Main Theme & Purpose

This episode dives deep into emerging threats to U.S. national security. Sarah Adams, leveraging her frontline CIA experience and counterterrorism expertise, presents a candid assessment of where global dangers truly lie—emphasizing that the most severe threats may not be where mainstream perception expects. The discussion moves through recent bioterror and terrorist threats, confusion and cover-ups within U.S. policy, ongoing Taliban funding, failures in hostage negotiation, and how U.S. adversaries are adapting far faster than Western bureaucracies.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Emerging Biolab Threats in the U.S.

• FBI Biolab Raid in Las Vegas:
  • Chinese national called JB Zu was already on trial for trafficking illegal Covid/HIV kits; found with fridges full of unknown vials, some labeled “Ebola” and “TB.”
  • CDC tested samples, found 20+ pathogens, including HIV and tuberculosis.
  • Concern: “I do believe Al Qaeda has similar type of things on US soil, but I have not seen anything to say this is an Al Qaeda one. But yeah, I’d be very concerned because one of Al Qaeda’s is in Nevada…”
    — Sarah Adams [01:14]
  • Notable: Al Qaeda has Nevada-based labs; “one of their labs is in Nevada.”
  • Lab types: Some for bombs/IEDs, some with chemical detonators. Some bombs are designed so if the explosion doesn’t kill, chemicals will ([03:24]).

---

2. On the Epstein Files & Elites

• Sarah and Shawn discuss recent mass leaks and public reactions:
  • Most tips in the files are “ramblings” and not highly classified facts. (Context-lacking speculation abused by public) [05:05]
  • “If you read Epstein’s files, the person pulling the strings is Qatar… Qatar is in control of the Middle East. That’s the point.” — Sarah Adams [08:08]
  • Elites’ depravity and corruption are far more systemic than most realize.
  • “You don’t need Jeffrey Epstein to like lure them in to sleep with a 12-year-old. They’re doing it in other locations too.” — Sarah Adams [09:12]
  • On blackmail: “I don’t actually think he was doing it purely to blackmail them. I think he was doing it for influence, money, relationships.” [09:38]
  • Speculation about intelligence ties (Mossad/CIA) not supported by concrete evidence in the documents. [14:04]

---

3. Systemic U.S. Policy Corruption & Taliban Funding

• Politicians use issues for social media fodder, not action ([22:05]).
• U.S. still sending Taliban $87 million/week via various channels:
  • $40M humanitarian (misappropriated)
  • $47M counterterrorism (Doha Deal, refusal to cancel due to political ego).
  • U.S. government misleads public about payment status ([24:03]), with Sarah personally collecting proof of cash delivery in January ([25:01]).
  • Funding also laundered via the UN, World Bank, World Food Program (provides food to terrorist camps) ([25:55]).
  • Taliban holding multiple U.S. hostages; U.S. fails to apply pressure or use legal executive avenues to retrieve them ([28:45]-[32:34]).
    • “...they have this law on the books and they’re not using it against the Taliban.” — Sarah Adams [29:12]
    • Hostage details: Mahmoud Shah Habibi (tortured), Dennis Cole (untried), Paul Overby (presumed dead).
  • “How can nobody be talking about the fact that Taliban is holding American hostages while we pay them...87 million a week?” — Shawn Ryan [32:34]

---

4. Fake Media Influence Campaigns by Terror Groups & States

• Taliban and China use Western influencers to “travel-blog” as propaganda, staging false portrayals of normalcy, safety, and progress to court international perception ([34:51]-[36:19]).

---

5. Homeland Plot – Largest Terror Threat to U.S.

[Starts Deep Dive: 38:41]

• Overview: Homeland Plot is a multiphase, multi-group coordinated terrorist campaign targeting the U.S., blending Al Qaeda’s methodology with innovations from ISIS and affiliated organizations.
• Objectives: ‘Positive’ internal messaging — “honoring” Osama Bin Laden and previous mujahedeen, avenging Muslims imprisoned post-9/11, bringing prior failed plots to fruition ([38:59]).
• Key Plots:
  • Aviation Plot: Revival of 30-year-old “Bojinka,” aiming to down 12 airliners over the United States ([40:54]).
    • Old masterminds and bombmakers being resurrected/redeployed for credibility and technical expertise.
    • Testing and training now conducted at former U.S. bases (e.g., Camp Chapman/Coast—now suicide bomber training centers).
  • Command Structure: Each plot now has multiple “commanders” running their own cells; “every one of them is a boss”—over two dozen commanders on U.S. soil ([46:18]).
  • Cell Structure: Cells now mix members of Al Qaeda, ISIS, Al Shabaab, and others to exploit U.S. agencies’ categorical blind spots ([48:27]).
• Operational Security: Strictly human couriers, aliases, operatives do not know each others’ real identities—virtually impossible to unravel entirely ([50:32]).
• Timeline & Setbacks: Training, bombmaking, deployment have strict deadlines (third week Dec 2025); delays from leadership losses (e.g., strikes in Pakistan, Iraq), but plot remains active ([52:58]).
• Scale: 18,000+ known Islamist terrorists on U.S. soil, per Joe Kent testimony; operational cells are “waves,” not a single mass event ([62:59]).

---

6. Systemic Failures in U.S. Preparedness

• FBI major hurdle—downplays or dismisses the plot, blocks dissemination of warnings to local law enforcement ([21:02], [74:10]).
• DHS/TSA stopped shoe bomb screening, terrorists immediately update plans to exploit gap ([51:53]).
• Local sheriffs and officers more proactive than federal agencies, relying on their networks and briefings from Adams ([66:53]).
• “These are good people on the ground saying, we need to prepare our communities. Screw the FBI. We’re going to get ahead of this plot.” — Sarah Adams [67:03]
• NCTC/DNI finally creating an unclassified app for direct info-sharing with first responders ([76:25]-[77:13]).

---

7. Geopolitical Roundup & U.S. Foreign Policy Mistakes

• Iran: Nuclear negotiations continue, ignoring widespread regime abuses and mass arrests/killings of protesters ([115:21] onward).
  • U.S. policy—propping up regime for “predictable” outcomes, not people’s liberation.
• Syria: U.S. backing AQ-linked leadership (Abu Mohammed al-Jolani). Massacres and genocidal actions against Kurds with tacit U.S. approval. Continued release of ISIS/Al Qaeda prisoners ([127:16]-[132:55]).
  • “We’re inviting this guy into our country. He’s cutting people’s heads off.” — Shawn Ryan [129:02]
• China: No longer #1 military threat per National Defense Strategy. Focus shift to economic/cyber competition, less military (“strategic competition”) ([133:28]).
• Africa (JNIM, Al Shabaab):
  • Major gains by Al Qaeda affiliate JNIM in Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger.
  • Senior AQ operatives assumed dead are alive and running operations.
  • Al Shabaab encircling Mogadishu (within 10 miles)—government losing ground, U.S. aid funneled to jihadists ([142:06]-[144:11]).

---

8. Insider Anecdotes, Whistleblowing, and U.S. Bureaucracy Folly

• Sarah’s personal evidence-collection trips to expose government lies on terror funding.
• Reflection on running afoul of the FBI for sharing actionable intelligence ([150:47]), as they focus on inane priorities (“January 6th expert”).
• Tales of being targeted by Hezbollah and ISKP (personal bounties), being featured in ISIS propaganda videos ([145:17]-[147:38]).

---

9. Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On Political Ego Blocking Counterterror Efforts
  “We’re paying the fucking Taliban, damn near $100 million a week because somebody doesn’t want to hurt their fucking ego and admit that they made a mistake.”
  — Shawn Ryan [23:56]
• On U.S. Agencies’ Inaction
  “I feel the DNI has been somewhat supportive... Customs and Border Protection has been very supportive, and ATF has actually been supportive. Who hasn’t? It’s FBI. FBI is in charge of finding these terrorists on U.S. soil. So FBI is the biggest hurdle to stopping the U.S. Homeland plot.”
  — Sarah Adams [21:02]
• On the Threat Within
  “Al Qaeda put a thousand in the first wave... but there’s future waves... Joe Kent says there’s 18,000 terrorists on U.S. soil.”
  — Sarah Adams [62:59]
• On Corruption of U.S. Elites
  “You stay away from the elites because they’re not good people. They’re in the positions they’re in because they’re corrupt. They commit these crimes. They’re involved in child trafficking…”
  — Sarah Adams [09:12]
• On Real Policy Drivers in the Middle East
  “If you read Epstein’s files, the person pulling the strings is Qatar... Qatar is in control of the Middle East. That’s the point.”
  — Sarah Adams [08:08]
• On the New Threat Matrix
  “Now the cells are mixed. There’s an Al Shabaab guy, an HTS guy... an ISIS guy. They’re never going to find five guys from five different groups collaborating because it’s against their assessment.”
  — Sarah Adams [49:42]

Conclusion

This episode is a sobering, unvarnished look at the true state of terror and geopolitical threats facing the United States—contrasting the evolving adaptability of its adversaries with the self-serving inertia, denial, and internal squabbling among U.S. leadership and agencies. With biting honesty, Sarah Adams warns (and documents) how governmental failures and misplaced priorities create the very vulnerabilities that enemies are poised to exploit. The call to action is clear: recognize who (and what) the real threats are, before it’s too late.

Transcript

[Sarah Adams]

Foreign.

[Sean Ryan]

Have you seen this? FBI uncovers creepy home biolab packed with mystery vials in Vegas raid. Let me read. This is from Mario Noel's site. And then I looked. It's. It's real. FBI agents stormed Las Vegas. Residents discovering refrigerators stuffed with unlabeled vials of unknown liquid, suggesting a clandestine biological operation. The property links to jbzu, a Chinese national already facing charges for flooding the market with unapproved Covid and HIV test kits. This raid echoes his prior California fiasco where authorities found pathogen labels for Ebola and tuberculosis alongside 1,000 neglected mice. Source futurism. Have you seen that?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, I did. And they're saying the CDC has gone in and tested some of this stuff and they found 20, 20 different things inside these little vials. And they're saying they found hiv, tb, that there was one fridge or something that had like a sticker on the outside that said Ebola. So it's a little crazy. Well, I mean, concerning.

[Sean Ryan]

So I mean, you're spun up on the homeland plot. Could this. I mean, it says Chinese national, which is not generally what you cover, but I mean. But when I interviewed our mutual friend Jane, she was talking about biological weapons that were being developed in caves. And then she actually didn't even want to go too in depth on how nasty that stuff was because she didn't want to. She want to create a fear campaign, you know?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah.

[Sean Ryan]

So could this be.

[Sarah Adams]

That's a complicated thing. So at least from the ones the CDC has put out, it does not match up with the ones in Al Qaeda's lab. So Al Qaeda's labs, it's like sarin, anthrax, modified fentanyl, and that's at least not been any of the ones from this house. So I do believe Al Qaeda has similar type of things on US soil, but I have not seen anything to say that is an Al Qaeda one. But yeah, I'd be very concerned because one of Al Qaeda's is in Nevada. One of what Al Qaeda's is in like one of their labs is in Nevada.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy shit. How do you know that?

[Sarah Adams]

Because obviously we've been collecting on the plot and we heard about it.

[Sean Ryan]

Where are the other labs? How many labs are there?

[Sarah Adams]

So I don't know how many labs there are total. And not every lab has a chemical in it that one does. Some labs are just to make like a suicide vest or IEDs, but unfortunately some of the bombs do have chemical components. One is just the fact that some of them are using chemicals as the detonator so they're binary. So, you know, like a glow stick. So there's a chemical in the vest and there's a chemical in a syringe. For example, you insert the syringe, the two chemicals mix together, it starts the detonation. So some bombs start that way. The best example is the aviation plot bombs. And then unfortunately, al Qaeda is also saying they put a caustic chemical in some of these bombs. So like, let's say they set it off on a subway. So if you don't die from the explosion, you will die from whatever this caustic chemical is. Is if you don't get airflow quick enough.

[Sean Ryan]

Wow.

[Sarah Adams]

And that's why we don't want to alarm people, because when you start talking chemicals, that's frightening. People very scared.

[Sean Ryan]

Also genius. I mean, unfortunately, I mean, to just have that kind of contingen. Contingency plan for the people that. That are just victims and not. Not dead victims, not kia.

[Sarah Adams]

I mean, and remember now it's then a hazmat situation, so law enforcement can't immediately respond. Most. Most cities don't even really have any kind of hazmat response. So now you delay the entire emergency response too, which is also very smart.

[Sean Ryan]

What are you doing in the city still? Are you nuts?

[Sarah Adams]

I don't really live in a city.

[Sean Ryan]

Okay. I mean, I've never been.

[Sarah Adams]

Kind of knows where I live, so it doesn't really matter what house I'm in.

[Sean Ryan]

I would move if I was you, but man. Have you been tracking this Epstein stuff?

[Sarah Adams]

I mean, I've been reading, you know, as people put out. I haven't been going into the mock up. Did you see there's a whole mock up? Gmail is genius.

[Sean Ryan]

What?

[Sarah Adams]

So someone made this website. It's like jmail.com and you can sign in like you're in his account and you can scroll through the emails as they're dated, go through the photos. It's all an exact copy.

[Sean Ryan]

Are you sure?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. So you can search in the search bar like you're searching your email. So you can type like the name you're looking for and it'll pull the emails? Yeah. So it's a whole. Whole exact copy of it. It's really interesting.

[Sean Ryan]

What is this? Where is this?

[Sarah Adams]

It's called JMail.

[Sean Ryan]

JMail.

[Sarah Adams]

And it's just this copy of Epstein's Gmail. Holy, dude, People are really creative.

[Sean Ryan]

Now some of the stuff you've seen in there. What are you seeing? I've seen a lot.

[Sarah Adams]

I know. I mean, I've Seen a lot. The one issue, as you know, as people who collect intelligence, not everything you're going to see is true. There's tips, obviously people flagging me on some of terrorism stuff. Like he put out one and it says Turkey is supporting Al Nusra front. That was 2013, we knew that in 2012. So he's saying real factual things in a lot of cases that are in the public at the time. But a lot of people are thinking, oh, he's given up all these secrets and it's like guys, he's rambling on to every single person about world events and so. But then they think he's a decision maker on those world events. So I think that's been a discrepancy. We've seen another one in the same email. He brings up ISIS and how the US kind of didn't do anything against ISIS when they went after. Remember in Palermo when they went and ISIS did and they started destroying all the antiquities and remember they, there was one of these famous archeologists and they tortured him to death because they had hidden some of them and he refused to give up the location. So anyway, it was horrible, big news. US never went in and did anything. So he brought up how they didn't then. But then there's no context. In 2013 we had no ISIS strategy. We all know this. Remember Obama told the CIA, I don't want to hear about isis. So when CIA would send their presidential daily briefs to Obama, like they could not include anything on isis. So people forget what was happening in real time. So now they're like, oh, us was working with isis? Like, no, we just had no strategy because the President didn't give a damn about him. So there are a lot of things I think missing in context. I think the thing that matters most though is they have plenty of evidence that he trafficked shoulder.

[Sean Ryan]

I mean, I think. What do you, I mean what do you make of this though, that feel? I mean it's so frustrating when I, when it dropped and I mean I felt like I was in an algorithm jail because it was every, still is every single post coming through there, it's this person was eating babies and this person was raping kids and this person caught an STD and gave it to his wife and wanted some magic antibiotic to slipper, but she should go back.

[Sarah Adams]

Again, she should get more money for her divorce. Yeah, no shit. I'm serious.

[Sean Ryan]

I mean, what do you make of that? Like, so I've asked you ever since, ever since you started coming on the Show, I've been asking you, what do you think about these Epstein files? And I think it gets into. I think it gets into why we were maybe in the Middle East. Some, some of the stuff with Iran that's going on. I mean, it's looking more and more. I. I don't even know what to call it other than fucking blackmail. Do you. Does it make you question any of the stuff that you've been told or that you were diving into about when you're hard. I fucking hate Iran too. I hate him too. I don't think we should be interfering right now. But because, because of all this shit. I mean, does that, does this make you think any different about Middle east policy and what's going on over there and who's really pulling all the strings?

[Sarah Adams]

Well, if you read Epstein's files, the person pulling the strings is Cutter. I mean, Cutter's rough is 2,000 times in it. So I think people are choosing the ones they want to read and highlighting those, if that makes sense, instead of understanding. So Cutter is in control of the Middle East. Right? That's the point.

[Sean Ryan]

So hold on, hold on. What does it say? What is, what is, what does it say?

[Sarah Adams]

Well, it's like one of the main princes was really close to Epstein. But the thing is, people in the.

[Sean Ryan]

So was the former Prime Minister of fucking Israel.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, that's the thing. So the problem with this that people are not understanding is unfortunately the elites are extremely perverted. So I've known this for a long time, so none of this is surprising to me. Like, you stay away from the elites because they are not good people. They are in the positions that you're in because they're corrupt. They commit these crimes. They're involved in child trafficking, They've evolved in corruption. Like I have always viewed these people this way, if that makes sense. So to me, this is that universe. So for them to act like, oh, Jeffrey Epstein is like blackmailing them all and controlling them. These people do this every day of their life. Sean, you didn't need Jeffrey Epstein to like lure them in to sleep with a 12 year old. They're doing it in other locations too. Now that gets ignored completely. Completely. They're not just doing it on Jeffrey Epstein's eye.

[Sean Ryan]

I would not disagree with you on that.

[Sarah Adams]

They're doing it in the Middle east, they're doing it in Thailand.

[Sean Ryan]

That doesn't mean they're on camera. We're on the other places that they go. They're all on fucking camera here.

[Sarah Adams]

I just think that, I think it's way more common, unfortunately, than people realize. And I don't actually think he was doing it purely to blackmail him. I think he was doing for influence, money, relationships. Like a lot of these people are his friends, Sean. And so I think everybody's calling it an intelligence operation. None of these documents show that at all. First off, no. Have you seen proof that he is an asset for an entire operation?

[Sean Ryan]

I have not seen 100% people's assumptions even.

[Sarah Adams]

There's a picture he's in this room, and there's all these crates that say CIA. And people say, oh, it proves he's in CIA. That's not a room of CIAs. That's a room. If you work for a company and you're making clothing, you can only make certain clothes to send to the United States and New York markets. And you mark them CIA. He's literally in a clothing factory. And those are the bins with the clothing approved to sell to the US Government, like certified industrial standards or whatever it's called. But because they say CIA is approved. Look, he's in a CIA office, and CIA is marked all over. It's like, that's not a CIA location. So the problem is people are reading little pieces, and then they're making assumptions and assessments without the totality of circumstances. And remember, Trump said this was his concern with the Epstein files. Because think about this. One whole thing is this giant spreadsheet. I don't know if you saw this. And the spreadsheet was of. You could call into this tip line and give tips on Epstein. And that's the one where they're cutting off feet. Now, when I was on the Benghazi committee, they would let me go through that spreadsheet because I didn't have to answer the calls. But they say, or look at it, you worked in Benghazi. And I would say 90% of the people that called into our Benghazi tip line when I was on the committee were crazy lunatics. And nothing they said was true. Now you have this entire spreadsheet there, and then people assume everything in there is true. So we have to be a little careful with that now. 100%. Jeffrey Epstein trafficked children, raped them, unfortunately, with some of these contacts, these people. There's people in his contacts who run organizations who take care of orphan children. They protect children without parents. I mean, it sounds like some of those children were coming from those locations, which is a problem, because he's targeting children without means. So that's why everyone is like, oh, well, why do all these women not come forward where years ago, they had to sign NDAs. They had to sign NDAs because they had no money to get the kind of lawyers you need to go up against the elite. So they take what, hundred K? That shuts them up. And that's why you victimize poor people. Because they have no platform to ever come after you.

[Sean Ryan]

I didn't even know about the NDAs. We just did this thing with this Christian camp, Canacook. Have you heard about this?

[Sarah Adams]

I mean, I heard your show covered it.

[Sean Ryan]

Same thing. Settlement. NDAs can never talk about the sexual abuse ever again.

[Sarah Adams]

Mm.

[Sean Ryan]

They're trying to. They sent me a cease and desist. They wanna sue me. They want a public apology. I said, sorry. I don't. I. I don't negotiate with pedophiles.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, yeah, obviously. But why do we have a law system that someone can sign a paper from when they were a kid saying something didn't happen, and when they're 40 years old, they can't do anything about it? When you're young, you don't understand the legal system or any of you don't understand anything.

[Sean Ryan]

Nobody understands the legal system.

[Sarah Adams]

You don't find me anything. So. So, yeah, so I find that very, very frustrating. But that's what a lot of these Epstein victims are stuck under. That's why people were hoping Congress were gonna read the list of people who did harm against them on the floor. Because Congress doesn't fall under any of those rules. They can actually do that, but none of these women can, who sign these NDAs. They'll throw these law firms after them.

[Sean Ryan]

So let me ask you this back to the Epstein stuff, because I love. I love this about you, and I hate this about you. You only go off fact. You don't look any. You don't look at any context. But I get it from what you used to do. But, I mean, how would your opinion. Let's say, hypothetically, it comes out that Epstein was a Mossad agent. I think that that fucking dude was a Mossad agent. What? Would that change your opinion about Middle east policy?

[Sarah Adams]

I mean, it would, but I haven't seen anything that he's a Mossad agent. And at the end of the day, I. Everything I've seen is what every one of these people do. I know it sounds really horrible. Remember, I have met these world leaders. They're disgusting human beings. I know. It's really horrible to say.

[Sean Ryan]

I mean, you're right.

[Sarah Adams]

You don't exactly have to blackmail them. They do these things publicly. They have these sex parties publicly. They bring children in all the time to the Middle East. I don't know why people act like you needed Jeffrey Epstein. There's. There's girls on planes right now going to Saudi Arabia, you know, who are teenagers. So I just. I do think people think he's in the control of a universe when he's 1% of a gigantic universe. And that's our problem, because we're letting these people rule us. We're voting them into power, and they are not like us. And we have to get people to understand there's elites and there's us. And you can't just say, oh, this one elite's different than the rest, and they're gonna save us. No, I'm sorry. Like, you have to push them out in some way because they will never align with our values, ever.

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah, man, it's. It's so bad. I wonder if we even have a country anymore. But, you know, it's so corrupt. It's.

[Sarah Adams]

But this is just one angle of the corruption too, you know? I mean, there's thousands of angles, sadly. I mean, they harm people in so many ways all over the world.

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah, man, let's get to. Let's get to what we're. What we're here for today. Sarah Adams, former CIA targeting officer with years on the front lines of counterterrorism, known by your call sign, Superbad, former senior Advisor to the U.S. house Select Committee on Benghazi, co author of Benghazi, Know Thy Enemy, where you and your team identified the Masterminds behind the 2012 attacks on our embassy, and now host of the Watch Floor. The very first. The very first podcast to be in the Vigilance Elite Network. Congratulations.

[Sarah Adams]

Thank you.

[Sean Ryan]

Got you a little something.

[Sarah Adams]

What's this?

[Sean Ryan]

Got you a little something.

[Sarah Adams]

Whoa. Fancy. Oh, look at that.

[Sean Ryan]

100,000 subscribers.

[Sarah Adams]

They made these type of things in one week. Prepared to be in this industry. But it looks great.

[Sean Ryan]

Congratulations.

[Sarah Adams]

The first sign for my studio.

[Sean Ryan]

Dude, you've been killing it.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. You're my boss now. So does that change like this interview?

[Sean Ryan]

I'm not your boss.

[Sarah Adams]

No, no, this. Actually, now that I'm thinking about. This is a little uncomfortable.

[Sean Ryan]

You're a woman that cannot be ruled.

[Sarah Adams]

There's a power role in your position over there today. Yeah, like I can't mess up this interview. This is very nice. Thank you.

[Sean Ryan]

We are honored to have you in the network. And you're. You are killing it. I knew you would. Your information is just out of this world. It's. It's it's, it's awesome. But so, you know, we got a Patreon account and.

[Sarah Adams]

And now I'm in it, so I see.

[Sean Ryan]

That's right.

[Sarah Adams]

I just let everyone else know that too.

[Sean Ryan]

So this is from Roland, Morocco. A lot of intel coming out of Iran now is being provided by the National Council of Resistance in Iran. Can we trust the credibility of the intel due to the NCRI having their own agenda for Iran and the resistance?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, I mean, just for the viewers, he's referring to mec. And MEC really was designated for a long time a terrorist organization. It's not exactly aligned with if we want like democratic values in a place. But unfortunately, MEC has long lobbied in D.C. and they have put money in the pockets of a lot of our politicians. So as you can imagine, if you're talking about a free Iran or a post Ayatollah Iran, you're worried about MEC because they've made all these influences and you don't really want to watch the country handed a mec. You want the country to maybe go into some sort of democracy or even have the king involved and they put in together some sort of joint sharing government. So there are people who are concerned. When I was on the Hill, I got invited to. It was supposed to be an Iranian cultural event. It was like a holiday that day in Iran. And so I went to it because, you know, there's going to be food. Iranian food is really good. Right. Persians make good food. So I was like, okay, I'll go for the food. And the funny thing is I went in there and I was in there about 15 minutes and I realized, oh my gosh, this whole event is hosted by mec and it was up on the Hill. So they unfortunately are lobbyists, just like the Taliban are lobbyists. And so you go to watch these people because like he's saying, well, what about the information coming from them? Of course, then it's influenced. So he's making a very good point. You always have to understand where information comes from, so you're not just taking in the influenced information. Now the good thing with Iran, especially because of starlink, we are getting ground truth from regular people in Iran. And so we are in a good situation. We don't have to sit and wait around for this group to put out what's happening because of starlink. When someone can get to it and access it, we are getting, you know, what people are saying on the ground. So that's very, very good.

[Sean Ryan]

Interesting. How's our buddy Joe Kent doing?

[Sarah Adams]

I mean, I think Joe's doing a really good job. My argument always with Joe Kent is, why do you take someone with his experience and put him in charge of an analytic organization? I actually would like to see Joe Kent in charge of our whole counterterrorism policy, because, you know, who is Sebastian Gorka?

[Sean Ryan]

Our buddy Sebastian Gorka.

[Sarah Adams]

No. Like, you have Joe Kent. Why would you take a guy who never really worked terror and put him in the job when you have a Joe Kent? So that.

[Sean Ryan]

Here's why. You want to know why? Because Joe Kent has a fucking mind of his own.

[Sarah Adams]

I know.

[Sean Ryan]

That's why he's not. He cannot be controlled. He's true to himself, and that's why the fuck he's not in charge of all of it. I can't say the other for the other guy.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. And so I find it frustrating because someone like him could be a lot more effective and they have him in charge of nctc, so maybe we'll get lucky and they'll expand his role, because I do think he could really go and kick some ass.

[Sean Ryan]

I know, man. I know. I know. I talk to him still, but I'm not gonna say anything but.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, yeah, we don't.

[Sean Ryan]

I know. You do, too.

[Sarah Adams]

We don't want to throw around people's gossip, but the thing is, as you know, I've always shared information on this homeland plot all across the government. But as you know, different pieces of the government action. Very different. Some do nothing, some give you a hard time about it, some are supportive. And so it's very, very frustrating.

[Sean Ryan]

Really? Who's supportive? Well, to be honest, I haven't found that department yet.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, to be honest, I feel the DNI has been somewhat supportive. I've actually felt Customs and Border Protection has been very supportive, and ATF has actually been supportive.

[Sean Ryan]

Wow.

[Sarah Adams]

Who hasn't been supportive, though? It's FBI. Who? FBI is in charge of finding these terrorists on US soil. So FBI is the biggest hurdle to stopping the US Homeland plot, which is crazy, because they should be the biggest ally to stopping the plot.

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah. I mean, who. Yeah, It's.

[Sarah Adams]

It's the craziest thing I've ever seen.

[Sean Ryan]

It's the FBI, dude.

[Sarah Adams]

I know, but it's like, you really don't want to stop a massive terrorist plot. You really just want to find these dinky dumbasses on the Internet and say, we caught a guy who's inspired. Like, how do you have such little respect in your job that you only go for cannon fodder?

[Sean Ryan]

Everybody's Just looking for a pat on the back.

[Sarah Adams]

I know. It's so cute.

[Sean Ryan]

Nobody really gives a fuck.

[Sarah Adams]

They should put me in charge of that organization.

[Sean Ryan]

They should.

[Sarah Adams]

It would be ended in a week.

[Sean Ryan]

They should. Good. Then we only have a week of not watching the watch for.

[Sarah Adams]

So I could come in and live stream while I fight people.

[Sean Ryan]

All right, let's move. So funding the Taliban.

[Sarah Adams]

Yes. Still happening.

[Sean Ryan]

Still happening. We're. We're. We're. You know what I'm getting tired of is watching all these politicians use it and bat it around on their fucking ex account. It's just. And you know what? I'm fucking sick of it. It's just like. Just shut up and get it done. How about do that?

[Sarah Adams]

In my contact with me, it took.

[Sean Ryan]

What, 36 fucking hours to withdraw completely from Afghanistan, leaving hundreds of millions of dollars of equipment, countless lives, fucking killed, our allies being executed, having their heads chopped off, their balls chopped off. Fucking murdered in front of their wife and kids, and then they murdered their wife and kids. That took 36 hours to make this decision. We're funding those people. We've been trying to get this pushed through for what, two years now? Two years. And it's still just getting batted around on X. Hey, let's. Let's talk about it. Let's bring it up. Let's make it a fucking campaign thing. Let's not do anything about it. I'm fucking sick of this shit, man.

[Sarah Adams]

What's.

[Sean Ryan]

What is. How. How the fuck does it take two years to make a. To make a decision to keep. To quit funding the Taliban? 40 to 80. 87, maybe more now. 87 million a week. A week?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. I mean, there's multiple hiccups in this, and it's so frustrating. So first off, the biggest chunk, the counterterrorism dollars, which is the 47, because the 40 is humanitarian. So the 47 million is in the do deal. The problem with the Doha deal is that was a deal brokered by Mike Pompeo and the last Trump administration. So obviously the administration does not want to end the deal because they don't want to make it look like they messed up, even though it's a horrible deal and it should be canceled immediately. So that 40.

[Sean Ryan]

That's what it is. It's ego.

[Sarah Adams]

So ego.

[Sean Ryan]

So we're paying the fucking Taliban.

[Sarah Adams]

Yes.

[Sean Ryan]

Damn near $100 million a week because somebody doesn't want to hurt their fucking ego and admit that they made a mistake.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. The other issue is they're basically trying to get us not to talk about it. So, like, in the summer, Marco Rubio literally told Congress they stopped the money. Which wasn't true.

[Sean Ryan]

That wasn't true?

[Sarah Adams]

No, of course it wasn't true.

[Sean Ryan]

He lied.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, it gets better. So then he goes and tells. I don't know if you saw this a month or two ago, Anna Polina Luna, who's my congresswoman, that the money stopped and he ended it. She goes out and gives, like, a press conference. So then I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. So I actually got really pissed because she's like, microbubio said we stopped the money. So I was like, screw it. So I actually put my own resources into collecting the next payment. And that's how I got the January 12th payment that we dropped off in the Doha office. 87 million cash. But I invested my own funds into collecting that payment to prove that was a lie. But can you imagine? Americans are having to go overseas and collect intelligence to prove our government's lying to the American people.

[Sean Ryan]

How did you. Hold on. How did you find that info?

[Sarah Adams]

I collected it myself.

[Sean Ryan]

How?

[Sarah Adams]

In the Doha Taliban office. So, yeah. So good luck sending the next payment, America. Don't tell Americans you've stopped, because I'm collecting the next payment, too. And I'm almost to the point.

[Sean Ryan]

I think there's actually.

[Sarah Adams]

Seriously. I'm getting really pissed off because what they do is the money goes there, and then it goes out in multiple ways.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, I'm being so.

[Sarah Adams]

You can basically hijack it and steal it. So I'm at. To the point, I'm like, I might just steal 20 million for fun.

[Sean Ryan]

I think that this whole we're not paying our taxes movement is getting bigger and bigger and bigger by the day. I mean, I saw, like, the Somali stuff. You've seen that. Of course, the Taliban funded pretty much all of Somalia and the terrorist organizations that are there.

[Sarah Adams]

Remember, that's just our domestic programs that go to people in America. But remember, we also fund the Somali government, so you're only seeing one pot. Even when we talk about the programs here and the scams here, we're also just giving billions to a failed state of Somalia, and some of that money goes to Al Shabaab as well. So the other thing people forget, too, is there's not just one pocket. So let's talk about the Taliban for a minute. So we talk about. And legend talks about humanitarian dollars, 40 million. Then, of course, I told you the 47 million in counterterrorism dollars. We fund the Taliban through the U.N. on top of that, through the World bank through IOM, which is migration, World Food Program. You know, the World Food Program, as I said, brings all the food to Al Qaeda's terrorist camps. So we fund this haliband in multiple additional buckets in addition to the 87 million a week. Have to go find every bucket and stop the money. To every bucket. I mean, this is going to take years to. To end this money. It's insane.

[Sean Ryan]

This is. Meanwhile, we got people starving on the streets here. Our cities are wasteland. It's just. I just. What happened, man?

[Sarah Adams]

Corruption.

[Sean Ryan]

What happened?

[Sarah Adams]

We put the worst people in our government and they stayed there.

[Sean Ryan]

So where are we with this Taliban funding thing? I know it's. It's what, stuck in the Senate or what, they voted to vote on it or something?

[Sarah Adams]

I can't even.

[Sean Ryan]

It's just.

[Sarah Adams]

I know the fuck is this Congress is a nightmare. So what it was, it was sitting in a committee in the Senate and they had to prove it to go to the floor. So they finally moved it out of that committee and now it's going to go to the floor. So we're still waiting then on a floor, full Senate vote.

[Sean Ryan]

Who's the one senator that's against this? So I can't remember.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, it wasn't exactly. There was a couple senators. The issue was a staff member, and his name is Tom West. So a lot of people know Tom west from doing the withdrawal because at the time, he was basically like the US Government's official representative to the Taliban. Obviously, the new administration came in and Tulsi Gabbard pulled his security clearance because he's a snake. He's a Taliban lobbyist. So she's like, you don't need a classified clearance. So then he got picked up by this committee in the Senate, and he now works on the Hill because that's how our system works. And so he's a huge lobbyist. His wife is actually in a Taliban family. So this is corruption, enriching themselves, all that type of thing. So he's been the huge hiccup in the Senate, but there is also some sort of hiccup, and we don't know who it is in the White House who's supportive of the Taliban, because remember.

[Sean Ryan]

Gee, I wonder who that could be.

[Sarah Adams]

So remember, we have another Doha deal was done when exactly Doha deal's a problem. But remember, besides the Doha deal, what's the other big problem?

[Sean Ryan]

Who could be in the White House that has a huge ego that refuses to admit they're wrong about shit? I fucking wonder.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, that's the other problem, though. We have Americans held by the Taliban. Think about it. Think about the last year. We've heard a lot about saving hostages in Gaza. Even when no Americans were left, we had to save, obviously, hostages in Venezuela. When have you heard the administration talk about our Americans in Afghanistan this whole last year? When One, one discussion.

[Sean Ryan]

Never.

[Sarah Adams]

It's insanity. That's a problem because someone in the White House is supportive in some way of the Taliban. Now, I don't know if you saw, but in September 5th, Trump actually signed an executive order, and it was something like state sponsor of wrongful persons. Did you see this? So anyway, it was an executive order to put different pressures on countries holding Americans. It would be like cut off the money you're sending to them, block people with US Passports, traveling there, et cetera. So they have this law in the books and they're not using against the Taliban. Well, why wouldn't you be using against the Taliban? It was written to get Americans out of wrongful custody. We have two Americans alive in Taliban custody, and then we have a third that likely is dead, and we need his body returned. So you have a law in place, and you can use it in Gaza, you can use it in Venezuela, but you can't use it in Afghanistan. So that's super, super frustrating.

[Sean Ryan]

Who are they?

[Sarah Adams]

So we have obviously Mahmoud Shah Habibi, who I've told you about, the Al Qaeda is charging him with the death of Its last leader, Dr. Ayman Al Zawahiri. So he's being tortured and all that type of stuff. And then we have Dennis Cole. He's an older American. So Dennis Cole's been in custody literally the last year. Nobody's hardly said anything about it. Just last month, his family, I think, started talking about it. But Talban, I don't even know if they've charged him with anything. So they clearly have no working court system. And then unfortunately, the last person's Paul Overby, and he, I don't know if you know, he was a writer, and he actually wrote about the first Afghan War. So he put out a book. I think it was like Holy blood in the 90s. And he wrote about the Soviet Afghan war. Well, he was back over there. This is a long time ago now. He's been custody or he's deceased for 11 years. So he went back over to do research for his book. He left Afghanistan, traveling to Waziristan to interview Siraj Shaddin Haqqani, who helped capture Mahmoud Shah Habibi. And then he went missing. So they thought originally he was dead. And then. Do you remember that jerk David Rodey?

[Sean Ryan]

No.

[Sarah Adams]

So there was this guy, I swear he purposely got captured by the Haqqani. So American David Rody. And he was captured and then all this stuff went on. These people paid off a bunch of people. And he gets released. So he gets released. Actually, Boone was on the team that picked him up when he got released by the Haqqani. So people think he was rescued. He wasn't. He was released for a ton of money. So anyway, when he comes out, he says, I saw Paul in custody. So that was about 2019. But there are a lot of people, he's in his 80s now, Paul, so a lot of people think he's deceased. So the US government wants like his remains in his case. So we know two are alive for sure. But again, no American knows any of these names, except maybe Habibi, because I've said it a couple times. But it's very, very frustrating that it's like no one cares. The other part is, so Habibi luckily has a $5 million bounty. There was a $5 million bounty to get Paul. Dennis, there's zero bounty. How do you not have a 5 million dollar bounty to return him if you have a 5 million dollar bounty for the other two? Our hostage diplomacy is one of the craziest things you've ever seen. There's like no plan. It's all over the place. Terrorists get anything they want.

[Sean Ryan]

How can nobody be talking about the fact that Taliban is holding American hostages while we pay them. Yes, $87 million a week.

[Sarah Adams]

And we have a law that can stop the money today, the one passed in September. If they're holding it American and the.

[Sean Ryan]

White House is interfering with this too.

[Sarah Adams]

Yes, they're allowing this to continue with the Taliban. This weakness towards the Taliban is like one of the most insane things I've ever seen. And remember, one of these Americans is literally being tortured. Tortured. Like they've had to bring him to the hospital to revive him, to continue his torture.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy.

[Sarah Adams]

I mean, it's one of the most frustrating things. And then even a lot of people in the government are like, we don't know if he's still alive. Dude's still alive, but he's barely hanging on because you guys won't fucking make a deal to get him released.

[Sean Ryan]

I hope you do an episode on this.

[Sarah Adams]

It's super frustrating. It's just, I mean, the whole hostage diplomacy, you really should bring some people in, some of these families or some people go do the negotiations. It is an entire train wreck. And we knew this years ago. Do you remember Kayla Mueller? So she was the one the head of ISIS was holding her, right? I think it was Big Daddy. And she was unfortunately probably his sex slave or whatever. And the State Department told the family, don't say she's kidnapped. And they waited forever, and then they made all this stuff and she ended up dying, right? And then the family came out after. And so all the crazy stuff that went wrong, Bob Levinson's another great example who died in Iranian custody. You know, they even passed the law because that went so bad on how so hostage diplomacy is just insane. Like, we do not do this properly. And remember, these are Americans that we're trying to save in these places.

[Sean Ryan]

Dude, I just. I just.

[Sarah Adams]

You know, when we gave those billions to Iran, we literally didn't make a contingent on Bob Levinson, who was alive then being released. So we're handing this cash to all these people as they hold Americans.

[Sean Ryan]

Let's move on. Let's move on to. You did a video on the most dangerous influencers. I didn't get to watch that one yet. What is. But I know my name wasn't on the list.

[Sarah Adams]

No, no, no, no. These are really dumb people. Sean. Sean. So these are the influencers.

[Sean Ryan]

Like, again, my name wasn't on the list.

[Sarah Adams]

They must not have a lot of followers to be the ones. So. So these are the ones Taliban actually reaches out to and says, will you come to Afghanistan and film to help promote us? And so then the Taliban brings them into the country, like the Haqqani networks. Bajri 313 escorts them around. And then they set up all these little sites. They set up like this fake little photo station for them. And one, they set up a little coffee shop. They bring empty everyone out of the mosque and bring them in, even though women can't go in the mosque. And so they. They film this fake version of Afghanistan and then these influencers put out. Oh, it's so nice there. It's so safe. It's like, please don't tell your dumb followers Afghanistan is safe. I do not want to go rescue more Americans who are being tortured in Afghanistan who your government does not care about getting released.

[Sean Ryan]

This is happening everywhere. China's doing this too.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, it's very smart because, I mean, tourism's super important. I don't know if you just saw in Venezuela this week, the new leader, she was his deputy put out an announcement. Hey, I made this new head of tourism and it's like a young influencer. So these countries know we need these people to kind of paint us in a different picture, get the younger generations to look at us in a different way. It's a really good influence campaign. Not just done by terrorists, done by nation states.

[Sean Ryan]

You see all the messaging. Is all the messaging just cookie cutter?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. And it's all exactly the same positive. You're almost giving, like, talking points. And then at least in Afghanistan, there's a lot of things you can't film. You can't say. You can't take pictures of tons of restrictions, man. I mean, just like if you were gonna go to China. Same thing.

[Sean Ryan]

Propaganda, man.

[Sarah Adams]

Yep.

[Sean Ryan]

Wow, wow, wow. Let's take a quick break.

[Sarah Adams]

Okay.

[Sean Ryan]

If you listen to this show, you know, I care about performance and what goes into my body. We should have that same standard for our dogs.

[Sarah Adams]

Hey, guys, Sarah Adams here. Tune in Tuesday, February 17th, right here live on Patreon at 2 Central. We'll be discussing my latest visit to the Sean Ryan show as well as this week's intel brief on IRGC's Unit 841 of their covert action arms. We'll host a Q A at the end, so see you then.

[Sean Ryan]

All right, Sarah, we're kind of talking about it a little bit at the beginning, but what is the update on the Homeland plot?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, so should I just give a quick overview of the plot? Because I think that'd be helpful. So the first thing is the objectives. So the objectives are very simple. They're viewed a little more positively by Al Qaeda. So don't exactly think revenge. So the first objective is of course.

[Sean Ryan]

What do you mean they're viewed positively?

[Sarah Adams]

I'll explain it to you. Because we view it as revenge, right? You would say this is revenge plot, but I want to explain how they're framing it. So they say part of it is to honor Osama Bin Laden. To us we'd say that's in revenge. But to their fighters, they're saying, hey, you're going to carry this out in his honor. See how they make that positive. Another thing is we're going to honor all the Muslims who were detained over the last 20 years in counterterrorism operations by like the US military or the CIA or the FBI. So you're going to honor those people. And when you're training, they tell you they were unjustly detained because they say, look, I'm famous, I'm a senior Al Qaeda commander, I wasn't in prison. But they picked these guys, 30 and 40 year old random people in America and throw them in prison. And that's what they're playing with these recruits. It's very, very smart. They aren't detained. The last piece is all these fighters and mujahideen came before you. Unfortunately, things went wrong and not all their plots came to fruition like just bad things. Right? All is well at the time. You need to honor them by bringing their past failures to success. Right now it's on you and on your generation, right, to finish this. So it's very, very, very smart. So that's how they labeled out their objectives. Well, think about how scary the last one can be. You're going to bring all failed plots to fruition. So the biggest plot and the one most concerning in that is the aviation plot. So 30 years ago there is this plot called Bojinka. Have you ever heard of it? So it's fine. You remember Ramzi Yousef from the first World Trade Center?

[Sean Ryan]

Okay, okay.

[Sarah Adams]

So before that. So Ramsey was involved in this plot. It was out of South Asia and what it was going to be is the downing of 12 airliners going trans Pacific to the United States. Well, what happened? Two weeks before the attack kicked off, Ramsey had an electrical fire in his apartment. Law enforcement showed up, found all the plans and thwarted it. Also when they raided the apartment, they realized, oh my gosh, they did a test run and they blew up a bomb on the plane and, and it only luckily at the time killed the bomber and the pilot was able to safely land it, which is amazing. So anyway, so That's a failed plot, okay? So that's one of the plots now they want to bring to fruition. So it's 12 airliners over the United States, but it's even more than that. So they also are trying to pull in people from the failed plots so they can have their success. So they took the bomb maker. He worked on the coal bomb. He worked on the bomb for Bojinka. And he actually trained a couple nine, 11 hijackers. His name is Yazid Sufat. And Jade might have brought him up because he's running the CBRN program in Afghanistan. Anyway, they brought Yazid Sufat in and said, you can make the bomb for this plot because he made the bomb for Virginka 30 years ago. So they aren't. So they're bringing in all these old historic people to support this plot. It's very, very interesting. Another one I want to bring up. Super. That they brought in. You remember the attack on us, you know, at Chapman Coast Base? Okay, so remember the CIA was the cake bombing? What?

[Sean Ryan]

The cake bombing. Which. Which attack?

[Sarah Adams]

The coast attack. We lost, obviously, the two GRS officers and then the five staff.

[Sean Ryan]

So it gets attacked all the time.

[Sarah Adams]

I know, sorry. The big one, the big CIA attack with the Jordanian. So the Jordanian was originally supposed to meet the CIA in Peshawar. Remember he changed the location to coast. Now he was in Pakistan. The terrorists that moved him from Pakistan in Miram Shah over to coast is the terrorist who tested the bombs for the homeland plot. And guess where they tested the bombs for the current homeland plot?

[Sean Ryan]

Ghost.

[Sarah Adams]

Yep. Camp Chapman.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy.

[Sarah Adams]

So the. The bombs work? They tested my cat Chapman. And the crazy part is right now, Cat Camp Chapman is literally a suicide bomber training course. They train 3,500 terrorists at a time to be suicide bombers in external operations. They don't stay in Afghanistan.

[Sean Ryan]

The same camp that you and I.

[Sarah Adams]

Were at is now a suicide bomber training camp, and so is Salerno. So the crazy part is Salerno was.

[Sean Ryan]

When I was there. They had already taken that.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. So the crazy part is they're training suicide bombers in that camp. And then those suicide bombers are leaving Afghanistan to go to all of our countries. And our government knows the exact location of this compound, right? We know there's imagery of it. We used to work in it. It's our compound and they're doing nothing.

[Sean Ryan]

How is this even real?

[Sarah Adams]

It's the craziest thing. So anyway, so the biggest piece of the plot, as you can imagine, is the aviation piece. Now, remember how I told you they want to honor the people who are detained. So they want to strike, like the CIA, the FBI, and the DOD in some manner. And the way it sounds like they're planning to do this is a siege on D.C. like Mumbai. That's why Scott Mann says, hey, law enforcement study Mumbai. Right. Because then you can learn how that's done. So that's another piece of the plot. The last piece of the plot's really interesting. So Al Qaeda's running those pieces. So we have Cyphil Oddle, who's the mastermind. He's the one that did the 33 strategies that you guys talked about in your show previously. And then we have Al Qaeda's military commission. Okay, so that's one piece. The other piece of the plot is run by ISIS's military commission, and that's in the towns where we live, work, and play. And they really have a strong focus on veteran communities. And the whole purpose of this piece of the plot is to take and make your town right. You served in the military, so they want to make you feel in your hometown how these terrorists feel that US Soldiers made their families feel in Syria and Iraq and Afghanistan. So this is very personal. This is like the way people live, work, and play. You know, kind of like supermarkets, train stations, et cetera. And the crazy part is they gave that to ISIS because, remember, ISIS is mass casualty, so that'll be probably the deadliest piece besides the aviation piece. So it's crazy. So as you can imagine, because it's a half Al Qaeda, half ISIS plot, FBI is like, Al Qaeda and ISIS would never work together. And they literally go tell law enforcement the plot's not real because the two would never work together, even though the two work together for years in Libya, they work together in Syria. Yeah, they just won't get over old assessments and do anything about it.

[Sean Ryan]

Sebastian Gorka isn't tracking this stuff.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, well, Sebastian Gorka is in Karjakano Terrorism. So he is going to be the guy that. There you. He's gonna be the fall guy. Him and Kosh Patel. How could they not be? They've done nothing to stop this plot.

[Sean Ryan]

How about these bolos you put out?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. So as you can imagine, as we look into the plot, we're finding terrorists who deployed here for the plot. So we have given. I'm not gonna give the exact number. So the terrorists don't know how many I know, but it's well over a dozen. Okay. So we found well over a dozen of these terrorists, and true name, group affiliation, and then their Nationality, giving it to the US government. None of them picked up. So we decided to take two and put them up publicly. One is a Saudi and he came here and he's a commander for a piece of the plot. So how Al Qaeda did, it's very, very simple. You know how we had like 19 hijackers, it was 20, but one fell off. Well, they said 20 is a great number. So we're just going to make a number that are solely commanders. So think of it this way, it's different this time. So they had one boss, so now every one of them is a boss. So let's just say we take the 20 hijackers. 20 hijackers have now replacements. They're all now commanders and they all run teams under them. So this person's a commander and he runs a portion of the plot and he runs the teams under that portion. And there's a bunch of him, there's maybe like two dozen of these commanders on US soil. So that's his level. So the other one released is a Somali and he's very interesting. His father's super famous. His father's maybe number three or four of Al Shabaab. I mean his uncle, his uncle is so Fahd Khalaf, longtime friend of the bin Laden. So anyway, the bin Ladens chose this Somali to come be a part of the attack because he's second generation terrorism like him. So he is in charge of a bunch of these cells in the United States and he's in charge of. It doesn't matter if it's Al Qaeda guys, ISIS guys, HTS guys, Libyan terrorists, it doesn't matter. He runs a big portion of the cell structure and his cell structure is the one in Louisiana. And Shamsuddin Jaber, who did the New Orleans attack was inside one of his cells.

[Sean Ryan]

Hold on, hold on. Before you go, before you go on. So you mentioned Al Qaeda and ISIS before, but now Al Shabaab is also in the mix.

[Sarah Adams]

Yes. So I want to explain to you how a cell works now. So in the old days, if I told you there is a terrorist cell and I said five guys and Al Qaeda sent them, you would think it's a five man Al Qaeda terror cell. It's not that way anymore. They redid the cell structure. So now when I tell you this Al Shabaab guy runs a bunch of cells, let's talk about a five man cell he has. So he is a five man cell and it has a member of Ansar Asharia Benghazi who attacked us. I'm Telling you who's really in the cell. There's an HTS member, most of the Syria Al Qaeda group. There's an Islamic State, Khorasan branch member. Right. That's out of Afghanistan, even though he's not Afghan, he's Bangladeshi. And then there's an ISIS terrorist. So now the cells are mixed. And they're mixed because the US Government looks at Al Qaeda, they look at isis, they took HTS off the list. They're not even looking at them. And they're never going to find five guys from five different groups collaborating because it's against their assessment. I told you, FBI is literally going around and telling law enforcement they don't work together. And they made their cells that way because, like, people are so arrogant, they just won't view something different. They can't think, oh, the terrorists could evolve.

[Sean Ryan]

Of course they wouldn't change their tactics. Why would they do that?

[Sarah Adams]

I know, so it's really smart. But it's so hard to find them, Sean, because you have to look in this terrorist group, and then you have to look in this. I mean, I've been doing this a solid three years, and I haven't even found a fraction of these guys.

[Sean Ryan]

Well, I mean, I think it makes sense that we're not finding them, because I can't. Sorry, I can't remember if you said it or if Jane Doe said it. Our mutual friend. But, I mean, when we talked about how they're communicating and they're not using email, they're not using Cell, they're only using human corridor couriers. I mean, and they are unaware of each other with whoever's within the US So even if you. Even if you crack one of the cells, that cell has no knowledge of any of the other cells.

[Sarah Adams]

Exactly.

[Sean Ryan]

You could. You could torture them to. To the point of death, but they have no information to give you.

[Sarah Adams]

And it's more than that, Sean.

[Sean Ryan]

And so no wonder nobody knows they've gone completely dark.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. And it's even before that point. So if you and I go to Terrace training camp together, we go in there under alias. So I might be able to guess you're American because you do have that, you know, weird accent. But I know you as a completely different name. So if I'm being tortured, I'll never be able to give you a real name because I never knew it. So even the people they trained with, they can't identify. I mean, it's clean operatives. And then there's a ton of covert operations in this plot. Like, it's almost like Doctrine, because remember, the person running the plot, Sighful Otto, was special operations in the Egyptian military. People forget these things. Remember one of the leaders of isis, that people are lying. That is dead. Gulmur Kolamov, ran special operations in Tajikistan. So these people are bringing real military doctrine in. And I don't think a lot of people are watching these advancements, man.

[Sean Ryan]

Wow. Wow. What about the TSA stopping the screening for the bombs?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, well, so this is a problem. So if they would have never said anything, it might have been okay. But they basically said, hey, we're stop skiing, we're not scanning anymore for the shoe bomb. And then they started saying the locations and Al Qaeda, remember, the only problem with the shoe bomb is it got a little moisture in it and it didn't go off. So they fixed the problem really quick. But we jumped in the US Government and put really enhanced detailed screening in for shoes. So Al Qaeda's like, it's not worth it doing the shoe bomb. Right? That's what happened in the past. Well, like six months ago, DHS and Kristi Noman's like, we're not scanning for shoes anymore. That's. That was foolish. Well, Kaido's like, good, we're gonna put the shoe bomb back on the table. So they have prototypes right now of the new shoe bomb they're testing. So the shoe bomb is coming back because we are dumb enough to say we're not screening for it anymore. So they're going to make a visible bomb in a shoe and it's going to get on the airplane just fine because we have idiots who tell terrorists we decrease that screening.

[Sean Ryan]

Well, I'm just curious, what are they waiting for? Why wait?

[Sarah Adams]

Well, they're not waiting. So you have to look at it this way. It takes time to train everyone, right? It takes time to deploy everyone. And then when you deploy, you got to make your bombs, you got to do your pre attack surveillance. And then remember, they want to choose a time that we're at our weakest or not prepared. October 7th, they pushed an entire year. Those terrorists sat around waiting an entire year knowing, hey, we were supposed to do October 7, 2022. I also think a part of it is they want to test even the patience of the terrorists because they want to make sure you can sit there when they train them. They do say, hey, when we sent the guys to Nairobi, remember the attacks on the embassies got delayed nine months. And nobody talks about that in 1998 because the TNT showed up late. So even if they choose a Date, things happen. And we've had actually things happen to the homeland plot. So first off, one of the command, you know, I said there's these kind of dozen. Couple dozen commanders. Well, one of them, Faraj al Hamasi, it's crazy. So he's Libyan, okay? He has to leave Libya and go to Turkey and then wait in Turkey to deploy here to come and then lead his cells, okay? So he leaves Libya, he throws his passport away because he gets a fake Syrian passport to travel with. I don't know where he threw this passport away, but there's this do Gooder in Libya that finds driver's licenses and passports and literally takes the passport, puts it up on a Facebook page and says, hey, if you lost his passport, call me. I mean, that's an Al Qaeda terrorist passport sitting on a Facebook page, okay? Wide open to the world. So that's how I get his passport. So he goes to Turkey, and then do you remember when I was on the show and do you remember when I talked about Ziad Balam? He's like the number two most important terrorist in the Benghazi attacks. He was caught. So he was caught at the airport in Turkey. He got sent back to Libya, and then I was doing a whole campaign to get the US government to hold him. He got released, like, 10 days later. Well, when he got caught in Turkey, this guy Faraj, because I guess he's not the sharpest, is like, oh, my God, our whole network's getting picked up. Ziad wasn't doing the homeland plot. So he freaks out, and he's like, we're all gonna get wrapped up by the Turkish government. And he leaves and goes to Germany, okay? So now he's sitting in Germany, gosh, year and a half, waiting to find his pathway to come here to do the attack. And he's outside of, like, a sports bar, and some guy started, like, talking crap about soccer or something, and he stabs, like, five people. He's in prison. So the crazy part is, so he gets detained. He gets detained, as you can imagine, with his Syrian passport. So he's detained, literally as Mahmood Mock mood. I kid you not. This is how dumb the germans are. So Mach 1 Mach removed. And then, of course, he changed his date of birth. And so I reached out. I live in Florida, and we have a consulate for Germany in Miami. I reached out and said, guys, here's his passport. You have a Libyan in custody. You're running through your judicial system as a Syrian. Never got back to me. So he's literally in the German court system, a US Homeland attacker that knows key pieces of the plot. He was going to command a piece of the plot, and nobody's doing anything with him, but it helps. At least it messed up. You got to put a new guy in charge now. Also, some senior leaders got killed. Remember how I told you the ISIS military commission is running these hacks where we live, work, and play veteran communities is a good example. So he's dead. So in March of this year, he was in Iraq running the military commission. And his mom is a very famous terrorist. And we actually talked about her recently on the watch floor in, like, our ISIS women video. So his mom got harbored by Abu Muhammad Jelani, the head of Syria. Okay, so there's now a terrorist president in Syria. And he said, come live in Syria. Her name's Najma, and I'll take care of you and you'll be safe. So she moved into Syria and he's been harboring her. So her son Abdullah Maki said, okay, my mom's been in Syria for a few months. It's safe. I'm going to leave Iraq and go visit my mom. And as he was leaving Iraq, the US Bombed him and killed him. So he was running an entire piece of the homeland plot. He's dead. He wasn't killed for the homeland plot, but it helps us. Another really good example is remember how I told you there's all these terrorist groups making up cells? So one of the terrorist groups making up the cells, and you'll know this group is tricky. Taliban, Pakistan, ttp, the Pakistani Taliban. So how all these groups worked is just super simple. It's like the head of either the military commission or like their military chief who chose the attackers. Okay. Very simple in every group. Doesn't matter. So he was the head of TTP's military, so he chose the homeland attackers. Well, Pakistan killed him this fall in a strike. So he's gone. And then there's one more. So there's one more piece of the plot. There was the aviation in D.C. and all that stuff. There's the attacks where we live, work, and play. And then IRGC went to Al Qaeda and said, hey, the US has an authority to homeland plot. Can we just lump in President Trump's assassination into the entire plot? So now the assassination of Trump for the death of Qasem Soleimani is literally in Al Qaeda's homeland plot, but still run by irgc. So the individual running that I've talked about him on the show before, his name is Muhammad Kazemi. Well, Muhammad got bombed by Israel last summer because he was also one of the key masterminds of October 7th. So the good part is three very senior leaders are taken off the battlefield helping this plot, and then one local ground commander is taken off the battlefield. And there could be, you know, maybe a few got caught by immigration enforcement traveling here, you know, didn't get here. We do know a couple dozen have not gotten here yet for one reason or the other. Like they're not on US Soil yet. So there have luckily been hiccups. The hiccups are good. It lengthens the timeline. It gives terrorists more time to make mistakes, hopefully our law enforcement more time to prepare and get ahead of it. And hopefully people keep dying and it affects the plot. So, I mean, that's what we want. We don't want it to occur right away. We want it to keep getting pushed.

I know they have patience and I know they can be sophisticated. I think, I guess I just relate it back to when we were over there and it's like, oh, it's getting hit again. Oh, we're getting hit again. Oh, this is the third fucking time tonight we're getting hit, you know, and so I just, I just, I don't know. Crazy assumption of mine to think that they would be impatient wanting to attack us.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, I am going to explain a piece of that though, because it is really important. You're thinking first, I'm going to talk about one thing. So obviously there are dates, right? There's a dates for certain things. So they had to have all the pre attack surveillance, training, bomb making done by like the third week of December of 2025. So right now they are operationally capable to pull off an attack, if that makes sense because they've done every pre attack thing. But here is the part we don't really talk about publicly because I do think once the first major thing happens, the US will be America and we'll stop whatever happens. But what the plan is from the second generation of terrorists is that the waves never stop. So there's this big plot I told you about, but then in two or three months later they want to put another major attack in and keep doing it. And so when Joe Kent says there is 18,000 terrorists on U.S. soil.

[Sean Ryan]

Did you just say 18,000?

[Sarah Adams]

Yes.

[Sean Ryan]

Last time we talked we were thinking it was a thousand.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, well I've always thought it was about 8,000. But he actually testified recently that it's 18,000 known Islamist terrorists on US soil. So what? A lot of people are like, well, why haven't they attacked yet? Some of them are for those future waves.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy shit.

[Sarah Adams]

So Al Qaeda put a thousand in the first wave, as we know, but there's future waves. And there was a meeting ISIS actually had. So remember like the US was putting out a lot of propaganda Uganda, like we're going to get the worst of the worst and take off all these people out of the United States. So ISIS started freaking out and they had a meeting and they're like, we need to figure out how many actually terrorists we have in the United States that could get wrapped up in these, these operations. And they realized they had over 2500 ISIS members. That's just Syria and Iraq in the United States illegally. So that doesn't count anyone on a green card because they sent a lot through the programs. Just like the Afghanistan one is just as corrupt. They sent Iraqis through who were ISIS people who got recruited here, et cetera. So that's just one terrorist group. We also have to remember these numbers are massive. I mean, 19 did nine, 11. And Joe Kent says there's 18,000 and we have no mass campaign to wrap these people up and deport them. So they had that meeting to discuss the number. Do you know, since then there's been no concern by Al Qaeda or ISIS about the people being wrapped up. And they're still sending terrorists over the southern border. Just like two days ago, the White House put out the borders closed. Call me. The border is not closed. Al Qaeda's moving people in Nogales. They're moving people in San Diego. They're moving people over in Los Ebonos. Have you ever heard of the GOAT Initiative, Corey, who runs it? So it's really interesting and there's a lot of this along the border. It doesn't matter which one you're talking about. But there's all these Americans who go out and they collect these documents that get discarded. So he goes out and collects, like, passports. So we talk about, you know, the Pakistani ones or the Libyan ones or the Afghan ones. And I engage with him to see if they match up with any of the terrorists we found. And then they go. Just two weeks ago, they film people climbing over the border wall. So our government's telling the American public, hey, the border's closed. Well, the border's closed. Maybe if you're a police. Poor person from Latin America, the border's not closed. If you're part of a billion dollar terrorist organization who can just pay the Sinaloa cartel to bring you through a tunnel.

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah, I was just gonna say, I mean, we have no idea how many.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, they're working with Sinaloa, they're working with tda. And it's just like, it's super, super frustrating that our government's not seeing the totality of this, even just when we're talking about, like, the cartels of terrorism. Cooperation down south.

[Sean Ryan]

18,000 terrorists.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, that's known. They didn't know. So the terrorists I gave them, they did not know any of them were on US soil. So there's tons they don't know.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy. Are you still speaking to law enforcement?

[Sarah Adams]

Yes.

[Sean Ryan]

All over the country?

[Sarah Adams]

Yes.

[Sean Ryan]

How's that? Dawn?

[Sarah Adams]

We're almost done. Because we were just going to do a year of it because, you know, at the end of the day, you add a point. They need time to prepare. And if. Yeah, you know, I can tell them like a week before an attack happens. So we have one left. But yeah, so we've done a ton. I actually brought a bunch of the coins I'd love to show you.

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah, I think it. I think.

[Sarah Adams]

Do you have them? Yeah, I think you guys stole it from me, so you might have it.

[Sean Ryan]

There you go.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. So this is crazy. Yeah. So. And this is just the people who Gave me coins. I'm not a big coin person, but here's all the coins we've gotten. Oh, this is for you. This is from Iowa. And they wanted me to give you one of their patches. I have one too, though, so you don't have to give it back to me.

[Sean Ryan]

Thank you.

[Sarah Adams]

But look, someone gave me socks. I know. North Carolina, but yeah. So anyway.

[Sean Ryan]

So, yeah, so all these are. All these.

[Sarah Adams]

We met all these people, discuss the homeland plot. So the crazy part is, and I hope Americans understand this, you have proactive people in your country. The FBI isn't leading this. These are good people on the ground saying, we need to prepare our communities. Screw the FBI. We're going to get ahead of this plot. And they have people like me and others coming in and telling them about the plot so they can train and prepare their communities. Yeah, there's some cool ones in there. So we've been preparing, like, sheriff's departments, police chiefs. Heck, we've been with Gay Town. Is it nice? Yeah, we've been preparing gang units because, you know, gang units work the streets.

[Sean Ryan]

I've been everywhere. Florida.

[Sarah Adams]

Oh, yeah. New York, Pennsylvania, Alabama.

[Sean Ryan]

Tennessee.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, we've been to Tennessee a lot. We can't, like, blow off Sean's friends.

[Sean Ryan]

Hey, I told everybody over here. Well, we did that one together.

[Sarah Adams]

Yes.

[Sean Ryan]

Unless you've been here since and.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, I've been here numerous times since.

[Sean Ryan]

Have you really?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. Yep.

[Sean Ryan]

To our sheriff's department?

[Sarah Adams]

No, to your state.

[Sean Ryan]

Good.

[Sarah Adams]

Yep. And to your university system.

[Sean Ryan]

It's good to know they're taking it seriously.

[Sarah Adams]

Yep.

[Sean Ryan]

FBI.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. So there's a few good FBI here and there, but very few.

[Sean Ryan]

Wow, that's a lot of points.

[Sarah Adams]

Tampa FBI.

[Sean Ryan]

What kind of.

[Sarah Adams]

We're screwed.

[Sean Ryan]

I guess I probably should.

[Sarah Adams]

Your FBI is very good, though. Remember I met with your FBI?

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah. They're cool.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. Your people are squared away. Wait till you see who they sent me in Tampa. Oh, my gosh. I gotta do this. I gotta do this. So they send these. So I have a threat. Okay. So I inform FBI and I form my sheriff's department. And then I was working for Air Force at the time. So I inform osi. So my sheriff's department was at my house that night. So good job. FBI showed up about four days later, and then OSI three weeks later, even though they were. They were in my town and I work in an Air Force office in a government building. But anyway, so, yeah, sorry, but you're not going to crack anything. So, say, send these two guys to my house. I kid you not. One is FBI, but he's not an agent. I don't really understand what he is. And the other guy's like a detail to the FBI. So the detail, I'd say is about 60 years old. And he starts off detailing. Yeah. Like, I think he works.

[Sean Ryan]

You mean like.

[Sarah Adams]

Like a local police officer?

[Sean Ryan]

Okay. Yeah, but you meant.

[Sarah Adams]

Okay, don't worry, though. It's worse. I'd be fine if he's a local police officer. He. His first sentence to me is, Hi, I'm a January 6th expert. He's like 60 years old.

[Sean Ryan]

What does that mean?

[Sarah Adams]

I know. First off, what's that mean? But, whoa, whoa. You. You worked like a 30, 40 year career, and that's what your expertise is? You're selling to me. So of course I roll my eyes. So then the other guy didn't know much about anything. So I sit down.

[Sean Ryan]

I'm a January 6th expert.

[Sarah Adams]

Dude, that was.

[Sean Ryan]

Get the fuck out of here. Because you don't. This is about terrorism.

[Sarah Adams]

This is the first minute of the tone. Neither of them knew anything about terrorism. What? So I sit down. It's a very frustrating conversation, not going anywhere. But I tell the other guy, hey, you have a Libyan that you guys gave millions of dollars to in the United States, and you guys should go talk to him about this threat to me because he would be able to collect information on it. He goes, that's above my pay grade. It's above your pay grade to go meet an FBI asset that lives in Virginia. So anyway, so they go. It was a horrible conversation. So they go to leave. And the January 6th expert goes, I know you have my car, but if something goes down here, call 911. Don't call me. And I was like, what? So he leaves, and Boone was there. Cause I had Boone coming to the meeting because he knew about my threat. And I go, why does this guy think I'm gonna call him? And I went over and put his card in the trash. So that was my first, my only meeting with them. But I did meet with two other people in my Tampa office about Ryan Routh, and they were just as bad. So anyway, FBI, if you live in Tampa, you're on your own. There is no useful FBI there.

[Sean Ryan]

I mean, just what does that mean?

[Sarah Adams]

I know, but Also, he wasn't six expert. He wasn't 25.

[Sean Ryan]

Okay? That has no relevance.

[Sarah Adams]

It has irrelevance. But also, your entire career, that's the one thing you're gonna spit out to me as your expert. Like, not like, counterintelligence. Something. So. Yeah. So anyway, they sent the A team to I guess help me out. So how.

[Sean Ryan]

How are the. How are the local law enforcement guys?

[Sarah Adams]

So the local law enforcement is good. So I.

[Sean Ryan]

So the issue, are they preparing? Have you, have you seen improvements? Have you gone to the same place twice?

[Sarah Adams]

So, yeah. So it varies as you know. So I don't want to say who's better than others, but there are like, there's a county near me that if something goes down, I'm just going to their county because they're so squared away and they're very focused on it.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, yeah, you got that, Sheriff Brady, right? Well, we do, but Brady or Grady?

[Sarah Adams]

We have Grady, but it's actually not Grady. Grady doesn't have a lot of interest from what I've seen in terrorism, which is interesting, but Grady has. I'm not gonna be. I don't wanna put people down. But Grady's county is like he could find a criminal every five minutes. So he's got stuff to do. It's not like he's under work. I mean, all these criminal. There's so many human traffickers are in this county. I mean, it's crazy. I lived in that county for a bit. It was like a little bit of a cesspool of Florida, so. But no, but there are some rock stars, luckily who have been training. There's a lot of teams who've broken up their tactics and they're doing different things that they've taken on from knowing about the homeland plot. So. But as you know, everything's personality specific. So you can go five miles to the next area and that law enforcement agency isn't prepared at all. It's really fascinating to watch. I mean, there's not giant, like, there's not states just mandating everybody to do it, so. Because FBI isn't being supportive of it. So the interesting thing is, so Joe Kent finally came in and I think he started his job in August. Okay. So in September he actually put out unclassified memo to law enforcement. I don't know if you saw this. And it said, hey, there's a homeland plot from Al Qaeda. And he put in kind of some evidence that was like more unclassified. And so the crazy part is, so NCTC and then the DNI run by Tulsi put this out for all of law enforcement in the United States. I went around the country this entire year, even since September, and I never met anyone who didn't have this. I didn't meet anyone who had this memo Unless they saw me post about it. So what I've learned is two things. One is what they do is so the DNI puts stuff out and it goes to these fusion centers. Have you heard of these? All these states have fusion centers. So like in Florida we got one central Florida, but then there's multiple ones. So infra goes to these fusion centers and then they disperse it to law enforcement. And a ton of these fusion centers decided not to put out the info from nctc.

[Sean Ryan]

So I started even have that authority.

[Sarah Adams]

Well so I started asking around and at one of them I asked the guy and he said well we were distributing it and FBI came to us and said don't put up that stuff from Joe Kent. It's not true. There isn't a homeland plot. So FBI was telling fusion centers not to disseminate an official memo from inside the nctc from inside the government. Yeah, there seems to be an issue with Patel and Kent or something that I don't know about. But that's not the only one that told me. Numerous ones said yeah, FBI told us not to put out jttf, said don't release it. And so the frustrating part is we are people inside of our own government stopping the dissemination of info. So. But I don't know if you saw.

[Sean Ryan]

I don't understand why you would stop that.

[Sarah Adams]

That me either.

[Sean Ryan]

Even, even if you, because you, you could not know that it's 100% not true no matter what. And, and you couldn't know it's 100% true no matter what. But why would it be bad for local law enforcement agencies all throughout the country to be prepared for what might happen? Sounds like it's going to happen. You've done a ton of research, but why not be prepared?

[Sarah Adams]

And the crazy part is when you look at the.

[Sean Ryan]

How is that fucking harmful?

[Sarah Adams]

I know. And all the evidence they put in that memo is forward facing. You know, it's like AQAP video from June. You can go get the video and watch it and I'll tell you about it today. But so yeah, it's super, super frustrating. Well, I don't know if you saw a couple of days ago Tulsi was speaking to some sort of sheriff's association, National Sheriffs Association. Did you see that?

[Sean Ryan]

I'm, I'm concentrating on pedophiles.

[Sarah Adams]

No worries.

[Sean Ryan]

Now you're on terrorism.

[Sarah Adams]

She works at different things. I know. So she announced in that. Which was super interesting. Hey, we're making an app, an unclassified app that law enforcement can come to it and see all of our postings and get the stuff directly from us. So the interesting part is they probably also saw there's a problem and now they cut out the middleman. So there's going to be an app and if you're in law enforcement, you can go straight to it. You get it, so you don't have to wait for someone else to hand it to you. So it's very, very, very smart. So luckily they saw a problem and are fixing it, thankfully.

[Sean Ryan]

What's the name of the app? When's it going to be out?

[Sarah Adams]

I don't know. She just announced it like a couple days ago in this, you know, came out because she was telling the sheriffs.

[Sean Ryan]

We'Ll figure this out. I just want to make sure everybody knows about it. So we'll pull the clip and put it in.

[Sarah Adams]

Right now we are close to being able to release an unclassified mobile app that will allow you men and women of law enforcement who are doing the hard work on the ground, working the streets, working in the field every day to send information directly to us, to provide us with tips, to provide us that real time, your real time picture of the threat environment so that it feeds into the national picture that we are integrating across the interagency here. Again, it's good to see, though, some of the government saw a problem and they're fixing it, which you don't see a lot.

[Sean Ryan]

I like Tulsi. Yeah, I like Joe Ken.

[Sarah Adams]

So I think that they want to really move the ball forward. It's just giving them the freedom to do so, man. Oh, and then.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, fuck, Sarah.

[Sarah Adams]

Oh, you know, you. It's even.

[Sean Ryan]

Let me take a breath.

[Sarah Adams]

It's even better. So the director of FBI was down in Texas. Texas, Speaking at an event with law enforcement. I don't know if it was a sheriff's association or what. And he called the homeland plot clickbait. So we have the head of the FBI going around telling law enforcement that an Al Qaeda plot is clickbait.

[Sean Ryan]

Interesting.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. I do want to talk about the video, though. Could I do that really quick? So when I was on here before and Jane, we talked about AQAP's first video talking about the Homeland plot. That was December 2023. Well, then that head of AQAP died and there's a new head of aqap. His name is Saad Al Awlaki, but he's not related to Anwar Al Awlaki, just the same last name. So Saad put out a new video about the homeland plot. In June, it was on the Internet, like the last one for a little bit of time. So pretty much nobody's seen it. So the interesting part is when you watch the new video, and I want to explain really quick why it's coming out of AQAP. So back in about 2012, Al Qaeda was like, we need to rethink how we do our messaging. Because, you know, the US Went very, very strong at Al Qaeda's media commission. The first detainee debriefing I ever went to was in Pakistan. It was a member of the Al Qaeda military commission right in Pakistan. So Al Qaeda's like, we need to keep the focus off where we keep our military, our media commission. Let's put everything out through the Yemen branch. So starting in 2012, they put all of this major piece plotting out and the messaging around it through the Yemen branch. So the US still thinks all this plotting is coming from aqap, when no, it's just passed through them. So even though this video is from AQAP in December 2023 and in June 2025, it's from Coral Kaido. So just to be clear. So anyway, the new video has some different things than the old one. The old one had a lot of focus on the aviation plot, and the old one taught you how to make the invisible bomb. Now the new one actually does show.

[Sean Ryan]

We watch that at the sheriff's office.

[Sarah Adams]

Yes.

[Sean Ryan]

Okay.

[Sarah Adams]

So now the new one goes up. It does a little more. It shows more locations, more targets. There were some targets in the first one, like, you know, Biden was in an Elon, Musk, et cetera. So the new one is updated. So now it shows, like, Trump, Vance, Pete, Marco, Rubio, because, you know, the new administration. Elon's on there again. Poor guy. Elon. And then it shows more locations. So you see Washington, D.C. you see New York City, you see Philadelphia. But really interesting, after Philadelphia, there's two. Two shots in a small town.

[Sean Ryan]

Really?

[Sarah Adams]

Yes. So the small town ends up being Johnstown, Pennsylvania. So I. I made a really good relationship with this. This detective. She lives maybe an hour from it. So she mapped out every possible target there could be in Johnstown. And so I learned a few different things that were interesting. One is it's a 12% veteran population. Right. That's pretty high.

[Sean Ryan]

What's the population of this town?

[Sarah Adams]

Very small. I don't know, maybe 20, 23,000. Very small. I mean, maybe one or two stoplights type of city. The other one or two stoplights, it's not very big.

[Sean Ryan]

You're probably looking at 10,000 or less.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So I don't. I haven't been to this city.

[Sean Ryan]

Very odd that they would.

[Sarah Adams]

It's just like a little.

[Sean Ryan]

Let's look it up. Do you have your phone?

[Sarah Adams]

It's a little downtown. Mine's out there, but we'll look it up. But yeah, it's very small, but they have a huge VA hospital. They have kind of a private airport the military sometimes uses. There is some stuff there. Now, the other thing is it's about 20 minutes north of where Flight 93 crashed. The last thing that is super strange. And I don't know if it connects at all. This town is very famous for an event that happened many, many years ago, and it was this mass flood. And so the interesting part is how this plot's working is, you know, we have the Homeland plot, but there's all these other plots. Okay. So October 7th was plotted with it. And some of the Homeland trainees trained with them. And then they plotted for Syria, they plotting for the homeland, they're plotting some embassy plots, the plotting India plot. So all these plots are going kind of like trainings concurrent. Well, remember, the October 7th plot was called Al Aqsa Flood, which is really interesting. We don't know the name of the Homeland plot, but we actually found it really fascinating because the town didn't have anything super significant besides the veteran, which could matter. But then they had this massive flood. So we. So Al Qaeda puts this weird messaging in that you're going to figure out and learn after the fact. Right. The 2023 video has so much of that. So it's maybe we're just supposed to see something after the fact or the name's going to be pulled from that. Who knows? But these videos are so important. And I'm telling you, I'm going to law enforcement. And they've never seen these videos. They've never watched the invisible bomb be made. And it's very, very frustrating because it's like. It's right there. I'll kind of put it out for you. So there is another thing in that video that's interesting. So there's this thing where they do a bunch of shots and they're doing shots of like a little booby trap on a door. So they do a shot of like. Like a sticky bomb. Okay. You know, like a normal sticky bomb. The interesting part is when you go pull up the literature on that sticky bomb, it's maybe like six or seven years old. It's from Inspire. When you look at the image. The bomb is set up by. Off by a wind switch. So I've never. A wind switch. So I did a research and I could not find any sticky bombs set off by a wind switch. So this is fascinating. So we've been telling people there's, there's 100% going to be sticky bombs. And they this plot. But this is another thing you have to keep in mind. So this wind switch, just as you move it sets off the bomb because then the air hits it. It's like almost a piece of cardboard flap. So the one thing is, we have hardly any law enforcement that looks for sticky bombs on their car. They might go to lunch. They don't look for a sticky bomb. We have cars that sit around and nobody takes them until emergency happens. And then they drive them all off. Right. So there's little things like that too. Like everybody, we talk about the invisible bomb, which is a big deal and a big innovation, but we forget things like a sticky bomb. And the terrorists that are building them are going to use them in this plot. And we don't even have law enforcement looking on their own vehicles to see if there's a sticky bomb. So we don't even have all the basics. And the other problem is, I mean.

[Sean Ryan]

That'S an easy fix.

[Sarah Adams]

I know, but it's getting people to do it. Yeah.

[Sean Ryan]

To the parking lot.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, it's wrapped, though, in the silicon again.

[Sean Ryan]

You don't think a dog can sniff that out?

[Sarah Adams]

We've had it tested and they can't.

[Sean Ryan]

No. Are you serious?

[Sarah Adams]

Yep, yep. So. So, yeah, that worked. I mean, Al Qaeda did it. They tested it. But there have been people who've tested here and they say, yep, that works. They can't smell it. The dog might act somewhat different though, so you could have a slight change in behavior, but they are not alerting on them. So big problem. But these sticky bombs, if you're looking in your car, you're not going to miss them. It's not like invisible. Now. Now the other issue is, so we have these all kind of bombs. I just don't want people to only look for sticky bombs because there's going to be regular suicide vests, regular IEDs, there's going to be pipe bombs, just think of every bomb. But then we have the invisible bomb, which is special because it goes to the magnetometers. You can take it in the airport and go to secure spaces. But then we just have normal suicide bombers besides these. So in a normal suicide vest. But think about it, we don't have these suicide bombers in the United States. I'm going to these law enforcement places. They do not have standard operating procedures for suicide bombers. They have no training on suicide bombers. And remember, some of these suicide vests have chemicals in them. They don't even have hazmat. So there's just simple pieces of this plot. If you don't go out and sit and tell people they're not planning or preparing for them. That's why you got to travel around to as many as you can and say, hey, hey, hey. And once they start seeing and understanding it, they're like, oh, my gosh, we got to do these things. But it's like our government's not actually, like, putting anything out to tell anybody. Man.

[Sean Ryan]

Every time we talk, I just get fucking enraged.

[Sarah Adams]

But you saw. I mean, there's people trying. There's a ton of police and sheriff doing this themselves, putting these things in place, very proactive. I mean, a lot of communities have teams who are really on this, but they're being failed by the federal government.

[Sean Ryan]

I just don't understand why the FBI is so against these law enforcement agencies preparing for a potential terrorist attack. I mean, we've already seen stuff. I mean, there's a National Guard guy that got, you know, that killed in D.C. you track. I know you're tracking that.

[Sarah Adams]

Oh, yeah. So that one I spent. Obviously, I had to look into that one because he's former CIA. So, yeah, so that's Ramanua Lacon Wall. So the interesting thing is, like, around 2007, so his birthday's wrong here, just so everybody knows. Because if you go through the dates, it's like, we recruit him at 12 years old. We didn't. But you know how foreigners change their date. So just FYI, the age his US government has for him is incorrect. But who cares? Almost every foreigner in this country, the wrong birthday's wrong. So anyway, around 2006, well, a lot.

[Sean Ryan]

Of them from third world countries, they don't even know when.

[Sarah Adams]

They just make it up. When I was in grad school, I was mentoring a guy from the Emirates, and he said, oh, I just made my birthday a couple years older, so when I came here, I could drink, right? He just made up completely and nobody cares. That's, you know, so it's not all nefarious. So anyway, so he goes and he trains at Eagle Base. So he gets. He's from coast, so he gets. A lot of people don't understand. So what the CIA did is they were recruiting, and I know, you know, this I'm just explaining to people. They recruited people from areas where there's a lot of terrorists and terrorism because they grew up in it, they understand it, they can operate in those environments, and they know what they're looking at. So he's from coast, recruited in one of these areas. So he goes up, he trains Eagle Base, and then he doesn't get deployed back with the coast team. He actually gets deployed down to Kandahar, and he's at Gecko. So he was on one of our teams. It's true. At Gecko. Now what a lot of people get confused about is you can be have a background check to work for CIA, right? If you're overseas, heck, you can be a terrorist and work for CIA, but that doesn't mean you're vetted to come and live in the United States. So he was never vetted by CIA to come here. So that's one thing that kind of gets lost. People like CIA brought him here and all these type of things. This really didn't happen. The other thing is that really frustrates me. So everybody's like, yeah, he came here, he couldn't fit in. He was a loner. He's playing video games all day. But what they're lying to you about is. And this really frustrates me. This is why we have no vetting. His brother is a tail. He's dead now. His brother was a member of Islamic State, Khorasan province. So his brother Hayatula started in the TTP who we just talked about, and he was in a rockstar agency working. And then he gets recruited by ISKP, and then he becomes one of ISKP's main recruiters in the eastern portion of Afghanistan. Well, as you can imagine, he's already on Pakistan's radar because of the TTP time. And then he's recruiting on these terrorists. He's also recruiting Pakistanis. So they basically, like take him out in summer of 2022. But we brought Ramanuli here prior to that. So his brother was a member of ttp, then isk, ap and still gotten in the United States. So we are doing no proper vetting if we're just letting in the siblings of terrorists.

[Sean Ryan]

I mean, it doesn't surprise me.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, it's just super, super frustrating. So unfortunately, that's what kill him. But again, everybody's like, oh, he got depressed here and he got radicalized here. You don't get radicalized in America when you were in a house and your brother was a TTP terrorist. Like you were radicalizing Your damn home. You grew up in coast. You're recruiting because you're from an area with terrorists. So we have to get Americans to start understanding too what a terrorist is. No, they're not getting a little depressed and shooting people because American life is hard. They've lived way harder lives.

[Sean Ryan]

So I didn't even know that was a narrative.

[Sarah Adams]

Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Oh, no. He was sitting around playing video games all day, Sean, and got just so depressed.

[Sean Ryan]

It'll do it to you.

[Sarah Adams]

I know those video games people just.

[Sean Ryan]

Need to get the out of this.

[Sarah Adams]

Country for and they don't understand evil.

[Sean Ryan]

Or did you? Where was that one? This maybe was six months ago. Maybe those two guys, I think they were on a bridge or in a park or something. They were doing mag changes with bolt action rifles. Pretty sure was. Do you know what I'm talking about?

[Sarah Adams]

Texas. And then they did some shots and then there's some kids playing soccer or is this a different one?

[Sean Ryan]

I think it's a different one.

[Sarah Adams]

Okay, okay. Okay.

[Sean Ryan]

I think so. They had bolt action rifles and they were trained. Yeah, they were trained. We talk a lot on this show about protecting your family and being prepared for the worst case scenario.

I mean, when you look at that video, I don't, I can't remember how many people were killed or heard or any of that stuff. But when you look at how proficient that guy is, it operating a bolt action rifle with speed. I got six years as a SEAL and nine working as a CIA contractor and I can't fucking operate a bolt action like that. It's, that shit's terrifying. I mean, these, these guys are training.

[Sarah Adams]

I mean, and they're honing these skills. And a lot of times this is what they're doing full time. And I try to explain this to people because I get all these people, oh, have them come to my town. I'll take them on. I'm like, these guys are training in advanced urban warfare. They're training seven days a week. They're training in small teams. And we don't have law enforcement that even trains that way. We have drills in this country for one active shooter. Well, what are you going to do when it's 10? You have no plan for that? What about five more at another location in your town? You don't have a plan for that? So the crazy part is they're investing so much Time into this training because things did go wrong in the past, especially bomb making, right? So they were like, we got to be proficient on these things. We have people in law enforcement who need to try over and over again to pass. Like the basic proficiency we can't have. You can't go up against these guys with basic proficiency. You got to put the time, the money and effort into training people. And until they come here and operate in one of these teams and like shock everyone. That's when everybody will put in training budgets in. But guess what? That's too late. Then, then you have tons of dead Americans. And so it is this very frustrating thing. And he's such a good example. I don't know why everybody's not showing that because that's a restrictive environment. He still took the time he went to arrange, he did that training. We should be watching for stuff like that. Watching those little things that they're improving on to be proficient at.

[Sean Ryan]

Why it's also showing that they're going to use what's available to them. You know what I mean? Because wherever. Where did, where did that guy come from?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, well, so he.

[Sean Ryan]

Was he an Australian citizen?

[Sarah Adams]

No, but, but he grew up there. His father immigrated there, so he was an Australian.

[Sean Ryan]

Getting at is, I mean obviously terror cells have access to pretty much anything you want. You know what I mean? And, but they're using, I mean, I guess what I'm saying is they're, they're, they're resourceful and they're using what's available to them in the immediate environment and getting very proficient with it. That nobody uses a bolt action rifle like that. It's for hunting, it's for sniper, it's for long, long distance shooting. He just turned a bolt action into an effective, I mean it's, it's, it's, it's, it's. I've never seen anybody do it like that.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, but you are right, depending on the location. So if you're being deployed to Europe, for example, you spend a lot more time training on knives. Like a ton of time training on knives because you're likely going to use knives as part of your attack because it is a little harder even for terrorist groups to get the guns and weapons they need. But, but yeah, the United States, I mean they're just training on. You know, I know every time I bring up guns I say them wrong, but you know, like fully automatic long gun type of things.

[Sean Ryan]

Semi autos.

[Sarah Adams]

Semi autos. See iris. But there's, remember they brought the guns here, so this is another problem. I'm trying to get people.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, they brought guns into our country?

[Sarah Adams]

Yes.

[Sean Ryan]

Why would they do that?

[Sarah Adams]

Because we have different restrictions on some of our guns. So if they bring the guns in here, it won't have all the restrictions on like the speed and stuff. Sorry, I'm really bad with guns. This is why no one ever gives me a gun. But they brought in guns that could.

[Sean Ryan]

You want a gun, Sarah?

[Sarah Adams]

No, no, no, I'm fine.

[Sean Ryan]

I know a guy.

[Sarah Adams]

But then they brought some bigger guns in too. So I don't know tons about guns. But you know, like things that have like the 50 caliber rounds. I know everybody's like painting at my gun talk. But so yes, so they brought their own. They did bring some guns, but some of the guns they brought in, they brought in because they say property of US Government because they want it to be on the scene. And then holy. The public blame the government. So some. Doesn't end. Nothing special about the gun, but it's marked rightly so. Yeah. Wow.

[Sean Ryan]

Wow, how you. Wow, you caught that. That they are planning on using guns that say property of U. S. Government.

[Sarah Adams]

Yep. They moved them Afghanistan with 100 holes.

[Sean Ryan]

I mean, holy shit, they're gonna fucking kill us.

[Sarah Adams]

But it's not just guns.

[Sean Ryan]

It's. It's.

[Sarah Adams]

You know how they say.

[Sean Ryan]

I mean, it's again, it's. It's actually fucking brilliant.

[Sarah Adams]

It is. It's even more though, Sean. So you know how I say we give this money the Taliban?

[Sean Ryan]

See, this is the kind of unconventional warfare that we should have been fucking doing ourselves this entire time.

[Sarah Adams]

I know, right? It is what they think we're doing, we don't do. So long story short, there's Taliban money legends explain to you the 40 million humanitarian it goes gets becomes Afghanis, but the counterterrorism dollars at 47 million stays US cash. So some of that US cash has been brought back into this country. So when you look at those bills, they're going to go straight back to the treasury that did the shipment because we have barcodes on our dollars. And you're going to know that that money was given from the US treasury to the Taliban. And it's going to prove the US government funded the attack. That's the level this attack is planned at every fucking. So then the public sees that, they're going to put that out and you're going to be like, yeah, like how do you argue that it is the money the US government gave? How are you going to argue the US Government to fund this and didn't know about it.

[Sean Ryan]

They'll hide it.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, but I'm saying they put in real evidence, which is crazy.

[Sean Ryan]

I know, but it will never hit. I guess what I'm saying is the weapons, somebody will probably pick that up. The cat cash. I don't, I just don't see that getting to the media.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, but the terrorists are going to.

[Sean Ryan]

Put it in the media because everybody's so in, Everybody just wants to protect the institution to, to continue their, their power. Right.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah.

[Sean Ryan]

So, I mean we see it, we, we see it going on right now with all, all kinds of shit. I know I have an interview cooking that's going to reveal a lot of that kind of shit. All these fucking people that protect institutions and it's, they're not all way up there. It's also the lower level people that want to protect the institution. And it's, it's, it's. So I don't think that, that, I don't think that will hit.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, it might not hit.

[Sean Ryan]

It would have to be somebody who doesn't want to protect the institution that.

[Sarah Adams]

Leaks it, which will. But it's just the idea they're planting evidence. So if you want to dig into it, you can prove tons of evidence that the US government funded it, it supported it, backed it, and that's the win they want. They want you to be like someone who, like the 911 people who said the government did it. They want you to say that about the next attack because they don't want you to focus on Al Qaeda. They want you to bring down your government. That's the whole point of it. They want you to not trust your government and say, my government can't keep me safe. My government is funding terrorism.

[Sean Ryan]

News flash, we're already there.

[Sarah Adams]

I know. Well, the interesting part is some of us remember terrorist organizations are also religious organizations. So actually, religious wise, a Taliban cannot take money from us. So they actually had to basically make an edict to allow it. They're allowing it because the money is going to be a part of a deceptive campaign. And then you can do it if you're going to use it for deception. And Americans just don't understand this at all, but the terrorists do. So this money they're going to use in deceptive practices and then it makes it, it okay under their Islamic principles. And so there's so many things even not understood. We fought these guys for 20 years and we still don't understand even just some of those basics.

[Sean Ryan]

Ryan, Ruth. Yes, let's talk about him.

[Sarah Adams]

So yeah. So, well, this is it. We're filming today. I know it's going to air later, but they're actually going to give him a sentencing February 4th.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, really? Yeah, tomorrow.

[Sarah Adams]

Tomorrow. I just have to say the dates because I know it's not airing tomorrow. But the interesting part is. So, you know, we talked about him previously, because I put out a BOLO on him like, way back in, like, May of 2023.

[Sean Ryan]

But you really.

[Sarah Adams]

Yes, because he was causing. Remember, at the time, I was running a nonprofit in Ukraine, and he was. So the thing is, Ryan Routh went to Ukraine to be a fighter. Of course he got there, and you have to actually have real bonafides to join the legion. He tries to join the legion. They're like, you have no background. You can't be in the legion. So what he did is he went to Kiev, and Kiev kind of has like a. I don't know, I would call it like a central market area of town. And he was hanging out there all day. He would hold up a sign with, like, his phone number. And so he was telling people, reach out to me and I'll put you in touch with groups. And so I was one of the groups, and he would act like he's associated with us to put volunteers into our group. And of course, we didn't take anything from this crazy guy. Well, then he decided, oh, I'm gonna be like. I'm gonna be like a PMC or something. So then he makes up this whole ruse. I'm gonna bring all these foreigners in to fight in Ukraine. So he makes, like, a nonprofit. He puts the same phone number all over the place. He starts calling, like, Afghan commanders, hey, give me some of your fighters.

[Sean Ryan]

This is the guy. This is the. This is the guy that tried to kill Trump on the golf course in. In Mar a Lago, right?

[Sarah Adams]

Yes. Yes.

[Sean Ryan]

This guy. This guy was able to.

[Sarah Adams]

No, no telling you.

[Sean Ryan]

Okay, okay.

[Sarah Adams]

This is what he's trying to do. He's trying to recruit Afghans, people from Africa, et cetera. Well, of course, the Ukrainian government's like, we're not going to give any visas to Afghans, because if we have DID Afghans on our soil, people are going to think we're the most horrible people. Because think about it. Terrorists just took over the country of Afghanistan. If the Ukrainian government brought a bunch of Afghans in to fight and they'd be killed by a bunch of Russians, the whole world would be like, why are you using Afghans? You're taking advantage of these vulnerable people. So The Ukrainian government said, hell no, we're just not issuing these visas for any group. You could even have been a general Petraeus asking. So it was no across the board. So Ryan Ralph didn't care about the facts. And he started literally getting Afghans to illegally come towards Ukraine, thinking they're gonna fight. And of course, when they got there, Legion's like, you can't fight here. Our government said no. So he starts running these things, schemes. He's collecting. He's telling Americans, oh, I'm helping in Ukraine. He's collecting, like, donations, not huge sums, but this is funding his life there. So then. So here's kind of where this part of the story comes in. So I report him. So I first report him publicly, and then my. The. Like my chief information officer and my NGO reports at the State Department. I talked to a couple other people, an Afghan commander, another ngo, and they report to the State Department government. So of course, this all happens. Ryan Routh tries to assassinate the president. And so my BOLO comes out because people start sharing it, hey, there's this BOLO a year ago. And so the press start calling me. So that was September 2024. So all this press, these press House outlets reached out to me, and I told them that little bit of my story. But I told them, we sent these complaints to State Department. So they call State Department. They're like, we have nothing on record about Ryan Routh. Nothing at all. There's. He's not even in our system. Well, then there was like, a FOIA request. I want to say it was Daily Caller, and it just came back, like, a month ago. And there's tons of stuff in State Department files on Ryan Routh. And they were literally investigating him. And they lied to the press when they called him on me, saying, we don't have his name anywhere in our files.

[Sean Ryan]

Just like what I was talking about with the cash.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. So they lied to the press. And it was funny. One of the guys in the press called me back, said, I just talked to State, but his name isn't the.

[Sean Ryan]

I said, I can promise you to protect the institution.

[Sarah Adams]

Exactly. And I said, I can promise you a year or two, you'll hear it's in there. Because every truth takes about two more years to come out. That's just how it works in the government. But so, yeah, so with Ryan Routh. But it's really interesting. One other thing about him, about that plotting didn't come out, and it should. So he did the whole thing that we all know in Mar A Lago. But remember, there's that thing where there's the deer blind. It was like 12ft up in the tree, and it was towards Palm Beach Airport, and it was where Trump brought in his plane.

[Sean Ryan]

I didn't even see that one.

[Sarah Adams]

Okay, so, yeah, so law enforcement found this, like, deer stand in the tree, and they're like, oh, we think it was to assassinate the president. Ryan Routh built that deer stand. That's why we never heard any follow up on it, because everyone's like, who made the deer stand? And then they come back around and say, he built the deer stand. Because he does. He can build stuff. He has, like a background in some carpentry. But anyway, yeah, so he. He's hopefully gonna get life in prison. They don't have, like a death penalty or anything like that on the table. But anyway. But yes, State Department lied, but it's just another great example.

[Sean Ryan]

Are they. Are they investigating it now or the butler one?

[Sarah Adams]

I don't know any how any of those investigations are going, but obviously that would be what FBI. Good luck. You know my opinions on how. Well FBI investigator Benghazi. I mean, I would not. If. If. If you told me FBI was investigating anything for me, I would either pay money and just have someone investigate, or I'd be like, okay, I'm never gonna get answers. Yeah, that's. That's my level of optimism.

[Sean Ryan]

I think that's probably just about everybody's.

[Sarah Adams]

Level of optimism, and we want it. I'm fine if you reform the FBI, but it's never happening. So I'm at the point. Just disband it. I'm fine. We have a lot of great law enforcement in this country. We can do a different organization, bring in some quality people.

[Sean Ryan]

Geez. What's the updates on Benghazi?

[Sarah Adams]

So we're still working the investigation because there's so many damn terrorists. You know, one of the really frustrating things happened last summer. So Al Qaeda did this operation, this operational plan, and they were going to basically attack a prison where a bunch of our terrorists are held. So it's called Matiga Prison. It's just. Just in Tripoli. Do you remember kind of like when Benghazi happened? There was like a real airport, and that's where Team Tripoli went out of. Well, then there was a military airport. So that was Matiga. The real airport ended up being, like, bombed by terrorists, and it closed. And then Matega kind of became the prison. I mean, the real airport, but it had a prison always in it. So terrorists are kept in this airport, prison okay, so this is where pretty much all of our Benghazi attackers are who aren't with General Haftar's coffee custody. So anyway, Al Qaeda was going to go and overrun this prison and release our terrorists. So we found out about it and put it up publicly. And there was a lot of pressure on the Libyan government. Hey, you're going to let Al Qaeda just attack a prison and free all these people? So then the Libyan government went to Al Qaeda and, like, we got to do this a little more quietly. We can't have a massive attack on the prison. Right now. The international community is paying attention. So this is what's crazy. So the prison's run by this organization called rada. They're called the Special Deterrence Forces. They're almost like a militia. They're more capable than most militias in Libya, but they're not completely clean. So, like, that's where Ziad Balam was taken. And he was treated like a king while he was inside for the 10 days. So anyway, they're holding it. They get a letter from an American who works for the un. Her name is Stephanie Curry. And she hands this letter to the head of rada and it says, in good faith, you know, for your relationship with the UN and the United States, please release these 56 people. So it said, please release them in good faith. So the Radagai looks through the names, and of the 56, 50 are terrorists from ISIS and Al Qaeda, including Benghazi attackers. So I don't have the list, but I know some of the ones they were focused on. Is. So one of our terrorists, his name is Hisham Abu Sidra, we call him Kubayb during the attack because, you know, that was his kunya. When he was captured a couple years ago, he was the head of ISIS in Libya. Okay, so this is one person. Another one is Muhammad Al Gharabi. When he attacked us in Benghazi, he was the head of Al Qaeda in Benghazi. And then the last one, I'm in Buah mood. So he first off is related. Remember how I said FBI paid off that witness to frame the mastermind? So he's his cousin. But then two years after our attack, he kidnapped the Jordanian ambassador. So anyway, so this list has 50 terrorists. So Rana goes back to this chick, Stephanie Corey, who works for the un. She's an American, and says, this whole list is terrorists. We can't release these people. Well, I find out about it, and this prison is very important to me because a bunch of my attackers are in it. There are like three people in the entire west who give any damn about terrorists in this prison. If you asked me to write a list of 50 terrorists sitting in that prison today who are actively inside, I could not do it. So I'm like, there's no way an American woman could sit down and write that list. Like I could in a month, maybe put a list, 20, 25 together. Because people don't stay in that prison long. I told you, Ziyad was only there 10 days. So sometimes they rotate in and out. So I was like, what the hell? Where did she get this list? Well, I find out where she got the list. So in Libya, there's this Grand Mufti. His name is Al Siddiq Al Ghrani. So he's the religious authority in Libya, but he's a member of Al Qaeda and he's a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, of course. And he has oversight of all religious stuff to do with the Libyan government. But it's not like American, and it's separate. So he's also involved in oil industry, any kind of governance, trade. Right. Because religious role in all of this. He gave her the list. So a member of Al Qaeda gave an American a list of terrorists to release that included some of our 2012 Ghazi attackers. Did you hear anyone do anything? What? Mike waltz runs the U.N. nothing. Like, why are we having Americans trying to get Benghazi attackers released? Like, I'm so angry about this. It's so hard as it is to get these guys detained. I can't even tell you. But to know people who worked for my own government, like, are perfectly fine getting Al Qaeda and ISIS terror. So it's the head of ISIS in Libya. You know how many people he killed?

[Sean Ryan]

I just. I just.

[Sarah Adams]

And then I have to be collecting and trying to counter these stupid activities. That's the crazy part. There's also no entity in the US Government trying to do anything. Right.

[Sean Ryan]

No, I think we can all see that.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. And that's another thing. We get all these people that run for office. Oh, yeah. The U. N's corrupt. They fund terrorism and do all these things. They get in, they do nothing about them. They don't defund them. They keep letting this stuff happen. But we're gonna. At least 50 terrorists. Because some.

[Sean Ryan]

I was getting that earlier too. It's just talking points for them to put on X. I know. That's all this is. Oh, no, I'm not talking about Tim Burch. I think Tim Burch.

[Sarah Adams]

Tim does a good job.

[Sean Ryan]

Good man. But all these other people just batting this back and forth, it's like, shut up.

[Sarah Adams]

Yep.

[Sean Ryan]

And do your job.

[Sarah Adams]

And they don't want anything.

[Sean Ryan]

What the we voted you in there for?

[Sarah Adams]

No. Yeah, they don't.

[Sean Ryan]

But it's so. I just. I don't see red or blue Republican, Democrat anymore. I. I don't. I don't see any of that. I just see it's not. You're either a piece of or you're not.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, I mean, it's the elites versus everyone else. Because Kim, Tim Burch is no lead and that's really what the world is. I mean, all these people, you know, I went and worked on the Hill and saw it. Like these Congress people, they'll go and they'll say bad things about each other. Then they're at dinner together. I remember the first time I went to a congressional lunch and it's like, there's some Dems, they're all coming up and hugging each other. And I'm like, wait, on tv, these people were hating each other. They make plans about who's going to say what.

[Sean Ryan]

It's all a game, Jeremy, called WWF Wrestling. Yeah, it's literally WWF Wrestling.

[Sarah Adams]

They will keep their system in place and protect each other's parties no matter what. There is no draining the swamp. And it's just a frustrating thing to watch. And so many people idealistic where they love, like, the person they voted for. And it's just like, you just feel bad because you're going to be so disappointed when they find out.

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah, I know, I know. I can't. I just. Let's just move on.

[Sarah Adams]

Perfect.

[Sean Ryan]

All right, so let's. Let's walk me around. What's going on geopolitically around the world.

[Sarah Adams]

Oh, gosh, the whole world.

[Sean Ryan]

What's going on with Iran?

[Sarah Adams]

I mean, Iran is a very complicated thing because so much of our government has this belief, you know, in the strong middle right, it is better to back a government with a strong man because we know exactly what we're getting. So even though I feel like the majority of Americans, and of course I am with the people of Iran, our government isn't really supportive of that because they're like, we can negotiate with them. We can send them money, we can keep them at bay. We know how to deal with them. We do not know how to deal with or what kind of control or influence we're going to have with the next government. Government that comes in. So we have this tough situation where unfortunately all these people are dying. The other thing that's happening. That's very frustrating. So first off, I'm going to talk about that. So that means we're talking about our deals right now with Iran are nothing to do with the people. It's nuclear diplomacy. Because nuclear diplomacy is where you can fall back, pretend you're doing something, and then you make a deal and you say, hey, we solved something, and it doesn't do anything for the people. So that's what we're doing. But what happens with the people? And this is something that was different than all the last times our government said, don't hang people publicly. So the frustrating thing now is they're doing extrajudicial killings, right? They'll just walk in and shoot some in the head. They're injecting people and killing them. So we have no concept now of how many people are being killed. After being detained before, they'd at least go to death row and be hanged. And you can monitor it in some way, but we have people getting murdered in the street, streets. And, you know, in the streets, it's not just Iranians. There's Iraqi militias, there's Afghans. I mean, it's crazy because Iran has an Afghan brigade people don't really talk about, but the fetuin brigade. So anyway, there's all these terrorists and bad actors killing people in the streets. But then even when they end up in a hospital or in custody, they're now being extrajudicially killed. And we're basically telling them to do it. Like, just don't do it publicly.

[Sean Ryan]

As of this recording, Polymarket says there's a 19% chance that Caminillo. Who am I saying I'm saying that wrong. Will be out as supreme leader of Iran by March 31. What do you think?

[Sarah Adams]

I think because our government's doing this nuclear deal stuff, I don't believe it at all. Now, if our government had said, we are done negotiating with the government, Iran, we only negotiate with the people, I would say he'll be out 80%. But now that they're like, no, we're gonna, like, the deal's weird if it's true. Like, they're gonna give us a little bit of Iranium, and then we're gonna be like, okay, it's all good. But it's. The people, like, can't afford to live. They're oppressed. Terrorists are running their country. There's people killed with no crimes. Like, none of that is being addressed. And so that's super, super frustrating. So I think he. If we had handled it differently I would say that, but how I'm watching it. It's a nuclear deal. I don't think anything's changing, but I.

[Sean Ryan]

Don'T think a 19 chance is a great. I know, but I think it's less than that.

[Sarah Adams]

Oh, I think it's 2%.

[Sean Ryan]

You think it's 2%?

[Sarah Adams]

Yes. Now, a month ago I would have said it's 19, but now that I've seen this weird nuclear deal. I know the government's.

[Sean Ryan]

What is the nuclear. Well, I mean, so.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, a government is interesting to see.

[Sean Ryan]

How polymarket's percentage changes after.

[Sarah Adams]

Sorry, polymarket, but our government is negotiating with Iran. Okay, but the negotiations happening right now with Iran are about nuclear. They started negotiations when these protests started. And they're about the nuclear program. They're nothing to do with what any of the protesters are asking for. That's what I'm saying. That's why I know he's staying in power. Because that wouldn't be the deal you'd be working on. You don't need to make a nuclear deal with a guy you're kicking out. Right. If this guy's gonna be done in a month or two, we gotta make a new nuclear deal with him. He's gonna be gone. We can end the whole program a week after he leaves. So. Yeah. So that's why I know it's a game now.

[Sean Ryan]

So we don't. We don't all. That's all a facade too. We don't give a shit about the. I mean, I give a shit. I know the US Government doesn't give a shit about the.

[Sarah Adams]

Shit about the people of Iran.

[Sean Ryan]

Do you think we should have bombed Iran back in. When was that? When was that? It was in the summer. We were in Dubai, we were flying home. And y.

[Sarah Adams]

100%. So the thing is. And Iran knew this anyway, we were always going to bomb Iran when we found out they hit a certain level of enrichment or they could get close to putting.

[Sean Ryan]

How did we find that out?

[Sarah Adams]

So.

[Sean Ryan]

Because here's what's interesting to me, and I can't tell you who told me this, not on air. Not one of our intelligence agencies said that they had. They were enriching uranium. It was Mossad that came up along and told.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, the first thing is, you have to remember Mossad has way better access in Iran than we do. Just to be honest, I'm. I have some better accesses in Iran than the US government does. So we have to be really honest about that. The US does have bad access than Iran. So They've always had to rely on other people. So that's no conspiracy. Think about it. That's Iran's greatest enemy. They have the best axis here, just like we had the best axis in Afghanistan when we were fighting the Taliban there. Right. Because that was our enemy. So you have to view it in that lens. Okay, so that's not a conspiracy.

[Sean Ryan]

Okay, but wouldn't, I mean, remember early on in Afghanistan when we would go into these villages and we would just take somebody's word for it? Oh, no, they're the bad guys. Not realizing that these people, these two groups have been battling each other for a thousand years. I mean, so you know what I mean?

[Sarah Adams]

That's not exactly what's happening in this case. So I will tell you this. They were 100% enriching. And the US government also has information that they're enriching. It's not just from Mossad. That's 100% not true. I mean, I even had access to a guy who had a family member in the program. The program is real. The program is much farther along than our government was aware. And I think they were caught a little bit with their pants down and realize it is more advanced than we thought. Remember for like 15 years they kept saying it's not advancing. Sorry, A program does not not advance for 15 years. So our government just kept rolling the same assessment over into every year. And I really do think Trump saw it and we said, said, holy crap, we are so behind on our assessment on this. It's, we gotta hit them now. That's. I do believe they had enriched that much. I personally believe it. Remember I used to work at RAN in the CIA. So there's so many conspiracy things around Mossad. You have to look at the facts of the situation. They have been enriching very successfully. Luckily, we've been tripping them up over the years over and over again. And Mossad has done it plenty of taking other scientists and stuff. But the enrichment still slowly kept happening. People act like, what, for all that time nothing improved? That doesn't make any sense. I mean, they brought in people, you know, they brought in Libyan scientists after Gaddafi fell. They obviously always brought in Pakistanis. So they have the capabilities and always had it to make it happen. And so I think that's just the whole current anti Israel propaganda.

[Sean Ryan]

Well, who are they more a threat to, us or Israel?

[Sarah Adams]

Well, they're more effective Israel. But I'm telling you, to say no one in the US government believed in the enrichment isn't true. I'M just telling you there's not no analyst in the US Government who didn't believe in Richmond. That's just, that's a assessment put out in the wild for the public. But that's not real, you know, unfortunately.

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah, I don't know, maybe I'm skewed, but reading these Epstein files and all the racial remarks towards Americans and Christians is just.

[Sarah Adams]

I mean, that's the world. Remember, the world's running by the Muslim Brotherhood. The world's not run by America, and people need to realize that. I hate to let people know, but we are not the top of the pyramid.

[Sean Ryan]

Let's talk about firearm security and readiness because most people get this wrong. If you keep a firearm for home defense, you've got a real problem. How do you keep it secure from kids or guests, but still access it instantly when seconds matter? I've tried the electronic safes. Batteries die, keys get lost, and fumbling in the dark is not an option. Stopbox is practical and built for people who want real protection without giving up speed or control. It's completely mechanical. No batteries, no keys, nothing to fail. The five button design is built for muscle memory, so with one hand you get fast access while keeping everyone else out. Your firearm stays secure but always ready. And that's what sold me. You shouldn't have to choose between safe storage and being prepared. I keep mine staged in different locations around the house. It's TSA compliant for travel and it's made right here in the usa. If you carry or keep a firearm at home, this is one upgrade that actually makes sense.

Let's go to Syria. Interesting. I had a conversation with a good friend of mine who is there actually. He's got a coin right over there that he brought me back from. He's a jtac. He bombed the shit out of ISIS over there working with the Kurds.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah.

[Sean Ryan]

Called me up the other day, but.

[Sarah Adams]

Doesn'T work with him anymore.

[Sean Ryan]

All upset. He's like, dude, all the people that we were working with there are now being fucking slaughtered.

[Sarah Adams]

I know, it's horrible.

[Sean Ryan]

And I just, I said I'm sorry, man. Like, I hate that you're going through this, but every single veteran generation in America goes through this. We, we go, we pretend like these people are allies, we abandon them and then they all get slaughtered. This is ex, this is what we just went through in Afghanistan. It's already happening in Syria. Kurds are never going to work with us again. What's going on over there?

[Sarah Adams]

We let him be slaughtered in Iraq like in the 90s and they still came back. But, but I mean, I, I mean it's the most horrible thing I know. I mean, we knew this was going to happen though when we back back the new government that was led by Abu Muhammad Al Jilani, remember that was an Al Qaeda operation to take Syria. So Al Qaeda took the country of Syria and the Muslim Brotherhood put in all the leaders. Okay, so that's just simple. Now, when we ended up backing this Al Qaeda leader, then of course he started doing genocides. So did genocides against the Druze, the Alawites. So we knew it was coming for the Kurds. I even reported out maybe in August or November. I mean, October, November that they put on the calendar, that in January they're going to start the Kurdish Genocide, which they did. So we told that months in advance it was happening. And the Kurds knew this. And so they first started, and they were just pushing the Kurds out of a neighborhood they run in Aleppo. But if you even see. So they displaced like 150,000 people. This was just a few weeks ago. If you see the narratives coming out of the US government, it's crazy. They're so pro terrorist. They say they were doing clearing operations in these neighborhoods. These are purely Kurdish neighborhoods. There was like even the New York Post, they showed a video of one of the tunnels, because, as you can imagine, the Kurds were in this neighborhood during Assad too. So they built tunnels so they could escape when Assad would come and kill them. So they're showing these tunnels and like, look at these terrorist tunnels in Syria. They're called Kurdish tunnels, terrorism tunnels. So our government's leaning in really strong also to put out a propaganda that this new Syrian government's a democracy and it's our new partner, it's our ally. The exact same thing they did with the Taliban when they left Afghanistan. But this is crazy. They're doing all these genocides.

[Sean Ryan]

We're inviting this guy into our country. He's cutting people's fucking heads off.

[Sarah Adams]

I know. And he's slaughtered thousands since taking over. Also, what they're really being dishonest about and would love your friend's opinion. So also Jilani's guys and HTs, because he still runs HTs, went in and they broke out all these ISIS prisoners in these camps. Our government is not telling us how many ISIS prisoners got released. Like, they started saying maybe 150got released. I've already heard from inside Syria, the Numbers over, over 1500 ISIS terrorists are released. The US government is not like putting them on a list going and trying to recapture them. And then Abu Muhammad al Julani's sister, because she's a terrorist, was in one of these camps, and he not only had her broken out, he then flew her via helicopter to his palace. Okay, so we can see this, but our government can't see any of this is happening. And that's our ally. So they're gonna fund Abu Muhammad Al Jilani to fight ISIS when He just released 1500 members of it. Like, they're lying to the public that they're fighting isis. So I don't know if you saw the event in December.

[Sean Ryan]

Why, why are they. Why would they lie?

[Sarah Adams]

They did the same thing in Afghanistan.

[Sean Ryan]

I know.

[Sarah Adams]

I wrote a 50 page report. So, yeah, so our government right now remember, they give 47 million a week to the Taliban to fight ISIS. So I asked the logical question, well, are they fighting isis? And we did an entire investigation for a whole year and we put a 50 page report showing their fake ISIS operations. So they're telling our government they killed this guy or government will handle $20 million for some dead guy and the guy's completely alive. We showed you, we showed tons of examples of that in the report. So no one in our government is actually going to confirm the information. So it's funny, we did these attacks in Syria about a month ago now. And it was like, oh, we found all these, these locations from the new government of ISIS that we didn't know of. And so what they did is the new government did like they buried weapons caches in the desert and we hit them in areas ISIS never operated in. So we're running fake ISIS operations. And then we had the horrible incident.

[Sean Ryan]

We're running fake ISIS operations in Syria.

[Sarah Adams]

And we're running fake ISIS operations through the Taliban in Afghanistan, which in Afghanistan they're extraditional killings. We're killing, killing innocent people and marking on a board somewhere in the DOD that we killed 12 members of ISIS. It's totally fraudulent. We did the same for years in Somalia. So anyway, but in December, we lost the two National Guardsmen from Iowa and their interpreter. Our government's even lying about that. They're telling you an ISIS terrorist did that. That was one of Abu Muhammad Al Julani's men. And then they say, oh no, he just joined the force. And then they realized right away he was an insider and they were about to sideline him. He'd been working with them for 11 months. About two months prior, they moved him to that unit. And then think about it. If they know your ISIS and an insider, why would they deploy you with the US troops when they came? So anyway, so since then, our government has lied to the American public. That's an ISIS attack. It's not. It's an Al Qaeda attack. And then we've literally carried out strikes on, on ISIS two or three times now. And they're telling the public's in retaliation for that attack when it's Abu Muhammad Al Julani who you got to take out for that attack. But he's our new ally, so we're going to cover up that he's involved in killing American soldiers. And remember, he does that stuff as a test. What can I get away with? What can I get away with? What can I get away with? So he got to think about it if you get away with killing Americans, of course you can go slaughter Kurds. And he knew that, that taught him, go in and get them. And we're allowing it.

[Sean Ryan]

And we will continue to allow it.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah.

[Sean Ryan]

Because that's who we are.

[Sarah Adams]

Our government does not have the moral compass of the American people.

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah, that's no shit, man. What's going on with China?

[Sarah Adams]

And then remember I told you though.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh boy.

[Sarah Adams]

No, it's just a reminder. The head of ISIS is literally harbored in Syria by Abu Mohammed Al Jilani. So anyone saying we're fighting ISIS and the head of ISIS is in Syria, nobody's talking about that. Is feeding you a bunch of shit, that's all. So China's interesting because China, I don't know if you saw the recent national defense strategy, but it's changed.

[Sean Ryan]

Really? How so?

[Sarah Adams]

So China was, was previously kind of viewed as like our number one military threat and they moved it back to strategic competition.

[Sean Ryan]

What?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. So now our biggest military threat is like threats to the US homeland, but China is no longer our number one military threat. So now it's back to deterrence dominance. But it's. So it's from the economic side, they're back to targeting China, which is interesting. And then of course always a cyberpeace. So now with a new strategy, the government's changed. So we're not really focused on kind of one upping the Chinese military. We're focused on economic related things. So which some of these are very, very good. But we still gotta focus on the military. So it's, let's get rid of some of our dependence on China. Right. Let's make stockpiles of rare earth minerals, for example. Let's find different supply routes for maybe AI infrastructure, telecommunications, those type of things. But yeah, so yeah, it's back to economic strategic competition. So that is a big change. I'm surprised not a lot of people picked up on it.

[Sean Ryan]

Actually man, I didn't know anything about that.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, it was just in the last.

[Sean Ryan]

Week or two say what we ought to be focused on is our power, power grid.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah.

[Sean Ryan]

With when it comes to China and hopefully now strategic competition.

[Sarah Adams]

The good thing about the shift in policy, if it's done in the that way, then the focus should be not allowing China to have access to our grid or own ports of the port. So if they really do shift and focus on those things, it will be huge wins. It's just we haven't done that well strategic competition in the past. So I hope someone's gonna change that because if we just go back to the way we used to do it. Well, we are failing.

[Sean Ryan]

JNIM surging in Africa.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. I mean, as you can imagine, I.

[Sean Ryan]

Haven'T heard anything about this. What is this?

[Sarah Adams]

Well, as you know, when everybody focuses one way. Sorry, when everyone focuses one place on terrorism, it's just surgery somewhere else. Right. So J&IM is basically Al Qaeda's main affiliate in North Africa. If you ignore Aqim and Al Shabaab, okay, so it's kind of equal to them, but it's a whole different group. And JNIM is really interesting because it doesn't need as much money as other terrorist groups. They make all their own income. Like they have gold mines. They actually have a tax infrastructure. People have to pay them for protection, almost like if you lived under a mafia. So what they've done is they've been really smart and they targeted what, that kind of the collapsing governments on the weak states. So Mali, Burkina Faso. And then you saw we got kicked out in Niger. So they start now to kind of play around in Niger. So they're slowly having really massive gains in these locations into Al Qaeda. They're viewing it as the caliphate plan. You know, let's take Mali, let's take Burkina Faso. And it's been like a really successful initiative and nobody's paying attention to it. But also, it's very interesting. I want to say it was about four months ago a very famous terrorist showed up in Burkina Faso. His name is Abu Mohammed Al Masri. We talked about him previously. He's the father in law of Hamza Bin Laden. But he's the terrorist that I told you. The US Government believes he's dead. So the terrorists did this really interesting ruse. They. They fed misinformation to us, and Israel ended up carrying out an operation on him in Iran. And they teed up the assassination the terrorists did for the anniversary of the 1998 attack. So August 7th. So think about it. If you kill a terrorist on the exact anniversary of the attack, wouldn't you, as a man with, like, common sense, be like, this seems too perfect? But our government never thought it. So our government has him as dead. So he's alive. So he's running these operations for JNIM from core Al Qaeda in Afghanistan. But he deployed and he's on the ground of Burkina Faso, which is crazy. This is one of the most famous terrorists in the entire world. We aren't even targeting him. And that's why these operations are going so successfully, because he's running it like he was one of the key Masterminds of the 1998 plot. So it's just this frustrating thing. He also got put on and he's now the number two on the military commission for jnim. But think about it. If you're a terrorist and you convince America you're dead, well then no one's collecting on you. And Al Qaeda's done this very, very successfully. I found this other famous terrorist recently. His name's Abu Jihad Al Masri. So you remember when there was the huge airline plot and then we all had to go to like the three ounce liquids, okay. You know, so there was a terrorist that we went after for that, Rasheed Ralph. Okay? So he goes and he's hiding in Waziristan like everyone else, and we bomb him. And when we bomb him, everyone said, hey, we also killed this Abu Jihad Al Masri. He was one of the heads of Al Qaeda's external operations. He didn't die. So that was, I don't know, 10, 15 years ago. So think about it. If you have a head of external operations, a lie for a whole nother decade and you don't know what he's doing, what was he able to succeed at at that time? The government's not collecting on him. What's he even leading? Who's even working with. Where has he been going? Some of these terrorists is really interesting. They have fake documents and they're getting on airplanes and they're traveling all over the Middle East. Some of the United States, top 10 terrorists, like a really good example. His name is Hamza Al Gham. So Hamza Al Ghamdi right now is the head of Al Qaeda's military commission, right? Pretty much.

[Sean Ryan]

I mean, we were printing them passports.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, well, he's flying all over. So he is on the legend broke that right? Yeah, he's on the most. Yeah, so. Well, yeah, so that's one thing. Taliban's making these people passports. But just think about it. Head of Al Qaeda's military commission, one of the top 10 most important terrorists in the world is flying on airplanes. Nobody knows it's him. Like that's how bad the system. So it's not even just that they're making all these passports for terrorists. The senior leaders are traveling around. No one's got a clue. So it's, it's, it's just this super frustrating thing. He used to be Bin Laden's bodyguard. Our government is missing everything, so they think people are dead who aren't. We got senior leaders flying first class around we have groups meeting and our government doesn't even know the two groups even have a relationship. Like, like terrorists have advanced, why we ignored them, and we're really going to be hit hard because of this.

[Sean Ryan]

Somaliland.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, so, so there's a. Obviously everybody's talking about Somalia right now, but Somaliland was really interesting because they're not a recognized country, even though they should be. They're in a somewhat of a democracy. They follow our rules, they keep terrorism out. But Israel decided to recognize them, and then it became a big hoopla. Right.

[Sean Ryan]

So why do you think they decided to recognize them?

[Sarah Adams]

Because where Somaliland is, it's super critical for trade and it's a really great place to have a port. Like, to be honest, we should have a port there. We should have a military base there. And Israel's not the only one. UAE's been trying to make the same deal. So the port matters for the region.

[Sean Ryan]

I don't think they're going to turn it into a beach town like Gaza.

[Sarah Adams]

No, no, it's trade now. Remember, Somalia is corrupt. Terrorists are getting close to taking over, and we can talk about that. And you have no guarantee. If you have access to the port today, you're going to have the access to the port six months ago, six months from now, if Al Shabaab takes over. So you also, if you're a government, you have to start positioning for the next port location. So that's a huge problem. And you have to remember in Somalia, Al Shabaab actually runs some of the ports. So when you pay the port fees to go into that port, you're giving the money to Al Qaeda. So our government can lie all they want about it, but you're funding a terrorist group by just using the port. So anyway, Somaliland is the best regional option if you don't want to use Somalia, because Somalia is this corrupt landscape, as we all know. But as we have been talking about.

[Sean Ryan]

So Al Qaeda use Yemen as well.

[Sarah Adams]

You can use Yemen.

[Sean Ryan]

I mean, I know it's infested, but.

[Sarah Adams]

You would do both. You know, you could stop in Yemen, then you could stop in Somaliland, you know, if you're shipping or something. So you, you would want. I would prefer both if I was running things and making deals for my government. Just FYI now with Somalia. So for the whole last year, Al Qaeda and Al Shabaab has had this operation take Mogadishu. And they've done it very successfully. And nobody's talking about, Remember the Hamza Al Ghamdi who I told you has been traveling all around. He actually went there, I think it was like November 2024. Now made this whole operational plan. And so what they're doing is they're slowly moving in on Mogadishu from every direction, taking cities, taking rotor. So, so if you put a circle around Mogadishu and you're like, where's Al Qaeda and Al Shabaab? The closest point is 10 miles away and then it's about to 40 miles away. So they have encircled the city within 10 miles in some locations, other locations about 40. And so they're going to go in and take Mogadishu. And nobody's really being honest about this. So in about 2022 and 2023, there was huge operations against Al Shabaab and they lost tons of land. In 2025, they regained everything they lost during those counterterrorism operations. So anyway, a lot of people are getting very, very nervous because, you know, locals on the ground are saying it's in within 90 days. Who knows? Al Qaeda's goal is to take it within 2026. It was a two year plan. We're now going in the second year. But as you can imagine, a lot of stuff's happening. Even the government's freaking out and people in the government. So people in the government are literally starting to make deals with Al Shabaab. They're handing off money to them. So some of the money our government's giving to the Somali government is getting like funneled and diverted to Al Shabaab because they're thinking about their future. Right. If Al Shabaab takes this over, if I don't start making a deal with them, I'm dead. So everybody's starting to think, what are we going to do if Al Qaeda takes this country? Sadly. And then people starting to make deals and plans around it. It's a huge problem.

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah, it sounds like it.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, it's a mess. And then there's a whole nother piece now. You know, we have like all this fraud in the United States.

[Sean Ryan]

What fraud?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, I know. And then as you know, a lot of the remittances are going back to Somalia. A lot of people keep saying it's going to Al Shabab. It really isn't. Al Shabab is a multi billion dollar organization, but it's going to like these Somali clans and tribes and even militias. Well, none of them are designated to terrorist organizations.

[Sean Ryan]

Got you.

[Sarah Adams]

So if you don't stop the money here, you're not stopping the money going there because there's no law enforcement or precedents. So it's a crazy thing. So we can't exactly stop the money in the Somalia angle. We really got to end fraud here to deal with this, or our money's just going to keep going there.

[Sean Ryan]

I got news for you, Sarah. Never going to happen.

[Sarah Adams]

I know it's never going to happen. I mean, they build these government programs for fraud because also the people running them, them commit fraud against them.

[Sean Ryan]

Sadly, no government's a fraud operation.

[Sarah Adams]

I agree.

[Sean Ryan]

Give me some of the craziest things that have happened to you over the past year.

[Sarah Adams]

Oh, my gosh, that's a tough one. So. Well, one of the funniest things is, so I have a friend from Iraq, and he reaches out to me one day and he said, hey, did you know Hezbollah in Iraq has a bounty on you? And I was like, what? Because I. I know people after me. Al Qaeda's after me, is KP is after me. I was like, hezbollah in Iraq. I still don't know why. And he said, yeah, but it's even funnier. So there's a bounty, but then they also have a deal. If you want to collect the bounty, you can come to Iraq and have citizenship in a certain province. I was like, wow, this is sounding more appealing to somebody because, you know, you gotta make sure they're gonna pay you. So anyway, so the funny part is, by the end of the year, it kinda kept going like a lotto, and so it's now like $350,000. So Boone's been joking. Like, when it hits up to a million, we might want to think about this, like, frauding it. Frauding it. Right? Because, yeah. So anyway, so I have this massive growing bounty, and if you want to live in Iraq, you can collect on it. So, I mean, it's kind of a nice perk.

[Sean Ryan]

You don't seem worried.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, I have worse people. Remember, the number two of Al Qaeda's military commission is trying to kill me. I think that's a little worse than Hezbollah and Iraq. No offense, Aizabala. So that was a funny thing. And then I was in an ISKP video, which was super funny.

[Sean Ryan]

Can we see the clip?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, I'll get it to you. Well, remember when I went on Chad's show, Robicha? They took the clip of me talking, but because I'm a girl, I'm like. I'm like, shaded out. So I had no idea as an ISIS video. And then this investigator in Netherlands, Peter, reaches out and said, hey, you know, you're in A ISIS video because I never would have found it. My face is blurred out. But yeah, it's super funny. So the funny part is ISIS put the video out and they didn't know I was doing the opera. Remember I said, oh, I did a whole year investigation. So they put this video out with me in it, which legitimizes me think about it. And then like a few months later I released my whole ISKP report. So anyway, they now do have like monthly updates on my information going out. So it's super funny. But. But thanks for legitimizing me isis. So that was a really funny one that occurred. And then so I made an off collar joke about India and I got banned.

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah, I saw that.

[Sarah Adams]

So. So I mean, I guess I'll do it again, but I don't know, do you want, I don't know if you want your YouTube channel banned. So maybe I don't repeat the joke.

[Sean Ryan]

Tell me offline.

[Sarah Adams]

Okay, I'll tell you offline.

[Sean Ryan]

I don't want to get banned in India.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, it was just a joke about their air force. But anyway it was. And it wasn't even that bad of a joke joke. But anyway, so I made a joke and that's all I did. And then I get a message from Twitter that India's like Minister of like information, you know, the official title, has banned you in their country. So yeah, if you're in India, you can no longer see my content on X.

[Sean Ryan]

Wait, are. Okay, what was the joke? So it was this, it was a joke about their air force and they banned you?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. So India's been having a problem where they, they crash a lot of fighter jets or they come down and I mean it even happened in like just a. Exhibition. So, so anyway, it's this com. This joke. I'm sorry. So somebody was talking about Bagram and about us coming in, bombing, bombing Bagram. I said we're not planning to do that, but there's a huge attack being planned in India. So India will likely in the future come and bomb Bagram in, you know, as is retaliation if they don't crash their planes on the way. And then that was my one joke. And that's the only thing bad I said. So the funny thing is. So I got banned in India for saying that.

[Sean Ryan]

Don't worry India, we're not much better. I mean, just look at Boeing.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, we have more.

[Sean Ryan]

They're killing all the whistleblowers and I.

[Sarah Adams]

Talk all the time.

[Sean Ryan]

The whistleblower shouldn't have said that. The whistleblowers are mysteriously dying.

[Sarah Adams]

They're dying of unforeseen circumstances. Plus I talk every day about Al Qaeda taking down 12 airplanes in the United States. And I'm not banned in the United States. But. Yeah, so anyway. Yeah, but that was really, really. It was kind of funny because I was like, wait, did this come out of. So we had to go figure out because it said we can't tell you why. And so I was like, I haven't even posted about India. And so. Yeah, and then that it was. That it was just an off color joke, but keep your planes up, man.

[Sean Ryan]

And your phone got bugged.

[Sarah Adams]

No, it wasn't bugged.

[Sean Ryan]

You're on your way. You're on your way to getting banned.

[Sarah Adams]

No, it wasn't bugged. I actually was gonna. So they were bugging me but, like bothering me.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, shit. I was gonna say, good thing I started any rumors. Good thing we got you that glacier phone.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, good thing. No, so the thing is.

[Sean Ryan]

So you mean annoying you?

[Sarah Adams]

Yes. Yeah. Okay, well, the funny part is, so as you know, I've already told you, I had these meetings with FBI, you know, the Rhine Routh team and then the January 6th expert and whomever. And then I always randomly have sent stuff to FBI's Benghazi team of rock stars. So FBI has perfect access to me. They've been to my house. But anyway, so in May, FBI shows up. Remember I was working at the Air Force at my bosses in D.C. my boss's bosses. Like people who might not even know who I am. Right. And they show up and they're like, oh, we're having an issue with Sarah Adams. We want you to pull her clearance. And so it's my senior boss. And that senior boss literally is in charge of innovation.

[Sean Ryan]

Okay, so did you get your clearance pulled?

[Sarah Adams]

No, my cleansing get pulled. So I'll tell you, it's a funny story.

[Sean Ryan]

I was going to welcome you to the club.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. No, so. So he's smart and pulls in a lawyer. So him and a lawyer sit down with the FBI and they're concerned, of course, and they're like, can you give tell us why? So they had nothing. They said, oh, we heard she said on a podcast she didn't share something with us. And my senior leader is like, I know this girl has shared so many things with the government. So it's funny, they come back to me after and they're like, can you tell us every agency you shared with in the last like year or two? And I went through, it was like 15 organizations in the US government I have shared information with in the last two years. So anyway, they have this whole meeting. FBI. I can't say anything clear to them. They're asking to get my clearance pulled. My senior. So. So my senior leaders then tell my boss, and they're like. They're like, it seemed political. Like, does someone not like her? What's going on? And so my boss tells me. I'm like, it's got to be Sebastian Gorka.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, man.

[Sarah Adams]

I mean, who else. Who else is going to the FBI? Because remember he was telling the National Security Council that I'm on drugs, that I'm putting out misinformation? He told them the Scott Mann was like, a financial scammer. So he's made up all these weird rules. So, yeah, so it was really funny. So I told my boss, that's the.

[Sean Ryan]

Only guy just can't win. So I remember what he did to me.

[Sarah Adams]

It could have been.

[Sean Ryan]

Remember what he did to me with the Sam Shoemake thing?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, yeah.

[Sean Ryan]

He made it sound like we were making all this up. It was a big psyop. And then the. And then the FBI comes out and says the fucking email was real. And then that Ryan Macbeth dude, like, I think he was an army intel analyst, apologizes to me and says, I fucked up. I was wrong in. Sebastian Gorka. What's his position again?

[Sarah Adams]

Head of counterterrorism.

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah, head of counterterrorism. Now he's got a new fucking reposts. Reposts. A post of a man who apologized to me for being wrong in. And that's who's running the counterterrorism?

[Sarah Adams]

No, but Sebastian Gork has a new job. I totally forgot.

[Sean Ryan]

He's also the head get promoted.

[Sarah Adams]

He's ahead of, like, aviation threats against the US Government or something.

[Sean Ryan]

We got to put the tweet up. He tweets this shit, like, out there to me, like I have a fucking psyop or some shit.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, yeah. He posted this new job update on LinkedIn, so.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, we'll put this stuff up.

[Sarah Adams]

So now I want to say, for the record, I don't know for sure if this is Gorka, but Gorka did tell people I was on drugs, so that's fact. So it still could be Patel, because he's so thin skin.

[Sean Ryan]

You're such a drug addict.

[Sarah Adams]

So. Yeah, I know. Me.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy shit.

[Sarah Adams]

So anyway, so, yeah, so my bosses decided it was political, so they kind of left me alone on it. But it was really funny because they went overboard, like, oh, we should Deal with stuff. So then they were like, oh, with your foreign contacts, you have to submit every foreign contact who's a dual national. So that was, like, some work. But anyway. So, yeah, it was. So nothing came of it. But it was like I said, FBI's DC office showed up at mine. I'm like, they know where my house is. They've been to my house. Why did not just show up at my house? So they were trying to, like, shake me down a bit. Another thing is, multiple times FBI's tried to come at me from different directions, as you can imagine, for our sources.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, I would imagine.

[Sarah Adams]

Which we won't give them because they'll get them killed because they're idiots. But usually it's a ploy for our sources as well.

[Sean Ryan]

Geez.

[Sarah Adams]

But anyway, yeah, so, no, I didn't get my clearance pulled, but I don't even need it now. I work for the Sean Ryan Show. I should get it pulled so we can do an episode on it.

[Sean Ryan]

You gotta have a clearance to work here. No, this is my favorite thing in the outline.

[Sarah Adams]

I think, oh, no.

[Sean Ryan]

You beat up a cop and some people at a hospital. What is that?

[Sarah Adams]

See, this is the problem, people. When you get hired somewhere. So I got hired, and then you brought on someone to work in my team. She's my producer, Diana. So Diana's like, oh, I want to get to know you. Which I never should have believed this. And she's like, film it. So, you know, film it and talk about yourself. And so it had all this stuff in it. So I bring up this story to her, and then now I have to talk about it, because I filmed it. Because even if I don't say it now, you're just gonna roll the clip. And so I don't trust you guys anymore. So now I gotta tell this story because I told it to Diana, who I love. But so, no. So I did beat up a cop, but it wasn't exactly illegal. So what was happening is it was actually a medical problem. So I was at CIA. So this was maybe like, when you're in CIA, it's like, post bin. Post Osama bin bin Laden. Or before. So about three weeks after we captured Osama bin Laden. So we have a timeline. And so I'm at work and I go to my boss and said I'm feeling really weird. Like my arm's not working and my head feels strange. And she's like, oh, you need to go home. So I go home, and I'm at home, and then I feel it. Okay. And Two hours later, like, parts of my body aren't even working. So I was like, I better go over to one of those clinic places. So I go to the clinic, and the lady's like, it sounds like you're having a stroke. I'm like, I'm not having a stroke. And she's like, well, it's gonna be. So she sends me to a hospital. I spend four days there. And they say, it's not a stroke. You were attacked by migraines. I kid you not. I did tell you one story, though. Can I do a side story?

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah.

[Sarah Adams]

So, okay, so I won't say the hospital. Cause I don't want you to get sued again.

[Sean Ryan]

So every time a FedEx letter shows up, I tell the team like, oh, shit, we're getting sued.

[Sarah Adams]

You'll be sued. You'll be sued after this.

[Sean Ryan]

Yep, we're getting sued.

[Sarah Adams]

You'll be su. After this one. So I was like, I'm just never gonna go to the hospital again. Well, I'm doing my Benghazi investigation, okay? And there's this terrorist, and he's an Al Qaeda member, longtime member of Al Qaeda. He lives in Bosnia, he's Libyan, and he's the guy doing all the travel reservations to bring the terrorists that are injured in Libya to Europe. Because if you're injured in Libya and you're a terrorist, you're not going to go to the doctor in Libya. You're going to go to, like, France or Germany and go to get real medical care. Because, you know, Al Qaeda and ISIS get these poor. So he flies Al Qaeda and ISIS members to Europe. So I did some looking into him. And as one of his brothers works for the Libyan government. His other brother works in that hospital.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy shit.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, his brother literally works in the hospital. Who.

[Sean Ryan]

Shit.

[Sarah Adams]

Who got me wrong, by the way. So I would not go to the hospital. I won't say the name. So anyway, I go home. It's a few days later, and I decided to go to Target, because nothing else to do in Northern Virginia. So I go to Target, and I'm actually talking to Boone because he's in. Aiden, he's in Yemen, right? So I'm on the phone with him, and all of a sudden I say to him, I don't know where I am. And he goes, you're going to Target. I said, fundamentally, I know I should know where I am, but I have no clue. He's like, pull over. So I pull over into, like, a business parking lot. And so this is end of May, beginning of June after bin Laden. And I start doing snow angels in the parking lot. There's no snow. So someone in the office building sees me.

[Sean Ryan]

Maybe Sebastian Gorka was right.

[Sarah Adams]

No, no. I'll tell you, there's a policeman assessment coming along here. So I'm doing snow angels. Apparently, I don't remember any of this. I'll tell you the parts I remember. And then, so the cops get called, and this cop shows up who squared away because they thought maybe it was someone on drugs. He's like, she's definitely not on drugs. He can't control me because I beat him up. So he calls it backups, which is like some padded van. So I do remember this part. So I remember, like, some people, like, shoving me in a van, but that's, like, all I remember. So in my head, I'm probably thinking is, like, terrorists or something. So they shove me in this van, and then they bring me to the local hospital, which is the county over for me. So luckily, it's not the hospital that Terror's brother works in. So they go to this hospital, and I beat up four people going into the hospital hospital. So they end up putting me under. And I had meningitis. Yeah. So I had limes. And if you don't deal with limes, they can become energetic. So this is something I learned, didn't know. And they didn't test for Lymes in the county I lived in, but they figured this out, the next county does. So anyway, long story short, so I'm under for about two weeks. Okay. So I come to. I get a visit. Someone from my work comes to visit. My mom tells me who's visiting. And then people start stopping by, Sean. So I have no idea. I beat up a cop or these orderlies. And so all these people start coming in who work in the hospital. I was super famous in the hospital. And they all come in and I find out they all rewatched me again and again on the surveillance video in the hospital beating people up. So they're all like, oh, you're famous here. We're all so happy you're okay. Oh, we all want to meet you. So everything in the hospital want to meet me because I beat up all these people in the hospital. And they all watched the video. Oh, shit. Oh, my God, it was so embarrassing. And then the other thing is, like, my mom didn't bring me bottoms. So I'm walking around the hospital famous, with my butt hanging out everywhere. I'm like, mom, like, I'm out of it. Put some boxers on me. So anyway, so. So. Oh, so no, it's even funnier. So my mom. So the cop takes my phone, and Boone is on it. And so Boone's like, I'm useless. I'm in Yemen. So he's like, call your mom. So the cop calls my mom and tells him I'm there. So my mom gets to Virginia and doesn't know how to get in my house. She literally calls the cop I beat up. Can you break me into my daughter's house? And he broke her in the back window. Holy shit. So good cop.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, man.

[Sarah Adams]

He really the cop. Actually, later on when I came to, my doctor said the cop saved my life. I would have been dead within 30 minutes if he wouldn't have. If he would have made a different decision, like, brought me to the police station. So the funny part is, so I'm in the hospital, like two weeks, and then I leave, but it's like a tbi, so I can't. I can think fine, but my body. So if I could, say, grab the water. So I would say it, but my hand would, like, would not do it or something. So for two weeks, I'm like, crawling up and down the stairs in my house because I'm afraid to walk because there'll be times the foot and knee don't do what it's supposed to. So I'm like. Like home. I can't drive. And then I'm finally able to drive and stuff. So I go into CIA two weeks part time. So this is where it even gets funnier. So I go in two weeks, and then I finally can go back full time. I'm normal again. And so I go back in that week and they say, hey, we need to deploy people to Pakistan. Because after bin Laden, you know, that's when they sent all those people home. We need volunteers for Pakistan. So of course I said, I'll go to Pakistan. So my boss then gets this thing that I volunteer for Pakistan. And she's like, dude, you were just. You're just gone three months with meningitis. You're going to Pakistan. And she said, you can't go to Pakistan. You have a medical problem. I said, first off, my doctor was Pakistani, so I'll be just fine. And I said, and then I used the rules of CIA against her. Remember the CIA? You go for your physical every. What is it, five years? And I said, I'm still my physical window. You can't stop me from going. So then I deployed to Pakistan. Yeah. So I worked for a couple weeks and Then I went to Pakistan. Yeah, it was crazy. So.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, shit. That's awesome.

[Sarah Adams]

I beat up a cop and did not get in trouble for it. And he broke into my house. I actually. If he's watching this, I'd like him to reach out to me because I have no idea who he is.

[Sean Ryan]

I hope he does. I'll bet that happens.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. I'll come brief your department on the homeland threat.

[Sean Ryan]

That would be cool.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah.

[Sean Ryan]

All right. What is. What's this Disney thing? Disney doing a Disney show or something?

[Sarah Adams]

Oh, yes.

[Sean Ryan]

Well, now you're like, oh, yeah.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, it wasn't Disney. Disney pissed up. You know, I worked at Disney in college.

[Sean Ryan]

I didn't.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, yeah. That was my job. I was like that annoying person when you walked in the gate and I took your family photo.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy shit, man.

[Sarah Adams]

Do you have any of those?

[Sean Ryan]

I don't, uh.

[Sarah Adams]

Oh, you're one of those people. Don't buy them. We wake up a mission, man. You're one of those people that don't me through college. So no. So, gosh, maybe a year, year and a half ago now, I got rec Contacted because there was a CIA series being put together and it's called Inside CIA Secret and Lies. And it was going through a number of different CIA operations. And they were bringing the different CIA officers who worked them to explain to the public how the operations worked. So I got called about a terrorist named Moolah Dadouda Lang. I think you know him. He was famous for anyone who worked in Afghanistan. So I'm in that episode. So I'm not like a star of the show or anything. So I'm in the episode on him. But it's really cool. Cause it's about the people who did it, did spyops, which I love, spy ops. So anyway, that comes out the end of February and Disney and Hulu picked it up. So it should be airing on that. Yeah. So it'd be fun. The funny thing is, and I hope I make him.

[Sean Ryan]

When'd you say it comes out?

[Sarah Adams]

I hope I make him worried. I think it's February 26th. It's super soon.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy shit. That's awesome.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. So the funny part is. So I'm in the episode for Moolah dadu da leg, but I'm actually working and targeting his son right now.

[Sean Ryan]

Wow.

[Sarah Adams]

So I wasn't doing it when I filmed it. So his son's name is Ray Bar and his son is working on the U. S. Homeland plot because we killed his father. A lot of people are forgetting the second generation is coming after us. And there's. In Afghanistan, you know, there's like, core Al Qaeda, right? Like, the bin Laden is the leadership, and then there's AQIS is the group that targets India. But then. Then they made a whole new branch. It's called Al Qaeda in Afghanistan. And you know, when you hear. I bet legend says it like, Al Qaeda's making all these camps in Panjshir, that's the element of Al Qaeda building all the terrorist camps in Panjshir because they want to kill all the Tajiks and push them out and take Panjshir. But he's in that group of Al Qaeda, which is interesting. So we don't even. Our government doesn't even work on that branch of Al Qaeda yet. And it's been operational for years. So anyway, yeah, so. So, yeah, I work against the sun.

[Sean Ryan]

Wow.

[Sarah Adams]

Which is funny. Can't get rid of these people. I'm almost 50, and I'm still working these fools. So I'm gonna retire soon. Jeez.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, man. How's Masood doing? So, I mean, I've not heard anything out of the nrf.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, I mostly track on Amrullah Soleil because he's the one that kind of puts out the intel side of things. I'm less on the fighter side now. Now there's two units on the ground in Afghanistan, so there's the NRF and then the Afghanistan Freedom Front, aff, and they're the two that are, like, blowing up Taliban checkpoints and those type of things. So they have constant, ongoing operations. And they sometimes are doing joint. You might not. They might say this was NRF or aff, but it might be a joint operation. So they're doing constant operations. But it's like 1256 Taliban. It's not like they're hitting the GDI headquarters or something. So they're still moving along. But as you can imagine, the resistance has to have some sort of external backing, even if it's like a Tajikistan. And it just doesn't happen because you cannot take on the Taliban with being backed by the US Government. We give the Taliban so much money, so much legitimacy. No one's going to take up the Taliban until we cut off the money. And they all know this.

[Sean Ryan]

I mean, if they hit us in the home plan plot and the Taliban takes credit, we would still fund them.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, but they won't take credit. AQAP is going to take credit, and we're just going to cover it. Bomb Yemen. Yeah, but we'll still fund them. I mean, Hamas all those leaders of Hamas, remember, they're like, this Hamas leader lives in Qatar and he's worth 30 billion and this one's 8 billion. They are worth that much money because US government put that money into them. Like, it's like, guys, Hamas didn't make that money on their own. It's all money for the US Government going into them. So it's a very frustrating thing. Like, I just wish I want to stop every penny to Afghanistan because, as you know, if you say, oh, I'm going to stop this bucket, they'll be like, well, we got to do humanitarian. We got to do this. And once we hand them the money, we don't know where it goes. So that's why it has to be like a dead zero. Somalia's got to be zero. Like Gaza zero. And now we're gonna invest in. Have you seen the Gaza plan?

[Sean Ryan]

Looks like they're gonna turn it into a resort.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah, besides that. I mean. Yeah, that. So when you look at the. There's a whole PowerPoint. I actually wish I had the numbers off to my top, my head. So there's one PowerPoint about how much it's gonna cost. It's like billions. There's billions for security, there's billions to build the buildings, blah, blah, blah, blah. But what I'm hearing out of terrorist circles, so our government. So in that briefing, I think Kushner, but also Witkoff is saying it. They're saying we're going to disarm Hamas in 100 days. Have you heard this?

[Sean Ryan]

I've heard a lot of things that never happened.

[Sarah Adams]

So this just recently came up. So we're going to disarm Hamas in 100 days. So there's chatter that at the 60 day mark, there's going to be a huge government press release and say, okay, Hamas, you have 60, 60 days. Well, what they're doing behind the scenes is they're telling Hamas, hey, we're going to roll you into the security forces, into the military, thousands of you. So we're going to pretend we took the weapons from Hamas and we're going to make them the heads of the police and the heads of the military, and they're going to run all that in Libya like we did in Tripoli. So in Tripoli, in. I'm sorry, that was Gaza. In Tripoli and Libya, we did the exact same thing. We let Al Qaeda take over all those institutions. Institutions. And lead them. So we're doing the exact same thing in Gaza. Hamas is going to run the entire security sector and no one's Being honest about it. So we're going to tell American people, we disarm them, it's peace and we're going to give them a nicer place, put billions of dollars of investment into them, and we're going to make a terrorist group a thousand times more powerful.

[Sean Ryan]

The whole thing was a real estate play, wasn't it?

[Sarah Adams]

It, I mean, it's a whole lot of things. I mean, remember we can't ignore the fact this was a planned Al Qaeda Iranian attack. And remember that was a dress rehearsal for the homeland attack. And I think everybody keeps forgetting that because this anti Israel stuff, what they did in October 7th, they plan to do here worse. And we have to take that serious because Israel did not take any of this serious. They got some of the info and I know some people who gave them info about the terrorist trading in Afghanistan, but they thought it was a smaller incursion, one they could take care of. They never thought, you know, it ended up being about 7,500 terrorists that infiltrated at one time. 7,500. And we know we have 18,000 here. So we have a lot of Americans. Not taking that attack serious when that was a first phase in our homeland attack is another phase of this. And there's other phases like India's after us. But these are massive scale attacks being planned and nobody is taking it to the terrorists because they're focused on the, they're talking about Israel or you know, it's, it's like, I mean when you.

[Sean Ryan]

See what, what happened there, it's pretty fucking bad. I mean we spent a long time in war zones, right? I've never seen destruction like that. The entire place is gone.

[Sarah Adams]

They did the exact same thing. So that's how you got rid of Al Qaeda and ISIS in Benghazi. Exact same operation Israel then Israel did on this larger scale. You do neighborhood by neighborhood, you make them evacuate and you go in and this is unfortunately how you have to get the terrorists. We don't have the stomach to go after terrorists that way.

[Sean Ryan]

Is that how they're gonna do it here? So take it neighborhood by neighborhood. I'm just telling you everybody. And just decimate the whole fucking country.

[Sarah Adams]

I'm just telling you, I'm all about killing terrorists. There's a lot of misinformation coming out of Gaza. Ton of those videos are from Syria. Remember I worked Syria, a ton of Gaza videos I've seen. I'm like, guys, this is Syria 2012, 2013, 2014. There is a lot of misinformation on Gaza There's a ton of misinformation currently out of Syria. So you also have to really be careful with this misinformation. Especially those numbers are not. There is not 60,000 children killed. So we have to be honest about who's also feeding us misinformation, because that benefit fits the terrorists. Remember, the only people winning in all this is a terrorist. Hamas is getting more. Muslim Brotherhood is getting more popular. Al Qaeda got Syria, Taliban got Afghanistan. Every year the people winning are the terrorists. And nobody's talking about. They're talking about Israel.

[Sean Ryan]

Even if you're right, even if you're right, we're not a serious country because we're fucking paying the terrorists. So you can't tell me that going and carpet bombing Gaza is going to solve shit when we're sitting here. I mean, that's where the flag came from. From Legend $87 million a week to the fucking Taliban. How much does Somalia like? All these, like, we can't just go in there and fucking carpet Bob everybody.

[Sarah Adams]

But they.

[Sean Ryan]

Like, we're not even. We're not even being serious. We're not even being serious. We're still fucking paying these people to kill us.

[Sarah Adams]

I know, but the end of the day, you also. So if you're American, they say you can't go into Afghanistan after 9, 11. Like, who are you to say Israel can't go in and hunt a 7,500 terrorists are very hard to find. Like, who are you to say you can't go in and get the people who did this to you? Like, that's another issue. Like, we can't be. Like, we can't on one side do what we want and then be the morality police on the other side because we don't like the person doing it. I had this problem so much, as you can imagine, in Libya, because, remember, the person who went after my attackers is a warlord. According to the press. He's not. He loves his country. He's a patriot to his country. General Hafta. Well, General Hofstar went in heavy, obviously, trying not to kill civilians, but he went in heavy on those terrorists, and there's people who have him up for war crimes for it. Well, I don't think he committed one damn war crime. Right? He was very effective. His city was controlled by terrorist groups, and now there's not even an indoctrination camp in the entire city. That's how successful he was. But in the icc, see, he's got charges for war crimes. So that's what I'm saying. Everybody has a different view of how this is done, and everybody says their way is better, but there's only very few victories. He's a victory. So what do you call that then? Because honestly, at the end of the day, the thing I care about most with terrorists is you don't get the second and third generation. In Benghazi, we don't have to worry. Now there's a second or third generation. He ended that. We're not ending that. Afghanistan second generation is a thousand times bigger than the first generation. We're screwed with what's coming out of Afghanistan. We are so screwed. What's coming. It's so much bigger than it was on 9 11. So you have to sometimes do things with a heavy hand. Now, with Hamas, you can't do with a heavy hand because half the international community supports them, backs them, finances them, funds them. Remember, Hamas has been.

[Sean Ryan]

And you're saying we're putting them in charge of shit.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, also. And Hamas has been reestablishing and adapting a dozen camps in Afghanistan. So they're in Afghanistan camps training. No one's bombing them. So the problem with Hamas is they get so much support from the international community, they're only going to be stronger and more powerful. Like, we're not going to be able to get rid of Hamas because even.

[Sean Ryan]

The fact that you're saying, you know, like, it's just went in there. We did that. We decimated the place. You're in your mind, it's justified because.

[Sarah Adams]

It'S not as decimated as you think. A lot of that is.

[Sean Ryan]

So we go in there, we do this shit, we fuck all these kids up. Up and innocent people. And then we put the people that we went in to go kill and Destroy that did October 7th in charge of the place. So what? So we can do it again? Was that on purpose? So we can do it again.

[Sarah Adams]

A lot of our government is pro Islamist. I know it's a bad way to say pro Muslim Brotherhood. And as long as Muslim Brotherhood puts money in the pockets of our politicians, we're always going to. You have these deals. You got to remember these kids in Gaza, Hamas took over in 2006. Their entire education system is terrorist training. Like that generation, the second and third generation in Palestine, you're screwed already. Like, did you see any plans from Kushner then for de radicalization programs? Zero. Like, we have people making decisions on what to do in these places that don't even understand terrorists, terrorism. They don't even understand the. The people there. And what's going to happen and what they're going to do. That's why Egypt, Jordan don't want.

[Sean Ryan]

They don't give a fuck because it's beachfront property.

[Sarah Adams]

It's about money. Yeah. It's all. Remember the terrorism fight made people a ton of money. We were done in Afghanistan in two months. We should have pulled out of Afghanistan. Two months later, we were done. We've toppled the Afghan government. Bin Laden moved to Pakistan. There was zero reason to stay in Afghanistan one more day later. But it made people a lot of money.

[Sean Ryan]

All right, I got you something. I forgot to give you.

[Sarah Adams]

You got me something?

[Sean Ryan]

Yeah, yeah.

[Sarah Adams]

What's this? I don't recognize this bag.

[Sean Ryan]

That's right. Something new.

[Sarah Adams]

You know, somebody made a comment in one of my posts about s', mores, and I thought it was code. I was like, I don't know what the Shawn Rhines s' mores are. So I'm not gonna respond. I'm trying it. Oh, wait a minute.

[Sean Ryan]

It's like crack.

[Sarah Adams]

Oh. I work for Shan Ry now. I can have drugs. So you know what's funny? I. For my birthday one year, I went to Peru and did the whole Machu Picchu thing. And they give you a drink, and I didn't know the drink was like cocaine or whatever. So I did have cocaine when I was at the CIA, but not purposefully.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, shit. What do you think about the Savannah Syndrome stuff?

[Sarah Adams]

I know. Very concerned. This is good. I think one of your interviews got hit with some Havana syndrome. Do you know about that? We'll do that again. One of your interviews.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, yeah, that Mark.

[Sarah Adams]

No, no, no, not Mark. One of your actual interviews. The one you did in Vienna. I think you guys got hit by Havana Syndrome.

[Sean Ryan]

Why do you think that?

[Sarah Adams]

I'll tell you off record, by someone in your crew that I thought got hit on the team.

[Sean Ryan]

Someone in my crew was someone with.

[Sarah Adams]

You then when you did Massoud. I think it was a target on Massoud. Anyway, Havana syndrome's real. Very concerning. As you saw, the oldest person with Havana syndrome just died.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, I didn't see that.

[Sarah Adams]

Oh, yeah, he died like a week ago. He's had it since the late 90s.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah.

[Sean Ryan]

So did you always think this was a real thing?

[Sarah Adams]

100%. Because I know people with Havana Syndrome. And the thing is, you have to remember, Havana Syndrome isn't something that just affects everybody. It's targeted at the best and brightest in our government. And it's only really been targeted certain places. Right? We got Cuba, Vienna, D.C. d.C. And I've always thought it was Russia. You know, even when I went. Remember how I worked at the airlines for a few years, I went work JetBlue. And JetBlue was using one of the hotels that I knew agency people are targeting. And I told them, I said, I believe in Havana Syndrome. I'm very concerned about this. I don't want any of your crew members being targeted, being near them. And they actually banned the hotel from use. So they listened to me and cared and don't put their people in that hotel, which is what everybody should do. You should care about your people. Our government is not caring about our people and they're putting them back in these environments. And then someone else gets hit with it and someone else gets hit with it and someone else.

[Sean Ryan]

Sir, if you want to know what the government thinks about our people, just look at the veteran population. I know.

[Sarah Adams]

So I'm very concerned about Havana Syndrome because like I said, it's so easy to take out the best people that way and there's no repercussions. Our government's never done anything against Russia for it.

[Sean Ryan]

I thought it was always questionable. And then this Venezuela thing. Would Trump call it the discombobulator?

[Sarah Adams]

The discombobulator, yeah. I don't know if the discombobulates Havana Stream because remember, we have things like.

[Sean Ryan]

Sounds like an energy weapon, though.

[Sarah Adams]

Well, we have super high frequency things, you know, like, I don't know, if someone tries to go maybe on a nuke base or something. You know, we have, you know, the super high things and then you, you could use on a crowd to protesters.

[Sean Ryan]

And then they, I mean, a lot of the, When I did the, when I did the anti piracy, those things, the poor, the poor Brits that were on other chips, we had guns, they have like little, little satellite things that'll blast you with a sound wave. It didn't work well for him back then.

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. So the sound waves have always existed in some form. I mean, did Trump use Havana Syndrome? Who knows? But it's. Most of the community believes it exists. The problem is the CIA has not given up a lot of the information they know about it. There's not like a joint community effort to really solve it. And because the government hasn't wanted to be honest about it, I swear, sometimes I think it's so they don't have to pay people. It's like it just continues. So you have to worry. I had a friend decide not to go to Vienna because they're like, I don't want to go serve there. For two years and risk Cavana syndrome. So it's a frustrating thing, too, because often I know people who left the CIA because they didn't want to risk cabana syndrome. I know people in the CIA who their whole life and career was ended because they have it.

[Sean Ryan]

Wow.

[Sarah Adams]

Because it affects your central nervous system. And if it's really extreme, like, you can't really, really think. You have trouble trying to talking and walking, like people are in disability from it.

[Sean Ryan]

Did the guy die from Havana syndrome?

[Sarah Adams]

Yeah. The problem is with Havana Syndrome, it'll then affect you in other ways. It gives you cancers and stuff like that. And I think he died from one of the cancers from his Havana syndrome.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy shit.

[Sarah Adams]

So. And that. That's a whole nother thing. How many cancers we have in the military and the CIA. I mean, it's astronomical. If anyone sat down and put it together. And then what's the. Where did all the cancers come from? Because the percentage is more whites who are higher than the normal Americans living in their towns.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, I remember being in Kabul in the wintertime and, you know, they burn tires and shit and anything they could find to keep warm. And I remember just spitting in my sink and my spit was gray. And I was like, I know tons.

[Sarah Adams]

Of people who's dead from cancer. And I'm in my 40s, 40s, and they're in their 40s.

[Sean Ryan]

Oh, man.

[Sarah Adams]

And we had a younger.

[Sean Ryan]

You worry about that stuff.

[Sarah Adams]

CIA girl died. She was like my age. I don't know her, but she's friends with my. Another family. She died of Havana syndrome, I think, last year.

[Sean Ryan]

Holy. I didn't realize people were dying from this.

[Sarah Adams]

Yep, yep. Yeah.

[Sean Ryan]

So are you gonna do an episode on that?

[Sarah Adams]

I can do an episode syndrome. Love to.

[Sean Ryan]

That will be interesting. We got one coming up. Up pretty soon that's going to be really good.

[Sarah Adams]

Oh, you bring someone on who has it. Okay, good, good.

[Sean Ryan]

Yep. But. Well, Sarah, as always, fascinating interview, unfortunately, enraging too, but, man, thank you for coming. Thank you for all the info. And we'll be watching the watch floor, so tune in.
