In the wake of massive anti-ICE protests across the country, California Governor Gavin Newsom deploys the National Guard to the streets of Los Angeles to respond to a growing number of raids by ICE agents targeting immigrants in the city.
00:01:47.420In Washington, D.C. today, there were protests outside the Justice Department headquarters.
00:01:54.700You know, and when people stand up and protest, what we are learning over and over again in this administration is that protest works.
00:02:03.820And one of the ways that it works is that it puts steel in the spine of the political opposition in this country.
00:02:14.700For elected Democrats, it clarifies things for them.
00:02:18.420It shows them that the more they themselves push back as elected officials, the more support they will have from their own constituents.
00:02:26.120And so it's sort of virtuous circle, right?
00:02:30.100Amid this primal surge of protests, this moral revulsion and rejection of what Trump is doing.
00:02:37.200I mean, you see the elected Democrats stepping up and standing up, too.
00:02:42.180When the context of the massive military parade that Donald Trump is throwing for himself in Washington, D.C.
00:02:49.080This coming weekend to mark his birthday, as well as the anniversary, the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army, Donald Trump craves and always has craved sort of militarized shows of force.
00:03:00.780That is endemic to who he is as a political figure.
00:03:05.540He wants to surround himself with shows of force and strength.
00:03:09.040And he was shocked and furious to find that many military leaders in his first term didn't share his views of the politicization of the military that Donald Trump had in mind for his presidency.
00:03:23.300This time around, he's finding it much easier to have his demands met.
00:03:27.620He is a different kind of defense secretary in Pete Hegseth.
00:03:30.560He's already fired his first chairman of the Joint Chiefs.
00:03:34.100And he has the ability now to create these spectacles almost on demand.
00:03:38.960And I anticipate that he will continue to do so.
00:04:04.100And I anticipate that he will continue to do so.
00:04:34.080He will continue to override the rights of the state in terms of making its own decisions.
00:04:38.800And in this case, he chose to send it to the National Guard.
00:07:54.560A 40-point shift to the right among immigrant voters.
00:07:59.620Republicans now lead on this issue by eight points over Democrats, more so than any other group that I could find.
00:08:07.040The group of voters who became more hawkish on immigration were, in fact, immigrants themselves, immigrants who are registered to vote in this country.
00:08:15.860Now that folk have their red meat, now that they're going to see the spectacle of, quote-unquote, L.A. on fire, which it's not, right, what will happen?
00:08:25.140Will he activate the ugliness that got him in office in the first place?
00:08:29.100Will folk now declare why they love him?
00:08:31.440Because we know that he's always good on the immigration question.
00:08:34.740And then the second thing, this reminds me historically of the, it's not a clear analogy, but when the nation, when these political factions divided the nation between slaveholders and slave catchers.
00:08:48.740When they made everybody with the fugitive slave law, all of us had to, if someone escaped, all of us had to return that particular piece of property to these folk.
00:08:57.760With ICE running around L.A., forcing people to make choices, will they protect their friends, their neighbors, their family members?
00:09:05.220Will they take, will they confront these folk and they're terrorized?
00:09:08.960I'm sitting here trying to figure out, all right, what will the country stomach?
00:09:15.400Are they going to allow this man to do this?
00:09:17.420And the answer that I keep coming to is yes.
00:12:49.000That was a perfect arc of exactly where we stand and what the two sides are.
00:12:52.900One is for law and order and to get our sovereignty back, right?
00:12:57.420And I hate to say it, you've got to press the bet today.
00:13:03.120Holman, and I love Tom Holman, but a strong recommendation.
00:13:06.840Tom, you know, we didn't want Pam Bondi to be a co-host over there at Fox, get back in the Justice Department, and let's start indicting people.
00:13:26.360Our own Brian Glenn's going to be with him.
00:13:30.180Today in Los Angeles and throughout the country, because Dallas and San Antonio, other places are going to light up, the ice should triple down today in L.A.
00:13:40.480And I didn't like, Tom, I love you, but I don't like, you know, Peter Schweitzer, the great Peter Schweitzer, you're saying, hey, that wasn't about an ice raid, that we're doing some money laundering, we're stopping cartels.
00:14:41.700The law and order in the neighborhoods cleaned up.
00:14:44.240And the way you do that is to deport 10 million illegal alien, wait for it, invaders.
00:14:51.380And at the same time, let's get Mayorkas and Biden and the entire crowd arrest them.
00:14:57.040This July, there is a global summit of BRICS nations in Rio de Janeiro, the block of emerging superpowers, including China, Russia, India, and Persia, are meeting with the goal of displacing the United States dollar as the global currency.
00:15:18.160As BRICS nations push forward with their plans, global demand for U.S. dollars will decrease, bringing down the value of the dollar in your savings.
00:15:26.540While this transition won't not happen overnight, but trust me, it's going to start in Rio.
00:15:33.420The Rio reset in July marks a pivotal moment when BRICS objectives move decisively from a theoretical possibility towards an inevitable reality.

00:19:17.760The ICE agents need to get back into the streets today in a massive show of force and rounding people up and deporting them back to their home countries.
00:20:03.140A 40-point shift to the right among immigrant voters.
00:20:08.160Republicans now lead on this issue by eight points over Democrats, more so than any other group that I could find.
00:20:15.600The group of voters who became more hawkish on immigration were, in fact, immigrants themselves, immigrants who are registered to vote in this country.
00:21:01.240So there may be all this stuff, right, about undocumented immigrants and Trump being harsh on them.
00:21:05.780But immigrant voters themselves have increasingly liked Donald Trump and have increasingly moved to the right on immigration into the Republican camp.
00:21:13.380The net favorable rating, immigrants who are here illegally, among immigrant citizens, again, those registered to vote.
00:21:44.220Hands down, the immigrant in particular, the legal voting immigrant community in America, this, everything that you're seeing from the Democrats right now, all the defacing of property and attacking of police and law enforcement and ICE, you're just turning them more MAGA.
00:21:58.480But what we're also seeing, and this was pretty shocking, not so much shocking, but to get them on camera, I was just walking down the streets to get over here today, and we had this crew of guys cleaning off the graffiti.
00:22:08.640I walk up, and the guy turns to me and says, what does this prove?
00:22:11.620And I walk over, and he just starts giving me an interview.
00:22:13.580I walk further down to the Walt Disney Concert Hall, a historic landmark here in Los Angeles.
00:23:23.440And if you look at what Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass are doing, they're basically saying we're going to selectively decide which laws are going to be enforced and which ones are not.
00:23:34.200And under our federalist system, federal law trumps state law.
00:23:39.420It occupies the field under the supremacy clause.
00:23:42.280And the court cases are telling you that the federal government, meaning the president of the United States, based upon the authority that the Congress has given him by statute, bicameralism and presentment, has the authority to do this.
00:24:02.740You should enforce the immigration laws without the warrants.
00:24:06.140But basically they should follow the law.
00:24:07.960They're going to have the support of the community.
00:24:10.280They may not have the support of Karen Bass and Gavin Newsom, but that's OK because everybody is looking at what they're doing with the people who are throwing cinder blocks at police officers, at law enforcement.
00:24:48.000He's going to Fort Bragg today as a show of force.
00:24:50.340Why is LAPD, like over the weekend, and I kind of feel for these guys, the front-line guys, because a little bit looks like they're forced to play namby-pamby.
00:24:59.700There were virtually no arrests, right?
00:25:01.520In San Francisco, they had 142 arrests.
00:25:06.540Yeah, because the rank-and-file in LAPD and the L.A. County Sheriff deputies don't have the support of the political leaders in the county and the city.
00:25:14.460Even into the police chain of command?
00:25:16.480Yeah, I think some of those guys are trying their best to support the rank-and-file, but if you talk to the rank-and-file, and I have friends who were part of the rank-and-file and still talk to some of them, a lot of them are demoralized.
00:25:27.240A lot of them don't want to risk anything because they know that the city, the county, and the state are not going to back them up.
00:25:32.680When you have some of these folks who are trying to cause physical harm and property damage, they want to enforce the law.
00:25:38.220They want to get them off the streets.
00:25:45.760They're working multiple jobs just to be able to afford to stay in California because of all the taxes that Gavin Newsom and Karen Batts are imposing on them, whether it's $8 gas or anything else.
00:25:56.760These people just want to live their lives and raise their kids and have their small business.
00:26:00.940Unless you take care of the illegal alien situation, you're not going to be able to get the schools back up to standard.
00:26:07.900You're not going to be – the medical system there is destroyed.
00:26:12.020The law and order of the neighborhoods are destroyed.
00:26:13.640And the reason is you have – I think they're talking about in L.A.
00:26:16.920maybe a million or two million illegal aliens.
00:26:19.280Until you sort that problem out, the working-class Hispanic citizens and working-class African-American citizens – because, first off, it suppresses wages so hard.
00:26:29.900This is why the elites in L.A., the Gavin Newsoms of the world, love illegal aliens because they get their grass cut cheaper, their nannies, all of it.
00:26:38.200The people doing the yards – and the wages drop for everybody in the working-class area.
00:26:45.000But all these hardworking people have been living with a crime-ridden city for a long time.
00:26:49.960People forget about that they basically declared, we're not going to prosecute people who steal items valued just under $1,000.
00:26:59.140You're coming off of the era where they had Gascon as the L.A.D.A., who acted more like a criminal defense attorney as opposed to a prosecutor to protect the citizens and get violent criminals.
00:27:10.020Whenever the L.A.P.D. and the sheriffs were bringing these folks in and booking them, the prosecutors were processing them right back out onto the street.
00:27:18.120So on the heels of that – now, they have a new L.A.D.A. who's better.
00:30:26.340How do we get to the bottom of how this thing's organized?
00:30:29.400There's another huge thing financed by the Walton family and all these billionaires.
00:30:34.640We'll get some names here in a minute.
00:30:35.860But why is the Justice Department not all over this?
00:30:41.000Why has the FBI cash said, hey, he's going to be doing all this?
00:30:43.920Why are we not all over the financiers and the people in back of this?
00:30:47.360We ought to be perp-walking those people out today.
00:30:49.280Look, I think that after this is done, after they restore order, I would fully expect that the FBI and the Department of Justice is going to take a look at a couple of things.
00:31:05.000Did that coordination involve obstructing federal law enforcement processes and arresting their duties under federal law?
00:31:13.540And I think that those are going to have to be some hard questions that a lot of people in California, the people who are organizing the protests, but potentially some of these political leaders as well.
00:31:23.100They passed a $34 million bill to finance it.
00:31:38.280Yeah, from the very top, there is coordination by all these different groups from, you know, now you have this new one, No Kings, but it's all the same groups, Indivisible, the American Socialist Party, Democratic Socialists of America, all going back to great society and all of these organizations.
00:32:54.080Okay, well, I think that's what they're saying.
00:32:55.320Do you go after the billionaires today?
00:32:56.940I think you've got to find the organizations or you're going to find the donors.
00:33:00.120You've done the most work on all this dark money tying it together.
00:33:03.720What are the two or three this morning that you would tell the Justice Department to go in, get a warrant, seize their records, and let's roll?
00:33:10.220Yeah, I would take a look at all of the big national dark money groups and look at the state and local groups that are on the ground that Ben is talking about, and what are the transfers?
00:33:20.360You can pull those out of the 990s that these groups file.
00:33:24.080Now, the 2024 990s aren't coming available until probably around November or later, but I would want to take that and follow the money because it's not just the national groups that you have there.
00:33:34.860You have to follow it down into the states because that's where the rubber hits the road on some of these, and a lot of people will ignore California because it's a one-party rule state.
00:33:45.440But when you look at some of the activities that are happening on the ground right now in Los Angeles, Santa Ana, and some of these other communities,
00:33:52.460you need to get down there and find out these community groups, who's financing them, who's training them, and who's supporting them.
00:33:58.920Another part of the interim was telling me the trustafarians.
00:34:01.840How big a deal is these trust fund kids, these Nepo billionaire babies that are funding this?
00:34:07.040Look, I don't know who is funding this, Steve, so I don't want to come out and name names, but I do want to say that there is enough evidence here for the oversight committee in the House of Representatives.
00:39:50.120But, Jim, why wouldn't you demand that they be able to show proof of citizenship at Western Union?
00:39:56.920And if you can't show legitimate proof of citizenship, you can't send the wire, that the only wire that can be sent is by a United States citizen.
00:40:05.300Why would you – why would we allow – if they try to do it, make it 100% tax?
00:40:30.060And, you know, just whatever channel they're using these days, you know, the old-day Western Union, banks, Venmo, whatever, they're a bunch of channels.
00:41:49.300I can't verify this, but there's some notion that – because Scheinbaum said we want to mobilize the Mexican population in the United States to resist this.
00:41:58.540Now, she didn't say violence, but is what's going on in L.A. in some way that mobilization that she referred to?
00:42:05.360She's turning – I know you've got to bounce.
00:42:11.320Look, I think that it's so convenient with all the short-term memory just from Boulder with the guy who came in.
00:42:17.560We had a terror attack in a park, right?
00:42:19.920Karen Bass is yelling about, oh, they tried to do a raid or ICE agent showed up at Home Depot.
00:42:25.080We had an anti-Semitic attack in Boulder in a park.
00:42:28.700But how soon do people forget that Chris Wray sat before Congress last year?
00:42:33.480No friend of the war room, nobody that we trust, saying, I've never seen the red lights blinking like they are right now.
00:42:39.880I mean, even the Biden administration toward the end realized the folly of their ways and began to realize how insecure that they placed America in.
00:42:48.500And I think that what we need to do is we need to be supporting these ICE agents.
00:42:52.220We need to be supporting federal law enforcement.
00:42:59.300You and I have talked about how we need to almost have a permanent campaign to support him, not only on the big, beautiful bill, on the immigration policy, everything else that he wants to do to try and right the ship of everything that's gone wrong.
00:43:32.180We've got to cut – we've got to stop the funding of this.
00:43:35.100The funding in California is coming through their assembly because it's a one-party state.
00:43:40.040But also these billionaire kids that are funding the destruction of our country.
00:43:44.640We've got to get – and you're the smartest guy out there about that.
00:43:47.240And a California assembly and held a press conference, I think it was yesterday, where he basically said, you know, you're taking the money from the law enforcement and you're giving it to these groups that are helping to organize these protests.
00:44:19.880He's our wise man, a former CIA, Pentagon, and White House advisor with an unmatched grasp of geopolitics and capital markets.
00:44:27.020Jim predicted Trump's Electoral College victory exactly 312 to 226, down to the actual number itself.
00:44:36.920Now he's issuing a dire warning about April 11th, a moment that could define Trump's presidency and your financial future.
00:44:44.440His latest book, Money GPT, exposes how AI is setting the stage for financial chaos, bank runs at lightning speeds, algorithm-driven crashes, and even threats to national security.
00:44:56.000Right now, war room members get a free copy of Money GPT when they sign up for Strategic Intelligence.
00:45:02.320This is Jim's flagship financial newsletter, Strategic Intelligence.
00:45:32.100I can't believe I got Bill McGinley in here.
00:45:34.140First time in, and this is one of my dearest friends, first time here actually in studio outside of phone, and it's got to be since before inauguration, right?
00:46:22.160It's these billionaire kids, right, or these kids that are putting this together that are financing all this stuff.
00:46:27.680Like Indivisible is, I think, part of the New Kings.
00:46:30.680I think the full-paid ad I saw in the New York Times was by one of the Walton people, I think.
00:46:36.620We've got to get to the people that are funding this.
00:46:38.760I mean, otherwise, the people in the streets that Burquam's got to deal with are the foot soldiers, right?
00:46:43.800They're always going to show up, but you've got to cut the money off.
00:46:46.940Yeah, but you've got to get to the broader network that's out there.
00:46:49.700None of this is you can view in isolation.
00:46:52.580You know, you've got to look at all of the stuff that they've done in elections.
00:46:57.580You've got to look at everything that they've done on public policy.
00:47:01.040If the Justice Department gets a special deal going here with Ed Martin or something, you and Tom Fitton could be advisors to that, correct?
00:47:07.820Yeah, I'll go in and talk to Ed Martin any time.
00:51:11.440But I thought it was odd that she has the highest possible security clearances, and she's asking me for, you know, basically what are open sources?
00:53:16.820John Solomon, Jim Rickards in the war room.
00:53:18.920There's a lot of talk about government debt, but after four years of inflation, the real crisis is personal debt.
