00:00:01.000 Once the enemy positions are pinpointed, the unit maneuvers to concentrate its fire and saturate the area.
00:00:10.000 After inflicting all damage possible on the red positions, the patrol will pull back within its own lines.
00:00:30.000 Fire in the air...
00:01:00.000 In Korea, United Nations troops push on in the cautious advance against the Communists.
00:01:13.000 An advance whose purpose, General Ridgway states, is not to seize ground but to wipe out the enemy.
00:01:19.000 The Chinese Red Army, fighting desperately in small isolated stands,
00:01:24.000 prefers to give ground on wider fronts rather than join battle.
00:01:28.000 And it's up to the infantry to clear out the pockets of die-hard Communists.
00:01:35.000 With the enemy falling back to the Han River,
00:01:38.000 United Nations commanders had expected that the Reds would make their stand there.
00:01:43.000 But under a steady withering barrage, GIs are able to cross the river and establish a beachhead.
00:01:49.000 Within two hours, a pontoon bridge spans the Han,
00:01:52.000 and United Nations troops and equipment pour across toward the capital city of Seoul.
00:01:57.000 Moments later, Chinese Communists, prisoners, are being marched to the rear.
00:02:12.000 Seoul, too, falls into United Nations' hands, this time not as a prime military target,
00:02:19.000 but as the result of the clean United Nations sweep up the Korean Peninsula.
00:02:24.000 The once proud capital of the Korean Republic is a mass of ruins whose able-bodied men have been carried off to forced service in North Korea. 0.77
00:02:33.000 Children and the aged are left to see the liberation of their city.
00:02:40.000 Above Seoul, Mud and the Marines take over. 0.92
00:02:48.000 For once, the Marines almost meet their match as spring thaws slow down the United Nations' push.
00:02:54.000 The Marines came back into action only recently from the Hongnam B-10.
00:02:59.000 Despite obstacles, United Nations' forces drive on to the 38th parallel border of North Korea.
00:03:09.000 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
00:03:14.000 Pray for our enemies.
00:03:16.000 Because we're going medieval on these people.
00:03:18.000 Here's the reason I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
00:03:23.000 The people have had a belly full of it.
00:03:25.000 I know you don't like hearing that.
00:03:26.000 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
00:03:29.000 It's going to happen.
00:03:30.000 And where do people like that go to share the big line?
00:03:34.000 MAGA Media.
00:03:35.000 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:03:40.000 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:03:44.000 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:03:51.000 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:04:00.000 It's Wednesday, 25 June, in the year of the Lord, 2025.
00:04:04.000 75 years ago today, the beginning of the Korean War.
00:04:08.000 Of course, at the time it was called a...
00:04:11.000 You know, the legislation they passed was being a police effort, a police action.
00:04:16.000 Incredibly bloody. War's still not ended.
00:04:19.000 They kind of have a ceasefire.
00:04:22.000 Just like President Trump got the other day between the Persians and the Israelis.
00:04:30.000 A ceasefire.
00:04:31.000 President Trump today at NATO.
00:04:35.000 And this is why it was so important.
00:04:37.000 He finally had NATO.
00:04:38.000 He finally got NATO to step up to the plate for a meaningful defense.
00:04:43.000 5% of GDP.
00:04:45.000 Folks, I don't think it's easy to comprehend what a massive victory that is for President Trump.
00:04:51.000 These were people at the beginning, they couldn't even get to 2%.
00:04:55.000 They committed to 2% when they overthrew the democratically elected,
00:05:00.000 although Putin aligned, government in Ukraine in a color revolution driven by the United States State Department.
00:05:07.000 Remember Victoria Nuland?
00:05:09.000 A couple, three of those other war criminals?
00:05:11.000 Well, NATO said they had to go to 2% of the time.
00:05:14.000 Never matched it.
00:05:15.000 Never made it.
00:05:16.000 And if you actually looked at what they were spending, it was on climate change and women's health care and just everything but combat arms.
00:05:23.000 Everything about anything but interoperability maneuvers had to actually work as an alliance.
00:05:31.000 Right?
00:05:32.000 Work as an alliance.
00:05:34.000 So NATO's was kind of in shambles.
00:05:37.000 President Trump, and it was quite endearing today.
00:05:40.000 He was really very paternal.
00:05:43.000 We're honored to have Senator Eric Schmidt from the great state of Missouri.
00:05:48.000 Senator, thank you very much.
00:05:49.000 I was just talking.
00:05:50.000 We did a preamble to the show a cold open.
00:05:52.000 I know you couldn't see it, but it was about the Korean War.
00:05:55.000 We couldn't play it this morning because we covered for the first hour President Trump's remarks and his amazing press conference.
00:06:02.000 I know you've got a lot of thoughts on this, on burden sharing and being an ally.
00:06:06.000 What do you take away from President Trump's trip to the Netherlands for the two-day summit, sir?
00:06:12.000 Well, Steve, it's great to be with you, by the way.
00:06:15.000 I think it's pretty remarkable that, you know, I consider myself a realist, right?
00:06:20.000 And I think you view the world similarly.
00:06:22.000 And it's really kind of coming of age now.
00:06:24.000 We're moving away from this sort of neoliberal, this neoconservative, this kind of Wilsonian view of the world where so many of the foreign policy blob in this town and permanent Washington think we could be everywhere all at once all the time.
00:06:36.000 And that's not true.
00:06:37.000 Like, if you believe in scarcity, we have to make decisions.
00:06:39.000 What are the core interests of the United States of America?
00:06:42.000 Clearly, the 21st century is going to be defined by who wins this great competition, us or China.
00:06:47.000 So Europe has to step up in a much more meaningful way.
00:06:50.000 So President Trump having that conversation with European leaders in, you know, 2017 and 2018, very different than the reception he got today, which I think is telling and why the election was so important in 2024.
00:07:01.000 It cements the status.
00:07:03.000 He's a real leader.
00:07:04.000 And I think I actually went to Munich, the security conference I had never been.
00:07:08.000 And I went this February, J.D. Vance was over there, too, and, of course, delivered that really important speech about free speech.
00:07:14.000 And I went over there to tell him not what these Europeans wanted to hear, but the truth, which is you need to step up. 0.51
00:07:20.000 Like, this dynamic that existed after World War II where we kind of had an umbrella of security, we had these ridiculous trade deals, all of that was to make sure that they could, you know, stave off Soviet communism. 0.72
00:07:31.000 Well, after the Cold War, we never really adjusted.
00:07:33.000 And now is the time for that kind of adjustment from a foreign policy perspective.
00:07:37.000 So the globalists had their time.
00:07:39.000 And then also on the trade side, which is why, you know, it's so important what President Trump's trying to do to rebalance the equation on trade, too.
00:07:46.000 So I'm just really optimistic.
00:07:48.000 Now, the proof will be in the pudding, Steve, as you know, they've made sort of these great flowery speeches before.
00:07:54.000 Their 5% number, it can't be for pensions.
00:07:57.000 Like, pensions and percentage of GDP don't win wars.
00:08:00.000 Munitions do.
00:08:01.000 Bullets do.
00:08:02.000 And the problem, of course, Europe has is they have an atrophied, you know, defense industry and the deindustrialization that even Germany now is experiencing.
00:08:10.000 They got a lot of problems.
00:08:11.000 But at least this is positive momentum, and it's really all because of President Trump.
00:08:15.000 You know, they're hectoring President Trump about the different intelligence reports.
00:08:20.000 And, of course, he says, hey, look, it's total obliteration, and we did our job.
00:08:25.000 The 12-day war is over.
00:08:26.000 I'm getting back on a plane.
00:08:27.000 I've got other problems.
00:08:28.000 I'm trying to deal with the Ukraine situation.
00:08:30.000 What are your thoughts on the 12-day war and where we stand right now?
00:08:33.000 He said, hey, look, the Iranians may come in next week. 1.00
00:08:35.000 I may meet with the Persians.
00:08:36.000 I don't know if I'm going to sign anything.
00:08:38.000 What's your sense?
00:08:39.000 And what's the folks in Missouri's sense of all this?
00:08:42.000 Well, I tell you, you know, we were in this kind of Ukraine debate, what, a year and a half ago, like more money for Ukraine.
00:08:49.000 And I would say on the Senate floor, speaking out against the additional money was there's literally been no person in Missouri who's ever come up to me and said, you know what, Eric, we want you to go fight for another 60 or $80 billion for Ukraine.
00:09:00.000 They just never came up, ironically, securing their border while we had a wide open southern border.
00:09:05.000 So now, you know, I think that, again, this sort of realism view is kind of taking hold.
00:09:10.000 And I think what President Trump, the most important thing, Steve, that happened, I think, in the last week, and I talked to President Trump to thank him because I was talking to him.
00:09:18.000 I didn't want to get us dragged into some long protracted conflict in the Middle East.
00:09:22.000 The American people don't want that.
00:09:23.000 Missourians don't want that. 1.00
00:09:24.000 Now, a targeted, overwhelming Jacksonian sort of show force on a key strategic core national interest of the United States, that's one thing. 0.86
00:09:33.000 But I think his ability and the restraint that he showed in pivoting to peace and a ceasefire was really important because, trust me, there were plenty of people in this town who were wanting him to be, you know, more engaged and have more involvement and pull us in.
00:09:48.000 And I think if we've learned anything from the last 30 years, which I hope we have, is that that's just not our role.
00:09:53.300 We can't be the cop on the beat around the world.
00:09:55.780 We've got a lot of problems here that we need to address.
00:09:57.840 We still need to be, you know, sort of a dominant military, but overwhelming force only when it's in our interest and we're not going to have, we're not going to be, you know, nation builders around the world with this kind of wandering foreign policy that's dominated the last 30 years.
00:10:12.660 By the way, our audience remembers because we played your, we played your speech in its entirety from the floor.
00:10:18.780 And I think it's one of the big reasons, you know, Mitch McConnell's not majority leader, I think was your speech and a couple others that really, you stuck the landing.
00:10:25.100 By the way, Missouri had a pretty big part in this, right?
00:10:28.000 The B-2s that came out of Missouri? 0.95
00:10:30.360 Yeah, that's right.
00:10:30.920 The B-2s are Whiteman Air Force Base.
00:10:32.660 And, you know, it's just kind of incredible.
00:10:34.340 I've been there.
00:10:35.800 It's an incredibly secure facility.
00:10:37.320 Like, literally, if you cross a couple double yellow lines, they'll shoot you on sight.
00:10:40.520 Like, it's like, you know, importantly so, right, because those B-2s are all there. 1.00
00:10:46.180 But to, you know, the deception, you know, having a couple go to Guam, meanwhile, the others were flying eastward.
00:10:51.720 But to be in that cockpit for 30 straight hours, you know, no real signal intelligence, and to drop bunker-busting bombs on something the size of a wheelbarrow is pretty remarkable and very effective.
00:11:03.700 And they effectively obliterated Iran's nuclear weapon ambition.
00:11:07.660 So, yeah, kudos to the men and women who were part of that, white men. 0.77
00:11:12.440 And I talked to the president.
00:11:13.540 I know we want to try to get them to the White House at some point.
00:11:16.800 But, yeah, Missouri played a key role.
00:11:17.920 Senator, before you became – before you came to the U.S. Senate, you were one of the toughest attorney generals in the country.
00:11:25.280 What is your sense – because I know the president talks to you a lot about this.
00:11:28.040 What is your sense of these judges and you're seeing these – we've got the deportations and they get orders from the Supreme Court.
00:11:35.400 People are not getting out.
00:11:36.440 I mean, they talk about the rule of law.
00:11:39.340 I've never seen anything like this.
00:11:40.580 Is part of the judiciary an act of revolt against not just the rule of law but also Article II of the Constitution, sir?
00:11:48.900 Yeah, I think so.
00:11:49.920 And you saw, I think, the most glaring example yet.
00:11:52.080 It's interesting.
00:11:53.160 Actually, my Solicitor General, John Sauer, became the Solicitor General of the United States.
00:11:57.500 And then the first four district court judges out of the gate were in my AG's office.
00:12:01.080 So we're really proud of what the imprint Missouri's had on kind of fighting for the rule of law.
00:12:06.960 We pushed back against the vaccine mandates and won.
00:12:09.060 We had the Missouri versus Biden.
00:12:10.920 Of course, the censorship case, we brought that.
00:12:12.960 We had the student loan debt forgiveness case we won at the Supreme Court.
00:12:15.500 So really proud of that.
00:12:16.600 We want to hold that.
00:12:17.860 And what you see now is this judge in Massachusetts just yesterday defying the Supreme Court order.
00:12:24.300 I mean, these are rapists and murderers.
00:12:26.860 And I think that's sort of the next frontier.
00:12:28.680 This is outside the bounds of any reasonable discussion, right?
00:12:32.760 But I think here, my take on it, Steve, ultimately is, as you saw with that decision from the Supreme Court and others,
00:12:38.820 these leftist district court judges, these real activist judges, they kind of have their 50, like Boasberg, right?
00:12:44.980 They have their 15 minutes of fame.
00:12:46.780 But as they make their way up the court system and ultimately the Supreme Court,
00:12:49.880 I think President Trump is by and large going to be successful with his agenda.
00:12:52.580 Because, of course, the president, who's the only person elected by the entire country,
00:12:57.600 the head, basically, of the Article II branch, can make decisions on personnel and programming.
00:13:02.540 He has immense authority, of course, you know, under the Alien Enemies Act.
00:13:07.140 We're tied legislation to expand the expedited removal provisions of the 1990s reform that allowed him to remove people quicker.
00:13:15.680 So all of these things, as they play out, even though there's, I think, a lot of kicking and screaming,
00:13:19.580 by and large, he's going to be pretty successful.
00:13:22.040 But it is, I think you're seeing sort of the last gasp of leftism as it made its way under the Article III branch.
00:13:30.460 But I think the law is on our side, so.
00:13:33.320 We've got about 30 seconds.
00:13:34.900 Will the president be signing the big, beautiful bill on the 4th of July on his desk?
00:13:38.900 Or we've still got a ways to go, some work in the Senate to do?
00:13:41.800 There's still some work in the Senate, but I'm still hopeful.
00:13:43.700 I think we'll get there.
00:13:44.860 But, yeah, we're working through all that right now.
00:13:48.060 Senator Schmidt, where do people go to find out more about you, your website, your social media?
00:13:52.280 How do people, you know, get to know you better?
00:13:55.840 Yeah, yeah, Eric underscore Schmidt, S-C-H-M-I-T-T.
00:13:58.980 I'm pretty active on X, and then we're on, you know, Instagram and Facebook and all that, too.
00:14:04.580 We encourage people to reach out and interact, and we'll have to get on your show more often, Steve.
00:14:08.840 Really appreciate what you do.
00:14:09.680 You have an open invitation.
00:14:11.880 The president speaks incredibly highly of you, and I know he appreciates your guidance, sir.
00:14:16.740 So thank you very much for coming on, and thank you for representing the great people in the great state of Missouri.
00:14:21.860 Thanks, Steve.
00:14:22.600 Take care.
00:14:23.880 Thank you.
00:14:25.080 President Trump won there by 18 points.
00:14:28.240 That is, Missouri is a, not just a red state, it's MAGA country.
00:14:33.040 Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break.

00:14:55.440 Alistair Gross in New York City on the other side.
00:15:00.300 This July, there is a global summit of BRICS nations in Rio de Janeiro.
00:15:04.980 The block of emerging superpowers, including China, Russia, India, and Persia,
00:15:10.620 are meeting with the goal of displacing the United States dollar as the global currency.
00:15:16.080 They're calling this the Rio Reset.
00:15:18.440 As BRICS nations push forward with their plans, global demand for U.S. dollars will decrease, 0.57

00:16:28.340 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:16:30.900 Okay, to talk about politics and economics, national security.
00:16:39.060 You know, President Trump had a great talk today about Secretary of War and EOB, that building we've shown you many times when the dignitaries are coming up,
00:16:46.500 that kind of classical building that looks like it was built late in the 19th century.
00:16:54.420 That was the Secretary of War's end-state at one time.
00:16:58.880 And the older building, I think, was actually the War Department.
00:17:01.260 President Lincoln spent so much of the Civil War in the telegraph office.
00:17:04.580 But all these are kind of inextricably linked as we've talked about the convergence of these crises.
00:17:11.760 And so what's happening in the Middle East, in the war, the 12-day war, and what's happening in Kiev,
00:17:19.540 and President Trump today saying, hey, 7,000 casualties last week on the Ukraine side.
00:17:25.780 So he's very moved by that.
00:17:28.920 He's trying to stop, as we talk about the kinetic part of the Third World War.
00:17:31.920 Sure. But this war is also, in politics, we say all the time that the central front is in Los Angeles,
00:17:38.860 the streets of Los Angeles in Chicago, where, you know, 10 million, at least 10 million illegal aliens,
00:17:44.240 just here on Biden's watch, I'm not even talking about the 30 or 40, because people say,
00:17:48.180 Steve, it's really 30 or 40. I go, yo, dude, I got it.
00:17:51.480 But if he can't take care of the 10 that came in absolutely in an invasion in the last four years,
00:17:57.580 then you're never going to take care of, you're never going to sort out the rest.
00:18:00.060 So let's just focus on that.
00:18:01.920 And you've seen this huge fight.
00:18:03.940 You know, Senator Schmidt was just talking about it.
00:18:06.380 The Supreme Court comes out.
00:18:08.080 The Supreme Court comes out and says President Trump can deport the bad hombres 1.00
00:18:11.800 and send them to different countries, and it's 100 percent not a question.
00:18:16.440 You've got judges to find the Supreme Court up in Massachusetts.
00:18:20.200 So this is a war to the knife on so many fronts,
00:18:24.640 and that's what we try to do here in the war room.
00:18:27.040 Yesterday in New York City was a tectonic plate shift, okay?
00:18:33.080 It was an explosion of something we've been following a lot.
00:18:38.680 We haven't had a chance to cover it a lot.
00:18:41.400 We've been following this campaign because it's quite extraordinary.
00:18:43.860 And one of the reasons we didn't want to cover it too much,
00:18:46.120 we wanted to give it too much air until we see how it played out,
00:18:48.660 although we were pretty solid in thinking that this young man could actually put it off
00:18:56.300 because Cuomo looked like he was not engaged all the time.
00:18:59.560 Alex DeGrasse joins me.
00:19:01.940 Alex, the candidate that won yesterday is the merger of the Red-Green,
00:19:05.280 and people have to take this very, very seriously.
00:19:07.240 This is the Red-Green merger, this kind of neo-Marxism coupled with jihadist strong beliefs, 0.95
00:19:16.440 and they've kind of merged together because they hate the Judeo-Christian West so much,
00:19:21.680 although they don't have the same belief system internally for each other.
00:19:26.620 What they want to do is take down the system and defeat the Judeo-Christian West, 1.00
00:19:31.000 and then they'll divide up the carcass later. 0.91
00:19:34.220 And if people think this is, and I've talked about this so many times on the show,
00:19:37.620 we brought so many experts on here.
00:19:39.620 It's one of the things Laura Loomer's been focused on.
00:19:42.260 We've had so many experts over the years.
00:19:44.140 Back in Breitbart, we started this over a decade ago, back in 2010 and 11 with Andrew,
00:19:50.600 and then after I took over in 12, this was a huge emphasis of ours.
00:19:53.660 We launched Breitbart, Jerusalem because of this.
00:19:56.980 One of the reasons we have Harnwell in Rome is to make sure we cover this.
00:20:01.920 Rahim Kassam is one of the great experts.
00:20:03.960 We had Rahim on this morning.
00:20:06.080 In fact, these memes are going around with, like, the Statue of Liberty, Justin Hajib or Burka.
00:20:11.620 Rahim had to cover his book, I think, a decade ago.
00:20:13.960 He put the book up today, No Go Zones, which is still, if you read it today,
00:20:17.920 you think it's ripped from today's headlines.
00:20:19.940 So this is a huge deal.
00:20:23.220 Now, on two photos, Alex DeGrasse is our expert.
00:20:26.620 Alex, first off, I want you to describe who this guy is,
00:20:28.560 but I'm telling people right now that this was one of the most sophisticated election operations I've ever seen
00:20:36.260 as far as understanding how to message, of understanding how to present your message,
00:20:42.220 of understanding where to be.
00:20:43.600 This young man and the team around him are as sophisticated.
00:20:49.500 And I say I've seen a couple of great social media campaigns win,
00:20:54.160 basically in order, Trump in 16, when we really had nothing,
00:21:00.040 Salvini, I think, Salvini in 17 and 18, and then Bolsonaro.
00:21:06.900 All three of those won with the use of social media, with very little money and very little understanding.
00:21:11.760 But Trump, Salvini in Italy, and then Bolsonaro in Brazil.
00:21:16.260 This one, I'll be brutally frank, folks, this was next level.
00:21:20.320 This was like the sophistication of Obama back in the primary against Hillary Clinton
00:21:25.280 after he had met with the Facebook guys in Zuckerberg.
00:21:28.240 And, you know, they kind of made that deal later to let the oligarchs be oligarchs, 0.98
00:21:31.620 but they got him on social media.
00:21:32.880 Hillary Clinton ran an old-fashioned campaign and eventually got smoked.
00:21:37.620 This reminded me of the book, The Last Hurrah, right?
00:21:41.540 And John Ford made a film of which I think it was Curly in Boston,
00:21:45.640 but Frank Skevington was the character.
00:21:47.920 He ran for, I think, the fifth or sixth time in the late 1950s in Boston
00:21:52.460 against some Republican who, I guess, or some guy who was going to go to PTA meetings
00:21:57.500 and school boards, and they were mocking this guy.
00:22:00.260 It's like, what the hell does he know?
00:22:01.360 So, boom, they got blown out.
00:22:04.560 Cuomo got blown out.
00:22:05.620 Alex, this is your territory.
00:22:07.140 Give us your assessment, sir.
00:22:09.320 So I think it's really interesting twofold.
00:22:11.300 He deserves a ton of credit.
00:22:13.000 We've been following his campaign, certainly Team Elise,
00:22:16.540 as we plot and, you know, do a deep dive on Elise's possible path of victory
00:22:22.020 if she were to run for governor and his campaign.
00:22:24.820 I mean, go to the website.
00:22:26.060 You know, I would tell the posse, go see what these people are capable of,
00:22:29.800 the slick branding, the sort of, I mean, it looks like it's like a,
00:22:35.060 I don't even know, a flashy movie, right?
00:22:37.580 And it's very professionally marketed.
00:22:41.080 And, you know, what he's selling is insane, of course, on the issues.
00:22:44.120 He's a total, he's a total, exactly, the intersection of jihadism, 0.77
00:22:48.640 jihadism, as well as this green, you know, communism, just the whole thing merged.
00:22:54.480 It's fascinating to think about.
00:22:57.200 But the reality is they are coming from us.
00:22:59.640 Hang on, but to low-information voters, they don't know that.
00:23:02.500 They don't know what is jihad.
00:23:04.200 They don't know neo-Marxism.
00:23:06.340 To low-information voters, and he had a massive turnout, correct me if I'm wrong,
00:23:10.120 among young people, it shocked people.
00:23:11.460 And Cuomo's was Frank Skeffington's campaign, the last Iraq. 0.95
00:23:15.320 He did the most traditional stuff, upper east side, upper west side,
00:23:18.380 go to the power brokers, go on the right shows, get set.
00:23:21.480 He got trapped all the time in these debates.
00:23:24.800 He got trapped big time in the debates.
00:23:26.100 He ran a very traditional New York City Democratic primary power,
00:23:30.560 and he got smoked by a kid that totally, I think, in New York City at least,
00:23:36.760 and I think that the rest of the country, for disruptors, kind of redefine how you actually run a campaign
00:23:43.140 when you don't raise a ton of money.
00:23:44.520 Is that correct, Alex?
00:23:45.960 Yeah, I agree.
00:23:46.660 I mean, he copied President Trump, and I was going to get, you know,
00:23:49.220 I mean, they did what the war room talked about.
00:23:51.060 I mean, they went and registered a ton of new voters,
00:23:54.360 not just that they registered tens and, I mean, tens and tens of thousands of Democrats
00:23:59.240 that they then turned out to vote.
00:24:01.400 Something I've always talked about on the show that President Trump and his campaign excel at
00:24:05.680 is, you know, bringing in those new voters.
00:24:07.860 New voters vote at a much higher rate than, you know, just sort of already registered voters, right?
00:24:13.840 So they bring people in.
00:24:15.180 They're changing.
00:24:16.140 They change the target matrix, just like President Trump did.
00:24:19.700 He had low propensity voters, like you can't imagine, coming out for him in massive numbers
00:24:24.400 and coming out early.
00:24:25.760 Now, we saw those early vote numbers, and we understood this thing was cake.
00:24:30.540 You know, the cake was baked, and we've been telling everyone, you know, all the money guys,
00:24:34.700 everyone hitting us up, hey, what do you think?
00:24:35.940 I'm like, I would save your money and not spend it on Cuomo because, you know, some of these
00:24:40.460 Democrats, you know, finance guys, right, because they're scared, Steve.
00:24:44.420 I mean, the taxes, this, that, and everything else.
00:24:46.700 But they brought the new voters in.
00:24:50.380 They registered new voters.
00:24:51.520 They turned out low propensity voters.
00:24:53.200 They did all the fundamentals.
00:24:54.700 They had 50,000 people out knocking on doors.
00:24:57.460 All I would hear from my friends in New York City, you know, I'm a New Yorker.
00:25:00.640 His ground game is everywhere.
00:25:01.680 I mean, I was in the city a couple times.
00:25:03.460 We see these people literally everywhere, Steve.
00:25:05.580 They've got an army.
00:25:06.520 You don't build an army like this and then send them home.
00:25:10.160 Someone said that to me, a very smart, you know, Democrat operative, and who's not on
00:25:14.440 the side of these communists, which, what they are, they're not socialists.
00:25:18.380 They are full-throated Marxist, communist.
00:25:22.380 You know, one of his major platforms is seizing grocery stores and turning them into government-run
00:25:28.100 stores out of the Soviet Union.
00:25:29.760 I mean, this stuff is insane.
00:25:32.140 And, you know, no one's ever said this type of stuff before, really, at least in our country.
00:25:37.760 And I think it's a big wake-up call for people, I think, in general.
00:25:41.220 But you don't build an army like this, which he built, and then send these people home,
00:25:44.660 Steve.
00:25:44.760 They're going to take this all over the country.
00:25:46.720 They only asked him softball questions.
00:25:48.660 They haven't gotten to the jihad and everything like that.
00:25:51.200 But because I talked to some professional people who totally missed it, but then there
00:25:56.280 are a couple of people I know who had been involved in politics, and they're brilliant,
00:26:00.380 and one of them kept saying, the media is missing this, but this is a modern version or newer
00:26:07.040 version of AOC versus, was it Joe Crowley, Joe Crowley, in that primary?
00:26:13.040 They go, this guy is everywhere.
00:26:15.500 And Cuomo is not showing up like Joe Crowley blew off AOC.
00:26:18.820 Next thing you know, you've got AOC, and she's a national figure. 0.99
00:26:21.600 This guy's already become a national figure in the Democratic Party overnight, kind of
00:26:25.360 as he should be, but I tell people, you've got to be very careful in thinking this through
00:26:32.460 because this is a smart, don't think you're going to just go on some sloganeering and blow
00:26:38.140 this guy out.
00:26:40.040 You've got to be very, if you're going to defeat him, and to me, he's got to be defeated.
00:26:44.040 I mean, New York City's already in bad shape.
00:26:46.720 What he's promising and the upbeat promises are going to drive, the corporation's going to
00:26:52.140 drive the tax base out of New York.
00:26:54.440 Is that too far off base, Alex?
00:26:56.920 No.
00:26:57.340 I mean, people are already talking about, you know, the real estate.
00:27:00.040 Everyone's joking in Palm Beach and Miami.
00:27:02.540 Certainly, the governor of New York has a lot of influence and power over the mayor, so
00:27:07.240 a lot of people are talking to that.
00:27:08.660 Certainly, our phones have been ringing off the hook from Democrats, Republicans, independents,
00:27:12.960 money guys all over the place, kind of gaming this out, wondering what's going on.
00:27:17.300 No, I mean, this guy, look, Cuomo is very flawed, and it was sort of a pipe dream, and that's
00:27:22.700 what's crazy about these Democrats, right, with Kamala, with Biden.
00:27:25.400 It's like, they're so out of touch, the elites, you know, just, I mean, they had like $40 million,
00:27:30.400 and this is insane.
00:27:31.340 He lit it on fire.
00:27:32.700 He ran a horrible campaign.
00:27:33.900 He's in union halls.
00:27:34.980 It's sort of out of like 10, 15 years ago, Steve.
00:27:37.480 And he's just not even out with people.
00:27:40.120 I mean, I saw a video with Mamdani.
00:27:42.080 One of Cuomo's paid canvassers is dancing, saying he's voting for Mamdani, wearing a Cuomo
00:27:46.680 canvas shirt.
00:27:48.200 And he's with Mamdani, and they're dancing, you know.
00:27:50.340 So they had this thing totally, totally locked up.
00:27:54.560 And Cuomo, I mean, he's got massive issues.
00:27:56.860 That was sort of a pipe dream, I think, for the media that sort of can't accept the fact
00:28:01.800 that the Democrat Party is going in this direction of full-blown jihadists.
00:28:06.640 Here's the thing.
00:28:07.040 Democrats play nice, Steve.
00:28:08.300 I tell you, Alex, hang on.
00:28:09.520 I want to get into all that, but I've got to take a short commercial break.
00:28:12.200 Alex de Gras is with us.
00:28:14.260 Monumental upset in New York City.
00:28:16.360 It has national implication, maybe even international, as the world came to visit in this primary.
00:28:22.160 Short break.
00:28:27.240 There's something happening with our farmland here in the United States that isn't getting
00:28:31.500 enough attention.
00:28:32.380 The Chinese have been buying up hundreds of thousands of acres of U.S. farmland. 0.99
00:28:38.080 They're also taking control over critical supply chains, things like fertilizer, animal feed,
00:28:43.740 and farming equipment.
00:28:44.860 Why?
00:28:45.700 It's not clear.
00:28:47.260 They're tightening their grip on global food production.
00:28:50.740 That is clear.
00:28:52.280 And if things go south, and it could happen quickly, we need to be ready.
00:28:58.340 That's why I trust MyPatriotSupply.

00:30:10.200 Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann.
00:30:14.640 Okay, DeGrasse is with us.
00:30:17.440 Folks, this is one that's going to take up a lot of mindshare.
00:30:21.780 One, I think the Democrats feel they've got a, on one hand, the younger Democrats feel they've
00:30:26.920 got a, not just a message, because it's all about affordability.
00:30:30.520 This guy did own the affordability issue, and Republicans have got to focus on this,
00:30:35.380 particularly for young folks.
00:30:36.420 We said for a while, folks can't own homes.
00:30:39.700 The rate of people getting married is later, family formations.
00:30:43.940 The reason is people just don't have good jobs.
00:30:46.200 25% of Harvard's graduating class do not have jobs right now.
00:30:53.500 And I'm not saying they're great, but hey, that's kind of a benchmark, right?
00:30:55.980 You come out of a school like Harvard, you think you get your ticket punched, you should
00:30:58.820 get a job.
00:30:59.440 25% unemployment.
00:31:02.040 Alex, the details of why this should be a wake-up call for Republicans, not just to
00:31:08.960 dismiss this, saying, oh, it's just Democrats in New York, you've got a bunch of crazy progressives.
00:31:12.680 The warning signs that, I say this is like a DEFCON 2 of people should pay attention.
00:31:19.080 First off, if you don't like the Nancy Pelosi's and Chuck Schumer's, I think they're being showed,
00:31:25.380 even Hakeem Jeffries, if they don't show them the door, they're essentially in the Joe Crowley
00:31:30.860 Cuomo class that these young people in the Democratic Party that are far, far left are dismissing
00:31:37.160 their elders right now, sir.
00:31:40.140 Yeah, I think if you're an establishment Democrat across the country, you should be very worried
00:31:45.420 because it's very clear that the heart and pulse of the Democrat Party is sort of into
00:31:50.420 the far left.
00:31:51.420 That's where the energy is.
00:31:52.420 That's where the momentum is.
00:31:53.420 That's where the support is, pretty overwhelmingly.
00:31:56.520 Because it's not just Mamdani, but when you add up the rest of these fools that were running,
00:32:01.020 some of these guys that got five, Lander, these random people, they're at 10%, you equal
00:32:05.860 out.
00:32:06.860 Cuomo, I mean, it's like only one-third, Steve.
00:32:09.760 So when only one-third is even voting, and Cuomo, as far left, as far as I'm aware of, he
00:32:14.760 did bail reform.
00:32:15.760 He did this, that.
00:32:16.620 You know, he's the reason why New York is in the gutter.
00:32:18.740 So, you know, they are shifting rapidly left.
00:32:22.800 And so the stakes are high, because I think you're going to see a lot of these candidates
00:32:25.380 running in races.
00:32:26.600 And I think it's important that people really look into who they are, who they're tied
00:32:29.820 to.
00:32:30.920 Mamdani's staff, Steve, has ties to terrorist organizations.
00:32:34.300 The New York Post had that.
00:32:35.880 You know, former members of the DSA, all these people.
00:32:38.600 I mean, there really is.
00:32:40.300 And the war room has been at the forefront of talking about the converging jihadist.
00:32:44.300 Really, Marxist, communist, green kind of energy type people, crazies, all climate change
00:32:50.840 cult converging.
00:32:52.680 And you've got this guy, and he ran out.
00:32:54.240 He owned the Republican narratives, affordability, right?
00:32:58.000 Costs of living, jobs, housing crisis, everything else.
00:33:01.560 He's selling crazy prescription, but it spread like wildfire.
00:33:05.640 And the big thing, Steve, is you're looking at the CCP.
00:33:08.800 They've got massive influence in New York City.
00:33:11.220 I mean, we've talked about it on this show, the infiltration of the local New York City
00:33:15.220 Democrat Party, Kathy Hochul's office.
00:33:17.540 You've seen that repeatedly with those.
00:33:19.640 What I'm hearing from folks, what we're seeing online, what some sort of analysts are looking
00:33:23.500 at is sort of how bots and other people have tried to juice him with the algorithm.
00:33:27.800 And it's really concerning, I think, looking at some of the people tied to his campaign,
00:33:33.040 have direct ties into communist sort of exterior, those kind of groups that are, you know,
00:33:38.600 sort of an extension of the CCP.
00:33:40.420 So I think more of this is going to come as he now becomes a target on the national stage.
00:33:46.160 You know, the Cuomo, they just didn't have a handle on it.
00:33:48.620 And, you know, Democrats, they struggle to try to fight each other because they've got
00:33:52.320 to be PC.
00:33:53.320 I've got to ask a question.
00:33:54.460 What shocked me, did Cuomo have an oppo department at all?
00:33:59.200 I mean, this guy really got through.
00:34:00.640 Obviously, the media is going to treat him like, you know, the second coming.
00:34:05.120 It was nothing but softball questions.
00:34:06.520 This guy's so happy, so upbeat.
00:34:08.980 You know, it's just happy, clappy the whole time.
00:34:11.820 Cuomo, who used to be a pretty tough hombre, never laid a glove on this guy.
00:34:16.200 Did Cuomo even have an oppo group doing opposition research for this guy?
00:34:20.480 Because this young man is quite dicey and very questionable, sir.
00:34:26.860 Yeah, so I've heard from a bunch of very well-sourced liberal journalists who have been really chatty
00:34:33.100 this morning and checking in with us, and they've made clear that they've heard from
00:34:37.480 those around Cuomo that there was no oppo book, there was no operation.
00:34:41.140 Of course, they were hitting him on the anti-Semitism issue and some of those bread and butter stuff,
00:34:45.920 but they really weren't looking into this guy's past.
00:34:50.900 I mean, he just moved to this country seven years ago.
00:34:52.800 I think he had a wedding in UAE, hundreds of thousands of dollars.
00:34:57.260 His parents are tied in with all these radical groups.
00:35:00.360 I mean, this guy's stone cold, Steve.
00:35:03.420 I mean, this is really, you know, something out of a book in many regards.
00:35:07.040 And no, I think that they didn't do anything.
00:35:09.700 I think now the country is sort of looking at this.
00:35:11.980 I know people on the right, people on the left, people all over the place,
00:35:14.640 kind of what is going on, scratching their heads.
00:35:17.540 And it's alarming.
00:35:18.680 New York City's got, what, 1.3 million Jewish people, I think.
00:35:22.320 A ton of young Jewish people came out and voted for this guy.
00:35:25.760 Yeah, that's right.
00:35:27.540 It's amazing.
00:35:28.500 And Gaza was a big part of this.
00:35:31.140 I mean, all the issues that have come up on Columbia and all the arrests down to Washington Square Park,
00:35:37.400 how big this has been, this kind of intifada-supporting revolt by the worst elements, right?
00:35:45.180 It's shocking that they used that to their advantage.
00:35:48.040 That's why I'm saying it better be a wake-up call for people because 26 is going to come.
00:35:53.260 This thing's going to be in November.
00:35:54.620 Next thing you know, you're going to be in 26.
00:35:56.220 People, we've got to deconstruct.
00:35:57.900 Now, you can strip the bark off this guy, which I'm sure whoever eventually, if it's Cuomo or Adams or Curtis Sowa,
00:36:06.640 I think is a great guy, but he's a novelty candidate.
00:36:10.080 It can't be him at the end of the day.
00:36:13.680 Somebody's going to do the oppo and just hold him accountable.
00:36:16.900 But there are lessons here for the Republican Party.
00:36:20.020 Like you said, they took a little of the populist issues.
00:36:25.940 Of course, he's got these bizarre communist socialist solutions,
00:36:29.880 but they knew that people want people that are going to fight.
00:36:32.820 They want people that are engaged.
00:36:34.580 They want people that are there to disrupt.
00:36:36.900 They're tired of the way it is.
00:36:38.300 You know, this is kind of the rent's too damn high.
00:36:40.960 And, you know, I can't, my job doesn't pay anything.
00:36:44.040 I don't have any health care, et cetera.
00:36:45.900 Alex DeGrasse, what are the big lessons you take away as a strategist?
00:36:51.780 Yeah, no, I think the social media was huge.
00:36:54.020 I think, obviously, he sort of sees the moment, was everywhere, you know, using.
00:36:59.220 I think the key is that he is leading a movement.
00:37:02.600 This is not a campaign.
00:37:03.580 Just like President Trump leads a movement that we're all probably part of.
00:37:07.860 And you've got, now it's sort of the next level here.
00:37:10.540 See, we've got two movements and there's going to be a collision, of course.
00:37:13.720 You've got President Trump out here bashing him as a communist psychopath or whatever you said.
00:37:18.620 But the reality is that a communist psychopath has hundreds of thousands of followers now that are mobilizing.
00:37:24.980 And they're ready for a throwdown.
00:37:26.740 And so are we.
00:37:27.580 And so this is going to develop.
00:37:29.000 So I look forward to continuing as we track this, Steve, because I think this is going to be nationwide.
00:37:34.020 That's my take.
00:37:34.680 This is coming.
00:37:35.780 The city is nationwide.
00:37:36.580 The unwritten story was the same thing.
00:37:39.500 DSA candidates, working family, socialist candidates won in Albany, Buffalo, maybe Yonkers.
00:37:45.640 I'm trying to remember.
00:37:46.180 So all across New York State, people of this ilk, not as far out there as him, won in all these Democrat primaries.
00:37:53.920 And I think that's going to be a big trend.
00:37:55.380 And we've got to gear up because they're going to bring this new coalition.
00:37:58.780 We've got to be ready for a fight, of course.
00:38:00.560 The ballot box.
00:38:01.360 You've got to be ready for a fight.
00:38:02.300 And think about it, Alex, almost 25 years from 9-11.
00:38:10.140 And he's a radical jihadist.
00:38:12.540 His parents, his father, first of all, his branch, as Rahim went through today, the 12ers, are one of the most radical branches of all. 0.99
00:38:20.120 And his father is certainly a radical.
00:38:22.980 And his formation as a young man was through this.
00:38:26.860 And it's entering a big portion of young Jewish, progressive Jewish people voted for him.
00:38:31.520 Also, you dropped another bombshell to be in the break.
00:38:34.560 Are you saying he actually from some of the Orthodox neighborhoods?
00:38:37.820 And the Orthodox, as folks know, have been the backbone in these Jewish communities of the Trump MAGA vote.
00:38:43.340 Are you saying he's actually in some Orthodox neighborhoods actually voted for this guy?
00:38:48.180 He pulled out some votes there, of course, which people were surprised about.
00:38:52.260 And from the feedback we're hearing from those communities is that Cuomo just really had no get-out-to-vote operation.
00:38:58.880 And his people showed up and were there.
00:39:00.580 They were working the doors.
00:39:01.540 They were talking with folks.
00:39:02.780 They were in the grassroots.
00:39:04.000 They were organizing.
00:39:04.960 And, hey, when you put that work in, you get votes.
00:39:07.080 That's what we've been saying on the show, Steve.
00:39:09.100 Right?
00:39:11.360 They got it.
00:39:12.040 Sir, where do people go for your social media?
00:39:13.760 I know you're all over this one.
00:39:15.860 The Grass 81.
00:39:17.240 I'm on X.
00:39:17.940 Truth getter.
00:39:19.700 All of it.
00:39:20.260 Thank you, Steve.
00:39:20.980 I think people really get it.
00:39:22.020 Go to his website.
00:39:23.400 Take a look at the marketing.
00:39:24.920 Read into his bio.
00:39:26.200 I'm sure Raheem hit it on the head.
00:39:27.460 Really alarming stuff, of course.
00:39:29.500 But the reality, just quickly, is the National Democrats who are calling him a star, well, then, honestly, they are going to own these crazy policies.
00:39:36.180 And this is going to be a big issue for them politically.
00:39:38.660 So that's the other thing here.
00:39:39.740 All right.
00:39:40.320 Thank you, Steve.
00:39:40.940 They're saying, oh, he's a star.
00:39:42.260 They're right now.
00:39:43.460 I'm telling you.
00:39:44.020 Their days, their half-life of those guys is shorter than the Republicans.
00:39:48.060 This is going to be a MAGA populist, you know, right-wing throwdown with this in this coming November.
00:39:56.180 You can see.
00:39:56.720 I think it's going to be quite surprising.
00:39:58.420 He can definitely be beaten.
00:39:59.460 There's no doubt about that.
00:40:00.460 But you've got to get.
00:40:01.800 You better be very focused.
00:40:03.460 Do not think this kid's a pushover.
00:40:04.900 All those people that dismissed Obama early on when you saw what he was doing.
00:40:09.720 Remember, he ran as an anti-war populist against the Clinton mafia.
00:40:12.600 Don't dismiss this.
00:40:15.280 And this is actually more dangerous, I think.
00:40:17.820 Neo-Marxism and the red-green alliance.
00:40:19.540 Neo-Marxism and radical jihad.
00:40:22.020 Particularly in the heart, the financial capital of the world.
00:40:24.460 Alex, thank you.
00:40:25.160 One more time.
00:40:25.800 Where do people go, sir?
00:40:27.360 At Degrass 81 on X.
00:40:29.640 At Degrass on Truth Getter.
00:40:31.900 Thanks, Steve.
00:40:33.700 Thanks to the war room.
00:40:34.580 Thank you, brother.
00:40:36.020 Thank you, sir.
00:40:38.780 Today, I know, you know, we finished the show.
00:40:41.720 I was, today was a little, this morning was a little, I'm not convoluted.
00:40:45.780 But, because we had the, we had the president's press conference, his remarks, his press conference.
00:40:50.960 It was supposed to start at 9. 0.69
00:40:52.700 So, I kind of figured, hey, if they start on time, it'll roll right into the show, it'll be perfect.
00:40:56.760 Of course, they started at 10 and went to 10.
00:40:59.620 It was magnificent.
00:41:01.060 I could have played that over and over again.
00:41:03.380 To run the sprockets off it, as we say here.
00:41:05.340 The, you know, he's calling on Caitlin Collins.
00:41:08.260 He called on, like, the hardest, toughest people.
00:41:11.060 I think he called on the woman who actually worked.
00:41:13.060 So, he says, hey, there's another beauty, right?
00:41:15.820 And, just calling the toughest people to ask the toughest questions.
00:41:18.960 But, he was fantastic.
00:41:20.060 But, one of the points I wanted to get to was this explosive story in the Washington Post about Netanyahu and his government.
00:41:26.500 And, I know it's caused quite a stir in Jerusalem, quite a stir in Tel Aviv.
00:41:31.880 It's an explosive story.
00:41:33.420 Grace, if you get it back into the chats, I need everybody to read it.
00:41:36.340 Because, over there, they're very nervous about it.
00:41:38.660 Because, it exposes, you know, there's supposed to be an ally and supposed to be a, working with the United States is quite evident.
00:41:48.280 And, I say this, Newsweek talked to me a little while ago.
00:41:50.700 I don't know if it's in the headline.
00:41:51.760 But, they're a protectorate, not an ally.
00:41:55.660 We don't have an alliance with them, first off.
00:41:57.560 So, technically, they're not an ally.
00:41:59.000 It's just like people call Ukraine an ally.
00:42:00.620 Ukraine's not an ally.
00:42:02.660 Israel's not an ally. 0.82
00:42:03.580 That we have a special relationship.
00:42:05.460 That special relationship, we're really a protectorate.
00:42:07.980 And, they played that to the heel.
00:42:09.400 And, I think, you know, it's time for a thought, a rethinking, and a reset of that.
00:42:14.560 We can never again get drawn.
00:42:16.040 And, President Trump was as adamant as I've ever seen him in The Hague.
00:42:19.880 The 12-day war is over.
00:42:22.260 The nuclear capability of Iran, of the Persian, has been totally obliterated. 0.92
00:42:27.800 In case you didn't understand that, I think he sent out another true social after that.
00:42:31.220 But, I understand now there's going to be an 8 a.m. press conference with Pete Hegseth and others.
00:42:37.340 Maybe even some of the pilots.
00:42:39.000 Tomorrow morning at the Pentagon.
00:42:40.400 Clearly, Real America's Voice will cover that.
00:42:43.340 I'm going to work with my staff.
00:42:44.860 We're going to figure this out.
00:42:45.820 I may even be.
00:42:47.200 We'll start live a little early.
00:42:48.500 At least for some commentary and observations after that happens.
00:42:51.940 Maybe get Postra to focus, too.
00:42:53.740 Because it's very important.
00:42:55.360 And, President Trump's worked on this.
00:42:56.620 But, the most important thing is saying, hey, this war is over.
00:42:59.540 Right?
00:42:59.740 12-day war.
00:43:00.580 Boom.
00:43:00.820 No, no, no.
00:43:01.840 We're not getting dragged into it.
00:43:03.200 We're not going to get.
00:43:04.360 We did our duty.
00:43:05.880 We did it.
00:43:06.520 We shut it down.
00:43:07.380 It's total obliteration.
00:43:09.620 We're moving on.
00:43:10.540 I realize for the Tel Aviv live-ins and all the town criers over at Fox News and the Murdochs and everybody that wants us to get sucked in.
00:43:18.900 And the arms industry sucked into another war.
00:43:21.660 President Trump's got enough on his plate.
00:43:23.640 The mass deportations.
00:43:25.000 He's going to have to come back and still negotiate big aspects of the big, beautiful bill.
00:43:31.520 But then he's going to act as whip.
00:43:32.900 He's going to whip the house.
00:43:33.940 He's going to have to whip the Senate.
00:43:35.040 He's going to have to make the deal and then close the deal.
00:43:38.920 And didn't even talk.
00:43:39.660 I mean, he doesn't even mention about Ukraine.
00:43:41.300 Everything is going on Ukraine.
00:43:42.220 He admitted Ukraine's a hard one.
00:43:43.540 Why?
00:43:44.160 You know, the Russians are kind of on the move. 0.97
00:43:45.720 The Ukrainians are holding out. 1.00
00:43:46.840 Nobody's ever questioned their valor.
00:43:48.920 President Trump, you can see how he's touched today, saying 7,000 dead.
00:43:52.800 So for all of those that support Israel and really support Israel, right, support Israel, not just any political group over there or government, it's time now really to pay attention.
00:44:04.980 Really pay attention.
00:44:06.460 Short commercial break.
00:44:07.380 Back in a moment.
00:44:07.960 You missed the IRS tax deadline.

00:45:33.600 Okay, birch gold.
00:45:39.000 Turbulence.
00:45:39.980 We're in a fourth turning now.
00:45:41.240 You can tell that.
00:45:42.080 And it's accelerating at an accelerating rate.
00:45:45.500 Look at what's happening in New York City.
00:45:46.820 And we're going to spend a lot more time on that because, obviously, the financial capital of the world, also, it drives a big part of American politics.
00:45:54.400 The media is right there.
00:45:55.960 This is going to be a big one.
00:45:57.080 And we're going to get all over it.
00:45:58.360 I know already in the engine room there's some conflicting ideas and opinions about how this thing is going to play out.
00:46:04.740 That's great.
00:46:05.280 We're going to work through it all.
00:46:07.540 Birchgold.com, end of the dollar empire, Philippatrion team, we're all going down to the Rio Reset.
00:46:13.540 I think Putin said that there was something today that Putin may not go because the arrest warrants from the ICC, not that they would arrest him in Brazil.
00:46:20.900 I think it's kind of nonsense.
00:46:22.700 We'll have to figure it out.
00:46:23.640 I'm not too sure the senior guy is going to go.
00:46:25.760 Their finance ministers are already talking about this situation with the Chinese and the Chinese trying to come up with alternative currencies.
00:46:33.740 I don't know if it's going to have some sort of gold certificate backing, but we're going to play it up.
00:46:37.340 But what you need to do is understand the debt ceiling, debt deficits, all of it, and the centrality of the U.S. dollar being the prime reserve currency in your life.
00:46:48.980 Remember, we told you two things.
00:46:50.060 The 10-year treasury, you ought to be checking that every day, and the centrality of the dollar being the prime reserve currency and how that makes your life better sometimes, but also pulls more commitments for the good old United States of America.

00:47:29.640 Daniel Buck, VP Strategic Partnerships.
00:47:32.940 People know and they love Patriot Mobile.
00:47:35.120 They love what Glenn Story does.
00:47:36.720 You guys have helped save Texas.
00:47:38.120 You're doing extraordinary work.
00:47:40.800 People are tired of giving their money to these phone companies, mobile services that hate them and hate their values.
00:47:47.480 They understand that.
00:47:49.260 The questions are, if I switch here, is my phone going to work?
00:47:53.080 I mean, Patriot Mobile is not the size of some of these Goliaths.
00:47:57.740 So does the service work?
00:47:59.260 Is it going to work?
00:48:00.040 And what else you got?
00:48:00.780 Can you help us out here, ma'am?
00:48:02.400 Absolutely, Steve.
00:48:03.180 Those are great questions that I get asked every day.
00:48:05.440 And, yes, your phone is going to work on Patriot Mobile because we run on the exact same networks.
00:48:10.700 We have the same 4G, 5G networks across this entire country.
00:48:14.520 And we have a plan that will fit everyone's budget.
00:48:17.380 And I promise that you can keep your phone and keep your phone number when you switch to Patriot Mobile.
00:48:22.440 And the best part is when you call to switch, you're going to talk to an American you can understand because we have all U.S.-based customer service.
00:48:29.900 And they're friendly and ready to help you get switched over today.
00:48:33.120 So talk to us.
00:48:37.100 Where do they have to go?
00:48:38.740 We put out 972 Patriot.
00:48:40.420 We put out the website.
00:48:41.880 Where do they have to go?
00:48:42.840 They talk to customer service.
00:48:44.780 I understand one of the plans is you can choose every type of all the phone services to come in.
00:48:50.300 Of course, my staff does it all for me because I'm technologically a moron.
00:48:54.300 How do people do it?
00:48:55.360 Yeah, so whether you're an individual, you're on a family plan, or you're a business of 1,000 lines, we have a plan to fit you.
00:49:02.260 We have plans starting at $26 a month all the way to $76.
00:49:05.220 Or if you're on a family plan, we have multi-line discounts just like the big carriers.
00:49:09.880 So I promise you all can get the same great coverage on Patriot Mobile.
00:49:14.160 And you're going to be obviously voting with your dollars as you talk about all the time when you talk about Patriot Mobile.
00:49:19.220 And so, yeah, let's do this together, right, because we're only as strong if we all link together.
00:49:24.520 Because as you were talking earlier, like our Constitution is under attack.
00:49:27.340 And when you join Patriot Mobile, when you get your welcome packet, you also get a Constitution.
00:49:32.160 And as you know, right, this is so under attack right now in America.
00:49:35.540 So call 972-PATRIOT, use code BANNON, and get a free month.
00:49:39.940 Or you can also go to PatriotMobile.com and check it out.
00:49:44.580 Code BANNON.
00:49:45.460 Okay, do it today.
00:49:47.060 Danielle, thank you very much.
00:49:48.460 Appreciate you coming on.
00:49:50.280 Thanks, Steve.
00:49:51.560 Love Patriot Mobile.
00:49:52.780 They've done so much fantastic work.
00:49:54.520 And it's a great service.
00:49:55.680 So really appreciate them.
00:50:00.960 Quite a day.
00:50:02.040 President Trump at NATO.
00:50:03.980 The reason we did, and we didn't have enough time in Iowa.
00:50:06.640 Tomorrow we're going to cover actually, I think it will be our other platforms.
00:50:12.240 We have many channels here on Getter and on Rumble to put things up.
00:50:19.160 And we're going to stream tomorrow.
00:50:20.620 The Koreans are going to do a live press conference from the National Press Club. 0.85
00:50:24.880 They're going to talk a lot.
00:50:25.620 They're going to talk about the election.
00:50:28.600 They have some issues with the election.
00:50:30.300 They are going to talk about this new party.
00:50:33.260 Remember, they didn't show up at NATO.
00:50:35.660 Not that Japan and Korea showing up is vitally important, but it's very important.
00:50:40.760 Because although they're not members, they're talking about what's going on with the Chinese Communist Party in the South China Sea.
00:50:46.280 And also their defense budget gained their defense budget back up to speed.
00:50:49.340 And as I've said, the CCP kind of controls the party that won the last election.
00:50:54.540 And so they showed no limited interest in coming.
00:50:57.360 The 75th anniversary, I think we're the only show that did anything at all.
00:51:00.920 We opened the show about this.
00:51:02.580 Because it's kind of called the Unknown War, and it shouldn't be.
00:51:06.000 It was absolutely brutal.
00:51:07.300 And the heroism of the American Marines and the U.S. Army, it's just incredible.
00:51:12.680 Of course, the Navy at that time was just the Air Force was starting to be broken off from the Army, the old Army Air Corps.
00:51:19.580 Just incredible.
00:51:20.540 And we still have 25,000 troops in South Korea.
00:51:23.220 Just like I think we have, I don't know, 25,000 or 30,000 in Germany.
00:51:26.200 But throughout the world, I believe the number now is about 145,000 to 150,000.
00:51:31.000 And I'm not sure that totally counts all the carrier battle groups.
00:51:34.360 Like the two or three that are still in the North Arabian Sea for the 12-day war, which is over.
00:51:41.660 As President Trump has told us, he was victorious.
00:51:45.200 The elements he brought in to close it down were magnificent.
00:51:48.620 There will be a press conference at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.
00:51:51.140 We will cover it, Real America's Voice.
00:51:53.480 I think you'll get some war room participation also, Pete Hexeth.
00:51:57.420 Mike Lindell, we finish our 5 o'clock show when we can with you.
00:52:01.700 Korea had an election that blew their heads up.
00:52:03.920 You're working for that.

00:52:14.320 It says, Mike Lindell will not back down.
