GEN. MCINERNEY: The fact is COVID-19 was a 24 biological attack on the world. It was, to number one, impact 25 the economies, look at it. Look at this place [Washington, Page 1 Transcript of Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney, Jan. 08, 2021 Page 1 Page 2 Page 2 1 D.C.], this is the first time I have been here since COVID-19. 2 It's an air raid. 3 So, they have impacted our economies. 4 No. 2, it was a direct attack on the election, and 5 they knew what was going to happen. So obviously, the 6 Democrats, whether they're in the party or in collusion with 7 them. 8 They initially started with Hong Kong. Taking over 9 Hong Kong. Violating what the treaty was and all that. So, 10 they wanted... its hybrid warfare using cyberwarfare and 11 different tools, economics and a whole host of things to 12 change the world. 13 They have done it very effectively, and what we are 14 all of a sudden realizing... I didn't become involved in this 15 until the first of November (2020) when I found out that the 16 program Hammer and Scorecard were going to be used as a 17 cyberweapons tool, cyber warfare tool, to take and change the 18 voting, and it did. 19 I called Rudy [Giuliani] and Sydney [Powell] and 20 someone got me in touch with them and I told them on the first 21 of November [3], Sunday. 22 On the 2nd [Nov. 02, 2020], I was on Steve Bannon's 23 show with Sydney [Powell] as a co-host saying what was going 24 to happen. And on the 3rd, what happened? It's factual. Page 2 Transcript of Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney, Jan. 08, 2021 Page 2 Page 3 Page 3 1 As of now we have unconstitutional government, and 2 you don't even have to know what I know about the cyberwarfare 3 because they violated their [state] constitutions when they 4 changed the rules. 5 Let's examine those battle ground states that they 6 know the fraudulent voting came in [from]. It always comes in 7 late at night, 8 And so, what we found ourselves with, and again, I 9 found this out Tuesday night [Nov. 4, 2020], they've taken 10 control, they have taken control of our society. 11 We have just one person, we just came from there in 12 the White House, standing in the way, and it is going to 13 mean, you don't fully realize it, but every one of us here, 14 every American out there, is going to have to stand up 15 We read about it in history. 16 We read about Normandy, and all that. 17 But now, we are in it. 18 And so, we must spread it. 19 We cannot surrender. 20 And the President said he wouldn't give up. 21 You all know that the attack on the Capitol was done 22 by Antifa, but it was enabled by McConnell, by Schumer, by 23 Pelosi, and the mayor [Muriel Bowser]. Page 3 Transcript of Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney, Jan. 08, 2021 Page 3 Page 4 Page 4 1 They knew that was coming. You've all been up there. 2 There were hardly any security police there, and they moved 3 in, and Antifa did their thing, then the media picked it up. 4 I worked for Fox for almost 17 years, and it is 5 disgraceful what they are doing. Unfortunately, Rupert 6 [Murdoch] is driving that with his sons, and they have now 7 merged with the rest of the mainstream media. 8 This is serious. This is expanding. We cannot let it 9 happen. We don't have four years. As Hong Kong has seen, we do 10 not have time. Time is against us. 11 Ann and I were just talking to someone about the 12 information that is being released that shows clearly in those 13 battleground states the cyberwarfare that was used. 14 We also found out, I found out yesterday, that 15 [James B.] Comey, the former FBI Director, sold the Hammer and 16 Scorecard, this top-secret program to the Chinese. 17 You now have this top-secret program that is like 18 your iPhone. It gets in, it’s called Hammer, it gets in to the 19 voting network, then it has an application, like on your 20 iPhone, you have all those apps. 21 It [Hammer] puts it on, and it modulates the voting 22 so they win. Not by a large number. 23 I got a call Tuesday night at 11:30 pm [Nov. 03, 24 2020, Election Day]that the ISI [Inter-Services Intelligence] 25 from Pakistan was now in the voting machines in Georgia. I Page 4 Transcript of Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney, Jan. 08, 2021 Page 4 Page 5 Page 5 1 called someone, let them know, the two [Republican] 2 candidates, Loeffler and Perdue [Sen. Kelly Loeffler nor David 3 Perdue], were ahead. 4 I watched. One hour later they were behind. 5 I thought that they should stop it. 6 I think their game plan is, no, let them do it. We 7 have this evidence. We will present this evidence to the 8 American people so we [pointing to the listeners in the hotel 9 lobby] can judge. We don't need someone to tell us. We can 10 tell when we have unconstitutional acts going against us. 11 And when you think about it, COVID-19, why are they 12 trying to kill our small businesses and make everybody 13 dependent on the government? 14 Democratic socialism is the front door to communism. 15 None of us ever thought that we would be in that 16 position today where this country became a communist society. 17 But think of what is happening right now in Twitter, 18 and Facebook. They won't let the President be on it. They're 19 censoring the President of the United States. 20 This is amazing, in our country, that we would have 21 ever thought this would happen. 22 That is why I was so disappointed in the Vice 23 President [Michael R. Pence]. He had the opportunity. Because, 24 if we had a 10-day audit, it would be very clear to all of us, Page 5 Transcript of Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney, Jan. 08, 2021 Page 5 Page 6 Page 6 1 and all 323 million Americans, whatever the number is today. 2 It would be very clear what has happened to our society. 3 So, God bless you. Let's keep fighting it. Let's 4 support this President and the people like ourselves that 5 understand what's happening in front of us. 6 We shall not let it happen. We cannot let it happen. 7 I never thought we'd have so many Americans who have 8 betrayed [us], and I believe it is for money, and the Chinese 9 are moving the money. 10 LISTENER: [Question and comment on Italy's role re. 11 Leonardo SpA satellite systems.] 12 LT. GEN. MCINERNEY: That's true. 13 There were many countries that were doing that 14 [changing US 2020 votes], but it had to be controlled from 15 China using Hammer and Scorecard, in my opinion, you cannot 16 have so many different attacks because you would be changing 17 numbers in all 50 states, it just wouldn’t match up. That has 18 to be synchronized. 19 And they all do it, like it was late at night. 20 This is a scorecard from Joseph Goebbels [Minister 21 of Propaganda of Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945]. 22 [Goebbels:] “If you tell a lie big enough.” 23 That's what they are doing. 24 And you see Pelosi, you see Schumer. Page 6 Transcript of Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney, Jan. 08, 2021 Page 6 Page 7 Page 7 1 Ann [Vandersteel] just told me that Pelosi called 2 the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark 3 Milley, and they are trying to get him [President Trump] out 4 under the 25th Amendment, or to impeach him. 5 Why? 6 Well, because on Wednesday they took Pelosi's 7 laptop. She's frantic. 8 There were some people in there, [American] Special 9 Forces, mixed with Antifa, and they took her laptop, and they 10 have that data. So, you'd say, well look, you've only got 12 11 days, or whatever it is, until the 20th, why worry about it? 12 Just let him go out.

    TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY Texas Tech is a state-supported, multipurpose university of over 23,000 students enrolled in six colleges-Agricultural Sciences, Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, Education, Engineering, and Home Economics- and two schools-the Graduate School and the School of Law. The_Texas Tech Health Sciences Center-a separate institution- and the Museum share the Lubbock campus with the University. As is necessary for an educational institution of its scope and purposes, Texas Tech operates in several locations. Beyond its 1,839-acre Lubbock campus- all in one tract-the University operates a 13,822-acre agricultural and biological laboratory through the Texas Tech University Center at Amarillo. Under development are other agricultural research and teaching facilities in Lubbock County and in Terry County. As a part of its medical role, the Health Sciences Center has in various stages of development three Regional academic Health Centers: in Amarillo, in El Paso, and in Odessa-Midland. The Texas Tech University Center at Junction, in the Texas hill country, is a 411-acre unit consisting of classroom and lodging facilities. Paul Whitfield Horn, the first president of Texas Tech, drew from the broad open plains of West Texas his vision for the institution. "Let us make the work of our college fit into the scope of our country," he said. "Let our thoughts be big thoughts and broad thoughts. Let our thinking be in world-wide-terms." Horn's challenge to Texas Tech, now embarked on its second fifty years, continues as a viable force. His insight is most evident as we-faculty and students, administrators and alumni, supporters and friends- strive to shape the University's programs and activities to meet the highest standards of excellence in teaching, research, and public service.

  • National Security Experts Warn of the Dangers of an Iranian EMP Attack
    National security experts warn of the dangers of an Iranian EMP attack Christopher Collins November 20, 2013 Amidst the Obama administration’s ongoing efforts on Tuesday to negotiate only a partial reduction in Iran’s uranium enrichment in exchange for the easing of sanctions, a panel of noted national security experts is warning of the dangers of an Iranian electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack. In statements sent to the Paulding County Republican Examiner, the panel gathered on Tuesday and discussed the danger of that country’s escalating nuclear program and the risk that such capabilities could result in an electromagnetic pulse attack on the United States, Israel, or other allied nations. The panel of national security experts was sponsored by EMPACTAmerica and moderated by Frank J. Gaffney, Jr., President and CEO of the Center for Security Policy and former Acting Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Policy. Gaffney, in his own remarks, discussed the nature of a nuclear-detonated EMP attack, the effect of which would be to take down the electrical grid indefinitely and the potential for an Iranian EMP attack in light of that regime’s determination to develop nuclear weapons and frequently stated intent to bring about “a world without America”. Ambassador John Bolton, former United States Representative to the United Nations, and Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney, USAF (Ret.), former Assistant Vice Chief of Staff, United States Air Force, discussed the dangers, from both a foreign policy and defense perspective of lifting sanctions or of otherwise negotiating with Tehran on its nuclear weapons program. Furthermore, Bolton noted that President Obama’s troubling decision effectively to “chase down” Iranian president Rouhani in order to negotiate a deal would have ramifications for American credibility in the Middle East.

  • Strategy for Defeating Radical Islam Lt. General Thomas Mcinerney
    Strategy for Defeating Radical Islam Lt. General Thomas McInerney, USAF (Ret.) I would like to thank Professor Dick Thornton and the ISSP for hosting this important symposium and these important subjects that are being discussed today. Now I have challenged myself to lay out a strategy for defeating radical Islam in a very short time frame, but at least it is a start from an administration that has only enabled radical Islam to spread and destabilize the Middle East like no other time in history to include the Crusades. If we look at the Mideast in 2009 when Obama came into office, we had neutralized AQ in Iraq; Syria was quite stable under Bashir Al Assad; Egypt under President Mubarak was a firm ally of 40 years; Libya under Col. Ghadafi had switched to our side and turned in all his nuclear materials, plus he was killing radical Islamists in Benghazi; and Yemen was just festering with AQAP. Our relationship with Saudi and the Gulf States was excellent. Then the Obama Administration came in, and his famous speech in June 2009 at Cairo University that welcomed the Muslim Brotherhood and ignored President Mubarak laid the conditions for the Arab Spring, which has become an Arab Winter. He opened the way for the creation of ISIS when he pulled out U.S. forces in Iraq in December 2011, which made Iraq an Iranian proxy. Not only was Iraq destabilized, but Syria was as well, and Egypt was turned over to the Muslim Brotherhood. In fact, President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton covertly switched sides to radical Islam by supporting Morsi’s election until overthrown by Gen.

Few favor regime change as an end in itself. While the Bush administration does not yet explicitly call for changing the regime, it advocates working with the Iranian people as opposed to the unelected theocracy in Tehran, which is an implicit policy of regime change.
