Bannon's War Room - Episode 4985： Live Coverage From Trump's Rally In Mt. Poco

00:00:00.000 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

00:00:07.520 Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.

00:00:12.760 You've just not got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.

00:00:17.020 The people have had a belly full of it.

00:00:18.960 I know you don't like hearing that.

00:00:20.380 I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that,

00:00:22.120 but you're not going to stop it.

00:00:23.040 It's going to happen.

00:00:24.300 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?

00:00:27.720 MAGA media.

00:00:28.620 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:00:34.520 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:00:38.260 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:00:44.620 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.

00:00:53.180 Okay, welcome. It's Tuesday, 9th, December, in the year of our Lord, 2025.

00:00:56.940 You're looking there, right there, at the Mount Airy Casino.

00:01:02.580 I guess the Poconos can see, but outside Scranton, Pennsylvania.

00:01:07.600 Why is Scranton so important, folks?

00:01:09.740 How many times have we go over this?

00:01:12.100 Remember the 2020 election, the rubs of 2020?

00:01:14.720 We did all the analysis of, you know, he was Joe from Scranton.

00:01:17.900 Remember that? Remember that lie?

00:01:19.200 I'm Joe from Scranton.

00:01:21.960 This is how they tried to make Biden a populist. 0.68

00:01:26.460 It's a guy from Delaware, the corporate capital of America, Wilmington, Delaware.

00:01:32.160 You never heard that.

00:01:32.980 They would never allow that to be talked about in the 2020 campaign.

00:01:38.980 Scranton was everything.

00:01:39.860 We used to do analysis.

00:01:40.700 We had people up there.

00:01:42.300 Same in 2024.

00:01:44.960 Scranton's one of those bellwethers.

00:01:47.580 Are we doing the national anthem right now?

00:01:50.140 Can we go?

00:01:50.700 I see people standing.

00:01:52.540 Maybe my glasses aren't good enough.

00:01:55.300 If we have audio, as soon as we have audio, I want to hear the national anthem and all that.

00:01:59.080 Can we go?

00:01:59.740 Do we have it?

00:02:00.240 USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!

00:02:19.080 We missed the national anthem.

00:02:21.040 USA! USA! USA!

00:02:23.420 Okay.

00:02:24.160 Right there.

00:02:25.900 The president's going to go very cramped, jam-packed.

00:02:28.980 If you saw earlier, massive trial to get in here.

00:02:33.060 We'll go to the stage as soon as they're going to have some pregame.

00:02:35.840 Scott Besson is there, the secretary of treasury.

00:02:39.360 Ernie Preate, the 80s-some year.

00:02:42.980 Can I still get some ambient noise?

00:02:46.220 Let's go ahead and do it.

00:02:46.900 Please welcome local first responder, Kyle Kashuk.

00:02:58.980 Good evening, Northeastern Pennsylvania.

00:03:13.340 My name is Kyle.

00:03:14.620 Am I proud to be here tonight?

00:03:16.620 I am a born and raised Pennsylvania and working as a police officer and volunteer firefighter

00:03:21.960 just 10 minutes away from my childhood home in Luzerne County.

00:03:32.020 As a police officer, I work a lot of overtime.

00:03:35.240 For some people, overtime is optional.

00:03:37.860 But for first responders, overtime is a reality of the job.

00:03:41.420 Communities depend on us to be there in a crisis, whether it happens at Sunday at 3 p.m. or Tuesday at 3 a.m.

00:03:49.360 I am proud of the work I do, and I'm happy to do it.

00:03:52.540 But the hours could take a toll.

00:03:54.220 But knowing now that this work isn't going to be taxed, well, that really goes a long way.

00:04:00.280 Congressman Bresnahan helped pass the historic legislation President Trump signed

00:04:04.780 that is going to put more money in the pockets of working families and first responders like me.

00:04:17.900 Making overtime tax-free helps us stretch our paychecks further at a time when everything feels more expensive.

00:04:24.540 The extra money in my pocket is going towards putting down roots, buying a house, and starting a family.

00:04:28.600 We're going to have some pregame.

00:04:30.640 I really feel supported by this policy.

00:04:32.660 We're going to have some pregame.

00:04:37.920 We've got many moving parts here.

00:04:41.080 Brian Glenn is actually with the president.

00:04:43.000 We're going to try to get some helicopter shots.

00:04:44.800 I think the president's arriving.

00:04:46.220 And, of course, the president is going to obviously, when he gets there, as we take you through these.

00:04:51.920 Can we just take that down just one more notch?

00:04:53.560 There we go.

00:04:54.060 Thank you.

00:04:55.640 I'm going to produce, direct, and star in this today.

00:04:59.500 We've also got Ernie Preet is going to join as soon as he gets up on the riser.

00:05:04.180 Brian Glenn is around.

00:05:05.060 We're going to get up on the riser.

00:05:06.720 There's going to be some talks beforehand, some commentary from local congressmen.

00:05:11.300 Remember, there are two congressional seats in play up here.

00:05:15.380 Scranton is obviously very important.

00:05:18.020 Scranton, geo-strategically, when you talk about national elections, it's kind of a bellwether.

00:05:24.780 Pennsylvania is a swing state and a bellwether state.

00:05:27.940 And, of course, Scranton has a strong America First following of the president.

00:05:34.240 Biden was able to steal it.

00:05:36.140 Remember mail-in ballots in 2020?

00:05:38.220 But they made a big deal about Joe Biden being the populist from Scranton.

00:05:42.900 Populist Joe from Scranton.

00:05:44.820 I think he spent a minute there when he was born, really from Delaware, the corporate box.

00:05:49.700 The president today, and you saw in the background, when we go back to the shot, the establishing shot, I'll show you.

00:05:57.720 They've got a phrase in the background about making prices lower, making prices affordable.

00:06:02.080 Two things that this is going to talk about today.

00:06:05.640 One is obviously affordability, but you don't want to walk into that trap because you have cumulative inflation under Biden at 21 percent.

00:06:13.000 It's going to be very, very difficult to basically get those prices down, even with President Trump's full spectrum energy dominance, other things he's doing on the supply chain, direct action.

00:06:23.820 He's taking presidential action.

00:06:25.660 It is possible to stop the rate of inflation or to get that down.

00:06:29.380 And I think that's what the Secretary of Treasury, Scott Besson, is working on with the president.

00:06:34.460 The other part, as we continue to say, I think the much bigger payoff, particularly if you look at the Secretary of Treasury, what he's telling us is that the big, beautiful bill, the supply-side tax cut, plus the trade and tariffs with – what do we have there?

00:06:49.720 Is that Ernie?

00:06:51.300 Oh, is that the president?

00:06:52.140 Let's go and cut to that.

00:06:53.740 What do we have there?

00:06:54.500 Is that the helicopter?

00:06:56.060 Yes.

00:06:57.200 There we go right there.

00:06:58.180 Okay, that's the – we took Air Force One up there, and now we've taken a helicopter in.

00:07:18.180 Okay, that's at the local airport.

00:07:24.240 Flown in there many, many times.

00:07:26.140 Crowd to meeting.

00:07:27.460 President Trump, there we go right there.

00:07:29.040 Okay.

00:07:29.120 Thank you.

00:07:40.680 Have a great.

00:07:54.020 Thank you.

00:07:54.680 our own brian glenn is with him we'll get a report uh let's go ahead and come back to me

00:08:04.760 um we'll get to brian glenn as soon as we get him up on uh traveling with the president today

00:08:11.720 this economic speech the president has made a decision to president trump is saying hey i've

00:08:16.540 heard a lot of people talk and you know i'm not paying enough attention domestic i'm going to go

00:08:20.920 on the road and sell this myself president trump i think feels that he's the best salesman for his

00:08:25.820 economic program a big part of the sales uh the sales pitch today is to focus on what's happened

00:08:31.720 on the big beautiful bill particularly on the investment side the capital investment to bring

00:08:37.180 back manufacturing jobs obviously pennsylvania in the scranton area being a uh around a manufacturing

00:08:44.320 hub this is very very important the the write-off uh president trump has given people the depreciation

00:08:49.460 president trump has given people um the other is tariff and trade they're trying to blame inflation

00:08:55.880 on tariffs nothing could be farther uh from the uh from the truth the tariffs are generating uh i think

00:09:02.620 quite frankly very surprising returns to treasury scott benson will tell you that but that's not the

00:09:08.880 purpose of the tariffs the tariffs are a forcing function to drive manufacturing back here to the

00:09:14.700 united states from uh international uh companies and other countries uh you have to if you don't

00:09:21.560 bring your manufacturing back to the united states you'll pay a you'll pay a tariff you'll pay a

00:09:25.560 tolling fee to get access to the most lucrative consumer market in the world it's just pretty

00:09:30.200 straightforward those are two massive bets we for 50 or 60 years we've allowed trade and manufacturing

00:09:37.720 or really manufacturing to atrophy and therefore we've had these massive trade deficits and people

00:09:43.480 on wall street and the elites just laughed at lou dobbs and others peter navarro myself and others

00:09:49.140 to talk about trade deficits and how big i think the trade deficit is something like 24 trillion dollars

00:09:54.900 right now and how they laugh that oh that's just an accounting convention it's not accounting convention

00:09:59.440 that all has to be financed if you have negative trade balances somehow you've got to finance the

00:10:04.160 purchases from the american people so that's basically your resources going out and stuff coming in

00:10:12.820 you've got to uh you've got to balance that uh it's it's very logical it's fought all the time

00:10:18.340 by wall street wall street hates to talk about it president trump is the first to really talk about it and

00:10:24.120 this time in his second term he had the opportunity to do something about it now he's getting uh a full-on

00:10:30.040 volley from uh the haters every day the economists uh the business types that hate uh that hate uh fair

00:10:37.980 trade and want to go back to the system that we were just ripped off all the time president trump

00:10:42.940 and the national security memorandum they just put on a friday talked about it's the first time really

00:10:46.800 as we've said before you focus on your trade and uh and and and deficits along with uh your national

00:10:54.680 security in nato we pay essentially we we underwrite their security and on all the trade deals over

00:11:01.920 there we were upside down particularly as they as they negotiate uh a lot just on the the whole

00:11:07.540 you're for the eu we were upside down and upside down with different nations and particularly on

00:11:12.720 different things whether it's cars in germany or other manufactured goods that were made throughout

00:11:17.660 the rest of europe and president trump says we're not going to do that anymore we're going to get a

00:11:21.020 trade deal that's going to help balance what we do in paying for your national security and this

00:11:25.640 national security memo they put out on thursday night friday morning he said hey look here's the

00:11:30.500 problem we don't even know we have no idea who's going to be in charge in 30 years because we look

00:11:36.400 at or 20 or 30 years because we look at what's happening to your countries we look at this flood

00:11:41.180 of uh of illegal migration he said again to dasha burns on political and it has the entire european

00:11:47.760 uh group uh with their heads blown up president trump that's why he's going to scranton today kicks

00:11:54.480 off at least an end of year and you're going to see it next year at the beginning of the year

00:11:58.060 president trump going on the road and explaining to the american people in a very straightforward

00:12:02.500 language here's what i've done economically he gave him he gave himself a grade this morning for

00:12:09.360 the economy of a plus plus plus plus uh and i like i said reporters talked about how could trump do that

00:12:15.880 i said listen he is the architect he's the architect of of this economic plan scott besant and others

00:12:22.940 navarro are kind of the engineers to come in and help execute on his plan but his plan is very

00:12:28.760 straightforward he's going to make america great again by bringing back manufacturing uh jobs the

00:12:35.860 united states how's he going to do that he's going to get capital invested in the united states he's going

00:12:40.300 to give quite frankly very attractive tax benefits to companies that will invest now and invest in plant

00:12:48.840 and equipment for high value added manufacturing jobs in addition on the world's commercial

00:12:53.800 relationships and these trade deals he will go is from liberation day i think to april until today

00:13:00.660 have teams you know howard lutnik leading some uh uh jameson greer the trade rep heading others scott

00:13:08.120 besson secretary treasurer really working on the china deal to head those to make sure that he's trying

00:13:13.340 to negotiate as rapidly as possible not over a number of years but within 10 months to a year

00:13:19.520 trade deals that then give countries an option if you're going to invest here in the united states

00:13:24.640 you can avoid the tariffs if you're not going to invest in the united states that's fine but you're

00:13:29.560 going to pay a different tariff structure for different uh categories of uh of goods and service

00:13:35.180 services now president trump keeps pointing to 18 trillion dollars has been agreed to

00:13:39.580 to come and invest if even a trillion dollars that is spent in the first part of next year

00:13:45.600 you're going to have an economic boom like this country's never seen before and you've had the

00:13:49.680 corporations taking advantage of the tax benefits of the big beautiful bill not the you know not

00:13:56.120 billionaires getting tax cuts companies incentivized to invest in plant equipment that workers today

00:14:03.740 and in future generations are going to have a great great opportunity to really work

00:14:08.140 and what america's best at high value added manufacturing of course now we're into this

00:14:14.080 whole situation with artificial intelligence president trump who sees it one way is looking at

00:14:19.160 uh at least as he's briefed by a jensen wong and these people that united states will dominate

00:14:24.660 uh not just with us having these chips but with china actually having chips also now there's a lot of

00:14:30.480 people that beg to differ with that uh we're going to have uh michael sobolik sobolik from the hudson

00:14:36.320 institute next hour we're going to walk through details of what the chinese communist party's been

00:14:41.800 up to so there's a lot of questions there anyway the president united states is in scranton

00:19:05.260 catch up with you on your on the 250th uh anniversary of the united states marine corps

00:19:10.940 before we talk about the speech and about scranton talk to us about the marines you were with that

00:19:15.500 weekend uh a bunch of vietnam vets uh what uh what happened well thank you very much steve for having

00:19:23.920 me back on and uh yeah we had our 250th anniversary uh the marine corps birthday on november 10th and

00:19:31.480 we celebrated in philadelphia with my mike 37 combat unit from vietnam which i was a second lieutenant in

00:19:38.240 and uh we had a great reunion and uh was attended by several generals who were from from our company that

00:19:46.120 made it to the higher ranks lieutenant general paul van ryper and and brigadier general tom drowdy and

00:19:52.580 uh the marine corps is uh in a state of flux right now and so we're trying to keep it to be the fighting

00:19:58.220 force that it's always been for america preserving the sacred honor of this country it seems like

00:20:04.920 every time they come to a budget the marine corps is always in flux so we'll make sure we have the

00:20:09.060 marine corps back in this what was a general uh temper or take of the men that you served within

00:20:15.060 vietnam and gave so much in vietnam about the state of the country today as they see it ernie

00:20:20.240 well we're we're the state of the country back then was we got home and nobody even wanted to

00:20:26.660 talk to us they spit on us but now they want to talk to vietnam veterans because they seem like they 0.99

00:20:31.500 have a lot of sense and went through a lot of hard times and the sacrifice so much we one of the

00:20:36.280 you know 68 000 uh people were killed in the armed forces over there and so it was was not an

00:20:43.460 insignificant uh battle for us but today the the the energy that we're seeing in in america is

00:20:50.700 because it's president trump uh we're seeing republicans for example registering democrats

00:20:56.740 in pennsylvania enormously we're almost tied with them now this is eight eight a couple three years

00:21:01.680 ago we're 800 000 down now we're almost even uh the other thing that's important about pennsylvania

00:21:07.100 is that we got farmers here and that farm bill is really important to us uh we needed to get that

00:21:13.380 soybeans out there we need to get that sorghum and uh out to china and that was accomplished by

00:21:18.700 president trump and the secretary besant did it was doing a terrific job in negotiating with the

00:21:24.340 chinese the next thing we know is we've got all the uh the gas and in the world that we need here 0.76

00:21:29.580 with the with the with the marcellus shale the utica shale it's right there we could be the energy

00:21:34.400 capital of the whole world and all we have to do is build the ships to take it over europe and that's

00:21:40.040 what we're going to try to do that's what scott besant did he got the south koreans to agree to

00:21:44.700 use the philadelphia naval base as the reconstruction base for the for the building of these lng tankers

00:21:50.120 have a whole convoy like we had in world war ii going over to europe and and just think about that

00:21:55.740 you re-energize the south philadelphia naval base and you make it the the greatest naval base in in in in

00:22:03.480 the east coast uh and it'll be the center point for bringing natural gas from pennsylvania over to

00:22:09.360 europe and save them from the soviets that's those are just important things that we do that the

00:22:14.880 president has done here in this country well talk to us about scranton why does everybody focus on

00:22:19.940 scranton as you remember in 20 in 2016 when we were going to pierce the blue wall scrant was one of the

00:22:25.600 places that we focused on we kind of caught clinton then by surprise because they didn't focus on

00:22:29.980 scranton in 2020 everybody focused on scranton it was the number one place people looked at

00:22:34.540 joe biden made up this big legacy that he was joe from scranton uh etc why is scranton pennsylvania so

00:22:41.620 important well scranton's important because it's a cross-section of america uh if you know you can

00:22:49.900 sell it in scranton you can sell it anywhere but the important thing is here that we got people who are

00:22:54.720 people who are poor and and we have people who are rich and we have people in between

00:22:59.960 and it's a it's a good rural suburban area and it's important or as a bellwether as to what's

00:23:05.620 going to happen in the economy right now we're still a little suffering here we still got prices

00:23:10.000 too high the president's trying to address that we still got gas prices a little bit too high still

00:23:15.500 got to address that still got inflation and the biggest thing is we still have interest rates that

00:23:21.280 are too high and i hope the federal reserve tomorrow gets its act in gear and gets a cut side starts

00:23:26.240 cutting those interest rates so we can sell more homes more people can buy mortgages what's the

00:23:32.180 general temper of of voters right now in pennsylvania particularly people that supported

00:23:36.260 president trump what what what how do they think we're doing well trump is trump is in a flux right

00:23:44.220 now because he's made a lot of promises he's trying to deliver he's working to get them delivered

00:23:49.920 making these trade agreements all over the the world uh including with the chinese so he can get those 0.99

00:23:55.820 magnets to work our rare earth minerals those are important for us uh and and we have to have

00:24:01.680 we have to have the people recognize that what he's doing to try to bring peace to the world

00:24:07.420 is is significant for humanity uh and it's been it's been very difficult because he's doing so much

00:24:14.040 he can all these other things that he's accomplished when get lost in the details and people don't

00:24:18.000 recognize it but the the next year the most important thing i want to get across is this

00:24:22.840 next year the the big beautiful bill kicks in oh the no taxes and the reduced taxes and most the

00:24:30.120 other thing is this is that people forget about that there's a lot of refunds going to be coming

00:24:35.180 back in in the first quarter of this coming year and that's going to be a tremendous stimulus to the

00:24:41.200 economy and so so you're going to have the the big beautiful bill going into effect you're going to

00:24:46.640 have the the uh the refunds coming back to people as a stimulus and you're going to have these trade

00:24:51.760 agreements kicking in so by the second term second quarter of this coming year we're going to be a

00:24:56.760 we're going to be roaring this country's going to be exploding and that's what president trump is in

00:25:01.520 he's in it for the long haul ernie this is also the president's coming up because there's two

00:25:06.840 congressional districts up there they're vitally important for us to hold the house can you give

00:25:10.520 us your assessment of the uh of the house race in pennsylvania in 2026

00:25:21.640 congressman down here in uh in the area around mount pocono so yeah we we have we have we have to

00:25:27.800 keep those seats you only have a two-vote lead in the house and if we don't if we don't have that

00:25:32.420 you're not going to get anything in the way of reform done everything gets stalled so you got to win

00:25:37.620 those for those races and they're very competitive they're very strong candidates and they know how to

00:25:42.420 win they've proven that they know how to win we got a we got a congressman down in the york and uh

00:34:03.540 stage secretary treasury scott bessen good and the uh thank you all it's good to be back in pennsylvania

00:34:24.180 i hear scranton is sleepy joe biden's hometown but it's but as far as i can tell this is trump country

00:34:39.060 pennsylvanians elected president trump for a second term because they had had enough of a president who

00:34:44.660 put america last biden and his biden and his auto pen were the chief architects of the worst inflation

00:34:53.780 biden inflation in a generation his administration made life impossible expensive for american families

00:35:02.820 through a toxic mix of what i call the three eyes immigration interest rates and inflation

00:35:11.220 biden's immigration free-for-all was among the greatest abuses of power ever imposed on the american 0.54

00:35:18.020 people

00:35:22.900 by allowing 10 to 20 million illegal aliens into the country against the will of voters the last

00:35:30.180 administration stole both jobs and homes from american families home prices and rents soared as

00:35:38.820 millions of illegal aliens who were never supposed to be here in the first place competed for housing

00:35:45.300 and wages cratered from the glut of new labor supply biden's open borders effectively created a black market

00:35:54.820 in labor that kept wages for working americans artificially suppressed

00:36:01.460 thousands of our own citizens suddenly found themselves out of work or working a job that

00:36:07.220 barely paid the rent at the same time they saw their rent costs climbing higher why because they now

00:36:15.140 had to compete for a limited number of homes against a seemingly unlimited number of illegals 0.98

00:36:22.420 that's right donald trump stood above the endless stream of illegal immigration yelling stop stop

00:36:33.940 and this is why pennsylvania and americans voted for him in a landslide president trump promised to secure the border

00:36:47.620 and return american jobs and homes to american citizens through the largest deportation effort of the century

00:36:55.780 he has delivered on that promise in every day every way

00:37:01.860 common sense common sense simply closing the border our president is bringing an end to illegal

00:37:09.780 wage suppression to put american workers first 0.61

00:37:21.300 and his policies are already bearing fruit real wages across the country are up one percent on the year

00:37:28.980 the first time in four years we are witnessing a blue-collar boom with real wages for blue-collar workers

00:37:36.500 under president trump increasing at one of the fastest rates in the last half century

00:37:43.380 almost in line with his first term thank

00:37:53.620 thanks to the president's efforts to clean up illegal immigration he is fixing high home cost as well

00:38:00.340 rents have come down significantly consider that the average national price of rent has

00:38:06.020 increased five percent since the peak of biden's immigration insanity 0.52

00:38:18.100 we expect average home prices to follow suit as deportations unlock more housing supply

00:38:25.700 the second eye that made life unbearable for american families under biden was interest rates which

00:38:32.020 climbed at an unprecedented rate while he was in office but president trump is fixing that too

00:38:39.300 high interest rates make life more expensive for american families but they are coming down under

00:38:45.220 president trump the bond market had its best year best year since 2020 and if i have anything to say about

00:38:52.980 it as your nation's top bond salesman bonds will have another strong year in 2026 as we fight to bring

00:39:01.700 treasury borrowing costs down

00:39:10.180 lower treasury borrowing costs mean lower mortgage rates lower car payments and lower credit card bills

00:39:17.780 which all translates to greater buying power for all americans

00:39:21.460 the third eye that drove the cost of living crisis under biden was inflation

00:39:33.140 the previous administration ran up the highest deficit in u.s history outside of a recession or wartime

00:39:41.620 as a result inflation skyrocketed to a 40 year high as secretary right the highest in his lifetime in my lifetime

00:39:50.740 families watched their hard-earned savings melt away as prices of consumer goods climbed ever higher

00:39:59.220 as with immigration the biden administration stole from the american people through inflation

00:40:06.900 consider that 42 percent 42 percent of inflation under biden was triggered by his administration's

00:40:14.100 runaway deficit spending inflation is the ultimate stealth tax it's the government's way of spending money it

00:40:22.660 doesn't have and devaluing yours biden ran up america's credit card and left all of us here to foot the bill

00:40:32.020 in the form of higher prices and groceries gasoline clothes and other goods we depend on

00:40:40.260 this is just one more reason voters like you elected president trump president trump is stamping out

00:40:48.660 by inflation for good and we fully expect fully expected to roll down next year prices went up under biden

00:40:58.580 because his central planning policies created scarcity scarcity in nearly every sector of the economy

00:41:05.540 economy from housing and energy to credit and consumer goods this made inflation even worse than it would

00:41:12.740 have been as a result of deficit spending alone but where biden created scarcity president trump is creating

00:41:19.460 abundance thanks to president trump's efforts on deregulation america's businesses are able to build and

00:41:27.620 innovate innovate again thanks to his one big beautiful bill americans are taking home more of their hard-earned

00:41:35.940 income as a result of no tax and tips no tax on overtime no tax on social security and deductibility

00:41:44.100 of auto loans for american-made cars american-made cars

00:41:51.860 and and thanks to his heroic efforts in trade trillions of dollars in new investment have

00:41:58.980 flowed into the united states and our workers are finally able to compete on an even playing field

00:42:04.740 these these policies in combination are driving a boost in production that will lower the prices of

00:42:17.060 goods for all american in 2026 while also creating jobs and increasing incomes this is the formula for

00:42:24.420 prosperity lowering prices raising incomes every component of the trump economic agenda is in pursuit of these twin

00:42:41.380 goals under president trump scarcity is giving way to prosperity the benefits of his agenda are now

00:42:50.740 rippling through the economy and those ripples will become waves as his agenda gathers force in 2026

00:42:59.380 president trump has put a decisive end to the three eyes i would add a fourth one insanity under joe biden

00:43:09.300 insanity

00:43:09.940 our great president is ushering in a golden age economy by making america affordable again we're

00:43:23.780 grateful to have you with us and i look forward to the president speaking to all of you this evening

00:43:29.620 it's great to be with you thank you

00:43:38.340 is that incredible see scott started here as a contributor giving a speech right there as secretary

00:43:44.580 treasurer is fantastic i think that summarizes it talks about both the affordability issue

00:43:49.780 it also look at that lower prices higher paychecks bigger paychecks that's good like domestic very

00:43:55.540 straightforward president trump kicks off his uh he's going to go around the country and sell his

00:44:01.620 economic plan he's the best to do it he realizes that he's going to take scott best on some of these

00:44:07.460 secretary rights secretary energy all of it very very very impressive uh do we have the can i play the

00:44:13.380 clip of um the president's running a little late i'm not sure the speech is going to start until 6 30

00:44:18.260 there'll be some congressmen and other people up do we have the uh do we have the clip is that ready

00:44:22.580 let me go ahead and play a clip this about the uh now the um uh the ai amnesty is out of the uh is

00:44:31.220 out of any of the bills at nda or any of the must pass or any of the appropriations bill they're now

00:44:36.260 going to try to craft some sort of executive order mike davis the um mike davis the viceroy is working

00:44:43.700 with the white house on this of course people have to see what the details are this is one of the spots

00:44:48.340 uh brendan uh stein stein house um made this for the group that he's got a lot of these are coming

00:44:54.900 out right now as we try to sort out what's happening with the ai amnesty let's go ahead and play it as

00:45:00.820 congress stalls on ai it's the states red and blue stepping up to protect americans texas banned

00:45:07.780 discriminatory ai and cracked down on deep fakes utah now requires you to be told when you're talking to

00:45:13.700 ai tennessee's elvis act protects your voice and likeness montana florida arkansas and pennsylvania

00:45:20.740 are all taking action to stop deep fakes block harmful ai systems and keep kids safe this is

00:45:26.180 what americans want across all ages and incomes americans are in support of states taking the

00:45:31.700 lead and keeping families safe new polling shows that 57 percent of americans oppose washington blocking

00:45:38.100 state ai laws only 19 support federal preemption my home state of texas they passed some meaningful

00:45:44.500 legislation to protect kids to prevent ai generated pornography they've prevented the

00:45:50.420 state from using ai for a social credit system let states protect their people from big tech ceos

00:45:56.820 tell washington hands off our state ai laws visit statesoverceos.com

00:46:02.260 i think one of the key things here is you just can't do these in the dark of night i mean the

00:46:08.340 david sachs and the berlgarks completely misled the president this could just be slipped in there

00:46:13.620 it's going to be easy it's not you have to have a discussion you have to have a debate about this

00:46:18.340 uh clearly it may be a little cumbersome to have these states uh do this but in the absence of

00:46:24.020 anything something's going to fill that vacuum and so there has to be some discussion at the federal

00:46:28.740 level exactly what you're talking about also the genesis mission chris right there the secretary

00:46:34.100 of energy said hey this we want to have ai dominance naturally but we have to understand

00:46:40.740 what that dominance is going to be and if we don't want the chinese communist party to be competitive

00:46:46.500 there are methods to do that number one you don't let jensen wong talk into selling high-end chips

00:46:52.020 they're a couple of years behind us right now there's certain aspects they may be ahead

00:46:56.340 but if you cut them off from equity capital you cut them off from debt capital you cut them off from

00:47:00.180 all the capital markets in the united states you cut them off to how to build the ecosystem what i mean

00:47:05.060 by the ecosystem the training the know-how the expertise the knowledge uh training these chinese

00:47:12.580 engineers in our own colleges and then have them go back to compete with us who does that

00:47:17.060 who does that would the chinese do that for us no they wouldn't would the chinese ever sell these

00:47:20.900 chips us if they if they had and we didn't no they wouldn't uh we're gonna have one of the

00:47:25.140 experts on next in the next hour to go through this in detail but this is a debate you have to have

00:47:31.940 you're just not gonna be able to slide it in and now i hope and i i think people that are

00:47:37.540 have a better big picture of this are now talking to the president i think the executive war was

00:47:42.980 supposed to be signed on friday it wasn't uh and clearly you want to dominate uh artificial intelligence

00:47:48.900 on that there's no question but you also have to have guardrails for what the these institutions uh

00:47:55.540 particularly the four frontier labs of altman and musk and these people are doing and what they're

00:48:02.100 doing with your money now i might add there's a there's it's out today i've got to verify the math

00:48:07.940 but they're talking about spacex and elmo got all upset that uh i said hey we're going to take 50

00:48:15.380 percent of the equity on an 800 billion valuation hello they're talking about the valuation today

00:48:21.220 and the starlink is part of it at 1.5 trillion dollars this is why jacob isaacman is now is or

00:48:29.300 they're going to go get confirmed as head of nasa that whole game has been exposed because elmo elon's

00:48:34.820 got to have somebody that can sit there and give him almost a hundred percent i think 97 launch capacity

00:48:40.980 over at nasa this thing started it was five billion dollars 50 billion dollars and look he's got an

00:48:48.100 aip so i'm sure he's got the starlink piece it's we've got to break it all down but they're talking

00:48:52.420 about a valuation of 1.5 trillion dollars how much of that do you own how much of this you've been

00:48:58.580 underwriting with government contracts think about that for a second how much do you own and people

00:49:03.620 say well steve you can't be a social i'm not being a socialist we are actually capitalists what we

00:49:07.460 don't want this company to devolve into is wait for it crony capitalism or state capitalism kind

00:49:13.220 of like the chinese model kind of like elon's partners in tesla the chinese communist party

00:49:18.580 the way they roll so we're going to break all that down too we're going to make sure that you have

00:49:22.260 all the facts and all the information so that you can make rational decisions about all this um
