Okay, we're going to go ahead and get started. And I'm going to apologize to everybody that was watching on Rumble yesterday, because in the middle of the broadcast on Rumble, well, towards the end anyway, my husband decided to
0:31
Well, let me start over. I have a cottage that we're trying to move all of my books and stuff in because they're like everywhere, all over the motorhome, all over the house. And I just in the last couple of days started doing these shows from in here. And I use the Wi-Fi that's in the RV. And because it's at the back of we live in an on an acre and the one at the house doesn't reach back here.
1:00
very well. So I'm on there and he was replacing a switch because our side mirrors, the relay, stopped working on the last trip. So he starts up the motorhome. And when he does that, the shore power switches over to the motorhome and the Wi-Fi drops. And it didn't matter how long it restarted. I could see the signal.
1:26
But I couldn't reconnect the live stream. So I apologize profusely for that. Went in and asked him the next time, hey, you know what? When I'm recording, please don't do that. That was absolutely crazy. But anyway, we obviously are new at all of this and are doing our best. So.
1:56
Be that as it may, I do have the live stream up and running over on the Colonel's Corner on Rumble for anyone that wants to get over there. And I'm just going to make a post over there. And then we're going to get started. Oh, there you go. SR-71, first in line, always. All right. So just so that you guys know that when we start these spaces, when...
2:35
Cousin It and Bridget hand out microphones during the show. There's a momentary glitch that happens on my end when you guys come up to the speaker. And I'm usually looking between the phone and my laptop. And it's very distracting. So we're going to hold off on handing out the mics until much further into the program.
3:02
Um, unlike we normally do, um, just so that we can avoid that distraction. Um, cause for me it's like squirrel and you know, then I've got to look. So, um, that's all on me and it just helps me out a lot. Okay. So we're going to, everyone knows that we started, um, with, uh, Libya before.
3:29
And then, of course, over the weekend, we had the assassination attempt. So we spent yesterday going over that. And I appreciate all of you, your support and you being here to listen. I was glad I was able to grab Warhamster and Brian Gamble and Brian Cates in order for them to come in and give you guys some varying views on some very controversial issues.
4:00
I'm also going to ask all of you that when you see over the next several days people talking about the attempted assassination, if you guys would use the hashtag Operation Gladio without a space, Operation Gladio, I would really appreciate it. It is a very small, free gesture.
4:27
that you can do to get the word out. Because when you search on that hashtag, you find all of our content. And not all of it, but a lot of it. And again, I realize everybody has concerns right now about how you can support our effort if you don't have any money. And quite frankly, I fully appreciate that.
4:55
What we're doing, we're doing because we love America, not because we're looking to be paid. But there are small things that you can do that cost absolutely nothing that makes a huge big deal. And using that hashtag will be one of those things. So I don't ask for much in return. I am going to ask that any major account that you see talking about the attempted assassination, please just put that hashtag on it.
5:24
That will go a long way because I want people to genuinely look into this for themselves. Also, just before I came out here, I was watching a video that was posted on X that it was like something wokeness, like eliminate wokeness. It's a big major account that cleverly said that.
5:52
And it's like at the top of my feet if you guys go look. Cleverly said that we have broke the left because they were out obviously on the strand in Los Angeles. I recognize the area having lived out there. So they're in like the Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, El Segundo, Venice Beach kind of area.
6:19
The guy standing there with the microphone asking people what they thought about it. And it was like almost every single one of them was, well, Trump just did that for attention. And his comment was that we have broke the left. And technically, the left was broke a long time ago. But I did I did point out that.
6:48
The most amazing thing to me with my hashtag Operation Gladio is the fact that there is, and I have presented it to you guys, we're going on almost a year now, both between True Social and X, in illuminating the mountains of evidence that the CIA assassinates heads of state. And yet not a single...
7:17
person the guy stuck a microphone in front of goes, oh, no, that was the CIA. Not one. And there's overwhelming evidence that that would have been the case. Trump's only been around for three or what, five or six, seven years, eight years, almost eight years now, nine if you include the year he was running. Trump didn't come up with assassinations.
7:47
There's one particular organization that has a very long record of them. So I just thought that was funny. And I'm really debating on this whole second part two to the Libya, which is going to primarily focus on Benghazi. And I think, again, I do the bottom line up front so everybody can understand the context that I'm going to present this information in.
8:17
With the names of these organizations, because many of them are Middle Eastern, it gets very confusing. And I don't want to leave anybody confused. So I'm going to kind of reiterate.
8:33
routinely through here. And I don't do this because I think you're stupid, but it took me reading these articles like four or five times going back and go, oh, that's this group. Oh, that's this group. Because you just lose track of them because they have these crazy names compared to, you know, names we're used to seeing. So what I want to do is just kind of give you the bottom line up front. The bottom line is that, and most of you know this, but I want to clarify it. Benghazi,
9:03
was a port of entry. And probably, ladies, the very first thing to do is to get a map of Libya and where Benghazi is up there in the top so that people can actually follow along with what we're talking about. If you look at Benghazi,
9:32
you quickly realize that it is a port city and it is located in a very strategic area right next door to Egypt, right across the Mediterranean from Greece, Italy, right around the little bay area from Tripoli. You've got Tanzania over to the west.
10:01
So this is a critical area. And we know unequivocally that not only were the CIA trying to overthrow Libya, they have had strategy of tension, disruption capability in Egypt. You've got right around the bend, Israel. Right around the bend is Beirut.
10:30
You've got Cyprus and you have Turkey. And all of those areas are places where you have a lot of destabilization. Now, look just north past Greece and remember everything that we talked about, about Bulgaria. Bulgaria was one of the biggest weapons. They're like probably second only to Israel from a weapons.
11:00
trafficking type scenario where they fake documentation as to it appearing to be from a government when it's not. Massive weapons exports from Bulgaria. So you go around out the port of Bulgaria through the straits there in Turkey by Istanbul and right down to Benghazi. And Benghazi then becomes the port for the entire
11:30
northern part of Africa. And when you're looking at the northern part of Africa, look at what you have. Egypt, Sudan, Chad, Niger, Algeria, Mali. Oh, look, Burkina Faso, Nigeria. Every one of those has had coups and destabilization efforts by the CIA and NATO.
12:01
in a recolonialization of the northern part of Africa. And a lot of those arms was coming in through Benghazi. So I'm not going to pretend to know things that I don't. We all believe, but it is hypothetical or an assumption, that the State Department cadre
12:30
that was in Benghazi under the tutelage of the CIA oversight was using the port of Benghazi as a thoroughfare to arm militias that the CIA was supporting. That is a plausible hypothesis. And to go along with that, we talked about
12:58
The guy last on Friday, Khalifa Haftar, I mentioned him several times. He is a known CIA asset, and he represented the opposition forces in Libya. Now, having said that, Haftar is a name that we have to remember throughout this entire session here.
13:31
Hochter is basically the head honcho for the CIA conduit in Libya at the time. So I want to go back and I want to read a couple of things to put into context what was going on. Because it pulls together a couple of, and I'm going to send this article over to...
14:02
Bridget and Liza so they can post it. This article talks a lot about the connection between NATO, Turkey, and what was going on in Libya. So buckle up. It starts with the latest report from the Syrian Observation for Human Rights.
14:30
report that says on June 15th of 2020 that there was a large force of almost 14,000 mercenary jihadists recruited from Turkey that was deployed into Libya. And you're like, yeah, but Benghazi was way before that.
15:00
I know that, but I want you to understand how these people operate because this is basically exactly what happened prior to Benghazi. Among these people were thousands of militants from ISIS, Al-Qaeda, and other Al-Qaeda factions with various names. Now, when you hear Al-Qaeda and you hear ISIS, you need to think CIA.
15:30
So basically, to me, what that just said was you have Operation Gladio assets that were recruited and trained in Turkey being deployed to Libya. And at least 200 of them have left Libya on boats across the Mediterranean into Europe. So you are training these people.
16:04
in Turkey. And it is likely that the same weapons boats that are going through the Straits of Turkey from Bulgaria, a known weapons trafficking country for Operation Gladio, is picking up the people as they go through the Straits there in Turkey and delivering them across the Mediterranean. Very short ship ride across the Mediterranean.
16:34
These people are wrecking havoc in all of Southern Europe. It talks about this Hochtar guy saying his political plots are under an international conspiracy that brings to mind the same type of Northern African people that were collected along the way by the Allies when they landed in Southern Italy during World War II.
17:07
They didn't just bring allied forces with them. They picked up a lot of the terrorists that had been trained by the colonial powers in northern Africa. Because remember, all of the countries in the north part of Africa prior to World War II pretty much were all colonial powers.
17:37
the European colonialists. And so they had their own trained indigenous people that had sold out their peers in these countries. Those people were also brought along in order to wreak havoc through the Italian peninsula as the Allies made their way up.
18:05
And some of the people and some of the stories that I have heard about that, they were just devastatingly ruthless. They did things that the Allied forces didn't want their names attached to. We'll just leave it at that. The jihadist mission in Libya was, however, received the praise by the Italian diplomatic corps that had been detached to.
18:32
Libya and Egypt. So they're basically like clapping seals over what is going on, what they know to be going on in their own country, but in addition, what is going on in Libya. And it also talks about that all of this, the importation of these terrorists, is an illegal operation on an international level that
18:58
only the Muslim Brotherhood elements of Turkey could carry out. And I would argue that they're not really the Muslim Brotherhood, although they're under the CIA tutelage as well. It would be more appropriate to say that it's an international level Operation Gladio effort that was launched out of Turkey. That would be my only quibbling with that particular assertion. It also talks about that there was a report that...
19:28
from these human rights people that had done an investigation that the increase in the level of jihadists in Libya was being facilitated by some PR elements, which we read as CIA as well, inside of Libya, or excuse me, Italy as well, and Turkey.
19:56
The Turks have intervened. The government asked the Turks what other countries could not give from a constitutional point of view, from a legislative point of view, or from a general point of view. The Turks played an important role. They are NATO country. They are the second largest NATO army. And Libyans are perfectly aware that they must strengthen relations with other traditionally friendly countries. Therefore,
20:26
It is not a surprise to see Italy and the U.S. basically behind these efforts. The diplomat Busino was sent to the guide of the embassy of Tripoli in 2019 by the
20:56
Italian foreign minister, and basically he was there to cultivate relationships. And he had previously been the ambassador at Qatar, which of course is one of the main headquarters for the development of the Muslim Brotherhood now, just in general.
21:24
Also, it says that Bosino became the assistant advisor to the Italian president Napolitano, who was one of the proponents of the 2011 overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi. And that was also the French president Sarkozy was firmly behind that, as was Barack Obama. And that, of course, we know is what led to the Arab Spring.
21:51
and the Libyan Civil War that immediately followed. So, again, strategy of tension, disrupt the entire northern part of Africa, and then use that as a staging base to launch terrorist attacks under Operation Gladio in the general vicinity that you want to control. That's kind of the bottom line of what we're reading here.
22:18
And then it talks about how these same forces were used inside of Turkey against the Kurdish people. It also talks about how the King of Jordan has been not necessarily supportive of all these initiatives, but has not stood up against them either. And we know the King of Jordan is basically a stooge of the UK.
22:49
and NATO in general. And then it talks about how this Khalifa Haftar, commander of the Libyan National Army, the LNA, has controlled Benghazi for a very long time. So that's important to know.
23:17
That basically the NATO's interest in Libya, of course, is the gas and oil fields, because, of course, there has to be an international syndicate element to this. And I want to see there was. Oh, here it is. OK, so this is a very important part. He says a whole bunch of other things, but.
23:47
He goes on to say, but now the shadow of the deep state clearly identified by many within the New World Order behind operations in Libya clearly emerges. And this makes the massive presence of jihadists at the gate of Italy and Europe even more disturbing in a country that between 2012 and 15 struggled to free themselves from terrorists and succeeded only thanks to militias in Benghazi.
24:17
This occurs in the great disinterest of the Italian media, both left and right wings, because they are heavily influenced by the Atlantic logic, meaning NATO, and thanks to the intense propaganda activity of Mercury Public Affairs Society in Washington, which professes itself to be a politically bipartisan precisely because it appears to be a tool.
24:47
of both the Republicans and the Democrats, of the deep state powerhouses of, and he categorizes them as finance, international freemasonry, and military intelligence. We call them the international syndicate. But this is very important, guys, because remember what I said, all PR, all major PR firms is controlled by the CIA. So I found this part very interesting. Mercury.
25:14
the PR firm, is controlled by a group called Omnicom, O-M-N-I-C-O-M group, Omnicom group, one of the world's largest communication giants and is also profitably committed to both big pharma and the weapons lobby, mainly their big investor, BlackRock.
25:47
along with Military Industrial Complex. In other words, it's an international syndicate company at the behest of the CIA. So I went and looked at, let's see, Omnicron. And it talks about having acquired Mercury Public Affairs. And I just wanted to read a couple of things about it because I found it very interesting.
26:17
Mercury Public Affairs was started in 1999 by founding member Kiernan Mahoney, who was a campaign advisor to Governor George Pataki, Senator Al D'Amato, and Robert Dole's 1996 presidential bid.
26:46
former Director of Polling and Deputy Political Director of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, and Kirill, K-I-R-I-L-L, and I'm going to spell this last name, G-O-N-C-H-A-R-E-N-K-O, who was formerly Senior Vice President of Public Affairs for Mariner Post-Acute Network,
27:16
a $3 billion long-term medical care facility. Their clients also include AT&T, a known CIA. CIA loves doing business with AT&T. America's blood centers. That's scary. Lockheed, Pacific Gas and Electric, Sallie Mae, and other healthcare. Florida Power and Light. So these...
27:46
are like big hitting entities. And the fact that this is both a Democrat and Republican entity screams CIA. And I'm going to post this over there for them to post up in the pill as well. So let me get that done and we're going to continue.
28:16
All right. So the next article that I found about that same organization, it says Open Secrets has released documents which disclose Mercury LLC is behind the scenes to side with an organization called PPP.
28:45
and use propaganda against the current government. This was written in 2020. Mercury is being paid to influence the elections. This doesn't look like a business promotional campaign. It looks like foreign meddling, maybe CIA meddling. And this is written about Guyana, of all places, which we know all about.
29:15
And the PPP is a political organization inside of Guyana. And this is basically a CIA cutout, Mercury LLC, interfering in an election in Guyana again. We've already, when we covered Guyana, told you that the CIA did this repeatedly. Correspondence has shown that Mercury is liaisoning.
29:45
with members of the OAS, and that's the Organization of Americas, and that is also a CIA cutout, and the U.S. government to vouch for the PPP while using excuses such as Guyana is near Venezuela. So they are basically saying that...
30:07
These organizations, to include the CIA, is basically saying it's fine to interfere with Guyana because it's critically important to the U.S. because they're next door to Venezuela. And they will have an excuse to interfere in everybody's election because everybody's critically important to the U.S., even though none of them are. They're critically important to the international syndicate and they're stealing the resources of these countries.
30:34
but they are not critically important to you and I. So one baffling revelation is that the ramblings of a guy by the name of Mr. Freddy Cassone, he is a journalist who suffered physical violence under the PPP during a wave of assassinations of political dissidents. But recently, Mr. Cassone was complaining.
31:03
that those who resisted the lies, propaganda, and bullying do not love their country. Doesn't that sound familiar? He has also written in a way more angry tones in his past articles, though no one in the current government has attacked him or his family. Wouldn't it be foolish to assume that one should love Guyana by way of the PPP quote-unquote democracy when
31:29
The opponent is pleading for international sanctions. That's an oxymoron. So people who love Guyana should be villaging against the lies and propaganda and falsehoods that are being doled out by the Mercury Public Affairs LLC. So there you go. Just one example. There's many. If you guys want to take that up and look at it, it becomes readily apparent what was going on. So I want to set the stage.
31:59
Having said all of that, the actual will go over some of what happened September 11, 2012, in Benghazi. Basically, you had on that morning, the staff at the U.S. Special Missions in Benghazi woke up to the sight of a Libyan policeman deployed to guard them.
32:30
filming the compound from a neighboring rooftop. When challenged, he left. Later, an unmarked car made circles around the compound, a walled-off compound rented in the southern suburbs of the Libyan city. And what I'm going to do is I'm going to go back and forth. This is an excellent article where it talks about what the U.S. government said.
33:00
versus what was actually happening on the ground. So the U.S. government says, quote, the State Department says there is no warning signs of impending attack, that there was nothing unusual during the day. The actual evidence said two days earlier, the ambassador to Libya, Chris Stevens, had received a veiled warning. According to a later declassified cable,
33:30
One of his diplomats had a meeting with two Islamic militant leaders, militia leaders, in which they complained that the U.S. was supporting a secular leader, Mahmoud Jibril, G-I-B-R-I-L, in a vote for prime minister that was due to happen on 12 September. If Jibril won, they warned, there would no longer be a guarantee of security.
34:00
The consulate was already relying on one of the militias called the February 17th Martyr Brigade for armed protection. Now, let me just stop right there. You have diplomats in a foreign country that is relying on a local militia called February 17th Martyr Brigade.
34:33
for protection. There is everything wrong with that Senate. Everything. That's the biggest bunch of bullshit I've ever heard in my life. In the words of a subsequent report by the U.S. Senate Homeland Security Committee, warning lights were flashing neon red. As the day went on, news came in of attacks by radicals on the U.S. embassy in Cairo. Now, remember I told you that
35:04
Libya is right next door to Cairo. And the arms coming in through Benghazi very easily made it into Egypt. And that entire made-up bullshit, that was supposedly, we were told, due to an actual reaction to that crazy innocence of Muslims film that was released in America.
35:35
So you can imagine that that is staged in Cairo as the precursor to use it as the excuse for the attack on the Benghazi embassy. So someone is setting this entire thing up. So the excuse that the U.S. State Department used of the release of that video, the entire narrative got started during the day earlier of an event in Cairo, Egypt.
36:05
So they pointed to that event in Cairo, Egypt, as the reason why the embassy in Benghazi got. So they are now coordinating the attack on the Benghazi consulate with additional precepts occurring in Egypt. So you can already see this is a transnational effort to do what's about ready to happen.
36:36
because you are using the setup in Egypt next door. The CIA sent a cable to its foreign stations warning of possible quote-unquote copycat incidents. So the CIA is announcing they are going to use that as the precedence to launch a similar attack in Benghazi. The anniversary of the 9-11 attacks also preyed on the minds of the compound staff.
37:06
In a letter found in the ruins by Guardian, Stevens wrote, quote, for security reasons, we'll need to be careful about limiting moves off compound and scheduling as many meetings as possible in the villa, unquote. At least one man inside the compound was anxious. Sean Smith, a 34-year-old information management officer, accompanying the ambassador on the visit.
37:37
quote, assuming we don't die tonight, we saw one of our police that guard the compound taking pictures, unquote. Hours later, he was dead. And again, I'm going to talk to you about events and then what the U.S. said about these events. So these are some different set of events. Diners at a upscale restaurant across the street from the mission watched as dozens
38:08
of armed militiamen gathered in the dusk by the compound's rear gate. So they're not hiding anything they're doing. They're out in the open, gathering at the rear compound gate. The compound had four buildings with gardens, and it was all walled off. One of the militia jeeps bore the black banner of a local militia called Ansar al-Baghdadi.
38:38
Sharia. The militiamen made no attempt to hide. They were sipping coffee. There were people over at the cafe watching them. And they see two pickup trucks packed with militiamen bearing the same banner heading for the mission. Neighbors saw militia four by fours blocking streets leading to the compound. So now they're blocking it off to keep
39:08
bystanders out of the area that they're going to be launching the attack in. All were surprised that there was no reaction from the compound as these forces begin to gather. There are eight to 12 guys just hanging around the gate. They had guns. They were just waiting. There was one Ansar al-Sharia flag. About 10 minutes later, there were these booms.
39:37
from over the other side of the compound. The gate came open and this guy put his head out and shouted at him, get back inside. The U.S. version of what happened was the State Department insists the compound had been well fortified, that the walls had been raised to 12 feet tall and topped with barbed wire and Constantina wire. The villa had been prepared.
40:07
In the event that the walls were breached, it was surrounded by sandbag emplacements and fitted with grills on the windows and bulletproof steel doors. Security cameras covered the site. The conflicting evidence was most of the walls running around the compound were no taller than 8 feet tall. The rear wall also had no wire.
40:33
Two days after the attack, the landlord showed the guardian where attackers had scrambled over. It was easy for them, he said. Whether cameras were mounted outside the compound is unclear, but failure to see what diners at the restaurant could see in the 10 minutes before the attack had significant consequences. So that night at 9.42, the events were as follows. The diners heard muffled explosions from the far side of the compound.
41:02
The militiamen outside readied their weapons. Then the metal gate swung open and an unarmed Libyan guard put his head out. One of the militias ordered him back inside. The guard pulled the door closed. After a few moments, the militiamen opened fire. At that moment, everyone ran to the back of the restaurant. The first thing occupants of the compound knew about the forces amassing against them was the sound of shouting and detonations at the front entrance.
41:33
Gunmen got in by walking up to a small cabin by the front gate, jamming a gun in the face of an unarmed Libyan guard and demanding he open up. But he had already opened the gate. On the monitor at the communication hub known as the Tactical Operations Center, the TAC, an agent from Diplomatic Security, the State Department Security Force, saw the front gate open.
42:00
Armed men streaming through it. This is at 9.42. And Libyan guards running for their lives. He activated the alarm. The U.S. version of what happened from the State Department? They insist security was more than adequate that night because five security agents were in place, more than the recommended three, but not the requested number of much more by the consulate staff.
42:30
supported by five unarmed Libyan guards, unarmed, and three armed militiamen from the Martyr Brigade. The conflicting evidence to the U.S. version is this. In the preceding months, Stephen had cabled three times, asking for more protection or that plans to draw down security be halted, according to the House Oversight Report.
43:00
Those months had seen escalating attacks against foreign targets in the city. Commonwealth war graves had been smashed. The Tanzanian consulate stormed. A Sudanese diplomat attacked. A UN convoy bombed. And the office of the International Committee for Red Cross rocket attacked. After two bodyguards of the British ambassador
43:30
were wounded in a rocket attack on the UK consulate, London closed their mission down. The US mission had been struck twice by homemade bombs thrown from the outside of the wall inside. But even as attacks in the Benghazi escalated, Washington decreased the security in line with an official position that Libya, post-revolution, was normalizing.
43:59
Three quick reaction security detachments named Situation Security Teams deployed in Tripoli were withdrawn in the summer despite objections of their chief, Colonel Andrew Wood. He later told CBS that losing those units was likely being asked to play the piano with two fingers.
44:24
On August 15th, the day after Wood was withdrawn, Stevens cabled Washington to say the security in Benghazi was left dangerously exposed. He worried that February 17th, the militia, the martyr militia, was becoming unreliable. A dispute over payment by the embassy meant the brigade's militiamen no longer guarded the convoys outside the compound, which would be, by the way, the weapons convoys.
44:55
In addition, the police officers supposed to guard the mission were often late. The Pentagon's regional headquarters, AFRICOM, based in Stuttgart, Germany, not even in Africa, offered to send soldiers to fill the gap, but Stevens declined, according to an official review of the incident report.
45:22
So I don't know whether that's true or not. I can't believe that he's asking for help and would turn down help. It is more likely that that offer to help was not a real offer. The result was that on the night of September 11th, dozens of attackers were surging through the main gate, ranged against a force of five agents.
45:50
There are questions over the readiness of this small security detail. Four of the agents were with Stevens as the attack happened, while the fifth was in the talk. In the event that outside wall was breached, the procedure was to take position at the sandbag emplacements. But three of the four agents with Stevens had left their rifles, helmet, and body armor in the accommodation block, according to the review.
46:19
Standard procedure for the U.S. Army in hostile deployments is for weapons to be carried at all times, even on trips to the bathroom. Why the security agents did not have those weapons is unclear. They sprinted across the compound to the accommodation block to get their weapons, while the remaining agents who had his rifle hustled Stevens and Smith inside. By the time the other three had their weapons, attackers were around the villa blocking their path.
46:47
They retreated, locking themselves in safe rooms in the barracks in the dock. Along with the agent already there, with only one security agent at the villa, the plan for all-along defense was no longer possible. At 10 minutes till 10 o'clock at night, these events happened. Inside the villa, Stevens sent a frantic message to Gregory Hicks, American deputy ambassador in Tripoli, telling him we're under attack. According to Hicks' testimony,
47:18
The chief of Benghazi, Supreme Security Committee, Libya's police, was phoned by frantic diplomats saying, I spoke to the Americans. They're saying, please help us. Inside the compound, the attackers set fire to the guardhouse near the gate and others rushed to the villa. A rocket-propelled grenade slammed into the lintel above the front doors, jarring them open.
47:47
The gunman rushed inside. The lone security agent led Stevens and Smith into a final place of refuge, the safe haven, and locked the gate. Gunmen, unable to penetrate the refuge, drugged furnitures outside and threw it into the pool. Others wrecked the villa interior, pouring fuel on the floor. The safe haven was a walled-off section of the villa constructed with sturdy doors to provide a final refuge.
48:17
Sorry, the U.S. version was that they created that to provide the refuge in case the villa was stormed. The conflicting evidence says that the safe haven constructed in the spring had a serious flaw. The door to the haven were not solid metal, but a gate of thick steel bars secured by two locks. It's obvious disadvantage.
48:47
was that it offered no protection against the smoke once the villa was set on fire. At 15 minutes after 10 p.m., in minutes the villa was blazing fiercely, filling the safe haven with smoke. The security agent led Stevens and Smith to an escape hatch in the wall. He tumbled out to the patio outside only to find the diplomats had not followed. He returned to hunt for them, but was forced back by the smoke.
49:18
Finally gasping for breaths, he clambered up a ladder to the roof where he phoned his security comrades. The other agents, meanwhile, were locked in the two safe rooms built in the dock and barracks. The attackers entered the buildings, ransacked each, and set them on fire, but do not penetrate the safe rooms. On the roof of the villa, the agent, with his voice hoarse from smoke inhalation,
49:44
phoned his comrades, and told them what the situation was. The four agents broke out of their safe room and met him. Nearby was a white armored 4x4, which the attackers had not wrecked. The location of the attackers were not clear. The agents were able to get into the vehicle, start the engine, and drive the short distance across the compound to the blazing villa. Here, they too went into the safe haven to look for the diplomats, but were driven back by the smoke.
50:12
Here's what the U.S. said about it. The State Department account says that the agents were under prolonged fire throughout the ordeal with battle raging in the compound grounds. Quote, there is considerable firing going on outside, unquote. They also said there were tracer bullets, there's smoke, there's explosions. I can't tell you that they were RPGs, but I think they were RPGs. So there's a lot of action going on.
50:42
Here's what the evidence showed. The testimony of heavy firing is hard to reconcile with the lack of bullet holes in any of the buildings. The villa's sandy walls are still blackened by the smoke from the fire, but there are very few bullet holes here or in any of the other buildings, nor are their spent casings visible. At least on the paths and asphalt, the front gate has no sign of damage except
51:12
Two bullet holes. The only sign of heavy firing is at the rear gate, with holes from 23 rounds fired into the compound and six fired out. This gunfight is not mentioned in the accounts made public. From the time of the attack to the time they were summoned, four of the five security agents were in hiding. Ten minutes later, the events, six, um, a six.
51:43
person force of Americans with 40 friendly militiamen fought their way through to the compound from a second U.S. base a mile away. At 10.50, which would have been about 30 minutes later, the message went out, firing has stopped. That went to Washington. At the villa, they met the five security agents suffering from smoke inhalation and got into
52:14
the safe haven through an escape hatch. They found the body of Smith and dragged it out. Stevens was still missing. The compound was now clear of attackers and the reinforcements took charge, ordering the five security agents to leave. Outside the compound, their 4x4 was ambushed, bullets slamming into the body and shredding two tires, but they made it to the second compound.
52:40
The new force spent 15 minutes hunting for Stevens before deciding that they too, there were too few of them in case of a new attack. At 11 p.m., they abandoned the site with Stevens still missing. The most, okay, so the U.S. version of that event, the most authoritative of half of a dozen investigations initiated in Washington say, according to the report compiled by senior intel and state officials,
53:11
The relief force of U.S. personnel and their base at what they call the Annex, Charlene Lamb, the State Department official responsible for security, testified that reinforcements were a quick action team stationed nearby. The Senate Homeland Security Report described the second base as a place used by another agency of the U.S. government. I think they're talking about the CIA.
53:43
The conflicting evidence says that the second base was not an annex, but a CIA facility. According to Frank Wolf, a U.S. congressman who represents the district, contains CIA headquarters Langley. It operated independently from the consulate, and its staff of between 22 and 26 agents deward that of the consulate.
54:12
and its normal complement of two diplomats. It was these agents who formed the force that battled into the compound and took charge. Yet the term CIA did not appear anywhere in the unclassified versions of the accountability report. The apparent desire to shield the CIA from scrutiny in Washington reached farcical proportions last November when Lamb testified at the House of Representatives Oversight Committee.
54:41
She produced a blow-up photograph of the CIA facility, but before she could explain what it was, panel member Jason Chaffetz, a Republican from Utah, called for it to be removed. The committee chair, Daryl Issa, another Republican, was at first incredulous. These are people from the State Department. I assume they wouldn't come here unless it's cleared. Chaffetz was gone.
55:11
Chairman, I was told specifically while I was in Libya, I could not and should not talk ever about what you are being shown here today. Let that sink in, guys. Let that sink in. These assholes are in a congressional hearing about people being murdered in a foreign country, gun running. And you have a congressman, Jason.
55:47
Chaffetz, who supposedly everybody loves telling their members that they are not allowed to see the evidence being presented to them to explain why there's dead Americans murdered in Benghazi and uses as justification. I was told that I couldn't talk and you shouldn't see any of this information.
56:22
Lamb goes on to confirm that the photograph was not classified and was available on Google Earth. After a short discussion, ISA ordered it removed. We're not going to point out details of what may still, in fact, be a facility of the United States government. This is your Congress. It's available on Google Earth, but you're not allowed to see it. In fact, by the time Geisel...
56:52
Issa spoke, the compound in Benghazi was no longer a U.S. facility. The two landlords who owned it showed the site to the Guardian two days after the attack. So it's not classified, everybody, but your Congress is telling you you're not allowed to see it. Pointing to the Libyan families, they were already moving into the accommodations vacated by the Americans. Signs of the U.S. tenants were still visible. Blood covered one wall.
57:23
A whiteboard by the gate bore the instructions, take out your trash, and the Americans' equipment in black packs was stacked on a wall awaiting collection. And the place had never been secret, at least not by any Benghazi resident. The landlords insisted neighbors in the tree-lined residential street knew Americans lived there and their vehicles were present.
57:51
to everybody that would drive by. The bigger question so far unanswered is what the CIA was doing in Benghazi. Neither the Accountability Review Board, the State Department, nor a half a dozen congressional committees ever determined what the CIA was doing there. Isn't that weird? So, moving on. At midnight on 12 September, events.
58:21
Shortly after the CIA and DSS units arrived at the CIA base, it came under rocket attack. The occupants braced themselves for an attack. Meanwhile, seven embassy and CIA staff in Tripoli chartered a plane and flew to Benghazi to be met by the 17, February 17th, martyr militia who escorted them across town to the CIA base. They arrived at 5 a.m. Minutes later, it came under mortar attack.
58:50
The first bomb fell beyond the walls, but the attackers then walked the shells into the compound, meaning they just continued to aim the shells until they got the trajectory correct, walking them into it, just watching them land premature and then just adjusting your sights. Two shells exploded on the roof, killing two CIA contractors, Glenn Daughtery and Tyrone Woods.
59:19
A third man was wounded. At dawn, reinforcements from February 17 and the Libyan police arrived. Now, at dawn would be, you know, six or seven hours later. They escorted the Americans to the airport for evacuation. The U.S. version of what I just told you was evidence given to the Accountability Review Board described an assault against the base with heavy small arms fire. Rockets.
59:48
are not small-arm fire, just so that you're not confused. The conflicting evidence showed, again, the lack of bullet holes on the walls of the facility doesn't say there was any small-arms fire. Rockets were fired at one wall. Mortar struck the roof 15 minutes later.
1:00:20
When the CIA team abandoned the consulate, crowds of local men and boys gathered at the edge of the fighting and moved inside. The fires had died down and they explored, finding unsecured windows into the safe room. Inside, they found Stevens lying in shirt sleeves on the floor. A video timed at a quarter past midnight shows them carrying the ambassador outside onto the patio where he shows signs of life.
1:00:48
There are cries of God is great and bystanders take him to the hospital. The U.S. version of what happened was Washington maintains that every possible effort was made to locate Stevens, except for the stragglers find him. Conflicting evidence. The bystanders put Stevens in a private car. A wounded Libyan guard who.
1:01:13
left his bloody handprint on the front gate was also located and put in a second car. The two cars raced to the main hospital. Its director and staff said they were astonished when the two casualties arrived in the emergency room, with the Libyan guard insisting his companion was the ambassador. Medics could not imagine an ambassador would be left unguarded, nor that if he was missing, no official would try to locate him.
1:01:40
He was rushed inside and the doctors fought for 90 minutes to revive him, but he was declared dead. Still with no communications from U.S. officials, a hospital official found a mobile phone in Stephen's pocket and began punching out dialed numbers. One of these was the phone of an agent now in the CIA base. Only in the morning was a U.S. official being evacuated to the airport. Did Americans go to the hospital?
1:02:09
to get Stephen's body. Pictures of the dead ambassador uploaded by Libyan spread across the internet. On 16 September, the events on that Sunday show was Susan Rice going around blaming the video. And the conflicting evidence was that within hours, her claim was being disputed in Libya.
1:02:38
The Speaker of the Libyan Congress was visiting Benghazi to meet survivors and blamed elements of the Ansar al-Sharia militia for the attacks. In America, many were surprised Rice had chosen to make a statement about the death of a U.S. ambassador. And more properly, the announcement belonged to Hillary Clinton or possibly even the president. There was speculation that Rice, the president's foreign policy advisor,
1:03:08
was being given a high profile in readiness for her to assume a higher position. Evidence from the U.S. survivors debriefed on American soil confirmed the Libyan version of events. There was no protest. Unlike much of the Muslim world, the Libyans saw no protest against the release of innocent Muslims. Ten days after the consulate was stormed, thousands of Benghazi residents, some carrying American flags and placards,
1:03:36
Morning Stevens stormed the base of Sharia, setting it ablaze. Arguments broke out over who gave Rice the information leading to her lies on the Sunday show. After his reelection, Obama named Rice as Secretary of State. Republicans in Congress blocked the nomination, saying that they no longer trusted Rice. And so a couple other.
1:04:07
things. The FBI opened an inquiry into the Benghazi killings. And of course, we know what that means. Absolutely nothing. Leaks from the Obama administration named the Sharia commander Ahmed Abdul Atatla as among the suspects. The Atatla, it's spelled K-H-A-T-T-A-L-A, gave media interviews in Benghazi.
1:04:38
saying that he was at the scene of the attack but insisted he was there to help. Two Tanzania suspects were arrested in Turkey, and an Egyptian was shot dead in an arrest operation in Cairo. Libya announced that it made several arrests, but no one was brought to trial. The father of one of those arrested told The Guardian that those that were held, like his son, were charged with looting.
1:05:07
not the attack. And then, of course, the U.S. version is that they gave it top priority and blah, blah, blah, which is garbage. And the evidence showed it took four weeks for the FBI to even travel to the Benghazi consulate site, where the Guardian shows up two days later. And I'm not an advocate of the Guardian, but if a reporter can show up in two days and it takes the FBI four weeks, tells you everything you need to know.
1:05:38
By the time the area had been combed over by journalists, contaminated all of the evidence, even after the FBI visit, it was possible for the Guardian to recover classified documents scattered at the location. In Tripoli, diplomats contrasted the slowness of the FBI and their forensic specialists who were on the ground. Congressional committees continued to grind through the evidence and take out.
1:06:10
All mentions of CIA out of everything. One year later, after the killings, no suspect had appeared in a court anywhere in the world. And basically, you know, you are where we are now. I don't know if you guys have read Tonto's book.
1:06:36
The guy that was one of the survivors, it's called 13 Hours. It's an excellent book. And there was a film made of his book. But again, those people are contractors and they were CIA contractors. Nothing about what went on over there.
1:07:09
Makes sense when you look at it from what our government has told us with complete evidence that even the Congress was covering up evidence. I did want to read this little bit about an article that was written about the 13 hours, the movie. It says it. Let's see.
1:07:39
Certainly the attacks that took place in Benghazi on the evening of September 11th and into the next morning have been mired in controversy. U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and computer expert Sean Smith died in the first attack, and two former Navy SEALs, Tyrone Woods and Glenn Daughtery, were killed in the second attack. It was the first time that American Ambassador had been killed since 1979, and we covered the killing of that guy because...
1:08:07
If I'm not mistaken, that's the one that happened in Afghanistan by the CIA, by the way. Many critics of the Obama administration expressed outrage about the inability of the State Department to protect its own diplomats. Critics of the State Department Obama administration claimed that it was over three weeks for the FBI to travel. We know that it was actually four weeks.
1:08:34
which made it more difficult to investigate, which was the whole purpose. And that the, let's see, the first militant to be arrested didn't happen until 2014. And it goes on to say, was the compound secure? Well, of course we know that it was not.
1:09:11
Under the part, I just wanted to read these couple of paragraphs under who was responsible. What is known is the militants arrived in trucks bearing the logo of Ansar al-Sharia, a group of Islamists who were working with the local government to provide security. The assailants were armed with grenades and assault weapons. And the U.S. eventually alleged that two Libyan branches
1:09:40
were involved in the attack now i don't know about you guys but i have a difficult believing and i'm not saying this um uh answer al uh sharia is not a bad group because it is a bad group but if you're going to show up to attack a u.s consulate um bringing your flags and bringing trucks that has your logo on it doesn't seem to be the way way to do that um but that's just me um
1:10:12
I do want to talk about that for just a second. That particular group has been involved in CIA operations and have been implicated in a couple of different articles.
1:10:37
And instead of going through all of those articles, I am going to, I found them archived. I'm going to put them over to Bridget for her to post. And I'm going to suggest since we're at 115 that you guys, if you want to do any more additional research into this, that you look at that because it is very interesting.
1:11:06
But I do want to get to one more real quick. There appears to be a link between Trump taking out Soleimani and these groups that killed these Americans. And I found it interesting.
1:11:37
that Soleimani appears to be part of an U.S.-supported, like through the Obama administration, element in Iran. And that there are ties between him and the forces that were being armed in...
1:12:09
Libya against Omar Gaddafi. And the gun running through Libya, through Benghazi specifically, was being done to equip this Gladio unit, for lack of a better word, to attack Omar Gaddafi's traditional army. And I don't know if there was an effort.
1:12:38
by these people at the compound to stop the flow of those arms, and that's why they got attacked. But this was clearly a conduit into the Gladio forces in Libya to attack Omar Gaddafi for regime change. That's unequivocal. There does seem to be ties between that element and...
1:13:08
Soleimani. So if my assumption of taking out Soleimani was in retribution to the taking of American lives at the Benghazi compound, that makes to me perfect sense to go back and then look at the left or the Obama administration's response to taking out Soleimani. They were not happy about it.
1:13:40
And that was almost like cutting the head off of a lot of the rogue elements, to include Syria, by the way, because this same network was supplying guns to Syria's rebels as well via the CIA to take Assad out. So you can kind of see how they were lining everything up to basically do what they did in South America with these rolling coups.
1:14:09
It would appear that someone at the Benghazi consulate either went rogue or became a problem, and that's the reason why they were taken out. That part is complete speculation on my part. But that, to me, makes a whole lot more sense than everything else.
1:14:36
Because at no time would an embassy ever rely on rogue elements of a terrorist organization to provide security unless they're actually wanting people to be taken care of. So I'm going to stop at that point. And let's see, did Bridget fall off, Cousin It? There she is. All right, I'm going to...
1:15:13
Get Bridget back up here. Yeah. Can you hear me okay? Yeah. She's got some serious storms going on. In her area. She's under a tornado watch. So she's going to be coming and going. Yeah. That's all the flood warnings that she was sending. Tornado warning. Yeah. We're actually in the path. But I don't think we're going to be in the direct line of path.
1:15:47
That's crazy. Okay. So what are y'all's thoughts on that? For those that were requesting mics, we're going to go ahead and open it up now. So sorry for the delay. Bridget, did you have any thoughts, Cousin It? Caught me with my mouth full. I always knew Benghazi was bad. But once again, it goes back to once we have.
1:16:26
reevaluate everything we've been told. And it's way worse than I thought it was. Yeah, I agree. I was floored. And again, I'm kind of jaded at this point and thinking that everything's messed up. But I was floored when I read that part about Jason Chaffetz saying that we weren't allowed to look at shit that's on Google Earth.
1:17:00
I was floored. Right. Again, I can't believe they have the audacity to say that we live in. I know we don't live in a democracy, but even in a democratic form of government, when they censor every freaking thing that we as taxpayers have a obligation, not a right. We have an obligation to know.
1:17:28
Prior to voting for these assholes. So every single thing that we should know to form an informed opinion is kept from us on purpose. Yeah. And you've got a freaking Guardian reporter walking through the shit 48 hours later and we're not allowed to see it. That just blows my mind. Go ahead, Mike.
1:18:09
Good afternoon, guys. Yeah, like I wasn't I was originally just listening. But Colonel, your your outrage at the particular just trying to suppress angles of or different sources of information in general is just ridiculous. And in my opinion, when it comes to like the intelligence kind of like operations and what we're dealing with, Operation Gladio and a lot of the DEI stuff we're dealing with today and particularly around some of the political.
1:18:35
nonsense of trying to convince the people, the average civilian or citizen to basically not believe what they're seeing with their own eyes. I think it's probably like what you kind of like ranted about is probably what I would think would be the genesis of a lot of these strategies of convincing the general public to only take in information from certain sources that they're told to take in information from.
1:19:03
Because the way I think about it is if you can convince those who are held to the highest esteem within your society, which tend to be the warriors and the soldiers and the fighters, makes it pretty easy to convince the rest of the population to be like, oh, it's from Google Earth. Yeah, that's not a reputable source or any nonsense like that. I don't know if you guys have any thoughts on that. Well, I think what you're trying to say is that they they try to discredit.
1:19:35
Our common sense and us making logical conclusions by some denouncing of sources, which, you know, especially on something like Google Earth, you know, anything that's worth.
1:20:01
looking at on google earth pretty much they have blurred anyway um and then to tell us the part that they don't blur um maybe by their own mistake oh yeah don't pay attention to that you're like really yeah it's it's kind of funny isn't it how like oh it's weird how we can conceptualize in our own minds but then to like speak on it just now is it's kind of like entertainingly difficult to get out yeah and so i think that's kind of the beauty of doing this is
1:20:33
putting words to what all of us had a suspicion of already, but we hadn't done the research and we didn't have a place to start to do the research. And that to me is the fundamental blessing of having stumbled across Operation Gladio because it gives us the skeleton and the glasses to reevaluate everything that we thought we knew about everything.
1:20:59
And when you go back and you look at all of that stuff with this new perspective, you see it in a completely different, more revealing light. And so you know immediately why they hid it from us. Well, and two other things. It lays the seeds for a foundation of relying on the Brandolini effect to defend their positions.
1:21:24
And it also just makes it a lot harder for us to argue our positions against the established narrative. Because like when we go to explain things like you and I just attempted to and we kind of stumbled over our own words and our own thoughts, it makes it hard for people to buy into it and to believe it because we sound like we're unsure of what we're talking about. Yeah. But you're stumbling because of the sheer audacity of the bullshit.
1:21:56
It is really hard to, especially after spending 30 years inside of the octopus, it's really hard to articulate just how freaking evil it is. And then, yeah, and then one last thing, and then you guys, I will take a step back. But the other thing, too, that came to mind while we were talking was the other thing that's providing resistance for all of us to get all this information out and to argue these points.
1:22:26
is that when we have like these when we sound like we're unsure because of the audacity like you mentioned colonel um we're dealing with a large population that was quote unquote educated by textbooks and powerpoint presentations instead of through critical thinking and figuring in the socratic method and figuring out the answers on our own so like we have a large population in western developed nations
1:22:49
that are used to or accustomed to believing that everything we know is absolute and that like sciences, philosophy, all this other stuff is just like ingrained in stone and absolute doctrine, which anybody who's delved into any sort of expertise around, like, say, for example, physiology and how the body works, like we understand maybe like five to 20% of what's actually going on on a daily basis.
1:23:18
And that's proven by things like nitric oxide. Our body's production of nitric oxide was discovered in 1994 and given a Nobel Peace Prize. So yeah, that's bore out that we know very little about the processes of our body and science in general. So it is not an exact science. You're absolutely right. Patriot, go ahead. Then we'll get to James. Hi.
1:23:47
So I saw the movie, I'm 13, sorry, 13 hours in probably. So I think it came out in 2016 and I saw it on video probably in 2019 or 2020.
1:24:25
I always knew something was wrong with that story. I'm kind of curious whether the producer changed anything about the movie. But I was just sick at what happened. So I think that planted a seed in.
1:25:11
my mind for waking up with the whole COVID thing and all that I've learned since then. And that's just my two cents. Thank you for letting me speak. Sure, absolutely. Interestingly enough, I met Chris
1:25:42
They call him Tonto, P-A-R-O-N-T-O. He came to my hometown as a guest speaker at an annual banquet that our county puts on to raise money for our canine units. And he gave a speech. I have his book. I've not watched the movie. I read his book, 13 Hours, and met him, had a chance to talk to him for a few minutes.
1:26:12
at the event because we had VIP tickets. And what an amazing guy. I actually DM'd him on X and asked him if he wouldn't mind coming into a space with us so that we could actually talk to him. I hope he responds because I would absolutely love that to happen. I would love for you guys to hear his story.
1:26:38
But he tells when he did his, so we had dinner and then he gave a speech. He says they requested three separate times for help. And it was not until the third time that another team that basically ignored protocol, if I recall exactly what he was saying. So they asked to leave.
1:27:06
where they were at at the CIA compound to go help the guys that were under attack. They asked three times, and it wasn't until they were told no the third time by the State Department that they left anyway and went and got those other guys. So, yeah, he has a very compelling story. Really cool guy. James, go ahead. Yeah, I was just curious about if you knew anything or had any. I'm not home, so I can't find.
1:27:36
what i have on it right now and i tried googling for it your entire discussion obviously i couldn't find it but i was curious if you have found anything or have anything with regards to the shell company that was uh shipping or moving precious artwork or like paintings or something that supposedly was being funded by the clinton foundation so i won't be able to find mine either but i know what you're talking about there was a if you're talking about the same thing i am
1:28:08
What I read there was a it basically had to do with money laundering and it was in both. Let's see, Benghazi and what's the other port in Lebanon? Libya? No, not Libya. Well, Benghazi. Yeah, Benghazi is in Libya. But in Lebanon, there was a port.
1:28:36
that had a big explosion there. Are you talking about the one in 2018? It was Beirut. Beirut. Okay. So both in Beirut and in Benghazi, in the ports, they have these entities that are storage facilities. And they're like state-of-the-art storage facilities. And they are kept in ports because they are considered international.
1:29:07
entities, like kind of like in the airport where you have the duty-free shops. So these ports and these storage facilities are built so that they're on what would be considered outside of the port authority. So they don't have to be, quote unquote, checked into the country to pay duty on or whatever. So there is part of what we would refer to as mafia.
1:29:36
this international syndicate that builds these facilities and they have their own people in charge of them. And there is like trillions of dollars of artwork that are stored in these locations and not checked into a country. So there's basically no record of them. They get checked out of a country.
1:29:59
once they're purchased, but they never get checked into a country. They are in these storage facilities. And like I said, these storage facilities are massive and they're state-of-the-art facilities with security, climate control, all of this crap. And the way I found out about it was when I was researching Safra, the guy that burned up in his penthouse in Monaco.
1:30:28
That was the guy behind the Armitage investment that was trying to buy up all the resources in Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union. Safra, who owns a bank in Switzerland, if I remember correctly, was part of this whole thing. And one of the guys that he did business with in Monaco went through, I mean, he was like a multi, like 10, 20 billionaire.
1:30:58
He went through a divorce and his wife in the divorce proceedings. And again, this is just a rabbit hole. I go down. It's just crazy shit. In the divorce paperwork talked about going into these facilities. This guy had multiple ones of these facilities and checking out the artwork that he bought. But because they were.
1:31:27
checked out of a country and never checked into another country. There was no documentation in her divorce to say that she could have anything because there was no record of him having it because he was using money that was laundered.
1:31:43
And to buying these paintings that are now in this never, never land of the storage facilities. But she talked about in the court documents, having went to one of them and knew that he had stuff in them. So I was like, are you kidding me? My emphasis there is on air quotes, artwork, air quotes, paintings.
1:32:13
There's totally more in these storage facilities than meets the eye, in my opinion. And there might be. But from my perspective, it's speculation. What I do know is there is actually art that has been bought or invested in using money that has been laundered through.
1:32:37
through this whole Operation Gladio network. And I just stumbled across in a completely different dig documentation of how that whole system worked. And I wouldn't doubt that those storage facilities has all kinds of quote unquote artwork. Jeff, go ahead. So sorry, Colonel. Do you hear me now? Yep. So then my question is that since Hillary Clinton,
1:33:20
was the Secretary of State, and this falls on top of her head as far as anything that failed in that area. With that being said, I consider her charges way more than anything that Donald Trump has ever been charged with that I can see. Will she ever be held responsible for any of that? And what's your opinion on that?
1:33:49
Everybody is going to be held responsible at some point. When that occurs, I have no idea. Obviously, our mission right now is to get him back in office so that that can actually happen. So, yeah, I don't know. I believe that the only way forward is accountability. So it has to happen. It's not even a question. Texas, go ahead. My last question. I'm so sorry, Colonel.
1:34:19
What is your opinion of J.D. Vance becoming the vice president? I'm just going to say that I support Trump. At this point, we don't. You can say all you want, but it's not going to matter. Was he number one, two or three on my list? No. But I support President Trump. And that's just this.
1:34:49
point, you know, this is like my whole life in the military. You get, there is a time for discussion and then there's a time when you salute smartly when the decision is made and you march forward as long as it's not illegal or immoral. And at this point, we salute smartly and we march forward. And I'm definitely going to do that. Texas, go ahead.
1:35:14
Yeah, about the art in the Clinton Foundation and containers, I heard somewhere along the line I read or somebody was talking about they would consider it live art so it didn't get audited or something. I don't know what you thought on that. I don't know anything about that. I've not come across anything like that.
1:35:42
I do know what she's talking about. That was coming out of talking about. I've just seen any evidence of it. Right. Yeah. It was about Saudi Arabia, though. Yeah. I just I don't have any evidence of it. So I don't want to talk about that in this forum because we're trying to keep this evidence based and factual.
1:36:08
When it comes to conclusions, like I did at the end of this presentation, where I can, based on the information that we've gathered in all of our research, if I'm going to make a...
1:36:23
an assumption or a conclusion that is not necessarily evidence-based. I will always make sure you guys know that that is my opinion based on the, you know, thousands of hours of research and reading that we've done. And I'm very careful to make sure that you guys understand that that is strictly my opinion because I don't want you going off for your own credibility.
1:36:47
to say something that, yeah, well, the Colonel said this, um, but that's the Colonel's opinion. And I want to make sure that you guys understand the difference between what the credible evidence suggests and what my opinion is. So, um, I have a lot of opinions about that. I just don't want to do them in this forum because I want to keep this strictly Operation Gladio. Sorry. Thank you, ma'am. Sure. Um, so. Terry, do you have a question?
1:37:23
If we have evidence for that, how do we safely provide this to you? I'm following you. You can DM it to me. Okay. DM me your email or however you want me to contact you. I just meant, I don't know if doing it over technology is the safest. Well, you're really limited, Jen, unless you want to put a stamp on it.
1:38:00
Yeah, and I'm not giving them my address either. Exactly. This is a very... I mean, what do you want to do? Talk in code? Do you want to talk in code? No, no, no, no. You guys are trying to use that solution. We'll keep it Operation Gladio. I'm just trying to figure out how to not get Epstein, so to speak. Don't use Signal.
1:38:31
I'm talking to my information. Yeah. Anyway. They all know where I'm at anyway. Right. Yeah. It's just like. Go ahead. Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt. I thought there was a gap. So I'm just trying to figure out the mechanism.
1:39:08
inside the the people and all of the people that were in the consulate that kept them there like what is that i understand it's like a psychological um soul thing but what is that can you talk about what you mean they were they were under fire
1:39:38
So where are they going to go? No, before, when they understood that they weren't getting help. Are you talking about why didn't they try to escape the compound? Well, they kept asking for more security, more security, and nothing was coming, and the dude was on the other roof taking photos. I mean, obviously they understood something was up.
1:40:09
Is this the annex or the consulate that you're talking about? She's talking about in the days and weeks ahead of time when they kept trying to get security. So let me, to the best of my ability, address this. So you have kind of initial, secondary, and tertiary security.
1:40:39
And there is a belief that, again, the entire thing's fucked up. I'm just going to say that up front. You never, ever purchase security off the local market. So everything about this tells you that this was a mission that was not to be ever known about.
1:41:09
until it blew up. All right. So in other words, if I'm the CIA and I'm on an official CIA mission, not running guns on a black covert operation, I would have all types of security from CIA procured like Blackwater firms for my operation. I would never.
1:41:38
buy security off of a local, like out of a local farmer's market, which is basically what they were doing. So this martyr brigade was basically a CIA procured, probably even CIA trained entity that they were using to do off the books, black weapons.
1:42:07
As a result of that, they had a backup security capability at the CIA annex. That's what that was for. Their tertiary backup would have been, and there were, a military expeditionary unit on call. The problem is that...
1:42:33
No one was going to launch that military third order security because that would have unequivocally documented with military personnel boots on the ground the illegal operation because none of that evidence would have been left behind had that military operation arrived. So you've got that secondary annex guy force that.
1:42:59
Tonto was part of, came, picked up the guys they could find and got the hell out of there. And they left, obviously, crap. But I think a lot of them assumed that most of the crap that they left was burnt up because of how badly shard, I don't know if you've seen any of the pictures of that building, was that they're just assuming everything got destroyed and they bring those people back to the annex.
1:43:27
The thing that bothers me the most is the second attack, not the first attack. There were a lot of people in that local area that knew that they were running guns to this group that was against Omar Gaddafi. And they were arming treasonous factions of Libya. And it would be perfectly logical.
1:43:57
to think that there are Libyan patriots that would want to disrupt that operation. Those are the types of things that you and I will never know about because those patriot operations would get labeled by the CIA and everybody that is going to filter our information.
1:44:22
as jihadist or islamist or whatever when in fact they are people that were trying to protect omar kadhafi because remember at this time omar kadhafi is the guy that's uniting africa he's the guy that's trying to create a gold back currency he's the guy that's the imminent threat to the international syndicate so he's the guy that brought water free water and education
1:44:50
Yeah, and free education to both men and women. To an audience that's like 95% ignorant or illiterate. So he was an existential threat to the CIA, to the international syndicate on behalf of the CIA. So the CIA's operation is to arm the militants.
1:45:19
that are opposing Omar Gaddafi and create the strategy of tension, the disruption, and eventually the overthrow of the Gaddafi administration. So there is all kinds of outside factors that could have played in the attack on
1:45:44
But you and I are never going to be told the truth about what their motivation is because it would basically expose the international syndicate to a large degree. I'm sorry. I just wanted to finish this one thought. What I find, and you're very good at the observation of what made those people stay there.
1:46:12
I do believe that the information that was made available to them was very controlled. And you don't think about, especially on a mission, the fact that you have the option, because quite frankly, nothing good would have happened to him had he come home not having accomplished the mission. So go ahead, Cousinet.
1:46:43
One of the big factors with Libya and Gaddafi as well, aside from the free water and all of the gold assets, wanting to go over to gold-backed currency for all of Africa, not just Libya, he nationalized the oil industry. So all of the citizens within Libya actually got a percentage of the oil sales.
1:47:12
The government only kept enough to keep the government going. And the rest of the money was invested in its country and in its citizens, like a profit sharing almost. And God knows the international syndicate can't have that. They want to make sure that they control that oil industry. So that had a huge, huge impact on Libya as well. Yeah.
1:47:43
It's almost like a death pack. When you sign on with these people and you participate in their network, you do what they ask you to do. We have no idea what information they held over his head to keep him there. You know, his family could have been threatened. It's not like they haven't done that a lot of times.
1:48:08
It's hard to talk about other people's motivation, but you are right in asking that question. Anybody else have any other? I have a question. Sure. Hey, Colonel, it's Billy Joe. Why don't. OK, I was just going to say, why doesn't Billy Joe go first? We haven't heard from her today. Thank you so much. I didn't mean to interrupt. Is this OK?
1:48:37
Yeah, go ahead. Okay. Well, Colonel, I don't want to sound like a single white female or anything, but you sound like you're in a little bit of pain and you're more stressed than usual. I just hope you're okay. You're doing okay. And I just want to tell you how much that we appreciate and I appreciate all the hard work you do. And I know that you don't know us, but you've become an important part of my life the last, you know, few weeks, month, you know, delving into this Gladius stuff. And so I worry about you because you work so hard.
1:49:07
I know we're all upset about Trump, but your voice sounds like you're stressed today. So I just wanted to tell you, I hope you're all right. I'm perfectly fine. And you're right. There are some parts of Operation Gladio that bug me more than others. The fact that I've met Tonto and that this had to do, I know some of the people that were on that military go team that were not allowed to go personally.
1:49:35
So this story has a lot more meaning to me than most people. And I just find every aspect of it to include the Trey Gowdy cover up of it an insult to my intelligence. And again, I just hate these people. I really do. Yeah, I can go through most of this stuff in a very logical.
1:50:05
manner as far as presenting the evidence and letting you guys form your own conclusions. But there are some parts of this, especially that touch on the military people that I was part of, that hits me harder. And I appreciate the fact that you detected that. It does indicate to me exactly kind of the
1:50:31
close knit community that we've developed here. And basically is just, it warms my heart. Thank you, Billy Joe, for saying that. You're welcome. And, you know, it's tough on, I'm sure I'm not the only one that my friends and family, you know, if I say they think I'm crazy or I've gone off the deep end because I went from being a perfectly normal liberal Democrat to now I'm a conspiracy theorist. Right. And.
1:50:59
You know, it's difficult because, you know, I feel this weight that to know the truth, to understand what's really been going on. And I feel personally offended, you know, that they just lied and lied and lied to us and that they expect us to continue to take it and take it. Take it just makes me so mad. And I think that's part of the reason we have this community, because who the hell else can we talk to about this stuff? I try to talk to other people and I get some bites sometimes, you know, but.
1:51:26
It's on my mind a lot. People just float through life and they just don't realize the absolute existential crisis that we're dealing with today. It's exciting, scary, sad. I hope that me knowing a little bit of this and the rest of us, there may be an opportunity for it to matter.
1:51:47
Well, I think it already matters and you just made it matter. It is people like you, the reason why we do this. And you guys make it matter for me. Billy Joe, go ahead and cousin it. Well, you're a hero. Thank you. Well, no, I just wanted. I find it very helpful when anything with these people that don't get it. I always pose it in the form of a question.
1:52:20
Like, do you really think that so-and-so would do such and such? Do you really think the pharmaceutical industry, for example, would actually keep us healthy when there's more money to be made otherwise? So it does help because it forces the other person to actually think about it.
1:52:47
Rather than just turn around and say, oh, well, you're just a tinfoil hat wearing yada yada, right? Yes. Try it that way and see if the response changes. I mean, at this point, it's considered a battlefield and not everyone is going to survive this battlefield. Well, I think that's a big part of it. If you know what's coming.
1:53:15
and you don't panic, then you have a big chance of making it through. You know, never panic. Exactly. And if you recognize what happened in history, you can directly associate it to what's going on today. And other people are noticing it. You're banning, Cousinette. Well, there's a big surprise. Okay, that was better. Verizon Nazis.
1:53:47
I swear. All right. Let's go to RIP. RIP? RIP, you have to hit the bottom left-hand microphone that's red. Unmute yourself. I got nothing. All right. Well, RIP, I don't know if you know where the mic button is, or I don't know if you're having problems.
1:54:44
Bridget, can you put him down and then bring him back up or her, whichever it is? I'll take care of it. I think Bridget's tied up at the moment. Can I just intersect with something really quick while there's a gap? Is that okay? Sure. If it has something to do with Operation Gladio. Well, it just has to do with...
1:55:11
Chelsea Manning, Bradley Manning. So I just, um, want to get your take on how you think it's the same like concept of like how, um, these, these people just stayed there. How do you think, um, Chelsea Manning, Bradley Manning, um, how do you think they like jumped that gap?
1:55:41
of, you know, I'm not going to stand by this. How do you think that was possible? Because it's so impossible for so many. What's your take on that? I'm not sure I understand your question. Are you asking me why he became a whistleblower or why he sold classified information and gave that out? Yeah.
1:56:12
Well, there's controversy whether it was classified. No, there's no controversy that it was classified. No, all of it wasn't classified. Like, for instance, the collateral murder wasn't. Carrie, the information that he provided was classified information. You can ask me what the moral question is.
1:56:40
which I think is what you're alluding to, was he morally correct in doing that or not? You cannot say that it wasn't classified information because it was. I know what the gunship, I know how secure, I was at U.S. Central Command, all of that gunship footage is classified. So you can't make the argument that it's not. I know specifically that it is, and I know at what level it's classified.
1:57:11
What I believe, Carrie, and it's a very valid question, is trying to ask is whether or not when you're presented with a moral dilemma of information inside of this system, what you do with it. Having been presented with a not similar, I did not ever see any gunship footage of people being ordered to murder civilians.
1:57:40
But I was presented with multiple, over a 30-year span of time, illegal, immoral circumstances that I had to make a decision on what I was going to do for myself and the people within my command. So when you are faced with that, there are processes like the IG and like the official whistleblower program.
1:58:11
that you are required to utilize. If at any step in that process, you do not get satisfactory results, you, after having exhausted all of that official capacity, you would feel compelled morally to take that to the American people in some form or fashion.
1:58:42
Having known that he did not use that actual system is my only beef in the information being eventually known to all of us. I'm not going to have a dual standard where I just was complaining about the fact that Jason Chaffetz is trying to keep information from the American public and then turn around and go, oh, well, because the military did it, you're not ever allowed to see that. That's garbage.
1:59:10
But there is a process, a legal process, for those of us who take an oath, and he did, you have to abide by that oath. And there are no exceptions to that. You have a chain of command, you have an IG, and you have a senator to take whistleblower protection with. That's the process. Use the fucking process. Once you use that process, hire an attorney and release the shit.
1:59:40
if that's the way you feel like you need to do. Go ahead, R.I.P. Good afternoon, Colonel. It's always a pleasure to see you. I just happened to go through some spaces and I saw you sent me a notification that you were opening your space. I know I'm kind of coming in on the tail end of this, but I saw that word Benghazi and that got my attention. You know,
2:00:13
Is it fair to say that one of the most frustrating things for you, someone who served in our military, that served our country, is it fair to say that probably the most frustrating thing for you is that, you know, our own federal government. You broke up there for a minute already. Let me see if I can get to a better spot. How about now? Can you hear me better? Yeah, I can hear you now.
2:00:44
Okay. I was just asking the question that, you know, it's the most frustrating thing for you is that, you know, would you deserve to know it's deep embedded in a lot of this stuff that went on over there in Libya and Benghazi. I mean, because we got a Secretary of State here, Hillary Clinton, not to mention Susan Rice, that, I mean, because they deny people.
2:01:20
the aid to, you know, in order to defend themselves. That's the reason that we lost four Americans over there, isn't it? Yes, it is. And so, I know it's got to be very frustrating for you or anybody else that has served. You've got to get on us, RIP. That's okay. It's going to be very frustrating for me to serve in the military, knowing that our own federal government is involved with all of it.
2:02:11
It is very frustrating. Yeah, it is very frustrating. I take my most cautious approach to people who have served. I have been invited into many community events where I know there is a preponderance of military veterans because the sacrifice that all of us made
2:02:44
whether or not you shed blood or not. You spent birthdays away from family. You spent years away from your extended family. We all made different levels of sacrifice, but sacrifice nonetheless. And, you know, the long deployments that you go on, they take a mental toll on you. And those people,
2:03:13
will always be cherished by all of us Americans, regardless of the mission that they were on. And you do have to use a lot of caution when you are exposing them to the truth about what actually happened and why they were there. And probably just as off the top of my head,
2:03:42
I had a conversation about six months ago with one of the guys that was actually deployed from South Com to Honduras who thought that Nicaragua had been infested with actual communists and that the Contras was the good guys and that he was training good guys to go in and kill communists.
2:04:08
When I was able to provide for him the information that exactly the opposite was true and who these people were, not only on the Sandinista side, which happened to be the patriots trying to take their country back from the oligarchs, but the fact that the Contras were, in fact, the fascists, you could just watch the color drain out of his face.
2:04:38
realizing the weight of what I was telling him. And what I made very, what I was very cautious to say to him was that what we have to do is channel that righteous indignation and that anger.
2:05:01
And the rage into positive political efforts in order to ensure that our government is not ran by those people anymore. And those people have no ability to export a U.S.-branded, NATO-branded terrorism in order to enrich these assholes and enslave us.
2:05:31
And if you can't make that transition and use that anger for that reason, it'll eat you up. And then you have, you know, nightmares at night. You will have the PTSD all over again. And and that is like my biggest caution in talking about Operation Gladio is its effect on our veterans, because.
2:05:56
I walk through this every single dig I do. I go through the whole stages of, you know, lividness and indignation that they put us in harm's way because that's the intimate, that's the ultimate thing. So I just, and I want to, I'll end with this part. These assholes have endangered every single one of us on every single mission we've ever went on.
2:06:26
We are being put out there to guard poppy fields. We are being put out there to face. It would be the same as let's just use an example here in the United States. If the people of South Dakota, whose farmland is being bought up by the Chinese, were to take up arms when their government failed them to drive out the Chinese communist in.
2:06:57
South Dakota and take their farmland back. Would anybody feel any qualms about that? You can argue the legality or all that other crap, okay? But let's just say that that was the case, that our government had failed so completely that they had allowed a foreign country to come in and begin buying up our farmland, and that we as citizens of the United States took matters into our own hands.
2:07:24
Now, I can tell you exactly that that's what happened in Nicaragua. The United Fruit had came in there. The Sandinistas had basically.
2:07:36
retaken their farmland to give it back to the people whose previous government had sold them out. They've made illegitimate deals with United Fruit in order to confiscate these people's land. It was rightfully those people's, not unlike the immoral banking system here that has confiscated people's family farms. It's been in their families for hundreds of years.
2:08:01
There is a lot of analogies there. And so these Sandinista people were trying to take their government back from a CIA installed dictator who was basically the butt boy of United Fruit. And not only were they fighting the communist installed CIA government, fascist, communist is the wrong word. But then the CIA.
2:08:30
set up all of these terrorist training camps surrounding the entire country. They were in Costa Rica. They were in Guatemala. They were in El Salvador. They were in Honduras and just launched holy hell on these people that just wanted to freaking live their life and not be paid $87 a year by a U.S. oligarch. And so.
2:08:57
If you look at it in its totality, you can't fault those people on the ground fighting just like you wouldn't fault the people who you can't fault the Indians. We basically did that to the Indians and they fought us back. So, again, this has been done in a large perspective all over the world. The problem that I have with all of it is.
2:09:27
that we were lied to. Those of us whose boots on the ground that were down there teaching these people how to kill their fellow citizens, we were lied to. It isn't like the farm land. I mean, we know exactly what's happened there, unless the government's lying to us, telling us it's the Chinese, when in fact it's not the Chinese at all. It's probably them. But you understand my point. Bill Gates.
2:09:55
Yeah, but you understand my point. Those of us in the military, when we put our boots on, we got our duffel bag and we got on an airplane to go fight communists.
2:10:06
were lied to because we never fought communists. We were fighting people who were trying to take their country back. And that's a devastating blow to those of us who not only made our sacrifice and missed all of our kids' birthdays as a result of these deployments, then to find out that we were on the wrong side of history is devastating. Go ahead, RIP. I'll let you respond. And see, that's the part that I'm talking about. When you listen to the colonel sit there and talk about this, you can hear.
2:10:38
the the the anger and the frustration that she is feeling now knowing that uh she felt like she was more than likely used for for the wrong reasons and she has every right to feel that way and as far as you know her you know people that have served and played part in that
2:11:05
You know, this is stuff that they got to live with the rest of their lives. And I want to tell you that we appreciate you bringing this to the forefront. But not only you just bring it, you bring it with evidence and receipts because showing that we would lie to. And that's why I've always said I've always given Hillary the name Killer Hillary, because.
2:11:32
These people, our own federal government, look at what they're doing to us in our own country, let alone what they're doing globally. And so I really, really appreciate you and Colonel Manners. And these are the type of people that we need to be electing because these people, they won't lie to us. They will give us.
2:11:56
the information that we need and the truth. And that's what we're looking for. We're looking for the truth. These people will continue to lie to cover up for each other. And with the CIA, the central intelligence, they are involved in this so deep. And I just thank you for bringing this to the forefront. I really do. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate it. Let's see. Lone Traveler, go ahead.
2:12:24
This is going to be our last one, guys. We've been at it a little over two hours. Go ahead, Lone Traveler. Okay, thank you so much. U.S. Army has been, you know, had 600-ish conflict all over the world. A lot of us know that the globalists using the U.S. troops to do their bid. We know that Pat Tillman was killed because he was trying to tell the truth.
2:12:54
And I also know that Lieutenant Aaron Watada refused Iraq deployment and they almost sent him to the martial court. So there's a lot of things going on. I know there's a lot of great people in the army doing all the fighting for the people. But it still seems to me that a lot of people in the army, they're not really.
2:13:23
fighting for America, but just fighting for the globalists for all this time. So I'm wondering how many people in the army that will truly stand up in the end, fight for this country instead of doing the work for the globalists. Do you have any percentage you can share? You kind of broke up. How many people will stand up and do what?
2:13:48
What's the percentage of people do you think that will, you know, when they know all the truth, will stand up for this country and stop doing the work for the globalists? So I'm still in contact with much less than before because a lot of my friends have also retired. But I still know quite a few people that are still on active duty that.
2:14:20
Very much know what's going on. It is their hope that they all committed at the new 2020 was stolen. They committed to ride out and they all did the we're not taking the shot stuff. A lot of them had received a tremendous amount of pressure. A couple of them did actually take the shot. But.
2:14:47
They had committed because they have like 16, 17 years in the military to ride it until this election coming up. Even ones who have not made it to 20 years, if they try to steal this election and people just walk away like they did last time and pretend like nothing ever happened, they won't stay.
2:15:11
They can't stay. And I think there's there'll be a whole lot of soul searching done at that point. But I can unequivocally say that I think it's over 50 percent. I would be stupid to say that I think there's not a lot of globalists supporting people.
2:15:37
And I think there's a wedge. So I think the people that have been recruited in the last few years are less likely to be the big defenders. And I think the people at the very top, I would tell you less than 10 percent of the general officers are good. And I you don't know how much it pains me to say that because you don't get to be a three and four star general if you're.
2:16:06
motivation is the people and the mission as opposed to kissing somebody's ass. The worst thing that ever happened to the military was the transition into the Department of Defense from the War Department. A War Department has a specific mission to go fight a war. A Defense Department can be used for a globalist tool under the defending national security bullshit and
2:16:35
Putting the War Department, which was always ran by a four-star general directly for the president, who was the combatant commander, is a lot better than having it under a bunch of civilians that don't know their head from the hole in the ground and are corrupt and just rotate in between the military-industrial complex. It's the stupidest thing I have ever heard of in light of what we all know now. It's dumb.
2:17:04
I can tell you firsthand, spending four years at the Pentagon, watching these hapless civilians, the ones that were nominated that you never saw were hideous. Usually only through a bunch of mid-level officers lobbying their congressional representatives were they able to derail some of the appointments.
2:17:30
of the most hideous, incompetent people that you've ever seen in your entire life to be placed in the Defense Department. So I was a part of a couple of those, one of which was a Florida representative that basically was just criminal, unbelievably incompetent. And the machinations during the Clinton administration to get him confirmed.
2:17:57
They were basically, not basically, I sat in a room while the civilian assistant secretary for the Air Force was telling the general officer that I worked for to lie to Congress. I witnessed it firsthand. So I understand the pressure that general officers are under. I understand the, I saw it firsthand. I understand the pressure and the criminality of the political appointees.
2:18:27
Does that mean every single one of them is like that? No. But there are more corrupt three and four star generals than there are good guys. I'll just say that. That's my experience. And I also, you guys have possibly heard me. None of the new people have. I worked for a guy when he was a one star general directly as his executive officer.
2:18:53
That guy eventually got promoted to a three-star general. And when he assumed the command of a particular organization, he called me up and asked me to come be a commander of a new organization that they were standing up. And standing up a new military organization is a big deal.
2:19:16
for posterity reasons, being the first commander. I mean, it is a big deal. Plus all of the paperwork, you have to have the emblems, the symbols, all of that, your patches, everything. It's just, it's a big pain in the ass. Just ask me, I know. But when I worked for him the second time, once he had pinned on three star, he was not the same guy. I loved this guy as a one star. I worked for him at the Pentagon.
2:19:47
Unbelievable, honorable family man. Go out of his way. Let me just tell you how great he was. All of the Arlington Memorial Services, the burying of the dead in Arlington, they require a horse-drawn carriage out to the gravesite. It's a big deal. It's a ceremony.
2:20:15
while he was a one star at the Pentagon. So as an additional duty, all of the one and two star generals can volunteer to be basically the masters of ceremony. You walk in front of the horse-drawn carriage, you perform the service, blah, blah, blah. So he had flown in Vietnam and he was very committed to the repatriation. And so he had told the army that does the coordination of the ceremonial
2:20:45
proceedings that any repatriation that comes back from Vietnam, that if he is in Washington, D.C., he will do that ceremony. And he did. And I had to juggle his calendar constantly because they were calling and not all of them because of logistics and stuff like that were always a long notice. But anyway, he just would drop everything to go do that. And what a wonderful person.
2:21:14
The guy that replaced him, who I was also the executive officer for, was scared to death of horses. And he said, get me out of every single one of them. So that's just kind of the difference between them. And that.
2:21:29
same general that went out of his way to do service-related things like that for people. By the time he had went through this process, God knows what it was, and I corresponded with him. I text messaged him. He had my personal phone number.
2:21:46
And through the rest of the time, I worked a project with him right after 9-11, where we got reserve pilots into CENTCOM on active duty orders so they could pay their house payments because they were all airline furloughed pilots, blah, blah, blah. So I had stayed in contact with him over the course of him being a two star. But I'm telling you what, when he became a three star, he was a completely different guy.
2:22:10
He asked me twice to do things that was both illegal and immoral, which I refused to do. And it created a lot of, and he, by the way, just so that I'll finish the story, he was one of the general officers that signed that letter against Trump. And when he went to his A-10 reunion, I have a friend of one of the A-10 drivers.
2:22:37
that was at that reunion within the last few years, every single one of them turned their back on him and would not talk to him at all. They were so disgusted with him. And that's a big deal because, you know, most of those guys will retire as a major or lieutenant colonel or a colonel and they were having nothing to do with him. So he made his bed and he will forever lay in it. But that's what the system does to people.
2:23:08
Um, and, um, it's, you know, and I told people every time I went and talked to enlisted, um, uh, professional military education classes that you come into the military with two things, your name and your integrity. And those are the two things that are most critical that you leave the military with. Um, and I was able to leave the military with both of them, but I also had a lot of bruises.
2:23:35
along the way, because it is not easy to leave with both of those intact. So, but it's important that you do. And for those of the people that are out there that are fellow veterans, we're all in this together. And RIP, I would say to you, I also are equally
2:23:59
indignant of the people like your parents and my parents who had their tax dollars stolen to support all of this bullshit. Because that generation was lied to and cheated in a way that isn't even, it's almost so big.
2:24:22
The propaganda, the whole terrorizing the children of making them crawl under their desks as if there was a nuclear explosion, only to brainwash us to convince us that they could do things like they did in Nicaragua because they could call those people communists because they had brainwashed all of us growing up. And the just everything about it, they stole those people's. Colonel, I don't know if anybody can hear you.
2:25:27
I can't. There I am. Yeah, Colonel. Did he turn the RV on again? No, no. I do need to mention that, though, for everybody that's on Rumble. I am so sorry. Yesterday, the signal got dropped. My husband came out and turned the RV on and dropped my internet because it switched over to shore power. If you joined us late, I think I said that at the beginning. But anyway.
2:25:56
I don't know. My whole phone screen just went blank. The whole X thing crashed on my phone. Maybe your husband is working for CIA. I don't know. Yeah, maybe. I don't think so. That's funny. I see you, Alberto. We're way over time. I'm going to give you a mic for just like five seconds, but then we've got to go.
2:26:36
If I may interject real quickly, thank you so much, Colonel, for your honest and very telling story. And thank you from the bottom of my heart. Sure. Sure, absolutely. Cousin Ed, I can't give him a mic. Alberto? I do not even see him. So I think X is saying it. I don't even know who I am.
2:27:05
I can't help you. Yeah, he just disappeared. He just disappeared. So we're good. All right. So we will be back here tomorrow at noon. Hope to see all of you guys here. Thank you for joining us. Thanks, everybody on Rumble. I'm going to stay on Rumble for a second and kind of look through the comments over there. Appreciate you guys being here. See you tomorrow.
