Todd McCartan and Tim Kennedy were in the Oval with President Trump the other day as he signed executive orders. They were there to witness the moment. They talk about how the mainstream media had no interest in what was going on.
00:01:13.700As President Trump at that time, tried to read what, everything he's doing now in trade, spent two years at the beginning of his administration.
00:01:20.740The 2019 deal with the Chinese was stunning.
00:01:25.520How detailed, and they just walked away from it.
00:01:53.920Now, so the other day we were live in the Oval as President Trump does these signs of executive orders and, and, and, and does these press avails.
00:02:27.780Tell us what, what happened and who was, who was in the Oval with you guys?
00:02:32.980We had about a half a dozen wounded veterans, amputees, guys that were fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq, obviously kind of pouring their souls out about the state of veteran affairs.
00:02:45.000Doug Collins, Secretary Collins, his work there.
00:02:47.380But President Trump, man, what an absolute gem.
00:02:51.820He's taken pens, signing these guys' legs.
00:02:54.800He's giving them, you know, the President Troy, the President coin.
00:02:59.100And these guys were literally crying in the Oval Office.
00:03:21.060They were reforms in trade and commerce, international relationships.
00:03:23.940And all they wanted to do was hit talking points, you know, trying to get gotcha moments with the President as he's surrounded by wounded veterans.
00:03:49.760No interest in what had just transpired.
00:03:51.540And less than no interest in President Trump's executive orders.
00:03:54.600No, no, they, you know, to that, Steve, we wheeled a couple of these guys in in wheelchairs, a couple of them with, you know, double amputees walking in, guys missing arms.
00:04:07.560And, you know, the veteran affairs right now, they're in just like the rest of the government.
00:04:12.640A lot of transition, radical change under Secretary Collins.
00:04:16.780You know, the intelligence community is fighting against embedded operatives, partisan operatives.
00:04:21.200And we're seeing that across the whole entire government right now.
00:04:26.120And President Trump, each and every single one of them, sincerely thanks from the bottom of his heart.
00:04:31.800One year ago to the day, we were with President Trump again as he was talking about veteran issues.
00:04:37.520And half of the guys in the room had President Trump visit them while they were in their hospital beds.
00:04:45.020Just such a remarkable statement about how much attention he was giving to our wounded heroes, to our veterans.
00:04:53.460And, you know, and even by extension to the military, making sure that this type of thing is preventable in the future because our adversaries are now scared to death about what the American military is going to look like in a couple of years.
00:05:04.920And you can tell that President Trump, it's a bond there that you can't break.
00:05:13.380It's not some phony politician coming in for a photo op.
00:05:15.960I want to talk – one of the things that he was having a good time with and the guys were having a good time with, but I just want to make sure he got it right.
00:05:23.480The thing about he kept asking guys like, I think it was the coin, what color do you want?
00:06:32.460Or do you like the gold, like the Trump gold?
00:06:34.840Or do you like the military gunmetal gray?
00:06:37.920And, you know, it was a really sweet moment to see the politician barrier come down and to see the real Trump not in front of a camera, just in front of real men that fought for him.
00:07:14.220You need essentially your go bag ready to go.
00:07:17.120Talk to me about My Patriot Supply and your efforts there as the new spokesman.
00:07:20.600Yeah, yesterday, not in the Oval Office, but at the White House and the Eisenhower Building, we were part of a briefing.
00:07:28.500This is open source stuff, just predictive modeling about what the next couple of years look like.
00:07:33.800And there is going to be, obviously, we see the civil unrest.
00:07:37.580We see the resist movement looking for opportunities to destabilize both our allies and elements within our own government and our nation.
00:07:46.140And while the preparation aspect is super important, I have the battery wall from Grid Doctor for My Patriot Supply.
00:07:54.740It's spring here, and I got all of my seeds from My Patriot Supply.
00:07:59.080So if you've got elevated gardens, not only do we know scary times are ahead of us, and the best way is to prepare, is to get your stuff.
00:08:05.880But just on, like, the day-to-day things, there's just wonderful things.
00:08:09.600I'm a camper, I'm a hunter, I'm an outdoorsman.
00:08:12.640So I have battery packs that I can throw in my Land Cruiser and my motorcycle when I throw my kids, you know, in the back of the vehicle and we get to drive into someplace cool.
00:08:20.980And all of that is enabled because of the things that My Patriot Supply.
00:08:25.320So on the preparation side, you're 100% right.
00:08:32.580You have things for just survival basics.
00:08:35.740But then on just, like, the day-to-day, everything that you need, you can get there so you can really just enjoy life and not have to worry about what you're going to do.
00:08:44.360Heaven forbid the grid goes down from natural disasters, from a terrorist attack, or you're just driving out into the woods.
00:08:51.800You get to have everything that you need from one spot.
00:08:56.800Talk to me about the predictive modeling and what people are going to be thinking about.
00:08:59.740When they're thinking about planning for their own family's future, I know it's all open source.
00:09:03.600But just when you say the resist movement in both foreign and domestic, this is what I tried to say at this speech last night.
00:09:09.000I gave the keynote address here with the folks at the conference.
00:09:16.300You know, we have converging crises before us, right, economic and financial.
00:09:21.220You've got the kinetic part of the Third World War in Ukraine, in the Middle East, at least right now, may be expanding unless President Trump can somehow try to stop it.
00:09:31.360You've got the deportation issues, which are going to be huge because you've got 10 million people going.
00:09:36.260We're going to have a constitutional crisis because they're going to challenge President Trump.
00:09:39.580And we just had David Malpass here who takes a different perspective of you.
00:09:43.520But he also said the resist movement of Trump proofing the government against President Trump's changes, of Trump proofing international finance so that President Trump can't make the changes.
00:09:52.640He goes – and he says the resist movement is both in the imperial capital of D.C. and it's in every financial capital of the world.
00:09:59.040So when you look and you get this predictive modeling told to you, walk me through what you see as the next couple of years.
00:10:06.080So we're with this company called Rhombus, and they're an AI that's able to scrape every bit of data on historical events.
00:10:16.000And as you shape a bell curve of what happens in history, you start seeing outliers.
00:10:20.760And when you take those outliers and see what happens after them – so like if there's an economic collapse, if there's civil unrest, if there's a terrorist attack,
00:10:28.100what were the things that happened before that for a coup?
00:10:32.240All right, we're going to see civil unrest.
00:10:33.540We're going to see military doing certain types of activities around capitals or near borders.
00:10:38.460You're going to see the civilian populace with these partisan issues, and then you're going to see catalysts that kind of kick these things off.
00:10:45.440Well, when you have now hundreds of years of data, thousands of years of data, it gets really accurate about how it can predict.
00:10:52.580But about the resist element within our government, when you look at Director Collins, Secretary Hegseth, and Secretary Collins,
00:11:04.020each – especially in the intelligence community from Kash Patel to Pam Bondi to Tulsi Gabbard, Joe Kent, Dr. Gorka,
00:11:10.760you have true patriots that are trying to make radical change to save our constitutional republic.
00:11:19.240But just one degree down, you have these embedded operatives that are resisting them judicially.
00:11:27.040We see lawyers and we see judges that are without a doubt making bias and inappropriate non-constitutional decisions,
00:11:36.100going against the wishes of the administration, trying to slow everything.
00:11:40.840Then we see legislatively people trying to prevent people from being confirmed and just slowing the process to try to make this government less effective.
00:11:49.580And then the next order effect is our peer-level adversaries are fighting us via proxies economically, diplomatically, informationally,
00:11:59.800using Hamas and Hezbollah and the Houthis in Haiti, in Syria, the Taliban in Afghanistan.
00:12:07.660Those regions are intentionally being destabilized because we have to spend effort and time to try to stabilize these regions so they don't become breeding grounds.
00:12:16.540But it's a proxy war against our enemies, which is part of the resist movement because the people inside of the government
00:12:22.700and the large corporations that benefit from perpetual war are still trying to keep this ship going.
00:12:30.500And they are being really brilliant about it, and we're in a dangerous time in history.
00:17:03.220This exact spot was jam-packed with people last night, lining up to see the body of Pope Francis lying in state inside of St. Peter's Basilica.
00:17:14.260But right now, it's really thinned out.
00:18:16.260There were 500,000 people, individuals, went past the coffin of—to pay their respects in St. Peter's Basilica with John Paul II in the first 24 hours, as CBS reported.
00:18:34.080Of course, they're trying to find every excuse in the world since they played up how the world was so emotional and so distraught about this.
00:18:45.980Well, I'm glad we had the opportunity to play that CBS clip there because it absolutely confirms 1,000 percent the Warren's hot take on this situation on Easter Monday of this week.
00:18:57.740Look, I've been talking about—I've been roaming every day of this week, sort of milling around, talking to people, sort of gauging the temperature of the water, as it were.
00:19:06.380And it's exactly as I was saying right from the moment on Easter Monday itself, the day Pope, inverted commas, Francis, died.
00:19:13.900There is no great affection for him, which is a bit counterintuitive if your sources of information are the mainstream media.
00:19:24.760The only people who really are going to miss this guy are journalists in the mainstream media.
00:19:29.900Because he would—firstly, because he rang all of their bells, right, there's nothing the mainstream media likes more than someone inside the Catholic Church undermining the Catholic Church's teaching to win secular approval and plaudits.
00:19:50.460He was very good at coming up with expressions.
00:19:53.200So, Steve, basically, he was a great copy.
00:19:55.600Of course, mainstream media journalists are going to miss him.
00:20:00.020Now, you might have noticed that the Vatican put out a statement today saying that tomorrow, the funeral, they're expecting some 200,000 people to attend that funeral.
00:20:09.880Steve, I didn't know there were 200,000 journalists in the world to attend this funeral, because they're going to be the only people there.
00:20:18.720The barometer for this, exactly as I said this on Monday, is there were no crying nuns.
00:20:25.900If there was real, genuine affection for this Pope, there would have been crying nuns with the tears down the face beneath the apostolic palace praying the rosary.
00:20:36.900And there wasn't any. It was just tourists mending around, wandering around, indifferent.
00:20:42.100So, Steve, what does this mean for the future of the church, for the conclave?
00:21:22.500Are they going to double down on Francis' militant secularism, or will they try and walk it back?
00:21:29.780I don't – and that is to say, to walk it back slightly into a position of more moderacy.
00:21:34.960I don't believe we're going to be seeing a conservative crowd at this conclave.
00:21:39.360But there are various shades, if you will, of modernism.
00:21:43.300And that's where the fundamental question is.
00:21:46.180If you give me a moment to add a personal observation, Steve, as a practicing Catholic on this,
00:21:51.280just taking a step back, it is absurd that a church of 1.1 billion notional Catholics still has this incredibly medieval way of picking its earthly leader.
00:22:08.380It may have worked, of course, a thousand years ago when there were no means of constant communication and no means of active participation.
00:22:16.980But this current system that we have is patronizing and shows a great deal of contempt for the laity.
00:22:23.380And we're the ones that have to pay – you know, it's our collection to take money that keeps the Catholic church going on a day-to-day basis.
00:22:30.540I think that the official church hierarchy has shown nothing but contempt for the laity and incompetence of running the church from the sexual – the priestly sex scandals onwards.
00:22:42.920I think it is absolutely necessary for the laity to have a greater role in the running of the church.
00:22:48.720That includes the picking of the bishops and then includes the picking of the pope.
00:22:55.720That's close to – for Catholicism, isn't that close to heresy?
00:23:01.240I mean it almost sounds like for our Protestant brethren, that is how someone in the church would think that Protestants are much more engaged in who their minister is or in picking their ministers or going to church with certain ministers in the Catholic church.
00:23:15.480You've got to perish and you kind of get dealt with what the bishop deals you and they call the shots.
00:23:21.840And this is one of the issues with the pedophilia scandal.
00:23:24.660The priest – it's a very hierarchical run to a priest caste.
00:23:31.620You're essentially calling for the precinct strategy in the Catholic church that you saw it where we've revolutionized the Republican Party and turned into a worker in a middle-class party with direct engagement through the use of your human agency.
00:23:46.800Are you calling for that in the church?
00:23:48.760And isn't that against, if not the theology of the church, essentially custom and tradition for a couple of thousand years, sir?
00:24:08.980But in terms of the – isn't this the Protestantization of the church?
00:24:12.820Well, we had the Protestantization of the church in the Second Vatican Council, basically, in the liturgy,
00:24:18.380when the church ditched all of the specifically Catholic elements of its practice and belief.
00:24:27.100What we maintained was simply the secular power structure, right?
00:24:31.020Which is that – now, that's the thing, obviously, that the churchmen are going to fight to the last ditch in order to preserve their prerogatives of power, of course.
00:24:40.400However, when I mentioned the idea that the laity should be in charge – yeah, the laity should actually be in charge of electing the pope.
00:24:50.680That actually used to be the position of the Catholic church one and a half thousand years ago.
00:24:55.880So it was the people of Rome, by acclamation, that picked the successor to St. Peter.
00:25:03.160Then, after a couple of hundred years, it basically fell down to the Roman families, and they sort of had – they did sort of a bugging's turn between them for a few couple of hundred years.
00:25:12.700And then, eventually, this contemporary system of cardinal took the position.
00:25:18.380So, by the way, the point, as I'm saying, is that it's actually going back to the church's original position.
00:25:23.620And this is the tragedy of the institutional Catholic church.
00:25:26.960When it comes to power and money, they will fight with tooth and nail to protect their positions, their prerogatives, their privileges.
00:25:37.300When it comes to the rule of Jesus Christ on earth, they're the first to give up, to run away, and to cower in fear behind the secular powers of this world.
00:25:50.580Everything in the contemporary Catholic church is upside down.
00:25:54.960It's the laity, the believing Catholic laity now that has the faith, rather than the sort of piling shepherd that was supposed to keep in their marble palaces and their privileges.
00:26:06.520I thousand percent believe if you look what MAGA has done, what, if you will, the laity has done, taking over the Republican Party in the United States, that can only be a good thing if we bring the same thing to the Catholic church, because our Catholic leadership isn't Catholic, and the laity is.
00:26:29.080Ben, can you hang around for a moment?
00:26:32.360I want to hold you through, because we have breaking news out of Ukraine and out of Russia, and President Trump is deeply engaged in this negotiation.
00:26:41.340As you know, he's getting a little short on temper, about this, about the continual assaults and attacks and the recalcitrance of the Zelensky degree to economic deal or anything.
00:26:51.340One thing I want to say before we go to break, this was about the part of Francis or Bergoglio's papacy that struck me the most, to your point, was when he had the Amazon pagans kind of over in the Vatican and St. Peter's doing ceremonies.
00:27:07.520And some sort of conference they had on paganism or for this religion, and the pagans, who were indigenous people from the Amazon, obviously pagans as a pagan ritual, but they had more sincerity about their rituals than the highest hierarchy of the Catholic church.
00:27:27.360The young Austrian that took their symbol and threw it in the Tiber did it as a stroke to get back to original Catholicism, and they demonized him.
00:27:35.900It was a shocking moment when you realized that they don't, the hierarchy of the church aren't really that Catholic.
00:27:43.440They won't fight for Catholic doctrine.
00:27:45.780But the pagans were very sincere about theirs.
00:28:19.100Have you switched to Patriot Mobile yet?
00:28:21.080You'll get exceptional nationwide coverage because unlike most cell phone service providers, Patriot Mobile utilizes all three major U.S. networks.
00:28:31.860Switch today without sacrificing quality or service.
00:28:36.540They even add two numbers on two networks on one phone.
00:33:18.300I was telling Steve a couple months ago in here that we have a Google Ads guy, and he cannot believe the customer return rate we have because we have a good product.
00:34:17.500Before I leave you, we had Tim Kennedy on.
00:34:20.400He was there with the veterans, particularly the amputees, and the story is that President Trump had visited many of these when he was in his first term in the hospitals in Walter Reed and other places,
00:37:32.200The commander is the latest senior Russian military figure to be killed in a car bombing since the war began more than three years ago.
00:37:39.060That occurred just hours before President Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, met with Russian leader Vladimir Putin in Moscow.
00:37:46.180Kremlin aide tells Reuters the two men met for three hours and that there was a discussion of renewing negotiations between Russia and Ukraine.
00:39:47.880But he implied that, you know, following Ben Harnwell's advice, he's not going to get sucked in to months and months and months of negotiation.
00:39:56.620Tell us what's going on, particularly this mayor.
00:40:00.140We understand he's an anti-Zelensky guy.
00:40:02.040Is this guy going to have any role in these discussions?
00:40:07.640First, I think this week, next week, we're coming up to the 100th day, the psychologically important, the psychologically crucial 100th day mark since President Trump's inauguration.
00:40:18.480And America hasn't disengaged from Ukraine.
00:40:21.160And, of course, the president is saying he's not going to get sucked in.
00:40:23.820But that is exactly what is happening.
00:40:41.540The Kiev mayor, Vitaly Klitschko, a former boxing champion, there is no love lost between him and Zelensky.
00:40:52.240There's a far worse relationship between him and the other major principal rival for the presidency, Valery Zelensky, who's been exiled as Ukraine's ambassador to London.
00:41:08.880What is interesting about this guy, Zelensky has a slightly better relationship.
00:41:14.780I mean, the two of them talk, at least.
00:41:16.960These two guys famously haven't spoken for quite some time.
00:41:22.480I think this is the first time I've seen really anyone important on the Ukrainian side starting to talk openly about recognizing the reality on the ground.
00:41:39.140The Russians have obviously been doing it as part of Putin's negotiating position.
00:41:43.260I think President Putin this morning or yesterday reiterated this fact that he's ready to pause the war on contemporary, on the present contemporary battle lines.
00:41:53.360What is interesting about the mayor of Kiev saying this and being the first Ukrainian to do so, the first important Ukrainian politician to do so, is that he is a contender for the presidency, as I mentioned, Ambassador Zelensky.
00:42:09.280The importance being, Steve, even if most of the attention, I think, is focusing towards ambassadors, as the principal opposition.
00:42:22.080What is interesting is that for this guy, Mayor Vitaly Klitschko, to come out and say this, it's a political calculation that he is making.
00:42:33.620It's a political calculation that he is making because he realizes his future potential electorate, or even better, his future potential selectorate, no longer wants to fight this war and is ready to compromise on the present territorial lines.
00:42:51.940That's the important thing, Steve, I think, about Mayor Klitschko coming out and saying this.
00:42:55.880To use the boxing metaphor, he's given Zelensky a one-two jab to the head.
00:43:03.620On this, because he knows the appetite for war has died down.
00:46:20.240Look, a couple of people have said to me, asked me, why is President Trump going to the funeral of a man who clearly hated him, hated his movement, hated his ideas, hated everything that MAGA stands for?
00:46:44.360And the second thing is because I think he is cementing his status as the leader of Christendom.
00:46:54.300And he'll cement that status if he goes to the scene at the funeral.
00:46:58.640And what I mean by that is not only the political leader of Christendom, the whole of Christianity around the world, but also I think he's increasingly being seen as the spiritual leader of fighting those Christian values.
00:47:13.460And that is because Pope Francis himself vacated that territory.
00:47:17.860So that's another thing I think that reason that people should be able to look at why President Trump might be going to the funeral of someone who so clearly loathes him.
00:47:28.920Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on real quickly, because this is Notre Dame was another massive moment.
00:47:37.260But people in the progressives that watch this show, because they have to for news, heads are blowing up.
00:47:43.280How is a man that's not particularly churchy, right?
00:47:46.720How are you saying he's the spiritual leader of – he's the leader of Christendom, not just politically, but he's the leader of Christendom spiritually?
00:47:55.120Because people who are motivated by their Christian faith, not just Catholics, but also our great friends and brethren, the evangelicals, people who are motivated by their faith in Jesus Christ, look to Donald Trump to defend those values and to give them sustenance and reality, even on a spiritual level.
00:48:17.800We know that President Trump isn't a holy Joe.
00:48:23.500But frankly, neither do our cardinals or churchmen either.
00:48:28.140So if it's a choice of pretty much atheistic cardinals who are on the take, who have contempt for the Catholic faith, or Donald J. Trump, who shows a great openness to the Catholic faith, who are you going to look to for the spiritual sustenance?
00:48:57.880I love the idea that you're going to annex Greenland.
00:49:01.000I love the idea that you're going to annex Canada.
00:49:04.140But might I gently suggest for your 51st state annex, the Vatican City State, make that your first annexation, and then impose a genuine Catholic pope for us.
00:49:19.760And it will be the first Catholic pope that we've had since 1958.
00:49:24.200I just want to throw that idea out there, Stephen Parker.
00:49:27.880What a great, beautiful addition to the Union, Steve, the Vatican City State.
00:51:45.900They love it when I get on the War Room here and you guys make those calls because they know that they get the comfort that they're getting supported.
00:54:23.660I'm one of the co-creators of Sacred Human.
00:54:25.620And I wanted to share just a little bit more about our brand for those who may not know of us yet.
00:54:30.140But about six months ago, we decided to launch Sacred Human with really the simple mission being to provide American-made natural supplements without all the artificial nonsense.
00:54:40.440So, unfortunately, as many of you know, a lot of these big corporate supplements will include things like preservatives, artificial ingredients, and other additives that really aren't benefiting your health.
00:54:51.440So, that's why we created Sacred Human, really trying to fill this gap of quality supplements.
