Kash Patel Busted A Massive Ohio Fraud Ring |EP853

[00:00:00] All men are created equal, but they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights. By Liberty and the Beauty of Mouth. If Liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.

[00:00:33] America, great again. The Big Mig. Good morning and welcome back to The Big Mig Show. Of course, I'm your host, Lance Migliaccio, with my Rise and Grind co-host, George Ballantyne. Of course, it's always edge of the knife on this show, tip of the spear, because if Liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not hear, even when they don't want to hear it. George. Yes. How was your weekend, bro?

[00:01:02] Is this supposed to be with your Ride or Die co-host? Yeah. No, you said Rise and Grind. No, I said, did I say Rise and Grind? Yes, you did. You did. I know I'm right. I almost thought it was Monday. I said, how was your weekend? I'm a little off. I know. You said to ask me how my weekend was backstage. I'm a little off. You should have corrected me then. What's up, buddy? I did correct you. I said, it's not the weekend. It's Friday. What's up? You got plans for the weekend? Let me switch it up. You got plans for the weekend? Oh, shit. How much fucking coffee or nicotine did you have? Yeah.

[00:01:31] I got work to do. 5 a.m. I got work to do. Yeah? Yes. Busy. Yeah, it's that time of year for you. It is. Well, of course, here we are doing what we do, grinding away 24-7, 365.

That chat should just be rocking and rolling. We want you in there. We want to hear your comments. We want to hear your feedback. You know, that's what we do, right? We try to communicate so we can figure out, hey, what do these guys really want? What would they like to hear more of? So, George, big story coming out of Ohio finally, huh? Hold on. Doc Schwartz rated us. I told you that. Did you forget already? You didn't just give him a shout out?

[00:02:31] Oh, no. Go ahead. You do the shout out. How's that? Okay. Dr. Michael Schwartz show just rated our stream. We appreciate you, brother. Make sure you give him a follow. If you could subscribe, subscribe to him. He's got books. Lance has the books. Go check him out. The link's in his website. He's our brother from another mother, but the same father. We always appreciate him. He'll be coming on, what, next Friday? Yeah. I got something special for you, Mike, I think, next Friday. I'm holding something for you. Let me give a quick shout out. No.

[00:02:59] If you'd like to sponsor the Big Mig Show, info at thebigmig.com. That's right, info at thebigmig.com. We love our crypto. We love our gold and silver. Oh, yeah, the Prepper Bar. 62.2-gram Prepper Bar. These babies are perfect for any situation. They're perforated and easily broken down. You can see there's three different denominations. You just snap off as a small piece to make a payment. The guys at Genesis Gold Group came up with this because they realized that walking around with a one-ounce gold coin, a one-ounce silver coin, and trying to cut it with some tin snips wasn't really an effective way to make payments.

[00:03:28] Just in case your U.S. dollar wasn't working, your credit cards were shut off or maxed out, and things were absolutely horrendous. With $40 trillion in debt, you have to question how long can the U.S. dollar go under that debt load? I don't know. I don't have the answer for it. I hope the administration comes up with a plan. So far, I haven't seen anything about balancing the budget. But again, this bar, I don't care whether it's asset protection from inflation, diversification, economic turmoil, or in the case of the Prepper Bar, it's extremely unique utility for barter and trade. It's a perfect gift.

[00:03:58] Everybody likes gold and silver. You get it. You hold it. I've got my gold and silver from a childhood. So does George. And again, you can head over to thebigmicbar.com, thebigmicbar.com. Don't go there now. You don't want to miss any part of the show. Or you can take a picture of that QR code because George puts those up. It's the easiest way to do it. You can head over there. Your promo code is going to be bigmicsilver for 10% off on the silver, bigmicgold for 5% off on the gold.

[00:04:25] Or you can call them at 888-526-7154, 888-526-7154. Tell them the Big Mink show sent you. Tell them about the promo codes. And don't forget, they do IRAs. They do regular bullion purchases. So if you want to invest in any of your IRA and precious metals, these are the guys to do it with. Decades of experience, great reviews. Or you can talk to them also about their crypto product, which we'll tell you about later in the show. But great crypto product. If you want to be involved in crypto, but you don't have the time to management, that's what they do. Head over to thebigmicbar.com.

[00:04:56] Break me off a piece of that prepper bar. So when you found this story about Ohio, George, were you happy? I was happy because I can say I was happy because finally Lance can get some relief. You'd cry about where, you know, all this fraud all the time and cry, you know. You know how Lance does, everybody. Is it crying? Is it really crying? Hold on. Hold on. Let me finish. Please. Thank you. We all know how Lance gets.

[00:05:23] I get like that too sometimes because we want consequences, right? It's not crying. It's just venting our frustrations. You didn't let me finish because you want to jump the gun, Mr. Lance. No, he's crying. It made me twinge because I don't cry. Well. I only cry with my pets. Uh-huh. Right. Okay. Anyway, so yes, it brought me some joy just, you know, because I'm like, oh, Lance will like this finally. Yeah, I'm really emotional about my animals, but otherwise. But the truth is, yes, you're right. You're right. It did make me smile.

[00:05:54] I love seeing these people getting their super fresh rides snatched. So FBI Director Cash Patel, he reveals this massive fraud ring in Ohio. And I guess they filed criminal charges for tens of millions stolen. You know what I found unusual, George? Did you see the picture of these defendants? Did I see the picture of the defendants? I didn't see a ton of Somalians in the pictures. Did you notice that?

[00:06:21] Because, well, this ain't, this is a different, there's a bunch of frauds going on in Ohio, first of all. Yeah. This is not like with the, like the learning centers and stuff. They had that fraud in Ohio with Somalians, but this is a different fraud investigation. I mean, look at that. I was thrown off by that. I expected to see a bunch of Somalians. There's a bunch of the rides they snatched.

[00:06:46] You got McLarens and Rovers and Mercedes and BMWs and Bentleys and Jaguars. I mean, these people were big ball and shot calling on the backs of you, all the Americans, conservatives, and, you know, liberals. You guys should be pissed. They're stealing from you because let's face it, the more theft there is, the less services you can potentially get. I don't care whether it's medical services, you know, Medicaid or Medicare. I don't care whether it's real legitimate PPP loans, SBA loans.

[00:07:14] The more these fraudsters steal, the less it's available for honest, hardworking Americans. So literally the quote is tens of millions of dollars that were supposed to go to kids was stolen allegedly by individuals who work in government. And I think here, listen closely, who worked in government and the private sector thought they could fleece Americans and our treasury, our children of the hard earned dollars, the taxpayer dollars that we provide to support them in their time of need. Well, they got caught. And not only did they get caught, so many others got caught.

[00:07:43] I imagine this is going to, they're going to wheel this out, meaning they'll work from the center of the fraud and work their way out. There'll probably be a lot more indictments connected to this. It sounds like there was a big network. They didn't just take the money. They paraded around the country, exotic cars, luxury goods, social media accounts showing this high life, taking, you know, exotic vacations all over the globe, like a bunch of assholes. I hope the worst for the worst. I'd like to see their sentences get maxed out. I think we have to start throwing the gauntlet all around. It goes, it's going on in California.

[00:08:12] It's going on in New York. It's going on all over the country. It's going on here in Colorado. Colorado. So let's hope that cash doesn't stop here. I'd like to see thousands arrested for what they did because I think it's shitty and it's part of our debt. We spend a bunch of money and then it gets misused and stolen so these people can live an asshole's lifestyle. Well, I say F them. Let's play the clip. Hold on. So part of these individuals, some of them worked for the government that stole this money and some in the private sector, yada, yada.

[00:08:40] But the ones that worked in the government, they should throw the hammer down on them, the gauntlet. Give them the full maximum because they work for the government. You know, we're supposed to be able to trust these people to do the right thing. And here they're not. They're stealing money from the children. Here's the clip. To just highlight some of the work that we are doing. Operation Playground Therapy is what the FBI is here to talk about today. As the attorney general highlighted, literally tens of millions of dollars that was supposed

[00:09:07] to go to kids was stolen, allegedly, by individuals who worked in government and the private sector and thought they could fleece Americans and our treasure, our children, of the hard-earned dollars, the taxpayer dollars that we provide to support them in their time of need. Well, they got caught. And not only did they get caught, so many others got caught. Just take a look at some of the vehicles that are here as part of their ill-gotten gains and proceeds. They didn't just take the money. They paraded it around the country.

[00:09:36] And thanks to this team here, you are seeing what hard work, dedication to the rule of law, and true unified effort across all fronts when no one wants the credit and everyone wants to just do the work. These are the results that we're here to talk about today. Importantly for the FBI, and thanks to Vice President J.D. Vance's vision, he had an idea. He said, hey, you guys have a top 10 most wanted list for all gangbangers, terrorists, narco-traffickers, murderers, and rapists around the world.

[00:10:05] How about we have a top 10 list for most wanted fraudsters? So, Mr. Vice President, thanks to your vision, we're here to deliver, and you see it here today. It is live officially on the FBI website. I want all Americans to take a look at these most wanted individuals and look at the amounts, the tens of millions and billions of dollars in fraud that they have decimated our societies from. We're doing top 10 FBI's most wanted for these criminals? You know, it's true, though.

[00:10:35] Like, when you're looking for suspects or criminals, best way is put their pictures out there, you know, across the country, because we're their best force. I mean, you have only so many agents, but in America, you can see something on TV, also on news, and like, look across from you or something, say, wait, that's the guy that's on TV. Let me call the FBI, get that motherfucker. That's the motherfucker who took money from the kids. Right? Pretty simple. You want to play that clip or no? Yeah, let's play it. Let's go. No, let's go. Let's play it.

[00:11:05] This is the FBI here. This is what Cash Patel was talking about, the 10 most wanted fraudsters list. Pretty cool. I want all Americans to take a look at these most wanted individuals and look at the amounts, the tens of millions and billions of dollars in fraud that they have decimated our societies from. We rely on you. Our best form of information is the American public. Take a look at this top 10 most wanted. Let us know any information. There is no bad piece of information.

[00:11:35] The only bad piece of information is the one you don't give us. So call 1-800-CALL-FBI or go to FBI.gov and help us apprehend more fraudsters. Len, you there? No, I'm here. Go so long. I got to take care of something. I'm just thinking to myself, is that really the biggest fraudsters in the United States? I can appreciate they're on the list, but really, are they in the top 10? We're talking about billions of dollars in fraud.

[00:12:05] Think about Doge. Think about what Elon Musk uncovered. We should have doubled down on that. He shouldn't have been attacked. Think about when the Democrats and even Republicans attacked Elon Musk for doing the American public a service. You really think the guy needed the heat? I mean, let's face it. He's probably going to be the first trillionaire. He's got he's got a really kind of a storybook lifestyle. He built it all himself. He didn't inherit it. Work his ass off. And what do we do? All kinds of people attacked him, including people in Congress.

[00:12:34] And you have to say to yourself, why would people in Congress attack somebody that's uncovering fraud? Common sense would tell you the only reason you attack somebody that's uncovering fraud is maybe you're worried about getting uncovered yourself. That's what I mean. What I want to say to you guys is don't listen. These congressional members that get up there and like one today is bitching about the remodel, the renovations Donald Trump is doing to everything in Washington, D.C. preparing for the 250th anniversary.

[00:13:02] Some guy posted today, is this really what you 77 million Americans voted for? Yeah, I did vote for Washington, D.C. to be beautiful. We've got people from all over the globe. We've got world leaders and diplomats coming in there. I want it to look drop dead gorgeous. That's my opinion, because that's the representation of the country. D.C., although I don't like the 10 mile district of Columbia for a number of reasons. You constitutionalists out there, you understand why. But the point is, don't you want Washington, D.C. to be gorgeous?

[00:13:29] Do you really want a bunch of homeless encampments, fountains that don't work, trash and, you know, the vision pools and everything, all the pollution and everything all over the sculptures, all the defacement by the scumbags in the country that complain about the country. But then they stay here. They bitch about the administration. They bitch about him wanting to build a ballroom, which, by the way, it wasn't only a ballroom. It was a national security center underneath, which these assholes disclosed.

[00:13:53] And to be honest with you, I think they should have been arrested for disclosing national security information because I don't think anybody needed to know about the facility below the ballroom. So those people should be criminally charged. That Secret Service national security hub was supposed to help. And with all the attacks that have been on Donald Trump, I can't blame him for wanting to up the security at the White House. And all kinds of people have done right. Where was all the bitching when Obama used tax dollars to build a basketball court?

[00:14:20] It's not a word, not a squeak when he built the basketball court for his own personal enjoyment. The point is, this ballroom is to entertain these diplomats and foreign leaders in a secure environment where they don't have to go out to a facility where, obviously, you know, trying to protect people. Anybody that's done diplomatic security and understands it, and I did that years ago, it's difficult, especially if you're going into open air environments. It's not just snipers. It's everything. It's walking by people. You never know what's going on or who's there.

[00:14:49] There's all kinds of contact poisons and all kinds of things you're trained in because literally a touch could kill somebody. So I'm telling you right now, the bitchers and moaners and the ones on social media, I see Harry Sisson is back in the saddle. He's a piece of shit. He gets paid out of an agency out of Chicago. He goes on there and throws out these jabs, which you'll notice he got quiet for a while because his money dried up. He's willing to sell his soul, sell his personal account. That's the kind of assholes we have in this country.

[00:15:16] And to me, when you bitch about what they're doing in Washington, D.C., in preparation for our 250th anniversary, you're going to tell me that if any other president besides Donald Trump was doing it, people wouldn't be raving about what he was doing. That ballroom, they should be raving about it. That'll be something that every president moving forward can use for their lifetime and for the American public. So my opinion is shut the hell up. And you should do that. When you're on social media, you see somebody saying something stupid that isn't common sense. Tell them they're stupid.

[00:15:46] That's the one thing that's great about social media. You can call them out. You can do it. Don't sit on the sidelines. You know, it's not just watching the show to get the information. Take action. Tell them you're full of shit, Harry. We know you get paid out of a firm out of Chicago. You'd sell your soul for a dollar. It's not good for the country what he's doing. Stop him. That's what I think anyway. What do you think, George? I mean, I was watching a clip of AOC crying bitch in this morning. Oh, my God.

[00:16:11] And she was talking about, and she said, she goes, he's stealing your money, taxpayer money for the ballroom, this and that, which is not true because it's all donated money. If I was Trump, I would say screw any court that says anything. I'd just keep building it. What are they going to do? Who's going to stop? Who's going to come and stop anybody working at the White House? You ain't going to be able to get in. Secret Service will just keep you out anyway. So just keep building it. And, George, don't you feel like the ballroom, based on what it can be used for, for entertaining diplomats?

[00:16:37] Because the security cost for entertaining diplomats in other facilities is through the roof. In the long term, this ballroom is going to save the American taxpayer money because all the Secret Service protection, all the U.S. Marshall Protection Services, that all costs money. That's overtime. Those are special events. You know, those guys work normal shifts. They get paid overtime.

[00:16:56] You know, so I think, you know, anybody in Congress and even some idiot, even some low IQ dummy like AOC who you know they're grooming to try to make her part of the presidential vice president ticket. And when they put that bulletproof glass around her, like somehow she's that important and she's not that important. I mean, for God's sake, she was a bartender. This is not the brightest and best. They just want another installed stupid puppet. Every time she opens her mouth, she sounds like an idiot. And really, what's she supposed to be doing?

[00:17:26] She's supposed to be working for her constituents. And I don't think talking about a ballroom where it was privately funded is working for her constituents. New York is a cesspool right now. It's awful. Between Mondami and the congressional leadership up there, you know, the governor, it's garbage. I feel bad because I'm from New York. I've never seen New York worse. I'm hearing the stories from my friends back east, and they say it absolutely sucks. So many of them are saying, as soon as I can, I'm getting out of here. Real estate's not doing well. There's a lot of things there.

[00:17:54] And every time you turn around, there's some dumb thing coming out of New York. So you can blame that on the congressional members, the governor, the mayor. It's no different than L.A. You got Governor Newsom, complete jackass. You know the mayoral race is going on for L.A. I mean, you know, the people aren't here. They can't even count votes. I was going to send them, like, the cartoon King Garden or, like, first grade on how to add, subtract. Yeah, maybe some Sesame Street videos, George. I mean, it's Friday, Tuesday.

[00:18:20] You got three days already since the election, and they still count votes. It's crazy. Donald Trump called them out. Well, this is why we need SCOTUS to rule, make a ruling where we have Election Day, where all ballots and everything has to be counted by the end of day. And that's it. It's Election Day. It's not Election Week. It's not Election Month. Election Day. One day. You know what that reminds me of? You have any friends? I have a couple of friends that feel like their birthday. A lot of people do that. Birthday month.

[00:18:50] Yeah, get the fuck out of here. Yeah, birthday month. Get the fuck out of here. Your birthday's one day. Oh, it's my birthday week. No, it's not. Birthday is what it says. That means it's one day. The people that celebrate. So it's the same thing. Donald Trump called them out. He says, you can see they're cheating. They're taking forever. They just found a bunch of mail-in ballots. And he's right. They're just cheating their asses off like they always do. And that's not free and fair elections. That's not the compact and the promise that the government gives the American people that we're going to have free, fair, and honest elections. They have an obligation legally.

[00:19:20] We still don't have it. We've got nothing but a third world country. All right. John Bolton. What do you think, George? Well, I knew this was going to bring joy to you. It does bring a little joy. I did get a little twinge of joy. Thank you for the joy, George. Oh, you're welcome. I mean, so the people that are saying, you know, Trump's going, you know, he's using the DOJ as a Gestapo. This dude right here, John Bolton, is a Republican. Okay. So we're going after anybody and everybody when it comes to this crap.

[00:19:49] So I don't want to hear stuff when the next one is a Democrat, if we ever see it. I'm waiting. But John Bolton, he's expected to plead guilty to mishandle and classified information in order to avoid jail time. Well, I hope he gets, I don't know what sentence they're going to give him, but he should go on a bracelet and house arrest at least for some time. Keep his 77 year old ass in. That's the only part I don't like about this, because if this was a regular person, if it wasn't John Bolton, they would absolutely get jail time.

[00:20:18] They would still pay the fine. They might, because they provided additional information, they might get a 5k1, which is called a downward. He has to pay a $2.25 million fine. But, but that fine, regular Americans, they always have victim's assistance and they all get fines. Everybody gets fines when they go to federal. Okay. Everybody gets them and they're, and they're massive. But normally the fines and the victim assistance fund and the probation don't have anything to do with the fact that this guy's supposed to get five years. Even if he provided valuable assistance, maybe he ratted on some people.

[00:20:48] The end of the day, I don't think this guy should get anything less than two and a half to three years. And I'll be disgusted if he does, because I don't think he's not. That's the deal. He's going to plead guilty to get, to avoid jail time. That's why he's pleading guilty and not going to trial. I mean, he's got 18 counts against him. But, you know, these counts are all for sharing like a thousand pages of sensitive notes with his wife and daughter. But my comment is, George, I know that that's his plea negotiation, right?

[00:21:17] Because he's going to plead guilty and not go to trial. Because he would lose in trial. That's why he's taking the plea to begin with. And in regular cases, George, it doesn't matter if you plead guilty. They might give you six years or an agreement of five. It all depends on your lawyer and what kind of deal you can make. It all depends. The majority of Americans, the majority of Americans. Majority, yeah. Unless you got money with a good lawyer. Having me studied federal law nonstop for a very long period of time now. They don't get that deal.

[00:21:44] If it's a five-year deal, and even when you plea out, they normally say, okay, we'll give you three years instead of five. They normally don't say you might avoid jail time. They don't do that. So I don't think he should be offered anything better than when regular Americans get. All right, play the clip. Yeah, let's do it. Let's, let's. Breaking news. Sources revealing that John Bolton is planning to plead guilty to retaining classified information. That plea will likely keep him, rather, out of prison.

[00:22:12] This stems from a charge, 18 of them, at the end of last year, of keeping a diary-like material of classified information. So it looks like that case is moving forward. You know, likelihood is now settled. All right, now. Yep. I like the charge. I don't like the deal. All right. Scott Besson. He's growing on me, man. He's growing on me, bro. I didn't really pay much attention to Scott Besson prior to this.

[00:22:42] Man, the guy's growing on me. I gotta tell you. You know, he's a, he's, he's, he's, he's a trip. Go ahead, man. This is a great story. And I, I think you guys have to agree the way he's answering, probably the way that George and Lance would probably answer too, if I'd be doing a lot of the same things. I like this guy. Love that. Well, for the last two days, he's been, um, getting hammered with questions, you know, up on the hill. I gotta sneeze. Damn. Hold on. And, you know, he's a very smart guy. He's, he's very articulate. You know, he's, you would look at him.

[00:23:12] He's like, just, if you look at him, it seems, he likes, looks like a very stoic person. But if you get a chance to talk to him, he's actually a funny guy. He's got a great personality, but it doesn't seem like it. And he's like the case of don't judge a book by its cover. He goes, you're right. He seems like kind of a nerdy kind of guy. And that's not even close to that. I love this interaction. I just got to, I want to read this to the audience. He goes, you know, so, so there's representative to bling, of course, a Democrat,

[00:23:40] sent a file containing USAID info. And he goes right away, he goes, why are you bringing up USAID with me? Why? What does that have to do with me? USAID, I do not oversee. I wear many hats in this administration. Not one to do with this. DeBellin, this is payment info. Are you not in charge of the treasury? That is USAID. It was not sourced in treasury. Why are you bringing this up with me? And of course, this guy is interesting. I've got to tell you, you know, I wasn't even sure. I'd heard he was gay. I didn't know he was.

[00:24:09] George and I discussed it. It turns out he is. But this guy is like a stud gay guy. All right. This is stud gay guy. All right. Let's go. Let's play it. Let's just play it. I also found that a DOGE staffer sent an unencrypted file containing USAID payment information and individuals' names to external DOGE personnel at the General Services Administration. Soon after, it was reported no disciplinary action was taken, despite the employee's failure

[00:24:38] to protect federal and non-federal employees, sensitive personal data, and comply with security requirements. So again, Mr. Secretary, when employees who violate IT security rules are not held accountable, what does that message send to agents? Why don't you hold someone accountable? Why are you bringing up USAID with me? Because a DOGE staffer, GAO, found that a DOGE had payment information. Payment information. USAID. I do not oversee.

[00:25:07] I wear many hats in this administration. And this is still, this is a file containing payment information. Are you not in charge also of the Treasury? That has, USAID, that has nothing to do with us. But payment information has nothing to do with you. Again, it was not sourced at the Treasury. Why are you bringing this up with me? So GAO provided six recommendations to address identified weaknesses, including ensuring staff agree to comply with IT.

[00:25:36] So you see, hold on, the big difference between Democrats and Republicans is Republicans are come very prepared. They're very smart. The only one I will say was an acted real stupid was Pam Bondi. When, when you're talking about AG stuff and she says this like things like, oh, well, the stock market's over 50,000. I mean, what the hell? That has nothing to do with nothing. That was, you know, that was one of the cases. But if you look, they're all very professional.

[00:26:06] They hit you back with intellect and facts. And the Democrats are just, this next one, this was from two days ago. This is one of my favorites because he bodied. I mean, he put Senator Wyden, he's another Democrat, he bodied him. Because Wyden here is asking about, you know, he's, he's just rambling, like calling, calling him a capo and the most, and calling Trump administration the most corrupt regime in American history, which is, you know, 100% BS.

[00:26:36] Well, and let me be clear. I've been around some capos. I know you have done George Horses. Like, this isn't even close. They're actually trying to compare Donald Trump to the mafia, saying that a capo, which is, of course, an upper management in the mafia. I'll be honest with you. If, if you want to compare him to a capo, let him act like a capo. Because all you motherfuckers would be in the New Jersey swamps or somewhere else. You guys would be in some oil drums. No, they'd be in the swamps.

[00:27:03] Well, the Long Island, they used to do some stuff out in Long Island where they would stuff people into barrels. In New York, the best place is the big acid tanks. It dissolves everything. But yeah, that's another story another day. But Ron Wyden is a jerk off. I mean, he really is. He's another politician that just says that he's completely full of shit. But Besson brings up about, talks about his son with Epstein and their investments and Rick's Cabernet. Like that just, like when he said that, I'm like, why, what? I mean, it's just beautiful. And I want to add something to that.

[00:27:32] For everybody out there, Rick's Cabaret is currently under indictment for tax evasion, some other charges. They're upper management. So again, I'm not going to say whether or not Rick's is a problem. I don't really know necessarily. But Rick's Cabaret, the holding company for Rick's, they've got federal indictments pending currently right now. So I don't know what kind of an organization they are fully. I know of them. At the end of the day, Wyden, you know, his son being involved. And of course, you know, that probably happened and the connection was made through Wyden.

[00:27:59] You know, this is a guy called the pot calling the kettle black. Ready? Here we go. Yes. Mr. Chairman. Yes. Let's be clear here. Nobody is interested in the ramblings of a capo in the most corrupt regime in American history. We want to get some facts about this deal. That's what we're here for. Thank you. Well, thank you. And I will ask my questions first today.

[00:28:27] And we would like to hear what Adam Wyden and Jeffrey Epstein talked about. Your son's largest investment position was Rick's Cabaret. So did your son and Jeffrey Epstein talk about pole dancing as he begged him for money using your limited credibility? I'm going to proceed with my questions. I had nothing to say, huh? Yeah.

[00:28:56] And that's the problem, right? They get on there and they grandstand within Congress. The speech and debate clause allows them to actually lie in Congress. If you don't believe me, go watch it. And even that speech and debate clause, I don't agree with it. Because I think the fact that you go in as a congressional member, you stand up there with all the pomp and circumstance and the big giant room with the massive wood decks. And it's intimidating. Regular Americans see that and they think, oh, they're telling us the truth because they're in Congress. That's one of the worst places for them to talk. Because within that area, they are literally allowed to lie. That's what the speech and debate clause gives them.

[00:29:26] A horrible thing. I don't know. I understand what it was supposed to be the founders and framers done, but it's been manipulated where they know they can say shit and they will completely go off track, make a statement like a capo, which is horrible. Which by the way, I would consider that if it wasn't a congressional member, somebody else saying something like that convincingly in public, you would be looking at libel. Well, you know what we need? We need to go gangster on all these Republicans and even the rhinos too. You want to bring up capo? Let me go gangster on you guys. Let's see what happens. We'll treat you the right way.

[00:29:56] George, I've got an idea for a position for you and I in Congress. Are you ready? Yeah. We would be the sergeant of arms. And what we would have is a, it would be called the sergeant of arms power slap. And every time a congressional member lies or says something dumb off track where they try to redirect the narrative for a public statement that doesn't have to do with the line of questioning, the evidence to be presented, the facts, I don't care whether under subpoena or testimony. We walk up, you and I, and we give them a slap that we've drawn from like the East Coast to the West Coast.

[00:30:24] They get one powerful power slap across the face. And I think we could condition them like Pablo's dog that they stop lying if they just got cracked across the mug for all the stupid things they say. You guys know, we should have the sergeant at arms power slap for congressional members. I'm more like, for me, I'd rather be behind the scenes. You don't even know I'm there and take care of business. You could do the slapping. You could put a taser underneath the seat of every congressional member. And when they say something stupid, they get zapped. That'd be funny, right? Yeah. I mean, just they get a little electro shock.

[00:30:54] You know how there's a little like vibrating underwears and stuff like that? Yeah. Yeah. They get a little quick zap. And then, oh, well, you see them jolting. Or just put like a shock collar around them. How about this? Shock collar. I've got another good idea. You guys tell me if you like this one. The power slap. You know me. I'm aggressive. I'm thinking about acts of violence. I struggle with it all the time. Recently, I've struggled with it. I'm trying to keep really composed. And here's another idea. How about this? How about we have a big jumbotron?

[00:31:24] An AI is listening to every statement made in the halls of Congress. We have an AI supervisor. And every time they lie or tell a story that isn't true, it runs across the jumbotron and says, this is a lie. And here's why it's a lie. And it fact checks them for everything that comes out of their nasty, shitty, corrupt congressional senatorial mouths. What do you think about that? With a shock collar? Okay. I'm good. I like that. That's a great idea. You want to combine the shock with the jumbotron. I do. Because there needs to be something, too.

[00:31:54] But it'd be good because it would say truth or lie. Yeah. And then you guys would know every time they talk. Lance, the reason why you've got to put a shock collar and not underneath their chairs is because a lot of times they're standing and dressing and stuff. I think it's weird. I think it's weird. I'm okay with the shock collars. I think we could combine shock collars with the jumbotron, the AI jumbotron truth authenticator, right? And then we could add in that they have to wear NASCAR jackets with all their sponsors.

[00:32:19] So when they lie to you about something and you know that they're getting money from Pfizer and they want to say, oh, no, we don't want. We want to have vaccines. We don't want any truth coming out. Now, the jackets, the bigger their sponsor, the bigger the foundation, the bigger the patch. And some of those guys would have, you know, floor-length coats. It'll be tricky to keep up with. But I think for transparency in the American public, that's how we put them on blast. We actually talked to Senator ex-Congressional member Tim Ryan. He liked the power slap idea. I made him laugh when I mentioned it to him.

[00:32:48] We're going to try to float that out there with the administration. So maybe there's a combination. You guys, you can get over there and do it. Okay, let's go, George. There's a new law. More dumb shit. There's a new law in New York. It already passed the House and Senate in New York. It's just waiting for Governor Holchel's signature. And this has got to be top 10 of the dumbest things. New York is getting ready to outlaw the term mother and father on documentation. And their reason is saying because it's outdated.

[00:33:15] And they're saying you should be called gestating parent instead. Father is a non-gestating parent. Isn't gestating really when you're pregnant, I believe? I'd be wrong there. But I just... So, Lance, you're going to... I'm going to call you. You're a fine non-gestating parent. Person. Sorry. I... I'm almost speechless.

[00:33:42] Can you imagine your two-year-old girl instead of saying, Daddy! Trying to say non-gestating person? Yeah. That would be a very difficult first set of words. But my point is, think about... Non-gestating little girl. Okay, we just talked about New York a minute ago. And I said how they're doing all of them, the mayor, the governor, the senators and congressmen, they're all doing a shitty job for New York. The people of New York are pissed off, right? And many of them are moving out. Real estate is going to tank there.

[00:34:11] The commercial real estate is in serious trouble because, of course, during the pandemic, businesses figured it out, but they can still get a reasonable amount of performance. And they can get rid of all that overhead. But think about the stupidity, the amount of time and money and effort to put this on the books to vote. All the paperwork, all the people working behind the scenes. And this is New York's top priority. They got massive homelessness. Their economy is not doing well. Their real estate is tanking. They've had so many big companies move out of New York.

[00:34:40] And their focus and the energy they're putting into what they're going to discuss as far as their government is this crock of shit. I mean, for people in New York, you guys ought to be furious. I mean, honestly, it's like the old pitchforks. I just have a question, everybody. Just bear with Lance. Don't say none. So if I got to be like, hush, little baby. Don't say a word. Just hating parents. Going to buy you a mockingbird. Does that sound right? Just saying.

[00:35:10] You know, the people in New York, I think it's time for tar and pitchforks. I mean, seriously. But this isn't. You've got a bunch of morons running that. The great is supposed to be the greatest city in the world. People all over the globe used to love to go to New York. And it is trash now. And it's awful. What a horrible, horrible thing. Anybody in the chat from New York or New York State or Sydney? Anybody? I mean, listen, it's already passed. It just needs to be signed.

[00:35:38] Whether she's going to sign this or not, I mean. I mean, does that mean, George, on Father's Day, it's going to be called non-gestating person day? In New York? I don't know. I'm just saying because now you can't say father or mother. Wait a minute. Hold on a second. What do they do for? Because they don't want to define really. You know what's funny? So they never want to say what a woman is.

[00:36:06] But meanwhile, they're saying they're defining it with gestating parent, right? In a sense? Yeah. The mother's the gestating person. And the father is the non-gestating person. So. What's a TG? Is it TG? TGGP? I don't know. I mean, that's going to get complicated. They'll need some more letters on the LGBTQ XYZ LMNOP list. Just do the alphabet.

[00:36:36] Just do the alphabet. Yeah. I mean, the point is, yeah. Happy gestating person day. Yeah. For the women out there, this ought to make you cringe. And for people in New York, these people are jackasses that are leading there. It's just horrible. Horrible. It's got nothing to do with Democrats, Republicans. These are stupid, manipulative people wasting your time and money. All right. We're going to take a short break here. You know we have to. The Big Min show is going to be right back. And when we come back, President Trump drops a bomb shot. Hey, I've got to play the video, man.

[00:37:05] I've got to hear the video. Oh, let's play the video. I've got to last jump in the gun. The Big Min show signs this bill sitting on her desk. A new law will make it illegal to call them mother and father. Nate Foy has the details on this. Nate? Hey, Jackie. So, yeah. New York Democrats argue the words mother and father are outdated and need to be replaced with more inclusive terms under state law. All that's needed now is Governor Kathy Hochul's signature. So, if Hochul approves, in New York's family court and in domestic and education law, a

[00:37:33] mother would be labeled as a gestating parent, a father as a non-gestating parent, and paternity proceedings to determine the child's father would be called parentage proceedings. The bill passed the state Senate this week and the state assembly back in March. Governor Hochul proudly calls herself New York's first mom governor. It's unclear if she'll support this change, though. I'm not familiar with what was introduced late last night, so I'll take a look at it.

[00:38:00] I have until the end of the year to review them and make a decision, so I won't be commenting on pending legislation. New York would join other states like Massachusetts, California, Connecticut, and Colorado to change the definition and wording of parents in their state laws. Democrats argue the bill is necessary to accommodate surrogacy cases and same-sex couples. Now, Governor Hochul's up for re-election this year. Her main challenger, Republican Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman tells Fox this morning

[00:38:27] this bill is a continuation of war declared on families by Democrats. Jackie? Nate, thank you. Pretty dumb. Yes, I know. They're talking like, yeah, New York City's a lot of liberal. Long Island some. Staten Island, I think it's mostly red. Upstate New York is a lot of red. I'm sitting there looking at Ultramaga Girl 45, what she's saying.

[00:38:51] However, Ultramaga Girl, it's so dominated by the way they have it rigged, the maps in New York, that it's always a liberal Senate and a liberal house over there, and they pass dumb shit like this. So what do you do? Maybe succeed from New York and just move out of the state. It's a good question. What do you do? New York State is a lot different. It's beautiful up there.

[00:39:21] It really is. And it's a shame that it has to be just a word associated with New York City in a sense with the politics, but whatever. All right. Take us out. All right. We're going to take a short break. When we come back, we'll be talking about Trump's bombshell on Cuba. Big stuff. Big changes on the horizon. Stay tuned. The Big League Show will be right back with George Ballantyne, Lance Migliaccio. You know how we do it. Liberty means anything at all. It's right to tell people what they do not want to hear. A lot of people don't want to hear.

[00:39:50] Common sense, folks. We'll be right back. It's Friday. We're going to rock out. We'll be right back. Don't go nowhere. Real quick.

[00:40:36] We'll be right back.

[00:41:15] We'll be right back. We'll be right back.

[00:42:12] We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back.

[00:43:03] We'll be right back. We'll be right back.

[00:43:36] We'll be right back.

[00:44:06] We'll be right back.

[00:44:09] We'll be right back.

[00:44:58] We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back.

[00:45:21] We'll be right back. We'll be right back.

[00:46:08] We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back.

[00:46:38] We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back.

[00:47:10] We'll be right back. We'll be right back. And as soon as that's done on our way back back we'll be right back. We'll take care of it. We want to help them out. Look, we have a lot of people that voted for Trump. Whether they did or not, it didn't matter but I had 95 percent of the Cubans voted for me. They're unbelievable people. They're energetic. They're entrepreneurial.

[00:47:40] You know, some of the richest people in Miami are Cuban. They're unbelievable. And I'm going to take good care of them. I'm going to let them go back to their land. They want to be back with family. You know, they have a lot of family over there. They've been treated very badly by Cuba. But we're going to treat Cuba well, and we're going to let our people go back and let them invest in Cuba if they'd like. So we have some very good plans for Cuba. But I think, you know, we have to get rid of the regime was very tough, very nasty.

[00:48:10] The difference is now they don't have money coming in. They had a lot of money coming in from Venezuela. They don't have any money coming in. They had oil coming in. They had money coming in. But we're going to take care of Cuba. And you know what? They want us to. The people want us there so bad. Can you imagine if we do that in free Cuba? I wonder if somebody brought it up in the chat. I want to bring it up because the cars there. You have to maintain all those old cars in the 40s, 50s, and they're beautiful.

[00:48:41] As they start wanting to start selling them, people are like, what? We can get how much? Shit, sold. Yeah, exactly. All right. I have to say that this next story gave me internal happiness. Oh, man. You got a lot of internal happiness today with these headlines. It's too much. You know what, George? You put too many stories in here that make me happy. Too much winning, maybe? Too much winning. So you have to read between the lines here.

[00:49:08] And I'm hoping that the lines I'm reading are the ones that are going to happen. So Secretary Rubio, you know we love him on this show. He's the secretary of about 50 departments. He's talking about USAID and the funding and helping NGOs commit fraud. But, of course, they purposefully, and think about that word purposefully, which means that's the mensary of a crime, undermine and contradicted U.S. State Department directors and interest in foreign nations.

[00:49:37] That is de facto treason. Very powerful word when you understand the law. And so they're saying that it operated almost as an independent State Department. And oftentimes USAID was operating in contravention and contradiction of what the embassy was trying to accomplish in the host country. And one of those complaints you would get from many developing nations is that they would get flooded with NGOs that were picked for them.

[00:50:03] And, of course, those NGOs were operating the country without even coordinating with the government, the U.S. government, who was providing the funding, doing whatever they wanted, and pursuing what they wanted. Now, you guys know that NGOs were all over the border invasion. Down in the Darien Gap, they were funding all sorts of things. Now, here's the important part. George Soros. USAID funded 64 NGOs of George Soros and Alexander Soros.

[00:50:31] That money was funneled back into open society, was funded and used for division and chaos here in the United States and in other countries. George Soros is an evil son of a bitch. I'm just going to say that. I don't care whether he hears it or not. And I have often said that if you got rid of George Soros, and also in that same group is Reid Hoffman, linked IN. Now, Rubio doesn't quite come out. And that guy who I can't think of his name, the guy in China that's been funding, using NGOs to fund Antifa and BLM.

[00:51:01] And this is all part of that investigation. Let me say something. My take on what Rubio is doing here, and this includes J.D. Vance, by the way, BLM, Antifa, the funding, the organizations that funded those groups, I think some of it may overlap onto Mark Zuckerberg. But I don't know whether or not they'll go after him. So let's play this clip. But this is a very, very important. And Rubio is really sharp. He's careful of all what he says. But I know behind the scenes, he does not like George Soros or Alexander Soros.

[00:51:29] He does not like Reid Hoffman. I hope that the full force of the American government goes on to those billionaires and we set the precedent. Some of those top problem creators, the people that want to cause division and chaos in the United States, that truly want to destroy the country from within, they need to pace the consequences. And I hope if they do go after them, that they hit them with the biggest sentences they can possibly get. Let's play that clip, George.

[00:51:55] Right there, the criticisms that I keep hearing from that side over there about us not spending the money because we got rid of the USAID program. USAID basically was a program that was a system that was completely devoid of our public policy, operated almost as an independent State Department. And oftentimes, USAID was operating in contravention and contradiction of what the embassy was trying to accomplish in the host country. And one of the complaints you would get from many developing countries is that they would get flooded with NGOs that were picked for them.

[00:52:21] These NGOs would then operate in the country without even coordinating with the government, doing whatever they wanted and pursuing what they wanted. And in some cases, it extended well beyond food and medicine. It extended to political interference and all sorts of other activities in these countries that were undermining the national interest and the credibility of the United States. Now, these compacts in particular are promising and exciting because they are government-to-government arrangements. No longer do we put money into a bucket and say, this is for vaccines or this is for medical care or this is for standing up clinics globally.

[00:52:51] We are doing it individually, country by country. And the reason why that makes sense is because every country has unique needs. Some country may need more help in some area than in others. But at the core of this arrangement that we're making with countries is their desire and our goal to ultimately help them build their own national health systems so that eventually they no longer are dependent on foreign aid.

[00:53:15] So, you know, when these senators bring stuff like this, we should, this should be allowed where they can have more of a discussion and Rubio bring up, okay, well, which USAID contractor are you referring to? And when they bring it up and you know, there's all ripe with fraud and everything, then Rubio can come back. Well, they were using our money for this and you're, are you okay with that? You put them on the spot. See what they have to say.

[00:53:41] This is how we're going to get dialogue in this country because doing just these hearings and just go, you know, dumb shit, five minutes. You don't get nowhere. It's just one side bitching at the other and yada both. And if it's reversed, same thing. That's what I want to say. George, what do you think? Maybe they should take a lesson from Scott Besson. Maybe Scott Besson should give lessons to people because he has a... I said Besson, but I know it's Besson. It's not croissant. Like croissant, bro. I didn't say croissant. I said Besson. It's Besson.

[00:54:11] Yeah, I know. I corrected myself. I can't. I'm done. All right. What were you saying? Wait till I correct you the next time. You'll see. All right. Let's talk about the SAVE Act. A bunch of traitors, shithead rhinos voting with the Democrats. Once again, common sense. I'll ask the audience. You guys are in the chat and people that are new. Get in the chat. I want your comment. I want to hear what you have to say. How about this?

[00:54:37] What do you think that we have to have ID for everything else? What do you think about the congressional members that don't believe you need voter ID? I don't care whether you're talking about people at the state level, federal level. All the government officials that are pushing back on voter ID. How come they don't push back on ID for purchasing a gun or ID to get on a plane or ID to get a driver's license? Or the fact that you have to have a driver's license for so many other things.

[00:55:06] Doesn't matter whether you're going to get a bank account. If you're not going to have ID for voting, then why don't we just kick out all the IDs? No ID at the bank. You can just open up bank accounts wherever you want. Everybody requires authentication, even a lot of times online, you know, for social media accounts. If you want to verify your identity, they want an ID. But yet your government officials are pushing back and saying, no, no, we don't want voter ID. Is there any realm, is there any fair argument that anybody could give you, any common sense argument,

[00:55:35] that would tell you there's a real justification for no voter ID? I would give you a resounding bullshit. Now, here's the Senate, right? They take a vote of 48 to 50 to reject the Save America Act. And four Republicans, and this list did not surprise me, George, the list. Why don't you get the list of the audience and go from there? The list of people? Okay, so we got Bacon, no surprise, Nebraska. Rashaun from Pennsylvania. Kerry from Ohio.

[00:56:05] Fitzpatrick, Pennsylvania. Gabarino. New York. Jimenez. Florida. Heard. Colorado. Joyce. Ohio. Kiggins. Virginia. Lola. New York. Lawyer. New York. McCall. Texas. Miller. Ohio. Murphy. North Carolina. Newhouse. Thompson. Pennsylvania. Turner. Ohio. Wilson from South Carolina. Yeah. Did I go to the right ones? Well, I was talking about that.

[00:56:34] Oh, that's the age package. Hold on a second. What are we doing? You went to the wrong thing. I was talking to the four Republicans who voted. I'll jump in here. I've got it. My bad. Four Republicans voted to reject the Graham. Of course, this amendment, right? No surprise, Murkowski. Total piece of shit. Mitch McConnell, the turtle. Turtle. Does it surprise you? The guy can barely get himself, you know, into Congress. No, but what's crazy was he was in the beginning, he was against it. Then I guess they talked to his handlers and then he switched around. Now he's back against it. Yeah.

[00:57:04] Well, I guess you follow the money. And then Tillis and Collins. Now, I'm not that familiar with Tillis and Collins. George knows. Okay. So Collins right now is she's up for re-election for a senator's seat in Maine. And she's battling this dude, Graham Plattner, who was leading her by 10 points in the polls. But, you know, all this controversy on him is coming out, you know, with the swastika. Can you explain that, George, on the swastika and Nazi stuff? What is it? What was this? Tell me what happened there. Okay.

[00:57:34] So he's a former military, this guy. He was in the military. But he also criticized people like Kyle and a couple other soldiers, prominent soldiers. He was criticizing them. You're talking about American Sniper, Chris Kyle. Yeah. And there's other ones. And then, so at some point, whatever, he had a swastika right here on his chest, which he covered up. I don't know if he recently did it. And he also degraded William. Now it's coming out.

[00:58:01] The ex-girlfriends just came out yesterday about him saying that he knew what the swastika was, what it meant. You know, he's just lying. And like he said, he also came out with, there's evidence, like people make stuff about him about physical abuse. And then he also made remarks saying, I would rape them to show I'm dominant. This is what he said. This guy. So now she's back leaning in the, in the polls. Barely.

[00:58:31] But you would think this dumb ass Republican would be for the Save America Act because right now you're battling for your seat. I mean, it's stupid, but pretty much with this whole Save America Act, it, we knew, I knew, I mean, you should know. It was never going to pass unless they get 60 votes. And there's no way they're getting 60 votes. You're not getting that many Democrats to flip.

[00:58:58] The only way when we've been saying this for how long is drop the filibuster. They tried putting it with an, um, as a reconciliation bill, but that also got shot down. They were fighting doing this all last night for, uh, Lance, which was, I mean, at midnight, Senator Mike Lee went, he went off on everybody. They say he went war mode for the Save America Act and actually forced the vote. He said the department of Homeland Security had found tens of thousands of registered non-citizens

[00:59:27] in the United States. So now with that happening, number is much higher than that. So now hold on. So now the Save America Act just got 50 votes. Who changed her mind? Senator Susan Collins. Cause she voted in favor of Mike Lee's amendment. So now if they got 50 with JD Vance, you can get to 51. That would be the tiebreaker. But that's only if they dropped the filibuster and put this, because without it, you would need 60.

[00:59:56] But again, I think that that number that Mike Lee gave when it costs about registered non-citizens, I think the number is much higher than tens of thousands. I think it's- No, no, no, no. He's going by what the Homeland Security had just found. He's not going by, he's going by what they just found. Again, anybody voting against the Save Act is absolutely worthless because they want to cheat. Lance, he can't, and I understand Mike Lee, and I don't blame him for this.

[01:00:24] He can't go on and say stuff if they don't have full evidence because you can't get the voter rolls of California. They don't want to give him up. Let's say there's other states. And I know what you're saying, but the speech and debate clause allows him to say whatever he wants. And he probably knows better than it's tens of thousands. I think it's, I think it's millions. Yeah, but he's just going by what they just found. But I'm going to play the clip here. Listen. Mr. President, our elections need to be characterized by two things. We need to make it easy to vote and hard to cheat. And we need to do that by making sure that people establish their citizenship and therefore

[01:00:54] their eligibility to vote when they register and that they show who they are when they show up on election day. This isn't hard. This isn't unusual. Every country in the entire world, countries you're familiar with, countries you're not. Countries as wide-ranging as Mexico, Brazil, India, Argentina, Peru, Botswana, Burundi, they all have voter ID requirements. We do not.

[01:01:18] We do not want to leave this amount of power sitting on the table so that foreign powers can send forth people who are not eligible to vote in this country and vote anyway. We need to do this. The House of Representatives has passed the Save America Act. We now have the opportunity to vote on that same bill, the Save America Act here. This bill, Mr. President, will disenfranchise no one. It will make us all more free. It will protect the sanctity, the dignity of your vote.

[01:01:47] When we allow people who are not allowed to vote to vote, we rob Americans of their vote. Let's make it easy to vote, hard to cheat. Let's pass this bill. It would be nice, right? But so, I mean, the only way is to drop the filibuster. But that's all to Senator John Doone, that little bitch. Will he do it? I don't, I mean. No doubt. I mean, listen, if Doone likes his seat and wants to remain a Senator, because I can tell

[01:02:16] you when it's time for him to get reelected, we're going to go after his ass big time. There's so much negative for him as a Republican, it outweighs any good he's done. He may think he's done a lot of good, but he hasn't. Look where we're at. I mean, it's crazy. But you know what else the Senate did? They passed last night. They passed a $70 billion border funding package. This were, this was, they were going all night from what I said.

[01:02:44] The bill, this bill actually funds, thank God, ICE and Border Patrol operations through the end of President Trump's term. Now it just has to go to the House. They got to pass it. They'll be back Monday after their little recess, but it's just, we got, we got limited time before they really go on summer recess. You know, they, they, somebody brought up Lance about the Clarity Act that is supposed to be coming up. I still want to know what's in that bill. Hurry up with that. They sure are impacting the crypto market. Not in a good way.

[01:03:14] Again, it's a buying opportunity, but I think it's really important. Yeah. I know you're going to bring up Iran. I just want to bring something up real quick because it just came out. So Israel just launched us strikes in Lebanon. This is after Hezbollah rejects his fire. Trump says, and Trump goes on, it'd be really nice if Lebanon could have some peace. So here's the thing. Hezbollah is a terrorist organization. Why are we even negotiating with him in that sense? Right?

[01:03:42] I, I, listen, I agree with you wholeheartedly. The Hezbollah thing, but I also, you know, we've had talked about on the show. We don't blindly follow. I don't like what Israel is doing. I think, I think they're impacting this process. Now, that being said, there's nothing, nothing to really say that Iran isn't going to continue to jerk us around. That's historically what they do. But if you want to stop them, cut off the money. Strike those Bitcoin mining facilities today. And I'll bet you they change their tune because they're going to lose any capital coming in. They got the oil shut down relatively well.

[01:04:12] Let's shut down the Bitcoin mining. Hit the mining centers today. Say the U.S. and say, that's it. Now they have no capital. Without having money, this thing is going to stop very quickly. So that's my take on it. I think Donald Trump ought to put drone strikes on all the Bitcoin mining and the infrastructure for them right now. Just take them out. All right. Let's talk about this. This is bullshit. Uh-oh. I don't believe we should continue to do any funding or any support for Ukraine at all. Oh, yeah. Tired of it.

[01:04:41] I'm tired of the theft that I keep seeing online. All the money for real estate and shoeboxes of cash and expensive high. You want to talk about fraud? Ukraine is fraud. Massive amount of aid and fraud and money being stolen by Zelensky and the rest of his cronies. So the House is now going against Trump. They pass Ukraine aid package. Now, you guys in the audience, I want to hear from you right now. Now, $9 billion to Ukraine and sanctions on Russia.

[01:05:11] We've got 18 Republicans that jumped on board. A bunch of shithead Republicans continuing to fund a corrupt, installed CIA puppet leadership individual. And this money, I guarantee you, if $9 billion goes to them again, I bet you half of it gets stolen. By the time this war is over, I bet you Zelensky will be worth somewhere between $4 and $7 or $8 billion. I believe that. George, what do you think about this?

[01:05:40] They want, you know, this is, do you think we should give any more funding to Ukraine or should we just take our nose right out of that conflict and stop any support once forever? I wouldn't give. Stop attacking Russia because I think that's ridiculous. I wouldn't give any money and force both of them to come to terms. And that's it. Yeah, let them deal with it. It's their war. It's not ours. Talk about taking our tax money and giving it to them. I mean. And I think we could have an amazing relationship. I'm so tired of talking about fucking Ukraine and Russia. Congress needs to get the fuck out of the way.

[01:06:07] I honestly think we could have a great relationship with Putin. All the conflict between us could be done because, of course, Putin and Donald Trump really respect each other. So 18 Republicans, a bunch of jackasses again. I don't, let me put it this way. With the way the economy here is in the United States, I'm tired. I don't want to spend any more money on conflicts that aren't our conflicts. War and Iran, I get it. When we're dealing with it, if we're going to go into Cuba, makes total sense to me. Cuba's too close to home, makes total sense. This, let them buck it out.

[01:06:37] Whoever wins, wins. I don't care what happened. I mean, I care what happens to the Ukrainian people. I care what happens to the Russian people. But I don't give a shit about Zelensky and his cronies. I don't care. And I want to claw back all the money that Zelensky's stolen. This guy's, listen, think about this. Think about what Donald Trump gets paid to do the job. Zelensky's paying himself way more than what I'm about to say. But publicly, he's paying himself a million dollars a month. Anybody here think that Zelensky's worth a million dollars a month? And that money's coming out here.

[01:07:06] Besides the fact that we paid for a bunch of Ukrainian retirement monies and accounts, we're actually funding Ukrainian government official retirement accounts. Does that make any sense to you guys? So here's the thing. So in order for this to go through, Trump has to sign it. That's number one. So he should veto it. Say, oh, you motherfuckers don't want to pass Save America Act? Come on, why should we give money away to anybody? I mean, use anything as leverage right now.

[01:07:35] But I hope he vetoes it and doesn't sign it. Yeah. If I was Donald Trump, I'd probably wrap the document I have to sign. I'd probably wrap a big pile of dog shit up in it and I'd send it back to Congress. They would get the document back with a big pile of dog shit in the document. This is freaking ridiculous. Enough's enough. I don't want to help Ukraine anymore. I just don't want to do it. Let them buck it out. They can deal with it.

[01:08:01] I think that he's an installed, thieving, scumbag CIA implant, you know. All right. Here's a nice one. We've talked about this on the show. Things like this. So, of course, there was a big bust with a guy just living the life of Riley. He's been selling U.S. gear to Iran. This guy's been facing up. He's going to face up to 20 years. Living like a big baller. Reporting that he's making $20,000 a year. I don't even know how he got.

[01:08:31] He must pay cash for the house. I don't know. Living in a $35 million California mansion. So, he made millions through a decade-long effort to funnel U.S. computer gear to Iran. This is his name. 63-year-old Jamshid Gomi. I think he should change his name to Jamshid. He's a U.S. dual Iranian citizen and CEO of a Tyran-based Faraz Pardaz Raania, whatever that means.

[01:08:59] So, he's violating these U.S. sanctions. He appeared in federal court. I guess he bought American networking security and encryption equipment and routed it through middlemen in the United Arab Emirates, UAE, onto hundreds of Iranian clients, including the Ministry of Defense and the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran. Nice house, huh, George? Would you like to have a house like that? I guess all you have to do is be a trader. And you can get yourself a $35 million. And I think this is crazy.

[01:09:26] He was reporting $10 million in annual sales, right? But he asked that his name be kept off shipping records. He hid U.S. origin items inside larger loads and laundered more than $15 million in proceeds in American bank accounts. And it must be a lot more than that because you can't get a $35 million house like that. This Newport Coast mansion cost more than $14 or $15 million to build. It's now worth $35 million. They're valuing it at $36 million.

[01:09:55] And, of course, aiding our enemies. So here's another scumbag, a foreign adversary scumbag that gets dual citizenship. And then he reported that he was only making $20,000 a year, George. That's it? That's all he's reporting? Reporting $20,000 a year living in a $36 million mansion. I'm sure he's got big baller, shot caller cars, and who knows what he's really got stashed.

[01:10:21] Because, of course, he was probably using offshore accounts, offshore corporate entities. I mean, these are allegations on my part. But you can't build a $16 million house like that. Even the $10 million in reported income from his company wouldn't be enough to qualify. I mean, it would be way higher than that because you're talking about $67,000 at these interest rates for every million borrowed. I'm sure he put whatever the minimum was down. It's big money. To qualify, you'd have to show big income. I don't know how you can get even qualified for a property like that unless you do it in cash.

[01:10:50] Reporting $20,000 a year. This is the kind of shit that just pisses me off. Americans struggling and this scumbag is living like this, helping our foreign adversaries. Yeah. All right.
