Take a look behind the curtain with a real whistle blower, an
American patriot. Prepare to embrace the
uncomfortable truth because this program has no time for
comforting lies. Here is civil liberties
enthusiast, Second Amendment defender, and recovering FBI
agent Kyle Seraphin. Well, hello my friends, welcome
to the Kyle Seraphin show. Today's Friday.
It is July the 11th and I appreciate you being along for
the ride. Today's going to be a friendly
Friday with my friend, Real Steve Friend.
He is the real 1. So if you're not following Steve
over on social media, make sure you guys check him out.
He is at Real Steve Friend. His name is in today's show
title. It'll be really easy for you to
find him. I hope you do follow him.
He's doing a nice job over there.
Today we're going to be talking about power and the abuse of
power and the nature of it, because nobody's good with it.
There's a very, very small percentage of people that can
actually be uncorrupted by power, and that's only for a
certain amount of time before it does actually corrupt them.
It's it's inevitable. There are very few
incorruptibles, maybe none given the right sort of temptation.
It reminds me that Jesus is tempted in the desert before his
crucifixion. And what was he offered?
All the things that we believe power is available and those are
the tools. The devil, it's the it's money,
it's influence, it's respect, it's the ability to do good, a
chance to do good. That might be the most evil
power there is. The devil offers you the thing
that you want most and uses it to destroy you.
And so when we talk about this ongoing problem, which is being
dismissed by our administration right now and maybe past tense
has been dismissed, this weekend they dropped a memo saying that
they were no longer going to be investigating any of the the
Epstein stuff. How do you walk away from that?
I don't know. But it's pretty clear to me that
power is problematic and it's problematic no matter who has
it, even when quote UN quote, our people are in charge.
I mentioned him already today. We're going to get right into
the program. We're not going to do anything
wild. We're not going to do anything
sideways. The links are in the show
description for all of our sponsors that sponsor the
program. There's my friend Steve friend.
Good morning, buddy. Let's just let's just get into
this discussion right now. Looking forward to it.
I didn't get my walk out music though.
Do you want walk out here? Stand by here?
Hold on. Hold on.
No. Here.
We got here. We got here.
Ready. OK, there's Steve's walk out
music. Now we can go back to Steve.
OK Steve, now you can feel like you've been properly introduced.
How do? You.
I feel like I can just fire one off into the left field gap
right now. This is great.
Let's do it. What do you got?
Oh, I'm excited to bring up this this topic here because
apparently we're all supposed to move on.
There's there's an unofficial gag order from on high, but I
was thinking about the Epstein stuff at large today and it's
you can get sucked down into the rabbit hole about Jeffrey
Epstein. I know you and I, and you
especially were like in this X space for extended period of
time yesterday. It was really interesting.
But at the same time, I think people kind of get wrapped
around the axle and the best thing you can do is to sort of
eject and go down the lines of like another analogy to make
sense of why people are so upset about this.
So I was contemplating this and I thought all right, let's say
as a as a criminal investigator I find out that there is a bank
robbery in Liberty Hill, TX and the the subject is described as
white male with a stunning beard.
He entered the bank with a Patriot cooler and some silent
Faraday cargo pants and then robbed the bank and escaped with
a pickup truck with a Kyle Seraphin Show bumper sticker
with a QRE code on it and a push bar on the front.
Does that mean that Kyle Serafin robbed the bank?
No, but there's a lot of smoke there, and you'd expect the
local police chief to carry forward an effective
investigation. Let's say for a couple of years.
The police chief told everybody that he was on the case,
investigating it, not giving too much away.
After all, can't compromise an ongoing investigation.
Don't want to reveal sources and methods.
And then over a July 4th weekend, on the website for the
local Liberty Hill Police Department, they issue a
statement that they've conducted A lawful and thorough
investigation and the bank wasn't robbed.
I think that they could understand why people feel like
you've pissed on their leg and told them it's Gatorade.
Not even rain. Someone was pouring the
Gatorade. I noticed something because I
have very intuitive and clever people that follow me over on X.
Somebody posted the similarities to Dan Bongino and Cash Patel on
their media hit marathon using the word logical and appealing
to the authority of you know me, you know the way that I am.
Why would you ever think that I would do something that would
damage my credibility or say something that's untrue?
Because I never would do that. In the same way that Democrats
ask you, don't you care about common sense, gun control?
Don't you just care about common sense?
The use of the word logical is quite interesting.
Here I'm going to play you a quick clip from the Joe Rogan
Show, where I guess our former mutual friend was making an
argument and an appeal to authority with that word.
Do you think let's play out the logical conclusion of this?
Do you think that myself, Bond, Gino and others would
participate in hiding information about Epstein's
grotesque activities? Or do you think we would also
participate in not prosecuting people?
We had evidence to prosecute people on.
The problem is, there's been like 15 years of people coming
in and creating fictions about this that doesn't exist.
Where's the videotape of a nifty island of XY and Z committing
these frauds? Why haven't you given it to us?
Do you really think I wouldn't give that to you if it existed?
I'm working my ass off, along with the leadership at the
Bureau and DOJ to get you what we're allowed to give you.
And you're going to get the video of the cell and you're
going to see for yourself. And we will never be able to
convince everyone. OK, let's let's get into that.
So what did you think before you got into office?
Did you think that Epstein was murdered?
No. No suspicion at all of it.
But I have a different background, right?
Right. So I was a public defender back
in the day. I used to spend a lot of time in
jails and a lot of time in segregated housing units, shoes
as we call them, right? And so and I've known people
that have committed suicide in these cells and I know how you
get in, how you get out who works the system.
And so the way based on public information at the time that he
ended up put the pictures and him hanging himself.
I was like, man, that guy killed himself.
Logical appeal. Well, it sort of reminds me.
It's reminiscent of Joe Biden saying I give you my word as a
Biden and we are all like that doesn't mean.
I forgot that he did that. I mean, that that's what they're
doing. And look, it's a little bit of a
different age. I mean, Joe Biden came up during
the 80s for God's sake. So it wasn't like that He was
being accessed constantly on media through podcasts and, and
television and. Streaming, yeah.
There was a time when you could straight up make a lie in public
and people would forget about it because they couldn't go to the
tape. Like somebody would remember.
Like, didn't, didn't he once say this thing?
It wasn't like you could just go to a machine and go like, this
guy said this thing and then it pops up like I typed in this
morning. It was like Elon Musk give me
power. I find 5 clips of Elon Musk give
me power. I found it.
It was really easy. I'm going to play you this.
This was a compilation I put together the other day.
Here's my problem. Let me actually set it up with a
question to you, Steve. What is Giglio and why does it
matter to law enforcement? Giglio is a process in the the
in criminal justice where you're supposed to hand over derogatory
information about the individual that's going to be presenting
the case, the officer. So let's say that the officer
has provably in their history committed some sort of a lie and
testifying or some sort of an infraction that would besmirch
their character and their credibility.
This state in prosecuting anybody in our system is
required to turn that over to the defense so that the defense
when you go up there and the officer is testifying to the
facts in this case, they can say, well, officer, in the past
we have credibly proven that you have committed perjury.
So should the jury believe you now?
And that's a question that that's devastating to any sort
of prosecution. And as a result of that, if
there is Giglio material, if there's derogatory information,
proof that you have lied before, you are effectively cannot do
your job in any going forward as a criminal investigator because
you can't testify. OK.
In the FBI, they have charges for that under OPR.
What do they call it? Do you know?
Lack of candor. And it can be two ways,
underoath or not underoath. So you can be lack of candor
underoath, which is essentially, I think it's it's a terminable
offence. That's Andy McCabe.
So you lie Underoath, that's a felony when you're lying to
people in the FBI. Unless you're Andy McCabe and.
Unless you're Andy McCabe. $700,000 settlement, yeah.
Sure. The other side of it is it can
be lack of candor, not underoath.
I was accused of lack of candor, not underoath, and found to be
guilty of it because I told my boss a joke, which he knew was a
joke and I knew was a joke. But they decided that.
So those those things a little bit more context matter, at
least in my experience. I think context matters so
people can lie to you when they're not underoath and there
is some wiggle room there. Like maybe you went on a podcast
and said something and it wasn't true.
The not underoath thing is, would they love to hang their
hat on because of the Pearl clutching that they can do where
it can be a jovial joking environment and we all know.
And then it's the Bill Burr thing where they read the
transcript back to you and you know, they go, it's the the
woman saying no, don't stop. And it sounds really bad.
But then when you're in the moment, she's like, no, don't
stop. And the FBI loves to use that as
a leverage point. OK, I grabbed this video.
This was a little quick compilation and this was the
director of the FBI who kind of shared some thoughts about how
the Epstein thing went down. And you can tell right away that
the stuff that he said on Joe Rogan was false.
I feel like there's a biblical thing at play here.
And we've had a second biblical reference in like, you know, 15
minutes. We should have geared on with
us. People who can be trusted in
small matters are often people you can trust in great matters
and and vice versa is also true. That's kind of why they do the
background check. Maybe, maybe I'm mistaken, but
is that not the background check sort of indications not not why
you do financial disclosures when you work for the
government? Integrity's doing the right
thing when nobody's around, because you ultimately realize
that somebody's always around. Yeah, and sometimes when you're
on a on camera, they're actually always there.
So here we go. Did Jeffrey Epstein kill
himself? Who killed Jeffrey Epstein?
This doesn't look right. It doesn't look like a suicide.
And so the way, based on public information at the time that he
ended up for the pictures and him hanging himself, I was like,
yeah, that guy killed himself. What did you think before you
got into office? Did you think that Epstein was
murdered? No, no suspicion at all of it.
This doesn't look right. It doesn't look like a suicide,
but I have a different background, right, Right.
So I was a public defender back in the day.
When you're in that kind of confinement, we call it solitary
confinement, you're not supposed to have these things that you
are able to hang yourself with. That's the whole point of the
strict rules in there. You're not supposed to have 6
feet of cloth that you can dangle from the ceiling so you
can hang yourself. This is prison 101.
I used to spend a lot of time in jails and a lot of time in
segregated housing units, shoes, as we call them, right?
So I've spent a lot of time in federal detention facilities as
a public defender before talking to my client.
So I kind of know how those work and I know how you get in, how
you get out who works the system.
He was in isolation. He was in a unit where it's he's
in there not just to protect himself, but he's in there to
protect the rest of the prison population because he was such a
high profile case. And so and I've known people
that have committed suicide in these cells in these units.
There's supposed to be 24/7 guard duty on him directly.
It's there's just no way that you could have run an op.
The guard fell asleep. Now, I don't really buy that,
but it's almost impossible to prove otherwise unless you can
obtain the videotape. Well, it's hard to surmise that
from a video. And usually there isn't video
looking into people's cells for a lot of reasons.
And had people go into that cell and not have any video of it and
not have any people come out and say, hey, yeah, I saw that guy.
He shouldn't have been there, the guard or this guy.
So correct me if I'm wrong, but what I was told, what I'd read
was that the guards were not paying attention or were
sleeping. The guard fell asleep.
Now, I don't really buy that. Well, it's hard to surmise that
from a video, right? Like where they like, you know,
And look, do guards doze off on the night shift?
Yeah. What did you think before you
got into office? Did you think that Epstein was
murdered? No.
I give you my word as a Biden. Look, here I am talking to Joe
Rogan on the biggest audience that exists on the planet.
And I am willing to 180° flip on my previous statements because
now I'm the FBI director. And by the way, I'm working my
ass off as I sit down, fly into Austin on a private jet, and go
hang out with what might be one of the cooler things you could
do in America at this time. I don't know anybody that's
like, oh, that would be terrible.
I would hate to sit down with Joe Rogan and talk to a funny,
cool dude in the biggest audience in America.
I would hate that. That would be the worst for me.
Marking my ass off. And you could just notice
knickknacks on the desk. And he'll be like, oh, yeah,
I'll send 12 over to you. He's like, the most generous
guy. I want to quibble about one
thing that he keeps talking about.
I was in these facilities as a time as a public defender.
Yeah. He was a public defender in the
Miami area for a certain amount of time.
Every time he talks about the shoe, as we call it, I'm like,
are you watching Oz or something?
Like what's your subject matter expertise on this?
And, and particularly about that particular installation, which
was in New York. So you have no familiarity with
it at all, he's claimed. He's been in there a bunch.
Actually, there's other video footage of him saying that he's
been in that specific one in that Correctional Facility in
New York. I mean, I suppose he.
And I know he was. I did.
As far as I know, he did actually work out of New York
for a little while, but was he in a shoe in New York?
And if so, why and what clients? I feel like that'd be a real
easy question. Underoath, you mentioned you
were in these facilities. Can you name the clients that
you defended that brought you into those facilities to give
you expertise? Acting like there's not going to
be a visitor log that that records all this stuff.
I am assuming that's where you're going that this is
probably provably false. Yes, yeah.
I mean, it just seems like puffery.
So again, an appeal to an authority people, because I was
a public defender and I at one point went into a jail to talk
to a subject. Now, I am the subject matter
expert on all security protocols within the suicide watch wing of
this random facility in New York that ultimately we don't know if
he's actually been to that specific facility, OK.
I think so. Just listening to that, our
listeners don't need to be spoon fed.
But lying under not lack of candor, not underoath is a
suspendable offense for the FBI, for everyone that works for Cash
Patel. That's all I'm establishing that
there are standards for the agency that he runs now.
Lack of candor, underoath is a terminable offense.
It results in you having Giglio material forever.
You can no longer testify because you're no longer
credible. And I think I accidentally black
pilled yet another conservative commentator this week with a off
the record discussion. It essentially came down to
Patel was on my show a lot of times double digit numbers.
And when presented with questions about things he said
on my show, his statement during this exact same hearing that I'm
about to show you, he said you're taking all of those
things out of context. The commentator told me they
were 100% in context. So if he can lie to the Senate
for confirmation, he certainly could come on my show X number
of times, XX number of times and lie to me.
Maybe he lied to me the whole time.
And I think America's waking up to that.
This is lack of candor. Underoath, prove me wrong.
You familiar with the Stu Peters?
Does that name ring a bell? I'm sorry, what?
Are you familiar with Mr. Stu Peters?
Not off the top of my head. I haven't dug as far as you have
on that one, but I wouldn't be surprised he did and he's
causing. It's a war, like you said, it's
an actual war between Russia and the Ukraine.
Now the question is, well, first of all, Stu, thanks for that
mighty generous introduction. Very, very kind of you.
I'm excited to be with your program.
When I was in the Trump administration, right?
Those people exist and we will cut the check to the lawyer to
file your defamation case and get your day.
Who killed Jeffrey Epstein? How about that?
Let me talk about so I've spent a lot of time in federal
detention facilities as a public defender before talking to my
client. So I kind.
Of. Are you familiar with Mr. Stu
Peters? Not off the top of my head.
You made eight separate appearances on his podcast.
Clearly Cash Patel is lying. He absolutely does know who I
am. Fight with Cash came to the aid
of Stu Peters and the Stu Peters Show because of Cash Patel
personally. And then we exchanged contact
information and we directly text via personal cell phones
constantly. He absolutely knows who I am.
You claimed you were not familiar with Stu Peters, an
anti-Semitic Holocaust denier. And I don't want to hear this
6,000,000 D chess stuff about how Cash Patel just has to get
through this part of it. And then he just has to get in
there and infiltrate so that he can root out all of the rats and
the Jews. And he's doing what his people
do. It's just inherently in them to
lie and be deceitful. And he's he also went on to say
how they came to his defense that they texted personally.
Same experience that you and I have that you know he sent you
money, he was a friendly texted with you when you when he asked
you questions etcetera, etcetera.
It's it was an unnecessary lie. I mean, it's an easily
defensible thing. Like, hey, look, I do a lot of
media. I don't personally vet every
single minute that the media source is out there.
They may have said something that I agree with or disagree
with. They asked me to come on and
lend my subject matter expertise to a particular topic.
And I do that as a matter of being somebody who's
knowledgeable and trying to share information with as wide
an audience as possible. So that's what I did.
That's perfectly defensible. And you knew you're going to get
some sort of pushback from the Democrats because they all hated
them. But, you know, amazingly, I
don't hear any of the Democrats pushing back on them now.
So it seems to me like they're pretty satisfied with Kesh Patel
now at the helm. It's unsettling to me, again,
people who can't be trusted in small matters who turn around
and stab you. I've had a bunch of people that
have been comment, you know, commenting.
And of course, there's an influencer OP going on right now
trying to make this thing go away.
And they're just saying things like, oh, you know, I trust Dan
Bongino, I trust Cash Patel. There seems to be like a
concerted effort to not trust Pam Bondi.
A lot of people seem to be totally fine with tossing her
under the bus. It is notable that you don't
normally hear much from an attorney general.
You've I've never, I never saw Merrick Garland go out and do
media hits. I didn't see Sessions do it,
didn't see Bill Barr go out and do regular, you know, maybe a
stand up interview at a press conference when they were
releasing something, but never like sit down with Hannity kind
of deal. So that's kind of strange.
But all these people say, oh, I trust these guys.
It's like, well, have you ever met those guys?
Because both of them personally lied to me, and both of them
have either lied directly or by omission to you.
This is the weird sort of dynamic of some of these people
who were content creators in a prior life right there either in
the news or had a radio show or a podcast or something like
that. That dynamic between the host
and the audience is very strange because they spend significant
number of hours with you in their life and they listen to
you and listening is different than speaking and they feel like
they know you as a result of that, but they they really
don't. It's, it's truly bizarre.
And I think a lot of people get sucked into that and really feel
like they have an actual relationship with the person
because hey, I spend 3 hours with Dan every single day.
Spoiler Dan doesn't know you. Dan wouldn't lie to me, though.
It's like, well, he did. He lied to me and he actually
knew me. He looked me in the face and
lied to me. But by the way, there's our
audience out there. We see you.
We know you buy some of your handles.
But at the end of the day, if you were to walk up on the
street, and it is a weird dynamic because you've done it,
you've given a lot. How many speeches you think
you've done in the last two years?
Oh, I mean, probably. Yeah, 4050 and and people will
come up and they'll and they'll look at you.
They'll say something like hi, Steve.
And then they'll introduce themselves and then they'll look
at you like, like they know you, which is awkward because you
know, we don't, we're not trying to be mean anybody.
But if we've never seen your face before or we haven't shared
an interaction, it is a strange dynamic.
I'm in your home right now. I'm talking to some of you from
your phone. And and and we're we're having
this conversation. You're, you're eavesdropping in
on me and my buddy having this, this discussion about power and
it it's very personal. In fact, even the microphone is
geared up to sound like we're just talking in your ear.
It is a very unusual dynamic. And it's different than like a
Fox News presenter where it's like bong and then the Chiron
goes out and there's spinning and the cameras change.
It's just a guy sitting here having a conversation, maybe 1
sided with an audience. And that, that guy, if he's not
scrupulous, he might lie to you. Why would they lie to you?
What kind of things would be at stake?
Oh, I mean, maybe a comfortable existence where you get access
to a private jet and then you get to go hang out with like the
Joe Rogan's of the world and you have esteem in every room you
walk into for the rest of your life.
It's basically guaranteed you're going to be the most interesting
person that's there. That's pretty tempting.
It is, and so there you go. So people want to be relevant.
They want to be part of this thing.
Whatever this thing is that we're all doing, I'm going to
play you. This is the sacrificial piece of
it. This woman has gone out and run
cover for. Like I said, I've seen a
concerted effort to excuse Dan Bongino from this debacle.
The weirdest thing for me is the deputy director says, what is
that like on the highest level of authorities?
It's probably not the director signing off.
It's delegated to the deputy. We've also heard that cash is
not even in the building half the time doing party guy stuff.
So here's Megyn Kelly make an excuse, and Pam Bondi apparently
is the one to blame. I don't think she's wrong
because Pam Bondi, we're going to cover a couple stories that
tells me they're screwing with us, all of us, the Americans.
I think she was thirsty for attention.
I think she was enjoying the hits on Fox, on Hannity, on
Waters in the middle of the day with John Roberts and saying
like, I've got all the answers on Epstein, I've got all the
juicy dish and I'll be the one to give it to you.
Until she either found out that wasn't true would and and
realize This is why attorneys general don't talk like this
ever about their ongoing investigations ever.
You almost never hear from Attorney general.
It's the one person in any administration, Republican or
Democrat. Who you really?
Can't get there's only so much transparency you're supposed to
get from an attorney general given the way criminal
investigations work. And and then realized like she
had an oh shit moment of she's humiliated herself and the
administration or again, I don't know something else or it, it
was real in the 1st place and now she's doing the lying.
This I don't, I don't know the truth on nobody knows the truth
except what's in their own hearts.
But we can watch it. We can see it from the outside
and we can know that something is not right, that there was a a
dramatic pivot. And you can't run away from the
tape. The tape was only a couple days
ago. What's really interesting is in
the actual hierarchy of power in the org chart, it's completely
inverted for the popularity and the importance to the movement.
So no question, Dan Bongino, Cash Patel, Pam Bondi.
Dan Bongino is the biggest persona, and yes, he is the
lowest on the pecking order in the actual power dynamic.
Right. Why do you think that is?
And you know, you have Pam Bondi at the top, who I mean, unless
you're somebody who's like really involved in politics at a
state level in Florida, would not have known that Pam Bondi
was the estate attorney general in Florida, right?
That's right. She wasn't an outspoken MAGA
person that was doing the Stu Peters show 8 times over the
last few years and yet she is at the helm now and the movement is
going to have to require a scalp.
Are you going to go after your big dog or you going to go after
the smaller 1? So they actually have to go
after the most powerful person because she's the least
important to the movement. And also requires Senate
confirmation, which is a pain in the ass to get through.
Look, I'm not sad to see something like that happen.
And I, I watched a little clip the other day someone sent me
of, of Laura Loomer claiming that she's gotten at least 7
calls from the White House over the over the last year or less
whatever to six months saying hey, go easy on Bondy.
Like stop attacking her, stop calling her Pam Blondie.
Stop doing some of the mean things that you say because
Laura's pretty mean and it's a hard, it's a hard, I can't
listen to a podcast. She was like, nobody has the
same level of political acumen as me.
Like they're just all jealous of like how awesome I am.
I'm so great. But anyway, she also said nobody
called her this time when they're taking shots at Bondi,
that this does seem to be the OfferUp.
If they're going to give a sacrifice to somebody, it's
going to be this. Look, she's terrible on a lot of
the stuff. And I'm going to give you a
couple of cases that are evidence of it #1 the current
case that me and a bunch of other whistleblowers involved in
the FBI and people who experience religious
discrimination up to and including termination.
We have an ongoing lawsuit. I've referenced it here a couple
of times. I know you're aware of it.
They stonewalled us, Steve. They gave us no return on our
discovery request, which was basically the same sort of
discovery request you were asking for.
You wanted training records. I just want my personal records
and the comms of people that are shit talking me in the
background that are on e-mail because that was part of the
official record of what happened in the agency.
And we could actually probably with that prove some of the
animosity. They won't give us any of it.
None, zero and a quote UN quote friendly administration.
You fought and got told that it was going to take you a couple
years to be able to get your freaking training records so you
can get a job. I mean, it's, it's there's no
change when this administration changed over the DOJ still
defends DOJ. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I know they kind of caved recently for you.
So that's actually not bad. I mean, because we had some sort
of like insider, here's my situation.
I asked for my training documents.
They wind up saying, well, it's 900 documents, it's going to
require us 5 1/2 years to send them to you.
Then they sent me an update and said, well, actually it's over
17,000 pages, but the pages you need specifically, there's 12
pages in there. I'm like, well, so you've
already looked through all 17,000 pages and determined that
it's 12 pages that I need. And they said yeah, and this.
And then like offline, they, they emailed me those 12 pages.
So it's, it's ridiculous right then?
What do they call it, malicious compliance, where it's like, oh,
you need everything that might be related to trading.
It's too much, Steve. It's 12,017 thousand.
It's it's 137,000. It's 10,000 hours, the video
documents, right? I mean, it's just like it's
malicious compliance. We're going to tell you so much
you can't even fathom it. That's why it's going to take
you 5 1/2 years to be able to get it sent to you.
By the way, by that point in time, your career is dead, all
of your training is useless, everything you have is out of
certification, and you can't work in law enforcement ever
again. Which?
You have you have Ron Johnson right now, senator from
Wisconsin, who's having to send subpoenas to a friendly FBI and
DOJ to get information about what happened in Butler.
Why is he asking them to send him the information?
They say, well, we can't send it to you, give us a subpoena
because we have to go through the process.
There's a process. We can't just volunteer it to
Congress if we want to. I thought we.
Would promise to have great cooperation between the FBI and
congressional oversight at this point.
When that was something else that Cash Patel testified to
during his confirmation. Might he have been less than
lacked candor in that regard as well.
Oh, I'm sure this is Bondi talking about merging the DEA
and the ATF. So we were going to get no ATF.
That was the hope. We were going to have a smaller
and limited ATF that only did things.
That's not been the case. She's actually been fighting on
some gun cases, which are crazy. And then when you hear that the
the DEA, which is actually a pretty competent organization,
like they're kind of cowboy, but they actually get stuff done and
they're going to put them with the worst and they're going to
make them the same thing because drugs and guns always go to get.
This is one of the worst logic. Again, offering her up.
I'll take it. Like, yeah, let's sacrifice that
land, but we're going to need more because you can't have an
FBI director that lacks candor that can fire people for lacking
candor. Here's here's Pam Blondie as
Laura Loomer says. I look.
Forward to it for. Asking about the ATF, DEA
merger. I'm a career prosecutor.
I care about ATF. I went to ATF's memorial
service. They are going to be working
together and that's what this reorganization does.
And I they're all going to be, it's going to be a great
marriage between those two agencies.
Our budget includes $1.2 billion and 2444 agents for ATF, and we
will reduce unnecessary regulatory efforts, including
what I just said about the weaponization.
That's how ATF, I believe, was weaponized in the prior
administration. ATF has taken thousands of guns
off the street since January 20th, working hand in hand with
DEA. Drugs and guns go together.
Screw you. Whenever we heard ATF guys
getting quote UN quote guns off the streets, I wanted to blast
them right in the face. That's.
Exactly where I went. That's not a victory.
They'll buy guns from a legal
gun seller in a legal gun transaction with no federal
laws, and they'll be like, we bought 17 guns and you're like,
why? What case did you build?
We're like, we got guns off the streets.
Claim the stat. What is that like?
What are you going to now? You just took gun now I got to
go buy more gun like now you're making you're you're actually a
buyer on the street market that is running up the price in the
private party sale of guns. You a holes with government
funds for no and they overpay for everything.
By the way. That's the other crazy thing.
They're like, oh. We'll.
Give you $1000 for your $500 handgun that's used.
That's just what Obama administration did with
ammunition. They were buying thousands and
thousands of rounds for agencies that I don't even know if they
had people with weapons in them. But they were doing that to
drive up the prices of ammunition, to create shortages
artificially because we could just print more money.
And she's sitting there saying like, we took all these guns off
the street, OK, Can we? She's.
Also claiming she went to the memorial.
She's the doing the same thing. The cash memorial look.
I I'm a good person. I did a good thing.
Like I care. I'm a career prosecutor.
Like no, you're a career politician.
You were a lobbyist. You got paid by the government
of a guitar. I got Habitats for Humanity one
Saturday. I the hammer and I put nails
into a roof for a poor person. The ATF?
Are we too dismissive? The ATF.
I'm, I'm friends with John Dodson, original Fast and
Furious whistleblower, the OG whistleblower.
OK, You have to read the book that he wrote on this.
And then the title of it escapes me at the moment because nobody
actually understands what happened in Fast and Furious.
Everybody's just like Obama and we had a border agent killed
and. Gun walking.
It was. It was a gun.
It was a by walk situation. It was peak government, peak
federal law enforcement, where they essentially were allowing
guns to be purchase, knowing that they were illegal, so that
they could be used in crime, so that they could take those guns
then off the street when the locals encounter them and seize
them. And then they could claim a stat
and they wound up getting somebody killed.
And then beyond that, they were saying, we have to build up this
case so that we can get a wiretap when they knew the
people of the next level up who they were, were already under
investigation by the DEA. So it was an unnecessary
wiretap, but we had to get a wiretap for a stat.
So the DEA had the next level up, and that person was
answering to somebody who was a confidential human source at the
next level up who was being paid by the FBI.
So the FBI funded Fast and Furious.
And take all of it to the top where the AG was down with it
and what is the end up there was a perjury subpoena that got
walked on or a perjury charged and and referral that never went
anywhere. Like the best part for me is
that the government found the government blameless.
Like nobody lost their jobs, people lost their lives.
It's like classic why? Like it's the self licking ice
cream cone. It's like, why did you do all
this stuff? Well, because we needed to show
that we're doing work. I said it the other day to
somebody and it blows peoples mind when you explained it.
The federal government is the only law enforcement group like,
and we'll just lump in all of the DOJ assets and also DHS that
actually benefits from bad performance because they can
show that they statistically need more money because the
problem is bigger. So they're like in the business
of perversely incentivized budget versus performance.
Unlike your sheriff, your local. If crime is.
Down if crime goes up. If crime goes up, you're going
to lose your job. If crime goes down, not only do
you get reelected, but you can ask for more budget.
We want to do more safety programs.
Look at our track record of success.
And people are like, oh, yeah, I did see less speeders when they
were putting out those, like, speed cameras or they were
putting up the, you know, those those traffic monitors or they
had a cop that was stationed right at those places that we
don't have a stop sign, but we should or whatever.
They're like, yeah, that is useful.
Like, I would want to fund another officer.
And they also know that that officer is coming out of their
community, unlike the FBI, who makes you come from somewhere
else to go do work in a place that you don't know
theoretically, so that you can't be corruptible.
But why is it? What do you think it is?
It's to compromise you. I think that's part of it, but I
also think that it's just to pay the moving company that's going
to move you that's. Yeah, that's a good, good
theory. I mean like.
Do you know what we got billed, Steve, when we moved from from
Virginia to New Mexico? The federal because I had to pay
taxes on it. You know how that works?
Right. Yeah, I had to do the same thing
when I moved to Florida. So folks, you don't understand
this, but a federal move, a full cost move, they pay for the move
at the government's rate which is insane, an amount you would
never pay and then you pay the taxes on it because it's a
benefit to you. It was $53,000 allegedly to move
me from Virginia to New Mexico and my salary was $120,000.
They paid $53,000 and then I paid the tax on it on like 180
something for the year. Unbelievable bullshit.
Like I would have moved me for. I've done Diddy moves in the
military where like you get the difference and I did it for less
than $5000. Like I rented the damn truck,
loaded all the boxes, packed them all myself and rolled.
Even if I went if not hired a bunch of illegals, it would have
been cheaper than that. Even if I hired a bunch of not
illegals, if I hired like two men will move you in a truck, it
would have been cheaper to pay them to do a local move across
the country than $50,000. This is after of course they
gave you $10,000 to sell your house at they gave me. 10,000 on
top of. The closing cost for your new
house. Correct.
All true. So the entire cost of that move
was probably like 6570 thousand dollars of actual dollars on a
person who made 120 year. Like it's nobody would run a
business, nobody would even think of a business like that.
If you went out there, you'd be like, damn, we can't do this.
This is illogical. Kind of like people, I've been
doing this, this stream, you've kind of seen it from the outside
folks for the last couple hours, probably like the last 12 hours,
we've just been streaming this non-stop over on X and over on
Rumble. I'm doing it to prove a point
and I'm going to make it longer and we're going to do this
throughout the weekend. So expect to see more of this
and more of these things. This is a suspendable put this
together. It wasn't me.
So I'm going to add to this montage, but I'm going to play a
couple minutes of this. It's the reason why we're we're
harping on this because they can't get away with this stuff.
Like you can lie to me about how much money it cost to move.
You can lie to me about whether or not, you know, Stu Peters or
you know, Kyle Seraphin, his D friend were, you know, what are
they? They offered you a job and then
they didn't offer you a job. They disappeared on you.
Like you can lie about that. You can't lie about this stuff.
It's on tape. DOJ may be releasing the list of
Jeffrey Epstein's client. Will that really happen?
It's sitting on my desk right now to review.
That's been a directive by President Trump.
I'm reviewing that. I'm flashback, who has Jeffrey
Epstein's black book. Black Book.
FBI that's under direct control of the director of the FBI.
The Senate has confirmed Kash Patel as the new director of the
FBI. He was another controversial
choice. That's why you don't have a
black book. That Jeffrey Epstein story is a
big deal. Please do not let that story go.
Keep your eye on this. I'm just going to throw this out
there because you think that would be valuable to an
intelligence apparatus to have blackmail material on people on
video doing things with young women they shouldn't be doing in
case you need a, let's say, favor later.
Hey, be a real shame if this got out when.
Yeah. Damn.
I think that may be very helpful.
I think. Yeah, maybe we need to keep the
heat on this case, folks. There are a lot of people who
are knee deep in the Washington swamp who are not telling you
the truth about serious allegations out there that
Epstein may have had video and audio of people out there doing
things they shouldn't have been doing.
And you should be asking yourself the question, how is it
that all these people, the CIA director, the Obama fixer, Bill
Clinton, all intersected past with Jeffrey Epstein?
Jeffrey Epstein isn't with us anymore, and nobody seems to
want to talk about it. Yeah, I remember those people.
There's about 12 minutes of that.
We'll make it longer, and then I'm going to make it run the
whole time. Steve, any thoughts on what you
just heard? Oh, I mean, you're just hoisted
by your own petard. I mean, the fact that this stuff
has been out there for years on end and they've been presenting
it to an audience in a way that is, is very intimate for so many
people because they spend so many hours with these guys in
their ears. I mean, I mean, if you're, if
you're somebody like me and you, you are out there running 12
miles a day, like, and you're a Dan Bongino listener, I mean,
hey, dance my running partner, right?
Like he would never lie to me. I liked it.
I liked your soft flex. No big deal.
Steve runs 12 miles a day. People.
If you don't know this, that's why he's a stud.
He can look any way he wants on. The thumb arms, That's
basically. It's possible you don't have
arms, but you definitely have to have legs that carry you.
How about this one? This was kind of interesting.
I didn't re crop this so it may be a bad crop.
Plain sight. Epstein was hiding in plain
sight. We all knew about him.
We all knew what he was doing, but we had no one.
That was no legal aspect that would go after him.
They were afraid of him. For whatever reason, they were
afraid of him. You know who that is?
That's Cindy. That's Cindy McCain.
That's John McCain's widow. Yeah.
Two of the worst people that have.
Been in America. Yeah.
So they all knew about him, and they knew that he was hiding in
plain sight. But no one, like everyone, was
scared of him for some reason. You know what if you ran for
president of the United States and you didn't have the courage
to expose someone that you knew was a pedophile and was doing
like horrible things to little girls?
Like, not only am I glad you're dead, but like, I'm I'm glad
that I voted for the other guy even though the other guy like
wrecked this country. This goes back to the comment I
made about Bill O'Reilly yesterday and I made about
others who are trying to rationalize any sort of decision
to to bury this right. There's so much smoke there.
Let's use our logical induction abilities here and come to a
reasonable common sense solution that this guy was involved in
something nefarious and probably was and we know was tied to
intelligence. If the decision was made well,
because of intelligence purposes or Foreign Relations purposes or
economic purposes, that we just have to shut this thing down.
That ends with the following phrase.
And that's why we had to let the pedestrian rapists go.
I'm not on board for that. Let me show you someone who is
on board with it. Listen, I would tell you what's
going on because this is not an opinion.
This is a fact, says this man. But you know, there's like some
legal issues here in the way and like, I can't find a way to do
it. This is Alan Dershowitz.
A lot of you guys think that he's a really honorable person.
This doesn't sound like an honorable thing to see.
This sounds like the other kind of spin up, like, oh, there is
information, but it's still anyone who keeps claiming secret
bullshit information. If you claim that you have it,
you're a freaking coward. You're 80,000 years old, Alan
Dershowitz. You're going to die before a
judge can do anything to you. You're, you're not long for this
world and this is the way you're going to go out.
This is not an opinion. This is a fact I have seen.
Remember, I was accused falsely and they have seen.
And ultimately I was completely cleared.
The woman admitted that she may have mistook me for somebody
else who withdrew all of her lawsuits.
And so from day one, from the day I was accused, I said I want
every document out because I knew every document would prove
I was innocent. So let me tell you, I know for a
fact documents are being suppressed and they're being
suppressed to protect individuals.
I know the names of the individuals.
I know why they're being suppressed.
I know who's suppressing them. But I'm bound by confidentiality
from a judge and cases, and I can't disclose what I know, but
I pan to God, I know. I know the names of people whose
files are being suppressed in order to protect them, and
that's wrong. How's that sit with you there,
Steve? I'd give you my word as a Biden,
you know me. Just trust me, bro.
I'm the guy that five years ago said that it would be perfectly
legal for the government to pin you down and plunge a needle
into your arm. But I'm saying now what we want
to hear. So he's probably a good guy.
He's got to be a good guy. That's what it is.
Anyway. There's a picture of Jeffrey
Epstein up on the screen right now.
I didn't know this. I, I did a little dive into the
background just because I, I don't like being ignorant of
some stuff and, and you know, it's not, it's not a case at
work, so it's not. Like a Brady Bunch haircut is.
Look at that, right? Isn't that kind of interesting?
So this is Jeffrey Epstein. His, his background, if people
don't realize it was that he, his story is wild and and it's
really real. It could be like the Great
American success story if he wasn't like a horrible pedophile
that did awful things allegedly. So there's a picture of him
while he was an instructor in the late 70s.
This is like 7576 yearbook photo.
While he was teaching at the Dalton School in New York City,
he was hired by Bill Barr's dad, Donald Barr, who also is an
interesting character. He had no college degree.
He was hired to teach math and physics at that school.
This is pretty well established. The question was how he got
hired with no degree. That's a possibility that he was
hired because he was such a like an interesting guy.
Apparently he dressed flamboyantly.
He was super loud, outgoing, very confident, like really
charismatic and so on. And Donald Barr, who was Bill
Barr's father, now the former AG Donald Barr, who was the
headmaster of that school, was also an officer in the OSS,
which is quite interesting. And there's some pretty
interesting overlaps between the OSS and Israel and the Israeli
intelligence community as they were getting set up after World
War 2. So it's not like a smoking gun
or anything. It's just kind of like
interesting little blips. Donald Barr was a academic and
in taught at Columbia, so he was an academic in New York.
He also was in the OSS at the same time as William Casey, who
ended up being the CIA director in 1981 through 1987.
William Casey was also an academic prior to the the most
of the OSS, like the senior officers were actually like
interesting, crazy academic, like outside the box thinkers
that, you know, hated communism and wanted to fight against it
and wanted to use interesting tactics.
And they didn't have any rules for what they did.
And even the half of the people in the OSS.
Right, which were actually working to subvert it.
Yeah. So all that's really interesting
when you talk to guys like Mike Waller, who spent time as a hip
pocket source for that CIA director.
But interestingly, 1981 CIA director William Casey takes
over and that's when Epstein ended up leaving his job as a
instructor at this school. Went to Bear Stearns for like
two or three years in the late 70s, early 80s, like right
around 80, I don't know, 79 or something like that.
He works for Bear Stearns as a, as a floor trader for a couple
years. And apparently the link was he
just convinced some girl's dad that he was, He was tutoring or
one of the kids dads that he was tutoring.
That person ended up being the CEO of Bear Stearns, hired him
on as a floor trader. Also no college degree there.
And so he goes from being a floor trader at a major, you
know, stockbroker, wealth management institution to
setting out on his own. And in 1981, he hung out a
shingle and he got into asset, international asset recovery,
which is also kind of bizarre. So this is what I was great
gathering from that space yesterday as we were doing sort
of deep dives into all of the, the different like verified
articles of the guy's story. 1981.
He's doing international asset recovery, not as an attorney,
which is normally what you would do, not as like some kind of
specialized investigator. So I don't know what his skill
set was to go find assets. That is like hidden money,
hidden properties usually buried through like corporate deals in
various places overseas. So what skill did he had to go
do that? Nobody knows, but maybe he's
hyper competent again. And then he meets a bunch of
people doing that and he starts managing money for Les Wexner,
who's the one who who bought up and made Victoria's Secret and
Limited brands, the Limited, Limited 2 and all those kind of
like retail stores. He started managing that guy's
fortune sometime in the early 80s and was getting flat rate
fees in the millions of dollars and consistently beat the market
both with his own money and with Wexner's money, apparently.
Or not was given a $56 million townhouse.
That's the one that we hear about in New York.
Like all this stuff is really kind of like a wild story.
And again, it would have been like the ultimate American
success story, except there's all these illogical leaps in
money. He was working on scams.
He actually had to leave Bear Stearns because he was
implicated insider trading. He lend like a friend like
$300,000 or something. No idea how he had that money.
He was probably making, you know, either high 5 figures or
low 6 figures from what you can tell.
And anyway, so he loans a friend of money to go do an insider
trading deal and gets kicked out at the stock trick.
And so then he moves into like private wealth management, which
was fee based. I mean, all this stuff is just
really, really bizarre. And that's why people are so
interested. And so it this the question was
always like, where did he get his money?
And it was apparently that he got paid millions in fees.
But it doesn't logically follow that one of the wealthiest, like
the top 100 wealthiest people in the world would give you their
money to manage exclusively for no particular reason.
And then yet another thing, Les Wexner set up the Wexner
Foundation, which is a massive and one of the original United
States and Israel partnerships and fellowships.
And it's a big, you know, philosophical organization
between Israel and the United States.
So it's a big Jewish foundation. So people get real weird about
that too. So anyway, like, you know,
there's so much smoke, as you said earlier, it's the Kyle
Seraphin show banner. It's the bank was robbed.
It was a, a stunning and handsome face and beard.
It was, you know, all the things that go along with it and, and,
and plenty of witnesses of seeing weird stuff.
And then it's like, but then what?
You got nothing for us. I thought there was 10s of
thousands of hours of video. I thought there were 2 / 200
victims, Bondi said. I mean, and even to just amend
the original analogy to the bank robbery, let's say that the
police chief for years have been saying, I know Kyle Seraphin
robbed this bank and and we're going to get to the bottom of
it. We're going to bring a
prosecution. And then that same police chief
years later comes out and says, no, actually the bank was never
robbed. And why are you still talking
about this? We need to focus on the
panhandling going on down the Town Center because that's the
higher priority. Well, also, we're going to also
show you a video of not the bank door.
It's another bank door with a couple of missing minutes in it
as well. And it's going to show you
conclusively and shitty footage that there was in fact no
robbery. This was the one of the diagrams
that came out of the the DO JS case against Epstein and it was
part of the investigation that was released.
This is a DOJOIG schematic drawing depicting the the shoe
housing that we heard Kash Patel talk about.
And apparently based on the DO JS own drawings, it's possible
that the door for Epstein's unit was not actually covered.
They're kind of misleading. They're acting like there was a
an access to see the Epstein door, but it looks like you
could actually walk around the backside and be out of the
camera view and walk in to that special housing unit without any
coverage. So forget the 12 hours of it.
It doesn't look like you're actually seeing anything of
substance. You're seeing doors that are not
going to his unit because his unit is actually right next to
it. I think I actually even have AI
can probably show you the drawing of that too.
Here, let me throw that on there.
So this is apparently the just bring this on the screen right
now, Steve, and do this in real time.
So this is the unit. And if you look on the the side
that's closest to me, that's where the camera is.
That little green dot is the only camera that was streaming
and recording in that unit. And the Red Square is in fact
the, the Epstein cell and the, the field of view of that camera
actually misses the door that goes into that unit.
From everything we can tell. That's the claim.
Now I look, I, I haven't been through that unit.
I'm not going to do a cash Patel where I'm like, I've been in a
lot of shoes, including that one 'cause I haven't.
But that's what the claim was. And it's still goes back to the,
the mechanics of what? Well, the, the presupposition of
the, the, I guess the conspiracy theory is that somebody could
have eluded the cameras and got in there and killed Jeffrey
Epstein and gotten out and never been detected.
But we're still never addressing the thing that I've always said
is the most likely thing is that he might have killed himself,
but he might have been coerced to do that.
To me, that's far more believable, right?
And those prison. Calls would all be recorded and
all those meetings would have to be so the logs of who visited
him should they could publish that they're not violating
anybody's privacy. It's owned by the government.
So they would have access to that.
Those those calls could be published if they wanted to go
out there and and and show what kind of conversations he would
have. If you wanted to establish that
he was feeling trapped like a rat and he was suicidal and all
this kind of stuff because he was apparently a very bombastic
and confident guy, OK, sure, you could do that.
They could make a case if they wanted to.
Here's another thing that strikes me really wrong about
this. This is Pam Bondi's DOJ.
Do you know the story of this? Yeah, I was getting briefed up
on this one last night. So this is the story of a Utah
Doctor Who goes by the name of Michael Kirk Moore.
He's 58 years old. He's being charged in Salt Lake
City, UT in 2023. He was charged with Co
defendants in running a COVID vaccine scheme to defraud the
government and the CDC. That's not exactly what he did.
What he actually did was he administered shots that were not
with the COVID vaccine so that people could get a vaccine card.
And the claim is, is that he he wrecked and ruined $28,000 worth
of government provided COVID-19 vaccines and distributed at
least 19137 doses which were like probably saline and and
inert instead of injecting what most of us thought was poison at
the time. So provided a bunch of service
to people because we reoriented our entire society and said
unless you get the mark of the beast, you can't engage in any
sort of commerce. And people had a moral,
religious, medical or just personal objection to that
because that's fundamentally tyranny.
And this guy was like, well, I'm your huckleberry, I'll help you
out in that regard. And now be that we're back.
So back we're based now we're going to go after this guy when
we still have significant portions of this country who are
saying that this vaccine was poison and it was wrong.
Just in theory. I mean, even if you took the jab
for you to be forced to do it, that was wrong.
But we're going to double down on that as the DOJ, and we're
going to punish the person that recognized that and actually
stood up. Because the government always
protects its own interest by allegedly falsifying vaccine
cards and administering saline shots to children instead of
COVID-19 vaccines. Not only did this provider
endanger the health and well-being of vulnerable
populations, but undermine the public's trust and integrity of
federal healthcare programs. This is real.
The you cannot actually. Undermine.
Embarrass the Bureau. Isn't that interesting?
I just wanted to read that to you right there.
HHSOIG remains committed to working with our law enforcement
partners to hold accountable bad actors who attempt to illegally
profit from the pandemic. FU this defendant allegedly used
his medical profession to administer bogus vaccines to
unsuspecting people. Prove there's a victim because I
bet you they didn't, including children falsifying their sense
of security. Did any of those children
actually end up sick to a point where it mattered that would
you'd have to show me damage in a civil case you would in the in
this one. They're going to go after the
fact that he quote UN quote defrauded the government of
their ability to force people to do something and claim that he
profited. Give me a flipping break.
This is what HHS did to a Anheim.
Correct. They were unhappy with what he
did because he embarrassed them and expose them as an evildoer,
so they'll just find a way to charge him with a crime even if
it's ridiculous. That's right.
Also, there's a lot of speculation about whether or not
Donald Trump was involved in the Epstein stuff here.
And so this is an interesting video.
I don't know if you've seen this, but I, this was one of the
attorneys for Epstein being interviewed when they were
trying to set up their defense or something like that.
I think this is a defense attorney, but I could be wrong.
If you guys have more context on the video, it's a guy talking
about subpoenaing records from all these folks, you know, like
the Alan Dershowitz types who he actually goes out and says like
Trump was really, really forthcoming.
It leads to me that I don't think that Trump is implicated
per SE. It doesn't mean his donors are.
It doesn't mean that people around him or not because they
ran in social circles where they probably knew the same people or
some of them. But this does actually, this
isn't not a a new video. And I just like if you go back
into the history, they separated ways a long, long time ago.
And it was pretty clear that there was animosity there.
He got thrown out of the club. It's well documented that he
thought that the guy was a creep because he went after somebody's
teenage daughter and was like trying to make a pass at her at
Mar a Lago, though. Anyway, this is actually a
fairly interesting little interview as counterpoint to the
Trump is complicit in being part of it.
That doesn't mean that they're not trying to play with the ring
of power, which is what Alex Jones thinks.
What's this interview? The only thing that I can say
about President Trump is that he is the only person who in 2009,
when I served a lot of subpoenas on a lot of people or at least
gave notice to some pretty connected people that I was
going, that I wanted to talk to them.
He is the only person who picked up the phone and said, let's
just talk. I'll give you as much time as
you want. I'll tell you what you need to
know. And was very helpful in the
information that he gave and gave no indication whatsoever
that he was involved in anything untoward whatsoever, but had
good information that checked out and that helped us and that
we didn't have to take a, a deposition of him.
That was in 2009. That was in 2009.
Anyhow, I, I find those kind of things, when you can find
historically accurate stuff that goes on somewhat, you know,
they're not conclusive, but they are indicative of the kind of
person that's not going to be into it.
So. For me, I think the system that
demonstrated itself willing to burn everything possible down,
its entire credibility from the media perspective, just
fundamental aspects of our law, like we have a statute of
limitations. Well, it's in New York, so we're
just going to ignore that they if they had actual concrete
evidence that Donald Trump was involved in some sort of
nefarious capacity with Jeffrey Epstein and was raping children,
that that would have been selectively leaked.
Yeah, I, like I told someone the other day, they would have cut
off their nose to spite their face.
And that means that we're burned people that they wouldn't have
wanted to burn. They would have burned the
Clintons over this in a heartbeat.
If they could have to get to get to to Trump because they're no
longer useful. Yeah, they would burn all kinds
of people that were historically relevant to them.
They they tried to to go after Bill Clinton during the Me Too
movement. So that was during Donald
Trump's first term. They would have.
When it was convenient. All right, I'm going to play two
things. Because they've been, they've
been memory hold by our media in a weird way.
And since we're coming up on an interesting anniversary, let's
do 2 of them. How about this guy dead shortly.
So I just want to let you know, and I love you guys both and I
wish you had gone this way. I don't want to say anything
more and implicate you in any way because you you guys don't
know anything about this. But I love you guys, and I'm
sorry for all the trouble this has caused.
I mean, he was a loving, caring guy, you know, Loved his family.
That's our old jump cut, jump cut transition.
Wow, huh. That seems like it was six years
ago, but it was probably closer to what, 3 weeks ago?
I think it was probably about six weeks ago.
Yeah, this was exactly a year ago this weekend.
And so remember this. Guy, this is my audience for the
Persuasion speech. Do you hate having to?
I want to tell you a little bit about myself and my academic
goals, my passion for building things, my love of cooking with
my family, and today I want to talk to you a little bit about
the two main types of 3D printers you'll find on the
market today. What kind of are you in the
market for a new car? Do you want something stylish,
comfortable and outfitted with the latest tech?
The tire pair kit should have a couple of tools in it.
The odds of Mr. Crooks having a friend that he encountered just
organically online who was only available Monday through Friday,
8:00 to 5:00, encouraging him to do the worst possible ideas is
100%. We're coming up the one year
anniversary of July the 13th and the attempted assassination of
Donald Trump and the death of others.
This is something we talked about just a little bit ago.
So in true media fashion, CBS News has decided to make it
about guns and they have released a story, The Secret
Double life of Thomas Crooks. Trump's would be assassin.
Now I would have given this a little bit more credibility, but
they have 11 people on the byline and it's Graham Kates,
Kara Tabachink, Matt Clark, Laura Geller and Scott McFarland
who seems like an event minute lying piece of garbage every
time I see him say something. He is a regime water carrier for
whatever the hard left has to say.
He's probably one of the most biased people that I see in the
online social media space. Before Thanksgiving of 2023,
Thomas Crooks online life was fairly routine for a 20 year
old. He'd scroll through social
media, he'd listen to music on Spotify, he'd visit news sites
and peruse Reddit. This is supposedly the result of
a months long investigation where they actually got access
to to his VPN history and all of his browsing history.
Why is this not coming out from our government?
Why is this not coming out from our most transparent
organization in history? It's coming from CBS which
clearly is going to slant and say the real problem was he was
visiting news sites and also checking out gun dealers.
He's basically got the same online history as Kyle Seraphin
for years. Apparently I would be a problem.
I'll let you reflect and then I'm going to show you some stuff
on this website here. That's pretty.
Wild. I mean, I'm just surprised we
haven't heard that there was no assassination attempt.
We did a thorough investigation and.
Afterwards. It's just let's just move on and
talk about Texas flooding. They actually did call an
assassination attempt, so good on them for that.
On July the 13th, 2024, Crooks would take aim at a rally for
President Trump in a small town of Butler, PA, firing from a
rooftop 8 shots that came within inches of dramatically altering
the course of American history. At least they understand the
stakes here. He left no manifesto, no
explanation for why he tried to kill the former and future
president. In the year since the shooting,
investigators and those who knew him have been trying to piece
together what led to him climbing on that roof and Butler
with frustratingly few answers. Luckily, CBS News Investigations
has the most comprehensive portrait yet published of the
insular young man, and it draws from interviews with more than
two dozen friends, professors, law enforcement, government
officials and others, as well as open records request.
How difficult would it be for an FBI to get interviews with two
dozen friends, professors and law enforcement officers, do you
think? Within maybe a week.
It should have been done within hours, and the two dozen number
is a little bit hyperbolic because there's no way that that
friends constituted a significant portion of that
guy's repertoire of contacts. It was probably professors in
law enforcement. That's fair.
OK, so the young man who died in the assassination attempt
attempted to craft a furtive double life in the months
leading up to the attack, unbeknownst to the people
closest to him. He actually goes on to say, I
don't actually know anybody who could come be an adult audience
for this speech. It's my parents.
And it could be my sister, but she's busy right now, kind of
thing. He was born in 2003.
He lived his entire life in a suburban hound town that was
purchased by his parents and his older sister.
They were tucked into a leafy St. in Bethel Park, PA outside
of Pittsburgh. Growing up, he loved Legos and
his cat. That's a red flag, by the way.
Buildings creating model airplanes like Tommy Boy.
I guess his parents were social workers.
They took pride in their family. He loved to cook with them,
allegedly, and in 2008 they filled out an online registry
for a family coat of arms. I have no idea why any of this
stuff is even there. For Thanksgiving, my dad and I
will cook Turkey and mashed potatoes together.
At Christmas, my mom and I will bake dozens of cookies together,
and on New Year's Eve, my mom and I will bake the pork and
sauerkraut together. He said in a video that he
recorded for his his college class his.
Parents were social workers and didn't recognize that there
might have been some antisocial behavior going on.
Yeah, there were many things that stayed familiar and
consistent through his years. He liked tight jeans, a tidy
shirt, a bespeckled smooth face with neatly parted hair.
But there were plenty of things that none of his friends knew
about him, even though they couldn't find any of his
friends, as far as I can tell, he was a nice boy who kept to
himself, said a guy named Tristan Radcliffe.
They ate lunch frequently together in elementary school,
middle school and high school. But he was 20, so it had been a
number of years since they'd had any contact whatsoever.
Yeah, they actually interviewed one friend.
He was cool, you know, kind of like he was just Tom to me.
They said there's pictures from his yearbook.
I mean, he looks like a little kid.
Yeah, of course. He was 20.
He contacted his professors to make sure that his grades
remained high because he didn't have any friends to hang out
with. So he just did that.
I thought he was a star student. He was headed, he had his head
on straight and he was on a path to success, said a former
engineering professor, Patricia Thompson.
Star student at a Community College.
I mean, it wasn't like he was, you know, at elite academic
institution either. No big deal.
In the summer of 2023, he bought a gun from his dad for $500 and
signed up for a membership at a local range.
He became a regular at the Clarendon Sportsman's Club, 9
miles from his house, signing in to use the rifle more than 40
times in the last 11 months of his life, records show.
He started using encrypted services that masked some of his
Internet use, mixed up with typical visits to Facebook,
Instagram, TikTok and X. So 40 times in 11 months means
he probably went shooting once a week, like on Saturdays?
That seems like recreational to me.
His habits started shifting in the fall.
He appeared he's His focus was still on getting straight A's
and preparing for engineering programs at the University of
Pittsburgh. But his online activity
suggested his attention was elsewhere.
He began more frequent use of encrypted e-mail servers called
Mail Fence and a virtual private network called Mulvad.
Both would shield his online life from anyone who might pry,
who would even pry, Who would even care except the person that
was contacting him through. Those he probably gets a
government backdoor access to all this encrypted
communications. Certainly part of it.
They show hundreds of visits to websites ranging from academic
e-mail accounts, discussion boards, to his bank, to news
sites to gaming platforms to social media to weapons blogs
and Steelers fans sites. None of those things seem to be
particularly interesting or alarming, at least not in and of
themselves. The fact that he's doing a bunch
of stuff in encrypted services is not necessarily an indication
of anything else. But on 2 particular days that
CBS would like you to know about, December 6th, 2023 and
January 24th, 2024, they stand out.
Because he checked various news sites, the White House website
archives for Mr. Trump's first administration, followed by
visits to firearms websites. Dun, Dun, Dun.
I don't know, that's it. And then he also showed a bunch
of requests, some sort of like he showed the single largest
number of Internet searches on January the 24th.
He had 13164 searches using the VPN.
And this is this is some of the weird data that they show, which
is kind of wild. This is why they had to have 11
people write this piece I guess. I suppose so, yeah, that's most
likely, yeah. They wrote this stuff.
This is there's timelines on here saying what happened on
December 6th. They basically are nothing.
He checked out, he went to the Sportsman Rifle Club, he visited
his Gmail account. These like this is a non story.
It's a non story, but it's more information than our federal
government has provided for a person who's not currently alive
and has no expectation of privacy because there's no
ongoing investigation. That's right.
And that's something. Why is that?
I can only surmise that the institution is forever.
They come and they go Hobbes. And I've proffered, you know, my
theory about it, speculation. And I alluded to it when we
first started showing the videos of that kid.
He looks like sort of a playbook nominee.
Somebody who looks vulnerable might be emotionally disturbed,
somebody who'll be groomed by a confidential human source
undercover to do their worst possible idea.
And to me, it is entirely believable because of the hubris
of federal law enforcement, particularly the FBI, that they
would keep them outside of a lungeable distance and he would
not necessarily follow all the bread crumbs because he was a
star student. I mean, he had somewhat a
modicum of intelligence. And maybe the plan that they
were planning for him to follow through on, where then at the
last moment when he bought the RPG that wasn't functional and
they could throw the flash bang at his feet and arrest him for
terrorism. He just said, I'm going to grab
a rifle and I'm going to go take a shot.
Because of the myth of competence that exists with the
Secret Service, he was able to cut cut through that and
actually get a successful assassination attempt.
He got a headshot off and then our government looked at that
and said, holy crap, did we screw up.
We got to do some mop up duty and let's investigate this as
domestic terrorism because we already have a domestic
terrorism case with Mr. Crooks as the subject and we can make
it classified. I'm sorry, Senator Johnson, we
just can't give you that information.
This is the problem with power when you give it to people that
shouldn't have it. This goes back to what I started
the the program with, showing you that when you have people
who lack candor that are running the organizations that don't let
that have a lack of character that came in and they didn't
even get on the agenda that people like everyone assumed
that when you elect Trump, what are we going to get?
We're going to get a pro 2A, a pro 1A, a de weaponized
government, not 2400 more ATF officers and and agents going
out there that are going to go after guns to get them off the
streets. We're not going to see this
nonsense. We're going to actually get some
transparency on the things that people wanted, which was like
MLK, JFK. Transparency is coded word for
these people who had no intention of actually being
transparent. Said it before.
It is like democracy is for the communists.
Democracy is coded language for things I like.
If you're a communist, if you don't like what I like, you
don't like democracy. And similarly, that word is a
cudgel for the the mega movement or people that are now in
positions of power where they said we're going to have
transparency. Well, it's not being transparent
with the things that you want. We'll make sure the word
transparent about other things. And we give you a very rosy
colored glasses look at that, because look, the cops are
getting murdered at a far less rate right now, even though
we're not involved with that at all.
And we're selectively pulling the statistics out there.
So and we're effectively telling local law enforcement who we're
supposed to liaise with to successfully investigate crime
in this country. You're welcome for not dying.
Let us know if you get anything interesting that we can just
adopt from you and take credit for.
For what it's worth, yesterday or the day before I saw Dan
Bongino from his deputy director account on the FBI Hawking this,
this statistics saying oh, like the like, you know, law
enforcement deaths are down 50% this year so far.
And they cited it from something called the National Law
Enforcement Memorial Fund or something, which I've never
heard of. What is the what is the Memorial
Fund or page or organization that the FBI actually uses for
reference just for. The identification, it's called
Officer Down Memorial Page ODMP, and we had to keep as a class in
the FBI. We will be punished if we did
not keep it a running ticker while we were in the Academy,
updated every single day. If there was a law enforcement
officer who was killed and if we did not update it, we'd be in
trouble. What year was that?
2014 and that was our class gift.
Instead of giving them some sort of plaque because the class has
to give a gift back to the Academy for some gay reason, we
said we would prefer to give a gift to the ODMP page that looks
out for dead cops. OK, they had the same thing when
I was there in 2016. They had the same thing when
Garrett Boyle was there in 2019. Because ODMP is the official.
They have the best numbers as far as I'm aware of.
They're based in Fairfax, VA. I actually know the founder.
I actually worked with him 'cause he investigated my
neighbor next door. Small world, but the founder of
ODMP is actually a really nice guy.
He's no longer running it, but his name is Chris Cosgriff and I
have his number and I reached out to him and guess what?
Cash Patel knows. They're the group that the FBI
actually supports because Cash Patel gave them a $50,000 cash
gift from the Cash Foundation. I just wanted to be said that
the people that are running the FBI right now don't even know
the historical nature of the FBI as much as guys for all the for
all the talks, Steve, Fred was only there for eight years.
Carlos Tariff was only there for six years.
It's like, yeah, well, that's like 25 times more time than
these guys have been there. And we also know you can't be a
liar and be in charge of it. Just saying it.
Just appears to me that the Kennedy rule #1 is undefeated.
Dang it. No matter who you get as the FBI
director, you get Jim Comedy. That's right.
And it's a play on a, on another rule, which basically said that
no matter who you nominate for, for Republican candidate, you
get John McCain. Apparently John McCain knew
there were pedophiles running around out there.
Now I'm going to end with something about power.
And then we'll have a palette cleanse because we have to
because we're going into the weekend and then I'm going to
stream from this account. I'm going to stream.
If you're watching me anywhere, you will now be able to stream
like I'm going to run the computer all weekend and we're
going to play clips of these people but clowning themselves
and lying to you and gaslighting you about what is and what is
not available with this Epstein investigation because I'm not
done with it. So the clip is there are some
people and the only people that I will ever trust with going up
against what it looks like when you have power are people that
have actually sacrificed something that is against their
own best inference when they are going up against real power.
And for whatever it's worth, Elon Musk, who I don't agree
with about like human, I'm not a secular humanist like him and
I'm not real crazy about integrating machines into our
brains. And I think he's got some,
probably has some misses when it comes to religion and some other
things. And I don't like the way that
he's making babies with randos left and right.
That doesn't seem awesome. But you can look at a man by
principle. And when someone's willing to
lose 10s of millions, hundreds of millions, maybe a couple of
billion dollars in net worth because they are standing on a
principle, it does say something about you being able to resist
that ring of power which corrupts everybody that holds
it. There's not many people that can
wield it for any period of time. And if you can, it's very short
and he may have already passed that thing, but he did this
little interview on CNBC. You know what I'm about to play.
Do you want to set anything to this, that that that is salient
to to his statements in this regarding power and people's
ability to resist it? Well, I think that as being the
world's richest, the richest person in the history of the
world, he could easily obtain that level of power and that
level of influence. And good on him for having the
humility to recognize that that ring of power exists and to just
step back from it. Here is the CNBC clip that and
I'm going to give you some Princess Bride because he
references something, because I want to play the reference to
because I just love it. I just like the idea of Enego
Montoya doing what he needs to do, which is what I want to see
people do. Do not make peace with evil no
matter what they offer you. I want to see people destroy it.
Do your tweets hurt the company? Are there Tesla owners that say
I don't agree with his political position because, and I know it
because he shares so much of. It.
Or are there advertisers on Twitter that Linda Yacarina will
come and say, you got to stop, man.
Or, you know, I can't get these ads because of some of the
things you tweet. You know, I'm reminded of
there's a scene in The Princess Bride, great movie, great movie
where he confronts the person who killed his father and he
says, offer me money, offer me power.
I don't care. So you just don't care.
You want to share? What you have to say?
I'll say what I want to say and if, if, if the consequence of
that is losing money, so be it, right?
And that it. I mean, he, he understands, I
guess probably the ultimate power, which is having a few
money being able to say that. But I, I don't think that that
matters to him. I really don't, I don't think
well. Here's here's what it doesn't
do. It doesn't bring back your your
child. It doesn't bring back your
parent. It doesn't change a traumatic
history of where your your life was destroyed.
So you can't get that back. That's what power doesn't offer
you. That's that's the reason why
people actually believe as Christians what they believe, I
think, because the devil can offer you all those things.
The devil can offer you money, power.
They control a chance to do good.
If you control it, you can do the right thing.
No one else could but you. That's an appeal to pride.
The devil can offer you all those things, but what the devil
cannot offer is time or your life back and you at the end.
No such thing as resurrection. At the end of that offer, you
have to end with the phrase And that's why I let the pedophile
rapists go free. I prefer to end with it.
You can never give me the thing back that happened.
This is Inego Montoya. This is the the climax of of
Princess Bride, by the way. He got stabbed multiple times
and he's basically dead and down and out in the fight.
Actually, you know, what should we do the longer version of it?
Steve, I got both versions. Should we do the longer one?
Yeah, it's great. OK, this is about a 2 minute
clip, but I absolutely love it. You're right.
And we're going to do the long 1.
So let me just re re grab. Here we go.
Kaboom. It's a little bit quiet.
You guys will like it. Good heavens, are you still
trying to win? You've got to never develop
sense of vengeance. It's going to get you into
trouble someday. Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya.
You killed my father. Prepared to die.
Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father.
Prepare to die. Hello.
My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father.
Prepare to die. Stop saying that.
Oh, hello. My name is Inigo Montoya.
You killed my father. Prepare to die.
No. Offer me money.
Yes. Power to promise me that all
that I have and more. Please offer me everything I
asked for. Anything you want.
I want my father back. You son of a bitch,
you think about that? I think that that represents
everything that Elon Musk was expressing, everything that I
think your show expresses. I mean, you're certainly in a
position where you have now, you can have you have stakes, right?
I mean, you could essentially say, look, always pom poms.
I could do what I need to do to to get the clicks and to get the
views. And at the same time, you said
what's right is right, what's wrong is wrong.
And I'm not on anybody's team. I don't care about the movement.
I just care about what's true. Yeah, you can't buy me.
You can't buy. You can't buy Garrett.
You can't buy people who have principles.
Turns out you can buy some other people.
We've seen it. So we're going to run a reel of
them talking and not doing what they said they were going to do.
So if you guys want to stick around at any point in time, if
you feel like tuning into the chat, you can do so over at
rumble.com/kyle Serafin on me. Put the the underliers here.
This is the studio. This computer is going to be
running all weekend. It's going to be running a
single montage rumble.com/kyle Seraphin.
You can share that with a friend if you want them to see.
It's about 11 minutes. It might go up to as long as 20
minutes when I'm done with it.youtube.com slash at Kyle
Seraphin, we'll stream it over there too.
What the hell? We'll get kicked off.
Maybe locals kyleserafin.com, we'll send it there.
That is the that is our local community where people are
supporting us. We appreciate it.
You could be a free or paid member there.
And then lastly, Spotify. You won't get it on Spotify, but
you can see today's show Kyle serafinshow.com.
Go ahead and send it to a friend.
If you don't mind, go to Steve. Steve, are you guys going to do
the American radicals? You're going to have to take a
break people from your live streaming of of of truth and and
and and Bongino Patel slash Bondi versus themselves to go
watch the AMRAD. What time you guys doing it?
What do you got coming? Up 10:30 tomorrow, Saturday.
Yeah, if you break away from Kyle and go back and give him 2
views, that's great. Awesome.
And you can join us there on rumble.com/amradpod.
The Saturday grab bag edition, just kind of pulling different
stories from all over. It's going to include stuff like
Bill Gates firing American workers in favor of cheaper
foreign labor. It's going to include things
about Donald Trump. Trying to send weapons over to
Ukraine again, but then some local issues that I think are
really important, like a woman who was told she could have
chickens, and now she's getting fined.
And also a look at the worst list of the 100 best movies in
the 21st century. So join us tomorrow, 10:30 on
rubble.com. Am Rad Pot.
That's Eastern Time for people who who live in the rest of
America that is not on the East Coast.
So it's 8:30 here in Texas America, right?
Oh no, sorry. 9:30 here in Texas America.
Or 10:30 in the land of milk and honey, which is Florida.
It's really sweaty there, isn't it?
You guys have alligators and stuff.
All right, Speaking of sweaty, hot and summer, we're all
experiencing this right now. If you have children, if you
have grandchildren, this is what you've forgotten about.
But it is still out there in the world.
Steve, we're going to leave with an ode to the people that allow
us to do this, the thing that we should be protecting children
and women who represent the American future, in my
estimation, the people who bring the future in and the people who
will live and become the future. Here's a little bit of a smiley
and fun take on the summer mom, which is its own species.
Steve, thanks for joining me today.
You got. It As the scorching sun rises
over the suburban plains, the summer mom emerges, coffee in
hand. The offspring, no longer
tethered by routine, have fully reverted to their natural state.
Feral, loud, and perpetually sticky, Their young are
restless, their energy boundless, their requests
relentless. But this is not her first
migration through summer break. No, this is a seasoned summer
survivalist. She does not scroll Pinterest.
She does not overcomplicate. From the garage, she tosses out
a weathered bucket, 2 pieces of chalk, and a water squirter.
The ancient ritual begins. Go paint the driveway.
The young are captivated. For now.
They begin to draw. Rinse it and repeat.
The pavement becomes a fleeting masterpiece.
The mom. She retreats to the shade like a
victorious lioness, sipping her lukewarm coffee with pride.
She has bought herself 18 whole minutes of peace.
She knows the piece is temporary, but for now, she is
victorious. That's about the look.
If you guys know that is the look of a parent who is
overwhelmed with kids running around.
But you know what? You home school every day is
like that because you're always involved with your children and
it's worth it. I'm going to remind my wife
right now who's probably catching the tail end of this.
Appreciate you and what you do with our kids everyday and the
fact that they need entertainment and information
and love and support and and that's what we're supposed to do
with kids, not hang them out to dry and let them be taken on by
sex trafficking pedophiles who should be burned.
That's the show today, guys. I hope you guys have a fantastic
weekend. Again, these, these, if you get
notifications during the weekend, that's what's
happening. If you have it turned on, we're
going to be streaming a bunch of stuff for a long time because
screw them. I don't like being told to say
that we have to be quiet now. And I want our people to do what
they promised us, which is be transparent, not just things we
like. Do the things you said you would
do. All right, God bless you.
Have a fantastic weekend. We'll see on the other side of
it. Thanks for listening to the Kyle
