Mamdani Doubles Down on Anti-Trump Rhetoric: ‘I Believe Everything I’ve Said in the Past’

/

New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani said Sunday that he stands by past statements in which he referred to President Donald Trump as a “fascist,” reiterating the remark during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Mamdani’s comments came after he and President Trump met in the Oval Office last week.

During the interview, host Kristen Welker referenced the joint press conference Mamdani held with the president.

Welker noted that a reporter had asked Mamdani whether he believed President Trump was a fascist, a characterization Mamdani had used previously.

Welker said Mamdani began to answer before President Trump interjected, telling him, “That’s okay. You can just say yes. It’s easier than explaining it.”

Welker then asked Mamdani directly, “So, Mr. Mayor-Elect, just to be very clear, do you think that President Trump is a fascist?”

Mamdani replied, “And after President Trump said that, I said, ‘yes.’”

Welker followed up. “So you do?”

Mamdani said, “That’s something that I’ve said in the past, I say it today. And I think what I appreciated about the conversation that I had with the president was that we were not shy about the places of disagreement about the politics that has brought us to this moment. And we also wanted to focus on what it could look like to deliver on a shared analysis of an affordability crisis for New Yorkers.”

Welker also asked Mamdani about earlier comments in which he said President Trump engaged in an “attack on our democracy” and referred to him as a “despot.”

She asked whether he still believed that President Trump is a threat to democracy.

Mamdani answered, “Everything that I’ve said in the past, I continue to believe.”

The interview marked Mamdani’s first extended national appearance following his Oval Office meeting with President Trump.

Mamdani, who will take office as mayor of New York City in January, has previously criticized the president on multiple fronts, including his approach to governance and his handling of national political disputes.

During the NBC interview, he did not retract or revise any of those earlier statements.

Mamdani said the meeting with President Trump included areas of discussion where the two disagreed, along with areas where both focused on issues affecting New York City residents.

He said the conversation included discussion of affordability challenges facing the city.

President Trump, who answered several questions alongside Mamdani during the press conference, did not revisit the subject during the NBC segment.

The exchange on “Meet the Press” centered on Mamdani’s past remarks and whether he intended to amend or clarify them following his meeting with the president. Mamdani said his views were unchanged.

Eric Swalwell Pushes a Wild Telephone Voting Plan to ‘Max Out Democracy’

/

Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell said Saturday that he wants Californians to be able to vote by phone, outlining the proposal during an appearance on CNN as part of his newly announced campaign for governor.

Swalwell entered the race Thursday during an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” joining a field that includes former Rep. Katie Porter and former Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra.

Speaking with “The Story Is” host Elex Michaelson, Swalwell said he intends to “modernize” state government if elected.

“I want us to be able to vote by phone. I think every California— ” he began, before Michaelson asked, “Vote by phone?”

“Vote by phone, yeah. If we can do our taxes … make our health care appointments, you know, make, essentially your — do your banking online,” Swalwell said.

“You should be able to vote by phone. Make it safe, make it secure. But it’s actually already happening all over the United States. I want us to be a blue state that doesn’t do just a little bit better than like Georgia or Alabama when it comes to like voting access, I want us to max out democracy.”

Swalwell outlined additional changes to in-person voting. He said counties should face penalties when voting lines exceed a set limit.

“As it relates to democracy, if you wait in line for 30 minutes or more, if you do want to vote in person, I think you should fine every county for every minute that a person has to wait longer,” he said.

“We have to be better, not just a little bit better than the other states.”

Swalwell’s comments come as he launches his gubernatorial bid after serving multiple terms in the U.S. House.

His candidacy places him among several prominent California Democrats seeking the governorship.

Swalwell has faced scrutiny in the past over his interactions with Christine Fang, who reportedly worked with the Ministry of State Security of the People’s Republic of China.

Fang was said to have developed ties with several local and national political figures. Swalwell has denied any wrongdoing in his relationship with Fang.

On Jan. 24, 2023, then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy removed him from the House Intelligence Committee, citing the reported relationship.

Organized Anti-ICE Activists Eff Around in Florida, Find Out Real Quick, Dozens Arrested

/

Dozens of protesters were arrested Saturday after blocking the entrance to the Krome Detention Center in Miami-Dade County during a demonstration organized by the Sunrise Movement.

The protest took place near the Alligator Alcatraz site in Florida and targeted the Trump administration’s immigration policies.

Protesters associated with the Sunrise Movement blocked the facility’s gate while holding a banner reading “abolish ICE” and wearing shirts that said “ICE kidnapped my neighbor.”

The group said online that 30 young people were arrested during the demonstration.

“ICE is a criminal organization that is terrifying everyday people on behalf of fascist billionaires. They have no right to kidnap our neighbors, and it’s time for each of us to stand up to their intimidation tactics. Let’s shut it down,” the Sunrise Movement said in a social media post.

The organization called for all ICE facilities to be shut down, for the government to “bring our neighbors home,” and for the agency to be abolished.

A video posted by the group showed one woman being handcuffed.

She told the camera she was being arrested for “peacefully protesting the horrible treatment of human beings by ICE agents,” before an officer responded, “It’s called obstruction. Obstruction of justice.”

NBC 6 South Florida reported that Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office deputies responded after protesters blocked the main gate and declined repeated requests to move.

According to officials, the group ignored multiple orders to disperse and was arrested for trespassing.

The sheriff’s office said it supports peaceful expression but emphasized that protests cannot interfere with safety or block access to critical facilities.

The protest follows other anti-ICE demonstrations taking place across the country as the Trump administration continues deportation operations.

The administration has focused primarily on the arrests of criminal illegal immigrants. The Department of Homeland Security has highlighted arrests involving individuals convicted of crimes including murder, rape, drug trafficking, and child sex offenses.

“Every day, the brave men and women of ICE put their lives on the line to remove the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens from American streets. Just yesterday, ICE arrested murderers, pedophiles, rapists, and drug traffickers,” Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement last week.

“Secretary Noem is delivering on the President’s mandate from the American people to remove criminal illegal aliens—many let in by the previous administration—from our country.”

The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office said those arrested during Saturday’s demonstration were taken into custody without further incident.

Authorities said access to the Krome facility was restored after the protesters were removed from the entrance.

Missouri Teacher Sentenced to 10 Years After Paying Students To Have Sex with Her

/

A Missouri woman who worked as a substitute teacher in the Dixon R-I School District was sentenced Wednesday to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty to multiple charges connected to sexual conduct involving students.

The case followed a yearlong investigation into allegations that she paid underage students for sex and provided them with alcohol and drugs.

Carissa Smith, 31, was arrested on Nov. 12, 2024, and initially indicted on charges that included two counts of sexual trafficking of a child under the age of 18, nine counts of statutory rape, two counts of statutory sodomy, three counts of sexual contact with a student, and one count of patronizing prostitution from a victim 14 years and younger.

Investigators said the incidents occurred between August 2023 and September 2024.

According to the Pulaski County Sheriff’s Office, multiple victims reported that Smith offered “money, marijuana and/or alcohol to students in return for sex or to allow her to perform oral sex.”

Smith began working regularly as a substitute teacher at Dixon Middle School in August 2022 and later worked at Dixon High School until her resignation in August 2024.

A probable cause statement said Smith paid one victim at least $100 to engage in sexual activity with her.

Authorities also reported that Smith urged one minor not to disclose their encounters.

Court documents reviewed by USA Today stated that Smith involved her husband by telling him that a student possessed a compromising video and was blackmailing her.

The husband allegedly threatened more than one minor with a baseball bat.

An affidavit cited by People magazine said Smith’s brother-in-law caught her in bed with an underage student after hearing a rumor about a video circulating in the community that allegedly showed Smith performing a sexual act with a student.

Victims told investigators that sexual encounters occurred at Smith’s home as well as other locations, including roadside areas.

One day after Smith’s arrest, Dixon R-I School District Superintendent Travis Bohrer informed parents that the district had received a report earlier in the year from at least one student regarding possible misconduct by Smith and had notified authorities.

Bohrer said, “This is very disturbing and distressing information for everyone in our school community.”

Smith was later arrested again in September while out on bond.

According to the Pulaski County Sheriff’s Office, she was charged with tampering with a witness after court documents indicated she was found at the home of one of her victims, violating court orders.

Her bond, previously set at $250,000, was revoked on Sept. 10.

Prosecuting attorney Jeffrey Thomas said, “The defendant was ordered to have no contact with any victim in this case. The defendant has failed to follow a course of good conduct.”

Smith pleaded guilty on Sept. 17 to lesser charges: two counts of sexual contact with a student and one count of first degree endangering the welfare of a child/sexual conduct, according to KRCG-TV.

She faced a possible sentence of up to 12 years.

KRCG-TV reported that Smith received a 10-year prison sentence on Wednesday.

CNN Smackdown: Jennings Takes Swisher to Task on Hunter Biden Laptop Truth

/

CNN commentator Scott Jennings confronted journalist Kara Swisher on Thursday, November 20, 2025, over her assertion that lying to the American public about Hunter Biden’s laptop was merely “politics.”

The exchange highlighted ongoing debates about the handling of the story when it first broke in October 2020 by the New York Post.

The New York Post’s report detailed contents of a laptop purportedly belonging to Hunter Biden, which included over 10,000 photos and documents.

These materials allegedly showed Hunter Biden with prostitutes, passed out with a crack pipe, and other compromising situations. At the time, social media platforms Facebook and Twitter restricted the story’s spread.

A letter signed by 50 former government officials claimed the laptop’s contents were Russian disinformation.

National Public Radio (NPR) also chose not to cover the story, citing it as a distraction.Jennings argued against Swisher’s perspective during the broadcast.

“The story was true,” he said.

“There wasn’t really any dispute of that, other than from these 50 people who come from government, who are in and out of government when Democrats are in power.”

Swisher interjected, saying, “That’s politics to me, Scott. You’re not naive. They were making their case just like you would say Trump just did with whatever issue he has.”

Jennings countered, “Well, I don’t agree that it is a simple matter of making your case. When you use your government title and your intelligence bona fides and you use all of your credentials to flat-out lie to the American people. They didn’t know that that was a political argument, but they were saying, ‘This is Russian disinformation. What you’re reading is directly out of the Kremlin. It was one of the biggest lies that was told to try to get Joe Biden over the finish line.”

The controversy surrounding the laptop emerged as a key issue during the 2020 presidential election, with critics suggesting the suppression was designed to protect Joe Biden’s campaign.

Despite the initial denials, evidence later confirmed the laptop’s authenticity.

Then-NPR managing editor Terence Samuel explained the network’s decision, stating, “We don’t want to waste our time on stories that are not really stories, and we don’t want to waste the listeners’ and readers’ time on stories that are just pure distractions.”

He added, “And quite frankly, that’s where we ended up, this was … a politically driven event, and we decided to treat it that way.”

The Biden-Harris administration’s response evolved over time.

In December 2024, President Joe Biden pardoned his son for drug and gun offenses, a move that reignited discussions about the laptop’s contents.

Democrats had maintained for years that the story was unfounded, despite growing evidence to the contrary.

The pardon covered a range of charges related to Hunter Biden’s personal conduct, which had been documented in part by the laptop data.

The confrontation between Jennings and Swisher aired on CNN, drawing attention to the differing narratives around the laptop story.

Jennings emphasized the use of government credentials to mislead the public, while Swisher framed it as a standard political tactic.

California Sheriff Says State’s Elections Are ‘Completely Rigged’ to Keep Dems in Power

California Sheriff Says State’s Elections Are ‘Completely Rigged’ to Keep Dems in Power

/

Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, who is seeking the Republican nomination for governor of California, said during an interview with Fox News’ Lara Trump that the state’s election system is “completely rigged” to maintain Democratic control.

Bianco made the comments as he criticized recent statewide changes to congressional districts approved under Proposition 50.

“Our election process has been rigged to keep the Democrat Party in power, honestly, since the 60s. And every 20 years, people get so fed up with it, they elect a Republican governor. And that’s where we are right now,” Bianco said.

Proposition 50, introduced by Governor Gavin Newsom, drew sharp criticism from Republicans after voters approved the measure.

The plan redraws five congressional seats currently held by Republicans. National Democratic groups and senior party figures, including former President Barack Obama, publicly backed the measure during the campaign.

Republicans have argued that the new maps differ significantly from those created by the state’s independent redistricting commission, which voters approved in an earlier reform effort.

Under the commission’s maps, Republicans controlled 17 percent of California’s congressional districts even though 40 percent of voters supported President Donald Trump in the election.

Under new maps in Texas — which Newsom said Proposition 50 was intended to counter — Democrats will control 21 percent of congressional seats after receiving 42 percent of the vote.

Bianco said the issue extends beyond political strategy.

“The gerrymandering, districting, really, for me, being at the head of law enforcement, the leader of law enforcement, the Constitution and the constitutional rights of Californians actually matter. And our current government, they despise both the state constitution and the federal constitution,” he told Fox News.

“So this gerrymandering of this election to keep them in power, it made no sense. We know that there was a lot of dishonesty in the advertising. I think it’s going to backfire on what they did here because it’s one more nail in the coffin of we’re tired of being lied to.”

Bianco enters the race at a time when Republicans face long odds in a state dominated by Democrats.

However, new polling suggests that voter concerns about cost of living, homelessness, and other issues could make the race more competitive than in previous cycles.

A UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies poll released earlier this month showed Rep. Katie Porter, considered the Democratic frontrunner early in the race, losing support following several widely reported public outbursts and allegations of verbal mistreatment of staff.

The poll indicated that Porter now trails Bianco, though the survey also showed that nearly half of California voters have not yet chosen a candidate.

“She’s the leading Democrat among the various ones that are in there right now,” said poll director Mark DiCamillo.

“But it’s because nobody really on the Democratic side has really jumped out of the pack. It’s kind of a political vacuum at the moment.”

Trump Reposts Lara Logan’s ‘STOLEN ELECTIONS’ Report, Urges Immediate Federal Crackdown

President Donald Trump on Sunday urged his administration to intensify efforts against election fraud, stating that “all of our energy and might” must be directed toward the issue.

His comments followed his reposting of an episode of investigative reporter Lara Logan’s podcast, which discussed election fraud, foreign influence operations, and matters involving U.S. intelligence agencies.

Trump wrote, “We must focus all of our energy and might on ELECTION FRAUD!!”

The call comes amid recent attention on allegations involving Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes and other Democratic attorneys general.

The allegations, described in a whistleblower memo filed by former Trump attorney Christina Bobb, claim that the Democratic Attorneys General Association paid $200,000 to Mayes in exchange for granting prosecutorial influence to the nonprofit States United Democracy Center.

Bobb submitted the memo to the Department of Justice in June.

 

Bobb told The Gateway Pundit that the filing is “pretty radioactive” and questioned whether the Department of Justice “wants to take this up.”

Freshman Rep. Abe Hamadeh of Arizona sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi last week requesting a formal Department of Justice investigation into the allegations.

Hamadeh said he intends to continue pressing for action. “I have made my position very clear to the top officials at the White House that I’m going to keep pursuing this,” he said.

“Now, we have to see action.”

Hamadeh discussed his own 2022 election during the interview and said it was stolen, referencing the race that led to the installation of the current Arizona attorney general.

He called on the Department of Justice to “use every single tool” to investigate prosecutors he described as leftwing and to investigate elections in states across the country.

The allegations involving Mayes and the Democratic Attorneys General Association are now under review by Republican officeholders seeking federal involvement.

Supporters of an investigation have said the timeline for addressing election matters is narrowing before the 2026 election cycle.

Logan’s podcast episode also featured former CIA operations officer Gary Bernstein and author Paul Pezzullo in a discussion about foreign influence, intelligence matters, and claims of election-related activity.

Senate Majority Whip Calls Out Dems ‘Politics of Pain’ Strategy to Undermine Trump

/

Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso appeared on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” to discuss recent public statements from several Democratic officials urging U.S. military personnel to refuse what they described as illegal orders.

The remarks, some made by former intelligence officials, were directed at the Trump administration’s use of troops, primarily National Guard units, in efforts to address crime in multiple cities.

Host Maria Bartiromo asked Barrasso, “What is your reaction to your colleagues on the left, telling U.S. military members to ignore President Trump’s directive?”

Barrasso responded, “Well, what they’re doing is wrong, and I believe it’s dangerous. Maria, they have no right to tell members of the military to disobey — we’re talking about active duty military — to disobey orders from their commanding officers. That’s the way the military works. And it’s up to the Supreme Court to decide what’s constitutional, not six Democrats on social media. I think the president is absolutely right to be requiring and talking about legal responsibility and then being held accountable. These are the same Democrats who have been doing everything they can for the last ten months to undermine President Trump, undermine the Republican party and our efforts, every one of them voted to raise taxes by $4 trillion, every one of them voted for the shutdown, and kept our country shut down and caused significant pain to the American people.”

The exchange followed public comments from multiple Democrats, including Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan, who previously worked for the CIA.

Slotkin said during an appearance on ABC News that service members have an obligation to refuse unlawful orders, a principle taught in military training.

Slotkin also referenced historical examples and cultural references during her discussion.

She acknowledged that the president had not issued any illegal orders.

The remarks from Democratic members of Congress were framed around the administration’s deployment of troops to assist with law enforcement-related operations.

The statements drew responses from Republican lawmakers who questioned the implications of advising service members on how to interpret orders.

Concerns raised in the discussion included the potential effect of publicly encouraging troops to determine on their own whether an order is lawful.

The issue touched on the process by which the legality of military orders is evaluated, including the role of courts and the military chain of command.

Barrasso emphasized that constitutional questions are decided through the judicial system and not by individual lawmakers making public declarations.

He tied the comments to broader partisan disputes over the past several months, including legislative actions on taxes and federal spending.

The topic continues to draw discussion from both parties as debates over the appropriate use of federal troops, the legal framework governing military orders, and public commentary from elected officials remain active in Washington.

Ex-CIA Officer Says Dem Senator Slotkin Ran ‘Propaganda Op’ Aimed at FBI and Military

Ex-CIA Officer Says Dem Senator Slotkin Ran ‘Propaganda Op’ Aimed at FBI and Military

/

A recent video released by Democratic Rep. Elissa Slotkin is drawing strong criticism after former CIA operations officer Bryan Dean Wright and Fox News host Jesse Watters described it as a coordinated propaganda effort directed at members of the FBI, CIA, and U.S. military.

The segment aired on Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime,” where the two discussed the message of the video and the implications for its intended audience.

Watters opened the discussion by asking, “Host of the Wright Report podcast, all right, Brian, these Democrats is this seditious what they’re doing,” prompting Wright to explain why he viewed the video as deliberate and calculated.

Wright said, “It is. And look, we need to be very, very clear about Slotkin and who she is, so she knew what she was doing when she put that together. As a former CIA operations officer, my job was to go out in the field and collect the Intel conduct the operation. Her job as an analyst was to figure out whether or not things like propaganda operations were successful, if they were effective.”

He said Slotkin’s background provided her with the skills needed to structure a targeted messaging campaign.

Wright said, “So she has seen her fair share of propaganda operations, and she knows how to pull those off and make them effective. So if you think about it through that lens, if you watch the video again, one of the first things that she and the others do is they establish credibility and authority. They talk about who they are, working for the CIA and working for the military.”

Wright outlined what he said were multiple stages of the messaging campaign.

He described the next stage by saying, “They then move into the next phase of the propaganda message, which is, there’s a crisis. They create a crisis for the listeners inside the FBI and the CIA and the military. And they say that there is a threat, not just abroad, like we might face with face with China or Russia or al Qaeda, but inside of the country, the threat is here. Who’s that threat? Donald Trump.”

He said the video then introduced a call to action.

“Then they provide the solution as part of their propaganda campaign, which is, rise up, say no,” Wright said.

He pointed to what he described as subtle messaging designed to create plausible deniability while still urging action.

“Now, key parts of propaganda campaigns, as you say, a little bit of face saving measure, something a little wink, a little nudge, to just give somebody a little bit of a fig leaf, which is but make your opposition towards an unlawful order, right? So that’s the fig leaf.”

Wright continued by saying Slotkin knew the impact of the structure she used.

“The point is, Miss Slotkin knew exactly what she was putting together with her little propaganda video. Now, whether the others were also seditious with her. I don’t know, but she knew, because she and I both work the agency. We both know propaganda ops, and that’s exactly what her video was all about.”

Watters responded to Wright’s description by saying, “So they’re saying, you know, I’m not saying that they need to, like, rise up against the Commander in Chief. All we’re saying is, I’m saying Don’t disobey an illegal order.”

Wright said that framing is intentional.

“Yeah, well, that’s exactly what a CIA officer who was putting their propaganda operation would do if you’re going to put a message out into the world, it’s not going to openly call for a seditious or an unlawful order. You’re going to see that information and then give it a little bit of a wink and a nudge, which is precisely what Slotkin did here,” he said.

“So the cover, the disguise, of course, was to say, Oh, it’s just unlawful orders that we need to know about. The game here, of course, is that there was no unlawful order, nor has there been.”

Watters later asked Wright, “Do you predict there’s gonna be additional subversive operations? Is this like just the beginning?”

Wright referenced a past statement from Senate leadership.

“Oh, yeah. 2017 Chuck Schumer said, didn’t he on MSNBC, the US intel community has six ways from Sunday getting back at you. So Schumer and others on Capitol Hill have known this. The Democrat Party has known this and versus condemn it. What they’re doing 10 years ago was celebrate it because it was against Donald Trump, and now they got one of their own Miss lock it. So she’s continuing the same thing that Schumer highlighted about 10 years ago. So it really is a seditious movement.”

Watters closed the segment by saying, “Yeah, we’ll be all over it. It’s it’s nasty, but we caught him. Great to see you. Have a great weekend.”

‘The CIA is Still Undermining Trump in a Big Way’: General Mike Flynn

/

Grant Stinchfield and retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn discussed concerns about internal resistance within the U.S. intelligence community during an interview, focusing on allegations that certain intelligence officials are working to undermine the Trump administration.

Flynn said he believes elements within the intelligence community, including the CIA, are withholding information and influencing national security decisions.

Stinchfield began by asking about the intent behind recent actions attributed to intelligence officials.

“What do you think their goal was? What are they concerned? Who are they actually talking to inside this community? Are they trying to change behavior of some kind?” he asked.

Flynn responded that the issue involves personnel inside the executive branch.

“Yeah, this is important, Grant. This is really important here, folks, because there are elements inside of the administration, inside of the executive branch of the administration, principally in the United States, intelligence community,” he said.

“And I know this factually because we’ve caught a bunch of them, and we’ve got whistleblowers out on some of them. But these are, this is the intelligence community.”

Flynn referenced the appearance of a former CIA officer in a recent public statement and said it raised questions for him.

“When I saw the CIA, former CIA officer, I was like, huh, this is interesting,” he said.

Flynn added that he believes Tulsi Gabbard and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth are dealing with internal pressures.

“They’re the ones responsible for basically running the largest part of the intelligence community,” he said.

He named the CIA and the Department of War as key components.

“It’s the CIA that continue to me, and I’m right on the record here, buddy, the CIA and elements in the in the US intelligence community are still undermining this administration in a big, big way.”

Flynn said he does not believe the president is receiving a complete picture of national security issues.

“I don’t think that the President of the United States is getting fully informed as to what is actually going on around the world and right here at home,” he said.

He stated that leadership officials can inform the president, but may not have full information themselves.

Flynn said the statements made by the former military and intelligence officials align with what he described as political messaging.

“This is clearly, clearly, this is a sort of parroting of what it is that the that the left wants to, you know, sort of propagandize across the American society here,” he said.

Stinchfield drew a comparison to the letter issued by former intelligence officials ahead of the 2020 election.

“Yeah, it’s interesting. When you bring up this connection. It almost reminds me of the 51 spies letter that tried to debunk the Hunter Biden laptop, right?” he said.

“They get a whole bunch of people, and they spew this nonsense, and they get the media to try to pick up on it. This is almost the same operation, only it’s on video, not a letter, last word, General.”

Flynn said he believes the situation reflects a larger problem within the intelligence community.

“I do think that there’s a connection here,” he said.

“I don’t think that this is universal in our in our military.”

Flynn said he is concerned that some actions are tied to intelligence officials.

“I actually think that this is coming out of the US intelligence community,” he said.

“And to me, this is where Tulsi Gabbard really has her hands full, because I think she’s doing all that she can, but she’s being undermined. Trust me.”

Stinchfield thanked Flynn for appearing.

“Well, I know for a fact that people are listening to you and your assessment of all of this, and so I’m grateful for that,” he said.

“I’m grateful for you coming on the program as always, General, and it’s good to see you, my friend. Thank you.”

Flynn replied, “Absolutely grant. Thank you.”

Stinchfield closed the segment by summarizing the concerns raised.

“Absolutely fascinating stuff, when you think about what he’s talking about there, that the President may not be getting the information he needs to make national security decisions,” he said.

“And then you look at the connection that could these, these congressmen, members of Congress, be connected to a subversion inside the intelligence community, not just the intel community. When you talk about sedition, I don’t know how else to describe it. President Trump is spot on.”
