Coverup, political espionage conducted against Hillary Clinton, marco rubio, ted cruz, and donald trump. I was part of it, i thought i was doing Law Enforcement, sorr sorry. Patrick burns adjoins me life but first breaking news correspondent Trace Gallagher get this back story and then we will talk to patrick himself. When he went public in ten days ago with claims he was involved with the fbi and with the trumprussia investigation, overstock. Com lost 36 of its stock value in two days. Today after resigning he released a statement saying in part while i believe i did what was necessary for the good of the country for the good of the firm, i am in a sad position of having to sever ties with overstock. When he says for the good of the country, he is referring to his claim that he provided documents to john durham the u. S. Attorney for the district of columbia and is now looking into the origins of the mueller report. He later told fox business i have all the answers going on to say attorney general william barr is about to sneak up and rammed the deep state submarine. He claims he had a relationship with maria butina, the woman who pleaded guilty to being unregistered russian agent. If she is currently serving 18 months in jail but her lawyer accuses him of starting a manipulative romantic relationship with her at the direction of the u. S. Governmen government. Meanwhile, he says it was upon the advice of Warren Buffett who he calls his omaha a rabbi that he decided to go public, after he resigned, shares of overstock. Com went up more than 10 . Martha here now as we said in an exclusive tonight is patrick burton, the now former ceo of overstock. Com, thank you very much. Its an honor to be on, there is some confusion wrapped up. Martha we will unscramble it to be sure. You left your company today, you built through your own sweat and grit over all of those years, a successful business. Your thoughts about the company. The company is in a great position. We have the Retail Business, we also have a network of Blockchain Companies that i think can change the world. If you are into blockchain, there is a killer app called security tokens. We have all these great Blockchain Companies and our Retail Business is in the black in the second quarter. I have to get away for the Retail Company based on what i think is going on. Martha you stepped away from your company for the good of the company and the good of the country, you say you got tangled up in the deep state investigation into President Trump. How did all of this start . Let me give you the bottom line up front. If im a hippie, i have nothing to do with the feds. Twice in my life i had the honor of helping them, a friend of mine named Brian Williams was murdered seven years ago, i help them bring the murderer to justice, i help them fight wall street about 12 years ago, i was a one man occupy wall street. The feds showed up and it was my honor to help them take down a couple hundred people on wall street. Let me jump to the bottom line and this is the quickest way to explain it. They got back in touch with me a third time and i was given some fishy orders. I carried them out in 20152016 thinking i was conducting Law Enforcement. Dont say the fbi, the fbi is barely involved in this. The men in black as i called them showed up and asked for this third favor. Im not going to go into the details right now but i didnt know who sent the orders, they seemed fishy, last summer watching television and heres the punch line, some congressional hearings, i figured out where those orders came from. A guy named peter strzok. That was who sent the orders. Martha youre naming a bunch of fbi people there. Peter strzok it has been confirmed to me that my instructions came from peter strzok, the people who carry the orders or on behalf. Martha what did they ask you to do . I dont want to go into the nittygritty right now, i can tell you the main event. I feel terrible, i have been watching for three years, i finally went to see buffett. Hes my rabbi, i call him. He said you have to come forward and i said its going to make some feds furious at me, their heads are going to explode. And he said you let the feds do you their job, youre a citizen, go to the public. This was all political espionage conducted against Hillary Clinton, rubio, ted cruz, and trump. I was in the room when it happened in the way, i was part of it. I knew i had some of the pieces, i had the pieces of something much bigger. As stuff bubbled into the news, i started realizing i had these very important missing pieces. I actually started trying to help them but i had to wait until there was a return to the rule of law. That took waiting until bill barr got installed, i dont know the guy, but only then did i trust things enough. Martha its my understanding that i should just point this out because some people might be listening and saying how credible is this . We did some asking around and we have basically had the indication that there is every reason to believe that your story is indeed credible. Im not in the convincing business. Martha let me go back to what everyone is saying at home, what did they tell you to do, what did they ask you to do . Some of it involved this young lady maria butina who came here so some of it involved her, some of it involved setting up Hillary Clinton for what looked like Law Enforcement, it looked like Law Enforcement was setting her up to be blackmaile blackmailed. I had help them set up Hillary Clinton to be blackmailed. Im sure there are a bunch of people in washington who are going to rip me apart and i have been warned, i was warned last october from a friendly person, if you come forward, this entire town is going to destroy you and turn you into dust. Martha i give you a lot of credit because i know you said you did some soulsearching over the summer and you talked to good friends i do mention one of them a moment ago. What was the nature of your relationship with maria butina . Did you reach out to you, did you reach out to her . What was the nature of your relationship . Youve seen the video were candidates trump is at a conference and theres a young lady who stands up and asks a question if you go and look up that conference which was a 2015 conference, im a small l libertarian, a small r republican. I dont identify as a republican but i get asked to speak at conferences like that and i was at that conference. After i spoke, she came up to me and we talked about guns. The first time, i brushed her off, im not into guns. Everyone should have one but im not into them. She came up the next day and said im really here to make contact with you, theres some people who want to talk to you, they know about your relationship with Milton Friedman. Believe it or not there are people like this in russia, ill put it up on a website called deep capture. We had an intellectual relationship, i was given a green light to meet her again, she turned that into a physical relationship, not the time unwilling we dated for about six months i was trying to get her into some senior Foreign Policy, because of things i used to do taking down wall street i used to have very low low level security clearance. When you get that, when you signed a piece of paper that says a guy comes up with russia, we want to take you to moscow and we want you to speak on bitcoin and liberalism at the central bank, you have to report that. I reported that. To my clearance authority. Before i know it, the men in black or back of my life and i was trying to encourage her to have a relationship she wanted to be a back channel for peace. I could have open some doors but i didnt want to do that until i have the green light. After a couple months, i was given the green light, that turn romantic. Ill tell you some really deep stuff. I was judging it as an opportunity for something good, something to move the ball of peace down the field a little bit. Onethird of it was a risk. Im a 56yearold bachelor, i was trying to get her in and maybe something peaceful would happen. Twothirds i was positive, onethird this is quite a risk and especially from july of 2016, she clearly was swinging around more and more in big shot republican circles including people like don jr. I was telling her that the men in black had all of those meetings before she had, they do about her the day she landed, they do about every one of these meetings. At one point she was going off to have a meeting with don jr. I didnt vote for trump, im not a never trump, he won fair and square martha do you think she was set up by the men in black to approach people in the Trump Administration . 100 . They knew she was trying to approach, we knew that because she told me and i let them know. I could have told you in december of 2015, i had a suspicion forming in my mind she doesnt like democrats, she is much of republican, shes a Milton Friedman fan, im a Milton Friedman guy. Once she checked off having met someone in clinton i dont know who she told me she was going to focus on ted cruz, rubio, and trump. At that point the interest in the United States government doing anything about this went to zero. Even to the point i was telling them things like shes telling me in a manner of weeks she could be at some conference of conservatives and donald trump is going to be taken down and out the back door, what do you want me to do . She said were going to let it all happen, 100 . Martha do you believe she was working for them, the men in suits in the United States or working for the russian government or some combination . Im not going into that, she wasnt working for the men in suits. Heres the other main event, its horrible to even say the initials fbi involved in this, it wasnt the fbi. The fbi got hijacked from the top. Martha you talked about comey, you talked about brennan, clapper, youre talking about the cia . The feds all have this, legitimate feds. The fbi was out of that, they delivered the message. Then they told me to break up with her, they came back and this time they specifically said we need you to conduct, rekindle a romantic relationship and the orders are coming from x, y, z. These are men and women of honor and they felt horrible, i think those are illegal orders. They made very clear to me you dont have to take these, you dont have to help, i think they didnt want me to, they felt terrible. Martha youre talking about entities that are separate from these, are you carving him out as being part of a separate operation. Forget strzok for a moment. The x, y, z are actual human beings whose names you know in the obama administratio administration. Guys like strzok are the errand boys, they are the clerks who sent the messages. Martha is at john brennan, is it James Clapper . Attorney general barr has that information, they are serious i overstepped lines. Martha im asking questions because thats my job, and you can answer them do whatever you feel is comfortable. When you said you realized last summer that it was peter strzok who had contacted you, contacted about having discussions about maria butina, do something make you uncomfortable that they ask you to do . It didnt work that way. I will write up an explanation and people can read it so its clear. What was making me uncomfortable is two things. I originally said misses twothirds an opportunity and she is very well connected in russia, let me introduce her to some people in our Foreign Policy think tank establishment and with that be okay . Onethird she wanted to talk about erasmus and the greeks, shes a real intellectual. But i had this concern about the risk there was some mischief afoot. As those First Six Months wore on, that a risk profile shifted and she stopped talking so much about john rawls and Milton Friedman, she started talking about all these republican bigwigs. I could have told you in december of 2015, i was forming this thought. Its starting to seem like now that she is here, just swimming around with republicans, it started to seem like what they are doing is letting this scandal develop on the republicans and some day they were going to pick it up and shake it, crack it and the spread on republicans. No way with james comey, no way would president obama do Something Like that. Im not saying president obama was involved, dont make any assumptions about who x, y, and z are. I couldve told you in december 2015 which i should note is seven months before the official start of the investigation, i was already hypothesizing this is starting to seem like they are deliberately letting this grenade develop on republicans. Martha is there anything you witnessed, were you ever told to stand down, to back off . s at what you were referring to or is that Something Different . In march 2016, she asked me over to russia to give a speech. Her goal was to get me to moscow to give a talk at the central bank on bitcoin and liberalism. Then to take me to a resort in the mountains that was going to be shut down for three days so that 4045 people would get together, the oligarchs and governments and we would spend three days talking about liberalism anyway, this was the author and she had been sent by them to come to get me to do this. When she asked me in march, she was saying speak in st. Petersburg on blockchain, i think we can change the world, eliminate poverty and stuff. Vladimir putin is going to be there, you are going to have 60 minutes alone with putin and at that point i was told to break up with her and get her out of your life. I worked on Something Else involving corruption of the federal official. When that matter involving the corruption of the federal official was complete, it ended in an odd way that sounded fishy, it ended in an odd way that was very fishy, the details are all in the department of justice. It was corruption of a federal official and it ended in a way that smelled like a skunk at which point when they came back around july 1st of 2016 which is to say a few weeks before the republican convention, about the time that trump became the presumptive nominee, they said we made a mistake. Russia, russia, i want to be clear they said this. They said the United States never, never asked this of somebody, never asked for citizen to conduct a romantic relationship or to get information but this is such a National Security emergency we need to ask you to do this if you are willing and the orders come from x, y, z. We want to be clear, patrick, you are absolutely in your rights to refuse us, you have no obligation to in all our careers we never heard of an american citizen being asked to sleep with someone in order to get information. I want to be clear about something. Then i conducted for the following seven months, all intents and purposes i conducted another romance. I put on a show, i was wining and dining her, that second time i was with her eye created that impression to liberally i was complying with the requested being being romantic and she has confirmed in a prison cell she could have every right to hate me and i understand she has confirmed to journalists i was a total gentleman. Anyone observing and surveilling would have thought that we were deeply in love. I never laid a finger on her because i knew it would disgrace our country and it would disgrace maria, that entire period i was being instructed to romance her, i created the impression and i did that at the same time i set up x, y, z for some felony charges. Martha i have two quick questions for you. What made you realize last summer the person you were contacting was peter strzok . He wasnt contacting me, some people showed up and this request comes because i had been involved, i deliberately kept once this russia scandal started, i tried as much as i could i wanted to keep my mind clear for when investigators show up. I really tried not to follow it as hard as i could. By last may or june, it became impossible, i felt awful because i knew i had these very important pieces. I went to see a lawyer, a lawyer who is a big republican lawyer, i said i need to come forward, somebody help me. He heard about 5 minutes of my story and he said youre going to go home and keep your mouth shut. Youre going to go to prison for the rest of your life if you come forward. The next month, it was watching the congressional hearing ripping these guys apart that there were Little Details that were said that made me realize holy cow, this guy peter strzok is the guy who sent these instructions and its Little Details and the things they have said and they have since confirmed to me you are correct in what you figured out. Martha what do you say to folks who watch this and they say hes spinning a yarn . Yeah, listen. I put everything on the line, i was warned that im going to be destroyed by this, all of washington is going to try to grind me into dust, i had to eject from the company. I cant bring that on the company. If you want to help me, go buy your daughter a pillow at overstock. Com. The entirety of washington is going to come down on me and destroy me, i had to get out of the way. Martha peter strzok would watch this and say hes full of it, i had nothing to do with anything. I can tell you, if you want to see a former director grabbed his pants stick a Television Camera on peter strzok or james comey and say the name Patrick Byrne. You will see a former director crap his pants. Martha thank you very much, Patrick Byrne joining us tonight. Matthew whitaker, a former acting u. S. Attorney general, your thoughts on what he had to say. He tells an interesting story ends with light on specifics so we are going to have to wait and hear exactly what the specifics are. The good news is the one person who needs those specifics has them. I believe bill barr and john durham are going to give full transparency to the American People as to the origins of this investigation and if these things line up and we hear the full story, we may look back at this video as a great opportunity to hear directly from someone who was involved in this investigation. Martha this whole question of maria butina who is 18 months in prison because she didnt register as a Foreign Agent what did you think about the part of the story where he says they told him please, go ahead, have this relationship with her, go to the meeting and report back to us . And when she started reaching out to these republican entities and heading in that direction, at that point when he started asking questions they said hands off, we dont want to talk about any of that . He is describing it like he was being used as a source and being inserted into a situation by the feds and there are protocols for handling sources and they will be recorded. All of this can be corroborated and that is the key. This whole situation has to be corroborated. The best thing about john durhams he has a full picture of everything in this investigation . Martha do you think is credible . Its hard for me to say. Martha were you aware of him when you are at the doj . Only that i knew of the Company Overstock and that was only as a citizen who buys stuff off the internet. It wasnt a name that crossed my transit but i was supervising the mueller investigation. We werent looking at the origins until we had the investigation done. Martha it doesnt sound like he was ever asked any questions about the investigation, do you think thats odd to . A little bit, i do. The question boils down to in 2016, why did the feds let this entire russian interference operation continue without abatement . That is what this whole story feeds into and in 2018 and 2020, youre going to see that Trump Administration do a much different effort against these interference efforts and thats the real story here. Martha he has turned over his story to john durham, we dont know what they will find. We are giving them an opportunity to tell his side of the story and we will see what comes of all of this. Matt whitaker, great to have you listening in and commenting on it. Coming up next, President Trump floats the idea of ending a birthright citizenship in the United States. Will he follow through on this . Or is it fueling his critics claiming the president is up to this for some other reason . We will talk about that with Corey Lewandowski coming up nex next.

Citizen, we are looking at it seriously. At martha President Trump and knighting backlash about a possible end to birthright citizenship. Nearly one year, he floated the idea of using an executive order to do so, legal experts warned it would run afoul of the 14th amendment in the u. S. Constitution. The now Kamala Harris is mocking the president on twitter writing this president should seriously consider reading the constitution. Here now, former Trump Campaign manager Corey Lewandowski. First of all, very interesting discussion with Patrick Byrne, what is your reaction to that . It may have been the craziest interview ive ever seen in my life. I have been kneedeep in this investigation, ive testified in front of the house, the senate, the mueller investigators, never have i heard of this individual, never has he been brought up in conversations, he had nothing to do with the campaign and if he was somehow involved with this former russian spy, she was likely using him as a source for information. It seemed like a lot of black helicopters flying around this guys world, he said it was of the fbi but he kept referencing peter strzok, lisa page, we know those are bad people. We know they should have been fired a long time ago, i think we should dig deeper on him. I think the senate should call him and ask him some questions because i have the privilege of going back in front of the House Committee on september 17th. Martha my guess is people will want to talk to him, he said he turned over the story to john durham. Well see where it all goes, its a very interesting story and as i said, there are some sources who think there might be credibility to his story. We put it out there and well see where it goes. Birthright citizenship, is this a wise move for the president to pursue this . I think it is. What this president has said, there is a path to become a citizen of the United States. He is moved from a bloodline relationship to having a meritbased system much more in line with what canada and australia has. If the United States needs what your specialty is, we should absently encourage you to come here as an immigrant and we want to accept you. Just because all of a sudden you came across the border, you had a baby, that doesnt make you a u. S. Citizen because we have a very porous border. We need to close that border so we know whos coming in and once that problem is solved, this whole issue goes away. Martha there are facilities in San Francisco where they will put you up for a week, you have your child there and you had back to that mostly caters to asian people who want to have american citizens. A lot of talk about president s saying he is upset about the talk of potential for economic recession, that is why he has gone off the rails. How does he seem to you . He was in New Hampshire last thursday night, i was with him on friday, hes not off the rails. When you turn on the Mainstream Media over the weekend, it was recession, recession, recession, he has created 9. 2 trillion in stock market value, 600,000 new manufacturing jobs, there is no recession. We are at a 50 year low for unemployment claims, we have the lowest unemployment claims, you will know all the statistics but thats the narrative the media wants to go after the president on. It goes upside down for 15 seconds, theyre going to blame the president. We are the hottest economy in the world because of the tax cuts and the deregulation environment his administration has done. Martha we took up a lot of time with that first interview, next time you come, were going to talk about a potential senate race for you in New Hampshire. Coming up next. He can no longer effectively serve as a new York City Police officer. Martha what a story this is, what happens if the police are fearful of doing their job because of the ferguson effect has taken root in america. Like salonpas patch large.

Com tv theres a saying within the police department, the job is dead. In reality, the job has been dying and today the job is dead. Martha strong words, where are we headed one police in new york and chicago and baltimore fear reprisal for doing their job . Heather mcdonald calls it the ferguson effect when they see other officers fired even after there is a city investigation and in this case two federal investigations that all three found the officer in this case to be not guilty. New York City Police officers expressed shock and outrage that officer daniel pantaleo, who was involved in eric garners death, was fired after political pressure from the mayor and president ial candidate bill de blasio. No evidence for indictment, that wasnt enough for our leaders, then they pushed for a federal investigation. There was one. There was two. They found no evidence of a crime. This is a Police Commissioner who went to that station house and said we have his back, he did nothing wrong. So i asked, whats changed . Martha that same Police Commissioner who said he had Daniel Pantaleos back and he did nothing wrong, who has now fired him appeared on cbs this morning, watch this. It was a difficult decision. He was right where we told him to be. The lieutenant sent him there. Based on the work, the trial, the evidence, testimony, after i looked at all the evidence, that was the decision that i made and i thought that was the one that had to be made. Now lynch says the officers are operating in a whole new reality and he had cautioned them saying we are urging all new York City Police officers to proceed with the utmost caution in this new reality in which they may be deemed reckless just for doing their job. Lets bring in ed mullins, president of the Nypd Sergeants Benevolent Association and Heather Mcdonald wasnt studied police and Law Enforcement across this country, shes the author of war on cops, how the new attack on law and order makes everyone less safe. I see exactly what you just described, the Police Officers in this city are very concerned about their next job, whats going to happen on their next assignment. They are not really focused on these qualityoflife crimes. Vagrants in the street, disorderly people because this is where things go wrong. I do know that people Walking Around the streets calling victims of violent crimes, they called 911 of the Police Respond we shouldnt be in a situation where someone loses their life are an officer gets hurt or anything along those lines. Two weeks ago, a woman in Greenwich Village was assaulted and numerous witnesses called 911 and police didnt make an arrest, they avoided it. We are really going down a slippery slope and i think the good people in the city need to come out in force and to start demanding accountability from their mayor and a lame duck Police Commissioner. Martha this is bill barr talking about this not long ago in new orleans in the big picture, watch this. Over the past few years there have been increasing vocal minority that regularly attacks the police and advances the narrative that is the police who are the bad guys, not the criminals. Whenever there is a confrontation involving the use of force by police, they automatically start screaming for the officers scalps, regardless of the facts. Martha very different interpretation at the federal level than what we are seeing at some of these cities, in new york, chicago, baltimore. The problem here, this is an agonizing decision and its tragic that eric garner lost his life, the real problem here is the police chief including oneill have been cowers over the last couple of years. If they have allowed this racebased narrative to become utterly dominant in Public Discourse rather than educating the public and the press about why officers are in high crime neighborhoods. Its because the lawabiding people in those communities bag for more officers, more enforcement to get the dealers off the streets, to get the lowlevel offenders off the streets, and instead they allow this racial narrative that somehow eric garner died because he was black race had nothing to do with this. They let this poisonous narrative get out of control, they find themselves at the end of the day faced with this terrible decision of allegedly providing justice, Racial Justice for the black community or maybe being more careful about the facts. When officers back off of proactive policing, the data is utterly clear. Crime goes through the roof and the people that suffer are the lawabiding residents of minority communities. Martha do you agree with that . I agree, oneill is a coward and many of the chiefs and politicians martha he is a Police Officer for 34 years. His background is somewhat checkered and people dont really bring that out. If he has been a Police Officer for 30, 40 years, he has been brattons protege ultimately the problem we have is police in the city in new york and what heather just said, the real victims are going to be people in poor committees, minority communities and the truth is that they do support the police. The silent majority is allowing this to occur because the squeaky wheel is getting the grease. Martha the deputy Police Commissioner did an investigation after, there was a Staten Island investigation and two federal investigations, all that found no criminal activity on the part of this officer, why did she find it . We heard the Police Commissioner say when he looked at the evidence, he believed the firing was merited. The Police Commissioner is not telling everyone the truth, i know for a fact that Police Commissioner was not going to fire officer pantaleo. This changed between friday and monday morning, there was an argument between the mayor. This has been accounted to meet through numerous people who told me what occurred at city hall. He was going to give them his pension, the pda had a deal to not fire him and allow officer pantaleo to walk out the door and keep his pension. Hes made over 300 rests in the city of new york, he had a good record fighting crime, hes an anticrime officer who was sent out to enforce cigarettes thats not what anticrime officers do. Martha thank you both. There are fires burning across the amazon forest and the social Media Campaign that has followed is exploding.
