Speaker 2: Former Congressman Peter King, former Chairman of the Homeland Security
Speaker 2: Department and Congressman King, We've got to ask you to
Speaker 2: continue our discussion here that we've been having all morning
Speaker 2: about the national security issue that foreign money, whether it's
Speaker 2: in campaign funds.
Speaker 3: Well, first of all, the title of the conversation is
Speaker 3: America is under attack.
Speaker 2: Right, America under attack not just from Iran or from
Speaker 2: terrorists and bombs, but from money from fentanyl vise and
Speaker 2: from voting influence. All this is illegal. What do your
Speaker 2: take on all this? Because we think this is just
Speaker 2: as dangerous as bombs and guns.
Speaker 4: No, there's doctor's a thread from foreign money. All I
Speaker 4: would say, though, that is a thread from within that
Speaker 4: he would have to foreign money and Domini and that crowd,
Speaker 4: it would still be powerful. But the part of money
Speaker 4: adds to what it gives them, how they wouldn't have
Speaker 4: otherwise something that it has to be analyzed. Bersonal carefully
Speaker 4: should be prosecuted. I believe how they getting where with
Speaker 4: it for a long time. The only thing I would
Speaker 4: say is status focused on that because the fact is
Speaker 4: whether if any money or not, there's a real threat
Speaker 4: political threat in this country for people who support the
Speaker 4: DOMI whether or not this money the money, and so
Speaker 4: that was the moment in top so to me, we
Speaker 4: have to fight this on many fronts.
Speaker 2: Peter King. We but we also learned and I played
Speaker 2: the sound of a member of the German government admitting
Speaker 2: and boasting that they have been using German money government
Speaker 2: money to recruit socialist Canda foundation from some foundations, but.
Speaker 3: A foundation in Germany influencing you know, I can't believe
Speaker 3: this stuff is happening, recruiting candidate and nobody goes to jail.
Speaker 4: Well it shouldn't. I mean any type of use to
Speaker 4: bow money is illegal about it. It's almost entirely illegal.
Speaker 4: It should be get investigated and prosecuted. And it's been
Speaker 4: going on two years, but really reached the last several years.
Speaker 4: I mean, Russian has been trying to instruing our elections
Speaker 4: for fifty years. But the fact is within the last
Speaker 4: i'd say ten years, all that big Buddy that Act,
Speaker 4: no money, all of that, so much that is intlicated
Speaker 4: with FORWED funds, and it's there, It's no doubt about it.
Speaker 4: So that's get I think investigated Pasch. Look, Camplin as Hey, Peter,
Speaker 4: it's George. You know, hey, George, how are you doing?
Speaker 5: Unless until you make an example, you're not going to
Speaker 5: stop it. You know, you have to.
Speaker 4: You have to.
Speaker 5: You have to deter what's going on. And and I
Speaker 5: think you know you were there. You were under pressures
Speaker 5: of raising funds. And I think for a lot of
Speaker 5: these politicians they need the money, you know. And it's
Speaker 5: it's sad how like John says, we're under attack in
Speaker 5: many ways, but this is the biggest area that we're
Speaker 5: under attack.
Speaker 6: People have gone to jail. They went to jail. Under
Speaker 6: Eric Adams administration. You had this guy erden Arkin. Okay,
Speaker 6: they claimed that he funneled money from Turkish government, uh
Speaker 6: to the Adams campaign. Right. So during the Biden administration
Speaker 6: they they probably speed it up the process of incarcerating people.
Speaker 6: But uh, you know we need to speed it up.
Speaker 6: As John said, people need to go to jail. You know,
Speaker 6: politicians are there to represent us, not to rob us,
Speaker 6: not to you know, take foreign money and and you know,
Speaker 6: compete with their with their competitors.
Speaker 4: Peter George, I think you agree with many times. You
Speaker 4: don't know what part of.
Speaker 1: Money this is Fernando.
Speaker 6: This is Fernando people.
Speaker 3: Well let him finish, Yes, let him finish. Okay, please,
Speaker 3: let's just step over each other.
Speaker 4: What I'm gonna say is that the danger is often
Speaker 4: that money is received. He's candidate fantasy getting is that
Speaker 4: you realize his par and money. It's much more clever
Speaker 4: than that. I say it right here to New York,
Speaker 4: I think to he agrees with me on this. It's
Speaker 4: a real threat for Chinese money. He needs indicats coming
Speaker 4: down and that's the reality. At least have people from
Speaker 4: a respect and looking respectful in the community and they
Speaker 4: excuse the foundations me while that working the way in
Speaker 4: and the money as a real political in thro so
Speaker 4: China is that I think we focused on Russia, who
Speaker 4: we should, but also shines real sad people are getting
Speaker 4: over the step that right now, yeah, you know trank roll,
Speaker 4: whether it's post that they said, don't know, we get
Speaker 4: you're talking about fireing buddy China's money and so it's
Speaker 4: said come to many shapes forms that it really has
Speaker 4: to be investigat.
Speaker 5: Now. They're really smart on how they cover it up,
Speaker 5: There's no doubt about that.
Speaker 3: Very smart.
Speaker 5: And even that the Act bluw that was, you know,
Speaker 5: think about there was an ingenious way of doing it. Well,
Speaker 5: that's why we have to once we get a get
Speaker 5: a handle on some of this stuff, we've got to
Speaker 5: break it open.
Speaker 3: For everybody that wants to know what when we raised
Speaker 3: the price When President Biden's administration raised the price of
Speaker 3: oil to one hundred dollars a barrow, it made the
Speaker 3: foreigners wealthy beyond beyond. And what they did is to
Speaker 3: reward back the Democratic Party. They fed it back to
Speaker 3: the Act Blue hundreds of millions of dollars. They made
Speaker 3: hundreds they donated hundreds of millions, but they made hundreds
Speaker 3: of billions. So it's like giving you a commission, thank
Speaker 3: you for making making us billions of dollars. Here's a
Speaker 3: couple of hundred make it. And the Democratic ball Party
Speaker 3: through Act Blue, found his system to bring it in
Speaker 3: and not report.
Speaker 5: It right and then, and that's where I think sorows
Speaker 5: sorrows does it a lot of it for for for game,
Speaker 5: for financial gain.
Speaker 2: He has no ideology. He's not a leftist. I don't
Speaker 2: call him a leftist.
Speaker 3: He just wants to.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he wants to leftist or rights. He's about money. Yeah,
Speaker 5: he's trying to. He's trying to figure out the best
Speaker 5: way to make money.
Speaker 2: It's a cheap investment for him. I mean the amount
Speaker 2: of money that he originally spent on these district attorney
Speaker 2: elections which no no one had ever nationally sponsored, all
Speaker 2: these local dacts create the sort, right, because he knew
Speaker 2: this is this guy has a running bet George and
Speaker 2: everyone else against the US dollar. That's George Soros's bet,
Speaker 2: and he's it's a bad bet, by the way, so
Speaker 2: we'll have the last laugh.
Speaker 3: Well, President Trump made it a bad.
Speaker 4: Bet, that's right.
Speaker 2: But Peter King, he's not a leftist or he's not.
Speaker 2: He's trying to undermine the country.
Speaker 4: Correct, Yeah, I just I wanted to undermine our way
Speaker 4: of life. I was struck to a adding economy. I mean,
Speaker 4: so job, he's not a good guy, and he's also
Speaker 4: coming direct the political ideology, the post of all it's
Speaker 4: made ideologies to bring down the country.
Speaker 2: Peter King, America also under attack. We talked about drugs.
Speaker 2: We talked about fentanyl and how there is a difference
Speaker 2: between the drug trafficking of today and the drug trafficking
Speaker 2: of the Miami Vice nineteen eighties. Sure, the Mexican gangs
Speaker 2: that are at the final end of that chain are
Speaker 2: looking to make money, but the Chinese who created this
Speaker 2: fentanyl and flooded it into those gangs, they're also not
Speaker 2: about They're not They're the opposite of story. They're not
Speaker 2: about money, They're about killing our children. You know, John
Speaker 2: was saying it's like a seven thirty seven crashing every day.
Speaker 2: I said, it's like a Vietnam War every other month
Speaker 2: in the amount of people who are being killed. You
Speaker 2: must have seen some of this while you were still
Speaker 2: in Congress.
Speaker 4: China is coming out of a direct drug tray. Fits. All
Speaker 4: of that is a major major part of it. So
Speaker 4: is the cyber attacks on us. So is the fact
Speaker 4: that they expanding their business interests all over the world,
Speaker 4: but the South of Africa, at America, North Africa, Europe,
Speaker 4: China is coming out of from all directions. That's why
Speaker 4: the prison Trump you tell you that she has spread,
Speaker 4: I wouldn't trust him, trug and throw. He is the
Speaker 4: ultimate dams in China is the mooki everywhere. Their military
Speaker 4: is expanding dramatically, and you're right, drugs are a key compoter,
Speaker 4: but they got a psyche and occupants coming out direction.
Speaker 2: Bernana mate, I want to ask you to join the
Speaker 2: conversation and with a question I have for you, but
Speaker 2: also for the how do people on the street, the
Speaker 2: workers in the cities suffer from this? How do they
Speaker 2: how do they affect?
Speaker 6: Then they're there, you know, when you come into the
Speaker 6: neighborhoods where bodegas and cab drivers drop people, you know,
Speaker 6: and where people live, they're affected because it's their community
Speaker 6: consuming defen and all is their community consuming the drugs.
Speaker 6: Is their communities that are uh that that are involved
Speaker 6: in all this crime and all these shootings and all
Speaker 6: these murders. You know, this doesn't happen in wealthy neighborhoods.
Speaker 6: Of course, you're going to get a wealthy kid once
Speaker 6: in a while that becomes a junkie. But most of
Speaker 6: this is happening in the housing projects in Nische, Okay,
Speaker 6: in the in the Bronx and Brooklyn and Queens and
Speaker 6: and all over the areas where our community lives. So
Speaker 6: we're the ones deeply affected by this, okay, And we
Speaker 6: are the ones that need to start fighting back by
Speaker 6: putting the right people in office, and we're not doing that.
Speaker 2: They're also affected by it's their politicians who are being
Speaker 2: funded by this foreign money and being they.
Speaker 6: Are being funded. But understand something. The reason why everyone
Speaker 6: believes that the out of boroughs are all democratic you know, strongholds,
Speaker 6: they are wrong. The reason why they are thought to
Speaker 6: be democratic strongholders because every elected official is a Democrat.
Speaker 6: Your assemblyman, your senator, your counselman, your congressmen, you know.
Speaker 6: So you're surrounded by Democrats. But the truth of the
Speaker 6: matter is that these business people are not Democrats. They're Republicans.
Speaker 6: We just haven't gone after them. We haven't done anything
Speaker 6: to stop all this nonsense. Okay, So the drugs are
Speaker 6: affecting the Black community and the Hispanic community more than
Speaker 6: any community out there.
Speaker 2: Peter kinging last word to you, what's yournance? I mean
Speaker 2: not just your prognosis, but what's your you know, what's
Speaker 2: your idea how we can fix this prescription.
Speaker 4: We need to aden that we have to fight them
Speaker 4: at all fronts. Obviously drug use the main ones. Fire
Speaker 4: and money is another one. Also Chinese influence other governments
Speaker 4: to influence our government, our businesses, and also fire powers.
Speaker 4: We have to stay strong. All of this is to mind.
Speaker 4: You're right defence. I'm on my way to a funeral
Speaker 4: with a good friend, Charlie Norton. Nobody sorry, tell me
