To deal with the invasion of his ICE agents, his CBP agents, and potentially.

A (8:31)

Of federalized National Guard who don't know anything. Yeah, he's attacking these guys. He would go on in that interview to impugn Ice Age and suggest that they're rampantly breaking the law, that they're racist, that they're targeting people on the basis of their skin color, and that they should not in any way be enforcing the law. And in fact, we're getting to just absolutely ludicrous levels here. Now, what you have are Democrats who are threatening to arrest ICE agents for doing their jobs. We are. Are we in an insurrection? Are we? I'm seeing in the chat people say this is like civil War stuff. Yeah, yeah. Once again the Democrats on the wrong side of the Civil War. Once again the Democrats staging an insurrection. Once again rejecting unity in the United States and the supremacy of the federal government to enforce the law. The neo Confederates of the 21st century are up to their old tricks. Dan Goldman is a Democrat, member of Congress, the Levi Strauss era, and he is calling on the New York City Police Department to begin arresting ICE agents for doing their jobs. Now pay attention to this because he dresses it up in the language of, oh, if they do something illegal. Well, good news, they're not doing things that are illegal. They're taking people into custody, which is their legal right to do. And if you guys had a real case against them, we'd know about it. You don't. These dudes, these men and women, these patriots, are doing the job that we voted for them to do, that the law requires them to do. You're here's Dan Goldman being an insurrectionist.

B (10:09)

I sent a letter last week to NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch to warn her about what is likely coming to New York City because we've seen it around the country. A couple of weeks ago, a woman named Monica came to my office, fled to my office across the street with her two young children after she was assaulted by an ICE officer in this building. She hit the back of her head. She had a huge bump on her head. She had to go to the hospital.

C (10:41)

Democratic Congressman Dan Goldman says the ICE agents acted illegally. In a letter, Goldman asked Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch to arrest and even charge federal agents who break New York's laws, saying, quote, I write to request that the New York City Police Department be prepared to strictly enforce state and local laws in order to hold federal agents accountable for any unlawful actions they engage in, including potentially through arrest and prosecution for felony violations.

A (11:11)

So New York, the latest location where this is happening, this is a. There's a push for this in places like Illinois, Chicago, and there's a push for this in places like San Francisco in California, where Democrat officials there are also attempting the same thing. Can we start arresting ICE agents is what they're suggesting. That federal law enforcement will be placed in state custody for doing the job again, what you're witnessing, they don't want to call it this, but this is what it is. It's an insurrection on the part of these Democrats. It's an insurrection. It's the rejection of the will of the American people. It's a push for disunity. It is the advancement of chaos. It's the enabling of threats against ICE agents is the justification of treating them like the enemy. And they want to put handcuffs on these guys. All right, well, there's a message coming out of the Trump administration about this right now. There's. There's a couple messages. 1. First and foremost, President Trump has a message for. For Dan Goldman and all of these Democrats. Here's President Trump reacting to Dan Goldman saying that ICE agents need to be arrested. Here he has cut six. What's your reaction to Representative Dan Goldman calling on NYPD to arrest ICE agents?

D (12:26)

Well, you know, I know Dan, and Dan's a loser. You understand? He's. He's a guy that doesn't have what it takes. He's been trying so hard, and they're exhausted. I mean, it's so ridiculous, right? A suggestion like that. So, you know, they're just trying so hard, and it's not working. They've even now started imitating me, of all people. They want to imitate me, and they start using foul language, but they use too much of it. You know, you can't use the F word seven times in one sentence. It doesn't work. It might work once every seven news conferences. But you can't do it. You can't do it seven times in one sentence. So I don't know. They're, they're, they're really. They're in big trouble, that party. Go ahead.

A (13:09)

I love that. I love President Trump giving advice to these guys. He's referring to people like Gavin Newsom and J.B. pritzker and Brandon Johnson, all these idiots who are, like, cursing on television and, and to act real tough, and they think they're acting like Trump. And Trump's like, hey, you're getting the touch wrong. You got to be a little, you gotta be a little bit more judicious with your deployment of this foul language. In other words, the President's advice to members of Congress and Democrats and elected officials is you need to give fewer fucks. That's the position of the President of the United States. So a little bit of political advice, free political advice from President Trump, and we'll see if they take it. The answer will be no, of course they won't take it. But. But here he calls Dan Goldman a loser. So that's the president mocking that guy for being an idiot, which he is. But the administration is taking this a step further. If these officials, these state officials, lay a hand on ICE officers, the new statement from the Trump administration is this. You elected officials will be subject to arrest. You are witnessing an FA FO sequence right now. And the Trump administration has a new warning for these Democrats. If you lay a hand on these guys, on our men and women of law enforcement, you will be arrested. Here's the latest. You've got Pam Bondi coming out last night. Well, let me, let me start here. Let me, let me start with Chicago mayor, former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot. This will set the frame for you because she just went on television herself and she said, we need to dox these ICE agents. We need to make their lives a living hell. And Pam Bondi responded to this. So first, Beetlejuice, Lori Lightfoot showing up. Here she is, cut 7.

E (15:01)

Start the process of unmasking the agents. Even though they're wearing masks, every single one of them has a towel.

A (15:08)

You say unmasking, they're going to say you're going to dox them. And that's why threats against them are up.

E (15:12)

They are on public property, out in the open. We have an absolute right under our constitution to be able to document what's happening. Every single one of those agents, height, weight, hair color, they wear their vests in a particular way. They're wearing insignias. Even the Masks that they wear, the shoes that they wear, the cars that they're driving. We have a right to compile that information and put together a profile of each of these agents that's alleged to have committed crime.

A (15:44)

Okay. All right. So she wants to dox them. You know, she wants to intimidate them. This is within the context of all the assaults on ICE agents. Just to be clear on what she's up to. You want to do an interview with Lori Lightfoot? Let me. Let me see if I can summon her. Ready? Lori Lightfoot. Lori Lightfoot. Lori Lightfoot. It didn't work this time. All right, we'll try later. Anyway, that was Lori Lightfoot. So Pam Bondi, the Attorney General of the United States, is responding to all of this. She went on Fox last night. Here she is explaining. Okay, Laurie, you're added to the list. We may have arrests coming for all of you. Take a look.

F (16:21)

First time I've seen the Lori Lightfoot video is just now on your show. She will be getting a letter from us tomorrow to preserve anything that she's done as well, to make sure that she's not violating the law. It appears she is. You. You cannot disclose the identity of a federal agent where they live, anything that could harm them. Pritzker, Same ball game with him. And you know, Pelosi got a letter today from Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanch. So did Brooke Jenkins, that DA In San Francisco. We told them, preserve your emails, preserve everything you have on this topic, because if you are telling people to arrest our ICE officers, our federal agents, you cannot do that. You're impeding an investigation. And we will charge them if they think I want. They have not met me.

A (17:13)

All right, so what did the Justice Department send these guys? I think Pam Bondi, in a way, kind of undersold it a little bit. She's sending a message to these guys like, hey, knock it off, or consequences are coming your way. Well, what are those consequences look like? Well, here we have the letter. This comes to us from Todd Blanche at the United States Department of Justice. And here's what it says. It's addressed to Gavin Newsom, the Governor, Rob Bonta, the Attorney General of California, Nancy Pelosi, and then Brooke Jenkins, who is the District Attorney in San Francisco. And they say federal agents, officers, and prosecutors work tirelessly every day to advance the public safety during this mission set forth by President Trump and Attorney General Bondi. Despite receiving no pay during this shutdown, federal agents all across four federal districts in California continue to put themselves in harm's way. Rather than supporting and working with federal law enforcement, California politicians, including U.S. representative Nancy Pelosi, have instead called for state and local law enforcement officials to, to arrest federal agents and officers. This is too much. And these, these immigration enforcement guys, these ICE officials, they've got too much on the line. Their, their, their families are praying that they come back safely each day. And it's Democrats who are creating the conditions whereby some of them might not. And that can't happen anymore. That can't happen. That can't happen at all. All right. I've got more information coming up for you. Speaking of accountability and whether or not Democrats are going to be arrested, is Adam Schiff about to be handcuffed? I've got updates on that and a lot more ahead on this edition of Vince. Let me thank the great sponsors. Bone Charge is one of them. Bone Charge is such a good product.

Is Adam Schiff the next up in in the, in the wheel of accountability. So far, we've seen a lot of good news here in terms of indictments. We've got Letitia James, we've got James Comey, we've got John Bolton. This week, the House Judiciary Judiciary Committee has made a criminal referral for John Brennan, the former CIA director. And Adam Schiff, you will remember, stands credibly accused of misleading mortgage lenders about his primary residence. He's accused of maintaining two primary residences, one in California and one in the D.C. area, and misrepresenting the fact that they're both his primary residents in. In order to gain favorable mortgage rates. That's the accusation. And there's documentation. There are receipts to support that. So has a grand jury been impaneled to go after Adam Schiff? Well, judging by the answer we just got from the attorney general yesterday, I think it's safe to say it's yes, that there is a grand jury impaneled against Adam Schiff. Take a look. Cut nine here. An interesting question. And answer the President of the United States saying, I don't know anything about it. What do you know? Pam Bondi? Here's how she answered. Watch.

D (21:39)

Adam Schiff is one of the lowest forms of scum I've ever dealt with in politics. He's a horrible human being, very dishonest person. I have no idea what's going on. You tell me that he's going to be indicted. I don't know. You could ask Pam. I don't know if she's. She could say it, probably. You are allowed to say it, but I would know about that. I can only tell you he's a very. He's a very bad. I think he's actually a sick person.

A (22:06)

He's sick person. Is a very sick person. Okay, so that's the president's take on all of this. So what did Pam Bondi have to say? Take a listen. Here she is talking about this very thing. She says, well, I can't tell you everything.

D (22:22)

Do you want to talk about that?

F (22:25)

We're not going to comment on any.

A (22:27)

Grand jury that's open. We can't legally.

D (22:30)

I don't know.

A (22:34)

All right. So are you like me and reading into this? You should be. It's great. So I can't talk about any grand jury that's open. I can't legally. Now, if there was no grand jury impaneled against Adam Schiff, if there was nothing to report, if this was just some sort of conspiracy theory, if this was just invented, how easy would it be for the Attorney General of the United States to knock it down. There just be like. But no, there's, there's no criminal investigation into Adam Schiff. No, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna dignify that. Like, that's, that's ridiculous. It's preposterous. No, no, instead she's like, I can't talk about it. That's. I'm. Hello. I think we've got confirmation. There's a grand jury impaneled against Adam Schiff, which, by the way, Schiff knows Schiff has been freaking out about this. He keeps doing pencil neck interview after pencil neck interview where he's complaining about Donald Trump. He's coming after me. He's treating me badly. Okay, great. Enjoy. Enjoy your grand jury, dude. So the accountability machine rolls on. Something's always happening. Have you noticed? Something is always happening, Vince. Nothing ever happens. Yeah, hilarious. Really funny. All right, so there's, there's Pam Bondi, the Attorney General, making the update yesterday on what exactly is going on with, with Adam Schiff. So that's our, that's the latest update on Accountability Watch. Holy cow. Also, people like Adam Schiff continue to keep our government closed. And they're doing it gleefully. They love keeping the government closed. They're very, they're big fans of making people suffer. And you know something? Another House Democrat has just come out and admitted that people are suffering. She knows that that's the case. Democrat, Ohio Representative Amelia Sykes. She voted to shut the government down. Here she is cut one. Admitting she knows that her own constituents are going to suffer as a result. Watch.

G (24:28)

Know that people are going to suffer if we don't open the government. And we only have just under a week to make sure that this does not happen. And I'm just going to make it as plain as possible. People will go hungry. While SNAP benefits are very helpful, most people are only getting about $6 a day. But that $6 a day is really impactful for families who need it. And again, I'm talking about our seniors. Children. Children are a very large portion of beneficiaries of snap, as well as our veterans who are going to suffer.

A (25:01)

They're going to suffer. And guess what? So you go back, check the voting record. Did you vote to keep the government open? No, she voted to close it. So these are the consequences of your actions, Democrat lady. You did this. So the government gets shut down because of Democrats like her. And she says, yeah, people are gonna suffer. This follows on the heels of people like the Democrat Minority Whip, Catherine Clark earlier this week saying that, yep, people are gonna suffer and that's gonna keep going because that's our leverage. That's what we need. We need leverage here in this fight. And human suffering is our leverage as always among the Democrats. Now, what kind of suffering are we talking about? You heard the Democrat woman talk about this just a moment ago. You know that food stamps are about to disappear. Food stamps. So look, I get it. Not everybody's on food stamps. Not everybody is receiving assistance. But there are poor people in our country who rely on food stamps in order to help feed their families. And that's about to all go away. Here's the update for you. It's a massive story and the media are not spending a lot of time on it because they know that the damage to Democrats is going to be severe or to the extent that they talk about it, they try and blame Trump for it, of course. But here's the story. Politico reports at least 25 states are on the verge of cutting off food aid in November. Food aid. Millions of low income Americans will lose access to food aid on November 1st when half of states plan to cut off benefits due to the government shutdown. 25 states have now told Politico that they are issuing notices informing participants of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, snap, known as food stamps, colloquially, that they won't receive checks next month. Those states include California, Arkansas, Hawaii, Indiana, Mississippi and New Jersey. Other states did not respond to requests for comment in time for publication. But here's the thing. They can't afford it. No money's coming in. The federal government is shut down. Poor people will go hungry because of the left right now, because of their cruelty. Oh, we're fighting for the impoverished. Really. You seem to be steamrolling the impoverished right now. Additionally, poor people at this moment, food stamp recipients are being told that they should go to food banks in order to get food. And that's true. Americans are generous. There's a lot of donations that are made to food banks. Here's the problem. It's not going to happen. It's not going to be possible. Food banks are warning right now that they can't meet the demand. SNAP recipients are being told NBC reports, to buy shelf stable food or go to food banks. As the funding deadline looms, recipients of SNAP food assistance benefits across the country face a looming deadline come November 1st. Their cards may not get refilled because of the government shutdown in Washington. They say many states have announced they plan to suspend suspend food stamps if the shutdown continues into the next month. Some state leaders are now recommending people turn to food banks or use their remaining benefits to buy non perishable items. Quote, if you have accrued SNAP benefits from previous months on your account, use those funds now to buy shelf stable foods that can last through November and beyond. But the food banks are saying the following. It's going to be impossible to fill the gap. Quote, there's no way that our charitable food network or the system in this country can provide that much food overnight or quickly. It's an impossible task. That's Catherine d', Amato the CEO of the Greater Boston Food Bank. Look, you're gonna see some dishonesty on the part of a lot of dishonesty. It'll continue on the part of the media. They're gonna try and stick Donald Trump with this. This is not Trump's fault. Trump is trying to open the government. Trump wants to keep those food stamp benefits flowing. They're busting their asses to try and figure out how we can get this money out the door to make sure that hungry families can be fed. They're busting their tails in order to make sure that the military can get paid. In case you want another sign that the cruelty is the point, that these Democrats are just trying to make people suffer in order to advance their own cruel power advantages. That's what this is, what you're witnessing right now. And almost nobody's talking about this, but food stamps are on the verge of disappearing if these Democrats don't finally vote to reopen the government. It's cruel. It's deeply cruel. And, and yes, human suffering will endure because will will ensue, rather because of that. All right, I've got, I've got more ahead for you on the program. We've got to get into the, the tattoo guy, the, the Nazi tattoo guy who's running in Maine. Also, everybody's talking about the, the ballroom this week. Everyone's going wild.

I want to talk about something that I realized late in the week this week, but that is super important about the presidential ballroom build that's going on at the White House right now. I think that everybody's missing the point. And when I say everybody, I mean almost everybody is missing the point of what's going on. And to help you understand what I mean by that is I want to, I want to take you back in time a little bit about just on the history of the East Wing of the White House. You know, the East Wing was built in 1902 by Teddy Roosevelt, and it was built merely as kind of an office space extension of the White House. But it was, it was just meant for some extra space, that's all. But it wasn't until the 1940s that the East Wing really got a meaningful overhaul. In 1942, Franklin Delano Roosevelt had established a presidential bunker underground at the site of the East Wing. In fact, when we talk about the Presidential Emergency Operations center, you know, the peoc, these are all matters of public record. I only know it because I've consumed it in public. There is a presidential bunker that's built directly under the East Wing. So when we talk about the East Wing, we talk about things like, oh, it's where the first lady's office is or where the social office is for the White House, or people enter there in order to go on the Christmas tour of the White House, these types of things. But the little appreciated and little discussed feature of the East Wing is that the building itself is functionally designed to conceal that underneath is the bunker, the emergency operations center for the United States of America. This whole week, we've seen outrage, headline after outrage headline that President Trump is destroying the White House. He's ruining it, he's wrecking everything, and he's taking down the entire East Wing. But if you like me, pay attention to the details this week, you begin to realize that something much bigger than a glorious new ballroom is being built just Think this through for a moment. If you were President Donald Trump and you were taking down the east Wing of the White House in order to build a ballroom, do you just leave the old mid century nuclear bunker that was built by FDR just sitting there with no updates whatsoever? You really think that's what's happening? No way. Ladies and gentlemen, the point of this entire project is to make that bunker state of the art. This is one of the critical and most missed elements of this entire crazy news cycle. This week, the Presidential Emergency Operations center very obviously is about to receive the most important, most state of the art update imaginable. It's going to be updated from a mid century nuke bunker to a 21st century state of the art, all threats bunker, not just for this president. In fact, by the time it's done, it's really going to functionally be designed to benefit every President of the United States who works in that White House going forward. That bunker was built to withstand a direct nuclear hit. A direct nuclear hit. In fact, according to the White House, the exact specification of the bunker underground is classified, of course, and it was originally built to withstand that direct nuclear assault. On the location of the White House, access to that bunker is controlled by an elevator located behind multiple vault type doors with biometric access control systems. These are all details provided publicly by the White House. That facility is going to have to still exist, which means they're going to be building a new one. It's obvious to anybody with eyes and a brain as to what's going on. In fact, let me offer an update for you on this and why we know this with some certainty. Earlier this week, the United States Treasury Department began telling employees not to share photos of the White House ballroom construction. The Wall Street Journal reported on this, and the media treated this story like it was some attempt to cover up the scene of the demolition, that the Trump White House is just embarrassed by the images of destroying the White House getting out. But pay attention to the first, the first few paragraphs of this story and with the context I just gave you. Built here. The Treasury Department instructed employees not to share photos of the demolition of parts of the White House East Wing after images of construction equipment dismantling the facade of the building went viral online. Treasury's headquarters is located right next door to the East Wing, giving employees there a front row seat to the construction of President Trump's $250 million ballroom. The new project is set to replace parts of the East Wing. And if you're for those of you on rumble.com Vince, look how close everything is here. In the image, you can see the Treasury Department is not even a stone's throw away from the East Wing. You can see directly from one building to the other very easily. So treasury employees had a great vantage point to take pictures. In the article, they cite the email that treasury officials sent out to the employees. They said, as construction proceeds, employees should refrain from taking and sharing photographs of the grounds to include the East Wing without prior approval from the Office of Public Affairs. A Treasury Department spokesman said that the email was sent to employees because photos could potentially reveal sensitive items, including security features or confidential structural details. This has to be maddening for President Trump, by the way, because obviously this project and the way that they're conducting it is designed to be classified. They don't really want to give you a lot of detail on the specifics. They don't want to tell you too much about how they're building this thing and what's going into it. They're obviously trying to prevent photos from being taken because this is a vulnerable time while they're working on the, on the foundational level for this, for this bunker and everything else. And so the President's getting all this grief for building a ballroom, which I, I'm excited about. I think the ballroom is going to be wonderful. I'm excited. And he's doing it by, by bringing his own money in and private donors. But the fact is, almost nobody's really acknowledging the fact this is right on top of the presidential bunker. Of course, they're redesigning and rebuilding all of this. And here's one other piece of information to support my theory of what's actually going on here. The X account, MJ Truth Ultra, noticed the same thing that I noticed this week, which is that at one point, the President of the United States, while talking to the press, mentioned that the United States military is actively very involved in the construction of the new ballroom. Now, on first blush, you might listen to this and think to yourself, well, yeah, the military is involved in protecting the President. Of course, they'd have some general security concern about the White House. I think there's way more to this. I think this has a lot to do with the presidential bunker. Take a look here. Here's the President earlier this week talking about the role the military is playing in the construction project.

D (41:37)

This is an interior shot of the ballroom. I think there'll be nothing like it. And it's being paid for 100% by me and some friends of mine, donors to it, the government is paying absolutely nothing. We're also working with the military on it because they want to make sure everything is perfect. And the military is very much involved in this. They want to make sure everything is absolutely beautiful. You can see the kind of interiors.

A (42:03)

Pretty wild, huh? So, so, so the reality here, of course, is that President Trump, as usual, is doing something of immense importance to the American people and the well being of our country. In fact, the very stability and success of our country. The media is giving him nothing but grief for this. They're treating this like he's some destroyer. He, instead, he is a builder, he always has been. And here he is in a great position to not just build, but enhance both the look of the White House and the security of the United States of America. So, you know, just, just worth thinking about. And again, this is nothing. Nothing I just said came from any sort of classified assessment. No sources, nobody tipped me off to anything. I was just watching this all weekend, going, you know, the bunkers under that building, which is a matter of public record. I wonder what's going to happen to it. And then I had this eureka moment and I go, wait a second. The whole point is to enhance the bunker. This is the whole point. Amazing. It's just amazing. And, and, and maybe the President never talks about it in detail, but my sense is that this is a victory that the President may end up in the end, never taking credit for, but fascinating to watch. Fascinating to watch. And we'll see. We'll see what happens. All right, let me, Let me go. Did you know that chat, it was. Chat dialed in on this? It was, I. Am I late to the game? I felt like this is like just a fascinating thing. Just a completely fascinating thing. Let's see. We've got some updates for you too on what's going on with a Democrat Senate candidate in Maine by the name of Graham Platner. And this guy, he is a former Marine, which is, which is admirable. I like, we love United States Marines. They're wonderful. But this guy turns out as an individual, not wonderful. Not wonderful. In fact, he's got a Nazi tattoo squarely on his chest. And he's had it for now 18 years. And he's been acting like this was just one big misunderstanding. He just had no idea that he had a Nazi tattoo affixed to his chest. And, and so this week we get a number of videos out of this guy and he is trying to, he's trying to tell you that he had, he had no idea. He was just an idiot. That for the last 18 years, he's just been a complete and utter moron. Here's Graham Platner attempting to explain his Nazi tattoo. Cut 11. Watch this.

H (44:48)

We wanted to get something that represented our jobs, our service, fighting in Fallujah and Ramadi as machine gunners. We went ashore, we found a tattoo parlor. After a fair amount of heavy carousing, and we found a tattoo on the wall, a piece of flash that looked like a terrifying skull and crossbones. We thought it looked cool, and so we got it. I have had this tattoo for the last 18 years. I reenlisted into the United States army with this tattoo, where I was screened for hate and gang related tattoos. I worked for the State Department as a contractor, where I got a full physical, which included screening my tattoos. I've gone through life with this thing, taking my shirt off, having photographs taken, videos taken. I've been very, very open in my life with the fact I had a skull and crossbones on my chest, because that's what I thought it was. It's come to my attention that it has a stark resemblance to a symbol that is used by neo Nazis. And I want to say that was not the intent at all.

A (45:54)

That was not the intent at all. Now, the. The tattoo in question is a Totenkopf symbol. It represents the. The Nazi SS artillery unit. And this. This guy, he's. He's unreal. It's just unreal. He's had no idea that this tattoo was on his chest for all those years. And what it represented. That's. Look at this. Amazing. Just amazing. And so Graham Platner is trying to go with, I'm the I'm an idiot defense rather than, yeah, I knew I had a Nazi tattoo on my chest. He said, I was just drunk. You know, I just. Drunk. Everybody gets drunk and we get Nazi tattoos on our chest. Really? That. That's what happens. And then he says, I've actually covered it up now, so everything should be fine. Here's Graham Platner attempting to say it's. It's. Everything's over. I've put ink all over it. I've literally covered up my Nazi tattoo. And so you don't have to worry anymore. Watch.

H (46:52)

I know that symbols like this can be incredibly damaging to people. And the idea that I've had it all these years and it could have been read like that is. Is incredibly troubling. I have lived the life dedicated to anti fascism, anti racism, and anti antifa. I think that racism and anti Semitism are a long Scourge on our society and a long scourge on our politics. And I think it has no place in our world. For that reason, I have gone and gotten it covered up. It's a Celtic knot with imagery around dogs because my wife Amy and I have two wonderful dogs that we love a lot. This far more represents who I am now than even the skull and crossbones did, which I thought that it was.

A (47:38)

He's so full of shit. It's unreal. It's unreal. You want some more evidence that he's lying to you? The Washington Free Beacons, Chuck Ross has a great piece on this this week. My Totenkopf Graham Platner associates say he knew he had a Nazi tattoo. He knew it. Graham Platner, the Bernie Sanders endorsed Senate candidate in Maine, revealed that he has a Nazi link tattoo on his chest. But he claimed to be unaware of the symbolism. But associates of Platner are refuting that claim. One of them is calling him a history buff. He's a history buff who quote, knows damn well the meaning of the tattoo. And another saying that he referred to the ink as quote, my Totenkopf. That's what he's been, he's been going around for a long time saying that this is my toten cop. Oh, you didn't know what it was. You just thought it was a skull and crossbones. Why are you calling it your Totenkop? So he's lying. He's, he's lying. Which should, should come as no surprise to you. Also we, we've just found out that not only is he got a Nazi tattoo that he knew all about, he's also training left wing paramilitary forces to get very violent when necessary, in his view. Here's, here's the update. Steve Robinson is a fantastic reporter out of the state of Maine. He's obsessed with reporting on what's going on inside of his own state. He wrote this. Ex Marine Graham Platner taught military tactics and recruited for the socialist paramilitary group in Maine. And there's a picture of the socialists all gathering together, armed up. They have a, they have a flag. It says anti fascist, anti fascism, anti homophobia. They have a, it's a, it's a pride flag. Left wing terrorists. Sullivan aquaculturalist Graham Platner, the ex Marine running against Governor Janet Mills for the Democrat US Senate nomination instructed members of the Socialist Rifle association of on paramilitary tactics, according to newly uncovered social media posts. Graham Platner, the progressive star, revealed in an August 8, 2020 post that he provided advanced firearms instruction to the far left group Antifa. Basically, they're Antifa, the Socialist Rifle association, including a defensive handgun course that he put on In June of 2020, shortly after the BLM riots erupted all across the country. She said, all we do is a lot of range days, firearms education classes, developing mutual aid networks in our community. We just put on a defensive handgun course two weekends ago. We do monthly introduction to firearms courses for new members as well as more advanced classes for experienced members. It helps. We have a significant amount of combat veterans and firearm instructors who have put together a solid curriculum to build proficiency among our membership. So he's training. He's arming and training socialists in the state of Maine to take up arms in the United States of America. That's what this Graham Platner has been up to, as he claims that, oh, it's not a Nazi tattoo. I had. I had no idea. And our buddy Luke Rosiak added some other reporting on top of what Steve Robinson has given us. He tells us this. This main Democrat, Graham Platner belonged to that socialist group who was linked. That socialist group was linked to an ICE attack and the Tesla bombings. Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner was a member of this group that has been linked to an assault on an ICE facility that was just designated a terror attack this month as a part of a crackdown on Antifa. He calls himself a communist imposed on Reddit. He's calling on people to fight fascism. He says that they need a good semiautomatic rifle and if they don't know that, they need to do some reading of history. He claims he's a part of, again, the Socialist Rifle Association. Luke refers to on July 4, a group of militants swarming law enforcement in an ICE facility in Alvarado, Texas, and opening fire at the unarmed DHS correctional officers. One of them shot a police officer in the neck. That guy is a member of the Socialist Rifle Association's Dallas Fort Worth chapter. And then last week, the DOJ charged two suspects in that attack, Cameron Arnold and Zachary Evans, with providing material support to terrorists. So what do we have here? We've got a full blown extremist on our hands and he's trying to orchestrate a cover up, literally, when it comes to the tattoo. Now, as you may have heard, Bernie Sanders has supported this guy very enthusiastically. Of course, the socialist Bernie Sanders. These commies stick together. Here's Bernie telling Axios this week that everybody needs to stop talking about this tattoo. This tattoo doesn't even matter. This guy's a great guy. He's a wonderful guy. Here he is. Bernie Sanders.

I (52:41)

Listen, I am not overly impressed by a squad of media running around saying, what do you think about the tattoo on Gran Plotner's chest? Between you and me, there might be one or two more important issues, but. All right, let me go there. I'm not Graham's best friend. I met him several times. We did a rally in Portland, Maine. A great rally. I am impressed by the guy. This is a guy who will tell you who has served four tours of duty with the United States military. He was in the middle of some heavy duty combat. He was a machine gunner. That's what you do. You mow down people, you know, mow down through some very difficult experiences in the military. As a machine gunner, seeing his friends killed came out of the military. He will acknowledge. I'm not telling you what he doesn't say. He had ptsd. He went to the VA and by the way. But he says they rebuilt his life. He went into a dark period in his life. I suspect that Graham Plattner is not the only American to have gone through a dark period. But what he did was he expressed his darkness on the Internet. Probably not a brilliant thing to do.

A (53:56)

All right, Amazing.

I (53:57)

He said things that are stupid, things that were hurtful. He has apologized for them.

A (54:03)

So they're trying everything. So Platner's excuse is, I had no idea. I thought I just got a skull and crossbones. I was carousing. He says, I was just drunk. We just went ashore and I got a tattoo. Never really thought about it. His campaign manager is saying, that's utter bullshit. I knew because he kept referring to it as his totenkoff. It's my totenkoff. It's my totenkoff. Until he got caught. And now he's saying he's pleading ignorance. And then Bernie says, actually he went to a very dark period and he got a Nazi tattoo on his chest. Everybody gets a Nazi tattoo on the chest when they go through a dark period. Really? That's the excuse. Now, like, which is it? Why don't you come up with a line of attack here if you're going to come up with some sort of explanation for this and stick with it. Now they can't stick with anything. They have nothing. They're just trying to keep their head above water just to survive this thing and get out of it and get you to stop paying attention to the fact that they're running a cannon with a Nazi tattoo on his chest. And Bertie, I love that, oh, you know, everyone goes through a dark period at some point. You're a free agent for the hate groups. I ended up with the Soviets, he ended up with the Nazis. That was his choice, you know. But in the end, you remember the Nazis, they're socialists. Do the National Socialist Workers Party. So they're kind of on my team. Thanks, Bernie. Great explanation. You psychopath. You absolute psychopath. So the. The Soviets, perfectly good with the Nazi and they're all a bunch of lefties now, of course. Remember when somebody just said it in the chat? Yeah. Remember Hegseth tattoo issues. Pete Hegseth had Christian tattoos, has Christian tattoos on his body. And when he was becoming the secretary of NOW War, the media went apoplectic. Watch. A lot of attention has been paid to Hegseth's tattoos. A Deus volt one that has been adopted by white supremacists. A tattoo of his that's been affiliated with the Christian Crusaders and white supremacists. Pete Hegseth, he's not that terrible. It's just the fact that he has a white supremacist tattoo on him.

F (56:00)

A tattoo on.

A (56:01)

On his arm that is associated with white supremacist groups.

F (56:05)

Hegseth has a crusader tattoo which is.

A (56:07)

Tied to white nationalists tattoos associated with white nationalism. Has white Christian nationalist tattoos. White national, by the way, just to be clear, in case you wonder what they think of Christianity. They think you're an extremist. If you're a Christian. They really think that. They think that his Christian tattoos are indicative of extremism because they think Christianity represents extremism. That's how vile these human beings are, and that's how extremist they are. But that's the treatment they gave Pete Hessef Beat Hegseth. Graham Platner, Kid gloves. Oh, he had no idea. Skull and crossbones, dark period. Let him go. People make mistakes. Yeah, no, I don't think so. The guy's an extremist. I figured you should know about him. I'm glad you're here with me today. I'll be back with you Monday with another exciting episode. Events.
