Bannon's War Room - Episode 4565： President Trump Heads To The Situation Room

00:00:00.000 There aren't many people representing the, hey, let's have less violence and focus on America side of things.

00:00:07.120 I think we're going to see the end of American empire, obviously.

00:00:09.760 Other nations would like to see that, and this is a perfect way to scuttle the USS America on the shoals of Iran. 0.99

00:00:15.820 But it's also going to end, I believe, Trump's presidency.

00:00:20.580 In an interview with The Atlantic, Trump hit back at some of these critics saying he is the one who came up with America first in the first place.

00:00:28.100 So he gets to decide what it means.

00:00:31.360 This is, I mean, we were just talking about peace, right?

00:00:33.620 Like Trump, it feels like he's a little bit at war with himself because he said all the time, I mean, he wants to be known as the peacemaker, the dealmaker, the guy who ends wars.

00:00:42.880 And yet here he finds himself defending another war.

00:00:46.580 Well, I don't know. I don't think Trump's defending the war.

00:00:48.780 Trump's defending Israel's actions.

00:00:50.400 And within a week or two, he's going to try to find an off ramp to bring it to peace.

00:00:53.540 And as for Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon, they do not define what the MAGA or the conservative base is. 0.99

00:00:58.140 There's two idiot conspiracy theorists. 1.00

00:01:00.040 The base, the MAGA base, the conservative base, believe me, they're all behind Trump. 1.00

00:01:03.620 And that's it.

00:01:04.060 He's the one that calls the shots on what kind of defines that MAGA base.

00:01:08.660 And he's not trying to get us into a war.

00:01:10.020 He's trying to get us out of that war.

00:01:11.780 And yes, and he understands the political ramifications if it goes too long, if it doesn't work out.

00:01:16.480 So that's why I think he's back in D.C. doing everything they can to kind of cut a deal to end this within a couple years.

00:01:20.540 than the governor's given credit for, meaning I think that this is really a divisive issue within MAGA.

00:01:27.000 I don't think everyone in MAGA is saying, OK, you know, we're with Trump on this.

00:01:31.320 I think there are a number, a good number of high profile MAGA figures who are saying this is not what we signed up for.

00:01:39.220 Now, does that mean they're going to stop supporting Donald Trump?

00:01:41.560 No, but but but it means that on this issue, we're seeing a fracture that we have not seen up to this point within MAGA world.

00:01:51.460 And that's that is a big deal.

00:01:53.080 South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham, Senator, you know, you were praising the president for his patience and seeking peace and going back to the table and back to the table.

00:02:02.640 You can't say that he didn't try to give them an out, an opportunity, knowing what the eventual outcome was going to be.

00:02:11.260 And, you know, he said, I told them it's a shame.

00:02:14.620 It's a waste of human life.

00:02:15.780 They can't have a nuclear weapon and everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran. 0.98

00:02:20.680 How do you interpret that, sir?

00:02:22.820 Well, I take president at his word.

00:02:24.920 He gave Iran 60 days to do a deal on 60, the 61st day.

00:02:30.760 We are where we are.

00:02:32.380 There's two ways to stop Iran from having a nuclear weapon.

00:02:35.560 One is diplomacy.

00:02:36.820 The other is force.

00:02:38.200 I think the headline tonight is we're moving into the land of force.

00:02:42.640 I think Iran has allowed themselves to be fooled into thinking they could manipulate Trump. 0.98

00:02:50.800 Same old tactics with the wrong guy when it comes to Trump.

00:02:54.600 To all those who voted for President Trump and got him in office, God bless you.

00:02:59.280 He's the right guy at the right time.

00:03:01.500 These are dangerous times.

00:03:02.900 Why do we say no nuclear weapon for Iran?

00:03:06.420 They're a religious theocracy.

00:03:08.320 They're built around the extreme version of Islam. 0.97

00:03:11.300 They want to destroy Saudi Arabia and the Sunni branch of Islam. 1.00

00:03:15.540 They want to kill all the Jews in Israel and come after us. 0.99

00:03:18.700 That's what their whole country is built upon, a theocratic view that there's nobody else in the world but them when it comes to worshiping God. 1.00

00:03:27.380 If they had a nuclear weapon, they would use it.

00:03:29.760 Israel believes that.

00:03:30.740 I believe that.

00:03:31.660 So here's the task at hand.

00:03:34.500 Be all in, President Trump, in helping Israel eliminate the nuclear threat. 0.53

00:03:39.300 If we need to provide bombs to Israel, provide bombs. 0.97

00:03:42.720 If we need to fly planes with Israel, do joint operations.

00:03:46.240 But here's the bigger question.

00:03:47.940 Wouldn't the world be better off if the Ayatollahs went away and replaced by something better? 1.00

00:03:52.740 Wouldn't Iran be better off? 1.00

00:03:54.640 Tom Cotton is coming on.

00:03:56.240 He made a great observation.

00:03:57.820 The endless war is Iran. 0.67

00:03:59.040 Since 1979, they've been attacking the entire region, chanting death to America, death to Israel since their very founding. 0.99

00:04:06.980 It's time to close the chapter on the Iranian Ayatollah and his henchmen. 0.94

00:04:10.820 Let's close that chapter soon and start a new chapter in the Mideast, one of tolerance, hope, and peace.

00:04:16.360 What specifically is better than a ceasefire?

00:04:18.600 What are you looking for here?

00:04:21.720 An end.

00:04:22.860 A real end, not a ceasefire.

00:04:24.440 An end.

00:04:24.860 So something that will be permanent?

00:04:26.460 Yeah.

00:04:26.980 Or giving up entirely.

00:04:30.340 Is that okay, too?

00:04:31.280 Are you close there?

00:04:32.240 Are you possible?

00:04:33.020 Is that possible in a 24-hour?

00:04:34.600 Why not?

00:04:35.460 Certainly possible.

00:04:37.320 A complete give up.

00:04:39.700 That's possible.

00:04:40.420 The president's saying he would be in the White House Situation Room this morning, and he also posted this after touching down, quote,

00:04:48.760 I have not reached out to Iran for peace talks in any way, shape, or form.

00:04:54.780 According to the Washington Post, ICE officials told agents they must continue the sweeps after hearing from DHS leadership that the White House does not support an exemption policy.

00:05:07.840 An assistant secretary for DHS said yesterday, quote,

00:05:11.980 worksite enforcement remains a cornerstone of its immigration crackdown efforts, and there are no, quote, safe spaces for industries.

00:05:22.540 The paper also reports White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, an architect of Trump's immigration policy,

00:05:29.680 privately opposed carving out exemptions for certain industries that rely heavily on workers without legal status,

00:05:38.120 according to two people with knowledge of his advocacy in recent days.

00:05:43.320 So let's explain this, too.

00:05:45.400 There may actually be even more to this politically for domestic politics, MAGA politics, more than anything else.

00:05:54.700 Tucker Carlson going on Steve Bannon's show yesterday and again saying that Donald Trump going along with Netanyahu could not only destroy the American empire,

00:06:05.620 but also destroy his presidency.

00:06:08.280 We've heard other people, other Fox News commentators and others out there in the right wing MAGA sort of media sphere

00:06:16.320 talking about this civil war that's coming domestically inside, saying that Donald Trump's going to destroy his presidency.

00:06:24.300 So is that what he's saying?

00:06:26.320 Donald Trump supporting Israel is really America first, and that's why people need to just, you know, people on MAGA base need to go along with this?

00:06:36.540 Yeah, that's the subtext here.

00:06:37.940 There's been a real divide, particularly in the last couple of days, and it really exploded yesterday, as you said.

00:06:42.680 It's almost a civil war within the MAGA movement.

00:06:44.860 There's the Tucker Carlson wing that is saying, don't be involved in Iran.

00:06:49.040 You know, when Donald Trump first ran for office 10 years ago yesterday, he pledged to no more, not be involved in these forever wars,

00:06:55.680 no more Middle East entanglements and the like.

00:06:57.680 America first, much more of an isolationist view.

00:07:00.220 Then there's the other side of this.

00:07:02.060 Mark Levine, Charlie and some of the, Rupert Murdoch and others members of that wing who say, no, now is the time where Iran is weak.

00:07:10.640 The U.S. should be involved, if not directly, but at least support Israel's efforts.

00:07:14.900 And there is a schism here, and President Trump, well aware of this schism.

00:07:18.660 He, in fact, called Tucker Carlson kooky last night in a social media post after Carlson called him complicit in what we're seeing in Iran right now.

00:07:26.940 And I am told by people close to the president, he's mindful of trying to satisfy both bases,

00:07:32.340 and that's why we're getting a little bit of a waffling.

00:07:35.820 He's not quite sure how to navigate this very fast-moving situation in the Middle East.

00:07:40.240 Israelis are on edge.

00:07:43.320 The Israelis do feel that they have the upper hand. 0.98

00:07:46.520 They have the upper hand militarily, as you've been talking about.

00:07:49.620 The Israeli Air Force says it now has complete freedom of operation over Tehran.

00:07:56.440 But the Iranians are still firing some missiles at Israel, but last night on a relatively small scale,

00:08:03.560 not this massive attack that they had been threatening.

00:08:06.940 And one thing, Joe, you mentioned earlier about the concern that these early military successes that Israel is having,

00:08:16.720 will it give it a false sense of security?

00:08:19.180 Will it lead to more action?

00:08:21.780 Is there a 2002 dynamic here?

00:08:24.320 And that is exactly what many senior officials across the Middle East who I'm speaking to are worried about.

00:08:31.140 They're telling me that this all feels like 2002 all over again,

00:08:35.700 that there's discussion of redrawing the map of the Middle East, changing the mentality of the Middle East,

00:08:41.480 regime change in the Middle East, allegations of weapons of mass destruction imminently being ready

00:08:48.140 and imminently going to be used in a variety of locations, and not here necessarily in Israel,

00:08:54.300 but across the Arab world.

00:08:55.860 I'm hearing this on a daily basis.

00:08:58.940 People are worried, are we back in 2002?

00:09:01.520 Are we back in 2003 all over again?

00:09:04.320 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

00:09:11.860 Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.

00:09:17.080 You're just not going to get a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.

00:09:21.340 The people have had a belly full of it.

00:09:23.240 I know you don't like hearing that.

00:09:24.680 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.

00:09:27.380 It's going to happen.

00:09:28.420 And where do people like that go to share the big line?

00:09:32.040 MAGA Media.

00:09:33.380 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:09:38.820 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:09:42.580 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:09:48.920 War Room.

00:09:49.800 Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

00:09:52.120 It's Tuesday, 17 June, the year of our Lord, 2025.

00:10:00.020 The president did come back from Calgary from the G7, obviously, to deal with the situation in the Middle East.

00:10:07.460 Also, I think he was getting pretty bored hanging out with those guys, you could tell.

00:10:12.400 You know, he's not a fan of a couple of three of those guys, starting with the president of France.

00:10:17.260 Yes, we're on tenterhooks.

00:10:22.840 Is there going to be some sort of military engagement by the United States and what's going on in Persia?

00:10:28.460 Or is President Trump going to have Steve Witkoff one more time give him a, hey, here's the deal.

00:10:34.280 You either do this deal.

00:10:35.180 You can't have a nuclear weapon.

00:10:36.620 I can't emphasize enough how much President Trump has been emphasizing this since he got on the plane last night.

00:10:42.180 He's told the Persians they can't have a nuclear weapon.

00:10:45.960 They're not going to have a nuclear weapon, and we'll see if they go the route of trying to make a deal.

00:10:51.360 Although I'm not so sure how much, outside of Fodor, I'm not so sure how much of their actual nuclear infrastructure even exists.

00:10:58.640 Israelis have the IDF, the Air Force, has air superiority.

00:11:02.760 I would actually say air supremacy, I think, over Tehran.

00:11:06.860 And they're essentially firing at will, or it seems like that.

00:11:11.500 So this is going to, who knows how long this regime even lasts.

00:11:15.800 In fact, there's all this discussion.

00:11:17.680 Has the Israeli plan started with taking out the nuclear capabilities?

00:11:23.200 Has it been regime change?

00:11:24.260 We said on Friday morning it looked like it was a decapitation move of everything except the religious leaders, 0.83

00:11:30.180 but certainly the military and President Trump.

00:11:33.400 There's reports President Trump said, no, we're not going to go after, not going to allow you to go after and assassinate the religious leaders.

00:11:41.040 Who knows if that has changed?

00:11:42.480 Who knows if even many of those guys are still alive?

00:11:45.060 President Trump's been pretty adamant that the negotiating team at the senior level that Wyckoff is supposed to meet with,

00:11:53.300 I think he said publicly they're all dead, right?

00:11:56.340 So I'm sure they have other people deputized.

00:12:00.940 But obviously President Trump is pretty adamant.

00:12:03.900 They're not going to have nuclear weapons.

00:12:05.080 He's been adamant from the beginning, as we in the war room have been adamant.

00:12:08.820 We think there's a way to go about it that uses economic warfare and allows the Persian people to overthrow the mullahs, 0.99

00:12:16.820 because the mullahs are, there's no question whether they're bad guys or not. 1.00

00:12:21.080 They're essentially very bad guys.

00:12:23.120 President Trump now, I think, weighing and measuring what's going to happen here.

00:12:27.700 Is he going to continue on trying to make a deal and have them give up their nuclear weapons?

00:12:31.960 And he was pretty specific that we could go in and tear it apart, break it down,

00:12:36.300 which is very much different than the verify, the verification prospects they were talking about.

00:12:43.260 And President Trump, I think, says, hey, I had a deal with you guys.

00:12:46.240 You had the deal.

00:12:47.020 You could have signed the deal.

00:12:47.840 You didn't.

00:12:48.440 And you got what you got.

00:12:49.580 There's obviously a lot of pressure.

00:12:52.640 You saw Lindsey Graham last night, Tom Cotton, the whole Fox network.

00:12:56.740 You heard it from Tucker yesterday.

00:12:58.180 The Fox network has been relentless in pressuring, trying to pressure President Trump to get in here

00:13:03.360 and actually give what would be essentially air assets, combat air assets, both refueling possibilities,

00:13:10.960 the bunker-busting bombs, particularly American combat sorties into Persia.

00:13:17.640 That all hangs in the balance.

00:13:19.620 The president of the United States, I believe, is either have already met at least on an interim basis with his national security council,

00:13:26.420 his top national security advisors, and or is going to do that shortly.

00:13:30.140 And I'm sure in and out throughout the day they'll be doing that.

00:13:33.080 And President Trump will be weighing and measuring what he's going to do.

00:13:37.920 And we'll see how this day proceeds.

00:13:41.080 But right now I can tell you there's a tremendous amount of pressure on President Trump.

00:13:44.540 You saw from Lindsey Graham last night.

00:13:46.500 In fact, I might play that clip again.

00:13:48.260 But I'm afraid that some of the war and positive, I can look at the live chat, may have heart palpitations.

00:13:58.020 Hopefully, you know, somebody arises out of South Carolina to challenge Lindsey 0.93

00:14:03.540 because he's been the tip of the tip of the spear both in Ukraine and now in Persia.

00:14:08.900 We're going to take a short commercial break.

00:14:10.920 John Solomon broke a huge...

00:14:12.740 Look, we wouldn't have been in this mess, in this situation,

00:14:15.140 if it had not been for the illegitimate Biden regime.

00:14:18.280 Remember, those guys kind of came in for four years between first President Trump term

00:14:21.920 and second President Trump term.

00:14:23.720 How did that happen?

00:14:25.560 The election was stolen.

00:14:26.920 We've been adamant about that.

00:14:27.920 We got banned on every platform in the world.

00:14:30.020 You know, Spotify has welcomed us back.

00:14:32.680 Go check us out at Spotify at Banna's War Room.

00:14:36.100 And leave us a review.

00:14:37.220 We'd love to get that.

00:14:38.440 Or if you go on Apple, leave us a review.

00:14:40.500 We'd love to hear your comments and observations.

00:14:42.980 But it's the stolen election of 2020.

00:14:46.520 John Solomon's got an amazing story about, guess what?

00:14:50.160 The Chinese Communist Party involved in the big steal in 2020.

00:14:54.700 He's got an exclusive.

00:14:55.680 Solomon will join us.

00:14:56.720 Senator Josh Hawley will join us.

00:14:58.720 Mike Lindell.

00:14:59.440 This July, there is a global summit of BRICS nations in Rio de Janeiro.

00:15:04.820 The bloc of emerging superpowers, including China, Russia, India, and Persia,

00:15:10.460 are meeting with the goal of displacing the United States dollar as the global currency.

00:15:15.720 They're calling this the Rio Reset.

00:15:18.740 As BRICS nations push forward with their plans, global demand for U.S. dollars will decrease, 0.57

00:15:23.400 bringing down the value of the dollar in your savings.

00:15:26.560 While this transition won't not happen overnight, but trust me, it's going to start in Rio.

00:15:33.440 The Rio Reset in July marks a pivotal moment when BRICS objectives move decisively from a theoretical possibility

00:15:40.960 towards an inevitable reality.

00:16:27.580 It's New York.

00:16:28.700 Look, I understand America first. 0.60

00:16:30.940 I don't understand America dead.

00:16:32.900 That's what these people want. 0.97

00:16:34.200 They chant death to America.

00:16:36.020 So we're doing something that is in the service of mankind, of humanity, and it's a battle of good against evil.

00:16:43.020 America does, should and does stand with the good.

00:16:46.100 That's what President Trump is doing, and I deeply appreciate his support.

00:16:50.280 John Carl joins me now.

00:16:52.640 So, John, what else did he say about President Trump and how he wants the U.S. to play a role here, or did he?

00:16:58.640 Well, look, he praised President Trump over and over again in this interview.

00:17:02.920 He knows that he needs the United States' support, at least in terms of doing what the U.S. is doing now,

00:17:08.860 which is helping Israel defend itself from those retaliatory attacks from Iran.

00:17:15.480 So it was all couched in a thank you, President Trump.

00:17:18.500 You've been Israel's best friend.

00:17:20.580 But he made it clear that he would like to see more.

00:17:24.620 He didn't come out and directly say it in those ways.

00:17:27.720 But what you heard, what you played right there, I understand America first.

00:17:32.040 I don't understand America dead.

00:17:34.900 He is really speaking to those in the Trump movement, those in the MAGA movement,

00:17:41.360 who are adamantly opposed to the United States getting involved in another Middle East conflict.

00:17:46.340 And as you know, Kira, there are some prominent voices, supporters, outside advisors of Donald Trump,

00:17:54.180 who are saying, don't get involved.

00:17:56.740 The United States can't be involved.

00:17:58.660 You campaigned against forever wars.

00:18:00.960 People like Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, Charlie Kirk, those are, you know,

00:18:06.140 close supporters of Donald Trump who are saying that they don't think the United States should be involved in this.

00:18:11.960 And Netanyahu, it seemed to me, by using their language, I understand America first.

00:18:17.660 I don't understand America dead, was speaking directly to Donald Trump and to his supporters who are critical of what Israel is doing.

00:18:27.980 Okay, here's, we'd like to do an exercise.

00:18:29.860 I tried it last night, but in the live chats, because we have, you know, so many people in these live chats, all of them.

00:18:35.320 You know, Getter, Rav, the Telegram, of course, the bruisers over at Rumble.

00:18:44.280 I love the Rumble crowd.

00:18:45.720 I love all the crowds.

00:18:46.740 The Rumble will tell you what they think quickly.

00:18:49.720 Give us a response right now.

00:18:51.340 I'd like to hear, what's your thoughts on Netanyahu's, it's not America first, it's America dead. 0.70

00:18:56.740 I'd like to have your response to that, because he's addressing you.

00:19:00.140 So let's get some feedback on that as we go.

00:19:02.780 So, like I said, President Trump weighing and measuring what's going on.

00:19:08.060 I think, I do report that the rapid response, I think, over at the White House, has put out something by General Crilla over at CENTCOM.

00:19:21.080 I'll put that up in the chats right now so you can see it, and we'll address that in the next thing.

00:19:25.580 It looks like his intelligence or his estimate is a little different than DNI and Tulsi Gabbard and the entire crowd over there.

00:19:35.300 We really haven't heard the CIA pitch in, although Tulsi Gabbard is supposed to collect and collate all that as DNI, and you would assume the CIA's analysis will be in there.

00:19:47.460 So we will obviously stay on top of this as the morning progresses, and I would just tell you, I think there's a lot of activity going on.

00:19:57.160 We're here because of the stolen 2020 election.

00:19:59.560 You know that.

00:20:00.140 That's why you're President Trump's hardest core supporters.

00:20:02.860 You were with him in the breach.

00:20:04.660 There's an awful lot of people I notice right now saying how they're true MAGA and they're pure MAGA.

00:20:10.760 I don't think anybody at Fox can possibly be true MAGA and hardcore MAGA, and the reason is, to be brutally frank, when President Trump had the election stolen from him and had the White House taken away and he went back to Mar-a-Lago for that year of 2021,

00:20:26.980 because everybody at Fox takes a paycheck from Murdoch, you all supported DeSantis and Nikki Haley and whoever else came along, right, as an opportunity to replace President Trump.

00:20:38.500 So if you work at Fox, by definition, you can't be true MAGA.

00:20:42.720 It's impossible.

00:20:44.220 We were here, remember, this audience, there was a couple of very lonely days, weeks and months before President Trump, I think, took the CPAC in Orlando and went back and gave that amazing speech

00:20:55.840 that he was coming back and had thought it through in a month and a half, and we knew he would always come back, but you had his back in the darkest days because you believe in President Trump.

00:21:06.980 One of the most important things that's happening and one of the things I'm concerned that doesn't get the attention right now is President Trump has really come out and doubled and tripled down on the ICE removals of mass deportations.

00:21:19.300 This is in the middle of a firestorm against him on that.

00:21:24.540 President Trump is hanging beyond tough.

00:21:26.980 In fact, I think it's the Washington Post Day has a huge article how there's been a reversal already.

00:21:31.720 Stephen Miller and the team over there have reversed this policy of the, I think, coming from the Agriculture Department,

00:21:38.660 that we're not going to be any ICE raids in agriculture and hotels and restaurants, all that.

00:21:43.220 That's not the case at all.

00:21:45.360 In fact, President Trump, in a series of true socials, number one, said the other day 20 million illegal alien evaders that are going to be mass deported, deported, number one.

00:21:55.140 He also said the ICE raids, particularly in sanctuary cities, and he means L.A., Chicago, New York, all these sanctuary cities,

00:22:02.600 these inner cities run by these radical Democrats, they're going to triple down on ICE raids, triple down on ICE raids, going, you know, going to ratchet it up,

00:22:11.680 not going to back off, going to ratchet it up, and then last night, this reversal of this ag policy that DHS had for, I think, less than 24 hours.

00:22:21.460 Obviously, when President Trump got to focus on it with somebody because he's got the way of the world on his shoulders right now, reversed that.

00:22:26.460 So very, very, very, very important.

00:22:28.720 Mike Lindell, so the mainstream media tells me you lost the defamation case yesterday and you owe a guy two and a half million bucks,

00:22:37.820 although my pillow was excluded from that judgment and therefore, you know, the company still exists.

00:22:45.120 What's the reality?

00:22:46.260 Because I've seen your statements and your messages that it was actually a victory for you.

00:22:50.140 You don't have to pay anything.

00:22:51.220 You're going to appeal.

00:22:52.180 Just walk us through exactly what happened.

00:22:53.980 Well, first of all, everybody, we were up against a judge that said, right away, she said, you did commit defamation.

00:23:03.100 So she had, they had like 30 statements that were made, or more than that, I guess.

00:23:08.500 And each one, the jury had to decide, she had already ruled.

00:23:12.920 It was a very strange way to go into court.

00:23:17.620 You were already at, of course, it was Denver, and it was, we went at this very different kind of court that I'd never seen.

00:23:26.980 It was, you know, everything we brought forward was overruled, overruled, and overruled.

00:23:33.400 And so we were up against that.

00:23:35.340 But the biggest thing is, MyPillow was sued by three different companies, the machine companies and their affiliates.

00:23:45.060 And this is what I've been upset about for four years.

00:23:47.820 If you're going to sue a company that advertises somewhere and something's said or something's done, you're not going to have any advertising in our country.

00:23:55.460 Well, MyPillow came out victorious.

00:23:57.660 We were the first ones that went all the way to jury trial.

00:24:00.460 Now, everyone else, but back then, when they sued over 100 companies and businesses and, I mean, companies and people,

00:24:07.460 we're the only ones that took it all the way to jury trial, with your help, Warren Posse, and we won.

00:24:13.180 It was unanimous all the way, every single thing that they, when they brought up MyPill, 100% victory.

00:24:19.440 Now, the media's coming out and saying, well, you owe all this, Mike Lindell, you owe all this.

00:24:23.800 Well, that's what appeals are for, Steve.

00:24:25.980 And I was very happy to come out the way it was, the way it came out, because they've been wanting to destroy MyPillow since the beginning, since back in 21.

00:24:38.960 And what a way to do it than destroy MyPillow.

00:24:41.420 But hang on a second.

00:24:42.180 Appeals are only on points of law.

00:24:43.940 What specifically in points of law are your attorneys pointing to?

00:24:49.500 Because appeals almost never gets overturned at an appellate level.

00:24:54.480 Sometimes it does, where there's major breaches in the law.

00:24:58.340 Your attorney's telling you there's been a major breach in the law here?

00:25:02.240 Yeah, there's been, we have a laundry list of it, to be honest with you.

00:25:06.180 But also, they never, one of the things that's really important, they never proved any loss.

00:25:13.560 Any loss.

00:25:15.640 I mean, it was like they had to prove that there was, you know, $2 million in law somewhere that the plaintiff got.

00:25:26.840 And it came down to, Steve, too.

00:25:28.920 It was two statements of myself.

00:25:32.740 Two.

00:25:33.440 One of them was when they made a dirty deal with Newsmax, so I couldn't go on there more and talk about MyPillow.

00:25:38.380 And the other one was when I was served on the steps of the state capitol.

00:25:42.400 Well, after your company or anybody's company's attack like that, I shot back.

00:25:46.760 I'm not going to sit and take it and just, oh, okay, that's okay.

00:25:50.480 You go after my employee-owned company.

00:25:53.140 But we've got a lot.

00:25:54.380 Steve will have reports this week.

00:25:55.920 I know they're working hard on that.

00:25:57.820 They want to get something done here in the next seven days.

00:26:01.160 But one of the things is damages.

00:26:03.380 There was no damages shown.

00:26:04.980 They really focused on, you know, the 2020 election, overturning the 2020 election.

00:26:13.700 And there was so many things they didn't let in that I wanted to bring in, that my lawyers wanted to bring in.

00:26:19.560 It was block, block, block, block, block.

00:26:22.100 So I think that might be some of the things.

00:26:25.300 Because every time that happened, I'd go into kind of a panic.

00:26:27.720 And they're going, Mike, this is all, if they do this and it comes out right, this is all part of the appeal process.

00:26:34.220 So I think it's a great victory for my pill, for our country.

00:26:38.820 It's the first victory involving this 2020 election.

00:26:43.080 And I'm going to tell you, Steve, while I was there, you know, this all came out of Colorado media, where it's going all over the country that, you know, Mike Lindell lost and all this rubbish.

00:26:52.980 I feel very much that it was a great victory for us in our country.

00:26:57.740 And a week ago, our great president, they requested from Colorado, which is the tip of the spear right now, of all the stuff that happened in the 2020 election.

00:27:08.380 And he requested all the cast vote records and the data records from the 2020 election, 2022, and 2024.

00:27:15.940 Well, I'll tell you what, they're not going to have anything from 2020 and 2022.

00:27:20.820 Colorado deletes stuff and gets rid of stuff faster than they're printed.

00:27:25.740 So that came about.

00:27:27.540 So I was arguing with the Colorado media there.

00:27:30.300 I was there for almost a month.

00:27:32.060 It was a battle every day with them.

00:27:34.440 I seen protesters firsthand that were coming after me.

00:27:37.760 And, uh, Mike, hang on, hang on for a moment.

00:27:41.840 I want to hold you through here because I'm going to ask about these to the degree you can answer these other cases that you've got coming.

00:27:46.920 I think from the machine companies themselves, Mike Lindell, um, claiming victory in Colorado is going to appeal whatever turned against him.

00:27:55.660 But I guess, uh, my pillow came out free and clear.

00:28:00.220 So he lives to fight another day.

00:28:03.040 We're going to take a short commercial break.

00:28:04.740 I think, uh, world and turbulence could get more turbulent this afternoon.

00:28:09.120 I think we just got a posting on the, uh, is that just happened on the White House?

00:28:12.560 Did this just happen?

00:28:13.400 Just get posted.

00:28:14.780 Trump has always been clear.

00:28:16.000 Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.

00:28:17.940 Certainly, Mr. President fully understand it.

00:28:20.800 We're going to get into that.

00:28:21.700 He just posted, I think at the whitehouse.com short commercial break back in a moment.

00:28:27.340 There's something happening with our farmland here in the United States that isn't getting enough attention.

00:28:32.300 The Chinese have been buying up hundreds of thousands of acres of U.S. farmland. 0.99

00:28:38.240 They're also taking control over critical supply chains.

00:28:41.380 Things like fertilizer, animal feed, and farming equipment.

00:28:44.940 Why?

00:28:45.720 It's not clear.

00:28:47.460 They're tightening their grip on global food production.

00:28:50.960 That is clear.

00:28:52.680 And if things go south and it could happen quickly, we need to be ready.

00:28:57.440 That's why I trust MyPatriotSupply.

00:30:09.620 Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann.

00:30:14.660 Okay.

00:30:16.360 Charlie Gasparino, who you know gets a lot of scoops.

00:30:18.980 Let me just put this up.

00:30:21.080 Breaking top Wall Street market watchers, i.e. CEOs, economists, and the government affairs officials,

00:30:26.960 are closely reading the tea leaves on the possibility of Trump greenlining the bunker busters on Iran

00:30:31.840 for its obvious market implications.

00:30:34.200 And sources tell me, they read from the at White House, this is the, what we just said

00:30:39.960 has been put up.

00:30:40.740 It came up a little earlier this morning, but it's a whole litany of President Trump's over

00:30:44.840 and over again telling the Iranians they cannot have a nuclear weapon.

00:30:48.040 They read from the at White House.

00:30:49.400 They say is that no decision has been made, but Trump is warming up to the idea if Iran

00:30:54.600 doesn't engage in talks soon to end its nuclear program.

00:30:57.140 This comes amid intense opposition from some quarters of the mega coalition to any U.S.

00:31:00.960 involvement.

00:31:01.860 The obvious short-term market implication is on oil, U.S. stocks, dollar.

00:31:06.040 Story developing.

00:31:07.800 We've always been a huge supporter of President Trump.

00:31:10.680 And Iran cannot have, the Persians can have a nuclear weapon, no doubt about that. 1.00

00:31:14.900 His, I thought, strategy of hammering them and negotiating with them, and we still had not

00:31:20.480 gone up the escalatory ladder on economic warfare, which brought them to the knees.

00:31:24.480 Remember, when the regime over there had a problem, I think in 22, it was because of

00:31:30.220 the sanctions President Trump had put in.

00:31:33.040 And those weren't anywhere near the sanctions that could be put in today, really economic

00:31:36.960 warfare.

00:31:38.120 Remember the regime, not that it got overthrown, but for the first time in the streets, you

00:31:42.820 saw a real uprising of people, and you saw the, which is the way that regimes, I believe,

00:31:48.120 have to be overthrown by the people. 0.73

00:31:50.800 If you can exacerbate that by economic warfare, just, you know, making sure they don't have

00:31:55.060 access to capital markets and don't have access to commerce, as is your want, because you've

00:32:01.120 got to, you know, it comes through things that you control, then therefore you can do it.

00:32:06.220 This is what the sanctions program has been in the economic warfare.

00:32:08.960 I'm still very upset that, I don't know, they state a million and a half or 1.6 million barrels.

00:32:14.480 I think it's closer to two and a half.

00:32:15.840 People say it's maybe three when they do the black market.

00:32:18.520 They're basically giving, I believe, the Chinese Communist Party 22% of their total energy

00:32:24.520 intake.

00:32:25.740 And to me, that's always been unacceptable.

00:32:27.420 I don't know why we haven't cut that off.

00:32:29.340 You've got three carrier battle groups.

00:32:30.880 They have two carrier battle groups in the Nimitz steaming from the Pacific through the

00:32:36.200 Straits of Malacca to head across the Indian Ocean to get to the North Arabian Sea.

00:32:40.460 It seems to me it wouldn't be that big a difficulty to block it.

00:32:43.420 And President Trump, I do believe, has given the Iranians, hey, you've got a shot here 0.99

00:32:48.100 to make a deal.

00:32:49.840 It's not, it's not, he's not looking for a ceasefire.

00:32:52.480 He's not looking for a peace deal.

00:32:53.680 He's looking for your eradication, total capacity of your nuclear weapons.

00:32:58.100 And I think if they take it and jump on it and meet with Witkoff and try to figure something

00:33:03.120 out quickly, basically sign a document that he gives them, maybe with very little changes,

00:33:08.380 there's a possibility he won't engage in combat operations.

00:33:12.440 But people have to understand that is being considered.

00:33:15.920 So just take that and take it on board today and begin to think about it.

00:33:21.340 I'd like to hear more response on this.

00:33:23.000 BB, it's not about America first, about America dead.

00:33:26.380 Your response to that, because that was addressed to you, okay?

00:33:31.080 As much of the propaganda that comes out of Fox, it is propaganda.

00:33:34.460 Um, so, uh, BB was hitting you right between the eyes with a little, um, love tap.

00:33:41.780 So answer back.

00:33:43.900 Mike Lindell, is this going to have any, isn't the bigger issue here is not the defamation

00:33:48.220 suit, uh, by this individual, but really the bigger suits that, that Fox and others settled.

00:33:54.400 I think Newsmax settled.

00:33:56.140 Are you still entangled?

00:33:57.260 Are you still entangled on that?

00:33:58.700 Or are they, or have they eased up?

00:34:00.500 And what are your lawyers telling you about what happened in Colorado towards that, uh,

00:34:06.600 towards those, those cases, sir?

00:34:09.140 Well, interesting you bring that up, Steve, because the lawyers for, uh, at least two of

00:34:14.500 the machine companies were there.

00:34:16.280 And the one of them is, why are you here?

00:34:19.560 Um, well, you know, they're watching everything close and because that breakthrough that my bill

00:34:24.660 had that we broke that wall down.

00:34:27.020 Um, and, uh, and, and then you combine that with what our great president's doing and with

00:34:32.400 his, um, executive order, Tulsi Gabbard coming out with all this stuff now that's going to

00:34:37.260 be found in the 2020 election.

00:34:39.020 This stuff's all going to get exposed, Steve.

00:34:40.940 As you know, um, I'm never going to stop.

00:34:43.980 The media was there.

00:34:44.920 Now, Mike, are you, uh, you know, you've been here for a month.

00:34:48.020 Are you going to stop now?

00:34:49.140 You know, you're just relentless.

00:34:50.740 And I said, absolutely not.

00:34:51.960 We have to secure our election and save our country.

00:34:54.880 So our great presidents, I promised him, I said, we can't let, uh, four years, these

00:35:00.000 great, these next four years be in vain.

00:35:02.420 We've got to secure our elections now.

00:35:04.580 And they, uh, but those, that machine companies sat right in that courtroom the whole time.

00:35:08.880 And that is the bigger picture, everybody.

00:35:11.160 And remember, they also sued my pillow for using promo codes.

00:35:15.600 This is my business model.

00:35:17.100 They went after my pillow, an employee owned company.

00:35:20.240 And, you know, just to suppress their voice.

00:35:22.720 That's what lawfare is all about, everybody.

00:35:24.980 This came up in the courtroom where, um, I believe it was Alan Dershowitz that said it

00:35:29.300 back in January of 21.

00:35:31.120 Lawfare had not been used this widespread since the 1700s.

00:35:35.620 I mean, they sued over a hundred people and platforms and, uh, sent threatening letters

00:35:40.640 out to over 150 people.

00:35:42.680 And it's all about suppressing our voice.

00:35:45.100 There were very few places that I could go and talk about our, uh, securing our elections.

00:35:50.300 And that, and Steve, it was your show, but most of the, you know, they, uh, most of the

00:35:54.420 time back in 21, when we were all by ourselves and going, hey, there's problems, there's problems.

00:36:00.840 And I, I really think we broke that.

00:36:03.400 When I went in there with prayers and put everything we had into the, uh, into this fight, uh, out

00:36:09.340 in Colorado, my prayer was that my pillow, we had to have one breakthrough and my pillow

00:36:14.460 was it.

00:36:14.980 And I think that's going to now, um, like I say, when did, when did Fox, when, when did

00:36:21.080 Fox stop allowing you, they stopped booking you as a guest because you were all over Fox

00:36:25.860 as, as an advertiser.

00:36:27.440 When did they stop booking you as a guest?

00:36:30.140 They, they did it actually when, uh, um, smartmatic sued Fox news on February 4th of 2021.

00:36:37.680 But Newsmax was the key to this case.

00:36:40.420 What they did is they stopped having me on a guest, even to talk about my pillow.

00:36:45.580 And that was in April and early May of 21.

00:36:49.840 That's when this guy that worked for this company here, this Coomer, when they made this

00:36:54.400 deal with, uh, Newsmax, I was never able to go on and talk about my pillow, giving money

00:36:59.900 to the hurricane victims or the flood victims, or, uh, you know, we tied 10% of all our money

00:37:05.100 at my pillow that's written in our bylaws and to not be in hiring veterans and hiring

00:37:10.280 people, me being an ex ag addict, hiring ex addicts that, uh, giving them second chances.

00:37:15.260 I could never go on Newsmax anymore to talk about those things.

00:37:19.840 And since that time that got brought up in court, it cost my pillow over $20 million over

00:37:24.560 four years.

00:37:25.340 Uh, and because they wanted to suppress my voice.

00:37:29.020 So to me, they came at me from every angle known to man, they canceled all the box stores

00:37:33.660 on my pillow, the shopping channels, they came out at every angle.

00:37:37.400 Let's just destroy my Glendale and it, and, uh, and my pillow.

00:37:41.320 And they almost succeeded, but we won.

00:37:43.780 We, we broke through and, uh, that's right.

00:37:48.180 Well, we got your back.

00:37:49.620 Um, by the way, that's what I'm saying.

00:37:51.540 Anybody says they're pure MAGA and true MAGA been there from the beginning.

00:37:54.520 Anybody took a paycheck from Fox during that time.

00:37:57.420 It just, uh, it's obvious because they, they, they, they turned on everybody that supported

00:38:02.480 president Trump on the big steel, which is essential.

00:38:05.640 What did president Trump say?

00:38:06.680 The reason he came back and ran, he said, this is a Charlie Kirk's turning point conference

00:38:12.640 in Phoenix in, uh, December of, of last year.

00:38:17.720 He came in and he said what president Trump said is the reason he's still on the stage said

00:38:21.900 the reason that I, uh, ran is because I knew they had stolen the election and I had to

00:38:27.600 make things right.

00:38:29.220 And this is why we got to get to the bottom of the formal investigation of this.

00:38:32.220 You're not going to, you're not going to do this until you adjudicate this.

00:38:34.440 Mike, uh, we're burning daylight here.

00:40:42.840 Thank you, brother.

00:40:43.780 Look for you this afternoon.

00:40:44.780 Glad you're back from Denver.

00:40:48.260 Um, there's so much good going on.

00:40:50.840 You know, Miranda Devine on her new, uh, podcast of the great Miranda Devine has, um, interviewed our own Scott Besson, currently the secretary of the treasury.

00:41:01.980 Um, in an exclusive interview, we're going to play it.

00:41:04.520 When I talk about so many good things are going on, they're being distracted by this, by this war and understand war and peace.

00:41:10.040 And as I said, from the beginning, we looked at the three verticals.

00:41:13.560 The one that he's going to focus on first and has to get done is to lay down, everybody lay down their guns on this kinetic part of the third world war, which we're in.

00:41:22.380 And President Trump has tried to move heaven and earth on this thing.

00:41:26.400 Um, and now that war's expanded, it's just, you got to call it, you know, you got to call it like you say it has expanded.

00:41:32.740 President Trump's trying to shut that down.

00:41:35.120 Uh, White House is coming out and reiterating President Trump has always said they can't have a nuclear weapon.

00:41:39.200 I think that's pretty consistent with everybody, President Trump's method of doing that, which is going to be a combination of diplomacy, but not really diplomacy, negotiation using leverage, that leverage being economic warfare.

00:41:52.080 And if it had to be, you know, eventually kinetic after he ran out of every other option, he was adamant, though, that he can't, he can't have a nuclear weapon.

00:42:00.240 That's, that's pretty stated, but, uh, there's so much good stuff going on.

00:42:04.560 Number one is that there's an exclusive.

00:42:06.500 We're going to get to it in a second after the break.

00:42:09.340 Blue collar wage growth under Trump sees largest increase in nearly 60 years.

00:42:14.940 Scott Besson lays that out to the New York Post today and to Miranda Devine.

00:42:18.360 Also, on the major front of this war, because remember the three things is one is get our sovereignty back, seal the border, which he's done.

00:42:25.620 He hasn't, hasn't, we haven't gotten the, the, the hard material ceiling of it, but he's done it with, uh, with troops and with, uh, refocus of executive orders by, uh, customs and border.

00:42:36.660 But the mass deportations of folks and people that are here, the illegal alien invaders that were brought here and invited here by the Biden, the illegitimate Biden regime, because it all goes back to the stolen election of 2020.

00:42:50.300 And on that, with a little, you know, kind of, Oh my gosh, can we do this?

00:42:55.580 President Trump reiterated what's been happening in LA.

00:42:59.620 And I totally agree with Stephen Miller.

00:43:02.040 You can argue the future of the country is going to be determined by what's happening in the streets of Los Angeles.

00:43:06.540 As we go through more mass deportation, not simply the criminals and not simply the insane asylums, the bad hombres, but the mass deportations of people that are here and not citizens. 0.95

00:43:18.100 You know, morning Joe, this morning on MSNBC, last night, CNN, they're sitting there going, Oh, this is, you know, terrible.

00:43:24.240 The economy is going to go down.

00:43:25.900 You either have a country you don't.

00:43:27.860 And president Trump is hanging in there and this reversal of the agriculture department, trying to insert itself about the mass deportations of agricultural workers and hot hotel workers and restaurant workers.

00:43:38.940 Well, as you see in that town in Nebraska, when they've put out the help wanted, it looks like it's being flooded with American citizens.

00:43:46.780 As Steve Cortez said, many of whom speak Spanish, right?

00:43:51.800 They're Hispanics.

00:43:53.040 His polling yesterday is still blowing.

00:43:55.220 It's still about mass deportations, not about immigration, but mass deportations.

00:43:59.480 And the support of the American people is simply overwhelming.

00:44:03.740 Short break.

00:44:04.380 Back in a moment.

00:45:27.400 Good news, haven't you, about blue-collar wage growth?

00:45:30.540 Blue-collar wage growth.

00:45:32.440 The only other time it's been this high, wait for it, was during President Trump's first term.

00:45:37.820 Uh-huh, right.

00:45:38.280 So we've seen real wages for hourly workers, non-supervisory workers, rise almost 2% in the first five months.

00:45:48.240 Why is that?

00:45:48.760 No president has done that before.

00:45:51.740 And why is that?

00:45:52.640 It's the president's emphasis on manufacturing.

00:45:56.240 I think there's also likely a component of whether it's 12 or 20 million illegal aliens coming out of the workforce.

00:46:07.420 And Joe Biden opened the border, and it was flooded, and that for working Americans, that's a disaster because it's pressure on their wages.

00:46:20.640 Wow.

00:46:23.040 Well, 2% wage increase.

00:46:25.200 Remember, 2019 for the year, I think the wages, the differential was huge between blue-collar and white-collar, right, between non-college graduate and college graduate.

00:46:35.460 That was the time that the working class really got a break. 0.99

00:46:39.000 And now you see, and part of this, we've even just started the investments here from the companies to bring manufacturing jobs back.

00:46:48.680 Is it perfect?

00:46:49.800 No, it's not perfect.

00:46:50.840 It ain't going to be perfect because this is called the world that we live in.

00:46:55.360 And what I mean by that, the concentration of power that took those plants overseas and took those jobs overseas was a combination of Wall Street, of capital, not just Wall Street, but capital markets in the city of London, throughout Europe, also Asia, to drive the, to make an opportunity for the Chinese Communist Party to basically say,

00:47:18.520 hey, we actually have living slaves, right, that will work for nothing, and we can just trash our environment because we're in control here, and you can make a ton of money, just bring your factories over, and that's what happened.

00:47:31.280 People know this.

00:47:33.140 Bringing those back is a process, but both bringing those back and to start what President Trump is doing, in addition, sealing the border, in addition, starting the deportations.

00:47:43.680 Folks should know, on the good news on the major front of getting our sovereignty back, it's being reported that 1 million, and as Scott said, between the 12 million and the 20, look, I'm only focused right now on what came on in Biden's regime.

00:47:58.540 Let's get those, that was the invasion.

00:48:00.740 Let's get that out of here, right?

00:48:02.740 Let's get those folks out of here, and we can deal with the rest. 0.98

00:48:04.820 The rest could be up to 40 or 50 million, but we've got to do this one bite at a time and be focused, focused, focused.

00:48:11.720 But look at the good things that are happening.

00:48:15.020 Wages are starting to rise for blue-collar workers.

00:48:17.160 That's the central part of this new coalition we've put together.

00:48:20.240 The old Republican Party was country club Republicans and Wall Street and all that crowd, right?

00:48:26.100 They can't win national elections.

00:48:27.520 You have to put together a new coalition.

00:48:30.200 We've put that coalition together.

00:48:32.060 That's why President Trump, we're in the 10th anniversary week.

00:48:37.120 Aren't you still feeling the buzz?

00:48:38.540 I really want to thank Eric for coming on yesterday.

00:48:40.800 It was great.

00:48:41.720 To have him there and talk about what it was like before they came down the escalator.

00:48:46.460 It's one of the biggest risks.

00:48:48.700 I think it's the biggest risk personally any businessman has ever taken to actually get into the cauldron, particularly with his personal other businessmen to run.

00:48:56.320 But, I mean, somebody that brought the media stature of Trump and already the controversy of President Trump, even the time as a media figure.

00:49:05.780 He was beloved, but, you know, Trump was Trump.

00:49:08.060 Even then, the apprentice, things he had done in the casinos, things he had done in the media landscape in New York.

00:49:14.300 He was a major personality.

00:49:15.620 In the 80s and 90s, he dominated kind of the, not just the social scene, but the media sphere in New York City.

00:49:25.780 So he came as a large personality.

00:49:27.780 He came with huge name recognition.

00:49:30.120 Remember, even with that name recognition, he was on the top of the escalator in 7th, coming down after the speech to the American people, which he talked about.

00:49:38.640 Guess what?

00:49:39.820 Bringing jobs back from China and, most importantly, sealing our border and stopping the invasion. 0.99

00:49:44.940 That's the centerpiece of our movement, and we can't only get those done if we're not dragged into forever wars.

00:49:53.520 We understand what the apparatus wants to do.

00:49:56.400 We understand their gravitational pull is always that.

00:50:00.800 That's always and everywhere.

00:50:03.340 That's why you still have a war that hasn't been concluded in Korea.

00:50:08.140 Remember, what, a 70-year armistice on that now?

00:50:12.160 They have an armistice, just kind of a stand-down.

00:50:15.300 In Vietnam, all the valor, by the way, the valor in Korea, unbelievable.

00:50:19.540 You read those stories.

00:50:20.420 The valor in Vietnam, incredible.

00:50:23.620 If you saw the parade the other day, one of the most moving things I thought was when the Hueys came across.

00:50:28.980 Everything those workhorses had done in Vietnam and the memories that brings back and floods people with the memories. 0.96

00:50:35.300 Then you look at the first Gulf War.

00:50:37.100 You've got the global war on terror, Iraq and Afghanistan, all of it.

00:50:42.500 All of them kind of up in the air, not really brought to a conclusion.

00:50:49.260 This is where President Trump, his aim in Persia was they cannot have nuclear weapons.

00:50:54.920 Full stop.

00:50:55.540 Prepared to negotiate with them to do that.

00:50:59.040 But at the end of the day, if you're going to get there and they're going to laugh in your face and spit in your face and not do it,

00:51:04.320 President Trump will use every tool in the toolbox.

00:51:07.940 So that's where we are on this Friday.

00:51:09.360 But to get back to the heart of it, the heart of it, you see the economics start to kick in.

00:51:17.140 Big, beautiful bill is being is being laid out.

00:51:20.320 There's some issues with that.

00:51:21.580 The Senate side, Senator Josh Hawley, who's kind of our one fire breathing populist in the Senate, is going to be here with that and other things.

00:51:30.320 John Solomon, I was going to try to get Solomon up in the beginning, kind of tee up Mike Lindell, because he's got a story that will not amaze you.

00:51:38.920 It will amaze you about why it's only coming out now, because I know you believed it in your heart of hearts.

00:51:44.040 And that is the Chinese Communist Party was engaged and involved in efforts to steal the 2020 election.

00:51:52.700 Why was that?

00:51:53.320 Because they knew they had a new sheriff in town.

00:51:56.120 President Trump, with Lighthizer and Navarro, negotiated for two years, really from the spring, early summer of 2017 into 2019, May of 2019.

00:52:05.560 And in 2019, with a full deal negotiated for two years that would take care of all the seven original sins.

00:52:11.840 We said the Chinese Communist Party economically would fold them into a global economy. 0.98

00:52:15.860 They ripped it up, spit and frozen Trump's face and said no deal.

00:52:19.820 Well, shortly thereafter, some sort of flu hit in the military games around in Wuhan, the city of Wuhan.

00:52:28.420 That was in August and September of 2019.

00:52:32.380 Then in 2020, the pandemic fully blew up around the globe.

00:52:37.720 Their effort was always to remove Trump from office, the Chinese Communist Party.

00:52:41.960 And John Solomon is bringing the receipts, courtesy of Kash Patel at the FBI, which I think released this last night.

00:52:50.300 Okay, short commercial break.

00:52:51.200 Take your phone out right now.

00:52:52.480 Is it turbulent enough for you, folks?

00:52:54.220 You ain't seen nothing.

00:52:55.100 This is going to get so much more turbulent.

00:52:57.400 It just is.

00:52:58.100 You're in a fourth turning.

00:52:59.400 As the Chinese say, you live in interesting times.

00:53:02.400 That is an actual curse in China. 0.99

00:53:04.380 But it kind of is what it is.

00:53:07.420 Take your phone out.

00:53:08.380 Text Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N, at 989898.

00:53:11.640 Get the ultimate guide to investing in gold and precious metals in the age of Trump from Philip Patrick and the team.

00:53:20.040 Philip will be with me this afternoon.

00:53:22.020 We're going to go through this financial time.
