Badlands Media - Badlands Book Club - Book 5: Stolen Elections - Chapter 11

Episode Date: March 11, 2026

CannCon, Ashe in America, and Colonel Towner Watkins continue their breakdown of Stolen Elections, examining a chapter that introduces sweeping claims about foreign influence, voting machines, and election infrastructure. As the hosts walk through the material, they question the logic and sourcing behind allegations involving Venezuela, China, Iran, and Cuba. The discussion focuses heavily on how the book presents technical claims about poll books, voting machines, and election software. The panel compares those claims with publicly known election equipment and processes, pointing out contradictions and factual errors along the way. From diagrams suggesting global control networks to explanations about flashcards and voting hardware, the hosts repeatedly challenge whether the narrative holds up under scrutiny. Throughout the episode, the conversation turns into a deeper examination of how complex election systems can be misunderstood or misrepresented, and why careful research is necessary when making claims about election infrastructure.

of the Badlands, explain those Badlands. That's a hell of a name. All right. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Badlands Book Club covering chapter 10 of Ralph Pizzolo's atrocity, stolen elections. Joined by the one and only Ash up and Colonel Towner. How are you lovely ladies doing tonight? Awesome. Good. Or this afternoon for Ash. Yeah, it's forced to afternoon, kind of. Oh, man. I'll tell you what, Ralph Pizzolo did himself a favor by not putting this chapter earlier in the book because I would have thrown it. Well, I would have thrown it about a thousand times already, but I haven't thrown your book yet. I have laughed.

I've shot milk out my nose from laughing so hard, even though I'm not drinking milk. That kind of stuff. But this one, I would have thrown it and just sheer frustration about the utter lack of due diligence. that was performed on this book. It's so atrocious. But, yeah. We say that at the beginning of every show. Yeah, that's true.

You have your moment that like Colonel with the, General Franks. Yeah, you had your General Franks moment in this chapter. Yeah, yeah. All right, guys. So let's go ahead and jump into our sponsors.

I cannot wait to see you guys in Gart, or in Tennessee for Gart. Agreed. Do you know what was the anniversary? We had an anniversary yesterday. It was the one year anniversary of us throwing axes in Las Vegas. Was it really? Caleb sent me a picture. And I was like, oh, my gosh, I told Abby, she made a little montage of it. We played it on the show last night.

That makes sense because I also remember that was the night that I got so wrapped up and all of that that I forgot to call my mom on her birthday. And that's a cardinal sin. Yes, that is the worst thing you can do. Well, you're two hours, three hours behind. Two hours behind. Two hours behind. And they go to bed early. So like.

Depends on daylight savings time. doesn't it or I don't know no no no only Arizona is the one that doesn't change every place else changes including Nevada including Nevada Nevada does change did you did you see the the post today about Nevada and Runbeck and Arizona yeah I watched your show this morning I yeah I never knew that that that yeah because they've been lying to us about the role that Rumbach is playing for years. They've been lying to us about the role that Rumbach is playing. Yeah. And did you see you there's always a telltale sign when Garrett Archer comes out in full force. Yeah. You know that orders. He yeah. Dude, his his ex page was blown up today with all of this

stuff because he's got to work overtime. So I don't know. Is he like is he like yes, I'm going to get all this overtime bonus pay or is he like, oh shit, they're catching on to us. It's all going to come to an end. I don't know. Well, I mean, his like pay model. I wonder if it is, you know, is it based on how much he spreads the story or does he get like a fixed $7,000 or something like that? I was thinking $7,000 a post. Isn't that what the green rate is? Something like that. Well, that's that Netanyahu money. I don't know if Arizona's deep state has that kind of cash flowing around. It's not just Arizona. Cartel's got a cartel, Brian. I think this is much bigger than just Arizona.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But he's mainly... Obviously, Venezuela. Yeah. That was funny when a colonel today was like, hey, Cancon, is there any Venezuela in Runback? I'm like, no, but there's a Valenzuela. Ray Valenzuela. I'm still looking for Venezuela.

All right. So should we get into chapter 10 the TikTok chapter. TikTok. TikTok. All right. Let's dive into this. All right. Who wants to go first?

Where are we stopping? I think we should read the exchange. All right. So, okay. So chapter 10, part four of the criminal investigation from people who have no authority for a criminal investigation, by the way. It starts out with. What's that?

They're self-starters. It starts out with TikTok's chief executive officer, Q-Choo, which sounds like a dog toy. Oh, I didn't read it out loud. I read it in my head, but hearing you say it's hilarious. Shoo-choo-choo. Shoo-choo-ch-ch-sounds like something you say to like, I don't know, something that's nagging you, like,

shoot-choo! Or it's something after somebody sneezes. Shoo-choo-choo. God bless you. Thank you. The following is the open statement by TikTok's chief executive officer Shu Chu during his appearance before the U.S. House Committee on Energy and Commerce on March 23rd of 2023. Who do you want to be, Brian?

I will be Congressman Bill Johnson. So you want me to be Shu Chu? Oh, you're going to have to do like a Chinese accent. You're going to get Zin. labels you're going to be labeled a xenophobic. I've labeled myself as xenophobic, so I don't aren't terribly concerned about that. I am well aware that the fact that Biden's has Chinese founders has prompted concerns that our platform could be used as or become a tool of China or the Chinese Communist of China or the Chinese Communist Party. There have been calls to ban us or

required divestment. Finally, I'd like to address some misconceptions about how TikTok, about TikTok. First, I understand there are concerns stemming from the inaccurate belief TikTok's corporate structure makes it beholden to the Chinese government or that it shares information about U.S. users with the Chinese government. This is emphatically untrue. All right. So then it encourages us to listen to Shiu Chou's testimony before the House Committee on energy and commerce and questions from congressman bill johnson yeah that was just the uh open statement yeah well part of it the dot dot dot is probably like the beginning yeah congressman bill johnson mr chew i'm an information in technology professional i've been doing it for most of my life

you've been evasive in many of your answers i'm going to talk to you in a language that maybe you'll be able to understand ones and zeros let's talk about the citizen lab report this is something your team frequently mentions in hearings as a way to exonerate yourself. For example, in the limitation section, it reads, quote, we could not examine every source code component and test it in the app in every circumstance, which means our methods could not find every security issue, privacy violation, and censorship event. So it's an incomplete assessment, end quote.

This report notes TikTok's data collection using third party trackers was an apparent conflict with the GDPR and multiple themes were censored by TikTok. What is shocking to me is the shared source code between TikTok in the United States and the CCP-centered, Du Yin. The Citizen Lab report says many of the functions and classes were identical in the differences and behavior between TikTok in the United States and DuYin and China are slight changes in hard-coded values. incredibly specific censorship parameters from do yin are present in tic tock but just turned off the authors say that for unknown reasons the parameter variable itself is preserved so while

citizen lab may have been afraid to say the obvious conclusion mr chew i am not ticot source code is riddled with bugs oh no backdoor and ccp censorship devices did anybody catch that reference riddled with bugs eric cumer hashtag eric coomer here's the truth in a million lines of code the smallest shift from a zero to a one in just one of thousands of versions of ticot on the market will unlock explicit ccp censorship and access to american data mr chew as ceo of ticot why have you not directed engineers to change the source code Thank you for the question. I am a Kung Fu master.

All right, hold on. Before we go, before we get into this, I've got to go back to 168. The second, the last, the quote, we could not examine every source code component and test in the apps in every circumstance, which means our methods could not find every security issue, privacy violation, censorship event.

So it's an incomplete assessment. this was subject to the TikTok examination was subject to massive scrutiny because it was way more important to make sure that people are not getting blocked out of the algorithm on TikTok than to make sure the free and fair elections for the free world are not on the up and up right and so TikTok gets their source code examined somehow but our voting machines do not and in the process of examining the source code for TikTok they find that they can't figure shit out. Like there's so many different ways that you can hide shit in it. Yet we continue to use these black box voting machines where we haven't even looked.

Haven't even looked. Simple numbers counting machine. I just thought that was incredibly ironic. I mean, he says that there's censorship parameters that are simply turned off. How many things on our source code for our voting systems are simply turned off?

Okay. Yeah, the data collection using third party trackers, apparent conflict with GDPR might take away from that party. I mean, all modern technology is noncompliant with GDPR. It's like being compliant with the voluntary voting system guidelines. It doesn't exist. Yeah. It's a facade. Congressman Johnson, have you directed them to change the source code?

Have you directed them to change that source code? It's a yes or no question. Have you directed your engineers to change the source code? Why are you allowing TikTok to continue to have the capacity for censorship? And yet you claim here, you don't. Let me remind you of something. Do you realize making a false and misleading statement to the Congress of the United States is a federal crime? Yes.

Thank you very much. Okay. So, have you directed your engineers to change the source code? Where was the source code for TikTok developed? Was it developed in China or in the United States? It's a global collaborative. We're going to hell. That's my last line. Was it developed in China?

When it's compiled in the compilation process, can bytecode be? manipulated and that's where I ended up I did put a question mark that I have to look up real quick so go ahead and somebody talk I mean so can can the source code be manipulated in the manipulated in the nondescript global collaborative probably that doesn't that doesn't really seem like it has any guardrails on it and we're talking about TikTok here he says if the same questions who built your source code who owns it do you change it we're put to the chairman of Dominion, John Polis, and the chairman of Smartmatic and Antonio Mugica,

presently under indictment, would they... Hold on. Hold on. Stop. He's not under indictment. He's the only one that's not under indictment. Not ever. Nope. I just looked it up. Public reporting on the federal bribery and money laundering case involving Smartmatic does not list Antonio Mugica personally as a charged defendant. It goes on to say these materials named Piniate Vasquez and Marra's and Rayno as defendants, but do not list Mujica as an indicted co-defendant in the case. He's the only one that's not listed of the smartmatic owners. He's the only one that's not under that's not a co-defendant in this indictment.

So another lie? So another just simple fuck up. That's what we're just going to call him. Just in the state. Don't don't, don't read anything into it, Colonel. Yeah, I'm way past the point where this. Don't let it detract from the quality of the. product. Yeah. I caught that. I put the question mark. Nice. Nice. Nice.

Yeah. Um, do we want to read the RP and source one? This is, we actually read this. We read this exact, um, declaration on why we vote. I think, I think we read this one. Or maybe we read it previously in the book. Is this when we were doing the whistleblower transcript? I thought that. I thought it was from there, but maybe it wasn't. And one person, one vote, I would probably venture to say yes. Go ahead and read it. All right. RP, which is Ralph Pizzulo.

And why doesn't Dominion, and why does Dominion say that they didn't borrow anything from the source code used by Smartmatic? Because when they did, it took all the functionality. It was just Asian. Because when they did, it took all the functionality. they needed from the source code and they put it in a new language. Imagine you're recording a song, you'll have the melody, but you want to change the beats. The new recording sounds different, but the melody is the same. So when the minion is confronted, they say it's not the same source code as the one used by Smartmatic or Sequoia.

They're not really telling the truth. A judge won't understand and he or she won't know the difference because they don't know technology, zeros and bonds. The architecture is the same. The wallchard is the same. But they changed the programming language. The architecture, the flowchard, the essence, still owned and controlled by the same Benetuela.

So. You don't feel so bad about my accent. I mean, beyond better. Can I just print something out? Because I was involved in a project that was in a former, and again, I'm not an IT person. It was something that we were updating that was in a, while I was on active duty,

it was in a former computer code language. And it was not compatible with the system we were going to run it on. So my understanding is that you basically, when you change languages, you literally have to rewrite the entire thing. because you can't feed in one language into something else. So it's in a completely different language. Yeah.

Than the original smartmatic. But the entire book has basically said that it's one consistent thing. Yeah. Yeah, that's not true. It's currently now in a completely different language. the entire thing is completely different than what it was. Yeah, those projects are huge projects to move from one to the other. And then you have to also add in overtime the change in like containerization and

architecture and all of the innovation that happens through and the changes there. You're rewriting it regularly. That's why you employ teams of devs in a lot, you know, in a steady state. not just in the transformation part of it. To update, I worked on a project and I was doing people stuff, but the point of the project was taking an old technology system and rewriting the whole thing in a modern language. And the roadmap for that project was like three and a half years.

It's a huge undertaking. So this is an oversimplification. What they're saying, they pulled out the pieces and then put it in a new language. But it also sounds like they're saying there's no oversight in any way, shape, or form or any of this stuff. Right. So the Venezuelan developer did what the Venezuelan developer did from the old system to the new. Right? There's no oversight being.

Like, nobody else looked is what I'm saying. This, this right here was like fundamental to me that blew their entire premise of every chapter before that out of the water. Yeah. I mean, I don't know the nuanced differences and how nuanced it would be going from one to the other. But yeah, if you're changing languages, I mean, to me, as far as I know. No, rewriting the entire program. Yeah, yeah. Like the same things.

Like I learned a little bit of C++ when I was in high school. So that was 20 years ago. And I know like you couldn't take C++ and move it over to like JavaScript or, you know, something like that. It wouldn't work. Okay. But if you consider like if I'm. I'm writing, I write a paragraph or Ralph Pizzulo writes this page in English. It can be translated into Spanish and generally say the same nonsense.

Right. And more importantly, the people that they're using as experts from Smartmatic could not look at the current code because they are not literate in whatever the new code is. Right. And know that it's performing the same thing. So the whole premise is the source code is in a black box and nobody's ever seen it, except for the people that took it out and completely rewrote it. Well, according to them, the source code, the source code is created by the Venezuelans in 2004, stored on a hard drive kept in a vault in El Banco Central de Venezuela.

Right. What good would that do if all of the machines are using a different language? Right. It means absolutely nothing. And then on the does it do you have anything else on 171? Okay then on the very next page. Oh, I do have an answer to their question because I thought it was interesting that they went. Ralph Pizzulo here says what Brian just read, right? It's in the bank, central bank.

His next responses. So what is our response in the U.S.? Do we just accept this? Have we turned into a corrupt and dysfunctional country? Why don't the agencies charge with protecting our election? do a thorough and independent analysis of the source code controlling the software that is used to elect the president of the United States, governors and members of the Senate and Congress. And the answer is because they're the ones that steal elections. It's Americans that are stealing elections.

And this book is intended to distract us and make us think it's a bunch of foreigners to the extent that there's a bunch of foreigners involved. They're involved at the approval and with the collaboration of and the direction. of the Americans. Yeah. The willful refusal to pass the SAVE Act is a case and point of how complicit, not just complicit, but as beneficiaries, they have no desire to do anything to change any facet of the corrupt elections. In fact, all they ever want to do is make it easier to vote. More people get registered. Make sure

everybody registered if you take, when you take your first breath, you are automatically registered to vote. Like that, that's their ultimate wet dream right there. On page, what is this? 173, I just wrote LOL at the top. Oh, you know it's so funny is look what I wrote

in the picture. Wait a way. Yeah. I wrote in the picture, L.O.L. So the very first thing on the top of 172 it says the whistleblowers have a copy of the source session. Okay.

What the fuck? Did they get into that bank vault? Well, okay, but again, these whistleblowers are supposedly from Venezuela. So the source code that they would have in their possession is not the current translated language into a different language source code. Right. Right. Maybe they're bilingual. We do use Smartmatic in Los Angeles, so maybe we could get a case in Los Angeles. That's the only jurisdiction in all of America that uses Smartmatic. So maybe it could bring a case in L.A.

It just makes my head. Yeah. So it says, yeah, the whistleblowers have a copy of the source code in their possession. So why not commission a group of computer engineers to compare the source code they have to the source code being used to run the software in Dominion, Smartmatic, ESNS, HART inner Civic and other company voting machines in the United States and other countries around the world? what the fuck do you think we've been trying to do for five years? And do you know why we can't do that? Because Shia has a backdoor to it. Yeah, because they don't want us to see any of it.

You know what we could do? We could take the images that Tina Peters took and the images that Dallas Schroeder took and we could compare them, except we can't. Because the Americans took the images and will not, they've disappeared. Well, took Schroeder images, not those. The Schroeder images. Right. We have the Tina Peters images.

We could compare them. Easiest way to debunk her, no? Compare it and show that it really was human nature or human error in Mesa County that caused all of those anomalies. And over here in Albert, it's fine. But they didn't do that. They went on an all-out character assassination of the officials that took the images in Elbert County, then seized them by a court order and have refused to produce. them. And nobody in

Elbert County, Republicans, you know, the super honorable people that are totally in the seats of power now because elections are legitimate. None of those people are trying to get those images to see if we can actually tell whether or not they're actually legitimate. Yep.

We don't need more. We don't need the special super source code. We have those images that you're not ever supposed to have. We have two sets. All right. So the next thing we get into and have you ever, Ash, when you were in high school, maybe college, and you had to write a paper and you had to do like five page paper, right, on whatever. And you can only write like four pages and you're like, shit. Well, let me change the header in the footer a little bit, make it smaller.

Let me, instead of one and a half space, we'll do double space and I'll do 11.5 font. And look at that. I just made it to five pages. That's what this picture is. who controls and influences the election system and then you have a little picture of Venezuela that says mafia under it mafia and

the little the little arrows the little drop down arrows to Russia Cuba Iran and China and the way that this picture is drawn it looks as though Venezuela is controlling not the the line is broken on Russia so Russia

is out there on its own but Venezuela is is direct line controlling, influencing, Cuba, Iran, and China. I think they just made the mistake on the thing and forgot to put the line in here. They just didn't, they do have a dot, so you're probably right. There's an orphaned dot. So you are probably correct. So breaking news, Venezuela, the Venezuelan mafia,

controls Russia, Cuba, Iran, and China, according to this image. Xi Jinping, Putin, I don't even know who's in charge in Iran anymore, and whatever Castro is in Cuba. Y'all better be careful because the election system is no longer run by Venezuela because we captured Maduro, and he's the head of it all. And so you guys are screwed now. This is fundamentally retarded. This is this picture. I love that this whole story. line because both of us just to write LOL. LOL.

The craziest part is, is if you look at the drop-down menus, Russia and China are nuclear powers, okay? Other than those two, the other three, we are either at war with, on the brink of war with, or have done some sort of drastic military action against them, whether it's capturing Maduro, bombing Iran, or what we're talking about now with Cuba. It's kind of interesting. Really makes you start thinking. Do we want to read the list of the countries? Yeah, choose your own bad guy.

Everybody get excited because whatever country you've been taught to hate the most, you're going to be very excited. I did want to point out where under China, supposedly their role, China provides the money to run the system. And they build the election machines, which are then sent to warehouses in Taiwan. where they're repackaged and loaded with Smartmatic Software. And I'm thinking, doesn't someone actually buy the machines? Isn't their contracts?

Isn't that what they claimed that the Venezuelan government had spent like $200 million buying smartmatic machines? So how is China providing the money to run the system that supposedly in Venezuela. That's a good question. We did get some clarification here. De Nuttelman says the source code includes the database and system architectures and the programming. You can change the programming language and keep the system and database architectures the same.

It's done all the time. Okay. So that's an explanation for it. Interesting. But it's done. So it's done all the time from a legitimate standpoint. But it can't like in this instance, it's being suggested that the code is being held in this bank fault in Venezuela. It's rewritten and the the bad guys, I guess, are rewriting it and then deploying it how, right, across the ecosystem.

I don't know. I'm tied up on how you can do that. I get how you can do that legitimately and get everybody's in the loop. and everybody's understanding, you know, from the start to finish of updating the software, everybody's in the loop. But they're doing, according to the telling in the book, they're doing nefarious things. They're hiding a bunch of stuff in the code. And it's being deployed seamlessly across all of the infrastructure in the United States,

all of these different voting machine systems in the United States, and nobody knows it. That seems weird to me that you could do that. that you could get, you know, get away with that. I don't know, maybe. It says also China through the digital communications technology company, Huawei, owns massive servers in Serbia, which are used to store voting data and run the system. And Iran provides technical advice and, you know, because they have a lot of elections in Iran.

And computer engineers, several of whom worked out of CIS. C&E headquarters in Caracas and through oil sales. They also help pay for the manufacturing of the voting machines in China. Again, this is ridiculous. The people that have these contracts are paying for the manufacturing of these machines because whoever buys them, they're turning around and buying the machines. Are they just saying that China is basically an Iran are donating these machines and that Smartmatic is charging governments? for the machines when they're actually getting them for free from Iran in China.

How is everybody paying for it over here and we're paying to purchase that? Where's the money going? Does that make any sense? All the drugs, isn't it? All the drugs are funding it? So if Venezuela spent $200 million to buy voting machines but they're basically free because China and Iran are paying for them, are they saying smartmatic just took the $200 million and pocketed it?

Because everybody else has already paid for the machines. Well, there's, I mean, those contracts vary, don't they? In terms of whether you pay for the machines or lease the machines or your machine contracts are dependent on managed service and all those things are different all over the place. They keep them on the hook. They actually said they purchased them, though. Okay. So, well, then the next.

The next part where Martin says, you want to know where the Iranian foreign minister was on election day in 2020, Caracas, watching them steal the election. Now, the last statement I can't vouch for, but he actually was in Caracas in November 2020. Foreign minister Zarif,

it's not, it wasn't Araakshi, who's the foreign minister now. It was Zerif. And he was actually in Caracas. So they actually got something right. So in, right,

but that, that bit of truth, is being used to support the assertion that Venezuela was controlling the United States election from Caracas on Election Day in 2020. And that Iran paid for the machines manufactured in China. The Cuba section is interesting because it says nothing about Cuba. Go ahead and read that, Ash. The Venezuelan engineers who built the system were trained at Simone Bolivar University, a sister university. of MIT. Up until

2022, the president of MIT was Leo Rafael Raif, who was born in Venezuela, received his undergraduate degree in Venezuela, and served as an assistant professor at the Simone Boulevard University in Caracas.

Is he Cuban, Leo? No, he was born in Venezuela. So, you know what, when I was reading this one? Oh, it's the next paragraph. What I found most interesting about the relationship to this university being hooked up with MIT, MIT and the CIA are like in bed together. And so basically what this book is saying is that these graduates of an MIT slash CIA affiliated university in Venezuela is the ones that created the U.S. Smartmatic Machine.

when they got kicked out of Venezuela after Chavez came to power. I don't think they really expect us to know all of this background information and read this book. Yeah. This was intended to do a job, I think, right? And, you know, happy to have thwarted whatever that was. The next paragraph, Brian, Venezuelan computer engineers didn't need software and software advice from Cuba, but Cuban experts helped the Venezuelan engineers develop the election fraud system. Specifically, when it came time to build the poll books, Cuban intelligence sent out 10-man

teams with one Venezuelan to every province in the country. Why are the poll books important? They allow the infusion of new voters, et cetera, et cetera. But that's, so they didn't need software advice. They needed software advice for a different device? For poll books? Yeah, we didn't need software advice for the task. tabulation software. We needed them to help us develop the software in the poll books. So this is interesting. So let me read this part because this is this is interesting all in itself because it's a completely new claim from anything we've seen in the rest of the book.

Why are poll books important? They allow for the infusion of new voters modification of data or the possibility of identity theft. With poll books, you can perform an analysis of voters' behavior and participation rates. Poll books facilitate the projection of needed numbers of mail-in ballots to tip an election, the preparation of substitute ballots, and allow observation of the behavior of voters in real time. Say you live in Montgomery County and Albert is the electoral commissioner of Montgomery County. I am Dominion and I get Albert to choose me to run the election in Montgomery County. The first thing I'm going to ask Albert is for access to the voter registry database, which contains 30 years of voter history. Take all of that data and put it into a

poll book, which is basically data management software created by the Venezuelans. Every fucking thing is created by Venezuelans. It doesn't matter that the poll books are actually, allegedly, developed by Americans, you know, but everything is Venezuelan. Go ahead, Ash. What about poll chief? Well, so that's what I put on the side here. And this was one of the things that when Liberty Vote bought out Dominion, that was one of

the first things that popped into my head is because, you know, the Liondecker guy is from Noink, which is a poll book. You know, it's a poll book company. And one of the first things I said is this is a horrible idea. You're more, you're centralizing the apparatus even more, right? You're taking now one of the dominant election companies, voting machine companies, and pairing them with the poll book company and granted their two separate entities. Do they have any cross-pollination?

And if they do have cross pollination, you've now, because one of the things we saw in the 2020 election was with the CTCL money, the Zuckerbucks, was all of the companies that were clamoring for Zuckerbucks were also trying to use that money in order to gain access to the voter rolls in real time. And one of the kind of working theories that, you know, well, I'm not going to say with who, but that we came up with was that, you know, they're using these poll books. So in Michigan, for example, CERIR gave like $11 million to Michigan. And I think it was U.S. digital response, but I'm not quite sure. It was through the MCELA, which was, what's the second?

Jocelyn Benson, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson's NGO, her nonprofit, that she was president of while secretary of the state for a while, but not when this all happened. They got like $5 million or something like that. They got an insane amount of money from the CEIR funding. and the CEO of that or the president of that NGO, M-C-E-L-A, she was on a radio interview and said that they got access to the voter rolls in real-time so that they could text message voters and tell them, hey, reminder to go out and vote. And the reason that they justified getting the real-time access was so that they could take them off.

So you don't get those annoying text messages anymore. But it gave them that real-time access. And, you know, so another one of the issues that I've seen arise in, you know, the, the DiPerno-Lambert case that was going on up there was one of the claims was that the voting machines there have the voter rolls on the machine itself. So, you know, again, like the whole, this whole poll book thing is kind of interesting to me. And this isn't like poking fun at the authors in this case. This is genuinely interesting to me because this has been something I've said as a problem. with the system the whole time is what connectivity do the poll books have with the voting systems themselves. Yeah. So you're saying that they're essentially right about this bit. Yeah, I think they're actually on to something. But then they go and they shit themselves and say they're made by Venezuela. The poll books are Venezuelan too. Everything's Venezuela. All of them. Everywhere. To hammer, everything's a nail. All right. Keep going. Yeah. And we do just, you know, to put a fine point on it, we do have technologies and

software stacks from other nations involved in our elections like Connick and the the you know poll management software that's used through there that's Chinese and it's sitting on the same servers as Chinese the same on the same US servers there are Chinese election software stacks sitting as well which is just you know same sharing doors kind of thing and then you know that guy got five million dollars. Yeah. That's a good from prosecution to five million dollars. So are we reading? Well, I mean, basically the next paragraph just says that, you know, they can tell you how many, the poll books, if you have that data, can tell you how many Republicans are registered, Democrats are registered, blacks, African Americans, Italian Americans, like everything. So this, read the last

paragraph. How do you get Italian Americans? I thought it said Italian Americans. Brian, identifies as that. It did. How do you do that? That's not even... Yeah, that's not even an ethic. I know. I'm Italian and I've never identified on any government forms as Italian American.

Exactly. Okay. You were born here. If you were born in Italy and then moved here and you were still very proud of your heritage, but embracing your Americanism and for a period of time, you might represent yourself as Italian American. So are all African-American? Americans born in Africa?

No. Shit. They're the only ones that get to get to put their, their, you know, their, well, that's different. All right. So it says if you're planning to tamper with

election results, that data is critical. You know there are voters in the registry that you can capture and that the largest portion of the population that doesn't show up on election day is African American. This is very racist. This fact alone probably explains how Biden ended up with more black votes in 2020 than Obama did in both 2008 and the 2012 elections. The fact that that so the fact that the largest portion of the population that doesn't show up on election day is the African Americans is explains how black, how Biden got more black votes.

in 2020 than Obama in 2008 and 2012. The, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, so they steal the black votes the most is what he's alleging, I believe, right? Yes.

So we're weaponizing race again. Uh, so on page 176 in the second paragraph, I said it also tells me who died since the last election, who's still alive, who moved out of the country, who has moved in and hasn't registered yet. and who's living in California but is still registered in Montgomery County. This provides me the ability to strategically decide who to send mail and ballots to, which is the most vulnerable part of any election. And that to me is like,

that is a testament to why we need the Save Act. And again, I don't think it's going to, you know, all of a sudden, it's not a magic wand to fix our elections, but it takes away a lot of the stuff that's mentioned in the last page and a half here. So how does the poll books tell you who's died since the last election when we still have people that are 120 years old on the, they're still acting as alive in government systems? So this is the one thing that I was hoping that we would get out of Doge that we never really got anything further out of? and that's the Social Security Administration database because that is one of the

databases that's used to verify voter registration and voter eligibility. And, you know, somebody actually fact check me on a post with GROC because I said 440 million people on that, but it's actually 550 million people on the Social Security database.

So that's, you know, at least 220 million people. We're told there's 330 million people in this country, allegedly, 33 or something like that. So that's 220 million people in excess that are in the social security database. So if you go to register and you register with a

fake name, but it happens to be somebody that died 50 years ago, but still in the database, you'll probably get through to vote. And because they don't really, they want more people on there. They don't give a shit if you're actually dead. And so how does that tell you if a person's moved out of the country? No, it doesn't because it ties directly to the master source of truth that's in the voter file. The poll book, there's an exchange that has. happens where they take the master source of the voter registration information and they bring it to the poll to into the poll book and that's supposed to be the master source of truth what um came up and this is anecdotally uh you know individual voters experience but through navigating why she was denied being able to vote discovered that knowing and this is in indiana specifically was um had their own back end database so they so so the vendor took the master source of truth, but then had a mismatch.

And the reason that this came up is because the driver's license was scanned into the poll book. And it came up with the address, but a different name for the voter that different name them was on the driver's license. And that's pulling an address from a separate database file from the voter registration. So if you don't have colonel, if you don't have pristine voter rolls where only the eligible voters are able to vote, then your poll book is going to be wrong by definition. And that's my point. So it also goes on to say that it tells you who's moved in and not registered yet and who's living in California and still registered in Montgomery County. None of that is true

based on standalone state voter rolls. That's the whole purpose of that program called Eric. Eric builds itself as the solution to extracting voter rolls and DMV roles and making those comparisons and then sending lists back to the state for them supposedly to clean up their voter rolls but they do that only once a year i did a whole research thing into eric when desantis decided to sign ford to it because it's a piece of shit and um i it's basically a um a replacement for acorn it's a voter registration entity that is disguised as voter integrity And the only thing that does this right now because they accused the other guy that was doing it for free of being racist because they were kicking too many black people off the voter rolls because they weren't eligible to be voting for whatever reason to being registered in two different states, whatever. There was just too many black names coming up.

It was done out of Kansas. And it was basically free. You could just sign up for it. as a state and they implemented this Eric thing. And so not only does the state have to pay a contract for Eric to provide those, but if you don't use the, if you don't fulfill the voter registration piece of it, which they do four times a year as opposed to the integrity once a year, they charge you a fine for not doing it. So all of that stuff right there that they're

saying the poll books do. The poll books does not do that. The poll books just takes what's on the county and put it into their poll books. So it could be completely piece of trash. Yeah, I think the way that Eric is pitched depends on the state. It's voter integrity in states that pretend to care about that. It's voter access in states that don't. So in my state, the value statement that's presented about Eric is voter access and it's the eligible but unauthorized. It's not cleaning up anything. They don't, they don't even talk about like that's voter suppression. It's voter suppression to clean the voter rolls because that person might come back to life.

So how dare you? We can't take them off. But the eligible but unauthorized, they're all over that because they want more names on the voter rolls. So they're able to sell it through the legislature and all of that. Reup the funding every year because they want the access. And I think it just depends on which state. But at the end of the day, it's a scam to inflate voter rules. Yeah.

Here's the, this is a clip, it's only a minute long, but this is the president of Eric testifying before the Georgia Senate. I think, I think this was the Senate. It might have been the House. About eight months ago, maybe. In terms of Eric, date, I think we're looking at five or six times. Okay. Do you remember who those organizations are that? Most of them, yes.

Research Triangle Institute out of North Carolina. These are entities that they have shared their voter. data with. A couple of professors at a couple different universities on the East and West Coast. And then, of course, I think you know in 2020, the Center for Election, Innovation, and Reform partnered with some Eric states to evaluate the effectiveness of their eligible but unregistered mailing. Now, that Center for Election Innovation and Research is the David Becker organization, the one that got the Zucker Bucks that was talking about earlier, that got access to the voter rolls in Michigan.

this is them. Okay. Okay. Is there any affiliation with Eric or any of your partners with any of those organizations? No formal affiliation. And just for the record to clarify here too, so because I think you are aware, the executive director of CIR Center for Election Innovation Research was a non-voting board member on Eric until 2023.

the board eliminated those positions in 2023 and he was not reappointed. Yeah. What they didn't ask is when did you share it with CEIR? Oh, while he was still a board member in 2020. Oh, okay. Also, he was a non-voting board member. He was the founder. He founded the company. A non-voting board member.

He was the president. And also a client. My favorite all-time Eric story is the Alabama guy going to Washington, D.C. and standing in front of the UPS mailbox thing that was listed as Eric's headquarters. It was the mailroom at like a UPS mailroom. They have no office. And when they were pressed on it, because he made a huge, freaking big deal, it's what got DeSantis to back, Florida back out of Eric.

That expose from the Alabama Secretary of Elections, Secretary of State, whatever his job was. But he went there, filmed himself in front of the mailboxes and said, this is Eric's headquarters right here, this mailbox. And so I love it. So then what Eric came out and said was, yeah, we have such top secret information that we actually have this guy that lives in his car that he doesn't even. have a house because he's such a high value target, then he just moves around randomly. And I'm not kidding. That's basically what they said.

Did Tina Peters hire him to take images? That would track. Yeah, my favorite Eric moment is when the Eric sends a batch of voters to Colorado and they do all the integration that they do, all the different run the tests against the different groups, and they end up sending invitations to register to vote to 22,000 illegals who weren't eligible to vote. And then the following year, they did it again,

the following election cycle, they did it again to 30,000. And when they were caught, they said, oh, it was a data coding mismatch. Whoops, sorry, but out of those things, 30,000. Three of them were actual citizens. So, you know, let me see. So did you know that for Florida, the Eric contract actually says, because we had already implemented real ID here. So we have our citizenship information in the DMV. And did you know that Eric precludes when they extract the DMV data to send to Eric's? They are not allowed to send the column. that says you're a citizen.

Yep. I do know that. That's crazy. Yep. It's in the bylaws for every contract. It's all states. You're not allowed to send up nationality or citizenship status with any of the data you send to Eric. And that's, I believe that's plausible deniability for them.

So they know, like, when they go to clean the voter rolls, that's not a parameter that they're cleaning. It's on the states to determine it. And that's it. Once it goes beyond there, it's not up to Eric to determine that. Their whole purpose is not to clean them. It's to dirty them. To inflate them. Because once you have the information from the DMV minus citizenship,

you put it over here in the list of compared registered voters, and you send it back to the state telling them to contact all of the DMV people that are not registered to vote, which would be the mass majority of them, illegal people that's got a driver's license from that particular state. And so they are purposely dirtying the voter rolls under the guise of voter integrity. Yep, absolutely. It's the craziest thing I've ever seen. Yeah, me and Ash have talked extensively about Eric and David Becker, who's the founder of Eric and the founder of CEIR and the EOLDN, the election officials legal defense network, which by the way, did not offer any consultation or fees reimbursement to clerk Tina Peters.

The only election official that I know of that has been quote unquote prosecuted. I'd prefer persecuted for the 2020 election. And there's no plausible deniability in this. They all know it's happening. They know that the citizenship information is being transferred. I cross-examined Deputy Secretary of State Chris Beal and asked him and he's like, I told you they send, I didn't say they don't send non-citizens.

I said they don't send citizenship information. They all know. And then whenever it's, you know, the data coding mismatch. Sorry, our data practices suck. I guess that means we have a bunch of fake voters deal with it. It was an accident. Whoops. Yeah, every time I write an article about Eric,

and I've written numerous articles about Eric, both on my own substack and on Gateway. And every single time I write an article, about it, I make sure to include that bylaws part in there because everybody needs to know that our states are engaged in a contract with a voter role maintenance company that does not have a database that has your citizenship status in there. And that is something everybody needs to know. What is this person on about? Who here has advocated right now? We're all laughing about the Maduro thing. Not that it's justified or warranted. Nobody here wants. war with Venezuela or any other national leader deposed by the

fucking CIA. I guarantee you're in the wrong place forwarding that argument. Colonel, what were you about to say before we jump on? No, go ahead. All right. So on page 177, this was to me, this was, in my opinion, this was the most egregious error that they've made in this book.

And I'm going to read this. Another way to tamper with an election is through the use of flashcards. Immediately, I was like, oh, Windham, New Hampshire. According to the engineers, this was how elections were stolen in strongly Republican Maricopa County, Arizona, in the 2020 and 2022 election with flashcards. Maricopa County is home to 62% of the state's population and therefore dominates Arizona's politics. If you want to tamper with Sequoia Edge

ABC voting machines, the ones used in Maricopa County, you damage the flash card. Maricopa County uses Dominion, ICP, and ICX voting machines. They don't use Sequoia Edge AVC at all. In fact, to verify this, I texted somebody we know that would know this firsthand, but just in case, verifiedvoting.org has a great database

with all the voting systems that are in use and what jurisdiction uses what equipment. And Ash, can you read that part that's highlighted in red? I can zoom in for you. Yeah, zoom in. if you would as of 2022 the avc edge is no longer used in u.s elections we're talking about oh yeah so if it's wrong for the 222 part but to be fair this also says 2020 they use dominion in 2020 we all know that because we all covered the forensic audit in maricopa county quite extensively it was dominion

never heard sequoia come up not one single but is that but is that like like the predecessor to that version of Dominion? Nope. So Maricopo uses predominantly ICPs. The ICX there, it's not like Georgia. We're in Fulton County. The ICX is predominant. The ICX is a disability voting system.

It's for people with speaking, with hearing and vision and other impairments where they can't physically mark a handmark paper ballot. So the AVC Edge is a DRE, a direct recording equipment machine. And so that's where you punch the vote. and it prints out your ballot and the ballot's already filled out based on what you punched in. There is no Sequoia AVC Edge in use in Maricopa County in 2020 and 2022.

And again, you know, I messaged a friend of ours. I'm sure you guys could probably figure out who it is and asked them, hey, am I, just just to be clear here, Maricopa County does not use the Sequoia AVC Edge. And I think their exact words were, their exact words were what? No, Maricopa has the ICX for ballot marking. Edge was a DRE, easily hackable. And I don't think anyone has used them since 2020, 2020. They would know.

So, go ahead. False. Not only false. And you'll see it gets worse. It gets worse. Air on every page. Three vendors sell most of the machines used for voting and for counting votes. As of September 2016, the American election systems and software,

ESNS served 80 million registered voters. Canadian Dominion voting system, 70 million, American Hard InterCivic, 20 million, and smaller companies had less than 4 million each. Funny they don't mention Smartmatic in there covering L.A. County. It's interesting. Dominion voting system runs elections in Maricopa County using Sequoia touchscreen voting machines like the one pictured below. This is a description of voting machines from Sequoia's website.

The Sequoia AVC Edge is a touchscreen, direct recording electronic voting machine. It is multilingual voting. Just stop reading it because it's not true. There's no point in reading it. So then we get over to page 179 and I'll land this here. Here's an article from the Arizona Republic published on November 8th, 2022 voting day in Maricopa County. Voting got off to a glitchy start in Maricopa County on Tuesday morning because of widespread issues

involving the machines counting voters ballots. All of the county's 223. voting locations opened on time. But an hour into the election, voters and poll workers at some sites started reporting issues with tabulators. Initially, officials estimated about 10% of polling places were experiencing problems. This estimate was raised to 20% and then 30% of the county's voting locations. Draw three. Dore three, 19 inch, 20 inch ballot. This is not a problem necessarily with the machine itself. This is not a- need the source code, right?

Right. This was not Venezuela hacking into the systems in Maricopa County and causing glitches. This was a problem with the Lexapro. Was it Lexapro? Printers. Is that right? I think it was

Lexa. Is Lexmar? Lexmar makes more sense. LexaPar is a SSRI. Drug. Yeah, that's the SSRI. It was, whatever it was. The Lexmar. It might fit, to be honest. I mean, I feel like I need some after reading the book. But I mean, we sat through the entire Kerry Lake trial where this 19, 20-inch ballot and all of the problems that happened in Maricopa County were hashed out.

And never once was Sequoia mentioned. And never once was, you know, and not to, you know, I don't want to be on Lex Mark. Thank you, Raw Shark Lives. Never once was it really attributed specifically to Dominion. and the machines there. And so, like, you just have, like, a fundamental breakdown where they have no idea what the fuck they're talking about. I'll land that there.

Yeah. Yeah, you don't, you don't need. So if we can get there without this source code hacking thing to Brian's point that's never been brought up, that's worth, you know, pausing a moment on, right? And we don't need Venezuelans hacking the system. We do have Scott Jarrett lying on the same. about the issue that caused drawer three. And then the next day attempting to clean up his testimony,

that's the most likely thing that happened, guys, is it was the Americans, the Americans that caused the drawer three situation all on election day in Arizona. And I don't like, who does it benefit to make it about Venezuelan hackers? The people really behind the election interference. Yeah, and to this Marvel Jesus person, bro, I've never forwarded any argument whatsoever about Q plus. You're in the wrong place. Go argue with someone else who cares.

It's either a bot or a retard one or the other. So the next part's kind of interesting because when you actually read it, it's getting down to what I believe was one of the issues in Wyndham, New Hampshire. And I covered that audit pretty extensively back in 2021 as well. So I will read this section. If you're planning to steal an election, you don't need to tamper with votes across the whole county. You simply pre-select the neighborhoods you need to steal votes from in order to win a majority. You tamper with about 10% of the machines in the red neighborhoods or blue. And that is true.

That is what happened. The 1920-inch ballot discrepancy was predominantly in conservative precincts. But again, Maricopa County has ballot on demand. So it might be in a particularly conservative area, but technically anybody can vote anywhere in Maricopa County, which is absolutely absurd. When you prepare everything and it gets certified, you have to, you have what's called the hash signature. Those little flashcards are signed and approved

indicating you presented every piece of software that is supposed to be there. One thing you can do is take those hash signature flash cards ahead of voting in a particular county. You want to overturn and make one little mistake. Let's say you're preparing a voting machine for November 5th, 2024. The flash card needs to have exactly the same date,

November 5th, 2024, which is election, day. If you need to flip 20% of the votes in a particular area of the county, you record the date November 5th, 2025 on 20% on 20% of the flashcards. You change 2024 to 2025. When you insert the flash card on election day after a vote has been recorded, the machine will reject that flash card and say it's not a flash card for the correct year. So you're the county electoral commissioner, Joe. You see this go into a panic. You call Dominion and say 20% of the machines aren't working. What the hell? If I'm Dominion, I say, Joe, don't worry. My operator's goofed. It was a problem with the number. We fixed it. We have a second batch of flashcards.

But the flashcards I bring to replace the original ones haven't been audited by anyone. That's where I insert the script. And by law, those flashcards get destroyed at the end of the process. So even if you're audited by SISA or any other organization, there's no record of how votes were flipped. The evidence has been destroyed. This is exactly what happened in Maricopa County in 2020 and 2022. I mean, this isn't like these are not, these are not educated people. This claim is never been made in Maricopa County. That's because you didn't have the whistleblowers, Brian. You didn't understand because you didn't have the story of this book.

So the reason I read that is because in Wyndham, they still use D-Bold DREs. And they do still have those little cards that they insert into the machine. And when we were doing, when they were doing the audit up there, me and Nick were up there, observing it. And we saw some of the tapes that they were putting out. We were looking, you know, going down the tapes. And we noticed that so they had four machines that they were auditing. And one of the machines had a just flat out flipped vote. Like it was completely like on the other three machines, Trump got 70 percent, Biden got 30 percent. But then you go to machine number two and Trump got 30 percent and Biden got 70 percent. And so when they started doing the audit,

it on it, they started to run the ballots through those four machines. Like every ballot had to be run through all four machines to tabulate the votes out again. Well, wouldn't you know it? And in the middle of tabulating those votes, machine number two, the one that had the error, broke down. And they had to get a ball bearing to replace it. And so they went out, they got the ball bearing. They did the fix on it.

They reset the machine. And when they reset it, we looked at the tabulator tape and the date was changed on the tabulator tape from November 3rd. So they did this way later. I think it was like in July of 2021, but they set the machines to November 3rd, 2020 so that the machines would function. And this was part of Harry Hirsty's theory. I think he put a declaration in Wisconsin or something about this, that the machines can be programmed to act a certain way on a certain day, and every other day they'll act normal. So when they go back and they reset machine number two and finish scanning the ballots through machine number two, it wasn't set to November 3rd like the other three machines.

It was set to November 4th. And, you know, in New Hampshire, it's state law that all ballots have to be counted on election day, in person votes have to be tabulated on election day. And so changing that number from November 4th to November 3rd or from November 3rd, excuse me, to November 4th may have caused that machine to act differently. There's a possibility of it. We don't know because the memory card that was used in that machine was overwritten. They overwrote the card in front, like on camera, somebody saying, why are you doing this?

And he's like, I have to do this. He came to me at the symposium and he brought me the card and he's like, this is why I had to overwrite it. It only holds like eight kilobytes or something like that. And I'm like, that's not even a picture, you know, today in today's technology. And so that's why I thought that part was pretty interesting because the DRE flash card issue is actually an issue, but this is why hardly anybody uses DREs anymore. Right. Okay.

I'm done. So what happens when the vote is close enough where it requires a recount? You're auditing the tabulation, not the process. The recount will be the same. Why? Because you can't recount the flashcards because they've already been destroyed. The votes on those flashcards never figured into the tabulation. And that may or may not be true.

But from a recount standpoint, you're always, I was just looking at the, remember Brian, the box of chocolates analogy, right? You have a box of chocolates and you take it home and you have like six genuine delicious chocolates in there. And then you have, you know, a chocolate covered rock, chocolate covered dog crap, chocolate covered cardboard. And it's like, well, hang on a second. These aren't all real chocolates, but you count them.

and there's 12, right? That's what a recount is. There is no, they're right about you're not auditing the process. You're not looking at the ballot chain of custody or, you know, signature poll tapes, right? They did, they did recounts in Georgia, but the lack of signature signed poll tapes is coming up. And, you know, when did it come up for the first time? 2024, 2023? for the 2020.

For the 2020 election, right? Yeah, I think it was 22. So years later is the point that people are actually able to look at the process. And by that time, in election time, because election time are these condensed tiny little windows where things happen, it's too late. So recounts, they love recounts because recounts aren't audits. I think you'd probably be smart to land here because from here, in it gets kind of technical again and to be honest I would like to do more research like I was trying to do all the research and I think there's a lot more that we need to know before we get into this

I need to make some phone calls and that kind of stuff okay if we're good with that you mean we do we do still have 15 minutes so um I mean there's a lot going on we could talk about maricopa we could talk about every show is why we vote every show is why we vote I mean, there's a lot to talk about. We got Colonel Towner here. We could talk about the CIA operation that's going on today. I mean, Ghost and I went long today on daily. And towards the end there, man, it got really interesting our assessment on this.

Have you seen, have you been following that closely, Colonel? What? The Iran regime change that's taken place. Yeah. Have you seen some of Trump's newest messaging that's going out there? some of it um i was busy all day today well let me let me let me see if i can find this clip real quick um if you want to you know what let's play let's play our soft disclosure ad ash if you want to play that absolutely all four plus i think they have to find that legend says on st patrick's day

a beard without oil is just a chin with ambition but a beard with soft disclosure beard oil that's true treasure Spiced vanilla, naked, smooth as a leprechaun's getaway plan. Soft enough to impress your barber, bold enough to confuse a baby goat. And this bore bristle brush tames your beard like it holds the crown coin. Every bottle is American made, which means when you buy soft disclosure, you're supporting six American small businesses. That's not luck, that's capitalism with cheekbones.

And while you're at it, try our mint-green deodorant, because even legends need fresh pits. need fresh pits. Soft disclosure, go for gold.

Ash and that team are fantastic. Greenstar. It's Cheryl and Green Star. I just laugh at them. Yeah, you guys are absolutely incredible. All right. So here's the clip I want to play, Colonel. And so, to kind of set this up, President Trump started out saying that we're going to, we're going to eliminate this regime, and then we're going to let you guys pick your own regime.

Then we got the CIA as working up the Kurds to send the Kurds in to take it over. And Trump was like, no, no, no, no, no, the Kurds aren't going in. The Kurds were like, oh, thank God, we didn't want to go in anyways. And now we've got Motaba Homani, which is Ali Homanie's son, allegedly as the Ayatollah. Trump was asked by Donna Bash the other day. Are you okay with a theocratic leader? And he's like, yeah, I think I'm okay with a theocratic leader. You know, it's not our place.

You know, so now listen to this answer here and tell me the, well, I'll play it. You've said you have someone in mind to be the new Iranian leadership, if not the Ayatollah son. What are you looking for in that person? Are you looking at someone internal given that you just said that their leadership has been. I like the idea of, you know, internal and eternal come to think. of it, but I like the idea of internal because it works well. I mean, I think we've proven that so far in Venezuela. We have a woman, Delsey, who has been, you know, president of the country, very respected, very, she's doing a great job, and it's, you know, no disruption. We had, as you remember, Iraq,

everybody got fired. The military got fired, the police got fired, the politicians got fired. There was nobody. And you know what they turned into ISIS? And we don't want that. We don't want that. So I would like to see people that are inside go now they talk about the son of the Shah. They talk about other people. But, you know, hasn't been there in many, many years. We have a formula that's been very good so far. And I think it'll continue to be good. The relationship is extraordinary with Venezuela, smart country. We've taken it. out 100 million barrels of oil. It's right now in Houston being taken care of and made so beautiful. And you have to see this at work. They have, it's brought to the refineries. It's being

refined in Houston, which is made exactly for that product. And so far, but it's a hundred million barrels of oil. And now they have another hundred million barrels coming. And it's like a partnership. We're getting along so well with them. It's great for Venezuela and it's great for the United States. So there's a lot of little nuanced things that he was saying in there, Colonel. I'll let you take the first stab at it. Well, back to your former point about the, you know, selection of a leader and your reference to the CIA, which just so everybody understands, it's much bigger than the CIA in the case of Iran. My research into Iran, I did not realize the extent to which Germany, France, and the UK has continued to trade through proxies with Iran since 1979.

I mean, it's huge. And so obviously to me, when you mentioned the Kurds, as soon as somebody threw that out that, you know, hey, that that was the headline, you know, the Kurds, the CIA is going to arm the Kurds. I'm like, yeah, no, they're not falling for that again. But I do think the media, i.e. the CIA, is setting the premise that there's going to be a balkanization of Iran, that you're going to have like a Kurdish area. And I don't know if you read the, there was a headline today about the tribes in the South had stated that, whether it's true or not, I don't know, I just read the headline,

well, the article, that they were amenable to having the Shaw Jr. in control. And so I think they're setting up the balkanization, the breaking apart of Iran into, and that is very much a prototype of what the CIA likes to do. They like to have those different entities under different control, which is what they did in Yugoslavia. I mean, that's why they call it the Balkans, the Balkans, the Balkanization. that process. And so I think that's kind of what they have in mind. But that's not what's going to happen.

I don't, yeah, I was about to say, I don't think Trump has that in mind at all. I don't think Pahlavi's going to have any role in this government. He will not. Palavi, so what I got from that, and I said that, so we played that clip this morning. I saw that clip this morning. Yesterday on Daily, I said that with Hemeni's son being in place there. We're starting and Pahlavi, we played Pahlavi yesterday saying that I'm the chosen one. They chose me to lead the country. So I accept the responsibility and all this shit. In English, by the way, an Iranian addressing in English, that's not to the Iranians. That's to the Americans and to the Western democracies. And Trump comes out and gives Pahlavi the Maria Kuna, Karina Machado, who Kuna Matata treatment and says, well, he hasn't been there for a while.

And I just don't know. I don't know if he's going to be there. But then he goes, go ahead. Go ahead. Well, I was going to say he goes on to say, you know, we want the internal and eternal, which eternal would be the Ayatollah, right? It's an eternal position. You're there forever.

The internal and eternal, keep it within the regime. Because when you go back and look at Iraq and you look at all these other places that we've created vacuums in, the vacuum is filled by CIA entities. ISIS, Al-Qaeda, you know, the entities like that. And I think Trump knows that. And he's trying to prevent something like that now from happening. And he's saying that, hey, I might have to, you know, work out a deal and negotiate somehow with Hemeni's son, which, you know, we still have peace through strength, right? We've showed them what we're capable of doing. We killed his dad. Well, I think his dad's been dead for a while. I'm with Gordon on that. I think his dad's been dead for a couple

months now. But we've showed them. And this is how we put that regime change in place. I think how many is going to be, continue to be the Ayatollah of Iran. And I think that, yeah, we're going to completely stall the CIA's plan of putting Pahlavi in that position. By the way, I just want to add one last thing. Yesterday live was Zach when I was on the show, I went and looked and I was like, I wonder just out of curiosity, has Pahlavi been nominated or won like a Nobel Prize or something. You know, just something that they can put out there to show how great this guy is. And in 2024, he won the Richard Nixon Medal of Peace.

Nice. Yeah, it's spot the globalist. That's how you can navigate. It's the same thing with Maria Korean-Machato. Who's, and let's go back to COVID. Who's the invisible enemy? Who are we fighting? Who are we really fighting?

And when you want to identify those people, you look for the globalist. You look for like Brian did the awards and who are the backers and, you know, what's the what's the long, long term platform? And it's pretty easy to identify a globalist when you when you look at their interest of who's back and then all of those things. It's easy. So, yeah. And do you know what age Pavlovi was the last time he set foot in Iran? It's been like 20 years, hasn't it? He was 17.

Yeah. He was not there to come to pilot. training in the United States, the revolution happened in 1979 and he couldn't go back. He has been here since 1979. See her I was born. It's been for my whole life. And I mean, the CIA ultimately in 1953, the CIA ultimately installed the Shah. I mean, most a day was removed.

Reinstalled, right, reinstalled. But, you know, they removed Mosadee. You still had the two days and I can't remember the Iranian extremist, the Islamic extremist group, Fasilin or something like that that were against the National Front. And it's obviously their desire to put Pahlavi back in there, which is why he addresses in English. Go ahead. And they did it with stay behinds using the tribes in the South. I don't know if you know that, but there was a army military advisory group with the CIA. in the South training the stay behind units which were used as the foot soldiers in the

1950s coup. So Trump, you know, and again, going yesterday, I said he's got the formula from Venezuela. And then today he says, we've got a good formula. We've got a form. We know it works. We remove Maduro. We put Delci in and everything's great in Venezuela. We're working on trade deals. We're doing good things. And then I think it was either I think it was yesterday that, you know, the Cuba thing came up and regime change in Cuba. And what did Trump say with regime change in Cuba? Well, I think it's still going to be somebody in the Castro family. I still think it's going to be somebody in that network.

We're just going to have to, you know, figure out a way to work with it. Like, he is just every time these neocon, warmonger globalists want the kinetic regime change. Trump is just yanking that rug out from right underneath him. 100%. Yeah, this is definitely getting spicy. I see, you know, I still have, and, you know, people will be like, oh, CanCon is not blackpilling anymore. No, I still in blackpilling a little bit because he's up against some fierce adversaries

in this. And, you know, there is still the possibility of escalations in this, in this battle, whatever you want to call it. But I'm not, I don't think it's as likely now that we see boots on the ground. I used to give it about a 15, 20% chance. Now it's probably like 5%. You reserve the right to take any color pill you want. I can.

Well, you've seen what that looks like. But to me, this has been a rolling continuum of taking out all of the CIA MI6 puppets in this. But here's going to be the very interesting piece of this whole thing is Turkey. Turkey is going to play a pivotal role in all of this, I think. And I think that one's going to be one of the last, because they're very much still kind of a big question mark in my mind as to their affiliations because they've kind of tried to play the spoiler in many different events. So I definitely have that one still on my map. Let me see if I can, I want to pull this up and make sure before I go there. But so we played, we, we played the reception that President Trump gave Erdogan

versus the reception that he gave Netanyahu at the White House. Did you ever see that video? Uh-uh. Oh, man. I have it up on my Twitter. I'm probably the horses. No, that was, that was MBS. No, that, no, that wasn't MBS.

Who was that? That was, uh, was a Qatar, no. It was somebody that, like, pissed everybody off because they're like, we don't deal with these people. Azerbaijan, no. And then B. came through, like, the service entrance, right? And no, B, B, so, so Erdogan and Bibi came through the same part of the White House.

They came in through the same entrance. When Erdogan came up, they had a, you know, a color guard out there all the way around. They had all the flags up around the, the, the, the car came in, with the Turkish flags on the real state visit kind of a real state visit yeah when net and yahoo came up none of that none of that they got the xolinski treatment huh yeah pretty much i can't why the fuck can't i remember who it was that had that crazy visit the horses were cool i thought it was nb yes yeah i think it might have been nbs but why but why was it nbs i was I was like it wouldn't make horses march.

It's a good power projection, I think. Oh, absolutely. Especially in the functionality or the, it's a royalty type. Yes. You know, it's kind of almost like a mocking of the UK, in my opinion as well. Oh, I love it when we mock the U.S. It's my second favorite nation to, well, I mean, I guess it's the same nation, Canada, right? It's not good Canada first, but pretty much the same nation.

So yeah, pretty much. So here is the, here's the Turkish one. First, you have Netanyahu on the left. That's net and, yeah, it's pixelated, but, you know, you have Netanyahu there on the left. Car backs away. car drives away a little wave i think it's sped up and the 21 point plan is everyone on board and then this is this is erdogan riding up you got the nifted guard out there marines and ath and i and some what's the old guard and this was before net and yahoo looks like four days yeah this was four days

before net and yahoo yikes so nothing so here's the entrance here and there's the entrance there on the right So yeah. Completely different. Completely different. Completely different. I still think, I firmly believe that Netanyahu jumped the gun and attacked. Iran earlier than was planned. If the plan was even finalized, negotiations were still going on.

And I think now Trump said the other day that in order for us to pull out, it's got to be a mutual decision between me and Netanyahu. and I think Trump is going to make Netanyahu cry uncle. He's going to make him, you know, beg for this to end. So we'll see. All right. We are all out of time. We're all out of the time. I don't know.

I don't think we have any rants. Hit the like and buy lotion. Yes. Hit the like in soft disclosure.com. promo code little bright. Did you see my caricatur characterization of your video? Brian and the sky. with lotion.
