so now i want to go back to the to the map that john smith drew that i showed showed you at the very beginning. he he published this in that volume that you're just looking at and i i this time i want to point out to the fact that john smith is traveling all around virginia for several reasons, but one thing he was looking to see if there any survivors of the colony at roanoke, you know, we call it the lost colony because they suddenly disappeared when supplies return to the mirror too afterwards in the it is that they're all gone. so he was looking to see if there are survivors of lost colony. he was also looking to see if he could find gold and minerals and of course he couldn't because they weren't there and he was also looking for a water route to the pacific ocean to the to asia to india to china. and this map was incredibly important because it's accurate and it's just a full of so much information. so, it's sir john smith that we know the most about pocahontas whose image is the next one that i and i want to show you and this is an an engraving with her by an artist named sam

when you're drafting an indictment, the only full names you write in the indictment, john smith, kateelie honig, everybody gets a generic label. and the crazy leap is, wow, there's some people that get the generic label. they must have been fbi. must have been an inside job. coconspirator, that cannot be an fbi agent. anybody working for the fbi is not part of a conspiracy. they're just pretending. no prosecutor would identify anybody working for the fbi as a coconspirator in the environment. tucker carlson does not have his facts straight at all. >> there's more to this. let me play something else. >> wait, here's the interesting thing. person two and person three were organizers of the riot. the government knows who they are. but the government has not charged them. why is that? you know why? they were almost certainly working for the fbi. >> this is, like, written and thought through. this is one of his monologue things that he goes off on. your reality check on this? >> yeah. it's the same tactic here. the use of the term person is broader than coconspirator. it's a wild leap of f

it's it's no coincidence that but the jamestown colony with john smith. and the plymouth rock pilgrims with miles standish hired soldiers of fortune to be there to be their leaders to be their emissaries. but once again, i i want to emphasize because i think it's been a bit of a disney vacation and the savages the heathens as cotton mather would call them the butcher's bill ran both ways. so for every white infant that was scalped or every white militiamen that was captured and made to dance while his fingers or his arms were chopped off or for every time a soldier was where there's one scene where they capture one of george washington's best friends and they burned him alive at the stake and after flaying him and a witness describes his brains bubbling in his skull until his his nose starts whistling like a tea kettle but once again for every indian atrocity there was a way to atrocity. i mean you had the spanish in the florida's running down seminars with packs of bloodhounds and then when they had them cornered, they would release packs of irish wolfho
