30 seconds. Did you ever think
0:02
you would make it? I feel
0:04
I'm so... It's like it takes sweet
0:06
victory. I know this life
0:08
meant for me. Yeah,
0:11
why would you bet on Goliath when we got Bet
0:13
David? Value payment, giving values
0:15
contagious. This world of entrepreneurs, we get
0:17
no value to haters. I didn't run, homie, look
0:19
what I've become. I'm the one. Okay,
0:24
so who's ruined
0:24
many people's lives the last 20 years? Let's
0:29
make a list, okay? If
0:32
we were to say who's ruined many people's lives the last 20 years, we can put
0:34
FBI there, we can put CIA
0:36
there, we
0:40
can put Clinton's there, we can put
0:42
CDC there, we
0:43
can put NIH there, you know,
0:46
we can put China there, we can put Fauci there, we
0:48
can put World Economic Forum there, we
0:51
can put, you know, you
0:54
realize where I'm going with this. We can put
0:57
Biden's family there, we can put McConnell,
0:59
we can
1:01
put so many names on this list,
1:03
right? Every one of
1:05
those guys hate Trump.
1:09
Every one of them hate Trump. Why? Well,
1:12
um...
1:15
Hmm. Exactly. Yeah,
1:18
but I don't think it's necessarily because, again, you
1:20
know, I think, again, the American public,
1:23
maybe it's Hollywood for a long time sees
1:25
things as kind of black and white. Oh, if,
1:27
you know, all the bad guys are against this guy, he
1:29
must be good. I don't, I think the real world doesn't
1:31
really function like that a lot. You know, by the time
1:34
you get to sort of be, rise to that
1:35
level to an extent, you
1:38
have to, you know, have made deals in
1:40
the past that aren't necessarily... I
1:42
don't disagree. You know what I mean? No, I
1:44
don't disagree. And like Trump's mentor, Roy Cohn,
1:46
insanely dirty. Of course. Insanely
1:48
dirty, you know? And a lot of, you know, the art
1:50
of the deal, he learned that from Cohn. You
1:53
know, and Cohn had learned it from Generoso Pope, who
1:55
was like this Italian, very close
1:57
friend of Frank Costello.
1:59
the guy that ran the cement industry, concrete
2:02
industry in New York. But everybody in the... It's
2:04
dirty. That's what... No, it's not
2:06
dirty. There's difference between... No? No,
2:09
there's difference between dirty. No, I disagree. What
2:11
I'm trying to... Okay, so for example, this is where I'm going with
2:13
this. To me, I
2:15
have a lot of people that you
2:17
would say are dirty. Okay?
2:20
And somebody could make a very clear argument that
2:22
these people based on their past are dirty. Okay?
2:25
And I've spent a lot of hours with these guys.
2:28
Mm-hmm.
2:28
And I sit down with them and I say, so tell me what
2:31
happened that one time when... And I, well,
2:33
let me tell you what happened. When we
2:35
were in the room, Paul Castellano, he did this and then
2:37
all of a sudden, God, he said this and that and I'm going, oh
2:39
wow, okay, got it. So hey, when
2:41
yourself, when you were in this situation and this
2:43
one guy that was robbing banks,
2:45
we had him on the thing, I'm like, when you were doing this and
2:48
why did you do this and how did the bank fall for
2:50
this and how were you able to do this? Okay,
2:52
so how do we defend against that, right? So
2:55
even right now, for example, you know, one of
2:57
the biggest reasons why Big Pharma is doing
2:59
what it's doing and it's taking advantage of people in America
3:01
is because the patent laws that we have. This
3:04
whole hatchman and wax, I think it's the one
3:06
of the senator from Utah, is a Republican and
3:08
the other congressman is from
3:10
California who's a Democrat. They come together,
3:12
they lower the, what
3:14
do you call it, the patent law to 14 years
3:17
and then in 1994 under Clinton,
3:19
they raised it to 20 years and
3:21
these insurance
3:24
companies come out with medication
3:25
and they can sell it for 20 years patent,
3:27
nobody else can compete with them and the
3:29
price point, one of the drugs we looked at, Vinny,
3:32
the price point of what they sold and then
3:35
the year when,
3:36
what do you call it, when the patent
3:38
expired, within three years,
3:41
the price of the medicine dropped 98.5%.
3:45
Let me say this one more time. It went from $1,000 to $15,
3:48
okay,
3:49
because
3:51
now everybody could compete in the marketplace of
3:53
Virginia. So you look at these laws, you're like, okay,
3:56
so I can see why Big Pharma would negotiate
3:58
and hire lobbyists to go. go in there to pass the law
4:01
to extend the patent for 20 years and
4:03
then figure out other ways. Some of
4:05
them are extending them for another 29 years, 39 years. Okay,
4:08
that's dirty. Let's figure out where to negotiate these
4:10
policies.
4:11
What I'm asking about here is, these
4:14
are all the top 10 list
4:17
of organizations that are the
4:19
ones that have destroyed America the most, divided
4:21
us the most, had us fighting against
4:24
each other. All of these guys hate
4:27
the Orange Hair. So why is that?
4:31
Well I think, I guess I would say
4:33
two things. In my
4:36
opinion, I think more than anything
4:38
else, these guys, more than they hate Trump,
4:40
I think they hate Trump's base more than
4:42
they hate Trump specifically. And
4:45
I would argue that because of the war on domestic
4:47
terror infrastructure being set up expressly
4:49
to target
4:50
people in that base and also anyone
4:52
that has sort of nationalist, a
4:56
nationalist bent, I would guess. And
4:59
Trump obviously postures
5:02
as being nationalist, and I don't think they like
5:04
that, and pushing to bring industry back to
5:06
the US, all of that stuff. The decision was
5:08
made explicitly by the people who actually
5:10
run America to move industry out
5:13
of the US many decades ago. They do not want
5:15
to bring it back. They
5:17
don't. And I
5:19
think if a lot of these people, like I mentioned earlier,
5:22
have this goal of making this global
5:24
economy, and a lot of that has since been wrapped into
5:26
agenda 2030 and the people
5:29
actually developing those policies, I don't
5:33
think they want a nationalist guy. There's
5:35
an effort globally to really vilify nationalism.
5:37
It doesn't matter if it's Trump, it's also Bolsonaro and
5:39
Brazil or whatever. And I don't think you have to like
5:42
them, but I think the reason they're so
5:44
against them is because they want to
5:46
vilify nationalism.
5:48
If I have to choose
5:50
between nationalism, and what's the
5:52
opposite of nationalism? Globalism.
5:55
Internationalism. Okay, exactly. Internationalism.
5:58
If I have to choose between being proud of my head.
5:59
heritage, my country, my land, and
6:02
everybody else around the world,
6:04
give me a good argument for
6:06
that being a bad thing. It's about
6:08
sovereignty, I think, though, at the end of the day. Because
6:11
when you remove national sovereignty,
6:13
then the people actually running the show are even
6:16
more unaccountable.
6:16
Yeah, so they'll use nationalism
6:18
to link it to Germany. But again, so here's what I want to... But
6:21
that's what has been going on, right? Trump is literally
6:23
Hitler. Putin's literally Hitler. If people fall for
6:25
their night, but let's kind of go to this. The
6:28
closest president I can find to
6:30
Trump, closest family, I
6:32
can see to Trump is John F. Kennedy, closest.
6:35
I think those two to me are very close.
6:38
Neither one of them have a nice resume.
6:41
They've done some stuff in the past, Kennedy, all that
6:43
stuff. But both of them, the people
6:45
of power, like the Lyndon Johnson, the Hoover,
6:47
the CIA, those guys hated
6:50
Kennedy. The same
6:52
people hate Trump. Trump
6:54
and Kennedy politically, believe it or not, are more
6:57
similar. Kennedy was a proud
6:59
Second Amendment NRA member today. Kennedy
7:01
is not a Democrat, but it's a hero to a lot
7:04
of Democrats. So what I watch, where's the following?
7:06
Here's a question for you, Whitney. The question for
7:08
you is this. What institution
7:11
has hurt America that
7:14
loves Trump? Yeah,
7:21
that would probably take some thinking to do. At least in the US,
7:23
it's pretty clear that by this point, I think- That's a good
7:25
question. You understand what I'm asking? I want you to
7:27
think about it. What institution, what institution
7:30
that hates America, that's hurt
7:32
America, loves Trump? I
7:36
can't even think of one. I want you to think about it because
7:38
you're more able to kind of see
7:41
it from the other side. What institution
7:44
that has hurt
7:46
America the last 20 years, loves and supports
7:48
Trump? Not from that
7:50
list that you said, from the foul cheese to the quiz. Can you tell
7:52
me another one? Maybe I'm not thinking about anybody else. I can't even
7:54
think of one.
7:55
It's a great question. I guess, here's
7:57
the thing that really concerns me about Trump as it
7:59
relates to national-
7:59
sovereignty. Recently he did an interview
8:02
and he said something about
8:04
about Israel, about how Israel essentially
8:07
he said it controls Congress and
8:09
how he thought that was a good thing.
8:11
Okay so regardless of how
8:13
you feel about Israel Zionism the US-Israel
8:15
relationship I do not think it's a good sign
8:18
to have your nationalist politicians say a
8:21
foreign power rightfully
8:23
unduly influences our national Congress.
8:26
But if you look at the history there
8:28
are Israeli espionage operations
8:31
that have happened. No question. Jonathan Pollard is probably
8:33
the best well-known where that
8:36
gravely undermined US national security
8:38
and I think those institutions support
8:40
Trump but they're not
8:41
actually. I can give an argument to give me
8:43
one more. Go one more, go two more,
8:45
go three more. Adam you're here what are you thinking? You're
8:47
saying that institutions that give
8:50
me any institutions or individuals
8:52
that have hurt America that love Trump. I'm
8:55
actually curious. By the way if you're watching this comment
8:58
below and hash debate each other I'm really curious.
9:01
I don't know all the institutions this isn't my world.
9:03
I mean from the FBI. This is you research
9:06
your you you've been following politics for a good 20
9:08
years
9:09
you know you're in it what is Rob yourself
9:12
what what institution I'm actually curious right now
9:15
what institution that's made our lives
9:17
worse that made people stay home
9:20
during COVID that force
9:22
people to do shit they don't want to do. Okay
9:24
about COVID though Trump still is
9:27
really into operation warp speed
9:29
and what that produced. Okay. Declines to distance
9:31
himself from any sort of the
9:33
vaccine
9:34
stuff. Fine so use that one that's one
9:36
so let's so he
9:37
operation warp speed that you try to speed
9:40
up getting vaccine but the reality
9:42
is Pfizer didn't announce that they got the vaccine two
9:44
days after the election which didn't help them anyways.
9:46
Yeah but what I'm saying
9:48
is I don't I don't think that is
9:51
that hurt Americans it was not a good idea
9:53
to put the military specifically DARPA people
9:56
in charge of that who have sort of DARPA
9:58
tends to have sort of this matter.
11:54
example
12:01
and personally I would challenge Trump on that when
12:03
it comes to the America First stuff but at the same time
12:05
when you're talking about the
12:07
you know the Republican Party
12:09
one out of 20 institutions you just mentioned
12:11
that's fine but in terms
12:14
of undermining the claim of America First
12:16
I think that is something that he definitely needs
12:18
to address what I like that you do I'm
12:21
not you you're you're the pro here
12:23
you're in the world that you are and that you go in
12:25
and you find stuff right that's your job you're very
12:27
good at it I would be very curious
12:30
if you went
12:32
and you investigated the
12:35
one guy that was assassinated and
12:37
the other guy that was character assassinated
12:40
in ways no one's ever been character assassinated
12:42
before why is that why are
12:44
those two families feared as
12:46
much as they were feared is it because
12:48
they were doing so many side deals I don't think so
12:51
no no so so that's my so what I'm trying
12:53
to find that is because think about this here's what we want to
12:55
do
12:56
there's two ways to to
12:59
to would we like
13:01
to see more people who
13:03
love America that are not willing to
13:06
bend their backs for anybody and
13:08
negotiate anything just to be invited
13:10
to those cool parties okay yeah obviously
13:12
that would be better but is Trump that guy
13:15
I'm not saying if Trump is that guy what I'm saying but but
13:17
here's what I'm saying to you I'm saying go
13:19
investigate him and go
13:22
write something on him and Kennedy link
13:24
those two families and then rate them
13:27
write whatever dirt or anything
13:29
you want to find but then also ask why
13:32
do these organizations if we
13:34
were to rank okay if we were to rank the last 60 years 1964 1963 till
13:36
today let's go November of 1963 till
13:41
today right that's 60 years from
13:44
the last 60 years from your perspective
13:47
give me the five agencies
13:49
individuals
13:51
organizations that have destroyed
13:53
America the most the five the top five
13:55
man really
13:57
putting me on the spot I mean no I'm not saying you know
13:59
exactly what the top five but in your opinion what do you think
14:01
are the top five? Um, alright. It's
14:04
um, well I guess it's pretty broad.
14:07
A lot of corporate America
14:09
would be up there for sure. Can you give a name,
14:11
specific name? Multinational corporations. Big
14:14
Pharma, IBM,
14:16
a lot of the big tech companies
14:19
then and now for sure.
14:21
Okay, Big Pharma, IBM. Building this transnational
14:23
power structure ultimately at the end of the day. Right,
14:26
who else? I'd like to throw the Fed in there. Okay. Federal Reserve?
14:28
Yeah. Okay. Who
14:30
else? Or you can just broaden that and make it banks. The
14:32
big banks. Okay. Central banks
14:34
are the biggest banks, right? Commercial, corporate.
14:36
I got all that together. What else would you say? Definitely
14:39
the CIA. Definitely the CIA. Department of Justice.
14:41
Would you put DOJ over FBI? Like how,
14:43
who, how would? Well DOJ oversees the FBI technically,
14:46
right? Yeah, okay. So let's put the DOJ
14:48
So let's put DOJ and FBI together. How about
14:50
Who else? Lobbyists. Yeah, but lobbyists
14:53
are revolving door on the payroll stuff. She's right. So ultimately
14:55
that's the corporate side subverting the public
14:57
sector
14:57
or military industrial complex. Ahoy,

15:53
But five years after Jedi Fallen
15:55
Order, follow Cal Kestis in his increasingly
15:58
desperate fight in the new video game.
15:59
Star Wars Jedi Survivor.
16:02
No longer a Padawan, Cal has grown
16:05
into a powerful Jedi Knight. As the
16:07
memories and expectations of the Jedi Order
16:09
weigh on him, his crusade against the Empire
16:11
has only become more perilous. But
16:14
how far is he willing to go to save those
16:16
closest to him? Star Wars Jedi
16:18
Survivor is available on April 28th and
16:21
is rated T for Teen.
16:22
Definitely. You want to put those guys? Okay, like the military
16:24
industrial complex? In terms of that military
16:27
industrial complex, in terms of how people think
16:29
of that, I would say the contractors.
16:32
General dynamics, insanely
16:34
corrupt. That's the Crown family I mentioned
16:36
earlier. They run that, insanely corrupt.
16:39
Lester Crown, the Pentagon tried to get his security
16:41
clearance revoked three times.
16:44
And they couldn't do it because higher ups
16:46
kept shutting it down. So perfect, let's do this. Let's
16:48
stay on this. This is very helpful, let's continue. Because I
16:50
think this is good. So we got big pharma, we got
16:53
IBM, we got Fed. We got
16:55
big banks. I would say big
16:57
tech is better. Okay, big tech.
17:00
Then we said CIA, DOJ, FBA
17:02
combined together. Military industrial
17:04
complex, fine. Now give
17:06
me individuals. What families,
17:09
names, the last 60 years, since
17:12
November of, to November of 1963.
17:16
Not 22nd, since November
17:18
1st of 1963.
17:20
Till today, which top families
17:23
have destroyed America the most? Okay, Rockefellers,
17:25
number one, probably.
17:26
Who else? After that, I'd
17:29
put the Chicago families up there. The Crowns
17:31
and the Pritzkers. I'd probably put them together. Yeah.
17:34
Chicago got it, who else? All
17:38
right, the opioid crisis, the Sacklers.
17:41
Okay, the Sacklers? Because that, I mean, not
17:44
enough people talk about that. But that you could sort of
17:46
rope into big pharma. Like some of the big
17:49
companies that are tied to suspect stuff going
17:51
on with the anthrax attacks and also with COVID
17:53
stuff. Emergent BioSolutions,
17:57
they make a killing off of selling Narcan.
17:59
They have a money. monopoly on Narcan too. So we got
18:01
three, Rockefeller, the Chicago,
18:03
the Pritzker, you put them together, the Opioid, the
18:06
Sacklers, who else? Well,
18:09
again, I think when you're talking
18:11
about banking interest, a lot of these tend to
18:13
be transnational. You have some of these old
18:15
money banks from Europe. Give
18:18
me names, family. Rothchild.
18:21
Yeah, I'd probably put the Rothschilds on there for sure, but
18:23
they openly made an alliance with the Rockefellers
18:26
not that long ago. Who else? These
18:29
are just families? Probably talking about individuals like Henry Kissinger.
18:32
Names, families. It could be Kissinger, Clinton,
18:34
Biden, people who have sold America.
18:36
Well, Kissinger sold America out, definitely.
18:38
I'm here because of Kissinger.
18:40
You know that. Oh, really? I'm
18:43
from Iran. Kissinger was supposed to help Iran.
18:45
The Shah, he did it in the last minute. The
18:47
Shah fell and then catastrophic issues
18:49
happened. Khomeini shows up. Anyways,
18:52
that's a whole different story. So Kissinger, who
18:54
else would you put us top for?
18:58
What are the names that we want to say? Do we want to
19:00
say Johnson, Lyndon Johnson? Yeah, the Bushes,
19:02
the Clintons, for sure, but they're ICU
19:04
and the S Who?
19:07
Dulles? Dulles?
19:08
Yeah, Allen Dulles. Or Sullivan and Cromwell,
19:10
which is their law firm that they ran forever. That could
19:12
be a huge list. Okay,
19:15
so you don't have Clinton or Biden Sierra at all.
19:17
You don't think they're dead in full? I would think the Clintons, Bushes,
19:19
Bidens, they ... Yeah. You
19:22
put all of them together. Okay.
19:24
They're
19:24
different sides of just the same crime scene, especially
19:27
the Bushes and the Clintons. There's too much weird
19:29
stuff around them, especially when you look at things like Iran
19:32
Contra. Like I mentioned earlier, Bush covered
19:34
for Mark Middleton. They like step in
19:36
for
19:36
each other when they need to. So here's my question. You
19:38
ready? All right. So here we go.
19:41
Okay. Which one of these
19:43
loves Trump? Yeah, I don't
19:46
think they do. That's the point. The point
19:48
I'm trying to make to you today
19:50
is I would love ... because I do
19:52
so many different things right now. I wish I had time
19:54
to do investigative journalism. I just don't have the luxury
19:57
to do it right now. Okay. But that's why
19:59
I love for somebody
19:59
like you, who if this interests
20:02
you and if you're inspired by it, go
20:04
do those two families. Sure, but I do
20:06
think you know if you're talking about Trump specifically,
20:09
you know I do think he has some conflicts
20:11
of interest and has for a long
20:12
time. Sure, I don't disagree. Yeah,
20:14
so you know at the end of the day if
20:17
the issue is
20:18
let's stop the vilification
20:21
of nationalism, let's make moves to
20:23
protect our national sovereignty, I think that
20:25
has to be mass movement
20:27
from the American public because
20:30
you know I see what you're saying but at the same time I
20:32
think so many people in the United States whether
20:34
it's been instilled in them through education
20:37
or culture or whatever seem
20:40
to think that as long as we get the right guy in
20:42
the White House everything's gonna magically fix
20:44
itself in this country and I do not think that
20:46
is possible. You know believe
20:48
what you want to believe about Trump, he came in and
20:50
you know 2016 with great intentions and
20:54
all of that if you want to believe that I don't necessarily
20:56
believe that but if you do you know he wasn't
20:58
able to do that
20:59
why? One guy can't fix it. You
21:01
know Robert F Kennedy Jr. running right now you
21:03
know he's obviously very different than a lot of these
21:05
guys. Do you think if he got in he could fix
21:08
it all? I you know I think the problem
21:10
is so big at this point and that
21:12
so many of these institutions we've been naming off it's
21:14
the it's the most powerful institutions
21:17
in the US government. You know they said before
21:19
you know like with Nixon and Watergate oh it's
21:21
just you know some rotten apples in the barrel but keep
21:23
the barrel.
21:24
I'm telling you the barrel is rotten
21:27
and the only way we can fix that in this
21:29
country is that people have to realize
21:31
that and people have to start taking responsibility
21:33
for
21:34
their own lives. But what does that mean though? That's a good motivational
21:36
speech but what does that mean? Here's what it means.
21:38
What is what is so what do you need
21:41
to be self-sufficient as a community as
21:43
an individual as a family?
21:44
Not relying on the government. Not but also
21:46
multinational corporations right
21:49
we have outsourced from our communities from
21:51
our country almost everything we produce to
21:53
foreign powers that don't like us right
21:55
or we're in you know trillions of dollars
21:58
in debt to our ostensible main
21:59
So I would argue that's because
22:02
we have our government, corporations,
22:04
but the American people have co-signed it because they've
22:06
been told this is more convenient, this will be cheaper,
22:09
blah, blah, blah, outsourced. So
22:11
much of what we need to survive as a people,
22:13
as communities, as families, to
22:17
people that don't like us. And that's not necessarily
22:19
just China here, right? That's these corporations,
22:22
these elite families that own
22:25
most of corporate America and the banks and what have you. They
22:27
don't like the little people.
22:28
Yeah. So if you're listening

22:35
And just in case something happens here,

two, text the word podcast to three,
22:44
one, zero, three, four, zero, one, one, three, two,
22:46
for anything that we do the next live event.
22:49
And maybe if you would like to have a Whitney web
22:51
at a live event at our studio in the future, let us know.
22:54
But Texas, there will be announcing the next live here as well. Let's
22:56
continue. Okay.
22:58
So I agree. I think the challenge
23:01
is a couple of different things. One is
23:03
we think one person can save America. When
23:05
is the next Kennedy? When is the next Reagan going to
23:07
be here? It's us. I fully agree with you.
23:10
I agree with you. But I think people like
23:12
you are very important. I think we need
23:14
to protect people like you because I
23:16
think people like you are a gem. We
23:18
need more of you. It takes a lot of courage
23:21
and sacrifice in your personal life to
23:23
want to study these types of topics. This
23:25
is not an easy job and profession
23:27
you've chosen. I salute
23:28
you for the job that you do. To me, it's
23:30
a form of public service. And
23:33
we're not paying taxes for a person like you. You're independent.
23:35
You're doing this for us. We thank you for it. You're very
23:37
important. I think individually we need to
23:39
stop relying on the government. So I think one
23:41
of the things that is anybody that pushed
23:44
a lot of entitlements the last 60 years and got more
23:46
Americans to be relying on the government, I think
23:48
they screwed America as well. They got people not to
23:51
realize what their capabilities are.
23:53
That's perfect. But the problem here
23:55
for me,
23:56
what I think immediately, those are long
23:59
term. solutions for us to
24:01
become independent, responsible, not
24:04
relying on government and take care of ourselves.
24:06
I get it. But
24:08
I also think this person we're looking at
24:10
to be able to get in there and do the work is
24:13
not going to be a person
24:15
that looks and walks and
24:17
talks the way you want that person. Well,
24:19
sure. But here's what I worry about too with the 2024 election. Given how
24:21
the other elections have been,
24:24
what's going to stop either side from being fraud,
24:27
right? Or Russia get 2.0
24:30
or some other kind of thing. Well
24:33
the thing is our elections, the
24:35
legitimacy of them is already questioned
24:38
by a massive portion of the country
24:39
after 2020. No, but both sides have
24:41
been Clinton asking 2016. No, I know. But you flip
24:43
it the other side, it'll be the other side again.
24:46
You know what I mean? That's something both of them
24:48
do. And we just have to accept the fact that when people, you
24:50
know, NFL, well, they cheated, that's who won the suit. Okay,
24:53
got it. No problem. But let's
24:54
say Trump gets in the national security
24:56
state and all these other institutions hate
24:58
him, right? And they'll put their weight
25:00
behind the fraud claim. What happens then?
25:03
To say what? They cheated to do? Oh
25:05
yeah, that there was cheating, that there was whatever, foreign
25:07
interference, blah, blah, blah. No, we don't know
25:09
if it's going to happen. But my concern is I think
25:12
we have already really started
25:14
to move away from democracy, that
25:17
we are currently living in illusion
25:19
of democracy and illusion of public choice.
25:20
I'd like to see us go back to the republic where the individual
25:22
is protected because right now the individual is not protected
25:24
from the majority. But think about the DNC, even in the primaries
25:26
with Bernie Sanders. Yeah, they're cheating him.
25:28
I mean, they screwed him. Totally.
25:31
He was the guy that... And now they're saying they won't even
25:33
have a debate in the democratic
25:35
primary because RFK Jr. against
25:37
Biden, he's going to get... So
25:38
what's your solution though? What's your solution? So
25:41
for example, you're saying, what if we get this person Trump wins
25:43
and DeSantis wins? Okay, what if we get RFK
25:45
that wins? What if we get, you know, Biden that
25:47
wins? We know what's going to happen if Biden wins, right? We
25:50
know what's going... But if Trump wins and he
25:52
goes in or DeSantis win, he goes in, there's
25:54
a difference between those two winning. If Trump
25:56
wins and he goes in, they're
25:58
going to try to do everything.
25:59
they can and everything's been false. Durham
26:02
report, you know, the recent thing, Clinton's
26:04
involvement, Obama's involvement. There's
26:06
so many things that have been proven that
26:09
were fake, the credibility is huge. But
26:11
what's been done?
26:12
Where's the accountability?
26:14
From whose end? His end? From anyone's end.
26:16
All these people, I mean, the stuff that has been,
26:19
these people have gotten away with in an
26:21
actual election interference.
26:22
Are you kidding me? Like, you know who was enemy
26:24
to state number one when Trump was president? No,
26:27
I'm not talking, I'm talking about like the Russiagate
26:29
stuff. Oh, yeah. And I don't think I
26:31
don't think I think honestly, those
26:33
guys are morons if they keep doing that, because that business
26:35
model is not working for them. They keep losing money when they do
26:37
that. They're
26:38
not creative either. I mean, the point is let
26:40
them do that. They have
26:42
they have no moral authority. Democrats,
26:45
this guy was a guy that believed in the Russia
26:47
stuff.
26:48
First time him and I spoke when I was going to bring them here
26:50
to be with us on the team, I didn't know if I was ready for a guy like
26:52
this.
26:53
I question, like, what do you think about this? Can you reason?
26:55
Are you able to do this? Well, I think I said, what do you think
26:57
about the Russia deal? Eventually, he came in and
26:59
now he reads it. He says, I can't believe they did this. So
27:02
and he's a guy
27:03
that is a worker, he's independent, he doesn't
27:05
rely on the government, he takes care of himself, he's done very
27:08
well for himself. And now he's sitting
27:10
there saying, I don't know if I like I'm not a Trump
27:12
guy, but I don't know what they're doing here. There
27:14
is more people in his camp. Sure.
27:17
And then I just submit one thing, we talked about
27:19
this list of institutions that have basically
27:21
harmed America. The number
27:24
one item on this list that we left
27:26
out is the media and mainstream
27:28
media and the lies and the narratives that they told
27:30
the American public. And I'm
27:33
the type of person that prides myself on digesting
27:35
a whole appetite of media, especially
27:38
now. But
27:40
there's a there's a wide swath of Americans
27:43
that are just basically just peripherally
27:45
reading the news. Yeah, I guess it's Russiagate thing. Yep.
27:47
I guess the generous six thing, I guess
27:49
the Dominion thing. It's like we
27:52
don't have time to basically pick
27:54
apart each of these stories. We're all not Whitney
27:56
web, we can diagnose all these wild
27:58
different stories and just accumulate. them and diagnose
28:00
them, most people are like, yeah, I guess there's a Russia
28:03
thing going on. Boom.
28:03
Here's what concerns me though. So
28:06
based on what you guys have been saying, and it's very true,
28:08
collapse in mainstream media is collapsing.
28:11
And we're in a very different position now than 2016 or
28:14
really any other time as far as that
28:16
metric is concerned. But what
28:18
concerns me is that, okay, so
28:21
with COVID, you had this huge push to turn everything,
28:23
move everything to the digital sphere, right? And
28:26
at the same time, you're trying to move everyone, everything,
28:28
all stuff online, but you're also making this big
28:31
push to control what's online. Yeah.
28:33
And so you're having this push to
28:36
censor, you know, Twitter files touched
28:38
on that, obviously, and there's this talk from like Matt
28:40
Taibbi and others about the censorship industrial complex.
28:43
That is a very real thing. And,
28:45
you know, for someone like me, the threat of censorship
28:48
is very real, you know, I did real factual
28:51
reporting on stuff going on with COVID-19,
28:54
and I lost my Patreon.
28:56
They admitted that there was nothing untrue
29:00
in the report they censored me for, but
29:02
they thought it might affect vaccine uptake.
29:04
And so they took away
29:05
all my money. Well, what it doesn't just all come
29:07
down to one word, which is control. It
29:10
doesn't want to control what you say, they want to control you spend your
29:12
money that we're going to show your social credit
29:14
score. So this is why I mentioned
29:16
there's this push into these digital systems, everything's
29:18
going to be online or on the cloud or whatever.
29:20
And at the same time, they're controlling,
29:23
they're making an unprecedented push for
29:25
control over that digital sphere. So we're
29:27
being herded to a place and they're creating
29:29
all of these all of this infrastructure to control
29:31
what we can see in here, once we're all
29:34
stuck there, essentially. So you
29:36
have collapse and trust of mainstream media. The
29:38
goal, it seems like is to take out everyone that won't
29:41
say what mainstream media says. And at the same time,
29:43
you're having mainstream
29:44
media creepingly being replaced by
29:47
chat GPT and things like that. They're
29:49
saying that by 2025, 90% of all the
29:51
content, media content online
29:53
is going to be chat GPT generated. So
29:56
you don't have regular people
29:57
telling you what to say, how are people going to know what's real?
29:59
and what's not at that point. And now there's
30:02
all this talk of deep fakes, A.I. art has
30:04
gone into this new era. You can make
30:06
anyone with A.I. art be in a picture with Jeffrey
30:08
Epstein, you know what I mean? So, this is
30:10
a really unprecedented situation. And to think
30:13
that these institutions we've been listing
30:15
off those actors wouldn't go
30:17
throw the kitchen sink at us
30:19
to get what they want. I think that might
30:21
be kind of naive to think that because they're
30:24
making a total push for control
30:26
and they're gonna put out all the stops because if
30:28
they don't get it, they lose, right? And
30:30
stuff will start to come out. They don't
30:32
want that to happen, you know? So, this
30:35
is, they're giving it their all and
30:38
I don't think they're gonna win at the end of the day, but how much
30:40
damage do they cause?
30:41
But they're gonna have plenty of damage. Well,
30:44
and I was gonna say, cause Pat,
30:47
I think it was the podcast with Giuliani and
30:49
them where we were talking about the hope and having
30:51
hope and having faith, not losing all
30:53
that hope, but just from everything that we talked about, when you
30:55
from Epstein to these guys, it's like, are
30:57
we wasting our time? I 100% appreciate
31:00
getting it out there, getting the word out there, but are
31:02
we wasting our time in the sense that these people have
31:04
set up the pieces of the game where no matter
31:07
what, we could literally just, like the whole
31:09
Durham report came out. FBI,
31:11
Department of Justice, Obama administration, Hillary,
31:14
they all peddled this lie. The whole Russia, it was
31:16
all BS. They framed Michael Flynn, three-star
31:18
general. It just came out, the report's in your
31:20
face. Nobody's gonna go to jail.
31:23
This episode is brought to you by
31:25
the new Disney Plus original series, American
31:28
Born Chinese. Based on the graphic
31:30
novel by Jean Lui-Nyang, American Born
31:32
Chinese tells the story of an average teenager
31:35
that becomes entangled in a battle with Chinese
31:38
mythological gods. This star-studded
31:40
cast includes Academy Award winners, Michelle
31:42
Yeoh and Ki-Hui Kwon, plus Daniel
31:44
Wu, Jim Liu and Ben Wang. American
31:47
Born Chinese, premiering May 24, exclusively
31:50
on Disney Plus.
31:52
Hillary's gonna walk free, nothing happens, are
31:55
we just wasting our time with all these, all
31:57
these just
31:58
evil players? Cause at the end of the day, what? What
32:00
really happens to them?
32:01
Yeah, so the lack of accountability
32:04
thing is a major problem. And again, I
32:06
think the main issue we need to be looking here is public
32:08
trust, right? There's no public trust in the media.
32:11
The public trust of institutions is dwindling.
32:14
But what do those institutions do when they realize
32:16
no one trusts them anymore?
32:18
They double down. And they're not gonna give up control
32:20
easily, you know what I mean? So
32:22
what are they planning to do?
32:25
And this is why I always go back to this
32:27
stuff that's been set up by the Biden administration,
32:29
but it's antecedent scope before Biden, this
32:31
war on domestic terror infrastructure. All
32:34
of the people that were counter terror experts
32:36
and developing AI to hunt insurgents in Iraq
32:38
are now developing AI and policies
32:41
to go after regular Americans that
32:44
are accused of domestic terror. And
32:46
if you read the policy papers from the Biden
32:48
administration, their definition of what
32:50
is a domestic terrorist is extremely broad.
32:53
It's extremely broad. It includes
32:55
people who don't like, even
32:57
on the left, the advance of multinational
33:00
corporations and global capitalism
33:02
and stuff, are people who are perceived as being
33:05
too anti-authority and too anti-government.
33:07
Or
33:07
parents speaking up at school board meetings saying
33:09
they don't want their kids learning about sex
33:12
and they're yelling at those meetings. They're like, oh, you're a domestic
33:14
terrorist.
33:14
So the problem is, how are
33:17
they trying to do this? It's with AI, it's with
33:20
data mining off of social media. I
33:22
would say if people really want to shut
33:25
down this machine, get off of legacy social
33:27
media.
33:28
Okay, yeah. But
33:29
again, I know that's
33:31
hard for people because people are so into
33:33
it. And like me as a journalist, a lot of people won't read my
33:35
stuff if I don't use it and blah, blah, blah. But
33:38
you have to look at what they're setting
33:40
up and they wouldn't be setting
33:42
up this war on domestic terror infrastructure
33:44
where it could be you unless they were
33:46
planning to use it at some point. And all
33:48
they need, Bill Barr said it a
33:51
few years ago when he was attorney general. He
33:54
was talking about getting a backdoor in encryption,
33:56
eliminating essentially any sort of privacy-enhancing
33:59
technology
33:59
for the
33:59
public, he was saying at some point
34:02
there's going to be a big event that will
34:04
galvanize public opinion around these issues.
34:06
It sort of reminds me about the PNAC, New
34:08
Pearl Harbor stuff before 9-11, you know? But
34:13
it's true. You have this one crisis that comes
34:15
and there's all this fear, this is the boogeyman, this
34:17
is what we had to do to stop it. Because
34:19
if you think, like I mentioned earlier, we're being herded into
34:21
this corral of the digital
34:24
control grid, I guess, and they're
34:26
trying, you know, and-
34:27
Historically what I think. It's the
34:29
carrot and the stick, you know what I mean? Yeah, I'll totally
34:31
get that, explained very clearly.
34:36
But you
34:38
know the whole thing when some people say, well, you know, what if you
34:40
only had one hour to live, what would you do? Like,
34:43
dude, if I had one hour to live, I wouldn't be here right
34:45
now. Let's stay home. Do that. So
34:49
let me get this straight.
34:50
For the rest of the year, you want me to treat
34:53
my life as if I only have one hour to
34:55
live. Yeah, I'd be home for the entire year.
34:57
So is that what you want me to do? Well, no,
34:59
still be effective, but what if you had one hour to
35:01
live? Dude, I get that. And I've said this myself.
35:04
It's an element of, this is
35:06
why I think I'm working too hard. This is why I'm doing
35:08
this, go to- So there's so many arguments
35:11
with contradictions that we all give. Our
35:13
parents told us, we tell our kids, we
35:16
tell our audience, you know, the media tells us,
35:18
leaders tells us, books tells us, the world
35:20
is filled with a lot of contradictions. And
35:23
somehow, someway, we have to find some
35:26
level of reasonable
35:27
decision for us to make that comes
35:29
with contradictions. For example, you
35:33
notice all things like, well, one
35:35
person's not going to save this and it's not, it's
35:37
got to be us. Okay. I
35:40
think that's partially true.
35:42
Long term, it's got to be us. But
35:45
it was one person that was
35:47
able to have the courage
35:49
to go against Hitler, and
35:52
it wasn't Chamberlain.
35:54
It was another guy named Churchill.
35:56
And if there is no Churchill,
35:58
with the fearlessness that he had.
35:59
No matter how much shit you talk about his past, how
36:02
he was, who he was, husband, you know. If
36:04
there's no Churchill, you and I are probably speaking German
36:06
right now. Or the world will be a different world
36:08
today, okay? Every once
36:11
in a while, during times like this, you
36:13
still have to have somebody speak on your behalf.
36:16
No, I'm not saying that. A lot of people like follow your
36:18
content. They feel like you're speaking
36:20
for them.
36:21
So why do you do so well?
36:23
Because there's millions of people around the world that are
36:26
saying, dude, she's speaking. She's
36:28
me. I feel like she's talking on my behalf. Great.
36:31
I think we need somebody that's going to get
36:33
up there
36:34
and piss a lot of people off. When I see
36:36
candidates that are already
36:38
brokering deals with everybody pre-election,
36:42
I already know that person's not going to do what American needs
36:44
to do today. I already know that person's
36:47
going to get into the White House and they're going to do what? Hey,
36:49
I'm into the White House. I'm this. The
36:53
person to do that, I still do
36:55
believe because
36:56
the angle of just thinking it's us,
36:59
that gets us from that trusting in the voting system
37:02
and even to show up to vote.
37:03
Here's what I mean when I say the
37:06
one-guy thing, one-guy-can't-save-it, because
37:08
what happens is a lot of people feel
37:10
like, oh, as long as I vote for that one guy and he gets
37:12
in, then I don't have to do anything
37:13
anymore. But that's how a lot of
37:15
people react, okay? So I'm not saying
37:18
we shouldn't, you know, that no good to
37:20
call a hitting a good guy or a better
37:22
guy in the White House. You don't, I don't.
37:24
No,
37:24
but there are people that do that. And so that's why I try
37:26
and stress in my work, especially in today's climate.
37:29
I mean, there's this crazy banking crisis going
37:31
on and it's not going to get better before
37:33
it gets worse, right? So what do you
37:35
do tomorrow if you wake up and your
37:38
money's gone, right? What are you going to do? How are
37:40
you going to feed your family? What if the internet
37:42
shut down? I mean, I
37:44
encourage people to think about that type of
37:46
building, that type of resilience in their lives, because
37:49
the less dependent you are in
37:51
the system, the less,
37:52
the harder it is for you to be enslaved by
37:54
that system. You know? So that's what
37:56
I'm trying to say about, you know, personal
37:59
responsibility
37:59
to stop outsourcing your needs to
38:02
these people in this system, right? Would
38:05
it be better to get someone who speaks
38:07
truth to power into the White House? I'm not saying
38:10
that would be bad at all. What I'm saying
38:12
is a lot of people tend to go back to sort
38:14
of armchair activism or political
38:17
seasons over, I'm not gonna fight for my rights anymore
38:19
because now I've got the guy up there.
38:20
I do think you need
38:22
somebody to speak on your behalf. Yeah,
38:25
sure, but the problem is a lot of people
38:28
to not do anything, you know what I
38:30
mean? The reality is the pretto theory
38:32
has been around for a while. The 80-20 rule, 80%
38:34
is not gonna do anything anyway. So we're not relying
38:37
on the 80% to do something. I've
38:39
been part of the 80% when I was trying to get everybody
38:41
else to save my life and I'm like, this shit doesn't work. I wanna
38:43
be part of the community that can stand up
38:45
and be responsible for them. So I said I shifted. I
38:48
had a 1.8 GP in high school, trust me. There's
38:50
no one in high school that's gonna say, Patrick Bet David
38:52
was gonna do something big with his life. Finally,
38:55
I'm like, get off your ass and go do something. I joined
38:57
the Army at 18, life changed. So I'm
38:59
with you there,
39:00
but I also do believe this
39:02
notion, like you know how single men
39:04
and women
39:05
who wait until they get married,
39:07
what's the problem the older you get?
39:10
What is the problem, are you married?
39:12
I don't know if you're married or not. Married with kids, right? Okay,
39:14
so you're married. I'm a single mom
39:16
of a kid. Okay, perfect, okay. So the whole
39:19
concept with marriage, right? The whole concept with marriage.
39:22
You wait to get married, okay? Wait
39:25
till 35, wait till you're 40.
39:26
Wait
39:29
till you're 45, wait till you're 50. What's
39:32
the problem the longer we wait until we get married?
39:34
What are we really saying to the world? What we're
39:36
really saying to the world is what? I'm gonna
39:38
wait until I find what? The
39:40
perfect person. Guess what? Good
39:43
luck. The older you get, the
39:45
harder it's gonna be to find that
39:47
perfect person, right? So there is
39:50
part of that argument that also has
39:52
a leak in it. There is risk
39:54
in marriage, right? There is
39:57
risk in having kids. There is risk
39:59
in...
39:59
saying I think this guy could be the right guy,
40:02
but it's even riskier to say, no,
40:04
no, no, no, no, I'm
40:06
not going to do this. There's risk. Relationships
40:09
don't work. Kids don't. There's pain in
40:11
that stuff. So I think for us,
40:14
the one part I absolutely agree with, that
40:16
we got to take full responsibility. I think the other part is
40:18
as well, hey,
40:19
who do you think that is the least corrupt
40:21
person
40:23
that is not loved by the corrupt institutions
40:25
that you think could go and fight
40:28
these corruption that has the highest
40:30
likelihood? Try to support that person. If you
40:32
think it's a RFK, go
40:34
for it. If you think it's Tulsa, go for it. If you think it's a, even
40:36
a libertarian guy, we had a guy named Dave Smith. I actually
40:38
like this guy. I hope he does something. If it's
40:40
a Dave Smith, go for it. If you think it's a Trump, go
40:43
for it. If you think it's Vivek, go for it. But find
40:45
someone that you think could fight that corruption.
40:47
What I like about Vivek is he's ran
40:49
a company that's worth a couple billion dollars and
40:52
he's calling out all the shit.
40:53
He's calling out all these weird institutions. Support
40:55
a guy like that. Do be
40:58
independent, but also do
41:00
sell and support the guys that you think have
41:02
the highest likelihood of fighting
41:04
the things that you also want someone to fight
41:06
for. I think both are necessary. Sure.
41:11
Well, you know, but I mean, the only thing I
41:13
would say is like, you know, if you have more limited means,
41:15
limited finances, I would personally
41:18
think it would make sense to invest in, I don't know,
41:20
your resilient food supply for
41:22
you and your family and things like that before donating
41:24
instead of donating it
41:25
all. I'm not saying don't. I mean, I'm not, this
41:27
actually wasn't a, I wasn't trying to raise
41:30
money for anybody and I'm never going to get into politics
41:32
because I'm not, I'm not born here. I don't have
41:34
any interest for being a governor. I enjoy building businesses.
41:37
You know, will we do something to advise
41:39
and all this other stuff? We're already doing that anyways and
41:42
indirectly with certain camps. That's a different
41:44
story,
41:45
but for me it's more about
41:47
your dinner table. So what do you think about this? Let me tell
41:49
you what he made me think about. What do you think
41:51
about these institutions? I think
41:54
that is a form of support. I think dinner
41:56
table, lunch, coffee, conversation.
41:58
Well, supporting the rhetoric that you think is important. sure
42:00
in the talking points and all of that.
42:02
Maybe the
42:04
values and principles that
42:07
you think are most important. Like you know
42:09
you asked somebody a question so what did Biden
42:12
say last week?
42:13
The biggest threat to
42:15
the United States of America are white supremacists.
42:18
Seriously? Really? So
42:21
let me get this straight. So if I'm voting for
42:23
Biden
42:24
and you're saying the most important serious
42:27
threat is white Americans that
42:30
are apparently white supremacists that don't go
42:32
along with your philosophies. I
42:34
mean if you think you agree with that vote for
42:36
them support them. If you don't don't that's
42:39
just a way of you know supporting
42:41
or not supporting that argument. But Pat do you
42:43
think okay so let's say another person like that
42:45
Pat grows to this this this power
42:48
becomes wants to be the president we
42:50
want you don't think that the powers that be
42:52
we already saw it. I do think that they're gonna I'm saying they're
42:54
all gonna go after this person but but they're not gonna let
42:56
them okay okay so what's the alternative? Well
42:58
that's my point that's why I was going to my point. What
43:00
is the alternative? Look the
43:03
more you win in life you trust fewer
43:05
people because more people
43:07
rip you off more people backstab you it
43:09
becomes harder to trust people that takes longer to
43:12
trust people. You're not as open
43:14
as you once were when you were naive and innocent.
43:17
You see the way people take advantage
43:19
of you're like oh my god I did that for that guy why
43:21
did I got to take advantage of me? What a freaking shady
43:23
situation.
43:24
Now you're like you know what screw it I don't trust anybody
43:27
right when you're moving up okay so
43:29
what are you gonna do sit by yourself and not go
43:31
entertain others? No so I think when
43:33
a person gets involved in power like that
43:36
they're going to be tainted they're gonna see the darker
43:39
side they're gonna see the gamification against
43:41
them. You chose this job
43:43
you should have chose this job then don't do it you
43:45
chose to be a parent
43:47
being a parent does not like hey all
43:49
these pictures you do for you know annual for
43:51
Christmas party cards look how great they look
43:54
you just saw one second of the photo
43:56
shoot of three hours you what you didn't see the two hours and 59
43:58
minutes is fighting
43:59
throwing a fit, poop in, changing
44:02
clothes, all the shit that happens in a photo shoot. Same
44:04
thing's gonna happen as well. But we can't give
44:06
up hope to say, well,
44:08
there's nothing I can do about it and I'm helpless
44:10
and I don't matter. No, that's
44:12
what cowards do, that's what victims do,
44:14
and the DNA of an American is not a coward,
44:17
it's not a victim, it's somebody that has hope and goes
44:19
and fights for them.
44:19
Well, that's why I talk about personal responsibility.
44:21
I mean, this is supposed to be a country of people that
44:23
went out to the frontier and were self-sufficient
44:27
and built something, right? But I think
44:29
Americans today have been conditioned
44:31
to be very different
44:33
than that. And I think it's high time that people
44:35
return back to the values from
44:38
which this country came from, which
44:40
includes the values of the Constitution, but also
44:42
those values of self-sufficiency. Because if
44:44
you're not able to depend on yourself or
44:46
people you trust for something, you're depending on someone
44:49
else. And that person, you know, you
44:51
wanna eat, you gotta jump through these hoops. I mean,
44:53
that's not, given what we're seeing being
44:55
built around us today, I do not think that
44:58
is a good way to continue to live
45:00
personally.
45:01
So, you know, I definitely agree with that about
45:03
values for sure, but at the same
45:05
time, like I said earlier,
45:08
I think too many people to put too much of their faith
45:10
and too much of their energy in just wanting
45:12
one person to do everything for them magically, you
45:14
know, like a political savior type
45:17
of thing. And I think that dynamic is very, especially
45:20
at this point,
45:21
harmful. It's time for people to
45:24
make something of themselves or do something
45:27
in the real world to protect their family. I mean,
45:29
liking stuff on Twitter, retweeting, that's
45:31
not activism, that's not necessarily gonna change
45:33
anything. It's the lowest level though, it's a form
45:36
of it. It's a low, low level. Yeah, but there's people that do
45:38
that and they're like, oh, well, that's why, you know, it's,
45:40
I don't think it's enough. Guess what, I would rather take
45:42
that than below that, which is doing nothing
45:45
because you're hopeless and you're hopeless. That's
45:48
worse than somebody that does a retweet. But
45:49
a lot of those hopeless people too, were like, I
45:51
see this whole system, I think it's all rigged,
45:54
right? Fine. So I'm talking to those people and I'm saying,
45:56
you don't have to participate in the
45:58
system. Yeah. You know, you can still.
45:59
do something about this that doesn't
46:02
involve interacting with that
46:03
system at all. But I think that's selfish. I think that's selfish.
46:05
Well, if you're building a parallel system to
46:07
keep you and your family and your community resilient
46:09
in times of crisis, I don't think that's selfish. I think
46:11
that's what happened during the Great Depression.
46:14
Let me correct myself. I think you
46:16
need to be selfish 70% of the time, but 60 to 70% of
46:20
the time, I do think you need to be selfish and make those decisions
46:23
for yourself. But the additional 20, 30, 40% where you need
46:25
to be selfless, I think you need to also be thinking
46:28
long term because you don't matter as much as you think you
46:30
matter. Meaning you have kids. I have
46:32
kids.
46:33
We matter,
46:34
but you're officially living for
46:37
your kids in a different way than you when you were
46:39
single. Life changes slightly, right? So
46:41
we have to be thinking about what we need
46:43
to do for them. Do we want to teach them to be
46:46
fighters? Do we want to teach them to be willing
46:48
to not give up and have this mindset?
46:50
Like, you know, we have a guy that comes
46:52
to Mario's wedding. One of the relatives
46:54
that comes to Mario's wedding in our backyard
46:57
is from the other side of the family. It's like, well, you know, these
47:01
rich people, you know, there's nothing I can do about it. You know,
47:03
we're poor. There's sometimes Patrick is rich
47:05
and there's nothing we can do about it. I'm like, dude, Patrick grew up
47:07
in a frickin his dad's in 99 cents or cashier.
47:09
What do you mean you cannot do anything about it? Patrick's a military
47:12
guy that got out not having a clue what the hell to do. He decided
47:14
to read a few thousand business books and life change. This
47:17
concept of what I don't really matter that much.
47:19
I think that's also catastrophic. I
47:21
want
47:22
people to read every single
47:25
thing you've written and say, I
47:27
want to do something about this.
47:29
I want to rise up and risk my life
47:31
to contribute and fight these mofos.
47:33
Yeah, absolutely. I want to go. I
47:36
want to brawl. I want to be a Whitney
47:38
web. That's what I want to do. We need
47:40
a hundred Whitney webs right now. We need more
47:43
boys and men around the world, even 14
47:45
year old kids, 15 year old kids that are saying, I
47:47
want to go do some proper investigation. We'll light it
47:50
up and go think and, you know, point out different
47:52
arguments. So for me,
47:54
hero making machine. I think you're a hero. I'm
47:56
edifying you as a hero. I think we need more people
47:59
to want to be the, the. There's different ways of becoming a hero.
48:01
I think you're one of the ways of becoming a hero. Let's
48:03
address one thing, has nothing to do with this. Woody
48:06
Allen, I wanna talk about this, because a lot of things
48:08
have been coming up with Woody Allen and Vinnie
48:11
brought a video out. Vinnie, if you wanna even
48:13
read the story with Woody Allen, I think it's
48:15
on page A, take a lead on that. I'm pretty sure Woody
48:17
knows something about it. Yeah, okay, so The
48:19
Wall Street Journal published an analysis
48:21
of recently released documents that provided details
48:24
of Jeffrey. I've seen contacts with high profile
48:26
individuals from 2008 with a guilty
48:29
plea to soliciting
48:29
and procuring a minor for prostitution, all right?
48:32
They included thousands of pages of emails, schedules
48:35
from 2013 to 2017, which show
48:37
the nature of the frequency of these Epstein's
48:39
contacts with the array of powerful people. They included
48:41
Lawrence Summers, former Treasury Secretary
48:44
and one time Harvard University President, who met
48:46
with Epstein after Harvard decided it
48:49
would no longer accept his donations. And Woody Allen,
48:52
Oscar winning movie director who attended dozens
48:55
of dinners with his wife, Suni, who is
48:57
his adopted daughter, and he's 87, she's 87 and he's,
49:01
I'm sorry, he's 87, she's 52. So like almost
49:03
a 40 year, yeah, it's disgusting.
49:06
And at Epstein's mansion, and invited
49:08
Epstein to film screenings, other figures include billionaire
49:10
venture capitalists and LinkedIn co-founder,
49:13
Reed Hoffman, former Israeli Prime
49:15
Minister, what Barack and
49:17
Leon Black billionaire co-founder of private equity,
49:19
a giant Apollo global management. So
49:22
yesterday I was doing research for
49:24
having you on and just reading up and
49:26
then I saw a clip of Mia
49:29
Farrow, who was, you know, she adopted
49:31
her.
49:31
Yeah, Suni Previn and her daughter, Dylan
49:34
Farrow, was molested
49:36
by me. Was molested and you know, when
49:38
you're doing this type of research, I came up to a
49:41
clip of the 90s of a leaked, like
49:43
a tap audio. I haven't listened to it, but I've
49:45
heard of it. And I showed it to Pat
49:47
yesterday. I got emotional
49:50
in this prep meeting because it's Mia Farrow
49:52
and Woody Allen's on the phone and she's telling-
49:55
Disturbing. It's, I'm gonna get emotional
49:57
right now. She's crying. Mind you, this
49:59
is her adoption.
49:59
And describing what the rape and the
50:03
abuse that he did to a seven year old girl and Pat
50:05
heard this and he was
50:07
in shock. We had to hear it twice. So
50:09
that's right. This is a tapped phone
50:11
call from Woody Allen talking to Mia Farrow.
50:14
And this is they're talking about Dylan who
50:16
was the seven year old at the time. And what she
50:18
went through. I wonder
50:20
because you will not let me get it. You
50:23
have
50:23
to wait on that
50:25
now. What you've done to SUNY, what
50:28
you've done to Dylan, what
50:30
you've done to Dylan. So baby,
50:33
how could you do that to her? I
50:36
don't know anything of that kind. I know
50:39
what Dylan tells me. You've told
50:41
me nothing but lies. Dylan tells the
50:43
truth and consistently. No,
50:46
I don't know that way. I've always
50:49
always worked and worried about you and Dylan.
50:53
And I didn't know the doctor had to report
50:56
this to the authorities. I
50:59
didn't know that. I
51:01
went just to be sure she was all right. And
51:06
she's not alright, Woody. She
51:09
walks around the house holding her vagina.
51:13
She sleeps with me. She's
51:16
scared of you. And
51:18
you love him. I
51:22
feel pretty guilty myself that I wasn't
51:24
there to protect her. I'm sorry. You
51:28
said mommy didn't help me. You
51:33
said daddy shouldn't have done that. He
51:35
shouldn't have hurt me like that. Did
51:41
you hurt her? You would
51:43
weep inside. You
51:46
would just want to be dead. And
51:49
I don't know how you could live with what you
51:51
did. So yeah, yeah, that is so disturbing. Yeah,
51:54
here's something like that. I can't. It's
51:56
just. And
52:00
these people nothing happens, Pat, no jail,
52:02
Woody Allen's walking around, this poor girl's
52:05
ruined for her whole life, that Epstein Island,
52:07
all those girls, all those kids, no
52:09
accountability, these people just walk, nothing happens.
52:11
The two people got in trouble.
52:13
Cindy McCain in January, 2020 went
52:15
in front of, she
52:17
was in front of a stadium full of people. She said,
52:19
we all knew what Jeffrey Epstein was doing.
52:22
Yeah. All these people knew, so all these people,
52:24
like after he was arrested acting like, oh
52:27
yeah, well I didn't know and it was just money this.
52:30
This is why I get frustrated with the Wall Street Journal's
52:32
reporting, because it's just like, they didn't even mention
52:34
Woody Allen, how he
52:36
married Suni Previn.
52:39
They don't mention Dylan Farrow at all. Noam
52:41
Chomsky gets called out about it. He's supposed to be this progressive
52:43
icon and he's like, Woody Allen's a great artist.
52:46
Don't ask me about my evening with a great artist and
52:48
a convicted pedophile. I mean, it's just,
52:51
I mean, it's disgusting. And
52:54
frankly, in my book, I talk about how these
52:57
types of operations, whether
52:59
it's Epstein, whether it's the Franklin scandal.
53:01
This stuff has been going on for a really long time
53:03
and even people that are ex-CIA, like John Kiriakou,
53:06
have said, yeah, when we
53:08
wanna recruit a source,
53:11
if they ask for a kid to sexually
53:13
abuse, we give it to them.
53:16
Unbelievable. Why do we do that? And this
53:18
is why I get, it's so frustrating, because Americans
53:20
have been sold a vision of their government, a
53:22
vision of their intelligence community and military
53:25
that is so divorced from this. And
53:27
I mean, I just think it's really time that, do
53:30
we really represent the values that we project
53:32
around the world that we're supposed to have internalized?
53:35
Or no, I don't think we do,
53:37
because we've allowed our country to be run by literal
53:40
monsters and criminals and
53:43
people act like it's fine. And
53:45
as long as we act like, oh, well, there's
53:49
nothing I can do about it, no, there is
53:51
stuff you can do about it. And the first step is
53:53
to get angry.
53:53
By the way, is that the clip that
53:55
she was talking about? Yes. Can
53:59
you play that? Yep. It hides
54:01
in plain sight. Epstein was hiding in plain sight.
54:03
We all knew about him. We all knew what he was
54:05
doing. We had no
54:10
legal aspect that would go after him. They were
54:12
afraid of him. For whatever reason, they were afraid
54:14
of him. There's no direct McCain-Biden
54:17
time. So her saying that means the whole
54:19
freaking Senate knew
54:21
and nothing was done. I
54:24
mean, it's just crazy to me. It's scary.
54:27
And so when you were me and Pat are Syrians
54:29
were Christians. That's when and when I get to
54:31
that point where I'm like, nothing happens to these people.
54:34
They always get away with it. I mean, Epstein and
54:36
Galena, the two that, you know, they had those two
54:38
had to be in trouble. But as a Christian,
54:41
the only good feeling that I have that if there
54:43
is a hell, these
54:44
people will go there because in Matthew, I
54:46
think it's chapter 18. Matthew says,
54:48
if anybody God said or Jesus
54:50
said, anybody messes with these innocence
54:53
of the kids, it's better for them to tie a milestone
54:56
around their head and throw themselves in the ocean.
54:58
That's the only comforting feeling I has is
55:00
that if you do that, the government's not going to
55:02
go after you. Obviously, they're all protected that God
55:04
will get these people. Yeah, but
55:06
the thing is, why are we allowing a
55:08
government that signs off on this crap
55:11
and, you know, an elite that want
55:13
to go to a guy that does stuff like that
55:16
for money so they can like, you know, evade
55:19
some taxes or, you know, make a couple
55:21
of millions or this and that they're willing to like, co-sign
55:23
this behavior for that. Why do the American
55:26
people not get mad and enraged about it? I mean, it drives
55:28
me crazy. One of the reasons I went and
55:30
moved to South America is because so I'm 33, a millennial.
55:34
When I was, I left when I was in my early 20s
55:36
because I knew about a bunch of crazy crap happening.
55:39
And everyone my age was like, I don't care as long
55:41
as I have Netflix and beer.
55:43
And I mean, there's a lot of Americans that are still like
55:45
that now, you know, and it's just
55:48
so, I don't know. I
55:50
mean, it makes me really upset because, you
55:53
know, I was really close to my grandparents. They
55:55
loved this country so much. And
55:57
if they only knew, if they only
55:59
knew. I knew about this stuff. I mean, I'm just
56:01
glad they died before. God rest their souls.
56:04
It's just so sad. That's
56:06
why I think you're inspiring a lot
56:09
of other people that want to be like you. You may
56:11
not even know this. Like
56:11
I say, the first step is to get angry. So many
56:13
Americans have been, you know, we're stimulated all this stuff
56:16
with like these action movies and death and sex and
56:18
whatever. The first step is to like stop
56:20
being so desensitized
56:22
and get angry and
56:25
outraged about what's happening and
56:27
what's happening to all, I mean, when you're talking about
56:29
Epstein and you're like, what are you out? And these are kids.
56:31
I mean, Dylan Farrow was seven, but court documents
56:33
say he was sexually interested in her between
56:37
the ages of two and three. This is
56:39
a guy people call a great artist and parade
56:41
around and defend. It's sick.
56:43
And I mean,
56:44
two adopted kids, they were, I mean, SUNY Previn
56:47
was his daughter too. There's pictures of them cuddling
56:49
when they were, she was like eight or nine.
56:51
And she was- Any marriage or nobody question, nobody
56:53
gives a damn. Yeah. Yeah, because, you
56:56
know, oh, he's a great artist, blah, blah, blah. Epstein
56:58
was a great financier or whatever. So,
57:01
you know, it doesn't matter. I mean, once you do
57:03
that stuff, you cross a line and it's been a taboo.
57:05
It's been a red line for thousands
57:07
of years for a reason, you know, and
57:09
it shouldn't change now.
57:11
So the question becomes out of these 10 institutions,
57:14
these five, 10, 15 names that we came up
57:16
with, which one of them protects
57:19
guys like Woody and Epstein the most? Well,
57:21
supposedly, you know, law enforcement in this
57:24
country is supposed to prosecute this stuff and they don't,
57:26
and they're on the take, I think. So
57:28
who are they accountable to that
57:30
they don't do that? Because they also
57:32
answer to somebody
57:34
where they see it as a risk to go after a guy like Woody
57:36
Allen or Epstein. Well, again,
57:40
it's hard to know, but think about, you know, Epstein
57:42
and the sweetheart deal. The US attorney
57:44
was Alex Acosta, later becomes secretary
57:46
of labor. He was told he had to
57:48
sign off on the sweetheart deal because Epstein belonged
57:50
to intelligence and he was told to back off,
57:53
it's above his pay grade.
57:54
So you can assume that people like that pop
57:57
up all over the place. It doesn't matter where you were in
57:59
the... government. And I agree with her Pat going
58:02
to the Mark Middleton, think about this, that was in Arkansas
58:04
where he's hanging from a tree, shotgun
58:06
chest, shotgun to his chest, no gun
58:09
and they rule it, the
58:11
police department, that it's suicide. And
58:13
nobody says that, nobody says timeout. How
58:16
is that possible? You know what I mean? Well
58:18
no one even in the media even bothers to look into
58:20
who Mark Middleton was. I know. At
58:22
all.
58:23
I just told you all this China gate stuff, he's in, you just search
58:26
on, you know, the Congress investigation
58:29
Senate reports, Mark Middleton's all over
58:31
it. No one even brings up, not even the
58:33
Daily Mail brings up China gate.
58:36
No one wants to touch that stuff and it's because
58:38
you do that, you're gonna get into this murky world
58:40
where like there's southern air transport, there's
58:43
weird arms deals going on, someone's
58:45
making a lot of money and our intelligence services
58:47
for a very long time have been very involved
58:50
in illicit arms deals and illicit
58:52
drug trades.
58:53
And the banks too, HSBC
58:56
got caught laundering millions of
58:58
dollars for Mexican drug cartels, no one goes to jail.
59:01
None of them. Sam Bankman Freed with FTX
59:03
is about to get 10 of the 13 charges dismissed
59:06
against him and he was the only one arrested for
59:09
FTX supposedly taking Ukraine
59:11
aid money and then funneling it back to DNC
59:13
politicians.
59:15
Nothing happens.
59:17
I mean there's so many examples of this, it's totally
59:19
mind-boggling and like I point out in the first part of my
59:21
book, actually a lot of Wall Street is hugely
59:23
dependent on the returns from laundering drug
59:25
money. If the drug
59:27
trade globally stopped, the banks would
59:29
collapse. It's crazy.
59:32
There is so much corruption here, it's just totally
59:34
mental and until we realize the extent of
59:36
the problem we'll never be able to fix it because
59:39
if you have a, you know, a Disneyland
59:41
version in your head of what the problem
59:43
is, you're not, the solutions you offer are not going
59:46
to be tailored to the actual problem, nothing's gonna
59:48
get fixed,
59:49
you know. And for a lot of people it's hard for
59:51
them to wrap their mind around this stuff. How
59:53
are these people that I idolize like Woody Allen
59:55
put out in front of me as this great guy blah blah blah
59:58
and it clashes with the reality system.
59:59
intensely people develop cognitive dissidence.
1:00:03
Why would he be why would he have been so promoted
1:00:05
and so praised after doing all of that?
1:00:08
Well, our institutions are fundamentally corrupt and
1:00:10
they reward behavior like this. If you're in
1:00:13
the right clubs and hang out with the right people,
1:00:15
and that type of stuff doesn't bother them, we
1:00:17
should be deeply disturbed as Americans that there is
1:00:19
a major segment of very powerful elite
1:00:22
actors that think that type of behavior is fine.
1:00:26
And if they get caught, nothing will happen to them.
1:00:28
Exactly. That's actually scary. Yeah, but if
1:00:30
you're like, I don't know, a kid in Florida and you
1:00:33
get caught with a joint by the wrong cop.
1:00:37
You know, but Woody Allen can molest two
1:00:39
kids and it's fine,
1:00:41
you know. Let me ask you a question. There's just a huge
1:00:43
double standard, you know, I think that's pretty clear.
1:00:45
I'd be curious to know what you say about this.
1:00:47
You know how people run
1:00:49
for office and
1:00:51
they run for, you know, president
1:00:53
or whatever it is and they run on different issues,
1:00:55
right? Build a wall. I'm with
1:00:58
her. Obamacare, affordable
1:01:00
health, you know, health insurance, you know,
1:01:03
cost of insurance, you know, immigration,
1:01:06
taxes, rich people, top 1%,
1:01:08
billionaires, all these things they run on.
1:01:11
You think if somebody ran and they laid
1:01:13
out their top 10 plan and, you know, one
1:01:15
of the things in the top five is to investigate what's
1:01:18
really going on with these
1:01:19
issues. You think that
1:01:22
would be something that would
1:01:24
be resonate with
1:01:26
millions of Americans that they would want to get to the bottom
1:01:28
of this?
1:01:28
Yeah, I think so because even today, despite all
1:01:30
the mainstream media like missing disinformation
1:01:32
about stuff like Epstein, people are like, I'd
1:01:35
really like to see that client list, you know,
1:01:37
and I think that's the
1:01:39
reason, the only reason they ended up going after
1:01:41
Ghislaine Maxwell was because like they were
1:01:44
at first they were like, well, Epstein's dead.
1:01:46
It's gone away. You know, people were like, but
1:01:48
Ghislaine Maxwell.
1:01:50
And I mean, that public
1:01:52
concern didn't go away. A lot of these institutions
1:01:54
feel like they have to maintain a public
1:01:57
veneer that like they'll do something about
1:01:59
it, even though they're not really.
1:01:59
doing much about it. But what concerns
1:02:02
me is what happens when, I mean the mask
1:02:04
is almost totally off as far as like the FBI
1:02:06
and DOJ is concerned
1:02:08
right now. What happens when it comes totally off and
1:02:10
they don't even have to maintain that public
1:02:13
veneer of we're an accountable responsible
1:02:15
institution that cares about democracy and the
1:02:17
rule of law? I'd
1:02:20
be so curious to see if somebody runs on that.
1:02:24
I'd be so curious to see if somebody runs on that. By the
1:02:26
way, whoever runs on wanting to investigate
1:02:28
Epstein has to be somebody that doesn't need Wall
1:02:30
Street money.
1:02:33
Whoever runs on wanting to find out who's on
1:02:35
the Epstein list
1:02:37
can only do it if they don't take any
1:02:39
money from Wall Street. Which
1:02:41
means it eliminates 95% of
1:02:44
candidates.
1:02:47
By the way, you know who's on that list that doesn't need Wall
1:02:49
Street money? Vivek doesn't need Wall Street money. Trump
1:02:51
doesn't need Wall Street money. A couple other
1:02:53
guys don't need Wall Street money. Everybody else
1:02:56
needs Wall Street money.
1:02:57
What about RFK?
1:02:59
He's a what? He's like a 5, 10, 20 million
1:03:01
auto guy? He's
1:03:02
gonna need some money. You
1:03:04
know, he's
1:03:07
already gone after big pharma.
1:03:09
So that's a very big thing to go after.
1:03:11
And now he's continually calling out the
1:03:13
CIA for killing JFK. Yeah, to me.
1:03:16
But every day there's a new article written
1:03:18
or a new clip of him saying the CIA
1:03:21
killed my uncle. I think he's another guy.
1:03:23
I think he's a wild card, but I think he's another guy. I
1:03:25
think he's another
1:03:27
guy that who again, remember what
1:03:30
for me, if you
1:03:32
if you did a book, the cover is half the page
1:03:35
Trump have to page Kennedy. Okay, John,
1:03:37
what do those two families have in common? You
1:03:40
just kind of go through it to see the good, the
1:03:42
bad, the ugly, the corrupt, anything that you want
1:03:44
to go investigate the link to Kushner family, all
1:03:46
this other family. If you see
1:03:49
whatever family didn't need money
1:03:51
is the family that typically cannot be controlled.
1:03:54
Whoever can be moved by money. I mean, you
1:03:56
realize Biden's are doing what they're doing for a million
1:03:59
dollar check. You realize how pathetic
1:04:01
that is? You can buy Bidens for
1:04:03
a million or $10 million.
1:04:05
You know what $10 million is to some of these guys? They're
1:04:07
worth $10 million. I can buy
1:04:09
your family for 10 million bucks and the
1:04:11
big man's gonna get, the big guy's gonna get 10%. I
1:04:16
think
1:04:18
it's concerning to put somebody like that in power. So
1:04:21
I do think there's a few people that will see what's gonna happen with
1:04:23
that. What are your thoughts on that? Well,
1:04:27
you know, when it comes to someone like Joe Biden,
1:04:29
I think there's a clip of him that was going around in the primary.
1:04:32
He was saying something like, I
1:04:34
wanted to be a politician sooner, but I had to wait to be
1:04:36
old enough so I could like sell out properly, something
1:04:39
like that. Who said this? Biden. But
1:04:42
this was like in the long time ago, when
1:04:44
he was much younger,
1:04:45
because apparently they wanna
1:04:48
take him seriously when he was too young or something
1:04:50
and he had to wait. I
1:04:52
don't know. I mean,
1:04:53
the American political system, the
1:04:55
way it has operated for decades
1:04:58
rewards behavior like that.
1:05:00
And the problem is how
1:05:02
do we shift it away so it doesn't reward
1:05:05
that behavior? And if you're looking at, like we mentioned
1:05:07
earlier, the DNC is gonna stop debate, essentially
1:05:10
to shoehorn
1:05:11
Biden in after they've done two
1:05:14
successive presidential primaries where they essentially
1:05:16
committed fraud to keep the popular candidate out.
1:05:18
How democratic is that? And
1:05:21
I mean,
1:05:23
all this other stuff going on, all this funny games
1:05:25
to try and like stop Trump or,
1:05:27
you know.
