The Pandemic Era Public Health Order will end at midnight. Starting at midnight, people who arrive at our southern border will be subject to our immigration enforcement authorities under Title 8 of the U.S. Code. That means they will be presumed ineligible for asylum and subject to steeper consequences for unlawful entry, including a five year ban on reentry and potential criminal prosecution.
00:00:27.000I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:00:32.000Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:00:36.000If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:00:43.000War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Banff.
00:00:57.000Tonight at 11.59 p.m. Eastern Time, the Pandemic Era Title 42 Public Health Order will end.
00:01:16.000Starting at midnight, people who arrive at our southern border will be subject to our immigration enforcement authorities under Title 8 of the United States Code.
00:01:38.000If anyone arrives at our southern border after midnight tonight, they will be presumed ineligible for asylum and subject to steeper consequences for unlawful entry, including a minimum five year ban on reentry and potential criminal prosecution.
00:01:55.000We have done all we can with the resources that we have and within the system that we are operating under.
00:02:02.000What should Americans in those border communities and beyond expect in the coming days and weeks?
00:02:09.000What's this going to look like for them?
00:02:11.000We could see very crowded as we are now. We could see very crowded border patrol facilities.
00:02:17.000I cannot overstate the strain on our personnel and our facilities.
00:02:22.000But we know how to manage through such strain as difficult as it will be.
00:02:28.000I have tremendous confidence and pride in our personnel.
00:10:34.000And if we can get this, if this legislation were to become law, it would change a significant portion of the trajectory.
00:10:44.000But as long as Mayorkas is doing things like setting up reception centers in the Western Hemisphere so people can basically pre-register to illegally enter the United States of America.
00:10:55.000They're going to pre-register to illegal between the ports of entry.
00:10:58.000As long as you have Secretary Mayorkas saying that he's got this parole plan in place where you're actually providing incentives to come through, then I think that help is a long way out.
00:11:11.000And when I talk to the agents, their morale is down.
00:11:15.000And it's because their leadership has failed them utterly and completely.
00:11:20.000And I just beg my colleagues in Congress to join me in impeaching Mayorkas.
00:11:25.000He needs to be impeached because we have to hold him accountable.
00:11:29.000And I don't know what the next leader would look like.
00:11:32.000But then if we needed to impeach that person, we'd impeach him.
00:11:34.000The point is, somebody must be held accountable.
00:11:37.000And Mayorkas is the guy who's orchestrating this and leading this.
00:12:44.000Um, do you believe that the state government, we're going to have Carrie Lake here at the bottom of the hour.
00:12:51.000Do you believe, and we had the AG of, uh, Paxton on from Texas.
00:12:55.000Do you believe the state governments have done, have gone to the limit of what they can do and maybe even push the limit to try to stop the invasion of their states?
00:13:05.000Obviously the federal government is pushing this to exacerbate.
00:13:08.000Do you think the state governments have done enough?
00:13:10.000Um, I would say that, that, that Ducey tried to do some, but certainly Abbott in Texas has done more than, than anyone.
00:13:19.000And let me just tell you, you can actually see video, uh, in Matamoros where, um, so, so just, so everybody understands this.
00:13:29.000The Mexican immigration authorities are coordinating with CBP, um, in a, in a kind of a controlled flow environment.
00:13:37.000Now, maybe just because there's so many, they're overwhelmed.
00:13:39.000They're just trying to say, don't come yet.
00:13:43.000Cause we can't, we can't process you even, but, but you'll see that.
00:13:46.000But some of the, uh, aliens that are crossing in the river, a real, the Rio Grande, uh, there, they're surprised because you have, uh, Texas DPS actually turning them back and saying, you cannot enter here.
00:14:39.000Congressman Biggs, if we actually stay through the break, I just got one question on the debt ceiling that people want to know, want to hear from you a quick commercial break, just be a minute or two.
00:14:49.000Congressman Andy Biggs for a question or two on the other side, Seb Gorka, Carrie Lake.
00:14:54.000We're packed today, five and six in the war room.
00:14:59.000President Trump recently issued a warning from his home at Mar-a-Lago.
00:17:56.000They talked a whole lot different than they do right now.
00:17:58.000I say to the Republicans out there, congressmen, senators, if they don't give you massive cuts, you're going to have to do a default.
00:18:05.000And I don't believe they're going to do a default because I think the Democrats will absolutely cave because you don't want to have that happen.
00:18:14.000But it's better than what we're doing right now because we're spending money like drunken sailors.
00:18:19.000So just to be clear, Mr. President, you think the U.S. should default if the White House does not agree to the spending cuts Republicans are demanding?
00:18:26.000Well, you might as well do it now because you'll do it later.
00:19:13.000And is Donald Trump signaled that he's got the back of the of the of the hardcore people like yourself that really want to have cuts to the federal budget?
00:19:22.000Understand you can't continue what's going on, sir.
00:19:25.000Look, President Trump is right, Steve.
00:19:31.000I my mind is blown that people think that if you increase the debt ceiling by only one and a half trillion dollars over 10 months, that's somehow better than increasing it over by two and a half trillion dollars over 15 months.
00:19:44.000The reality is incrementalism does not work.
00:19:48.000They've tried it literally for decades to incrementally stop deficit spending.
00:19:53.000And it's the deficit spending that causes the national debt to blow up.
00:20:00.000And if you get it back to the twenty nineteen levels, which was President Trump and with the current revenue levels, you don't have to raise the debt ceiling.
00:20:08.000And you can take care and you can get rid of things like participation in World Health Organization.
00:20:12.000How about drag queen sponsorship in Ecuador and other places by the U.S.?
00:20:16.000I mean, there's so many things that we could cut out.
00:20:19.000And that's why we did the bills that we did.
00:21:08.000And so you're not going to have a default, Steve.
00:21:11.000And in my opinion, if you don't take care of it now, why does anybody think you're going to take care of it in 10 months when it's a $35 trillion deficit?
00:21:20.000National debt, excuse me, $35 trillion on that.
00:23:00.000Congress has been shown the middle finger by the most powerful law enforcement agency in the world.
00:23:06.000The second thing is this morning I was just watching the footage of the Rio Grande of the tens of thousands of people camped out ready to cross the border at midnight.
00:23:16.000And it's hard just not to be absolutely apoplectic, to be so enraged, because the people who are doing this are doing it knowingly.
00:23:28.000This isn't, you know, some zombie movie where we've built the barricades and they're just climbing over the barricades and we can't stop them.
00:23:37.000This is the literal demolition of our national sovereignty.
00:23:41.000Ask any professional in the national security sphere.
00:23:46.000There is not one nation on this world, Steve, that doesn't protect its sovereignty and doesn't have borders except ours.
00:23:56.000And the cynicism, the cold, merciless, murderous cynicism, that not only are you prepared to see tens of thousands, millions of people trafficked, this is modern slavery, women and children abused, raped, but also you're prepared to see 110,000 Americans die from fentanyl and other drug poisoning in just the 12 months.
00:24:20.360How many people is it going to be, Steve, by the end of the Biden administration since World War II, only 103,000 war fighters in U.S. uniform have died in combat from Korea to Vietnam to the GWAT, only 103,000.
00:24:35.960I mean, what I mean, only, I mean, God bless every single one of them.
00:24:40.120More people died last year because of drug overdoses in America, thanks to open borders.
00:24:45.700So if you're not angry, you better check your pulse.
00:24:53.740And what I mean by that, if you look at it, because this is the administrative state with the Biden radicals, but the administrative state has, well, this is well thought through.
00:25:02.060This is a well thought through invasion.
00:25:03.780When you look at the Biden situation, yesterday, not one just mainstream media that didn't cover it, but as I had Congressman Mason here this morning, it's bifurcated.
00:25:12.260One is about the Bidens and about their treason to the country for money.
00:25:16.820But the other is that all these documents from Treasury, all from 2015 and 2016, the Treasury Department monitors us very closely.
00:27:37.360That happens when you detest your own nation.
00:27:40.460It is the first time in history that a power as great as America's is being run by those who detest the nation of which they are the elite.
00:27:51.460By the way, Seb, if I can just hold you for a minute or two on the other side.
00:27:57.380I know you're busy, but I want to talk to you about the FBI thing.
00:28:00.500We're going to take a short commercial break.
00:28:02.040As we said yesterday in that historic hearing, remember, C-SPAN didn't take it live.
00:31:24.600If day one, January, well, let's make it the afternoon of January the 20th, if the Hobbits, if the Patriots do their part,
00:31:33.560and President Trump is back in the White House, on the afternoon of the 20th, you and me go down to the FBI, to the Hoover Building.
00:31:42.940And we say, right now, into this classified document pouch, you are providing me all the documentation of the corruption of the Biden family, Hillary, the emails, Uranium One, everything.
00:31:59.680Right now, unless you do that, you are all fired.
00:32:03.340Got it, but you're telling me, I've got to bounce, and I appreciate you staying through, but you're telling me, hang on, you're telling me,
00:32:11.740there's nothing we can do today, tomorrow, the next day, that you see the types of pressure we need, because these guys, they're going to hunker down.
00:32:20.040So we don't get the whistleblower for a year and a half?
00:41:39.020This is a country that has put Hungary first.
00:41:41.100We need, as I've said before, 190-plus leaders in 190-plus countries putting their citizens first, putting their people first, putting their security first, and frankly, supporting the different cultures of the world.
00:41:55.140And what you're seeing in Hungary is just that.
00:43:29.380It's going to take a little more work for Putin to get to that table because he, frankly, doesn't need to right now.
00:43:34.440But we need to turn off the money, get both of those men to peace talks.
00:43:38.420And I know one man who can make that happen immediately, and his name is Donald Trump.
00:43:42.620He can call both of those leaders and get them to peace talks.
00:43:46.340His answer last night was magnificent.
00:43:48.080But I've got to tell you, you set Europe on fire when you laid out the case of how you stopped that war and you stopped the American funding of it.
