514. Casey Michel - Foreign Agent Lobbyists are Acting as Foot-Soldiers for Brutal Authoritarian Regimes

Silicon Curtain

For years, one group of Americans has worked as foot-soldiers for the most authoritarian regimes around the planet. In the process, they've not only entrenched dictatorships and spread kleptocratic networks, but they've secretly guided U.S. policy without the rest of America even being aware. And now, journalist Casey Michel contends some of them have begun turning their sights on American democracy itself. These Americans are known as foreign lobbyists, and many of them spent years ushering dictatorships directly into the halls of Washington, all while laundering the reputations of the most heinous, repressive regimes in the process. Many of these lobbyists have transformed into proxies for dictators and strongmen wherever they can be found. And for years, they've escaped scrutiny. These lobbyists include figures like Ivy Lee, the inventor of the public relations industry - a man who whitewashed Mussolini, opened doors to the Soviets, and advised the Nazis on how to sway American audiences. They include people like Paul Manafort, who invented lobbying as we know it - and who then took his talents to autocrats from Ukraine to the Philippines, and then back to the White House. And they now include an increasing number of Americans elsewhere: in law firms and consultancies, among PR specialists and former lawmakers, and even within think tanks and universities. ---------- Casey Michel is head of the Combating Kleptocracy Program at the Human Rights Foundation, focusing on how dictators and autocrats use illicit finance and dirty money to remain in power. He's the author of AMERICAN KLEPTOCRACY, on America's transformation into an offshore haven. His new book, FOREIGN AGENTS, will examine the explosion of the foreign lobbying industry in Washington, and how that industry has helped entrench dictatorships and upend American foreign policy. FOREIGN AGENTS will be published in 2024. ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- LINKS: http://www.caseymichel.com/ https://x.com/cjcmichel https://www.linkedin.com/in/caseymichel/ https://www.rusi.org/people/michel https://www.hudson.org/experts/1381-casey-michel ---------- BOOKS: https://read.macmillan.com/lp/american-kleptocracy/ American Kleptocracy: How the U.S. Created the World's Greatest Money Laundering Scheme in History (2021) Foreign Agents: How American Lobbyists and Lawmakers Threaten Democracy Around the World (2024) ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Today's episode opens with Tara's Top 10 news items the Legacy/mainstream media likely didn't bring to you or didn't cover in full over the past week. Normally, I bring this to you on Friday, but since I was filling-in on The Erick Erickson Show, I added it to today instead. Next, Donald Trump is suing the DOJ for $100M for their unconstitutional raid of Mar-a-Lago. Julie Kelly, who is a tremendous resource on court cases involving the government, gives us an overview of the case and the history of it. Over the weekend, Joe Biden told CBS News he decided to withdraw from the election because he was told he would hurt the down-ballot races. So much for your “democracy” if that's what they are trying to sell you. By the way, the reason Biden is sticking to his drop-out narrative is being reinforced by a Romanian oligarch suddenly working with the DOJ on Hunter Biden acting as a Foreign Agent while not being registered as one. The FARA charges are hanging in front of Joe Biden to keep him in line. In breaking news, three whistleblowers recently spoke to independent investigative journalist Catherine Herridge. According to them, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is not following the law by making sure all illegals are given a DNA test to see if they are violent criminals or known problems across international law enforcement databases. After three weeks of calling Governor Tim Walz's (D-MN) committing of Stolen Valor a hoax, a lie or a conspiracy theory, it seems the Left decided they needed to call it a one-time misstep. Unfortunately, we have way too many instances of Walz misrepresenting his rank and his involvement in a war zone. So, to educate the listener, I bring you at least a half instances of his Stolen Valor. The Legacy/mainstream media is going to have a problem thanks to Kamala Harris's newest promise she is making on the campaign trail. After mocking Trump for his push to stop taxing tips on those in the service industry, all of a sudden, this is part of the Harris platform. Isn't it interesting how Harris is running on the same promises as Donald Trump? In some ways, isn't this Harris v. Harris given all that has happened in the last 3 ½ years under the Harris-Biden regime? And, if she is saying she wants to do the same things as Trump, why not just vote for the person who also has the track record of doing those things? As we close, I bring you the 20 Core Promises Trump is telling Americans he wants to implement if elected. It's good to have these specifics in mind when you engage with others. And, to show how important it is to have some of those agenda items at your disposal, we hear from the former wife of Muhammad Ali.

In December 2023, Georgia was granted official European Union candidate status, but the country's path to EU membership may now be at risk because of the recently adopted law “on transparency of foreign influence.” This controversial legislation targeting media and NGOs has sparked mass street protests and, coupled with violence against protesters and a bill that would restrict LGBTQ+ rights and freedoms, has raised concerns about democratic backsliding in Georgia. In this episode of The Russia File, Nina Rozhanovskaya talks with journalist Joshua Kucera about the motivations of the ruling Georgian Dream party, Georgia's struggle to balance between Russia and the West, and the social and political climate in the country ahead of the parliamentary election. For more information including show notes and relevant timestamps, visit our site: https://www.wilsoncenter.org/audio/georgian-politics-after-controversial-foreign-agent-law

We are on the ground in Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia, where Europe and Asia meet. For weeks hundreds of thousands of (overwhelmingly) Gen Zs have taken to the streets to protest against their government. The gates of Parliament have been stormed, tear gas repeatedly deployed, protesters beaten up and with even a fist fight among MPs thrown in.The clash has centred on the governing Georgian Dream Party's “Foreign Agent” law, which opponents fear will be a tool to suppress political opponents. But the divisions being exposed in Georgia are far more fundamental and go much beyond than that. At the beating heart of it all is the influence of Russia, Vladimir Putin and a question which haunts many of the Soviet successor states- are we the next Ukraine?

Nate Cain Drops The Nukes on West Virginia and DC (Part I)

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Nate Cain, a true Republican candidate for Congress from West Virginia's 2nd congressional district. The interview turned out to be a humdinger and a bit lengthy, so we are publishing in two parts. Mr. Cain is an Army veteran, and also has been a civilian employee of the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Marine Corps, and the FBI. While working for the FBI, Mr. Cain became one of the most important whistle-blowers we have ever heard of. During his FBI tenure 2017-2018, Nate saw FBI documents that showed that then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, her associates in Obama's regime – at the highest levels, such as two FBI Directors and other senior DOJ officials, and major Clinton donors – had behaved treasonously, and otherwise criminally via money-laundering, “pay-to-play”, and illegal transfers of uranium to Russia. Mr. Cain took the documents to Congressman Devin Nunes and received whistle-blower protection under the law, but the FBI fired him and raided his home, taking his electronic devices and deeply upsetting his wife and children. Giving enormous credence to Mr. Cain's claims about the nature of the information he delivered to Nunes is that fact that he still holds his security clearances, showing that he acted legally and truthfully by getting the documents to Congress, and that the FBI, DOJ, the Clintons and the Obamas knew that and feared if the issue was not buried “it could bring down the whole government.” In his congressional race in West Virginia's 2nd district, Mr. Cain stands as center-right Republican with a Christian perspective on the world, and says he is determined to fight the neo-fascist corporatism that is now abroad in his state and the nation. He has been conducting a grass roots, very localized campaign to get his message out, so far clocking 60,000 miles on the family car in the effort. After he entered the race, members of the Republican caucus in the state's legislature asked him to drop out in favor of his opponent. His opponent is Riley Moore, the nephew of Republican U.S. Senator Moore Capito. Mr. Cain refused and afterward found it nearly impossible to schedule any radio interviews in the state. The refusals from radio programs included the biggest radio voice in the state, one that covers every county in West Virginia. Why, well the Moore family is plenty wealthy and former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy was quick to endorse Riley Moore immediately as soon as he entered the race. There still seems to be RINO's rampant in West Virginia.  Mr. Cain's opponent, Riley Moore, was West Virginia's treasurer and won applause – including from The Two Mikes, for which we humbly offer this mea culpa for getting slicked – for fighting the attempt of banks to enforce their ESG rules against energy companies in West Virginia. Mr. Cain spent the second half of the program suggesting quite strongly that Mr. Moore may not be the conservative he claims to be. Before returning to West Virginia, Mr. Cain alleged Mr. Moore worked in Washington as a “Registered Foreign Agent” that is he was a lobbyist of the Congress for the interests of foreign organizations and countries like Hong Kong, after its return to China, Somalia, and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. He also worked with John and Tony Podesta, the later a noted collector of “art” showing children in unusual activities. He also worked with Tony Podesta in Ukraine where he helped Podesta's lobbying activities, but during which he was not registered as a “Foreign Agent”.Most recently, Moore has been associated with John Podesta to bring a large battery project to the northern part of West Virginia. The scoundrels behind this project are Bill Gates and George Soros and they have scrounged $290 million dollars in West Virginia taxpayer money for building facilities and manufacturing the batteries – Riley Moore through a proxy voted for $220 million-dollars of that amount. They also have already persuaded the U.S. Congress give them an exemption from a standing ban on Chinese technology and hardware for use in such projects, and an exemption from the Environmental Protection Agency from a ban meant to keep polluted water from the project being dumped into fresh waters, in this case the Ohio River. Shades of Palestine Ohio. The Gates-Soros team also refused to guarantee that most of the 750 jobs created by the project would go to West Virginians. Doesn't sound like much of a bargain for working or unemployed West Virginians.Instead of take me home West Virginia we say, Take the $290 million back.Subscribe to Freedom First Network on Rumble to watch all of our shows LIVE: https://rumble.com/c/freedomfirstnetwork Elevate your meals with Freedom First Beef… even if you find yourself in the middle of the apocalypse!

Grant F. Smith, the director of the Institute for Research: Middle Eastern Policy, discusses the influential American-Israel Public Affairs Committe (AIPAC). Smith has written several books on AIPAC. which was started with $6 million in foreign funding, largely from Israel, but eluded U.S. efforts to register it as a foreign agent. While it's treated as a domestic lobbying organization, Smith says AIPAC today continues to act as a foreign agent for Israel, employing campaign contributions, covert pressure campaigns and espionage in collusion with Israel to advance policies that serve the state of Israel but not the United States or the public good.

Is Tucker Carlson an Unregistered Foreign Agent? [TEASER]

Welcome to this Gaslit Nation Emergency Bonus Episode, to cover Walter Duranty's latest interview with Stalin, as he carries out a genocide. That was over ninety years ago. Today history repeats, with Tucker Carlson releasing a two-hour rant by Putin, presenting what Kellyanne Conway once lovingly referred to as “alternative facts.” Gaslit Nation has the fact-check for you here, and explains why Tucker Carlson, in his traitors paradise in Moscow, visiting Tara Reade, should be investigated for being an unregistered foreign agent. The Dominion lawsuit against Fox News essentially established that Tucker Carlson is not a journalist, and therefore must be investigated for furthering the Kremlin's agenda.   Like longtime Kremlin operative Paul Manafort who he tried to rehabilitate on his Fox News show, Tucker Carlson reeks of FARA (Foreign Agents Registration Act). According to Anton Gerashchenko, a former member of Ukraine's parliament who has served in various government roles, Russian telegram channels expressed frustration in the Kremlin over Putin and Tucker's love-in. (Putin sounded like one of those rambling email forwards about Barack HUSSEIN Obama, but the anti-Ukrainian version.) Those reports mention that Tucker was paid a fee. If that's the case, then he needs to report that and any other perks he received from a foreign adversary. If he doesn't disclose if and what he was paid for his Kremlin interview, he should face a FARA investigation by the DOJ (Wake up, Merrick Garland!), and an investigation by Democrats in the Senate.  Amazingly, this week the Mr. Jones' graphic novel adaptation, In the Shadow of Stalin, was announced by Oni Press – read more about that in the show notes below. The graphic novel includes deleted scenes from the film. A sneak peak of the pages can be seen here: https://aiptcomics.com/2024/02/07/in-the-shadow-of-stalin-the-story-of-mr-jones/  For historical context of Tucker Carlson's dangerous Putin interview, watch Mr. Jones or read In the Shadow of Stalin, out September 4th, and available for pre-order now.  We look forward to seeing you at the special live taping of Gaslit Nation featuring former New York state prosecutor Tristan Snell, author of the new book, Taking Down Trump: 12 Rules for Prosecuting Donald Trump by Someone Who Did It Successfully.

Today's show opens with the announcement that three members of our military were killed and dozens injured by a drone strike that has ties to Iran. Our forces have endured close to 150 attacks since the October 7 massacre committed by Hamas and the Palestinians. We have inept leadership playing make-believe on the world stage. WH Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre couldn't even get cogent words to spill from her lying lips today when discussing it. Next we discuss how more “sanctuary cities” are pushing to close the border. It's so easy to virtue signal with words when no action is required. But, now that they are on the brink of financial collapse, suddenly, they don't want to be sanctuaries anymore. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) may have cooked her own goose by telling an audience that she puts Somali interests first followed by Muslim interests. She never once said she puts America's interests on her plate. In essence, she is a foreign agent who has infiltrated the Congress. Next we spend a good amount of time on the ridiculous E. Jean Carroll case and the bias of the Judge involved. I play for you all of the sound and evidence that Trump's defensive team was not allowed to bring to the courtroom when mounting their defense. As we start to close, I remind you that President Donald Trump had already eliminated US funding for the UNRWA, but President Biden put it back and then raised it. Now we find the UNRWA participated in the October 7 massacre in Israel and once again this regime is being asked why they fund terrorists? Finally, I play an old sound bite from Carl Sagan. It's as important to hear today, maybe even more so, than when he first warned over the label of “science.” He worried that some charlatans would use the label as a means of shutting down the conversation, rather than understanding science is always skeptical and always questioning.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (10/12/2023): 3:05pm- In a post to the social media outlet X, Reason editor and podcaster Nick Gillespie discussed the libertarian response to the October 7th Hamas terror attacks against Israel. Gillespie explains, “I'm increasingly frustrated by whataboutist libertarian takes on indefensible Hamas terrorism that seemingly deny Israel's unquestionable right to respond to war crimes committed within its own borders. If your first—or second, or third—response to civilian deaths is to point out that not all the children were decapitated, you're doing it wrong. These takes tend to conflate questions of legitimate national self-defense on the part of a country and possible US intervention that is often morally, strategically, and pragmatically suspect. A similar conflation was evident when Russia invaded Ukraine, with too many libertarians justifying Putin's war-of-choice as the inevitable result of US foreign policy, impugning Ukrainians defending themselves, or waving away solidarity with and empathy for the invaded as ‘CIA talking points.' Same with Taiwan and Hong Kong. But the righteousness of self-defense and American military involvement are totally separate matters. More than most nations, Israel is capable of defending itself (and will do so with greater restraint than most countries would in similar circumstances). The US should not become involved militarily even as we should offer humanitarian aid and assistance, including to Gazans suffering under Hamas rule. We shouldn't be the world's policeman (the past 20 years of our foreign policy testify to that) but we also can play a role in minimizing conflict and suffering.” You can listen to Gillespie's podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/EBfQXtaCpKg 3:40pm- Kara Scannell of CNN reports that, “[f]ederal prosecutors on Thursday announced an additional charge against New Jersey Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez and his wife, alleging they conspired to have the senator act as a foreign agent of Egypt. The superseding indictment filed against Menendez, who was chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee at the time of the alleged actions, adds a new dimension to the case by alleging a US senator was working on behalf of another country.” In September, Menendez was charged with accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes with federal prosecutors finding $500,000 in cash, as well as gold bars, in Menendez's home—some of which contained fingerprints or DNA of Fred Daibes, a real estate developer accused of bribing Menendez and his wife Nadine.

Binion explains, “Shepard's murder was, without a doubt, an act of hate and violence. But the latter part of Biden's statement—that his murder was spurred by homophobic animus—is the most important. For years, it has been repeated in the some of the largest media outlets. It has driven federal policy. It is the part that ‘changed America,' despite all evidence pointing to the fact that it isn't true.” You can read the full article here: https://reason.com/2023/10/12/matthew-shepards-murder-was-almost-certainly-not-an-anti-gay-hate-crime/ 6:30pm- Rich is joined by 1210 WPHT producers Anthony and Dan who are at Citizen Bank Park ahead of tonight's game 4 playoff matchup between the Philadelphia Phillies and Atlanta Braves.

In this episode of The FRONTLINE Dispatch, Forbes joins host Raney Aronson-Rath, editor-in-chief and executive producer of FRONTLINE, to discuss Putin vs. the Press, the new documentary that follows Muratov as he as he faces personal attacks and fights to keep his reporters safe. Forbes recounts the difficulty of filming a documentary in Russia, where he says Muratov's story “symbolizes the increasing restriction on freedom of press in Russia” and “the slow strangling of any independent voices.” Putin vs. the Press is streaming on FRONTLINE's website, FRONTLINE's YouTube channel, and the PBS App. Want to be notified every time a new podcast episode drops?

Can you imagine being swallowed up in the legal hurricane of Russiagate with President Trump and Special Counsel Robert Mueller? My guest, Sam Patten, was and is here to give us front row seats of the nightmare he endured with his conviction. Sam's book, Dangerous Company: Misadventures of a "Foreign Agent" is a memoir that reads like a thriller. Sam has had his hand in historical events without the glare of the spotlight until the Mueller Investigation of President Trump. He worked for Senators William Cohen, Susan Collins, and Olympia Snowe. He ran the Presidential Campaign for George W Bush in Maine. Then he left US politics to spread democracy abroad. He became an advisor to political leaders in Iraq, Ukraine, the Congo, Nigeria, and Mexico. He was also working in Russia during the early years of Vladimir Putin. When Washington went on the hunt for anyone who could have helped the Russians elect Donald Trump as president, Patten was a "usual suspect." He was working with Paul Manafort in Ukraine before Manafort took over Trump's Campaign. Robert Mueller eventually convicted Patten for failing to register as a foreign agent under a seldom used 1938 statute. It is fascinating to hear the behind the scenes drama of how his nightmare started with the FBI and how it continued as the FBI attempted to squeeze every ounce of information out of him. All the while, the national media are opining daily with the intense real time drama. Sam is getting geared up for a second wind with his book Dangerous Company: Misadventures of a "Foreign Agent" https://a.co/d/3w5mslz. Sam writes a thought provoking column about current events for the Maine Wire.

All links: https://linktr.ee/theaustinjadams Apparel: Https://antielite.club Newsletter: https://austinadams.substack.com   ----more---- Full Transcription  The Adams archive.   Hello, you beautiful people and welcome to the Adams Archive. My name is Austin Adams and thank you so much for listening. Today on today's agenda is a ton of different topics that are out there from the last week. The first one being Donald Trump was at the U F C event over the weekend, which was probably one of the biggest cards of the year, and he had an interesting interaction with Joe Rogan, which we will attempt to break down. Although I'm not very good at reading lips, I will give it my best. After that, we are going to take a look at an article that's coming from Fox News which is that the Marine Corps is going without a confirmed leader for the first time in over 164 years, and we'll talk about what that means. Then we're going to look at the disgrace. Dr. Larry Nassar, who if you recall, was the disgusting gymnastics coach of the US Olympic team and sexually assaulted. Like, I'm pretty sure it was like hundreds of girls. So he got stabbed and we will celebrate that. And then moving on, we will talk about the movie, the Sound of Freedom. So we discussed that I think two, two or so episodes ago. We, we went into the trailer of that. Now that it has been released, there's been all this hype around it and some news companies throwing a bunch of shade which is a, a kind of a weird thing to do to something raising such positive awareness to such a horrific thing. But we'll talk about who those news stations were. It may be why they were doing that, cuz it might start to make a little bit more sense. Other things in the news is that miss Netherlands was now Mr. Netherlands because it was crowning a trans woman, Ricky, Valerie Coley. So we'll look at that potentially if we get to it. And then one of the breaking events that has been going on here is that the Biden, department of Justin, department of Justin. I wonder if there's a guy named Justin in the Department of Justice Biden's, department of Justice indicts, a whistleblower who alleged alleged that the Biden family was involved in bribery schemes. Could you imagine that? And then, We will go into the video that surfaced about that individual. And last but not least, the longer you're here, the deeper we get. Rogan posted a Reddit thread from the Reddit aliens sub Reddit, which has the title of, from the late two thousands to the mid 2000 and tens. I worked as a molecular biologist for a national security contractor in a program to study exo biospheric organisms or ebos. I will share with you a lot of information on the subject. Feel free to ask questions or ask for clarification. We're talking about aliens, folks, so this is a very long thread. I don't know if we'll read all of it, but I will get it summarized for you and maybe just maybe, depending on how interesting it is, we will but pretty wild. So all of that and more. So stick around again. The longer you stick around, the deeper we go. All right, so let's go ahead and the first thing I need you to do is go ahead and hit that subscribe button. Leave a five star review, head over to the ck We did send out this week's podcast companion from last episode. So head over there, Austin Adams dot sub stack.com. You get all the links, all the videos, all the articles that we're discussing here. And yeah, you can keep up to date with me and what, what's going on. So Austin Adams dot sub stack.com. Leave a five star review, hit the subscribe button and let's jump into it.   The Adams archive.  All right, the very first app article on today's episode. It's going to be that Donald Trump made an appearance at UFC two 90 in Las Vegas, and the arena went absolutely wild. And we'll see if we can get some audio on this clip here for you guys, because as soon as he walks out now, something that I've discussed on this, right? I threaded through Instagram's threads instead of Tweeted. It doesn't sound as good as Tweeted to be honest. But something I threaded was that it's pretty wild that meanwhile, while Joe Biden is fumbling around a beach, not knowing which way is to the water we have Donald Trump at a U F C event, cage side, getting, you know, high fives from almost every single fighter that won their fights getting praises from the entire audience, going wild when he's out there. It's pretty crazy to see, but what, if not the single best PR for any president ever is being ringside at every UFC event. Like, could you imagine? People would, people would say, Ooh, there we go. What people would say if Vladimir Putin was at all the MMA fights, like, that is a power move, son. So here it is. Let's go ahead and listen to this clip of him walking up. We'll see if it's, if it's too loud, we'll cut it, but here we go. This is Donald Trump walking out to the U F C F. Two Kid Rock. That's amazing. American Badass. Oh my gosh, that's incredible. High fiving everybody in the audience. Blue suit, red tie, yellow hair coming in and just everybody goes Wild Z and ZZ Top. All right, there you go. There's his walkup song if probably one of the most fitting walkup songs in the UFC and he walks out with Dana White here as we'll. See. Oh, we got the man's here. As you might expect for International Fight Week, a lot of people are in the building. But no one needs more security. From the former president of the United States, obviously a really good friend of Dana White. Oh my word. I mean, listen, he's a massive, massive fight fighter, and that just shows how big this event is. Donald Trump has loved the fights for a long time. He's often at Madison Square Garden for the International Fight Week. He has to show up, show his support he has done from since day one. It's good to see him here. Dall, oh, it's no surprise that this man is here because this is the only thing that stayed open in all of sports during some of the darkest times. Glad he's here. All right, let's go. Listen to how excited they all are, and imagine if that was Joe Biden just, you know, randomly walking through the crowd, not knowing which seat was his. Meanwhile he's getting a shout out from literally everybody. And then he had a peculiar interaction with Joe Rogan, so Donald Trump at the UFC event over the weekend. Lock's eyes with Joe Rogan shakes his hand in what must have been one of the most intense handshakes ever between these guys who just shook hands for about 25 seconds and exchange some words. So I'm gonna give you my best idea of what's being said here. Now, we don't know exactly what was said. Now hopefully there's somebody who can read some lips that can actually figure it out. But here's what I got for you. Donald Trump walks up to him and goes to shake his hand. Now, when the video comes in, as it starts to play here, All right. So Donald Trump goes up, it's mid handshake. Donald Trump's, you know, going, you're the man. It seems like, you know, you're doing great stuff, you know, and it seems like he's saying something about how they should do something together. Like, I should get on your podcast. We should have a conversation. Somebody that I saw said that they believe that he said that we should have a conversation, just not, just doesn't even have to be on the podcast, just together. And so could we have a Joe Rogan Donald Trump podcast? It seems more likely now than ever after Donald Trump was at the U F C event, shaking hands with Joe Rogan and having this interaction. Pretty cool. Hopefully that happens because that would be the world's most watched podcast of all time. Could you imagine Joe, Joe Biden getting on Joe Rogan's podcast? Like that would be the most boring ass conversation you could ever imagine. Literally, everybody who watches Joe Rogan's podcast would probably boycott the episode because it would be so irritating, annoying, and, and, and like just sad to watch if Donald, if Donald Trump went on Joe Rogan, it would be the single most watched episode in history of any podcast ever for now and the future. Very likely. So anyways, that was pretty cool. Thought that was awesome. What a power move by Donald Trump and his PR team and you know, hopefully we see a Donald Trump, Joe Rogan podcast as they just had this respectful interaction where neither seemed to want to let go of the handshake first. It was pretty cool to see. All right, moving on now, the next article that we're gonna talk about here, and we'll touch on this briefly, it says, the Marine Corps is without confirmed leadership for the first time in 164 years. And this comes from Fox News, where it says that the US Marine Corps does not have a confirmed leader for the first time in 164 years. Following Marine Corps's Commandant, general David Berger's relinquish of Command Ceremony held Monday and Berger's. Or Berger's private retirement ceremony at the relinquish of command ceremony at the Marine Corpse Barracks in Washington, DC General. Eric Smith, the assistant Commandant of the Marine Corpse, took over as acting commandant. President Biden had nominated Smith to lead the service in May, and Smith is expected to serve as the acting commandant, but also stay in his role as Assistant Commandant. How does that work without a second? Com in command due to the hold. The last time the Marines were without a confirmed leader was 1859. Following the death of Commandant Archibald Henderson Senator Tuberville, Republican from Alabama is blocking more than a two 50. 250 fast tracked military promotions in the Senate over the Pentagon's post OBS abortion policy established early the earlier this year. The Pentagon's new policy pays for the travel and time off of service members that they must take to receive abortions if the state where they are stationed does not allow the procedure. What. How about No. How about take one of your 30 days of fricking paid time off buddy, or don't and don't kill your baby defense secretary Lloyd Austin. The Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman General Mark Milley have both called Tuberville hold a national security concern without calling Tuberville. Oh, you mean to kill Americans? Just like all the babies. Without calling Tuberville out directly, Austin said his hold is becoming a readiness issue and called on the Senate to confirm these military leaders smooth and timely, timely transitions of confirmed leadership are central to the defense of the United States and the full strength of the powerful fighting force in hi the most powerful fighting force in history. Berger agreed saying in his remarks, we need the Senate to do their job so we can have a sitting commandant that's appointed and confirmed now. I'm not for abortion in any way, shape, or form. I absolutely do not think that there's any reason at all the military should pay for you to go on leave, to go get an abortion, or for your wife to go get an abortion or for the stripper that you met, you know, right outside of base to go get an abortion. I don't think that we should pay for that. I think that you should pay for that. Then you definitely shouldn't get extra leave for it. But I also don't think that that should hold up somebody getting put into the highest position of command in the Marine Corps. That seems a little bit crazy that those two things are intertwined. Interesting, but definitely don't agree with that and definitely don't agree with them paying for that. But it seems like there should be some sort of, you know, other way of making that statement. But who am I? Especially when we're in one of the most contentious time periods in history. Tuberville placed a hold on approving these denominations by unanimous consent this past February. If Secretary Austin wants to change the law, she should go through Congress. Tuberville told Fox News Digital Tuberville had a 10 minute phone call with Austin back in March, according to the Senator's office. Yeah, kind of crazy. See what people have to say? His finest. Finally, Congress is taking back some of its authority. We have legal proceedings in place that should be followed and not worked around or set aside for convenience or fast tracking. If a law is wrong or needs to be changed, Congress is the branch of government that has the power to do it. Interesting. That's the first comment and most liked comment. Somebody else said, Hmm, nah, nothing good there. All right. Let's see. Says this administration is not following the law. The senator is using a legal means to hold them accountable. Follow the law Biden. Hmm. Interesting. Doesn't make sense to me. Anyways, moving on in probably the most positive news of this week, because there's all this negative news going around. What I would say is the, the most positive news of this week that I've heard of personally, is that Dr. Larry Nassar was stabbed several times, and I think that's the most positive news of the week because he's a gross, sexually abusive pedophile who deserves to get stabbed because he was the one who sexually abused hundreds, if I'm recalling correctly, the amount, hundreds of U s A gymnastics gymnasts through over 300 female gymnasts at the club that he was sexually assaulting up to 300 of them at Michigan State University and at his home in Holton, Michigan. Yeah. Something worse should have happened to him other than just stabbing him. Unfortunately, he's alive. Larry Nassar. It says this is coming from the post-millennial, says, Larry Nassar has reportedly suffered multiple stab wounds after an altercation broke out in a federal prison in Florida. Two people familiar with the incident said Nasser had been stabbed in the back and the chest, but that he was in stable condition. Unfortunately, according to the associate press in 2018, Nassar was sentenced up to 175 years in federal prison after being found guilty of sexually abusing up to 300 female gymnasts at John Gutter's, twin Stars USA Gymnastics Club, Michigan State University, and at his home in Holt, Michigan. The attack apparently happened Sunday at the United States Penitentiary Coleman in Florida. Nassar had relocated to Florida after being assaulted in Tucson, Arizona, where he had previously been being held. Nasser admitted to sexually assaulting athletes when he was employed at Michigan State University and U USA Gymnastics, which trains Olympians. Additionally, Nassar, who pleaded guilty to, he also pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography when victims were giving impact statements in 2018. Several claims that he told that they had told adults around them what kind of abuse they were experiencing, including coaches and athletic trainers, but the complaints went unreported. The report noted that over a hundred women, including Olympic gold medalists, Simone Biles, had collectively attempted to get 1 billion from the government after it was revealed. The F b I had failed to do anything about Nassar when the allegations were initially brought to light in 2015. It was not until a year later in 2016 that the Michigan State University police arrested him. Michigan State was accused of missing opportunities to stop Nassar, which resulted in the university agreeing to pay 500 million to more than 300 women and girls who were assaulted by the sports doctor. Additionally, U USA Gymnastics and the Olympic US. Paraplegic committee or paralympic committee, sorry, agreed to that, to a 380 million settlement. There are more than 150 victims who spoke or submitted statements during the seven day hearing. More than four years ago, there were even a father, and there was even a fa, a father to good Lord. What's wrong with my eyes? There was even a father upon having the opportunity to speak, attempted to attack Nassar in the courtroom. Now, if you remember this, this guy walked up to the stand and goes, judge May, may you just give me five minutes in the locker room with this guy. Deja goes, no. How about one minute he says, and the judge says No, and then he runs after this guy with no plan of attack whatsoever and gets tackled by a bunch of police. Here we go. I would ask you to, as part of this sentencing, to grant me five minutes in a locked room in this demon. I would you do that? I that is not yes or no? No, sir. Would you gimme one minute, you know that I can't do that. That's not how I, well, I'm gonna have to stay, stay, stay. Stop. Good Lord, I want that. One of these cops should took the opportunity to accidentally shoot Nassar. Give one minute. Had to be quicker. Dad. Gotta be quicker. Gotta have a plan of attack too. Relax, relax. Take it easy. You know, good show of you know, emotion. Sure it's crystal clear, I'm sure, and I'm sure the, you cannot behave like this. Two, two days that he probably spent in there be before, before being let go. You know, every father ever probably wishes that they would, you know, have that opportunity who ran into something like that. So I just, just can't imagine what that man is going through. And the, you know, when you're the dad and you're, you are, is to protect your child. You know, the lengths that you would go to and the things that you would do are probably unbelievable. So, you know, a good showing of, of emotion there. At least maybe not the right attempt, maybe not the right approach. Maybe sit and wait for them to take him outside after, you know, or between sessions or, you know, at least be a little bit quicker to the draw there. Cuz he was pretty slow, not not getting past the, the police there. And there you have it so that, that. Is the first round of what is happening to Naar Nassar. And hopefully there's a second round. I guess he got beat up in the other prison, so maybe third round. We'll, we'll finish it. Cuz what a disgusting man this person is and, and it, we're finding this more consistently where it is. Doctors in sports medicine. Who are taking advantage of underage athletes. There was a physician in Michigan who was responsible for a similar situation to a bunch of underage hockey players that I actually, you know am familiar with the teams and, and stuff that this guy was involved with. And he, he was indicted on, I believe almost, it was at least 80, 80 or so, it was 18 or 81, 1 of the two. Vast difference, but doesn't make him much of a difference that cuz you're just as big of a piece of shit and deserve to get, you know, what this guy had coming to him. All right, moving on. There's your positive news for the weak folks and in other news cnn Now, if you recall, the sound of freedom, right? The sound of freedom being the, the movie. That was done by Tim Baard, who owns Operation Underground Railroad and Operation Underground Railroad is a nonprofit organization which goes and saves children from underground sex trafficking. There's been over 2000 children that have been saved by Operation Underground Freedom or Underground Railroad. And the Sound of Freedom is a retelling of the story of how Tim Ballard got into saving these children. Now, I, I personally have not been able to get to the theater yet. I have three children. So sometimes it's difficult to go sit in a theater and watch something that isn't animated. So but my plan is to go watch this for sure. 100%. You should go see it. If you know somebody take 'em with you may, especially if they, you know, are, are skeptical about the entire, you know, trafficking of children thing or this really will shed light on it. I've, I've spoke to several people who have gone and seen it. They said that it's one of the most impactful, if not the most impactful movies that I've ever seen. It's supposedly pretty dark, but how is it not, you know, it, it's a dark world and this is one of the darkest parts of it. And so to see that somebody, anybody is shedding light on this. And so there, there was some, some conversations. Now I had several people reach out to me after the last podcast cause I posted about it. I've posted about the sound of freedom. And there was some skepticism around Tim Ballard, which might be an, an interesting episode in and of itself. But there was some skepticism around Tim Ballard where there was allegations that Tim Ballard had, you know, in, in his operations, been accused of inappropriate behavior, which these guys are going undercover to do these things. And generally in, in order to get in the club to save these children, probably have to say some things that you wouldn't normally say unless you're in character trying to get into one of these places. So that was one of the allegations is he like to touch some girl's waist or butt or something inappropriately when he was trying to convince people that he was a part of. You know, it was part of their crowd and trying to get in there so he can actually save these people. Some of the other allegations were that he was taking some of the, a lot of the money that he was getting in from Operation Underground Railroad and it wasn't going to the right things. And that he was making a lot of money and that he was using it as a, you know, to help promote the Latter Day Saints, which I guess he's a part of. And so there's a, there's some little, there's some murkiness to this. However, I would say in light of anything and everything that I've seen on this, and I've dove deep, I've talked to people that I know that were a part of some of these, you know, organizations and, and have some little bit of know, know within the community. And I tend to agree with what they said, with, which was essentially that if, if anything that Tim Ballard did that made him seem somewhat dishonorable, cannot be overshadowed by the outcome of his honorable actions, right? So even if, let's say he's making a lot of money off of this, even if he is. Had to put himself in precarious situations and act out of character to get into these places, to save these children. I would take that all day in order for these children to be saved. Right? In 2000 is nothing, but it's something, right? Compared to the 2 million that he claims are, are out there right now that need to be saved. It's a drop in the bucket, but it's a drop in that bucket. So that's my thoughts on that. So do your own digging, do your own research. There was a lot of people that came out against him, Ballard, and I just didn't see anything credible enough to overshadow the credibility of the positive things that he was doing. So there's my thoughts on that. Now, what is dishonorable? Is that c n. And I believe it was, let's see, there was, there was three different news networks that came out and spoke out against the Sound of Freedom, calling it a Q Anon conspiracy, telling people they had worms in their brain if they liked this movie or if they thought this was real, or, you know, you, and then CNN came out and had a clip that said Hollywood, let's see, Hollywood Q Anon promoters promoters, Hollywood Q Anon promoters movie is hit at box office. That is not a full sentence, guys. So CNN had Mike Rothchild, nonetheless, a part of the Rothchild family on here to tell us that, oh, these people are just conspiracy theorists. Don't worry about what my family's doing in the background here of the, these, you know, shadow organizations that are very well proven to be true. So here's a clip of C Nnn. And you seem pretty familiar with him because he doesn't really hide his association with this real wild plot that that involves, you know, drinking the blood of children and things like that. No, he doesn't hide it at all. And you have a lot of people who are in this world of QAN who say, oh, they don't know what that is. They've never heard of it. They're just asking questions. With somebody like Jim Cavel, he is openly embracing it. He's openly using its catchphrases and its concepts. He's speaking at QAN conventions. And this film is being marketed to either specific Q Anon believers or to people who believe all of the same tenets as Q Anon, but claim they don't know what it is. And the Sound of freedom does focus on a real issue of sex trafficking. But that theme, it, it's sort of like that kernel of truth that feeds the Q Anon conspiracy theory. Tell us how those two things work together. Sure. And the most durable and the most believable conspiracy theories are not entirely false. There's something in them that is true, and the rest of it is false. But the believers point to the one true thing and they say, oh, you don't believe that this particular thing is true in terms of child trafficking. We know trafficking is real. We know it has real victims. No one is denying that. But these films are created out of moral panics. They're created out of bogus statistics. They're created out of. Fear. And with something like Sound of Freedom, it specifically is looking at QID on concepts of these child trafficking rings that are run by the high level elites and only people like Tim Ballard and only people like Jim Veel, and by extension only people like the ticket buyer can help bring these trafficking rings down. So there's a very participatory element. You're not just going to see a movie, you're just killing two hours on a hot day. You are helping bring down these, these pedophile rings and save children. Now it's not true. But it's a very comforting, and it's a very warm feeling to have. So I want you to listen to how they are programming this, because if you want an example of text book Abusive gaslighting, here it is, c n n coming out and saying that anybody who believes that high level people are are sex trafficking children or involved in adrenal chrome processing or anything to do with adrenal chrome. But really, let's just focus on the trafficking portion to believe that anybody is involved in, at a high level, these billionaires who, who have an appetite for sex trafficking and children to believe that you must be a qan conspiracy theorist. How stupid are they? Well, isn't this the same C n N who was reporting on Jeffrey Epstein less than three years ago? You know, the billionaire involved in high level trafficking that visited the White House 17 times, along with plenty of people, including Bill Gates, including almost a, a, an entire roster of celebrities from Hollywood that flew to his island, that he had children trafficked to the same cnn Who reported on that? Oh, you wanna know what else? The same CNN who had not won, but two c Nnn producers who were involved in and brought to justice over pedophilia. Jeff Zucker being one of them, who convinced a mother to fly her child out and abuse her with him, fly her child to him, and just reading the text messages that that man sent to this mother. Makes your skin crawl. Meanwhile, CNN wants to gaslight you and tell you that you're stupid, tell you you're a conspiracy theorist and, and muddy the waters with this Q Anon term that they haven't brought up Now in a year or two until it's convenient, right? Just like he said here. Oh, that there's, oh, what a, what a silly idea that there's celebrities out there and billionaires who would sex traffic children. How stupid are these people? Bogus statistics. They're created out of fear. And with something like Sound of Freedom, it specifically is looking at QID on concepts of these child trafficking rings that are run by the high level elites. And only people like Tim Ballard and only people like that are buddies, high level elites, and only people like the ticket buyer can save them. Buddy, this is real. We all agree that this is real. Now the last person that you could have come on to CNN to convince me that child human trafficking isn't real is a Rothchild, but that's what CNN brought on air to try to convince you that anybody who liked this movie or that liked the idea that was shedding light on one of the grossest, the most disgusting, most egregious things in human history that's being done today, right now is fake, isn't real. Oh, it's a conspiracy. Oh, maybe he has a kernel of truth in there, but there's not high level elites who are trafficking children. You mean like the guy who died in jail, who is a billionaire who was connected with probably half of this guy's family and buddies and all of Hollywood and at the White House 17 times who Bill Clinton flew to his house on an island where he trafficked children to. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's, that's the one. That's the conspiracy that everybody's stupid for believing in. Thank you so much, Mike Rothschild. Now on another positive note. This is absolutely shedding light on child human trafficking. It is one of the, the top box office movies that there's been this year, and people are, are choking up about this. People want to do something about it. People are becoming aware of this, and the sound of freedom has now triggered people to have more awareness on the disgusting people that are out there, that are predators towards children. And this video I'm about to show you is a perfect example of it. There was a mom, Who is at the mall and it says, stop what you're doing and make this Petto famous. This brave girl just done just got done watching the Sound of Freedom, and the next day while at the mall, noticed a predator taking pictures of two young girls bent over at the mall. She then confronts the pedophile while video recording him and makes him delete the photos on his phone. These people are everywhere. He could have just been a petto or he could have just been scoping out his next sex trafficking victim, and he's absolutely right. Here's the video. Yesterday I posted that I went to go see the movie Sound of Freedom, and it was an amazing movie. I recommend everybody go watch that. It really, really opens your eyes about what really goes on behind the scenes and something that is so prevalent here in the us, but definitely recommend you go see it. But today something happened that I really just did not expect at all and it. Relates to this movie. Today I went to the mall to go pick up something to eat. Me and my mom, we went over there really quick to do some shopping and we went to Auntie Ann's and my mom already got outta the wine. She already paid, and I stayed back to grab some napkins and some straws and things like that. And as I grabbed it and I was walking there was a man that was behind the line and he was taking out his phone to take a picture. And I noticed he had his flash on and it was pointed towards this bench where these two young girls were at. And I decided, so I noticed that his flash was on, so I stood right in front of the camera and I was like, you know what? I don't know if he's ignoring me or seeing me. So I went, I decided to go behind him and he looked towards my mom. He's like, oh no, it's my daughter. It's my daughter. So he sticks out his phone again and starts taking a picture of this young girl. The girl was with her friend and she was laying her head down on her friend's lap, and her behind was sticking out. So her body was, her face was towards the seat or the bench. And so her whole behind was out and she was in a short black, she was in a short black dress. Let's see if we can get to the part we were just at towards this bench where these two young girls were at, and I just was, was on. So I stood right in front of the camera and I was like, you know what? I don't know if he's ignoring me. You're seeing me. So I went, I decided to go behind him and he looked towards my mom. He's like, oh no, it's my daughter. It's my daughter. So he sticks out his phone again and starts taking a picture of this young girl. The girl was with her friend, and she was laying her head down on her friend's lap, and her behind was sticking out. So her body was, her face was towards the seat or the bench. And so her whole behind was out, and she was in a short black skirt. And this girl, I would say she's in between the ages of probably like 13, 15, she looked super young and he kept saying like, oh, that's my daughter now that's my daughter. So I was like, okay, I'm not gonna say anything yet because I don't know what the situation is. So, so what ends up happening is she confronts this man at the mall, makes the man pull out his phone. I go and I go up to these young girls that got after confirming that this man was not their father, in fact, and then goes to the man, confronts him about what he was doing, which she then videotapes and then makes the man delete the photos. Now this woman is a badass. If we had more people like this woman out there, there would be far less predators out there because they are pre predatory on children for a reason, and they're scared of getting confronted with people who are as as big as them, as old as them, as mature as them. They're cowards, they're pieces of trash, and they know it. And if enough people have their eyes out, not only for their children, but for other people's children like this woman did, then this would happen less often because people know that they would be confronted by people. Let's continue. Anyway, I go up to the young girl and I'm like, Hey, is that guy right there? Really? I try to like make it not as big of a deal, but like I was saying, I didn't wear on a makeup big deal of it because you know, this girl might be scared. I don't know what it is, but I'm like, Hey, is that guy your dad? And she's like, no, why? And so she confronts this man. And now as we go to that portion of the video, I'll talk you through it a little bit, but it's taken a second to buffer here. So give it one moment, but good on this girl. She can't be over 30. She looks like she's probably like 26, 27. And for her to confront this man in the way that she did is amazing. And like I said, if we have more people doing this type of thing, less people would be proud that there is against children because they know that the microscope is on them. And that's what this movie does. The Sound of Freedom brings awareness to this brings awareness to the fact that there are real predators out there, brings awareness to the trafficking is real. And you should absolutely be keeping that in mind around your own children, around other people's children. I've seen videos of this woman who was like working a stand that looked like in like Mexico or Brazil and this young child was being targeted by this guy on a scooter. And she goes into this little shop and the woman is very nice and starts talking to the girl and realizes what's about to happen as she sees this guy kind of walking around and prevents the child from being trafficked. 100%. This man was there to steal this child and. Cannot imagine the horrific things that it would've happened. But if we just need more eyes on this, guys, the more eyes we have on it, the less, the less things like this will happen, right? There will be immediate friction, there will be immediate repercussions to these people acting in the, this egregious manner. So again, good on this lady, good on her. This woman good on her for confronting this person. We need more people like her and the video still will not buffer. So I don't know what's going on with Twitter, but in the spirit of that, let's move on. The Netherlands, crowned Miss Netherlands to someone who is not a miss, but a Mister Misses Netherlands crowns trans woman Ricky, Valerie Coley. In other words, a man to be. Miss Netherlands and what is absolutely the most disgusting virtue signal ever, like literally a, and she is. There's other people around this man who are far better looking, far better looking. It goes on, it says, coli of Dutch and indigenous malen descent is from the city of Breta. Between Rotter Dam and Antwerp. Thank you for that very specific outline. She said she wants to be a voice and a male, or a, a male, a, a role model for young women and queer people. As someone who didn't feel supported after coming out as transgender at a young age, she said she wants to leave those stories of suffering in the past. Coley won't be the first trans woman to compete for the Miss Universe. Crown Angela Ponce became the pageant's first trans contestant when she represented Spain in 2018. The 71 year old competition first began allowing transgender contestants in 2012. Well, weren't you ahead of the curve? More trans women have been competing in the preliminary pageants in recent years. In 2021, miss Nevada Cata, Luna Enriquez became the first trans contestant at a Miss u s A pageant. Transwomen and activist Daniela Oroyo Gonzalez will compete for this year's Miss Universe, Puerto Rico. Title next month, Thai Business Mogul. Annie Jra Jupa, no idea how to say that name. A trans activist who is also transgender, bought the Miss Universe organization last year. She has said that she's, he has said that she's committed to advancing the organization as an inclusive platform and wants to transform the brand for the next generation of non women. For Miss Universe, you idiot. I call it a women's empowerment competition, but really it's just de-legitimizing femininity and what women are in general by allowing men with penises to beat the women at their own event. Which is just unbelievable. Like how, how far do we take this, right? Like, of course a man's gonna whoop some woman's ass in the swimming competition if they both train. That's just how that works. But now we've gotten into this contorted, weird secondary universe where men think they, they can actually compete with women. When it comes to feminine beauty, like, I'm sorry, not gonna happen. You are a man. You will always be a man, regardless of how much makeup you put on, regardless of how much chicken cutlets you put in your bra, regardless of how much YouTube contouring classes that you watch, you will always be a man. Until you invert your penis and then have it shut on you. Like that's one of the most horrible things. And, and okay, every time we touch on the trans stuff, I feel the need to talk about this cuz I don't want to be a hateful person. I'm not trying to be hateful, but I think is hateful, is this egregious act of acting like men taking over women's spaces is good for women. There's a reason, there's the W N B A, there's a reason that there is Miss Universe, right? There is Mr. Olympia. You want to go be in a male beauty pageant, start running a hundred fucking grams of trend and get huge like, like the rest of the, the guys out there competing for male beauty pageants. Like this is not the way. And I, I believe that the people that are trans, that believe that they are the other opposite sex are mentally. Ill and, and should be treated as such. And I don't think treated as such as like, oh, you're a bad person. No, I think treated as such as if you are dealing with something on the inside that I can't even fathom. Now that's a portion of it, right? A portion of them are mentally ill. Now a portion of them are seeking attention and that's the Dylan Mulvaney of the world, right? But there are some, I'm sure, very good, very kind, very nice be beautifully beautiful hearts that are trans. But when you try to overtake women's spaces, when you try to treat, make me use your pronouns as if I have to act out your mental illness for you to make you feel okay in the world. I'm just not gonna do it. And I think that anybody who, who is in that world, I. Should seek help. And I hope they get the help that they need because I'm sorry, but you're never gonna be a woman or you're never gonna be a woman who turns into a man or a man that turns into a woman. That's just not gonna happen. And that's the way the universe dealt you. Your cards, and I'm sorry you don't like them, but a lot of poor people who grew up poor wished they could have grown up as the child of Donald Trump. But it's not gonna happen either, no matter how much you pretend it, right? So it's like you should address the thing that is causing you the mental anguish. Don't mask it with fake boobs and lip injections and address like eventually that's gonna lead to heartache and eventually it's gonna lead to you getting all of these surgeries that we don't know the implications of that are eventually going to harm you long-term physically, like getting on hormone replacement therapy, you know, getting estrogen injections, when you should be getting testosterone replacement therapy. It's like we don't know the implications of this, and I'm sorry that you're going through that, but that that is not my burden to bear your mental illness through my speech. And that's, that's what we saw too. More recently, Michigan in, in probably the craziest attempt at passing a law, which has now passed the House of Michigan, Michigan has has imp, has started to push the process along, which again has passed the house. This isn't just like one person trying to act like this is normal. This has passed The house, which is a bill in Michigan, is now saying that if you misgender somebody that you're gonna get a $10,000 fine and a felony. Well, what I would have to say to that Gretchen Whitmer, sir, is that you cannot police speech. You cannot tell me who I any sounds that has to come out of my mouth. You don't get that opportunity. And if I want to call you a man, which in certain lighting you look like, or I wanna call some random trans person knocking down all the shelves in the blockbuster or, or the GameStop, if you remember that video, sir, because you are a sir, then I will do so. You're not gonna find anybody for speech. And if this $10,000 fine from Michigan goes to the Supreme Court, just like all of the other bullshit laws that they've tried to pass and eventually get overturned just like Roe v. Wade, that will get overturned too. I'll be the first person to step up and immediately go to a city hall meeting and call Gretchen Whitmore Mann and watch the police try to arrest me for it. Cuz that is the most ridiculous bullshit law with no fundamental founding in their constitution. That is completely against the first amendment that, that, you know, this is exactly what Jordan Peterson fought against, was the, the implementation of laws to strong arm and bully you into utilizing speech that is not accurate for the feelings of other people. Because if we start there, where does it end? Because that's just the beginning. Then where do we go? Right? You get into this, this news speak era, right? You go back to the Orwellian 1984 type control of language that was involved in authoritarianism, the diminishing of words, you're not allowed to say certain things. And that's where it starts. And this is the, this is the Trojan horse, right? And all the people that are like, equality and d, diversity and like, I hear you, but what you don't see is where this is going. What you don't see is that you are a pawn in the game and eventually, like I've said before, the pendulum swings back and eventually it's coming for you, right? You can only divide the masses so many times until eventually you are on the side that you don't like where your speech is being hindered by governing laws. This law is unbelievably crazy and nobody is talking about it. I posted something the other day and, and very little traction that has come of it. Now, I got a good amount of, you know, attention on it from, from my post, but, It needs to become a common topic because this is the first law that I'm aware of that is being implemented in this way in the United States, where we are founded on the freedom of speech founded on the right to say what we want when we want founded on the freedom of press. If I want to write an article for the Detroit Free Press and call Governor Whitmer a man, I will do it because that is my constitutional right. Just watch me if this goes into effect. Crazy. And that's the world where we've gotten to where somebody's going to win a Miss M I s S pageant with a penis between their legs. This world just gets crazier and crazier and crazier. All right, so I don't even feel like reading the article. Maybe I'll have somebody else read it for you. Here you go. Netherlands Crowns. Its first trans. Oh, two year old Dutch model will be the second openly trans. Whoa. That's going fast for you guys, huh? All right. Yeah, let's move on. So the next article that we're gonna talk about here is that the Biden's Department of Justice Indicts a whistleblower, indicts a whistleblower who alleged that the Biden family was involved in bribery schemes. Could you imagine the Department of Justice being weaponized against biden's enemies? No way. Former Israeli army officer and co-director of a Maryland think tank is under federal indictment Tonight, gal Luft is charged with acting as an unregistered foreign agent, trafficking in arms violating US sanctions against Iran. No man. Twitter's having a hard time today, huh? And making false statements to federal agents. So this man came out and alleged that there was a bribery scheme conducted by the Biden family. Now this in the middle of several, several legal actions that are happening between several different entities at this point. He says he was arrested in Cyprus to stop, to stop him from speaking out him from testifying before Congressional Committee. Yep. Crazy. All right, so this man is guilty. This man is guilty. He's guilty of telling the truth, which is that the Biden family is corrupt. The Biden family is in the pocket of foreign entities like China, like Barisma and Ukraine. These, the Ukrainian energy companies, like all of these organizations that came out from the laptop of Hunter Biden, absolutely. This man is guilty of telling the truth. And, and here's the thing, when these things happen, all it does is draw attention to it regarding bribery allegations against the Biden family. Most frustrating about it is that again, you see how powerful the entities that are in power are because of how quickly and easily they shove these things under the rug. There's never been a president ever who's had as many scandals as Joe Biden, and there's also never been such an effort from every government organization at all. That's. Within the government to cover up so many illegal activities by a presidential family in the history of the United States. Name one name, another president that's sitting that has had so many scandals than Joe Biden, including the video that just came out of Joe Biden, a, a wild video of Joe Biden going up to some foreign looking lady at some meeting saying, don't, don't what did he do? Let me, let me tell you something. Let me tell you something. And he goes, smells her, sniffs her on camera and then goes, don't tell your mama what I told you. Like what? You are the creepiest of creepy old men. And I can't imagine just the what type of things that he, this, that Joe. Biden was doing, especially when his own son called him Petto Pete, within his phone, see if we can get this clip to finish out. Lou makes those allegations in a video obtained exclusively by the New York Post I, who volunteered to inform the US government about potential security breach and about compromising information about a man vying to be the next president. I'm now being hunted by the very same PE I think in my life. I ever had such a hard time with Twitter videos, people whom I informed and may have to. He says, I may have to be on the run for the rest of my life for the allegations that I've made. And we see this with what happened to what happened to the We see this every single time. There's a whistleblower with the Biden administration, right? Every single time there's, there's the, the person in the who, they were trying to s like the, the laptop store owner. There's the you know, e every single time the Biden administration finds themself in hot water, they, they weaponize every single piece of the justice system that they have access to, including the very recent text message that we discussed a couple weeks ago, which was that, you know, hunter Biden literally threatening the Chinese company before there was a $5 million. 5 million put into their shell accounts from a Chinese corporation after he's or from a Ukrainian organization after he strong armed the head of Barisma, who then said he had 17 recordings of them. Interesting. So here's the article on that, which says that the Department of Justice has announced multiple indictments against Dr. Gao Luft, the Israeli American co-head of a Maryland think tank who gained notoriety as the missing witness in the investigation of Joe's Biden's corruption. The New York Post recently shared a video of left wherein he broke down the allegations made against Biden, and claimed that he had been arrested to prevent him from testifying to the House Oversight Committee with damning evidence against the first family. Now, long after coming outta the whistleblower left himself has been charged by the Department of Justice for allegedly engaging in multiple serious schemes in involving the Chinese and Iranians, alongside a former high ranking US government official. The charges, including numerous offenses, including failing to register under the Foreign Agent's Registration Act, arms trafficking, Iranian sanctions violations, and making false statements to federal agents while what a reach. The agency explained that Luft had allegedly conspired with others to advance the interest of the People's Republic of China. Oh. Who would've done that as agents of Chinese based principles without registering as foreign agents as required under US law. He supposedly used his position as co-director of the Think tank to recruit and pay the aforementioned government official at the behest of Chinese bosses to publicly support certain policies with respect to China. Hmm. Very interesting. Let's see if we can get the New York Post video if it's not gonna be so shaky for the full thing there. Here's the video. Good day. My name is Dr. Gal Loft. For the past 20 years, I have been the co-director of the Institute for the Analysis of Global Security, a Washington based think tank focused on energy security. For the past 15 years, I've been a resident of Israel. For four years, I was senior advisor to the China Energy Company, cfc at the same time of its dealings with the Biden family. Under normal circumstances, I would be testifying before Congress about my experience with C F C. Sadly, due to circumstances I shall describe here in this video I am forced to tell you this story via video. My ordeal goes back to a fatal decision I made in March of 2019 to share with the US government my knowledge about the Biden family's relations with cfc. As I said, it was in March of 2019, in a two day session at the US Embassy in Brussels. I insisted that the meeting. Take place in March because at the time there were rumors that Joe Biden was planning to run for president. I saw it as my civic duty to alert the government beforehand and give it enough time to probe the issue. I wanna be clear. I'm not a Republican. I'm not a Democrat. I have no political motive or agenda. I did it out of deep concern that if the Bidens were to come to power, the country would be facing the same traumatic Russia collusion scandal. Only this time it was China. Sadly, because of the DOJs coverup. This is exactly what happened. The d o J sent to Brussels, a delegation of six people, two prosecutors from the sudden District of New York, by the names of Daniel Reichental and Catherine Goche. Four F FBI agents. One of them was special agent Joshua Wilson from the Baltimore Field Office, which also happens to cover the state of Delaware. My man's dropping names. You asked yourself why did the government dispatch to Europe? So many people, why six, why not two? The answer is that they knew very well that I'm a credible witness, and that I have insider knowledge about the group and the individuals that be the she the family. Over an intensive two year, two day meeting. I shared my information about the Biden family's financial transactions with CFC, including specific dollar figures. This is a 13 minute video that you can go see. Was name Rob Walker the New York Post YouTube channel. Yet as we now as titled this Missing Biden Corruption case Witness, Dr. Galbo doj, the Whole 21 Details, allegations against President's Family Talk to Walker. But perhaps the most alarming information I revealed was of a MO within the d OJ who shared classified information with Hunter Biden and his Chinese partners. I told the d OJ that Hunter was closely associated with a very senior, retired, retired FBI official who had distinct physical characteristic. He had one eye. One of the FBI agents at the time even told me, you know, that would be very easy for us to find. There aren't that many one-eyed people in the bureau. The information I provided the FBI in March of 2019 was fully corroborated. Nine months later when the famous laptop belonging to Hunter Biden, which contained all the emails and receipts, was handed to the fbi. And guess who seized the laptop from the computer repair shop? It was special agent Joshua Wilson, who was with me in Brussels earlier. In other words, the FBI knew about from me about the Biden CFC deals before they got hold of the laptop, way before they had enough time to investigate the issue, but they didn't. After Brussels, I never heard back from the doj, but instead of showing appreciation for my whistle blowing, I became public enemy number one. Over the past four years, that followed me, my family, my friends, my associates. We were all harassed, intimidated, and finally I was prosecuted. Despite all that on the eve of the 2020 elections, I sent my lawyer to Washington to meet with then acting Deputy Attorney General Mr. Richard Donahue, to ensure he was informed about the information I had given his department in Brussels 19 month earlier. And also to warn him that there may still be a mole within the D O J. Mr. Donahue confirmed to my lawyer that he was aware of my claims, but now we learn from the I R S whistleblower that it was Rich Donahue himself who suspended the investigation. Few weeks earlier on September 4th, 2020, on the ground that it was quote too close to the elections. Finally, in February of this year, I was arrested in Cyprus on an extradition request from the Southern District of New York. Very soon. All right. I'll let you watch that video yourself. If you wanna go find it, I'll put it in the CK Austin Adams do sub stack.com, which will come out late tomorrow after the podcast comes out. But here's an article that kind of outlines what he's talking about with that was looking up while you were listening to that, the one eye F b I agent. And this comes from the New York Post where it says, hunter Biden used FBI Mole named one Eye to tip him off the China probes. It says, hunter Biden has an F B I mole named One Eye who tipped off his Chinese business partners that they were under investigation. According to the Israeli energy expert arrested in Cyprus last month on gun running charges. The House Oversight Committee is investigating the explosive claims that Dr. Gal Ga left the guy. We were just listening to a former Israeli Defense Forces Lieutenant Colonel with deep intelligence ties in Washington and Beijing, who says that he was arrested to stop him from revealing what he knows about the Biden family and FBI corruption details. He told the Department of Justice in 2019. Which he said was ignored. He first made the claims on February 18th on Twitter after being detained at a Cyprus airport as he prepared to board the plane to Israel. I've been arrested in Cyprus and politically motivated extradition request by the us, the US claiming that I'm an arms dealer. It would be funny if it weren't tragic. I've never been an arms dealer. Department of Justice is trying to bury me to protect Joe, Jim and Hunter Biden goes on to say that Luft remains in jail awaiting extradition, which is now just surfaced this or surfaced with this video after all this. This article was in March through his American lawyer, Robert Hanoch. Luft said that he tried four years ago to form the de Depart or to inform the Department of Justice of Chinese State controlled energy company c e, or C E F C, that had paid a hundred thousand dollars a month to President Biden's son Hunter in $65,000 to Joe's brother Jim in exchange for their FBI connections and use of the Biden name to promote China's belt or. Yeah. Belt and Road Initiative around the world. Left. Learned the scheme through his own relationship with hunter's, Chinese business partners, Patrick Ho and yay Ja Ming, chairman of C E F C. From 28 15 to 2018, left organized International Energy conferences in partnership with HO'S Think Tank, the nonprofit Chinese Energy Fund committee, C E F C, a front organization for Y's, C E F C Y confided to left that Hunter had an informant in the FBI or formerly of the Bureau, extremely well-placed, who had paid lots of money to provide sealed law enforcement information. The FBI mole was called One Eye. One Eye told ye that the Southern District of New York has, was investigating him or ho in late 2017, that an Asian and African and a Jewish guy were named on a sealed indictment. Said Heno. Soon after the Tipoff, ye offered Hunter 1 million to be his private counsel and flew to China. Leaving his wife, daughter, son, mother and nanny in his 50 million penthouse in 15 Central 15 Central Park West. He was detained in Shanghai three months later and disappeared. And that's where this all started. All right, so that article that I was just reading again, came from the New York Post and was titled hunter Biden used FBI Mole named One Eye to tip him off to Chinese probes, which was March 22nd, 2023. And now this guy is just resurfacing. And this just broke today. This is breaking news. There's really not a ton of information that came out from this interview. Go listen to it. Go check it out. And just again, like I said, Joe Biden and the h the Biden family are the single largest crime organization to ever hold the White House. So, Bar none. And we're seeing that with back to back to back to back. Things that are coming out from the text message of, of Hunter Biden's strong arming people to the laptop with legitimate claims of him being a pedophile with his own niece. All of the things that have come out with Joe Biden being called Petto Pete by his son. Could you imagine the field day that people would've had if that was Don Jr. Saying that about Donald Trump? Like in all of it's covered up by every news, media corporation, every one of the, the organizations within the government, including the fbi. It's disgusting. All right, now last but not least, last but not least second to last, but not least, let's go with last but not least, let's get into the deep dark side. Of aliens. It says, from 2000, from the late two thousands to the mid 2000 tens. I worked as a molecular biologist for a national security contractor in a program to study exo biospheric organisms. I will share with you a lot of information on the subject. Feel free to ask questions or ask for clarification. This was posted on Reddit five days ago, reposted by Joe Rogan, and then this guy deleted his account. Now it says that it seems like all of my comments are being deleted. I will post answers at the end of the message. I'm gonna move my computer closer to me here so I can actually read it for you guys without the stuttering, like you know, Joe Biden or Feder Fedderman. From the late two thousands to the mid 2000 tens, I worked as a molecular biologist for the National Security Council contractor in program to study exo biospheric organisms or ebos. The aim of the program was to el elucidate the genome and proteome basis for these organisms. Although the study of OBCs has been going on for decades and other programs, the new high throughput DNA sequencing technologies of the late nineties unblocked, stagnant research in this area, since then, several breakthroughs have led to significant advances in our understanding of the genome and protein of these beings. What we've learned so far has enabled us to outline some dis. Disconcerting perspectives about the place of our place in the universe. Briefly, we've discovered that the Ebo genome is a chimera of genomes from our biosphere and from an unknown one. They are artificial, ephemeral, and disposable organisms created for a purpose that still particularly alludes us. I'll be substantiating my statements after a brief introduction. The reason for disclosing these secrets is quite simple. I believe that every human being has the right to know the truth, and that to progress humanity needs to divest itself to a certain or divest itself of certain institutions and organizations that will probably not survive these revelations in the long term. I'm aware that I've had very little impact in this regard, but I still believe the small leaks are necessary to break the dam of misinformation on the subject. When the governments will eventually reveal these secrets, there will be undoubtedly be a societal upheaval, but in my opinion, the longer we wait, the worse it will be. I choose to divulge what I know anonymously out of selfishness for the wellbeing of myself and my family. I'm aware that this diminishes the reach and credibility of my message, but it's the furthest I'm willing to go. I chose this forum because it offers a good compromise between anon, an anonymy and an an anonymy. Like what is it? Defining NEMO anonymity, non anonymity in popularity. In order to protect my anonymity, I will be purposefully vague or even contradictory about the information that could identify me, date education role, et cetera. I'll even introduce red hearings. In this respect, I want to make it clear that any information related to the subject of the research will not be treated in this way. Before going any further, please excuse me if you find it difficult to understand what I'm explaining. Some parts of my text are very technical. It's difficult to understand the right balance between vulgarization and scientific explanation. I continue by talking about myself. What's the point of talking about me and knowing that the information will necessarily be misleading. I simply want to introduce a perspective of the type of people who work there. Normal scientists, I have a PhD in molecular biology. I didn't actively seek to become a part of the program. Rather, there was a stroke of luck that introduced me to one of the senior scientists. I met this person at a conference where I was presenting a poster on my PhD research. When I think back, I don't believe he was impressed by what I was presenting because it was quite frankly, a project that wasn't going anywhere. I think he was rather the most important aspect of a professional life, the attitude and the ease in which you make connections. Shortly afterwards, I graduated and received a call from the person offering me a position. At the time, everything pointed to me working in a regular laboratory. I did a series of three increasingly suspicious interviews and in a different location where my scientific background and knowledge became less and less relevant. The first was was with two of the senior scientists, the second and third with people who I've never seen again and who obviously not interested in science. Sometime after the interview, I was asked to go to a fourth location where that, where what seems like a corporate lawyer presented me with an nda. He made sure not only to explain every detail, but also that I understand the consequences of not respecting it. The first employment weeks were far by far the most memorable, although I spent most of the time in the depressing archive room. It consists almost exclusively of reading about the subject of study and to get us up to speed. There's no secret Wikipedia or even a reference guide. There are only dry reports, memos, presentations, procedures, and standard operating procedures. SOPs. These documents are almost exclusively about the biology of Ebos and there are also a few that deal with other subjects such as
