Bang [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh [Music] what's up fools today is what is today 95 2024 it is 1 30 a.m. eastern time we're getting started later and later recently uh been trying to get started earlier and earlier but yeah we're getting started later and later as of late most of today most of the time was taken up making that thumbnail that was uh my main priority was yeah getting the thumbnail done so had to had to be done had to be had to have that sick thumbnail so it's a paradox yeah I guess suppose maybe I don't know how's everybody doing today you guys talking about what you had for lunch today everybody take a second hit the Thumbs Up Button appreciate you joining us uh if you haven't already make sure you join the Discord link is in the description um and then yeah you can follow me on all of my social media accounts those links are also in the description so uh yeah the main story if you saw the thumbnail is that there were a bunch of right wiers caught putting out Russian misinformation and this is something that I've talked about for a while uh if you watched my documentary on Candace Owens on my other channel terminally online media you know that there's a portion of it where we go over the Russian misinformation that she was spreading during the Russia Ukraine war and she continues to spread that stuff and it it is wild some of the stuff that she sets where she's talking about how anti-christian Ukraine is when all they did was like get rid of one uh type of church and uh that ended up combining with uh the Ukrainian version of the same thing because because that type of church was under Russia and was still pushing uh like Russian propaganda through their churches so yeah they just outlawed that type of church and dismantled it within their country but yeah she kept talking about the fact that like Ukraine hated the hated Christians when all they did was just dismantle one type of church and she kept saying they dismantled like all of Christianity they got rid of all of Christianity it's all gone which just wasn't true but Russia it has been caught being like very anti-christian they have literally murdered uh like pastors and um priests and like assassinated them in Ukraine they have um they've done like all sorts of insane things to Christians and a chrisan Christians have been fairly heavily oppressed within Russia yet she defends Russia as this like free place for religion and Ukraine's this horrible place that hates Christianity it's just it's insane um is really dumb but um quman reviewed your Dei talk from yesterday and he said I was right well if you're going to to queman for those sorts of answers then I suppose uh I suppose there's not much use and even trying to uh debunk anything you're saying but you did just run away as soon as I said that I was getting ready to pull you on and uh as I was like getting ready to pull up the [ __ ] sources and everything but you ran so I I moved on to talk to somebody else instead but but well done queman he's the he's the one who really understands this sort of [ __ ] he's uh that's the guy who's done a lot of hiring and worked for big corporations and he's uh it looks like it's somewhat back now um yeah I think let me I'm going to have to like restart everything then if this is already happening I literally dropped off completely and it's not my internet there's my internet's fine right now so um yeah no my upload speeds are great okay no they're going up and down yeah this is strange let me let me try playing this again and if it drops off again yeah I'm just going to have to restart everything this is CNN breaking news and we are following breaking news just into CNN the Biden Administration is expected to accuse Russia of a sustained effort to influence the 2024 election CNN's Evan Perez has more on this exclusive reporting is just coming into CNN Evan what can you tell us well Jim uh this is an effort by the Biden Administration to get ahead of what the Russians are are Alle allegedly doing ahead of this uh 2024 election and so uh you know sources have told Sean lingis and Kylie Atwood Zack Cohen and me that this is really the the most significant effort by the B Administration to sort of call this out we've seen uh Russia today which is now called RT we've seen uh some of their activity that the justice department has called out for instance uh uh they said that there was a Russia Today employee who was running about a thousand social media accounts that were were essentially used to sort of divide Americans try to uh Propel some some of the division that we already see on social media and so what we yeah I mean we've talked about this a bunch before is that the main goal by Russia isn't normally to get a specific candidate to win the election they they might do that as well that might be like part of it is that they would like a c one candidate over the other but that's not their main goal their main goal is to sew division their main goal is to get all of us to be as confused as possible and to make it to where we are all fighting each other and constantly uh at each other's throats which through the 2016 election they were able to put out enough misinformation about like Hillary lying about the FBI lying about the doj lying about like all of these different groups saying that they were caught lying over and over which just wasn't true no other like mainstream uh no other mainstream news outlets were reporting this stuff but they they got enough memes to go viral on social media platforms to where this is a thing that still today tons of Republicans believe and it really affected Republicans overall and like far- leftists those two groups were highly affected by these like misinformation campaigns that were were done by Russia and yes the main goal was just to put out misinformation about both sides to just confuse everybody and to just cause as much division as possible and so today even though we all found out that it was all Mis information even though we all found out that like it was a bunch of fake memes that were being put out nobody knew which ones were and which ones weren't afterwards and they didn't know uh that like oh that one meme that said it was from Russia or sorry that said it was from CNN or said it was from Fox News like you know the thing that they already believed the thing that they were already arguing the thing that they were already talking to people about um they didn't know that that specific thing was Russian misinformation and so there's still people running around still pushing the same talking points that they were before like there's the uh the whole idea about Ukraine right I just put out a video the other day talk going over Tim P pushing the misinformation about like Joe Biden making a deal with Ukraine right that we literally know for a fact that there is a guy who made up the story and he just went and took that clip of Joe Biden clipped it out of context and then just put it out to say oh they're saying Trump made a deal and was doing um what was like uh doing deals that are illegal oh well how about this and he just put out that clip it's been investigated numerous times by like Congress by the FBI by so many people and at each time they've come back and said yeah there was nothing illegal there but Tim p is still pushing that story as though it is it is real as though oh yes he he just played the clip the other day and said yeah here's proof that Joe Biden was uh was lying and and was uh was making deals with ukrainians like he's he's still blatantly pushing misinformation that has been proven to be misinformation yet he just does it anyways he just doesn't uh he doesn't really care all that much and it just seems to have infected right-wing media across the board the Russian disinformation campaigns have been very successful at infecting right-wing news out it's like o like uh uh RT is like a a a right-wing um Channel now that is just like talking about right-wing things and talking about how great Donald Trump is and blah blah blah um the uh and then now yes so we're going to find out that more and more YouTubers are actually caught working with Russia as well we expect today from the Jud from the uh the B Administration uh State Department treasury uh justice department we expect that they're going to call out the Russians for what is a persistent effort that they believe is directed at influencing the 2024 election and voters uh this year they're also going to call out uh a a company called or an organization called the social design agency which uh the justice department and the uh the the the treasury Department has already sanctioned uh for running uh social media accounts uh and websites in Europe so their activity is also going to be called out as part of this now you know so yeah so they're doing this pretty much all over the place now to the day's other top story foreign efforts to interfere with the US presidential election in the press conference this afternoon us attorney general Merrick Garland outlined what he called sophisticated disinformation campaigns undertaken by Russia and other adversaries promoting lies via fake news outlets and real social Med media influencers and Garland issued this warning the Justice Department's message is clear we have no tolerance for attempts by authoritarian regimes to exploit our demograph our democratic system of government we will be relentlessly aggressive in countering and disrupting attempts by Russia and Iran as well as China or any other foreign malign actor to interfere in our elections and undermine our democracy joining us now from the White House is National Security Council spokesman retired rear Admiral John Kirby Admiral Kirby welcome back thanks for joining us thank you so much for having me so these efforts I think it's safe to say are a long way from Russia so yeah so there's a bunch of different stuff uh coming out that we'll get into more in depth the only disinformation is Russia Russia Russia Democrats don't want it known they are the ones trying to exploit our democracy uh so okay so Mark I don't know why why you're making this about like a Democrats or Republicans but are you are you you have like information on this like you have like a I haven't seen it so I'm happy to look at it if you want to send it to me you have like a like evidence showing that like Democrats are working with uh Russian sources correct can you send that to me cuz I would I would love to look at that yeah that would be really um that would be really helpful cuz like it uh so what you're saying here is that like Merck Garland the doj like they are they're lying about all of these people working with Russia and that they are just accusing them of this when really they're the ones doing it right and that they're going to they're going to like take all these people to court and and charge them they have indictments that they're rolling out and that these are all just fake indictments that that they're doing just to just to make it look like the rightwing is doing it and not them that's the idea Mark where'd you go where you at mark huh so there there's a ton of people who always come in and say stuff like that and I I I'm always whoa really that's crazy you must have a lot of evidence to to make a claim like that can I look at it and every time they don't actually have anything and they run away and then they don't come back and I yeah I'm not sure I I'm sure it's very very real and they're just uh they just don't have the time they don't have time to send evidence that's that's lame that evidence is gay intelligence hacking and dumping emails like they did with the DNC back in 2016 just before we dig into some of the specifics today big picture and briefly what does all of this say to you about how Russian election interference has evolved over the years well they've gotten more sophisticated they've gotten more organized and quite frankly they've gotten more more funding uh support right at the top of the Kremlin we we believe Mr Putin is witting of this scheme or these schemes I should say there's more than one uh but they've gotten a lot more clever and unfortunately so this is uh I think the last clip we'll look at of this good afternoon everyone this is the 32-minute press conference Force to respond to a dangerous increase and violent threats against the public servants who administer our elections we did so because countless Americans were enduring terrible threats simply for doing their civic Duty and we did so because threats to election workers constitute threats to our democracy itself in just a few minutes the task force here will meet to discuss its continuing work in advance of the upcoming election but before we begin I want to address the tragic shooting that occurred this morning at a high school in Winder Georgia we are still gathering information but the FBI and ATF are on yeah I thought about getting that to that later but obviously I live in Atlanta Georgia there was another school shooting here uh today but um I think four died in the shooting but I haven't really looked into it and I don't know much about it so might uh might check that out in a little bit scene working with State local and federal Partners I'm devastated for the families who have been affected by this terrible tragedy the justice department stands ready to provide any resources or support that the ler Community needs in the days ahead before I get to the work of the task force I also want to announce two major law enforcement actions that the justice department is taking that are separate from the important work of this task force but our part of our broader effort to protect our elections from unlawful interference of any kind first this morning we unsealed an indictment in the southern district of New York of Constantine Kalashnikov and Elena aasa two Russian based employees oh wait sorry uh I didn't realize Markus in the other chat um okay so he said correct of course you can it's right in front of you this the same dim the disinformation campaign they use the last time with the dossier which was paid for and distributed by the DNC well it's what it wasn't paid for by the DNC it was paid for by by the Clinton campaign and the DNC fined her for doing it so the DNC didn't have anything to do with it the DNC finded Clinton for pushing the uh the steel dossier but that the steel dossier wasn't a huge part of the entire thing the Muller report is the big part like the Muller report wasn't just saying oh steel dossa said it therefore it's true neither did the FBI neither did any of the like um um neither did any of the warrants that they got uh for any of this stuff all of those things they went and confirmed them themselves they don't just use other people's like third-party investigations to go and get warrants or to make claims about things they have to do the investigations themselves so you're just bringing this up as though like they did this like yes there this is something that the Clinton campaign did but that doesn't change anything that doesn't make it disinformation there were still a lot of true things in there RT a Russian State controlled media outlet they are charged with conspiring to commit money wandering and to violate the agents registration act that law enacted nearly a century ago was enacted to ensure that the American people were informed when a foreign power engages in political activities or seeks to influence public discourse the American people are entitled to know when a foreign power is attempting to exploit our country's free exchange of ideas in order to send around its own propaganda the company never disclosed to the I'm sorry and that is what we alleged to happen in this case in the wake of Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 RT which was then known as Russia Today Was dropped by its American Distributors the company ceased its formal operations in the United States and the European Union the UK and Canada banned RT's broadcasting but as RT itself has boasted the government of Russia continued to use RT to direct disinformation and propaganda in the wake of Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine AR's editor-in Chief said the company had built quote an entire Empire of covert projects designed to shape public opinion in Western audiences we alleg that as part of that effort RT and its employees including the defendants implemented a nearly $10 million scheme to fund and direct a ten yeah yeah I do stream late okay so this is the document let me make sure this fits on both streams okay uh so yeah it says United States District Court southern district of New York uh sealed indictment so they they unsealed this made this public today this introduction uh Russia times or sorry Russia Today Formerly Known RT formerly known as Russia Today is a state controlled media Outlet funded and directed by the government of Russia after Russia invaded Ukraine in February of 2022 RT was sanctioned dropped by Distributors and ultimately forced to cease formal operations in the United States Canada and the United or sorry the United Kingdom and the European Union in trying to get my monitor to face me and uh in response RT created in the words of its editorinchief an entire Empire of covert projects designed to shape public opinion in Western audiences one of RT's covert operations or sorry covert projects as described here in is its funding and direction of a Tennessee based online content company us company one so this is kind of how this thing explains these things so it'll say things like uh us company 1 or us Company 2 content creator 1 content Creator too they're not giving us the exact names but based on the information that they give us it becomes pretty obvious what what companies they're talking about what people they're talking about and uh Nigel said ooh so like the Democrats do all the time Jesus y'all stupid why do y'all why do y'all always do the whataboutism why do you why are so many people coming in talking about Democrats this is about Republicans if you if you want to send me a story about Democrats doing it I I might go over that as well but currently this indictment isn't about Democrats this one's about Republicans so um yeah if you again if you want to send it to me there's a link in the description where you can uh go to my Discord and you can send me whatever it is that you're talking about I haven't seen it so just send it on over and and I'll I'll pull it up but uh but yeah I don't I don't I don't know why you guys are so obsessed with [ __ ] Democrats dude it's weird we're we're talking about Republicans right now um so yeah so this is kind of how they talk about them they're not they're not like clear but it becomes obvious what it is uh that they're talking about so um says since publicly launching in or about November 2023 us company 1 has posted nearly 2,000 videos that have garnered more than 16 million views on YouTube alone us company 1 never disclosed to its viewers that it was founded and or sorry funded and directed by Russia times or Russia Today RT uh nor did US company one or its two Founders and principal Executives founder one and founder two register with the attorney general as an agent of foreign Principle as required by law so when they say company one we believe that they're talking about tenant tenant is the the company that they are uh that a lot of these people are working for and so when you look at the thumbnail that I made for today's stream it is uh it is these guys right here who all work for tenant and are all complicit in this but from what I understand and I haven't I haven't gotten this far into it yet but this is just from what I'm told so far uh Lauren Chen and her husband seem to be a lot more complicit than everybody else um from what I understand Warren Chen and her husband are uh people who are like aware that they are taking Russian money to spread Russian misinformation so we'll uh we'll get into that uh this right here is from a a website called wired and they go over a lot of this and kind of break it down and talk about how each one of these influencers is involved what it is that they've done and yeah it just kind of makes it all a lot simpler so it says right-wing influencer Network tenant media allegedly spread Russian disinformation in an unsealed indictment the doj alleges that employees of of state-owned RT contracted for uh contracted for in oversaw the dissemination of Kremlin talking points by popular right-wing influencers including Benny Johnson and Tim P so this is a picture of Benny Johnson right here it says a Tennessee based media Network that produces shows for high-profile right-wing influencers such as Benny Johnson and Timol was largely Ed by Russian State backed News Network RT according to a Federal indictment against two RT employees that the US Department of Justice unsealed on Wednesday the doj claims the US company which wired along with so wired again is the article that we're reading right now uh along with other news outlets was able to identify as tenant media but goes unnamed in the indictment posted hundreds of videos on social media that pushed Kremlin approved talking points with the tagline Fearless voices live here tenant media's Network includes online creators known for their right-wing politics including Johnson P Dave ruin and Lauren Southern in addition to the followings of the Network's individual creators which collectively number in the millions tenant media itself boasts more than 315,000 followers on YouTube and thousands more across Facebook Instagram X and Tik Tok so they're saying that just the tenant YouTube channel just by itself has 315,000 subscribers so yeah there it is 316,000 subscribers here's their uh you know the top of their Channel up here where it has Lauren Southern Benny Johnson I don't know who this guy is I don't know who this guy is and then timle so yeah there's uh Andrew with them and here's all of their uh you know their crazy propaganda videos that they're putting out with laurren Southern on them Tim P Dave ruin so yeah Johnson P Ruben and Southern did not immediately respond to request for comment none are accused of wrongdoing we are disturbed by the allegations in today's indictment Johnson wrote on act referring to himself and his lawyers which make clear that myself and other influencers were victims in this alleged scheme P also released the statement on X saying in part that should these allegations prove true I as well as other personalities and commentators were deceived and are victims Ruben retweeted P's post so while I do believe that they are likely victims in this I do believe that a lot of them are likely not uh not directly involved they may not they they may not have known that there they were being paid by Russians they may not have known that the stories were coming from Russians they may not have known that uh like everything that they were told to do were actually directives coming from the Kremlin through Russian operatives they may not have known any of this stuff it is totally possible that they just didn't know and that they actually are victims to an extent to an extent if you're given stories by tenant and they're saying hey here's the story go put this out if you just unquestioningly take the story and just go put it out and push it to your followers push it to your subscribers without any critical thinking you don't go double check it you don't make sure it's true you don't you don't look it up yourself you just say oh this is the story I'm supposed to push thank you done I still got a problem with you whether or not you're going to be charged for this uh you know for within this indictment is one thing okay fair enough it may not be illegal but anybody who watches these people should lose full respect for them like like there there should be nobody who is Ever willing to watch them again unless you're like Nigel or Mike what if you unless you're one of these people who enjoys being fed you know spoonfed misinformation you want it just shoved down your throat like Donald Trump's dick then fair enough you do your thing if that's you if that's what you like have at it but for any self-respecting human who doesn't want to be lied to who doesn't want to be misled yeah I would uh I would assume that you would I would assume that you would stop watching these people Tom can you give us some examples some examples of what you're going you're going to have to be a lot more clear than that yeah they haven't even mentioned Chen yet Chen is a is a bit more the stories again you're going to have to be a lot more specific I I I I don't know what you're asking for yeah they haven't mentioned Chen yet and from what I understand Chen is uh a lot more uh involved as is her husband uh prosecutor saying the indictment that tenant and its Founders who also go unnamed in the indictment but are right-wing influencer Lauren chin and her husband Liam Donovan oh [ __ ] so tenant Founders are Lauren Chen and her husband wow so when they're talking about the fact that like tenant is in the indictment tenant is being prosecuted tenant is in trouble and its Founders they are talking about Lauren Chen and her husband so uh this uh beautiful Kremlin operative right here is the one that we're talking about this is Lauren Chen she is ready to push the Russian misinformation she is here to do daddy Putin's bidding and so she is in some big trouble she is in some major trouble according to uh corporate records actively concealed the company's links to Russia from the individual creators tenant allegedly received 9.7 million from RT according to the doj of that 8.7 million went to the production companies of three unnamed commentators the indictment Claims One referred to as commentator one the description appears to be of either Johnson or Ruben was allegedly contracted for $400,000 per month for four weekly videos the nearly $10 million tenant Media alleg or allegedly received from R RT represents nearly 90% of funds deposited in the company's account the doj claims the justice department identifies tenant media only as us company 1 but notes in the indictment that the company describes itself as a network of heterodox commentators that focus on Western political and cultural issues that language is identical to the description on tenants media website tenant media is a network of heterodox commentators that focus on Western political and cultural issues wow it is there that's wild interesting okay it could be them who knows maybe it is let's see um where was I oh yeah tenant and Chen did not immediately respond to request for comment the Russian RT employees indicted by the US uh okay I'm going to give this my best shot here is uh cotin centine costantine Kalashnikov Kalashnikov and Elena afan Sia I mean look maybe they didn't know that they were Russian you know maybe when maybe it's possible that Lauren Chen met Constantine kosnov and thought he's probably just a regular American guy I I didn't know that he was Russian at all I I had no idea I'm I'm actually surprised to find out that this has anything to do with Russia I was uh I feel misled so those two names allegedly worked for uh with tenant media to produce hundreds of videos that support Russia's aims they are charged with conspiracy to violate the foreign agents uh registration act and conspiracy to commit money laundering for the alleged work with tenant media and Associated activities associated activities that's bad there is so much room for Associated activities posing his outside video editors the pair were allegedly intimately involved in tenant media's operations Kalashnikov for example monitored tenant media's internal Communications and edited content published by the company the indictment claims aan afana Sia who allegedly used the fake persona is Helena sudra and Victoria pesty oh okay so they didn't okay they didn't get their real names okay while working with tenant media is said to have edited posted and directed The posting by tenant media and provided day-to-day direction to the company's staff a AA aana Seas is there a better is there like a short version of this can I I'm just going to call her Sea from now on or afana yeah I think aana works Alana's work with tenant media allegedly included instructing the company to post pro-russian viewpoints such as pushing a conspiracy theory that Ukraine and us were responsible for a March terrorist attack at the music venue in Moscow the indictment claims that the founders were aware they were working with Russian Nationals and did not register with the US attorney general as an agent of a foreign principal as required by law so yeah so this right here is just saying that other countries are not allowed to meddle in foreign elections or for like or sorry foreign companies and foreign governments are not allowed to meddle in our elections or in our politics so the you like they when when they say they didn't register like they're supposed to register these things so a lots of times you'll hear a lot of people complaining about things with uh Israel and that like companies aren't allowed to speak out against uh other companies working with Israel they're not allowed to boycott Israeli companies or boycott uh anybody working with the Israel government within the United States and and this is a thing that like you'll hear right-wingers complain about all the time saying that this is like you know the Jews getting into our country and making laws against criticizing Jews and stuff like that it's actually not what it is actually if you go look at the laws the mic is popping [ __ ] I my Dad was supposed to come on today obviously he's not here we had to cancel I moved everything around so I had like uh an whole other setup over on the other side of the room and I had to get everything to go into my uh my mic [Music] setup I I don't know why I was talking like you guys could hear the stuff that I was saying my Dad was supposed to come on today obviously he's not here we rescheduled for tomorrow so he's supposed to be here tomorrow but um because he was supposed to come on today I G got a whole new setup over on the other side of the studio so that when he comes we have like multiple mics set up multiple cameras set up and everything's like ready to go so that he's uh were able to uh do all this and I I bought all the equipment and got everything so that like the plan was to have in-person interviews a long time ago so we're uh like I already have everything set up for this I just had to move stuff around but now the problem is is that yes if that mic starts messing up it's not as easy as it was before to just reset it so um but yeah so anyways so the the point is is that like lots of times you'll hear right-wingers saying that the governments made laws against criticizing Jews which just isn't true it is uh there there are laws against foreign governments meddling in our election and so foreign companies are not allowed to boycott Israel why because it doesn't make sense for us to allow foreign companies to [ __ ] with our allies and our like trade agreements with other comp with other countries that there would there's no way we would allow people to do that and this isn't something specific to Israel but everybody makes it as though makes it out as though it is specific to Israel whereas no in general we don't allow foreign companies or foreign businesses or foreign agents to [ __ ] with our politics we just don't we don't allow that not within our country go do it in your country that's fine but you can't do it here and so if you are somebody who Associates with these companies you have to actually tell the government and the Lauren Chen did not tell the United States government that she was working with foreign agents so one of the things that this mentioned as a story that they put out was the uh that the Ukraine was respons ible for a shooting at a concert I believe um let's see if we can find that one Ukraine and the US were responsible for a March terrorist attack at a music venue in Moscow okay um so this is Rutter doing a fact check on it Russia's FSB Chief accuses Ukraine us and UK of being behind Moscow shooting okay let's see if I want to see if we could find um I want to see if we can find any of these people doing it specifically um all right all right here I got a better idea yeah I can't find them uh oh that's cuz I keep misspelling it okay there we are okay oh [ __ ] oh [ __ ] okay so you guys wanted uh you guys wanted examples it looks like we have one here a bad guy runs up to and he's shooting at you and you shoot back he dies you walk over you pick up his gun you pick up his clothes you take his stuff you put in your bag and you keep going that's the implication of people who are untrained and in capable but you know a lot of people have pointed out that if you are buying emergency food and you don't have guns thank you for for buying the food for me that's what they say thank you for buying the food for me yeah I stress this all the time if if you've got a lot of preparations don't have the guns and not just the guns but you know the defensive walls enough people to have a lot of guards okay so artificial intelligence AI today okay I think they might talk about it a little bit here you're just going to go out there and get killed if you do that so don't plan on just surviving in the wood you need to have a survival Community if you really want to have a good chance of making it so let's talk about positivity versus preparedness so a lot of people just don't want to go there and they just want to say it's in God's hands or you know I just want to stay positive Etc uh Drew brought up that roughly 30 % of Americans may be doing some kind of prepping today this is not crazy to think about this you look at where we are with Hezbollah Hamas Iran Israel you look at Ukraine Russia you look at the chance of Taiwan and China today you look at the chance of election Shenanigans between now and November you look at you know the risk of H5 N1 Etc all these risks are out there so if you care about your life and you care about your loved ones you know spend a little bit of time on this and you're not crazy this is a smart thing to do the nuclear war threat's going up too we just did a preparedness item on the collapse Survivor on that Russia just announced this first time they've ever done this saying we're now going to do an exercise with Battlefield tactical nuclear weapons and they're doing that because they feel threatened because we're putting more and more long range highly capable Conventional Weapons that can hit Moscow and all over the place they've been threatening France the UK and the US that if you don't back off we're going to we're willing to use nuclear weapons and they said it before but they're getting more specific if you can bring up slide three we just did a notice on that no [ __ ] shot who said they were GNA use nukes because we give real threat alerts on the collaps Survivor app as well we just put out an item on this NATO is really pushing Russia towards nuclear weapons use we keep giving him more and more capable weapons that they're using to go deeper and deeper into Russia and Russia is telling us very openly very blatantly this is provocative we will use nuclear weapons and the battlefield nuclear weapons are the best ones for them to use CU our first George Bush gave them up NATO is pushing Russia towards nuclear war though the Russian nuclear threat and the probability of nuclear war in Europe has just escalated what the [ __ ] dude this is actually insane this is actually like complete [ __ ] this is total [ __ ] like for those of you who don't really keep up with the war and you don't really know much about it so just just understand it so there the we we have very few nuclear Powers within the UN with within the world okay big nuclear Powers people who have [ __ ] nukes that they could just destroy entire countries with Russia and the United States are two of these countries which kind of means that we can never fight each other we can never fight each other because if we do there just becomes a higher likelihood of nukes being fired so we just can never fight each other we can never go at it with each other which is why the cold war is something that existed for so long it wasn't a real war where we're actually killing people where we're actually got you know we got boots on the ground we got people firing at each other or anything like that no we're it's a cold war we have [ __ ] nukes aimed at each other's countries and everybody's just sitting there waiting for one of them to do something wrong to where the [ __ ] nukes go off and they destroy the entire other country and this was all over the news every single day for years where everybody was afraid that they were going to get nuked in the United States they thought it was going to be Russia and Russia they thought it was going to be the United States and there was a whole lot of fearmongering that came with this like you know the the Red Scare and all sorts of crap like that like there was you know McCarthyism and everything where where they're afraid of all of the the Communist um you know now today obviously we have the magga Communists that are uh you know called tenant media a little bit different we got the we got these uh you know generals over here with their uh with their Maga uniforms and their Hammers and sickles and everything it's we got a it's a little bit different these days but back then yes like it was pretty serious so now today while we do still consider Russia to be an enemy and Russia is still pushing lots of misinformation into our country and trying to [ __ ] with our elections and they are still uh they are still like a nuclear enemy we are willing to fund Ukraine to get away from Russia that is beneficial to us to take away a satellite state from an enemy country and it's beneficial to us to uh to make it to where like you know Ukraine is going to be more involved in the western economy and have more trade deals with the rest of us and possibly even uh get into a NATO agreement with the rest of us possible who knows but the main thing is like the economic aspects to it so while we're funding them and we're sending them weapons and we're helping them out we are not sending troops over there United State troops end up over there helping out we are [ __ ] like we if we actually do that we are officially entering the war instead we're just supporting one side of the war that's one thing that is totally different than like declaring war against Russia and yes if we end up sending our own troops to take part in this then uh then we are actually like de you know this is an act of War on Russia we only send the CIA there well it's a little bit different we we do have like operatives who give them intelligence who give them uh like a advice and and advise you know the uh the higher-ups within Ukraine but that's insanely different than actually putting boots on the ground and having our military forces fighting against them that is these are just insanely different things and that's what I'm trying to describe right now is the fact that yes these are these are major differences here and so where they're sitting here trying to like tell this story about the fact that NATO is pushing Russia towards nuclear war the entire reason that the war has gone on for so long and the entire reason that this is such a difficult war that exists is because the United States and NATO are not willing to actually put boots on the ground they are not willing to actually send people in there because they are trying to avoid a nuclear war at all costs they are doing everything they can to make sure that they are not actually considered uh enemy combatants but instead just people who are funding uh Ukraine these are very very different scenarios so where are they sending this stuff to I I [ __ ] swear you guys have to you you guys have to be way more specific okay if you're going to ask questions ask full questions don't say this don't say that don't say he or her don't say like I need full sentences words I'm I'm stating like 20 different things and then somebody's like but what does that mean like I don't know what that I don't know what that is also because the stream went down earlier I think a lot of you are like 30 seconds behind now so maybe try speeding up for a little bit to get caught up but um yeah so this is this is some obvious Russia misinformation being pushed here um and this is on Tim pool's show let's see if we get more here uh the borders that it had before Russia invaded I feel like naille Illinois will be conquered in two seconds you have gangs from Chicago in a bit there's a lot of money a lot of people and they do not own guns and then very quickly if things were to fall apart yeah so I wanted to ask your opinion on on the Ukraine war I it's my opinion that there was never really a possibility without NATO interference uh that that Ukraine would retain the uh the borders that it had before Russia invaded I think the people that are talking about going you know getting crime back and stuff are are are clowns and I think that the idea that without the United States that Ukraine could stop uh Russia from taking the whole country I think that's not that's a joke as well I feel like the best option that we have is to convince Ukraine to uh to to not surrender but to to negotiate with Russia and convince Russia to negotiate as well but I also think that there's so much money laundering going on over there that there's not an incentive for for for the feds to actually put that kind of pressure on the the active players and I would like your thoughts on the situation a lot of points there so let me try I apologize sorry um first trying to outc Conventional War the Russian army is a bad idea uh especially when you just don't have the Manpower that they do um second if the ukrainians had been given and they a if they had been given and they were able to fully function with all the equipment early on there's a chance they could have broken through and done some kind of maneuver Warfare campaign but the pause right cuz this this much this much vaunted offensive which was supposed to happen this last summer which didn't go anywhere why because the Russians know exactly the axis of approach that they're going to come the Russians build the same kind of defenses that they would have done just north um in the Battle of KK in the summer of 43 was the biggest tank battle in military history wow 6,000 tanks wow God imagine that okay that was Nazi army versus the Soviet Army and there was a there was a um a bulge in the line of the Soviets and the Germans were trying to break through from the North and South around the city of K but because the the Allies had broken the Enigma code they knew what the Germans were planning down to unit position everything else and the Russians found out and they built three and five layers of defenses which just ate all the the German attacks and it was the last offensive action the Germans took on the Eastern front that's exactly what the Russian army did to the ukrainians this last summer they knew where they're coming and wherever they attack they just ate it between okay yeah I'm trying to find any like any of them obviously talking more specifically about the specific story that they mentioned um it's possible that once this came out that all of them took these down off their channels so there's obviously Russian misinformation being pushed and there's obvious um obvious propaganda here but it it from what I can see it looks like these specific stories have been taken down all across all of their channels like I've gone through almost every channel and it's it's really hard to uh to find anything like this um I guess this one could possibly be related so let me let me see what this one is um go to war with him Russia gate it's endless now the FBI rating is home because they said we're in charge and you'll will do what we want and Trump said no I lived in Washington in the Beltway for about 8 nine years and one of the biggest shocks while I was there was realizing the military-industrial complex is not a conspiracy theory it's 100% real and these people are not going to vote for people or appoint people who are going to take away from their their bottom line they are not going to have policies that are going to reduce their income level and responsible policies the way you do modern warfare right now we do not need to have military-industrial complex at the scale we do the only politician in America who really understood that apparently was Trump and he comes in maybe there's a couple others but none with his PL that I don't know where they're getting that from Trump trump put insane amounts of money into the uh the military industrial complex I don't know I'm pretty sure he upped the amount that we were putting into it he even put on shows that cost millions of dollars where he had like [ __ ] tanks and [ __ ] lined up if I remember correctly is that am I am I correct in this didn't that am I am I making this up in my head did he not have some sort of like military Supremacy thing where he out like had the military line up and had tanks and everything lined up and he walks through and and like did his whole like show like he was the [ __ ] USSR he wanted to but he didn't do it I thought they actually did it did it not happen I remember the planning of it but I thought it like I thought it ended up happening and I could have sworn I saw like pictures and videos from it but maybe I'm just um it never happened he wanted to do a military turn him down uh the military can't turn him down he's the Commander in Chief but um but okay for he comes in this is a huge threat and he had a very minimalist foreign policy peace through strength it was entirely effective and this is something that is a huge threat because that is how they make all their money look at where all these guys go when they're out of the administration they go into this Loop this revolving door they make millions of dollars in Contracting and then back into the government for the next establishment establishmentarian Administration look at what they did in Afghanistan the billions of dollars that was left there the planes the Weaponry the the the the the I mean how could they how can you do that how intentional of course bid surrendered absolutely if Ian were here but Ian's off the night he would he would tell you that Biden surrendered our forces and and and's and he's correct Biden abandoned bam Air Force base without telling our partners in Afghanistan that makes no sense there's no way you do that such a scandal and it was looted by by by just random people and then we drown a bunch of kids right after y yeah good stuff and it doesn't talk about and Joe wants to give a nice little speech on that let me jump to the story of the New York Times Trump's I hate the way that they talk about these things because I I feel like they complain about stuff like this when if they and all they ever do is what isms right if I bring up something that Trump did horribly all they do is like oh yeah what about Biden like you know I say oh you guys committed a coup they're like oh well you guys didn't even elect Cala Harris like I can't believe you think these things are similar in any way but when all you have is what about isms that's all you can do because Trump is just so indefensible that your only hope is to just keep bringing up random whataboutism I understand that you're kind of uh pushed into a corner where you don't really have much of a choice but for things like this like a like this is very similar to what Trump's actual plan was to get out of Afghanistan like if you read Trump's plan it is almost like [ __ ] identical to what it was that he wanted to do to get out of Afghanistan um they'll they'll do things all the time where they'll complain about like uh uh they'll say like oh this one single drone strike that Biden did that killed a civilian like didn't Trump set records for civilian deaths from drone strikes like what why what is your why is this something that you bring up all the time as like some horrible uh thing that uh Biden did that he should be crucified for when you're not you're not uh you're not like differentiating him in any way from from Trump the person that you guys want who will do the same thing but much worse so yeah it's just uh uh the military can turn him down there are proper procedures to do all this stuff and he was denied Trump could use his executive powers to make it happen but that is not the standard op procedure well I mean Trump doesn't normally follow standard procedures but thank you I I fair enough I that seems weird to me but I suppose uh there is a a standard procedure and a chain of command and uh a way that these things go so yeah so I don't see anything specifically about the concert um that happened in Ukraine and I don't see uh yeah I don't see this story being pushed like the main thing is that I'm trying to find them talk about a concert CU I don't have any other information about this I'm just trying to find them talking about a concert in Ukraine where there was a shooting and almost every time we listen to them say the word concert they're saying in concert with XY Z like they're they're just they're each time they're saying in concert with this person not saying they were at a concert but in concert means to say like in conjunction with or um you know in tandem with uh in operation with and so yeah it's none of these are are the same as what it is that we're we're looking for but um so yeah so this whole March terrorist attack at a music venue um wait it just it does say a music venue it doesn't even say a concert um yeah I don't know I don't know um so yeah this ISS the indictment claims that the founders were aware they were working with Russian Nationals and did not register with the US attorney general as an agent of a foreign principal as required by law for example the indictment claims the founders referred to RT employees as the Russians in private messages with each other when the company fake backer when the compy fake backer uh Edward rorian did not reply to a message about money one of the founders allegedly Googled time in Moscow one of the founders also allegedly worked directly with rt and its German subsidiary okay so earlier when we were looking at the names and we saw that the names that they didn't always use their Russian names and I said oh okay so maybe they didn't know that they Russian maybe it's possible that they had no idea that they were working for like real Russian agents they're saying here this is evidence that they did know that they 100% knew that these were Russian agents that they were working for that these were people not just like U not just random Russians but Russians likely from the Kremlin when they're searching time in Moscow so it seems very likely that Lauren Chen and her husband who were the two leaders of the tenant company that was being paid to push Russian misinformation and they were handing this mis misinformation down to their other employees and their other content creators like Lauren Southern Tim P Benny Johnson Dave Rubin that they are getting all of them to also post the misinformation that it seems they know exactly what it is they're doing now we still don't have any information to say that the employee knew so timp Dave Ruben Lauren Southern we don't really know that they knew about this we're not sure that I haven't seen anything to say that they knew about this and supposedly the the comments that all of them have made about this is to say we are victims of this we didn't know that's that's what they say but again it doesn't as far as legality goes that's a good excuse Maybe you won't get legally charged you won't be in the indictment fair enough but as far as a a content creator goes as far as somebody who is a pundit as far as somebody who is giving information on these things you have a responsibility to look into the stories that are being given to you you you just uncritically pushing the information that they're telling you to push is insane and the fact that you didn't double check any of it the fact that you just went and did what they told you to to and you didn't go in and uh make sure that the information was correct you didn't find out that this was pure propaganda being pushed straight from the Kremlin this still tells me that this is an immoral person who is not willing to actually double check any of their sources and that they shouldn't be trusted by any of their followers or any of their subscribers any of their patrons ever again this is proof right here of everything that we claim about these content creators this is proven in these stories in these indictments with all of the evidence here it is proven that even though they may not be legally liable even though they may not be uh uh indicted they may not get in trouble we know for a fact that these are people who are just pushing the stories that they're told to push and that's it we have facts here to know that much uh okay Destiny had some really good points uh who thinks Lauren Chan has millions of dollars to pay people how do just how do these creators not look into who is paying you when you're in journalism I I don't I don't know that that's a really good point uh can you tell us what information you're calling misinformation and are you considering Russian people and Russian government to be the same thing no we're saying that these are known agents for the Kremlin that we know the information was coming from the Kremlin this is in the indictment and we've already gone over what the what some of the examples of misinformation are so if you want to rewind and go back I don't want to keep retreading the same things for people who are just coming in but if you are just coming in take a second hit the thumbs UPS appreciate you joining us and also uh if you don't go follow me on social media all of my links are in the description we also have a Discord for this community we have uh lots of conversations in the server everybody's always posting news stories in there there's uh right-

is in the description so going going back to the article it says the Creator referred to as commentator 1 is alleged to have pressed Chen and Donovan the founders for more information about rorian one of the founders after pressing the RT employees for information was told to send him a LinkedIn page for Viewpoint Productions a barebones LinkedIn page under that name says we are free speech absolutists we believe that Free Speech benefits Humanity and that the cure for negative speech allows more voices to be heard rather than silencing or censorship this is Rich As [ __ ] coming from a [ __ ] Russian agent dude this is so rich coming from a Russian bro that's wild that's wild in Russia you just say something against uh Putin and you can get put down for it you're you're just a journalist that says something mean about Putin you didn't like his haircut and you're [ __ ] you disappeared you're sleeping with the fishes Gone Forever it's uh yeah it's wild that that's something that he's putting on his LinkedIn page but okay um and links to a WordPress site with a default introduction in French and the name of the company misspelled okay wow uh later one of the founders was alleged ly provided a CV for Gregorian to show commentator 1 next to a photo of a man looking out of the window of a private plane it listed his interests as poverty alleviation championing free speech and advocating for social justice causes what is a what is a CV does anybody know what CV stands for um I'm uh I'm not aware of this shortening of whatever it is that they're talking about here so what I assume it's some sort of resume I'm asking what CV stands for curriculum V okay thank you um let's see the founder later allegedly reported to one of the RT employees that commentator 1 had a problem with the profile we sent over specifically the reference to social justice yeah I was about to say I don't I don't think putting social justice in there is a good thing because that's something that most right-wingers would relate back to leftists so I I uh I don't I don't think that was a good idea I know that like for people outside of the United States they think of social justice as just social justice that's a normal thing everybody wants to be in favor of social justice just Which social justice you're in favor of is different from one person to another or from one um from one ideology to another but in the United States yeah we hear social justice and we think oh social justice Warriors well yeah those those are leftists those are crazy leftists so yeah this is the story talking about all of them being included in the indictment it looks like Warren Chen is one of the main leaders within this project who is in some serious trouble here today the Department of Justice charged two Russian State media employees with allegedly infiltrating an American digital media company and allegedly manipulating its content and the output of the company now even though the doj did not reveal the name of this us-based Media Company it is suspected that they're talking about tenant media and some of the talent associated with tenant media has kind of come out on social media to kind of confirm this so we'll get to those details in just a moment but first we do need to give you some more details on what these allegations entail so the doj's press release on the charges claimed that two Russian employees were from the Russian media Outlet called Russia today or RT um and they used fake personas in order to get hired at this American based if you guys don't know of what RT is who is the what there's two people that we know of that came from this debate space if you guys could remind me of their names I can't remember I know one of them is Caleb and the other one is the guy who used to hang out with infrared all the time but there there's we've had RT employees in this space numerous times talking about uh or pushing Russian propaganda and uh you know talking about the like crazy like almost all of them seem to be tankies as well they seem to be communist people who are no the people I said the people yes like Jackson Hinkle is one of them yes um and then there's another redheaded guy I think his first name is Caleb uh Caleb something um I'm not asking about the the channel RT I'm asking I asked about the people that are and I can't remember their names but that's yeah Jackson Hinkle is one of them the other one's like some redheaded guy who's written a bunch of books and has been caught doing weird things many times and these are Caleb mopin yes Caleb mopin and Jackson hanle if you know who those two people are these are two people who work for RT these are like like crazy communist tanky [ __ ] weirdos who are all pushing the most insane [ __ ] [ __ ] ever outside of like an any Trumper or rightwing media Outlet they're probably all on par with each other but you know in comparison to normal news outlets all across the United States these are just things that seem incomprehensible like you can just listen to them talk and it is pretty clear that they are people who have no idea what they're talking about that they're conspiracy theorists and that they are constantly just pushing information that is going to benefit their agenda more than anything else it's not that they're trying to look for truth or they're not trying to like uh get information out to people they just want to get out whatever it is that benefits them Media company they then allegedly worked from within this company to amplify by pro-russian narratives and attempt to stoke divisions among Americans now the company's two Founders also both allegedly have ties to RT and were involved in this whole scheme I want to just stop for a moment and and make sure we're all on the same page these are indictments the doj is making allegations obviously they need to prove what theying but these specific names tied to them very specific methods in which they allegedly tried to infiltrate the American Media to uh spread disinformation on behalf of the Russian government so the indictment features a Woman by the name of Alena or Elena I should say Elena I'm going to do my that's what I said that's what I said too I said that too allegedly as well I also I also say said allegedly the whole time and my title and my thumbnail and all of those things also say allegedly allegedly allegedly her last name aen ASA aen aseva uh one of the undercover Russian employees allegedly uh that was charged in this so let's go to the doj's press release on this and what they are claiming so after the March 22nd 2024 terrorist attack on a music venue in Moscow she asked one of us company 1's Founders to blame Ukraine and the United States for the attack writing quote I think we can focus on the Ukraine us angle the mainstream media spread fake news that Isis claimed responsibility for the attack yet so so this is like where it becomes obvious that they're not just trying to uh they're not they're not just like funding something that's beneficial to them they're not just saying oh you guys talk a lot about things that we like we would like to help you get that message out there right so there's I there's been a uh people who have come to me and said hey we like your content we would like to help fund your content and then later we might use your platform to like advertise things and stuff like that and so for right now we're just going to give you a bunch of money and we're going to like uh we're going to allow you to use that money however you want to build your platform those are not people who are coming and telling me what to do they're not telling me what to say they're not telling me uh you know what stories to push they're not telling me what drama to cover they're not telling me any of these things these are people who are just coming and saying hey here's uh here's the money we like what it is that you're doing we like your show we like how it is that you cover topics and so we're just going to give you some money and we're going to allow you to use this to uh to grow your platform but when they do this not just telling you what specific stories to cover but they specifically say that they want to focus on the the you know specific angle of it I think we can focus on the Ukraine us angle yeah that's uh that's that is becomes pretty obvious that you are taking part in just a a propaganda machine you are just there to just push specific stories regardless of the truth regardless of what it is that's actually being said regardless of like what anybody else is saying because even like Ashley said here this is something that Isis literally had already taken responsibility for and they still moved forward pushing this angle of the of the US and Ukraine taking part in uh shooting a bunch of people at a concert so it's a like a terrorist attack and they're trying to make it it sound as though the United States and Ukraine are behind it so it says since publicly launching in or about November 23 2023 the US company one had posted nearly 2000 oh wait we already wrot read this um kalashov aanaa founder one and founder two so founder one and founder two um are Lauren Chen and her husband that's we now know founder one and founder two are Lauren Chen and her husband uh company one is tenant media and then they have like social social media influencer one social media influencer 2 and those are uh the people that we named earlier with like you know Benny Johnson uh Dave Rubin all those people um so yeah founder one founder two also work together to deceive two Us online commentators commentator 1 and commentator 2 who respectively have over 2 .4 million and 1.3 million YouTube subscribers founder 1 and founder 2 contracted with commentator 1 and commentator 2 to produce videos using commentator ones and commentator 2's own names and leveraging their existing audiences for license and publication by us company 1 so again us company one is tenant uh I'm just going to instead of saying their names I'm just going to say the Russians the Russians founder one and founder two again Lauren Chen and her husband worked together to mask us company one uh true source of funding iert by falsely portraying to commentator 1 and commentator 2 that us company won was sponsored by a private investor named eduward G G Gregorian in truth and in fact Gregorian was a fictional persona for example during contract negotiations commentator one requested that founder one provide a profile or article on Edward rorian so this is uh what sounds like to be Dave Rubin or Benny Johnson uh is commentator 1 in response founder one sent commentator 1 a one-page profile provided to founder one by another fictional Persona purporting to represent edar gregorians falsely describing Edward Gregorian as an accomplished Finance professional who had held various positions in Brussels and France at a multi-national Bank bank one including director of private banking Division and wealth management after receiving the ficticious profile commentator 1 agreed to work with us company 1 and produce the prox imately 130 videos that were published on us company 1's platform so again this is the indictment from the doj that's what we're back to reading now um and they are trying to keep all of the names private so it is uh this is how they're going over it but they give enough information here for us to know who it is that they're talking about and we also know that they themselves have come out and talked about it and they seem to also be very clear that they are part of this so this is Tim P's statement on Twitter he said my statement regarding allegations and the doj indictment should these allegations prove true I as well as other personalities and commentators we're deceived and are victims I can so initially I believe he put out a statement before this one I believe his first statement that he put out said something a about like this all being fake news that this is these are lies this is like um um like you know Democrats uh uh propaganda and crap like that and they were pretty much saying that uh I I believe that's what he said but it uh it seems as though so so yeah so okay so yeah so so he he put out a new one that had the changes to it because he got a community note on the first one that said that uh it says it's not a leaked indictment it's part of an official press release by the dojj the full indictment can be accessed through the press release so yeah initially he was acting as though this was a fake indictment and that it said it was leaked and so he he's like oh we don't even know if this is real cuz this was supposedly leaked and crap like that so um so yeah so he put out a new one that's this one that you know now has his correction where here he's says this is corrected because I didn't know this was an official doj release so he says should the allegations prove true I as well as the other personalities and commentators were deceived and are victims I cannot speak for anyone else at the company as to what they do or to what they are instructed the culture War podcast was licensed by tenant media it existed well before any license agreement with tenant and it will continue to exist after any such agreement expires the only change with the agreement was that the location of the live broadcast moved to tenant's YouTube channel I and TCW never produced any content for tenant media I remember I remember not too long ago when I was doing the documentary on Candace Owens if you haven't seen it go check out my other channel where I put out documentaries on online content creators uh the channel is called terminally online media go subscribe to that channel as well but during that whole uh while I was doing research for that documentary I remember the fact that Ben Shapiro and kis Owens were supposed to do a debate and they couldn't agree on a place to do it because the obviously Ben wanted to do it at their studio and she said no I'm not doing it at a daily wire Studio you guys just fired me so they said okay then we'll meet you in Tennessee and she was like okay fine I guess I guess that's why they said Tennessee like they knew what Studios they were talking about in Tennessee it was Lauren Chen studio for tenant that's that's got to be what it was I'm just assuming I don't know but that's what it sounds like never at any point did anyone other than I have full editorial control of the show and the contents of the show are often apolitical examples include discussing spirituality dating and video games the show is produced in its entirety by our local Team without input from anyone external to the company TCW is separate company not associated with timc count.com or other properties it exists solely for the production of the culture War podcast that being said we still do not know what this uh what is true as these are only allegations Putin is a scumbag Russia sucks only donkey balls do you think his lawyer wrote this for him I'm starting to feel like maybe his lawyer wrote this form this is just a little bit too politically stated you know it's just a little too straightforward and like you know they're not really making any like clear definitive statements it's all just you know it's a little too vague not really sure say seems like it maybe his lawyer just put out the statement for him he goes on to say uh and to the journalists who wish to jump the gun create their own narrative if or lie about what is currently going on you can eat my Irish ass uh so yeah I mean here's PCO in the comments obviously saying what I think everybody is thinking uh he said show us the communications between your organization and tenant media reps we need to verify this yeah I would uh I would imagine yes if you're saying like oh we don't know what the truth is is we have no idea well are you sure that you don't have any idea cuz based on what you're telling us here this is very different from what we just read in the indictment the indictment seems to make it sound like you guys were told what stories to cover and so do you think it's okay for the White House to pay social media influence to put out propaganda I can't I can't tell if that's like a real question I can't tell if that's a real [ __ ] question yeah of course what do you like the White House the White House is literally always putting out [ __ ] propaganda and [ __ ] like they that's their jobs like they're I don't know I can't like yeah I'm just not sure if you yeah of course I'm assuming you're you're referencing the the whole like anti- red pill stuff which isn't really the White House the that's the uh these are like other government organizations that are not directly connected to the White House but yeah of course duh Tom are you being for real right now you're going to have to be a lot more specific than than that for real about what specifically uh so background on Russian influence operations so this is back to the uh indictment from the doj we are on chapter five now um here's the full PDF for anybody else who wants to read it I will post it in all three chats for you guys right now so you can check it out yourselves if you [Music] wish yeah background on Russian influence operations RT is a Russian state funded and state directed media Outlet as RT's editorinchief has publicly acknowledged since RT receives budget from the state it must complete tasks given by the state for nearly two decades RT has promoted the objectives of the government of Russia by publishing disinformation and propaganda leveraging its International Network to amplify the government of Russia of Russia's message to foreign audiences and using it its guise as a convention media Outlet to lend credibility to that message RT's propaganda is most obvious when it reports on matters of importance to the government of Russia such as public opinion about Ukraine in the United States uh sorry in the United States when direct propaganda is not effective however RT has pursued malign influence campaigns in countries opposed to its policies including the United States in an effort to so domestic Division and thereby weaken opposition to governments of Russia uh of Russia's objectives for example in discussing RT's coverage of the United Kingdom exit from the European Union in 2016 an RT journalist recalled to an academic researcher I asked my editor what is RT's line for this brexit and he said anything that causes chaos is RT's line so this is what I was talking about initially when I said that like Russia uh propaganda machine is not made normally for specific outcomes so they're not normally saying you know what let's try to make sure that Donald Trump gets elected or let's make sure that Hillary Clinton gets elected or let's make sure that we get you know this idea out so that people will like Russia more or like this isn't uh this isn't normally their overall objective right they they do this as well that's part of it and that's something that like they will seep into stories here and there and it's yes it's it's like an aspect of what it is they do but it is not the goal of what they do the goal is to sew division that's it that is always the goal that is always the point they just want confusion that is that is the the the mingle so after after 911 the United States we were all pretty undivided we were indivisible one nation under God we were not about like you know two parties or anything like this obviously still existed obviously there were still dis agreements obviously we still had liberals and conservatives and uh Democrats and Republicans right-wing and leftwing these still existed but it wasn't like this hardcore division like no we were [ __ ] Americans more than anything we weren't those [ __ ] Arabs but but we were Americans and after the Russian disinformation campaign in the 2016 election they successfully swed so much [ __ ] division within the United States and within our politics and our political discussions that yes it is just carried on till today and they uh yeah it's probably one of the most successful uh disinformation campaigns they have ever put on and it is it is something that you we are uh we are still suffering from today so um this is a post from Michael wise he said Elon Musk naturally promoted nonsense pedal by tenant media which was financed by now indicted Russian operatives this is from uh somebody named James they posted a screenshot of numerous times ion musk commented on things from tenant media where he would literally just post a uh looking glass or just an exclamation point or just two exclamation points he having a much wider reach for uh this sounds like an excuse to blame Russia Russia Russia if Trump wins Drew you heard everything I just said right I literally just said that their goal is not to get Trump elected the fact that that's what you say right after I finish explaining that their goal is not to get Trump elected is [ __ ] insane like you guys truly come into my chat and you don't listen to a word I say you just know what you right-wingers always say and so you just [ __ ] repeat the same thing that literally 10 other right wiers have already come in here and said before you all of them have come in and said literally the same exact thing that you just said and none of you make any sense when you say it because everybody's been pretty clear that that's not the that that is not the goal I like I just finished talking about this I just finished saying that that is not the goal is the goal is not to get Trump elected and you and 10 other right-wingers all said the same thing even though I've repeated this over and over throughout this entire segment talking about the fact that they are not purposefully just trying to get Trump elected so it doesn't uh it that there's not another thought process I could have here except for you guys are just repeating what it is that you know you're supposed to repeat without listening to a [ __ ] word coming out of my mouth you just hear Russia and you're like oh I'm supposed to say Russia Russia Russia oh Democrats are upset with Russia they're trying to Discount Trump's win oh they won't listen to Trump's win it's all TDS they hate Trump they hate Trump so much and you're just doing your NPC talking points where you're just repeating everything that you were told to repeat I don't uh I don't understand but anyways so he's just like putting random comments on there which makes it get pushed in the algorithm so if I go comment on Twitter under somebody else's post that will turn around and make it to where all of my followers are more likely to see their posts now as well and Elon has literally and this is proven okay Elon literally asked his texts to rewrite the code for the algorithm for Twitter to make it to where his posts get pushed more he gets more Amplified on Twitter than anybody else so him just commenting on this makes it to where tenets posts take off why would he do that why would he do this where he just posts exclamation points why would he do that he's not saying anything he's not making a comment he's not adding to the discussion it's not as though he seems to have a thought about this he's just putting something there that's it the only reason I can think of is that he would just put something there so that they get Amplified in the AL algorithm with his account and here's more oh wow not saying anything he just says interesting concerning just wow looking into it that's it he's not he's not saying anything he's just he's just writing random [ __ ] I can't imagine what the point of that would be um this is Matt Christensen he says I will be hosting a special stream on my own channel to address the tenant media controversy and indictment at 9:00 eastern time my friend Frank quietly TV will join me so let's see did he address it that's very interesting so okay so this is this looks like the other guy who is on the tenant media channel that I said I didn't know who he was I think that's the guy in the middle I assume I assume that's him there but I don't uh oh wait there he was okay yes Matt Matt Christensen okay that is who he is okay I not they must love my show well everybody uh everybody on TW obviously I had if ever frankly is here as he usually would be on his uh first appearance of the month first Wednesday of the month so Frank thank you for gracing us and hey man I am happy to be here qu frankly. TV for all things quite frankly and hey if ever I needed a beer today is a day that I needed a beer and yes it's a high life please beer snobs don't shame me I've I've graduated from K's light that I used to who's the other guy the redhead yeah I don't know who he is either um let's see they seem to name them in the titles each time they put up one of their videos let's see if we can okay here he is gay trans man doesn't want to lose abortion right Taylor Hansen why are you voting for KLA Harris cuz she is the woman that we need she's everything we're looking for I don't want to lose my rights cuz she's a woman yeah as you see obviously there is no because I I don't really like Trump but I I just I I like him a lot more a lot less than I like her drink yester Year anyway um okay obviously I had a whole show planned today that we're going to talk about other items in the news until indirectly I became the news about noon today I'm sitting down I'm texting Frank earlier like hey I want to talk about this and that I'll see you then and then I start getting emails from reporters hey this indictment just dropped do you have commentary on that wow that's very interesting I not so there was Russian collusion Trump was probably involved right wait what might be jumping to conclusions yes you are jumping to collusions love my show well everybody uh everybody on Twitter is correctly joking hey congratulations Matt you finally got your headpiece you finally made not really though get a Lo of this like look at the disrespect Frank you pull up an article like here's Daily Dot covering it we're all Russian assets of course yeah I was they're probably always saying something like laurren Southern Benny Johnson Tim p as well as other right-wing content creators that's probably what that's I think that's what my title say like that's probably what uh what all of them say of course but do they have your eyes BL like Whited out no that was kind of stylized by the tenant team like they they kind of made a stylized photo edits when they did the promos we kind of look like white walkeryoutube St like they didn't edit it that way they have them looking into lights so that's it seems like Lauren was having a problems with looking into the light so she kept like closing her eyes more cuz she didn't like it but that's what that's what I do here like it makes my eyes like a lot Bluer every time I'm looking at like something white and so yes so I like make it to where not only am I looking at white but I have like a glare on my eyes as well it makes it a lot better and you want a lot of like shadow on the other side of your face so generally if I minimize this I get glare on my eyes and a lot of Shadow and so I get Shadow on one side while you still can see a lot of my face this adds like a lot more uh Dimensions to the the picture that I'm putting on so even just like if you guys ever look at my thumbnails on my channel I add Shadows to everybody's faces as well I add Shadows to the entire picture so you can see like there's Shadow coming down from the top and then it gets brighter with the Kremlin behind them you can see uh the left side of her face is darker than or sorry the right side for us is darker than the other side here it's darker for him I I left Tim's face normal uh but yeah there's just like a I add like a lot of shadowing and then even there's Shadow like behind his head here and behind Tim's head here where it gets brighter as it gets farther away from him like all of these things just kind of add a lot more dimensions and uh um makes it all look a bit better and same with the glare on the eyes so with all of these they're shining a light right into their eyes so that they get the Little Dot on the eyes that shows the glare and that makes it yeah just a bit more Dynamic there are some photos that I have where I actually add the the DOT on the eyes myself um so you guys may have possibly have seen and I could be you know maybe you didn't um but to make somebody look more like they were crying and look more like they had a uh you know very uh shiny eyes I added two glare spots on their eyes like that so that yeah it looked more watery and then when it's put down like this yeah it just looks looks like he's crying now it looks like his his eyes are a little bit more watery so has more of a reflection yeah I think that's that's all they were trying to do is just get that aspect as part of their their pictures yeah so there's coverage here oh there a bunch of Russian stoes there a bunch of Russian assets maybe unwittingly we'll get to that but look at the disrespect a media startup from reactionary luminaries such as Tom you have the title rightwing pundit except bribes who are you referring to uh Lauren Chen and her husband are I don't really if you guys have so many [ __ ] questions you really should just go back to the beginning I've explained everything I've gone through I'm not done going through the indictment we're still going to go through more but every question question that you guys have asked so far things that I've already gone over Tim P Benny Johnson Dave ruin lawren Dave rubin's not even on it anymore hasn't been there for for months you got to scroll down and down and and later wait it doesn't matter if Dave Rubin hasn't been there for months if he was there during the time that they were paying uh tenant that's all that matters he could have been gone for [ __ ] years if they paid them years ago during the time that Dave ruin was there that's all that matters I don't know who cares if he's gone only like paragraphs down am I even the disrespect man that's that's my main gripe out of all of this that's the first time I actually saw your your yeah sorry Matt Christensen never heard of you buddy name in any of the Articles because I was pining through quite a few of them yeah I don't know man I'm not one of 100 I'm one of six and I'm at least I got my photo front and center that's very nice of them yeah it almost makes you look the most important like you are the you the the main Nazi okay like there you are in the middle hit piece at least a Jason that's that's yeah they wanted to make sure that they really highlight that these are white people okay we don't have any of these [ __ ] over here doing our [ __ ] news no sir we are right-wing media okay we're we're in favor of trump I'm just kidding that's a career accomplishment for me of course but career accomplishment number two I can confirm to you Frank that just before live I received an email from the FBI asking for a volunt interview from me because they believe that I'm the victim of a crime the FBI wants to talk to me how I handle that I will decide at a later time but I can confirm right now that the FBI is wishing to speak to me about this matter so I just want to go through my I I want to see if he mentions Lauren Southern or sorry Lauren Chen by name so I'll give him about five minutes to hear what he has to say at the beginning of this because this is a two-hour show I'm not about to watch two hours of this so I'll give him about 5 minutes to hear what he has to say and then I'm going to search the transcript to see if there's anything more specific perspective on all of this explain how I experienced all of this what's going to happen next and really this stream is about making sure that my core audience understands where I'm coming from and that people don't feel like I am some trickster or some person who was deceiving them or something or that I have been tricked or duped or something like that what matters to me most is that the people who listen to me Trust that what I say it's my own words that I'm writing it that I'm speaking it that I'm not someone's mouthpiece and fundamentally those are the accusations here and so I'm going to go through this and I know this is not what we had planned on talking about Frank but I appreciate you you coming by just to uh to help me through it you're a friend and I'm not going to leave your side at a moment in need and with that being said if the FBI contact me I'll just tell them that you put me up to all of it well uh as Frank can tell you and I I've hosted you on on the what was my Wednesday show on tenant media probably four times now would have been on there tonight at no point was Frank ever directed to repeat only Russian talking points or something like that that is the allegation I suppose but Frank I'm going to go through this and obviously I intend okay so so let's just stop here I starting to mistrust him already that statement right there is [ __ ] [ __ ] that is actually a [ __ ] statement from this guy and I don't again I don't know who he is maybe he's always [ __ ] maybe he's actually [ __ ] but when this is the statement that you're making your your Steelman your your understanding is that they believe it is only Russian misinformation that's supposed to be pushed only Russian propaganda that's it no [ __ ] shot no shot you are that stupid that you think that's what the claim is no way you think the claim is only Russian misinformation Alex Alex Ramirez you got to calm down okay relax chill you got to cut it out simmer down over there all right come on sheesh already but yeah to to say only that is that is insane that is insane and uh I'm just kidding Alex I don't I don't even know what Nico is talking about I know I put it in the wrong chat Naomi so the the everybody understands anybody with like half a brain understands that they they're not going to do only Russian misinformation that the plan is for them to do the same dumb Trump talking points the same brain dead zombie like NPC like let's just say all the things that people who are trumpers want to hear us say and then mix in uh you know some sprinkles here and there of Russian misinformation let's just throw some Russian propaganda in there as well that's what the plan always is is if you just make a channel that is like all of that you're just going to appeal to like crazy Russian people that's it you're just going to like you're just going to get people from Russia watching you well done but if instead you are mostly doing the normal o [ __ ] Alex Jones [ __ ] and then just adding you know a little bit here and there that's that's the best way to kind of uh propagandize your own audience is to have like a base that you're focusing on to try to Swindle it's obviously going to be impossible for them to do that to liberals right so like we're all smart we're all like Geniuses we are uh not like anti- Academia or anything like that and so they're never going to try to do that to us but for Trump audiences so that's a really good place where it's going to be very easy to throw in some Russian propaganda with all of the other types of propaganda that's already being pushed so you know tend this to be somewhat conversational so please do chime in at any point with your thoughts or any questions you have about how how this all developed I don't know how long is going to go um also to the extent you want to send them we I will take super chats and Tim and I read through those uh when we're finished up tonight too but that's going to be it I'm not going to cover new stories otherwise because this is now such a big deal that obviously we're so smart we can't tell the difference between a boy and a girl that's really sad dude maybe one day I like if you uh watch some porn there's a great website that teaches you about this sort of stuff called PornHub that really help you out with that uh situation you got there Drew um I I had my parents had to talk with me when I was younger so I don't uh uh I don't know what what you got going on there but uh even like after that we had like Health classes and [ __ ] that kind of taught us about this stuff but um Good Luck was that issue it has to be addressed um now let me just start with how all of this started and I already described this on my own channel last November when I agreed to sign on to tenant media the way it happened was last late June early July my friend who I've known for a long time professionally and personally Lauren Chen came to me and said I've got a new media startup I think it's going to be awesome I'm interested in your content I'd like to host it uh could we work out an agreement for that to no Tom there's lots of weird stuff on that webs say no there's not this is normal human anatomy I watched right before I started stream a girl with a a like a a very beautiful white blonde uh Aryan looking woman with a massive black dick ramming it into another beautiful Aryan woman it is uh it's normal stuff to happen I said sure let's talk about it and over the course of a few weeks we came to an agreement obviously important to me and I hope anybody in this audience would trust and know first and foremost to me before anything was are you going to police what I say and before we talk about anything else are you going to police what I say no you're going to retain full editorial control not only that you can you can leave when you if it doesn't work out for you can leave all the terms were great and I would have never agreed to anything otherwise if they said we want you to come on to this platform and we want you to say A and C and not say x y and z uh thank you for your interest but I'm out that would have been the answer let me let me interject and ask you a question because I've only been you know on maybe three or four episodes the that the 20 to 30 minute segment on the first Wednesdays so I've never been really around for what happens afterwards are there commercial spots do you have to did you ever have to read a plug or anything like that when I had a conversation with Lauren and Liam her her husband they're running the company there was discussion potentially of future advertisement spots like that okay never happen it never materialized so no I I read super chats at the end of the show there are ads played on YouTube like any other channel or Rumble so then what are they paying for then that's what I want to know what are they paying for are they paying to take some of your content and put it on their channel are they paying to uh put it as part of their catalog on tenant media.com are they uh are they paying to get your subscribers are they paying for like what are they paying for I I want I need to know like what what is the deal then why are they paying you what is the what's the point in this cuz yeah so far I haven't heard like he's like oh yeah the deal was great oh yeah terms love the terms great terms what were the [ __ ] terms then I come on you're starting to sound like [ __ ] Steven Crowder over here just leaving out all the important details and that's all we want but there were no direct ad reads in that way Those ads played on YouTube afterwards that that's generated by the platform by YouTube itself yeah YouTube adds like any other channel okay so then there's that so no no don't say then there's that that doesn't no shut up okay let's go back here all right so what does does this guy have tenant ads added to his video well they do have their logo in the top corner and at the end I'm pretty sure we just watched a video from them recently actually I think that we might have watched the video of Andrew debating Tim and uh and the other guy recently about the Civil War stuff I think it was on tenant media so lots of these things are actually streamed live to their Channel yeah so he's literally streaming live to their channel on X as well but if you like to listen to your podcast you can listen to the show on all the various feeds where you may find your podcast all right what's here anyway he did noty as well Democrat senator now convicted at his corruption Tri do this guy interviewing anybody dead or Al Sunday line not between topic YouTube R take

Instagram at watch tenet for more great original content breaking news and viral videos before we get into all the assassination attempt talk quick update on a uh a recent guest or yeah does does he what is he does he not consider that an ad read what is he talking about he just did this he literally just [ __ ] did this [ __ ] what is he talking about he doesn't do ad reads for them is that was that a one-time thing tenant media for hosting follow them on X watch tenet now where you could watch the show right now and Instagram watch tenet for more great original content breaking news and viral videos now uh quick housekeeping update perhaps you saw on third what the hell what the [ __ ] is this guy talking about he doesn't do ad reads for them number one I never would have agreed to anything if anybody ever gave me a whiff of telling me what to say or what not to say it never happened if you don't believe me to the extent that my credibility or my reputation maybe damaged on that front number one compare my content go back to the material I was making before I moved it over to tenet look at the videos I've made on tenet compare them same with my streams is there anything different at all have I suddenly changed my opinion inexplicably in a protin way or something like that more serious this is going to make even more of a destiny simp he started saying this for for a bit now and I though it I thought it was a meme tiny always right wait I you have to be [ __ ] with me right now that you have to be [ __ ] with me right now short stack that has to be a this is going to make even more of a destiny simp he started saying I don't I don't know what any of that means dude I don't know what any of that means or what any of that was supposed to mean point one there was no influence exerted me over me in that way there's no change in my perspective or the nature of my content uh number two where's the doj's evidence that influence was exerted over me you won't find that in the indictment I'll get to some of those details in a moment because it doesn't exist it never happened they clearly had spies in our Discord server I'm in the Discord the tenant Discord server but I don't I don't think it was subpoena and I never received any kind of warrants or anything like that so clearly they're looking at everyone's communication where's the me why can't they produce the message that says they said to Matt you will promote Russia's interest oh you're telling me to make you more of a destiny simp I'm not a linguist yeah are you're telling me you want me to make you more of a destiny simp is that it's in the Ukrainian war and Matt said yes sir it never happened can you FOC find Focus for me at least on because I read a couple articles and it a lot of it is just Destiny has become a total spaz since his wife left him totally bad faith and really [ __ ] takes now I used to like Destiny I I promise you Destiny has not changed whatsoever since his wife left I I I can guarantee it Destiny has not changed in the slightest since his wife left so I I understand that there's tons of like right-wing media and like uh right-wing streamers who are all pissed off at him because he's uh he's being like uh a bit more like explicit with the some of the attacks but those are things that he did while he was with Molina as well um it's just that people are just more pissed off about it now than they were before so uh then what was the reason for his stupid takes all of the sudden Extreme as [ __ ] I'm telling you they're not they're not extreme I'm telling you these are the same these are the same takes he's always had these are the things that he's always said um you can go back to like him talking about January 6 and all this stuff a while ago you can go back to the way that he talked about trumpers a while ago you can go back to all these things they're not extreme these are all the same things uh Desy has always been a fairly extreme person he's always been banned from platforms and uh been somebody who is constantly pissing off both the right and the left um that is his entire brand is somebody who is constantly making extreme takes from a more uh you know Progressive to Liberal part of the spectrum so uh they're the same takes he's always had you're just more annoyed that he's attacking right-wing stuff instead of Lefty [ __ ] right exactly like he he has different times where he's focusing on different things okay his audience calls it a an an arc go back and look at his arcs he's always been the same person he's always been insanely extreme he's uh he's the guy who said uh you know that the right-wing militias have his permission to mow down dip [ __ ] protesters like this is that [ __ ] guy and you're sitting over here like oh my gosh he's extreme all of the sudden out of nowhere he's so extreme he's the guy who said that he thinks immigrants have a moral right to shoot uh to to commit like terrorist acts if people are trying to kick them out of the country that's Destiny that's him Destiny is the guy who says it's you know he's allowed to say the n-word and he had one of the most popular podcasts I believe the most popular podcast on Twitch where him and trihex two of uh two content creators in the top five content creators on Twitch did a podcast together his black friend trihex and then he got into a fight with trihex telling him that he's allowed to say the n-word and when trihex is literally crying saying you're my friend as my friend will you please just tell me you'll stop saying the nword Destiny said no I'm not I'm not going to bend on my principles because a friend asks me to if you ask me to bend on my principles you're not a real friend this is Destiny the guy who is just always been extreme this is who he has always been he has always been the extreme person with extreme takes it's just that you're upset that he happened to turn in your direction all of the sudden but these aren't new takes they're just being said a lot more often I get he has always been extreme but he has legit been more of a [ __ ] lately I actually used to like some of his left he takes but now I can't take him seriously okay I I don't know that there I like obviously Destiny and I are fairly close on the Spectrum he's a bit more Progressive than I am uh and where Saga was Peak Destiny it was I I think this is when I started watching him uh was over the NW thing I cuz yeah I I saw him as just this like crazy soy Lefty before that that was just really obnoxious and uh I think one of the first or second times I ever saw him was when he was debating Nick Fuentes and Sargon of aad and it was him and his son debating Nick and Sargon and I don't I I I would have to go back and watch it again to really figure out what my issues were there but I know that watching it I I became a fan of Nick quentes and Sargon watching Hassan and Destiny debate them like it just looked horrible it was it was not a good look for them at all at least from my perspective at the time I was a lot farther right at the time so it was um a different time in my life but I just know that yeah I they looked horrible um Destiny said he seriously considered murdering a child who was [ __ ] with his payroll this is part for the course right exactly like so when I say like me and Destiny are pretty close on the Spectrum I I him and I are going to agree on the majority of takes like the majority of things he says I'll agree with the majority of things I say he'll agree with like there we are just very close together yet your acting as though he's just so [ __ ] crazy now yet I can't think of anything that he's going to say that uh like like what is something that's super upsetting you that you think I would disagree with him on like I'm not [ __ ] crazy I'm not this insane extremist like Destiny you're you'll still watch me but not that [ __ ] crazy Destiny guy like what is the what's the big difference uh you always sounded conservative to me yeah but like leftists are people who believe that everybody's conservative to them so Tom Floy show abortion well obviously we disagree on abortion but that actually is something that Destiny's changed on uh more recently um not you who are you saying you two then Naomi Naomi is conservative yeah like Desy have had Destiny and I have had debates on abortion but like a while ago he was I think he held my position the one that I hold now um he was P like hardcore pro-choice then came to my position then left my position then came back to my position then left it again and it's kind of stayed there for a while so I think in first saying it wasn't an Insurrection then now saying it wasn't Insurrection and going nuts on it um okay this is actually like hurting my head I'm you're just mad that he's saying something that you disagree with but I I was asking for something horrible but you're just saying oh he said something that I liked one day and then he changed his mind and I don't like it when people change their mind to something I don't like but in this case he's saying something that like he he took a long time to research and educate himself on and like look up the history and all of that stuff and then came to the conclusion that it was an Insurrection I don't honestly I don't know why he ever said it wasn't an insurrection that was kind of wild that he would ever think it wasn't an Insurrection um I've said it was an Insurrection yeah but I I I'm but okay so then why why is this crazy to you then I don't understand you're you use that as your example of something that makes him someone that you don't respect anymore but his behavior okay well that's not what you said just a second ago you said your example a second ago was that at one point he said it wasn't then he said it was like how Wild he went about it I don't I I'm sorry I just I don't know what that means how Wild he went about it thank you for the gifted membership we have uh one from Saxon and one from Goan I think that's how you say it Goen Goan appreciate y'all gifting some memberships if anybody else wants to gift memberships they are super beneficial to the channel and um they help me as a content creator be able to do more things so we're supposed to be having some more in-person interviews over the next week and um the uh the we also have done a lot of on the street interviews in the past um memberships uh gifted memberships super chats stickers tips all of these things help the channel and give us uh more of an ability to do more things with the content um truly I would say me personally I don't know about you guys I like debates I like arguing with people I like getting into it with folks I would say my best content is interviews I would say that those are the things that people seem to enjoy the most they seem to enjoy me just having conversations with folks just having people on and having a chat and uh and those things normally cost money so the more money that's put into the channel the more capable I am of doing that sort of content more often um so yeah like even when we go through all these videos like you know having Carissa Avalon on for an interview um is one of the biggest videos at 3.6 th000 views um what's the oh this is my debate with Destiny and perspective philosophy on abortion um I don't know why the TTS isn't working again this is so annoying $20 in monies be linguist learn to read bad my grammar I'm working on it okay thank you short stack Goblin for the $20 in fake money appreciate it yeah most of like uh my most popular content is normally going to be interviews this is me having a conversation with Ben Thorp um about him being a groomer this is me having a conversation with uh Brianna woo about uh about lav this is me having a conversation with lav about Destiny this is me having a conversation with Destiny about lav and Mr girl this is me having a conversation with Mr girl about laugh and Destiny like these are all like my most popular videos and uh the things that seem to do the best out of all of my content and it's just yeah it seems to always be interviews um but being able to do interviews and being able to do content more often being able to do content earlier um I do other things throughout the day to be able to make money and the more money I make doing this the earlier I can get on and do streams at like 8:00 p.m. 700 p.m. and so yeah the the most that I was making on this channel the earlier I was streaming that's just uh how I've always been able to do it is I'm able to put more time into to content the more money that I'm making but yeah even this right here is me going out on the streets and talking to people about you know what's going on in media and uh asking questions about different things in the news and so these are uh things that I would like to be able to do more often and things that I think would be more beneficial for the channel so supporting the channel makes it to where we're able to do more things like this and talk to more people and uh go to more events um this is when I was at the dgg canvasing event and I was going out and interviewing people out there while I was there so yeah consider supporting the channel but the best way to support the channel is through tips so

be on this weekend as well for another interview as well Swedish Crona best money USD will tank for Russia thank you for another $20 in fake money short stack Goblin such a great name dude such a such a great name what was your name before shortstack Goblin what did you go before all right okay I we've gone past five minutes with this guy he hasn't mentioned much of this so actually let me play it just for a little bit just you know between the editorializing of Mer Garin and everybody else talking about uh essentially saying Donald Trump winning is is Putin's nominee Donald Trump is Putin's nominee if he wins so essentially anybody who is pro okay yeah this guy so far he seems to be dumb he seems to be strawmanning a lot of the claims and he seems to be offis skating a little bit which makes me wonder now he's probably already dumb like that part actually he may just be dumb it's possible but if he's not dumb he is playing some defense for this issue if he is not insane he is he is definitely playing defense for for Lauren and tennet to an extent so um yeah we'll we'll see what else he has to say here all the material I've ever created for tenant media I bet the Ukraine war maybe never even mentioned but if mentioned very briefly .1% talking about things that are in Russia's interest supposedly I guess if you think that Pro Amica is pro Putin and when I say that I mean like core constitutional found of as Lauren commented not that I've seen so the articles that we read said that they reached out for comment haven't heard back uh from what I understand she hasn't posted on social media about this yet we can check one more time um yeah no yeah no doesn't look like she said anything type stuff so yeah I guess if that aligns with Putin then I've been had can you tell me a little bit more about Lauren Chen and the money like like as far as when she comes to you and says all right we're starting a new Venture and all that stuff and we I want to get together some of my more high-powered friends or whatever so that there's a really nice Bullpen here and we can create a new sort of network yeah where does the like where does the money come from that has been traced to Russians she's not Russ she I don't know anything about her so where did this money come from that's a good that's a good transition point to get into the allegations uh but I just want to emphasize that for people who for whatever reason might not believe me that I didn't have full editorial control of everything I said consider the evidence okay I'll leave that point there you bring up the allegations the nature of the indictment okay so let's get into that as far as I understand the indictment and again this is breaking to me at about noon today so I've had time to go over it a little bit but this is not an area of legal expertise for me and you know all the appropriate qualifiers about how I'm not necessarily the guy most qualified to to analyze this but the allegations is generally this that the source of the funding comes from two Russian Nationals who are who are connected to RT as in Russia Today the uh the Russian State media outlet that you'll you'll see commonly and Lauren Chan I know that she's connected to to RT too you know it's not something that she and I have discussed but she appears on RT and you know they have a relationship okay the allegation is that these russan National supposedly laundered money to conceal I mean your Discord VC um it might be a while before I'm willing to take Callin I got to make sure that I go through all of this stuff before I start getting into calls so um I'm happy to maybe send you a DM once I get done going through everything but yeah I want to make sure that I have actually have a full idea and full picture of this stuff before I'm going to uh have conversations with people about it deal payments to the company that is tenant media for the purpose of a Russian propaganda operation or some kind of Russian lobbying so the crimes alleged number one would be money laundering in that Pursuit and number two would be failing to register as foreign agents okay I can't I can't tell you about how that money moved that's not my area of expertise okay I have a relationship with Lauren and Liam and tennet as far as where their business gets its money that is not my day-to-day operation you know I provide content for them under the terms of a contract as long as they don't tell me what to do we see eye to eye yeah but the problem is is that like and this is what I was saying earlier is that like you there are differences obviously between somebody just saying hey we want to pay you guys to possibly maybe do these stories or we want to pay you guys and we just want to be able to suggest stories for you to cover or something like that right there's a big difference between that and we're going to pay you guys to make sure these stories get covered I I have issues believing that the first one would be considered a a foreign agent the second one obviously is a foreign agent for sure 100% like no doubt the first one I don't know like just saying hey we want to make suggestions on content for you like that yeah that I'm not so sure of um so for those of you who just got here one of the things we did is what as we're going through the indictment they mention a story about a concert where the the Russians told them hey we want there was a the terrorist attack at this concert we want to blame the United States and Ukraine for this let's focus on that part of the story for a while I search through tenet's YouTube channel I don't see anything about it I search through Tim P's YouTube channel I don't see anything about it I searched through Lauren Chen's YouTube channel I don't see anything about it it is possible and even likely that they just took the content down but I I haven't seen the specific content and so I would need to know for sure that they are pushing this stuff now I know that Tim does have people on who push Russian propaganda so we did find that we did go over that I know that Lauren Chen pushes Russian misinformation I know that Candace Owens does but she's not part of this group uh so this is high Progressive they posted this clip they said wow suddenly Tim pool having takes like this makes way more sense they know it but I don't know that it matters anymore this is psychotic Ukraine is the enemy of this country Ukraine is our enemy being funded by the Democrats I will stress this again one of the greatest enemies of our nation right now is Ukraine they are expanding this war now don't get me wrong I know you've got criminal elements of the US government pushing them and guiding them and telling them what to do Ukraine is now accused a German warrant issued for blowing up the nordstream pipeline in triggering this conflict Ukraine is the greatest threat to this nation and to do you think it's said in the C in the in the script hit the table it says yo Ukraine is the enemy of this country Tim hits the table do you think think that was part of it the world we should resend all funding and financing pull out all military support and we should apologize to Russia they know it but I don't know that it matters anymore we'll see it again this is psychotic Ukraine is the enemy of this country see you can see he's looking down and he's reading the script right there you can see he's like he's talking he's talking very normally like he's talking very like calm and normally but I don't know that it matters anymore I don't know that it matters anymore but as you can see he reads and then Tim hits the table and he's like they are the enemy of this conflict they he like he immediately this is psychotic Ukraine is the enemy of this country see you hear how he says this is psychotic he's sounds like he's reading right am I crazy anymore this is psychotic you this is psychotic think he he's reading a [ __ ] I'm just kidding I'm just [ __ ] wrong but yeah this is uh he again we know that he does push Russian misinformation we know this we are all well aware he does this um there's other stories that like if you guys watch my channel enough uh we debunk crazy propaganda pushed regularly and Tim just the other day we went over one of his stories where uh he was talking about Joe Biden being uh you know in boots with Ukraine and that was this one right here where he's talking about Mark Zuckerberg and all this it it this story and I I don't think we went through it in that video but we went through it on the original stream um there's a specific person who is already known to have lied about the Ukraine story they made it up uh says FBI informant charged with lying about Joe and Hunter Biden's ties to Ukraine and Energy company not that one um crap the one where he like puts out the clip of Biden talking about like oh and I told him you're not getting this money unless you fire that prosec and gosh darn he was fired like that's that clip we know for a fact that was a a lie we know for a fact that that was like a a planned lie I just don't know if they had anything to do with the Russians but I wouldn't be I wouldn't be surprised um let's see CU yeah I got to find the specific one about him getting shoken fired uh it's true that Joe Biden leveraged 1 billion in Aid to persuade Ukraine to oust its top prosecutor Victor shoken in March 2016 but it wasn't because shoken was investigating barisma it was because shoken wasn't wasn't pursuing corruption among the country's politicians as European and American diplomats pressed Ukraine to clean up its corruption they focused on Shen's leadership of the prosecutor General's office which he took over in February of 2015 Mike Carpenter who served as a foreign policy advisor to then vice president told USA Today that shoken never went after any corrupt individuals at all and never prosecuted any high-profile cases of corruption Ki uh Charlie cchan who was Special Assistant to the President Barack Obama and a senior director the European Affairs on the National Security Council Council said that anti-corruption efforts were a big part of our diplomacy with Ukraine since it was that corruption that allowed Russia to manipulate the country's politically the country politically and economically as a result Biden leveraged 1 billion dollar in Aid as a stick to move Ukraine forward cupin said he was acting alongside our European allies everybody was of a single mind that this prosecutor was not the right guy for the job uh Daria colun co-founder and executive director of the anti-corruption action center in Kiev Ukraine credited Biden the international monetary fund which threatened to delay 40 billion in aid for similar reasons and others uh with the prosecutor's removal so yeah the EU the IMF and the United States were all in conjunction trying to get rid of shoken uh Simon Allen thank you for the five is it with five EUR out of chat but appreciate stream G thank you Simon Allen for the Dono let's go did I miss any others nope I'm on top of it today dude let's go dude I'm a [ __ ] G uh Civil Society organizations in Ukraine were pressing for his resignation uh konic said but no one would have cared if there had not been voices from the outside of this country calling on him to go after shoken left the prosecutor General's office Jan toiny the Ambassador let's see uh I'm going to try to find if they actually mention the person who made up the story in the first place investigations by the Press during impeachment and even by two Republican L Senate committees whose work was decried as not legitimate in political by a GOP colleague have all reached the same conclusion that Joe Biden carried out official US policy towards Ukraine and engaged in no wrongdoing Bates told USA Today yeah this is the thing that I have to keep explaining to people is that there's literally already been two investigations into what it is that happened in Ukraine between Biden and uh shoken and that they didn't just say uh we've found no wrongdoing they said Biden did no wrongdoing they they are clear that they are positive he did nothing wrong with that engagement yet it is still something that Tim P still repeats to this day Carin borisenko thinks it's the Jews yeah yeah it doesn't seem to be on this page but uh yeah anyways there like we know that somebody did make up that claim and um and he's even admitted to it I think it was him and his like partner or his brother or something like that um um but yeah it's still repeated to this day uh maybe maybe this is it uh so this is about the investigation that they did into shoken and where they found like all of the diamonds and all of the corruption all of the behind the scene deals where he was getting paid off to stop investigations the that I think they even found that he was paid by B isma to stop investigating them um which he did he he had stopped investigating them long before all of this uh poreno came with me to a clear request uh piskin pison insists that he never regretted hiring por shenko man assum e is it just me is KF spelled different all the time I feel like sometimes it's spelled k IE V and other times it's like KY V okay yeah it's not here either I don't know um okay back to the indictment chapter 6 in or about March 2022 following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 the European Union the United Kingdom and Canada banned broadcasting by RT that same month RT also seized its operations in the United States after major television Distributors dro the network but as RT itself has boasted despite its postm March 2022 bans on broadcasting and lack of formal distribution channels in the United States Canada and the United Kingdom sorry Canada the United Kingdom and the European Union the government of Russia continues to use RT to direct disinformation and propaganda at Western audiences for example on or about February 25th 24 RT's editorinchief declared during a Russian television appearance that public opinion in the west is changing very rapidly and very cheerfully due due in part to RT RT's editor-in-chief further explained that despite being banished everywhere on dece on February 25th referring to the start of Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February of 2022 RT had built an enormous Network in EMP an entire Empire of covert projects that is working with the public opinion bringing truth to Western audiences seven as set forth buo us company 1 is one of RT's covert operations in the United States background on certain individuals and entities uh Kash nikov the defendant is a citizen of Russia and an employee of RT T kosikov has identified himself as the deputy chief of the digital media projects department for RT is a member of an internal RT email distribution lists reserved for leaders at RT and manages multiple RT covert distribution channels in the United States including us company 1 as set forth below founder one introduced Kash to us company 1 employees and Affiliates as a purported outside editor and Kalashnikov edited us company One content without disclosing that he was working for RT Kalashnikov also participated in an internal us company One messaging group comprised solely of Kalashnikov founder one founder 2 and an individual purporting to act as a representative of us company one investor Edward rorian but who was in fact a fake persona persona 1 as described Below in that messaging group Kalashnikov monitored discussions of among other things us company W fundings hirings and contract negotiations with comment commentator 1 and commentator 2 okay so so this is the part that's confusing is that like we keep getting commentator one and commentator 2 these are people that I don't I don't think we've heard from yet I mean does anybody say that uh does anybody like because yes there are obviously people with direct content with the [ __ ] Russians and uh and who have been told about the Russians we've already gotten some parts where it says that they are uh that they're asking about like their their resumes and their their background and stuff like that but but from what we understand it seems as though commentator one is either Benny Johnson or Dave Ruben have either one of those guys commented on this yet cuz they they are the ones who are uh a little bit further off you just said it was a lie five minutes ago and now you just admitted it happened hold on Josie Josie damn I don't even know how to respond when you guys do [ __ ] like this like this is it gives me a [ __ ] migraine sometimes to actually try to like figure out where to start when you're that far off I what I what the the claim is that Joe Biden did something illegal and that it was collusion when he made the deal to get rid of uh of shoken I the clip that everybody shows of Joe Biden saying that he did that yes it's true he did that he did go and tell them to fire shoken that is true the fact that he did anything wrong there is a Lie the fact that he was covering for his son or for bisma is a Lie the fact that he was uh that this was uh quidd proquo is a lie that like those are the parts that are lies so you just saying oh well you admitted he did it yes country leaders make deals with country leaders country leaders make demands of country leaders we give money to countries sometimes we withhold that money unless they do XYZ of course I I don't know if you thought I was going to deny that our country makes demands of countries we give money to I don't know if you thought I was going to say no we've never told countries that you're not allowed to do this uh or that uh and that we're going to stop giving you money if you don't stop like of course countries do that there's nothing nothing wrong with that that's normal that's part of uh that's part of politics that's part of like global politics but you you just saying he wanted shok and fired yeah nobody's ever denied that nobody literally nobody has ever denied that it's the fact that he did nothing wrong when he did that that that was not Joe Biden didn't make that decision Joe Biden was not in charge of that Joe Biden is not the person who said I've decided they have to fire shoken I'm calling the shots here in the meeting they tell him you're not allowed to make those decisions and what does he say what does he say what does Joe Biden say call Obama call him pick up the phone and call him isn't that what Joe Biden says in the [ __ ] clip that you guys all play you guys all play the clip of Joe Biden saying pick up the phone and call call call Obama then he's saying yes Obama is the one who has approved this and Obama isn't allowed to make that decision either that's Congress approved Aid which means Congress has to approve this as well as other Foreign Affairs officials which have are in the article that I just read say that they did approve this and that this was part of their policiy and then it also says that the IMF the international monetary fund also wanted this as part of their uh uh negotiations for giving them Aid and so did the EU and then when we go through um the uh the corruption organizations within Ukraine they also said that they wanted shoken fired then when we go to French investigations on shoken where they show all of the Corruptions that they found all of the back uh back door Deals they we see that France also thought that he was corrupt and wanted him fired then when we go through the uh if you address me directly at least let me speak okay my bad I will I will not do that then um Elina aanes uh waya the defendant is a citizen of Russia an employee of RT identified as social media producer RT dealing with overseas Affairs news as set forth below Kalashnikov introduced uh what did they say Lena or aasa uh to us company one staff and contributors as a member of kalashnikov's editing team and FASA uh collected information from and gave direction to us company 1 Personnel on behalf of RT in that covert covert capacity aana Sia uh utilized multiple fake personas at us company 1 including Helena sudra and Victoria pesty part 10 founder one and founder two again this is uh this is Lauren Chen and her husband are foreign Nationals who reside in the United States I didn't know that wait where is Lauren Chen from oh she's born in Canada raised in Hong Kong okay huh that's interesting I I assumed that she was Asia or something but also Russians look very Asian sometimes so I I was starting to wonder maybe so you don't want any push back I'm replying to you because I don't mind the push back but as I said earlier I want to make sure that I take the time to go through all of this stuff before I get sidetracked onto a totally irrelevant conversation to what it is that we're talking about I was just talking about the fact that Tim pool is pushing um misinformation and that this is something that obviously benefits Russia but um that was just a side point I don't want to get stuck on that while I'm in the middle of this and as I said earlier then I'm happy to talk about these things and bring you on once I'm done with this but if you're saying oh I'm going to type a bunch of things in chat but if you respond to me then I have to be able to come on then yeah I would just then I'm just not going to respond to what you say in chat and I'll wait until later once I get done with this and then if you're around then I'll bring you on and talk but yeah I can't stop every time somebody wants to push back to bring them on each and every single time if I'm trying to get through a very long document but I do I I I am happy to have the conversation for sure I just yeah just not right now um so yeah this says they are foreign Nationals who reside in the United States founder one and founder 2 joint control uh jointly control and operate us company 1 and they are only authorized signatories for us company 1 business checking account us company 1 bank account which is held at a bank in the United States before operating us company 1 for RT as set forth below founder one and founder two work directly for RT and its Affiliates including as follows uh from from in or about March 2021 to in or about February 2022 founder one created videos posted social media content and wrote articles pursuant to a written contract between founder one Canadian company Canadian company 1 and RT's parent organization anot TV novosti whoa I don't know who that is uh this content generally consisted of English language social commentary T directly published some of founder one's paid workor while founder one posted other founder one's paid work for founder one's personal accounts without uh attribution to RT for example founder one's invoice reflect that founder one build anot TV noting for approximately 2117 videos of of which approximately 209 were published on Founder one's personal YouTube channel founder one also wrote approximately 25 opinion articles that were published on RT's website at least 19 of which founder one build to anot TV noos none of founder one's articles disclose that founder one was paid by RT to write them so I don't think founder one is laen Chen I think she's got to be founder too then cuz oh dang so Senate select committee on intelligence okay they just reposted the same thing huh yeah I was hoping I could find her on their thing so wait who is Lauren Chen married to William Donovan okay William Donovan what was the name of that thing again that I just looked up uh o TV noos I keep thinking o every sing single time founder one is Chen no doubt they said Chen started posting social media in 2021 I I don't think that's Chen I think she's found her to cuz I would assume this guy was the one who started in 2021 um is there a good argument for foreign propaganda being way worse than domestic yeah well again it's not just foreign in general it's not just from anybody foreign it's foreign from a country right so there's like actual political reasoning in what it is that they're doing there's actual like uh there's actual like a manipulation tactics put into what it is they're attempting to achieve and and they don't have like somebody who lives here if they lie and say things that are untrue and they so descent into country and the politics they live here they have to deal with the consequences of that they have to actually if there's a civil war if there's a [ __ ] um if there's like a you know um if there's lawsuits to be had if there's somebody who wants to to uh claim that they're like uh ruining their reputation or like there's you know there's legal processes for them but if it's just somebody from outside they don't have to deal with any of the consequences they're [ __ ] good they're able to say whatever the [ __ ] they want and they're able to mislead people as much as possible and there's no no negative consequence so whether you just [ __ ] up our entire government by saying that there's like um uh fake ballots all over the place and that the election was stolen for Donald Trump like okay like you can say that but you're [ __ ] up your own country by saying this [ __ ] so I uh I don't know why you would want to do that but like fine fair enough but then yes if it's if you're doing it from Russia well now yeah like now you're you're doing it on behalf of like another government who's who benefits from our demise and from benefits from us getting in trouble so let's see what is Liam Donovan saying um so we retweeted this about white people it says so much about our current political era that the only time that white Americans are allowed to organize as white Americans is in support of an anti-white Dei candidate this will not not surprise anyone who read my book this is from mint white women for Camala Harris raises Millions as Zoom just broke a record with 131,000 calls today yeah I mean I had a couple of conversations last night with people about the fact that this is kind of like I would say that Kamal Harris is like colloquially known as a Dei candidate for for vice president I don't mind saying that I don't mind people saying it like in general it's not a horrible thing to say um it makes sense in some sort of context sure but she can't be a Dei presidential pick that doesn't make sense that literally makes no sense whatsoever so yeah if you go back to the the stream yesterday we got into this pretty deeply and like kind of went over why that just literally cannot be the case but uh yeah here's him retweeting tenant media over and over able to make every single solitary person eligible for what I've been able to do with the uh with with with the co excuse me with um dealing with everything we have to do with uh look if we finally beat Medicare thank you President Biden president Trump oh my goodness um yeah he doesn't tweet very much I mean that's the third tweet down and this is from June 27th so he doesn't tweet very often but I don't see I don't see anywhere where he specifically is associated with them so I was hoping for like a website or something that had his content on there uh to create content for RT pursuant founder one written contract founder one worked with founder 2 and two individual producers producer one and producer 2 who later joined us company 1 RT invited founder one to appear on RT tele programming created a dedicated page on RT's website identifying founder one as a contributor and featuring founder 1's articles and provided an official letter on RT's letterhead designing or sorry designating founder one and founder two as essential workers during the covid-19 pandemic what in private correspondence however founder one and founder two recognize that truthfully disclosing their affiliation with rt made it more difficult for them to do business in the United States for example in July of 2021 emailing uh email inviting a contact to apply for a job with rt Bounder one wrote that RT's budget is going to be larger but acknowledged I know being Russian some folks in the US aren't too hot on them lol as another example in private exchanges on the messaging platform Discord in February of 2022 producer 1 told founder 2 that when I was asking people if they wanted uh to interview many said yes until I said I was with rt so I switched to saying I was just working for founder one founder two replied haha no surprise uh in their private correspondence while working directly for RT pursuant to founder one's written contract founder one and founder 2 regularly referred to their sponsor ieer t as the Russians for example on or about May 12th 2021 founder 2 messaged founder one on Discord so we're billing the Russians from the corporation right on or about May 22nd 2021 founder one message founder 2 on Discord also the Russians paid so we're good to build them for the second month I guess on or about June 2nd 2021 founder 1 messaged founder 2 on disc scored also I say we build the Russians for the last month once we're done uh once we're done the extra op EDS referring to founder one paid opinion article for RT and honor of about January 5th 2022 founder 2 messaged an acquaintance on Discord about paid leave that the Russians had offered the founder one was she pregnant in 201 22 I think she was so that's why she's talking about a PID leave um oh wait no okay so they offered the paid leave to founder one okay so maybe that is so maybe founder one is Lauren Chen but that makes it make a little bit less since not sure okay uh from in or about October 2021 to in or about May 22nd 20 or sorry May 2022 separate and apart from founder 1's contract with RT's parent organization aotv noos uh founder 2 also worked directly for RT and with ruply gmbh RT's German subsidiary founder tu's p Fe work for RT included among other things preparing English language uh text messages describing news events during this time founder 2 and uh Kalashnikov appear to have had overlapping business contacts honor about May 18th 2022 a raply gmbh employee sent a Russian language email to six recipients including founder 2 and Kalashnikov requesting that they send their work email address to gain account access to reply's website part 11 us company 1 is a United States Corporation established under the laws of Tennessee founder one is described us company 1 as the US subsidiary of founder ones Canadian company ooh wait what was the what was the what's the company that what's the company that laurren used to work for with Glenn Beck what was that one cuz I I used to I wonder if they're Associated The Blaze so is that the blaze as set forth above from in or about March 2021 to in about February of 2022 founder one and use Canadian company one to produce current or sorry content or RT pursuant to a written contract founder one Incorporated us company 1 on or about January 19th 2022 and applied with the Tennessee Department of uh state to transact business under its current operating name which company one uses and its website and social media channels on about May 2022 2023 on its website us company1 describes itself as a network of header dox commentators okay hold on um who is in it Canadian parent company cubler Hubler business hub sorry I just put tenant I should have put tenant Medias Eric Toler and the Canadian Anthony that owns penet media a new doj indictment alleges that RT employees covertly funded and directed a US company with $10 million in order to push pro-russia content the company is based in Tennessee there is one media company based in Tennessee with the same phrase listed in the indictment and the Canadian entity that owns tenant media here is the Canadian entity roaming Millennial Incorporated wow so for those of you who don't know you don't know how like you don't have a whole lot of the lore on this uh Lauren Chen when she first got onto YouTube and first started creating content she was known as roaming millennial that was uh that was Chen's original name so if we look up roaming Millennial we we get Lauren Chen they are the same person she I think she changed her name about four years ago three years ago something like that um to La chin um oh yeah and then she also used to be pseudo intellectual uh or that was like the name of her podcast pseudo intellectuals then also media holics um so yeah these are a bunch of different channels that she has where she does different types of content about different things I don't think she does pseudo intellectual anymore this says it's a TV program I thought it was a podcast pseudo intellectual for Blaze TV yeah it is a podcast I guess maybe they put it on television in Canada but I remember no yeah they put out an episode a month ago and this is her talking to Andrew Wilson on pseudo intellectual I mean Lauren chenon has been somebody that from my perspective has gone back and forth on how far right she is there's periods where she seems to even out and be a little bit more reasonable but uh yeah during the like research for the uh Candace Owens documentary we found her saying this which was kind of of uh tacit defense of Nazis and Candace Owens like dog whistling about Nazis [Music] true he also accused Candace Owens of some pretty terrible things dog whistling that Hitler was okay uh just because she did a segment about Nazi book burning and a lot of people don't know that actually the the Nazis were burning like LGBT and socialist books uh which I'm not for for book bort burning but it's kind of interesting there that oh she is so she does this all the time I mean I'm not like you know not saying not saying Nazis are good or anything I'm not saying they're great people but faces D pet his dog in saying who's a good girl who's a a good girl yes you're a good girl aren't you yes you are yes you are your daddy's little good girl aren't you he did that so I just think that's interesting I just the history books don't tell you about that that Hitler did that he also true it's true I didn't learn that in school I don't know about you guys but I I yeah they didn't tell me about that um founder one Incorporated us company one in or about January 19th 2022 and applied with the Tennessee Department of State to transact business under its current operating name which company one uses on its website and social media channels on or about May 22nd 2023 on its website us company 1 describes itself as a network of heterodox commentators that focus on Western political and cultural issues and identify six commentators including commentator 1 and commentator 2 as its talent in quotations yeah we did uh we did find those quotes right here on the tenant website uh where it has the heterodox commentators Quote us company 1 regularly posts videos featuring these commentators as well as other videos that do not feature the commentators across an array of social media channels including YouTube Tik Tok x Facebook Instagram and Rumble let me see if anybody else figured out who commentator 1 and commentator 2 are CU those two seem to be the most important ones uh for [Music] people for people reading the indictment some of the unnamed commentators are becoming clear commentator one is Dave ribbon commentator two Tim P commentator three unclear commentator four Warren Southern commentator five unclear commentator six Matt Christensen okay that leaves Benny Johnson in Taylor Hensen un assigned okay so when I say the the most important ones seem to be commentator 1 and commentator 2 it's pretty obvious why now it's Dave ruin and Tim pool so earlier they were saying that one of the commentators seemed to be getting a little sketched out about this like fake person that they were saying was funding all of their stuff and was supposedly the one giving them all the money to to do this stuff and they yeah he said they said that commentator 1 was the person who was asking a lot of questions who wanted to see their resume who wanted to meet them who wanted to like get more information about them that's Dave Rubin so Dave Rubin seems to be a bit more honest than the rest somehow uh uh to support the production and publications of its videos you company one employees three staff producers producer one producer two and a third individual producer 3 and a purported out outside editing firm staffed by among others Kalashnikov and AA background on the foreign agents registration act the foreign agents registration act far so this is uh what um somebody was asking about earlier where they were saying like why would foreign agents be worse than uh local agents um this is the part where they kind of talk about the aspects that are illegal here um so act F22 USC uh 611 it uh is a registration and disclosure statute that requires any person acting or agreeing to act in the United States as an agent agent of foreign principle to register with the attorney general if he or she is engaging or agreeing to engage directly or through another person in certain types of conduct for or in the interest of the foreign uh the foreign principle conduct requiring registration under F includes as is relevant here political activities acting as a public uh a publicity agent or information Service employee and dis uh dispersing money for or in the interest of foreign principal F registrations are made to the foreign agents registration act unit of the Department of Justice's National Security division it is a crime to willfully failed to register when required under far so I would assume the argument from the lawyer here would be that there are um the there are enough people to disconnect them from the Kremlin to where they don't feel like they are directly working for the Kremlin nobody who works in the Kremlin is calling them so there's not a direct line to a foreign agency there is the Kremlin who pays people at RT the people at RT happen to distribute uh uh propaganda for the Kremlin at RT then other people who happen to be paid for RT are out doing their own business who are paying tenant there are what what what do I'm blanking on the phrase here but there's like a lines of disconnection or I'm I can't think of the word um but it's yeah pretty much like there's a there's a bunch of different Parts to where they are not directly communicating with the Kremlin there's there's four lines of communication that they have to go through lines of Separation I think that's what it said yeah so there's four lines of Separation that disconnect them from the Kremlin to the point where they maybe could argue that yeah they're not working for any foreign agencies they're not uh yeah Degrees of Separation yeah the which actually is like questionable right like it actually it is a thing that makes you question okay so let's say what's say me personally I choose to work for China I I'm going to work for China and I'm going to do uh a disinformation campaign for China and while I'm doing that I have uh uh Freddy as one of my moderators and Freddy is is going and he'll post my content around and POS in different Discord and let people know that I'm streaming and tell people to hit the like button and he does all this stuff right so Freddy then also goes to uh a kidna kins chat and when Freddy goes to kidna kins chat Freddy will sometimes uh hear stories that I'm talking about here and he will recommend them to kidna K as well and he'll say hey there's a story is actually interesting you should you should check it out and he'll tell kid not kin about those sometimes and so now kid not kin happens to be doing this but sometimes those stories may be some of the China misinformation or propaganda stories that I'm getting paid to do but now would we say that kid not kin can get in trouble for working for China now let's say Freddy pays kidna in to cover those stories I don't know it makes it a little bit more difficult but I would I would like they did talk about the line of emails and like the communication kind of coming from the Kremlin to RT and then these people are part of like email chains where this is being distributed and then those people are telling Lauren Chen and her people what to do and the question would be well why would those people pay anybody right why would they ever pay someone to to post these stories why would they care why are they so invested in Russian politics or Russian propaganda that they're willing to pay uh a Us Media company to tell those specific stories well they wouldn't be they wouldn't be like unless we find some other benefit that they get from these specific stories that they're pushing they wouldn't be they have to be getting the money directly from the Kremlin and I think that they'll probably get into that soon that like they've traced the money back to the Kremlin and that they know that they're getting the money from the Kremlin to give to tenant but um but yeah there's like there there's just no even without them finding the you know the trail of money I I don't know there's just no way that they would be able to explain it yeah they did say that there was money laundering involved as well so I suppose that could be it but most of this seems to talk about their connections to Russia and like the propaganda rather than the money laundering so far but yeah we'll we'll see um the purpose of far is to prevent covert influence by foreign principles which include foreign governments companies and persons located outside the United States proper registrations under far allows the US government and public private audiences to evaluate the statements and activities of individuals who are serving as agents of foreign principles in light of their status as foreign agents among other things far registration reveals the identity of the foreign principal on whose behalf the registrant performs Services the type of services the registrant provides the foreign principal and the source and amount compensation the registrant receives from the foreign principal far registration uh statements are publicly accessible on the website of the far unit in addition far registrants are required to label information materials transmitted with within the United States with a conspicuous statement disclosing that the materials are distributed by the agent on behalf of the foreign principal RT's covert operation through US company 1 okay so I believe this is probably where they'll get to what we were just talking about 14 in or about December 2022 founder one began working with an individual operating on the fictitious name Edward Gregorian and three purported represent representatives of Edward Gregorian uh Persona 1 and two additional purported Representatives Persona 2 and Persona 3 to launch a new YouTube channel initially under the name Viewpoint Productions on or about January 10th 2022 Persona 2 told founder 1 that founder one that founder one's first task was to find a personality that could serve as as the face of the channel and that for the right candidate we're willing to pay around 1 to2 million per year onor about January 13 2023 Persona 2 sent founder 1 a proposed contract for founder one's influen or Talent scouting services with the founder one listed as the agent and Hungarian entity Hungarian shell entity listed as the client okay so let's let's see Viewpoint Productions for [Music] [Music] video okay so I don't know that this is the right channel but but the fact that they have a video about the Cold War makes me uh makes me wonder if we found the right one East Anglia was part of the front line during the Cold War at a region of high activity in the defense of the UK and the rest of the Western World it was proliferated with British and American air bases and beneath the surface there were Secret buers and installations monitoring and managing the Western cold war effort join us as we follow a cold war trail of mysterious wartime infrastructure and meet some of the people who played a crucial role during this uncertain period in world history from The Who defended our skies and could be ordered to drop a nuclear weapon at a moment's notice I didn't like the idea of it but I was certainly going to do it this is Cold War East Anglia the front line the body it was very very good for okay yeah I don't think this is it you point production 935 nope I don't think this is it supposedly this guy's like Mantra is free speech so I type in free speech we should find them yeah they don't have anything posted this is from a year ago so this is about the time I think they were talking about doing this um yep January 10th 2023 and when was this posted January 9th 2023 let's [ __ ] go I'm a [ __ ] investigator and a half over here dude what the [ __ ] that doj should have hired me to do this [ __ ] all right um onor about January 13 2023 Persona 2 sent founder one a proposed contract for founder one's influencer Talent scouting services with founder one listed as the agent and Hungarian entity Hungarian shell entity one listed as the client Hungarian shell entity one has no publicly available website in exchange for founder one Services the proposed contract awarded founder one $8,000 per month plus a percentage of any deals that founder one closed with influencers over the next several months while founder one continued to negotiate founder 1's contract founder one accepted interim wait hold on did y did y'all catch that as well in exchange wait hold on in exchange for founder one's Services the proposed contract awarded founder one 8,000 per month over the next several month months while founder one continued to negotiate founder one's contract founder one accepted interim payments okay so founder one is negotiating with Persona one okay Gregorian accepted interim payments and began to scout for influencers for the new YouTube channel for Edward GRE Gregorian uh beginning in or about February 2023 founder one solicited commentator 1 and commentator 2 to perform work on behalf of Edward Gregorian for example a on or about February 6 2023 Persona 1 emailed founder one a short list of candidates for the YouTube channel including commentator 1 commentator 2 in the same email Persona one attached a receipt for an $8,000 money transfer from entity in the Czech Republic Czech shell entity one to the founders to founder one's Canadian company Canadian company 1 Persona 1 requested that founder one submit an invoice for founder 1's Consultation Services to check shell entity one which Persona 1 described as our check system company Czech shell uh entity has a website reporting to sell automobile parts but also listing unrelated Services cyber armor Suite fortifying your digital defenses the website makes no mention of Edward Gregorian Persona 1 Persona 2 Persona 3 Viewpoint Productions or Hungarian shell entity one on or about February 6 2023 founder one responded to to Persona 2 the founder one had what founder two who I work with and who handles finances know to get an invoice done founder 2 subsequently uh prepared an invoice from Canadian company 1 to check shell entity one which found which founder two transmitted to founder one and which founder one then emailed to Persona 1 in founder 1's February 6 2023 response to Persona 1 founder one also advised that founder one had reached out to commentator 1 and will'll be speaking with him today okay so this might be why this might be why because commentator one is Dave Rubin so this is likely why Dave Rubin was starting to become so earlier I was saying that it seemed as though he was becoming a bit more skeptical and that this made him seem more honest but now if he if they're trying to start a new YouTube channel where he's working directly for uh founder one or sorry Persona one obviously he's going to want to know who Persona one is so this is actually I take back what I said it doesn't seem to make Dave ruin all that more honest anymore um with respect to commentator 2 co- or sorry founder one cautioned that a contract would likely cost well over 2 million a year the next day on or about February 7th 2023 Persona 1 responded that Mr Gregorian misspelling the name of persona 1's purported employee Edward Gregorian was okay with over two million as long as we get the right person on board under the right conditions founder one agreed to contact commentator 2 as well which is Tim pool on or about February 8th 2023 founder one purported to be Persona 1 on Founder 1's Outreach to commentator 1 and commentator 2 founder one advised that commentator 1 said it would need to be closer to 5 million a year uh for him to be interested and the commentator to said it would take 100K per weekly episode to make it worth his while founder one cautioned that from a profitability standpoint it would be very hard for Viewpoint I.E the initial public facing facing name of the new venture to recoup its costs for the likes of commentator 1 and commentator 2 based on ad revenue from we web traffic or sponsors alone despite founder one's warning that commentator 1 and commentator 2 would not be profitable to employ on or about February 14th 2023 Persona 1 informed founder 1 that we would love to move forward with commentator 1 and commentator 2 so yeah so they're not actually looking to make money on this they're looking to spread propaganda they don't care if they're not making money they're they're not in this to make money they're in here to to spread propaganda and they want the biggest name possible to spread it so they get it out to the most amount of people honor about February 17th 2023 founder one sent an email introducing commentator 2 to Edward Gregorian Persona 1 and Persona 2 the parties's arranged a call between commentator 2 and Edward Gregorian which took place on or about February 22nd 2023 in scheduling the call commentator 2 requested that Edward Gregorian call commentator 2 cell phone instead Persona 2 asked to take the call uh ask that he call sorry ask that the call take place on WhatsApp or Zoom both yeah because they're they're one encrypted and two it's not going to cost money for long distance calling if you do it over the Internet um yeah which makes it to where like uh it's yeah just going to be a lot safer that way um both applications offered encrypted communication and the ability to place voice calls through voice over IP technology capable of confiscating the physical location of a caller e on or about February 22nd founder one emailed Persona one that founder one had spoken to commentator 2 who was happy with the licensing Arrangement that was discussed on commentator 2's call with Edward Gregorian founder one continued however that commentator 2 still would like to know more about the company and who he will be working with founder one added that founder one had a assured commentator 2 that as we finalize the contract and begin working to put his show together and coordinate the launch everyone will have time to get to know each other better as and feel less like strangers on or about February 28th 2023 founder one emailed Persona 1 that founder one had spoken with commentator one who would like some material about Gregorian to learn a bit about who commentator 1 would be working with founder one asked if there were any links press link uh press release interviews this is so hard to read because they're not able to use like any uh pronouns or anything to give away like any details about the person and so instead of just saying he you know uh commentator one wanted to know who he would be working with or who she would be working with they could say they but they're not doing that either they just keep repeating commentator 1 commentator one asked who commentator one would possibly be working with if commentator one were to do with a show with commentator to like and it's just yeah it's really it's really annoying other one asked if there were any links press uh release interviews LinkedIn profiles uh can we forward commentator one about Edward Gregorian on or about March 2nd 2023 Persona 1 responded to founder one's email writing that persona one was unsure that Mr Gregorian gave out any public interviews but you could send commentator 1 our Linkin page with a hyperlink to a LinkedIn page for Viewpoint Productions Persona 1 also attached a receipt for another $8,000 money transfer from cheze Shell entity one to Canadian company 1 G on or about April 21st 2023 and again on or about April 24th 2023 founder 1 performed Google searches for Edward Gregorian and for Bank One Edward Gregorian as of in or about August 2024 neither Google search returns uh neither Google search returns any results for a person by that name much less any webpage describing in Edward Gregorian as a finance professional affiliate with bank one on or a bit about uh April 24th 2023 founder one emailed Persona one that commentator one was really insisting on seeing some material profile article or whatever on Edward before commentator 1 feels comfortable moving forward is there anything we can provide commentator 1 with Persona 1 responded that will send you a profile on Mr Gregorian that you could send over to commentator 1 on or about May 4th 2023 Persona 1 emailed founder one the CV to provide commentator 1 that profile is reproduced with redactions and blurring below wow is a bachelor's degree in economics and management at blank come loud based we are all about coming loud Edward Gregorian experienced Finance professional and investor deeply engaged in business and philanthropy leveraging skills and resources to drive positive impact supporting a range of organizations worldwide with a dynamic presence mainly in Brussels and London engaging in personal and professional Pursuits in each location with a focus on poverty alleviation uh championing free speech and advocating for social justice causes H you can't say you can't say social justice on here dude what is your problem bro what are you thinking um let's see as an accomplished Finance professional Mr Gregorian has observed multiple instances of misrepresentation and bias in mainstream media many of which they didn't put a comma or they didn't put a space after their comma here there's a [ __ ] up there many of which had the potential tour suit into poor investment outcomes of his clients with extensive experience of living and immersing himself in various cultures he has acquired a distinctive and alternative perspective on world events that he believes is not always accurately represented to the public in pursuit of his goal to encourage a more nuanced public discourse worldwide Mr Gregorian intends to establish a conservative news outlet that offers expertise and experience for a wide audience in Western World and Beyond uh Bank one's affiliate in the United States has no record of an Edward Gregorian ever being employed by bank one nor as set forth above do Google searches for Bank One Edward Gregorian yield any results for person by for a person by that name other irregularities in founder one's email correspondents further signaled that Edward Gregorian and his purported Representatives Persona 1 through Persona 3 were all fake personas for example by on or about February 16th 2023 Persona 1 had misspelled the surname of his purported boss as Gregorian or Gregorian rather than Gregorian in at least four separate emails to founder 1 on or about February 10th 2023 Persona 3 sent an email to a potential influencer copying founder one and signed the email as Edward Gregorian rather than as Persona 3 after the email recipient expressed confusion as to whether the sender was Edward Gregorian or Persona 3 Persona 3 quickly responded in part Edward forwarded his email to me and asked me to replay sick on his [Applause] behalf digital forensic evidence further confirms that Edward Gregorian and Persona 1 through Persona 3 the various investor personas were in truth and in fact the same individual for example on approximately 39 occasions between in or about about November 20 uh 2023 in or about July 2024 email accounts used by Edward Gregorian and Persona one to communicate with founder one were accessed from the same Internet Protocol IP address at or around the same time as another example on or about January 10th 2023 Persona 1 emailed the text of a draft email to Persona 2 which Persona 2 then pasted into a new email and sent to founder one from Persona 2's email account so it doesn't show I I don't see anything about founder one and founder two having any questions about any of this they don't seem to see any of these red flags they don't seem to think this is confusing but but commentator one and two do they have issues with this so it seems like yeah they're they don't know anything about this they're not they're not in on the take they have uh they have no idea what's going on but Lauren Chen and her husband no exactly what's going on they know this person they know it's that person pretending to be three different people they are so [ __ ] dude they are so [ __ ] like they're [ __ ] Candace Owens is gonna come out and just be like haha I didn't even need them to pay me [ __ ] I said it anyways and I'm still not getting arrested suck it and ajw THS BFF got help from Lauren for funding too oo so where there's two commentators that are kind of missing no actually we know who those two are never mind uh founder one transmitted the Ed Edward Gregorian profile the commentator 1 to persuade commentator one to perform work on behalf of Edward Gregorian I'm just going to stop reading that last name it's hard for me to pronounce on or about May 12th 2023 founder one reported to Persona 1 that commentator one had a problem with the profile we sent over specifically the reference to social justice I think it may be because that's usually a term used by liberals but we're trying to create a conservative Network founder one suggested that commentator one and Edward could simply speak together to clarify the profile on June 2nd 2023 Edward circulated an email to founder one and commentator 1's assistant scheduling a zoom meeting for 5:00 Paris that day in Prior email correspondence founder one represented to another potential commentator that Edward was based in Paris at approximately 8:58 a.m. Central Time that day Edward replies to his earlier email I am there guys the time in fact was 3:58 p.m. in Paris but it was 458 in Moscow approximately 2 minutes later Edward performed a Google search for the Paris for the time in Paris Edward then replied again to his email in in part sorry wrong hour didn't sync the calendar after further negotiations in which founder two also participated founder one and the purported representatives of Edwards secured contracts with commentator 1 and commentator 2 specifically damn they got them they [ __ ] got them so timp and Dave ruin both [ __ ] signed contracts with the Russians [Music] dude what the [ __ ] commentator 1's contract which was between commentator 1's production company and US company 1 provided for four weekly videos to be hosted by commentator 1 and live streamed by us company in exchange for a monthly fee of $400,000 plus 1,000 100,000 in signing bonus and an additional performance bonus commentator 1's production company agreed that and any and all content create created under this agreement shall be property of us company 1 commentator 2's contract which was between commentator 2's production company and US company 1 provided for weekly videos to be hosted by commentator 2 and live streamed by us company 1 in exchange for a fee of $100,000 per video commentator 2's production company granted us company 1 a non-exclusive non-transferable license during the applicable license term to display transmit and distribute the licensed content in her about mid 2023 as founder one worked to recruit commentator 1 and commentator 2 to perform work on behalf of Edward Gregorian founder one began negotiating an expanded role for founder 1 and founder 2 and US company one in their developing Enterprise as set forth Below on or about March 31st 2023 Persona 1 emailed founder one a draft of the new contract that we would like to offer Persona 1 described the new contract as consisting of two stages the pre Talent signing where you scope of the work is similar now and the post Talent signing which is after we sign commentator 2 and commentator 1 with your help Persona 1 advised that the scope of your work will grow substantially to include managing the channel in the post post Talent signing phase with new areas of responsibility and our new offered compensation in a subsequent email on or about April 14 2023 Persona 1 informed founder one that the management and marketing for the new platform social media accounts would be done by the Russian firm we agreed to hire but you will of course be the CEO and set working standard and path for them to follow and possibly you could hire a few more people from your side to further handle the operational side of things on or about April 17th 2023 founder one replied in part that founder 1 was happy to work with the Russian firm as set forth below this Russian firm consisted of coll nikov and AA who later monitored and directed us company 1's activities under the guys of an outside editing firm founder two worked closely with founder one to negotiate their expanded business arrangement with Edward Gregorian for example in private messages on Discord on or about April 28th 2023 founder 2 messaged founder one that they I.E the investors also have full rights to the IP and so if we grow the platform they can still technically take it away founder one replied to the French clarified wait founder one replied that the French clarified that we own the channel but they own the rights to the content and so in the event of a split I think we'd either need to pay them out for the rights or remove the videos but we'd keep the platform IE us company one 24 founder 2 also helped founder one recruit additional commentators to work for us company 1 and Edward for example uh or sorry and Edward for example on or about May 22nd 2023 founder 1 messaged founder 2 on Discord that founder 1 needed to send a um needed to send a prospectus for the company to a potential commentator commentator 3 founder 2 responded with the proposed talking points for the prospectus and added though I think we should probably borrow some of gregorian's language here commentator 3 later agreed to work for us company one okay wait so does this later turn into tenant because earlier when they were talking about the the channel viewpoints they were saying the original name of it was viewpoints and that this is what they wanted them to host and that this was the original agreed upon platform but it sounds like they just turned it into tenant later company one is tenant I'm sure yeah that's what I thought too um uh uh on its website ten media describes itself as a network blah blah blah ten media creates and post conservative content yada yada it appears tenant media was created by Lauren Chen a Canadian born YouTuber and blogger and a man named Liam Donovan who appears to be her husband based on information from several sources Donovan ident identifies himself as the president of tenant media in his bio on X and as Chen's husband in his bio on Instagram was incorporated in Tennessee on January 19th 2022 okay so yeah so this is already created okay uh I think we should borrow some of gregorian's language here commentator 3 agreed to work for us company 1 on about May 12th 2023 founder one sent an email to Persona 1 in which founder one proposed that we keep the contracts the contract between us with my Canadian company but for commentator 2's contract it will be through our American subsidiary us company 1 in a subsequent email onor about May 19th 2023 founder one explained that founder one wished for my personal payment to be under Canadian uh company 1 but the payments for the influencers to go directly to us company one on or about June 13 2023 consistent with founder 1's proposal Persona 1 emailed founder one in a final service agreement that named founder 1 Canadian company 1 and US company 1 as the service providers the contract provided for a monthly fee of $88,000 for first stage a monthly fee of $25,000 per month for the second stage after signing commentator 1 and commentator 2 and additional performance incentives and commissions for engagements closed with talents the client named on the contract was neither Edward nor Hungarian shell company nor Czech shell company but rather an anony based in the United Kingdom UK shell company one that has no webs s after forwarding the contract to founder 2 And discussing it with founder 2 on Discord founder one signed the contract so

Affiliates as an outside editor hired by us company On's investor in this role Kash nikov monitored us company 1's internal Communications and edited content published by us company 1 without disclosing that he was an RT employee Kalashnikov also introduced his fellow RT employee aun sea to provide additional day-to-day direction to us company one employees and commentators as set forth

introducing Kalashnikov as an editor for example on or about August 7th 2023 founder one created a Discord channel for the production of videos by one of the six commentators listed on us company 1's website commentator 4 and told commentator 4 that Kash nikov is heading up the editing team so you and him can start to discuss how to get started working together through this channel on the US company Discord server Kalashnikov requested raw footage from commentator 4 and later shared an edited version of commentator 4's first video for us company 1 Kalashnikov similarly participated in a Discord channel on the US company 1 Discord server for another commentator listed on us company 1's website commentator 5 Communications on that channel included among other things Kash nikov requesting raw footage from commentator 5es and sharing an edited video oh my butt I love how they have everyone's Google searches yes this is actually like it's funny because yeah there it's uh it's just kind of showing like how guilty they are where they're like they're not even pretending to not know who it is they're talking to they only pretend to not know who it is they're talking to based on who it is they're talking to and uh and they yeah they just uh they seem to be pretty pretty straightforward with the fact that they're they're aware of exactly what it is that they're doing and seemingly trying to hide it from other people so while Timol and Dave ruin are obviously getting skeptical and trying to find out exactly who it is that they're about to be working for uh waren Chan and her husband are going to the Russians and saying hey they're asking about who you are you need to kind of figure something out to find a way to dupe them so that they don't know like that's kind of what they're doing over and over so they're they're just uh yeah it's obvious like that they are in on the take and that they are totally on board with all of the propaganda that's being pushed and being paid for it so this is this is wild cuz like yeah as soon as they know that they're working for people who works for RT like they know they're doing something wrong like as soon as they know this they they know that they're doing something uh illegal the trial will be tier one supreme content I mean I don't think there will be a trial you know and not until they they go after Warren Chen and her husband at least cuz do we expect [ __ ] Russia to extradite these people like no that's never going to happen yeah the money sounds good but uh what does social justice mean what did what did you mean by that [ __ ] hilarious dude these people are so brain dead oh they're so stupid it's like that's the this is amazing like how [ __ ] [ __ ] they are that they're like even Lauren is smart enough to be like you know what let's find some of the dumbest [ __ ] out there who will just go along with this and not really ask questions and um these are some of the most high-profile commentators that you could possibly get on the internet and we're positive that they are [ __ ] enough that they will just go along with anything uh okay not anything you said social justice in your [ __ ] thing you can't say that okay uh that's yeah you took it way too far with that one why the [ __ ] did you say social justice all right that's going to be a deal breaker you got to chill with that [ __ ] it's just the whole thing is too good since it's the doj Warren and her husband are [ __ ] well again I don't know if they're actually named in the indictment um cuz throughout all of this they don't even mention their names they do say that the indictment is going after uh kosnik uh Kalashnikov and um and the the aeva people but that's it okay so based on this stuff we know the Russians broke faral laws did Chen and hubby actively break the same law or what no no no no the the the Russians didn't break the laws Lauren and her husband did but so Lauren and her husband are the ones who started the tenant company in Tennessee Lauren and her husband are the ones who are uh are the founders of that company Lauren and her husband are the ones who are taking money from an outside Source from another country and uh and they are the ones who are supposed to disclose this Tom this indictment is for the Russians oh my goodness okay I don't think you understand I'm going to repeat this again it doesn't they they went over the far laws the they did not break the far laws the people who are taking like yeah the people who are taking the money are the ones who broke the far laws and I maybe yeah the other people are going to be like part of this but um let's see it does say that they're RT employees so it's possible that they live in the United States but it doesn't sound like it because every time that they talk to them they're searching Moscow uh times so these people don't live in the United States um e yeah so I guess they also violated it but you there's no way that they violated it and Chen and them didn't there's no possible way there's no way at all yeah it says here the indictment claims the founders were aware they were working with Russian Nationals and did not register with the US attorney general as an agent of foreign Principle as they are required by law for example the indictment claims that the founders refer to the RT employees as the Russians in private messages with each other when the company's uh fake backer Edward Gregorian did not reply to messages about the money one of the founders allegedly Googled time in Moscow one of the founders also allegedly worked directly with rt and it's German subsidiary so um uh later one of the founders was allegedly provided a CV uh to show commentator so yeah there's just no way they are like they are going to be indicted for sure like this is there's there's no way they can't be they are the ones who are in the United States they're the ones who can actually be prosecuted for this they're the ones who are actually even if they're in Canada Canada would extradite them Canada would actually send them over for this sort of stuff um they might even get in trouble in Canada as well so yeah there's just there's a lot of uh there's a lot here but they're definitely going to end up getting in trouble for this and uh and they are like the main people here while the doj is coming out because because this is just the social media part right but the indictment talks about tons of other things that don't really have to do with social media and [ __ ] like that that like uh during the press conference they were talking about a lot of aspects on how they're influencing um the current election but there this is them just talking about yes the investigation is ongoing right so this is just talking about the fact that like um that they have found that Russians are again heavily meddling in our elections that's the main thing here that's what the like a press conference was about that's why they unsealed these documents that's the main thing is to come out and say we know that the Russians are meddling in our elections but yes when like the obvious people who are like really in trouble the people who will actually see some sort of uh consequences for this are Lauren Chen and her husband those are like they will end up paying for the [ __ ] for what everybody did in all of this it is it's really just going to be them that it so far it doesn't seem like anybody else will actually be held accountable it's just going to be them uh onor about November 9th 2023 founder one message producer 2 on Discord and part of Edward hired cosas team team in other words that Edward had hired kalashnikov's supporting supported editing team on or about August 17th 2023 Kalashnikov informed founder one that Kalashnikov had added Elina sh shudra whom Kalashnikov described as a member of my team who would be coordinating the editing team to the US company one Discord server uh digital forensic evidence confirms that Helena shadur was in truth and in fact aeva an employee of RT for example the email account used to register Helena shudra Discord account Bears a Russian web domain and the email handle afalina 1997 which is composed of the first three letters of her name a variant of her name first name oina last name of find birth year 1997 moreover between in or about February 2024 and in or about March 2024 the Helen shudra Discord account was accessed approximately 173 times from Moscow from a Moscow based IP address that was also used to access a uh blah blah blah personal Gmail address on approximately 12 occasions on approximately 163 occasions that same IP address was also used to access the Victoria pesty Discord account which as set forth below was another fake persona used by aan a us company one aona as Helena shudra initially adopted a similar editorial role as Kalashnikov for example in Communications on the US company one Discord server helina sudra solicited raw footage from and circulated edited video for review by commentator 4 so when we're talking about company one believe we're talking about tenant there I believe I thought that was us company one but oh wait no it does say us company one okay yeah so us company 1 is tenant okay uh commentator four after public launch of us company 1 however aan sieva used the Helena shudra Persona and Victoria pesty Persona to push R team messaging through US company 1 and expand its viewership as set forth Below in this chapter aeva steers your us company one marketing and messaging for RT on or about November 1st 2023 one of the six commentators listed on us company 1's website commentator 6 posted a video on YouTube announcing the launch of us company 1 in the video commentator 6 explained that us company 1 was a project of founder 1 and founder 2 who were trying to build a new platform for Independent Media with an initial lineup of six content creators namely commentator 1 through commentator 6 the thing is about this okay going and making tenant you're not actually doing anything like you're you're literally doing nothing all you're doing is creating another channel to generate YouTube Revenue that's it that's all you're [ __ ] doing you're not doing anything besides that the the like all of these people are streaming all of this content to their own channels as well they're all streaming it on their own YouTube channels and even probably on their own private channels as well on like on their own websites they're posting these as videos on their own channels they're doing all the same [ __ ] but then they're just also giving like a copy to tenant and then tenant is posting it again on their channel is what it looks like and then they're just generating more commercials and more Revenue off of the same content on their channels I believe let me let me double check this so what was the Tim pool culture War yeah yeah so this is both on tenant media here and on timcast here although I don't see any episodes on timcast so maybe all of them are on tenant now yeah it looks like all of them are on tenant yeah so this is the one this is the what we watched this video a couple weeks ago this is from tenant okay so yeah maybe I'm wrong maybe it's not just being replicated over and over cuz yeah here's culture boore on Tim pool but this is from a year ago um oh no wait nope yep uh wait are these on his channel nope these are on tenant media okay so yeah so even when you click on timcast channel you all of the videos here are not actually on his channel these are on tenant see right there tenant media tenant media tenant media tenant media tenant media and then these culture War clips are posted on Tim pool yeah so he's just posting clips from the show on his channel what is this we have these massive protests popping up the United States the anti-israel protests and I always preface this by saying you're allowed to criticize the government I don't care um but uh now now we're seeing at the DNC this weekend they're expecting wide ranging estimates of 30 to 100,000 anti-israel or Pro Palestine protesters in this you have this conversation around anti-Semitism and one thing that pops up is that Hamas in their Charter had the line from the Hadith that says something to the effect of I'm not a scholar on this but something to the effect of the l two yeah the rocks and the trees will scream there's a Jew hiding here Judaism Judaism is also a wrong religion it is incorrect and true judism is not right Islam is not right neither of them are true neither of them are real they are both wrong if you follow them you will not end up where you want to go important to say these two things you know it's important to say these two things my my question is is is this is this Hadith line that was included in the Hamas Charter they did remove I don't think that matters but this line about it's it's it's in religiously instructing people to harm Jewish people and chase them down the last one who will be hiding behind a rock and he'll be what is of course they have him on here okay all right I think I think I've got like a at least enough of this to talk to uh uh Josie if she's still around uh with founder one's assistance uh AA Amplified her request that us company one commentators promote us company One content by repeating that request through a second fake persona Victoria pesty on February 21st AA Helena sudra messages founder one on Discord please make invite for Victoria referring to an invitation for the new VI Toria PES the account to join us company 1 Discord server after founder one responded that founder one had already sent the invitation yesterday aan sieva as Helena shudra replied sorry I thought you would send it to me here thus implying that AA was operating both the Helena shudra and Victoria pesty accounts uh founder one then assured aeva the founder one would intro Victoria to the chat and restate that importance of social sharing the next day as promised founder one posted a message to the US company one Discord server introducing Victoria pesty from our investors team mafan sieva as Victoria pesty announced that from now on our top priority should be establishing uh us company 1 social media presence and we do ask you to start sharing us company one post through your own accounts daily second with founder one and founder 2's haing a Fina directed us company one staff to publish specific content that a Fina identified on or okay wait okay yeah so they're saying this is the specific content that we want you to publish uh founder one founder two producer one producer two and producer three Molina is going to start creating customized video for us to post on our socials of viral content that's floating around between in and about January 2024 in and about June 2024 AA posted links to approximately 841 video clips which were routinely posted by us company 1 staff onto US company 1's social media channels on occasion us company 1's staff privately contacted founder one or founder two to push back on aan siva's content and were rebuffed okay so people working for tenant it says staff but people I don't know who staff are I don't know if that's producers or commentators or what but they are saying hey can you tell them that like we don't want to do some of this stuff this is a little bit crazy but I don't know who the staff is I want I would like to know about that so I guess here we'll find out on February 15th 2024 at FIS Helena sudra shared with us company a video of a well-known us political commentator visiting grocery stores in Russia a Sia posted the video in the producer Discord Channel later that day producer one privately messaged founder two on Discord they want me to post this referencing video of AA had posted but it just feels like over Shilling founder 2 replied that founder one thinks we should put it out there producer one acquest responding all right I'll put it out tomorrow as another example on or about March 22nd AA as Helena shudra shared in the producer Discord Channel a video of the March 22nd 2024 terrorist attack on a music venue in Moscow which killed approximately 145 people and injured hundreds more producer one privately messaged founder one writing I don't know if you saw it but they want me to post some footage from an attack in Moscow today there's a watermark in the middle of the page that is that's blurred which looks bad and it's also pretty graphic you can see people getting shot albeit from far away founder one did not push back on the content of the clip but replied in the producer Discord Channel I'm not sure it's a good idea to blur out someone's Watermark of aneva as Helena shra then assured the group that it's fine no worries it falls under fair use producer one and producer 2 found a video clip of the attack without a watermark and posted the clip the next day onor around March 23rd 2024 honestly have a private message founder one on Discord asking that one of our creators recorded something about the Moscow terror attack despite public reporting that the foreign terrorist organization Isis has claimed responsibility for the attack is that us company won blame Ukraine and the United States writing I think we have I think we can focus on the Ukraine us Ang [Music] thank you okay so I don't know how much you guys missed so they told somebody uh they told them that they had to post a video of people being shot at the concert in uh Russia um they kept saying there's a watermark that's blurred out we shouldn't be posting videos of somebody else's if their Watermark is blurred we need the video with the watermark they said no it's okay post it anyways they didn't they went and found another video that didn't have any watermarks on it just took that and posted it instead then after they posted it then the Russians started saying hey make sure you guys are blaming the United States and Russia um so says the next day on or about uh Helen shra privately messaged founder one on Discord asking that one of our creators record something about the Moscow terror attack despite public reporting on that foreign terrorist ATT uh organization Isis claimed responsibility for the attack aan sieva requested that us company 1 blame Ukraine in the United States writing I think we can focus on the Ukraine us angle the mainstream media spread fake news that Isis claimed responsibility for the attack yet Isis itself never made such statements all terrorists are now detained while they were heading to the border with Ukraine which makes it even more suspicious why they would want to go to Ukraine to hide founder one responded that founder 1 would ask commentator 3 and the next day confirmed that commentator 3 said he's happy to cover it commentator 3 is unclear let me see if I can find them e what was the date on that one I found something similar March 23rd 2024 okay I've got October 23rd 2024 October 9th 2023 okay who is this oh [ __ ] who is this and Russia was apparently ready to go into that so the territory is not an issue for the Russians but they they think in a Clos evision system that means that you use tactical objectives to achieve operational goals you achieve operational uh objectives to achieve strategic goals so it's everything you do at a level should be useful at the upper level and that's why demilitarizing uh Ukraine had probably in the gradually and steadily coming round to l maros says baniz of Russia became eu's policy due to Greed for Russia Rich natural resources which the EU doesn't have remember Nazi Germany moveed towards the USSR with similar goals to get their hands on resources well can I just say in support of a bit of what you've said that one of the things that I discovered this is a long time ago was the enormous importance for the Europeans of the third energy initiative which they passed in the early 2000s and which was supposed to force the Russians to open up their energy industry to European Acquisitions the idea was that European companies would be able to establish themselves in Russia itself like shell Works in Nigeria shell would be able to work directly in Russia not working with a Russian partner company but just directly going there and exploiting Russian oil and gas Fields right from the start so they got yelen to sign the third energy package and Putin came along and he said absolutely not we're not doing this we're not ratifying this agreement we signed it we're not ratifying it it's not going to work for us and that in my opinion was the start the real start of the whole massive deterioration in relations between Europe the EU and the west and and the Russians rather because they realized that the Russians were reasserting control over their natural resources r says us panicked after the shooting and Putin knows it yeah well I I've said this before another very important person has been writing to us somebody you'll be we'll be interviewing very shortly about me thinks they do protest too much about all of these you Furious and Isis only Isis no one else but Isis how how can they possibly be so sure about that but they do they are protesting too much and it does show nervousness yeah okay so he's saying the person that he's talking about that he's going to interview soon is complaining about them saying they can't know it's Isis that the mainstream media is just blaming it on Isis who's the person that they're going to be interviewing soon [Music] um yeah I've got like a number of things here but I don't see h like this channel posted the same video three times yeah I don't know who these people are one directional hate Russia Russia gate blame Russia for anything and it works because yeah Russia Russ allowed to say otherwise right and if you do then you're just a Putin shill which is too far the other direction right like that guy's done plenty of bad things you don't have to make things up you know but it's all the made up ones that they're worried about you know oh I'm sorry go ahead well I was just gonna say I mean uh Scott this is how Reed and I know each other we met on tulsy gabri's campaign and this is what we ran into here in New Hampshire you're just oh you're anti-war you don't like all this money being spent on killing people 8,000 miles away who you'll never meet or know anything about you're a Russian asset you're a Russian agent you're favorable Russian tuls yeah so you know what I say [ __ ] all them [ __ ] all those people they're St okay yeah I don't know who these people are I don't know about that one but this one it seems like they're talking about the guy that I'm looking for that and I don't know who it is Isis only Isis no one El interview knows it yeah well I I've said this before another very important person has been writing to us somebody you'll be we'll be interviewing very so shortly about me thinks they do protest too much about all of these you Furious and Isis only Isis no one else but Isis how how can they possibly be so sure about that but they do they oh no okay so he thinks that they're too sure that it's no this one's not on tenant um but it they do have yeah I don't know I don't know who this Alexander merus guy is but yeah he's somebody who who is obviously denying that it's just Isis um yeah I don't know I don't see any content about it anywhere so um I think we can focus on the Ukraine angle mainstream media spreads fake news claims responsibility for the attack yet Isis itself never made such statements all terrorists are now detained while they were heading to the border with Ukraine which makes it even more suspicious why they would want to go to Ukraine to hide founder one respond to the founder one would ask commentator 3 in the next day confirmed that commentator 3 said he's happy to cover it so commentator 3 covered this I just don't know who they are byy in or about June 2024 founder one authorized this didn't say who commentator 3 is right yeah it's unclear it's either Benny Johnson or Taylor Hansen um and yeah I just I don't see I don't see anything about this on tenant and I don't really see it on any of the other channels either oh no no no I didn't mean to do that okay good okay wait [Music] what are the dates on this juai yeah I don't see I don't see anything around this time period so yeah I don't know um let's see policy US Direct company 1 platform by us company 1 employees together specifically honor about June 12th 2024 and a Discord message founder one and for producer one that going forward Helena's team aeva and Kalashnikov would be posting their own videos directly to us company1 social media platform accounts founder one thus gave aan Sia's uh kalashnikov's unfettered access to serve RT's messaging to us company 1's audiences us company 1 receives nearly 10 million from foreign shell entities founder one and founder 2 profited from their unregistered services to RT starting in approximately August 2023 founder one and founder 2 typically submitted two invoices each month to Persona 1 on the investor Discord channel one invoice for us company one's expenses such as payments to commentators and another voice for founder one and founder 2's own fees and common uh commissions between in or about August of 2023 and in or about June 2024 founder one and founder two invoices UK shell company or shell entity more than 9.3 million for us company On's expenses which they asked to be paid to the US company One bank account founder one and founder 2 also invoiced UK shell entity um more than 700 $60,000 for their own fees and commissions some of which they asked to be paid the Canadian company 1's bank account in Canada and some of which they asked to be paid to the US company Bank uh company One bank account in the United States okay I can't read all of this so I gota as a result of committing offenses alleged on count one of this indictment uh pish nikov and AEV Lena the defendants shall forfeit the United States pursuant of Title 18 United States code section 981 and title 28 United States code section 240 2461 any and all property real and personal that constitutes or is derived from uh proceeds traceable to the commission of set offense including but not limited to a sum of money in the United States currency representing the amount of proceeds traceable to the commission of set offense as a result of committing the offense alleged in count two of this indictment uh Kalashnikov and AEV Lena the defendants shall forfeit to the United States pursuant to Title 18 United States code section 982 any and all property real and personal involved in set offense or any property traceable to such property including but not limited to a sum of money in the United States currency representing the amount of property involved instead off fence so it looks like the YouTube channel is going to have to be forfeited it looks like probably even the tenant company will have to be forfeited um it says cuz yes this says any and all property real and personal involved in said offenses or any property traceable to such property like they they are [ __ ] they are [ __ ] [ __ ] they are losing everything in this just by this indictment this indictment alone will lose Lauren Chen and her husband everything e hope Tim gets booted off YouTube he won't it like he he didn't again he didn't knowingly take part in a lot of this stuff like he's obviously uh not the brightest bulb but he is uh seems like he didn't knowingly take part and he was a victim but like they're talking about the fact that like they're sending messages in the Discord account and some of the producers are posting stuff on Twitter just pushing pushing obvious like uh false information about uh about like uh attacks and um things like that and so yeah it's just not it it's hard to imagine being this gullible or this naive thank you tfuel for the raid on Kick um but yeah also they just sorry um but also yeah like it he is a busy person so it's possible that he's so busy that he just doesn't know what's actually going on anywhere around him because he's keeping up with so many different YouTube channels and so many different uh people at this point point that like yeah this is just something that was not a priority for him I don't know they'll be labeled helpful idiots yeah useful idiots yeah um all right let me I got to try something real quick so I got to test out my dad's mic real quick um for tomorrow so me actually I'll just pull up my YouTube channel so I can hear it myself is it yesterday it seemed like it was way too loud and it seems a little muffled which might might not be so bad but seems a little muffled okay I guess I shouldn't have been talking while I pulled that up that was really stupid all right so I gota wait not going to talk and then I'm going to switch over to the other mic and I'm going to talk into that one for a second and we'll see how that sounds hello hello hello hello hello hello hello hello hello hello hello hello MO go yo go yo hello hello hello hello hello hello okay this sounds much better yeah everybody everybody like this one better we all we're all happy with this one the sound okay okay this sounds much better yeah everybody everybody like this one better we all we're all happy with this one it sound okay okay I saw somebody say I guess so is is this better than it was before yeah I'm trying that it seems like there's some issues with the treble and the mono parts so those are the parts I'm trying to figure out right now e okay how about this is this worse or better okay how about this is this better at all hello hello how about this no this got an necho now dang it okay is this better oh yes oh hello Mommy you sound beautiful hello now the echo's not a different mic I'm just able to change the settings like that but I let me change some of the stuff real quick okay so yeah so this should sound totally different now hello hello hello hello let's see is this the setting I'm looking for yes so this one I can sing on you sing a bunch of different songs like I'm kind okay there we go so yeah that's the that's the mic that I have set up for my uh Dad yeah it's got the it's got autotune on it so it has a setting for Primal sound and I never noticed that before and apparently the Primal sound just has much better sound so um that's uh that's the one I have set up for him and we can [ __ ] with him the whole time with that with that whole thing so that's uh we'll be able to just change his voice out of nowhere and make him make him sound like a a little baby and he'll he'll have no idea while he's talking and then I also have like a like other sounds that I can add to it let me see cuz right now I have it set up to where you can only hear one of the other so I need to set up both audio output audio input capture okay second mic or actually let's just do mic number two let's put that on that mic and then whoa was it making a buzzing sound yeah it's a on my end for some reason it seems like it's making a buzzing sound like it's got a it's got a whole thing going let me put some filters on that [ __ ] let's see noise suppression what do we wanted at like negative 45 Maybe yeah there we go yeah it still sound it still works like it's doing it yeah I have buttons like that that I can press gun okay oh dude we got will John oh yes how many times can I press this sweet we need the D [Laughter] Marco got a laugh track on there Bas then I think we have a [Laughter] giggle Okay smack sound okay water I guess wait can I like no that's off did I get it that time no yeah it's it's got too much of a lag will John is the that's d That's a good one somebody says something crazy and we can just add that in Okay so then on top of that I need to I think I might need to make it louder as well because it it might not be loud enough let me pull it back up hello hello like the audio comes through that one faster let's see yeah I don't know it I feel like it's not loud enough over there hello hello yeah this definitely is not loud enough okay so I need an amplifier on [Music] it [Music] g hello hello wait seems like the audio oh wait that's right I got wait no it's on Primo sound yeah I don't the audio got crappier on okay how about now is this better no how did the audio get so much crappier wait is this better now Wait yeah okay yeah this is a bit better so if he's sitting here where does the audio come through here hello hello hello hello we're over here yeah no it definitely comes through here okay so I need to crank this up a bit louder this this is wild over here it says that there's like a a Reverb going through that mic okay so do this sound okay sitting here no it does not is this all right hello hello yeah no dude it's got like it has to be right up against me that sucks and how loud is this going yeah it it says that I have to have this on here but this make it it makes it sound really bad yeah this is not good yeah dude they could have been getting content like this this whole time I feel like my mic sounds different now though is it just me mine sounds I feel like it sounds more like a like a phone now am I crazy okay [Music] so does this sound better if I turn off the noise suppression on this one oh no that does not sound better you can hear all the air and my breathing and everything okay what about turning off the Noise Gate yeah I don't know it's just like there's a bunch of uh yeah I think it's the Noise Gate that's making me sound like a phone when I turn it off it doesn't sound as much like a phone anymore what about the compressor hello hello yeah it just makes me way quieter okay yeah I guess this is fine I just I wish I could copy all these filters over to the other one so that I could just test it that way oh I can okay copy filters past filters okay so how does this sound now oh whoa yeah this sounds horrible [ __ ] yeah probably should have just stuck with how it was before this is no buo [ __ ] why [Music] making all right I'll try to [ __ ] with this tomorrow I'll probably have to mess with it a lot when we first get on with him cuz yeah I I didn't figure any of this stuff out today so I'm uh hopefully I I'll be able to have the mics figured out by then but yeah like it do you guys not hear how this sounds kind of like a phone now compared to the other one like it almost has like a I don't know like a walkie-talkie sound to it I remember people telling me that when I first got the mic but ever since then I feel like it has like a great crisp sound to it sounds amazing but then yeah over time I started to it just that sound seemed to go away and uh sounds okay to me but I have an EQ on my audio H yeah I might uh I'll have to mess with this later the problem is is that when I'm by myself and I don't have a stream on it's hard for me to actually test the audio at all but I'm just now realizing
