Summary

Trump signs a bill to reopen the government after the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. He also takes a swipe at the media for its coverage of the shutdown and calls for a return to a more business-like government.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 On this vote, the yeas are 222. The nays are 209. The bill is passed. The motion is adopted.
00:00:10.700 For the past 43 days, Democrats in Congress shut down the government of the United States
00:00:16.060 in an attempt to extort American taxpayers for hundreds of billions of dollars for illegal
00:00:21.820 aliens and people that came into our country illegally from gangs, from prisons, from mental
00:00:28.660 institutions. They wanted to pay them $1.5 trillion, which would have really hurt our healthcare
00:00:35.220 businesses and our recipients at levels never seen before. Today, we're sending a clear message
00:00:42.860 that we will never give in to extortion, because that's what it was. They tried to extort. The
00:00:48.340 Democrats tried to extort our country. In just a moment, I'll sign a bill exactly like we asked
00:00:54.380 Democrats to send us all along, many days ago. This cost the country $1.5 trillion, this
00:01:02.440 little excursion that they took us on. Republicans never wanted a shutdown and voted 15 times for
00:01:09.540 a clean continuation of funding. There's never been a time when one or the other party ever
00:01:16.940 didn't sign a continuation. It's just a continuation, not a big deal. It's a continuation, and we'll
00:01:22.940 talk later. Yet the extremists and the other party insisted on creating the longest government
00:01:30.200 shutdown in American history, and they did it purely for political reasons. So with all
00:01:35.220 of that, I just want to tell you the country has never been in better shape. We went through
00:01:40.120 this short-term disaster with the Democrats because they thought it would be good politically,
00:01:46.420 and it's an honor now to sign this incredible bill and get our country working again. Thank
00:01:53.420 you very much.
00:01:55.420 Thank you very much.
00:02:02.420 Thank you very much.
00:02:10.420 Thank you very much.
00:02:16.420 I'm going to go down. It went the exact opposite with the biggest increase of any of health
00:02:27.600 care in any country. It's a disaster. And I'm calling today for insurance companies
00:02:34.320 not to be paid, but for the money, this massive amount of money to be paid directly to the
00:02:39.700 people of our country so that they can buy their own health care, which will be far better
00:02:44.460 and far less expensive than the disaster known as Obamacare. And I've had, I think, great support.
00:02:51.960 I've even had Democrat support. So we want the money that would be going to the insurance company,
00:02:57.220 which is hundreds of billions of dollars. You know, their stock prices have gone up by a thousand
00:03:02.880 percent in many cases, a thousand percent over a short period of time because our country stupidly
00:03:09.940 pays them so much money with this Obamacare scandal. So I want the money to go directly to you,
00:03:15.960 the people. And you go out and you'll buy your own health insurance and you'll negotiate different
00:03:21.600 plans and you'll get much better insurance and you will be an entrepreneur for yourself.
00:03:26.240 This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on
00:03:37.280 these people. I got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people, the people have had a
00:03:44.140 belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you've tried to do everything in the
00:03:47.820 world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen. And where do people like
00:03:51.420 that go to share the big line? MAGA media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people
00:03:59.060 had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my
00:04:06.980 country, this country will be saved. War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Vance.
00:04:14.200 It's Thursday, 13 November, Year of the Alert 2025. We are packed this morning. Mark Mitchell,
00:04:23.980 Richard Barris, Andrew Colvette is nice enough to join us from the Charlie Kirk Show. We're going
00:04:28.960 to talk about Charlie's plan. Rosemary Jenks, H-1B visas. We're also going to get Claire Dooley
00:04:35.800 talk, get us up to speed on what happened yesterday at the MAHA conference. I want to start with
00:04:40.880 Brett, my wingman. Brett, what was this all about? I mean, I really am lost. The Democrats
00:04:49.380 are so strong at the beginning of it, then cratered. We have lost, what, six or eight weeks
00:04:54.020 from the economy. President Trump said it's a $1.5 trillion hit to the economy. It was all
00:05:00.280 about the hill they would die on was the illegal alien healthcare, which they didn't get. We've
00:05:06.680 kicked the CR now through the holidays to essentially, you know, around, you know,
00:05:12.920 theoretically the inauguration we have every four years, I think around the 20th of January
00:05:17.160 of next year. But, you know, I don't see this crowd hammering out appropriations bills that can get
00:05:24.880 passed in the House and the Senate. So we may back just to an annual CR off of the CR we've been
00:05:31.240 dealing with for the last couple of years. You were here, and one of the big issues was the
00:05:38.640 Obamacare subsidies that kind of got bailed out during the pandemic when people really weren't
00:05:44.100 paying attention, and in particular when Biden came in. And now you've got this big issue with
00:05:50.580 all those that come out. You just heard President Trump right there with another idea. I think an
00:05:55.100 idea that might, a lot of people might say, that sounds pretty good. You were here when we had to deal
00:06:00.220 with this the last time. So first off, walk me through the shutdown. What do you think the
00:06:04.900 Democrats clearly kind of collapsed here at the end? And what does it mean? Because we still have
00:06:11.320 this big healthcare issue. And, you know, Russ Vogt is kind of jammed up now, at least for a while,
00:06:17.060 on the rifts that he can do. He's got to wait till I guess the next CR, or if they can make it an
00:06:22.100 annual CR. So where are we in this? You've been through a couple of these.
00:06:26.100 Yeah, well, I think it's politics and control over the narrative at the top level. That's what's
00:06:34.660 going on. And then there's been a few, you know, people got their fingers up in the air,
00:06:38.320 seeing which way the wind's blowing. At first, I think it started off kind of in the Republicans'
00:06:42.040 favor. The evidence, you know, shutting down the economy for illegal immigrants, etc. That narrative
00:06:49.460 was winning. Then you had the Virginia, New Jersey, California elections, and the Democrat
00:06:55.060 pulse went up a little bit. They got excited and they, oh, we got something going here.
00:07:00.620 And then lately, I think the Democrats see Thanksgiving break coming at them.
00:07:05.860 And that would be a doozy. Bad, very bad for them. And so I think they were testing out the
00:07:11.960 healthcare trial balloon. The Republicans have no answer on that. They got to get one, right? The
00:07:17.440 Democrats, back when I was in, it was pre-existing conditions. They just push it and push it and
00:07:22.980 push it. No end to spending, right? So it's like debating or fighting against Santa Claus. It's an
00:07:28.420 impossible fight to win when the country's already bankrupt. And so what we need, and I think President
00:07:34.460 Trump has expressed some of this, but the healthcare system, it's 20% of the economy, right? And,
00:07:39.740 you know, it's kind of the ultimate conceit of the free market logic. To think that some genius can
00:07:47.880 control in their head 20% of the economy is just absurd. But the hospital systems probably are the
00:07:54.940 key link as far as the politics go. And they'll tell you, their CEOs told me, Dave, we love you. We
00:08:00.640 love your ideas. But we got problems here because we need the formularies and the drugs and the
00:08:07.680 Medicare and the social security numbers to make up for our hospital losses. And so the Republicans,
00:08:14.860 we need to come up with, you know, in economics, we call it a Pareto efficient outcome. We need to make
00:08:19.500 every, we need to come up with some set of policies, which makes everybody better off,
00:08:24.520 somewhat better off without hurting anyone. If you hurt anyone, you lose.
00:08:28.200 I got that. It's great. I got that. But, you know, we were told, and this had to be the priority
00:08:34.980 of the Republicans after we won, you know, particularly in the House, we had to sort out
00:08:40.160 Obamacare. You guys had passed, I think, 40 bills or something to tear it down. But you knew
00:08:45.040 they'd never be implemented. When President Trump came in, the speed bump we hit in the first seven
00:08:51.020 months was exactly this. Do you see, I don't need to go back over that history, but do you see the
00:08:56.000 Republicans coming together and coming up with a solution? I mean, President Trump threw out an
00:09:00.400 alternative last night. Do you see the Republicans between now and Christmas break coming up with a
00:09:05.940 solution? No, on the show for the past four years, for the past 10 years with you, I've said they don't
00:09:14.560 come together with any solutions. That's the problem. They let each 250 members go out and run their
00:09:20.660 own campaign. There's not a contract with America at the top. There needs to be, right? We said we were
00:09:26.620 going to repeal Obamacare, and then we had a Paul Ryan with three bucket thing, and President Trump was
00:09:32.540 doing his best to navigate all that thing, but it was an unmitigated disaster. And so they need to come
00:09:38.680 forward. Yes, they need to put something in place that's very understandable that you can explain in one
00:09:45.460 sentence. Simultaneously, Dave, I just wanted people to walk down the path here, because this
00:09:51.800 is going to drive us into the 26 midterms, or the kickoff of the 26 midterms. I guess we've already
00:09:56.120 kicked off, but this will be the big launch. We've got, what, 90 days until January 20th to basically
00:10:04.160 come to a resolution on the $7 trillion budget and the $5 trillion of revenue. And I know Russ Vogt and
00:10:10.400 people have these amazing plans that President Trump signed off on to cut spending and to do it
00:10:15.740 in a smart way. But you just saw the Democrats, what they wanted to do there was add over a trillion
00:10:20.180 dollars for illegal alien health care. In addition, the one thing they won was to stop the rifts,
00:10:27.160 to absolutely just hard stop the rifts. So folks, in the next, you know, between now and the first of
00:10:33.560 the year, and that goes through Thanksgiving, the holidays, Christmas, the new year, you're going to have
00:10:38.760 two pitch battles here in Capitol Hill. I just don't see, I just don't see either one of these
00:10:43.880 sides coming to any resolution. My point, I think we're going to kick off 20, you're going to have a
00:10:48.080 lot of hate and discontent in this. The Democrats are going to get more wildly violent, crazier,
00:10:54.320 and, you know, we're going to be in a fix come January with maybe a year CR. Hang on for a second.
00:11:00.240 We've got, I want to play Mark Mitchell and Alex Jones is going to take us to break Mark Mitchell
00:11:05.160 and Rosemary Jenks on the other side. Let's go ahead and hit it. And so when he comes out and
00:11:10.180 talks about bringing the price of Turkey down, well, these people can't afford houses to put
00:11:14.740 the Turkey in and they're making jokes about you about, well, Trump's plan for affordability on
00:11:20.380 Turkey is to like have a three-year Turkey loan where you can put no money down. And you know what
00:11:25.220 I mean? It's like that bad. Again, where's the understanding that this needs to be economic
00:11:30.220 populism? He ran as a populist and he's surrounded by billionaires. And like Bill Palti,
00:11:35.040 he might be the nicest guy on earth, but when your solution to like the housing crisis is to
00:11:40.120 make prices higher, which is what happens when you juice demand without affecting supply,
00:11:44.600 that's what that 50 year mortgage will do. It will make the baby boomer generation more wealthy
00:11:50.160 because their houses prices will go up. It will make home builders more wealthy because they can
00:11:54.860 sell higher price houses and it will make bankers more wealthy because they can siphon off more interest
00:11:59.740 out of young people. And what's really sick is that we have a bubble right now. And so for Trump,
00:12:05.040 to expand borrowing by expanding credit, relaxing the credit requirements, what they're essentially
00:12:10.760 doing is helping struggling people get into the market so that boomers who have made a lot of money
00:12:16.000 can get out of the market at the top. That's even more perverse. And so that's what their solution was
00:12:21.460 when the real solution should be to crash the market. And yes, that would be bad for the economy,
00:12:26.380 but everybody was talking about a controlled detonation of the economy. Remember back in January,
00:12:31.180 I think it was, we're like, okay, we're in, how are we bringing this thing down? And you know what?
00:12:36.140 That would have been the best thing for people under 50. They could have gotten rid of all the H1Bs
00:12:40.920 and all the visas and then crash the housing market. That would have given every zoomer a job,
00:12:46.400 a good job, like an Apple development job. Oh yeah. Like a fever would also push all the
00:12:52.900 foreigners out, all the illegals. And unfortunately it would be a generational wealth transfer,
00:12:56.920 but we still have generational wealth transfers happening right now. You have young workers who
00:13:01.940 are underemployed, basically paying for all the social security and Medicare that the boomer
00:13:06.220 generation is demanding to be there. And what I'm saying that we're seeing is the fourth turning.
00:13:12.040 And I think we're seeing it right now. And I think the Israel issue, and I'm not picking on Israel.
00:13:16.880 It could have been any issue. No, absolutely. But exactly. That's been now the catalyst.
00:13:22.020 First, that's what captured the public's attention. So break that down.
00:13:26.120 If you look 20 years ago and ask America about like, well, what'd you think about Israel? It's
00:13:30.200 like, it wouldn't have been that big of a political football and the numbers probably would have been
00:13:33.680 flat across age, but then there would have been a huge age spectrum between the youngs and the olds
00:13:38.460 on what like candidate to support. Right. Uh, now it's the complete opposite. People aren't that far
00:13:44.340 apart on Trump between like 18 and 65, but on Israel, they're completely far apart. The 18 to 29s,
00:13:50.720 only 21% say Israel, the 65 and older it's 59%. So they're completely at odds. Very clearly the
00:13:57.560 fourth turning stuff. And what the fourth turning tells us is that there's a generation, the boomer
00:14:02.820 generation is the one that, you know, takes over government, grew up where there were strong
00:14:08.800 institutions with strong values, takes advantage of that, becomes more individualistic and selfish.
00:14:13.800 And then at the cusp of the fourth turning crisis, there's a change of leadership into the hero
00:14:20.160 generation, which is younger people, but specifically the millennials, people who have come up under them
00:14:25.180 were raised by them, but have a very different value set. And so there's a crisis. And after that
00:14:30.160 crisis, I think values are pull, not push can't push Christianity on people, conservatism on people
00:14:36.240 from a political perspective, there's a crisis and people reorder society around a new value set.
00:14:42.120 So I think Israel is a very deeply ingrained boomer value. They saw the nation be formed. They
00:14:50.080 supported it all through the years and it's become a religious sacrament. And so the young people see
00:14:56.120 that as a rebellion point.
00:14:57.300 Let me be blunt. Gold is up around 40% this year. That's not speculation. That's reality. And if a
00:15:05.780 portion of your savings isn't diversified in the gold, you're missing the boat. Now, here's the
00:15:10.560 facts. Inflation is still too high. The U.S. dollar is still too weak and the government debt is
00:15:16.180 insurmountable. That is why central banks are flocking to gold. They're the ones driving up the prices
00:15:22.140 now to record highs. But it's not too late to buy gold from Birch Gold Group and get in the door

00:16:40.120 boomers. Let the chat know that I have arrived. Man, oh man. Talk about the fourth turning. I did that
00:16:45.780 film. Did that film 15 years ago? I guess it was right over the last 600 meters. Did the
00:16:51.340 generation zero. I didn't realize how prescient I would be. Dave Bratt, we got Mark Mitchell here,
00:16:57.920 but I want you to take, we don't need to get to the Israel issue right now. Let's take the first part
00:17:02.360 of it, which is institutions and structures. Anytime you have these turn, you know, the kind of arc of
00:17:07.320 American history, you have these turnings. The institutions that worked for so many, you know,
00:17:14.640 decades turn out that they may have either used up their usefulness or need to be regenerated.
00:17:21.380 Your thoughts, sir?
00:17:22.020 Yeah, well, I think they're spot on.
00:17:26.540 And don't dump on my boomers. I'll get Mitchell to do that.
00:17:30.700 No, no, I won't dump on them. I'll just put it longer on historical context, right? The
00:17:36.020 Christian tradition, the Catholics gave us human rights language in 1300. Human reason was thriving.
00:17:43.980 The enlightenment came upon us with human reason and thinned out our values, right? It kind of
00:17:53.040 secularized religion and without meaning in our lives, without that deeper source of connective
00:17:59.920 tissue that links us all together, things start falling apart. That's been going on for a hundred
00:18:04.980 years. And in Harvard, Yale, and Princeton, all their mottos used to be truth for Christ in church.
00:18:10.160 Not anymore. They're not even pursuing truth anymore with a capital T. And so when they're
00:18:15.980 talking about this newer generation, they're growing up without the deeper meaning in their
00:18:22.160 life. And I think the kids have a hunger for that. And they're going, they're going, the Orthodox,
00:18:26.940 the Eastern Orthodox religion is growing, I think, faster than any of the others because of the
00:18:31.220 structure and the discipline and the masculine elements. And people are starting to take a new
00:18:37.380 look at religion. And so that ties into the Israel piece and the, and the, uh, the values
00:18:43.160 piece and the culture piece. And, uh, it's good news, uh, but we're nowhere near culmination,
00:18:47.860 right? It's the beginning. It's the, the fourth turning is this AI chaos. And, uh, we're about
00:18:54.000 ready to start seeing glimmers of hope by in the young people. I, I, I think, um, in fact,
00:19:01.160 on AI, uh, I'll get it to you. My trusty producer here, Grace has got it. Grace, you might want
00:19:06.080 to go ahead when you're ready and put it up into the chat, uh, about $5 trillion. It's $5 trillion
00:19:11.360 that looks like the total buildout of the data centers, the energy, all of it, uh, of which the
00:19:17.060 U S taxpayer is going to be kind of footing the bill for a big part of it. So Mark Mitchell,
00:19:21.320 you've been kind of on a roll. You you've been at Rasmussen for years, one of with Richard Barris,
00:19:27.480 one of the guys that focuses on MAGA, the president, everything. You're, you're quite concerned
00:19:32.700 about some of the direction here, but the deeper issues you've got to at the beginning of your,
00:19:37.560 and if people have not seen it, I put it up on getter one hour that Mark spent with Alex Jones
00:19:43.900 is a kind of must watch TV and take your number two pencil out when you're watching it because
00:19:48.880 he's got some great insights. Your thoughts this morning, sir. Yeah. My thoughts are the
00:19:54.580 Republicans are going to lose because they don't understand politics. They're still playing
00:19:58.380 yesterday's political game, which is a game about basically two warring sides, two warring
00:20:04.160 ideological sides locked in a complete stalemate. And it's not like that anymore. People under 50
00:20:09.920 don't really care about conservatism. The problem is, is that all of these values have basically
00:20:14.140 failed America and everybody above 50 is generally doing pretty well. Everybody under 50 can't afford
00:20:19.360 a house, doesn't want to get married. The society doesn't work. The churches don't mean as much as
00:20:24.240 they used to the school suck. Like everything's falling apart. And then that's what happens on a
00:20:28.740 fourth turning. And it's like, okay, you got this wave of boomers. They did really well. And what's
00:20:33.240 wild is just look at like median home buyer age, which has gone up from 39 to 59 in the last 20
00:20:38.480 years. So there's an entire slice of the generation that's literally just been priced out of the
00:20:42.300 American dream. And the polling tells us this, like everybody thinks that today's children will be
00:20:46.160 worse off than their parents. The numbers are just absolutely abysmal. So something like the music
00:20:50.200 finally stopped is basically where we're at. And you have the Republican party that's just like,
00:20:54.040 well, you know, they'll be fine just voting for us because nobody likes socialism. Well,
00:20:57.520 we're getting to the point where people are considering socialism. And I think that this
00:21:01.080 was like the last chance of the right to actually put up or shut up. And everybody's seeing that,
00:21:06.000 oh, they're just going to shut up. That's exactly what happened. Donald Trump had the perfect platform.
00:21:10.620 He was given the biggest mandate the Republican party's ever going to have. All he had to do was come
00:21:15.260 in and literally just reform government and smash the oligarchy. And he's not going to. And so all the
00:21:21.760 young people, all of these people, like the Trump voters under 40, they are not conservative at all.
00:21:27.360 And they gave Donald Trump a 60% approval rating in the fall or in the spring when Elon Musk and
00:21:32.760 Doge were just completely shock and awe, like tearing the government apart. Everybody was validated that,
00:21:38.580 yes, I distrusted the federal government and I was right. It sucks. And all of a sudden we just like
00:21:44.220 bottled that back up. And now it's like, oh, it's the Republicans and Democrats. Who's going to blame
00:21:48.440 more? It doesn't matter. They're just going to vote for Mom Donnie because he's going to give
00:21:52.380 them a $10 trillion housing crisis bill. And, you know, it'll destroy the republic.
00:21:57.660 Is this the reason? Hang on. Is this the is this the reason that in political media, you could tell
00:22:04.040 that this shutdown did not generate the interest, did not generate the passion, did not generate
00:22:10.000 the concern of the one that President Trump did in 18 for building the wall and the one that
00:22:15.300 that was in 13 with Mike Lee and Ted Cruz about Obamacare, that that conventional politics
00:22:22.360 and kind of the Republicans, the Democrats going out of it, going at it at a superficial level
00:22:27.640 is not is not what drives people now.
00:22:31.400 We don't have daily tracking on party. We have daily tracking on Trump. And this one was very
00:22:35.780 different, entirely different landscape. I've been saying that people want to shut down,
00:22:39.300 but the whole point was to actually reform the system with it. And so what happened is Donald Trump's
00:22:44.100 numbers didn't take a nosedive at all for the first three weeks of the shutdown. It was incredible.
00:22:48.400 I didn't know what to expect. And people were like, OK, whatever. Sure, we're going to shut this down.
00:22:52.360 And on the Internet, which I admit is not real world, everybody was like, oh, look, we got to get
00:22:58.180 Russ Vogt, the Grim Reaper. So what happened is about three weeks into this, when Donald Trump's
00:23:03.240 flying around the world talking to dignitaries and we're building the East Wing of the White House
00:23:07.500 and now food stamps are going to get defunded and we're walking into an election. All of a sudden,
00:23:13.040 his numbers started tanking. And it was very clear that, in my opinion, the Republicans had
00:23:17.540 no plan and everybody went on the Internet and everyone was ripping their faces off on the right
00:23:21.600 about Israel. And so I think that's what happened. And then you look at the elections and it's like,
00:23:26.840 oh, yep, independents and crossover Democrats didn't turn out in New Jersey. And some of them might
00:23:32.080 have been affected by what was going on. But clearly, some of them, I think, just expected more out of a
00:23:36.360 Republican Party and are not excited to go to the polls. Democrats are excited to go vote because
00:23:41.240 they hate Trump and that motivates them. On the right, unfortunately, what motivates them is
00:23:45.440 smashing the oligarchy and burning the government down. And the right is not doing that. And so
00:23:49.620 the left's going to get a chance. The pendulum is going to swing back and this might be the last
00:23:53.620 chance. I don't know. We got 355 days to an election and the Republicans are going to lose this
00:23:58.040 one. They are just going to lose it. It looked like their plan was a gerrymandering war of attrition
00:24:02.900 that they're now appearing to lose. And the generic ballot is, I think, Democrat plus five
00:24:07.680 on the real clear politics aggregate. Rich says his numbers are way worse than that. I don't steal
00:24:12.060 his thunder. And we're going to go back in the field soon, too. And history tells us they're going
00:24:16.660 to lose it anyways. And so at this point, you know, you have a clip about it, but there needs to be
00:24:21.140 drastic action for the Republican Party if they actually want to fix America. But I think what's being
00:24:25.760 revealed is that they just don't. And J.D. Vance polls really well. But, you know, 2028, this time
00:24:32.620 we mean it is not a good campaign slogan. What we're going to have Andrew Colvett's going to be
00:24:39.260 on here. Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk actually on August 19th put up an action plan. In fact, you'll
00:24:45.240 see it. I put it up on Getter yesterday. You'll see it when we have a clip of Chip Roy and Benny
00:24:51.260 Johnson talking about H-1B visas. We're going to bring in. We're going to bring in Rosemary
00:24:56.380 Jenks here in a moment. When you say they're going to lose it, obviously nothing in history
00:25:00.360 is actually set in place. But you're recommending Barris is going to come on, too. You're recommending
00:25:04.660 from what you're seeing a pretty dramatic action plan to get back to the basics and particularly
00:25:09.980 to get back to the motive power we had in the first 100 days, 200 days of the Trump of the
00:25:16.220 Trump's second term. Yeah, they need to do something different. People voted for massive
00:25:22.180 change in Washington, D.C., not business as usual. And fighting over health care subsidies
00:25:26.340 is business as usual. It just is. And the Republicans in Congress and the Senate, I understand you
00:25:31.360 have a shiny object in front of you, but you're playing the wrong game. The right game is let's
00:25:35.820 arrest some pharma company CEOs. The right game is like sue every insurance company for antitrust.
00:25:41.680 The right game is like actually audit Medicare spending, like find $100 billion worth of
00:25:47.920 useless like sleep apnea payments or all the double payments that Doge was going after
00:25:53.580 or all of these over diagnosis tests or like actually break the industry capture of the
00:26:01.020 medical regulatory system. We have the right people, do we not? Like this is the best they're
00:26:05.040 ever going to get in Washington, D.C. And unfortunately, I think what's going to happen is none of that
00:26:09.240 will work because these people care about business influence. It's like literally Trump is surrounded
00:26:14.480 apparently by billionaires right now and he has to smash the oligarchy, not be the oligarchy
00:26:19.600 or the Democrat Party is just going to take over the oligarchy. And that's what they're doing.
00:26:24.040 They're just passing this political football back and forth. And, you know, the music is going to
00:26:28.360 stop. Like the right is turning into a hard right movement. The left is turning into a socialist
00:26:34.000 movement. And, you know, our dollar is just going to get destroyed and we're giving all the jobs away,
00:26:40.060 the cream of our economy. This is a health care thing, too. I mean, it's really perverse,
00:26:44.220 the health care industry. Sixty percent of the health medical insurance is actually like employer
00:26:49.460 insurance. And the way they price those things is the whole company's age average is taken into
00:26:54.960 account. So there's a really perverse incentive to just like push older people out of the workplace.
00:26:59.520 And in my opinion, that's probably one of the primary drivers of H-1B that everybody's raging
00:27:03.860 against is that, well, we have too many old people. Well, we have a bottomless well of third
00:27:09.380 world young people that we can import with the H-1B program. And I don't care what that does to the
00:27:13.620 American society or culture. I'm just increasing profits. And so Charlie Kirk's plan. And my
00:27:20.080 understanding is Charlie Kirk was one of the few people that could get to Donald Trump that actually
00:27:23.280 understood this. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. Don't get ahead of yourself. We're going to get to all
00:27:27.800 that. We've got Rosemary Jenks on H-1B visas. We've got Andrew Colvette, Richard Barris talking
00:27:32.900 about Charlie's plan. Mitchell's going to stick around with us. Okay. Let's be honest. You never
00:27:37.180 thought it would get this far. Maybe you missed the last IRS deadline or you haven't filed taxes in a
00:27:42.280 while. Let me be clear. The IRS is cracking down harder than ever, and this ain't going to go away

00:28:58.200 Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.
00:29:04.400 All family pharmacy. Michael's here, CEO. Sir, had a great launch. I know we got a lot of
00:29:11.700 doctors. A lot of people that have pharmacies that contacted you. Just people are so glad that
00:29:16.580 you're with the war room. Take a second. What actually is it? Why is your watchword medical
00:29:23.640 freedom? And how does this help people? We just had the great Maha conference here yesterday.
00:29:28.620 Claire Dooley is going to be on later to talk about it. Why is all family pharmacy help and assist when
00:29:34.840 people are concerned about their medical freedom? So all family pharmacy was born on medical freedom.
00:29:40.560 We're giving patients, all Americans, access to everyday medications that doctors simply don't
00:29:47.840 want to prescribe. Pharmacists simply just don't want to dispense. We've been doing this since the
00:29:53.500 early pandemic days where so many medications, specifically ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine,
00:30:00.040 were restricted from Americans being able to order. And it was an unfortunate time that we all had to go
00:30:07.360 through. Meanwhile, there's other parts of the world where people had free access to these types
00:30:11.680 of medications. So we've we've kind of built ourselves off of that medical freedom. We give
00:30:18.040 you a doctor. You request the medications. The doctor's job is to make sure they're safe and
00:30:22.580 effective and that they'll be used safely and effectively by you as a patient. By doing that,
00:30:28.680 we've cut so much red tape. We've gotten rid of so much wasteful spending. It's just a doctor fee
00:30:33.880 and a medication fee and a shipping fee. That's all it is. It's as simple as can be. There's no
00:30:38.640 insurance. There's nobody getting in the way of you and the medications that you deserve,
00:30:43.300 ultimately, at the end of the day.
00:30:44.960 How do people get there? What the war room does is allow the posse to actually go to these sites,
00:30:52.860 meet the people, get relationships. Where do they go right now to go to your site? Who do they talk to?
00:30:57.620 You're extending, I think, the Bannon 25. You're extending the sale you had the other day for Veterans
00:31:03.240 Day a little bit. But we want to basically introduce you to the war room posse. So where do people go?
00:31:09.880 So you go to allfamilypharmacy.com backslash Bannon. The coupon code is Bannon25. We created
00:31:17.400 this for Veterans Day. We've decided to extend it because it was so popular. So many people missed
00:31:22.880 out on the opportunity because Veterans Day fell on a Tuesday this year. So we're giving that ability
00:31:28.140 until, I believe, Friday for them to place that order. We're allowing you to take your time,
00:31:33.060 take a look at the website, see what is needed specifically for you for flu season. It's time
00:31:38.680 to stockpile on certain medications that could help you during flu season. We do also have our
00:31:44.620 vitamin company. It's called Operation Wellness. A portion of those proceeds go to Children of the
00:31:49.400 Fallen Patriots. It's an organization that we fell in love with. 99% of the proceeds are actually
00:31:55.160 donated. This isn't one of those organizations where they don't donate everything, anything.
00:31:59.560 And it goes to children, those who have lost a parent to war, to an active duty. It's an important,
00:32:06.920 important organization for us. And we love it. And we do donate those proceeds to them
00:32:12.860 through our vitamin and supplement company. So it's a great time to order as well.
00:32:18.340 Perfect. Michael, thank you so much. Look forward to having me back here in the next couple of days.
00:32:22.080 People love the company.
00:32:23.860 Thank you.
00:32:24.260 Go there today. Meet Michael and his team. Thank you, brother. Let's go and play Benny Johnson,
00:32:32.660 Chip Roy. We've got Rosemary Jenks, Mark Mitchell, Dave Bratt. Let's go and play the clip.
00:32:38.200 The dream of homeownership and a functional society has collapsed in one generation since
00:32:44.700 the greatest generation in World War II. And it's something that we got to fix. Charlie's solution,
00:32:48.840 obviously, is mass deportations and ending H-1B scams, among other things. What's your take on
00:32:54.520 this, Congressman? Well, first of all, I did listen to virtually all of Byron's interview. And
00:32:59.760 there's a reason that I've endorsed him for governor. We agree. We're great friends. We
00:33:03.180 work together in the House Freedom Caucus. We are aligned philosophically on a lot of these issues.
00:33:07.560 So I agree with much of what he said. But what I would just add is, in Texas, we've been dealing
00:33:13.420 with the brunt of the illegal immigration influence. But now we're seeing, I think,
00:33:18.700 the ramifications of the H-1B system and how it has been abused, in addition to chain migration and
00:33:25.240 diversity visas, which we've been trying to fix for a long time. And we've been unable to do so.
00:33:30.280 You'll remember back in 2018, with the various bills that were being debated in President Trump's
00:33:36.540 first term. And we were unable to get that resolved as Republicans. And it left it both broken with
00:33:42.160 respect to the illegal immigration system. We didn't get the wall fully built. We didn't get
00:33:46.780 fixes to all of the asylum problems and the abuse of parole and the catch and release.
00:33:51.580 But we also didn't address ending the chain migration and diversity visas. We had language to do it.
00:33:57.020 We just couldn't get the votes. So now, what are we dealing with in Texas? We're dealing with a
00:34:02.120 massive Islamism problem. We're dealing with a massive problem of the advancement of Sharia law.
00:34:08.780 We're dealing with a mass community that is growing up, that have no desire to assimilate
00:34:14.880 and come here to become American and embrace Western civilization, embrace our constitution,
00:34:21.240 embrace our values. We've allowed the corporatists to define our entire national policy.
00:34:27.500 And if I were going to go talk about what Charlie's tweet there was about that summary,
00:34:32.040 which is exceptionally on point. And as he always was when he was starting from faith,
00:34:38.840 family, the foundational principles, and that encapsulates it very well. You should be able
00:34:44.140 to own a home. You should be able to have Americans getting jobs. And the mass deportation is correct.
00:34:49.560 The ending H-1BB says it's correct, et cetera. What I would point out here is that we're dealing with
00:34:55.580 a cultural problem about who we are as Americans. Going back a couple of years ago, I was noting 51
00:35:01.940 million people in this country are foreign born, but that's something like 16 or 17 percent of the
00:35:08.580 population. Now, that is higher than it's ever been. That is higher than it was in the early 20th
00:35:14.560 century, right?
00:35:15.380 Hang on for one second. Just hold that. I want to get the rosemary drinks. Chip is going to join us
00:35:21.040 tomorrow to talk about this. So what Chip is saying, he's actually working on, they're working
00:35:27.520 on some legislation now at Rosemary Jenks to resolve these problems, H-1B visas and others.
00:35:34.240 Can you just give us, not an idea what's in it, because I know they're going to launch this and
00:35:37.600 announce it and you've been working on it, but the mood change up on Capitol Hill that these things
00:35:43.380 have to be addressed now. You heard Chip give a great summary of kind of the Charlie Kirk perspective
00:35:47.960 of how bad this has gotten, ma'am. Well, I'm not sure that, unfortunately, there has been
00:35:54.320 an overall mood change in Congress. I think there are members of Congress who are figuring this out
00:36:01.800 and who are listening to the American people, and obviously Congressman Roy is one of them. There are
00:36:06.520 others. But what we need right now is a turning point. Speaking of Charlie Kirk, we need to have a
00:36:17.640 national conversation about what our immigration policy should be. I'll tell you a dirty little
00:36:25.940 secret. Our immigration system is working exactly as Congress intended it to work right now. This is
00:36:34.900 what they designed it for. It is not working for the American people, but it is doing exactly what
00:36:41.020 they intended. So we need to step back and have a national conversation about what an immigration
00:36:47.860 policy that serves Americans' interests looks like. And the best way to do that is to have a
00:36:54.400 moratorium bill that stops it all right now so that we can have that conversation. And that is what
00:36:59.300 Congressman Roy is talking about. So an H-1B bill that we've been talking about, because we think the
00:37:06.520 whole thing's a scam, to shut it down, what's going to be the pushback on that from industry? Because right
00:37:11.480 now, as you know, Rosemary, they have not shown us one billet that an American can't fill either through
00:37:16.420 an education level or job experience. This is all about driving down wages. So if Roy and others put
00:37:25.240 forward a bill to basically put the whole system, the H-1B system, on a hiatus, what is industry and what are the
00:37:33.780 tech bros going to say? Well, first of all, what Congressman Roy is talking about is not just
00:37:40.060 putting H-1B on hiatus. He's talking about the entire immigration system. So legal immigration,
00:37:46.340 non-immigrant workers, all of it. But there is going to be absolute caterwauling from the tech
00:37:54.600 industry. They're going to claim that, you know, they're going to go out of business and a lot of the
00:38:00.920 Chamber of Commerce types will claim the same thing. The fact is, there will be short-term
00:38:07.480 dislocations, short-term pain if this is enacted. But there's going to be plenty of warning for these
00:38:15.720 companies that are dependent on, or, you know, say they're dependent on cheaper foreign labor,
00:38:21.140 because this is going to take some time. It's not going to be enacted by Congress overnight. We have a
00:38:26.320 lot of work to do to build support for this kind of legislation. But the fact is, American companies
00:38:34.860 need to start now weaning themselves off this cheap foreign labor and hiring Americans. It's good for
00:38:42.600 America. It's good for American workers. It's good for our economy. So start now. And the dislocation,
00:38:49.780 the disruption will be significantly less when we get to a point that finally Americans' voices are
00:38:56.440 actually heard in Congress.
00:38:59.060 We have, is it correct? I think we have 12 million STEM workers, people that are trained either through
00:39:05.180 education and or training in industry that are not in the workforce or out of work now in a STEM
00:39:11.640 profession, correct? So there's a pretty deep pool of candidates out there.
00:39:15.620 Absolutely. And we know that there has been massive discrimination against American workers over
00:39:21.640 the age of 40, who, you know, are becoming too expensive and, and the employers can fire them
00:39:28.740 and bring in a younger, cheaper entry level foreign worker at a much lower salary. We also know,
00:39:35.700 of course, that young Americans are being just completely ignored in tech fields because the foreign
00:39:44.080 student to OPT to H1B pipeline is so robust. And so it's time to break those. It's time to break the
00:39:52.360 pipelines. It's time to break the dependence on foreign workers. Americans absolutely need this to
00:40:00.160 happen. And we need it to happen now. It's not going to happen, you know, instantly, but we need it to
00:40:07.740 happen. And we need to have this conversation. And I think that is the big thing that Congressman
00:40:13.020 Roy's legislation will generate is this national conversation on what is the immigration policy
00:40:21.100 we need. Do we need any immigration at all? You know, maybe we want to limit two spouses and minor
00:40:26.160 children. Maybe we want to have no immigration for some significant period of time. We've got to have
00:40:32.380 that conversation. The American people have never been asked, what immigration policy do you want?
00:40:39.000 It's time. The dislocations, though, for the tech, for the tech bros, because they're going to
00:40:47.400 catwall her in with their lobbyists and all that. If you plan ahead and we can plan ahead starting now,
00:40:53.420 it won't be that bad because you've got a tremendous pool plus American citizens, not foreign students,
00:40:59.120 but American citizens coming out of university every year. If you got serious and plan this out,
00:41:05.640 the disruptions and displacements would be pretty small, correct? Yeah, that's absolutely true. We
00:41:11.360 have plenty of workers in this country. And even if you have to take a worker out of college and train
00:41:17.660 them to do whatever it is you do, whether it's building ships or building missiles or whatever,
00:41:23.720 that there will be time to do that if you start now. So if employers want to avoid the economic
00:41:30.860 disruptions, they need to start now and start focusing on American workers.
00:41:39.720 Rosemary, you're going to be a main part of actually getting the narrative set and the
00:41:43.420 messaging, all that. Where do people go? I know Dave Bratt is on your board, a board member in good
00:41:49.460 standing. He did this because he wanted to see action also. Where do folks go to get more information?
00:41:53.760 Dave is the chairman of our board and we are, the website is iapaction.com, iapaction.com or

00:44:10.820 Okay, Mark Mitchell. Rosemary Jenks has been working on this. They're all set to go. Dave Bratz,
00:44:16.680 the chairman. Your thoughts about this, about this may be a messaging bill. What are you warning,
00:44:22.720 not just the Republican Party and the MAGA movement, but the country at large, sir?
00:44:26.780 355 days until the pendulum swings back to the left and this time they're going for it.
00:44:34.160 And so the time for talking is over. And I will respectfully say that, yes, somebody has asked
00:44:39.680 America what they think about the H-1B situation and immigration. Well, if you ask them about H-1B,
00:44:45.180 they say, yeah, they like it because we like the idea of being able to take talented people. But then
00:44:49.360 they say, oh, but the corporations are abusing it. I hate major corporations. The economy is fair.
00:44:54.220 I can't buy a house. And I'm ready to turn to socialism because capitalism has failed me.
00:44:59.020 And they've told us this over and over again. And it's been forever. And I've only ever had two
00:45:03.500 Republicans ever reach out to me for polling. And so they don't care because their interests don't
00:45:08.960 want this. And the idea that somehow we're just going to discover performatively in some national
00:45:13.260 conversation that Americans hate H-1Bs is ridiculous. Donald Trump's still out there defending it
00:45:18.480 with billionaire propaganda on TV, giving his movement a smack in the face. When his movement,
00:45:24.200 like, I don't know if everybody remembers, but there was a pretty major event,
00:45:27.780 the Christmas massacre of Ramaswamy back in December of 2024. The youth yeeted him out of the
00:45:33.640 conservative movement because of his defense of the Indian work culture. No Americans aren't stupid.
00:45:39.400 No Americans aren't lazy. And the idea that we don't have these people is retarded.
00:45:42.880 I apply for some major jobs in the tech industry. And every time I go for a job I want, I've had to
00:45:48.740 go against 500 people just like me and 500 Indians. And they hire the Indians. And everybody knows that
00:45:54.920 every one of these tech companies is chock full of them because we've given the best parts of our
00:45:59.120 economy away to the rest of the world. It was sold out. Sold out. And the Americans know it. They know
00:46:04.560 this already. And so I've done a lot of stick. Let's do some carrot. If the Republican Party can do this,
00:46:10.760 not talk about it, do this, within a year, they will rule for 50 years. They will capture the
00:46:16.860 youth. They have to do a two-point plan. One is everything that Andrew's about to talk about,
00:46:22.000 the Charlie Kirk plan of economic populism. And yes, there will be some economic disruption.
00:46:27.260 The youth want to drink billionaire tears. That's part of the process. And then two is visibly
00:46:33.920 reform government. The FBI raided Mar-a-Lago like the Gestapo, just putting somebody else in charge of
00:46:40.660 it, doesn't restore institutional trust. There needs to be a visible reform process. People have
00:46:46.800 to see into the investigations, see the firings, see the root cause and corrective action about all
00:46:54.180 of our agencies, the FBI, the CIA, the IRS. What about the regulatory capture of the healthcare
00:47:00.780 industry? Healthcare is going to destroy our republic. And the youth know it because their healthcare,
00:47:06.480 their individual plans cost almost as much as rent. Talking about a 10% reduction because of
00:47:11.800 price negotiation with insurance companies is not adequate. It's old politics. You will fail.
00:47:18.920 The oligarchy needs to be smashed. The only question is, is it with a right hook or a left hook?
00:47:25.140 Mark Mitchell, you're on fire. Where do people go to get on your social media and particularly your
00:47:31.300 YouTube channel? Rasmussen underscore poll on Twitter. And I'm blowing up. I apparently just
00:47:38.140 passed Mark Levin on Twitter at honest pollster and Rasmussen underscore poll on YouTube. They can
00:47:44.880 go get that one hour Alex Jones interview there. Hang on. You passed on engagement. The numbers are
00:47:51.020 blowing up, but you're doing it off a relatively small base. He's got a couple of million. You have
00:47:55.200 what, 150,000? Oh yeah. He's got a follower base 50X higher than me, but I could probably ratio him
00:48:01.200 right now if I wanted to. Wow. Mark Mitchell. Thank you, brother. Thank you for coming on here and
00:48:07.140 being, uh, giving it to us with the bark on. Great. Great to be here. Thanks. Dave Bratt, you heard it.
00:48:14.520 Got to take action. If you do this, you'll, if you get this done next year, kind of, you know,
00:48:21.020 let's stop all immigration for a while and let's get rid of the H-1B program. You'll, you will, uh,
00:48:27.980 reign for 50 years. Your thoughts and we have a Republican party. Do we have enough leaders up
00:48:32.820 there that can help get this done? No, absolutely not. I agree with everything Mark Mitchell said
00:48:40.200 and the way he said it. It's brilliant. It's spot on. Uh, but he mentioned two key words. One is
00:48:46.540 there's going to be dislocation and chaos, and we're going to smash the oligarchs. If you smash
00:48:52.700 the oligarchs, you're going to smash what I call the giant Excel spreadsheet in the sky. That's only
00:48:57.300 in the speaker's office. It's the Excel spreadsheet with all the donors and the funders. If you're,
00:49:02.740 if you, you may pick up the young vote, but you'll lose the money vote. And so, uh, the only person
00:49:09.140 capable of solving this again, unfortunately is president Trump. If he chooses to message on this and tell
00:49:15.520 the speaker and Thune what to do, they will do it. I think they better do it. I think you just put
00:49:21.040 your finger on it. I got a chart later on inflation under Biden at 20%. If you explain the inflation
00:49:27.620 piece and this immigration piece, I think Mark Mitchell is exactly right. You will win and you
00:49:32.660 will be in power for 50 years because you will get grain, gain your credibility again. And we've lost
00:49:38.100 it. We've lost the credibility and the momentum. We got to get it back now. Hang on. When you say
00:49:43.300 explain inflation and immigration, what do you talk about? How he inherited a mess that was,
00:49:48.100 had 20% inflation of the dollar getting crushed. Explain that. How do you kind of, you've already
00:49:53.660 said, you've already said that we're in charge and it's a golden age. How do you, how do you go
00:49:58.100 back and tell people, Hey, this hole is so much deeper than anybody let on, sir? You know, I think
00:50:05.520 it's essential. I mean, we were saying that on the war room, not, not so fast on the cheerleading,
00:50:10.100 the capital investment up in the $15 trillion range is coming. It's heroic. If Denver wants to
00:50:17.420 put up a chart just for 10 seconds, here's the inflation story, right? In 10 seconds, there's
00:50:22.540 Trump on the far left at 0.1 and 1.4. Then under Biden, you get, you got to add all those numbers
00:50:29.040 together. The nine, one is the peak. And then you add five and four and three, and you get 21% inflation
00:50:35.080 under Biden. And what no one has explained to the American people and president Trump ought to put
00:50:40.200 that chart up on TV and say, guess what? That 20% price increase, the destruction of the dollar,
00:50:48.120 that's what you're feeling. That does not go away, right? When you see that three, five at the end,
00:50:52.780 that doesn't mean the 20% went away. The 20% is locked in permanently and you've lost 20% of your
00:51:00.120 retirement account. They've destroyed 20% of the purchasing power of your retirement account.
00:51:06.420 And Trump needs to explain that because that's what he's getting judged on.
00:51:09.840 This is why the BRICS nations made a move on the dollar, the de-dollarization.
00:51:14.740 Yep. Yep.
00:51:14.920 One, it's to take the United States down, but two, they were getting stiffed. What does this mean? I
00:51:20.620 think it means the IRS, because the CR is far from over as far as we were actually getting an
00:51:27.560 appropriations bill that President Trump wants that cuts costs, cuts spending. As long as you're
00:51:32.840 running $2 trillion deficits, the IRS needs your money from somewhere, even if Scott Besson
00:51:37.460 is overseeing it. 800-958-1000, Tax Network USA. Call them up, tell them your tale of woe. They've
