Hey, I'll see you in Rutherford, New Jersey, Minneapolis, Minnesota, Ontario, California, Davenport, Iowa, Las Vegas, Chicago, and Grand Rapids, Michigan. Go to JimmyDore.com for a link for tickets. Hey, this is Jimmy. Who's this? Hi, Jimmy. This is Dr. Anthony Fauci. Ah, well, well, well. Our old friend, Dr. Fauci. How are things, buddy? I must say, I don't believe we've heard from you in quite a while.
Yeah, well, you were always shitting all over me. It's not like I'm going to purposely call into a show that's doing that. Now that everyone else is shitting all over me for the same reasons you've been shitting all over me for three years now, I figure what the heck, let's give Jimmy a call. I see, I see. Very interesting. It appears that you had an interesting time testifying in front of Congress the other day, huh?
Oh, yeah, real fun. I'll just sit around and get an ear banging from those jabronis for four fucking hours. What did you expect? You seem to actually seem taken aback. Were you not aware that you would be testifying in front of Congress that day or something?
No, I had no idea. I thought it was a Baskin Robbins and I just wanted in. They made me sit down. Yeah, of course I fucking knew. I just wasn't prepared for the level of vitriol. Like I said earlier, the vitriol, Jimmy, the level of it. Yeah, there's a lot of vitriol out there towards you, sir.
Yeah, tell me about it, which is disheartening because it doesn't make me feel too good about our country's preparedness for the next pandemic whenever that comes. Do you think that maybe some of that might have to do with the great level of mistrust the public has about how you handled the last one? I mean, specifically how it was handled by you.
What the fuck you talking about? Come on, Dr. Fauci. Even the six foot social distancing, that number, it turns out completely made up. Just made up. I mean, kind of. What's wrong with six feet? Sounds about right. Sounds about right. Sir, the public assumes that these types of numbers are arrived at by scientific research, not sounds about right.
Alright, look, I'm gonna level with you. Sometimes you arrive at these numbers by data and clinical trials and that kind of shit, that science shit, and sometimes you arrive at it because it don't stand so close to me by the police comes on the laboratory radio. It's just how it is. Oh my God. And so what? Did you hate people staying six feet apart?
Was that a bother to you? You want to be all crowded up and shit people all over your ass? Personally, I liked everybody spreading the fuck out. It was nice for a change. Glad I could help. You're welcome. That's not the point, sir. Well, that's the point I'm making over here. Yeah, isn't it interesting how the lab leak hypothesis is now favored rather than a crackpot conspiracy theory? I don't know what you're talking about. Come on, man.
You're not in front of Congress anymore. Remember when people speculated that the virus originated in the lab in Wuhan and that was called a crazy conspiracy theory? Well, now it seems to actually be the case. No, it was a wet market. Wet market. That's what we said then and we're sticking to it now. What's the objection to the lab leak? It's racist. Well, it sounds racist like calling it a... Wait, wait, wait. No, it's not. It's not racist.
Well, it sounds racist. No. By calling it the Chinese virus. That's racist. So saying it came from a Chinese lab where they studied these exact types of viruses in Wuhan is also racist because the word Chinese is in there. Chinese is not a racist word. It's the official word for the of or from the country of China.
Yeah, but it's getting close to racist. You got to at least admit that. You do kind of think twice saying Chinese, right? Like, careful. I think in the next 10, 15 years, Chinese will go the way of Oriental. It used to be the polite word, but now it's racist to call people that. Well, then what will you call Chinese people then?
I don't know, but the young people will guide us. Wow, you really are full of it, aren't you? You know, it's becoming the oldest trick in the book. Don't like an idea that appears to be true, causes you problems, reduces your credibility. Just call it racist or white supremacist, no matter how completely batty that sounds.
It really is a great tool, that particular accusation. It gets you out of a lot of hot water. It's hard to fight that accusation. People want to think other people are racist for some fundamental need they have. So yeah, take advantage, I'd say. Jesus Christ. You really are just unrepentant, aren't you?
Come on now. Now you sound like one of them hothead congressmen. You're just repeating their talking points. He got you good, Jimmy. Excuse me? I'm the one who made these so-called talking points before everybody else. If anything, other people are stealing my material.
You know the drill. When the mainstream starts doing the material, it becomes hacky. You got to drop it and go with something new. It's tainted. Okay. Is that another thing you just made up?
Tell you what, kid, the next time we have a pandemic, and we will, and whoever is in charge is going to fuck that one up too, believe you me, because I saw to it, you can be the first out of the gate calling bullshit, and I'll give you full credit. Oh, wow. Well, that really makes me feel a lot better, or maybe, I don't know, I don't like being right about this.
Well, take it from me, it beats being wrong about it. You really aren't going to face any consequences for the handling of the pandemic, are you?
I used to think no, but I don't know. Things are changing. Even mainstream outlets are starting to go back and question how we did things. It's not a good sign. CNN questioning shit. Uh-oh, Spaghetti-O. Anyway, until that point, me and Hotez got an early tea time tomorrow, so I should probably skedaddle. You son of a bitch.
Look, I know you're mad as shit, but you're mad at the real Dr. Fauci, not this fake character, Dr. Fauci. I'm a fun guy. You can't hate me. I can quote jerky boys with you. I can't talk all the fucking time. Come on. Come on. Who loves you, baby? All right, enough. I can't stand this anymore. Goodbye. Bye.
And
And we have a special guest with us today. Neil Oliver is a Scottish archaeologist, historian, broadcaster and writer. He's perhaps best known for the award-winning documentary series Coast, as well as his two critically acclaimed landmark BBC history series, A History of Scotland and A History of Ancient Britain.
He's written 14 books, presented 19 series for national broadcasters, recorded two major podcast series, hosts a live show on GBN News and broadcasts weekly on his online channel. Please welcome to the show, Neil Oliver. Hey, Neil.
What an excellent introduction. Thank you very much, Jimmy Dore. Well, you know what? It's really, I'm excited to have you on. We're all big fans of yours here. We quote you often and show parts of your videos. So you're doing great work. And I just wanted, I saw this. It says, Neil Oliver, it's going to get ugly. So tell me, what did you mean by that?
I think to try and be positive and looking to, you know, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but sooner eventually. I think the troublemakers are going to fall because what they're doing is a subversion of an inversion of everything that life is properly all about.
It's an anti-human agenda. It subverts natural law apart from anything else. And on account of that, they will fall over. But when I say it's going to get ugly, you know, it's a predatory animal, like a wounded, whatever, tiger. And before it falls for the last time, it will lash out. And I would predict...
Whatever, a false flag event or events, I would predict that things will get more spectacular. There will be trouble ahead and ugliness, but it's part of a necessary process. I don't know, it's like the pain of childbirth maybe. Maybe we've all got to go through this pain until we get to the good part. So who are the troublemakers in your view?
Well, I would say I subscribe to the notion that there's a move to centralised power. I think by definition, if you know their names and have seen their faces, then those people are middle management at best and are essentially irrelevant. They're just irritant and annoying and getting the message out. But when you say who are they...
they're operating out of sight, maybe they have done for a protracted period of time. But I think it's, I talk to other people as well, you do too, I talk to you, there's others always. And I think it's palpable that that centralising power has never been as exposed, has never been as wounded, arguably never been as frightened. I think a lot of their motivation comes from fear,
I think what's being done, this attempt to take control of every aspect of everybody's lives and stop people moving around and stop people having freedom to speak and think, those are the responses that are driven by fear. I think we're ultimately dealing with frightened people whose response to assuage their own fear is to try and get everybody under the boot heel.
And I think it's becoming more and more obvious, but they will go down. So I think what I hear you saying is, for instance, well, let me play you this video. So this is that mental case. This little homunculus. Yeah.
Now I'm blanking. Is Huvel, is his first name, Harari? Yuval Harari. Noah. Noah Yuval Harari. So this guy is a WEF...
Guy and he was been working with Klaus Schwab, who's recently retired. And these are the people who want to reengineer the whole world. And they're in pushing transhumanism. Free will. That's the thing they love to bring. No free will. You'll own nothing. You'll be happy, which is I think that's.
I think that's what Stalin said. I think that's what Stalin said. But anyway. You know what this guy said? He goes, what are rights? If you cut open a person, you do not see the rights. Did you do that, Yuval? So listen, I want to play this for you.
Because I became more aware of you when you spoke out against the COVID narrative, right? So there's only been a handful of people with platforms that actually have pushed back against the COVID narrative. The COVID narrative, which didn't only come from the United States, but
It came from the WHO, the WF, Bill Gates, who basically runs the WHO because he's their biggest donor. And so I want to play this for you. And this was chilling when I heard it. And I just want to get your response. COVID is critical because this is what convinces people to accept, to legitimize.
total biometric surveillance. Okay, so I don't know if you heard that his first word was COVID is critical, so I'll just start it again. COVID is critical because this is what convinces people to accept, to legitimize total biometric surveillance. We want to stop this epidemic. We need not just to monitor people, we need to monitor what's happening under their skin.
their body temperature. Like we walked in here, we had to go through a body temperature test. Now they are using it to see whether you have the coronavirus. But exactly the same technology can determine what you think about the government. You know, anger is a biological phenomenon just like disease. It's not some spiritual thing out there. It's a biological pattern in your body.
With this kind of surveillance, I mean you watch the big president, the big leader gives a speech on television, the television could be monitoring you and knowing whether you're angry or not just by analyzing the cues, the biological cues coming from your body. Are you angry about what you hear? Are you frightened? Are you bored?
This is the kind of power that Stalin didn't have, you know, when Stalin gave a speech everybody of course clapped their hands and smiled. Now how do you know what they really think about Stalin? It's very difficult. You can't have a KGB agent following everybody all the time. Even if you do it, he's just watching your outside behavior. He doesn't really know what's happening in your mind.
But in 10 years, the future Stalins of the 21st century, they could be watching the minds, the brains of all the population all the time.
Okay, so this, ironically, was at the Democracy Forum and sponsored by the New York Times. So this is what these people I've noticed have been pushing, and they're giddy over what happened during COVID and vaccine passports and mandates. And what's your response to hearing him say that?
I've watched, I've got a couple of his books on my shelves. You know, I read some of his books before he came to this notoriety that he's had in more recent years through association with WEF and so on. Although, I mean, having said that, I'm not sure how long he's been associated with the WEF. I'm never quite clear when I listen to him whether I think he actually believes and subscribes to this stuff or whether he's just saying what is possible.
I don't know if he's necessarily an advocate of it or whether he's just a kind of a prophet saying that these things are coming. However, I don't doubt for a moment that what he is declaring as possible and what he's saying is imminent is truthful. I think these biometric and other means of monitoring people are definitely coming down the pipe at us.
When it comes to, it's interesting that you took care to point out that his opening word was COVID. I increasingly subscribe now to the belief that, well, that COVID was nothing new.
I think it was a coronavirus and I think it was just a manifestation of an infection that's probably been with us in the ecosystem for decades or longer. I don't think it was anything new. And in any event, I don't think it matters whether it was anything new, because when you look at the data that comes out of, say, a European country like Germany,
And we've all certainly been raised to think that Germany is thorough when it comes to data analysis.
They've pinpointed that nothing clinically alarming was happening in 2019, 2020. Hospital bed occupancy was at a record low, actually, in 2019 and early 2020. And they only started noticing anything troubling later on when the products pushed as vaccines, which they aren't. They're experimental gene therapies. But
The situation started to change then, but people simply weren't dying of a pandemic in any meaningful sense. So I think COVID was simply an opportunity, as he's suggesting there. My wife actually has said for years that the election of Donald Trump in 2016 and the Brexit vote in the UK, the vote to leave the European Union,
were two unscripted, unexpected events that slipped through and everything that's happened in America, around the world, certainly in Britain since 2016 has been a sustained punishment beating
Yeah.
by the testing. It was a pandemic of propaganda
I think, but to get back to what Noah Harari is saying, I think that is what a sliver of the elite would imagine that they would like to see, how they would like to see the world being run. But it's absurd. It's a perversion of the natural order. It's absolutely ridiculous. I think they can fantasize about these things to their heart's content. But in my heart, I do not accept that any of that
needs to come to pass if enough people simply say, don't be ridiculous. And that's the most polite language that you could possibly use in that context. And I think what's interesting as well is I believe we've entered some kind of, what are you going to do about it anyway, phase of our uncivilization. The baddies, the elites, whoever, the centralizing powers, they know the mask has slipped. They know that we know
But they've realized, or it seems plain to them, that it doesn't matter because they've got all this stuff anyway. They've got all the money. They've got all the guns. They've got all the drones. They've got all the technology. And I think it's dawned on enough of them that, you know what, it doesn't matter if they know. What are they going to do about it?
But I think the reality is it does matter. And it's very, very simple in essence that when 8 billion people are aware and you only need a small percentage, a tiny percentage of that 8 billion people to just say no and mean it and to declare that the future that's being envisioned by these people and whatever Harari is, whether he's a prophet or a spokesman or whether he's warning us, I don't know, but it doesn't have to be like that.
So, Kurt, do you want to say something? So whenever you see this guy talking, and we watch the one with the mind-reading earbuds for your boss to make sure you're paying attention at work.
All WEF. And they always do this thing. And I always notice where you're like, wait, are you for or against this? Yeah. But that's the trick. It's like they already stole your watch. All this technology has been out for 30 years. They're just testing how much they can be open about they have this stuff. And then they always do the same trick. They go, well, it's here. So we got to have a discussion about it. Yeah. And then you're like, wait, so you're for again. Like, yeah, no, I know. It's really scary. Yeah.
But are you against it? It's already here. They already have this stuff. They had it. All the tech is like 30 years behind what these assholes have. So that's what they're doing is probing to see where everybody's at with the plan. I think you're right about the unscripted thing, throwing the whole thing off. I've never seen. I mean, it looks like sheer panic from two events.
So, go ahead.
But I don't buy it because, you know, these people want to continue with their cosseted special lives. And they're not going to ever unleash anything that's been, you know, gain of function made lethal because they're ultimately breathing the same air and so are their children and their grandchildren. Neither are they going to have, you know, global Armageddon because they don't want their windows broken and their cars scratched. Right.
It's all just about pushing terror. It's very easy to frighten people. That's been made abundantly clear in the last four years alone. But this is a generational thing. You can always frighten people. But again, that is all of God. It's just fear porn, fear propaganda.
And I honestly feel if I if I have there's nothing special about me and if I've clocked it and if my wife and I have realized that, you know, they got they all got a bit of a fright because everybody went off piste in 2016, elected Donald Trump on one side of the Atlantic and voted to leave the European Union on the other. And they've just had to they've just had to put their foot on the gas and go for it. We can see it. And if it's obvious to someone like me, then it must be pretty bloody obvious.
So that's what I've always said. I'm a C student comedian. And if I can see this, I know the people who are smarter than me must be able to see it. And most of them just don't speak up because of cowardice, fear of losing their position in polite society and things like that. And that comes back to COVID. ♪

There was a big hate crime bill in Scotland, and I wanted to play this brief news report about it and get your reaction. Scotland's new hate crime laws have come into force. But why are some people calling it controversial?
The Hate Crime and Public Order Act came into effect on Monday 1st April, aiming to tackle the harm caused by hatred and prejudice towards people with certain characteristics including religion, sexual orientation and transgender identity. Supporters of the new bill insist that it will make Scotland more tolerant, but opponents have argued that it will stifle free speech and could even be weaponised to settle scores.
Director of the campaign group For Women Scotland said the act was a mess and that many malicious reports will be made. We know that there are people out there who have got lists of people that they are looking to target, that they are seeing this as an opportunity to settle scores. Celebrities like JK Rowling and Elon Musk have both publicly criticised the new bill.
Miss Rowling has long been involved in a battle with the transgender community who accuse her of being transphobic.
The author denies this accusation, saying she wants to defend women's rights. Miss Rowling put out a series of comments on X about transgender women, including double rapist Isla Bryson, who was jailed for eight years last year for raping two women. Bryson, who was born Adam Graham and living as a man at the time of the attacks, was initially housed in an all-female jail before the decision received backlash.
JK Rowling has dared police to arrest her after criticising the new hate crime laws. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has also defended JK Rowling, saying people should not be criminalised for stating simple facts on biology.
We're not going to do anything like that here in England. We should not be criminalising people saying common sense things about biological sex. Clearly that isn't right. We have a proud tradition of free speech and I think it just shows whether it's the SNP or the Labour, these are the wrong set of priorities for the country. I'm focused on delivering on the things that really matter. Holyrood minister Siobhan Brown has said that some people could be investigated by police if they misgender someone online.
First Minister Hamza Yousaf has defended the legislation, saying there has been a rising tide of hatred against people because of their protected characteristics in recent years.
I believe that the new offences that are being created, they will be policed in a very similar way, policed sensibly. And of course the police deal with vexatious complaints on a daily basis and therefore undoubtedly if there are vexatious complaints they will deal with that in a way that again is sensible. This bill is about protecting people against a rising tide of hatred we see far too prevalent in our society nowadays.
Mr Yousaf has repeatedly said that disinformation is being spread about this new bill and what it entails, but there is no doubt that some people expect it to be weaponised.
So what is your response to the new hate crime bill? Is it as bad as it seems to me here that exactly what they're predicting, that these people are now going to go after people for having different opinions, telling their truth about gender and sex, and they're going to make everything seen through a racial prism? What's your response to it, Neal?
Well, the beauty of it was, first of all, it was brought into statute on April Fool's Day, which was a nice comedy touch.
It's also important to point out that the legislation was already there on the statute books to go after people for whatever, you know, for being offensive and abusive and all the rest of it. You know, the legal framework is already there to enable the police to, you know, to deal with anything.
Any and all of the kind of things that were being highlighted by Hamza Yousaf and others there. It's even the intention that people could be criminalised for things they say in the privacy of their own home.
You know that hypothetically, if there was a family sitting around the dinner table of an evening and whatever, the dad said something that was off colour in some way, I don't know, and a child maybe repeated that at school the next day, my dad says...
that that could come into the hearing of another child or a teacher. That would then be reported to the police, and then there would be a knock at your door, and you would find yourself facing potentially criminal charges for what you said and thought behind closed doors with the curtains drawn in your own house. It's absolutely...
what was being described. It's an attempt to censor, it's an attempt to silence, it's just yet another lever being pulled to make people adopt the mindset that you know what it's just for a quiet life I'll just keep my head down and my mouth shut and as far as humanly possible I won't let anybody even inside my own house know what I think about anything.
It's just a dampening down of thought and a dampening down of speech. And it's insidious and it's sinister. And as was foretold in the first week, talk about vexatious complaints. I think the police got something like 10 or 11,000 complaints
logged allegations about hate crimes having been committed. And the police were saying, they had predicted, they had said in advance, they said, this is going to be a nightmare for us. And it was then the case that if it continued at that rate, that by the end of the year, the police would be dealing with more allegations of hate crime than all other crimes put together.
everything that was warned by the legal community, by the police, by all sorts of free speech advocates and all of the rest of the organisations dedicated to ensuring that people are free to go about their business without being pestered by the police every minute of the day. Everyone predicted all of these things and all of it came to pass. But you
But it came out of the Scottish National Party devolved administration, who have a long, long record of bringing in hopeless, ill-thought-out, vague, amateurish legislation. I mean, that is a political party travelling in a clown car.
And by now, the clown car just pulls up, and the doors fall off, and the wheels fall off, and the horn goes wah-wah. I mean, they're just not to be taken seriously in any way. Well, it seems to me that this hate crime thing, it's just another attempt at...
To control people is exactly what you described. Make people afraid to speak up. And in the United States, they got rid of habeas corpus, right? So now, you don't have a right to a speedy trial or even to know what your charges are like you're supposed to if they'd say you're a terrorist, right? And so...
the definition of terrorist has expanded, right? So now if you are protesting against an oil pipeline, you can be called an eco-terrorist, right? If you are spreading misinformation online, you could be called a cyber-terrorist. So now just another way to... So these hate crimes, to me, it seems like...
Just another way to make people afraid, another way to control that. And if someone gets out of line and stands up against the establishment, the establishment can say, you're guilty of a hate crime, you're a racist, you're a phobe of some kind, and that's illegal and you're a criminal. That's what it seems like to me. It's a climate of fear. It's this climate of fear. And again, I mean, it's cliched now to say it, but it's Orwellian.
Again, it's that atmosphere that Orwell wrote about in 1984. You know, it was the case in East Germany, in Soviet East Germany, you know, at the height of the secret police and when the whole thing was running at full tilt. But I think it was something like one in four people were informant.
One in four. Wow. Which meant that it had to have been an informer in every family. Yeah. Informing on the family as well as anybody else. You know, that was the pitch that it had to reach, you know, before the whole thing eventually, you know, fell down under its own ridiculous overburden and weight. Yeah.
but they're trying to inculcate this climate of fear and uncertainty. Imagine trying to, in Scotland, which made such a fuss about freedom and Braveheart, William Wallace and all of the rest of it, and yet the very administration that campaigned for independence for Scotland and that tried to claim the heritage of William Wallace as being what it stood for,
wanting to generate an atmosphere where people were afraid to say what they thought in the privacy of their own homes. And just by declaring your opposition to something, you became some kind of, as you say, some sort of domestic terrorist.
You know, people discriminate. It's in human nature to discriminate. You pick a partner for life, a lot of people do. That's the ultimate act of discrimination. You're saying, I picked this person and I like them better than all the others. I like that one person better than the other eight billion. I mean, if that's a discriminatory behaviour, you know, and why shouldn't people be able to state their opinion?
State their opinion about what they like and what they don't like. That is in the nature of being human and alive. Well, that's what freedom of speech, you know, you have to constantly, people have to constantly learn the lesson of what free speech is. You need protection for the speech that people find offensive and outrageous. You don't need protection for speech that everyone agrees with. That's the whole point of free speech, that you get to be offensive, you get to be wrong.
It's got to the point now where if I had to make a binary choice between the kind of future that we're being herded towards or an alternative where anybody could say anything, however offensive, however foul, however, you know, whatever, however explicit, anything, I would have to opt to live in that world. And part of the experience of going through the last several years for me is I'm
I live with name calling all the time. You know, my timeline on social media and all of the rest of it, I'm called every name under the sun and I don't do a thing about it. And I hadn't even realized that, and I don't intend to do anything about it, but I get hate crime committed against me more times than I could count. You know, sometimes, you know, multiples in a single day and it's just water off a duck's back now. And I think, well, yeah,
Yeah, so what? Call me any name you like. I really, you know, I've got better things to do with my time. Well, that's the scary thing is, is that they are going to criminalize people for telling the truth, just like they did during COVID, right? Just like they do to people who tell the truth about Ukraine war. If you told the truth about COVID on social media, you got censored.
And I have to always remind people that you never get in trouble for lying, right? Not real trouble. I mean, look, the reason why Julian Assange is in a prison isn't because he lied. It's because he told the truth. Same thing with Edward Snowden. He can't come back to the United States, not for lying, but for telling the truth. But in the United States, if you lie, like if the people who pushed the Russiagate hoax, which is a complete hoax,
and was the dumbest conspiracy theory I've ever seen. But people believed it, and the people who pushed it at the top of their lungs get rewarded with $35 million contracts. And the people who told the truth about it and tell the truth about Ukraine and tell the truth about COVID, like Tucker Carlson, they get fired. He didn't get fired for lying. He got fired for telling the truth. And that's what people need to remember. ♪
Hi, you know what? We got Scott Ritter back with us because I wanted to get his expert opinion and have him explain this story for us. So this is a big story from today. Revealed, NATO planned to get U.S. troops to the front line to fight Russia. Alliance prepares for rapid deployment of American soldiers. Amid fears, Moscow is plotting major war with Europe. NATO leaders previously agreed to ready 300,000 troops for rapid deployment. So this is...
U.S. troops are going to go fight Russia? Tell me what this means. Well, right now, the United States has approximately 100,000 troops in Europe.
That's not enough to wage a war today. But, you know, it's enough for a presence, a tripwire. But if there was a war with Russia, NATO would need to mobilize a considerable amount of combat-capable troops. They simply don't have them today. This 300,000 rapid deployment force exists only on paper at the moment. But one of the problems NATO has is because it's a peacetime military alliance between
How do you get troops from the port to Eastern Europe? All the NATO logistics that existed in the past got troops from NATO ports or NATO airfields in Western Europe to Germany, which was the front line. West Germany was the front line with East Germany, the Soviet Union, etc. But now that the
NATO has expanded to the Russian frontier with Poland, the Baltic states, Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania.
There isn't infrastructure to support this, and there's insufficient troops in. We used to have 300,000 troops in Europe and could deploy another 250,000, 300,000 within 10 days. Today, we have 100,000, and we don't have the ability to surge forces in. And so any reinforcement to take place is we'd be bringing troops over on ships, right?
They'll arrive in ports. One of the big ports they would arrive in would be in Hamburg or Antwerp. Previously, they'd get off the course and ride on German highways to a German front line.
Now they have to cross borders. NATO hasn't figured out how to move troops from one nation to the next, how to do customs clearance, how to avoid bottlenecks. Two, none of their highways or bridges have been reinforced to handle large-scale military movements. So even once they allowed it to happen, the infrastructure would collapse. Three, there's no redundancy. I
Meaning that if there's one bridge over the river that you got to get your army over and the Russians blow up that bridge, you don't have a plan B. D, how do you get troops that you can get them to Poland, but how do you get them to Romania? How do you get them to Finland now that Finland joined?
And so what NATO is doing now, they just did an exercise in, for instance, in Norway, landing a couple hundred American and Finnish and Norwegian Marines. And they wanted to get them to Finland, to get them from Norway over the mountains down through Sweden,
up into Finland to the front line, they realize the infrastructure doesn't exist. So if Russia was to go to war with Finland, NATO couldn't reinforce Finland, even though they promised them the good. So they have to spend money now building superhighways, new bridges, port facilities, and then they have to plan. What happens when Antwerp no longer exists because the Russians took it out? Where do you land? What's your plan B port? And this is what this plan is right now. NATO is saying,
We can't do this, so we have to come up with a plan to do it. The bad news is it makes it look like NATO and Russia are going to war. You know what the good news is, Jimmy? They can't do it. It's too expensive. Is that to scare us? Yeah. So has Putin been threatening to go to war with these smaller countries? Putin has been saying the exact opposite. All Putin has done is defeat NATO and their proxy, Ukraine, in Ukraine.
Putin has humiliated NATO. The defeat of NATO's technological superiority. You remember when the Leopard tank was the magic weapon? Yeah. But they found out that it burns. The Abrams was the magic tank. It burns, too. There's no such thing as a magic weapon. All the weapons that the West thought would give it the technological edge over the Russians...
don't. HIMARS, that multiple launch rocket system, it uses a GPS guided warhead. The Russians jam it. The HIMARS doesn't hit what it's supposed to hit. The same thing with ATAKOMS, it gets jammed. There are no magic weapons and this has humiliated NATO. The other thing NATO realizes, and General Cavoli, who's the US commander of ground forces, said
NATO had never imagined the scope and scale of the violence taking place in Ukraine. They weren't prepared to suffer the casualties for the sustainability factors. And so what's happened is that NATO realizes it can't fight the Russians, that the Russians have the better army, the better way of doing this. And so NATO now is screaming,
they have to turn to their taxpayers and say, you've got to pump up hundreds of billions of dollars now to rebuild our military. And the taxpayers are saying, why?
Why are we going to do that? Well, because the Russians are threatening to invade. The Russians aren't threatening to invade. All Russia's done is beat NATO in a war that NATO started. So why then would this, so it says revealed. So that means that on purpose, NATO revealed this plan. For us to be scared. And who is that? Is that for us to be scared? What's this for?
Well, I think the reality is somebody in NATO went, this is insane. And they revealed it because remember, this is just paper. These are just words. Those 300,000 troops don't exist. They haven't recruited them yet. They haven't trained them yet. Germany, to give you an example, has said that they're going to expand this battalion. They have a couple hundred men in, I think, Lithuania to a brigade of 4,000 men.
They're supposed to make everybody scared on that. It may not happen because Germany has to first recruit the troops who agree to be stationed overseas. They can't just take a brigade out of their army and station in Lithuania.
The Constitution prohibits that. So they have to recruit 4,000 Germans who agree to be stationed overseas. And then they have to equip them, which means they have to build new tanks and armored vehicles, except they can't because America blew up the Nord Stream pipeline, which brought in the cheap gas, which allowed the, you know, the...
the steel plants to produce steel. Those steel plants had to shut down because they can't afford to produce steel. Germany can't make steel to make tanks. They can't make the tanks to make the, to build the battalions to make,
This is all of NATO is a disaster like this. It's just a one big giant cluster. You know what? And that. So I think what happened here is somebody looked in there and said, we need to nip this madness in the bud. Let's reveal this plan so that Scott Ritter can mock it on Jimmy Dore show and kill it. And so that's what this is. So this isn't anything to actually be afraid of. We can't do it.
That's like me, Jimmy. That's like you say, okay, Jimmy, tonight I'm announcing that I'm going to build a space rocket and I'm going to go to Mars. And you're like, oh, my God, if Scott goes to Mars, that'll disrupt the universal balance. Scott ain't going to Mars because Scott can't build a rocket. NATO can't do anything that's on that headline. They can't do any of that. So, you know, what...
So Biden recently gave the go-ahead for Ukraine to go ahead and attack targets inside Russia. Yeah. Is that actually a major escalation? And I saw Medvedev kind of hint that this could turn nuclear. Is that also something we should worry about? This is where I have to get really, really serious right now because I try to answer things. I mean, I answer it honestly, but like that headline's a joke. So I bring humor into it.
You know, the Bulletin of American Atomic Scientists, they have a thing called the Doomsday Clock. And recently they set it at 90 seconds. They say we're 90 seconds until midnight.
I'm here to tell you right now that if you were being honest about the doomsday clock, you would set it at one millisecond to midnight. And what I mean by that is as you and I are speaking right now, this is the most dangerous situation the world has found itself in since the Cuban Missile Crisis. We are this close to a thermonuclear war. One miscalculation, one mistake. As we are talking, this miscalculation could occur. And
The Russians will send nuclear weapons into Europe. We will retaliate and the world will end within a span of an hour and a half. This is real.
I hope everybody listening to me right now goes to bed and shakes and is scared because you need to be scared. You need to start calling people in Washington, D.C. saying, what the hell are you thinking? Because the whole purpose of allowing the Ukrainians to do this is to bring harm to Russia in hopes that Russia will accept a peace plan coming out of a peace conference that
taking place in a week that isn't going to take place because nobody's going to attend because ukrainians are a joke but we can't admit that so we give the ukrainians permission to do what ukraine say they want to do which is to bring harm to russia in russia if you go back just to put this in perspective go back to you know who ray mcgovern is a former cia guy great guy yes um
In the buildup before this became a war between Russia and Ukraine, the Russians actually submitted a draft peace treaty to the United States and said, this is how we could prevent a war by talking about how to come up with equitable relationships.
In the discussion that the Russians had with the United States, they said, what we really fear is that you're going to put missiles in Ukraine and those missiles are going to strike our strategic facilities. Because you see, when the Soviet Union existed, Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union. So all of the strategic things, the command centers, the missile silos and everything were in the center of Russia, far away from NATO. It took NATO a long time to get there.
But when if Ukraine joins NATO and you put these American missiles up to the front line, they can now strike Russia's strategic command and control. And Russia said back then before the war, if you put missiles in Ukraine, it will be a war.
Jimmy, we put attack comes missiles with a 300 kilometer range, a 300 mile range, a 300 mile range in Ukraine. And the Ukrainians are using them to strike targets in Russia. Targets that the range arc includes command and control radars, missile silos, nuclear storage facilities. Russia cannot allow this to happen.
They can't. It's existential in nature. And if Ukraine makes a mistake right now as we talk, if Ukraine makes a mistake and fires a missile that hits a Russian command and control center, Russia will nuke Europe right now as we speak. Well, I mean, so doesn't Russia understand that that would also mean the nuclear annihilation of Russia? Vladimir Putin has addressed this. He said, we won't start the war.
We have a nuclear doctrine that's quite clear. But if you hit us with nuclear weapons or if you use conventional weapons that threaten our nuclear deterrence, we will respond. We understand that we will go to heaven as martyrs, but you'll go to hell as the people who started a nuclear war. That's the Russian approach. The other thing that Vladimir Putin has said, and I'm saying this because there's people out there who say, well, Russia's just bluffing. He has gone on national TV and spoken to the Russian people and said,
There will be no phone calls. There will be no negotiations. All orders have been signed. All orders have been issued. When the time comes, it will happen instantaneously. Do you think Americans are just so used to living with nuclear weapons and they think that they'll never be used?
No, I think what happened is, I mean, because we lived with nuclear weapons in the 50s, 60s and 70s and early 80s, and we were scared to death. I can tell. I grew up there, Jimmy. I was scared. I lived in West Germany. I lived next to a nuclear weapons storage facility. My dad was a commissioned officer in the Air Force at a headquarters. On occasion, he would go into the bunker, which you go into the bunker when you're ready to go to war. He would call my mom and say, gather the kids, because...
This might be it tonight. The whole world might end. And we would be there because we lived next to the nuclear storage facility that would get hit with a nuclear weapon. And we would die. I played football when my dad was in the bunker. They had an Audubon going by. And you know how when sunlight hits a rearview mirror, hits a windshield, that's why you get that flash? Yeah. I'm on the football field.
looking at flashes on the Audubon thinking, "Oh shit, excuse me, oh, that's it, it's over." As a freaking high school kid, I was scared to death of nuclear weapons 'cause they were an ever present reality.
I learned to respect nuclear weapons, which is why when I was a weapons inspector in the Soviet Union in 1988 to 1990, destroying these very same weapons, I was so damn happy because I said, we're getting rid of these things. We're creating peace and harmony in the world. I might grow up to have children and grandchildren. Yay. And then we died.
went into this period of time where the weapons still existed, but people forgot about them. People forgot to be afraid of them. People don't think they're real. People can't imagine that they're going to be used. I'm here to tell everybody in your audience that the United States, like Russia, has a nuclear war plan. You know how we win the nuclear war? This is the sickest part. By being the largest remaining civilization on the planet. Now, some estimates say that we will be down to 30 or 40% of our current capacity.
But as long as we can be the largest remaining civilization, we will continue American global domination in a post-nuclear environment. That's the definition of victory in a nuclear war. And this nuclear war could happen literally right now as we speak because of this. So why aren't there? So why aren't there? Why do you think there isn't more people screaming with their hair on fire about this to stop the Biden administration from letting Ukraine do this?
Well, I mean, I tried, I was supposed to speak at the rage against the war machine, uh, rally and, uh, you know, the libertarians shut me down because I'm a bad guy. Apparently. Um, I've been screaming until I'm blue in the face. Um,
The problem is, again, I'll just be honest, the anti-war movement in America is so fractured, they just can't get along. There are a bunch of hippies that, you know, have their own, they want their own slice of the pie, and they just can't agree. In 1982, in June of 1982, the anti-war movement put a million people into Central Park.
to protest against nuclear weapons and to protest in favor of arms control. Ronald Reagan, the crazy communist-hating Republican president from hell,
He's the guy that signed the Intermediate Nuclear Forces Treaty, Jimmy. He's the guy that sent me to Russia to get rid of those weapons. He was influenced by a million Americans marching in Central Park. Why can't we get a million Americans marching in Central Park today? Why, on this, survival, the very survival of our nation, of the world, why can't we motivate all these people out there to realize that any other cause you have is meaningless if the world ceases to exist?
That was, I was part of the people trying to convince people like Code Pink and the other people that, you know, the joke I do in my act is like, well, yeah, I'd like to stop a nuclear war, but not with those people. Not with them. Yeah, not with them. So, I mean, it just shows that they're not really serious about it and it's more of a cosplay organization. And it wasn't just Code Pink. It was a lot of people. Wow.
Wow. Well, one second to midnight as the doomsday clock. That was that Dr. Strangelove. I mean, I can't believe that's the plan. That movie's the plan. That movie's the plan. You know, the well, again, the first when we first came up with the nuclear war plan, John F. Kinney was the first president to be briefed on it. It was called the Single Integrated Operation Plan or PSYOP. He went to the Pentagon to get briefed on it.
When the Pentagon briefed him that the plan was to destroy the world to keep America, then Kennedy turned to his advisor and said, and we call ourselves the human race. And then he screamed at the guys. He said, this is insane, literally insane. You can't ask me to push the button to destroy the world. You have to give me options.
Then he was assassinated. When Lyndon Johnson became president, he was briefed on it. You know what his response was? This is insane. You can't ask me to destroy the world. You have to give me options. But the Pentagon only has one option. Destroy the world. They pretend to have other options. They've briefed every president.
up during the Cold War on that. Every single president, including Ronald Wilson Reagan, said, this is insane. You have to give me options. And then the Cold War ended. And then we forgot about nuclear war. We forgot that there was this plan there. And then George W. Bush, after 9-11,
said, we can never allow this to happen again. We have nuclear weapons. Find a way to make them relevant again. And now we lived in an environment where there was no more Soviet Union. We didn't have a threat. And so we started to use our nuclear supremacy as a way of leveraging global power.
And we now have guys who have reimagined nuclear war using the same models that we used back in the 60s, that when we go to war, if there is a nuclear exchange between the United States and Russia and the United States and China, our goal is to keep enough of our civilization intact.
intact, that we are the largest surviving civilization while we destroy the rest of the world. I would like to ask Joe Biden, because here's the thing, Jimmy, to show you this. Joe Biden knows this because he's been in the Senate. He's been the vice president. When he ran for president, he said...
I want to change the nuclear posture of the United States to a deterrence-only model, meaning that it's a single use, that we only have nuclear weapons for one thing. And that's if you drop nuclear weapons on us, we use nuclear weapons against you. That's it. Sole use.
He promised that he would do this. I went to an INF reunion, Intermediate Nuclear Forces reunion, where all the arms control people, the inspectors, the negotiators were there. And they brought in a senior administration official who asked to remain anonymous. And they were asked the question by us, the guys who got rid of nuclear weapons, who know something about arms control. We said, the president ran on this platform. Why didn't it happen?
He's the commander in chief. Why didn't he keep this promise, the most critical promise? And they said, well, the interagency wasn't ready for this. Now, did you vote for the interagency in the last election, Jimmy? Did you see them on the ballot? The interagency? The interagency. So that's the deep state. The interagency. That's the group of the Defense Department, the CIA, Department of Energy. The Nazis. They basically, the establishment, come together in a group, in a cabal, and they control the
the national security of the United States. The interagency wasn't ready for this. Well, I mean, my God, couldn't the president just say, hey, interagency, you're fired. You're all fired. You're all unemployed right now. And I won't hire people that are ready to do this. But Joe Biden backed down because every president backs down because you can't take on the establishment. And that's the problem. Which is what Chuck Schumer told Nancy, Rachel Maddow, that if the
Trump is not he's not being nice to the CIA and the FBI and the deep state. And they've got six ways to Sunday to mess with you. Well, we see how it is. Right. They did Russiagate on him. They lied to the FISA court 17 times to get taps on his phones. They've impeached him twice. And now they've got four different felony trials against him, one more ridiculous than the next.
And they just convicted him. So so that's what that's. So you're so even if you are a mild speed bump, which is all Trump really was to empire, a mild speed bump, this is what they'll do to you. And so Chuck Schumer really did give the game away. It's like the the CIA, the NSA, the FBI, they don't work for the president.
they don't they work for themselves they work for themselves and a handful of billionaires who actually run things probably trillionaires wait scott well um there's that continuance of government is that what you're talking about with the uh keeping the last civilization around like when they whenever the edward teller made the hydrogen bomb they started having this whole thing at digging bases so that the powerful could be safe
Is that what that is? Well, absolutely. You know, the irony here, and I, again, forgive my smile, Jimmy. Sometimes things are just so ridiculous that you have to smile. And if you don't find humor in life, you go insane. But the irony is all these guys who fall in love with nuclear war now, they think that all that infrastructure still exists. They think they're going to live. But what they don't realize is when the Cold War ended, we stopped funding that.
I used to train as a firefighter in hazmat response. We would do railroad rescue operations in one of these places where they used to have a train line going into a tunnel into a mountain where they would take all the congressmen and everything in there to hide. Well, they shut that facility down. They haven't been maintaining it. It's mothballed. And we've been using those tracks to train on derailment. And these guys believe that if they have a nuclear war, they're going to get on a train
and it's going to take them someplace to live. They're going to show up in one of these facilities and realize that the filters haven't been serviced, and radioactivity is going to come down. They said, well, that can't happen. Well, you guys didn't fund the servicing of the filters. The water supply hasn't been replenished. You're all going to die. And I just...
hope that I'm still alive when the flash comes in their head that they screwed up, that they thought they were going to be part of the 30% to survive. And the realization is nobody survives because nobody's ready for what a nuclear war is going to bring on this world.
What about that $2 trillion they keep losing every so often? I bet you could fund some pretty cool stuff with that. Vegas, baby. Vegas. I don't know. I don't know where it went. Okay.
