Kash’s Corner: Trump’s 3rd Indictment and the Criminalization of Thought and Free Speech

8/6/2023
“You can’t help but notice the coincidence that it was literally immediately following the Devon Archer testimony,” says Kash Patel. In this episode of Kash’s Corner, we discuss the third indictment of former President Donald Trump, the precedent it sets, and why he believes the judge should recuse herself. “Look past the Trump cycle of 2024. Go to ’28. Go to ’32. Are we going to say that any president or anybody running for president who decides to say they won the election, but didn’t, is going to be prosecuted for that? I mean, how are we going to get people to run for elected office if the fear is you can’t say you won anymore?” says Kash Patel. “We don’t live in the Soviet Union. We live in the United States of America, where the Constitution dictates our freedom of speech. And if they’re going to criminalize that, which they have done here, it is a very dangerous slope,” says Kash Patel. Also an announcement from Kash Patel: “With the campaign for the presidency in full swing, we’re going to take a time-out on Kash’s Corner’s weekly publication. But fear not, Jan and I are going to come back regularly and me specifically on Epoch Times, EpochTV, and NTD to do weekly, regular hits and interviews when our schedules permit. And we will return to Kash’s Corner after the 2024 election cycle. So fear not. You’ll have more of me and Jan than you know what to do with. But we appreciate the audience’s understanding, especially with the scheduling in the pending 2024 election cycle.”

6/26/2023
In this Season 7 finale of Kash’s Corner, we take a look at John Durham’s recent testimony in Congress and Hunter Biden reaching a deal to plead guilty to tax charges—exactly as Kash Patel predicted on the show in early May. What have we learned from this six-year investigation into the Russiagate saga? What key question did special counsel John Durham fail to properly answer? And why didn’t Congress press him on it?

Kash’s Corner: What’s Next in Trump Classified Docs Case? What Should the Defense Strategy Be?

6/18/2023
What happens now after the arraignment of former President Donald Trump in the classified-documents case? Will there be pre-trial motions? What will the government do? Is the defense team fully formed, and who should be on it? Why should the defense wait before filing a motion to dismiss? And what do we know about the audio recordings of conversations between the Bidens and the owner of Burisma that Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) has been talking about? We discuss all this and more on this week’s episode of Kash’s Corner.

Kash’s Corner: Trump Indictment, Two-Tier System of Justice, and What This Means for America

6/17/2023
On June 8, former President Donald Trump said he’d been informed by his attorneys that he had been indicted by special counsel Jack Smith as part of the investigation into his handling of classified documents. It’s the two-tier system of justice playing out yet again, argues Kash Patel, from Russiagate to impeachment No. 1 to impeachment No. 2 to the weaponization of the Jan. 6 committee to the cover-up of the Hunter Biden laptop scandal. What does all this mean for America? Kash Patel and Jan Jekielek sit down for a live show of Kash’s Corner in Prescott, Arizona.

Kash Patel: It’s Time to Fence the FBI’s Money and Force Them to Release Document on Biden Family Dealings

6/3/2023
The FBI has repeatedly declined a request from House Oversight Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) to hand over an internal document detailing an alleged “criminal scheme” involving President Joe Biden’s family. Rep. Comer says he’s going to move forward on holding FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress. What Congress should do, says Kash Patel, is to fence the money of the FBI. “There’s a fencing process on Capitol Hill. Without getting into all the details … you can just imagine an imaginary fence goes around a big pile of money, and Congress has the lock and key. And if the FBI wants their big pile of money in this fence, they have to comply with a request from Congress, i.e. give us the document unredacted.” We also discuss former FBI Director James Comey’s response to the Durham report and recent news that the DOJ has charged two alleged Chinese agents for a bribery scheme targeting Falun Gong practitioners in the United States. The suspected Chinese agents bribed what they thought was an IRS official—actually an FBI undercover agent—with thousands of dollars, and promised $50,000 more, in an attempt to strip the tax-exempt status of an entity run by Falun Gong practitioners, according to court filings.

Kash’s Corner: FBI, IRS Whistleblowers Detail Retaliation; Grassley, Johnson Should Ask Durham Questions Under Oath

5/26/2023
In this episode of Kash’s Corner, we take a look at the alarming pattern of retaliatory conduct across the DOJ, FBI, and IRS. IRS whistleblowers say their entire team was removed from the Hunter Biden tax fraud case. We also take a look at a letter from Senators Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) asking Special Counsel John Durham for more details about the former FBI officials who declined to cooperate with his investigation into the origins of the Russia probe. “We need to find out why John Durham failed to call in the likes of [James] Comey, [Peter] Strzok, [Bill] Priestap, [Kevin] Clinesmith, Glenn Simpson of Fusion GPS, and others,” Patel says. Sens. Grassley and Johnson should call John Durham to testify under oath in a publicized interview, according to Patel. Lastly, we take a look at recent reporting in The New York Times that the FBI’s investigation into the Clinton Foundation for alleged corruption was not only closed in 2021, but that all the evidence was “returned or otherwise destroyed,” the New York Times writes, citing the FBI.

Kash Patel: Durham Failed. With No Real Accountability, the Russiagate Playbook Will Be Repeated Again and Again

5/26/2023
“This was the one opportunity for John Durham to fix the two-tier system of justice. He was the man charged with that duty. And he had that opportunity. And in my opinion, Jan, he failed. And this will only degrade the FBI and DOJ and our intel communities further,” says Kash Patel, who was the chief investigator of the House Intelligence Committee’s Russiagate investigation back in 2017 and 2018. “In the Durham report, it states that Kevin Clinesmith declined to participate. What do you mean ‘declined to participate’? Jan, do you remember the Mueller investigation? Was anyone allowed to decline their participation?” Patel says. “Individuals like Kevin Clinesmith, Peter Strzok, James Comey, Andy McCabe … none of them were brought under subpoena and compelled to testify,” Patel says. So what’s next? And in particular, for the Americans who feel increasingly disillusioned about accountability, what does Kash Patel see as the way forward?

Kash Patel: Release Full Subpoenaed Bank Records of Biden and His Family; New Details Emerge in Hunter Laptop Coverup

5/13/2023
This week on Kash’s Corner, we discuss a major new House Oversight memorandum released on Wednesday. Investigators say millions of dollars from China and other foreign entities went to President Joe Biden and nearly a dozen members of his family. New details have also emerged surrounding the origins of the “51-intel letter” discrediting the Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020. The CIA expedited review of the letter for confidential information, allowing former acting CIA director Michael Morell to successfully get it published in Politico just days before the final presidential debate between then-President Donald Trump and Biden, according to a new House Judiciary report. At the debate, then-candidate Biden cited the letter as evidence that the Hunter Biden laptop story was “a bunch of garbage.”

Kash’s Corner: The DC Handshake Coverup and the Hunter Biden Scandal

5/8/2023
“I believe Hunter Biden will be charged, and soon, but I think they’ll roll it up into what we call this global plea agreement, where he basically gets charged with some Mickey Mouse lower-level offenses, walks into a super light sentence, and then they will cover up the cover-up,” says Kash Patel. This week on Kash’s Corner, we discuss recent statements by Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Attorney General Merrick Garland related to investigations into President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden, the end of federal vaccine mandates—with some key exceptions—and the Biden administration’s recent announcement that the United States is sending 1,500 more active-duty troops to the U.S.-Mexico border.

Kash Patel: How an Ex-CIA Boss ‘Rigged’ Three Election Cycles, From Benghazi to Russia Collusion to Hunter’s Laptop

4/28/2023
Former acting CIA director Michael Morell was recently asked under oath about the origins of the intel letter discrediting the Hunter Biden laptop story as possible Russian disinformation. He testified under oath that a call from now-Secretary of State Antony Blinken “triggered” the creation of the letter, which was signed by 51 current and former members of the intelligence community. When questioned further, he said, “one intent was to share our concern with the American people that the Russians were playing on this issue; and two, it was [to] help Vice President Biden.” “I wanted [Biden] to win the election,” he testified, according to a letter sent to Blinken by House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan and Intelligence Chairman Mike Turner. This isn’t the first time this ex-CIA boss has stirred up hot-button issues in the lead-up to a presidential election, according to John Solomon and Nick Givas’s reporting in Just the News. In 2012, he edited official talking points about the deadly 2012 Benghazi terrorist attack to remove references to al-Qaeda. And in the summer of 2016, he was one of the first major figures to publicly claim Trump was a Russian asset in a New York Times op-ed. In this episode of Kash’s Corner, we also take a look at Sen. Chuck Grassley’s recent allegations that the FBI falsely labeled information as Russian disinformation “to bury it”—and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s seeking to prevent Trump from speaking about the evidence in his case.

Kash’s Corner: How Did the Pentagon Leaker Get Access to All These Documents? Multiple Secret CCP Police Stations in America Exposed

4/22/2023
In this episode of Kash’s Corner, we take a look at the two Chinese men recently arrested by the FBI in connection with a secret Chinese police station in New York City. This is just one among multiple Chinese Communist Party (CCP) police outposts in the United States, according to the watchdog group Safeguard Defenders. In two separate cases, the DOJ is charging 40 Chinese officials and police with conducting a coordinated harassment campaign against Chinese dissidents residing in the United States. And we continue looking at the Pentagon leaks. How did the suspected leaker, a 21-year-old Air National Guardsmen, get access to so many pages of classified documents?

‘Two-Tiered System of Justice’: Kash Patel Dissects the 34-Count Trump Indictment and 16-Page Statement of Facts

4/8/2023
“As a prosecutor, you either have the facts and the law to bring the case or you don’t. You’re not supposed to go in there and create a novel legal theory. That’s the job of the state legislature,” says Kash Patel. In this episode, Kash Patel and Jan Jekielek do a deep dive into the 34-count indictment and the 13-page statement of facts released on April 4 after former President Donald Trump was arraigned in the Stormy Daniels “hush money” payment case. What is the legal basis of the case? Why did Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg issue a speaking indictment? What does Patel think the defense’s strategy should be?

Kash’s Corner: Sam Bankman-Fried Bribed CCP Officials With Over $40 Million; Moderna’s $400 Million ‘Kickback’ to NIH Scientists?

4/1/2023
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), which is part of the NIH, received $400 million from Moderna in a “catch-up payment,” according to a newly disclosed contract that The Epoch Times obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request. So where is the money going? Which government officials are getting the money? Kash Patel argues that it poses a major conflict of interest for scientists at the NIH to be able to receive royalties from patents. “Do people in the Department of Agriculture who work with private-sector farmers and come up with some new seed receive millions of dollars from the farming industry? No,” Patel said. “What about the army guy that comes up with the technology for our next aerial asset, [and] we enter into a contract with Lockheed Martin or Boeing to make billions of dollars worth of this? Is he going to get a royalty from that? Absolutely not,” he said. The NIH received up to $2 billion in royalties from 34 drug contracts between 1991 and 2019, according to a report from the U.S. Government Accountability Office. We also take a look at new allegations of bribery in FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried’s case. On top of the 12 counts he was already indicted on, he’s now being charged for allegedly bribing Chinese officials to the tune of over $40 million to get his accounts in China unfrozen.

Kash’s Corner: Trump Grand Jury Delayed; New CCP-Brokered Saudi-Iran Deal Is Disaster for the US

3/27/2023
Why was the Manhattan grand jury unexpectedly delayed in the alleged Trump “hush money” case? Did District Attorney Alvin Bragg withhold exculpatory evidence? “As a prosecutor, you’re not allowed to withhold evidence of innocence or something that might be damaging to your case to the grand jury you’re presenting to. And that’s essentially what Costello said,” says Kash Patel, in reference to recent testimony by Michael Cohen’s former lawyer, Robert Costello. We also take a look at the recent Saudi-Iran deal brokered by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and the CCP’s ambitions to replace the petrodollar with the yuan. China has also offered a 12-point peace plan to end the Russia-Ukraine War. Vladimir Putin welcomed the proposal during a recent joint press conference with Xi Jinping. “It’s a total farce for China to go in and say, we’re going to be the peace negotiators … They’re committing genocide in their own country,” Kash Patel says. “But just think about the messaging and the propaganda that the CCP gains from this. … They’re getting the narrative out there that China, the CCP, is the peace negotiators of the modern day, not the United States of America.” Follow EpochTV on social media: Twitter: https://twitter.com/EpochTV Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/EpochTV Truth Social: https://truthsocial.com/@EpochTV Gettr: https://gettr.com/user/epochtv Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EpochTVus Gab: https://gab.com/EpochTV Telegram: https://t.me/EpochTV

Kash Patel: Here’s How Jim Jordan Can Set Trap to Expose Collusion Between Big Tech and Intelligence Agencies

2/20/2023
Recently, the New York Times published a lengthy piece claiming John Durham’s investigation was flawed and “failed to find wrongdoing in the origins of the Russia inquiry.” Subsequently, a number of congressmen have called for Durham and Bill Barr to be investigated. What’s really going on? “They do these preemptive strikes when they know something is about to happen,” says Kash Patel. We also discuss House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan’s (R-Ohio) investigation into the federal government’s collusion with big tech to suppress free speech. Jordan recently subpoenaed the CEOs of Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, and Microsoft. Patel says Jordan should also send subpoenas in the other direction—to the FBI and DOJ—for all communications, contracts, and agreements with the tech giants. “Once you run those two subpoenas on a parallel track, Jan, then you can get some real documentation and answers for the American people because someone is going to get caught lying,” Patel says. And finally, we take a look at the Chinese spy balloon, the other downed aerial objects, and the train filled with toxic chemicals in Ohio that recently derailed. Are these events connected?

Kash Patel: Biden Administration Diverts Attention From National Security Failures—From Chinese Spy Balloon to Fentanyl Crisis

2/11/2023
“I can tell you without equivocation that during my tenure, there was not one shred of intelligence that came across that showed that even the possibility of a balloon from the Chinese Communist Party or otherwise was going to cross the territorial waters of the United States of America,” says Kash Patel. Defense officials have said Chinese spy balloons entered U.S. airspace at least three times during the Trump administration. During a press briefing on Feb. 6, Air Force Gen. Glen VanHerck, commander of the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), said that those Chinese spy balloons had gone undetected at the time. Kash Patel argues the Biden administration is trying to distract from its own failures. We discuss the Chinese spy balloons and President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address.

Kash Patel: Classified Docs Scandal Meant to Stop Biden from Running in 2024

1/20/2023
“I don’t believe for one second that this investigation of the classified documents began in November of 2022 like we’re being told now,” says Kash Patel. Classified documents have been found in multiple locations linked to President Joe Biden, including the Biden Penn Center and in the garage and an adjacent room at his Wilmington home. Hunter Biden, who does not have a security clearance, had access to the garage. The FBI and DOJ’s handling of the Biden classified documents scandal puts the two-tiered system of justice in America on full display, Patel says. And the timing is no coincidence. “I still believe, as I said last week, that there’s going to be more and more and more classified documents found … There are people in the Democratic Party and the establishment media who don’t want Joe Biden to run for reelection … And they’re clearing the political wickets for whoever might come next,” says Patel.
