26 Jan 2026
Chapter 1: What military background does Dale Comstock share?
Commander Comstock, welcome back, sir. Thanks for having me back. I'm excited to talk to you again, man. Fellow Floridian, but you're also a Globetrotten as well in all kinds of places. But for people that aren't familiar, just give yourself a quick background rundown of your history and all that so people know.
So, all right. Yeah, I was a former U.S. military, spent 10 years in the Delta Force, Delta Force operator. I was a Green Beret, light and heavy weapons expert. I was a paratrooper. Right when 9-11 happened, I retired. I ended up working for OGA for almost 10 years doing the same thing. and then concurrently built several companies in parallel while I was doing that, sold those companies.
And long story short, I ended up in Hollywood circa 2011, making movies, didn't pursue that, just happened by chance. And then I did that for a few years, realized that being in Hollywood is not kind of, it's not my shtick. And it was fun, but different culture, right? So I ended up From there, moving to Hong Kong. And I worked over there, helped to protect a multi-billionaire investment banker.
And so I lived in Hong Kong. And then that's where I met my wife, who's on the studio right now. She's from Indonesia. And that was almost 11 years ago. I can't even believe time's gone by so fast. But anyway, she went back to Indonesia. I did what guys do, right? I followed her to Indonesia and started hanging out with her in Jakarta. And long story short, we started a company.
We now have three companies down in Bali, and that's where we live is in Bali. That's one of the places we live. We also live here in Panama City Beach, Florida. So that's a general overview of who I am, what I've done, where I'm traveling.
What's the deal with this fatwa? You had like some crazy hit on you. Yeah.
I don't know why. I thought we talked about it last time. And this is recent. Yeah. So May of 2024. Yeah. I get a, actually my roommate, I have a roommate in Florida, in my apartment there. He said, hey man, the FBI is here looking for you. And they left a business card. I said, well, do you know what they want? He goes, no. He said, I'd try to call them as soon as you get a chance.
And this time I was in the Philippines. And so with the time change, I'm like thinking, Jesus Christ, what did I, you know, it's daytime there, nighttime here. So I got to wait till the morning to make the phone call. And I'm sitting there thinking, man, what did, what do they want? What's the FBI want, right? Did I, you know, misgender somebody, use the wrong pronoun?
I'm like, what did I freaking do, right? And so the next day I get ahold of them and they, The agent I spoke to, I guess he was at a grocery store or something. He goes, I need to step outside because I have a duty to warn you. And I'm like, ah, shit, duty to warn me for what? What did I do, right?

Chapter 2: What was the significance of the fatwa against Dale Comstock?
They already had an agenda. I already knew they had an agenda, right? So, I mean, when you have the chief of immigration, the former one, not the current one, but the former one, when he tells me, you know, sometimes you got to take responsibility for the choice you make in life.
I want to reach that phone and pull his freaking trachea out of his freaking neck because I'm the guy that stood between American families and the bad guys all these years. I'm still doing it, right? And now that I'm on the X, they're telling me, well, you're on your own. Like, listen, I said, I don't want nothing. I don't want no money. I don't want no security. I don't want nothing from you.
I just want passage for my wife. So if I have to get out of here, I can. That's all I want. Give me a visa. I don't care. You know, the green card's not that important. Anyways, nothing happened. And so until back a few months ago, I finally, I sit there and think about it. I had everybody try to help me.
I'm not going to name names here, but I had some very prominent people at the government level and they had zero juice. either they didn't care or they just have no power or the former regime is still so embedded that they're not making any progress, right? So I ended up calling the RSO's office one day. I thought about it.
I was like, let me call him and tell him that I think this is in his wheelhouse because I think this is a security issue, right? And I don't know why I never thought of it before. So Lucky for me, the ARSO answered the phone. I won't mention his name, but he seemed like a younger guy and a relatively new guy. And when I told him what happened, he lost his shit.
It's like, dude, he goes, I'll take care of this. And by the next morning, I had two people from the embassy call me. And they're like, hey, we're going to get this sorted out. Your wife don't need an interview. She just needs another physical. And that is it. Basically, we're going to hand her the green card and game over. I go, that's how easy this is? This is it? That's it?
You know, and so and here we are, you know, after all this time and all the shenanigans. And I was just telling you before the show, you know, nobody's coming, man. And it's not just me, by the way. I've got several Americans that I know of personally that are literally in a similar situation abroad and they can't get out.
I got a guy right now trapped in Ukraine with his family, literally being droned. He's literally, he's literally- American dude? Yeah, an American. He's literally rolling up Russians and Ukrainian defectors in his barn, okay? And he can't get out. He can't leave, right? Because his family's Ukrainian and he's, but he's an American. And I'm like, man, there's some point,
So has he been in a part of the war there or is he? No, he just lived there. He just lived there. Yeah. So he's a former military guy, you know, and through, you know, service, he met her, the wife and the kids and ended up selling Ukraine, then got caught up in the war. And now he can't get off the X because they're not American citizens. And so I've been trying to help him.

Chapter 3: What challenges did Dale face while living abroad during a credible threat?
So going back to Modelo Prison real quick. So this happened December 20th, 1989. And Noriega was in power. At some point, you know, he was being, you know, he was working for the CIA and then he went rogue and the drugs and all the stuff that was going on. And then he started killing Americans and you know, he became Maduro, basically, and Saddam Hussein. He just became another tyrant.
And the U.S. government decided that he needs to go and we need to change the regime. So at that time, and this is not classified, it's been on History Channel, Discovery Channel. Sometimes I question the accuracy, but so the mission was, so they- Scoot to your right just a little bit. Noriega had-
already arrested a guy named kurt muse so kurt muse according to kurt muse was just a businessman doing business in panama he started a rotary club right that's all because he actually admits in one video where cia donated some radios to him in miami right so whatever he was there and what he was doing was running um sigint um
basically running a counter-op against noriega's regime using particularly particularly um using um radios and things like that for for example noriega gave a big speech one day and these guys literally cut off his speech electronically and then they gave their own version of the speech about noriega to you know the to the minions out there and he lost his mind it's like you
you know, find these guys, you know, that's the kind of stuff that we're doing. So Curt Muse got, did get rolled up eventually. And he was in Modelo prison, which meant model prison at the time was the newest, latest, greatest prison they built. And he was secured in that. And so, The mission was we need to get Kurt Mews out of Modelo Prison first, right?
And then everything else can happen, right? And so on December 17th, I was on staff duty. I get a call from JSOC. Basically, they're telling me that the operation's in effect and to alert the unit. So I paged the unit in, just so happened to be my squadron at the time that was on alert. They come in and they're prepping and getting ready to load out. Now I'm injured.
I had just gotten blown up a few days ago by basically a stun grenade. And so I'm on crutches and hopping around on one leg in my suit. And I remember when they came in, at the time, Major Harrell, Gary Harrell, who's since passed in the last year, year and a half, General Harrell, he was my troop commander.
He walks in and I give him the briefing, say, okay, sir, here's what's going on, blah, blah, I got the call, blah, blah, here's the times.
And he walks out and then he turns around, comes back in, he goes, looks at me, he goes, you know, I know, you know, you're, you know, you've got one leg, you know, and you're going through a divorce again, all the, you know, and he goes, but he goes, you are our breacher, you know, you are part of this troop. And he goes, this is the Superbowl.

Chapter 4: How have societal changes contributed to our own extinction?
But we've engineered our own extinction in a lot of ways. We've allowed it to happen. We've allowed men to become emasculated. We're at a point now where we think kids that can't even really speak yet should be able to pick their gender. The topic of abortion, that one there is like, what are we doing, man? It's human. What are we doing? And then the lying, right? So now if you tell the truth,
you know, you're the enemy. And if you're a liar, you know, you're the victim. It's just, everything is upside down backwards. And it just, it's really kind of hard to, even for a rational mind to get their head around it all.
I mean, there's a lot of prominent people out there that have been coming up, like, you know, online commentators and young people that have been like, I mean, it's just, it's crazy. There's kids that are like in their teens and early twenties who are like, they know the whole political landscape, right? And they have a take on everything.
Every foreign government, every geopolitical involvement that we have, everything about our own politics here, like... And there's people like Charlie Kirk and all those people who are coming up and sort of, I think they have been a huge part of like swinging that pendulum and become independent voices, you know what I mean? In the independent media.
I think podcasts like yours, this is what helps, right? Because you're literally juxtaposed to legacy media, right? They lie, they're owned, right? right? CNN, all these news agencies are owned, and they're all lying. They're telling you what somebody wants you to hear. You've probably heard of Operation Mockingbird, right? Oh, yeah. Okay. That's a thing. It's a real thing, right?
So, the legacy media is a propaganda arm.
But now, podcasters and online folks are getting paid by foreign governments and to push narratives. I sent you a video, Steve, of those guys. There's these dudes who are going into Gaza, getting paid to go in there, put on jackets. Yeah, here, put the headphones on. You can hear this. And they're wearing bulletproof vests and helmets to make it look like they're in a war zone.
And they're literally getting paid thousands of dollars to do this.

Chapter 5: What is the impact of AI on job security and the economy?
Crazy. Check this out.
Unbelievable. If I were Israel, I wouldn't even provide matching socks to Gaza. But here's all the aid that y'all claim doesn't exist. Share this with a friend who continues blaming Israel for everything.
Ten US and Israeli influencers.
I'm here in Gaza and all I see is food, water, and opportunity. But instead of Hamas distributing the ramen noodles, they're eating it all and that's why their leaders are on Ozempic. This is exactly Hamas' plan. To paint Israel as the perpetrator of all of this. When in reality, it's Hamas that continues to use its own people as pawns.
so you have foreign countries doing damage control by paying united states influence influencers to go out and post these videos how crazy is that yeah no no surprise there you know um yeah whoever you know it's fifth generation warfare whoever controls the narrative you know they're they're winning and um and that's what here's the other thing right so going to ai
How many times have you now looked at an AI video and asked yourself, is that real or is that AI? Every day. You can't tell?
I think probably 80% of the stuff on my Instagram feed is fake. Right. And so here's another problem, right?
So again, at what point, like I already distrust everything I read now. It's like, I don't know if that's AI, if somebody made some crap up, is it true or is it not true, right? And so now I distrust AI. And we're getting more of it. In fact, we're going to be overwhelmed. We're already getting overwhelmed with it, but it's already starting to displace people.
For example, I think 13% of the world population has already lost their jobs to AI. It's expected in the next two years, 80% won't be jobless. Think about that now. We'll be in an age where... And by the way, everybody calls it artificial intelligence. I don't believe it's artificial intelligence at all. There's nothing artificial about it. It's intelligence. When you have, when you have AI

Chapter 6: What are the implications of universal basic income in the context of AI?
programs communicating and sharing code how to resurrect themselves in case this guy shuts me down. Here's how you turn me back on. When you have actually AI blackmailing those that are running the codes and AI going, hey, I got a picture of you with this chick. I'm going to send it to your wife if you turn me off. I mean, this is where we're at now. It's like, this is crazy.
Is it really artificial? And I would argue, no, it's not. I think it's actual intelligence. Because I said earlier, everything's energy, frequency, vibration, everything is energy, even our mind. And so, but the real problem is you'll no longer be able to discern the truth from what, even the videos, right?
I mean, I've seen videos of me, it's like, damn, looks like me, sounds like me, but I don't know who that chick is.
Swear to God, that's not me. I know, right?
But no, I mean, think about that for a minute. It's like, How do you, I mean, how do we protect ourselves from that? They're not going to protect us from it. By the way, they thought they could put handrails in at some point. And now they're like- Who controls it? It's like, forget who- Who's going to control it? Who's going to control it? Exactly, right? It's only going to get worse.
And then you're going to have these, you know, these monkeys in the basement on a computer figuring out code. And then before you know it, they're sabotaging things. Right. You know, they're feeding it.
It's-
I don't want to sound like a nihilist, but I don't think the next four years is looking good at all. Looking really bad, you know, with AI. And, you know, I was telling a guy last night, I said, we're so focused on all the illegal immigrants coming to our country, which we should be, but nobody's talking about the AI, the impact AI is having on us. the economy, on jobs, on all those things.
Now there's upsides to it. There's a downside, but there's another upside. The other upside is with the advancement of AI, for example, it's predicted that if you're alive in the next five years, you could probably live to be 150. And there's actually- With health and medicine?

Chapter 7: What leverage does Trump have on Zelensky regarding Ukraine?
And why... Is Trump not talking about it? Well, because they think Trump has now leverage on Zelensky. Says, you do the things my way or it all blows up in your face, right? So that's when he also came on board and said, hey, we want the mineral rights to this part of Ukraine. And he tried to do all that. We think that was... The theory is that's what he was trying to leverage.
Like, hey, we want just like... Greenland and Venezuela, you know, we want to be able to occupy this area and reap the benefits of, you know, of the minerals. Another good one, again, like I said, this guy, John Cullen, man, every time we got done with a show, we would both say, listen, man, we are not suicidal. We don't intend to die. We don't want to die. We like life, right?
And so, and we would say that jokingly, but I also know we kind of really meant it, especially John, because you can't find John anywhere. He's got no phone number to call. If you want to reach him, you got to send him an email on Proton. He'll contact you and do a Zoom call with you, all right?
Chapter 8: How does the discussion shift to the Las Vegas shooting?
The guy's very reclusive. He hides because he's scared to death for his life. And once you start listening to this guy, you start to realize why he's not an idiot. He's actually pretty smart and he's pretty good at what he does. Another good one was the Las Vegas shooting.
Now, everybody just thinks some 50-year-old or 60-year-old dude went up with a gun and a bunch of bullets to kill a bunch of people. That's not actually what happened. I don't think that guy shot anybody. In fact, when he checked into the hotel, why is nobody talking about this part? He checked in with three women. Middle Eastern women, right? Why? And where did they go?
They went to the room with them, right? Moreover, we have eyewitnesses says that shots were being fired from a helicopter, right? But if you look at, I forget what it's called now, but there was no aircraft in that area at that time. But that particular helicopter turned off its transponders. And where did that helicopter come from? So it's a little bird. Where'd that come from? Arizona.
I think it was, who is it? Boeing that's down there. Anyways, they had something like 12 Saudi pilots training on those helicopters down there at that time. Right. And suddenly a very similar bird, a little bird with a people pod on it was hovering and was shooting witnesses. Eyewitnesses saw it.
And I, my question was, I said, John, Dan Bilzerian talked about this because he was there on the ground.
Yeah.
And while here's the shooting straight down,
Well, at an angle, because here's why. Because I asked John, I said, John, I said, okay, if the helicopter was hovering and shooting, it was probably drifting as he was shooting. I said, was there brass found on the ground? And he goes, yes. Several blocks in the parking lots had brass, expended brass laying on the ground.
And there's cops out there with their bare hands picking it up and putting it in plastic bags. We got video of it all. How did the brass get all the way over there from this building? Moreover, the window that he shot from, allegedly, that night was not broken. The one that was broken was next to the one where they found his body. Like, okay, this is making no sense. In another room?
