00:00:00.000 We'll certainly focus on that little story, but what I suggest to you as journalists is that there's two really bigger stories that you might want to report on and even do some research on, because these are big issues.
00:00:23.260 This is not about me. One of the big stories is about what is really an unprecedented assault on the constitutional separation of powers and the doctrine of executive privilege as a critical tool dating back to George Washington,
00:00:50.560 of effective presidential decision making. When I walk in that prison today, the justice system such as it is will have done a crippling blow for the constitutional separation of powers and executive privilege.
00:01:03.560 The second and related story has to do with the emergence of lawfare and the partisan weaponization of our justice system,
00:01:20.560 which we have seen come to this country with a vengeance since the coming of Donald John Trump as president.
00:01:29.560 And that keeps getting worse. So let me walk you through those two stories. And again, I'm hoping as journalists, you will you will do some background, some research.
00:01:42.560 I'm asking you to fact check everything I say today and write the bigger stories here, which I think are the important ones.
00:01:54.320 So let's let's talk about some facts here. I am the first senior White House.
00:02:01.340 Okay, right there. That was historic 19 March of the year 20 year of our Lord 2024.
00:02:10.460 Dr. Peter Navarro, that is right outside the prison in in Miami. And Peter, what I always admired about you, totally unflappable.
00:02:19.460 People got to understand when you're about to step into prison because you don't know what's on the other side.
00:02:23.680 You're calm, collective. It's just like you're right at Pebble Beach today talking about an EU trade deal.
00:02:31.800 You walk through the separation of powers, you walk through executive privilege and you talk about you're the first senior member of a White House staff ever to go to prison on for standing up and defending the president of the United States, sir.
00:02:44.340 Well, I wish the journalists had taken my advice and actually done their homework, but you and I got to do it for them.
00:02:54.700 That's why I wrote the book. I went to prison. So you won't have to.
00:02:57.460 That's why that Breitbart article is out today and why that Breitbart article is really important and really explains the whole kind of conspiracy against Donald Trump in a way which ties everything.
00:03:13.340 everything together. It's like people know about the Russia hoax.
00:03:19.200 They might know about Arctic Frost. They might know about all these these different kinds of things, but nobody really has weaved together the whole theme of this.
00:03:29.840 And the thing that ties it all together is this tale of Walter Giardina, the FBI agent.
00:03:37.760 And I call him the Forrest Gump from the Hades. He pops up literally everywhere.
00:03:42.960 And thanks to Senator Grassley for getting all this out. Thanks to the whistleblowers inside the FBI.
00:03:52.260 But but we need to get to the bottom of all this, Steve, because if we don't hold these people accountable, they'll do it again.
00:03:59.860 Oh, no, we're going to do that. They'll do it. But I don't want to give to I don't want to give to go ahead.
00:04:06.880 I don't want to give away too much of the book because I want people to read it, particularly your discussion about in prison.
00:04:12.140 And it's very important, folks. Peter Navarro was over 70 years old when they put him in prison and he took it like a soldier, just like a trooper.
00:04:19.860 I do want to, though, before I let you go about this FBI agent, this you're a senior advisor to the president and people should understand as an assistant to the president, that is the equivalent of a major general.
00:04:32.660 I think the rank is a major general in the Army, the Air Force or Admiral in the Navy.
00:04:36.920 You served honorably. You really changed the direction of this country by being the manufacturing and trade and tariff senior advisor to the president that has changed the arc of American history, American economic history for working class people in the middle class, not just now, but for generations to come.
00:04:56.240 You were at Reagan National and for what basically was a civil dispute between we refused to testify, which we now know was an illegal committee that they all got pardons for and all illegitimate pardons on the auto pen.
00:05:11.520 But we'll deal with that another day. We know the criminality of their staffs who went over there and begged for those pardons because they knew the crimes they were committing against myself, Peter Navarro, but most importantly, the president of the United States to try to put him in prison.
00:05:23.300 They went to National Airport and they basically went there to humiliate you.
00:05:29.800 They went there. They dragged you out. They put you in chains. They gave you the handcuffs to go around, but also the leg irons.
00:05:37.920 What they did is absolutely unacceptable and they're going to pay for it.
00:05:41.880 Not just that FBI guy, but everybody that signed off. And I want them to know and their lawyers know we're coming for you guys and we're coming hard.
00:05:48.780 And there's a lot of work behind the scenes to make sure that you go to prison and when you go to prison, it ain't going to be for four months.
00:05:55.920 It's going to be for four years plus. Dr. Navarro, your closing thoughts on this topic.
00:06:01.140 We're going to have you a lot on between now when we do the book launch, doing an official book launch on the 13th of September and a place to be determined.
00:06:08.820 We're going to announce that in the next couple of weeks.
00:06:10.420 Look, Steve, you and I, look, I think it's fair to say we're warriors.
00:06:20.200 We know what we got into when we got into fighting all of the people that we have to fight every day or trying to destroy this country.
00:06:29.020 But I'll never forgive them for particularly Walter Giordina is perp walking my fiance out of there that you don't involve family.
00:06:40.380 I live literally across the street from the FBI as a field goal kicker back in the day.
00:06:46.420 I could literally kick a football into their into their top floor there.
00:06:51.840 And they chose to do what they did.
00:06:55.320 So I went to prison.
00:06:58.040 So you won't have to on your wake up call.
00:07:01.300 If they can come for me, they can come for Donald Trump.
00:07:04.300 If they can come for Steve Bannon.
00:07:06.000 Steve, you and I went to prison.
00:07:08.440 They can come for the rest of you.
00:07:10.620 So let's let's get them.
00:07:13.200 I'm an Old Testament kind of guy.
00:07:15.660 It's not about retribution.
00:07:17.200 It's about holding them accountable.
00:07:20.680 I don't know.
00:07:22.380 You see, Navarro, you're not a particularly religious guy, but you're a good man.
00:07:26.960 So you're not for retribution.
00:07:28.120 I'm retribution, baby.
00:07:29.460 I'm all for it.
00:07:30.880 I'm a big believer in retribution, particularly for these scumbags.
00:07:35.520 No, we got to hold them accountable.
00:07:37.860 Anyway, Peter, where they go for your social media, where they go to get the book.
00:07:42.460 It's extraordinary.
00:07:43.600 The Breitbart article we're putting up.
00:07:45.700 Go ahead, sir.
00:07:47.160 Yep.
00:07:48.140 One thing I want to show you one thing.
00:07:50.660 I want to show you your audience today on Pebble Beach.
00:07:53.140 Everybody watching the World Room.
00:07:54.820 Okay.
00:07:55.500 We got we got the entire press corps here watching this.
00:08:02.040 Anyway, go.
00:08:03.100 They know we're up to no good.
00:08:04.080 Go to Amazon.com and I went to prison so you won't have to.
00:08:10.480 Buy the book.
00:08:11.620 If you're not reading books anymore, buy one for a friend.
00:08:14.440 Love that cover.
00:08:15.100 The important thing is to get the message out.
00:08:18.040 And that's why I wrote the damn thing.
00:08:19.600 So always a pleasure to talk to you, Mr. Bannon.
00:08:23.840 And let's get it.
00:08:25.460 Always, sir.
00:08:27.960 And thank you for co-hosting in my absence.
00:08:30.120 By the way, they're over there.
00:08:31.280 The media is over there because they think you're breaking all kind of scoops over here.
00:08:34.580 They see real America's voice.
00:08:36.400 And then Navarra, they know it's going to be trouble.
00:08:38.540 Peter, thank you so much, man.
00:08:40.000 Love you, brother.
00:08:40.760 Love you.
00:08:41.100 That's right.
00:08:42.180 It's a great book.
00:08:43.300 God got you, brother.
00:08:44.240 We're going to get to more aspects of two.
00:08:48.560 Dr. Peter Navarra, my older brother.
00:08:50.480 John Solomon joins us now.
00:08:52.580 John, you've been at the forefront, the tip of the spear on this investigation to set things right.
00:08:58.620 I know you've got a bunch of updates on what Clinton and the Clinton Foundation,
00:09:02.200 but you're going to show us a little ankle on a big story you're going to break this afternoon,
00:09:07.080 hopefully by the time you're on live at 6 o'clock.
00:09:09.580 What do you got for us?
00:09:10.260 Steve, this just happened a few seconds ago.
00:09:13.700 A New York appeals court has thrown out the $515 million judgment that Letitia James imposed
00:09:19.900 on President Trump, calling it a violation of the Eighth Amendment's prohibition against
00:09:26.120 excessive penalty against Americans.
00:09:28.760 This is a major win for the president.
00:09:30.580 It just happened about 30 seconds ago up on just the news.
00:09:33.280 But the unraveling of the weaponization of this entire 10 years that we've been through is starting to witness in our eyes.
00:09:42.860 When a New York Democrat appeals court throws out something against Donald Trump,
00:09:49.000 you know the abuses were bad.
00:09:50.240 That just happened a few seconds ago.
00:09:51.800 Let me tell you what I'm working on.
00:09:52.840 There were some documents we had on your show last week.
00:09:55.500 We leaned into it on your show about the leaks and all the leaks coming out of the FBI.
00:10:00.020 In that memos, there was a large redacted chunk of thing that I knew to be, from my own prior reporting,
00:10:07.720 something to be very significant.
00:10:09.380 It's going to delve specifically about what was going on in James Comey's inner circle when it came to leaking classified information
00:10:15.980 and leaking other important things because of the good work of Pam Bondi and Kash Patel.
00:10:22.860 They're two sides working together.
00:10:24.960 They were able to unredact or erase the redactions.
00:10:30.220 And tonight we're going to be able to see for the first time how much the United States government knew about what was going on
00:10:35.540 in James Comey's inner circle without creating any punishment for him or the people around him.
00:10:41.600 So we'll be getting that soon, but this is a big moment in some of these events.
00:10:47.300 Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
00:10:49.140 Hang on, hang on.
00:10:50.580 I want to make sure I understand this.
00:10:52.140 This is actually going to directly tie Comey now.
00:10:55.480 Comey with the head of the FBI with releasing classified information and to try to drive some narratives.
00:11:02.920 Is that what you're telling me?
00:11:04.560 The memo is clearly about the leaks investigation.
00:11:07.120 There was a section about James Comey that had been previously redacted.
00:11:10.120 So we'll see what it says.
00:11:12.060 I don't want to get ahead of my skis.
00:11:13.880 I want to be fair to everybody.
00:11:15.200 Let's do the reporting.
00:11:16.100 But I did know, and I fought for a week to get this information redacted.
00:11:19.740 And to the credit of the attorney general, to the credit of the FBI director, who, by the way, have a thousand other jobs,
00:11:25.020 like saving people in D.C. from crime and everything, they took the time to look at this.
00:11:29.460 They agreed that it didn't need to be redacted, that it is important to the American public.
00:11:33.420 Those documents are going to be transmitted to Congress.
00:11:35.560 I think we'll know about them shortly, but there are secrets, deep secrets, about the FBI and the James Comey era we still don't know about.
00:11:44.420 And I think we're beginning to get a picture of what the Justice Department looked like under Jeff Sessions and Rod Rosenstein.
00:11:54.260 I think there were moments of information that were available to that Justice Department and that some of the failures of accountability don't go back to the Obama era,
00:12:03.440 like the things we talked about last week.
00:12:05.920 But some of them rest on the first Justice Department under Donald Trump.
00:12:11.340 Case in point, this morning we have a really important story.
00:12:14.520 It shows that after the FBI was turned down, not once, not twice, but three times for investigating corruption against Hillary Clinton's foundation,
00:12:22.340 three years later, the IRS got contacted by whistleblowers.
00:12:26.340 One of them was the DEA's, one of their top counterterrorism intelligence analysts for a long time.
00:12:33.560 He actually testified at some famous post-9-11 hearings, very decorated, very trusted, all across the law enforcement committee.
00:12:40.480 They believe that the Clinton Foundation and other nonprofits and corporations working with them were involved in an illegal tax scheme.
00:12:47.820 The IRS agents on the front lines, just like the IRS agents who were pursuing Hunter Biden right around the same time, ironically,
00:12:54.880 they started building a big case and they're working with the whistleblowers and they're moving forward.
00:12:59.020 They're even talking about treating the whistleblowers as confidential witnesses.
00:13:02.320 And all of a sudden it gets shut down.
00:13:04.660 Just, we can't talk about it anymore.
00:13:06.060 We're done.
00:13:07.040 That went on Donald Trump's tenure.
00:13:09.120 First time.
00:13:09.820 That's what we're starting to see.
00:13:14.320 Hold it.
00:13:15.540 Are you, you're going to be able to show that the justice department under Rod Rosenstein and Sessions shut that investigation down?
00:13:25.340 They did.
00:13:26.000 Oh, the documents are up on our site.
00:13:27.580 You can go on the site now.
00:13:28.940 You know what the excuse was?
00:13:29.880 They didn't have enough resources to look at the Clinton Foundation.
00:13:32.940 Come on now.
00:13:33.400 Really?
00:13:33.680 The IRS had 87,000 agents and plenty of people.
00:13:37.320 Yeah.
00:13:37.760 The deep state was deep, even in the Trump administration.
00:13:43.140 You're breaking something every day.
00:13:44.900 Where do people go to get the show?
00:13:46.520 Where do they go to get the Solomon Reports?
00:13:49.640 Just the News?
00:13:50.280 All of it.
00:13:50.780 And your Twitter feed?
00:13:51.660 Because people have got to stay up on this, brother.
00:13:53.020 You're breaking big news every day.
00:13:55.220 The show.
00:13:55.820 I follow you every night at 6 o'clock on Real America's Voice.
00:13:58.240 Proud to do that.
00:13:59.040 Just the News.
00:13:59.460 No noise.
00:14:00.040 The website, just the news.com.
00:14:01.560 My social media, Jay Solomon reports on all platforms.
00:14:06.120 Incredible.
00:14:06.900 Tonight on his show, by that time, hopefully we'll have everything pulled together in this Comey situation.
00:14:12.320 Wow.
00:14:13.320 And to know they didn't pursue the Clintons because of lack of resources.
00:14:16.640 Maybe you would have run that up the flagpole and seen who's...
00:14:20.960 It's embarrassing.
00:14:21.620 It's redonkulous.
00:14:23.020 It's redonkulous.
00:14:23.940 John Solomon, thank you, brother.
00:14:25.800 Appreciate you breaking time out this morning to do this.
00:14:29.740 He's got to go to John Solomon's every day.
00:14:31.760 He's probably the tip of the spear right now, breaking these stories.
00:14:35.180 Because I think people realize it's a pretty safe pair of hands to be able to get information to.
00:14:40.980 Extraordinary.
00:14:41.780 Just extraordinary.
00:14:42.780 What a morning.

00:14:57.960 Next.
00:14:58.220 This July, there is a global summit of BRICS nations in Rio de Janeiro.
00:15:04.680 Remember, the block 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.
00:15:15.840 They're calling this the Rio Reset.
00:15:18.740 As BRICS nations push forward with their plans, global demand for U.S. dollars will decrease, 0.57
00:15:23.780 bringing down the value of the dollar in your savings.
00:15:26.700 While this transition won't not happen overnight, but trust me, it's going to start in Rio.
00:15:32.880 The Rio Reset in July marks a pivotal moment when BRICS objectives move decisively from
00:15:39.400 a theoretical possibility towards an inevitable reality.

00:17:11.880 If you're on Getter, you would have seen from O Dark 30 this morning, I started putting up with this boldface reality check.
00:17:18.440 And I think I put up a half a dozen articles about what the reality in Ukraine is.
00:17:24.580 And I think we're directionally where this is going to head.
00:17:28.800 And I'm proud.
00:17:29.840 You know, Ben Harnwell's in Rome going to join us here momentarily.
00:17:31.940 I'm very proud that between Ben Harnwell and Jack Posobiec, myself and the others that we had on here, going back to February and March of 2022 at the beginning of this come total and complete, beyond a fiasco now, tragedy.
00:17:46.980 And the people that drove this and the people that we fought all along, the blood that's on their hands is never going to be able to wiped out.
00:17:54.120 Because now I think we understand the scale of this and it makes sense.
00:17:58.940 Everything that happened over the last week from Friday in Alaska all the way through the dog and pony show that these Europeans try to put on for President Trump in the Oval Office and then later at the Ukrainian embassy beforehand with the general cataloging team. 0.65
00:18:18.220 Of which, by the way, I think we need to start having some accountability because I'm not sure information is getting to all the right sources.
00:18:28.860 So let me go back.
00:18:29.660 If you want to get it, you saw it this morning.
00:18:33.200 Immediately upon their return to Europe, the Germans said we don't have the resources to put anybody on the line of contact to really have anything to do with security guarantees.
00:18:46.220 Maybe we can put up some money or maybe some weapons.
00:18:48.740 And gosh, one of the reasons we don't have manpower is because we have a whole battalion that we put up in, I think, Latvia.
00:18:56.760 Right.
00:18:56.960 We put a whole battalion of people up there and we're really strapped.
00:19:00.120 Of course, this is a country that's got it's trying to get manpower and they can't get people to serve.
00:19:03.880 Why?
00:19:04.140 Because only nine percent of German, I think it's men, want to defend their country.
00:19:09.800 So that's Germany.
00:19:10.500 UK, Starmer gets off the plane and the head of the head and this was on report on the Guardian.
00:19:16.180 I put it up another article.
00:19:18.260 They report right away.
00:19:19.620 Starmer doesn't have the resources.
00:19:21.100 The military is sitting there going.
00:19:22.200 We cannot be in the line of contact.
00:19:23.680 Maybe we can take a port and maybe we can, you know, defend Odessa.
00:19:28.040 Maybe we put some people in the port or maybe in the air.
00:19:30.500 Now, this is the same Navy that's not giving us virtually no help while the United States Navy keeps the Suez Canal open so that 97 percent of the goods and services that go through there are the goods that serve Europe and keep Europe connected to Asia and also to the to the Middle East.
00:19:47.820 So England's out and they're also financially a debacle.
00:19:51.220 And as you know, they're going to need their own troops for the coming civil war in England, which is going to happen.
00:19:56.480 And Macron goes up and he's talking big talk.
00:20:00.760 He's big talking Macron.
00:20:02.200 He's Napoleon, you know, the fifth or whatever it is.
00:20:05.020 He's talking big talk.
00:20:06.280 He's the embodiment of De Gaulle.
00:20:08.880 And the Politico does an amazing piece, Politico Europe.
00:20:12.340 They got a good team over there and they eviscerate all of them.
00:20:15.900 And remember, Politico is not exactly war room, right?
00:20:18.260 They eviscerate all of them and say, hey, these guys don't have the finances.
00:20:21.560 They got massive economic problems.
00:20:24.080 They don't have enough military for their own.
00:20:26.160 And plus, you know, France has got its own issues, what they've done to allow these radical jihadists into their country.
00:20:34.320 So that's out.
00:20:35.220 Poland didn't even get on the plane. 0.77
00:20:36.920 You know why Poland didn't get on the plane? 0.95
00:20:38.340 They didn't want to embarrass President Trump by putting some phony front up.
00:20:42.880 Now, what got revealed, and this is coming from different Russian sources, but it's been kind of verified.
00:20:47.500 Maybe the number is not totally accurate.
00:20:49.160 But they're saying Russian cyber hackers have released information that show that Ukraine has 1.7 million casualties, dead and wounded.
00:20:57.220 Now, the reason this kind of or at least directionally makes sense, President Trump keeps talking about classified information that he's seen that shows you the killing is much worse.
00:21:05.320 And that's what he wants to stop is a killing.
00:21:07.980 What this reinforces, particularly when you look at the scale, it's not 2022 and 2023.
00:21:13.220 In 2025, according to these hackers, and they supposedly back it up, and there's a lot of these podcasts now that are going through some of the details, 625,000 dead and wounded Ukrainians since the beginning of this year.
00:21:28.580 This kind of makes sense because this is why it's been a massive fight in their parliament by parents saying, you're not taking my young sons and daughters.
00:21:37.280 It's not going to happen, and they've stopped that.
00:21:39.540 But what they've done is open it up that people over 60 years old can go serve in the military.
00:21:44.740 Here's the brutal facts, and this is why the Russians won't agree to a ceasefire. 0.74
00:21:49.060 It's just the ironclad logical war.
00:21:51.320 The Europeans don't have the money, the resources to defend themselves. 0.98
00:21:54.180 This whole thing with Zelensky sitting there, well, I'm going to dig in here, and I'm going to – dude, if we don't put up the money and don't put up the arms – and I think now the fact is the more money we put up and the more arms, you're just going to have more dead Ukrainians. 0.99
00:22:08.260 I think Jack Posobiec, Ben Harnwell, Stephen K. Bannon, and others on this show back in the beginning days of the war back in 22 mentioned Professor Mersheimer.
00:22:19.900 You know, the EU elites are going to fight until the last Ukrainians dead. 0.99
00:22:24.700 Well, that's what they're doing.
00:22:26.720 This is pretty logical.
00:22:28.100 So I – and Hugo Lowe, the great Hugo Lowe over at The Guardian who does a really good job of covering President Trump.
00:22:35.200 Look, it's The Guardian, so it's going to be left-wing.
00:22:37.480 But he just said today on really good reporting, well-reported and looks like well-sourced from the White House, President Trump's kind of going, hey, I'm going to step back for a second.
00:22:46.460 I've kind of seen the playing field.
00:22:47.700 I've seen how these guys are not really stepping up, and I told them they had to.
00:22:50.840 Let Zelensky and Putin figure out if they can get into a room for a bilat. 0.99
00:22:54.140 If they do, then I'm around for a trilat, but I'm not going over. 0.92
00:22:58.220 I'm not making phone calls to make this meeting happen.
00:23:01.200 You know, good on you.
00:23:02.280 You got each other's numbers.
00:23:03.560 Let's make it happen.
00:23:05.620 I don't think we're going to be talking in the coming days, and I think this has got to be a reality check for people, and particularly those demons in the Senate that are trying to push through a $58 billion, another bailout package for the Ukrainians so Zelensky and that crew can griff more off the top. 0.84
00:23:21.240 Okay?
00:23:21.940 The blood – that is blood money.
00:23:23.940 Right now – because we're going to be in a situation that you're not talking about deal and you're not talking about, oh, this is a little bit territory, that.
00:23:31.300 You're going to be talking about a surrender.
00:23:34.580 The Europeans are not going to send any troops, full stop.
00:23:39.060 The Europeans are going to send virtually no money, full stop, because they ain't got it.
00:23:43.780 They're going to look up – they're going to look to Uncle Sugar to do both, and we need to sit there and go, you cannot continue to do this because more Ukrainians are going to die. 1.00
00:23:54.980 You have to accept some reality here.
00:23:58.220 I think you're looking at – and since we've called every shot on this right, I'm not so sure you're ever going to get to a quote-unquote deal.
00:24:05.400 I think now you're going to be looking at what I refer to as a surrender, unless Germany steps up with combat personnel, unless France steps up with combat personnel, unless the United Kingdom steps up with combat personnel, and my favorite, Georgia Phoney Maloney, unless she steps up with combat personnel, I don't know how this thing plays out because the Russians are going to stop – they're not going to stop the pounding. 0.86
00:24:32.740 And look at Russian history.
00:24:36.360 The leaders of Russia – and that's what Putin is, the KGB – they're not particularly sensitive to the fact that Russian soldiers die in combat.
00:24:44.840 They'll just keep putting them into the meat grinder. 0.97
00:24:47.500 Ben Harnwell, your thoughts and observations, sir.
00:24:51.560 Steve, that was an absolutely magisterial synthesis of everything that has happened in Europe over the last 48 hours.
00:24:58.900 Let me start with this Hugo Lowell story in The Guardian because that is – it's mentioned very, very subtly and the language is toned down.
00:25:12.560 But this is a fundamental shift for those who have eyes to see.
00:25:16.500 The suggestion coming out from the White House now that President Trump is just going to say – as you said, Steve, in your words, you know, you've got one another's numbers.
00:25:28.480 I'm going to pull back now.
00:25:29.820 Now, the official, according to this position, the informal position, is that Presidents Putin and Zelensky need to sit down and have a bilateral – at which point, after which point, President Trump will then come back on board and try and get involved with this trilateral meeting with himself.
00:25:52.600 That's simply not going to happen.
00:25:55.080 This is just diplomatic speak for President Trump doing what the war room audience has been on its knees begging for, which is basically to put his cards down on the table, say, fold, I'm out.
00:26:10.020 And that is the best thing anyone could hope for if they want peace.
00:26:15.500 Now, you said a few things, and I'm just going to go over them quickly.
00:26:19.200 I know we've got a break coming on in a couple of weeks.
00:26:21.300 Phony Maloney, you mentioned her. 1.00
00:26:24.120 I tweeted on this – I put it out, excuse me, on Geta earlier.
00:26:28.000 The bridge, the $16 billion – don't forget at least a tenth of the size of the economy of the United States.
00:26:35.600 So this equivalent $16 billion bridge between the peninsula and Sicily.
00:26:42.320 If – just to make the point absolutely explicit – if she really thought that Russia represented an existential threat to Italy, she'd be putting that money in tanks and not on a bridge to nowhere, which is due to the dodgy accounting at which Italians excel. 0.94
00:27:00.220 That is going to be considered as part of their 5% NATO defence commitments, which shows the absolute total hoax that this is.
00:27:10.200 The FT have an article, and this is what I posted a few hours ago, Steve.
00:27:13.600 The FT have an article saying even the Sicilians don't want this bridge, right?
00:27:17.200 That tells you how serious America's EU allies are and how much you can depend on these people.
00:27:26.060 Total hoax.
00:27:27.040 Steve, I know we've got a break coming up.
00:27:28.600 I have a very, very important point I'd like to make to do with what I think America's next steps should be.
00:27:34.800 Just in a couple of minutes' time.
00:27:36.640 Yeah.
00:27:36.820 We're going to take a short commercial break.
00:27:39.180 Birch Gold, the dollar's under assault.
00:27:43.320 The Jackson Hole, which we're going to cover Wall to Baltimore, is – the pal's going to speak.
00:27:50.140 Of course, President Trump's demanded the resignation of one of the governors of the Federal Reserve, first time in history.
00:27:55.000 Pretty extraordinary.
00:27:57.280 Lula and the CCP, the other BRICS nations, are trying to destroy the U.S. dollar. 1.00
00:28:03.500 Make sure you understand what this is all about and how it impacts you personally.

00:29:44.620 Okay, before I go back to Ben in Rome, tomorrow night at 6, I'm going to give everybody kind of appointment scheduling here.
00:29:59.580 The transhumanist temptation.
00:30:02.180 We talk a lot about artificial intelligence and, you know, the convergence of all these forces, right?
00:30:10.440 The transhumanism, what's in back of this.
00:30:16.020 Book is by Grayson Quay.
00:30:18.780 It's from Crisis, the publication house, which are extraordinary quality books.
00:30:24.600 Grayson has written a tremendous book here about the temptation, the risk of this.
00:30:29.260 Everybody tune in because it's going to be pretty extraordinary.
00:30:31.340 Couldn't be more excited about this.
00:30:33.760 We're going to try to get to him this morning for an introduction, but it looks like we're having a slight technical problem.
00:30:40.980 Back at the command ship, but that's okay.
00:30:43.460 Grayson Quay, the transhumanist temptation.
00:30:47.760 And remember, we talk a lot about the singularity, but in the singularity, the convergence, all those forces, the overarching concept is transhumanism.
00:30:55.700 To get beyond homo sapiens, to get beyond man.
00:30:59.160 And we're playing with dynamite.
00:31:01.220 I mean, really playing with dynamite.
00:31:03.360 And he's got a fantastic book that'll position in a Christian perspective.
00:31:08.520 I don't think we've had enough of that.
00:31:09.920 And so I've asked Joe, when I saw this book and read it, it was so extraordinary.
00:31:13.640 I asked Joe to track down Grayson.
00:31:15.960 So we're going to have him on.
00:31:16.780 Make sure you see it, you tune in, and we're also going to cut it up into different sections.
00:31:22.260 Make sure we can get it out on social media.
00:31:27.320 Ben Harnwell.
00:31:27.940 Folks, just remember that we've been, and it's not the fact that we've been 100% right, and oh, is it so great?
00:31:36.420 It has nothing to do with that.
00:31:38.160 It's the fact that you can see, when you understand the process of history, and if you really understand who the players are, because here's what sickens me.
00:31:45.200 If you go back and look at the coverage from Alaska with Putin all the way through, it's so stupid and so dumb and so dangerous.
00:31:55.940 And I include Fox here as one of the worst.
00:31:58.340 But Fox, MSNBC, CNN, it's so juvenile.
00:32:02.660 It's juvenile.
00:32:03.840 And it's dangerous.
00:32:05.240 Why is it dangerous?
00:32:07.120 Because now, and it makes sense why the European countries don't want to step in, number one, why they want to suck the United States into it.
00:32:15.380 They understand their own guilt, their own accountability.
00:32:18.380 And Boris Johnson, I think you make an argument for Boris Johnson almost as a war criminal for what he did, understanding the deal he trashed.
00:32:26.080 And he just said the other day, I think he used the phrase vomit-inducing of President Trump's meeting with Putin.
00:32:33.340 And I don't think he'd get any lower or more narcissistic than Boris Johnson.
00:32:37.940 But all the Europeans are that. 1.00
00:32:39.040 The guilt here, what they're going to describe later is who knew what and when did they know it.
00:32:44.880 And kept pushing this.
00:32:46.880 The Ukrainian people are going to be outraged. 0.99
00:32:48.760 And, hey, they're going to be coming looking for Russians because Russians, you know, were in combat.
00:32:53.180 But I've got to tell you, they're going to be looking for trials of people that knew what was going on and drove this for their own financial profit as far as armed dealers go.
00:33:04.260 And also, you know, the James Stavridis and the Atlantic Council and all that morning joke crowd, you know, Richard Haas, all of them.
00:33:12.680 Lies and misrepresentations.
00:33:14.540 Nothing but lies.
00:33:16.560 Nothing but lies.
00:33:18.260 And who knew this information and who knew the degree of the combat casualties?
00:33:24.240 Ukraine has played out.
00:33:26.140 These people are courageous.
00:33:27.680 These people are virtuous.
00:33:28.920 These people fought for what they were told was not just a good cause, but a cause that they had a shot of winning.
00:33:36.000 That was all a lie.
00:33:37.220 That was all done by the EU and Victoria Nuland and the Davos crowd and all of it.
00:33:43.100 And if you notice, they still go to the big conferences and they're going to Geneva and they're thinking great thoughts on TV all the time and writing their books.
00:33:51.500 While the people in Ukraine suffered this, this absolute tragedy and debacle.
00:33:56.400 And President Trump went out of his way with so much going on in the world, in the United States, went out of his way to put so much time and effort into this.
00:34:04.440 And I think you can see now, Ben, the reality that the Europeans have no intention. 0.94
00:34:10.800 First off, they have no possible – I just want to make sure people understand because we understand the financial condition of Europe.
00:34:16.940 We spend so much time there helping the populist nationalists, different parties get going, right?
00:34:22.220 We know what the reality is.
00:34:24.060 England is broke.
00:34:25.440 France is broke.
00:34:27.100 Germany is not broke, but they're trying to drive themselves into being broke, but they have a population that won't defend themselves. 0.98
00:34:32.540 The Poles are going to understand what's going on. 1.00
00:34:34.600 They said, count us out.
00:34:36.500 That's been one of our real true allies.
00:34:38.860 The Polish guy said, hey, we're not even coming over because we know who these deadbeats are, and we don't want to embarrass President Trump by taking his time up on something that's a joke.
00:34:48.120 24 freaking hours after this thing finishes, you go back, and they're all in their home countries, and they all sit there and go off.
00:34:55.960 All this talk about you need security guarantees, and you need Article 5, you need all this.
00:35:00.400 What they wanted to do was to suck the United States into that so the United States would get onto the very point of contact with the Russian army and defend it, and we will never allow that to happen.
00:35:14.560 And anybody there, Lindsey Graham's the blood on his hand and the Tom Cottons and all the big talk about freedom and democracy, would tell it to the 1.7 million that are dead or wounded in Ukraine.
00:35:26.400 Tell them, it's disgusting and revolting what you did.
00:35:31.680 And right now, the countries of Europe, for all their big talk and coming over and the flags and all that, they never had any intention because they don't have the capability.
00:35:40.840 They don't have the financial wherewithal.
00:35:42.940 They don't have the military wherewithal.
00:35:45.120 More importantly, they don't have the political will.
00:35:47.300 The people of those countries are not prepared.
00:35:49.500 They're prepared to do it when the United States is doing it, but when it comes back to them and says, hey, you actually got to pay up, I don't have no intention of doing that.
00:35:57.480 No intention.
00:35:58.580 That's where we are, and that's why you've got to put the S word on the table, the surrender word, okay?
00:36:05.740 Because unless the United States steps in here in a massive way for what Zelensky wants, remember, he's going to buy $100 million arms.
00:36:14.120 Think of the whole fiasco this week.
00:36:15.680 I'm going to do a $100 billion deal, right?
00:36:18.800 Well, first off, a guy has no money that we have to put the money up because Europeans aren't going to kick in that kind of dough. 1.00
00:36:24.480 We put the money up to buy weapons that our stocks are down.
00:36:28.740 Our production has to be for ourselves.
00:36:30.720 So it's a guy with no money buying from a country that doesn't have the weapons right now to support a guy that has no troops and no ability.
00:36:38.760 This is why they went to the 60-year-olds, and you're fighting a real war, an attrition.
00:36:44.600 This is not some global war on terror.
00:36:47.240 This is in the trenches, World War II, as only the Russians can give it to you.
00:36:52.920 You don't believe me?
00:36:54.080 Ask the Wehrmacht. 0.96
00:36:55.160 Ask the finest fighting machine the world had ever created, the German army in 1941, 42, 43.
00:37:01.580 Ask them how it turned out.
00:37:03.260 They got ground to dust.
00:37:05.380 You know why?
00:37:06.720 The Russians didn't mind if 30 million people died doing it, okay? 0.99
00:37:10.600 That's the difference in mentality.
00:37:12.900 That's what you're up against.
00:37:14.700 So keep giving the happy talk.
00:37:16.920 And President Trump, I think Hugo Lowe's article says it all.
00:37:20.940 And you know his reporting, Ben.
00:37:23.640 You can see it's very well sourced.
00:37:25.380 And President Trump's saying, hey, look, upon further review and saying that nobody backed me up here, that's reality.
00:37:30.560 Go get a meeting.
00:37:32.320 If you can get a meeting, have a bilat, right? 1.00
00:37:35.560 I've kind of put you guys in contact.
00:37:37.460 I got you the numbers.
00:37:38.800 Go get a bilat. 0.71
00:37:40.400 And let's see how that turns out.
00:37:42.320 If it's enough to make progress.
00:37:44.400 Because you have two things going on here.
00:37:46.140 You have process and you have substance, policy substance.
00:37:50.320 Process is to keep deal momentum, keep going.
00:37:52.900 And President Trump's trying to do that.
00:37:54.160 Then you got the substance.
00:37:55.280 And the Europeans just told you, oh, I think I'll take a port.
00:37:59.340 We'll stay in Odessa where the beach is.
00:38:01.600 And we'll hold down Odessa while the Americans go to the line of contact. 0.95
00:38:06.580 It is never going to happen.
00:38:10.120 Ben Harnwell.
00:38:13.160 Steve, before I respond to what you just said.
00:38:16.020 And by the way, you only said one thing that I slightly disagree with in that monologue.
00:38:21.500 And you mentioned that the Europeans were happy to play along as long as America was in there.
00:38:26.660 But the moment America's out, the Europeans are out. 1.00
00:38:29.840 I don't know if that's actually true.
00:38:31.440 I think the European support was only ever performative.
00:38:34.700 And it was fig leaf performatism.
00:38:37.720 Going back to the Biden regime, because Biden wanted to make it look as if there was a groundswell
00:38:42.920 from all the proponents of the rules-based international order coming in to protect Ukraine.
00:38:50.280 It was really an American project from start to finish.
00:38:54.500 American provoked.
00:38:55.840 And then this coalition of the willing.
00:38:59.320 But that's the only thing I would respond to what you said.
00:39:03.380 Before I go further, I really have to say that this article, if it's true, what Hugo Lowell says in The Guardian,
00:39:12.020 which I haven't been able to find sourced anywhere else in the media.
00:39:15.160 And I haven't seen any retraction or confirmation coming out of the White House at this moment.
00:39:19.420 But if that is true, Steve, that President Trump is based – I mean, folks, it's not going to happen.
00:39:26.000 The idea of a bilateral between Putin and Zelensky by themselves, it's not going to happen.
00:39:31.540 That's just like diplomatic speak for President Trump saying, I'm out.
00:39:34.720 If that is the actual position now of the administration and the president.
00:39:40.100 Hold it, hold it, hold it, hang on, hang on, hold, hold, hold, hold, hang on.
00:39:43.760 What he's prepared to do, what he's prepared to do, because he's got lots of troops.
00:39:48.040 All the lies you heard about, they're about to fall apart, about to fall apart.
00:39:51.360 He's got lots of troops.
00:39:52.720 And Applebaum, no friend of the war room, reported they had 675,000 combat troops ready for a summer offensive.
00:40:00.600 Take it.
00:40:01.100 She was right, right?
00:40:02.920 You see what's happening here.
00:40:04.280 I tell you what he's going to take a meeting for.
00:40:06.620 And they're going to say, oh, Bannon says, I'm not saying to surrender, but I'm telling you, give me the Europeans going to back these guys play right now.
00:40:13.500 The meeting that Putin will take is a surrender meeting.
00:40:16.380 That's the meeting he'll take.
00:40:18.060 I don't know if he's got a lot to talk about.
00:40:19.780 But the line of contact, which is the only important line here, give me a name, any name in Europe that's going to back up.
00:40:27.640 The Poles, who are our best and only true ally over there, wouldn't even come over for the meeting.
00:40:34.260 You know why?
00:40:34.760 They're not part of the coalition of the willing, because they understand the risk.
00:40:38.620 The German press today said, they interviewed the defense minister.
00:40:42.300 They said, oh, well, we took a battalion, we took a brigade or battalion, and we put them up in Lafayette.
00:40:48.560 We're tapped out.
00:40:49.660 OK, give me a break.
00:40:51.880 Give me a break.
00:40:52.720 This is a sick, demented, perverted joke.
00:40:57.320 And anybody on the TV that sits there and, oh, the great nations of Europe are coming together, they're broke.
00:41:02.940 They're gutless.
00:41:04.260 They're cowards.
00:41:05.380 They have no money.
00:41:06.440 They have no material.
00:41:07.760 They have no weapons.
00:41:09.340 They have no men, no personnel, nothing.
00:41:11.720 They haven't stepped up for anything.
00:41:13.940 And yet this fiasco goes on, and every day it goes on.
00:41:16.900 I think President Trump said 5,000 Ukrainians died, which I couldn't get my head around that number until I saw 625,000 Ukrainians have either been killed or wounded in 2025.
00:41:31.020 And we ain't to September yet.
00:41:32.520 Ben, I got to bounce.
00:41:33.920 You got a minute to wrap it up.
00:41:35.360 Tomorrow you're going to be on with me.
00:41:36.620 We're going to – Ben Harwell is going to make recommendations to the president about a way forward.
00:41:41.520 How about that?
00:41:42.300 So Ben Harwell in Rome, closing observations.
00:41:45.360 I know I've hogged the mic here, but I'm all worked up now.
00:41:47.660 My Warpath coffee got to me.
00:41:49.240 It kicked in.
00:41:51.080 Closing observation is this, Steve.
00:41:52.520 If this represents the position now of President Trump, this is exclusively a tribute to the power of the war room audience and Real America's voice.
00:42:03.660 It's not because of Fox or Newsmax or any other media organization that has put consistent pressure on the president with love and respect, but pleading with him to not keep this war going.
00:42:18.420 So that's what I would say.
00:42:20.520 Hang on, hang on, hang on.
00:42:21.760 If this is the position –
00:42:24.260 You'll give me some great – is anything I said about Europe from your perch in the Eternal City, is anything I said about these Europeans wrong? 0.55
00:42:33.460 No, Steve.
00:42:38.860 I mean, you've exposed the hypocrisy of – look, just give me one example.
00:42:45.060 I cited Italy earlier.
00:42:46.800 You mentioned that the 9% percentage of German youth that are willing to fight for Germany.
00:42:51.560 That's to fight for Germany. 0.96
00:42:53.840 Like, one in ten German kids will fight for their country.
00:42:57.620 What is it going to be to go over and schlep over to Ukraine and fight for Ukraine in an unwinnerable war?
00:43:03.820 Steve, it's zero.
00:43:04.520 It's not happening.
00:43:05.220 Everything you said was – no, not just today, not just in this show, but for three and a half years has been correct.
00:43:11.680 Put – real quickly, your social media, because you're putting great stuff up all day long.
00:43:17.060 Where did people go?
00:43:17.760 So, on Getter, Steve, my social media platform of choice, at Harnwell, which is my surname.
00:43:25.220 Perfect.
00:43:26.160 We do have contact with the mothership.
00:43:30.000 We're going to bring Grayson Quay in after a short commercial break.
00:43:34.920 Spread the word all through Hong Kong.
00:43:37.500 We will fight till they're all gone.
00:43:40.080 We rejoice when there's no more.
00:43:41.960 Let's take down the CCP.
00:43:44.980 If you're a homeowner, you need to listen to this.
00:43:47.180 In today's AI and cyber world, scammers are stealing home titles with more ease than ever, and your equity is the target.

00:43:57.900 Criminals forge your signature on one document. 0.99
00:44:00.480 Use a fake notary stamp.
00:44:02.280 Pay a small fee with your county, and boom, your home title has been transferred out of your name.
00:44:08.060 Then they take out loans using your equity or even sell your property.
00:44:13.220 You won't even know it's happened until you get a collection or foreclosure notice.
00:44:18.840 So let me ask you, when was the last time you personally checked your home title?
00:44:26.000 If you're like me, the answer is never.
00:44:28.900 And that's exactly what scammers are counting on.

00:45:06.160 Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann.
00:45:11.360 Through the wonders of modern technology, we actually can hook into the mothership.
00:45:17.040 Joe Allen's there.
00:45:17.840 Joe Allen's holding down the Fort Force.
00:45:19.680 And also Grayson Quay, the writer of an extraordinary book, The Transhumanist Temptation.
00:45:26.320 He's going to be interviewed by Joe for the 6 o'clock show tomorrow night.
00:45:30.540 I want everybody, because we're going to get back to this book and make sure everybody gets it, everybody reads it.
00:45:34.120 What is the transhumanist temptation?
00:45:36.520 We talk about transhumanism a lot.
00:45:38.960 Grayson, what's the temptation here?
00:45:42.620 Well, I wrote this book not necessarily for War Room viewers who are pretty keen on this issue, but for people who don't take the threat of transhumanism seriously, who think it's just this crazy fringe sci-fi thing that's far away.
00:45:54.000 And my argument in this book is, no, the transhumanist temptation is the same temptation from the Garden of Eden.
00:45:59.540 It's ye shall be as gods, which isn't a lie per se.
00:46:03.000 It's kind of a half-truth.
00:46:04.220 You know, if you believe in theosis, if you believe in kind of the promises God makes to his people to raise them up to be partakers of the divine nature and sons of God equal to the angels, there is truth in the statement you'll be as gods.
00:46:16.660 The lie that Satan tells there in the Garden is that you can have that deification, you can have that immortality and that power apart from a relationship with God and in defiance of God.
00:46:27.460 And that is what transhumanism promises us.
00:46:31.900 Do you think we're hurtling down a path?
00:46:33.760 I mean, is this just science fiction?
00:46:36.300 You know, Joe covers this for us for the last four years daily.
00:46:39.140 But is this science fiction or do you believe this is actually happening and it's got to be addressed today?
00:46:46.600 Yeah, no, I don't think it's science fiction.
00:46:48.120 And I think we leave ourselves vulnerable when we treat it as if it's something that's in the future.
00:46:51.920 It's right now.
00:46:53.060 Mary Harrington has her great book, Feminism Against Progress, where she says the birth control pill is the first transhumanist technology because it inverts what we have historically used medicine and technology as a whole for, which is we start with a standard of human flourishing.
00:47:08.800 We know what a healthy, flourishing human being looks like.
00:47:11.260 This informs our conceptions of natural law.
00:47:13.820 And we use our technology to either fix humans when they're broken or sick or advance sort of basic human goods that we're able to identify by looking at our nature and lead us toward this flourishing, this Aristotelian idea of eudaimonia.
00:47:27.360 The birth control pill or other transhumanist technologies basically say we're going to take something that's healthy and break it in accordance with the will or desires of someone and not informed by their nature.
00:47:39.640 Is there a possibility of having a Christian being a Christian transhumanist, sir?
00:47:45.960 Well, I don't think so.
00:47:48.680 I mean, I think, you know, if you're a Christian transhumanist, it's almost redundant in the sense if you believe that God's eventually going to glorify us and raise us to, you know, reign with Christ.
00:48:00.900 But if you're a Christian who believes that apart from God, we're going to use technology to raise ourselves to omnipotence and to immortality, then no, that's an inherently Luciferian project. 0.83
00:48:13.140 If you call yourself a Christian transhumanist and you're really committed to transhumanism as it's being practiced generally and as the term is generally meant, I think you've fallen under the sway of the forces of Antichrist. 0.97
00:48:28.040 Joe, tell us about your interview tomorrow night with Grayson on this extraordinary book.
00:48:34.240 Yeah, Steve, very much looking forward to it.
00:48:36.420 We'll be talking about his book.
00:48:38.260 We'll be talking about the perils of eugenic policies of, you know, selecting embryos, artificial intelligence, virtual reality.
00:48:48.500 But it would be very good to speak to a fellow traveler about his own perspective on this.
00:48:54.340 It's a very deep Christian perspective and also Catholic.
00:48:58.580 So, you know, it'll be kind of like talking to you, Steve, but maybe he won't yell at me.
00:49:03.880 No, that's what I got Grayson on.
00:49:04.840 He knows what he's talking.
00:49:05.580 He knows what he's talking about.
00:49:07.220 I just scream and yell.
00:49:08.020 Grayson, social media, where do people go to order this book?
00:49:11.700 The interview is going to be tomorrow night, but where do people in the interim get your social media and this book?
00:49:17.260 Yeah, social media.
00:49:18.300 I'm on X at Hemingway, H-E-M-I-N-G-Q-U-A-Y. 0.94
00:49:23.220 You can get the book on Amazon.
00:49:24.800 It's available as an audio book.
00:49:26.060 Good news, if you hate my voice, I don't read it.
00:49:28.060 There's a narrator who does that.
00:49:30.320 And the best place to get it, as always, is directly from the publisher.
00:49:33.080 That would be sophiainstitute.com slash transhuman.
00:49:36.840 These guys are the best.
00:49:39.980 Crisis Publishing, the people who are Sophia.
00:49:42.420 Joe, where do people go to get your social media, brother?
00:49:45.180 All your updates.
00:49:47.600 At J-O-E-B-O-T-X-Y-Z and JoeBot.X-Y-Z.
00:49:52.000 Thank you very much, Steve, and definitely tune in tomorrow night, War Room Posse.
00:49:55.040 The Transhumanist Temptation. 1.00
00:49:59.200 You're finally getting, I think, a serious Christian and Catholic perspective of this is the big thing that's before us, folks.
00:50:07.860 Guys, Grayson, Joe, thank you so much.
00:50:09.940 Appreciate you.
00:50:12.560 We're going to do something in the D.C. area, too.
00:50:14.700 We'll figure we've got to get this book out and get the thinking out.
00:50:18.580 Chris Hoare, my man.
00:50:20.120 I can't think of a better way to cap a show that's been on fire all day.
00:50:23.940 Start with Eric Schmidt.
00:50:25.020 You've got Chip Roy, Peter Navarro, John Solomon, Joe Allen, Ben Harnwell.
00:50:31.220 I mean, these are fighters all.
00:50:32.760 Chris Hoare, you always come on and you do something special for the War Room Posse.
00:50:36.900 You always give us a deal.
00:50:37.800 What do you got for us, brother?
00:50:39.620 Well, thanks, Steve.
00:50:40.720 We've got, obviously, Hurricane Aaron churning up the East Coast, and that does tell us that hurricane season is well underway.
00:50:46.140 And what we've got for you today, again, is the free satellite phone with a free Faraday case to protect that phone from all comers from cyber attacks and everything else.
00:50:56.860 You can use this Faraday bag to protect your cell phone.
00:51:00.120 You can also use it to protect your cell phone.
00:51:02.640 There's a lot of people out there, Steve, trying to steal your data, and they're doing it very easily unless you protect your phone with a Faraday bag.
00:51:09.240 So you've got a free Faraday bag.
00:51:10.640 You've got a free satellite phone.
00:51:12.660 Normally, that would cost you $1,000 or more.
00:51:14.560 You're paying just $85 a month.
00:51:16.500 You're getting 150 minutes.
00:51:18.120 And, Steve, if you get hit in an area that gets hit by a hurricane, as we know, the first thing to go wrong is the power grid goes down, and with it go the cell towers.
00:51:27.240 So you want to make sure that you're always able to stay in communication so you can call for emergency and reach out to others.
00:51:33.740 And the satellite phone will do that for you, Steve, as you know.
00:51:36.140 So you can go to sat123.com.
00:51:38.580 That's S-A-T-1-2-3.com.
00:51:40.860 Or you can call us at 941-841-0844.
00:51:45.960 That's 941-841-0844.
00:51:49.980 And today, you're getting the free satellite phone.
00:51:52.000 You're getting the free Faraday bag to protect your phone and your cell phone.
00:51:56.220 And that is just for $85 a month, and you're getting 150 minutes per month for your phone for that, Steve.
00:52:03.000 So it's a really great deal, and everyone is going to need one of these if you're in an area that's threatened by hurricanes at all.
00:52:08.980 One more time, because when you get these deals, there's only a limited supply.
00:52:15.180 Where do they go right now?
00:52:16.440 Because these things are going to go quick.
00:52:18.060 Where do they go?
00:52:19.240 Absolutely.
00:52:19.820 It's sat123.com, S-A-T-1-2-3.com, or call us 941-841-0844, Steve.
00:52:29.340 Okay.
00:52:30.300 Chris Hoare, look forward to having you back on here.
00:52:32.060 Thanks for doing this to the War Room Posse.
00:52:33.720 A special deal from the satellite phone guys.
00:52:36.560 Charlie Kirk next, Jack Posobiec after that, the great Steve Gruber.
00:52:43.920 Then you've got Eric Bolling.
00:52:44.980 We're back at 5 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time when you'll be back in the War Room.
00:52:52.220 The show this afternoon will be on fire.
00:52:54.940 See you then.
00:53:06.560 What if he had the brightest mind in the War Room delivering critical financial research every month?
00:53:12.900 Steve Bannon here.
00:53:13.980 War Room listeners know Jim Rickards.
00:53:15.640 I love this guy.
00:53:17.100 He's our wise man.
00:53:18.080 A former CIA, Pentagon, and White House advisor with an unmatched grasp of geopolitics and capital markets.
00:53:24.220 Jim predicted Trump's Electoral College victory exactly 312 to 226, down to the actual number itself.
00:53:34.080 Now he's issuing a dire warning about April 11th, a moment that could define Trump's presidency in your financial future.
00:53:41.680 His latest book, Money GPT, exposes how AI is setting the stage for financial chaos.
00:53:47.360 Bank runs at lightning speeds, algorithm-driven crashes, and even threats to national security.
00:53:53.340 Right now, War Room members get a free copy of Money GPT when they sign up for Strategic Intelligence.
00:53:59.940 This is Jim's flagship financial newsletter, Strategic Intelligence.
