It's an empty threat, and he can't credibly threaten jail time, right, for members of
00:00:06.820
Congress for having done, been part of this investigation. If that's something that he's
00:00:10.620
going to threaten, but he's not going to be able to carry out. But he is going to be able to carry
00:00:15.040
out his, the other side of this threat, which is to set free all the people who committed crimes
00:00:19.740
and were convicted of crimes, even including violence, on January 6th. What do you think
00:00:26.080
the effect of that will be on the country? What does that do to us as a polity, as a democracy,
00:00:33.780
as a country? What does that do to us? Trump is not a believer in the rule of law. We know that
00:00:39.820
from all of his activities, and that you would pardon people who committed this violence,
00:00:46.520
who were either convicted or pled guilty of really violent acts, really undercuts the rule of law.
00:00:55.180
I mean, you know, clemency is for people who have earned it. People, you know, we see people who
00:01:03.900
have mended their ways. Right now, we've got rioters in court saying that they don't care. You know,
00:01:11.180
Trump is going to pardon them anyhow. It's a really very destructive suggestion that we would pardon
00:01:17.620
these criminals and try and threaten people who aren't criminals, the January 6th committee members.
00:01:23.440
Donald Trump's pick for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, last night attempting to soften comments
00:01:30.340
he has made about women's ability to fight on the front lines, but he didn't. He just separated from
00:01:35.380
it. Hegseth will be back on Capitol Hill today to meet with Republican senators. He says he is meeting
00:01:41.720
with Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska today and with Senator Susan Collins of Maine tomorrow. It comes
00:01:48.720
after he sat down for a second time yesterday with a key lawmaker, Senator Joni Ernst of Iowa. Last week,
00:01:56.720
she was hesitant to support the former Fox News host who has been accused of sexual assault,
00:02:03.000
abusing alcohol and financial mismanagement of two nonprofits dedicated to veterans,
00:02:10.180
all of which he denies. But yesterday, Senator Ernst had a different tone about Hegseth,
00:02:15.100
releasing a statement praising him for his responsiveness and respect for the process and
00:02:21.860
calling their conversations encouraging. Here's what she had to say about the meeting when pressed
00:02:27.360
by reporters. It was a very productive meeting, though. I think we're we're just moving through the
00:02:44.160
process. But he does respect that I'm taking the time to talk about the allegations.
00:02:50.360
Guys, guys, thank you. Can you talk about the allegations as well, Senator? Thank you. I'll
00:02:54.020
report back to my statement. Did he commit? He said supporting the process. It doesn't sound like
00:02:57.280
a yes yet. Is that fair? I am supporting the process. Did he commit to keeping women in their
00:03:02.400
current roles in the military? He is very supportive of women in the military. It is one thing that we
00:03:08.320
discussed. So he's changed his position? He's changed his position on that?
00:03:11.260
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on
00:03:22.400
these people. Here's what I got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people. The people
00:03:28.860
have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything
00:03:32.780
in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen. And where do people
00:03:36.360
like that go to share the big line? Mega Media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people
00:03:44.180
had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my
00:03:52.120
country, this country will be saved. War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Vance.
00:03:59.320
Tuesday, 10 December, year of our Lord, 2024. Welcome. You're in the War Room. A lot to go
00:04:10.760
through today. I want to talk right at the bat with the, obviously the nominations. New York Times
00:04:18.820
kind of a story. And this is a, about what this audience accomplished, 100% about what the audience
00:04:26.540
accomplished. It's a, uh, headline at today's, uh, this morning's New York Times. It goes, uh,
00:04:31.020
talks about how MAGA and the MAGA right and the grassroots movement were able to, uh, get Senator
00:04:38.220
Ernst attention. And, uh, and she had a great meeting yesterday. Cash Patel also met with her
00:04:43.340
beforehand. Cash has a very strong, um, relationship with her and cash is up there today. So you got cash
00:04:49.980
up there today. You've got Pete Hexeth again today. Um, uh, Tulsi, I think is going around
00:04:55.980
starting. I think Scott Besson is going to be back up there today and tomorrow winning for Bobby
00:05:01.420
Kennedy. Um, remember we're a big believer in, in, um, flood the zone. The lesson taken from
00:05:10.060
the lesson taken from the New York Times piece is that the power player in this, um, endeavor
00:05:19.180
it's not Fox news and the Murdochs. It is you. It's this audience, the activist audience,
00:05:23.660
when the activist audience rears up and, uh, and gets focused and, and lets their, um,
00:05:31.500
their direction be known of what they would like to see is the outcome. And their outcome
00:05:36.700
here right now is that president Trump took a bullet to the head and four months later,
00:05:41.740
when a landslide in that, um, you know, the Republican Senate should, um, advise him,
00:05:49.260
but then consent to his choices. I think Tom Cotton was last night, it was on Fox. I think
00:05:54.540
we'll pull that one. Tom Cotton was saying, um, you know, it's very rare for Republican Senate
00:05:59.260
not to go, to go against the choice of a individual who just won the presidency and
00:06:04.220
including the fact that he held the house and he took the Senate with on his shoulders.
00:06:11.980
So he should get his choices. And Pete Hex is his choice. It talks about specifically
00:06:19.980
this last week, this, um, nomination being in the, um, hanging by a thread
00:06:26.300
on late Thursday afternoon, as it was. And people remember president Trump had not come in at that
00:06:34.220
time and really said much. He was going to, I think, let Pete, uh, see. And for president Trump,
00:06:41.420
the key value, the key virtue is resilience, resilience. His movement is resilient. He is
00:06:48.620
resilient. What does that mean? You can take a punch and you can punch back that you can dust yourself
00:06:56.220
off and punch back and eventually win. He likes winners. And he understands in winners, in the
00:07:01.740
process of winning, you don't win every day. Look at our movement. We've done, I don't know, since the,
00:07:08.860
since 2008, the beginning, then before then that, you know, the, the, some of the Ross Perot element,
00:07:14.860
other elements that were out there. But since the tea party movement, it's resilience. We haven't won
00:07:20.380
everything. In fact, some of our victories have turned into the law of unintended consequences
00:07:25.660
that have turned into have the seeds of defeat in them. That's fine. This is all a process.
00:07:31.660
This is all a process. Just keep driving it forward and victory begets victory. And you're
00:07:36.620
going to have some reverses. You're going to have reverses of fortune. This is what the military
00:07:41.660
history shows you. You're not going to win everything, but you're going to directionally
00:07:45.260
start to win enough and start to move down the path and get to your key objectives.
00:07:51.020
President Trump, the Pete was out there. I think some, maybe some stuff he didn't fully
00:07:54.220
understand. I want to see how Pete did, how Pete Hegseth did. And if Pete Hegseth is going to
00:08:00.140
get into the defense department and get the woke out, but remember also the woke
00:08:06.060
to the war fighting, don't let the woke be a shiny toy. Don't let the woke be a shiny toy.
00:08:11.740
Because Fox, they want, they want you to totally focus on the woke.
00:08:15.660
All they want to do is focus on the woke. Don't let it be a shiny toy. Yes, we must get the woke
00:08:19.900
out. They must get back to war fighting. It has to happen. It's not going to be easy,
00:08:22.860
but it's doable. The bigger element is how do you actually reorganize and reorient
00:08:31.980
the Department of Defense so that it actually not just wins wars, but defends the United States
00:08:37.660
and prevents our real interest, pushes forward our real interest at a manageable cost.
00:08:46.140
It shouldn't be lost on anybody. If you're a follower of the war room,
00:08:48.780
what is the biggest thing happening today? The biggest thing happening on Capitol Hill today
00:08:52.700
is not, is not Pete Hegseth and Cash Patel and Tulsi Gabbard wandering around the United States
00:09:02.380
Senate and the offices. That is not. That's what they want you to focus on 1000%. Remember,
00:09:07.100
the nominations are the easy part. Then it gets down to what you're trying to accomplish.
00:09:10.460
The nominations to a degree are a shiny toy. We focus on them because you have to
00:09:18.700
engage because we know some of these are controversial and this audience is going to
00:09:21.820
have to be engaged and you were engaged. There were 20,000 hits just from the Article III project
00:09:28.380
through you, 20,000. And there was tens of thousands through Bill Blaster and others,
00:09:34.380
hundreds of 100,000. And somebody in cycle like Senator Ernst, that will get them attention.
00:09:41.500
John Cornyn wasn't the first person that Cash went to yesterday for random. This was not a random
00:09:46.540
selection. John Cornyn is John Cornyn's in cycle. He's up for re-election. He does not want a Ken Paxton
00:09:53.660
MAGA challenge from his right. So he's the first one. He says Cash Patel is going to be the FBI director.
00:10:03.660
He's saying, Hey, I understand MAGA. I understand President Trump. This is what they want. This is what
00:10:07.180
they're going to get. The most important thing in Axios, I haven't had a chance to put up on Gary yet.
00:10:15.100
Axios is lead story. And if it's about the billionaires and the, and the, I think the Defense
00:10:20.620
Department, if we can please pull that. I have not because I've been engaged in other topics this morning.
00:10:25.020
The most important thing that's happening right now is the NDAA, the National Defense Authorization
00:10:33.820
Act. And you would say, Stephen, Brother Bannon, why? I don't know. With Syria on fire and Ukraine
00:10:41.660
blowing up and launching missiles into Russia and, um, you know, you got the Chinese in the South China
00:10:48.300
Sea. Uh, you've got, um, all this going on. And of course you got the shooter. He's going to down a
00:10:55.980
CEO and cold blood shooting him in the back and putting out a manifesto. He's kind of a mini me
00:11:00.540
Unabomber, right? Get Unabomber head of manifesto, which we always recommend everybody read.
00:11:05.980
You should read this young man's manifesto. Um, with that and with Daniel Penny, you got all this,
00:11:13.980
so much going on, but you got to boom. What is the most important, most important thing happening
00:11:17.820
right now is the National Defense Authorization Act. You say, well, what does that got to do with
00:11:20.880
anything? This sets the way the cartel runs here? It's about money and power. Okay. The reason they
00:11:30.440
don't like you is you've intruded upon their garden party to say, uh, you know what? I think
00:11:35.620
this thing has to go in a different direction. I think it has to go in a different direction.
00:11:40.340
And number one, we can't keep spending like this because you're bankrupting us. But more
00:11:44.820
importantly, you got to spread all over hell's half angry. They just put the other day, the tweet,
00:11:49.140
we have 100, 113,000 troops in 140 locations throughout the world. Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:11:56.660
The framers warned us about becoming an empire. The framers warned us about going in search of
00:12:01.620
dragons to slay, of monsters to slay. The framers were so about treaties that it made
00:12:08.500
two thirds of a vote in the Senate, two thirds, two thirds votes in the Senate ain't easy.
00:12:14.420
They knew that would have to unite the country to do it. So they didn't want a lot of alliances.
00:12:18.580
They didn't want a lot of treaties. If they had wanted a lot of trees, they said, hey, just
00:12:22.820
we'll do it on a voice voice vote for 51% or maybe, hey, get a third, get a couple of guys show up
00:12:28.340
and say, and then we'll have another treaty. They didn't want treaties. They didn't want alliances.
00:12:32.980
If you're going to get them, you got to earn them. It's got to be big. It's got to be important.
00:12:36.260
You got to kind of bring the country together for a debate and then vote.
00:12:41.060
The NDAA is the app arrest. Now authorization, you say, well, Holly, it's not a budget. What is this
00:12:47.140
authorization? This is what it is. And folks at the Justice Department and the FBI and all these people
00:12:53.740
running to us right now and saying, well, he doesn't have the constitutional power to do this. He
00:12:57.220
doesn't have to do that. This is why we're merging the DOGE and the OMB. That's why Russ
00:13:02.100
votes are important to one process about appropriations. Because remember, appropriations
00:13:05.700
is a bill. It's a law. It's a law. It's a contract. Just like you have a contract. You have a contract
00:13:11.140
right now on social security and Medicare, and you're not prepared to give up that contract.
00:13:15.220
I would tell you as your representative and negotiating like Goldman Sachs one-on-one. No,
00:13:19.060
you're not going to, you're not going to agree to anything. You have a contractual obligation
00:13:23.140
with these guys. You're not going to back off anything until you get more than what you
00:13:27.060
want. There's also a contract here on authorizations. These departments supposed
00:13:31.940
to be authorized every five years. The Defense Department, they do it every year.
00:13:35.300
Why do they do it every year? They want to make sure there's never any question, never
00:13:38.980
any question about spending the money. It's a trillion dollars, baby. It's every congressional
00:13:44.500
district. They're taking care of everybody, just like Fauci and Collins take care of them
00:13:48.260
over at NIH and over HHS. They spread this money in every congressional district. You know why?
00:13:54.420
Because that's bipartisanship. They can then be, Collins is bipartisan. Fauci's bipartisan.
00:13:59.460
The Defense Department's bipartisan. Your guys are bought and paid for.
00:14:06.740
The NDAA, it's a trillion dollars, and it wraps us up into a continuation of the American
00:14:14.580
Empire. Why are they doing it now? Why can't that wait to Donald Trump's here? Why can't that wait to
00:14:18.900
the 20th? At least wait to a new Congress in the 3rd? And why can't it wait to Trump? I'm asking for a
00:14:24.820
friend. Why can't it wait? Can't wait because they want to jam it in now and lock in that trillion dollars.
00:14:35.780
of the 21st century, only one, who wins? The Chinese Communist Party, the United States of America.
00:14:42.180
That question, you answer that question, go down that decision tree.
00:14:50.500
Short commercial break. Eric Bolling is going to join us in the war room.
00:14:54.900
Big victory on 5 November. Now the work can finally start on the big issues facing the country. One of
00:15:06.180
the biggest is the national debt and the deficits that drive it. Hey, you think the country's broke?

00:16:25.380
could have left their jobs and said, I'm not going to go along with Russiagate, which really involved
00:16:32.900
not just the FBI, but many different bureaucracies. He was really the only one who raised his hand and
00:16:39.300
said, yeah, I'm willing to put my name out there as somebody who is going to look at this from a
00:16:44.340
different direction. And he went to go, you know, to work with Devin Noons, who at the time was the
00:16:51.220
head of the House Intelligence Committee that Republicans still controlled the House Intel
00:16:55.220
Committee when Trump was in the early part of Trump's presidency, which was fortunate because
00:17:00.660
that meant they had subpoena power to look at the origins of Russiagate. And so while the rest of the
00:17:07.620
country was completely focused on the Mueller investigation and hanging on every, you know,
00:17:14.260
imagined and real development with that investigation, Patel had his own team. Actually,
00:17:19.700
there were two teams investigating how Russiagate got started, how the whole investigation happened.
00:17:26.180
And nobody was interested in that. You have to remember most of the people who actually run the FBI
00:17:31.700
don't have a lot of field experience. They haven't put cases together. They haven't done
00:17:35.540
real investigations. They've overseen them in the past, but they haven't done them.
00:17:40.180
Cash actually has. He's worked as a prosecutor. I think he's got a criminal justice degree. He's been
00:17:45.220
a public defender. And the report that he put together about Russiagate with the help of Devin
00:17:51.460
Noons turned out to be like 100% on the money. I mean, I had my doubts about the guy when I first
00:17:57.540
came across him. But that report, you know, turned out to be completely right. And everybody was against
00:18:03.860
them. So the report you're mentioning is the Nunes memo and you've written about this and you've
00:18:08.020
gotten covered this many times. If you could just remind us of basically how the Nunes memo came
00:18:14.420
about. It was kind of competing with, at the time, a Schiff memo that he put out to, if I'm remembering
00:18:19.140
correctly, preemptively rebut the Nunes memo. But the Nunes memo, which is dismissed by the media
00:18:27.060
offhand as a joke, has been mostly validated as my understanding, Matt, since we've had the Durham
00:18:33.460
report, the Horowitz report, the Horowitz IG report, the Durham special counsel report. It sort of seems
00:18:39.540
like he did get it right. Oh yeah, he got it absolutely right. I wouldn't even say mostly
00:18:44.340
validated. I would say, unless there's something small that I can't remember, the main points of
00:18:50.340
the Nunes memo were that the warrant to conduct secret FISA surveillance on the former Trump aide
00:19:00.820
Carter Page, which was incredibly important for a couple of reasons. And people forget this. The FBI
00:19:06.420
sought surveillance on this guy Carter Page in September of 2016, before the election had taken
00:19:15.300
place. At that time, the FBI's crossfire hurricane probe into Trump and Russia had basically already
00:19:23.620
stalled. The original focus of their investigation was a guy named George Papadopoulos. And that story
00:19:30.500
turned out to be nothing. And they basically dropped it, except as a, you know, a lying to investigators
00:19:38.420
case. It didn't have any juice as an actual conspiracy case. So they were looking for somebody else to
00:19:44.260
investigate so they could keep the probe into Trump and his possible connections to Russia going.
00:19:51.140
And they picked this guy, Carter Page, who there's a long backstory here that's not important to get
00:19:57.140
into. The important thing is the FBI essentially lied to the FISA court in its warrant application. It
00:20:06.740
used the Steele dossier as evidence to support the idea that Page was some kind of cut out for the
00:20:13.780
Russians. And that was, of course, paid opposition research. And then they did some other incredibly
00:20:19.860
unethical things, like citing as supporting evidence a Yahoo article that itself was quoting
00:20:27.860
Steele. So they were citing the same evidence twice, like, you know, a major no-no to do in a court
00:20:33.780
application. But the main thing is they lied in the FISA application, and they used the Steele dossier in
00:20:39.780
the FISA application. And that's important because without that, the FBI probably doesn't get the
00:20:46.340
FISA warrant, and the investigation probably dies at that point. There was no more there there for
00:20:52.740
them to pursue. And also that surveillance authority didn't just cover Carter Page. It covered everybody
00:21:01.140
who talked to Carter Page and everybody who talked to those people who talked to Carter Page. It's what
00:21:05.700
they call a two-hop warrant. So they got to, they got a window into the entire Trump universe
00:21:11.300
through this one moment. And they did it by lying.
00:21:18.180
That is Matt Taibbi, formerly of Rolling Stone, now has his own operation. We'll make sure. And he's
00:21:23.620
a guy like Glenn Greenwald and others. It's reasoned Tulsi Gabbard's DNI. This is the coming
00:21:30.900
together. We're coming together as a, as a group on economic policy now. But against the
00:21:38.260
administrative and deep state, we have been essentially working as one, although we don't
00:21:43.700
know each other and don't, don't, you know, socialize or don't, you know, I've never had Matt
00:21:47.940
on the show, directionally. That right there in a very succinct, I think three minutes,
00:21:53.860
lays out the beginning, the foundational element for Cash Patel's FBI director. And this is why
00:22:00.740
they're going crazy. And Cash Patel is going to get, if we can pull that, we'll play it later,
00:22:04.980
the Cornyn. Cash Patel is going to be confirmed as the director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
00:22:10.740
Yes, he will. As I said, and I repeat, Cash Patel not only knows where the bodies are buried
00:22:21.060
at the FBI. He knows how much dirt's on top of each one. The FBI is a thoroughly corrupt
00:22:35.220
And this is coming from a kid. When I was a kid growing up in our parish in Richmond, Virginia,
00:22:40.180
St. Paul's Catholic Church, and then St. Benedict's later, the most revered guys and the dads in the,
00:22:48.420
in the parish were not the doctors or the lawyers. You know, my dad was essentially had just come
00:22:53.780
from being a former at the phone company. It was kind of low, the lowest rung of management.
00:22:58.340
Great guy. But the revered guys were the, we had a couple of two FBI agents, field agents. They were
00:23:04.820
revered, the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover's FBI. For, for a Catholic back in those days could have been a higher,
00:23:11.700
you know, position in the government. Even with Kennedy becoming president, the FBI guys were
00:23:18.980
kind of the permanent. And they worked for Hoover, who even then was still revered as being the
00:23:25.220
anti-communist. The guy was anti-communist. That's not the FBI today. The FBI today is thoroughly
00:23:30.500
incompetent and corrupt. It has to be taken apart brick by brick. And Cash Patel is the guy to do it.
00:23:35.620
And they understand it. That's where they're fighting him. Also, Cash Patel, and that's Taibbi,
00:23:40.260
just going through the very, very basics. That story continues on when we won and they went into,
00:23:48.500
into shock in December, you know, later with Nunez and Cash. That's where I first started meeting Cash.
00:23:56.060
Because Nunez, Nunez became the head of the intelligence committee. Because why? Because
00:24:03.100
we made Pompeo, who I think Mike Rogers had it. They rotated it. Pompeo was going to take it. And we
00:24:08.220
named Pompeo the head of the CIA. And he was very upfront with us later. He couldn't control the CIA.
00:24:15.200
He couldn't take it apart. Cash Patel was the chief investigator. I think Derek Harvey was the chief
00:24:23.020
investigator. And Cash was the general counsel for House Intel when this whole thing started.
00:24:28.140
And I got over $2 million of legal bills that I paid myself as shifty shift grilled me for, I don't
00:24:36.700
know, 20, 25, 30 hours. And Don McGahn and Reince Priebus and everybody in essentially a tribunal,
00:24:42.860
a witch hunt to prove everything about the Steele dossier, which were all lies. And Comey leaked to
00:24:49.000
BuzzFeed after he showed it to the president, totally illegitimately and illegally.
00:24:55.000
This is the kind of operation you have. These people are criminals. They are criminals. They've
00:24:59.500
done criminal activity and lots of it. And guess what? They're going to be investigated. It's going
00:25:03.820
to be adjudicated. They're going to be tried. And then a jury of their peers will figure out
00:25:09.020
what happens to them. I assume, given the facts that I know, and I don't know them all,
00:25:15.520
I know enough of them, but I don't know. I'm a long way from knowing them all, but that's
00:25:21.060
what an investigation is for. They will go to federal prison for many, many, many years and
00:25:25.980
or decades. McCabe and Comey and that whole crowd. It's not about retribution. I don't have time for
00:25:34.100
retribution. Trump doesn't. None of us have. You have to do this for the country. We have a moral
00:25:41.960
obligation to do this. The country sat as a jury on the 5th of November and they've rendered their
00:25:49.920
verdict. Their verdict is we don't want any more of this. We can't have this. We don't fully
00:25:55.960
understand it. We don't know the players, these names or all this stuff. It makes my, it makes
00:25:59.420
their brains hurt. They don't, and they don't have time to know it and they don't have to know it.
00:26:05.580
We have to know it because we sat there and watch Rachel Maddow every night with shifty
00:26:09.760
shift coming. We got big things breaking and he's a communist and part of Putin. That is
00:26:13.960
a bald face lie and crimes were committed. And Matt Taibbi is not MAGA and Glenn Greenwald's
00:26:21.820
not MAGA. They're the farthest things from MAGA. They're, they're not part of our program. They
00:26:26.620
hate a lot of what we do, but they understand one thing and we're united in one cause is that
00:26:34.120
the administrative state's rogue element, the military intelligence, quote unquote,
00:26:39.780
legal and justice system that's merged into one to basically make sure that they make a
00:26:44.380
determination on who runs this deal. This is why Brennan sits there and goes, no, they have
00:26:50.680
to have FBI checks. And he's sitting on there and he says, they have to have FBI checks and
00:26:53.920
you know, intelligence has to be comfortable with these guys. Intelligence has to be comfortable.
00:26:57.600
I want you to be uncomfortable because Brennan, you're the lead dog, bro. Cause combing these
00:27:03.660
guys are kind of bozos and McCabe. They're not that impressive. These kind of clowns.
00:27:07.900
You're you, sir, are the evil one. And sir, you will assure the turning of the earth. You're
00:27:17.900
going to go to prison. And guess what? They know it up on Capitol Hill. You think they're
00:27:22.800
sitting there with cash? Corning and these guys are coming out. Grassley's coming out.
00:27:27.600
Grassley, Grassley, you can't get a straighter guy than Grassley. These Iowa guys, you can't
00:27:32.800
get straighter guys than that. He comes out yesterday and says, Ray's got to go. I've
00:27:36.140
had enough of it. I've seen enough of it. Time's up. Grassley, no fire breather. They
00:27:43.600
understand the corruption. They understand the incompetence. It's incumbent upon him.
00:27:50.200
This is why the cash Patel has been in the trenches from day one and never wavered when
00:27:55.820
they try to destroy him. Just like Navarro, just like Rudy, just like Grinnell.
00:28:11.060
We are not backing off. We didn't back off in 2021 in January. We ain't backing off now.
00:28:17.280
It's obvious. The unthinkable continues. Most Americans know something is very, very wrong.
00:28:27.140
The people in charge keep telling you that everything's fine and to stop noticing. But
00:28:31.460
you know better. That's why self-reliant folks are investing in emergency food storage.

So I am supporting you through this process, and I'll just refer you back to the statement.
00:29:38.600
It was a very productive meeting, though. I think we're just moving through the process.
00:29:44.660
But he does respect that I'm taking the time to spend it.
00:29:51.240
Did you talk about the allegations as well, Senator?
00:29:53.380
Thank you, but I'll look for it back to my statement.
00:29:55.480
He said supporting the process. It doesn't sound like a yes yet. Is that fair?
00:30:00.780
Did he commit to keeping women in their current roles in the military?
00:30:04.280
He is very supportive of women in the military.
00:30:07.160
You see the way these jackals are? See the way these jackals are? That's the jackal media.
00:30:12.580
This is the media we broke, the streaming services, the podcasts. We broke these folks.
00:30:18.500
That's what they do, the gang up on them. It's like a bunch of hyenas. You see these videos
00:30:22.920
on YouTube, you got the lion, and you got the hyenas come around, they're attacking them
00:30:32.520
They're all over her now. It's her turn in the barrel, right?
00:30:36.840
Colonel Ernst is going to be okay. She's going to be fine.
00:30:41.320
Eric, you're one of the original gangsters in this entire movement.
00:30:45.540
Let's talk about first the process of supporting the president's selections, his picks, his nominees.
00:30:53.260
You got cash. You got Pete Hexeth. I know you know Pete well.
00:30:58.340
You've got Tulsi. You got Bobby Kennedy. You got some people outside the box as he wants
00:31:07.840
He wants to take apart the administrative state and reform this government and something
00:31:11.520
that gets done what the people need to have done.
00:31:15.480
And is that a cost that it's not putting us in bankruptcy?
00:31:20.480
Steve, first of all, really good to be with you.
00:31:22.420
You know, that monologue and that setup, I'm probably not the only one who had a hand up
00:31:28.580
You were preaching, sir, and I think so many people feel exactly the way you do.
00:31:32.900
And we really learn as a group from you, Steve.
00:31:38.900
That makes you the original Don of the gangster crew.
00:31:41.920
Going back to Andrew Breitbart and Steve Bannon on radio.
00:31:45.640
Anyway, so to answer your question, Steve, you and I kind of briefly chatted a little bit
00:31:51.940
And my feeling, probably like yours, is that Donald Trump has been given a mandate by the American people,
00:31:59.040
maybe even the world, but certainly by the American people.
00:32:01.280
No one saw all seven of the swing states go Trump if you listen to mainstream media, including Fox.
00:32:13.700
No one saw 312 electoral college votes if you're watching mainstream media.
00:32:19.200
They saw if they're watching Bannon's War Room.
00:32:21.120
They saw if they're watching, you know, I used to be part of that media,
00:32:24.380
that disgusting, horrible group of people who everything that hits that screen, Steve,
00:32:33.300
And then yet another filter through the advertising department.
00:32:37.580
Any advertiser is going to get ticked off about us saying this.
00:32:44.860
You watch them and they measure every single word out of their mouth
00:32:48.440
because they're not sure if what they say, what they're feeling,
00:32:57.500
So the American people gave Donald Trump the mandate.
00:33:01.220
Whether you like Pete Hegseth or not or cash, it doesn't matter.
00:33:05.660
I happen to think both of them are going to be phenomenal cabinet members
00:33:14.340
What you did, what we did was we gave Donald Trump the right.
00:33:18.680
We gave him the right to pick who he wants for these various groups.
00:33:29.840
Yes, so effective, so political, but incompetence on top of it.
00:33:37.100
I remember just having this exalted feeling about the FBI.
00:33:41.720
They're the baddest of the bad over there in law enforcement.
00:33:46.860
They're political tools, Strzok and Page, saying we're not going to let Trump win.
00:33:55.660
The American people are probably just shocked at the speed at which it's happening.
00:34:01.440
Trump wants to clearly break down the institutions that are deep state,
00:34:04.940
that are corrupt, that are incompetent, and rebuild them.
00:34:08.260
I mean, if nothing else, we have to trust Trump.
00:34:13.940
He's over in France and Macron and Maloney, and they're all just want to get near Trump.
00:34:20.500
Jill Biden's staring at him like she's got a crush on him.
00:34:25.220
Steve, and I got to tell your audience, you don't know me,
00:34:27.360
but I know Steve Bannon is a big part of what Trump is doing,
00:34:38.000
He was like Charlemagne, but I want to go back to the FBI because you've been there.
00:34:42.540
It's about, I don't know, was it 9-11 or what led up to 9-11,
00:34:48.240
The other thing about the way they're presenting this,
00:34:52.580
and that's why I had to have Taibbi open this in the cold open,
00:34:55.700
Kash Patel may be the most qualified of any director we've had recently.
00:35:02.860
I think that, Eric, 60% to 65% of their budget now is on counterterrorism
00:35:08.940
and counterintelligence, which is two different things.
00:35:16.020
you know, cops and being an investigator for cops.
00:35:19.560
Kash has got much more experience in the counterintelligence
00:35:23.980
Ray and these guys, they all came from kind of the criminal division
00:35:28.340
of the Justice Department, the criminal, you know,
00:35:30.560
working in the FBI, the criminal division, you know,
00:35:38.120
He's more of a counterintelligence, counterterrorism.
00:35:46.100
Eric, remember, to me, one of the most enlightening
00:35:48.060
of all the emails and text messages going on for everybody
00:36:11.620
That's that smells like Chanel number five to us.
00:36:36.220
thinks that they're of the people, by the people,
00:36:39.460
They've become a celebrity, elite, limousine liberal class,
00:36:44.540
and they're getting their butt handed to them in voting.
00:36:51.000
So the media, and let's really bring this in for a second.
00:37:20.500
But the point was that the media was complicit.
00:37:40.780
I mean, they were, the media was working hand-in-hand
00:37:43.400
with the deep state to take down the Republicans,
00:38:14.720
I'm gonna eviscerate the J. Edgar Hoover building
00:38:18.280
on Constitution Avenue right there and rebuild it.
00:38:45.840
and he knows exactly what you're talking about.
00:38:55.080
and the rest of the world is watching what we're doing.
00:39:05.400
some traditional MAGA people pushing back on Pete.
00:39:19.440
And so some of the people who are pushing back on Pete
00:39:37.860
Give the audience some insight on Pete Hexas as a man,
00:39:41.240
Worked with, I've worked with Pete over at Fox.
00:39:43.720
I was at Fox for, you know, I was there 11 years.
00:39:48.280
And I will tell you, this is really weird, Steve.
00:40:18.660
I mean, really, Lloyd Austin, wildly qualified.
00:40:21.900
Yeah, sure, he screwed up the Afghan withdrawal,
00:40:26.260
Horrible, terrible, most qualified defense secretary
00:41:13.140
No, you're one of Ailes' guys, I think, when Fox,
00:41:20.280
but you were there when Ailes was really running the place
00:42:00.960
Listen, I'm not blowing smoke up your dress, Steve.
00:42:04.040
Your audience needs to understand where you came from.
00:42:09.940
the OG thinkers in this whole populist movement
00:42:18.260
by the jacket and saying, Steve, get back in here.
00:42:33.320
Rumble, YouTube, Spotify, iTunes, everywhere, digitally.
00:42:46.180
and love to come back here and join you sometime.

00:45:06.520
I want to make sure – so put this in your – put this in your – get your number two pencil out
00:45:25.060
We're going to go through some turbulence, as I'm sure you know.
00:45:30.240
The arc of instability that goes kind of from, you know, the bloodlands up in Russia near –
00:45:39.480
A couple of – just throw out a couple of random names where we are lobbing long-range missiles
00:45:44.140
that are American-made with American technicians into Russia.
00:45:52.780
Romania, where we have a brigade of the 101st Airborne forward deployed,
00:45:56.380
you know, on the trigger, ready to go into Ukraine at a moment's notice.
00:46:02.360
I'm not one to say that that's happening, but hey, who knows?
00:46:06.840
They just canceled the Romanian election because a right-wing populist was leading the source candidate
00:46:13.200
They canceled the judicial system, threw it out.
00:46:16.300
He's a Putin asset, so they're going to do it next spring.
00:46:22.840
All the way through the Balkans to Greece, you got Turkey.
00:46:32.560
He wants to be like bigger than Ataturk as far as his image in the minds of the Turkish people.
00:46:40.700
He wants to reinstate the Ottoman Empire and have the caliphate –
00:46:45.320
have the caliphate not be in Iraq, not be in Saudi Arabia, but reconstitute the caliphate like ISIS tried to do under Obama
00:46:55.540
Restart the Ottoman Empire and eventually take over the two holy sites, Mecca and Medina.
00:46:59.880
That's where they head up to World War I for, I don't know, a thousand years.
00:47:03.540
You know, World War I with Lawrence of Arabia and the Bedouins.
00:47:11.440
And the Bedouins were on the side, Allenby, and, you know, they marched into Jerusalem,
00:47:16.360
marched into – I'm going to name a random place, Damascus.
00:47:23.740
Yeah, I get this Damascus thing kind of important, right?
00:47:27.020
So they're there, keep going through the Ark, all the way through Babylon.
00:47:33.480
Mesopotamia, that would be the river that's down there, right?
00:47:38.820
All the way through, you know, you got Persia to the North Arabian Sea, Persian Gulf.
00:47:43.120
I don't know, let's throw the Red Sea in there.
00:47:47.480
Pharaoh's army, they didn't turn out too well, right?
00:47:55.700
Hey, Palmyra, U.S. troops, when we took over, I don't know, 1,000 yards away.
00:48:01.000
Persian troops on the other, kind of where the Roman Empire and the Persians were, I don't know, 2,000 years ago.
00:48:11.940
You got kind of the Wests, the Romans, and now the Judeo-Christian West.
00:48:32.400
I'm a great believer in the common sense of the American people.
00:48:38.020
The Bannons are as about as standard stock American folks, Irish or a little German, out there.
00:48:49.600
And the common sense of the family, my mom and dad and others, my uncle, I just had a, my dad's beloved younger brother just passed away the other day.
00:49:03.940
Because one of them's got to go into priesthood.
00:49:09.740
And that's just the common sense of the American people.
00:49:11.560
If you give the American people access to information, they're going to weigh and measure it.
00:49:36.820
It's just that they're still tied down to the customs and traditions of thousands of years.
00:49:47.640
I tell people, you know, Mo became an Irish dancer.
00:49:50.100
She was an Irish dancer, Southern California, Irish dancer.
00:49:52.880
