Mel KHOST
And everyone clapped along the way and all of that.
Mel KHOST
Well, guess what? Everything that is happening in America right now is because Agenda 2030's clock is ticking and Obama and his friends and the Clintons and everyone involved, Soros, Omadar, you know, Brookings Council, I mean, Center for American Progress, all of them.
Mel KHOST
They all committed to the end of nation states by 2030.
Mel KHOST
And then Trump won, and we've been in a color revolution on U.S. soil run by the same people who've done that all over the world since the 50s when the Dulles brothers turned our State Department, CIA, USAID, National Endowment for Democracy, into— tentacles of the global governance agenda 2030 pact for the future model, which is a totalitarian globalist technocracy of full track and trace surveillance that is running right now in China.
Mel KHOST
And we will be living like China very soon.
Mel KHOST
And they will never, ever, ever allow there to be a Republican form of governance in America ever again.
Mel KHOST
It has been worked on now for 30 years by the Center for American Progress and the Open Society and their partners at the World Economic Forum and UN and all the NGOs from Gates to Clinton to Democracy, Inc.
Mel KHOST
But the American people seem to think I don't know what's going on.
Isabella WeberGUEST
And I hope that these are things that, you know, we can agree on, whether we are liberals or we are socialists or, you know, wherever you may fall on the isms spectrum.
Isabella WeberGUEST
And I mean, to maybe add a hopeful hope, sorry, and to maybe add a hopeful note here, Actually, Jared Bernstein, who was the chair of the Council of Economic Advisors under Biden, has just started this project at the Center for American Progress on price controls for essentials, including, for example, a policy package for food affordability that involves a price policy for a basket of essentials that is modeled on the Mexican case, which is a case that I've been talking about quite a bit in recent years and I think is a big inspiration that I'm also talking about in the book, where the idea is that You know, you define a basket of essential goods and then the price of this basket is kept stable through an agreement between the grocery chains and the state.
Isabella WeberGUEST
And in most cases, the grocery sector is extremely concentrated.
Isabella WeberGUEST
So it's really just a handful of companies that dominate that sector.
Scott ParkinHOST
were going to have Lawrence Summers do project 2029, I believe.
Scott ParkinHOST
And then he got taken out by his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, if I remember correctly, at Center for American Progress.
Chris RiversGUEST
Yeah.
Chris RiversGUEST
And those efforts are important because you can take these big ideas, you can take these narratives.
Todd MossGUEST
Right.
Todd MossGUEST
You've got really political ones, most famously the Heritage Foundation on the right, Center for American Progress on the left.
Todd MossGUEST
And you've got a whole bunch of bipartisan like like we are or very technical think tanks.
Todd MossGUEST
And then you've got an array.
33 MINS LATER
Todd MossGUEST
Some very clearly know exactly what they're doing.
Todd MossGUEST
They're very focused on their mission and their mission might not be, you know, it's not our mission.
Todd MossGUEST
You know, you know, the Center for American Progress, their mission is to get Democrats elected.
Todd MossGUEST
heritage has a very, very clear, explicit mission.
Todd MossGUEST
Right.

Gil DuranGUEST
So that's the trick of the whole center centrist thing.
Gil DuranGUEST
And, you know, people like the Center for American Progress, et cetera, they all fall for that.
Gil DuranGUEST
They're all busy fighting the left.
Gil DuranGUEST
Right.
PatriceNARRATOR
Benjamin Hovland, who was ousted by Mr. Trump from the Independent Bipartisan Federal Election Assistance Commission earlier this year, said he worried the various actions By the administration, we're serving a pretext for lawsuits after election day based on dubious claims of non-citizen voting and fraud in the electoral process.
PatriceNARRATOR
What the DOJ is tipping its hand to is stepping in as essentially the president's personal law firm to try to undercut the credibility of election results they don't like, said Mr. Hovland, a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress.
PatriceNARRATOR
And that is a pretty horrible process.
PatriceNARRATOR
Ending on a lighter note, old enough for a driver's license, they're in no rush.

Mel KHOST
You can take that down.
Mel KHOST
Now, moving on, I want to also say going into the midterms, there's something you should know about because, of course, everyone's talking about affordability and that can be manipulated by the international banking cartel and those involved in the controlled demolition of America within our country, like Center for American Progress and Brookings and Open Society and all the funding and all the billionaires that fund them.
Mel KHOST
But.
Mel KHOST
We should really be happy because National Crime Victimization Survey shows violent crime plummeted dramatically since 2025, dropping 25% and 19% respectively.
Mel KHOST
Serious violent crime down 25 percent.
Mel KHOST
Property crime down 19 percent.
Mel KHOST
If we can actually do something about the subversive open society, George Soros and his son and Progressive Inc. and John Podesta and Center for American Progress and Brookings and the Brennan Center and all these, frankly, destructive organizations that want America to be a third world country.
Mel KHOST
It will get even lower because their AGs and DAs and city council members that they're all running and paying for to get into office to destroy America from within will no longer be funded to take over our country, which is what's happening now.
Katy TurHOST
They're also spending it on politics.
