Transcript

00:00:01.000 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
00:00:06.000 Pray for our enemies.
00:00:08.000 Because we're going medieval on these people.
00:00:11.000 I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
00:00:15.000 The people have had a belly full of it.
00:00:17.000 I know you don't like hearing that.
00:00:19.000 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that,
00:00:21.000 but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.
00:00:23.000 And where do people like that go to share the big line?
00:00:26.000 MAGA Media.
00:00:28.000 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:00:33.000 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:00:37.000 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:00:43.000 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:00:47.000 A little bit, it's more brought up, you know, these wedge issues, these red hot social issues.
00:00:59.000 Let's just talk about how political pundits like me and others have gotten things wrong for 20, 25 years.
00:01:09.000 Because what you hear time and again is, oh, the Democratic Party too far left on social issues.
00:01:16.000 Take abortion. Take guns. Take all. It scares people in middle America. It scares.
00:01:22.000 Well, now we have we have proof. We got proof that the dog caught the car and it was an ugly sight.
00:01:32.000 Right. 50 years fighting to take away the right to choose for women.
00:01:37.000 They got their wish and it just completely politically blew up in their faces.
00:01:43.000 You look at guns. We all hear that guns.
00:01:46.000 You can't talk about guns because you're going to lose voters in this state and that state.
00:01:50.000 Man, the polls overwhelmingly show support for universal background checks and other things.
00:01:59.000 I just I think we all get it.
00:02:02.000 Not all of us, but I think a lot of us got it wrong through the southern border.
00:02:06.000 They talk about the southern border every two years.
00:02:08.000 They lose elections every two years.
00:02:11.000 American voters obviously aren't as scared of these things as Republicans think they are.
00:02:16.000 Well, Jeff, you remember 1994, Senator Biden, President Clinton passed the assault weapons ban and we won an election in 1996.
00:02:25.000 All right. The country you couldn't have assault weapons country for 10 years.
00:02:29.000 People aren't even went to gun clubs on this.
00:02:31.000 This trans stuff.
00:02:33.000 The governor of Utah is my hero.
00:02:35.000 They passed a law to Utah legislature about trans people participating in high school sports.
00:02:40.000 He says, look, there's 60,000 kids in Utah that play high school sports.
00:02:45.000 Four of them are trans. Let the athletic association figure it out.
00:02:49.000 That's not a problem for the legislature.
00:02:51.000 And they just keep bringing this cultural stuff up.
00:02:56.000 And when you stop to think about it, it only makes no sense.
00:02:59.000 And the one thing they can do that they promise to do.
00:03:01.000 And you would be into this on your record in Congress.
00:03:04.000 They promise to produce a budget.
00:03:05.000 Well, let's see it.
00:03:07.000 Let's look at the budget.
00:03:08.000 Let's look at the budget.
00:03:09.000 How do you negotiate with somebody?
00:03:12.000 How do you negotiate with somebody that doesn't give you a number?
00:03:14.000 How do you negotiate with somebody that doesn't show your budget?
00:03:16.000 They say, oh, we want we want to cut stuff, but we're not going to tell you what we want to cut.
00:03:21.000 Right.
00:03:22.000 And the president said, I will negotiate the budget and not not that extension.
00:03:29.000 And they have not.
00:03:31.000 And I promise you, they will not produce a budget.
00:03:34.000 They said they would.
00:03:35.000 But what is that?
00:03:36.000 What difference does that make?
00:03:37.000 Let's see your budget.
00:03:38.000 And then we see what you got.
00:03:40.000 And you show me yours and I'll show you mine.
00:03:42.000 I mean, that's just the way of the world.
00:03:45.000 Yeah.
00:03:46.000 You know, and I think, again, you talk about budgets.
00:03:48.000 That's something that matters.
00:03:49.000 That's where parties show their priorities.
00:03:51.000 They're not going to do it.
00:03:52.000 And by the way, I'm so glad James brought up the Utah issue on on trans athletes,
00:03:58.000 because it was such a huge deal out there.
00:04:00.000 There was a big explosion of it.
00:04:02.000 And this Republican bottom line is that the FBI had the Biden crime family laptop for a year.
00:04:08.000 They knew it was leaking.
00:04:10.000 They knew it would hurt the Biden campaign.
00:04:14.000 So the FBI used its relationship with Twitter to suppress criminal evidence being revealed about Joe Biden one month before the 2020 election.
00:04:26.000 You, ladies and gentlemen, interfered with the United States of America 2020 presidential election knowingly and willingly.
00:04:35.000 That's the bad news is going to get worse because this is the investigation part.
00:04:40.000 Later comes the arrest part.
00:04:44.000 Your attorneys are familiar with that.
00:04:46.000 Mr. Chairman, I'd like to spend five hours with these ladies and gentlemen doing depositions surely yet to come.
00:04:53.000 But for right now, I yield the balance of my time to my colleague, Mr. George.
00:05:00.000 OK, Sheriff Higgins there, Congressman Higgins from Louisiana laying down the law.
00:05:05.000 Want to start with that Thursday, 9 February year of early 2023.
00:05:08.000 A very big give right there on Morning Joe.
00:05:13.000 And this ties back to Russ Vogt also ties back a little bit to my comments with Lou Dobbs yesterday about Sir Huckabee.
00:05:19.000 This is the the the thing itself is not.
00:05:24.000 Is not and don't get me wrong.
00:05:27.000 The woke part of this is quite important in the cultural part are quite important.
00:05:32.000 But to get to the core of it, you have to get to the money and you have to get to the power.
00:05:38.000 OK, you have to get to the money and you have to get to the power.
00:05:41.000 Remember, we had Russ Vogt on here yesterday and Russ was very upfront that, hey, we have the appropriations process, regular order.
00:05:49.000 That's where these cuts are going to come. Dramatic cuts in year one.
00:05:52.000 That's all working through the system.
00:05:54.000 Once you get that emotion and pass that, that is that is a that is the then you do the debt ceiling.
00:06:03.000 And remember, Biden's been I'm not even there's no negotiation.
00:06:07.000 It's a clear that it's a clean lift on the debt ceiling with no negotiations right there.
00:06:13.000 Morning Joe and Carville seed us the ground on the and they talk about the budget.
00:06:18.000 The budget, the budget's irrelevant. The budget doesn't mean anything.
00:06:20.000 The budget process is irrelevant.
00:06:22.000 It's the appropriations that comes off of that.
00:06:25.000 And we keep talking about model.
00:06:27.000 They have to show us their financial model.
00:06:30.000 My point, we are winning this hour by hour and day by day to get to the objective.
00:06:36.000 And the objective is to get absolute total control of this administrative state by choking off the money that allows the woke and weaponized federal Leviathan.
00:06:50.000 It's not a bureaucracy. That's old school.
00:06:52.000 As I call it, the swamp, the Leviathan to to basically strangle out the life of the American people.
00:07:00.000 Very honored. We got a lot to get to today and a lot of folks coming in.
00:07:03.000 It's going to be intense. But remember, this appropriation right there, the yammering on, yammering on, yammering on.
00:07:09.000 They even understand now. They're saying, hey, it's got to be a negotiation.
00:07:12.000 You show you got to show. Hey, we all remember inch by inch, shift the Overton window, make them come to our side.
00:07:19.000 Russ votes the architect of this. And there's a program. There's a seven year and there's a 10 year.
00:07:24.000 We had Ralph Norman on. He's a seven year guy, seven year to balance budget.
00:07:28.000 And there's the 10 year. And there's no touching Social Security and Medicare.
00:07:33.000 This is what I wanted on the rebuttal. You only get a certain amount of time when you got the nation's attention.
00:07:38.000 I wanted the rebuttal to get into the hard part of the economy and the hard part of the money.
00:07:45.000 Steve Cortez is going to be on in a moment. We're going through some polling.
00:07:49.000 American people get it there. They're totally depressed because they're getting crushed, as we show you every day.
00:07:54.000 It's the depression for working class people in this country.
00:07:56.000 And all the happy talk he puts out there is not going to change that.
00:07:59.000 Although he lifts the other way, you know, we're winning is that they took the whole America first MAGA economic policy.
00:08:07.000 He did three and a half minute rift that's literally lifted from the pages of Trump.
00:08:11.000 Now, he represents the corporate part of the Democratic Party.
00:08:15.000 He's the senator from Delaware for remember, Delaware is a mail drop in an easy federal court for the corporations.
00:08:22.000 That's what the headquarters of so many of these corporations.
00:08:25.000 That's Joe Biden's represented that for 40 some years.
00:08:28.000 So he's not a no Joe from Scranton has never pushed manufacturing jobs.
00:08:32.000 He's kowtows to the CCP.
00:08:34.000 Also, CNN broke big news.
00:08:36.000 And we saw it yesterday that Heinz of Connecticut came on the Wolf Blitz or so and kind of said, oh, yeah, you know, I had a gang of eight.
00:08:44.000 And he says, hey, is the gang of eight been briefed on the on the balloon as we've been harping on?
00:08:49.000 He goes, we're not really.
00:08:50.000 He says, I was there with the chairman.
00:08:51.000 He's the minority on the on the on the house intelligence.
00:08:56.000 He says, but we got kind of an informal briefing.
00:08:58.000 CNN put it up.
00:08:59.000 There's all kind of questions.
00:09:00.000 I keep telling you, drive into the ground the 28th of January.
00:09:04.000 Now they're saying as it came across the Aleutian Islands, they picked it up.
00:09:07.000 Where did you hear this first right here earlier than the 28th?
00:09:11.000 And guess what?
00:09:13.000 Supposedly nobody told the White House, which is a lie.
00:09:16.000 And we'll find that's a lie as it traipsed over Alaska and took a hard right because it has a rudder and can steer itself.
00:09:23.000 It doesn't drift with the wind.
00:09:25.000 It started coming down.
00:09:27.000 That's when they notified the White House.
00:09:29.000 That is a lie.
00:09:30.000 And we got to get to the bottom.
00:09:31.000 They still have not had a full and official briefing of the gang of eight, which the people on the hill from the church committee in the 70s that had these high security clearances, all the leadership in the in the intelligence community, the House and Senate intelligence community, the select committees on Intel that have this clearances have not been briefed yet.
00:09:51.000 Why?
00:09:52.000 They can't get their story straight.
00:09:53.000 They can't get their story straight.
00:09:55.000 But here's the good news.
00:09:58.000 It's a good day in the neighborhood, baby.
00:10:01.000 I'm going to bring in Natalie.
00:10:02.000 One is the New York Times.
00:10:04.000 This morning, the New York Times, the paper of record of our beloved republic has deemed your show war room number one in the nation as far as correct information about what reality is.
00:10:21.000 Number one.
00:10:22.000 Number one.
00:10:23.000 Number one.
00:10:24.000 And by the way, Brookings Institute, the CCP, the CCP owned and operated Brookings Institute did a study.
00:10:30.000 Right.
00:10:31.000 And they've they've deemed, by the way, put the headline up.
00:10:34.000 I'm going to bring in Natalie.
00:10:36.000 They said 20 percent of our podcast or 20 percent have misinformation, according to misinformation about the VACs, about Ukraine, about, you know, all.
00:10:48.000 And I immediately jumped on Natalie.
00:10:51.000 I said, Natalie, you were hired to take care of this problem.
00:10:54.000 It's supposed to be 100 percent.
00:10:55.000 How are we slackers at 20?
00:10:58.000 Hold it.
00:10:59.000 Number one.
00:11:00.000 And hang on.
00:11:01.000 We got number two is Charlie Kirk.
00:11:03.000 Number three is Rush Limbaugh.
00:11:06.000 And now the new team that replaced Rush when he passed away, which is Clay Travis and the great Buck Sexton.
00:11:13.000 They're number three.
00:11:14.000 And then it kind of goes down from there.
00:11:16.000 It's got Daniel Horwitz on there.
00:11:17.000 It's got Levin.
00:11:18.000 It's got Hannity.
00:11:19.000 It's got, you know, as it traipsed down there, the top 10, I think.
00:11:22.000 And like I said about about Charlie Kirk and Posobiec at the Charlie Kirk show and, of course, Buck and Clay that are the replacements for it for picked up Russia's mantle to do his noon to three show.
00:11:34.000 Don't send boys to do a man's job.
00:11:36.000 OK, War Room will always be number one as far as accurate information about reality.
00:11:41.000 OK, not the New York Times and the Brookings Institute of Reality.
00:11:46.000 Here's what they were most upset about.
00:11:48.000 And I want everybody to read this article.
00:11:50.000 We're going to put it up and not just that.
00:11:53.000 Please share it everywhere.
00:11:54.000 We're very proud of this.
00:11:56.000 They have the woman, Natalie, that does the and I'll let you jump in here.
00:12:00.000 They have the woman that does this.
00:12:01.000 And she and she has a quote.
00:12:03.000 She's clutching her pearls.
00:12:05.000 And she says, and I quote, Mr.
00:12:08.000 Bannon leaves listeners with the clear impression that officials and institutions are, quote, totally lying to you, unquote.
00:12:18.000 And that's the tagline for this show, whether it's the defense.
00:12:22.000 I don't know it.
00:12:23.000 This is so absurd.
00:12:24.000 We so love it so much.
00:12:26.000 Natalie, talk to us about your thoughts as an executive editor.
00:12:29.000 Ma'am, you got a couple of good quotes in there.
00:12:31.000 Sure.
00:12:32.000 Well, it was so funny when I was speaking to the author who wrote that piece, journalist Stuart Thompson from The New York Times, he said to me on the phone, he said, well, it seems like the impression that you leave all your viewers with is that the institution, the powers that be are lying to them.
00:12:47.000 And I think he thought he sort of had a gotcha moment.
00:12:50.000 But I started laughing because I was like, have you ever watched War Room before?
00:12:55.000 We're pretty forthright that that is our worldview defined for us by you.
00:13:00.000 You know, I know Media Matters is on our on our payroll.
00:13:04.000 They do PR for us.
00:13:05.000 But I think we should have The New York Times to that list.
00:13:08.000 Stuart Thompson is Madeline Peltz's newest colleague.
00:13:11.000 But what really I think is so amazing about this piece is it shows you not only how scared they are of us, right, because the specific issues that they focus on are election fraud, COVID-19 origins, COVID-19 treatments, which also just I'm sure pure coincidence happens to be the main issues that all the federal government agencies have been colluding to censor about.
00:13:34.000 But I think it really shows you that we have been right. Right. A lot of our predictions and I think analysis into these these topics, these themes, while they maybe started out as being dismissed as conspiracy theories, you know, six, 12 months later, outlets like The New York Times are ultimately forced to accept them as the truth.
00:13:55.680 And I think what's so interesting, too, about all of this, the fact that it's, of course, coming from the Brookings Institution, I sort of tried to explain, you know, get into detail with Stuart on the phone and explain that maybe you want to call it, you know, the institutions are lying to us.
00:14:11.220 I think at War Room, it's more that the powers that be are not disclosing their conflicts of interest, right, whether it be with Big Pharma, whether it be with the Chinese Communist Party.
00:14:22.520 And frankly, the Brookings Institution is a perfect example of that. I mean, I'm pretty sure it was just June of last year that their president had to resign because he didn't disclose that he was lobbying on behalf of Qatar while taking money from the Chinese Communist Party.
00:14:35.720 Hang on one second. We're gonna get that. We got Steve Cortez. We have Congressman Klein from the Judiciary Committee. Big breaking news. Berenson's got a report up on Fauci and covid and the vaccine.
00:14:50.280 All of it. Dr. Malone's gonna hear break it all down with more misinformation. Number one at The New York Times. Back in a moment.
00:14:58.780 Despite the U.S. blowing through thirty one point four trillion dollar debt ceiling in January, the leftist White House still refuses to reduce spending while our national leadership has buried their heads in the sand.
00:15:11.740 When it comes to fiscal responsibility, it's time to pull yours out. Think about this.
00:15:18.520 To dig our country out of this mountain of debt, every single taxpayer in America would have to write a check for two hundred and forty seven thousand dollars.
00:15:27.800 And it's only going to get worse. Now would be a great time to diversify in the gold with Birch Gold in times of high uncertainty and instability.
00:15:37.160 Gold is king because it's dependable.

00:17:33.680 And then Brett Weinstein's Dark Horse podcast is number five.
00:17:37.840 So shout out to Rab for having two shows in the top five.
00:17:41.980 I was going to say, hey, really, Rob Sieg, baby, from 10 from 10 to two.
00:17:47.240 You get four hours.
00:17:48.420 And then they throw in Posobiec.
00:17:49.700 They throw they give you a kicker of a war room in the afternoon and give it for a for a for a, you know, a dessert.
00:17:56.800 Right.
00:17:57.200 They give you a Posobiec at 10 o'clock.
00:17:59.420 Just it's just a font of misinformation.
00:18:01.260 We're very proud of this.
00:18:04.160 And particularly I've been my phone's been blown up because people say, how can you say how can she say impression?
00:18:09.480 It's like, you know, it's it's it's it's branded in people's minds.
00:18:14.940 No, we do not trust institutions.
00:18:17.240 We don't trust the institutions and we don't trust the media.
00:18:21.160 And by the way, the gal is Cortez and I'll be here in a moment.
00:18:23.960 Talk about Gallup polling.
00:18:25.140 They show the media is at nine percent.
00:18:27.180 Right.
00:18:27.760 You know, the the the churches are at like 12 percent.
00:18:31.680 The only thing it makes is the military.
00:18:33.380 And that's starting to drop because how woke it's getting.
00:18:35.520 So the institutions have to be purged, cleansed and rebuilt.
00:18:40.180 OK, off this wokeism and this anti-Americanism, what they're trying to do to the American people.
00:18:45.300 We are proud, proud to be the tip of the spear of that.
00:18:49.100 And this is what gets us up every day and gets us to work to get put four hours of this show up every day.
00:18:55.000 And, Natalie, what you do on the Web site and everything is just fantastic.
00:18:59.700 Natalie, a great work here.
00:19:01.720 And I want to make sure this thing gets pushed.
00:19:03.740 Now, today at 12, the weaponization of government to talk about trust of institution, trust in institutions.
00:19:11.100 They're going to put the FBI and DOJ.
00:19:13.520 Hey, just saying.
00:19:14.660 Right.
00:19:14.800 Now, this is where we've been hammering on the church commission for years, ever since I was in the White House.
00:19:20.100 It's so out of control and it's finally come to pass after all of our hammering that you had of a church like commission.
00:19:25.500 Today, it starts off the weaponization of government.
00:19:28.680 Jim Jordan chairing.
00:19:30.180 We're going to have a client from judiciary with Jim Jordan.
00:19:33.600 But what's your what's your summary?
00:19:34.800 What's your basic takeaway from what you saw yesterday in the first round of the collusion of the FBI with with big big tech, ma'am?
00:19:42.540 I think our congressmen were really prepared.
00:19:46.700 I mean, look no further than that wonderful chart that Anna Paulina Luna had up detailing all the key players in these secret messaging platforms that Twitter employees were using to communicate with federal agents.
00:19:58.720 And I think the bigger part is the collusion, the convergence, really the assimilation between the intelligence community and these social media platforms.
00:20:08.960 And I think this weaponization hearing is sort of the broader extension of that.
00:20:13.040 Right. These intel agencies, the intel community is not just passively using these social media platforms to push certain agendas.
00:20:21.360 They're actively using them to really, I think, police speech, but more importantly, police thought and really, I think, carry out de facto and de jure political persecution.
00:20:32.980 So that's what we should really be paying attention to today.
00:20:35.700 Specifically, again, the hearing starts at 12 right after war room.
00:20:39.580 I'm sure that was intentional on the timing. So you can go right to the hearing after war room finishes.
00:20:45.860 But the second panel of witnesses is former FBI agents talking specifically about their experiences within the Bureau and how it has been politicized.
00:20:54.500 So I think that's something that people should really pay attention to.
00:20:56.900 OK, we're going to live stream that, too. So we'll have it up in live stream and get to a chat over that.
00:21:02.800 We had twenty seven thousand people in the State of the Union.
00:21:05.500 We went up to over thirty seven thousand, went up to over 40 after the replace.
00:21:09.600 Want to make sure everybody gets in there, get your two cents in there.
00:21:12.080 I'll be on there today. And in I think Grace and Natalie be covering it.
00:21:16.740 But I think Grace and Mo will be running it. Natalie, thank you so much.
00:21:19.600 How do people get to you and follow you, ma'am?
00:21:22.000 Well, thank you for always giving me the chance to spread misinformation.
00:21:24.980 And if you would like to stay up to date on my misinformation, you can go to Natalie G.
00:21:29.520 Winters on all platforms.
00:21:33.000 See, I told your parents when you came here from Chicago, I said she's a rock star and she's only going to go next level.
00:21:39.060 You've already done it. Number one in the nation.
00:21:42.180 Thank you very much, ma'am. Appreciate it.
00:21:45.940 Steve Cortez, Steve, some of the misinformation you've been spreading is that Biden tells me the economy is great.
00:21:52.060 People are loving it. It's the best time to be a working class American.
00:21:56.160 And there's totally focused on middle class America and all of his policies are focused on it.
00:22:01.280 Does the polling does the polling bear that out, sir?
00:22:05.960 No, quite not, Steve.
00:22:07.940 The statistics on the ground, the kitchen table reality as experienced economically by the American people,
00:22:13.440 plus their own personal sentiment, their own personal assessment of their financial situation point to a very dire economic crisis in this country right now.
00:22:23.220 Now, you might not know that if you only pay attention to corporate media.
00:22:26.460 So to connect these two conversations, you know, look at The New York Times, for example.
00:22:30.080 The New York Times, the supposed paper of record, totally disconnected and aloof from the lived reality of Americans who are struggling just to pay their most basic bills.
00:22:40.220 And I think that's true of almost every media maven who only operates in the Acela corridor between Washington, D.C. and New York.
00:22:48.220 They think things are fine. The American people think otherwise.
00:22:50.580 So let's listen. Let's get to the data, because unlike The New York Times, Steve, we believe in evidence and data, not just sloganeering.
00:22:57.100 So if we can go to chart number one, this was a tweet that was actually posted by Katie Britt, who I'm very excited about.
00:23:02.520 I think she's going to be one of the best young, fresh senators in the United States Senate, a total patriotic populist.
00:23:08.600 She's paying a lot of attention to the economy right out of the gate as a new senator.
00:23:11.920 And she posted this tweet with all of the links.
00:23:14.660 I have it up on my social media as well, because, again, we cite things.
00:23:17.460 We give you the evidence. We give you the tables and the data.
00:23:20.240 But this is pretty stunning, Steve.
00:23:21.580 Last year in 2022, over 9 million Americans who previously had savings, who previously had some financial cushion, descended into a place of economic deprivation where they are now living paycheck to paycheck.
00:23:36.660 9.3 million new Americans who are now suddenly living on a knife's edge paycheck to paycheck, in large part because real average weekly workings, earnings,
00:23:49.520 which I've been talking about, of course, for months on this show, have been absolutely crashing.
00:23:54.060 That is the reality right now for Americans in this country.
00:23:56.740 They are getting poorer every single day.
00:23:59.520 And Steve, almost as bad in that study that is linked to by that tweet, almost as bad, Steve, half of people who are making six figures are living paycheck to paycheck in America right now.
00:24:10.440 That's what Joe Biden's inflation has done to the prosperity of regular Americans, half of people who are making six figures,
00:24:16.780 which in a lot of metro areas of the United States now and more expensive locations, with this inflation thrown in, is not a very good wage anymore, believe it or not.
00:24:24.900 And it's hard to get by for folks who live in places like Los Angeles and New York, even if they're making six figures.
00:24:30.580 So what does this result in?
00:24:31.580 Let's go to the Gallup poll, the Axios-Gallup poll, if we can please show that to our chart.
00:24:35.920 Or this results in the majority of the American people, over 50 percent, now saying that they would know that's chart two.
00:24:44.380 If we can, we'll go to that in a moment.
00:24:45.880 If you can, let's put the Axios poll and show that, which is not in the label of a number.
00:24:51.720 The unfortunate reality is the majority of Americans right now say they are worse off than they were one year ago.
00:24:58.880 Steve, this is very much related to last week.
00:25:00.580 I did a chalk talk with an ABC News poll, which asked them, are you worse off than two years ago?
00:25:05.000 That number was already very troubling at 41 percent on that ABC poll.
00:25:09.420 We now get even worse news from the Gallup poll.
00:25:12.340 But the key difference there is it was two years versus one year, which shows you that in the last year, things have intensified in terms of the deepening financial crisis.
00:25:21.160 And now let's please, if we can, let's go to chart two and show that savings rate.
00:25:25.120 So what does this result in?
00:25:26.600 It results in a collapse in the savings rate of the United States.
00:25:29.600 That is the savings rate going back 10 years.
00:25:32.640 You can see that previous to COVID, the savings rate in the United States was pretty steady and in almost all economic environments maintained above 5 percent.
00:25:40.860 If you go back further in history, it was more like 10 percent was the norm, ratcheted lower to about 5 percent, but still stayed healthily above that level in a very consistent way.
00:25:49.380 Now, the savings rate rocketed higher in a very unnatural way during the lockdowns because it was simply hard for people to spend money.
00:25:55.840 That wasn't necessarily a good thing.
00:25:57.340 But the point is, since then, what has happened?
00:25:59.660 The savings rate has collapsed to well below the pre-lockdown levels, hitting 2.4 percent recently, which is the second lowest savings rate ever in American history.
00:26:10.940 So real wages are crashing, savings crashing, credit card debt going up, and despondency spreading economically.
00:26:17.600 Again, not Steve Cortez's opinion, not Steve Bannon's, the reality as lived by the American people, by the data, by the numbers, by the polling.
00:26:26.060 This is perfect.
00:26:28.640 Can we put the Axios up, so I can just see that chart for a second, and we'll go to break with that chart up with Steve and I.
00:26:34.480 This is why they're trying to shut this show down.
00:26:36.960 They don't want anybody to explain the reality of the lived experience of the American economy, and explain to people why it's happening to you and why you continue to work hard.
00:26:47.400 This is not about your efforts and how hard you work.
00:26:50.640 You're now in a system controlled by these oligarchs in the administrative state that you're just like a hamster on the wheel.
00:26:57.960 And in fact, the harder you move the wheel, kind of the farther behind you're getting, okay?
00:27:04.520 And this is causing the angst.
00:27:06.680 Do we have the Axios chart?
00:27:08.820 Can we get that up?
00:27:09.460 Can I put that up again?
00:27:11.220 You see the drop.
00:27:13.180 Yeah, just leave it.
00:27:13.980 Just leave it.
00:27:14.560 I don't need to see Cortez, his beautiful visage.
00:27:18.340 On the Axios chart, I'm going to eventually get there.
00:27:22.280 There we go.
00:27:23.100 On the Axios chart, that huge dive is people feeling better, right?
00:27:28.660 That's in the Trump years.
00:27:30.360 And it really peaks at the bottom because that's the lowest of the angst in what Steve Cortez's theory of the case is the golden year of 2019.
00:27:38.960 And then you have the pandemic and everything's starting to come back.
00:27:42.400 And now you've got – you see, Joe Biden, this is what we have to hammer every day as MAGA, as populist, as nationalist.
00:27:51.920 The controlled opposition Republican Party is not going to do this.
00:27:56.480 You have to hammer this every day because people's lived experience is what's going to move these people more to our side,
00:28:04.640 the folks in the middle or even these moderate Democrats or working-class Democrats.
00:28:08.840 Short commercial break.
00:28:10.280 Steve, hang around.
00:28:11.160 We've got more to get into, okay?
00:28:13.140 And talk about weaponization of government.
00:28:15.160 Now we've got the FBI in my beloved hometown of Richmond, Virginia, looking at Latin mass.
00:28:21.680 Who'd have thunk it?
00:28:22.820 Ben Klein from Virginia next.
00:28:24.240 A lot of people complain about the state of our country or the way woke corporations treat us and their employees.
00:28:31.480 But it's not enough to complain.
00:28:33.220 We need to change the way the marketplace works.

00:29:52.020 Last night, President Biden gave his interpretation of the state of our union.
00:29:57.060 But after hearing his version, one thing's clear.
00:29:59.880 Our president lives in an alternative reality.
00:30:02.680 We all know the problems.
00:30:03.980 Crippling inflation and soaring interest rates, making it harder to save money and do business.
00:30:07.840 An open border with nearly 5 million illegal crossings since this administration took office.
00:30:12.880 A drug and crime crisis harming our communities.
00:30:15.480 And a more dangerous world with feckless leadership out of the White House.
00:30:18.280 From a botched Afghanistan withdrawal to an emboldened CCP.
00:30:22.480 The fact is, Americans know the real state of our union.
00:30:25.460 Every time they buy groceries, put gas in their tanks, can't find baby formula or medications,
00:30:31.020 or lose a loved one to the fentanyl pouring over our border.
00:30:34.180 That's why Americans elected House Republicans last November, to bring change back to Washington.
00:30:38.900 We've already gotten to work by passing legislation to defund 87,000 IRS agents, establish a select
00:30:44.280 committee to compete with China, halt the COVID vaccine mandate for service members, and end
00:30:48.480 the national emergency, fully reopening a capital to the American people.
00:30:51.880 But we are just getting started.
00:30:53.800 And to use the words of President Biden, House Republicans plan to finish the job the right
00:30:58.580 way for the American people.
00:31:02.520 Congressman Klein now joins us, and that's probably the best, what, one-minute summary
00:31:06.640 of think where we stand in the alternate reality.
00:31:09.780 Congressman, first question.
00:31:10.840 You know, Joe Biden's out in Wisconsin yesterday, and he continues this lie about Social Security.
00:31:17.180 You got MSNBC and CNN are plowing into that.
00:31:20.840 How do we get the word out that that's a bald-faced lie?
00:31:24.900 There was never any talk.
00:31:26.640 Kevin McCarthy specifically told him to his face at the White House in the one-hour meeting
00:31:31.920 they're supposed to go so great, according to him, about the debt ceiling that Social Security
00:31:36.420 and Medicare are off the table.
00:31:38.220 And yet you have this alternative reality during the speech itself, which was a lie after lie
00:31:42.740 after lie, and then they continue on.
00:31:45.220 What would be your recommendation on how we counter that, sir?
00:31:47.520 Well, we have to put out a balanced budget that preserves and protects Social Security
00:31:53.420 and Medicare and does not go after those essential programs.
00:31:57.720 So we're going to be targeting the administrative state.
00:32:00.760 We're going to be putting forward a balanced budget from the Republican Study Committee,
00:32:03.740 the largest caucus within the Republican Conference.
00:32:05.940 I'm chair of the Budget Task Force, and we put forward a budget that balances in seven years
00:32:11.560 last year, and we're going to keep it under 10 this year in spite of all of the reckless
00:32:15.640 spending that's coming from Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi.
00:32:20.300 I know you're very close to your constituents out there in one of the most beautiful parts
00:32:23.960 of the country out there in Virginia.
00:32:27.720 Talk to us.
00:32:28.340 What are your constituents telling you after they heard the State of the Union and have heard
00:32:32.380 your rebuttal?
00:32:32.940 Where are their heads right now?
00:32:35.560 Well, they're furious, and so am I, because over the past two years, they've spent a trillion
00:32:41.100 dollar deficits, bumped the debt up to $31 trillion.
00:32:44.960 It's crowding out other important programs.
00:32:48.320 The interest on the debt is really, really starting to impact our ability to budget for this country.
00:32:55.060 And they go to the grocery store, they see eggs at record high prices, they see empty shelves,
00:33:01.100 they go to the gas pump, they see prices higher than they were when Biden took office, they go to
00:33:06.020 their jobs, and they see that real wages aren't keeping up with inflation.
00:33:09.840 So we've got real challenges facing this country.
00:33:12.560 And then they go listen to Joe Biden.
00:33:14.440 He blames everybody else for the problems that his administration created.
00:33:17.700 And then he baits us into responding by saying, oh, you all want to cut Social Security and
00:33:24.000 Medicare.
00:33:24.400 Well, of course, we're going to object in the middle of his speech.
00:33:27.680 He and all of the talking heads on the media say, oh, you're so rude.
00:33:32.800 You're so rude.
00:33:33.380 Well, you know what?
00:33:33.960 When somebody lies to your face, you're going to tell them they're lying to their face.
00:33:37.540 And that's what we did during the State of the Union.
00:33:39.560 I want to bifurcate, you've got, you know, we've got these investigations, you're on
00:33:44.580 Judiciary, and we'll get to that in a second, about your thoughts of the kickoff we had
00:33:48.080 yesterday at Oversight.
00:33:50.680 And then today, we're going to be live streaming.
00:33:52.460 I want all the audience to know the weaponization, the opening round of the weaponization hearings.
00:33:56.820 But on the legislative side, when you look at the problems facing us in your office, when
00:34:02.480 you come in policy, what are the one or two things that you think is the top priority
00:34:06.960 for you that you believe will deliver for your constituents back in your congressional
00:34:12.440 district?
00:34:14.400 Energy independence, start and finish.
00:34:16.640 It flows all the way down from farmers dealing with costs of input costs, fertilizer costs.
00:34:24.100 We've got a big ag district to manufacturing in the district that has to have fuel to engage
00:34:30.820 in manufacturing to the families at the grocery store and at the gas pump.
00:34:34.900 So energy independence is where we need to focus like a laser beam.
00:34:41.640 Got Cortez, he's picked up your thing.
00:34:43.860 It's got to be full spectrum energy dominance again.
00:34:45.920 That's the start.
00:34:46.500 You're 1,000% correct there.
00:34:48.260 Talk to us about Judiciary, because yesterday we had the oversight explosive, right, about
00:34:53.280 the FBI's involvement with social media.
00:34:55.700 Twitter today is going to be explosive.
00:34:57.620 I think we've got Tulsi Gabbard.
00:34:59.200 We have Senator Johnson and Senator Grassley kicking off with their experiences.
00:35:03.260 And then you're going to have some whistleblowers.
00:35:05.460 Talk to me about, you're on Judiciary.
00:35:07.700 Give me your thoughts about the direction of Judiciary under Jim Jordan.
00:35:11.340 Under Jim Jordan's leadership, we are going to be methodical in laying out the evidence
00:35:17.020 for the American people.
00:35:18.520 He's been hearing from whistleblowers over the past year talking about the abuse within
00:35:24.780 the agencies.
00:35:26.040 And so the special subcommittee that we set up on the weaponization of our intelligence
00:35:30.820 agencies is going to be laying out that evidence.
00:35:33.660 Now, when the Department of Justice or when our intelligence agencies don't respond, that's
00:35:37.920 when they bring me in.
00:35:38.880 I'm the chair of this little rump subcommittee called Responsiveness and Accountability to
00:35:44.220 Oversight.
00:35:44.720 And so they want me to haul these people up to the Hill, read them the riot act, and try
00:35:51.580 and convince them that cooperating with the Judiciary Committee is better than the alternative,
00:35:57.080 which is being held in contempt.
00:36:00.800 That's brilliant.
00:36:01.800 Walk us through again the responsibilities for this subcommittee.
00:36:05.480 What is specifically your task and purpose in this?
00:36:08.080 So we need as many tools as possible to ensure compliance by these intelligence agencies, by
00:36:15.260 the DOJ, with the demands for information and testimony from the Committee on the Judiciary.
00:36:22.080 So Jim Jordan wants to bring these people in.
00:36:25.640 But when they don't comply, when they stonewall, as we've seen them do, you can't waste full
00:36:31.080 committee time and resources in hauling them up and just sitting there hour after hour after
00:36:36.920 hour, why won't you give us this document?
00:36:38.740 Why won't you give us this information?
00:36:40.720 So he needs a bulldog at the subcommittee level to make their lives hell, quite frankly.
00:36:47.720 And so he's tasked me with that responsibility.
00:36:50.700 The Democrats see what we're doing.
00:36:52.520 They've put Eric Swalwell on as my ranking Democrat.
00:36:55.740 So they have put one of their bulldogs, as it were, on the subcommittee and tasked him
00:37:03.520 with pushing back and defending the Biden administration.
00:37:05.640 There are going to be fireworks because I've served with Eric Swalwell on judiciary, and
00:37:10.960 we're not going to put up with any of his pushback or stonewalling or alternative reality
00:37:17.960 that the Biden administration is putting forward.
00:37:21.540 This is brilliant.
00:37:22.640 We need bulldogs.
00:37:24.480 How do people, our audience, follow you on social media and at your congressional office?
00:37:29.320 How do they find out more about you, your thoughts about this, and particularly this great
00:37:32.920 work you're going to do in this subcommittee?
00:37:35.420 Well, my website is cline.house.gov.
00:37:38.240 That's C-L-I-N-E.
00:37:40.760 And judiciary.house.gov is the committee website.
00:37:44.520 So go to our websites.
00:37:45.820 We're on Facebook and Twitter.
00:37:47.660 Judiciary Committee is famous on Twitter.
00:37:49.600 They do a great job.
00:37:51.000 And keep following us.
00:37:53.040 And that's how we're going to win this.
00:37:54.620 We're going to make sure that the public is paying attention, and that's how we're going
00:37:58.880 to hold our intelligence agencies accountable, make sure we take out all of this weaponization
00:38:05.900 from the DOJ and from our intelligence agencies and restore it to the American people.
00:38:10.920 And this is, I just want to have your thoughts at the end.
00:38:17.700 You know, the left is, like, this is some sort of star chamber.
00:38:20.980 It's anything but a star chamber.
00:38:22.240 In fact, you've set it up that you've got, you know, a ranking member.
00:38:26.280 It's not like the J-6 thing.
00:38:27.560 It's not like a Moscow show trial.
00:38:29.140 You've got ranking members.
00:38:30.280 You've got minority council.
00:38:32.040 You're playing within the rules.
00:38:33.300 You're not going to let them get away with any nonsense.
00:38:36.000 But this is going to be set up traditionally like it's been set up before, and it's your
00:38:39.720 obligation and duty to pursue this.
00:38:42.080 Is that correct, Congressman?
00:38:44.220 That's right.
00:38:44.820 It's been set up under the Judiciary Committee umbrella because we already have an administrative
00:38:50.400 structure set up in the committee to make it happen quickly.
00:38:55.020 But we've pulled stars from across the House Republican Conference to participate in this
00:39:01.760 select sub.
00:39:02.700 You know, we've got Kelly Armstrong, who's coming over from Commerce Committee, and we've
00:39:08.060 got Matt Gaetz, who is on the Judiciary Committee.
00:39:10.560 You know, these people are going to be locked in on these DOJ officials, making sure that
00:39:15.700 they comply.
00:39:16.500 And when they don't, I'll be waiting.
00:39:21.100 Just, I know you get a bounce, but you're from Virginia.
00:39:24.020 You know, we're going to have later, we're going to discuss, and then this afternoon we're
00:39:27.040 going to have the FBI whistleblower.
00:39:28.180 But even the field office, the FBI is doing reports on the traditional Latin mass group
00:39:34.240 down from the Richmond field office.
00:39:36.460 I mean, Congressman, this is how out of control it's gotten.
00:39:39.040 It's just out of control.
00:39:40.100 So we thank you for being here.
00:39:41.820 We look forward to following this closely.
00:39:43.580 So thank you, sir.
00:39:44.720 Great.
00:39:45.000 Thanks a lot.
00:39:47.760 Congressman Ben Klein from Virginia.
00:39:49.740 Let's go.
00:39:50.200 We've got Anna Polina Luna.
00:39:51.840 Can we play?
00:39:52.320 Can we get a quick cold open for her?
00:39:53.680 Can we play that?
00:39:54.320 Are we ready to go?
00:39:54.960 Let's play the cold open.
00:39:55.820 Let's hit it and bring her in.
00:39:56.680 Mr. Roth, have you communicated with government officials ever on a platform called JIRA?
00:40:04.600 Yes or no?
00:40:07.700 Real quick answer.
00:40:08.620 We're on the clock.
00:40:09.140 Not to the best of my recollection.
00:40:10.500 Not to your recollection?
00:40:11.400 Great.
00:40:12.400 If you did in the event communicate, who would have had access to this platform?
00:40:18.540 That's the nature of my confusion.
00:40:20.420 Okay.
00:40:20.760 Did you ever speak to government officials on JIRA regarding taking down social media posts?
00:40:25.340 Again, not to the best of my recollection.
00:40:27.820 Can you explain to me why the federal government would ever have entered?
00:40:32.380 Anna Polina Luna, you knew her as a candidate.
00:40:34.880 Now you saw yesterday.
00:40:35.760 Ma'am, that was a star turn.
00:40:37.700 We can play it all five minutes.
00:40:40.520 Thank you.
00:40:41.060 I appreciate that.
00:40:42.160 Tell us.
00:40:42.660 I appreciate that.
00:40:43.580 It was spectacular.
00:40:44.620 Tell us about it.
00:40:45.260 So, you know, we've been waiting to bring in some of these executives.
00:40:50.440 Elon actually came in, and I believe that he actually had removed the attorney-client privilege so that they could testify.
00:40:55.560 But as you're seeing, a lot of what the Democrat angle from yesterday was, was they were trying to say that this was made of conspiracy theory, that Twitter wasn't actually working to suppress conservatives.
00:41:05.940 And then they ultimately were trying to make it about January 6th.
00:41:08.620 And so I think the whole point and objective of oversight and what really Republicans were trying to put forth is, look, we have the evidence they were suppressing, but the smoking gun was the fact that this entity, Twitter Corporation, and I'll say it here first.
00:41:22.460 We have evidence that other social media companies were involved as well in this chat thread.
00:41:27.480 If you guys can get the graphic that I posted from my at RefAPL account, it actually shows that under DHS, there's an organization called CISA.
00:41:37.780 They're the cybersecurity infrastructure security agency, and they really were the ones that set up the misinformation, disinformation boards.
00:41:45.200 They were actually working to communicate with these social media platforms on a private cloud server called JIRA, as well as the Center for Internet Security, different supervisor boards around the state for secretaries of state, and then all of these very left-leaning fact-checking organizations and private partnerships.
00:42:06.920 So this is what we know as a joint state actor, and the fact is that they did not expect us to have the screenshot of their conversation.
00:42:15.060 But to be clear, that screenshot represents one of thousands, and it was actually leaked, I think, on accident by Alex Stamos on a YouTube video from Stanford University.
00:42:25.800 And so that was the smoking gun.
00:42:27.280 I think that there needs to be a lot more investigations into this, and as we're seeing, there was absolute collusion with these companies and the federal government to suppress the First Amendment.
00:42:36.920 Let me ask you quick. I know you're busy. Can you stay through a quick break? If you can, we'll keep you through.
00:42:41.900 If not, because you're breaking this right here. Okay, fine.
00:42:46.400 Do you believe—we've got 45 seconds before we go to break. Do you believe that witnesses in front of you yesterday then perjured themselves?
00:42:52.980 Yeah, I believe that they're lying to me under oath, and that's exactly why I brought out the actual screenshot of the conversation.
00:42:59.160 And you saw that he didn't actually want to answer that question, and then at a certain point he basically refused.
00:43:03.840 What's interesting is I wasn't threatening anyone, and the Democrats immediately tried to say that I was threatening the witness, which is absurd.
00:43:10.260 Totally. I'll tell you what. We have Congressman Anna Polina Luna.
00:43:16.820 She was—yesterday did a star turn in the Oversight Committee's opening salvo about collusion between the FBI, DOJ, and social media.
00:43:26.500 A pretty explosive testimony. We're going to take a short break.
00:43:29.480 We've got Dr. Robert Malone, Steve Cortez, Anna Polina Luna, all—we're going to get to it all.
00:43:34.200 Short break. Back in a moment.

00:45:58.620 CPAC.org slash War Room.
00:46:00.440 We'll talk more about it in the next hour.
00:46:02.680 Congressman Anna Paulina Luna.
00:46:04.840 Really a star turned yesterday.
00:46:06.760 Walk us through, because this is pretty explosive.
00:46:08.660 So I'm going to just hit rewind, walk the audience through everything you just told us.
00:46:12.760 And I think you've got some additional information, Congressman.
00:46:15.740 So we also found out from a final report by the Election Integrity Partnership that the DNC was potentially involved in this.
00:46:23.380 And so clearly this is going to be something that, as oversight, we have to do a lot more investigating and looking into.
00:46:29.720 But what this establishes right now is that this is a joint state action with the federal government and these private companies to work to suppress the American people.
00:46:39.700 And mind you, they were doing this in secret.
00:46:42.380 They knew that they weren't supposed to be doing it.
00:46:43.740 I mean, how many people last or yesterday did you hear say, oh, we can't address that attorney-client privilege?
00:46:48.920 Whatever it was, the excuses that they used, they knew darn well what they were doing was illegal.
00:46:53.840 And I think the fact that the DNC went to really bat for them and protect them just goes to show how deep this really went.
00:47:01.000 But from a legal perspective, what this allows people to do is I think it opens up these people for lawsuits.
00:47:07.220 And so this is now me taking off my official capacity and saying, I think that they have some serious legal troubles.
00:47:13.640 And now I'm going back to my official capacity because I don't want to be accused of threatening anyone.
00:47:20.480 Just the tone of it from yesterday, like Baker, did it seem like the testimony was forthwith?
00:47:28.080 Did it seem like the questions that you asked and others, you got straight answers?
00:47:32.180 Do you think some people perjure themselves or do you think they just continue to try to obfuscate and they have to come back?
00:47:38.460 You have to do depositions.
00:47:40.480 You know, we heard Clay Higgins, that powerful, you know, turn by Clay Higgins about they broke the law.
00:47:47.900 What are your thoughts on all that?
00:47:49.760 I believe that they I believe that they were lying to me.
00:47:52.320 Yul Roth was definitely lying to me.
00:47:53.760 And he tried to hide the facts.
00:47:55.660 He didn't anticipate that we would have him literally in a screenshot with CISA and Twitter as an executive and other agencies.
00:48:04.440 And so the fact is, is that if they can lie to a member of Congress, we have to make sure that we're holding them accountable.
00:48:11.640 They didn't expect us to have that angle.
00:48:13.160 I can tell you that much.
00:48:14.180 And what we brought it up, if you look at the video footage of their faces, you can see that they started sweating.
00:48:19.920 I mean, every single one of them probably jumped on their phone and started texting their attorneys at that point.
00:48:26.040 And they were all under oath, correct?
00:48:28.820 Correct.
00:48:29.460 They're all under oath.
00:48:32.720 Where do you where do you see oversight going?
00:48:36.180 What can you give us?
00:48:37.360 And not a roadmap, but just directionally, where are we going to head on this?
00:48:40.180 Well, I know Comer is having Mayorkas come in in the next two weeks once we get back from our two-week recess.
00:48:48.120 And when that happens, this is incredibly important because Mayorkas is ahead of DHS.
00:48:52.600 And clearly under DHS, you had CISA.
00:48:55.280 And they are basically the entity that was working with these social media companies, these fact-checking operations, these very left-wing nonprofits, as well as a center for Internet security to censor the American people on JIRA.
00:49:08.140 And so this is going to be a huge deal.
00:49:10.240 We're going to see what we can do in regards to getting some of that communication.
00:49:13.840 But I want to remind people, too, if the National Archives went after President Trump because they're saying that he didn't properly store classified information,
00:49:23.300 and yet you have an entire governmental agency that's privately talking on a server and definitely not storing any of the information,
00:49:31.120 I mean, do you see the double standard that exists?
00:49:32.940 And so right now what we're doing is not only working to expose this, but also, too, we have to write legislation to ensure that this never happens again.
00:49:42.200 And right now it's kind of the Wild West with tech and social media.
00:49:45.420 And so it's going to be members of this Congress moving forward that are going to have to pull out all these facts and then put together legislation that protects us in the future.
00:49:54.180 Congressman, how can people follow you?
00:49:58.580 That was a star turn yesterday, but it's the first I'm sure many we're going to see.
00:50:01.840 How do people get to know you better, follow you on social media, and get to your congressional office?
00:50:06.400 You can follow my official accounts at Rep Luna.
00:50:10.260 I'm at 1017 Longworth, so please stop in and say hi to us when we're in session.
00:50:14.860 And I just ask you guys, obviously, I have a massive target on my back, so have my back.
00:50:19.120 We have your back from the beginning.
00:50:24.360 A great job, Yerse.
00:50:25.160 You made everybody very proud.
00:50:26.280 Thank you, man, for coming on.
00:50:28.080 Thanks, Bannon.
00:50:30.800 I want to get to Dr. Malone here about Big Farmer quickly.
00:50:34.300 Steve Cortez, you've argued for a long time about breaking up big tech.
00:50:39.040 Yesterday's hearing, how did that set with you, sir?
00:50:42.700 Well, no, it only emboldens the case, Steve.
00:50:45.000 And listen, those hearings were absolutely necessary and very important to lay the foundation on the public record, right, of the crimes committed against the American people, against the Bill of Rights by these companies and by the actual collusion between our intelligence community and big tech, which, by the way, is the textbook definition of fascism.
00:51:03.220 It's when the government is working in concert with favored private interests to suppress the people.
00:51:08.020 But here's the thing.
00:51:08.940 We can't just stop at those revelations.
00:51:11.420 It has to get to action, and I propose that one of the key actions has to be antitrust.
00:51:16.760 We need to channel Teddy Roosevelt, one of the greatest Republicans in history, and we need to break up and or regulate big tech.
00:51:24.680 And the U.S. House can start that process now.
00:51:26.740 Now, it won't happen with the Biden DOJ, but the point is they can start the process now so that when we do take the Senate, when we do elect an American first president, we have to aggressively go after big tech.
00:51:37.560 It is an absolute threat. These oligarchs are a threat to the very foundation of our American republic, as revealed by those explosive hearings yesterday.
00:51:45.260 Again, they were great, but we can't end there.
00:51:47.560 We can't end there by just pounding the table and being mad, Steve.
00:51:50.280 We need action. And in this case, I think the best action is antitrust.
00:51:53.720 Now, the thing that brought you to mind was the arrogance of they just sit there under oath and lie to people until they were presented with the action.
00:52:03.640 I don't think I don't think these big tech executives, I don't think the guys in the weaponization understand between depositions and information that these or this judiciary weaponization of government oversight, the the one that MTG is going to be on the covid.
00:52:21.020 We're going to talk to Dr. Malone about this in a second.
00:52:23.280 And the information these people are coming with are a big part of it is a set of perjury traps.
00:52:29.020 Right. And they got to understand that the ability just to lie anymore.
00:52:33.000 And I think the arrogance shows you why you have to break these companies up.
00:52:37.940 It just can't be Section 230. They have to be broken up.
00:52:41.160 They have to broken up and then regulate.
00:52:43.180 OK, short commercial break. Steve, you just hang with me for a few minutes.
00:52:45.920 We've got a 90 second break. Dr. Malone, a quite explosive sub stack analysis from Berenson and Dr. Malone's the only guy can break it down for us.
00:52:56.040 Dr. Robert Malone next in the war room.
00:52:57.760 War room posse. You already know free speech is under constant attack by the swamp and their big tech allies.

00:54:09.920 It's a company that makes a soft gel supplement rich in antioxidants to help people like you and me keep a healthy heart.
00:54:16.920 While COVID gets all the headlines, it's important to realize that heart disease kills nearly 700,000 Americans every year.
00:54:25.480 Yes, heart disease is the number one killer every year, year in and year out.
