0:00 Hello, hello, hello. Hey, Stellar. Let me get you a mic. SR71, Bridget. Welcome, Carrie, everybody. Welcome, welcome, welcome. Let me get my rumble thing going and make sure that's up and running. Go ahead, Stellar. Hello, hello.

0:32 So many things that are happening. I hope you're having a wonderful day. Hey, SR and Bridget, and I see Reaper in here. We were talking about you guys earlier. Cool. It was all good, I'm sure. Absolutely, about how this Operation Gladio bullshit and all that, you know, and little games that they've, well, it's not little, these games and mind games that they've been playing.

0:56 And, um, I guess bullish and I were talking yesterday and, you know, that sailor guy, who's the big Bitcoin guys, you know, um, who's really pushing Bitcoin and he's doing all that stuff for it. Well, anyway, you know, he, he's saying that, you know, it's going to get to a million dollars and, you know, he's doing that. And then, you know, we had that space the other night after your space and, you know, Bitcoin maxis come in cause they want people there's, they're trying to pump regular people to get involved as Bitcoin and stuff, which is BS. But, um,

1:26 We were laughing because one of the things that he said was how it was attached to El Salvador. El Salvador pegged their currency on it. And so when Bullish and I were talking, it was like, wait a minute, Gladio Glass is on. Who was in office during that time? President Trump. So they couldn't peg their currency like how the deep state normally does with the Central Reserve Bank.

1:56 with all their stuff. So what's the best thing to attach it to? The CIA Bitcoin. And so we were just talking about that kind of stuff. And we were just like, holy crap, holy crap. I got to tell Colonel Tanner, I think we figured something else out. And when Bitcoin goes down and that, that sailor guy and the company that, you know, he's that, I can't micro, I'll have to find it. I don't remember the name of it.

2:19 But Bullish was just talking about that company just recently and how their ties are with the El Salvador and the Bitcoin. So, Stella, let me stop you for just a second. I was recently at an event and had someone use the line that Bitcoin was used as currency in El Salvador.

2:46 Now, as you're well aware, because we did all of the deep dives into all of these countries, I specifically remembered reading that that was, in fact, not true. It's not true. They pegged their currency to Bitcoin, but not using Bitcoin for the currency. It's the value. Hold on. I don't even think they pegged their currency to it.

3:15 That was what their intent was. But they don't have the infrastructure in order to be able to use it as a currency. So they recognized it as a currency. And I read like four articles that night because I was going to go back and I did. You know, I wasn't going to get up and embarrass him, but I did want to verify the information that I remembered having researched it. And so basically after they.

3:44 announced that it was going to be a currency, not the currency. So all of their government employees, all of their businesses, 99% of them, is all done on the U.S. dollar. The U.S. dollar has always, for the last several decades, been the El Salvador most utilized. They don't even print their own currency anymore. They only have dollars because

4:14 of all of the remittance that comes in from America. If you go to anywhere in El Salvador and try to buy something, you will buy it in dollars. The employees in the government are paid in dollars, not their own currency and not in Bitcoin. And so this one article said that there's a whole bunch of like...

4:44 It looks like an ATM that has the Bitcoin logo. But the guy walked up to it and took a picture of it. The only dispensing currency is U.S. dollars. Yes, exactly. You can't actually use Bitcoin anywhere in El Salvador because they don't have the infrastructure to actually exchange it. They're not using Bitcoin. Actually, there's a big wallet that is used in South America.

5:11 I think it's called Viviant or Vivant. And Stellar is the one that's being used. And it's USDC through the Stellar network, which is pegged to the dollar. And they use that one. Even in Ukraine, they were using Stellar wallets in Ukraine during the Russian stuff. In Africa, Stellar is the...

5:30 currency that they use. No, it's not Bitcoin, but they pegged it to the value of Bitcoin so that, quote unquote, it didn't devaluate it as much. But their currency isn't even used. They use the dollar. They use the dollar, I understand. Yes, but if you look at their currency and stuff, the only reason why it shows any valuation, even though they don't use it. Yeah, they haven't printed their own currency in years.

5:58 Correct. Correct. But they still say that there is a currency and what the currency's value is. Yes, they do everything in U.S. dollars and stuff like that. What I thought was funny is that the Bitcoin guys are going around going, oh, yeah, El Salvador is the model. They already use Bitcoin as currency. And I'm like, no, they don't. No, they use the a lot of them use Stellar, the lobster wallets, the Vivant, Vivant is V-I-V-I-A-N-T. But I'm talking about everyday life.

6:27 These people paint a picture that you can go up to a store with a Bitcoin wallet and use Bitcoin as a currency of exchange, and you cannot. The store on the corner, grocery store, only takes dollars. That's so funny. Even from my understanding, like in Ukraine and stuff like that, you know, they use dollars there too, and Russian money and stuff. Well, they got a lot of our dollars, so why not use it?

6:58 Exactly. But that was the thing that I thought was so funny about the whole stuff when the man was saying that. And I understand how they, because they want to say that there's valuation. They don't use their valuation. They don't print their own money or any of that stuff. It's like Zimbabwe. They didn't have their own currency until just recently. They just revalued and now they have currency again.

7:20 But yeah, they were using this stuff. So a lot of these countries where there's no currencies and stuff, so they'll use the U.S. dollar.

7:28 A lot of them do get into the crypto, but, you know, they'll use other, you know, not Bitcoin. You know, some may have Bitcoin. Who knows? Because everything's done through your digital wallet. So it's not a strain on the infrastructure. But for like the commerce and stuff, yeah, they're using U.S. dollars. They're using, you know, that way. Their banks are using U.S. dollars. They're paid. Everything is paid. But they say that, you know, quote unquote, there is a currency and it is pegged because of the.

7:58 You know, they're using the dollars. And this is where I said this is the biggest joke to me is because, you know, these people are thinking that they're using Bitcoin. These other people think that they have a currency like, you know, we'll just say.

8:11 El Salvadoran pesos. I don't know what their stuff is. I really don't. So we'll just call it a peso. So people are thinking that they're pesos and they have it and their commerce person or their finance person officially did say their currency is pegged to the Bitcoin. And Bitcoin was a lot cheaper back then. So look how much better their currency is doing. But they don't do their currency. Everything's in U.S. dollars. Correct.

8:38 It's just another facade is what I was trying to say. Yeah. Yeah. Pegging your non-existent currency to Bitcoin means exactly what? And their currency, I will never forget this, it looks like colon. I don't know how you say it, but it's C-O-L-O-N. Because every time I look at their currency, I think.

9:07 colon cancer or something like that. Oh, my gosh. I did not know that because Iraq is getting ready to revalue. They're letting it all be known. Even the banks, if you talk to your private banker, if you guys have a private banker, your tellers won't know. But if you have your own banker person or speak to the manager.

9:26 And Iraq is getting ready to revalue. And they're also asking that we bring in our cold storage wallets if we have XRPs, because in Japan they are doing they're going to be doing a buyback on our XRPs. It's now confirmed. All right. So let's get with our lesson. If everybody will repost a space and then we're going to open it up for conversation when we get done with the chapter 29. It's not a long chapter in.

9:56 Keep in mind that this is Wednesday night, so I will be breaking early. So we're just going to do one chapter. And this chapter is a very important one in the overall story because this deals with the company called EATSCO, E-A-T-S-C-O. So it starts off saying that a public servant just doing his job can shake our government up all the way to the White House. An employee of a company.

10:26 called Federal Maritime Commission, named S. Thomas Romeo, did just that. He was a bureaucrat who was doing an audit of Itzco and uncovered massive overcharging. In 1981, the Federal Maritime Commission notified the Egyptian embassy, along with the Department of Defense, of its investigation audit.

10:55 It was, let's see, it was that notification that caused the Sadat regime to launch its own investigation, which was canceled after Sadat's death. And Mubarak, his assassination actually, Mubarak's subsequent elevation to presidency because he's basically there at the behest of the CIA. For Romero,

11:25 And his colleagues, it was just a regular routine audit. They do them every day. He had no idea that key Egyptian embassy military officers were part of ITSCO. He also had no idea that the men he was about to set his sights on were valuable to the Reagan-Bush administration and that their prosecution would not be allowed.

11:53 The professionals at the CIA who handled the settlement successfully covered up all of the nastiness that the case revealed. The men who led the cover up was the chief of that group was called Theodore Greenberg. He was an assistant U.S. attorney in Alexandria, Virginia. He had been.

12:19 And Bridget, if you could look him up and post what you find on him. Theodore Greenberg, and you spell his last name G-R-E-E-N-B-E-R-G. He had been with the Justice Department for seven years when at the age of 33, he was brought into the Edwin Wilson investigation to work with the prosecutors Larry Barsala and Carol Bruce. Greenberg was by all accounts.

12:47 a great prosecutor. Ironically, while Larry Barcella lost his case against Wilson in the D.C. Circuit, Greenberg succeeded in Virginia. But it was Greenberg's role in the investigation and subsequent cover-up by the Reagan administration that helped assure his rise in the Justice Department. Greenberg became the department specialist at getting convictions of criminals who had secrets.

13:17 without revealing the secrets or the fact that they're tied to the CIA. Judge Stanley Sporkin, S-P-O-R-K-I-N, who at the time of the Eatsco probe was the CIA's general counsel, said that Greenberg had a great relationship with the CIA. In February 1982, the two officials from the IG's office of the FBI...

13:47 had lunch with Tom Clines at a restaurant in suburban Virginia. In their report they filed after the luncheon, they speculated that Clines had been using a concealed tape recorder. Clines had repeatedly lied to the investigators about his contact with both Wilson and Shackley. The investigators already understood that the probe into the activities of Clines, Secord, Shackley, and von Marbog went far beyond anything that Ed Wilson

14:17 had anything to do with. What the investigators found put von Marburg, Klein, and Shackley in the middle of an enormous criminal enterprise dealing with the new president that the CIA installed in Egypt. It did not take the FBI long to trace the financial history of Eatsco or to learn that a company called Arcadia Limited was one of Wilson's companies.

14:46 The FBI traced the $500,000 in Arcadia loans to International Research and Trade, IRT, the company Shackley and Klein set up in Bermuda. In mid-August 1981, Klein's made two $500,000 loans from ETSCO to IRT about a week apart. On August 20th, IRT paid Arcadia back with a transfer.

15:16 of $499,934.63. At the same time, Clines arrived in Geneva and was given a release on the original Wilson loan when he finally paid him off. In January 1982, Clines officially severed his business relationship with Eatsco, selling his shares to his Egyptian partner, and remember the name of that company was called T.E.R.

15:47 S-A-M, Ter Sam. And he sold it for more than $2 million. Clines told the FBI that Eatsco had been used for intelligence cover for the United States Air Force. Don't you love how they always pin it on the military? It definitely is a pattern in this book. Clines cited a $5 million check, excuse me, to Eatsco as reimbursement for services.

16:20 The FBI concluded that the check was for ETSCO transportation of trucks and Jeeps that came from a special fund. On September 22, 1982, Lieutenant Colonel Carlos Salinas provided the FBI with classified material that Army intelligence had on ETSCO, including the information that just days before Sadat was assassinated,

16:47 News of how Isco had corrupted the Egyptian top military officials had reached the Pentagon. Von Marbog always seemed invincible. From 1978 to 1981, he managed the Defense Security Assistance Administration as its deputy director. Three months before Sadat's assassination, Von Marbog was promoted to director of the Defense Security Assistance.

17:18 He had the reputation of being a courageous and imaginative government official. He had personally supervised much of the U.S. retreat from South Vietnam when the Saigon government fell. He had gotten Iran's deputy minister of defense to give him the power of attorney over all of the weapons deals with the Shah. And he also signed over the authority just as the Shah was leaving. So even in the new government,

17:50 he was still making a lot of those deals. This gave President Carter some leverage over the revolutionary regime, but more of the Reagan administration. Von Marburg had friends in high places. He was cautious and very smooth in social settings. And he never forgot to give a thank you note for any event.

18:21 Up until the time Secord introduced him to Edwin Wilson in Laos in the 1960s, there was no evidence that von Marbog was interested in accumulating government money for his own personal use. More typical of von Marbog's career was an incident in which refugees fleeing Vietnam was overwhelming an aircraft carrier. In a well-publicized move, von Marbog ordered sailors to shove empty chopters overboard.

18:50 So full ones could continue to land. Von Marbog had those kinds of moments. That is why his involvement in Yitzko seemed like such an aberration. Yitzko was officially paid $71 million for shipping some $750 million worth of arms to Egypt. So basically 10% was his cut. And again,

19:21 was Isco's cut. And so this is a fake CIA company taking their 10% off the top. 10% for the big guy? Yeah, same thing. And in these cases, this was money that was going to Edwin Wilson that then he used as seed money to start other front companies for the CIA.

19:47 And it's our money because these are actual government. These were not black contracts. These were actual government contracts to sell official military sales to. And there's an official program of military sales and it's considered military aid. And so this is all our tax dollars. But what was never revealed was that ETSCO had a second secret contract to allow charges of 15 to 25 percent.

20:17 of the value of the shipment instead of just the 10%. As powerful as his job at the Defense Security Agency, Von Marbog could not escape scrutiny. The trail from the tragedy that had taken place on Victory Day in Egypt led right to Von Marbog's office. The connection to Eats Go was everywhere. He foolishly wrote a memorandum.

20:45 on July 29, 1981, detailing a briefing that he and Mr. Salam had, who was an Egyptian national with contacts to their minister of defense. Von Marbog left out the fact that Salam was the business partner of Klein's in Itzko, and that Klein's and Von Marbog's secret partner was I.R.T.

21:10 In the same memorandum, von Marburg confirms that he had expedited tank deliveries for the Victory Day parade as a favor to the defense minister in Egypt. Letter after letter was discovered in the files showing the equipment officially destined for Egypt was being diverted to Afghanistan. Remarkably, Egypt had fallen behind on its Camp David Accord loan payments from the very first day.

21:39 when they were due in 1980. And yet the equipment that they weren't paying for because they weren't getting it kept going because it was going to Afghanistan. On September 13, 1981, an article was written in the Wilmington News Journal, made public for the first time the details surrounding Itzko's partnership. The source for the article, Joseph

22:10 Patrick Judge, had been a salesman in the Wilson organization. The information in the article was denied by both the Pentagon and the Egyptian government. Larry Barcella, the lead prosecutor on Wilson's case, quickly isolated Joe Judge from reporters. I can't have anybody telling the truth. In July 1982, Department of Defense General Counsel William Taft IV

22:40 notified General Richard Secord that he was the subject of a criminal investigation. Tapp wrote Secord, the investigation involved Itzko von Marbog, Edwin Wilson, Thomas Klein, Hussein Salam, and officials in the United Arab Republic and employees of the Defense Security Agency. Tapp instructed Secord,

23:06 who had been promoted to Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Near Eastern, African, and South Asian Affairs, that he must not initiate any written or oral communication with Wilson, Klein, von Marburg, or Shackley. By this time, von Marburg had already quietly retired due to ill health. October 1982, Edward T. Hound, P-O-U-N-D,

23:34 wrote a major story in the Wall Street Journal about a federal grand jury that was looking at Itzko. Pound had no idea Itzko might have been connected to the Sadat assassination. But he reported, quote, the case is so sensitive because of potential damage to U.S.-Egyptian relationship that it is being overseen by high Justice Department officials, one of whom traveled to Egypt recently.

24:03 The U.S. had taken pains to avoid angering or embarrassing Cairo, unquote. The pains the Reagan-Bush administration was willing to take became clear as the Itzko case moved up the bureaucratic ladder to the National Security Council. What had begun as a Maritime Commission and Customs Service routine audit became a full-scale effort to cover up the involvement of Shackley's Accord.

24:30 Van Marbogh, Klein's, and the Egyptians in an illegal and unauthorized intelligence operation. As the Pentagon, with Van Marbogh retired, Frank Carlucci was now doing his best to protect General Secord. The depth of the government's knowledge was demonstrated at a meeting March 21, 1983, in the White House stint room.

24:55 where top officials of the CIA and the Justice Department and State Department gathered to discuss the White House position on the Itzko prosecution. Stanley Sporkin, Bill Casey's hand-picked general counsel for the CIA, wrote a memorandum for record. Present at the meeting were prosecutor Theodore Greenberg, Mark Richard, William Hendricks, two of Greenberg's bosses,

25:25 William Taft IV, who's, by the way, under investigation, by these same people, the General Counsel of the Defense Department, who had unsuccessfully urged Accord's suspension, and Robert Kimmitt, K-I-M-M-I-T-T, one of Jimmy Carter's NSC employees, who is now on Reagan's National Security Council as the General Counsel. Wingate Lloyd.

25:56 and Jeff Smith of the State Department was also present. First, Sporkin's memo described the allegations, quote, current and former senior officials of the U.S. government conspired with certain foreign officials to defraud the U.S. and Egyptian government of millions of dollars. Mr. Kermit, general counsel to the National Security Council, called the meeting because of recent approaches of two lawyers, Ken Webster and Martin Hoffman.

26:28 who claimed that if DOJ continued with its investigation of the Egyptian-American transport company, Eatsco, it would cause severe damage to the country's relationship with Egypt. In fact, the lawyers were playing a game of what they referred to as gray mail, not blackmail, gray mail. In effect, threatening that if the prosecution of the hobo...

27:00 Hobel, H-O-B-E-L-M-A-N, shipping company, which Eastco had used as its freight border, and Abu Ghazala, who was now the defense minister, continued, very embarrassing state secrets might emerge for the CIA. Sporkin wrote, Mr. Hoffman and Webster approached the NSC.

27:31 in order to inject national security concerns to thwart the DOJ investigation. Discussing the substance of the meeting, Sporkin wrote that Clines, Shackley, Secord, and von Marburg were conducting weekly meetings to discuss ways to obtain contracts with U.S. Defense Department. In October 1978, Clines retired from the CIA. Also,

28:01 On October 4th, 1978, the Defense Department received a letter from the Egyptians saying that Tersam of Panama, it was registered in Panama, is the sole shipping agent for the government of Egypt. In January 1979, Wilson, Secord, and von Marbog were all together in London. Wilson gave von Marbog $10,000 in cash, according to an eyewitness. In February 1979, Wilson loaned half a million dollars to Klein.

28:31 The money was used by Klein to form various business groups. All of the principals have 20% shares, and all but Klein's shares were secret. Each man, because basically what they're setting up is front companies. Each man in the meeting wrote his own version of the same memorandum for the record. The documents all agreed that Etzko was a criminal conspiracy involving Wilson, Von Marbog, Secord, Klein's, and Shackley.

29:01 In the end, it works out to be an $8 million ripoff by ETSCO, funds which the Egyptians could have used for supplies. The Department of Justice memorandum stated it went on to say that von Marbog received a cash payoff in Geneva in October 1980 from Klein's. Again, there was an eyewitness to it. It included the information that on January 2, 1982, von Marbog retired from the DoD.

29:31 citing those pesky health concerns. And also that Klein's got booted out of ETSCO. It continued, Salam buys him out. Salam says that Egyptians kicked Klein out because Klein's ties to Wilson and hence to Libya. Klein's comes out of this with a $2.7 million on his 49,000 initial investment. Wingate Lloyd.

29:59 of the State Department made it clear in the meeting that if Abu Ghazala is involved, who is the Minister of Defense in Egypt, President Mubarak will be embarrassed. The Egyptian government knew that today's meeting about ISCO would take place that morning and the Egyptian charge

30:23 was in Lloyd's office at 9 o'clock in the morning to try to find out what was going on. The Justice Department had publicly told the Egyptians that they were not investigating Egypt. The officials concluded the meeting with a decision to turn responsibility of the case over to Greenberg with a continued understanding that no Egyptians would be criminally prosecuted. Before the meeting broke up, a White House aide named Pittman spoke.

30:53 According to Wingate Lloyd's handwritten notes, Pittman stated that the National Security Advisor, William Clark, made clear that the White House does not want any criminal prosecution. With that clear instruction, Theodore Greenberg carried out his assignment. The cover-up of BITSCO was the official national policy. When John Kester, K-E-S-T-E-R, an attorney at R.G. Hobles,

31:23 Hobelman Shipping Company saw Ed Pound's article in the Wall Street Journal. He noted that an Air Force Lieutenant Colonel by the name of Thomas Slogler with the Defense Security Agency was repeatedly quoted throughout the article. Kester wanted to talk to Slogler to learn more about the case. When he tried, the officer refused.

31:53 citing orders from the SEC DEF, he was not allowed to comment. Kester, who was aggressive in the case, then tried to get information out of the Defense Department directly using the FOIA request. But Richard Armitage, who was the Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs, said in a sworn declaration that the disclosure of Defense Department dealings with Egypt regarding ISCO

32:20 would affect the national security of the United States and would constitute a breaking of a pledge of confidentiality between them and the Egyptian government. To protect the principles in its go from prosecution, the Justice Department needed to thoroughly discredit Wilson and to keep him from talking and to make anything he might say in the future not credible. Barsala did.

32:51 an extraordinary job to this effect. Capping the end of Wilson's prosecution became a bizarre charge that Wilson had tried to hire fellow prisoners to kill Barsala, his wife, prosecutor Carol Bruce, and other enemies. In that case, tried in New York, an inspector in the U.S. Marshal Service swore that he overheard Wilson threatening the life of Barsala during a flight between Zurich and Madrid.

33:20 on June 15, 1982. Here's his quote. Mr. Wilson stated that he was going to kill Barcella. According to Mr. Wilson, the killing would be in retaliation for Barcella's role in the investigation, which had led to Mr. Wilson's indictment. Mr. Wilson stated, I'm going to kill that son of a bitch if he's 71 and I'm 101, unquote.

33:47 Wilson was found guilty in that case, a conviction that seemed, at the time, to end any hope that he would ever emerge from prison alive. But the veracity of the U.S. Marshal was called into question almost immediately when a report by the same inspector and a copy of his airline ticket demonstrated that he had flown in the tourist cabin while Wilson had been in first class. But at that point, it didn't matter. Wilson's guilt

34:15 was already sealed, both in the media and in the courts. In late 1983, Wilson offered to brief Barsala about Itzko, but by this time, Wilson had finally realized that his former business associates had betrayed him and was setting him up. Wilson's understanding with Barsala was that if the information he provided led to further convictions, Barsala would assist Wilson in shortening his prison sentence.

34:44 With the slender agreement in hand, Wilson began to talk. For the first time, he detailed the history of ETSCO and confirmed his role in financing all of the operations. He named other witnesses to the payoff and kickbacks. The debriefing lasted for days in the U.S. Marshals facility in Alexandria, Virginia. According to Wilson, the only apparent purpose of the debriefing, which he did not know at the time, was to find out how much damage he could do if he decided to talk.

35:13 to the media. If Wilson exposed the activities of Shackley, Clines, and Bar-Malbach in the media, it could have detailed, derailed the ongoing and now main, like it had already heated up, contra operation. Because basically what they were doing with Egypt in Afghanistan, they had replicated for Nicaragua. It soon became apparent that Wilson

35:43 knew less about the EATS cooperation than his former secret partners did. When the conversations ended in 1983, the Justice Department sent Wilson to the U.S. Penitentiary in Marion, Illinois. He never received an explanation of why his days of debriefing brought not one single prosecution. Finally, in 1990, he learned through the Freedom of Information Act

36:11 that at the time he was telling everything he knew to Barsala. Theodore Greenberg had long since made a plea bargain with Clines and all of the others. As part of that arrangement, Shackley, Secord, and von Marbog went on with their lives and operations and was never, ever held to account. Air Freight International, a subsidiary of R.G. Hobbleman,

36:41 entered into the first plea bargain. Then, on July 21, 1983, Hussein Salam and Isko paid $3 million in settlements of all claims. Salam pled guilty to two counts of filing a false invoice with the Department of Defense. His plea bargain agreement called for a fine of $20,000.

37:13 Systems International paid a fine of $10,000 for filing a false statement. Klein's agreed to pay an additional $100,000 to settle all civilian claims, civil claims, sorry. That is all he ended up having to pay, and they had made millions. Perhaps the most remarkable event during Klein's appearance in court was the prosecutor Greenberg essentially lied to the court when he said the government

37:40 Quote, the government would submit and prove beyond a reasonable doubt that on September 29th, 1978, the defendant System Services International was established as a corporation entirely owned and controlled by Mr. Thomas Clines, unquote, which is not true. As Greenberg did before the judge, Richard Williams, on January 1984, he knew full well.

38:10 that because of the national security, he was leaving out what his own investigators had discovered. Sitting inside a safe in his office at the Justice Department were the files of a case entitled Thomas Gregory Klein's Major General Richard Secord, U.S. Air Force, Fritz von Marbog, labeled bribery, conflict of interest, foreign corrupt practices.

38:41 And inside those files was the information that would have exposed Greenberg's performance in Judge Williams' courtroom as a complete fraud. Also sitting in Greenberg's safe were the files that made up the case Thomas G. Kline's et al. misuse of classified documentation involving Nicaragua, espionage, perjury,

39:10 Office of Origin, Alexandria. Like Itzko, that case involving the documents Shirley Brill watched Clines and Chi Chi Quintero cut the classification codes off of all of the documentation would never be prosecuted. Wilson said, quote, there's testimony which they knew in 1982 and they never went after the case. See?

39:38 That's really significant that they knew before I ran Contra that these guys were guilty, that they had information. They were in Eatsco. At this time, they wouldn't. Why wouldn't they go ahead and prosecute? Unquote. Wilson gave Barsala his lawyer's memorandum on the loan for IRT. All of this information I had on me when I was arrested in 1982. That's where it came from.

40:06 Adding to Wilson's bitterness was the fact that it was all so unnecessary. He was quoted as saying, if I had run it, eats go, it would have all been done legal and I would have been able to control clients. I would have said, you're not going to do this. You're not going to do that. And we would have done everything legitimately. It was a legitimate idea. Instead, they wanted to steal it all.

40:35 And they screwed it all up. Unquote. That's the end of the story. And the next, which we'll go in tomorrow, is about all of those same people add in Oliver North. And we start talking about Iran-Contra. It gets even crazier. All right. Open her up. That is crazy. And that Greenberg is...

41:19 He's braggingly involved in all sorts of corruption. It's incredible. Yeah. That's why I wanted you to post something on him because he's really, really a dirty guy. And so many of them, just like today, you know, because none of this was cleaned up. None of it was ever exposed.

41:49 It just kept repeating itself over and over again. And that's the reason why we're dealing with what we're dealing with today. What I find kind of ironic out of all of this, a 10% fee of $71 million wasn't enough. Yeah. And that's what gets them caught. Well, what actually got them caught was just a routine audit. I mean, because they were actual, most of them during part of this thing were government employees. They weren't allowed a cut of anything.

42:29 You know, depending on the dates of those transactions, Klein and Shackley worked for the CIA and they weren't entitled to any cut of anything. But what they were doing is they were cutting in their buddies who then gave them kickbacks. And, you know, like you say, whatever they have, it's never going to be enough. Were those Greenberg files ever released? One that is safe?

43:04 Yes. I mean, after a period of time when they did the because I'm trying to remember exactly. So basically, Edwin Wilson finally basically gets the whole situation gets readdressed after Iran-Contra comes out. Because now think about him. And this is the irony of all of this.

43:31 So Edwin Wilson gets shipped off to prison based on a lie. And he's basically in bed with all these shysters. Whether or not he's a shyster or not, you can debate that because he keeps saying he did everything legitimately. And he did actually think he was working for the CIA, but he still was doing some really shady shit. So anyway, he's the only one that goes to jail. Everybody else gets protected and not.

43:59 Not even two years later, every single one of these people's names are in the news for doing it in a different location. Now, can you imagine sitting in prison knowing that you're there when all of the other people was doing shady shit and they're all free as the bird and then you are sitting in there in your day room or whatever watching television.

44:28 And you see the news clip to General Secord and you see that he's getting indicted and he's going to have to testify from the Senate for doing the same shady shit that you're sitting in jail for. It's crazy. As I'm reading these, it seems as though the charges that they received were pretty much a slap on the wrist. That's a question mark. So, yeah, they went in and.

45:04 paid a fine and basically the everything was you know marked um paid in full um they allowed them to plea deal to some minor you know traffic violation and um they were free to continue doing what they'd been doing which was criminality and sure enough two years later they're back in front of the same court system and the the house and senate for the iran contra scandal

45:37 Yeah, it's crazy. I did find the paperwork, the original paperwork, all of it, 100 and some odd pages, and I posted it. I'm sticking it up in the net. Okay. All right. Miles? Good afternoon, Colonel. I want to thank you for reposting some of my stuff. I'm more of a visual person.

46:16 I want to see what these people look like. So, and then also, guys, just remember when we're on this platform and the Colonel's like, you know, on Rumble 2. Now, today she's not. I checked that out. But just go back. It doesn't cost any money, guys, and it doesn't take that much time. So go back and give her a thumbs up, even if you don't have time to watch the whole episode.

46:46 I mean, yesterday was 2,200 people viewed, or that's how many views it got. I don't know if everybody watched the whole show, but she got 62 likes. Like, come on, guys. I am on Rumble, by the way, Miles. Oh, okay. See, the algorithm's not showing me. I have to go. See, I have my feed. It should pop up on my feed. So I'm going to have to go under the Colonel's Corner.

47:14 and scroll down and find you. So we want the algorithms to work so it will show you live without scrolling down like 50 or 60 people. So that's what we're trying to do, guys. We're trying to get more eyes on what we're doing. And it doesn't take that much time. It doesn't cost you anything to do that.

47:44 Thanks, Colonel. I appreciate it. Thank you, Miles, for promoting that. Because like you guys realized, I always forget that. I don't ask you guys to donate to us. There have been a ton of people that have donated and I really, really appreciate that because I know how tight money is right now.

48:08 And I oftentimes I'm not even sure in the studio how you even see where people donate. Someone said the other day, oh, you forgot to mention so and so who had made a donation over on Rumble. And frankly, I didn't see it. I don't know. I'm trying out this new way. So I don't. So just so you guys know, when you do a podcast in the past.

48:34 The way Rumble worked, it was basically just the front end of the podcast. You actually had to go to a streaming service like StreamYard, and then you actually recorded there, and it kind of sent it over to the television, for lack of a better word, which is Rumble. And you could send it to YouTube and other viewing platforms. But Rumble just recently come out with a Rumble Studio where you don't have to do that anymore.

49:02 broadcast to YouTube and to Twitter directly from the Rumble studio. And once I get into the Rumble studio, I cannot see my actual, I mean, I can see the chat, but I can't see the little area where it talked about people who donated. And so if I.

49:24 forget to thank you for that. Please just understand I can't actually see it when I'm in the studio and I'm not looking at the live feed myself, which quite frankly, watching for hands and I'm not ambidextrous, so I'm using way too many parts of my brain already. Trying to remember all of this material and

49:48 Having my laptop on so we can do the rumble piece of that when we were having so much problems with the volume, that was not even an option. And then also looking at the phone where people are continually texting and calling and all this other stuff and trying to look for hands. I'm like about a foot underwater when it comes to the ability to do all of this stuff at the same time. So I appreciate all of you, your patience in.

50:17 helping me work through the electronic piece of all of this, because it is not my forte, as anybody who ever worked for me when I was on active duty can tell you. The person that I saw the most every single day that I was on active duty as a commander was my comms people, because if it could be screwed up, I could screw it up. So anyway, I appreciate all of you guys being so patient with us.

50:44 in this learning process, not just of the material, but of all of the venues to be able to get as much of this information out as we can. I don't know how many of you guys listened to the show that we did yesterday, but it was a great show. The flow of it, it just...

51:11 The guy that does that is from Canada. It's called The Missing Link. And he's just a very interesting person when it comes to an interviewer. And so he asks very insightful questions. He has a very engaged audience. And he flashes all of the questions that they have up on the screen in real time. So it just makes it a very fast-paced show with lots of information.

51:41 thrive in that environment. So if you guys didn't get a chance to look at that, I highly encourage you to go back and listen to it because it was a really good kind of general overview of everything. We hit a little bit about the U.S. liberty at the end and it just it really flowed really well. So any questions? Go ahead. Please repost the space. We are still struggling to fight the algorithm.

52:11 and trying to adapt. But if you guys don't mind, please like and repost. Yeah. Yeah. And anybody that's on Rumble, if you guys wouldn't mind giving us a thumbs up, that is something, like I said, thanks Miles for reminding us. I always forget to ask people to do that. And I know that was kind of SR 71 thing.

52:41 And Bridget, when they used to be over there on Rumble and we just did it on Rumble, it was like every fifth post. Give us a thumbs up. Give us a thumbs up. Because I do know that that is one of the mechanisms that gets the shows higher up in the viewing area. So what's up, Trump frog? Just rolling around, shaking hands and kissing babies. Actually, just going to see some clients.

53:11 Doing nothing but working. Cool. How about you? How are you? I'm awesome. That's good to hear. Sorry I missed most of your show, which I'm disappointed about, but it's recorded, right? It is. So I can go back and listen. Yeah, and you definitely, because tomorrow's show is going to be about Oliver North basically doing the same thing. Oh, nice. Yeah, so we talked about Beats Go and how they set Edwin Wilson up.

53:41 And basically, you know, surprised to no one that the DOJ was in on the setup. And so, yeah, it's really interesting. What did I miss today on Twitter? Anything exciting happened? I've been just knee deep in it today. Well, everybody's posting about the continuing resolution and all the trash in it. Oh, yeah.

54:11 Colonel McGregor posted about they did, in fact, have baby farms and organ farms in Ukraine. That came out today. Let's go. Markets are getting raked over right now. Over a trillion dollars has been taken from the stock market. Interest rates went down 25 percent or no point.

54:38 or a quarter percent, 0.25. And all the markets, they swatted silver and gold. They liquidated a bunch of longs and shorts too. So there's a lot of stuff going on. They're just wreaking all the markets today. The bubble is now starting to pop. They're getting ready for a Christmas surprise, it sounds like, if they took a trillion out. There's a lot of activity happening. That's insane.

55:07 I see Warhamster in here. I was hoping he'd come up. He might be busy. Sometimes he just listens. Are we still on the alien? I stand corrected. I stand corrected. They've already erased, as of an hour ago, $3.2 trillion from the stock market valuations.

55:33 They brought silver down. It was up to almost 34. They brought it all the way down to 29 or something because the margins are all due. There's a lot of stuff happening. And then the crypto market and then that one man, Powell, said that the Federal Reserve or the Fed is not allowed to own.

55:52 So all these longs were shorted. So everything's crashing right now because they're all tethered together. And don't forget tethers getting delisted because it doesn't fit up with the criteria in Europe. Have the aliens landed yet? Because I don't see any drones in Vegas, but I'm wondering. We got Warhamster up too. Yay. He can talk to us about this a little bit because this is all Operation Gladio, in my opinion, being dismantled and their slush funds being.

56:22 You know, they're running out of money and they're doing it quite quickly. Sorry. Hi, Warhamster. Howdy. My ears were buzzing. I was listening while I'm working and I heard my name, so I thought I'd say hi. I am not up to speed on today's markets. I will be in about three hours, so I can't really give you a comment right now because I'd be playing more guesswork. I will give you a funny anecdote. I've got a friend who works with a person who is a financial advisor, and I call him the ultimate contrary indicator.

56:52 And my buddy calls me yesterday and says, my guy wants us to get more aggressive here. I go, really? Because I just took about 30% of my equities off the table the day before. So the contrary indicator is right again. He wanted to get more aggressive the day before markets start to get bumpy. So this guy's been basically the Jim Cramer of making bad market calls for the 20 years that I've known him. So yeah, there's a lot going on. But I don't have a whole lot to add.

57:20 Ask me about this tomorrow when I've done a little bit more reading of what's, you know, done a little looking at all the markets and the internals, but not much to add tonight. Well, we're just happy you're here. It's always a pleasure. And what I'm working on right now is getting ready for our skull and bones discussion tomorrow. Yep. I just finished. As a matter of fact, I probably will be.

57:46 Doing that from my newly installed bookcase out in my new cottage in the back with my Bridget beautiful bookcase fully installed and alphabetized by author so that I can find material really quick.

58:09 And that way everybody will be able to see the beautiful bookcase that Bridget built for our Operation Gladio collection of books. But we already decided I have too many books to even fit on my brand new, beautiful bookcase. So we're already talking about expansion. When's your birthday? When's your birthday, Bridget? So that that way you can make more. That was beautiful. That bookshelf is beautiful.

58:36 Oh, I want to see the Colonel She Shed. Yes. Well, so we will show the Colonel She Shed tomorrow. Outstanding. Let me jump off. But nice to see everyone. Great for being here. Thank you. Ron, go ahead. I don't know. I don't know how many of you guys know that I'm kind of big into crypto. And this, you know, I don't think it was an accident that.

59:07 The Ripple lawsuit came right at the tail end on the very last day of Jay Clayton, who was a lawyer for Sullivan Cromwell before he became the SEC chair. But he dumped that lawsuit on Ripple the day before he left or the day that he left. And XRP is the only digital asset out there that has regulatory clarity.

59:39 And another thing about Tether, specifically Tether, is Tether to me is like the Federal Reserve. It prints crypto. It prints dollars to be put into crypto, inflating the crypto market. So it is the cause of a bubble. And I'm very encouraged to see the EU delist.

1:00:06 take the pairs down from Tether with a lot of the other assets. I'm hoping that that has a positive effect. I want Bitcoin to do well because I want all cryptos to do well, but I want it to be a level playing field. And Tether is basically, in my opinion, artificially propping up projects like Bitcoin and

1:00:34 Ethereum, who were, I believe, clandestinely created. So in terms of the crypto market, I watched a good probably 10% of my portfolio disappear today. But I'm encouraged because I feel like with Trump and the new administration coming in and the positive things that they're saying about digital asset space, I'm quite certain that

1:01:02 And taking into consideration all the other moves out there, I feel like this is a great opportunity to buy when there's blood in the streets if you guys are into or even considering learning about crypto. Not Bitcoin or Ethereum. Only ISOs. Sorry. Right. Oh, yeah. Well, I thought I made it pretty clear. I'm not a big – I own no Ethereum and no Bitcoin. I don't have any of that.

1:01:31 So anyway, I just wanted to make that statement because you said you talked about Tether and that brought a smile to my face. Yeah, because Tether is how they've been. That's I mean, it's not only the crypto market or Bitcoin. And if you saw how much that they just printed or mined or whatever for the U.S. Treasury Tether, it's insane. And yes, for that. But they use Tether and and all the finance or all the money stuff. It's all of it. You know, that's that's that's.

1:01:57 part of their stuff. But then if you look at, like you said, Bitcoin, Ethereum, you know, we've got our stock market base, you know, a lot of those things are on Ethereum, you know. But then in March, that's all going to be changing too, because like Paxos and FedNow, they're all 100% on ISOs, which is, like you said, Ripple has the clarity and the ISOs also have more clarity than any of the other ones. And they're backed by something and there's a usage for them.

1:02:22 And another reason that I was mentioning Ripple is because of the RLUSD stablecoin. And that is a stablecoin that actually is going to have.

1:02:33 the proper assets behind it. So basically, if you buy stablecoin, let's say you spent $100 on an exchange, that $100 has to be there. And Tether is just manufacturing that. For some of you guys who aren't really familiar with the crypto, Tether is just printing that up arbitrarily, and it doesn't exist. But it is inflating the prices of the projects.

1:03:03 And there's a reason for that, because the liquidity from Bitcoin and Ethereum is what's going to be going into the ISOs as they tokenize everything. And they're putting these regulations on stuff with an asset backed. And you can't forget about Stellar and HBAR just stated that they're coming out with a stable coin on their ledger system as well. So Hedera is going to have a HUSD. Stellar's already had one. USDC has been around for years.

1:03:29 And then you've got the RLUSD, but people have to understand it's just a dollar. It's just a dollar. It's not worth anything more than just a dollar. So don't sell your XRPs to buy the RLUSDs. Use your fiat dollars. No, absolutely. It is strictly – it's a stable coin so that you can exchange profits, take profits, and buy back into crypto without exiting crypto. But you look at USDC. USDC is on the Ethereum network. It's on the Ethereum chain.

1:03:57 But it's actually the USDC on the Stellar is native and it's been the stable coin. We used to onboard all the time through MoneyGram. We were the beta test years ago for Stellar and Lobster. And I used to train people on this stuff. And so, yeah, USDC, the liquidity pools, what is, you know, so like a lot of the people that have been following Stellar and following this movement of Stellar. Now, is that why your name is Stellar?

1:04:26 Absolutely. I did not. Okay. I know now. Come on, Ron. I didn't know that. Come on. I did not know that. I'm serious. You need to have your picture or your avatar be the cover of the 1988 Economist magazine. You're so funny.

1:04:51 I mean, they've been cleaning out the crypto stuff. I mean, I wish bullish was in here, but like the history of like the first exchange for Bitcoin, you know, that was an exchange that was just I mean, Bitcoin was just laundering. It's just dirty money. Are you talking about Mt. Gox? Yeah. Jeb McCabe, you know, which is stellar now. Jeb McCaleb. I always say his name wrong.

1:05:10 And then, you know, but then he was with Ripple and then he ended up going to Stellar, you know. But I just think that there's been a lot of really key players that are white hats that have been helping clear out a lot of stuff. And even that Fink guy from Blackstone and how he got put into it and, you know, what he's doing. I think that there's a lot to be said about some of the people that we thought that were really bad that were actually probably helping with a lot of the systems that we're getting into now. You know, I agree a thousand percent. I agree a thousand percent.

1:05:40 That's why I think this is awesome because this is all part of Operation Gladio, the international syndicate and all that stuff. And they're being exposed. They're going broke and they're losing their control and power. So that's why I just think all of this stuff is great. And we have bubbles within the stock market. We've got a real estate bubble.

1:05:57 bubbles all at the crypto markets and everything. So it's time for it to get adjusted, but it needs to be cleaned out. And thank goodness that Donald Trump is in and those executive orders are still going on and just can't wait for him to be inaugurated so we can finish cleaning up this shit. Sorry. Yeah, I agree.

1:06:17 And thank you, Colonel Towner, for exposing all of these players that at one time in my life, I actually like thought that the Oliver Norse and the Reagans and all these different people were actually really good guys. And, you know, learning this, it's really sad that everything that we've ever been taught has been a complete manipulation on what the true reality was.

1:06:39 Can I tell a really funny story that I'm embarrassed about? Before I went into the Navy as an 18-year-old kid, I had a picture of George Bush on my wall, and I was so proud because he was in his Navy flight uniform from World War II. I can't believe. I look back on that, and I just shudder to think that that was on my wall at one time. That's hilarious. Miles, go ahead.

1:07:08 I'm not going to talk about crypto, but I want to get back to the history because I'm a huge history buff and fan. And a lot of my history heroes are in here. But there's one that's not, and that's the ghost of Patrick Henry. And he did a good show today called Breaking History. And they talked about Canada's finance stuff, the Russian assassination, and then Syria.

1:07:37 Yeah, I like I like history, guys. Ron, you're on the list. Well, Breaking History and Gordon on and Matt who do that show are both amazing, both in their presentation and their knowledge. And it is an honor every time I get the opportunity to go on. And one of our I think I've been on there several times. I think one of the best shows was the Syrian show.

1:08:05 We did that in two parts. If you guys haven't watched it, I highly encourage you to go watch it because it puts into perspective everything that you're currently seeing. And unfortunately, it falls in line with what we just disclosed in Prelude to Terror because, of course, all of this is predicated on patterns where you go in and you destabilize the country. And, of course, in Syria, we've tried regime change there for decades.

1:08:32 All because they want a pipeline through there that they invited him, you know, Assad to London to basically bribe him into allowing the pipeline to be built. When in fact, once you acquiesce to the pipeline, then they want the military in there to be able to, quote unquote, protect their investment.

1:08:58 which basically gives away your sovereignty. And he just wasn't all about that. And then as soon as he said he wasn't all about that, then they're not all about him. And, you know, it was regime change after regime change operation. And it doesn't really matter how many buildings they knock down, how many people they kill, how many children that they kill. They will just keep doing it until either they're stopped or they finally get the guy overthrown.

1:09:27 Stella, go ahead. Do you think that one of the reasons why they strategically made it the timing to do this stuff in or the CIA and all the baddies or whomever, do you think that they did the Syria thing now because of how close like, you know, Iraq and some of those other countries are ready to revalue, which means, you know, they are bricks. So do you think that that might be one of the reasons why they did it? Because after the Iraqi war, they said that they chased people into Syria.

1:09:55 you know i'm going after those chemical weapons or whatever so i i don't know what do you think well now i think that was all a big lie um i mean i i'm very familiar with that intelligence um given where i was sitting at the time um but i don't believe any of that now um i i think all of that was a lie and um i think the entire if

1:10:23 there was chemical weapons taking into Syria. It was to put them in basically stay-behind kind of stashes in order for them to be able to use them against Assad once they got done with Saddam Hussein. That's what I was meaning. That's what I was pertaining to because I remember after the Iraqi war, that was one of the things that they said is they never found any of the chemical weapons because there weren't any in Iraq.

1:10:53 And so they chased off into Syria, supposedly they had gone in a little bit into Syria for whatever, for maybe the stay behind for the time now, because they were able to overthrow it. Maybe that's what they were doing all this time. And I do feel that the coincidence in timing for Syria to fall, you know, as Iraq is getting ready to revalue. Does that make sense or no?

1:11:20 It does. To cause more instability in the Middle East? It does, because if you are going to be able to stabilize Iraq, you have to have another bastion of instability in order to keep the arms contracts going. That's your point.

1:11:38 OK, so that is because it seems like they say, quote, unquote, ISIS or whatever those other people were. Seems like they're the ones that are overthrown. So whatever. So that means that now you've got another terrorist group in there to get people in America to say, oh, we got to start bombing again or whatever. Is that what they're doing? So everybody, whenever you hear a news report or you read a news report.

1:12:02 If they use the terms Mujahideen, ISIS or Al Qaeda, your brain needs to go into a programming track that translates no matter what the name of the terrorist organization is, your brain needs to read CIA. There is no such thing as ISIS. There's no such thing as Al Qaeda. There's no such thing as Mujahideen. Those are all names for trained terrorists that the CIA or NATO has trained in order to be.

1:12:32 to overthrow governments. What about Hezbollah and... So Hezbollah and Hamas have been funded off and on by Western or Western-aligned, to include Israel, organizations their entire time they've existed. Again, they are cudgels to be used

1:13:00 Whenever they need to have chaos. And so I'm not saying that these entities don't exist. What I am saying is if tomorrow you were given, if I could pay War Hamster with a microscope to go in and audit their books, every single one of them is going to go back to a NATO funded.

1:13:29 relationship to include the training camps just like we found all over Latin America. Training camp after training camp after. Same thing with the beginnings of Gladio when they put all the training camps on the Canary Islands, Sardinia off of Italy. Every single training camp that teaches the exact same thing we taught to the quote unquote

1:13:55 Radical Islamists that supposedly bin Laden, who, by the way, was a CIA asset as well, was training in terror training camps in Pakistan, which, by the way, is an appendage to the CIA, the ISI is. So no matter where you go, no matter what training camp you get to, there's a tether to the CIA each and every time.

1:14:24 So you can't talk about any of these entities. So basically you have a CIA trained guy, just like we just read with Sadat. Our whole chapter today was about how the CIA assassinated the existing president, Sadat, and installed Mubarak. You just watched it happen in Syria. Marie, go ahead. Well, you guys, you guys piqued my interest with the Gulf War.

1:14:58 I mean, I've been listening to this whole thing, and it's amazing how much information you put out, Colonel. But, yeah. But when you mentioned the weapons of mass destruction, to me, there's always a half-truth in everything, right? And while we didn't go find actual bombs, the research around the Gulf War and Syria and Libya, it gets really, really interesting, of course, with central banks, which is something we know.

1:15:24 But it gets really interesting if you start looking up the discovery of uranium veins. Right before we went over for the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and Saudi Arabia, they found huge veins of uranium. Those guys would have been big players with nuclear metals in the market, but the families that are in control didn't want them to have their own control of their own uranium.

1:15:54 So they went ahead and lit oil bombs and, you know, lit oil refineries on fire, which, I mean, if you really think about it, if Petro was really their goal, it wouldn't make sense for them to burn up all their gold, right? Those were all distractions so that we went over and mined all the uranium. So they never had control of anything as we pushed towards nuclear energy. So there were weapons of mass destruction, just not in the way that we were told.

1:16:21 And the CIA is nothing more to me than you look at almost like Christopher Columbus, right? You colonize and you strip everything that's of worth of the people that you're looking to control. And the CIA very efficiently has done that through all these avenues. Well, the CIA are basically the paramilitary force for the oligarchs to go in and steal resources. They're the people that light the place on fire.

1:16:51 And then while everybody is trying to put out the fire, they steal all this shit. Yep, and I talked to several soldiers out of those wars that said that they were actually mining. They weren't over there blowing stuff up. They were mining resources. Yeah, I've never heard that. I've not ever read that.

1:17:15 There was no, I can tell you because I was sitting at the combatant commanders, there was no mentioning as far as planning goes of that. I'm not saying it didn't happen. I'm just saying that that would be something that would have been done covertly. And generally speaking, in the case where we have done that, like in Chile and other places, it is not done by military people.

1:17:44 It is done through the importing, like in the case of the Middle East, they normally bring in one of the poorer countries like Pakistan in as the laborers. Because if you go back to the research that we did on BCCI, there were over 20,000 just in Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

1:18:14 Qatar. Those three countries had over 20,000 Pakistanis that were basically their day laborers. And I mean, they have lots of them. They have all the people from the Horn of Africa and everywhere else as day laborers throughout that entire, there's like millions and millions of day laborers, kind of like the arrangement that we had with Mexico as far as the

1:18:40 What do you call that? The occasional people that came in to like in Florida to pick the oranges and migrant workers. They have that exact same arrangement with the Horn of Africa and Pakistan because the BCCI bank, the only asset they actually had on their bank was the four or five day window remittance. And that was billions of dollars that on any one day because they had a four day lag.

1:19:04 And there were billions of dollars in that remittance program. And so generally speaking, they don't use the military to mine that stuff. They use those day laborers. But I'll definitely look for that. And I'll add that to my key search when I go into looking, because that is a very interesting observation about what was going on there and would explain a couple of other things.

1:19:32 Yeah, and I'll pull out my bookmarks, what I have on it, and see if I can get in touch with the people that I talked to about it. But they were like, yeah, we were over there taking this stuff. We were taking their minerals. And it was really just before we went into that war, there was a pretty big vein of uranium discovered, which they're not naturally high in that resource over there. So it was kind of a big deal. And then the other question, I have a question for you.

1:20:00 So, Al-Qaeda, ISIS, all this, we put on a thinking camps ago, that's just a branch of the CIA, basically, right? Do you feel that the contractors that they started up in the early 2000s and mid-2000s, do you feel that that was CIA in a sense, but it was using like our veterans and our soldiers? Because I know my ex, he was an army ranger, and he had gotten an invitation to

1:20:28 go into those contractors like BlackRock, it was actually called BlackRock, and something just didn't feel right about it because there was a lot of, you're going to do things that you can't ask questions about. And a lot of our soldiers ended up signing up because a lot of them were so emotionally damaged from military, it's really what they're good at. Are you talking about like Blackwater? Blackwater, yes, that one. Do you think that those are CIA?

1:20:57 Type programs. 100% are CIA. And there's some legitimate Department of Defense contracts for Blackwater. Like my cousin was over as he was a tank driver during Desert Storm 1. And for, I don't know, six years, he was a tank instructor working for one of the private military organizations.

1:21:27 That got the contract to teach Iraqis new military, you know, because we got rid of their old one stupidly to how to operate tanks. And he was over there for six years doing that. You know, and the irony, of course, is that by contracting that out and you can say what you want about they paid my cousin like.

1:21:56 six times what they paid him while he was on active duty. So instead of having the old military training missions in these places like they did on some of the other operations, they've now contracted all of that out and it costs the taxpayer, it's basically money laundering. So they will pay these guys a whole bunch of money and then all of the

1:22:26 congressional members will get donations from Blackwater or the other private military companies into their campaign funds, because now all of that, it's just like what Ed Wilson, just what we talked about, 10% for the big guy. The big guy is going to be the guy that issues the Appropriations Act, another 10% for this. And then, of course, the company is going to make a profit. And that's not what all of that is for. None of that should be being done.

1:22:54 And as far as the CIA's piece of this, if you look at many of the CIA training camps, to include that one that's in North Carolina, it's not coincidental that Blackwater's blimp base is the same facility that the CIA blimp base is. They're literally on the same piece of property. So, yeah. Fun times are happening and so much information. I love it.

1:23:33 Thank you. Can I ask who I don't I didn't know who was talking about the Gulf War. I wanted to follow her and or and connect with her. Marie 17. OK, thank you. Sure. I got to read off something based on what we just talked about. You know, we were mentioning Theodore Greenberg, the prosecutor that worked in the DOJ that basically sent.

1:24:05 Ed Wilson to jail and left everybody else out. Listen to this article, which is basically the same thing. This article was written, it's a New York Times article in 1988 in January. It says, last month, to the surprise of the Justice Department officials, a Manila businessman pleaded guilty to charges of defrauding the Pentagon.

1:24:36 on a Philippine military contract before a federal judge in Alexandria, Virginia, and paid a million-dollar fine. Earlier, departmental officials discussed why a Filipino would plead guilty. Now, Filipino would plead guilty to a crime in Virginia since there's no extradition treaty to the United States from the Philippines. A colleague at the meeting replied,

1:25:06 Ted would hound him for the rest of his life, unquote. And according to an official who recalled the conversation, everybody at the meeting believed that he was serious. The officials were talking about Theodore Greenberg, who title is deputy chief of the fraud section of the criminal division of the Justice Department. That, people, is where Robert Mueller was as well.

1:25:33 Mr. Greenberg's job description belies the scope of his responsibility for his career. For the now 40-year-old prosecutor, the Philippine fraud case was the latest in a series of sensitive criminal cases involving national security. Among Mr. Greenberg's talent is the ability to win cases while preventing public disclosure, you know, like by throwing him in jail.

1:26:00 Many of his criminal targets have had access to top secret and are searching for ways to reduce or escape punishment by threatening to disclose sensitive information. I've had a number of major cases. I've been extraordinarily lucky, Mr. Greenberg said in an interview. His prosecutorial resume includes cases against a former CIA officer, Edwin Wilson, the one that we just talked about.

1:26:30 and several of Wilson's associates. Members of the Army's Secret Operations Units, Ronald Rinald, R-E-W-A-L-D, a Hawaiian businessman with ties to where? The CIA, who was convicted in 85 of fraud. Mr. Greenberg's rise in the Justice Department parallels his ascendancy.

1:26:56 recent years to complex white-collar criminal cases. He's basically the guy sitting in the DOJ for the CIA. There was a series of cases that involved classified sensitive information that didn't arise from a classic espionage case, Mr. Greenberg said, explaining his niche in the DOJ. He often finds himself trying to keep these government secrets from spilling out into the public.

1:27:26 He's there as a watchdog for the CIA. He is, however, one of the department's experts in the use of Classified Information Procedures Act of 1980, which set up procedures for handling classified information in criminal trials. Mr. Greenberg, who was born in New York, is not secretive or shy when it comes to reporters. Last month after the court hearing in Alexandria in the Philippine

1:27:54 military contract case, Mr. Greenberg took his news conference outside the courthouse despite it being biting cold. I think it was important for the press to understand what happened in court. It's been suggested that there wasn't enough deterrence in one of Mr. Greenberg's cases, which ended in a plea deal with no jail sentence imposed. In 1986's book on the Wilson investigation,

1:28:25 The book was called Manhunt by Peter Moss. They questioned Mr. Greenberg's plea bargain arrangement in a case involving $8 million in the inflated Egyptian-American transport, Eatsco. The company's principals included Hussein Salam, the businessman, and then it basically talks about all the stuff we just talked about in this article. But it says that the...

1:28:54 The book's publisher saying he was, quote, disturbed by its disparaging portrayal and suggested that he failed to pursue the interest of justice. So Greenberg was a little perturbed at that. He's also quoted as saying that he acted as a tool of the CIA in the Pentagon. The matter died with the letter and Mr. Greenberg maintained he did the right thing, blah, blah, blah.

1:29:23 As his closeness with the CIA, a former general counsel of the agency who worked with Mr. Greenberg, Stanley Sporkin, who we just talked about, became a federal judge, said that the prosecutor had a great relationship with the intelligence agency and that Greenberg was also able to uphold the DOD's leg of being aggressive but careful. But that's not what all of the other ones said. One guy, quote, Ted.

1:29:53 does what he is supposed to do. He brings people to justice, said one Washington attorney. He may be aggressive, but that's probably an understatement, said another attorney. Ted is extremely careful. And then it goes on to talk about Wilson's case again. It says Mr. Greenberg's new position makes him more of a manager than a prosecutor.

1:30:21 So basically, he got promoted after doing all of that shit. And without going and looking into the Philippine fraud case, it looks like it was basically the exact same thing. He just makes a deal. And then you can bet that the rest of the CIA people that was underneath this one civilian guy basically got off scot-free. So I just wanted to let you guys know that.

1:30:48 These people that we discover in these stories, whatever we're talking about, it's not the only time they've done it. It's crazy all the stuff that you'll find. Well, it's nice, Colonel, that somebody else puts the pieces of the puzzle together, but they don't give you the whole picture. And by the way, Warhamster, this is not a dig, but the Colonel upgraded. It's not a she shed anymore. It's a cottage. That's right. It's a cottage.

1:31:32 especially a cottage now that I have a beautiful mid-century bookcase in it, too. Andy, go ahead. Hey, Colonel. Thanks again for all this information you're giving. I was sort of waiting for like a moment to actually ask a question. And you did mention NATO. So I wanted to, you know, ask a question regarding NATO.

1:32:00 statements that things that Trump has talked about this I mean just going back we know that NATO has been involved in not only defense but in offense in Serbia, Libya and I'm not sure where else but Trump Trump has been speaking about you know the other countries meeting their NATO commitments and I just want to understand that more you know I have my own

1:32:29 Language matters in terms of what they're saying. And I understand there's a difference between defense spending and meeting limits or supporting NATO. So I just wondered if you could shed a bit more light of where you think Trump is going. Because I know he has made comments about Canada, for example, not meeting its NATO commitments. And what do you think that...

1:32:56 Where do you think that's going or what do you think that means? I think that he was making the case that we basically provided the military might, if you will, for most of the NATO alliance.

1:33:21 Getting NATO in the news allows him to begin the narrative. I can't imagine he's going to stay in NATO. I can't believe that NATO even has a very long life in a Trump administration. We would not be the first to pull out of NATO. Obviously, France did that after General Lyman Lemsker tried to was in on the whole.

1:33:46 attempted assassination of Charles de Gaulle multiple times, at least over 20. Some books I've read said it was over 30, but I'll stick with the 20 because that was in several books. And so it is not unprecedented that someone pulls out of NATO. And I do think that bringing NATO into a conversation on a regular basis in a negative light

1:34:14 is laying the groundwork to condition people to understand that, number one, we don't need NATO. Number two, NATO has lost all, when you include countries like Turkey, who is going behind most of the allies back and doing things that is not consistent.

1:34:43 with even a general good thing, like in Syria. So yet, if Turkey does something, then you have a collective responsibility to have to provide a defense for them, even though they can be acting as a rogue agent. And so I think in those cases that he is basically laying the groundwork.

1:35:13 for us not to remain in NATO. And to me, anything that's discussed about NATO, with it being in a negative light, goes along that path to preconditioning people to accept the fact that we don't need to be in NATO. So I know that Trump has been talking about, you know, increasing the, you know, making this Iron Dome or whatever around the states, like increasing security for the continent of the states.

1:35:44 And I think Canada would be well served to actually join and help out with that. So when he's talking about that, he's not talking about NATO. He's just thinking about protecting the U.S., right? He's not in terms of the spending, amount of spending. I'm just trying to distinguish between the defense spending as per what was agreed to.

1:36:12 And whatever in NATO or whatever or spending on, you know, protecting your own country versus spending on, you know, protecting Europe, you know, or, you know, whatever they're doing there in Europe. Well, it was never about what you spend it on. It's a matter of it being in the defense budget. So if you go back and you look at NATO, it talks about the three percent of your GDP.

1:36:40 being spent on defense. And then the second order of effects was that we should coordinate the quote unquote defense systems to be compatible for command and control. So for example, if we're going to fight as a NATO alliance, then

1:37:05 Every single country can't just buy fighters, right? Because then you don't have any cargo planes to go anywhere. And not every single country could have, you can't have 10 different kinds of tanks and then try to plan a battle plan to make them all interoperable. You can't have different communications where when you get out on a battlefield, nobody can talk to each other. So there were second and third order.

1:37:33 of standardization or at least compatibility requirements that were put in place so that you could affect a coalition of capability. So that's kind of secondary to the point of allocating 3% of your GDP to the defense budget. They never said, like, for example, we...

1:38:00 Trump used $5 billion of the defense budget to build the border wall. So no one ever said that they were going to tell us how to spend our 3% GDP in order to be compliant with NATO. If we spent the entire 3% on a defensive dome, we would have still met the NATO requirements for doing that. Does that make sense? Yes, certainly. Thanks, Carrie. Carrie, go ahead.

1:38:31 Yeah, a philosophical question for you, Colonel. So I was just standing here cutting up a pineapple that cost me like $1.49 to buy. And I was thinking about that my mother, who grew up on a farm, got oranges in the Midwest, got oranges once a year. And that was like...

1:39:03 Super fancy. And it brought up something for me that I've touched on numerous times. And that is, and this is the question. So do you think on some level that there's a justification given by whatever?

1:39:34 um, to all this, what we, what I think is insanity, um, based on, you know, our standard of life is made better through, uh, you know, them going around and stealing everything from everybody else. I mean, I don't appreciate, I don't want it, but do you think it's something, it's like,

1:40:07 They're patriarchal. They're daddy. We're taking care of you. What are you talking about? What do you have against us? You know what I mean? No, they don't think they're doing anything for us because they think we're cattle. They don't really give a shit about us. They are doing it for themselves, for control, because they think we're Neanderthals. And that without them...

1:40:34 we wouldn't even know how to go to the bathroom. So that's literally the amount of care or concern that they have about us. They have the same care and concern about us that they'd have about a farm animal, not their dogs, a farm animal. We are a utility for them to basically be debt slaves in order to enrich them.

1:41:03 So they don't give a shit about us. Ron, go ahead. I wanted to address the thing about Canada and the Dome. Canada may be in NATO along with the United States, but even if one of those two countries had bowed out of NATO, I still believe that there would be a pact, a defensive pact by the United States with...

1:41:29 Canada specifically because it's a buffer zone from any attack that comes in over the pole. So I sensed a little bit of concern in that question. I just wanted to make that statement to address it. So I don't know that I agree with you. I understand your point, and it's a very valid point. And I think that's the funny part of what Trump said about making our 51st state.

1:41:55 because they basically become a 51st state if we are obligated in any way to defend Canada. So basically, they're an appendage of the United States at that point. And I get that. I'm just saying we can still not care what happens to Canada as long as they're a buffer zone if anything comes in. Yeah, I'm not saying I don't care about what happens to Canada. Nor I, nor I.

1:42:24 I know I'm trying to make a more pragmatic point in that Canada currently has a Marxist fascist guy in charge of it. And so if the entire country went down a Marxist fascist avenue and I mean, and I'm talking to an extreme point.

1:42:51 that you now have an incubator there for all kinds of nefarious activities and stuff like that. I'm not saying that we would leave the citizens out in the cold, but I don't think it's in the best interest of America to have defensive packs that are just unilateral defensive packs because we have watched in real time as...

1:43:18 Countries that we thought were our quote unquote allies elect people that if you're in a defensive pack with them would do literally stupid ass shit that would pull us into something that we then have no control over. I'm talking about from a like a no kidding what we should be doing in the future. I don't want to be in defensive packs with anybody.

1:43:47 I want the capability and the technology to protect ourselves and then allow our elected leaders at the time a situation would occur in the future to decide what's in the best interest of America. Because once you start into defensive pacts like we had with NATO, it erupts into all types of corruption and they lie to the collective group of us.

1:44:17 about what it was they were doing. They lied about the fact that there was a communist threat in order to build terror units to attack us. I don't want any more defensive pacts. These people can't be trusted. I'm right there with you, shoulder to shoulder. I guess I'm looking at it more from a territorial strategic part, and you're looking at it.

1:44:42 in a different way. I'm working at it from these people being like Satanists. I don't want to bring Pax with Satanists. I'm right there with you. I don't disagree with you either. Andy, go ahead. I just wanted to add to that. I do think Canada has to work their part to protect themselves.

1:45:09 Definitely will, in terms of once we do get a new government. But I'm just a bit concerned. You know, the current government, he's basically a puppet of the globalists, you know, the World Economic Forum, Young, whatever.

1:45:31 But I'm just not sure about the Conservatives that are, you know, it's basically the government has been going back and forth between these two. And so there are some links to some of this nefarious stuff, even in the Conservative Party. So although he's sounding good, that's why I wanted to specify, you know, what NATO spending is. Is it supporting NATO or is it just...

1:45:58 spending to protect ourselves uh our country and and being you know so that we're not dependent on the u.s you know the u.s i'm sure we'll help each other out but i'm just saying we have to pull our weight right to spend three percent of your gdp which they have never done the majority of nato has never done that and in doing so there there are interoperability requirements in order that must be met

1:46:25 In order to be able to deploy as a unified force. And so those are like second and third consequences to the overall requirement just to spend. And there's no like collective military depot where everybody chips in stuff and it's all sitting there. That's not it at all. All of the 3% is spent on your own military. And those own military 3% resources.

1:46:55 They have collectively had meetings and said, you know, hey, if you're going to buy radios, they need to transmit in this frequency and this range. And here's the channels and blah, blah, blah. If you're going to have aircraft, we recommend, you know, a percentage of fighters versus heavies and that type of thing. If you're going to buy tanks, you know.

1:47:14 Here's the diesel requirement. If you're going to do if you're going to expect logistical support from NATO in the form of diesel, it needs to be this great of diesel to write into your requirements for your tank. That big, broad brush interoperability, because you don't want to have to have 15 kinds of fuel in order to fuel 15 different kinds of tanks. It needs to be on one fuel so that the logistical leg of a NATO operation is.

1:47:43 you know, not retarded. So that's kind of how they do it. They all agreed 3%. None of them did it. And then they also agreed that they would have regular logistical meetings that dictated interoperability. Can I ask a question for the guy from Canada about the conservative party? Are you talking about Pierre Duye?

1:48:11 Yeah. I got his name wrong. Is he not good or is he, I mean, I've only seen video clips of him and he sounds great, but I don't know much about him other than that. No, no, he sounds good, but there are a lot of things that I don't agree with, with how he's speaking. Like, for example, how he, you know, spoke about...

1:48:34 Assad being a tyrant and stuff. To me, some of the things he's saying, he's along the lines of the globalists as well. And Canada did participate in different actions. We had our CF-18 fighters bombing in Libya.

1:48:55 Yeah, so there is that infiltration in our government as well. And that's where I'm a bit concerned. And especially if we just go from one, well, we're in a minority government, but if we go to full conservative majority, which a lot of people don't want to get Trudeau out. And so it looks like that's where things are going to go. That's where I have an issue. And there are other parties that are...

1:49:22 you know, in the wings that, you know, are sort of a label as fringe, but they're, you know, like the people's party of Canada that, you know, Maxime Bernier has been on the side of, you know, like freedom and, you know, against lockdowns and all these other things that is still mentioned as in Canada here as fringe. So that's, that's where I think if we all go that one way towards Pierre and he's well-spoken.

1:49:50 And, you know, has a lot of good ideas. But I'm afraid that he's also part of that globalist just just on the other side, just to buy them more time in Canada. So that's only my comment. So SR-71, then Tim, and then I'm going to have to run. So SR-71, go. Thank you, Colonel. I just wanted to add to this NATO business concerning what's going on. And I'm with you 100 percent in looking at it from the fact that Trump is seriously going to disable.

1:50:22 But looking at it from that standpoint, if people have been paying attention to what's going on in Europe right now, there are grumblings like crazy about these nations, our Western allies who are part of NATO, trying to set something else up on their own. They know it's coming. Thank you, Colonel. Yeah, it does seem like that.

1:50:50 I agree. Tim, go ahead. Hey, I watched the Putin-Tucker Carlson interview, and Putin even asked to join Ukraine. And along the lines of the Operation Gladio, he asked to join NATO. I didn't mean to interrupt you, but yeah, he was interested in joining NATO, and they basically told him to pound sand. Go ahead. Right. Well, it's like one of the...

1:51:20 basic elements of the Gladio thing is to always have a boogeyman. Well, if we were to normalize relations with Russia, kind of like we did with China, there's no need for NATO. And, you know, Russia's never done anything to us. They were our ally in the Second World War, and I don't want to get into the minutia of the relationship, but things change. That was 70 years ago.

1:51:49 There's still got to be a negotiated peace settlement over in the Ukraine. And I don't know. It's like they're not the boogeyman. So you just said the whole key to the whole thing, that if back then, in the early 90s, when the Soviet Union fell, if they would have accepted Russia into NATO, they would have lost their boogeyman.

1:52:19 I have made that very similar point go to any flashpoint in the world that they created and they created them all. If they would have ever been able to kill. Now, we went through. I mean, you just see they know how to kill leaders, right? They can kill them all. One that they want to kill, they'll kill.

1:52:40 But you're telling me that for, you know, the better part of 50 some years, there's no way in hell they could get Castro and he's 90 miles off our shore. They couldn't figure out, despite trying 400 times, how to kill him. Well, why would they want to kill him? Because every single country that they overthrew and stole their resources throughout Latin America was all because we can't have another Cuba. We can't have another Cuba. We can't have another Castro.

1:53:09 If they ever made peace, which JFK was trying to do when he was assassinated, and normalized relationships with Cuba, the CIA should have lost their mechanism to justify all of the overthrows of the countries in Latin America. So they're never going to let you resolve and have peace because that thwarts their agenda to steal everybody's resources.

1:53:40 I got one more question. I'm dying to hear your response. Okay. Well, don't die. I heard about it. I said, I got to ask her the, uh, the Russian general in charge of their biological chemical weapons program that made all the allegations. Uh, he was assassinated like two days ago. Right. Was that the CIA? So I find it highly unlikely that the,

1:54:10 Um, anyone inside of, go ahead, cousin it. I know you're dying to say something. Can you hear me? Okay. I can hear you fine. Oh, all right. Cool. Cause I'm on my laptop actually. Huh? We just need to be quick. Cause I got to go. What's that? Oh, I need to quit whining. I'm the one that's going to go. Um, okay. So real quick.

1:54:36 Um, they've already caught two of the guys and I've posted, uh, a couple of things. They actually had everybody at like one o'clock this morning. I don't know what time it was their time. They've got two guys from Uzbekistan. Um, they were promised a hundred thousand dollars, um, and European passports. And yes, they're out of Ukraine. Um, you know,

1:55:01 Guess who has $100,000? You know, that's going to be the CIA. That's going to be us that paid for it. And one of the reasons why we're paying for it is because, you know, I don't know how many people were paying attention two years ago. I tried to shout it out. That was the guy that was at the bioweapons convention that was saying that it was Metabiota. It was Black and Veatch. It was the University of North Carolina. It was also Fort Detrick.

1:55:31 that were responsible for the biolabs in Ukraine and the COVID-19 outbreak. And I've said it right from the beginning, COVID went through Ukraine before it landed in Wuhan. They were using those Russian peoples as guinea pigs for those biolabs, which is irony because that new omnibus spending bill that they're trying to shove down our throats.

1:55:56 allows for 14 new, a minimum of like 12 or 14 new bio labs. Well, that's because Russia closed all the bio labs in Ukraine and did get a lot of the paperwork, but he was on, I have the video. I have all the files. He named the Bidens. He named, what's his name? Lurch's kid.

1:56:22 Yeah, thank you. Their direct involvement with those biolabs and metabiota. It's not just money laundering that Biden is covering up for with Hunter. OK, that's a direct link to those biolabs because Russia called it out. They named names and Hunter was part of those names.

1:56:42 um so anyway that's where yes to answer your question everything i'm reading the amount of money that they were going to get paid they got the scooters this the explosives were put inside of a scooter all right so they went in they had the money to buy all the scooters then they had to wait for the explosives to come in and that was like no small task to get explosive training why isn't that turkey yeah

1:57:11 Weird that. And from Uzbekistan. Wow. Go figure. Where a bunch of the Mujahideen that fought in Afghanistan was trained in Afghanistan and then later trained in Turkey. Right. Yeah. Right. Well, you know, and we could get into the Uyghurs and the whole thing, you know, like, oh, the oppressed Uyghurs. Well, gee, you think it has anything to do with the fact that fucking Al Qaeda? I don't know.

1:57:37 But anyway, does that help answer your question? I don't know who actually asked the question. Yes, because if you check my bio page, I posted that flow chart that General put out about a year ago. Yeah. Showing the washing machine. Well, yeah, I've got the recording on my Rumble channel. I know Ossie Kosak.

1:58:02 had been kind enough to post the videos with the translations on the bottom. But, yeah, I have all that as well. And good, I'm glad you have it because, you know, as much as I was screaming about it, people were, you know, sort of glossing it over. It's like, wait, what? Biolabs? He's directly involved with the Biolabs.

1:58:23 That was one of the first things we found early on when we collectively started working together was Dick Luger and his presence both in Ukraine with the bio lab actually having his name on it. And he has a very similar one in Georgia with his name on it. Yes.

1:58:43 Well, he's not going to have it in Georgia much longer. The Dream Party has like shown those assholes to the door, which I think is absolutely hysterical. The French woman who lost the presidency, mind you, is she won't vacate. She won't vacate the palace. Can you imagine? She's a fucking squatter. Well, that didn't happen in January. Let's wait and see. Anyway, I do have to run. Thank you all for being here. And we will be back.

1:59:13 tomorrow and i'll be on alpha show tonight at 9 30. oh real quick i'm sorry tim i did post a bunch of stuff from the russian channels um as a matter of fact not five minutes ago which is why i'm on my laptop to begin with so if i mean i'm not trying to redirect people to my page but there's a bunch of stuff there she has an awesome page all right thank you

1:59:38 Yeah, cousin, it's awesome. Spends a lot of time researching the Ukraine, Russia and everything overseas, especially in the east. She does an awesome job. OK, got to run. Thank you all for being here. See you tonight or otherwise. We'll be back here at four o'clock tomorrow. Bye.

1:59:59 What time is your space with War Hamster? No. Tomorrow? Oh, tomorrow. It is delayed tomorrow because we have a special. We are going to do War Hamster at 1.30 and we're going to have Ryan Mata on our Rumble channel at 11.30. He's the guy that's doing all the child trafficking out of Guatemala.

2:00:27 So 9.30 tomorrow morning and 1.30 tomorrow afternoon. For West Coast. For West Coast, yes. Yeah, 11.30.
