this is the primal scream of a dying regime pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on
00:00:10.880
these people here's not got a free shot all these networks lying about the people the people have
00:00:17.480
had a belly full of it i know you don't like hearing that i know you try to do everything
00:00:21.240
the world to stop that but you're not going to stop it it's going to happen and where do people
00:00:24.820
like that go to share the big line mega media i wish in my soul i wish that any of these people
00:00:32.640
had a conscience ask yourself what is my task and what is my purpose if that answer is to save my
00:00:40.580
country this country will be saved war room here's your host stephen k band
00:00:47.800
welcome to the war room it's natalie g winters hosting today tuesday august 13th in the year
00:00:59.440
of our lord 2024 very excited and honored to be joined shortly by our first guest you guys know
00:01:06.500
war room i think really has changed the tide the establishment media fox news controlled opposition
00:01:12.520
whatever you want to call them for so long i think set the the goal posts for the action that we saw
00:01:17.720
coming out of republicans in congress so weak and so feckless accountability meant basically
00:01:24.000
nothing but this show the war room posse you guys have fundamentally changed that in demanding
00:01:29.060
actual accountability actual results to come from congress not just mean strongly worded letters and
00:01:35.320
tweets um but actual accountability accountability like we say it's not retribution it's justice and
00:01:42.020
it seems like the variable we've been focusing on for the last few years at least on this show
00:01:46.060
have been these congressional committees these investigations of course the weaponization one
00:01:50.940
oversight the kind of botched impeachment inquiry but one hearing that we have also focused on is of
00:01:56.980
course going into the debacle that was the afghanistan withdrawal under the leadership
00:02:01.400
of chairman mike mccall over at the house foreign affairs committee we're joined by someone who just
00:02:08.860
two days ago announced sort of in protest their resignation from that committee for i think a lot of the
00:02:14.600
problems that we've highlighted on this show which is fundamentally taking it unseriously staffing
00:02:20.100
problems and a lack of results so we are here to reinforce that messaging and i'm honored to be joined by
00:02:25.940
jerry dunleavy who like i said was a senior investigator for that committee specifically focusing on the
00:02:31.780
afghanistan withdrawal jerry why don't you tell the audience a little bit about what your role was and
00:02:36.600
why you decided to step down yeah so i was originally an investigative reporter um and i covered the
00:02:44.880
disastrous withdrawal from afghanistan i also wrote a book on it and so i was asked to join the committee
00:02:52.140
last year to help with their investigation into the withdrawal from afghanistan and unfortunately
00:03:00.180
uh it's not a serious investigation um witnesses that should have been called that weren't uh witnesses
00:03:09.720
that we did bring in being treated with kid gloves and uh being absolved of any real responsibility or
00:03:18.120
accountability for the mistakes that they made uh questions that we should have been asking that we
00:03:22.820
um you know there were promises made by chairman mccall uh related to uh leaving no stone unturned to get
00:03:35.240
answers about the abbey gate bombing um and those promises just have not been kept um the committee has
00:03:44.140
has not done what it needs to do to get real answers and real accountability i think that answers and
00:03:52.540
accountability are important for the gold star families they're important for all of the u.s
00:03:57.520
service members who fought and died in a 20-year war in afghanistan it's also important for the future
00:04:03.180
uh i legitimately fear that if we don't learn lessons from our retreat and defeat in afghanistan
00:04:12.220
in 2021 that there will be more unnecessary gold star families in the future in the next war that we
00:04:21.260
fight probably against a major adversary i i'm worried about that um i don't think that the committee
00:04:28.920
uh has done um what it needs to do uh related to any of this um and so i you know after a lot of
00:04:37.920
soul searching i did think that it was important to speak up share what i know and see if um going
00:04:47.400
public and public pressure might get them to do what they thus far have failed to and you put out a
00:04:54.640
long four-page letter walking through in detail which i encourage the audience to read but there was a line
00:04:59.540
that stuck out to me uh yet my efforts to fully pursue investigative leads have been repeatedly stymied
00:05:05.440
by our chief investigator and by senior staff and unfortunately sometimes by indecision from you
00:05:11.180
mr chairman now something we focus on a lot on this show is you know are these errors these flaws
00:05:17.180
that we're seeing are they a result of incompetence right people just not knowing what questions to ask
00:05:22.100
what witnesses to bring in or is it something more and i dare you know it hurts me to say the word
00:05:27.880
nefarious but is there something more nefarious going on in other words is there a reason why they don't
00:05:33.040
want to get to the bottom of this from your kind of inside baseball perspective you know why are these
00:05:38.480
logical obvious questions these logical witnesses to call not being called some of it is hard to
00:05:45.760
understand uh house born affairs committee largely and usually has jurisdiction over state department
00:05:52.640
however this investigation by chairman mccall was given broad latitude to also investigate
00:05:59.600
the military side of things now on the state department side uh some of the witnesses that we did bring in
00:06:07.360
were treated far too gently uh zalmi khalizad comes to mind um sometimes we failed to bring in basic
00:06:16.920
witnesses on the state department side uh names that people probably know uh wendy sherman and victoria
00:06:24.000
newland uh they uh have played i think often pretty negative roles in u.s foreign policy in the past
00:06:32.000
they had their hands on the uh afghanistan portfolio in 2021 for reasons unknown to me despite my urging they
00:06:41.200
were never brought in for questioning on the military side of things where i think the problem is uh when it
00:06:48.720
comes to this committee when it comes to chairman mccall uh is there was a decision that was made
00:06:57.120
to sort of let the military commanders off the hook for the mistakes that they made um now in 2021
00:07:06.560
did military commanders and generals perform better than the state department or the biden white house i
00:07:13.600
think the answer to that is probably yes but that's about as low a bar to clear as possible
00:07:18.560
that's a bar that's on the floor so the military commanders need real accountability as well and
00:07:25.840
i just want to emphasize i'm not talking about the marines and soldiers for instance on the ground
00:07:33.200
at kabul airport in the evacuation they performed heroically part of why they were put in such a
00:07:39.680
terrible situation was their military commanders and generals such as chairman milley and general
00:07:48.400
mckenzie uh they failed uh in their roles those military commanders and there is a sense on the
00:07:56.800
committee and from chairman mccall that the military leadership uh didn't really do very much wrong
00:08:04.960
they're not the ones at fault they shouldn't be held accountable um and i think that that has played a
00:08:10.000
big role in why the hearing that we had with uh million mckenzie um was so ineffective and it's played a
00:08:18.000
big role in why we've refused to to bring in the uh other military witnesses that we need to and why we
00:08:24.720
have uh failed to ask uh the pentagon and centcom the tough questions that they need to be asked
00:08:31.200
and from your perspective just having worked on this this one committee of course under the auspices
00:08:38.000
of chairman mike mccall who leads the house foreign affairs committee i mean that's no insignificant
00:08:42.720
position in terms of the the other committees that we've seen the investigations kind of extrapolating
00:08:49.120
what you identified to be the major problem do you think that it's a problem of leadership or do you
00:08:54.880
think it is a problem of who is you know staffing these investigations is it a mix of both what is the
00:09:00.560
positive lesson that we can take from this with the you know few remaining months we have to sort of
00:09:06.080
if it's possible reverse course and turn the ship around yeah well look the the house foreign affairs
00:09:12.880
committee's afghanistan investigation it did uh unearth some interesting information but for the most part it
00:09:22.480
did fail to do what it needed to do the house foreign affairs the fact the house armed services committee
00:09:28.560
uh which has within its remit uh the u.s military uh has done essentially nothing and i i might even
00:09:37.760
say nothing but as close to nothing as you can do related to the withdrawal in afghanistan uh they have
00:09:44.800
refused to uh do their part in any way whatsoever to investigate what went wrong from the military side so
00:09:53.040
they share their side of the blame as well and what i would say just from my experience uh first working
00:10:02.080
as an investigator outside capitol hill and then being brought in to be one in congress is there does
00:10:08.640
seem to be a culture um especially among well with with the chairman that i worked for and perhaps with
00:10:18.160
others um to not rock the boat too much uh to not ask too many tough questions um to go after maybe the
00:10:30.000
people that you know you would like to but then but not to go after the people that you're your friend
00:10:35.840
you're friendly with or friends with and i do think that that is something that really uh harmed the
00:10:41.760
investigation that i was on i know that chairman milley uh chairman mccall uh of the house foreign affairs
00:10:49.520
committee was very friendly for instance with uh with general milley um and i think that uh those uh
00:11:00.160
those friendships and relationships uh in dc um when the chairman of a committee uh wants to be friends with
00:11:09.600
uh with uh with a general um who really uh screwed things up uh i think that that makes uh accountability
00:11:17.280
tough it obviously limits uh what uh the chairman is going to do and that trickles down um to the staff
00:11:26.960
that are working on these committees um that uh goes across to other members just rank and file guys that
00:11:34.640
are on various committees a lot of the time the tone is set by the chairman and if the chairman of
00:11:40.800
a committee uh doesn't want to take action then action doesn't really happen and i would just tell
00:11:48.160
people uh don't let inaction uh don't let them come up with excuses for inaction as the chairman of a
00:11:56.000
committee you have tremendous power you can issue subpoenas you can compel uh the production of
00:12:04.400
documents you can force people to appear in front of you and if they don't tell the truth uh there
00:12:10.320
can be consequences for that so chairman uh the chairman of committees are powerful and uh inaction
00:12:18.320
is really not an excuse especially when you have a congressional majority you have the gavel and you
00:12:24.960
have important issues that you need to be getting answers on and jerry just give me a minute it seems
00:12:30.320
like mccall is more concerned with you know trashing you and trying to rebut your claims in the mainstream
00:12:35.440
media an interesting alliance there just walk us through real quick how he's been pushing back on
00:12:40.320
what you've been saying well i have not spoken with him since uh since i resigned um and since i made my
00:12:49.600
letter public so i have not heard directly from him i've seen the uh comments and uh statements that
00:12:56.720
the house foreign affairs committee on chairman mccall's behalf uh the statements they've given to uh to
00:13:02.800
the press um where there's not really an effort to say that anything that i said was wrong um they can't
00:13:11.680
they really can't because everything that i said was was true um but it's just sort of a repetition of
00:13:18.720
what uh chairman mccall has said in the past that uh he uh according to the the most recent statement
00:13:25.520
from the committee that he pours his heart and soul into uh getting answers for the abbey gate uh families
00:13:34.160
look he he made specific promises to the abbey gate families that he would uh uh stop at nothing to
00:13:41.360
get answers for them there are extremely basic things uh that were not done uh despite months
00:13:49.520
and months and months of my urging basic things that we should have been doing to get those answers
00:13:54.560
so i don't even coming against a break so i've got to let you go but if the audience wants to read your

00:16:15.680
welcome back to the war room like i was saying in the opening of the show you guys know we exist
00:16:27.680
to move and frankly broaden the goalposts that all the lame controlled opposition conservative
00:16:33.040
news outlets like fox news have set really woefully for so many congressional republicans
00:16:38.240
they give mike mccall every other night a round of applause on air for what he's been doing with his
00:16:43.040
investigation which frankly i don't even know if it's better or worse than what trey gowdy did
00:16:47.280
with benghazi but americans are dead and mike mccall is worried about being friends with chairman
00:16:52.640
mark milley that should show you the priorities up there on capitol hill the same man who's in charge
00:16:57.840
of house foreign affairs committee always kind of taking charge on ukraine policy used to chair i
00:17:03.360
think homeland security was pretty high up in that no wonder why our border is wide open because
00:17:08.400
this is the issue right this is frankly it's why i'm hosting this show right now right
00:17:12.320
the regime protects its own it's why they did not call victoria newland it's why they didn't call
00:17:17.280
wendy sherman a host of biden regime apparatchiks they let them stonewall this investigation investigation
00:17:25.040
this stuff makes me so sick so sick that the system will always protect its own mike mccall is a perfect
00:17:32.880
example of that and we need more people like jerry to to step up and stand in the breach and call out
00:17:38.160
what we're seeing not these horrible attempts you guys remember that biden impeachment inquiry
00:17:43.920
he barely had meaningful questions the very own witnesses that they called undermined their own case
00:17:50.320
like we always say the evidence the facts are there but when you put people like mike mccall in charge
00:17:54.480
of running the play you're not going to get good results so i hope jerry dunleavy's crusade in the
00:17:59.680
media i hope mike mccall spends more time actually getting answers for the gold star families and not
00:18:04.640
trashing him in mainstream media outlets so that seems to be a problem with a lot of republicans
00:18:09.200
these days i'm looking at you uh new york times and trump campaign speaking of that you guys know we always
00:18:16.000
focus on the great replacement here in the war room it's not a theory it's not a conspiracy theory
00:18:21.600
it's happening media matters can clip that if they want but there was just a a striking piece in the
00:18:28.320
new york times yesterday um we discussed it very briefly with bob good but i want to bring on theo
00:18:35.680
wold who really was part of the first trump administration's brain trust in terms of
00:18:39.920
immigration policy behind a lot of the the legal work that you guys did to secure our borders which
00:18:45.360
the biden regime has miraculously but i think what we're going to get into now intentionally undone
00:18:51.120
kind of unraveled uh for electoral gains uh right the great replacement theory also applies to your vote
00:18:57.760
the article in the new york times immigrants are becoming u.s citizens at fastest clip in years
00:19:02.720
the government has reduced a backlog of applications that built up during the trump
00:19:06.320
administrations new citizens say they are looking forward to voting in november now war
00:19:12.160
and posse i promise i'll stop talking and won't torture you with any more new york times quotes but
00:19:16.640
this is so in your face saying the quiet part out loud that i just have to read the quote and
00:19:20.800
the other ones your your thoughts kind of walk us through why we're seeing this change
00:19:24.960
the surge in naturalization efficiency isn't just about clearing backlogs it's potentially reshaping
00:19:32.320
the electorate merely months before a pivotal election said xiao wang chief executive of boundless
00:19:39.040
a company that uses government data to analyze immigration trends every citizenship application could
00:19:45.680
be a vote that decides senate seats or even the presidency theo your thoughts
00:19:52.560
yeah i think uh thanks for having me on again natalie but to start here from from i think a digestible
00:19:59.680
thesis for for the posse one thing is very clear naturalization trends have essentially uh plummeted
00:20:07.200
over the last 30 to 40 years and and why well activist liberal judges and a lot of left-wing activists
00:20:14.560
who got elected to congress essentially gave the farm away to non-citizens over the course
00:20:22.400
of decades so most of all the privileges we associate with citizenship are now available to uh permanent
00:20:28.800
residents green card holders what's the one thing that a green card holder can't have that only a
00:20:34.400
citizen can have that's voting so these these numbers that are coming out of uscis and the department of
00:20:41.200
homeland security are are really a testament to how the left is is is targeting this idea of ensuring that
00:20:49.040
non-citizens get their green cards and then they very efficiently make that move from green card to
00:20:54.160
hold status to citizenship so that they can actually participate in federal elections and walk us
00:21:00.800
through some of the policy reversals that the biden regime has engaged in to sort of facilitate what we
00:21:07.360
kind of call legalized fraud here in the war room yeah i mean i think here this is where one of the more
00:21:13.920
interesting points for for your viewers to kind of wrestle with is immigration is where you can see
00:21:19.280
the work of the the deep state or the administrative state most clearly which is if it's a policy or an
00:21:25.440
idea that they oppose they'll drag their feet they'll be reluctant to actually engage in the necessary leg
00:21:32.000
work or the reforms to make it happen and if it's an idea that they like or that they agree with you
00:21:37.280
know in general terms they'll move expeditiously uh to see it prioritized or carried across the finish
00:21:43.120
line so one of the examples that the new york times sites is that under trump and and previous years
00:21:48.640
uh you know the last bush administration naturalization timelines took for processing purposes about 11
00:21:55.040
and a half months and the biden administration has cut that normal processing time down to just three
00:22:01.520
months um and and that's a really good indication that the civil bureaucracy has something that they're
00:22:06.640
they're aiming for here and what's what's the thing they're aiming for they want these non-citizens to get
00:22:11.360
their green cards they want the green cards then processed into citizenship so that they can vote
00:22:16.320
in the 2024 election that's one of the key ingredients in this whole idea so is it unlawful
00:22:21.920
this is the worst part no it's not unlawful it's just you have a appliance captured bureaucracy that's
00:22:27.360
willing to work for one side one objective and not the other political side yeah the uh the administrative
00:22:35.120
state certainly didn't seem to work with similar haste when it came to to building the wall or
00:22:39.920
deferring anything for dreamers um but in terms of counteracting this obviously there's a lot of
00:22:44.880
discussion of you know mass deportations and the feasibility of that but in terms of
00:22:49.520
i think it's fair to say we're at a point where you almost need denaturalizations too is that something
00:22:55.040
that is legally plausible is that something that could be pursued in a second trump administration
00:22:59.520
yeah i mean it it all depends right it depends on on the contours denaturalization works uh on a case
00:23:07.600
by case or individual basis so it just depends on whether or not we will there will be the resources or
00:23:14.400
the focus to go back and review some of these naturalizations to to see if whether or not there
00:23:20.080
there was fraud fraud on the inducement i mean one of the things we worked on um you know so targetedly in
00:23:25.840
in the trump administration was to limit uh marriage fraud i mean there our country has been
00:23:31.120
a replete with instances where people engage uh in falsified relationships in order to obtain green
00:23:37.200
cards or eventually citizenship under false pretenses that was something we really tried to ferret out and
00:23:42.320
end that work like some of the other projects you've mentioned has all essentially been undone by
00:23:47.520
the biden administration so if there are instances where there was fraud fraud in the submission of
00:23:52.320
necessary paperwork or a criminal record that was obscured then yeah there would be a basis for
00:23:58.240
either through civil proceedings or criminal proceedings to denaturalize these individuals but
00:24:02.720
i think this is the part that needs to be most troubling for for your viewers which is most of
00:24:07.760
everything that they're doing right now is totally lawful it's consistent with the laws on the books they
00:24:13.200
they could move to expedite um naturalizations they just choose not to do the the counter under say a trump
00:24:21.600
presidency which is to expedite removals and deportations of criminal aliens so we're seeing
00:24:26.720
the one-way ratchet work here in real time you obviously worked you know very close and we're
00:24:32.720
sorry for that to a lot of these administrative state holdover types who of course obstructed and
00:24:38.080
interfered anytime you guys tried to do anything resembling america first when it came to immigration
00:24:42.640
policy you know we focused yesterday with jeff clark on the show talking about how there's a bunch
00:24:47.840
of activists within the epa already kind of pre-forming these radical groups to object and kind of uh
00:24:54.720
interfere with what would be president trump's second term agenda do you kind of foresee similar
00:25:02.000
i think efforts coming from within dhs and relevant organizations that you know the trump camp needs
00:25:08.080
to be preparing for oh yeah without a doubt without a doubt i mean i i think generally um the challenge
00:25:15.440
that the first trump white house faced was how do you operationalize uh some of the president's
00:25:21.520
instinctual ideas on in immigration policy and and i think it's worth saying i mean like immigration is
00:25:27.280
one of those things that i think lots of americans have different feelings about it's not necessarily
00:25:31.920
bad or or good just in itself but um one thing that we we are learning more and more especially when we
00:25:38.480
look to other countries around the world is immigration without any meaningful integration either
00:25:44.720
immigration of the legal or illegal variety is a direct challenge to the nation and there are lots
00:25:50.800
of people embedded in the department of homeland security who see immigration regardless of integration
00:25:57.120
efforts assimilation efforts as a net good always and changing that attitude uh in a second trump
00:26:03.440
white house or second trump administration is going to be incredibly difficult and in terms of you
00:26:09.760
you know these i guess they're citizens right so they're able to vote but in terms of non-citizens
00:26:14.880
voting which is i think similarly a threat probably on an even larger scale it depends the numbers are
00:26:20.160
always kind of shady they love to play right kind of russian nesting doll with the numbers and not
00:26:24.400
really tell you what the actual figures are unless they're trying to brag to the new york times about how
00:26:28.880
quickly they're replacing americans and the the electorate um but how how does that process actually
00:26:34.800
work how will non-citizens be eligible to vote um ahead of november yeah i mean i i think that's a
00:26:42.640
it's a pretty complicated uh topic unto itself i mean the way it i think the the way to sort of understand
00:26:49.040
it again sort of bite by bite here is is to to really review the way that each state uh handles its own
00:26:58.080
purposes of of registration and then voting and then tabulation in its elections and what i mean by that is
00:27:04.400
lots of states have these sort of oddities that allow for non-citizens to participate
00:27:10.160
even without a non-citizen knowingly trying to register or cast a ballot so for example
00:27:17.200
there are a number of states that have same-day registration without proof or documentation you
00:27:22.000
can just show up and say whoops i i forgot my id and so you're given what's called a provisional ballot
00:27:27.760
but a lot of poll workers don't know that you're supposed to cure a provisional ballot with an affidavit
00:27:33.520
and then a visit to a registrar's office to prove that you have sufficient identification
00:27:38.320
i mean another way that this happens for non-citizens participating in our elections
00:27:42.800
gotta jump to break but i know the audience wants to drill down on this because in order to
00:27:47.200
to combat that problem we have to understand it right we'll be joined after the break theo wold
00:27:52.480

00:28:12.160

00:29:47.520
welcome back to the war room you guys know on this show we've chronicled in great detail and frankly
00:29:52.800
with great pain all of the policy reversals and even kind of uh just organic policies that the biden
00:30:00.800
regime has initiated when it comes to immigration weather reversing the dna test requirements
00:30:06.240
not allowing wire fencing though of course they recently kind of kowtowed to who was it was it ken
00:30:11.920
paxton or actually there's a g uh uh andrew bailey up in missouri who wrote that letter demanding that
00:30:18.320
you know the remainder of the funds for the wall actually be used to imagine that uh build the wall
00:30:23.440
but you sort of see all of these policy positions converging together into frankly i think what is that new
00:30:28.720
york times article right which is the thing itself the issue itself which is that they're not just
00:30:33.920
content with having these people you know living in the shadows and having their green cards they
00:30:37.520
want them to be able to vote and that is the fundamental dividing line and that is why you're
00:30:41.600
seeing these naturalization rates skyrocket theo before we let you go i just want you to sort of
00:30:46.240
wrap up what you were saying about what non-citizen voting actually looks like and more importantly
00:30:52.800
you know who needs to kind of step up to the plate and counteract we had bob good on the show
00:30:58.480
yesterday talking about how you know republicans in the house are going to use that as their kind
00:31:02.960
of bargaining chip when it comes to spending deals but do you think that that's enough
00:31:08.560
yeah i mean i i think the thing that we we should make clear here is the the democrats in the far left
00:31:14.000
have been at this game the game being revising amending and transforming our election laws for 40
00:31:20.720
years i mean motor voter registration i know a lot of people are jazzed about that because governor
00:31:25.040
shapiro in pennsylvania made a big statement about it you know six months ago motor voter registration
00:31:29.920
has been on the books since the early 1990s uh most of the transformative laws were passed you know 10
00:31:36.960
15 years ago all mail ballots no absentee voting or no no fault absentee voting all of these things were
00:31:43.360
done a long time ago republicans are just now waking up to them and and i think for someone like me
00:31:47.840
who's interested in immigration policy what's interesting about these supposed reforms to election laws
00:31:53.920
is they all allow vulnerabilities permeability for non uh citizens foreign nationals to vote in some
00:32:00.800
instances unwittingly but in many instances because they're put up to it by the consortium of far left
00:32:06.320
activists pro-immigration groups to participate in our elections and actually affect the outcome
00:32:10.960
and that quote you led with natalie from the new york times piece which was from you know an activist
00:32:15.920
from a pro-immigrant group is exactly right the goal is to change the outcome of either senate or
00:32:23.120
gubernatorial elections but definitely the presidential contest and no matter how anyone
00:32:27.440
feels about how the campaign is going you know in light of the switch to kamala or the change of the
00:32:33.120
the media embargo on her record what is very clear is this is going to be a close election no matter what
00:32:38.560
and 50 000 votes could be made up of you know a good portion of non-citizens who are participating in
00:32:45.360
our election and changing the outcome in bellwether counties and bellwether states
00:32:48.640
you know you're all over this if people want to follow you stay up to date with your work on this
00:32:53.920
and so much more where can they go to to do that yeah check out the uh the claremont institute's dc
00:32:59.680
office the center for the american way of life and also a real theo wold on x or instagram
00:33:05.920
thank you so much for joining us we'll have you back on soon
00:33:08.560
oran posse we're joined now by congressman tim birchett who's sort of on vacation i was giving
00:33:18.640
him a hard time uh in the break i asked him how's your speaker johnson sanctioned vacation going well
00:33:25.120
uh while rome burns uh no but you've been working you've recently been trying to get answers as to why
00:33:30.560
a good friend on this show uh tulsi gabbard looks like she was placed on you know some semblance of a
00:33:36.320
no-fly list um by by dhs people like stalking her through airports can you kind of walk us through
00:33:42.960
that story and the action that you're taking to rectify it yeah apparently tulsi was um and i
00:33:49.360
hadn't actually talked to tulsi in i don't know months maybe a year and then she after she saw what
00:33:54.560
i did she texted me the other night was very kind about it but apparently she's going through airports
00:34:01.200
now and she's on what's called a quiet skies watch list and apparently they've had uh agents have
00:34:08.000
followed her of different agencies and um and you know it's not just one you know as we like say rogue
00:34:14.880
agency or something and to me that's that is a very chilling effect why are they doing this and i
00:34:20.400
that's why i want to know if they got to put me in a skiff to tell me why um they're following her and
00:34:25.520
doing this thing but if they're doing if they're doing that to her they're doing it to others and it's a
00:34:30.000
complete overreach again these are unelected bureaucrats that are given the green light by
00:34:35.360
somebody and we've seen it time and time again the failures i mean from the secret service to
00:34:40.560
president trump almost getting shot um to um our members of our justice department are labeling moms
00:34:48.800
that go to school board meetings as domestic terrorists the same for catholics who had the audacity
00:34:54.560
to protest um abortion clinics legally within their first amendment right again terrorist watch list
00:35:01.200
and so we've got a i think we we need to bring these people in we need to rein them in and find out
00:35:06.160
what the heck is going on because this is um it's unconstitutional it's illegal and it's un-american
00:35:11.760
frankly seems like the failures always uh seem to go one way same with i guess uh late night ballot
00:35:19.760
drops coming in from from swing states um but congressman in terms of the committees and
00:35:25.120
investigations we had an individual on earlier in the show who was kind of a whistleblower he resigned
00:35:30.080
in protest from house foreign affairs committee's investigation um into afghanistan saying that you
00:35:35.760
know chairman mccall just isn't calling in the right witnesses there's just not an appetite to get
00:35:40.480
actual accountability on on a litany of issues whether it's you know the assassination attempt
00:35:46.000
uh the biden family you know crime enterprise the racket that is is the biden crime family where do
00:35:52.720
we stand on those investigations right now given that you know everyone is sort of dispersed across
00:35:57.280
the country well we're not doing anything obviously uh that's why the secret service when you know they
00:36:05.040
they they obviously were made a almost fatal mistake with president trump you know i said let's let's
00:36:12.880
forget the you know forget the dadgum convention let's go in monday morning let's start subpoenaing
00:36:17.440
these people let's get them in and everybody's like no we got to get notice we got this we got that
00:36:22.560
and you know and now it's off the front page and now it's not even news and nobody cares and uh i think
00:36:29.680
they'll run it up against these elections and then they'll they'll they'll play it out hopefully that
00:36:34.720
hopefully that trump will lose and kamala harris will win and then they they know they won't have to
00:36:40.720
come then because the democrats sure as hell won't bring them in so we've got a i think we need to
00:36:46.320
push it we need to full court press this whole thing it is it's ridiculous it's out of control
00:36:52.160
and you know here we are at the will of these staffers i've i've said this time and time again
00:36:57.520
you know i have a bill dealing with um uh the the chinese developing a genome um that for americans
00:37:05.760
through these dna services you know you send your dna in and you get you find out that you're you
00:37:12.400
know your your history your family's history what have you and i can't even get a hearing on that
00:37:18.160
i couldn't get it under the democrats i can't get into the republicans you've got staffers you know
00:37:23.200
we talk about the k street lobbyists but they've infected that whole capital and as i've stated many
00:37:28.560
times it's not a you know it's not a swamp a swamp is something cool that god created this is a sewer
00:37:36.160
it is man-made and it stinks and we have got to that's why it's so important that these folks realize
00:37:42.800
what the heck is going on in this country and get to the polls our numbers are ridiculously low you know
00:37:49.280
in knoxville tennessee my hometown we have a a person that apparently identifies as a marxist they're
00:37:55.680
friendly but they're a marxist in knoxville tennessee you know and we just continue down this
00:38:00.960
path we have preachers that won't preach the gospel nobody's holding anybody accountable
00:38:05.120
people are afraid to stand up in church at their work at the you know at the water cooler at schools
00:38:12.000
at public squares at county commission at city councils in the united states congress in the united
00:38:17.520
states senate they're afraid to stand up and we better wake up because we're going to lose it all
00:38:22.800
this one is for all the marbles this is not some conspiracy theorist kind of thing i think they're
00:38:28.720
showing exactly what they're doing they're pushing the envelope as far as they can get it because they
00:38:33.280
know if trump wins their little charades over but if trump loses we lose everything all these things
00:38:40.640
will be more or less codified codified as they say it will be in the law they'll be allowing people
00:38:47.360
over our border more so than they are now they will be voting they will get your benefits these veterans
00:38:54.240
will be shunned and pushed out of things that they're rightfully intended to get and so we better
00:39:00.800
wake up and this deal with tulsi is the very tip of the iceberg i can't imagine who else is on that list
00:39:07.120
but it my mind doesn't have to wander very far to figure it out to think that an american citizen is
00:39:12.560
being spied on by an american agency for little or no proof this is um this is just this is very
00:39:19.920
reckless behavior by by this administration which is really a rudderless ship nobody's running this
00:39:26.560
ship it's a bunch of obama leftover bureaucrats hard leftist marxist that are trying to destroy this
00:39:34.000
country i won't go overkill on the uh city planning metaphors but i do think you are very apt to say
00:39:41.040
that it is a a sewer not a swamp because it is man-made and i think a lot of these you know
00:39:46.320
deadlines or government shutdown debates that you guys find yourselves in are sort of a a function of
00:39:52.640
the system right the lobbyists love when you're kind of pressed up against the wall in the 11th
00:39:56.480
hour and you don't pass your single subject spending spending bills so obviously we're sort
00:40:00.720
of barreling towards that already what is it october 1st can you kind of walk us through where you
00:40:05.920
stand we have the congressman put on on talking stop gap funding measures all that what what do
00:40:11.520
you kind of see as the path ahead well that's exactly you couldn't have laid it out any better
00:40:16.480
that's exactly what the bureaucrats and the lobbyists want because it continues the poor spending
00:40:21.520
policies that we've had in the past and you got to realize some of these policies and and programs that
00:40:26.880
were were funding no longer even exist so that money just is unaccounted for it goes into a slush fund
00:40:33.760
it's just like the pentagon um they can't account for a half a trillion dollars in assets i mean what
00:40:39.520
is that a battleship i mean that that's that's pathetic and you multiply it over all over government
00:40:45.600
and you just see it time and time again they want a continuation of cr continued resolution or whatever
00:40:51.520
you want to call it an omnibus i want single spending bills let's stay there all night let's make
00:40:56.960
all these old fat cats in washington justify their terrible spending programs and i'll guarantee you
00:41:03.440
they can't do it and people won't vote for it and that's why they want it they were running this
00:41:07.840
country into the ground 35 trillion in debt another 100 days um we had another trillion dollars it's not
00:41:14.800
real sexy and they don't want to talk about it that's exactly where we're at as a country
00:41:21.440
and congressman in terms of you know the allies that you see kind of forming up or you know taking
00:41:27.280
kind of besides you at least on this particular financial fiscal fight you know how many do you
00:41:33.200
think are in line with you how many do you think are are willing to just sort of you know use status quo
00:41:39.120
tactics yeah i think we probably got 20 25 people that'll hold line and then you've got all the democrats
00:41:47.680
against us and then you have some middle-of-the-road moderate republicans and that's part of the problem with
00:41:52.960
their primaries being over you know it's them or some far left democrat and so you know we're kind
00:42:02.320
of in a in a spot and that's timing but i think that is if if we can get trump in there i think that is
00:42:09.120
when people start paying attention because he's going to start cutting these huge huge departments
00:42:14.880
that you know for instance the department of education when i say this everybody says burchett
00:42:20.240
wants to cut education no i just want to cut the department of education send all that money to
00:42:24.960
the states you show me one bureaucrat in washington and dc that's taught a kid how to read in granger
00:42:31.280
tennessee granger county and i'll eat your hat you know it just doesn't happen and they're worse than
00:42:37.840
the mob they take their cut right off the not off the top but off the top to the middle and and i've
00:42:45.040
heard people say we need to cut about 75 percent of the bureaucrats in washington well that's a start
00:42:49.920
that is actually a start and it's it goes to the bureau against the brakes i've got to let you go
00:42:56.240
but if people want to follow you one of one of the few good ones who's still working even while
00:43:01.280
y'all are on vacation where can people go to do that at tim burchett and i'm actually down here for
00:43:07.600
a uh an event for my buddy matt gates and make sure we re-elect him in his primary because the sewer is
00:43:13.440
completely after him they do not like the stance he takes on anything and they need to be ashamed
00:43:19.760
of themselves and they need to be called into account two of the good ones though i would argue
00:43:25.280
it's a it's a low bar among your colleagues but nonetheless you guys stand and rise above we love
00:43:30.880
you here in the courtroom or impossible we will be back after this short break

got to go to war room dot film to get watch rent whatever you want to do with government
00:45:53.120
gangsters the uh the film of the season i would humbly say and i'm not paid to say that while you're
00:45:58.320
out you can also go to patriot mobile dot com slash bannon we're all about supporting companies that don't
00:46:04.000
hate you for watching this show so patriot mobile i would humbly say it's one of those companies you
00:46:08.880
should check out patriot mobile dot com slash bannon it's a nice deal yet some percent off a free phone
00:46:14.320
something like that go check out the website i think we just have to say i mean what a show we've
00:46:19.120
already had today i think springboarding off of the week we had last week going through how they are
00:46:23.520
trying to steal not just trying but i would argue successfully stealing this election but i think there's so
00:46:30.000
much discussion right remember back in 2016 not normalizing president trump and while they always
00:46:35.360
like to kind of focus that rhetoric on trump's tweets and his actions not necessarily the policy that
00:46:41.360
he's put forth but they don't want to normalize republicans like president trump in other words
00:46:46.560
republicans like i think stephen k bannon who are willing to go after the system and say the quiet
00:46:52.240
part out loud which is deconstructing the administrative state the administrative state that will do nothing
00:46:58.000
protect its own in the case of michael mccall worry more about what his friend mark milley who has
00:47:02.880
openly admitted to having back channel dialogues with the chinese communist party to subvert and
00:47:08.080
obstruct the elected desires of president donald j trump that is the administrative state in action
00:47:15.840
right the colleagues the people who refuse to i mean how pathetic is that of the americans who died
00:47:21.760
in afghanistan a place that frankly we spilled enough blood and treasure in to begin with and that's
00:47:26.160
frankly the real reason they don't want to get to the bottom of that investigation blows up the whole
00:47:29.760
thing on the scam that is the racket that is the endless forever wars going on in this country but
00:47:36.400
they don't have the ability to give gold star families the truth the closure they're more mike
00:47:42.240
mccall is more worried about what mark milley victoria newland and chinese communist party asset
00:47:47.920
wendy sherman from the biden state department think about him and by the way these are the very same
00:47:53.440
republicans who are supposed to be protecting your vote ahead of this next election protecting this
00:47:58.640
country protecting the sovereignty of the united states of america they're supposed to be laying
00:48:03.120
down the law on the southern border like they laid down the law on the debt ceiling back what was it about
00:48:08.880
a year ago when they basically handed away even frankly more free votes to the democratic party
00:48:14.720
to joe biden now kamala harris sure they're getting ready to do that again and you guys are already
00:48:19.840
seeing how the ngos are lining up alongside our very own government to ensure it's not even that
00:48:25.360
illegals can vote they want to make the illegal citizens so they can vote in addition to non-citizens
00:48:29.680
voting talk about compounding factors that's how much they think of you in this country they care
00:48:35.600
more about non-citizens being able to vote than actual americans and their families who have spilled
00:48:41.280
their blood given their lives for this country and countries that have frankly no meaningful
00:48:49.200
really existence to the united states looking at the middle east there they will do more for
00:48:54.880
non-citizens give them citizenship one of the most meaningful things in history to the greatest
00:49:00.800
country in the united in the world the united states of america then they will get up and do anything
00:49:06.640
for gold star families that right there that is the signal not noise that is the system
00:49:11.760
that we are up against oh and meanwhile they're they'll uh censorship they'll censor you the whole
00:49:17.040
time while you're at it outsourcing their lovely efforts to subvert the first amendment to a bunch
00:49:21.600
of ngos backed by a bunch of you know backwards people who want to teach your teach your kids subversive
00:49:27.760
and degenerate gender ideology in classrooms and if you dare to speak out about against it speak out
00:49:32.960
against it you're the weird one tim waltz who's too busy for decades doing business deals with the chinese
00:49:39.360
communist party i would say uh overshadowed only by hunter biden but that is the system
00:49:45.200
that we are up against the system that protects its own the system that is the reason why i'm sitting
00:49:49.200
here and stephen k bannon isn't because he dared to speak out against it just like president trump has
00:49:55.200
