Bannon's War Room - Episode 4950： Trump Signs EO's Designating Muslim Brotherhood Groups A Terrorist Organization

00:00:00.680 The great Eric Bolling. We're not going to have a cold open. We're not even going to bring in the show.

00:00:04.440 We're going to go right to the White House. We have breaking news from the White House.

00:00:07.600 Our own Brian Glenn. Pretty historic what happened, Brian.

00:00:11.080 It happened. Nobody saw it, but you know about it. What's up?

00:00:15.880 Yeah, good afternoon, Steve. Just less than an hour ago, Secretary Rubio and Scott Bessett,

00:00:21.680 along with President Trump, made an executive order to begin the process of designating certain chapters

00:00:27.720 of the Muslim Brotherhood of Foreign Terrorist Organizations around the world.

00:00:32.520 This comes after intense research that found that these organizations were trying to reshape Western societies from within.

00:00:43.340 And we, of course, know what has happened just recently last week in Texas with Governor Greg Abbott there

00:00:48.600 designating different sanctions of Muslim Brotherhood as terrorist organizations as well,

00:00:54.760 trying to prevent the Sharia law coming up within many cities across this country. 0.87

00:00:59.140 So this is a big step in terms of protecting not only a national security,

00:01:05.740 but protecting lives of people around the country.

00:01:09.300 And, of course, that just happened a few minutes ago.

00:01:11.420 That was closed to the press, so we did not have an opportunity to go in the Oval Office.

00:01:17.340 Brian, do you know when this is going to be promulgated?

00:01:20.400 Has it been promulgated? Because I know people are going to – look, we tried to do this in 2017 and got nowhere.

00:01:26.500 I tell people all the time it was the hardest – I didn't think it was that hard.

00:01:29.800 We got shut down.

00:01:31.280 But one of the blowbacks was that, well, all the Muslim Brotherhood is not a terrorist organization.

00:01:35.380 They're running schools. They're doing this.

00:01:36.940 Of course, the heart of it is a terrorist organization.

00:01:40.080 Do we have any idea about the details of this?

00:01:42.200 They only called for them to investigate which ones and to identify the certain groups.

00:01:50.060 Now, I think the timeline on this is to be ordered within 30 days of this executive order.

00:01:55.880 So I would imagine the wheels are already turning right now to find out exactly which ones need that designation.

00:02:01.940 And perhaps there's some that don't.

00:02:04.380 So that's yet to be determined.

00:02:06.520 But nevertheless, President Trump making a strong stance today and designating these Muslim Brotherhoods for being domestic tariffed.

00:02:19.140 Now, how does he do this on Monday, Brian, when on Friday we had Mom Donnie in the Oval and it was quite cordial, it looked like.

00:02:29.260 Now, John Solomon tells us today it's five-dimension chess that's happening.

00:02:33.640 He didn't want to give him a Zelensky moment. 0.63

00:02:36.100 But how do you designate – and as you know, in War Room, we refer to Mondani as the Ugandan Marxist jihadist.

00:02:45.620 How do you designate go after the Muslim Brotherhood on Monday when you had a cordial meeting with Mondani on Friday?

00:02:52.800 Is this five-dimension chess, sir?

00:02:56.580 Perhaps, sir.

00:02:57.200 Or it could be a response, Steve, to whenever a reporter asked Mondani if Trump was a fascist.

00:03:03.380 And, of course, Trump reacted and said, don't answer that.

00:03:06.080 Just say yes.

00:03:07.480 And kind of, you know, really not allowing him to define President Trump as a potential fascist.

00:03:13.680 And we simply know that's not true.

00:03:15.540 But then the very next day, Mondani went in front of the media once again calling Trump a fascist.

00:03:22.380 So maybe this is a direct response to what went down on Friday.

00:03:27.860 And maybe this is a little bit of a punchback.

00:03:30.020 Maybe John Solomon is right.

00:03:31.600 Maybe this is 5D chess that he's playing.

00:03:34.580 But it's something that's really amazing.

00:03:36.560 I was talking to some colleagues before we came on the air.

00:03:39.180 And they were really surprised that this has not happened sooner,

00:03:43.740 considering all of the events in history of the attacks, not only on the U.S., but in Israel as well,

00:03:49.940 going back to the attack in October, linking a lot of that to some of these jihadist groups.

00:03:56.920 But, nevertheless, he did it today.

00:03:59.740 And we thought the press would have an opportunity to go inside and ask a few questions.

00:04:04.000 Now, previous to that, and I kind of knew this would happen,

00:04:07.440 at around 3 o'clock, Carolyn Leavitt came out and did a gaggle at the stakeout unit right out here in front of the West Wing. 1.00

00:04:15.440 So I kind of figured that if she did that, then the 4 o'clock Oval indeed would be closed

00:04:21.580 and no comments from the president, and that's exactly what happened.

00:04:26.740 Okay.

00:04:27.320 We'll follow that intensely, and we're going to have a big report on that tomorrow.

00:04:31.040 This is a step in the right direction.

00:04:32.880 It's not absolutely final, and the investigation into how to shut him down is clearly not starting.

00:04:37.980 But, you know, these guys have a big reach, and they've got a lot of money.

00:04:41.440 A bombshell this afternoon on the Comey-Big-Tish James.

00:04:47.320 They're trying to crush Halligan, Pam Bondi.

00:04:51.020 What is the White House?

00:04:52.340 What's the word around the White House about what happened this afternoon in federal court

00:04:55.900 on the Comey and Big-Tish James fraud cases, sir?

00:05:00.760 Yeah, from what I – I was not able to get any kind of official word from the White House,

00:05:07.600 but from what I was listening to earlier, they basically are going to try and – they said

00:05:13.840 that, I guess, Lindsay's appointment was not constitutional, if I'm not mistaken.

00:05:18.580 I don't want to get my facts mixed up here.

00:05:21.100 I want to kind of maybe defer to this topic because I don't have a complete rundown of what that was.

00:05:26.540 But it certainly was one of the topics that Carolyn Leavitt had to take today.

00:05:31.200 And one of the questions was, will they go back and try this again at a later time?

00:05:37.140 And that's yet to be determined.

00:05:39.160 So I wish I had more information on Steve, but I don't.

00:05:41.960 Wow.

00:05:42.940 Okay, we're going to have Will Chamberlain on from Article 3.

00:05:45.040 He's going to break it all down for us.

00:05:46.280 Julie Kelly and Mike Davis tomorrow morning.

00:05:48.080 This is huge.

00:05:48.680 Brian, thank you.

00:05:50.780 Great scoop on the Muslim Brotherhood.

00:05:53.640 What's your social media, sir?

00:05:56.340 You can go follow me at BrianGlennTV on Twitter, Instagram, and on at Brian on True Social.

00:06:02.500 Steve, I appreciate it.

00:06:03.360 Thank you.

00:06:05.220 Thank you, brother.

00:06:06.500 Our White House correspondent, Brian Glenn, with the scoop on the Muslim Brotherhood.

00:06:11.560 An executive order to investigate whether you should go and investigate more or what branches of it.

00:06:17.660 And I'm sure we're going to have some expert on this tomorrow on the show.

00:06:22.400 We're going to break it all down for you about exactly what is going on in Texas and overall the Muslim Brotherhood.

00:06:28.020 Like I said, the world's, I think, largest jihadist terrorist group, Sunni, but their reach is all over. 0.99

00:06:34.880 Okay.

00:06:35.360 We have a cold open.

00:06:36.740 Let's go ahead.

00:06:37.360 Denver, let's go ahead and punch into the cold open.

00:06:39.720 I'm going to come back.

00:06:40.780 And we're going to tee up Will Chamberlain from Article 3 for the next box.

00:06:45.060 Let's go ahead and let it rip.

00:06:46.380 Criminal charges brought against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James have been dismissed.

00:06:53.280 A federal judge found that Lindsay Halligan was unlawfully appointed to the role of interim U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.

00:07:01.300 And because Halligan alone presented the case to the grand jury and alone signed the indictments, the indictments are now null and void.

00:07:09.860 The Justice Department will likely appeal the ruling, but it is a major victory for both James and Comey.

00:07:16.780 Comey was indicted on charges of making a false statement to Congress and obstructing a congressional investigation.

00:07:24.100 James was charged with bank fraud and making false statements.

00:07:27.520 Both pleaded not guilty and both accused the current administration of using the Justice Department as a tool for the president's retribution.

00:07:37.360 I'm grateful that the court ended the case against me, which was a prosecution based on malevolence and incompetence and a reflection of what the Department of Justice has become under Donald Trump, which is heartbreaking.

00:07:50.580 But I was also inspired by the example of the career people who refused to be part of this travesty.

00:07:56.200 It cost some of them their jobs, which is painful, but it preserved their integrity, which is beyond price.

00:08:03.300 And I know they will serve again.

00:08:06.040 I was very lucky that some of the best lawyers in America stepped forward to represent me.

00:08:10.680 I hope they serve as an example to more and more lawyers, especially at some of the big firms, to participate in protecting our liberty, protecting the rule of law.

00:08:20.280 We just spoke about this a couple of days ago.

00:08:22.780 I told you that I thought the case was a choose your own adventure of procedural errors.

00:08:26.860 And here we are, because this was a huge one.

00:08:29.960 And as we also discussed, Halligan being appointed after the 120 days of the interim appointment had been exceeded was a huge problem.

00:08:40.000 And indeed, the court agreed that she was unlawfully appointed.

00:08:44.040 And the problem here is that Halligan did everything on her own.

00:08:47.340 And so now these indictments can't stand.

00:08:49.740 Now, with respect to have you seen anything like this before?

00:08:52.180 I mean, I just heard the conversation.

00:08:54.080 We did see the Mar-a-Lago case being dismissed on similar but different grounds.

00:09:00.400 The legal grounds of why the Jack Smith Mar-a-Lago indictment was ultimately dismissed with Jack Smith's unlawful appointment is different here, but, you know, similar broadly.

00:09:12.400 But prior to these two indictments, not really, right?

00:09:17.020 Like, usually, usually DOJ follows proper process and procedure.

00:09:23.360 And now we see what happens when DOJ attempts to do it and run around those procedures.

00:09:27.760 The cases have now been dismissed and probably delivered a humiliating defeat to the Trump administration.

00:09:36.160 And just to be clear, we're talking about today's opinion says very clearly, and in both opinions, there's a Comey opinion, there's a James opinion, they're substantively identical,

00:09:46.160 that Lindsay Halligan was unlawfully appointed under the federal statute that was used as the basis for her appointment.

00:09:52.760 That allows the attorney general to appoint an interim U.S. attorney for 120 days.

00:09:58.400 And basically what the judge is saying here is you already had somebody in that position for 120 days.

00:10:03.240 You can't use these 120-day periods successively.

00:10:07.140 When that 120-day period is over, you've got two choices.

00:10:10.360 You can either let the district judges appoint someone on their own, or the president can nominate someone and the Senate can confirm them.

00:10:18.660 But you can't do what Lindsay Halligan did here, which is effectively walk off the street from the White House with no prosecutorial experience and then charge a case only to have this issue being raised by defendants.

00:10:31.540 And the attorney general saying after the fact, oh, everything that she did is totally fine by me, I fully endorse it.

00:10:38.280 What the judge is saying here is not only was she unlawfully appointed from the beginning, but the attorney general does not have the right sort of ex-post to say that's okay with me.

00:10:50.640 So in order to get there, you say that no matter what, they first have to appeal it.

00:10:54.260 And that process could be the thing that runs out the clock, because in theory, I think they could probably nominate somebody and potentially get them to the Senate in a shorter period than six months.

00:11:03.380 Well, think about who represents the state of Virginia in the Senate.

00:11:06.280 And so long as the blue slip process is active, remember that U.S. attorneys are still subject to the blue slip process in the United States Senate.

00:11:13.580 What is the blue slip process?

00:11:14.120 It basically gives home state senators a choice in order to block the nomination or the floor consideration of someone who is nominated to be a district judge or a U.S. attorney.

00:11:25.820 This is why Trump is relying on all these interim appointments in the first place, because in states where there is at least one blue state senator or one Democratic senator,

00:11:36.560 he feels as if he cannot nominate the people he wants in those positions.

00:11:40.660 That's why you've got Alina Hava in the district of New Jersey. 1.00

00:11:43.200 That's why you've got Seagal Chata in the district of Nevada, Bill Assaylee in the central district of California, which is Los Angeles.

00:11:49.740 He thinks that the real fundamental problem here is the blue slip process.

00:11:53.780 And Chuck Grassley in particular, he's called out for real criticism for not getting away with, not doing away with the blue slip process.

00:12:01.520 Ah, OK.

00:12:02.220 All right.

00:12:02.880 Arizona senator and retired Navy captain Mark Kelly is under investigation by the Pentagon for what it claims are serious allegations of misconduct.

00:12:10.380 In relation to a video he and other lawmakers released last week reminding military members that they can refuse illegal orders.

00:12:19.620 They should refuse them, in fact.

00:12:21.460 In response to the news, Senator Kelly is defiant the news of this investigation.

00:12:26.340 He wrote this as a statement, quote,

00:12:28.660 Yeah, it's really remarkable.

00:12:47.480 I mean, it just shows that there are there are no lengths to which this administration will not go to use the process of investigation in an effort to punish people it perceives as its adversaries, whether there's any justification or not.

00:13:00.840 And it also shows that we're a government that's based on good faith, the idea that people aren't going to abuse investigative powers, because this isn't a significant power that the military has over everyone who's ever served in uniform.

00:13:13.920 The threat to call somebody back into active duty to court martial them, regardless of whether there's any merit.

00:13:19.860 And I think fair-minded people can look at that and decide for themselves whether there's any merit to the allegation here.

00:13:24.480 It would still be a strain.

00:13:27.220 It would be an inconvenience.

00:13:29.160 It would be it could be emotionally painful, probably not for Mark Kelly, because he's defiant and he's a famous member of Congress.

00:13:34.760 But imagine for someone else that has to go through this, it's a significant threat, just the investigation, just the recall to active duty.

00:13:42.080 And the Trump administration and the Defense Department has now shown that they are willing to to to use this lever of power to just another thing that they're willing to do to pursue their enemies.

00:13:52.360 When I was a kid, my parents would wake us up for school every morning by snapping open the shades and saying, time to rise and shine and show the world what you're made of.

00:14:04.760 Well, it's that time, America.

00:14:07.540 It's time to stand up and show the fools who would frighten us, who would divide us.

00:14:13.860 They were made of stronger stuff that we believe in the rule of law, that we believe in the importance of doing things by the law.

00:14:22.620 So stand tall, shine and keep the faith.

00:14:29.240 What a weird dude.

00:14:30.640 I mean, maybe I'll replay the Taylor Swift video he did.

00:14:34.760 Sterner stuff, a grown ass man that's a Taylor Swift fan.

00:14:40.300 Pathetic.

00:14:41.380 Short break.

00:14:42.800 Will Chamberlain, Article 3 on the other side.

00:14:44.760 Let me be blunt.

00:15:01.120 Gold is up around 40 percent this year.

00:15:03.560 That's not speculation.

00:15:04.920 That's reality.

00:15:05.900 And if a portion of your savings isn't diversified in the gold, you're missing the boat.

00:15:10.820 Here's the facts.

00:15:12.020 Inflation is still too high.

00:15:13.520 The U.S. dollar is still too weak.

00:15:15.040 And the government debt is insurmountable.

00:15:17.500 This is why central banks throughout the world are flocking to gold at record rates.

00:15:23.360 They're the ones driving prices up to new record highs.

00:15:26.820 But it's not too late to buy gold from Birch Gold Group and get in the door now.

00:16:01.940 What else does Birch Gold need to say?

00:16:58.560 I want to thank God.

00:16:59.240 Breaking news from the White House.

00:17:00.580 President Trump has signed.

00:17:02.740 We haven't totally seen it yet, but it's a executive order to start to begin an investigation

00:17:08.480 that can lead to a much bigger investigation.

00:17:10.660 And this is on the Muslim Brotherhood. 0.54

00:17:12.680 That is monumental.

00:17:13.800 I want to thank Patriot Mobile and everybody down in Texas that worked on putting this issue in front of Governor Abbott and the pressure it was put on.

00:17:22.720 Governor Abbott, you've got to give a hat tip.

00:17:24.320 Governor Abbott wrote a very tough, as Brian Harrison said, it's all about the execution, but a very tough executive order from himself on the Muslim Brotherhood and care.

00:17:35.000 And so the White House today come along.

00:17:38.600 And this is a huge contention because, remember, the Muslim Brotherhood has infiltrated, as well as the Chinese Communist Party, many different aspects of our government.

00:17:46.840 That's just a fact.

00:17:47.820 And this is going to be a tractor pull, but at least we started the process right there.

00:17:53.380 Moe and Grace can push that out.

00:17:54.900 I have more to say about that in the next hour.

00:17:57.800 I want to get to kind of this blockbuster that came out this afternoon.

00:18:00.780 Will Chamberlain from Article 3 joins us.

00:18:02.980 So, Will, this was – I misspoke earlier.

00:18:06.180 Comey was not on fraud.

00:18:07.560 Comey is on the perjury situation.

00:18:10.140 All this controversy has the clock run out.

00:18:13.120 You've got Big Tish James with the multiple bank frauds and mortgage. 1.00

00:18:16.860 Just explain to people what was the actual ruling day because they're spiking the football over mainstream media, MSNBC or ShamWow, whatever it is, ShamWow MS right now.

00:18:29.080 They're spiking the football, this humiliation for Halligan, this humiliation for Pam Bondi, this humiliation for Trump.

00:18:36.120 What exactly happened?

00:18:37.200 Well, the district judge dismissed both of the indictments against Comey and James on the grounds that Lindsey Halligan wasn't properly appointed as U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.

00:18:49.920 That holding is wrong.

00:18:51.020 It's probably going to get reversed by the Fourth Circuit and almost certainly it's going to get reversed by the Supreme Court.

00:18:55.720 I mean it's wrong in terms of reading the statute, which is a broad grant of authority to Attorney General Bondi to appoint interim U.S. attorneys.

00:19:03.900 And it's also wrong because the district court's interpretation runs headlong into the separation of powers in our Constitution.

00:19:10.440 It would vest complete authority to appoint U.S. attorneys to district court judges.

00:19:15.320 That's not how our Constitution works.

00:19:18.660 Prosecution is an executive authority.

00:19:20.580 There's no world where Article III has the right, the sole and exclusive right to appoint Article II officials.

00:19:28.700 So, Will, you've got this controversy.

00:19:30.520 Explain to the audience what this interim appointment is because you've got Elaine Habab in New Jersey.

00:19:36.740 And you've got our own Seagal Chatter, the warrior out in Nevada.

00:19:41.140 You've had Halligan.

00:19:42.100 And what is the president's, as the chief magistrate and chief law enforcement officer, what is his ability to appoint these people on interim bases?

00:19:50.520 And why have – and you've got this whole concept with blue slips, particularly in places like New Jersey, in Nevada, in Virginia, in Maryland, where you can't – you know, the people – he's asked, just like he's asked for the filibuster to be reversed.

00:20:05.180 This blue – the blue slip, which is you've got to get approval from the senators, the two senators in your – in the state.

00:20:14.480 And people have said, well, this is a minority – this protects minority rights when the republicans are out of power.

00:20:20.100 But it's been looked at for years, has it not, as a way to – for local politicians not to have people in the opposite party actually look at them as far as fraud goes, money laundering, kickbacks, crony capitalism, et cetera.

00:20:35.660 So explain the blue slips, why the president is upset about it, and also these interim appointments.

00:20:41.960 All right.

00:20:42.580 So the blue slip is a process whereby local U.S. attorneys and local district judges aren't going to be confirmed by the Senate unless they have a Senate of the two senators where that district is.

00:20:54.780 So in this case, it would be – you would need both of the Virginia senators, Mark Warner and Tim Kaine, to consent to Lindsey Halligan to be permanently appointed as the Senate-confirmed U.S. attorney.

00:21:06.080 But U.S. attorneys are inferior officers, and that means that their appointment doesn't have to be done only by presidential advice and Senate consent – or, sorry, presidential appointment and Senate advising consent.

00:21:17.720 Rather, it can be done by methods prescribed by statute, and so one of those methods comes from a statute, 28 U.S.C. 546, the vacancy statute, which lays out a way for the attorney general to make interim appointments.

00:21:32.780 And that's precisely what Pam Bondi did a couple months ago, I think, back in September, when she appointed Lindsey Halligan to be the U.S. attorney for the East District of Virginia.

00:21:43.200 She's allowed to do that by statute. 1.00

00:21:44.740 Now, there's some sort of – the issue being that this – Lindsey Halligan is not the first interim U.S. attorney that has been appointed to the Eastern District of Virginia by Pam Bondi.

00:21:56.640 The prior holder of the office, Eric Siebert, was appointed back in January and had his term extended by the district court in Virginia.

00:22:06.220 So basically, I mean, you heard all these progressive arguments if you were listening to that 10-minute clip, which was kind of like being subjected to a clockwork orange torture session.

00:22:13.840 I'm sorry just making you listen to James Comey like that is – you know, it's not a nice thing to do to your guests, Steve.

00:22:21.380 So I'm a little – I'm still a little – you know, I kind of compose myself.

00:22:25.740 The audience concurs with you.

00:22:28.580 The audience concurs with you.

00:22:29.900 The cold open is driving me crazy.

00:22:32.160 We do that for a reason.

00:22:33.820 But go ahead, sir.

00:22:34.620 But yeah, so you listened, you know, to what they were talking about and just the greed on their faces.

00:22:41.500 Like they were like, aha, this blue slip process allows us to defeat the functioning of the federal government.

00:22:46.220 And that should be a tell that this isn't going to stand up.

00:22:48.620 There's no way that the Supreme Court is going to stand for a process by which, you know, Article III judges and home state senators are able to completely defeat federal prosecutions.

00:22:58.400 Won't happen.

00:22:58.840 Well, talk to me about – you seem pretty – you know, we didn't get the viceroy.

00:23:04.900 He's traveling.

00:23:05.980 You're one of his deputies over at Article III.

00:23:08.440 You seem pretty adamant that this is going to get reversed either at the appellate level or if it has to go in the emergency doctrine of the Supreme Court.

00:23:15.080 One of the reasons people are saying is that this is huge is that they think this gets Comey off because of the statute of limitations.

00:23:21.380 And that was the whole thing was done for by the judge.

00:23:23.880 What say you?

00:23:24.500 Nope.

00:23:26.180 The statute of limitations issue was resolved by a different statute, 18 U.S.C. 3288.

00:23:31.580 So even if the administration loses on the question of whether Lindsay Halligan was properly appointed, they still will have a six-month window to bring the appointment because – I'll just quote from the statute.

00:23:43.080 I have it right in front of me.

00:23:44.140 Whenever an indictment or information charging a felony is dismissed for any reason after the period prescribed by the applicable statute of limitations has expired, a new indictment may be returned in the appropriate jurisdiction within six calendar months.

00:23:57.700 And the only exception to that is if you brought the indictment past the statute of limitations in the first instance.

00:24:02.380 So for any reason includes the U.S. attorney who brought the indictment was properly appointed.

00:24:08.800 So the DOJ will have six months to fix this even if they don't prevail on appeal.

00:24:14.820 But you believe that they're working right now and they're going to go appeal this immediately?

00:24:19.900 Oh, yeah, absolutely.

00:24:20.900 I mean this isn't the first case where we've seen it.

00:24:23.120 We've already – we have appeals going on actually.

00:24:25.320 The cases you talked about, the HABA appeal has already been argued at the Third Circuit.

00:24:29.480 So we're probably going to get an opinion from the Third Circuit there and something I've talked about with some lawyer friends of mine.

00:24:35.220 We wouldn't be surprised to see DOJ try to ask for a certiorari before judgment in one of these cases because you keep seeing this – it's a pure legal dispute about the meaning of this statute.

00:24:46.880 And the implications are being felt all over the country in these various U.S. attorneys' offices because the Democrats are refusing to confirm the president's appointees.

00:24:54.920 So I think the Supreme Court could be persuaded to resolve all of these issues in one fell swoop and just resolve what this law actually means.

00:25:04.700 You know, this audience, they want to see – they're Trump's biggest supporters.

00:25:10.240 They want to see action.

00:25:11.400 You're seeing now DOJ, I think, be much more aggressive but also over the Department of War.

00:25:16.240 You see today they're actually talking about – Pete Hex is in the Department of War talking about recalling Mark Kelly to active duty to the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

00:25:25.080 I think court-martial of him.

00:25:26.660 Your thoughts on the Seditious Six and what action should be taken because the Department of War looks like they're very serious about going – I mean they're looking at the alternatives right now over at JAG on recalling Kelly to active duty and court-martialing him, sir.

00:25:41.060 Well, you actually might have a better handle on the UCMJ than I do given that you served and I didn't and I'm not a military law expert.

00:25:46.560 But I will say this.

00:25:48.060 I don't think the excuses being made by the Seditious Six are particularly persuasive. 0.65

00:25:52.360 They knew exactly what they were doing.

00:25:53.740 They were putting out statements about how you need to disobey unlawful orders and implying extremely strongly that there are some unspecified unlawful orders being issued.

00:26:04.360 I think that – what's the term good order and discipline?

00:26:07.960 I can think a few things more disruptive to good order and discipline than to put rank-and-file service members into the position of wondering exactly which orders they're being given are unlawful without basis or without any real provocation or any reason to bring that thought into their minds.

00:26:24.040 So I think my understanding is that – go ahead.

00:26:26.720 No, do you think Slocking gave away the game yesterday when they asked her point blank on ABC on This Week with George Stephanopoulos, which is not known as a show that brings the hammer to liberals?

00:26:38.660 They asked her – would give us an order and she says they haven't – President Trump hasn't initiated yet.

00:26:43.120 Did that kind of undercut their argument?

00:26:44.900 Yeah, it undercuts their argument dramatically.

00:26:48.460 It also means that there's not really a good argument for the speech and debate clause to immunize their conduct here because for the speech and debate clause to come into play, there has to be some legitimate legislative activity.

00:26:59.400 But if they have no suspicion that there's been any unlawful orders, they can't point to anything, then what are they doing other than trying to disrupt good order and discipline among the rank-and-file?

00:27:10.400 And it's the vice where he tells us they've lost 20 – they've lost 21 or 23 times when they've gone.

00:27:18.060 The Supreme Court's had their back about these orders, particularly with the ICE units.

00:27:21.540 Will, where do people go for Article III and where do they go to get your coordinates on social media, sir?

00:27:28.140 So, yeah, Article III project on X, a3paction.com to look at our various projects where you can tell your senators what you think they should be doing and make it clear.

00:27:39.060 I know the War Room Posse has been very good about that in the past for a lot of our projects.

00:27:43.960 And then finally for myself, at Will Chamberlain on X, I'm pretty prolific there.

00:29:07.780 Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann.

00:29:14.340 Kate, take your phone out.

00:29:16.920 Text Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N, at the number 989898.

00:29:20.600 You get the ultimate guide for investing in gold and precious metals in the age of Trump.

00:29:25.360 This is the one that gets you right to Philip Patrick team.

00:29:27.500 It's not as complicated as the end of the dollar empire because we don't go back through history.

00:29:32.900 This talks to you about the here and now, 401ks, IRAs, tax deferments, something you need to know, quick and dirty.

00:29:39.440 We'll talk more about what we're doing on the end of the dollar empire in a moment.

00:29:45.200 Philip, I asked you to come on today.

00:29:46.640 Gold's back up at $41, I don't know, $39 or $40.

00:29:49.300 And, folks, remember, we never talk about the price of gold here.

00:29:51.680 It's not the price.

00:29:52.520 It's the process that what strives value and what gold has been historically.

00:29:57.420 Now, gold has been a hedge against times of financial turbulence.

00:30:01.460 Now, here recently, it's resetting to become actually a major asset class like it was really, I guess, before the 19th century or before the Great Depression when first Roosevelt and then Nixon took us really off the gold standard.

00:30:16.500 The gold is now, I think, the number two asset in a lot of these central banks after all this buying.

00:30:20.520 And one of the reasons is the stealing of the Russian people's assets. 0.96

00:30:25.040 And they're talking today.

00:30:26.500 The New York Post has got an exclusive scoop that they've now redone this afternoon over at the White House.

00:30:31.800 The 28-point program to now 19 points.

00:30:36.520 And they're trying to refine this.

00:30:37.760 And they're still moving forward in Ukraine.

00:30:39.540 But at the center of this Ukraine situation is the Europeans are broke.

00:30:43.500 They don't have any money.

00:30:44.540 They're going to take the stolen Russian assets and use them to, I don't know, rebuild Ukraine. 0.54

00:30:50.600 The whole thing's a mess.

00:30:51.640 It's one of the reasons the central banks are going back to people don't want to take the euro, right?

00:30:56.600 They're not even taking government securities.

00:30:58.220 They got cash, U.S. dollars, and they got gold.

00:31:00.360 The individuals brought this out the best, I think.

00:31:04.020 And also going to Rio and talking about the Rio Reset and the de-dollarization program is our guest, of course, Philip Patrick.

00:31:09.580 Philip, one thing I just want to get on the table, like you got on the goal is becoming this kind of new asset class that hasn't been in decades,

00:31:17.860 is the situation with crypto.

00:31:19.860 And just the fact that, and I think people got to look at this, crypto, I think, has lost $1.2 trillion in market cap or value in the last three or four weeks.

00:31:30.280 And our concern here is not simply about crypto and part of the audience that owns crypto, but what it can mean as far as pattern recognition.

00:31:37.780 Because what's important here is, as I keep saying, the world has $370, approximately $1 trillion of debt, and we're concerned about the world's largest margin call.

00:31:49.960 And is this potentially the canary in the mine shaft, sir?

00:31:55.480 Yeah, I think absolutely.

00:31:57.700 First of all, it was just a huge amount wiped off the crypto market in a very short space of time, as you say.

00:32:05.280 This isn't just a price drop that we saw, it was a forced deleveraging event.

00:32:10.580 And I think once the big drawdown started, every leveraged player in the space had to unwind positions, and that turns what is a downturn into a cascade.

00:32:20.920 When it comes to crypto, there's stress in a number of different areas.

00:32:24.140 Funding rates have flipped deeply negative, so traders are now paying to stay short.

00:32:29.120 Stablecoin flows have now gone flat, so there's no fresh money entering into the system.

00:32:33.760 And exchanges have seen the biggest sell-off since 2022.

00:32:37.960 People are taking assets off the platform.

00:32:40.640 That isn't speculation, it's fear.

00:32:43.360 But as you mentioned, when you zoom out, there's another layer to this.

00:32:47.640 Crypto was supposed to be the high beta expression of the AI boom, but now we've got the AI story wobbling, we've got liquidity thinning, we've got a Fed that's split right down the middle.

00:32:58.740 So the entire speculative complex is losing oxygen at the same time, which means crypto collapse is not an isolated storm.

00:33:07.480 As you put it, I think it's the canary in the coal mine.

00:33:10.560 We've seen this exact pattern over and over again.

00:33:13.900 We saw it at the turn of the century in 2000.

00:33:15.840 We saw it in 2008, we saw it briefly in 2022.

00:33:19.460 When the system gets shaky, traders dump the lowest quality, highest volatility assets to raise cash and essentially lower their risk exposure.

00:33:29.220 So, yes, crypto is the first domino, but it's not the only one wobbling.

00:33:33.100 We're seeing wider spreads in credit markets.

00:33:35.560 We're seeing hedge funds now deleveraging.

00:33:38.440 Retail investors are pulling to the sidelines.

00:33:40.500 This is a classic flight to quality moment, but the big problem is the so-called risk-free assets, they're not working either.

00:33:51.100 Government debt has been a major loser for the last five years.

00:33:54.840 Cash is a sure loser when we adjust for inflation, and the dollar, as we've discussed many times, is just not acting like the safe haven it once was.

00:34:04.580 The big problem I see is that the safety valve of the financial system is also broken.

00:34:11.980 And when risk assets grow up, you're supposed to move to stable ones.

00:34:16.240 But with over a trillion dollars in annual interest costs, $38 trillion in national debt, and a Fed that's clearly divided on the path forward, those safe haven assets today are now looking risky.

00:34:28.780 So, I think the crypto crash is really a stress test for the entire financial structure.

00:34:35.960 If the riskiest corner is collapsing and the safe corner isn't truly safe, it's telling us something very important.

00:34:43.120 Investors are running out of places to hide within the financial system.

00:34:48.020 And when risk assets crack and safe assets wobble, you need a third category, assets outside of the system.

00:34:55.320 And I think that's why the global rotation into gold will continue, not because of fear, but I think because investors are finally starting to realize that it's the system itself that is the risk.

00:35:08.280 And I think gold will continue to see a pickup.

00:35:11.320 So, yeah, it was a bad month and a bit for crypto, but I think there's a lot worse to come, unfortunately.

00:35:17.020 Well, here, I want to go back.

00:35:20.320 In 2000, it was the internet crash, right, that we didn't recover from.

00:35:23.900 And those were equities.

00:35:24.980 That wasn't, because people had leveraged positions, and that caused kind of a cascade.

00:35:29.960 In 2008, you kind of had a macked at it because that was all these instruments that nobody really realized, and the system almost went down.

00:35:37.680 In fact, if it had not been for a cash infusion of a trillion dollars, I think on the afternoon of 17 September of 2008, it's a famous story.

00:35:46.900 If it hadn't been a trillion dollars of cash infusion, things might have unraveled quite quickly.

00:35:52.240 Here, you use a term, and don't bury the lead.

00:35:56.360 When I say that we are $370 trillion globally of debt, and that's every piece of debt that's out there,

00:36:01.700 from your credit card debt in every country in the world to the junk bonds, the government debt, all of it,

00:36:07.480 you used a term that makes people quiver.

00:36:11.260 I said, or makes them shake in their boots on Wall Street, the toughest of the tough.

00:36:14.920 That is a forced deleveraging or a margin call.

00:36:19.420 It's basically that there's too much debt.

00:36:21.240 Some of the crypto positions were highly leveraged because they wanted more bang for the buck.

00:36:27.900 This is what my concern is.

00:36:29.120 I talked to Philip and I said, hey, I'm very concerned that this crypto meltdown of over, what, $1.2 or $1.5 trillion here recently is going to lead to something else.

00:36:39.500 And I think you just perfectly described it.

00:36:41.300 I just want one more time.

00:36:43.220 I think this is why central banks are also buying gold still at record rates.

00:36:47.020 And it should tell you something.

00:36:48.740 Are we in the second year of central banks buying gold at record rates, Philip?

00:36:54.180 It started in 22, so third year heading into the fourth.

00:36:58.460 And it's picking up, not slowing down.

00:37:01.420 It was literally, and you've had her on your Saliha Motion, what was her book, Paper Soldiers,

00:37:07.760 How the Weaponization of the Dollar Changed the Global Empire.

00:37:12.540 She was absolutely correct.

00:37:13.780 The second we seized Russia's assets, that was the catalyst for central banks to start dumping dollars and buying gold.

00:37:20.680 And obviously, policy since then has escalated.

00:37:23.740 But it started in 22 with the seizure of Russia's assets.

00:37:27.020 And you've said it many times.

00:37:28.520 Listen, a world run by Putin or the Chinese is a frightening proposition for us in the West. 1.00

00:37:33.560 But listen, if you're Russian, it doesn't make sense for you to hold dollars anymore. 1.00

00:37:38.340 If you're Chinese, it's making less and less and less sense. 1.00

00:37:41.920 The reality is we forced their hands, and now they're capitalizing.

00:37:46.300 Well, and people should know that one of the key parts of this negotiation they're having, in fact, I think it's the central key part, because the Europeans, once more, President Trump had him in the Oval Office eight weeks ago, and Macron and Starmer, they all talk big.

00:38:03.560 You know, we're going to do this.

00:38:04.660 We're going to do this.

00:38:05.320 They're all broke.

00:38:06.660 The Fifth Republic's about to end.

00:38:08.540 I don't mean a change of government.

00:38:10.020 I mean a change of the entire system over in France.

00:38:12.900 They're about to say, hey, we've done this for 50 or 60 years.

00:38:15.720 We're going to hit the reset button.

00:38:17.620 And so Germany has no cash.

00:38:20.760 France has no cash.

00:38:22.060 Italy has no cash.

00:38:23.080 The United Kingdom has no cash.

00:38:24.460 You've got two of them, the United Kingdom and France, that are teetering right now.

00:38:28.680 And one of the central things is that they're going to take the Russian people's assets, right? 0.87

00:38:33.600 The Russian people's assets. 0.99

00:38:35.040 I should, besides the United Kingdom, our only other real ally in World War II, I mean, the Poles jumped in and did what they could do. 0.97

00:38:42.620 But all the NATO guys were either with Germany or the fascist war.

00:38:46.800 They were kind of neutral like Sweden and Ireland, which were really not being neutral.

00:38:50.600 If you're not on the side of the guys against the fascists, you're on the side of the fascists.

00:38:55.900 So they're doing something extraordinary, and they're talking about negotiating right now to seize this.

00:39:00.720 This is only going to make people say, hey, while I'm in the euro, I've got to look at these dollars.

00:39:05.700 If I'm putting my money there, they can take it at any time.

00:39:09.260 It's just the judgment of the people at times.

00:39:10.920 This is extraordinary.

00:39:11.560 This was not done to the Nazis.

00:39:13.500 It was not done to Imperial Japan.

00:39:15.060 It was not done to the fascists.

00:39:16.820 We didn't do it to the Chinese Communist Party, Soviets, Bolsheviks, nobody.

00:39:20.700 We're doing it to the Russian people, and that's going to have implications through the system.

00:39:24.860 We criticized this a couple of years ago.

00:39:26.440 They talked about it.

00:39:27.500 It's a central part of the deal because Europe doesn't have any cash.

00:39:30.260 So the reconstruction of Ukraine is going to come from assets of the Russian people.

00:39:34.660 Is that going to drive this even more to gold?

00:39:37.020 Do people just sit there and go, hey, you know, I don't know.

00:39:39.680 This thing is so confusing right now.

00:39:41.940 Gold looks like a safe haven.

00:39:43.540 I'm just going to park my resources into it.

00:39:46.600 The answer is absolutely yes, and we're seeing it.

00:39:49.480 Gold is hitting record high after record high after record high.

00:39:52.540 And the reality is this.

00:39:54.260 It didn't achieve anything.

00:39:56.900 It didn't stop Russia invading Ukraine.

00:39:58.740 It didn't stop them continuing the invasion, right?

00:40:01.800 It didn't really affect their economy very negatively.

00:40:04.620 It just forced them to create new trade partnerships with India and China to move Russian gas.

00:40:10.780 If Russia were not fighting a war today, their economy would be thriving.

00:40:14.900 So not only did it incentivize the world to move off the dollar, it didn't achieve anything.

00:40:19.860 It was a foolish move.

00:40:21.540 Had we saved that silver bullet, waited for the Chinese to mobilize at the South China Sea, that would have been much more effective. 0.99

00:40:30.080 But we didn't do it.

00:40:31.260 So not only did we do something that wasn't effective, that has affected us significantly, we also lost our silver bullet.

00:40:38.840 It's done.

00:40:39.720 I mean, it was an unmitigated disaster.

00:40:43.140 We're paying the price.

00:40:43.980 And I think we're going to continue to pay the price for decades.

00:40:47.960 This is all, you know, President Trump and that's what we look.

00:40:50.600 I understand he's a man of peace, peace through strength.

00:40:54.960 It upsets him.

00:40:55.940 There's been over three million casualties combined.

00:40:58.740 Not only did not cause this, if he had been president, it would have never happened.

00:41:02.460 Also, if he had been a president, this situation with the assets would have never happened.

00:41:06.880 I mean, he's been dealt a terrible, terrible, terrible hand, but that's just the reality of it.

00:41:12.220 I need this audience to have access to you and your team, particularly over the holidays, as they think through the end of the year.

00:44:43.960 Today, we are proud to announce a big step in keeping our rental housing markets fair and competitive.

00:44:49.980 This Department of Justice has taken a major step in lowering the cost of rent in a settlement with RealPage.

00:44:57.920 Our settlement, combined with prior settlements with some landlords, is as good as any relief we would get from a court order after a lengthy and expensive trial.

00:45:08.100 And importantly, it brings that relief to American consumers now, not three years from now.

00:45:13.680 RealPage is an algorithmic pricing system that many large landlords use to coordinate rental prices instead of competing for tenants.

00:45:23.840 Landlords fed their confidential data into a shared algorithm that generated daily rent recommendations.

00:45:31.260 RealPage was replacing competition with coordination, and renters paid the price.

00:45:37.100 We reached a settlement that stops RealPage from coordinating pricing with its customers.

00:45:41.920 Under the settlement, the company must stop using competitors' landlords' secret data to set rents in real time.

00:45:50.480 And its software can no longer generate hyper-localized pricing that pushes rents up block by block.

00:45:57.340 And RealPage must eliminate features that discourage landlords from lowering prices or that nudged competitors toward the same rent levels.

00:46:07.560 What does this mean for you and your family?

00:46:09.900 It means more real competition in local housing markets.

00:46:14.880 It means rents set by the market, not by a secret algorithm.

00:46:19.300 It is a win for renters, and it means more affordable options for Americans trying to make ends meet.

00:46:26.340 The cost of living is top of mind as we continue to do our important work at the Trump Antitrust Division.

00:46:32.600 Thank you for your attention to this matter, and thanksgiving wishes to you all, even the haters.

00:46:41.880 Gail Slater.

00:46:43.540 God, I love you.

00:46:44.720 So, Gail, you're going to stick with us at 6 o'clock hours.

00:46:47.280 We've got a lot more to ask about antitrust and what you're doing over at Main Justice.

00:46:51.000 But talk to me about this.

00:46:52.560 This is where President Trump's a free market guy.

00:46:55.220 You get these computers.

00:46:56.480 You get this algorithm.

00:46:57.280 What was this?

00:46:58.340 What was this?

00:46:59.080 It was actually a computer that set the price that was not a fair market price?

00:47:03.860 Basically, yes.

00:47:04.520 So, it's a piece of software that algorithmically was sorting prices that were going up across millions of rental properties across the country.

00:47:13.760 And it was analyzing the pricing data, sending it back to the markets, to the landlords.

00:47:19.880 One landlord that we settled with already had a million rental units under management.

00:47:25.040 And those prices, those rental prices in those local markets were going up, not down.

00:47:29.980 And so, we settled with RealPage.

00:47:33.860 We've already settled with the biggest landlord, and we'll keep going.

00:47:36.840 As you know, we're very, very focused on affordability and cost of living, in particular for our young people.

00:47:44.020 Millennials spend about a third of their monthly income on their rent alone. 0.56

00:47:48.500 And then there's the cost of utilities and so on and so forth.

00:47:51.000 So, we're very mission-oriented around this right now.

00:47:54.060 Was this an action that you guys brought, or was this case brought to you by somebody else?

00:48:02.040 So, this was a case that was initially opened on the Biden administration.

00:48:05.440 Our cases are not done in Trump time.

00:48:07.640 We need to get faster about that.

00:48:09.900 But it was a holdover case.

00:48:12.240 And we, unlike the Biden administration, they didn't settle too many cases.

00:48:16.640 We took the view that this was one we could settle.

00:48:18.460 We could get a better deal for consumers today than if, even if we went to court.

00:48:22.980 And three years from now, we prevailed after a very costly litigation involving a lot of taxpayer money and our own resources that could be better spent elsewhere.

00:48:33.040 So, that's what we're about, and that's where we got to today.

00:48:35.960 We're very happy with the results here.

00:48:38.980 And what's the, if I'm some millennial and renting an apartment, what does this mean for me starting tomorrow morning?

00:48:44.980 Tomorrow morning, it should mean that your landlord is going to start looking harder at those rental contracts and revising those rents downwards.

00:48:55.820 And we are already seeing price drops in the relevant markets where we, you know, we know we had a lot of units under the control of Graystar.

00:49:04.720 And we expect to see more of that.

00:49:06.560 Will you take, if people don't go back to the free market and continue to kind of use this, will you go to court and try to shut them down or bring penalties against them?

00:49:17.860 A hundred percent.

00:49:19.300 A hundred percent.

00:49:19.900 We can enforce this order.

00:49:21.580 We can enforce an order violation if we see conduct that's contrary to the conduct they signed up for under this order.

00:49:28.180 Okay, Gail, can you hang on for a second?

00:49:32.560 Gail Slater over at Maine Justice, she's the head of the Antitrust Division, which is one of the biggest and most powerful and most important of all the divisions within the Department of Justice.

00:49:42.660 And we've known Gail from the first term.

00:49:44.720 Gail was in the White House with us in the National Security Council.

00:49:47.920 She'll join us at the 6 o'clock hour in a few minutes to discuss more things about antitrust.

00:49:54.420 We know everybody in the war room is a once entrepreneurial capitalism, entrepreneurial finance.

00:49:59.820 Mike Lindell, we couldn't get a better entrepreneur than you.

00:50:02.240 They've been trying to put you out of business.

00:50:04.320 I got to introduce you to Gail Slater, man.

00:50:06.440 You could use the Justice Department coming in on your side.

00:50:12.140 I spent all afternoon, Steve, with lawyers today filling out interrogatories for both a machine company, I won't mention no names, I all know who they are, and our AG in Minnesota attacking MyPillow's, I mean, the Lindell Recovery Network.
