Hey, this is Sarah. Look, I'm standing out front of a.m. p.m. Right now and, well, you're sweet and all, but I found something more fulfilling, even kind of cheesy. But I like it. Sure, you met some of my dietary needs, but they've just got it all. So farewell. Oatmeal. So long, you strange soggy.

A
Well, good evening, everyone. Welcome to Stitchfield. The legacy of the Magna Carta is completely under attack. So I want to take you back to history class. I don't know what, sixth, seventh grade, where you learn about the Magna Carta. Basically, this was the blueprint for freedom, liberty, to be judged by your peers. It was, of course, a UK document going back to the United Kingdom that basically took some power away from the rulers and says, you know what? We're going to check the power of an overreaching government, specifically the Crown in that case. Now, England is a shell of itself. It has canceled elections, local elections, because, of course, the Conservative Reform Party is making great inroads. So the Liberals say, no, no, no, we can't do that. Listen to Nigel Farage. It's been a pretty extraordinary week in British politics, and some might say, pretty extraordinary day in British politics. The day is the day we learn that there will be surveillance cameras, not just in our big cities, but literally in every single village, the surveillance state is getting very, very close indeed. And that of course, in the same week that we learn that the 800 year right to trial by jury is to be abolished.
- [03:19]
And as I mentioned, canceled elections. So you've got literally Chinese style facial recognition in, in England, you've got this idea that now you can't get a trial by jury anymore. You've got people being arrested literally for quote, offending people on the street, either with speech or social media posts. I showed you this the other day. This guy in Florida, he's. He's from the uk, he's in Florida, takes a picture with a gun. When he gets back to his home country, he gets arrested for taking a picture in Florida with a firearm. That's the crime of lunacy. That's out of control. And again, as I said, they want absolute power, so they're refusing to hold these elections. Nigel Farage spells it out. And it just shows the total and utter disdain this country has for liberty, democracy, freedom in this country and everything that we have held dear. I have to say, personally, I increasingly hold the individuals that run this government with absolute and total contempt.
- [04:30]
It really is sad, but it should serve as a warning of just how quickly that freedom, your freedom can be snatched away from you. I mean, this is happening at a lightning fast pace. I want you to listen to this woman tell her story about why she was arrested. Again, it sounds familiar to what's happening with America where you got authorities who are more concerned with criminals than they are with the victims. Listen to this.
- [04:56]
E
11 police officers turned up.
- [04:58]
B
Yeah.
- [04:58]
E
I mean, that's completely ridiculous.
- [05:00]
B
Yeah.
- [05:01]
A
I'd left my front door open and.
- [05:02]
B
I was waiting for my dad to come to the house and I was actually in the bath at 11. They opened the door themselves and just came in and came in.
- [05:10]
E
And you're in the bath.
- [05:11]
B
Yeah.
- [05:14]
A
You know why they came in? Because she called her attacker from a previous incident. A mean name on a text. Yes. Her attacker a mean name on the text. And yet that attacker has yet to be arrested. Roll that next clip, by the way. We have that.
- [05:35]
B
Then I end up getting arrested a week after that.
- [05:38]
E
And what's happened with the.
- [05:40]
B
No one ever came back to me to discuss that. No one wanted statements from me. They were just obviously more. It seemed like they were.
- [05:45]
E
There's been no prosecution. So the fact you were assaulted was deemed to be less serious, it would appear, than the fact you'd use this F word in communication, private communication with this woman you'd had a falling out with.
- [05:58]
C
Yeah.
- [06:01]
A
It'S absolute lunacy. And we see signs of that happening here in America, which is why I profile this tonight. Well, I want to bring in now a good friend of mine, you know him, he's a very well known British actor who's appeared in Rambo, Anaconda and so many more movies. Matthew Marsden is back with me. Matthew, it is great to see you. Welcome to the program, my friend.
- [06:26]
All right, Matthew, what is happening in your home country?
- [06:31]
C
It's shocking, isn't it? I mean, I look at that. I'm so, firstly, I want to say I'm so grateful that I am now an American citizen and that I have all the rights afforded to me by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. I've argued for a very long time with people in my own, my former country that they don't have a right to free speech. And for the longest time they would be pushing back. And I'd say, look, it's very different. We have this enshrined as a right for us as Americans and you do not have that. And since the labor government has got in, not only have they gone full bore on going after things like this, they're actually letting people out of prison, they're letting violent offenders out of prison and they're letting people walk who are asylum seekers that have committed heinous crimes. So the name, the nickname that Keir Starmer has is Two Tier kia. And this is the reason why, look.
- [07:30]
A
We profiled last night Keir Starmer, one of his top deputies. There was a whole program to go after outlets like Breitbart and the Gateway Pundit and other conservative outlets to literally shut them down, much like they were trying to do in the United States states. So they're so concerned about the truth getting out. I believe it's the same thing that liberals are concerned about here. What should we as Americans? Two questions for you, Matthew. What can we do to help freedom loving Brits and what should we do to make sure that it doesn't get even worse here in the United States?
- [08:03]
C
Well, I think the first thing we need to do is do things like this is we need to have people like you speak out and let the Brits over there understand that they have a voice and their American cousins have their back. I think that is really, really important because as you know, in any of these kind of like communist states, which is where. Sorry, that's my dog, keeps giving me something here. Grant, I apologize. He just came in, is that what we need to do is let them know how far they are going and what their rights really are, because it's gaslighting to the highest degree. And I think that what we should do in America is understand that if we give any of these liberals so much as an inch, they will take a mile. They will not stop because this is what they want. They tried it back, remember, under Biden, they tried to come up. I can't remember what that panel they had they were gonna have that would go through and say whether or not what you said was acceptable. I can't remember what the name of that is now.
- [09:04]
A
Right now Police.
- [09:06]
C
But yes, it's basically the truth Police. But it's really ser. And I'll tell you this, I'd say like 75 to 80% of people in the UK have had enough of this and if they could, they would have a general election tomorrow.
- [09:20]
A
When did this happen? When did you notice? Oh, things are really going downhill.
- [09:27]
C
I think Covid. Covid was the first step. And I think because, look, Americans are freedom loving and they have this rebellious streak in them. That's why I love it so much. It's this rugged individualism that people always talk about. And I think that the uk, you've seen the kind of memes that they have. Keep calm and carry on. And I think that the British public were kind of compliant and they were saying, look, you know, our government has our best interests at heart. And by the way, this is under the previous government, this is under the Tories. So they used to, you know, they've got our best interests at heart. And then they started clamping down on the freedoms. And as you know, it doesn't matter whether you're a conservative or a liberal government or left wing government, you should never give them any power at all because they're never gonna give any of it back. So that's when it really started. And I think that we had a lot more pushback in the United States because I remember when I first did Black Hawk down and I really heard people talk about freedom in the United States and it really meant something. And I think it meant something different in the United Kingdom. But certainly they are looking to America. Like, by the way, Grant, I'll tell you this, my whole life I've looked to America as the inspiration as a shining city on a hill. And I think that Brits are doing that right now and they need us to stand up and encourage them and say, hey, listen, we are with you. And I'm totally down For England being the 51st state.
- [10:58]
A
Well, it's gonna have to be 52 after Canada, of course. So we'll be adding all kinds of states to us here. Lastly, let me play this one clip. This is former Prime Minister Liz Truss. She was on War Room this morning with. With my buddy Steve Bannon. Take a listen to this, and then I'll get your reaction.
- [11:13]
B
In the 2016 period. And he saw people undermine him from within his own administration.
- [11:22]
That is the experience many elected leaders now have in Western countries. And it's not just America and Britain, although I think Britain has the deepest deep state. It is pretty common tactic of the left now to take over the judiciary, to take over the bureaucracy, and to not prosecute their arguments through the ballot box.
- [11:46]
A
So, Matthew, she was saying Trump faced the deep state in 2016, as he does now, but she said that the UK has the deep state even worse than the United States. Would you agree?
- [11:59]
C
It's difficult because I think it's different. I think if you look at the way that the Founding Fathers set up the United States, it really allowed for that separation. You know, you got your different, apart from having the federal judiciary, but you still have your separate states to a degree. So, like, when I wanted to get out of the Communist state of California, I could move to Dallas, Texas, and as my friends always told me, move to America with the Brits. They're a little bit more. They're very centered and they go a little bit to the left and then a little bit to the right. But I think the problem is the pressure that is being put on the judiciary to move more. Cause these people have been around forever. It's not like you get the Soros das or, you know, the Soros judges coming in. It's like almost like it's a peerage, right? And it takes a long time. So it's more like the pressure that they are exerting on them, both financially and otherwise, to lean one way or the other. So it's very nefarious. And by the way, and what Keir Starmer did was promote probably the stupidest man in the Parliament, David Lammy, to be his second in command. So that's kind of like one of those things where everyone's looking going, please don't let that man become the prime minister, because he's even worse than Keir Starmer. So that's a job security move.
- [13:20]
A
I think this is what liberals do. Look at Kamala Harris. She's somebody. If there's anybody dumber than her, it may be Tim Walls. And that's who she puts as her number two. So, Matthew Marsden, it's always great talking to you. I appreciate you coming on the program. Matthew D. Marsden on, on X is where you can find him. Thank you, buddy.
- [13:38]
C
Thank you, bud.
- [13:39]
A
All right. Absolutely. All right. Speaking of those inside government that just want to push back against anything President Trump does, let's turn to the war on drugs and the possible war against Venezuela. I want you to take a look at this video. Oh, this is going to light liberals up. Besides lighting that drug boat up, that is a Coast guard helicopter with a.50 caliber rifle taking out four engines of that drug boat in the Pacific Ocean headed towards the United States of America. Of course, a Coast Guard cutter then intercepts it as it's completely debilitated and seizes. You ready for this? £20,000 of cocaine. Now, that cocaine was headed for America. That cocaine is bad news for America. But I want you to listen to the Democrats here and, and how they make arguments for drug dealers. The entire point, I guess, is to try to stop drugs from coming into the United States or severely restrict their flow. There's no evidence at this point that the flow has been severely restricted. And again, remember, we're talking about cocaine here. Fentanyl is the primary killer in America. That is what people are overdosing on. And this entire operation has nothing to do with fentanyl.
- [14:54]
You tell a parent whose kid dies of a cocaine overdose that that doesn't mean anything. Only fentanyl matters. They're so dumb. Well, now they're going to try to file or refile, I should say, war powers resolutions to try to curb President Trump where he has to go to them for approval. It will fail. It failed last month. And I don't think they're going to be getting anywhere with that. I want to bring in now former special assistant to President Trump. He is an army colonel, retired. Derek Harvey is back with us. Colonel Harvey, it's great to have you on the program. I'll ask you real quick. This War Powers Resolution, we have something called Article 2 in America, President Trump is well within his rights here. Do you agree, Colonel?
- [15:36]
F
Absolutely. And they are trying to do a bait and switch. They are trying to enmesh this argument that dealing with this drug issue, first of all, they tried to make these insinuations on false premises about, you know, the president exceeding his authority in attacking and killing some survivors. And then it's now shifted to, well, attacking boats is illegal. It should be legally addressed through criminal processes. And now they're bringing out this canard of it's a war powers initiative. And they're going to try to limit the President's authority by executing the War Powers act which would put some limit notification in 60 days and things. But the courts have continuously said that the President has wide authority. Look at what Obama did for eight years in going after terrorism targets and double tapping most targets. The President is going after drugs and drug boats. We are not in Venezuela. And if we go into Venezuela it's very similar to going into Yemen or some other place where you go after the terrorist based activity. Very precise, intelligence driven targets that have been legally vetted by, by Pentagon and DOJ lawyers.
- [16:54]
A
Look, as a military guy, you, not me, but you, you can't have the President going to Congress to get approval every time he needs to make a military strike. I'm not totally adverse to 60, you know, 48 hours after you got to update Congress on what happens in a classified setting. I got no problems with that. But you can't go for approval every time you're going to make a strike. We could all be dead if you would have to do something like that, Colonel.
- [17:24]
F
Well, this War Powers act is mainly designed to prevent the President from launching an invasion and sustaining land based combat operations against another nation state. In this case we are dealing with going after terrorists who are affiliated with the drug trade and are sponsored and supported by President Maduro and his regime. That's what makes it so, so difficult to deal with. But the President has not gone over any lines that would trigger, you know, even notification. Initiating a no fly zone over this over the country is not combat or hostile action in the country of Venezuela. Our actions on the high seas are a very different category.
- [18:11]
A
Colonel, let me ask you, it seems to me that these war powers resolutions are just used by the opposite party if it suits them well. And Presidents have been arguing over this power going back to Thomas Jefferson. And most of the time this happened after, after Nixon when we introduced this resolution. But Presidents ignore this stuff all the time, am I right?
- [18:36]
F
Absolutely. And in the modern era in particular, when you have the significant military capabilities, space based capabilities, land and air sea capabilities, even drones that can be delivered into ports or airfields by small terrorist groups, the nature of warfare and conflict is so different, so complicated and so fast paced that this is an archaic mechanism.
- [19:05]
A
Yeah. Colonel Derek Harvey, it's always great to have you on. I hope you enjoy your weekend. I know we had you on a couple times this week. Thank you for that. We appreciate you sir. Thank you. Grant Take care. Absolutely. All right, I want to turn now to the D.C. pipe bomber. You know, the guy who allegedly put pipe bombs outside both the RNC and the DNC back on January 6, 2020. We are learning more about the suspect. Apparently he is a recluse who wears Crocs and shorts in the wintertime as he walks his dog in very cold weather. A Chihuahua, by the way, that police say, and the FBI says is him getting ready to lay those bombs outside the RNC and dnc. Now, he lived at home with his mom. Apparently he was a bail bondsman. And by the way, here's a picture of him. He happens to be black. Not that it matters to me what color he is, but I thought someone should tell Jake Capper of CNN.
- [20:08]
D
They.
- [20:09]
A
Had arrested a suspect, a suspect accused of planting pipe bombs near the Republican and Democratic National Committee headquarters the night before the January 6, 2021 Capitol attack.
- [20:20]
D
Brian Cole Jr. A 30 year old.
- [20:22]
A
White man from the D.C. suburbs.
- [20:27]
A 30 year old white man. He's not white at all. How about you get your facts straight before you start trying to blame the evil white man on anything? And again, folks, I could care less whether he's black or white. If he laid those pipe bombs down there, he ought to be arrested. He ought to be arrested very, very quickly. So why didn't they arrest him sooner? Okay, this is Pam Bondi, cut 23.
- [20:52]
B
This case languished. It sat there for four years collecting dust. No one did anything to solve this. And right when Cash Patel and Dan Bongino came in, Dan said to me, Dan said to all of us, I'm going to solve this case. He put a new team on it, working with Jeanine Pirro, our U.S. attorney, with Todd Blanche, with all of our attorneys at Main Justice. A new team gathered on this case.
- [21:19]
A
So it appears they didn't even try to solve this case. Why would that be? I want to bring in now to discuss all of this former FBI special agent and counterterrorism expert. Our friend John Buandolo is back with us. John, welcome to the program.
- [21:32]
G
It's great to be back on with you, Grant. Thank you.
- [21:35]
A
All right, John, so why would they bury it? I mean, I know Christopher Wray. Did they think that it was a leftist who was, who was laying these bombs there? It didn't fit a narrative. I mean, what would stop the FBI from chasing a pipe bomber.
- [21:49]
Right?
- [21:50]
G
Well, under normal circumstances, nothing. I think, you know, what we're supposed to do as FBI agents. As you follow the facts and evidence, you Collect the facts and evidence and you see where it points and you, you go there and it's, that's supposed to be unencumbered by anything else. I think the, based on everything else we know about what was going on under the Comey regime and to date during the Christopher Wray regime.
- [22:24]
That was not apolitical. That was not only was political. In a lot of cases it was, they were breaking the law and acting on behalf of if not hostile foreign powers. Certainly hostility, showing hostility towards the US Constitution.
- [22:46]
A
All right, let me play a clip from Cash Patel who was on with John Solomon in just the news yesterday. Listen to his assessment. We didn't come up with new evidence. We didn't get a tip. This case is five years old. We simply. And Deputy Director Bongino spearheaded this effort, went back and said this is an individual who tried to bomb the United States Capitol, rnc, dnc, innocent civilians and elected legislatures. The epicenter, epicenter of our constitutional government. It's on video. Why can't we find this man? It's either sheer incompetence or negligence by the prior administration.
- [23:24]
So either incompetence or negligence, both are really bad. If it's incompetence, what should happen to the agents that were on the case? Because I fear, John, it may be more than incompetence. And I don't think it was true. Just oh, they were so focused on January Sixers and that took their focus off. I think there was a cover up and an active attempt just not to investigate this.
- [23:48]
G
Well, I would, I would actually concur with that assessment. And I do. I think that the evidence, again the facts we now have and have had for some time on the table under with regards to some of these major issues. January 6th, the Russia hoax and the federal government, from the President to the FBI leadership to national security leadership, the State Department working with hostile foreign powers. And now you have a case. And I want to really say something about this particular case is The FBI director, Mr. Patel made this point. No new evidence was developed. New agents came in. According to what the director just said, new agents were brought in and they started just looking at the evidence. I read the affidavit that the FBI.
- [24:45]
Swore to to get the search and arrest warrant in this case. And this is. These are basic investigative techniques, looking at surveillance footage, comparing, you know, identifying who was in the area using license plate readers and other things. And so we've got a person who we know based on their cell phone were at these places or at least within a Pretty small radius based on technology at the time that these bombs were. These bombs were put in. So I think the evidence is there. So, no, I do not think it's just the agents that were previously assigned weren't aware of these basic investigative techniques.
- [25:35]
A
Yeah, yeah, I'm with you. This was an active attempt just not to investigate this at all. John Guandolo, it's always a pleasure having you on the program. Thank you, sir.
- [25:45]
G
Thank you for having me.
- [25:47]
A
All right, you find him@john guandolo.com, folks. All right, I also.
- [25:54]
Want to make sure they got the guy. Okay? The right guy. And there's not more to this story, and I do believe nothing is ever what it totally seems sometimes. But not often. Not in the world we live in lately. All right, Somali scammers have allegedly given donations to Minnesota Democrats. That story is next.
- [26:18]
E
Hey there.
- [26:18]
A

- [27:44]

Welcome back, everyone. The amount of fraud committed by Somalis in Minnesota is staggering. It's $1 billion and growing. And how does the governor of Minnesota respond? Now think about this. He could have been our vice president if Kamala Harris had won going through this, all this fraud, if he was vice president, that would have been disastrous. Thank God he didn't win. This is Governor Walz Clint's question about.
- [28:57]
B
When you knew or became aware new. I mean, growth in these programs.
- [29:03]
A
We can put out anything on there. Yes.
- [29:04]
B
You know, things come up in these forecasts. Before, some of the programs that were exploding, the housing program, the autism, that didn't, like, raise any alarms.
- [29:12]
A
These are new programs, a lot of them. Some happened ahead of time. And I think for all of us.
- [29:17]
E
There have been these incidents, whether it's.
- [29:19]
A
In Medicaid, Medicare, whatever it would be.
- [29:23]
Oh, I'll just wipe my hands of it. Because it happens all over the place in government. Unacceptable. So now we're learning. Thanks to Kelly Lefler, who's the head of the Small Business Administration. They were bilking them too. They found about a million dollars. Listen to her explain it.
- [29:42]
B
And so when I first heard of the billion dollar corruption, my mind immediately went to ppp and I said from day one when I came in, it's a new day. It's the sba. We are going to crack down on the fraud that the Biden administration completely overlooked, swept under the rug for four years, and it wasn't that hard. Within 48 hours, we already found $1 million worth of fraud within the Minnesota Somali crime network. And we're going to continue to investigate.
- [30:08]
A
That's in 48 hours. This is like when Elon Musk was on the Doge case. I mean, it just starts. You start finding the waste, fraud and abuse in minutes. So think about this. You had Covid. You have the immigration debacle, and you have the woke agenda. Nonprofits proliferated themselves like you wouldn't believe. And the money started flowing. Senator Kennedy, once again, they couldn't find.
- [30:33]
E
Enough autistic children, so they bribed the many parents in the community, gave them money to certify that their children were autistic.
- [30:43]
A
In the first year, they only, they were clever.
- [30:45]
E
They only asked for $3 million.
- [30:48]
A
And in 22, $280 million.
- [30:53]
E
And in 2023, $400 million.
- [31:01]
A
Well, they got busted probably because they got greedy. They also got busted because of the Manhattan Institute. I'm not sure we'd know about this story if it wasn't for the Manhattan Institute, Christopher Rufo, who led the investigation into this. And with that, I want to bring on the Vice President of External affairs for the Manhattan Institute who is intimately involved in all of this. Jesse Arm is with us. Jesse, welcome to the program having me.
- [31:26]
D
It's great to be with you and I appreciate the kind words. This is an important story.
- [31:30]
A
Well, it sure is, Jesse. What tipped you all off to this? How did it come about?
- [31:36]
D
Absolutely. Well, it's all really the work of my colleague Christopher Rufo and Ryan Thorpe, both working, working for our affiliated magazine, City Journal. Here's the bottom line. Minnesota is not dealing with a fraud problem. It's dealing with a full scale breakdown of government under this half wit governor in Tim Walls, where billions in taxpayer money were looted by criminal networks operating largely inside of the state's large Somali community. And there weren't just bookkeeping errors. They were sprawling deliberate schemes, fake housing providers, fake autism clinics and nonprofits claiming to feed thousands of phantom ghost children every day who never existed. The state's welfare system wasn't abused around the edges. It was converted into a cash machine for fraudsters who understood that no one in power would dare confront them. All right.
- [32:39]
A
I've made the assessment that liberal leaders took a blind eye to this. My guess was I'm going to ask you, were they aware of it because of the WOKE agenda that was flourishing? They didn't want to look racist. We can't go after the Somali community. Am I on to something with that? Were they fully aware and turned a blind eye to this or did this catch them by saying surprise too?
- [33:03]
D
Absolutely. It's that cowardice that is the real story here. Waltz and Minnesota Democrats built welfare programs that almost had no safeguards, no verification. And there was this political culture in the state where raising basic questions was treated as racism.
- [33:22]
A
Okay.
- [33:22]
D
When auditors were asked why a brand new provider was suddenly billing 10 times the extreme expected amount of. Or why autism claims exploded from a few million to suddenly multiple hundreds of millions, they were waved off. That deliberate blindness created the perfect environment for organized fraud. And federal counterterrorism officials now confirm that stolen money moved through clan based hawala networks where Al Shabaab took its cut. That's a terrorist organization.
- [33:54]
A
Okay.
- [33:55]
D
Whether the fraudsters meant it or not, American welfare dollars ended up enriching an Al Qaeda affiliate. And that should be enough to make every American sick.
- [34:06]
A
So everybody out there at home knows Ilhan Omar, the congresswoman from Minnesota. She's Somali. She's been on camera basically pledging allegiance to Somalia, not the United States. She's got all kinds of issues, marrying her brother. I'm going to ask you this. Do you think she was one of the catalysts in enabling this to flourish? And why the Somali community in Minnesota? I know there's about 80,000 of them. It's a lot. But it's not a huge percentage of Minnesota by any means. Why the Somalis?
- [34:36]
D
Well, look, Ilhan Omar is a piece of this. This is someone whose political circle keeps interacting with these same schemes. Her campaign worker has pleaded guilty to this fraud. A restaurant tour who hosted her victory party was convicted of stealing millions. A nonprofit she promoted called Feeding Our Future became the centerpiece of a $250 million heist that gutted a federal child nutrition program. Okay. Omar wrote the legislation that opened up the floodgates for this whole ordeal. Nobody claims personally that she was the architect of the entire fraud, but the overlap between her world and the criminal networks is impossible to ignore. Minnesota didn't just suffer a bureaucratic failure here. It suffered a political failure from the target top down, where fear of offending a powerful voting bloc. These Somalian migrants who have been imported in large numbers to the state, who have been given nothing but sort of love, affection, and opportunity from the American people, are now the most basic duty of governance they have failed at. Because with this crime, and this is, these are people from their community that have carried this. This action out. And the result is billions gone, a terror group enriched, and a Democratic establishment still pretending that they had no warning signs along the way.
- [35:52]
A
Last question for you. Real quick, if you can, for me. So Keith Ellison, who's the attorney general, he was on basically tape being caught saying, hey, there's nothing like the money, and basically enabling a lot of this stuff with organizers of these nonprofits and the fraud groups that have been arrested. You've got Ilhan Omar. She's taken some money, about 50, $53,000 in campaign donations between a bunch of Democrats in Minnesota. Should Ellison and Omar be investigated for their role in all of this? Should there be a federal investigation into those elected leaders? Real quick, if you can, for me, Jesse?
- [36:30]
D
Yeah, yeah, there absolutely should be. And Secretary of Treasury Scott Besson has already announced several actions that he's going to be taking to look into just how this happened, whether actual any American welfare dollars ended up in the hands of all Shabab terrorists. And I do believe that this president's administration is going to get down to the bottom of these questions. Minnesota Democrats, man, they really produce some real winners. So yeah, this is, we're gonna get to the bottom of this.
- [36:55]
A
Well, it's great work. You know, over and over again I see without private organizations like the Manhattan Institute and others investigating so many of these situations, we wouldn't know about them. And really, I think you she saved the taxpayers of America, certainly Minnesota as well, a lot of money by, by blowing the lid on this one. Jesse arm, thank you and a big thanks to Christopher Ruffo and the and the whole crew at the Manhattan Institute.
- [37:17]
D
Thanks for having me.
- [37:19]

- [38:48]
Welcome back, everyone. Well, our body language segment is back. My favorite segment of the week. And we got an oldie but a goodie normal person who appears on the body language segment. Of course, that would be Joe Biden. We have not heard from him in a while. He gave a speech to some LGBTQ rights deal today. Check it out. We just have to get up. As long as we keep the faith, summon hope and get back up. And remember who in the hell we are. We the United States of America. That's who we are.
- [39:22]
E
We're the US and there's nothing.
- [39:25]
A
I mean, oh, boy, he's going back to the old lines and he's not even doing them well. I want to bring in the host of the behavior panel on YouTube, former military interrogator and body language behavior expert Greg Hartley is here. Greg, welcome. What did you see there from old Joe.
- [39:41]
E
So, Grant, we talked a long time ago about. This is like a roach. When lights come on, they have all these routines. All these politicians get there. These career politicians, they get to a point they've got all these things they do well, and those become neural paths that get thicker and thicker and thicker. The more times you do, it takes about 2,000 repetitions to create a neural path. And as you start to age and those things start to pair off, they're the last things to go. Well, it looks like we're getting to the end of the ride right here because he's not even doing the old stuff right.
- [40:08]
A
Man, you know, in. His voice was gone. I mean, I know that happens when you get old. I mean, could you imagine if he had been in for a second term? There's no way he could have carried it out. But is he much worse than when you've last seen him?
- [40:21]
E
Well, we don't know. He probably has been asleep up until right here. He walks right out. We don't know. I mean, this is about a little better than the debate performance. The debate was worse than this. He had no idea where he was at at times in the debate in terms of speaking. So he was lost. But us United States of America got it is pretty lost in itself. I don't know.
- [40:40]
A
It really is. Speaking of lost in themselves, Tim Walls, we've been talking a lot about him. Thank God he's not vice president now with all the Minnesota fraud going on. He's very upset that President Trump and others have used the R word for retard.
- [41:00]
To describe him. Listen to this. I'd never seen this before. People driving my house by my house and using the R word in front of people. This is shameful. And I have yet to see an elected official, a Republican elected official, say, you're right, that's shameful. He should not say it. So, look, I'm. I'm worried. We know how these things go. They start with taunts, they turn to violence. So deeply concerned.
- [41:24]
Greg.
- [41:26]
E
Look at all that passion in his hands and all. He's telling ghost stories around the Democrat campfires. What he's doing, he's making it out that this is a horrible, horrible, horrible thing about to happen. And these are precursors to it. Look at all the anger in his face, all the things that should be there, even the down aggression and all that. If, if there were somebody challenging him on this, we'd see different body language because stress causes different body language. But when you're standing in front of your. In front of your constituents and you go storytelling, this looks like he's doing the right thing for his constituents.
- [41:54]
A
What's the difference between guys who like to stand behind a podium and guys who want the mic? When I give speeches, I like the mic. I like to walk the stage. A lot of guys will say, no, I want to be behind the podium. Is there anything you read into that?
- [42:07]
E
No. Some people just aren't comfortable out in front of people. I'm quite comfortable. I actually hate a handheld mic because I talk with my hands so much. I feel like a lounge singer when I'm trying to talk and move on stage with a mic. And so I don't feel as comfortable behind a podium either. I have a way to find myself out and get among people, but I think some people are so accustomed that it just feels like a good anchor point. And even when Hillary Clinton was running for president the first time, she would rarely leave it and keep her hand on it when she was talking. So it's completely got it.
- [42:34]
A
Interesting. Okay, next one. Ilhan Omar on CNN talking about the fraud going on in Minnesota.
- [42:44]
B
I think what happened is that, you know, when.
- [42:48]
A
When you have these kind of new.
- [42:49]
B
Programs that are designed to help people.
- [42:54]
A
You'Re oftentimes relying on third parties to be able to facilitate.
- [42:59]
D
And I just think that a lot.
- [43:00]
A
Of the COVID programs that were set.
- [43:03]
B
Up, they were set up so quickly.
- [43:05]
A
That a lot of the guardrails did not get created.
- [43:09]
Greg, let me set this up with this. I believe she knew about the fraud going on, and I want an investigation for that. With that assumption from me, when you look at her, what can you tell?
- [43:20]
E
The first thing I'm going to say is this, because, remember, I'm an intel collector first. Body language came second. When I hear common language from uncommon places, I want to know why she just used the same language we heard Walsh use earlier new programs. That sounds like an industrialized talking point from this organization of people running that whole government in Minnesota. So I want to hear what's going on there as well. That's number one. Number two, when she's talking about Third parties look at a little disgust in her face as the sides of her face rise. And then finally, after she's delivered this whole message again with no stress applied, because Tapper is not going to. To push her, you see, she looks away, looks down to her right and does a little disapproval as if she's wondering how what she has said will be perceived or construed or, or analyzed. Like what we're doing here.
- [44:05]
A
Is that subconscious when someone does that? Yeah.
- [44:08]
E
I think when we're thinking, if you sit right now and you make a mistake when you're talking and then you look away and go like, she's not doing that intentionally at the very end. It's just part of who she is. And let me play disgust thing is one of seven universal emotions that all humans do, regardless of where we're at.
- [44:24]
A
All right. I specifically do it when I watch her. So.
- [44:29]
Here'S President Trump. He was at FIFA today. He got a peace award, the FIFA Peace award, which he deserves more than that, by the way, when it comes to peace. Let's. Let's roll. President Trump.
- [44:47]
This is your prize. This is your peace prize. There is also a beautiful medal for you that you can wear everywhere you want to go.
- [45:01]
G
Right now.
- [45:02]
A
Okay, let me hold. Fantastic. Excellent.
- [45:09]
What do you think, Greg?
- [45:11]
E
Ever the showman, his timing is right. He makes sure he made contact before he put the thing on to make sure he was showing people he was going to do it. He telegraphs whatever what he's saying. He's a showman.
- [45:19]
A
Is that from all his experience in tv?
- [45:22]
E
Well, I think it's from all his experience. He's been in front. I would say the left hates him, but they created him with all the media they gave him. In the 80s, he's been in front of TV, he's been in front of the media. He's been in front of people his whole life. So he's just. His timing is sharp.
- [45:36]
A
A showman is a great way to explain it. He knows how to put a show on. He really does. Greg Hartley, as always, it's great having you on the program. Let me tell people how to get to your website site. You got it, my friend. Here it is. Read body language.com. that's readbodylanguage.com and the YouTube show, the behavior Panel. Thanks again, Greg.
- [45:55]
E
Thanks. See?
- [45:56]
A
All right. As you just saw, FIFA was drooling all over President Trump today. That's a good thing. We'll get more into that next.
- [46:10]
Foreign.
- [46:15]
Welcome back, everyone. So we're waiting for President Trump to hold a concert with Andrea Botticelli in the White House tonight. We're going to take you out to that when it happens. But he's been a busy guy today. So we know we have the World cup coming to the United States. FIFA World cup basically had President Trump pull names for where everyone would be stacked as these teams play each other. Well, you're not going to believe who President Trump. Pol. He didn't pull all the names. He reached in to pull one and guess who he pulls. I think I know what this is going to be now.
- [46:48]
G
Everything.
- [46:50]
A
But let's see. Are you sure? Are you sure this is the ball you want? You can still change it if you want. Does he know something that I don't know? Let's give it a shot. Let's give it a shot. Let's give it a shot. I agree.
- [47:03]
Okay.
- [47:08]
This is shocking.
- [47:09]
C
United States of America.
- [47:15]
A
You know what it reminds me of? It reminds me of the Mavericks pulling the number one pick for Cooper Flag after they had to trade my man Luka Doncic to the Lakers. That whole thing was a setup job. That may have been a setup job there, too. I don't know. What are the chances of that, by the way? Have no idea what. All right, real quickly, I want to tell you gold is making all kinds of names. And this is not an ad for gold, by the way, but I'm a big fan of Gold Rush. Parker Schnabel, anybody who watches the show Gold Rush, where they go up to Alaska, buy for gold, he's got a warning to America about the rising price of gold. I saw this. I thought you should see it.
- [47:57]
D
It's a direct vote against the people's confidence in the US Dollar.
- [48:01]
A
Right.
- [48:04]
D
And you look at the amount of.
- [48:06]
A
Debt that the United States has and the complete lack of.
- [48:13]
D
Attention to it from anybody in Washington, right? There's zero interest in dealing with the debt.
- [48:21]
A
All right, so Parker Schnabel saying gold going to 30, $800 an ounce. I actually believe gold's going to go to $10,000 is a direct result of the economy. We know the dollar is getting weaker in some respects. President Trump says we need a weaker dollar to push back against the currency manipulation from the Chinese. There's a lot of play in all of this. So don't buy into whatever the mainstream media is telling you. But you know what? It's not a Birch Gold segment, but for our friends at Birchgold, it's a great place to get in on. On it all.
- [48:57]
I'm trying to Think what we should do here because we've got President Trump almost, almost here. What's that, Mr. Producer? Okay, here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna take a quick break because we're expecting President Trump will try to pay some bills and then get back before he gets into the White House to hear Andrea Boticelli.
- [49:25]
All right, folks, it appears the president is making his way into this room. I believe it may be the East Room, where we are going to hear from Andrea Botticelli as well.
- [49:38]
Here he comes. When you hear that music, you know the boss is on his way. President Donald J. Trump. You know, he gets some great guests at the White House. Andrea Botticelli. What more could you ask for? Let's go out and listen.
- [50:16]
You go. So I thought he was going to walk straight down towards the camera. He didn't. Hey, I'm going to take this time. Real quickly, a huge thanks to Devin Nunes, the man who basically exposed the Russian collusion hoax. He's the CEO of Trump Media, while he also has Devin Nunes wine company. Devin Nunes Wine. This guy sent me a whole bunch of bottles of wine. And so I'm going to give him a big thank you. And I do that as I send out to our boss and his boss, Donald J. Trump. Take it, Veronica.
- [50:50]
G
Thank you. He was so good today at the FIFA awards. We had the FIFA and it was award. It was an award for me. I can tell you.
- [50:58]

This is an I heart podcast. Guaranteed human.
