Topic: Mike Pompeo

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is criticized for allegedly sabotaging the Trump administration while appearing as an ally on Fox News. The host compares the current troop levels in the Middle East to the 110,000 personnel required to take Iwo Jima, noting that the current force is insufficient for a sustained invasion. Joe Kent's analysis of the situation as a "trap" is highlighted.

Hinkle recounts a conversation with Nicolas Maduro, who expressed a desire to work with Donald Trump but claimed his efforts were blocked by John Bolton and Mike Pompeo. He warns that a U.S. occupation of Venezuela would face a 2-million-strong armed militia and skilled guerrilla forces, making it a deadlier conflict than Vietnam. Jones acknowledges the danger of the situation, noting that the militias have vowed to resist any foreign-installed government regardless of central military actions.

Footage is analyzed showing Benjamin Netanyahu discussing a book titled *The Jews Against Rome* with Mike Pompeo, where Netanyahu remarks that they "have to win the next one." The host interprets this as a direct threat to the United States, linking it to Netanyahu's previous comments about 9/11 benefiting Israel.

The FBI reportedly has a secret "UAP working group" that sought protection from personnel changes during the Trump administration. Skepticism is expressed toward certain "Intel whistleblowers" who refuse to testify in secure SKIF environments, suggesting they may be pawns of the Department of Defense. The discussion also links the FBI and CIA to the management of Jeffrey Epstein and the targeting of Julian Assange under Mike Pompeo.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe's recent public appearances have sparked discussion about the administration's alignment with Israeli interests. Connections between Ratcliffe's family, prominent law firms, and former officials like Mike Pompeo suggest a coordinated effort to prioritize Israeli security policy. This "internal court intrigue" is viewed by some as a soft coup by foreign intelligence services to shape the executive branch's agenda.

The discussion returns to the 12-day war in Iran, with Jones claiming that Israel is using visual propaganda of craters to push for full regime change. He identifies the Israel lobby, Lindsey Graham, and Mike Pompeo as figures working to sabotage peace deals. Jones warns that any upcoming terror attacks should be viewed with suspicion, as Israeli-connected think tanks are already preparing to censor "false flag" narratives.

Historical examples of state-sponsored provocations, such as the sinking of the USS Maine, the Gulf of Tonkin incident, and the attack on the USS Liberty, are cited as templates for a potential "USS Liberty 2.0" event. Mike Pompeo is accused of setting the stage for these events by hyping the threat of Iranian IRGC terror cells within the United States. The narrative suggests that globalists will use these manufactured crises to derail peace deals and force the U.S. into a direct military confrontation with Iran.

A committee including John Bolton, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama is accused of maintaining influence within the CIA and NSA to block the Trump agenda. Whistleblower reports from James O'Keefe suggest that Pentagon officials have plotted to prevent the deployment of the National Guard during civil unrest. The strategy involves using corporate media to frame the administration as a dictatorship while NGOs destabilize major cities.

Alex Jones claims that "Operation Spiderweb" was a mutinous action by a "Coalition of the Willing" involving Mike Pompeo and Lindsey Graham to escalate the war against Russia. He asserts that while Zelensky publicly calls for peace, Ukrainian forces are using terrorism and underwater drones to target Russian infrastructure. Jones describes the EU as more tyrannical than the former Soviet Union.

Revelations from Edward Snowden regarding Vault 7 are used to argue that the CIA possesses tools to break into encrypted apps like Signal to plant evidence or misrepresent communications. The Biden administration's promotion of Signal is framed as a strategy to monitor users through known vulnerabilities. The host asserts that transparency and "straight shooting" are the only defenses against these clandestine operations.

A clip of Mike Pompeo admitting that the CIA trains officers to "lie, cheat, and steal" is used to illustrate the agency's deceptive nature. The host shares personal anecdotes about his uncle's involvement in clandestine operations and the recruitment of "white hats" who eventually leave the agency after witnessing corruption. The segment frames the CIA as a primary obstacle to American sovereignty.

Donald Trump has reportedly stripped the security details of Anthony Fauci, John Bolton, and Mike Pompeo. Trump stated he would not feel responsible if "anything happened" to them, noting they have enough personal wealth to hire their own security. Fauci is criticized for having 15 federal marshals assigned to him 24 hours a day at taxpayer expense despite being a private citizen.

Donald Trump has revoked the security clearances and protection for several former officials, including Mike Pompeo and John Bolton. Speaker Mike Johnson announced a new January 6 subcommittee, chaired by Barry Loudermilk, to investigate the previous committee's alleged destruction of records. The new committee will include a vote for Democratic members to ensure it is legally constituted for Justice Department referrals.

Donald Trump reportedly declined to release the full JFK assassination records in 2017 following pressure from CIA Director Mike Pompeo. Judge Andrew Napolitano claims Trump later suggested the files contained secrets so sensitive they could not be disclosed to the public. These records, originally organized by Robert Kennedy shortly after the 1963 assassination, remain a point of contention between the executive branch and intelligence agencies.

Candace Owens joins the broadcast to warn against the infiltration of "war hawks" and neocons into the second Trump administration. She specifically criticizes the potential inclusion of Mike Pompeo and Nikki Haley, claiming they represent the deep state. Owens expresses concern that Marco Rubio is being floated for Secretary of State, arguing he is "bought and paid for."

Donald Trump publicly announced that Mike Pompeo and Nikki Haley will not be part of his new administration after being presented with clips of their past criticisms. Jones claims credit for alerting Trump to Pompeo's previous support for the Mar-a-Lago raid and the Jack Smith investigation. The discussion shifts to General Mark Milley, whom Jones accuses of treason for allegedly contacting Chinese officials to undermine Trump's command of the nuclear codes.

Roger Stone explains how Mike Pompeo and Nikki Haley were excluded from the Trump administration after their past loyalty was questioned. Stone claims Pompeo previously convinced Trump to withhold JFK assassination records and defended the Jack Smith investigation. He credits Tulsi Gabbard for showing Trump the relevant clips and praises Susie Wiles as a capable, loyal choice for Chief of Staff.

Donald Trump is urged to declare the current administration an "occupied government" and move forward with a hardcore populist agenda. Warnings are issued against bringing "globalists" like Mike Pompeo or Bill Gates into the administration, dismissing the idea of "3D chess" or keeping enemies close. The segment references Trump's past mistake with Mitt Romney as evidence that globalists cannot be reformed through business-style cooperation.

Jones warns that "cornered rats" in the globalist establishment, including Bill Gates and George Soros, will not give up power easily. He cautions Donald Trump against bringing establishment figures like Mike Pompeo or Mitt Romney into the administration, arguing they serve a different "cult." Jones asserts that globalists desire austerity and the Great Reset rather than American prosperity.

Donald Trump announced on X that neither Nikki Haley nor Mike Pompeo will be invited to join his new administration. Alex Jones claims credit for this development, stating that he and Roger Stone provided Trump with evidence of Pompeo's past disloyalty.
