Alex Jones Exposes Texas Land Grabs & Kirk Mitchell SOS Board Member Interview [P8DiqydBY1Y]

00:00 Loving Kirk Mitchell. He's loving the children and he's been very honest with us tonight again We want to thank you It is always a pleasure it really is Again, there's your SOS board members absolutely Pay for the privilege. It's fun do me a favor say hi to David Rockefeller I don't think if I ever see him over keep working this hard getting the property and consolidating it Believe me, you're gonna get to meet with one of them. You'll be groveling at my feet is that what you're saying? Oh God it's a funny idea but it's not going to happen so... Well I mean this is such a preposterous idea. Did you see Clinton at the CFR meeting televised four weeks ago he said thank you to every Rockefeller

00:50 National television? I don't even know what CFR is. What are you talking about? Maybe, maybe I'm misjudging...maybe I should apologize You don't even know who the Council on Foreign Relations is That's who runs the entire country Now it's time to get serious Okay well that's your bailiwick I'm watching out for local stuff You're watching out for the local property Well I mean I am a citizen activist Taking care of the children Trying to do things that are good for the community for the children? Well, I don't play demagogue games with children or family. All that BS you hear all the time. I just don't do it because i think its repugnant Any comments from you sir? You gotta be joking

01:45 I love Mike Hanson Archives. We were just at the Travis County Court building where over 150 citizens spoke out against new septic laws, where now you want to get a new septic or have your old one repaired you have to get a special permit or they'll put a lien on your house and it was funny Kirk Mitchell son of the multi, multi, multimillionaire that owns Mitchell Energy in Houston and owns Palatial Golf Courses and you name it. He's on SOS on the board and wants to help you with your property as we walked out he saw that he is right around the corner here so let's go talk to him Mr. Mitchell loving one! It's good to meet ya Alex Jones

02:44 So let me get this straight your family owns big golf courses and and Mitchell energy, but you're here to help us Depress the property value with prop 2 back in May and then turn around and sell it when the mayor promised he never sell a single acre build a single solitary shack And now you figured out a pretty good business haven't you you and your family getting into getting into people's property with city money No, that's not what I'm doing. Are you running for officer? I was, yeah. I withdrew You withdrew? Why? Felt like it Free country Free what? It's a free country. Yeah, if we can keep the citizens in charge we'll still be free That's why Prop 2 is such a great deal We had a big huge turnout election and a lot of people voted for it and that's great What about crony capitalism? What about making your fortune on big government contracts? I'm opposed to it You're opposed to it

03:46 Aren't you your father didn't get? 600 something million off the government for the woodlands in Houston. I don't think that's the amount he In about the 1960s, there was a program under Housing and Urban Development. Oh so that was a government contract? Quite lucrative! Well I mean here's the deal... So you're following in your father's footsteps? He lost money on this business. Oh he did?! Mitchell Energy? The way the way he made a lot of money if you want to know and you seem to care something I do seem to care about people like the Rockefellers

04:24 The old money that that run the nature Conservancy and the Sierra Club it set up front groups like SOS false grassroots organization Yes, you most certainly are well That's who got the standard real estate fees with Sierra club at Nature Conservancy Are you are you denying that? You're on the board of SOS. Are you denying the facts? We're gonna put the documents on television I just put them up. I'll read them if you put them up, but I don't even know what your talking about so... You're on the board of SOS? I sure am yeah proud of it Now your saying that Bridget Shea and Bill Bunche and all the rest of environmentalist lawyers, so called environmentalists lawyers Your telling me Mr Mitchell right here today

05:04 that it's a good deal, that they depress the value of that land in Southwest. Yes they most certainly did I'll be glad to buy each acre for $1 if they sell it but they won't because we just improved the values of people who are on the edge of that The mayor said they weren't going to sell one single acre you're lying again is that all y'all do? You cover up lies with lies He did on the radio, I had debated him. He said it on television that's not true! Everybody remembers the lie. You're gonna tell all the citizens you're lying to them? They all remember... I'm not telling the citizens i'm lying to them. I don't understand what you're talking about. Kirk Mitchell why did you withdraw from the race just

05:41 felt like it pre-country felt like fellow withdrawing i'd on i did some policy vehicle waste gas yet does a much cellular but no i sure don't mind people even waste more gas yeah it's a little too visible to thirsty and i'm gonna sell it and i'm really not happy with your tired of hurting mother earth we should give this to the needy children No, no. Are you one? No I'm not needy and see I want to make my money from the free market not from sucking off the trough even though people like Ross Perot and others do Well, I'm opposed to crony capitalism. Do you want me to go into it in detail? You want me to tell you like...go in the three hour debate about it or something? Yeah but..I don't want to....I am no crony capitalist myself and I do not believe in it Just like SOS and the county and city were going to sell a single acre of Prop 2 land past May 65 million How come the lands costing more than they thought? They only bought 30% of the land but used 55% of money Probably because by doing the right thing trying to protect environment we are raising values at very fast rate

06:42 after they were depressed by limiting... Would you pay more to live next to an open sewer or a pristine waterway? Which would you pay more for, just you. An open sewer... He's got a septic tank he lives on the property this is a sixth generation Austinite right here my cameraman his house is beautiful with flowers you name it It's a nice place its his property he doesn't need lanes on his home This is Capitol View Drive where I raised my family for 20 years. I found this two and a half acres out here in 1985, and i paid $16 000 to put a trailer house out here on Capitol View Drive and then I built the house later... And this was always a dead end right here now you would have to come this way off of Olarkard Highway

07:44 You've got to come down William Cannon to Bluff Springs and then come around whole Lockhart Highway down to this dead end. Now what they've done is they opened it all up to town, see that's downtown right there This is why they call it Capitol View Drive. You used to be able to see the capitol from here and you can barely see with all the smog downtown That is Slaughter Lane, The New Slaughter Lane They did not have Slaughter Lane east of I-35 when I was living out her in the 1980's

08:28 And now they got this new portion of Capital View Drive going north to Slaughter Lane, which I'm very impressed. I never thought that in my lifetime, this road opened up to town. I mean literally we were five miles out of the way, you had to go five miles out of the way now You can just come from i-35 right here to Slaughter Lane and get on Capitol View and go right down where I used to live This is a real tight knit community now it's going to be opened up kind of to the world

09:19 Still have a lot of good friends that live on this street. And I understand, you know, I paid $16,000 for my two and half acres. I understand that some of the lots here are selling for four and five hundred thousand dollars. So I guess we're getting ready to see them kick all the poor people out of here All righty, I'm in Hanson. Well Austin is moving This is literally 12 miles southeast of Austin and it's all these houses...I guess they're getting ready to build houses all around here They've already built houses all around our...they're building houses over here all the way to Onion Creek

10:17 And you can see they got a bunch of stuff built up, up on slaughter in Glove Springs already. All that stuff was not there when I was raising my kids. Actually none of this stuff is right here. This was so... We thought we were real good peace out of town back then Little did we know we were gonna be right opened up to the world More fines and fees and regulations. I mean, where is SOS? It was 95 to 5 in there tonight you had no support except for Environmental lawyers of people that went on the big fat titty You know We do this without getting paid for it

11:02 Oh really? Nature Conservancy, Sierra Club didn't get that big lucrative 3.9 million? Whatever they're doing is not clear to me here's what I do Y'all just lobby What about Save Our Forest and Save our... There are these front groups for the front groups everywhere Well maybe you're not sophisticated enough to understand fraud No I'm not sophisticated enough to understand what your talking about Here's what i do know You're not sophisticated enough to know the city shouldn't be buying property and say their not going to sell it And then turn around and selling its going on nationwide What's the question? I'm stating to you. I want you to refute it to me Will you go away if i refute it? I mean, yeah, I'll do whatever you want. I don't give a damn You're wrecking Austin

10:17 And you can see they got a bunch of stuff built up, up on slaughter in Glove Springs already. All that stuff was not there when I was raising my kids. Actually none of this stuff is right here. This was so... We thought we were real good peace out of town back then Little did we know we were gonna be right opened up to the world More fines and fees and regulations. I mean, where is SOS? It was 95 to 5 in there tonight you had no support except for Environmental lawyers of people that went on the big fat titty You know We do this without getting paid for it

11:02 Oh really? Nature Conservancy, Sierra Club didn't get that big lucrative 3.9 million? Whatever they're doing is not clear to me here's what I do Y'all just lobby What about Save Our Forest and Save our... There are these front groups for the front groups everywhere Well maybe you're not sophisticated enough to understand fraud No I'm not sophisticated enough to understand what your talking about Here's what i do know You're not sophisticated enough to know the city shouldn't be buying property and say their not going to sell it And then turn around and selling its going on nationwide What's the question? I'm stating to you. I want you to refute it to me Will you go away if i refute it? I mean, yeah, I'll do whatever you want. I don't give a damn You're wrecking Austin

11:48 You're wrecking Austin. Well, you know if I had a taxpayer subsidized apartment and put my ridiculous ideas out... Number one you've shown your ignorance! I'm on 6 AM's 1 FM and yes I did start out four years ago in Access TV because i realize it is a good venue for and it's not taxpayer supported, you don't know what you're talking about. I am against the monopoly that Cablevision got 25 years ago for the right-of-ways worth tens of millions a year! Now if it costs you 32 cents a month on your cable bill that's a service, the city controls the money If it was a free market we'd have eight cable systems and I would be on every single one of them. Alex, you know what? I'm in agreement with that. Let me tell you something else... I just got a call from California. You're kidding! I'll probably working with Joshua Films. The Clinton Chronicles, the MENA cover-up, Million Sol Levesque. So, no, no, no.

12:44 No, no. You're telling me that I'm just some little taxpayer-supported punk on AXS TV when AXS TV is not taxpayer supported! Austin Cablevision bought by Time Warner is... Because you're wrong every step of the way Your information's false and that's proven Well it's pretty ridiculous to come stick a pen in my face It's a public street Well, it's just... I mean, you're loving. You're not hurting anybody. Well, I'm not running away because I'm not scared of you. I don't want you to be scared of me! I want the information from you sir. What do you wanna know? I mean, you haven't asked anything without telling all your own... Because all you do is spout lies or you must be angry. Then don't ask me. No, I wanna show the people. Okay what you wanna do is ask me an unanswered question

13:30 And I'm a pretty polite guy, so... Well, what I don't... They're real sweet on TV kissing those kids aren't they? And all the kids out here. So you... I'm not here to do a Bush commercial you know! I don't care what you say about Bush Wait a minute so.. I don't know what to say. You just hop up and down. You love it that they had kids out here with signs saying vote for the Vons for the children yesterday Up and down the street. That's fine with me. Little kids at school. No no schools are getting them out and bringing them down here. What do ya think of that then

14:17 peddling kids, prostituting kids. We took field trips when I was in school and some of the best things I learned were taking field trips. Field trips to run around with signs and jump up and down on the street corner right down the street here Well you know maybe they'll grow up to be like you They'll be activists I don't think that's a bad thing. I mean, I think your ideas are crazy but you know... What are my ideas? Power corrupts? Absolute power corrupts absolutely! Why do you want to consolidate so much power in the hands of few? To take good care of us just like Stalin did? I'm trying to actually see this... You have political aspirations, don't you? I'm trying to see that people... You have political aspirations. You've even run but you withdrew Yeah That's right Yeah, I mean, I've gotten involved in politics because that's where a lot of the major citizens get involved Why did you withdraw? I really want to know

15:05 I didn't feel like doing it. There's too many non-governmental organizations that have governmental power to buy your way into. You said it costs $2,000 a year to be on the SOS board. Are you enjoying the power you're wielding now? Over all these people lives and property values are ruining. The people who bought land where SOS has gone through 20 years ago can't retire All these people, you know... There's a hundred cases of it. If they would offer their land at the value they bought it at plus some return that is above inflation and just say to the world You've ruined my property values here's my land back at the price I paid

15:46 Adjust it for inflation plus 2% you'd get a flood of offers. Yeah, but you're not getting that they depress the value now Wait a minute earlier You said earlier you said they didn't now your green they did ah well I'm not actually agree to do it I think your foolish shit about that. You know I don't believe it I say the reason that Prop two land may actually cost us more to buy is because It's very valuable and the more The closer it gets to preserved land, the more valuable it is. Lawyers have gotten a big percentage of it and they did depress the value. If you had a choice, would you rather live surrounded by preserved land or surrounded by houses? Most people would and they pay more for it. Exactly! You found out the key. Don't let this riff-raff move into there. We'll build these

16:29 We'll build these palatial homes for the elite just south of Westlake Hills. So you're securing that for the ultra-rich to move in? Like your dad? Well, Alex, you can't have it both ways. Either the value went up or down and preserves tend to make their values... You depressed the value so y'all could go in and buy more of it and now you're jacking the price up! That's what I'm saying. You ruin people that own property down there, you force them to sell... I don't think they're ruined. Real estate is a risky business. I develop property myself and I... You're on SOS but you develop property? Do developers are involved with SOS? We have several. Yeah! You're the biggest developers in town aren't ya?!

17:06 The city! The city's taken over more... No, I mean the whole consortium. The city more and more. Doesn't the city have its own testing center that...? This is gonna be fun. I can't wait to see this on TV. It'll be fun. It's like Canon Camera. Yeah exactly. It does it's stupider but it's funnier. Exactly doesn't the city Doesn't the city have some of its own testing centers that compete with the free market down here? You know, where they test your water and things. Oh no do they? Oh yes! Man you were going to run for political office and you don't know any of this?! Well if government authorities have a need to protect public welfare health and safety... No but they're competing against the free market for services I mean there is no free market force that i know of thats got the responsibility in this state to uh... Love the children

17:50 No, to preserve... For our children? No. To regulate water quality where they're made. Not for our children?! Well I don't demagogue children you know it's not a... Oh you don't but SOS does! Well, hey you know maybe it's for your children. You send out these poor useful idiots out here? These poor people running around who believe in it to go door-to-door to collect money to get the fraud Ponzi scheme going? Once again you're talking about a different organization I think there is an organization out there that has got a canvas we don't have one. I mean if you keep on confusing us with someone else... Oh SOS doesn't have a canvas they don't send people door-to-door?! No! That's a flat lie. They've come to my door, sir! It's well known that SOS sends people out...that's ridiculous Well I don't know why they're wasting their time at your door. I mean- I didn't know about it. They just go door to door sir You didn't know about that either? No I didn't and one reason is- There we have it. Kirk Mitchell doesn't know much of anything Maybe he IS just a useful dude And you bet I'm aggressive because I'm sick and tired of this behavior Our country's being taken over by a bunch of corrupt garbage

18:45 There you go, just a laugh. Let them eat cake! I can't wait to see this on TV. I really hope you play the whole thing on TV. I don't think you'll be brave enough to play the whole thing though...I do have to get it pretty soon but if your gonna waste more of my time then go ahead Oh your time? Well its late ya know.. I see the aggression in your eyes sir at least im honest about mine. You're such a loving person The point is does your father own some golf courses? Yeah That's more pollution than my house is dealing with.

19:27 carte blanche with whatever he wants. I mean, no, i don't agree with that either if it's okay when your dad does because again it's okay what the extremely wealthy people want to do let me put this way if he came into this community where i have some little bit of involvement in local affairs where i try to help we've been here! We have been here you moved in here If he moved into this community and built a golf course that wasn't in line with our local standards. I think that was a mistake and i would be opposed to it. But is true again your father got some of his first cash yolo from government contracts? You know you don't know the thing about where my father made his money... You admitted earlier! The only government job he ever had was as a captain in the United States Army No, you just said we already got you earlier Oh switching story beautiful He never... See this? You see the twisting? You interrogate him awhile and get the lies Here's how he made his money

20:19 Because you care so much. He's probably set a world record in history drilling oil and gas wells like a lot of folks in Texas do. Yeah, that's how we made our money We're not running around trying to suck more off people either People want to run to little people like us! Yeah, like him Two and a half acres you want to just want to talk it to us Well, yeah Again we've been busy. What do you think? Okay again we might stop it we're just really even up the spot so about We've been visiting with

21:03 Kirk Mitchell and it's just been the normal standard operating procedure. I don't know, but Chorey is...I'm really tired, let me get all serious. Well again we've been visiting with Kirk Mitchell Limousine liberal, limousine socialist. Again socialism is a movement of the economic elite not of the Don Traddon masses and here we have it again for Mitchell Energy right here trying to get your property using your tax money. Oh he's looking at me! You can have your property. They're so good at that look at them they're so good okay there comes naturally yeah giving you something natural on camera will you pay to redo my septic tank?

21:49 I don't think it will. Probably if you're... No, no this is all part of the pressing land values Mike and strength. I'm not an expert on that. You can have a problem with 20 year old septic tank but they are going to make me replace them? I would have a problem with it if its polluting the water yeah. Has it polluted anything Alex? Number one we saw the state's own dye studies in fact we oughta ask about the states dye studies you saw them there tonight The water that goes into Barton's doesn't even come from the springs you've been discussing. It comes from a different area What do you say to the facts? Uh, the facts... I don't think you know much about the facts Oh no! You don't even know how city government works We've proven that Well- You don't even know- I know a lot about it but I mean- When the sun comes up in the morning Come on! I'm just not treating your questions as a very serious thing That's all Because it's not serious ruining people's lives

22:44 He's not seriously pressing land values, lying, getting the money buying the property turning around and selling it. Where is that pen? He doesn't care you see that? That's Kirk Mitchell ladies and gentlemen he doesn't care he surly laughs at you Eddie Haskell right there Alex I laugh at you but what do you expect your tactics are kind of funny You're a good stand up comic I mean, you know... Yeah. Francis Bacon did quite a bit! You just wait. See ya later. Have a good day. I don't know about him. He was a great testist. Yeah. You have fun. I will? There he is. Right here. Hey tell us it's for the children. Is SOS for the children? Uhh..I don't demagogue children. I do not do that family values BS. Oh really?! The Democrats don't?

23:32 Are you a Democrat, sir? No I'm not. Oh really what are you? I am an independent and if you paid attention you'd know that when i was running for office I was running as an independent neither a democrat nor republican or anything else And again Kirk Mitchell will not tell us the reasons he dropped out of the race Because I didn't feel like running anymore. There was, you know... It's like personal reasons! Something come up? Some information? In a free country you have access to the ballot if you go through the minimal standards of getting on the ballot and also the right to get off the ballots You're right. Don't have to explain everybody why you do it. So then it's kind of like no one is in business. I mean I wanted to help... Nobody's business?! Well, I mean, it would be a business If I wasn't... But it's not our business when Clinton sells missiles to Chinese military

24:17 You see what I'm talking about? You really ought to be in a stand-up comedy because it's just such a non sequitur. Oh yeah, it's very effective! Yeah so there is... See we're getting a lot of different pieces now going together real good Well yeah but I want you put the whole thing on and I want to challenge you do that oh no I'm a coward well I don't think you'd yeah I think you probably too chicken shit to put it all on I mean because exactly you know number one I'm very tired being sarcastic So, well you know... I'm just meeting you with your same name. You could stand to be a little more polite and not accost people in the middle of the conversation. I mean that's.. you know i'm not a public official if I was a public official it would be different How come your accosting people at their homes? At their homes with a septic tank! I haven't said anything rude to you sir All I want is for septic tanks to meet state standards and then some They do they do this standard you heard during the meeting And then some We'll get video oh and then some there we go When I catch him in line he did

25:11 Because I think we need high standards. We have a high standard in this community, we're not just... you know? We're elitist! We're limousine liberals! We can... we're concerned about the environment of this community. Who are you voting for in the governor's race? That's secret ballot, none your business He doesn't want us to know he's an independent but he doesn't want us to know Well, you know if I was a party person you could answer it for yourself But I'm not a party person so I'm gonna pick and choose and just figure out where the most cash is biggest government contract No The truth is we have a lot of we have a lot of second-rate choices And it's often the difficult choice as you know. I mean I do vote but I'm not often very satisfied Do you? Do you have a natural sense to get you like get down on the ground like kind of like a hound go right at the biggest government contract You

26:01 I'm not really hounding anything, no. No, I've never had a government contract in my life so... I don't really know how to get one And neither has your dad right? No He's not a contractor Wait a minute earlier you were telling us about this big 600-something million contract I'm a little confused Well i dont even know how big it was It happened in 1969 or 70 But you just told us your father didn't ever have a government contract Well, okay. He had a government loan I mean what's the problem? He paid it back early on time and below budget or whatever That's not the information we've been getting from our sources Well but your sources are wrong We'll have to have them on the program to check that out

26:43 No one's gonna care about what my family does. No, we need to know because I've been documenting for a long time who's behind this environmentalism This guy is low on the totem pole compared to some of the people pulling the strings and get your property That's what we're talking about Okay, well keep at it realize what I do I come around screw around with you then I get the information out Get your guard decks think no, let's see It's easy to give information on me Alex cuz I don't give a shit what you know, I mean it's all different thing Well, we got about 14 different things You've said sir Fine. Take it! But which one is the truth? Which one of the 14 different statements, please?! Just figure out for yourself I mean...I'm under no obligation to tell you- That's called sceptrophuge It's called being, y'know, disrespectful to an idiot and that's what i'm being Well again sir, very nice and I can feel the love The compassion when I first saw you tonight I just felt your love deep down inside That caring that you have for the public

27:43 how much care you have, the compassion just flows like an effervescent river I have to tell you. Thank you very much Alex, I really appreciate it You're such a swell guy! You need government power to carry out your aims don't ya? No. You picture yourself as a congressman or senator... You HAVE tried to enter politics but withdrew for reasons we shall investigate. We try to enter politics all the time but its in a different way, were activists What's the big deal? But I'm a bad activist. You are good... You're just kind of, you know, loose cannon. Well, you're in a loose cannon. No directions! Well, you're just not logical. I was just in The Wall Street Journal today to go pick up a copy. Fine. Good for you. I mean so what? Business pages. Go look. Well, I don't give a damn. I mean, I do care if you were or not. And that's all because of me

28:42 Now, it's important to add... It is not from daddy. I'm not in the Wall Street Journal because of Daddy period. Well, I know well i'm not the wall street journal because my dad will neither am I even though my daddy owns but I never get into cash someday. My Dad's dead somebody help me out yeah now it's important that we all need to add this tonight loving Kirk Mitchell he's loving the children and he's been very honest with us tonight Again, we want to thank you for spending time with us. It's always a pleasure it really is again there's your SOS board member absolutely pay for the privilege it's fun do me a favor say hi to David Rockefeller I don't think if I ever see him I will keep working this hard getting the property and consolidating it

29:35 Believe me, you're gonna get to meet with one of them. You'll be groveling at my feet is that what you're saying? Oh God it's a funny idea but it's not going to happen so... Well I mean this is such a preposterous idea. Did you see Clinton at the CFR meeting televised four weeks ago he said thank you David Rockefeller I don't even know what CFR is. Maybe, maybe I misjudged you. Maybe I should apologize to you. You don't even know who the Council on Foreign Relations is! That's who runs the entire country now it's time we get serious Okay well that's your bailiwick. I'm watching out for local stuff. You're watching out for the local property? Well I mean I am a citizen activist. Taking care of the children Trying to do things that are good for the community

30:22 for the children? Well, I don't demigrog...I don't play demagogue games with children or family. All that BS you hear all the time. I just don't do it because I think it's repugnant Any comments from you sir? You gotta be joking right? I'm gonna get out of here. Give the Constitution back and to the New World Order we shall! We must and will prevail

31:07 willing to stand up against what's happening. God bless the republic and the United States! Thank you very much folks
