00:00:00.000 Congressman Seth Moulton of Massachusetts, Congressman, as we've been watching, Senator
00:00:07.280 Van Hollen saying, protecting due process, saying this, quote, if you violate it for
00:00:14.340 one, you threaten it for all.
00:00:16.800 Your thoughts?
00:00:18.420 Well, that's what people need to remember, is that this can happen to any of us.
00:00:23.880 Every American needs to know, as you watch this on TV, that you could be next.
00:00:29.060 This administration has no red lines.
00:00:32.980 The Republicans in Congress who enable this administration clearly have no red lines.
00:00:38.880 Senator Van Hollen was asked about that as well.
00:00:41.500 I see it with my colleagues, my Republican colleagues in the House.
00:00:45.460 I don't know what their red lines are.
00:00:47.220 And so this could happen to you next.
00:00:50.380 Look what happened with law firms.
00:00:52.220 Look what's happening to the media.
00:00:53.900 OK, like you are seeing industry after industry, right, get silenced.
00:00:58.380 And we're also allowing it to happen, right?
00:01:00.560 When they went after Paul Weiss, the entire legal profession could have stood together
00:01:04.800 and said, you're not taking us down.
00:01:06.080 But instead, all the other top law firms, while Paul Weiss was under the gun, they were
00:01:10.080 knocking on their client's door saying, come on over here.
00:01:12.220 The water's warm.
00:01:13.180 Right.
00:01:13.340 So there is a method to standing up.
00:01:15.280 But you have to stand up in unison.
00:01:16.640 And that isn't happening.
00:01:17.600 Well, look, yeah, I think that we are perpetually, I don't know, we're not talking about having 0.70
00:01:23.720 balls anymore, but can we still clutch pearls? 0.68
00:01:26.800 Yeah, I was going to say, I was going to say, I was going to say, I was going to say, son.
00:01:29.080 You were going to say, all right, I didn't see it written there.
00:01:31.640 I wasn't copying your notes, I promise.
00:01:33.220 But there's an element of pearl clutching about when he breaks the rules, almost no matter
00:01:40.840 what the substance is.
00:01:42.820 You know, he broke the rules in 2018, and he was separating children from their parents
00:01:47.620 at the border.
00:01:48.700 Like, that was breaking a rule that was gut-wrenching that people could see.
00:01:52.540 He's breaking the rules now, in some cases, where people think the rules should be broken.
00:01:57.600 We need to distinguish between these two and focus on the cases where the rules being broken
00:02:02.320 really are gut-wrenching for the ordinary voter.
00:02:06.540 He's breaking the rules, like he did before.
00:02:09.400 We went after him.
00:02:11.420 We had so many hearings, hearing after hearing.
00:02:14.880 It did nothing.
00:02:16.320 He got re-elected.
00:02:18.180 We won in 2018.
00:02:19.780 Well, he lost.
00:02:20.600 Right, but now he, I feel like we have fatigue.
00:02:25.140 It's like, oh God, we're going to do this again?
00:02:28.020 What's the new approach?
00:02:29.880 He says things, like he's, you know, he's talking about immigration, and he said he's
00:02:34.060 going to go after the homegrown terrorists next.
00:02:36.480 Weren't, didn't he just pardon all the January 6th people? 1.00
00:02:41.060 Aren't they the homegrown terrorists?
00:02:42.220 But you know what's interesting?
00:02:43.900 In the first term, I just have this indelible memory of Stephen Miller talking about wanting
00:02:48.860 to bring down the cosmopolitans.
00:02:50.480 And the cosmopolitans are the people who are sitting around this table and living on the
00:02:55.240 coasts and are, enjoyed the surface economy and have benefited from globalization.
00:02:59.380 And there are institutions that are tied to that, universities, nonprofits, research
00:03:04.980 institutions, hospitals, people who have done well with the series of institutions that
00:03:10.600 have come up and the rules that have been established our lives for the course of the
00:03:14.420 last three decades.
00:03:16.600 And Trump is saying in all these various venues, he's going to go after people like bulldogs,
00:03:23.940 whether he follows the rules or not.
00:03:25.500 And there's a whole portion of the country that doesn't like what's happened over the
00:03:29.140 last 30 years.
00:03:29.840 It's a 30-year problem.
00:03:30.860 That moment, the steeple of Old North Church looked like something was being projected on
00:03:36.040 it as I spoke those words last night on this show about this church.
00:03:40.540 You can see it says there, this is a projection on the Old North.
00:03:43.800 Let the warning ride forth once more.
00:03:47.820 Tyranny is at our door.
00:03:49.820 And then it's a projection so they can change it over to other things.
00:03:52.780 And then there was this one.
00:03:53.620 This is quite good.
00:03:54.300 I kind of can't believe I didn't think of this myself.
00:03:56.140 One if by land, two if by D.C., Old North Church in Boston.
00:04:06.060 Tomorrow, on the 250th anniversary of those first battles in our revolution, the 250th
00:04:11.820 anniversary of the battles of Lexington and Concord, the battles that we won, that started
00:04:16.860 the war, that we won to free us forever from ever suffering again under the tyranny of a king.

00:06:51.060 Heaven!
00:06:53.060 Holy-
00:07:00.060 Frees unfurled, here once in battle farmers stood, and by the shopper ground the world.
00:07:15.200 The whole long sins in silence slept, but like the conqueror's silence ceased, and tied the ruined bridge as sweat, down the dark stream which seaward frees.
00:07:41.420 On this green bank, by this soft stream, we set today a bolted stone, that memory may their deep redeem, when like our sighs our sons are gone.
00:08:09.540 Spirit that make those heroes dare to die and keep their children free, with time and nature gently spare.
00:08:29.540 Where all shall we raise to them and lead.
00:08:36.540 It's Saturday, 19 April, Year of Our Lord 2025.
00:08:43.580 It's Holy Saturday, but also the 250th commemoration anniversary of the shot heard around the world right there at Lexington Common.
00:08:53.400 Really want to give a hat tip to the reenactors.
00:08:56.360 That was reenacted this morning, close to, it happened at dawn, and then at 11 o'clock, I think we're going to be at Concord Bridge, supposed to be a live event there.
00:09:06.700 Overnight, what happened, you had a British expeditionary force under General Thomas Gage that was at Boston.
00:09:16.280 Boston was the hot spot of this nascent revolution.
00:09:21.720 The colonists basically controlled the hinterland, and you had some hothead revolutionary leaders, particularly Sam Adams and John Hancock.
00:09:30.280 And the British were getting more and more concerned after the Suffolk resolves that with the committee as a correspondence, which you are the modern equivalent of the world posse, that things were going to be spinning a little bit out of control.
00:09:46.620 Although this is probably only a third of the of the subjects in the colonies.
00:09:54.600 One third were hardcore Tories, one third roughly were in the middle, as often in life and even today in America, to see how this played out, which side they were going to come on.
00:10:06.020 It was decided that what they needed to do was to make sure that these hotheads, these colonists, didn't didn't have weapons and didn't have gunpowder and particularly didn't have the revolutionary leaders.
00:10:20.160 And, you know, very equivalent to what the Biden regime tried to do with President Trump, you know, put him in jail, put him in prison for what, 350, 400 years to put his closest folks in prison or try to bankrupt them or de-platform them.
00:10:37.600 And the imperial power of the deep state and the administrative state still working its magic in modern America, 250 years later, it's so analogous as to be scary.
00:10:48.220 Of course, the opposition is having no King's Day because they say that President Trump is trying to be a king and this is autocratic breakthrough.
00:10:55.000 So 250 years after this event, and this is one of the most important events in not just in American history but world history because this lit the fuse that started the American Revolution.
00:11:09.100 And it was eight years in a tough fight, principally a lot of guerrilla warfare today in Lexington and Concord as the British, the 300 or 750 troops retreated on the long march back to Cambridge and to Boston.
00:11:25.880 They were hit in guerrilla warfare style by people who had learned to fight during the French and Indian Wars as British subjects.
00:11:32.200 What they did is they were going to go arrest John Hancock and Sam Adams in Lexington, which was en route to Concord, where there was a makeshift arsenal or let's say military stores with gunpowder weapons and other, you know, other military equipment.
00:11:55.160 And so they started off, they were going to go, you know, in top secret.
00:12:02.340 Gage said later he only told two people.
00:12:05.920 He told his executive officer and then they didn't even get the orders to Colonel Smith and Pitt Caron, Smith's deputy.
00:12:17.820 His XO didn't even know the orders until the order was ready to march.
00:12:21.800 Before in the 18th, Gage later testified he only gave it to two to two people, his executive officer and one other.
00:12:31.040 History are kind of not myth, but the people folks point the finger to is his wife, Margaret Kimball, who was an American citizen.
00:12:41.820 She had married and she was a Tory and they had married into she had married Gage, I think, years earlier.
00:12:49.040 And Kimball had tea late on the afternoon of the 18th with a very close friend of hers, Dr. Joseph Warren.
00:12:57.320 These were all kind of this was the aristocracy in America.
00:13:01.660 And Dr. Warren was part of the Sons of Liberty, unbeknownst to Gage and these guys.
00:13:07.580 He was one of the top guys in this kind of not spy network, but but network of patriots that were organizing.
00:13:14.720 It is alleged at that tea in late in the afternoon, 18th, Kimball told Joseph Warren, Dr. Warren, the plan to send the British in the dead of night to go march to Lexington and Concord to take to arrest Adams and Hancock in Lexington and then go into Concord and take the military stores.
00:13:35.240 Warren told Paul Revere, and others, Prescott, to set up the ride, one if by land, two if by sea, to set the signal for the British there at Old North Church about how they were going to come and then ride on the road to Lexington and Concord and inform every house that the British are coming.
00:13:57.980 And that's why they laid in wait and on Lexington Common, you saw right there, and I thought it was a great reenactment.
00:14:05.240 And supposedly the person that shot or at least admitted or claimed the shot heard around the world was Solomon Brown, kind of a hard-drinking, tough-as-nails patriot.
00:14:16.620 It's never been decided who actually fired it, right, whether the British officers, the British enlisted grenadiers who were nervous or actually the colonists.
00:14:24.980 We're going to get into all this today and tie it to modern American history.
00:14:29.820 There's so much going on.
00:14:30.940 The Supreme Court last night went back all the way to John Adams' Alien Enemies Act and said, put it on hold right now, and said,
00:14:40.620 President Trump cannot do that to deport 10 million illegal aliens that have invaded our country. 1.00
00:14:46.960 All this for the rest of the morning here in the world.
00:14:49.480 The April 15th tax deadline is coming, and it's coming fast.
00:15:05.260 Do you have unfiled tax returns?
00:15:06.960 Can't pay the IRS?
00:15:08.540 The IRS is more than aggressive and the more aggressive than ever.
00:15:12.660 And the longer you wait, the worse it gets.
00:15:14.480 Wage garnishments, bank levies, even property seizures are all on the table.
00:15:20.500 You need to get ahead of this.
00:15:22.180 You need to get ahead of it today.
00:15:24.280 But going up against the IRS alone is a big-time mistake.
00:15:27.920 Take my advice.

00:16:42.240 It might be noted today that the president, the VP,
00:17:05.680 are not there.
00:17:09.060 Part of that, I think, is just given the fact that it's in Massachusetts,
00:17:13.300 and we saw Governor Youngkin.
00:17:15.320 In fact, maybe later, my crack production team,
00:17:18.020 we can pull Youngkin at St. John's Church in Richmond for the second hour.
00:17:24.480 Governor Youngkin went for Patrick Henry a couple weeks ago.
00:17:27.100 Patrick Henry gave me the Give Me Liberty, Give Me Death speech in the church in Richmond,
00:17:34.720 St. John's, that I believe gave sustenance to the patriots.
00:17:41.980 This is pre-revolutionaries up in Massachusetts,
00:17:45.360 commonwealth of Massachusetts,
00:17:46.800 because it showed that there was at least an element in Virginia.
00:17:51.820 In Virginia, Pennsylvania, I guess New York and Massachusetts were the big four, right?
00:17:56.440 And showed that at least the South was going to be somehow potentially united in this.
00:18:05.680 One thing about the revolution, when you study this,
00:18:09.160 the enormous complexity and thought that went behind every move,
00:18:14.140 whether it was the British move or the American move.
00:18:17.940 I mean, Gage was the Expeditionary Force commander, very smart guy,
00:18:25.260 kind of sympathetic to the colonists, didn't want to drop a heavy hand,
00:18:30.660 was pushed by London constantly to be tougher on the colonists.
00:18:38.240 Today, the actual battle itself at Lexington and then at Concord,
00:18:42.540 and then the retreat or the tactical retreat or return back to Cambridge and Boston
00:18:47.180 was nothing short of a catastrophe for the British, 0.52
00:18:50.720 although they showed, particularly Colonel Smith,
00:18:53.000 who gets blamed a lot, the British commander in the field,
00:18:57.100 his steady hand, kind of patience and courage under fire,
00:19:03.660 saved so many of the British and kind of, at least at the beginning, 0.75
00:19:09.060 tried to save the rebels.
00:19:12.540 Do I have Raheem?
00:19:13.680 Raheem.
00:19:14.000 So a couple of things we're going to do today.
00:19:15.180 I got Philip Patrick laying in the second hour and Raheem Kassam now.
00:19:17.640 I always like to, because when you're raised in the United States,
00:19:22.760 the American Revolution is taught one way.
00:19:25.520 It used to be.
00:19:27.060 Now, who knows how the hell they even mention it in public schools with kids.
00:19:32.400 But it was taught one way.
00:19:34.400 It's later in life as you start to broaden your reading and you read about the massive fights they had in commons
00:19:41.800 and the massive fights that even the British aristocracy part of it was torn with not just empathy for the colonists.
00:19:50.080 And this is the same time going on, basically, that India is kind of coming online. 0.90
00:19:55.420 And there's certain members of the British aristocracy, and Raheem joins me,
00:20:00.300 that understood and had a vision that this could be the biggest empire in world history,
00:20:04.140 bigger than the Roman Empire,
00:20:05.260 that the naval supremacy or the rising naval supremacy of the British
00:20:10.860 connected with basically the South Asian, you know, the wonders and riches of India and North America,
00:20:20.400 because they'd already won Canada in the French and Indian Wars on the Plains of Abraham
00:20:24.260 with one of the greatest figures in British history, General Wolfe, defeating Moncombe.
00:20:31.240 They thought they were on a roll, but it was much of the debate, Raheem,
00:20:35.520 was almost like, I call the American Revolution from the British side their Vietnam. 0.58
00:20:41.060 It was intense and hotly debated and never fully united.
00:20:45.000 It's one of the reasons I think King George, at least my perception, you may differ,
00:20:48.920 that King George and his team, he kept putting in tougher and tougher and more maximalist foreign secretaries,
00:20:58.120 and they kept putting pressure on the field commanders, many of whom like Gage and later the Howe brothers,
00:21:03.600 Admiral Howe and General Howe, were quite sympathetic to the Americans.
00:21:09.200 So how are you guys, has it actually taught in England?
00:21:13.160 How are you taught about the American Revolution, Raheem?
00:21:15.300 Well, thanks for that question to start, Steve.
00:21:21.660 I regret to inform my American friends that we were actually not taught the Revolution really at all.
00:21:30.680 At least when I was at school, you know, we learned more about MLK than we did your nation's founding.
00:21:37.320 And indeed, you know, what I think now, as a grown man, having, as you just said, done my extended reading and research as I grew up,
00:21:47.880 and especially as I began coming to America and encountering people like you who have, you know,
00:21:53.840 encyclopedic knowledge of these events, start to realize, actually, that this wasn't just an American story.
00:22:01.740 It's predominantly an American story, but it's also the story of really, really,
00:22:07.420 and maybe one day you and I can write this book together, Steve,
00:22:11.120 how the dominoes fell in the UK, leading the UK to be in its current shape today.
00:22:19.000 Because, of course, it was the friction between the Whigs and the Tories,
00:22:25.000 the two dominant political powers in Parliament.
00:22:28.600 That chasm became bigger and bigger as the War of Independence went on.
00:22:36.440 The Whigs were far more sympathetic to the cause of liberty.
00:22:41.120 They were far more sympathetic to the colonists and their rights as freeborn Englishmen, really, is what they saw them.
00:22:50.080 And the Tories were far more intent on cracking the whip, cracking down, bringing these people to heel.
00:22:57.840 How dare you? You know, we funded the Seven Years' War, the French-Indian War.
00:23:01.760 We got you through that mess. We're just trying to recoup some money.
00:23:06.080 And so British politics at the time really started to come apart at the seams in that moment, too.
00:23:13.460 And I suspect that that is why we actually failed to learn it in our history classes growing up as young men and women,
00:23:21.380 because there isn't really a settled narrative about what went on and how it went down.
00:23:27.620 And I imagine if actually we try and get to that settled narrative,
00:23:31.100 it's a narrative that most modern British politicians don't want to have to address.
00:23:36.020 You have to go back.
00:23:38.080 I do it all the time.
00:23:39.400 You know, my second book, Enoch Was Right,
00:23:41.320 I talk about, you know, the differences between Whiggism and Toryism all of the time.
00:23:45.700 And actually, you know, it's really funny because you can see those arguments still raging in the United States, too.
00:23:51.760 Now, you call them different things, but you can still see the same philosophical arguments raging today.
00:23:57.460 It's a shame, I think, because there were so many moments of great historical intrigue.
00:24:04.240 You and I talked last night about, you know, when Ben Franklin was summoned in 1774 to the cockpit on Whitehall
00:24:10.280 and was harangued and harassed by the Solicitor General, which really marked his moment,
00:24:15.100 his big change in how he approached the separation between the colonists and Britain.
00:24:22.420 And there are so many moments that are now being lost to the fact that we don't actually talk about it anymore.
00:24:27.460 There aren't really a prevailing number of British historians that deal with that subject matter.
00:24:34.040 The pivot to India was very quick afterwards.
00:24:37.080 We sort of turned to that as the jewel in the crown of the British Empire.
00:24:41.980 And everything else before that has sort of been swept under the rug.
00:24:45.740 We don't like to talk about it.
00:24:47.600 On July 4th, of course, we have our fun with it in the same way you guys do back in our direction.
00:24:54.580 But in a serious sense, there's a huge gaping hole in British history as far as Britain's concerned.
00:25:04.460 You know, I want to bring it to the contemporary.
00:25:07.200 I would actually say that Nigel Farage, the Brexit movement and the reform movement now that's overtaking it,
00:25:12.720 is kind of their moment.
00:25:14.200 They missed it a couple hundred years ago.
00:25:16.460 But you see it happen.
00:25:17.200 And folks, just also remember, please, let's put a couple of pins and things to think about.
00:25:21.700 Both the American Revolution and the French Revolution started with kind of the same thing.
00:25:28.900 Owing debt, having big debt payments because of wars, and having to raise taxes.
00:25:35.780 It was about taxes.
00:25:36.640 The French and Indian War, what the British or what the folks in Commons were saying is that, hey, we really went in the hock on this thing.
00:25:45.560 And, yes, the colonists are colonists.
00:25:47.460 But, you know, America is kind of, you know, it's got its own kind of economics.
00:25:52.540 And we're going to have to get payback.
00:25:54.660 We need you guys to pitch in and give a little something for the effort.
00:25:59.080 And the Americans, as Americans want to do, not big names in taxes, right?
00:26:04.020 Later, the French coming in and essentially bailing us out with capital and troops later in the war, in the eight years.
00:26:12.160 The recognition there was central to victory.
00:26:14.940 The money they ran up, they had to call the states general together later to try to figure out how to take more money from the peasants and the church and whatever to pay for their crushing debt.
00:26:26.120 Just put a pin in that for today.
00:26:28.520 Also, Sam Adams and Hancock, they were going to Lexington to get Adams and Hancock.
00:26:32.720 Why were Adams and Hancock such leaders?
00:26:35.520 Well, you could argue, and this is maybe a little rough, but Hancock and Adams were two of the freebooters.
00:26:41.860 They were opposed principally not just the heavy hand of government but also the crown giving monopolistic charters or writs to things like the British East India Company, Rahim, who became so prominent and actually in India with Clive.
00:26:57.640 In fact, the way they conquered, really conquered India was through a private company, right? 0.95
00:27:02.900 Wellington and guys went over, there's young officers in the British Army, quite small.
00:27:06.560 It was really Clive and people like that that were officers of the British East India Company, and the Americans didn't like these monopolies.
00:27:16.260 They thought the monopolies were way too powerful.
00:27:19.640 The last thing is, Rahim, I want you to stick around because we've got modern politics to tie it back.
00:27:24.060 But the last thing is that even deals that were talked about, about representation in commons and maybe doing a commons or a parliament in the United States or having representation,
00:27:32.260 besides the demographic, they were worried about the Americans overwhelming it, it wasn't enthusiastically grabbed because the Americans thought commons was bought and paid for.
00:27:44.100 That it was basically the crown and the aristocracy in the interest of like the British East India Company, the monopolists, had bought and paid for commons.
00:27:54.500 Do any of these, are any of these themes relevant today?
00:27:58.420 Hey, how about all of them?
00:28:00.580 It's kind of the same fight 250 years later.
00:28:04.800 Rahim Kassam is our guest.
00:28:06.560 We're also going to have Julie Kelly. 0.92
00:28:07.360 In 1 o'clock in the morning, a.m., Eastern Daylight Time, in the dead of night, the Supreme Court let out a ruling last night, directly tied to our freedom, and goes back to 1798 in the Alien Enemies Act that was in, I think, John Adams' presidency.
00:28:27.840 Then it was about the French and the dangers of the French Revolution and people over here from the French Revolution.
00:28:33.160 That was used to ship these, the illegal alien invaders out. 1.00
00:28:39.440 The Supreme Court says right now, no way.
00:28:42.740 Heard me talk about MyPatriotSupply because I trust them when it comes to my family's well-being.
00:28:48.300 And I just got word they're doing something they've never done before.

00:29:51.900 Hey, welcome back.
00:30:11.900 It's Saturday, 19 April, Year of War, 2025, 250 years ago today at Lexington and Concord.
00:30:19.760 The first shots in the American Revolution.
00:30:23.800 Raheem Ghassam is with us this morning.
00:30:26.540 Our England, our closest ally now, after many years, decades, people actually argue.
00:30:33.200 I make the point the Revolution didn't really stop militarily until Andrew Jackson in 1815, the Battle of New Orleans,
00:30:43.380 which decimated Wellington's regiments, part of Wellington's army that came here from the Peninsula Campaign,
00:30:51.240 where they had defeated Napoleon's armies.
00:30:53.720 He then came with his brother-in-law and two other major generals, two New Orleans,
00:30:59.180 and still the British were still fighting the War of 1812 because the British were all over the Ohio territories
00:31:05.540 and pressing us in.
00:31:09.760 They burned Washington.
00:31:11.060 And then Jackson, the greatest military defeat actually in the field ever for the British Army.
00:31:16.340 Three major generals died in combat that day, including Wellington's brother-in-law.
00:31:21.740 And then there's a whole raft of historical analysis of how the British were in back of
00:31:29.080 or pushing on the American Civil War with the southern colonies,
00:31:32.280 that the independence of the south was only going to be temporary
00:31:35.140 until they had some sort of hookup with the British.
00:31:41.080 Raheem Ghassam, to take you to modern times, the issue of taxes,
00:31:45.720 the issue of monopolistic power, right?
00:31:51.000 The issue of control, of commons being too corrupt.
00:31:54.280 One of the big fights in commons was who was on the payroll and who was not.
00:31:58.280 People didn't even think commons actually represented the people.
00:32:01.100 I mean, British politics was in turmoil at that time.
00:32:04.220 And what's amazing, and you never, I didn't even, you know, like,
00:32:08.480 we're so, there's such one, there's an angle of attack here when you're a kid,
00:32:14.340 or at least back in the 60s, of learning about the American Revolution.
00:32:20.180 It's only later, and I think the book I started with was The Revolution Through British Eyes.
00:32:25.220 And that was, I think, after I was in the Navy.
00:32:28.060 I think it was a naval officer and started to read that.
00:32:30.600 And as I was, you start to really study Lord Nelson and Horatio Nelson in the Napoleonic Wars.
00:32:38.840 It was a time of turmoil, but so many of the issues today,
00:32:41.540 and I argue that what Nigel Farage is one of the greatest individuals in the history of British politics,
00:32:48.240 because he basically gave the British you, as his wingman,
00:32:52.820 you guys got the British people, or united the British people to get their sovereignty back with Brexit,
00:32:58.780 which was the precursor of the MAGA revolution that hit, the tsunami that hit in November of 2016.
00:33:05.960 You guys actually won your freedom, quote-unquote, in June of 2016.
00:33:12.140 And as you know, we were covering it nonstop with Breitbart.
00:33:14.360 You were actually the wingman for Nigel on that great victory.
00:33:19.160 But it's fought, you know, you're 10 years later, and now you've got the Reform Party,
00:33:24.100 and the Tories are falling, and it's amazing that it appears all the fights that were in the American Revolution
00:33:30.060 about freedom and having your sovereignty, the British people today are in the middle of that
00:33:34.660 against these globalists, and to be brutally frank, an invasion in Britain
00:33:39.180 that is far more insidious than the invasion that took place here.
00:33:42.700 And you called it with two books that at the time you were mocked and ridiculed
00:33:46.840 and really ostracized, the No-Go Zone book that you so courageously went to Europe and researched,
00:33:52.800 and then Enoch Powell, which is a brilliant work on a guy that's one of the giants of the 20th century
00:33:58.320 but is dismissed by so many people.
00:34:01.080 Rahim Kassam, your thoughts?
00:34:02.140 Yeah, thanks, Steve.
00:34:05.160 It's interesting because nowadays I'll meet, you know, kind of mainstream corporate or left media journalists,
00:34:11.860 you know, kind of every day nowadays, right?
00:34:14.880 And you've probably experienced the same thing I have in Washington, D.C., at least,
00:34:18.820 where they also kind of want to talk to you behind the scenes and be like,
00:34:21.700 hey, by the way, you got it all right, and we got it all wrong,
00:34:24.240 and, you know, we'd really like to course correct and all of this stuff.
00:34:26.780 And I'll talk to them about this stuff.
00:34:29.340 I'll talk to them about No-Go Zones, about mass migration into the Western world, 0.99
00:34:33.300 about Enoch Powell, you know, an extremely contentious subject.
00:34:37.440 And they all kind of, you know, whereas 10 years ago, 15 years ago,
00:34:41.180 they would have, you know, got up off the table, thrown a martini in my face,
00:34:45.800 and called me a racist and stormed out.
00:34:47.860 They all sort of look at me now sullen-faced and go, yeah, yeah, I guess that was right after all.
00:34:54.060 And it's really shocking.
00:34:57.020 It's not shocking to be right, because we've kind of called all of it all along.
00:35:01.820 And, you know, for us, it's screamingly obvious in the face every single day
00:35:06.220 what is going on in these towns and cities.
00:35:08.900 You know, take even the most heinous parts of it out, right,
00:35:14.040 which are the rape gangs, Rotherham, Oldham, all across the U.K. and Europe,
00:35:20.240 these atrocities taking place, sexual terrorism taking place across the continent.
00:35:29.120 And even if you just look at the very basics of it, it takes us back to our last segment,
00:35:35.500 which is actually Britain never really got to grips with what it was politically
00:35:42.020 after the American Revolution.
00:35:45.180 There were moments, there were certainly flashes of direction and rectitude.
00:35:54.740 Churchill is a great example of that.
00:35:57.780 You know, the old blitz spirit, as we call it. 0.88
00:36:01.340 But realistically, there hasn't been an actual trajectory, an actual course for the nation.
00:36:07.400 But hang on, let's go back in time.
00:36:11.360 Let's go back in time, because this gets to the heart of the MAGA movement's fight
00:36:17.000 against the deep state and against the globalists, the nationalists versus the globalists.
00:36:22.260 In the failure, and there were many people not just rooting for the colonists,
00:36:31.220 but saying, hey, these guys may be right, and we ought to apply that to ourselves.
00:36:34.820 There was a fundamental basic decision made in that time that England was going to be an empire.
00:36:42.520 Before, England was just a small country.
00:36:45.200 You know, you had part of France, but you were continually fighting the central powers
00:36:49.840 or the powers in Europe, and you were not an empire.
00:36:52.820 In fact, the crown always had a tough time paying the bills.
00:36:56.560 This is why you guys had guys like Francis Drake and privateers, the Eric Princes of their day, right?
00:37:01.480 There was a fundamental decision made by the business entities, the money and the aristocracy,
00:37:09.580 and this is why people consider it common so corrupt, that we're going to be an empire.
00:37:14.280 This is what happened in the United States at World War II.
00:37:19.760 We were thinking about it before, but in World War II, we were never supposed to be an empire.
00:37:24.280 Our revolutionary generation and framers warned us about this very thing that they saw happening to their mother country.
00:37:32.820 Many of these revolutionaries and colonists had deep feelings for England.
00:37:36.080 In the debates later, a year later, on the Declaration of Independence, which is essentially a declaration of war against the crown,
00:37:45.900 Dickinson and these guys fiercely went after John Adams because they still had a love for their mother country as Englishmen.
00:37:54.620 They were still Englishmen, although they set up a provisional government.
00:37:57.540 The English interest, the elites, the oligarchs in England made a fundamental decision looking at India and looking at North America that they were going to be an empire.
00:38:08.960 And they had the Navy and they had a strategy and how to do it.
00:38:11.860 And England fundamentally changed.
00:38:13.360 They had the Industrial Revolution basically at the same time.
00:38:16.320 England changed and you lost all – remember, all the discussion about rights and liberty, all this, freedom, all came from our English – these were Englishmen that brought that up.
00:38:26.460 And that's what's never been grasped.
00:38:29.600 And that's what's happening to the United States.
00:38:32.420 The same thing that happened in England around that time of the Napoleonic Wars and the drive to become an empire by the elites in the country is what happened post-World War II.
00:38:44.140 This is why so many people you meet, Raheem, say, you know, I just – there was no great awakening.
00:38:52.140 They supported Bush in the wars in the Middle East.
00:38:54.640 They just – as Republicans, they just naturally supported tax cuts for the wealthy, wars in the Middle East, just wars because of this expanding empire.
00:39:03.880 That's the MAGA revolution.
00:39:05.500 The MAGA revolution is the scales come down off your eyes and you say, hey, this is not what this country was ever set to do.
00:39:12.480 We were not ever set up to be everywhere in the world to be a policeman and be on all these global institutions in the United Nations and NATO and, you know, all these – the World Health Organization to take the sovereignty for the American people.
00:39:26.840 What has our fight been for 10 years here?
00:39:29.340 It's to get our sovereignty back.
00:39:30.600 What has the fight – the Supreme Court last night in the middle of the night said, no, right now temporarily hold.
00:39:37.300 You do not get to ship even the worst of the worst.
00:39:40.880 Forget the 10 million illegal aliens here that is a – it's a cancer on our sovereignty. 1.00
00:39:46.800 And look at the media fighting it.
00:39:48.660 This is about empire and about imperial power.
00:39:51.060 250 years ago today, a handful of people said, hey, guess what?
00:39:57.240 They're not going to tell us what to do.
00:39:59.040 And if we've got to stand here and fight, if we've got to fight on this commons and later if we've got to fight the foot of that bridge, we'll fight.
00:40:05.660 And, you know, it took them eight years.
00:40:08.100 And England didn't do that.
00:40:09.240 And now that is what Nigel Farage and Rahim Kassam and others now – used to be UKIP and now the Reform Party.
00:40:16.420 You're, I think, eventually having your revolution that you're not Singapore in the Thames. 0.98
00:40:21.660 You're actually going to get the independence for England that you kind of let your fellow countrymen take in America and become free at least for a while, at least 200 years before we went down this path of imperialism.
00:40:35.400 Sir, your thoughts?
00:40:36.400 It was a lot there.
00:40:40.560 I think just to start, I haven't even managed to go through the details of the Supreme Court 1 a.m., you know, under the darkness of night.
00:40:52.760 Usurpation, really, of justice policy and immigration policy.
00:40:56.760 You know, we have spun for the last weeks and months now in circles arguing whether or not you can have judges making – and it could be the highest judge in the land, like the Supreme Court.
00:41:10.920 But taking executive policy and kind of putting it under their belts.
00:41:15.980 And this is just another example of kind of how – exactly what you said, kind of how you end up in a mess like Britain ended up in a mess.
00:41:24.560 Because effectively what ended up happening – and here's the thing.
00:41:27.360 When you guys remember and you guys learn about your war of independence, you kind of learn – and not you, Steve, because you've said it very eloquently.
00:41:35.700 But most people kind of just learn like, oh, hey, the king, and he was trying to rule over us, and he was dictator, and we wanted to be free.
00:41:42.940 And it kind of wasn't like that.
00:41:44.780 The reality was these were one people.
00:41:48.680 You can say it was two people because of the distinction over the seas.
00:41:52.600 But they were kind of one people, and they were – it was a philosophical battle that was really taking place.
00:41:58.560 And again, I'll keep coming back to it.
00:42:00.100 It was the distinction really between the free-minded, whiggish, more small-L liberal class of people and those who were loyal to the crown and who were monarchists and who understood the British society had only got to where it was because of deference as a concept, right? 0.85
00:42:20.220 This is what Badgett, I believe, wrote about.
00:42:24.220 And it's interesting when you try to unpack how these people – they were all kind of pulling in different directions, right?
00:42:32.900 They weren't just two factions.
00:42:34.240 They were a multitude of factions.
00:42:35.700 Right.
00:42:36.120 A multitude of factions, like today.
00:42:37.980 Yeah, and it's like – for Americans nowadays, it's sort of hard to see how the Brits back then would have been like, well, of course, we shouldn't be following in their footsteps.
00:42:46.380 But Samuel Johnson, I think it was, who said, how can we hear the loudest yelps of liberty from the drivers of Negroes? 1.00
00:42:55.060 And so there was all of this pent-up concern over what the colonists were doing, how they were approaching the implementation of liberty.
00:43:06.820 And I think it bears, you know, decades and decades more study into this because, as I said right at the beginning of our conversation about this, we haven't actually learned it in so very long that actually it's lost to us.
00:43:21.500 We don't know those arguments.
00:43:23.260 The House of Commons today is nothing like the House of Commons back then.
00:43:26.220 The people in power today are nothing like the people in power back then.
00:43:28.980 And what you're seeing with Nigel Farage and with the Reform Party is actually a movement that is rooted in probably more whiggishness than even I'm comfortable with. 1.00
00:43:39.960 You're probably more of a wig than I am.
00:43:41.720 I consider myself a small-tea Tory.
00:43:46.020 Hang on one second.
00:43:47.640 A barroom that you're right.
00:43:48.780 Just hang on for a second.
00:43:49.560 Short break.
00:43:52.220 Health isn't just a personal issue.
00:43:54.380 It's a family issue, a community issue.
00:43:56.220 We're living in unpredictable times.
00:43:58.820 Supply chains can break down.
00:44:00.100 Hospitals can get overwhelmed.
00:44:01.520 And let's not even start on the natural disasters.
00:44:04.740 These aren't hypotheticals.
00:44:05.940 They're happening.
00:44:06.580 You see it here in the war room, and we all know it.

00:46:07.960 Birchgold.com slash BANNON, the end of the dollar empire, that is what the American empire is based upon today,
00:46:14.260 is our military and the United States dollar.
00:46:17.940 Well, it's weakening and it's losing its 9%, I think, already this year.
00:46:24.940 The spending's got to get under control, folks.
00:46:26.860 You're not going to do it until you get the spending under control.
00:46:28.780 Keep giving this warning, one day folks are going to listen.

00:46:38.600 Get, start building a relationship with these guys so you can understand where we're headed.
00:46:43.280 Rahim, thank you for joining us this morning.
00:46:45.060 I just, it's so amazing how many of the issues that were driving the fight for independence back then
00:46:52.400 are still today fighting, you know, in this fight for independence.
00:46:57.200 And I see, just like back at the revolution, there are, these are unbridgeable gaps.
00:47:04.900 The progressive left is, you know, dyed-in-the-wool globalist.
00:47:09.080 They want this country's sovereignty sucked away.
00:47:11.860 And there's no, you can't, it's not a debate, right?
00:47:15.220 They're not going to listen to you.
00:47:16.580 And so we're down to a political fight and one side's going to win and one side's going to lose.
00:47:21.120 Your thoughts, sir, on this Saturday.
00:47:25.260 Yeah, I think for all of the people out there, and I know, I know there are lots of you out there
00:47:30.140 who kind of think, you know, surely we'll at some point come to an accommodation.
00:47:34.420 Surely at some point there will be a compromise.
00:47:37.480 Surely at some point the nation will come together.
00:47:40.380 Well, listen, I hate to break it to you.
00:47:43.120 But right now, in this very moment, you have, I would say, the predominant majority of the
00:47:51.260 Democrat Party, its institutions, its think tanks, its elected representative and its base
00:47:58.680 all over the country that are more in favor of foreign terrorist groups and people, whether
00:48:06.820 it be gangbangers or Hamas, then they are in favor of the United States, its constitution, 0.83
00:48:13.360 its manufacturing base, its own people.
00:48:16.460 And until and unless you recognize and internalize that, then in my estimation, you will always
00:48:21.560 be living in cloud cuckoo land.
00:48:23.360 It is a fight.
00:48:24.460 It is a fight to the finish.
00:48:26.680 And the finish line looks like what the country ends up being like, right?
00:48:31.600 And this Supreme Court decision this morning, it's a hurdle.
00:48:34.360 And nobody should be slumped in their chairs and thinking, oh, my gosh, we've lost this
00:48:38.620 fight.
00:48:38.880 It's a hurdle.
00:48:39.620 And it's just another hurdle that we'll have to leap.
00:48:42.080 You guys are used to it now.
00:48:43.420 Your calves are well trained.
00:48:44.680 Your quads are well trained.
00:48:46.300 We've done it through many election cycles now.
00:48:49.860 We face it in the United Kingdom as well in 2029 with the general election coming up there.
00:48:56.020 You know, Nigel has another hurdle ahead of him on May the 1st, a couple of weeks time.
00:49:00.460 We're fighting these together.
00:49:01.940 We're fighting them at the same time.
00:49:03.000 And the other thing to know is that, well, whereas once upon a time, I think people like
00:49:07.720 you and I, Steve, were kind of voices shouting into the wilderness at a certain point.
00:49:11.900 I know President Trump certainly was, especially when he was talking about tariffs and trade,
00:49:16.180 you know, when he was on Oprah in the 1990s or whatever, and people kind of scratched their
00:49:19.480 heads and look all, I believe you used the word corn-fused at him.
00:49:24.120 And now look, you know, whether it's Brazil or El Salvador or what's going on in Germany
00:49:31.660 or France or Italy or whatever, right?
00:49:35.080 Suddenly, we find ourselves with more than just being lone voices in the wilderness.
00:49:45.100 And I think, you know, the perfect analogy, right, for your war of independence, which
00:49:51.300 was at the very start of it, you had a cadre of ragtag idealists who just were out there
00:50:00.180 screaming, hey, you know, this ain't going to happen, not on our watch.
00:50:03.900 And really, I mean, from the British Parliament all the way through to the colonists living
00:50:07.220 next door to these people, people like Jefferson were saying, what the heck are you talking about?
00:50:12.400 And over time, and with patience and with, you know, with eloquence and stick-to-itiveness,
00:50:19.940 they actually ended up forming a majority of people who ended up changing history forever.
00:50:27.780 Yeah, a major day in history.
00:50:29.540 Raheem, thank you on a Saturday.
00:50:31.120 I know you're incredibly busy.
00:50:32.500 How do people get all the great material putting up at National Pulse and all your...
00:50:37.860 Yeah, I'm here.
00:50:38.360 We just put up a story on thenationalpulse.com just now.

00:51:00.540 And I'm just uploading my segment from Matt Gaetz's show last night as well, where we talked
00:51:05.700 a little bit about this Bukele and Van Hollen stuff.
00:51:08.440 So lots going on.
00:51:09.740 Don't miss a beat.
00:51:11.520 The great Matt Gaetz, the great Raheem Ghassan.
00:51:13.920 By the way, Raheem, once again, great job on the books and great job on your fight with
00:51:18.120 Nigel Farage to get the independence, get the sovereignty of the British people back for
00:51:22.880 them a couple hundred years after we got ours.
00:51:27.340 So thank you so much, sir.
00:51:28.240 Appreciate you.
00:51:28.980 Thank you.
00:51:29.340 We're going to be doing a lot of coverage of the 250th.
00:51:35.460 60 days from now, one of the sons of liberty, Dr. Joseph Warren, one of the most prominent
00:51:41.360 members of the early figures in the early part of the revolution.
00:51:45.280 60 days from now, the retreat after Concord Bridge, when they got back to Cambridge and Boston, two months
00:51:54.500 from now, the siege of Boston and Bunker Hill.
00:51:57.140 So this thing starts rolling and picking up speed, leading to July 4th next year, the 250th commemoration anniversary of the
00:52:08.460 declaration of war against the British crown, the declaration of independence and the assault
00:52:14.220 of the British, the largest expeditionary force ever sent anywhere to the American colonies
00:52:19.440 and the slugfest that took place in the first six months of the revolution.
00:52:25.180 Remember, folks, always and everywhere, we had to fight for this.
00:52:29.260 It wasn't given to us.
00:52:30.880 It was not given to us.
00:52:33.520 And these giants that we stand on the shoulder of, and the giants are not just the intellectuals
00:52:39.860 and the elites on the revolutionary side.
00:52:41.700 It is also the common man, people like Solomon Brown, in Lexington Common today, 250 years
00:52:49.120 ago on this very day.
00:52:50.560 Short break.
00:52:51.160 Back in the War Room.
00:52:58.800 What if he had the brightest mind in the War Room delivering critical financial research
00:53:03.720 every month?
00:53:05.240 Steve Bannon here.
00:53:06.380 War Room listeners know Jim Rickards.
00:53:08.060 I love this guy.
00:53:08.900 He's our wise man, a former CIA, Pentagon, and White House advisor with an unmatched grasp
00:53:14.740 of geopolitics and capital markets.
00:53:17.120 Jim predicted Trump's Electoral College victory exactly 312 to 226, down to the actual number
00:53:25.340 itself.
00:53:26.500 Now he's issuing a dire warning about April 11th, a moment that could define Trump's presidency
00:53:31.960 in your financial future.
00:53:33.560 His latest book, Money GPT, exposes how AI is setting the stage for financial chaos, bank
00:53:40.500 runs at lightning speeds, algorithm-driven crashes, and even threats to national security.
00:53:45.760 Right now, War Room members get a free copy of Money GPT when they sign up for Strategic
00:53:51.320 Intelligence.
00:53:52.340 This is Jim's flagship financial newsletter, Strategic Intelligence.
00:53:56.660 I read it, you should read it.
00:53:59.260 Time is running out.
00:54:00.200 Go to RickardsWarRoom.com.
00:54:02.040 That's all one word, Rickards War Room, Rickards with an S.

00:54:07.820 That's RickardsWarRoom.com.
00:54:10.220 Do it today.
00:54:12.740 Hey, War Room.
00:54:13.680 Hope you're all doing well.
00:54:14.820 My name's Trevor Comstock.
00:54:16.200 I'm one of the co-creators of Sacred Human.
00:54:17.840 And I wanted to share just a little bit more about our brand for those who may not know
00:54:21.500 of us yet.
00:54:22.700 But about six months ago, we decided to launch Sacred Human with really the simple mission
00:54:27.440 being to provide American-made natural supplements without all the artificial nonsense.
00:54:33.900 So unfortunately, as many of you know, a lot of these big corporate supplements will include
00:54:38.400 things like preservatives, artificial ingredients, and other additives that really aren't benefiting
00:54:43.440 your health.
00:54:43.980 So that's why we created Sacred Human, really trying to fill this gap of quality supplements.
00:54:49.740 And of course, the beef liver being our flagship products.
00:54:52.840 For those who don't know, beef liver is loaded with highly bioavailable ingredients such as
00:54:57.800 vitamin A, B12, zinc, CoQ10, etc.
00:55:02.380 And because it is 100% grass-fed and natural, your body is able to absorb these nutrients far
00:55:08.560 better than taking any other synthetic multivitamin or any other synthetic vitamin in
00:55:13.960 general.
00:55:14.900 So we have some other amazing products.
00:55:16.960 But if you'd like to check us out, you can go to sacredhumanhealth.com.
00:55:20.480 And cheers to your health.
