  • 00:00:07
    he changed his medication within days of
  • 00:00:09

    after I did the interview a lot of
  • 00:00:31
    people nobody knew that I had the
  • 00:00:32
    manifesto I had to be very quiet for a
  • 00:00:34

    relevant incidents like this because
  • 00:00:44
    just like I had posted on the New
  • 00:00:45
    Orleans guy so I was like being very
  • 00:00:47

  • 00:00:56

    it's just the guy had a mental break and
  • 00:01:10
    that was reporting what were the odds of
  • 00:01:12
    that to start with did there was gravity
  • 00:01:14
    drones anti-gravity drones flying around
  • 00:01:17
    or the guy had a mental break I mean
  • 00:01:19
    what would you call it if you had to
  • 00:01:20
    gamble and said what do you think
  • 00:01:22
    happened here boy oh boy did Sean do a
  • 00:01:25
    retraction hey we made a mistake
  • 00:01:27
    probably right show and it blew up and
  • 00:01:29
    people were like holy crap they knew who
  • 00:01:31
    I was and people on my Instagram page
  • 00:01:34
    started telling me things so I had a lot
  • 00:01:36
    of people reaching out telling me what
  • 00:01:37
    they had talked to but with their with
  • 00:01:39
    their Green Beret buddies uh one person
  • 00:01:41
    reached out and told me they were they
  • 00:01:42
    had a very close connection to members
  • 00:01:44
    of the family which I won't I won't go
  • 00:01:46
    into but uh what I've learned since then
  • 00:01:50
    and I'm going to say allegedly because I
  • 00:01:51
    don't have proof of this but I've had
  • 00:01:53
    three people tell me this there's a lot
  • 00:01:55
    of alleged stuff come out of this guy
  • 00:01:58
    not against him I I get all sorts of DM
  • 00:02:01
    all sorts of from people do I run
  • 00:02:03
    with it no just can't verify it I don't
  • 00:02:06
    go to Shawn Ryan and say hey three tier
  • 00:02:09
    one guys hit me up about a story in
  • 00:02:12
    Syria because I'm not it's not my jam
  • 00:02:14
    allegedly Matt liberer changed his meds
  • 00:02:18
    several days prior to this incident I
  • 00:02:21
    don't know what several days means but
  • 00:02:23
    what I was told by several people who I
  • 00:02:26
    I value their input and or close to the
  • 00:02:28
    situation told me that was on antis
  • 00:02:30
    psychotic medication he had changed his
  • 00:02:33
    medications and they said that basically
  • 00:02:36
    something crazy happened and he became
  • 00:02:38
    suicidal why wouldn't that be your first
  • 00:02:40
    guess when you got this stuff that 19
  • 00:02:43
    years in the Matt saw lots of warfare he
  • 00:02:47
    had some pts but that'd be my first
  • 00:02:49
    guess I wouldn't think about
  • 00:02:50
    anti-gravity drones and war crimes he
  • 00:02:53
    feels bad for I just wouldn't think that
  • 00:02:55
    that'd be my first intuitive I wouldn't
  • 00:02:57
    go to the drones over the White House
  • 00:03:00
    as real I I just wouldn't do that as a
  • 00:03:03
    person so this isn't a shocker to me the
  • 00:03:05
    Shocker is it was broken as oh my God
  • 00:03:10
    it's like Independence Day the movie
  • 00:03:12
    people ask me is he sane was he whatever
  • 00:03:15
    well no I've gotten two stories on this
  • 00:03:18
    and I want people to hear me very
  • 00:03:20
    carefully on this because I can't we
  • 00:03:22
    just say he wasn't of CLA mind if he was
  • 00:03:24
    getting medication psych meds right
  • 00:03:27
    there's plenty of psych meds that can be
  • 00:03:28
    used for psych osis schizophren all
  • 00:03:31
    sorts of different look at the psych Med
  • 00:03:33
    indications okay I'm on an anti-seizure
  • 00:03:35
    Med do I have seizures no it's for some
  • 00:03:38
    neurologic problems okay so when you get
  • 00:03:40
    into guys talking about meds here the
  • 00:03:42
    family said the this the said nobody
  • 00:03:45
    knows you take a med you look it up it
  • 00:03:47
    could be used for all of these things
  • 00:03:50
    but may not apply the VA gives out psych
  • 00:03:52
    meds for back problems okay so the
  • 00:03:57
    dod we again we're specula in he was on
  • 00:04:00
    anti psychotic come on now come on
  • 00:04:03
    saying two different things at the same
  • 00:04:05
    time what his what I have heard from
  • 00:04:08
    family members and and this is what I
  • 00:04:10
    put out I think I put this out on the
  • 00:04:11
    Sha Ryan podcast because I heard this
  • 00:04:13
    from I I I saw this on social media I
  • 00:04:15
    did not I have not personally talked to
  • 00:04:16
    any family members let me make that
  • 00:04:18
    clear I saw on social media that members
  • 00:04:21
    of his family had said that this was not
  • 00:04:23
    normal for him he was very normal he was
  • 00:04:26
    very San mind his teammates were shocked
  • 00:04:28
    everything everybody was shocked because
  • 00:04:30
    he was not a crazy dude whatever else
  • 00:04:32
    and that's what I knew and then after
  • 00:04:34
    the podcast I found out that it was it
  • 00:04:35
    was literally he changed his medication
  • 00:04:37
    within days of this event again why
  • 00:04:40
    wouldn't that be the first assumption
  • 00:04:41
    that he was on
  • 00:04:42
    medication all the history we know from
  • 00:04:45
    these guys in the G with multiple tours
  • 00:04:47
    of combat TBI all of that you just go
  • 00:04:50
    first assumption he had a mental break
  • 00:04:53
    first assumption instead of anti-gravity
  • 00:04:56
    drones over the white house and he got a
  • 00:04:59
    conscience about Collateral
  • 00:05:01
    Damage I mean am I off here so this guy
  • 00:05:05
    ran with it no fault to him you know
  • 00:05:07
    he's just a guy Shawn ran with it I'm
  • 00:05:09
    sure Shawn thought this was all facts
  • 00:05:11
    I'm sure he'll come out and say hey I
  • 00:05:13
    made a boo boo here it seems like
  • 00:05:15
    obvious stuff doesn't it this was a big
  • 00:05:18
    deal trending everywhere and something
  • 00:05:20
    shifted so if his family had not seen
  • 00:05:23
    that within the days of this he could
  • 00:05:25
    have act been acting very bizarre very
  • 00:05:27
    strange and the Manifest that he wrote
  • 00:05:30
    along with these letters and everything
  • 00:05:32
    else the guy the guy was clearly and I
  • 00:05:34
    will I will stick to this his desire was
  • 00:05:37
    to
  • 00:05:38
    um his desire was to send a message it
  • 00:05:42
    wasn't to do a mass casualty event it
  • 00:05:44
    wasn't to screw anybody over it was okay
  • 00:05:46
    there were seven people injured I know
  • 00:05:48
    it says minor injuries in AP but he
  • 00:05:50
    parked the thing in front of a hotel all
  • 00:05:52
    right I could have been walking out of
  • 00:05:54
    the
  • 00:05:55
    hotel at 3 in the morning on a
  • 00:05:58
    bender in the concussion would have
  • 00:06:00
    would have been an injury right he could
  • 00:06:03
    have done it at the Las Vegas
  • 00:06:05
    sign so I'm not giving him a pass on
  • 00:06:07
    blowing the car the truck up in front of
  • 00:06:09
    the Trump Hotel I understand the
  • 00:06:12
    implosion was internal but I mean you're
  • 00:06:14
    sitting there and you're right next to
  • 00:06:15
    walking out on a bender in
  • 00:06:17
    Vegas chasing strippies I mean you know
  • 00:06:21
    I'm not going to give the guy a pass by
  • 00:06:23
    doing in front of a hotel in Vegas now I
  • 00:06:25
    mean he had a mental problem I
  • 00:06:26
    understand but we have to say he blew
  • 00:06:29
    himself up in front of a hotel in in Las
  • 00:06:31
    Vegas with a car to make this message as
  • 00:06:34
    prominent as possible and I still
  • 00:06:36
    believe that he was not trying to blow
  • 00:06:38
    up that Tower in my opinion my opinion
  • 00:06:40
    he was not trying to blow up the tower
  • 00:06:41
    he was not trying to kill a bunch of
  • 00:06:43
    people the dude and I I say this
  • 00:06:47
    respectfully to his teammates I say this
  • 00:06:49
    respectfully to his family the dude had
  • 00:06:51
    a screw loose okay I I'm not going to
  • 00:06:53
    get into the the labeling of him I don't
  • 00:06:57
    know what his situation was but I
  • 00:06:58
    believe that he had a a a psychotic
  • 00:07:01
    break he whatever he was living with
  • 00:07:03
    from whatever he thinks happened in 2019
  • 00:07:06
    whether it happened or not these alleged
  • 00:07:08
    war crimes I got this information from
  • 00:07:10
    the veteran biker check out his channel
  • 00:07:11
    in the description this Dale Stark right
  • 00:07:14
    Dale Stark don't know his stuff there a
  • 00:07:17
    180 right instead of saying looks like
  • 00:07:21
    the guy had a mental break let's just
  • 00:07:22
    see what happens here let's get this
  • 00:07:24
    reporting we come out about the gravity
  • 00:07:27
    anti-gravity the White House
  • 00:07:28
    Independence Day movies skit the war
  • 00:07:31
    crimes and now we're like oh yeah I got
  • 00:07:33
    some new information was Sean just
  • 00:07:35
    trying to break the news CU see sea was
  • 00:07:38
    serious about this look at his Twitter
  • 00:07:40
    feed he's going disappearing going in
  • 00:07:42
    hiding he was very serious I'm not
  • 00:07:44
    knocking Shawn Ryan it just seems like
  • 00:07:47
    somebody just said hold on let me back
  • 00:07:49
    up maybe the old guy in the room for a
  • 00:07:50
    second this just hold lot for a second
  • 00:07:53
    we're going to have the DNA of the man
  • 00:07:54
    cuz the Army's got it that's what we're
  • 00:07:57
    going to have we're not going to relate
  • 00:07:58
    it to his kid that doesn't make any
  • 00:07:59
    sense to human we're going to more
  • 00:08:02
    likely than not there may have been
  • 00:08:03
    something going on upstairs that'd be
  • 00:08:04
    the normal assumption I would think
  • 00:08:06
    right as a bystander I wouldn't run with
  • 00:08:09
    it but I got ran with now what do you do
  • 00:08:12
    Sean's gonna have to come out and say
  • 00:08:13
    hey we made a mistake here the SRS
  • 00:08:16
    program and uh this guy do I blame him
  • 00:08:20
    no not really he's just a dude seems
  • 00:08:23
    like but you would think that all the
  • 00:08:25
    PTSD you hear about guys offer
  • 00:08:27
    themselves you think that naturally
  • 00:08:29
    before rush into
  • 00:08:31
    judgment I don't think like
  • 00:08:35
    what's Ryan MC Beth anybody's lying here
  • 00:08:38
    I think they all have good intentions I
  • 00:08:40
    do think about anti-gravity drones you
  • 00:08:42
    got to go if I've been doing too much of
  • 00:08:44
    the wacky too much IBU gain too much of
  • 00:08:46
    the toad am I not thinking clearly you
  • 00:08:49
    know let me know what you think my
  • 00:08:50
    opinion is somebody jumped the gun on
  • 00:08:53
    this topic on this reporting no one was
  • 00:08:55
    doing it to be mean or vengeful or lie
  • 00:08:58
    it does seem like the obvious thing
  • 00:09:00
    first choice would be hey maybe the guy
  • 00:09:01
    had a screw loose God bless him I'm not
  • 00:09:04
    giving him a pass by blowing the truck
  • 00:09:06
