0:00 Good afternoon, Colonel. How are you? I'm great. How are you? Oh, you know, another day, another exciting adventure. For that, that is for sure. Okay, so I have to share with you. I have this. Hold on a second. Not that what we're going to talk about is funny today because it isn't, but I have to share with you guys. In my office here.

0:31 I have these big double windows that looks out in my front yard to my circle driveway. And I just watched our pickup truck drive by and just basically rounded the corner and came back around into our driveway. And as it goes by, I'm wondering.

0:53 My husband has my grandson because my daughter had an extended appointment right after school today. So they were in the backyard, and I watched the truck drive by. And as it turned the corner and started coming back in front of the house, I see my grandson driving the truck sitting in my husband's lap. We're at the end of a dead-end road on a cul-de-sac. Oh, that's hysterical. Oh, my gosh. Hit me at the wheel.

1:22 I'm laughing my butt off as I see his head sitting in front of John holding on to the steering wheel. So I'm sure he's out there having the time of his life. Anyway. Oh, my gosh. I love it. All right. He balances out the evil crap that we go through. We go through these books. He does every day. And so I had read a book about a year ago called.

1:54 um safe for democracy the secret world wars of the CIA and I had it next in line to do so I went out to get it it happened to be right beside a book I read about two and a half years ago and this book is about um oh there they are again um this book is about a it's literally a book that is a whistleblower's

2:26 statements, submissions to Congress that was very widely distributed to military officers at different commands. And it encapsulates much of what we're talking about. And it seems with all of the stuff going on with...

2:52 Credit Suisse and UBS and all of those types of things to be way more important than what I had originally thought of it when I read it. I really read it kind of as a background for figuring out the financial piece of this whole puzzle for me. Because if you like literally just sit and think for a second,

3:23 with no distractions, you have trillions of dollars of illicit material, whether it's humans, drugs, narcotics, or weapons transiting the world. So there's ships, there's aircraft, there's pipelines of movement of this material.

3:55 there's the financial piece. And the financial piece is trillions and trillions of dollars. How do you hide that? How do you take, and most of this is done with US dollars. I mean, it's a joke, but it isn't a joke that so much of our US dollar bills, hundred dollar bills, whatever, has traces of cocaine on.

4:23 That's a lot of money laundering. That's so much money laundering that there's no way that we spend billions of dollars on systems to track money laundering that doesn't pick up trillions of dollars of money laundering. It literally, if you think about it for two seconds, defies logic.

4:52 It makes no sense. So we're going to go through this. And obviously, I have a very smart bunch of people that watch these shows. And I'm sorry, they stopped outside. I want you guys, I don't know if you can see this. He just saw me in the window. Oh my gosh, it's so funny. I'm sorry. Have to share that.

5:38 Okay, so we're going to go through here. And I know I have financial people with financial backgrounds. So I'm going to obviously at the end solicit comments from people that have been involved in this. And I would love to hear you guys' feedback on the material. So we're going to start with the abstract because this is literally a book of his material that he submitted. Enclosed are excerpts from a...

6:08 83-page military whistleblowing report, which influenced Edward Snowden's decision to circumvent Congress and release his information directly to the American people. The report was written by an Army officer and psychological warfare analyst at Booz Allen Hamilton, the same defense contractor that employed Snowden. This analyst had a TSSCI clearance and worked in counterterrorism at the State Department.

6:40 U.S. Special Operations Command, and U.S. Central Command in D.C. and in Florida. The report answers the following. Why did Eric Snowden feel he had to immediately go public? What connects Booz Allen, Hamilton, the NSA, the CIA, UBS, the Union Bank of Switzerland, and terrorist threat finance conspiracy and cover-up? Who is the Swiss banker?

7:08 Entrapped by the CIA, whose identity was discovered by Snowden during his time with CIA in Geneva, Switzerland. Who are Booz Allen Hamilton players? Edward Snowden, Scott Bennett, Mike McConnell, and James Clapper. Who are the National Security Agency whistleblowers Thomas Drake, William Benny, and J. Kirk Wiebe? Answers.

7:37 Snowden went public because he had no choice. We discovered what had happened to Second Lieutenant Scott Bennett when he filed reports through official channels and knew the only chance to warn Americans was by telling them. Booz Allen Hamilton managed people and operations in terrorist threat finance for the military and the intelligence community, yet altered an analyst reported yet.

8:07 After an analyst reported Swiss bank issues, he was fired. The report buried. The Swiss banker, Brad Birkenfeld, was indicted, convicted, and jailed after he exposed the Union Bank of Switzerland, UBS, terrorist threat finance connection to the Department of Justice and the intelligence agencies.

8:34 Scott Bennett was a Booz Allen Hamilton associate and army officer who worked as a terrorist threat finance analyst at U.S. CENTCOM and was indicted, tried, and convicted on charges after he sent two reports up the chain of command. One predicted the Benghazi attack. The other exposed the conspiracy and cover-up of UBS, Birkenfeld, CIA.

9:03 terrorist threat finance connection. And for those of you asking, he was an army reservist. So he was civilianly employed by Booz Allen Hamilton. Ironically, Birkenfeld and Bennett ended up in the same unit in the same prison and compared notes, each connecting the other's dots to arrive at a terrifying conclusion. Mike McConnell was the director of National Intelligence, DNI.

9:33 during 2007-8 and saw the intelligence reports from CIA about UBS Birkenfeld. McConnell is now the vice chairman of Booz Allen Hamilton and runs Cyberwar. James Clapper is also an ex-Booz Allen executive and presently the director of national intelligence. He has seen Snowden and Bennett's intel. No one in the government or Booz Allen Hamilton

10:03 has even been questioned in the terrorist finance UBS Birkenfeld CIA Booz Allen Hamilton connection ever. Clapper made the least untruthful statement before Congress when he lied about Snowden's NSA monitoring of Americans and failed to discuss Bennett's report confirming the UBS Birkenfeld CIA link Snowden released, as well as the connection to Booz Allen Hamilton.

10:32 Both Snowden and Bennett shared. NSA whistleblower Thomas Drake, William Binney, and J. Kirk Wiebe were indicted, prosecuted, and lives trashed after legally exposing illegality by the NSA. Most disturbing of all, Leon Panetta, Secretary of Defense, was a Booz Allen Hamilton man as well.

11:03 This is only an excerpt. The entire 83-page report may be obtained, and then he gives you some contact information. He goes on to say, in Mel Gibson's masterpiece film, Braveheart, there is a scene where the nobleman who betrayed William Wallace on the battlefield, abandoning him during the fight in favor of bribe money and political title, is asleep in the subsidized bed.

11:33 tossing and turning as he's tormented by a nightmare of a blue-faced, painted, sword-swinging Wallace galloping on horseback against the backdrop of flames, chasing after him, startling him awake in terror. As he whispers, relieved that it was just a dream, the bedchamber's door suddenly burst open by Wallace atop a horse.

12:02 As he rides in, steps onto the bed, unfurls a massive iron ball and chain, and swirls and smashes it down on the face of the traitor. I anticipate this letter will no doubt have the same effect on certain people. For right now, somewhere in the dark cubicles of the U.S. government.

12:20 There's a nervous, twitching cabal of parasite lawyers, bureaucrats from the White House, the intelligence community, Congress, the media, and the military who have been dreading and desperately trying to bury and stop this report from ever reaching the American public. Obstructionists whose skullduggery must now, with the weight of momentum behind this letter, come to a career face-smashing end and their deeds exposed for the acts of treason they are.

12:51 Nearly 40 years ago, a small team of men stood before a judge and tried to quietly settle a burglary incident. The strangeness of the incident, the military intelligence CIA backgrounds of the men, the DNC headquarters as the target, led a group of investigative journalists to shame the press establishment by successfully doing what no other news media would at the time.

13:18 They began asking questions and looking deeper. They discussed a political plot, triggered a congressional investigation, and as more men were dragged in to testify, revealed a government-orchestrated conspiracy which eventually toppled a president. With delusions of infallible kingship, it was the story of the decade that rocked the legal foundations of our republic.

13:44 Then a decade later, a military officer answered the questions of Congress about the duties he performed for his president. Somehow, all without the president's knowledge, out of love of country. Obviously, he means the Contra affair. When another American intelligence operative, a CIA agent, testified before Congress about how she was targeted and persecuted in order to hinder her husband,

14:14 who was exposing lies that were being used to justify a war to make up the brave new world, cleansed of extremist ideologies, which included certain outspoken American political groups as seen by the recent IRS persecution of conservative Tea Party groups, the parallels of the Nixon-Watergate conspiracy, Lieutenant Colonel Oliver Norse-Iran Contra obstruction of Congress scandal, and Valerie Plame's

14:42 vindictive exposure, and persecution are all interconnected by substance and innuendo to this latest UBS counter-terrorist threat financing, Anna Rolling Stone's story, Too Big to Jail. Only this is far worse. Matt Taibbi's article, Too Big to Jail, in the February 28, 2013 issue of Rolling Stone, exposes the connection between terrorist

15:11 threat financing and international banks like HSBC, which of course we've exposed as well. Unfortunately, it's only half the story. The Rolling Stones article reveals only the tip of the oil black iceberg of government corruption with regard to terrorist financing, global banks, defense contractors, and intentional military intelligence failures. Now, of course, we've

15:40 basically come to the conclusion that there's no organic terrorist organizations. They basically are all created, funded, trained by intelligence services. The real story revolves around a whistleblowing report written by a U.S. Army officer and terrorist finance analyst to U.S. Civil Affairs Psychological Operations Command on September 25, 2012, a secret Senate hearing.

16:08 An assassination attempt by the Department of Justice against the whistleblower and financial intelligence sharing failures at the highest levels of government, which can only be explained as either a treasonous conspiratorial manipulation of information by the DOJ and the intelligence community against the military, or a pathetic and scandalous bureaucratic blunder, which has spilled the blood of service members unnecessarily.

16:38 which wasted tens of millions of dollars and exhausted our nation to the point of fatigue. The Army officer had extensive experience at U.S. Special Operations Command, U.S. Central Command, and the State Department in the Counterterrorism Office, where he had worked multidimensionally as a psychological warfare analyst and defense contractor. He had a TSSCI clearance, one of the highest in the nation.

17:07 This officer wrote two whistleblower reports to Congress. One examined impending psychological warfare attacks against the American people and the military. The other exposed and analyzed terrorist threat financing by international banks and the intentional cover-up by civilian U.S. government officials. One report warned of the Benghazi Libya attacks.

17:37 The other addressed the deeper, more insidious aspects of the issues raised in Matt Taibbi's recent Rolling Stones article about HSBC, terrorist bank accounts, and the concerted effort to punish and silence whistleblowers who discovered and reported intelligence to authorities whose job it was to use such intelligence to defend the nation.

18:07 with secret foreign bank accounts and then covering it up and silencing the whistleblower who reported it. Nobody quite does it better than the U.S. government, more specifically the Department of Justice and the U.S. Senate. After you're reading this article in an American publication, then it means the U.S. media has not abandoned its sacred post of freedom in vanguard of democracy.

18:38 which of course we didn't read it. We read it in this book. Or the internet unplugged as a EKG monitor of the U.S. Constitution's life support. If you're not reading it in an American publication, then they've abandoned their post, their oath, and refused to speak truth, stuck their collective heads in the sand, along with congressmen, senators, who've read the report.

19:06 and shamelessly sold their birthright for the sour pottage of Obama's Orwellian patriotism to a paranoid new world of drone-enforced executive orders. If the American media is not publishing this, then you must thank the outside world's media for standing up for what is right and true. The truth is a report written by a defense contractor and army officer, blah, blah, blah.

19:35 This report exposed and analyzed in great detail how the Department of Justice, the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations under Senator Carl Levin, and then Senator Barack Obama, the Senate Armed Services Committee, also under Senator Carl Levin, the Justice Department, the State Department.

19:59 and certain agencies in the intelligence community colluded to betray, prosecute, and cover up UBS whistleblower Brad Birkenfeld for exposing and reporting on UBS terrorist threat finance connections. This report was written to Colonel Jeffrey Jacobs, commander of the U.S. Civil Affairs Psychological Operations Command, on September 25, 2012.

20:25 After receiving no response, the Army officer felt compelled to send it to Congress and the Pentagon Inspector General a month later, out of duty and his oath. This illicit terrorist threat finance foreign bank connection indicated and was reported through this submission. The report was sent to Inspector General Lynn Hallbrooks.

20:55 as well as over 30 congressmen and senators, including the committees of armed forces, homeland security, terrorism, finance, and intelligence. It was an official whistleblower report. However, again, no response was given and nothing was done. The reason for this lack of response, of course, was one four-letter word, which seems to symbolize modern politic and military leaders, as well as the psychosis.

21:23 suffocating our sense of national identity. Fear. By revealing the existence of this connection between UBS and the Islamic terrorist, the military and intelligence community would be, once again, properly defined as bureaucrats in uniform, as efficient as a Maytag repairman with an unplugged phone. They would be seen as either failing to discover this terrorist threat,

21:50 finance dimension of the UBS Birkenfeld whistleblowing drama or intentionally failing to act despite their knowing, leaving them with the blood of servicemen on their hands from the bombs and bullets bought within the UBS wrapped dollars, similar to the pallets found in Iraq's early invasion. So fear governed the military defense contractor and intelligence community's response. Fear of exposure, accountability, repercussions.

22:20 against either their complicity or their ineptitude. Fehr also inspired politicians. Addicted to their re-election and neutered by political correctness, they frantically covered their ears, eyes, and mouth, assumed a fetal position of denial, hoping the report would just go away and perhaps the writer of it mysteriously disappear. They feared that since the report explained how an assassination attempt

22:51 may have been made by the Department of Justice against Brad Birkenfeld in the form of a forged letter sent to UBS claiming to be from Birkenfeld's friend portraying that Birkenfeld was revealing priority bank information, i.e. the terrorist bank accounts, to the Justice Department, which might open a Pandora's box under the Patriot Act, a marriage they had already forced upon the American people.

23:22 After all, the most logical party guilty of ordering an assassination attempt was the Department of Justice itself, specifically attorneys Kevin O'Connor and or Kevin Downing, who interestingly had ties to ex-mayor of New York, Rudy Giuliani, Abdullah Aziz, mentioned as an al-Qaeda financier in Matt Taibbi's recent article, Too Big to Jail.

23:52 and foreign banks. The report explained how one month after meeting with the DOJ officials and giving them his cell number, Birkenfeld's international banking friend from London had received a call from UBS asking him why he had sent them a letter exposing Birkenfeld's meeting with the Justice Department. He denied ever writing such a letter, obtained a copy of it, showed it to Birkenfeld,

24:18 and in shock and outrage at being violated, demanded to know what was going on. Birkenfeld then explained he was meeting with DOJ officials but couldn't discuss why. Despite confronting and demanding an explanation from the Justice Department about the letter, no response was given. The explanation was being written on the wall. Birkenfeld's revelations about Tara's financing by UBS

24:45 would expose accounts and activities by the U.S. government, CIA, which mentally, he calls them mentally medicated politicians simply didn't want to know. So in order to not have to suffer the strain of honesty and give an answer to the American people about UBS accounts being used to finance terrorist threats against American sons and daughters in the military, a plan was devised.

25:17 That plan would be to bait Birkenfeld into giving testimony before the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, chaired by Senator Levin, and then switch the discussion to American tax evasion and money laundering issues so that the Justice Department could entrap Birkenfeld in his own disclosures, despite him being promised immunity.

25:38 cobbled together a rickety legal case against him, then threatened prosecute and silence him with a plea deal that would remove him from the public eye via an NDA as quickly as possible. This is the real reason Carl Levin is rushing to retire from office. Conveniently, this would guarantee loyalty from the UBS chairman for America's Robert Wolf and bind him into becoming

26:10 a financial campaign donor and supporter of then-Senator Barack Obama, who was also on the committee and running for president of the U.S. against John McCain in 2008. Interestingly, Attorney General Eric Holder and Assistant Attorney General Lanny Burr worked for the law firm Covington & Burling and also represented UBS prior to them joining.

26:41 The Justice Department. This wasn't mentioned in Matt Taibbi's article explaining why Lanny Breuer and Eric Holder gave deferred prosecutions to big banks, including UBS. It was because they worked for these banks in the past. This is just like what we have seen over and over with these lawyers. And no doubt expected to again in the future. That deferred prosecution was given.

27:12 and had nothing to do with the red herring of saving jobs or destabilizing the financial markets. However, despite also being chairman of the Senate Armed Service Committee, Carl Levin refused to share any of the information disclosed by Birkenfeld about UPS financing terrorists through its secret Swiss accounts and internal instruments, such as the Optimus Foundation, OP.

27:41 T-I-M-U-S, with the Armed Services Organization, whose central mission was to combat, destroy, and prevent terrorist threat finance operations and networks. This organization was U.S. Central Command's terrorist threat finance team, managed by defense contractor Booz Allen Hamilton at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Florida. I know this because I was a member of the team.

28:08 And neither Senator Carl Levin nor President Barack Obama nor any member of the Congressional Committee ever allowed Brad Birkenfeld's testimony or financial information to be shared with the CENTCOM team. It was only after I met Brad Birkenfeld after he was imprisoned that I discovered how incredibly value his financial information was and how.

28:31 Much obscene skullduggery, corruption, and treason may have been committed against our military by allowing terrorist UBS financial networks to remain undisclosed, untargeted for political reasons. It was only after I spent months with Birkenfeld placing together all of the intelligence material, WikiLeaks, cables, bank statements, reports, letters, interview, he had accumulated in an effort to vindicate himself.

29:00 that I stumbled onto an outrageous irony and astonishing, if not miraculous, coincidence. My job had been to work within the military intelligence matrix to identify, analyze, track down, and destroy terrorist finance networks and operations. Yet the information most necessary for combating these terrorists was coming to me not from the intelligence community, but from a jail cell.

29:29 not from a professional military analyst, but from an imprisoned civilian banker. And never would we have met had the same government, which imprisoned him for whistleblowing about the Swiss bank financing terrorism, not also imprisoned me for discovering and trying to expose the same menace. Whether out of impossible coincidence or divine intervention, Brad Birkenfeld and I ended up

29:59 in the same prison, down the hall from each other. And upon seeing and discovering our individual stories formed a revelation that truth is indeed stranger than fiction. Here's where the story takes a turn towards bizarre and makes the wise seem foolish by showing how accidents can be appointments. I was given a direct commission.

30:31 As an officer in the United States Army Reserve, based on my experience at the Bush administration, advanced degrees and prior work in psychological warfare and intelligence analyst at the State Department and the U.S. Special Operations Command Military Joint Information Support Center. After completing officer training, I had been asked if I would consider becoming a terrorist threat financial analyst at U.S. Central Command and transferred to Tampa.

31:04 Within a month, it would be more than a nine to five job. It would be a mission to end the war on terror by destroying their network and source of money. I was told they desperately needed psychological operations and counterterrorism background and would infuse my defense contractor work into army duty so that I could work both and perform military drills at the same location.

31:30 Although it meant relocating my entire life from D.C. to Florida, I did it. I informed an Army battalion, 11th Psychological Operation Battalion in Washington, D.C. area and began the process of transferring to CENTCOM. I was given a special VIP flight aboard an executive jet by the SOCOM commander, Admiral Eric Olson.

31:58 and flew down with him personally to CENTCOM. And I was given temporary housing at McDeal. I arranged to live on base in order to facilitate my army unit transfer and also to be safer. I had a TSSCI, which meant I was at the top of the terrorist wishlist for beheading or extortion through family kidnapping, indoctrination training. I was told that you're now a target. Be careful. Over the next four months,

32:28 I was trained and worked in every dimension, product, and agency, which interfaced with terrorist financial networks and operations. I also found myself headbutting against worshipers of mediocrity and bureaucracy and the status quo as a government employee, which we all know is all too real. My personality and fearlessly aggressiveness, he found that odd.

33:01 He goes on to say that he despises simpletons, weaklings, blah, blah, blah. I had proven leadership skills. I despise bureaucratic inefficiencies. It was a very volatile chemistry of personalities in the unit when I showed up. He also goes on to say that the Obama military intelligence finance secrets.

33:37 would wreck his relationship at this unit because he was getting into things that made a lot of people uncomfortable. The Swiss bank, like UBS and HSBC, had in fact been financing terrorists and the intelligence community was concealing it. Now in the interest of space and copyright,

34:06 Nevermind national security, I cannot express here the vast knowledge and experience I absorbed while on this adventure, only to say that is quite the voyage. He goes on to disparage the interworkings of the intelligence community and how he was frustrated in attempts to

34:36 do his job. The terrorist enemy doesn't hit us where we're strong or protected, but where we're the weakest and most vulnerable. That was his attitude. I went into the job as a terrorist threat finance analyst to examine, probe, and dissect all aspects of the operation. I familiarized myself with all of the U.S. agencies, military combatant commanders, blah, blah, blah. I was given a workstation in a joint

35:07 interagency operations center also known sometimes as the joint interagency group and work with an assortment of government agencies including the state department treasury justice homeland security cia immigrations and customs and others that are classified i was tasked with interviewing all the different agency teams to discover their expertise in

35:38 terrorist threat finance and to formulate recommendations to improve functionality. This meant identifying duplicative and unproductive operations within the agencies, developing plans timetables for eliminating them, and synthesizing the best practices and expertise of various government and military agencies into the Booz Allen Hamilton team. Of course, this was somewhat unpopular and strenuously

36:09 I've been there, I know. Since they had formed a nest in CENTCOM and built up a bureaucratic culture, immediately after September 11, 2001, in typical bureaucracy, they viewed each worker and task of their particular agency as essential, regardless if it was being duplicated in other areas.

36:35 Since one thing military personnel and bureaucrats or their subcontractors are aware of, bureaucrats hate to lose power to the private sector. The unfortunate result was a military government intelligence community dysfunctionality with regard to terrorist threat finance and a refusal to communicate and share information. Again, I've lived this firsthand.

37:06 It was a surreal turf war between military commanders fighting for power, government agencies occupying space without really producing anything, and private sector contractors trying to work within the dynamics. Most offensive to me as a military officer was the fact that this power struggle between CENTCOM, SOCOM, and civilian government agencies and defense contractors.

37:34 was extending the killing, maiming, and suffering of military personnel by dragging out the war unnecessarily. By wasting time, resources, and refusing information about the Swiss banks, such as UBS, which the terrorists used to finance their personnel and operations, the sad result of America's security was undermined and our sons and daughters were sacrificed on a battlefield.

38:04 My attempts to synthesize the intelligence and triangulate the Swiss banks like UBS as a hub between Iranian, European terrorist networks, as well as design psychological operation campaigns, I was regularly blocked and discouraged from delving too deep or being too aggressive. Additionally, my recommendations for filtering Islamic lecturers.

38:31 In order to avoid infecting young soldiers' minds with ambitious contradictory propaganda was also scorned. It seemed endangering the mission by crippling soldiers with the paralysis of moral confusion on the battlefield and more acceptable to a risk that could be confronted by avoiding it. The military higher commands modus operandi.

38:59 seem to be unofficially apply political correctness non-judgmentally to all issues requiring judgment. You can hear people all day long on X talk about this happening after 9-11. Although I honestly believed and still do that my application for creative imagination to the counterterrorism analytical framework

39:30 was helping military commanders formulate better strategies and operations, as well as improving interagency intelligence sharing, I soon discovered how much it was also feared. It seemed rocking the boat was gaining the attention of people who, despite paying attention as a matter of temperament, was opposed to any recommendations. Because one week after a moving truck delivered his household goods into the apartment on base,

40:01 Arranged and paid for by Booz Allen Hamilton, I was stopped in my car at the front gate, arrested at gunpoint by military police, taken against my will, and interrogated for 12 hours under conditions that would have been defined as torturous. At first, I thought it was a training exercise to test a person's aptitude. The reason being, I had just completed a week-long training course in advanced critical thinking.

40:31 after being the first person in CENTCOM's history to test out of a prior mandatory beginning and intermediate course. However, the missing component of subtle delicacy and psychological complexity was applied by a guy by the name of Edward Garcia and Lieutenant Colonel Martin Mitchell. MacDill Air Force Base Security Forces and its commanders

41:03 had now shed the blood of one of their own and shamed America. Despite my being a U.S. Army officer and counter-terrorist defense contractor, despite my having worked at the State Department, U.S. Special Operations Command, the Pentagon, despite the piles of paper briefing and intelligence material I had written about America's enemy, I was now being treated like one. I was then berated and accused of rude.

41:32 by a rude Air Force policeman of incorrectly filling out my on-base housing application forms and not properly registering my firearm locked in a gun safe, even though they had only arrived the week prior and had already been acknowledged at the entrance gate by inspectors. Here's where the story takes a turn. I was then handed a be on the lookout flyer with my photo and description on the front of it. I found out later.

42:02 from an officer friend who had called me from Afghanistan that this flyer had been sent out to every military base around the world. With this, I had officially been given a burn notice as my identity and clearance had been shared with every terrorist looking for an analyst to kill. They knew I now had to go underground. I couldn't help but shake my head and half smile at the realization of passing the Rubicon. It seemed...

42:32 That smearing my name had begun before my explanation of the situation had been heard. Judging by language used to describe me, somehow a crime was being cobbled together, causing my nose to wrinkle at the once flavored aroma of military patriotism. It also reminded me of the betrayal of CIA officer who...

43:03 He goes on to talk about the whole Valerie Flame incident. He says, in a well-protected sequence of moves, I was then handed a pink violation ticket, an unusually long complex of series of warrants and letters removing me from the base and my position. Although it was a superficial level, I knew this entire situation.

43:32 was outrageous. I also had an odd feeling of something bigger lurking in the background. Back at my battalion, the brigade commander made a surprise visit and informed us of an upcoming policy change in the army, largely due to negative stigma given to psychological operations by defense contractors. This was somewhat jaw-dropping. I had worked closely with Mike Furlong.

44:02 at the State Department Counterterrorism Unit, and he knew and knew that he had been fired and locked out of his office because of CIA complaints. He was too efficient in his special operations endeavors. Interesting, later that year, Rolling Stones magazine would report a story about a psychological operations officer being prosecuted by the Army for refusing to analyze and target U.S. senators with behavior changing.

44:32 communications, i.e. psychological operations. After hearing this, the author wrote a lengthy report addressing psychological warfare impact for policy changes that would have on troops and enemies. It was submitted up the chain of command to the brigade commander, Colonel Burley. It was this report which forecasted the attack on U.S. Embassy in Libya two years later.

45:06 It was this report that could have saved lives. Mysteriously, one month after submitting this report and nine months later after the McDeal incident, I received an indictment letter for not properly filling out my housing forms and failing to register my firearm in time. Again, this is just crazy. It seemed his report, which was originally...

45:39 asked for had struck a nerve and was a roadblock for someone's agenda. It was a quintessential straw that broke the camel's back. Despite my request for a military attorney to investigate the matter and be appointed to defend me since the military situation involving my transfer, I was refused counsel and ignored. Amazingly, I believe unconstitutionally

46:07 The military, for the first time, surrendering its jurisdiction to the Department of Justice and a civilian agency was being allowed to prosecute a military matter. Now, I don't regard this as a military matter, and I disagree with him on this point. He was there as a civilian employee of Booz Allen Hamilton, not the U.S. military. The fact that he happens to be a reserve officer, he was in civilian status. And yes, civilians can live on military bases.

46:35 covered that. That's why all of the Trump officials are living on military bases. You just have to pay part of your salary for the rent of those military bases. So he was not entitled to a military lawyer. He's wrong on that case or on that point. The civilian attorney that I had retained then filed a motion to dismiss stating the military police had violated certain protections.

47:05 He used the example that it forbids the military from exercising police powers over civilians off base and beyond military jurisdiction. But again, the gun offense was on a military installation. Okay. And you give up, if you're on a federal installation, you give up the protected rights. You just need to know that. You're under the rules.

47:36 Of that federal installation. Which is why some people. Even when they're a guest of a military person. Don't want to be on a military base. I mean we give up our second amendment rights. We're not allowed to have our guns. On military installations. It's ridiculous. Since they taught me how to shoot a gun. But it's true. So he goes on. However the magistrate judge. Unwilling to rule against the military. Or justice department.

48:09 So he's awaiting trial. The prosecutor, Ms. Sarah Sweeney, invented several different scenarios and had him followed and engaged in, according to him, illegal harassment. She was later disciplined for causing one prosecutor to commit suicide. That's crazy. Without delving into the details of the trial, and he gives you a link to read the whole,

48:48 story, which is important. How Islamic paranoia, political correctness and defense contractors are crippling American military commanders. That was the name of it. He talks about the government corruption ensued and talking about the prosecutor making the impression that she was fat.

49:21 pulled down the microphone, and in a condescending voice, unfurled a confusing tapestry of half-truths to a jury who had no military experience. Amazingly, she also had the gall to dress up a special assistant U.S. attorney in an Air Force uniform to deceive the jury in believing the military was engaging in a joint prosecution against him.

49:53 That's crazy. I later found out that the Army investigative board hearing that the military never participated in was not aware nor had given permission for Sarah Sweeney to employ military legal resources precisely because this would have allowed me to demand a military defense attorney. The prosecutor's argument was interesting. She basically complained.

50:25 how he was a lone psychological warfare analyst that had single-handedly outmaneuvered and checkmated the entire U.S. military intelligence community, and that by using his charisma, encyclopedic mind, and hypnotic communication skills, was able to commandeer the private executive jet of the SOCOM commander, seduce female housing.

50:55 contractors into giving him an apartment on base and then intimidated military security guards into delivering his gun safe with guns onto a top secret base, which McDill is not a top secret base. She also went on to say how the U.S. military reaction when Bennett revealed his activities was one of shock, disbelief, and embarrassment.

51:24 What she failed to mention was that because I was an army officer, nothing I had done was a violation of any military regulation or policy. That's not true. You can't have a gun in your personal facilities on base. So that part was wrong. The Justice Department was simply engaging in an agenda. He goes on to say that

51:56 The ironic was the fact that I had executed his job as part of a top secret plan duties that had already been agreed upon by Booz Allen Hamilton with the U.S. government. Although the military protocol expert witness, Major Mark Brewer, had testified that nothing I had done violated military law, the jury.

52:27 had been prejudiced and misled by the performance of the assistant US attorney, the government made a paperwork error appear to be a Fort Hood shooting plot and wore the Captain America myth to shame the jury into complicity, according to him. To make a long story short, the jury found him guilty.

53:00 causing the U.S. attorney to dance about uncontrollably like a puppet. The judge then proclaimed all of my firearms and ammunition could be confiscated by the state beside them being legal. And after a few handfuls of information provided by the prosecutor said that I was remanded into prison and then sentenced five months later where he wasn't released.

53:33 on bail pending that hearing. Five months later, I returned for sentencing and instead of the expected one to seven month guideline, he was given three years in jail. For the next several months, he was launching around in prison and he describes a whole bunch of the books that

54:09 He was reading, I won't bore you with those. He said that he spent several trips being shuttled around to different prisons, which of course is just what they did to the January 6th people. Being treated to filthy conditions inside America's Bureau of Prisons was an education itself.

54:40 And he goes on talking about some of the people that he met during that time period. But what's weird is when you go back and you read these accounts of people that have singly suffered the same thing that was done massively in the January 6th situation, you realize that

55:06 They were able to pick off people one by one in the past and treat this way. And I found it really interesting when, I don't know if you guys listened to the interview that I did with my neighbor that was caught up in the January 6th, but her and her fiance talked about the movement around as a psychological warfare tactic of disorientating people.

55:35 to the point of giving up. That if you are sentenced to prison and you're put in a prison cell, even if it's a small prison cell, there's a routine that your brain can wrap itself around and you can function within what you have now defined as your home, away from home.

55:58 The constant moving of these prisoners around steals even that last vestige of humanity from them to psychologically torture them in addition to be wrongfully imprisoned. And I found this, again, now that we've went through all of this other stuff and experienced all of this stuff, some very striking similarities.

56:26 to this guy's case. So I'm going to leave it there. I just wanted to give you his background and how he ended up in prison. And then we're going to move on to the financial pieces of this because it fits in with the article that I wrote this morning about the unveiling of

56:55 this financial apparatus that when you start doing the, the fitting all of the pieces together, I was struck by this total encapsulation of this overall system within a system. And that's the financial piece of this, that

57:22 I could, in a matter of a couple of days, because people in this arena now provide me with information, take something that seemed like completely different things, like Ghost doing his show on the Egmont, you know, and he had just stumbled across it and texting him back and forth.

57:51 last week about why it's important because I had come across it before. And then on a completely separate plane, I'm talking to the guy that's going to be working on the brain chart and he had sent Warhamster and I some screenshots and one of the screenshots that he just so happened to take because it's a huge map.

58:17 And I'm just clicking through the screenshots in the DMs. And one of them is the subsidiaries of the Royal International Institute of Institution. I don't know. R-I-I-A. I always get them. The Royal International Institute Affairs or whatever. That they had.

58:44 subsidiaries, which I knew, I just didn't know them by name, throughout Europe. And I'm looking down and I find the name Edmont as the name of the institute, which is the subsidiary to RIIA in London, and it's called Edmont Institute. And I'm like, what is the chances that that's connected to the Edmont agency in Canada?

59:14 Well, it's a direct correlation. It's named after the same family. And it's an elite family that goes back a very long time. It's a castle in Belgium named after this family. And that's where their version of the CFR meets. And the fact that that gave birth to...

59:39 What would be, so you know how the central banks of central banks, the central bank of central banks is the BIS. Well, the financial intelligence agency of FinCEN is Edmont. So you have all of these, they're like in 170 countries, like literally everywhere.

1:00:04 which probably doesn't matter because I think we're up to 190 countries now. So all of the major countries that are involved in money laundering are a partner in this. So they have their own, basically in a military structure, what you would consider a FinCEN detachment, like our treasury has a FinCEN detachment that data-wise is tied to Egmont in Canada.

1:00:32 they can do research queries on transactions that are suspicious. So they're able to get data to track financial. And once you realize that this system exists and was created in the 1990s, it immediately begs the question, why the hell aren't we using it? Why aren't we using it to track money laundering?

1:01:02 Why is trillions of dollars out there floating around in illicit narcotics, weapons trafficking, and everything else that they're involved in, including human trafficking? Why is that all allowed to exist? Well, because they have this as window dressing. And I think it's very odd that as soon as Promise Software was outside of the legal...

1:01:32 gate and stolen from Mr. Hamilton and Innslaw, the company, that this magic FinCEN organization pops up. And of course, we know that Promise Software had backdoors in it so that the intelligence agencies can track money laundering and who's doing it so that they can take over networks.

1:02:03 narcotics trafficking that's outside of their control or whatever. I just, the timing is too coincidental for me in all of this. And so is the legacy of where it came from. It is part of the control mechanism that allows us to have a feeling of comfort that they're doing all they can do. I mean, they have this elaborate network set up. So surely they're catching everything that they can, except for they never catch any of it to include the...

1:02:31 DEA guy that was recently arrested, who did get caught finally under Trump with Robert Sensei. So anyway, that's it for today. I noticed a lion eyes up here. I knew he would be. Yeah, I mean, it's interesting. I mean, from the equities and stock side of things,

1:03:00 The SEC has been trying to build the consolidated audit trail for the past 15 years, which is designed to basically give the SEC, if they need to, a view into every single securities transaction out there. But we're still on the old system of blue sheets. And yeah, there's some privacy concerns about the consolidated audit trail.

1:03:28 But it sounds like between Promise and FinCEN and everything else, certain people out there already have access to a lot of information. And at least on the Securities and Exchange Commission side of things, it's still really hard to track down a lot of transactions. So I guess that's thought number one.

1:03:57 on us, at least coming from equities. So I agree on the security side of it, but I'm talking about the blatant cash money laundering. I mean, number one, I think what happened to this whistleblower here was horrendous. Also what happened to Birkenfeld was too bad. UBS obviously had a whole bunch of KYC failures.

1:04:27 And it's kind of funny how any nefarious activity out there is always going to hide behind various duties of confidentiality by everybody working on stuff. Swiss banking secrecy is pretty famous, but the sad part is...

1:04:52 is that Birkenfeld wasn't prosecuted in Switzerland. He was prosecuted for other stuff in the United States that didn't really seem to be that, you know, that seemed to, you know, kind of go out of its way to prosecute a guy. Yeah. And I mean, it seems like they handled, the DOJ just handled that really badly. And then, of course, the retaliation against the guy from Booz Allen Hamilton, that screwed up too.

1:05:23 People can probably guess how I feel about management consulting firms. I probably feel the same way as most other white-collar employees do about them. But I just think that there's too many problems with this whole story, and there's just too much retaliation going on.

1:05:48 it's clear that they were probably trying to conceal the true source of funds behind the terror financing. Exactly. And I feel exactly the same way you do about the consulting people. I've had to work with them extensively when I was on active duty, doing multiple different activities. And what's interesting to me is,

1:06:17 Because a lot of these are controlled by the intelligence networks and it's kind of their way into the Defense Department. You know, we've talked about Booz Allen Hamilton and we've talked about Rand and we've talked about all of these government contractors. It is literally their way in the back door. And these consulting contracts exploded after 9-11.

1:06:47 You had it before it, but they exploded after 9-11. And they started under Clinton with the outsourcing and the downsizing of the military. That was the excuse that they used, that we were going to save money and we didn't have to pay the retirement of these people and all this other stuff. But as soon as they downsized the military, the contracts exploded in cost.

1:07:16 For example, and this is nothing pertaining to what we're talking about here today, but if you go to a base, a military base, when I first came in, airmen on Saturday and Sunday did all the lawn maintenance. You mowed your squadron headquarters. You mowed around your office building. That was details. You had to do them.

1:07:38 And that was the beauty of getting promoted to NCO status is you may, as a low NCO, be a detail supervisor, but you didn't have to mow anymore. You didn't have to pick weeds. You didn't have to do any of that crap. Well, in the downsizing, that was all contracted out. Nobody mows the lawn that's in the military on any military base. That's all contracted out.

1:08:02 Now, it didn't cost the military, other than the maintenance of the lawnmowers, a damn thing because I was already being paid. So they outsourced this at a very low rate initially. And then you go back over time within the first 10 years, those contracts had like quadrupled in what they were costing. They cost more than if you'd have just hired more airmen to mow the lawn.

1:08:29 including their retirement, because they don't get paid peanuts anyway. So it was a guise to start outsourcing military capability. And once they did the low hanging fruit, like lawn maintenance and stuff like that, they moved up the chain. And that's where this explosion in consultants occurred. So the military at the headquarters at the Pentagon is limited to a certain footprint.

1:08:57 And there was massive, during the downsizing, empty offices in the Pentagon. And so they eventually are overflowing with defense contractors. And many of these defense contractors are in bed with the CIA and everybody else. So they have immediate access and the security clearance to give them information that they shouldn't have access to.

1:09:24 They also, because of their presence on many things like this terrorist financing, they can skew the results of it. They can steer commanders outside of finding them. It's this unwelding, completely meshed together now.

1:09:45 apparatchik that results in people who stumble across meaningful information that could make a difference in finding the bad guys because the bad guys are the CIA. And this is what happens to anybody that's on active duty or one of the consultants that's a good guy. If he stumbles across that information, he will be dealt with accordingly. SR, go ahead.

1:10:17 Thank you, Colonel. I appreciate that. And thank you all for attending here on Spaces In on Rumble. Now, let me see if I understood this correctly. They hired this guy or this guy was hired. He worked for Booz Allen Hamilton. He's hired to come out and track what's going on with terrorist financials. Correct. OK. Inside the way it sounded to me inside of a week.

1:10:47 This guy's got a bolo out on his ass. He just moved into housing, base housing. He was getting settled in. Next thing you know, he's got a bolo out on his ass. Well, if you don't want to make somebody useful, that's what you do to them. Well, I understand that, but I can't help but sit here and think for a minute and say, didn't these guys know what they were asking for? Well, who are you saying these guys?

1:11:22 What guys? The people who were asking him to come out there and do what they asked him to do. Yes, but not to the extent that he did it. They didn't want him to find anything. He was supposed to just be there to make work and shuffle papers around and avoid finding the CIA in anything. He failed miserably at not finding anything. He found stuff. That's not allowed.

1:11:58 I guess what really surprises me is, didn't the CIA know that this was going to happen? Well, obviously they didn't. They vet practically everybody they throw in there. They think that, well, first of all, there's a hubris that they think that they have hidden their actual nefarious activity so well.

1:12:27 that the peons can't find it. And they also are very certain that if a peon stumbles across something they're not supposed to, whether they're a contractor or active duty or whatever, that they have enough people groomed in these organizations that they're going to take care of anybody that happens to stumble across real information. And it works beautifully.

1:12:57 And they set people, I mean, these are the same people that put drugs. Ghost and I were just talking about that, that supposedly, according to the Colombian president, there was an operation to set him up in the United States to get him arrested. They, whoever, whatever company runs the dam in.

1:13:24 Colombia. We were just talking about that this morning. There's all kinds of reports of flooding out there. And so as the president of the country, he takes a helicopter out there to survey the damage and they try to sabotage his landing when he's coming back from the helicopter. They turned all the lights off. Later, his own intelligence tells him that that was an assassination attempt.

1:13:47 So he goes and lands somewhere else. So they have various ways of taking care of people that stumble across the information that is out there, but they feel like that they've hidden it enough that someone isn't just going to stumble across it. And if they happen to stumble across it, they have avenues like throwing him in jail, just like they did with January 6th.

1:14:15 They have avenues at their disposal because the Justice Department is corrupt, the FBI is corrupt, elements of it. And they're hidden inside of the bureaucracies waiting to take action against anybody that stumbles across anything. This has been going on for decades, as we've illustrated. All I can say is, wow. Yeah, exactly.

1:14:47 I'm glad I didn't stumble across any of this while I was still on active duty. It would have been fireworks. War hamster, you're being awful quiet. Oh, it's just because it's a topic I find incredibly boring. Just kidding. You know, EBS, we did a whole show on that. My former employer, for those who don't know, having filled out SAR special, I'm sorry, suspicious activity reports, I can tell you they track about.

1:15:19 95% of all cross-border currency transactions. But there is a shadow banking system. And Illini, I will tell you. By the way, Illini, I just got off the phone with my buddy who lives in Champaign-Urbana. So I was thinking about you. There are so many ways of moving money across borders. That's before things like Bitcoin came around. And if they wanted to track it, they could. And it's what I've always said about the cartels. If you want to shut down the drug trafficking, we'll know they're serious when they go after the banks.

1:15:48 Because there's a paper trail on almost every transaction. Eventually, every dollar has to flow back into the mainstream channel to be spent. And all you got to do is trace it backwards. There's exceptions to that, but everything is traceable if there's a will to do it. And so when the Colombian president comes to the White House and tells President Trump if he wants to shut down the narco networks, he needs to address the U.S. banks.

1:16:18 That probably had a lot of people crapping. And just as we were talking on Ghost Show earlier, the Edmont kicked Columbia out of their financial intelligence network, cut them off, because he announced in Columbia before he even came that he knew, he had traced.

1:16:45 And he knows what banks in the United States are doing this. And that meeting at the White House had to literally terrify that network for what Warhamster just said. They can trace it. And that's why they shut Columbia off from being a partner in that financial intelligence network because he made the bold statement.

1:17:12 That he had used it for that purpose. Yeah, as long as HSBC is still in business, we know they're not serious. And I'll put Citibank, my other former employer, in the same category because they own Banamax. And we know, you know, they still own part of Banamax. I think still control. It's, you know, it's always been there, the ability to do it. You know, we knew this in the 80s in the first war on drugs. What was the war on the money laundering of the drugs? Always follow the money.

1:17:41 And they could if they wanted to, but they don't. We'll see if that changes. But, you know, I've tweeted about it enough times that I go, you know, I've said follow the money a million times, but I go, they're not serious about shutting down the cartels until they go after the banks. And that's period. And, you know, we know they're doing stuff with blockchain as well. You know, we know about Bitcoin's origins. I mean, all these things are money laundering.

1:18:06 What's interesting is they were better at tracking that kind of stuff before the digital age than they are today. The banking system has more holes today than it did 60, 70 years ago. I believe that. Colonel, the funny thing is that if you have access to most banking transactions, if there's a relationship between different parties, including illicit finance, if they do one transaction,

1:18:33 If they do one cash transaction, obviously there's a lot of plausible deniability. But if that transaction keeps happening over and over and over again, in terms of a longstanding relationship, even if they go through multiple banks, there's ways to find it statistically. And ultimately come up with a statistical proof based at least on frequentist stats saying that this relationship here seems to be happening a whole lot.

1:19:03 And trillions of dollars worth. Yeah. You, you should be, I mean, it's, it's, it's work. Um, I was, um, you know, equity stat arm. Um, so, so, you know, finding some of those relationships, there's, there are tools to do that. Um, you know, some are better than others. Um, but you can prove a statistical relationship.

1:19:27 And that's what's most interesting to me that just post-World War II, obviously it goes back further than that, but just post-World War II, the amount of escalating drug trafficking and the financial piece of that all having to, at some point, clean the money. And somehow...

1:19:55 We've never been able to even put a dent in it. That's the piece that I keep coming back to as Warhamster just articulated. Until they put a dent in it financially, they are not serious about it. The mechanisms that we've spent billions of dollars on, whether it's the chemical eradication of

1:20:25 the opium fields or the coca fields or whatever, they're just literally throwing our money away. You could have a few very smart financial people do exactly what Illini and Warhamster was just articulating and shut the entire network down. And you have to ask yourself,

1:20:51 With all of the money and all of the drug czars that has existed all of this time, why hasn't that ever been done? You can only come up with one conclusion because no one wanted it done. Sean, go ahead. Hello, Colonel. Thank you very much for letting me speak. Yeah, with regard to all you're talking about, I've listened to your spaces a lot and they're really great.

1:21:27 The forces that we're up against here, the people that you talk about, they are criminals. There's no doubt about that. Just look at Epstein. And for every Epstein, there's about 30 or 40 other guys doing the same thing Epstein is doing. Right. We know that. Yes. Right. So, yeah, exactly. So it's not going to – the fact that this has all come out in the public now is not going to put an end to this because this guy died or whatever, right?

1:21:57 There is an idea that maybe they're just putting this into the public domain just to get, you know, like predictive programming, you know, put that idea out there. This is who we are, what we do, and you can't do anything about it. There's that. But also there's this idea that these guys like to party. You're right. Right. You know, whether it's South American drug cartels or the global elite in Europe or America, these guys like to party.

1:22:26 And that's, I think, what's coming out with the whole Epstein thing. When these guys party, like, bad things happen. Right. So we have to look at these global events that culminate in a human sacrifice, I think, and take a closer look at that. I agree. Because that, at the end of the day, is kind of the end result of all of this chaos that they create.

1:22:56 bad for humanity in general because it all ends up being the sacrifice of human life. And I think I disagree in the predictive programming piece of that at this point. It's been known for a long time that these things exist.

1:23:21 And I see that you're from Ireland. The European has exposed networks like this, like Mark Dutro, Mountbatten in the UK. This has been known for a very long time. I think, and I'm praying that this time is different. You have people now that are exposing

1:23:50 it, not for the purpose of taunting us, but for eradicating it and to the best that they can. And I think that you have to, there's so many people like we learned in our last book with some of the people that were around JFK that just literally want to put their head in the sand.

1:24:19 I think we're at the tipping point at this point where you no longer can put your head in the sand. And this is going to be dealt with. And I think the whole world leadership with Putin and his exposure, what was going on in Ukraine and all of those things are doing that. And I don't think they're being done in a disjointed way.

1:24:49 I think they're being done collectively so that something can be done about it. And like I said, that's, I think, a prayer that we all share, but only time will tell. And Warhamster's right. We will know that they're serious when they get to the banks. Illini, go ahead. I think, you know, there's a lot of evidence out there that there's going to be multiple Epsteins.

1:25:19 I always kind of had the feeling that all the tentacles kind of go back together. Obviously, with the Franklin case, which was 1989, Omaha, Nebraska, you had Lawrence King, who ran the Franklin Credit Union, flying kids out to Washington, D.C. with Craig Spence. It was reported in The Washington Times. Kids gave sworn testimony, said that there were satanic ceremonies after they got pressed on it.

1:25:50 But in that one, you had the Republican establishment. You had kids getting tours of the White House. You had George H.W. Bush. Epstein has references to Kissinger.

1:26:07 And David Rockefeller put Epstein on the Council on Foreign Relations, and he describes it in the first 15 minutes of his video with Bannon. So I'm trying to find the link analysis right now where these two guys – where these two scandals connect. And they probably do because Larry King was allegedly military intelligence in Vietnam.

1:26:36 Craig Spence made references that he was a CIA operative. And then, of course, Epstein has connections to Rumler and these other people. It seems to go back to the agency, and I'll bet you you can probably find a tie to Rockefeller or Kissinger somewhere in both of these. And then, of course, besides that, you've got Adnan Khashoggi, who Revaron X.

1:27:06 went through his FBI file and showed that the FBI suspected him of running a honeypot operation out of Las Vegas Sands in 73. And then finally, of course, you got Watergate and Len Kolodny and Jim Hoogan and their argument that there was also this honeypot operation.

1:27:32 which clearly existed that was connected to Watergate, called the Columbia Plaza Affair. And then, of course, there is a tie from Adnan Khashoggi to this Columbia Plaza Affair because Adnan Khashoggi is getting investigated for making calls to the Watergate Hotel back in 1973 at the same time. McCourt is involved in the Columbia Plaza thing.

1:27:58 So there's a ripe opportunity there for somebody to go out and do some more link analysis on this thing. I got a response from Nick, the follow-up journalist who did the Franklin scandal in 2014, and he's done a lot of these other books. And I think...

1:28:27 I think it's worth going back through all of Gary Caridori's files and Paul Bonacci's testimony and everything else and trying to do some link analysis and trying to find a connection to Kissinger and Rockefeller or some of these other families out there because I have a feeling it connects.

1:28:51 And that's very interesting. It does make me, I have the Franklin Scandal book. It does make me want to go back with all of our knowledge now and go back through that as one of our projects because things just look so different now that we have this international knowledge of how these systems work.

1:29:20 to put it in perspective with our new knowledge. I've found myself doing that more and more lately. Things that I thought I had a fairly good grasp on, just kind of general education-wise, that they look so different now that we know what we know. I think you're absolutely right. The author was Nick Bryant, by the way. I feel bad I had to look it up.

1:29:50 There's only so much of this that will fit in your head at any one time. Yeah, I mean, you can only kind of, you know, run about 15 or 20 or so of these Gladio-style events all the way to ground and be ready to debate them and prove it and cite your sources and everything else. Which is why I'm glad you're always here.

1:30:15 for that reason um because i'm the generalist um the the the strategic level you definitely are the operational level um with your link analysis and your ability to run things to ground um i i treasure the fact that you're here um more than you'll ever know all right that's why i consider that all of us a team at this

1:30:42 Just like our recent conversations we've had offline with Stab Connect, he's done so much digging and just literally a screenshot that he sent me yesterday kind of unraveled this whole Egmont thing in my head. I can't thank every one of you enough for...

1:31:06 everything that you do that has enabled us to put all of these pieces together. All right, with that, it's 5.30, it's Wednesday. I'm gonna have to run and I will see you guys tomorrow at four o'clock. I will be on the Alpha Warrior Show. We're gonna go through the Egmont article that I wrote in detail on his show tonight. So if you wanna show up and be in the chat.

1:31:36 I'd appreciate it. So everybody take care, and I will see you tonight or tomorrow. Take care, everybody. Colonel, I just wanted to add real quick your deal about not having to mow the lawn anymore. Yeah. I'll never forget the day I put on that corporal stripe. You become the arbitrator and the organizer. I ain't pushing that broom again.

1:32:06 Yeah, I have so many stories. But it's what makes you in the military. I can't imagine being in the military today. The experiences that you had as an airman and all of the different details, you met people in other squadrons while you were doing these details. I remember one of my details.

1:32:31 was going into a colonel's office that I don't know if they had left something in there, but there were like a million flies. And there was like three of us airmen in there with fly swatters trying to get all the flies out of the guy's office. But it was something that we talked about for weeks afterwards because it was hilarious. But that was our Saturday detail is going in his office. He was there.

1:33:00 spending like two hours trying to get all these damn flies out of his office. Never seen anything like it. Those big black nasty flies. And Chanute, where I was at as an instructor, they had all of the display aircraft all over the base because we worked, you know, the maintenance are trained on all of those different types of aircraft. So we had...

1:33:26 aircraft on the flight line to do actual maintenance on and we had all the static displays there and you had to go out on Saturdays on a rotating basis and wash all of those aircraft. It was just something that built you up and you understood that you were part of the

1:34:17 All right, hurry up. I joined the military because I didn't want to hold a paintbrush ever again. You held a paintbrush. Exactly. I was painting. I had enough of it. And the day I got assigned to computer sciences school there in Quantico, waiting on a class to be formed, they put a paintbrush in mine. Yep, you were in casual status.

1:34:47 Exactly. And it was like, damn. Yep. But anyway, so much for that. Yeah, you're not going to get away from paintbrushes in the old military, especially if you were at attack base where they wanted to paint everything two tones of brown. It was the ugliest damn thing I'd ever seen. But anyway, it got done. All right, everybody, take care. I will see you tonight or tomorrow.
