00:03:53.400We, you know, we have the resistance and you have this, between the administrative state, outside groups, NGOs, billionaires, they're trying to regroup their media.
00:04:07.900But two weeks into this, three weeks into this, they're shattered to a degree.
00:04:15.460They're going to regroup and be a major piece.
00:04:18.800But what the most important thing that's happening for President Trump's transition in the start of a second term, and this is my point that my mantra of seize the institutions, is there's three lines of work right now.
00:04:33.600And where the Biden regime, the illegitimate Biden regime, I might add, is working against the country's interests and working against President Trump's interests.
00:04:45.340First, let's break it down to the three broad lines of work of the fiasco and disaster of the Biden regime, the invasion of the southern border that left, I don't know, 10, 11, 15 million illegal alien invaders.
00:04:59.780And I've said over and over again, we do not demonize those folks that came across.
00:05:06.100They were invited here by your government, your illegitimate regime that stole the 2020 election.
00:05:11.620Invited him here, thought it permanently would create not just a voting bloc, but to drive down wages and add to the economy that they couldn't do themselves.
00:05:22.300Todd Benzman is going to be on here because we're going to show you exactly what this illegitimate regime of Biden and the administrative deep state are doing right now to make it even a bigger problem.
00:05:34.980Like it's not big enough, even a bigger problem than what we have.
00:05:38.940The second is the wars, World War Three.
00:05:43.920As you know, we've been the proponent that we're in the early stages of World War Three.
00:05:48.960Karen Sigmund and the team over at AFA, her alliance, have had conferences.
00:05:56.380We've had, I don't know, five or six conferences over the last year and a half talking about the early years of the Third World War.
00:06:02.960Well, the Biden regime with NATO is doing as much as they possibly can to throw gasoline onto the fire over in Ukraine.
00:06:14.040Zero Hedge has a tremendous story, aggregates a lot that's going on, including not just the NATO allies saying they want to put troops up there,
00:06:23.240but Biden stockpiling weapons, Biden giving authority, giving authority for the Ukrainians to fire American long range missiles into Russia.
00:06:37.620There's American technicians over there.
00:06:39.860The British have just fired the British weapons.
00:06:41.740I believe there's British technicians over there, fire control experts.
00:06:44.600But even more shocking and kind of breathtaking is this revelation by the New York Times that American officials with European officials have had,
00:06:58.940this is the New York Times, baby, have had discussions about deploying nuclear weapons, tactical nuclear weapons into Ukraine.
00:07:09.400Nothing could trigger a broader shooting war than to try to do it.
00:07:27.640You've got the Middle East war around Israel.
00:07:29.640The International Criminal Court has named Bibi and I think his war minister, international war criminals, Hungary, Viktor Orban, said, hey, they're welcome here.
00:07:40.140But if they go anywhere else, they'll be arrested inside of Europe.
00:07:43.700So certainly the Persians, it looks like they're trying to gear up, right, exacerbated by the Biden regime.
00:07:55.540The Chinese Communist Party has put out four red lines that Biden's just kind of rolled over to, four red lines, including Taiwan, that Taiwan's a province, America can't defend it, and particularly that America can't be supporting any democracy movement whatsoever.
00:08:12.280And just to put a cherry on top of that, they sent to prison 45 pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong the other day.
00:08:21.960The last but not least is the debt and the deficit in this firestorm that's coming.
00:08:26.220We still don't know, and it's still hard to kind of deconstruct exactly what Janet Yellen and the Federal Reserve have done this.
00:08:34.660Remember, it was about a year ago, this time, that you had this extraordinary kind of merger of the Fed and the Treasury on essentially turning the financing of our massive debt kind of how Argentina used to do it.
00:08:51.240How developing nations and third world countries used to do it, and they would just, because they had to, just do short-term financing of 90-day bills, six months, 30 days, just to kind of kick the can down the road.
00:09:04.500With the Federal Reserve at the time, cutting rates and adding more liquidity to the market, I think the QTs kind of have had stopped.
00:09:14.440Now we're in a situation, we've got, we just passed $36 trillion.
00:09:37.540Besant is a calming factor to the markets.
00:09:41.600Listen, he is a MAGA guy, and he's got a MAGA growth scenario.
00:09:45.920The last chance that we have preached on here, the last chance you're going to have to try to, I didn't say we're going to do it, to try to, well, you can definitely, I think, stop the bleeding and try to grow your way out of here.
00:09:57.000To have a growth strategy, of economic growth, and kind of going back to the animal spirits, a combination of smart tax cuts, can't cut everything.
00:10:06.840Remember, we're pretty opposed, in fact, I would say we're very opposed to any tax cuts to the wealthy or to the billionaires, kind of the guy, the donor class that got us into this jam with their political puppets.
00:10:18.580But with the smart tax cuts for working class and middle class people, particularly we're huge advocates of no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security, and corporate taxes and the tax on the wealthy, you're going to have to figure out how to fill the gap, right?
00:10:37.040But the problems are even deeper than that.
00:10:40.280The problems now are this massive, massive debt that's been left to us by Yellen, by the Biden regime, and now all of a sudden, Mourning Joe, you know, Mourning Joe's a hawk.
00:10:53.160Well, how come we weren't hawks when we piled all this debt on and all this spending that we have no earthy idea if the spending's going to have any impact or not?
00:11:01.920Go back, particularly folks who have been on this show, been watching this show for a couple of years.
00:11:06.860Remember, in January and February of 2020, 2020, when the pandemic first started, we were an advocate of what President Trump did.
00:11:16.220You had to step into the breach, had to step into the breach because you had a massive implosion of what's called, in Keynesian economic theory, aggregate demand.
00:11:27.520When people were, you know, when the COVID first hit and nobody really kind of fully understood what it was, you know, the bioweapon from the Chinese Communist Party, right?
00:11:35.240Maybe with a little help from Barrack down at the University of North Carolina and Fauci, with an assist from Fauci and Barrack and others funded by U.S. taxpayers, but weaponized and then let out by the Chinese Communist Party out of Wuhan.
00:11:53.460And major parts of the intelligence community and the FBI and others know that.
00:11:58.920And that all that all come out in the fullness of time starting after January 20, the 20th, January 2025.
00:12:06.280There was a there was a need at the time because of imperfect information in the fog of war about you needed an infusion.
00:12:15.800And President Trump gave that to kind of bridge, as we said, that bridge to for aggregate demand was going to get us from one side of the pandemic to the other with the economy still hitting on trying to hit all cylinders as Trump had it in 18 and 19.
00:12:40.320And we've said the CR is on the run out of money on the 20th of December, based on Christmas Eve, essentially less than a month for now.
00:12:51.640I think what they'll do is kick that over.
00:12:54.480And we're not, as you know, we fight all these CRs.
00:12:58.040But in this regard, it actually kicks it in to let President Trump and his team cut their cut their first budget.
00:13:05.460At the same time, I think it's January 3rd that we hit the debt ceiling.
00:13:11.320Now, Scott Besson and Russ Vogt, the one to the touchdown twins of this economic program, I'm sure will come up with some way to waterfall the cash flow that we can kick it down a couple of months.
00:13:24.980But the debt ceiling deal expires, essentially expires on 2 January, 3 January.
00:13:30.540And then you have the revision of the of the reversal of the tax cuts.
00:14:29.260President Trump, you know, was not born yesterday and he's not going to allow the deep state and administrative state to do to him in 2024 and 2025 what they did to him in 16 and 17.
00:16:41.980If eight years ago, Americans were lukewarm on Donald Trump, at this particular point, they're giving him much more of the benefit of the doubt.
00:16:48.600A lot more Americans are in love with this transition.
00:16:50.840This much more meets the historical norms where normally presidents get that boost coming out of their victory.
00:16:56.680And what we're seeing here is Donald Trump's presidential transition is getting a thumbs up and, dare I say, two thumbs up from the American people.
00:17:04.620And, you know, we're still on the appointment phase at this point.
00:17:07.040But it does give insight to sort of where this team is thinking to lead some of these key departments, of course.
00:17:12.780I mean, but how do people feel about the prospects of his presidency given the context of some of these big things?
00:17:18.200Yeah, it's not just that they like what Donald Trump is doing right now.
00:17:59.900And more than that, looking forward to the upcoming Trump term.
00:18:02.700Eight years ago, the majority were scared or concerned.
00:18:05.580Now the majority are excited or optimistic.
00:18:08.500And, look, I mean, the reality is for these cabinet picks, they've got to get confirmed by the Senate here.
00:18:13.960And so I think, rightfully so, a lot of concern has gone into, okay, where will Republicans fall in supporting these picks since they are the majority?
00:18:22.920But Democrats were also very opposed to Trump's picks and his presidency overall in 2017 coming in.
00:19:19.800I think a lot of people are exhausted, you know, after the election.
00:19:22.460I think a lot of people are exhausted, but this is really a very different picture from eight years ago.
00:19:26.860The American folks are much more behind Donald Trump than they were back in November of 2016.
00:19:30.720And Democrats who are so rich in their opposition to Donald Trump eight years ago, at this particular point, they're just like, eh, I'm going to take a step back.
00:19:41.780I told you, Harry Enten, I think, is, given the corporate media and the mainstream media, he's about as straight a guy as you can get in giving you facts.
00:20:59.760You need full on, you have a unique opportunity to take on the administrative state and to break it apart.
00:21:04.780This radical fourth branch of government that was never envisioned by the revolutionary generation or the founders and framers of the Constitution and really the people that laid the, you know, 200 and what, 35, 40 years ago, laid the foundation for this great nation.
00:21:23.360We're going to move Benzman up because it's so important.
00:21:26.320Remember, three lines of work are what they're trying to do.
00:21:28.240They're trying to still exacerbate and leave more chaotic the southern border situation, try to get as many people in here and try to make it as difficult as possible to do the mass deportations.
00:21:38.740Second, on the war, beyond, out of control and dangerous, talking about New York Times reporting, not Breitbart, not Gateway Pundit, not Revolver, not those groups, not Citizen Free Press, not the folks on our side of the football.
00:21:54.840But the revered paper of record, the New York Times reporting that American and European officials have had discussions with officials in Ukraine about the deployment of nuclear weapons, tactical nuclear weapons inside of Ukraine.
00:22:12.480And also stockpiling American conventional weapons to kind of hamstring Trump's ability to negotiate a peace that he would think would be a smart peace deal.
00:22:24.540And last but not least, the debt, the financial crisis, all of that, that is above Scott Besson, very well received by global markets, as we said over and over and over again.
00:22:36.540It's not that it's not going to be really choppy going forward.
00:22:39.940It is, but at least initially, they reviewed Besson as a guy that understands global capital markets, as you know, since his very first media hit was on this show back in, or serious media hit was on this show back in January or February of this year, when he got to introduce himself to MAGA.

00:23:05.640And Rachel Maddow and your producers, no, we're not trying to destroy the dollar.
00:24:05.040Well, it seems that this is the moment.
00:24:09.260This is a moment of great optimism, as you said.
00:24:14.060We have an historic opportunity now to deal with some of the problems which have been bequeathed,
00:24:20.080not only by Joe Biden and not only by Barack Obama,
00:24:23.920but by a long history of efforts to take over the government, to displace the prerogatives of Congress,
00:24:35.300the branch of our government that is entrusted with the legislative power of government.
00:24:42.240But slowly at first and then more and more rapidly, what people like you and me have called the administrative state has taken over.
00:24:53.980And we are ruled now not by our elected officials.
00:24:57.860This is precisely the kind of despotism that Alexis de Tocqueville looked forward to in Democracy in America when he warned about democratic despotism.
00:25:23.660He said in a democracy, in a modern democracy, what you would see is despotism installing itself, as it were, by stealth.
00:25:34.660And it would do this by promulgating an ever more complex network of rules and regulations that would reach into the interstices of everyday life
00:25:48.400and stymie initiative and transform the public into, from citizens, from free citizens into a herd of sheep
00:25:59.720over which the government would preside as a more or as it sometimes is less benevolent shepherd.
00:26:41.620That's patent nonsense to take a trip to your local DMV, have an interaction with the with the IRS.
00:26:54.520Try to start a business when Elon Musk told us that he had to provide a statement about how his rockets were going to affect the sharks in the water where the rockets were going to come down.
00:27:14.900And that is a perfect illustration of the administrative state in action.
00:27:22.140We try to try to build a house where I live.
00:27:27.520We were affected by Hurricane Sandy several years ago.
00:27:30.480And the nightmare of dealing with FEMA, with the local building authority, made the reality of the administrative state all too patent to me.

00:30:32.440So, look, Roger, what you named is interesting, but that's just bureaucrats.
00:30:37.240That's just, you know, you've got to get a lot, and I'm sorry that, I'm sorry to build your, hang on, I'm sorry to build your new mansion down on the beach in Jersey or wherever.
00:30:47.300You've got to get a couple of permits, or, Roger, they make you to get another, you know, photo, but hang on.
00:30:54.880They point a finger to the Roger Kimball's of the world and the Steve Bannon's world and said, you guys went to all these highfalutin schools.
00:31:03.420You know that there's no administrative state, but you're feeding the hard right of the Trump movement with all these fantasies that there's some administrative state,
00:31:14.240and then there's a rogue element, the deep state, which is the intelligence, military, and law enforcement aspect of it.
00:31:19.880So, once again, I'm going to ask you, why do you say in your piece that this is a unique moment in time for President Trump and the people around him to actually deconstruct the administrative state and take down the deep state, sir?
00:32:00.440One, people like to use the phrase conspiracy theory as if that somehow negates the legitimacy of what's being described.
00:32:11.360But some conspiracy theories are correct.
00:32:14.420So, when Calpurnia told Julius Caesar that there were conspiracy theories about his being assassinated in 44 B.C. and the Ides of March, he scoffed at it.
00:32:27.500But it turns out that was a true conspiracy theory.
00:32:30.440But that's one point, that do not let people delegitimate what you're saying by the epithet conspiracy theory, because sometimes conspiracies are real.
00:32:51.520For the same reason that the Stalinist and the Leninist deep state was real.
00:32:56.420Lenin said that communism means keeping track of everything.
00:33:01.340And that is what the administrative state is trying to do.
00:33:05.120We've erected this gigantic surveillance regulatory apparatus.
00:33:10.200And just as a subject of the Soviet Union would have been subjugated to that administrative state, so we in this country are increasingly subject to the American version of that.
00:33:46.840But what it is is you can see with your own eyes the way in which we have gradually and then rapidly moved away from the vision of the founders, where we have three branches of government and only three, not four.
00:34:02.460They didn't have a provision for this vast cadre of, again, unelected and unaccountable bureaucrats.
00:34:21.780So the reality of this deep state, this administrative state, I think is – I mean, who are you going to believe, you know, me or your lying eyes, as I think it was Groucho Marx said?
00:34:34.960But to the second point, why is this an historic moment?
00:34:38.340Because Donald Trump has just won a decisive victory.
00:34:42.420And he's won not just the electoral votes, not just the popular vote.
00:34:50.200You just were playing a segment from CNN, of all places, noting the Trump effect, that somehow everybody seems to be a little more positive about this transition.
00:35:05.000And the opportunity that has been given to us is very, very rare.
00:35:11.220And I really hope that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, with their Department of Governmental Efficiency, are able to do what they outlined in their piece in the Wall Street Journal a few days ago, which I summarized in my piece in American Greatness yesterday,
00:35:29.520which is to attack the regulatory apparatus, to lower the headcount of the number of bureaucrats, and finally to effect, you know, important cost savings for the American people.
00:35:51.540And by the way, they mentioned things like the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and Planned Parenthood, you know, a few billion dollars of expenditures.
00:36:02.140But one they didn't mention that I'd like to mention is the National Endowment for Democracy, which gets, I think, about $320 million from the government.
00:36:34.440As we've gone through in the show many times, the National Endowment for Democracy started with Jesse Helms and the anti-communist warriors back in the 80s and 90s.
00:36:44.200But it has been taken over by the color revolution crowd of Robert Kagan and his quite destructive and dangerous wife, Victoria Nuland, and others.
00:36:53.360Anne Applebaum's of the world, which are always trying to get us into –
00:36:57.440So, Roger, one thing – if you're going to make a – see, by the way, I love the Caesar and – with Caesar's wife warning him.
00:37:08.200The other conspiracy, too, was that – and this relates directly to Trump – is that they – you know, his guys warning him that the Senate were coming after him on a conspiracy to charge Caesar with corruption and gall of all the great work he had done in conquering Gaul.
00:37:25.560Well, that's why he headed back to the Rubicon and said, maybe I have something to say about that.
00:37:30.400But this was exactly like – this was exactly like what the deep state – let's talk about the deep state aspect of this.
00:37:37.560The deep state came after Trump in a way that is unfathomable to the American people.
00:37:43.820And remember, MSNBC and The New York Times put – they put democracy on the ballot as their number one thing.
00:40:33.100And that headcount, I might add, because we've done the math.
00:40:36.040You've got 2.5 million federal employees, about 2.5 million military.
00:40:39.180Of the 18 million contractors, about 4 or 5 million, I believe, are in kind of managerial functions.
00:40:45.500I just rounded – kind of rounding there.
00:40:47.520But roughly, then you have – if you add that together, you've got about 10 million people that – folks that are running this $6.5 trillion apparatus.
00:40:56.260You've got to reduce the headcount and the billets.
00:41:02.500It's not just waste, fraud, and abuse.
00:41:04.160Let's put that – yeah, there's certainly waste.
00:41:07.560There's certainly some fraud, no doubt about it.
00:41:09.700There's certainly abuse, inefficiencies, all that.
00:41:12.660But this is programmatic, and that is the second part of the puzzle.
00:41:16.140Remember, DOGE at the end of the day, when you look at their agreement, is nothing more than an advisory and consulting group to – wait for it – RussVote and OMB.
00:41:29.140RussVote is now announced as the director of OMB, and that's been, I think, embraced except for the madness that they're throwing at him as being a Christian nationalist in 2025 and all that.
00:41:39.900But Russ's OMB will be the driving force with DOGE kind of on a flank, helping them, assisting them, highlighting as these guys can really get to the media.
00:41:48.700The other aspect of that you also have is the legislative branch because, remember, we go through a process.
00:41:53.660We fought back with the McCarthy situation in January and February of 2023 to get the appropriations process to be 12 individual bills that are all going through.
00:42:03.800That appropriations process, now with subcommittees, I think Joni Ernst in the Senate, MTG in the House, will also be, I think, in oversight working with appropriations.
00:42:13.660When you merge all of that together, you have, for the first time, after decades and decades and decades of talk about taking down the leviathan of too big a government to get back to limited government,
00:42:28.960you actually have the forces arrayed for battle, right, from tech entrepreneurs, people that are bringing about cutting costs,
00:42:37.160all the way to Russ Vogt and the team over at OMB to now Capitol Hill awakened to the fact that why did we appropriate this just to cut it later?
00:42:45.460Maybe we get into the appropriations process and cut it out at the beginning.
00:42:49.520This is the beginning of action, action, action, and using your agency.
00:42:55.180See, short commercial break, Warpath Coffee.
00:43:02.240You know, when you go over to the Birch Gold site, get a big pot of Warpath going, Mariner's Blend.
00:43:08.580You know, I hate to say it, I like my old packaging better than the new packaging.
00:45:31.980I know this audience won't, but for those maybe new viewers and new listeners, the Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis and the Mike Pompeo and all the Mitch McConnell, and particularly Paul Ryan.
00:45:45.020In fact, if my team, can we cut some of the Paul Ryan vitriol, Trump can't win, Trump can't do this.
00:47:00.520When you have them shattered and you have them in the fetal position sucking their thumb, looking for a pacifier, this is when you roll hard, hard, hard.
00:48:31.280So what's happening at the border right now is the Trump effect 2.0.
00:48:36.040If you remember, the Trump effect was the term given to the first term, just the talk, the tough talk that was heard around the world among the aspiring illegal aliens.
00:48:50.060And they decided to stay home just at the talk.
00:48:53.400You've got to have follow through with action, though.
00:48:56.320We're at the tough talk part again, 2.0.
00:48:59.900The numbers are about 1,800 a day, border-wide, 500 in Texas.
00:49:04.920And the rest, California and Arizona, for the most part.
00:49:07.860Those numbers are low historically by four years.
00:49:13.420We want to see those things down below 1,000 a day, even when Trump is actually doing deportations and pushbacks under Remain in Mexico.
00:50:12.060But they could rush that border between now and inauguration and hope that they get in and don't get caught up in mass deportation plans or anything like that.
00:50:23.420So things are unstable but pretty – but good so far with Trump Effect 2.0.
00:51:06.760Of course what the administration is doing, the outgoing lame duck administration, is they're trying to get as many people in and Trump-proofed as they possibly can in the next 54 days.
00:51:19.840They are fast-tracking people on the CBP-1 app who have applied and gotten in and trying to get them their applications approved so that they can fly more in, approve for flights, many more in, and cross them over the land border as well at the ports of entry.
00:51:47.100They're trying to make it as quickly as possible.
00:51:50.860I have a USCIS officer who just is in the middle of all this who just told me that they had a big meeting and they were told all hands on deck to stamp approve, stamp approve, stamp approve, everybody on deck.
00:52:04.600Get them in here as fast as possible to make facts on the ground that will be hard to reverse when the Trump people get into office.
00:52:13.540And then also they're contemplating reapplying temporary protected status.
00:52:34.500We'll include things like preservatives, artificial ingredients, and other additives that really aren't benefiting your health.
00:52:48.360So that's why we created Sacred Human, really trying to fill this gap of quality supplements.
00:52:54.120And of course, the beef liver being our flagship products.
00:52:57.220For those who don't know, beef liver is loaded with highly bioavailable ingredients such as vitamin A, B12, zinc, CoQ10, etc.
00:53:06.080And because it is 100% grass-fed and natural, your body is able to absorb these nutrients far better than taking any other synthetic multivitamin or any other synthetic vitamin in general.
00:53:19.180So we have some other amazing products, but if you'd like to check us out, you can go to sacredhumanhealth.com and cheers to your health.
