[00:00:13] Broadcasting live from atop the Rocky Mountains, the crossroads of the West. You are listening to the Liberty Roundtable Radio Talk Show. All right. Happy to have you along, my fellow Americans. Sam Bushman, Lance Migliaccio, hard-hitting news the network refused to use. No doubt starts now. This, my fellow Americans, is the broadcast for January 22nd in the year of our Lord, 2025.
[00:00:41] This is Hour 1 of 2. The goal always to protect life, liberty, and property, to promote God, family, and country, and to do so on your radio in the traditions of our founding fathers. Rejecting revolution, unless it's the Jesus Revolution, then we're in because we follow the Prince of Peace. Using the checks and balances brilliantly in the Supreme Law of the Land, the Constitution, as our guide. Ladies and gentlemen, we've got so much to talk about. So little time. Lance Migliaccio with me, host of the Big Mig Broadcast.
[00:01:10] Usually it's the Big Mig Bros with me. George, not here today. Personal stuff like work. I've got to make a living, you know. That's kind of the deal, ladies and gentlemen. So we politely dismiss George and wish he was with us. And Lance, welcome to the broadcast, sir. Hey, thanks, Sam. Happy to be here as always. You know, I just have to carry the spear on without George Ballantine. But, of course, we'll try to do our best. And lots of great stuff in the news cycle. This has been a crazy week so far. But I'll tell you what, though. You know what?
[00:01:39] We do understand, though. I mean, sadly, we don't know if we could just get somehow, you know, a lot of these billionaires, Musk and Trump and, you know, all these people. If they'd just double down and trickle a little cash downstream where we could, you know, do this full time, then George could be with us. But, you know, he's got to work just like I do and you do and everybody else. And it's just tough to balance it all, bro. You know, it is tough to balance it all. And you're right about what you said.
[00:02:03] It's a shame in a lot of ways because I've seen some great broadcasters and some great shows just get canceled because in the conservative arena or even the political arena, it's difficult to get monetized. It's difficult to find sponsors. As you know, on our show, we've really expanded our voice into music, MMA and others trying to follow the Joe Rogan model. Because I think if you stay entrenched strictly into politics, it's a grind that I'm not sure there's any endgame for.
[00:02:34] Yeah, it depends on what the endgame is. If it's financial enumeration, it's going to be rough and tough. If your goal, on the other hand, is the country and you dedicate time to it. You know, for me, for example, I believe it's a calling from God for me. And as a result, I've got to spend my time doing it in whatever little shekels I can get along the way I take. And I just say, you know, by the grace of God go I, Lord, you call the shots and I do the work. And, you know, at the end of the day, maybe my reward is somewhere else, you know? Yeah, absolutely.
[00:03:03] I think that that's a great way to look at it. Of course, that's a lot of what we do because this work, you have to go on with that perspective. But at the same time, you still have overhead and expenses that need to be handled. Oh, no question. This is not free at the end of the day for people that don't realize it. You know, you've got to pay for bandwidth and you've got to pay for your studio services and you've got to pay for this account and that account. At the end of the month, you know, thousands go out. So it's, you know, even though I know a lot of times it is a labor of love, you still would like to cover all of your overhead more.
[00:03:33] That's always the plan, right? Yeah. And I mentioned to everybody, you know, hey, this radio network cost me about six grand a month to run. That doesn't count any money for Sam. Yeah. And that's so, you know, it's expensive. That's a big number. It's a relatively big number compared to all the other networks out there. It's a tiny number. But when it comes to cracking the nut, it's a huge number. Yeah. There's no doubt. I don't want to digress onto that, ladies and gentlemen, just run around and say, poor me.
[00:04:00] But I do want our audience to understand behind the scenes what it really takes. Who's really putting their money where their mouth is? Who's what? It's really important for people to understand. You know, we do this because we believe that it's critical to stand for God, family and country. And you know what? People want to be flash in the pan. Always Trumpers. Flash in the pan. Never Trumpers or whatever the case may be. You know what?
[00:04:23] We've been in this business day in and day out with the ups and downs and economic turmoils and all the different things that we've gone through. And we just stay steady as a rock. And our goal is if it's constitutionally right, we're in. If it's not, we're out. If it's morally right, we're in. If it's not, it's all principles based to us. We're not interested in people. And we're not really interested in opinions so much as we are interested in doing our very best to follow principles. When it comes to God, hey, God sets the Ten Commandments forward, not me.
[00:04:53] God sets the love of the Lord thy God and love thy neighbor as thyself guidelines, not me. And so that's the God side. The family side, hey, God ordained a male and female. And thank heavens for Donald Trump doubling down and saying there's only two genders that our government recognizes. I mean, it's so common sense. It's amazing that he has to even say that. But we commend him for doing so. But there again, that's God's law translated to the family now. And I get that families aren't perfect.
[00:05:18] But I also get that we need to support the ideal, live in the real, and work making the real the ideal the best we can. So we look at a God ordained traditional family. When it comes to country, we simply believe the supreme law of the land is key. The checks and balances are brilliant. The chaining people down with the Constitution is the answer. So we advocate for all that. And we've done so for 30 years. And you know what? When we meet our maker someday, hopefully our reward isn't of this world. And I get that we have to have the money.
[00:05:45] And thank heavens, you know, it seems like whenever we just don't have enough money, something squeaks in and we have just enough. Never more than enough, but just enough to take care of the things that we need to. Anyway, I digress. Sorry for the back trail a little bit. But I want people to know who we are, what we spend our time doing, why we do it, all that kind of stuff. That's more important to us. And I'm not really interested in the fame or the fortune or the, you know,
[00:06:11] I love my life in that we absolutely shape policy on the national and the international level. But yet, you know what? I can walk down the street and just be an average Joe. And so in a lot of ways, I have the best of both worlds. And that's something very unique. And people say, well, how do you know, Sam, that you influence national policy? And, well, we have answers along the way. You know, some will say, we can check your numbers on the Internet. We can know. You can't know anything, folks, at all. Okay? By the numbers on the Internet.
[00:06:40] I don't believe it, and I'm an IT professional for a living. I've got sons who are in IT. They're analytics professionals. My son has a master's degree in literally analytics and stuff. And I'm telling you, when you say that we can, not you, Lance, but just anybody, says that you can count all the numbers and that you know how many people are listening and buy the numbers, you're lying to me. Don't. Yeah, no doubt. Don't. Pee on my leg. Pardon the crude reference. And tell me it's raining. Don't do that. Okay? It isn't true.
[00:07:09] And you're lying to me. And you say, well, Sam, come on. The numbers show up in the digital world all over the place. No, they don't. They just don't. And I can give you 66 ways from Sunday to prove they don't. What happens when X or TikTok or one of these people, they say, oh, we got rid of a million fake accounts. Well, how do you know those were your listeners? Okay. You don't know those things. And what is a fake account anyway? Well, it's one set up, Sam, by the communist Chinese. How do you know your government didn't set it up? You don't even know.
[00:07:38] You can't trace this stuff on the Internet. And don't tell me you can. If you can, how come the Pentagon gets hacked and nobody can create any accountability then? Okay. They're lying to you, folks. And so I don't care about numbers. Okay. What if there was one person listening to a broadcast in the early 1990s, and then they turned out to be a nationally syndicated talk show host for 30-plus years, one of the top 250 talkers in the nation? Okay. That's me. Now, my goal isn't to say, oh, I'm important. My goal is to say, think what one listener can do.
[00:08:07] So is it really – would you rather have 50,000 absolutely dedicated, faithful listeners that support your sponsors, that activate when you encourage them to in meaningful, productive, peaceful ways? 50,000 of them? Or would you rather have 10 million listeners that didn't give really a rip? They thought you were fun and entertaining, and that's about it. Which would you rather have? And so I really spend the time on this for people to understand, what is this business about? What are we doing here on your radio? Yes, it's entertainment.
[00:08:36] We'll get into the entertainment stuff in just a second. And that's important. Don't get me wrong. But it's more important to stand on principle. It's more important day in and day out to say, hey, here's where I stand and here's why. And it doesn't matter who comes into office, who leaves office, who's got this money, who's got that, who's popular tomorrow. None of those things matter, Lance. Yeah, and there's no doubt about it. I agree with everything you're saying. But it's an interesting dichotomy.
[00:09:03] You look at what it takes to produce a show. You look at the effort that you have to do, the research. I mean, I got up about quarter to five this morning and got ready and then started looking for what was the freshest stuff in the news cycle. And when you do two, three shows a day, that's what the requirement is. So it makes it difficult to focus on any of the other things in your life. That's number one. And then number two, it's all the other part. You know, the trained people to help you like you have on your team, Sam, or the experience. I mean, Sam, what do you have in radio?
[00:09:33] 35 years? It's hard to say because I got 30 years on the air nationally syndicated. And then before that, I started. And so I don't really know. I started in like 91, 92 range. I mean, that's crazy. So the experience alone. I started by listening to the radio for a little bit. And then I started by writing radio commercials. And then I started by voicing and airing radio commercials and learning how the production side had worked. And then, anyway, I just kept moving and moving. Eventually, I bought a station, owned an AM radio station for 10 years, learned the business by hard knocks.
[00:10:03] I was chief bottle washer and chief engineer. I had an IT background, so I had a leg up on most. But I didn't know what I was doing. But I learned what to do. I learned how to make it happen. I understood the FCC. I worked through all that. And, anyway, so I've been around probably as long as, you know, I've got probably as many minutes or hours, whatever you want to call it, on live radios, anybody in the world at this point. And that's my point. You can probably find a person that's got more than me if you try. But it's going to be a rarity. And they're not going to have a lot more than me or they're going to be dead.
[00:10:33] Right? I'm almost 60 years old and I've been at it forever. I mean, Alex Jones and I and a few others, you can name on one hand. Go ahead and skip the break and, Lance, you're up. Yeah, and that's my point. So that experience is invaluable. You can't put a price on experience like that. Because the hard knocks portion of experience is probably the most valuable. We both know that. We made plenty of mistakes. You know, we've been up on the air, I think, now for about two and a half or three years. Not even close to the realm that you are.
[00:11:00] Of course, our original arena was in the videocast world or the podcast world. So, you know, we got to start over there at the Pete Santilli show. And we moved from there onto our own platforms, our own shows, our own vertical. Although we were working social media for years and years and years and years and years. And still, no hard feelings. Great shout out to Pete, by the way. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Listen, listen. Without him, I don't know that I'd be here. We learned so much over there. Because he has a lot of experience. He's already been through that loop. But, you know, that's what it takes, right?
[00:11:29] When we wanted to get involved in radio, you want to have an expert on your side. And that's why we, you know, got connected with you. We connected on a personal, for personal reasons in the beginning. But, of course, it branched and grew from there. And that's why it's such an, the value you provide for the Big Mig Talk radio show is unbelievable. Just the advice you've given us. But that's my point, right? You can't buy that. You can go to school, but you can't buy the real-life applications and the things that occur.
[00:11:57] There were so many things that George and I had to work through, whether it was servers and software and updates that didn't want to cooperate with products you were already using. And whether or not it was the audio wasn't going. And you're bringing guests in from around the globe and the complications of that and trying to get the audio and the video and hope that they've got the internet bandwidth to provide a decent show and interview. It's a crazy thing. And for a lot of people, they think, oh, I'll just throw a microphone up. Well, a lot of people think you just throw up a webcam and a microphone.
[00:12:26] And then they're like, well, how do you do that news sticker? Well, how do you use a news sticker? And how do you do a green screen or a blue screen? And why isn't my green screen look good? Well, it's because of your lighting. And then when you merge radio and TV like George and I were working on, how do you get the audio to go through for everybody? It's crazy. But you have not deal with the TV lag and all this kind of stuff. And I remember working with George in the back room that I'm looking up in the manual for his equipment and going, okay, listen, George, if you change this to this, we got it done. And we made it happen.
[00:12:55] And it's just the behind the scenes are just crazy in terms of what happens. It is, right? I remember trying to work on towers and transmitters, man. And I reached out and touched something. And, man, I almost got electrocuted, man. Burning flesh smell and everything else. And you're just like, okay, don't touch it anymore. But it wouldn't have been too funny then, you know. That's right. But don't touch that anymore. And then all of a sudden, I get into talk radio and we're taking on issues that are hardcore, the IRS and everything else.
[00:13:21] And every other day, you're getting phone calls if your radio station goes off the air for technical reasons because you're learning. And people call you and leave your voicemails. I knew the IRS would take you down. I knew the IRS. You know, and that's the funny thing, right? I see so many people. You know, we get a lot of questions. And we love fan mail. And we love to respond to people. And so many people say, oh, I'm thinking about doing a show. Can you tell me what I need to do it? You know, like in a Clip Notes version. And I'm like, well, it's, you know, I can give you some basics. And I try to help them because I'm that kind of guy.
[00:13:50] Yeah, can you teach me sign language at a night? Yeah, yeah, exactly. But their expectation is that you can give it to them in like a condensed, you know, podcast and radio for dummies. You know, you can just hand them up. The first thing I'd recommend is 99% of the population can never be consistent talk show hosts. So you might as well give it up now. That's what I would say to them first. Yeah. Consistency and authenticity are the number one and two failures of all shows for anybody that's listening out there to us right now about this content. The point is that's why people fail.
[00:14:19] Authenticity and consistency. People don't realize that how hard it is, the obligation to turn up day in and day out. You know, Sam does a radio show, you know, literally every single day nearly. And you have to realize he's got his other life going on. He's got family. He's got kids. You have no idea. A day job, a couple of them. Yeah. And you have to juggle, right? As do I. And the point is you juggle those and then you try to juggle the shows. And then you've got a live interview coming in from overseas. And they've got to do a recorded interview because they can't do the live interview.
[00:14:49] And you're juggling the interviews. You're juggling the guests. You're juggling the content. You're doing the research material. You're trying to handle the technical. I mean, it is a very complicated playing field. So I can tell you also competitive, it's difficult to develop relationships with Rumble, not to get, you know, like right now, the Big Mink show suspended on YouTube, probably permanently this time. And we don't even know why. I think somebody there, some leftist just didn't like our content. I'll tell you why.
[00:15:16] Because you're you and you stand up for God, family and country and principles. And they just can't have that over at Google. Yeah. Although Facebook does, has done an about face. I understand George has said he's been posting. That's what they say. How true that is, time will tell. Well, I got to give you an example. George has been posting stuff that normally would have gotten a suspension to test it because he doesn't really care about his Facebook account. Yeah, I can see Mark embraced the Elon idea, which says, hey, let's crowdsource, you know, truth and error versus government fact checkers and all this kind of stuff.
[00:15:45] And I think that's great by Mark Zuckerberg. But I mean, this clown put $420 million into an election that they say isn't isn't fraudulent. OK, I am not a Mark Zuckerberg fan. And I am absolutely not agreeing. If you're for Zuckerberg, you've been a sucker bird. Yeah. I'll tell you that right now. Zuckerberg. You've been a Zuckerberg. Exactly. But, you know, this administration has embraced some people that I don't feel good about. Look at Snoop Dogg. He trash talked MAGA. He trash talked Donald Trump for years.
[00:16:13] And then the next thing you know, he's he's performing at the Crypto Ball and then some other after inauguration event. Now, you tell me why anybody, including the Trump administration, why wouldn't they just jump out of the seat? So don't know. We're not using Snoop Dogg in any events. But of course, Snoop flipped the script the minute the Benjamins came out. Here he is. And all of a sudden he's not saying a bad word about MAGA or Trump. And he's performing. My point is there's the slim city stood up, buddy.
[00:16:41] Yeah, those those sellouts don't deserve a seat at the table, in my opinion. And Zuckerberg is one of them. So I just mentioned the Facebook thing because I was actually shocked when George told me about it last night. And I thought, there's no way. And we're grateful for it. But remember, those who give up can take away, too. Just remember that. Oh, no doubt. And that's why, you know, people say, Sam, if you would have just embraced video earlier. Sam, if you would have just went on YouTube and got monetized, you could be huge right now. There's a lot of ways I could be huge right now, folks.
[00:17:10] And I'm not trying to say that I'm important. I'm just trying to get across. I've had those opportunities. But I choose to turn them down. And I choose not to monetize YouTube and some of these other entities because what happens when they yank the money from you? And I might have a small network and people are like, oh, you're just preaching to the choir. Your network's tiny. My response is this. It's big enough to shape policy. Okay. Yeah. And if that's tiny over the years, if that's tiny, call it tiny. If you will.
[00:17:38] If that's preaching to the choir, call it what you will. But here's the deal. Well, I created my own network in 2009 because I learned the golden rule, which is he who owns the media makes the rules. And I started this network way after I got into radio. I mean, I got into radio in 91, 92. I started this network in 2009. But here's my point.
[00:18:02] I learned that if you want to say what you want to say, if you want to show what you want to show, you better own the media or they will control you and shut you down. It's that simple. No doubt. So you know what? Since I own my own network, unless they shut the whole internet down or literally chop me off internet-wise, which they haven't gone to that level, but they will. Write it down. Remember who told you first. Okay. When they go to that level, it's going to change the game.
[00:18:27] We're going to have to get a lot more creative and tell them though, Hey, I don't care if Facebook chops me off or shadow bands me or prevents me from growing. They've done that the whole time. Okay. I don't care. And so my network is independent of all that. And I don't shut people down. Okay. There's a few things you've got to do on my network to stay on my network. Number one, you can't trash talk other hosts on the network. We're like a family. You can differ in opinion, but you just can't call them out and trash them and take them on personally. Right.
[00:18:56] Second thing you can't do is you can talk about sex things, but you can't talk about sex in a salacious way. That's kind of like anti-family. That's just like perverted stuff. Okay. And I'll prove that in a minute. We're going to talk about a story. That's just awkward as all get out, but we'll be family about it. Okay. And then the last thing you can't do is you can't do things that violate the law or the FCC in ways that get me in trouble syndicating to radio stations. Other than that, you don't have to agree with me and I'll still put you on.
[00:19:21] And I get beat up in the press all the time, man, Sam has on these people that are crazy and think this and think that as if I agree. Well, they don't do that to CNN or Mark Zuckerberg or anybody else of people that agree or disagree just to me. And I look at it and say, my network might be small, but you know what? I own it and control it. And people don't shut me down. I'll be on the air tomorrow unless they start shutting down the whole Internet. Hey, I've got as much power as Mark Zuckerberg in terms of autonomy. Right? And that's vitally important.
[00:19:50] And I've known this from the beginning and advocated for this. And people used to laugh at me. Now they go, how did you know? Right? So there you go, Lance. That's how it is. Yeah, there's no doubt. I mean, the judgmental nature of the Internet and social media is incredible. You see it all the time. It's kind of like right now, the stuff they keep trying to talk about. Elon Musk with his excited wave to the audience and they've tried to turn it into a Nazi salute.
[00:20:19] And at the end of the day, somebody did a collage, which I was kind of blown away, of all the people that have kind of thrown up that vertical hand just to wave to the crowd in kind of a straight way that they're excited and they hit their chest and put it up. It is not a Nazi salute for Graham. Not in a Hitlerish way. But it's funny. Well, it's exactly. But they don't want doja. They don't want the administration to be effective. I mean, day one, Trump came out of the gate just slamming presidential executive orders
[00:20:49] and doing memorandums and firings and notifications. I mean, this guy, I don't know where this guy gets his energy from. You know what we need to do, Sam? We need that product because if we promote that on the show, we won't ever need another sponsor. Amen to that. Whatever this guy gets his energy from is unbelievable. You bottle that up, you'd be set. Maybe that's what billions does. Maybe when you have billions in the bank, that's what it does. It gives you a whole lot of energy. I think that Joe Biden was trying to discover that as far as I understand.
[00:21:16] One last grope is the headline from Jim Hoff over at the Gateway Pundit. One last grope. Joe Biden gets handsy with Melania Trump at the inaugural. And of course, this was ignored by the fake news media. Now, this is interesting. So he reaches and grabs her around the waist and then moves his body over by her. It's like, dude, you should be arrested for that kind of stuff. You can't just touch other people's wives and stuff.
[00:21:45] But when has he not been creepy? Well, I mean, he's always been that way. But how we tolerate it and allow it is beyond me. Yeah. Now, I don't know why Melania didn't just slap him right then and there. I don't know. And listen, I agree with you. I think the way that he's behaved has been so disrespectful in so many ways. And he's done it over and over again. We've seen it with children. We've seen it with women. I mean, the way he's grown up some people at events.
[00:22:14] You don't touch the president of the United States, the first lady. You don't grab her around the waist unless you're her husband for crying out loud. Yeah. But that just seems to be the standard. I don't know that he thinks he's above that. You know what? Well, he is. Hold on. Hold on. He doesn't think he is. Hold on, Lance. He doesn't think he is. He is above that. Yeah. You know, maybe not anymore. Until we can take him down and throw that sucker in prison for his crimes, he is above it all. And he'll just smirk at you and laugh at you while he takes his money to the bank for selling out the country.
[00:22:45] Well, let me let me comment on something. Did you see the Barron Trump handshake? Yeah. Whatever he whispered, whatever he whispered to Biden, I'm almost wondering, and I don't want to do it on radio, but I wonder I almost wonder if he used that, you know, that the terminology that four letter people talk about, about screwing around. I don't want to use it on radio, but of course, I'm just wondering what was whispered into Joe's ear. Yeah. Yeah. Star, star. You.
[00:23:15] Right? Yeah. I almost wonder if it was a veiled kind of aggressive threat. You know? It seemed like it because Biden's face, he seemed bewildered and he seemed kind of like, what? Like, I don't know. How dare kick? Did he just say that? Yeah. It seemed like that's what it was. I mean, you agree? Did you say? I totally agree. I've had people explain it to me. As you know, I can't watch it, but I've had people talk to me about it. And there's no question that it's like, what happened with that?
[00:23:43] Uh, and I think that Joe, um, knows this and I believe, and let me throw this out here. A lot of people believe that Joe pardoned everyone and that that pardon is going to stick. And there's several ways that Joe's pardons may not stick. When we get back, I want to talk about that a little bit because this is a pretty important when you think about it. Joe Biden literally pardoned all kinds of criminals, cop killers and all kinds of thugs.
[00:24:11] And now what the mainstream press is trying to do is go, oh, Donald, Donald let some of the J6ers go. He's the bad guy covering up all the real criminals that Joe pardoned, including his own family. We'll get into this because it's critical. You got Lance Migliaccio with me. The Big Mig Brothers. You can find them on Liberty News Radio. You can find them on X. You can find them on Rumble. Just look for the Big Mig. Okay. Back in seconds. You're listening to Liberty Roundtable Live.
[00:24:40] You're listening to Liberty News Radio. News this hour from townhall.com. I'm Rich Thomason.

It's dumping a lot of snow and spreading ice across a vast area. New Orleans resident Amy Welch trying to make the best of it. I just had to get out and experience it because we don't ever get snows like this, hardly ever.
[00:26:00] And it's just so beautiful. We've been sitting inside drinking coffee and eating and wanting to come outside and just experience it. And the dogs. The dogs wanted to get out here and play in it. It makes you feel like a kid again.

[00:29:30] Who have a moral compass. I don't think a civilization can long endure that does not have respect for all human life, born and not yet born. I will be in earnest. I will not equivocate. And I will not excuse. I will not retreat an inch. And I will be heard. One thing I promise you, I will always take a stand for life.
[00:29:57] From atop the Rocky Mountains, the crossroads of the West, you are listening to the Liberty Roundtable Radio Talk Show.
[00:30:49] All right. And I will be here.
[00:31:20] Lance Miliacho, George Ballantin. The point is, does Trump and team have the guts, have the mojo, whatever words you want to use, the integrity is the word I would use, to double down and create accountability and prosecute these clowns. I don't want to hear lock Hillary up and then leave Hillary alone. I'm talking about Syria. So here's the several ways this could happen. Number one, you could file all kinds of state charges against these people. Forget the federal. It doesn't apply to state charges.
[00:31:49] The Democrats made that abundantly clear when it came to Donald himself. So number one, you can go after these people for all kinds of state charges. And believe it or not, most charges aren't even federal charges, even though in recent times everything is a federal charge. But we need to understand the separation of powers. And states could literally go after Joe and family and everything else. That's number one. Number two, you probably know this as well as anybody, Lance, and you're pretty good at the law. So I want to bring this to your attention and see what you say. Here's the deal.
[00:32:17] If let's just say that I'm an old man and Lance is taking care of me and it turns out that at the end of my life, I sign a bunch of things. I sign my house over to Lance and my big bank account over to Lance and my cars over to Lance. And then my kids riot about it at the end. And they're like, what the heck is going on? Lance did all this. And Lance defrauded everybody. And they say, no, Sam signed these. And then they come back and they say, yeah, but you know what? Sam was not competent to sign those things.
[00:32:45] Just so you know, judges unwind those kind of transactions all the time. They just do. It's not a debate. Go to a state sales and go to a state, you know, planning. You'll find out. You'll study this. You'll know. Okay. So here's the deal. Not only did the Democrats, Kamala Harrison clowns know that Trump wasn't or that Biden was not fit to serve, much less take care of his own personal life. Everybody knows it, including Mike Johnson. Okay.
[00:33:14] Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House, third in line to the presidency behind Kamala. Right. And Mike Johnson now on TV says, hey, in January 2024, I met with the president. The president absolutely didn't even know what was going on. He signed something. And I told him he signed it. And he said, no, I didn't. And I said, president, this is Mike Johnson. President, I can have them printed out. We can go over it together if you want. You absolutely did this. And he's like, no, I didn't. I didn't do that. I just studied or I just signed something to study this.
[00:33:43] I didn't do what you're saying. And it turned out the president didn't even know what he had signed, had no idea. Now, we're not talking about Kamala and all the people around Joe that want to protect him. This is Mike Johnson. This is the Speaker of the House, third in line. He, from a national security point of view, should have came out and said, hey, this is not partisan politics. This is a national security issue. The president doesn't know what he's doing. Okay.
[00:34:16] Okay. When Biden, I mean, it's hard to call him president, but there you go. When Biden decided he was going to stay in, Johnson said nothing. When Biden created skipping the primary, Johnson said nothing. When they pulled this shenanigan and put Harris in second in line, Mike Johnson said nothing. Okay. After the fact, now, Mike Johnson said, I knew this. In fact, he calls it the scariest thing he's ever seen. Okay. Now, here's the question. Twofold.
[00:34:46] One, if you're incompetent to sign all those things as an individual and it can be unwound, it can certainly be unwound if you're doing it on the nation's dime for the nation when you're not competent to serve at all. Okay. So that's number one. Number two, I say we even go after Mike Johnson, Donald praising Mike. And I'm saying, Mike, you are a clown. How dare you leave our national security up to somebody who doesn't know what they're doing
[00:35:12] and then let the primary get skipped over it, let all these different things happen, and now you're still Speaker of the House? Okay, this is the problem, Lance. I want you to speak to this from a point of view. Can't we unwind this and say Joe can't pardon people? Joe can't have all these executive orders that he put in place. He's not even competent to do those things. Unwind it and unwind it now. Your thoughts?
[00:35:38] My thought is this, that I agree with that portion of this in the fact that if Joe Biden can't pass a competency exam, meaning a mental aptitude test, which is what I would call him to the table for, you'd have to question how long he's been dealing with those consequences. And of course, because of the doctor's Hippocratic oath, they wouldn't be able to reveal it unless he approved revealing it. But the point is to bring in interviews. But now Donald can approve that? Well, let me go on.
[00:36:08] To bring in interviews from all the people that served around him and subpoena them in. And then to bring up examples. If Mike Johnson knew, I would have to suggest that he committed what's called misprisions of a felony. The fact that he knew issues with the president's mental capacity and that it could be affecting our national security interests and the fact that he had no idea what he was signing. We don't necessarily know who was controlling him as a puppet.
[00:36:38] Mike Johnson should have come public with many others and gone on the front on that. He should have definitely done something about it. But by not doing it, I would have to say that they were doing something that is, in fact, dangerous for the country's national security interests. And, in fact, the president of the United States being the most important person on that chain of command. Yeah, I believe he's guilty of a crime. And I would suggest that all those people should be gone after.
[00:37:06] But, you know, Trump did already talk positively about Mike Johnson. And I don't like Mike Johnson. I think he's a Melba Milk Toast. I think he talked the talk, but he never walked the walk. This is criminal, in my opinion. And I do believe that it would be the opportunity to overturn every single action that Joe Biden took if we can prove that he was incompetent mentally. And who knows? Maybe even Harris would admit to it now since she has no more skin in the game. She might just out Joe Biden.
[00:37:34] Of course, there's no love lost between those two right now, Sam. Well, and I think you're right. And what I would do is, you know, you can put Joe on the stand. He didn't pardon himself. Okay? You can also put all kinds of people around them. For example, if they say Joe signed this thing about gas exports, that's what the discussion with Mike Johnson was about. And Joe said he didn't sign it.
[00:37:57] My response is if Joe said he didn't sign it, then the question becomes either Joe didn't know he signed it, and he did, or he didn't. Which is it? You know, there have been a question, Sam, about his signature. And either way, who put that in front of him knowing full well he was signing something that he couldn't really legitimately sign? Who put that in front of him? Who put the pen in his hand? Who drew it up? Who put it on the table? Who put it in front of him and then lied to him about what he was signing? Well, I've got to make an interesting comment.
[00:38:27] There have been some comparisons online that have showed up on Joe Biden documents. Now, I'm not saying this document in particular, but they've done some signature analysis comparisons. Yeah, and they're not Joe's. They're saying that many of those signatures are not Joe Biden's signature. They've used signatures that he did publicly from the past to do the comparison. And when I've seen them side by side online, I have to admit it does not look like Joe Biden's signature.
[00:38:52] Well, and then several of them might be Joe's signature, but it might be digitally placed or whatever else. And you could check layers of documents. Joe Arpaio did this when it came to Barack Obama's birth certificate and proved it was a fraud definitively. I worked with Michael Zillow on Joe Arpaio's team, and we had Joe Arpaio come to a Constitutional Sheriff's and Peace Officers Association event,
[00:39:20] and we literally had more than 100 sheriffs in the room that Mike Zillow presented his evidence to for Joe Arpaio on Barack Obama. So this stuff can be proven fairly easily. I don't mean to get off on a tangent, but hey, why don't we find out about Barack's fake birth certificate? Why don't we find out about how many signatures Joe really legitimately put to pieces of paper and then get the details under oath about how did those come to be?
[00:39:47] Is it really Joe's signature on that document Mike Johnson's talking about or not? Number one, and even if it is Joe's, if Joe didn't understand what he was signing, who manipulated the reality to where he'd signed it without understanding what he signed? There needs to be accountability. Here's the question. Will Donald get that done? I don't know. I mean, I think that's the question that many Americans are wondering about, myself included.
[00:40:15] Are we going to see the accountability and consequences that we expect and want to see? Now, I will tell you this. The executive orders that he's been writing do appear to have a bunch in there that look like that is the soup du jour. But I'm not positive yet. You know, I told you in the very beginning, one of my things that I was very unsure about is whether or not Trump was ready to drop the hammer. I wish he was. I hope he is. Let's go ahead and skip the break. We've just got so much to cover.
[00:40:45] So little time. Anyway, there's a big, huge story that Lance has. Lance, Donald Trump is going on the offensive in America. It all relates to AI. Lance? Yeah. So, you know, I've been researching another project. And when I saw this announcement by Trump and I saw the initiative and I saw the commitment for investment.
[00:41:12] So what we're talking about for the audience, so I can share this, is Project Stargate, which I find the name interesting in itself because many people probably remember the old shows about Stargate and a lot of conspiracy theories about portals to other planets that were used by alien beings called Stargates. So interesting choice of name. I'm not saying this is relevant necessarily to this AI investment. Maybe it is. Maybe it isn't. But he's talking about a monumental $500 billion investment into AI in this Project Stargate.
[00:41:41] They're going to start with $100 billion. Allegedly, it's going to create over 100,000 American jobs. And it's a collaborative effort with a bunch of industry titans you guys probably know, like OpenAI, SoftBank, and Oracle. Larry Ellison being a key person involved in it. Now, one of the things I'm wondering is all these close discussions over the last 60 days of Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
[00:42:07] I have come up with a theory that Musk was very relevant to this occurring. He made this announcement, Trump, for what he was going to do. But I'm not positive that Musk isn't behind it. I'm going to tell you why. There's a project that I want everybody out in the audience to go look at. It's called Project Colossus. It's in Tennessee. And it is the most powerful AI supercomputer ever built so far.
[00:42:37] There isn't anybody that has a bigger supercomputer than Elon Musk does at the moment. Now, my point is, this is a $500 billion investment commitment by the United States and other companies that want to be part of this. So let's be clear to people until they understand. A half a trillion dollars, right? Yeah. I mean, it's a colossal number. Now, it's going to create 100,000 jobs immediately. It's a monumental undertaking. You have to look at it from that perspective. And, of course, they're concerned.
[00:43:06] The statement he made publicly is that he's worried about China's forward movement. And I've heard this. China's really trying to do the same thing. They're a competitor. There's other competitors. But China's one of the biggest. It's at the forefront. And I think this is interesting. You know, Sam, we got the media clip. Let's start with that. And then I'm going to start tying this whole thing together. All right. So this is the three CEOs. You guys are going to want to hear this because I have a theory on what's really going on. All right. Here's the clip. It's the three CEOs Liz clip that we want to play. And then we'll come back and talk about it. We're talking about what? Project Colossus?
[00:43:36] No. And we're talking about this is project what now? No. This is the Stargate project. All right. So I want to make it clear. Stargate project. And you referred to this Colossus thing, which just tells you their way into AI. It's not related to this story necessarily, right? Not necessarily. But I have some sources to tell me, in fact, it may very well be. Well, and that's the point. All right. Here's the clip. It's my honor to welcome three of the world's leading technology CEOs.
[00:44:03] And in the case of Larry, Larry Ellison, it's well beyond technology. He's sort of CEO of everything. He's an amazing man and an amazing business person. But to announce the largest AI infrastructure project by far in history, and it's all taking place right here in America. As you know, there's great competition for AI and other things.
[00:44:31] And they're coming in at the highest level. We're joined by Oracle Executive Chairman Larry Ellison, SoftBank CEO, my friend Masa. Masa Yoshisan and CEO of OpenAI. And I would say the by far the leading expert based on everything I read, Sam Altman. So that's great that you're coming in together.
[00:44:59] That's a massive group of talent and money together. These world leading technology giants are announcing the formation of Stargate. So put that name down in your books because I think you're going to hear a lot about it in the future, a new American company that will invest $500 billion at least in AI infrastructure in the United States and very, very quickly moving very rapidly, creating over 100,000
[00:45:28] American jobs almost immediately. This monumental undertaking is a resounding declaration of confidence in America's potential under a new president. Let me be a new president. I didn't say it. They did. So I appreciate that, fellas. But it'll ensure the future of technology. What we want to do is we want to keep it in this country. China is a competitor and others are competitors.
[00:45:54] We want we want it to be in this country and we're making it available. Lance. OK, let me let me start giving just let me just throw some breadcrumbs down here. Let's build the trail here a little bit. So first of all, it's interesting that the participating parties are Arm, which is a big tech company in the AI world when it comes to integration. Microsoft, NVIDIA, Oracle and OpenAI and SoftBank.
[00:46:25] So you look at that strategy, but NVIDIA is in it, right? That's the first breadcrumb because we know that Elon Musk is working directly. And of course, they've got the most powerful chip in the world right now. Yeah, NVIDIA has been a nobody. But over the years now, they're one of the biggest. I mean, they're in everything. They are huge. And there's nothing they don't touch almost in the technical technological world. No doubt. And they and they have created the most powerful chip so far, at least that's been announced.
[00:46:53] I'm not saying that there might be some government like China that has a chip somewhere, but they haven't made any announcement about it. That NVIDIA chip is a big deal. Now, let me mention a couple of things that I think they said that maybe they shouldn't have. Number one, this development is being done in Texas. So let me throw this first out to you, Sam. Who else is in Texas? Greg Abbott. Elon Musk.
[00:47:21] The governor and Elon Musk moved there, by the way. Correct. Right. So you've got X in Texas, which is also the home base of Elon Musk at this point. Yeah. You heard all my exes are in Texas. This is true. Yeah. And let me say something. They also mentioned that the build out is currently already underway. Now, that's interesting because they just made the public announcement. I didn't even think they'd authorize. And that's why I mentioned Greg Abbott first, by the way, because you don't roll into a state
[00:47:51] and start a project like this without the governor being aware and involved. Let's be clear. And let me say this. The collaboration that we're seeing here between OpenAI, Sam Altman, and NVIDIA goes all the way back to 2016. And now there's a newer partnership that I think is dated 2020, which is OpenAI and Oracle with Sam Altman. So I'm starting to feel like this project's already been going on.
[00:48:17] I don't know if it was, maybe there was an investment from private parties. But I heard a story. Or from the great state of Texas. That's why I brought it up. So let's talk about that supercomputer, Colossus, for a minute. So that's a supercomputer built by Elon Musk. He did it in record time. They call it XAI Company. Supposedly, it was built to train all the AI chatbots like Grok. Of course, for anybody out there who doesn't know, Grok is the chatbot that comes with premium services over at X.
[00:48:45] And you can create images and you can research stories. And you can write funny posts and create funny memes and all sorts of stuff. But that's not really the interesting part about it. First of all, right now, Colossus is made up of over 100,000 NVIDIA HGX H100 GPUs. Sam, you being the computer guy, this is the largest liquid-cooled GPU cluster in the world. Can you explain to the audience what would that mean in computing power?
[00:49:14] Because we're talking about, I think, thousands, maybe millions of petaflops. Am I right? You're more than right. In fact, it blurs this line in terms of understanding. You know how it's hard to understand the difference? I'll just try to put it on the kitchen table like this. You know how it's hard to understand the difference between a million and a billion? And a billion and a trillion? And a trillion and whatever's next, right? Okay. It's that kind of discussion.
[00:49:40] When you put that kind of GPU power to work, it is next gen to the point where I don't know that we can understand it. Things that would take literally decades to crunch on can be done in seconds. I don't even know how to exponentially explain it except to say it's that mammoth from millions to billions to trillions. It's like that in its repercussions. And the things that it will be able to accomplish and do. Let me just give you one illustration.
[00:50:10] You think your passwords are safe when they're long and they're secure and they're random? Not anymore, buddy. So all I'm telling you is it will change the world stuff. Well, a pretty knowledgeable guide. Is that a good kind of kitchen table? I don't know how to better put it on the kitchen table, but that's what it's like, Lance.
[00:50:27] Well, I want to just give somebody, somebody gave me, and I don't know whether this is correct, so I was told this, that basically if you took every single cell phone, computer, every big network, took all of them combined for the entire globe. That means you were able to link every personal computer to every company computer to every network, and you took all of those as a competitor to Colossus.
[00:50:53] My understanding is Colossus has millions and millions of times the power that all of every other piece of computing power on the entire planet were combined. That's Colossus would outpower them by millions and millions and millions of processing, and I guess it would be petaflops of power. So it doesn't even come close. And this network also is the NVIDIA Spectrum X network, which is the fastest.
[00:51:19] That's why I'm saying millions, billions, and trillions, because the exponential factor on this is hard to even understand, Lance. It is. It's hard for me to even describe it. Now, some people have given me some information. Now, listen to this. Now, of course, it's on this NVIDIA Spectrum X Ethernet, which is the most powerful Ethernet.
[00:51:37] But what people are suggesting to me is when you take Colossus and you combine it with the power and the availability of Starlink, which exceeds the backbone that's currently available on the Ethernet, there is no measurement for what this system can do. So let me give you what they say the purpose was. They actually came out with this when they talked about Colossus and said that it trains Grok. And that that was for – Grok's what I would call a generative AI chatbot. Okay.
[00:52:06] And supposedly it trains all of Grok's family of large language models, all the multilingual models, and it's supposed to make Grok the best AI chatbot. So let me just say this. Grok is the next generation of what you think of as open AI or chat GPT. Okay. Just so people understand. Yeah. It's like the way next version of that, so to speak.
[00:52:23] Well, as an example, I can tell you that right now – and this will be very interesting for a lot of people – they are uploading every single legal document, case, determination, supporting law and statute for all county, federal, and state laws across the United States for the entire history of law in the United States.
[00:52:46] Meaning right back to 1776, right back to when the founders started practicing law, which would have been earlier than 1776. So to the very beginning of law in the United States. Right down to Trump's fake prosecution. Exactly. So this will be something that's never been done.
[00:53:04] So that would mean that if you had access to Colossus as somebody that was fighting a legal case, it would be able to analyze every other determination, every other ruling, every judicial quote, every piece of law ever being determined in any court of law across the United States in a matter of milliseconds. Which I can't imagine what the impact of that's going to be. So that's just one example, and we're going to talk about others. So these guys have got a bunch of partners at Colossus.
[00:53:34] They've got Supermicro. They've got an NVIDIA, of course. They've got Dell. You know, the circle of who's involved in Colossus seems to be getting closer and closer to Larry Ellison, Sam Altman, and the rest of them. And I believe what we're going to see is emerging, or at least maybe not publicly, because it may be a national security interest. This is going to be interesting. Listen, and you've got to stay tuned here, guys, because I'm only giving you the tip of the iceberg yet. Wait till you hear some of the other information we're going to give you when we come back on Liberty Roundtable.
[00:54:03] I did this on purpose because I'm hoping that if anybody starts on the second hour, they'll have to go back to the first hour to listen to the context for this. If you've heard the first hour, you better stay around. It's kind of sneaky. I've done it on purpose, ladies and gentlemen. That's how we roll on the radio. We want to make sure that you're listening, that you're caught up, that you know what's going on. It's called Project Colossus, is it now? No, it's called Project Stargate and Colossus. It's called Operation Take Over the World. Exactly.
[00:54:33] Hang tight, ladies and gentlemen. Lance Miliaccio, the big big man with us. George Valentin missing today. Our prayers are with him and his family. Nothing's wrong. He's just got to make a living, you know? Anyway, we appreciate George and Lance, and God save the Republic. Have a look.
