0:00 Again, it's already kicking me out of my own space. This is just crazy. It's getting ridiculous. I need to wait until I get Bridget in here. Hopefully she'll be along in just a minute. Let me text her real quick. So finally, for once, I get to text her. She's always reminding me the other way around. Gotta love that.

0:41 Um, okay. And I, um, I don't, hold on. She can't find it. Let's see if I can shoot it to her on the messages. There we go. So she should be in here. There she is. And there's SR 71. All right. Let's get them up here and then we can start. All right. Um, okay.

1:52 I wanted to spend, you guys, I know most of you probably have seen or saw the post that I made on the National Endowment for Democracy, but it really needs to be further explored a little bit because it is a significant part.

2:22 of Operation Gladio. And most people don't understand how critical and how big of a role that it has had. So it, again, we just kind of need to go through it. So I'm going to start by illustrating a couple of different or kind of highlighting a couple of different points.

2:58 The National Endowment for Democracy was created and paid for by our tax dollars. We are funding it. And I want to kind of foot stomp that for a couple of seconds, because in order for us to be funding it, it has to be appropriated and authorized in legislation every year. Okay?

3:30 So that's kind of the first piece of this is that at some point, someone thought that it was a great idea to do that. So if you go back and you look at when it was done, it was done in the early 1980s. And again, this is another noose around the neck.

4:00 of the Ronald Reagan, Vice President George Bush administration. Because the National Endowment for Democracy was not created by itself. It was created with a whole bunch of things. That piece of legislation was crazy. And it was completely acknowledged up front that it was...

4:30 basically taking over much of what the CIA had done in covert activities to include regime change up to that point. So everybody was very aware of, at the time, what the National Endowment for Democracy was going to be used for. Now, it actually makes sense if you think about it, because...

5:01 If you go back and you look at the pattern that we've established for Operation Gladio, what is the impetus in order to do a coup in a particular country? You have to first label it an enemy of the state. And that was generally done by labeling it a communist entity. Not all the time, but 99% of the time.

5:29 they chose to use, especially during the Cold War, it was convenient. Let's just label them a communist, even though we've established unequivocally that they weren't necessarily communist at the time. So that's critical. And in doing that, then you had to muster the forces to melt the regime change slash coup within that country. And generally they partnered or were

5:59 It was all instigated by members of the international syndicate, meaning multinational corporations. So if the whole propaganda campaign that you're running inside the United States, by labeling somebody a communist, then what's step two? Well, you have to make the case that you're implementing democracy, right?

6:28 So we're first going to say that it's a communist leaning, left leaning, whatever term they want to put on it. So I've labeled it. Now I'm going to attack it. And then once I attack it, I have to make the case that I'm doing it for democracy. And hopefully as I walk through this, you are going to see the exact same thing happening inside the United States right now.

6:58 They labeled Donald Trump and everything that they do is under the justification that they're saving democracy, despite the fact that we don't have a democracy. I would argue we don't have we haven't had a republic in a long time either, but we don't have a democracy. I don't want a democracy defended in the United States because we're not a democracy. But this has been a tried and true propaganda psyops that has been ran.

7:27 for the last 70 years. And like I said, for the preponderance of those 70 years, it was done inside the CIA, exclusively to the CIA. But because of the moving out of the thousand plus, when it was all said and done, CIA agents outside of the CIA, they had to have places.

7:56 In order to employ these people to continue doing the same mission. So it's not coincidental that the National Endowment for Democracy was set up at the beginning of the Reagan administration because it gave homes to many of the CIA people. And I would also ask you guys to keep this floating around in the back of your mind, because, again, this is a.

8:25 what I want to call it, a hypothesis that I have now formed in that there appears to be, Jimmy Carter was not a good president, okay? And I don't mean that from the perspective of the oil and all of that and high inflation, all that. I'm not talking about that.

8:51 I'm grading them only from an Operation Gladio perspective. So you could argue the fact that he, you know, gutted the CIA, that there there was something redeeming about him. I've also told you guys that he made foreign aid dependent on human rights and he did cut off funding to the Contras. And so as you start down that path of thinking, you know, maybe he wasn't as bad as he was pretended to be.

9:20 And you can make an argument in some of those veins. But we also know because of our revealing of the BCCI scandal that the BCCI owned the mortgages to Jimmy Carter's family empire farm, peanut farm industry, whatever. So that you can make an argument that he was blackmailed into doing what he did. I'm just pointing out some kind of.

9:51 options there as to. But the point that I want to make about the National Endowment for Democracy as it relates to the Reagan administration is, did the firing of the CIA officers provide the ability to create what I refer to and many authors refer to as the enterprise?

10:20 a private CIA that operated outside of the CIA. Ma'am? Yes. I don't mean to interrupt. Apparently, your sound is coming and going. Okay. Is it to you? It is not to me, but there's apparently several people that are having some issues. Okay.

10:53 The audio is currently cutting out really bad. I don't know. What I wanted to also ask for is I'll drop down and if you don't mind, bring some frog up and maybe we can figure out how to reset the space or whatever it needs to be done. Okay. Where's the microphone? I wanted to check the settings of that.

11:23 I did the swipe down where, which one of those little icons was it? Let's see. We get off that. It should say like X controls or something like that. Okay. I don't see it. Oh, up there at the very top. I see it. Um, it says let's do voice isolated. Okay. It had reset to standard. So. Okay. All right. So I will take you down.

12:08 And I'm going to move Trump frog over. OK. All right. So we'll try this and see if this doesn't work a little bit better. So basically, the National Endowment for Democracy was set up early in the Reagan administration. It was acknowledged publicly at the time that it was going to take over much of the activities that had been done covertly in the CIA.

12:40 As a result of all of that, okay, sounds good. As a result of all of that, you have, I don't think we can look at administrations since we know that they're all selected as them being separate and on opposing forces, like we talked about yesterday. It's the same, it's two different wings of the same bird.

13:12 You have the Jimmy Carter kind of setting this whole thing up by moving over a thousand CIA agents. Now, in amongst many books that I have read, it says that the majority of those people never went anywhere. They became members of what was referred to as the Enterprise. And the Enterprise were a bunch of fake companies, fake banks and all this stuff that was set up. 1870s.

13:46 And into the 80s, in order for them to operate out of doing the same thing for the CIA that they had always done, but not internal to the CIA. So now it looks like we have some reined in people on the CIA. But what was not seen is where they all went. Like if you could do one of those tracking devices, you could see where they all ended up.

14:14 The National Endowment for Democracy is one of the places they ended up. And they were basically still engaged in coups. They were engaged in regime change. And we saw that throughout the 1980s with Angola and Nicaragua and El Salvador, blah, blah, blah. So they're still orchestrating all of this stuff. And as a matter of fact, some of them actually went into the National Security Council.

14:42 And you have Donald Gregg, who was actually working directly as the national security advisor for Vice President Bush on his staff. He's the guy that ran Felix Rodriguez. So all of these people ended up in these kind of nebulous, which people kind of overarchingly call the Enterprise or Danny Costolero called the Octopus. That's where they all ended up. One of those locations.

15:10 was the National Endowment for Democracy. And you can tell, even in the wiki version of this, if you just pull that up, it says that their stated aim was advancing, quote unquote, democracy by promoting political and economic institutions, such as political groups, business groups, trade unions, and free markets. So let me rephrase that.

15:37 They were going to create student groups that are agitators. They were going to use international pressure to create associations that put pressure on countries to privatize their industries so they could be bought out by the international syndicate. And as far as trade unions, yeah, that's not allowed. Because as soon as anybody...

16:03 at least not allowed in the sense of an actual trade union. The only unions that were allowed were ones that the AFL-CIO went into these countries and set up themselves because they are all controlled by the international syndicate. No country was allowed to create trade unions on their own because that was called being a communist. That's what happened in Nicaragua and Chile and all of those other places. So is it still cutting out, Bridget?

16:38 No, it's going. Okay. So, guys, give me a thumbs up if it's cutting out for you. I'm really like at my last nerve on how these things are being messed up. I am so sorry. And I got to actually hear it. As a listener, they're kidding about three words and then a long blank spot and then three words and a long blank spot.

17:08 OK, so hold on just one second. I'll take a second. Don't do any emojis yet. You guys do a thumbs up emoji if you are hearing me perfectly fine. Do a thumbs down if you're hearing me not perfectly fine. All right. So most people, it looks like, are hearing me fine. So, yeah. All right. So I'm going to keep going. I apologize. Oh, no. Now we're getting thumbs down. OK.

17:46 I'll go out and come back in. I don't know what to say. We are so under attack here. But I guess that's – anyway, I'll be right back. All right, I'm back. So let me know, listeners, thumbs up or thumbs down. Is it better for you guys? There's an update. They updated 21 hours ago. So if you didn't update the app, you're going to have problems hearing. Yeah, I just did.

18:22 That's what took me so long. So let me know if you guys are having any more problems. Those of you that are in the listener category, Bridget said it's better. All right. All right. Oh, my gosh. This is so frustrating. So let's try this again. National Endowment for Democracy.

18:49 basically is an offshoot of the CIA. It was set up in the early part of the Reagan administration in order to house a bunch of the fired CIA people under Carter, along with many other fake companies, NGOs, blah, blah, blah. So I wanted to take just a second to look at some of the people that were part of the original.

19:19 And this is, you know, I saw several of you guys' comments and you had the exact same comment that I did. Congressionally funded, but private. So how do you have a congressionally funded, which is not congressionally funded? It's they're not funding it. We are. OK, so we are funding a private entity that's going around the world instigating regime change and overthrows and coups. All right.

19:49 So the first guy that was part of its creation is a guy by the name of Carl Gershman, G-E-R-S-H-M-A-N. Again, this was done during the beginning of the Reagan administration. So, and its purpose was doing things that the CIA used to do covertly out in the open.

20:18 under the quote-unquote guise of democracy. So while he served as president, the National Endowment for Democracy's first-year budget through Congress, now it was started a little bit before that, but its actual first approved appropriated budget was $18 million in 1984. And it had grown to $300 million.

20:47 at the end of the Trump administration. So it had been busy doing democracy stuff in over 100 countries. So it has been very, very busy. It also says Gertman was a senior counselor to the U.S. ambassador at the U.N., Jean Kirkpatrick, and he also served as

21:20 a UN Security Council rep for the Reagan administration. And if you don't know anything about the, excuse me, Freedom House, the Freedom House is another one of those quote unquote think tanks that was founded in the early part of the 1940s. This guy was part of it too. And it served.

21:50 as a echo chamber for the State Department. Kind of anything the State Department wanted to do, it handed money to the Freedom House for them to write a report telling the State Department that it was a great thing to do. So it was just literally an echo chamber and was primarily DNC kind of affiliated for the most part.

22:18 So the fact that this guy was part of it as well is very telling. He was also the executive director of an entity called Social Democrats USA. And it it has the hand fisted with like a flame coming out of it like it's carrying a torch. Definitely aligned with the AFL-CIO.

22:46 kind of Democrat Party agenda. It did a lot with the Teachers Association. Democrat Socialist of America was the predecessor of this. So again, this is all the same entities working together. He graduated from Yale. He came from, I'm trying to see who his parents were, if it tells us.

23:17 No. Let's see. What else? Okay. So he served on the Governing Council of the American Jewish Committee, which comes up a lot when you're dealing with the leadership of the Democrat Party. And it also says that he was the national leader of the Young People's Socialist League.

23:43 That comes up a lot as well when it came to the rabble-rousers back in the weather underground days. So it says, under the Young People's Socialist League, he authored a 13-page paper that called for the Castro regime in Cuba to stop funding guerrilla movements. I'm sorry, what?

24:13 It was the guerrilla movements the CIA was funding that was trying to overthrow Castro, not the other way around. But see, this is exactly what I was telling you. So they write these paper accusing Castro of doing what they, in fact, were doing because during this time is when.

24:33 The United States were funding the guerrillas in Central America and South America. We were also funding them in Angola and in the Congo and all over the African continent. So they pay these people good money to author a report that says, no, no, no, the U.S. government's not doing that. All of their enemies are doing that. So then they can continue the perpetual.

25:03 regime change coup agenda against those particular leaders. So anything that you look at in relationship to these people, whatever they are saying is exactly what they were doing. Okay, so the other guy that was his partner in crime in setting up the initial National Endowment for Democracy was Alan Weinstein.

25:32 That's an interesting name. Also from New York. And oh, look at that. Also from Yale. So, you know, one big club. He also served just prior to setting up the National Endowment for Democracy. He was with UNESCO. Oh, my God. Who would have ever guessed that? And of course, we've talked to you guys about UNESCO.

26:03 being in bed with the World Wildlife Fund in order to do the kind of yin and yang and taking over natural resources in the UNESCO designating these heritage sites and then them setting up park rangers and people with guns in order to keep all the indigenous people out. So it says in 1985, he went on to found

26:30 The Center for Democracy, where he served as president until it merged with the International Foundation for Electoral Systems. Now, that's very interesting because this one is the one that is the International Foundation for Electoral System is the one that goes around trying to deconstruct people's current electoral systems and rebuild it so that they can screw with it.

27:01 This is the same guy. I'm sorry. What was Weinstein's first name? Weinstein's first name is Allen. A-L-L-E-N. Thank you. And let's see. Let me get my place back here. Okay. At the request of Senators Lugar and Pell of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

27:28 The Center for Democracy organized a quote-unquote bipartisan group of election lawyers to oversee the preparation for the 1986 elections in the Philippines. Now, that's very interesting because that's at the same time that they're messing with the Philippine election. And then it says that he goes on and, oh gosh, look, he's in El Salvador coup, Nicaragua coup.

27:57 Panama coup and in the immediate aftermath of Russia trying to fix whatever system they're going to implement after the fall of the Soviet Union. So any idea what this guy's up to? None whatsoever. And of course, Luger is the granddaddy of all the bioweapons labs. As a matter of fact, the Ukraine one and Georgia one has his name on the outside of the building.

28:25 Just a little background on the National Endowment for Democracy. OK, so those are the people that this bipartisan group, both of which are very left wing. So I don't know what's bipartisan about it because nothing is bipartisan about it. They put people in charge of it. But I don't even think as bad as the National Endowment for Democracy is. And it's really, really bad, guys. I don't even think that's the worst part of this whole.

28:56 legislation that got passed. As a matter of fact, I think it hid the real awful part of this legislation because this legislation was the same one that set up a couple of other organizations that you guys have heard me talk about. And that was the International Republican Institute or Institute, International Republican Institute.

29:25 That is the so let me paint this picture for you. You have the National Endowment for Democracy. And in order to buy off the Republicans and Democrats in passing the actual privatization of a CIA function under their a couple of DNC acts, they say.

29:55 okay, if you let us do this, we're going to set up a slush fund. And the slush fund is going to be put under the control of the Republican Party on one side, and we're going to give the DNC their own slush fund. So let me just read briefly what the Wikipedia entry says about this part.

30:22 It says the National Endowment for Democracy is a grant making foundation, distributed funds to other private non-organizational governmental organizations for promoting democracy in around 90 countries. It was well over 100 at this point. Half of the National Endowment for Democracy funding is allocated annually to four main U.S. organizations. Now, this is only half of it.

30:51 So they keep half. And then there's four entities that they don't report to National Endowment for Democracy, but they're tethered under them for funding. So you can kind of think of it as a hierarchy. The first one is called the American Center for International Labor Solidarity. And again, this is the international control of all labor movements.

31:21 This American Center for International Labor Solidarity goes around and they have spies that infiltrate unionization efforts against American companies or Western companies for that matter. And if you are a legitimate union that you are trying to unionize against the West, they will hunt you down. They will destroy any effort that you make to actually form a union.

31:51 What they do is then go behind those people and create basically fake unions like the Red Brigade did in Italy in order to pretend to be addressing labor. But it's actually infiltrated with the Nazis being the fascist, being part of the international syndicate. So they will pretend like they're a union. They'll get everybody in there and they will never do a damn thing for the people ever, the workers ever, because they're under the control.

32:21 of this organization. The second one is called, let's see, the Center for International Private Enterprise, which is basically affiliated with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. So they're going to own the international labor, and then they're going to own the international business under the guise of this

32:53 Democracy apparatus. So the international private enterprise is to basically coerce the privatization of nationally held entities in foreign countries. So you remember in the story about Chile that they had granted concessions to Freeport for the mining of the copper.

33:19 and to ITT for their phone systems. And Allende wanted to bring them back into and basically nationalize them to get them out of the hands of the Americans. Whether or not he long-term intended, and many people say he did not, long-term intend to keep them under the auspices of the government, but what he wanted to do is get them out of the hands of a foreigner. And in doing that, this entity

33:47 affiliated with the Chamber of Commerce kicks into gear. So now I own your labor and I'm going to be the one that's setting up the business infrastructure. And if you try to unionize against me or you try to nationalize any of your companies, I am going to bring the full weight of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. And if you go to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce website, you're going to find all of these entities that.

34:17 are like American businessmen for Ukraine, American businessmen for Slovakia, American businessmen for blah, blah, blah. It doesn't say exactly that. But they have this entire country-by-country apparatus under the Chamber of Commerce.

34:35 That is basically another aspect for the CIA, because remember how many of these stories involve the immigrant population, how they infiltrate the immigrant population and they get spies because they speak the language. They're the easiest train, blah, blah, blah. And then they insert them into different immigrant associations like under the Chamber of Commerce. And then they pay for them to travel back to their country to spy on their country.

35:04 Their former homeland country, they will be used to spy on because they speak the language. They still have relatives because they focus on newly immigrated people who have contact. And it's the same process they use with the local universities where they basically have recruiters for the CIA at Harvard and all of these other places and use.

35:33 use those entities as part of their spy recruitment. All right, so we've got the labor unions covered. We've got the business community. And then the last two, one's called the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs. That's ran as a flush fund for the DNC to do whatever they want overseas to include funding revolutions. The second one is the IRI.

36:00 which is the Republican version of that, the International Republican Institute. Now, just because we think the GOP, well, the majority of us are affiliated as independents or the GOP. So let's look at the International Republican Institute, because I remember the first time that I looked at this, my jaw dropped on the floor, because you won't find it at all surprising.

36:29 That for 25 years, Senator John McCain served as the chairman of the board of the IRI. So John McCain orchestrated and funded regime change all over the world. You want to know where he got his funding for the ISIS? He sat on a pot of tens of millions of dollars as the IRI chairperson.

36:59 to do whatever the hell he wanted, wherever the hell he wanted to do it at. Okay. And I want to know why no one did all of the research on John McCain. And I'm not saying no one did, but why was this not front and center on everybody's frontal lobe? When we were talking about John McCain, he served on this board. And do you know who?

37:29 replaced him? None other than Dan Sullivan, the senator from Alaska. Dan Sullivan is sitting on that board in charge of all of that money. That, to me, is crazy. And of course, if you look at Dan Sullivan's background, his dad

38:00 is an international business owner. And he has all kinds of different businesses as far as product goes, but primarily construction and things like that. They own a company called Republic Powdered Metals that has contracts and all kinds of things. But anyway, so their family is...

38:29 in a position to benefit from, number one, him being a senator, and number two, him being in charge of the purse strings of a large organization like the IRI. It also says that early on in the early 2000s, he was selected as a White House fellow, which

39:00 Means that that generally like if you're in the military and you get to be a White House fellow, you're going to spend a year like in the National Security Council or whatever. But he actually served on the National Economic Council and the National Security Council for the George Bush administration. He advised George Bush and the National Security Advisor.

39:29 while he was there. So again, this guy is red, white, and blue swamp material. So he's the guy that's in charge of it now, but let's go back because I do want to talk just a little bit about the IRI and what it's been involved in during John McCain's tenure being in charge of the purse strings. So initially, oh, and by the way,

40:02 You're not going to believe this either. They actually have their own freedom award that they give out to people. And, you know, they gave it to people like, oh, my God, Ronald Reagan. Isn't that funny? They gave it out to the president of El Salvador that basically was allowing the CIA in there setting up terrorist training camps. They gave it to the woman that was couped.

40:30 by her military over in Myanmar, the former Burma, for illegal actions during the election. So here's some of the funding that IRI was responsible for. Haiti, they gave money to Haiti, or they got money from USAID for Haiti.

41:00 from 2002 to 2004. And it said that they stopped funding it in 2007. So they were basically giving money to Haiti. And I looked into this particular one. And this is, we found, Cousin It and Bridget and I found a video called Haiti Democracy Undone, which

41:30 basically illustrates the role of the coup, in the coup that the IRI paid for. They actually was involved in overthrowing the Haitian government in the early 2000s. And that movie actually talks about it. And that was kind of, when we first found that, when we did the deep dive on Haiti,

42:01 um in our geographical studies that was the first time that i found out about mccain's role in the iri because i just it was something that i didn't even know existed so that's when i did the research on it um also it says the brian curran the u.s ambassador at the time and a former clinton appointee accused the iri of undermining his efforts

42:31 to negotiate a peace settlement with Aristide and his opposition to the parliamentary elections in 2000. So it's rich that you have a Democrat accusing the IRI of interfering in elections when, in fact, the Democrats use their portion of this slush fund to do exactly the same thing. I guess they just don't like it when you do it.

42:59 to them as opposed to something that they would agree upon mutually. I don't know. Also, the IRI got involved with the National Endowment for Democracy in think tanks in Mexico and Honduras in order to create or help create a constitutional crisis in Honduras.

43:27 because they were trying to destabilize that country. In 2008, the government of Cuba accused staff member Kaleb McQuarrie of orchestrating the 2004 Haitian coup. And he was part of the IRI's ensemble working with John McCain. In the Middle East, they have been involved in Egypt.

43:59 and Tanzania. And they also got involved in Egypt a couple of different times. They've been involved in Poland, let's see, since 1991, creating all kinds of havoc there. They also were sending quite a bit of money over to the Hong Kong

44:30 pro-democracy movements. And just for the record, we haven't got to Hong Kong yet, but I've come across several articles that basically say the most of what we watched on television about Hong Kong's resistance to merging back into China, because again, like Taiwan, it was China all along. It was stolen by the UK through the Boxer Wars.

45:01 So most of that was instigated by entities like IRI. I've actually watched videos. There's videos out there that talk about and actually like highlight with the circle the people that were paid agitators and getting the crowds to basically stage these protests that in reality they were not nearly as bad as what they were.

45:29 portrayed on television, which, you know, shouldn't surprise anybody at this point. And I would encourage you to go look at the Wikipedia because I'm not going to go over all of them, but it does say that they were heavily engaged in Africa and just about every country that we know there has been a coup. Congo being one, Burkina Faso.

45:55 Zimbabwe, Uganda, Sudan, Tanzania. We've covered many of these, Somalia, Nigeria, Ghana. Most of those we covered when we did Africa, but they've also been involved in Bangladesh. No surprise, they just had a coup. Burma, Indonesia, Korea, Laos, Malaysia. Again, all of these we've been through, most of them, and they've all been couped. So they're very involved in Taiwan.

46:23 They even have a field office in Taiwan. How about that? It was set up in October 2020. In Eurasia, they've been involved in Armenia. You know, they are always having problems. Georgia, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Ukraine, Uzbekistan. Big surprise, right? Europe, Albania, Bosnia, Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Kosovo. You know, all of the destabilized Serbia.

46:52 all of the destabilized areas. And Latin America, you've got, and it can't be a coincidence, okay, that every place these guys are involved in has been couped. Come on, we're well past that part. So again, you can, there's a lot of references here. I've checked out and read many of the articles that they cite in this to know that.

47:18 Most of what they leave a lot out, but most of what they have in there is legitimate comments about it. And so it says from 1984 to 90, the National Endowment for Democracy received 15 to 18 million dollars from the congressional funding and 25 to 30 million from the 91 to 93 time frame. At the time, the funding came from.

47:44 what was called the U.S. Information Agency, which now is called USAID. It says in 93, National Endowment for Democracy nearly lost its congressional funding after the House of Representatives initially voted to abolish it. The funding of $35 million, a raise from the $30 million the year before, was only retained after vigorous campaigns by the NED supporters.

48:12 You can imagine who those NED supporters are because it's going to be everybody that's. And see, this happens. Remember when I told you about the School of Americas where Congress voted to defund them and then the very year that it would have been unfunded was coerced into refunding it and moving it to Fort Benning under the hemispheric blah, blah, blah class.

48:41 Anytime Congress has shown a backbone to do something, it is immediately undone, which tells you that you don't own your congressman. Someone else does. Because even when they try to do their job, they are immediately overturned and made to do something differently. And we seriously need to think about what the force is behind.

49:11 The that kind of manipulation of a congressman. I mean, seriously, what is it that they're doing to the Congress people? I don't really want to know literally, but they're if they stand up and take a stance on something that is absolutely the right thing to do. It is almost immediately in every case that I've researched undone.

49:42 So it also says in 2018, President Trump proposed to slash NED's funding and cut its links to the Democrat and Republican institutes. So he is very much aware of the fact that what those things are doing. But of course, here's how it's portrayed. The Trump administration wants to dismantle Ronald Reagan's infrastructure of democracy. So they portray.

50:12 the taking away of a Democrat and Republican slush fund that is coming out of our tax money as basically an insult to Ronald Reagan. So you see why it's important for them to keep the ruse of Ronald Reagan being the hero? Because just like with everything else, it's a propaganda campaign. Ronald Reagan was not a hero. He's the one that approved all this bullshit.

50:36 And he's the one that lied to us about the Contras and about Angola and selling shit to Iran through Israel. So anyway, I just found it very interesting that all of this information is out there for us to look at, but most of us don't know to look at it. So on the Wikipedia, as if they want to throw salt in the wound at the end, it says,

51:08 The National Endowment Board of Directors give an annual democracy award to recognize individuals. In the year 2022, the award was given to the Anti-Corruption Action Center in Ukraine, also to the Public Interest Journalism Lab in Ukraine. So they have no journalism. They shut down all the press.

51:36 And it's the most corrupt country on earth. So the National Endowment for Democracy, while they're not having presidential elections, gives Ukraine an award. Does it get any more ludicrous than that? I don't think so. And in 2021, they...

52:02 Paying tribute to Nicaragua, Honduras, and Guatemala and El Salvador. So you, I'm sorry, but so much of this crap is just hilarious. The Uyghur, oh God. Okay, I probably shouldn't have kept looking because it gets even more ridiculous. We just talked about Tibet and how that whole thing's a lie. So 2019.

52:32 Defenders of human and religious rights in China, they gave the award to the Uyghurs and the Tibet. And I'm going to tell you, the Uyghurs are basically the same thing. They had terrorist training camps set up there, too, to agitate China from the Uyghur territory, too. They basically are just another Tibet story. So, again, those are the people. So you could probably go through here and every place that they are.

53:00 telling us that these people are, quote unquote, you know, models of democracy, you're going to find that they're actually the bad people, which is kind of what our government has done to us during this entire time. So also, they have a Center for International Media Assistance, you know, like somebody needs assistance in media.

53:28 which is basically a forum for the CIA to influence international media under the guise of a quote-unquote nonprofit. That was set up under the National Endowment for Democracy in 2006, which would have been right around the time that they're going to begin controlling the narrative for the Barack Obama campaign.

53:57 Of course, you can see that both as censorship and a shaping narrative part of that. And then again, I would highly encourage you guys to go read. I won't go through all of them, but they're in, not that I am a fan of Wikipedia, but they do do a good job in summarizing some of the negative comments that have been recorded.

54:26 by different governments. They only have a handful, but there's numerous ones if you go and look independently of Wikipedia that all correctly identify the National Endowment for Democracy as the former regime change apparatus of the CIA. And it 100% is that under the guise of using our tax dollars for it.

54:56 With that, I'm going to open it up. But I did want to let you guys know there's a lot of really good articles out there about how how bad this thing is. And, you know, I just I highly encourage you to look into it because it really is bad. So who's surprised that Newland didn't really go to Columbia University and is now part of the National Endowment for Democracy?

55:32 Nobody that's paying attention. That's for sure. So anybody got comments? Yeah, I figured since I had to do my diatribe on the National Endowment for Democracy once they made that announcement about Newland that we were going to have to at least have a single space on it just to kind of go over because it kind of cuts across all of the.

56:06 Operation Gladio regional areas because they've been very active in all of them. And really, if you go to their website, it is like the who's who of Gladio. If you know about Gladio and you know where all of the regime changes are, you're going to go down through all of the literature that they wrote. And you can look at the timing of when they were writing literature on it to craft the narrative for going into regime change. And it's just, it's stunning, actually.

56:37 It's completely ridiculous. And, you know, and here's the other thing, guys, you really want to follow regime changes, follow powers. You know, funny enough, everywhere that she goes, some sort of LBTQ queer fag agenda pops up, you know, like in Georgia.

57:01 where they had to identify themselves as foreign agents, and now there's, quote, demonstrations in the streets. So follow powers. And now follow Newland, because, you know, she is an evil bitch. That woman is one nasty bitch. Keep your eyes on her, because she was the one that really kind of kicked it off in Ukraine. SR-71, go ahead.

57:34 Thank you, Colonel. Two points of observation here. First of all, if anybody's really been paying attention, what you find out is it's like Congress passing legislation. They give you a sweet sounding name as the header for the bill. And once you find out what's really in it, it's not really what that header is all about. And that's the same thing with all these organizations.

58:01 But the only other thing I can say is Zelensky must have been a very good guy because not only is he getting money out of the taxpayers' pockets, now he's getting money from Ned and everywhere else. Other than that, I'll step back and let somebody else talk. That's very true. Well, we don't have a lot of hands today. People are probably just gobsmacked. Oh, my God.

58:32 Yeah, it's it's crazy. And I do find it interesting if you look at their annual budget, it had continuously went up, but only by a little under Trump. And in 2020, it went down it like more than cut in half in 2020. And then it skyrocketed under.

59:01 the Biden first year in 2021. It went from, Trump cut it from 197 down to 92. And of course, we're still talking millions, but in 2021, it went up to 254. And then in 2022, it went up to 322. $322 million of your money laundered through bullshit stuff.

59:34 Let's see. Molly, I'll bring you up. You can go ahead. What you got, Molly? Can you hear me? I'm going to have to go back. We actually have a current trail of evidence right there in what you mentioned about the Alaska senator. What do you mean? Yeah. For democracy, there should be no...

1:00:45 slush fund for the republicans and another slush fund for the chamber of commerce and another slush fund for the democrats and another slush fund for the unions um that it's just garbage we're broke it's it's retarded so um anyway uh lumi did you come up for comments yeah i actually came up to say that point i was in the middle of something and that that's probably one of the best points i've heard in a long time which was

1:01:18 exposing these institutions where individuals, political power have board seats where they have these basically unchecked power, which no one really understands 99% of the time. And bringing light to that, I think is going to be really interesting because I mean that I'd say a lot of the random stuff, which probably happens to us comes from these random institutions, which no one's looking at.

1:01:46 Right, exactly. Yeah. Who else? Benjamin? Hi, Colonel. Bridget said you can hear more clearly up on top of the stage, so I came up here. That way I could hear you. It was breaking up down in the audience pretty good. It seems like they don't want people to hear your message.

1:02:15 It may have just been me not updating the app on this particular one. I'll cut them a little slack. But, yeah. So here's an interesting tidbit. Y'all know who Ann Applebaum is? She worked at The Atlantic, The Economist, The Spectator. Very, very.

1:02:49 what would I call her? Almost a borderline socialist as far as a term goes. Well, she has been a board member of the National Endowment for Democracy for quite a while, along with a woman by the name of Rachel Kleinfeld, says that those two are the most prominent.

1:03:18 published board members on there. And both have sought to delegitimize the Republican IRI as well as Republican voters in general. She has been quoted as saying they aren't even a legitimate political party. She's, let's see. I mean, she.

1:03:44 She's quite interesting because anyone who comes out of the London School of Economics, Yale, and also Oxford, I kind of think to myself, right, which spy agency has approached you first? And, like, who really are you at this point? Who owns you? You know what I mean? So, and it's funny you say that because you know who she's married to? Oh, please. The former Polish Minister of Defense.

1:04:16 This is like Gladio, like all over it. Right. That's crazy. Yeah. Yeah. So that's the person that you want, you know, being on the board of the National Endowment for Democracy, who's in bed literally with the Defense Department. It's crazy. I mean, every single one of these things that we look into, it just gets more crazy and more crazy.

1:04:45 There's another one, Jedediah Frazier, who was the Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs during the Bush administration, was a board member. She is quoted as saying about President Trump, quote, I am a Republican, but I would rather my country not go down the fascist route about President Trump. So she's basically calling Trump a fascist.

1:05:12 As she's on the board of the organization going around overthrowing governments, she has the audacity to call Trump a fascist while she's engaged in fascist activity. Okay, you two, stop it. Say what I do, but not as I do what I say, but not as I do kind of approach. But like as instead of a guardian, it's like someone who runs and takes over countries. I don't know. This is crazy.

1:05:42 I'm telling you, every one of these stories gets more and more crazy. Oh, and also we have talked about Mel Martinez from Florida on a couple of different occasions. He is a board member, too, and he is 100 percent anti-Trump and said that he would have voted.

1:06:12 for Joe Biden had he decided to run. So obviously he did eventually decide to run. So Mel Martinez, a quote unquote Republican from the state of Florida, anti-Trump big time, who's been involved, by the way, in multiple Cuban exile activities within the state of Florida.

1:06:42 because his name's come up a couple of different times in our research. So you won't at all, again, find out that the guy who doesn't start wars and doesn't want to have perpetual regime change is in the crosshairs of these people while they're sitting on the machine that does the regime changes. So who else? Oh, gosh, you got to be shitting me. Jessica Adelman.

1:07:14 is on there as a board member. Damon Wilson, Kenneth Wallach. Let's see. Oh, Joaquin Castro. Oh, one thing to remember as well is when you're a board member, you generally get some sort of basic pay or something. So it's another way of paying cronies legally.

1:07:39 For a position which sometimes they don't really need to do any work for. So something another thing to just consider is like the numeration, how much money they receive for this position and what they actually do work wise is going to be interesting to uncover. That's a very interesting point. Oh, and Elise Stefanik is on the Republican side of the board of directors. So I definitely let me put this. This is the report that the Heritage.

1:08:10 Let me see if I can get this posted to our space. The Pyramid Foundation? The Heritage Foundation. Oh, Heritage. I was about to say, Jesus, that sounds like an Illuminati cult. Right. That's funny. Let's see. Yeah. A guy by the name of Larry Diamond is the co-founder and editor of the National Endowment.

1:08:44 Journal of Democracy, you know, because we got to write about all of the great things that we do in overthrowing foreign governments. He wrote an article in 2019 in Foreign Affairs that implied that conservatism is incompatible with democracy, arguing that Hungary is no longer a democracy because they elected a conservative candidate. This is the guy that's in charge of the publication for the National Endowment for Democracy.

1:09:16 Oh, my God, you just can't make this shit up. So anyway, what else we got? OK, Benjamin, go ahead. Thanks, Colonel. Just an observation, you know, like listening to all the stuff that you guys have uncovered, you know, with the foundations, with the endowments, with all these different corporations, how all this money laundering is going and everything.

1:09:47 How do we move forward from this? That's what I'm trying to figure out. Like, how can we prevent things like this from happening? You know, because it's too easy to hide things in our world, current world, the way it's set up. So for me, because I, you know, keep it simple, I would do exactly what the Argentine president did. I would put all the stickers on a whiteboard and I just start pulling them off.

1:10:17 and throwing them in the garbage. You're fired. You're fired. You're fired. Every one of these. And they all need to go. They're all gone. Tomorrow, and my husband has made this point. If you take a, and let's just say it's the National Endowment for Democracy, $300 million. And let's say it has a staff of a couple hundred people. I could pay that staff.

1:10:47 their salary for two years, sell the building, which would pay for the staff, sell the land. I would not have any of the administrative costs nor any of the programs because the programs stop immediately. So even if I paid those staff for doing nothing for the next two years, I would save hundreds of millions of dollars on a small entity.

1:11:15 like the National Endowment for Democracy, that is worldwide one of the biggest chaos agents, bar none. And if I did that to the rural electrical co-op that, you know, like eight generations of directors have said they no longer have a need for that and it should have been shut down like 30 years ago once everybody had electricity. Again, anybody working there, you could pay them two years worth of salary.

1:11:44 The buildings and the assets these things have alone, if they sold them tomorrow, would pay for the salary and I no longer have to carry them as a line item in the budget. We would immediately save trillions of dollars by doing this. And you're not going to immediately disrupt the economy because you're going to maintain their salaries for the next two years.

1:12:12 But you're going to put all of that efficiency of those people back into the market. So to me, that's the easiest way to and we can argue all day about, oh, they don't deserve it. You're right. They don't. I don't give a shit. I want to turn the corner and I want to start over without this burdensome federal government. And I would go one step farther. I want to return.

1:12:41 And I know that's where Trump is going, but I would say it right out. I want to go back to the original Constitution, constitutional way of paying for the federal government. And I want it to come out of the state's budget. I want 100 percent of the federal government to be paid for by the state. They can increase my taxes at the state level because I'm no longer going to pay federal taxes. And that's fine with me because my state governor.

1:13:10 is going to hold those bastards in check. And I want the state senators or the federal senators appointed by the state legislatures as the check and balance on the federal budget, just the way it was intended before they corrupted it. And then once you shut the doors, they will never reopen. Blue, go ahead. No, just.

1:13:37 Making popcorn, getting things ready. It sounds like it's going to be a fun space. If you guys would like to share the space, that'd be awesome. I got a Jiffy Pop on the barbecue, but no, I was in the middle of something. And then you mentioned democracy. I don't find democracy inside the Constitution. There was nothing mentioned about that. And with everything going, sorry, I don't mean to impede on that. Did I step on you? I'm sorry.

1:14:07 No, I'm agreeing with you. Go ahead. Oh, no. So if we go back to the Constitution, I mean, this is why we vote early. So that way we can catch him in the act, because in other words, we would be doing this after the fifth. And, you know, once we go, if he gets back in, we can go back to the Constitution and we can expose a lot of this. A lot of people will say, well, nothing happened in 2020. Well, we didn't get the chance. Now we have the chance.

1:14:34 So a lot of this money laundering and a lot of, you know, writing up petitions and everything else and doing what we got to do to move forward. Yes, we get our country back if Trump comes in. But no, that's why we talk about the work starts there. Right. And then that's why the pen is mightier than a sword. They want to use the pen as a sword. So can we. Starts with grassroots. Right. We could stop all this. It just takes them to get in. I mean, Colonel, am I kind of.

1:15:05 I've been talking to people about this all day. People are pissed off about the prices that they pay and stealing. It's been a fun day. I just got off work and trying to come in and join. Thank you. I appreciate it. Cousin Nick, go ahead. I think I found another one called the Jamestown Foundation. Have we covered them? I have a tab on them. I don't think I have covered them.

1:15:39 What did you find? No, I just happened to uncover a couple of things today. I tagged you in it and shared it in the signal. Because the National Endowment for Democracy is on full display, thanks to Newland. So I did a little digging on people that were similar.

1:16:06 and they came up and they're all ex-spooks they're all cia yeah um yeah a good chance to do you know like a deep dive but i did see where they got like hayden and all of those people um oh yeah yeah yeah um i'll move it up in the pile because i i think you're right i think right now is the time to um throw that kind of stuff out there um but yeah good find

1:16:37 SR-71. I like the way you're thinking, Colonel, and taking care of getting rid of these places and giving them severance pay for two years. The only thing that I would caution about all of that is what we do know, and every time this happens, they pop up again with a different name. And that's got to be monitored somehow. We got to figure out what these people are going to come back with and how they're going to get back in.

1:17:07 They wouldn't be able to get back in if you returned the authority for the federal government and its size and its budget to the state and you make the state pay for it again. If the state has to pay for it, it's the same thing with the census and the sanctuary bullshit. Because the way that the taxes are apportioned.

1:17:28 when the state pays them is by each head that's in the state. Do you think the government's going to, the governors are going to have extra heads so they can have to pay more money? No, they're going to police their own fricking borders. We'd have checkpoints at every border crossing because they don't want the extra people in their country. So, or in their state. And so there would be a, they would be a crackdown. There would be E-Verify in every.

1:17:56 facet. There would be people checking people at the doors of Publix and Home Depot and everywhere else because they don't want any of these people taking a census for us to have to pay taxes as a result of that. So it just isn't going to happen if we would return our country to the republic that it used to be. I understand your concern, but those were the checks and balances.

1:18:22 It only became this way once they removed them, which is why they removed them, quite frankly. Let me bring something else up here real quick. Damon Wilson, who is the, if he's not still, he was just the National Endowment for President. Prior to taking the job as the president of the National Endowment for Democracy president, he served as the vice president of the Atlantic Council.

1:18:53 which has got even more spooks on it than the Jamestown Foundation does. And I think there's seven former CIA directors on the Atlantic Council. And he also helped develop the Digital Forensic Research Lab. The Digital Forensic Research Lab is one of the four founding members of the Election Integrity Partnership, which according to the Subcommittee on Weaponization of the Federal Government,

1:19:22 was a consortium of disinformation academics led by Stanford's Internet Observatory. Wait, you go back to Stanford again? How do you always do this? Every story we do has a Stanford angle. We know that by now. The Stanford Internet Observatory worked directly with the Department of Homeland Security and Global Engagement Center, a multi-agency entity housed in the State Department.

1:19:51 to censor Americans' online speech in the 2020 presidential election. The Election Integrity Partnership, originally and perhaps more aptly called the Election Disinformation Partnership, provided a way for the federal government to launder its censorship activities in hopes of bypassing the First Amendment. So there you have it. Let's see. Pure Democracy. What you got? Hi.

1:20:24 Yes, even if one did believe in democracy, one wouldn't want the type of democracy that they're spreading. The idea of democracy is power by the people. And so when people elect their dictators for a term of office, this is not democracy by any means.

1:20:55 but they love to call it democracy and make people believe it's democracy, like the idea of democracy. Yes, who wouldn't want power by the people? Who wouldn't want that? But the idea is to make people believe they're getting democracy, but what they're getting is something else. They're getting a totalitarian plutocracy, a power by the wealthiest.

1:21:25 When the Republic was in its early days, there were certain people who fought against this idea of profit sharing, like on the cod fishing. These people were owners of big companies. So the Republic fought against the same.

1:21:59 The same powers. We're facing the same problem like everywhere. And of course, they're spreading it everywhere with this thing like national endowment for so-called democracy in inverted commas. Because that's not democracy. It's anti-democratic. And in actual fact, in the Republic, at the local levels, there is a very high degree of democracy. It's a direct democracy.

1:22:30 It wasn't electing somebody to represent them, but rather the community voting on what they wanted. Right. Yep. Thank you. Blue, go ahead. Oh, actually, I got a question because you know where I work and whatnot. You know, I've got my material for the next, I think I work tomorrow night, I close, and then I got the next two days.

1:23:01 Where I live is a resort area, and you go hunting and fishing up here. So we don't really have much on the shelf, so I can start a convo because people talk about prices and everything else. When I go on to the steel and everything else, they, Colonel, I believe a lot more people are going to be talking about this. Lobbying. And it took a trucker, he was Russian, and he brought up the lobbying. He thinks that...

1:23:28 the election there could be lobbying. And then I kind of helped him on that topic. And then he said, if we go, I brought him down the road of when we go back to a constitutional state and once everything in the grassroots and everybody stands up and, you know, does things, we're going to be able to get our states back and we're not going to have this money laundering and stuff. And then, you know, I, when I, I've talked to like six or seven, maybe 10 people.

1:23:57 I brought the same thing. And every and these 10 people that I talked to said, well, even if we get our states back and we go back to the constitutional, they're still going to be lobbling. And I go back to the same thing. Trump, he said no more lobbling. I mean, Colonel, I could be wrong. I'm on material, but I'm thinking I'm stirring them. I mean, a lot of people don't know what we know. So I'm just trying to help. I'm going to land my plane there. Thank you.

1:24:26 Benjamin, go ahead. Thanks, Colonel. The information of truth that the Aspen Institute thing that they were trying to do where they had, I think it was Prince Harry, they were going to bring him in and have him police information in the United States. He was going to be one of the people that was deciding if something was factual or not here in America. I thought that was super odd.

1:24:57 Yeah, nothing like bringing in the UK to re-imperialize the US. Wait, can someone explain that to me, please? Oh my God. Yeah, that was funny. Wait, so what happened with this whole, what was he meant to be doing? Because please send me the link to that because I'm very interested now. Yeah.

1:25:20 If you find the link to that, Benjamin, just throw it in the pill. Because, yeah, I do remember that. That was hilarious. Because, you know, there's a Prince Harry. You know, he's going to be appearing on most likely not speculation, not just my opinion. But he was good friends with P. Diddy and he was in that house of his quite often. So, yeah, maybe that was the reason why he didn't get the job.

1:25:48 Well, that would have been the reason why he did get the job, because he's blackmailable. Come on, Lumi, you know better. Oh, yeah, you're right. The more you're black, the more you're compromised, the more higher you go. That's the rule, isn't it? Damn, I forgot. You're starting to use your normal brain again. This is not a normal brain space. You have to have your Gladio glasses on at all times while you're in this space. SR-71, go. In one year from now.

1:26:17 This space is recorded. We're going to have an absolute laugh when we're talking about this. I think you're right. Go ahead, SR7. I did want to say we did get some good news here in Virginia today. You did. Youngkin's order stands. Yep. Voters are gone. No illegal alien voters on the rolls. Imagine that. The fact that that even has to be questioned.

1:26:46 tells you that we do not live in a republic and the timing of the questioning of this is even more important because like i mean not gonna lie how close is it you know well and you know you could almost i know there's a lot of people out there that believe all of this stuff is you know there is being timed for a reason um if if you were to kick off illegal aliens

1:27:12 off of voter rolls, you know, nine months ago, a year ago, it would have not had near the impact of doing it in the middle of an election. So I do understand why some people have the feeling that there is much more to what's going on.

1:27:37 I'm still a facts person. I like to know that for sure before I start throwing things out like that. But it does give credence to the people who do believe those things. So I'm all about acknowledging the pervasive, you know, thought processes that we see every day. You can't not address them. And it does add credence to them when you see things like this,

1:28:07 clutch moment, these things are happening and they're getting the widest visibility that could possibly occur. So anyway, Benjamin, go ahead. Yeah, no, I'll try to find the information on it. I think it was the Institution of Disinformation, and it was created by the Aspen Institute. And the stickler is, why are you going to bring a foreign agent, a foreign prince, and have him police the speech within the United States?

1:28:38 Another thing to take a look at is like it's a big deal right now with Prince Charles going down to Australia and stuff. They made a big deal out of it. And the reason being is because Australia was voting on whether or not they want to remain with Prince Charles as the head of state of Australia or they go and become a republic. OK, so the question the question begs.

1:29:04 Why is King Charles the head of state if the crown has no power? You know, if you look at England or the UK on the surface, they say that they're a republic. But for me, I speculate that the crown... Actually, they're a commonwealth. This is a little misguided. So it's actually a commonwealth. And then if you really get down to the nitty gritty, it's all owned by the city of London. So really and truly, like that's...

1:29:33 That's how it really worked. But with the whole Australia thing, you're right, because when the UK was coming out for their own sovereignty, the Queen took this kind of like, she didn't want to be, she wanted to be impartial, but then she ends up coming out and saying that sovereignty is a really good idea, because obviously she wants control over her own country, and by de facto, all of the Commonwealth, because by giving up her power to the EU, she gives up, or at that time, gives up

1:30:02 any kind of control of her country so what was really interesting if you really look back down to the nitty-gritty there's these guys in the uk called queen's commissioners who are appointed by the queen or now it's king's mission i don't even know but the point is is that they have this whole hierarchy already put in place um which has been around for like a long time in one way or another and that has to be challenged that's the real secret is that um how do you challenge that

1:30:30 Americans have done it really well, and I'm really proud of all my American family and friends for doing this historically and to this day right now. But the secret is, is how do we do this in the modern age with technology moving at the speed of light? It should be much easier than it is, really and truly. Like, it really should be. I don't disagree with that. And I did put the link to the Aspen Institute. The thing was called the Commission on Information Disorder. Yeah, I found it.

1:31:00 It'll get you started. SR-71, I'm going to let you land this because I've got to go tonight's Wednesday night. I have my family dinner night. So go ahead and take us home. Thank you, Colonel. And thank everybody for participating. It's been a lively discussion. And I certainly hope everybody here follows Colonel Towner. Repost anytime you get the chance.

1:31:26 Put it out there. We're growing, not growing as fast as we'd like, but we are growing, and I appreciate that 100%. I know the Colonel does, and I know Cousin It and Bridget. Bridget. I'm sorry, Bridget. I know you're busy hunting, but anyway, they all appreciate it. One other thing I wanted to add concerning our boating processes here and what goes on.

1:31:56 And that all complaints wind up going to the FEC at some point or another. And that's where the hang up's at. And if you pay attention to how these people are appointed and what it takes to even get a hearing out of that place, it's unbelievable. Thank you, Colonel. Oh, and Friday. Yeah, I have a couple of things to talk about.

1:32:23 So tomorrow we are doing our weekly BCCI space at noon with Warhamster. So please make sure you're here for that. We'll be here at four. At eight o'clock, I have a really interesting space that I'm going to be doing. It will be recorded and then the guy is translating it into.

1:32:51 a chapter of a book about veterans that were affected by the burn pits in Iraq. And he's doing it as a fundraiser for veterans charities. And I will be interviewed by him for an hour to two hours tomorrow at eight o'clock on Spaces with Christopher. So you can look for that. I'll send out a link to that when he gets it posted and scheduled.

1:33:20 So that's noon, 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock. Y'all will be sick of me by the end of tomorrow night. I will be on Alpha Warrior tonight at 9.30. And then on Friday, I am tickled pink to announce that we are going to have the infamous Mr. Truth Bomb on our 4 o'clock space. He is going to be here live.

1:33:49 We're going to have a kind of back and forth about the stuff that he's uncovered and how it relates to Operation Gladio. It's going to be kind of a roundtable. Alpha Warrior is going to be part of it. So definitely want to not miss the 4 p.m. Friday show. It's going to be crazy. So anyway, that's that.

1:34:19 Should be very lively conversation. I can't wait. I love Mr. Truth Bomb. And I want to tell you guys something. One of the friends of mine here in the local area, that at the very beginning of this, I mean, several months ago, when we first started doing not just spaces, but podcasts in general, and not doing stuff other than posting, had mentioned to me after her and I had sat down and talked,

1:34:48 you know, like for an hour. She's like, oh my God, do you know who Mr. Truth Bomb is? And I said, I've seen some of his videos. She goes, well, she says, I, you have to talk to him. You have to talk to him. And so once we had been doing the spaces for a little bit, so there was some material for him to actually look through. I don't remember exactly how it worked, but I had reached out to him.

1:35:16 um and posted a couple of things on some things that he had posted and he was like oh crap i didn't know that or whatever and um he started following me and i remember sending her i still have it the picture of him following me and i sent it to her and i'm like well it's gonna happen and so um she kept encouraging me and i had reached out to him a couple of different times and he was in the middle of production because he puts on these amazing um movies that he creates

1:35:45 And or videos, whatever you want to call them. And the couple of times that I've reached out, he's like, you know, I'm really, really busy, blah, blah, blah. And he lives in Europe. So it is not like it's an easy thing to coordinate anyway. So Cousin It reached out to him yesterday and just as a follow up. And he's like, let's do it. And I'm like, OK, let's do it Friday then. So he will be here and I am excited.

1:36:12 for this because this has been months in the making. So it should be very interesting. Anyway, thank you all for being here. God bless. And I will either see you tonight or tomorrow, three different times. Okay. Take care.
