Well, I have to say I'm very glad you're. You're back from partying at Butterworth. You and Mike Davis both. There's a lot of news to get to. I think what Senator Grassley is putting out is a prime example of that. Also to what you guys were talking about last segment about how we can actually go after these people. Obviously terrible what they're doing to the one and only Jeff Clark. I think this is clear evidence that we should be revoking the 501C3 status of the Open Society foundation, of course, belonging to George Soros. Why do I say that? Basically, their executive vice president. Here's a name you should get familiar with, Leonard Bernardo. Keep in mind this organization has a tax exempt status. They say they're not political. I would argue what we're about to dive into, frankly, isn't just politics. It's political warfare. If not information warfare, legal warfare, media warfare, psychological warfare. I think the Chinese Communist Party through warfare's doctrine probably reified to a T. But just to sort of contextualize what we're talking about. The John Durham annex, which you know, is documents basically from over a decade ago finally being declassified. They were found in burn bags, I guess, strewn around the FBI as discovered by Kash Patel. But if Denver wants to put up on screen, we have sort of the overview of the emails that we can read. I'll just read a couple sentences and then sort of analyze and help you understand why Mike Benz and the like are so apoplectic over really what is a bombshell. I know that word is thrown around a lot, but I think it's quite applicable here. So this email is July 2016 coming from, like I said, the VP of the Open Society foundation saying, quote, HRC in reference to Hillary Rodham Clinton approved Julia's idea about Trump and Russian hackers hampering US Elections. That should distract people from her own missing email, especially if the affair goes to the Olympic level. The point is making the Russian. The Russians play a us. The Russian play a US Domestic issue. Say something like critical infrastructure is a threat for the election to feel a menace since both POTUS and the VP have Acknowledged that fast IC would speed up searching for evidence that is regrettably still unavailable. Now, basically every word that I read in that same chain of sentences is more explosive than the next. But the first line is basically admitting that this was political from the get go, that this was coming from the Clinton campaign, all of the Steele dossier. But I think what the real buried lead here and why you're seeing Mike Benz and sort of, I think the war room really theory of the case when it comes to. To Democrat. But more precisely, establishment censorship, crackdown on election infrastructure. Is the word critical infrastructure being used here, right? Setting a pretext, using it as sort of this fake crisis to then justify a very robust expansion, not just a federal government power, but particularly getting the IC involved. Why do I say that? If you look at a lot of the lingo, sort of the text, whether it was dhs, it was frankly, it was why CISA was created. But a lot of these global censorship operations expanded their purview over that, over content being shared and sent on the Internet, not because they thought they had jurisdiction over speech, but because they declared misinformation or tweets that, you know, the posse was sending out about the 2020 election as critical infrastructure. And people may recall they actually, I believe it was no conspiracies, no coincidences, but January 6th of 2017, where it was under the Obama administration, where they actually changed elections and classified them as critical infrastructure to lay the groundwork for propping up cisa, which we know really was ground zero for a lot of these censorship activities. And when you keep reading, talking about how you can really manufacture evidence to support the theory of this case, quote, in absence of direct evidence, CrowdStrike and Threat Connect will supply the media and GRU will hopefully carry on to give more facts. I think this really dovetails with the other damning sentence that Mike Benz and all of us have really been, I think, freaking out over, which is the idea of, quote, making the Russian play a US Domestic issue. In other words, trying to get the American people to go crazy and become totally apoplexy over all things Russia, Russia, Russia. We're going to get into Leonard's ties to the Ukraine war, because I think there's an interesting connection, like there always seems to be with anyone who's somehow involved in democratic politics. But Leonard, who, like I said, is, you know, essentially the number two, number three, he was the acting VP when they appointed a new president over at Open Society. If Denver wants to put these pictures up on screen, this is someone who was Actively posting. He essentially runs the Russia desk at the open Society foundation but has posted a ton in the 2014 years, 2013 kind of surrounding times about essentially fomenting color revolutions in Ukraine, quote, how democratic transition can unfold in Ukraine, quote a reformist agenda for Ukraine can be a template for how an effective and democratic transition can unfold. He has a lot of articles published really honing in on Ukraine, which I think makes his involvement with the Russia hoax all the more frankly sinister and just the last sort of point to really get to in this email. The quote, julie says it will be a long term affair to demonize Putin and Trump now it is good for a post convention bounce later the FBI will put more oil into the fire. Outcome is far from clear as Americans are more keen on their own woes and Hillary is hardly good looking as far as credibility is concerned anyway. Things are gassing lastly for U. S. Russian relations. Look, Steve, I think the top line assessment of this is that it's case closed. Obviously this was fake, right? It's clearly political. But I think if you really do sort of a linguistic analysis and you look at the code words that they're sort of telegraphing, whether it's making the Russia issue a play or talking about designating things, critical infrastructure, you really can sort of, I think reverse engineer not just what their playbook has been on the Rush stuff, right? As president Trump alluded to in the Oval Office when he was talking about how they want a special counsel on all of this because it all runs together. It's the same people, it's the same tactics. It's no coincidence and it's no mistake, right, that this guy is, you know, number three over at George Soros Foundation. He's busy, by the way, into the 2020 election. I was really doing a deep dive into his background, hosting a ton of creepy, weird town halls and webinars with Bill de Blasio's wife Maya Wiley. Make that make sense. Accusing president Trump of spreading, quote, you know, lies of disinformation, misinformation. That's not the correct picture to be putting up on screen. I digress, but there's a lot to unpack here. So that's my top line assessment.
