Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: All right, welcome to the third hour of The Morning
- 0:06Speaker 1: Show with Preston Scott. It is November nineteenth. Great to
- 0:09Speaker 1: be with you friends, Show fifty four ninety eight. That
- 0:13Speaker 1: is Jose in Studio one A. I am here in
- 0:17Speaker 1: Studio one B, and I am thrilled to have back
- 0:20Speaker 1: on the program. He is the director of research for
- 0:24Speaker 1: the Government Accountability Institute, works with our good friend Peter Schweitzer,
- 0:28Speaker 1: and what they're doing is incredible work, important work. Seamus Berner,
- 0:34Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show. Seamus, how are you.
- 0:37Speaker 2: Good morning, Preston, Great to be with you.
- 0:39Speaker 1: You do this, you find a way to take something
- 0:43Speaker 1: massive and condense it into sound bites, because I know
- 0:46Speaker 1: you do television. And the last time I saw you,
- 0:50Speaker 1: you were on Fox. You were addressing the President of
- 0:52Speaker 1: the United States and you were talking about something that
- 0:56Speaker 1: you guys had I guess kind of created the title for,
- 0:58Speaker 1: and that's riot. Tell Us about this, tell us about
- 1:02Speaker 1: the paid protest network that's operating in this country.
- 1:07Speaker 2: Yeah. So, as you know, Peter Schweitzer, our team, we
- 1:10Speaker 2: follow the money. We followed it to the top of
- 1:13Speaker 2: the protest industrial complex. We call it Ryan Ink. President
- 1:18Speaker 2: Trump wanted to know who's behind these anti ice riots
- 1:22Speaker 2: all across the country, mostly in the blue cities like Chicago, Portland, Seattle,
- 1:27Speaker 2: Los Angeles, and we've been tracking it for a while.
- 1:30Speaker 2: Of course, yes, it is George Soros and his Open
- 1:34Speaker 2: Society network. It's also some lesser known big left wing
- 1:38Speaker 2: funding networks like the Tides network, the Arabella funding network, which,
- 1:44Speaker 2: by the way, News just broke yesterday. Arabella will be
- 1:47Speaker 2: shutting down or at least rebranding. It's a tentative win.
- 1:52Speaker 2: We know they're going to pop up like a hydra
- 1:55Speaker 2: with more heads and more places, but nonetheless it's this
- 1:58Speaker 2: big ecosystem. And by the way, the thing that shocked
- 2:01Speaker 2: President Trump the most was that your tax payer money
- 2:04Speaker 2: finds its way into these riots. It goes from your
- 2:09Speaker 2: pockets to the federal government, which then distributes more than
- 2:14Speaker 2: one hundred million dollars we calculated to networks like Tides, Rockefeller,
- 2:21Speaker 2: even the Soros networks USAID. But there's also other agencies
- 2:26Speaker 2: that fund these big left wing NGOs, ostensibly for some
- 2:30Speaker 2: charitable purpose, but we know money is fungible, so then
- 2:34Speaker 2: those big networks funnel it back out to the boots
- 2:37Speaker 2: on the ground and It's not just Antifa. It is
- 2:40Speaker 2: a whole host of dozens hundreds of these little NGOs
- 2:45Speaker 2: that organize, provide the signs, provide the water bottles, everything.
- 2:49Speaker 2: It's an industrial operation.
- 2:52Speaker 1: When you say tides in Arabella, give our listeners a snapshot.
- 2:56Speaker 1: What are these organizations? Where do they come from? What
- 3:00Speaker 1: were they founded to do?
- 3:03Speaker 2: Yes, great question. So they've been around even longer some
- 3:06Speaker 2: of them. Arabella's rather new two thousand and five. It's
- 3:10Speaker 2: network and it's got about seven sub funds. Arabella Advisors
- 3:14Speaker 2: is just the advising entity, but it's got the New
- 3:18Speaker 2: Venture Fund, the sixteen thirty Fund, the Windward Fund, more
- 3:23Speaker 2: names than people care to hear about. And so those
- 3:25Speaker 2: are the entities that actually do the funding. So Soros
- 3:28Speaker 2: is actually one of the biggest funders of Arabella. He
- 3:31Speaker 2: was there from the beginning one hundred million plus. There's
- 3:35Speaker 2: actually a foreign billionaire named Hans jorg VIIs from Switzerland.
- 3:40Speaker 2: He's given a couple hundred million over the years to
- 3:43Speaker 2: the Arabella network. Bill Gates puts in three hundred plus
- 3:47Speaker 2: million in the last five years or so. Also, big
- 3:51Speaker 2: news in June was that Bill Gates would be cutting
- 3:53Speaker 2: his funding that's I believe directly tied to Arabella's demise
- 3:59Speaker 2: because Bill It's cut the funding. He was one of
- 4:01Speaker 2: the biggest funders of that. TIDES has actually been around
- 4:05Speaker 2: for much much longer decades, and the Ford Foundation is
- 4:08Speaker 2: also in this whole ecosystem. The Ford Foundation goes back.
- 4:13Speaker 2: I wrote a book Control of Arcs that shows that
- 4:15Speaker 2: the Rockefeller Foundation, which keeps popping up time and time again,
- 4:20Speaker 2: that was really the prototype. I mean, it goes back
- 4:23Speaker 2: to nineteen oh four. These big industrialist guys, they did
- 4:27Speaker 2: not want their money going to these things. But over
- 4:29Speaker 2: the years, these big foundations like Henry Ford and his
- 4:33Speaker 2: now Ford Foundations, it's all been taken over by leftists
- 4:36Speaker 2: and their big endowments, and then they've ballooned and grown
- 4:39Speaker 2: in over a century. But they really the Rockefellers, Tides, Ford,
- 4:45Speaker 2: they pioneered the art of using tax dollars as a
- 4:49Speaker 2: force multiplier for their own agendas. They get grants to
- 4:52Speaker 2: do theoretically ostensibly good things. They took those government grants,
- 4:58Speaker 2: mix it with private cash, and then it just becomes
- 5:01Speaker 2: an ATM machine for radical left wing purposes.
- 5:10Speaker 1: They don't make it easy to find it. If you
- 5:12Speaker 1: do a search on Google. What a shock Government Accountability
- 5:16Speaker 1: Institute G hyphen a hypheni dot org. G hyphen a
- 5:23Speaker 1: hypheni dot org is how you find them? Seamus Berner
- 5:27Speaker 1: with US, Seamus, what should a taxpayer do? In response
- 5:32Speaker 1: to this?
- 5:33Speaker 2: Well, I think the exposure of these formerly dark money,
- 5:39Speaker 2: I mean it's still dark money in the sense that
- 5:41Speaker 2: we cannot track it all the way, but we have
- 5:44Speaker 2: the nine nineties. That's the best you can do is code.
- 5:47Speaker 2: We come through thousands and thousands of pages of IRS
- 5:51Speaker 2: Forum nine nineties of these big left wing NGOs shining
- 5:56Speaker 2: the sunlight as we've been doing, and many others, especially
- 6:00Speaker 2: on Arabella, and then people get upset about it, and
- 6:03Speaker 2: now they can't hide in the shadows anymore. So this
- 6:05Speaker 2: was big news yesterday that Arabella. I mean, it's it's
- 6:08Speaker 2: a rebrand. I don't you know. We're not taking victory
- 6:11Speaker 2: laps here, but you know, when it when it gets exposed,
- 6:14Speaker 2: they have to recalculate. They've lawyered up. There's been a
- 6:17Speaker 2: few articles since since that White House roundtable where we
- 6:21Speaker 2: talked about riot inc. They are they are lawyering up.
- 6:25Speaker 2: They're taking steps to hide their trails and you know
- 6:29Speaker 2: they're they're on the run. I'd say, now they're gonna
- 6:31Speaker 2: They're not going away. But we just got to keep
- 6:33Speaker 2: spreading the word, sharing the news. Thank you so much
- 6:36Speaker 2: for having me on talking about it and letting other
- 6:40Speaker 2: people know that their taxpayer dollars are funding and we
- 6:43Speaker 2: talked about riot Inc. We've actually got a big report
- 6:46Speaker 2: on migration inc. How your tax dollars have funded this
- 6:49Speaker 2: invasion and the resettlement going on. That is why I
- 6:53Speaker 2: believe these big NGOs are funding anti ICE protests. It's
- 6:56Speaker 2: because it's the same people who funded the invasion. And
- 7:01Speaker 2: then why did they do that? It's because they fund
- 7:04Speaker 2: the get out the vote operations. It's the same players
- 7:06Speaker 2: funding the They know that they can get non citizens
- 7:10Speaker 2: onto the voter roles, either legally or illegally, and so
- 7:14Speaker 2: this industrial operation. The more we expose it, the more
- 7:18Speaker 2: the Trump administration goes after it. You know, I, like
- 7:20Speaker 2: many people, wish there would be a lot more arrests
- 7:25Speaker 2: sooner than later. Yeah, if we don't fix this soon,
- 7:29Speaker 2: they're going to use it in twenty six and twenty eight.
- 7:33Speaker 2: And you know, we won an election last time, but
- 7:35Speaker 2: that nothing's guaranteed.
- 7:37Speaker 1: Here Seamus you talk about I'll call it a kind
- 7:40Speaker 1: of a hard rebrand that Arabella's going to be in
- 7:42Speaker 1: the midst of doing. Then there are soft rebrands. I
- 7:46Speaker 1: consider Bill Gates backing off of his climate hysteria to
- 7:50Speaker 1: be a very significant, important, but a soft rebrand. What
- 7:54Speaker 1: are we to make of Gates sort of saying, yeah, okay,
- 7:58Speaker 1: maybe not so much. It's not so bad.
- 8:02Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I you know, I think it's pretty cynical.
- 8:05Speaker 2: He's he's he's got a lot of interest that the
- 8:08Speaker 2: administration can affect. That's why you saw all these tech
- 8:11Speaker 2: bros lining up to fund the inauguration. I think President
- 8:15Speaker 2: Trump is trying to keep his enemies closer with this.
- 8:18Speaker 2: I hope, you know, having them to dinner and all
- 8:21Speaker 2: of that. But I mean, the FCC, the FEC, anti DOJ's,
- 8:25Speaker 2: anti trust, these guys, Zuckerberg's Gates, they all could the
- 8:30Speaker 2: Trump administration could make big problems for them. So I
- 8:32Speaker 2: think it's he's doing it to you know, I don't
- 8:34Speaker 2: think he's a well, first of all, I don't think
- 8:36Speaker 2: he was a true believer ever. I mean, he's the
- 8:38Speaker 2: biggest user of energy with his He's got two private jets,
- 8:43Speaker 2: a couple of seaplanes and helicopters, yacht, a sixty six
- 8:47Speaker 2: thousand square foot mansion in Washington. The guy doesn't believe
- 8:51Speaker 2: in climate change. He uses that as a tool for
- 8:54Speaker 2: control and to actually increase his bottom line get investments
- 8:58Speaker 2: into his so called green tech energy ventures. But I
- 9:02Speaker 2: think I think it's good for us. I mean, at
- 9:04Speaker 2: the end of the day, it's good for us that
- 9:06Speaker 2: he has retreated. They were gaslighting us about this the
- 9:08Speaker 2: whole time. Now we can hold that up and say,
- 9:10Speaker 2: wait a second, I thought you said it was going
- 9:12Speaker 2: to be a catastrophe. Now you say it's not going
- 9:14Speaker 2: to be a catastrophe, Well, then we're not going to
- 9:16Speaker 2: do what you say was banning our gas stove or
- 9:19Speaker 2: banning banning steaks and cows here, which is what he
- 9:23Speaker 2: was one of the guys pushing Seamus.
- 9:25Speaker 1: Give me, give me your your take on the importance
- 9:29Speaker 1: of getting more information out. Regarding Jeffrey Epstein, I have
- 9:34Speaker 1: mixed feelings given what I read of Clay Higgins and
- 9:37Speaker 1: his reason for voting against the release. I feel like
- 9:41Speaker 1: he's got a principled argument here that there they're going
- 9:44Speaker 1: to be some innocent people dragged through the mud that
- 9:47Speaker 1: are in these files, and and the media is just
- 9:50Speaker 1: not going to know any restraint whatsoever. But but Epstein's
- 9:54Speaker 1: got some other entanglements and involvements. Do you feel like
- 9:57Speaker 1: there's more to come?
- 9:59Speaker 2: You know, this is one of those things that's gonna
- 10:01Speaker 2: be like the jfk assassination or nine to eleven, or
- 10:06Speaker 2: no matter how much information people get, they're never going
- 10:10Speaker 2: to be satisfied. So that's unfortunate because you know, you'd
- 10:14Speaker 2: like to be able to close the case and move on.
- 10:17Speaker 2: But the problem is is that Jeffrey Epstein and Galaine Maxwell,
- 10:21Speaker 2: they were charged with trafficking minors to nobody apparently, And
- 10:26Speaker 2: so as long as I mean as if there needs
- 10:29Speaker 2: to peaches even one arrest of a guilty person, obviously,
- 10:33Speaker 2: and you see people like Larry Summers, and it's it's
- 10:36Speaker 2: going to it's going to hit the Democrats artist because
- 10:40Speaker 2: all of the people who are closest to them are
- 10:42Speaker 2: huge Democrat thunders. I mean, yes, I mean it's a
- 10:44Speaker 2: small world. By the way, the billionaire class who have
- 10:48Speaker 2: places in both Palm Beach and New York. So when
- 10:51Speaker 2: Donald Trump is you know, friends with so called friends
- 10:54Speaker 2: with Jeffrey Epstein. You're not talking about a huge group
- 10:57Speaker 2: of people. I mean the number of galas and dinner
- 10:59Speaker 2: parties and things that people who live both there, it's
- 11:02Speaker 2: actually really really small. So of course they were bound
- 11:04Speaker 2: to run into each other. You know, Jeffrey Epstein was
- 11:08Speaker 2: by all accounts charismatic guy, and so yes, there are
- 11:13Speaker 2: innocent people who knew him, and people think, oh, you
- 11:15Speaker 2: must be guilty because you knew him, or even flying
- 11:17Speaker 2: on the jet. I mean that's not and even attending
- 11:19Speaker 2: the island is not evidence of guilt. The problem is
- 11:22Speaker 2: that there are guilty people and until any anyone is
- 11:26Speaker 2: brought to justice, and the statute of limitations on crimes
- 11:29Speaker 2: against miners is I don't believe there is one in
- 11:32Speaker 2: some cases, so they really do need to arrest. And
- 11:36Speaker 2: the thing, I've got many questions left, and so I'm
- 11:39Speaker 2: glad the files are coming out. You know, innocent people
- 11:43Speaker 2: I think will remain innocent. I don't think anybody's gonna
- 11:46Speaker 2: grab pitchforks and torches and and and you know, lynch them.
- 11:50Speaker 2: But you know, it's it's a tricky thing because until somebody,
- 11:54Speaker 2: you know, when you're talking about crimes against miners. That's
- 11:57Speaker 2: people get really upset about that, understandably, and so you'd
- 12:00Speaker 2: love for I know, a couple. I mean, so, here's
- 12:03Speaker 2: one thing I reported in the book Control of Arts
- 12:06Speaker 2: about Bill Gates's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein is it ran
- 12:09Speaker 2: through the bank JP Morgan, and there was an executive
- 12:13Speaker 2: at that bank. And I've seen the emails between that
- 12:16Speaker 2: executive and Jeffrey Epstein and they are horrific. I mean,
- 12:20Speaker 2: you just search for JP Morgan at Jeffrey Epstein. Disney
- 12:26Speaker 2: characters the executive name, and he's, by the way, been
- 12:29Speaker 2: indicted on several other charges for other things. So's he's
- 12:35Speaker 2: not a good guy, the JP Morgan executive. But Disney
- 12:39Speaker 2: was referring, you know, I was with Beauty there, I
- 12:42Speaker 2: was with Belle last time, or you know snow White
- 12:45Speaker 2: last time. They're using code names talking about his time
- 12:48Speaker 2: at the island in return your stomach. Don't don't read
- 12:51Speaker 2: the emails, but they're out there. The New York Post
- 12:54Speaker 2: reported them and others. So there is enough smoke here
- 12:57Speaker 2: and even some fire that people really want some justice.
- 13:00Speaker 2: I'm one of the people who wants a guy who
- 13:03Speaker 2: went to the island and committed crimes against children. Yeah,
- 13:06Speaker 2: brought to justice. So until that happens, I think there's
- 13:09Speaker 2: going to be a lot of anger about it. And
- 13:12Speaker 2: I'm glad that, you know, the Trump administration kind of
- 13:14Speaker 2: came around to it.
- 13:16Speaker 1: Seamus, thanks for the time you've been generous with it
- 13:18Speaker 1: this morning. We're here for you anytime you want to
- 13:21Speaker 1: get some things out there to some folks. So we
- 13:23Speaker 1: may be a small pond, but we have a big splash.
- 13:27Speaker 2: Yes you do, Yes you do. Precidval. Thank you so much,
- 13:30Speaker 2: have a great morning.
- 13:31Speaker 1: Thank you, sir. Seamus Berner with us from the Government
- 13:34Speaker 1: Accountability Institute. He's the director of research his book Controlled Garks.
- 13:38Speaker 1: We had him on when the book came out and
- 13:41Speaker 1: again meticulously researched. Gee. I just doesn't mess around with
- 13:48Speaker 1: that stuff. That's why they're so respected because they just
- 13:55Speaker 1: where the evidence leads is where they go. And if
- 13:57Speaker 1: that's on the right side of the aisle, it's on
- 13:59Speaker 1: the right side of the out if it's on the left,
- 14:01Speaker 1: it's on the left. So my thanks to him and
- 14:04Speaker 1: all the work that they do with the Government Accountability Institute.
- 14:07Speaker 1: Twenty seven minutes past the hour,
