Kash Patel and Jan Jekielek
March 24, 2023
Why was the Manhattan grand jury unexpectedly delayed in the alleged Trump “hush money” case? Did District Attorney Alvin Bragg withhold exculpatory evidence? “As a prosecutor, you're not allowed to withhold evidence of innocence or something that might be damaging to your case to the grand jury you're presenting to. And that's essentially what Costello said,” says Kash Patel, in reference to recent testimony by Michael Cohen’s former lawyer, Robert Costello. We also take a look at the recent Saudi-Iran deal brokered by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and the CCP’s ambitions to replace the petrodollar with the yuan. China has also offered a 12-point peace plan to end the Russia-Ukraine War. Vladimir Putin welcomed the proposal during a recent joint press conference with Xi Jinping. “It's a total farce for China to go in and say, we're going to be the peace negotiators … They’re committing genocide in their own country,” Kash Patel says. “But just think about the messaging and the propaganda that the CCP gains from this. … They're getting the narrative out there that China, the CCP, is the peace negotiators of the modern day, not the United States of America.”
