00:00:00.000this is the primal scream of a dying regime pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on
00:00:10.920these people here's not got a free shot all these networks lying about the people the people have
00:00:17.520had a belly full of it i know you don't like hearing that i know you try to do everything
00:00:21.280in the world to stop that but you're not going to stop it it's going to happen and where do
00:00:24.660people like that go to share the big line mega media i wish in my soul i wish that any of these
00:00:32.360people had a conscience ask yourself what is my task and what is my purpose if that answer is to
00:00:39.940save my country this country will be saved war room here's your host stephen k band
00:00:47.820well i haven't had the occasion to go to east palestine there's a lot going on
00:00:57.400here and i just haven't been able to break i was thinking whether i'd go to east palestine
00:01:02.200this week but i then was reminded i've got to go literally around the world i'm going from
00:01:08.520from washington to india to vietnam to and so i it's going to be a while but uh we're making sure
00:01:17.740that east palestine has what they need materially in order to deal with their problems democrats are
00:01:23.980winning the close races because i think the democrats understand that you know you can be
00:01:28.240the superficial which would what you know what we're seeing on the republican side with substance
00:01:32.800and the substance the policies uh the practices of the biden harris administration improving people
00:01:38.220live look this past week uh this this uh this movement to reduce prescription drug prices that's
00:01:45.960going to help democrats but i have to say something because george i'm old enough to say this uh i've
00:01:51.920seen two movements outside of the social justice movements in my life on the political side one was
00:01:57.420the reagan movement reagan had a hold on his base the country at large they saw him as someone who was
00:02:05.240willing to stand up for american values whatever that might have meant now i thought it was reactionary
00:02:10.040the other movement i saw was barack obama hope and change that galvanized the american people i've
00:02:16.400never seen anything like this with donald trump i mean what doesn't kill you make you stronger i mean
00:02:20.920being convicted i mean being indicted that's making them stronger raising 10 million dollars using an
00:02:26.800ugly mug shot uh to raise money this is a movement and anyone who thinks that you can apply the old
00:02:33.140political rules to trying to defeat this candidate based on he's scary he's ugly whatever you might want to
00:02:40.040this is a movement and we have to respect the fact that it's a movement from the wall street journal
00:02:44.860that has president joe biden and donald trump in a dead heat in a 2024 general election matchup
00:02:52.400in the survey 46 percent say they would vote for biden while 46 say they would vote for trump
00:02:59.160eight percent say they are undecided so in this conversation mixing this in really shows you where
00:03:08.200the country's at joe well and it's gene but i mean just well just look at the numbers gene you've got
00:03:15.300you've got 46 percent of americans supporting a guy who's been indicted four times indicted for
00:03:20.880stealing nuclear secrets and indicted for stealing war plans called a rapist by a new york judge
00:03:27.340saying that what he did was was was akin to rape uh you you've got a guy that's that's being charged uh
00:03:35.740for his uh illegal payoffs to porn stars i mean we could go down the list a guy who started a riot on
00:03:44.040january the 6th uh an insurrection uh had had fake electors had this fraudulent scheme uh to to steal
00:03:54.220votes from millions and millions of americans in seven swing states i mean i could go on called the
00:04:00.760republican a secretary of state in georgia and said steal enough votes for me find enough votes
00:04:06.820so i can steal georgia 46 percent of americans are voting for the guy who said he would terminate the
00:04:14.220constitution to get back into power yeah this is uh those numbers are unbelievable but yet there they
00:04:22.300are i mean the wall street journal does good polling and you know any one poll uh can be an outlier but
00:04:28.500but there have been a lot of polls that indicate that this uh if it's a trump biden rematch this is
00:04:35.240going to be a close election um and again that that stupefies me it should not be a close election
00:04:43.940there is no way that any substantial portion of the electorate should support donald trump after we saw
00:04:53.100during what we saw during the four years of donald trump's presidency after what we have seen uh in
00:05:00.340the the the years since donald trump's presidency after all the the the felony criminal charges
00:05:08.420uh filed against him in four cases with what is basically open and shut evidence um i you know
00:05:16.880the man is is is an accused felon um uh what 91 times or something like that and the total number
00:05:24.320of counts against him yet uh i i for potentially 46 percent of americans are willing to return him
00:05:32.580to the white house uh i it certainly lays out what what this this poll i think does it should
00:05:39.820lay out to democrats that this this is going to be a close election they can't take anything
00:05:45.960for granted um if they should assume it's going to be decided by perhaps tens of thousands of voters
00:05:53.180uh in the swing states that we all know about uh and uh and they better get cracking now because um
00:06:01.960uh there's a real risk and i can't believe i'm saying this there's a risk that donald trump could
00:06:07.540return to the white house well a key part of speaker mcgovern carthy's strategy has been trying to
00:06:12.380convince hardline conservatives to back down as you and i reported mccarthy held a conference call
00:06:17.560with his members last week and he argued that they should save these funding fights for later in
00:06:22.100the year when they actually do their long-term spending bills and essentially said now is not
00:06:26.260the time or place to make these demands about the border department of justice other things that
00:06:30.620conservatives have been digging in over but kevin mccarthy is going to have to make a decision
00:06:35.080pretty soon here about what to do with supplemental funding and whether and how that's going to hitch a
00:06:40.100ride potentially on a short-term spending bill the white house requested 40 billion dollars for both
00:06:44.660ukraine aid and disaster relief but hardliners want to see those issues delinked because they don't want
00:06:50.820to support any more money for ukraine so that really sets up a potential showdown with both senate
00:06:55.940democrats and senate republicans who mostly do support more money for ukraine and i think republican
00:07:01.420congressman mike simpson who serves on the appropriations panel summed it up best when he told me
00:07:07.120i tell people to buckle up it's going to be crazy for september october november december the next
00:07:13.760four months are going to be wild and hanging over all of this is the motion to vacate the speaker's chair
00:07:19.660that is a procedural tool that would force a vote on ousting the sitting speaker it's something
00:07:24.940conservatives are threatening to use if they don't get their way in funding fights so just a very
00:07:29.920complicated dynamic for kevin mccarthy and not a lot of time to figure it out there's an argument
00:07:34.800argument circulating about whether the 14th amendment that prohibits anyone in quote engaged
00:07:40.880in insurrection or rebellion from holding public office bars trump from running for president now
00:07:46.220this hasn't been tested in our system before uh do you think what is your thought on whether that's a
00:07:52.140valid argument i think it is a valid argument uh you know the 14th amendment section three is pretty
00:07:59.200clear if you engage in acts of insurrection or rebellion against the government or you give aid and
00:08:04.720comfort to those who do you are disqualified from running it doesn't require that you be convicted of
00:08:10.860insurrection uh it just requires that uh you have engaged in these acts it's a disqualification
00:08:16.960from holding office again uh and it fits donald trump to a t i think this will be tested when a secretary of
00:08:23.680state either refuses to put him on the ballot or puts him on the ballot and is challenged by a litigant
00:08:29.240um i would imagine it will go up to the supreme court and that's the big question mark through all
00:08:34.460of this which is what will the supreme court do there are prominent constitutional scholars as well as
00:08:41.000prominent progressive scholars uh who believe that he should be disqualified but will the court take
00:08:47.380that step ultimately uh only time will tell but i do think uh it is a very legitimate issue by the
00:08:54.240clear terms of the 14th amendment he should be disqualified from holding office my view the attack
00:09:01.100on the capitol that day was designed for a particular purpose at a particular moment and that was to
00:09:06.920disrupt the peaceful transfer of power as is laid out in the constitution so i think there is a powerful
00:09:12.820argument to be made my my sense is it's probably going to get resolved in the courts but um you know
00:09:19.500i think what we have to focus on on our side is is we just got to win in 2024 it is tuesday 5 september
00:09:27.660the year of our lord 2023 it's the first day back summer is over um school is back i know a lot of people
00:09:36.020started in august but the traditional start of school today everybody's back to work or should be back to
00:09:41.660except for the house of representatives um associated press just put out a huge story
00:09:48.760by steve peoples laying out the 2024 campaign because remember one year from today will be the
00:09:54.660traditional start of when the nation focuses of course we know that's kind of the old school
00:09:59.980politics now a big part of the nation including this audience focuses on what's happening politically
00:10:05.94024 7 let me just lay out what's in front of us because it is quite intense g20 uh totally meltdown
00:10:15.800in ukraine uh zelinski uh firing uh his defense minister uh big questions about where the money is
00:10:22.860uh she not going to the g20 biggest story in the last 24 hours the signal not the noise is guess what
00:10:31.000as war room told you on the day that mccarthy cratered to biden on this horrible two-year uh this
00:10:38.080horrible two-year um debt deal two trillion dollars we told you the deficit was going to be two
00:10:44.280trillion dollars they said it was going to be a trillion we said two trillion uh this thing is
00:10:49.120exploding the phony business press and by that i mean the wall street journal the financial times of
00:10:56.200london the new york times business section the washington post they're all like wow how can
00:11:01.080this be happening with a growing economy how can this deficit they have never called out joe biden
00:11:06.000for any of the lies he's ever said that he's decreasing the deficit that is all uh propaganda not data
00:11:12.040uh before us the stark realization by midnight on september 30th we will have a two trillion dollar
00:11:20.200deficit we told you this back in the spring when they cut this deal this is going to happen everybody
00:11:26.500said oh no this is overreaction two trillion dollars it's and as we told you then now it's structural
00:11:33.180because of increased interest rates no matter what kind of voodoo they try to put on this this is a
00:11:39.080financial meltdown in the country and any type of phony faux prosperity is not prosperity all it is
00:11:46.580is massive government spending and government spending is not a benefit to you government
00:11:51.640spending is nothing more than a tax to you and kevin mccarthy's caught right in the middle of his
00:11:56.220lies now his new lie is no no no no no no no just we just need a cr and then get to an omnibus and we
00:12:02.880need we can take care of this on long-term spending no the game is over the game is over i've talked to
00:12:08.560enough uh uh rational uh members and their advisors over the last couple of days mccarthy is going to be
00:12:16.540put to the wall on this okay he's going to be put to the wall on this no more happy talk no more spin
00:12:22.300you cut this deal you allowed this to happen all the people that came and said we're going to take
00:12:27.300this through the appropriations process we're going to get this all out through the appropriations
00:12:30.540process that was all lies and spin nothing has happened there's no appropriations bills have been
00:12:36.120approved they have nothing and now all they're going to do is do smoke embarrassing i'll throw you a
00:12:40.340shiny toy that oh you can't you can't force the biden regime to shut down their own regime
00:12:45.480because to do that's going to slow down impeachment they're nowhere in impeachment they don't want to
00:12:50.560do impeachment they're just holding that out as a as a shiny toy you've seen the democrats are in total
00:12:56.480complete meltdown because the polling the internal polling is much worse than they're even putting out
00:13:00.760the wall street journals poll has trump in a dead heat we know that those always underweight the trump
00:13:06.040movement and donna brazil says right there at the top of the show it is a movement a movement unlike
00:13:11.280any that she's ever seen before and you see morning joe and these people are just aghast that how can
00:13:15.940possibly be people be supporting this because donald trump put the people of this country in the room
00:13:22.580and allowed them to be decision makers and that's what they hate him the polling internally is even
00:13:27.440better than what is out there publicly and they're in full meltdown now they're in total complete meltdown
00:13:32.280they've got two lines of attack and this is what i want people to keep in mind the one line is all the
00:13:37.560phony uh all the phony uh lawfare that they're coming after him with to to opportunity cost to
00:13:44.000tie him down to game to focus on that the other is the um the other is um this uh attack on the 14th
00:13:52.640amendment the 14th amendment's revving up they know they have no constitutional basis whatsoever for the
00:13:57.94014th amendment none but they're going to try to kick in the state legislatures and make that a whole
00:14:02.340political warfare a psyop that he's not uh eligible because of some uh art that what section three of
00:14:09.740the of our article or section three of the 14th amendment it's complete total nonsense but as we
00:14:14.840told you they're going to try to kick up a firestorm in this but the ticking clock the house of
00:14:20.160representatives going to get back and strip away all the phoniness to what joe biden's been doing to pump
00:14:25.820the economy up with fiat currency that fiat currency be the federal reserve note you've got in your
00:14:32.320pocket printed by the fed okay there's obviously a lot going on we're gonna go from texas to georgia
