Bannon's War Room - Episode 4630： Trump Meets With Rutte On Defense For Ukraine

00:00:00.000 this is the primal scream of a dying regime pray for our enemies because we're going to

00:00:09.840 medieval on these people here's not got a free shot all these networks lying about the people

00:00:16.440 the people have had a belly full of it I know you don't like hearing that I know you try to

00:00:20.500 do everything the world to stop that but you're not going to stop it it's going to happen and

00:00:23.940 where do people like that go to share the big line mega media I wish in my soul I wish that any

00:00:31.620 of these people had a conscience ask yourself what is my task and what is my purpose if that

00:00:38.360 answer is to save my country this country will be saved war room here's your host stephen k band

00:00:47.380 monday 14 july year of our lord 2025 um war and the rumor of wars are throughout the imperial capital

00:00:58.860 the uh secretary general of nato is uh in washington and he will be meeting this morning supposedly with

00:01:08.480 the president united states the commander in chief um and I think that thing's been bumped back at

00:01:13.000 least an hour tentatively was scheduled I think to come and start at least show up at 10 maybe start

00:01:18.480 11 so we're gonna um we're gonna figure all this out we've got a crew there uh if anything happens

00:01:23.900 live we'll jump right into it uh ben harnwell uh oh excuse me I got dan call it dan uh what make us

00:01:29.900 smart you're gonna punch out but make us smart and what we should be thinking about this nato meeting

00:01:36.160 with the president uh contextualize it for us and uh and and what do you see coming out of it

00:01:41.740 so details really matter here and I I think we need to be very hesitant about initial reports about

00:01:50.100 what is agreed to so to get specific is are the europeans just paying for arms we already agreed

00:01:57.280 to deliver something I mentioned earlier the second thing is are the europeans going to send patriots

00:02:03.960 from their stocks to ukraine which they've been they've done a little bit but they've been hesitant to

00:02:09.120 give more because they want to make uncle sam uncle sucker and get us to send their stuff is

00:02:14.860 president trump going to be able to get them to send their stuff first and then we backfill it for

00:02:19.940 the normal production process or are we going to send our stuff to the europeans immediately to backfill

00:02:26.640 their stocks and that creates readiness issues across the board and the final thing I would just say

00:02:31.420 is is we got it more long term is this defense increased defense spending in europe actually

00:02:38.420 going to happen there is a very very long history of people like the germans the french the british

00:02:44.440 making these promises and then when they see the united states doubling down in europe they eventually

00:02:51.060 don't fall through so I think this is going to be a key thing is this additional defense spending

00:02:56.340 actually going to lead to not just burden sharing but burden shifting in the long term and that's

00:03:02.820 what we need to achieve and I'll just say in closing here is that to incentivize that burden shift we have

00:03:11.200 to pull back because if we don't then the europeans aren't going to feel like that that they actually

00:03:17.360 have to fall through so that's essential is that president trump needs to make sure these these promises

00:03:22.440 are are actually kept but the one if you look at history the one way he's yeah the one yeah

00:03:28.440 i agree dan the one way he's doing that i think he's saying you're paying for these we're not giving

00:03:34.780 these to the ukrainian you are going to be the middleman you're going to buy the weapons so this

00:03:39.600 is going to go in your account you you're talking about five percent i agree with you and i think

00:03:42.880 president trump agrees with you he understands that they're wiley and in root ruta is a shifty guy or a

00:03:49.260 slick guy should say not shifty a slick guy and that's why it's even on the offensive weapons

00:03:55.740 they're buying them and they're giving them to ukraine correct that's the currently the deal that

00:04:00.340 at least our our limited knowledge is what's on the table yes that's what president trump has said

00:04:06.880 that has been discussed in the past um it's just the question the big the most important detail i think

00:04:12.820 is how are are the europeans going to backfill their stocks uh and how we're going to do that

00:04:20.880 is it going to be through the regular production process which could take years to backfill their

00:04:25.440 stocks or are we going to send them something from our own stocks right away and that latter scenario

00:04:30.620 i think is where you run into trouble because you you make the readiness issues you've talked about a

00:04:36.320 lot a lot worse specifically in in the indo-pacific no against the ccp which is keep the main thing the

00:04:44.760 main thing is captain finnell always reminds me it's like a zen master every day he's hit me with a stick

00:04:49.780 if i uh if i if i get if i lose my if i lose my concentration of focus what she's supposed to do

00:04:56.300 berkowitz and these other guys they're great uh because the ccp is the threat that's why we can't

00:05:01.360 get sucked into uh this side event and this is a side event uh caldwell where do people get you

00:05:06.780 particularly on social media i'm on x at at dan d caldwell uh that's the best place to find uh find

00:05:14.340 my work thank you brother appreciate you thanks for having me on take out your phone thank you sir

00:05:22.520 take out your phone and text bannon b-a-n-n-o-n at 9-8-9-8-9-8 get the free guide which is also

00:05:30.200 the ultimate guide to investing in gold and precious metals in the age of trump i would only

00:05:35.140 add to that this uh this brochure is fantastic i would just add to that the increased turbulence

00:05:41.040 of a major conflict on the eurasian landmass which looks like it's upon us it's already started it's

00:05:46.600 two years almost three years old right or two and a half years old uh and it is um it's not it's not

00:05:54.080 it's not winding down i would argue maybe winding up we're gonna go to the white house soon as

00:05:59.340 something happens john solomon up yet i'm looking at my producer we're trying to get john solomon up

00:06:03.380 uh because we're not this is not wag the dog trust me president trump this is deeper than that so it's

00:06:09.300 not a wag the dog moment uh and we are going to discuss what's going on in the deep state because

00:06:14.180 the deep state's hands the dark hand of the deep state is behind these decisions folks uh ben hornwell

00:06:22.240 uh the new york times kind of exposes this of and it's a brilliant piece also ben i think you got

00:06:28.400 some other comments in ukraine so before we shift off ukraine give me your give me your closing

00:06:32.380 thoughts from your perch in the internal city yeah look so the axial spin on this on this uh pre-announced

00:06:42.540 deal uh and i flag the flag that up that i that it was you know this kind of announcement one would

00:06:49.620 expect to come out in the joint statement after the meeting between potus and the nato secretary

00:06:55.520 general mark reuter it's been announced it's been pre-announced um now you can all have

00:07:00.420 interpretations as to why that is um but it seemed to me steve that president trump was very much

00:07:07.380 wanting to take ownership of this and he didn't want it to make it look he didn't want it to appear

00:07:12.600 like nato had bounced him into this he wanted to be seen leading this initiative but the interesting

00:07:19.900 thing in this article in the word aggressive there in that headline you could see actually comes from

00:07:24.700 lindsey graham which should tell you all you need to know approvingly comes from lindsey graham but

00:07:30.700 the interesting thing about that article is that it's not just about the patriot missiles which had

00:07:34.560 been announced last week well several times over over the last few weeks but most lately last week as a

00:07:41.200 defensive measure also in this package president trump is offering according to axios uh offensive um

00:07:49.820 weapons um and i say that i flagged that up i know that you hit that earlier with dan on the show

00:07:55.660 uh i flagged that up because a lot of the the feedback i had on the the on getter was saying

00:08:01.520 harnwell don't be a panicker and you're panicking over nothing president trump is just maneuvering here

00:08:06.280 to give zelensky some sort of greater defensive um capability this would definitely you know for

00:08:13.820 those who are still living that narrative this would very much go beyond that um let's see can i pivot now

00:08:20.380 to this article that came out i think on saturday i i put it out on ghetto on saturday um from the new

00:08:25.780 york times how netanyahu prolonged the war and just hang on for us ben ben ben ben just hang on for

00:08:33.320 one second just put a pin and we're gonna get right to that but i got john solomon up so john we broke uh

00:08:39.020 with you broke on our show on friday the extended version uh this situation about the fbi looking at

00:08:45.380 going after the deep state on a a host of things going back to the beginning a crossfire hurricane

00:08:50.680 before trump was president going into the nullification project and the russia hoax uh

00:08:57.080 including the perfect uh the impeachment and the perfect phone call uh doing maybe potentially the

00:09:02.060 2020 uh election uh the j6 a whole raft of things you've got additional reporting

00:09:08.380 uh can you get us up to speed on this and are we close how much effort did fbi have to put into

00:09:13.860 this investigation before we actually announce a special counsel sir yeah listen i think there's

00:09:20.500 enough evidence already there that they could name a special counsel as early this week it's really just

00:09:24.980 up to pam bondy this is an opportunity for her to change the subject from epstein to something that

00:09:30.380 is perhaps more consequential to the american people long term uh and they can clean up epstein with

00:09:35.960 someone else perhaps secondly um their evidence is all laying out in public view except for for two

00:09:42.220 highly classified pieces of intelligence one is in the inspector general report

00:09:46.700 on hillary clinton's email that reveals that the united states intelligence community got new evidence

00:09:52.140 of possible criminality in the hillary clinton email scandal but did not pursue it just before james

00:09:58.260 comey cleared her of all criminal wrongdoing that has stayed secret for eight years chuck grassley the

00:10:03.800 senate judiciary community chairman has been relentlessly pursuing him he has president trump's

00:10:08.640 ear i think that's going to get declassified in the next few days that will show that there was reason

00:10:14.100 to pursue hillary clinton not claire her and not pursue donald trump they should have not ever

00:10:19.680 investigated him for russia collusion the second piece of classified evidence that could be

00:10:23.960 released is uh referred to by john durham as the clinton plan intelligence it's an intercept

00:10:30.280 five days before the fbi opened up on uh crossfire hurricane that hillary clinton was about to concoct a

00:10:39.140 russian uh scandal and try to pretend that vladimir putin was helping donald trump win the election

00:10:44.700 that means that the cia the fbi and president obama himself personally was aware that what hillary

00:10:51.460 clinton was doing was a ruse a political dirty trick and still james comey's fbi opened up on the

00:10:57.260 information if those two pieces of evidence get declassified so grand jurors can see it

00:11:02.080 pam bondi names a special prosecutor we could be rolling by the end of this week

00:11:06.180 end of this week um part of this because you had durham you had all this you reported extensively

00:11:14.160 part of this is not going to be just what they tried to do to president trump but isn't a big part

00:11:20.340 of this also going to be the cover-up because you you had durham you had people but it looks like

00:11:24.700 obviously now information was specifically buried uh either people lied purged themselves or buried

00:11:31.520 information because this stuff should have come out i mean this is the whole purpose of durham and

00:11:36.080 these other things this should have come out and even these house investigations this should have

00:11:39.560 come out years ago correct yeah listen look at the china interference in the 2020 election that

00:11:44.520 allegation that was buried until just a few weeks ago remember cash patel said when he got in there

00:11:49.560 he found this room full of documents that were never released to congress mostly on russiagate uh

00:11:55.840 that is a whole new tranche so the cover-up as it often is can be a big part of the scandal and it

00:12:01.440 could be a part of the ongoing conspiracy as the fbi looks at this they're looking at it as one grand

00:12:06.680 conspiracy that a constant pattern of clearing democrats of criminal wrongdoing in the face of

00:12:12.420 hey john john john we got to go to the live shot and then go to the live shot in the in the oval

00:12:18.820 let's go and cut markets the head of nato mark ruta secretary general of nato highly respected by

00:12:26.560 everybody that knows him but in particular the european countries they have great reliance

00:12:31.240 and he's done a fantastic job and we had a tremendous meeting i guess it's about a month now

00:12:38.980 a month ago and i think mark will tell you that it was really perhaps more important the the date of

00:12:46.940 november 5th that was the election day maybe that was the most important because we've made

00:12:50.600 tremendous progress together and one of the reasons that you're here today is to hear that we are very

00:12:57.520 unhappy i am with russia but we'll discuss that maybe a different day but we're very very unhappy

00:13:05.980 with them and we're going to be doing very severe tariffs if we don't have a deal in 50 days

00:13:12.400 tariffs at about 100 percent you'd call them secondary tariffs you know what that means

00:13:17.940 but today we're going to talk about something else and as you know we've spent 350 billion dollars

00:13:25.980 approximately on this war with russia and ukraine i would like to see it end it wasn't my war it

00:13:33.060 was biden's war it's not my war i'm trying to get you out of it and we want to see it end and i'm

00:13:40.680 disappointed in president putin because i thought we would have had a deal two months ago but it doesn't

00:13:46.280 seem to get there so based on that we're going to be doing secondary tariffs if we don't have a deal

00:13:51.600 in 50 days it's very simple and they'll be at 100 percent and that's the way it is that can be more

00:13:58.360 simple it's just the way it is i hope we don't have to do it but regardless we are going to be

00:14:05.560 we make the greatest military equipment in the world whether it's missiles you saw that

00:14:11.100 recently in a round the way those planes flew in they had every single 14 bombs hit every target

00:14:16.720 then you had the helicopter shoot a total of 30 bombs 30 missiles and they hit every single mark

00:14:26.240 is that right every single peter every single target and it was uh i guess on a scale of zero to 10 they

00:14:34.900 say it was about a 15 that's how successful it was that's how lethal it was a word they like to use

00:14:41.300 nowadays but it was it was an amazing uh well-organized attack that people in this country

00:14:50.040 wanted to do for 24 years you know when we had the pilots in last week they were saying sir we've been

00:14:55.460 practicing this for 24 years meaning people not them but other people that are a little older now

00:15:00.980 but they too and uh you were the one that let us do it but we've uh been practicing it three to four

00:15:08.400 times a year for 22 24 years because they always knew that it stopped iran from doing what they

00:15:17.140 were doing which is uh trying to come up with a nuclear weapon a nuclear bomb and we did it very

00:15:24.120 successfully and we make the best uh equipment the best missiles the best of everything uh the european

00:15:33.400 nations know that and we've made a deal today and i'm going to have mark speak about it but

00:15:38.260 we've made a deal today where we are going to be sending them weapons and they're going to be

00:15:43.640 paying for them we the united states will not be having any payment made uh we're not buying it

00:15:51.320 but we will manufacture it and they're going to be paying for it uh our last meeting of a month ago

00:15:56.780 was very successful in that they agreed to five percent which is more than a trillion dollars a year so

00:16:01.940 they have a lot of money and they these are wealthy nations they have a lot of money and they want to do it

00:16:06.740 they feel very strongly about it and we feel strongly about it too but we're in for a lot of money and

00:16:12.120 we just we don't want to do anymore and we can't but we make the best and we're going to be sending

00:16:17.580 the best to nato and in some cases to maybe uh at mark's suggestion if we go to germany where

00:16:23.800 they're going to send early on missiles and they'll be replaced and nato is going to take care of it's going

00:16:30.460 to be coordinated by uh nato and they're going to work very much with matt whitaker who's right here

00:16:35.840 who's a great ambassador and matt's going to be coordinate you better do a good job matt i will

00:16:40.660 but matt's going to coordinate he's a very talented guy he's going to coordinate everything

00:16:45.060 so in a nutshell uh we're going to make top of the line weapons and they'll be sent to nato

00:16:51.720 nato may choose to have certain of them sent to other countries where we can get a little

00:16:56.460 additional speed where the country will release something and be it'll be mostly in the form of

00:17:01.240 a replacement and uh i'd like to have mark and again just a highly respected pretty young guy

00:17:08.700 pretty young guy for having had the career that he's had because he had an amazing career

00:17:14.860 before going to nato so uh and we spent a lot of time together over the last couple of months

00:17:20.880 and if you could say a few words absolutely no no mr president dear donald this is really big

00:17:26.480 this is really big you called me on thursday that you have taken a decision uh and a decision is that

00:17:33.820 you want to bring what it needs to have to maintain to be able to defend itself against russia but you

00:17:41.800 do want europeans to pay for it which is totally logical um and this is building on the tremendous

00:17:47.960 success of the nato summit uh the five percent but also the decision to keep ukraine strong

00:17:54.500 and a decision to increase our defense industrial production so based on that this is that was europe

00:18:01.140 stepping up this is again europeans uh stepping up so i've been in contact with many countries i can

00:18:06.780 tell you that this moment germany massively but also finland and denmark and sweden and norway we

00:18:12.780 have kingdom and netherlands canada they all want to be part of this and this is only the first

00:18:17.760 wave there will be more so what we will do is work through the nato systems to make sure that we

00:18:22.640 know what ukrainians need so if you can make packages of course in a way we discussed it this

00:18:28.200 morning with pete hexat at the pentagon in a way that of course the u.s will keep on its stockpiles

00:18:34.940 necessary to defend this country that's absolutely clear but it will mean that ukraine can get its hands

00:18:40.360 on really massive numbers of military equipment uh both for air defense but also missiles ammunition

00:18:49.540 etc etc so if i was vladimir putin today and hear you speaking about what you were planning to do in 50

00:18:55.520 days and this announcement uh i would reconsider whether i should not take negotiations uh about

00:19:02.220 ukraine more seriously than i was doing at the moment if i was vladimir putin but when i'm ukraine i think

00:19:07.120 this is really great news for that so i really want to thank you for that but it means european

00:19:10.900 is paying for it and again i mentioned all these countries uh we will deal with that and exactly

00:19:15.700 as you said it might also mean that countries will move equipment fast into ukraine and then the u.s

00:19:23.320 later backfilling it uh because uh speed is of the essence here so really thank you this is important

00:19:29.820 you did a great job that's a really great job uh we've been very successful in settling wars you

00:19:36.060 have india pakistan you have rwanda and the congo that was going on for 30 years india by the way

00:19:42.580 and pakistan would have been a nuclear war within another week the way that was going that was going

00:19:46.820 very badly and we did that through trade i said we're not going to talk to you about trade unless

00:19:51.920 you get this thing settled and they did and they were both great great leaders

00:19:55.020 and they were great but uh rwanda and the congo that was going on for 30 years

00:20:01.720 and at least 7 million people killed and killed with a lot of pretty rough weapons like machetes

00:20:10.620 heads chopped off uh going on for many years you couldn't even get near the countries nobody wanted

00:20:16.820 to get near it so frightening and we got that one solved serbia kosovo got that solved

00:20:24.200 that was going to be one that was going to happen and again that was something i use i use straight

00:20:29.960 for a lot of things but it's great for settling wars uh that was really very important we're working

00:20:36.400 marco is working very hard with everybody here on the strip the gaza strip i call it the gaza strip

00:20:44.180 one of the worst real estate deals ever made they gave up the oceanfront property one of the worst deals

00:20:50.000 ever made but it was supposed to bring peace and it didn't bring peace it brought the opposite but

00:20:55.320 we're doing pretty well on gaza steve whitkoff is here and i think we could have something fairly soon

00:21:01.660 to talk about and we solved another one one that we just seem to have armenia and azar

00:21:11.360 baijan it looks like that's going to come to a conclusion successful conclusion uh we worked on

00:21:19.680 egypt with our next door neighbor who uh it's a good neighbor they're friends of mine but they

00:21:24.920 happened to build a dam which closed up water going into a thing called the nile i think if i'm egypt

00:21:32.660 i want to have water in the nile and we're working on that one problem but it's going to get solved

00:21:39.880 they built one of the biggest dams in the world a little bit outside of egypt you know about that

00:21:46.020 you've been hearing about that one i think the united states funded the dam i don't know why they

00:21:50.600 didn't solve the problem before they built the dam but it's nice when the nile river has water

00:21:55.380 they you know it's a very important source of income in life it's the life of egypt and to take

00:22:01.600 that away is pretty incredible but we uh think we're going to have that solved very quickly so we do good

00:22:08.160 the only one we haven't been able to get to yet is russia i'm not happy and i will tell you that

00:22:14.960 ukraine wants to do something again it's a war that should have never started if i were president

00:22:19.980 it never would have happened i used to speak to president putin about it a lot it was the apple

00:22:24.200 of his eye but once i saw what was going on i said you know they're going to have a war here

00:22:30.260 i was outside election was rigged and i was outside looking in and i said you know that thing's

00:22:36.820 going to be a war couldn't believe it because what biden said was the exact opposite of what

00:22:41.680 should have been said and it started and it's a real mess we're losing i guess they're losing five

00:22:48.700 or six thousand people there's actually now more i used to i was saying five thousand there's actually

00:22:54.340 more now mostly soldiers but a lot of people in cities and towns that are getting blown up to

00:22:59.340 it's a horrible war and it should be stopped and so if it's not done if we don't have an agreement

00:23:04.780 in 50 days that's what we're doing secondary uh tariffs and they're biting and i hope we don't

00:23:12.180 get to the point where we do but i've been hearing so much talk it's all talk it's all talk and then

00:23:18.380 missiles go into kiev and kill 60 people uh it's uh it's gotta stop it's gotta stop but uh the purpose

00:23:27.840 of this is to say that uh there's a very big deal we've made this is billions of dollars worth of

00:23:33.280 military equipment is going to be purchased from the united states going to nato etc

00:23:38.140 and uh that's going to be quickly distributed to uh the battlefield uh ukraine will take it up and

00:23:46.140 you know say what you want about ukraine uh when the war started they had no chance and

00:23:51.560 they still would have had no chance if the equipment they they had the best equipment because we do make

00:23:57.240 the best planes and missiles and we make the best military equipment in the world world by far

00:24:03.600 we have new things coming out that are beyond belief and i'm very excited about the golden dome it's

00:24:10.100 going to give us very strong protection we're we've already started that but but uh but they had

00:24:17.780 courage because somebody has to use that equipment and they fought with tremendous courage and they

00:24:22.600 continue to fight with tremendous courage but uh they don't have uh they're losing on equipment

00:24:27.740 and russia's really taken a very positive very very uh strong i mean what they've done the last

00:24:35.260 couple of weeks without military reasons that's what they're doing it's a hundred drones a day

00:24:39.520 missiles uh bombing cities this is not because of military uh goals it is just creating panic

00:24:46.600 uh keeping people out of their sleeves hitting towns it's really terrible and it is meaning a lot

00:24:52.160 of people lose their lives but also the infrastructure whole cities being well they're wiping out the

00:24:57.440 electric it's going to take years to rebuild it that's going to be the next problem because

00:25:03.160 but that's going to take a long time cities many of the cities are knocked down to the to the ground

00:25:08.620 many of the people have left but many stayed i don't know they they actually stay most have stayed

00:25:15.040 actually it's incredible that they stay and knowing that a missile could be hitting your apartment

00:25:19.940 house and your apartment house that you're sitting in could collapse on top of you and they do very

00:25:25.640 heavy construction they don't use rebar they do very thick concrete constructionists and those are

00:25:30.400 heavy buildings big buildings and heavy buildings and they collapse uh like like they're made out of

00:25:36.560 paper it's unbelievable to see this happening with people so many people being killed so

00:25:40.840 we think we're going to make progress and we hope we're going to make progress in the meantime we're

00:25:46.000 going to get you good service on what you need and then we really became friendly with nato this last

00:25:51.440 meeting you know we went from two percent to five percent which everyone said was not even a

00:25:56.480 possibility they weren't paying two percent many of them were paying much less than two percent but

00:26:00.620 even those since you became president all committed to the two percent before the summit and now

00:26:04.920 collectively we committed to the five percent that's right they did they've been uh very good and

00:26:09.200 and i think i made a lot of friends over there we had a couple of days of very intensive talks

00:26:13.980 and they're great people they're leaders of countries leaders of countries uh many of them

00:26:19.300 great countries some of them smaller countries but for the most part that's a very solid strong

00:26:24.840 countries and uh very successful some of them are among the most successful countries in the world

00:26:30.940 so that's the story we hope that's going to have an impact on vladimir putin and we hope it's

00:26:38.460 going to have an impact impact on ukraine also we want to make sure that ukraine does what they

00:26:43.740 have to do all of a sudden they have they may feel emboldened or maybe they don't want you know

00:26:48.040 this is a very difficult situation ukraine wants a peace deal i think so and they will stay committed

00:26:54.640 to that there's no doubt they want it but the russians have to be they have to continue to want

00:26:58.520 it though yeah i agree we will you and i will make sure of that all of a sudden they get no

00:27:02.540 you and i will make sure we'll we'll make sure i feel confident that they will

00:27:06.020 do what has to be done plus we have certain parameters that both sides know

00:27:10.160 and we already know what what should be done so i think that's going to be uh it's going to be

00:27:16.420 very strong we want everlasting peace uh any questions for us yes thank you mr president what was the tipping

00:27:22.640 point for you in making this decision was it a conversation with president putin was it a piece of

00:27:26.860 intelligence and why are you giving 50 more days i think well i think it's a very short period of

00:27:32.200 time i think don't forget i've just really been involved in this but not very long and uh and it

00:27:38.260 wasn't initial focus this is again this is a biden war this is a democrat war not a republican or trump

00:27:44.180 war this is a war that would have never happened it shouldn't have happened a lot of people being

00:27:49.000 killed when the uh when the final numbers come in you're going to see a lot more people are being

00:27:54.660 killed in this war than than you think than you've been writing about it's a very deadly war very

00:28:00.120 they're all bad but this is a very deadly war very the numbers are going to be far greater when an

00:28:05.260 apartment house comes down and they say two people were slightly injured no many people were killed

00:28:11.500 and those numbers will be at some point accurately reported so far they're not it's a deadly war

00:28:17.360 uh i think that uh you're just going to see i think you're going to see strong movement i hope so

00:28:23.540 i hope so you know the uh secondary tariffs are very very powerful what about the tariffs that

00:28:30.920 the republicans in the house and the senate have ready those are 500 percent why are you doing 100

00:28:36.140 well the republicans are moving very strongly in the senate giving us total control of it but

00:28:42.940 uh i'm not sure we need it but it's certainly good that they're doing it and lindsay graham's

00:28:49.660 working hard the whole region all of them they're all working hard and and they're in coordination

00:28:54.940 with mike johnson uh speaker in the house and i think they are they've actually crafted a pretty good

00:29:02.540 piece of legislation it's probably going to pass very easily and that includes democrats

00:29:07.820 and there's some little tweaks but uh i don't want to say i don't need it because i don't want

00:29:13.560 them to waste their time it could be very useful we'll have to see but we can do uh we can do

00:29:18.400 secondary we're probably talking about 100 or something like that we can do secondary we can

00:29:24.560 do secondary tariffs without the senate without the house but what they're crafting also could be

00:29:31.640 very good so are you suggesting then that the the congress should move forward with those

00:29:35.960 sanctions the 500 and that your 100 would be a separate additional package yeah i mean the 500

00:29:42.120 is you know sort of meaningless after a while because at a certain point it doesn't matter it's

00:29:47.280 not going to be you know it's 100 100 is going to serve the same function but um yeah i have it at

00:29:54.300 100 they may have it i don't know what they're going to end up with they may have it at 102 they may

00:29:59.040 have it at 500 but they're doing some good work in the house and i think in the house and the senate

00:30:04.580 and as you know they're coordinated and they can have it done quickly they said they'll have it as

00:30:10.720 quickly as i need it so we'll see we're talking to him in fact john thune's coming over later on to

00:30:15.840 talk yeah he's gonna he's gonna come over thank you mr president is it your view that vladimir putin

00:30:22.060 misguided miss miss uh misguided miss um did not clarify did not clarify his intention to a peace

00:30:35.380 deal and what what happens now in the next phase is there we're gonna have to go for a period of time

00:30:42.160 maybe you'll start negotiating and i think we felt i felt i don't know about you mark but i felt that we

00:30:48.960 had a deal about four times and here we are still talking about and he didn't send serious people to

00:30:56.140 the negotiation so i remember that you were able with uh marco rubio and with steve vitkoff to get

00:31:02.500 these talks going in istanbul i remember i was myself in turkey for nature business in may

00:31:08.020 and we put really good pressure on the ukrainians to send a senior team into istanbul and they did

00:31:14.100 but then the russians came up with this historian explaining history of russia since 1250

00:31:20.780 we thought and i thought we should have had a deal done a long time ago but it just keeps going on and

00:31:30.000 on and on and every night people are dying a lot of people a lot of russian soldiers are dying by the

00:31:36.220 way and a lot of ukrainian soldiers too but a lot of russian soldiers 100 000 russian soldiers since

00:31:42.620 first of january since january 100 000 russian soldiers dead since january so if anybody in

00:31:48.860 moscow is listening to this again 100 000 dead russians in january this is what president putin is

00:31:55.380 doing at the moment yeah please will these be patriot missiles specifically or patriot batteries that

00:32:02.260 you're planning and when you when you're everything it's patriots it's all of them

00:32:05.860 it's a full complement with the batteries and when you expect them to arrive in ukraine

00:32:10.780 well we're going to have some come very soon within days actually because a couple of the

00:32:16.020 countries that have patriots are going to swap over and will replace the patriots with the ones they

00:32:21.780 have and matt will coordinate with nato but so it's going to be they're going to start arriving

00:32:27.900 very very soon this afternoon boris pistorius the german defense minister is visiting pete haxett

00:32:33.820 the secret of defense and we'll discuss also i think on this whole patriot thing norway is involved

00:32:38.620 so that's on the patriots but this whole deal is also about missiles or ammunition so it's a broader

00:32:44.380 than the patriots we have one country that has 17 patriots getting ready to be shipped they're not

00:32:50.220 going to need them for them so we're going to work a deal where the 17 will go or a big portion of

00:32:55.740 the 17th we'll go to the war setting mr president mr president could this transaction with nato be

00:33:05.900 viewed as a step towards achieving peace letting putin know that now uh zelinski has a little bit

00:33:12.780 more powerful tools in his tool chest and maybe that brings him to the table to achieve peace because

00:33:17.580 i know that you wanted to do that brian that's what we've been saying i think you might have expressed

00:33:22.220 it better if you wanted the truth exactly that was a summary that was a nice summary i think he's

00:33:28.140 done better than us he's he's a very good guy i can tell you that but uh no it's well well said yeah

00:33:35.100 i think this is a chance at getting peace or it's just going to be the same thing i have to tell you

00:33:43.100 europe has a lot of spirit for this war a lot of people you know when i first got involved i really

00:33:49.580 didn't think they did but they do and i saw that a month ago and you were there most of you many of

00:33:55.260 you were there the level of uh esprit de corps spirit that they have is amazing they really think it's a

00:34:04.860 very very important uh thing to do or they wouldn't be doing look they're agreeing to just you know

00:34:09.900 they're paying for everything we're not paying anymore we were we have an ocean separating us they

00:34:14.860 said we have a problem we make the best stuff but we can't keep doing this and biden should have done

00:34:20.540 this years ago he should have done it from the beginning but he didn't he didn't know he was there

00:34:25.660 this guy wanted what what a horrible job they did for this country and i just hope between the

00:34:31.820 border and this and so many other inflation what a horrible administration the worst administration

00:34:38.380 in history in my opinion that's not my opinion i think it's everybody's opinion but this is something

00:34:43.580 that shouldn't have happened and we're going to see if we can end it if i do want to make one

00:34:49.100 statement again i said it before this is not trump's war we're here to try and get it finished and

00:34:56.460 settled and whatever because nobody wins with this this is a loser from every standpoint from this was

00:35:03.580 biden and this was other people and uh it's very sad it's very sad situation this gentleman is doing a

00:35:12.220 great job he's gonna i think he's gonna get it and matt and everybody else that's working on it i think

00:35:17.020 you'll get this thing over with hope mr president you've praised european countries today as standing

00:35:23.260 up for ukraine as being strong will you uh allow them to continue to negotiate tariffs lower than 30

00:35:28.540 percent before august 1st or is the deal set at this point what does that mean you mean you're talking

00:35:32.860 about the territory oh you're back on tariffs they're on a more friendly tariff right a little

00:35:39.660 bit more friendly perhaps no we're going to be talking to people we have you know i watched the

00:35:46.300 show this one they were talking about well when's he going to make the deal the deals are already made

00:35:49.660 the letters are the deals the deals are made there are no deals to make they would like to do a

00:35:55.180 different kind of a deal and we're always open to talk we are open to talk including to europe

00:35:59.980 in fact they're coming over they'd like to talk to us mr president is there any concern about the u.s

00:36:05.980 stockpiles there was a pause in delivery of uh weaponry to ukraine in order to evaluate apparently

00:36:13.500 the u.s stockpiles what came out of that evaluation i mean this was a very big what we're talking about

00:36:19.580 today is a very very big day and uh what pete was doing and me too i knew what pete was doing

00:36:27.340 uh was evaluation because we knew this was going to happen and now we actually announced it they

00:36:33.820 voted on it it's all been done so obviously that has a big impact on you know when you say pause

00:36:41.340 obviously you're not going to be doing things if you don't know what's going to happen here

00:36:44.860 but we were pretty sure this was going to happen so we did a little bit of a pause

00:36:48.860 but this is a very big this is a very big event today this is something

00:36:52.620 mr president if it escalates further how far are you willing to go in response

00:36:57.660 in what in what how far are you willing to go if putin were to escalate

00:37:01.580 send more bombs in the coming days don't ask me a question like that how far i don't know

00:37:05.340 i i want to get the war settled they're not americans that are dying in it and you know i have a problem

00:37:11.100 and jd has a problem it's a stance that he's had for a long time they're not americans dying but

00:37:16.540 uh there are a lot of people dying and on something that should be able to be settled

00:37:21.500 and we all agree with that this group of people that you know we want to defend our country but

00:37:27.500 you know ultimately having a strong europe is a very good thing it's a very good thing so i'm okay

00:37:33.740 with that yeah please in the back yeah is there a ceiling on what the europeans are willing to pay

00:37:37.580 for and it sounds like are you ruling out the u.s paying for some from additional weapons through

00:37:42.460 drawdown authority because basically what the president is saying that he's willing of course

00:37:49.260 taking consideration what the u.s needs itself so it's not that you can have a shopping list and

00:37:53.980 you can order whatever you want because the u.s has to make sure that the u.s keeps its hands on what

00:37:58.940 the u.s needs also to keep the whole world safe because in the end you are the police agent of the

00:38:02.940 whole world you're the most powerful nation on earth most powerful military on earth but given that

00:38:08.700 the u.s has decided to indeed massively supply ukraine with what is necessary through nato europeans 100

00:38:15.660 paying for that and what we have been doing over the last couple of days is talking with countries

00:38:20.380 and i just mentioned to once who in a first wave immediately said we want to chip in and then you

00:38:25.500 are talking really talking about big numbers take germany visiting today they're really talking about

00:38:31.100 big numbers um i spoke with germany spoke with most of the larger countries and they are really

00:38:42.380 enthusiastic about this they want to and you know they're willing to go very far i will tell you

00:38:46.940 you know as per your question how far would i go they they want to go very far they don't want

00:38:52.060 this to happen that's why i think from putin's standpoint it would really be good he gets the

00:38:56.700 country's economy is doing very poorly and he's got to get his economy back he's got to save his

00:39:01.660 economy he could save his country in a sense but the economy can destroy destroyed a lot of countries

00:39:08.060 over the years he wants to get that economy back and you know he's got a great country for trading and

00:39:12.780 other things if they could use the assets instead of war uh he's got some tremendous potential that's

00:39:17.980 what i would say how did you deliver this news to putin sir how did you tell putin this was coming

00:39:23.260 uh i speak to him a lot about getting this thing done and i always hang up say well that was a nice

00:39:32.140 phone call and then missiles launched into kiev or some other city and i said strange and after that

00:39:38.540 happens three or four times you say the talk doesn't mean anything my conversations with them are always

00:39:45.660 very pleasant i say isn't that a very lovely conversation and then the missiles go off that night

00:39:50.940 i go home i tell the first lady and i spoke to vladimir today we had a wonderful conversation

00:39:57.580 she said oh really uh another city was just hit so it's like look he's uh i don't want to say he's

00:40:06.540 an assassin but he's a tough guy it's been proven over the years he's fooled a lot of people he fooled

00:40:12.860 bush he fooled a lot of people he fooled clinton bush obama biden he didn't fool me but what i

00:40:19.500 do say is that uh at a certain point you know ultimately talk doesn't

00:40:35.420 do you know what's happening okay it's frozen from the white house we're going to go back

00:40:44.380 to the oval office there we go let's go right back to it we got another feed go and jump back in

00:40:48.220 look at what's happened so there was a threat in 50 days yeah i mean we'll be hit very hard

00:40:53.820 i mean look i hope he's i hope he's going to do it he knows the deal he knows what a fair deal is

00:41:02.380 if there is such a thing as a fair deal they can know there's no winners here this is a loser

00:41:07.500 this is a loser and i dealt with him from the beginning and it wouldn't have happened but i

00:41:11.980 will say it was ukraine was the apple of his eye we talk about it it was the apple of his eye

00:41:18.140 but it wasn't going to happen and he understood that it wasn't going to happen and then i noticed

00:41:23.100 after i was out i noticed soldiers forming at the border and then i heard horribly stupid things being

00:41:29.900 said from the other side and i said they're really uh handling it very very wrong it's a shame yeah

00:41:38.700 one thing and it is about president trump because you can offer in january on the 12 of february

00:41:43.180 you had your first phone call with putin i think you did exactly what i hope you would do that is

00:41:48.300 breaking the deadlock starting the conversation because you have to test him i know putin very well

00:41:53.420 from the days i was prime minister and then once you have to test him and you did this and you really

00:41:57.580 gave him a chance to be serious to get to the table to start negotiations steve ridkov marco

00:42:02.300 who we all tried to help but you've now come to a point where you say well hey we actually thought

00:42:07.900 we had probably four times a deal yeah i mean you would have called and said this looks good yeah and

00:42:14.380 then the deal wouldn't happen because bombs would be thrown out that night and you'd say we're not

00:42:18.140 making any deals it was like but you're making the devil was crucial because you had to start that

00:42:24.460 process and you were the only one who was able to do that i think we'll get it done do you think

00:42:27.660 he's reasonable enough to negotiate an end to this i think we're going to get it done i think look

00:42:34.940 this is a very powerful situation you have very wealthy countries buying the best equipment in the

00:42:40.540 world and we have the best equipment in the world we make equipment like no other you know our submarines

00:42:47.580 nuclear submarines are so powerful they're most powerful weapon ever built and we have the best in

00:42:55.980 the world by they're 20 years behind 25 years behind us we have the greatest equipment anywhere in the

00:43:02.940 world i just hope we don't have to use it yeah please thank you mr president um on a separate topic

00:43:08.380 here uh president biden of all people spoke to the new york times over the weekend he did not speak to

00:43:15.180 them on the record during his time in office at all but he spoke to them recently and he defended his

00:43:20.060 use of the auto pen and said that he signed off on every decision but at the same time the times

00:43:25.740 reports that he did not individually approve each name for the categorical pardons that applied to

00:43:31.340 large numbers of people what is your take on that any new revelations from that well i mean you're talking

00:43:37.180 about the auto pen look the auto pen i think is maybe one of the biggest scandals that we've had in

00:43:44.060 50 to 100 years this is a tremendous scandal and i know the people on the other side

00:43:50.860 of the you see that desk that resolute desk unfortunately he used it before me but you

00:43:56.860 know we have our choice of seven desks they're all beautiful but i chose the resolute and so did he

00:44:03.500 unfortunately but the people on the other side of the resolute desk i know them lisa the whole group and

00:44:12.300 they're no good they're sick people and i guarantee you he knew nothing about what he was signing

00:44:20.460 i guarantee it so they're going to figure it out and we'll see what happens but to me the auto pen you

00:44:26.700 know you elected president you know what the auto pen is supposed to do sign thousands of letters from

00:44:33.580 young people that write i get we get thousands of letters a week susie right thousands

00:44:39.260 i mean tens of thousands sometimes i look at a room there's a room where we have many many people

00:51:47.980 audiences i can tell by the chat uh are a little bit in shock uh ben harnwell a couple things number one

00:51:54.860 it's both now it's from a part of it's from a standoff basis and that is the escalatory nature

00:52:02.700 of the military equipment he is pretty adamant we're not providing this we're not going to run up on

00:52:07.820 debt we're selling this we're selling this to the uh to nato to the nato allies rute seem and not

00:52:17.100 ambivalent i didn't exactly get a hey yeah these countries are buying this and this is what they're

00:52:21.660 paying but the president's pretty adamant we're not supplying uh particularly offensive weaponry

00:52:28.220 and even defensive we're not giving them anything this is being bought by nato um but he did say

00:52:35.420 to start off with is the sanctions in secondary sanctions and secondary sanctions are direct

00:52:42.140 economic warfare i'm a big believer in sanctions and i think they work and they can work um

00:52:48.060 um they can be very strong i this is the way i think we bring the persians if you want regime

00:52:54.300 change you want the people to uh regime change to come from the people do it with sanctions and

00:52:59.340 secondary sanctions and cutting off their capital but he announced in 50 days there'll be i think

00:53:04.620 additional tariffs on russia although we we don't buy we don't purchase a lot from russia uh the eu does

00:53:11.980 uh because of the natural gas but um he said secondary sanctions secondary sanctions we get

00:53:17.740 any trading party that would be the chinese communist party so i gotta we gotta work through

00:53:21.020 this after the show as he's saying he's gonna put 100 tariff on the ccp who trade for them that's

00:53:26.860 all gonna be worked out he did president trump did sound like all of a sudden he kept saying this

00:53:33.100 is not trump's war this is not trump's war he's absolutely correct this is one of the things we've

00:53:38.380 we've on the show said over and over again this is not trump's war that's why you got to either get

00:53:42.780 in there trying to make a deal if you can't make a deal just cut bait because if you go down this path

00:53:48.060 you may say it's not trump's war and it hasn't been up till now but you get into the sense of even if

00:53:53.580 you're selling them you know if you if a russian mother and father uh denoted their kid was killed on

00:53:59.900 the battlefield with an american with american weaponries are going to miss the nuance that nato bought it uh

00:54:06.140 and uh and the americans didn't give it if a uh offensive if offensive missiles strike the

00:54:12.540 suburbs of moscow and take out a couple of city blocks the russian people who are our greatest ally in

00:54:18.300 world war ii are going to miss the uh subtlety of the point that that that missile was paid for by estonia

00:54:25.500 uh and this is all where it will come become trump's war as sure as the turning of the earth they'll stick

00:54:30.060 it to him and nato will want to stick it to him because they'll want him as an active combatant

00:54:34.540 now obviously on the economic side you're now getting engaged more than ever with the secondary

00:54:40.780 sanctions potential in 50 days and you can tell president trump believes that the uh he can bring

00:54:47.020 this to a head in in 50 days uh ben harnwell and and coming back from that nato trip where the where

00:54:54.140 they talked about increasing the thing we said he was very moved you could tell him by that um nothing

00:54:59.580 really should have nothing really should have changed the ukraine war is a european war it is

00:55:05.340 a european war let me go back in history and make sure everybody in this audience understands something

00:55:10.860 and the trump folks over the administration understand something from 1939

00:55:18.380 until even after the vermont went in a barbarossa in june of 1941 but all the way up to pearl harbor

00:55:25.100 that part of it was a european war when the japanese attacked us at pearl harbor on december 7th

00:55:34.540 that night in the white house just go read all the histories about it which i've read basically

00:55:39.100 anything that's important there was discussion the next day about when they went to congress

00:55:46.220 to ask for a declaration of war against japan they worded it very very precisely a state of war

00:55:53.900 existed because japan had attacked us you know while they were negotiating with the state department

00:56:00.620 the worst of the worst correct the there was discussion about do we declare war in germany at

00:56:06.380 the same time and it was the politicians and folks were adamant no we're not going to declare war in

00:56:12.220 germany that's a european war as much as the british have been trying to drag us into it and the british

00:56:17.260 were actively trying to drag us into it and church from these guys admitted it um on december 8th we

00:56:23.420 did not declare war on nazi germany remember that they don't ever mention that in the history books

00:56:28.140 we did not declare war on that's on nazi germany why it was a european war and the american people

00:56:34.540 particularly the tendencies of the american people to want to take care of things at home

00:56:39.260 said okay fine the japanese attacked us we're at state of war with japan they had a vote i think

00:56:44.860 only one member of the house uh did not vote for it but they phrased as a state of war exists boom

00:56:51.260 but we did not clear war on nazi germany hitler made a conscious decision i think two or three days

00:56:56.300 later because of a secret treaty they had with the japanese and thinking that the americans wouldn't

00:57:01.580 fight or that we were too weak or too cowardly to actually get engaged in what was a bloodletting

00:57:08.300 on project on operation barbarossa and guess where the bloodlands of where we're talking about today

00:57:14.140 that the americans would never do that he declared war on the united states ever since the moment he

00:57:20.220 declared war in the united states everybody in washington dc the the beginning of the imperial

00:57:24.540 capital focus on germany first the whole strategy shifted germany first the pacific became a secondary

00:57:30.940 thought the bloody war in the pacific right and there was tons of complaints from people why are we

00:57:35.660 not focused on the japanese why are they always late to get reinforcements why are they always late

00:57:39.900 particularly since the strategy of the folks post-civil war was an american strategy based on the

00:57:46.780 central pacific and even then the three island chain that's why we became even became thought

00:57:51.500 about becoming imperial power in the philippines and other places by uh by going to war with spain

00:57:58.540 so this is uh we're in the same situation now and this is we have to be very careful president

00:58:04.460 trump and he snapped at the guy who asked the question we asked earlier hey i see you're selling

00:58:09.980 this you go up the escalatory ladder what happens that doesn't work what's next and he was not happy

00:58:14.860 with that question he snapped at the guy don't ask that question understanding president trump has you

00:58:20.060 know many alternatives he's looking at it's not going to lay his car on the table now he did come back

00:58:24.140 and address it somewhat later but ben harnwell uh this is the the nato and the europeans and zelinski

00:58:31.980 and and and that the collection of crooks that work for zelinski want to do nothing more their

00:58:38.620 number one objective is to hang this on trump and make this trump's war make this america's war

00:58:44.860 because then once you go up the escalatory ladder on uh on military aid you continue to open up the

00:58:51.020 the spigots for financial aid which they can skim their 20 off the top and eventually you're going to

00:58:56.060 get just like in the 12-day war you're going to get you know you're providing defense and you're

00:59:00.860 providing personnel to run the defense operations next thing you know you're in offensive uh you're

00:59:06.700 in offensive war over there there are number zelinski's number one priority is to make sure

00:59:14.220 that he can put the handle on this of trump's war and president trump over and over again said this is

00:59:19.020 not my war i've tried to settle this we thought we had four or five times deals uh putin has not been

00:59:24.380 straightforward ben we got a break mike ben's more john solomon huge breaking news on that the

00:59:30.460 auto pen uh just brought up there one question uh biden gives an on the record which he never did in

00:59:36.060 four years of the presidency of new york times think about that for a second that's how that's how

00:59:40.300 demented that's the dementia was all over him basically says well yeah they used the auto pen but

00:59:44.940 i knew everybody they were doing but please don't ask me who they signed the pardons for that means the

00:59:48.620 pardons are no good and it's katie bar the door now because people are going to be rolling um tons

00:59:55.180 of information there ben harnwell we get about two minutes your thoughts before we punch um look the

01:00:01.980 the argument the thesis is that nato was really keen to do this right uh and that's what they they

01:00:08.460 they spun out in the oval office my question steve is that if nato is so keen to be buying us produced

01:00:15.820 arms why does it need to be brokered by donald trump sitting in the oval office why does mark

01:00:21.580 root need to come over to dc and have this done from the oval office well the reason is exactly

01:00:27.660 the thesis that you're lying out they are dragging donald trump into this wall right that is the

01:00:33.980 point that's the whole point about the theatrics today this is this is nato this is the europeans

01:00:39.340 dragging like on a fishing hook donald trump into this war and he's saying he we both we both

01:00:45.580 of us independently made this note that he said repeatedly not this is not trump's war the question

01:00:51.500 is steve is how is that going to land with the base and i can tell you look i've got 30 seconds

01:00:56.780 i can tell you it's not oh with the base the base 100 against no the base it's beyond that though it's

01:01:02.380 the base 100 against us there's so many more complicated issues the base is going to have a

01:01:07.100 major role in this i got to bounce real quickly you're you're uh where do people get you ben

01:01:11.420 on getter at harnwell let's not bury the lead what did rute say his one moment of truth there with

01:01:20.540 all the spin well america is the world's police you're the police agent for the world see their

01:01:27.740 mentality no the answer is that is incorrect we're about america first we're not the cop on the beat for

01:01:34.940 the entire world they still believe that he said it the one truth of a moment rute had in that entire

01:01:42.300 thing was he said well you're the cop you're the you're the police agent for the entire world the

01:01:46.220 whole world au contraire
