* FBI Disobeying Order to Release All Epstein Files - Paul Dragu, TheNewAmerican.com

* US Attorney General Pam Bondi was not pleased. She sent FBI Director Kash Patel a letter saying she learned the FBI Field Office in New York was withholding thousands of documents that neither she nor Patel previously knew existed. She demanded everything on Epstein by 8:00 am Friday: Deliver the full and complete Epstein files to my office, including all records, documents, audio and video recordings, and materials related to Jeffrey Epstein and his clients, regardless of how much information was obtained. There will be no withholding or limitations to my or your access.

The New York FBI field office was allegedly hiding Epstein documents from the Trump administration. People need to go to prison for this.

[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, back with you live, ladies and gentlemen, Sam Bushman, Dr. Scott Bradley, freedomsizingsun.com on your radio. This is the broadcast for February the 28th in the year of our Lord, 2025. This is Hour 2 of 2, Promoting God, Family, Country, Protecting Life, Liberty, and Property every day on your radio.

[00:00:42] News that it was refused to use in spades. White House Counselor Alina Hava basically says, hey, we're going to have accountability here. Yes, indeed, we're going to have prosecutions in the wake of the Epstein-List release, but it hasn't even been released. It's a scam. And what I don't understand is when you say you're going to release something, Dr. Bradley, the problem is you and I believe one thing.

[00:01:13] They have a completely different definition of what being released means or declassified means or whatever. You and I think, okay, we're going to get a copy. We can all check it out. No. No. You're going to get a redacted version, and you're going to basically put that out through a few influencers. So the government controls the information, redacts, and does whatever they want to. Then the influencers get it and do whatever they want to do. You and I aren't the wiser. It's kind of like, Dr. Bradley, let me read to you what the Bible says, okay?

[00:01:42] No, you can't have a copy of the Bible, doctor. By golly. I'm going to tell you what the Bible says. You got it? And I'm going, I'm not comfortable with this at all. Not a bit. And they're making it sound like this is some huge, you know, change of the guard. It's not. It's just instead of denying you all access, we're going to just pretend to you that we're giving you this access. Instead of saying you can't know what the Bible says, we're just going to say, I'll tell you what the Bible says. Am I far off on this, doctor?

[00:02:11] Well, it's going through a filter. And the filter, in my opinion, is it's hard to trust it. I mean, we get these things when they have press releases. It's like I've kind of come to believe that if they're going to have a press conference, that's where they put the spin. That's where they put their touch of, you know, endorsement upon something. And it's totally from their fabricated perspective.

[00:02:40] And I would like to see the unvarnished. I'd like to know the truth. I'd like to live by the truth. And then we can make our own decisions. But this conservative influencers kind of thing, what the heck is that? I mean, it might as well be a TikTok star or something like that. No, it is. I don't know if you know, that's exactly what it is. It's just absurd to me that when they say they're releasing the public.

[00:03:07] These influencers are TikTok stars, they're Instagram stars, they're YouTube stars, they're these kind of things. And they've just managed to garner a following or whatever, right? Well, they're all grins when they're all standing there with their little portfolio binder in their hands. But I got a question. Do you believe the release of that's just a binder? Is that all we got on Jeff? Jeff? Well, there's five people. On this image I'm looking at, there's five binders with five people holding them. They're the same binder. Each person's got just a copy, right?

[00:03:37] Maybe that may be true. I'm assuming there's more information there than there probably really is. And now that you mention that, probably everybody got their own copy. I got my own copy, baby. I'm good to go. No, you're not anybody. You're not an influencer enough to get a copy. Never mind that I even signed up to be on the press corps with the whitehouse.gov slash new media. I didn't get one. I'm waiting for my binder, and it's not here. But even if I get a binder, I'm just thinking one little binder on Jeffrey Epstein.

[00:04:07] They've got to have thousands of pages on this clown. This clown was literally guilty as a sex offender and everything else. He went through the courts. He had all kinds of properties, internationally connected, bigwigs everywhere, multiple properties, tons of money. Ghislaine ain't talking. And the binders are thin, my friend. Well, yeah, there may be inch and a half binders, maybe. Might be just an inch.

[00:04:33] But, you know, like you say, I mean, it would probably be DVD sets that you'd have, you know, disc one, two, three, four, five, whatever, because of all the videos that have been taken. And surely you can't distribute porn, so you can't do that. Well, that may be an issue. It may be all redacted then, right? Well, and see, that's what I'm getting at, though. But this idea that we think that, you know, you've got these smiling influencers. Hey, we're promoting the new media now with these influencers. Who are these handpicked people? Well, Sam, they're conservative.

[00:05:03] Do you got their names, doctor? I don't. I mean, and I don't. Okay, so now I need to go on a hunt. Listen carefully. So I was waiting for the release of the Epstein files there, people. And now what I'm doing after phase one's supposedly released, I'm going, okay, who are the influencers? Who's the group of conservative influencers? Can you try and look this up, JC, if you can find anything on this real quick? I can't type roll it really well and talk. But what I wanted to say is this.

[00:05:30] The group of conservative influencers that got the Jeffrey Epstein thing, who are they? Okay, and then they say they contain few revelations. And if I get one of those, if it contains a few regulations. Well, they're just fluff. Really, that's probably it. I just don't get it. The release will be over 100 pages.

[00:05:59] Man, how many pages do you think they have on Jeffrey Epstein? Okay, hold on, hold on, hold on. So the first person's who? Rogano? Who's Rogano Hanley? Well, this DC Drano political commentator. I don't know who this person is. I mean, they might be. Hold on. I might be a big. I mean, this might be a big influencer. But do you know who that is, Jay? Do you know who that is, Dr. Bradley?

[00:06:28] I've never heard of this individual before. Okay. But they're this massive influencer that justifies that, hey, they need to get this. They're the special ones. All right. Who's the next one? Chaya Rejic. What is it? Libs of TikTok? Yeah, libs of TikTok. Is that like liberals? Yeah, it's a channel on TikTok. It's a channel on TikTok, but is it a conservative?

[00:06:57] It's TikTok, but it's actually on Twitter a lot, too. It's on Twitter. It's on X. But is it libs like liberals? Yeah, it's like libs of TikTok. Well, Jay's coming on. Go ahead, Jay. Yep, libs of TikTok. They outed her, so she didn't usually have her name out, but now people know because the libs doxxed her. But that's one of the people. There's four listed here. Liz Wheeler is the third one. Hold on. Is she liberal? Is she liberal? No. No, she's conservative.

[00:07:27] But she does libs of TikTok. Right, because she kind of lampoons the libs of TikTok. Like, she'll post their stuff and kind of like, this is what they really think. Like, this is crazy. Yeah, no, I understand. Okay, so you know her. Do you trust her as an influencer to release you the whole deal? I think so, yeah. I mean, I would say so. So here's my question. If you trust her, why does it need to go through her? Why doesn't she just upload her binder? I don't know. I don't know. That's a great idea. Send me a copy.

[00:07:57] I would think that that will happen, but here's what I found. There's 15 influencers were on hand. Yeah. And there's one of them, they include conspiracy promoter. Okay. An election denier. I mean, it's just interesting how these loaded. Okay, but wait a minute. Hold on. So you've got these people that are supposedly these influencers that have all these weird names and weird. What about guys that have been in the media forever? Whatever. Like, say me or somebody else.

[00:08:24] And I'm not trying to say that it needs to be about Sam Bushman. What I'm saying is, what about people who have been in the news business for a long time with a lot of credibility? Why would you let election denier and these other, you know, libs, whatever, and this and that, you know, modern day. I mean, I appreciate it. And they might have big followings, but I'm just kind of going, how do these 15 get picked by whom? And why release it to that 15? Why not just upload it and be like, Jeffrey Epstein docs.com. Check it out. Right. Who else is on there?

[00:08:54] Jay. The next one is Liz Wheeler. I've seen her show before. She's done conservative commentary and stuff. All right. So is Liz Wheeler like really important? Why? I mean, why would it go to her? Not Dennis Prager, for instance? I don't know the answer to that. Next one is Dennis Prager. Isn't he Jewish? Jack Posobiec. I've heard of him before. I've seen a telegram channel that he does. So the last three I've seen. Yeah.

[00:09:23] I'm just saying this is very weird. Who put together this cadre of supposed influencers? Who else do you see on there, doctor? Anybody else that matters? Well, I don't know if any of them matter, to tell you the truth, but election denier Scott Pressler and Rogan O'Handley. So hold on. I know Scott Pressler. Okay. Well, I mean, you know, like you're saying. And I'm not doubting these people by any means. I'm not saying. But what I'm saying is what gives those guys special privilege?

[00:09:50] Why is Scott Pressler, for example, more important than, say, Tucker Carlson? I don't think there's any comparison in terms of notoriety. What do you mean? Scott got the doc and Tucker didn't, right? I know. But Tucker's notoriety, he's got probably a thousand times more followers. That's my whole point. That's exactly what I'm getting at. Why this group? What got them on the list? Who decided this? And why do we have to have this limited group for distribution in the first place? I mean, am I asking open, fair questions?

[00:10:20] Well, it's a photo op opportunity, Sam. I think that Glenn Beck should have been there. And Alex Jones, why did Alex Jones not get in on that thing? Come on now. Here's, they call them a group of 15 right-wing influencers. Right-wing? Visited. Yeah, that's what they, see, they have loaded terminology that they denominate these things. All the way through. They do. Yeah, they do.

[00:10:45] It's interesting how, you know, you spend any time, I get my news sources from a lot of different places, and my most accurate ones are generally from overseas. But you have to filter everything based upon biases. And it is interesting to me that the lame-brained, mainstream, traditional media always ladens all of their commentary with terminology. Yeah, like right-wing or whatever. Yeah, or yeah.

[00:11:15] I mean, so these guys are conspiracy theorists or whatever. You know, they laden everything they put out. It's like ladling on the gravy on your mashed potatoes at Thanksgiving. All right. The gravy flavors everything. All right. Well, here's the headline from The New American. TheNewAmerican.com. Dear friends of mine, great people.

[00:11:37] The headline says this, FBI disobeying orders to release all Epstein files. Paul Dragu. Okay. And you look at this and you go, okay, wait a minute. FBI already disobeying orders to release all Epstein files. AP Images. Associated Press. The anticipated release.

[00:12:07] Of new Jeffrey Epstein files. That would include clients lists. Turned out to be. A dud. With no release. Of information. They say it's about 200 pages. Including a series of quote flight logs. On Epstein's private jet. Nicknamed Lolita Express. With a partly redacted. Contacts list. And a redacted. List of. Uh.

[00:12:38] What do they call this thing? Mass uses. Um. Was released. U.S. Attorney Pam Bondi was not pleased. She sent a letter to Kash Patel. FBI director. Saying she learned the FBI field offices. Was withholding thousands of documents. With. With. Which. Neither she. Nor Kash Patel knew. Even existed.

[00:13:10] She said. So now delete. You know. Send them all to my office. We got to get this done. We got to. Okay. But here's my question. If people did not obey. Are they going to prison? Doctor? Doctor. Well it seemed like at the very very very least. They ought to be probably put on. Not just report. But on some kind of. Leave. Until investigation can be. Unpaid. Well sure. I mean that's one part. Kind of lead status. Now again.

[00:13:39] There's probably. People that haven't. I mean. Maybe there is a good excuse. I don't know. I mean. You know. Boy. I didn't have time to read it last night. Whatever. I don't know. The dog ate my homework. I don't know. But the fact of the matter is. That there ought to be some kind of consequence. Let's put these people. Out to pasture. And figure out. Whether or not. They're. You know. They're trying to fulfill their job. As directed. I mean. There's a federal bureau of investigation. They did an investigation. Let's see the documentation. You know.

[00:14:09] Let's do it. Well. And my question is. So. Pam Bundy says she's livid. But how livid do you think she really is. Doctor. Think she's really mad. On a scale of one to ten. I don't know. Six. Four. I don't know. I mean. It's hard to ascertain a lot of these things. They're very. So here's my question. Just stop for a minute. I'm not very smart. You got to help me with these things. I'm just kind of like a redneck. You know. I just. You got to tell me like five or six times how it works and everything. She says. Hey.

[00:14:40] Deliver the full and complete Epstein files. To my office. Including all records. Documents. Video recordings. And materials related to Jeffrey Epstein and his clients. Regardless. Of how much information was obtained. There will be no withholding or limitations to my access. Now. That sounds like appropriate. Yeah. I like that. Well. I got a question. Why does it have to go to her office? Well. Why not just release. Just put it out on the internet man.

[00:15:11] Well. I don't know. Epsteinholycrap.com. Whatever you want to do. Right. Again. The victims and those should be protected. I think. I get it. I agree. But that's easily done though. That's a. That's a. That's a. You know. Few hour exercise with the right technology. I get it. I don't have any problem with that. It's kind of like when they release the JFK files. I don't have a problem if there's some weird reason. That there's a legitimate. You know. Redacting of something that's. That's.

[00:15:40] That's relatable. And. Okay. I don't have a problem with that. The problem is we're using that redacted idea to release everything but redact it so much that it means nothing in the end of the day. And that's my problem. Why does it have to go to Pam Bondi's office? Yeah. Well. It's. It may be somewhat of a. You know. A stopping off point. But it sure should. Shouldn't it already be at Cash Patel's office? It should be pretty transparent. Well. Patel's got the FBI. Bondi's the boss. I mean. She. You look at her attorney general. I mean. She's. Yeah.

[00:16:10] She's got a pretty high. But what I'm saying is wouldn't it already be at Cash Patel's office? Well. Patel's even saying he hasn't seen it. So wait a minute. You tell me that 15 influencers got this sucker yesterday and Cash Patel and Pam Bondi haven't seen it? Well. To tell you the truth. What they. The influencers got is a highly filtered. High. Everybody's being punked here. People. I'm telling you right now. Yeah.

[00:16:40] Pam Bondi saying. Hey. I haven't seen it. And she wrote a letter to Cash Patel and he's like I ain't seen it either. We didn't even know this stuff existed. So what if they turn it all over and then in five years you find out well we had a whole bunch of 20,000 pages that we didn't know existed then. Then what? Yeah. They're. Like I say there's got to be consequences for this reluctance to participate in a direct order. Folks I don't mean to be rude. This is an absolute clown show.

[00:17:09] They're directly disobeying in order to release the files. We've discovered thousands of pages that didn't exist. We picked 15 influencers and rolled out a couple of hundred pages of a nothing burger. And now don't worry Pam's ticked. Pam's really ticked off people. Carl I don't mean to be rude but this is just fascinating to me. It's stonewalling. It's really basically what it comes down to.

[00:17:40] So deliver the full and complete to my office. Now how are you going to know if it's full and complete if they disobeyed in order to give it to you in the first place and now you discover there's more documents and now you say give me the whole thing. How are you going to know? Well there's got to be a penalty for something that didn't. There's no penalty. What penalty is that? Chop their hands off. I don't know. Put them in prison. You know fire them. I don't know. But the fact of the matter is that there's got to be consequences. And if the material exists it should be deliverable.

[00:18:11] They say there will be no cover-ups. No missing documents. No stone left unturned. Anyone from the prior or the current bureau who undermines this will be what? Yeah. Yeah. The New York field office was hiding Epstein documents from the quote Trump administration. Now question for you. Why would New York even have those files? Doctor?

[00:18:37] There was probably an investigation being carried out because of a jurisdictional issue I'm guessing. And Epstein had a headquarters operation and he was put in a New York prison.

[00:18:50] You know you can see how there would be some of the investigative material that would be housed in New York because of you know how the operation was carried out by both Jeffrey Epstein and as well as who was you know gathering the information and participated in his incarceration. I mean you know you can see how that would possibly be. I mean it's certainly not going to be in a Salt Lake City office although I guess we could think about that. But at any rate. Now listen.

[00:19:19] Bondi also ordered Kash Patel to investigate why her order was not followed. So what do you think that's going to come back and show you doctor? Well I think it'll be another obfuscated you know worded and redacted and you know it just it doesn't make any sense. I mean these people. I got a question. Should we waterboard FBI non-compliant personnel? I'm philosophically opposed to waterboarding.

[00:19:47] And I'm 100% more than philosophically opposed to it. I'm 100% opposed to it. I'm making a point though because wasn't that the day with the George Bush clowns back in the day? Hey waterboard everybody and that's that's not even torture. It's fine. No big deal. It's all good. If you knew the if you knew the history of waterboarding you would say. Oh you would know it's evil as all get out. The United States has been guilty of crimes against humanity. Of criminal hate crimes. Oh boy. Aren't those hate crimes if you waterboard people? Is that a hate crime doctor?

[00:20:16] Yeah and it was used thousands of times during the quote unquote Philippine insurrection. Where military officers and personnel waterboarded tribal chieftains and everything like that. More than half of them resulted in their deaths by the way. This isn't torture according to the Bush administration. I mean it's a horrific kind of thing. You know strong men break down instantly under this kind of thing.

[00:20:41] And it's it's you know the people the people that have been in this government have been in favor of horrific things for so many years now. And and we just I I just can't imagine that our society puts up with this. And of course and by the way I'm not really saying we should waterboard anybody. I'm not saying that I know be very clear. I'm against it a thousand percent philosophically and every other reason. And I think we're guilty of war crimes.

[00:21:08] We waterboarded people personally and I think it's absolutely abuse. It's wrong. It won't get you anywhere. You'll get false confessions. And we psychologists know all this. It's bogus. OK. But I'm making a point here which is man Pam's going to get to the bottom of it and and and cash. They're going to get to the bottom of it. And my response is how are they going to know they're at the bottom of it. That's it. That's a good that's a good question. It is. I don't think you can know because if you're like hey they they withheld documents from us.

[00:21:37] Well how do you know they won't withhold again. How do you know they're not in the Montana office of the FBI. I'm joking but but I'm serious at the same time. I'm joking because I doubt there's really Epstein files in Montana. But my point is how do you know. How are you going to know. And they say we're going to get to the bottom of this and we're going to create accountability. It's a new era for the FBI. I don't see it doctor.

[00:22:01] Well I would love to see some evidence that would counteract what your suspicions are. I would like to see a transparency begin to develop that the American people thought they could trust them. Now again I've the FBI exists on an unconstitutional kind of charter to begin with. So as long as hold on hold on with that then if it exists on unconstitutional premise. Then it can never ever ever ever.

[00:22:30] Be accountable or legitimate because it's illegitimate from the start doctor. Yeah it's got it's a fatally flawed organization and just doesn't have a constitutional root. Now do I think Kash Patel is an honest person. Yes I do. Do I think he'll do his best to get to the bottom of it. Yes I do. Did I publicly endorse him in writing. Yes I did. Okay so I'm not downing Kash Patel about this. What I'm saying is that you have too many deep state clowns.

[00:22:58] That are undermining everything Trump and Kash and Pam in this case are trying to do here. And I believe that as long as you leave those clowns that are undermining you around. You will never get to the bottom of it. So instead of seeing a list of 15 influencers that have been punked and given special privilege. At the trough of the press corps. At the expense of the rest of us. I would like to see it completely released. And furthermore what I'd like to see is.

[00:23:24] I'd like to see a list of names of who participated in the withholding of these documents. And the disobeying of the orders from the attorney general of the United States of America. At the FBI level. I want to see their names doctor. Well they probably should appear on a list that Doge puts out about some layoffs. You know I mean. You look at that and you say wow there's a target for you. So for every J6 bed that was you know released somebody.

[00:23:52] What if we put one of these FBI clowns in their spot? Hey there's a thought. I'm just saying I don't mean to be rude here. And I'm not saying we should avoid due process at all. Don't misunderstand me ladies and gentlemen. I'm not for vigilante justice in any way shape or form. I want due process for everyone. But I'm telling you right now. Unless we take off the gloves. The deep state is going to swamp Trump. Trump, Cash, Pam. All of them. Okay. FBI disobeying order. What does that mean?

[00:24:22] Did the FBI do that or did individuals do that? And rather than the headline saying FBI did this. I'd like to see individuals names. Who did this? Who's doing this? Who's not willing to obey? Why don't we see. You know they broke into Roger Stone's house at 6 a.m. With CNN president or whatever. Let's do that to these clowns. Let's bring them to justice people.

I'm Rich Thomason. President Trump is set to sign an executive order designating English the official language of the United States.

He's visiting the White House today. Ukrainian President Zelensky expected to sign an agreement granting the U.S. mining and development rights to Ukraine's vast deposits of rare earth minerals, a critical element in modern tech. President Trump says it's a good deal for both countries.

[00:25:39] The minerals agreement will provide the basis for a more sustainable future relationship between the United States and Ukraine and thus stimulate the long-term prosperity that will help the Ukrainians rebuild their country. Mr. Trump says a deal will also allow the U.S. to recoup the billions in wartime aid it has sent to Ukraine. The Social Security Administration preparing to lay off at least 7,000 members of its workforce of 60,000.

[00:26:07] And by the time all is said and done, SSA's workforce could eventually be cut in half. It's unclear how the layoffs will directly impact the benefits of the 72.5 million beneficiaries, including retirees and children who receive retirement and disability benefits. However, advocates and Democratic lawmakers warn that layoffs will reduce the agency's ability to serve recipients in a timely manner.

[00:26:29] The layoffs are part of the Trump administration's intensified efforts to shrink the size of the federal workforce through the Department of Government Efficiency run by Trump advisor Elon Musk. Bernie Bennett reporting. Americans pulled the first strings tight last month, a two-tenths of one percent drop in consumer spending in January from the month before.

[00:30:13] Casting live from atop the Rocky Mountains, the crossroads of the West, you are listening to the Liberty Roundtable Radio Talk Show. The FBI in New York buried thousands of pages of Epstein secrets. Candace Hathaway over at the Blaze with this details. Liz Wheeler got special access to a binder containing Jeffrey Epstein details.

[00:30:44] Yeah. The revealed information says that the FBI buried thousands of files, refusing to turn them over to the Trump administration, which had promised to release the information to the American people. Now, Pam Bondi said, I'm ticked about this, and I'm telling you right now, you better have this stuff at my office, 8 a.m. Eastern today. So just so you know, that was how long ago, doctor?

[00:31:13] Three hours ago and three and a half hours? Well, yeah, it's 9.30 Mountain Time, so you can do the math. You know, there are a couple hours ahead of us. Yeah, so 11.30, three and a half hours. All right. And I'm saying, hey, are they busting down the door of somebody? I don't think she has them. I don't see a single news statement saying that they complied. So they refuse to turn it over to the administration. They lie. No one knows they exist. They find out. They demand they turn them over, and now they're refusing. And now the deadline's already passed, and they're still refusing.

[00:31:46] What do you say to that? They ultimately report to her, and I guess that has to have consequences. It's just, you know, let's put some teeth into the way things are handled, you know. The FBI never disclosed the existence of these files. And so in the release is a letter written by Attorney General Pam Bondi to FBI Director Cash Patel, detailing her discovery that many documents have been withheld from the office.

[00:32:17] Before you came into office, she says, I requested the full and complete files related to Jeffrey Epstein, she stated. Bondi explained that she received roughly 200 pages of documents in return, noting that they consisted primarily of flight logs, list of contacts, list of victims' names, and phone numbers. And so they released the fact that they got punked is all they released, doctor.

[00:32:48] And so they said, yeah, it seems pretty apparent that that's kind of what happened, you know. Now, listen, this Liz Wheeler, or this Wheeler lady says, I got a binder of Eckstein files. Exclusive. So now she's got an exclusive with her and 14 other people on this, quote, mass release. Oh, they say the information in the binder is publicly available on the DOJ website.

[00:33:18] Is that on the hate crime section of the DOJ website or what? And then they give me this link. Contacts is written by people who use X. Anyway, I just look at this thing and I go, man, I know I'm spending a lot of time on it, but here's the deal. She said the FBI repeatedly assured her that they gave her all the documents. However, a source later revealed to Pam Bondi that many more documents have been withheld.

[00:33:48] Late yesterday, I learned from a source that the FBI field office in the state of New York is in possession of thousands of pages of documents related to the investigation and the indictment of Jeffrey Epstein. She concluded, despite my repeated requests, the FBI not only didn't turn it over, but they never even let me know these files existed. Yeah. Yeah.

[00:34:15] She says, hey, when you found this out, Cash, I just found that out, too. She noted that the FBI has agreed to hand over the remaining documents by 8 a.m. Friday. So then Pam Bondi vowed to protect the victims in her office as they released the information. Now, I get that and I support that. Right. Right.

[00:34:45] But would they really have all the victims throughout all these thousands of pages or they just have the victims in a list or what? OK, I don't know. But how long do you think until we should be seeing this stuff if it was really turned over at 8 a.m., doctor? Well, it seems like it would be a quicker turnaround than the old decades we've waited for some of this other stuff. I mean, come on, let's let's have a little bit of, you know, let's come in and take care of the business. We've made promises.

[00:35:15] Let's deliver on them. So I don't know how quick they should have them. And like I say, I do support limited redactings. I get it. I agree that you got to protect the innocent. I have no problem with that. But what I see is you've got this, you know, redaction big enough for a truck to drive through to where we're going to get nothing. All right. And enough of that. Next story of interest that I find. So Tom Holman is in the battle of his life on the border.

[00:35:42] And whenever he conduct raids, I guess the raid details got leaked, preventing the raids from going as planned, putting government agents in harm's way, doctor. And this has been a big battle. You've got literally George Soros owned United States radio stations doxing some of the people that are conducting the raids.

[00:36:03] And participating going to get you've got AOC, this clown congresswoman from New York, literally teaching illegal aliens how to remain in the country and exploit our laws. In other words, drive trucks through loopholes in the law to stay in this country and how to fend off obeying the law. Well, anyway, then they leaked and put a lot of these agents in harm's way. Now the headline says this leakers of ice operations have been found.

[00:36:32] We'll be fired. Christy Noem says the epoch times dot com. Now, if they're going to be fired, are we going to see their names? Are we going to see who did this? And are they going to be fired? Well, that's fine to fire somebody. But are they going to be arrested? For their criminal activity? Putting harm, you know, government agents in harm's way. Again, another threat of accountability. But so far, I ain't seeing it. And I'm not here to attack people.

[00:37:01] I think Kash Patel needs some time to get his feet under him. I think that Pam Bonney needs time. I think Trump's only been in office for a short time. I get all this. But I'm telling you right now, I don't see any move towards real accountability. So these people are going to be fired. We don't even know who they are. Are they going to get fired and hired by the media? Wow, that's a big firing. You leave government, you make 10 times more money in the media, and then you get cycled back into government 20 years ago when everybody forgets about it? Is that where we are, doctor?

[00:37:28] Well, it does seem like there's been criminal activity, that the criminal activity needs to be pursued, due process needs to happen, and the consequences that are, you know, associated with that need to be followed up on. You know, I think sometimes this fire-ready aim kind of thing is a real dangerous thing. I mean, I think, you know, you talk about doxing somebody and having some kind of, you know,

[00:37:57] response by people that are literally going to go put them in harm's way because their name came out and they're in a public setting now. You know, there's got to be wisdom and stuff like that. But I think the follow-on, you look at the Fifth Amendment, for example. You have a grand jury that examines evidence, and then they decide whether or not there's

[00:38:23] a, you know, any reasonable cause for indictment and so on and so forth. You know, let's follow the process. You don't have to throw everybody to the dogs, you know, right, just because they're still trying to figure something out. But let's take action and let's close the leaks and let's fix the, you know, incompetence and everything else that's there and the reluctance to bring truth forward.

[00:38:49] All of those kind of things, there's a process we can go through, and I think it'll be, you know, ultimately, you know, we'll get to the bottom of it. I think that trying to solve it, you know, in a half an hour because somebody was holding out, that may have long-term consequences that aren't right either. So let's make sure we do it the right way. Oh, yes. I don't think we need to solve it in three hours. What I do think we need to say is this. These people lied to me when I requested these documents in the first place. They withheld information from me. It's a criminal offense.

[00:39:18] Then I told them to release it to me by 8 a.m. on Friday. So I want a news press release out saying they delivered all of it. Or they didn't. And if they didn't, I want to see people arrested. I mean, we can let due process happen. I get it. But that's what they did to the J6ers. They arrested people. They let people literally languish in prison for years. We had on one guy with you, Dr. Bradley, where at the end of the day, he served for a long time. And then he was guilty of nothing, just like Evan Bundy.

[00:39:48] So why can't we arrest these guys while due process happens? I'm in support of due process. I don't want vigilante justice in any way. But I do need some accountability here. I do need some action somewhere sometime. You know, you talk about two wrongs making a right. You know, you bring up a lot of really egregious things that happen to save the J6ers. Yes.

[00:40:11] And just because an injustice was done to them, we've got to make sure that we use the appropriate processes to do. Absolutely. Everybody's innocent until proven guilty. Right. That's one of our philosophies. Well, I believe that. Yes. That's the way it should be in America. That hasn't been the way it's been. But I support that view. Yes. Right. And so what I'm saying is let's use the processes that are put in place and we'll I think we'll get to the bottom of it.

[00:40:38] I think that the founding fathers, if there was a bias at all in the original intent of the American founding fathers in terms of the judicial system, it was in favor of the accused to make sure that they did not end up having. And by the way, I support that even for these criminals. Right. Right. So so I guess what I'm saying is let's let's be let's go about this with wisdom and with with the pure intent that the American founding fathers had. Amen.

[00:41:07] And we'll get to the bottom of it. But let's also put a lot of pressure so that this doesn't get just swept under the rug like we've seen over and over and over. So whether we're talking about the Jeffrey Epstein files, whether we're talking about the folks that doxed all these people that are involved in the ICE operations. Well, now let's move to the next one. Headline says Doge investigation uncovers USAID slush funds. So now we've got slush funds here.

[00:41:38] These, you know, liberals and all this have said, oh, my gosh, how dare Donald do this and that he can't do this. He can't do that. And all Donald was saying is I want to find out where the money's being spent. Now we find out there's a slush fund, doctor. Let's let's just go here and say, did we expect that? Absolutely. I agree. But it takes two seconds to find out who put the slush fund in place, who's managing it, who has access to it right now. Right. And let's go arrest those people today.

[00:42:06] Well, let's let's do our due diligence or investigation and then put bring to bring that to light. And let's let's have the consequences as they should be on that. I think slush funds have existed almost everywhere. Well, they have. And they do. The president has tons of those things that they give him some kind of, you know, nobody has any right to spend money out of a slush fund. Huh? No, they just don't. I mean, Congress has a responsibility to oversee these things.

[00:42:36] There's nothing in the Constitution that says you can create a slush fund anywhere, anytime. That's true. There are processes that have to be done in order to, you know, to spend money. And there's safeguards in place constitutionally. So, yeah, I. The very term slush means, hey, we don't know what we're going to use it for. We'll use it for what we think and want and whatever. There's no authority that Congress has to do that under any circumstances. Right. And, you know, there's certain things.

[00:43:06] Let's say, for example, if there's a black ops kind of thing where you're collecting intelligence to protect the United States and so on, you don't have to have a public disclosure of, you know, who was involved and what they were spending the money on and what information they were looking for and so on and so forth. I mean, there are things that for the security of the nation that have to be done in a less than complete public disclosure kind of environment.

[00:43:35] So that's different than a slush fund, though. Well, some people would call that kind of thing a slush fund. You know, I don't know, you know, if. And I would say it's not. It's designated for general purposes. Exactly what every penny will be spent on should have receipts and accountability for it. But. I get the flexibility. But a fund that's a slush fund is a fund raised.

[00:44:00] For undesignated purposes, oftentimes for corrupt purposes, such as a bribery or this or that. It's the counts used for miscellaneous income. And expenses, particularly when it's corrupt or illegal. They say originally. Listen to this. Originally, a contingent fund.

[00:44:25] Fund appropriated annually by Congress to be administered at the discretion of the president. All I can tell you is every way I look at this, I just go U.S. AID slash fund. Well, then the AID thing is unconstitutional anyway. It truly is a. But but let's just say, for example, the president under the department had.

[00:44:52] Let's let's just go back to the Benghazi thing with the U.S., you know, the embassy and no rescue squad and all this kind of stuff. You've got to have the flexibility to say, I'm going to respond to that on a real time basis. And then go back to Congress and say, hey, guys, you know what? We're kind of under fire here at this embassy. And I'm wondering if you guys might hurry up a bill through that I can I can get a team in there to to get these guys out.

[00:45:18] I mean, there's got to be something that's not so completely limited and isolated. And that's right. Every line. There doesn't have to be every line item for every dollar. I get that. And I understand the reasons. But let me explain it like this. Slush funds are like executive orders. Do they have a place and a legitimate purpose if used properly? Yes, they do. But on the back end of that needs to be accountability. Slush funds say, hey, you've got a little bit of money.

[00:45:48] And with a little bit of lateral ability on this thing. But in the end of the day, I want you to document the receipts that relate to make sure they're within scope. Same with an executive order. You have the right to run your department with, you know, orders. Hey, I'm the president and I'm running the executive department this way. And I'm going to order. We need to have, you know, the toilet paper replenished to the White House or whatever you got. OK, I get that. And I support that. But what we're doing under this executive order is we're saying you could do whatever you want.

[00:46:13] What we're doing with these slush funds is saying we can gather whatever monies we want and use it for whatever we want. And all these terms are being exploited by immoral people is what's happening. Same thing with the release of these documents. I support minimal redactions. But what we're doing is redacting everything under this idea that it's all classified. Or if we're forced to unclassify it, fine. It's not classified, but it's redacted. And so we're driving trucks through these well-intended purposes and making a mockery of them in the Republic, doctor.

[00:46:41] Well, we do make some pretty broad bad decisions. There's this authorization for use of military force. That stuff. We're still going to war right now in this very moment that we're speaking based upon that, which happened, you know, 20, almost two dozen years ago. And they're still saying, oh, yeah, we can go to war in Western Africa based upon this authorization of use for military funds. Well, no, we really can't.

[00:47:10] They're really way too open-ended. So let's get wise in how we put those things together. And ultimately, I think we'll get a better control of what government ought to be used for instead of just, you know, willy-nilly. Hey, you know, here's a blank check. Go spend it somewhere. Fill in the numbers as you need them, you know. And let's be very clear. I'm not trying to attack the Trump administration. I think a lot of what they're doing is great news.

[00:47:35] I'm not attacking Pam Bondi for discovering this and calling accountability or Kash Patel. I'm not downing any of these people. What I'm saying is we, the people, better get behind them, and we better point them in the right direction, which means due process for even the bad guys, even the guys that were incensed about. Due process is great. We need that. We don't want to, you know, stoop to their criminal level. We want to uphold the law. They deserve a jury of their peers like everybody else. They deserve all these things.

[00:48:03] But at the end of the day, we have got to solve these things and build some credibility. Right now, you know, hey, Kash Patel's like, we're going to fix the FBI. Now, I know he's only been in there a couple of weeks, but so far he's been nothing but punked by these clowns. Right? Yeah, they need to get control of their scope of operation and operate it within all of the bounds and limits that are legal. But they only have a limited amount of time to get this done, too.

[00:48:29] I mean, literally in, what, two weeks, they're going to be up against this debt ceiling discussion. You've got to fund it or the government's going to shut down? Well, that's another thing we could talk about. Well, we don't have time. We're running out of time, I know. But this, the fiasco that the House just went through in regards to their budget process and, you know, the raising the debt limit, trillions of dollars, and cutting taxes, trillions of dollars. You know what?

[00:48:58] It's a big, beautiful bill, as Trump says, but holy cow, we have got, like you say, driving a truck through some of these things. We're going to, it's a really, really faulty process. And they ran it through and got what they wanted, but we don't have any idea what's in that budget bill. We just really don't. I mean, they've got some general parameters operating. Here's what I do know.

[00:49:26] They say that they're cutting government. But if they want to raise the debt ceiling, then they're not cutting government, doctor. Well, it's right. They've, based upon this bill, which we'll see where it ends up, but they're talking about a $4 trillion increase in the debt ceiling. It's like, oh, that sounds like smaller government to me. You say, well, we've got to raise it before we can lower it. Huh? Okay. So, I mean, every step of the way, I've got to go, huh?

[00:49:56] Because there's no understanding it. There just simply isn't. And the only guy that voted against it was Massey in the House. And he was the only one, in my opinion, that was correct. Well, okay. The only Republican that voted against it. I mean, all the Democrats voted against it. And they didn't do it for the right reasons, but they voted against it. But all the Republicans except for Massey voted for it. And where does virtue end by party lines?

[00:50:24] I mean, somebody's got to say, this is screwy or this is a really good deal and let's hear the answers on it, you know. But we just don't get that kind of stuff anymore. I mean, there's so many things. Well, and I'm convinced they'll avoid a government shutdown. They'll come to the rescue with some kick-the-can-down-the-road plan that's just, you know, wrongheaded, that spends us into oblivion, that raises or eliminates the debt ceiling entirely. I don't really see that they've been working on it. What you got is the House passed their own bill.

[00:50:54] The Senate created their own bill and passed it. The two bills are vastly different right now. I thought it was supposed to originate in the House and then go to the Senate. That's right. But here's what will happen. They'll say, oh, we're making really good progress on this, guys. Let's just push it off. Let's do a, you know, continuing resolution. Yeah, since Doe just saved so much money, we've got time now, guys. Right? But they're working on it. And the House and the Senate are getting together.

[00:51:21] We're going to do this on a, you know, some kind of conciliatory kind of reconciliation kind of thing. So let's just not mess with it. Let's just push it down the road a little bit further. You watch. That's exactly what will happen when March 14th rolls around. So it's just astounding to me how we take a deep breath and look the other way. Blink, blink. You know, nothing to see here. Well, and that's why I'm pushing so hard on this accountability discussion.

[00:51:50] I get appropriate redactions at a very minimal level. I get this idea that we want due process for these people. I get all those things. But unless the American people are incensed enough, here's what's going to happen. And this big old scandal about, you know, the FBI punking Cash Patel and Pam Bondi and all this, it's just going to get swept under the rug. Pretty soon we're going to be talking about, by golly, the debt ceiling. By golly, the garbage is going to shut down.

[00:52:15] And if we're not very careful, we're not really going to be on the answers for this thing at all. And if we wait one year, listen carefully, if we wait one year and we don't have enough progress, it's curtains. Because they're going to be up against the midterm elections. And that will distract everybody. They want to be so politically, you know, kind of aligned with what their people back home are interested in.

[00:52:44] And it'll just get kind of, okay, that's okay. We'll let this go for now. We'll take care of it next time. But by golly, we got other things on our minds, you know. So, yeah, it's one of those things. There's got to be some, you know, activity. But let's not be precipitous to the point that it's like Adolf Hitler being given his full reign of everything because the Reichstag fire. By golly, we got to do something now.

[00:53:13] So let's just seize the reins of power. Now we got a national police force and blah, blah, blah. I mean, let's do it in a way that actually preserves. Hold on, and you got a police force on the national level called the FBI that doesn't even obey the attorney general. Right, exactly. I mean, but it's moving in the wrong direction if we just, you know, kind of ramrod it all through and it all collapses on us because they've decided to give up on all the basis of principle.

[00:53:41] You know, there's got to be limits and bounds for everybody. Everybody has a limit and bound put on them. Everybody does. I mean, the president of the United States and everybody. And that was the wise purpose of the founders knowing that, you know what, we're all human. We all are subject to wrongheaded views. The natural man seeks for power. We don't seek for power. We seek to pull it down because we follow the Prince of Peace.

[00:54:10] And I think that the answers to all the problems we face are to realize that we're all God's children, which means we're all in it together. And we can be kind to one another and lead by example and follow the Prince of Peace. If you use the Ten Commandments, I don't think there's a lot of laws you can break if you obey all Ten Commandments. Why don't we start with that simple plan and go from there? God's law has always been and will always be better than man's law. Thanks for being alongside for the ride, Dr. Scott Bradley, freedomsrisingson.com. Check out his weekly webinars and more.
