The following is a transcript from the Pro America Report.
Welcome, welcome. Welcome, Ed Martin here on the Pro America Report. Hey, Historic Day, historic day. You know, there’s no other way to say it. No other thing you can say it’s a historic day. You know, the President of the United States is. Former president is. Charged with a bunch of crimes. 34 charge indictment. A really, truly a crazy, crazy turn of events and not good for the country. Not good for the country. I have to say. And it it’s it is. The the charges are silly. It is outrageous that it’s being done. Even Van Jones, you know Van Jones, who is definitely a a liberal. You know, there’s no doubt about that in. In every way really, and he he said that this is a terrible idea. This whole thing is a terrible idea. Seven years after this is. You know, seven years after all this has gone on and you know he’s, why is this happening, right? And it’s just crazy. So it’s a bad thing for America. But I gotta tell you something. I gotta tell you something.
The thing that makes me crazy is there’s a lot of other stuff happening that frankly, are more important than what you’re seeing, in other words, you’re seeing a political hit job. But here’s here’s a story that’s not being covered. Here’s a story that’s not being covered.
The corruption of this pres – I told you last I told you on Friday. I think it was Friday that the corruption of this White House is beyond belief, but here’s a very specific, narrow area that I want you to focus on.
Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia has said he regrets. Supporting the Inflation Reduction Act right, the Inflation Reduction Act was this absolute boondoggle of $793 billion that was supposed to address healthcare and climate and all this. It included some of the build back better infrastructure, but only a little bit. It was a massive giveaway, massive giveaway to lots of special interests, but here’s how corrupt this is. So now he’s mad because he said the law was supposed to pay down the national debt and it didn’t. And and it didn’t do that. This is Manchin. Manchin should know better. He should have known better. But here’s what I want to tell.
Think about what I just said to you, $793 billion of legislative aid that has been spread around to address healthcare and climate, raise taxes, other things, supposed to reduce the national debt. It’s not. But here’s what I want you to hone in on.
Over $300 billion with a B is being administered out of the White House through this Act by John Podesta and John Podesta came out of retirement to go work in the White House to distribute this billion it’s not. It’s not. It’s not. It’s I’m not saying millions. I’m saying billions that there’s billions of dollars that the senior clean energy and climate czar. That’s John Podesta, is implementing is giving away. And so you were we’re talking about. Money that’s moving from the Treasury to left wing organizations. And meanwhile, most of America, most of, let me say it this way, most of center right America. Is sitting at home and and fuming over what’s happening to Donald Trump. Right? That’s that’s mostly what’s happening to to center, right voters and conservatives and Republicans. They’re saying I can’t believe this is happening. But at the same time that we’re doing that, focusing on Trump. The Democrats are transfer, transferring massive amounts of wealth, money to special interests on the left and and when you, when you think about that, if I tell you that there’s hundreds of billions of dollars, if I say there’s hundreds of billions of dollars and you, you say, well and it’s being transferred. Well, I wanna point out to you is it’s. It’s kind of like this. You you get to. Transfer this money and change the lives of of thousands and thousands of the activists who can then keep. Doing the work. Because if you can give you $370 billion in climate and clean energy investment, that’s what Joe by John Podesta is doing. And he’s transforming, transforming that wealth. Out into the community and changing lives, 10s of thousands of activists of far left activists and and everybody else will be living their life well. Be, on our tax dollars because of this transfer of wealth.
It’s corruption, it’s corruption.
It’s not picking winners and losers. It’s funding. The opposition is funding one side of the fight and now you just have to say to yourself, OK, what? What does this mean and and how does this play out? What it means is if you’re on the Right. If you’re a conservative or said a little bit more clearly, if you’re in opposition to the ruling class. You will be. Canceled or prosecuted or targeted or harassed. All those things are what’s in store for you if you oppose the ruling class.
If you’re for the ruling class. If you’re part of the ruling class. You can count on money, $370 billion is what Podesta controls, but so does so does every other department and and the left and the left. And the Democrats don’t pretend that you have to qualify for it or apply for it. They’re just transforming, transferring the wealth. And so you’re seeing. I mean. By the way, the Inflation Reduction Act is is $740 billion. I told you 370 billion of that is this Podesta fund, this slush fund. And my my point here is as you watch again, we’re distracted. What you need to know is we’re distracted by Trump and by the targeting right again they target, they prosecute, they cancel, they lawfare, they they marginalize. They drive us crazy. They’re bankrupting. The guy who’s has said that bankrupting, but he’s gotta spend lots. Of money on lawyers. That’s what’s happening to people on our side. You get convicted of having a bad meme. There’s a guy that was convicted of having a bad meme that they said was somehow targeting the election. But if you’re on their side, you can have the Hunter Biden laptop. You can have Hillary’s on a a comp, emails. You can have Biden’s documents. You can have whatever you want. You can lie about Benghazi. You can do anything. There’s no shame that is too big for the Democrats and the left.
And now they’re bold enough that they’re just transferring the wealth and they’re making sure to fund the permanent class of people who will be. Either running the government or on the outside, aiding the government by running cover. That’s what’s happening. That’s what’s happening all around us. I mean, it’s not even. It’s not even. It’s not hidden. It’s not. It’s not hard to spot.
So remember what you need to know is distraction by real targeting. By the way, don’t don’t get me wrong. They’re really targeting they they got a DA, they got a a District Attorney, a prosecutor to trump up these charges and charge Trump. He’s got three lawyers that I saw he’s had to go to court. He was arraigned. I mean, it’s not, it’s not fake. It’s a fraud. But they’re using real legal systems against him, and the media is aiding and abetting the narrative and the narrative machine is saying this is the biggest news. Let’s focus on this. That’s what the narrative machine wants.
It’s a fraud. If the narrative, if the if. The journalism, if journalists were serious. They would be saying, what is happening here? This is terrible. This is not a real charge. These aren’t real charges, but they’re not.
So they’re targeting, they’re canceling, they’re prosecuting. They’re putting January 6 defendants in jail and letting them sit there and rot. Forget, in the last week and a half there. Have been 2 State capitals that have been bum rushed by leftist protesters over transgender stuff, and you haven’t heard it called an insurrection. You haven’t said there’s a Tennessee insurrection because it’s on their side. But back to my point.
What you need to know is follow the money is so powerful in these cases because when you follow the money, it’s not 10 million, it’s not 20 million, it’s $370 billion, for example, controlled by John Podesta. So he doesn’t have 10 million to give away. He’s got billions and he can give away 10 million here, 100 million there, 50 million here, 50 million there over and over and over. And that’s just one guy. They’re not shy. They’re not shy. It’s not just building up the bureaucracies and saying, wow, the NIH has grown. Now, you know, in the last 30 years, by this amount of budget and this number of employees, that’s that’s child’s play. Over the last two and a half, three years and the Republicans and Trump fell for some of it, but a lot of it was after, when Biden won, they pushed through these things, they bailed out the pensions of the unions. They covered the teachers unions with money. Over COVID. Massive amounts of money and now they’re doing this Podesta thing, and meanwhile we’re focused on New York City and a trumped up case total nonsense while the country is being betrayed. And being dispersed all across the the country to the detriment of and to the detriment of our future, that’s the best way to say it. That’s what you need to know, it’s a. It’s a very, very bad moment. But it’s not just bad because the craziness of the indictments, that’s bad enough. It’s bad because we’ve got a situation where we’re going to see this country transformed, the country transformed by this wealth transfer and it’s unbelievable. It’s hard to believe to follow it.
Alright. We’ve got 2 great interviews today, by the way. I’m. I’m gonna. I’m talked to Ron Kessler. I haven’t talked to him in a long time. We’re gonna catch up with him. We’re also gonna get a a discussion and a follow up. Another one of these books, Alan Gaff, wrote a book called called Field of Corpses about. A A a general, a 1791 defeat. A great perspective on war. We’ll talk with him.
Alright, we gotta run. We gotta take a break. We’ll be right back. It’s Ed Martin here on the Pro America Report, back in a moment.
