the Communist Party never really trusted it's American acolytes. Always wanted to have foreign born controllers here. I mean this is a matter of command and control. So right from the Russian Revolution forward, you see the Left, the Communist Left, the fellow Travelers agitating for immigration in order to be able to bring in these kinds of people, bring in these Legions who are also hostile to the American way as part of their unrestricted warfare we might call it today. --Diana West

7:35. Stanley Rothman's book on the new left. He made the point there that there are two counter types on the new left: the gentile people on the new left, who are in genuine revolt against the families, and the Jews who were supportive by the families.
7:45. It does continue today, and I would even add that the New Left in my experience and in analysis, I go into this in The Red Thread, the New Left was just a name, a new name, for a younger generation of the Old Left. They tried to pretend that it was something different. It really wasn't. It was just a continuation of the same communist war against America. But that is true, and these people replicate themselves. You mentioned we only scratched the surface in terms of outing any of these people. Most of them never suffered anything in terms of coming to trial for, say, treason or something, something serious like that. That did not happen except they point to the Rosenberg case. I always think of them as sort of small fry in a much larger conspiracy, one conspiracy amongst so many so these people were never truly revealed the thought of people like Whitaker Chambers and Elizabeth Bentley Igor krasenko The Defector out of Canada they believe there were multiple rings that were being run in the middle of the 20th century that never ever were exposed now they only had a window into Wonder two of these rings and some other people so if you had all these other Rings running inside the federal bureaucracy well who did those people Ensure moved into their seats into their slots into their Network after they left so we've seen this replication of regenerations of like-minded people who are now, we call it the Deep state, now call it the Swamp, but this is the origin of it, and it does go back that far. People tend to think everything went wrong with Obama, you know, talking about the short memory we observe. But it goes back at least 100 years in terms of the assault. Also, through immigration, to tip onto your bailiwick here, but the notion that the Communist Party never really trusted it's American acolytes. Always wanted to have foreign born controllers here. I mean this is a matter of command and control. So right from the Russian Revolution forward, you see the Left, the Communist Left, the fellow Travelers agitating for immigration in order to be able to bring in these kinds of people, bring in these Legions who are also hostile to the American way as part of their unrestricted warfare we might call it today.
10:13. Can you tell us what the Venona transcripts are?
10:20. Sure, they even know the transcripts are decrypts, about 2000 released decrypts of KGB conversations that took place largely in the 1940s that were copied by Western Union during World War II. And they were actually along the order of something like 2 million of these communications. We only have about 2,000 that have been released, and they attest to the maneuvering and more administrative in some ways activities of Soviet agents working here, many of them, hundreds of them, inside the federal government and surrounding institutions with their controllers with Moscow Center. They were released, it is important to know, by the US government by the intelligence agencies. So in other words, it wasn't as if there was a wholesale release and scholars could go pick and choose what they would like to read. We were given a set of these things and we've been using them ever since sort of to corroborate what the actual deal . . .
11:25. When were they released?
11:26. They were released in the 1990s . . . I would say early 90s, 1993, '94. After we started seeing some revelations coming out of Moscow, not before. Again, they were control-released by government authorities in the former Soviet Union. So, in other words, we do see this not as something really a free-wheeling revelation, but a controlled revelation which has been very helpful but I do not believe it attests to what was really known inside the security agencies.
12:02. So the question is why doesn't Donald Trump just order them to be released?
12:06. I don't know if he's aware of this particular not you know at this point Tempest I mean I wish I actually Drew up a plan to declassifier in Chief in 2016 because there are just piles and piles probably miles and miles archives that should be of archives that should be unredacted and released to the public that go back 100 years 80 years spy rings that everyone is long deceased of black ink if you look at the paperwork and then going forward through so many other scandals that have been kept from the American people and important National Security issues that tend to by staying secret perpetuate the power of the swamp the stature of the traitors in our midst and all the rest of it. They don't protect anyone good in other words.
13:04. One of the things that fascinates me about this is this is so often hereditary. That's one of the things that Rothman pointed out the new Left literally was the second generation of the old left and of course they've continued to reproduce themselves the strong personal connections across the generations. One of my other great interests is you know have a great speech which Enoch Powell who gave a great speech that kicked off the immigration debates in Britain in 1968 and Powell was sort of like a subtle Trump in that he was able to throw bombs and can then defend himself one of the bombs he threw in the years after he gave his great speech on immigration and was a major figure in British politics, conducting a kind of guerilla war against the establishment. At one point, he said he wondered if the revelations about communist infiltration the Hallmark of the Department of Interior for them that there had been communist infiltration there, if it hadn't continued to be responsible for the Paradox of the immigration policy where they're letting in people who were obviously of course his point was he simply said I said I wonder I wonder about it I wonder about it too in the context of the US where is immigration policy in the US come from?
14:46. Absolutely there has to be because no Institution was impervious to the same kind of subversion infiltration embeddedness. I mean this is what you really do start to get a better sense of when you look at the Venona, the Vasiliaev, the FBI declassifications, the Senate sessions, that were declassified later, you know, the executive sessions later declassified. I mean this is what comes through loud and clear. Many of our lawmakers had a real handle on it going back to the 1950s and we're doing things about it but they were constantly assaulted by the same left and media infiltration is also something real. Whittaker Chambers wrote about the communist cell in Time Magazine. We know about the various departments and agencies of the US government that were infiltrated. So, yes, immigration is an important, important tactic here. As I mentioned earlier you know there was a very good Roosevelt, I consider him, Archibald Roosevelt, who is the son of Teddy Roosevelt. He was very big on unmasking communist infiltration, and he gave a really important testimony before Congress in the mid 50s. And he was discussing how communism used immigration everywhere to advance their armies going back to the Russian Revolution and forward. He was using the example, for example, Hungary after the Russian Revolution. You saw Bolsheviks entering Hungary after World War II, the same, so that by the time you get to the takeover in 1956 of Hungary you had this whole Trojan Army in place and he was making the case at the same thing happened here. So you are exactly dead on in terms of people coming in through immigration and then the government pushing for this kind of thing from the Left. I mean again, it's always the same kind of combination. You actually have the hardened actors and agents then you have your fellow travelers who believe in the same goals, and you also have your dupes. I mean always with these activities there are so many people who have no idea they are being manipulated, however, they are part of essentially what we might think of as communist fronts. Our government becomes a Communist front, various sectors of a Communist front once there is this kind of infiltration. I mean just look at the Roosevelt White House, where you have senior advisors to the president later unmasked just in Venona as Soviet agents, whether it was Lachlan Currie, some of the other people in the offices there. The case against Harry Hopkins is quite strong. I go through that piece by piece in American Betrayal. I mean these were the men influencing American policy making at the highest level. So, yes, it definitely happened in the State Department we know, and the related immigration agencies. Has to be. Has to be.
17:42. The Red Thread is basically your account of how the intelligence agencies organized a coup against Trump. Just tell us who the chief actors were.
18:03. We're looking at your Brennans, your Comeys, your Clappers, your Nelly Ohr from the group Fusion GPS that came up with the dossier. Christopher Steele her opposite number of former MI6, she had . . even
18:21. are you saying these people obviously had left wing connections obviously before we even saw them doing this kind of thing.
18:31. Well I don't think they were obvious to anyone but themselves. But they are obvious to anyone who takes a look to see what motivates these people. I mean what motivates these people could I find their ideas because they are such cyphers when you see them in testifying or in print or just look at their CVs. You don't really know who they are except officials but it turned out there was quite a lot of information about a number of them often in their own words, whether their college thesis. John Brennan, for example, I mean, James Comey, for example, or John Brennan's Master thesis. His own John Brennan actually fessed up in public that he had been, that he had voted for Gus Hall in 1976 in his CIA interview and was not cut off. I mean this is such an extraordinary thing.
19:29. People tend to think of the FBI particularly the CIA as being right wing. But of course the Nazis started it all particularly the CIA it's always been a liberal establishment operation.
19:41. It's always been prey to infiltrators it's been prey to disinformation and party to it I mean this is the reality that we have to accept about these agencies the FBI I think fell at a later date but when you look at James Comey's own writings, his own behaviors he's a very much an "ends justifies the means" social justice warrior. His ideal to this day starting from the time he was a young man and a self-professed communist at William and Mary was Reinhold Neibuhr. He claims Reinhold Neibuhr to this day as his leading intellectual influence. Well, Reinhold Neibuhr especially in the writings that Comey cites as having been so in influential on him was essentially a Marxist in a clerical collar, someone who was always pro-Soviet, pushing for recognition of the Soviet Union in the 1930s, always an opponent of the anti-communist of the day. He had a very clear record of writings actually, even proselytizing for violent overthrow of the established order on college campuses in the 1930s. I mean he was a real radical. And when you actually look at Comey the Communist falling in love intellectually . . .
21:00. Do you think that Comey has left wing connections when he was at college?
21:02. I don't know what connections he had but he described himself as a communist his own words in 2003 and my point being that Reinhold Neibuhr being his intellectual leader back when he was a communist it is very strange to me that someone who was not a communist is still so guided by him in terms of his communist leanings, social justice, using the law to redistribute wealth and justice, and these are the main ideas of Reinhold Neibuhr in the writings that Comey draws from. So he's certainly not your typical FBI recruit who would have come in under J Edgar Hoover. I mean this is what happened to that agency and he ran it. And was involved in this Palace coup against the president along with all of these other ideological cohorts Christopher Steele, . . .
21:58. What did you think they were . . . the curious thing about this is that it developed after the election. I guess they thought . . . what do you think they were actually aiming to do to, get him impeached, or what?
22:10. Well, I think hey they were trying to protect themselves and what had been going on inside this government for generations. I mean I think that the fact that they all took such dangerous steps rather than just simply let Trump go come back in 2 years, take over the Congress, I mean that's what we normally do when you get thrown out of power, you come back into power. So there was something abnormal here about these machinations, this International conspiracy that certainly efforts to subvert the election, the presidency, and the rest of it, and spy on the domestic opposition, that is not normal. And so when you ask yourself why would they risk everything, of course they assumed Hillary would win, but still do the seditious things, you have to start wondering what the game really was. My assessment of it is that they were, A) trying to cover everything up that they'd been doing; B) I think ideologically they could not be more opposed to Donald Trump and everything he stands for because he is the man who came to build the nation, again to impose, you know, to build a wall, to impose the immigration controls, to bring manufacturing home; in other words, to interrupt the New World Order, which had been in perfect motion since certainly 1945 in terms of taking away our sovereignty, our nationalism, and everything else, and ending up with this Global type governance, and International economy, and all the rest of it. And going back to that period . . . just remember who set up the UN, who set up the IMF. Two Soviet agents who worked very high, at high levels in the American government: Alger Hiss at the UN, and Harry Dexter White at the IMF. I mean that's pretty astonishing when you actually think about it and where we are.
24:00. I was very taken with the releases of the list of journalists in 2008 and 9 when it became obvious that all of these Elite Left-wing journalist from different and allegedly.
25:50. Well they'd work it out and publish it in a daily worker and other organs I mean it was a much slower day right now you can look on Twitter and look at the thought leaders and sort of pick it up right there. They probably don't need anything like journalists although they may have one I don't know but yes you notice the coordination you notice the pressure to coordinate the pressure not to say something else that's a big part of this as well some of it is staged I'm sure as you say some of it I think becomes a psychological just a psychological on scene pressure I mean people definitely know how to play up to someone and make sure their career continues in a certain way right? So someone I mean it is like a mass kind of psychosis I guess
