By successfully exploiting a key division among Americans, those who are for the system and those who are against it, broadly put.
00:00:10.160
President-elect managed to build a narrow majority with what you might call an anti-system coalition.
00:00:15.560
People who are angry at our government, resentful of our institutions because they feel they have been failed by them.
00:00:21.260
And lots of people feel that for very good reason.
00:00:24.120
And now he has chosen perhaps the most high-profile figure in the anti-system world for a top job in his cabinet.
00:00:32.200
Of course, I'm talking about Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
00:00:34.520
That's Trump's new pick for Secretary of Department of Health and Human Services.
00:00:40.120
Yeah, going back to your first question, it's not just that these people are not qualified enough.
00:00:45.500
It's not just that they're totally unqualified.
00:00:49.940
They're qualified to do the opposite of the thing that they're supposed to do.
00:00:55.020
Tulsi Gabbard is talking in a moment when Russian forces are approaching the Ukrainian capital, when Russian assassination squads are attempting to kill the Ukrainian head of state.
00:01:05.840
And she's advising people that all we have to do is summon up a magic word and in effect surrender all of Ukraine to Russia.
00:01:18.580
It's what it's doing is trying to prepare the way for more Ukrainian suffering.
00:01:23.400
It's what it is, is saying he who invades is right.
00:01:26.380
Well, first, we have to confront something that's really important, because we always talk about this with the kind of the assumption that if we build it, they will come.
00:01:36.700
That if only there were local newspapers again, if only the local newscasts were on.
00:01:41.360
What we're missing here is that a large chunk of the fault here just relies with the American public.
00:01:53.160
We take in, you know, petabytes of information, you know, over the course of weeks and months that we simply can't process.
00:02:00.980
Our tolerance for boredom, for nuance, for detail is almost zero.
00:02:07.000
And this is what I wrote about in The Death of Expertise, that people, they don't really want to read news stories.
00:02:15.100
You know, there was a I was on a panel once with some with Dan Balz from The Washington Post.
00:02:18.940
And someone said, you should write more explainers and very, you know, calmly.
00:02:25.620
And I think we have to deal with the fact that there is that there is a kind of a resistance to people ever encountering news or being told about anything that they think is unpleasant or uninteresting or contradicts things that they already believe.
00:02:39.640
And having said that, you know, passionately, I'm not sure what to do about it.
00:02:45.840
There are, you know, through the Internet, there are other reputable sources of news.
00:02:54.700
But I don't know what to do about the fact that we've become a society that is so easily distracted and bored that that asking people to pay attention to, you know, to who's going to be the secretary of defense.
00:03:13.000
They would have been able to answer that question in 1969 or 1970.
00:03:18.440
Today, people just don't seem to care that much about it.
00:03:21.680
And I'm not sure how to make them care until something disastrous happened on us.
00:03:29.640
You are truly alarmed at what you've been seeing in the last week and a half.
00:03:39.580
These appointments are not just poor choices in a traditional sense.
00:03:44.660
These appointments, each of them individually is historically bad.
00:03:49.380
But taken together, these are not people who are going to be bad at their jobs in some sort of normal sense.
00:03:56.120
Taken together, these appointments suggest an attempt to actually make the American government dysfunctional, to make it fall apart, to pervert it, to have it do things that it's not supposed to do until it's not capable of doing anything at all.
00:04:10.600
So, of course, one has to be attending to this.
00:04:14.980
And it seems like he's assembling a team to do just that.
00:04:19.040
And this time, because he's now far more familiar with the levers of power in government, it seems like he has a much greater chance of succeeding than he did the first time around.
00:04:28.100
Yeah, I think that's what's really striking here.
00:04:31.400
First of all, he did tell us all this in advance.
00:04:36.020
He literally said before the election that he wanted him to go wild on America's health bureaucracy.
00:04:44.540
So, again, you know, the shock is that on some level so many people are shocked.
00:04:48.680
I do think, Jonathan, you and I have experienced this before, the distraction of the carnival, the theatrics.
00:04:58.940
He's probably relishing all the attention to the controversies he's already generated in just one week.
00:05:05.080
But I think that can be a distraction from what the underlying goals are here.
00:05:09.980
Steve Bannon, you know, was practically gleeful in talking about the Gates pick the other day.
00:05:15.540
But he said something I think is really important.
00:05:17.560
And he said, you know, he's going to be Donald Trump has picked a blowtorch for the Justice Department.
00:05:23.840
And you could say that almost all of these picks in their own ways are potential blowtorches for the departments that they have been chosen to lead.
00:05:32.940
And I think to the extent there's an ideology, that's the ideology, an ideology of burn it down, blow it up, you know, reinvent it.
00:05:42.020
And that plus personal loyalty to Trump himself, a big lesson he took away from his first term in office.
00:06:09.980
I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that.
00:06:13.720
And where do people like that go to share the big line?
00:06:18.240
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:06:24.120
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:06:27.880
If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:06:43.720
It's Saturday, 16 November in the year of our Lord, 2024.
00:06:46.940
We're back on watch here in the War Room in the Imperial Capitol.
00:06:51.240
There you had a combination of Chris Hayes of MSNBC, Tom Nichols, formerly of the Naval War College.
00:07:01.460
You had, I think, Tim Snyder, the historian from Yale.
00:07:04.860
Susan Glasser, who is, I believe, at the New Yorker.
00:07:08.420
And she's the wife of Peter Baker, the lead White House correspondent for the New York Times.
00:07:19.620
I had an opportunity to talk to a couple of groups yesterday.
00:07:23.140
One in Mar-a-Lago and one back here in the Imperial Capitol.
00:07:29.640
Donald Trump took a bullet to the head and four months later won a landslide victory.
00:07:37.660
That the crowd of Chris Hayes, and I agree with Chris Hayes.
00:07:42.280
It's system versus anti-system when you break it down to something.
00:07:45.420
So it's elite globalists, the system, versus populist nationalists, the anti-system.
00:07:51.160
And Chris Hayes, you know, maybe he's the guy at MSNBC that makes it through.
00:08:01.040
And Chris Hayes says, hey, look, the system's failed a lot of people.
00:08:03.900
So you have a lot of people out there that are angry and want to come in in a coalition to the anti-system forces.
00:08:15.780
Donald Trump, once again, he took a bullet to the head.
00:08:20.540
Not simply survived and in the moment stood up like the gladiator he is.
00:08:27.020
He then put a coalition together and won a landslide.
00:08:36.900
And let's throw in Nevada, the new battleground, another battleground state that we didn't win in 16.
00:08:47.280
Has the courts going to add to the courts because Elizabeth Warren is not going to get her judges through.
00:08:51.880
So there are 47 slots there for the courts, folks.
00:09:05.680
He took a bullet to the head and then won a landslide four months later.
00:09:12.840
He gets to choose the personnel in the government that he wants.
00:09:26.620
They put the forces that the forces that defend the system, the established order, made that order in that system and what they call democracy at the centerpiece of their campaign.
00:09:46.500
Abortion was up there, but their main drive was that these people are anti-democratic.
00:10:07.820
From the time he got to Mar-a-Lago in 2021 on the afternoon of January 20th, every day.
00:10:14.540
And they had the system roll him up legally and financially.
00:10:19.660
They cut off all his bank lines, all his credit cards.
00:10:21.800
They othered him and then indicted him in state courts in Georgia, in city courts in Manhattan, in federal courts in Florida, in New York and Washington, D.C.
00:10:37.380
And they rigged a trial like the Moscow show trials in 1935 and found him guilty of 34 felonies.
00:10:43.620
And they made this, this was the centerpiece of their campaign.
00:10:57.580
This is very similar, if you've seen the movie Lincoln, to the incredibly powerful scene over the Emancipation Proclamation.
00:11:07.000
He sits there and goes, look, it's an executive order.
00:11:10.920
As you know, executive orders are like the travel ban or like getting out of the Paris Accord or all the things President Trump did on the border that Biden reversed on his first afternoon.
00:11:23.000
He got rid of all of Trump's executive orders and flipped and put 80 of his.
00:11:26.500
And this is why we have 15 million illegal alien invaders in the country.
00:11:31.700
Lincoln told his cabinet, hey, at the time, my attorney general Bates thought it was a little dicey.
00:11:37.660
You know, we had to kind of, you know, juggle some stuff.
00:11:42.740
It's the reason I could only free the slaves in areas under rebellion.
00:11:47.680
But I gave the American people two years, two years, two years to weigh and measure it, to turn it over in their mind that the war wasn't simply about the union, but the war was about ending human bondage and chattel slavery.
00:12:07.020
That that was the higher calling of this war, and I gave them two years to think about the people.
00:12:14.140
I literally went to the people and gave them two years to think about it, and they rendered their verdict in 1864 in November in an overwhelming victory of Lincoln versus McClellan, his general, backed by the army that voted.
00:12:35.380
Trump and his candidacy came back, and they made democracy the centerpiece of this.
00:12:43.160
You made the system and the entire system, Tom Nichols and Susan Glassner, you made it the centerpiece of your campaign.
00:12:52.480
I mean, regardless if it's Biden or Harris, this is why she said, I wouldn't change anything, because you're systems players.
00:13:11.340
The American people turned it over in their mind and molded over.
00:13:23.540
And in their great wisdom, the American people rendered a verdict.
00:13:31.300
And that verdict was on 5 November in the year of our Lord, 2024.
00:13:36.200
That verdict, we support the gladiator that leads the anti-system forces.
00:13:54.640
That individual, that leader, that president of the United States, that chief executive of the U.S. government,
00:14:04.100
the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, and yes, the chief magistrate of our country, Donald J. Trump,
00:14:10.340
gets to choose the individuals that will be in his government.
00:14:15.620
The Constitution lays out that the Senate has advice and consent.
00:14:20.220
We're all open for advice, but we want their consent.
00:14:32.000
If you want to further this revolution of the anti-system forces,
00:14:45.360
Johnny Conn will take us out with American Heart.
00:14:47.000
Do you ever think, how can I work this hard and still be in debt?
00:15:05.040
The piles of overdue bills, the threatening phone calls, and never having money to do anything.
00:15:15.380
But they've developed aggressive new strategies to end your debt permanently.
00:15:20.860
Done with debt stands between you and harassing bill collectors.
00:15:24.300
They tirelessly negotiate with your creditors to lower or even forgive what you owe.
00:15:30.000
And they do it all without bankruptcy or new additional loans.
00:15:42.900
Bottom line, done with debt has unique strategies to get you out of debt faster
00:15:51.440
But you need to hurry because some debt solutions are time sensitive.
00:15:58.520
Talk with one of their debt relief strategists for free.
00:16:03.260
Go to donewithdebt.com and talk to one of their debt relief strategists for free.
00:16:18.520
By successfully exploiting a key division among Americans,
00:16:22.900
those who are for the system and those who are against it, broadly put.
00:16:28.680
President-elect managed to build a narrow majority with what you might call an anti-system coalition.
00:16:34.060
People who are angry at our government, resentful of our institutions,
00:16:37.700
because they feel they have been failed by them.
00:16:39.760
And lots of people feel that for very good reason.
00:16:42.640
And now he has chosen perhaps the most high-profile figure in the anti-system world
00:16:50.720
Of course, I'm talking about Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
00:16:53.020
That's Trump's new pick for Secretary of Department of Health and Human Services.
00:16:58.060
Gates ought to have this job because he understands criminality.
00:17:01.020
And therefore, you ought to put him in charge of the Justice Department.
00:17:06.400
What's missing from this, it's not just a question of competence and justice.
00:17:11.800
The U.S. government, like it or not, has an extraordinary influence and power.
00:17:19.880
Tens of millions of people work for government at one level or another.
00:17:26.860
These are not just appointments meant to troll.
00:17:29.140
These are appointments meant to affect our lives on a daily basis.
00:17:32.480
And I'm just struck by the lack of seriousness.
00:17:35.160
Richard, I don't think you understand the nature of the project.
00:17:37.640
The nature of the project is to destroy the government.
00:17:39.300
It's not like all of the framework that we all have, which is, you know, these are very
00:17:43.980
important agencies and they do a very important work and you need to make them better.
00:17:48.300
You know, it was a week into the Trump administration in 2017 when Steve Bannon said the thing about
00:17:52.780
our goal is the deconstruction of the administrative state.
00:17:56.980
This is about tearing the government to pieces.
00:18:04.380
Remember, he said it's in every part of your life.
00:18:14.480
It was never intended to be in every part of your life.
00:18:21.040
The framers in the in the in the revolutionary generation.
00:18:28.600
It was always meant to be a limited government.
00:18:42.520
You had little Delaware coupled with, you know, Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania and
00:18:53.100
Power players who had all different thoughts about how things.
00:18:57.640
Massachusetts, you know, it's like the English Civil War.
00:19:00.460
They're the Puritans in Virginia, the Cavaliers.
00:19:03.420
Oh, you know, University of Virginia is named the Cavaliers, right?
00:19:10.560
But the entire deal was a limited government and a focus on liberty and freedom and that
00:19:17.800
individual initiative like, I don't know, carving out a great nation from a vast wilderness.
00:19:28.300
Oh, and we don't want to be part of an oligarchy or an aristocracy or some worthless bunch of royals
00:19:35.500
and elites in London calling the deal and corrupting commons.
00:19:42.460
And as a side note, we don't want monopolistic power where the same corrupt people can just give a charter to something like the British East India Company that controls everything.
00:19:57.960
That's back to every patriot grave to the founding of this republic.
00:20:07.140
The fact that it's in every aspect of your life is exactly the problem.
00:20:28.680
And he gets to choose who is in his government.
00:20:40.280
It's march or die, and all of them get confirmed.
00:20:45.600
If we have to have a showdown now with the Senate, let's have it now.
00:20:57.400
Not that I would make a mafia reference here, but all the lessons in the world are from the godfather in the business world.
00:21:08.740
You have, and I'll throw Kristi Noem in, you have five horsemen, the five horsemen of the deep state apocalypse.
00:21:32.560
Their commonality is they are anti-system players.
00:21:41.960
The system has to be taken and rebuilt and rejuvenated.
00:21:55.060
And the government's not outside of capitalism.
00:22:06.100
And Chris Hayes, you are now in the unfortunate, this is Wagner the other night.
00:22:13.060
Alex Wagner and Chris Hayes, finally, they've understood for a long time.
00:22:19.080
But finally, Alex Wagner comes forward, talking about the Vanity Fair piece about the war room.
00:22:24.480
And remember, you have, it was at Snyder and Nichols, they're sitting there.
00:22:49.200
Because they're ready to work and they want to work because they understand they're saving their country.
00:22:53.440
Your people want entertainment, your people, because you never give them the facts.
00:23:02.960
They say, hey, I might as well go, you know, get on FanDuel and let's bet on these.
00:23:12.980
Or would it be the costumes that come out for the, you know, the 50th award show that nobody cares about?
00:23:30.080
The African-American men and the Hispanic men in Danbury prison, that's what they're yearning for is a shot.
00:23:37.520
You know what the working class, you know what they're yearning for?
00:23:50.660
If you change it and make the American America first and American citizens first, if you flip it on its head instead of they're the last and everything gets dumped on them, the taxes and the regulations and the crappy cities.
00:24:05.940
Oh, and your kids got to go over to the Hindu Kush and watch patrol and they got to go defend the monarchs in Saudi Arabia.
00:24:17.860
Let's get a brigade of them up in Romania on the border of Ukraine.
00:24:20.980
Let's get those kids from Indiana and from Chicago and from the Rio Grande Valley and from Los Angeles.
00:24:26.920
Let's get them on the border of Ukraine and Romania.
00:24:30.760
Ready to defend that border and not the border down the Rio Grande.
00:24:34.960
And that's why the folks in the Rio Grande voted for Trump.
00:24:40.800
The system, Chris Hayes, not only doesn't work, it destroys.
00:24:50.980
In your campaign, what's to destroy Donald Trump?
00:24:56.140
Because you thought if we can destroy Trump, one, we destroy him.
00:25:05.800
Number two, we will send the greatest message in the world that if you stand up to the system,
00:25:12.080
even if you've been president of the United States and commander in chief of the armed forces
00:25:18.440
and the chief magistrate of the American system and someone worth $7 billion and a global media figure,
00:25:30.560
even if you've been all that, which in modernity is all powerful,
00:25:36.720
we can determine and the system will destroy you.
00:25:40.660
And so if we can destroy you, who's going to stand up to that?
00:25:48.440
Your mistake is you misjudge his moral courage because you don't think he has any
00:26:00.060
in his physical courage, his moral courage to understand like Cincinnati's.
00:26:08.640
He will come back to save this republic as a leader.
00:26:12.220
Knowing consciously, conscious intention, not sleepwalking, conscious intention of my line
00:26:32.840
They're going to come at me and they're going to try to put me in prison,
00:26:35.740
imprison me for the rest of my life because I'm 78 years old.
00:26:39.580
In physical courage, when they tried to assassinate him, Robert Kagan,
00:26:47.700
that you, you, you asked for and begged for in the Washington Post
00:26:58.720
he stood up in the moment, in the defining moment of his presidency,
00:27:09.340
He stood up with blood on him and gave, he says, let's go fight, fight, fight.
00:27:16.240
That will echo down in the history of this country, age upon age of what courage is.
00:27:29.060
That's what they voted for, a leader, a gladiator, someone that a man can respect.
00:27:53.920
The blunt force instrument that is Donald John Trump.
00:28:15.960
I want to warn you of a huge change that could be coming to our money and our bank accounts.
00:28:23.720
First, think back to 9-11, shortly after the government pushed through the Patriot Act.
00:28:27.740
This gave the government power to spy on innocent Americans by monitoring our phone and email
00:28:36.600
Now, Jim Rickards, editor of the independent financial newsletter Strategic Intelligence
00:28:41.060
and New York Times bestselling author, is warning about a coming event
00:28:45.360
that could elevate this governmental surveillance to a terrifying new level.
00:28:49.820
In fact, some of the guests I've had on The War Room believe that the government
00:28:53.400
will soon expand their powers to track our every move.
00:28:57.200
If we say the wrong things on social media, donate to the wrong causes, buy firearms, or
00:29:02.940
even vote MAGA, the government may be able to shut us out of our bank accounts.
00:29:08.240
I can't say for sure if this will happen, but it's an interesting and dire warning.
00:29:13.760
Fortunately, Jim Rickards, an American patriot and friend of mine, has made it his mission to
00:29:18.060
educate us on what he believes is coming and how to protect yourself from the possibility
00:29:26.080
Watch Jim's warning video now, before it's censored like I've been in the past.
00:29:33.860
That's RickardsWarRoom.com now to see the video.
00:29:40.800
Okay, well, we're going to get a couple of clips in.
00:29:50.380
Also, I want to make sure, I haven't put this up yet.
00:29:58.240
We're going to do a little live producing here.
00:30:07.880
She's so excited when we have managerial reviews on weekends.
00:30:14.200
I hope, I know you didn't have time to tell the story, but when we had the press conference
00:30:21.240
Yeah, I meant to bring that up to them last night that he claimed to be part of Tim Pool's team.
00:30:26.600
That's not the, that's not the, the buried lead is your, your cousin who is kind of used
00:30:36.600
So I have security and they go, there's a hundred reporters out there and they go, hey,
00:30:42.080
there's one guy out there we think is a plant or think is a bad guy.
00:30:44.840
And my security goes, we're not going to let you go out until that.
00:30:47.420
So my nephew goes out who used to be my body man is fantastic.
00:30:51.840
He goes out, he comes back in and says, no, it's all cool.
00:30:57.100
So I go out, I take, I take Tim Miller's question, Tim, Tim Miller of MSNBC and people got to
00:31:07.440
We, I first started this journey back with Andrew in, I guess, oh nine.
00:31:17.420
When I met first man, Andrew, um, Tim Miller, then a couple of years later, I think became
00:31:22.500
spokesman for the RNC, Tim Miller, the vicious one on MSNBC.
00:31:33.660
The second one I'm asking some woman, I don't know, from associate press and the guy stands
00:31:40.440
And of course he's a, he's a, you know, he's, he's there to disrupt.
00:31:44.460
Although at first I thought he had a three 57 with him.
00:31:48.160
So I thought it was the end of days, but so he's escorted out.
00:31:52.340
And then afterwards I sit there and go, uh, with my nephew, I go, yo dude, how did we
00:32:00.460
miss a guy in a red suit with a fake beard and a bandana?
00:32:03.160
I mean, he looked like a, it literally, when the guy stood up, plus he's like six foot
00:32:06.980
three, he looks like a clown, but he looks like a dangerous clown.
00:32:13.620
And he says, oh, I went out and, uh, I went out and talked to him directly.
00:32:20.320
How'd you miss this guy's a provocateur and not a journalist?
00:32:23.860
He goes, oh, he told me it was with a, he was a correspondent for Tim Pool.
00:32:45.660
No, it was just, well, it was some of Tim Pool's team and then myself.
00:32:55.260
I mean, there were four of us sitting there talking.
00:33:00.020
All, all people that take part into Tim Pool's organization.
00:33:02.580
We gotta get, we gotta get, we gotta get, you and Grace ought to do it together one time.
00:33:08.120
It was a previous booker at Tim Pool that didn't like that idea.
00:33:11.760
Yeah, they've restructured, they've restructured that.
00:33:15.260
But some of the stuff that we discussed last night, and you've talked about this morning,
00:33:19.640
you know, about the left melting down over President Trump's cabinet picks.
00:33:26.140
But like you said, and I think that you looked at my Twitter this morning when you said that
00:33:30.480
Purge comment, but he's, oh, yo, yo, you guys, you're accusing me of lifting.
00:33:46.380
So I'm just gonna go with that, like father, like daughter.
00:33:49.440
You gotta understand, I'm not looking for a co-star, okay?
00:33:57.160
But like I was saying last night, that these picks are going to purge the rot that is in
00:34:06.620
And the left is melting down because the jig is up.
00:34:14.580
And you can't go along to get along anymore here in D.C.
00:34:17.840
And that's why they are so upset is because they know that it's coming to an end.
00:34:25.180
So the audience, the live chat saying, hey, Steve, can you shut up and let Mo talk?
00:34:29.440
I guess they're looking, I guess they are looking for a co-star.
00:34:35.420
No, let's put up, do we have the Financial Times of London?
00:34:40.320
My Financial Times of London hard copy, I took with me down to Palm Beach and it's somewhere,
00:34:54.040
The left is melting down, but they have no power right now.
00:35:02.100
We control the House, the Senate, small majorities.
00:35:09.460
And if I can reiterate this just one more time.
00:35:14.060
If it was not for Trump, you wouldn't have held the House.
00:35:19.480
If it was not for Trump, you wouldn't have taken a majority of the Senate.
00:35:32.760
Because here in the Imperial Capitol, when you say system anti-system, the established order
00:35:41.580
and the Reiner Republicans, they are all in it together.
00:35:47.600
They're crying great saltiers down here at the Capitol Grill and all the places where
00:35:57.720
The kind of Thune is their salvation for the system.
00:36:00.200
I think, and President Trump gave a huge shout-out to Mike Johnson.
00:36:08.340
To our beloved president, I disagree with this.
00:36:12.780
Because he ain't ever going to be there on anything that's ever tough.
00:36:17.500
But the only thing holding us back ourselves, the Democrats have no power.
00:36:23.320
We're arguing amongst ourselves whether we can get Republicans to vote for Trump's confirmation.
00:36:31.660
And everybody should understand, if you vote against this, you've signed your political
00:36:42.480
And then we've got to go up into Maine and dig out Susan Collins.
00:36:46.020
And in Alaska, you've got to get rid of this ranked choice voting.
00:36:57.940
The other thing, the Murdoch's got to understand.
00:37:01.240
I think it'd be best if the Murdoch's got with the program.
00:37:05.480
Because these cabinet secretaries are going to be the cabinet secretaries.
00:37:13.000
And Matt Gaetz, as Attorney General, and the team they put around that's been announced
00:37:26.820
So don't try your cute stuff by using your puppets like Kilmeade and Trey Gowdy.
00:37:32.880
Trey, you know, I had Senator Thune on, the incoming Senate Majority Leader, yesterday.
00:37:39.860
And he basically said, listen, it's not going to be easy.
00:37:42.920
Some of these picks are not going to be easy to get through.
00:37:45.960
But there is this mandate just by the vote that there is a feeling that Republican senators
00:37:52.700
in particular, most of them, want to give the president what he wants.
00:37:58.300
Yeah, the overwhelming majority of his picks will sail through because they were Grand Slam
00:38:05.640
But to Molly's point, you don't root out corruption at the Department of Justice by picking a corrupt
00:38:12.880
So Matt Gaetz, either the report comes out and he's not going to be the attorney general,
00:38:17.920
or the report doesn't come out and he's not going to be the attorney general.
00:38:21.780
I mean, the problem, Brett, is all the good picks, John Lee Radcliffe, Elise Stefanik, Lee
00:38:32.680
They're talking about this wild card pick of someone who had to get out of the House
00:38:37.500
to avoid being sanctioned by the House Ethics Committee.
00:38:41.120
That dumbfounding pick is just sucking the oxygen out of all the good ones he made.
00:38:46.460
So Trey Gowdy, and by the way, he was, to go back in time on the beginning of the Russia
00:38:56.720
collusion, the Russia hoax, Paul Ryan, who hates Trump, is on the board of Fox.
00:39:02.320
Forrest Devin Nunez, who was Kash Patel's boss.
00:39:08.300
So the cast of characters over there, Kash Patel was the lead counsel.
00:39:14.360
The chief investigator and the kind of chief of staff was Colonel Derek Harvey.
00:39:20.840
So you have Kash, you have Derek Harvey, and Devin Nunez, who runs True Trump Media, was
00:39:26.780
the head of the intelligence community and fantastic guy.
00:39:30.320
He, because he was an ally of ours, was removed by Paul Ryan.
00:39:34.840
He said he had conflict, recused him, forced him to recuse.
00:39:39.540
And in the place, he put Trey Gowdy, who was on the committee, against Swifty, Shifty,
00:39:49.920
And I had the pleasure of spending, I don't know, 20 hours being grilled by these guys,
00:39:54.700
looking for perjury traps all the time, being grilled.
00:40:03.140
He's a horrible person, perfect person to be over the Murdoch's running dog.
00:40:07.980
The question I've got, you talk about a house, Trey Gowdy, you left the house like in the
00:40:13.100
middle of the night as a rising quote-unquote star.
00:40:37.760
Before you start attacking Gates, why did you leave the house?
00:40:46.320
Now, there's lots of rumors about why you left the house.
00:40:49.340
Of course, here at the War Room, we would never traffic in rumors.
00:40:55.960
But you didn't take being a judge, which would be an obvious choice.
00:40:59.060
You didn't check being a U.S. attorney or attorney for the government, which would have been an obvious choice.
00:41:04.420
You didn't take going for a big law firm and getting a payday.
00:41:09.400
You kind of put your shingle up, kind of wandered around.
00:41:14.800
So why don't you explain that first, and then we can hear what you've got to say about Gates.
00:41:36.220
She did a great job, I think, over the U.N., particularly if she gets into the engine room of Geneva.
00:41:41.060
And, you know, Walt, they always want to go back to the Republican playbook.
00:41:47.060
The Republican Party did not win this election.
00:41:52.360
Donald Trump and MAGA, and MAGA has now increased, and guess what?
00:41:58.980
That's how you get to two-thirds of the country.
00:42:01.000
The Republicans are trying to get you back concentrated so you're always a minority party.
00:42:09.980
That's why Trump controls the Republican Party, the Republican Party, essentially the MAGA Party.
00:42:15.720
And the Murdoch's got to get it through their thick heads.
00:42:24.620
Heck, they got a thing in Woodward's book how one of the boys had a fundraiser in October of 22.
00:42:30.480
We're fighting tooth and nail to take the House or the country's over.
00:42:35.680
They give a fundraiser for the Democrats and have Biden there.
00:42:38.820
That's in print and never been refuted by the Murdochs.
00:42:42.480
Trey Gowdy, before you start going after my man Gates and the president's man Gates, the next attorney general of these United States, please answer for the audience.
00:43:06.860
You put to bed a lot of the rumors around town of why you left, bro.
00:43:19.460
Can we clean up your mess first before we start going after Gates?
00:43:23.540
Who's going to be, is President Trump's pick and going to be the attorney general?
00:43:30.140
I promise, I commit to you, that Captain Maureen Bennett is actually going to get to speak the show.
00:43:40.440
Most Americans know something is very, very wrong.
00:43:44.820
The people in charge keep telling you that everything's fine and to stop noticing.
00:43:49.540
That's why self-reliant folks are investing in emergency food storage.
00:43:56.380
My Patriots Supply, the nation's largest emergency preparedness company, are the ones you can trust.
00:44:02.380

00:44:58.520
Okay, so if you want to be as jacked up around your family and rant and channel Steve Vann this weekend,
00:45:03.920
you need to go to Warpath.coffee and use promo code WARROOM to get yourself your own bag of Warpath coffee.
00:45:17.560
You go to, what are you going to give it like a half rate?
00:45:22.800
And they have, I know you love the Mariner's Blend.
00:45:26.040
And, you know, I'm not a big black coffee, I'm not a big black coffee drinker, but the Mariner's Blend, it's not bitter, it's great.
00:45:35.280
I know you give me a hard time, but I do love the flavored coffee, the vanilla hazelnut.
00:45:39.540
They have a pumpkin pie flavor for the fall and all those pumpkin spice people.
00:45:46.720
And they also are now coming out with a Christmas blend, so for all the holidays.
00:45:50.920
But you go to Warpath.coffee, use promo code WARROOM and...
00:46:01.900
Your hesitancy here is that if they were Army Special Forces, are they Green Berets or Special Forces?
00:46:07.300
And then you, Rangers, you've always had a problem that Tejas is a SEAL.
00:46:12.900
We're one big happy family until December 14th when Army beats Navy.
00:46:22.280
The first time since, I believe, the 1990s that they've been 9-0.
00:46:32.960
I thought it was back to the 40s, like with the Touchdown Twins.
00:46:37.280
We're always sponsored on Saturday by Birch Gold.
00:46:48.120
And if Grace can put it up on Twitter for the War Room, we will...
00:46:55.000
This gets down to the complexity of what this audience is perfect for.
00:47:06.660
How Elon and Vivek are going to find $2 trillion or $1 trillion, whatever it is,
00:47:14.400
I think the first thing Elon's done that's very smart in his talks with people, he says,
00:47:23.260
The system gives you these projected-out 10-year budgets.
00:47:26.120
And when they talk about trends, this is what McCarthy tried to sell us on, you know,
00:47:31.220
That, oh, this is the greatest amount of cuts ever.
00:47:35.600
It was like $2.5 trillion cuts, but it was all fantasy cuts in the out years, which will
00:47:41.580
And they were in the business of selling that because they thought voters were morons.
00:47:48.280
Here, it talks about what they're going to try to do up front, but it connects it to the
00:47:52.000
appropriations process, which I've said, hey, is central to this.
00:47:55.720
That's why there's going to be some turbulence.
00:47:59.200
Because we've got $37 trillion of debt, we're adding a trillion dollars every 100 days, right?
00:48:04.720
You got the interest, you know, they're refinancing one-third of the debt every year, and they're
00:48:11.440
So major structural changes have to take place.
00:48:16.300
You're going to have turbulence in the capital markets.
00:48:17.980
That's why birchgold.com slash bannet now more than ever, or go to Bannon on your phone,
00:48:23.620
Bannon, 98, 98, 98, do it right there, IRAs, 401ks, all of it, that Philip Patrick and
00:48:31.220
the team, it would give you access to the top people at the company.
00:48:33.980
So use that access and talk about these tax-deferred programs they have, all of it.
00:48:40.900
Also, because we're very, you know, the way we drive victories is you're at the ramparts,
00:48:47.760
because your voice is heard, and man, it is going to be heard in these confirmations.
00:48:59.680
The last thing we want is somebody to have a second mortgage taken out of their home because
00:49:04.560
their title was taken, or people got access to it.
00:49:09.680
That's what home title lock, the operant word there being lock, is about.
00:49:16.460
And now they've got Natalie Dominguez, who does information and education over there.
00:49:21.980
So just go to hometitlelock.com slash bannet once again, and go check that out.
00:49:28.100
And Paradigm Press, the Paradigm, Jim Rickards, I love Rickards, fabulous contributor.
00:49:33.520
It's, what is it, 24, what is it, the code number, Mo, is?
00:49:44.140
They have a landing page with all their, he's got newsletters, they've got specialty newsletters,
00:49:50.120
If you want to get more inside baseball, this guy called the election, he and his analysts
00:49:56.520
Rickards is one of the smartest guys I've ever met.
00:49:59.480
I was going to say that, but I might be a little biased.
00:50:01.720
I think you're the smartest guy I've ever met, but then Jim Rickards is a close second.
00:50:07.220
You know, Mo Band, CEO, bonus, it's bonus time, it's pitching hard, but I like that.
00:50:13.740
That will be, that's duly noted in your annual review.
00:50:21.420
So the Rickards, and they, and once again, you have access to the senior guys over there.
00:50:27.460
You go to Meltdown 24, and you get access to his books.
00:50:33.660
I came across Jim Rickards on Currency Wars back, I don't know, a decade ago, right?
00:50:39.440
Just a brilliant guy, and he's been such a great contributor to the show.
00:50:45.100
No, so I went back and looked about the Army-Navy.
00:50:48.460
So in 1949, Army was 9-0, however, however, however, thank you, thank you, thank you, Captain
00:50:53.860
Bailey, however, not 1995, no, no, 1996, they were 10-2, they went 9-0, and then lost the
00:51:00.240
10th game, so, okay, hang on, hang on, hang on, so don't change, so they were 9-0 in 95?
00:51:06.080
One of the reasons, Mo was on the volleyball team that was, either won the conference championship
00:51:11.680
or went to the playoffs and lost in conference championship, and eventually went to first,
00:51:15.800
first woman, first female team, Division I sport, never went to the NCAAs.
00:51:24.540
Mm-hmm, in 2009, first time in volleyball, and the program history as well that we went to.
00:51:29.860
Program history, but also of any woman's sport.
00:51:32.160
Yeah, I don't think any other woman's sport at West Point had gone.
00:51:34.460
Had gone to that pretty extraordinary, but my point to that was that we had to sit through
00:51:40.720
some pretty lean years in Army football against Navy.
00:51:45.220
That was Navy's, the golden age of Navy football, one of the golden ages.
00:51:51.600
All four years, and actually, the first year that I saw Army beat Navy was when President-elect
00:51:58.440
Donald J. Trump was at the Army-Navy game in 2016.
00:52:02.320
We saw a victory for the first time in 15 years.
00:52:13.680
Trump's probably going to go now as President-elect.
00:52:21.200
Some people in the chat are some people saying, man, Billy Strings on the cover of Johnny Cassius
00:52:26.320
when the man comes around from the book of Revelation.
00:52:52.860
