Transcript

00:00:01.000 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
00:00:06.000 Pray for our enemies,
00:00:08.000 because we're going medieval on these people.
00:00:11.000 I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
00:00:16.000 The people have had a belly full of it.
00:00:18.000 I know you don't like hearing that.
00:00:19.000 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that,
00:00:21.000 but you're not going to stop it.
00:00:22.000 It's going to happen.
00:00:23.000 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
00:00:26.000 Mega Media.
00:00:28.000 I wish in my soul,
00:00:30.000 I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:00:33.000 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:00:37.000 If that answer is to save my country,
00:00:40.000 this country will be saved.
00:00:43.000 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Vann.
00:00:52.000 It's Wednesday, 20 August, year of our Lord, 2025.
00:00:55.000 Thank you for being here for the second hour of the morning edition.
00:00:58.000 We're also going to be on fire in the afternoon edition.
00:01:00.000 We got so much four hours a day.
00:01:02.000 We can't even wedge it all in.
00:01:04.000 I've got Philip Patrick.
00:01:06.000 I got Steve Cortez.
00:01:07.000 I'm going to get back to Steve Cortez in a moment and bring in Philip Patrick after,
00:01:11.000 just after.
00:01:12.000 We've got Senator Mike Lee by phone,
00:01:14.000 and I need to take Senator Lee because this goes back to my open about 2026 and beyond.
00:01:21.000 Senator Mike Lee, thank you.
00:01:23.000 And it's so great to have you here because we always look to you to help us out with the Constitution
00:01:28.000 and the constitutionality of things.
00:01:30.000 This whole, the three aspects of everything that's going on,
00:01:35.000 one, the president calling for a mid-decade census that's done right,
00:01:40.000 done correctly, done of illegal aliens,
00:01:42.000 but also doesn't have all the problems that the Commerce Department had last time.
00:01:45.000 Also, the redistricting fight and, folks, I think we're getting very close to a vote in Texas,
00:01:51.000 but it's not good enough.
00:01:52.000 We need a Texas 10, not the five that was originally there because the Democrats try to be cute.
00:01:58.000 There's more seats down there.
00:02:00.000 We have to be maximalist.
00:02:01.000 Number three is this thing about mail-in ballots.
00:02:04.000 And so, Senator Lee, I know you've got a thread and you're very focused on this.
00:02:09.000 Correct me if I'm wrong, is the great state of Utah, is that 100% mail-in ballots like Colorado,
00:02:15.000 or you guys just use mail-in ballots a lot, sir?
00:02:18.000 No, we've been using universal mail-in voting for a long time.
00:02:26.000 In fact, we adopted it significantly before COVID.
00:02:29.000 In some respects, one could argue that Utah does it better than other states.
00:02:34.000 Nonetheless, the risks remain.
00:02:37.000 The risks have proven themselves to be inherent in the nature of mail-in balloting.
00:02:43.000 Look, you don't just print out millions of ballots and send them out like feathers in the wind into the U.S. mail system.
00:02:51.000 There are too many potential points of failure.
00:02:54.000 And so, even if you're a state like Utah that probably does mail-in balloting better than others,
00:02:59.000 that doesn't mean that what is safer than other states today will remain safer tomorrow.
00:03:07.000 Nor does it mean that it's adequately safe even for today.
00:03:10.000 Simply because of the fact that you've got chain of custody problems that amplify themselves exponentially
00:03:18.000 the minute you put it into the hands of the U.S. postal system.
00:03:22.000 Now, the U.S. postal system is good for what it's good for, but it's not a good way to vote,
00:03:27.000 and I think we need to end it in Utah and across the country.
00:03:30.000 And I've written on that extensively over the last few days on X on my base Mike Lieb account
00:03:36.000 because I feel passionately about this.
00:03:38.000 I think there is way too much room for manipulation.
00:03:41.000 And if there's ever been a time that we need to be refocused on sort of bolstering the integrity,
00:03:51.000 actual and perceived integrity of our voting systems, it's right now.
00:03:57.000 Why did, you know, you could understand the crazies in Oregon and not the eastern part,
00:04:02.000 not the eastern part of Washington, but, you know, the Seattle, Portland crowd.
00:04:05.000 You can understand in the takeover, the blue takeover of Colorado, because in Colorado,
00:04:11.000 there was a plan of these radical LGBTQ plus billionaires to take Colorado
00:04:18.000 and turn it from, you know, a western state with those kind of western values of self-reliance
00:04:24.000 into a blue state, purple first and blue.
00:04:26.000 You can understand why some of these states have gone this.
00:04:31.000 How, why did Utah do, I mean, Utah is like the epitome of American values, self-reliance, self-determination.
00:04:40.000 You do things the classic old fashioned American way.
00:04:43.000 How did Utah, of all places, even get into the mail and ballot business?
00:04:48.000 My understanding is that a decision was made at the time based at least in part on the belief by many Republicans
00:04:56.000 that it would help enhance our ability to win more state legislative seats for Republicans in the state of Utah.
00:05:06.000 Now, I don't know whether the statistics actually bear that out or not.
00:05:10.000 But regardless of whether they do, I think any any gain there, any actual perceived gain there is more than offset by the
00:05:20.000 the diminution in voter integrity in the security and safety reliability of our voting systems or the ability of our voting systems to be resilient as against attempts to engage in voting fraud.
00:05:38.000 So regardless of what those motivations might have been and what the merits might have been at the time, I think the time has come for us to change.
00:05:46.000 And that's why I'm calling on our legislature in Utah and legislatures across the country to do the same.
00:05:52.000 So how are you how are you going to lead that effort?
00:05:56.000 You know, it's interesting, the founders, given that the post office was such a major institution at the founding of the Republic, you know, didn't come out for this.
00:06:05.000 So today it's like, why are we doing this, particularly in a system that's so open to manipulation and corruption?
00:06:12.000 How do you expect to get this done in Utah? And then how do you expect to take this what President Trump wants to do?
00:06:19.000 He's going to have a very tough executive order I know they're working on right now.
00:06:22.000 What would you like to see in that executive order to help you on your crusade to take you get it shut down everywhere in the country?
00:06:29.000 Well, first and foremost, anything coming out of the White House in the form of an executive order or otherwise, I think can be very helpful to us,
00:06:36.000 especially in Sephardi as it emphasizes problems that the administration has uncovered, ways in which these things have been abused and manipulated.
00:06:48.000 I can't speak to what they intend to actually do in the executive order.
00:06:52.000 I just haven't been read in on any of that.
00:06:55.000 I really don't know what they have in mind, but I know that President Trump has led the way.
00:07:01.000 And I think President Trump's vocal advocacy on this has been very effective.
00:07:05.000 I know they've got because of the messages coming from the White House and from President Trump himself.
00:07:14.000 We've got lawmakers who are much more interested in this as a result of his direct involvement.
00:07:21.000 So the more of that we can get, the better off we're going to be.
00:07:26.000 Before I let you go, Senator Lee, you led the effort, the great effort to support President Trump for recess, a true recess and a recess appointment.
00:07:35.000 It's pretty obvious to anyone associated with the administration is that given the lack of manpower we've had on these billets just to get in.
00:07:44.000 And I mean, I'm talking about the U.S. attorneys.
00:07:45.000 I'm talking about just the staff, these billets in the executive branch, that it's not just people working overtime.
00:07:52.000 Things are falling through the crack for the simple reason we just don't have the manpower President Trump needs.
00:07:56.000 Is there any update at all you can give us on when we can expect?
00:08:01.000 I understand they may change some rules in the margin.
00:08:03.000 But the bottom line, I believe, is that at some point in time, we're going to have to have John Thunen, the leadership, the McConnell-backed leadership of the Senate, have President Trump's back here and have some sort of a true recess when we get recess appointments.
00:08:19.000 Any update at all on anything you've been working on while we're on this, quote unquote, non-recess recess?
00:08:27.000 Yeah, look, there are members of the Senate who demanded when we left that as soon as we come back into session, either the first or second week of September, when we're back in session, that we will be considering some possible rules changes.
00:08:47.000 Now, I want to be optimistic about that.
00:08:54.000 Keep in mind, an actual rules change takes 67 votes.
00:08:58.000 You can adopt what's called a standing order, which can have the same effect as a rules change, then that takes 60 votes.
00:09:06.000 So either of those options would require more than a simple majority, and it would require the support of at least some Democrats.
00:09:14.000 If we can do that such that we can really expedite a lot of President Trump's nominees, because this isn't just a matter of human resources, of manpower, as you say.
00:09:24.000 It's also having the right political appointees who are installed and confirmed and can act with the legitimacy, the imprimatur of Senate confirmation approval within their respective agencies.
00:09:37.000 So, look, if we can get that done, that'd be great.
00:09:41.000 Frankly, right now, I'm not holding my breath, which is why I advocated for us to either stay in session until we clear the backlog or alternatively that if we actually recess, that we take a real recess.
00:09:56.000 All the Democrats right now in the Senate are looking at Gavin Newsom finally getting some traction because he's trying to mimic President Trump.
00:10:07.000 Given the 30th of September, the timing on all this madness related to the minibus, the maxi bus, omnibus, appropriations, all that madness, the clock's going to be ticking, right, with only 10 or 15 days.
00:10:24.880 Do you actually think that the Senate could come?
00:10:26.940 I mean, the fight for 60 or 67 votes would be historic right now, would it not, sir?
00:10:31.660 Because they're in a position, they don't want to cooperate with Trump.
00:10:34.540 This is why the recess appointment is so important.
00:10:36.400 They don't want to cooperate with Trump on anything.
00:10:39.240 And their voters are howling, right?
00:10:42.100 You can't even have a town hall because these crazy people are show up shouting people down.
00:10:46.920 Do you honestly, do you actually think, because you're a guy that's a safe pair of hands, you actually think we could get the Senate to agree on anything that would be a win for Trump, sir?
00:10:56.080 I think it is exceptionally unlikely.
00:10:58.040 The reason there may be some sliver of hope there, there may be some institutionalists among the Senate Democrats who might say, look, if it's going to be between this and a larger slew of recess appointments, then maybe we ought to play ball.
00:11:14.440 I don't think they're going to play ball, which is why I think we've got to do what I think we should have done in August, which is either stay in session until they're all done.
00:11:21.760 Or if we must take a recess, actually recess, and recess in a way that allows the president to exercise his power under Article II of the Constitution to fill those vacancies during a recess at the Senate.
00:11:36.920 Senator Mike Lee, where do people go?
00:11:38.640 Your thread's amazing.
00:11:39.860 I know you're putting up stuff all the time.
00:11:41.080 Where do people go to get to your social media to find out more about what you're thinking, sir?
00:11:45.240 You can follow my thinking on this, on X, at based Mike Lee, based Mike Lee.
00:11:53.660 And it is quite based.
00:11:55.240 It's a great Twitter feed.
00:11:58.100 Senator Lee, thank you for taking time off to join us today in the war and explain this.
00:12:01.500 Appreciate you.
00:12:02.620 Thanks so much, Steve.
00:12:03.640 Take care.
00:12:05.820 Thank you, brother.
00:12:06.560 Steve Cortez.
00:12:11.260 I've got Philip Patrick with us.
00:12:12.820 And actually, in a short while, Eduardo Bolsonaro.
00:12:16.140 And, you know, a lot of this is coming out of the BRICS nations and led by Lula.
00:12:21.360 Walk me through, again, the defense of the dollar.
00:12:23.500 I want to – because I know we've got all kind of economic problems here.
00:12:26.240 But go back to your – coming out of – you're in Jackson Hole, right?
00:12:30.500 Even as we speak, and I know the president's anticipating some acknowledgment of a rate cut.
00:12:38.720 I'm not so sure that's coming because I think pound these guys are dug in.
00:12:42.940 By the way, what's your thinking on the rate cut?
00:12:45.400 Where do you come down to – are you part of this group that says they've miscalculated where real natural interest rates should be and that there should be a rate cut, sir?
00:12:55.120 Well, listen, I am, of course, no fan of Powell or, for that matter, the Fed on the whole.
00:12:59.660 However, in this case, I think they're actually correct.
00:13:02.840 When you look at what's going on with the dollar, when you look at what's going on with grocery prices, I think cutting rates right now is dangerous.
00:13:08.660 If rates are going to be cut, I'll tell you this.
00:13:10.760 It must be coincided – it must be coincident with a very significant campaign to back up the dollar.
00:13:17.780 That is, I think, absolutely paramount.
00:13:21.060 That is an imperative if rates are going to come down.
00:13:23.140 We have to try to defend the dollar because part of the erosion of buying power of regular Americans,
00:13:27.620 a big reason why they continue to tell us in polling that they have tremendous economic anxiety.
00:13:32.780 Even though they don't know it, it's a currency issue.
00:13:34.920 It's because their buying power is eroding because the dollar is eroding.
00:13:38.500 So I think this is absolutely key.
00:13:40.320 And, again, this is not my opinion.
00:13:41.440 I mean, just look at the levels.
00:13:42.620 Look at Bitcoin.
00:13:43.440 Look at gold.
00:13:44.500 Look at even the euro currency.
00:13:45.720 For all the problems of Europe, the euro currency is having a great year against the U.S. dollar.
00:13:49.960 That is not consequence-free.
00:13:52.260 And, again, to translate it back to politics and polling,
00:13:55.120 it's why half of Americans give a D or an F grade to the administration on inflation right now.
00:14:01.840 And that's in Georgia.
00:14:02.880 That's in a state that is a leaning Republican.
00:14:05.360 But when we ask them to give a letter grade, 48 percent of women, 48 percent of independents
00:14:09.700 tell us they give a D or an F to the administration.
00:14:12.480 And that women number is very important, by the way, because they are generally the CFOs of the household.
00:14:16.240 They tend to do more shopping.
00:14:17.320 They pay the bills.
00:14:17.960 So they are the accountants.
00:14:19.540 They're the CFOs.
00:14:20.660 And in that regard, you know, their view is particularly important here.
00:14:23.360 Now, you know, having said all that, Steve, look, the Fed is utterly corrupt.
00:14:26.100 And one of the things I'm trying to talk to here in Jackson Hole,
00:14:28.520 I'm trying to talk to as many reporters as I can because most of the media folks are already here,
00:14:32.260 is will you please give some real scrutiny to the Fed?
00:14:35.060 I mean, the fact that a Fed governor is likely to be imminently indicted,
00:14:37.960 the fact that the last vice chairman of the Fed, Richard Clarida,
00:14:41.300 that he had to resign because he was front-running during the COVID panic,
00:14:45.500 he was front-running the Fed with multi-million dollar trades that got hardly any attention from the corporate media.
00:14:50.500 I mean, give them some scrutiny.
00:14:51.300 Steve, hang on.
00:14:53.200 Hang on one second.
00:14:54.540 Short break.
00:14:55.580 Philip Patrick is going to join us.
00:14:56.820 This July, there is a global summit of BRICS nations in Rio de Janeiro,
00:15:04.800 the bloc of emerging superpowers, including China, Russia, India, and Persia,
00:15:10.460 are meeting with the goal of displacing the United States dollar as the global currency.
00:15:15.560 They're calling this the Rio Reset.
00:15:18.860 As BRICS nations push forward with their plans, global demand for U.S. dollars will decrease,
00:15:23.780 bringing down the value of the dollar in your savings.
00:15:26.820 While this transition won't not happen overnight, but trust me, it's going to start in Rio.
00:15:33.420 The Rio Reset in July marks a pivotal moment when BRICS objectives move decisively
00:15:38.860 from a theoretical possibility towards an inevitable reality.

00:17:06.480 You're going to be at Jackson Hole.
00:17:07.600 We'll be checking in with you every day as you corral the media in information warfare
00:17:13.780 and get them focused on what's particularly the corruption of the Fed.
00:17:16.960 I mean, this is a huge deal.
00:17:18.140 President Trump put down a true social as we were coming on air this morning.
00:17:22.380 I guess we were finishing up our pre-production for the Morning War Room.
00:17:26.140 And it demanded that a governor of the Federal Reserve, Lisa Cook, step down immediately because she's about to be imminently indicted for mortgage fraud.
00:17:38.100 That's lovely.
00:17:39.900 Yeah.
00:17:40.020 So make sure your voice is heard there.
00:17:41.820 Where do people go to follow you, sir?
00:17:43.060 Yeah, so go to CortezInvestigates.com.
00:17:46.620 Cortez with an S at the end.
00:17:48.480 All of my documentaries, this article, my most recent article on the economy and polling.
00:17:53.300 And I certainly will be posting more about the Fed.
00:17:55.200 And yeah, listen, I think this is even the bigger point than what the Fed should do with interest rates right now,
00:17:58.960 is we need accountability and transparency from the Fed.
00:18:03.000 This is one of the most important institutions in American life, and yet they operate completely in the shadows,
00:18:08.280 and there's almost no media scrutiny of them, despite a lot of really malicious, awful, and even criminal behavior.
00:18:15.720 Again, reminder, the vice chairman of the Fed, the last vice chairman,
00:18:19.940 was trading in massive amounts front-running decisions of the Fed during the COVID panic.
00:18:25.720 Now we have a sitting Fed governor who looks imminently to be indicted for mortgage fraud.
00:18:31.480 This is a thoroughly corrupt institution.
00:18:33.860 It should be audited.
00:18:34.800 There should be tons of scrutiny.
00:18:36.360 And I think the entire board should be replaced.
00:18:38.760 We need small bankers, farmers, small business owners, enough of these corrupt academics,
00:18:43.740 enough people with PhDs from MIT and Columbia University who have gotten almost everything wrong for decades.
00:18:50.440 So if not eliminate the Fed, at least seriously reform the Fed.
00:18:54.740 And part of what I'm doing here in Jackson Hole is trying to encourage these media folks,
00:18:58.220 and it's not easy, Steve.
00:18:59.160 You know that.
00:18:59.680 They're stubborn as hell.
00:19:00.700 But I'm trying to encourage these media folks to actually be journalists and shine a light on the Fed.
00:19:05.280 Hang on.
00:19:06.100 It's not that – here's the thing.
00:19:09.340 Most of these reporters are all English majors, so they really don't understand it.
00:19:13.640 So to get access in inside baseball, they give them scoops, but they've got to take the party line.
00:19:20.300 That's where the Fed's like – they call it the temple, right?
00:19:23.100 It's like what happens in there is kind of – is like magic.
00:19:27.280 No, it's not that.
00:19:28.360 And look, I'm an in-the-Fed guy.
00:19:30.460 I'm an Andrew Jackson populist.
00:19:32.400 We don't need a central bank.
00:19:33.760 And I think it's only proven to destroy the value of the currency.
00:19:38.800 And it's crushed working-class people.
00:19:41.260 Hell, they bailed out everybody after 2008 on the working people in this country,
00:19:46.340 and it's in the minutes of the Federal Reserve.
00:19:48.800 That's why the book Lords of Easy Money is so shocking.
00:19:53.400 You actually read – oh, by the way, their minutes are not available for a decade.
00:19:58.280 They put them in the National Archives.
00:19:59.620 You can't even read them for a decade after it.
00:20:01.580 The thing's corrupt and incompetent.
00:20:04.200 If you're corrupting on your game, maybe you can look over the corruption, right?
00:20:08.420 But if you're corrupting and incompetent, it's like the French aristocracy right before the French Revolution, right?
00:20:15.320 They learn nothing.
00:20:16.580 The Bourbons learn nothing, and they forgot nothing.
00:20:19.100 That's the Federal Reserve.
00:20:20.120 Steve Cortez, thank you.
00:20:21.180 We'll check back in in Jackson Hole as you're out there.
00:20:24.140 Thank you, sir.
00:20:24.820 Thank you, brother.
00:20:25.320 Appreciate it.
00:20:27.300 So we've got a counter thing about Defend the Dollar.
00:20:29.460 So Philip Patrick, gold's been on fire for the last year.
00:20:34.880 The dollar – there's all kind of questions about the dollar right now.
00:20:38.460 Eduardo Bolsonaro is going to join us here in a little while.
00:20:41.400 You know, he'll tell you they're trying to put – his father's on trial.
00:20:45.300 They're going to put him away forever with this corrupt judge and try to have him assassinated in prison because Lula's never going to turn over Brazil because Lula's in bed with the CCP.
00:20:56.520 And as you reported from – when you went down and did the best reporting from Rio, it's all about these – everything's de-dollarization.
00:21:04.140 They just don't want to say it because they understand President Trump will come down on him with another 50 percent tariff.
00:21:09.240 So given that – and I hear this from a lot of people that gold is at, you know, what, $3,400 or around it fluctuates a little bit.
00:21:16.020 How are people supposed to think about this when Steve Cortez said, hey, look, it was part of the math here, and my phone's already blowing up from people, particularly people on fixed incomes that are saying, hey, look, I'm feeling that decline in the value of the dollar.
00:21:28.360 So what are people to do here and to think through this entire mess, sir?
00:21:32.340 Look, I think you've just got to understand a little bit about gold.
00:21:37.120 So gold's been performing very well, as we've seen since I've come on the show.
00:21:41.480 It's just been going up and up and up, obviously a coincidence.
00:21:45.160 But, you know, I'm hearing from people, are gold prices too high?
00:21:49.560 And the answer, I think, is absolutely not.
00:21:52.900 You've just got to start looking at it in the right way.
00:21:55.280 So first of all, for some historical context, where we are today with gold prices, $3,342 and some change, this is essentially where we were in the 1980s, right?
00:22:07.220 1980, January, after the stagflationary bout of the 70s, gold peaked at around $850 an ounce.
00:22:14.960 If we adjust that to inflation, today that sits at around $3,300.
00:22:19.760 So this isn't new territory in terms of prices.
00:22:23.180 We have to remember a few differences from the 1980s and today, right?
00:22:27.860 Back in the 1980s, there were options.
00:22:30.940 Money in the bank, CDs were paying 16%.
00:22:34.080 You could beat inflation sitting in the bank.
00:22:37.400 Those options just don't exist today.
00:22:40.800 We also have to look at gold in terms of an asset class.
00:22:44.700 This is a commodity that isn't like oil or wheat, right?
00:22:48.320 Look at with most commodities, high prices will kill demand or boost supply, or they're going to do both, right?
00:22:56.520 And then ultimately, they're consumed or used up.
00:22:59.780 Gold is very different.
00:23:01.340 Supply barely grows.
00:23:02.820 It's 1% a year, regardless of what happens to price, right?
00:23:07.660 So price is set by those who are willing to sell, not by new supply.
00:23:13.480 So it's a very unique commodity in that respect.
00:23:16.780 And then here's the big ones.
00:23:18.620 Who's buying gold today?
00:23:20.180 It's central banks, as we've talked for the last three and a half years, setting consecutive records.
00:23:26.400 But people have to understand one thing about gold.
00:23:30.060 There is no ceiling on its price when money breaks, right?
00:23:34.860 And we talk a lot about the dollar, devaluation of the dollar, de-dollarization.
00:23:39.640 Kenneth Rogoff said this back in 2016.
00:23:42.140 He said gold has no limit to its price.
00:23:45.240 And he's absolutely right.
00:23:47.220 Look at Weimar Germany, right?
00:23:49.520 An ounce of gold before World War I was 170 marks.
00:23:54.300 10 years later, after a hyperinflationary bout, 87 trillion marks it took to buy one ounce of gold, right?
00:24:03.500 So gold is a reflection of currency.
00:24:06.240 And ultimately, gold will go as high as currency goes low.
00:24:09.920 And what history has shown us is there is no bottom for currency.
00:24:14.060 So when we talk about dollar devaluation and why people should buy gold, this is exactly why.
00:24:20.560 Look at investment banks now scrambling to up their predictions.
00:24:24.920 Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, UBS, Bank of America all say over $4,000 within the next six to eight months.
00:24:32.140 So this is a market, I think, that will continue to move.
00:24:36.100 And I'll go back to what you say.
00:24:38.120 Don't look at gold's price.
00:24:40.000 Look at the fundamentals driving gold.
00:24:42.600 They are strengthening every single day, Steve.
00:24:47.120 That's what we're trying to do with the end of the dollar empire.
00:24:49.440 Just go to the end.
00:24:49.980 It's been four years.
00:24:51.440 And, you know, I hate to be so blunt, but we've called this from the very beginning.
00:24:55.620 And if you go back and look at the chapters, and we try to build this up so that you understand, really back to the beginning of the country.
00:25:02.260 We go back to the foundation.
00:25:03.780 We go back how big currency was, how big tariffs, the whole thing.
00:25:07.720 Economics were such a part of the founding of the nation, so much part really of the revolution that's never really talked about.
00:25:14.380 Number one, most historians just don't understand it.
00:25:17.660 Currency itself was a hot political topic.
00:25:20.680 This was the rise of not just Jackson and the populace about he wanted to get rid of the Bank of the United States at that time.
00:25:27.920 But later, William Jennings Bryan.
00:25:29.700 Remember, don't nail me to a cross of gold.
00:25:32.340 The whole thing of currency, greenbacks, how we finance the Civil War.
00:25:36.080 It's fascinating, but it's important to your life today to understand it.
00:25:39.500 That's what we try to do.
00:25:40.500 End of the dollar empire.
00:25:42.260 Promo code Bannon.
00:25:43.120 Birch Gold promo code Bannon.
00:25:44.560 You get it.
00:25:45.080 We got seven free installments.
00:25:46.400 Phillip and I are working on a bunch of stuff now.
00:25:47.860 We got an eighth and a ninth in process.
00:25:50.060 We're also going to come up with a physical copy.
00:25:52.640 After Labor Day, we'll tell you about it.
00:25:54.380 And more importantly, we're going to do some other very special things that we're working on right now and we'll talk to you about.
00:25:59.700 Phillip, before I let you go, one of the things is that, you know, President Trump, you know, he's whipping votes on big, beautiful bill.
00:26:06.160 They didn't give him a recess, so he doesn't have his staff.
00:26:08.580 You know, the people in the second and third tier people that you need to actually make things happen.
00:26:13.640 He's cleaned up Washington, D.C., I think in 72 hours or in the process of it.
00:26:18.140 There's so many things going on.
00:26:20.260 And now he's, you know, doing the negotiation for peace in Ukraine the same time they're coming back to him on the Gaza situation.
00:26:26.540 I mean, the guy's got any one of these problems with a broken, a previous president.
00:26:31.360 One thing I'm most concerned about is I don't think the House and the Senate and other surrogates are doing enough to go out and sell the big, beautiful bill in the supply side part of it.
00:26:43.160 Give me a minute on that. We've got about 90 seconds.
00:26:45.740 Give me a minute on that about about just the process of selling the big, beautiful bill to the American people, the details of it.
00:26:52.560 Look, I think people need to understand that austerity is not going to do the job here.
00:26:58.060 The only way to do this is to grow the economy and to do it at a rapid pace.
00:27:04.280 I agree with Malpass. I mean, the bill is absolutely important.
00:27:10.340 We need a good environment for growth.
00:27:13.020 I think it's why the Federal Reserve do have to lower rates a little bit.
00:27:17.240 I was torn listening to Malpass and Cortez because I understand both sides of it.
00:27:22.360 But what we need right now is an injection of growth.
00:27:26.000 We need to do it fast.
00:27:27.720 President Trump has done an incredible job.
00:27:29.840 Even I've been surprised with the amount of revenue he's generated through tariffs, but also the amount of investment he's attracted to the United States.
00:27:38.880 But we need to push his bill forward.
00:27:40.840 At the end of the day, as you say, he's dealing with so many issues.
00:27:45.080 I don't think there's many people on the face of this earth that can balance that.
00:27:48.940 We've got to trust President Trump.
00:27:50.700 We've got to let him do what he does best and try and put some rocket fuel on this economy because it needs it badly now.

00:29:36.260 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:29:41.500 Like I said, I want to thank the team over at Birch Gold.
00:29:43.820 Make sure, if you haven't gotten to the end of the dollar empire, birchgold.com, promo code Bannon, end of the dollar empire, totally free.
00:29:51.200 Get you up to speed, no enclosure process, all of it.
00:29:54.160 You need to understand that.
00:29:55.260 Particularly, our next guest, Eduardo Bolsonaro.
00:29:57.920 Eduardo, thank you.
00:29:58.760 Since Lula is trying to lead the de-dollarization effort because he hates the United States, he's a Marxist, he's in business with, and a partner of the Chinese Communist Party.
00:30:06.860 I might say a junior partner of the Chinese Communist Party.
00:30:09.980 Eduardo, a big announcement coming out of state the other day.
00:30:12.820 Walk us through the latest of where the sanctions are, how the United States, the standoff between the United States and these demons in your home country, Brazil, sir.
00:30:24.100 We also have to thank a lot President Trump.
00:30:27.580 He's the greatest leader ever in the history of the humanity, in my opinion.
00:30:31.440 And he started to give me some pressure in the financial system of Brazil with the 50% tariffs and clearly saying that this is not only because trade issues, but also because Brazil is living a huge institutional crisis.
00:30:47.720 And the Brazilian establishment is answering that, sending Jair Bolsonaro, for example, beginning Alexandre Moraes, this crazy justice from the Supreme Court, imposing him an ankle bracelet.
00:31:01.020 And in the end of this day, Trump took eight visas of the 11 justices of the Brazilian Supreme Court.
00:31:08.160 And then Alexandre Moraes, doubling down again, sent Bolsonaro to house arrest.
00:31:13.000 And Trump sanctioned Alexandre Moraes with all-fact sanctions.
00:31:16.500 So now we are in a point where a partner of Alexandre Moraes inside of the Brazilian Supreme Court is deciding, is saying that the Brazilian banks should not follow the all-fact sanctions.
00:31:30.060 What they did not understand that the Magnitsky Global Act is not an American law that the United States pretended to enforce in other countries.
00:31:39.060 It's only a law saying that, OK, if you are a bank and you want to have access to the financial market of the United States, you have to accomplish with the all-fact list of sanctioned.
00:31:51.660 And then you have Alexandre de Moraes.
00:31:53.800 So the banks of Brazil nowadays, they have to decide in following the Supreme Court or following the all-fact sanctioned list.
00:32:03.940 And I do believe that they do not have other options and they have to follow the Magnitsky Global Act law because other way they are going to bankrupt because you cannot survive as a bank without access to the greatest financial market in the world, which it is in the United States.
00:32:23.840 Is there anything else we can do except cutting off all imports from Brazil?
00:32:32.040 I mean, are there any other steps that President Trump, Secretary Scott Besson, who you met, I put your picture up on my social media, Rubio, because people understand President Trump is very focused on this.
00:32:45.520 Scott Besson is very focused on this.
00:32:47.360 In fact, when Secretary Besson, our old colleague, met with Eduardo, he canceled the meetings with the finance minister.
00:32:54.740 Rubio is all over this.
00:32:56.540 You have many people that are all over this.
00:32:58.320 Is there anything else for our audience to be thinking about that can still be done to assist your father in the people in Brazil we love so much?
00:33:07.340 Yes.
00:33:07.840 First, the press in Brazil, they were saying that the Brazilians are not applying correctly.
00:33:18.920 I mean, the banks are not applying correctly.
00:33:21.680 The Global Magnitsky Act, which means that Alexandre Moraes, he's sanctioned, but he is still holding some banking accounts in Brazil.
00:33:31.340 And so this is the first asking that we did for Secretary Scott Besson to properly inform or enforce the Global Magnitsky Act against Alexandre de Moraes.
00:33:45.220 And now that I have other justice in the Supreme Court supporting Alexandre de Moraes, he also can be sanctioned because through the American law of the Global Magnitsky Act,
00:33:55.260 it says that it doesn't matter who works in support of the sanctioned, this person is also going to be sanctioned.
00:34:04.080 So this is another point.
00:34:05.480 And we are increasing the pressure to accomplish with the letter of President Trump to President Lula da Silva,
00:34:13.480 which in the first paragrapher talks about the lawfare and the persecution against Jerry Bolsonaro, my father, our family, and our supporters.
00:34:21.980 So to answer that, we need to approve what we have in the Congress we call the amnesty bill.
00:34:28.360 It's a part of coming from the Congress.
00:34:31.180 And we do need that not only to release Jerry Bolsonaro from jail and to let me go back to my country, Brazil,
00:34:38.720 but also to have a full participation of the opposition in the next year election.
00:34:44.220 Yep.
00:34:45.520 Okay, we're going to be all over that.
00:34:47.120 Eduardo, your social media, how do people keep up with you?
00:34:49.680 We're all over the amnesty bill.
00:34:50.860 We'll have you back on next week to go through it.
00:34:52.780 Where do people go on social media to keep up minute by minute on this great fight for freedom in the great nation of Brazil, sir?
00:35:02.740 You can go through Bolsonaro SP, reminding you Americans that we, Alexandre de Moraes, block the rumble in Brazil.
00:35:10.260 So we do not have rumble in Brazil, but no other social medias.
00:35:13.440 I am Bolsonaro SP.
00:35:15.220 Thank you very much for this opportunity again, Steve.
00:35:17.420 You are doing a great work in favor of the freedom in Brazil.
00:35:20.860 Eduardo, the audience loves you, your family, the nation, the Bolsonaro movement down there.
00:35:28.420 It's incredible.
00:35:29.020 This is a fight that everybody's engaged in.
00:35:30.940 So thank you so much, sir.
00:35:32.880 I want to thank Secretary of Treasury Scott Besant.
00:35:35.680 I want to thank Secretary of State Marco Rubio that made this a priority.
00:35:38.820 I also want to thank the great Vince Haley over at the New Mexico Policy Council.
00:35:42.540 Vince Haley, a great man working nonstop over there.
00:35:45.800 Also, Darren Beattie over at State.
00:35:47.980 Just an incredible team.
00:35:50.420 Quite controversial.
00:35:51.440 The Make America Healthy Again movement in MAGA.
00:35:53.960 If we're combined, nothing can beat us.
00:35:56.180 Gary Abreka joins us now from Maha Action.
00:35:59.720 Gary, explain to this audience this leak of the Maha report.
00:36:03.420 What's going on?
00:36:04.320 Because our audience is quite dedicated.
00:36:06.640 We love Bobby Kennedy.
00:36:08.020 We love what he's trying to accomplish.
00:36:10.080 We just had the guys on last week about the mRNA.
00:36:12.440 But there's some controversy about this leaked report.
00:36:15.820 Where do we stay?
00:36:16.300 You know better than anybody.
00:36:17.740 Where do we stand with this?
00:36:19.780 Well, I mean, you have to look at the traction that Bobby's had so far.
00:36:22.540 I mean, you're uprooting decades of deep state corruption.
00:36:26.020 You know, the corruption in our nutritional supply, the corruption in our nutritional research.
00:36:30.540 You know, when you just take a step back and you look at 74% of our nutritional research is funded by big food and big pharma, right?
00:36:37.560 This is how you get a food pyramid that says that Lucky Charms is more nutritious than grass-fed steak.
00:36:42.300 And if you look at trying to uproot this level of corruption in our food supply, in our nutritional research, in our public policy, in the way that we protect chemical companies.
00:36:52.080 You know, look at House Appropriations Bill 453, which is a bill that would give broad immunity to chemical companies like ChemChina that make Paraquat, which is illegal in China, but then sold into the United States and being lobbied for broad protections in the United States against consumer revolt for harm.
00:37:12.780 And this is not just broad protection for chemical companies.
00:37:15.320 It's broad protection for chemical companies against known harm, meaning knowingly causing harm, not just inadvertently causing harm, but knowingly causing harm.
00:37:26.180 Companies like Bayer that make Roundup and glyphosate, which is a German company, not even a U.S. company, that import these pesticides, herbicides, insecticides and poisons and heavily spray our crops in the United States.
00:37:40.060 But they're not allowed to do this in their own mother country.
00:37:42.200 When Bobby Kennedy starts to stand up to this kind of corruption, you see this kind of malfeasance in the narrative.
00:37:52.500 So the report was leaked.
00:37:53.960 You'll have people on both sides of the report, some saying, hey, it doesn't go far enough.
00:37:57.600 Some saying it goes way too far, depending on what side of the aisle that you're on.
00:38:01.540 But the truth is that the milestones that Bobby has accomplished and the Maha movement has accomplished are not only here to stay, but they're picking up steam and momentum.
00:38:10.820 The Moms Across America and chronic disease.
00:38:14.240 But hang on a second because the MAGA movement is 100 percent down with Bobby and what's trying to happen.
00:38:22.500 I mean, this audience is the one that would fix bad nets on his confirmation.
00:38:27.420 So, yeah, I think and I want to make sure the audience understands this.
00:38:30.500 This is why we want to have you on a date.
00:38:31.800 There was some confusion, particularly the way the media said that Bobby and the team had already been compromised, that the Maha report that was leaked, what you just said right there, right?
00:38:41.480 Because, you know, we had Nicole on.
00:38:43.400 She did a great job about big ag and the big chemical companies.
00:38:46.620 But the report, at least the way it was spun by some media outlets, that Bobby Kennedy and the Maha team had blinked, that it wasn't going to be aggressive enough in some of the areas you just talked about.
00:38:58.720 Number one, that's a narrative coming from big pharma, big ag, who want to disembowel Bobby Kennedy and the team right now.
00:39:09.220 Can you set it straight that that's not the fact that the team over the team over there is just as focused and don't believe the spin of what came out on this leaked report?
00:39:18.900 Do not believe the spin about what came out on this leaked report.
00:39:21.860 Don't believe that there's any daylight between President Trump and Bobby Kennedy.
00:39:26.200 Bobby Kennedy prayed for 20 years to be in the position he's in right now to have the kind of influence on public policy that he's having.
00:39:33.420 He is fully on board with Donald Trump's agenda.
00:39:36.300 He has no intention of running for president in 2028, despite some of that creative narrative.
00:39:42.800 You know, the only way to stop this movement would be to drive a wedge between the White House and Health and Human Services or between Bobby Kennedy and Donald Trump.
00:39:50.340 And it's just simply not going to happen.
00:39:52.660 You know, this is as much a spiritual revolution as it is a revolution about corruption.
00:39:57.900 And people are going to choose to be on one side of the aisle or the other.
00:40:01.220 The challenge for them now is that the court of public opinion is shifting.
00:40:06.880 It is it is going to become impossibly it's going to become impossible to overcome the narrative of being on the opposite side of childhood cancers, max fast vaccinations, broad immunity for chemical companies at the expense of American citizens.
00:40:24.280 And so you're seeing the the flailing, you know, the absolute panic with their backs against the wall where they can't counter the narrative directly.
00:40:34.020 Nobody can raise their hand and say, hey, I want to get physical education out of the public school system.
00:40:38.240 We want more petroleum based food dyes, you know, in our in our in our food, more glyphosate, more more genetically modified foods, more Roundup, more Paraquat.
00:40:46.900 So what they have to do is they have to try to attack the personality, which is Bobby Kennedy and say, hey, his agenda is going too far.
00:40:54.180 It's infringing on our freedom of choice, none of which is true.
00:40:58.040 You know, you'll still have the freedom to choose all of the all of the foods that you had to choose five years ago.
00:41:03.300 It's just that you will not be exposed to, you know, the types of poisons that are infecting our food supply.
00:41:08.640 I mean, somebody has to ask the question, how is it that we spend five trillion dollars a year on health care and we are the sickest, fattest, most disease ridden nation in the world?
00:41:16.980 We lead the world in morbid obesity, type two diabetes, multiple chronic disease in a single biome, infant mortality and maternal mortality.
00:41:24.300 And everybody wants to just raise their hand and say it's working just fine.
00:41:27.920 Don't look over here at the statistics.
00:41:29.920 Look over here at the, you know, at the price and the availability of foods.
00:41:35.240 And and so this this report was purposely leaked.
00:41:40.080 There are some areas that I would agree have not yet gone far enough, but reports not final.
00:41:45.260 There are some areas that people would argue have gone too far.
00:41:47.920 But Bobby is is towed the line, you know, masterfully on getting a lot of these companies, chemical companies, agricultural companies, food companies and even pharma to come to the table ahead of these legislative changes.
00:42:00.460 And at the state level, he's succeeding in such a way that we've created a patchwork, a framework that now companies have to try to work around.
00:42:10.980 So it's becoming less expensive to conform than it is to fight this agenda.
00:42:17.460 So I think that, you know, the fight has only just begun.
00:42:19.600 You know, you're talking about an industry with a multi-trillion dollar war chest also that has a media narrative that's very cooperative to their messaging.
00:42:28.820 But I don't think it's going to succeed.
00:42:30.940 I mean, it's becoming very unpopular for politicians to be on the other side of the Maha movement.
00:42:34.960 Can you hang over a second because I want to hold you to a commercial break?
00:42:41.000 You just talked about the one thing I think has even changed from 2016 when President Trump first came in is the consolidation of some of these industries.
00:42:49.560 Big ag, big pharma, you know, big finance, big tech, that the concentration of power and their brutal use of lobbyists and law firms.
00:42:58.720 I mean, the concentration of power, so somebody like Bobby Kennedy, which was tough enough to fight a decade ago, to fight it now is almost, you know, incomprehensible about the pressure that's on every day.
00:43:10.500 So we're going to take a short commercial break.
00:43:12.000 HomeTitleLock.com, promo code Steve.
00:43:14.820 The $1 million triple lock protection.

00:43:30.180 Make sure it doesn't turn into a nightmare by somebody getting their hands on your title.
00:43:34.140 Short commercial break.
00:43:35.780 According to the Department of Energy, blackouts could increase by 10,000% over the next few years.
00:43:41.020 It's because of massive energy demand from artificial intelligence data centers.
00:43:45.700 We talk about that all the time here in the War Room.
00:43:48.600 And we have a fragile power grid.
00:43:50.640 It just cannot keep up with that demand.
00:43:52.700 I don't know about you, but I don't like the idea of being without power, even for a day.
00:43:57.100 That's why I got the Grid Doctor 3300 from MyPatriotSupply.
00:44:02.000 It's a powerful solar generator that runs refrigerators, AC units, medical devices, power tools, anything you need to write out a blackout.

00:44:46.000 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:44:48.500 Welcome back.
00:44:51.920 So, Gary, give me a couple of minutes on how the science can help.
00:44:56.460 Bobby Kennedy is essentially on a crusade that we back him on.
00:45:00.400 And the Maha and Maga moment coming together in 2024 is what led to this amazing victory with President Trump as our head.
00:45:07.620 But, like I said, the consolidation of power under Biden because Lena Kahn and everybody, they were just kind of thrown out.
00:45:15.620 There was no control of the concentration of corporate power.
00:45:19.240 And now you've got these oligarchs that are even – the tech side are even worse.
00:45:22.760 How does Kennedy fight it?
00:45:24.780 And how can this audience help, sir?
00:45:27.280 He fights it the same way that –
00:45:29.780 He froze.
00:45:35.420 He froze?
00:45:36.140 Okay.
00:45:36.960 We'll get him unfrozen in a second.
00:45:38.780 Let's go ahead and – can we reboot him?
00:45:39.960 Do we have time to reboot him?
00:45:42.180 I want to get that answer.
00:45:44.840 Bobby Kennedy is fighting a tough fight.
00:45:48.480 I've got to tell you, this leaked report and what they were trying to show is, oh, Bobby's – you know, he's succumbed to pressure from industry.
00:45:54.800 President Trump's on back – nothing can be farther from the truth.
00:45:58.040 President Trump backs him a full tilt boogie.
00:46:02.220 Tej Gill, you know, all the guys came over and they're all talking big as you and I talked about.
00:46:07.820 They're all going to have security guarantees.
00:46:09.540 They're all going to have troops.
00:46:10.540 They're going to have boots on the ground.
00:46:11.480 President Trump can just be a – we can just coordinate.
00:46:13.720 They're going to do this.
00:46:14.460 They're going to do that.
00:46:15.900 Care Stormer's not off the freaking plane where the head of the British military is sitting there going, well, no, I think we're going to – we'll take one of the ports.
00:46:25.340 And maybe, you know, look at the sky.
00:46:27.340 We'll do the air.
00:46:28.580 But we can't have boots on the ground.
00:46:30.020 We certainly can't have them at the front because everybody knows this is going to be the West Bank to the 1,000th power.
00:46:36.360 Because, folks, 2 million people have been killed and wounded over there, and the place looks like Belgium in – it looks like Flanders Field in 1917, 1918.
00:46:50.440 So it's ridiculous.
00:46:52.940 I thank you so much given – I don't know.
00:46:54.600 You spent – you had 18 tours in various hellholes defending your country.
00:46:59.680 Right now you're the premier coffee maker in the world.
00:47:02.480 Talk to me about your coffee, sir.
00:47:03.660 Yeah, 16, Steve, 16 tours over there.
00:47:07.520 But, yeah, Warpath Coffee, it's the best coffee.
00:47:12.920 Keir Starmer should be drinking it or bringing it back to reality.
00:47:15.860 It's – warpath.coffee is a website.
00:47:19.540 And, as always, use promo code WARROOM.
00:47:22.840 You get 20% off.
00:47:25.060 And it's no gimmicks.
00:47:27.280 It is literally the best coffee out there.
00:47:29.940 All you have to do is look at the reviews.
00:47:31.280 We have 12,500 five-star reviews on the website, which is a huge number of reviews for a website.
00:47:38.520 Usually you only see those kind of numbers on some of these super high-volume Amazon stores.
00:47:43.720 And we have those actually on our website.
00:47:45.420 So, just go on the reviews, read the website.
00:47:49.660 We roast it on a perforated drum, and that makes the coffee – we don't burn it.
00:47:54.580 We don't even burn the tips of the beans.
00:47:56.040 So, roasting it on a perforated drum is the key, the way we roast it.
00:47:59.200 And we use premium beans, and they're always fresh.
00:48:02.700 We're not buying cheap beans from India or wherever.
00:48:06.080 You know, we use premium beans from South and Central America.
00:48:09.820 We pay the price for them, and they are amazing.
00:48:12.920 So, you don't need any milk, any sugar.
00:48:16.100 You can just drink it straight black.
00:48:17.680 It's warpath.coffee, and use promo code WARROOM.
00:48:21.080 You get 20% off.
00:48:22.060 You're part of the WARROOM posse.
00:48:24.280 Not can you – so, the theory of the case in making this was my man is a former naval personnel, one of our commandos, Navy SEALs, right?
00:48:36.280 And, of course, in the Navy, you have to drink Navy brew all the time, whether you're going on a mid-watcher or a destroyer or you're in your 16th deployment as a contractor or SEAL.
00:48:48.780 And Navy brew is normally burned, right, because coffee's been on forever, and they don't get the best.
00:48:56.420 They don't get the best.
00:48:57.700 So, Tej's thing when he went from my – when he headed out my security detail to starting his own company, he says we've got to make the best in the world.
00:49:06.020 You have made the best in the world.
00:49:07.940 You don't – not only do you not need cream and sugar, because that's all to kill the acidity.
00:49:12.720 That's why – it's the acidic nature of coffee.
00:49:15.120 That's why people do it, because they still want the kick of the caffeine.
00:49:19.980 Here's the theory of the case with Warpath Coffee, and the reason it has 12,500 five-star reviews, folks, the coffee is made to be consumed as coffee is meant to be consumed, and that is black.
00:49:33.120 This is the champagne of coffees.
00:49:35.500 I know because I'm a coffee aficionado, right?
00:49:38.060 I live on coffee, and this is the best.
00:49:40.120 I told Tej at the time, and it took him years to perfect it.
00:49:43.780 This wasn't slapped together at the last second.
00:49:47.100 And Tej really went through this very systematically and thoroughly.
00:49:51.700 And like you said, you wanted to have coffee for the seals that was as good as the equipment that you used to fight with, right?
00:49:58.900 And we have – you guys have the best equipment.
00:50:00.820 You wanted the best coffee, sir.
00:50:03.280 That's right.
00:50:03.960 That's right.
00:50:04.740 Everything I do, I always modify everything and tweak it and make it the best, like my cars, my guns, my kids, everything.
00:50:12.040 So the coffee, you know, I didn't want to put a crappy product out there.
00:50:17.320 I didn't want to have a gimmick coffee.
00:50:19.140 Like 90% of the coffee out there, it's burnt, and it's bitter, and it's acidic.
00:50:23.380 So we put forward the best coffee.
00:50:28.300 It's smooth.
00:50:29.680 You can drink it straight black.
00:50:30.800 Even the dark roast, it's still dark, but it's smooth.
00:50:34.900 It's not like bitter and sour and sharp.
00:50:37.940 It doesn't taste like you're drinking – like you're sucking on copper.
00:50:41.620 No.
00:50:43.000 When you did it, I said the test will be – and you named it the Mariner's Blend.
00:50:47.420 I appreciate that.
00:50:48.160 But the dark roast, which took us a couple of years, took you a couple of years to perfect it.
00:50:51.560 I kept saying, hey, I don't think you did it yet.
00:50:53.340 You did it.
00:50:54.080 And this is – and I love dark roast.
00:50:56.240 I won't drink anything but dark roast.
00:50:58.120 I will drink his espresso.
00:51:00.300 I won't drink the blends.
00:51:01.740 People love the blends.
00:51:02.820 People come to me and say, hey, Steve, the holiday blends he has.
00:51:07.320 In fact, I think it's somewhere so popular you sell it year-round.
00:51:10.060 We don't – but I am a drink it hot and drink it black.
00:51:15.280 And I'm telling you, this is the champagne of coffee.
00:51:17.160 It's the best coffee I've ever had flat out.
00:51:19.120 And don't take it from me because, you know, I don't do a lot of salesy stuff here.
00:51:22.900 Don't take it from me and don't take it from Tej.
00:51:26.060 Take it from people just like yourself that went and tried it.
00:51:29.580 And these are all coffee drinkers.
00:51:32.260 Tej, one more time.
00:51:33.120 Where do people go?
00:51:33.720 Warpath.coffee is promo code WARROOM.
00:51:37.560 It's 20% off right now.

00:52:11.480 President Trump trying to bring peace to the world.
00:52:14.340 And, of course, the deadbeats of the European elites.
00:52:18.200 Not exactly helping him out.
00:52:19.960 We'll be covering it all.
00:52:20.920 I'll be up on Getter all afternoon.
