0:01 Thank you for starting us off, Bridget. I was just getting the link up on StreamYard so people can see us over on Rumble as well. Good afternoon. I just put Cousin It up on the co-host. So I wanted to, so let me start with this.
0:35 I found another interesting article that was written by a guy by the name of Hugh Turley, H-U-G-H-T-U-R-L-E-Y. And while I'm not going to spend a lot of time on this, I do think it's relevant because I just want to put a bookmarker here.
1:04 When we get to Vietnam, which again will be a multi-day presentation, we're going to find out that the Catholic Church played a very interesting role in the entire operation of the Vietnam War. One that has not been told in any one specific place. You have to do a lot of digging.
1:34 over multiple sources to be able to figure it all out. So this morning I was looking through some other stuff that had happened in 1968, just kind of finishing up in my brain, kind of trying to close that door, if there was any other weird things that happened. Well, I did run across one thing. There was a guy by the name of Thomas
2:04 And evidently, in Catholic circles, he was like the Ernest Hemingway of the written word in the Catholic Church. You spell his last name M-E-R-T-O-N. From a very elite family, he was sent to a boarding school in England.
2:31 His mom and dad met in a Paris art school. So this is like the creme de la creme, right? So he started school at Cambridge and he also attended school at Columbia. He graduated with a master's degree in English and then began work.
3:01 on a PhD. And he decided to enter the church. And his original church assignment was the Abbey at Gethsemi in Kentucky. So let me spell that. Abbey of G-E-T-H-S-E-M-A-N-I. And he was assassinated in 1968.
3:35 And originally, he was actually assassinated while he was doing work over in Thailand, which is kind of how it ties him into the Vietnam War. Because we know in our study of Operation Gladio that Thailand had been given $35 million to the chief of national police in order to allow the CIA to transit drugs in and out of.
4:04 Thailand both in, hold on just a second, in multiple different ways. Yeah, Bangkok. Okay. So there's a couple of interesting tidbits when you read through this that perks you up if you know anything about Operation Gladio. And one of the things is he was staying at a Red Cross retreat center.
4:36 in bangkok now we know having studied operation gladio that red cross is not really the red cross that you and i know red cross is consistently used by the cia as a front organization um and he was there with some other people that some were friends some not so friendly and
5:07 two of the guys that were good guys found his dead body. And evidently he had been bludgeoned in the head and his body had been positioned so that it looked like it was staged. And there had been a fan that had been laid over his body. And then there's years and years and years that go by.
5:38 These two guys that are the good guys take a picture of him laying there, two pictures actually. And they kept copies of them, but ended up giving the microfiche or the, what do you call it? Oh, I'm having a brain dump. The negatives to the Abbey back in Kentucky that he belonged to.
6:05 Well, immediately the people in the Abbey hide them. Well, why would you hide pictures of a dead body of a guy that's from your church? That's totally weird. Well, eventually these negatives show up in a collection that was donated to Butler Library at Columbia University.
6:38 And when they discover the negatives, there's a whole lot of more information because one of the negatives didn't get developed right away. It was kind of like underexposed, but now we have the technology to do that. And it made clear.
6:55 that there was much more to the injuries of his body. And one of the things that they had said all of those years is that he had been electrocuted and that there were burn marks on his body, only to find out when they did the second negative exposure, that absolutely was not true. And so no autopsy was done. And anyway, it was a very suspicious death.
7:23 And the importance of that, obviously, with the other assassinations that were going on in 1968, was that he happened to be over in Thailand revealing a lot of information in a very effective writing style about the CIA and about what they were doing over there. And he wrote...
7:55 specifically about the Phoenix program, which was an assassination operation being ran by the CIA and was active in Thailand. And of course, it is touted as having, depending on if you use U.S. numbers or actual numbers from the area, 20 to 40,000 people were murdered as part of the Phoenix program. And he definitely
8:22 um was a thorn in their side in exposing um and because they were using the catholic church to kind of hide some of the goings on of moving people um and that type of thing um he would have had inside knowledge to all of that so i just wanted to throw that out there again the guy's name um
8:51 In case he comes up in more of our discovery, Thomas Merton, M-E-R-T-O-N. So just be advised that that's out there. Now we're going to get to what we're really here for. I had been looking. I don't have Netflix and I'm not getting Netflix. I am aware.
9:20 of netflix doing the series on the octopus murders um and uh danny uh costellero i've been on the look for an article that kind of did a good job of summarizing what the netflix series actually um revealed and i found this one this morning that i think did a really good job
9:51 Not that I know what the actual series is, just tying what I've already read all of his papers and the articles that he wrote. And knowing what I know about Gladio, I think this guy does a good job of putting the two together. Again, not necessarily from the perspective of having watched the movie. So I did want to share some of this article that was written.
10:20 And it was written by a guy by the name of Jeremy Kuzmarzov, K-U-Z-M-A-R-O-V. He has a really interesting kind of more progressive leaning, which anyway, be that what it is. Okay, so.
10:50 Just a little review about Casolaro himself. He had been working on the networking, trying to map out, quote unquote, the octopus. And people wanted to know what the octopus was. And he labeled the octopus.
11:21 It had to do with stolen software to carry out an array of criminal activity tied to the Iran-Contra enterprise, which is basically the covert CIA, and other major scandals. The crimes included heroin and cocaine smuggling, which of course we know is Operation Gladio, and stealing gold, political spying on allies and private citizens, and the unlawful
11:48 weapon sales to right-wing extremists and political death squads in South and Central America, which of course we know is Operation Condor. After traveling to West Virginia to interview a secret source in his investigation, Casolaro was found with both of his forearms deeply slashed over eight times, severing the tendons in both arms and was in a bathtub full of his own blood. He was in a Sheraton hotel.
12:21 Such wounds made it impossible for him to have done an actual suicide because you can't cut both of your arms that extensively and then be able to use the one you just cut to cut the other. It's just impossible. It's another one of those suicide but was shot five times scenarios. Hansen explained around 2013, he began...
12:50 became obsessed with the Casolaro case and abandoned his job as a photographer for the New York Times to pursue the same leads that Casolaro was pursuing and basically investigate his death. Over the course of 10 years, Hansen met key figures within the Casolaro orbit and others who knew him intimately. These people included a guy by the name of Bill Hamilton,
13:19 A former NSA employee who founded this computer software company in 1970, which is Innslaw. And Innslaw is the company that created Promise Software. And that software, known as Promise, was stolen by, as this author is saying, agents of the octopus within the Reagan Bush Justice Department. So it was stolen by the DOJ.
13:50 after the Innslaw company presented it to the DOJ as a solution to be able to track money laundering of international syndicate players, which, of course, they would never want to do unless it was tracking it being done by someone else so that they could blackmail them but keep doing it themselves, which is exactly what they ended up doing because they wrote back doors both.
14:17 at Mossad and at the CIA into the software and used it after they stole it from these guys. This revolutionary computer software was then clandestinely sold to foreign countries and used to carry out covert operations financed through money laundering, including at the BCCI and Castle Bank and the Australian Nugent Hand Bank.
14:46 Now, we have to keep this in mind because we've talked about all three of them. We've talked quite extensively about BCCI and the fact that it was founded in the early 1970s. It was bankrupted in 1991. Well, the other external, it was exposed in 1991 is a better way to say it because the bank still exists in Pakistan. It's just not allowed to do business outside of Pakistan because it was deemed a criminal enterprise.
15:16 Castle Bank is the Paul Helliwell Bank that was set up to help the Vatican money launder. And Nugent Hand, you will remember, is the bank that was in Australia that Nugent was found assassinated in his Mercedes car and Hand went on the run and ended up in Idaho. And I've been, I'm in the middle of mapping Hand to South Africa.
15:45 And all of the countries that we just studied, Angola, Rhodesia, he was in all of those. He was one of the weapons traffickers using Nugent Hand and BCCI to money launder. He was the guy that was actually out in the field arranging the weapons movement into South Africa from Israel and other destinations.
16:13 into Angola and Rhodesia and many other places down there in order to carry out Operation Gladio regime change operations. So that's why I find this story so interesting, because to me, I am absolutely convinced at this point, Danny Casolaro was on to Operation Gladio, just like we are.
16:43 Okay, another guy, Michael Ricanosuto, let me spell his name, R-I-C-O-N-O-S-C-I-U-T-O, was a science and computer protege whose father, Marshall Ricanosuto, worked with Wackenhut. Wackenhut is a well-documented CIA front
17:14 quote-unquote security company, Michael modified the promised software for the CIA to covertly deploy on an Indian reservation in California as a means of processing illegal weapons to the Nicaraguan Contras in violation of the Bolin Amendment passed by Congress that said they weren't allowed to arm the Contras anymore. Michael was later set up
17:44 on a phony drug charge and sentenced to a quarter century behind bars because he knew too much about the CIA's grossly criminal covert operations. Robert Booth Nichols, who at least some point in his life was posing as an Air Force officer,
18:13 was a CIA covert operator who was the coordinator of one of the principal tentacles of the octopus who had become a secret confidential source for Casalero and his investigation. John Philip Nichols, another CIA covert operation who worked for the CIA in Brazil and Chile,
18:39 and was operating on the Indian Reservation where the Promise software was modified. So I don't know if those two are related. When a member of the tribe by the name of Fred Alvarez began probing into Nichols' business dealings, Alvarez and two of his associates were murdered by...
19:09 a CIA assassin by the name of Philip Arthur Thompson, who also murdered Michael Riscone, I don't know how to pronounce his last name, Riconosuto's business partner, Paul Morasca, M-O-R-A-S-C-A.
19:43 When interviewed, Danny Casolaro's brother, Anthony Casolaro, a Virginia-based doctor who in the 2000s served as a consulting physician for the White House Medical Unit. And see, I didn't know that part. Sherry Seymour, a California-based journalist who wrote The Last Circle, Danny Casolaro's investigation into the Octopus and Promise software.
20:13 and Ann Klink, a close friend of Danny Casolaro, who was a senior producer for MSNBC's political show Hardball, starring Chris Matthews. So those people were all interviewed. During the first three episodes of the documentary, the viewer is led to believe that Hansen is skeptical of the official designation.
20:41 as a suicide and thinks that the octopus was actually engaged in the very criminal activities of which Danny Casolaro was publicly charging. However, three quarters of the way through the fourth and final episode, Hansen suddenly veers away from a very obvious conclusion and announces to the viewers that Hansen is certain of only one thing, that only one person was in Danny's hotel room, Danny, and that basically...
21:11 He committed a suicide and that you were to conclude that the people who believe the octopus conspiracy are out of their mind and had manipulated Casolaro into wasting his life. And see, that's the part that I had heard, which is why I thought it all very interesting. And of course, we would know that they would do that as a way of the limited hangout kind of thing.
21:41 yeah look at all of this bad stuff but he was crazy so none of it's don't look here none of this is real the turning point for hansen regarding the credibility of bill hamilton and michael riconosuto was when one of bill hamilton's highly placed intelligence sources a person by the name of norma giacinto
22:08 who reportedly told Hamilton that his promised software had been deployed to program U.S. nuclear submarines, said that this extraordinarily highly classified information had been conveyed to her on paper napkins in a bowling alley. The clear implication on Hansen's part was that Giacinto was so clearly non-credible as a source
22:35 So it must be everything else is not credible. After being confronted about Giacinto, Hansen reported that Hamilton stopped returning his phone calls and retracted some of the things he had said earlier. Hansen then went on to expressively depict Michael Reconosuto as being paranoid and a web spinner who spins stories that may only be partially true.
23:03 Hansen asserts to his viewers that all of these people are insane and it's so fucking sad. That's a quote. While Hansen is careful not to denigrate Casolaro himself, he suggests that he was being manipulated by Hamilton, Reconosuto, and Robert Booth Nichols, who was exposed as a con man in 2008 when he was implicated in a Ponzi scheme.
23:30 by his business partner and then suddenly reported as having died though many believe he faked his death and is still alive hiding somewhere because that's something that just you know normally people would do hansen characterized casolaro as a golden boy with a great personality but asserted that he had developed an obsession with this octopus idea and it was that that caused him to self-destruct
24:00 like a Greek tragedy. According to Hansen, when Danny realized that he had been drawn into a rabbit hole, it appears that he killed himself. That theory presented is that Casolaro had driven himself basically deeply in debt, couldn't find a publisher to write a tell-all book, and that him committing suicide was like an act of desperation. Such a conclusion on the part of Hansen is outrageous because Hansen knew for a fact
24:31 that William Hamilton's promised software had in fact been stolen and was being used to establish money laundering networks by the CIA and was being used to finance criminal covert operations and that surveillance networks included by foreign governments had been sold the software illegally to enable the octopus to spy on them.
24:57 and all of their financial transactions. Because keep in mind, people, the entire mass fortune that Robert Maxwell was able to stabilize his media empire with was gotten by selling copies of promised software to governments for Mossad.
25:23 So it's definitely real. There's a 20-year-plus court case of Innslaw suing the Department of Justice for stealing it. So the fact is real. Prior to his death, Casolaro was planning to fly to Australia to try to uncover new information about the Nugent Hand Bank, a CIA money laundering front by veterans of the secret war in Laos.
25:52 who was involved in large-scale drug smuggling. And let me just clarify that. So when we looked into Nugent Hand Bank, and you remember in many of these stories, I tell you that the board of directors are like musical chairs. So Nugent Hand Bank will have a board of directors of like seven people. Then BCCI has seven people. And like three of the seven from...
26:21 Nugent Han is on BCCI and ditto back to the other way. And then you'll throw in Castle Bank and then four of them will be on Castle Bank and the other four in Castle Bank will be on the BCCI. So it's kind of like musical chairs being in charge of these CIA fake banks that they're using to money launder. And unfortunately, there's a shitload of retired general officers on these banks.
26:50 That was dumbfounding to me. And as this author accurately points out, most of these general officers were involved in these bullshit opium guarding wars like the Vietnam War that was created and maintained for such a long time, like in Afghanistan, for the simple purpose of the CIA to drug smuggle.
27:18 And so the drug smuggling, money laundering banks have these same crooks on them. So again, what that person, what this author just said is absolutely true based on everything that we found in Operation Gladio. Moving on. Casolaro was scheduled to meet with the members of the Australian Royal and Causagen commissions, which were investigating drug related corruption in Australia, including Nugent Hand Bank.
27:48 and uncovered damning evidence that Casolaro would have obtained. After his visit to Australia, Danny was planning to meet with the CIA operative Edwin Wilson at his prison cell in Philadelphia. I'll explain Edwin Wilson in just a minute. After being convicted for illegal arms smuggling to Libya,
28:15 that had been financed with $22 million on a line of credit from none other than Nugent Hand Bank. Wilson and Nugent Hand Bank founder Mike Hand were involved in arms smuggling to the CIA-backed rebels in Angola, which of course is what I just told you. Now, let's spend a minute on Edwin Wilson just as a reminder for you guys.
28:43 Because Edwin Wilson is a very interesting Operation Gladio guy. He worked both for the CIA and the Office of Naval Intelligence. And a long time ago in one of our videos, when we were doing book reviews, we talked about the Navy having set up kind of a parallel CIA inside of the Navy.
29:12 And I'm looking for the number. It was called like Task Force 147, something to that effect. And that allowed, oh, right here, Task Force 157. That's close. Yes. So basically what that was is it gave the Navy, which had not had this capability.
29:43 before, Admiral Bobby Inman, who was the director of Naval Intelligence, had set this up and given basically the NCIS kind of capability, the intel segments of the Navy, the authority to create fake companies, and basically had hired, whether he knew he was CIA or not, I don't know,
30:10 hired Wilson to run these fake companies. And the beauty of doing that was for Wilson, he got to keep the profits and was basically arm smuggling as an official representative of the U.S. government. And what's interesting about that is that you
30:40 You're at the mercy of the CIA because as soon as you misstep, they will arrest you and pin you as being an international arms dealer, which is in fact what they did. And it was unclear to me what he actually did to piss them off to actually get arrested because he was working on their behalf. And let me read this one quote. Wilson was on the CIA's payroll and doing the agency's bidding.
31:08 All the time he was employed by one of the largest labor unions in the United States as its international representative in Europe. He served as the advance man for who? Hubert Humphrey in the 1964 campaign, thus playing an active partisan role while being employed by the CIA. So we have to.
31:36 make sure that we understand one thing very, very clearly. That whether it's a labor union, whether it's an international syndicate, business, whatever, the CIA is everywhere. They are involved in all of this shit. So there's a whole lot more about Wilson. We could do a whole show just on Wilson. The guy's crazy.
32:06 So back to the story. So Danny's planning on meeting CIA operative Edwin Wilson at his jail cell. Casolaro additionally had planned to visit Laos and Burma to further uncover the CIA support for drug trafficking out of the Golden Triangle. Taking forward the story told in Alfred McCoy's landmark 1972 book.
32:34 called The Politics of Heroin in Southeast Asia. I just bought that book. I haven't read it yet. At the time of his murder, as was confirmed by his best friend, Ben Mason, Casolaro had in his briefcase copies of two checks, one for a million dollars and the other one for $4 million. From the Kuwaiti royal family to Iran-Contra criminal arms dealer, Aiden Khashoggi and...
33:04 Manneker Gorbonifer. And that guy's Iranian, if I remember correctly. Let me look him up real quick. Because Aiden Shikogi was, Khashoggi was, yep, Iranian arms dealer. Damn, I've done this for too long now. This is getting pathetic. All right. So Manneker Gorbonifer is an Iranian.
33:35 Iranian arms dealer that was basically receiving all of the arms and making all of the arms deals for the Iran-Contra. So he was dealing specifically directly with Israel. And the Kuwaiti royal family was basically cutting the check and writing and financing a whole bunch of the arms deals for the Iran-Contra deal.
34:05 Aidan Khashoggi was in the middle and he also obviously an international arms dealer. The two of them was working supposedly with Lebanon to get U.S. prisoners that had been kidnapped by the Lebanese terrorists freed because supposedly they were being paid by Iran. So they were going to give Iran some weapons.
34:34 we were going to get some of the hostages back, but they were doing it using the Contras down in Central America as the cutout. So it didn't look like Reagan was doing a direct, basically paying with arms to get our hostages out. So it was all just smoke and mirrors and all bullshit, but he had proof.
35:00 that the Kuwaiti royal family was in the middle of that. And that is a very little known tidbit. I had read that before, but I had only ever seen it in one other place, which would be huge if you look at the fact that we end up, the whole Iraq war was based on the fact that Kuwait,
35:30 had struck a deal to do the uh diagonal drilling into an oil field in iraq and they used that as basically the false flag to start the entire iraq war so you see how all of that plays in it was the kuwaiti royal family and their ambassador's daughter that lied about the whole incubator thing so all of this is tied together all of our war time
35:57 is tied to this Octopus slash Operation Gladio bullshit. So, these two, Aiden Khashoggi and Gorbanifar, had been, the checks to these guys from the royal family had been drawn on the Monte Carlo branch of the BCCI bank.
36:29 and they were to specifically purchase tow missiles by Hezbollah. These two checks were transferred by a guy by the name of Robert Sensi, S-E-N-C-I, excuse me, S-I, S-E-N-S-I, who worked directly for the CIA director, William Casey. The profits from the sale
36:57 were to be used to purchase arms to be illegally sent to the Contras in violation of the Boland Amendment. Casolaro had amassed further proof of a CIA-backed coup in Australia targeting Prime Minister Gal Whitlam, which we've talked about as well, who had opposed the U.S. war in Vietnam and was trying to remove a secret U.S. spy base called Pine Gap.
37:26 That was one of those satellite tracking, not unlike the one that we just talked about in the Pacific Ocean, just off the coast of Australia, by the way. So apparently you're not allowed to not want to spy for the CIA. And if you do, you're going to get cooed, right? Because remember the story about the Seychelles? That's exactly what happened to that guy. They tried to coo him a couple of times.
37:55 Because he didn't want the satellite tracking for the CIA and the U.S. government on his island. And it also was used to spy on Australian civilians because of bye-byes. So the CIA collected the information being these tracking stations on the civilians in Australia.
38:27 Australia was able to get it because the CIA had collected it. Casolaro additionally had evidence of CIA involvement in the bombing of Pan Am 103, which is the Lockerbie over Scotland that Libya got accused of doing, because it supposedly was undertaken to keep secret a CIA drug smuggling network ran by Ted Shackley out of Lebanon.
38:58 And just that you guys know, that had to do with some crazy coded suitcase thing that they had these young Libyans who thought they were transporting important classified documents, not drugs. I've seen two of the people interviewed that was arrested for this.
39:26 Or charged for it. Sorry, they didn't extradite him. Muammar Gaddafi wouldn't let him extradite him. So they were charged and they were tried in absentee. They are saying that what they were told was basically they were transiting like in briefcase type suitcases. What they thought.
39:49 was classified type information. And they would take it on an airplane from like Lebanon or Libya and take it to Europe. And then from Europe, it'd be flown into the United States. However, like every second one or every third one actually had a crap ton of drugs in them. And there was some way of passing them off through security that they had figured out.
40:18 And the last guy in the loop got the suitcase after he had already cleared the luggage area. And they knew based on some ribbon on it or something that it was to be sent through because they had already bought baggage handlers and all that other stuff to make this network work. So the whole thing was a setup. In sum, Hanson and Trias.
40:47 claimed that Casolano had concluded that he had been in effect manipulated and basically lied to by all of these people and that he had been chasing a phantom, which is completely false. As far as Casolano having committed suicide, this theory is contradicted by the fact that both the Casolano's forearms were slashed so deeply and so many times that the tendons of both of his arms were severed, making it
41:16 impossible for him to have held the razor to do the second one. Moreover, there were conspicuous bruises on his arms and head that had never been accounted for and signs that an assailant had tried to asphyxiate him by placing a plastic bag over his head. Three of the Casolaro's fingernails were missing and a housekeeper saw two bloody towels in his room indicating the blood had been cleaned up by someone.
41:45 A still confidential source asserted that Casolaro had alcohol absolute in his system that had been injected into his spine to deaden the nerves below his head. An unnamed Sheraton hotel maid told the Martinsburg police that she had saw a man leaving Casolaro's room that morning.
42:15 whom she said was definitely not Danny Casolaro. Now, let me just tell you something, because I have not read this part right here. Do you know that is exactly what they did to all of the Jonestown people? They injected just below their head at the top of their spine. Every single one of them had an injection into their back.
42:47 Holy shit, I just got chills. That's freaking crazy. Down to the very sports clothes the maid said that the man was wearing, that man closely resembled a guy by the name of Major Joseph Cuellar, C-U-E-L-L-A-R, who was a CIA and Special Forces operative who worked at Business Risk International.
43:19 a private security company that was a CIA front. Collier was seen there in Martinsburg with Casolaro the weekend of his murder. Rather than trying to definitively solve his murder, the ultimate aim of the Netflix series was basically to characterize the whistleblowers as conspiracy theorists and to tell us once and for all.
43:47 that Danny Casolaro had committed suicide. In 1967, the CIA issued a secret memo to its army of media assets entitled Countering Criticism of the Warren Report, which recommended slandering as conspiracy theorist anyone who reported the Warren Report's false conclusion that Oswald was a lone gunman. Whether intentionally or not,
44:17 Trietz and Hansen's documentary follows the CIA memo to a T as far as labeling these people conspiracy theorists. Instead of generating outrage at the criminals who committed unlawful acts in the guise of national security, they basically try to make you feel sorry for believing in, make people feel sorry for these people for believing in quote unquote conspiracies.
44:45 even though they were victims of the criminals Casolaro was exposing. Hamilton is made out to be particularly duplicitous because of questions posed by Hansen about one of Hamilton's sources, when most of his sources had already been proven reliable, and his overall claims authenticated in federal court documents, stating explicitly
45:13 that Hamilton had been defrauded in a massive criminal scheme. Elliot Richardson, Richard Nixon's former attorney, took on Hamilton's case after reaching the conclusion that he, in fact, had had all of the promised software stolen from him. Richardson's comments show that they were being, the people who made this Netflix thing, were being very reckless.
45:42 and irresponsible with jumping to the conclusion that Casolaro had committed suicide as basically a way of covering up a crime. Peter Osborne, who was a former science advisor in the Australian government, who began following the trail of octopus, so to speak, when his encrypted business venture established with the
46:09 Australian government in United Nations was destroyed under the CIA Operation Stillpoint because it operated outside of CIA control. And remember, the CIA had already bought the company Crypto AG and they were using that. So this guy created an encryption device as well, but the CIA basically destroyed his operation.
46:38 Because they wouldn't have control of it. All right. Osborne would tell the author of this article that they deliberately withheld exposing their knowledge of the credible and independent evidence, claiming that they had never seen it. Osborne also said that his website offering extensive documentation that backed up and expanded on Casolaro.
47:09 had found came out more than two years before the film, but was never mentioned, even though Hansen had sent him an email in July claiming that he was curious about what he had discovered. So, I mean, as far as I'm concerned at this point, it's probably safe to conclude that this Netflix thing is just another CIA operation. Hansen had pleaded with him to have access to all of his thousands of recorded interviews.
47:35 with many key witnesses and his recovered official CIA documentation confirming the technical teams that were involved in exploiting and modifying Promise software that had been sold to the Australian government and to foreign intel sources. Osborne said in early 2002, Hansen and Tritts were totally aware that I...
48:03 had already posted on my website all my credible and independent research investigations and legal evidence before they continued to release their Netflix series. According to Osborne, the scene involving Ms. Giacinto was a setup. Ms. Giacinto was clearly told to state those lines. Her husband had worked for the CIA, and Aetna, the company she worked for, was associated with the John Hopkins School of Medicine, which...
48:32 provided a cover for U.S. clandestine operations. Osborne said that the two producers did not have the professional technical qualifications to understand the CIA's need to modify promised software for tracking nuclear submarines and covert SWIFT banking transactions. Part of the film's bias is its reliance on commentary from a person by the name of Ann Klink.
49:00 K-L-E-N-K, who has a clear conflict of interest because she worked for Dr. Earl Bryan, who was a Reagan administration official whose company was involved in the Promise software theft. Clank was a producer for the Jack Anderson show on Financial News Network, which was owned by Bryan.
49:30 According to Ben Mason, who Osborne interviewed, when Danny died, Klink went to his house and seized his documents, which he had no authority to do. Klink kept hidden what was disclosed in those documents, whose content would undercut the very basis of the Netflix series. Besides the omission about Klink, Hansen admits that the fact that in
50:00 Martinsburg, BCCI attorney Robert Altman had reluctantly agreed to meet Casolaro, who was threatening to give the checks from the Kuwaiti royal family to purchase the tow missiles to Senate investigation led by John Kerry, along with the two folders of documents exposing the Pentagon fraud involving Hughes aircraft. These facts undermine the Netflix.
50:30 stories as well so um because basically they tried to say that he had reached a dead end he was frustrated he was depressed and blah blah blah which in fact if he hadn't yet met um robert altman he obviously wasn't um uh at a dead end and just so that you know um robert altman
51:01 I've come across him repeatedly. So he is a big, big deal. And I was shocked when I first read that he actually had agreed to meet with him because if you remember some of the past stories that we've told, one of the big players in all of this is a guy by the name of Clark Clifford.
51:30 who was basically the sec def. And Altman and Clark Clifford was in a law practice together. And Clark Clifford was in the whole story that we just told about the election in 1968 because he was a political advisor to Lyndon B. Johnson. He was all tied up in LBJ's criminality.
51:59 He was on the president's intelligence advisory board for LBJ when all of the criminality was happening while he was president. And the fact that that guy was in the leadership of the BCCI bank, basically it tells you everything. Every piece of this is all tied together.
52:28 It's quite amazing. Every story, you get back to all of the same players. So let me back up just one second because there was one other thing. So the other thing I want to tell you about Altman. So Altman would have known everything about BCCI, their money laundering, their weapon sales, the fact that it was funded by Saudi money. And back then, most of that was not known.
52:57 Altman was also involved in video game development. He was involved in media. And there was a company called Zeni Max Media. He became the CEO and was chairman of that. So, yeah, he was a big deal in this whole scam. So if he was going to talk to Danny Casolaro, yeah, that that explains a lot.
53:27 of him getting assassinated because there's no way they could have afforded Robert Altman having a conversation with Danny Casolaro. That would have been a no-go. So anyway, that gets us kind of wrapped up on that storyline.
53:57 But I wanted to kind of tie all those pieces together because it kind of starts with 1968 and another assassination of a priest over in Vietnam. And of course, we know the whole reason Johnson, one of the reasons of many that he dropped out was how bad the war was going. And then it kind of brings us full circle back to Clark Clifford and the Johnson administration again being.
54:26 you know, wrapped up with the same players that Danny Casolaro was investigating. And at this point, I think it's unequivocal that Danny was investigating Operation Gladio firsthand as it was unfolding. So do we have anybody that has questions?
54:58 Just ask for a mic. Bridget, Cousin It, y'all have anything you want to add? I think we had a couple of hands raised. Give them a couple of minutes. No, go ahead. If somebody has a hand raised. EIC. Colonel Towner. Hi. I apologize. I had some Wi-Fi connection interference halfway through. But last time I was listening to you.
55:38 I didn't want to interrupt you, and I didn't want to make it about me or anything like that, but I wanted you to know that when President Trump built True Social, okay, he built that platform, and he invited everybody to get on that platform. I just knew I had to support President Trump, and I had to get on that platform, but I didn't know.
56:09 what else to do and i was really humbling myself to the lord jesus christ god the most high god and i said lord if i'm going to be here what do i call it the lord said i want you to call it glad again that was it so and here we are talking about gladio and the similarities of this operation
56:47 And so I'm just highly impressed, Colonel Downer. Thank you for your service, ma'am. You're welcome. Thank you for being here. So I don't know if anybody's waiting. I've got storms moving through, so my phone's glitching again. Big shock. One of the things Bridget and I had been talking about with Truth Social, Truth Social is an awesome platform. It is. I always looked at it as the holding pen.
57:20 Because most of us were banned from being here at one point. And that to me is holding pen. That's the discussion. Those are the people that sort of think along the same lines. This is the battlefield. This is where we get our voice out and heard. And respectful, I'm remembering. You know, both platforms have access.
57:54 opportunities to meet people with like-binds. Everywhere you go, it's an experience. But you have found here, you have found the front lines of the battlefield. Because we are going to expose all of them. And they're not going to like it. So that's... Anybody else find it pretty creepy that the same kill method was used in Jonestown?
58:23 as it was on Castellaro, that's a signature move. So now we have to find out who decided that was a good idea. I agree. But it's another pattern that we've come to appreciate. Yes, ma'am. Pattern recognition and, oh, what was the other thing? Anyways, is that a coincidence?
59:01 Yeah, there's no such thing as coincidence, right? All right. No, ma'am. Yeah. All right, Zama, what you got? Howdy, girl. How's it going? Great. Can you hear me? Yes, I can hear you fine. Great. Yeah, this is all new, so I'm sort of catching up on all your links and reading here and finding it fascinating because I heard about the Netflix.
59:32 series i think it's a series or is it documentary it's like there was like three or four different um uh series so it's a series and there was like three or four um in the series um and and they basically did a good job and i had read this multiple places this is the most objective um critique that i had seen of it um that actually kind of portrayed the entire story
1:00:01 and showed where they went offline and it was not until the very last one that they kind of pulled the rug out from because everybody was watching it going oh my gosh they're going to tell us you know that he really didn't commit suicide and they're going to finally validate the fact that he was murdered and then hell no they went right back to the cia talking points you know he's crazy he committed suicide blah blah blah
1:00:27 That's interesting. And I haven't seen it, so I really want to catch up on that. Because if there's anything that I think your spaces are doing a formidable job, it is also part of the importance of correcting the record here. And I think there's a lot of cases in which we are seeing these kind of very slick documentaries going back on a lot of...
1:00:55 what we are defining Gladio related or connected events, operations, or, you know, sort of connected historical points. And I think it's really important to sort of make sure that those omissions get called out. Because often the power of those media are so sort of compelling in the way that documentaries can be made and sort of...
1:01:22 really sway the public opinion to think a certain way. And maybe it's a side note, I've been sort of down a little bit of a rabbit hole on the whole topic of predictive programming, which I think is kind of related and interesting. It absolutely is related. Yeah, no, and it's something that caught my attention. I got fascinated to start with the whole history of Ian Fleming, which I'm sure you know of, because he was deeply related with
1:01:52 the Office of Naval Intelligence in World War II, the early OSS, and all of the characters of basically post-World War II, sort of the setup of the OSS especially. And then when he sort of retired to Jamaica and set off to write his Bond novels, I find it fascinating that he has, there's a lot of interesting sort of
1:02:21 drops of information that he leaves in there um and and one of them is as probably people are familiar with the films as you know bond kind of often um and again make i'll make a disclaimer let's let's separate fact from fiction but it's interesting to know his history uh and what he was involved in and then some of the things he wrote about but bond is is often against an organization called specter right now um specter is this kind of uh octopus
1:02:50 basically, organization. And it actually stands for, in his book, as the Special Executive for Counterintelligence, Terrorism, Revenge, and Extortion. And it's a fictional organization featured on, that basically is led by a whole series of sort of, you know, quintessential Bond bad guys, but that involve...
1:03:14 the Soviet smirch, Nazi, basically old Nazi, you know, renegades, and basically the secret intelligence of the Italian mafia, the French Corsican mafia, and Turkish heroin smuggling operations. So you kind of have all of these organizations who in the fiction, it's kind of, you know, they're all the quintessential bad guys.
1:03:42 But look at what we've been sort of talking about in so many of your spaces and how close they are to actually some of the real life figures and organizations and syndicate related operations that we're seeing in the in the in the 60s and 70s. Now, interestingly, one of the last I'll finish on this films that the first Bond.
1:04:13 actor, oh gosh, just had mind blank. What's his name? Who did Dr. No and he did the first Scottish actor. God, I'm just having a mind blank. I know who you're talking about. Oh man, I know it. Sean Connery. You're talking about Sean Connery? Thank you very much. Yeah. Terrible mistake. Anyway, so Sean Connery, his last film was called Never Say Never Again.
1:04:39 And he was brought back as a Bond actor. I think after like 10 years, they didn't do a Bond film since the 70s, which was his last one, which was Thunderbolt. And that film was, again, he's battling the Spectre organization. And interestingly enough, part of it is filmed on a boat called Kingdom 5KR, where Spectre holds all its sort of bad sort of operations from.
1:05:05 now kingdom 5kr is basically was originally named nabila it's an 85 meter super yacht built for saudi billionaire adan kashogi so these things have a way um the fact and the fiction have a way of interloping within each other and i think it's it's just an interesting side note to um sometimes
1:05:29 look at it with, you know, some Gladio glasses when watching these films or looking back at some of the fiction written about this stuff. Because part of the illusion and part of the predictive programming and also part of the PSYOP is also to try and convince people that some of this stuff is just too far-fetched. It's all fiction. It's all, you know, these are all, you know, come on, this is all just the realm of baddies and Hollywood. Of course none of this stuff really happens. Well, you know. Well, and they also...
1:05:59 They also glamorize it. I mean, that's the whole thing. Well, you know, being a spy is glamorous. It's not evil and bad. And when you assassinate someone, when the spy assassinates someone, it's because they're bad. It's predictive programming. And so when you hear the CIA has assassinated someone, you automatically now believe that they were bad.
1:06:25 And the CIA gives you the propaganda by calling them a communist. So you have all of it leaped on together. And that's a very good kind of tie in to how this entire operation works. That's the way they've been allowed to propagandize us for so long into accepting their evilness.
1:06:53 Totally, totally, exactly. And I think part of the criminality which they're able to get away with, and perhaps there may be people who are sort of historically sort of interesting in analyzing these things and maybe try and make a distinction between what's legit intelligence operations and where does it venture into sort of completely rogue and criminal networking that we're seeing time and time again.
1:07:17 um is is exactly this is that they sort of they easily put the like oh look it's the bad guys doing all of this stuff you know these are the it's the communists it's the it's these guys it's those guys right and then that all gets portrayed in in in the in the media afterwards right or in the sort of the whitewashing or the films or you know the documentaries that are made afterwards or yeah so so i think it's it's it's important to sort of definitely analyze and highlight the the media side to
1:07:45 to um some of these operations and how that works but yeah thanks thanks a lot for that i think i'll definitely look into um yeah i want to see this netflix series and and look more into the the kind of um the octopus murder intrigues in detail because i think it's such an interesting part of this whole right exactly i do too go ahead bridget okay version of the predictive programming might be a good thing to do a space on one day because i know
1:08:28 There were documented, they had an entire wing of the government that was created for the whole getting the public to go into, I think it was World War II, and their whole to work with Hollywood newspapers, and they would actually write out newspaper articles, distribute them to the major news. This goes against the very basics.
1:09:12 the First Amendment right, and that there are, that newspapers are no longer reporting facts, but they are being fed a dialogue. This was openly accepted as something they could do to swing the public's opinion on anything. But anyway, my opinion, the predictive programming, because it has been so well documented within our government, it would blow your mind.
1:09:57 how long it's been going on, truly. But anyway. Yeah. If I could just chime in. Sorry, just to read from that, because, Bridget, I think you're absolutely right. And on my deep dive, I came across a character that perhaps some of you have come across, Paul Linebarger, a.k.a. Cord Wainer Smith, born in 1913. His pen name was Cord Wainer Smith. He was a writer as well of science fiction.
1:10:28 but he was also a u.s army officer in east asia um right around that time of of all um uh colonel you were you were talking about the the post-world war one um uh um what was it these sort of army training camps and and all of that civilian training yeah yeah so he was part of that sort of generation uh at least but he grew up in east asia um basically
1:10:59 befriended the nationalist Sun Yat-sen, Chinese nationalist, to whom he became an advisor. And so became an East Asian specialist. Leinberger is basically the godfather of psychological operations. As we know today, his book on psychological operations is called that, is still, I think, a kind of known classic. He taught psychological operations in the 30s and 40s.
1:11:29 And he's a fascinating character to look into, not into only his life. He was also very open about what he did because eventually I think he was teaching in John Hopkins in the 30s, all the way up to the 60s. Again, wrote science fiction, which is very interesting to look again, the sort of bridge between fiction and thing. And one of the things he interestingly used to tell his students was that,
1:11:58 The 101 of Psychological Operations used to give them all a book called The Big Con. Now, The Big Con was a book written in the 40s, and it was all about tricksters, con men. In the 40s in America, con men and trickster artists were a kind of big thing in cities. And they were able to create these elaborate cons. And basically, there was sort of between illusion men and con artists, basically.
1:12:28 And that book got turned into a famous film called The Sting. And it was starring Robert Redford and Paul Newman. If anyone's seen it, 60s film. But Lineberger basically said, anything you want to know about psychological operations, you learn reading that book, The Conman. Because it is all about illusion and the creation of illusion in the way to sort of how to be able to pull off.
1:12:54 one of these operations anyway i'll leave that there because i think it's just he's a fascinating character to look into and i think that's the sort of root of then what then develops into a much bigger broader field of everything to do with predictive programming psychological operations and then much more sort of nefarious mk ultra sort of style programming that that we're seeing right
1:13:24 it was the committee on public information that was created by woodrow wilson in 1917. right that gives you an idea how long it was that they've been doing that right go ahead cousinette um there's a gentleman that is here on x and truth social as well by the name of mr truth bomb and i've posted it in the billboard his rumble channel and he has
1:13:54 absolutely phenomenal pieces on predictive programming in particular, and some historical information that we've also reviewed. And it connects everything in a very entertaining way. So yeah, we are aware of the predictive programming part.
1:14:18 As a matter of fact, I've been trying to convince Mr. Truthbaum to come in onto our spaces at some point because we do acknowledge that there is a huge piece of this puzzle that does have to do with predictive programming and MKUltra. You know, there is an overlap, we know that, but we want to get people who are actually focusing in on that field to speak about it rather than to just...
1:14:44 big shot in the dark but as far as um what's going on right now so you want to pull that into today they're already trying to rewrite history and the perfect example now today is how kamala harris was never the border czar she was never in charge of programs that we know she was
1:15:07 She didn't want to defund the police. She was never the most liberal senator. They are doing that now. They're deleting articles. So everybody stay on your toes because at some point you're going to have a deja vu moment, and this is where the Wayback Machine is going to be extremely helpful because you need to call these people out. They are absolutely erasing history.
1:15:36 right before your eyes. So it's not even looking back into history and saying, oh, look, they did it then, and now we're being bullshitted now about something that happened in World War II. They're doing it right this second, and it's baby steps. That's how they did it in World War II, because you can't just disappear a whole thing. You've got to incrementally make people think that they are losing their minds, and they're doing that right now today.
1:16:04 So get your Wayback Machine out. Get your archives out. Get ready to call these people out. You guys are the front line. We are the warriors. And we are not going to let them get away with this bullshit that they've done for over 100 years. Right? Think about it. Over 100 years they've been brainwashing and bullshitting us. I don't know about anybody else, but I've had enough. So that's all I have to say. Miles, go ahead.
1:16:35 Good afternoon, Colonel. We were doing a front porch this morning and a gentleman popped in and he was talking. He gave us a quick synopsis about Kamala, which was kind of funny, but very informative. But then he went and he said, oh, by the way, there's been three coups, coup d'etats in the United States since Johnson. And I was like, oh, you know, since Kennedy, right?
1:17:02 So I let him go on and he did a really good analysis. And I said, have you been following the colonel and listen to Operation Gladio? And he goes, no, I don't know what that is. Because it was like, I thought he was actually listening to us. But yeah, it was a really good synopsis of all the things that have gone on politically in the country from that point. So I just let him go on.
1:17:29 And I just want to congratulate everybody in the space here that you've made it this far in the most psychological event in world history. They've tried to break your minds. They've tried to kill you. And we're still here. So I just want to congratulate everybody. Thanks a lot, Colonel. Sure. But Miles, I would argue they did four of them during Trump's first.
1:17:55 administration so i don't i don't my numbers don't add up with him i'm glad he's on to the yeah he didn't go up that far yeah no he just i think it went up to clinton yeah yeah it is very interesting um but yeah i'm glad he's on to him though that's a that's a great sign and thank you for um bringing my name up i appreciate that um the new yorker what you got
1:18:26 All right. OK, yeah. Just based on some earlier comments, especially the one that speaker earlier who was talking about the interface between so-called fiction and so-called nonfiction in terms of CIA propaganda. I actually am a former high school history teacher here in New York City. OK, so I witnessed when Republican mayor who is now a Democrat.
1:18:55 Mayor Michael Bloomberg completely rebuilt the New York City Department of Education before he, you know, became czar of the 2020 DNC primaries and basically exterminated them. If you recall on Super Tuesday when he came in and he was originally wanted to be the nominee nominee with his money. But then he engineered like cave in for Joe Biden night where.
1:19:24 All of the candidates lined up behind Biden except for Bernie and then Bernie, which in my opinion was also a fake campaign, a fake left campaign, because hello, RFK assassination, Jesse Jackson. We've seen this stuff before. It's a tactic. So one of the things that relates to the New York City Board of Ed, in one of my last years teaching there, this Marvel Black Panther movie came out, God Help Us.
1:19:53 OK, and the reason I say that is because our entire school on tax times was taken to see the Marvel Black Panther movie. And if you're at all familiar with the movie, basically, it's a it is fiction. But it again, it it's very the fictional town of a place of Katanga is very similar to I'm sorry, Wakanda is very similar to.
1:20:22 katanga in congo where there was a direct genocide of six million people as a direct result of the coup d'etat in dallas texas in november of 1963 okay and so what do you know these kids are not going to hear anything about that the congo genocide of six million nice round number
1:20:49 And you will notice that the Democrats never say a single word about it. Right. Well, we've talked pretty nonstop about the Congo here and their assassination of Lumumba and cutting them up and boiling them in acid and the whole nine yards and how all of that was CIA. And it was they called in Otto Skorzeny as the planner for the entire operation.
1:21:15 including the kidnapping. So we're very aware of what's been going on over in there. Yeah. Well, then let me just put it back to the Black Panther Marvel movie, which, you know, it makes it seem like the CIA is the hero in this movie about Katanga. And this is something that is going to, hundreds of millions of people worldwide are going to see this. And what tiny percentage of a 1% is going to ever read anything or know anything?
1:21:44 about what actually happened in congo in katanga again as a direct result of the coup in dallas so it's it's so interesting to me that you know the way fiction is being manipulated to also as a propaganda device for the cia reaching huge numbers and also um it relates to another side theme i'll just try to make this quicker is
1:22:12 One of the things I've noticed about what I call the fake left or controlled left, and I kind of distinguish it from pre-1980 quote-unquote left, is that after 1980, the writings in the left about the national security state slash CIA became virtually forbidden. And what that resulted in was...
1:22:41 The so-called left or academic left, which I find is best kept in quotes, will do social history, but they stop doing national security state or political history. And so you get the situation where like, OK, they claim to be against racism. Yet here, when racism directly interfaces with the political change, namely the CIA coup in Dallas, Texas.
1:23:11 that impacts every single classroom in the United States, they will go nowhere near it and not even mention the word genocide because it's too close to Dallas. In other words, it's getting political history connected to the social history. They only do social history now because they're controlled left. And you've talked about earlier how a CIA created such a situation.
1:23:41 anyway the marvel movie is an amazing example it impacts huge numbers and it's really really disturbing how you know propaganda can get so widespread on something so important as a genocide like this so thank you for bringing it up i do not watch movies and so most of that stuff is a area that i don't touch on um so where
1:24:03 You see those analogies. I appreciate you sharing that with the audience because it's not an expertise that I have. And you're right. I will also tell you that there are a number of video games that do exactly what you just described. It is programming children either through these.
1:24:29 comic type movies or these video games into a fake history. And someone, I'm going to see if I can pull it up here real quick. Somebody sent me, it's called Far Cry. Again, I don't do movies or video games either. So I was asking my daughter about that because that's kind of her forte.
1:24:54 And she also edits a lot of the stuff that I write. So she stays up on all of the stuff going on. And they said Far Cry 2 is an analogy to the Congo and the Far East, slave trade, gun running, and also touches on Golden Lily. It touches on North Korea, China, Pakistan, Jim Jones and Koresh. And that it's basically softening.
1:25:23 the evilness that the CIA does. And since we know the CIA controls Hollywood, they control the music industries, you can imagine that it is the CIA also doing these movies and doing the videos in a predictive programming way in order to glamorize their own bullshit in the minds of younger generations.
1:25:52 So I agree with you 100 percent. And I'm I'm glad you brought that up. And I encourage anybody that knows of movies like what we found in the Seven Days in May movie, because, again, it's they even this this really just crazy drove me crazy. So in the Seven Days in May, which I do have lined up to watch from Amazon, that.
1:26:21 You guys know my big nemesis is this Lyman Lemonsker general that authored Operation Northwood to kill a whole bunch of Americans just so we could invade Cuba. They even, in the plot of this movie, in the characters, name one of the good guys, the president, Jordan Lyman. They use that SOB's name in the movie.
1:26:52 As a good guy. So that's how far they will go in trying to predictably program you. So you're going to walk away from this movie where Lyman Lemonsker is actually portrayed in here as an evil bastard. They just used a different name for him and used his name for the good guy. That's how evil these people are. Go ahead, Bridget.
1:27:24 Absolutely right on. And one of the biggest things, and part of the reason why we started researching was, you know, we have had to go back and reevaluate everything we've learned up to this point. Because so much of it that was given to us in fact, and especially, you know this more than anyone, in our history book, we were always supposed to memorize dates.
1:27:56 But we were never pushed to actually dig into what actually happened. And that's because the winners wrote those. And they were propagandizing us from very young. And one of the things the colonel brought up that you would really appreciate is, you remember Get Smart? Get Smart had, they were telling what they were doing to us. And we just went right along.
1:28:31 We didn't even see it. There's just been so much that we have had to go back to what we were told. I think you would enjoy some of those. We're all breaking the destroying of the statues. All of this has been an attempt to, again, rewrite our history. Not a coincidence. I also wanted to apologize to Jeff. It was me that accidentally threw you out of here last night.
1:29:27 Yesterday in the space, it was my fat fingers. I tried to get you back in, and I apologize for that. It could have been me, too. It could have been me, too, because everybody was just trying to block her at once. Okay, go, Jeff. I don't remember. Maybe I zipped out or something. There's a lot of glitches on X. But, you know, I quit watching CNN when...
1:30:00 Ted Turner and Jane Fonda purchased that company, and I just decided because of what Jane Fonda did and Vietnam that I was not going to ever watch her show. I did watch Baghdad in 2003 because I guess everybody quit, and they were the only ones that had the incoming hit on Baghdad. But the Central Intelligence Agency and the intelligence...
1:30:28 people have worked closely with the presidency um and i'll just go from h.w bush onward um obama his dad step daddy and of course the clintons were given the pablo escobar situation and the oliver north situation as well and um they're all connected and then of course barack obama connected joe to it
1:30:57 But the one thing in particular that I had noticed was President Trump was precluded from intelligence reports from what Mike Pompeo had said. So he was out of the loop, which makes him a huge target right now. No, he was not left. No, no, no, no, Jeff. He was not left out of the loop. He didn't want intelligence briefings from the CIA because he knew they were lying to him. OK, I agree with that 100 percent. And that that that's a good that's a good point.
1:31:29 I believe that 100%. But with that being said, this is one of the worst rackets in history. I've seen the KGB and the Chinese under Mao were brutal, brutal people, yeah. There's a lot of brutal people out there, and I'm just so glad, Colonel, that I can...
1:31:54 get all of y'all's notes yours and bridget's and cousin it's notes and compare them to every other notes and my notes and we see the how the game's being played against us but i just i just gave up on on media really to be honest with you since the 80s i just i just quit really watching tv and media especially the news and um i just i just
1:32:21 I knew that they were lying to us. They're lying to us all. Yeah, so I did want to make sure everybody understands. Trump got intel. He got intel from DIA and other sources. He just did not entertain the national intelligence assessments or estimates that the CIA was giving him because he knew that they were lying. Miles, go ahead. Colonel, I'm still working on ideas for merch. Do you want me to reach out to Bridget or Cousin Ed to...
1:32:52 show them my ideas. Sure. You can, you can send them to Bridget. She's been doing most of our media stuff. So. Okay. I'll do that. I think it's important that if we get it done, right. And someone's wearing a t-shirt and they see the t-shirt and it's, it's cool looking, right. We do it right. Then they go, what is that? That's exactly the point. Yes, exactly. What, what is Gladio? And then you can start up that conversation. Absolutely.
1:33:20 I'm still working on it. All right. I appreciate it. So let me also kind of brag here for a second. There's a lady going to, if you guys don't know, there's an upcoming, what they refer to as GART, the Great American Restoration Tour that's put on by Badlands. And as you guys know, I've appeared on several of their shows as a guest. There's a lady that's going to the one in South Dakota.
1:33:48 which I am not going to. And she has put together like 50 of these really cool. Let me send them to Bridget real quick so she can post them out there. Really cool black kind of cool mojo glasses. And she took a white like permanent marker, but like the fancy kind.

But we're going to be respectful and let them do their thing initially. And then we will open it up because a few of them will have to duck out. They weren't able to give us all, you know, they gave us an hour of their time, which I am grateful for them doing so.
1:37:52 I just want to be respectful of that. So if you guys don't get mics right away, just understand that we're kind of honoring their time. So anyway. Yeah, it's also easier for us to go through and get rid of the bots before we start passing out mics. So everybody, we do write down the order in which you all request a mic.
