00:02:56.780 is i don't know elon's doing some great work you know i'm a huge supporter of uh the deconstruction

00:03:03.920 administrative state and what elon's doing in um in doge i'm a big supporter of that i hope

00:03:09.440 and my prayer is is that these cuts are real i wish him a lot of luck but i am not a transhumanist

00:03:15.940 i'm very anti-oligarch there's certain things about the oligarchs not just elon but also the

00:03:21.620 oligarchs that uh um you know the the bezos and zuckerberg particularly all these guys don't support 0.98

00:03:29.700 us and people have to understand the cnn audience understand they don't support maga zuckerberg went on

00:03:34.700 joe rogan said how big a trump fan he was you're not convinced no he's a criminal what are you talking

00:03:40.200 about he put up 500 million dollars to uh to steal the election 2020

00:03:44.400 and of course mark zuckerberg has not been charged nor convicted with any crimes and certainly nothing

00:03:52.400 to do with the imagined steal uh of the 2020 election although it is a conspiracy theory that's

00:03:58.380 often repeated in maga circles yeah one it used to be part of what trump pushed until he and zuckerberg

00:04:04.600 formed this detente i guess done on zuckerberg's part really um but what he said there they don't

00:04:10.340 they're not maga they don't understand maga that's that's interesting to me in terms of what this

00:04:15.600 movement looks like yeah and look i mean one of the fascinating things i think about steve bannon is he

00:04:20.680 has this show that broadcasts uh for four hours live every day i don't know if you want to try that

00:04:26.260 it's tough going uh but uh and and it's everywhere i mean it comes preload the channel comes preloaded

00:04:34.360 on many televisions that are sold in this country today any smart tv basically so he's reaching

00:04:39.320 hundreds of thousands potentially millions of people and he didn't hold back as he was talking

00:04:43.660 about what he describes as oligarchs here in the u.s

00:04:46.820 you can tell president trump doesn't totally trust the oligarchs we're putting in very tough

00:04:54.120 antitrust people into the justice department and to the alphabet agencies and they and they have

00:04:59.380 the on war room or a huge platform look i'm a i'm not a conservative right i'm a republican because

00:05:05.160 i've registered i'm really a populist national so as you see here today these are working class and

00:05:09.980 middle class people and they don't want the concentration of power and by the way those

00:05:14.120 oligarchs and people at cnn are saying just like they've turned on you now right they abandon they've 0.50

00:05:19.980 abandoned the progressive left they will abandon us in the same thing they seek power right now

00:05:25.540 their their feeling is they can see the math and they see that we have a building coalition so

00:05:31.660 they're with us but only temporarily i gotta go that's fascinating to me because just to to hear

00:05:38.200 that from someone who was at the white house on day one of trump's last term and then today you know

00:05:44.420 mark zuckerberg was here in washington today at the inauguration we saw all of the ceos sitting by

00:05:49.420 trump and as he was taking the oath of office he's i'm super skeptical and i mean one thing does ring

00:05:56.040 true there that that that it just occurred to me as he was speaking that zuckerberg and and twitter at

00:06:03.340 the time they all banned trump they kicked trump off their platforms and many would say rightfully so

00:06:08.360 after january 6 in in 2021 just as biden was coming into office if you look at the dates the last

00:06:15.820 month um when trump was about to come into office it was almost around the exact same date that

00:06:21.480 zuckerberg announced that they were getting rid of fact checks so when you see this point of of these

00:06:26.240 companies trying to adjust to whatever administration is coming in he certainly does have a point there

00:06:31.320 yeah and it's something we've seen other ceos do as well i mean they announced the changes on

00:06:36.820 facebook on fox yes yeah very intentional yeah it's an answer certainly not on on the steve

00:06:42.800 banan show it is fascinating donio sullivan on the ground reporting i'd love to see it

00:06:48.200 this is the primal scream of a dying regime pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on this

00:06:59.380 people i got a free shot all these networks lying about the people the people have had a belly full

00:07:06.540 of it i know you don't like hearing that i know you try to do everything in the world to stop that

00:07:10.360 but you're not going to stop it it's going to happen and where do people like that go to share

00:07:14.580 the big line mega media i wish in my soul i wish that any of these people had a conscience ask yourself

00:07:23.540 what is my task and what is my purpose if that answer is to save my country this country will

00:07:31.400 be saved war room here's your host stephen k bannett

00:19:23.260 yo okay jane zirkle we've got some uh we've got some by the way we're going to cut to the main uh

00:19:34.060 the main stage at cpac we understand because of security etc the vp may be a little delayed uh so

00:19:41.640 we'll go by the way our great friend from hungary blaz orban now i want to make sure everyone understands

00:19:46.820 you're not actually related to the great prime minister correct no i'm not but i'm working with

00:19:51.940 him yes you're you're you're you're you're the you're you're his uh you're a strategist correct

00:19:56.200 somehow somehow hang on for one second i'm going to go jane zirkle jane i think we've given you combat

00:20:02.820 duty today this is the second group of j6ers but this is the original you guys are the guys originally 1.00

00:20:09.880 in the gulag in washington dc correct that's right tell us who you are what you were charged with

00:20:15.720 and were you treated fairly by the justice department and bop go ahead at all my name is

00:20:21.860 pete schwartz i went to uh the maximum security penitentiaries i got sentenced to 14 years never

00:20:27.540 set foot in the capitol building but they went ahead and charged me anyhow and then uh right before

00:20:32.260 three days before trump's pardons my case got completely overturned but they wouldn't let me

00:20:36.920 speak to my lawyers or anything like that so i still sat in prison until the day trump pardoned us

00:20:41.660 and uh it's great i'm so glad to be out was that was that was that a pretty bold and heroic move

00:20:47.080 of president trump because the pressure even in the republican party was to not do any j6ers at all

00:20:53.200 he did everybody it was the right thing to do i mean it was absolutely why was it the right thing

00:20:57.960 was it the right thing to do because number one promises made promises kept number two we were

00:21:04.760 unfairly charged even the people who there's been this left-wing narrative talking about violent

00:21:09.440 non-violent and that's all a false narrative it's left-wing stuff because a lot of the people

00:21:13.640 charged with violence weren't guilty of violence i mean when you go to dc and you're charged with

00:21:17.520 something and you're a trump supporter you're getting convicted it doesn't matter what you're

00:21:20.760 charged with doesn't matter who you are you are going down so it's absolutely the right because

00:24:37.580 they uh took the whole constitutional rights away from us because they said that everything that

00:24:42.860 happened was unprecedented that doesn't mean that we're not american citizens and we don't fall

00:27:19.180 stage the vice president united states jd vance is up there going to be interviewed by mercy slap

00:27:24.700 yeah yeah are you a little jack jet lagged or no you know yes i am a little jet lagged so we we did a

00:27:30.940 trip where we went to france and then to germany and then we went to san diego for a family wedding

00:27:37.260 and then back in dc and we did all that in like seven days a little jet lag that's okay well i brought

00:27:42.140 i i i i i i'm in i'm in a good place right now i got some sleep last night okay good then we're ready

00:27:47.260 we're ready but it's a real special day today you know what today is guys it's february 20th that

00:27:53.180 means our 30 first 30 days the happy one month anniversary of the trump vance administration

00:28:03.900 i mean how exciting is that it's uh it's very exciting it's hard to believe we've only been in

00:28:10.940 office for a month because i think we've done more in a month than biden did in about four years and thank

00:28:16.380 god for that but you know the the president keeps us on a pretty breakneck pace he always asks what

00:28:24.060 have we done today what are we going to do tomorrow what are we going to do next week because i think

00:28:27.820 he realizes this is a special moment in time and by the way thank you thanks to all of you for making

00:28:34.540 it possible for us to do all the great work we've been doing in the administration i know we wouldn't

00:28:38.860 have been here without you but i think the president is acutely aware that the american people gave us a

00:28:44.220 window to save the country and that's exactly what we're going to do and thank god for that because

00:28:48.300 it's been a hell of a lot of fun the past month okay so i don't even think we can keep track of

00:28:53.900 all the things you all are doing in fact i don't even think the press can keep track of all they're

00:28:59.180 doing i mean they talk about the shock and awe strategy seriously so when you're looking at this

00:29:04.380 list after list after list what stands out to you well speaking of the press i i do think that we've

00:29:09.580 had maybe more executive orders than cnn has viewers each night so hello to our friends at cnn

00:29:17.260 i think i actually think that their plan was they were going to go all in on anti-trump yeah and hope

00:29:24.220 that he could save cnn in the same way that he did frankly in 2017 because nobody really watched the

00:29:30.300 network until until he became president 2017 but that's maybe the one thing i think the president has

00:29:36.620 been unable to do unable to save cnn's ratings uh over the last over the last few few months but look

00:29:43.100 i i i i think that what the president has tried to do is recognize that we have a historical mandate

00:29:50.300 on a few issues we have to secure the southern border and thanks to his actions border crossings are down

00:29:56.220 well over 90 and we're just getting started he recognizes that we have to really unlock the engine

00:30:03.260 of american growth we've got to get back to having a growing economy that creates good jobs and high

00:30:07.900 wages for the american people and a lot of that goes back to drill baby drill we've done more on energy

00:30:15.100 under president trump's leadership than i think any administration in history and that's that's not

00:30:19.580 an exaggeration and of course we're going to do more and then i think the third thing that he's tried

00:30:23.820 to do of course with the help of elon and all the great folks at doge is ask what are we doing with all 0.85

00:30:31.740 of the american taxpayers money and why are we wasting so much of it on garbage that the american

00:30:37.420 people either aren't aware that we're spending it on or don't want to be spending it on in the

00:30:41.900 first place like for example the stuff that we've figured out mercedes is unbelievable why are we

00:30:47.900 spending money on progressive modern art projects centered around toilets in afghanistan that's actually

00:30:56.220 something that your tax dollars were funding until very recently and i think all of us are sitting

00:31:00.860 around and asking what the hell are we doing with the american people's money for the last four

00:31:05.180 years let's turn off the spigot and spend the american people's tax money on the american people's 0.76

00:31:10.860 priority and that's of course been a big focus in the administration too let's dig deeper into

00:31:18.780 the immigration issue sure you've seen and you've met many of the victims people who have family members

00:31:25.660 who have died yes been tragically tragically murdered those angel families uh in the hands of

00:31:33.420 these criminal illegal aliens sure what's your message to these families what is and then what is your 0.99

00:31:39.980 message to these horrific drug cartels and human traffickers who have preyed on the most vulnerable in the 0.97

00:31:48.620 world well our message to the drug traffickers is get the hell out of our country your free ride is

00:31:54.860 over because president trump is back in the oval office that that is

00:32:01.500 you're you're you're not welcome you were never welcome according to the american people but

00:32:06.380 unfortunately you had president joe biden who allowed you to run free over the united states

00:32:11.580 of america and donald trump has said your terrorist organizations we're going to go after you we're

00:32:16.060 going to wage war on you and certainly we want you out of the united states of america and that's an 0.99

00:32:21.500 important message of course but our our message and you know this mercedes our message to the families

00:32:28.060 is president trump cares about you he thinks that it's disgraceful what your own government let happen

00:32:34.220 to your children to your grandchildren and it's got to stop and of course we we mourn with people we pray

00:32:41.020 for people but we're also asking as their government why did this happen to your child in the first place

00:32:47.180 and the answer is that under joe biden your government didn't do its job under donald trump it is thank

00:32:52.540 god for that

00:32:56.380 on the economy and i'm getting this question all the time you know it's this question of affordability

00:33:00.860 right there's a lot of stress on our families something that i think uh joe biden could not

00:33:06.380 manage in terms of of really helping lower that cost of living and making things just simply more

00:33:12.780 affordable sure uh we talked about energy independence being a critical component of this

00:33:17.740 of ensuring and making things just simply more affordable sure uh we talked about energy independence

00:33:23.260 being a critical component of this of ensuring that we unleash this economic prosperity what more needs

00:33:29.980 to be done yeah so one of the first interviews i did it was i i think six or seven days after the

00:33:36.220 inauguration and somebody asked me well it's been six days what have you done to fix the inflation crisis

00:33:42.620 created by joe biden i'm like well first of all it's been six days we've done a lot in six days

00:33:48.140 but it's going to take some time to fix what joe biden broke over four years and and we know

00:33:54.780 it is it is easy unfortunately to burn the house down it takes a little bit of time to build it back

00:34:00.860 up and here's here's what we we have to do because look the the fundamental goal of our immigration policy

00:34:07.580 of our border policy of doge saving taxpayer money the fundamental goal is we want your children and

00:34:15.020 grandchildren to be able to raise a family in security and comfort in the country that we all

00:34:20.300 love that is the whole goal of president trump's agenda like safety and prosperity right it's pretty

00:34:28.220 common sense stuff and we know that to do that we have to first of all unleash american energy now why

00:34:34.060 is that so important because look if you know we all know grocery prices got too high under joe biden's

00:34:40.300 leadership well one of the main drivers of groceries is energy because the farmers are paying more for

00:34:45.580 energy then we're all paying more for what the farmers grow and if the truck drivers who are

00:34:49.900 delivering the groceries are paying more for fuel then we're all paying more for what the truck drivers 0.64

00:34:55.420 are delivering to the grocery store if we unleash american energy that will do more than anything

00:35:00.940 to drive down the cost for the american people the second thing mercedes is we have got to stop

00:35:06.700 spending the american people's money on garbage every dollar every dollar that we take in and spend you

00:35:14.940 have to pay for either through taxes or through inflation and if we spend the american people's money more

00:35:21.420 wisely if we stop taxing and spending the american people to death that's also going to bring relief to 0.66

00:35:28.220 all of the pricing pressures that are out there we're going to make it affordable to live in this

00:35:32.380 country again that's our mandate that's our goal and you're right there's a lot more that we can do

00:35:37.260 but i think we've got a pretty good start after 30 days we've got a pretty good start but we've got this

00:35:43.980 big beautiful one bill budget reconciliation scenario how is that working what are the dynamics that are

00:35:52.140 happening right now in congress and and what the administration is doing to ensure uh that a lot

00:35:58.220 of what the president is wanting to do in terms of really pushing forward with economic prosperity and his tax

00:36:06.620 relief initiatives gets done in these bills yeah it's it's really important so the senate obviously has its own

00:36:13.420 approach and the president has been very clear that his preference is to put everything in one bill right and part of that is just simple

00:36:20.140 legislative strategy i think the president has learned a lot about how dc works and i actually

00:36:25.020 talked to the president about this yesterday and he said to me look it's very rare that you can get

00:36:29.420 two reconciliation bills done in one congress which is why he thinks we've got to do a lot with that

00:36:35.820 one big beautiful bill that first reconciliation package that we're gonna get through the house and

00:36:40.380 the senate it's going well it's early right this stuff takes time to put together i think you know if you

00:36:46.460 had a record-paced reconciliation bill we would get this thing done in may or in june i think we're

00:36:52.460 on track to do that but we've got to do some basic things mercedes one like i said we've got to continue

00:36:57.340 to unleash american energy that's part of the reconciliation bill we've got to make sure that other countries

00:37:02.860 stop taking advantage of us that's a big part of president trump's tariff policy is we got to stop being

00:37:08.620 taken advantage of um you know of course we want to make the president trump tax cuts permanent and

00:37:15.580 extend them into the future we want no taxes on tips we got to do some of the things we talked

00:37:19.820 about during the campaign that's got to be part of it and then finally and this is really important

00:37:24.940 everything the president has done on the border we have got to empower him to do it not just for a

00:37:30.940 month but for the next four years and we've got to we've got to hire more border patrol agents we've got

00:37:35.900 to give tom homan and stephen miller and christy gnome the resources they need to secure the border

00:37:42.300 and just not not to return to the border but i think so many of our issues come back to the border

00:37:50.380 because if you take 30 40 million illegal aliens you take medicare fraud social security fraud why are

00:37:57.420 we taking the people's social security payments and giving it to illegal aliens we know that's happening 1.00

00:38:03.500 in the united states of america today we've got to stop it if you get control of the border mercedes

00:38:08.700 you do more to control the fiscal problem that the financial problems that we have in this country

00:38:14.220 than almost anything get illegal aliens out of our country make sure american tax dollars go to american 0.55

00:38:19.580 people that is how you solve the fiscal crisis in the united states of america

00:38:24.140 shifting to your incredible speech at the munich conference did you all watch that

00:38:37.340 i don't know

00:38:41.980 i think they really liked it

00:38:42.940 i'm glad you guys liked it not everybody liked it you guys liked it not everybody liked it

00:38:47.340 i'll take a standing ovation for a speech i already gave

00:39:14.540 for the price of one yeah i was gonna say um here's your speech to say it again all right

00:39:22.300 uh but it was i was fast and fascinating because there was obviously some of these

00:39:29.420 european leaders that you know they were a little uptight about it it stressed them out just a little

00:39:33.820 bit a little bit but you talked about the greatest threats in europe yeah so look the greatest threat in

00:39:41.020 europe and i'd say it was the greatest threat in the united states until about 30 days ago is that

00:39:46.940 you've had the leaders of the west decide that they should send millions and millions of unvetted 1.00

00:39:55.820 foreign migrants into their countries that is the biggest threat to europe and frankly it remains 1.00

00:40:01.340 by the way the biggest threat to the united states because yes we've got four years of president

00:40:06.060 trump's leadership but i guarantee you if the democrats ever get power again they're going to

00:40:11.340 try to do it again we cannot rebuild western civilization we cannot rebuild the united states

00:40:18.380 of america or europe by letting millions and millions of unvetted illegal migrants come into 0.99

00:40:25.020 our country it has to stop thank god it's stopped here but it's got to stop there

00:40:29.660 and and and a related issue mercedes is you can't just stop it you have to allow european peoples and

00:40:39.980 of course the american people too to raise issues about it you have to allow free speech to debate this

00:40:47.500 stuff you have to stop doing things to the populations of the world you've got to give the

00:40:53.580 populations of the world the opportunity to speak up and say no more of this bs we want borders

00:40:59.500 we want sovereignty we want to be able to speak our own mind in our own country and i guarantee you

00:41:05.500 if we don't allow free speech and of course the biden administration i made this point mercedes

00:41:11.500 the biden administration did more to destroy free speech not just in the united states but also in

00:41:17.180 europe than any administration in american history i'm not even blaming the europeans i'm actually saying

00:41:23.420 you follow the lead of joe biden into censorship and mass migration follow the lead of donald j trump

00:41:31.740 and that's free speech borders and sovereignty that is the future for our shared civilization

00:41:42.460 and i will tell you something that is really truly remarkable that's happening at cpac is and we had our

00:41:49.580 second cpac international summit yesterday and we have many of these european conservative european

00:41:56.140 leaders with us today where we stand in solidarity because they have an opportunity to basically make

00:42:04.780 europe great again make asia great again make latin america great again and so in essence i think uh your

00:42:11.660 message was very well received by many of those conservative leaders across uh the globe uh but what does this

00:42:18.300 mean with the us now that you know in giving that speech what does this mean with the us's relationship

00:42:24.460 with europe well look obviously we're going to continue to have important alliances with europe

00:42:29.660 but i really do think the strength of those alliances is going to depend on whether we take our societies

00:42:37.420 in the right direction think about this germany's entire defense is subsidized by the american taxpayer

00:42:44.140 there are thousands upon thousands of american troops in germany today do you think that the american

00:42:50.380 taxpayer is going to stand for that if you get thrown in jail in germany for posting a mean tweet

00:42:56.220 of course they're not right so so the point that i try to make to our european friends and i i think

00:43:01.580 that they're our friends i believe that i know president trump does is that friendship is based on

00:43:07.100 shared values you do not have shared values if you're jailing people for saying we should close down

00:43:13.340 our border you don't have shared values if you cancel elections because you don't like the result and

00:43:19.740 that happened in romania you don't have you do not have shared values if you're so afraid of your own

00:43:27.100 people that you silence them and shut them up so let's have shared values let's defend democracy let's

00:43:33.980 have free expression not just in the united states but all over the western world that is the path to

00:43:39.740 strong alliances in europe we had ambassador rick riddell with us yesterday he'll be on uh at the cpaq

00:43:51.020 stage uh during these conferences he has like three jobs or four or five yes but um let me ask you this

00:43:57.580 where are we on our and basically the status of the russia ukraine uh moving forward in terms of these

00:44:04.060 negotiations in bringing peace to this endless war you know it's it's it's early and i think

00:44:10.140 what president trump what makes him such an effective negotiator i've seen this in private

00:44:14.940 is that he doesn't take anything off the table when he walks into negotiation he says everything

00:44:20.860 is on the table and of course that makes the heads explode in the american media because they say why are

00:44:25.820 you talking to russia well how are you going to end the war unless you're talking to russia you've got

00:44:30.780 to talk to everybody involved in the fighting if you actually want to bring the conflict to a close

00:44:35.980 and i know the president does but i'll i'll tell you the goals that animate president trump's policy

00:44:43.500 it's really simple he wants the killing to stop he wants to bring lasting peace to europe he doesn't

00:44:49.660 just want to stop it now and have the war restart a month from now he wants to bring lasting peace to

00:44:55.500 europe because the president believes this and he's absolutely right peace is in the interest of

00:45:00.700 russia it's in the interest of ukraine it's in the interest of europe but most importantly peace is in

00:45:06.700 the interest of the american people and he's going to fight for it for the remainder of his administration

00:45:11.820 wherever war breaks out he's going to be the president of peace now he of course is a a very good

00:45:19.260 negotiator a very good businessman he recognizes that a lot of these issues are tough it's going to take a

00:45:25.100 smart statesman to figure this stuff out but we've got that in the white house and i i really believe

00:45:30.700 that we're in the cusp of peace in europe for the first time in three years because we have leadership

00:45:36.700 from the oval office and we haven't had it in four years in this country

00:45:46.140 matt and i mentioned this right when we started the conference we're honored by the presence of two

00:45:51.420 hostages that were freed uh after the hamas atrocity the tragedy that we've seen happen and we have

00:45:58.860 several of the family members as well who uh still they're they're there they're where they

00:46:06.220 their loved ones are still being detained by hamas

00:46:12.460 what is your message to these hostage families and these survivors our message is that president

00:46:24.220 trump loves you he hasn't forgotten your loved ones and he's going to fight every single day to bring

00:46:29.340 them home that is exactly what he's been doing and that's what he'll keep on doing i

00:46:37.740 i was actually talking with one of my best friends about this a couple of days can i be your best

00:46:42.060 friend too yes okay i think we all want to be your best friend right okay okay but i i was talking

00:46:49.340 with him and he was asking me he was like well i don't understand why was biden unable to do this

00:46:56.620 and then like the minute that donald trump won we started to make progress and bring the hostages home

00:47:02.780 and i said man it's just a question of leadership you actually need a president who is willing to pick

00:47:09.820 up the phone and say you got to bring these people home no no no we don't we're not focused on that

00:47:15.420 crap right now we're focused on bringing hostages home and then when the negotiations hit a wall 0.99

00:47:21.500 because they always do you need a president who picks up the phone and says cut this crap out we've 0.99

00:47:26.780 got to make progress and you've got to keep that pace going it it's leadership it really is and i saw 0.95

00:47:33.100 it behind the scenes and and what the and what the president did is he empowered in particular

00:47:38.860 because this remember this was before right we were inaugurated this is before we had our great

00:47:43.260 secretary of state marco rubio or any of the great people around us you know the president sent his his

00:47:49.260 dear friend and he's become my dear friend steve whitkoff as an emissary of the president united states

00:47:55.180 and he said steve you speak for me get it done and if there are problems pick up the phone and call me

00:48:01.500 steve whitkoff with the president's leadership got it done and it's amazing and and of course

00:48:06.060 we still got work to do we've got to finish the process but i i really believe the president is

00:48:11.980 as committed to this as any american leader in my lifetime we're going to keep on fighting for it

00:48:20.700 one of the issues that's central to the cpaq community is the issue of pro-life of course and

00:48:27.100 what is the administration going to do to defend the unborn to provide support for those mothers 0.59

00:48:33.740 those fathers that choose life sure well you know one of the things of course the president got done

00:48:40.300 during the first term and i think that it's why he is accurately called the most pro-life president in

00:48:45.420 american history is he finally made it possible for the will of the people to speak on the life issue

00:48:53.020 and that was that the dobbs decision what that did is it gave the abortion question back to the

00:48:59.980 people it took it out of the hands of unelected bureaucrats and unelected judges and gave it back

00:49:05.580 to the people and i think the most important thing that we can do and i'm as you know mercedes i'm very

00:49:10.700 pro-life i'm a devout christian is that we have got to persuade our fellow americans because now we've got

00:49:17.660 the power we've got the power of persuasion we've got to persuade our fellow citizens that unborn life

00:49:24.220 is worthy of protecting it is sacred in the eyes of god and it should be sacred in the eyes of man

00:49:30.300 too and we have to pick up the torch and fight for that every single day and i know you guys are up for

00:49:36.220 the task i am too and i and i think on the administration side what the president has said

00:49:43.180 and it's been consistent it's going to be consistent in the rhetoric and in the policy is

00:49:47.980 we believe in the trump administration that babies are good that families are good and we want to make

00:49:54.860 it easier for young moms and young dads to choose life to start families and to bring new life into

00:50:00.620 the world that's the whole point of our policy now

00:50:07.900 now some of that of course is supporting our great crisis pregnancy centers at the moment of these

00:50:12.780 important health care decisions encouraging young women to choose life at that important moment of

00:50:18.300 choice some of that is bringing costs down so that you know young moms and dads don't look to the future

00:50:23.980 and a new baby and say how can i afford this and if they're able to actually afford to raise a family 0.69

00:50:30.780 maybe they'll start thinking of babies as the blessings that we all know that they are and i think

00:50:37.020 but i i think fundamentally this is going to take a lot of leadership from the president on down but

00:50:46.380 from every single person in this room we've got to persuade our fellow citizens to stop thinking about

00:50:52.780 babies as inconveniences to be discarded we've got to start thinking of them as blessings to cherish and

00:50:59.580 that's exactly what i promise to do so now we're going to get personal this is okay um your faith yeah

00:51:13.340 why is it so important to you what does it mean to you tell us why when you go every single day to work

00:51:21.340 how faith is a part of who you are well i mean first is i i believe like the fundamental tenet of

00:51:29.820 the christian faith it's not just a set of good moral principles though it is that i think the

00:51:34.380 fundamental tenet of our faith is that the son of god became man he died and he raised himself from

00:51:42.460 the dead that is the fundamental tenet of the christian faith and i think so so much flows from that

00:51:47.740 and i think one one one lesson that flows from that is that we shouldn't fear death of course

00:51:55.180 death is a very bad thing but there are much more there are much more terrible things than just losing

00:52:01.820 one's life and importantly you could lose one's soul and i think we have whether it's fighting for the

00:52:07.020 unborn or fighting for peace and security for our citizens i want us to be the kind of society

00:52:13.900 where my kids can grow up to be virtuous young people can be good young christians of course

00:52:19.820 because that's what i'm i'm trying to raise them to be and that's what our public policy is trying to

00:52:24.620 do creating the space where moms and dads can raise their children in their faith to become

00:52:30.540 good young people who believe the things that i do that is what i'm trying to create is the space for you

00:52:37.580 of course to raise your children as you see fit but the space for me to raise my kids to be the

00:52:43.580 kind of young people that i think they ought to be and and and the other thing that i take from it

00:52:49.420 mercedes is if you look at the long history of the christian faith we've been around for about 2000 years

00:52:54.940 now give or take a few years and there have been really dark times in the history of the christian

00:53:00.620 faith there have been really good times in the history of the christian faith and i just try to remind

00:53:05.500 myself that we put our faith in god above we put our faith in the grace of god and we try the best to

00:53:15.980 do his will and we don't worry so much about whether we're going to have earthly rewards we worry about

00:53:22.620 whether we're doing right by god almighty above that's what i try to do and that's how i try to run my life

00:53:28.460 in public you mentioned raising these children into good people and also into good citizens that

00:53:36.700 contribute to society and to the world we had so many young people come out and support donald trump

00:53:44.060 yes we did and jd vance and thank you this past election so what is your message and i really what is

00:53:51.260 your message to the young men you know i guess my message to young people generally is we're trying

00:53:59.660 to make your life better and that is this that is the simple thrust of president trump's policy

00:54:05.820 is we want you to be able to buy a home we want you to be able to work a good job we want you to be

00:54:10.380 able to raise your kids like i said according to the values that you believe in and we want you to be

00:54:15.660 able to build a nice life in this country that all of us love that is what we're trying to do

00:54:21.180 and you know you guys more than more than anybody more than me i'm talking about people under the age

00:54:27.180 of 30 in particular you guys are going to have to deal with the consequences of good policy or of

00:54:34.860 bad policy for much longer than the rest of us and i i i just i want you guys to think about the future

00:54:41.500 and ask yourself do you want safe communities do you want a prosperous life do you want to be able

00:54:46.380 to work a good job or do you want that job shipped off to china or somewhere else we're

00:54:50.860 fighting for you every single day we want you to help fight for us because we've got to win

00:54:56.140 not just not just the the policy battles of the next couple of months we've got to win the midterm

00:55:01.100 elections in a couple of years we need you we recognize that we need you and we're fighting

00:55:05.820 for you every single day and and i think you know you you asked me you might my message to young men

00:55:12.380 is i i think that our culture sends a message to young men that you should suppress every masculine urge

00:55:19.820 you should you you should try to cast aside your family you should try to suppress what makes you

00:55:28.780 a young man in the first place and i think that my message to young men is don't allow this broken

00:55:35.900 culture to send you a message that you're a bad person because you're a man because you like to tell a

00:55:42.300 joke because you like to have a beer with your friends or because you're competitive it's

00:55:56.700 like our our message the the cultural message and i think the president's and in mine is the exact

00:56:03.180 opposite but our cultural message is i i think that it wants to turn everybody in whether male or female 0.99

00:56:10.300 into androgynous idiots who think the same talk the same and act the same we actually think god made 0.98

00:56:17.420 male and female for a purpose and we want you guys to thrive as young men and as young women and we're 1.00

00:56:24.700 going to help with our public policy to make it possible to do that

00:56:27.900 and and by the way that i i actually think mercedes this is the thing that president trump

00:56:38.300 this is why the media went after him so hard is because you know what i think about like what what

00:56:44.300 is the essence of masculinity you could answer this in so many different ways but when i think about

00:56:49.260 me and my guy friends we really like to tell jokes to one another like we like to laugh you think of

00:56:56.060 all the movies that were really popular are you saying you're pretty funny i try to be okay president

00:57:00.380 trump who's funnier who's funnier president all right let's be honest there you go he's got the

00:57:05.420 best he's got the best sense of humor of any american political figure but but i i think this is why

00:57:10.780 young men in particular are so you know they're they're so inspired by president trump is because

00:57:16.220 he doesn't allow the media to tell him he can't make a joke or he can't have an original thought

00:57:22.700 president trump just says what's on his mind that's a damn good thing and it's a good example

00:57:28.620 to set for young men in american culture you know i always tell my uh five daughters i don't have any

00:57:35.340 sons but we matt and i we have five uh beautiful daughters and i always say you know the most important

00:57:40.700 decision you'll ever make is who you marry that's right always who you marry and you made a very

00:57:45.100 important decision in marrying usha i did i did i married up i married up she is a beautiful second

00:57:51.500 lady and i want to know what is the best advice usha has given you well one this is so fun okay

00:58:01.420 this is gonna be very personal one piece of advice she gave me like a week ago was you should be nicer

00:58:06.620 on social media i don't know that i'll take that advice some advice is good some advice is you know you

00:58:13.260 you can you is can be good but you don't have to always take it i you sound like my husband the

00:58:20.380 the best advice usha ever gave me when it comes i mean she gave me so many good life advices um

00:58:25.900 or pieces of advice but the best advice she gave me when it came to politics is don't let them filter

00:58:31.900 you and in politics you know you've got consultants and you've got media professionals you've got pollsters

00:58:38.940 you've got a lot of people who try to tell you what to say or how to behave or you know what to do

00:58:45.020 and and usha just said just be yourself be authentic go out there and say what's actually

00:58:50.860 on your mind maybe a little nicer from time to time but i think that's the best advice that she gave

00:58:55.820 me and that's why we take our kids everywhere and that's why i'm not afraid to make a joke on social

00:59:00.140 media even if it's sometimes a dad joke i forgive you forgive me all of you who don't like don't like

00:59:05.500 dad jokes but you just got to be yourself and i think that's president trump's superpower in american

00:59:10.540 politics and that's probably the best advice usha ever gave me at least on politics okay last question

00:59:19.340 what inspires you every day well i mean one is is my family right i mean i'm blessed to have

00:59:28.060 a seven-year-old a five-year-old and a three-year-old and i can't help but see the country

00:59:33.660 through their eyes and when we were on the campaign in particular and we would take our

00:59:38.620 kids with us all of my kids when we were about to land in some new place you know they'd all rush to

00:59:44.540 the window of the plane and they look out and they'd say oh dad this looks so cool like you know the

00:59:49.420 beauty of the arizona cactuses and arizona deserts or you know we'd be in texas for a fundraiser

00:59:55.020 they'd be like oh my god like look at just all of that open space right or we we'd be in north

01:00:00.300 carolina and say oh look how beautiful the green mountains right this idea of these beautiful green

01:00:04.540 mountains of appalachia north carolina we love north carolina and i i guess i guess what inspires me

01:00:12.460 is you can't help but be hopeful and energetic and optimistic about this country when you see it

01:00:20.060 through the eyes of a child so i hope i never lose that perspective because it does inspire me every day

01:00:24.540 well mr vice president you inspire us every day we are praying for you we are praying for your

01:00:34.700 family we are praying for this incredible administration for of course president donald

01:00:39.580 trump and we are honored that you are here with our c-pack family and i'm honored to be here thank

01:00:44.140 thank you thank you thank you so much thank you all i love you guys thank you

01:00:58.140 so

01:01:14.140 okay welcome back we're here at c-pack

01:01:21.900 live here in real america's voice um fascinating interview right there mercy schlap the vice president

01:01:29.340 of the united states jd vance that kicks off c-pack c-pack's gonna be uh pretty explosive this year

01:01:34.300 correct yeah absolutely that's called a micro are you eating a brat dude you eat you pounded down a 0.57

01:01:40.460 donut is that we're doing here it's not visible to the camera it's not visible camera okay we've

01:01:45.820 got uh we've got balaz orban here tell us uh victor orban is a hero here in the united states to maga

01:01:52.700 why is that you should tell us yeah no no i want to hear why what do you guys think it's a it's a great

01:01:58.540 show what we have here and we remember and now c-pack is extremely popular everybody wants to be here

01:02:03.820 but c-pack hungary is going to be when it wasn't the case a couple years ago but for we were here

01:02:09.420 and uh we were fighting for the same same things but we are fighting and most probably this is why my

01:02:14.700 prime minister is also tell us what the fight is in hungary what why is that why is orban uh so close

01:02:20.860 to the president and why is he considered the bridge particularly as the president's you know trying to

01:02:25.900 think through geo strategically geo economically what we're doing in europe particularly with russia why is

01:02:31.580 orban so important because i think it's very much in line with what was said by the vice president that

01:02:38.620 that we are fighting for our civilization so it's not a usual political ideological fight between two

01:02:45.260 political parties it's about the the survival of our civilization because the liberals in the last

01:02:51.500 years last decade they they destroyed everything what made us we made us strong and powerful and now

01:02:58.540 if we are not able to uh to push them back then our countries will go down as it happened in the united

01:03:05.580 states as as it's happening in in brussels which is the liberal capital of of of europe and hungary is

01:03:12.220 leading the resistance now against the brusselian liberal talk about that resistance uh as doge and other

01:03:20.140 these efforts to getting back to the u.s budget we're finding out now usa id which i think was hidden

01:03:25.580 for america right this one aspect of it funded a lot of the negative media throughout europe and

01:03:30.860 particularly in hungary uh you guys are calling for an audit or you're calling for a full exposure

01:03:35.980 of money that went in from the u.s government actually american people american taxpayers money

01:03:41.900 were spent the sent to try to delegitimize uh the hungarian government and the conservative values

01:03:49.180 which are shared by them many many many of the american taxpayers money when when you say

01:03:54.780 you're fighting for your to save your civilization over here that sounds like a political cliche

01:04:01.340 what does that mean because it's useful for americans to hear other cultures speak to saving

01:04:06.780 civilization what does that mean for you well we are we are an old nation in the middle of hungary

01:04:13.020 a thousand years old it's a landlocked country but not a mind-locked one we have a very unique

01:04:18.460 culture a unique language and we appreciate the traditional values which are which are helping us

01:04:24.700 to make the next generation strong i mean you need to have family you need to have kids you need to

01:04:31.020 remain sovereign you need to be able to secure your borders you need to be able to provide freedom

01:04:37.980 and and the work opportunity for for the people this is what good governments is is is for and now

01:04:44.300 these liberals institutional structures as it is happening in the states and as it is happening in

01:04:49.900 in brussels they are working against this yeah for it's it's so obvious that we are standing here

01:04:56.460 and uh we need to not reform the structure and and and the new one and a majority of your people

01:05:04.300 share this strongly and so how does this like in this country a minority in the media and elites

01:05:11.500 almost sees power i'm sorry here when i when the migrants in in in 2015 there was that was a year

01:05:18.380 when 400 000 people illegal migrants wanted to march across uh our country and the prime minister

01:05:25.260 said that no no no no it's not going to happen law and order we closed the borders we'll build a fence

01:05:31.180 and and we didn't let them in and and then we organized a referendum we asked the people because

01:05:37.820 there was an issue which was not existed before in a democracy you have to ask the people if

01:05:43.100 something serious happens you have to ask them what what should be the respond on the government

01:05:47.180 side so we initiated the national referendum overwhelming majority of the hungarians good

01:05:53.340 even those who disagree with the government on many points were saying you did the right thing

01:05:58.540 you you you didn't that let them in and you should stick to this uh uh plan 70 it's 90 90

01:06:06.540 percent and then 90 of people just said no way we don't want people come through our country we

01:06:11.580 don't want some of the country illegal yes what is happening now is that the brussels it has a

01:06:18.380 pro-migration position so they launched a legal attack against hungary and and they used the judiciary

01:06:27.260 as they used it in the united states as well against against the country and now we are under a sanction we

01:06:33.740 have to pay every uh day one million euro which is which is that we are not letting the migrants in 1.00

01:06:41.500 which is a huge amount of uh money it's almost 400 million uh euros uh per year and but the my prime

01:06:49.500 minister says that it's even worse if you did because it would cost much more if we let them in but

01:06:56.780 hungary hasn't had any of the problems you've seen in germany and france none of the attacks none of

01:07:02.460 none of the collapse of really big parts of society what you're seeing in england none of the problems

01:07:09.020 that have come from having that just open borders it's so simple if you don't have the illegal migrants 1.00

01:07:15.420 the the streets and the cities are safe and sound and you don't have terrorist attacks it's it's not

01:07:20.780 rocket science it's a it's a simple fact right i want to go back though i don't think people in our

01:07:26.700 country they're just becoming aware i want to be specific u.s taxpayer money went to fund media

01:07:33.660 operations that went against orban and his government for what he was doing specifically to to to save

01:07:41.660 his country and that had 90 support of the people even many people don't agree with uh orban

01:07:48.460 politically on many things support him on this and you had taxpayer money going in to support these

01:07:53.980 organizations there to destroy victor orban and the situation is even worse because uh george soros

01:08:00.860 uh and his uh organization i think i've heard of that name george soros yeah it's a well it's a well

01:08:06.380 known name here in the states as well and he is dedicatedly against against orban and against the hungarian

01:08:14.060 government and he why why is he so determined to destroy orban's government because he wanted to

01:08:20.780 take over hungary and we didn't let it happen so he is furious uh he wants to get rid of with the

01:08:26.940 government and he convinced the biden administration uh to use the taxpayers money to help his organizations

01:08:35.500 operating in hungary and brussels so america as an opposition to orban as an opposition and paid for

01:08:41.180 by u.s taxpayers in the biden uh the biden regime yeah so i don't see the point why american taxpayers

01:08:47.420 money should be spent to buy multi-billionaires uh politics to to support multi-billionaires uh

01:08:53.660 political he he's for the open society though so he's open to all these ideas of democracy yes

01:09:03.340 it's a it's a good joke yeah yeah yeah i think it's open borders okay talk to us about c-pack 0.58

01:09:08.300 hungary and talk about going forward where do you see orban's role hungary's role president trump

01:09:13.580 thinks very highly of orban i think he sees orban as one of the potential bridges of the united states

01:09:19.580 into europe walk us through what's happening now and going forward particularly with uh president trump

01:09:25.580 until now we have been actually the only country in the liberal ocean who wanted to

01:09:31.100 uh lead the resistance now we have a friend on our side so it's it's uh it's rebelling to to hear that

01:09:38.380 you can talk about you can talk about how bad migration is you can talk about how important to

01:09:43.900 protect uh christian values is and it's it's a completely new world order a new reality for

01:09:49.980 ourselves i think it's very good for united states of america but it's not my job to decide that it

01:09:55.260 should be decided by the american people but i'm 100 sure that it's very good for europe and very good

01:10:00.860 for for for for my country so we hope and think about think about the war i mean for like three

01:10:08.620 years we were we were we were constantly saying that this war has to end because it has no reason

01:10:16.380 and orban was criticized by you saying they're a puppet of putin and and you guys were ostracized

01:10:21.180 all the next is there any facts on the ground that lead you to believe that orban was wrong about the

01:10:26.380 decision he made which the same the same position war room took from the very beginning you know how

01:10:32.140 do you if you take seriously that you want to end the war how how do you want to do it if you are not

01:10:38.780 restoring communication uh channels between uh those who are fighting it's impossible so then you are not

01:10:45.900 saying seriously that your goal is to end the war you want to fight the war if there is no communication

01:10:53.180 it means that you want to find the war and you want to destroy your enemy it's it's and i think

01:10:58.700 we westerners and especially not the hungarians shouldn't focus on trying to destroy each other 0.97

01:11:04.860 and trying to destroy uh the russians we should find a way to peacefully coexist because you think

01:11:10.220 there's a way to peacefully coexist with the russians in europe i think it's possible victor orban

01:11:14.220 thinks that i i think it's possible and i'm very happy to see that the american administration is

01:11:19.020 working to find a way let's talk about that they're trying to find a way obviously but what

01:11:22.780 about president trump's observations or criticisms about zelinski and zelinski's uh government in the

01:11:29.420 last 72 hours you know like these are just facts and you don't argue with facts so this is this is

01:11:38.380 the reality this is how things are are are looking like and and i i'm i'm hungarian so i i can't speak

01:11:48.380 in name of the ukrainians but there is a hungarian ethnic minority who is living in ukraine and they

01:11:54.620 are suffering very much from the from the bad consequences of the of the war and they want peace

01:12:00.300 so i know that the hungarian minority who is living in ukraine they want peace and they want to end the 0.98

01:12:05.580 war and they want a leadership which is working together with the united states to end the war as

01:12:11.180 soon as possible and i think this would be the this would be the only possible outcome for europe as

01:12:17.660 as well just there was there was a news uh about the negotiations in saudi arabia immediately gas prices

01:12:26.300 went down energy prices went down stock market went up so just it had an immediate positive uh effect

01:12:33.660 on the everyday life of the european people imagine what would happen if we are able to settle the

01:12:39.260 conflict as it was mentioned by the vice president as well and and find a find a long-term agreement

01:12:45.820 between nato between united states of america between the western world and russia that would be

01:12:52.060 very good for all of us so we should work it on i know it will be hard it's not easy there is a many

01:12:59.820 emotional aspect of it but adults should take control and and take the lead otherwise we are going to

01:13:06.940 keep keep keep going down we'll send our regard look we think victor orban we were with him in texas

01:13:12.460 he spoke he speaks at uh cpac's all the time now cpac has had a very successful run in hungary they're

01:13:18.620 going to do another one in late may i understand war room will be there uh representing we'll probably

01:13:23.900 do the show live from there where do people if they're interested to find more information about

01:13:27.980 hungary victor orban and particularly you all your writings social media where do they go

01:13:32.460 social media x is a good platform for to do so and what's the what's your handle you have a standing

01:13:39.980 invitation uh in in hungary you should have live uh broadcasting yes he is a very popular man

01:13:47.020 in hungary hungarians love him it's easy you guys are the hungarians on the right side of every issue

01:13:53.980 and victor orban's a hero because for many years they tried to ostracize him and now you know that

01:13:59.020 american taxpayer dollars unbeknownst to american citizens went to try to destroy what you guys are

01:14:04.700 doing in hungary and now victor orban's looked in the world stage as a hero as somebody that said

01:14:09.420 everything was going to happen to about the ukraine war and he's uh obviously president trump thinks

01:14:14.220 very highly of them they're very close probably has the best relationship of anybody on the continent

01:14:18.700 so what what's the handle on on social media where they go not just x but yeah but uh i think x is
