute, I just I'm watching what's happening. I don't want this to happen to my child. I don't want this to happen to my country. I refuse to allow this to happen. And now they have become the cavalry, right, that have worked to put other elected officials like President Trump back in office and others with the hope that we can stop this momentum in this horrible direction that we're heading in. Because we're really heading for the destruction of the Western world as we know it. Hearts of Oak: [20:42] I want to get on to where we're heading. I know you interviewed Tom Homan recently, but there was another interview you did very recently, which was Jakob Boyens. And that's another part of an open border on the sex trade and people trafficking. But for you, as a journalist, looking at this and highlighting this, and yet there is silence, more or less silence amongst the media, maybe some media begun to wake up. But actually, it was the left or the mainstream media attacking parts of the media for highlighting this abject failure of how to run a country for society, of government. And it was a weird situation. How did you see that as a journalist? Whenever you see journalists attacking other journalists for simply highlighting what the truth is and the failures of society? Yeah. Sara Carter: [21:42] It's unbelievable to me because I remember, and now I'm more of a commentator. I am a journalist still. I do investigative columns. I try to get out there and do the, my podcasts are based on talking to people that are experts in the field and bringing them in and revealing stories that maybe others had not heard of. But I was stunned and mortified. I remember when I first started working as a journalist, I was so excited to be breaking so many stories, incredible stories. And I thought, oh, wow, now the Washington Post is going to jump on this or the New York Times, and I'm never going to get to keep my story because I would be working for a newspaper that maybe had less resources. Sara Carter: [22:24] They would have all the resources. It was kind of looked up to them. And then I realized, no, they're not doing that. They're not exposing those stories. I remember when I wrote the first stories that exposed the link, the nexus between the drug cartels and terrorist organizations and how our U.S. Apparatus was really hyper concerned with good reason that drug cartels would allow these terrorist organizations to utilize transit routes into the United States or adversarial nation states would utilize those same routes to get into the United States without detectives. And I was called an alarmist. Oh, you're just an alarmist. That will never happen. Why wouldn't it happen? Why wouldn't we have people all the time? So to see journalists turn their back on the least of us. Sara Carter: [23:19] Our job as journalists is to be a voice for the voiceless. It's to speak up and to call out, to be a watchdog on the governments, to hold them accountable for what they are doing with the populace, right? So it's our job to do that, not to work hand in hand. You know, I remember during the Russia hoax, this was the very last big, big stories that I did for a news organization and with Fox News, as well as with Sinclair News Group. And we broke the stories on Russia hoax, on what was going on with President Trump, how the Obama administration had expanded its spying, what was going on with Carter Page, what happened at Trump Tower, all those stories. And I thought to myself, wow, I really did. This is it. This is the Pulitzer story. The New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, all of them are going to jump on this, and they're just going to go crazy with it. Instead, they lapped up the soup or whatever was being served to them or the liquor that John Brennan, the head of the CIA, James Comey, the head of the FBI, James Clapper, you know, who was then head of director of national intelligence gave them Sara Carter: [24:48] Just handed them on a silver platter without question, and they targeted a sitting U.S. President of these United States that had been duly elected and voted into office, and they turned the whole world, or they attempted to, to turn the whole world against him. They called him a stooge for Russia, and instead of doing their job and doing the right thing and actually exposing the corruption in the government, they became a tool of the government, And they did the same with, look, Yakuboyens is amazing. Tara Rodas is amazing. I want to highlight that in the United States, a nation that is founded upon principles in the Constitution that should never allow slavery or servitude in this nation, that should speak out against the maltreatment of children and the sexual exploitation of people and the raping of children, that we should be the first in line to call that out and that every news agency should back that up. And it has taken, some of them haven't even talked about it at all. Others targeted movies like Sound of Freedom saying, oh, that's an over-exaggeration. Sara Carter: [26:01] Finally, there was a reporter at the New York Times, and I wish I could remember her name off the top of my head, who did an incredible piece on slavery in the United States, utilizing children. I mean, big corporations, I won't name them here because we don't want to do that right now, but they can read the story in the New York Times. But that, you know, that sell cereal, that sell chicken, that had their factories were filled with underage children in every single state that have been trafficked across our border. Sara Carter: [26:32] By the Biden administration, these kids were working in these factories in indentured servitude. That's unacceptable to me. It is absolutely stunning. It is unacceptable. And I'm so grateful for Yakuboyens. And I'm so grateful for Tara Rodas, who was the whistleblower at HHS and others who blew the whistle and have come forward because I've been reporting for more than 20 years how these children have been exploited at the border, how kids have been raped, how kids have been brought into this country and lost forever. Sara Carter: [27:03] And, you know, frankly, very few people, very few people talked about that publicly. And I don't know if it, you know what, Peter, I don't know if it's because it's too difficult to face that reality. I don't know if it's hard for people to accept that reality because once you accept that, you can't just walk away from it. And once you know that children as little as two years old are being raped and abused and lost in the system, you can't just walk away from it anymore. It's a very difficult, difficult pill to swallow. We don't want to believe that that exists. So I don't know if, but I think it is a journalistic failure. I think it is a failure. Our job is to be, again, the voice for the voiceless. Our job is to expose the truth, no matter how difficult that is. Even when you like someone, even when you think they've been the best source ever. Let's say John Brennan was the best guy ever for some of these folks at the Sara Carter: [28:12] New York Times and the Post. When he came up to them and delivered those lies, it didn't matter whether it was John Brennan, or if it was Michael Hayden, who was his buddy, but was a Republican, it didn't matter who it was. They should have said, wait a minute, show me proof. Give me three sources. Sara Carter: [28:32] And then I need to find those sources to make sure that that is the truth. But you don't just take the word of a, the head of an agency that is known to lie to then create and to then spread their lies as part of their propaganda machine. That was not our job. Hearts of Oak: [28:54] When you look at the U.S. and there is still a U.S. Identity, the American dream is still there. It's been chopped off and abused and there have been attempts to destroy that. But there is still a pull for America, very different in Europe. Europe are struggling massively with what it means for identity as you have tried to erase the nation state and what it means for nation sovereignty. So Europe are in a huge struggle, but America still has an understanding of what American means. So it's weird how you look at mass immigration, the impacts on, especially on the sector of the drugs trade. America kind of should be thinking, and this is not this, I'm just trying to work this out, that actually that's not how we do things. We know what our identity is and you'd expect the destruction that's happened in america more to happen in europe than it has but on a lesser level and yet it's europeans who are struggling with with what it means and identity um and even in your i think yesterday there was a headline on in belgium that sex workers have now got maternity and pension benefits in a world first and that europe sees it as like a little college industry uh something that you choose something and that a girl grows up and that's what she would like to be. Hearts of Oak: [30:18] So I'm wondering how that kind of identities, how that produces the chaos that we have. Because I see the US and it shouldn't be in the situation because Americans have that strong identity. You've got flag, you've got culture, you've got history. Where Europe, that's been wiped out. Sara Carter: [30:41] I know you brought up so many good points. How do I pull this thread? Hearts of Oak: [30:45] It's a lot of threads. Sara Carter: [30:49] But I can do this. Because while you were talking, I think what's happened with America first, I'll start there, is that we've had a lot of infiltration in our university systems. Now we do. You're right. We still do have this very nationalistic, I think a good 50% of us, identity, you know, of we are Americans. We stand for this. This is our history. We are a nation of immigrants. Right. And I want to think and think about it this way. We are a nation of immigrants and I would say legal immigration, but like my mother who came from Cuba in the 1960s on the Johnson freedom flights was so proud to be an American, right. That when people would ask her, they would say, Oh, you're Cuban. She would say, no, I'm American. You know, she would be just like, wait a minute. I'm so offended. You know, that you would call, I left Cuba because I had to, I had to flee in the end, but I have nothing to do with that nation. I'm an American. Um, and because of that, and because we have these kinds of renegades, you know, I call it the X gene renegades, people who have left everything behind, whether they're from Vietnam, Cuba, uh, Ireland, Sara Carter: [32:04] Great Britain, whether they came hundreds of years ago or just yesterday, Australia, wherever they came from in the world, they came to with the decision that they made that I am going to start a new life and a new chapter for future generations of my family. It's kind of the renegades, right? Sara Carter: [32:23] Now you have the renegades and you have those that are like ready to be American. And then you have those that have infiltrated the system and want to see that system changed. I call them the Obamas. And they're not Obama-like. Sara Carter: [32:36] They're Obama heavy, right? They believe that America is not a beacon of light shining on a hill. They see America as a problem. They see America as a colonizer, something that is brutal and bad in some ways and needs to be restructured. They see the constitution as antiquated, that it needs to be revamped and or removed in some way altogether. And you have this clash, kind of like the clash of the titans in America, right? And you have these professors that have been indoctrinating so many people for decades now, you know, I would say even pre, you know, Hillary college days, right? I mean, she was already indoctrinated there into the Saul Alinsky, you know, school of radicals, right? And we saw all of this and they figured out how to kind of manipulate it and use it for their own benefit because they're also very selfish, just like any good communist or socialist. They want to have all the money and put all the money in their pockets and then have all the minions live the way, you know, in poverty and do all the hard work. Sara Carter: [33:48] So you have that clash, but there was kind of an awakening in America, a big awakening, not just a little awakening. We saw it with Charlie Kirk, right? With Turning Point USA, where I think it was very brilliant. It was probably one of the most significant. I know Charlie, and I don't think I've ever told him this, but personally, Sara Carter: [34:08] But his movement started to shine light on what was happening throughout our universities and our school systems, it didn't allow the disease to fester, right? It's still there, but it's exposed. So we know it exists. Sara Carter: [34:27] In Europe, tragically, I don't know, you know, and I don't want to debate European politics that much, but, and I want to talk a little bit about that thread when it comes to, you know, Belgium and, you know, how we look at, you know, the service of women, you know, in prostitution or whatever, and the legalization of that. I had, and because I deal with children so much that have been abused, a lot of children that are trafficked are abused children already. So I want people to understand this. The majority of women that are in that service industry, supposedly in the, in the line of prostitution and that work in these industries are come from abuse. They are women that have been usually abused since they were very young. This, their sexuality is, has been kind of ripped apart, like their spirit. They don't really, and I know this from talking to them, they don't really know how to see themselves. And, you know, even if you sell yourself after the age of 18, if you've been abused since the age of two, five, six, or seven, you know, what you have, what you're purchasing, Sara Carter: [35:43] Sadly, is somebody whose spirit has been broken, who has been abused, who's damaged goods, who has never had anyone treat her the way she needs to be treated. Even if she thinks or he thinks that this is the future, wow, I'm making money, I'm making my own choices. No, you're really not. You're really selling yourself out and your respect and your body. Now, We can debate that all day long. Sara Carter: [36:14] And how Europeans see that, you know, side of things. I'm talking from personal experience and meeting children that have actually been tragically abused, horrifically abused, and they have to go to therapy. And it takes a lot to recover to some sense of normalcy for these children. And some of them do recover and some of them don't. Some of them have committed suicide. some of them go into the sex trade because that's just the only thing they're comfortable with it's the only thing they know but losing your identity in Europe is it's it is quite tragic because and I don't know if it had to do with the EU and this idea of we're just gonna you know Sara Carter: [36:57] We're all one instead of celebrating and cherishing each other's cultural differences and And the beauty in that and protecting the nation's boundaries and borders. I mean, look at what's happening now in Amsterdam. Look at what's happening in Great Britain, you know, in London. I mean, you've talked about this so much, Peter, but you see a transformation of your nation, a transformation where, sadly, there are some situations where the cultural, I mean, it's a collision course because Western society cannot live side by side with some non-Western societies that do not believe women Sara Carter: [37:47] You know, I mean, have the exact same equal rights as men, where little girls can go to school and just, you know, play sports and, you know, make their own decisions of who they want to date and where they want to go. But that's part of who we are. We have the right to choose, you know, and we have the right. I have lived in the Middle East. I grew up in Saudi Arabia. I mean, my child, my father worked for Lockheed Martin from the time I was about six years old until I was 12, 13 years old when my father got really sick. We had to come back to the United States. But I was in Saudi Arabia. I remember going through the soup and shopping at the marketplace with my mom and understanding that I could not step outside those bounds and neither could my mother. She couldn't drive a car then. She had to go on the bus. We had to be completely covered. My mother, especially I was when I was a little girl not so much I had to be covered but not so much but my mother yes and you had to live by those rules now Saudi Arabia is transforming it's changing a little bit um but we are seeing we saw with the extremism both in the Middle East um and what happened during the last 20 years plus America's longest war in Afghanistan and the terror attacks that we face not only here in the United States, but come on. It's like we have amnesia. Sara Carter: [39:15] We had the Madrid train bombings, Charlie Hebdo, Baraklan, what happened in Great Britain. I mean, my gosh, stabbings on the streets, a society of people. And look, I'm not saying we shouldn't have immigration from everywhere in the world, but legally people should be vetted. It should be proper. That's what Tom Homan and I were talking about. Should be proper vetting of people coming into your country. Do you want to have someone living next door to you that looks at your child or your daughter and you know, who's a criminal or somebody who has never thought of a woman as anything other than just a piece of property that they could do whatever they want with. I don't think so. Hearts of Oak: [40:02] I want to end, I'd love to do a whole show with you on Saudi Arabia and that clash, but we'll not even get into that because that would sidetrack us far too much. But it's this look in the future and you and i mentioned at the beginning you mentioned again having tom homin on and he one of many revolutionary picks and i think it is going to be the most revolutionary administration um that really any of us have ever seen in terms of what has to be done and to fix the the problems but me touch on that going forward because america is in a crisis at Hearts of Oak: [40:42] the moment in terms of many areas. And it seems as though President Trump is willing, I'm sure they'll not all be perfect, but is willing to put the people in place to get a grip off the issues that America faces and fix them. So tell us your thoughts as an American when you see some of those names go forward and how you see that fixing the hole that America is currently in. Sara Carter: [41:10] I mean, I'm excited. I think this is For the first time, I feel that President Trump, he not only understands how this political game has been through hell for the last, right? I mean, they have targeted this man. He doesn't have to be doing this. Everyone says that. And they're right. He doesn't have to be doing this. He could be just golfing in Scotland and enjoying his time with Melania and his family without all the pain and suffering that he has had to go through. And he endured that for all of us. And by the way, two assassination attempts. One that almost did take his life in Butler, Pennsylvania. But I think about Tom Homan and I know him personally and I work with him at Border 911 Foundation. He loves this country and he loves the people that he is trying to help. By shutting down that border, he is actually going to save lives. He is not gonna allow this perpetual industry of illicit human trafficking and drug trafficking to continue. Sara Carter: [42:15] And he is going to deport. He is going to deport first incarcerated criminals, get them all out of here, send them back home. And because President Trump is in office, he is going to be able to conduct those negotiations. I think he is the greatest negotiator on planet Earth. I really do. I think he is brilliant. Look, Trudeau was eating in Mar-a-Lago. I mean, you can't beat that. I mean, and not only eating with a smile on his face and saying, you know what, we're going to work out a deal before you put those tariffs on us. We're going to figure this out. And Mexico is starting to do its job because they want leadership. Sara Carter: [42:55] Look, neither the president of Mexico, she doesn't want it. Neither Trudeau wants it. Nobody wants the mess that we have seen for the last four years, because even Mexico has had to pay a price for it, even if they've opened the border and have allowed, you know, because it was so overwhelming, allowed people in. Remember, there's a lot of people that just stay behind. And these cartels are amassing so much money that the government of Mexico has to contend with that. You know, they have to contend with a narco state. So they don't want this. So they are probably just like, thank you, Sara Carter: [43:32] God, for bringing President Trump back because he can carry the big stick. Right. And he can say, you better do this or we're going to do that. And they're like, oh, OK, we'll see. We have to do this. So now we're going to shut this down. It kind of gives them all permission to do the right thing. Now, Tom Homan, he's also promised, and this is something he and I have discussed, you know, at nauseam and at length, that the first on top of removing criminals, criminals off the streets, incarcerated criminals, that at the same time, our focus is going to be finding those children. Remember, we had over 500,000 unaccompanied minors that have come into the United States under the Biden administration. Sara Carter: [44:15] Over 300,000 of those children we do not have records for. We cannot find them. We don't know where they're at. Now, granted, some of them may be with guardians that are taking good care of them, but we think a good portion of them have been taken into other industries. Some of these kids have been lost on the streets. Some of them have been forced into the sex trade. We know that some of them were taken to a strip club. Peter, that's crazy. They were actually released from our custody and taken to a strip club. That was the address that was given to HHS, to Health and Human Services. So with people like Tara Rodas, with Yakov Boyens, Kash Patel as head of the FBI upon confirmation, and others, I think we're going to see a cleanup like we've never seen before. And he's going to put people in that are going to gut these systems, like the FBI, which by the way, has been an utter and complete failure and embarrassment going after God only knows. I want to ask Cash Patel. In fact, I may FOIA my name to see how many times John Solomon and I had been like actually been spied on Sara Carter: [45:26] Um, so we could, we could look at that from the past, but I think the important thing is, is that we're going to, the American people are like, yes, this is reformation time. We are going to change what needs to be changed. We're going to get back to the basics and we're going to own our country again, because in the United States of America, and I want to remind everybody of this, it's the American people, each individual American citizen, that is the boss of this government. They are not the boss of us. And President Trump understands that. And that's why when he gets out there and when Tom Homan gets out there and speaks to the American people, they keep their promises. That's why when he says things publicly, he actually does them. Because the American people are in charge. They're paying the bill. They pay. Our taxpayer dollars pay for this government. Sara Carter: [46:22] And, you know, and I think even across the pond, people have to start thinking that way. We all have to start realizing that in our democracies or in our republics like the United States, that we are the voice of reason, that we are the people that matter, and that when they don't do the job that is required of them to run our nations and take care of our families and our national security that we have the right to fire them. And when they have to do something, they need to explain it to us. And it needs to go through a process. They can't just do it to us. They are not the kings and queens in charge. Excuse me. I know you've got kings and queens, but you know what I'm talking about. You know what I'm talking about. It's symbolic there, But they are not that way. We are in charge of our destiny. It is us. And I think when we come to realize that, we get our countries back, right? Sara Carter: [47:25] Europe needs to get that back. The European people need to stand up and say, no more. Not another child of mine is going to be attacked on the streets of Amsterdam. No more. Not another day goes by where we're going to put up with what this government is trying to enforce on us, because we have the right and the right lies with us. And when we give up those rights, We have bureaucracies that become emboldened, overpowered, full of power, and they believe that they can do anything. And that's why we've got to take that back now. We've got to knock them down a few notches and let them know that they are not the end-all, be-all, and that they don't own us. Hearts of Oak: [48:14] That they work for us. It's exciting because I know that President Trump is going to embolden a lot of what's happening in Europe. The Freedom Party came top in a local poll a couple of days ago. Alternative for Deutschland pulling out by 20-odd percent. And what's happening in America is going to spread and give momentum to the rise of populist parties all across Europe. So it's certainly not just constrained to America, but what is happening with you is going to spread very much wider. Sarah, I really appreciate you coming on. Thank you so much for giving us your thoughts. You've done so much work on the border, as I said before, Kim Fashionable. You were there in those extremely dangerous situations and many other places in the world war zone. So I appreciate you coming on and giving us your expert analysis of what is happening over in your country. Sara Carter: [49:06] It's my pleasure, Peter. Thank you so much. And it's okay to be popular. Don't feel bad. Don't feel bad. Take back the power, right? And take back your countries. There's no greater feeling in the world than what we felt on election day when those numbers rolled in. And we saw that President Trump actually became the president of these United States again, and that we were going to get back to where we needed to be. I can't tell you the celebrations here, how people felt and how great it was so i we're hoping the same for europe for great britain um which i mean we look to you when we as well uh for your leadership and friendship and god bless you peter and your beautiful nation i can't wait to go to london i want fish and chips and just a great time and i want to go to a pub what was your favorite pub again i Hearts of Oak: [49:59] Have lots of favorite pubs So you can't narrow that down. That's an impossible question. But before London becomes fully Londonistan, do come and enjoy whatever English parts are left of London. We'll go outside London. We'll go to Wingsland and see the castle and the royal family and all that stuff. Sara Carter: [50:18] That's what I'd like. That's what I'd like. Not Londonistan, but I'd like that. And, okay, I remembered one pub. I walked by it. I never forgot its name, the Handsome Cab. I don't know what it is. So nobody from England come after me on that one. If it's a bad pub, I don't know. But I remember thinking, I want to go to that pub one day. But anyways, yeah, I love Great Britain. I can't wait to come see you. And yes, let's go outside of London. I still haven't seen Stonehenge. So maybe one of these trips, I'll get to see it. And now we're outside London. It's easy.   Special thanks to Bosch Fawstin for recording our intro/outro on this podcast. Recorded on 03.12.24

 A new report by independent journalists Matt Taibbi and Michael Shellenberger alleges that the CIA utilized its contacts with overseas spy agencies to illegally facilitate spy operations on 26 Donald Trump campaign staffers. If true, this report would be historic. We already know, thanks to the Mueller report, that the FBI improperly obtained a FISA warrant to spy on Carter Page - did the CIA do the same thing to 26 other individuals? I have the details. Plus, the New York Times is reporting on intelligence that suggests Russia may be close to putting nuclear weapons in space… and, there's a big court appearance happening in Georgia.

* Unveiling the Enigma: US DoD's Mysterious COVID-19 Research Contract in Ukraine – A Timeline That Defies the Pandemic Narrative!". * Our government lied to you about Covid-19!!!! They knew prior to any information being released to the public. This will explain the war in Ukraine once and for all. * In early January 2020, reports surfaced regarding a novel coronavirus, initially presenting as a pneumonia-like illness in Wuhan, China. However, the official designation of Covid-19 by the WHO did not occur until February 11, 2020. Curiously, US DOD, data indicates a contract awarded on November 12, 2019, to Labyrinth Global Health INC. for 'COVID-19 Research.' This timing predates both the alleged emergence of the novel coronavirus and the official designation of Covid-19 by one and three months, respectively. * d official naming of Covid-19. Adding to the intrigue, the location specified for the Covid-19 research contract is Ukraine, a country entangled in geopolitical tensions where the US Military Industrial Complex is reportedly engaged in a proxy war against Russia. * CIA and foreign intelligence agencies illegally targeted 26 Trump associates before 2016 Russia collusion claims. Former CIA Director John Brennan identified and presented the targets to the US's intelligence-sharing partners in the so-called “Five Eyes” agencies – the intelligence-gathering organizations in the US, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand – according to a report published Monday on Michael Shellenberger's Public Substack. * Former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith was sentenced to probation in 2021 after admitting that he falsified an e-mail to renew a wiretap against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. * Last March, Special Counsel John Durham concluded that the FBI investigation of Trump's alleged collusion with Russia was “seriously flawed” and had no basis in evidence, after a four-year review of the probe. * We are releasing information on a secret 2020 Election Day phone call organized by The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). * FOIA Documents Reveal Secret 2020 Election Day Meeting With CISA, Dominion, ES&S, ERIC, FBI, Leftist Organizations, State Officials, and Others. * We have evidence that a private meeting was organized by CISA officials on November 3, 2020, at 3:30 PM Eastern Time with select members of a secret “Election Security Initiative.” * The report revealed collusion between the US government (the FBI, DOJ, EAC, and CISA), with progressive groups and individuals fueled by progressive money related to US elections (like the Elections Group, CTCL, and Brennan Center), along with individuals from US corporations like Microsoft.

Papadopoulos was interviewed by FBI agents on January 27, 2017, regarding any Trump campaign connections with Russia. After the interrogation, on the advice of his counsel, Papadopoulos deactivated his Facebook account, which contained correspondences with Russians, and created a new account.[82] On July 27, 2017, Papadopoulos was arrested upon landing at Washington-Dulles International Airport, placed in handcuffs and leg shackles, and put in a prison cell overnight for his arraignment the following day. He was released without bail and cooperated with Special Counsel Robert Mueller in his investigation.[63]On October 5, 2017, Papadopoulos pleaded guilty in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia to making false statements to FBI agents relating to contacts he had with agents of the Russian government while working for the Trump campaign.[83][48] The guilty plea was part of a plea bargain reflecting his cooperation with the Mueller investigation.[63] Papadopoulos's arrest and guilty plea became public on October 30, 2017, when court documents showing the guilty plea were unsealed.[84] Following his guilty plea, Trump described Papadopoulos as a "young, low-level volunteer named George, who has already proven to be a liar" and said few people in his campaign had heard about Papadopoulos.[85][86] FactCheck.org and PolitiFact, among others, noted that during the campaign, Trump, reading from a script, named Papadopoulos as one of his five foreign policy advisers—alongside Keith Kellogg, Carter Page, Walid Phares, and Joseph Schmitz—and described Papadopoulos as an "excellent guy".[87

Roger Stone, a partisan Republican, and Gene Valentino compare the political past to the political future. Roger Stone predicts Trump will be the nominee.  He compares his firsthand relationship with Richard Nixon to his current relationship with Donald Trump.  He says Trump will be the beneficiary of a more open/honest election through effective oversight. How much of Trump's past experience in government will reflect the way he leads in the future?  Roger Stone capsulizes the inside truth about the John Durham report that there was an illegal use of the FISA warrants to spy of Donald Trump and staff. Roger describes that there were wire taps on his phone as well as Paul Manafort, and Carter Page, claiming they had ‘Russian collusion' communications.  He reflects on John F. Kennedy's presidential campaign against Richard Nixon.  “Had Nixon had the internet to launch counter offenses against Kennedy, he would have survived against Kennedy,” says Roger Stone.  Stone was also accused of Wikileaks communications with Julian Assange, which was not the case.  Evidence shows no such communication existed. Not only Donald Trump, but Roger Stone as well have questioned anomalies in the last 2020 election. Roger talks about the unsubstantiated accusations against Trump that led to the Trump indictments. Roger compares the Biden Crime Family antics, and those of the Democrat Party, to historical patterns that go back to the Kennedy/Johnson Administrations. Go to MarcoPoloUSA.org. Roger says that there you'll find the actual posted contents of Hunter Biden's laptop. Trump considers himself the sole reason Ron DeSantis became Governor.  Trump's support of DeSantis reinvigorated the doomed candidacy of DeSantis. For this reason, Roger says there's no chance Trump would entertain a Trump/DeSantis ticket. Roger wants DeSantis to focus on Florida's malaria epidemic and insurance crisis. On Biden's term of office, Roger thinks it's possible Biden will stay in office long enough to pardon himself and the others in the Biden Crime Family whether he's the Democratic nominee or not.  He believes Biden will enact the War Powers Act in order to avoid the next presidential election entirely, in order to postpone the next election indefinitely.  He says Trump will prevail across the board on all of these charges. He outlines Biden Administration's violation of a treaty we signed with Russia, all because Joe Biden felt the need to step up and protect Ukraine. “Under Trump we saw that Russia would not invade Ukraine.  Putin was scared of Trump.  We are vaulting dangerously toward WW3 under Biden's Administration.  When Trump prays, he prays for America, not himself,” Stone says.Originally Recorded on Wednesday, September 13, 2023 at 10:30am CSTSeason 2, Episode 17Learn More at: GeneValentino.comImage(s) Courtesy of: Gene Valentino Join the Conversation: https://GeneValentino.com WMXI Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/NewsRadio981 More WMXI Interviews: https://genevalentino.com/wmxi-interviews/ More GrassRoots TruthCast Episodes: https://genevalentino.com/grassroots-truthcast-with-gene-valentino/ More About Gene Valentino: https://genevalentino.com/about-gene-valentino/

The Resolution Audio Sources June 21, 2023 House Floor June 21, 2023 House Floor Clips 1:15 Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL): With access to sensitive information unavailable to most Members of Congress, and certainly not accessible to the American people, Representative SCHIFF abused his privileges, claiming to know the truth, while leaving Americans in the dark about this web of lies. These were lies so severe that they altered the course of the country forever: the lie that President Donald Trump colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 Presidential election revealed to be completely false by numerous investigations, including the Durham report; the lie that the Steele dossier—a folder of falsified and since completely debunked collusion accusations funded by the Democratic Party—had any shred of credibility, yet Representative SCHIFF read it into the CONGRESSIONAL RECORD as fact; the lies concocted and compiled in a false memo that was used to lie to the FISA court, to precipitate domestic spying on U.S. citizen, Carter Page, violating American civil liberties. 12:20 Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): Mr. Speaker, to my Republican colleagues who introduced this resolution, I thank you. You honor me with your enmity. You flatter me with this falsehood. You, who are the authors of a big lie about the last election, must condemn the truthtellers, and I stand proudly before you. Your words tell me that I have been effective in the defense of our democracy, and I am grateful. 13:15 Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): Donald Trump is under indictment for actions that jeopardize our national security, and MCCARTHY would spend the Nation's time on petty political payback, thinking he can censure or fine Trump's opposition into submission. But I will not yield, not one inch. The cost of the Speaker's delinquency is high, but the cost to Congress of this frivolous and yet dangerous resolution may be even higher, as it represents another serious abuse of power. 14:50 Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): This resolution attacks me for initiating an investigation into the Trump campaign's solicitation and acceptance of Russian help in the 2016 election, even though the investigation was first led not by me but by a Republican chairman. 15:10 Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): It would hold that when you give internal campaign polling data to a Russian intelligence operative while Russian intelligence is helping your campaign, as Trump's campaign chairman did, that you must not call that collusion, though that is its proper name, as the country well knows. 15:30 Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): It would fine me for the costs of the critically important Mueller investigation into Trump's misconduct, even though the special counsel was appointed by Trump's own Attorney General. 16:00 Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): It would reprimand me over a flawed FISA application, as if I were its author or I were the Director of the FBI, and over flaws only discovered years later and by the inspector general, not Mr. Durham. In short, it would accuse me of omnipotence, the leader of some vast deep state conspiracy. Of course, it is nonsense. 16:50 Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): My colleagues, if there is cause for censure in this House, and there is, it should be directed at those in this body who sought to overturn a free and fair Election. 19:05 Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL): Representative SCHIFF used his position as the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee to mislead the American people by falsely claiming that there was classified evidence of Russia colluding with President Trump, which was not true. 22:15 Rep. Nick Langworthy (R-NY): SCHIFF repeatedly used the authority he was afforded in his position as chairman to lie to the American people to support his political agenda. Even after the Durham report discredited the Russia hoax, he continued to knowingly lie and peddle this false narrative. 24:45 Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY): ADAM SCHIFF has done nothing wrong. ADAM SCHIFF is a good man. ADAM SCHIFF has served this country with distinction. ADAM SCHIFF served this country well as a Federal prosecutor, fighting to keep communities safe. ADAM SCHIFF served this country well as the chair of the House Intelligence Committee, investigating people without fear or favor, including those at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue because he believes in the Constitution and his oath of office. ADAM SCHIFF served his country well as the lead impeachment manager during the first impeachment trial of the former President of the United States, prosecuting his corrupt abuse of power. Yes, ADAM SCHIFF served this country well in the aftermath of the violent insurrection. He pushed back against the big lie told by the puppet master in chief and participated as a prominent member of the January 6th Committee to defend our democracy. ADAM SCHIFF has done nothing wrong. He has worked hard to do right by the American people. The extreme MAGA Republicans have no vision, no agenda, and no plan to make life better for the American people, so we have this phony, fake, and fraudulent censure resolution. A DAM SCHIFF will not be silenced. We will not be silenced. House Democrats will not be silenced today. We will not be silenced tomorrow. We will not be silenced next week. We will not be silenced next month. We will not be silenced next year. We will not be silenced this decade. We will not be silenced this century. You will never ever silence us. We will always do what is right. We will always fight for the Constitution, fight to defend democracy, fight for freedom, expose extremism, and continue America's long, necessary, and majestic march toward a more perfect Union. 29:10 Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC): Not only did he spread falsehoods that abused his power, he went after a man, Carter Page, who was completely innocent. Inspector General Horowitz found 17 major mistakes. 31:20 Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL): What really gnaws on the majority and what really bothers them is that Mr. SCHIFF was way better than anybody on their team at debate, at leadership, at messaging, and at legal knowledge. He kicked their ass. He was better, he was more effective, and that still bothers them. 35:40 Rep. Tom McClintock (R-CA): Mr. Speaker, I opposed the original version of this resolution, not to defend Mr. SCHIFF's lies, but to defend the process that exposed those lies. We must never punish speech in this House, only acts. The only way to separate truth from falsehoods or wisdom from folly is free and open debate. We must never impose excessive fines that would effectively replace the constitutional two-thirds vote for expulsion with a simple majority. This new version removes the fine and focuses instead on specific acts, most particularly the abuse of his position as Intelligence Committee chairman by implying he had access to classified information that did not exist and his placement into the CONGRESSIONAL RECORD of the Steele dossier that he knew or should have known was false. 42:35 Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT): The most important thing I can say is that I sat next to ADAM SCHIFF for years. He is a man of integrity and dignity. 49:45 Rep. Sylvia Garcia (D-TX): ADAM SCHIFF is tough. ADAM SCHIFF is smart. ADAM SCHIFF gets the job done. ADAM SCHIFF holds the powerful accountable. 56:35 Rep. André Carson (D-IN): Mr. Speaker, what I do know is that ADAM SCHIFF defended the U.S. Constitution. He led an impartial investigation which followed the facts and led to the first of two impeachments of a former President. 1:00:20 Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL): Today, we are voting on a joke of a measure to censure ADAM SCHIFF, a true public servant and patriot. I urge a strong ‘‘no'' against this resolution targeting a true American hero. 1:08:30 Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA): The only advantage to all of this is that instead of reversing what we did on the IRA to save the planet or reversing what we did to reduce the cost of prescription drugs, we are wasting time. September 26, 2019 CNN Clips 9:05 Wolf Blitzer: As you know, Mr. Chairman, you're being severely criticized by a lot of Republicans for mocking the president during your opening remarks today at the committee. Was it a mistake to make light of the situation? Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): Well, I don't think it's making light of a situation. And I certainly wouldn't want to suggest that there's anything comical about this. But I do think it's all too accurate, that this President, in his conversations with the President of Ukraine, was speaking like an organized crime boss. And the fact that these words are so suggestive that the President used of what we have seen of organized crime harkens back to me of what, for example, James Comey said when he was asked by the President if he could let this matter involving Flynn go, when Michael Cohen testified about how the President speaks in a certain code where you understand exactly what's required here. The point is that the President was using exactly that kind of language. And the President of Ukraine fully understood what he was talking about. Wolf Blitzer: Do you regret the, what you call the parody, the use of those phrases during the course of your opening statement? Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): No, I think everyone understood -- and my GOP colleagues may feign otherwise -- that when I said, suggested that it was as if the President said, "listen carefully, because I'm only going to tell you seven more times" that I was mocking the President's conduct. But make no mistake about this, what the President did is of the utmost gravity and the utmost seriousness, because it involves such a fundamental betrayal of his oath. September 26, 2019 House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Witnesses: Joseph Maguire, Acting Director of National Intelligence, Office of the Director of National Intelligence Clips 6:54 Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): President Zelensky, eager to establish himself at home as the friend of the president of the most powerful nation on earth, had at least two objectives: get a meeting with the president and get more military help. And so what happened on that call? Zelensky begins by ingratiating himself, and he tries to enlist the support of the president. He expresses his interest in meeting with the president, and says his country wants to acquire more weapons from us to defend itself. 7:30 Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): And what is the President's response? Well, it reads like a classic organized crime shakedown. Shorn of its rambling character and in not so many words, this is the essence of what the President communicates. We've been very good to your country. Very good. No other country has done as much as we have. But you know what? I don't see much reciprocity here. I hear what you want. I have a favor I want from you, though. And I'm going to say this only seven times, so you better listen good. I want you to make up dirt on my political opponent. Understand? Lots of it, on this and on that. I'm gonna put you in touch with people, not just any people, I'm going to put you in touch with Attorney General of the United States, my attorney general, Bill Barr. He's got the whole weight of the American law enforcement behind him. And I'm gonna put you in touch with Rudy, you're going to love Him, trust me. You know what I'm asking. And so I'm only going to say this a few more times, in a few more ways. And by the way, don't call me again, I'll call you when you've done what I asked. This is, in some in character, what the President was trying to communicate with the President of Ukraine. It would be funny if it wasn't such a graphic betrayal of the President's oath of office. But as it does represent a real betrayal, there's nothing the President says here that is in America's interest, after all. 1:14:40 Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH): While the chairman was speaking I actually had someone text me, "Is he just making this up?" And yes, yes he was. Because sometimes fiction is better than the actual words or the texts. But luckily the American public are smart and they have the transcript, they've read the conversation, they know when someone's just making it up. 1:19:45 Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): In my summary, the President's call was meant to be at least part in parody. The fact that that's not clear is a separate problem in and of itself. Of course, the president never said, "If you don't understand me, I'm gonna say seven more times." My point is, that's the message that the Ukraine president was receiving, in not so many words. September 17, 2019 Morning Joe on MSNBC Clips Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): We have not spoken directly with the whistleblower. We would like to. But I'm sure the whistleblower has concerns that he has not been advised as the law requires by the Inspector General or the Director of National Intelligence, just as to how he is to communicate with Congress. And so the risk of the whistleblower is retaliation. Will the whistleblower be protected under the statute if the offices that are supposed to come to his assistance and provide the mechanism are unwilling to do so? But yes, we would love to talk directly with the whistleblower. March 28, 2019 CNN with Chris Cuomo Clips Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): One, there's ample evidence of collusion in plain sight and that is true. And second, that is not the same thing as whether Bob Muller would be able to prove beyond a reasonable doubt the crime of conspiracy. There's a difference between there being evidence of collusion and proof beyond reasonable doubt of a crime. March 24, 2019 This Week with George Stephanopoulos Clips George Stephenopolous: You have said though in the past there is significant evidence of collusion. How do you square that with Robert Muller's decision not to indict anyone. Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): There is significant evidence of collusion, and we've set that out time and time again, from the secret meetings in Trump Tower to the conversations between Flynn and the Russian ambassador, to the providing of polling data to someone linked to Russian intelligence, and Stone's conversation with WikiLeaks and the GRU through -- George Stephenopolous: None of it prosecuted. Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): Well that's true. And as I pointed out on your show many times, there's a difference between compelling evidence of collusion and whether the Special Counsel concludes that he can prove beyond a reasonable doubt the criminal charge of conspiracy. Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): We need to be able to see any evidence that this President, or people around him, may be compromised by a foreign power. We've of course seen all kinds of disturbing indications that this President has a relationship with Putin that is very difficult to justify or explain. Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): It's our responsibility to tell the American people, "These are the facts. This is what your president has done. This is what his key campaign and appointees have done. These are the issues that we need to take action on." This is potential compromise. There is evidence, for example, quite in the public realm that the President sought to make money from the Russians, sought the Kremlin's help to make money during the presidential campaign, while denying business ties with the Russians. February 17, 2019 CNN with Dana Bash Clips Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): Look, you can see evidence in plain sight on the issue of collusion, pretty compelling evidence. Now, there's a difference between seeing evidence of collusion and being able to prove a criminal conspiracy beyond a reasonable doubt. August 5, 2018 Face the Nation Clips Margaret Brennan: Can you agree that there has been no evidence of collusion, coordination, or conspiracy that has been presented thus far between the Trump campaign and Russia? Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): No, I don't agree with that at all. I think there's plenty of evidence of collusion or conspiracy in plain sight. December 10, 2017 CNN Clips Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): But we do know this: the Russians offered help, the campaign accepted help. The Russians gave help and the President made full use of that help, and that is pretty damning whether it is proof beyond a reasonable doubt of conspiracy or not. November 1, 2017 MSNBC Clips Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): What is clear as this: the Kremlin repeatedly told the campaign it had dirt on Clinton and offered to help it and at least one top Trump official, the President's own son, accepted. Rachel Maddow: The Kremlin offered dirt to the Trump campaign. The President's campaign said yes to that offer. That's no longer an open question. All that stuff has now been proven and admitted to. Adam Schiff, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee today, using his time today, using his opening statement today to walk through -- ding ding ding, point by point -- what we've already learned in black and white, in written correspondence and public statements and in freaking court filings, about all the times the Trump campaign was offered helped by Russia to influence our election and all the times the Trump campaign said "Yes, please." March 23, 2017 The View Clips Jedediah Bila: Congressman, you made yesterday what some are deeming a provocative statement by saying that there is more than circumstantial evidence now that the Trump camp colluded with Russia. Senator John McCain was critical of that, others have been critical of that. Can you defend that statement? Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): Yes. And I, you know, I don't view it as the same bombshell that apparently they did. Look, I've said that I thought there was circumstantial evidence of collusion or coordination, and that there was direct evidence of deception. And no one had an issue with that. And I don't think anyone really contested that, on the basis of the information we keep getting, I can say, in my opinion, it's now not purely circumstantial. We had the FBI Director testify in open session about this, acknowledge an FBI investigation. Obviously, this is now public. And I think it's fair to say that that FBI investigation is justified, that that wouldn't be done on the basis of not credible allegations. And so I think it's appropriate to talk in general terms about the evidence, but I don't think it's appropriate for us to go into specifics and say, "This is what we know from this piece of classified information," or "this what we know from this witness." But I do think, in this investigation where the public is hungry for information, it is important that we try to keep the public in the loop. That's why we're having public hearings. March 22, 2017 MSNBC Clips Chuck Todd: You have seen direct evidence of collusion? Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): I don't want to go into specifics, but I will say that there is evidence that is not circumstantial. March 19, 2017 Meet the Press Clips Chuck Todd: Collusion is sort of what hasn't been proven here between whatever the Russians did and the Trump campaign. In fact, the former Acting Director of the CIA, who was Mike Morell, who was a supporter of Hillary Clinton, he essentially reminded people and took Director Clapper at his word on this show who said, there has been no evidence that has been found of collusion. Are we at the point of -- at what point do you start to wonder if there is a fire to all this smoke? Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA): Well, first of all, I was surprised to see Director Clapper say that because I don't think you can make that claim categorically as he did. I would characterize it this way at the outset of the investigation: there is circumstantial evidence of collusion. There is direct evidence, I think, of deception.

Hour 2 -  Good Wednesday morning! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: Starbucks vs. Starbucks union. Will we see articles of impeachment for Biden? Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) grilled FBI Deputy Director earlier this week. Hawley asked if anyone was fired for the violations of Trump team member Carter Page's civil rights when the FBI presented false information in their affidavit to get a FISA warrant to surveil him. What does Abbate say? There's an “ongoing disciplinary process concerning individuals involved in that.”

The results of the Durham Investigation was finally released and said the FBI should never have launched their initial investigation into Donald Trump nor spied on him. In it, they made no arrests, despite a mountain of evidence of impropriety from the Clinton Campaign.  The Durham Investigation proves that at the very least the entire Russian Collusion story was false and baseless, and at worst the Clinton Campaign and DNC committed treason for which the penalty is, lest I remind you, death. Joe Biden and Obama also signed off on the intelligence used as a pretext to spy on their political rival. The result? This will divide the American population still further, excite both bases, and turn everything up to 11 approaching 2024. And guess who started it all? #hillaryclinton donaldtrump #durhaminvestigation DIRECT DONATION LINK (See your comment appear live): https://streamlabs.com/johnnymassacre

After four long, painstaking years, the Durham investigation is complete. John Durham taught us one thing for sure…Democrats always win. The left can spy on presidential candidates, weaponize the justice system, invent crimes, spread hoaxes, and get Republicans thrown in jail for no reason. And they'll always get away with it. Three pathetic indictments. One pitiful conviction. Nobody fired or reprimanded. A colossal failure. John Durham should be embarrassed. Yes he exposed the biggest political scandal in history, but he failed at his job, which is “prosecuting” crimes. Ironically, the bombshell report he released this week is a huge win for the establishment. Durham proved beyond doubt that the ‘Deep State' is real. Yet he prosecuted merely three people, none of whom we have ever heard of, and two were acquitted. Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page, Brennan, Hillary, Mueller, Rosenstein, Jim Baker, Andrew the Pitbull, and yes…Obama and Biden…conspired to spy on Trump and accuse him of colluding with Russia. None has been charged with so much as jaywalking, and none were fired as a result of the probe. As always, the leftist establishment got away with it. They won. We lost. The biggest takeaway from the Durham probe was…wait for it..a REPORT! Not just any report. A damning report. Are we supposed to celebrate? Here are the indisputable facts: There has never been a shred of evidence that Trump colluded with Russia The Clinton campaign was behind the entire Russia hoax The fake Steele Dossier, upon which virtually the entire Russia hoax was based, was paid for by Hillary's campaign The FBI lied repeatedly to the courts to obtain a warrant to spy on a presidential campaign The convictions of General Michael Flynn and George Papadapolous would never have happened, had there not been an investigation. They were ‘process crimes' manufactured by the anti-Trump FBI. The Mueller probe was initially led by Stzrok and Page, until it was discovered that they are rabid leftists who despise Trump James Comey admitted under oath that he assured Trump on three separate occasions that he was not a subject of the Russia investigation. Trump urged Comey to make a public declaration, yet Comey repeatedly refused. That led to Trump firing Comey, which prompted the appointment of Mueller. Can you blame Trump for firing Comey? Would any of us have done differently? Carter Page, the Trump staffer who was spied on by the FBI because of Russia ties, was known to be a CIA asset. Although the FBI was aware of this, attorney Kevin Clinesmith altered an email to hide this fact from the FISA court, to obtain a warrant to spy British intelligence officials were unwilling to aid in the Russia hoax, because they knew that it was “devoid of predicating evidence.” Former Intel officials, including CIA Director John Brennan, promoted the bogus Russia collusion narrative, despite knowing there was no evidence While long forgotten, Trump was mocked and ridiculed in 2017 when he revealed he was wiretapped at Trump Tower. It turns out, that was the small tip of a very large iceberg. When Trump threatened to fire Bob Mueller, he was accused of obstruction. He was compared to Nixon. It turns out, he would have been 100% correct to do so. It would have saved millions of wasted taxpayer dollars and endless heartache. In fact, some people believe that the reason Mueller was appointed in the first place, was an effort to lure Trump into firing him, which then would have been used by Pelosi to impeach Trump. However he did not take the bait. Amazingly, at the time the Russia hoax investigation was ongoing, some “conservative” pundits insisted that we should let the probe play out, and allow Mueller to finish the job. While many of us were screaming from the rooftops that the entire thing was a Deep State witch-hunt, others said that we should “stay the course”. Now some of those same people have turned into ‘Monday morning quarterbacks'. They are doing high-fives, and essentially saying “See! We knew it was a hoax all along.” They did the same thing with Covid, the Hunter Biden laptop, and other scandals. Yet what is most astonishing, is that right now, other hoaxes are taking place. Trump is still being indicted on bogus charges. The Deep State is still weaponizing the justice system, targeting good people like Elon Musk and others. Some people are brave enough to speak the truth–not years later when John Durham gives them permission. But early on, when it's unpopular. When it can get them banned from Youtube and Facebook for ‘disinformation'. We need to call out the swamp, and prevent them from targeting and destroying anyone who does not support their narrative. Otherwise, we may all eventually find ourselves in the crosshairs of the ‘Deep State'.

Just like House, this episode comes with a cold open and it might just have a hint for mystery later in the episode! Rachel S. Bernstein of the Channing Salon podcast joins us for an episode where House meets an old nemesis: a disease that killed an old lady years before the show started. Except now it's affecting a kid played by Russiagate mini-boss Carter Page and also everyone is dressed all pretty because there's a casino fundraiser going on.

But you'll have to listen to hear it.

Earlier this week, Elon Musk confirmed that Twitter deputy general counsel and former FBI general counsel James Baker had been “exited” from the company. He'd reportedly been “vetting” the first batch of internal Twitter files before their release to independent journalists Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss. While he was at the FBI, Baker played a key role in the Russia collusion probe, including the FISA warrant to surveil then-Trump 2016 presidential campaign aide Carter Page. “James Baker was the one running blocking-and-tackle campaigns at the FBI to prevent the disclosure of documents we lawfully subpoenaed from Congress … Fast forward … he was running the same operation that he ran as FBI General Counsel inside of Twitter HQ,” says Kash Patel. It has also now been revealed that the FBI had regular meetings with Twitter (and other tech giants) in the lead-up to the 2020 elections. Were these authorized directly by then-Attorney General Bill Barr and FBI director Christopher Wray? “I want to know every contract the FBI has with Twitter,” says Patel. “I believe that they do have working-level engagement agreements with Twitter. And those need to be made public. Are taxpayer dollars funding part of this censorship scheme?” Musk should release all the Twitter censorship files without redactions, Patel says, and he should also fire Perkins Coie, which was still representing Twitter as late as Dec. 6, according to court documents. ⭕️Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

But who will investigate the investigators? John Durham, as it turns out. And what will he find? F*ck all. Trump tried to have his own Mueller Probe to get to the bottom of all the deep state corruption that must have led to the Russia Investigation only to find that there wasn't any of that. But the whole affair was a massive corruption of justice that has not been covered enough. Get the full OA breakdown!

But the FBI long valued him, Review of Four FISA Applications, Igor Danchenko Indictment

Donald Trump's presidency was completely sidelined due to an opposition party spying operation initiated by his predecessor and carried out by the Democratic Party and the Hillary Clinton campaign. That is what happened! Obama's FBI abused the FISA process and with no predicate, initiated a surveillance operation on Carter Page for speaking with Russians on behalf of the CIA, with the FBI's full knowledge. This is a crime and it can be proven, but because Republicans are inept and our media has sold out, we will likely never get to hold those accountable who perpetrated these treasonous acts on our carefully safeguarded civil liberties.

"Operation Crossfire Hurricane", or as it is colloquially known "Russia-gate", seem to be the gift that keeps on giving. Six years after its inception and still it keeps making the news. This time it is a lawsuit filed by Carter Page, an information advisor to the Donald Trump campaign. Recently, a District Court judge for the District of Columbia has dismissed Mr. Page's case. The reasons why are both interesting and informative, making it worth taking a closer look at.

After six years of dragging America through the Russia Pee Tape Hoax, one of the key sources for the fabricated anti-Trump Steele dossier is on trial for lying to the FBI (which also lied to get warrants to spy on Trump's campaign). The Associated Press reports: A Russian analyst who played a major role in the creation of a flawed dossier about former President Donald Trump fabricated one of his own sources and concealed the identity of another when interviewed by the FBI, prosecutors said Tuesday. The allegations were aired during opening statements in the trial of Igor Danchenko, who is indicted on five counts of making false statements to the FBI. The FBI interviewed Danchenko on multiple occasions in 2017 as it tried to corroborate allegations in what became known as the “Steele dossier.” That dossier by British spy Christopher Steele — commissioned by Democrats during the 2016 presidential campaign — included allegations of contact between the Trump campaign and Russian government officials, as well as allegations that the Russians may have held compromising information over Trump in the form of videos showing him engaged in salacious sexual activity in a Moscow hotel. Meanwhile, FOX News reports that the FBI tried to pay Steele $1 million to corroborate the details in the dossier, and this attempt occurred last year. FBI supervisory counterintelligence analyst Brian Auten was the first witness in the trial of Igor Danchenko, the Russian national who served as the primary sub-source for Steele's anti-Trump dossier and has been charged with five counts of making false statements to the bureau. Auten testified that he and a group of FBI agents went overseas in early October 2021 to speak with Steele about the dossier. During questioning by Special Counsel John Durham on Tuesday, Auten said that during those meetings the FBI offered Steele $1 million if he could corroborate allegations in the dossier. Auten testified that Steele could not do so. Auten also said that the FBI had no corroboration of allegations in the dossier but nevertheless took that information and inserted it into the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant to surveil former Trump campaign aide Carter Page.    Get exclusive content here!: https://thepetekalinershow.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

FOX News reports that an FBI official testified that the FBI offered Christopher Steele $1 million to corroborate anti-Trump dirt. The FBI agent said Steele couldn't do that. However, the FBI obtained a FISA warrant anyway to spy on Trump campaign aide Carter Page. The Left and the mainstream media have run with the Russia Hoax ever since. The Left keeps crying about the danger that Trump and "MAGA Republicans" poses to democracy. Isn't the greater danger to democracy from a weaponized and politicized FBI?

Hour 1 -  Good Monday morning! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: Over a one-week period, both Donald Trump and Carter Page saw federal judges dismiss their separate lawsuits alleging improper conduct by the FBI, Hillary Clinton, and others during the Russia collusion investigation. The back-to-back dismissals shine a particularly harsh light on what critics say has become a pattern in the aftermath of the Trump-Russia probe: a lack of accountability. President Biden's DOJ is proposing that a federal judge appoint a Democratic donor and former judge to serve as special master in the Trump Mar-a-Lago investigation. Russian police arrested five people who proposed officials arrest and charge Vladimir Putin with treason for his decision to launch the invasion of Ukraine, which has led to catastrophic outcomes for Russia and its interests. A new book claims that Sen. Mitt Romney urged Joe Biden to run against then President Donald Trump.

On this episode, Ben sits down with the Host of The Host Re-Education Podcast and a Fellow at the Clements Center for National Security at The University of Texas at Austin, Eli Lake.   Ben and Eli discuss the state of the FBI, not just regarding the Mar-a-Lago raid, but also a larger conversation about why the Bureau has lost some credibility. They lay out how partisanship of some rank-and-file members has affected major decisions involving political actors. Eli gives a background on a history of actions from the FISA warrant on Carter Page, the Steele Dossier, former FBI Director James Comey's handling of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server, and the Russia collusion investigation. Later, Ben gives his nuanced outlook on why, at the moment, fortunes look better for Democrats than they did earlier in the summer. Follow Ben on Twitter: @BDomenech Learn more about your ad choices.

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON AUGUST 10, 2022 The FBI is dissolving before our eyes into a rogue security service akin to those in Eastern Europe during the Cold War. Take the FBI's deliberately asymmetrical application of the law. This week the bureau surprise-raided the home of former President Donald Trump — an historical first. A massive phalanx of FBI agents swooped into the Trump residence while he was not home, to confiscate his personal property, safe, and records. All of this was over an archival dispute of presidential papers common to many former presidents. Agents swarmed the entire house, including the wardrobe closet of the former first lady. Note we are less than 90 days out from a midterm election, and this was not just a raid, but a political act. The Democratic Party is anticipated to suffer historical losses. Trump was on the verge of announcing his 2024 presidential candidacy. In many polls, he remains the Republican front-runner for the nomination — and well ahead of incumbent President Joe Biden in a putative 2024 rematch. In 2016 then FBI Director James Comey announced that candidate Hillary Clinton was guilty of destroying subpoenaed emails — a likely felony pertaining to her tenure as secretary of state. Yet he all but pledged that she would not be prosecuted given her status as a presidential candidate. As far as targeting presidential candidates, Trump was impeached in 2020 ostensibly for delaying military aid to Ukraine by asking Ukrainian officials to investigate more fully the clearly corrupt Biden family — given Joe Biden at the time was a likely possible presidential opponent in 2020. The FBI has devolved into a personal retrieval service for the incorrigible Biden family. It suppressed, for political purposes, information surrounding Hunter Biden's missing laptop on the eve of the 2020 election. Previously, the FBI never pursued Hunter's fraudulently registered firearm, his mysterious foreign income, his felonious crack cocaine use, or his regular employment of foreign prostitutes. Yet in a pre-dawn raid just before the 2020 election, the FBI targeted the home of journalist James O'Keefe on grounds that someone had passed to him the lost and lurid diary of Ashley Biden, Biden's wayward daughter. At various times, in Stasi-style the FBI has publicly shackled Trump economic advisor Peter Navarro, swarmed the office of Trump's legal counsel Rudy Giuliani, and sent a SWAT team to surround the house of Trump ally Roger Stone. Meanwhile, terrorists and cartels walk with impunity across an open border. FBI Director Christopher Wray last week cut short his evasive testimony before Congress. He claimed he had to leave for a critical appointment — only to use his FBI Gulfstream luxury jet to fly to his favorite vacation spot in the Adirondacks. Wray took over from disgraced interim FBI Director Andrew McCabe. The latter admitted lying repeatedly to federal investigators and signed off on a fraudulent FBI FISA application. He faced zero legal consequences. McCabe, remember, was also the point man in the softball Hillary Clinton email investigation — while his wife was a political candidate and recipient of thousands of dollars from a political action committee with close ties to the Clinton family. McCabe took over from disgraced FBI Director James Comey. On 245 occasions, Comey claimed under oath before the House Intelligence Committee that he had no memory or knowledge of key questions concerning his tenure. With impunity, he leaked confidential FBI memos to the media. Comey took over from Director Robert Mueller. Implausibly, Mueller swore under oath that he had no knowledge, either of the Steele dossier or of Fusion GPS, the firm that commissioned Christopher Steele to compile the dossier. But those were the very twin catalysts that had prompted his entire special investigation into the Russian collusion hoax. FBI legal counsel Kevin Clinesmith was convicted of a felony for altering an FBI warrant request to spy on an innocent Carter Page. The FBI, by Comey's own public boasts, bragged how it caught National Security Advisor designate General Michael Flynn in its Crossfire Hurricane Russian collusion hoax. As special counsel, Mueller then fired two of his top investigators — Lisa Page and Peter Strzok — for improper personal and professional behavior. He then staggered their releases to mask their collaborative wrongdoing. Mueller's team deleted critical cell phone evidence under subpoena that might well have revealed systemic FBI-related bias. The FBI interferes with and warps national elections. It hires complete frauds as informants who are far worse than its targets. It humiliates or exempts government and elected officials based on their politics. It violates the civil liberties of individual American citizens. The FBI's highest officials now routinely mislead Congress. They have erased or altered court and subpoenaed evidence. They illegally leak confidential material to the media. And they have lied under oath to federal investigators. The agency has become dangerous to Americans and an existential threat to their democracy and rule of law. The FBI should be dispersing its investigatory responsibilities to other government investigative agencies that have not yet lost the public's trust. ——- ABOUT THE WRITER ——– (Victor Davis Hanson is a distinguished fellow of the Center for American Greatness.

It's a must-read that every person, religious and non-religious, should buy and peruse every night before bed. It'll make you think harder, pray more ardently, and understand your civilization better." — Ben Shapiro, host of "The Ben Shapiro Show" "Dennis Prager's commentary on Exodus will rank among the greatest modern Torah commentaries. That is how important I think it is. And I am clearly not alone... It might well be on its way to becoming the most widely read Torah commentary of our time—and by non-Jews as well as by Jews." — Rabbi Joseph Telushkin, bestselling author of Jewish Literacy Why do so many people think the Bible, the most influential book in world history, is outdated? Why do our friends and neighbors – and sometimes we ourselves – dismiss the Bible as irrelevant, irrational, immoral, or all of these things? This explanation of the Book of Exodus, the second book of the Bible, will demonstrate that the Bible is not only powerfully relevant to today's issues, but completely consistent with rational thought. Do you think the Bible permitted the trans-Atlantic slave trade? You won't after reading this book. Do you struggle to love your parents? If you do, you need this book. Do you doubt the existence of God because belief in God is “irrational?” This book will give you reason after reason to rethink your doubts. The title of this commentary is, “The Rational Bible” because its approach is entirely reason-based. The reader is never asked to accept anything on faith alone. As Prager says, “If something I write does not make rational sense, I have not done my job.” The Rational Bible is the fruit of Dennis Prager's forty years of teaching the Bible to people of every faith, and no faith. On virtually every page, you will discover how the text relates to the contemporary world and to your life. His goal: to change your mind – and then change your life.   Highly Recommended by ACU.

This explanation of the Book of Genesis, the first book of the Bible, demonstrates clearly and powerfully that the opposite is true. The Bible remains profoundly relevant—both to the great issues of our day and to each individual life. It is the greatest moral guide and source of wisdom ever written. Do you doubt the existence of God because you think believing in God is irrational? This book will give you many reasons to rethink your doubts. Do you think faith and science are in conflict? You won't after reading this commentary on Genesis. Do you come from a dysfunctional family? It may comfort you to know that every family discussed in Genesis was highly dysfunctional! The title of this commentary is “The Rational Bible” because its approach is entirely reason-based. The reader is never asked to accept anything on faith alone. In Dennis Prager's words, “If something I write is not rational, I have not done my job.” The Rational Bible is the fruit of Dennis Prager's forty years of teaching the Bible—whose Hebrew grammar and vocabulary he has mastered—to people of every faith and no faith at all. On virtually every page, you will discover how the text relates to the contemporary world in general and to you personally. His goal: to change your mind—and, as a result, to change your life.

THE THESIS: The FBI is attacking a movement, the effort of emphasize that un-elected functionaries not in charge and to right-size the relationship between the people and what's supposed be be our employees. The proof of that comes from the FBI itself.  James Comey said about Hillary Clinton's thousands of National Security felonies--the same type of offense the FBI claims caused the surprise raid--”no reasonable prosecutor would pursue charges.” So, by Comey's definition, the FBI is unreasonably hoping to find and unreasonable prosecutor to unreasonable file charges against Donald Trump. But, Hillary, Susan Rice and Huma Abedin, all of whom illegally handled and transferred Top Secret and Classified information, are members in good standing of The Party, so they get shielded by the Party. The FBI is attacking you.  THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  Matthew 5:43-48  Love for Enemies 43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect. Bible verses about favoritism God will punish the wicked THE NEWS & COMMENT: Of course it's not “just” President Trump the FBI is attacking. They are going after a movement.  BREAKING: FBI Confiscates Cell Phone Of Republican Congressman And, it's not just Democrats and the FBI, it's The Party. This is yet another example of why use that phrase. The 20 Republican Senators Who Voted To Confirm Merrick Garland Owe America An Apology The Rule of Law from a man who swims in corruption  [AUDIO] -  CHUCK SCHUMER on the FBI raiding President Trump's home: “The rule of the law, the protection of democracy is a key issue here.” No answer from Chuck's dear, DEAR friend, the senior Senator from pharma [AUDIO] - Mitch McConnell (R-KY) doesn't answer the question about the FBI's search of Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence. Time Young makes the point beautifully and clearly  Kevin McCarthy, who bats 0% at actually doing anything to confront The Party, who is dear, DEAR friends with Liz Cheney and Nancy Pelosi is all pistol grease and no weapon McCarthy talks tough Cruze does better, but where is the legislation, Senator? Are you still convinced Jan 6 was an insurrection? Cruz make a Twitter thread, which is quite good DeSantis nailed it on one tweet: “The raid of MAL is another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies against the Regime's political opponents, while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves. Now the Regime is getting another 87k IRS agents to wield against its adversaries? Banana Republic.” We will be wise to heed what our friend from Legal Insurrection says: Professor Jacobson: “This is a provocation. They are trying to get a reaction that allows a further crackdown. Don't take the bait.” This is obviously a campaign ad with being labeled as such. It's dark and foreboding and it's all true, all of it [AUDIO] - Here's what President Trump posted on Truth Social Here's an email I got from Alex, a very friendly, gentlemanly, smart, creative, kind and super wealthy man who has made an enormous fortune in Washington, D.C. Alex and I have since corresponded on this and he sees my point I address in the Podcast.  “hello.  it's been a while. where are we now, after the FBI raid on Mar-a-lago?  i hope you will allow me to point you to an important piece written by my friend, mark halperin.  you will find it here:  Prosecutorial Discretion in it, Mark notes… We are not headed to civil war, we are in one. In this, Trump has already won. He has forced the Federal government to urgently defend itself from half of its own people by trying to take out the leader of those people. He has forced The Trump Party to secede from the Federal government as its way forward. Trump has broken us. That the damn pundits are still talking endlessly about the price of gas and bacon (as painful as those are for America's working families) proves we are just the walking dead and still don't know it. Until everyone admits openly that Trump has won, that the country is truly broken, that we cannot fix it by usual means, everything will just get worse.

Trump did not request that Raffensperger “find 11,780 votes.” Period. It never happened. [AUDIO] - Remember when Jimmy Comey exonerated Hillary while admitting Hillary committed National Security felonies?  Remember this?  Two of 4 warrants letting FBI spy on ex-Trump aide Carter Page were not valid, says DOJ; The DOJ now believes it didn't have probable cause to think Carter Page might be acting as an agent of a foreign power, which was required to surveil him.

FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Timothy Thibault, a name previously unknown to most SpyGate sleuths, was recently brought to the public's attention through some astonishing revelations from Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa). Politically motivated activism by Thibault included the shutting down of an investigation into Hunter Biden in October 2020. Thibault did so by labeling information relating to Hunter as false information—even though many of the details were known to be accurate at the time. Grassley said that Thibault's Democratic National Committee (DNC) partisanship had “impacted his official decision-making on sensitive public corruption investigations” and had “likely affected investigations briefed to, and approved by, senior Justice Department and FBI officials.” But there was another new piece of information within Grassley's disclosures that's been bothering us of late: Thibault's association and interaction with Bruce and Nellie Ohr in Prague. Grassley disclosed that Thibault, “while overseeing and directing the FBI's most significant federal public corruption investigations, traveled to the Czech Republic to attend the same seminar with Bruce and Nellie Ohr in late February 2016.” As we shall see, that trip to Prague was more integrated and potentially much more significant than Grassley's letter has indicated. Grassley rightly observed that, at the time of the trip, Nellie Ohr was employed by Fusion GPS, working to fabricate anti-Trump propaganda for use by the Hillary Clinton campaign and DNC, and she was also involved in the fake Alfa-Bank narrative. Her husband Bruce Ohr, a senior DOJ official, was instrumental in pushing the Steele dossier, along with information from Glenn Simpson, into the FBI, and he maintained close contact with Steele until November 2017. Of particular note is the fact that in the days that followed the February 2016 Czech conference, the FBI's New York field office suddenly requested permission to open an investigation into Carter Page. ⭕️Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

Correction: At 07:45 I incorrectly stated US Capitol Police deployed frag grenades on protesters, whereas the Capitol Police stun grenaded peaceful protester who then became agitated. "OMG" Does anyone remember "consider the source"? Asking Mary McCord about terrorism is the joke of the century.  The hack authors at CTC West Point failed at doing their homework.  Mary McCord reviewed and approved the fraudulent FISA application against Carter Page. (Retired Naval Intelligence officer Carter Page assisted the CIA--only to have Kevin Clinesmith throw him under the bus to get the treasonous Russia hoax going.) McCord went on to help Clinesmith free himself from the FISC judge Boasberg. When did we start allowing co-conspirators to represent fellow criminals? Hunch: when Washington DC decided it was its own self-contained Marxist State...  The bottom line is that America is a train wreck because of people like Mary McCord and idiots at CTC just handed Mary the microphone. Stop listening to these liars.

A few weeks ago, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released the latest FISA transparency data. It was notable in at least two major respects: the continued decline of traditional Title I FISA applications—that is, warrants for individual surveillance—and separately, the rather large number of U.S. persons who had been searched under so-called 702 surveillance. To discuss the news, the data and what it all means, Benjamin Wittes sat down on Lawfare Live with Carrie Cordero of the Center for a New American Security and Adam Klein of the Strauss Center at the University of Texas. They talked about the 702 number. Is it really big, or does it just seem big? They talked about what's causing the decline in traditional FISA, about whether reforms in the wake of the Carter Page debacle have gone too far, and they talked about where it is all going from here.

This episode is a must-watch and is one of the most fascinating discussions we have had on the ELECTile Dysfunction Podcast. Ashton is joined by Former FBI Supervisory Special Agent Todd Hulsey. Todd spent over 20 years in the FBI, where he oversaw investigations and operations directed at foreign intelligence services and some of the largest drug trafficking organizations in the world. Todd also worked in the CIA and served as the chief of the Weapons of Mass Destruction Counterproliferation Unit.Ashton and Todd have a wide-ranging and compelling discussion as they examine some of the most crucial geopolitical and domestic issues, such as: How and why War on Drugs failed? How the Mexican Cartels became so powerful and what can the US & Mexican Governments do to defeat them? What are the most overblown and underblown Nation Security threats? What mistakes were made in the war in Afghanistan and Iraq? How worried should we be about Iran and how close is that country to developing a functional Nuclear weapon? Has the FBI become corrupt and/or overtly partisan? What is Todd's perspective on the FBI's unlawful spying on Carter Page and the Trump campaign? And much more.You can learn more about Todd by visiting his website: https://fbiretired.com/agent/hulsey-todd/Subscribe to Ashton Cohen: ELECTile Dysfunction Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ashton-cohen-the-electile-dysfunction-podcast/id1565208599Subscribe to Ashton Cohen: ELECTile Dysfunction Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6siXVSwM2OWz3itH90YRNA?si=v5MUMEpwTSG_sVGPOKHP8wSubscribe to Ashton's channel on Youtube: youtube.com/c/ashtoncohenFollow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/theashtoncohenFollow on TikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZM8nQjHta/Follow on Instagram: instagram.com/theashtoncohenFollow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theAshtonCohen

We break down the beginnings of the two campaigns to elect Donald Trump: one run out of Trump Tower, and the other run out of the Kremlin. From the moment Trump announced he was running for president, he was unabashedly pro-Russia. It made no sense. Until we learned that throughout the campaign, the Trump Organization was actively seeking to develop a Trump Tower in Moscow. In this episode of The Asset, host Max Bergmann, the director of The Moscow Project, an initiative of the Center for American Progress Action Fund, details the early connections between the two campaigns. Trump surrounded himself with shady actors with ties to the Kremlin, including his campaign chairman Paul Manafort, national security adviser Michael Flynn, and campaign aides George Papadopoulos and Carter Page. Lastly, the episode breaks down the beginning of the Russian campaign to elect Donald Trump and the origins of its online efforts. Russia created an online army online designed to poison American discourse on social media and advance Trump's campaign. The Russian efforts worked like a political campaign and we will break down their impact on the 2016 election.

Join us as we go through the murky world of Russian intelligence. In Vladimir Putin's Russia, the old-style KGB tactics didn't go away. Instead, the Russian intelligence apparatus has been empowered. This episode goes through the story of the Russian “illegals” spy ring operating in the U.S., examining the back story of these deep cover Russian agents who would later become the inspiration for the hit television series “The Americans”. We also show how one of the American men recruited by a Russian spy, Carter Page, eventually rose up to become one of Trump's initial foreign policy advisors.In this episode of The Asset, host Max Bergmann, the director of The Moscow Project, an initiative of the Center for American Progress Action Fund, shows how Russia sought to infiltrate and cultivate the far right movement in the United States, locking in on guns and the NRA as the most effective way to do so. It breaks down the story of Maria Butina, a Russian agent currently behind bars.This episode also hones in on Donald Trump's reemergence on the political scene with his embrace of the birther conspiracy theory and shows how that conspiracy mirrors the same sorts of disinformation campaigns that Soviet and Russian intelligence love to push.Lastly, the episode breaks down the idea of kompromat and examines Trump's 2013 Miss Universe Pageant in Moscow. This isn't just the trip where that infamous tape took place. It is also where Trump once again was seeking to do business in Russia.The Asset tells the full story of Trump and Russia. Each week, we will examine the colorful characters and dirty deals that populate the story of how Russia helped the son of a shady real estate mogul became President of the United States.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
