00:00:01.000
Moments away, President Trump will be landing behind me.
00:00:04.000
Real America's Voice and Brian Glenn, because of great reporting,
00:00:10.000
This is the forgotten man and woman, completely abandoned.
00:00:13.000
If you want to know what President Trump is up to,
00:00:17.000
The communications staff understands the power of streaming
00:00:21.000
and the power of things like Real America's Voice.
00:00:25.000
The First Lady's first trip is with her husband,
00:00:28.000
the President of the United States, showing how much she cares about this.
00:00:33.000
This is Real America's Voice has been invited by the White House communications team.
00:00:36.000
I think it's just a wonderful thing that he's here today.
00:00:45.000
I'm stopping in North Carolina first because they've been abused by what's happened.
00:00:51.000
A lot of Americans think that this is symbolic of what your campaign was all about.
00:00:55.000
America first, putting your priorities to Americans.
00:00:59.000
Even going to California, where their policies might have been more of the biggest reasons
00:01:15.000
And he's also a very professional reporter, I have to say.
00:01:28.000
When the mainstream media is like, how did Trump come back?
00:01:30.000
How they came back was pick and shovel worse every day.
00:01:33.000
War Room every day for four hours a day was hammering this.
00:01:36.000
These new media outlets and people like yourself that bet everything and put all the chips in the middle of the table,
00:01:41.000
say, hey, we back this guy, we back this movement.
00:02:11.000
There is fierce wind down power lines, power poles toppled over.
00:02:26.000
Flames are coming back over PCH, are being blown by fierce winds.
00:02:33.000
It is like driving through hell itself down here, literally through hell.
00:02:42.000
These homes are on fire and you can feel the heat from the flames even from inside your car.
00:02:50.000
Take a look at this fire tornado spotted above the Palisades fire this morning.
00:03:17.000
off the hot sun as well as aggressive side puedesist lever.
00:08:43.960
She's trying to work her way into the Palisades.
00:08:47.400
So here's what's going to happen this afternoon.
00:08:49.400
The president is going to land momentarily, I think, within the next half hour at LAX on Air Force
00:08:55.180
I believe I have some short comments on the tarmac.
00:08:57.180
I've talked to some officials, Gavin Newsom, think the governor is going to be out there.
00:09:02.480
Don't know if Mayor Bass is going to be out there.
00:09:04.180
Then the president right now is planning on helicoptering.
00:09:10.200
You've got a couple hours of daylight, sun goes down about 530, this time 520 in LA by the
00:09:17.980
President, a helicopter up to the Palisades, and I'll spend an hour or so up there.
00:09:22.140
I think there's going to be another roundtable meeting with officials.
00:09:24.860
But really, the president should get on the ground and see what's going on.
00:09:28.480
Remember, there's additional fires happening in LA right now because of the wind conditions,
00:09:36.000
The situation this afternoon is going to be quite different than this morning.
00:09:43.040
He's very focused on this deconstruction of the administrative state.
00:09:45.820
The president is very focused on efficiency and effectiveness.
00:09:51.100
I don't know if Elon's gotten in his ear or not with Doge.
00:09:54.160
But he is furious at FEMA for however the money was held back because the devastation he saw
00:10:01.580
in western North Carolina today, this is four months ago.
00:10:12.140
He wanted everybody to know, and First Lady Melania Trump is with him.
00:10:17.460
He wanted everybody to know he was going out there to see the forgotten man and woman.
00:10:20.260
He's quite furious about, he's quite upset about FEMA.
00:10:23.220
But he made a comment before he got on the plane that, hey, if FEMA had the money, did Joe
00:10:32.000
Out there today, because of, we had Joshua Pettit on here talking about these coastal
00:10:37.000
commissions, talking about these environmental, there's so many laws, so many regulations,
00:10:41.320
so many over the top, whether it's the Delta smelt fish about the water or whether it's
00:10:46.340
the coastal commissions about what you can cut down.
00:10:48.500
This whole thing that President Trump has warned Gavin Newsom about for years since he
00:10:52.620
was out there at the Paradise Fire and walked around with Gavin Newsom, made a comment
00:11:02.200
And the American people, you know, they're talking about $200 billion of damage.
00:11:05.860
They're also talking about an insurance industry that won't insure.
00:11:09.140
I think somebody told me one third of the Palisades' homes were uninsured because they say,
00:11:14.020
hey, now you live in a fire zone and we can't insure you.
00:11:20.760
Ben will be back in, he'll be back in Chicago tomorrow.
00:11:23.660
Ben, one, your perspective on this morning, what you saw in North Carolina, and then I
00:11:29.720
want to tee up for what you and I are going to do in the 6 o'clock hour.
00:11:33.120
Talk to me first about the visit to North Carolina today.
00:11:36.120
You, 10 days ago, Ben, you were out there as one of the driving forces, I think, to make
00:11:39.480
sure the president and his staff understood people were hurting.
00:11:43.120
These are people, the president's biggest backers, people that love the president.
00:11:47.000
They've been abandoned by Joe Biden, abandoned by the administrative state.
00:11:53.660
Well, it's the beginning of restoring America first.
00:11:59.500
It's the beginning of restoring trust in government and the people of this country realizing that
00:12:04.920
their government isn't out to get them, isn't against them.
00:12:08.940
And that's President Trump's entire campaign was restoring the forgotten man.
00:12:14.880
All of these communities feel not just forgotten, they feel intentionally abandoned.
00:12:21.320
They feel not, they're not victims because they've taken it upon themselves in that interim
00:12:28.200
But they just, they feel like the government is against them, not for them.
00:12:31.760
And today was the beginning of restoring that trust.
00:12:39.060
I want to go, by the way, Brian Glenn is heading back to these magnificent, he's heading to Georgia,
00:12:44.500
He's going to be, and he's actually going to be down at Doral on Monday with the president.
00:12:52.240
At six o'clock, we're going to do something very special.
00:12:54.960
It ties directly back to when you were there 10 days ago, and really to the forgotten
00:13:03.960
I was trying to reach out to all my contacts down there in Tennessee and North Carolina
00:13:07.820
to make sure that they had all gotten the invite to President Trump's visit, to make
00:13:15.560
Texts weren't going through, calls weren't going through.
00:13:18.980
He is being held in the county jail as we speak.
00:13:22.220
He got put in jail yesterday for some nonsense bounce check issue.
00:13:28.040
This county, you want to talk about corruption.
00:13:30.000
You want to talk about the government, the tyranny that still exists in our government.
00:13:36.200
We're going to get Tyler on the phone from jail to tell the story about this corruption
00:13:52.220

00:14:19.780

00:14:42.260
We're going to be back in the war room in just a moment.
00:15:02.540
Now the work can finally start on the big issues facing the country.
00:15:05.960
One of the biggest is the national debt and the deficits that drive it.
00:15:13.720
We're just printing money to keep this house of cards going.
00:15:25.120
So many things are out of your control, out of the president's control.
00:15:29.180

00:16:31.940
Ladies and gentlemen, and if you're hearing this, listening to the podcast, you must go to the website and get the command report and all the footage.
00:16:40.320
That, ladies and gentlemen, is one of the most quaint villages, neighborhoods in all of Los Angeles.
00:16:48.840
The Los Angeles, you know, megalopolis, which, I don't know if you added everything up, is what, 12, 15 million people?
00:16:55.500
This is the home of, you know, Billy Crystal and Tom Hanks and so many stars today.
00:17:02.920
But in the old days, this was kind of the low-key.
00:17:05.060
The folks that didn't want to live in Beverly Hills, didn't want to live in Bel Air, didn't want to live in Holmby Hills.
00:17:19.640
That is what President Trump's coming to today.
00:17:22.560
And President Trump, this one's getting some tough questions.
00:17:24.800
Number one, this has turned into a progressive enclave.
00:17:29.460
I think 80 percent of the enclave is progressive, and I mean progressive left.
00:17:33.380
They're one of the biggest fundraisers for the left.
00:17:35.880
But these people are getting red-pilled quickly.
00:17:41.020
Yeah, if we can walk down and look up the streets.
00:17:49.860
If you, in fact, if the cameraman, that's been our cameraman.
00:17:54.760
If we can walk towards the main part of the Palisades, if he can walk in there, I don't even know if the, there's police right there.
00:18:01.880
I don't even know how the, I don't even know how the cameraman's in there.
00:18:10.040
The, President Trump is going to be some tough conversations today.
00:18:15.960
Much, this is much different than North Carolina.
00:18:18.740
And the conversations today are going to be about what caused this.
00:18:23.780
I mean, the, the policies, the environmental policies that were in back of this, that led to this.
00:18:30.320
President Trump is, he's maniacally focused on one thing, and this is the water.
00:18:34.660
He wants to know why there wasn't water available to use for the fire department and why it wasn't even down to the, to the, the fire hydrants itself.
00:18:46.260
A massive organizational issue, a massive, just complete collapse of what we call complex systems in order to keep you safe and secure.
00:18:57.000
I mean, Bill Maher has been on a rampage on this to say how incompetent these people are and how they pay the highest taxes.
00:19:06.420
The thing that shocked me in watching this, that when it was burning, you didn't see any firemen at all.
00:19:20.340
And I understand people say what's different than urban fire and these wildfires, but there was no protection of the homes.
00:19:24.640
They just kind of went home to home and burnt to the ground.
00:19:29.900
The other was firemen saying, Hey, even if they went in, there was no water pressure.
00:19:34.420
Remember they had a, they had a real clown the first couple of days, a female that when they answered the question about the tank, she would sit there and be very precise.
00:19:44.140
Well, the tank ran out a million gallons at like a 10 o'clock at night.
00:19:48.300
The next one at like one 30 in the morning, the next one, three 30.
00:19:51.100
And it's like, Hey lady, I don't, I don't need the precise time that each ran out of the water.
00:19:55.940
I want to know why they weren't refilled immediately.
00:20:03.700
Like I said, it's not Beverly Hills or Bel Air or Holmby Hills where the houses are, you know, oftentimes 25, 30, $40 million, $50 million sometime.
00:20:12.580
These are, are smaller houses and some of them quite quaint.
00:20:19.400
Palisades has a reputation for great schools, has a tremendous, you know, Corpus Christi's up there.
00:20:30.120
I mean, the public schools are terrific up there.
00:20:32.260
The private schools of Corpus Christi and St. Matthew's are some of the best in all of L.A.
00:20:37.720
Pally High is known as one of the best high schools, a historic high school up there.
00:20:44.300
Calvary Christian is one of the, one of the best classical, classical Christian schools in the country.
00:20:57.640
And I think you're going to see, as I said, it's so devastating that, you know, I, as now the reality dawns on people, some of the people I know up there who are flaming liberals and big progressives, they are such shock.
00:21:12.780
It's like, how could we have done everything right and been so politically correct?
00:21:17.820
And I believe you're going to find when the analysis is done that there are a lot of these progressive policies, particularly homelessness.
00:21:24.400
I mean, I think one of the most compelling that I've seen, there's our camera right.
00:21:31.080
That's a hulk of a vehicle has not been removed.
00:21:36.400
When you go around, look at this devastation has not, I mean, so the process of this is a decade.
00:21:46.580
By the time you clear out all the toxicity, they do remediation on the ground and water.
00:21:54.280
And they say they're going to do quick permitting.
00:21:57.820
But this is where this kind of radical coastal commission, because Palisades, although it doesn't touch the water, it's right up the hill from Malibu and really from that part of Santa Monica.
00:22:08.920
Santa Monica and Malibu are kind of bisected by the slopes coming down from the Palisades.
00:22:14.480
The Palisades being obviously on the Palisades, on the heights overlooking it.
00:22:18.920
But one of the reasons it's so lovely to live there is you get the sea breezes and the clean, fresh sea air all the time that you don't sometimes get when you're in the valley or even like in some of the inland nice neighborhoods of L.A.
00:22:34.420
It's one of the reasons that Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, and those are Hermosa, Redondo, and Manhattan are very beachy.
00:22:44.720
That's where Captain Bannon was raised in Manhattan Beach.
00:22:49.280
The north, the northern beaches of Santa Monica and really the Palisades and Malibu.
00:22:54.740
Malibu is kind of beachy, but the others are kind of more reserved.
00:22:57.800
You actually have beautiful neighborhoods, these old neighborhoods, and you get beach down below it.
00:23:02.140
But it's not really what I call a beachy, you know, like a surfer community feel.
00:23:08.480
This is what President Trump is going to come to today.
00:23:10.320
And look, there's going to be some tough questions.
00:23:11.800
Number one, just politically, it is, look at that right there, the Santa, because it was just after the, you know, Christmas time.
00:23:22.840
One of the questions is going to be to the governor is that what policies, and people, you know, on MSNBC and CNN, they're freaking out now that President Trump is going to put conditions on relief.
00:23:34.100
Well, look, President Trump is a steward of the taxpayers' money, and taxpayers throughout the nation.
00:23:44.120
I think already the direct cost of the fires are in the $60 to $80 billion range, but that's not even the rebuild.
00:23:51.220
I mean, that's kind of the current cost, the rebuild.
00:23:56.380
Please always keep in mind that California is, I think, the seventh largest economy in the world.
00:24:03.340
Southern California is a powerhouse of an economy.
00:24:06.420
This is going to have a major hit to GDP, a major hit to just growth overall.
00:24:14.360
It's how it gets rebuilt and who's actually underwriting it and footing the bill.
00:24:18.580
I believe I heard that one-third of the homes in Palisades were not insured at all, couldn't get insurance.
00:24:30.720
They're going to look for an underwriting of this.
00:24:32.320
So the American taxpayers are going to have a lot of questions.
00:24:35.520
Let's put politics aside, like exactly how did this happen?
00:24:40.140
You know, fires happen, and particularly wildfires happen.
00:24:45.060
I don't want to hear about climate change in global warming.
00:24:49.340
You had two of the wettest winters we've ever had in Southern California.
00:24:52.740
They're saying that's where the vegetation grew, and you've had kind of a drought now.
00:24:56.800
But this is also not building where people haven't been built before.
00:25:00.560
Remember, a lot of them are saying, well, they're building where, you know, heretofore, the reason these things are burning down, you're putting in areas.
00:25:09.300
I want to remind people, this is just our cameraman, Ben.
00:25:12.060
He's just wandering around, and everywhere he turns, it's more destruction than the last.
00:25:17.200
Folks, remember a couple weeks ago, this was an inferno.
00:25:26.880
The reason you had so few deaths, they went around, and people just, they just took off.
00:25:34.640
If you're watching at home, and if you're listening on the podcast, you've got to get the footage of this.
00:25:41.280
Really, this is good, better than I've seen on MSNBC or CNN.
00:25:46.140
It's quite, you've got some of the police tape up, some of that.
00:25:51.080
I don't believe anybody's being allowed to live in the Palisades.
00:25:54.380
I think even the houses that survived are kind of, they're not, they're kind of condemned.
00:25:59.940
The police at night are sitting there stopping looters and making sure looters don't go through.
00:26:05.140
Look at that, look at it right across the street.
00:26:10.460
President Trump's going to helicopter in from LAX.
00:26:14.180
I'm sure there's going to be a roundtable, like in Carolina.
00:26:21.100
I can tell you that Melania Trump, knowing her friends and knowing LA, and Donald J. Trump, knowing his friends,
00:26:32.280
It was hard enough to comprehend the issues of the flood today in North Carolina,
00:26:37.140
but this is next level of just total and complete destruction.
00:26:46.700
This is like the firebombing in Tokyo in 1945 with nothing standing.
00:26:55.820
She's obviously, there are blockades everywhere.
00:26:58.660
It's the reason President Trump's taking a helicopter.
00:27:07.660
I think there could be, President Trump's very, as you know, magnanimous,
00:27:12.480
but I think there might be a sharp question or two.
00:27:14.900
He is absolutely, I can tell you, he is livid on the fact of why was there not water available to fight this?
00:27:21.700
Why was the Palisades, you know, $117 million, $117 million gallon reservoir was not filled,
00:27:30.340
was empty because of a cosmetic things they were doing for over a year to a, on a, on a lid, on a covering, a tarp.
00:27:41.620
Nicole Newgrady, who's from Southern California, takes us out with modern day Holy War, birch gold.

00:29:44.720
One of the biggest is the national debt and the deficits that drive it.
00:29:52.320
We're just printing money to keep this house of cards going.
00:30:03.740
So many things are out of your control, out of the president's control.
00:30:07.740

If Ben, the cameraman, can give me the live shot right there.
00:31:10.860
What I would like to do, if Denver can reboot, I want people to go back and want to see this fire.
00:31:51.780
It is like driving through hell itself down here.
00:32:00.980
These homes are on fire, and you can feel the heat from the flames, even from inside your car.
00:32:08.560
Okay, if we get, let's reboot the, the fire NATO, or whatever you guys call it.
00:32:16.720
The, okay, what you saw right there is literally, is just down the, it's called the Palisades because it's on a rise.
00:32:25.800
You drop off that rise, and you really, you go right into that area between Santa Monica and Malibu, and right towards those homes.
00:32:38.240
Just to put that previous footage in perspective, on a day like today, when you're driving north, you look to your left.
00:32:47.540
You see those houses, and there's no beach anymore.
00:32:53.680
But you're 50 yards from the water, and I mean, it's a view of the, of the north part of Los Angeles, I guess, the bay, Santa Monica Bay.
00:33:04.020
And what we call, we have, you know, north, the north part of the bay is Santa Monica and Malibu.
00:33:08.160
The south part is Manhattan Beach, Hermosa, and Redondo.
00:33:12.080
But it's one of the most stunning views of the Pacific you can get.
00:33:14.780
It's just all normally calm and just stunning and sunny and incredible.
00:33:21.080
In fact, many of the car commercials on PCH, you see a lot of these car commercials that are written.
00:33:28.140
You got that beautiful view of the Pacific and rocks.
00:33:30.660
That's where you got this neighborhood right here.
00:33:34.500
The sum total of this, I think, is going to be in $150 to $200 billion.
00:33:38.060
There's going to be some big policy decisions that have to be made.
00:33:42.180
Number one, there's an insurance, a reinsurance facility out there that's going to bankrupt.
00:33:45.840
There's going to be very tough questions asked, and they have to be asked.
00:33:50.100
You're not holding back aid and making a contingent.
00:33:54.280
And by the way, the president's plane is right over Joshua Tree.
00:33:56.920
That's in the desert right outside of Palm Springs.
00:34:01.700
Given these headwinds in about 10 or 15 minutes, we will cut to the pool feed there.
00:34:06.900
I'm sure the president is going to say a few words and meet some of the dignitaries.
00:34:15.660
Ben, our cameraman, is doing an incredible job.
00:34:18.440
It was easier for Ben just to put the camera on his shoulders and just hoof it in.
00:34:22.560
Amanda's still a little ways out, and they got one blockade after another.
00:34:25.320
Remember, these homes right now, like I said, one of the most, how do I say, elite neighborhoods in all of Los Angeles,
00:34:34.600
although not garish, very low-keyed, very understated by some of the wealthiest people in town
00:34:40.220
who are more of the understated types, don't want to live in Beverly Hills or Bel Air.
00:34:45.520
One of the problems they've had immediately after this was looting.
00:34:49.860
I believe that even the houses that stand, and there are very few that made it through here,
00:34:55.020
I think most of those have not been described as uninhabitable.
00:34:58.220
You can't get in because the police have kind of barricaded everything.
00:35:00.680
Amanda Hedge now is working her way through one checkpoint after the other to get here.
00:35:08.300
The president of the United States, and they clear the highway for Secret Service,
00:35:16.980
I think he'll go up, I would assume, Pally High, a little football field there on Sunset.
00:35:26.640
Can we play the tornado, the tornadic, I call it tornadic activity.
00:35:38.240
Take a look at this fire tornado spotted above the Palisades Fire this morning.
00:36:03.140
That is when the fire starts burning so hot, it creates really tornadic activity.
00:36:14.740
This is what you had in those first couple of days at the Palisades Fire.
00:36:21.060
Right now, in the Southern California area, we have additional fires that have started because of the high winds.
00:36:28.940
Now, anybody that's lived out there, the Santa Ana winds are kind of the winds that don't come off the ocean.
00:36:33.520
The ocean, when they come in off the ocean, which is 90, I don't know, 5% of the time, it's moisture.
00:36:42.920
And people are quite surprised when you're there for the summer.
00:36:47.280
It's very overcast every day until about noon, until those – until, you know, as the desert heats up and it sucks the moisture in off the ocean.
00:36:54.520
You have this kind of overcast that doesn't burn off until noon or later.
00:37:01.780
But oftentimes, you have what they call Santa Ana.
00:37:04.180
That's coming in from the desert side out to sea.
00:37:08.400
And that's where you have these super high winds.
00:37:10.680
The winds that we – the hurricane-level winds, I mean, they were 80 or 90 miles per hour.
00:37:16.620
Our own Grace Chung lives down in the further south Orange County Beach area, the Huntington, Newport Beach, Laguna Beach area.
00:37:26.740
And the activity down there, they were also in the fire zone.
00:37:30.120
That's normally a place, particularly Laguna Beach and Laguna has burned up on several occasions.
00:37:35.640
You see, Ben, our photographer, just absolutely incredible destruction.
00:37:40.580
President Trump is going to have some frank conversations today.
00:37:47.100
The American taxpayers, that would be you, are going to be asked to – this is over and above FEMA.
00:37:52.940
This is a major catastrophe in one of the biggest real estate markets in the country and, quite frankly, in the heart of a couple of industries.
00:38:12.700
I want to thank the guys at Birch Gold, the team at Birch Gold.
00:38:15.160
We've been for the last couple of days doing live reports.
00:38:23.300
I mean the turbulence that comes from capital markets in the economy.
00:38:27.440
Remember, we have $300 trillion borrowed worldwide.
00:38:30.700
I keep saying we're about to have the world's biggest margin call.
00:38:33.340
When that happens – and I realize gold's close to an all-time high.
00:38:38.600
But you have to – this is why you have to get smart.
00:38:41.200
You have to read our macro, which is the end of the dollar empire.
00:38:44.400
And you have to talk to Philip Patrick and the team about the micro.
00:38:50.460
But I think it helps to understand why gold has been a hedge for 5,000 years of mankind's history.
00:39:00.660
I haven't seen – I am actually – Ben, you're doing a fantastic – Ben hoofed it in.
00:39:04.160
So our photographer – and look, there's no people – this was a town of about 20,000, 25,000 people.
00:39:13.340
I mean it was quite – it was quite, you know, obviously active, but it was a fairly good size.
00:39:18.680
That would be a sizable community anywhere else.
00:39:21.040
Of course, in the megalopolis of Los Angeles, it was quite tiny and quite small.
00:39:27.440
And they had very strict housing concern, you know, the ability to build.
00:39:35.160
Some of the South Bay beaches, they've actually taken these old beautiful craftsmen houses, which Los Angeles is famous for,
00:39:41.740
torn them down and built these mega complexes that are just horrific looking.
00:39:50.120
One of the best schools in all of Southern California.
00:40:05.000
Amanda Head, who actually co-hosts the show with the great John Solomon.
00:40:08.720
Amanda – people – Amanda was, I think, Miss Auburn.
00:40:14.120
I knew her years ago when she was really one of the first conservatives in Hollywood that was actually making us think about being a conservative.
00:40:25.120
Amanda was one of the people that were – she was an aspiring actress, I think, and musician at the time.
00:40:30.740
And was making a big deal about the pressures in Hollywood to conform to the liberal agenda.
00:40:35.700
She's now the co-host of Just the News with John Solomon.
00:40:42.520
Amanda's going to be there shortly, is getting you some footage and get to see what President Trump's about to see.
00:40:48.780
President Trump's very familiar with Southern California.
00:40:50.700
President Trump owns a magnificent house in Beverly Hills.
00:40:54.500
Doesn't spend much time there because he's traveling obviously now.
00:40:57.640
But even in the old days, didn't spend a lot of time there.
00:41:06.680
Although, tonight, he's going to be in Vegas at his hotel.
00:41:12.700
We've got Seagal Chata and the great David Zier are going to give us coverage tomorrow morning.
00:41:21.860
President Trump's out there for a thank you rally for Nevada.
00:41:24.240
And I've got to tell you, those people deserve it.
00:41:28.520
Real America's Voice is going to be at – Real America's Voice is going to be at the rally tomorrow.
00:41:38.060
We're going to talk about Ukraine, Ben Harno from Rome, which is just absolutely amazing.
00:41:43.340
On Monday, Brian Glenn is going to be in Doral.
00:41:49.700
He's going to be covering the Republican conference.
00:41:51.940
President Trump's giving a keynote there at the Republican conference.
00:41:55.360
They're going to try to come together on the reconciliations bills, the tax bills, et cetera.
00:42:10.940
Ralph's is a big grocery store change in Southern California.
00:42:18.160
This is one of the famous ones in – because it's not a high-end.
00:42:22.900
But Ralph's is kind of – I don't want to say down and dirty, but like an AP or Safeway.
00:42:28.180
But it's beloved in the Palisades, burned to the ground.
00:42:31.640
The whole area in this little village right here, which were coffee shops and boutiques, gone, completely consumed by fire.
00:42:38.820
They had the 100-year-old building that they had, the Starbucks in the lobby.
00:42:43.660
The Starbucks is one of those famous Starbucks around, gone, completely gone.
00:42:48.760
And President Trump's going to ask a couple of three questions.
00:42:56.100
This happened because the power lines weren't cut off?
00:43:09.400
The fire department made big demands of Mayor Bass and saying, hey, you're making such cuts.
00:43:15.940
Bass, the mayor, was in Ghana at the time, and she knew there were high winds.
00:43:19.900
There had been warnings a couple of days before.
00:43:23.180
The, um, so it was, there are so many unanswered questions.
00:43:26.520
So very differently than the trip to South, to North Carolina today is the one to California
00:43:32.180
where President Trump, and I will tell you politically, I think these guys are on the
00:43:36.820
cusp of, uh, this could be the red pill situation because I think a lot of people have been progressive
00:43:45.260
President Trump calls this a revolution of common sense.
00:43:47.740
President Trump is shutting down every DEI program and, and, and everything in the country,
00:43:53.740
They're running around trying, they're running around trying to, they're running around trying
00:43:56.880
to change the names of DEI now to be, you know, like occupational education, things like
00:44:03.760
President Trump's not going to be thwarted in this.
00:44:06.200
President Trump has as great a command of this government as anybody since FDR.
00:44:11.680
I've never seen, I know President Trump very well.
00:44:16.100
I can tell you, he is at another level right now.
00:44:19.240
And the world leaders respect him, fear him, holy man, he is just on a roll.
00:44:25.260
The performance today, what he did today in North Carolina, Ben Berkman was out there
00:44:31.980
They felt they had been abandoned and they had been abandoned.
00:44:36.640
And look, in the first four days of President Trump's, uh, second term, just extraordinary.
00:44:42.680
On the, uh, on the fifth day, really four and a half.
00:44:45.200
He only had a half a day to work on, uh, Monday.
00:44:47.480
Short commercial break, we're going to be back in the war room, live coverage from Los
00:44:52.120
I want to warn you of a huge change that could be coming to our money and our bank accounts.
00:44:57.380
First, think back to 9-11, shortly after the government pushed through the Patriot Act.
00:45:01.900
This gave the government power to spy on innocent Americans by monitoring our phone and email
00:45:10.240
Now, Jim Rickards, editor of the independent financial newsletter, Strategic Intelligence,
00:45:14.700
and New York Times bestselling author, is warning about a coming event that could elevate this
00:45:20.420
governmental surveillance to a terrifying new level.
00:45:23.080
In fact, some of the guests I've had on the war room believe that the government will
00:45:27.280
soon expand their powers to track our every move.
00:45:31.100
If we say the wrong things on social media, donate to the wrong causes, buy firearms, or even
00:45:36.880
vote MAGA, the government may be able to shut us out of our bank accounts.
00:45:41.200
I can't say for sure if this will happen, but it's an interesting and dire warning.
00:45:47.420
Fortunately, Jim Rickards, an American patriot and friend of mine, has made it his mission
00:45:51.500
to educate us on what he believes is coming and how to protect yourself from the possibility
00:45:59.920
Watch Jim's warning video now before it's censored like I've been in the past.

That's RickardsWarRoom.com now to see the video.

Rickard Human, really trying to fill this gap of quality supplements, and of course, the

For those who don't know, beef liver is loaded with highly bioavailable ingredients such as
00:46:29.020
And because it is 100% grass-fed and natural, your body is able to absorb these nutrients
00:46:34.900
far better than taking any other synthetic multivitamin or any other synthetic vitamin
