Bannon's War Room - Episode 3752： Making Our Systems Less Vulnerable Against The Left

00:00:00.000 You know what he's capable of, you know his upsides, his downsides.

00:00:03.980 It's hard to say what do you expect, because we expected something very different than what we got in the debate.

00:00:09.060 But what do you think would be helpful if he could accomplish tonight?

00:00:15.160 Well, Joe Biden knows the stakes better than anyone.

00:00:17.840 So I would say a poor performance is going to accelerate Democratic officials and voices calling for him not to run.

00:00:24.180 You know, I think an average performance probably is status quo.

00:00:28.240 If he were somehow to deliver the kind of performance, it looks like he could come back.

00:00:31.700 And, Joy, that's where I'm focused.

00:00:33.160 You guys just talked about the stakes.

00:00:34.640 They're enormous.

00:00:35.700 And so this race has to be won.

00:00:38.820 And right now we're losing.

00:00:40.560 And now I want to hand it over to the president of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he has determination.

00:00:47.800 Ladies and gentlemen, President Putin.

00:00:50.840 President Putin.

00:00:52.520 He's going to beat President Putin.

00:00:53.720 My question for you is, how are you incorporating these developments into your decision to stay?

00:01:00.180 And separately, what concerns do you have about Vice President Harris's ability to beat Donald Trump if she were at the top of the ticket?

00:01:10.180 Look, I wouldn't have picked Vice President Trump to be vice president, but I think she was not qualified to be president. 0.92

00:01:17.400 So let's start there.

00:01:19.280 Number one.

00:01:19.900 Presidency is the most straining job in the world, and it's 24-7.

00:01:25.260 How can you say you'll be up for that next year, in two years, in four years, given the limits you've acknowledged that you have today?

00:01:34.720 The limits I've acknowledged I have?

00:01:37.600 There's been reporting that you've acknowledged that you need to go to bed earlier and your evening around 8.

00:01:42.300 That's not true.

00:01:43.720 Look, what I said was, instead of my every day starting at 7 and going to bed at midnight, it'd be smarter for me to pace myself a little more.

00:01:57.080 And I said, for example, the 8, 7, 6 stuff, instead of starting a fundraiser at 9 o'clock, start at 8 o'clock.

00:02:04.780 People get to go home by 10 o'clock.

00:02:07.020 That's what I'm talking about.

00:02:08.400 I'm not talking about. 0.92

00:02:09.600 And if you look at my schedule since I've since I made that stupid mistake in the campaign, in the debate, I mean, my schedule has been full bore. 0.78

00:02:20.520 I've done, and where's Trump at? 0.94

00:02:23.480 Riding around in his golf cart, filling out his scorecard before he hits the ball.

00:02:27.140 I mean, look, he's done virtually nothing.

00:02:31.800 And I have, I don't know how many, I've gone home into roughly 20 major events.

00:02:37.520 Someone with thousands of people showing up.

00:02:39.440 And so I just think it's better.

00:02:45.200 I always have an inclination, whether I was playing sports or doing politics, just to keep going, not stop.

00:02:53.960 I just got to just pace myself a little more.

00:02:57.680 Pace myself.

00:02:58.980 In the next debate, I'm not going to be traveling in the 15 time zones a week before.

00:03:03.960 When there's an excess of love and loyalty, you get 70 million Americans who will not budge from their support for a felon, from a criminal, from an adjudicated rapist who has promised to turn this country into an authoritarian country.

00:03:17.500 That's what happens when you won't set aside loyalty and love and emotion.

00:03:21.300 So the stakes are so high that right now the question is, you know, not that, not how loyal are you, but can we avert, forget about, and we can talk more if you like about, you know, the event that Joe Biden were reelected.

00:03:34.920 But can you avert a second Trump presidency?

00:03:37.600 And there is not a single number out there, not one, you know, Cook Report telling us that we may lose the House that says that Joe Biden is going to win.

00:03:45.840 And so the answer to that, which is a fair answer, is that, yeah, there's still time.

00:03:49.940 There's four or five months to the election.

00:03:51.740 So then you need to ask yourself, what's the trajectory look like here?

00:03:55.280 Are things getting better?

00:03:57.040 If you believe that the problem the Democrats have is that we haven't gotten our message across, the message of the bipartisan infrastructure law, the message of capping out-of-pocket expenses in Medicare at $2,000,

00:04:07.480 and capping insulin costs at $35, and standing up for veterans,

00:04:10.540 if you believe that our problem is that we haven't gotten that message across well, and if you also believe that the president has the biggest megaphone,

00:04:18.560 you have to drop the emotion and the loyalty and love and say, in the next four or five months, is that story going to be told with such precision and poetry and beauty

00:04:29.400 that you will turn around all the numbers that say we are going to lose?

00:04:33.600 And I did this painful thing tonight because, for me, the answer to that is I just don't see that trajectory.

00:04:38.880 I don't see the numbers.

00:04:40.540 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

00:04:47.920 Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.

00:04:53.160 You're just not going to get a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.

00:04:57.420 The people have had a belly full of it.

00:04:59.340 I know you don't like hearing that.

00:05:00.760 I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.

00:05:03.460 It's going to happen.

00:05:04.720 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?

00:05:08.120 Mega Media.

00:05:09.020 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:05:14.940 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:05:18.660 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:05:25.080 War Room.

00:05:25.860 Here's your host, Stephen K.

00:05:27.780 It is Friday, July 12th.

00:05:35.400 I'm Congressman Matt Gaetz, and I've got the watch here in the War Room for the next two hours.

00:05:39.920 We've got Congresswoman Paulina Luna going to join us later in the show talking about inherent contempt. 1.00

00:05:44.600 Andy Biggs, the latest fights on spending on the House floor.

00:05:49.160 Jim Himes, the lead Democrat on the Intelligence Committee, was just there in our cold open wanting you to fully experience his bug out and his pain with the state of the Biden campaign.

00:06:00.080 Joe Biden wants you to know that he does not have a bedtime.

00:06:02.940 Just because he wants the fundraisers to start an hour earlier, he does not have a bedtime.

00:06:08.200 And I've got to say, for a guy who didn't know that Donald Trump wasn't his vice president and didn't know that Vladimir Putin wasn't the president of Ukraine,

00:06:18.760 I would say Biden had a pretty decent night maybe staving off some of the immediacy of this effort to try to remove him in the bloodless coup of the Democratic Party.

00:06:28.940 Joining me right now to discuss this and much more, the brilliant Chip Roy from Texas.

00:06:34.360 Chip, thanks for being here.

00:06:35.500 I want to get to your efforts to secure the vote and stop the tens of millions of illegal aliens in this country from getting access to the ballot and diluting the power of our movement in this upcoming election. 0.92

00:06:47.060 But first, I've just got to get your take on what's going on with our Democrat congressional colleagues right now after that Biden press conference.

00:06:55.240 Assess how you think Biden did and what stage of grief our Democrats find themselves in.

00:07:01.640 You know, I was reminded last night there was a great Dennis Miller skit from the 1980s.

00:07:07.300 And he's talking about when Reagan was going to be 77 by the end of his second term.

00:07:11.040 And he quipped, he goes, you know, 77.

00:07:13.720 My grandfather is 77 years old and we won't let him use the remote control.

00:07:17.480 And, you know, that's all I could think about last night while I was watching Joe Biden kind of daughter around the stage.

00:07:23.740 And as you said, he's set the bar so low in terms of our expectations while we watch him, you know, in his diminished capacity that he actually had an OK night.

00:07:32.260 So to answer your question, our Democratic colleagues are in the worst possible situation right now because there's a block of them that are looking at this guy and going because they know the truth.

00:07:41.800 He has no business being in the White House right now, much less being a candidate.

00:07:47.280 But there's a bunch that are looking at the polls.

00:07:49.460 They're trying to guess.

00:07:50.380 And I go, my gosh, we're going to go to Kamala Harris.

00:07:52.360 He did OK.

00:07:53.780 We can't abandon him.

00:07:54.960 They're all tied up in knots.

00:07:56.140 And, look, I think we just got to keep focusing on what President Trump's going to say next week, talking about all the great policies, be organized, be solid Republicans.

00:08:04.460 But we got to keep turning the screws on them on this.

00:08:07.280 They know this guy is not mentally competent.

00:08:10.040 He cannot carry out the powers and duties of the office.

00:08:12.680 They know their vice president, who was literally a DEI vice president.

00:08:17.060 Like, they got mad at me because I said that.

00:08:19.520 They literally, in Biden's Senate, in the summer of 19, he said, I'm going to pick a female minority. 0.99

00:08:24.840 That's not the same as President Trump, who says, I'm going to pick the best candidate.

00:08:28.220 I don't care who they are, what their race is, where they're, you know.

00:08:31.040 And so I think we got to just keep putting the screws on them.

00:08:34.100 They're tied up in knots.

00:08:37.580 You mentioned President Trump.

00:08:38.900 He's come out with a big statement regarding the legislation you moved off the House floor this past week.

00:08:44.300 President Trump saying Republicans in Congress should attach the very important SAVE Act to the next continuing resolution.

00:08:51.420 Stop the steal. Guard the vote.

00:08:54.220 Let the Democrats try to explain why they are against this not doable Donald John Trump.

00:08:59.580 So walk us through what the SAVE Act is, why you chose to bring it to the floor,

00:09:04.940 and then your response to President Trump's call to actually use leverage of government funding to get this into law.

00:09:11.720 Well, what I love about President Trump is that he actually wants to fight.

00:09:15.420 He actually wants to use leverage.

00:09:16.780 He's exactly correct.

00:09:17.740 We should attach the SAVE Act to a spending bill in September, the CR, the continuing resolution, as we call it.

00:09:23.600 Our friend, yours and my friend, Mike Lee in the Senate, called on doing that just last night.

00:09:28.940 He's the lead author of the bill over in the Senate.

00:09:30.880 I think most of the listeners of Steve's great show are smart enough to know what this bill does and are supportive,

00:09:37.120 but just in case they don't, in short, this bill would simply require documentary proof of citizenship to vote in a federal election.

00:09:44.980 Now, a lot of people say, well, gosh, isn't that already the law?

00:09:47.720 Not really.

00:09:48.820 Currently, the law says that you've got to be a citizen to vote,

00:09:51.400 but we restrict the ability of states who conduct our elections in our federal system.

00:09:57.160 They restrict the ability of states to actually check citizenship.

00:10:01.280 So this bill would fix that glitch.

00:10:03.600 In other words, the federal government can't stop a state from doing it.

00:10:06.500 And we go one step further.

00:10:07.740 We say, look, in federal elections, when we've got jurisdictions like Oakland and San Francisco and New York and D.C.,

00:10:13.460 who are actively trying to recruit and to register noncitizens and illegals,

00:10:18.120 we should make it clear that we're going to have a federal standard that you're going to check citizenship.

00:10:23.340 And it's pretty simple.

00:10:24.420 We allow a lot of different ways to do it, so it'll survive court scrutiny.

00:10:28.240 And President Trump understands politics.

00:10:30.620 Radical idea.

00:10:31.200 Radical idea that we're going to check citizenship.

00:10:34.200 But, Chip, I've got to show some of the debate to the audience that Democrats were actually making.

00:10:39.880 The notion that you would check citizenship would be the new Jim Crow.

00:10:44.960 This is Congresswoman Jennifer McAllen.

00:10:48.220 Go ahead and play that for Congresswoman Royce. 1.00

00:10:50.920 Yes, go ahead.

00:10:53.520 This bill is essentially a poll tax.

00:10:57.420 Because I am not aware of a single proof of citizenship document that does not cost an individual money to get it.

00:11:04.560 Unless we are requiring every state to provide one for free, and then it's on unfunded mandate.

00:11:09.500 This is the 2024 version of the Jim Crow poll tax, and we should vote against it.

00:11:16.460 Only citizens can vote for the United States Senate.

00:11:19.100 Only citizens can vote for the presidency of the United States.

00:11:23.860 So, this extreme mega-republican voter suppression bill is not designed to solve any problem on behalf of the American people.

00:11:34.920 It is designed to jam people up and prevent Americans from voting.

00:11:42.840 So, Chip Roy, are you trying to prevent Americans from voting, or would legislation that empowers states and local governments to check citizenship stop the non-Americans from voting?

00:11:56.500 Who are you trying to jam up, Congressman Roy?

00:11:59.860 Yeah, you know, what's really funny is they try to turn this into the race card, right?

00:12:03.740 They always do.

00:12:04.420 It's the only page in their playbook.

00:12:06.240 And I would note five Democrats voted for this bill, five, 198 voted against it.

00:12:11.980 And of those five, two that I know of were Hispanic members of Congress from South Texas.

00:12:17.400 So, I'm sure they're going to be really interested in hearing how their colleagues think that they voted for a so-called poll tax.

00:12:22.660 Or maybe our good friend, mutual friend, Byron Donalds or Burgess Owens or any number of our members of the Republican Conference that are being accused of advancing a poll tax.

00:12:32.400 It's absurd.

00:12:33.080 What we're doing is simply saying you've got to be a citizen to vote.

00:12:36.240 We provide all manners of ways to be able to prove that, following Supreme Court precedent and making sure there's not too much of a burden.

00:12:44.020 But this is just classic Democrat.

00:12:45.760 Look, they want non-citizens to vote. 0.79

00:12:48.240 They're actively saying it.

00:12:49.700 They admit it.

00:12:50.540 They've got the woman, I can't remember, the congresswoman from New York who literally last year said, yeah, we need more illegals so we can put them in our districts so they can pack them, you know, after the census so they can get more districts.

00:13:00.860 I mean, look, we know what they're trying to do.

00:13:02.820 They're using Medicaid rolls.

00:13:03.940 They're using a DMV.

00:13:04.800 They're trying to force register people who aren't citizens.

00:13:07.560 So we're just making it simple.

00:13:09.280 Like, we think citizens only should vote.

00:13:11.600 This is a clear line in the sand.

00:13:13.680 And Democrats are on the wrong side of it.

00:13:15.440 And we cannot lose the plot.

00:13:18.520 President Trump makes the key point, which is that if this is not attached to must-pass legislation, then the United States Senate has no interest in this.

00:13:27.400 They want to be able to have the illegals here packing districts for reapportionment. 0.98

00:13:30.860 They don't want more congressional allocation to Florida and to Texas and the places people actually want to live.

00:13:37.700 They want to create sanctuary cities, let these folks fill in every luxury hotel there, consume the resources that are intended for the people there, drive out anyone who thinks differently, and then absorb the representation.

00:13:51.660 So we've got to have that leverage.

00:13:54.640 Other than government funding, any other must-pass bill you think this dovetails well with?

00:13:59.620 I mean, honestly, between now and September 30th, I'm not sure there's another one that it's going to be able to jump on that's going to be a must-pass piece of legislation that we really need to do this before September because it's so critical to send this message before November.

00:14:12.100 So I think absolutely the spending vehicle is the right approach to continuing resolution if that's what we're going to do come September.

00:14:19.220 And as usual, again, President Trump is looking around the curve, which is exactly what we want to do.

00:14:23.840 But only in Washington will Republicans go, oh, gosh, we can't have that kind of a fight in September.

00:14:29.100 We already have the upper hand.

00:14:30.860 Let's not risk it.

00:14:32.280 Why don't you guys step on the gas?

00:14:33.880 We've heard that, Chip.

00:14:34.680 We've heard – no, we've heard from all the folks, oh, the Democrats are melting down.

00:14:39.760 Just let them melt down.

00:14:41.480 We don't have to do anything.

00:14:42.840 We don't have to advance any of these priorities.

00:14:45.120 And you've got the right answer, Chip Roy, forcing an actual bill that protects our vote, forcing a lot of the action.

00:14:52.440 Chip Roy, congressman from Texas, great fighter.

00:14:55.460 Thanks for joining me in the War Room.

00:14:57.000 We'll be right back with Richard Barris.

00:16:04.420 Do it today.

00:16:04.940 Is losing the race right now.

00:16:06.400 The polls don't show him winning.

00:16:09.220 And that's consistent.

00:16:10.340 It's not one poll.

00:16:11.260 And he said, oh, who believes the polls are right?

00:16:13.340 And he has defied the polls in the past, and the Democrats defied the polls under his leadership in 2022 with the midterm, sure.

00:16:19.780 But if the polls broadly, for the entire duration of this race, have broadly been accurate, he is losing.

00:16:26.820 And so the thing that people need to hear in order to know that he can beat Donald Trump is how he's going to turn those polls around.

00:16:35.200 What he's going to change in the campaign, what is going to change so that the current status quo, which is him losing, is not going to be the outcome.

00:16:45.580 We've all been having what indicate, and certainly not as much as Republicans hoped.

00:16:50.220 So does that surprise you, Scott?

00:16:52.360 One poll?

00:16:53.160 No.

00:16:53.380 I mean, if you want to know what the polls say, listen to the Democrats who are desperate for Joe Biden to drop out of the race.

00:16:58.940 I mean, regardless of what public data you see, when elected officials with access to their private polling, when high-ranking Democrats are out begging for Joe Biden to do the right thing and step aside, you know what the polls say.

00:17:11.360 The fact is a tied race nationally means Donald Trump is going to win the Electoral College.

00:17:16.260 I don't think this press conference, by the way, is going to change anything, whether he does well, whether he does poorly, or whether he does somewhere in the middle.

00:17:22.520 First of all, he's already committed the gaffe of the day.

00:17:25.060 I mean, he was trying to introduce President Zelensky of Ukraine.

00:17:28.860 He called him President Putin.

00:17:30.340 In terms of what the average American sees over the next 24 hours, they're going to see that clip of him messing up on the world stage over and over and over.

00:17:39.140 And this press conference is not going to change it.

00:17:41.460 But one press conference doesn't change what we know.

00:17:43.980 This is a man in decline.

00:17:45.220 It's not going to get better tomorrow.

00:17:46.540 It's not going to get better in two weeks.

00:17:48.340 And I'm with Van.

00:17:49.020 I do think he's coming out on a carpet of prayer, and I'm one of them.

00:17:52.360 I'm praying for him and his family to think hard about whether he's the right person to lead this country right now and certainly whether he can look into a camera with a straight face and tell the American people, I'm capable of leading it for the next four years.

00:18:07.040 Joe Biden is going to lose.

00:18:09.300 That is what we're hearing from the regime media.

00:18:12.000 I'm Congressman Matt Gaetz here in the war room.

00:18:13.920 I'm joined in this segment by the People's Pundit, Richard Barris.

00:18:18.060 And, Richard, we are seeing the meltdown with my congressional colleagues.

00:18:23.380 We see this big Politico headline that there's the Obama-Pelosi summit, the great wizards of the Democratic Party, the great oracles.

00:18:33.560 They're getting together.

00:18:34.720 They're talking through their struggle session.

00:18:37.980 Meanwhile, Joe Biden says he's committed to the race.

00:18:40.880 Tell us what you're seeing in the numbers.

00:18:42.920 We just came out with one, Congressman.

00:18:46.460 This is the ugliest poll for Joe Biden we've ever seen.

00:18:50.460 And I know with that internal poll that Scott Jennings is talking about, I know the internal polling that he just referred to.

00:18:57.340 It is almost identical to what we are seeing, what the New York Times is seeing.

00:19:01.620 And I just want to stress, though, and I'm on a sow complacency here.

00:19:04.460 It is July, and it isn't uncommon for a presidential candidate who's the frontrunner to be leading and starting to step out a little bit.

00:19:12.520 But I think there's two things that are different.

00:19:14.780 One is it's not usually the Republican candidate who steps out to a lead like this in July or August.

00:19:20.500 It's the Democratic candidate.

00:19:21.920 And then two is also Scott is right that the only thing people are going to see is Biden calling President Zelensky, President Putin.

00:19:31.360 And I think this worry over who's running the country, if Biden is in decline, if he really is senile, who is in charge?

00:19:40.560 That's all we heard, who is in charge?

00:19:43.160 That's the theme of the poll.

00:19:45.120 And I don't know that you can do a press conference and turn that around.

00:19:50.020 There's the biggest problem he has is that he's running against a guy who was president, and he has a record.

00:19:56.140 And the retrospective approval rating of that presidency is skyrocketing right now.

00:20:01.020 So unless he can somehow get the economy to grow at, you know, five or greater every quarter from, you know, I mean, just the quarters are over.

00:20:10.200 It's over, man.

00:20:10.840 So, you know, again, I'm not trying to sow complacency.

00:20:13.400 I just don't know what Biden can do to put people's fear at rest.

00:20:18.800 I don't know that I buy that this race is quite that dynamic, Richard.

00:20:23.360 To be honest with you, I think that you get dynamic races that shift as circumstances change, right?

00:20:29.540 But here, what has caused this collapse in the Biden vote seems to be this searing image of a man in great decline without anyone in control.

00:20:39.960 And it's unsettling, and it's just hard to get off of.

00:20:43.060 Like, I don't know that good job numbers are going to fundamentally change how people are viewing Joe Biden right now.

00:20:48.860 And one thing I noticed in the data I saw is that the Biden collapse seems to be quite gendered, actually.

00:20:54.600 That women are not abandoning him as the same rate as men, but that President Trump's lead among men right now is like 28 points,

00:21:05.120 which is really a ballast against any other type of shift that Biden could try to manufacture.

00:21:13.840 Why do you think it's such a gendered split in how people have reacted following the debate?

00:21:18.660 Yeah, I think part of that is human nature, and we see this in numbers among Hispanics.

00:21:25.000 There are just, you know, there's something about human nature.

00:21:27.800 Men are just uncomfortable with weakness.

00:21:31.380 You know, and then I think men generally, you know, get older, and they know how different they are personally.

00:21:38.800 You know, how much they can go out and, you know, do physical work or how much they could go out and tolerate a long day.

00:21:44.840 So, you know, I do think there's something—

00:21:46.660 Women do age better. 0.99

00:21:47.600 Isn't that right?

00:21:48.480 They do.

00:21:48.840 Wait, hold on.

00:21:49.320 You're onto something here, Barris.

00:21:50.620 They do.

00:21:50.960 Like, you go to any nursing home, and the ladies are all, like, gathered up, playing canasta together, high-fiving, hanging out.

00:21:59.320 And the dudes, for the most part, are, like, you know, wondering who's going to change the bedpan next.

00:22:04.880 So maybe it's that men kind of get the fact that women age better, and they see what they see in Joe Biden.

00:22:11.040 And, you know, we see it all too often just to, you know—I think Axelrod was the commentator who's repeatedly gone to the line that father time is undefeated.

00:22:20.720 There's also a lot of reporting right now that the Biden campaign is testing Harris straight up on Trump.

00:22:26.740 And I want to get into this with you because either they've gone rogue and someone has just ordered a vendor to do this poll as part of the broader campaign to try to push Joe Biden out of the contest.

00:22:39.060 Or there are some Biden people who actually believe Harris will test worse.

00:22:43.580 We saw that Harris X poll that showed that Kamala Harris was actually losing by almost double the margin as Joe Biden.

00:22:50.900 And I've looked at some of these swing state polls, and a lot of the voters there that Biden was able to appeal to in 2020 that might have voted for Trump in 2016,

00:22:59.660 they look at Harris a lot more, like, through an image rating of a Hillary Clinton than they do a Joe Biden.

00:23:07.920 So is the Harris heads-up poll on Trump meant to bolster Biden or discourage him from your standpoint?

00:23:15.460 And then how do you think that image rating is going to play out in the battlegrounds?

00:23:19.080 Yeah, I totally agree with that analogy to Hillary Clinton.

00:23:22.840 We asked an interesting question, which is how comfortable are you with Kamala Harris basically being, you know, Biden heartbeat away from the presidency?

00:23:31.460 And America has never liked that.

00:23:33.280 They don't like her, man.

00:23:34.140 I mean, I just don't know how else there's no nice way to put this.

00:23:37.020 She collapsed during her run for president for a reason. 0.99

00:23:40.880 She's unlikable, and she does test poorly. 1.00

00:23:44.160 We've done Kamala Harris, Gavin News, everybody you could possibly imagine.

00:23:48.720 And Kamala Harris polls among the worst.

00:23:51.160 I would, you know, outside of polls, I would put it in a real-world perspective.

00:23:54.780 Think about, like, Erie County, Pennsylvania, folks.

00:23:57.640 Think about Northampton, Pennsylvania, or Juneau County, Wisconsin.

00:24:01.340 Like, these battleground counties in the Midwest that decide the presidency.

00:24:06.200 Think about Macomb County in Michigan.

00:24:08.580 Who would do better there, even in his diminished capacity?

00:24:12.000 I would argue that Scranton Joe is still a more appealing candidate than Kamala Harris.

00:24:17.520 And, I mean, I have the data to back it up.

00:24:19.360 It's not even, you know, an argument or, you know, I'm coming on – this is coming off with a whim here.

00:24:25.440 This is just the world we live in.

00:24:28.540 She's a coastal Democrat, and she is very different.

00:24:32.400 And it's got an appeal to a certain slice of a Democratic voter, and that's it.

00:24:37.420 You know, even Gavin Newsom as a coastal Democrat.

00:24:38.980 So you're not the only one making that argument.

00:24:41.540 Yeah.

00:24:42.020 She just doesn't have that appeal. 0.99

00:24:43.520 From Delaware, from Delaware this morning, they trot out Chris Coons, Joe Biden's best friend in the United States Senate.

00:24:51.480 And he gets into a feisty little exchange with Sarah Seidner about Joe Biden being the only one who can win.

00:24:58.300 Let's get that clip. 0.82

00:24:59.300 As Trump bows down to dictators, he makes America weak.

00:25:11.260 And that is disqualifying for someone who wants to be commander-in-chief of the United States of America.

00:25:20.200 As President Joe Biden –

00:25:21.740 Well, let me step in and ask you this, because we have some CNN reporting that there are some angry and stunned Democrats

00:25:26.900 that are kind of blaming Biden's closest advisors for shielding him from the public

00:25:33.160 and for the full extent of what he has been going through, which they call the president's decline.

00:25:38.600 One of the top Democrats in close touch with Biden's inner circle advisors told CNN,

00:25:42.500 everyone who expresses any level of suspicion or contrary views, they call everyone and they beat the S out of them

00:25:50.200 and say, stay on message.

00:25:52.900 These are people who are trying to get a message to Joe Biden, and they feel like they're not being heard.

00:25:59.720 What do you say to them?

00:26:03.320 Well, Sarah, you can put anonymous quotes up here day after day after day.

00:26:07.820 But it's not just anonymous, though, Senator.

00:26:10.840 It's not just anonymous.

00:26:11.660 People have come out full –

00:26:13.660 I'll let you answer the question, but it isn't just anonymous.

00:26:16.040 That was one person.

00:26:16.980 You didn't let me finish answering.

00:26:18.480 Sure, go ahead.

00:26:19.960 I'm sorry, Sarah.

00:26:21.640 Go ahead.

00:26:21.980 No, no, you ask your questions.

00:26:23.380 No, I just said it's not just anonymous.

00:26:25.460 We've seen 17 members of Congress come out publicly and say this,

00:26:30.400 including a high-ranking member, the top member of the Intel Committee coming out, Jim Himes.

00:26:36.800 So what do you say to them?

00:26:38.740 How do you convince them that Biden is the person that needs to have all the horses behind him?

00:26:45.280 Okay, now that's two different issues.

00:26:50.140 Let me speak to the first and then the second, okay?

00:26:52.120 You put out an anonymous quote that someone claims that Biden's aides are shielding him and beating the stuffing out of them when they try to express something.

00:27:02.500 I was personally on a call that lasted well over an hour last Saturday where our president kept asking for input, asking for, give it to me straight, tell us what you're hearing.

00:27:13.820 All right, let's bring it to me.

00:27:14.060 Let's come back.

00:27:16.000 It's after that.

00:27:17.300 Well, we shouldn't be worried because Joe Biden is asking for input.

00:27:21.180 Richard Barris got about 20 seconds left.

00:27:23.460 Yeah.

00:27:23.580 Is this a campaign in meltdown or are they going to be able to right the ship?

00:27:28.420 Yeah, I mean, this is as bad as it gets for a presidential campaign.

00:27:31.920 But again, I got to say, I do agree with Senator Coons. 0.95

00:27:35.440 He still is the strongest candidate they have on the bench, which is a sad state of affairs for the Democratic Party.

00:27:43.160 Indeed, Joe Biden still standing.

00:27:46.000 Richard Barris breaking it all down for us.

00:27:47.860 Thanks for joining us on The War Room.

00:29:29.700 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.

00:29:32.480 We're back in the war room.

00:29:40.080 I'm Congressman Matt Gaetz.

00:29:41.640 I've got with me Andy Biggs of Arizona.

00:29:45.080 Andy, we had Chip Roy on earlier.

00:29:47.240 He was talking about the SAVE Act, which the Congress passed this past week.

00:29:52.880 And President Trump has come out with a statement that that has to be attached

00:29:56.300 to the government funding legislation coming up in September.

00:29:59.780 Do you have sort of a game plan, battle plan as to how to get these illegal immigrants 1.00

00:30:07.060 out of the voting system with leverage, with a recalcitrant Senate and a recalcitrant administration?

00:30:14.700 Well, President Trump's right on the money.

00:30:16.400 The only way you're going to actually move this forward is to actually tie it to funding.

00:30:21.880 That's the only thing they respond to.

00:30:23.320 And that's the way to do it.

00:30:25.480 Now, in the meantime, what has to happen is we actually have to pass legislation,

00:30:29.400 make sure we have additional legislation dealing with Help American Votes Act and the VRA

00:30:34.460 that is also tied to funding that says these states are not going to get their funding for

00:30:39.900 other issues unless they actually start preventing illegal aliens from voting,

00:30:46.820 clear off the voter rolls so you don't have dead people voting too.

00:30:50.400 And there's a way to do that, Matt, and it's called the funding mechanisms.

00:30:56.220 And I sure would like our colleagues, yours and my colleagues, to actually start saying

00:31:01.260 we're going to use what the founders gave us as the most important check on a runaway government.

00:31:08.780 And so the House of Representatives also considered funding legislation this past week

00:31:14.920 for the legislative branch functions of government.

00:31:18.280 And, you know, I'm always of the view that you've got to lead by example.

00:31:22.300 And if you're going to ask other agencies of government to take cuts,

00:31:25.280 then you have to take cuts too as the legislators, as the legislative branch.

00:31:30.340 Unfortunately, the bill that Republicans brought to the floor of the House

00:31:35.180 on legislative branch appropriations actually increased spending above and beyond the Nancy Pelosi levels

00:31:41.740 by about $300 million.

00:31:43.080 Andy Biggs and I voted against that bill.

00:31:46.100 It died because it did not have the requisite votes to pass.

00:31:49.260 But, Andy, help this audience understand sort of the confrontation we face

00:31:55.920 within the House Republican Conference when we try to cut spending on anything at all.

00:32:02.980 Yes.

00:32:04.340 Our team doesn't want to cut anything.

00:32:06.400 So if you looked at that bill, they raised it by 5.6, almost 6 percent increase in funding

00:32:12.220 overall for the legislative branch.

00:32:14.060 But when you start looking at it, they were increasing funding for the Publications Office.

00:32:19.040 There's a million here.

00:32:20.040 There's $61 million more for the Library of Congress.

00:32:23.720 And when we go to people, and we actually had three amendments on there to reduce some of those increases.

00:32:31.400 And, Matt, they all went down.

00:32:35.080 You had a majority of Republicans vote for them.

00:32:37.740 But you had 20, 30, in some cases, 80 Republicans vote against those amendments that would reduce spending.

00:32:43.700 And you and I have seen this our entire time in Congress.

00:32:47.480 Our colleagues will talk a good game about trying to bring the budget under control.

00:32:51.900 But they just want to manage the decline a little more sharply than the Democrats do.

00:32:58.300 But they're content with the decline based on our spending.

00:33:01.860 It's terrible.

00:33:02.720 It's frustrating as heck.

00:33:05.620 Yeah.

00:33:06.280 And, I mean, this is what is causing the inflation.

00:33:08.680 I think that is the disconnect that a lot of leaders in Washington don't understand,

00:33:13.260 that inflation and higher prices did not just emerge because some Wizard of Oz-like character behind some curtain twisted some dial somewhere.

00:33:22.060 It is a direct consequence of our irresponsible decisions on spending and on the debt.

00:33:28.180 And then we demand single-subject bills so that we can have amendments to put downward pressure on that spending.

00:33:33.500 And it's our Republican colleagues who are off voting with the Democrats.

00:33:37.740 And we're just not going to have it.

00:33:39.000 So if there's going to be some fund-the-whole-government-all-at-once thing rolling our way,

00:33:45.020 there absolutely has to be the attachment of the SAVE Act and some of the protections that President Trump has called for for election integrity.

00:33:53.380 And, Andy, you're from right in the heart of this battle in Arizona, big Senate race, a number of very important House races.

00:34:02.040 Of course, the electoral votes of Arizona are up for grabs.

00:34:05.820 How do you assess the political climate in the state right now?

00:34:09.360 You know, Cary Lake running an energetic campaign.

00:34:11.820 A number of these House campaigns, like for the Lesko seat, getting very competitive.

00:34:16.380 How hot is the Arizona political climate in July?

00:34:21.040 Well, it's hotter than the 120-degree temperatures we have here, Matt.

00:34:25.340 I'll tell you what's going on.

00:34:26.600 You've got Donald Trump as president leading the ticket.

00:34:31.220 He's up about nine, ten points here.

00:34:34.380 Helping him is that Jill Stein and RFK Jr. are still on the ballot here.

00:34:38.940 So that's good.

00:34:40.560 And if he wins anything more than five by five or six points, that's going to actually help the down-ballot ticket.

00:34:47.180 So we've got, you know, Ruben Gallego, who's the Democrat, running for the U.S. Senate.

00:34:51.360 He is an absolute total Marxist.

00:34:53.380 And then on the other side, you've got Cary Lake and Mark Lamb, both good candidates, both good people.

00:34:58.260 We're going to see one of them is going to emerge.

00:35:00.540 And I think I know who it is by the polling that I'm seeing.

00:35:03.460 But regardless, I think the Republicans are going to pull behind these people.

00:35:07.680 There's dissension a little bit that we have to quell amongst Republicans.

00:35:11.960 We always have that because we're independent thinkers.

00:35:13.840 And I'm working on that.

00:35:15.580 But I think Donald Trump's going to do great.

00:35:17.980 And he's going to have long coattails, which he didn't have in 2020, for instance.

00:35:22.400 But he will have it here.

00:35:24.680 You're going to get a good candidate out of eight, which is Lesko's seat.

00:35:29.100 Cisco Monty's going to come back probably in his seat, most likely.

00:35:33.460 And then you actually have a quasi-competitive race in one other seat for the House.

00:35:38.200 But what's most important, though, is the down-ballot tickets look fairly good for Republicans.

00:35:44.740 And that's what you have to do because the state has to get strong.

00:35:47.080 It's a—Matt, I'll just tell you, this is a really fiery primary going on right now.

00:35:52.980 It starts voting here in a couple weeks.

00:35:55.000 And people are—it's lively.

00:35:58.200 It's active.

00:35:59.120 And I'm hoping that everybody comes back together and Donald Trump will be the reason that they come back together and the anti-Biden vote as well.

00:36:10.360 One of those lively primaries involves our good friend Congressman Eli Crane in Arizona's 2nd District.

00:36:16.540 Kevin McCarthy recruited a candidate to run against Eli Crane.

00:36:20.060 But hilariously, the candidate that Kevin McCarthy recruited, their name was Jack Smith.

00:36:26.720 So I guess, like, Hannibal Lecter IV wasn't available, and they ended up with Jack Smith.

00:36:31.780 But what we've seen there is after two weeks of intense spending on the part of McCarthy and his allies, they've functionally abandoned the race.

00:36:39.240 It turns out it took them hundreds of thousands of dollars to figure this out.

00:36:42.700 But you cannot move voters in Arizona 2 off of Eli Crane and on to someone called Jack Smith.

00:36:49.000 I probably could have told them that with a swift kick to the nuts, and it would have been less painful than what they've endured.

00:36:55.140 But nonetheless, some lessons have to be learned.

00:36:57.900 I do want to talk to you, Andy, about what we're seeing going on right now with the Democrats and Biden and this big Pelosi-Obama summit that we have seen.

00:37:09.460 It seems to indicate to me that the big meeting is coming where they sit Joe Biden down and they get Valerie Jarrett, Susan Rice, Obama, Ron Klain, and they sit down, Jill and Hunter and Joe, and they say,

00:37:27.840 hey, it's time for your next patriotic act.

00:37:30.560 You've got to step aside so that we can all endorse Kamala Harris.

00:37:34.080 I think that meeting is coming.

00:37:36.080 I think it's going to be soon.

00:37:37.400 My latest defection count among the Democrats, it was like two or three senators and approaching 20 members of the House.

00:37:45.660 You know these people.

00:37:47.840 You have relationships on both sides of the aisle.

00:37:50.240 Give the war room posse a peek into just the complete level of despair and dysfunction that we're observing with Washington Democrats.

00:37:59.300 Well, first of all, last night I'm at the airport.

00:38:03.140 I'm talking to Greg Stanton, Democrat congressman.

00:38:06.200 We're very friendly with each other.

00:38:07.600 We've known each other a long time, although we differ on policy like night and day.

00:38:12.040 But I asked him point blank, and he indicated to me that he had just released his statement asking Biden to jump from the ticket.

00:38:22.200 And then you and I both know there are folks on the floor.

00:38:24.700 They've gone beyond despair.

00:38:26.580 And he told me, by the way, he gave me a list of other names that were coming out last night as well against Biden.

00:38:33.480 So this is running rampant.

00:38:36.500 It's actually receiving critical mass.

00:38:39.580 And you and I both know individuals.

00:38:42.140 And sometimes you move despair into humor.

00:38:44.800 And so I've been approached by different guys from the Democrats in the last few days on the floor.

00:38:50.160 And they literally will come up and say, hey, guys, bad news.

00:38:53.580 We're missing the president.

00:38:54.540 It turns out he's talking to lampposts, and lampposts are talking back.

00:38:58.040 And, you know, it's all done in humor.

00:38:59.480 But it's black humor, dark humor.

00:39:01.040 And that's what you're seeing.

00:39:02.160 And it's moving to this point of despair that they have.

00:39:06.040 And they're trying to get beyond it.

00:39:07.460 I view the discussion between the group that you're talking about who's going to come to Joe Biden.

00:39:15.220 This is going to be like those of us who had older parents and we had to do this is that important thing, especially in Arizona where driving is all important, is to go to your ancient, aged parent who is a danger on the road and say, look, dad, it's time that we need to take the car keys away.

00:39:33.460 That's a tough discussion to have.

00:39:35.880 They're going to have it.

00:39:36.780 And I'm going to tell you, the patriotic thing to do here, when they appeal to patriotism, it's not going to be patriotism.

00:39:44.000 It's going to be personal self-interest.

00:39:45.820 And you and I both know this because we've been on these investigations for years now.

00:39:49.300 It's going to be there's going to be pardons for the whole Biden family.

00:39:52.980 There's going to be money that's going to have to change hands.

00:39:55.640 Biden controls two hundred and forty million dollars of campaign donations who gets to take it over right now.

00:40:02.520 The structure set up that Kamala Harris would be the one that takes it over if Biden leaves. 0.73

00:40:07.240 So they have a whole lot of legal issues that they're going to have to work through.

00:40:11.400 But they're also going to have to deal with the Biden family, which is basically a business entity rather than a collegial family.

00:40:19.720 I think they like each other. But the bottom line is it's it's about the money.

00:40:24.780 It's about the power. It's about the pardons.

00:40:27.200 And that's what I see happening in that important phone call.

00:40:30.640 Wow. Wow.

00:40:33.220 Oh, this will be in person.

00:40:34.960 This won't be a phone call.

00:40:35.960 But actually, you frame it up in a different way than I than I thought about it.

00:40:40.260 I viewed this as a as a psyop that basically they had to encircle Biden with a group of people now gain his trust and that ultimately that would be the group that would push him out.

00:40:51.320 Sort of the the Goldwater Nixon moment that they did the watershed moment.

00:40:55.380 But what you're saying is that is is you can get rid of all of the psychoanalysis.

00:41:00.220 This is a business transaction, according to Andy Biggs, that at the end of the day, this is going to be about business.

00:41:06.180 This is going to be about money. This is going to be about evading accountability for the things that have happened to our country and that and that ultimately that's the glide path.

00:41:14.960 We had Richard Barris on earlier talking about how Kamala Harris in those blue wall states in the Midwest.

00:41:21.580 She has an image rating that reflects more Hillary Clinton energy than a Joe Biden energy.

00:41:27.320 If ultimately Kamala Harris does replace Biden on the ticket, how do you think that affects the the desert winds in Arizona?

00:41:36.180 Well, she she's not going to do well in Arizona, I don't believe.

00:41:41.100 And I'll tell you why. Kamala Harris is not liked by you know this, too, by Democrats in Congress, Democrats in the National Party.

00:41:49.460 They just don't like her and they they don't trust her and they don't think she can deliver.

00:41:53.260 And and that same sentiment goes in Arizona as difficult as this these moments are for them to finally get a grip that Joe Biden is what every what you and I knew and every American who was watching knows that he has been incapable for years to actually run the country.

00:42:11.200 So they get there. They're just now coming to light with that.

00:42:15.380 They have never trusted Kamala Harris.

00:42:17.300 The so-called borders are they all know in Arizona.

00:42:20.640 They know what's going on with the border.

00:42:22.700 You've got a so-called borders are who's never been to the border.

00:42:26.560 She's been near it.

00:42:27.620 She had a margarita at a cantina outside the airport in El Paso.

00:42:31.300 But she's never been to the border and Arizonans know that Democrats are doesn't mean you actually have to go.

00:42:38.380 You can't virtually borders are Andy.

00:42:40.440 Everyone's working from home now.

00:42:42.240 You're telling me the borders are activities can't occur from from the Naval Observatory.

00:42:46.640 No, I actually actually Joe Biden appointing Kamala Harris.

00:42:51.400 The borders are might have been the first failed mental competency test that we have on record with Joe Biden,

00:42:58.320 because anyone that would put Kamala Harris in charge of anything has obviously failed their their mental competency test as vice president.

00:43:06.160 I guess the theory was, you know, you send her to some funerals.

00:43:08.720 You send her to some weddings.

00:43:10.280 She can't get around any sharp objects.

00:43:11.860 But everything they they touch seems to break the economy, the border, gender. 1.00

00:43:17.120 They even broke gender.

00:43:18.740 We're here in the war room.

00:43:20.360 I'm Congressman Matt Gaetz.

00:43:21.720 Andy Biggs is with us.

00:43:25.820 There's much more we got to get into the politics on the Hill.

00:43:28.560 I've been telling you about cyber scammers who try to steal Graceland.

00:43:32.680 The FBI calls this house stealing and it's a real threat.

00:44:32.960 To the president, to society, if he is going to run, we're all encouraging him to make that decision.

00:44:41.240 He has said he has made the decision.

00:44:42.940 He has said firmly this week he is going to run.

00:44:46.240 Do you want him to run?

00:44:48.060 I want him to do whatever he decides to do.

00:44:50.680 Let me make it very clear.

00:44:51.740 My main concern is health and well-being of the president.

00:44:54.220 OK, and I think he'll make the right decision.

00:44:56.400 And that's the only decision.

00:44:57.280 The right decision is what's right for him.

00:44:58.680 But he's going to make that decision.

00:45:00.540 If it's right for the country, then we'll make a decision from there.

00:45:03.140 I have complete confidence that Joe Biden will do the patriotic thing for the country.

00:45:08.380 And he's going to make that decision.

00:45:09.800 He's never disappointed me.

00:45:11.020 He's always put patriotism and the country ahead of himself.

00:45:15.440 And I'm going to respect the decision.

00:45:17.160 And he's going to make a decision that is not about him.

00:45:20.980 That is about what's best for our country.

00:45:24.420 And we all know what the challenges are.

00:45:26.880 But I have confidence that President Biden is going to make the right decision.

00:45:32.020 If you're trying to get me to take a position on whether he should continue his campaign,

00:45:35.720 I have great confidence, whatever, whatever President Biden decides,

00:45:42.080 that he'll do the right thing for the country.

00:45:44.240 We're back live in the war room.

00:45:48.520 I've got Congressman Andy Biggs with me.

00:45:50.840 We've got the watch as our good friend Steve Bannon continues as a political prisoner in this country fighting for each and every one of us.

00:45:59.160 Andy, they're all waiting for Joe Biden to make the decision.

00:46:02.440 But it kind of looks like Joe Biden and Jill and Hunter have decided and people aren't willing to accept the decision.

00:46:08.900 What do you what do you make of a lot of these commentators on the left forecasting an upcoming decision while at the same time the sitting declining president says the decision has been made?

00:46:21.700 Well, you're right. I think Biden family has made their decision and their decision is to stay in the race.

00:46:29.540 I kind of hope they do stay in the race. 1.00

00:46:30.960 But but the the the reality is the left wing media that has gaslit Americans for three and a half years over Joe Biden.

00:46:40.680 They're now trying to backpedal to somehow say that they're that they're real journalists.

00:46:45.740 They're not real journalists.

00:46:47.360 They lie to you all the time and they're going to keep lying to you.

00:46:50.380 On the other hand, you got the left wing politicians.

00:46:53.160 They lied to you and gaslit you about Joe Biden.

00:46:56.120 Look, I'll just get back to what you and I were talking about just a second ago in relation to this.

00:46:59.720 I when I've talked to my Democrat friends in the House on the floor, I tell them when we when Trump was in the White House,

00:47:07.740 he had senators and House members coming to the White House daily to talk to him about about what's going on.

00:47:15.040 Legislation, what's going on in the world, that type of thing.

00:47:17.400 I said, when's the last time you were in the White House just to visit with Joe Biden as a friend and talk to him about what's going on?

00:47:24.520 Zero zip nada. They don't do it.

00:47:27.260 And that's because Joe Biden is incapable of doing it.

00:47:30.820 And so they gaslit you. They're going to continue to gaslight you.

00:47:33.520 Don't ever forget that.

00:47:34.940 Well, yeah, I mean, there are people in the witness protection program we have seen more of than Joe Biden before that debate.

00:47:43.220 I mean, they had they had totally bubble wrapped the guy in an honest question.

00:47:46.680 The country might ask is, how could we believe a political party that was lying to us for quite some time about the condition of the president of the United States?

00:47:56.140 And you mentioned the media like I've noticed the media is big mad about this.

00:48:01.220 And I can only assume it's because on most things there is an understanding between the media and Democrats that they're going to work together to lie to the country about us, about the America first conservatives.

00:48:15.220 And it seems to me the reason the media is so mad now is because they weren't cut in on the lie like that.

00:48:21.880 The Democrats actually made the media go peddle this fiction that Joe Biden was together and with it and sharp.

00:48:29.040 And that now the media is like, wait a second, it was supposed to be us lying to the country about the Republicans.

00:48:35.240 Now we were the ones being lied to.

00:48:37.760 And you see it all over the faces of the Rachel Maddows and Joe Scarborough's.

00:48:42.600 And, you know, who can even tell them apart anymore?

00:48:45.380 But what do you think is that is the media resentful of not being cut in?

00:48:50.420 I think you're absolutely right.

00:48:51.920 I mean, think of this, you have this propaganda machine and all of a sudden the propagandists who thought they were in the know, they missed out on it.

00:49:02.180 I mean, they missed out because they did it willfully, by the way.

00:49:08.000 They all knew that Joe Biden was incompetent because everybody knows that Joe Biden's incompetent.

00:49:13.340 I mean, but they felt hoodwinked because KJP was in there saying, hey, look, these are deep fakes.

00:49:21.160 You know, these videos have been altered.

00:49:23.140 When he goes to sit in a chair that isn't there or he's shaking hands with a ghost, any of those things that have happened over the last years, the media was, you know, that they were out there.

00:49:34.820 Oh, no, you know, that's just not happening and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

00:49:39.600 Co-conspirators. Co-conspirators at worst, I would say.

00:49:42.100 Yeah. And now and that and you've seen it when I was when I was in practicing law, when co-conspirators go bad, they go mad and they start ratting each other out.

00:49:51.820 And that's what's happening here. They're ratting each other out.

00:49:55.100 And that's that's what happens.

00:49:56.600 That's such a good analogy.

00:49:59.100 It's a criminal conspiracy. That's a lie cartel.

00:50:02.320 Yeah, that's right. That's right.

00:50:04.620 It's so true. So there's an. 0.72

00:50:07.720 Go ahead, Andy.

00:50:08.340 Yeah, I'm just going to say, please tell everybody to go to Geert Wilders and look at every I've retweeted.

00:50:15.640 Great meme. You got a picture of Zelensky.

00:50:18.220 You got a picture of Kamala Harris.

00:50:19.480 And it's and it's I'm sorry to take you from this, but it's just that one of the funniest memes I've seen forever.

00:50:23.980 It says it says President Putin meets Vice President Trump.

00:50:28.780 And it's just so apropos to everything you and I have been talking about.

00:50:32.560 Any time Andy Biggs has a meme recommendation, the posse is 100 percent here for it.

00:50:40.420 Andy, before I let you go, there is another thing I want to talk about in the Hill.

00:50:44.740 There's a big story about bitterness and dissension in the House Freedom Caucus.

00:50:49.680 I'm not a member of that organization.

00:50:51.280 You formerly led it.

00:50:52.660 I am a huge admirer of the Freedom Caucus.

00:50:55.020 I I attempted times to be an influencer of the good work that inspires so many around the country.

00:51:00.880 Can you give people hope that the Freedom Caucus is going to continue to be a beacon,

00:51:05.320 a shining light for fighting conservatives on Capitol Hill?

00:51:09.120 Absolutely.

00:51:09.840 We're we're together.

00:51:10.960 We're united.

00:51:12.100 There's always you know, when you're close with a band of brothers, there's always going to be some rubs now and then.

00:51:16.800 But we're all in it together.

00:51:18.180 We're still on the same page.

00:51:19.860 We're still fighting.

00:51:20.780 You know, you look at the people who are on how we voted this this week on those bills and the amendments.

00:51:26.740 You and I talked about we're united.

00:51:28.860 We're going to go forward.

00:51:29.740 Freedom Caucus is going to be stronger than ever, I believe, going forward.

00:51:33.300 And I would always remind people, you know, the HFC with our friends like you and Timmy Burchett and Corey Mills and others.

00:51:41.860 We were the ones that always had Donald Trump's back on the Make America First agenda.

00:51:48.000 And and you you were right there with us.

00:51:50.900 I always viewed you as kind of an associate member of HFC.

00:51:54.060 But the reality is we're going to be there again, continue to fight for America first,

00:51:59.620 because that is the way we're going to turn this ship around.

00:52:03.880 And the ship does need to be righted.

00:52:05.940 So thanks.

00:52:06.860 Thanks for that, Matt.
