Transcript

00:00:00.240 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
00:00:05.080 Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.
00:00:10.280 Here's the time I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
00:00:14.560 The people have had a belly full of it.
00:00:16.480 I know you don't like hearing that.
00:00:17.940 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
00:00:20.600 It's going to happen.
00:00:21.860 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
00:00:25.260 Mega Media.
00:00:26.180 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:00:32.100 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:00:35.800 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:00:42.200 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:00:45.440 So I can confirm that the Department of Defense was tracking a high-altitude object over Alaska airspace in the last 24 hours.
00:00:57.920 The object was flying at an altitude of 40,000 feet and posed a reasonable threat to the safety of civilian flight.
00:01:09.780 Out of an abundance of caution and at the recommendation of the Pentagon, President Biden ordered the military to down the object.
00:01:16.760 And they did. And it came inside our territorial waters.
00:01:22.040 Those waters right now are frozen, but inside territorial airspace and over territorial waters.
00:01:28.600 Fighter aircraft assigned to U.S. Northern Command took down the object within the last hour.
00:01:34.540 My question is, if it had remained secret and had not become a spectacle and arguably an embarrassment to the White House, would you have shot it down or allowed it to continue on its way?
00:01:45.960 You're asking me to speculate?
00:01:48.620 Sure.
00:01:51.480 So, Mike, I'll kind of just push back a little bit at the assertion there.
00:01:55.580 So, first of all, again, what made this balloon different was the length and duration that it was over the continental United States.
00:02:03.860 Look, we track activities all over the globe on a daily basis, some of which will remain classified because, again, we don't want to reveal sources and methods.
00:02:13.940 In this particular case, I can tell you that there were efforts underway to to make that public.
00:02:22.940 I, you know, Montana journalists reporting notwithstanding all that to say, look,
00:02:28.740 there are going to be times when there's activities happening that we're monitoring that we're we're not going to go public,
00:02:33.720 especially if it doesn't present a particular or pose a significant threat to the American public.
00:02:39.840 But again, as as we monitored that balloon, there was an effort underway to ensure that that folks understood what this was,
00:02:48.940 especially given how visible it was.
00:02:51.100 And I'll just stop there. Thank you.
00:02:54.480 You think that President Biden made this call because of political pressure.
00:02:58.640 Am I reading you right?
00:03:00.720 Well, I'm I'm you know, I'm trying to that's what it seems like, Jake, to be candid.
00:03:05.180 I'm trying to understand why this much smaller by their own admission, much less capable balloon with a much smaller payload was deemed such a threat that the other one wasn't.
00:03:17.160 And it can't just be the altitude.
00:03:19.060 And to your point on, you know, what our red line should be,
00:03:22.560 I guarantee you if we put an object over Beijing or over some of their sensitive sites at 40 to 60,000 feet for days collecting sensitive intelligence,
00:03:32.620 they would take action. We need to take reciprocal action and again, make that clear up front.
00:03:37.900 We know what the facts are as they have been laid out to us from the White House and from the Pentagon.
00:03:42.380 You've just suggested that you think based on what you've heard, it is less likely that it is a Chinese spy balloon.
00:03:46.800 Explain that. Is that because it's much smaller? Is that because it's flying lower?
00:03:50.280 Is that because of the direction that it was seen traveling in?
00:03:54.640 Well, first of all, if it was a follow on Chinese intelligence collection operation,
00:04:01.480 then it would be either a level of political effrontery by President Xi that is beyond belief,
00:04:09.380 or it would mean the PLA was out of control.
00:04:12.620 So set that one aside.
00:04:14.320 And then secondly, it was operating at a lower level, going in,
00:04:18.900 as Courtney picked up in an unusual direction, northeast, appeared not steerable,
00:04:25.200 was a much smaller object.
00:04:27.000 Those F-22s, the unclassified ceiling of the Air Force says is 50,000 feet.
00:04:34.900 Many sources say it can get up to 70,000 feet.
00:04:38.680 So the F-22s got eyeballs on it at very close range to see what it was.
00:04:45.340 And they didn't detect a manned object.
00:04:48.000 They didn't detect hostile intent.
00:04:49.920 So it sounds to me as if we just have to wait until the debris field is picked up in the next 72 hours and analyzed.
00:04:59.600 And that will tell us pretty much for sure what it was.
00:05:02.520 It's Friday, 10 February, in the year of our Lord, 2023.
00:05:08.080 You're in the afternoon and early evening show of The War Room on Friday.
00:05:13.740 You're headquarters for all information about the Third World War, as we keep telling folks.
00:05:19.180 A couple of notes.
00:05:20.240 Lula is in the transnational criminal marks as Lula's in D.C.
00:05:26.340 I think they're going to have a press briefing at like 7.30.
00:05:28.820 Lula's here.
00:05:29.980 I don't think he's high-fiving on aid to Ukraine.
00:05:33.520 A little dispute over there, of course.
00:05:35.480 The government in Moldova fell this afternoon.
00:05:38.340 Pro-Western government.
00:05:39.640 It's a neighbor to Ukraine.
00:05:40.840 Fell because of the Ukrainian war.
00:05:43.160 Disputes, I guess, with the population.
00:05:44.760 The pro-Western government has fallen.
00:05:47.140 Only been in power 18 months.
00:05:49.640 Just a little longer than this war has gone on.
00:05:51.460 I want to bring in Congressman Andy Biggs.
00:05:54.180 Congressman General McCaffrey, who's no friend of MAGA, no friend of President Trump's, he's
00:06:01.940 sitting there.
00:06:02.500 He's stunned that she would have the stones to put another one up just a couple of days.
00:06:08.540 Do you believe, as a member of Congress and a representative from the great state of Arizona,
00:06:13.600 with so many veterans out there and active-duty military personnel, do you think you've gotten
00:06:18.300 the full story on the first Chinese spy airship?
00:06:24.160 Do you believe that you've been dealt with straight and you know all the facts of what
00:06:27.220 went on with the first one, sir?
00:06:30.400 No, not at all.
00:06:31.660 Not at all.
00:06:32.400 I think that this administration wouldn't have told us anything but for the Montana journalist
00:06:38.860 that took a picture of the balloon and then disseminated it.
00:06:41.360 And, you know, all as we knew, you know, is that they had a big payload they were transmitting.
00:06:49.600 No, they've not told us enough yet.
00:06:52.960 And nor have they said anything really significant or meaningful with regard to this smaller car-sized
00:07:00.300 balloon payload coming over again into our territory.
00:07:06.140 Does that concern you, that you feel as a member of Congress that they have not been straightforward?
00:07:15.220 And by the way, Xi, in the high command of the Chinese Communist Party, knew it was coming
00:07:20.980 across the Aleutians in Alaska into the lower 48 and that Biden had not told the nation and
00:07:26.840 hadn't done anything about it because he wanted Blinken to go over there and kowtow.
00:07:30.660 So they knew that was a sign of weakness.
00:07:34.040 Do you feel there's anything Congress can do to force Biden administration to come to
00:07:39.340 Congress and actually explain what is going on here?
00:07:43.840 Well, yeah, I think, you know, the key is always going to be leverage with finances.
00:07:49.440 So we need to do some financial leverage.
00:07:51.620 We need to do some leverage with the Oversight Judiciary Committee, maybe even the Foreign Affairs
00:07:56.940 of the House Committee, they need to bring in these individuals.
00:08:00.820 And look, if they want to go to a skiff to tell us what actually happened, then let's
00:08:05.940 go to a skiff.
00:08:06.940 And none of this, you know, the normal BS, because quite frankly, Steve, so many times,
00:08:12.620 and I didn't go to, I did not, I purposely, so I could talk about it, I purposely didn't
00:08:16.660 go to the last one because what so often happens is they just, they give you information that
00:08:22.800 you could read in any newspaper or on any online news aggregator.
00:08:27.800 So they don't tell us the full story.
00:08:30.300 They don't tell us the truth.
00:08:31.980 And that's why you see things, you know, and I really believe this, they're spying on our
00:08:36.920 own people.
00:08:37.480 They're spying on members of Congress.
00:08:39.500 They're spying on local political parties, we're finding out today.
00:08:42.480 And so you throw this in there and you say, our government just doesn't tell us the truth.
00:08:48.120 And they don't understand that the legislature, the Congress is supposed to be their overseers.
00:08:54.700 And this is supposed to be a civilian government that military answers to and not the civilian
00:09:00.320 government, government answering to the military.
00:09:05.160 A situation in Ukraine today, Moldova government fell.
00:09:10.240 You had increased military operations.
00:09:13.260 It turns out, it looks like Europe has turned down Zelensky for the F-16s.
00:09:18.120 Matt Gaetz put in a proposal yesterday, a resolution yesterday about no more money to Ukraine and
00:09:23.880 particularly trying to force Biden to come to the House and with a war powers resolution
00:09:29.860 to implement the War Powers Act.
00:09:31.920 Do you agree with that?
00:09:32.960 What is your thoughts on the Ukraine situation and the non-transparency of the Biden regime?
00:09:37.240 Well, I'm one of the original co-sponsors of Matt's bill, because we've never had this
00:09:45.660 administration come and actually make a legitimate case for national security interests of the
00:09:50.140 United States of America and Ukraine.
00:09:52.060 They will say things like, oh, well, you know, we want to protect another democracy, etc.
00:09:56.260 They've not said what the national security interest is for the United States of America.
00:10:02.800 And Europe is not so much interested in helping with the defense.
00:10:07.740 And we've spent $125 billion to defend their borders.
00:10:12.800 And so that's what this administration says.
00:10:15.360 Well, we have to defend their sovereign borders.
00:10:16.960 They won't even defend our sovereign border.
00:10:19.980 But somehow we've got to defend Ukraine's sovereign border.
00:10:23.540 And that border was contested far more heavily than our own is.
00:10:28.440 The difference is our border is now controlled by a criminal cartel from Mexico.
00:10:34.100 And we're doing nothing about it in this administration.
00:10:36.500 So my opinion, and I've been where Matt is on this all along, is that we should not be in Ukraine
00:10:44.780 because it doesn't have a national security interest.
00:10:47.860 And if you do think so, then you have an obligation to come to the United States Congress under the
00:10:52.580 Constitution and tell us what that is, what that interest is, and take it to a full vote of the Congress.
00:11:00.280 Because, quite frankly, we're still operating under authorization to use military force, AUMFs,
00:11:09.240 that are decades and decades old, including the Korean War, for Pete's sake.
00:11:17.120 Do you believe you're going to get enough support from maybe some other members who are a little more neoconish
00:11:22.060 to actually say, look, even if you don't agree with our thoughts, our strategy on Ukraine,
00:11:27.280 we've got to force Biden to come and give the American people an actual plan with strategy, objectives, cost, all of that?
00:11:33.640 Do you think you'll garner enough support from other Republicans to make this thing happen?
00:11:40.600 You want false optimism or honesty?
00:11:43.360 And, you know, honesty, Steve, is I don't think so.
00:11:46.400 I think that we have.
00:11:47.740 Yeah.
00:11:48.300 Yeah.
00:11:48.700 Honesty every time.
00:11:49.560 I don't think some of our war hawks want to bring the president in.
00:11:56.980 The president has said, and some of our friends even in our own party have said, as long as it takes, as much as it takes.
00:12:04.480 And I just don't understand that philosophy.
00:12:09.300 But it is, as you said, they cannot tell you what victory looks like.
00:12:13.660 They cannot tell you what the exit strategy looks like.
00:12:16.000 And I see it's being bogged down there for a long time.
00:12:18.800 Don't forget, this is, quite frankly, a proxy war with Russia between Joe Biden and the Russians.
00:12:29.380 By the way, so the border we care about is the southern border, and particularly in Arizona, Texas, California, New Mexico.
00:12:36.380 It's a big development today.
00:12:38.180 First off, you know, the Bidens came out just like Benzman said and said, hey, we've had a great month since we changed the law.
00:12:44.900 Now they've got the pardons down in Mexico.
00:12:48.300 But a big announcement today from DHS, correct me if I'm wrong, my staff chair, did Mallorca says DHS retain an outside counsel because of the impeachment move on him, sir?
00:12:58.340 That's what's been reported.
00:13:01.580 And their claim is that they have nobody on staff that's prepared to provide advice on how to deal with the ins and outs of an impeachment inquiry.
00:13:13.440 And that's really where we're headed in the House is an impeachment inquiry.
00:13:18.300 And it's tacitly started with the judiciary and oversight committees going forward with these kind of hearings dealing with border security and Mayorkas' failure to not just secure the border, but deliberately emasculating our national boundary.
00:13:39.460 And so we did that.
00:13:40.680 We've had an off-campus forum this week.
00:13:45.200 So a lot's going on.
00:13:46.640 And so they reportedly hired somebody to give them advice on how to deal with the potential impeachment process.
00:13:54.480 That is a huge victory for you, is it not, sir?
00:13:56.960 I mean, we're only a week into this, and they hire high-powered.
00:14:00.500 Trust me, they've got plenty of great lawyers over.
00:14:03.280 And we're paying for tons of great lawyers, not just at DHS but throughout the government.
00:14:07.740 They hired a high-powered outside law firm because they know Andy Biggs is coming for them.
00:14:13.920 Let's be blunt.
00:14:14.780 Is that the way you read it?
00:14:18.500 Yeah, I think I read it that way.
00:14:21.280 I think I read it in the way that they say it's McCarthy, Biggs, Jordan, Gates, Chip Roy, everybody coming after them.
00:14:31.080 And you know what it says to me is they know that there is smoke, that there is fire to the smoke.
00:14:38.360 It is real.
00:14:39.340 With the smoke.
00:14:39.900 What he has done is, yeah, yeah, yeah, there's a real fire there.
00:14:43.880 Congressman, hang on one second.
00:14:45.480 Hang on one second.
00:14:46.580 We're taking a short commercial break.
00:14:48.160 Congressman Andy Biggs on the impeachment of Mayorkas.
00:14:51.580 It's getting real.
00:14:52.900 They're lawyering up next in the war room.
00:14:54.800 Despite the U.S. blowing through $31.4 trillion debt ceiling in January, the leftist White House still refuses to reduce spending.
00:15:09.040 While our national leadership has buried their heads in the sand, when it comes to fiscal responsibility, it's time to pull yours out.
00:15:16.300 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 $247,000.
00:15:28.080 And it's only going to get worse.
00:15:30.480 Now would be a great time to diversify into gold with birch gold.
00:15:34.220 In times of high uncertainty and instability, gold is king because it's dependable.
00:15:40.260 Birch gold makes it easy to convert an IRA or 401k into an IRA in precious metals.

00:16:25.680 Use your host, Stephen K.
00:16:27.620 Bannon.
00:16:27.960 Okay, welcome back.
00:16:32.520 Congressman Biggs on here, he had to bounce.
00:16:34.900 But the law firm, Peter, come in here, because you did so much as one of President Trump's right-hand men on the border.
00:16:41.180 The law firm is Debovois Plimpton.
00:16:43.900 It's one of the white shoe of the white shoe law firms.
00:16:46.380 Okay, Navarro, you worked in the government.
00:16:49.600 They have a few lawyers.
00:16:50.840 They have a few lawyers.
00:16:52.660 DOJ's got a couple of three.
00:16:54.260 White House's got a couple of three.
00:16:56.300 They got a couple, one or two over at DHS.
00:16:58.800 DHS has 200,000 people work there, I think.
00:17:01.460 They have a few lawyers, don't they?
00:17:03.200 They know it's serious when they're hiring a big-time outside white shoe law firm, and they're forced to announce it in a press release.
00:17:11.260 They're also sending a shot across Biggs and McCarthy and Jordan's Bow that, hey, come, get some, get some, right?
00:17:18.760 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:17:19.720 Tell us how the city works.
00:17:21.520 Well, we know how the DOJ is the largest law firm in the world.
00:17:25.580 Think about that.
00:17:26.100 The Department of Justice of the United States is the biggest law firm in the world.
00:17:30.660 But I can see how they're a little under man right now because virtually the whole organization is trying to put Trump people in jail, including the boss.
00:17:38.820 This is a big deal in my judgment because the DHS has been caught with its hand in the corruption jar.
00:17:50.280 It has willfully and in a conspiratorial manner flaunted the constitution and laws of this land.
00:17:59.300 And the emails, the memos, the phone records, those are the kinds of things that are going to demonstrate that the official policy of the Joe Biden administration was to open the border, flaunt all our laws.
00:18:16.320 And I always get back to what you and I always talk about.
00:18:19.880 There's no question right now, Steve, that the official immigration policy of the Joe Biden administration is also their economic policy to control the wages of black, blue collar and brown Americans or working class.
00:18:35.960 I mean, to me, this is the biggest disgusting thing.
00:18:39.480 If you go to Joe Biden's State of the Union where he's trying to talk about doing things for America and build it here and this, that and the other thing.
00:18:46.200 I mean, look, if you if you import the labor force from out there and you're building it in America, you still got something going on that's wrong.
00:18:56.400 OK, hang on for a second.
00:18:58.240 OK, so if we can get the Hill story up and if Mo and Grace can put it all in different chats.
00:19:03.200 So the Hill announced today, Mayorkas has retained an outside powerhouse, white shoe law firm to handle everything regarding impeachment.
00:19:12.820 They know it's real.
00:19:14.140 OK, they know that between judiciary oversight, DHS, those panels are going to do the investigations on how they broke the law.
00:19:22.620 Benson also told you for the last two months.
00:19:25.740 Conspiratorially broke the law, Steve.
00:19:28.100 They conspiratorially broke the law.
00:19:30.440 They intentionally broke the law.
00:19:32.360 They didn't, like, break it by mistake.
00:19:35.320 It's like, no, there's the law.
00:19:37.140 How can we get around it?
00:19:38.800 And, you know, we'll see the receipts if they don't bury it or burn it.
00:19:44.660 Well, Ben, Ben, Ben, Axios, Axios, literally Todd Benson was on here three weeks ago, four weeks ago.
00:19:50.560 And he actually has a story headline, you know, immigration drops dramatically.
00:19:56.360 Right.
00:19:57.080 Because of Biden's policies and that the 10th paragraph down, they talk about the parole, humanitarian parole.
00:20:03.880 They're doing all they're doing is getting you all the EBT cards and getting your work permits.
00:20:07.940 They're getting everything down in Mexico and flying you into the internal.
00:20:11.080 It's not it's increasing the invasion of our country.
00:20:14.540 And as Navarro picked out the other day, they've already registered.
00:20:17.340 If you fly over, it's not a border crossing, Steve.
00:20:19.640 No, that's it.
00:20:20.840 If you fly over, it's not a border crossing, right?
00:20:23.500 You got to walk over the Rio Grande Valley in order for that to be official border crossing.
00:20:29.340 I mean, it's funny, but this is so tragic, Steve.
00:20:33.580 There's like two million people.
00:20:36.060 I mean, it's the million people that the Census Bureau counted in the workforce now is like an old number.
00:20:45.420 There's going to be another million males, uneducated, illegal immigrants coming in here, taking the jobs of black, brown and blue collar Americans.
00:20:56.440 And those people at DHS, yeah, they're, you know, they got issues.
00:21:03.560 And the DOJ lawyers aren't going to bail them out.
00:21:06.560 They're going for the white shoe guys.
00:21:09.860 Bill Barr will probably step up and help them.
00:21:12.320 Bill Barr will probably do this stuff pro bono.
00:21:15.780 That's the kind of guy Bill Barr is.
00:21:19.460 Man, we give Navarro back for one day.
00:21:22.420 Is he on Skype?
00:21:23.660 He's all jacked.
00:21:24.100 You got me hot.
00:21:24.800 I'll tell you, the audience wants it.
00:21:26.160 You got me hot, Ben.
00:21:26.600 No, you don't.
00:21:27.760 It's what happens when you put me in the cage for 15 minutes in the A block when I was supposed to be there.
00:21:34.380 But it's fine.
00:21:35.020 I love Andy Biggs, you know, but I get ramped up, baby.
00:21:38.560 Hold it.
00:21:39.980 Give me a flex.
00:21:41.160 Do a flex.
00:21:41.720 Okay.
00:21:42.540 You called it the other day by looking at the Census Bureau.
00:21:45.020 There's already a million in the workforce.
00:21:46.960 And this is how they've been saying they're going to bring down inflation because African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, low-skilled workers are making too much money, making too much money.
00:21:56.620 Yeah, and Jay Powell, when he was giving his speech, he said the same damn thing.
00:22:00.880 He said immigration was going to solve our wage inflation problem.
00:22:05.400 He forgot to put the word illegal in front of it because immigration, legal immigration, it's like a puddle compared to the ocean of illegal immigration.
00:22:16.740 So these people, they are so checked out of Main Street, blue-collar, MAGA America.
00:22:25.520 And the fact that that's the Democratic Party and Scranton Joe basically pushing these policies, it's disgusting.
00:22:34.920 Let's, okay, talk about Scranton Joe.
00:22:36.860 I want to see, they know what sells.
00:22:39.740 They know what sells.
00:22:40.840 They take this right from President Trump in Navarro.
00:22:43.480 Let's go ahead and play it.
00:22:44.260 Let's play the State of the Union.
00:22:45.160 I want you to hear this.
00:22:46.740 To restore the soul of this nation, to rebuild the backbone of America, America's middle class, and to unite the country.
00:22:54.160 We've been sent here to finish the job, in my view.
00:22:57.260 For decades, the middle class has been hollowed out in more than, and now no one administration, but for a long time.
00:23:04.400 Too many good-paying manufacturing jobs move overseas.
00:23:07.880 Factories close down.
00:23:09.680 Once thriving cities and towns that many of you represent became shadows of what they used to be.
00:23:14.960 Along the way, something else we lost, pride, our sense of self-worth.
00:23:20.840 I ran for president to fundamentally change things, to make sure our economy works for everyone, so we can all feel that pride in what we do.
00:23:29.880 To build an economy from the bottom up and the middle class does well, the poor have a ladder up, and the wealthy still do very well.
00:23:40.400 We all do well.
00:23:41.600 We all do well.
00:23:43.160 Let me have it.
00:23:45.260 Peter?
00:23:46.480 Oh, ban it, ban it, ban it, ban it.
00:23:48.160 Is that lifted?
00:23:49.080 Okay, he's giving Donald Trump's 2016 stump speech.
00:23:54.420 And the cognitive dissonance here.
00:23:57.500 I mean, the first thing Biden did was erase half the executive orders I did on things like buy American, hire American.
00:24:05.640 You can't take this guy seriously, except for the fact you have to, because this stuff's resonating with the American people.
00:24:15.100 You know, when I saw that SOB, and I'm going to talk about this in the documentary podcast I'm doing next week, when I saw that SOB with that blood-red background going after MAGA as terrorists and extremists, it was like a laugh-out-loud moment.
00:24:30.240 Nobody's going to believe that.
00:24:31.480 Well, people did believe that.
00:24:33.380 And people are going to believe he is providing us, like, American jobs when, in fact, illegal aliens are coming over to take him.
00:24:41.140 So a lot wrong here, Steve.
00:24:45.440 By the way, I think not just the stump speech.
00:24:48.680 He lifted part of the inauguration address of President Trump.
00:24:51.460 He talked about what has to happen for this country.
00:24:54.040 Now, he's all talk, because he comes from Delaware, the corporate center.
00:24:58.020 You know, he's the corporate president, not Joe from Scranton.
00:25:01.860 But he did say something that's something that you and I have talked about a lot.
00:25:06.420 One is the stock buybacks, right?
00:25:08.300 The financial engineer is totally unacceptable, the way they juice up the stock so they get the big bonuses.
00:25:13.500 The other was the billionaire's tax.
00:25:15.800 Now, I call it not billionaires because people should be billionaires.
00:25:18.460 We want people to aspire to wealth and creating wealth.
00:25:21.240 But the oligarchs.
00:25:22.360 So let's not call it the billionaires, but the oligarchs' tax and the stock buybacks.
00:25:27.140 Give me your thoughts on that.
00:25:28.920 Yeah, yeah.
00:25:29.840 Look, let's go in our time machine, Steve.
00:25:32.440 Back to the White House, early 2017, the beginning, the dawn of the Trump administration.
00:25:37.760 We're debating in the Oval Office what the tax bill should look like.
00:25:44.080 And Trump himself is talking about a tax on the oligarchs.
00:25:49.640 And you and I were the only two people in the room at the time who thought that was a good idea, both politically and from an equity standpoint.
00:25:58.220 Politically, this was a beautiful way to cut the legs out from Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren from accusing us of doing tax cuts for the wealthy.
00:26:09.980 You do the tax cuts for the middle class like we planned, and then you put on top of that a tax increase for the oligarchs.
00:26:17.540 Boom.
00:26:18.200 Politics.
00:26:18.820 That's beautiful.
00:26:20.100 And from an equity standpoint, hey, nothing wrong with that.
00:26:24.040 But, of course, what happened was Steve Mnuchin, the boil on the butt of humanity in the Trump administration, together with Lion Gary Cohn from Goldman Sachs, shot it down, talked the boss out of it.
00:26:37.400 And now what Biden's going to try to do in 2024 is outflank, right, outflank us.
00:26:47.420 And here's what I'm concerned about, Steve.
00:26:50.160 Mitch McConnell, basically, is going to get outflanked just writ large.
00:26:54.940 He's going to oppose that billionaire's tax, right?
00:26:58.140 McCarthy should embrace it.
00:26:59.820 He should embrace that oligarchs tax and not let Biden outflank him.
00:27:04.480 I don't think that's going to happen.
00:27:06.440 We'll see.
00:27:07.340 But my advice, Kevin, would be to outflank.
00:27:11.340 Don't let Biden outflank you, sir.
00:27:16.220 By the way, today in Axios, it said, talked about Biden, that they're going to out.
00:27:21.680 They're going to.
00:27:22.560 They're so nervous about our balanced budget that, quote, unquote, they're going to show what a deficit cutter he is.
00:27:28.040 They're going to put that out, I think, in early March.
00:27:30.800 Their budget is going to be a bigger deficit.
00:27:32.800 We'll do that next week, Steve, because that's all a mirage, all that deficit reduction crap.
00:27:39.360 Things are out of control.
00:27:41.600 We've got to hold firm on that.
00:27:43.460 But we know the Biden playbook.
00:27:44.920 He's going to accuse the Republicans of cutting Medicare and Social Security.
00:27:48.740 Not on the table.
00:27:50.080 He's going to do this oligarchs tax to make it sound like he's the champion of the working classes.
00:27:56.460 And Kevin can't let him get outflanked on that.
00:28:00.580 And we just got to go.
00:28:02.020 So, hey, before you ask, Real P Navarro on Twitter, Getter, and Peter Navarro on True Social.
00:28:09.700 Go to the podcast, Taking Back Trump's America.
00:28:12.460 You can access it through my social media.

00:29:52.020 Here's your host, Stephen K.
00:29:57.000 Band.
00:29:59.920 Okay.
00:30:01.200 Another jam-packed news day.
00:30:03.860 So much going on.
00:30:05.080 One thing I want to make sure that everybody understands is that we've changed the Overton window on this issue of the balanced budget, the deficit.
00:30:13.620 Axios has a huge story up this morning about how Biden is going to try to position.
00:30:19.720 One of the things they're going to use is the billionaire's tax to try to jam us, right?
00:30:25.280 But that can be deficit reduction.
00:30:26.900 But they are going to have cuts, and these cuts are all going to be phony.
00:30:30.040 But they're going to try to present that, hey, they're having deficit reduction.
00:30:34.140 Now, people have called them out, and it's not working when you talk about this ridiculousness of they're the biggest deficit cutters ever because they're coming off the pandemic.
00:30:44.340 And actually, the Axios story shows that nobody's believing that part of it.
00:30:48.060 But when you have Russ vote, you have all the people we bring in here, Richard Stern, Heritage, Russ vote over at the Center for Renewing America.
00:30:56.060 All these people are talking balanced budgets.
00:30:57.940 That's now in the lexicon.
00:30:59.700 That is now something how we've changed the Overton window, and that is going to be part of the debt ceiling debate.
00:31:06.100 I want everybody to remember that what Russ is talking about, the strategy, is much harder core that's being kicked around now.
00:31:13.860 The budget process itself, which kind of is not meaningful.
00:31:17.200 What's meaningful is the appropriations process, how the money and where it actually gets spent.
00:31:21.840 And in this appropriations process, what Russ is arguing for is we pass all those in regular order.
00:31:27.740 Once we do that and we actually lock in with the deficit because that's where you can have significant cuts this year, including on the defense budget, the welfare programs, parts of Medicaid, all of it, that then you negotiate the debt ceiling.
00:31:42.480 So just stay tuned.
00:31:43.580 But I can tell you already see the shifting media landscape of all this.
00:31:49.400 OK, a lot going on.
00:31:50.320 We've got Boris here.
00:31:51.040 Boris, first of all, we had any bigs to start.
00:31:54.640 And there's another, you know, another object has been now shot down over Alaska, right?
00:32:01.860 American airspace sovereignty over Alaska.
00:32:05.780 Bigs, they haven't even really briefed the house, right?
00:32:11.020 I'm not sure they briefed the gang of eight, but they haven't really briefed anybody about the first one, about why it was, you know, why did it come ashore or come over the air of Alaska in our sovereign airspace on the 28th and nothing was done about it.
00:32:23.400 They don't have any answers on that.
00:32:24.800 But what's your assessment of this?
00:32:28.380 And give me your perspective of how President Trump would have handled this.
00:32:32.320 Steve, honor to be with you.
00:32:33.520 Honor to be with the posse.
00:32:35.020 My assessment on this is it's a total disaster for Beijing Biden, the Hunter Biden, and the crime family.
00:32:40.800 And this comes during the week that the Oversight Committee had that robust hearing into the Hunter Biden laptop from hell, that the Committee on Repentization had their robust hearing.
00:32:50.040 And, hey, they better believe that there's hearings coming.
00:32:52.780 And by the way, in the Senate as well, as you know, John Testras called for a hearing, a Democrat, because the first balloon was discovered over Montana.
00:33:00.580 The issue here for Biden is what are they hiding, why are they hiding it, and when did they know about the original balloon from last week and this balloon as well?
00:33:10.440 They just said that they recovered the debris, the payload, from the balloon that was shot down over the Atlantic Ocean after crossing the continental United States, and it is mostly intact.
00:33:22.360 So what does that mean?
00:33:23.340 There's a payload the size of a school bus inside a balloon.
00:33:26.960 They're uncovering it, and they didn't brief the American people.
00:33:29.600 They didn't brief Congress.
00:33:31.520 They tried to keep this from the Department of Defense and the Secretary of Defense.
00:33:35.440 This is a disaster.
00:33:37.480 And it all lines up exactly with the fact that the Bidens have been doing corrupt business with China, with the Chinese Communist Party, for decades.
00:33:45.340 They've been selling out the American people, and we are going to get to the bottom of it, especially with the MAGA leaders in Congress.
00:33:51.000 As far as President Trump, what he would have done, he wouldn't have had to do anything,
00:33:53.920 because China respected his strength enough to have not played these games with America when he was president.
00:34:00.300 The same way that Russia didn't invade anybody when President Trump was in the Oval Office, while they did so under George W. Bush, did so under Barack Obama, and, of course, are doing so under hopeless Joe Biden.
00:34:12.040 You know, you got to the buried lead.
00:34:15.760 We had a cold open.
00:34:16.980 I had General McCaffrey, who's no fan of President Trump's.
00:34:21.080 And McCaffrey was saying what shocked him is the arrogance of Xi to do this so quickly after the last one, given the turmoil it caused in the United States.
00:34:30.520 What do you think Xi's mindset is in doing this, Boris?
00:34:33.580 His mindset is that he completely disrespects hopeless Joe Biden.
00:34:39.080 That's what it is.
00:34:39.980 He disrespects Democrats.
00:34:41.760 He knows that they're either in the pocket of the Chinese Communist Party or not able to do anything against them.
00:34:48.860 That is what is going on.
00:34:50.120 That is the issue here.
00:34:51.720 The Chinese are absolutely poking directly into the face of Joe Biden and threw him to the American people.
00:34:58.700 You know, we talk about how decrepit Biden is, how hopeless he is, how sad him and his administration are.
00:35:04.400 But it's not funny.
00:35:05.440 It's not a joke.
00:35:06.440 This is the exact result.
00:35:07.520 And I wrote this in an op-ed in Newsweek back in March of 2021, that Biden's feebleness, Biden's hopelessness, his absolute inability to conduct the duties of the office is a real danger to America and to our armed forces.
00:35:24.000 And now we're seeing it right, you know, first and foremost, right in front of our eyes.
00:35:27.160 We had this balloon go through barely a week ago, and now a second one.
00:35:30.880 What does that mean?
00:35:31.560 Do the Chinese feel absolutely empowered?
00:35:33.960 You better believe it.
00:35:34.880 And it is all the fault of Joe Biden and the Donald Trump.
00:35:37.380 And as we always say, elections have consequences.
00:35:40.000 Stolen elections have catastrophic consequences.
00:35:42.820 And this is part of that catastrophe.
00:35:45.880 The Daily Telegraph today has a major column from Colonel Richard Kemp, who's a highly respected analyst in English politics, and particularly about the defense strategy.
00:35:55.700 He's saying that there are going to be big losses and that the United Kingdom, and particularly the Tory party, better get ready to brace people for major losses coming in a winter offensive by the Russians.
00:36:07.400 They've regrouped, retooled, retrained, and they're coming in hot.
00:36:11.380 But the Financial Times in this afternoon, Boris, an article I sent you came forward, and the Tory head of the House of Commons Defense Committee, because the Tories run Commons, he says that the British Army, the British Army could last five days in combat.
00:36:27.600 Let me repeat that for our American audience.
00:36:29.880 The British Army could last five days in combat, given how much they've gutted it over the last 10 or 20 years, and particularly the last 13 years under the Tories.
00:36:38.600 Right before he came on air, Boris, the pro-Western, pro-NATO government in Moldova collapsed.
00:36:44.640 It had been in 18 months, very pro-NATO, pro-Western.
00:36:48.120 It's on the border of Ukraine.
00:36:49.320 And because of just a popular, you know, people are getting very nervous there about the war spreading, they want to take a different tact.
00:36:56.300 What is your assessment?
00:36:57.500 Matt Gaetz, we just had Andy Biggs, who's a co-sponsor.
00:37:00.600 Gaetz has put forward a proposal to force Biden to come to the House with a War Powers resolution.
00:37:07.340 Where do you think we are, sir?
00:37:08.320 You know that neighborhood pretty well.
00:37:11.560 This is an absolute festering fire surrounded by nuclear reactors.
00:37:17.400 That is where we are.
00:37:19.780 The situation in Eastern Europe, specifically in the former Soviet Union, is only going to lead to one thing if it is not settled quickly, as President Trump has called for it to be and said he could resolve it in 24 hours, which President Trump absolutely would, even if it got there.
00:37:34.400 Because I think under President Trump, this would have never happened.
00:37:37.100 The Russians would have never invaded Ukraine.
00:37:38.640 Again, they didn't do so when the president was in the Oval Office because they respected his strength.
00:37:43.140 Not because they're trying to be good guys, because they respected his strength.
00:37:46.460 Where we are now is you're starting to see the dominoes fall.
00:37:50.620 You're going to have Moldova, which is going to be rudderless and come, of course, under the influence of Russia.
00:37:56.560 You better believe you're going to realistically see military action there.
00:38:02.480 And if anybody thinks that the United States is not deeply involved in that war right now in Eastern Europe, you're pitting yourselves.
00:38:08.300 And it's not just money.
00:38:09.320 It's not just tanks.
00:38:10.560 It's not just munitions.
00:38:11.440 It is our people on the ground as quote-unquote instructors.
00:38:14.440 Let me remind you, that is exactly, exactly how the Vietnam quagmire started.
00:38:19.120 That is exactly how the Afghanistan disaster started for the former Soviet Union and what it led to, which was the crash of the former Soviet Union.
00:38:27.140 And as far as the British Army goes, this is the British Army of World War I and World War II, of Lloyd George and of Winston Churchill.
00:38:33.160 And now it has been decimated by the liberals.
00:38:36.380 Do not kid yourself.
00:38:37.660 The liberals are looking to destroy the great capital of society.
00:38:42.060 They're looking to unite under one communist, socialist, whatever you call it, far left-wing agenda.
00:38:46.900 And we've got to fight to prevent it.
00:38:48.440 And that's why we need President Trump back in office as soon as possible.
00:38:51.620 As dangerous as Afghanistan and Iraq are, and even places like Vietnam, tell the audience, how dangerous is this neighborhood?
00:39:01.820 We've never been involved in really this type of combat.
00:39:04.720 We've stayed away from this on purpose.
00:39:07.200 How dangerous is this neighborhood as you start to see this whole vortex?
00:39:10.600 It's getting sucked into a vortex of a massive war.
00:39:13.660 And this is a part of the world that have had some of the biggest wars in mankind's history for the last 2,000 years, sir.
00:39:22.160 No doubt about it.
00:39:23.080 All you've got to do is the defenestration of Prague, which was a huge facilitator of an over-20-year war in the Middle Ages.
00:39:32.100 Then I'll have to use two numbers, number one and number two.
00:39:34.960 World War I and number two all started within a tiny radius of where this war is ongoing right now.
00:39:40.440 World War I started in former Yugoslavia and Serbia.
00:39:44.800 World War II started, of course, with Germany invading its neighbors and fighting against the Western Europe, fighting against the Soviet Union on the Eastern Bloc.
00:39:55.660 This is an ongoing mess, an ongoing disaster, and it's got to come to an end as soon as possible.
00:40:02.560 Again, as President Trump, who knows the layout of the world better than anybody, who knows the history better than anybody, has repeatedly said this has to come to an end within 24 hours.
00:40:12.760 Otherwise, we're risking huge, terrible global consequences.
00:40:16.220 This afternoon, a press release went out from DHS.
00:40:20.860 It said that because they didn't have enough lawyers on staff over there, Boris, with the 212,000 employees, and they didn't have enough in the Justice Department or at the White House or anywhere else in the government,
00:40:30.820 that Mayorkas has retained an outside white-shoe law firm, Debevois and Plimpton, to defend him in an impeachment inquiry.
00:40:40.920 That's a pretty big bombshell, is it not, sir?
00:40:44.280 It's a huge bombshell.
00:40:45.600 Debevois is a top white-shoe law firm, so that means that Mayorkas is definitely worried.
00:40:50.240 And you've got all these outside lawyers now, outside big firms representing the Biden crime family in Mayorkas.
00:40:55.860 Who's paying for this?
00:40:56.940 It better not be the American people.
00:40:58.400 We already know that Biden uses outside counsel to conduct effectively government official duties.
00:41:06.140 Again, who is paying for this?
00:41:07.700 Taxpayer resources should not go to defend these corrupt politicians.
00:41:13.300 Boris, what are your coordinates?
00:41:15.800 How do people get to you, particularly the morning newsletter?
00:41:18.020 Steve, thanks so much.
00:41:20.020 Honor to be with you.
00:41:20.800 Honor to be on the show and with the posse.

00:41:36.180 Boris, thank you very much.
00:41:37.260 Have a good weekend.
00:41:38.040 See you on Saturday night, Sunday.
00:41:39.480 I want to pull back the camera just for a second and go back over a couple of things we just talked about.
00:41:46.140 By the way, after we take a break, Michael Seifert is going to join us from Public SQ as we keep telling people we got to build an alternative.
00:41:54.800 Don't stop giving your money to people that hate you, right?
00:41:57.860 That's the watchword here at the worm.
00:42:00.020 Don't give your money to people that hate you.
00:42:01.600 But I want to go back through a couple of things that happened, particularly in this Ukraine situation.
00:42:06.240 As you heard from Andy Biggs, what Gates and these folks have put forward is really, hey, we're cutting a resolution to say no more money for Ukraine.
00:42:15.580 Absolutely zero.
00:42:16.300 And what we need is the Biden administration to follow the Constitution and come to Congress under the War Powers Act and walk people through, make a resolution where they give a in-depth what the strategy is going to be, what the objectives are going to be, all of it.
00:42:31.980 And we have to force these people to be straight with us.
00:42:34.900 The Financial Times of London is quoting the member of parliament, right?
00:42:40.960 The member of parliament that sits in commons, that chairs the defense committee, it'd be like chairing armed services committee here.
00:42:48.520 He said that the British army, the British military could not last for five days in a war.
00:42:55.680 This, by the way, in NATO is our principal ally, not the French and the Germans.
00:43:00.560 The French come next and then the Germans.
00:43:03.180 But this is our principal ally.
00:43:04.840 The military could not last five days.
00:43:08.220 This means you're underwriting everything.
00:43:10.180 I keep telling you, the British can only put up one combat division, and we are being sucked in hour by hour into the beginning of a global conflict, and it's starting in a place that since the founding of this republic, we have avoided any type of military intervention.
00:43:28.640 That would be the Eurasian landmass by Russia and Eastern Europe in the Balkans, okay?
00:43:34.940 Avoided it like the plague.
00:43:36.520 Just look at Gallipoli, look at all the disasters in the Balkans, okay?
00:43:40.520 Short commercial break.
00:43:41.400 Michael Seifert, Public SQ, joins us on the other side.
00:43:44.560 CovidTaxRelief.org got a small retail business, almost $80,000.

00:45:53.120 By the way, I think we talked about it this morning, but I've got a second to talk about it here.
00:45:57.200 Diamond and Silk, and of course Silk does the show now, had an extraordinary hour on Chit Chat on Getter last night with Dr. Paul Alexander.
00:46:08.480 And if Mo and Grace can put the link to that, everybody gets a chance over the weekend.
00:46:13.140 You definitely ought to watch that.
00:46:15.120 It's pretty extraordinary about the vaccine.
00:46:17.660 And I strongly recommend, you know, Silk, if people have ever watched the Chit Chat show, she's an incredible, she gives incredible interviews.
00:46:25.700 And Dr. Alexander was sitting on all cylinders, so make sure you check that out.
00:46:29.100 Also, in the next hour, remember, yesterday is the 80th anniversary of the fall of Guadalcanal to the United States Marines.
00:46:36.880 Japanese Imperial Army surrendered.
00:46:38.280 A week ago was the German Army surrendered to Stalingrad, considered one of the big pivots or inflection points in World War II.
00:46:46.200 Chris Miller, who was President Trump's Secretary of Defense, last one, he did such an incredible job on Morning Joe.
00:46:54.080 We're going to play some clips from that.
00:46:55.560 We've got Chris Miller.
00:46:56.600 He's going to come.
00:46:57.160 We're going to talk more about J6, what actually happened, and the preparations for it.
00:47:01.840 You won't want to miss the clips from Morning Joe where they tried to, I think it was 8-on-1, tried to tear him apart.
00:47:07.000 Also, Royce White will be joining us.
00:47:09.060 That's in the next hour.

00:47:59.080 Public SQ.
00:48:00.240 I keep telling people we've got to build an alternative economy because you've got to stop giving money to people that hate you.
00:48:07.220 Michael Seifert's here.
00:48:08.580 Michael, tell us about this service that you've provided that is incredible.
00:48:12.680 People that have done it are raving about it.
00:48:14.380 Walk us through what people have to do.
00:48:16.140 It's all free.
00:48:16.720 What people have to do.
00:48:18.340 What's the logic behind it?
00:48:20.040 And what value add does Public SQ have?
00:48:23.940 Well, thanks for having me, Steve.
00:48:25.500 It's an honor to be here.
00:48:26.860 And I will say that it's been a phenomenal seven months since we initially launched this platform nationwide, July 4th of 2022.
00:48:34.840 And since then, we've had millions of consumer and business interactions where people are establishing trust with their purchases because we share the same values.
00:48:44.300 So, ultimately, there was a new survey that was just released today.
00:48:47.420 The Trafalgar group found that 80% of Americans are really frustrated and tired of this ultra-political messaging from these woke and progressive corporations in society.
00:48:56.980 And they want new alternatives.
00:48:58.980 We are tired of these systems that have become corrupted, and we're ready to embrace a parallel economy.
00:49:04.140 So, seven months ago, we launched this digital platform nationwide where consumers that love this country, love their freedom, stand for the values found in the Constitution, endowed by our creator, these unalienable rights.
00:49:16.180 If you love those values, you should put purpose behind your purchase and spend money at businesses that share those same values.
00:49:23.280 And, ultimately, in the process, we've created America's Marketplace, and it's been amazing to watch it blossom.
00:49:27.420 So, thanks for asking.
00:49:28.780 It's really been a tremendous journey thus far, and it's all free to join.
00:49:31.360 So, the movement's continuing to grow every single day.
00:49:35.240 So, tell to people, when they go, how do they get on?
00:49:38.800 What do they do?
00:49:39.820 And then, if you're a company or an entrepreneur, how do you do it also?
00:49:43.360 And when people are on there, what can they do?
00:49:45.040 How do they get the services?
00:49:46.180 How do they get the products?
00:49:48.340 Yeah, great question.
00:49:49.260 So, you can head to publicsq.com, and that's the best place to get started, whether you are a consumer or a business owner.
00:49:55.060 We have thousands of new consumers and business owners that join every single day.
00:49:58.900 It's a very easy, quick process, and it's all free.
00:50:01.720 In fact, what's very cool is that if you're a consumer, when you sign up and you create an account, you'll be dropped into the experience, and you'll immediately notice something interesting.
00:50:09.140 You're actually given discount incentives from the majority of these businesses to spend money in alignment with your values.
00:50:15.080 So, not only can you have the satisfaction of having this liberating market experience where you know you're shopping your values and you're voting with your wallet,
00:50:21.580 but many of these businesses will help you take it one step further, and it'll actually give you discounts to spend money in alignment with your values.
00:50:27.500 And then if you're the business owner, it's great because you can sign up for free, and we'll never ask you for money.
00:50:32.280 We'll never charge you.
00:50:33.220 You have the ability to present your products or services or goods to a group of consumers you know you can trust because they share your worldview.
00:50:39.620 So, what's neat is that the business owners share every single day.
00:50:42.160 We're seeing our profits surge from consumers that love our country.
00:50:45.520 The consumers are saying, I finally feel satisfied with my purchase because I'm not having to just spend money at the same woke institutions anymore.
00:50:53.060 I have a new option.
00:50:54.220 And for us, it's an honor because we get to broker that transaction, and we get to introduce these consumers and businesses to one another,
00:50:59.580 and this parallel economy is created in the process.
00:51:01.920 If someone's sitting in a home and they have an at-home business or somebody's sitting there with a business that does a couple hundred million bucks a year
00:51:09.120 or somebody's got a local business or plumbers or a car dealership or a car repair service, are all those eligible?
00:51:15.980 I mean, how do people know if they're going to be eligible as entrepreneurs to actually list their own businesses?
00:51:21.460 Yeah, Steve, it does not matter if you have one employee or 50 employees.
00:51:24.580 It doesn't matter if you make $1 a year or $100 million a year.
00:51:29.520 You are welcome on the platform.
00:51:30.720 As long as when you sign up, you agree with our set of values that say we love our country, we love our freedoms,
00:51:35.460 we love the rights that are found in this Constitution, and we will never alienate our customers or infringe upon their God-given rights.
00:51:41.580 We believe in the right to life for all people, born and unborn.
00:51:45.040 We believe that we should judge each other by the content of our character, not by the color of our skin or these other characteristics.
00:51:50.660 If you sign up as a business and you can agree with those things, it doesn't matter what industry you're in, you're going to be welcome there.
00:51:56.080 And what's very cool, Steve, is that we've got nearly 50,000 businesses from all different industries, whether it be coffee shops, restaurants, hotels, financial planners, banks.
00:52:06.560 You know, Stripe today actually came out and canceled a very famous young men's organization that's trying to teach young men valuable life training skills.
00:52:16.240 They canceled them for toxic masculinity.
00:52:18.800 So what we can do is we can actually offer an alternative to Stripe, multiple alternatives, so that businesses can also receive business services that will allow them to conduct their businesses without fear of cancellation.
00:52:28.340 So no matter where you are on the economic spectrum, we'd love to have you at PublicSQ.com.
00:52:34.800 Seifert, how to get there one more time, and then what's your social media, sir?
00:52:39.620 So our social media is on Instagram, at OfficialPublicSQ.
00:52:43.800 On Twitter, it's at OfficialPSQ.
00:52:46.000 I am at RealMichaelSeifert, and you can find me on all major platforms.
00:52:50.600 And then the best place to find our platform to get started, whether you're a consumer or business, is PublicSQ.com.
00:52:58.340 Michael, thank you very much. Fantastic.
00:53:00.460 Love the company, and people that use it love it, too.
