And we're gonna get into a whole bunch of new stories including the ones we just talked about right now. First, what I do want to do is talk about our sponsor and our sponsor Is Catholic.

And anyway, they have a fantastic page Catholic vote.org. Check them out. And we've got the chat going on right now. Live folks on Rumble. You can see yourself, we're putting it on the screen but before we get too rowdy, let's get our body on here. I'm going to jump in with real Steve friend.

Let me make see. I push the right buttons. Here. He is Steve friend and I just see Eric joined us. So welcome to the chat Eric, thanks for being here buddy. Steve French. And welcome to the Kyle Serafin. Show. Once again, great to be with you, you are a celebrity now, mr. Mr. Tim pool, guest extraordinaire, don't tell it around. You said you had something from the from the temple.

Think so folks, if you don't watch him pull regularly, I had, I had family members, tell me, they never even seen that show or heard of it before. But I was on team pools fairly large podcast on Monday night, Monday evening. I also got about six hours of sleep over a period of three days. So that's kind of brutal.

What? What were you watching on there that that spun you up. I was just thought that this would be a great test of your, your marriage bonds, because I was thinking the whole time you're there you're going to be checking out their setup and you're the you're the tackleberry in everything that you do. And you're going to be super jealous of whatever high speed equipment as and you're going to come home with about 10 to 15 grand already spent in your head and still remain married.

Yes. Well first of all, my wife knows exactly who I am. She knows exactly what I'm about. So the idea that I Would spend money on gear. Mmm, that's built into the whole thing. Somebody was responding to me on Twitter the other day and I had an issue with something. The ATF had said and they some other lady, some anti-gun lady goes, you know like oh the AR-15 when a bullet is shot out of the AR-15 as opposed to any other platform.

It hits with twice the you know the force and it does you know at least three times the damage or something like that. And someone said, oh God don't let her know about the Sig MCX and I said, oh yeah, don't and then they said well I wish I had the kind of money to afford it. I was like, oh shoot I got to I've got to sit against the exes and I've shot their new spear light platform and they're both awesome.

They're all the same. And then I've also talked to my buddies and buying them, I have it on, good authority. I think from the president that the AR-15 will blow the lungs out of anybody that it did hit Center Mass it's only if it's in 9 mm it has for a 9 millimeter. So pistol caliber, carbine a are only blow the lungs out. The other ones, hit body parts and explode that was his argument.

I think Okay. So apparently he's basing his entire knowledge on watching The Expendables Trilogy, as that's as far as knowledge. Correct. And now we can pivot nicely on that. Thanks. So that folks, if you are in the chat by the way, hit the like button. You can subscribe to this channel. Most of you probably already are, but I do appreciate that. If you are talking about The Expendables, let's tell people how you came up with because this is your baby.

We have a state of the suspended balls. I'm looking at this as sort of a state of the union. And our Union is the suspend bills. I'm actually wearing Fellows to spendables t-shirt right now, the last line strength this is our buddy garrity's boils t-shirt brand and it came off. You know it's the same name as his sub stack. How did you come up with suspend apples? I know it's tied to Expendables tell people what a suspended all is.

Well I think Alyssa spendable is just somebody that's willing to draw a line in the sand and say that they're not going to cross that line you know whatever whatever your guiding force is on that. Having being a person of conviction you don't necessarily have to have been in law enforcement. Military. You don't actually have to have been suspended from service. I think it's just it's a principle statement but originally it was just sort of a on a lark.

I threw it out because we were all kind of in state of limbo unpaid with guys who had a unique set of skills that I thought maybe we could be mercs and rip off The Expendables and call ourselves the spendables and then our Buddy Alan fewer at the New York Times, got hold of that, it put it into print and the the newspaper of record. So it is an official moniker that we can now proudly. Display and is it pronounced fear, or are you pretty confident with that?

I've no idea, but he doesn't know how to spell my name. So I don't think I'm going to take the time to learn how to pronounce his. Yep. I'm on board with that. That, that checks out New York Times, a famous clown show at this point. Unfortunately, as who is it? Andrew Clavin likes to say a former newspaper. So they are what they are. What is the state of this Expendables? This point we hang it in there. Are they winning? Are they going to take us down or No.

I mean it's just sort of this. I keep calling the the FBI like the comparing to a big stack at the poker table. So they're just kind of used to having the largest deck and they lean on all the players and they fancy themselves. A good poker player as a result of that. But they don't really skilled anything else other than just

having a large stack. So they can, they can bring a lot of resources to bear as executive Management's found the saying, any time, they do the coming to kiss up to the local, sheriff, or police chief, but at the end, They don't have the the skill prerequisite that we do. They're not Nimble and they're not really critical thinkers. So I think we've been able to outmaneuver them and even catch them on some of their efforts recently to maybe Mmm. Trap us into something or maybe

make us look bad. I think there's been some efforts on their part that you and I have talked about that. We might want to talk about now, where I think that there might be some, some Wheels spinning up at FBI headquarters about how to tarnish this Expendables. Yeah, people need to understand that. We have a chat group that we

keep going on an encrypted app. And one of the fun things about it is, is every once in a while will do something and then you'll get this, this message from one of the other guys. Usually, it's producer. Phil, who likes to write in all quotes? You'd like, sir, they've done. The so-and-so thing, whatever the thing is, it's always him just lampooning. These guys, one of the best things you can do to a government agency and that includes the ATF, although they're used to it.

The FBI is not so used to it. One of the best things you can do is just Lampoon them is to not take them seriously because they're not a serious organization. But they fancy themselves to be, probably the most serious organization, right? Oh, without a doubt. I mean there, they still, they hurt themselves, patting themselves on the back calling themselves, the premier law,

enforcement agency. I mean, you gotta Do some a lot of each airtime yoga to get through the flexibility, to Pat yourself on the back, as much of the FBI likes to do, but they're just not that we haven't had any examples of Great Law Enforcement on their, their part even recently they could even hang their hat on. And it's when was the last time they had that big giant press conference was wasn't something that was very politically. Controversial.

Like Christopher a gets up after the proud boys conviction, which half the country sees as a problem or when's the last time they had. Had you know the the giant stack of heroin and the 68 guns on the table. We're not going guys. Now there's not that press conference doesn't exist anymore. As as Eric in the chat just said he said bun Gina likes to talk about the lips being surgically attacked to attach to the asses of whatever the establishment is 100% accurate.

In fact, you talk about what is the big case that we're doing right now? And one of the big cases is something that George Hill sent us. Write this morning about this Airman, who was in what was The Tennessee National Guard. Yes. Like they stopped the next John Wick. Yeah, he was applying to be a hit, man. I mean, first of all, I have to question your intelligence. If you just go on the internet and look for Hitman for hire. What's wrong with rent? A hit man.

I think that seems perfectly useful, that's what you want to be. I mean, I think that's run by the same guys. They're like syrup.

They're trying to execute a hit man under prize, but what's even goofier, is it. He mentioned in this video that we saw was something about the The old ask a ninja which some people may remember early YouTube days, there was a guy who was asked a ninja and he's like coming in, you know, we're in the ninja mask and all this kind of thing and then he would answer ridiculous questions that people would ask that from, you know, fake ninja perspective. It was about that serious.

And then yet, apparently, this kid applied 10 times or something like that. So, that's the FBI's big takedown. We got the John Wick, the the Airmen who believes that he was going to go to rent, a Hitman.com and callsign Reaper as you recall. But only after he Almost a dozen times. Did they actually try to stop this from happening?

I mean, you would think that once or twice might be the necessary, predicate, open a full investigation and come down quickly, maybe using a criminal complaint as opposed to going after former employees who walked into the capital 27 months ago because experience was necessary. But apparently, they waited, they wanted almost get to the the full Baker's Dozen number of applications. This guy put in judge Wright actually sign up to kill people. Yeah, we need to have the entire thing.

I'm gonna throw your Tweet up here on the screen for people to look at. This is a tweet from Steve's Twitter account. If you're not following him, it's real. It's at real. Steve friend. Steve spelled, steve80, not however Allen Ferrer. Might spell your name incorrectly and what you said was assistant director, Jennifer more subpoenaed for transcribed, interview with the Judiciary Committee and that's happening today, right? That's today's thing. Yeah, yeah.

That's what was before today. Okay. I'm going to pull up some of the stuff you showed, so some of the visuals that you attached on, there were a sort of security division wellness program. We can talk about that in the

second. There's this happiness, seminar that I know you just put out, I want you to kind of touch on those the wellness room and the relaxation room that was happening, which I think was a Newark and then there's some other things that need to be talked about with the FBI Pilots. I'm going to just give you free rein and I want you to just just full send.

What is your what is your message that you hope the Judiciary committee's going to Cover with our buddy drunk Jenny AKA Jennifer Moore who may or may not be a drunk who's come into the office drunk? Possibly well, she's under subpoena now because she's already gone to do a transcript interview and refused to cooperate.

So and she tried to hide behind, I can't comment on ongoing investigations, which is kind of weird because she heads up human resources and I don't think they do investigations. And then she tried to hide behind the privacy act which specifically spells out that you're allowed to speak to Congress about these matters. So cool. Knowledge of Human Resources in the Privacy Act is, is not there, but that's not really surprised.

She doesn't have any background from what I can tell in human resources, in fact, trees and houses was talking about that. She had done some digging and you know, she has a background in marketing or something to that effect. And then then 20 something years in the FBI not having touched the case and how long 15 2005 2005 is. Last time she was a in quote unquote investigator.

So almost two decades. Yeah, that's a really long time, but that's about that's standard for executive management, right? They're not getting Involved in this? Yeah I mean well she came in in like the mid 90s as a not agent as a professional staff her. So she's gone almost 30 years in the FBI and for 30 years, having six years of investigative experience seems like kind of a kind of what you'd expect. Yeah, kind of what you expect from leadership.

I continue to tell people. It's management, it's not leadership, there's no. There is no FBI leadership. The leadership actually happens at the ground level. It's agent agent. It's peer-to-peer. It's sometimes. Advisors, although it's less and less common. I feel like I mean, never in the eight years that I was doing investigations.

Did I come across a question in a case or look for some Sage wisdom that I think I'm gonna go to my special agent in charge and think what they would do to work. This case who's one. Who do you go to when, when you're, when you're looking around you're like okay, I'm working this thing, who knows what's going on? Who do you go to? There's just like the OG guy in whatever Squad that works. That particular violation never promoted, he knows them. Yeah, never mode.

Had been working it for 20 years. He's got all the institutional knowledge. And I mean, I've sat down with that guy and then like, hey, look, I have this interview coming up with this guy. He might have shot this gun and some people and he said, all right, this was going to happen. You're going to ask him this. He's going to say that you're going to ask him this. He's going to say that. And then you're going to ask him this, and then he's going to confess, they're gonna give it

to you. They say screw for you because they've done this game and they've done it over and over again. We shouldn't be talking about hit man. Apparently because jigsaw Massacre and the chat was just saying Hitman for hire will travel We'll hit for food. Never, never underestimate the stupidity of the FBI to actually look at our chat and see that, but I do think that's that's about, that'll be their next Big K. So luckily we've got that going on. It's a vow to fold this about

you. Did, you did some coverage of some of the stuff that we thought, that obviously, it's underneath Jenny Moore's division. I'm looking over at the screen of the, the tweets. You did talk to me about where that came from, so people have a background of it and then also, you can pump your Twitter account because a lot of this stuff, Gets broken on your Twitter account and then apparently stifled, you've got

you always like to joke. There's a Twitter sensor at the FBI that only works during weekdays and shut you down. Sure, sir. He's putting out another embarrassing tweet for us because we got it down so good. So let's do the the SEC D1 first. This is sort of the national walking day. The yoga, the things that you'd like to see and discuss their, what is that all look like? Well, that came out a couple weeks ago from somebody within the actual security Division and

that was going to be lunchtime. Throughout the month of April and May they're going to have these like 30 minute sessions where they could go for long walks or do chair. Yoga coloring with crayons or painting lessons and that was supposed to facilitate a more positive work environment and have we not seen chair yoga. Have you done any Research into that? I feel like that's up your

alley. Not that you would do a heavy, would do the research on it. I mean, I'm yeah, I'm all about Fitness here, but I don't like riding a bike because I feel like I sit down. So on the standing desk guy was out of noxious guy who just never sits so that to me just spoke, you can't get people to show up to lunch to do yoga because that's to physically draining.

So if we let them bring their wheelie chair in though, they might show up because we're worried about attendance at this event, which we obviously use taxpayer dollars for and we want to promote within the security division because we want to create this Silicone Valley ask style workspace, that we can all

celebrate that. That's really it to do your Delta, it's a Silicon Valley, it's the modern Workforce thing, they're trying to accommodate the work space for the future Workforce of people, many of whom are kind of gentle. Did you know I use actually use to sell the chairs that the FBI, not the specific ones, the FBI bought on that contract, but I used to sell the actual model and brand of chairs that the, the pyramid. Does that surprise you at all? You're the renaissance, man. I do.

I goal is to one day, tether life experience that you didn't actually either involve yourself in selling that equipment or be an instructor. They're certified at multiple levels Advanced on, I need to hear about how you got the X chairs. I didn't, I've never done any extras, but so those chairs are all called their human scale, Freedom chairs. And that's what they're actually called. And the freedom chair is designed for freedom of movement.

They were designed by a guy named Niles different. Who is a very famous industrial designer actually of all things and they're really good chairs. I mean, they're the bureau probably pay somewhere in the 500 dollar per chair range. Like if you were going to go buy one of those things on your own there close to 1,000 bucks. They're a good chair and You know, of course, the bureau doesn't maintain them. Even though they have a lifetime warranty, they're actually made

in the u.s. Piscataway New Jersey. I still remember the stuff. This is all from like 2005. That's what I used to work there. So just the last time, Jennifer Moore, Jennifer more work together indicate. I was selling furniture to Silicon Valley types. Honestly we would go and hit tech companies and things like that and they're an ergonomic office chair, and then the high-back ones that you see, those are there not for executives there.

For people who need neck support that do a lot of typing. They're actually for the people who are doing the real work, which makes sense, right? Because you saw the high back and they'd be like, Oh, I'm gonna go - I need that. It's like that. You don't? Yeah, you're not even in your chair, you're not even working.

I don't know what you're doing. I mean, my favorite was when they pushed hard for the, the standing desks, which I actually, I mean, I used, I thought was good but that you get people that would fight and get online ahead of you to get the standing desk. So I was among the last people actually get one and then I would walk around the office and my headquarters, and I'd see them always standing desks and they be lowered to the lowest possible setting. So they could sit on their chair.

And then they'd be really awkwardly doing. Yeah. Most people should be sitting at a task here. There's a whole lecture about this. I used to do this for a living as I said. So, Would go in there and everybody wanted to standing chair because that was the new hot thing or the standing desk. But a variable height desk is Not Practical for most people. For most situations, they don't

actually have that problem. Sitting is actually really good, it just has to be done correctly and so there's ways you can mitigate all that chair yoga. Obviously, a disappointment, what's the happiness, seminar, I've got that. I'm gonna, I'm gonna bring it up real quick. What is a happiness seminar? What in the world? Why did they share this? Who shared it and why?

Oh man. So so Opal moles of mine, came out with this, and they said, this was on the, the green side, it was within the SharePoint unclassified system. The FBI has and it was being promoted that I guess is a headquarters event that it was going to be multiple Parts. I think it was going to be two different sessions that they want to do to. They want to get as many bodies as they get through it. And in different parts are going to talk about the effects of smiling.

Good words and doing good. Deeds. Good words, good, good work. Yeah, apparently you Larry, let me some good words. Give me that how they long are they like onomatopoeia and people go like, oh, that is a good word. Now, they would have said, SAT words then, which is probably racist correctly. That's, that's true. It is. It is biased D. In the chat wanted to know how happy can one get and a half hour class on happiness?

What do you think any any ideas I mean, did they crack into the evidence drug evidence unit and we did it That guy was actually out of Washington field office. As you know that. Yes, yeah that was the one that was in his car, right? He was taken. He was taking heroin essentially out of there. He had got hooked on pills from some injury like a lot of people do and then he decided he was

had a ready access. So he was signing other people's name to you know to this whole evidence Locker Scandal. So all these people got investigated as potentially being involved and the cameras, you know, proved that they were innocent but it took years. And so all their stuff was kind of under review. They weren't able to do anything and one of those I was a friend of mine, he sat in my he was so disillusioned with the FBI, of course, now he's a supervisor.

So I'm sure he's fine. Actually, similarly happened to Buddy, my when he was brand new agent, his training agent was using his forging his signature on Source payments and just pocketing the money. Whoa. Yeah, so he's a brand-new on probation, gets called in essays. He needs to see you and they're like, what is this? And he's just basically said, let's not my signature. No way. Yeah. So, he lets me that and he explained that to me, he's like, Yeah, just they called them.

My, they figured it out, they called my training agent in and then like they kind of concocted a way to like not have his gun on him and just so they could just grab them up. Yeah, that's terrible. That's really a bad. That what? An awful experience. We know so many bad stories about the way. People just deal dealt with really, really awful stuff within the bureau and so it leads you to be distrustful of both the FBI and then also of your colleagues.

There's this sort of mistrust And left and right. You know we have people reach out to us at always want to like vet us even though like we're out in the public saying what we say you could bet me pretty easily you can vet. You go watch your Fox News interviews.

Go watch what you've said on news max, you've set it on a national Forum. Somebody was accusing, you know me and I'm sure they've accused you of being like an FBI op and you had the funniest comment about that the other day when we were privately chatting about it. What do you think about us being an FBI op.

I'm like the worst cop ever. I mean, I'm just I mean I was accused of being like a SIM for Russia because I was sort of I was told that I was on a whistleblower show and did a my full content, my Spiel revealed everything that I've been

saying. If you looked at it you don't see one difference from one interview to the next and then that program sold itself to RT right before that, I was called a Russia Today Sip and I'm like, did you watch the content because that's sort of revelatory of where I stand. Not things. Like I'm the one that brought out the opr files. So I mean, you literally are dirty laundry and embarrassed. Zero. Somebody was saying and here's why I think it's funny.

I think it might have been Garrett that said he was just like the FBI would not be capable of running an OP as good as Kyle is if that was the case because you can't bring that kind of genuine disgust for the agency and actually still work for the agency. Correct. I mean well I mean I might be the perfect FBI out because it would be run so poorly. They would wind up revealing, the opr files to the news media. That's it there CHS. Unlike the CHS is apparently they were going through

Congress, right? Right. I'm going to bring up the this article that happens. So this was something that was in the The Daily Caller and this is was brought to our attention. This is as exclusive. It's time to clean house, former senior FBI agents blast the politicization of the bureau. I think that's relevant to this, this hearing that's coming up. And then we've this is the kind of the piece that I took away from it.

I'm going to read it out to you. Just folks, if you're seeing we're running through this on the running through this on the rumble video, there's an entire article, you're welcome to go read it but one of the things that I thought was most relevant Most important thing is they said they identified with Nikki. Parker's claims, the FBI has become politically weaponized. We observed firsthand that too many FBI, current agents. Too many FBI, current agents. That's a really way to say are

suffering from low morale. Americans have lost trust. They show some of these other sort of things, but they tagged you and George Hill and Garrett O'Boyle, and and, you know, so they've got a couple of these little pieces but they said that they didn't want to be They didn't want to be exposed because they were fearing retribution even though they're supposedly senior former agents. You had a different take on this. Whether this was actually former

agents, or what did you think? Might be current agents doing running up? Yeah, I mean, you and I both have some networks of former agents and I reached out to mine and was just kind of like, hey, is this you? Because that's, I guess, thank you, I guess I, but I was kind of you of there's no risk to you if you're out of the agency. So, Why wouldn't you reveal your name? And that seems like, sort of an anonymous police force report.

That's not really revealing. Any new information being run through a news source to me, was it just didn't pass the smell test and then even just reading the statement about the state of the low morale state within the current agents. Well, how would you know that you're retired? So how are you commenting on current morale state? So, I mean, it just makes me a little bit suspicious that this could be an effort to get out there and And then Sully the

reputation and other way. Because then, you know, once you know what, the rubber band snaps back and then they pull the move that your phone, your friend Nance does and goes from praising you to condemning you within, you know, a couple weeks. The only time I think about John Nance is when somebody mentions John Nance to me and it's not that frequently. So thanks for bringing that up. People. If you read Town Hall, you'll have seen some hit pieces on me, which is sort of hilarious.

You've also if you followed and bungee know you've heard him lambaste this guy Bye. And so he was a former supervisor of mine and I try not to bring them up because I just don't, I don't really care and I'm not trying to get into a pissing contest with people that are former agents, you know, he and I didn't have any beef when we work together. So the fact that he's sort of has a jealousy over my Twitter account or the fact that I'm doing a podcast is sort of

embarrassing. He walked out with his pension and you know, that's that's the nature of why the FBI is the way it is right now. It's a bunch of people that knew what was wrong and they stuck around to get their pension. And then then what then they want to call out people that did something that has nothing to do with them. Kind of bizarre. You got a thought on that? I could tell. Okay, I can see it on your face.

Just the adult. The retired agents I think are the ones I've spoken to their first their load to sort of condemn the guys behind them. It's sort of like the old tradition of the. Once you leave you're the president. You don't badmouth the present, the current president. You just kind of fade off into the sunset. I think though those days are going to have to go away. I think that they're going to come around to the understanding that there.

If they're even their silence on what's been going on, if the agency since their departure is going to be essentially complicit in its continuing, they have to speak out at this point and it's unfortunate that they're put in that situation. I mean, look, you did your services, your 20-30 years. You should be able to just enjoy your retirement, but unfortunately, there's the entire agencies leadership or management classes populated by these political actors.

Now that are just tarnishing, everything that you built your entire career on. And I don't, You. But if, you know, if I've done that, if I had been the guys that were bringing in these big cases and had built the reputation of the FBI, be pretty poed. If it was just now, it's the agency going after Mark Hulk and and chasing misdemeanor crimes because they're politically convenient. Yeah, I'd be pissed. There's no reason to like I am pissed.

I'm pissed because they took something that could have been really great. It could have been one of the great jobs and they screwed it up and they screwed it up for the people that used to be there. Because some of those guys are out there using that reputation to get Jobs. And I know that's kind of why they're trying to, they're trying to hide from, from calling it out. But at this point, if you're not on the side, calling it out, then you're complicit in the

problem. It feels like that's, that's my take on it. I suspect you have a similar sense. Yeah. I mean, and then you were calling the FBI like a trans agency, it is. It's having a Bud Light moment. It's, it's becoming this cultural phenomenon where used to be this point directly to the day. So, yeah, you're having your Tweet of the day though. The FBI. Having a Bud Light moment. Is it could have actually, we could have actually called this

entire show that correct. Why not just change the title. Uh-huh. The yeah they are that's what's happened. A Bud Light. I mean, I saw that Babylon. Be thing. Where was like, two frat Bros, drinking cosmopolitan's tease, their brother for drinking a Bud Light and I have not seen that yet. And I think that the FBI is having that moment where it's gone from Point Break which is one of the guys in my Academy class said, That's the only reason I applied to be in the FBI.

That's what I named installed on average. You know that Johnny Utah. No, no. I was already against the FBI by the time, I have my kid now and he's over to so I named my kid. Bodie. Alright, huh, because he got away respect, respect, people ask me that? Why did you bully has? They're like, where does that name come from? And I was like, oh, it comes from Point Break and they're like, I don't remember, Bodie. I'm like yeah you do.

That's Kurt Russell's character. Patrick Swayze, Patrick Swayze, why did I call Curtis? I don't know. I always mix those guys up in my head. Yeah, it's Patrick Swayze's character and he gets away right at the end of it. He vaya con dios is he surfaces way off into Oblivion, and that's right, and he wins, and I always figured like, getting away from the FBI winning, you know? That's, that's the sort of the goals were in the Reagan mask to, right?

Yeah, he was. Yeah, yeah, but you have that cultural moment, you know where. That's that's the utmost. FBI is awesome. Cool guy job. Was what it is now where we have lots of 09.

Nick Nolte was in there, right. Nick Nolte was the guy that you go to ask for all the information he was he was at that was his that was as accurate as it gets new fresh young blood who knows nothing Nick Nolte who's like salty banging on the roof of his car as he drives out like has to go get a guy out of a fight because he didn't want to be in the fight all of that stuff that's perfectly pure they actually it's not very realistic in many ways but those characters were

legit that Typecast is legit. That guy who's like, you know, I gotta be in his Bonnet about this one case and everybody's teasing, he's like, no, I'm right. I've been doing this long enough. I've been doing this since you were in diapers. I know this, this is these, the guys, and because I built this evidence up and then he's on surveillance and leaves because

he's hungry at like 10:30. And once a burrito, I had a guy, I had an agent who had 20 almost 20 years, and she was getting ready to retire, and we went out did surveillance on a subject that I ended up arresting him later, but we were sitting on his on his house. He basically had just skipped out the minute before we had. On there. So we knocked on the door, wasn't there, is he going to be back? We don't know.

Talk to the manager, it was an RV park of all places and so then we set up on surveillance and I and we were there for 45 hours, you know, nothing exceptional. I used to do this for a living. I used to spend eight 10 hours, it was no big deal. So sitting for so, for 45 hours is kind of just like, that's a chill moment and I had another guy in the car with me, which is never the case. So, we were, we were doubled up into different Vehicles.

It was an arrest package that didn't, you know, didn't end up being an arrest. And she radios over, I'll go we almost done yet and I'm like one, this is Your case, that's very funny. So we're done whenever you say so but to I'm not going to call it. I got one, I'm not the team leader and to we just got started and when we left you said that's the longest I've ever done surveillance in my entire career. So bad. Exactly what you expect though. They don't want to do it like they're salty.

There, they don't care. They did it old school. They just will get them. Another day was a classic you know FBI move. And anyway I don't want to do Point Break too far. I do want to unless you have a closing thought on Point Break which is great. Now Just just epic moment, Johnny Utah. This is fortunate, unfortunately, that, you know, his career, never panned out in the NFL, correct? Yeah, I wish you would have my one of my kids named one of my buddies. Kid's name is Johnny, so Johnny

and Bodie can get together. And you know, destroy things. Maybe take Banks down. I'm going to put up this year so in the Daily Caller, they linked from my name.

The hyperlink from my name actually goes to another article that they wrote the FBI to retract, the Catholic infiltration memo actually like Catholic infiltration, better than the radical traditionalist Catholic memo and for Some reason you've seen the the picture before Steve, but they've got the FBI agents in the re Jack as and it says, Private Road. No through traffic. I don't know where they got that shot but it's kind of great anyway. It's a whole piece about sort of

the Catholic situation. They have another one here that they linked through that showed that, you know, I should Expose and you and I have talked about the LGBT by bias training. That's going on today. Lee callers done, some pretty good work, calling out the FBI and that that actually goes back to December of last year. Some of the stuff is little bit older end of the day, you know, FBI targeting Catholics and doing the sort of piece. I feel like it's like a national

Trend right now. It's not just even the FBI. I know you're not a Catholic but you're Catholic adjacent in many ways. And that true. Sure. Will you help me help people? What your connection, everybody that I keep running into has this like Catholic adjacent position and and that's why I actually feel like it's really good.

The sponsor that we picked up like they do meet Catholic you, it actually means Universal. It's not a that was the idea that it was named that way, it's the universal, you know, Christian. Church except it's the universal Catholic church because Catholic means Universal. Anyway, it doesn't make a difference. That's what the word is supposed to mean. And and all of us, like all the suspended will seem to have some connection to it. Yeah, yeah.

So my mom side, the family as she's, it's, she and three brothers, all the siblings, and my mom, all married Catholics, and they come from a Jewish family. So, there's all my cousins were once I Jewish ones like Catholic, I went to know M-my, dad went to Notre Dame.

So I think I'd probably have to, like, famous Catholic University. I mean up there, it's almost Jazz it at this point, but when I was their best way back when in the early aughts, they still have sort of held to Traditional Values and I'm was actually the resident assistant in my dorm as a senior and we had to go to mass. So I mean I've been to mass times and mean it was it was great. It wasn't exclusive and it wasn't Anti lgbtqia and it didn't promote any white

supremacy. Are you feeling any of those sort of Notions from your time being exposed? No, no, it didn't. I think the at that time, actually, the most controversial thing that the priest that ran our dormitory talked about with us, he said he didn't like Oprah because she encouraged just general spirituality as opposed to an actual religious denomination. And at the time, I kind of rolled my eyes, like mad, he's hardcore, but Mike. Yeah, maybe father V was onto

something. Father, God, the Father through be was on to something. There's something very, very specific and strange about the idea that you're going to your. We got really gentle in this country. It's the old Hard Times, Hard Men, right. Good time, soft. Mend idea. We went to that good times and everybody was like, oh yeah, I'm not religious, but I'm spiritual Daniel. Tosh, who was by? No means.

You know, he probably has a Christian background, but he has, he doesn't espouse any Christian values. In any of his, his comedy, he roasts people that say, like, I'm not religious, but I'm spiritual. And that was something that I think you, and I grew up and that was a big 90s thing and I think that was actually some of the transition there. So, when you start doing that stuff, you go like oh that's that's how we lost it.

We lost the thread. When people started doing this Oprah spirituality, this General like I would call it. Whoo, I don't know whether any other way. It's there are actually It's to religion on purpose. You have to actually have a, just being a quote unquote. Spiritual person means almost nothing to me. It means that you're just lying. I was just reading this Return of the strong God's book that's been written. I don't know what that is, but I love the way that sounds that

sounds. Oh, it's a, it's a, it's basically an Artful philosophical argument. Sort of, with the point you're making where it was.

It's like a post-world war two. Thought that just infiltrated across the political Spectrum left and right, they all sort of digested, it, and pushed Out that it was Devotion to this authoritarianism, well, in order to prevent a Nazi, ask, or a Soviet, something from fascist state from rising, we all just have to be like, radically independent and shirk, anything that could unite us. And unfortunately, now, you know, that's the church has taken on that.

Well, if you you're a radical nationalist, your radical Christian Nationalist. And that's, and because of that, and we're just being pushed into being spiritual rather than religious. So they're actually, there's a strong position on the left, trying to replace the G and God with the G from government. I think, and I think you and I have experienced some of that I want to bring up an article real

quick here. And this thing is unrelated to anything that you and I are involved in but I think we're all part of this fight. If you're watching on Rumble you can see this the Articles from the post-millennial that Sandy knows outfit. It's his parents of Catholic students who spoke out against gender neutral bathrooms in Ontario schools. So, this is Canada. It's not u.s. is being put on leave from teaching positions.

So the parents of this kid who did, what I would say is the right thing, doesn't want to be involved in a gender-neutral bathroom situation, he's wearing a make America great again.

Had looks like in his picture and essentially his folks have been removed from their jobs and that's kind of the nature of the Beast. Right now, it's like if you do something then everybody who's near you is going to be accountable for it and he's a 17 year old kid who went to a Catholic High School of all places and yet still the sort of secular tolerance movement has been able. To cancel his parents and they cancel, Evan.

I just think there's so many whether you're a Catholic or Catholic adjacent and many of you who are just, you know, any denomination of Christian or Catholic adjacent. In fact, that's the person who brought me that that radical traditionalist Catholic document also Catholic adjacent which is to say a Christian at large. It's seriously dangerous stuff. And then you know the leftist government has to push it otherwise. Otherwise they lose.

What's scary is that? It seems like everything that starts now in Canada eventually, if I don't find himself in California which eventually finds itself around the country because that's that's the bleeding edge of the the political left in our country. I do think it's sort of funny that the guy from Canada is wearing a Maga hat. I mean hilarious. Yeah. They're in fact, a lot of the people that follow me on the different social media platforms.

Are they claimed if they're Maga people and yet, they're not, they're not American bye. Yeah, we're as our side here is can't rock the Ukrainian flag enough, did Matter what political party. They just everybody's got a lapel pin with Ukraine flag and I say that with my better half coming from that country. Yeah, I spoke with your wife a little bit ago who didn't want to get on camera because she was apparently sweaty. But but she's from Ukraine.

Like if anybody in the world should be, you know, pumping the Ukraine flag. It's a family that has ancestry and or a place of birth that is in common with that flag and and that's not doesn't sound like you got an American flag behind you. Yeah. Yeah, I mean and you look, she's not as in the know on the current events of the day, but I think we're worldviews. Technically, you know, kind of overlapped pretty well, which is

why we're married. But she recognizes the fact that, you know, she lives in this country now and moved here when she was a teenager. And so, she can still remember being in Ukraine and obviously as fond as for family and friends. And that's the thing that we all have, regardless of where he grew up in life, he could, you have that. But, I mean, we've had moments where we were very early in our relationship, going in our marriage going, grocery shopping.

And I remember getting up, Bananas ethic and like putting the in the cart and she was like had this moment of flashback? She said I remember my mom used to just save and save and save to buy one banana and we would share that banana together and it was like this I was like they're a V8 sent. Well the time before inflation there were like 88 cents for a dozen of them. Yeah from Holland. Yeah. Like you want more bananas? I had known? I don't know how to react.

I've never dealt with that. That's right. As I've lived in this country but You know, she recognizes that. And I think she's all about this country. Now, as far as she has, family and friends back there, that she's worried about, but as far as the politics of it, nope. No, not all about it. Yeah. Scott in the chat says you don't have to Thump A Bible to be a good person. I think you and I could both agree on that. In fact, some of the best people, I know do not have a

Bible at all. They never want to bring it up. I think what's really important is not that you Thump A Bible, it's that you live according to it. That actually used to be the standard in this country. Nobody ever talked about religion. I never heard about it when I was a kid. It was just You had some religion and the people who didn't live based on it, seemed like the least happy.

It also seems like the people that are maybe not thumping, the Bible but the nicest people that I know tend to be very religious and even people that, you know, are part of a religion. I'm not real crazy about like, like things that people who are Mormons, you know, you don't have to like what the Mormons say, as far as their spirituality, but man, you can, you'd have a hard time finding like an everyday Mormon person, especially guys, like I met in the bureau that are like the

nicest people. They are the nicest. People. They are living their values out and they, you know, they have kids, and they take care of their family. That's not to say, there's not bad Mormons, I'm sure there are, but Church leadership. Everywhere is sketchy. I mean, I'm a big proponent of like follow the best practices. So if you want to, like have six pack abs you should do, you know the work out that Chris

Hemsworth does. Like you should do that if you want to be. I wondered how much for doing that. Yeah. You should do you do the with a rich people do in their life. As much as you can and if you want to be happy or like, Jim seemed to be like a really good person. What does like the commonality they have and they're all like, well, yeah, we can meet you on Sunday afternoon because we're

in church Sunday morning. That's just seems to be almost Universal. So I've it's not saying like you got a bump a Bible but like why not give it a shot? I mean, they seem to have their ducks in a row. I think it's probably probably worth even just emulating fake it till you make it. Maybe that's, that's true. And so, as an Example of making it and I know you folks, you know, you read your kids patriotic documents that you guys are you knowed about human beings, but it's not something

that you go everywhere with. I want to just kind of comment this out. We'll let you in the chat said Mr. Friend, the NASCAR photo with your son with ear protectors. Being a mini, you was amazing. Your kids look super happy. NASCAR decided to use you guys. As an example. They probably didn't know who you were, which is even funnier, but but I think that, that is

the example. It's like go out with your kids, you know, demonstrate your good values, and then people will either want to Light those and they'll find out what you're about. And you know, this is everybody knows who watches the show. Is, this is not a religious show but it is more and more becoming one of those things in this country where we can't ignore that. There is a tax on religion, and if you care about American values, this country was founded on freedom of religion.

It's very important to me. It's strange to be in that fight because I didn't pick that fight and I don't think you necessarily would have picked that fight. In fact, I'm more than happy to defend atheist. I'm more than happy to defend people who are Nazis, that should have the right to protest. I'm going to debunk them the way you and I did in that Twitter space the other day. I'm going to go after Word

crush. The the stupid arguments of white supremacist but I still think you have the right to say it. And that comes from a sort of the founding document in this country which are fundamentally a Christian position. It's weird to be in kind of a fight where we have to, we have to argue both sides because of the way that our oath works and yet no one had a problem with it for, you know, 100 plus years, doing it the right way. I'd say, post-civil War, right? No, no problem with it at all.

I mean, look, we're all recognize like the Mayflower was Real. I mean they might not teach in school anymore with the CRT but those guys left Europe and established continent to just go into the Wilderness because they wanted to worship the way they want it, right, that much. I'm, that's that you want to talk about. Bravery like it. People would say like all your braids whistleblower, I'm like, and I wasn't on the Mayflower.

Are you kidding me, right? You knowing that you're going to look at your family and say, like, well probably half of our children are going to survive this trip, but we still need to do it. Right is amazing. It's a, I mean, yeah, I'm going to Pivot a little bit towards something else that's been going on. This is a tweet that I have up from Jilly Kelly. I think this is also something to be. We talked about operations, may be being run, Julie, Kelly

recruited tweeted out. Something said this is there something really, really shady about this kid. There's a guy named Eric Myers right now and I'll give you the background on it in case you haven't seen it, he wrote. I can Publican publicly confirm during my brief time in the congressman's office that I secretly met with Agents from

the FBI. In an effort to work as a confidential informant and human asset against the congressman, during my course of employment, in his office, this is the kid. So his name is, like I said, his name is Derek Myers, he's got a, the White House lit up with the rainbow flag on his profile. That's his profile background picture. So I don't know if he's gay or if he just likes the idea of the gay lighting that they did. But what's very strange to me?

And, and also, it's probably news to a lot of people. He mentions that he was trying to work as a human source. While working the congressman he's mentioning is is Jorge Santos. So I'm going to pull up a CNN article real quick here. Folks if you're watching you can see it says exclusive representative. Jorge Santos is charged by the justice department in a federal

probe that came out yesterday. And as of this morning, there's Santos right there, as of this morning, they're supposed to be reading, sort of the unsealed indictments and he supposed to be what arraigned in there. They're going to be bringing him up. I think in Brooklyn says, At Brookland us, attorney's, office is going to unveil, this is the New York's eastern district, it was where they did the charges. So, anyway, so here's there's Jorge Santos.

Come what are your thoughts about recruiting sources inside of a congressman's office? Or a journalist claiming that he actively sought out to be an FBI informant while working there a couple thoughts. It's extremely disturbing that, you know, elected official that this is, this is back to find me the man and I'll find you the crime, obviously. Jorge Santos has, you know, he's getting the media.

He's like this outward. They know he lied on his record to get in order to get elected and it's certainly something that's embarrassing for that district and that's something that we that but it's something that everybody can think. Well that guys are jerks. Oh yeah, we should probably get get rid of him anyway, necessary and that's cracked the door open

for using these tools know. So we're going to find the example that a broad swath of Americans will look at and say, like okay it's probably a good thing that we got rid of that open liar. Who's just flaunting it in our face anyway that we can. Meanwhile, now the FBI has a standard operating procedure where they can use. CHS has confidence human sources inside other congressmen and

Senators offices. Because there's a roadmap for it. And now that precedent has been set and I told that the keep going on for a long time. Sure. But I believing two charges is we're just going to hourly Target. What's to stop them from doing that to anybody else? I wonder if it's better that there actually are charges, that are actually indictable, although it's in, it's in In New York. So you know New York is one of

those softer seats. Generally, southern district of New York, seems like it's a really easy thing, but eastern district may be as well. It's certainly not going to be as hard to go after a Jorge Santos.

Here's my concern. At least if there's charges, we have some, we have some transparency, and we can evaluate it. A lot of the people that I've been talking to, and I've talked to a number of intelligence analyst who told me, reading source information, from inside members of Congress has office, offices is common which scares the hell out of me. Because when I was actually working for watching field, one of the things they told us was

is that you needed special permission from Congress to recruit sources inside of Congress. That was the way it was briefed to me, I may have misunderstood what was said, but it was my understanding that we could not act. They go after and get Congressional sources and then if they're doing it for intelligence purposes, you and I both know how dangerous that can be, you know, they don't need to ever come to a criminal predicate, in that case, they can just run it forever.

It could. That's and that's why the intelligence apparatus needs to be completely dismantle from from the FBI ticket away from it entirely. It's it's being used for something like this. Where? Yeah, they just they just have to have an intelligence case open. There's not a potential for a crime, we're just gathering information, right? And we could have have you know and we see the information got leaked all the time.

So who's to say that they're not providing this in this strategizing that's going on you know with whatever whatever issue that the Congress person is dealing with to a political rival so they can kind of figure out, you know, how to combat it. So there's no doubt that's happening but I was just you talk about this, I don't know, a few weeks ago on a podcast and it was something that came to mind were was positioning

sources inside. Mosques and I think with the intelligence apparatus the way it is and the way that the human sources are dealt with it, there's the pressure to just have these sources in place so that should you need to activate them at any time? Then there are available and with a lot of mosques are now probably Catholic parishes. Nothing nefarious is going on there, but they have to justify having the source are eventually when the review period comes up

to say, they have something. And that's when you have these entrapment schemes happened that Trevor Aaronson talked about where they pushed it, or they wind up charging somebody with something that's not related to why you have the source here, we have a we have a confidential human Source inside a mosque, because they might be prestige, a writing task but T's material

support to terrorism, right? But we're going to charged with child porn because we need to justify The Source be in there. That's so with this we're going to justify having the informant in a congressman's office and will contrive something.

And I'm sure that, you know, they'll be something weird that comes out of this Brooklyn. Your attorney or Brooklyn, us attorney's office, unless it's something that I could become till the wrong, maybe he was doing something, but if it was occurred in Brooklyn, I don't know if it's happened since he was elected because that would have been going on in d.c. Do you remember? Remember, Bob Menendez, sorry menenius, right? New Jersey for New Jersey. I told up here so people can see it.

This is from The New York Times. This is obviously. No, no right-leaning. Source says Senator, Robert Menendez faces and new federal investigation in Creek. It's five years after the justice department dropped their corruption case against him. He was a New Jersey Democrat. And there he is right there. So they actually indicted on bribery charges and then they let him go. There's another one of them going against him in 2022. I don't know what that looks like, on stuff like that.

You know, corruption bribery charges. I want to see those investigations. I don't want to see the FBI investigating like potential,

you know, sexual what is it? Harassment type stuff like Seems way way below it. But if your, but if you are a in a public trust position, especially if you're a senator, or if you're elected official, who isn't getting a maybe you're like the Biden family who happens to be receiving a bunch of shady payments from the Chinese and all of your family members are getting paid out like that. Sounds like something we should be doing investigations in as a

country. We should be doing that but I don't want to see someone like go like oh there's the man. As you mentioned, we're going to go find the crime on this guy, we're going to run it down. That seems like a like the the antithesis of what the FBI. Be doing. Do you think that there's maybe there's like I have an alternative Theory, but now that I'm thinking about this, we're talking about it. That allegation, that the source provide information that Joe Biden was accepting money as

vice president. Could that have been we're just going to put a strategic human Source, within the staff of the vice president. And so if he does commit something, then we'll then we'll take action and then he did commit something. But then the people in place thought we maybe we better hide that so on Gino, has maybe a more plausible. Area, which is to say that this guy was actually probably reporting on something else and it just came up during the source brief debrief, that's

right. I think it's more likely that it. They touch the third rail on accident and then, once it's been disclosed, because the source actually wasn't honest, operator and had a bunch of information to share about something else, whatever that may have been. It could have been related to Charlie McGonigle or some of the other kind of weird stuff that was going on. It could have been about Hunter. It could have been about you name it.

There's a lot of different ways that you could do that, but then it's like, well, now this person has made a credible allegation and then. So now we're screwed in this position. What do we do with it? Sounds like that. I read it. Sounds like they should have buried, it sounds like it's going to be coming out, there's going to be some, you know, some there's a subpoena already, that's about it. But we're going to end up with that executive privilege game

where they're going to say. Well it's an ongoing investigation and all the other reasons that we don't do it. So it's strange. But yeah, it's certainly possible that they put sources in there and, and is that even reasonable that we're putting sources into these governmental offices preemptively? No, no, I don't think it is. I mean, I think you have to give these guys, the latitude, they've essentially been vetted by the American electorate.

Thank you. Need to have some, at least a predicate to do some sort of Investigation. You can't just preemptively do it. And with that allegation, I think there's also plausible that may be a good citizen came in with direct information about Biden, doing something wrong and thought of case was being opened. And then whoever took it thought, I'll just open them up as a source and say that I admonish them as a source in there, on the books as a source.

And that individual might not even know that there are sourced from the FBI. Indeed, I'm just looking through the chat who is Who just said that AVS man. 36 said I love that shirt, Kyle. I want one. Where'd you get it? Oh, that's cookie. Hey cookie. So I got this from from Garrett, O'Boyle my body. Maybe we'll put these in the suspend Apple Store. I think you can go to the Kyle Serafin store. Know, was that the Kyle seraphin show.com will put a link in there?

I'll tweet it out later on. These are, these are, it was given to me as a gift. Actually Garrett came, not only to help me move, all of my things from New Mexico to Texas, but Then he also brought me gifts, which is a that's kind of guy. He is right. Speaking of a specific axis panels, it's a good tie in just a great dude, but yeah, this is a good. Look at your looks good on camera, too. It's got The Thin Blue Line on their last line strength.

His sub stack. People can go to is, is the last line on sub stack. I believe it's the last line dotsub stack.com and you write something once a week. That's, that's actually very, very good. Have you been reading Garrett stuff at all? Yeah, yeah I do. He's I mean, I'm glad I got my book in before him because he's gay. He's a good writer, he's a serious writer. Plug your book for a minute here, and then I want to cover sort of something, as well. Look before we plug your book.

And folks, the, the book is actually in the the show notes, you can click through it, and Steve's book will talk about it in just, one more second. I will look at getting these shows and we had another vote here from Jenny Chang about about getting this shirt in the store. So Garrett may be amused. That people want to see this and where it's actually super comfortable to. This is a medium, it's a schmedium for me. I should wear a large but I'm wearing.

What does that? That True Fit classics? See, I keep seeing over and over again with like, they're, like you're not fat. You have a crappy shirt or whatever it is. Yes, exactly. I'm like, oh yeah, I knew about that for a long time. You got to wear something that's tied across the chest and kind of loose from the belly. So you can see taper, man. It's so I can carry a gun for me. I want the loose in the belly so I don't.

So I don't print all the time. This this last little piece I want to bring up here because I think this actually is related to substitute back. I think it's related to your book. This says it's from our friends over at Daily wire. This is Ryan said reporting on it as of today. No. As of yesterday it says Elon We released a statement about Tucker Carlson's new show on Twitter. We have not signed a deal and if you're watching, you can see they've got a picture of Elon Musk.

He's wearing a silly hat. I sort of Love Ilan but I also don't know if I trust him but who cares end of the day? He's doing things that are I think a net-net good for the American people he said that Tucker show will be subject to community notes, like anything else that's on Twitter which is actually really funny. But what we did see was Tucker Carlson got out and said that you know, that we are in a world. World that is full of lies.

There are only a few places where you can speak the truth. I'm gonna bring us back up here and that they're going to do a show and they're going to do the show that they've always done elect Twitter, you know, is a great place to move things around and more importantly, it's a place where free speech is now finally tolerated. And, you know, when you've got his audience on, Fox was a couple of million, it was like three million his audience on on Twitter is 6.9 million.

He has the potential of actually reaching more people through Twitter because there's plenty of people who don't have Fox, like, I don't have access to Fox. I don't know if you do or not on a regular basis, I know.

So it's it, it opens them up to a bigger space and it's kind of amazing that we're in a place where places like sub stack places like Twitter are opened up and it does provide a unique opportunity to shed more light and places that were never there before any kind of concerns or thoughts about Tucker. Taking a show on to the into the Twitter space.

I'm think it's good. I mean, I think it'd take you just think it's like anybody it's like you was like me it's like anybody that want has a message and there's an audience for that message. I think that Twitter's probably going to be a good for them to put it out there. Hopefully, you know, he doesn't have the same sensors that, that

I have. But I think my entire experience since becoming a little more public person is, I didn't realize how narrowcasting worked even within, you know, you would think all conservative D, our liberal media, you would think, oh, that's that's Fox News. That means Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly and but then I've been introduced and I know you've been introduced you all these shows that are out there that have sizeable audiences and devoted audiences.

Yep. And they don't want to talk to those people and who I didn't even know existed, so I give it a lot too. When people come to me and say, well, I've seen your name before, but I don't know your story, right? And I think that that's just shows how many people are out there and how the Annette can be just this tool for look for good for information and and provide opportunity for to share as to as many people as possible. Which is why a lot of times I feel like I'm a broken record.

I'm telling the same story, but a lot of people haven't heard of yet, right? It's a new to somebody else. I meant I saw somebody that Chad mentioned earlier. Sorry, I didn't see what name it was, but they were asking. Where can we find people? Like Tracy beans, you could find Tracy beans at uncovered DC.com. You can find their their Rumble Channel uncovered DC and she she promotes our Channel and I'm happy to promote hers. The dark. To light podcast is an hour earlier than ours.

I think it starts at 8:30 eastern time. We come on at 9:30 eastern time. So end of the day, you're correct. I do think it's really amazing. How many different audiences we have out there. How many different access points there are to share this kind of information and what a wild time to. We keep repeating the same story but it is new to somebody and I continually meet people. And so, here's a great example, I sat on the plane flying back from doing the Tim cast show.

First of all, my story was new to them in a lot of ways and The guy that I sat next to Sheamus who is a, you know, an about Catholic had no idea that I was the guy.

He like, he didn't know, he was sitting next to the guy that revealed the radical traditionalist Catholic memo and he was really excited about it. So we're gonna do a podcast and I'm excited to do that with him, but moreover, it's just amazing that people don't have that background because as you mentioned, it's a very narrow set of things. We all have very limited bandwidth for this, kind of

stuff. And so, the more that we can get in front of more audiences in, in this way, is it's, it does feel like we're repetitive, but I'm happy to be repetitive in that sort of space. See if it opens up and shares, more truth with people that need it. A great man. And I think the more have we been able to tell our stories to better it yet. So, I kind of feel bad about people that heard it early on because, you know, this, this bad boy has been added to down.

I think the the FBI would say that we use. Good words. Now we use for Morgan, that's good. Good job back. Yes, I think you're correct. We're getting better and better at all right. So speaking of good words, let's talk about your book. Let's let people know where they can, find it where they can, where they can buy it, and what they can expect in that book. Yeah, it's Amazon on presale right now, true blue, my journey from Beat cop to suspended.

FBI whistleblower if you hate Jeff Bezos Barnes & Noble has available and you can buy it there. It just sort of is the first half is sort of my background.

Some really good cop stories that are edited down that I've told a million times but I think are good to share good FBI stories, some of the good work that is that was done when I was there and then get into the Gretchen Whitmer case that I had an involvement with The whistle blowing, I did with January 6th and and then the Fallout as a result of that.

And interestingly enough, when I heard two and a half weeks ago from the FBI, Those portions were everything they wanted redacted from the book, which is how much it was. Tell people, how much they actually wanted to redact. I think it's so amazing and, and obviously, that was one of your most popular tweets that you've put out. Maybe share that people get a sense of it. Yeah, they sent a PDF back to me.

That was about 40 pages. And I would say roughly 16 to 18% of the book, they wanted to redact it out, and it was because I have a transcript of my conversation with my executive management, and my whistleblower complaint, and then the width of Whitmer stuff. Now, I look, I push back. The Whitmer case is adjudicated, there's no, I'm not compromising an ongoing investigations, right? My whistle blower. Common complaint is public was made public by Senator Johnson and Grassley?

It's In the public sphere, Ryan Riley can read it anytime he wants. And the I think then it goes back to the transcript and they FBI doesn't want to be mocked.

We talked about that. The worst thing that they can suffer is ridicule, and the things that were said to me, and that meeting, which I've talked about where they said, my duty was to the FBI, not the Constitution, and they talked about, you know, who I was jeopardizing, my career on this and, and that police officers were killed on January 6, which

is just factually inaccurate. I think it just Just shows the FBI in a pretty negative light and they don't want that to come out and I'm not going to reject any of it. It's not National Security secrets and I think radical transparency is the only way if there's any hope at all the FBI is going to be pulled back from the brink. They need to just are all the dirty laundry because sunlight is the best disinfectant. It certainly is be can't sell up. I don't know who be.

I don't know if I'm saying that right but do be. Can't sell a 0-60. A task in the chat. Why don't we sell the birch? Add the book to wrecked on the merch site. I'd rather buy direct from Steve. Is that a, is that a feasible possibility or is the? I think I could, I might be able to get like a bulk and buy them at a discount and then we could sell them. Again, off the merch site, I have to ask the publisher about it. I do know that they do bulk orders for groups.

I don't know if there's a discount, they'll have to dig into it, but that will be, this will be a training Scara guess for my, for my first book, maybe if there's a subsequent one, I'll set up the real Steve friend Book.com, and everybody can get autographed copies. Yeah, I like that idea. All right, so bear with us as we kind of have the growing pains and either of us planned on being in this space, I didn't plan on hosting a podcast on a daily basis.

I know you didn't plan on doing the interviews or writing a book about your experiences at this sort of venture but we're all called to do something and and as we had mentioned earlier, I think God has a plan which is quite funny that that's what we're talking about in this space. Because if you told me 20 years ago, that I'd be talking about God's plan in my life, I would have told you that you're a lunatic. I was just like everybody else

in the world. I've come and gone away from these things but more and more, I'm getting drawn to it and I do think it's necessary for a world so you can agree with me or disagree with me. I don't mind about that. By all means, put your thoughts in the comments. You want to write some, some hatred about religion. I don't mind it but I don't agree with you. I do want to tell people, we really appreciate. We went a little bit over on our time.

I think it's worth always having Steve on for as long as he'll want to be with us. So I'm gonna do a quick read here. If you did like what you're hearing, you can always leave us. Five star review on Apple. There's a link in the description in the show notes and with the this one that's going to come from asked for nickname, but it was taken question, mark.
