this is the primal scream of a dying regime pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on
00:00:10.600
these people here's not got a free shot all these networks lying about the people the people have
00:00:17.180
had a belly full of it i know you don't like hearing that i know you try to do everything
00:00:20.940
in the world to stop that but you're not going to stop it it's going to happen and where do
00:00:24.320
people like that go to share the big line mega media i wish in my soul i wish that any of these
00:00:32.040
people had a conscience ask yourself what is my task and what is my purpose if that answer is to
00:00:39.600
save my country this country will be saved war room here's your host stephen k band
00:00:47.500
uh rupert murdoch to step down as chair of fox and news corps after a seven decade career uh this
00:00:59.880
story by joe flint and amal sharma and says at 92 years old murdoch will exit his role atop each
00:01:06.860
company in november lachlan murdoch uh will become the sole chair of that company and continue
00:01:12.500
as fox corps uh executive chair and ceo and uh they write in the wall street journal murdoch
00:01:20.940
stepping back at an important moment for both wings of his media empire as they confront a
00:01:24.880
fundamental challenge in the media landscape fox a relatively small player in an entertainment
00:01:30.080
industry now dominated by titans is wrestling with the profound implications of cable cord cutting and
00:01:35.140
the growth of streaming news corp owner of the wall street journal times of london and other
00:01:39.660
publications is trying to find the right formula for digital growth amid a fierce battle for
00:01:44.740
subscribers and online ad dollars and uh it is hard uh not to look back at the career
00:01:52.920
and conclude what the wall street journal uh concluded that uh along with ted turner
00:01:59.200
some of the redstone and a handful of other uh media titans uh this guy uh really helped shape the
00:02:08.220
media landscape uh that we've all been living through for the past 30 years uh rupert murdoch
00:02:13.700
is unquestionably a media titan but also a political one and that separates him from some of the other
00:02:21.220
names you just mentioned of course he gave birth to fox news here in the united states uh which became
00:02:26.200
the first conservative leaning cable network and has become such a dominant figure in republican and
00:02:32.180
national politics now for almost 30 years so everything you said is right this is a moment of transition
00:02:37.540
for both the newspaper industries which of course he owns a lot of the british tabloids the wall street
00:02:42.580
journal the new york post uh as well as of course in television as well as we see more and more cable
00:02:48.360
cord cutting pivots to streaming in fits and starts so that's all significant lachlan murdoch now
00:02:54.000
is going to be running he is seen politically as perhaps even to the right of his father on many issues
00:02:59.080
more of a populist so we will need to see how this shakes out here for this republican primary going forward
00:03:05.920
and the national media landscape writ large in the months and years ahead and they cannot this cannot
00:03:11.220
be overstated though of course rupert murdoch's age suggested this was coming at some time soon
00:03:15.360
and it ends a game of real life succession wondering who would take over the show in part
00:03:20.120
based on the murdochs but this is a seismic moment for both the media and political landscapes of our
00:03:26.220
country well you can't look at the media landscape and pick out an individual company a media company a pure
00:03:32.020
media company that isn't having some difficulty given the pace of the pace of change within the
00:03:37.940
media yeah i mean even disney is having problems the walt disney company is having problems but
00:03:43.580
rupert murdoch rupert murdoch is one of the more significant features of the 20th and 21st century when
00:03:50.040
it comes to the media rupert murdoch and roger ailes literally the two of them changed the nature of the
00:03:57.880
political landscape that we talk about every day that we've talked about for two or three decades
00:04:02.840
they changed it they changed how people think we had a politics in this country
00:04:07.000
as you okay denver anytime thank you when i speak please cut it um it's thursday 21 september
00:04:16.360
year of earlier 2023 we had a long uh tee up for that where my continual beatdown of the foreigners
00:04:22.320
that runs uh tv for stupid people and have done so much to help destroy this country because they
00:04:29.140
were um they allowed the republican party and allowed the the the hard-working patriots that supported it
00:04:38.080
and thought they were actually uh making changes in this country this country needs to back the iraq war
00:04:45.780
to back the afghanistan war to um you know do all of bush's stuff after 2008 the financial collapse
00:04:55.080
and then really never address because they never cover really economics over their business or capital
00:05:00.720
markets because they want you stupid the reason we got in this thing with the 33 trillion dollars
00:05:06.420
a big part of that's on the shoulder of fox news and of course you've heard me rant at the speeches and
00:05:10.660
all that let me give you the reality check one he was terrible in politics he hated trump he was
00:05:17.640
against us in 16 he tried to kneecap trump in the in the first with megan kelly's instrument he fought
00:05:22.980
us the entire way in the white history his open disdain for president trump is legendary right now this
00:05:29.540
whole debate is the murdoch process for the keebler elves and the keebler elves to show you how keebler
00:05:36.000
elf they are there's a the report out today on the polling that desantis is in fifth place in
00:05:41.240
new hampshire what are we even doing this thing for and in the in the reality check on tv for stupid
00:05:47.880
people is the son is dumber has less understanding for this country and more radical he's a radical
00:05:54.620
globalist world economic form he and the wife the wife's a crazy part of the climate cult so and you
00:06:02.340
see him yesterday cheerleading on ukraine and they're sitting there going you know dana perina
00:06:06.960
is going why can't we give more weapons why can't we give long-range missiles to hit moscow immediately
00:06:11.540
all of it is just going to continue continue continue you saw kudlow and all the team up around trump
00:06:16.600
what they want is tax cuts 14 tax rates for corporations the world corporations they want
00:06:21.820
to reward with massive tax cuts that's the kind of logic you got we'll get into more of that but
00:06:26.780
is going to join us a little bit later zelinski bad day in black rock uh for zelinski the polls came
00:06:34.040
out because he's undercutting them with ukrainian wheat hungary slovakia and poland the farmers can't
00:06:41.260
make it so zelinski insults these guys yesterday at the u.n says i'm taking you to the world trade
00:06:46.300
organization if you try to protect your farmers and the polls say hey suck on this we're not sending
00:06:51.760
any more arms so now you got a situation he's showing up he's showing up in in dc he's got no
00:06:58.260
allies in europe the biggest ally poland says we're out end quote says ukraine is like a drowning man
00:07:04.320
trying to grab onto anything we'll get all that in a moment honor to have ralph norman uh congressman
00:07:09.340
from south carolina five a great patriot and really the leader or one of the leaders from the beginning
00:07:14.500
of this revolt about the spending rumor has it and this is why we want to get you on congressman we
00:07:20.140
appreciate it because you're a legendary figure with our audience in this fight to save the country
00:07:25.080
from financial ruin rumor has it an ugly rumor has it that you may be supporting the cr now i know it's
00:07:32.340
not because of the debt commission because the last person that would want a debt commission is ralph
00:07:37.260
norman he says we know we got to do we just got to get on with it but what is it about this latest
00:07:43.680
which we've got birchett and gates and you've got your colleagues the guys you've been with from the
00:07:48.500
beginning are more hard line now than ever on this what what has changed you since you're one of the
00:07:54.140
leaders of this sure well let me give you the analogy steve uh it's it's analogy between a train wreck
00:08:01.940
that hits a bus broadsided on the tracks or a train that goes off into a ravine 600 feet down
00:08:08.360
that's the analogy we have now we were supposed to have our 12 appropriations done way before now
00:08:14.740
uh this the september 30th date for the end year-end budget has never changed we've known that
00:08:21.400
be that as it is what we were facing and what has what changed and scott perry is voting for this bob
00:08:28.960
good is voting for this the only reason i'm voting for this is due to the fact that one the democrats
00:08:36.920
had a discharge petition with 213 names on it democrats we were we had 11 republicans 11
00:08:45.660
republicans from new york many of which were going to sign the discharge petition for this reason
00:08:50.560
uh they just can't take a shutdown they wanted a 30-day extension uh and mainly to support the the
00:09:00.160
uh putting biden in handcuffs when it comes to the border the only thing that the uh that republicans
00:09:08.180
have from new york to hang on uh schumer's shoulders is is the uh is the border crisis and that's why
00:09:16.160
aoc got booed off uh my first question is there is nothing we can do to make this president um abide by
00:09:25.000
and enforce the border uh control but what's changed is schumer all the democrats are catching
00:09:31.180
a world of heat that all that to say is we were faced with the the discharge petition which they
00:09:38.420
were going to sign which is would put pelosi's numbers in effect for the next 30 days or 1.47 cap
00:09:46.440
along with strict border security which the which republicans say will give them cover to to rail
00:09:52.740
on schumer and so that's and that's the only options that we had now it was it a good one
00:09:59.840
no would i prefer just to sit back and not get anything to the senate and let them control it
00:10:05.920
and be unlimited spending as de mint said jim de mint told me said norman you got to get them something
00:10:10.760
put it in their lap wrap the uh wrap the the the immigration issue on on schumer they're feeling it
00:10:18.380
that's what they're gonna have to put pressure on biden to do something so it was either
00:10:22.680
unlimited spending and it really wouldn't be 30 days it would be to the end of the year they had
00:10:28.180
support on that and that's that's the thing that we were faced with that's the only reason now the real
00:10:34.000
the the real question is uh that we're putting to mccarthy and the team during the when when the senate
00:10:41.320
gets back what we send over if we had a dollar in cuts they would protest that they would you know
00:10:48.400
spend into oblivion but when it comes back we can't surrender on this we've got to stick with this
00:10:54.820
and so that's what i was faced with and that's why um of the two unlimited spending which had full
00:11:02.240
support or a cap border security which they've got penalties in place and they've got mainly the
00:11:08.920
the democrats are catching so much heat because look at the new york city uh situation look at uh eric
00:11:16.700
the the mayor asking for money for a crisis he's the one that uh calls by declaring new york a sanctuary
00:11:26.280
city so that's where we are i would continue uh for 30 days and i'm going to ask to be on the
00:11:34.260
conference committee uh clay higgins uh now if they surrender and basically end up with a schumer
00:11:42.420
uh pelosi bill then all hell's gonna break loose because we're not gonna go along with that
00:11:49.020
and at that point well hang hang hang one second but aren't we aren't we signaling
00:11:54.840
aren't we signaling i mean the discharge petition is so complicated to get through
00:12:00.920
it would go through are you saying aren't you signaling by caving to the weakest members we
00:12:08.560
have uh the um the the people in new york are running scared because the last time we had a
00:12:15.320
big shutdown in 2013 we picked up nine seats in the senate we held the house i think picked up a
00:12:20.580
couple of seats properly explained like you just open up i'm either going to hit the the bus is either
00:12:26.540
going to hit the mac truck on the highway at 80 miles an hour head on or the train or i'm going to
00:12:31.100
go off a cliff of 400 feet we are on a precipice and you know better than anybody because you're actually
00:12:36.860
a businessman you're not a lawyer you're not a country you're a businessman that's done this to be
00:12:41.800
able to use this and to use this crisis which it is and to sit there and explain to the american
00:12:47.620
people that this that the the spending is what's driving the american economy into the ground don't you
00:12:54.160
think that teachable moment is is worth better than than blinking which we are doing to in your
00:12:59.540
logic you're blinking to the weakest members of our caucus and the radical democrats the a fear of a
00:13:06.140
discharge petition actually and you know that the senate is going to come back it's going to be pelosi
00:13:11.920
schumer is there any doubt in your military mind right now that it's not going to be it's not going
00:13:16.800
to be a pelosi schumer bill quite frankly like where like most of these democrats all the democrats in the
00:13:23.340
house want to do oh absolutely they're going to come back with some insane spending that's where
00:13:28.720
uh if if over the next 30 days and you know i don't think it's signaling signaling anything other
00:13:36.600
than the fact that we put in the senate's lap and it's up to mccarthy and the house which controls the
00:13:42.740
purse strings as you know to say no we're not going to do it then the shutdown will occur because we're
00:13:48.060
not going to agree to that but it was a bad it was a bad um options but no i don't think we're
00:13:54.160
signaling anything for 30 days now the discharge petition it was real uh when you have a mike
00:13:59.880
garcia who is a true patient pay patriot say that yes we're signing that not him particularly but the
00:14:06.020
new york guys um we're signing it because we can't take a shutdown and we can't take we've got to
00:14:12.240
have the ammunition to hang the immigration on schumer they're catching hell now so yes i was
00:14:20.080
willing to for 30 days to one had the spending lock not just uh what pelosi and schumer wanted
00:14:28.140
and then we'll see how it turns out but bear in mind uh the the timing on this should we should
00:14:34.400
never have been here we should have solved this problem um you know back in june or july
00:14:39.900
can you hang on can you hang on one second we're just going to take a commercial break
00:14:45.960
i would i would i would posit that they wanted us to be here for exactly this reason they're not
00:14:53.260
going to do the appropriation we'll talk about this after break congressman ralph norman
00:14:56.600
the former kgb colonel vladimir putin who by the way is no friend of the united states
00:15:04.700
called the u.s dollar's drop in dominance objective and irreversible during the recent
00:15:10.600
brics conference in south africa as brazil russia india china and south africa formally agreed to use
00:15:18.580
local currencies instead of the u.s dollar it's the first shoe to fall we call this
00:15:26.460
the de-dollarization movement now as demand for the dollar weakens the buying power of the dollar
00:15:33.780
weakens that is why birch gold group is busier than ever investors and savers are looking to

00:16:29.560
information kit use your agency do it today here's your host steven k bannon
00:16:37.400
congressman norman's been one of the leaders of our movement obviously is a huge deal when he says
00:16:43.780
he is amenable to this to the cr a couple things mike garcia is a patriot navy fighter pilot great guy
00:16:49.720
but he also and this is with a lot of guys in the military and i appreciate this but it's just
00:16:54.700
these are hardball negotiations and you gotta use leverage he said yesterday that you at the time
00:17:00.240
and all the your cohorts that were assigned the cr were the biggest aiders to the chinese communist
00:17:05.000
party this isn't he just that's just a fundamental misunderstanding the central issue for our national
00:17:11.820
security right now is the uh financial mess that our elites have gotten us into you said it you you laid
00:17:18.460
out a choice it's either the train's going to hit the mac truck on the track at 100 miles an hour or it's
00:17:22.960
going to go off the rails and go down a ravine of 400 feet that's not a great those aren't great
00:17:27.440
alternatives but back to this and i i just fundamentally disagree i i think kowtowing to
00:17:33.980
the new york contingent particularly when hr2 and you saw this yesterday maybe you didn't because
00:17:39.320
you're in conference um merrick garland just lied as bad as my york is for four and a half hours in
00:17:46.780
front of the judiciary committee perjured himself look people in the eye obfuscated just lied even cnn
00:17:51.120
last night so his these answers he gave on the hunter biden thing were not appropriate we have
00:17:55.980
more than enough laws right now to secure the border that that's what helped the new york delegation is
00:18:01.060
explained to them or maybe they go to the border and we can or go to the darien gap with our team
00:18:06.020
and show it that's what convinced the people in new york city the sanctuary city it's nothing in hr2
00:18:10.840
that's going to add that but i don't want to get argumentative what we need is a solution and
00:18:15.840
nor people look up to you one thing when they're sitting there the reason and you were the one that
00:18:22.520
argued this with us back in in the in the in the in the debt debate about the lies and misrepresentations
00:18:29.740
on the financial condition of the country we now have a two trillion dollar deficit as you said we
00:18:34.280
would not under a train which they said they would that has caused the economy slowing down
00:18:39.900
less tax revenues less capital gain taxes because interest rates rub less transactions the fed
00:18:45.800
yesterday just tells us it's going to stay high and maybe one more pop don't you believe that the
00:18:52.380
economy is going to get worse that this gap is going to get as you sit there and look at the 1.4
00:18:56.700
that it's actually the denominator is going to get worse and the gaps even going to be bigger
00:19:01.560
and we're not dealing with that right now this cr lets the game continue to be played
00:19:06.240
yeah but what i would suggest to you steve and on the analogy would you rather hit uh take your
00:19:13.260
chances hitting the bus on the on the tracks or going off a 400 450 foot ravine maybe it's
00:19:18.800
inevitable we're going to go down anyway i would rather take my chances hit the bus and you're
00:19:23.780
talking about 30 days we shouldn't be in this position and it's it's intentional and but the real
00:19:29.280
fight's going to be let me play out to you when you do you do hold it you do you do admit you do
00:19:34.020
agree that this intent they had no intention of doing the appropriations bills in regular order
00:19:38.500
they wanted this crisis to come because to them it's symbolic if we fold now and give them the 30
00:19:44.240
days the next thing you know we're going to have an omnibus you're going to have everything rolled
00:19:47.840
up into one the appropriations bills were rolled for one do you believe this is symbolic to them
00:19:52.080
it's a major victory to the uniparty and the cartel well it's intentional and yes they they're
00:19:59.720
they we were all for five weeks we had two conference calls it never came up about the
00:20:04.520
debt ceiling again september 30th has never changed but for 30 days would i be willing to
00:20:09.580
spend as we have for 30 days and then get at least something now if they come back and surrender like
00:20:18.620
they did on the debt debate all hell's gonna break loose there'll be i would i would submit there'll
00:20:24.240
be a motion to vacate gates is already talking about this if they surrender and give the
00:20:29.440
democrats uh carte blanche spending like the the discharge petition would do you're exactly right
00:20:35.420
that's when all hell's gonna break loose and that's when our votes will we'd never support
00:20:40.300
anything like that but but for 30 days yes i would argue that and i do think it's legitimate
00:20:46.040
that the democrats are feeling the heat they're not going to go to the border i mean they if they
00:20:51.560
were going to do anything they would have done it this puts at least something uh where schumer's
00:20:56.580
feeling very uncomfortable and those in new york do you know that do you do you do you believe
00:21:03.080
maybe so do you believe that this they're running around like little kids is shut down do you believe
00:21:08.740
that's an opportunity for us to grab and to finally be able to get to adjudicate this to the american
00:21:14.540
people or something to be feared this government at midnight on the 30th is that if it goes into the
00:21:20.440
first and and we don't have anything in the government quote unquote this 15 percent are shut
00:21:24.340
down is that not an opportunity for us to seize like they did in 2013 and took the senate in 14 with
00:21:30.200
nine a pickup of nine seats including tim scott of south carolina because people in south carolina
00:21:36.660
got galvanized about what was going on with the obama regime is it not an opportunity to seize or is
00:21:42.500
it something to fear oh no it's nothing to fear it is an opportunity to seize but i would rather do
00:21:48.280
it at the end october 30th and if if they again if they surrender uh i think that makes sense how do
00:21:55.220
you think you got a scott perry or how do you think you got a bob good or how do you think you got a
00:21:59.400
ralph norman it's because those are the two choices and to give them they were excited about this uh about
00:22:06.960
this discharge petition and you're talking about 30 days uh the real fight's going to come at on the
00:22:12.160
30th and i question to mccarthy are you going are you going to put people in the ring that know how
00:22:17.020
to fight not politicians put clay higgins put me put really anybody uh that's been in the you know
00:22:25.320
been in the business arena doesn't have anything to gain or lose on this thing but we lose our country
00:22:30.240
we're losing our country but was i willing to do it for 30 days yes but rather than give it to
00:22:35.580
pelosi it would be a if we had done that steve it would have been through the end of the year
00:22:40.200
uh and it would have been you know total chaos with this and they would have done just just so i can
00:22:49.960
make sure that everybody understands this because um your fan base is is like in shock right now i can
00:22:55.580
tell you are you saying that if you get if you agree the cr and it goes and the scent comes back and
00:23:01.700
rejects everything like that that you are you've given mccarthy a shot and you're prepared to team
00:23:08.060
with gates and these other patriots and move on in motion to vacate that mccarthy has shown that
00:23:12.340
he gained the system and he lost absolutely that's not that's not even the question if he gives in now
00:23:19.680
he gave in on the debt ceiling why do you think we did what we did uh you know i'm the one to vote
00:23:24.460
against the rule uh that defeated the dod on the on the floor and i'll do it again but um absolutely
00:23:31.520
it's a teachable moment but not to as dement said not to get anything back to them to at least be able
00:23:38.560
to raise hell about the the border that schumer is weak on and all the democrats are this is our only
00:23:44.920
issue but now it's only 30 days and it's got a spending cap on it and you know i don't mind doing
00:23:50.640
that i would i would take that choice all day long and the um if it were a long-term deal like
00:23:56.460
through january no absolutely not you'd go in a shutdown and say to hell with any of the end of
00:24:02.200
the middle of the roaders are going to lose their seat these politicians and i guess it happens on both
00:24:07.520
sides they value keeping their seat more than life itself and uh and and again i would hit the bus and
00:24:17.240
take my chances rather than go off a ravine if we granted if we didn't do this uh then we would
00:24:23.840
have been given a green light to all the spending and the policies that we've got in the bill on the
00:24:29.700
cr go away and so yes i'd do it all day long it's not a good choice but again how do you think it got
00:24:36.580
the people that it that it has um so far on this because it's a uh it's untenable but you got to weigh
00:24:44.620
your odds on both chances and i'll take my odds on on this and it's going to be loud and clear
00:24:49.880
to kevin mccarthy whoever negotiates uh the the comp when it comes back which we know it is
00:24:57.360
uh and and you know if they give it away again you'll see i think you'll see the motion to vacate
00:25:04.040
i think you will have an uproar of all the freedom caucus members but now the majority of the freedom
00:25:09.660
if the discharge between go yeah hang on if if if the seven or eight or nine or ten that we have
00:25:17.000
that are hardcore not gonna are gonna lock in here and so there won't be a cr if they go to the
00:25:22.480
discharge if they go to the discharge petition and for the audience that's quite a complicated
00:25:27.500
process of the democrats have to go with with the 11 are you prepared then to move immediately for a
00:25:33.660
motion of a.k. to mccarthy because that in itself that is there any more defining moment that he has failed
00:25:39.540
in every aspect he lied to us about the debt deal he's lied to us about the regular order appropriations
00:25:44.740
process he wasn't able to convince people on the cr and now he's basically had hakeem jeffries
00:25:50.400
rule the house with him as speaker is that not uh an immediate motion of ak to remove him and let's
00:25:56.900
get some new leadership in here hit the reset button and try it again it's a matter of timing i hope we
00:26:02.960
will get those seven on board for 30 days i mean i hope that because um now if it doesn't happen
00:26:09.860
and all everything you said is right this has been planned from day one i'm not naive uh you don't
00:26:15.440
you know again you don't stay out five weeks on on vacation in your district and all of a sudden
00:26:22.740
come back you got a crisis it's it's planned and if we now i hope we do get to votes and you and i may
00:26:27.780
have a difference difference of opinion on this but um i hope we do and then if it surrendered and if
00:26:34.820
this was just a rouge to um get it to the senate and really not mean the 1.47 or the 1.52 those are
00:26:44.180
the two numbers thrown around but you got to remember under the pelosi-schumer plan you're talking
00:26:48.860
well in excess of two to four trillion dollars uh that's what we that's options we're dealing with
00:26:55.980
so would i rather have the 1.4 or 1.52 as has been discussed rather than the two to three that
00:27:02.340
they had the opportunity to spend for the next three months absolutely uh congressman uh what is
00:27:08.460
your social media how do people get to because i i can assure you a lot of the war and posse is going
00:27:13.120
to want to check in check in today would love to and see this legitimate questions but uh you know
00:27:19.500
and i like hearing you've got a great artist ratbralfnorman.com
00:27:23.260
look you're you're still one of our guys so don't we understand there's reasonable men can
00:27:29.220
disagree i do disagree with senator de mint i disagree with you i think it's a time to
00:27:32.760
what i call an investment banker and military this is a forcing function let's force it down
00:27:37.420
to its ultimate conclusion let's take this fight now that we can win but i appreciate you uh we love
00:27:42.500
you uh congressman norman and uh look forward to having you back on in the next couple of days
00:27:46.860
this firefight continues thank you sir for coming in okay steve thank you you got to respect congressman
00:27:54.200
norman he's been in the in this fight he's a guy i would like to have in the negotiating room if they
00:28:00.440
actually get to the table of the democrats i do think that there's a better way i actually disagree
00:28:04.800
with senator de mint and congressman norman as much as i respect both of them and that i think
00:28:09.300
you got a hard seven eight maybe nine i think we can add to it the discharge petition that's new news
00:28:16.100
if if hakeem jeffries is going to run is if he's going to run the house and and the guys in new york
00:28:23.000
are going to fold and i just think they haven't been briefed about how you can turn this to your
00:28:27.100
advantage a shutdown is an opportunity to grab not something to fear remember that it's an opportunity
00:28:33.480
to grab you should choose an air purifier like your life depends on it because it just might
00:28:42.000
more than 35 000 wildfires have devastated the u.s this year the toxins and particles and wildfire
00:28:48.560
smoke can penetrate our lungs and threaten our health that's why envirocleans developed military
00:28:55.060
grade air purification for your home and they just announced their biggest sale of the year
00:29:00.520
save a massive 30 off during their labor day sale envirocleans is specifically designed to wipe out
00:29:08.000
airborne chemicals and viruses known to cause illness allergies and difficulty breathing even
00:29:14.080
toxic gases and particles found in wildfire smoke are no match for envirocleans that's why the
00:29:19.700
department of defense chose envirocleans to protect the air on board our navy combatants and envirocleans
00:29:27.160
comes with a free professional air quality monitor so you know your family's breathing purified air
00:29:32.700
now's the time to save 30 off your air purification unit get the free air quality monitor and fast free
00:29:39.880
shipping that's a 250 buck savings visit ekpure.com and use code steve that's ekpure.com code steve
00:29:50.820
let me repeat ekpure.com code steve ekpure.com code steve take action use your agency do it today get the benefits of the sale
00:30:03.300
in person to congress because a new letter today has enough house and senate members to block the aid
00:30:11.280
and they're still saying they're they're going to refuse
00:30:14.300
i think we all know we've all heard him many times um president selensky is incredibly compelling
00:30:19.400
he's a terrific communicator but that communication is comes from someplace deep and real and ultimately
00:30:26.820
and i keep coming back to this because i've seen talk to so many ukrainians over the last 18 months
00:30:32.080
the real difference maker when it comes to success is the fact that they're fighting for their own
00:30:37.480
country for their own future for their own lives the russians are not uh in the same way and i think
00:30:42.180
that makes the biggest difference and let's keep this in perspective too just over the last year
00:30:46.020
um the ukrainians have taken back more than 50 percent of the territory that had been seized from
00:30:51.340
them by putin starting in february 2022 now the last few months in this counter-offensive it's been tough
00:30:57.100
it's been hard going but they're making progress there too this is not the time uh to give up on them
00:31:02.940
but there's one last thing that's important here we're also working to make sure that we can
00:31:07.660
transition to the kind of sustainable long-term support that we and and other countries uh can
00:31:14.140
really get behind and that means basically getting to a point where ukrainian is standing on its own two
00:31:18.720
feet militarily economically democratically and we've got 30 countries working on that right now
00:31:25.540
um but first off it's just a note psoff we got so much to go through here and the audience should know we're going to be in the
00:31:49.840
But first off, just a note, Pesovic, we've got so much to go through here.
00:31:54.620
And all you should know, we're going to get back into the shutdown.
00:32:10.620
I think he's saying we've got 20, maybe 30 notes.
00:32:16.380
It's an opportunity to seize, like we seize the opportunity in Ukraine.
00:32:20.380
We seize these opportunities, and you see whether you're going to change the dynamic and bring victory.
00:32:27.260
Jack, help me out here, because you're an expert in the area and a former naval intelligence officer.
00:32:34.160
He said the Ukrainians have taken back 50% of the territory.
00:32:38.160
Have they made any inroads to the Donbass at all or Crimea or anything?
00:32:49.000
Has the Ukrainians won battlefield victories, take 50% back?
00:32:54.520
Yeah, if they're talking about they've taken 50% back, he's probably getting his same information from the same place that the White House talks about the United States getting 50% plus more jobs, about inflation being cut 50%.
00:33:12.420
This is just another example of the Biden White House, bold-faced lying to us.
00:33:18.720
If you look at the Ukrainian counteroffensive, it's been a complete failure.
00:33:25.140
That's why they're over talking about the two-track diplomacy with Russia, with Lavrov, talking about how we can find a way to come to some negotiation.
00:33:32.180
Now, Nuland, on the other hand, she wants to go all in.
00:33:35.420
Nuland and Kagan, her husband, they want to go all in.
00:33:42.820
Because they want to do everything to destroy Russia, even if it means destroying Ukraine itself.
00:33:53.300
Actually, Victoria Nuland is the one in charge.
00:33:56.900
But you go and look at Zelensky, his trip right now to the United States, this is even potentially a bigger failure than the counteroffensive itself.
00:34:07.120
Because he's got today, all right, he's going to Congress, no joint session.
00:34:11.120
Compare where we are, where Zelensky is today, from one year ago.
00:34:16.340
And for once, there'll be two people dressed like slobs in the Capitol.
00:34:24.120
And so you've got last year, joint session of Congress, goes out, has the joint presser with Biden, the state address, all of it.
00:34:40.080
Now he's going over to the White House later this afternoon.
00:34:45.560
Hold it, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
00:34:54.200
Because politically, McCarthy, he also asked for a forum of all the House guys in the White House said that they would give it, the House, a classified briefing before.
00:35:03.980
And McCarthy said the members don't have an interest, number one.
00:35:16.220
So he has no joint session, which he requested.
00:35:20.080
He has – they got no briefing because they didn't want one.
00:35:26.180
They don't want him in there pitching the conference.
00:35:29.540
It's a closed-door meeting with just McCarthy and a few of his henchmen, correct?
00:35:37.500
Then the Senate that's going to be in the old Senate chambers is not this big thing they had planned.
00:35:42.140
And we know Rand Paul and others are already stepping up and saying they will not approve any spending bill whatsoever has a penny in it for Ukraine.
00:35:50.140
Then at the White House, is there going to be a big joint press conference with the world's media sitting right there and sees Biden and Zelensky side by side as part of Biden, whatever he needs for however long it takes, sir?
00:36:03.300
They're going to be doing a meeting and then an expanded meeting.
00:36:06.560
So he's getting his Oval Office meeting with Biden.
00:36:09.120
I'm sure he'll get photos out of that, but that's it.
00:36:19.920
Remember, last year, he's out there flying the flag of Ukraine that flew over Bakhmut and said, we are going to win Bakhmut.
00:36:28.380
Then you said you were going to win the counteroffensive.
00:36:35.460
And this is the biggest, really, rift, I think, in international politics today that we're looking at, that the president of Poland went to the United Nations.
00:36:49.640
This is about them trying to ruin Polish farmers.
00:36:51.860
He goes up there, Zelensky, in his UN address, and he accused Poland of throwing them under the bus because Poland says we're going to protect our farmers and we're not going to allow the unrestricted sale of cheap Ukrainian grain into Poland.
00:37:10.860
He says, number one, we're cutting Zelensky off.
00:37:16.000
No country on earth has done more for Ukraine than Poland.
00:37:24.220
Coming up next year, those refugee benefits are going to be suspended.
00:37:33.800
If you want to go fight for Ukraine, it's right there.
00:37:41.520
Then he cuts an interview afterwards on the sidelines out on the street in New York where he said, and he played it there.
00:37:47.200
What he's saying is, is Ukraine at this point, and he's referring to Zelensky directly.
00:37:52.220
He's not talking about the Ukrainian people and everyone needs to understand this.
00:37:55.320
He's saying the Ukrainian government has become like a man who's drowning that's trying to drown everyone with them and pull them down into the water.
00:38:08.720
I think at this point, Zelensky needs to be very careful because if he's not thinking straight, he's going to go out like High Sierra.
00:38:17.500
Now, hold it, hold it, hold it, hang on, hang on.
00:38:20.220
Now, correct me if I'm wrong, and this is not because of your Polish heritage, but correct me if I'm wrong.
00:38:25.480
Are the polls not – when I'm ripping on NATO and when I was working for President Trump in the White House because all the deadbeats in NATO won't pay their bills.
00:38:34.160
Are the polls not the one group in NATO that always gets 2% or more?
00:38:39.820
Are the polls not actually our best out – when we talk about Europe and all the happy talk with the French and all this, isn't it Poland that's really America's true ally in Western Europe, sir?
00:38:51.040
I mean, Poland, people have referred to it occasionally as the 51st state.
00:38:56.160
It's one of the most pro-American states in all of the European Union, certainly within NATO.
00:39:02.280
Everybody remembers when President Trump there, that Warsaw speech, which – what can I say?
00:39:07.120
I'm biased, but I actually do think that's my favorite Trump speech of all time.
00:39:10.980
When he went out there and gave the full-throated endorsement of Western civilization, talked about what we're fighting for, our borders, our language, our culture, our religion, our history.
00:39:23.400
This is the new – because Poland, of all countries, understands what happens when you are overrun, when you are occupied.
00:39:31.740
Over 100 years, Poland's been occupied, invaded, divided, et cetera.
00:39:36.680
How did the Polish people survive throughout that time?
00:39:39.740
Well, they kept their borders, they kept their language, they kept their religion, they kept their culture, they kept their families, and they're holding the line even now against the open borders and the mass migration, the invasion of Southern Europe that's going on right now from Africa.
00:39:56.840
And you've got Tarchinsky went down, checked out the island where they're flooding the Africans into Italy.
00:40:02.980
And so we can see that Poland has been a bulwark against all of these things and stood with the United States.
00:40:09.460
So what – isn't – okay, so when the Poles say no more arms, that's a papal bull.
00:40:20.020
Slovakia, you've got the populace up 20 or 25 points.
00:40:22.780
His program – and these are frontline nations.
00:40:27.200
He's sitting there saying nothing, no more, not another penny for Ukraine.
00:40:39.700
And for the poor Polish farmers, they're only cutting them with this mass grain because Ukraine is like the Kansas.
00:40:45.140
And Hungary, all these guys sitting there saying you can't destroy farmers.
00:40:47.880
Instead of working with them, Zelensky insults them at the UN and says, hey, we're going to go to the World Trade Organization.
00:40:55.740
And Duda came back and said, hey, have a suck on this.
00:41:00.660
And he said the truth that in Washington, D.C., only Human Events Daily and Charlie Kirk and ourselves and a few others have been hammered against Conservative Inc.
00:41:11.380
It's like a drowning man grabbing onto anything and going to take everybody down with it, right?
00:41:17.020
That is exactly what Victoria Nuland – go ahead.
00:41:20.940
Speaking of drowning men, we should also point out that after putting me on a hit list, this transgender spokesman for the Ukrainian military has been summarily fired and placed under investigation.
00:41:34.800
Because I don't know if anyone explained this to people who didn't serve in the military before.
00:41:39.160
But when you go and join a foreign military, that means you're coming under something called the Uniform Code of Military Justice or whatever that country's equivalent is of it.
00:41:53.700
You're a soldier of that nation's – you're wearing foreign cloth.
00:41:58.500
You do not get the protections that a status of forces agreement would provide.
00:42:05.140
That means that that nut job that was up there ranting about how people like Jack Posobiec, people like Gonzalo Lira, who's a hostage right now, are going to go down.
00:42:15.860
You're now under investigation from the very same agency you threatened me with.
00:42:20.060
So here's what I'm going to say to Zelensky, Steve.
00:42:22.500
I threw out – I said we'd get him the McMansion in Sarasota.
00:42:28.300
No Sarasota because he didn't take me up on that.
00:42:30.600
Now we're going to talk Puerto Rico, all right?
00:42:33.900
We can maybe get you a plane to Puerto Rico, Zelensky, but you've got to do the right thing.
00:42:39.180
Go meet with McCarthy right now and then tell him, sir, I'll give you all the receipts on Hunter Biden.
00:43:01.580
That's your choice, not mine, but maybe Puerto Rico.
00:43:05.720
Jack, how do people get human events daily at 2 o'clock on RVs on fire, your Twitter feeds on fire, for knowledge about geopolitics, finance, culture, everything that's happening?
00:43:15.880
And by the way, the polls did implement Michael Savage's language, borders, culture.
00:43:27.660
Of course, from Follow Me, it's human events, 2 p.m. Eastern, every afternoon.
00:43:32.520
We've got a massive show that's going to be coming up today.
00:43:40.780
By the way, Steve, he edited his U.N. speech to add more people in the audience, but they forgot that he actually added himself in the audience.
00:43:51.620
For Ukrainian media, they've gone full North Korea.
00:44:01.700
I am the last person on earth to nag about your diet.
00:44:08.640
I think you can see I don't always make the healthiest food choices either.
00:44:13.700
But I will share that the Mayo Clinic says if you want to help prevent heart disease, lower blood pressure, and cholesterol, eat five servings of fruits and vegetables every day.
00:44:29.960
That's why I take field of greens every morning.
00:44:33.060
Unlike the others, each fruit and each vegetable and field of greens was medically selected by doctors to support your vital organs like heart, lungs, kidneys, and immune system.
00:44:44.640
Flu season is here, and I trust field of greens to help me stay healthy.
00:44:50.700
You feel better with more energy, and you'll notice your skin, hair, and nails will look healthier, too.
00:44:58.200
If you don't always eat right and exercise, join me and take field of greens.
00:45:02.040
Now, let me get you started with 15% off your first order.
00:45:05.960

00:45:19.260
And you'll get what the Mayo Clinic says is what you need in fruits and vegetables every day.
00:45:41.280
Andy Ogles said on, and we're going to try to get a clip later.
00:45:44.500
Andy Ogles said on the John Ferdinand show right before he came on, he says we got 20 to 30 votes.
00:45:57.320
You know, people last night, someone on CNN said, oh, no, the seven have cratered.
00:46:01.060
Burschett came on and said we're harder than ever.
00:46:05.940
You heard the case presented by Congressman Ralph Norman, who's been one of the best guys in this.
00:46:12.180
And he's saying, you know, because of the discharge petition, and this is a complicated parliamentary maneuver that essentially the Democrats get in there and do something if they have enough Republicans to work with them.
00:46:31.940
But if it's not overblown, it should lead to the immediate removal of Kevin McCarthy.
00:46:35.900
Never lose sight of the fact of what we're talking about here.
00:46:40.500
And even when you're going to see numbers 1.475, 2.6, those numbers are, I think, quite frankly, you buy into that whole thing.
00:46:48.420
It's more of the meaningless hair on fire, run around CNN that a government shutdown is, you know, you got to keep the government open, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
00:46:58.840
You saw yesterday, and we're going to try and maybe play a clip or two in the second hour, because Mike Howell is going to join us from Heritage.
00:47:09.060
He has a blistering report on really the Hunter Biden impeachment, the impeachment of around Hunter Biden and what has happened with him and the CCP and others about taking bribes for action, which is what this is about.
00:47:23.960
And you see Garland, they will sit there and lie to your face.
00:47:29.720
And this is why you have to be very careful, and I think grab the opportunity now for the American people to see of exactly how they've lied about the financial situation of the country and how they've lied about the invasion of the country, which, quite frankly, the invasion of the country has led not in small part to the financial collapse of the United States of America.
00:47:53.400
We're dealing with the financial collapse and the implosion of the greatest nation in the history of the earth.
00:47:58.660
And this is why this topic is so urgent, because this republic was a bequeath to us for many, many generations that defended her and cherished her and built her.
00:48:10.400
And in the span of a few years, we have seen the absolute, this is not managed to climb by our elites, which it was before.
00:48:20.340
This is an implosion, the bottom falling out of the greatest country on earth.
00:48:28.040
They're going to look you in the eye and bald face lie.
00:48:32.100
And let's play the B-roll, play the B-roll of the great reporter for Fox who does some terrific work on the border.
00:48:39.940
And he's got this, you know, he's got Abbott and these guys are adamant.
00:48:43.420
And the reason Abbott's adamant, they saw what happened in the Ken Paxson situation.
00:48:51.160
They saw the grassroots and particularly one of the biggest groups was Texas for a secure border.
00:48:58.680
Remember, Abbott's kind of one of the Bush factotums, part of the Bush.
00:49:03.020
He's doing it because he's got a bayonet to his back.
00:49:05.360
But now they've got, you know, they've got the pontoons down there.
00:49:08.520
They've got the bob wire, the razor wire, and the federal girls make a big deal.
00:49:13.060
And now you've got a massive, at Eagle Pass, Texas, you've got a massive another invasion.
00:49:20.520
And Todd Benzman's here every day, comes on the show every other day, every couple of days with other blockbusters,
00:49:25.240
including the IG report from a week or so ago that says, hey, they're not even pretending to detract him in the United States.
00:49:32.500
They want to make sure what Trump said yesterday in Iowa, we are going to have the largest domestic mass deportation program.
00:49:42.740
He said a domestic mass deportation, they'll be the largest in American history.
00:49:54.800
Benzman, I'm going to hold you through the next block, and I want everybody to look at this footage.
00:50:09.380
Walk through what your FOIA request showed of what they're doing to exacerbate the invasion of our beloved country, sir.
00:50:16.800
The Biden administration's DHS has been authorizing the flights from foreign countries directly into U.S. airports.
00:50:33.060
So far, 221,000 migrants uncounted, never discussed, never published before until now.
00:50:45.700
Are you telling me that from places outside the United States, the Biden regime has paid for aircraft so the optics are not coming across the border to take illegal aliens, game the amnesty system, and fly them into the heart of the country on how many different airports?
00:51:06.440
So this is a family reunification parole program using a CBP-1 app, but in foreign countries south of Mexico, the administration lets them apply for travel authorization, and then they have to buy their own airfare, which is far less than if they were to pay for smuggling, so it's a great deal for them.
00:51:31.700
And then they pick whatever airport they want to fly into.
00:51:34.840
These are just four nationalities that we got through FOIA litigation at Center for Immigration Studies.
00:51:41.420
There are also Colombians, Ukrainians, Salvadorans, Guatemalans, and Hondurans that we don't even know about.
00:51:50.780
So the 221,000 that we disclose in the piece today at CIS.org is going to be an undercount.
00:51:58.940
There's going to be far more than that, and that's just for this year since January.
00:52:07.480
They will not give us the names of the airports.
00:52:10.900
Imagine for just one minute if the mayor of New York were to find out that it's not Greg Abbott bussing them into the city.
00:52:19.020
It's the administration authorizing them to fly into JFK, which I believe is one of the airports.
00:52:36.660
I had no problem with them, but that's marginalia.
00:52:45.920
Listen, for the 13,000 that boarded Texas buses.
00:52:52.900
They're – of course they're going to get – I'm going to stay in the Rio Grande Valley or go to the Big Apple.
00:52:57.880
I'm going to hang down in Del Rio or am I going to get – am I going to get up to Times Square?
00:53:04.520
Because I understand the deeper I get into the country, the harder it is to find me because they're not keeping track.
00:53:13.620
Let's talk how our nation is being destroyed by the elites.
00:53:16.280
They're sitting there and laughing in your face.
00:53:18.880
It takes Benzman – why is – why did Congress not find this?
00:53:22.440
This is with Congressman – Congressman Norman, I don't need an HR2.
00:53:29.780
They're breaking the law and laughing in your face.
00:53:38.020
It's a company that makes a soft gel supplement rich in antioxidants to help people like you and me keep a healthy heart.
00:53:45.140
While COVID gets all the headlines, it's important to realize that heart disease kills nearly 700,000 Americans every year.
00:53:53.520
Yes, heart disease is the number one killer every year, year in and year out.
00:53:59.460
Hypertension, high blood pressure, bad cholesterol, diabetes, all of it affects our heart.
