Hi everyone, welcome. I'm Spiro with Newsbud, joined with the founder and editor of Newsbud Subel Edmonds. And we also have a couple other team members here from the Newsbud crew joining us. We have Kurt Nimmo and the latest addition to the team, Daniel Bagley. Well, we've just concluded the second week of our fundraising on Kickstarter. We're just starting the third week. And so far, we'd like2/186
to thank everyone who has contributed to this Kickstarter program. As you may know, Newsbud is 100% people funded and we rely on you for your support. Our main two systems for funding, as you know, we don't run ads. We don't take government kickbacks or foundation money. We were totally dependent on the public. So we have this fundraising campaign taking place now. And we also encourage subscriptions3/186
at our website where you'll have access to exclusive content every week. And we're going to have some more information coming up in a bit about that. But for now, I'd like to welcome Spel Edmonds. How are you doing today on this Mother's Day, Saville? Hello, everyone. I want to start by saying happy Mother's Day to all of you out there who are mothers or who are4/186
expecting. Or I have to say those of you who are planning to become mothers. I'm a mom and I know it's a special day. So we are not going to take a long, long time here with this briefing that we have with our team members. But I just wanted to first start with wishing all of you a happy Mother's Day. And I think it's the most5/186
special, the most important role we all have in life. I know that doesn't sound really feminist day. But I don't think I can be characterized as such. This is today, the first day of our third week for our Kickstarter. We have been doing very good. But we have a long way to go. We are not even close to being halfway there. So those of you who6/186
have not yet contributed to our Kickstarter campaign, please do that. And do so today. Don't wait to last minute. Don't wait till later. If you enjoy what we have been providing to you consistently. And that's one thing we have been. We have been very consistent. Please do your share. Whatever it is, the amount is not important. Just be honest with yourself and say, how much do7/186
I believe they deserve this stellar team of news? And I'm so glad to see Kurt Nemo here today with us. I have to say Kurt is one of those journalists that I have tremendous amount of respect for. And it's not only because of all the great work he does. And that includes his amazing articles. I know we have many, many subscribers at news. But who make8/186
comments specifically saying that I always look forward to Kurt's articles, my favorite article series at news. But so it's not only his work, but it's everything about Kurt. His honesty, he is straightforward. Kurt, I know you're blushing in there. I don't like putting people in this spot here. But I think once in a while it's good to let all the stuff that are kind of bottled9/186
up inside me out because I know a lot of our viewers right now they are not in and they're saying yes. We are really truly honored to have you on our team. And I can't express my feelings of having this incredible team and you as part of that team. And with that said, I know you have a very short time period. In fact, we almost didn't10/186
make it today. So we don't want to hold you up here for too long. And I'll pass the mic to you and to Spiro and have you tell us or tell our viewers what you believe, what you think, whatever it is you want to talk about. And that's where we can let you go. Kurt, we're not picking up your audio here, Kurt. No, we're having a11/186
little bit of difficulty hearing you. At least I'm not hearing you. Kurt. All right, yes. I still hear anything. Well, that's a little bit of technical difficulties. We had Kurt's audio hooked up here just before we went live. No, sorry, Kurt. Still not here in your hair. If you'd like, you can try to maybe drop out and come back into the room here. That might solve12/186
the issue. I'm not sure what the issue is here with that. But well, we hopefully, maybe Kurt, if you can try to leave the room and then come back in, maybe that'll work. So, okay, well, while we're working out that minor glitch, we'd like to also welcome the newest member of the NewsBud team, Daniel Bagley. How you doing today, Daniel? Welcome. Thanks. I'm doing pretty good.13/186
How are you doing? Doing good. Doing good. Glad to have you here. Daniel is, like I said, the newest addition of the team. He wrote a recent article for us and he's got some more work coming up. We're excited to have him join the team here. Let's see. Subil, do you have any questions for Daniel about his previous article? Oh, absolutely. In fact, I'm sorry, Daniel,14/186
because I should have sent you some of this questions ahead of time. But it was an amazing expose. It's an investigative report that is so well researched. And we have some findings that we have not to the state, read anywhere, heard anywhere. You talked about the native lands and how certain interest groups have been really playing a major role behind the scenes. And I think the15/186
emphasis here has to be behind the scenes covert would be another appropriate word on influencing what we have been seeing in terms of developments. And a good example of it, for example, would be the North Dakota pipeline and all the protests and all the news headlines that we went through. And during this entire period, whether by the mainstream media or the so-called alternatives, we kept looking16/186
at only two sides. One were these native lands. And of course, these amazing courageous people who were protesting. And then the second group was the, let's call them the bad guys. So we are looking at the oil industry players and in their lobby groups and their activities. But your expose, they goes beyond everything and brings into light something that nobody has reported on. And that is17/186
the part that for me is mind boggling because from the other side, so we have the, you have, we have the native lands and the native Americans and the protesters and we have the big oil, you know, companies. But then there is another group which consists of all the names that I believe our viewers, our readers were very interested in reading about it. And I know18/186
it came as a shock to them as well. These interests, such as the Rockefeller Foundation. And here it is. If you haven't read Daniel's article, you can go to our website and read his investigative report. You're exposing the connection of the Clinton Family Foundation. Here it is. Clinton and Rockefeller foundations. And I don't want to give up too much or too many facts from your coming19/186
articles. But we also, we are going to get into the people like George Soros, et cetera and some of the media with their spins during this entire several month long broadcast and the headline hot topics of the North Dakota pipeline. So my question to you is you were able to, as an investigative journalist, Daniel, you were able to dig and dig and find other influences, other20/186
major players in this whole of dynamics, in the whole dilemma of the North Dakota pipeline and other native land related conservation issues, such as the Clinton Foundation and George Soros and Rockefeller foundations. What I don't know is why in the world all these seasoned investigative journalists with unlimited budgets, right, the New York Times, CBS 60 minutes, or even the so-called alternative, the billionaire, Pierre Ormit-Yar, with21/186
$500 million worth alternative news organization and dozens of investigative journalists. Why do you believe is it that we didn't hear about these facts about the facts that some of the main actors players involved here, covert ones, happened to be Clinton Foundation, Rockefeller foundations and George Soros foundations, et cetera. Why do you think you were able to find it and these seasoned billionaire news organizations have not22/186
touched upon these actors in this very, very serious issue? It seems to me that it's all about controlling the narrative. It's not consistent with the storyline they want to portray. In fact, I think they're actually playing off of the narrative in order to benefit financially. You've noticed that the Rockefellers have been divesting from oil and the Soros concept of globalization and increasing global influence. You see23/186
them working in Africa and these other nations and effectively developing them, but in fact, they're becoming dependent upon these large corporate oligarchs. That's the same thing with the Native people. They are effectively creating a dependence and then using their resources to provide in order to gain financially. It's all about global hegemony, in my opinion. Well, absolutely. I think you really touched upon the key phrase here,24/186
controlling the narratives. Now, correct me if I'm wrong. In this particular case, we have had actors such as George Soros, Clinton Foundation, and let's say Rockefeller Foundation and several others who behind the scene were actually fueling this conflict, supporting the protest, not because they are in any way interested in conservation aspect, the environmental aspect, and the rights of the Native Americans aspect of this feud. But25/186
they were interested in this because they have their own set of crappy plans, which is not going to be these plans are not going to benefit the Native Americans or those concerned environmentalists, but it still is going to benefit these global organizations and their deep deep pockets. Clinton's deep pockets, George Soros deep pockets, would you consider this characterization of your expose correct? I think so. They26/186
are going to have to at least make it appear to the people who are being provided these resources that they are benefiting essentially. They technically have ownership of, we're talking about renewable energy resources on their lands. They technically have ownership of that, but in the same way that you have ownership of your house when you're underneath a bank, they're going to be paying it off for27/186
a very long time. Even when it's paid off, all of the energy that those things create is going to go out of the native lands into the surrounding areas. It's not even provided to them. They're hooking into a larger infrastructure that the wealthy are going to profit from. Well, here I have a piece of information for you, and I want to find out if it's going28/186
to shock you, surprise you, or are you going to say, oh, of course, I had either heard of it or while I was researching, I came across this, again, sorry for putting you under the spotlight here, but within a few days after these protests, one of my sources from Washington DC sent me an email and said, you know what happened when these protests started. The third,29/186
okay, from the top, the third person in the hierarchy in George Soros organization gave a call to democracy now, Amy Goodman, and said, we want you in there and make a big scene, okay? And they organized this in such a fashion that she would get, it was fake, arrested, okay, by some of the locals there, which of course, they, their attorneys, they stepped in and they30/186
right away failed her out and released it, and with that, they made a splash all over the mainstream media. And this was not because democracy now as a journalism, you know, related organization went in there, but in fact, it was one of those, you know, how George Soros is paying these protesters, $15 per hour through Craigslist, et cetera, to go and organize protests. And in fact,31/186
get some of these protests escalate and bring in violence, the element of violence into that. And we have seen this throughout this whole election shenanigan, but it's exactly the same concept because George Soros every single year, his two foundations collectively, they write one and a half million dollars to democracy now, which means control, direct control, one and a half million dollars. Here with our Kickstarter here,32/186
we are trying to raise $15,000, $15,000, working hard through the people. And this is just one entity, one of dozens, because Rockefeller foundations gave them hundreds of thousands of dollars every year. But we always emphasize the importance of seeing through this and saying, this money that you see, okay, in this case, let's talk about democracy now, when George Soros writes that one and a half million33/186
dollar check to Amy Goodman, democracy now, it's not to say, I George Soros believe in free media and independent media and true journalism. It's not that. It is the phrase you use. It is to control the narrative. And in this particular case, George Soros saying, you know, that one and a half million dollars you received, now you need to work for it. I want you on34/186
the first plane. I want you in North Dakota. We're going to get you arrested, okay, we're going to get you arrested. Then we come and bail you out. And then we're going to make it this a headline, because in this particular case, if I'm correct, basically is the competition between this particular oil company or companies and the Rockefellers and the Clintons and the democracy now is35/186
a boss, George Soros. Are you surprised or were you surprised to hear this particular fact that came out through our source, reliable source in Washington DC? Well, yeah, I mean, Soros tends to be very good at covering his tracks. I found that, I'm sorry, I'm here in the echo on your side. It's just hard to, okay, there we go. So I, essentially, I, through my research,36/186
I found some connections between Soros and Democracy Now, but it was like kind of like the beautiful mind where you got like thumbtacks and strings and paper everywhere, because it was like he donated money to some foundation that donated to somebody else that donated to them that was affiliated with Democracy Now. It's like they shuffled the money around and sometimes it's hard to really figure out,37/186
you know, I mean, they've found a way to very convincingly hide what they're doing in a lot of ways, but so no, I wasn't aware of that direct contact, but that's pretty interesting. Well, it was an amazing piece. We are looking forward to your to your next, your coming segment on this. Again, it's going to be another hard-hitting expose. And after we speak with Kurt and38/186
hear from Kurt, I would like to come back and revisit both your coming topic, but I also know that you have another very interesting development topic you want to talk about, but meanwhile, I also want to take this as an opportunity, a quick pause, to talk about the importance of news, but you know, a lot of people have been saying why are you so allergic? And39/186
I'm using the word allergic because it's almost to a point where I get physical reaction to immediate organization, alternative or an NGO, etc. having sugar daddies and that's the term we have coined and that's the term I have been using to get these major grants in millions of dollars, not from the people, not from interest groups with good, positive humanitarian interests, but from some of the40/186
scumbags of this planet. And I use the word scumbags of the planets because when you are looking and delving into, delving into organizations, these foundations such as the billionaire Rockefellers and the Carnegie's and the George Soros's, you know, and in this same basket, I'm going to put Clinton foundations, what you're seeing are interests that are in conflict, 100% conflict with the interests of we, the people,41/186
we the people, I cannot find a single common area between George Soros as a Charlotteson billionaire and the public interest, whether those interests happen to be in the realms of the human rights or conservation issues or anti-war related issues and causes because their vested interests have always been on the opposite side. They are the enemies. When we talk about deep states, when we are talking about42/186
shadow government, when we are talking about the real main entities benefiting from these destructions, whether it's war, whether it's torture, whether it's curtailing of our civil liberties, we are looking at them, people. It is the George Soros and the pseudo fake news organizations connected to them. It is the Rockefeller foundations. We as news, but one of the pledges we have made and we are going to43/186
keep that for as long as we are in operation, we do not receive a single penny, whether it's from Koch brothers or Soros or Rockefellers or Ford Foundation, not a single penny from the sugar daddy's. We as an independent news organization do not receive a single advertisement penny, not one whether those mega corporations are oil, let's say in this case of North Dakota pipeline or whether44/186
it's the big farmers that are poisoning, poisoning us or whether are the big mega banks, okay. We do not receive a single penny from advertisement. We are the only full fledged news organization and take a look at our team. That's what I mean by full fled. I'm talking about an organization with over 15 reporters, producers, editors, technical people. None of us receive a penny from any45/186
of these entities. We are 100% people funded, 100% not 99.9%, but 100% people funded and that ensure independence and we are non partisan therefore. So we are not into the prescribing red pill or blue pill to you the viewer. What we give you is basically representing the truth giving you the facts. So please do your share. We do not have sugar daddy's. We are not going46/186
to have sugar daddy's. You are community members are the only reason the sole reason we exist today and we operate today and we have come this far and without you there won't be news. And with that please welcome Kurt Nemo and Kurt. Hi can you guys hear me now? Yes. Okay good. Sorry about that technical glitch. Yeah I wanted to add something to what Sebel said47/186
about advertising on websites. You'll notice that allows us to call alternative media websites have are just glutted with these obnoxious ads that push sex and you know all kinds of different stuff. That's what's nice about news but you're not interrupted with that stuff when you go there. It's just the material you know the information the videos. You know somebody and this is an increasing thing with48/186
with a lot of alternative news sites are not just advertisers but like I said these obnoxious ads on the content pop ups you know. So yeah I mean if you want if you want to get an undistracted straightforward you know news feed go to news but and help us out by pledging some money. Well that's right Kurt I don't think a lot of people realize this49/186
I've mentioned it a couple times that virtually every website you go to you do see the ads everywhere and I don't know if some people think that oh that's just how the internet is that's just how it works. It's the internet that's putting those ads there. Well that's actually it's not the case it's the each those individual websites that are getting paid from you know whoever's50/186
running the ads on their sites whether it's the banking industry or the pharmaceutical industry and so on. And it's a model that we see starting to get squeezed out. These a lot of these sites have been operating and depending on that ad revenue for years and we're already seeing signs all over the place that they're targeting these these supposed to you know new sites are alternative51/186
new sites and their revenue and and they're they're already starting to feel the squeeze on that and that's not only in my opinion is it a conflict of interest but it's also I mean it could hinder or skew the you know the the reporting on on whatever story it is if they have an oil company advertising on their site maybe they're not going to tell you52/186
about the latest development or scandal that's taking place with oil for example or the the pipelines and all of that so that's where the conflict of interest comes in and so we don't want to be dependent upon the corporations that can pull the plug and really put the squeeze on these sites that's why we feel that it's so critical and important to be supported by the53/186
people and as you know we're running our Kickstarter campaign right now this is our phase three campaign to fund this operation so we can pay our reporters so we can have the bandwidth and and and continue to run the website and we have over a dozen team members of the top experts in their field and I'm really proud to be a part of this team now54/186
speaking of the Kickstarter program if you go on to the page you'll see that there is some perks that you get that go along with your donation and they vary in range and there was a comment here in the comment section the live chat and by the way we encourage you guys to submit your questions about news but they're in the chat and this question is55/186
for Cebel and it says hi Cebel for the Kickstarter what exactly does the 2500 round table pack fully offer and what subjects would be discussed oh that's a great question can you please hold that thought because I like to say something here because I know Kurt is not going to be here for a long time for for this we had this uh frank communication they're always56/186
frank with with Kurt and basically we were all moning about doing this you know doing what we call fundraising because of the Kickstarter and and and and I know Kurt loves it is like ugh I loaded you loaded and we hate this and uh and and and and I want to float a a thought idea here and then I'm going to go back and answer that57/186
question is that we don't want to be doing this you know some people they say here they are every four or five months they're begging for money and all the stuff none of us are marketing people none of I mean there are some people honestly there are some radio figures I'm not going to name them here or TV personalities I think they have been groomed for
