the world order this is and it's the highly recommended it was given me as a heads up
00:03:10.580
by christopher leonard when i had christopher in friday a week ago today in kansas city missouri
00:03:17.540
because christopher lives out there and christopher as you know is the author of the fabulous
00:03:21.020
you know foundational text of the war room one of them uh the lords of easy money i've asked uh
00:03:29.020
jim records uh to come uh to come back uh to come on jim i there's so much on geopolitics i want to
00:03:38.380
take some time to go through this because i think that we need to help to start to frame this giving
00:03:43.360
the hurtling towards the crises of the summer of 2025 which will go down in history a hundred years
00:03:51.560
from now folks they're going to talk about this summer of what is going to happen and how and
00:03:58.200
who's going to win so jim i want to talk you know you had waltz the big headline is you know maga got
00:04:03.460
rid of waltz yesterday marco rubio is now going kiss and juries secretary of state national security
00:04:08.200
vice at least for a while front page financial times laura loomer gets up you know she gets a
00:04:14.200
hat tip you don't often see the financial times writing about laura loomer on their page one this
00:04:20.460
is the most important paper in the world goes to every decision maker in the world it's the reason
00:04:25.460
we break it down virtually every day for the war and posse because you guys are at that you are
00:04:30.820
decision makers you have created yourself into a political force that people pay attention to and
00:04:36.500
they understand you uh you have stroke and you have punch and you can land a punch and you can
00:04:42.800
take a punch more importantly records this confusion now the part of of getting something sorted on the
00:04:50.460
on the um kinetic part of the third world war which we're in it's not we're going to be in we're in
00:04:57.100
we're in deeper than in you know in 1939 1940 we're in it now uh president trump has made this a uh a
00:05:05.200
actual major element of his second term is to is to lay the guns down at least to come start to come
00:05:11.600
into frameworks i i think i just saw the new york post as we came on that they're kind of walking
00:05:17.280
away for a while they signed the they signed the quote-unquote uh you know economic deal or the rare
00:05:23.240
earths deal or whatever you want to call it but now they're saying hey there hasn't been enough
00:05:27.620
movement they're not these parties are not willing to listen to each other in uh you know is
00:05:32.980
fairly and so they're going to walk away get us up to speed where are we exactly in your mind and
00:05:38.900
where in the hell is this thing going well this is going to a uh a russian victory in ukraine now
00:05:45.460
we got to define victory they uh one one thing that strikes me about putin putin has been clear
00:05:50.640
and consistent from before the war in ukraine as to what his goals are by the way this war started
00:05:56.220
in 2008 when george bush said we're going to make ukraine part of nato it continued 2014 when the
00:06:03.120
cia and mi6 staged a coup you know we're supposed to love democracy well we overthrew a duly elected
00:06:07.940
leader etc putin took crimea shortly thereafter uh say what part of annexation do you not understand
00:06:14.660
you know nato and the united states uh and it kept escalating from there you know the role of
00:06:18.680
victoria newland my point is the u.s has been uh working to the u.s wanted this war the u.s has been
00:06:23.900
promoting this war for almost 20 years well we got it we got the war so anyway russia russia comes
00:06:29.860
in now you have to understand the russian way of war i'm sure you do it is slow methodical and lethal
00:06:35.740
they they have what they call cauldron they encircle the enemy they'll spend months taking every
00:06:41.480
village around a major logistics hub so that when they go you know go for the kill basically you
00:06:46.600
can surrender if you want but ukrainians typically don't some of them do or you get annihilated that's
00:06:51.320
that's all there is to it now right the problem right now trump is in exactly the position that lbj
00:06:56.880
was in i'll say early 1965 you know and uh you know 64 was election year and the great society and
00:07:04.540
all that but lbj inherited a war from eisenhower and jfk he could have done one of two things he could
00:07:10.540
have you know wound it up on some basis walked away said hey good luck or escalate which he did we
00:07:16.380
got to the point 500 000 troops 50 000 casualties 10 years of war etc johnson regretted it later but
00:07:24.180
that's not what he wanted trump's in exactly the same position today the question is is this going
00:07:28.160
to be biden's war uh and then trump ends it or ends u.s involvement i should put it that way but we
00:07:34.480
can get a deal with with putin or is it going to be sucked into escalation and the thing is it sounds
00:07:41.020
like you have to send in the 82nd airborne i mean just another weapon steal another money advance
00:07:45.800
another uh extension of time etc it all just drags out the war and it will very quickly be trump's war
00:07:53.300
the guy who's got this right by the way it's jd vance he understands it i'll give rubio some credit
00:07:58.300
well so by the way if i see if i criticize people it's never personal there could be good people but
00:08:03.640
waltz was a warmonger yeah general general kellogg was doing his thing so the kellogg-waltz plan said
00:08:09.020
we're going to have an unconditional ceasefire along the line of contact that's where are the
00:08:13.660
russian troops now line of contact show me a victorious winning power in the history of the
00:08:18.860
world that agreed to an unconditional ceasefire on the line of contact then the loser wants that
00:08:24.500
other people want it but if you're winning no you don't agree to that so putin wants the four
00:08:28.840
provinces donesk luhansk um uh hershan and zavuzuriya so he wants the four provinces uh kind of
00:08:36.820
hold on hang on hang on hold on slow down slow down slow down slow down when you say line of
00:08:41.600
contact what do you mean by that you mean actually with the armies are line of contact right now not
00:08:47.840
not the donbass not the eastern provinces not crimea not all the stuff they started with they
00:08:52.520
started with that given the debacle that the united both bush and obama administration pushing this
00:08:59.020
continue to lose and never really you know never really did anything except except uh exacerbate
00:09:05.460
the russians right so line of contact now you're saying but that's 30 that's a third of ukraine
00:09:11.020
correct that line of contact now right now now the four well the four provinces have been four and
00:09:17.660
plus crimea have been formally annexed and are part of the russian federation so if you ask the russians
00:09:22.980
you ask putin they're fighting on russian territory as far as they're concerned having so that's the
00:09:27.460
that's what they've done it has not been recognized internationally but but you know kind of who cares
00:09:31.800
that as far as russia is concerned that those provinces and crimea are part of russia the
00:09:36.820
problem is the the russian military the russian army have captured about two-thirds of that a little
00:09:42.360
bit more they are pushing towards the nipro river so there is a a ribbon or a band of territory that
00:09:49.020
the russians would say is part of the russian federation but the ukrainian troops are still
00:09:53.000
there and they have not been dislodged so that's so that's what the so the kellogg waltz plan
00:09:58.020
the waltz just you know moved on but the kellogg's waltz plan was to have an unconditional ceasefire
00:10:02.300
on the line of contact and then you would take it from there and by the way the u.s and nato they're
00:10:07.560
really good at negotiating with themselves you know they go to london they meet with starmer they meet
00:10:11.720
with macron they meet with uh you know so mandolin and uh you know etc they negotiate with themselves
00:10:17.680
who's negotiating with russia and i understand that white cop has and that that's good and he's he's uh
00:10:22.500
you know he's fully authorized to represent trump but that's that's that's what it's going to take
00:10:26.920
now russia says we want those four territories we want ukraine to withdraw we want demilitarization
00:10:32.480
of ukraine denazification and when you say that people go oh what are you what are you talking
00:10:37.500
about with nazis i'm sorry this this ideology of the bender bender's ideology in ukraine that took
00:10:43.740
root in the 30s and 40s is pro-nazi they fought on the nazi side against the russian army in world war
00:10:49.660
ii they're still there they're the power behind the scenes i've spoken to the head of the uh the marshal
00:10:55.300
uh uh u.s foundation about that she didn't like my question she admitted it hang over a second hang
00:11:01.860
over a second just to put this in perspective so people understand because look with these slavic
00:11:07.180
entities or these any whether you're these things go back hundreds of years right but they're grounded
00:11:12.760
in a ground truth what happened in ukraine in the 1930s because ukraine's essentially kansas it's the
00:11:20.660
kansas of let's say russia or kansas of part of europe it is a massive you know wheat grain it's
00:11:27.640
it's a bread basket in the 1930s the bolsheviks led by stalin took these intellectuals out of because
00:11:34.140
they were doing forced collectivizations up in russia they needed they needed the grain they went and
00:11:38.760
essentially starved the ukrainian people i think it was five million people starved if you've ever read
00:11:44.460
and applebaum who is no fan of the war room uh wrote a book i think it's called red harvest
00:11:49.880
there's a number of books you read them you can't it's very tough to turn the page
00:11:54.860
of they starve to death in the in a mist of plenty five million people when you say nazification the
00:12:04.040
ukraine was a killing field was the bloodlands it was called in world war ii a lot of eastern europe
00:12:09.560
but particularly ukraine because you had a lot of ukrainians that wanted vengeance against the
00:12:14.720
bolsheviks so when the german army came you had a lot of people signed up some of the some of the
00:12:20.160
worst units in the wehrmacht as far as brutality uh were ukrainian elements that's what putin keeps
00:12:28.320
talking about denazification also then a ton of people did of ukraine fought for the russians
00:12:34.660
because a lot of them you know feel like they're almost ethnic russians so this thing goes back and
00:12:39.420
it's brutal and it's nasty and so when when you get uh you putin and these guys talking about that
00:12:45.600
and ukrainians the americans you know the media kind of comes in and kind of slaps it over like
00:12:50.360
this place is norway or sweden and uh it's all these you know nightclubs and all these nice people
00:12:56.220
and lgbtq flags and you know it all be supported it's far deeper than that is it not uh brother records
00:13:02.280
well you're exactly right steve and of course the point is yeah everything you said is correct and
00:13:07.620
that accounts for some of the bitterness and the intransigence of this but communism's gone
00:13:11.920
stalin's gone okay putin is a nationalist authoritarian leader i get it uh but um but anybody's
00:13:19.060
you know closely aligned with the orthodox church americans don't understand the role of
00:13:22.560
the orthodox church they don't understand russian history they don't understand russians in general
00:13:26.700
uh i'm i you know i go back to the day i go back to the days of uh kissinger and homo sonnefeld and
00:13:32.620
james baker and so forth and they really knew their stuff george schultz you don't see that caliber of
00:13:37.660
talent today and i'm not again i'm not disparaging anyone i'm just saying but you know and it's not
00:13:41.380
even the leadership i mean j du anst is a smart guy but when you look at fiona hill george kent the
00:13:45.940
people who testified against trump during the impeachment they're not impressive russian scholars at
00:13:50.400
all number one number two as far as um you know where we are right now the other thing putin
00:13:56.120
wants is neutrality now austria was neutral during most of the cold war now eventually you know
00:14:01.000
join the west and uh uh you know it's a thriving democratic society today austria is a great country
00:14:06.120
but they were neutral it was great vienna was a great spy capital because both sides could drop in
00:14:10.320
um that that happens a lot that's not the end of the world so uh so but putin's demands are consistent
00:14:16.500
now trump is faced with a decision number one he can agree to most of what putin wants almost all of it
00:14:22.720
get a little something in return um and uh and i just call it a day by the way steve as you know
00:14:29.060
when you do geopolitics at a high level uh there are only three countries in the world that matter
00:14:34.140
the united states russia and china uh sorry uk you're a secondary power germany you're a tertiary power
00:14:41.040
they're the only three that matters if you're if you're jim hang up yeah hang hang one second i want

records talk we're in we're in the world now of great power power politics right you got china you got
00:18:08.340
the ccp you got russia you got uh you've got um the united states of america this is leads us up to
00:18:16.120
the early 1970s where nixon and kissinger came up with the strategy to pull the chinese communist
00:18:21.100
party away from the bolsheviks so that we could try to hammer out and take down the evil empire
00:18:26.640
solo right with a clear shot and reagan eventually did it that was predicated the reason they had to
00:18:32.780
do it the country was such a mess geopolitically given a decision that was made in the white house
00:18:39.820
in 1965 that decision was lyndon johnson and guess what the best and the brightest the people left
00:18:47.240
over from kennedy's administration including mac bundy mcgeorge bundy the former president of harvard
00:18:53.160
that was the national security advisor why is that such a seminal moment in modern american history sir
00:19:00.620
well go back to the the great powers quickly steve china russia u.s are the only ones that count now
00:19:07.840
uh i'll take you a poker player but a poker player knows if you're in a three-handed poker game
00:19:12.840
and you don't know who the sucker is you're the sucker meaning it's always two against one if you're
00:19:18.680
in the two great if you're not you're going to lose right and that's what nixon understood he said
00:19:22.900
china russia u.s so we uh opened the door to china so we could isolate the soviet union at the time
00:19:29.000
and it worked mao si-tong died gang of four got arrested deng Xiaoping modernized and the soviet
00:19:34.920
union fell and uh we won the cold war as a result that was brilliant that was nixon and kissinger now
00:19:40.000
today the same analysis applies except china is the main enemy so what does that mean it means either
00:19:45.960
the u.s and russia uh hold hands and work together you don't have to be treaty allies but just work
00:19:51.420
together and isolate china or we're the sucker and because that means russia and china working together
00:19:57.640
against us the president hates suckers uh i agree with him but right now we're the sucker unless we
00:20:02.440
can open the door to russia now going back to lbj he had this critical moment he he was really a
00:20:07.420
domestic politician no one particularly thought of him as a foreign policy expert so you rely on the
00:20:12.200
people around you there's no question about they had plenty of iq points and plenty of harvard degrees
00:20:16.140
that was the easy part you know mcdemara was in you know a logistical uh linear programming whiz
00:20:21.980
and mcgeorge bond they had a big brain and all that but they didn't they they were replaying the
00:20:26.180
korea playbook they didn't understand how different um uh vietnam was and and eisenhower said whatever
00:20:33.200
you do do not get in a land war in asia island hopping you know first marines yeah we got to
00:20:38.540
defeat japan understood do not get in a land war in asia well we did um and and johnson just followed
00:20:44.320
along and it just got worse and worse and worse and that's that's the point and again with 50 000
00:20:49.780
dead and you know tore the country apart and you know kind of destroyed you know handicapped
00:20:55.920
nixon in in very important ways uh that was a a national tragedy and a national disaster it did
00:21:01.160
not have to happen and that's my point trump is at the same point today he can basically accept
00:21:07.160
putin's demands now the first thing i would say to the trump administration is look the press is
00:21:11.820
going to bash you no matter what you do so factor out the press don't make it part of your equation
00:21:16.140
because if you settle more or less on putin's terms which is the way to end the war they're
00:21:20.400
going to trash you you're a putin puppet putin stew we know all that but if you keep fighting
00:21:24.860
you're going to say well you're not doing enough you need to do more etc so factor the press out
00:21:29.600
look at the situation on the ground so obviously russia's winning they're going to win i read an
00:21:34.040
article the other day that russian economy is suffering i said well read read some world war ii
00:21:38.000
history if you want to know about the russian economy they're more resilient the the the germans
00:21:42.520
of earmark killed five million russians guess what they had five million more right behind them
00:21:46.500
and that was not taken into account so that that's what we're dealing with so hang on but hang on hang
00:21:52.140
on hang on hang on i want to be very clear because you're a respected guy and this clip's going to go
00:21:57.240
and people are people that make things happen are going to watch it are you saying that if you don't
00:22:04.100
want to go down the johnson made a mistake he decided to escalate and send 500 000 combat troops
00:22:11.240
right escalate right and we didn't get out yesterday was the 50th anniversary yes sir two days ago 50th
00:22:18.800
anniversary of our retreat and surrender from south vietnam right with 58 000 combat casualties that
00:22:25.740
wouldn't happen there were almost when he made that decision 65 i think there was under a thousand
00:22:30.040
dead or something was nothing it was that acceleration that made it and he made a mistake and he should have
00:22:36.820
thought it through and just gotten out what are you saying right now president trump if he's in the if
00:22:42.140
trump's in the exact same spot what are you specifically saying trump should do get out we
00:22:47.600
know what putin's terms are uh basically agree to them that's not surrender that's just common sense
00:22:52.060
if johnson had got out of vietnam in 1965 we would have ended up in the same place with which is
00:22:57.600
communist control of vietnam without the casualty the the damages etc trump's going down the road the way
00:23:03.240
they lead you down this road is a little bit at a time little baby steps by the way this minerals deal
00:23:08.500
that they signed the other day i looked at a map uh it's really actually it's really about liquid
00:23:12.820
natural sorry it's about shell uh drilling and oil and gas i looked at a map of where the fields are
00:23:17.480
they're in russian territory uh so yeah okay we just did a deal with ukraine they're saying they're
00:23:21.980
giving us the shell oil and i looked at the map it's like oh well russia controls all that you think
00:23:26.160
they're giving it back no so uh this is this is all for show you know get out now while there's still
00:23:32.100
an opportunity to do so by the way just to follow up steve once we do that we can work with russia
00:23:37.660
there's a lot else going on you know with the money and the frozen assets etc and russia's need to
00:23:42.480
export etc russia is critical not just to china but to iran anybody want a war in iran we're heading
00:23:48.840
for one but with russia's help russia and the united states together well that's one of the reasons
00:23:53.420
waltz waltz was fired because he was one of the reasons he was fired was because he was too much
00:23:58.100
too adamant about this bombing and military and intervention into persia um so you're recommending
00:24:05.100
president trump just right now saying hey i gave you guys a shot uh and nothing happened and we're
00:24:11.240
out is that no more military aid no more financial aid just walk away yeah we are 200 billion down the
00:24:17.620
drain by the way americans are being killed you don't hear about it because they're covert operators
00:24:21.380
and intelligence collectors same with the french etc but yeah 200 billion dollars probably more
00:24:26.880
down the drain um probably estimates vary but over 700 000 ukrainian dead 100 000 or more russian dead
00:24:35.580
and russia's not giving up so again you can get out now and russia's going to take about a third of
00:24:41.380
the country or you can keep fighting and russia's going to take a third of the country so the same
00:24:46.400
result meanwhile by uh basically working with russia on this you can have russia's aid in iran where it's
00:24:52.920
far more important because that gets closer to nuclear war the right rapprochement jim where do
00:24:58.760
people go to get strategic intelligence and talk about the book you throw in because the uh
00:25:03.620

00:30:21.460
clock rolling thanks the um and now you got the budget out my phone's already getting blown up a lot
00:30:28.320
of people not happy with some of the stuff getting funded and not funded there's a lot of details
00:30:31.600
we're going to go through that and come out start this afternoon and then tomorrow to go through it in
00:30:37.000
detail about how we start how we get the financial and other aspects tied together of those three
00:30:47.160
the one that's not getting enough attention right now and i'm not sure getting enough attention um over uh
00:30:58.780
with folks that ought to know better is don't assume the administrative state in the deep states
00:31:06.620
going away they're not even at these agencies where you have landing teams or have the some of our
00:31:13.080
four or five thousand people in there they have very small representation or maga involvement given the
00:31:23.720
career bureaucrats and given the career administrative state folks what you have to do is go in with a
00:31:30.240
jackhammer every day and be relentless and people have to have their back that's one of the show
00:31:35.000
this show is dedicated to making sure we highlight those stories and we have the backs of those
00:31:39.980
that's why ed martin this ed martin situation is so important he may be outside of the top two or three
00:31:47.260
people at main justice and whoever ends up heading uh whether it's jay clayton or whatever whoever ends up
00:31:54.840
heading southern district of new york the one of the most important people in the country and given the
00:32:01.460
purview of uh his basic involvement in the capital and other things because you saw what happened on j6
00:32:10.520
he may be one of the most important of all and this gets back to one of the central problems
00:32:18.360
and this you're going to see it come up with the budget
00:32:21.540
they're all this thing about when the media says the republican party's totally maga the house and
00:32:28.120
senate totally maga that's just they missed the point as they missed the point and everything that's
00:32:31.260
not true most of these people most of them the elected officials in the house and senate are just
00:32:39.400
waiting maga and trump out they fear you of course they fear you they fear your retribution at the
00:32:47.940
ballot box and primaries of course but they've come up to a system and they're still they're still
00:32:53.400
rhinos and in the in the republican party is still neoliberal neocon globalist it's not economic
00:33:00.500
populism is not economic nationalism they're not nationalists they'll hum a few bars to get you off
00:33:07.080
their back and to run for cover immediately if you highlight it
00:33:17.600
today when president trump presents this budget you have these structural issues this is the
00:33:23.980
discretionary this budget so it says like trump's 1.5 trillion dollar budget this does not have any
00:33:30.120
of the entitlements in it it really just has the the big entitlements are social security medicare and
00:33:37.040
even medicaid although you could argue that's maybe not uh as an entitlement as the other two but this
00:33:43.020
is the discretionary part this is the defense budget and then all the other agencies and traditionally has
00:33:48.900
been a trillion five to two trillion dollars president trump's got 160 billion dollars
00:33:53.840
you know elon and for all the elon fanboys he pulled this this is this is a coincidence the number
00:34:00.600
he pulled out the other day this has nothing to do with doge
00:34:02.980
it just doesn't the programmatic part of this yes the doge go in on some on usaid but those things
00:34:12.780
have been fought forever and these are all being taken apart in the appropriation process which is a legal
00:34:18.860
process i still don't see any and we need it i don't see any numbers in here at all of
00:34:32.120
and no offense this show is one to force them you got across the potomac you got across the potomac you got
00:34:39.080
across the potomac why if you want to get serious about that you got to go to a place called the
00:34:43.720
pentagon and you got to go there and i'm not saying i've heard crickets from the pentagon in that part
00:34:48.660
but uh all we've heard is crickets from the pentagon and so in the converging crises we're coming up
00:34:54.860
this one in the middle of the of the re uh the reap the pivot in the in the reorganization of the
00:35:01.340
post-war international rules-based order on the economic side and the dollar side
00:35:06.500
given that rio is going to happen in july layered on top of it how we actually finance this what we're
00:35:13.580
what we are financing and how we finance it what are we actually going to do as a government
00:35:17.860
and what are you as a taxpayer prepared to finance and missing in all this there ain't one penny in
00:35:26.840
we we need it i knew the trillion dollars would never happen
00:35:32.540
but we thought it was going something we need every penny we can find and we need people if they
00:35:40.100
defrauded and they took social security money or if they took uh you know food stamps or they took
00:35:46.300
medicaid anything they took that's fraud it's got to be turned over to it's got to be turned over
00:35:52.160
to main justice it's got to be turned over main justice now
00:35:54.920
so these converging crises and you figure how did we get in a situation that we have a trillion dollars
00:36:04.120
trillion and a half to two trillion dollars of discretionary spending that literally we can't
00:36:08.660
afford it because we're only taking 4.5 to 5 trillion dollars of revenues all sources and yes
00:36:16.120
maybe tariffs are going to kick it up looks like it's going to kick it up maybe kick up 100 billion
00:36:21.560
200 billion which would be amazing but that's not going to cover the gap that's not going to cover the gap
00:36:27.640
how did we get here it was it was it was the republicans were controlled opposition fox news was
00:36:38.660
controlled opposition the wall street journal was controlled opposition controlled opposition
00:36:43.440
the jim brookers does not take us back to this debacle in ukraine in 2008
00:36:49.500
bushing these guys they're one of those guys driving uh with with the deep state driving
00:36:57.100
to get ukraine into the eu and into nato picked up by victoria newland these people that already
00:37:04.200
been in the state department who essentially did the color revolution in 2014 that rahim kassam and
00:37:09.640
natalie winters have so greatly documented started with republicans this is the sea change of president
00:37:17.640
trump this and this is why president trump is acting with an urgency that we need everybody to act on
00:37:25.640
the guy's what 78 years old follow the true social the guys were 18 or 20 hours a day every day of the
00:37:36.180
week and these are not small things when you're doing the speech like last night at at alabama in front
00:37:41.680
of hunt town tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands of people and live to millions and you're doing
00:37:46.840
you're in the oval office with a you know you're doing a three-hour um three-hour uh cabinet meeting
00:37:53.480
and taking questions from the press you're always on i i do a speech at uh at hillsdale hell i'm wiped
00:38:02.120
out trump's doing four or five of these a day things like that a day every day not he shows up and does
00:38:09.120
the one day every day the most important part i believe of the first hundred days is you're seeing
00:38:17.420
trump in the same trump every day the humor the knowledge the connection the um knowing every issue
00:38:27.820
go back in time look one of the parts of disintermediating the mainstream media and just
00:38:31.400
bringing them into the into the oval all those bilats they have briefing papers and the complicated
00:38:37.020
issues you're talking about trump then opens up to the press and he's taking all questions look at
00:38:43.280
the level just go back over a week and look at the different questions and the technical nature of
00:38:47.400
the gotcha questions trump just off the top of his head who knows that volume of information
00:38:53.440
he doesn't have some guy in his ear briefing him in his ear it's trump he's read about it he's absorbed it
00:39:01.480
in his sense of urgency it's the it's the how rapid how deep and the scale of what he has accomplished
00:39:14.140
in the first hundred days and now with the second hundred days will be more even more historic and
00:39:22.040
this is why it's the convergence of all this at one time
00:39:25.720
the the border situation virtually tied up the u.s government remember go back in time
00:39:32.320
with those of you who followed at least followed me at breitbart and breitbart radio and breitbart news
00:39:37.340
radio and breitbart texas and you know all these people you saw over the years i'm talking about
00:39:41.880
immigration immigration immigration all the time in the fights in the house and the michelle bachman
00:39:46.940
and steve king going back to 2013 right going back to the tea party look at look at look at all this
00:39:55.000
trump sealed the board in 60 days eric bowling brought up the one of the most important
00:40:02.560
points that even i had skipped over the length for bill had this whole but remember the triggering
00:40:09.380
thing was that you're going to have essentially two million more illegal aliens come in the country
00:40:17.680
maybe not say every year but two million come in two million more two million
00:40:25.860
if you do if you take the 170 billion dollars of the senate bill to take the mass deportations
00:40:34.920
and you and you say hey there's 10 million so it's 17 billion right per million that's a 34
00:40:41.920
another 34 billion dollars just rough math he stopped that in 60 days and now the left does
00:40:49.880
not even talk about it they don't want to talk about it because it's so monumental on day one he and
00:40:55.780
miller went through and got rid of all the 40 executive orders of biden he put in his executive
00:41:01.800
orders then he told border patrol i want to enforce this then he sent some army units down there
00:41:07.060
voila voila it's closed it's sealed and the folks down there know i don't want to come north because
00:41:16.520
trump's going to put me under arrest i'm not coming the new york times admitted for on his tariffs on the
00:41:24.740
tariff situation in mexico the very first round the people don't even talk about now the new york
00:41:29.320
times reported fentanyl has dropped i think about 50 percent
00:41:32.800
we have to have his back now in these big fights particularly the fights over the deep state
00:41:41.200
because that's one people don't want to do they don't it's ugly it's um tough it's unpleasant
00:41:52.720
of course it is they're dug in i'll be brutally frank i'm not feeling it
00:41:59.940
finton's right and for the folks and we love people in there but we can't we can't stop we have a
00:42:06.920
higher duty than friendship and camaraderie to and higher than to president trump we have a duty to the
00:42:15.060
nation to get this done now we this audience you me all of us we have a high moral responsibility
00:42:27.340
to this republic to everybody that came before us and everybody that's going to come after us
00:42:33.980
right here in this time and place this is we have to take it on we can't we will we cannot and will not
00:42:41.480
kick this can down the road the deep state has to go when i say has to go has to be turfed out of
00:42:49.520
where they are in the united states government today and they have to be the ones that have broken the law
00:42:56.320
and most of them broken numerous laws have to be investigated and prosecuted and then incarcerated
00:43:05.360
there's no other way around this be so easy to say we've got other things that we know this no
00:43:11.340
this is a cancer it's a cancer that's still metastasizing
00:43:16.120
and there are people who are prepared to cut it out and cut it out we shall cut it out we shall
00:43:28.320
remember the exercise is all enemies foreign and domestic short break
00:43:41.340

other participants are here and of course now in the courts to delay is to deny this massive
00:46:08.200
constitutional crisis that we're hurtling to and i was saying keep in your back pocket
00:46:11.520

america healthy again it's a huge part of our movement now walk me through sacred human health
00:48:38.520
what do you got for us this morning yeah thanks again steve um today i just wanted to talk a bit
00:48:43.420
about our flagship product which is our grass-fed beef liver and i know most people still aren't
00:48:48.980
familiar with the benefits of it or a lot of people don't know just how powerful beef liver is when it
00:48:53.600
comes to nutrition but it's oftentimes called nature's multivitamin and for a pretty good reason
00:48:58.620
and that's mainly because it's packed with essential nutrients like vitamin a b12 iron zinc coq10 folate
00:49:08.000
the list kind of goes on and on but these are all essential for things like maintaining healthy skin
00:49:13.120
hair heart immune support brain function and a few other things but also some things that people
00:49:21.800
really like about the beef liver is that it gives them that natural energy boost which is also a plus
00:49:27.220
and what makes our product stand out is that it's also 100 grass-fed and we just package it into easy
00:49:33.720
to swallow capsule form so you don't actually have to consume the raw liver it doesn't have an
00:49:37.820
aftertaste or anything like that and liver in general doesn't have the best taste um so again
00:49:42.500
easy to swallow and then um on top of that your body's also able to much better absorb these nutrients
00:49:49.680
as opposed to taking a synthetic multivitamin so right off the bat you're getting a much better bang
00:49:53.900
for your buck in that regard um and i always like to just mention too that the reason why we created
00:49:58.620
sacred human was to provide supplements like this that are clean natural and made with integrity so
00:50:04.760
we don't cut any corners by outsourcing our production to china um or skimping on ingredients
00:50:10.480
all of our products are manufactured in the usa so we always have a good grip on quality control
00:50:15.260
um and that's always our promise and on top of that we just try to do our best to deliver them at an
00:50:20.320

comstock i'm one of the co-creators of sacred human and i wanted to share just a little bit more about
00:54:18.060
our brand for those who may not know of us yet but about six months ago we decided to launch sacred
00:54:23.360
human with really the simple mission being to provide american-made natural supplements without
00:54:29.580
all the artificial nonsense so unfortunately as many of you know a lot of these big corporate
00:54:35.320
supplements will include things like preservatives artificial ingredients and other additives that
00:54:40.520
really aren't benefiting your health so that's why we created sacred human really trying to fill this
00:54:45.560
gap of quality supplements and of course the beef liver being our flagship products for those who don't
00:54:51.680
know beef liver is loaded with highly bioavailable ingredients such as vitamin a b12 zinc coq10
00:54:59.120
etc and because it is 100 grass-fed and natural your body is able to absorb these nutrients far better
00:55:06.760
than taking any other synthetic multivitamin or any other synthetic vitamin in general so we have some
00:55:13.900
other amazing products but if you'd like to check us out you can go to sacredhumanhealth.com
