00:01:09.880So, you know, I think this idea of them not being able to break out of a certain mindset, you know, all all these PhDs over there.
00:01:18.080I don't know what they do. I don't know what they do.
00:01:20.120This is like universal basic income for academic economists.
00:01:28.760For the audience, I know the audience thrives on action, as you should.
00:01:32.580You're the tip of the spear, the action-oriented part, the activist base that makes things happen, have historically made things happen and have led Trump, President Trump, been the foundational element of his magnificent wins.
00:01:44.560You have two people I want to specifically discuss.
00:01:49.860That is Tulsi Gabbard and Scott Besson.
00:01:52.320As you know, from years on the show, and Besson in particular, these are safe pair of hands.
00:01:58.600These are not people that run around with their hair on fire.
00:02:21.820I said, and I repeat this, the three most powerful institutions, I believe, in the imperial capital, in the imperial project, are the CIA, the Federal Reserve, and CENTCOM.
00:02:32.100Kind of the brains, the money, the brains in the network, the money in the muscle.
00:02:43.120Right now, you have two of these individuals.
00:02:46.060You have Tulsi Gabbard is really on a crusade to go after the CIA and the problem of the deep state, the intelligence communities, both foreign and domestic.
00:02:58.060And I include in there MI6 and Mossad.
00:03:00.060But, okay, not just the five Is, the CIA, the MI6, although the British Empire has dramatically dropped as far as economic and financial power, given the power and reach of their empire, given what they did for the education process of bringing people back to Oxford and Cambridge and all this education and have them live in London, the imperial capital.
00:03:27.220The British intelligence service is incredibly powerful.
00:04:19.460One of the reasons he was a contributor here for years, and I grew so close to Scott, now he's understanding capital markets.
00:04:26.360He does not, he's not, he doesn't skip around.
00:04:29.000He's, boom, he's very, very, very focused.
00:04:31.000And I thought would be the perfect Secretary of Treasury for President Trump, as he has, as it turned out, he has been.
00:04:38.440But right now, Scott Besson and President Trump basically are zeroing in on the Federal Reserve.
00:04:44.740And what Scott said there last, yes, this morning, which is so powerful, it's not simply about an individual, Jay Powell, who's obviously seriously flawed.
00:06:10.060It was one of the greatest periods of wealth creation and prosperity in the history of the world with no central bank.
00:06:15.480So that by itself shows you don't need a central bank, number one.
00:06:18.680Number two, Paul Krugman, he's a little kind of marginalized these days, but for decades he was saying, you know, we need a central bank to prevent financial panics.
00:06:27.260I did a study that showed financial panics when we did not have a central bank and financial panics when we did have a central bank.
00:11:16.920If you're not yet a chairman or CEO, or maybe if you're a younger person, or let's just say that you're not really on the corporate track, why is strategic intelligence a must-read?
00:11:27.020Why should people – what's the case for someone that's not on a career track that needs this information because it helps them in their job, it helps them understand the world?
00:11:35.420What's the case for somebody that's not on that career track to get this newsletter?
00:19:11.380Matt Brainerd, you know Matt, has been on the show many times as a political consultant and operative.
00:19:16.560He's one of the advisors to the party.
00:19:17.960Ben Harnwell from Rome, this is the professor saying, hey, the Japanese government needs a big home run from Trump to help him out here.
00:19:27.560I'm not so sure Trump's going to be doing coach pitch.
00:19:32.180He wants a meaningful deal and a good deal for the United States on the tariffs.
00:19:36.500So, I think this is so important, not just against the CCP and what's happening geopolitically, but also economically and geo-economically.
00:19:46.620The Japanese government have kind of just – they've had now three decades of lost generation.
00:19:53.440And the people in Japan, particularly younger people, have just kind of had a belly full of it.
00:20:01.240Well, just to come off the closing point there, Steve, actually the majority of this – of the lead of this new party, Sohei Kamiat,
00:20:13.740that the majority of this – what actually comes from young men, young 20- and 30-year-old men.
00:20:18.420So, it's specifically disillusioned youth on the male side of the spectrum, flagging up the point that you just mentioned.
00:20:27.420And the geopolitical considerations obviously can't be overestimated because, as you mentioned, the Chinese situation, also the Trump tariff situation.
00:20:37.380There's the August 1st deadline there.
00:20:39.620This government now is massively weakened.
00:20:41.920It has – the coalition has a minority in both the upper house and the lower house.
00:20:47.100It has had a minority in the lower house since the lower chamber elections last autumn.
00:20:53.140Steve, the immediate points to draw out from this are the fact that this is explicitly, I would say, a rejection of the present governing coalition,
00:22:36.940It's really – this victory has really normalised – I would say for the first time since the Second World War.
00:22:43.140It's normalised in the Japan context, using the air quotes, obviously, a far-right political party phenomenon.
00:22:52.120And this party explicitly models itself on the AFD in Germany, and it's set out now to build these reports with the various populist nationalist iterations right across the world.
00:23:08.760Matt Brainerd, the disaffected young men, because Japan has not addressed – you have a real warrior spirit there, a real warrior ethos.
00:23:29.960What led this revolt of young men to actually get involved in politics, which they had not been, to drive this stunning upset last night?
00:23:37.760Well, you know, much like the MAGA movement here in the United States, it was really two things.
00:23:42.800It was a government that was completely ignoring their needs, ignoring their priorities that was taking – they had put a surcharge on young people to help shift more money to the aging elderly population of that country.
00:23:56.840And there's all kinds of other policies that the incumbent government has done to sort of maintain the status quo and to be more business-friendly, like opening the doors to foreigners that have nothing in common with Japan, don't speak the language, and have increased crime in the country, frankly, in a country that is pristine and one of the safest in the Western world.
00:24:15.680And what you see is that this is a continuation of what's happened after World War II, where basically the country was, for lack of a better word, neutered.
00:24:25.480It became, in some ways, a colony of the West of the United States.
00:24:28.560And finally, you have some people waking up saying, look, we don't want this woke nonsense.
00:24:32.880We don't want the United States under Joe Biden forcing us to accept homosexual marriage, which was not popular there.
00:24:38.900But again, it was Rahm Emanuel as the ambassador to Japan said, hey, you've got to do this if you want, you know, continued support from the Biden administration.
00:24:46.260So this party is saying none – we're not having any of that.
00:24:49.980But beyond that, they also have an incredibly charismatic leader.
00:24:52.560You know, if you look at the typical elected official in Japan, you kind of get Jeb Bush energy, right?
00:24:58.180They're just – they're very buttoned down, they're very soft-spoken, and they don't have the kind of energy that you would see in, like, a charismatic leader here in the United States like Donald Trump.
00:25:06.860But all that changed when Sohai Kamiya stepped into the leadership and took – and began the Senseido Party, which began in opposition to COVID lockdown, saying, look, we don't want a mask.
00:25:17.500We don't want to be locked in our homes.
00:25:18.760We don't want to be forced to take this vaccine in the same way we had an anti-vaccine movement start here in the United States.
00:25:25.600In Japan, it became a political party, and it just expanded to becoming this very MAGA-style populist right-wing party.
00:25:43.880But they effectively came in second place in this election.
00:25:47.020And their trajectory is only going to be upward for a couple of reasons.
00:25:51.140First, there are some smaller right-wing parties, and they will all now begin to consolidate behind Senseido.
00:25:57.060Like, another party got about 5 percent that has a very similar platform.
00:26:00.800And there are conservative elements of LDP that have been breaking away from the leadership since it started to lurch leftward, since the loss of Shinzo Abe.
00:26:08.420But beyond that, there's campaign finance in Japan, which works very differently than it does here in the United States.
00:26:15.340So the amount of money that a political party has to spend on campaigning is tied to how many seats they have currently.
00:26:23.280So the more seats you have, the more money you have to campaign, which kind of continues a vicious circle, which is why LDP has been in power since World War II.
00:26:31.000But with just the power of political rallies, personal charisma, and YouTube, Senseido has come out of nowhere.
00:26:37.300But now with the seats they have, they now have a real budget to be able to push their message out further into the Japanese public.
00:26:43.320And finally, as the guest you had on before mentioned, there's a demographic problem for Japan that actually helps Senseido, because what's kept the incumbent party in power for so long is basically boomers, a very old and very large voting bloc in Japan.
00:26:59.960But they're moving on to the next world, and the younger people in Japan are very open to stepping away from LDP, from the traditional left-right uniparty that has governed Japan, and moving towards more parties like Senseido, because it captures that energy of the country, that warrior spirit, the way of the samurai that has been basically sanitized from post-war warlord Japan.
00:27:25.920In fact, the leader of Senseido, Sohai Kamiya, says he wants to destroy the last 80 years of globalist influence on Japan, restore it to its former glory.
00:27:34.740And he's the guy with the message and the charisma to deliver that.
00:27:38.300And you can see that in last night's results, and you can see it in how terrified all the left-wing NGOs and left-wing media are about the ascent of this party.
00:30:18.620One thing on cuts, you're going to see.
00:30:22.220So there's this huge controversy right now about your favorite topic, a CR, that would happen sometime before the 30th of September at midnight.
00:30:29.700President Trump is demanding – I don't think he's demanding – yeah, he's saying it strongly, but recommending to Thune they stay in session.
00:30:39.360The Senate stay in session to finish the appropriations bills.
00:30:42.040Also, to get his nominees done, the confirmations done, we're way behind on the confirmations.
00:30:47.500He got the top layer, but there's so many hundreds out there that it's falling behind.
00:30:56.300Russ vote, I think OMB, is getting ready for more rescissions packages, maybe impoundments, maybe pocket rescissions.
00:31:02.980There's going to be significant cuts, and I'm talking about the 2025 budget.
00:31:07.440They're working on the appropriations.
00:31:08.980If they take off, if they go on August recess, you're not going to have the appropriations bill passed.
00:31:13.980We'll have to do a CR, so that'll be a huge fight in September.
00:31:17.420I will tell you that Russ vote and the team over at OMB, I think, are putting together right now more aggressive rescissions packages and even impoundments on the 2025 budget and are also working on things on 2026.
00:31:31.860President Trump and his team over there is bound – they're determined to try to cut this budget as much as possible, cut this – what they feel is excessive spending that they couldn't take care of in the big, beautiful bill, given the mathematics of Capitol Hill.
00:32:17.400If you read those and study them, you'll learn a lot about not just how this government is financed but how capital markets work and basically why gold has been a hedge for 5,000 years in mankind's history.
00:32:55.580Mike knows better than anybody about this coup.
00:32:58.540Taze Gill, on a Monday to kick off the week, I need a – we don't have the afternoon show, although I am drinking coffee later and later in the day.
00:33:05.600I'm not – the decaf at Warpath is fantastic, although I don't drink decaf.
00:33:17.700I want them – I want the audience not to take it from Taze, not to take it from Steve, but to take it from their fellow compadres here at the War Room Posse, who now I think you have almost 12,000 five-star reviews.
00:33:30.720And what they say about it is amazing because that's our best – word of mouth is our best-selling tool here.
00:33:36.780Where do people go and what should they be looking for as far as what you've got over at Warpath?
00:33:43.920Yeah, the website is warpath.coffee, and then right now we're doing 20% off for the War Room Posse.
00:33:50.400And that's for the War Room Posse only, that 20% off.
00:33:53.280It's promo code WARROOM, and that gets you 20% off.
00:33:56.960And, you know, we've got K-Cups, we've got the dark roast, we've got the decaf, like Steve said.
00:34:02.040We just dropped that a couple weeks ago.
00:34:04.220And we've got a summer blend, which has Jamaica Blue Mountain beans in it, a little bit of it in there.
00:34:09.880And then we've got flavored coffees, we've got dark chocolate.
00:34:13.280We keep our holiday blend in stock year-round because we were running it only during the holidays, but people call us and email us year-round asking for us.
00:34:21.140So we do holiday blend all the time now.
00:34:23.360And then we've got mugs, and we've got travel tumblers, stainless steel travel tumblers.
00:35:56.400Okay, a couple of tactical and then overall, Steve.
00:35:59.280I think immediately, immediately the Department of Justice should suspend or revoke the passports of every single person that was in the national security component of the Obama regime and probably Biden, starting with Obama himself.
00:36:13.960I mean, do not allow these people to abscond from the United States of America, because some of them, I guarantee, are contemplating it because of what has been exposed.
00:36:23.960Number two, there should be a task force.
00:36:27.000If there's not one already, there should be a task force of federal officers that are put together.
00:36:34.320And, I mean, it should have happened over the weekend.
00:36:36.460But if it hasn't, Pam Bonney needs to put a federal law enforcement task force together right now.
00:36:41.640And they need to start looking at which homes they're going to raid, just like they raided Mar-a-Lago and President Trump.
00:36:48.360They need to start thinking about raiding Calorama.
00:36:51.020They need to start thinking about raiding some of these other people, because I guarantee they have in their own files in their homes more evidence that belongs to the U.S. government.
00:36:59.600And that evidence is going to come to light anyway, one way or the other.
00:37:03.180Number three, there are whistleblowers that I know have already stepped up to the plate, and some might be people who you don't, you know, who are those that are sort of, oh, my God, I didn't realize that this person would sing.
00:37:20.980So there are people that I know that are in the whistleblower category now that are going to help this case.
00:37:27.580We are looking at the potential, you know, because Obama was a commander-in-chief, right?
00:37:33.660So is there, you know, this, I'm not a lawyer, but I think that legally there should be some conversations at the Department of Justice and probably at the White House is whether or not that these conspiracy charges, these traitorous charges that have been stated by, certainly by Tulsi and by others, you know, even the president,
00:37:53.800with some of the information that he's been putting out over the last 48 hours, should there be some type of military trial for Obama?
00:38:03.260Because this is something that there is no statute of limitations for this.
00:38:08.000And this is, this is Steve, and I'll shut up here in a second.
00:38:11.660This is the greatest crime committed in the history of the United States of America, unimaginable to the majority of Americans,
00:38:19.040that a coup would be attempted by one president against another president of the United States of America.
00:38:25.560But in fact, ladies and gentlemen, that is exactly what happened.
00:38:31.920You're saying this, let me start with the last first, about military tribunals, and he was commander-in-chief.
00:38:38.400You're saying because even with the, what happened in the Kennedy coup, the Nixon, and maybe Johnson is still, you know, a very dark cloud on Johnson in the first situation.
00:38:52.020You never really had the active hand of a former president in a coup against the person that was, was freely elected to be your follower.
00:39:02.340Is that why you're saying this is unprecedented in American history and does what you've seen today with the, with the declassification by Tulsi show you as a former head of DIA and the president's national security advisor and spent a lifetime in intelligence that Obama directly had his hand involved in this, sir?
00:39:21.220So, so, so number one, the answer to the last part, yes, Obama clearly had his hand directly involved in this.
00:39:28.960And I think that the, this, this new revelation of the 8th, December, 2016, uh, Oval Office meeting to me is very clear that that, uh, that, that happened, you know, for Kennedy, Kennedy, of course, JFK was replaced by Johnson who hated Kennedy and he wanted the job.
00:39:45.820So nothing really happened. There was the commission after Kennedy, it ended up in nothing. And what did we learn? We learned it, you know, because, but because, uh, Trump released the files.
00:39:55.060We learned that the CA was directly involved in the assassination of a president, Nixon, the, the, uh, the, uh, person who ended up replacing Nixon was Gerald Ford.
00:40:04.260Where was, where did Gerald Ford come out of the U S Senate? And what did Gerald Ford sit down, sit on, he sat on the commission that investigated the JFK assassination.
00:40:11.680I mean, it's just unbelievable. Uh, what, what happened back then that where, where elements of our government were basically conducting subversive activities and we now know it, right?
00:40:24.640We now know it only because president Donald J. Trump had the guts to run again and as much abuse as he took.
00:40:31.600And we all know this, and especially you and I, we know abuse he took in his first administration and then what they did to him afterwards, you know, they didn't realize, I didn't think that this guy was ever going to win again.
00:40:41.340And here he is. So here's Donald J. Trump, nothing to lose except making sure, except this country and the legacy that, that he will leave for this country, you know, we'll be, you know, he'll have a great economy and we're, you know, he's really digging into the foreign policy and then the border and all this other stuff.
00:40:56.960But the greatest legacy is he can, that he can leave is to destroy, destroy this socialism that exists in our government as he's communists.
00:41:05.580And you do it by holding people accountable. And, and you start with, in this case, with what we just learned over the last couple of days, you start with Barack Obama, Barack H. Obama intentionally, you know, brought his team together and said, you know, we didn't think he was going to win, but now that he won, we got, we can't allow this guy to govern.
00:41:26.120And they tried immediately to undermine the presidency and the president of the United States of America. And they did it in such a vicious attack. And that's why I say, this is the greatest crime in the history of this country.
00:41:38.520And the, the legal experts that we have in our government, they need, and in this country, they need to look at this thing and go, okay, how do we adjudicate this? Because it has to be done. These, there, there are going to be people that must go to prison over this. We cannot have the likes of, of Obama. We can't have people like Comey, Brennan, Clapper, Susan Rice.
00:42:00.660We can't have them walk in the streets as, as free, as though, as though they did nothing, that this was a directive, an order that they were following. Let's ask, ask those that were hung after the end of the World War II that said, I was just following orders of Hitler, right? I mean, this is what we're facing right now. And people have got to take this very, very seriously. And we can't have years long investigations, Steve. No, we're done with that. We, there's, there was so much evidence that's available.
00:42:29.300Hell, he already had IG investigations. We had, you know, all the other investigations that occurred for years that brought out all kinds of evidence. Now we have the bravery of Tulsi Gabbard and Donald J. Trump in the White House, Tulsi Gabbard at the DNI, and she is on a tear right now and good for her.
00:42:47.300General Flynn, can you hang on? I know you just got back to DC, but we're going to take a short commercial break. I've got to ask, I want to ask you about your top three.
00:42:56.960I do want to state that when, that when General Flynn and Jared and, and the president elect went down to DC, I think 24 hours after we won, it was 24, 48 hours, either the day after or two days after.
00:43:12.700And the president came back, I talked to him. He said, Obama only made one recommendation. And that recommendation is that you, you cannot have Mike Flynn as your national security advisor. Now, you know why it's pretty obvious.
00:43:25.820They knew that General Flynn's knowledge of the intelligence apparatus, the intelligence, knowledge of the intelligence community, besides his understanding of geopolitics and national security and military, but his understanding of the apparatus itself made him a clear and present danger to the coup.
00:43:43.860And General Flynn is absolutely correct. This was a coup. And General Flynn's also absolutely correct. We can't take years to investigate this. It's all there right in front of us.
00:43:53.140Action, action, action, action, short commercial break. General Mike Flynn on the other side.
00:44:07.140You missed the IRS tax deadline. You think it's just going to go away. Well, think again.
00:44:15.620The IRS doesn't mess around and they're applying pressure like we haven't seen in years.
00:44:20.140So if you haven't filed in a while, even if you can't pay, don't wait.
00:44:25.520And don't face the IRS alone. You need the trusted experts by your side. Tax Network USA.
00:44:32.980Tax Network USA isn't like other tax relief companies. They have an edge, a preferred direct line to the IRS.
00:44:40.060They know which agents to talk to and which ones to avoid.
00:44:43.560They use smart, aggressive strategies to settle your tax problems quickly and in your favor.
00:44:48.740However, whether you owe $10,000 or $10 million, Tax Network USA has helped resolve over $1 billion in tax debt.
00:44:59.420And they can help you, too. Don't wait on this. It's only going to get worse.
00:45:02.800Call Tax Network USA right now. It's free.
00:45:06.100Talk with one of their strategists and put your IRS troubles behind you.
00:45:29.160General Flynn, we'll get you back on when you get settled.
00:45:38.640Just real quickly, a lot of the audience, they're concerned.
00:45:40.960Your number two is to get the federal task force ready to do raids on the homes.
00:45:46.160They're concerned about, are guys clearing their electronic devices right now?
00:45:50.800Yeah, yeah. You know, I'm concerned about that.
00:45:54.720But you know something I will tell you, having been involved in the intelligence business for a long time,
00:46:01.220they better, they're going to have to burn them to the ground because there's something called the cloud, Steve, the cloud.
00:46:07.400And I know what organizations like the National Security Agency out of Fort Meade can do and other capabilities that we have.
00:46:15.360So these people know, they know that they're not going to be able to hide from these, from the egregiousness of what we just discovered.
00:46:22.520Last point, Steve, what Kelsey Gabbard found and what we're seeing is we're seeing the exposure of communications that were not classified,
00:46:32.960but they were using classified systems to communicate to hide these communications.
00:46:38.780It may be a little bit in the weeds, but Obama and these other criminals were using classified systems to hide their criminal behavior so nobody would ever find it.
00:46:50.500That's what Kelsey Gabbard is also demonstrating to the American people, that these scum were hiding their coup,
00:46:58.500their attempted coup against President Donald J. Trump during his first presidency, and they need to be dealt with.
00:47:05.040And Mike, correct me if I'm wrong, they kept it in draft form.
