Bannon's War Room - Episode 4556： Stripping Iran's Nuclear Capability And Securing America's Defense

00:00:00.000 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

00:00:06.000 Pray for our enemies, because we're going to medieval on these people.

00:00:11.000 I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.

00:00:16.000 The people have had a belly full of it.

00:00:18.000 I know you don't like hearing that.

00:00:19.000 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that,

00:00:21.000 but you're not going to stop it.

00:00:22.000 It's going to happen.

00:00:23.000 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?

00:00:27.000 MAGA Media.

00:00:28.000 MAGA Media.

00:00:29.000 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:00:34.000 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:00:38.000 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:00:44.000 War Room.

00:00:45.000 Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

00:00:48.000 It's Thursday, 12 June in the year of our Lord, 2025.

00:00:55.000 A pretty intense day on many, many fronts in this in the third world war, particularly the home front.

00:01:03.000 What's happening here in the United States.

00:01:05.000 I've got an incredible team that's going to walk us through.

00:01:07.000 We're going to talk about the deep state.

00:01:09.000 So much going on agriculture, big ag, some mixed messaging from the president of the United States that we'll get to.

00:01:15.000 But I got to start with the situation in Persia, as we call it, or Iran, as the CIA calls it.

00:01:22.000 It's quite, it's very confusing, so much going on.

00:01:26.000 So I've got Congressman MTG is on with us, but I want to start in Constantinople or Istanbul, as some would have it, with Kurt Mills of American Conservative.

00:01:37.000 Kurt, can you walk through exactly, just the fact pattern of what's happened here over the last 12 to 24 hours?

00:01:46.000 We lost him.

00:01:47.000 Yeah.

00:01:48.000 MTG, you've got, by the way, we just lost our link, we're going to try to get it back up.

00:01:52.000 Congressman Green, you've been pretty adamant.

00:01:55.000 You're a big defender of Israel, but you've been pretty adamant on social media.

00:01:59.000 You don't know what's going on here, but you're very confused or concerned about the war toxins sounding about potential bombing runs or military conflict in Persia.

00:02:10.000 Your thoughts about this, ma'am?

00:02:12.000 Just to clarify, Steve, I'm America first all the way.

00:02:16.000 And I don't know anyone that wakes up and thinks about bombing Iran.

00:02:21.000 I honestly don't.

00:02:23.000 I haven't talked to anyone that thinks that's a good idea.

00:02:27.000 Or even, it doesn't even occur to them because it feels like no threat to their life.

00:02:32.000 What we do know is a threat to America is the current war that we are seeing waged by the Democrats, by the foreign nationals waving Mexican flags, 1.00

00:02:42.000 by the anarchists, communist anarchists, that are being funded by major leftists and likely linked to the CCP, people like Neville Singham, which we are investigating.

00:02:55.000 And so these are the things Americans are concerned about.

00:02:58.000 And, Steve, just to go a step further, you know, of course we stand with our allies.

00:03:04.000 Of course we stand with Israel and all of our allies.

00:03:09.000 However, we've been told for as long as I can remember, 20, maybe 30 years now, that Iran is on the verge of having a nuclear weapon any day, any day.

00:03:20.000 And we constantly hear that scary threat to us, but we've heard it too many times.

00:03:27.000 And Americans are just fatigued and they're sick of it, and we really want to focus on the self-inflicted problems that we've created and fix them right here at home.

00:03:39.000 Do you get concerned when you hear all these news flashes coming across that were taking people out of the embassy in Iraq and that these small bases we have still in Iraq are subject to retaliation?

00:03:55.000 So they're telling, they're sending the families home, any families over there, families in the Gulf Emirates, I guess, in Kuwait.

00:04:02.000 And then you have the president come back out and saying, hey, I don't support any military action.

00:04:07.000 I've got a team negotiating it.

00:04:09.000 Does it strike you as odd?

00:04:12.000 I mean, I don't remember Taiwan doing that or other people.

00:04:15.000 Does it strike you as odd that it seems to be some sort of, looks like we're being forced into this without doing any of the economic sanctions that clearly you should do?

00:04:24.000 Go up the escalatory ladder that might take you a year or so.

00:04:28.000 Does that strike you as odd?

00:04:30.000 Yeah, it strikes me as extremely odd.

00:04:32.000 I don't think anyone has any business going into the president's office and trying to talk him into a war that we should have nothing to do with.

00:04:40.000 I think that is extremely concerning.

00:04:43.000 And whoever those people are, they're not on our team.

00:04:46.000 And I think we all find that to be a big problem.

00:04:50.000 I'll tell you some things that really concern me, Steve, is Iran is a member of the BRICS group that is becoming more powerful every single year. 0.94

00:05:00.000 And Iran and Russia just signed a defense deal months ago.

00:05:06.000 So that's a defense deal that those two countries have together.

00:05:10.000 And also Iran supplies 90 percent of their oil to China.

00:05:15.000 And so we know China has an invested interest in the safety and security of the oil that they buy from Iran.

00:05:23.000 So these are concerns to me.

00:05:26.000 The United States has driven the war in Ukraine against Russia.

00:05:31.000 So I imagine Russia is pretty sick of the United States. 0.90

00:05:34.000 We know China is pretty sick of the United States. 0.91

00:05:37.000 They're upset about tariffs and how much we've been beating them with trade ever since that has happened.

00:05:43.000 And so these are two major nuclear countries that have a lot of reasons to be to be unhappy with the United States.

00:05:51.000 And this could be it could be, you know, it's like it's kind of like the final straw.

00:05:57.000 And I hope it isn't that because the American people don't want any of this.

00:06:02.000 The American people didn't want to support the Ukraine war.

00:06:04.000 The American people don't want to deal with China at all.

00:06:07.000 We'd like to do it ourself and not have to deal with that country a single bit.

00:06:11.000 So I think we're looking at a situation where I don't see those countries messing with Israel.

00:06:18.000 I just don't see that happening.

00:06:20.000 But they could say we've had enough of the United States of America and all of our foreign intervention.

00:06:27.000 MTG, I think we've got Kurt up now in Constantinople.

00:06:30.000 Kurt, why does it seem like we're inexorably, I mean, Congressman Green just mentioned the oil.

00:06:36.000 It's 22 percent of China's intake on oil, who's our who's our the existential threat we face. 0.93

00:06:43.000 It's 90 percent of the Iranian oil.

00:06:47.000 And it's you know, it's it's part of a 40 year deal.

00:06:50.000 They are part of BRICS.

00:06:51.000 They're meeting in Rio de Janeiro on July 6th.

00:06:53.000 They're trying to destroy the US dollar.

00:06:55.000 But why does it seem like everybody's talking a military option when I don't think it maybe I'm wrong.

00:07:02.000 You know all the details here that we haven't really even started the escalatory ladder that we had in President Trump's first term when we had the mullahs backed up to the wall. 0.98

00:07:11.000 Much less real real stopping of oil shipments to China, sir.

00:07:17.000 Yeah, I mean, look, I think base case and this is this is fast emerging and it's very bizarre, frankly, to telegraph an attack.

00:07:26.000 You know, if you were any sort of attack, if you were going to tell someone that you were going to bomb their house, you wouldn't give them 12 to 24 hours leeway.

00:07:34.000 But I still think base case we are looking at an Israeli only attack on Iran in the coming days and hours. 0.71

00:07:43.000 You know, it is overnight here in Turkey.

00:07:46.000 It will be sunrise in Iran in seven hours or even less.

00:07:51.000 And, you know, that that is the prime mover. Netanyahu is the prime mover.

00:07:55.000 The Israelis want to make a move. 0.99

00:07:57.000 The Israeli government, I should say.

00:07:59.000 Netanyahu's own domestic credibility is on the line.

00:08:03.000 He survived a coalition near collapse this week.

00:08:07.000 There's polling that indicates that Netanyahu could relinquish power in Jerusalem to his arch rival, Naftali Bennett, the former prime minister.

00:08:16.000 And that's what's driving it.

00:08:17.000 Additionally, I think the lobby, frankly, here at home, the well-known Fox News empresario Mark Levin had a lunch last week with Trump in the White House.

00:08:30.000 And I think it had some effect. So the president is under pressure.

00:08:34.000 But the reality is there are still ongoing negotiations this Sunday, this weekend in Oman, in Muscat with the Iranians.

00:08:43.000 And there's a deal to be had here if, as Trump himself, as the president himself said openly today, if the Israelis don't foil it. 0.93

00:08:54.000 Let's talk about Levin and the Fox.

00:08:56.000 You know, Mark Levin is one of the smartest guys around.

00:08:59.000 He's had a very successful show.

00:09:00.000 He's an icon of the conservative movement.

00:09:02.000 He's a guy that doesn't get his facts wrong.

00:09:05.000 Why would Mark Levin go into the president's office?

00:09:08.000 He's been a supporter of the president at least since the first term, maybe not in the primaries in 16, but in the first term.

00:09:15.000 Why would Mark Levin go in and give and give false information, given he's a smart guy and he knows the stakes here, sir?

00:09:23.000 Yeah, not questioning his intelligence, but questioning his information.

00:09:27.000 I mean, per all reporting, Levin directly contradicted the sweeping conclusion of America's 15 plus intelligence agencies held by DNI Tulsi Gabbard that Iran does not have a nuclear weapon.

00:09:43.000 And as the congresswoman alluded to, I think quite eloquently, Iran has been on the verge of a nuclear weapon for two decades now and still no dice.

00:09:54.000 And Levin at this launch, it has been widely reported, said that basically.

00:09:59.000 Yes, it said that said that.

00:10:02.000 Yeah, go ahead.

00:10:03.000 Go ahead.

00:10:04.000 No, no.

00:10:05.000 I mean, I mean, I mean, he basically said that they're on there.

00:10:07.000 You know, it's it's one hour to midnight.

00:10:09.000 And I just don't think that's accurate.

00:10:12.000 There's there's no evidence of that.

00:10:14.000 There's there's one report from my my sources.

00:10:17.000 Tell me that was DNI maybe has the point you laid out that the CIA.

00:10:23.000 And my understanding is the CIA was actually represented Sunday at Camp David at this meeting.

00:10:29.000 The CIA has a different take on things and that they may actually support the Mark Levin.

00:10:34.000 Have you heard that?

00:10:35.000 Or was it you strike the strike you as odd at this huge meeting that DNI didn't even wasn't even invited or didn't show up?

00:10:42.000 I have not heard that.

00:10:44.000 I again, you know, technically through the government channels, DNI overseas CIA and DNI is the wrangler.

00:10:51.000 It's a war on terror job.

00:10:53.000 It's the wrangler of all of America's intelligence agencies, most of which you don't hear about it.

00:10:58.000 And their universal conclusion as of the spring is that Iran does not have it and wasn't particularly close.

00:11:03.000 If there's new information, it's it's always possible.

00:11:07.000 But as of now, you know, the the most common cited source was a very obscure sort of domestic intelligence agency in Austria.

00:11:16.000 I believe they said the Iranians were close.

00:11:18.000 The universal the near universal conclusion is they're not close.

00:11:23.000 And I think the evidence is how far down the Iranians are willing to go on enrichment because their cards are that shaky. 0.98

00:11:33.000 Hang on one second, Kurt, I need you to stick around with me.

00:11:36.000 I know it's late there.

00:11:37.000 Congressman Green, you've been at the forefront of trying trying to stop our involvement in the Ukraine war,

00:11:43.000 of trying to get an accounting on the Ukraine war.

00:11:45.000 Your ask aren't aren't that huge.

00:11:48.000 I don't think you've ever got an answer.

00:11:50.000 Aren't most of your most of the folks in Congress in the House, don't they really support the Mark Levin school of thought

00:11:57.000 and that you're kind of with a handful of other people, a little bit of a lone wolf here, ma'am?

00:12:03.000 Yeah. Yeah, absolutely.

00:12:04.000 They definitely support the Mark Levin and the Fox News, Rupert Murdoch's line of thought.

00:12:10.000 That's that's definitely the way that many of them want to go.

00:12:15.000 But however, I think that this the truth always comes out and the truth came out quickly with Ukraine. 0.95

00:12:22.000 You know, they told us in Congress early on that Vladimir Putin was going to quickly take Ukraine.

00:12:29.000 Poland would be next and that he would steamroll across Europe. 1.00

00:12:32.000 Well, none of that ever happened.

00:12:34.000 And there was I could find no statement anywhere that that Putin had said he was going to do that.

00:12:40.000 So I know for a fact that they'll lie to us in Congress to get our agreement on something.

00:12:45.000 And I think I think maybe that's what's going on here. I'm I'm not sure.

00:12:51.000 I haven't been briefed on the intel on it, but I have something called common sense.

00:12:56.000 And when I've been told over and over for over two decades that Iran is on the verge of having a nuclear bomb,

00:13:03.000 but yet they've never had one, even though 20 years ago it was days away.

00:13:08.000 I think it's pretty clear we know what the motive is here and the secular government of Israel.

00:13:16.000 And I think that's really important for Christians to understand the secular government of Israel.

00:13:22.000 And and Benjamin Netanyahu maybe maybe wants to bomb Iran, but it's not a I don't think it's a popular thing.

00:13:30.000 He's having trouble in Israel himself.

00:13:33.000 So we'll see how that works out.

00:13:36.000 We want both of you to stay through the break real quickly.

00:13:38.000 We got about a minute on this side. Congressman back home in your district, you're pretty close to the folks back there.

00:13:44.000 Where do they stand right now on a military involvement in or even allowing our ally to go bomb Iran right now?

00:13:53.000 You know, I think people back at home just think Israel should handle their own business and they want our American military to defend our United States border.

00:14:02.000 And they would love to see our military go after these foreign nationals waving Mexican flags on our own land. 1.00

00:14:08.000 And the communist Antifa, the anarchists that have declared war on our government.

00:14:13.000 That's what people back at home think our government should be doing is taking care of our own enemies right here on our own homeland.

00:14:20.000 Congressman, you stick around. You had a massive win today with your doge vote.

00:14:24.000 I want to get to that after a short commercial break.

00:14:26.000 Also some artificial intelligence. You've been the cutting edge of that in the big, beautiful bill.

00:14:31.000 Kurt Mills is going to stick with us. Tom Fitton is going to join us.

00:14:34.000 We've got a lot to talk about, including big agriculture.

00:14:37.000 Short commercial break. MTG brought it up.

00:14:40.000 The BRICS nations. They're not our friends, particularly Brazil, Russia and in China. 1.00

00:16:27.000 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.

00:16:30.000 OK, remember, the watchword in the war room is there's no conspiracies, but there's also no coincidence.

00:16:37.000 Far be it for me to say, because MTG's in the A block on the afternoon war room, President Trump just tweets out on Iran or puts a true social out.

00:16:49.000 I'm quoting, we remain committed to a diplomatic resolution to the Iran nuclear issue.

00:16:54.000 My entire administration has been directed to negotiate with Iran.

00:16:58.000 They could be a great country, but they first must completely give up hopes of obtaining a nuclear weapon.

00:17:05.000 Thank you for your attention to this matter.

00:17:09.000 First off, MTG, Congressman, your thoughts on that, which was put up in the middle of your your discussion, ma'am.

00:17:18.000 I wonder if the president is watching war room today, Steve, that that would be my first thought.

00:17:24.000 I think the president is completely aligned with his campaign promises that he told America that he wanted to end the foreign wars.

00:17:33.000 And that truth right there shows that the president is still committed to that.

00:17:37.000 It also provides some insight into where he is at and what he is directing his entire administration to do, regardless of those that come into his Oval Office and try to talk him into something else.

00:17:51.000 So I'm very pleased with that tweet or true.

00:17:54.000 Sorry, true social posts.

00:17:55.000 Kurt Mills, your interpretation of this.

00:18:00.000 I think it's a profound statement, frankly.

00:18:02.000 I mean, he made it amidst all the hurly burly amidst all the helter skelter.

00:18:06.000 He made think two things very clear.

00:18:09.000 One, everyone in the administration.

00:18:11.000 I mean, that feels like a shot, a shot across the bow.

00:18:14.000 He wants close ranks on this.

00:18:17.000 Everyone on the.

00:18:18.000 Everyone in the administration should be committed to the negotiations.

00:18:21.000 Number one.

00:18:22.000 Number two, he said the goal is to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.

00:18:28.000 This is very critical.

00:18:30.000 He says nothing about the specifics of enrichment.

00:18:33.000 The zero enrichment line has been one that potentially could be a spoiler or a deal breaker with the Iranians. 0.64

00:18:40.000 Now, there is the possibility of a zero enrichment agreement through this civil nuclear compendium, a compendium with Saudis and the Emiratis.

00:18:49.000 But the two things that he's driving home here is everybody else in the administration fall in line.

00:18:55.000 And then two, let's not lose sight of the goal here, which is no nuclear weapon.

00:19:00.000 And for what it's worth, the Iranians, the foreign minister himself, Arachi, says if all the goal is is to have no nuclear weapons in Iran, you have a deal.

00:19:10.000 And they're meeting again this weekend amidst all of this talk of a strike.

00:19:14.000 And they could ink a deal as soon as this weekend.

00:19:17.000 I think this is extremely bullish.

00:19:20.000 Kurt, hang around for a second.

00:19:22.000 Congressman Green, you got a very big win just a little while ago.

00:19:26.000 The first Doge package, really, I guess the rescissions package of $9.3 billion, including money for PBS and NPR, which you had the hearings on, just passed.

00:19:37.000 You want to walk us through that?

00:19:39.000 Yes, very excited.

00:19:40.000 I chair the Doge subcommittee on oversight, and we held some very powerful hearings this year, two of which were on USAID and defunding NPR and PBS.

00:19:53.000 Well, we finally made some headway, even though it was really hard.

00:19:58.000 I cannot believe Republicans that vote no to this stuff.

00:20:01.000 But we finally passed the Doge rescissions cut, the first one that cuts over $9 billion.

00:20:08.000 And I really think that's a drop in the bucket, Steve.

00:20:11.000 I think the American people deserve a lot more.

00:20:13.000 But I think they should pay close attention to any Republicans that don't want to make these Doge rescission cut votes.

00:20:20.000 It was stunning.

00:20:22.000 And we'll deal with that maybe in the next week or two.

00:20:24.000 One question I get from the audience all the time.

00:20:26.000 You had a master class in the subcommittee that you chair, the committee chair, in grilling witnesses.

00:20:34.000 Can you please confirm that those horrible people from NPR and PBS are not going to be, with the cut of this billion dollars in each, that they will no longer be employed as federal employees, ma'am?

00:20:47.000 Yes.

00:20:48.000 The details of it is, unfortunately, 2025 was already funded.

00:20:52.000 They will be defunded in 26 and 27 with a spending cut for this fiscal year, Steve.

00:20:59.000 Again, I think we should defund them permanently, as well as USAID, very dangerous program.

00:21:06.000 I don't like the idea that it can be left open and taken into the State Department.

00:21:10.000 We've already seen what a Democrat State Department can do.

00:21:14.000 But we have to keep pushing.

00:21:16.000 And for people watching at home, I have to tell you, we had four Republicans vote no to this.

00:21:21.000 We had six, and two of them pulled back their votes in order for this to pass.

00:21:27.000 But no Republicans should be voting no.

00:21:30.000 And so I want you to know it's an incredible fight up here.

00:21:34.000 But I tell you what, you know, there's a good reason to put out and for people to see how Republicans vote because it gives people a reason to pay attention to primary season.

00:21:46.000 And that's coming.

00:21:48.000 Well, I remember, I tell people at the time, back in the summer of 23, you were up at 2 and 3 in the morning fighting for these cuts back then and being overridden by Republicans, not even Democrats.

00:21:59.000 The Republicans wouldn't even bring this out of conference.

00:22:03.000 You've been at the lead of this artificial intelligence.

00:22:05.000 Today there's a report that Altman, the head of ChatGPT, which, by the way, I think has something like 7 billion downloads or 7 billion hits, has actually said he's of the – this is a report that he's talking to people.

00:22:20.000 He thinks artificial general intelligence may already be here.

00:22:23.000 Can you get people up to date of your battle on the big, beautiful bill to insert federalism in here and about these – about the states being able to step up and do something about artificial intelligence?

00:22:36.000 Yes, thank you for asking me that.

00:22:38.000 So Sam Altman came out today and said that he thinks that AI may have surpassed human intelligence, that we've already crossed over into an area where AI can get ahead of us.

00:22:50.000 And I think that's – I find that terrifying.

00:22:53.000 Here's what shocked me is I could not believe under a Republican-controlled House that we had a small provision inserted in President Trump's one big, beautiful bill that was only supposed to be about taxes, energy, and border security.

00:23:08.000 And they put one clause in there that literally destroyed federalism for 10 years and tell states they cannot regulate or make laws on AI for 10 years, Steve.

00:23:19.000 And here's – let me tell you the dirty little secret.

00:23:22.000 Republicans in Congress up here, they have no plan on the federal level.

00:23:26.000 There is no legislation that's been introduced.

00:23:28.000 There is no legislation that they've talked to us about on how to regulate and make laws on the federal level.

00:23:35.000 But they want to go ahead and preemptively tie states' hands.

00:23:40.000 And we have Sam Altman coming out and saying that AI is already smarter than people.

00:23:45.000 And we haven't even added in to what will happen when AI is controlling robots and AI can control all kinds of things.

00:23:53.000 And there's no future that I want to see America living in, and my children especially, and future generations, where AI can replace humans, replace their jobs.

00:24:05.000 Because we're looking at a possibility of poverty we can't even comprehend, we've never seen in the history of America.

00:24:12.000 We're looking at the highest unemployment that could be possible because AI can replace so many sectors of jobs, especially when you add in what robots and robotics can do.

00:24:23.000 And I think this is just outrageous and irresponsible that Republicans can do this.

00:24:30.000 And I never saw President Trump campaign on that.

00:24:33.000 Not one time did I see that man stand on a rally stage and say to the American people that he wants to tie states' hands for 10 years to make laws and regulations on the future of AI.

00:24:47.000 But that got put in there, that was on the Energy and Commerce Committee that Brett Guthrie is the chair of.

00:24:54.000 And Jay Obernolte of California, who has spent the past almost two years now chairing and investigating and wrote a big report on AI.

00:25:04.000 That was the provision that was put in along with the AI lobby.

00:25:08.000 And now they're trying to fight to keep it.

00:25:10.000 And Steve, I know this is long, I'll finish up real quick.

00:25:13.000 It's in the Senate right now.

00:25:15.000 The one big, beautiful bill is in the Senate.

00:25:17.000 And I can talk about this as much as I want because it's going to come back to the House for another vote.

00:25:21.000 So we get another bite at the apple.

00:25:23.000 And in the Senate, the parliamentarian needs to take it out because under reconciliation, the rules are the bill cannot create policy.

00:25:31.000 And that is absolutely creating a policy that states can't do anything for 10 years.

00:25:36.000 So the parliamentarian really needs to take that out.

00:25:39.000 And then the second warning I have is Ted Cruz introduced an amendment.

00:25:45.000 And I don't know where it is right now.

00:25:47.000 He introduced an amendment that would change this one provision a little bit and tie it to broadband money.

00:25:54.000 It's under the beads, under beads, which is a program where states can get money for broadband because many rural red states don't have broadband.

00:26:05.000 And so it's really dangerous.

00:26:07.000 And if they take the money from the beads account, then they self impose the moratorium for 10 years with the they self impose.

00:26:16.000 They give up the ability to make regulations or laws for 10 years.

00:26:20.000 And that's the amendment that Ted Cruz is putting in.

00:26:23.000 I really don't want to see that amendment passed.

00:26:25.000 I want to see the Senate parliamentarian take it out.

00:26:28.000 And I want to see Republicans do this publicly and do it the right way for the American people to see instead of a provision that got snuck in the bill.

00:26:36.000 And we only had less than 24 hours to read over 1000 pages.

00:26:41.000 So long description, but it's a serious issue.

00:26:45.000 And Steve, we have to keep hammering on this one.

00:26:48.000 Huge issue.

00:26:49.000 I know the folks back home are very concerned about what's going to do for jobs and everything else.

00:26:53.000 Got a lot of upside, but unlimited downside.

00:26:56.000 MTG, social media.

00:26:58.000 Where do people go to keep up with you?

00:27:00.000 Yeah, follow me on Rep MTG.

00:27:03.000 And I really appreciate it, Steve.

00:27:06.000 Thank you, ma'am.

00:27:07.000 Great.

00:27:08.000 Thank you.

00:27:09.000 Kurt Mills, I'm going to hold you just through the break.

00:27:12.000 I got one more question I want to ask about what people should focus on since President Trump just put this truth social.

00:27:18.000 Also, some mixed messaging today.

00:27:20.000 We'll play it a little while.

00:27:21.000 You know, Tom Fitton is going to come up.

00:27:23.000 We've got some issues with the deep state.

00:27:25.000 There's actually some, I think a couple of the senior admirals.

00:27:29.000 I think Indo Paycom and another general actually went to the Bilderberg Group.

00:27:34.000 What?

00:27:35.000 What?

00:27:36.000 And some people from the White House?

00:27:37.000 What is going on?

00:27:39.000 The globalists don't need to hear from us.

00:27:42.000 They can watch the war room.

00:27:44.000 Don't need to go give them my ideas.

00:27:47.000 Unbelievable.

00:27:48.000 Kurt Mills is with us from Constantinople.

00:27:52.000 I think that shirt I had, the Christmas gift.

00:27:55.000 Free Constantinople is like it had more hits than anything we've ever done.

00:28:00.000 Short commercial break.

00:28:01.000 Take your phone out.

00:28:02.000 Turbulence.

00:28:03.000 You're in plenty.

00:28:04.000 Although, great news out of Treasury.

00:28:06.000 I think 20 year bonds oversubscribed today.

00:28:10.000 Scott Bessett getting the job done with the capital markets.

00:28:13.000 Great.

00:28:14.000 Oversubscription.

00:28:15.000 I think in 20 year treasuries had a tough time maybe getting interest in those.

00:28:19.000 Not anymore.

00:28:20.000 People like the numbers coming out under President Trump.

00:28:23.000 Short commercial break.

00:28:24.000 Back in the war room in a moment.

00:28:27.000 You've heard me talk about Patriot Mobile for a while now.

00:28:29.000 You probably know that for years they've stood in the gap for every American who believes

00:28:34.000 in faith, family and freedom.

00:28:37.000 So here's the question.

00:28:38.000 Have you switched to Patriot Mobile yet?

00:29:53.000 Thank you, President Trump.

00:29:54.000 I have two.

00:29:55.000 First, on immigration.

00:29:58.000 What made you change your mind about targeting in California farmers and people in the hotels

00:30:06.000 and leisure business?

00:30:07.000 Well, we're not targeting.

00:30:08.000 In fact, if you look today, I put out a statement today about farmers.

00:30:12.000 Our farmers are being hurt badly by, you know, they have very good workers.

00:30:16.000 They've worked for them for 20 years.

00:30:18.000 They're not citizens, but they've turned out to be, you know, great.

00:30:22.000 And we're going to have to do something about that.

00:30:24.000 We can't take farmers and take all their people and send them back because they don't 1.00

00:30:28.000 have maybe what they're supposed to have, maybe not.

00:30:32.000 And you know what's going to happen and what is happening?

00:30:34.000 They get rid of some of the people because, you know, you go into a farm and you look

00:30:38.000 and people don't, they've been there for 20, 25 years and they've worked great.

00:30:43.000 And the owner of the farm loves them and everything else.

00:30:45.000 And then you're supposed to throw them out.

00:30:47.000 And you know what happens?

00:30:48.000 They end up hiring the people, the criminals that have come in, the murderers from prisons

00:30:52.000 and everything else.

00:30:53.000 So we're going to have an order on that pretty soon, I think.

00:30:57.000 We can't do that to our farmers and leisure too, hotels.

00:31:01.000 We're going to have to use a lot of common sense on that.

00:31:04.000 And my other question about the Middle East.

00:31:08.000 Okay.

00:31:09.000 That, I think, was reversed a little bit later with a later truth social the president put

00:31:13.000 out.

00:31:14.000 But like the one on the rant, maybe it's open for interpretation.

00:31:17.000 But all I can say is, yo, Mr. President, we're in the fight of our lives right now.

00:31:23.000 I don't think it's time to be wobbly with interest groups of hotel operators and particularly

00:31:29.000 farmers, big agriculture.

00:31:31.000 If you look at what big agriculture has done to these small towns throughout the country

00:31:36.000 by hiring illegal alien labor, they've turned it into the third world. 0.99

00:31:40.000 This is one of the things we're fighting for.

00:31:42.000 And I know people in the White House are getting to you and getting your additional information.

00:31:45.000 But we cannot kowtow to big ag.

00:31:51.000 We can't do it.

00:31:52.000 We're in a fight now.

00:31:54.000 We got to lock ranks.

00:31:55.000 And hey, the watchword is, because there's reasons or excuses for everybody.

00:32:00.000 But hey, the thing is, they all got to go.

00:32:02.000 Now, I'm not saying the 30 or 40 million, we have to deal with that later.

00:32:05.000 The 10 million that came here on Biden's watch have to go.

00:32:09.000 That's 10 million people.

00:32:11.000 It's a massive undertaking.

00:32:13.000 And we're fighting now a war in every city, in every big city, every Democratic hellhole

00:32:18.000 in the country.

00:32:20.000 So I know people are going to be talking about this and getting into it.

00:32:23.000 But my strongest recommendation is now not the time to put in an executive order that clouds the situation.

00:32:29.000 This is all the Democrats are looking for.

00:32:32.000 And the Democrats are getting more and more violent.

00:32:34.000 He had a U.S. Senator today that actually, I think, got hostile to a cabinet secretary.

00:32:40.000 We're going to get into that in a second.

00:32:41.000 But this is getting as serious as possible.

00:32:45.000 Tom Fenton, part of this, and the part of the Iran thing, and even part of this, part of the deportation,

00:32:53.000 sealing the border, the deep state, the real apparatus that runs this government,

00:32:58.000 with all the great efforts President Trump's doing, the economics are coming through.

00:33:02.000 You saw the bond market today.

00:33:03.000 Scott Besson selling bonds.

00:33:04.000 Inflation numbers are down.

00:33:06.000 I mean, we're winning on every front.

00:33:08.000 But when the deep state gets involved, we make very little progress.

00:33:12.000 And this is the thing in Iran.

00:33:14.000 I'm not convinced that the CIA is on our side.

00:33:17.000 I'm just not.

00:33:18.000 Here's the question.

00:33:20.000 Did the CIA know anything about the Ukraine situation of attacking Russia?

00:33:26.000 We're not at war with Russia.

00:33:28.000 The American people are not at war with Russia.

00:33:31.000 McConnell yesterday is calling out people in the Pete Hegseth and saying,

00:33:36.000 is this going to be a victory for Russia or America?

00:33:38.000 We're not engaged in that war.

00:33:39.000 We're just not.

00:33:41.000 And this is what the deep state is trying to force it, inexorably, into that war.

00:33:45.000 It's something more in the Middle East. 0.98

00:33:47.000 They want to get back into the Middle East. 1.00

00:33:48.000 We have to fight this.

00:33:50.000 Do you think enough is being done right now?

00:33:52.000 Tom, you've been you're very close to cash.

00:33:54.000 You're very close to Dan Bongino and other people, Pam Bondi, everybody.

00:33:58.000 Do you think enough is being done right now to start to take apart the deep state?

00:34:02.000 Because this may be the most important of all the different verticals we've got.

00:34:06.000 A problem is President Trump has to solve.

00:34:08.000 If we don't solve this, it may not be worth it because they can just come back.

00:34:14.000 They can come back as soon as someone else's president, sir.

00:34:17.000 Well, you know, on the foreign policy issues you raise, I'm more hawkish than you are.

00:34:23.000 But I think we would both agree that the deep state's approach to Ukraine, Russia and Iran is not to solve any problems.

00:34:31.000 It's to manage problems.

00:34:33.000 Right.

00:34:34.000 And, you know, Biden didn't want Russia to win, but they also didn't want Russia to lose, which to me is a wild abuse of the citizens caught up in a war like that.

00:34:44.000 And same thing with Iran.

00:34:45.000 Either we want them to have nukes or we don't.

00:34:49.000 Let's not manage their nuclear program. 0.89

00:34:51.000 We're not in a position to do so.

00:34:53.000 And that's what the deep state specializes in, creating problems that have to be managed rather than solved.

00:35:00.000 And I know that's not Trump's general approach.

00:35:03.000 Now, on these issues related, though, to the agencies themselves, I'm not quite sure why we still have a CIA, given their failures, their documented records of failures over the decades.

00:35:16.000 There's not a darn thing the CIA does that the military agencies can't do, the intelligence agencies can't and shouldn't, and certainly the State Department can take up a lot of the slack as well.

00:35:28.000 And, you know, and my colleague, Michael Morrison, had a really strong analysis of the situation that Cash and Don are in, that Dan are in in the FBI.

00:35:41.000 You know, are they, you know, the title was, are they hostages of the deep state?

00:35:46.000 And I think there's a strong argument that they're hostages of the deep state consensus.

00:35:52.000 And on top of that, as Michael points out in the piece, you've got the inertia of just bureaucracies.

00:35:59.000 You've got the political calendar.

00:36:02.000 And in many ways, in my view, they're distracted from their core responsibility, I think, which is to dismantle the FBI and protect the republic.

00:36:14.000 I mean, the left tried to kill President Trump last year.

00:36:17.000 They tried to throw him in jail.

00:36:19.000 They've been fomenting an insurrection.

00:36:22.000 We had, right now, a political leader of the Democratic Party, a senator from California, assault law enforcement as he was disrupting a press briefing.

00:36:34.000 They're putting the country on the precipice.

00:36:37.000 And, you know, I would submit this insurrection.

00:36:40.000 It's the other side of the coin to the warfare against Trump.

00:36:45.000 And you get these folks an inch, they will take a mile.

00:36:49.000 And it's about protecting the republic in the end.

00:36:52.000 And the FBI is an instrumentality of those who would destroy the republic.

00:36:58.000 And Dan and Cash may be running it for now.

00:37:02.000 But organizationally and institutionally, I don't think they're redeemable.

00:37:06.000 And in the least, you know, give us the documents.

00:37:10.000 Be transparent.

00:37:11.000 I'm not seeing that.

00:37:13.000 It's been months, Steve.

00:37:15.000 And I'm sorry.

00:37:16.000 It's a long time.

00:37:19.000 You know, when the January 6th prosecutions happened, they immediately bolted out of the gate.

00:37:25.000 Remember the left, targeted everyone, prosecuted, raided, you name it.

00:37:30.000 And Trump was in sights for jailing within minutes of Biden taking office, even arguably before then.

00:37:38.000 And I'm just not seeing the urgency.

00:37:41.000 Look, in the Senate, you know, I know Senator Thunes, people probably don't like the fact we tweeted this out.

00:37:46.000 But conservatives are upset.

00:37:48.000 They've got 100 Trump appointees languishing on the floor of the Senate.

00:37:53.000 The committees have done the work.

00:37:56.000 But they can't be bothered to work five days a week to move the nominees past the floor.

00:38:02.000 These are not nominees that are going to be waylaid, that, you know, they're going to lose.

00:38:06.000 They just got to stay in session to vote on them so that Trump has a team in place to deal with these deep state issues we're talking about.

00:38:16.000 No one in Washington thinks anything is important enough to get in the way of their time off.

00:38:26.000 Certainly that's true on the Hill.

00:38:28.000 It's all about managing how much time they can get away from town, not to do the work, but to just not do work.

00:38:37.000 Your recommendation, I agree with you on the CIA.

00:38:40.000 I kept Kurt around to follow up with him.

00:38:43.000 On the FBI, you're a man of action.

00:38:45.000 What is the one action you would recommend that Cash and Dan take to start to take apart the FBI that you would feel comfortable about, that you would see some movement in this?

00:38:54.000 They need to start firing people on mass.

00:38:59.000 They need to do a riff, big time, in the least.

00:39:03.000 Look to see what happened over at USAID.

00:39:07.000 Follow Secretary McMahon's leadership at Department of Education.

00:39:13.000 And, you know, they may need direction and buy-in from the president to do this specifically, but there's not a duty and responsibility of the FBI that other federal law enforcement,

00:39:23.000 agencies can't do.

00:39:26.000 And I'll tell you, if these agencies, and I've complained to leadership in Congress about this,

00:39:32.000 if these agencies are basically the same size, with no curtailing of power, not even much in the way of budgetary haircuts,

00:39:42.000 after four years, Trump will be targeted for prosecution and everyone around him, including you, including me,

00:39:49.000 will be worried about our freedom again within a second of the opposition coming back into power.

00:39:56.000 President Trump and his family will be, if we don't take this deep state down, they'll be in prison.

00:40:01.000 They manufacture stuff.

00:40:03.000 They're going to come after President Trump.

00:40:05.000 They're going to come after President Trump.

00:40:07.000 There's no doubt about it.

00:40:08.000 Look how livid they are now.

00:40:10.000 The hate right now you see among these people is greater than the worst in his first term.

00:40:17.000 Worse.

00:40:18.000 They're rabid now.

00:40:19.000 And as we go through the deportations of 10 million, it's going to get worse.

00:40:23.000 Tom, we've got to bounce.

00:40:24.000 I've got to have you back on.

00:40:25.000 We're going to drill down on this maybe on a special.

00:40:27.000 Where do people go to get all your...

00:40:29.000 I agree with you.

00:40:30.000 This has got to come to the top of the stack.

00:40:32.000 It's got to be a priority.

00:40:34.000 We've got to start with the FBI and the CIA.

00:40:37.000 The CIA is a total complete disaster has led this country into these forever wars that never needed to happen.

00:40:44.000 All the intelligence is always wrong, always wrong.

00:40:47.000 And I say that as somebody that has looked at the intelligence, sat there every day and say, hey, guys, what do you got here?

00:40:54.000 They always get it wrong.

00:40:56.000 And that just can't be...

00:40:57.000 You can read the Washington Post.

00:40:59.000 You can read the Washington Post.

00:41:00.000 You don't need the CIA.

00:41:02.000 I mean, that's what they read before they go in.

00:41:04.000 They go to JudicialWatch.org.

00:41:06.000 We're all over the Internet.

00:41:07.000 You know, social media, Twitter, Instagram, you name it.

00:41:12.000 Your videos you put up are amazing.

00:41:15.000 Tom Fitton, thank you.

00:41:16.000 We're going to press this.

00:41:17.000 We've got to.

00:41:18.000 Tom's right.

00:41:19.000 If it exists at the budget levels and the size at the end of President Trump's second term, we haven't done anything.

00:41:27.000 We haven't done our jobs.

00:41:29.000 Kurt Mills, do you think we're you think we can take down the CIA, sir?

00:41:33.000 You know, I thought that was a fascinating segment.

00:41:37.000 So Fitton just said that he's more hawkish than you.

00:41:40.000 And so, you know, I think compared to me, that makes him a dragon.

00:41:44.000 And I think he said that, one, he's committed to no Iranian nuclear weapon.

00:41:50.000 But he said, two, that he's not interested at all in Trump managing the details of Iran's nuclear program.

00:41:58.000 And then he linked it to the CIA, which is, you know, very, very interesting.

00:42:03.000 And as Green, Congressman Green linked at the beginning of the program, she said that, you know, the Iran nuclear program has been a sort of bugbear, has been a sort of scare tactic of hawks and deep state operatives for going on 20 years.

00:42:19.000 And she's right. The reality here is the goalpost keeps getting moved.

00:42:25.000 First, with Iran, it was no nuclear weapon. Then it was no enrichment.

00:42:32.000 And after in this, you know, hypothetical horror show scenario where there is regime change in Iran, I'm sitting in Turkey right now.

00:42:41.000 And I would flag, there was an article in the Atlantic magazine, you know, the Jeffrey Goldberg magazine that Mike Waltz, unfortunately, potentially was a correspondent with.

00:42:54.000 I'm sitting here in Istanbul, and there was an article by a gentleman named Raul Mark Correct of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies earlier this spring that argued that it's time to be looking at Turkey.

00:43:07.000 Even if the U.S. was to give the hawks in Washington, the operatives within CIA in the deep state, and many of our putative allies in Jerusalem what they wanted, even if we were to give them an Iran war, you know what would be next? The Turkey War.

00:43:25.000 So it really is, if you give a mouse a cookie, and I think, you know, if Trump doesn't want his legacy to be just doing the will of these people and being forgotten in American history, if he wants to have fought for the last 10 years for something more than this, he's got to put his foot down here.

00:43:42.000 And that truth, as we discussed minutes ago, is an indication that he's in that direction.

00:43:48.460 Kurt, hang over a second. I want you to give your social media on the other side.

00:43:51.000 Health isn't just a personal issue. It's a family issue, a community issue.

00:43:58.020 We're living in unpredictable times. Supply chains can break down. Hospitals can get overwhelmed, and let's not even start on the natural disasters.

00:44:06.040 These aren't hypotheticals. They're happening. You see it here in the war room, and we all know it.

00:45:12.000 Kurt Mills, where do people go?

00:45:13.680 By the way, our good friend, a guy, I think the world of Josh Hammer's coming after Kurt, too.

00:45:19.080 We'll deal with that, if not over the weekend, early next week, because we think a lot about Josh, and we think the world of you.

00:45:24.460 And Josh is saying, I don't know, you're the magazine publisher from Qatar or something.

00:45:30.820 Where do people go to get your content so they can make their own decision?

00:45:36.260 Well, obviously, Josh's claim is an abject lie, but I'll let him speak for himself.

00:45:41.240 I'm happy to plug our stuff.

00:45:43.380 The magazine is The American Conservative.

00:45:46.160 We were founded in 2002 by conservatives and friends against the Iraq War, a call, I think, safe to say, we got right. 0.99

00:45:54.460 It was founded by Pat Buchanan, Scott McConnell, and Tacky.

00:45:58.540 And it is www.theamericanconservative.com.

00:46:01.880 We also have a print vertical if you care to subscribe.

00:46:04.340 And you can find my own personal stuff, you know, representing the magazine at at C-U-R-T-M-I-L-L-S on X at Kurt Mills.

00:46:13.620 Thanks, Steve.

00:46:14.580 And Kurt is breaking information as you go and aggregating information about this entire situation in Persia.

00:46:22.200 Kurt, thank you so much for joining us tonight.

00:46:24.500 Appreciate you.

00:46:25.280 And sticking around.

00:46:27.500 Let's play.

00:46:28.180 Things are heating up and not in a good way.

00:46:30.400 Let's go ahead and play this clip and we'll bring in Steve Cortez.

00:46:33.480 Sir, sir.

00:46:35.300 Hands up.

00:46:35.900 Hands up.

00:46:37.060 I'm Senator Alex Padilla.

00:46:38.560 I have a question for the secretary because the fact of the matter is a half a dozen violent criminals that you're rotating on your, on your.

00:46:48.740 I also want to tell you specifically how many of our icepaces have been shot.

00:46:56.320 On the ground.

00:46:58.500 On the ground.

00:46:59.320 On the ground.

00:47:00.720 Hands upon your back.

00:47:02.320 Hands upon your back.

00:47:02.940 Let me jump in here. 0.53

00:47:07.280 Cortez, this whole thing about violent criminals.

00:47:09.200 Now you've got a U.S. senator.

00:47:10.340 That's a senator trying to get violent and really, I don't know, attack.

00:47:14.700 A cabinet member is given a press conference.

00:47:17.640 This thing's starting to look pre-Civil War, is it not, sir?

00:47:20.900 It looks pretty insurrection-y, doesn't it?

00:47:23.520 No, indeed it does. 0.98

00:47:24.940 And look, Padilla is a clown who is searching for relevance. 0.96

00:47:29.300 I think when the bad hombres of the country, including his home state, see that tape, they're going to say, that's a payoso right there. 0.99

00:47:36.280 That's a clown. 0.97

00:47:37.640 By the way, note that he's in Los Angeles is where that happened. 0.97

00:47:40.500 So the biggest city in his home state, and yet no one seemed to know who he was.

00:47:45.340 That's how unremarkable he is.

00:47:47.240 In addition, of course, he did not look and did not act the way that a U.S. senator should.

00:47:51.540 Let's also remember, by the way, he wasn't elected to that position.

00:47:54.200 He was appointed by Gavin Newsom to replace Kamala Harris.

00:47:57.800 So talk about an awful, unholy trinity, Kamala Harris, Newsom, and Padilla of three very self-absorbed but totally unimpressive people.

00:48:08.640 But to the substance here, which I think is important, let's remember that only 11 months ago, Donald Trump was shot.

00:48:17.500 Donald Trump bled in Butler merely months ago. 0.56

00:48:20.900 So the idea that Padilla thinks that he can accost, charge the stage, rant and heckle the director, the secretary of Homeland Security, one of the most sensitive national security positions in the entire United States, and get away with it is simply ludicrous.

00:48:37.100 It's a good thing that those agents acted quickly and with force because they should.

00:48:41.320 As a matter of fact, he's lucky that they didn't act with even more force.

00:48:44.920 You know, I mentioned the bad hombres, by the way, Steve, you know, I do a lot of polling.

00:48:48.440 We are in the field right now polling.

00:48:50.160 We're almost done with a poll that we started on Monday.

00:48:52.480 We've been doing all week.

00:48:53.280 So we started it after the worst part of the L.A. riots and after Trump and Newsom really started going at each other.

00:49:01.180 And in this polling, guess what has happened so far?

00:49:03.640 Again, not quite finalized, but support for mass deportations rising even further.

00:49:08.460 On a national basis, looking at all demographic groups, it's about two to one in favor among Hispanics on a national basis, about plus 20 in favor of mass deportations.

00:49:20.560 We also asked specifically about arresting people who have engaged in violence or who are interfering with with law enforcement, federal law enforcement deportation operations.

00:49:31.420 Support for those arrests and for convicting those cretins, that is about three to one overall and plus 40 percent among Hispanics. 1.00

00:49:40.980 So I'll get you the final exact numbers when we have them.

00:49:43.740 But the point here is there is a preponderance, a super majority of Americans who believe in law and order and who reject these kind of clownish antics that are dangerous for this country.

00:49:54.620 Not just foolish, but actually dangerous for this country from people like Alex Padilla. 0.69

00:49:59.040 Steve, when we talk about mass deportations, we mean mass deportations. 0.98

00:50:03.620 Every night now on TV, Trump lied.

00:50:05.700 He just talked about criminals.

00:50:06.900 Trump never just talked about criminals.

00:50:08.520 He talked.

00:50:08.900 He's talked day one about mass deportations.

00:50:11.360 This gets to the situation about agriculture.

00:50:13.640 I'll do more about that tomorrow.

00:50:15.020 But we got to we got to make sure we have a concise message and we stick to that message, particularly now when it's going to this weekend.

00:50:22.220 It's going to get violent all over the country.

00:50:23.960 This is spreading.

00:50:24.660 What is your what is your rejoinder to these Democrats now saying he just said there was violent criminals and yet he's going in and starting to deport the people?

00:50:33.560 What is your response or what is your polling show?

00:50:36.340 Sure.

00:50:36.700 Well, again, the polling clearly supports mass deportations using that exact phrase.

00:50:42.420 Now, in terms of priorities, of course, you're going to get the most dangerous people out first.

00:50:47.880 Of course, I support and I think it just makes common sense to prioritize those who just invaded under the open door of Mayorkas and Biden and Kamala Harris.

00:50:57.520 That makes sense.

00:50:58.700 But that doesn't mean that the others are excluded, that the other tens of millions of illegal migrants who trespassed into our country, who broke and entered into our homeland.

00:51:07.020 It doesn't mean that they get to stay.

00:51:09.360 No, not at all.

00:51:10.700 Look, every person who came here illegally is unwelcome and has to go. 0.98

00:51:16.100 Now, I think Donald Trump has been very generous, President Trump and his administration, by saying those who self-deport, we will incentivize it for you.

00:51:24.080 We will pay for your plane ticket.

00:51:25.340 We will give you a small amount of money courtesy of the American people.

00:51:28.400 You can reapply.

00:51:29.860 That's incredibly magnanimous and merciful if you choose to self-deport so that we don't have to come get you, so that we don't have to send federal agents into dangerous situations, into expensive operations to find you.

00:51:41.280 I think that's as merciful as we should get, quite frankly, Steve.

00:51:44.820 I think it makes sense, that incentive.

00:51:47.040 But that's, to me, the limit of mercy from American citizens toward those who broke and entered into our homeland. 0.99

00:51:54.720 You've got documentaries up.

00:51:56.160 You've got everything.

00:51:56.720 Where do people go for your social media and to your website?

00:51:59.640 Yeah, please find me, cortesinvestigates.com.
