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 on all these networks lying about the people.
00:00:16.000 The people have had a belly full of it.
00:00:18.000 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.
00:00:22.000 It's going to happen.
00:00:23.000 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
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. Band.
00:00:52.000 We don't measure our success only in terms of how much money we bring in.
00:00:56.000 We measure our success in terms of our impact.
00:00:58.000 Remember Acorn?
00:00:59.000 I don't think I raised a single dollar off that.
00:01:01.000 I had a stack of media coverage to the ceiling.
00:01:04.000 We measure our success in terms of what we produce.
00:01:08.000 Not just in terms of our wallets.
00:01:11.000 That was a pretty fundamental conflict, I felt.
00:01:14.000 The day prior, I had informed him in front of his colleagues that if he wasn't willing to follow my lead,
00:01:19.000 he'd be shown the door.
00:01:21.000 I tried to deal with it privately, but I was unsuccessful, and the disagreement boiled over publicly in a staff meeting.
00:01:28.000 The next day, this individual refused to resign, so I fired him.
00:01:32.000 Later that same day, that's Thursday, February 2nd, a few days after the 50 million viewed visor videos,
00:01:40.000 I was informed by a different officer of Project Veritas that he would go to the board in a few hours from that moment
00:01:47.000 and have an emergency vote to restructure this company.
00:01:50.000 Receiving an agenda in my email while I was sitting on an airplane tarmac with the doors closing,
00:01:56.000 the meeting was scheduled for the moment that my plane landed in Nashville.
00:02:00.000 It became clear to me in that moment I would be removed from my position at Project Veritas by the time I landed at my destination.
00:02:09.000 I bet you didn't know that.
00:02:11.000 I have a copy of the emergency meeting here for you guys to take a look at.
00:02:15.000 It's in writing. You could read it. You don't have to be there. You can read the minutes.
00:02:20.000 They're official board minutes. They're written by a lawyer.
00:02:24.000 My first question on the phone to this guy, my colleague, as I was staring at this agenda,
00:02:30.000 when the stewardess was asking me to get off the phone, was, quote,
00:02:35.000 what are we going to tell our supporters if I'm removed from my position?
00:02:39.000 I think that's the first question. I haven't had a hundred questions, but that was the first one.
00:02:43.000 My colleague, who is an officer of Project Veritas, responded by saying,
00:02:47.000 our supporters wouldn't have to find out.
00:02:52.000 Sounds like something you would get in the Claire McCaskill campaign.
00:02:55.000 It sounds like something you would expose.
00:03:00.000 I was so shocked by this, and again, the stewardess was asking me to get off the phone.
00:03:05.000 I guess you could say that I was in a state of complete shock.
00:03:09.000 How would our supporters not be informed of such an enormous thing?
00:03:13.000 It was a lapse in judgment so severe that it was itself a fireable offense to make a statement like that.
00:03:21.000 It was a lapse in judgment so severe it was impossible to hide my removal from my position at Veritas to anybody.
00:03:28.000 As the CEO and chief fundraiser, I have to explain the context of my role to thousands of people 300 days a year on the road while soliciting them for funds so that I can pay you.
00:03:42.000 And I knew many of our supporters and donors would not like that change.
00:03:46.000 If I was removed from the chief decision-maker at the organization I founded, I share who we are, our vision, our structure, our strategy with everybody.
00:03:55.000 In fact, hiding something so fundamental from people is something that we stand against in principle, particularly with the amount of scrutiny that we're under.
00:04:03.000 The doors closed, the plane took off, but somehow, over the next few hours, I was able to convince the board to push this emergency meeting to that Monday, February the 6th.
00:04:14.000 The very next day, and this is where things get really bizarre.
00:04:21.000 So fasten your seat belts.
00:04:24.000 The very next day, on Friday, this is now Friday, February 3rd, a board member reached out to one of our journalists and stated, quote,
00:04:35.000 You get a raise if there is a restructure without James O'Keefe at Project Veritas.
00:04:40.000 I have a copy of the text message, and I'll give it to all of you.
00:04:45.000 I redacted the name of the journalist.
00:04:49.000 The board member deleted the message, but not before our journalists took screenshots.
00:04:56.000 Good job, journalist.
00:04:59.000 On Sunday, February 5th, now that's Sunday, two days after the Friday, a board member requested my presence at his home.
00:05:09.000 He informed me, quote, you had nothing to do, James, with this Pfizer story, unquote.
00:05:18.000 Perplexed by this, I took out my iPad and showed him a video of myself confronting the Pfizer executive, which had 11 million views on YouTube.
00:05:28.000 He responded, quote, but that was after the undercover video had already been done, unquote.
00:05:34.000 I pointed out that the brave journalist, and many of you know who this person is, I'm not going to name anyone, who recorded the interaction was someone that I had to sit down over a year prior.
00:05:44.000 Remember? Over dinner? For hours.
00:05:47.000 Talking off the proverbial ledge.
00:05:49.000 Insisting he take the long, arduous road to get the story about Pfizer.
00:05:54.000 And indeed he did.
00:05:56.000 The board member responding to me saying that said he did not know that.
00:06:01.000 And admitted that another board member was persuading him to the contrary.
00:06:06.000 In the meeting, that's now the, we're fast forwarding to Monday, two weeks ago.
00:06:11.000 On the sixth, I offered an apology letter to the board for my tone of voice in the office at the leadership meeting the week before.
00:06:19.000 That I intended to also share that apology for my tone of voice with our staff.
00:06:25.000 But the board refused to accept my apology, nor believe that it was sincere.
00:06:32.000 They also did not support my sending it to the staff.
00:06:35.000 I imagine many of you didn't even know that I drafted an apology.
00:06:40.000 Then I was subject to a six and a half hour listing of grievances, which included taking black cars to meetings.
00:06:50.000 I don't know the significance of the color of the vehicle.
00:06:55.000 And taking a few charter jets over the years to pack multiple PV meetings in a day.
00:07:00.000 One of those jets, I think we had a meeting in New York, Wisconsin, and California in the same day.
00:07:05.000 And Bennett raised $2 million.
00:07:09.000 But the revenue part was omitted.
00:07:13.000 There was also some truly bizarre grievances, including my failure to record audio in one encounter at a bar in upstate New York.
00:07:22.000 And an allegation that I stole a pregnant woman's sandwich in federal court.
00:07:29.000 There were also discussions from a few staffers with donors in the boardroom.
00:07:34.000 Donors were listening to some of this.
00:07:36.000 And some of these were sent directly to donors without my consent.
00:07:39.000 Donors who have no knowledge of my personal life and have no business asking questions about my personal life about girls I've dated in the past.
00:07:48.000 A fundraising colleague relayed, and again, this is going to start getting really strange, but I'm...
00:07:57.000 This board meeting was video recorded.
00:08:00.000 We'll get to that in a minute.
00:08:02.000 A fundraising staffer relayed, quote, concerns about my behaviors regarding videos where I, quote, literally chased a Twitter executive around New York.
00:08:14.000 By acclamation from all of you, in 2022, that video about the Twitter chase was one of the most successful videos.
00:08:23.000 But yet, your colleagues in a boardroom were expressing concerns about it.
00:08:29.000 Every board member previously communicated their love of that video, but none pushed back in that moment when the staffer criticized it.
00:08:38.000 Why?
00:08:39.000 The attacks were so severe against me personally in that boardroom.
00:08:45.000 And again, this is all video recorded, and I suggest that you ask for that.
00:08:48.000 I will not provide that to you.
00:08:50.000 The attacks were so severe that one board member asked, quote, is there anything James O'Keefe is good at?
00:08:58.000 That's what your board member said.
00:09:03.000 Oh, and by the way, this meeting was video recorded.
00:09:06.000 I'm going to keep saying that.
00:09:07.000 You may want to ask existing board members if they want to share that entire video with you.
00:09:12.000 I suggest you request the entire seven hour or so video to see for yourself what actually happened.
00:09:20.000 You don't have to have been there.
00:09:22.000 You simply need to watch the video and hear all of the testimony.
00:09:26.000 After the six hours, I was asked what I had to say for myself.
00:09:30.000 I was given about 10 seconds to respond.
00:09:35.000 And then I was dismissed.
00:09:38.000 Then, and I'm reading from board minutes drafted by lawyers who are taking a record of what the board members said and did,
00:09:48.000 a vote was called to strip me of all of my authority and decision making at this organization for half a year.
00:09:54.000 That's 180 days.
00:09:57.000 Again, it's in the board minutes.
00:09:59.000 You'll have a copy of it.
00:10:00.000 It says, quote, the CEO's ability to make these decisions suspended for 180 days with such power transferred to the executive director.
00:10:09.000 The executive director reports to the board.
00:10:11.000 The CEO is placed on leave for two weeks and the CEO's access to donors is restricted.
00:10:16.000 So I can't talk to donors.
00:10:18.000 I can't raise money.
00:10:22.000 Let's see.
00:10:24.000 Okay.
00:10:25.000 My first question before I was dismissed, I asked how the remaining team will manage the company and what the plan was.
00:10:33.000 That's something you had said.
00:10:34.000 What's the plan?
00:10:35.000 But they didn't provide one.
00:10:37.000 It was clear they didn't actually have one.
00:10:41.000 Then I was dismissed.
00:10:43.000 So I went off the grid as requested, went hiking with Kennedy in the mountains.
00:10:52.000 Within a few days of going off the grid, I started receiving missed calls and texts from the same board members and officers who demanded I be gone.
00:11:00.000 They informed the staff that they're waiting to hear from me.
00:11:03.000 I found that odd.
00:11:05.000 There was a corporate resolution demanding that I be gone for two weeks.
00:11:12.000 I was a little worried about violating the corporate resolution.
00:11:15.000 Wouldn't you?
00:11:16.000 This was while I was commanded by a motion of a board to be literally gone on paid leave for two weeks.
00:11:24.000 And then an officer at Project Veritas took a screenshot of my red receipts of text messages and distributed them to you saying,
00:11:32.000 quote, you owe your team a response.
00:11:35.000 Please allow communication.
00:11:37.000 This was during the time when I was required by the board to be gone.
00:11:43.000 Then, it's going to get stranger.
00:11:48.000 Then, and again, I'm going to give you copies of all this.
00:11:51.000 Then, on February 10th, you guys don't know what I'm about to tell you.
00:11:56.000 Another board meeting occurred.
00:11:58.000 Again, I'm gone.
00:12:00.000 With the meeting's minutes reflecting that they had indefinitely suspended me from the board, by this time, they had stripped me of all of my authority as CEO.
00:12:11.000 During the time I was on leave, they kicked me off the board.
00:12:14.000 So, I can't be a CEO if I have no authority.
00:12:17.000 I can't make any decisions.
00:12:18.000 I'm not allowed to access any donor names.
00:12:20.000 I wasn't even sure what my job was or if I even had a job.
00:12:25.000 Right now, I actually don't.
00:12:28.000 I'm not sure what my job here is.
00:12:31.000 In the board minutes, it says that I no longer have a paycheck and I'm indefinitely suspended from this organization.
00:12:41.000 When I left the office, and this is where I'm going to get emotional, so please forgive me.
00:12:45.000 When I left the office on February 6th, after being stripped of all my authority, I saw my father and gave him a hug.
00:12:52.000 Realizing just how honest and real of a man he is.
00:12:57.000 Both my parents are as genuine and down to earth as a son could ever have.
00:13:02.000 It's true you never really know someone until you go through hell with them.
00:13:05.000 You see, back in the carriage house 13 years ago, the feds would come to my home to make sure that I was inside my house administering random drug tests and rifling through my expenses to make sure I wasn't lying about the strawberry ice cream I bought at 7-Eleven.
00:13:25.000 I didn't have any money, but they went through my debit card statements and tried to get me to sign things to prove I wasn't lying.
00:13:34.000 There were federal agents showing up at my parents' house.
00:13:38.000 There were no donors, there were no supporters, and I was not trending on Twitter.
00:13:44.000 My father went through this hell with me and stood up to those bullies on the front lawn and told them to stop harassing our family.
00:13:52.000 And at that point, that's all I had was him.
00:13:58.000 I was otherwise completely alone.
00:14:01.000 I will never forget that.
00:14:05.000 Now the good news, we're no longer alone.
00:14:10.000 We have millions of Americans who do, who also know who I am.
00:14:14.000 In fact, sorry.
00:14:21.000 In fact, you have, and we all have watched their overwhelming support.
00:14:28.000 They see the truth.
00:14:30.000 They know who I am.
00:14:33.000 I also know many of you know who I am, and you know what's right.
00:14:38.000 Right?
00:14:39.000 You know, you're people of principle here.
00:14:42.000 People in this room.
00:14:44.000 And this now may be your moment of truth.
00:14:51.000 You're in the war room.
00:14:52.000 We stand with James O'Keefe, and we'll be back in a moment.
00:14:55.000 Despite the US blowing through $31.4 trillion debt ceiling in January, the leftist White House still refuses to reduce spending.
00:15:07.000 While our national leadership has buried their heads in the sand, when it comes to fiscal responsibility, it's time to pull yours out.
00:15:16.000 Think about this.
00:15:17.000 To dig our country out of this mountain of debt, every single taxpayer in America would have to write a check for $247,000.
00:15:27.000 And it's only going to get worse.
00:15:29.000 Now would be a great time to diversify into gold with Birch Gold.
00:15:33.000 In times of high uncertainty and instability, gold is king because it's dependable.
00:15:39.000 Birch Gold makes it easy to convert an IRA or 401k into an IRA in precious metals.

00:16:25.000 Use your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:16:29.000 Okay, I want to bring in now Dr. Peter Navarro.
00:16:32.000 Peter Navarro, doctor, we've got a whole thing to do with you on Ukraine, China, all of it.
00:16:37.000 Before I get to that, your thoughts on the James O'Keefe of it all.
00:16:42.000 James O'Keefe, Steve, is in my judgment an American hero.
00:16:47.000 And whatever's going on, we need to get to the bottom of it.
00:16:53.000 Something is rotten, as they say, in Denmark.
00:16:58.000 And somebody in special interest land clearly got a hold of that board.
00:17:04.000 For Mr. O'Keefe himself, I hope he takes every single donor from Project Veritas
00:17:10.000 and is up and running within 30 days with another similar effort
00:17:17.000 and brings as many of the good people over at Project Veritas who work for him with him.
00:17:23.000 That would be my dream scenario.
00:17:25.000 And in the meantime, we get to the bottom of this and hold those people on that board accountable.
00:17:30.000 There's no way to treat a man who has exposed the kind of corruption in this country
00:17:36.000 that James O'Keefe has like that.
00:17:39.000 That is just, it's just, I mean, I think everybody, everybody in the posse wants to know what the hell is going on here.
00:17:47.000 But that man is a hero, Steve.
00:17:49.000 Yeah, no, we've got Ed Dowd on about these, the sudden death situation,
00:17:55.000 the stats in back of it in the second hour with Mike Adams from Natural News.
00:17:59.000 I got to tell you, Peter, we're not conspiracy theories here.
00:18:02.000 We always keep up here.
00:18:03.000 There's no conspiracy, no coincidence.
00:18:04.000 I can't believe, I just can't believe that the situation with Pfizer
00:18:09.000 and the magnificent hit that they did on Pfizer is somehow unrelated.
00:18:13.000 This happened at the same time.
00:18:14.000 Yeah, I agree.
00:18:15.000 And no one, no one that had anything to do with O'Keefe being terminated at Veritas
00:18:21.000 will ever have anything to do with the war room.
00:18:23.000 This is, this is going to be war.
00:18:25.000 James O'Keefe is a patron hero.
00:18:27.000 Steve, I want that, I want that video.
00:18:29.000 I want that seven hour video live streamed on Getter.
00:18:32.000 There's no reason why that should be held back.
00:18:34.000 Of the board, yeah.
00:18:35.000 Let's figure out, let's figure out who these people are on that board and let's,
00:18:39.000 let's put Natalie Winters on their tail.
00:18:42.000 Okay.
00:18:43.000 She'll get to them.
00:18:44.000 She'll figure.
00:18:45.000 No, I'm serious.
00:18:46.000 You know, I mean, she is.
00:18:47.000 No.
00:18:48.000 I think the first thing you can do is to put the board meeting.
00:18:51.000 Yeah.
00:18:52.000 No.
00:18:53.000 No.
00:18:54.000 She's tough.
00:18:55.000 She's tough.
00:18:56.000 She's tough.
00:18:57.000 Yeah.
00:18:58.000 She'll find it.
00:18:59.000 She'll find it.
00:19:00.000 I love it.
00:19:01.000 This, this is not.
00:19:02.000 I love that idea.
00:19:03.000 I'll get to James.
00:19:04.000 I love the idea.
00:19:05.000 I love the idea of us streaming that seven hour board meeting and you get all the war
00:19:09.000 and posse to comment on that.
00:19:10.000 Yes.
00:19:11.000 I've got Todd Benzman coming.
00:19:12.000 Let me go ahead and play your call.
00:19:13.000 We're cold.
00:19:14.000 We got a lot.
00:19:15.000 That's Natalie's thing.
00:19:16.000 Find out the interlocking relationship.
00:19:18.000 Yeah.
00:19:19.000 Yeah.
00:19:20.000 Six degrees of separation between those board members and the Pfizer board or whoever it
00:19:26.000 is.
00:19:27.000 Somebody's behind us.
00:19:28.000 It just didn't happen.
00:19:30.000 You don't, you don't have the, you don't have, you don't have, you don't have the hit
00:19:40.000 of, of Pfizer, which what are you saying that it got?
00:19:43.000 I don't know.
00:19:44.000 40 or 50 million views or some incredible amount of views.
00:19:46.000 Yeah.
00:19:47.000 And at the same time, then have this happen out of nowhere.
00:19:49.000 It looks like for no reason.
00:19:50.000 No.
00:19:51.000 Hasn't been a reason.
00:19:52.000 No conspiracies, but no coincidence.
00:19:55.000 And people don't understand what O'Keefe.
00:19:57.000 What O'Keefe does, what, what O'Keefe does is so hard.
00:20:06.000 You know, I've known him since, uh, since Acorn when Andrew Breitbart helped launch it.
00:20:11.000 Him.
00:20:12.000 Unbelievable.
00:20:13.000 What, oh, James O'Keefe and his growth has been incredible.
00:20:15.000 Think about from Acorn all the way to what he just did on Pfizer and the, and the convergence
00:20:19.000 of, of his work on Pfizer and Naomi Wolf's work with the war room posse with the, with
00:20:25.000 the, with the, uh, with the, uh, with the, with the, with the documents have been, this
00:20:29.000 has been the converging factor on, on Pfizer, which we're going to get congressional hearings
00:20:32.000 out of and all of it.
00:20:34.000 If you want to make any progress with the Americans, don't send Tiger Yang.
00:20:40.000 That guy is not a diplomat.
00:20:42.000 He is simply a loud mouth Martinet.
00:20:45.000 I know this firsthand as after the 2016 election and during the transition, Steve Bannon and
00:20:52.000 I, along with Jared Kushner, sat down with Tiger Yang and several other Chinese diplomats
00:20:58.000 for a negotiating session.
00:21:00.000 When Yang tried that crap with us, we shut him right down.
00:21:04.000 Memo to the Biden regime.
00:21:06.000 It is time to decouple economically and politically from communist China.
00:21:11.000 I am reminded here of the Vietnam war when communist China was the arsenal of authoritarianism for
00:21:17.000 Ho Chi Minh.
00:21:19.000 We'd let communist China get away with that then.
00:21:23.000 And tens of thousands of American lives were lost from weapons made in China.
00:21:27.000 And many of our planes were downed over the skies of annoyed by Chinese and yes, Russian missile batteries.
00:21:35.000 Are we really going to let communist China get away with that kind of surrogate war behavior again?
00:21:41.000 Now we are in a situation where tensions continue to rise between the U.S. and Russia as Joe Biden empties out America's weapons arsenals
00:21:51.000 and ships those weapons to Ukraine and then raises what he calls America's defense spending.
00:21:57.000 It's not America's defense spending at all.
00:22:00.000 Rather, we are spending tens of billions of dollars to defend Ukraine's eastern border,
00:22:06.000 even as we spend nothing to stop the invasion of literally millions of illegal aliens on our southern border.
00:22:13.000 Meanwhile, communist China is actively flirting with arming the Russians in a quid pro quo.
00:22:20.000 In their view, how could the Americans protest if they're going to do the same thing to arm Zelensky in Ukraine?
00:22:27.000 By the way, so the the Chinese are in Moscow right now.
00:22:34.000 Tomorrow is going to be Putin's his equivalent State of the Union.
00:22:37.000 Yeah. And Zelensky had just said we just posted on Getter.
00:22:40.000 And I'm trying to get Ben Harnwell in Rome to join us in the six o'clock hour for a couple of minutes.
00:22:44.000 Zelensky just said, wait for it, that if those two work together, it's the beginning of the Third World War.
00:22:50.000 I think Zelensky's comm guys are just lifting right off the worm.
00:22:55.000 They've already been working for a year.
00:22:57.000 Navarre, this is what you got.
00:22:59.000 They've been working since the Olympics when they came out and said we have an unlimited strategic partnership.
00:23:03.000 Peter Navarre.
00:23:04.000 Yeah.
00:23:05.000 Yeah, that cold open, Steve, was from my daily Taking Back Trump's America podcast.
00:23:11.000 It's on Apple and Google podcast.
00:23:13.000 And what I try to do every day is give you a quick, solid seven to ten minutes of what's going on.
00:23:21.000 And you and I both love history here.
00:23:23.000 And it doesn't escape either one of us that the Chi-Coms were arming Vietnam, North Vietnam and the Viet Cong.
00:23:34.000 And it was the weapons from China that killed Americans, just as they did it in the Korean War.
00:23:40.000 The Chinese communists have been killing Americans for a very, very long time.
00:23:45.000 And if they start arming the Russians and Biden keeps doing what he's doing, draining our arsenal of democracy to fight over in Ukraine, it's nothing but another proxy war that we're fighting with the Chinese.
00:24:05.000 I mean, how many times do we have to learn this friggin' lesson?
00:24:09.000 Steve, we need to protect our southern border and we need to use our tax dollars at home and our own defense.
00:24:16.000 And that's the lesson.
00:24:18.000 And it's like nobody apparently in the Biden regime pays any attention whatsoever to history.
00:24:26.000 I think they do, Peter.
00:24:28.000 I think there's something deeper.
00:24:29.000 I think this is why President Trump's announced he's going to East Palestine, Ohio on Wednesday.
00:24:35.000 Yes.
00:24:36.000 Biden's in Kiev.
00:24:37.000 It's the tale of two cities.
00:24:38.000 But a lot of conservatives have been saying, well, what about the southern border?
00:24:41.000 They don't even respond.
00:24:42.000 We're going to have Todd Benzman in studio here in a minute.
00:24:44.000 But, Peter, to my point, they don't care.
00:24:47.000 They're in your grill now.
00:24:48.000 So you understand that the war is against the administrative state here domestically and this third world war that's building on the Eurasian landmass.
00:24:55.000 Dr. Navarro.
00:24:57.000 And what's interesting, again, what I try to do is tie together seemingly unrelated things.
00:25:04.000 In the Taking Back Trump's America podcast, I note that there's really this looming fertilizer crisis, Steve.
00:25:12.000 I mean, we think we're like the farmland superpower around the world, but our Achilles heel is that the one thing crops need besides water the most is fertilizer.
00:25:24.000 And I go through the stats.
00:25:26.000 You get nitrogen, phosphate, and potash.
00:25:30.000 That's the three things that you need to get your crops fertilized.
00:25:34.000 China is the world leader.
00:25:36.000 China.
00:25:37.000 Communist China is the world leader in both phosphate and nitrogen.
00:25:44.000 And Russia is, like, close to number two in potash.
00:25:48.000 And they're getting together, doing their thing.
00:25:50.000 And so this Ukraine war, it's driving up the price of eggs and vegetables and meat for the American people.
00:25:57.000 That's Joe Biden doing it.
00:25:59.000 Here's the thing.
00:26:00.000 There's a beautiful line, Steve, in President Trump's 2016 jobs plan speech about how everything that's going on is a politician-made disaster.
00:26:09.000 It was in the inauguration speech as well.
00:26:11.000 Well, that's what we have here, Steve.
00:26:13.000 Everything that's happening to us is the fault of people like Joe Biden and Pete Buttigieg and the people, the millies at the Pentagon who were giving the bad advice about it.
00:26:26.000 I mean, these, as you said in the morning show, Steve, elections have consequences.
00:26:33.000 Stolen elections have catastrophic consequences.
00:26:36.000 The catastrophic consequences now is Communist China aligning with Russia.
00:26:43.000 As you point out in the morning show, Iran's going to come in and align with Saudi Arabia to get the Eurasian landmass and the whole Middle East aligning against Joe Biden's America.
00:26:55.000 Don't want to live in that world.
00:26:57.000 Unbelievable.
00:26:58.000 And it's just one bad mistake after, and look, it's the deplorables.
00:27:04.000 It's the Trump deplorables.
00:27:06.000 They're the ones that are always taking in the shorts.
00:27:08.000 They're the ones, Steve, that go fight the wars.
00:27:10.000 They're the ones who pay higher taxes in the form of inflation as their real wages go down.
00:27:17.000 They're the ones who see the foreclosures and the rent spike because frigging hedge fund managers are going out and buying up all the apartment buildings.
00:27:26.000 Trump's America.
00:27:27.000 That's what I'm trying to get back to.
00:27:29.000 Taking back Trump's America.
00:27:30.000 It's a podcast, a book, and what my mission is, Steve, going right to November of 2024 because if we don't turn this around, it's over.
00:27:38.000 Amen.
00:27:39.000 It's over, brother.
00:27:40.000 It's over.
00:27:41.000 The new Secretary of Treasury, Peter Navarro, it is definitely over.
00:27:44.000 Real quickly, your handle, a social media handle, real quick.
00:27:47.000 Yeah.
00:27:48.000 Getter, Twitter, Real P Navarro, True Social, Peter Navarro.
00:27:53.000 Apple, Google Podcasts, Taking Back Trump's America.
00:27:56.000 Let's drive that thing up in the top 20 now.

00:29:13.000 Your host, Stephen K. Banff.
00:29:19.000 Okay, welcome back.
00:29:20.000 We're very honored to have Todd Benz.
00:29:22.000 I asked Todd to come over.
00:29:23.000 He's got a big event tomorrow at the National Press Club about the launch of the new book.
00:29:29.000 But, okay, Biden's over in Ukraine.
00:29:33.000 There's a tale of two cities.
00:29:34.000 You know, nobody in his administration has gone to East Palestine, Ohio.
00:29:39.000 But the criticism he's getting is that he talked about the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine.
00:29:48.000 And people are lighting him up about the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the United States on the southern border.
00:29:54.000 Do we have – and the reason I asked you to come over here because you're the expert.
00:29:58.000 Do we have control of the southern border?
00:30:00.000 Do we have territorial integrity on the southern border of our country, sir?
00:30:05.000 The least I've ever seen it in all the years I've been watching that border.
00:30:10.000 It has changed recently because they have run a new pipeline under the rug where you can't see it, where nobody can see it.
00:30:19.000 But trust me, as many people are crossing in into the United States as they were before, they're just being redirected into this secret pipeline.
00:30:30.000 Thousands of them are actually flying from foreign airports into our interior airports.
00:30:36.000 You can't see this at all.
00:30:38.000 But they are coming in.
00:30:40.000 And the runner situation is out of control because a lot of the illegals are not qualifying for this new under the rug pipeline thing that they've come up with.
00:30:55.000 So they're running.
00:30:56.000 Or they don't want to wait.
00:30:58.000 In Mexico, the lines for this thing?
00:31:00.000 The humanitarian parole.
00:31:01.000 Humanitarian parole.
00:31:02.000 You're the first one to nail that.
00:31:04.000 The humanitarian parole, X amount or not, and they know there's going to be a tough shot to get in.
00:31:09.000 They're guys trying to cross completely illegally.
00:31:12.000 In other words, not checking with anybody.
00:31:13.000 Oh, yeah.
00:31:14.000 Yeah.
00:31:15.000 There is a – I'm hearing from sources.
00:31:17.000 I haven't been down there yet, but I am hearing from sources that they are running and gunning everywhere, especially in South Texas and in the El Paso sector, Arizona east of Tucson.
00:31:31.000 I talked to some border patrol officials out there just the other day who were describing just pandemonium.
00:31:39.000 Every other vehicle has got illegals in it because they don't want to wait in that Mexico situation.
00:31:48.000 Or they – if they try, they're not going to qualify for it or whatever and they know it because they've got criminal history in the US.
00:31:55.000 So there is that part of the border, but then there are other sections where they give up.
00:32:01.000 Remember, there are tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands used to just give up.
00:32:07.000 Well, now they're waiting in Mexico.
00:32:09.000 So there is a little bit more appearance of order, but they're all coming in.
00:32:15.000 Everybody gets in.
00:32:16.000 Everybody gets in.
00:32:17.000 That's the thing to remember here.
00:32:19.000 And they will be illegal a year or two from now when their tickets run up.
00:32:24.000 So the total number of illegals living inside the United States is just jacked up.
00:32:33.000 It's going to go way up.
00:32:34.000 The book title is Overrun, right?
00:32:36.000 It's the –
00:32:37.000 Overrun How Joe Biden Unleashed the Greatest Border Crisis in US History.
00:32:42.000 Is the intention – you know everybody worth knowing in regards to the border, whether it's Border Patrol, people down there.
00:32:49.000 This has been your beat for a long time.
00:32:51.000 You were Texas – if you don't realize, you were DPS intelligence.
00:32:54.000 Texas DPS.
00:32:55.000 Intelligence branch.
00:32:57.000 So you've been at this a long time.
00:32:59.000 Is there any doubt in your mind that this is being done consciously by the Biden regime to effectuate something?
00:33:07.000 Let's leave that off for a second.
00:33:08.000 But this is a conscious decision.
00:33:10.000 This just didn't happen.
00:33:12.000 It's incredibly purposeful.
00:33:14.000 This is intentional.
00:33:16.000 They know exactly what they're doing.
00:33:18.000 They've been fighting internally about what they're doing.
00:33:20.000 That's how we know for sure.
00:33:22.000 There's good reporting.
00:33:24.000 My book's got a whole chapter called White House Insurgency where some of the moderates tried to seize back control of the portfolio, the immigration portfolio.
00:33:34.000 They know damn well what they're doing and they like it and want it.
00:33:39.000 They like it and want it.
00:33:40.000 You mean the radicals.
00:33:41.000 The quote-unquote moderates tried to take it back for political reasons about how bad it is.
00:33:45.000 That's right.
00:33:46.000 And how the American people are against this.
00:33:48.000 Even Democrats are against this.
00:33:49.000 Yes.
00:33:50.000 And Hispanic Americans are against this.
00:33:51.000 Yes.
00:33:52.000 They failed.
00:33:53.000 Their war failed.
00:33:54.000 And the…
00:33:55.000 Why was that?
00:33:56.000 Why did the radicals win?
00:33:58.000 I don't…
00:34:00.000 I don't fully know the story.
00:34:02.000 We need to…
00:34:03.000 Like I need…
00:34:04.000 I need Ron Klein to call me right now.
00:34:07.000 But…
00:34:08.000 And Susan Price.
00:34:09.000 Those guys…
00:34:10.000 Rice, Rice, Rice.
00:34:11.000 Rice, I'm sorry.
00:34:12.000 If I could get a hold of those guys, we'd have the full story.
00:34:14.000 But in the end…
00:34:15.000 She's from more of the radical group and Klein is from more of the moderate group.
00:34:19.000 Well, they're both kind of moderate compared to these guys, these other guys that are in there.
00:34:24.000 But…
00:34:25.000 When you say Susan Rice is a moderate, that's…
00:34:27.000 I'll tell…
00:34:28.000 You just told me everything I need to know.
00:34:29.000 Exactly.
00:34:30.000 Everything I need to know.
00:34:31.000 Almost radical people in America.
00:34:32.000 Exactly.
00:34:33.000 But…
00:34:34.000 But I…
00:34:35.000 My spec…
00:34:36.000 My informed speculation is that Alejandro Mayorkas intervened in a…
00:34:41.000 In a power vacuum of Joe Biden sort of not quite being there mentally or…
00:34:48.000 Like I…
00:34:49.000 I…
00:34:50.000 I'm not a doctor, but I don't…
00:34:51.000 I think that there's a power vacuum in.
00:34:53.000 Mayorkas took advantage and Mayorkas is from that far, far left fringe…
00:35:00.000 I call it the migrant advocacy industrial complex.
00:35:05.000 These are the guys, the NGOs that are making hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars
00:35:09.000 off of this thing.
00:35:11.000 He's from that world and he is the man.
00:35:16.000 He reinforced all of these laws and made sure…
00:35:20.000 I mean all of these bogus policies that they just…
00:35:24.000 The workarounds from the law.
00:35:26.000 The workarounds from the law.
00:35:28.000 He's the one that has put those into place.
00:35:31.000 He's…
00:35:32.000 He's an architect of those things.
00:35:34.000 He's the one who went down to the Darien Gap and made the short route with the Panamanians,
00:35:39.000 which I reported months and months ago, like last year.
00:35:43.000 And he's the one that made the short route from…
00:35:47.000 Through Mexico, southern Mexico too.
00:35:49.000 Cut a deal.
00:35:50.000 Blinken also, he and Blinken went down there.
00:35:53.000 And I believe that he just sort of overrode the moderates inside the White House.
00:35:58.000 We've got a whole chapter on…
00:36:00.000 So he…
00:36:01.000 There's no doubt in your mind, given how he did the workaround on the law, that his impeachment
00:36:08.000 is fully justified.
00:36:10.000 And they'll show the evidence to that.
00:36:13.000 I believe that he has broken the constitutional requirement as the senior law enforcement officer in this country
00:36:23.000 and in the executive branch to make sure that they follow congressional will.
00:36:31.000 That's in the Constitution.
00:36:33.000 And they're not doing that on purpose.
00:36:35.000 Because of the laws.
00:36:36.000 They know that they're not doing it.
00:36:38.000 And if somebody wants to do impeachment, I think that they're moving toward that.
00:36:43.000 I don't know how much support there is.
00:36:44.000 I think it would be obviously with a split in the chambers, you know, it can only go so far.
00:36:52.000 But I think it's useful.
00:36:53.000 But the senators will have a tough time.
00:36:56.000 They'll have to go on record.
00:36:57.000 The John Tessers and these guys will have a tough time voting against that if it comes up.
00:37:01.000 They'll have to go on record one way or another.
00:37:03.000 But I…
00:37:04.000 How did he…
00:37:05.000 It begs the question, why was his nomination not fought harder in the Senate by McConnell
00:37:10.000 and these guys?
00:37:11.000 I think there might have been a sense of, hey, let's try to finally, you know, work together
00:37:16.000 and be…
00:37:17.000 The bipartisanship stuff.
00:37:18.000 The bipartisanship stuff.
00:37:19.000 And they led a radical who's the most radical you've ever seen.
00:37:22.000 He has a lot of problems.
00:37:24.000 He's got ethical problems, too.
00:37:25.000 I wrote a huge piece on him when he was nominated.
00:37:29.000 When he was a U.S. attorney out in California, he was doing favors for friends who were in prison of powerful Democrats.
00:37:43.000 When he was the head of the USCIS, he also overrode rejections of the EB-5 visas for…
00:37:54.000 That is for the business…
00:37:55.000 Yeah.
00:37:56.000 …business visas for Hollywood moguls.
00:37:58.000 By your way in.
00:37:59.000 Right.
00:38:00.000 He overrode those one after another.
00:38:02.000 He did a lot of those for powerful Democratic figures.
00:38:06.000 Yeah, we try to shut that down, all of it.
00:38:08.000 Right.
00:38:09.000 I mean I'm surprised he didn't.
00:38:11.000 He didn't.
00:38:12.000 But I mean all of this to me is grist for the mill.
00:38:16.000 The other thing is the fentanyl.
00:38:17.000 Why is it in this regime is the fentanyl now obviously out of control?
00:38:23.000 Is it because of the demographic that fentanyl basically hits and kills?
00:38:27.000 Or why is this situation…
00:38:30.000 You hear more talk about it than ever.
00:38:32.000 The cartels are making more money than ever.
00:38:35.000 It's getting worse than ever.
00:38:36.000 How can it be getting worse when it's supposed to be all this attention on it?
00:38:39.000 Well, first of all, drug trafficking of all kinds is what we call in Homeland Security
00:38:45.000 a wicked problem.
00:38:47.000 Even in the best of times when Trump was in office, when Republicans are doing the right
00:38:52.000 thing on the border, it's tough.
00:38:54.000 I think it gets a lot worse when you have no control over the border, when you have no
00:38:58.000 operational control of any sort.
00:39:01.000 But the issue with fentanyl in my view really is that it's not like the administration is
00:39:07.000 doing nothing.
00:39:09.000 They are doing some things with respect to the precursor drugs diplomatically with China
00:39:15.000 and India and some of the others.
00:39:17.000 The problem is that it's not…
00:39:19.000 What they're doing is not universally applied to the whole supply chain.
00:39:24.000 And it gets manufactured.
00:39:25.000 There are these pill mills in Mexico.
00:39:28.000 And they're just letting the Mexicans off the hook.
00:39:31.000 Just letting them off the hook.
00:39:33.000 Nobody knows why they're doing that.
00:39:35.000 Maybe they're…
00:39:36.000 Well, they must be on the payroll.
00:39:37.000 There's got to be money.
00:39:38.000 There's got to be money.
00:39:39.000 Things just don't happen.
00:39:40.000 Also, Obrador, Lopez Obrador down there is a hugs, not bullets kind of guy to start
00:39:49.000 with.
00:39:50.000 So even if we…
00:39:51.000 I mean, we just don't…
00:39:53.000 We don't twist Mexican arms like the Trump people did.
00:39:57.000 For the border patrol, the people on the border and the people working this problem every
00:40:01.000 day and getting overrun, when they see all the attention, they see Biden flying in to
00:40:06.000 Ukraine and promising $500 million and billions more of AIDS.
00:40:10.000 And the one thing, if he comes to the border for an hour, it's some stage thing, then he's
00:40:15.000 right out.
00:40:16.000 What is the attitude and the morale of people that have to deal with this problem?
00:40:19.000 Oh, man.
00:40:20.000 It is just…
00:40:21.000 I've never seen it.
00:40:23.000 Never seen so much anger.
00:40:24.000 I spent a lot of time with those guys.
00:40:27.000 Those are salt of the earth, frontline defenders.
00:40:32.000 I just love and respect the border patrol and everybody should.
00:40:38.000 And they are furious.
00:40:40.000 They have been furious for two years straight.
00:40:44.000 They're losing them left and right.
00:40:47.000 There's a lot of attrition going on because they don't feel like this administration backs
00:40:53.000 them.
00:40:54.000 There have been too many…
00:40:55.000 I mean, the whole horse thing with the Del Rio camp and stuff like that.
00:40:59.000 Man, they don't forget…
00:41:00.000 The lariats.
00:41:01.000 Mayorkas shows up at their things wearing a border patrol uniform with a badge and it's
00:41:06.000 just like, what are you doing, sir?
00:41:08.000 Take that off.
00:41:09.000 You didn't earn that.
00:41:10.000 Wow.
00:41:11.000 That kind of stuff.
00:41:12.000 I mean, really…
00:41:14.000 No friends down there on the border patrol.
00:41:16.000 We've got a couple of minutes.
00:41:17.000 Tomorrow is a big event for you.
00:41:18.000 What's the event?
00:41:19.000 We're going to be covering it.
00:41:20.000 What's the event?
00:41:21.000 And then tell us about the book.
00:41:22.000 Okay.
00:41:23.000 So, tomorrow the book releases finally.
00:41:25.000 You and I have been talking about that for months.
00:41:27.000 I appreciate that.
00:41:28.000 And…
00:41:29.000 I love the book.
00:41:30.000 It's finally out tomorrow in bookstores and Center for Immigration Studies, which
00:41:37.000 supported me in the writing of this thing and all the reporting.
00:41:40.000 Sent me down there.
00:41:41.000 Paid the bills and all that.
00:41:42.000 That's great.
00:41:43.000 We're having a National Press Club rollout for this.
00:41:48.000 But it's not just buy my book, buy my book.
00:41:50.000 I've got great co-panelists that are going to be at the event tomorrow morning at 930.
00:41:56.000 Chuck Holton, who lives and breathes Darien Gap.
00:42:01.000 Yeah.
00:42:02.000 Michael Young's a great man.
00:42:03.000 He's based down there in…
00:42:05.000 He and I have traveled together a lot down on the trails.
00:42:09.000 And Charlotte Culberson of the Epoch Times, who lives in Bracketville, Texas.
00:42:14.000 Yeah, she's amazing.
00:42:15.000 Right.
00:42:16.000 And remember I told you about all the runners and gotaways?
00:42:18.000 Yeah.
00:42:19.000 She's incredible.
00:42:20.000 She's in the middle of that.
00:42:21.000 She's incredible.
00:42:22.000 Yeah, she's in the middle of that.
00:42:23.000 It's extreme.
00:42:24.000 We'll pick it up to start the show tomorrow.
00:42:25.000 We start at 10.
00:42:26.000 Fantastic.
00:42:27.000 The book is amazing.
00:42:28.000 Thank you.
00:42:29.000 Only you could write it.
00:42:30.000 Thank you.
00:42:31.000 It is…
00:42:32.000 And it's neat now more than ever because if people think we're just going to lay down
00:42:35.000 and just have Biden steamroll us, you're absolutely incorrect about this.
00:42:41.000 If you don't secure the southern border, we don't have a nation.
00:42:43.000 You agree with that, Todd Bensman?
00:42:45.000 Totally.
00:42:46.000 That is a basic issue of sovereignty, national sovereignty.
00:42:50.000 The Todd Bensman in the war room.
00:42:52.000 Tomorrow, the launch of the book at the National Press Club big event.
00:42:55.000 Todd, thank you so much.
00:42:56.000 We'll pick it up tomorrow.
00:42:57.000 Thank you.

00:45:34.000 She just came from Peru.
00:45:35.000 Amazing.
00:45:36.000 We're coming here from Columbus, Ohio.
00:45:37.000 We're coming from Ohio.
00:45:39.000 Okay.
00:45:40.000 Welcome.
00:45:41.000 We're going to go to Ben Burquam, Real America's Voice.
00:45:43.000 He's out there at the Ashbury University Revival.
00:45:47.000 Ben, you've got Lindy Ann Hopley, one of the pastors and preachers out there.
00:45:51.000 Welcome.
00:45:52.000 Put us in the room.
00:45:53.000 What's going on?
00:45:54.000 What's the latest?
00:45:55.000 Well, you know, it's an amazing thing.
00:45:57.000 You saw that little intro with all the people from all over the world.
00:46:00.000 This is a global phenomenon now.
00:46:03.000 And to me, it really is just it's showing the hunger of people for the Lord.
00:46:07.000 There's so much darkness.
00:46:08.000 And you just had Todd Benzman on talking about the border and sovereignty and the cartels
00:46:12.000 owning Joe Biden and the left and all of this stuff while Joe's over there in Ukraine,
00:46:16.000 ignoring what's happening in Ohio.
00:46:18.000 All of it's connected.
00:46:19.000 But Lindy Ann, you're out here.
00:46:21.000 You run beautiful witness ministries.
00:46:23.000 And this is talk to us about what's happening, what this means to you and what it should mean
00:46:27.000 to the audience.
00:46:28.000 What do you want to see God do here?
00:46:29.000 This is so exciting because this is what we have been praying for.
00:46:32.000 I mean, all around the world, we know it's revival or bust.
00:46:36.000 I mean, and revival is when the dead comes back to life.
00:46:39.000 And America especially has looked pretty dead.
00:46:41.000 And, you know, the enemy has just been overplaying his card and really showcasing his, you know,
00:46:47.000 at the Grammys, we saw like dress up like Satan and this and that.
00:46:50.000 And what's so beautiful, Bob Jones, the prophet had prophesied that when the Chiefs won the Super Bowl
00:46:55.000 and there will be a revival comes out and he actually passed away on Valentine's Day.
00:46:59.000 Now in the week of the Chiefs winning Valentine's happening, a revival breaks out.
00:47:04.000 And I'm like, that's not the only thing.
00:47:06.000 I came here three years ago.
00:47:07.000 I was going to come for 20 days to America.
00:47:08.000 God started giving me prophetic dreams about revival coming to America.
00:47:10.000 And he said, Linian, you have to stay.
00:47:11.000 You're here for such a time as this.
00:47:13.000 And I'm just one of thousands that have heard the Lord's voice.
00:47:16.000 And this is so crazy because Gen Z has been under so much attack.
00:47:19.000 If anyone we thought was the lost generation was going to be them, not for our God.
00:47:23.000 Nothing is impossible.
00:47:24.000 Right now, there are lines of young people lining up.
00:47:27.000 There has been yesterday at 10 a.m.
00:47:30.000 There were already 25,000 people here.
00:47:32.000 Never mind all the hundreds of thousands that have been here right through the whole thing.
00:47:36.000 So it's just incredible what God is doing.
00:47:38.000 You can't make this stuff up.
00:47:39.000 His name is exalted.
00:47:40.000 He's drawing all men unto himself.
00:47:42.000 And it is just phenomenal.
00:47:45.000 And people just don't stop worshiping.
00:47:46.000 I got in bed 3.30 last night, 4.30 the night before.
00:47:49.000 I mean, you're just like, we're so hungry.
00:47:52.000 We stood in line.
00:47:53.000 I stood in line three and a half hours in snow.
00:47:55.000 I mean, it's amazing.
00:47:57.000 Yeah, it's amazing.
00:47:58.000 And that's the whole idea, Steve.
00:47:59.000 It's that this is a spark of something much bigger that the world needs.
00:48:04.000 And especially this generation needs.
00:48:06.000 Ben, ask Linian, where does it go from here?
00:48:09.000 Is it going to stay active at the university?
00:48:12.000 Is it spreading to other colleges?
00:48:14.000 Because we know people all over the world are coming.
00:48:16.000 Where does it go from here?
00:48:18.000 Linian, I know you just lost some comms there.
00:48:20.000 But so the question is where Steve is asking is, where does it go from here?
00:48:23.000 What do you see happening going forward?
00:48:25.000 And where do you see the Lord taking this?
00:48:27.000 You know, it's crazy.
00:48:28.000 This revival started on Wednesday, Sunday, all around America and around the world.
00:48:34.000 People started having a breakout in their churches.
00:48:36.000 Pastors.
00:48:37.000 I was talking to pastors here.
00:48:38.000 They said Sunday in our church, something just broke out.
00:48:41.000 Things just started happening.
00:48:42.000 We saw Daniel Kalina from CFAN, huge ministry.
00:48:44.000 They said they already started something in their church.
00:48:46.000 And some people didn't even know about this revival.
00:48:48.000 And so I don't know.
00:48:49.000 Chicken, egg, God just kind of moving.
00:48:51.000 But it's like something just started sparking all around the world.
00:48:54.000 We had news of 20 other revivals breaking out in just a few days.
00:48:57.000 Different universities.
00:48:58.000 The same thing happening.
00:48:59.000 Campuses, youth just going crazy.
00:49:01.000 And now having rumors just that everywhere.
00:49:04.000 I was in an interview with a radio station from South Africa this morning.
00:49:08.000 And they're like, we're so hungry.
00:49:09.000 Tell us what's happening.
00:49:10.000 What's happening.
00:49:11.000 This is truly the hope of the nations that we're seeing breaking out.
00:49:14.000 People need Jesus in this hour.
00:49:16.000 We know that there's no other option.
00:49:18.000 And I love what the message is here.
00:49:19.000 A lot of it, they talking about a beautiful gravesite.
00:49:22.000 Just dying to self saying, Lord, is there anything else I need to surrender?
00:49:25.000 Just an actual rule coming back.
00:49:28.000 There's no famous pastor here.
00:49:30.000 No famous worship band.
00:49:31.000 No one is known.
00:49:32.000 Everyone has just come for Jesus.
00:49:34.000 And that's what makes it so beautiful.
00:49:36.000 And I believe that this is just the beginning.
00:49:38.000 The Lord spoke to me because I'm a more miracle signs and wonders ministry.
00:49:41.000 So I was like, God, okay, there's worship.
00:49:43.000 There's repentance.
00:49:44.000 There's this.
00:49:45.000 I said, where's the miracles, the wheelchairs, the dead coming back to life.
00:49:48.000 And he said, Lindy Ann, my word says, if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and turn from their wicked ways, I will heal here from heaven.
00:49:58.000 He said, that's what's happening right now.
00:49:59.000 This is just the beginning.
00:50:00.000 He said, and then I will heal their land.
00:50:03.000 And I believe this is just the beginning of what God wants to do.
