  Speaker 1: During World War two, the Office of Naval Intelligence initiated an alliance with the New York Mafia under Lucky Luciano to not only protect US ports from Nazi saboteurs, but also giving them information that helped the US military with the invasion of Sicily, the invasion of Italy, and then the the intelligence agencies reestablished the mob in Italy. Okay? So these guys had been working together for a long time. So one of the problems with the CIA when it was founded was Truman signed the order for it to be put into existence, but he didn't give them a budget. Okay.

  So one of the ways that they raised money is that the newly formed CIA went to their buddies in the mob and said, hey, can you produce heroin in Sicily? And then what we'll do is we'll refine it at a pharmaceutical company in Italy and then we'll ship it to The United States where it'll go to Harlem into the jazz clubs because who cares about those jazz musicians? So here I am saying like, oh my god, this problem has been there from the very beginning. And time and time again, when I went into these deep dives and I found like, okay, I understand what today's controversies are. Can I go back seventy, eighty years and find people bringing up these very same problems?
• 1:42
  Absolutely. And I think that that's something that's that's good for people to understand, because when you look at the history, I mean, you know, it's there. You can find other books, other sources. And all I'm saying is this is the structure by which the CIA had been set up, the way it was being run and just extrapolate into today. And so we're in the book, we're we're going back and forth between what happened in the past and what is currently happening.
• 2:18
  Seth Holehouse: So that's okay. So that's a pretty crazy revelation that, basically, the CIA learned the importance of drug running from China based upon what was happening during the the the civil war in China, right, where the KMT and and and the communist. And so that that's crazy, though, that that was how they funded the agency. And so fast forward to today, how much and I know it's probably a very difficult question to answer, but how much money or how much of their funding or or or resources are tied into the global drug trade? Because, you know, you can imagine that why is it that oftentimes you say, oh, there's a corrupt police officer that was arrested, a corrupt politician, a corrupt judge.
• 3:11
  Right? What I've found and there's actually a book about called political ponderology, which is a book, you know, identifying evil and, like, the understanding that there are people that are evil and psychopathic, but, actually, those people tend towards positions where they can influence and gain power, such as, you know, CEOs of large companies, politicians, judges, police officers, etcetera. And so you oftentimes have people in those positions of power because they can, you know like, a corrupt cop, you know, they they can hide the evidence. They can get away with so much more, let alone if you imagine an entire agency that is okay with the idea of, you killing people from drug overdoses and all the other things we're doing to fund this. I mean, it's it's insane to think about, but you can imagine if you're the CIA, you're above the law.
• 3:58
  So imagine if you could be, you know, a a drug dealer above the law with an international system where you could, you know, you have control of airports and all kinds of things. So back to the question, though, how how large do do you think or do you estimate this drug running operation is today? And then the second part the question is, what does it look like today?
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Well, here's the question I always ask because I'm like a scientist who's looking for the black hole. Okay? The thing that doesn't make sense. So scientists can't observe a black hole. They simply observe a place where light doesn't seem to be going.
• 4:43
  Okay, or that there's no light emanating from it. So I can go back into the past and I can look at this history of drug running. And so you draw a straight line from heroin in Harlem in the late 1940s. You can look at the allegations of the golden triangle in Vietnam. You can look at the 1980s and drugs come crack cocaine coming into the inner cities.
• 5:12
  And you say like, okay, I'm seeing this pattern. What's the what's the black hole in the American media today? The black hole is why is nobody seeming to aggressively go after the cartels that are bringing drugs, human people and fentanyl into our country. I mean, you know, what is it ninety to one hundred thousand people a year are dying from fentanyl overdoses. So I can't tell you that the CIA is involved with the cartels for in some way to influence government south of our border.
• 5:53
  And in return they're allowing fentanyl and human traffickers to come across the border. What I'm observing is there's to my mind, there's no other reasonable explanation other than some deal has been struck Because I don't hear people talking about ninety to one hundred thousand Americans a year dying from drug overdoses. So I'm very clear on what I can prove and what I can't prove. So I give you all the evidence of what's happened in the past. I walk you up to the precipice of what's happening today.
• 6:33
  And I'm asking the question, why is it a very rare politician who says something like, maybe we should send the military after the cartels? I mean, do we really not know where their their, you know, their operations are? We must.
• 6:51
  Seth Holehouse: Folks, we all see it. Everything's getting more expensive. We're paying two, three, four times what things cost just a few years ago. And we know they're lying. 3% inflation, really?
• 7:03
  Think about it. Why are they telling us to keep our hard earned money in the banks and stock market while they're rushing to buy gold and silver? That's right. Governments and central banks around the world are dumping the dollar and scrambling to buy gold and silver right now. These are smart people.
• 7:20
  They see the signs just like you do. They know the crash is coming. The dollar has lost more than half its value in the last five years, and our national debt's increasing a trillion dollars every hundred days. It can't go on like this. Even Bank of America's warning about a dollar collapse.
• 7:39
  And if they're right, it's only a matter of time before our savings, our IRAs, and our four zero one k's could be wiped out. Look. Right now, it's still easy to buy gold and silver, but in the future, it may not be. Experts are saying that prices will keep surging, and UBS says that gold could even go up to $5,000 an ounce. Noble Gold's phones have been ringing off the hook because the folks who get it are wasting time.
