law that we're doing today. It's going to save countless innocent American lives.
00:00:05.700
I want to thank every House Republican, every Senate Republican, as well as the 12 Senate
00:00:12.080
Democrats and the 48 House Democrats who voted to pass this vitally important bill. And many of
00:00:18.380
them are with us today. And I really do appreciate it. And I very much especially appreciate the
00:00:23.740
bipartisan support. The Democrats, really a big percentage of them came through and plenty of
00:00:29.180
them wanted to. They probably felt they couldn't, but they really wanted to. That they don't
00:00:33.900
understand that would have made them a lot more popular, would have made them a lot better with
00:00:39.560
their people. The ones that didn't are going to be, they're going to be sorry because the people are
00:00:46.240
not going to forget that they wouldn't sign. This is a perfect, incredible tribute to an unbelievable
00:00:51.600
young lady. It was a mix of emotions. President Trump, I was
00:00:58.000
happy because he heard the cries of a mother and he cares about us and he cares about our children
00:01:07.040
and he kept his word. And I really think that this is going to save lives.
00:01:12.060
This is one of his biggest campaign promises was to really secure the border and get these
00:01:17.980
hardened criminals, these illegals that have broke the law and harmed Americans out of this country.
00:01:26.340
Yes. And that's the one thing that I really appreciate about President Trump is that he
00:01:30.820
keeps his word. Four years when he was president, you know, years ago, we had four years of him
00:01:37.680
saying what he was going to do and then doing what he said. And so I'm so encouraged that he's back in
00:01:43.500
office and he's going to get rid of this craziness, this, you know, storming our borders and making our
00:02:02.140
Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people.
00:02:07.400
I got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it.
00:02:13.560
I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that,
00:02:16.760
but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.
00:02:18.740
And where do people like that go to share the big line?
00:02:23.700
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:02:29.140
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:02:32.900
If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:02:42.420
It's Wednesday, 29 January in the year of our Lord, 2025.
00:02:51.880
Brian Glenn is live at the White House, our White House correspondent.
00:02:55.740
Brian, big day today with the signing of the bill, but more importantly, the moms that were there.
00:03:00.320
You've tracked this story for four years. Tell me about it.
00:03:02.540
Yeah, what a special moment to have them in the East Room, Steve, as President Trump signs that first bill in office,
00:03:15.960
And just to see the pure emotion that President Trump had for these families that have lost loved ones due to the reckless open borders.
00:03:26.020
I had a moment to kind of talk to her after, off camera, and to learn more about her daughter.
00:03:32.380
And I really, you know, the stories that you're hearing and just how appreciative all of them are for what President Trump is doing right now.
00:03:43.000
But, Steve, this country is safer already because President Trump is in office and today is a great example.
00:03:51.600
Brian, can you hang on for one second or come right back to you at the White House?
00:04:01.060
But we have a very special, honored guest in studio.
00:04:05.820
Megan, thank you so much for coming by after doing pretty hard duty today over in the Senate side.
00:04:15.440
That was just a ridiculous exercise they put him through, but he'd handle it with a plum.
00:04:19.940
So, tell me about it because this is a very important, very important nomination for us.
00:04:27.960
Do you think, was he as prepared as you thought as he should be?
00:04:37.040
You can say that a couple of times, but at some point in time, you've got to confront previous, I mean, he said it.
00:04:45.240
The only thing they got him on was, and it was by a Republican, it was Senator Cassidy, who may need to be shorn up.
00:04:52.100
He may need a few phone calls explaining to him.
00:04:57.280
I mean, somebody should explain to him the importance of the Maha movement.
00:05:00.060
You know, it's cut across party lines, and we really do need his vote because he came at him with like a little, like a test on Medicare and Medicaid and the changes that Bobby was going to make to, you know, have crossover and people who qualify for both.
00:05:15.100
And like, this is the kind of question you ask somebody who's been the nominee for four years and who's pushing for change or more money.
00:05:20.480
He's not in there yet, nor did he run on, you know, Medicare reform.
00:05:25.620
So, he got the feeling he was trying to make him look stupid so he could justify his own vote.
00:05:31.360
And finally, Kennedy got to say how he really feels.
00:05:33.840
I don't think it was a response to Cassidy, but to somebody saying, look, this is what I kind of ran on when I ran for president, and this is what Trump selected me for.
00:05:43.040
Maha and toxins all over our environment and what we eat and what we drink and what we put on our furniture.
00:05:48.800
Like, that's the stuff I'm going to be looking at, these conflict of interest.
00:05:53.180
It's going to be Dr. Mehmet Oz to run Medicare.
00:05:59.400
What about answers about how you think he handled the vaccine and not vaccine, anti-vaccine?
00:06:08.640
I think what they're not grasping is that he's not going to ban vaccines for people.
00:06:12.680
He doesn't love mandatory vaccines, and I don't think there are going to be mandates.
00:06:16.260
The 60 that kids need to take now to get in public school?
00:06:19.560
I mean, look, I don't think he's told me a million times I'm not anti-vax.
00:06:25.100
He's got a lot of criticisms of vaccines, which is fine.
00:06:31.080
If he tries to ban them, then people are going to lose their minds.
00:06:35.500
He understands that's not what President Trump wants.
00:06:40.260
I mean, we want to take on the big pharma medical complex.
00:06:44.040
We had Tommy Trupperville sitting in that seat this morning, and I said, of the military-industrial complex, the big tech complex, and pharma-medical complex, which is the most powerful?
00:06:59.880
How can you—I know this is a big belief of yours.
00:07:02.760
How do you take that on if you're Bobby Kennedy and Trump?
00:07:07.460
I mean, just getting him in there will be a huge win because, you know, you look at who is trying to stop it today, Elizabeth Warren, who took almost a million dollars from them just a couple years ago when she ran for president.
00:07:17.820
Bernie Sanders, more than a million dollars when he ran for president.
00:07:20.860
Each of these senators, for the most part, is in bed with big pharma.
00:07:36.520
So it's like there really are very powerful forces trying to stop him.
00:07:42.120
The greatest thing is that he just doesn't care.
00:07:45.100
And that was actually one of the moments that stood out to me today was when Elizabeth Warren tried to get him saying, well, you promise that after you have this job, you won't work for big pharma.
00:08:02.360
So it's so refreshing, first of all, to have somebody who's been antagonizing them his whole life.
00:08:08.360
She was like, well, will you promise that you won't work for like a law firm suing big pharma?
00:08:16.140
No, I'm not going to promise not to sue big pharma.
00:08:20.400
And she tried to spin it like a conflict, like Bobby Kennedy is going to get in there.
00:08:24.160
And what approve vaccines just so playing the long game, he can then get out and join the law firms, suing those vaccine makers and make money.
00:08:36.220
So she was intellectually outmatched, but she was trying to do the bidding of those companies.
00:08:40.040
I don't know the answer to your question, though, Steve, how he's going to actually diminish their influence.
00:08:48.380
One of the ways I know that is I know a lot of people who are in the Wall Street world trying to make money off of big pharma.
00:08:55.060
And to a person, they've all called me to try to dump on him.
00:08:59.400
And try to convince me to get off of supporting him.
00:09:03.440
The question, why you were there front and center today, that people were talking about it, it went viral on the Internet.
00:09:11.380
Well, I support him, and I want people to know I support him.
00:09:14.700
So if it's helpful to anybody to see that, I'm not a kook.
00:09:33.500
I dearly love them, but he's a psychopath predator who lies and cheats and kills baby birds and is responsible for all of the deaths in my family due to addiction.
00:09:47.060
I noticed she didn't say whether they were live chicks that went into the blender.
00:10:03.440
He spent his whole life suing over toxic rivers like the Hudson where I grew up swimming.
00:10:10.960
I wound up being a journalist because I swam in a toxin-riddled Hudson.
00:10:20.580
I think they kind of know that, that this movement has crossed over party lines, so they have
00:10:27.060
When the Wall Street guys call you, what is their biggest thing?
00:10:29.860
Is it a personal foible or is it something policy-wise?
00:10:33.060
They're worried they're going to lose money in all their big pharma investments.
00:10:37.600
That they're worried that their Pfizer stock is going to go down in value because he's not
00:10:43.220
going to just green light all of the drugs and all of the projects, and he's not really
00:10:48.620
big on immunity from lawsuits for these vaccine peddlers.
00:10:53.820
And so, I mean, look what's happening right now with people who are COVID vaccine injured.
00:11:00.280
You got what's Collins left and Fauci left, that whole infrastructure.
00:11:05.540
We met him, and he first started coming to the show with the Anthony Fauci book, the
00:11:11.280
I think we sold 750,000 copies just in the war room.
00:11:14.160
They sold a million and a half because our audience, who's pretty right-wing and conservative,
00:11:19.340
and when he came on, we do Saturdays with two hours.
00:11:22.380
They were mesmerized by this guy, and particularly, they were not fans of Fauci.
00:11:25.820
And he just walked through chapter and verse of what a monster Fauci was.
00:11:29.000
What do you think he does to that apparatus that Collins and Fauci left behind?
00:11:34.420
He was saying today that he's going to pursue radical transparency, and I think we're going
00:11:41.000
In the same way Trump's doing JFK, RFK files and all that, I think he's going to show us
00:11:45.240
every email he can get his hands on within NHS and the Fauci group and FDA.
00:11:51.340
Let's not forget what's going to happen over at FDA, with whom he'll be working very closely.
00:11:59.880
That's why we have an opioid crisis, because they were too in bed with the Sackler family.
00:12:03.920
They refused to say that these opioids were addictive, which they were, Oxycontin.
00:12:10.840
And the FDA was running cover for them, because the guy in charge of it wanted a job with the
00:12:20.120
He's really conscious about those conflicts of interest that really do result in people
00:12:26.000
They kept accusing him of leading to the death of people who didn't take vaccines.
00:12:43.920
Do you think anybody like Cassidy and these others?
00:12:46.580
Because you know Collins and Murkowski probably knows this because they hate Trump.
00:12:55.360
The right to life people are putting, you know, Pence has got money, I think, from Big Pharma.
00:13:02.580
Where do you put this nomination now and what has to happen in your eyes tomorrow in front
00:13:08.060
of really, it's kind of weird they do finance first and then they do.
00:13:11.360
Well, I asked Tuberville because he says on health care, he says that's the thing they
00:13:14.240
did when they first set the whole thing up because there's so much money flows through
00:13:18.080
The finance guys back in 30 or 40 years ago wanted to make sure that they had somebody
00:13:26.320
I know the poor guy has to go through this twice.
00:13:29.180
And tomorrow it could be more brutal because it's the Democrat guys on health care.
00:13:32.960
And I mean, I guess he can get a vote on the floor even if he doesn't technically make
00:13:41.540
I have to tell you, it's not guaranteed that he's getting through.
00:13:45.020
I think that these Republican senators need some pressure.
00:13:48.900
I mean, you're saying, you're calling like you see it.
00:13:52.700
I want him to be confirmed, but I wouldn't bet the House on it.
00:13:55.520
Walking in this morning, I was much more confident than I am today.
00:14:04.740
Tomorrow, though, he's got to represent, right?
00:14:13.160
He can run circles around these senators intellectually.
00:14:17.300
You know, I'll tell you an interesting story about him.
00:14:19.080
He came on my show back when he was banned and part of the disinformation dozen.
00:14:23.800
And we did two hours on vaccines and we did two hours on him and his life.
00:14:28.380
And he talked about growing up Kennedy and one of 10 kids and how his dad, RFK, used to
00:14:36.780
And then at dinner, they'd have to stand up and present three articles.
00:14:40.460
And be able to sort of defend what was in there.
00:14:42.980
So the guys had a lifetime of defending his positions, of being put, you know, under the
00:14:48.440
hot light of, you know, having to be articulate and stand by your views.
00:14:53.680
And then he went into litigation and took on all these companies in his environmental lawyer
00:15:01.120
His voice is an impediment, but it's not a stutter.
00:15:08.700
He told me on the show, some days it's stronger than others.
00:15:13.700
Let's hope he has a better day with the vocal cords tomorrow because he can be really a lot
00:15:18.940
But I think he should come out swinging and really stand up.
00:15:22.400
His best moments today were when he was defending the Maha movement and saying, this is why people
00:15:29.720
And I think he should be honest where he's weak.
00:15:31.840
Like the Medicare thing, like Senator, I don't have all those answers, but I know I'm going
00:15:38.160
I know I'm going to have smart people within NIH who are going to help me understand these
00:15:42.280
things, but I'm being elected or appointed, confirmed, to spearhead a movement that's
00:15:48.520
going to help with childhood health and with everybody's health.
00:15:51.360
And it's going to help people not have to work so hard to get the toxins out of their
00:16:01.540
President Trump thinks very highly of your opinion.
00:16:04.840
Given how important you think this is, should President Trump really jump in here tomorrow
00:16:09.700
and start whipping this vote to make sure that we get the votes?
00:16:13.780
I think I've thought about this a lot because I don't know Trump's feelings about Bobby.
00:16:19.000
You know, I know obviously they struck a political deal where Bobby would come on board and help
00:16:29.660
But I don't, you know, just Trump, is Trump looking at this like I did my part, I nominated
00:16:40.100
But I actually think it would be really helpful to Trump to have him on board and he can always
00:16:44.740
fire him if he sucks, if he goes crazy, if he does a bit of weird stuff.
00:16:49.200
But secondly, I think it would hurt Trump if he doesn't get confirmed because there is
00:16:55.120
You know, it's definitely millions of people that are into this Maha thing.
00:16:58.900
And it's, it caused Democrat crossovers on the vote and he doesn't want to lose them
00:17:09.220
So I think he should actually, I actually think this one is more important than some of the
00:17:18.400
We have to have somebody go in and studs up to that place.
00:17:24.300
And it's the most powerful driving force in this town.
00:17:26.580
If you're going to take this town on and change it, you got to do the biopharmaceutical, medical,
00:17:37.800
You could find somebody who's got more of the Tulsi, Tucker, Glenn Greenwald view of foreign
00:17:44.600
Not that I want Tulsi, I'm just saying there are others who think as she does.
00:17:47.820
Who else thinks as he does and would do to them what he will?
00:17:53.560
Because tomorrow's going to be, folks, tomorrow morning, we're going to have Bobby Kennedy
00:18:12.620
They were saying he's so good on counterterrorism, counterintelligence, two-thirds of what the FBI
00:18:18.600
You know, they're going to try to say Tulsi's not qualified.
00:18:23.720
I don't think they can make that argument on Kash.
00:18:25.580
I think they're going to spend the whole day talking to him about threats of retribution
00:18:29.180
because the Pam Bondi confirmation hearing was a preview of Kash.
00:18:34.020
They were way more interested in Kash than they were in Pam.
00:18:36.920
But they knew they couldn't lay a glove on Pam, so let's go after Kash.
00:18:40.340
So I think we got a preview of what he's going to get.
00:18:43.000
And I'm actually kind of looking forward to seeing what he says.
00:18:45.300
Because Kash is such an energized character, right?
00:18:48.880
And we've heard Trump kind of try to thread the needle on retribution.
00:18:52.660
And you and I have talked many times about how we'd like to see some.
00:18:59.520
Is Tulsi on top of the – we're her biggest – we love her.
00:19:03.960
I try to get her in to be UN over Nikki Haley in the first administration.
00:19:19.180
A colonel now and the lieutenant colonel fought over there, knows the area, knows intel.
00:19:23.780
Now, why do you keep hearing this thing that she's not on top of the material?
00:19:39.200
So that's an obvious way to try to diminish her.
00:19:43.320
I don't mean to play the woman card, but I have to think there's like a little piece of like she's not smart enough.
00:19:58.620
I just kind of feel like to diminish her as not qualified because she's not neck deep in intel is stupid.
00:20:04.380
But the whole point of the Trump appointments is to change things, to do it differently.
00:20:08.500
The fact that she doesn't have the same resume as all those other guys is a plus, not a minus.
00:20:14.780
Like RFKJ, she'll have very smart people in intel around her to help her understand.
00:20:19.400
But you're hiring the philosophy, the person who looks at information differently, who has a different mission than the last guys.
00:20:29.400
It's her overall reluctance to push the military-industrial complex toward war without any pausing, to second-guess some of the intel that she gets fed by a group that may have ulterior motives.
00:20:43.880
What I really am not looking forward to is them calling her a spy and trying to suggest she's –
00:20:53.940
What do you want to see – by the way, the missiles that we shot that night that I opposed, President Trump was very ambivalent.
00:21:00.200
They lied about the intelligence that night back in the first couple of months of Trump.
00:21:13.520
What changes do you feel need to be done at the FBI?
00:21:17.060
I mean, look, everybody who knows says the rank and file, for the most part, are good.
00:21:28.820
I mean, frankly, there's going to have to be some kicking of the tires at all levels just to see what we have.
00:21:33.280
But, I mean, most of the leadership should be decimated.
00:21:37.980
And, honestly, I'd love to see the FBI headquarters moved.
00:21:42.680
Take the brutalist architecture and take it apart brick by brick.
00:21:45.560
I think that building needs to go down to the studs.
00:21:47.720
The whole organization needs to go down to the studs.
00:21:51.880
How are we ever going to trust them unless there's a complete overhaul?
00:21:56.980
Two-thirds is counter-intel, counter-terrorism, and one-third is law enforcement.
00:22:00.680
Do you separate – do you break it up into two things?
00:22:03.680
I don't even – like, do we have to have counter-intel still in the FBI?
00:22:12.240
I mean, we have an organization that can do that.
00:22:15.180
What do you want to see her do at DNI, in Intel?
00:22:23.260
I don't trust – I didn't realize, you know, up until, like, the last five years how driven they all are toward war, toward making that military-industrial complex go out there, and how it's all sort of a cabal.
00:22:38.240
And so I just – I like the fact that she distressed them.
00:22:41.120
If you look back over your Fox career, and particularly for the Iraq war, and compare it to today, because you were a lawyer, I mean, your intelligence is the same.
00:22:50.840
What is the difference now that you've had a great awakening versus when you were at the place that probably was the biggest platform?
00:22:57.980
You know, Roger and those guys were 100 percent in back of it.
00:23:00.080
What do you see today that's different than what you saw then?
00:23:03.780
There was a blind trust in the FBI and the CAA and the Pentagon.
00:23:19.620
And we're still very supportive on the right of cops, for the most part.
00:23:23.200
You know, you've got the libertarians, like my friend John Stossel, who don't have a lot of use for them.
00:23:26.740
But for the most part, Republicans are pro-cop.
00:23:32.420
And for a while there, the FBI was a bunch of cops.
00:23:34.840
And then they got very much into the intel field, as you know, post-9-11.
00:23:40.300
We were very worried about getting bombed again.
00:23:42.480
And then there was just this mission creep that turned them into something other than what they were supposed to be.
00:23:48.300
And you had senior leadership coming out where they could, saying, we've lost control of the mission.
00:23:57.100
Do you actually believe that it's an intel, law enforcement, part national security that thinks that they are like a Praetorian guard?
00:24:04.360
That they really guard what the American empire and the American republic is?
00:24:07.580
And they know better than these passing politicians, whether they're Bernie Sanders AOC types or Donald Trump types?
00:24:25.640
How else do you explain the 51 intelligence agents who signed the letter in coordination with the Biden White House?
00:24:32.460
How else do you get that signed that quickly in coordination with the CIA, the existing CIA leadership,
00:24:48.980
And honestly, like, there's just been too much.
00:24:51.660
Like, the FBI, we never knew it was so politicized.
00:24:55.340
And the Trump presidency really blew that open, where we got to see the texts and the emails about them planning on taking him out.
00:25:02.160
Not to mention what they did in the Mar-a-Lago raid and so on.
00:25:05.520
There's just been too much evidence that they are working for an agenda of their own.
00:25:11.440
And I remember talking to Ron DeSantis when I went out there to interview him.
00:25:21.620
And he had a lot of criticism for a lot of government, but none as strong as he had it for the FBI.
00:25:28.240
And, like, that was the thing he most wanted to report on.
00:25:33.080
Am I going to lose you at the bottom of the hour?
00:25:40.220
They sent the memo out yesterday on freezing all the money.
00:25:44.660
Rachel Madden and these guys up on the ramparts last night, nonstop, bang, bang, bang.
00:25:49.600
Today, they rescind the memo, but don't rescind the – did we blink?
00:25:55.980
Because we're the believer, never retreat, never apologize, put the ban on and go forward.
00:26:01.860
Was this something at the White House on the administrative side that hurt where we're going with the all pedal, no brake?
00:26:22.580
So, I think, based on the fact that there was negative feedback about it, like, when it comes to –
00:26:28.640
Yeah, like disadvantaged groups not getting their money and Medicaid payments not getting accepted at hospitals.
00:26:32.980
They had to do something to reverse what they had done.
00:26:36.660
That's not to suggest it was taken in good faith and being followed to the letter of the law.
00:26:40.720
I think there were a lot of actors out there who saw an opportunity to say chaos was created.
00:26:45.360
But I think Trump was right to just rip off the Band-Aid within 24 hours, get us back to stasis, and this will be forgotten in a day.
00:26:58.820
This is where you're just trying to track the money and stop to track the money.
00:27:02.360
What happens – all those thousands of programs that people say, well, I didn't know we supported that.
00:27:06.140
What happens when you have to balance the budget and you have to go in and make cuts on that?
00:27:09.860
We just got – this was just a memo to say we want to track the money.
00:27:15.360
What happens when you have to cut $200 billion or $250 billion out of this program?
00:27:20.800
This is going to be – this is what I keep telling people.
00:27:22.920
I'm glad we're celebrating, but understand the fights in front of us are going to be of epic proportions.
00:27:28.800
Like when Elon and Vivek – no longer Vivek, but farewell, Vivek.
00:27:38.640
They walked in and said, Silicon Valley, hey, don't assume you have a job.
00:27:48.020
That's doge signaling you that they've got a plan of how to take the personnel down.
00:27:52.440
Well, I – and Vivek was the first casualty of that.
00:28:00.280
But my point is simply that, yeah, that's what Elon's been saying.
00:28:10.260
But look, to those people who worry about it, I say, look at Argentina.
00:28:20.280
Everybody predicted doom and gloom and that there'd be a massive recession.
00:28:34.000
Are you having more fun now doing what you're doing than when you were the big star at Fox?
00:28:43.820
I was like, remember when we thought it was a bad thing that I got fired by NBC?
00:28:47.800
Remember when we thought it was a bad thing that Tucker got fired?
00:28:50.320
Like, remember we used to look at that as a bad development?
00:28:59.940
So, you can get it on podcast anywhere you want for free.

00:29:11.840
Megan Kelly, not in a billion years, I think, at one point in time.
00:29:15.860
In fact, we had the party for Matt Boyle last night.
00:29:18.260
My boy was back here as the bureau chief now, national political editor.
00:29:34.320
And honestly, Steve, it's a pleasure to know you.
00:29:53.020
The television's only meant to indoctrinate the minds.
00:30:02.440
Now the work can finally start on the big issues facing the country.
00:30:05.900
One of the biggest is the national debt and the deficits that drive it.
00:30:13.640
We're just printing money to keep this house of cards going.
00:30:24.600
So many things are out of your control, out of the president's control.
00:30:29.080

00:32:46.660
Brian, amazing today on the law, but I've got to ask you, this memo, the OMB memo,
00:32:53.240
which I thought actually was quite smart of how to send it out.
00:32:56.120
It shows you you want to find out where the cash is going.
00:33:00.240
It's kind of a standard stock thing that all administrations do.
00:33:03.600
It might have been worded a little, you know, tough.
00:33:08.800
But what are your thoughts about the memo and then what happened today,
00:33:20.500
It's interesting because as Caroline Leavitt walked out this morning,
00:33:24.300
just making her way down Pebble Beach, she did stop for a press gaggle.
00:33:29.480
And that was the very first question they asked her.
00:33:32.880
And her answer was, as to expect it now in this very aggressive Caroline Leavitt,
00:33:42.500
Like, it's not that hard to explain who gets the money, where it goes,
00:33:48.960
Because, you know, Steve, the media really took this and they broke it apart.
00:33:53.860
They ran with the narrative and they used, you know, a lot of terms like,
00:33:58.420
well, you're going to, you know, Mills on Wheels and a lot of other organizations
00:34:02.000
are going to, you know, that help millions of people every day are going to run out of money.
00:34:08.380
So I think that that's indicative of what we're going to see from this press secretary.
00:34:14.700
She's exactly what we would expect a press secretary to be under President Trump.
00:34:25.340
Because the day we had Gitmo, we have every day you're getting 10 or 12 major
00:34:33.320
Is this, are we still going to remain since there was, I'm not saying they blinked,
00:34:38.780
Are we still going to get all pedal, no brake, Brian?
00:34:42.400
I think so, Steve, from what I understand, they're going to be going full speed ahead
00:34:52.060
From what I understand, Steve, you're either going to hear from Carolyn Leavitt every day
00:34:58.240
You're not going to have this previous administration where you might go a week
00:35:02.080
without even seeing President Trump, I mean, President Biden, previous administration,
00:35:07.300
and then you have the previous press secretary not really giving any answers.
00:35:12.000
Steve, I spent some time today talking to people who have been in this, covering the White
00:35:18.640
House for numerous years, and they tell me, Brian, we've never seen the press room like
00:35:23.760
We've never seen answers come out of an administration like we see now.
00:35:27.280
So I think it is going to be pedal to the metal, not only on just getting stuff going,
00:35:33.260
but then when we get back in session next week, coming off a three-day, I guess, summit, if you
00:35:42.920
will, down there at Doral, and from my sources tell me that not a whole lot got accomplished
00:35:51.340
So let's see what that looks like next week when they get back into session and President
00:35:56.080
Trump huddles with the powers to be there in the House, and we figure out what we're
00:36:01.280
doing because, you know, that's, we've got to, you know, President Trump can do all he
00:36:06.200
can from here, but we've got to start working on some things in the House and get on the same
00:36:12.580
And, I mean, are we collectively together right now, Steve?
00:36:15.980
I would say for the most part, yes, but that's not enough.
00:36:20.600
We have to be 100 percent behind this agenda, and we'll see how that pans out.
00:36:26.720
I think right now we're closer maybe on policy.
00:36:30.000
Look, there's a big difference on tax and things like that.
00:36:32.300
I'm not sure we're collectively, I had Senator Tupperware, I'm not sure we're collectively
00:36:39.160
And process, folks, is not just people, as you know, Brian, it was just a process story.
00:36:43.760
Process is going to be big here because of the debt, the deficits, the budget we've got
00:36:49.000
to get passed, the one or two reconciliations, just the ability to appropriate and essentially
00:36:57.180
raise the money, you know, in a timely manner, and to make sure we continue to move forward
00:37:04.380
One last thing, Brian, for you, Lake and Riley, the first big bill, President Trump, and he
00:37:09.120
kind of gave a warning to people that weren't in back of this, that, hey, there'll be consequences.
00:37:14.620
But at the same time, it was, I found it quite ironic, on Gitmo, he said on Gitmo, they're
00:37:21.300
going to turn Gitmo, Guantanamo Bay, into a housing for, I think it's 30,000 of the worst
00:37:30.760
Didn't you find it ironic we signed Lake and Riley on the same day that President Trump
00:37:34.440
takes another powerful action to say, I'm getting bad hombres out of this country?
00:37:38.300
Yeah, no, what a powerful thing, Steve, and I'll go a step further.
00:37:44.120
Did you hear him talk about the countries that when he calls them, and he's saying, hey,
00:37:48.380
we're going to, you're going to, you're going to take some of these hardened criminals back
00:37:54.200
I mean, he was very direct, and he got a couple laughs out of the crowd there, but I do think
00:37:59.840
it's symbolic of all that's going on right now, and he's, he means business.
00:38:05.440
I mean, I said this earlier in one of the shows today, you know, America is a safer place
00:38:11.200
when criminals are off the streets, whether or not they're illegals, or they're just, are
00:38:15.100
Americans, I mean, it's a safer place, and I think for once, we have somebody that when
00:38:20.880
they speak, Steve, people listen, no matter if you're a government official here, or you're
00:38:27.480
a foreign dignitary from somewhere else, they're listening to President Trump, and the law
00:38:32.860
is the law, and today was a great law that President Trump signed into act.
00:38:40.060
Brian Glenn, fantastic, great you're down there, social media, where do people follow you,
00:38:44.300
because you're putting stuff up all day, between doing the hits on the shows, it's
00:38:48.000
so great to see you down there, I don't know how we're going to split you in two, and use
00:38:51.720
your back on Capitol Hill with all the important stuff that's going on in the House, but somehow
00:38:55.660
we'll figure it out, yeah, well, you can find me at Brian Glenn TV, I'm trying to put up
00:39:01.740
as much stuff as I can, Steve, between the cold weather, draining your phone battery, and
00:39:05.800
everything else, because it all happens right behind me, along the Pebble Beach, we've got
00:39:10.560
a lot of people coming in and out, so we try to grab as many interviews, and as much content
00:39:14.700
as possible, so Steve, I appreciate you having me on today, and hopefully we've got some great
00:39:20.800
four years ahead, right here at the White House.
00:39:25.100
Well, if nothing else, Brian, it will be exciting, must-see TV, thank you, Brian Glenn, appreciate
00:39:34.360
Also, Bobby Kennedy, I know the White House, I'm sure tonight, and the number for folks,
00:39:40.480
202-224-3121, I have to agree with Megyn Kelly about Senator Cassidy, and I think right
00:39:48.440
there, you're seeing the, with Bobby Kennedy, if you count Murkowski and Collins, because
00:39:53.980
you just never can count on them, because they're essentially Democrats, and Mitch McConnell,
00:39:58.180
because of the revenge tour, you can't lose anybody, J.D.'s the tiebreaker with that, almost
00:40:05.380
lost Tillis the other day, almost lost Tillis, didn't happen, but on Friday, people should know
00:40:11.000
behind the scenes, there was some movement, because that got a little jiggy.
00:40:15.080
You're not going to be able to lose anybody, Cassidy, others, how it gets voted out of
00:40:20.940
committee, we have to see, Bobby Kennedy for round two tomorrow.
00:40:24.640
For tomorrow, folks, it's going to be, you know, we're going to have Cash, Patel, you're
00:40:30.620
going to have Tulsi Gabbard, and Bobby Kennedy all throughout the day, and it'll be quite
00:40:35.900
intense in the morning, we'll be cutting back and forth between the two.
00:40:39.320
Go to War Room Films, you can still get Cash's government gangsters, you might want to see
00:40:47.100
He might get asked a couple of three questions about the book and all of it, but it's right
00:40:51.780
now, and this gets back to like the memo, President Trump's winning everywhere, he spread
00:40:57.560
eagle everywhere, right, and, you know, kind of spread eagle the field, so that they don't
00:41:03.800
know which way to kind of go, last night, you can see Matt, and tonight, they're going
00:41:08.540
to spike the football, tonight, they're going to say, hey, we pushed back, and they collapsed.
00:41:13.300
This is why, to me, it's just march forward, you're hitting it all, you're hitting on all
00:41:17.320
cylinders, you're doing great things, the country is excited, the polling's been good,
00:41:23.080
people know you got a, were dealt a very bad hand.
00:41:26.940
I just hope that this doesn't come down to, hey, even on this memo, which was basically
00:41:32.120
a warning to the different departments, don't be sending out cash, I believe where this came
00:41:36.560
from is President Trump's been signing, he's been signing these executive orders and taking
00:41:41.500
executive actions, whether it's World Health Organization, the Green New Deal, we showed
00:41:47.600
you the headline in the Financial Times the other day, $300 billion, I think, unspent from,
00:41:53.980
you know, what he calls Green New Scam Deals, he wants to use that to reallocate to, you
00:42:00.220
know, to the border wall, to border security, maybe his economic program, his theory of the
00:42:05.580
case in the unified executive is impoundment, that he believes that the appropriations process,
00:42:11.140
which is part of essentially the Constitution and the order of what comes out in the House,
00:42:17.180
the ability to, all revenue generation, all taxes have to come out of the House, spending
00:42:21.380
really has to come out of the House, that he has the ability, that's a ceiling, has the
00:42:25.680
ability to go in and kind of grab back, they counter with, there's no line item veto.
00:42:29.960
These are massive separation of powers issues, these are massive, I think, constitutional issues,
00:42:38.200
My point, when you put out a memo, even if in hindsight, people say, hey, there's some
00:42:42.840
questions, some loose language, you just move forward, because this is the testing period.
00:42:50.660
And they're only going to get more, you know, innervated.
00:42:54.100
Right now, it's been very tough for them to find a hill to rally around, what's called a
00:43:07.420
Maybe there's a little more coordination, et cetera.
00:43:10.100
On the Doge side, about the buyout, that's what happens in corporate America all the
00:43:15.420
I understand there's more regulations, more rules with federal employees, but I think
00:43:19.880
it shows they're putting a shot across the administrative state's bow.
00:43:24.880
They're saying, hey, if you don't want to come back to work, et cetera, and we can't
00:43:28.380
guarantee you a job because we're going to be deconstructing the administrative state
00:43:32.540
and some of these bureaus, some of these departments may not work.
00:43:35.980
I think Elon said it one time, there are 466 departments or bureaus or agencies in the
00:43:47.360
I'm sure he hasn't finished the analysis, but that's directionally where he's going.
00:43:54.940
When Vivek was on Jesse Walters the other night and some of these other shows, when they
00:44:01.200
He says, listen, I had a more of a constitutional, legal way of going after the deconstruct the
00:44:06.600
administrative state and getting these changes at cost.
00:44:12.900
He looks at it as both a kind of a cost cutting or taking things down.
00:44:16.220
He's been very, you know, very upfront about that.
00:44:20.220
That memo, and I would admit it's not the traditional thing you see kind of come through
00:44:24.980
the staff secretary, but it was out there that I wouldn't pull back either because I
00:44:29.600
think directionally you're showing Rachel matter last time when she started, there was
00:44:33.520
a 28 minute, I think opening segment, the first 10 minutes, she's just in complete meltdown
00:44:44.260
And I hope you saw as the exercise where all this money goes.
00:44:50.400
This is, I think, shows you the scale of Leviathan.
00:45:05.300
He basically foreshadowed, hey, here's where we're going with this.
00:45:10.180
And we look at this as, as I said, money and billets, billets, personnel and cash flow,
00:45:21.520
Caroline Levitt, I think, has been fantastic today.
00:45:28.580
The memo's rescinded, but not the facts of the memo.
00:45:32.160
And we want those departments and agencies to understand you're not to spend.
00:45:41.420
Overwhelming demand for modern monetary theory.
00:45:44.560
The sixth and the latest installment of the end of the dollar empire.
00:45:50.500
We've had some pretty sophisticated people, as you can imagine, with the worm getting a little higher profile,
00:45:54.940
looking into the worm and watching our content.
00:45:57.120
And they're sitting there going, we're amazed that a middle class and working class MAGA audience would be interested in this.
00:46:04.580
They want to understand how the system works because they can't change the system until they understand how it works.
00:46:10.180
And we've got our way to show capital markets, geopolitics, and everything from the deck plates up with the precinct story of politics in America.
00:46:31.900
I want to warn you of a huge change that could be coming to our money and our bank accounts.
00:46:37.200
First, think back to 9-11, shortly after the government pushed through the Patriot Act.
00:46:41.700
This gave the government power to spy on innocent Americans by monitoring our phone and email and tracking our movement across the Internet.
00:46:49.200
Now, Jim Rickards, editor of the independent financial newsletter Strategic Intelligence and New York Times bestselling author, is warning about a coming event that could elevate this governmental surveillance to a terrifying new level.
00:47:03.260
In fact, some of the guests I've had on The War Room believe that the government will soon expand their powers to track our every move.
00:47:10.660
If we say the wrong things on social media, donate to the wrong causes, buy firearms, or even vote MAGA, the government may be able to shut us out of our bank accounts.
00:47:21.680
I can't say for sure if this will happen, but it's an interesting and dire warning.
00:47:27.200
Fortunately, Jim Rickards, an American patriot and friend of mine, has made it his mission to educate us on what he believes is coming and how to protect yourself from the possibility of programmable money.
00:47:39.520
Watch Jim's warning video now, before it's censored like I've been in the past.
00:47:47.320
That's RickardsWarRoom.com now to see the video.

Also, one thing on Birch Gold, you can get how to invest in gold in the age of Trump, in the Trump era.
00:48:01.720
The best way, I think the easiest way to do that is just take your phone, text Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N at 989898 and get that free with IRA, 401k, all these other pamphlets and information brochures that they have.
00:48:18.120
Or you just go to BirchGold.com slash Bannon and get all of it.
00:48:22.180
Make sure you make contact and start to build a relationship with Philip Patrick and the team.
00:48:27.940
So the guys at BirchGold, look, we've got work ahead of us.
00:48:37.820
So he's the EPA, head of the EPA, which is a huge win, a huge win.
00:48:45.560
And I think Bobby Kennedy gave as good as he got today.
00:48:50.340
Bobby Kennedy goes again tomorrow with health, really the Health and Human Services Committee over in the Senate.
00:49:02.080
Get Mike Davis or the guys at Article 3 or Grace Chung and the Bill Blaster.
00:49:08.860
Make sure that you're most efficient, effective possible.
00:49:11.220
So we've got some – we've definitely got some work to do on this.
00:49:17.720
You get Tulsi with DNI to be Reckless Partner as she runs – be Director of National Intelligence.
00:49:27.480
You have to put guys on those, particularly people like Cassidy.
00:49:30.020
And the folks down there, we have a big audience in Louisiana.
00:49:40.840
I don't know if Bobby should be prepared to answer those or not.
00:49:43.700
But tomorrow he should assume that they're going to be coming and they're going to be rolling hard on him.
00:49:48.480
So tomorrow, another day, we've got to get Bobby in.
00:49:54.260
I want to give a thank you to all, like the Warren Posse and the folks that showed up today to support Bobby Kennedy in the room.
00:50:01.880
I think we're going to try to get Mary Holland here from Children's Health Defense in the next hour.
00:50:12.820
A bunch of breaking developments in the White House on other stories we're covering there.
00:50:19.640
One thing that's becoming self-evident from Senator Tuberville's visit, right now there's not an agreement on a process.
00:50:27.180
But one thing there is an agreement on is that the deficits are not going to be radically cut, at least for a while.
00:50:37.800
Scott Besson said he'll figure out a way to finance it.
00:50:40.660
One thing you can rest assured of is that they're going to be looking for tax revenue, the IRS particularly, although they're getting tons of agents cut.
00:50:47.860
And President Trump eventually wants to get rid of all personal income tax one day.
00:50:55.380
He's making, you know, no tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, no tax on overtime.
00:51:02.280
But for right now, Tax Network USA, if you get a letter from the IRS, do not put it in a drawer.
00:51:07.900
Just putting it in a drawer doesn't stop how it's metastasizing.
00:51:11.520
The penalty, the fees, the interest rates, all of it.
00:51:18.560
Go to TNUSA.com, put in Bannon, you get a discount.
00:51:24.580
If they can help you, they will tell you after asking you some questions and filling out a couple simple information forms.
00:51:30.780
They will tell you if they can help represent you and help go make a deal with the IRS.
00:51:37.840
If not, you know then, hey, I've got to do this on my own or find another firm, and then you can think about making that call.
00:51:43.620
Don't make the call to the IRS until you talk to the guys at Tax Network USA, TNUSA.com slash Bannon.
00:51:51.620
One thing about medicine, the Chinese Communist Party is taking the high ground or trying to take the high ground on not just artificial intelligence but also social media.
00:52:05.060
Everybody's talking right now about Silicon Valley may need to battle another $500 billion into artificial intelligence.
00:52:10.580
One thing I tell you, we're drawing closer and closer to a conflict because the Chinese Communist Party is already in a conflict with us.
00:52:20.040
They will tell you right up front that they are in an unrestricted war, a people's war, an unrestricted war against the foreign devils.
00:52:29.720
Jace Medical will get you over the hurdle of the supply chain still being controlled by the Chinese Communist Party.
00:52:35.920
And active pharmaceutical ingredients, API, is all controlled by them, even though some of the generics are made in India.
00:52:44.340
You want to get ahead of that, Jace Medical, go to jacemedical.com.
00:52:47.920
Dr. Sean Rollins and the team have worked out a system that you can order, get all your medicines.
00:52:54.380
You don't have to worry about it coming from the Chinese Communist Party through their supply chains.
00:52:58.600
You can have it, have it in an emergency in case it gets shut down, in case we have a shooting war.
00:53:04.920
To reset the big firestorm today, President Trump doing positive, the Lake and Riley Act, it's a big ceremony at the White House.
00:53:13.440
He also announced he's turning Gitmo over to a 30,000, I think, bed facility for bad hombres so they can get them out of the country and get them down there.
00:53:21.900
And where they can figure out what they're going to do with them, maybe to get them to their home country to serve out the rest of their jail sentences.
00:53:29.420
The memo that really set the template for, hey, we want everything to stop.
00:53:34.380
And one of the things that I think people learned is how far the federal government is in everybody's life.
00:53:42.660
The list, the amount of money, I think it was $3 trillion of cash going through the system, $3 trillion.
00:53:47.000
The left, I don't understand, President Trump kind of is getting a feel for how to deconstruct the administrative state.
00:53:53.660
He's sending out executive orders every day they're on.
00:53:58.680
Next hour, we're going to go back to the White House for our own Natalie Winters.
00:54:20.920

You guys, you can get the one for $9.98 if you've never tried a MyPillow.
00:55:24.280
