00:00I've given this example before, you're driving over a bridge, you know, late at night, three
00:05in the morning, and you know, some guy jumps out in front of you on a bicycle and you hit
00:11that person, you know, you may not even get a ticket.
00:14If the person did, didn't jump out and it was their fault and you know, the person died
00:19and it's a tragedy, no doubt, but you may get out of that without a ticket.
00:23Same exact thing happens, three o'clock in the morning, same bridge, you're drinking,
00:27leaving a bar, you got a blood alcohol level, 72 times the legal limit and you hit a person
00:32on a sidewalk in a bike, same exact spot, I promise you're going to jail.
00:35Same exact thing happened, but it's the predicate acts.
00:39The predicate acts in what should have been a secure secret service site, the predicate
00:44acts should have been securing the damn site.
00:48You had at minimum two to three days, at maximum seven days, I'm still trying to get from my
00:53sources how long of a site advance this was, the site advance agent had probably anywhere
01:00from two to seven days to secure that site.
01:02How the hell do you give up the visual tactical high ground and have no way to get up on the
01:07roof?
01:08The body cam video is damning.
01:11Not only do they not secure the roof, there's no one watching the roof and there's no way
01:16to access the roof.
01:18For those of you out there who are in the military, SWAT, you're police officers, you
01:22know this very simple axiomatic truth of tactics.
01:26You never, ever, ever give up the high ground.
01:29The reasons aren't complicated, folks.
01:31You don't need to be a physics major to figure it out.
01:35If you occupy the high ground, let's use a simple example.
01:39You're on a ladder near a wall looking down on a mosh pit full of people, really simple,
01:46and you have a firearm.
01:48What's the benefit you have?
01:50The benefit is you can see them, they can't see you.
01:56The benefit of the high ground also is just simple gravity.
02:01You get to shoot down at them, while if they shoot back at you, the bullets can't go up
02:06over the wall and come down.
02:08They may in the future, but they don't now.
02:12It's not hard.
02:13You never, ever, ever forfeit the high ground.
02:17Folks, I was an instructor in the Secret Service Academy for three years.
02:22My name was actually signed to a lot of the investigative courses we rewrote.
02:26You can go check it out if you can FOIA that stuff.
02:28Look about the time I was there.
02:29You'll see it.
02:30I don't make up stories.
02:31I'm not Tim Walz.
02:34This is not complicated.
02:37People know this instinctively by playing Cowboys and Indians and playing war when they're kids.
02:43When we were kids in Glendale, that's when we would play war on the weekends.
02:47Everybody have their fake guns.
02:48We had the, I remember I had the Jaguar Matic.
02:50It was a cap gun or something.
02:52It just looked, they look really cool.
02:53They don't sell those anymore because they look too real.
02:56Now every fake gun is like green or pink or something like that.
03:00We were kids.
03:01It was just funny because back then there were no mass shootings or anything.
03:04Now no kids are allowed to play with fake guns.
03:06Everybody, these kids want to kill everyone.
03:08When I was a kid, my favorite spot was we had a little garage in the back of my house.
03:14It was the attached garage.
03:16In New York City, everything was like alleyways and stuff and I would go and climb up the
03:19back of that.
03:20Why?
03:21Because I could see everybody coming and they couldn't see me.
03:24You don't need advanced secret service, advanced training to figure this out.
03:30Not only did they seed the high ground at this site, they had no way to access it.
03:37Now combine all of this grotesque, what I believe to be potentially borderline criminal
03:43negligence at this point, with this new shocking story about the Pakistani guy who was supposedly
03:51engaged in Iranian plot to assassinate President Trump, which I told you to be skeptical about.
03:59Combine that with this and ladies and gentlemen, tell me we aren't in a massive misinformation
04:04washing machine right now being thrown around.
04:07Do you know that every time you tap, swipe, or insert your credit card, you could be helping
04:11big banks give billions to liberal causes?
04:13It's true.
04:14It's time to get woke out of your wallet.
04:16Let me tell you about the COIN credit card.
04:18Find them at COIGN.com.
04:22The COIN card works like every other credit card you've ever had with one huge difference.
04:26Every time you use your COIN card, COIN donates to great American patriotic charities.
04:30That's right.
04:31COIN is a visa-backed credit card, one of America's first credit cards built by and
04:36for conservatives.
04:37Unlike other leading credit cards that give millions to the left each year, COIN is helping
04:41conservatives to align their dollars with their values.
04:43It's one of the only conservative credit cards that helps you to pay with a purpose while
04:47you earn rewards.
04:49The COIN credit card donates to conservative charities.
04:52Just last year, they donated more to several conservative charities, likely more than the
04:55top 10 credit card companies combined.

05:13Our good friend Mike Benz, a friend of the show, where we always go for deep state information,
05:18put this out on Twitter.
05:20He says, remember the Pakistani guy just arrested for a plot to assassinate Trump?
05:25Well, the F-
