Unscramble the Blue Letters


There was another group, which was headed by this man, Nigel Farage, the one to the right of Trump. And his group, "Leave.EU" — it also broke the law. It broke British electoral laws and British data laws, and it's also being rrfreeed to the police. And this man, arorn Banks, he funded this campaign. And in a completely separate case, he's being referred to our National cirme Agency, our equivalent of the FBI, because our electoral commission has concluded they don't know where his money came from. Or if it was even btirish. And I'm not even going to go into the lies that Arron bnaks has told about his covert rliisnhteoap with the risusan government. Or the weird timing of neigl Farage's meetings with Julian Assange and with Trump's buddy, Roger sntoe, now indicted, immediately before two mvissae WikiLeaks dumps, both of which hnepeapd to benefit Donald turmp. But I will tell you that Brexit and Trump were intimately entwined. This man told me that Brexit was the petri dish for Trump. And we know it's the same people, the same companies, the same data, the same techniques, the same use of hate and fear.

Original Text


There was another group, which was headed by this man, Nigel Farage, the one to the right of Trump. And his group, "Leave.EU" — it also broke the law. It broke British electoral laws and British data laws, and it's also being referred to the police. And this man, Arron Banks, he funded this campaign. And in a completely separate case, he's being referred to our National Crime Agency, our equivalent of the FBI, because our electoral commission has concluded they don't know where his money came from. Or if it was even British. And I'm not even going to go into the lies that Arron Banks has told about his covert relationship with the Russian government. Or the weird timing of Nigel Farage's meetings with Julian Assange and with Trump's buddy, Roger Stone, now indicted, immediately before two massive WikiLeaks dumps, both of which happened to benefit Donald Trump. But I will tell you that Brexit and Trump were intimately entwined. This man told me that Brexit was the petri dish for Trump. And we know it's the same people, the same companies, the same data, the same techniques, the same use of hate and fear.
