00:00:00.000 Already trying to spin this as an action of self-defense.
00:00:05.760 Having seen the video of myself, I want to tell everybody directly, that is bull****.
00:00:13.160 This was an agent recklessly using power that resulted in somebody dying.
00:00:21.440 To Minnesotans, know that our administration is going to stop at nothing to seek accountability and justice.
00:00:27.260 The State Bureau of Criminal Apprehension are working on the investigation.
00:00:32.560 We have activated the State Emergency Operations Center.
00:00:35.580 State Patrol and Minnesota National Guard leadership is connected with the Minneapolis Police Department,
00:00:40.320 the St. Paul Police Department, Hennepin County Sheriff's Office, the DNR,
00:00:44.120 and Minnesota's Homeland Security and Emergency Management.
00:00:47.300 We have activated dozens of members of the State Patrol's mobile response team.
00:00:52.860 And from here on, I have a very simple message.
00:00:55.360 We do not need any further help from the federal government.
00:01:01.440 To Donald Trump and Kristi Noem, you've done enough.
00:01:05.280 There's nothing more important than Minnesotan safety.
00:01:07.760 I've issued a warning order to prepare the Minnesota National Guard.
00:01:10.980 We have soldiers in training and prepared to be deployed if necessary.
00:01:14.720 I remind you, a warning order is a heads up for folks.
00:01:18.180 And these National Guard troops are our National Guard troops.
00:01:21.780 There are teachers in your community.
00:01:24.300 There are business owners.
00:01:25.600 There are construction professionals.
00:01:27.440 They are Minnesotans.
00:01:29.840 Minnesota will not allow our community to be used as a prop in a national political fight.
00:01:34.120 We will not take the bait.
00:01:35.620 Get the f*** out of here right now!
00:01:41.580 That's what I'm saying.
00:01:42.300 It's a bunch of...
00:01:43.080 They killed my f***ing neighbor!
00:01:45.780 Who the f*** are these Nazis?
00:01:47.680 You guys are losers.
00:01:48.860 You guys are losers.
00:01:50.120 You guys are losers.
00:01:51.420 You're trying to agitate people.
00:01:52.580 You're agitated.
00:01:53.700 Some f***ing agitators over here!
00:01:55.500 You're losers.
00:01:56.080 Let's move to that.
00:01:56.800 It's a fight.
00:01:57.700 Open to America.
00:01:59.660 Get the f*** out of my city!
00:02:01.480 What the f*** is wrong with you?
00:02:05.900 Somebody's died!
00:02:13.640 Go to your f***ing car so we can take a picture of your f***ing plate!
00:02:18.420 Where's your f***ing car, you coward?
00:02:21.080 You couldn't even f***ing stop?
00:02:24.180 I'm not moving.
00:02:25.520 You f***ing walk the block, you're a f***ing coward!
00:02:28.180 Get the f*** out!
00:02:29.580 To ICE?
00:02:32.560 Get the f*** out of Minneapolis.
00:02:34.480 Your stated reason for being in this city is to create some kind of safety and you are doing exactly the opposite.
00:02:40.760 Somebody is dead.
00:02:42.200 That's on you.
00:02:42.980 To the family, I'm so deeply sorry.
00:02:45.000 We're going to be working towards justice as quickly as we possibly can right now.
00:02:49.000 And justice is what we've all got to get.
00:02:50.720 We're going to make sure that in this very difficult moment, we do not take the bait that these ICE agents are trying to create.
00:02:57.720 And that the federal government, to be clear, wants.
00:03:00.140 People are going to want to exercise their First Amendment rights.
00:03:03.300 But please do so safely and lawfully to ensure that we do not have any further tragedy in this city or destruction.
00:03:10.380 We can show them the kind of courage, bravery, love and compassion that makes Minneapolis Minneapolis.
00:03:15.720 Let's unite around hope and love and peace and getting justice.
00:03:21.100 Ambassador, I just think we're in new territory here.
00:03:23.680 The President of the United States is actually not on the side of the allies.
00:03:27.340 The President of the United States is aligning himself with folks like Vladimir Putin.
00:03:30.880 And I say that because territorial integrity, sovereignty, those are things we've got to remind Putin of.
00:03:37.540 President Xi of.
00:03:38.660 Why are they reminding the President of the United States?
00:03:42.220 Well, it's because their foreign policy is governed by grown-ups.
00:03:47.500 It's strategy.
00:03:48.620 They have an appreciation of history and understand what we have built.
00:03:52.020 But all of us have worked so hard together to build over the course of the last 80 years.
00:03:57.260 The President of the United States doesn't understand that.
00:04:00.420 Evidently, Marco Rubio used to understand that.
00:04:02.940 But the Secretary of State doesn't seem to understand that.
00:04:05.540 And I think it's critically important for someone like me.
00:04:09.500 The reason I speak out as vociferously as I do on both sides of the Atlantic on this is because we've got to get Americans to understand that there is so much on the line here.
00:04:19.900 This is the world order as we know it.
00:04:22.500 And again, if he drives a stake through the heart of NATO, the world will be fundamentally different afterwards.
00:04:29.900 And I'm sure as heck I'm not going to let that happen.
00:04:32.160 So I think we all have to fight as hard as we possibly can, starting with American members of Congress.
00:04:40.200 And I want to get them on the record on this.
00:04:42.380 I know there's a lot of movement.
00:04:43.580 There should be a heck of a lot more getting them to take a side.
00:04:47.420 I was thrilled to see what a bunch of a couple of Republican senators did today.
00:04:50.440 But we need to see a lot more of it.
00:04:51.900 First, just want to make clear that the news coming out of Minneapolis is horrific.
00:04:56.580 This is one part of what has been a year full of cruelty.
00:05:04.600 And we know that when ICE agents attack immigrants, they attack every single one of us across this country.
00:05:09.400 And this is a city and will always be a city that stands up for immigrants across the five boroughs.
00:05:14.640 And I have made it clear to everyone within my city government, and that extends to NYPD, that we are going to uphold our sanctuary city policies.
00:05:26.600 We are going to adhere to them.
00:05:28.720 That is why one of the 11 executive orders that we signed was to repeal the previous administration's order to allow for collaboration with ICE on Rikers Island.
00:05:39.120 What we are going to be doing is following the laws that we have set, laws which have kept New Yorkers safe.
00:05:46.340 And we are going to make it clear to each and every person in the city what their rights are.
00:05:50.460 That's why we took the time to make a Know Your Rights video, because it goes back to the earlier question.
00:05:54.940 If you don't know of your rights, then how can you be expected to actually use those rights?
00:05:59.760 So we are going to take every opportunity we have to inform New Yorkers of what they already can do, and also to make it clear to our own city government agencies and departments across the board, including NYPD, that we are not here to assist ICE agents in their work.
00:06:16.060 We are here to follow the laws of New York City.
00:06:18.540 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
00:06:26.220 Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.
00:06:31.420 Here's the time I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
00:06:35.700 The people have had a belly full of it.
00:06:37.600 I know you don't like hearing that.
00:06:39.040 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
00:06:41.720 It's going to happen.
00:06:42.980 And where do people like that go to share the big line?
00:06:46.400 MAGA Media.
00:06:47.300 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:06:53.180 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:06:56.940 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:07:03.320 War Room.
00:07:04.160 Here's your host, Stephen K. Vance.
00:07:12.900 It's Thursday, 8 January in the year of our Lord, 2026.
00:07:17.300 Welcome to The Worm.
00:07:18.900 We're on the road today.
00:07:20.120 Talk to you in a few minutes about where we are.
00:07:22.760 Right there you see is the President of the United States works through hemispheric defense
00:07:26.920 from Latin America all the way up to the Arctic.
00:07:31.660 And of course, I think we took another ship on the high seas today.
00:07:34.200 We're closing in on one to ensure that this oil can't be monetized by our enemies, bad guys running these countries and also the Chinese Communist Party.
00:07:45.300 As I've said time and time again, the war's at home.
00:07:48.820 We've got to win.
00:07:49.320 This war, we've got to win.
00:07:50.460 Other wars, important to win, but not actually must win.
00:07:57.180 Must win is in the United States of America.
00:07:59.840 And right there from Minneapolis.
00:08:02.160 And let's be blunt.
00:08:03.420 Wall's the governor, who's not going to run again, right?
00:08:07.780 We're not going to run again because we have criminal charges brought against him.
00:08:10.740 He's talking about bringing in the National Guard of Minnesota against ICE and against federal officials.
00:08:16.560 You talk about a civil war.
00:08:17.620 You talk about an insurrectionist and that mayor.
00:08:19.420 I put up on Getter yesterday in one of the left-wing sites, picked it up.
00:08:25.140 I said, go on and arrest the mayor.
00:08:26.860 They should have done that yesterday.
00:08:29.400 His throwdown right there, F ICE and instigating more violence against ICE agents.
00:08:36.220 Come on, man.
00:08:37.820 Go arrest that punk.
00:08:40.100 He's the railhead of a lot of the problems and walls.
00:08:44.440 Now, we're on the road today for the next couple of days in Texas.
00:08:48.280 Now, why are we in Texas?
00:08:49.120 You've got an Islamic invasion in the great state of Texas.
00:08:52.900 This is not about religion.
00:08:53.860 It has nothing to do with religion because 80% to 90% of what you see in all these mosques being built,
00:09:01.760 in these schools being built, and all that has nothing to do with a religion.
00:09:04.820 This is not about First Amendment.
00:09:05.920 It's not about your right to practice a religion.
00:09:07.760 Of course you can do that.
00:09:09.400 This is about submission of the United States of America to Islamic wave that has now engulfed Europe.
00:09:17.500 Why?
00:09:17.900 Because the elites in Europe for years and years and years, decades, would not take action.
00:09:24.180 So we're down here in Texas.
00:09:26.320 We're going to have a big event tomorrow night.
00:09:28.180 Glenn Story joins me from the fantastic Patriot Mobile that has our back, a Christian company, I might add.
00:09:34.180 And we've got Gert Wilders coming in from Netherlands who's been a fighter on this topic and warned people about this over decades.
00:09:40.320 And you see what's happening in his country and other countries.
00:09:42.800 And, of course, I'll be speaking.
00:09:44.660 Glenn Story, because of your good offices, we also have another guest I think we're going to talk about this morning.
00:09:49.800 What do we got?
00:09:51.520 Yeah, you know, I do want to say this.
00:09:53.440 You know, we're a small company.
00:09:55.820 And when you embrace God or Scripture tells us that giant things can happen out of a small package.
00:10:04.160 Well, look, you know, I think what we're doing right now really illuminates that.
00:10:08.980 You know, I would just say this.
00:10:11.380 You know, you think about the feeding of the 5,000.
00:10:13.580 A little boy had two fish, five barley loaves, and he trusted to give his only possession over to the Lord.
00:10:25.260 And look what it did.
00:10:26.320 It fed multitudes.
00:10:27.740 And so I look at this right now saying, okay, you know, we are this small company.
00:10:32.920 We've handed our business over.
00:10:34.340 My chairman said, yeah, let's do it five years ago, and giant things have happened.
00:10:39.900 But today is a real good example of what's going to happen.
00:10:43.800 Or tomorrow, we've brought together hundreds, almost 1,000 people, legislators from three or four different states.
00:10:53.340 We brought in Gert Wilders, you know, and this guy named Steve Bannon.
00:10:59.200 And then another gentleman, and I don't really shouldn't say this, but he's Glenn Beck, you know, and this is incredible.
00:11:08.100 He's going to be the keynote speaker.
00:11:09.900 He's going to load this thing up.
00:11:11.540 And, Steve, you usually light it on fire, but, dude, what you light on fire, he's going to really light on it.
00:11:20.040 I'm just the – I'm the opening act for the great Glenn Beck.
00:11:23.120 One of the reasons for this is Glenn Beck has been on this for over a decade.
00:11:28.020 One of the best books about understanding Islam, I think Glenn Beck wrote 12 years ago or something.
00:11:34.040 I remember just reading it when it first came out.
00:11:35.740 Glenn Beck has been on this problem from the very beginning talking about Europe, and I think it's fantastic.
00:11:41.940 He's going to keynote and close it out.
00:11:43.820 I'm sure he's going to get people jacked up.
00:11:45.980 Glenn, just tell me, where do people go to find out more about Patriot Mobile?
00:11:49.200 You've brought in 22 to 25 groups for this event.
00:11:52.180 We could have sold 1,000 tickets.
00:11:54.140 I think we had to cut it off at 700.
00:11:57.300 You've just done a magnificent – what people have been working on and coming together over the Christmas holidays to put this on.
00:12:02.580 And now the great Glenn Beck is going to join us and close it out, be the keynote address.
00:12:07.780 Talk to me about Patriot Mobile.
00:12:09.040 Where do people go find out more about you?
00:12:11.160 And if they want to get on a waiting list for a ticket or do whatever, where do they go today?
00:12:15.560 Hey, I will say this.
00:12:17.280 It is sold out.
00:12:18.320 You know, there is a wait list.
00:12:19.680 Just go to PatriotMobile.com forward slash Save Texas.
00:12:24.720 But, you know, if you received an email, then you're going to get in.
00:12:30.500 And then secondly, I just want to say, look, we have a pre-meeting with 50 legislators leading up to the event.
00:12:38.920 And these guys are from Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, and other states that are coming in just for this.
00:12:47.280 And it's an incredible, incredible event.
00:12:50.600 And, you know, I think we're probably going to do this once a quarter.
00:12:53.240 And, you know, we want to educate others.
00:12:55.340 And I will say this one last thing.
00:12:56.980 I say it every time we talk.
00:12:58.240 I believe in the freedom of religion.
00:12:59.900 I don't care if you're Sikh, Muslim, Hindu, whatever you want to worship, I want you to have the freedom to worship that here in this country.
00:13:07.760 However, if you're going to bring in some law that's contrary to our U.S. Constitution, that's where it really stops.
00:13:15.140 That's where we put our feet down.
00:13:17.380 And you know what?
00:13:18.300 Look, we're going to fight this tooth and nail through the legislative sessions.
00:13:24.260 And, look, this is something we have to stop because we do not want to Europe or America.
00:13:31.380 Not going to.
00:13:32.280 It's not.
00:13:32.780 We're going to stop it.
00:13:33.720 It's going to get stopped.
00:13:34.860 This is not going to happen in the United States.
00:13:36.780 It's happening.
00:13:37.280 You see Mandami running his mouth, the Ugandan Marxist jihadist.
00:13:42.280 And if somebody did the work to check his naturalization papers, as I've recommended because I know this, he would be denaturalized and put on a plane back to Uganda where he should go.
00:13:54.640 You saw him mouthing off in the opening segment.
00:13:57.140 We're going to be a sanctuary city.
00:13:58.540 We're going to do this.
00:13:59.340 We're going to do that.
00:14:00.740 Hey, he had a shot in the Oval Office.
00:14:02.880 President Trump was gracious enough to hear him out.
00:14:07.040 And now you see this punk every day.
00:14:08.980 They're a sanctuary city.
00:14:10.100 Well, guess what?
00:14:10.760 We're the United States of America.
00:14:12.280 And we want all the illegal aliens gone.
00:14:16.340 And we particularly want Mandami's terrorist buddies all gone.
00:14:20.060 Glenn Story, one more time, where do people go to get to Patriot Mobile, sir?
00:14:24.300 PatriotMobile.com.
00:14:26.100 And you'll be a customer of ours.
00:14:28.360 And I'll tell you what.
00:14:29.160 We are an activist company that funds our activism through a simple thing called a cell phone.
00:14:36.460 The service is fabulous.
00:14:38.020 And, you know, when you need to talk with somebody, you're going to talk to a guy like me.
00:14:42.320 And if you've got a service, Steve, I want you to say what it is.
00:14:46.060 But, hey, I'll tell you what.
00:14:47.460 This thing works as good as anywhere you can go.
00:14:49.680 And I'll tell you, fund our, go ahead.
00:14:53.460 Love you, brother.
00:14:56.280 Hang on.
00:14:56.660 I'll hold you through the break.
00:14:57.660 Just hang on.
00:14:58.120 I got American.
00:14:59.320 If you could make one holiday wish, would you wish to be free from your credit card and other debt?
00:15:06.000 Let's see if we can help you with that.
00:15:07.660 If we could give yourself one gift this holiday season, would it be finally to get some relief from your credit card and other debt?
00:15:15.440 I might have a solution.
00:15:17.760 Here's why now is the time to make a move.
00:15:20.040 This time of year, credit card and loan companies close out their books.
00:15:24.360 They clean up past due accounts.
00:15:27.260 They sell a write-off to debt to clear their books.
00:15:30.740 That means if you have credit card debt and unpaid bills, lenders may be more open to negotiating and settling your account before you're in.
00:15:38.740 That means right now, and I mean right now, you may actually have leverage.
00:15:45.080 And Done With Debt knows how to use this to your advantage.
00:15:48.740 They monitor lender trends and understand the year-end pressure on creditors.
00:15:53.300 They use that timing to negotiate hard on your behalf.
00:15:57.740 Now's the time to get out from under crushing debt and interest payments without bankruptcy or taking on new loans.
00:16:05.000 Done With Debt goes to work for you month one.
00:16:09.220 With one clear goal, to reduce your total debt and leave you with more money every month.
00:16:15.160 Get started now, because your leverage may disappear at the end of the year.
00:16:21.600 Chat with a Done With Debt specialist at donewithdebt.com.
00:16:25.500 That's donewithdebt.com, donewithdebt.com.
00:16:29.660 Do it today.
00:16:32.220 Here's your host, Stephen K. Vance.
00:16:36.680 Okay, we're down here.
00:16:38.740 We're actually broadcasting from Kevin Friedman's or the great Kevin Friedman.
00:16:43.160 Kevin's going to join us later in the show.
00:16:44.920 Also, Taze Gill is going to slip in here.
00:16:46.400 Taze is with us.
00:16:47.760 Going to talk about what's going on in Minneapolis.
00:16:49.720 And John Salmon is going to join us in a moment.
00:16:51.240 So just to summarize Glenn's story, tomorrow night in, I think it's in Grapevine, Texas, we're going to have a, we're going to have a gathering, I don't know, five, six, seven hundred folks.
00:17:02.280 And Glenn Beck is now going to join myself and Gert Wilders.
00:17:06.720 Also, I think Stensham's going to be there also.
00:17:10.720 He's going to emcee and also speak.
00:17:12.340 So this thing is packed wall to wall.
00:17:15.060 One more time.
00:17:15.900 Where do they go to Patriot Mobile, Glenn's story?
00:17:19.340 PatriotMobile.com forward slash save Texas.
00:17:22.720 And yeah, you know what?
00:17:24.180 New York City, what's going on up there is just an abomination.
00:17:27.660 You've got this communist run in the city.
00:17:30.020 It's one of the greatest cities in the world.
00:17:31.880 I lived there for 15 years.
00:17:34.060 And we've got to put a wall around that and keep all that nonsense out.
00:17:38.700 And we've got to save Texas.
00:17:40.180 So you know what?
00:17:41.140 If you want to be a part of this Save Texas event, you know, it's going to be an inspiration.
00:17:46.720 It's going to embolden folks.
00:17:48.000 It's going to teach us what we can do.
00:17:49.560 And look, if you didn't make it this time, we're going to have another one.
00:17:54.440 And we look forward to hosting you guys.
00:17:57.900 Okay.
00:17:59.100 And very excited Glenn is going to be a part of it.
00:18:01.400 So once again, 972 Patriot, 972 Patriot, you talk to somebody as the company says, a hillbilly
00:18:08.480 with an East Texas accent, but that's a United States citizen about everything about the
00:18:13.040 company.
00:18:13.400 Go do it today.
00:18:14.460 And like I said, Glenn Beck's going to keynote and close this thing out on Friday night.
00:18:18.720 We couldn't be more excited.
00:18:20.180 Last question, Glenn Story.
00:18:21.720 You lived in New York City for 15 years with that accent.
00:18:24.940 What do they think you from, what do they make you?
00:18:27.160 You thought they thought you were from another planet.
00:18:29.780 No, dude, I fit right in.
00:18:31.460 Everybody loved me because you know what?
00:18:33.280 I'm one of the few that like to talk to a dead dog in the road.
00:18:36.540 And you know what?
00:18:37.540 People like people that like to talk because I think everybody has something interesting
00:18:41.780 about them.
00:18:45.600 Glenn Story.
00:18:46.280 Love you, man.
00:18:46.940 Keep fighting.
00:18:47.640 All right.
00:18:48.260 Yeah.
00:18:48.500 Have a blessed day, guys.
00:18:49.680 The Christian company that supports and has the back of folks with Christian values.
00:18:53.760 Thank you, sir.
00:18:54.240 Appreciate you.
00:18:54.760 Just some logistics.
00:18:57.380 Scott Besson, the secretary of treasurer, is out, I think, for a two-day trip to Minneapolis.
00:19:02.660 Already previously scheduled.
00:19:04.920 I think Jack Bassoba is going to be with him.
00:19:06.760 Our own David Zier and a crew from Real America's Voice is going to be there.
00:19:10.500 He's giving a major speech at the – I think it's the Economic Club of Minneapolis.
00:19:16.000 Talk about all the good things happening with the Trump economy and more to come.
00:19:20.940 And so we're going to stream that live on all of our platforms today.
00:19:24.020 Real America's Voice is going to do it.
00:19:24.980 We're also going to stream it on our Rumble and our Getter channels, all of them,
00:19:29.060 Grace and Mo on top of that.
00:19:30.200 And then later on, we're trying to get Scott Besson maybe for an interview this afternoon,
00:19:34.220 if not tomorrow morning.
00:19:35.500 So we're going to work it all out.
00:19:36.600 He's going to stop by some factories, some folks we know out there.
00:19:40.360 So the secretary of treasurer.
00:19:42.140 John Solomon joins us.
00:19:43.420 John, first off, you've got – you've been doing investigative work in your assessment of
00:19:48.460 this situation yesterday with the ICE officers, sir.
00:19:52.200 Yeah, listen, officer-involved shootings have three key elements to them when they decide
00:19:56.220 whether it's lawful.
00:19:57.120 The first is, did the person who was shot know that they were being stopped by law enforcement?
00:20:02.280 And that issue, we know for sure that's the case.
00:20:04.380 She was trying to block them with the car.
00:20:06.120 They had their lights on.
00:20:07.180 They identified themselves as ICE when they told her to get out of the car.
00:20:11.140 Secondly, they always look at what was she told to do.
00:20:15.680 Was she give a lawful instruction?
00:20:17.040 The instruction was to get out of the car.
00:20:19.100 She chose not to and drove forward.
00:20:21.440 The third thing is, when an officer fires her gun, were they in danger?
00:20:26.360 That's the third element.
00:20:27.680 There is a singular piece of evidence that's going to be essential to this review.
00:20:31.840 And all the folks that I talked to in the last 24 hours who've investigated officer-involved
00:20:36.500 shootings for decades of experience say that the most important piece of evidence is the
00:20:41.280 bullet hole from the first shot fired by the ICE officer is directly in the front windshield.
00:20:47.240 Why does that mean?
00:20:48.200 What does that mean?
00:20:48.720 Why is that significant?
00:20:49.980 It means the officer had to be in front of the car as it was peeling away and he was in
00:20:55.380 danger.
00:20:55.720 And I think that when those three elements are reviewed, all of the politics are stripped
00:20:59.520 away and you have a person that was driving at an ICE agent after being lawfully instructed
00:21:05.500 to stop and get out of the car, that's going to make this, according to all the experts I
00:21:09.720 talked to, a legitimate, a tragic, but legitimately legal shooting.
00:21:14.740 John, you've also been talking to authorities and people in the administration about this
00:21:23.260 mess we have where you're trying to have ICE get into, begin the mass deportations, right?
00:21:30.500 The criminal element's still there, but also the mass deportations.
00:21:34.460 They're interfering with Federalized National Guard.
00:21:37.460 They're interfering with ICE officers.
00:21:40.100 You saw Mandami right there say, we're Sanctuary City.
00:21:42.960 We're going to protect our Sanctuary City laws and we'll put ICE guys in Rikers if we
00:21:47.140 have to.
00:21:47.960 You saw the mayor and I think he should, I think they are rolling on the mayor because
00:21:51.020 he's instigating violence.
00:21:52.940 Talk to me about institutionally what's happening, particularly about these groups.
00:21:57.960 You can tell they've barricaded streets now and hopefully zero after the speech will get
00:22:02.420 down to the barricading streets right now in Minneapolis.
00:22:04.840 And a lot of it has the writing on, on the barricades is all in other languages.
00:22:11.420 What do you got for us there?
00:22:13.780 Just talked a little bit ago to the FBI, got a statement directly from Kash Patel, the
00:22:17.940 FBI director.
00:22:18.680 He said and confirmed this morning that the organizers and funders of the anti-ICE protests
00:22:24.760 in Minneapolis are under criminal investigation for impeding lawful law enforcement activities
00:22:31.540 and endangering public safety.
00:22:33.860 When you put your car in front of a caravan of law enforcement that are lawfully moving
00:22:38.860 through the street, you're endangering public safety.
00:22:40.840 When you don't follow the instructions of law officers and you lurch your car towards
00:22:46.160 an agent who's doing his job, you're impeding public safety and you're endangering it.
00:22:51.620 This is the most strong statement that anyone in the administration has given that not only
00:22:56.220 are the people, the ICE is rounding up doing unlawful activities, but these left-wing anarchist
00:23:02.300 protesters are also potentially going to face criminal sanctions soon.
00:23:07.120 A very strong statement just moved to Justice News a little while ago.
00:23:11.560 And while that's going on, there's a larger investigation that the FBI and the Homeland Security
00:23:16.680 Investigations Unit has begun.
00:23:18.720 And that's into something that I've been tracking for about a year and a half now.
00:23:21.920 Is this fraud that was going on in Minneapolis and the food program and the autism child support
00:23:29.180 program and the other welfare benefit programs, which was systemic and willfully ignored by
00:23:35.160 the Waltz administration and the Democrats of Minnesota, did it have a foreign component?
00:23:40.360 Meaning, was this money being secreted out of the United States?
00:23:43.020 And yesterday, the Transportation Security Administration acknowledged for the first time on the record,
00:23:48.300 they've been aware of these cash transfers since about 2018, ironically, around the same time
00:23:56.200 that Tim Waltz started as governor in that state.
00:23:58.520 What are these cash transfers?
00:24:00.220 There are Somali couriers who come to the airport almost daily with $1,600,000 in cash and a luggage.
00:24:08.420 That sounds a little suspicious, right?
00:24:09.720 It was going on daily, and they were moving about $350 million a year in cash in their luggage
00:24:17.580 out of Minneapolis Airport and then traditionally or predominantly overseas.
00:24:23.420 One of the routes that TSA saw the money go, it would go from Minneapolis to Europe, Europe to Dubai,
00:24:31.220 often through Amsterdam.
00:24:33.020 It was flagged for years.
00:24:35.860 TSA was flagging these payments for years.
00:24:37.940 They grew. They grew from $20, $30 million a year to $350 million a year the last two years, 2024 and 2025.
00:24:46.900 It was literally a foreign ATM taking cash out of the United States to foreign destinations,
00:24:53.100 and we don't know the reason why.
00:24:54.440 But that is now under investigation by the FBI and HSI.
00:24:58.280 And people say, well, is this normal?
00:25:00.020 I mean, maybe this goes on at every airport.
00:25:01.740 We got comparative statistics yesterday.
00:25:03.580 The amount of money that these Somali couriers took out of the Minneapolis Airport with the TSA flagging it daily
00:25:10.380 was 99 times larger than all the cash that was declared in luggage going out of New York's JFK International Airport,
00:25:18.420 one of the busiest international airports in America.
00:25:20.900 99 times more than what flies out of Dallas.
00:25:24.000 90% more than what was flown out of Seattle, which is the most common airport for people to go to Asia from.
00:25:34.060 This was an abnormally high amount of cash being stuffed in the luggage, being detected every day by the TSA.
00:25:40.920 Because, by the way, the couriers told, they declared the money.
00:25:43.740 They literally would say, yeah, we got a million bucks in our suitcase, which you have to do to get it through the airport.
00:25:47.540 And nobody in the Biden administration thought it was unusual that a million bucks of cash was moving in luggage out of the country,
00:25:54.340 out of Minneapolis every day, way more than any other airport in America at the time.
00:25:59.060 This is, I think, the second end of this welfare scam, which is where was this money going after it was defrauded?
00:26:06.100 And I think we're beginning to get some signs of what's going on here.
00:26:12.120 This is almost jaw-dropping.
00:26:13.640 You're saying for the four years of Biden, when you hear these kind of numbers every day,
00:26:17.540 are cash or Kristi Noem or somebody now doing an investigation for why this was not reported broadly and why this was not shut down?
00:26:27.760 Yeah.
00:26:28.060 The president, in fact, just reposted my story and said, arrest them all,
00:26:31.800 meaning all the people that were moving the cash out of the country if it was defrauded cash.
00:26:36.440 That's a big moment.
00:26:38.160 Yeah.
00:26:38.420 There's been an investigation going on for three or four weeks since this thing.
00:26:42.780 We first wrote about the welfare scandal in August of 2024, Steve, right when Waltz was named,
00:26:48.680 because it was important that the man who wanted to be vice president be exposed for the fact that he presided over it.
00:26:54.320 In February of this past year, the Justice Department approached us and he was like,
00:26:58.140 hey, where'd you get this evidence?
00:26:59.140 The answer is, it's all in the public documents.
00:27:00.920 Look, it's in our story.
00:27:02.160 That's when prosecutors really ramped up their activities in Minneapolis.
00:27:05.260 They discovered this cash flow in the airports about six or eight weeks ago when some whistleblowers came forward within the TSA and people who had retired from the TSA.
00:27:14.740 It's been under investigation for three or four weeks now.
00:27:17.700 It's a very unusual and large amount of money, unlike anything we've seen anywhere else in the country.
00:27:22.940 And I think it's become part of the larger picture.
00:27:25.380 But it is under significant and large investigation.
00:27:29.660 There's hundreds of agents now looking at both who defrauded it, where did they come from, and where did they send their money?
00:27:36.160 And I think those are the three questions that will give us a bigger sense of just what this scandal is all about.
00:27:40.840 John, I know you've got to bounce.
00:27:44.700 We've got Senator Rand Paul, but if you can just hold for a second through the break.
00:27:48.000 Sure.
00:27:48.200 I just got another question to ask you because it shouldn't be lost on anybody that Tim Walls, I know this is unbelievable, but Tim Walls was actually a nominee as Vice President of the United States.
00:27:59.280 And on the morning of the election, the polling and the odds were that Tim Walls was going to be the Vice President of the United States.
00:28:07.280 How this never came up during at least a cursory vetting of Tim Walls is very deep, statish.
00:28:16.780 Short commercial break.
00:28:17.760 We have Senator Rand Paul is going to join us.
00:28:19.240 John Solomon is going to wrap up.
00:28:21.140 We're packed today.
00:28:22.180 Back in a moment.

00:30:04.800 Bannon.
00:30:05.140 John Solomon, I know you've got to go.
00:30:09.620 We've got Senator Paul on deck.
00:30:11.000 Just quickly.
00:30:11.660 But when Walls was named, how did DHS or how did the Biden administration, $325 million came through in that year?
00:30:18.740 And here's my point.
00:30:19.620 He said the other day, I'm not running again for the third term, stepped away.
00:30:23.020 The reason is he understands and the team around him understands that they're going to come on criminal charges.
00:30:28.840 So theoretically, this guy could have been the vice president of the United States, and we've been in a major firestorm right now about the guy going to get removed from office.
00:30:37.720 How did this not come up in August of 2024 that he had been overseeing a state where you had hundreds of millions of dollars going through the airport, sir?
00:30:47.620 How did DHS not inform anybody?
00:30:49.280 And billions being stolen.
00:30:51.660 Listen, the reason is we don't have enough Senator Rand Pauls in Congress.
00:30:55.020 It's a club, and Tim Walts used to belong to that club.
00:30:57.460 And so when we did our original stories in August, many of the Republicans just went, oh, that's Tim Walts.
00:31:03.540 No problem.
00:31:04.100 We're going to let that go.
00:31:04.980 The media, which has been aligned with the deep state, suffocate the story.
00:31:09.100 And so we see it.
00:31:10.000 The prosecutors saw it.
00:31:11.620 But most of the establishment leaves it there.
00:31:13.600 We need more Senator Rand Pauls.
00:31:14.960 Listen, every day for the last 20 years, he's been exposing the fraud, the waste in government, and the abuse of government.
00:31:22.640 The stuff he put out yesterday is the stuff every Republican should be talking about.
00:31:26.860 The tools that we made for terrorists and for criminals were turned against innocent Americans simply because the Democratic regime disagreed with their opinions.
00:31:36.920 That's not America.
00:31:37.740 Senator Rand Paul calls it out every day.
00:31:39.360 We need more James Comers, Rand Pauls, Jim Jordans calling this stuff out.
00:31:43.860 The club just sits there and yawns at it, and that's how we end up with a $37 trillion, $38 trillion debt.
00:31:52.640 John Solomon, where do people go for your content, sir?
00:31:56.080 Justthenews.com and J. Solomon reports on all social media.
00:32:01.440 Thank you, sir.
00:32:02.180 Appreciate you.
00:32:03.520 Thank you.
00:32:04.080 Senator Paul, now it's been announced we have a $1.5 trillion defense budget.
00:32:10.000 You've been one of the biggest folks in there saying, hey, we've got to get the waste fraud and abuse.
00:32:14.700 Things might be out of control.
00:32:16.000 What are your thoughts about that?
00:32:19.040 You know, I think waste, you know, is part of it, but really it has to be overall budgets of everything.
00:32:26.100 I mean, if you cut out the waste and abuse in government, I think it's not enough.
00:32:30.440 I mean, what Doge found was enormous, and we should codify that, put it into the law, and make sure it doesn't happen again, particularly the foreign aid.
00:32:38.400 But you really have to address just overall spending.
00:32:41.440 If you take military spending off the table, though, and, you know, the president yesterday says we should increase it from $1 trillion to $1.5 trillion.
00:32:48.960 And if you do that, you'll never balance your budget, but you also will perhaps precipitate a crisis here where the dollar could suddenly lose its value and our debt suddenly becomes something no one wants to touch.
00:33:02.280 So we have now a president's focus on hemispheric defense from Greenland to the Gulf of America, the Arctic to Panama Canal, Latin America.
00:33:14.080 You've got these moves.
00:33:14.920 I'll talk to you about that in a second.
00:33:16.720 But at home, things seem more and more spinning out of control.
00:33:20.360 We did a cold open.
00:33:21.780 Mandami says, hey, we're a sanctuary city.
00:33:23.880 We're not going to allow ice in.
00:33:25.060 You've got Walls saying he's calling out the National Guard against ICE and federal officials.
00:33:31.580 And the mayor yesterday during this event came out and said, F ICE.
00:33:36.300 I don't want them in the city.
00:33:37.480 We're going to fight them.
00:33:38.780 This internal problem, I mean, we basically have this insurrection by these radical Democrats in the city is worse.
00:33:46.860 It's getting to the level of pre-Civil War America back in the 1850s.
00:33:52.600 What say you, sir?
00:33:53.380 I mean, I talked to the president yesterday about this.
00:33:57.120 The appropriation bills that are coming before us next week will still have refugee money and billions of dollars to give to refugees.
00:34:04.580 Precisely the money that the Somalis were stealing in Minnesota is being renewed.
00:34:09.340 Why?
00:34:10.080 Because many of the so-called allies of the president, you know, they pretend as if they're the president's best friends.
00:34:17.400 They're on the appropriations committees.
00:34:19.400 They are quietly putting back in the refugee money.
00:34:22.060 I think it should be zeroed out.
00:34:24.260 In fact, I'm going to introduce both an amendment and a freestanding bill that says you can't get welfare or any welfare programs if you're not a citizen.
00:34:32.160 It's supposed to be that way anyway.
00:34:34.160 If you immigrate here legally, you're not supposed to be eligible for five years.
00:34:38.500 That's abused.
00:34:39.320 But then all of these people are brought in.
00:34:41.700 They're not called immigrants.
00:34:43.140 They're called special visas and refugees.
00:34:45.520 But to the tune of hundreds of thousands of people.
00:34:48.920 And within years, their families come.
00:34:50.660 And we're talking about millions of people.
00:34:53.320 And then not only are they just on traditional welfare without the fraud, they're also fraudulently sucking up billions of dollars, too.
00:35:01.200 But there is a battle and someone needs to watch Congress and point out, you know, I get flack sometimes for disagreeing with the president.
00:35:09.120 We do have honest disagreements.
00:35:10.920 But on this, this is something where I'm going all in and have always gone all in on no welfare for illegal or legal immigrants.
00:35:18.920 And yet the Republican establishment is quietly backstabbing the president on this and continuing to fund these refugee programs.
00:35:29.560 But this is the issue on so much.
00:35:31.280 This is the point on so many issues.
00:35:33.160 They sit there and tell the president they're his ally and they can't stop the filibuster.
00:35:38.240 You know, you can't get anything passed.
00:35:40.160 But they're his ally.
00:35:41.460 But you look through that budget and the appropriations.
00:35:43.840 There's item after item after item that the president is not just against.
00:35:49.480 He's vocally against these and they still get in there.
00:35:52.280 How does that work, sir?
00:35:54.880 Well, it's sort of it's in some ways it's a whole fake process.
00:36:00.680 There's a game as if people in the public are presented as if there is some sort of conservative opposition to big government.
00:36:08.220 But there really isn't.
00:36:09.940 And the reason is this.
00:36:11.000 When you come to Congress, when you're elected to the center of the House, they choose which one of the new people get to be put on the spending committees, the appropriations committees.
00:36:20.400 You're not put on these committees unless you already have a proclivity to spend money.
00:36:25.700 If you are a fiscal hawk, if you think that you're an ideological conservative and believe in smaller government and think spending should be allowed, you never get on.
00:36:35.300 So it's a self-selecting process in both parties.
00:36:38.740 Now, there really are no Democrats that would reduce any money.
00:36:41.440 They don't care.
00:36:42.500 Military, non-military, therefore more spending on everything.
00:36:45.380 But on our side, there are true believers like myself.
00:36:48.420 It's limited government.
00:36:49.740 We're never allowed near an appropriation committee because they don't want any no votes.
00:36:53.680 And then when they pass, like, for example, the money that passed for the refugees passed out a committee.
00:36:59.400 I think it was about a month ago, maybe two months ago.
00:37:01.700 The vote was every Republican other than one voted for it, and all of the Democrats voted for it.
00:37:08.360 So they have these appropriations.
00:37:09.820 Really, one party's not better than the other.
00:37:12.240 And the overall amount, discounting that some of it was for refugees, just the overall spending amount, was equal to the Biden level from the year before.
00:37:20.620 So they say they're doing a great job because they didn't raise spending.
00:37:23.760 It's like, well, yeah, but the spending level from last year gave us a $2 trillion deficit.
00:37:28.300 If you spend the same amount this year, you're going to have about a $2 trillion deficit.
00:37:33.320 But this is what we're up against.
00:37:37.940 Your father was the pathfinder here, and then you've been fantastic about it.
00:37:42.580 Don't people on Capitol Hill, can't they do the math?
00:37:45.020 I mean, we're hurtling towards a financial crisis.
00:37:47.260 That's consistent, and 82 percent of the American people – it was a poll out yesterday up on Citizens Free Press.
00:37:54.080 82 percent of the people in the country unite around one thing.
00:37:58.720 They think we're heading to a physical crisis because of the debt and the deficits.
00:38:04.440 Is the donor class and the lobbyist that powerful that they can convince the United States Senate to look the other way about what mathematically is going to happen, sir?
00:38:17.260 I think there's very little courage or individual thinking by members of Congress.
00:38:22.160 It's a herd mentality.
00:38:24.400 And I think for many of them, the difficult decisions will only come in a crisis.
00:38:29.920 And so most of the problems we face could be fixed, and they can be fixed gradually.
00:38:33.880 So we're short on money on Social Security.
00:38:36.480 We're short on money on Medicare.
00:38:38.060 There are gradual ways that would not be too abrupt that you could gradually fix these programs.
00:38:43.180 For example, and I've said this at my own peril, but both Social Security and Medicare, the age of eligibility, has to go up.
00:38:50.440 We're living longer.
00:38:51.560 But you don't have to immediately jump it up five years, but you probably have to go up a month or two every year for the next 10 years or so.
00:38:58.560 We already did it once back in 83, and people say, we don't want to do that.
00:39:02.580 Tell Rand Paul to keep his hands off my Social Security.
00:39:04.960 Well, that's fine.
00:39:06.700 If you don't want me to fix it, we'll watch it collapse.
00:39:10.380 But the day it collapses is only about four or five years out now.
00:39:14.440 And when it collapses, it'll be a day where the poor person who lives on $700 a month Social Security gets $500.
00:39:21.820 They won't have food, and they won't have heat, and they won't have electricity.
00:39:26.320 And that's a terrible thing to wait to that precipitous time to try to fix it.
00:39:30.300 And then it takes a draconian fix.
00:39:32.080 Most of these entitlement programs that are fixed gradually could be done gradually.
00:39:37.200 We also need to encourage the ability of people to save outside of the government system because I think there's an inevitability that the government is not very wise with your money, and they never will be.
00:39:51.580 Senator, you've also been the guardian of two issues, J6 and Fauci.
00:39:55.580 First off, our audience, as you know, we were kind of the tip of the spear.
00:39:58.280 We were banned on platforms globally, on all the big platforms, because of my attacks on Fauci.
00:40:04.280 Can you give us an update?
00:40:05.100 You've been the one guy, Ken Leaded.
00:40:06.540 Are we finally going to bring Fauci to justice, sir?
00:40:11.460 So we've tried for quite some time.
00:40:13.760 Under the Biden administration, we could get no records, but there was enough evidence just from public testimony that he had lied to Congress, which is a felony.
00:40:21.400 If he had been a Trump supporter or, as you know, anybody related to Trump, lying to Congress, they did put people in jail.
00:40:28.540 Or contempt of court for not testifying, you know personally about.
00:40:32.780 But the thing is, is that we sent that referral twice to Merrick Garland, and it was ignored.
00:40:38.700 We get to the Trump administration, and they have been great.
00:40:41.340 We've worked very closely with Robert Kennedy, and he's, I think, doing a wonderful job on a lot of fronts.
00:40:46.680 But also in this, we got records.
00:40:48.700 But it took six months, because there were minders and protectors around him trying to keep him from doing his job for six months.
00:40:55.840 They finally got rid of those people, and a week later, we got a flood of information.
00:41:00.120 We've made it through a good chunk of the information, looking at Anthony Fauci's culpability and others.
00:41:05.460 The main thing that we found are emails back and forth where he tells people to read this and destroy it.
00:41:11.580 That's illegal, and it's a destruction of federal records, and it's evading federal records.
00:41:17.100 There's also some evidence of him using other devices other than government devices to talk about government business, also against the law.
00:41:24.460 So we've rewritten the referral to the Trump DOJ.
00:41:27.360 Anthony Fauci has been referred to the Trump DOJ for destruction of records, unlawful use of private sources for records, and still for lying to Congress about gain-of-function research.
00:41:39.280 But we haven't had any action.
00:41:41.300 And so, you know, I have a bunch of these paid influencers that attack me every day on Twitter, and their big attack line now is,
00:41:48.760 how come you didn't arrest Fauci?
00:41:50.340 And it's like, you moron, I'm not a prosecutor.
00:41:53.420 I have no ability to arrest anybody.
00:41:55.220 I can point attention to it.
00:41:56.720 I can vote on the issues, and I can ask the prosecutors at DOJ to arrest him, but they haven't done so.
00:42:03.760 There's another gentleman over there that was probably equally, if not worse, but not so high-profile, David Morens.
00:42:11.360 He's the guy that bragged to everybody on email about how he destroyed records, how you can avoid FOIA.
00:42:17.200 And one of his favorite things to do is misspell the names of people that were being FOIA'd.
00:42:21.760 One of them was Christian Anderson, who got a $9 million grant from Fauci for flipping his testimony from,
00:42:28.600 I think it came from the lab.
00:42:30.820 He flipped over and said, oh, it's crazy, never could have come from the lab.
00:42:34.140 The way they spelled Christian Anderson's name is they put dollar signs for the S's, which I think is ironic.
00:42:40.020 But they were doing it to try to avoid FOIA requests.
00:42:43.120 He, without question, was breaking the law, intentionally so, and should be prosecuted.
00:42:49.300 We've referred to him as well.
00:42:51.120 Now, the complicating thing with Fauci, of course, is that he's received a pardon.
00:42:55.480 But my advice to the DOJ has been this.
00:42:58.400 I've said it's a perfect way to challenge the pardon.
00:43:01.520 Did Biden actually consciously and purposely and individually pardon Fauci, or did an auto pen do it?
00:43:10.780 Is it valid?
00:43:11.940 The only way to do it is to accuse him of a crime.
00:43:14.060 Accus him of a crime, go to court, and fight it out.
00:43:17.200 Now, I can't guarantee you win.
00:43:19.120 They well may lose.
00:43:21.300 But I think it's a very narrow case of what he's done wrong.
00:43:24.660 I would take him to court, indict him, and try him.
00:43:28.460 But I would also indict David Morens.
00:43:30.280 I think David Morens has things to tell about Fauci that he might be inclined to tell were he under indictment himself.
00:43:40.020 Senator, can we hold you for a minute or two through our commercial break?
00:43:43.460 I just got another question on J6.
00:43:45.420 If not, we'll let you go now.
00:43:47.020 You tell us.
00:43:47.740 Can we hold you?
00:43:49.000 I think we can do a couple minutes more.
00:43:52.140 Okay, fine.
00:43:53.820 Senator Paul on the other side.
00:43:55.020 We rejoice when there's no more.

00:45:30.640 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:45:35.480 Senator Paul, I know you've got to bounce.
00:45:38.120 Thanks for hanging for a minute.
00:45:39.300 Just J6, can you get us up to date on anything you're working on there, sir?
00:45:43.140 Yeah, we've been investigating this program called Quiet Skies.
00:45:46.760 And Quiet Skies caught up Tulsi Gabbard.
00:45:49.880 It's like a terrorist watch list.
00:45:51.940 You're scrutinized, strip searched, put in rooms, denied travel.
00:45:57.080 They investigate your whereabouts.
00:45:59.220 They track you around the country.
00:46:01.420 What the Biden administration did with January 6th, folks, is they put them on these lists.
00:46:06.140 So they got extra scrutiny at the airports and harassed everywhere.
00:46:09.740 But one of the women they put on this list was named Christine Crowder.
00:46:12.780 Her husband was an air marshal, and that's how he discovered she was on the list.
00:46:17.560 She's a Catholic schoolteacher in Texas.
00:46:20.700 She has never committed any crime.
00:46:23.360 She is not part of an extremist group.
00:46:25.420 She didn't plot against the government.
00:46:27.300 And interestingly, she came to hear the president on January 6th at the White House,
00:46:30.900 but actually was never at the Capitol.
00:46:33.220 They knew this by pinging her phone.
00:46:35.800 Her geolocation showed she was never at the Capitol,
00:46:38.120 and yet they persisted to harass this woman for two years, put her on this list,
00:46:43.040 this Quiet Skies list, sent spies to her house, spied on her activities at her house,
00:46:48.860 spied on her conversations, and they did this for two years.
00:46:53.800 And it only came to light because her husband became a whistleblower.
00:46:57.820 He's an air marshal and had been an air marshal for 30 years.
00:47:00.740 He was trusted with, really, all of the important confidential information.
00:47:07.480 So he was completely trustworthy, but they were flying.
00:47:10.240 He would be on a plane with his wife,
00:47:12.640 and they would have another air marshal tracking their own air marshal and his wife.
00:47:17.200 It was completely ridiculous.
00:47:19.400 It all started also the way really a lot of bad, nosy government starts.
00:47:24.740 Some neighbor of hers or a former friend didn't like her and reported her
00:47:28.860 and said, oh, here's a picture of her.
00:47:31.040 Well, it turns out when they finally bothered to do the video identification
00:47:35.080 or the facial comparison, it wasn't her.
00:47:38.040 She also could prove she had other pictures from her trip there.
00:47:41.000 She was in different clothing than this woman and had clothes on.
00:47:44.280 But really to spy on somebody because somebody who a neighbor doesn't like them
00:47:49.260 turns them into government is really grotesque.
00:47:52.960 And the reason we point this out is we want it never to happen again.
00:47:56.020 I know another young gentleman who wasn't really part of the crowd,
00:48:00.760 but he worked nearby, walked over to the Capitol.
00:48:03.540 He said it was exciting.
00:48:04.440 There's people everywhere.
00:48:05.620 When he got to the Capitol, the doors were wide open,
00:48:09.380 and he walked up the steps, and they have the video of him in the Capitol.
00:48:14.660 There are four policemen leaning up against a table with their arms crossed.
00:48:19.380 They say nothing to him.
00:48:20.680 They don't yell at him.
00:48:21.680 They don't say he's trespassing.
00:48:23.360 They don't say it's against the law.
00:48:24.520 They say nothing to him.
00:48:25.760 He walks around, says nothing to no one, looks around, and walks out.
00:48:30.200 He's in the Capitol a minute and 15 seconds.
00:48:32.340 They went after him for months and months based on his shoes and combed through social media.
00:48:39.900 They finally arrested this dangerous person, threw him to the ground in an airport,
00:48:44.560 handcuffed him, and put him in jail.
00:48:46.320 This can never happen again.
00:48:49.100 The way they track these people, we have another investigation going on.
00:48:52.380 George Washington University, among other universities, was commissioned by the federal government
00:48:58.060 and given money, like NGO money.
00:49:00.960 And then this money was used to just do a dragnet over our entire population,
00:49:07.180 all the activities of everyone, looking for January 6 people.
00:49:10.860 And it's a real tragedy that an American university, which should be based on openness and intellectual thought
00:49:18.500 and difference of opinion, would become basically the accomplice to a government run amok on abusive power.
00:49:27.340 Senator Paul, here's what boggles the audience's mind.
00:49:32.460 We had Solomon on beforehand and talked about $700 million in cash money coming through TSA in the Minneapolis airport.
00:49:40.860 And they monitored it, but they never reported to anybody.
00:49:43.380 Walls was nominated for vice president of the United States in August.
00:49:46.440 In a year, they did $350 million through the Minneapolis airport.
00:49:52.180 How can we have a government that's going after average citizens for these little nitpicks,
00:49:56.760 and here you have a billion dollars flowing in bags that they actually check in and identify,
00:50:02.540 and nobody even brings it up when they do a checking for a guy that's nominated for vice president of the United States.
00:50:07.340 I think people sit there and go, this thing's got to be so rigged, sir.
00:50:12.120 Can you imagine if this much fraud is happening in a small state of Minnesota,
00:50:16.520 what must be happening in California and New York?
00:50:19.400 So I've authored new legislation that I'm going to be introducing soon for an overall audit of all of the welfare programs in all the states.
00:50:29.120 A lot of these programs are part state and part federal, like Medicaid, food stamps.
00:50:34.820 The federal government supplies the majority of the money, but the states supply some.
00:50:38.700 And there needs to be investigative audits of all of this.
00:50:43.200 And I don't know how that could have happened in Minnesota.
00:50:45.860 I think they had to know.
00:50:46.840 The other legislation I'm supporting is from another senator,
00:50:51.560 and that is to make it explicit that if you defraud the government,
00:50:55.840 that it's an explicit reason that you can be deported.
00:50:59.760 So, you know, if we catch thousands of Somalis doing this,
00:51:04.160 I don't really care to pay for their food and lodging in a prison here.
00:51:07.800 I think they should be sent back.
00:51:09.680 Well, I think in the war, we think they all ought to be sent back.
00:51:14.900 Senator Paul, thank you for staying into the bonus time.
00:51:17.460 Where do people get you on social media, sir, to combat these influencers that are attacking you, sir?
00:51:24.120 I'm all over Twitter and Randfall.com.
00:51:28.940 We have both official, unofficial.
00:51:31.020 We're everywhere.
00:51:31.860 People want to look.
00:51:32.520 Senator, thank you.
00:51:36.180 And make sure anybody you think ought to come on the war, my audience ought to meet.
00:51:39.880 We already got a couple of recommendations for you.
00:51:41.600 Make sure you let us know.
00:51:42.360 I appreciate you.
00:51:43.700 Thank you.
00:51:44.220 Okay, we're going to pivot.
00:51:48.200 We're going to go back to Minneapolis, and we've got Oscar Blue Ramirez is going to join us in the next hour.
00:51:54.060 We're going to talk about a massive.
00:51:56.060 President Trump yesterday got us out of 66 different international organizations, including, remember the Migrant Compact?
00:52:04.740 What kind of drives all this from the United Nations?
00:52:06.640 And every day we'd have Oscar Ramirez down in the Darien Gap, and he would say, end every show, like President Trump puts on the end of his true socials.
00:52:17.480 Please, attention to this matter.
00:52:20.360 Oscar Blue Ramirez would tell us, hey, you've got to get out of the Migrant Compact.

00:52:27.620 Bombshell.
00:52:28.500 President Trump yesterday signed this executive order to get us out of all these things, including that.

00:52:52.240 Besson's giving an address at 1 p.m. Eastern Standard Time today.
00:52:57.080 We're going to cover that and stream it.

00:53:16.000 The ultimate guy.
