Tom, I think you ought to run for president. It might not be the job you want but I think it’s the job you’re training for with impact theory. It’s literally the epitome of working hard to acquire a set of skills to help human flourishing. People that want power don’t deserve it. People that don’t want it should wield it. You understand how to run a billion dollar company, which helps run the government. You care about empowering people shown by this channel and your previous works. You’re articulate and can debate also proven by this channel. You realize you can be wrong, and want to do what works and helps humans through their biological experience. The only thing I’ve heard you ask for from listening to this channel is briefs. So just go get the best briefs there are, presidential ones.
No such thing as an ex cia spy. When I hear any ex fbi or ex cia, I start laughing, you are going to get some truth mixed in with some lies. They all have to sign papers what they can disclose and what they can't, they know the consequences are very bad if they cross the line.
So true.. and if you look closely into this guy’s eyes, he’s soulless for some reason.. is it exactly this what happens when you join the cia does it come with the job description.. "we will suck your soul out of you"
@@HeavenlyMe11 yup! And look how - contrived his persona and appearance is, it's insulting if not a bit of cynicism from his handlers the message being sent as to the things they assume we identify with. Even the way he pronounces so many words as if READING them for the first time, and with cadence like he isn't thinking of these things on the fly adds to the almost conscious display of how these people see everyone else in society. And why do all the various personalities and eccentricities therein of people that are commonly interviewed on this type of podcast always have their own distinct persona until it comes to interviews with people from ABC agency's? Talk about a contrast to the totally bizarre extremes humanity can exhibit, these agency guys just always have - like an almost lab-grown, prepackaged and diluted affect, that is impossible not to see! I mean, does it work? One would think it does, or are they just doing a lot of "too much" because: infinite resources, just got 2 show that the money is being used somewhere on something? If some other intelligent civilization could look at us, and observe these things objectively, I could only imagine the eye rolls!
Once agency, always agency. I don't trust spooks. That's what they call each other BTW. Dated a guy in DIA. Later found out he was a pathogical liar. But, not about being a spook. His top secret security clearance was up for review and guess who they interviewed about him, his patriotism, and so forth. Not a fun interview to give the agency folks. Actually kind of disturbing. This guy is agency.
Yeah that was a really stupid thing for him to say, and right at the beginning of the podcast too... makes you think a lot of what he says is non-credible from there onwards. That was some ultra-cringe patriotism and delusion, because he seemingly made no mistake in his mind about what he said.
It blows my mind how dumb people are when you have the internet….we where attacked…wether it was a false flag attack is up to you to decide…. But we where attacked and we where unified IN THE BEGINNING, but once media coverage started happening the population realized we shouldn’t be there and UNIFIED again for our troops to leave
@@q6906 "allegedly" being the keyword. There's a very common pattern for the US to allegedly be a major provocateur of the hornets nest... USS Maddox was "attacked" while in Vietnamese waters, while there was obvious turmoil between the north and south. Why be there unless you want to be attacked and/or have a reason to start a war? It's very like the US to be the aggressor and then claim to be some sort of heroic victim for their own personal gains while stepping on others to get there.
When he said Haley for president I realized he was promoting propaganda from the military industrial complex. Considering her family owns a military consulting firm who directly benefits from war, and he obviously knows that since he's so informed and trained
Listen to enough of his interviews, and it becomes quite clear that this guy is just a young, smooth hipster version of John Brennan. Doing the rounds as "former" employees of Clowns In America. Nice try, guys. 😁
Do you even know who her family is.. And where her family comes from.. Cause I've done her genealogy.. On her and both her parents.. Her parents came from hindoostan in 1969.. Her father taught biology at Voorhes University(an HBCU) and her mother was an elementary school teacher(predominantly black/American Indian school) .. Where did you see or hear about her family being apart of the military industrial complex
The fact that he supports Nikki Haley showe he's for the military industrial complex. Let's not forget a CIA agent once said " we let the media do the lying for us"

Wouldn't it be nice if people understood that?? Or maybe know that declassified documents have declared the Gulf on Tonkin incident a complete fabrication... A lie that got millions of people killed, on both sides, for nothing.
Casey underestimated the will of the American people. If all our sources of videos recording real events are taken away from us, the last apparent source being TicTok , then yes. We will no longer have access to gauge any truth on.
Agreed! Considering corporations own the media, the lobbyists and most politicians it’s amazing we can still drive around freely. Well, until the next pandemic that is.
I think he meant opposing medias. When people didnt get along found something to agree in a subject, because there is a small piece of fact that was both discovered. It the same with media. By taking multiple opposing sources and they all agree in something its because some part of it is true even if aint totaly.
Example: Israel-Palestine conflict is happening. This is a fact, the reason and other details can be distorted to make confusion, but the fact remained that the war is happening. All media sources agree with that, there is evidence, footage and so on and on. This is a example of finding facts among lies.

I dont have that personal experience I'm not even from the same country but have a big interest in studying conflict (I wish they were just historical and not present day) but I totally agree to call Vietnam "unifying" is one of the dumbest things ever. I guess those students shot on campus were well & truly unified 🤷♂
Y'all need to go back and listen again, he obviously said not everyone but most people unified! Which is a fact. If you go based on the hippies who were getting high on cocaine along with everything they could snort or inhale under the sun, then no.. but reality was, initially most people did unify! Learn and listen before commenting.
Then after 4 years. You will be back in the same boat. This is us going through correction and the effects of injecting mass amounts of money into the system by stimulus, PPP and 0% interest loans...
I remember paying 99 CENTS A GALLON when President Donald Trump was in office. Whenever a democrat takes over the White House, gas and food prices have historically increased dramatically! Vote wisely this time or THEY WILL STARVE U.S. and worldwide citizens
@@brespeed3633 Not unless we the people do something right! Not just think in terms of a election cycle, but in Future, the futures for our Children or Grand children and beyond. First we have to get out and away from the Globalists' that will be our Biggest battle, Trump will start the process if he hasn't already. That is why so many are against him especially the Globalists. We are NOT a country, we are a corporation.. When trump was elected in 2016 He turned to the people and he was returning the country back to the people.. He never got to Finish what he started.. the distractions were unending. IF and when Trump is elected he can not do this alone he will need the Congress and House to work with him.
Your food and gas cost so much precisely because of Trump and the unprecedented 7.6 Trillion he added to the money supply. Republicans used to know these things before they became a party of sycophantic mouth breathers.
It's also worth noting he was never a spy, check his wiki or just google it. He was an intelligence officer which isn't a spy. Obviously the title is just clickbait because intel agents simply sift through open media and diplomatic documents so to assume he knows all the inner workings or anything of the sort is a stretch. The fact he talks so freely should also be another tell that the spooks have little worry of the info he had acquired.
"I love when “ex” CIA are allowed to be “ex” and talk out loud." Because it's BS. Everyone (including me) signs an NDA in effect *for life*. If you actually revealed secrets, you would be arrested immediately. This channel is a horseshit factory.
People should at least start thinking about what is happening around US. If that's all that comes from this, at least we're raising the thought process!
That is so true, I hear almost nothing about for example Putin that is destroying city after city, village after village, raping, torturing and mass murdering innocent people in Ukraine. Putin är ett existentiellt hot mot Ukraina. Putin is an existential threat to Ukraine. Putin is exterminating a whole generation of men in Ukraine. Glory to Ukraine Glory to the Heroes 💙💛 Im from Sweden.
You lost me at "I have some very intelligent friends who believe Trump is an existential threat." That is the literal definition of not very intelligent.
Trump has destroyed this country forever by undermining our electoral system and spreading lies and conspiracy theories. Look what is happening in the rescue effort in NC. Pure chaos because Trump and his followers are spreading lies.
The most important lesson I learned the hard way: NO ONE IS IMPERVIOUS TO MIS/DISINFORMATION. No one. Whatever your education level and how smart you think you are, we can all be influenced and/or triggered in some sort of rage, and/or somehow incapacitated. As AB says, it is not always about influencing, most of the time it's just about dividing and blowing on the flames of chaos. Remember. The man who angers you, conquers you...
Whenever someone says that, or something substantially similar to me, i always reply, “so when your not saying (whatever their “honest”phrase is) to me, your lying to me?
Or they want to be clear to you so there is no hidden agenda behind their response. It's a half full or half empty way of speaking depending on your perspective and personal bias.
I used to say "ok honestly... " or "I will be honest...." then I realised and now have changed it to "ok I will be blunt...." the reason is, I was always being honest except I was attempting to be tactful, polite, and when i used the "honestly" at that point i was saying it as a warning from that point on there will be no concern of the others feelings, I wont dance around the issue we just have to rip this band aid off. I say this as I am sure other use this in the same way and that you may need to be mindful of this as another possibility to consider
If - when- DJT becomes president, all those who feel they need to leave, need to go The rest of us will rebuild I've looked at several of Andrew's interviews and liked a lot of what he has to say but he's wayyy off if he can't see our destiny is under his leadership
Yes, people aren't falling for lies anymore. This guy is still a CIA plant and he is crooked. He is trying to sell the notion that the CIA was selling drugs TO Latin America to save lives? Hmm. The reality is the OPPOSITE. The CIA was selling drugs FROM Latin America TO US inner cities, creating massive drug crimes. This was all done for billionaire power and money.
What?!? I went into this comment section and thought 'jesus this is exactly whats wrong with the internet' 😆.... Main point being "Hes still CIA trying to manipulate us" - "Nothing he says matters because he likes Nikki Haley" etc. We cant just take interesting conversations for what they are anymore, everything HAS to have an agenda, and they have to be shit on in some way.
The dude actually said “belief systems don’t change as quickly as facts”. Ding ding ding we have a winner. If it changes, it’s not a fact. FACTS DO NOT CHANGE. It’s actually the only true thing about facts--they don’t change.
How did this conversation devolve into a silly dogmatic desire to uphold the integrity of the term "fact"? He's talking about fluid situations and responses in geopolitics . And yes, they do change all the time.
What was interesting is that Trump scares him enough to wear he is planning on leaving the country he probably is going to be arrested for his "work". @@th3azscorpio
@@Awakened-Mikael That is what Bustamante said "CIA Officer." I am wondering what that means to you. To me an Officer is a lot like manager that articulates or sets the goals and oversees the achievement of the goals.
Tom uses guests to make it look like an interview but then he talks over them the entire time. Constantly praising himself and his wealth. So self absorbed and self deprecating. 🤢🤮🤮
The CIA man helpfully made it obvious that he was promoting establishment propoganda within the first 2 minutes & saved me wasting time watching a political broadcast.
It's astounding to me that people eat this up, but I suppose I probably would too if I hadn't been exposed to information and narratives that challenge the American Empire's propaganda machine. He starts with an absurdity. "Look at Vietnam" as an example of an attack that unified Americans? WTF?! Is he trying to rewrite the history of the Vietnam War? We were the aggressors. Vietnam never attacked or invaded us, unless you count the Gulf of Tonkin incident, which is an example of the government blatantly lying to justify an unjust war: this isn't even controversial among historians. We killed hundreds of thousands so civilians and committed horrendous war crimes. On top of that, it motivated the biggest and most persistent antiwar movement in American history, so it definitely didn't unify the country.
You are right. He said Americans are sexually repressed and CIA agent will avoid having sex with foreign female agents. I believe he is doi6 propaganda 😂
@@zelda.1776 wow .. I think for the first time in your life, you are correct. Wow. All may be not lost. How long is the line for the booster these days??
I am 30 seconds into watching this video and I’ll make a wild speculation that at some point in the next 3 hours, there will be a discussion how invading our privacy is “the right thing to do”.
Me too and I feel like this is going to be 3 hours of propaganda lol. No thanks on this one haha. If he is a real C I A dude, I'm sure he'd tell us how things really are. lol. I was like, hell no, after he said a movie by the obamas was brilliant. Pass on that movie as well!
He comes off as a CIA plant trying to reinforce the status quo we lost before the times of turmoil (2016 and onwards). Nikki Haley would be a terrible leader lol.
My guess is because when his wife got pregnant that didn’t let him take the necessary leave l. They asked them to resign. His said this in one of many interviews about life in the cia. Edit: However, there are still things he cannot say. He’s saying a lot but nothing at all. He and his wife were both in cia.
That's been their agenda for years. They're trying to deconstruct everything. Race, Sex, Gender, Family Unit, Society, etc. Their goal is to create so much strife, so much horror, that people will unify under one flag world wide.
One of the most damaging forces against progress is the scores of people who position themselves as experts and spread misinformation - whether out of malice or ignorance. This interview is a great example. If you truly want to understand these topics, please be advised to be extremely cautious about any "facts" you come away with after watching this.
Well she started the war with Russia and Ukraine by getting Ukraine to join nato when they had contracts with Russia that nato wouldn’t join any of them on the border. So ww3 would be inevitable if she wins. The only way to avoid nuclear warfare is to get trump in office and he can end the war. This guys is very deceptive.
Andrew is recruiting for the CIA lol, Whenever something seems Too Cool or Too Awesome my spider sense start tingling and how he describes working for the CIA is just that. There is no way on earth it's that Rosy.
What he's saying though is really insightful information. About mindset and how to intake news in a way that promotes the pursuit of the most true information. I just feel like when it comes to talking about the CIA, it's a one sided story, which I guess is understandable. Don't bite that hadn't that fed you.
It can pay well and there are some great perks that come with it because it is a gov't job after all but from personal stories I've heard its typically a boring desk job like any other and if you don't like that it can slowly grind away at your soul. Also because you'll experience a ton of waste and mismanagement that will make you upset and question how can it be so bad. Now granted there are many jobs at the CIA and not all of them necessarily involve riding a desk. There are jobs where you could be stationed overseas or if you are military you could be hired on as a contractor or vice versa. But most of the people doing the "espionage" kind of work are analysts and intel officers that gather and push data around to higher ups or other departments. It is cool in the sense you get to read and handle secret or top secret information based on your clearance level and your contribution can help the overall effort but its not at all like the movies. Your are not going to be special agent Jack Ryan travelling around the globe, interrogating assets, sneaking around killing bad guys and preventing a plot to kill the president.
This guy - the guest is an "operative" given the assignment "USA- freedom takedown"- the promise..." You and your family and following generations will be safe and taken care of for life..... you would be the only one that needs to SWAY the narrative - wouldn't that be worth doing what we ask you to do?"
Please Note: From what I have seen of Andrew Bustamante, though he is Ex-CIA he appears to actually be a Good Guy and speaks a lot of Truth. - HOWEVER. When you are dealing with someone who comes from within the Intelligence Agencies there is a reasonable level of Expectations Held that they should have a fair level of UNDERSTANDING of International Geo-Politics. And Bustamante's take on what is Driving the situation in Israel and Palestine, his analysis and summary falls completely short of an adequate response. Anyone who knows anything about what is really happening in our world today understands that the Rothschild's and the British Led Globalist Cabal not only Completely Control Israel, but the Entire Global Geo-Political Landscape. Not even bringing the New World Order into the conversation about Israel and Palestine is an INSULT to our Intelligence. I have been impressed by his previous interviews. But this interview to reveals that Bustamante is viewing his Disclosure of Truth as an INCOME and CAREER. Ooh. He has sold a Million Books. He is on TV. - Well, we are Fighting for the Very Future of Humanity Itself. Anyone who puts their Income or Career over that CAN KISS MY ASS. - This Israel - Palestine incident has been a Blessing in one respect. It has been Extremely Helpful in Exposing who are the SHILLS and the Fools. Bustamante has lost my respect with this interview. - See discussion of Israel - Palestine after the 1 hour mark: - Lol. Look at the sheepish expression on Bustamante's faces when he is being directed on the desired boundaries of the conversation. Sadly, Tom Bilyeu did not go anywhere near far enough on keeping Bustamante from flipping off into the Realm of Total BS..
In our country, we have failed miserably to truly educate our citizens. Whether it was by design or indifference it is the fatal flaw. No democracy can survive and flourish with an ill-informed/misinformed electorate. Low information results in poor decisions and chaos with the end result the loss of freedom.
The United States is NOT a democracy its a constitutional Republic. 1000% its intentional that they lie and create a false reality and want everyone dumbed down as much as possible and news flash our elections are almost if not entirely fake, and the candidates are Selected not elected
It does appear for the first 20 minutes, Bustamante is building rapport and reinforcing Tom's alliance as narrator, much like an infomercial. Bustamante knowing there is no way to stop this war, his job as CURRENT CIA, is to get people to not panic and instead, just watch it like an interesting movie. Classic prep, while sounding like you oppose it.
I find it amusing that he laid out exactly what he does (listen to the person to figure out their values and beliefs, then parrot it back to them). Then at 1:05:00 that's exactly what he does to Tom. He hears what Tom believes, then he parrots back a "shared perspective" that "money is just a count of how many lives we touch". And Tom believes it! After Andrew explained that's how he tricks people!! 😅😅😅
The way he is dressed, his shoes, his hair. Everything is for the viewer to relate to him. His way of speaking is carefully calculated to win the viewer's trust. As a CIA agent, he knows exactly what will happen after the election, regardless of the starting point. He noticeably lied when he said we don't want the US to become like China. If you listen to everything he says, you can understand what he wants you to know. The truth is in what he doesn't mention that paints a very different picture of what will happen and what you should prepare for, as well as what the real threat is. The easiest way is to take a look at the latest meetings of the World Economic Forum. Also check out how the WEF is currently practicing a simulation, similar to Event 201 which concerned a pandemic that then became a reality after the simulation. This time a global cyber attack is simulated in collaboration with Cyber Polygon. Check this out! There is also a new film coming out on April 26th. It's called Civil War. Coincidence? Check out the trailer.
@AngelicaHots he honestly offends me because he's gaslighting and supports the MIC! Supporting Haley is a bad idea because she's just gonna green light the war machine. That honest enough!?
The biggest problem for me when analyzing social problems is not being biased, but finding enough information. Especially information within government relations at any level, ( county/state/national/international ), there are too many people involved that have motives that are self serving and others that spend most of their time trying to herd us like a flock of sheep away from the truth.
@@friendlyone2706yeah, i can see google and apple censorship affecting what we see on the internet But back then, print was controlled by blackmailing and even taking out the staff members of the papers if they wrote something unfavorable If you find the editor you know whats coming out before it comes out And sometimes the boss doesn’t even have too know
Steph: True. And Mr CIA is deflecting at 2:49! It's frustrating to listen 3 hrs for new facts, just to hear same-Old on Israel, and claims that CIA & Hollywood are NOT attached at the hip delivering propaganda. His 'solve'-(vote) proved impotent again in 2022- the corruption is too deep! He has to know a proxy army's being trained right in our back yards, while all fingers point at rural Americans. An ex-CIA who admits plans to leave the states "if" the obvious follows a wanna-be (s)election, is a confirmation of clear and present danger.

@@knucklesandwich6117 not true, this was greatly exaggerated by the media. People really pulled together massively in New Orleans, saving each other with their own boats, bringing "strangers" into their homes, sharing massively. FEMA and media failed them tremendously - and likely, deliberately.

@@mikemerlin4020 the united states government did it. It's been released in declassified documents. They needed it to look like we were attacked to get support for the war.
You should be looking for ways to alleviate/prevent NEEDLESS, avoidable human suffering - but understand that you cannot eliminate all kinds of suffering, nor that you would want to.
Oh yeah . . . spit my coffee out on this one! Thanks for sharing. A "so-called" ex-CIA operative teaching us on how to be business SOCIOPATHS . . . way too funny.
Yes we actually were unified at first, also yes we believed we had been attacked. Yes the attack was based on a lie and yes the attitude on the war changed. Take a look at 9/11, same thing happened, we all unified under a lie, the lie was exposed our feelings on going to war with countries that had nothing to do with it changed. Exact same thing happened during the Korean war…
I think it's interesting that no one is discussing why the Obamas decided to create a film about a civil war in the US in the near future. I have my own ideas, and I can't be the only one thinking about it. A former US president and his wife putting something out like this is beyond bizarre.
This guys is so committed to DEI, the main thing he praises about Nikki and Vivek is their minority status. And as others have said in this comment section, there is no ex-CIA. Just tells you what the CIA is focusing on.
DEI...does not allow you to be hired without being qualified... 😢 NH doesn't stand on her principles which is why she is a terrible candidate... but to say she is a DEI is a stretch.. especially because of her rise under the rep party... the party thats supposed to be against DEI... Omarosa a DEI hire? Now that's debatable...
Just as he said to listen to opposing views for nuggets of truth, and considering the fact that we've learned that CIA too often manipulate us as well as others, the info about how to discern truth can be applied along with everything else we've learned to discern gaslight vs truth
I'm proud to pay taxes. Without the services we all rely on such as police, firefighters, roads, infrastructure, general assistance to citizens, foreign defense, MUCH MORE everything would be thrown into a state of martial law and vigilante-ism. I don't feel like having to protect my family with machine guns.
In my life, up to this point, I've realized that everyone, no matter their politics, religion, or income, are overusing and misusing the word 'literally.'
Honestly, I thought that at first, too, but it isn't. I've watched documentaries and clips from the 70s and 80s and they were overusing it back then, as well.@@rapierwhip

I admire the fact that when seeking the truth that both sides have to be willing to sit down and listen to the other side and that you have to be willing to admit that you might be wrong on both sides!
I thank God for my Military time. I was a Medic in the Women’s Army Corps when we first put boots on the ground. My point is the disciplines I learned in the military followed me through my entire life. I didn’t re-up but married and had 2 boys. My marriage broke up and was a single mother. Long story short is, after my military training I had a career as a Law Enforcement Officer which is militarist as well. But I also was raising 2 boys alone. Not an easy job. God used all those disciplines to be able to raise boys to be able to raise them to have lives and families of their own. Was it easy? NO by any means. So, yes! This guy is still CIA! It never leaves you.
wow....your bio reads exactly like my own except I wasn't Women's Army Corp...I worked in Explosives for the US Navy, got divorced from my serviceman husband, raised 2 sons as a single mom, and after navy I went into law enforcement for 21 yrs...effectively retired....but absolutely.....you called that EXACTLY correct
From 1:23:35 - 1:34:50 Tom talks without stop, OMG, more than ten minutes LOL --- What an incredible, patient, and empathic listener Andrew shows here to be. This situation makes me remember Robert Kiyosaki telling the guy who was interviewing him: do you invite me to your podcast to show me how much you know, or to hear from me, your guest?
And he literally cut off his guest from THE BEST, most coherent, unbiased summarization of the Israel-Palestine conflict right after he established the background to build off of. And he contributed NOTHING to the discussion, he just recited what literally everyone who doesn’t know the conflict says.
And China is already working diligently to control the American food supply.They own 374 thousand (or more) acres of midwestern farmland and already control the pork processing industry here. Keep also in mind that thousands of Red Army soldiers are streaming across our completely open southern border every month. It's not rocket science to understand that the USA is about to be in a world of hurt.
If Trump wins the 2024 election, consider this your signal to diversify your investments and hedge against geopolitical risks, as escalating tensions in Ukraine and the Middle East may trigger market volatility.
Given the uncertainty, one could incorporate safe-haven assets. Going long on U.S. defense stocks could be a solid option, considering the geopolitical landscape.
I agree. Defense stocks do well in times of geopolitical instability, as long as there's no financial fraud. Defense ETFs help spread risk by investing in different companies in the sector.
While defense stocks and ETFs are smart choices, don’t forget about the historical role of gold during uncertain times. Its value tends to rise as a hedge against geopolitical risks. How about allocating a portion of the prtfolio to gold?
As I near retirement, I value gold for its consistent store of value. In addition to conventional assets, my fin advsr, Monica Mary Strigle, investigates alternative investments such as digital assets, as sh would say. Despite initial doubts, I entered the crypto mrket at the $30,000 support level before various developments, resulting in a 250% increase from my initial $100,000 invstment. It is worth considering altcoins for further diversification.
I think 💩 STARTS to hit the fan, when a few elites of one party decides for everyone else in that party who to vote for. When you tell the people they don’t have a choice, that’s an actual THREAT TO DEMOCRACY. Bring Trump back ASAP
dude, I know. I literally had to fast fwd the minute he starts bloviating or else skip the vid all together. He has a bad habit of corralling every contribution to the discussion into the framework of his one-trick pony message. It's a conceptual hamster wheel that absolutely does not require 3 hours to relay, much less any more than a single video. shut down the channel and shut the schmuck up. Sheesh!!
Asks questions, doesnt listen, then waits for the soapbox movement to slag trump. Then backs down when your guest doesnt agree. Your guest rocks, we put up with the dribble in between.
@@adamrickens3211can I ask u a question? (Just to say first cause it’s RUclips lol, I mean no disrespect or whatever or to offended anyone)… regarding the guest do u personally believe in such a thing as ex-cia agents? or even one step further what if without knowledge once they join they are forever under a possible say nnk ultr@ situation ( i don’t want to spell it) I mean for them it ensures if any former personnel tries to speak out they can handle it simply and quickly, then also, the person doesn’t even know they have it in em.. win win lol 🤷🏻♂️
Omg I was just going to comment on this! The 10 minute question.. on and on and on… never again! No guest needed. They just sit and wait… ugh! Ask a question and shut up! If you want it about YOU, don’t invite someone on.. such a frustrating “interview “
This is my first time watching and I don't know who goes on more, the host or the commercials. This guest is spectacular with so much knowledge, why would we not pick his brain more?
It’s easy to confuse people when people only listen to what they’re told and don’t take the time to contemplate and think critically about what actually makes sense and rings true.
That's the point. We've been so dumbed down that what "rings true", or critical thinking, or common sense, is being bred out of us. It's not the same world I grew up in, and unfortunately that may be literal
If it's really obvious, and as usual nobody left with a different opinion than what they came with, I'm not sure that is an accurate assessment. I find it interesting to see what he wants to convey in the same way id rather see what frame of mind any threat has, but that's not the same as agreeing.
If someone teaches you desires they can't fulfill, or create fears they can't quell, you are being manipulated. The only people who can't be manipulated are those who don't hold unmet desires, and they accept chaos. Everyone else is a slave.
WARNING: I will never ask for your contact info in the comments section, that is someone impersonating me!
It's happens to me all the time when I comment on your channel
Tom, I think you ought to run for president. It might not be the job you want but I think it’s the job you’re training for with impact theory. It’s literally the epitome of working hard to acquire a set of skills to help human flourishing. People that want power don’t deserve it. People that don’t want it should wield it. You understand how to run a billion dollar company, which helps run the government. You care about empowering people shown by this channel and your previous works. You’re articulate and can debate also proven by this channel. You realize you can be wrong, and want to do what works and helps humans through their biological experience. The only thing I’ve heard you ask for from listening to this channel is briefs. So just go get the best briefs there are, presidential ones.
Also I’m going to write you in as a candidate on my ballot so you at least already have 1 vote.
No such thing as an ex cia spy. When I hear any ex fbi or ex cia, I start laughing, you are going to get some truth mixed in with some lies. They all have to sign papers what they can disclose and what they can't, they know the consequences are very bad if they cross the line.
I haven't heard of your show before. It popped up next. Very good content and discussion. Thanks! Subscribed!
This is classic preprogramming - they are telling you what they plan to do and preparing you to accept it. There is no such thing as ex-CIA.
Right? Just like how Americans are unified. Lol
So true.. and if you look closely into this guy’s eyes, he’s soulless for some reason.. is it exactly this what happens when you join the cia does it come with the job description.. "we will suck your soul out of you"
Thank you. Anything the CIA allows to be said is what they WANT to be said.
He is trained to manipulate a narrative to plant ideas. In the end he creates an ongoing asset
@@HeavenlyMe11 yup! And look how - contrived his persona and appearance is, it's insulting if not a bit of cynicism from his handlers the message being sent as to the things they assume we identify with. Even the way he pronounces so many words as if READING them for the first time, and with cadence like he isn't thinking of these things on the fly adds to the almost conscious display of how these people see everyone else in society. And why do all the various personalities and eccentricities therein of people that are commonly interviewed on this type of podcast always have their own distinct persona until it comes to interviews with people from ABC agency's? Talk about a contrast to the totally bizarre extremes humanity can exhibit, these agency guys just always have - like an almost lab-grown, prepackaged and diluted affect, that is impossible not to see! I mean, does it work? One would think it does, or are they just doing a lot of "too much" because: infinite resources, just got 2 show that the money is being used somewhere on something? If some other intelligent civilization could look at us, and observe these things objectively, I could only imagine the eye rolls!
Whenever the CIA talks to us, I feel like I should look out for manipulation
Seems that Bustamante takes Bilyeu's questions as information he can hijack and redirect to his own purposes.
Exactly. I’ve seen him on other channels.
I have heard it said; once CIA, always CIA, so I take what he says with a grain of salt.
Once agency, always agency. I don't trust spooks. That's what they call each other BTW. Dated a guy in DIA. Later found out he was a pathogical liar. But, not about being a spook. His top secret security clearance was up for review and guess who they interviewed about him, his patriotism, and so forth. Not a fun interview to give the agency folks. Actually kind of disturbing. This guy is agency.
Clear. A CIA spy who thinks that Russians impacted 2016 election ia a very poor spy.
the way he talks makes my brain shutdown. he does things like "as we all know" or "we can see that....." leading your honor. sustained.
He lost me at "We are unified when we are attacked..." and then mentioned the Vietnam War. We weren't attacked, and we weren't unified.
What the USA did in Vietnam was beyond criminal. This guy is a baby brained brainwashed pos who has never left America.
Yeah that was a really stupid thing for him to say, and right at the beginning of the podcast too... makes you think a lot of what he says is non-credible from there onwards. That was some ultra-cringe patriotism and delusion, because he seemingly made no mistake in his mind about what he said.
@@wackojacko1938 August 1964 - USS Maddox is allegedly attacked by North Vietnamese patrol torpedo boats in the Gulf of Tonkin
It blows my mind how dumb people are when you have the internet….we where attacked…wether it was a false flag attack is up to you to decide…. But we where attacked and we where unified IN THE BEGINNING, but once media coverage started happening the population realized we shouldn’t be there and UNIFIED again for our troops to leave
@@q6906 "allegedly" being the keyword.
There's a very common pattern for the US to allegedly be a major provocateur of the hornets nest... USS Maddox was "attacked" while in Vietnamese waters, while there was obvious turmoil between the north and south. Why be there unless you want to be attacked and/or have a reason to start a war? It's very like the US to be the aggressor and then claim to be some sort of heroic victim for their own personal gains while stepping on others to get there.
There is no such thing as "former CIA".
When he said Haley for president I realized he was promoting propaganda from the military industrial complex. Considering her family owns a military consulting firm who directly benefits from war, and he obviously knows that since he's so informed and trained
Yes this is just a mindf....k
Listen to enough of his interviews, and it becomes quite clear that this guy is just a young, smooth hipster version of John Brennan. Doing the rounds as "former" employees of Clowns In America. Nice try, guys. 😁
@@chunkwobbler2544 🎯
Do you even know who her family is.. And where her family comes from.. Cause I've done her genealogy.. On her and both her parents.. Her parents came from hindoostan in 1969.. Her father taught biology at Voorhes University(an HBCU) and her mother was an elementary school teacher(predominantly black/American Indian school) .. Where did you see or hear about her family being apart of the military industrial complex
Yeah when he said Hailey for president and Trump's corruption I figured he was there to push his own(CIA), agenda.
The fact that he supports Nikki Haley showe he's for the military industrial complex. Let's not forget a CIA agent once said " we let the media do the lying for us"
NOT ..............TODAY !!!!!!!
Yea and the media supports liberals .

"When everything the American people believes is false, we will have accomplished our mission." ~ William Casey, CIA director, 1982
Wouldn't it be nice if people understood that?? Or maybe know that declassified documents have declared the Gulf on Tonkin incident a complete fabrication... A lie that got millions of people killed, on both sides, for nothing.
Casey underestimated the will of the American people. If all our sources of videos recording real events are taken away from us, the last apparent source being TicTok , then yes. We will no longer have access to gauge any truth on.
Agreed!
Considering corporations own the media, the lobbyists and most politicians it’s amazing we can still drive around freely. Well, until the next pandemic that is.
🎉
I don’t think he said this.
I completely disagree- when all the media sources agree with each other - that’s when you know for sure they’re lying!
The further I got into this video, the more propaganda I saw. I can't even say I feel like he was spewing propaganda. It was just that.
You didn't understand. He said: take all the facts and all the sources and choose the one you trust. Take the russian ones if trust them more.
@@Dr.Sortospinoyeh the you didn’t understand line 😂
I think he meant opposing medias. When people didnt get along found something to agree in a subject, because there is a small piece of fact that was both discovered. It the same with media. By taking multiple opposing sources and they all agree in something its because some part of it is true even if aint totaly.
Example: Israel-Palestine conflict is happening. This is a fact, the reason and other details can be distorted to make confusion, but the fact remained that the war is happening. All media sources agree with that, there is evidence, footage and so on and on. This is a example of finding facts among lies.

I guess those students shot on campus were well & truly unified 🤷♂
He was wrong about Vietnam without a doubt. But, does that automatically mean he was wrong about everything else he said? I don’t believe so.
Y'all need to go back and listen again, he obviously said not everyone but most people unified! Which is a fact.

It's also worth noting he was never a spy, check his wiki or just google it. He was an intelligence officer which isn't a spy. Obviously the title is just clickbait because intel agents simply sift through open media and diplomatic documents so to assume he knows all the inner workings or anything of the sort is a stretch. The fact he talks so freely should also be another tell that the spooks have little worry of the info he had acquired.
He sounds totally different than another interview i saw him in!

Whenever someone says that, or something substantially similar to me, i always reply, “so when your not saying (whatever their “honest”phrase is) to me, your
lying to me?
Or they want to be clear to you so there is no hidden agenda behind their response. It's a half full or half empty way of speaking depending on your perspective and personal bias.
I used to say "ok honestly... " or "I will be honest...." then I realised and now have changed it to "ok I will be blunt...." the reason is, I was always being honest except I was attempting to be tactful, polite, and when i used the "honestly" at that point i was saying it as a warning from that point on there will be no concern of the others feelings, I wont dance around the issue we just have to rip this band aid off.

He even said himself, once in CIA always in CIA.
I knew when he gave a shitty movie a great review. You can discuss the plot without having to push the film.🤦♂️
The dude actually said “belief systems don’t change as quickly as facts”. Ding ding ding we have a winner. If it changes, it’s not a fact. FACTS DO NOT CHANGE. It’s actually the only true thing about facts--they don’t change.
And that's a fact....
Hmmm...facts do change as more information is provided, ie, the health care/ sick care model!
@@margarethamner8011 nooooo, if it changes “as more information is provided” it was a theory or a belief, but it certainly wasn’t a fact.
How did this conversation devolve into a silly dogmatic desire to uphold the integrity of the term "fact"?
He's talking about fluid situations and responses in geopolitics . And yes, they do change all the time.
Ah yes! Classic spy! Going on youtube sharing everything. The best spy ever 😅
Exactly. It's a bullshit factory.
Former....Former, he is not CIA anymore.He doesnt get a paycheck from them anymore . They only tell him what he can and can't talk about
A spy? This is ain’t no fucking movie. It’s real life wake up.
That is exactly what I was thinking as well!!!
He's not saying anything not freely and available to the public. The rest could have been said by anyone relatively informed or educated.
"It is so easy to confuse people" as he talks to a CIA disinformation specialist who claims to be retired. The irony is so thick I can't breath.
Listen and file it in the back in case you need it in the future 😉
He even told us " as a CIA agent". He aint retired. There's no such thing as a retired CIA agent. Just operational, and non operational.
What was interesting is that Trump scares him enough to wear he is planning on leaving the country he probably is going to be arrested for his "work". @@th3azscorpio
Yeah, why would he retire? He looks like he’s in his prime.
@@MommaBirddGet your mind outta the gutter, MommaBirdd!!!😂
I knew this guy was a joke as soon as he mentioned Nickey Haley lmao. Once CIA, always CIA. The only way you can retire is with a heart attack.
Thank God a real person on here! I was feeling a little like Alice and the Rabbit Hole!
Dude is a clown and it really shows us that the Cia isn't getting the best.
EXACTLY!
Is that a reference to the CIA 'heart attack gun' lol
Exactly
From within is what we are facing.
Every time a hear about a former CIA spy, I'm like 🤔 There's no such thing as a "former" CIA spy! 😉
CIA Officer. He said
@@Awakened-Mikael That is what Bustamante said "CIA Officer." I am wondering what that means to you. To me an Officer is a lot like manager that articulates or sets the goals and oversees the achievement of the goals.
What about Edward Snowden the most famous whistle blower of all yime.
But fr you are right
Tell that to Yuri Besmenov. Intelligence officers don’t always remain married to their employers.
Tom needs to actually let this guy explain and answer the questions instead of constantly trying to give us his own opinion...
It's his show
Tom uses guests to make it look like an interview but then he talks over them the entire time. Constantly praising himself and his wealth. So self absorbed and self deprecating. 🤢🤮🤮
@@Adam-yv5pq He loves to humble brag
yes, but it's not an interview, it's a discussion
@@noodle123ify then why is Tom talking over him and at him the entire time? You missed the point completely noodle
The CIA man helpfully made it obvious that he was promoting establishment propoganda within the first 2 minutes & saved me wasting time watching a political broadcast.
It's astounding to me that people eat this up, but I suppose I probably would too if I hadn't been exposed to information and narratives that challenge the American Empire's propaganda machine.
He starts with an absurdity. "Look at Vietnam" as an example of an attack that unified Americans? WTF?! Is he trying to rewrite the history of the Vietnam War? We were the aggressors. Vietnam never attacked or invaded us, unless you count the Gulf of Tonkin incident, which is an example of the government blatantly lying to justify an unjust war: this isn't even controversial among historians. We killed hundreds of thousands so civilians and committed horrendous war crimes. On top of that, it motivated the biggest and most persistent antiwar movement in American history, so it definitely didn't unify the country.
Mic drop
You are right. He said Americans are sexually repressed and CIA agent will avoid having sex with foreign female agents. I believe he is doi6 propaganda 😂
LOL people like you who think YOU figured it all out and are smarter than everyone else.
@@zelda.1776 wow .. I think for the first time in your life, you are correct. Wow. All may be not lost. How long is the line for the booster these days??

I am 30 seconds into watching this video and I’ll make a wild speculation that at some point in the next 3 hours, there will be a discussion how invading our privacy is “the right thing to do”.
You were right! Lol
Me too and I feel like this is going to be 3 hours of propaganda lol. No thanks on this one haha. If he is a real C I A dude, I'm sure he'd tell us how things really are. lol. I was like, hell no, after he said a movie by the obamas was brilliant. Pass on that movie as well!
It's already done. For self-driving cars to work, that was part of the deal to be signed, that they can take control of the car if need be.
Be sure to still NOT vote for trump like the ad tells ya😄😄😄
This clown 🤡 straight up still working for the CIA 😂😂😂😂
You lost me at “Nikki Haley”, Bye Felecia!!!!!!!
Nikki Haley!!?? That is all I needed to hear. It’s not that I trusted him before. It’s just that now I know not to trust anything he says.
He comes off as a CIA plant trying to reinforce the status quo we lost before the times of turmoil (2016 and onwards). Nikki Haley would be a terrible leader lol.
He loves Eric Weinstein 😂
Right I agree with you guys 100 percent. Hillary is criminal who should put in jail. Nikki was one of the worst options up there.

Anyone going to talk about why all of a sudden this "ex" CIA spy is all of a sudden our friend spilling the beans?
My guess is because when his wife got pregnant that didn’t let him take the necessary leave l. They asked them to resign. His said this in one of many interviews about life in the cia.
Edit: However, there are still things he cannot say. He’s saying a lot but nothing at all. He and his wife were both in cia.

"if everything shut down,we would all unify" WOW we already started off incorrectly.the amount of people that would start looting!
Some looting, some shooting but for sure, total chaos.
Reverting back to the natural way.. "strong shall survive"
That's been their agenda for years. They're trying to deconstruct everything. Race, Sex, Gender, Family Unit, Society, etc. Their goal is to create so much strife, so much horror, that people will unify under one flag world wide.
Definitely started wrong looting, closed Supermarket and stores cell phones dont work electricity, sewage it would be total disaster..
Yeah these guys are off the mark was a nice chance at a different podcast type thing but not for me sadly
He talks about real americans. not import...
One of the most damaging forces against progress is the scores of people who position themselves as experts and spread misinformation - whether out of malice or ignorance. This interview is a great example. If you truly want to understand these topics, please be advised to be extremely cautious about any "facts" you come away with after watching this.
WELL SAID
I’m so sick of Andrew bustamante it’s not funny. I feel like it’s the same 20 people on every single fucking podcast on the Internet.
Ditto!@@chrissnatchko7795
You mean like us being attacked by Vietnam brought the country together? 😂😂😂
@@motorazr5012or 911 was intel failure
The real question is, what happens if the cackling word salad lady wins?
Well she started the war with Russia and Ukraine by getting Ukraine to join nato when they had contracts with Russia that nato wouldn’t join any of them on the border. So ww3 would be inevitable if she wins. The only way to avoid nuclear warfare is to get trump in office and he can end the war. This guys is very deceptive.
Andrew is recruiting for the CIA lol, Whenever something seems Too Cool or Too Awesome my spider sense start tingling and how he describes working for the CIA is just that. There is no way on earth it's that Rosy.
It's definitely not. Never ignore your intuition. This dude is a typical CIA stooge.
What he's saying though is really insightful information. About mindset and how to intake news in a way that promotes the pursuit of the most true information. I just feel like when it comes to talking about the CIA, it's a one sided story, which I guess is understandable. Don't bite that hadn't that fed you.
Same guy now on TV shows "investigating UFOs and bigfoot".....
It can pay well and there are some great perks that come with it because it is a gov't job after all but from personal stories I've heard its typically a boring desk job like any other and if you don't like that it can slowly grind away at your soul. Also because you'll experience a ton of waste and mismanagement that will make you upset and question how can it be so bad. Now granted there are many jobs at the CIA and not all of them necessarily involve riding a desk. There are jobs where you could be stationed overseas or if you are military you could be hired on as a contractor or vice versa. But most of the people doing the "espionage" kind of work are analysts and intel officers that gather and push data around to higher ups or other departments. It is cool in the sense you get to read and handle secret or top secret information based on your clearance level and your contribution can help the overall effort but its not at all like the movies. Your are not going to be special agent Jack Ryan travelling around the globe, interrogating assets, sneaking around killing bad guys and preventing a plot to kill the president.
This guy - the guest is an "operative" given the assignment "USA- freedom takedown"- the promise..." You and your family and following generations will be safe and taken care of for life..... you would be the only one that needs to SWAY the narrative - wouldn't that be worth doing what we ask you to do?"
Whenever the CIA says they are protecting the U.S., I immediately start watching MY back!!!
Yes I had a friend on the Scorpion Squad in Benghazi and he died
Please Note: From what I have seen of Andrew Bustamante, though he is Ex-CIA he appears to actually be a Good Guy and speaks a lot of Truth.
-
HOWEVER. When you are dealing with someone who comes from within the Intelligence Agencies there is a reasonable level of Expectations Held that they should have a fair level of UNDERSTANDING of International Geo-Politics. And Bustamante's take on what is Driving the situation in Israel and Palestine, his analysis and summary falls completely short of an adequate response. Anyone who knows anything about what is really happening in our world today understands that the Rothschild's and the British Led Globalist Cabal not only Completely Control Israel, but the Entire Global Geo-Political Landscape. Not even bringing the New World Order into the conversation about Israel and Palestine is an INSULT to our Intelligence. I have been impressed by his previous interviews. But this interview to reveals that Bustamante is viewing his Disclosure of Truth as an INCOME and CAREER. Ooh. He has sold a Million Books. He is on TV.
-
Well, we are Fighting for the Very Future of Humanity Itself. Anyone who puts their Income or Career over that CAN KISS MY ASS.
-
This Israel - Palestine incident has been a Blessing in one respect. It has been Extremely Helpful in Exposing who are the SHILLS and the Fools. Bustamante has lost my respect with this interview.
-
See discussion of Israel - Palestine after the 1 hour mark:
-
Lol. Look at the sheepish expression on Bustamante's faces when he is being directed on the desired boundaries of the conversation. Sadly, Tom Bilyeu did not go anywhere near far enough on keeping Bustamante from flipping off into the Realm of Total BS..
Yep! I haven't trusted the CIA in over 50 years and I'm not starting now!
Keyword here is former. Whistles are blown, and then you can connect dots
He is FORMER
Nikki Haley? She flip flops more than a fish out of water...
She will still support the MAGA regime.
His take on HRC was shocking to me .
Not the right time???
The woman is a criminal !
In our country, we have failed miserably to truly educate our citizens. Whether it was by design or indifference it is the fatal flaw. No democracy can survive and flourish with an ill-informed/misinformed electorate. Low information results in poor decisions and chaos with the end result the loss of freedom.
The United States is NOT a democracy its a constitutional Republic. 1000% its intentional that they lie and create a false reality and want everyone dumbed down as much as possible and news flash our elections are almost if not entirely fake, and the candidates are Selected not elected
It does appear for the first 20 minutes, Bustamante is building rapport and reinforcing Tom's alliance as narrator, much like an infomercial. Bustamante knowing there is no way to stop this war, his job as CURRENT CIA, is to get people to not panic and instead, just watch it like an interesting movie. Classic prep, while sounding like you oppose it.
Definitely agree. Especially the build up to Nikki Haley as our great hope for 2025.
I find it amusing that he laid out exactly what he does (listen to the person to figure out their values and beliefs, then parrot it back to them). Then at 1:05:00 that's exactly what he does to Tom. He hears what Tom believes, then he parrots back a "shared perspective" that "money is just a count of how many lives we touch".
And Tom believes it! After Andrew explained that's how he tricks people!! 😅😅😅
Why would anyone with a brain take for true what an active CIA asset says? Really. This is clown world in a talk-show format.
Jeffrey Epstein was Mossad / CIA so... makes sense to me
The way he is dressed, his shoes, his hair. Everything is for the viewer to relate to him. His way of speaking is carefully calculated to win the viewer's trust. As a CIA agent, he knows exactly what will happen after the election, regardless of the starting point. He noticeably lied when he said we don't want the US to become like China. If you listen to everything he says, you can understand what he wants you to know. The truth is in what he doesn't mention that paints a very different picture of what will happen and what you should prepare for, as well as what the real threat is. The easiest way is to take a look at the latest meetings of the World Economic Forum. Also check out how the WEF is currently practicing a simulation, similar to Event 201 which concerned a pandemic that then became a reality after the simulation. This time a global cyber attack is simulated in collaboration with Cyber Polygon. Check this out! There is also a new film coming out on April 26th. It's called Civil War. Coincidence? Check out the trailer.
Bustamante is the guy you need when you have a 6 pg paper due in three hours and haven’t started yet. He says a lot and nothing at the same time.
bingo
He seems dumb.
He also snitches on you to get you kicked out of school
Or... you could just be honest and admit that Bustamante says things that don't affirm your bias and offend you.
@AngelicaHots he honestly offends me because he's gaslighting and supports the MIC!
Supporting Haley is a bad idea because she's just gonna green light the war machine.
That honest enough!?
The biggest problem for me when analyzing social problems is not being biased, but finding enough information. Especially information within government relations at any level, ( county/state/national/international ), there are too many people involved that have motives that are self serving and others that spend most of their time trying to herd us like a flock of sheep away from the truth.
We also in an information-controlled environment. It was harder to control print.
@@friendlyone2706yeah, i can see google and apple censorship affecting what we see on the internet
But back then, print was controlled by blackmailing and even taking out the staff members of the papers if they wrote something unfavorable
If you find the editor you know whats coming out before it comes out
And sometimes the boss doesn’t even have too know
Steph: True. And Mr CIA is deflecting at 2:49! It's frustrating to listen 3 hrs for new facts, just to hear same-Old on Israel, and claims that CIA & Hollywood are NOT attached at the hip delivering propaganda. His 'solve'-(vote) proved impotent again in 2022- the corruption is too deep! He has to know a proxy army's being trained right in our back yards, while all fingers point at rural Americans. An ex-CIA who admits plans to leave the states "if" the obvious follows a wanna-be (s)election, is a confirmation of clear and present danger. Self-declared enemies of freedom and the Constitution fill the seats of our institutions, so refusing the bait is prudent and crucial.
@@friendlyone2706YES, WE MUST GET BACK TO NOT HAVING ONE GROUP CONTROL AND CENSURE OUR MEDIA/NEWS ETC..THO ITS ALWAYS BEEN CONTROLLED TO SOME EXTENT EVEN YRS AGO. WE NEED UNBIASED REPORTING!! NOT SURE HOW WE WILL GET THERE UNLESS ELON BUYS OUT ALL MEDIA COs AND HIRES LIKEMINDEDS
well, i just stepped into this channel, video, and it start mentioning a movie
good luck with the truth
There's nothing more important than having a clean conscious and not to be a slave to the material things that can't be taken with us to grave. The truth is the most important thing.
I am so impressed with you and have a lot of respect for you. God bless you.

I enjoyed watching Tom get manipulated by the very techniques they are discussing - in real time !!
Tom is an egomaniac and a fool - talks waaaay too much and draws too much attention to himself in all his interviews, i really can't stand listening to that guy, but he does have great guest - when they are allowed to talk.
Man you are delusional if you don't see Biden as an Existentual threat! What about the border? And on an on!
ahahahahah👍
My thoughts exactly
Evident. Takes much discernment.
Did bro just give the Vietnam war as an example of unification???
Yep he's to young to have been at Woodstock 😅
Imagine you bullied other countries for decades and when all get together to fight you back , you call them bullies 😂
Americans always think it’s only America doing all the bullying, espionage, and resource stealing, it’s China, Russia, France, Japan..etc
So true
Imagine complimenting the Obamas when that president is literally the major administrative cause to our civil divorce. Obama literally weaponized the IRS & DOJ against his opponents
Not true. You're thinking exactly the way they tell you NOT to in these 3 hours.
America is the ONLY reason we have any of this.
The leader of the free world, a beacon of hope against oppression for ALL people, now corrupted by traitors and incompetents, who are trying to commit a coup against the people and laws of the land of the free!
We weren't attacked in Vietnam. Either he lied right out of the gate or uninformed
My guess is, he meant, we united together in being against the Vietnam war; with all the many and very huge demonstrations at that time...
Gulf of Tonkin
@@mikemerlin4020 the united states government did it. It's been released in declassified documents. They needed it to look like we were attacked to get support for the war.
@@mikemerlin4020LOL, read it up

The first minute or 2 are completely laughable, feels like a propaganda piece
My two professors circa 1971 at a Canadian university were American draft dodgers.

I've seen his course....its like training people to be a Sociopaths narcissist and teaching you how to manipulate and tell lies
😂😂😂😂
Not only does social media confuse people but it is a major distraction in our lives. Depending on what content you choose to consume.
Agree-His history is incomplete
Vietnam war unifying? You wouldn't see it that way if you were in your 70's.
He also said we were attacked during Vietnam haha. This guy is a clown
Yes we actually were unified at first, also yes we believed we had been attacked. Yes the attack was based on a lie and yes the attitude on the war changed.
Take a look at 9/11, same thing happened, we all unified under a lie, the lie was exposed our feelings on going to war with countries that had nothing to do with it changed.
Exact same thing happened during the Korean war…
He wasn’t even alive then
💯✌️😎
He's lying on purpose.
This is the same guy who said Ryan Routh is too unstable to be an operative.
Great point. I haven’t go to that part of the video.
I think it's interesting that no one is discussing why the Obamas decided to create a film about a civil war in the US in the near future. I have my own ideas, and I can't be the only one thinking about it. A former US president and his wife putting something out like this is beyond bizarre.
are you talking about the cyber attack one? or the new civil war one? is that one Obamas as WELL?
@@mattmitchell1646if there is a cyber attack it will turn INTO a civil war.

Nikki Haley? Is he out of his mind? Now, I know he is full of poopoo!!! LOL
Nikki haley its like another Hillary Clinton the only different she it's republican. Thats all.
I have never been confused about the truth. People who become confused by information either don't have core beliefs or common sense.
Or God-fearing
well put!! fear causes confusion, intution = clarity
"Even the Elite will be deceived" ...
I quit at one minute when he said the Vietnam War unified us.
WW2 maybe
This guys is so committed to DEI, the main thing he praises about Nikki and Vivek is their minority status. And as others have said in this comment section, there is no ex-CIA. Just tells you what the CIA is focusing on.
You have no clue what DEI means. You're parroting Fox news nonsense.
DEI...does not allow you to be hired without being qualified... 😢 NH doesn't stand on her principles which is why she is a terrible candidate... but to say she is a DEI is a stretch.. especially because of her rise under the rep party... the party thats supposed to be against DEI... Omarosa a DEI hire? Now that's debatable...
I imagine that when he’s done with the interview, he releases his hair scarf and disappears into the fog of the night.
He lost me when he said he was proud to pay taxes. He of all people should know how deep that scam goes.
Just as he said to listen to opposing views for nuggets of truth, and considering the fact that we've learned that CIA too often manipulate us as well as others, the info about how to discern truth can be applied along with everything else we've learned to discern gaslight vs truth
I would be proud to pay taxes if I knew what it was for like roads bridges fire police and not to make some asshat richer
I'm proud to pay taxes. Without the services we all rely on such as police, firefighters, roads, infrastructure, general assistance to citizens, foreign defense, MUCH MORE everything would be thrown into a state of martial law and vigilante-ism. I don't feel like having to protect my family with machine guns.
Arlene taxes are lame no doubt about it but the necessary for our economy
Everyone saw how they just literally printed money.
I glad for people like you Andrew Bustemante.
We need an informed population that works together for Good.

In my life, up to this point, I've realized that everyone, no matter their politics, religion, or income, are overusing and misusing the word 'literally.'
They should be using ‘undoubtedly’ but apparently that’s too hard to say

Honestly, I thought that at first, too, but it isn't. I've watched documentaries and clips from the 70s and 80s and they were overusing it back then, as well.@@rapierwhip
Here are bullet point summaries with timestamps for the key topics covered in the conversation between Tom Bilyeu and Andrew Bustamante:
- The conflict between Israel and Palestine (9:24) - Traces the roots of the conflict back to biblical times with Ishmael and Isaac, the establishment of Israel after WWII, and the resulting tensions with Palestinians who were already living there.
- Thinking through difficult global problems (14:34) - Laying out a framework for analyzing complex issues: map the terrain, take in different perspectives, analyze and synthesize information to identify gaps, define goals, understand different frames of reference.
- Civilization pyramid model (20:12) - Explains a model of the tradeoffs between individual freedoms and societal order/efficiency as you go from individualism to tribalism to an organized state. Discusses how the US allows movement between levels.

Yet the possibility of WW3 has started with the Biden administration.
You are not kidding.
Totally . You are so right.
"most people don't even realize they have a frame of reference" = brilliant.
It would be interesting to know how many minutes Tom talked vs his guest.
Too many!
I admire the fact that when seeking the truth that both sides have to be willing to sit down and listen to the other side and that you have to be willing to admit that you might be wrong on both sides!
Cool, but Fox News is not a side. It is not the other side. Conservatism was the other side. There is no conservative voice left.
I thank God for my Military time. I was a Medic in the Women’s Army Corps when we first put boots on the ground. My point is the disciplines I learned in the military followed me through my entire life. I didn’t re-up but married and had 2 boys. My marriage broke up and was a single mother. Long story short is, after my military training I had a career as a Law Enforcement Officer which is militarist as well. But I also was raising 2 boys alone. Not an easy job. God used all those disciplines to be able to raise boys to be able to raise them to have lives and families of their own. Was it easy? NO by any means. So, yes! This guy is still CIA! It never leaves you.
wow....your bio reads exactly like my own except I wasn't Women's Army Corp...I worked in Explosives for the US Navy, got divorced from my serviceman husband, raised 2 sons as a single mom, and after navy I went into law enforcement for 21 yrs...effectively retired....but absolutely.....you called that EXACTLY correct
Cute story.

From 1:23:35 - 1:34:50 Tom talks without stop, OMG, more than ten minutes LOL --- What an incredible, patient, and empathic listener Andrew shows here to be. This situation makes me remember Robert Kiyosaki telling the guy who was interviewing him: do you invite me to your podcast to show me how much you know, or to hear from me, your guest?
man bro was yaaaaping for daaays.... i got so bored like wth let the dude you invited speak
yeah it was a good 10 mins, he really clarified with non biased view as opposed to the CIA guy who is obviously biased to one side
is it an interview or a dialogue ?
There are moments when Tom talks about Truth which is just rubbish. Truth is did you or didn’t you something. Done.
And he literally cut off his guest from THE BEST, most coherent, unbiased summarization of the Israel-Palestine conflict right after he established the background to build off of. And he contributed NOTHING to the discussion, he just recited what literally everyone who doesn’t know the conflict says.
I fell like Bustamante will talk to literally anyone. I could start a podcast tomorrow and get him as my first guest.
Sounds like you should start a podcast and get Mr. Bustamente on your show. A good opportunity if you ask me.

Keep also in mind that thousands of Red Army soldiers are streaming across our completely open southern border every month. It's not rocket science to understand that the USA is about to be in a world of hurt.
I am literally exhausted and only halfway through. Feel like I just ran an obstacle course and have no idea why.
"Why do liars lie? Nobody knows" - Katt Williams
"2024 is the year of truth!" Katt Williams Since we are at it Jeffrey Epstein was Mossad! Period
👀
Katt Williams is a no philosopher. We all know why liars lie. To manipulate you or to withhold information. Simple
Well in the case of this 3-letter organization, they are paid to lie.
bible quote time. satan is the first liar and the father of them
If Trump wins the 2024 election, consider this your signal to diversify your investments and hedge against geopolitical risks, as escalating tensions in Ukraine and the Middle East may trigger market volatility.
Given the uncertainty, one could incorporate safe-haven assets. Going long on U.S. defense stocks could be a solid option, considering the geopolitical landscape.
I agree. Defense stocks do well in times of geopolitical instability, as long as there's no financial fraud. Defense ETFs help spread risk by investing in different companies in the sector.
While defense stocks and ETFs are smart choices, don’t forget about the historical role of gold during uncertain times. Its value tends to rise as a hedge against geopolitical risks. How about allocating a portion of the prtfolio to gold?
As I near retirement, I value gold for its consistent store of value. In addition to conventional assets, my fin advsr, Monica Mary Strigle, investigates alternative investments such as digital assets, as sh would say. Despite initial doubts, I entered the crypto mrket at the $30,000 support level before various developments, resulting in a 250% increase from my initial $100,000 invstment. It is worth considering altcoins for further diversification.
Interesting suggestion, what are the risks involved in incorporating crypto into ones prtfolio?
These guys are what’s wrong with the Democratic party.
They sound more center right.
@@kriswoods7051 Center Right 😂🤣😂 Total Democrat!
There is no left in the US now. That's what we need. Both right wing parties are too far right to meet the needs of the people
Communism is the good stuff. We were lied to
What this dude Andrew the ex CIA spy supports Trump how is he a democrat lol...
I think 💩 STARTS to hit the fan, when a few elites of one party decides for everyone else in that party who to vote for. When you tell the people they don’t have a choice, that’s an actual THREAT TO DEMOCRACY. Bring Trump back ASAP
Tom asks the longest questions in the history of podcasts. 1,379 words later "is that your frame of reference?"
dude, I know. I literally had to fast fwd the minute he starts bloviating or else skip the vid all together. He has a bad habit of corralling every contribution to the discussion into the framework of his one-trick pony message. It's a conceptual hamster wheel that absolutely does not require 3 hours to relay, much less any more than a single video. shut down the channel and shut the schmuck up. Sheesh!!
Asks questions, doesnt listen, then waits for the soapbox movement to slag trump. Then backs down when your guest doesnt agree. Your guest rocks, we put up with the dribble in between.
@@adamrickens3211can I ask u a question? (Just to say first cause it’s RUclips lol, I mean no disrespect or whatever or to offended anyone)… regarding the guest do u personally believe in such a thing as ex-cia agents? or even one step further what if without knowledge once they join they are forever under a possible say nnk ultr@ situation ( i don’t want to spell it) I mean for them it ensures if any former personnel tries to speak out they can handle it simply and quickly, then also, the person doesn’t even know they have it in em.. win win lol 🤷🏻♂️
My son said, " Vote for Nickey Haley"... Only a professional OP Would utter such stupidity 😂😂😂
Wouldn't that be a wasted vote?
@@anitabrown3286 absolutely
@@anitabrown3286It’s something someone says when they are wasted.
You probably send money to the RNC. Where do you wear those ugly yellow sneakers ??
@@kimdagnillo8246 I'm not a brainwashed idiot that cares about political parties .
My first and last time watching Tom. He loves his own voice and believes he’s smarter than his guest.
Yeah, he NEVER STFU!!! Why even have a guest???
Omg I was just going to comment on this! The 10 minute question.. on and on and on… never again! No guest needed. They just sit and wait… ugh! Ask a question and shut up! If you want it about YOU, don’t invite someone on.. such a frustrating “interview “
Ugh. I was getting so annoyed by this as well.
Well said...i decided the same and then saw ypur comment...
his lack of knowledge yet big mouth non stop talker makes him a very annoying interviewer
This is my first time watching and I don't know who goes on more, the host or the commercials. This guest is spectacular with so much knowledge, why would we not pick his brain more?
BEWARE of WOLVES in SHEEP outifts.
Trust the CIA… nope 😂
"Trust No One" Benjamin Franklin, Versailles France 1783.
Exactly
It’s easy to confuse people when people only listen to what they’re told and don’t take the time to contemplate and think critically about what actually makes sense and rings true.
U tell him girl!!
Ground news
Yes and he is part of the people confusing the public
That’s his job
Everyone should pick up a copy of “The Art of War”
That's the point. We've been so dumbed down that what "rings true", or critical thinking, or common sense, is being bred out of us. It's not the same world I grew up in, and unfortunately that may be literal
This guy is a master at manipulation.
"Vote harder", "Trust the bureaucrats"
If it's really obvious, and as usual nobody left with a different opinion than what they came with, I'm not sure that is an accurate assessment. I find it interesting to see what he wants to convey in the same way id rather see what frame of mind any threat has, but that's not the same as agreeing.
If someone teaches you desires they can't fulfill, or create fears they can't quell, you are being manipulated. The only people who can't be manipulated are those who don't hold unmet desires, and they accept chaos. Everyone else is a slave.
Not really because if you are a maste you do not notice it. But for sure he is trying to manipulate the 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐏🐏
...and he wears the "bee hive"
