Chapter 4: What details emerged from the meeting between Tom Homan and Minnesota officials?

86.828 - 106.054 Vince

A big medical hack of 2025, a big medical hack of 2025 was several peer reviewed studies that identified possible direct connections between anti-parasitic medications, having off-label benefits, fighting a wide variety of cancers. And this actually makes sense because the connection between tumor growth and parasites has actually been studied for years.

0

106.534 - 127.423 Vince

It's been reported that millions of Americans suffer from parasitic infections that often go undetected or undiagnosed. This is why Dr. Peter McCullough, the chief scientific officer at the Wellness Company and one of the world's most published cardiologists, says that these studies make a clear case to do at least one medical grade parasite cleanse annually.

0

127.403 - 145.345 Vince

The Wellness Company USA's compounded ivermectin and mebendazole is a doctor prescribed gold standard combination dose designed to help the body eliminate parasites plus other incredible benefits. Each bottle contains 90 capsules, enough to complete four 21 day cleanses.

175.885 - 188.157 Vince

Well, let's begin with Alex Preddy. We get a bunch of brand new information on what the hell that guy was up to. Remember, everybody was describing him as a simple ICU nurse who was directing traffic.

Chapter 6: How does Eric Schwalm describe the situation in Minnesota?

188.237 - 190.924 Vince

He was an observer. He was just capturing video.

0

190.904 - 216.169 Vince

a peaceful protest and he brought his gun to it and of course all of that amounted to a series of endless lies about what he was up to we would later find out that this guy was a routine left-wing rioter in fact he was out during the 2020 george floyd riots participating in them his family would later disclose his ex-wife said he was the kind of guy who would definitely shout in the faces of law enforcement but she didn't imagine that he would get physical with them

0

216.149 - 240.244 Vince

But the record on this now demonstrates that actually he did get physical multiple times with law enforcement, and that includes a week before his death in Minnesota. Now, this report comes to us yesterday by way of CNN. So the clip I'm about to play for you is going to give this man, Alex Pretty, the most charitable possible interpretation.

0

240.544 - 254.646 Vince

They're going to describe him as merely driving along in his car. He saw ice. chasing someone. And then he decided to get out of his car, to be a good Samaritan, to intervene, to help the person that ICE was chasing. You understand why all of this is so ridiculous.

0

255.527 - 278.25 Vince

Obviously, if law enforcement is in pursuit of a suspect, the last thing you want to be doing is diving in front of them to try and prevent that from happening. So things, according to CNN, got physical, so physical that Alex Preddy had his rib broken in the scuffle. I'm sorry, just because he was standing there? I don't think so. Listen to CNN describe this yesterday.

279.332 - 298.57 Eric Schwalm

What exactly transpired a week before Alex Preddy was shot in Minneapolis and died this past weekend? Now, in this earlier incident, he stopped his car after observing ICE agents chasing what he described as a family on foot and began shouting and blowing his whistle.

298.55 - 322.399 Eric Schwalm

Pretty later told one of these sources that five agents tackled him and one leaned on his back, appearing to leave him with a broken rib. According to this source, and I'm quoting here, that source said, quote, that day he thought he was going to die. Freddie was later given medication that is consistent with treating a broken rib, according to records reviewed by CNN.

322.419 - 334.19 Eric Schwalm

Sources also say that he was known to federal law enforcement, though it's unclear whether it was this incident or another with federal agents that they knew him, they knew of him.

335.551 - 357.479 Vince

So wait a second. I'm sorry. Pause. Wasn't it just a few days ago that we were told his only interaction with law enforcement is that he had received parking tickets? Wasn't that the media narrative on this guy? It's just parking tickets. There's nothing serious in his background. He just stayed past the limit on the meter a couple of times, but that's it.

Chapter 7: What insights does Eric Schwalm provide about insurgencies?

358.24 - 368.753 Vince

Hold on. This guy was known to federal law enforcement. He was getting into physical scuffles with them. He broke his ribs wrestling with cops. That's the story on this?

0

368.733 - 392.901 Vince

now there are elements to this that sound very suspicious if you're in a position where you're wrestling with cops why wasn't he then arrested oh he wrestled with cops and then broke a rib the whole thing sounds so bizarre but the story apparently from cnn their charitable interpretation of events is yeah this happened all the time okay so this dude is an insurrectionist as has been established by a never-ending public record

0

393.235 - 412.736 Vince

And that led to his untimely death this past weekend, where he decided to interfere with law enforcement. And in the process, in that chaos, he lost his life. Obviously, the President Trump is looking into, he's got an administration investigation going into the details of how that occurred. But there's no question that Freddie would still be alive today were it not for his insurgency.

0

413.717 - 432.778 Vince

And the rest now is becoming history. That insurgency will be the subject of my conversation coming up with a retired Green Beret who's detected all of this. He goes, man, I've seen this happen before in war zones. I know what this is. I know how these command and control operations work. I know how they try to make it diffuse. I know how they gather intelligence.

0

432.899 - 454.183 Vince

I know how they mobilize the radicals in order to sow chaos and cause trouble. This looks very familiar. This is an insurgency here in the United States of America. We'll talk about that. But one of the guys they mobilized clearly was Alex Preddy. Alex Preddy only out on that street because he was mobilized by that very insurgency, by that very command and control.

454.824 - 472.332 Vince

They've been admitted inside of that ridiculous signal chat that's now under investigation by Kash Patel and the FBI that, yes, Alex Preddy was one of theirs. That's why he was there. Otherwise, how would he have known? How would Alex Preddy have known to stand outside of that donut shop on that street corner menacing those officers at that time?

472.813 - 494.01 Vince

It's because he was mobilized by the radical left, and now he lost his life as a result of it. That event, of course, was a turning point in what's going on in Minneapolis because it led President Trump to get personally involved. So President Trump then decides, you know what? Get these guys on the horn. I have to talk to them now. He gets Tampon Tim Walz on the phone.

494.09 - 511.506 Vince

He gets Mayor Jacob Fry on the phone. He starts to develop these conversations and these relationships. And he goes, guys, I need you to work with me. We've got to resolve this. I can't have more people dying. This is your fault. And the guys now claim that they're working with him. Okay, we'll work with him. So Tom Holman jets off to Minnesota, now two nights ago.

511.766 - 530.863 Vince

And yesterday morning, nine o'clock sharp, he shows up at the governor's office to meet with tampon Tim Walz. Because Tom Holman's on a mission. Tom Holman's not a flashy guy. Tom Holman's not looking for publicity. Tom Holman's not looking to prove himself or strut around or anything. He's just looking to win. to win.

Chapter 8: What are the implications of the Biden DOJ's investigation into Ilhan Omar?

673.161 - 692.635 Vince

These guys are under federal investigation right now for obstructing federal law enforcement. So the president's got that hanging over their heads. Good. Use it as leverage. Force them to clean up our states. And that's what's happening right now in Minnesota. But Jacob Fry said this about his Tom Holman conversation yesterday. Here's how he described it.

0

693.745 - 718.183 Vince

He said, today, Chief O'Hara, Minneapolis Police Department, he's been terrible. Chief O'Hara and I met with Border Czar Homan and had a productive conversation. I reiterated that my main ask is for Operation Metro Surge to end as quickly as possible, meaning they want immigration enforcement out. You know how that happens? You clean up the city. You cooperate with the Trump administration.

0

719.092 - 739.052 Vince

Jacob Fry says, quote, public safety works best when it's built on community trust, not tactics that create fear or division, which is, of course, what Minneapolis is guilty of, what Jacob Fry is guilty of, creating fear and division, fear of constitutional, lawful, decent law enforcement. That's what he's doing. He's creating fear and division.

0

740.553 - 763.238 Vince

Fry goes on, I share with Mr. Holman the serious negative impacts this operation has had on Minneapolis. Jackass. As well as the strain that is placed on our local police officers. The strain. Yeah, I'll tell you what the strain is. The strain is local cops who want to do their jobs being told to stand down rather than bring peace to their communities. That's the strain. You colossal jackass.

0

763.258 - 787.345 Vince

Jacob Fry. And then he finishes this way. I also made it clear that Minneapolis does not and will not enforce federal immigration laws and that we will remain focused on keeping our neighbors and streets safe. City leaders will continue to stay in conversation with Mr. Holman and his team. So let me, first of all, somebody's raising a point in our chat I wanted to address real quick.

788.247 - 809.682 Vince

Eda Ray says, no, Vince, it was not Minneapolis police. It was a near suburbs police department. Yeah, you're right about that, about how this was a nearby suburban police department, Eda, who were involved. But additionally, the Minneapolis State Patrol, that's the state police in Minnesota, excuse me, the Minnesota State Patrol was also involved.

809.722 - 826.842 Vince

In other words, the state cops who work ultimately for Tampon Tim Walls were making arrests two nights ago. That's a sea change. It's not merely a suburban police department. It's also the state police who are finally having the handcuffs taken off of them because President Trump got involved. That's an important detail.

827.53 - 852.907 Vince

Now, what you just heard Jacob Fry say is, we're not gonna enforce federal immigration law. First of all, nobody's asking you to enforce federal immigration law. It's not your job, you jackass. It's not your job. Your job is to be a good partner to the feds. Your job is to hand over the bad guys to the feds. Your job is not to obstruct federal immigration law.

852.927 - 873.012 Vince

You have nothing to do with enforcing federal immigration law. All you have to do is hand off the people who are causing so much calamity in your community to the Trump administration, and they'll take it from there. So stop with this, oh, we don't enforce federal immigration laws. No kidding. You're not supposed to. You're not even involved in it. Just hand the guys over.
