  Speaker 1: Good morning and welcome to Bungie in a Report. Early edition,
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: you guys. This morning, Michael almost had a literal heart attack.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: We walked into the studio, everything was going fine, and
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: suddenly we realized we have no sound. No sound, no sound,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: no sound. And so we were going back and forth.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: I was warning everybody in the chat, like, we have
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: a little tech issue right now. But Michael called Justin.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: They figured it out. So we're a couple minutes late,
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: but we're not like 10 minutes late, which it could
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: have been. I was like, are we going to have
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: a show today? Because there was no sound. But Michael
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: who is an incredible producer, also an incredible husband. He
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: figured it out very quickly. So here we are. Let's
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: get into these headlines today. Trump's DOJ is sued for
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: not releasing Jeffrey Epstein files. Doge and Palantir are partnering
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: up to centralize all IRS taxpayer data. Real IDs are
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: to be mandated for flying. Europe appears to side with
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: China over America on trade. A partially-dead UK man is
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: allegedly interrogated for a so-called hate crime. Spain jails a
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: woman for political speech. AOC says that America deserves to decline.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders gives a speech at Coachella. And archaeologists uncover
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: a gruesome ancient child sacrifice site in Guatemala. All this
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: on Bongina Report, early edition.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: And we know that he was murdered. He was murdered
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: in the special housing unit of federal lockup in Manhattan.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: They put two people, one of whom was not even
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: a full-time prison guard, on duty. None of the cameras
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: trained on the cell worked. They were all out of
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: it that night. Instead, I said to my friend on Friday, actually,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: who do you think killed Epstein? And then he goes,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: the list of people who wanted to kill Epstein was
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: so long. It could be anybody.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: But whoever did it, here's the one thing I'll say,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: whoever did it was able to do it in the
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: most secure lockdown in the United States of America and
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: then get.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: Away with it.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: The dark middleman between wealth, power, and perversion, Jeffrey Epstein.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Epstein captured the world's attention. when he supposedly committed suicide
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: in one of the most secure federal prisons in America,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: just as cameras malfunctioned and the guards fell asleep. But
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: before that, Jeffrey Epstein ran a global blackmail empire built
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: on sex, lies, and power. At the heart of his
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: operation was the trafficking of underage girls who were groomed, abused,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: and then offered up to some of the most powerful
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: men in the world. His private island, Lavish Manhattan mansion
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: and jet, nicknamed the Lolita Express, were playgrounds for the
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: rich and famous, where hidden cameras and secret recording equipment
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: captured the darkest moments of politicians, royalty, scientists, and billionaires.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: The girls were bait, and the goal was to catch
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: men in acts so shameful they would do anything to
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: keep them buried. Behind the glitz, Epstein's network was cold
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: and methodical. He wasn't just throwing wild parties. He was
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: building a blackmail catalog. His close ties to Wall Street giants,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: government officials, and top universities gave him access to young
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: women and important men alike. Deals were brokered over bodies.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Careers were made or destroyed with a single tape. And
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: the people caught in Epstein's trap often found themselves either
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: quietly cooperating or disappearing from public life. Names like Bill Clinton,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Prince Andrew, And a string of corporate executives floated around
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Epstein's orbit, protected by a system too rich and too
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: connected to ever want the full truth exposed. At the
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: center of it all lurked something even darker. Epstein's resources, protection,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: untouchable aura suggested that he was no ordinary criminal. His
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: operation had all the hallmarks of an intelligence-run honey trap,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: designed not just for money, but for control. Whether it
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: was the CIA, the Mossad, some shadowy fusion of the two,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Epstein's true purpose seemed to be gathering secrets and binding
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: the world's elites to hidden masters they could never escape.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Fast forward to last week, and the Trump administration is
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: being sued by an unlikely source. In a six-page filing,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: conservative government watchdog accountability group Judicial Watch, maybe you've probably
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: heard of it, they do really good work, they're accusing
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: the U.S. Department of Justice, under Attorney General Pam Bondi,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: of violating the Freedom of Information Act, or FOIA, by
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: refusing to release files related to Jeffrey Epstein. And I'm
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: going to walk you guys through the timeline here. On
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: February 21st, Judicial Watch requested of the DOJ's Office of
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Information Policy, which is where most FOIA requests would go through,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: this is a quote from the request, all records of
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: communication between Attorney General Bondi and any other individual or
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: entity regarding any lists or other records depicting the identities
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: of clients or associates of Jeffrey Epstein. Trump's DOJ acknowledged
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: the first request on February 27th, assigned it a tracking number,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: and then cited unusual circumstances to justify a 10-day extension.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: But they didn't abide by this 10-day extension. No, Judicial
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Watch then just received no response at all per their lawsuit.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: On February 27th, Judicial Watch submitted two identical requests. One
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: to the DOJ's Department, the DOJ's Criminal Division, and the
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: other to the FBI. And that request said in both
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: of these, all records related to Jeffrey Epstein were born
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: in New York City on January 20th, 1953, and died
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: August 10th, 2019 in New York City. Judicial Watch then
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: got two different replies from these two different sub-departments of
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: the DOJ. In early March, the request to the criminal
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: division was deemed duplicative of an earlier request submitted in
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: 2019 that is still being processed six years later. We
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: can't respond to you on this one because we have
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: a similar request from six years ago. that we're still
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: working on. That's what they said. And in mid-March, the
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: request of the FBI was acknowledged, again pushed back 10
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: days due to unusual circumstances, and again seemingly shelved and
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: ignored by the FBI. On February 28th, Judicial Watch explicitly
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: targeted FBI Director Kash Patel, demanding all records of communication
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: between Patel and any other individuals or entities regarding any
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: lists or other records depicting the identities of clients or
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: associates of Jeffrey Epstein. The FBI acknowledged the request, gave
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: itself an extension, and then went radio silent, just like before.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: I want you to take a listen to Kash Patel
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: in an interview with Glenn Beck before becoming FBI director.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: And I'm bringing this up because there have been very
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: high hopes for what this DOJ, what this administration is
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: going to do in terms of disclosure, and specifically in
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: terms of Jeffrey Epstein, because this was the kind of
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: rhetoric that we were getting from Kash Patel before he
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: became the director. Take a listen to this.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: Who has Jeffrey Epstein's Black Book?
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: FBI.
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: But who?
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: Oh, that's under direct control of the director of the FBI.
• 7:54
  Speaker 6: Just like the manifesto from the Nashville school shooting of
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: the Catholic school. We still haven't seen that, right? It's
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: not the Nashville police or PD saying we don't want
• 8:05
  Speaker 6: this out. The FBI airmailed into that operation and said
• 8:08
  Speaker 6: this is not getting out. They do that because this
• 8:12
  Speaker 6: is another government gangster operation. All these local law enforcement
• 8:16
  Speaker 6: communities get funding from the DOJ and FBI for local programs.
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: And if you don't cooperate, you're not getting your million
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: dollars for this. And that's a lot of money to
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: these local districts. That's how they play the game.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: Directly at the discretion of the FBI director. Now Kash
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Patel is the director. Where are the files? Does anyone
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: sincerely buy this idea that Pam Bondi is trying to
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: find the files because the New York FBI hid them
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: from her? Maybe that was true at one point, but
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: presumably now she has them. I mean, if she didn't,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: this would be a very inefficient agency. And maybe it is.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: But we're getting JFK files, supposedly. We're getting MLK files.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Where are the Jeffrey Epstein files? Remember when Pam Bondi
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: told us that the files were on her desk? Why
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: did she say that if it wasn't true? And when
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: she realized that it was allegedly being withheld by certain noncompliant,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: rogue elements of the FBI, specifically in New York, Why
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: don't we have them now? Judicial Watch is accusing the
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: DOJ of breaking the law by ignoring their FOIA request.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: And this is a conservative group. They're asking the court
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: to order the DOJ to actually search for the records
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: they requested and prove that the DOJ made a real
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: effort to actually find these records. They also want the
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: court to make the DOJ release any documents they're allowed
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: to release under the law or at least explain why
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: DOJ Any documents are being kept secret. Right now, we
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: have no explanation. I would love an explanation, just some transparency.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: What's going on? What's happening behind the scenes? Is there
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: a reason that we're waiting? You're giving yourself a 10-day extension,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: and then you're refusing to respond after 10 days have well... passed.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: What's the reason? Just communicate with us. If there's nothing
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: to hide, if you're not doing anything shady, just tell
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: us what's going on. But they don't. Instead, a conservative
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: group is suing the DOJ. Six years is not a delay.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: It is a cover-up. No honest government needs over half
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: a decade to hand over basic files, especially on a
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: dead man who posed as one of the most connected
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: criminals in modern history. Every excuse, every silent extension, every
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: missing response is a flashing red warning sign that something
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: is being hidden. And I don't want to believe that.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: I want to have faith in this administration. But we
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: need some transparency. We need some communication. People don't know
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: what's happening right now. It makes you assume the worst.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: And you know, Epstein's blackmail operation was not a partisan scheme.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: And this is crucial to understand about what's happening right now.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: It wasn't left versus right. It was a whole system. Politicians, royals,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: corporate giants, global institutions entangled together in one giant, dirty secret.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Here was President Trump before the election, this last election.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Would you declassify the 9-11 files? Yeah. Would you declassify
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: JFK files? Yeah.
• 11:16
  Speaker 7: I did.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: I did a lot of it. Would you declassify the
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: Epstein files?
• 11:20
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would. I guess I would.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: I think that less so because, you know, you don't know.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: You don't want to affect people's.
• 11:28
  Speaker 8: Lives if it's phony stuff in there because it's a
• 11:29
  Speaker 8: lot of phony stuff with.
• 11:30
  Speaker 7: That whole world.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: We didn't elect Donald Trump to let the deep state
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: run the same old protection racket. We elected him to
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: blow it open, to rip out the rot by the roots.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Every minute that these files stay hidden is a minute
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: that the corrupt remain protected and that the people begin
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: asking questions and losing faith. It is unacceptable and it
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: feels like a betrayal. If they think they can wait
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: this out, they're wrong. The truth has already cracked the surface.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: And the harder they pull back, the more obvious it
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: becomes that they're so desperate to hide. Epstein wasn't just
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: a scandal. He was a window into who really runs
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: things and how. And we're not asking for the truth anymore.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: We are demanding it. And look, there's only one reason
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: to keep protecting Epstein's secrets. It's kind of like what
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Trump suggested. Too many powerful people are implicated. His network
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: wasn't just about personal depravity. It was a system of control.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: The tapes, the guest logs, the financial ties, exposing them
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: would bring down politicians, intelligence officials, corporate billionaires, even foreign allies.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: It would shatter institutions the government depends on and reveal
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: how deeply corrupt and rotten our leadership class really is.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Protecting Epstein now isn't about protecting him. It's about protecting
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: the entire global system that he was wired into. So
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: this isn't a sides issue. This matters for everyone, for everything.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: It's a test of whether truth still matters, if we
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: can trust our own. See, if the Epstein files stay hidden,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: The stain of that failure won't just fall on the
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: DOJ or the FBI. It will touch everyone involved, all
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: the way up to the president himself. And no matter
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: how many victories we've won, and there have been so
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: many victories so far, so many things to be excited
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: about and proud of. And we spend this whole show,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: most of the time, very positively talking about what this
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: admin has done. But if this doesn't change, that history
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: will be forever smeared. And people will remember who in
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: this moment protected evil. All right, we're going to take
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: a quick break, but when we come back, I'm going
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: to talk about the legacy of Jeffrey Epstein, and not
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: just the legacy, but the new route for extortion and
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: control that has replaced the Jeffrey Epstein model that is
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: being used and emboldened today. Don't go anywhere. think that
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: because Jeffrey Epstein is gone, so is the blackmail. Jeffrey
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: Epstein's line of work, blackmailing the powerful through sex traps,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: relied on physical setups, luring men into private spaces, recording
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: them in hidden cameras, and then storing the evidence. It
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: was risky. It was labor intensive, messy, clearly. I mean,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: the whole thing blew up. He's now dead. Who knows
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: who killed him? Oh wait, it was a suicide. And
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: who needs all that when everyone has one of these
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: in their pockets. And yes, I can read your comments.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: We're a live show. I see you guys saying it's
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: not live. It's live. And everyone has one of these
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: in their pockets. And this is crucial to understand what
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: has become of the Jeffrey Epstein model. With the rise
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: of companies like Palantir, some, like Jeffrey Epstein researcher and
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: journalist Whitney Webb, suggest that the entire Jeffrey Epstein model
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: is obsolete. Palantir, co-founded by Peter Thiel and Alex Karp
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: and heavily backed by the U.S. intelligence community, specializes in
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: gathering and analyzing massive amounts of personal data, emails, phone calls,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: financial transactions, travel records, even private habits, without needing to
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: bait anyone into a physical trap. With tools like Palantir,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: you can digitally own a person, expose their secrets, predict
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: their weaknesses. map their networks, and control them at scale.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: In other words, why bother running a sloppy operation like
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Epstein's when software can quietly deliver even deeper leverage faster
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: and without the risk of the scandal blowing up? You're
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: probably asking, Evita, how is that legal? Some private company
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: is just taking in all of our data and synthesizing
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: it and potentially using it as blackmail, as Whitney Webb
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: has suggested. Palantir surveillance isn't exactly... legal in the way
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: most people think. It operates in the gray zones the
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: government has carved out for itself, specifically after 9-11. Palitator
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: doesn't go out and spy on people randomly. Instead, it
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: analyzes massive amounts of data that's already been collected by governments, corporations,
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: and institutions without people realizing it. Under laws like the
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Patriot Act and later expansions, intelligence agencies and law enforcement
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: can collect huge pools of metadata. who you call, where
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: you go, what you buy, without needing traditional warrants. Palantir's
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: job is to take that ocean of data and make searchable, connected,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: and predictive analyses. When Palantir works with government clients like
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: the FBI, CIA, DHS, it's covered under those agencies' surveillance
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: authorities that were given to them post-9-11. In fact, a
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: huge focus of Palantir is predicting things, talking about pre-crime,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: radicalization or thought crimes among the public. Here's DHS Director
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: Kristi Noem alluding to just that during her vetting process
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: with Congress. Take a listen.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: What I would say is the cybersecurity and intelligence elements
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: that we have within the Department of Homeland Security have
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: been incredibly siloed. They have not communicated with other intelligence
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: agencies like they should and partnered. INA has some interaction,
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: but not enough. And we also need to have CISA
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: have interaction with the FBI, CIA to make sure they're
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: working together to stop these types of threats and identify
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: when they're growing among our citizens and how they become radicals.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: Palantir's raw collection is technically legal because the Patriot Act
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: and secret court rulings and Palantir's analysis is framed as
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: data processing, not direct spying. It's surveillance hidden behind paperwork.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: but it's surveillance all the same. It's outsourcing what the
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: government can't legally do under the Constitution. By the way,
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Palantir is also kind of in the business of war crimes.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: Palantir software has been used by the U.S. military to
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: help target drone strikes that have reportedly killed civilians, including
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: women and children. But of course, Palantir is getting more
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: government contracts. They're not stopping any time. It's not like
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: the bad PR from the war crimes or the mass
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: surveillance is putting anybody in the government off. No, actually,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: they're getting more powerful, more emboldened on our tax dollars. See,
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: Peter Thiel and Elon Musk have a close relationship. They
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: both co-founded PayPal together. They're part of what's known as
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: the PayPal mafia. And surprise, surprise, Over the weekend, we
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: learned that Elon Musk's Doge is working with Palantir, the
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: surveillance company he has long ties to, to build a
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: mega API that would centralize all IRS taxpayer data, including
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: social security numbers, addresses, and tax returns. The Treasury Department
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: says nothing is finalized yet. We're not positive that they
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: have this contract, but if completed, the project would move
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: sensitive IRS data into the cloud and make it interlopable
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: with other federal agency databases. And I'll just say, Not
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: only getting into the merits of this project just on
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: its face, Palantir doesn't need one more contract. The company
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: has a long and disturbing record of enabling and, frankly,
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: just engaging in mass surveillance, assisting military operations that led
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: to civilian deaths, building systems used by authoritarian regimes to
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: crush dissent. That's what pre-crime is, figuring out who's guilty
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: of thought crimes. It's dystopian. Why are we going to
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: hand over our financial data, or at least even more
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: of our financial data, to this insane company? The entire
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: business model is built on turning personal information into a
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: weapon used by powerful people, specifically governments. No matter how
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: efficient they claim to be, handing Palantir this contract is
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: just handing over one last shred of privacy that the
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: American people have. There seems to be certain people on
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: the political right who don't like to have this discussion.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: who trust our data in the hands of a government
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: on their side. I think that's foolish. Kristi Noem recently
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: announced that a real ID will be required for domestic
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: air travel and access to certain federal facilities in the
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: United States. Take a listen.
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: Hi, I'm Kristi Noem, the United States Secretary of Homeland Security.
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: If you plan on traveling, we need your help to
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: prevent delays and to prove your identity. Get a real ID.
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: Starting May 7th, you will need a Real ID to
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: travel by air or to visit federal buildings in the
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: United States. These IDs keep our country safe because they
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: help prevent fraud and they enhance security. Please do your
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: part to protect our country. Go today and don't delay.
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: To learn more, go to dhs.gov slash real dash ID.
• 21:01
  Speaker 9: Thank you.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Now, people have been reacting to this online, and a
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: lot of people on the right are pretty upset about it.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Just for some context, this enforcement has been scheduled to
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: take place on May 7th since December 5th, 2022. So
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: the Trump admin didn't come up with this. Kristi Noem
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: didn't come up with this. They are just simply agreeing
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: to follow through with something already in place. Now, what's
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: a real ID? A real ID is a federally approved
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: driver's license or ID card that meets stricter security standards
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: for proving your identity, including legal status, social security number, address.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: In 2005, President George W. Bush signed the Real ID
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Act into law, and it was authored by Representative James Sensenbrenner,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: also the author of the Patriot Act. Here is Ron
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: Paul back in 2007 reacting to the Real ID.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Just sum it up for me in three sentences. If
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: you get in an argument with someone about the national
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: ID card, the response you're likely to get is, well, gee,
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: the credit card companies have a lot of information on
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: you and you don't feel like your liberty is being
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: abridged because of that. Why is a national ID card
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: a threat to liberty?
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: Well, one is private and one is government.
• 22:12
  Speaker 10: I don't want the government snooping on me. I would
• 22:14
  Speaker 10: give my fingerprint to Continental Airlines, the airlines I fly.
• 22:18
  Speaker 10: in order to get through the line and to be
• 22:20
  Speaker 10: assured that I'm.
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: A safe passenger. But I don't want to do it
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: with the government.
• 22:23
  Speaker 10: The government is there to protect privacy, not to invade
• 22:28
  Speaker 10: our privacy. Now our government, it does more to protect
• 22:31
  Speaker 10: their secrecy and they violate our privacy. So there's a
• 22:34
  Speaker 10: big difference between a credit card company. If they violate
• 22:37
  Speaker 10: our privacy, then you can use the government to enforce
• 22:40
  Speaker 10: laws because they promised me to keep my privacy confidential.
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: So there's a big difference.
• 22:46
  Speaker 10: It's sort of like the government shouldn't have your medical records,
• 22:48
  Speaker 10: but I as a physician can have access to your
• 22:51
  Speaker 10: medical records, but I better not violate that confidence.
• 22:54
  Speaker 8: Amen.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: Somebody was bringing up Real ID in the chat for voting.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: There's a difference between Real ID being required for voting
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: and being required for air travel. Implementing a national, implementing
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: Real ID requires for air travel is essentially implementing a
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: national ID system that violates Americans' privacy and liberty. It
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: creates a centralized government database that tracks citizens' movements, forces
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: people to show papers to live normal lives, and treats
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: every American like a criminal suspect before you board an airplane.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: It's one more encroachment of freedoms that the TSA is taking,
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: an agency that, by the way, is pretty trash at
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: its job. But the TSA and the Patriot Act and
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: the REAL ID is not about security. Never has been.
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: It's about control. Control in the hands of the federal government.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: It's what it always is. It shreds constitutional limits on
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: government power and moves the United States closer to full-blown
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: surveillance state. It's exactly what Palantir has been doing for
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: the last 20 years. We should be allowed to move
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: freely in this country without being tracked and monitored. Thomas
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: Massey writes that real ID isn't needed and won't stop
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: terrorists from hijacking planes. Most of the 9-11 hijackers held Saudi, UAE, Egyptian,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: or Lebanese passports. Real ID is a national standard and
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: database of IDs that is primarily a tool for control
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: of Americans. Trump shouldn't enforce it. How many times are
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: we going to be faced with these questions of Liberty
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: versus safety. And every time we choose safety and every
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: time we are never more safe than we were before.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: The TSA doesn't do its job very well. That's just obvious.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: These guys were able, the men who boarded these flights,
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: they would have been able to get on a plane.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, they had the passports. They had the verification.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: They didn't need the real life. This is constantly what
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: we're confronted with. as an American people. And this is
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: what the founding fathers warned against. And there are so
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: many people, even on our own side, who seem to
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: go along with these justifications. And I have my criticisms
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: of libertarians, but they're very, very firm on this issue.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: You never sacrifice liberty for temporary safety. It never pans
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: out for you. I think we have to stay true
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: to that. I think we have to keep that in
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: mind as we're confronted with with these issues, even on
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: our own side, even if it seems reasonable. You want
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: to be tracked and treated like a terrorist just to
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: travel in this country?
• 25:27
  Speaker 11: It's absurd.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: You should be able to prove that you're a citizen
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: to vote. But a real ID to fly is absurd. Now,
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: let's talk about trade because the Chinese Commerce Ministry told
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: Washington this week that We urge the U.S. to correct
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: its mistakes, completely cancel wrong practice of reciprocal tariffs, and
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: return to right path of mutual respect. So they are saying,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: just back out of this. We don't want to do
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: this little trade conflict with you. And of course, this
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: makes perfect sense. Last week, we discussed how China is
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: disadvantaged because it is in a trade surplus. When tariffs
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: go up, the country that exports more has a lot
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: more to lose. But there's something else to keep in
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: mind here. Wall Street Journal former senior editor Bob Davis
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: wrote a piece recently explaining that China's government is not
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: as swift and decisive as Americans tend to assume. While
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Xi Jinping is the preeminent leader, the system relies on
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: a labyrinth of bureaucracy that carefully considers and reconsiders options
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: before reaching decisions. And ironically, the U.S., under President Trump,
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: can apply tariffs, raise them, lower them, or pause them
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: by a whim. So the U.S. operates more like a
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: one-man state when it comes to trade policy than it
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: does China. China's really disadvantaged in this back and forth. Now,
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: a key piece of the pie here is how the
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: rest of the world responds. Trump is essentially, like I
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: said last week, forcing the world to choose between the
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: United States or China. And Europe appears to be choosing China. Well,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about Europe choosing China. Because the
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: first person the European Commission president called after Trump's Liberation
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Day speech, apparently, we're learning, was China, not the United States.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Spain's prime minister recently visited Beijing, and EU leaders are
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: planning to meet Xi Jinping in July. Now, this is
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: pretty unwise, given that economically, Europe's future is already tied
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: to America. As Peter Franklin writes in Unheard, U.S. companies
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: have invested about $ 4 trillion in Europe, and European firms
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: have $ 3. 4 trillion invested in the U.S., and these figures
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: far outweigh Europe's limited ties with China. So financially, it
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: makes zero sense for the EU to jump into the
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: arms of the CCP. But then again, this isn't about logic.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: This is about emotion, because the EU has hardly acted
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: like an ally of the U.S. for some time now.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: Here's Steve Bannon.
• 28:02
  Speaker 11: You talk about declaring economic war on the Chinese Communist Party,
• 28:06
  Speaker 11: but these tariffs also impacted or perhaps even declared economic
• 28:11
  Speaker 11: war on your own allies, the European Union, Britain, Canada.
• 28:13
  Speaker 5: Give me the allies again. European Union, Canada, Britain, Australia.
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: I am so insulted by you using the term allies.
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: Allies supposed to be somebody in something together. The European
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: elites are total and complete deadbeats. I was the guy
• 28:29
  Speaker 5: on point in the first administration that had to be
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: a supplicant to ask you guys, would you please consider
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: getting up to the two and two and a half
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: percent that you committed after you forced your way into
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: Ukraine in 2014? You realized you were going to have
• 28:41
  Speaker 5: a fight on your hands. You actually realized we have
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: to get to two percent or two and a half percent,
• 28:45
  Speaker 5: which none of you did. Only the Brits came close
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: and later the Poles. And if you look at really,
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: in particular, the Germans, the Italians, some of these people
• 28:52
  Speaker 5: are horrible. The French, if you actually look where the
• 28:55
  Speaker 5: defense budget goes, it's not going to combined arms operation.
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: It's not going to maneuvers. It's not going to pensions
• 29:03
  Speaker 5: or women's health care or climate change. Climate change is
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: the big one. It's all phony. It's all fake. You
• 29:11
  Speaker 5: haven't been an ally forever. You can't pull your weight.
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: If you took the United States out of Western Europe
• 29:16
  Speaker 5: today militarily, the whole thing would collapse. We're the infrastructure
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: and the backbone of everything. It's completely unacceptable. This is
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: why they praise Joe Biden. If you read the new
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: books coming out about Joe Biden, own chiefs of staff,
• 29:28
  Speaker 5: they had to tell him, hey, you're not the president
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: of NATO because he kept sitting there babbling. Well, you know,
• 29:32
  Speaker 5: the NATO guys really love me.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: They love me.
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: Of course, you're giving them everything. The Western European people
• 29:38
  Speaker 5: must understand that there are have not been allies to
• 29:42
  Speaker 5: the United States. You've looked at the burden of everything,
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: of manpower, right, of defense. Right now, you call yourself
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: an ally?
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: Steve Bannon, ever spot on. I mean, he always is.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: And it's not just that the EU doesn't pull its
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: own weight. The US, led by Trump, and the EU,
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: led by liberal tyrants, have stark ideological differences. They're so
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: hateful toward nationalism and populism that they would risk financial
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: ruin and run into the arms of the CCP rather
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: than cut a deal with Trump. And it makes sense
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: because look at who they have become. Yesterday, in the UK,
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: an elderly, partially deaf man was allegedly given a warning
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: by the police for suggesting someone, presumably a migrant, speak English.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: more clearly. So he can't hear, can you speak English
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: more clearly? And he was accused of a hate crime.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Take a listen to this.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: Apparently during some conversations between yourself, apparently you have alleged,
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: we weren't here, so I don't.
• 30:38
  Speaker 6: Know you've said it, but you've alleged to say, speak English.
• 30:42
  Speaker 11: Speak clearly.
• 30:43
  Speaker 6: Speak clearly.
• 30:44
  Speaker 9: The gentleman's passed on the desk.
• 30:47
  Speaker 11: Yeah, he can't speak clearly.
• 30:49
  Speaker 9: So I couldn't even hear him.
• 30:51
  Speaker 6: And that's fine, and that's why we've just come to speak,
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: because potentially someone could perceive that as a hate crime.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: Didn't we just know this was going on? No, I know.
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: People, you know, if someone says to me, officer, I
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: believe this, then we need to look at it, because
• 31:08
  Speaker 6: someone's potentially reporting to the FBI.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: So I guess being partially deaf means you're at risk
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: of being convicted of a hate crime in the UK.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: And in the UK, if you say something that is
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: interpreted as hostile or abusive towards someone's nationality, ethnicity, or race,
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: then you could be charged with violating the UK's Public
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: Order Act or the Crime and Disorder Act. And you
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: can face massive unlimited fines, potentially even go to jail
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: for hate crimes in the UK. Now, of course, here
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: we have this thing called the First Amendment in the
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: United States. So you cannot be punished For just offending somebody?
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Did you see what I mean about diverging values? Isabel
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: Medina Peralta is the head of a Spanish group called
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: the NS Bastion Frontal. And they're nationalist, traditionalist, anti-globalist, anti-mass immigration.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: And last week, Isabel was sentenced to one year in
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: prison for, again, a hate crime. because during a rally
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: in front of the Moroccan embassy in Madrid in 2021,
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: Isabel said things like, it's not immigration, it's an invasion,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: death to the invader, Spain is Christian, not Muslim. These
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: are the horrifying things that she said that then landed
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: her in jail. The rally ended in riots and five arrests,
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: which is part of why the provincial court of Madrid
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: gave Isabel jail time, and they found her guilty of
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: promoting hatred and discrimination. In addition to her prison sentence,
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: she was also fined 1,080 euros. The judge reportedly said
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: that while freedom of expression is protected, it does not
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: extend to speech that incites violence or targets vulnerable communities.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: Of course, vulnerable communities are certain people that are more
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: protected than others. We call that a protected class, something
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: that China has as well. Now, Some describe Isabel and
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: Bastian Frontal as neo-Nazi. And I'm going to be honest
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: with you, I haven't done deep research into this group.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: It's very possible that they are neo-Nazi. Although I will
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: say that people call President Trump a Nazi and Elon
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: Musk a Nazi. And I've probably been called a Nazi
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: at one point. It's a very freeing term. But even
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: if she was or is a neo-Nazi... You don't put
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: people behind bars for saying things you don't like. Free
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: societies are supposed to answer bad ideas with better ideas,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: not prison sentences. But the EU isn't a free society,
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: is it? This is a clash of civilizations right now.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: On one side, you have the United States, battered, but
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: still so many of us clinging to the idea that
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: rights like free speech and national sovereignty matter. And then
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: you have the CCP. built on slave labor, social credit,
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: environmental ruin, animal abuse, intellectual property theft. The European Union
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: is shaking off the Enlightenment ideals that it once had
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: in common with the United States and seems to be
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: embracing CCP-style social control. See, the choices Trump is forcing
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: aren't just economic. It's moral choices. And Europe, sadly, is
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: showing the world exactly who it has become. Now, some
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: people look at what President Trump is attempting to do,
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: and they would prefer that he fail. Not because they
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: hate tariffs or love China, but because they think America
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: deserves pain. There are a lot of abusive people in
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: this country, leaders who I think act more like abusive boyfriends,
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: telling the American people, we're so irredeemably racist, and our
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: history is so shameful that we don't deserve to prosper
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: as a people. America deserves to decline. And that's exactly
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: what AOC said. EOC recently claimed that America deserves to decline,
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: and she described America as a nation riddled with inequity
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: and injustice. Take a listen.
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: Also, you know, the other way I think you can
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: think about it is that we are... you know, perhaps
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: we are in the downfall of the broken way. This
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: was not built to last. Inequity, injustice is not built
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: to last.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: It lasts a long time.
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: It could last hundreds of years, but ultimately it crumbles
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: into this, you know, a small cohort of incompetent people
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: that create damage.
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: And from that.
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: something new can spring. And so maybe something is declining
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: right now, but maybe it deserves to decline.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Maybe it deserves to decline. She sneers at our history,
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: tears down our founding ideals, but America isn't bigotry or inequity.
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: It's human dignity and freedoms and self-government rooted in centuries
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: of Christian Western civilization. But AOC has to demonize who
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: we are. She has to advocate for the nation's demise
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: because That's what's necessary for her plan. Her plan being collectivism,
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: which has, of course, only produced misery, slavery, moral collapse,
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: violence rooted in the sin of envy. And that's the
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: future of the Democratic Party right now. And if you
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: don't believe me, here was Bernie Sanders over the weekend
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: making a surprise appearance at Coachella, the most famous and
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: influential music festival in the world. Take a listen to Bernie.
• 36:41
  Speaker 8: We need you to stand up to fight for justice.
• 36:49
  Speaker 8: To fight for economic justice, social justice, and racial justice.
• 37:00
  Speaker 7: We have an economy today that is working very well
• 37:06
  Speaker 7: for the billionaire class, but not for working families. We
• 37:14
  Speaker 7: need you to help us to create an economy that
• 37:18
  Speaker 7: works well for everybody, not just the 1%.
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: Shouldn't Bernie Sanders be happy that President Trump is trying
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: to bring back American industry by taking on Wall Street
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: and globalism? Isn't that exactly what's good for the working class?
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: It was the leftists who initially protested China's entry into
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: the World Trade Organization in 1989. Bernie doesn't support Trump
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: bringing back jobs and cutting trade deals because he and
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: AOC prefer it bad. Only when it's really bad can
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: they justify a collectivist revolution. As Alexander Solzhenitsyn showed in
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: the Gulag Archipelago, his famous book, revolutionaries depend on hardship, resentment,
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: chaos to fuel their cause. A prosperous and stable society
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: offers no excuse for collectivist upheaval. That's why figures like
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders and AOC can't celebrate efforts to revive American
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: industry or lift up working class families. They require suffering.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: Without economic despair, they lose the anger and desperation necessary
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: to push their radical agenda. Prosperity weakens the revolution. Hardship
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: sustains it. Why don't you take a look at this photo?
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: of the Romanovs. Tsar Nicholas II, his wife Alexandra, and
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: their five children Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, and Alexei. When
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: the communist Bolsheviks seized power in 1917, they immediately viewed
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: the Romanov family as symbols of the old world that
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: had to be completely eradicated. After months of imprisonment, humiliation,
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: and deprivation, the Romanovs were moved, confined to a house
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: ominously renamed the House of Special Purpose. In the early
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: hours of July 17, 1918, under orders from Bolshevik authorities,
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: they were led into a basement and brutally executed by
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: a firing squad. The killing was chaotic and savage. When
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: gunfire failed to kill everyone instantly, the executioners used bayonets
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: and later burned and hid the bodies to erase any
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: trace of the family. The murder was not just political,
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: it was ideological. meant to wipe out the old world
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: and make clear that under the revolution, even the innocent
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: would not be spared. This is collectivism. It is violent
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: and horrific in every iteration, and their crimes are excused
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: in the name of exactly what Bernie said. social justice,
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: racial justice, economic justice. The other element of Marxism is,
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: of course, hold on, you guys. Are you guys hearing
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: a little noise in the background? Mikey, I don't know.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: You're in my ear a little bit. Got it.
• 40:03
  Speaker 11: All right, we're good.
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: The other element of Marxism is, of course, the death
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: of God. Marxist ideology is deliberately rejects God because it
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: needs humans to believe that there is no higher power,
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: no eternal judgment, only material struggle and political power. So
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: for Marxism to triumph, the soul must be broken and
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: reverence for the divine must be extinguished. Without God, of course,
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: everything becomes permissible. It's chaos, lies, violence, mass murder, all
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: are justified in the name of building a utopia, including
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: murdering a beautiful family and children in said family. That's
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: what happened to to Tsar Alexander and his family. It's
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: also why AOC needs to demonize Western Christian heritage, that
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: we're all evil and regressive. Anti-justice, as she'd say, or
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: as Bernie would say. They don't like talking about the alternative, though.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: What do non-Christian societies look like? I know that a
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: lot of people don't like to talk about the truth.
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: of what anti-non-Christian societies look like. I know what the
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: Marxist ones look like, but how about historically? And that's
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: part of the jig, is to demonize the history of
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: the West, of Christianity, and to not really acknowledge the
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: full truth of the ancient history of the pre-Christian or
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: non-Christian world, to make us feel ashamed while never discussing
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: the alternative. Last week, an ancient altar was found in
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: the Guatemala jungle. apparently used for sacrifices, especially of children,
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: according to archaeologists. The altar, built around the late 300s AD,
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: is decorated with four painted panels of red, black, and yellow,
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: depicting a person wearing a feathered headdress and flanked by shields.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: In the face has almond-shaped eyes, a nose bar, and
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: a double ear spool. And it closely resembles other depictions
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: of a deity dubbed the Storm God in central Mexico.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: And on three sides of the altar, the archaeologists found
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: the remains of three children, not older than four years old.
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: Because here's the truth. Ritual human sacrifice was widespread across
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: all pagan cultures, from the Aztecs to the Canaanites to
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: the Mayans and Vikings. Slavery, caste systems, infanticide, routine bloodshed
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: were normalized long before Christianity changed those evils with the
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: radical idea that every human being is made in the
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: image of God. Communists, like today's progressives, understand that to
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: tear down the Christian moral order, they must first make
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: people forget what the world looked like without it. And
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: that's why they smear the Christian... Say that again, Mikey? Oh,
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: mostly peaceful altar. Yes. This is what they want us
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: to believe, that they were so peaceful, that they were
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: so one with nature, and that the Christians came in
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: and destroyed this beautiful culture.
• 43:00
  Speaker 11: Really?
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: Is this so beautiful? Would you want to live in
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: this empire? Would you want your kid to be sacrificed
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: to the storm god at two years old as an infant?
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: Christian West is smeared as uniquely oppressive while whitewashing the
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: far darker legacy of the godless regimes and pre-Christian barbarism.
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: They have to erase memory itself because if people remember
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: the truth, they would cling to Christian civilization all the
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: more fiercely and Marxism would never come to fruition. The
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: stakes here are high. If we betray our ideals, if
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: we embrace mass surveillance and the dechristianization of the West
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: and tolerate corruption and excuse secrecy in the name of
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: short-term gains, like safety, or I don't know, we do
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: not just stay in ourselves. We forfeit the reason that
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: we claim to fight. We become what we warned against,
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: which is a system of control, not liberty. And if
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: we lose that, we risk losing far more than a
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: political battle. We risk losing an entire generation to collectivism
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: I think young Americans are watching right now. They're growing
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: up in a world that is increasingly saying, communicating that
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: the ideals of freedom and transparency and dignity are all
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: a lie. I've grown up in the post 9-11 America.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know what it was like before 9-11. Everywhere
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: I turn, it's mass surveillance. I constantly feel watched. Young
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: people even joke about having a personal FBI agent because
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: we just know inherently that we have no privacy. We
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: have no right to just exist and live our lives
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: free of constant government surveillance. And when we see this
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: creeping surveillance state and we see no principle stand against
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: it on either side of the political aisle, the next
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: generation is going to be seduced by the same ideologies
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: that brought horror in the last century. Because at least
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: they'll get free healthcare, right? At least they'll get economic justice,
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: as Bernie Sanders says. And like I said, there's no
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: fight left if we abandon who we are. And it
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: takes courage to refuse mass control, to tell the truth
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: without compromise, and to trust that society is built on
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: freedom and virtue, that they can still endure with those beliefs.
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: The people we've elected aren't just defending a nation, they're
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: defending a civilization. Those are the stakes. And again, you
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: want to encourage the next generation to abandon the system,
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: totally destroy all that is and was, and go with
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Bernie and AOC? Then by all means, continue with the
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: bureaucratic silence and endless delays on Epstein. Teach them that
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: the system is a joke and that justice is a myth.
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: And then they'll want to go for the economic justice
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: and the racial justice and the social justice that Bernie
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: Sanders is promoting. Because at least he's talking about justice.
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: And then, of course, allow the model that Epstein perfected
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: to live on. With Palantir on the rise of mass
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: digital surveillance, the tools of coercion have only become more invisible,
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: yet also more powerful. And people know it. People can
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: see it. If we do not rip open the truth now,
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: if we do not break the cycle of secrecy, we
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: are not only letting the past fester, we are allowing
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: Epstein's legacy to metastasize into the future where control is total,
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: consent is meaningless, and freedom dies without a sound. And
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: that is all that I have for you all today.

• 47:26
  Speaker 9: I'm on the ballot. Why is he saying that? You

  Speaker 9: think he doesn't know what he's doing? That is the
