00:00:00.000 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
00:00:07.340 Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.
00:00:12.560 I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
00:00:16.840 The people have had a belly full of it.
00:00:18.780 I know you don't like hearing that.
00:00:20.200 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that,
00:00:21.940 but you're not going to stop it.
00:00:22.860 It's going to happen.
00:00:24.120 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
00:00:27.520 Mega Media.
00:00:28.440 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:00:34.320 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:00:38.080 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:00:44.360 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban.
00:00:52.840 Brazil?
00:00:54.200 Brazil?
00:00:55.120 Brazil?
00:00:55.980 Peru.
00:00:56.180 Peru, Peru.
00:00:57.760 China.
00:00:58.440 China?
00:00:59.000 Do you speak English?
00:01:01.280 English?
00:01:02.660 A little.
00:01:03.600 A little. Yeah, perfect.
00:01:05.240 Where in China?
00:01:08.320 Beijing? Where from China?
00:01:10.420 Shenzhen.
00:01:11.160 Shenzhen.
00:01:11.620 Shenzhen, yeah.
00:01:12.560 How long did it take to get here?
00:01:20.520 China?
00:01:21.120 China.
00:01:22.000 China, China?
00:01:23.940 A month?
00:01:25.080 A month.
00:01:25.520 A big group said they've already had close to 300 tonight.
00:01:30.980 The second group that they've had.
00:01:33.580 And now, you know, you see the Border Patrol assets that are having to be utilized here.
00:01:39.780 The cars, the personnel, the cars, the personnel, and what they worry about is where are there groups of one or two or four that are coming through while everyone's focused on, you know, the immigration processing here.
00:01:52.360 So, essentially, the reservation here, right?
00:01:55.840 It begins.
00:01:56.400 And then right where that car is driving, Matt, just this side, there's a large date grove of trees right there.
00:02:03.700 And inside of that is one of the drop houses.
00:02:06.420 And so, they will come from the Mexicali airport, they will wait right there, and then they will cross in groups.
00:02:12.480 How many people do you think have been processed through that drop house?
00:02:15.380 Oh, my gosh.
00:02:15.580 Because you and I have been to this exact spot.
00:02:17.560 500,000 people.
00:02:19.760 Through one little house.
00:02:20.600 At a minimum of $6,000 a person.
00:02:23.680 Right?
00:02:24.420 At a minimum.
00:02:25.280 More from different countries of origin.
00:02:29.980 And this is where, Matt, they've been able to ascertain that we have enemies of the state that are crossing right here, and this is where they've been able to weed them out on that first scan.
00:02:40.860 And how many hours will most of these people be released in the entire...
00:02:44.800 48 hours.
00:02:45.820 48 hours.
00:02:47.020 I mean, the 100-plus, certainly, that you see here will be walking among our fellow Americans.
00:02:52.580 And many of these people get super impatient when it takes longer than 48 hours, because they have plans, Matt.
00:02:58.420 They put their life on hold, and they get upset when they have to go through this process.
00:03:02.580 We could forbid we deal with their plans.
00:03:04.880 The bottom line is, one way or the other, they get released in the interior of our country.
00:03:09.320 Now, while we see this group of, which will be probably 550 to 650 today, that would be representative of a 20% number, Matt, that we talked about before, that are somewhere out there who are evading police.
00:03:28.420 They're not giving themselves up.
00:03:30.380 Those are the gotaways.
00:03:31.400 Those are the people who are coming here with nefarious purposes.
00:03:34.760 Who are they?
00:03:35.540 Where are they going?
00:03:36.300 And we've got more than 1.2 million of those people that have come across in the last 20 months.
00:03:40.920 China?
00:03:41.900 Thank you.
00:03:42.500 Yeah.
00:03:43.080 China?
00:03:43.620 Thank you.
00:03:45.120 Thank you.
00:03:46.880 He's my mother-in-law.
00:03:48.320 Thank you.
00:03:49.840 What do you make of that, Matt?
00:03:51.360 I mean, there's...
00:03:51.660 This is the first time I've seen Chinese at the border.
00:03:54.280 We've been hearing from the local officials that they're paying a far higher rate to the coyotes, and so they're, you know, more precious cargo.
00:04:04.800 It costs the coyotes the same amount to move somebody over that they're charging, you know, $7,000, and some of them are charging $70,000.
00:04:11.240 And tens of thousands of dollars for the Chinese to be able to get over.
00:04:16.840 And now the Border Patrol agent I just spoke to indicated that there are Chinese in almost every group.
00:04:21.400 It used to be you'd get the Salvadorian group, the Guatemalan group.
00:04:26.980 Now, I mean, here you had Nepalese, Indian, Colombians, Peruvians, folks from all over, Brazilians, and this new trend to have Chinese in every group.
00:04:42.340 That's got to concern our country.
00:04:44.200 When President Trump were in office, how much different would it be?
00:04:46.200 Well, when President Trump were in office, we actually put downward pressure on this illegal migration, and we had to have tough policies, and we had to work with nations that had been taking advantage of us.
00:04:59.720 And they had to take back their expats, or they saw impact on foreign aid and other diplomatic impact.
00:05:09.260 And so we actually used the full power of our country to preserve our sovereignty rather than allowing it to be extinguished and diminished.
00:05:17.880 Absolutely stunning, stunning video.
00:05:22.320 We're going to get Ben Burkwam from Real America's Voice, who, by the way, has not had sleep.
00:05:26.300 Talk about a guy that needs his MyPillop 2.0.
00:05:29.180 He has not had any sleep, doing an amazing job.
00:05:31.900 And he's Palestinian.
00:05:32.820 Then get on the plane, get there at 3 in the morning, and then outdo the Yuma coverage all day yesterday.
00:05:37.800 Incredible.
00:05:38.320 A couple of hits on here and hits all over the Real America Voice channel.
00:05:41.740 And then to stay up all night and go out overnight with Matt Gaetz.
00:05:46.060 But before I get to Ben, I've got to go back to Cortez.
00:05:49.500 Cortez, this really is your wheelhouse of everything.
00:05:52.880 You were the guy that first identified this, et cetera.
00:05:55.280 And I want the audience to understand something.
00:05:56.880 The world is laughing at us.
00:05:59.000 When I say laughing at us now, you've got to take it personally.
00:06:00.920 They're laughing at me, and they're laughing at you.
00:06:03.040 Because we tolerate politicians that allow this.
00:06:05.480 This is a joke.
00:06:06.700 This is a sick joke.
00:06:08.400 And the other thing, the other Barry Lee there, Senjen is a garden spot.
00:06:12.880 Senjen is near Old Canton, right on the mainland side from Hong Kong.
00:06:18.240 That is the Silicon Valley of, you know, it's one of the Silicon Valley, as you say.
00:06:25.080 But it's a garden spot in China.
00:06:27.220 You don't think those folks know that things are bad over there and it's going to get a lot worse when the shooting war starts over Taiwan?
00:06:32.680 They're heading out, baby.
00:06:33.840 If they've got to go through Mexico, they've got to go through Mexico.
00:06:36.900 But they're getting out.
00:06:38.720 Steve Cortez, why does that video right there speak to everything that is currently wrong with this country right now, sir?
00:06:47.000 Right.
00:06:47.480 Well, this is such troubling but really important footage for the audience to see.
00:06:52.080 Because the reality is that if we don't have a border, we don't have a country.
00:06:56.140 And effectively right now, the U.S. border has been vaporized by the choices of Joe Biden.
00:07:01.320 And not only is that dangerous and reckless for our country, but I'm also glad that the great Congressman Gates there mentioned and the Border Patrol folks mentioned that it's one of the biggest transfers of money, of wealth, and power in all of human history from these illegal migrants to the Mexican cartels.
00:07:17.400 They said a minimum of $6,000 per person times thousands of people per day.
00:07:24.600 The Mexican cartels, which were already wealthy and powerful, are becoming much more powerful now than the Mexican government.
00:07:32.240 And think of the long-term risks of that, of having a true narco state with absolute piles of cash from these illegal migrants that we have allowed into our country who must pay them an exorbitant toll for permission to come into our country.
00:07:47.840 Imagine the power of those cartels and the dangers for the United States of having that right on our border, if not across our border in the United States.
00:07:55.980 Now, thankfully, the American people are starting to turn markedly against Joe Biden's recklessness and his open border.
00:08:03.340 If we can pull up chart number one, please, I want to show polling.
00:08:06.340 This was from a story put out by Axios.
00:08:08.260 And, Steve, you know Axios is basically a PR agency for corporate America.
00:08:12.880 So they don't like to put stories like this out.
00:08:14.560 But even they were willing to acknowledge, and this was their headline, Americans turn against immigration.
00:08:19.300 So this is polling data showing Republicans, independents, and Democrats, polling data going back 20 years, saying, do you want decreased immigration to the United States?
00:08:29.320 So primarily here, Steve, speaking about legal migration.
00:08:32.040 Forget about the illegal, which, of course, there should be zero tolerance.
00:08:35.760 This is legal immigration to the United States.
00:08:37.560 And notice that among Republicans, first of all, in every group since Biden took office, you see on the far right side of that chart a marked upsert, right, groups wanting decreased immigration to the United States.
00:08:50.480 Among Republicans, we're now at 71 percent, wanting decreased immigration to the United States.
00:08:56.020 We're nearing almost a unanimous opinion.
00:08:58.540 But even among independents, that number has almost doubled.
00:09:01.740 When Biden took office, only 20 percent of independents wanted decreased immigration.
00:09:05.940 It's now 36 percent.
00:09:08.020 And even among Democrats, Steve, the number was almost zero when it decreased immigration when Joe Biden took office.
00:09:14.440 It has now shut up to 19 percent.
00:09:16.560 It's obviously nowhere near where Republicans are.
00:09:18.580 But still, the trend here is aggressively higher, meaning wanting sovereignty for this country, wanting decreased immigration to the United States.
00:09:27.440 Totally understandable to connect this discussion to our prior one.
00:09:31.020 Totally understandable in a time of tremendous economic anxiety, Steve.
00:09:34.460 When real wages are crashing in the United States for American citizens, the worst economic idea I can think of is importing millions of new workers to compete unlawfully and unjustly in the labor market against American citizens, further depressing wages for our country.
00:09:49.820 So Americans are waking up to this reality.
00:09:52.880 The trend is in our favor.
00:09:54.900 And, Steve, I think it has to be zero tolerance on illegal immigration.
00:09:58.440 And I also believe, and I might be an outlier on this, but I think that people are coming around to this way of thinking.
00:10:03.100 It's also time, even on legal immigration, it's time for a moratorium.
00:10:06.740 It is time for a pause.
00:10:08.240 We need a timeout on immigration to this country, even legal.
00:10:11.640 Before I let you go, by the way, 100% has got to be zero immigration on any front.
00:10:18.400 And let's talk about yesterday they announced 110 refugees from Ukraine.
00:10:24.160 Look, the Ukraine war is a tragedy.
00:10:26.680 But the countries – and this is my point about NATO not really being allies.
00:10:29.680 That 110,000 refugees should be in Hungary and Romania and Poland because the purpose is they're going to go back when the fighting stops.
00:10:41.140 You get here to the United States, they're going to permanently be here.
00:10:43.200 That's not the deal.
00:10:44.480 The deal, we shouldn't be taking any refugees from Ukraine.
00:10:47.600 None.
00:10:48.200 Zero.
00:10:48.660 The null set.
00:10:50.320 Because they're not going to go back.
00:10:52.260 This is like Afghanistan.
00:10:53.080 They should have gone into the regional countries.
00:10:55.300 And when things are sorted, they're going to go back to their home country and help rebuild their home country.
00:11:01.540 We've got enough folks here that can rebuild it.
00:11:03.960 Before I let you go and go to Burkwam, I just want everybody to understand a central piece of the Fed and the Biden regime's stated program to bring inflation down is to flood the zone with illegal alien labor.
00:11:22.720 Is it not, sir?
00:11:23.660 They keep saying – the biggest problem – because you know, Steve, the biggest problem here – and I just want to make sure every in the audience understands this – the single biggest problem we have in inflation, by far the biggest, is the wages that the people in East Palestine, Ohio, and in Yuma, Arizona, and in inner city Baltimore, and in Detroit, and in East St. Louis, and all over the country – it's the working class, the lower class.
00:11:47.380 The biggest problem we have is that the biggest problem we have is their wages are too high.
00:11:51.720 So in order to bring inflation down, our number one priority should be – and the statistic they pulled out, we've pulled out, is – Brad pulled it out.
00:11:59.880 It's – they've already announced in the last report one million illegal aliens have joined the workforce, and they're bragging about it because that's the number one priority.
00:12:10.220 Because you know, Steve, the number one – the problem we've got is East Palestine, Ohio, and the good citizens in the Rio Grande Valley and in Yuma, Arizona, the working class, their wages are too high, sir.
00:12:22.240 Right, no. Let's ask them, by the way, if they think that they're being paid too much, as middle class Americans completely struggle to survive right now.
00:12:31.800 That is the reality, you know, again, not my opinion, as reflected, as revealed by the numbers.
00:12:37.400 Car loans, subprime car loans at an all-time high, overall car loan delinquencies at the highest level since 2009.
00:12:44.740 Okay, that's the reality. That's what Americans are dealing with.
00:12:47.600 Inflation is not because they're making too much money. It's because Biden declared war on domestic American energy, and Biden and the Congress have been expending exorbitantly on an absolute orgy of borrowing and spending.
00:12:59.840 That is why inflation is out of control in this country, not because salt of the earth, working class Americans are making too much money.
00:13:09.080 Steve Cortez, how can people get to your content? How can they get to all of it?
00:13:12.700 Yeah, please follow me on the Twitter. I'm at Cortez, Steve Cortez, with an S. Appreciate it. Everybody have a fantastic weekend ahead.
00:13:22.380 Thank you, brother. Okay, we're going to get to a second. Ben Berquam, who's very tired and sleepy, is going to hang with us.
00:13:28.500 We're going to come back to him in the next break.
00:13:30.300 This is the tale of three cities. This is the central beating problem of our beloved republic right now.
00:13:37.860 You have an elite, you have an Atlanticist elite. I might say an Atlanticist white elite that is absolutely obsessed with Europe and all things in Europe.
00:13:50.440 And they're absolutely obsessed by not having the European elite pay anything for this.
00:13:55.320 You don't see folks in Davos, Switzerland, or in Austria, or in northern Italy, or in France, or all the great ski resorts of Europe, all the fancy places in the west end of London, right?
00:14:09.820 All the beautiful places in Paris, Belgium, you just name it, Germany.
00:14:14.120 Go to those great, see the wealthy there.
00:14:16.240 They're not pitching in anything for this. Zero.
00:14:19.660 You're underwriting NATO. Europe's a vassal state.
00:14:23.160 Okay, we don't make them pay.
00:14:24.660 And you got Joe Scarborough and these guys running around, rubbing up on them, right?
00:14:28.480 How lovely it is, how great allies, how we strengthened the alliance with your money.
00:14:33.540 While there's an invasion on the southern border that's in your face, and they tell you it's part of our plan.
00:14:38.040 And they give you the fair, the well, devil catch the hindmost in East Palestine, Ohio, and in western Pennsylvania.
00:14:48.560 Short commercial break.
00:14:50.460 The intrepid Ben Burquam will join us momentarily.
00:14:54.220 Fair warning. Listen to this convicted home title thief explaining what happens when he forges your home's title and takes over as the new owner.
00:15:08.640 Nobody thinks that I can take their house and borrow against the house.
00:15:11.820 Oh no, I have title insurance. It's in my name.
00:15:14.500 Or he would have to get some special document.
00:15:16.680 They would call me.
00:15:18.040 You know, nobody's calling you.
00:15:19.780 You're living in a delusion.
00:15:21.460 After I've stolen the title, borrowed against it, or sold the property,
00:15:24.740 it's 60 to 90 days for that person to even figure out that they're the victim of this crime.
00:15:29.260 You start getting foreclosure notices.
00:15:31.140 You've got four mortgages on your house.
00:15:32.880 You don't even own your home anymore.
00:15:34.080 It's not even in your name.
00:15:34.960 Home title fraud is growing two and a half times faster than credit card fraud.
00:15:39.700 You could be a victim and not even know it.

00:16:08.020 Here's your host, Stephen K.
00:16:10.300 Okay, we're going to have, in a little while, we're going to have the Oklahoma County GOP
00:16:18.320 is going to join us at the bottom of the hour.
00:16:19.620 We're going to talk about this big event we've got in Oklahoma City on Saturday night,
00:16:23.920 tomorrow night, 6 p.m. at the Cowboy Museum Hall of Fame.
00:16:28.120 We want everybody there.
00:16:29.180 You are not going to forget it.
00:16:31.180 We get to do a meet and greet, get to meet everybody and hang out,
00:16:35.020 and I get to give the Lincoln Reagan Day dinner speech.
00:16:43.580 Also, you know, hey, Ben Burkwam, let me get you, I'll make you part of the pitch.
00:16:49.040 Burkwam, tell people, before we get to everything that's going on in that incredible footage,
00:16:55.140 just your schedule.
00:16:56.260 You got up in the middle of the night.
00:16:57.620 You got to East Palestine, which is not easy.
00:17:00.160 That is not an easy location to get to.
00:17:02.600 You did the incredible on-the-scene reporting there.
00:17:06.220 Then you hurried back to the airport, left us with some great segments we could play,
00:17:11.680 went back to the airport, got on a plane.
00:17:13.920 You got into, what, Tucson at 3 in the morning, 2 in the morning?
00:17:16.940 All day at the Yuma coverage, which was incredible.
00:17:21.300 And then you go out.
00:17:22.460 What time did Gates took you out when?
00:17:24.260 And you were all night with Gates?
00:17:27.580 Yeah, we went out this morning at 3 a.m. again,
00:17:30.680 and then we're out to about 5 this morning.
00:17:33.840 And, by the way, we started, I want to say this, before we got to East Palestine,
00:17:37.740 we started in Asbury.
00:17:39.300 So I took my family.
00:17:40.300 We did a nine-hour drive to Asbury.
00:17:41.680 That's right, that's right.
00:17:42.660 It's been a pretty epic, epic, epic journey so far.
00:17:45.880 Hold it, I forgot to hang on.
00:17:46.940 And then back to East Palestine tonight.
00:17:50.640 Okay, hold it.
00:17:51.460 This is, this is, he goes to the revival.
00:17:54.920 He gets filled with the Holy Spirit.
00:17:56.660 Then he goes to East Palestine.
00:17:58.020 Incredible job.
00:17:59.060 Come back in the middle of the night.
00:18:01.080 Get in Tucson.
00:18:01.660 Tucson's not easy to get to.
00:18:02.920 Get to Tucson at 3 in the morning.
00:18:04.620 You do the entire Yuma thing.
00:18:07.460 Yesterday was incredible.
00:18:08.540 I mean, it's so important to take these things on the road.
00:18:10.800 Then you get, then Gates shanghaies you, and he's got you out at 3 in the morning to 5.
00:18:16.060 Now you're going to go back, now you're going to go back to East Palestine, which is fantastic.
00:18:20.400 Tell me about, by the way, so I'm going to make the plug right now.
00:18:24.580 You could not do this if you did not sleep on the products of MyPillow, correct?
00:18:28.540 A hundred percent.
00:18:30.780 Yeah, I can't, you know, and I, by the way, just so you know, you had to rub it in a little bit.
00:18:35.060 My 2.0 is in the mail.
00:18:36.640 I think it's actually at my house now, which I'm not at.
00:18:39.240 So I don't even get to sleep on it.
00:18:40.900 I just had them shipped.
00:18:42.860 Oh, man.
00:18:43.200 And so I cannot wait.
00:18:44.420 I haven't even tried the 2.0 yet.
00:18:46.260 But I do have, I travel everywhere.
00:18:48.160 Even when I was in the Darien Gap of Panama, I had my MyPillow travel pillow.
00:18:52.780 You can't go home without it.
00:18:55.780 Well, I got to tell you, the 2.0, go to MyPillow.com, promo code Wyrm right now, the 2.0.
00:19:01.780 We're going to make sure, by the way, Ben, if yours is not at home and you don't get to East Palestine,
00:19:06.140 we'll have somebody drive one down to, somehow we'll get one to.
00:19:08.900 You got to get the 2.0, 2.0.
00:19:10.560 Give me one at CPAC.
00:19:11.920 Give me one at CPAC.
00:19:14.540 I'll carry it around CPAC with me.
00:19:16.180 The problem is, I'm afraid you're going to get it and you'll be sleeping all the time.
00:19:20.820 I need you on point.
00:19:22.560 Ben, this is, before talking about Gates, before talking about Gates,
00:19:27.800 I want to give a synopsis of this incredibly powerful,
00:19:31.720 and I want to give a hat tip to Chairman Jordan for doing this
00:19:35.740 and Andy Biggs for coming up with the idea and the folks in Arizona.
00:19:39.000 We know we have a huge posse out there.
00:19:41.480 Not only are you not forgotten, you're the centerpiece of this.
00:19:44.520 That and the Rio Grande Valley are the centerpieces of this problem on the southern border.
00:19:49.480 Tell me about the testimony yesterday,
00:19:52.020 and then let's talk about what you found out with Matt Gates.
00:19:56.540 Well, as you said, it's stunning, and it just shows the abandoned.
00:20:01.820 We talk about the forgotten man.
00:20:03.480 I would call it the abandoned man, the abandoned American citizens,
00:20:06.880 just like in East Palestine, down here in Yuma, Arizona,
00:20:09.420 all along our southern border, all along the interior of America.
00:20:12.680 Any of the producers, if you, one of my favorite books of all time was Atlas Shrugged,
00:20:16.600 and you talk about the looters and the producers.
00:20:18.440 We are in that time right now where the looters are being amplified and glorified,
00:20:22.740 and the producers are being crushed under the boot of the left.
00:20:26.780 And that's what we're seeing.
00:20:28.260 So down here in Yuma, you talk about the impacts of illegal immigration's open borders.
00:20:32.880 They started off with the director of the health care system down here.
00:20:35.740 They are going bankrupt, covering illegal alien costs, and they can't not.
00:20:40.400 I mean, their job, he even said it.
00:20:41.700 He said, we will not turn anyone away.
00:20:43.440 That's our job to heal the sick and take care of the ill and dying and injured.
00:20:48.740 So the health care system is crumbling down here.
00:20:51.440 We talked to the board of supervisors, actually Jonathan Lyons.
00:20:54.000 He was out there with us this morning, early this morning.
00:20:56.320 He was the other one in that interview.
00:20:58.180 And the county is being bankrupted by this,
00:21:01.300 and the impacts to the county and the impacts to rural agriculture.
00:21:04.200 People don't realize all of the lettuce that you eat basically in America during the winter
00:21:10.220 comes from Yuma, Arizona, the vast majority of it.
00:21:13.900 Central Valley of California, which is also being crushed by the left,
00:21:17.120 and then here in Yuma, Arizona.
00:21:19.660 And then we had Sheriff Wilmot, one of my friends down here,
00:21:22.300 talking about the impact on their resources,
00:21:24.940 the amount of dead bodies that they're finding, the bodies out in the desert,
00:21:28.460 the impact of cartels in their community,
00:21:30.280 and that impact, everything that is happening here.
00:21:33.060 It's a microcosm of what's spreading, the cancer that's spreading across America.
00:21:38.140 It's absolutely shocking.
00:21:40.360 But I think the most shocking part, it's not surprising, but it's shocking,
00:21:43.760 is the fact that you had this judiciary hearing,
00:21:46.820 field hearing yesterday,
00:21:49.400 and not a single Democrat bothered to show up.
00:21:52.980 Nadler couldn't be bothered to come here.
00:21:55.120 Swalwell couldn't be bothered to come here.
00:21:56.780 None of these open borders, pathetic liberals could find the time to come down
00:22:02.820 to the working class people, to the community of Yuma, Arizona,
00:22:06.000 because they haven't forgotten about them.
00:22:07.920 They've abandoned them.
00:22:11.680 You're a veteran of doing a lot of this.
00:22:14.640 You actually went to the Venezuelan-Columbian border
00:22:16.920 and came all the way up through the Darien Gap.
00:22:18.700 You've been at the border so many times for us,
00:22:20.560 and then through the years before even War Room.
00:22:23.260 But I want to talk about Gates last night and some of the shocking realities that exist today
00:22:28.140 with the cartels and particularly people from all over the world coming.
00:22:31.420 And they're coming because they know they've got to come now
00:22:34.020 because they understand that Biden's opened the door for them.
00:22:37.000 And as soon as Biden's gone, it's over.
00:22:39.100 So walk me through your experience and, quite frankly,
00:22:42.420 the shocking video that you put up from your overnight mission with Congressman Matt Gates.
00:22:48.160 Well, first off, it's just an honor to be able to hang out with such a patriot.
00:22:54.620 Matt Gates is amazing.
00:22:55.700 And so we need more like him.
00:22:56.780 We need more that are going to put their foot down.
00:22:59.440 And when it comes to picking a leader in the House that are willing to stand up and say,
00:23:03.100 we're not budging unless we get what's best for the American people.
00:23:06.300 And he also comes down here and says, I want to actually see for myself.
00:23:09.100 He's obviously a Florida congressman.
00:23:11.080 And this border doesn't touch his state, but the impacts obviously do.
00:23:15.460 And so we went down and immediately, as soon as we arrived there,
00:23:20.440 past three o'clock in the morning, we had a group of about 100.
00:23:23.880 And you saw that we went down the line.
00:23:25.600 A couple of things to note, Peru is falling apart.
00:23:28.440 The majority of people that we saw last night were from Peru.
00:23:31.340 Another failed corrupt state.
00:23:34.160 And Kamala Harris, if you're watching this, Joe Biden, if you're watching this,
00:23:37.340 you want to talk about root causes.
00:23:38.720 It's very, very simple.
00:23:40.100 It's socialism, communism, corruption, and leftism.
00:23:43.540 You guys are the problem.
00:23:44.780 That's where we're seeing these people come.
00:23:46.400 We have a large contingent now coming from Brazil to get away from Lula.
00:23:50.340 And then you go down the line, people from Georgia, from Europe.
00:23:53.540 But then the big one that Matt is really concerned about are the Chinese.
00:23:57.240 And the big issue is it's the strategy of the CCP.
00:24:02.180 You have people escaping China, escaping communism, but you also, there's no question about it,
00:24:07.260 you have threats to America that have been introduced to these illegal immigrants
00:24:12.200 that are being pumped in by the CCP.
00:24:14.180 So it's, you know, it's death by a million cuts.
00:24:17.460 It's death by a million invaders.
00:24:19.060 It's the end of sovereignty of America if we don't stop it.
00:24:23.640 And you just saw that.
00:24:24.780 I mean, in talking to the supervisor and talking to Congressman Gates and talking to the people
00:24:29.620 there, it's just, it's so bad.
00:24:31.640 And this is at a time, Steve, where the Democrats said they've done something.
00:24:35.880 You know, this is after they said, oh, we're going to force the illegals to stay in Mexico.
00:24:40.640 We're going to grant them the parole on the Mexico side.
00:24:43.640 It's just a lie.
00:24:45.000 It's a, it's a absolute lie.
00:24:46.980 Mayorkas is a liar.
00:24:47.900 Joe Biden is a liar.
00:24:49.140 Kamala Harris is a liar.
00:24:50.520 These people are liars.
00:24:51.720 And they don't care because they never get called out for it.
00:24:54.500 It's, they need to be held accountable.
00:24:56.720 They need to be removed from office.
00:24:57.840 They need to be impeached.
00:24:58.880 And they need to be prosecuted for what they're doing to this country.
00:25:02.020 Tell, tell me.
00:25:03.540 And that's why, remember, it was the Judiciary Committee that's down there.
00:25:08.400 I think that's incredibly important.
00:25:09.920 Andy Biggs, Gates, and Jordan.
00:25:12.500 I wanted to talk about two things.
00:25:13.820 I've got a couple of minutes here before we go to break.
00:25:15.720 We want to hold you through the break.
00:25:17.040 But I want to talk about the morale of the front line, the brave men and women, the Border Patrol.
00:25:22.540 And then also the residents of Yuma.
00:25:25.600 Yuma is not a Republican city, right?
00:25:27.600 It's got, it's got a lot of Democrats down there.
00:25:29.520 But talk to me about Yuma and the local folks.
00:25:32.880 Where are their heads at on this right now?
00:25:34.500 And tell me about the morale of the, of the fierce warriors.
00:25:37.700 I don't, it's actually, Yuma is actually a fairly conservative city because it's got
00:25:43.140 such a large military contingent here.
00:25:45.280 And even the Hispanics here are heavily conservative.
00:25:48.600 They're, they're turning, they were Trump supporters.
00:25:51.340 Like we saw the waves across the border.
00:25:53.580 Yuma was one of those waves.
00:25:54.640 And so you have a very large conservative contingent.
00:25:57.380 Now, of course, you still have Democrats here.
00:25:59.120 But speaking first to the Border Patrol, they, it's, they're almost apoplectic is probably
00:26:06.640 the best word.
00:26:07.140 They just are kind of doing their job.
00:26:09.100 You can see the lights are out in the eyes.
00:26:10.860 I mean, they're just out there.
00:26:12.160 They're, they're performing the function and, and there's just, they're, they're desperate.
00:26:18.080 They're desperate.
00:26:18.720 But I think they realize there's no help coming to them.
00:26:21.360 I mean, it's not coming from Mayorkas.
00:26:23.020 It's not coming from Biden.
00:26:24.040 And so the guys that are on the lines, they go out every single day.
00:26:27.180 They strap their boots on every single day.
00:26:28.880 They go out to do their job to protect America.
00:26:31.160 And they're turned into Uber services for the cartels.
00:26:34.020 And you can tell it's, it's just, it's wearing on them.
00:26:36.700 And I, you know, that's why we see, sadly, we see the, the, the, the tragedy and suicide
00:26:41.680 with Border Patrol.
00:26:42.360 We see it a lot in military.
00:26:43.460 Now we're starting to see that.
00:26:44.560 So if you have Border Patrol friends or family, let them know that you love them, that you're
00:26:48.380 with them, that you stand with them, that the American people are with them, that we're
00:26:52.020 with them.
00:26:52.400 This shows with them that it's going to get better.
00:26:54.900 This, this is not going to, we're not going to let this lose.
00:26:57.300 And the same thing to the people of Yuma, we're with you.
00:27:00.360 Don't give up.
00:27:01.360 Keep fighting.
00:27:03.960 Tell me about this.
00:27:04.880 Go back.
00:27:05.560 We've got 30 seconds.
00:27:06.480 Tell me about the suicides with the Border Patrol.
00:27:08.200 What's the issue?
00:27:10.720 Yeah, we're seeing a dramatic rise in suicides over the last several months.
00:27:14.360 And if you watch Art Del Cueto, he's, he's been posting all of them as they've been happening.
00:27:19.020 And, uh, and it's, it's all the frontline guys.
00:27:21.720 It's all the guys down in, in, uh, south of Tucson.
00:27:24.640 It's guys down in the Rio Grande Valley.
00:27:27.060 Um, and it's, you know, it's an absolute, it's, it's an American tragedy.
00:27:31.120 It's a tragedy of, of, of patriotism, of, of justice in America.
00:27:34.980 These guys that swore an oath, many of them military veterans and are, and they're, and
00:27:38.860 they're dying because they can't do their job.
00:27:41.060 Ben, just hang on for one second.
00:27:44.760 We'll take a short commercial break.
00:27:46.060 We've got, uh, Ben Harnwell.
00:27:47.660 It's the first, uh, anniversary of the war in Ukraine, the beginning of the third world
00:27:51.360 war.
00:27:51.940 We've got the invasion of the Southern border with Ben Berkwam, Harnwell in Rome, Berkwam
00:27:56.840 on the Southern border.
00:27:59.040 We're going global Oklahoma city.
00:28:01.020 We're also going to talk to you about hope and a conference about hope on next to the

00:29:06.660 Here's your host, Stephen K.
00:29:08.820 Back.
00:29:15.380 OK, I want to go to Ben.
00:29:16.720 Ben, we've had the situation with the individuals charged with first degree murder and people
00:29:21.340 are questioning.
00:29:21.780 Now, people went to the alternative site and enough money was raised to work through his
00:29:28.260 bail issue.
00:29:29.440 But people are shocked.
00:29:31.820 Given you got Sheriff Lamb and other sheriffs who bring on here.
00:29:35.080 How did a sheriff down there charge this guy in worth the prosecutor charging with first
00:29:40.980 degree premeditated murder?
00:29:42.580 Well, let me explain who the sheriff is.
00:29:47.140 Sheriff Hathaway of Sierra Vista, Arizona.
00:29:49.640 He's one of two sheriffs that actually endorsed Katie Hobbs.
00:29:54.080 He and the sheriff of Tucson, Arizona.
00:29:56.200 And that should tell you a lot.
00:29:57.260 I actually interviewed him a few months ago and it was one of the saddest interviews I've
00:30:01.620 ever had.
00:30:01.980 I was standing in Nogales with him and he said they don't have a drug problem.
00:30:05.560 They don't have a cartel problem.
00:30:06.680 They don't have an illegal immigration problem.
00:30:08.680 That's all hype made up by fear mongers.
00:30:11.180 And as we were doing the interview, a drug trade happened behind us through the fence.
00:30:16.000 This guy, it's a shame that he, that Nogales, that Arizona has him as their sheriff.
00:30:21.280 He is the one, the sheriff that decided to go after this citizen down there, this elderly
00:30:28.380 citizen down here is simply trying to protect his property and protect his life.
00:30:32.700 I mean, these people are at war.
00:30:34.340 If you don't live on the border, I mean, I hear this every single day and I'm down here
00:30:38.100 all the time, but the people that live on the border, this is a war zone, Steve.
00:30:41.860 You've got cartels and especially down in that area, the Sinaloa cartel have heavily armed
00:30:46.820 bunkers.
00:30:47.380 We just took several of their bunkers out.
00:30:48.940 The Mexican military did on the Mexican side of the, I actually filmed those with the drone
00:30:53.000 a few months ago.
00:30:54.220 So they are, they're militarized and they're, they're terrorizing these communities and for
00:30:59.920 them to go after this guy, uh, as, as, uh, as, uh, it's just, it's just disgusting.
00:31:06.380 Uh, I don't know anything about the DA.
00:31:08.380 All I know is this is, was bound to happen and it's going to happen more often.
00:31:12.380 And rather than protecting the citizens, these people are protecting the cartel.
00:31:18.460 Yep.
00:31:18.920 We're going to get all over this.
00:31:20.060 Okay, Ben, uh, what's all the social media we can get to?
00:31:23.220 I know you're heading back to East Palestine for more reporting.
00:31:26.720 Uh, give us your coordinates.
00:31:30.380 America's voice dot news guys, share it everywhere.
00:31:33.420 Tag everyone.
00:31:34.580 This is the place to get it.
00:31:35.780 You're not getting this content anywhere else.
00:31:37.860 Frontlineamerica.com is my independent page.
00:31:40.200 Uh, Kerry Donovan does some incredible articles on the reports we're doing and then social media
00:31:44.680 at Ben Berquam, except on Twitter because they banned me on Twitter.
00:31:48.280 Uh, so at Ben Berquam on Getter, on Truth, on Cloud Hub, and then Frontline America, you
00:31:53.240 can find me just about everywhere.
00:31:54.580 Last name, B-E-R-G-Q-U-A-M.
00:31:57.380 It's an honor to be a part of the posse, Steve.
00:32:00.700 Well, and I now know why you get all the, you know, now know why you got all the good
00:32:04.380 work done.
00:32:05.000 John Fredericks has got Bowserman and you've got, uh, Kerry Donovan, who's just fantastic,
00:32:09.920 a great warrior and incredibly smart and hardworking.
00:32:12.400 You guys keep it up.
00:32:14.020 You're doing terrific.
00:32:14.980 Okay, brother.
00:32:15.480 See you back in East Palestine.
00:32:18.000 Ben Berquam.
00:32:18.860 Okay.
00:32:19.200 Uh, Patrick Coffin.
00:32:20.280 Patrick, come on.
00:32:20.880 You've got a, a, a conference I want everybody to know about, uh, that's coming up about
00:32:25.460 hope.
00:32:25.780 I think people need someone hope and the speakers have are amazing, but I want to start this
00:32:30.640 off by talking about, we had you on, it was a year and a half ago.
00:32:33.600 I think it seems like that when we had you on for your first conference.
00:32:38.340 And I remember we promoted the conference and correct me if I'm wrong, didn't, when you
00:32:42.500 first went up, it was a global conference online.
00:32:45.020 You had all these big speakers.
00:32:46.360 I think it was out of the Vatican.
00:32:47.900 Didn't they shut you down and like the, they try to shut you down like the first five minutes
00:32:51.540 and try to do a DDoS attack.
00:32:53.940 Do I, my, is my memory correct on this, sir?
00:32:57.320 Yeah, it is.
00:32:57.980 It's almost two years since the truth over fear summit, which, uh, got together 40 top
00:33:03.900 speakers and in the middle of, um, Senator Scott Jensen's talk at the very opening 52,000
00:33:11.320 people, all of a sudden saw, um, blank screens.
00:33:14.980 The company that, uh, carried us, took us offline.
00:33:19.100 Uh, obviously they were, they were pressured.
00:33:21.260 Um, I also received a permanent ban from our good friends at, at YouTube and we fought back
00:33:26.760 and work a day, day, day after night, after day, after night to put the whole thing on again,
00:33:31.640 seven days later, luckily all the speakers could do it.
00:33:34.440 And that meant that we were the, um, official or the unofficial, uh, competitor to this,
00:33:40.080 uh, ridiculous, uh, cabal run pro Pfizer, pro Moderna featuring Hillary Clinton's, um,
00:33:45.800 speaking at the Vatican, some kind of health conference.
00:33:48.860 So that was a, that was a providential thing.
00:33:51.580 That was 52,000.
00:33:52.740 No, no, this was, this was, this, this, this, this was a huge, this was a huge, you did truth
00:33:57.220 over fear.
00:33:57.740 You had some great speakers.
00:33:58.760 We had you on a bunch to get people, you know, cause we'd love giving the audience
00:34:02.680 alternatives to do.
00:34:03.700 And then I remember the thing launched, they go, Hey Steve, it got taken down in the first
00:34:08.160 speaker.
00:34:08.820 And I go, what are you talking about?
00:34:09.940 And then they said, Oh, the company got pressure from big pharma and from all the guys
00:34:13.940 on the left to take it down.
00:34:15.420 Of course, if you watch that today in the tapes, everything that was said there was a hundred
00:34:19.480 percent accurate, right?
00:34:20.560 This is the thing with what they're doing.
00:34:22.200 Talk to me.
00:34:22.780 I'd love this.
00:34:23.520 I'd love this hope is fuel.
00:34:26.640 And I particularly love that you've got some incredible speakers, not only our own Royce
00:34:30.620 White, but you've got what Archbishop Strickland.
00:34:33.400 You just got to tell us why is hope is fear.
00:34:36.940 What hope is fuel.
00:34:38.860 Why is hope fuel?
00:34:40.260 Walk us through the whole concept of this.
00:34:41.660 If you consume media, as most of your audience do, Steve, you're going to be subject to 24
00:34:48.760 seven fear point, whether it's World War three fears or a stock market crash, or you've got
00:34:54.000 the upside down president in Washington, the upside down hope in Rome, everything's topsy
00:34:58.700 turvy.
00:34:59.280 And the idea of hopelessness or fear or despair on you, we depression, anxiety, call it whatever
00:35:05.040 you want.
00:35:05.760 It's universal.
00:35:06.940 Liberals feel it.
00:35:07.740 Progressives, traditionalists, conservatives, patriots, people who couldn't care less.
00:35:11.200 We all, uh, there's a sense that there's a Paul over the world.
00:35:16.060 And the way I used to put it a couple of years ago was it feels like we're galloping
00:35:20.240 toward the abyss.
00:35:20.960 Now it feels like the abyss is galloping toward us.
00:35:23.420 So, uh, myself and my business partner, Ryan Moreau wanted to kind of punch back in the
00:35:27.840 opposite direction and provide hope from several different angles from the point of view of
00:35:32.520 mental health without throwing dangerous drugs at your brain.
00:35:35.520 Uh, what, what are you putting in your mouth?
00:35:37.320 What are you eating?
00:35:38.100 What's, how are you taking care of yourself?
00:35:40.180 Um, you just had a great report on, on the challenges that law enforcement face.
00:35:46.200 That's all part of this hope is fuel mix.
00:35:48.340 So hope is fuel.com is the, is the URL.
00:35:51.220 It's going to happen on March, uh, 18th.
00:35:53.780 So it's coming up.
00:35:55.300 Uh, we have a specialist from Canada, very brave, uh, psychologist named Dr. Ann Gillies
00:36:00.660 on thriving after childhood trauma.
00:36:02.880 You mentioned Royce white and his, uh, diagnosis with generalized anxiety disorder.
00:36:06.980 We have, uh, the great Bishop Joseph Strickland of Tyler, Texas going to talk about the hope
00:36:11.360 from an eternal, uh, perspective, uh, Dr. Peter Bragan.
00:36:14.800 You may have had Dr. Bragan on your show, the conscience of psychiatry on depression as
00:36:18.960 loss of hope.
00:36:20.240 Uh, Dr.
00:36:21.020 Mark McDonald, child psychologist from a psychiatrist, rather from LA, uh, Dr.
00:36:25.240 Leland Stillman, this dynamic young physician from, uh, from Florida.
00:36:29.560 These are all ideal war room guests, by the way, Steve, um, I'd love to connect you with
00:36:33.940 all of them.
00:36:34.420 Yeah.
00:36:34.980 Um, uh, Adam Lane Smith on, I want to have them in the role.
00:36:39.340 Yeah, no, we want to have more.
00:36:40.640 We've had Dr.
00:36:41.220 Bragan and obviously Royce, Dr.
00:36:42.840 Bragan on many times, uh, and, uh, and Royce on, but we want to have, we want to start
00:36:46.820 rolling this out because I want everybody, everybody to get access to this.
00:36:50.060 How do, where do they go now?
00:36:51.460 How they find out more information and more, you know, find out when it's going to be and
00:36:56.060 what can they do?
00:36:57.580 Super simple.
00:36:58.540 Hope is fuel.com.
00:37:00.280 There's an early bid pricing.
00:37:02.120 We're keeping the whole thing.
00:37:03.120 If you want to, uh, have access to the live Q and A's and, uh, merch discounts and personal
00:37:08.560 training and tutorials, um, you can do that.
00:37:12.000 If you want to just watch the talks for free and pay nothing and just enjoy the presentations,
00:37:15.440 it's all at hope is fuel.com.
00:37:18.640 So everyone's welcome to watch.
00:37:20.700 If you want to go deeper and get premium content, there's a, there's a ticket price, which is
00:37:24.100 I think 97, um, earlier if you catch the early bird.
00:37:27.340 So we think it's, uh, extremely inexpensive for the value of even one of these speakers.
00:37:33.060 Um, they might say one thing that'll change your life forever.
00:37:35.720 And a lot of people, Steve, as you know, they're on the edge, they're white knuckling
00:37:38.720 it, trying to get to the next paycheck.
00:37:40.340 They're trying to get to the next chapter in their life.
00:37:42.840 And they feel like there's, there's this overwhelming tsunami of bad news.
00:37:46.640 We want to be the antidote to the bad news by providing some good news.
00:37:51.200 And we know you put on great stuff because they took you down the last time that was,
00:37:54.660 and by the way, I've watched a lot of that was a fantastic conference.
00:37:57.680 Hope is fuel.
00:37:59.460 Grace and Captain Bannon will put it up there.
00:38:01.500 We're going to have these guests on the, the speakers.
00:38:03.580 We're going to try to roll those out between now and the 18th.
00:38:06.320 Patrick, thank you for putting this on.
00:38:08.020 Thank you for the bravery of not, not letting them shut you down.
00:38:10.620 Not Patrick coffin is uncancelable.
00:38:13.680 Thank you, brother.
00:38:14.840 Appreciate it.
00:38:15.500 Thank you, Steve.
00:38:16.040 Hope is fuel.
00:38:18.620 Now more than ever.
00:38:20.480 Let me go.
00:38:21.180 I got Ben Harnwell, but I want to, Kathy Connor.
00:38:23.560 Kathy, can you tell everybody, I want to make sure everybody gets a shot.
00:38:26.360 It's still the day before in the general Oklahoma city area about our event tomorrow night,
00:38:32.880 6 p.m.
00:38:33.360 Can you give people the details?
00:38:36.220 Yes, Steve.
00:38:37.140 It's great to be here.
00:38:38.380 Thank you so much for what you're doing for Oklahoma this year.
00:38:41.600 By announcing you as our keynote speaker at the Lincoln Reagan dinner Saturday night,
00:38:47.160 we've really stirred up the establishment here.
00:38:51.280 Oklahomans need to hear this grassroots message.
00:38:54.840 Maybe we should start a war room Oklahoma.
00:38:58.020 I'm going to be Natalie here.
00:38:59.620 All right.
00:39:00.240 All right.
00:39:01.240 I'm in.
00:39:01.980 I'm in.
00:39:02.740 I'm in.
00:39:03.260 I love it.
00:39:08.120 I love it.
00:39:08.660 There are so many conservative Republicans, though, that haven't caught up.
00:39:13.520 They don't know.
00:39:14.500 You know, they don't have news that tells them the truth.
00:39:18.860 So the Oklahoma County GOP is trying to make a difference.
00:39:22.920 We're standing up.
00:39:24.260 We're establishing goals, building precincts, vetting and training candidates.
00:39:28.560 And we're just trying to change the landscape from the agenda of the progressive, because
00:39:34.440 we've got it here, too.
00:39:36.960 Steve Cortez is so right.
00:39:38.940 Things are changing right in front of us.
00:39:41.740 And most people just aren't awake to what's happening.
00:39:46.040 So come on, Oklahoma.
00:39:47.140 That's what we have to do.
00:39:47.960 Saturday night, February 25th, 6 o'clock.
00:39:50.420 And if you're in the general area or not, come on in.
00:39:57.120 We'll make it well worth it.
00:39:58.380 The talk will be worth it.
00:39:59.340 The location is superb.
00:40:01.160 Kathy, I can't thank you guys enough for putting this on and for inviting me.
00:40:04.780 Very humbled to speak anytime at one of these Lincoln Day or Reagan Day dinners.
00:40:09.260 I really appreciate it, ma'am.
00:40:10.840 Well, and I'd like to say also, to remind everybody, it is at the National Cowboy and Western Museum.
00:40:16.900 And we are having a golden ticket raffle.
00:40:20.680 So we've got three exotic experiences that Oklahomans have given.
00:40:24.840 And one is the Cedar Gate.
00:40:26.480 You know, it's a sportsman's resort with skeet shooting and four-wheeling and kayaking.
00:40:31.580 It's beautiful.
00:40:33.160 So, you know, come on out.
00:40:35.540 We really would love to see you.
00:40:39.580 Kathy Connor, thank you very much.
00:40:41.160 We're going to put it up on all of our chat rooms.
00:40:42.900 Make sure we push it up on the website today.
00:40:44.620 So thank you very much.
00:40:45.360 Look forward to seeing you guys tomorrow.
00:40:46.900 Oklahoma City.
00:40:48.180 Okay.
00:40:48.700 Can't wait.
00:40:49.420 Bye-bye.
00:40:51.400 Thank you, ma'am.
00:40:52.780 The grassroots everywhere.
00:40:54.740 Taking over parties, building precincts, getting precinct committeemen.
00:40:58.500 This is going to save us.
00:41:00.240 And, Harnwell, we need saving right now.
00:41:01.680 Harnwell, I need you on to tell me about the first year, this anniversary of this brutal war in Ukraine.
00:41:09.860 Give us your assessment.
00:41:10.840 Because I told you that you've been saying the sociopathic overlords, and I actually stole your saying to put it up on one of my Getter News thing.
00:41:18.500 They've already talked about the biggest reconstruction since World War II.
00:41:21.480 It's unbelievable.
00:41:22.960 Give us your thoughts and analysis, sir.
00:41:26.020 Well, one sociopathic overlord today, which is Ben Wallace, who's the UK defence minister, somewhat honestly told the British public that war is coming to Britain.
00:41:37.360 Now, at least that means Britons can, if they're going to be informed on the truth, they can make appropriate choices at the ballot box.
00:41:48.940 But there's a debate that seems to be starting to take place in the UK.
00:41:53.620 There's no sign of that from the governing party, the governing administration in the United States, however, which is just a mixture of happy talk and gaslighting.
00:42:03.440 So, in common with all other media, Steve, today is the first year anniversary of this tragedy, entirely avoidable tragedy, that is the war in Ukraine.
00:42:14.720 And whilst other media outlets are pulling up photos of specific bombings of hospitals or what have you, as their key moment of the past 12 months, I have chosen a different story, and I'm going to come to it right after the break.
00:42:37.560 Hang on one second. We're going to take a short break. We've got Ben Harnwell in Rome.
00:42:44.320 We are packed, and we've got a 5 to 7 show that's packed. Tomorrow is going to be amazing.
00:42:51.440 You're not going to want to miss that as we go through the entire world situation right now, the economics of it, the war of it, all of it.
00:42:58.020 Okay, short break. Ben Harnwell, back in a moment.

00:44:55.160 Download now.
00:44:56.120 Okay, we started with the celebratory nature of Morning Joe, MSNBC, and all this, right?
00:45:04.440 The buddy movie that is Zelensky and Biden.
00:45:07.400 Although the engine room tells me it's not a buddy movie.
00:45:11.340 It's a rom-com.
00:45:12.980 A rom-com.
00:45:16.160 Ben Harnwell, we're going to end with you.
00:45:19.000 Your assessment of where we stand on this first anniversary of the beginning of the kinetic part of the Third World War, sir.
00:45:27.100 Well, Steve, this is an absolute tragedy.
00:45:29.640 I'm going to get the guys in Denver to pull this up in just a moment.
00:45:34.480 But my story of the year is really a story here of a politician, right?
00:45:44.280 We're not going to go into the carnage of the thousands of families and children blown to smithereens by this war that never needed to take place.
00:45:54.520 Like rats leaving a sinking ship, this is a story that goes back to March the 21st of last year, which is basically less than a month after the war started.
00:46:05.280 And a politician's wife was caught on the Ukrainian-Hungarian border, smuggling out of the country the equivalent of $29 million in suitcases full of cash.
00:46:22.440 The politician in question was called Igor Klotvititsky, who was a friend, is a friend of Zelensky's first interior minister, Arsene Avakov.
00:46:40.640 And he's an oligarch, a nuclear energy systems guy.
00:46:46.660 So that's how he made his money.
00:46:48.060 Also a member of parliament.
00:46:49.380 And that, for me, Steve, is the lingering memory of this war.
00:46:55.140 Whilst American taxpayers and Italian taxpayers and German taxpayers and British taxpayers are funneling money in.
00:47:04.100 And I saw that NTG called for an audit, just a full audit on all the money that the U.S. has given over to Ukraine an hour or so ago.
00:47:13.320 All this money has been going over to Ukraine with very little accountability.
00:47:19.160 The oligarchs were taking money out.
00:47:23.680 So no real – I was following this story.
00:47:27.340 They said that the charges were going to be pressed.
00:47:29.440 And we only know this because the Hungarian – I mean, presumably the Ukrainian border officials were bribed.
00:47:36.080 The Hungarian border officials were the folks who brought this to attention.
00:47:41.000 The international press, for a very short period – in fact, it was memory-holed so quickly.
00:47:47.320 As I was watching it, I got whiplash just watching it go down the memory hole.
00:47:52.760 The press had indicated that criminal charges were going to be filed.
00:47:56.920 I did a full investigation before coming on the show today.
00:48:00.380 Zero reference to this case one year on.
00:48:03.480 And the only reason we know about it is because the Hungarian border controls brought it to attention.
00:48:10.580 So how many – there you can see that the suitcase is full of cash that were confiscated by the Hungarian border guards.
00:48:18.520 And of course, this guy, this politician put out a press release saying that it's all made up and it didn't happen.
00:48:26.360 I don't think he was aware that the Hungarians were taking photos of the suitcases.
00:48:31.000 And that, I think, is the split screen that I'm going to take away from the contribution made to global peace and security being made by our sociopathic overlords.
00:48:45.540 If I have – if I have – look, when I chose this story, Steve, you know what I was laughing at?
00:48:53.000 You set my getter feed on fire a couple of weeks ago when you referred to my beady-eyed cynicism.
00:49:01.000 And I thought, well, I don't want to prove you right in your evaluation of it.
00:49:07.800 But I could not pick this article.
00:49:10.240 I could not pick a better representation of the tragedy of this war than these oligarchs like rats leaving a sinking ship.
00:49:19.520 It's sick.
00:49:20.760 It is sick.
00:49:21.400 It is sick.
00:49:22.300 And we're fighting to the last Ukrainian.
00:49:25.520 That's the tragedy here.
00:49:26.840 This is why Milley – do we have – do we play Milley one more time before we go?
00:49:30.700 Just tell me when it's ready.
00:49:32.260 Milley tells you it's going to get to a negotiated settlement.
00:49:35.000 You're going to end up killing tens of thousands more Ukrainians now.
00:49:38.040 Let's just play General Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, real quick.
00:49:41.000 Let's go ahead and hit it.
00:49:41.660 If we're lucky, touch wood.
00:49:44.380 The diplomats will enter the fray here and they'll get to a negotiating table at some point.
00:49:49.500 I think at the end of the day, President Biden, President Zelensky, every European leader has said the same thing,
00:49:56.340 which is this war will end at a negotiating table, and that's probably right.
00:50:01.620 Zelensky says that – Zelensky's accusing – Kamala Harris is with Zelensky saying that they're guilty of war crimes.
00:50:08.740 We have definitive proof.
00:50:10.020 We formally determined that there were crimes.
00:50:12.740 How do you negotiate a negotiating table with – we didn't negotiate with the Imperial Japanese staff.
00:50:18.040 We didn't negotiate with the Nazis.
00:50:21.100 No.
00:50:21.780 It was unconditional surrender.
00:50:23.100 We destroyed them.
00:50:24.760 This is – there's so much spin and misrepresentation.
00:50:27.720 This is why we need Biden to come with a war powers resolution.
00:50:31.480 We've got to – even the rhino Republicans have got to force that.
00:50:34.940 I know you want – I know you're all shills for the defense industry.
00:50:37.220 Ben, magnificent.
00:50:39.260 The one I would like – we'll talk about it maybe on Monday.
00:50:42.740 The Financial Times story that showed that all the – half the weapons we were sending over there,
00:50:46.700 the small arms, were being funneled back to the gangs of Europe, and it was going to be a big problem.
00:50:51.340 Also, the 5,000 shells a day.
00:50:53.060 No way they're shooting 5,000 shells.
00:50:54.940 They're skimming that off the top too.
00:50:57.020 Harnwell, how did – with your beady-eyed cynicism, how do we get to your war room roam,
00:51:04.500 and how did we get to all your content, brother?
00:51:07.340 Steve, I wear that description like a badge of honor.
00:51:12.040 So if folks want to check out my beady-eyed cynicism 24-7, they can go to my getter feed,
00:51:19.580 which is simply my surname, at Harnwell.
00:51:21.700 So do keep an eye out for that today because I'm going to be updating it when there's news from the UN Security Council
00:51:28.100 on the vote that Russia asked for an independent investigation into the Biden regime's covert sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines.
00:51:39.300 I've been bringing the result out to that on my getter feed.
00:51:43.080 This is Seymour Hersh.
00:51:44.560 We don't know if that's correct yet, but we'll follow it.
00:51:46.540 By the way, the reason I'm laughing is that I never met a more idealistic –
00:51:53.460 I don't want to say naive, but just non-worldly soul than Ben Harnwell,
00:51:58.140 one of many of them in Rome many years ago.
00:51:59.560 We've turned him into a cynic.
00:52:02.220 Okay.
00:52:03.160 A BDI cynic.
00:52:03.980 In the Real America's BDI cynic, Charlie Kirk follows us, the Charlie Kirk Show.
