00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:30.640
It is time believe your worries outside and come laugh
2
00:00:30.679 --> 00:00:34.079
with us inside the Treehouse. I'm Daniel Maley along with
3
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:43.640
Trey Trendholm and Raj Sharma on Thursday, November seven, twenty
4
00:00:43.759 --> 00:00:50.159
twenty four. I've been contemplating firing up a new game
5
00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:53.159
slash new feature here inside the Treehouse, and I think
6
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:58.920
I've found the perfect story in which to launch our
7
00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:14.000
new feature. Don't leave us hanging, No, definitely not. Do
8
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:20.439
not underestimate these voters. Okay, this is a I'm just
9
00:01:20.519 --> 00:01:22.359
kind of winging it here, so bear with me. Here
10
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:28.480
here is the first time, the first edition of Believe
11
00:01:28.519 --> 00:01:37.120
It or Not Inside the Treehouse. I am going to
12
00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:43.879
give you, guys a news story or a survey, some
13
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:47.920
type of piece of information, and you have to decide
14
00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:49.000
if you believe.
15
00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:49.000
It or not.
16
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:52.519
Who okay?
17
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:56.560
All right? Are you ready for your very first Believe
18
00:01:56.599 --> 00:02:07.760
It or Not? I am okay. The Amish. The Amish
19
00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:11.199
turned out for the Pennsylvania vote in the twenty twenty
20
00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:17.479
four presidential election in unprecedented numbers and contributed to Donald
21
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:20.879
Trump's victory, leading to him being the forty seventh president
22
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:28.520
of the United States. The Amish turned out in unprecedented
23
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:30.800
numbers in the state of Pennsylvania to help Donald Trump
24
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:35.000
secure not only the state's electoral votes but also the
25
00:02:35.039 --> 00:02:39.719
nomination for President of the United States. Believe it or not,
26
00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:43.000
Let's go with h Rise. Let's start with you, sir.
27
00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:43.759
You believe it.
28
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:48.000
Believe it one hundred percent. Believe it.
29
00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:52.680
Trey, No, I don't believe it.
30
00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:56.240
Clearly, I haven't thought this all the way through because
31
00:02:56.280 --> 00:02:58.080
one of you is right and one of you is wrong.
32
00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:03.919
So let's start with this, Trey. I am unfortunately I
33
00:03:03.960 --> 00:03:06.080
have to share with you. But that didn't work. Hang on,
34
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:12.080
it's not working. My thing didn't work. Oh that worked.
35
00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:17.199
That works. That does not work for some reason. All right,
36
00:03:17.240 --> 00:03:19.840
hang on, I've got to back up. Not that it
37
00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:21.680
really matters that much, but I'm gonna do it anyway
38
00:03:21.719 --> 00:03:27.960
for the sake of, you know, consistency. Sorry, Trey, Okay,
39
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:31.879
it's a little rusty, but it's the first time. We're
40
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:36.719
gonna get there eventually. That would actually make you rajah correct.
41
00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:41.319
The Amish did, in fact turn out in unprecedented numbers
42
00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:44.199
in their horse and buggies to the voting polls in
43
00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:47.919
the state of Pennsylvania to help Donald Trump secure the
44
00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:52.840
forty seventh presidency of the United States. Yes, I told
45
00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:56.159
you you can't. You know what we don't. We don't
46
00:03:56.199 --> 00:03:58.800
get political inside the treehouse very often. But by god,
47
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:04.840
if when big comes for your unpasteurized raw milk, by God,
48
00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:07.719
the Omish, you're gonna revolt huge.
49
00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:10.800
No, I'm not making that up.
50
00:04:10.840 --> 00:04:11.680
That's the reason.
51
00:04:12.120 --> 00:04:19.199
Yes, I I. I was watching the CNN and they
52
00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:23.600
had the Trump surrogate for Pennsylvania and I tried not
53
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:26.720
to laugh out loud when he, with a straight face,
54
00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:30.399
was like, yeah, they're going for like Philadelphia, they're going
55
00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:33.800
for Pittsburgh. The Harris campaign, they're going for those guys.
56
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:37.560
We are actively targeting the Amish. And I busted out laughing,
57
00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:43.519
and I was like, well, they don't use electronics. And
58
00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:49.959
so they promised them paper ballots and uh, that they
59
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.959
could bring there, that they would have parking, ample parking
60
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:57.839
for their horse and carriages. And based on that promise, uh,
61
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:00.120
they pulled up in record numbers. And if do you
62
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:03.120
want anybody voting for you, it's the people that don't
63
00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:06.600
use contraception of any kind and have all you know,
64
00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:09.639
have all nineteen kids voting for the same guy in
65
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:11.160
each family. That's who you want.
66
00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:13.879
It really is. I mean, if you think about it, Look,
67
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:18.160
we can dig we could dig in deep into presidential
68
00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:21.360
politics and what happens if you ignore a certain segment
69
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:23.839
of the population. But I don't think we need to
70
00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:25.639
do a huge deep dive on this one because it's
71
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:31.319
pretty obvious if if you court them, they may vote
72
00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:35.120
for you. But it especially helps if the previous administration
73
00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:40.680
comes for their raw milk. Yes, Republicans saw boost in
74
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:45.879
Pennsylvania from a demographic rarely seen at the polls. The Amish,
75
00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:51.040
the states famed Pennsylvania Dutch, registered to vote in unprecedented
76
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:54.160
numbers in response to a January federal raid on a
77
00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:58.639
local raw milk farm in bird in Hand, Pennsylvania. The
78
00:05:58.680 --> 00:06:04.439
Pennsylvania Department of Actriculture stormed Amos Miller's farm on January
79
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:08.000
fourth after reports of illnesses and children linked to raw
80
00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:15.160
dairy products purchased there. The Amish community saw the move
81
00:06:15.199 --> 00:06:17.720
as an overzealous reach by the government and was planning
82
00:06:17.720 --> 00:06:20.879
to vote for GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump, whose party
83
00:06:20.920 --> 00:06:25.879
favors less government intervention. According to a source of the
84
00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:29.439
local Amish voters, that was the impetus for them to say,
85
00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:33.199
we need to participate. This is about neighbors helping neighbors.
86
00:06:33.839 --> 00:06:37.720
The Amish rallied around Farmer Miller, who cited his religious
87
00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:41.839
beliefs as a reason for not adhering to FDA guidelines.
88
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:48.319
Actual numbers of Amish voters were unclear, though horse and
89
00:06:48.360 --> 00:06:52.040
buggy rigs were seen at polling locations and photographs from
90
00:06:52.079 --> 00:06:55.319
the region. So I think there's a lesson to be
91
00:06:55.399 --> 00:06:58.279
learned here in politics, which his no stone left.
92
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:02.560
Unturned, No, no, no butter left unturned.
93
00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:07.120
You want to turn out the vote or do you
94
00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:12.839
want to churn out the vote? I can't tell that
95
00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:15.000
that's funny or terrible, but I'm gonna get whatever. I'm
96
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:15.720
just gonna go with it.

Dan, That's something that we talked about for a while now,
111
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:11.360
and we decided to go ahead and just pull the
112
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:14.720
trigger on it. We've had excellent reviews, we've had excellent referrals.

Back it up.
118
00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:28.480
When I was growing up and I told somebody who's
119
00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:30.959
gonna kick their ass, you got to back it up. Well,
120
00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:33.000
now that I'm a grown man and we're doing professional
121
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:35.080
services on people's homes and I tell them that they're
122
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:37.720

we he darted. With the Amish turning out at unprecedented
147
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:09.120
numbers in the twenty twenty four presidential election. The closest
148
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:12.519
I can get to a segue on this is the
149
00:10:12.679 --> 00:10:15.799
Amish certainly know how to co opt things, right, the
150
00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:19.519
whole socialist living thing, communism and type stuff, because they
151
00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:22.080
all kind of pull their resources together live as one community.
152
00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:25.080
Well there's across the pond, as they say, there was
153
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:31.039
an english Man who tried doing something similar with drugs.
154
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:40.639
So look, entrepreneurialship is very hard, right, Starting and running
155
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:45.480
your own business is time consuming, it's life consuming, it's
156
00:10:45.559 --> 00:10:48.840
life altering, and if you want it to be successful,
157
00:10:49.080 --> 00:10:51.759
you've got to go the extra mile. Well, sometimes you
158
00:10:51.879 --> 00:10:54.720
just don't have a good business, maybe you don't have
159
00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:57.000
a good plan, or maybe you just suck as an
160
00:10:57.159 --> 00:11:00.440
entrepreneur in that particular industry. So what do you do?
161
00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:05.000
You pivot? Well that's what that's what this man did.
162
00:11:05.519 --> 00:11:11.320
Across the pond. John Pritchard turned to brokering wholesale drug
163
00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:16.399
deals as his financial woes mounted during covid H. He
164
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:20.200
took extreme measures because his business began to fail and well,
165
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:23.320
you know you gotta do what you gotta do to
166
00:11:23.360 --> 00:11:27.639
make ends meet, right, So what he did was he
167
00:11:27.720 --> 00:11:30.480
found himself in a chat room on a platform called
168
00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:37.480
incro chat, and he used the handle Lofty Cliff in
169
00:11:37.559 --> 00:11:41.960
order to trade in kilogram quantities of cocaine and cannabis.
170
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:47.159
Plots to smuggle shipments into the UK from Holland were
171
00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:51.000
also muted as he and his close allies formed a
172
00:11:51.039 --> 00:11:53.399
cooperative drug supply chain.
173
00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:56.919
Isn't it just called a cartel.
174
00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:02.000
In the States, it would be sort of a cartel, okay,
175
00:12:02.200 --> 00:12:06.159
But here in the UK, I guess they they thought
176
00:12:06.200 --> 00:12:08.960
it fell short of cartel since it was just limited
177
00:12:08.960 --> 00:12:12.240
to chat rooms. They thought, no, it just sounds more
178
00:12:12.279 --> 00:12:14.240
like a co op because I feel like a cartel,
179
00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:18.879
you have to reach a certain number of members, right, Yeah.
180
00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:21.440
I don't know what that. I don't know what membership is.
181
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:24.919
You know, well, there was you know, like the Sineloa cartel,
182
00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:28.039
which was kind of a conglomerate of different families versus
183
00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:30.200
you know some that I just have one.
184
00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:34.200
Yeah, gotcha. Okay, Well, what.
185
00:12:34.480 --> 00:12:39.679
You're describing tray is just a corporation. So I guess,
186
00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:41.720
I guess those are your three levels. Your your base
187
00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:43.960
level when you're working with a group is co op.
188
00:12:44.039 --> 00:12:47.080
So it's cooperative. Then if you rise to a certain level,
189
00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:50.519
then you're a cartel. But then if you rise above cartel,
190
00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:51.720
then you're just a corporation.
191
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:53.559
Yeah.
192
00:12:53.639 --> 00:13:03.440
Coke ink I like it exists. Oh but that's what
193
00:13:03.559 --> 00:13:08.759
happened in Liverpool Crown Court last week. Messages revealed when
194
00:13:08.759 --> 00:13:12.399
the network was infiltrated by French police during twenty twenty.
195
00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:16.360
It showed Pritchard's involvement in arranging the supply of one
196
00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:19.159
and a half kilograms of cocaine and at least fifteen
197
00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:23.000
kilos of cannabis. Again, keep in mind his handle that
198
00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:26.279
he used is lofty Cliff.
199
00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:31.720
This it's a brit infiltrated by the French. I mean
200
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:35.519
this with lofty Cliff. This sounds like a Monty Python sketch.
201
00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:43.120
But wait, there's more of you. The forty six year
202
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:46.039
old Pritchard, again who went by the name lofty Cliff,
203
00:13:47.240 --> 00:13:50.080
was also said to have agreed to a source or
204
00:13:50.200 --> 00:13:53.440
I'm sorry, was also said to have agreed to source
205
00:13:53.559 --> 00:13:56.240
a further five kilos of Class A drugs, although it
206
00:13:56.279 --> 00:13:59.759
was unclear from his communications whether this transaction was with
207
00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:05.000
Red Leader. Another handle was in fact completed. So if
208
00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:08.080
you're following on the chat room handle, so far we
209
00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:16.000
have lofty Cliff and Red Leader, right all right, Jamie
210
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:22.240
Baxter who very much a Star Wars fan. Jamie Baxter,
211
00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:25.679
the prosecutor described lofty Cliff as effectively running around for
212
00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:29.600
the supply of illicit substances with contacts known only in
213
00:14:29.720 --> 00:14:36.679
the chat rooms as Ginger Jaw, Destructive Tailor, and Motocross Yeah,
214
00:14:36.879 --> 00:14:39.799
all said to be equal partners in the operation. However,
215
00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:43.000
their conversations also revealed issues with the quality of the
216
00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:46.320
weed that they were supplying, with one customer complaining that
217
00:14:46.399 --> 00:14:49.759
a sample of their drugs was not California strain and
218
00:14:49.879 --> 00:14:53.200
instead appeared to be Spanish grown haze worth a fraction
219
00:14:53.279 --> 00:14:53.720
of the praise.
220
00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:58.480
M Yeah, I mean quality control is not a a
221
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:00.240
position they filled. I'm guessing now.
222
00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:05.679
Although a chat with Snowy Orchid revealed a transaction for
223
00:15:05.799 --> 00:15:10.240
one kilogram taking place during a COVID lockdown, Prettier, again
224
00:15:10.399 --> 00:15:13.000
known as lofty Cliff, was also said to have discussed
225
00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:16.039
the importation of cocaine from the Netherlands with his fellow
226
00:15:16.080 --> 00:15:17.279
co conspirators.
227
00:15:17.679 --> 00:15:24.000
Please tell me Snowy Orchid was buying coke because I
228
00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:24.720
think you have to.
229
00:15:25.080 --> 00:15:27.360
Yeah, that's what that name you have to be. You
230
00:15:27.480 --> 00:15:28.320
have to be buying coke.
231
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:31.080
They didn't know what the other Class A drugs were,
232
00:15:31.159 --> 00:15:39.799
but China White sixty nine Dragon Chaser fifty four.
233
00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:43.159
Uh, cheach is my hero.
234
00:15:47.159 --> 00:15:48.080
It was actually cheap.
235
00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:51.039
