FBI Sniper vs unarmed woman with an infant in her arms
And to think, Waco happened AFTER that.
Listened to every word, even the potty ones. It was so good to hear what went on after 9/11, I wasn’t about to cut out. This interview has personal meaning for me and where I ended up, and whether or not to write about it. Please have Chris on again, and soon. He may think he’s a “moron” and much is ancient history, but there is a reason why his story still resonates.
lol the potty ones what are you 12
Nope, but it appears you might be. Don't be that guy
Another great one. It’s all ways the hunting accidents, love the after hrt work and stories
love him until he talks about his media career
“He was in charge of the Kennedy assassination… investigation.” 🤣
He should be charged with treason. This guy was at both Waco and Ruby Ridge, he’s a baby killer.
When you interviewing Lon Horiuchi?
Should be in prison.
“Gonna have to cut me off cuz I’m gonna have another scotch and this whole things gonna go south” proceeds to talk for 2 more hours 😂
Never knew Johnny Knoxsville was such a badass
When the Constitution is in your way, call HRT
yeah fuck this guy. He was on Cleared Hot, Andy called him out for being a douche nd putting his kids in harms way down in South America😄.
Real
I am surprised he receives praise. I don't believe him that he saw a 50-caliber barrel sticking out a window or that he saw David Koresh. I see a cowboy with a huge and fragile ego. The photo he had someone take of him after the place was burned down is disgusting and should NEVER be done. Look at ME, me, me.... It's all about Chris if you ask Chris.
@@patriciasoule8131 🎻
Is this guy in the same group of friends asLon Horachi?
That was my first thought as well
Was no hunting accident, that was a hit I bet
Makes me wonder what Cheney was trying to cover up.
You're both mind-numbingly ignorant to suggest that with no evidence. You're the sorts of people that would believe the sky was stolen if I covered your eyes.
Hi Chris, we met during the Waco civil trial detail in summer 2000 . Not sure if you remember, but the AUSA had a 14 year old niece who put on a concert for all the group one weekend at the hotel conference room, she was just starting out singing and her name was Miranda Lambert! We didn’t realize at the time that she would go on to be famous. At the time she was just a church sings type singer. I just finally retired a year ago.
Oh yeah Waco. That was when the government shit all over the Constitution and massacred a bunch of women and children, right?
3:10:24 Does anyone have any more information on this part of the interview regarding FEMA, Continuity of Government, and why we suddenly don't worry about Nuclear Powers? He mentioned that he unpacked the issue publicly once and faced consequences. Does anyone know when this was and if it is still available?
Reading between the lines in this entire section lines up with theories I have heard regarding Deep Underground Military Bases and Breakaway Civilizations. The feeling I get from what he says is that a group of read-in individuals could already know of an unavoidable catastrophic event and are already operating the "Continued Government" in these secret hollowed out mountains while the current "visible" Government just plays out the show for a doomed populous that they have no intention of saving.
I'd love to hear other interpretations of what he is stepping around here.
I’m really hoping they have him back on to expand on that topic!
With the current state of the internet being what it is It's harder to trudge up information on this. Back in the day, the old school more rational Alex Jones had a bunch of stuff on this topic. Detailed with foia'd documents and everything. Most of it was piecemeal and the narrative was drawn from speculation on the totality of information. You could start by looking at REX-84, national security and homeland security presidential directive 51, presidential decision directive 67 and Eisenhowers COG plan. Each administration over the last 60 years has slowly established the infrastructure to run government without our current democratic process.
I'm only three hours in, but man, what a brilliant session. Dude's sharp as a tack.
1:42:12 I know that nobody can know everything about every subject, but I was nevertheless shocked that the interviewer did not already know about what happened to John Patrick O’Neill (1952-2001). I know that some important members of the Northern Alliance had known him personally for some time and were devastated when they heard he had been killed. They spoke of him very respectfully as "Yaḥyā Ror," which means "Brother John" in Pashto. It might seem strange, but in fact, that is not an unusual name, for after all, the Qur’an extensively mentions Yaḥyā ibn Zakariyā (John the Baptist) as a Prophet of God.
HRT guys are basically required to hv Devgru/ CAG level precision in executing ops, plus they hv legal liabilities when kill/ harm the wrong people despite of the circumstances whereas the military considers such occurences as collateral
FTFBI!!
This guy retired at 41?!
Totally outstanding interview! Tell Whitcomb to stop apologizing for sharing his awesome life stories or going so long.
Really look forward to watching part 2 as soon as possible and I hope part 2 goes just as long.
Whitcomb is a fascinating truth teller and patriotic American and national treasure!
That's why he got the tap on the shoulder. Uncle Sam wanted to shut him up!!!
Back in 1982, Chris Whitcomb was a damn loose cannon. It's nice to know he has settled down in his middle years.
If only these guys invested a little in sound quality. I'd be able to make it through
Good stuff as always guys!
Chris is great patriot, but he is oblivious to a few things. Just about all your guests have a messages and lessons which are backed up by stories. He's just detatched from the reality of the people he put in unnecessary danger because he thought it was cool, and likes to say he was nuts, in a adrenaline junkie way. Ask his former teammates, and they'll laugh and say, he sure likes to talk about himself. No one cares that he showed up to dinner with Madonna, or Brad Pitt. Great interview though.
No surgeon can remove the stick in your butt. You're gonna have to do it yourself.
Algorithm.
I wanna drink some scotch… I have a great bottle of Habu sake I’d like to send ya boys.
Holy Okinawa batman.... I remember (debatable) giving that stuff a go in Naha. Million years ago...
Why I kept getting gay shit when typing HRT
Please have the follow-up interview soon.
Can someone put timestamps or tell me where he talks about training?
No ...but you can watch the podcast??
Another great podcast gentleman! Love this man’s story’s! Please have him back on. I know there’s a lot more to his life! Cheers🍻
I wish the guy would get to the point 😮
I don't believe he can. IMHO, his stock answer to any question regarding Waco or Ruby Ridge is to praise all first responders in general and current F.B.I. HRT members in particular. Even after proudly declaring how his childhood town was C.I.A. controlled, the death of a whistleblower against the JFK conspiracy was just a "tragic hunting accident". I'm not saying he's being untruthful, just not, imho, candid.
He got to the point, read between the lines
@@artemisia2002us Yeah, a bit of a strange interview.
Couldn’t tell if he was full of shit. Certainly loves himself. Porsche 911 ok buddy
@@jrkoosh yeah, I got that vibe. Interesting life though.
HRT = Hostage Roasting Team...
Loool he talks about "the remarkable performance of HRT", don't think they have ever fired a round in a life gun fight or engaged & neutralized a target in a live firefight since 1993 , m sure they r very well trained, but just under utilized
I’m having a hard time feeling anything but disdain for former and current employees of the FBI. I’ll skip this one.
no one cares dude
Definitely hate current Feds
FBI HRT? Those are the guys the executed that 80 year old boomer in his walker the other day for posting memes about Biden right? Real tough guys, a tier one unit!
@@rwik123 I'd argue he has a point. Don't deep throat the whole boot.
This was sweet
legit, he's not full of shit
You're right. I can personally say he's definitely not full of shit.
Please have Chris back to talk about Mount Weather!
Finnicum in Oregan was also criminal and murder by fbi
I believe Finnicum was shot by Oregon State Police after reaching for a pistol 3 times.
@@addisonesslinger3653 FBI were involved in the forced stop, and did fire at the truck, but I believe your correct. After reaching three times, (reaching for a pistol would have been an assumption) never removing anything other than an empty hand, thus 3 times reaching into his jacket. Finnicum was shot 3 times by Oregon State Police.

Then the FBI continued to fire at the truck with three occupants. ua-cam.com/video/eEswP_HSFV4/v-deo.html
I wish this was twice as long!
Very cool
I hope you guys have more FBI HRT or FBI agents/people on the show in the future. HRT has always fascinated me.
Y? Because they kill innocent Americans?
Cold Zero
One of the best get this guy back.
Great episode
The Turner Diaries predicted everything we're seeing today. Only thing it got wrong was the dates. It predicted it would happen in the 90s rather then thr 2020's.
No, it didn't.
@@ButtThuck Brilliant retort
Such as?
Oh my gosh!!! Was so excited to see that you have Christopher Whitcomb on your show! I read “Cold Zero” years ago, guessing in the early 2000’s, and have never forgotten it.
I have always wanted to tell Mr. Whitcomb that his book saved me when I took my CCDW test. Written test, no problem, but I had never owned or shot a gun in my life, and scared to death.
As each student took their shooting test and it came closer to my time, the more I shook. It didn’t help that I was using a .357 Ruger revolver, a cannon in my small hands.
When it came time for me, I loaded and aimed. 💥BOOM💥 I shrieked and almost threw the gun in the air. This old doctor, son of an FBI agent who had been given CCDW tests for decades, was not amused, and growled, “Do not do that again.”
I was going to blow this test and my $80 for the class, and my training buddies at Ft. Knox we’re going to laugh me off base. Yes, I trained troops, but had never shot a real gun before. (Long story)
Panicked, shaking, and heart thumping out of my chest, 3:26 3:26 I remembered Mr. Whitcomb’s book explaining how to slow down your heart rate.
I dropped my arms to my side, closed my eyes, inhaled a deep breath, and slowly exhaled through my mouth, concentrating on SLOWING down my pounding heart. Slowly, I did this five times, opened my eyes, raised my arms, sited the target, and the rest of the shots were center mass.
As I stopped to reload, I glanced at the instructor. Ol’ Doc Kincaid was slack-jawed, and said, “Nice shootin’ Tex, where’d you learn to do that?” I told him I read a sniper book. After about 24 shots, 23 center mass, I passed the test. The first shot was almost off the paper, so the breathing technique worked!
I gave a copy of “Cold Zero” to my martial arts instructor, a homicide detective who trained me how to train troops. Great book! I’ve often wondered what happened to the author, so now I’m going to listen to the rest of this show to find out!
This guy is a baby killer.
Chris is so humble its nuts. I cant wait to hear him again. He has the most insane stories post 9/11. I wish we could hear on other HRT stuff he may have done besides Waco and Ruby Ridge or the selection process. Well his book described a lot of it but any more tidbits would be cool to hear.
I'm sorry...but what possible "war stories," would an HRT operator actually have.
Maybe give it a listen first before dropping a low IQ comment
I totally agree
Possibly watching children burn alive I'd guess
Bunch of sissies no respect for the fbi
Shooting whites senior citizens and who ever else the liberals tell them too
