Phone Call with Robert David Steele June 15, 2017 12:20pm Eastern

This is the original recording of a phone call I placed to Robert David Steele on June 15, 2017 after learning George Webb had been arrested just after the events of June 14, concerning the Port of Charleston. The phone call was prompted by an email from Steele to Webb and myself:

"Jason,

I am cancelling our meeting tomorrow. You are about to be arrested by NYPD at request of USCG for filing a false report. George, if he is not already being detailed, will be detained and probably released, but the burden here is on you, Jason, as the source.

I will be available for a skype interview at any time, but the possibility of me putting myself in a room you control is now zero.

George,

Wayne Madsen is wllling to meet you and give you a hearing I have offered to host lunch. He tells me no one has produced compelling proof on the Awan situation, the burden is on you.

My impression of you, George, has not changed. It remains positive. I think you are being played by some very bad boys and I would be glad to have that discussion anytime you wish. In my view, our shared priority should be to separate you from Jason in terms of reputation and protect your following, and to continue to help each other advance over the next 90 - 120 days.

I will be in the car from 1200-1700 if you are able to see this email and can call.

Robert"
