On today's show, President Trump sits down with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and former Vice President Joe Biden (D-Massachusetts) to discuss the latest in the Trump administration, including the latest on the administration nominations, the Iran deal, and much more.
00:00:00.000Pretty gosh darn bullish. Their numbers, their chances have been rising. Tulsi Gabbard specifically to be the national intel director. She's up to get this a 92 percent chance. A week ago she was close to 52 percent. But as some Republican senators have come out like Susan Collins in support of her, her chances have gone through the roof. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to be the HHS secretary. He's up to 82 percent. Again, that is also higher than it was a week ago. At this particular point, the two most controversial picks remaining for Donald Trump seem to
00:00:29.980see their prospects going through the roof at this hour. What about the field, as it were? What about the field? So the remaining picks, chance of Trump's picks being confirmed, the average besides Gabbard and RFK, you can't really get much higher than 99 percent. So look, there's a chance, I guess, you know, a one in a million basically or a one in 100 in this particular case that one of the remaining picks do not get confirmed. But the bottom line at this hour is RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard looked likely to be confirmed and the rest of the field
00:00:59.900looked really, really, really likely to be confirmed. So in the end, although we're not there yet, but imagine for a second we were at the end here looking back on all of Donald Trump's nominations, some of which were very controversial. How did he do in terms of getting them through?
00:01:15.020Yeah, you know, Matt Gaetz obviously decided. War Room is Tuesday for February, the year of our Lord, 2025. We're going to go to the White House. There's a press conference going on with Bibi Netanyahu and the president of the United States. Let's go ahead and take it to the White House. We're going to watch this in the entire hour.
00:01:29.900We'll get it. And some people want to put it out of their memory, but we're not going to ever let that happen. It was a horrible day, October 7th. That was a horrible, that was a horrible period of time. And a lot of people like to pretend it didn't happen. It happened. It's a big group of people that like to pretend it didn't happen. Like the Holocaust didn't happen. Same mindset.
00:01:51.900And now we're going to we're going to get this thing wrapped up and we're going to get it done. We're also dealing, I think, very successfully with Russia, Ukraine. We're going to hopefully get that one done at some point in the not too distant future. That's a complex problem also.
00:02:06.900But we we solve problems. We'll you know, when I left, we had no problem. There was no Ukraine and Russia fighting. There was no October 7th. There was nothing. And some very poor leadership led to a lot of problems and a lot of death.
00:02:21.140And it's a shame. But we'll put it out. We'll put out the fires. We have a lot of fires, but we'll put them out.
00:02:26.380Mr. President, do you still support the Palestinian state like the peace plan you presented in January 2020? Is this plan still on the table?
00:02:36.820Well, a lot of plans change with time and a lot of death has occurred since I left and now came back. This death occurred not while I was here, but while somebody else was here.
00:02:47.860It shouldn't have happened. They shouldn't have allowed it to happen. It would have never happened. And that includes Russia. Ukraine would have never happened.
00:02:54.860Not even a little bit, not even a chance. But now we are faced with a situation that's different in some ways, better and in some ways, worse. But we're faced with a very complex and difficult situation. But we'll solve. We'll solve the problem.
00:03:10.480What is the country that you expect to get refugees from Gaza out of Gaza? If not Jordan, Egypt, what other countries you think might accept Palestinians from Gaza?
00:03:20.140Well, I think Jordan and Egypt will. I know they've spoken about it with you, and they say they're not going to accept. I say they will. But I think other countries will accept also. I think that Gaza maybe is a demolition site right now. If you look at Gaza, it's all I mean, there's hardly a building standing and the ones that are going to collapse. You can't live in Gaza right now. And I think we need another location. I think it should be a location that's going to make people happy.
00:03:46.760You look over the decades. It's all death in Gaza. This has been happening for years. It's all death. If we can get a beautiful area to resettle people permanently in nice homes and where they can be happy and not be shot, not be killed, not be knifed to death like what's happening in Gaza.
00:04:05.400And right now you have in Gaza. And right now you have in Gaza a very dangerous situation in terms of explosives all over the place in terms of tunnels that nobody knows who's in the tunnel. The whole thing is a mess.
00:04:17.180And I think that if we can resettle and I believe we can do it in areas where the leaders currently say, no, I mean, I've been saying that with Mexico having to do with the border and all of the things.
00:04:30.440And you saw what happened. Ten thousand soldiers and they're going to do a good job. I really believe that. And I believe Canada is going to do a good job also.
00:04:38.140They said the same thing. And then they did something much different than what you were hearing. This is a very, very difficult situation, but we're going to get it solved.
00:04:48.600I don't think people should be going back to Gaza. I think that Gaza has been very unlucky for them. They've lived like hell. They lived like you're living in hell.
00:04:57.320Gaza is not a place for people to be living. And the only reason they want to go back, and I believe this strongly is because they have no alternative. What's the alternative? Go where? There's no other alternative.
00:05:07.840If they had an alternative, they'd much rather not go back to Gaza and live in a beautiful alternative that's safe.
00:05:24.780Mr. President, you said, what would you ?
00:05:29.240It would be my hope that we could do something really nice, really good where they wouldn't want to return.
00:05:34.900why would they want to return the place has been hell it's been one of the meanest one of the
00:05:40.660meanest toughest places on earth and right now it's it's i've seen every picture from every angle
00:05:49.380better than if i were there and nobody can live there you can't live there so if we can build if
00:05:55.140we can build them through a massive amounts of money supplied by other people very rich nations
00:06:02.500and they'll be they're willing to supply it if we can build something for them in one of the
00:06:07.700countries and it could be jordan and it could be egypt it could be other countries and you could
00:06:11.700build four or five or six areas it doesn't have to be one area but you take certain areas and you build
00:06:18.180really good quality housing like a beautiful town like someplace where they can live and not die
00:06:26.260because gaza is a guarantee that they're going to end up dying the same thing's going to happen again
00:06:31.060it's happened over and over again and it's going to happen again as sure as you're standing there
00:06:36.420peter so uh i hope that we could do something where they wouldn't want to go back who would want to go
00:06:42.820back they've experienced nothing but death and destruction
00:06:54.660well i don't think they're going to tell me no
00:07:00.100i think they're going to tell biden no and i think they're going to tell
00:07:03.220other people so you think it will happen at the end i think there's a good chance
00:07:06.980yeah how many people are you thinking about all of them i mean we're talking about probably a million
00:07:12.580seven people million seven maybe a million eight but i think all of them i think they'll be resettled
00:07:18.260in areas where they can live a beautiful life and not be worried about dying every day
00:07:29.620mr president do you support um building settlements
00:07:33.140settlements back in gaza in the next years say it building settlements jesus elements back in gaza
00:07:38.900in the next year do you support this i don't see it happening it's too dangerous for people nobody can
00:07:44.100go there it's too dangerous nobody wants to be there warriors don't want to be there soldiers
00:07:49.220don't want to be there how can you have people go back you're saying go back into gaza now though
00:07:53.860the same thing's going to happen it'll only be death the best way to do it is you go out and you get
00:07:59.300beautiful open areas with the sunlight coming through and that's not what i mean something
00:08:07.780they are not going to want to go back to gaza
00:08:09.780prime minister what is your message to the families of the hostages that look at this deal
00:08:14.180they're worried that this deal won't go through what do you say to them at this moment same message
00:08:18.740i said from the beginning of the war we'll get them out get them back we got over 70 percent close
00:08:24.740to 75 percent of the people who everybody believed will not get out we got them in successive deals
00:08:31.060and most recently with the help of president trump we're not going to give up on any of them and we're
00:08:35.460not going to give up on our other war aims hamas is not going to beat in gaza and we're going to get
00:08:41.140everyone back and you would not have how optimistic are you about reach about reaching phase two of
00:08:47.140the ceasefire how optimistic about that happening well we're going to try that's one of the reasons
00:08:52.100one of the things we're going to talk about here and if we if we you know when israel and the united
00:08:58.420states work together and president trump and i work together you know the chances go up a lot it's
00:09:05.380when when we don't work together israel and the united states don't work together that creates
00:09:10.660problems when the other side sees daylight between us and occasionally in the last few years to put it
00:09:16.580in mind they saw their lives then it's more difficult when we cooperate isn't it the right
00:09:23.620chances are once and for all say it now that iran is so weak isn't it the right time to eat
00:09:30.020to get the nuclear facilities once and for all so you say iran is so weak i appreciate you saying that
00:09:35.860they're not weak they're very strong right now and we're not we're not going to allow them to have
00:09:40.420a nuclear weapon it's very simple you know i signed a very strong proclamation iran was in big trouble
00:09:47.620when i left they were broke they didn't have money for hamas they didn't have any money for hezbollah
00:09:53.140you had no problem october 7th could have never happened when i left october 7th could have never
00:09:59.140happened and frankly russia and ukraine as i said could never have happened they became very strong very
00:10:05.140fast they sold massive amounts of oil to china and everybody else who would not buy the
00:10:10.340oil when i was pregnant because we said don't buy the oil and they became very rich very quickly
00:10:16.420but they're not weak they're not weak they're strong doesn't mean they won't be weak but you know what
00:10:22.340we just don't want them to have a nuclear weapon they can't have a nuclear
00:10:25.540you know what he wants what do you what do you know about anything
00:10:42.980no it could be other places too there are many people that have reached out many countries many
00:10:48.340leaders of countries that have reached out that would like to participate in that doesn't have to
00:10:52.820be jordan and egypt but i think it would be also them
00:10:59.780your relationship with mr netanyahu knew ups and downs how would you describe it
00:46:19.780OK, we're taking a short break. Let me give you the lineup.
00:46:23.320We got Rabbi Pesek wrote an amazing piece about what President Trump's talking about, that, hey, maybe Gaza is not right for folks to go back to.
00:46:34.020We got Frank Gaffney to give us the geostrategic insights about what's going on.
00:46:39.440Bibi is in the Oval Office with the president of the United States, and they're having a fireside chat.
00:46:45.480Our own Brian Glenn is in the East Room, where a historic press conference is going to take place momentarily.
00:46:53.580We're going to do Frank. We're going to do the rabbi.
00:46:56.280We're going to do Brian. We're going to do a press conference.
00:47:00.220All in the late afternoon and early evening edition of the War Room.
00:47:08.320What if he had the brightest mind in the War Room, delivering critical financial research every month?
00:47:14.800Steve Bannon here. War Room listeners know Jim Rickards. I love this guy.
00:47:18.960He's our wise man, a former CIA, Pentagon and White House advisor with an unmatched grasp of geopolitics and capital markets.
00:47:26.080Jim predicted Trump's Electoral College victory exactly 312 to 226, down to the actual number itself.
00:47:35.980Now he's issuing a dire warning about April 11th, a moment that could define Trump's presidency and your financial future.
00:47:43.580His latest book, Money GPT, exposes how AI is setting the stage for financial chaos, bank runs at lightning speeds, algorithm-driven crashes, and even threats to national security.
00:47:55.060Right now, War Room members get a free copy of Money GPT when they sign up for Strategic Intelligence.
00:48:01.820This is Jim's flagship financial newsletter, Strategic Intelligence.
00:48:36.980We are live here in the East Room awaiting President Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
00:48:42.700Now, they just spoke briefly one-on-one, and they had just a really quick meeting.
00:48:49.300But I've got to tell you something, Steve.
00:48:50.980Watching the procession move into the White House, all of the pageantry that was built around the Prime Minister coming here, Steve,
00:48:59.280is something that I've heard a lot of people who have been at this White House have never seen, the welcoming of a foreign dignitary as we saw here today for the Prime Minister.
00:49:08.640So, certainly, President Trump is rolling out the red carpet, if you will, for these talks.
00:49:13.300Now, as you know, this is the first time that President Trump has met with a foreign leader since the second term.
00:49:20.280And we've got a good – what you're looking at right now is a packed room inside here, Steve.
00:49:25.780I would probably say there's probably close to maybe 300 different media outlets just in this room alone,
00:49:33.660not counting the ones that are outside that could not have access to this room.
00:49:38.260A lot of foreign press, a lot of Israeli press, a lot of questions on whether or not, hey, these talks,
00:49:44.020if we can come up with a solution that everyone agrees on, Steve.
00:49:48.020But we'll keep you updated on what's happening here in the East Room here at the White House.
00:49:51.680Okay. You hang right there, by the way.
00:49:53.800A real hat tip, and I want to thank the White House comms team for letting Real America's Voice.
00:49:59.200In the war room, in the room, we have our own Brian Glenns over there.
00:51:27.940Egypt has been refusing to allow them in.
00:51:30.220And that's actually a violation of international law.
00:51:32.220But beyond that, Stephen, this is what I lay out in my piece, in my column that was in the Jerusalem Post yesterday.
00:51:38.180And you can find it also up on Real Clear Politics in the World section from yesterday's post.
00:51:43.380And I lay out there that this goes all the way back to the founding of the state of Israel.
00:51:47.380When the U.N. decided on the partition plan in November of 1947 and had the Arab countries accepted the partition plan of what is today Israel into a Jewish state and a Palestinian state, the original two-state solution, not a single Arab would have been displaced.
00:52:05.360It was the Arab armies themselves, there's so much evidence in history, the Arab leadership themselves, who called on the Arabs to evacuate so that they could destroy, so that the Holy War could destroy this brand-new Jewish state.
00:52:19.660They lost that war and ended up with all these refugees in the Gaza Strip and in Judea and Samaria.
00:52:26.900Egypt ruled the Gaza Strip when that war ended in 1948.
00:52:31.580And for 19 years, the Egyptians governed the Gaza Strip.
00:52:37.000They did not allow the Gazan refugees there to move to mainland Egypt to rebuild their lives, money that was set aside in the U.N. to help them rebuild their lives.
00:52:46.740The Egyptians never spent a bit of it.
00:52:49.060They didn't even let them emigrate anywhere else.
00:52:50.980And then when Israel made peace with Egypt in 1979 at the Camp David Accords with Carter, when Israel agreed to give back everything that they had conquered in 1967, including the Gaza Strip, Egypt refused to take the Gaza Strip back from them.
00:53:07.180But they ruled it for 19 years and did nothing to help resettle these refugees.
00:53:10.960And now, fast forward to today, we now realize after Israel went into Rafa and was cleaning out Rafa and took over the border between Gaza and Egypt, we discovered all these tunnels.
00:53:24.240And we discovered that the Egyptians were actually allowing all the weaponry and all the arms into Hamas all these years.
00:53:30.620If anyone bears responsibility, both historically and currently and according to international law, for the plight of the Gazans, it's Egypt.
00:53:39.680So when Donald Trump says that Egypt should take these people, he's not just throwing out an idea.
00:53:50.140And frankly, as he said today, sitting with Netanyahu right before they went into the Oval Office, taking a few questions, Gaza's unlivable right now.
00:54:18.580My question for Rabbi Pesach when we come back is, hey, some of the Gazans, I think maybe a lot of them say, we don't want to leave, right?
00:55:37.520This is a very special thing we're doing for the War Room to give thanks to all of you for this year.
00:55:41.780We're supporting this great show that everybody got the word out, everybody, when we needed the word out there the most and still getting the word out.
00:56:19.080Is your risk high that an IRS agent is about to show up at your home over unpaid taxes or unfiled returns or that the IRS is about to freeze your bank accounts?
00:56:30.440Look, understanding your IRS risk level helps you decide how quickly you need to act.
00:57:56.620I'm a sacred human really trying to fill this gap with quality supplements.
00:58:01.580And, of course, the beef liver being our flagship product.
00:58:04.360For those who don't know, beef liver is loaded with highly bioavailable ingredients such as vitamin A, B12, zinc, CoQ10, etc.
00:58:14.200And because it is 100% grass-fed and natural, your body is able to absorb these nutrients far better than taking any other synthetic multivitamin or any other synthetic vitamin in general.
00:58:26.720So, we have some other amazing products.
00:58:28.800But if you'd like to check us out, you can go to sacredhumanhealth.com.
