[00:00:00] Well, Cash Patel and Dan Bonino are [00:00:03] finally going to give us answers that [00:00:05] we've all been waiting for, folks. [00:00:07] They're finally going to tell us all the [00:00:09] hard truths. We'll also be going through [00:00:12] the government's long history of running [00:00:14] drugs all around the world and discuss [00:00:16] Glenn Greenwald's leaked sex tape and [00:00:19] who on earth might possibly want to [00:00:21] blackmail and silence journalists. [00:00:24] Welcome back to Candace. [00:00:30] [Applause] [00:00:31] [Music] [00:00:31] [Applause] [00:00:34] [Music] [00:00:40] Right. Well, Dan Vonino and Cash Patel [00:00:44] are finally getting around to [00:00:45] investigating the heavy questions that [00:00:48] we all want answers to. The American [00:00:50] people spoke and they listened to [00:00:53] absolutely no one. Because while the [00:00:56] Epstein files are still rotting on Pam [00:00:58] Bondi's desk, they've reopened the [00:01:01] investigation. But not into who Epstein [00:01:03] was working for, not into whether or not [00:01:05] his trafficking network is still [00:01:07] operational, not who he had blackmail on [00:01:10] or what the acts of treason they may [00:01:12] have committed on behalf of him or his [00:01:13] employer were. No, they've reopened the [00:01:17] investigation into the bag of cocaine [00:01:19] that was found in the Joe Biden White [00:01:21] House on July 2nd, 2023. Jesse Waters of [00:01:25] Fox Prime Time foyed documents [00:01:27] pertaining to the cocaine case and the [00:01:30] details are not adding up. When the [00:01:33] story broke back in 2023, we received [00:01:35] this photo of the cocaine where it was [00:01:38] allegedly found in a random storage [00:01:40] cubby that just so happens to be in a [00:01:42] camera blind spot where there's no [00:01:45] surveillance footage of who might have [00:01:46] left it there. How convenient. It's [00:01:49] especially convenient because the day [00:01:51] the story first broke, the cocaine was [00:01:53] first found in the library. And then [00:01:55] MSNBC reported that it was found near [00:01:57] the situation room, but then it was [00:01:59] finally revealed that they'd actually [00:02:01] found it inside this random storage [00:02:03] cubby where it was photographed and [00:02:05] documented. But the documents that Jesse [00:02:08] Waters obtained, strangely, had the [00:02:11] location where it was found redacted. [00:02:13] So, just to be clear, they told us where [00:02:16] they found it inside the cubby. They [00:02:18] photographed where they found it inside [00:02:20] the cubby, but then they redacted it [00:02:22] from the Foye documents because where it [00:02:24] was found is classified. What a weird [00:02:27] coincidence. Um, I'm sure it's just a [00:02:29] mistake. And in fact, the wording in the [00:02:32] documents reported on by Jesse Waters is [00:02:34] actually feels like a juvenile coverup. [00:02:37] It's almost like they want us looking at [00:02:39] this. So, here here's Jesse Waters to [00:02:41] help explain. When the cocaine was first [00:02:44] found, they said it was in the library [00:02:46] where the first family lives. [00:02:49] We have a yellow bar stating cocaine, [00:02:52] hydrochloride, very much found in the [00:02:54] library. Then there were reports that [00:02:57] the cocaine was actually found outside [00:02:58] the situation room. Now, the [00:03:01] investigation has progressed and so [00:03:03] they're saying the west executive [00:03:04] entrance, which as you noted is closer [00:03:07] to the situation room. The Secret [00:03:09] Service then said, "No, it was in a [00:03:11] cubby with a lot of foot traffic around [00:03:14] it." And yes, there are cameras, but [00:03:15] that particular cubby was in a blind [00:03:17] spot. How do you mistake the library for [00:03:20] the situation room and the situation [00:03:22] room for the cubbies? They told us they [00:03:26] didn't find any [00:03:27] DNA, but the [00:03:30] documents say they did. Remember, the [00:03:34] coke baggies been blown up. The Secret [00:03:37] Service took the evidence from Quantico [00:03:39] and they destroyed it. They didn't want [00:03:41] the FBI to have it. But there's more [00:03:44] evidence that they didn't destroy. An [00:03:47] envelope with three tubes of [00:03:49] DNA. Where did they get the DNA from? [00:03:53] They got the DNA off the baggie. So, the [00:03:56] Secret Service lied and so did the White [00:03:59] House. They did find DNA on the baggie [00:04:03] and the DNA was processed and has been [00:04:05] moved to an evidence vault for [00:04:08] preservation. [00:04:11] Well, President Trump has the best take [00:04:15] on the whole situation. He just straight [00:04:18] up said it when he was asked who the [00:04:19] baggie belonged to. He just said, "Well, [00:04:21] it's either Joe or Hunter. Could be [00:04:23] Joe." We got a clip of him. In my [00:04:26] opinion, it's Hunter and probably Joe [00:04:30] because, you know, you watch Joe at the [00:04:31] beginning of his speech and he's got a [00:04:33] little life. Not much, but he's got a [00:04:34] little life. By the end of the speech, [00:04:36] he's a disaster. He can't even find his [00:04:38] way off the So, there's something going [00:04:40] on there. And I wouldn't be surprised if [00:04:42] it was for both of them. I think it's [00:04:44] for both of them. But that's my opinion, [00:04:47] man. Every time I look at old clips of [00:04:48] Joe Biden, I feel like we have to do a [00:04:51] dig into the whole CIA mask rabbit hole, [00:04:54] but that's another day. Um, about the [00:04:57] cocaine, we obviously all know that [00:05:00] Hunter had a serious problem with the [00:05:02] pow-wow pow. And just a quick reminder [00:05:05] that if you want to know about some of [00:05:07] Hunter's various escapades while [00:05:09] outnosed skiing on the taxpayers's dime, [00:05:11] you can see the content of his laptop at [00:05:15] bidlaptopmedia.com. Or at least you [00:05:17] could. Um, and then I was going back to [00:05:20] grab some screenshots for this episode [00:05:21] and noticed that it won't load anymore. [00:05:24] the site is down and you have to go to [00:05:26] archive.org. It turns out that the site [00:05:29] went down somewhere in January of this [00:05:32] year. Who [00:05:34] knows? Maybe just a [00:05:36] coincidence. So, now we'll come back to [00:05:39] the White House's affinity for hard [00:05:41] drugs in just a moment, but I want to [00:05:42] take a quick detour for some of my [00:05:44] favorite Biden family tinfoil that I [00:05:47] don't hear discussed nearly enough [00:05:49] because Joe Biden is a lifelong career [00:05:52] politician that showed some real [00:05:53] promise. And by promise, I mean that he [00:05:56] wasn't very bright, even before he was [00:05:58] scenile. And he was the kind of puppet [00:06:00] that the deep state could take all the [00:06:02] way to the White House, which they did, [00:06:04] obviously. but his family has all the [00:06:07] hallmarks is really the textbook case of [00:06:10] being blackmailed. And I hate to kick a [00:06:12] dead horse, but it looks to me like the [00:06:14] Biden family may have had some Israeli [00:06:17] handlers swimming in its midst. Keyword [00:06:19] here is may. This thread that we're [00:06:21] about to weave is mostly just [00:06:23] speculation. Probably all officially [00:06:26] misinformation, but it's fun. And at [00:06:29] least for now, fun is still legal on the [00:06:31] internet. So sue me. We're gonna do it. [00:06:35] Because if you remember, Joe Biden had a [00:06:38] non- loser, non-drugaddicted son, Bo [00:06:41] Biden, eldest son from Joe's previous [00:06:43] marriage to Naia Biden, who tragically [00:06:46] died just 6 weeks after Biden was [00:06:48] elected to the Senate. Now, we're not [00:06:50] going to go into the sacrificing a loved [00:06:52] one conspiracy theory that Kanye has [00:06:55] spoken openly about in the past, or at [00:06:57] least not right now, because Bo Biden [00:07:00] overcame this terrible tragedy, losing [00:07:02] his mother and baby sister, and went on [00:07:04] to show extreme promise, and he was the [00:07:07] 44th attorney general of Delaware when [00:07:09] he died suddenly and tragically of [00:07:11] glyobblastoma. Who knows how far his [00:07:13] political career might have gone. and [00:07:15] his grieving wife, Hi Olivier Biden, [00:07:18] then did what all grieving wives do and [00:07:21] promptly started sleeping with her dead [00:07:23] husband's brother, who was also nursing [00:07:26] a presumably new and budding crack [00:07:29] addiction. And yes, now we have [00:07:32] headlines that read Bo and Hunter [00:07:34] Biden's shared [00:07:37] ex. Awkward. So, let's break this down. [00:07:42] Hunter Biden, who was married and had [00:07:44] kids, started sleeping with his dead [00:07:47] brother's widow when they both have [00:07:49] kids, when they've watched each other's [00:07:51] kids grow up. Hunter hasn't even [00:07:54] finalized his divorce with his own wife [00:07:56] yet. And he starts sleeping with his [00:07:57] sister-in-law. And yeah, he's grieving [00:08:00] and lonely and clearly going through a [00:08:02] rough patch. Plus, once he starts [00:08:05] smoking crack, we we kind of all know [00:08:07] that crackheads will basically do [00:08:08] anything for a rush. But Harie, [00:08:11] presumably an upstanding Jewish mother, [00:08:13] thinks, "Oh, look, a crackhead. My [00:08:17] crackhead brother-in-law. That's exactly [00:08:19] the kind of man that I want to sleep [00:08:21] with in order to get over my husband's [00:08:23] death." Now, I know it's a stretch, but [00:08:26] while we're here, just consider a [00:08:29] potential scenario. [00:08:31] If Halley Biden were a handler or an [00:08:34] intelligence asset placed into the Biden [00:08:37] family to target the eldest and most [00:08:39] promising son of the Biden family, this [00:08:42] might explain why she would do something [00:08:44] so depraved. If you had just had your [00:08:48] incredibly fortuitous placement inside [00:08:50] the Biden family ruined by some random [00:08:53] cancer, that would be an incredibly [00:08:55] delicate position to have been able to [00:08:57] achieve in the first place. You don't [00:08:59] want to just throw out all of that hard [00:09:01] work. But hey, you could always get with [00:09:03] the crackhead. Maybe that'll keep you [00:09:05] involved in the family. Now, obviously, [00:09:08] this didn't go over too well. And once [00:09:10] the country caught on to the story, it [00:09:12] kind of blew up into a huge scandal. No [00:09:14] matter how much cover the media tried to [00:09:17] run for them. Plus, at the time, Hunter [00:09:20] is gallivanting all around the world, [00:09:22] banging hookers on camera, smoking crack [00:09:24] on camera. There are some truly [00:09:26] disturbing photos and videos in these [00:09:28] archives. But perhaps most disturbing, [00:09:31] what I think is most disturbing, [00:09:33] Hunter's entire camera roll is archived. [00:09:35] And all throughout it, it's pretty [00:09:37] obvious that he has duplicated a number [00:09:40] of photos over and over again. You can [00:09:42] see when this happens in a camera roll. [00:09:44] I do this frequently when I'm making [00:09:46] videos, and you'll see the same blocks [00:09:47] of identical photos recur in different [00:09:49] places all throughout the camera roll. [00:09:52] Hunter Biden repeatedly duplicated [00:09:54] photos of his child niece in her [00:09:56] swimsuit. Sometimes with her underage [00:09:59] girlfriends in swimsuits, too. Now, [00:10:02] let's just say that there's only one [00:10:05] reason that I can think of why Hunter [00:10:07] would be repeatedly duplicating those [00:10:10] sorts of photos specifically all [00:10:12] throughout his camera roll. There are [00:10:14] also a number of very sexual photos that [00:10:17] she apparently shared with him. It's all [00:10:19] really disgusting. And I'm not going to [00:10:21] show any of the images here, obviously. [00:10:23] Um, if you want to go further down the [00:10:25] Biden family sexual abuse of children [00:10:27] rabbit hole, you can look up Ashley [00:10:29] Biden's diary, videos of Joe sniffing [00:10:32] kids, and look into the laptop for [00:10:33] yourself. It's totally gross. But we're [00:10:37] getting sidetracked from the sidetrack, [00:10:39] so let's get back on course. Howie, the [00:10:42] widow of Bo Biden, is sleeping with [00:10:44] crackhead Hunter. And that goes on for [00:10:46] three years until 2019 when the scandal [00:10:49] is just a little too scandalous. And so [00:10:50] then out of the blue, Hunter Biden meets [00:10:53] this other lovely younger Jewish woman [00:10:56] named Melissa Cohen. Melissa Cohen looks [00:10:59] like this. She's a beautiful young [00:11:02] blonde filmmaker from South Africa. And [00:11:04] she sees this crackhead with no teeth [00:11:06] and thinks, "That's my guy. That's the [00:11:09] dude I've been waiting all my life to [00:11:11] sweep me off my feet." In fact, they [00:11:14] fall so madly in love that they get [00:11:17] married, get matching shalom tattoos, [00:11:19] and in less than a week, they get [00:11:21] pregnant more or less immediately. Their [00:11:24] son is born about 10 months after they [00:11:26] meet. Now, obviously, this is [00:11:29] speculation. There is no proof or [00:11:30] evidence of these connections that I'm [00:11:32] drawing, and it is entirely possible [00:11:34] that I am wrong, and Melissa Cohen [00:11:35] really does just love 50-year-old [00:11:37] crackheads who are fresh out of [00:11:38] relationships with their sister-in-laws. [00:11:41] But here you have a family like the [00:11:43] Kennedy family that is objectively a [00:11:46] prime target for any and every [00:11:48] intelligence agency out there. We know [00:11:50] for a fact that Hunter was collecting [00:11:52] massive amounts of blackmail files on [00:11:54] himself at the request of someone. He [00:11:57] says as much in some of the videos on [00:11:58] the laptop, though he never specifies [00:12:00] who exactly is coercing him into filming [00:12:02] and photographing all this behavior, [00:12:04] it's pretty clear that he's not just [00:12:06] doing it all for the funsies. Hunter [00:12:09] allegedly had three or four laptops of [00:12:11] blackmail material collected and he [00:12:12] speaks about this in some of those [00:12:14] videos, but he just happened to drop [00:12:16] this one off and forget about it at some [00:12:17] random repair shop, which to me almost [00:12:20] sounds like a cry for help or some sort [00:12:22] of attempt to get out from under the [00:12:24] thumb of his black mailers, but who [00:12:26] really knows? Beyond the laptops though, [00:12:29] we have two different Jewish women in [00:12:30] the Biden family, both acting in very [00:12:33] suspicious ways. First, Harley, who [00:12:35] seems desperate to maintain a position [00:12:37] in the family and is willing to sleep [00:12:39] with her crackhead brother-in-law to do [00:12:41] so. Who knows what role she may have [00:12:43] played in his addiction or the [00:12:45] blackmail, but then Melissa Cohen picks [00:12:47] up right where Hi left off and locks our [00:12:49] boy Hunter down the moment that Halley [00:12:51] has to step out of the picture. I mean, [00:12:54] when you look at an aging man like Joe [00:12:56] Biden in the 2010s, a man at the end of [00:12:58] his career, what do you think would be [00:13:01] the most effective way to control a man [00:13:03] like that? his last living son, his [00:13:06] grandkids. Lord knows what they might [00:13:08] have on Hunter beyond what has already [00:13:10] come out. Do you think they could have [00:13:12] videos of Hunter raping a child when he [00:13:14] was blacked out on a cocaine bender? [00:13:16] Because based on Hunter's own testimony [00:13:19] and what we see on the laptop, that [00:13:21] would have been the easiest operation [00:13:22] you could have ever pulled. It would [00:13:24] have taken zero skill. You could have [00:13:26] literally just found him halfway through [00:13:27] a bender and told him you had more drugs [00:13:29] and girls back at your place and Bob's [00:13:31] your uncle. [00:13:32] It's entirely within the realm of [00:13:34] possibility, even probability, that [00:13:36] someone has the kind of blackmail on [00:13:38] Hunter that could lock him away in [00:13:39] prison for a long time. We know that [00:13:42] Israel has targeted the president of the [00:13:43] United States before, like when Jeffrey [00:13:45] Epstein visited the Clinton White House [00:13:48] 17 times. Now, look at Joe Biden's [00:13:51] presidency. Do we see any evidence at [00:13:54] all that he was being controlled? Is it [00:13:57] remotely possible that perhaps he was [00:14:00] taking orders from someone who had [00:14:02] powerful blackmail over him or his last [00:14:04] living [00:14:05] son? No. Nah. Nah. That'd be crazy, [00:14:09] dude. That'd be crazy. I'm sure it's all [00:14:12] just [00:14:13] coincidences. But anyways, I just I had [00:14:15] to go down that side quest cuz I think [00:14:17] it's hilarious and kind of fun. It's [00:14:18] also super tragic. But we were talking [00:14:21] about the cocaine that was found in the [00:14:22] White House. And I thought now would be [00:14:24] a great time to remind us all that the [00:14:26] White House, or more particularly the [00:14:29] deep state, has always had quite a thing [00:14:31] for narcotics. But before we do that, [00:14:35] let's take a quick break from all the [00:14:36] seriousness for a couple words from our [00:14:38] sponsors. I want to take a moment to [00:14:40] tell you about Take Lean. You're going [00:14:42] to think I'm talking about weight loss [00:14:44] injections, but I'm not. These [00:14:46] remarkable weight loss testimonials came [00:14:47] from a doctor formulated weight loss [00:14:49] supplement called Lean. Patty S said, "I [00:14:52] finally found a weight loss product that [00:14:54] works. I wanted to lose 20 pounds and [00:14:56] lean really curves my appetite." Lori M [00:14:58] wrote, "I've struggled to get weight off [00:15:00] and lean has been a lifesaver. I've been [00:15:02] losing a couple pounds a week or more." [00:15:04] And Kelly F said, "Amazing. I [00:15:06] immediately noticed an energy boost and [00:15:08] a healthy weight loss. I would promote [00:15:09] this product to anyone. Lean was created [00:15:12] by a doctor and university researcher to [00:15:14] target the goals of GLP1s, but without [00:15:16] the injections. The studied ingredients [00:15:18] in lean have been shown to lower blood [00:15:21] sugar, radically reduce appetite, and [00:15:23] burn fat by converting it into energy. [00:15:25] If you're struggling to lose weight, and [00:15:27] healthy diet and exercise isn't enough, [00:15:29] lean is for you. Get yourself started [00:15:31] with 20% off. Just use code candace 20 [00:15:34] at takelean.com. That's code candace20 [00:15:37] at takelean.com. Again, [00:15:40] takelean.com. Results vary.

Okay, a quick [00:15:50] moment to tell you guys about Tax [00:15:51] Network USA. Tax day may have passed, [00:15:54] but for millions of Americans, the real [00:15:56] trouble is just beginning. If you missed [00:15:57] the April 15th deadline or still owe [00:15:59] back taxes, the IRS is ramping up [00:16:01] enforcement. Every day you wait only [00:16:03] makes things worse. With over 5,000 new [00:16:05] tax leans filed daily and tools like [00:16:07] property seizures, bank levies, and wage [00:16:09] garnishments, the IRS is applying [00:16:11] pressure at levels we haven't seen in [00:16:12] years. Increased administrative scrutiny [00:16:14] means collections are moving fast. The [00:16:16] good news, there's still time for Tax [00:16:18] Network USA to help. Self-employed or a [00:16:20] business owner, even if your books are a [00:16:22] mess, they've got it covered.

So, as I was saying, [00:16:58] the American government and governments [00:17:00] all around the world have a long history [00:17:02] of being involved in the drug [00:17:05] trafficking industries. And there's many [00:17:07] examples, too many to go over all of [00:17:08] them, but we're going to speedrun some [00:17:10] of the spiciest. Starting with these. [00:17:14] These are documents detailing how George [00:17:16] HW Bush worked with Richard Helms, then [00:17:19] the director of the CIA, and others to [00:17:21] smuggle heroin in the Golden Triangle [00:17:23] during the Vietnam War. They alleged [00:17:25] that not only were they running the [00:17:27] world's largest heroin smuggling [00:17:28] operation abroad at the time, but that [00:17:30] they were making a lot more of their [00:17:32] money by selling the smack directly to [00:17:34] American soldiers fighting in Vietnam. [00:17:37] There's a whole crazy rabbit hole around [00:17:39] this document and another trove of [00:17:40] records about CIA blackbudget bank [00:17:42] accounts and drug smuggling and the [00:17:44] castration of a Central American [00:17:45] dictator. But we'll do that full dig [00:17:48] another day because then there's the [00:17:50] time when the CIA took over the [00:17:52] smuggling operations of Latin American [00:17:54] cartels and started flying cargo planes [00:17:56] of cocaine into Mina, Arkansas. Gary [00:17:59] Webb famously uncovered and reported on [00:18:01] how this CIA operation was [00:18:02] single-handedly responsible for starting [00:18:04] and fueling the entire crack cocaine [00:18:07] epidemic in American black communities [00:18:09] in the 80s and '90s. Webb famously [00:18:11] committed suicide by shooting himself in [00:18:14] the head twice. And when people said [00:18:16] that sounded kind of suspicious, the CIA [00:18:19] was sure to investigate themselves and [00:18:21] found that they had had nothing to do [00:18:23] with either his death or any drug [00:18:26] trafficking. So case closed. Then more [00:18:30] recently you have Afghanistan. And I [00:18:32] want to dig into Afghanistan in a little [00:18:34] more depth because it's recent, it's [00:18:35] instructive, and I think it might make a [00:18:37] shift in the nature of global drug [00:18:39] trafficking right now. But first, let's [00:18:42] start way back in the 1800s with the [00:18:44] British Empire because this is some [00:18:47] history I don't think enough people know [00:18:48] about. So, as the British Empire [00:18:50] expanded around the globe, mostly on the [00:18:53] back of the world's first true [00:18:55] international mega corporation, the East [00:18:56] India Trading Company, opium grew to be [00:18:58] one of its largest revenue generators. [00:19:01] They turned India into a giant poppy [00:19:04] farm, and most of the opium grown in [00:19:06] India was shipped to China, which was [00:19:08] conveniently just downwind from India. [00:19:11] India detested it. China was destroyed [00:19:14] by it, and Great Britain [00:19:16] radar wealth from it. In 1880, the UK [00:19:20] Parliament debated the history of their [00:19:21] opium trade. And contained in that [00:19:23] examination are some wild [00:19:25] details. According to the UK Parliament, [00:19:28] the percentage of Indian revenue from [00:19:30] opium ballooned up to nearly [00:19:33] 17%. From a single crop. That's insane. [00:19:37] I can't find any clear figures as to how [00:19:39] much revenue the British Empire was [00:19:41] bringing in from this trade, but it's [00:19:43] safe to say that it was a lot. like [00:19:47] their quality of life significantly [00:19:50] depended on opium trafficking. China for [00:19:53] obvious reasons was not too stoked that [00:19:56] all their people especially their men [00:19:57] were getting addicted to opium and their [00:19:59] civilization was buckling under the [00:20:01] weight of that addiction. So they [00:20:03] outlawed the use and trade of opium and [00:20:06] seized a bunch of opium mostly owned by [00:20:08] British traders. Britain, however, was [00:20:11] not about it and they went to war with [00:20:13] China over it and eventually won. When [00:20:15] they did, they forced China to legalize [00:20:18] opium once again and to continue to [00:20:20] accept British opium imports. Then in [00:20:23] 1856, the Chinese government seized a [00:20:25] pirate smuggling ship laden with opium [00:20:28] named the Arrow. If you read the [00:20:30] Wikipedia, it claims that this was an [00:20:32] official British merchant ship. But in [00:20:34] the records from Parliament recorded in [00:20:35] 1880, you read this quote, "The Second [00:20:39] War arose out of the smuggling of opium. [00:20:42] The Chinese seized the Lucha Arrow, a [00:20:44] vessel of the pirate class that was [00:20:46] engaged in smuggling. It was distinctly [00:20:48] proved that she was not under the [00:20:49] protection of the British flag at the [00:20:51] time she was seized. But we nevertheless [00:20:54] went to war with China and destroyed her [00:20:56] ships, her people, and her buildings as [00:20:58] usual." [00:21:00] So nevertheless, Britain again was not [00:21:03] having it and went to war with China. [00:21:05] This time the French got involved as did [00:21:07] the other European empires and the new [00:21:10] American colonies because they had all [00:21:11] gotten in on the opium trade by now as [00:21:13] well. China was once again defeated and [00:21:16] the opium trade continued. At the time, [00:21:19] Hong Kong was a British colony and it [00:21:21] was developed largely on the profits of [00:21:23] this opium trade. The well-known modern [00:21:26] bank HSBC was founded specifically to [00:21:29] manage the obscene profits generated by [00:21:32] the opium trade. And to this day, they [00:21:34] are still mired in moneyaundering and [00:21:36] drug scandals. If you're not familiar, [00:21:38] opium is derived from the opium poppy [00:21:40] plant. And it's one of the oldest forms [00:21:43] of refined opioid drugs. In the late [00:21:46] 1800s, scientists discovered a new way [00:21:48] to refine opium and heroin was invented. [00:21:52] In 1898, Bear Yeah. the guys who make [00:21:56] aspirin and now own [00:21:57] Monsanto, Bear began pumping out heroin, [00:22:00] like hot cakes. Like super good hot [00:22:03] cakes. Like so good they'll put you to [00:22:06] sleep hot cakes. Clinicians at the time [00:22:09] reported that it was the perfect remedy [00:22:11] for just about everything from [00:22:12] tuberculosis to asthma, even bronchitis. [00:22:16] You got a cough? Try heroin. What could [00:22:19] go wrong? Physicians at the time even [00:22:21] claimed that heroin was a great way to [00:22:23] get over morphine [00:22:24] addiction. Just wait until they figure [00:22:26] out fentanyl. I mean, seriously. Oh no, [00:22:29] we're addicted to opioids. What should [00:22:31] we do? Have you tried [00:22:34] heroin? So, obviously, they were [00:22:36] Heroin is extremely addictive, [00:22:38] quite capable of being lethal, and has [00:22:40] ever since been one of the most [00:22:41] destructive and profitable illegal drugs [00:22:43] ever invented. So naturally, it was the [00:22:46] perfect cash crop for the CIA to use to [00:22:48] fund its growing list of black budget [00:22:50] programs in the 60s and 70s. So in this [00:22:54] FBI report written in 1989, it details [00:22:57] how George HW Bush earned the nickname [00:23:00] Poppy, not referring to [00:23:03] dad, but to something [00:23:06] else. Just a few quick excerpts from [00:23:08] this report. We can do a whole another [00:23:10] episode on this sometime. This is about [00:23:12] the people that were in charge of the [00:23:14] operation. Four of the five were [00:23:16] handpicked for their very special [00:23:18] abilities and expertise. The fifth [00:23:20] member of the group, Armatage, was [00:23:21] brought along by George Bush as his [00:23:23] personal gopher. Bush was chosen for his [00:23:26] knowledge of China and his wartime [00:23:28] flying ability, as well as being on the [00:23:30] way up within the CIA, although this is [00:23:32] before he was ever officially involved [00:23:34] in the CIA. So, lies. And then I'm just [00:23:37] going to skip down all the way to the [00:23:39] bottom. The five names were submitted to [00:23:41] the godfather of the CIA, John Foster [00:23:44] Dulles, who gave the plan his total [00:23:46] blessing. It goes on to say, "The master [00:23:49] plan called for the CIA to enter into [00:23:51] the drug smuggling business in a total [00:23:53] and complete fashion. Each of the five [00:23:55] planners would have his own field to [00:23:57] handle. Bush would be the secret head of [00:24:00] OA and handle all the shipping of the [00:24:02] drugs under forged way bills. Armatage [00:24:04] would be the gopher for the group and [00:24:06] the intermediary with any undesirabs. [00:24:09] General Landdale would handle all the [00:24:10] distribution networks and collection [00:24:12] services within the military in Vietnam. [00:24:14] William Kby was to handle the setting up [00:24:16] of all the manpower from runners, [00:24:18] pedlers, pushers, collectors, and so [00:24:20] forth, as well as the elimination of any [00:24:21] who might prove to be uncontrollable, be [00:24:23] they American or Vietnamese. Lieutenant [00:24:25] Colonel Fetta was there to was to use [00:24:28] his contacts in Latin America and in the [00:24:30] Middle East to obtain from various [00:24:31] governments the needed drugs, heroin, [00:24:34] cocaine, marijuana, LSD, etc., etc., as [00:24:37] ordered by Colby. Bush was to handle the [00:24:39] opium from [00:24:40] China. It also has this crazy section [00:24:44] near the end about the time when this [00:24:46] one spy, General Federa, that we just [00:24:47] heard about, snuck into Manuel Noriega's [00:24:50] mansion in Panama, ambushed him, tied [00:24:52] him up, cut off his testicles, and [00:24:54] shoved them in his mouth to prove a [00:24:56] point. It's a crazy story. We could do a [00:24:58] whole episode, and maybe someday we [00:25:00] will. But this report specifically [00:25:04] details how this top secret program run [00:25:06] by Bush and Helms smuggled heroin to US [00:25:09] servicemen in Vietnam and then funneled [00:25:11] the cash into secret CIA bank accounts [00:25:13] that would be used to fund topsecret [00:25:14] black budget programs all around the [00:25:16] world. A junior member of this plot, [00:25:18] William Casey, would later go on to be [00:25:20] the architect of the cocaine smuggling [00:25:22] operations exposed in the Iran Contra [00:25:24] scandal during the 1980s. Same story. [00:25:26] The CIA was smuggling cocaine into [00:25:28] America and using the profits to fund an [00:25:30] illegal proxy war which Congress had [00:25:32] explicitly told them not to finance. [00:25:35] Interesting that they happened to use a [00:25:37] quiet little airport in the state where [00:25:39] Bill Clinton was governor at the time. [00:25:41] Bill Clinton's brother was nursing a 4 g [00:25:44] of cocaine a day habit around this time. [00:25:46] He was later charged with cocaine [00:25:48] possession and trafficking, but Bill [00:25:50] made sure to pardon him in 2001, just [00:25:53] before he left office. And then speaking [00:25:55] of [00:25:56] 2001, in 2001, a ragtag group of 19 Arab [00:26:00] terrorists with absolutely zero CIA or [00:26:02] MSAD protection decided to nearly fail [00:26:05] basic flight school and then hijack a [00:26:07] bunch of passenger planes and then fly [00:26:09] them into the Twin Towers and also the [00:26:11] secret room in the Pentagon responsible [00:26:12] for Rumsfeld's little budget error of [00:26:14] more than $2 trillion. But don't worry, [00:26:16] Rumsfeld wasn't even there at the time. [00:26:18] Though he did pass a memo that day [00:26:20] asking his people to determine whether [00:26:22] the attack was good enough to hit Saddam [00:26:24] Hussein despite the fact that Iraq had [00:26:26] nothing to do with any of it. And in all [00:26:28] the madness, Building 7 decided it was [00:26:30] tired and controlled demolitioned [00:26:32] itself. And although jet fuel apparently [00:26:34] melts steel beams and pulverizes an [00:26:35] entire tower's worth of concrete into a [00:26:37] fine dust, it does not in fact have much [00:26:39] of an effect on passports which flutter [00:26:42] down to the sidewalks of New York [00:26:44] unscathed so they would be conveniently [00:26:45] found within hours of the attack. [00:26:47] Authorities hardly needed them though [00:26:49] because Muhammad Ada, leader of the [00:26:51] hijackers, had thought it prudent to [00:26:52] leave a briefcase full of his plans with [00:26:54] names and photos of all the hijackers in [00:26:57] the airport where he took off just for [00:26:59] posterity's sake, obviously. So within a [00:27:02] few days, we were zeroed in on al-Qaeda [00:27:04] and therefore Afghanistan, who was [00:27:05] allegedly harboring the most evil man in [00:27:07] the world, Osama bin Laden. Osama bin [00:27:11] Laden wrote a letter later to the [00:27:13] American people that recently went viral [00:27:15] all over Tik Tok because Gen Z suddenly [00:27:17] realized that he was making more sense [00:27:19] than our own politicians. As soon as it [00:27:22] went viral, it was pulled down from the [00:27:23] Guardian which where it had been hosted [00:27:25] for years and then an internetwide [00:27:27] censorship campaign was launched. In it [00:27:30] were passages like this. The course of [00:27:33] the policies of the present [00:27:34] administration in several areas clearly [00:27:36] reveals that whoever enters the White [00:27:38] House, even with good intentions to [00:27:39] safeguard the people's interest, is no [00:27:41] more than a train operator. His only [00:27:43] task is to keep the train on the tracks [00:27:45] that are laid down by the lobbyists in [00:27:46] New York and Washington to serve their [00:27:48] interests first. Even if it is counter [00:27:50] to your security and economy, any [00:27:52] president who tries to move the train [00:27:53] from the lobbyist tracks or to track for [00:27:56] the American people's interest will [00:27:57] confront very strong opposition and [00:27:59] pressure from the lobbyists. Your [00:28:00] president described the decision by the [00:28:02] court in favor of corporations to [00:28:03] intervene in the political arena as a [00:28:05] victory. But it is not a victory for the [00:28:07] American people except for the big [00:28:09] corporations. There is no doubt about it [00:28:11] that it is a right and it is also a [00:28:14] right for the administration to support [00:28:15] the oppressive Israelis for the [00:28:17] continued occupation of our land and the [00:28:19] killing of our brothers, marking a [00:28:20] victory for the Jewish lobby. The [00:28:21] president was not able to defend you [00:28:23] against the security and economic loss. [00:28:25] The way for change and freeing [00:28:26] yourselves from the pressure of [00:28:27] lobbyists is not through the Republican [00:28:29] or the Democratic parties, but through [00:28:30] the undertaking of you get the point. [00:28:32] And although bro makes some pretty good [00:28:34] points, let me just be clear that I do [00:28:36] not condone or endorse terrorism or [00:28:38] Osama bin Laden, he did some pretty evil [00:28:40] in his time and maybe not as much as [00:28:43] Donald Rumsfeld or Dick Cheney, but [00:28:45] anyways, Afghanistan was a big problem [00:28:48] in 2001. Like really big. Even before [00:28:52] building 7 decided it wanted in on Larry [00:28:54] Silverstein's particularly extensive [00:28:56] insurance policy, Afghanistan was a [00:28:58] problem because for quite some time it [00:29:01] had produced the lion's share of the [00:29:02] world's opium and heroin supply. At [00:29:04] least it did until the Taliban moved in [00:29:07] and took over in 2000 and outlawed the [00:29:10] production of the drug. Global drug [00:29:12] markets cratered. Then conveniently, the [00:29:16] very next year, the country was overrun [00:29:18] by US Marines that promptly were ordered [00:29:20] to help rebuild the country by guarding [00:29:22] newly planted opium fields. By 2002, [00:29:26] opium production was back. And in 2004, [00:29:29] it was reaching new heights. Heroin and [00:29:31] opium production continued to rise from [00:29:33] there until it peaked at record highs in [00:29:35] 2017 before leveling off. Then in 2022, [00:29:39] Joe Biden ordered a sudden and chaotic [00:29:41] withdrawal, an absolute national [00:29:43] embarrassment and a crime against both [00:29:45] the Afghan and American people who had [00:29:47] fought for two decades in a meaningless [00:29:49] and pointless conflict that cost [00:29:51] thousands of Americans and millions of [00:29:53] Afghani lives. And then conveniently, US [00:29:57] troops were ordered to leave all their [00:29:58] military equipment there for the Taliban [00:30:00] to seize. Almost like the US government [00:30:02] was intentionally arming terrorists. [00:30:05] Now, where have I read about that [00:30:08] before? The very next year, after the [00:30:10] Taliban took control of Afghanistan, [00:30:12] opium production cratered back down to [00:30:15] record lows and has remained there ever [00:30:17] since. It's almost like the US [00:30:19] government has given up on its [00:30:21] long-standing tradition of overseeing [00:30:22] global heroin trafficking. But let's [00:30:25] rewind and talk about the opioid [00:30:27] epidemic for a moment because in it, I [00:30:29] think we will find the likely reason for [00:30:31] this apparent change of course. The [00:30:34] opioid epidemic, often considered to [00:30:36] have begun in the early 2000s, one might [00:30:39] even suggest in 2001, has cost more than [00:30:42] half a million American lives and well [00:30:44] over a trillion dollars. It was driven [00:30:46] first into middle America by the [00:30:48] overprescription of new opioid [00:30:50] medications like Oxycottton, which were [00:30:52] marketed to doctors as a new and [00:30:54] non-addictive pain medication. It was [00:30:56] prescribed to kids on the football team [00:30:58] who got injured to moms and dads after [00:31:00] surgery or for just about anything else [00:31:02] doctors could dream up because it was [00:31:04] later reported that doctors were [00:31:06] receiving kickbacks for prescribing it. [00:31:08] Well, not technically kickbacks, but it [00:31:12] just turned out that on average across [00:31:14] wide studies, doctors who prescribed [00:31:16] more opioids just happened to be getting [00:31:18] paid more money by big pharma. Just pure [00:31:22] coincidence, I'm sure. Purdue Pharma, [00:31:24] owned by the Sackler family, also gave [00:31:27] real kickbacks, meaning straight up [00:31:29] bribes, to the company that makes one of [00:31:30] the most widely used doctor prescribing [00:31:32] portals, so that when doctors would use [00:31:34] their computer and the doctor's office [00:31:36] to prescribe you drugs, it would give [00:31:37] pop-ups encouraging them to prescribe [00:31:39] Purdue Pharma's opioids. These and other [00:31:42] practices led to an absolutely insane [00:31:45] amount of opioids flowing out into [00:31:47] everyday American households over the [00:31:48] last 20 years. In 2016, there were [00:31:52] 323 million people living in America. [00:31:54] And doctors wrote 215 million [00:31:57] prescriptions for opioids. That is one [00:32:00] prescription for two out of every three [00:32:02] men, women, and children and babies in [00:32:06] the United States. Because prescriptions [00:32:08] are often written to the same person [00:32:10] multiple times a year, that turned out [00:32:11] to be nearly 20% of the population [00:32:13] receiving opioid prescriptions that [00:32:15] year. In the median US county, [00:32:18] physicians prescribed an amount of [00:32:19] opioids in 2015 equivalent to a nearly [00:32:23] two week supply of oxycodone for every [00:32:26] resident, man, woman, and child. And for [00:32:30] far too many of these Americans, that [00:32:32] first prescription turned into an [00:32:33] addiction. And when eventually [00:32:35] prescription opioids are too hard to [00:32:36] come by or too expensive, they turn to [00:32:39] heroin and other street drugs. This [00:32:42] devastated my generation. Nearly every [00:32:44] single person from my generation lost [00:32:46] friends in high school and college to [00:32:47] this tragedy. Regular kids, the star of [00:32:50] the football team, the class clown, [00:32:52] honor students who all of a sudden [00:32:54] dropped off the map, disappeared to out [00:32:56] of state rehab, or died of overdoses. [00:32:59] The tragedy of the opiate epidemic is [00:33:01] hard to overstate and was made all the [00:33:04] more tragic because it was being [00:33:05] prescribed by doctors to otherwise [00:33:07] successful and average people. not to [00:33:09] drug addicts, not to dropouts, not as a [00:33:12] last step down a long descent into [00:33:14] degeneracy. The doctor's office itself [00:33:17] became the gateway to the destruction of [00:33:19] families and of lives. And during this [00:33:22] time, Afghanistan was by far and away [00:33:25] the leading global supplier of the opium [00:33:28] used to make these drugs. We waged a war [00:33:31] for 20 years to subsidize and protect [00:33:34] these profits. American soldiers guarded [00:33:37] these poppy fields while the opium [00:33:39] derived from them was shipped home to [00:33:42] addict and kill their own friends and [00:33:44] family members. But then something [00:33:47] changed around 2015. Fentinel started to [00:33:51] flood the market and began turning up in [00:33:53] samples of other street drugs like [00:33:55] ecstasy and cocaine. You can see here [00:33:57] the purple line is other synthetic [00:34:00] opioids skyrockets. And meanwhile, the [00:34:03] orange line heroin levels off and starts [00:34:06] to decline slightly. Fentinyl is a [00:34:09] synthetic opioid that is made in a [00:34:11] laboratory without the need to fight a [00:34:12] war to secure millions of hectares of [00:34:14] poppy production. It's also up to 100 [00:34:17] times more potent than heroin and 10,000 [00:34:19] times more potent than morphine. These [00:34:22] images depict a lethal dose of fentanyl, [00:34:24] which can be as small as a few grains of [00:34:26] sand. You can see the size of a lethal [00:34:28] dose of heroin compared to a lethal dose [00:34:30] of fentanyl. So now this stuff is being [00:34:33] mixed into other street drugs to make [00:34:35] them feel more potent and kids are dying [00:34:37] from overdoses when they think they're [00:34:39] taking something else that is at least [00:34:40] in the grand scheme of things relatively [00:34:43] harmless. How strange though that we are [00:34:46] no longer interested in Afghanistan and [00:34:48] their poppy fields right as the heroin [00:34:50] market is cracked open by this new [00:34:52] synthetic opioid that makes poppy [00:34:54] cultivation essentially [00:34:56] obsolete. Must just be a coincidence, [00:34:58] huh? Sort of like that one time back in [00:35:01] 2019 when a cargo ship owned by JP [00:35:04] Morgan Chase was seized with 20 tons of [00:35:06] cocaine on board. The estimated street [00:35:08] value of this shipment was over a [00:35:10] billion dollars. It was the largest [00:35:11] vessel ever seized in Border Patrol [00:35:13] history. And so you might say, "Huh, our [00:35:17] federal government sure is taking this [00:35:19] drug trafficking thing seriously." But [00:35:22] you read more closely and you learn how [00:35:25] the world really works. JP Morgan leased [00:35:28] the boat to Mediterranean Shipping Co., [00:35:30] absolving JP Morgan of any liability for [00:35:32] the boat's crew and cargo. Mediterranean [00:35:35] Shipping Co. said, quote, [00:35:36] "Unfortunately, shipping and logistics [00:35:38] companies are from time to time affected [00:35:40] by trafficking problems." Correct. It is [00:35:44] a big problem when you get caught [00:35:45] transporting more than a billion dollars [00:35:47] of cocaine, but not so big of a problem [00:35:49] that the corporation is going to be [00:35:50] investigated at all. No. Instead, a few [00:35:54] of the crew members were charged with [00:35:55] cocaine trafficking charges, but [00:35:57] obviously the ship and company could [00:35:59] never have known that this was [00:36:00] happening, so why even investigate them? [00:36:03] JP Morgan obviously had nothing to do [00:36:05] with it either. But then, you remember [00:36:07] that one time when Jeffrey Epstein was [00:36:09] referring billionaire and other [00:36:11] influential clients to JP Morgan Chase [00:36:12] for banking services and it turned into [00:36:14] a whole scandal? I mean, why did the [00:36:17] Obama White House counsel even know him, [00:36:19] let alone talk to him? Because when you [00:36:22] read a little deeper, you'll learn that [00:36:24] she was referred to JP Morgan by Epstein [00:36:26] in February of 2019, just 4 months [00:36:30] before his arrest on federal child sex [00:36:32] trafficking charges. 4 months. This [00:36:35] referral came 6 years after JP Morgan [00:36:38] claims that it cut all ties with Epstein [00:36:40] because of repeated red flags on his [00:36:42] account. All the big banks are dirty as [00:36:45] heck. There are reports every year of [00:36:48] banks being caught laundering money for [00:36:49] the cartels and traffickers. But there [00:36:51] are never reports of criminal [00:36:53] investigations or any accountability. [00:36:55] They just pay a few small fines here and [00:36:57] there and keep doing business as normal [00:36:59] because these people are not like you [00:37:01] and me. They are the ownership class, [00:37:03] the political class, and the banking [00:37:05] class. We are raised to believe that we [00:37:07] live in a just world, that our [00:37:09] government are the good guys, and that [00:37:11] those terrorists and drug cartels and [00:37:13] criminals out there are the bad guys. [00:37:15] But that couldn't be further from the [00:37:16] truth. Why do you think you've heard of [00:37:19] Colombian drug kingpins going to prison [00:37:21] for cocaine trafficking, but no one ever [00:37:23] even suggested doing the same to the [00:37:25] director of the CIA when he was [00:37:26] overseeing smuggling operations? Why do [00:37:29] you think Obama's council was apparently [00:37:32] pals with Jeffrey Epstein, but no one [00:37:34] thought to look deeper into that [00:37:35] connection? For the same reason why JP [00:37:38] Morgan and Mediterranean Shipping Co. [00:37:39] were not even investigated over the [00:37:41] cocaine bust on their boat because they [00:37:43] run the show. These people are the deep [00:37:46] state. And when corruption has seeped [00:37:48] this far into the American government, [00:37:50] they're playing on friendly turf. The [00:37:53] corporate government and intelligence [00:37:55] agency playbook is designed in this [00:37:57] exact way to create plausible [00:37:59] deniability. When Barry Seal was [00:38:01] bringing an entire military cargo plane [00:38:03] of cocaine in and out of Mina, Arkansas [00:38:05] every few weeks, no one's ever going to [00:38:07] wind up looking at Bill Clinton to see [00:38:09] whether or not it's possible that Barry [00:38:11] was getting away with it because he had [00:38:13] protection from and was working with [00:38:15] corrupt people in our own government. No [00:38:17] one's going to be able to prove that [00:38:18] anyone at JP Morgan had any knowledge [00:38:20] that their boats were being used to [00:38:22] smuggle billions of dollars of cocaine. [00:38:24] The executives at Universal Music had no [00:38:26] way to know that their boy Diddy was [00:38:28] allegedly running a trafficking and [00:38:30] blackmail operation. Just might as well [00:38:31] take their names off the lawsuits and [00:38:33] not even look into them, despite the [00:38:35] fact that they were allegedly funding [00:38:37] and attending the parties. If the CIA [00:38:40] wanted to shut down the global heroin [00:38:42] supply at any time during the last two [00:38:43] decades, they could have easily done so. [00:38:46] After all, the entire global industry [00:38:48] was reliant on American soldiers [00:38:51] standing guard over the very poppy [00:38:53] fields that supplied the traffickers and [00:38:55] cartels. They know where the cocaine is [00:38:58] coming from. They've been working with [00:38:59] those guys for decades. They know who [00:39:02] the human traffickers are. They're [00:39:03] laundering their money for them. The DEA [00:39:06] and Customs and Border Patrol don't [00:39:08] exist to stop drugs or weapons or human [00:39:10] trafficking, though that's what the [00:39:12] agents who sign up for the job usually [00:39:13] think. But the institutions at the [00:39:16] highest level, they serve to protect the [00:39:18] turf of this American deep state. If you [00:39:20] don't have the protection of insiders, [00:39:22] they'll catch you and throw you in [00:39:23] prison. But if you run your drugs on JP [00:39:26] Morgan boats in and out of friendly [00:39:27] ports to and from deep state assets, [00:39:30] well, how many boats like this one do [00:39:32] you think brought their shipments in [00:39:34] undetected before some uppy agents [00:39:37] happened to step out of line and catch [00:39:38] this boat? My bet is that it was a lot [00:39:41] of [00:39:42] them because whether it's cocaine or [00:39:45] heroin or children, it's all the Truman [00:39:47] Show. They let us go on believing that [00:39:50] these things are illegal and carry a [00:39:51] harsh prison sentence. But usually, [00:39:53] they're just illegal for anyone else to [00:39:55] cut into their profits and their [00:39:57] lifestyle. Because as long as people in [00:40:00] our government are doing drugs and [00:40:01] raping kids on private islands, you dang [00:40:03] well better believe they're protecting [00:40:05] their supply. And you don't get much [00:40:07] closer to the symbolic top of the [00:40:09] pyramid than cocaine in the White House. [00:40:12] And it's cute that Cash and Dan think [00:40:14] they're going to investigate and [00:40:15] prosecute someone over this. In fact, [00:40:17] it's kind of offensive because while [00:40:19] these guys are chasing around a little [00:40:21] baggie of coke that we all know could [00:40:23] have been anyone and everyone in the [00:40:25] Biden White House, the Epstein files are [00:40:27] still just sitting on Pam Bondie's desk [00:40:29] collecting dust cuz everyone implicated [00:40:32] in them is part of the untouchable [00:40:34] ruling class. They are the bankers, the [00:40:37] politicians, the celebrities, and the [00:40:39] corporate executives that make the world [00:40:41] go round and the whole world works for [00:40:44] them. And now we've got a blackmail sex [00:40:47] tape scandal to discuss. But first, I [00:40:50] want to take a break to mention one of [00:40:52] our sponsors. And now, let me tell you [00:40:54] about home title lock. If you're a [00:40:55] homeowner, you need to listen to this. [00:40:57] When's the last time you checked on your [00:40:59] home title? That's the legal proof that [00:41:01] you own your own house. If you're like [00:41:03] me, the answer is never. The problem is [00:41:05] in today's AI and cyber world, scammers [00:41:08] are stealing home titles and your equity [00:41:09] is the target. Here's how it works. [00:41:11] Criminals forge your signature on one [00:41:13] document, use a fake notary stamp, pay a [00:41:15] small fee with your county, and boom, [00:41:17] your home title has been transferred out [00:41:19] of your name. Then they take out loans [00:41:21] using your equity or even sell your [00:41:23] property. You won't even know it's [00:41:25] happening until you get a collection or [00:41:27] foreclosure notice.

So last week, X was momentarily [00:42:03] flooded with a sex tape scandal [00:42:04] surrounding legendary independent [00:42:06] journalist Glenn Greenwall. If you're [00:42:08] not familiar with Glenn, he's been in [00:42:10] the game since about 2003 when a lot of [00:42:12] us were still learning to write in [00:42:14] complete sentences. He's contributed to [00:42:16] some of the top anti-corruption stories [00:42:17] of all time, including being one of the [00:42:19] primary journalist to receive and [00:42:21] publish leaked documents from Edward [00:42:22] Snowden. He won a Pulitzer Prize for his [00:42:25] work on the Snowden story. He went on to [00:42:27] be one of the founding members of the [00:42:28] Intercept, where he was a key player in [00:42:30] receiving and reporting the first leaks [00:42:32] of Hillary Clinton's email server that [00:42:34] eventually exposed a whole archive of [00:42:36] criminal activity in Libya, Haiti, as [00:42:38] well as the infamous Pizzagate emails [00:42:40] that were eventually published on [00:42:41] Wikileaks. He reported on a major [00:42:43] corruption scandal in Brazil, exposing [00:42:45] members of the Bolsinaro government, [00:42:47] including judges and prosecutors of [00:42:48] corruption and attempts to rig [00:42:50] elections. He criticized Bush, he [00:42:51] criticized Obama, and he criticized [00:42:53] Trump. Then in 2020, when editors at the [00:42:56] Intercept tried to censor his reporting [00:42:58] on Joe Biden's corrupt dealings with [00:42:59] China in Ukraine, rather than acquies to [00:43:02] censorship, he left the publication that [00:43:04] he had helped to found. Instead, he went [00:43:06] independent and quickly amassed one of [00:43:08] the largest audiences of anyone in the [00:43:10] space. All throughout his career, [00:43:13] despite being Jewish, he has criticized [00:43:15] the government of Israel over the [00:43:16] military policies and intelligence [00:43:18] operations. He has been deeply critical [00:43:20] of their treatment of Palestinians since [00:43:22] long before October 7th. And then last [00:43:25] week, he scheduled to sit down with [00:43:27] Tucker Carlson for a podcast. And the [00:43:29] day before the episode aired, a private [00:43:32] sexual video of him was leaked online. [00:43:35] I'm sure that the timing was just a [00:43:37] coincidence. I'm sure it was just some [00:43:39] random disgruntled kids that hacked his [00:43:41] phone or computer and leaked it all on [00:43:44] Twitter. Probably not a foreign [00:43:46] government or intelligence agency trying [00:43:47] to embarrass and silence him. Now, I [00:43:50] didn't watch the videos out of respect [00:43:51] to Glenn. Glenn is a grown man and based [00:43:53] on the conversation online, I could tell [00:43:54] that there was no kids involved. Glenn's [00:43:57] gay and we've known this for a long [00:43:58] time. And so the videos were just meant [00:44:00] to embarrass and presumably to just [00:44:01] occupy the conversation around him. [00:44:04] Glenn put out a statement that was [00:44:05] exceptionally well-worded that I just [00:44:07] want to read. Quote, "Last night, videos [00:44:10] were released online depicting behavior [00:44:12] in my private life. Some were distorted [00:44:14] and others were not. They were published [00:44:15] without my knowledge or consent, and its [00:44:17] publication was therefore criminal. [00:44:19] Though we do not yet know exactly who is [00:44:20] responsible, we are close to knowing and [00:44:22] the motive was a maliciously political [00:44:24] one. As for the content of the videos, I [00:44:26] have no embarrassment or regret about [00:44:28] them. The videos depict consenting [00:44:29] adults engaging in intimate actions in [00:44:31] their private lives. They all display [00:44:33] fully consensual behavior harming [00:44:35] nobody. Obviously, it can be [00:44:37] uncomfortable and unpleasant when your [00:44:38] private behavior is made public against [00:44:40] your will. That's why the behavior is in [00:44:42] private in the first place. But the only [00:44:43] wrongdoing here is the criminal and [00:44:45] malicious publication of the videos in [00:44:46] an attempt to malign perceived political [00:44:48] enemies and advance a political agenda. [00:44:50] Others are of course free to form their [00:44:52] own judgments as some are prone to do [00:44:53] about others private lives. It won't [00:44:55] change my work. I will continue all the [00:44:57] many prongs of my journalism and pursue [00:44:59] the causes most important to me exactly [00:45:01] as before. And basically the entire [00:45:04] internet shared the same sentiment. We [00:45:06] don't care. Glenn Greenwald is one of [00:45:08] the most impactful independent [00:45:09] journalists of our generation. what he [00:45:11] does in his own bedroom with consenting [00:45:13] adults is his own business. Some of the [00:45:15] comments underneath Glenn's post were [00:45:18] both hilarious and awesome to read. Um, [00:45:21] Cernovich, a slightly more serious take [00:45:24] here. Glad that I've been out of the [00:45:26] loop and missed this. Sorry you've been [00:45:27] targeted in this way. Showing moral [00:45:29] courage is important because blackmail [00:45:30] only works when people live in fear, [00:45:32] which is what the powerful want and [00:45:34] demand via other coercive ways. The host [00:45:37] twins just said, "You wild as hell, [00:45:39] Glenn." And even Andrew Tate weighed in [00:45:42] saying, "F him. Keep up the good fight." [00:45:44] Andrew Tate is normally the first guy to [00:45:47] call someone aot. And here he is [00:45:49] supporting Glenn Greenwald because we [00:45:51] all get it. Journalism needs to stand up [00:45:53] to stuff like this because once they're [00:45:56] doing things like this to journalists, [00:45:57] where does it end? That post has been [00:46:00] viewed over 22 million times. And [00:46:03] ironically for the leakers, the story [00:46:05] has been a huge backfire. Not only did [00:46:07] the world not care, but it also exposed [00:46:09] a dark and important truth about today's [00:46:11] media landscape. The world is run by [00:46:14] blackmail. And it's not just politicians [00:46:16] that will be targeted. They, whoever [00:46:19] they are, will do just about anything to [00:46:21] just about anyone who threatens them to [00:46:23] try to silence the truth, uphold their [00:46:25] narrative, and maintain power. I've been [00:46:27] wondering for some time now if we would [00:46:29] start seeing blackmail of independent [00:46:30] media. And now, thanks to Glenn [00:46:32] Greenwald falling on this grenade for [00:46:34] all of us, we have proof. The question [00:46:37] we should all be asking is, how many [00:46:39] other people in independent media might [00:46:41] be controlled by blackmail that has not [00:46:44] been released? How many people out there [00:46:46] would not have the spine of Glenn and [00:46:48] rather than suffer embarrassment would [00:46:50] change their reporting, do their [00:46:52] blackmailers bidding, or compromise [00:46:54] their values? And to be clear, so far we [00:46:58] don't know who it was that hacked and [00:46:59] released these videos. We don't know who [00:47:01] might want to embarrass or silence Glenn [00:47:03] Greenwald. At least we don't know for [00:47:05] sure. But personally, I have my own [00:47:09] suspicions. And if you want evidence to [00:47:11] help you decide who you think is trying [00:47:13] to blackmail journalists, you should go [00:47:15] watch Glenn's interview with Tucker and [00:47:17] think for yourself. For now, we'll just [00:47:20] show a brief clip from the interview [00:47:21] that I picked out totally at random. [00:47:23] Obviously [00:47:25] I like in 2022 and 2023 there were a [00:47:28] bunch of MAGA people who were opposed to [00:47:30] the funding of the war in Ukraine uh and [00:47:34] some non-Maga people too like RFK Jr. [00:47:37] and I was obviously very opposed to it [00:47:39] from the start. You were too. I went on [00:47:40] the show many times to talk about that [00:47:42] and I had a bunch of them on like Matt [00:47:44] Gates and Marjorie Taylor Green and RFK [00:47:47] Jr. a lot of them. And I always had this [00:47:51] same plan. And I would ask them like, [00:47:52] "Why are you opposed to having the US [00:47:54] fund the war in Ukraine? Like, don't you [00:47:56] want the US to stand up for Ukraine [00:47:58] against Russia?" And they would all say, [00:48:00] "This isn't our business. This is on the [00:48:03] other side of the world. It doesn't [00:48:04] affect my constituents. Our communities [00:48:06] are falling apart. We have fentanyl [00:48:08] addictions sweeping our communities. [00:48:10] Nobody has jobs. Nobody has healthcare. [00:48:12] Our country is falling apart. We don't [00:48:13] have the money to keep sending to [00:48:14] foreign countries. And it's outrageous [00:48:16] that we keep doing it." And they would [00:48:17] be very passionate and very adamant. I [00:48:19] would encourage them to keep developing [00:48:21] that idea and they would and they would [00:48:22] say all those things with which I [00:48:24] completely agreed. And then my next [00:48:26] question was always, do you apply the [00:48:28] same rationale to the United States [00:48:30] funding the Israeli military and Israeli [00:48:32] society and Israeli [00:48:34] wars? And they would all stutter to try [00:48:37] and distinguish why it was that they had [00:48:41] one view for Ukraine and a very [00:48:43] compelling rationale, but then had to [00:48:46] say, "Oh, no, Israel is different." [00:48:47] There's there's this attempt now to [00:48:49] impose on colleges, require colleges to [00:48:51] adopt, but also enact into American law [00:48:54] this radical expansion of what [00:48:55] anti-semitism means. Like there's laws [00:48:57] that say here's what racism is, here's [00:48:59] what, you know, xenophobia is, here's [00:49:01] what Islamophobia is, misogyny, [00:49:02] whatever. to expand the definition of [00:49:05] anti-semitism to include statements not [00:49:08] only about Jewish people who should be [00:49:10] subjected to critique like you should be [00:49:12] able to say huh that Ben Shiro seems to [00:49:14] care quite a lot about Israel maybe even [00:49:16] to the point that he cares about it more [00:49:18] than the United States like you should [00:49:19] be able to express that critique but the [00:49:22] other thing is you cannot say for this [00:49:24] is just one example you cannot say [00:49:26] Israel is a racist endeavor you can say [00:49:30] Iran is a racist endeavor you can say [00:49:32] Hamas is a racist [00:49:34] the United States is a racist endeavor. [00:49:36] You can say anything you you can be a [00:49:39] student at a at a school a month away [00:49:41] from completing your PhD with a [00:49:43] completely clean record and you can [00:49:45] write an oped saying I think America is [00:49:47] a country of violence and imperialism [00:49:50] and evil and was founded on racism and [00:49:53] you'll be totally fine. You write an [00:49:55] op-ed onetenth of those criticisms but [00:49:58] about Israel and ICE is coming to get [00:50:00] you and to deport you. [00:50:03] So, don't pay any attention obviously to [00:50:05] any of those points that he's making. [00:50:07] Don't argue those arguments at all. [00:50:09] Don't address the facts or the material [00:50:12] of the concerns. Instead, you should pay [00:50:15] attention to the scandal. Pay attention [00:50:17] to the sex tape. pay attention to the [00:50:20] distractions because we're still waiting [00:50:23] for any informed or rational way of [00:50:27] addressing those concerns from the [00:50:29] experts, from someone who's been there. [00:50:33] We're waiting to [00:50:35] hear. So, that's our show for today. [00:50:38] Really appreciate you tuning in.
