Introduction and Background

Matt Kibbe opens the episode by welcoming Steve Baker, who has recently been released from his January 6th charges. Baker shares his relief and details the unique nature of his release:

Steve Baker [00:56]: "I got an actual case dismissal with prejudice, which is basically saying that what happened to me over the last four years never happened."

The January 6th Case and Pardon

Baker delves into his legal battle, explaining how he strategically pled guilty to secure his dismissal before President Trump's inauguration:

Steve Baker [02:30]: "I knew a few things about the law... until you are actually sentenced, you are not convicted."

He highlights the corruption within the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the mishandling of numerous cases related to January 6th:

Steve Baker [03:56]: "The Department of Justice... mishandled all of them, all of their cases were mishandled. All of them had violations of due process or constitutional rights."

Media and Project Mockingbird

The conversation shifts to the influence of media on public perception and governmental narratives. Baker reaffirms the existence of covert media manipulation:

Steve Baker [10:12]: "They have individuals that are, for all intents and purposes, ensconced within various government organizations... they are used specifically as mouthpieces and tools."

Matt Kibbe elaborates on the enduring presence of such manipulation in today's media landscape:

Matt Kibbe [11:40]: "Project Mockingbird... it absolutely still exists. 100% convinced."

Corruption in the DOJ and Government

Baker discusses the broad corruption within the DOJ, citing high-profile pardons of individuals with extensive criminal backgrounds:

Steve Baker [14:07]: "I think what President Trump did was exactly the counsel that he received from whoever he was getting that from."

He criticizes the Biden administration for enabling further corruption:

Steve Baker [18:58]: "Joe Biden... pardoned so many despicable characters, not to mention all of the members of the Biden crime family syndicate."

Directed Energy Weapons

A significant portion of the episode focuses on the development and potential misuse of directed-energy weapons (DEWs). Baker provides an in-depth analysis of DEWs, comparing historical Soviet psychotronic weapons to modern advancements:

Steve Baker [35:11]: "Everything you're telling me so far is a googleable event. You can document this without believing anything that Steve is telling us."

He explains the technical aspects and potential dangers of DEWs, emphasizing their capacity to influence human behavior:

Steve Baker [38:34]: "These weapons... can make people violent, make them go crazy, hear voices in their head."

Baker shares a confidential discussion with a special operations operator about the existence and capabilities of these weapons:

Steve Baker [60:27]: "I have a flowchart of their chain of command... 'With it, we can stop your heart. We can make you your pants.'"

Whistleblowing and Government Secrecy

The dialogue touches on the challenges faced by whistleblowers attempting to expose governmental abuses. Baker highlights the systemic barriers that prevent transparency:

Steve Baker [57:56]: "Whistleblowers don't come forward, especially after the two or three that did. And the rest of the... see the treatment they got, then they button up."

Sci-Fi Analogies and Final Thoughts

Drawing parallels to science fiction literature, Matt Kibbe references Dune and Atlas Shrugged to illustrate the potential consequences of unchecked governmental power:

Matt Kibbe [71:51]: "And so I think, as Ayn Rand was in so many aspects, she was quite predictive in anticipating what can happen when government power is unchecked."

Baker reinforces the urgency of decentralization and vigilance to protect against the weaponization of technology:

Steve Baker [72:33]: "Our part two of our directed energy weapons series is going to be coming out very soon."

Conclusion

The episode concludes with a somber reminder of the pervasive corruption and the sophisticated means by which the government can exert control over its citizens. Both hosts emphasize the need for continued investigation and public awareness to safeguard liberties.

Steve Baker [74:16]: "Sunlight, daylight, whatever you call it, is the best disinfectant."
