Episode 2077: Trump Has The Tapes - Video Of Entire Raid Kept By President; The Nuclear Lie⧸A nothingburger; The Coming Eviction⧸Foreclosure Tsunami; Grassley Goes After FBI
On today's show, Joe Scarborough talks about the raid on an ex-president's home, and why it's time to look at the facts again. Plus, Mika and Sarah take down the McCain/Cheney dynasty and compare it to the cartel war in Mexico.
00:31:19.400Kelly, what everybody wants to know is where do we stand in putting?
00:31:24.240Now, we took we got Carrie Lake knocked out the McCain dynasty.
00:31:29.420Hageman is on the verge of knocking out the Cheney dynasty.
00:31:32.940You are on the verge of knocking out the Murkowski dynasty.
00:31:35.620These are three old bull families that have run the Republican Party for many, many decades.
00:31:42.500Tell us how the campaign's going and where are you going today on the last day of campaigning?
00:31:47.960Steve, it is so exciting to be with you.
00:31:50.180And the feeling on the ground up here in Alaska is absolutely electric.
00:31:54.060I'm hitting five to ten communities a week, and we are just blasting through the finish line up here on the race to the primary, which for us is more like a free poll because the first four people who get the most votes will go on.
00:32:08.980And so I'm confident that Lisa Murkowski and I will be in the general election.
00:32:13.020I think I'm going to be in five different communities between Friday and Tuesday before the election.
00:32:18.860Today alone, I will be in Nikiski, Soldatna, Kenai, and Seward just in one day.
00:32:25.400And then tomorrow in Anchorage before Tuesdays.
00:33:32.900People are very concerned that because Murkowski and the Democrats put this weird set of rules up there in Alaska, there's some way that could actually impact your victory.
00:33:43.140Can you just walk us through what's the rules up there, and where do you stand in regards to these funky rules where you can vote for, like, nine different people in 15 different ratings?
00:33:53.560Well, we know Project Veritas exposed undercover video last week where Murkowski got her hand caught in the cookie jar of deceiving and manipulating our election system so she'd have some kind of fighting chance of keeping her Senate seat.
00:34:08.820If they hadn't done that, her career would be over tomorrow.
00:34:11.520But she did, so she's got some sort of effort to try and hang on.
00:34:17.000But the fact is, see, she's only going to be able to survive the primary.
00:34:20.760What this does is it gets rid of party primaries, and Murkowski knew that she would never survive a party primary.
00:34:27.620So this means four people will proceed from the primary to the general, and it could even be four people who call themselves Republicans.
00:34:35.320But that means we have to duke it out in the general.
00:34:37.720So she just gets to hang on to her Senate seat for three more months, and she's trying to preserve this, you know, 41-year Murkowski monarchy, and that's all they're trying to do, keep somebody with Murkowski in the Senate seat.
00:34:51.140But the Alaskan knows that the Senate seat doesn't belong to a family heirloom.
00:34:55.600It belongs to Alaskans, and we're tired of someone who keeps voting with Joe Biden, holding on to our Senate seat and harming us.
00:35:02.000What happens in November is if you don't cross 50% on round one, then the fourth person drops off.
00:35:09.940People who rank two, three, and four candidates under them, those votes go to the first, second, and third candidates.
00:35:19.080People who rank two, three, and four under them go to the top two.
00:35:22.120I know that this sounds confusing, but this is what it really means.
00:35:25.560Lisa Murkowski's never gotten more than 50% of the vote in Alaska.
00:35:28.980That means that most of Alaska's never liked Lisa Murkowski, and right now her approval rating is as low as Joe Biden in the city of Anchorage, which is about half the population of the state.
00:35:39.660And so you've got to really work for that in a state where we voted for President Trump twice by double digits, and I don't think anybody's made more President Trump fans than Joe Biden.
00:35:48.640So right now I think Lisa Murkowski is going to have a really hard time crawling her way to a victory with second, third, and fourth place votes from other candidates.
00:35:56.040And we can see that on the ground here in Alaska.
00:35:59.300Everybody's saying it's time for a change, even registered Democrats.
00:36:02.980And in a state where we really value our Second Amendment, and she just voted for red flag laws and automatic criminal investigations, if you wrongly get flagged when you're trying to buy a gun, I think she's going to have a really hard time convincing people to vote for her.
00:36:15.820Kelly, one more time, where are you going to be today, and how can people get to follow you on social media and your campaign website to keep up with all the breaking developments?
00:36:26.000Today I'm going to be in Soldatna, waving flags or waving signs and saying hi to people.
00:36:32.960I'll be up in Seward, saying hi to people at the Seward Salmon Derby if you're going to be out there.
00:36:38.420I'll be up in Anchorage tomorrow at all different kinds of precincts and down at the campaign headquarters for the party.
00:36:46.180You can follow us at kelly4ak.com, K-E-L-L-Y-F-O-R-A-K.com, and on social media, kelly4alaska on different sites, wherever your social media preference is.
00:36:58.980Well, Kelly, the War Room actually loves you and they have your back, so you go back to work, and we'll make sure everybody piles in there today and maybe hits you with a donation.
00:37:21.200These western states in Arizona and Wyoming and Alaska are all about to fall.
00:37:25.400The one in Arizona already crushed underneath the really Kerry Lake and Mark Fincham, Abe Hamaday, Blake Masters, and this kind of amazing come-from-nowhere victory last week with no money.
00:37:38.780Guys, you know, Blake, I think, won by 13 points.
00:37:41.080Kelly, I think, in a five or six points.
00:38:10.100But you heard the information about the nuclear being all a lie now in spin, and you heard about actually being footage when they tried to get him to shut down the cameras and they refused to do it.
00:38:21.820Give us your current assessment of the DOJ versus the president in this Mar-a-Lago situation, sir.
00:38:28.400The more we learn about the Biden Justice Department's raid on President Trump, this unprecedented, unnecessary and unlawful raid, the more we are learning that it was a political charade to get Trump.
00:38:43.360And we saw this. We saw when they got the initial blowback, there was a senior Justice Department official who leaked to Newsweek that Attorney General Merrick Garland did not approve this raid.
00:38:58.660Well, then he had to admit that he did approve this raid.
00:39:01.620And then they tried to make this raid look more necessary by saying that President Trump took the nuke codes or something like that.
00:39:09.560Like he broke into the nuclear football, took the codes.
00:39:13.420The Biden White House didn't realize the codes were missing for 18 months.
00:39:17.540They didn't replace the codes from Trump to Biden.
00:39:19.700And somehow Trump tricked Biden's secretary of defense to go along with verifying these codes like Trump was going to launch the nukes from Mar-a-Lago.
00:39:34.900And I published a piece in Newsweek this morning laying this out here.
00:39:39.040And I'm calling for the House Republicans in January to impeach Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Chris Wray.
00:39:46.920They have violated their oaths by politicizing the Justice Department, by weaponizing the Justice Department.
00:39:54.420They're willing to ignore, they're willing to give amnesty to President Biden supporters, but they will sick the FBI after every person who trespassed on January 6th.
00:40:06.840Parents who are, who are, who are showing up to lawful public, public school board meetings in Loudoun County.
00:40:14.900At the same time, they'll actually, they'll, they're going to go after Trump's senior advisors that were rightfully asserting executive privilege, something we've had constitutional executive privilege going back to George Washington.
00:40:28.040They've gone after Trump's White House chief of staff, Mark Meadows.
00:40:31.840They got gone after his senior advisor, you, Steve.
00:40:34.760They've gone after Peter Navarro, his trade director.
00:40:37.940They've even gone after his White House counsel.
00:40:41.420So they went from his supporters on January 6th to his senior aides to now him.
00:40:46.180And this is, you know, they, they tried to talk about this idea of democracy, like they're trying to save democracy.
00:40:52.360They're trying to save democracy by trying to eliminate a presidential contender against their boss, President Trump.
00:40:59.040This is unacceptable banana republic, third world crap that we're getting out of the Biden Justice Department and Attorney General Merrick Garland.
00:41:07.020And there needs to be political consequences.
00:41:08.760I want to make sure that we get the Mike's Newsweek column up everywhere, put it in all the different forums and chat rooms right now.
00:41:17.740Mike, also your former boss, Chuck Grassley.
00:41:21.420Chuck Grassley is starting to sound like Warburg.
00:41:24.420I mean, talk to us about Grassley over the weekend.
00:41:26.400He's saying, hey, when we take over in the Senate, we got to have immediate investigation.
00:41:31.520I've never seen Grassley worked up as much on a topic as I've seen him worked up on this, sir.
00:41:36.720Well, as President George W. Bush would say, don't mis-underestimate Chuck Grassley, my former boss of Iowa.
00:41:45.160This guy has long had a problem with the FBI.
00:41:48.060He's known that the FBI has been rotten to the core for decades, right, back to Ruby Ridge and other, you know, other scandals with the FBI.
00:41:56.460And he's going to, when he takes over as the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman, Chuck Grassley is the best oversight guy we've ever had in Congress.
00:42:06.800He's the one who exposed the Russian collusion hoax and scandal.
00:42:11.560He's going to get to the bottom of this.
00:42:12.900There are going to be heads that roll after Chuck Grassley's died.
00:42:15.280What would you recommend to happen right now?
00:42:19.820We obviously have to take over for investigations, but what would you recommend?
00:42:23.160President Trump, I don't think they've done enough of putting out how the nuclear thing's a hoax.
00:42:31.440If you had President Trump's ear, what would you recommend on the videotapes?
00:42:34.780He needs to get all this information out there because it's good for him.
00:42:37.560He needs to be demanding that we have the Biden Justice Department, Attorney General Merrick Garland, selectively leaking grand jury material.
00:42:47.960They're selectively leaking from this affidavit.
00:42:50.640President Trump needs to demand that they release this affidavit because you're going to see from this affidavit, this is a phishing expedition, a political phishing expedition.
00:43:00.260And it's just completely bogus that they had to do a home raid of a former president to get cooperation.
00:43:07.080We've had disputes between former presidents and the bureaucrats at the National Archives for decades since the 70s when they came up with a presidential record.
00:43:18.780This should have been resolved through negotiation and civil lawsuits and subpoenas.
00:43:23.400That's going nuclear with a criminal home raid of a former president.
00:43:28.840Mike, give us your social media and the website.
00:43:31.140Sure, it's article3project.org and it's at article3project.getter and Twitter and Truth.
00:43:39.820And then my personal is M-R-D-E-M-I-N.
00:45:12.060Steve, you've done this amazing job, and I know you've been contacted by hedge fund guys I have, of getting down to the reality of the American economy among working people.
00:45:28.580But there's an African-American guy that's, I think, walking around a gas station, and he gives the best three-minute assessment of the Biden economy from the perspective of the working poor.
00:45:39.640And everybody should go to getter and just see that.
00:45:41.940But while he's given an emotional, but tied to basically how their lived experience, Cortez has gone through and talked about repos.
00:45:51.200I know now you're going to talk about, you know, foreclosures, behind on rents.
00:45:55.820But then you tie it to this number that came out today with the collapse of manufacturing, the whole thing Peter Novartos.
00:46:20.820Steve Bannon, you don't do propaganda, and neither do I.
00:46:23.200Let's look at the actual economic reality on the ground, particularly as it pertains to working-class Americans, something that the corporate media either chooses to ignore or just doesn't understand at all because they prioritize narrative over actual facts.
00:47:21.780I want to tell why the Empire, because you tell about these indices people haven't heard of, particularly the citizens out there, and that may be not in business, but they love them because now they feel like it's inside baseball.
00:47:32.840Tell my important Empire Manufacturing was important.
00:47:47.000And how could you have this massive miss?
00:47:49.660Well, listen, and by the way, these kinds of misses are becoming regular now.
00:47:53.640It didn't used to happen on Wall Street because some of the smartest people, you know, literally in America are paid gobs of money, right, to figure out essentially where these numbers should come out,
00:48:02.680where earnings on a company like Walmart that typically was very predictable in the past, no longer predictable now,
00:48:08.160where the New York Manufacturing Index is going to come out, no longer predictable.
00:48:12.400Even CEOs, even PhDs cannot figure out where they're, why?
00:48:17.300Well, because we're in such a volatile and unprecedented new period in two ways.
00:48:21.120Number one, we have runaway inflation right now, the kind of which we haven't had since the 1970s.
00:48:26.240But, Steve, we're in a worse place than the 1970s, so we really can't even use that as an analog.
00:48:32.080Well, because we are so tied and dependent upon China for sourcing our materials.
00:48:36.800And right now, we have something we have not experienced yet in all of American history.
00:48:41.240We have the United States and China, the number one and number two economies in the world, which unfortunately, again, are deeply intertwined.
00:48:47.880We wish that they weren't, but that's the reality.
00:48:49.940For the first time since China emerged as a major economic power in the world 20 years ago,
00:48:55.180when the Clintons and the Bushes ushered them in, welcomed them into the WTO on terms that were incredibly generous to the CCP and were punishing to American workers.
00:49:04.840Since that time, Steve, we have not seen the U.S. and China go into the economic ditch, go into a recession simultaneously.
00:49:12.640It has never happened in concert before.
00:50:27.240No one in corporate media wants to talk about this.
00:50:29.120I've got the numbers to show you why this crisis is deepening and why it is unfortunately imminent.
00:50:34.860I want to give you runway in the next segment to do that.
00:50:38.680I've also got Dr. Peter Navarro has got his own analysis.
00:50:42.240He's also got some breaking news of Wyoming about Cheney.
00:50:45.960I want to say, Steve Cortez, remember, we had the Boston Globe analysis of that report off of businesses that had not made rent.
00:50:54.200Now you've got the then you've got the repos of repossessing the cars.
00:50:59.160Now you've got people about to miss their own person, not their small business rent, about to miss their own rent or miss their mortgages enough.
00:51:07.920You could actually have their houses repossessed.
00:51:10.540We're going to take a short commercial break.
00:51:12.760Steve Cortez is going to walk us through the truth of the economy in illegitimate Biden regimes.
