00:00:00.000 that nobody's going to rain on my parade and these numbers are what they are and 50k i made this hat

00:00:07.660 two months ago and the reason i made it is for exactly a day like today all these naysayers

00:00:13.920 steeped in politics continue to be negative that's okay because 50k says you've all been wrong

00:00:21.200 you keep from going in the water even though it's very hot outside i say all the investment gurus

00:00:27.520 out there jump in the markets in the u.s because global gdp is going to take a big ramp up and the

00:00:34.780 u.s is leading the way i'm going to put the language of the bill up on the screen chairman

00:00:40.620 i have another question on that here's a political joke and i need to give my answer on that we'll

00:00:46.220 let the we'll let the attorney general respond and then the gentleman can move to the next question

00:00:49.540 within 40 minutes you asked me a question within 40 minutes wexner's name was added back within 40

00:00:57.160 minutes of me catching you red-handed red here there was one redaction where he's listed as a

00:01:04.180 co-conspirator and we invited you in we and this guy has trump derangement syndrome he needs to get

00:01:10.960 you're a failed politician i want you to watch the matter chairman please restore his time and remind

00:01:16.800 the witness himself you and the president nominated eric siebert a 15-year career prosecutor to be your

00:01:23.060 u.s attorney for the eastern district of virginia but after five months of investigating letitia james

00:01:30.520 and james comey he found no evidence to justify criminal charges so you forced him out you replaced

00:01:37.620 him with lindsey halligan trump's personal lawyer from the mar-a-lago documents case who had zero

00:01:43.440 prosecutorial experience and no qualifications and then you were humiliated when a federal judge

00:01:48.980 found that this corrupt appointment was blatantly unlawful and threw out halligan's indictments

00:01:54.440 entirely and grand juries of american citizens have repeatedly rejected your vendettas and baseless

00:02:00.640 indictments brought by the hacks left at doj now with two different grand juries in virginia voting down

00:02:05.960 indictments against letitia james in a single week and just yesterday another grand jury shut down your

00:02:12.780 vendetta factory by rejecting indictments against the six members of congress who had spoken out to

00:02:18.880 remind all service members that they have a duty to refuse illegal orders you tried to get a grand jury

00:02:25.540 to indict six members of congress who are veterans of our armed forces on charges of seditious conspiracy

00:02:31.380 simply for exercising their first amendment rights i hope you will keep the wisdom and the constitutional

00:02:38.120 patriotism of those grand jurors and not try it again by doubling down on that humiliation

00:02:43.660 as your best lawyers are sacked for having participated in the january 6 case or just flee

00:02:49.660 for the exits you can let her filibuster all day long but not on our watch we claim not on our time

00:02:55.080 no way and i told you about that attorney general before you started don't tell me oh i did tell you

00:03:00.700 because we saw what you did in the senate law you're not even a lawyer maybe we'll be in order i mean i

00:03:05.420 should get back at least 45 seconds we will give you a few more seconds i said that already 45 seconds

00:03:10.160 okay non-farm payrolls for january coming in twice expectations had 130 000 130k that would be the

00:03:20.060 juiciest going back to april of last year when it was 158 now if we look at a couple of months worth

00:03:27.680 revision they came in at minus 17 000 now let's look for average hourly earnings month over month

00:03:34.920 up four tenths that's one tenth higher than both looking back and looking forward four tenths would

00:03:41.420 equal october last year you are all the way back to the summer of 24 to find a higher month over month

00:03:48.900 earnings number let's go year over year 3.7 exactly as expected one tenth light to 3.8 in the rear view

00:03:56.720 mirror so how does that stack up 3.7 would be the lightest since it was actually 3.6 thanksgiving of

00:04:03.720 last year now let's look at hours work shall we 34.3 that increase that's a good thing that's up a

00:04:11.600 tenth from both to what we were expecting and our last look 34.3 would equal november to find a higher

00:04:18.940 one year all the way back to march of 24 now the unemployment rate may be the most important number

00:04:25.320 more of all and it moves down one tenth 4.3 percent all the naysayers out there they're gonna like this

00:04:33.720 set of data points 4.3 would be equal to where we were in august of last year to find a lower number

00:04:40.640 you're looking at june of last year labor force participation moved up as well more good news

00:04:47.480 62.5 that would be the best since it was 62.6 in april of last year and drumroll please the final

00:04:56.800 number i'm going to give you is u6 the underemployment rate and it comes in at eight percent eight percent

00:05:05.020 last look was eight point four eight percent would be the best going all the way back to july when it

00:05:11.360 was seven point nine given that donald trump accused them of quote seditious behavior punishable

00:05:16.380 by death this case was an attempt to turn the justice system into a tool for donald trump's

00:05:21.580 vendettas but a grand jury stood in the way of all that new york times puts it like this quote it was

00:05:29.320 remarkable that the u.s attorney's office in washington led by janine pirro a longtime ally of

00:05:34.780 trump's authorized prosecutors to go into a grand jury and ask for an indictment of the six members of

00:05:41.320 congress all of whom had served in the military or the nation's spy agencies but it was even more

00:05:47.180 remarkable that a group of ordinary citizens sitting on the grand jury in federal district court in

00:05:52.100 washington forcefully rejected trump's bid to label their expression of dissent as a criminal act

00:05:58.800 warranting prosecution here's what two of those six lawmakers senators elissa slotkin and mark kelly

00:06:04.860 had to say about the failed attempt to indict them at a press conference earlier today

00:06:09.540 our democracy has been around for 250 years but it is not guaranteed

00:06:19.920 from the very beginning of our nation it has depended on the willingness of patriotic americans to fight for

00:06:31.100 it senator slotkin and i we did not ask for this we're just the first through the breach

00:06:38.720 but you'll be damn sure that we are not going to back down some of you know that i recently lost

00:06:45.680 my father a couple weeks ago and my father taught me two things he taught me right from wrong and he

00:06:53.080 taught me to love this country senator kelly and i have both served our country we have risked our lives

00:06:59.500 for our country this country has given me everything so if we have to sit here and take physical

00:07:05.700 intimidation and legal intimidation to uphold the country we love we will happily do that

00:07:10.600 on this vote the ace are 216 the nays are 215 the resolution is adopted without objection

00:07:19.260 this is the primal scream of a dying regime pray for our enemies because we're going to medieval on

00:07:30.060 these people here's not got a free shot all these networks lying about the people the people have had

00:07:36.780 a belly full of it i know you don't like hearing that i know you try to do everything in the world

00:07:40.720 to stop that but you're not going to stop it it's going to happen and where do people like that go

00:07:44.740 to share the big line mega media i wish in my soul i wish that any of these people had a conscience

00:07:52.900 ask yourself what is my task and what is my purpose if that answer is to save my country

00:08:00.220 this country will be saved war room here's your host stephen k bann

00:08:06.960 it's wednesday 11 february in the year of the lord 2026 you saw a perfect example today of reality

00:08:17.700 and what's going to affect this country and citizens of this country today in washington dc

00:08:23.620 and you saw the circus pam bondy gave as good as she got uh and it was a wild uh it was a wild

00:08:30.460 hearing she was viciously attacked from the beginning and pam took the gloves off and she attacked

00:08:36.420 back uh it was pretty extraordinary across the board also as we talked about last night but as

00:08:43.060 they took full measure the seditious uh conspirators who tried to talk the armed services when we have

00:08:49.620 you know a carrier battle group in the north arabian sea when we've still got a strike group

00:08:54.100 uh off the coast of venezuela we have troops deployed everywhere we just took uh cartel drones

00:09:00.700 armed drones out of the airspace over el paso texas you had senators that were telling uh enlisted

00:09:07.940 men and junior officers not to follow orders and of course a washington grand jury threw it out that

00:09:13.300 that's a same the same issue you've got on capitol hill you can't get justice in washington dc it is

00:09:20.060 the nation's capital the imperial capital is a country under siege by the far left i can tell you that

00:09:26.480 from having had the pleasure of going through the court system in uh in washington no no conservative

00:09:32.500 uh can get a fair shake he can't get justice and of course uh judge janine and others uh can't can't

00:09:39.140 uh they can't get justice either as they bring these cases it's not going to happen so my recommendation

00:09:43.680 is stop bringing cases in washington dc i think mark kelly ought to be recalled to active duty immediately

00:09:49.240 and put before a military tribunal for a court martial uh and and we'll go from there maybe you can get

00:09:54.880 the others too but definitely start with mark kelly since he's running his mouth like nobody's

00:09:59.120 business now the reality two huge things reality as we said today and walk through today with both

00:10:05.420 eric prince and kurt mills netanyahu showed up for a three-hour meeting close to the press there's been

00:10:10.760 no readout from it so far we do know some of the details of a kurt mills is going to join me uh

00:10:16.140 is going to join me later and of course the um you know the color revolution continues on natalie's

00:10:22.200 going to be here uh with us in a moment but i want to start with ej and tony ej we had you on

00:10:28.580 i think every couple of weeks for it felt you know it was like four years the one thing you would talk

00:10:35.160 about all the time is how you didn't feel comfortable with the bureau of labor statistics

00:10:41.400 uh particularly the way they were presenting information and and the buried lead which nobody

00:10:47.340 wanted to talk about today peter navarre brought it up is a recalculation of really biden lied to

00:10:53.860 the american people and people should be held accountable to this over the bureau of labor

00:10:57.580 statistics they ought to be perp walking people out of there this is just not as we talked about at the

00:11:02.460 time you can have a mathematical error you can have some sort of uh you know and do a correction on

00:11:08.400 it maybe an algorithm is wrong maybe the way they collect data is wrong but i believe it was

00:11:12.380 two million during the time of the biden administration including zero hedges got up of

00:11:18.060 a million in 2024 as they really try to juice the jobs rates and and job growth and actual jobs

00:11:25.380 in the run-up to the 2024 election this is trying to steal an election so before i get to all the great

00:11:31.180 news with president trump because the trade deficits hitting lows now the financial deficit the

00:11:38.120 financial deficit i think the the deficit for the country the economic deficit was under a hundred

00:11:43.580 billion dollars which i know sounds hey that's still terrible but it's not the 200 billion you're

00:11:47.920 not going to the two trillion dollar deficit you're on a different glide path if we can pull it off but

00:11:52.680 talk to me first we've got a couple of minutes here about i mean i i am stunned and you were put up

00:11:59.160 for bureau labor statistics and we should have you in there right now so you can get to the bottom of

00:12:04.460 this tell me about the phony jobs and the lies the bureau labor statistics and others in trying to

00:12:10.280 promote a biden presidency sir well steve as you were saying we've been talking about this on your

00:12:16.080 show for literally years now where the the bureau of labor statistics reports these supposedly great

00:12:22.380 numbers and then they always have to get revised down and these aren't small revisions they're huge

00:12:27.800 this was the biggest ever it was almost 900 000 for just a 12 month period and that's on top of

00:12:34.840 the previous downward revisions on a month-to-month basis so we essentially just found out today steve

00:12:40.640 that in biden's last year half actually just over half of the supposed job growth that had initially

00:12:48.280 been estimated didn't even exist and so it helps square that circle of how on earth could you have

00:12:55.100 report after report that looked so good these economic numbers and yet the american people always

00:13:01.100 said they felt terrible about biden's economy it turns out because again literally more than half

00:13:07.620 of the people who supposedly were getting jobs they weren't not at all and the other thing that it really

00:13:14.040 helps um i i guess to say solve the mystery so to speak steve is we had talked again on your show a lot

00:13:20.300 about how the number of jobs kept going up even though a different survey that counts how many

00:13:25.300 people are employed that was basically flat it was really just population adjustments that were causing

00:13:31.720 significant increases there well today with these big downward revisions for 2024 and 2025 now all of a

00:13:39.480 sudden those two metrics have reconverged and so i think that gives us a little bit more a little bit

00:13:45.740 more confidence in the data still not great but certainly better than it was when it was under

00:13:50.720 biden and it was as if it was a random number generator the numbers were truly truly horrific

00:13:57.060 no no when we come back we're gonna take a short break ej and tony one of the not just nicest guys i

00:14:04.260 know and smartest guys i know actually a very kind individual this this is this is one of the worst

00:14:09.560 i think it's one of the worst scandals out there how do you have a million jobs wanting a million

00:14:14.200 jobs if you take out the foreign-born uh labor and you take out the phony jobs the biden thing was a

00:14:20.120 catastrophe as the american people knew and american citizens knew short commercial break take your phone

00:16:21.180 here's your host stephen k bann okay ej and tony is going to stick with us we're going to get down

00:16:30.660 to the bottom of the scandal i mean the bureau labor statistics it's it's a psyop let's go to

00:16:35.260 brian glenn at the white house brian we just had the coal ceremony about uh making sure we're

00:16:40.440 maximizing the use of coal which is a brilliant thing clean coal uh there was a three-hour meeting

00:16:45.020 you broke the news today that netanyahu had come through the side door now one of the reasons i'm

00:16:50.800 trying to get the bottom he might have been over at eob having the pre-meeting with marco rubio there

00:16:55.960 where he signed the uh where he signed the board of peace although people in israel some are saying

00:17:02.040 hey any signature like that on on something or participate has to be passed by the the cabinet

00:17:07.380 you haven't done it so that's pretty controversial have you heard anything it was a three-hour meeting

00:17:12.320 what have you heard they haven't made any announcements i think there's been a readout

00:17:15.720 what have you heard yeah the only readout that i've heard is there hasn't been any really

00:17:21.680 significant progress president trump did in fact uh suggest that he would love to get a deal with

00:17:29.480 iran uh but if that was not possible then he would go to option number two and referenced uh midnight

00:17:36.680 hammer uh being perhaps midnight hammer 2.0 but uh yeah i mean they were in there for

00:17:42.300 three hours like as you said uh the prime minister not making their traditional arrival

00:17:47.380 along where i stand right here along pebble beach going in the west wing but opted to even further

00:17:52.780 uh steve i learned it was closer to the south lawn entrance it wasn't even the entrance that is just

00:18:00.120 off the west wing so it was even further out of uh eyes view there but uh three-hour meeting not

00:18:06.240 much came out of it other than uh if we cannot find an agreement to president trump peace said he

00:18:11.300 would look at the option number two which would be something in the likes of a midnight hammer

00:18:16.000 well i think that's a pretty big because there's a there's a big gap between the bid and the ask

00:18:21.760 remember netanyahu wants a complete you know eradication of any of their weapons programs because

00:18:28.360 they were getting hammered by ballistic missiles he also wants these negotiations to even expand

00:18:33.800 about potential regime change i'm not talking about going kinetic he clearly wants to go kinetic but

00:18:38.220 if he can't get that the iranians want it tighter and narrower so president trump's saying hey we can't

00:18:43.540 you know because they're talking about getting away around their entire nuclear program and maybe even

00:18:48.420 their ballistic missiles there's a lot of heated talk kurt mills are going to join us in a while but

00:18:52.900 there's a lot of heated talk coming out of iran in the middle east and europe about the scale of this so

00:18:58.380 the president's saying hey if i don't get a deal we're going to uh we're going to go in like midnight

00:19:02.800 hammer and he's bringing many more assets into the region than he had for midnight hammer i mean right

00:19:09.460 now there's one carrier strike group there in the north arabian sea my understanding is that he's ordered

00:19:14.600 another one to be ready to deploy quickly uh so this is uh this is uh going down the path uh and

00:19:21.800 president trump's trying to put max pressure on but this is going down the path of we could be in a

00:19:26.060 kinetic war we could we could and we said this this morning that if you look at you know midnight

00:19:31.620 hammer is completely different it was flying a bomber across the world being very precise on one

00:19:36.740 target and coming back but when you start allocating assets around that region significant

00:19:42.680 assets around that region that suggests if there is a kinetic strike i don't think it's going to be

00:19:49.100 anything like midnight hammer i think it's a little bit uh more of an involved strike on iran i think as

00:19:54.700 we have all in the posse will tell you and people that i've talked to uh here along pebble beach and

00:20:00.520 uh americans this is something they do not want this is not our fight this is not our uh development

00:20:08.380 to get involved with and with gene change and that's simply what this would be but we'll see

00:20:14.060 hopefully option one uh is what at the end of the day happens and that we don't go to this second

00:20:20.920 option which would be some type of kinetic strike so the president reiterated today he wants a deal

00:20:26.240 he's going to try to work for a deal um we do understand he's you know he's asked a bunch of

00:20:30.840 times hey is there a target set like uh like uh like the first expeditionary raid of the b2s coming

00:20:38.660 from uh from nebraska coming from the strategic air command and the navy submarines hitting him with

00:20:44.000 tomahawk missiles that took it out as he said ended the 12-day war and total obliteration i don't believe

00:20:49.860 he's been given that target set because as you said the irgc it's a massive force it's spread all

00:20:54.480 over the ayatollah might be able to take out the ayatollah but not maybe not the military sets anyway

00:20:58.840 hegseth and the team are working that up and so far they've been magnificent but people should

00:21:03.900 understand that you're going to be on tenterhooks about whether this happens or not uh brian the coal

00:21:08.520 thing was spectacular uh the uh i'm sure we're going to get more out of the white house on this what's

00:21:13.940 happening on um on uh on iran but the jobs numbers two things happened number one the jobs numbers were

00:21:20.940 terrific i just don't think the white house has been so preoccupied they haven't been pushing it

00:21:25.040 out enough we're doing it here today with agree with ej and tony also the save america act just

00:21:31.280 passed in the house 216 to 215 so johnson as much as we get on him he's really running and it had one

00:21:38.300 a republican i think voted against it he's having a he's having to walk a tightrope here but john

00:21:44.120 thune and the people in the senate have basically said well we're not going to kill the filibusters

00:21:48.000 nowhere's got 60 votes in fact he doesn't have tuberville told us they didn't have all the

00:21:51.700 republican votes i think collins has already said she's not voting for it uh so what is do you have

00:21:57.300 any word out of the white house or what they're thinking now that president trump needs this act he needs

00:22:02.680 to codify about these elections executive orders are just not going to hack it i know it's a high

00:22:07.500 priority tells people that every day what do you hear yeah now as if we were in the call event so

00:22:13.740 i don't have any update on that but as soon as we get off the broadcast here i will go and see if we

00:22:18.120 have any update on that i will say in to all the jobs report yesterday if you notice at the end of

00:22:23.260 karen levitt's uh briefing there in the press room she kind of i think got a little uh aggravated that

00:22:30.260 some of the topics weren't being asked about the jobs report and about the economy and certain numbers

00:22:35.800 that have come out some really positive numbers and she kind of struck you know kind of uh lashed

00:22:40.040 out at the media for not asking the important questions of some of the good things that are

00:22:45.540 happening but in and you know basically what do you expect when you stack the briefing room with

00:22:51.160 media outlets that don't care to talk about the positive economic numbers that are coming out so

00:22:56.600 lots of great things the call event was terrific look look look they just lied about for years

00:23:03.060 two million phony jobs that they promoted every day when they were doing they were doing recalculations

00:23:08.200 every two months they never got on that it was two million phony jobs or two and a half million as

00:23:12.700 ej tells me almost a million in the run-up to biden's election that the media she ought to clear the

00:23:18.380 whole room out i mean i don't even know why they had the briefings i agree because all this well

00:23:21.960 they just did another seating chart by the way they just did another seating chart what they did

00:23:25.740 was give an extra seat to like fox to fox radio and the cbs to cbs radio so everyone everyone in

00:23:31.300 the networks got an additional seat to a different branch of their network i believe the daily wire if

00:23:38.460 i'm not mistaken the daily wire got a rotation seat with another outlet so they are trying to i guess

00:23:45.400 in a way put a little bit more of the new media uh in there but i still have to stand on the side of

00:23:50.320 the briefing room and and these things are packed steve this is the international media that is here

00:23:55.560 at these briefing rooms is insane you're still so it hey it's standing you're still you're still

00:24:01.300 you're still teacher's pet what do you mean you're you're the you're the what was her name uh the the

00:24:05.960 from the upi helen thomas you're the helen thomas the modern helen thomas he traditionally got the

00:24:12.300 first call you do uh where social media where do people get you sir yeah you can follow me at

00:24:17.940 brian glenn tv and i'll do everything i can to get a little bit more response from the white house

00:24:21.980 in regards to the safe back in the senate uh doug bergen i just walked by earlier i'll i'll try to

00:24:27.120 get with him get a comment you can follow me on social media at brian glenn tv steve as always thank

00:24:31.360 you thank you sir okay ej before we get to the new numbers i got to go back to this folks i want

00:24:37.600 you to understand the scale of this this is how this is how they play this is smash mouth they lied

00:24:43.120 about two and a half million jobs ej would come here why why did ej get selected by president

00:24:48.480 trump to be the head of bls and it was murkowski and susan collins let's call them out who tanked

00:24:55.560 that you should be over there right now for four years you sat up here and said hey they're gun

00:25:00.060 decking this and of course in 23 and 24 you were the loudest person in the room saying they're going

00:25:04.740 back this is this can't be just a calculation mistake it's happening all the time two and a half

00:25:09.700 million jobs i think the last two years a million jobs in the run-up to the 2024 election they were

00:25:16.460 gun decking this on purpose they were using this as a political they were taking false economic data

00:25:22.480 that they knew to be false and they were weaponizing this in a political context ej and tony

00:25:27.880 steve i think one of the key elements here is the fact that the economy changed wildly both during

00:25:35.140 and then after covid and so if you want to give everybody all the statisticians and the economists

00:25:40.900 a pass for the first year or two because so much had changed and there was a lot that they had to

00:25:46.100 change in terms of models and methodologies i think that makes perfect sense but and this is a big but

00:25:51.680 when the same mistakes keep happening month after month and year after year at what point do you say

00:25:59.140 this is no longer acceptable and there is no excuse anymore for these kinds of mistakes and and that's

00:26:06.040 where we were back in i think 23 and certainly most certainly in 2024 there was absolutely no excuse for

00:26:14.300 why the problems had not yet been fixed and in fact some of them still are not yet fixed there were

00:26:20.940 different changes that were implemented in today's report that will hopefully adjust for how uh how

00:26:27.460 businesses are essentially created and lost in the economy and the employment impact that uh that that

00:26:33.640 those changes have but we'll have to wait and see if those changes actually make a difference or not but

00:26:39.120 again i go back to my point steve the fact remains that you cannot be that incompetent for that long

00:26:47.140 and tell me that everything is above board are you really that bad at your job do you really have your

00:26:53.900 head buried that far in the sand that the these repeated mistakes time and time again that are only

00:27:00.660 increasing in magnitude in other words they're getting worse over time you can't tell me that

00:27:06.300 everything is above board there i'm sorry it just doesn't make sense uh give me uh give me 30 seconds

00:27:12.780 on who should be accountable and what should happen here sir we just can't let this pass

00:27:16.860 well steve unfortunately the only person at bls who's actually appointed is the commissioner everyone

00:27:23.860 else is a career so what that tells you is we desperately need the kinds of reform that the

00:27:29.500 president has been talking about going all the way back to his his first administration we need the

00:27:34.400 kinds of reforms that are going to allow him to reform the civil service in other words he needs to be

00:27:40.080 able to fire a lot more of these people they can't hide behind all of these weaselly protections anymore

00:27:45.520 e.j if you just hang on from megan i do want to talk about the positive nature of this also the

00:30:12.400 from going in the water even though it's very hot outside i say all the investment gurus out there

00:30:18.600 jump in the markets in the u.s because global gdp is going to take a big ramp up and the u.s is leading

00:30:26.180 the way ej and tony that is the great rick santelli and he is the great rick santelli

00:30:31.880 mocking the rest of squawk box to their face on the progressive democrats they have on there that

00:30:39.700 are trash-talking president trump the business press folks i know you don't you know a lot of you don't

00:30:44.700 get into the wall street journal financial times of london or watch the business shows it's worse

00:30:49.600 than msnbc and cnn here's why you have mathematical facts you should be dealing with and they purposely

00:30:56.160 go out to misrepresent it ej give me a couple of minutes on the power of this jobs report for

00:31:02.300 president trump's program well steve one of the really big indicators that we got out of this is

00:31:08.600 the fact that in trump's first year because now that's what we have right january of 25 to january

00:31:14.040 of 26 that's the data that's in the books you see that almost all of the net job growth in fact

00:31:20.300 actually all of the net job growth is going to foreign excuse me it's going to native-born americans

00:31:26.240 not foreign-born workers it's exactly the opposite of what we saw under biden especially biden's last

00:31:32.860 couple of years in fact during almost the entirety of biden's last year the annual net change for jobs

00:31:40.020 among native-born americans was negative in other words they were losing ground on net there were more

00:31:45.660 people losing jobs than gaining them again that's among native-born americans so that that's a really

00:31:51.260 big component here who is actually getting the job second is the kind of jobs being created in january

00:31:57.520 of 2025 that handoff month between biden and trump it turns out the economy being handed to trump was

00:32:04.360 much weaker than previously estimated and in fact the net change in jobs that month was negative you

00:32:11.860 actually had only government adding jobs the productive private sector was losing jobs now you

00:32:17.200 fast forward exactly one year to january of 2026 and trump has flipped that script it is now the private

00:32:24.160 sector that is gaining jobs government is losing jobs he has managed to push the uh the level of federal

00:32:30.520 jobs down to the lowest level since 1966 literally six decades you have to go back six decades to find a time

00:32:39.280 when there were fewer people employed among the federal bureaucracy that's huge steve so again who

00:32:46.240 is getting the jobs the kind of jobs that are being created or lost and then lastly another big takeaway

00:32:52.000 has to do with how much people are getting paid by by uh essentially having more people in good

00:32:58.760 full-time jobs with benefits high pay and not everybody having to get multiple part-time jobs what's

00:33:05.440 happening is you're seeing a big increase in how much people are getting paid in other words the size

00:33:10.340 of their weekly paycheck but and this is a big but unlike under biden when inflation ate up all of those

00:33:16.500 gains under trump with lower inflation those gains are being preserved so if you look at steve what can

00:33:22.580 the average american buy with his or her weekly paycheck under biden according to the official numbers

00:33:27.820 it fell about 4.0 percent under trump in just one year it is up about 2.0 percent so that tells you

00:33:35.600 number one we've course corrected right we were heading in the wrong direction now we're heading in

00:33:39.720 the right direction but the other thing it tells you is that we have not yet regained all of the

00:33:44.440 lost ground from the biden years and i think that last point is why a lot of people still don't feel

00:33:50.340 satisfied with the economy even though things are getting better they're still not as good as let's say

00:33:56.140 when trump left office the first go around trade deficit down 78 percent uh the uh the the economic

00:34:02.920 deficit down for this month uh below uh 100 billion um you're seeing the turnaround in manufacturing

00:34:08.860 peter navarro is great today ej and tony the best most succinct analysis of president trump's uh

00:34:15.800 president trump's economy and the turnaround you won't get it you won't see it on bloomberg you won't

00:34:20.120 see on cnbc you won't see on fox business you see right here in the war room uh ej fantastic

00:34:26.080 where do people go particularly your social media story putting up stuff all the time

00:34:29.440 best place to find me is going to be on the x platform and the handle there is at real ej and

00:34:35.680 tony i want to say something before you leave uh president trump has worked and said in in the

00:34:41.660 war and posse the mega base the republic has said the save america act with the voter id uh purging the

00:34:47.960 voter rolls and also talking about these mail-in ballots is absolutely essential we have to codify

00:34:52.520 this they pass it by one thing in the house today and the senate's not even going to take it up

00:34:57.040 they they've already said there's not enough votes here uh to uh to do a talking filibuster and 60

00:35:02.420 votes is totally dead plus tuberville told us last night there there are people uh republican senators

00:35:08.040 that tell him all the time i'm not going to vote for that i'll get chopped up in the media the same

00:35:12.640 people you're telling me ej and tony should not be the bureau of labor statistics for four freaking years

00:35:19.420 he sat here and every month told you exactly what they were doing and how they were doing it at 23

00:35:26.780 and 24 he ramped it up so the two and a half million jobs and knowing that they they use as a

00:35:32.040 psyop this gentleman sat here every month and told you how it was happening he knows where the people are

00:35:39.380 accountable and how to fix it and what the reason he is not the head of bureau labor statistics is one

00:35:45.680 reason they knew he would go in and change it and the uniparty does not want change the same people

00:35:51.920 that will not bring the save america act to a vote in the senate and do what's necessary for the country

00:35:58.720 are the same exact people that would not uh confirm ej and tony as head of bureau labor statistics sir

00:36:07.220 you're a patriot and a hero particularly hero of mine uh thank you so much for joining us and the great

00:36:12.000 work you do steve thank you for everything you do thank you brother appreciate you kurt mills

00:36:19.800 three three hours there's been no real leaks about it by the way a three-hour meeting in washington but

00:36:25.500 in doha because cutter and you know our allies uae cutter the the the saudis who all hate and of course

00:36:34.020 uae and saudi hate him more than cutter but are all hate the persians and distrust them maybe in business

00:36:39.800 with him and some gas fields they don't want a war because they said we're not ready for it the

00:36:43.620 the persians gonna be shooting missiles everywhere they're going to take out straits of her moves

00:36:48.020 they're going to take out uh they're going to take out infrastructure and take out the gas fields

00:36:52.120 it'll be years before we pull it back somebody's got to listen up to us so tell us about the tale of

00:36:57.180 two cities here today yeah no you make a very important point this is what's actually changed

00:37:02.780 considerably from uh president trump's first administration uh the gulf so-called so this is

00:37:08.260 kingdom saudi arabia uae qatar other nations such as uh oman uh they are very aligned more or less

00:37:16.620 against a new iran war um i can get into why um but that that basically puts them off sides of israel

00:37:23.680 here and they are uh lobbying the administration to prevent an all-out war uh even the most israel

00:37:29.980 favorable emirate uh the uae the the yeah yeah it's not by the way i want to i want to say it's not

00:37:35.240 these guys like the ayatollah or the mullahs these are the guys actually back in the first term

00:37:40.300 that hated them and wanted removal quite frankly saudi arabia and uae more than president trump in

00:37:46.140 the united states the the shift the change has been now they've seen as they're backed into a

00:37:51.940 corner they're concerned about uh regional destruction here if it goes forward and they

00:37:57.420 see how they've been weakened by president trump's economic warfare the ayatollah is not in control now

00:38:02.600 and could collapse i'm not saying it's going to be pretty i'm not saying it's going to be next week

00:38:06.680 but he's essentially been neutralized as hezbollah and other other proxy armies have correct no i mean

00:38:13.240 if anything the uae and saudi arabia were the driving force for iran hawkishness more than israel

00:38:18.440 seven years ago so it's a major it's a major shift um and so you have the region basically united

00:38:25.480 uh against a new war uh they know it'll be very ugly it's very likely that iran will fire missiles

00:38:32.140 on numerous military installations the of course the americans maintain uh a major military base in

00:38:38.800 qatar and this could get ugly real fast and additionally even if iran didn't have severe

00:38:45.700 military capabilities and i think they do it's pretty easy for them to close what is called the

00:38:50.200 straighter for moves um if they just fire a couple of missiles at these commercial vessels uh no

00:38:55.980 commercial vessel is going to have its crew get killed or pay the insurance on it that could very

00:39:01.080 well spike the price of oil um 10 20 30 dollars immediately it could cause the markets to react

00:39:08.260 similar to how you saw the markets react uh towards liberation day last spring and you know that's going

00:39:15.020 to make president trump pretty cool to this but in contrast in contrast to the tariff policy that i think

00:39:21.600 was in the national interest and is something that donald trump and president trump deeply cares about

00:39:27.080 this is a wholly elective uh foreign policy adventure uh that has nothing to do with american national

00:39:34.960 interests and has everything to do with perceived national interests of the israelis and i think that's why

00:39:40.900 netanyahu is here in washington tonight and that is the message he tried to deliver to president trump

00:39:46.380 president trump clearly hasn't made his mind up yet um but the israelis are going to demand a series of

00:39:51.820 of um criterion that the iranians frankly would prefer to just go to war over and the key linchpin

00:39:58.960 here the key criterion is whether or not the missiles the ballistic missile arsenal that iran still

00:40:05.080 maintains is going to be on the table because if they give it up there's you know from their

00:40:09.680 perspective they're as good as gone as a regime and you don't have to like these guys to understand

00:40:14.000 that there's certain rationality especially for how you know american presidents before donald trump

00:40:19.140 dealt with different rogue regimes gaddafi gave up his weapons in the early 2000s what happened to

00:40:24.800 gaddafi he was murdered by his own people these these regimes are not stupid and they're going to play

00:40:30.620 their cards with few of them they have pretty tight and pretty well uh but president trump once again

00:40:36.600 first off you had his whole discussion about gaza uh i mean he's all in and people you know got to

00:40:42.380 realize he's all in with the peace plan and the redevelopment as you said today it may not help

00:40:47.020 happen on his watch but he's uh the clearing might but actually the the building of the new what it

00:40:52.520 looks like either tel aviv or a new miami beach will not be on uh and his watching lists were fortunate

00:40:57.660 enough to keep him uh through 28 but he's all in on this cutter in turkey we're providing security and

00:41:03.580 qatar the um qatar the uh the the financing and so that was a big part of the discussion today we

00:41:09.880 haven't heard there's a lot of hasn't been really an official readout but we'll get everything to you

00:41:13.520 tomorrow what should people uh be looking for kurt uh tonight as you put stuff up on social media

00:41:18.800 yeah i mean i think there's every uh indication that there's going to be

00:41:23.360 a new round of talks next week um that of course is in you know in in the case that nothing big

00:41:29.280 happens i the u.s doesn't attack the israelis don't attack or the iranians don't attack first

00:41:34.340 you have to remember the iranians have their own hardliners who want to go to war um and you know

00:41:39.400 the better angels over there are restraining them um from here uh you have to look at you know

00:41:45.300 basically the dialogue i think it was very uh telling uh that the vice president today jd vance

00:41:50.960 indicated uh that the administration's goal is quote only a nuclear weapon if the if the goal

00:41:58.000 is to prevent the iranians from just getting a nuclear weapon then president trump has that deal

00:42:02.520 on the table right now and it's a much better deal than the one that barack obama inked if it is an

00:42:07.860 expansive deal a so-called surrender deal that the iranians would rather just fight the war and

00:42:14.120 take their chances then we are going to go to war um your probability being a betting man right now

00:42:21.080 president trump has said once again i want to deal here as you see it right now are we on the path to

00:42:27.000 a kinetic conflict with the mullahs and ayatollahs in tehran at least uh a succession of bombing runs

00:42:33.360 on target packages sir well you know the magazine internally bet on this two weeks ago and i took the

00:42:39.500 under that we would not have a war by valentine's day so i've got three more days uh to make till

00:42:46.080 then um as to the uh zoom out on it i still think that this has been a pretty strange series of events

00:42:52.980 uh the prime minister of israel spent new years with president trump in mar-a-lago iran was top of

00:43:00.580 the agenda the iranians had massive protests maybe the biggest protests in the history of the regime

00:43:06.040 since 1979 uh they put them down pretty ferociously uh president trump had a red line that no protesters

00:43:13.000 could get killed um i think evidently some certainly got killed um and still uh the u.s moved

00:43:20.640 installations into the region and still the u.s hasn't struck and my suspicion and my understanding

00:43:26.080 from conversations with people in the know is there's just not a clear move here uh are we going

00:43:31.920 to assassinate uh the leader kurt kurt kurt hang on for one second i just want to hold you through

00:46:47.860 media tonight because i'm sure there's going to be a lot of news breaking yeah look top line on iran

00:46:54.000 and why president trump i think should sign a deal and is thinking about signing a deal there aren't strong

00:46:59.140 military moves on iran if they try to assassinate the supreme leader in some ways that might make

00:47:04.280 uh the sim the system more nimble uh could be replaced with a much younger more capable in theory

00:47:10.060 uh successor and that's not a particularly attractive move if they try to enact reprisals on the regime

00:47:15.940 for the killing of protesters it's not clear where to start and you might have an iraq redux the president

00:47:21.000 of the united states has been very clear that he is not attracted to regime change boots on the

00:47:26.840 ground type operations and i think that is why uh the preponderance of the evidence is that he might

00:47:32.600 take a pass here and signed a strong deal with the iranians um as for our own uh work the magazine is

00:47:39.380 the american conservative it is a magazine founded by patrick buchanan and conservatives in 2002

00:47:44.860 against the iraq war and you can find my own work at at c-u-r-t-m-i-l-s on x at kurt mills

00:47:53.220 thank you very much thank you brother uh natalie i i really i don't want to waste time going back

00:47:58.720 over ron i think we spend way too much time to begin with the real fight is what you you have

00:48:03.200 on your sub stack a pretty shocking piece tell me about it well it's this new term that i think we

00:48:09.120 should get used to in the warm it's called revolution consultants there's this organization

00:48:13.500 called the center for applied non-violent action and strategies canvas for short they're

00:48:19.220 funded by usaid open society really a hub of left-wing protests they're headquartered in

00:48:24.980 serbia if you can believe it um but they're actually hardwired in not just to of course the

00:48:30.060 democratic party and these left-wing protesters that we're seeing but actually universities like

00:48:34.740 harvard tufts colorado college grinnell they've been drafting curriculums teaching students and

00:48:41.160 activists how to protest with online tactics and tools including books like blueprint uh for revolution

00:48:47.860 they actually have their own cutout at colorado college uh in the political science department

00:48:53.320 and steve i think this story really gets to the heart of the issue which is what we're talking about

00:48:57.020 and frankly i think it's why ice is having such a difficult time engaging with these protesters which

00:49:02.380 is they're not protesters they're regime change activists they focus on destabilizing governments

00:49:07.680 and the key here is that they're usaid funded they're foreign and they're using these usaid

00:49:12.300 style tactics bringing them to the united states if you read their literature which i have you can go

00:49:17.860 read my sub stack you can see the quotes they're using intelligence community uh type speak right when

00:49:23.320 they're talking about the tactics identifying pillars of support the curriculum that they have

00:49:28.120 teaching activists and students um how to basically engage in revolution their words not mine and there's

00:49:35.180 one other piece too on the same topic that i'd encourage people to go check out um this is not a joke

00:49:39.780 this is a real thing the who now has the immunization agenda 2030 um where they're working on rolling

00:49:47.120 out mass vaccination campaigns across the country or across the world uh focusing in on countering

00:49:52.720 vaccine hesitancy misinformation disinformation and the politicization of science um so you should

00:49:58.960 definitely read that story too i think these these work together but that that canvas story there's

00:50:03.440 more we're going to be reporting on that but really shows you the connectivity between usaid the

00:50:08.320 global regime change movements and the protest movements here usaid means that you the audience

00:50:13.440 are paying for it instead of taking you know the hours of preparation is three hours in a meeting

00:50:18.380 as i keep saying the problem we've got is in the streets of new york the problem we have is in the

00:50:24.180 streets of minneapolis the problems we got are down here in texas they're not in tehran that's why

00:50:29.180 there's a huge opportunity cost am i too far off base natalie winters you're exactly right but i also

00:50:35.940 think that there's foreign opportunity costs too i mean when you think about between venezuela

00:50:40.860 um iran the strategic and technological advantages that we have revealed that the united states has

00:50:46.860 when it comes to chinese air defense capabilities um what happened in operation midnight hammer with

00:50:52.160 maduro um i think is really risky especially when you put that through what is i think the most likely

00:50:57.120 actual kinetic flashpoint of world war three which is what's going on in taiwan and i think we're

00:51:01.780 compromising our position when it comes to china by engaging in a lot of these other countries

00:51:06.460 deploying not just depleting our weapon stockpiles but showing some of these novel technologies that

00:51:11.600 we have but look if you want to have a regime change war uh you don't got to go to iran you have

00:51:16.400 people who are being trained in the very same uh tactics here a lot of these iranian protesters

00:51:21.020 uh this group canvas for example works with iranians works with a bunch of countries they work with

00:51:25.960 over 120 countries so it doesn't really make sense uh you want to deal with radical regime change types

00:51:31.400 here we got them you want to deal with radical islamists you got them in texas and new york you

00:51:36.020 want radical anti-democrat anti-democratic activists you got them here you don't need to go overseas
