00:00:00.000
Again, but prioritization doesn't mean forget about everybody else.
00:00:02.620
That means you have a criminal alien here, a non-criminal here.
00:00:05.440
The criminal always comes first because he's the biggest threat to the communities.
00:00:08.860
We're going to continue to force immigration law.
00:00:11.220
We won't get back to the footprint here, the normal footprint here.
00:00:14.520
But there will be some security teams staying here, the QRFs,
00:00:19.720
until we're assured that those agitators, incidents, either stay low or further decline.
00:00:26.800
I'm not going to remove everybody, the safety of our officers.
00:00:30.160
But like I said, Operation Metro Surge is ending.
00:00:35.380
And in the next week, we're going to deploy the officers here in detail
00:00:40.260
back to their home stations or other areas of the country that are needed.
00:00:44.020
But we're going to continue to enforce immigration law.
00:00:51.940
And look, I hear all the hate about, you know, you should arrest everybody.
00:00:58.220
But we're prioritizing those who are the biggest threat to our community, the rapists,
00:01:09.200
President Trump made a promise of mass deportation.
00:01:15.560
There are going to remain some officers, some agents in Minnesota, according to border czar Tom Homan.
00:01:22.520
The immigration crackdown in Minnesota seems, though, to be wrapping up.
00:01:27.260
And they say that they've achieved what they set out to do.
00:01:33.720
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry said this in a statement, quote,
00:01:38.680
But a love for our neighbors and a resolve to endure can outlast an occupation.
00:01:43.800
These patriots of Minneapolis are showing that it's not just about resistance.
00:01:48.140
Standing with our neighbors is deeply American.
00:02:01.560
I think it's probably safe to say the rest of the country will be forever grateful
00:02:07.660
because they showed what it means to stand up for what's right,
00:02:11.760
to stand up for the true principles of this country,
00:02:14.320
to stand with the Constitution, and to stand with human decency.
00:02:19.180
And so I want to note that the announcement today by Mr. Homan,
00:02:34.440
and that this surge of untrained, aggressive federal agents are going to leave Minnesota.
00:02:45.620
As the governor noted there, the acts of bravery by the people of Minneapolis,
00:02:51.320
including the tens of thousands of people who went out to protest day after day
00:02:55.680
in bitter cold temperatures, have inspired a nationwide movement.
00:03:02.500
Obviously, there's progress in that they are leaving right now.
00:03:05.520
But as far as some deal that was struck to get them out, the answer is no.
00:03:09.680
I think what you saw is you saw a federal government and an administration
00:03:15.600
that thought that they were going to break the people of Minneapolis down.
00:03:19.880
They thought that we were going to back down and sort of kowtow to whatever it is
00:03:24.440
that they were looking to get done, not just locally in Minneapolis, but nationwide.
00:03:28.580
They were looking to implement a national agenda based on coercing us to change local policy.
00:03:40.360
And I think that's the kind of patriotism that is ultimately going to get us through this.
00:03:44.440
But I'm pleased to be joined today by EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin,
00:03:51.160
who you all know, and to announce the single largest deregulatory action in American history.
00:04:08.920
we are officially terminating the so-called endangerment finding,
00:04:14.440
a disastrous Obama-era policy that severely damaged the American auto industry
00:04:19.840
and massively drove up prices for American consumers.
00:04:22.240
When consumers' prices went up incredibly for a worse product,
00:04:27.760
this action will eliminate over $1.3 trillion of regulatory costs
00:04:33.080
and help bring car prices tumbling down dramatically.
00:04:45.000
It's absolutely appropriate for people to breathe a sigh of relief,
00:04:49.640
particularly the people in Minneapolis and around the country.
00:04:53.580
I mean, everybody wants this, wanted that nightmare to end.
00:04:57.840
And obviously, trust but verify, we'll keep watching to make sure
00:05:02.580
that they actually are doing what they say they're going to do.
00:05:07.080
You know, there's been this upward movement from,
00:05:11.560
as we go through this, I count it every time I feel like I talk about this,
00:05:14.700
but from Los Angeles to Washington to Chicago to Minneapolis,
00:05:17.720
there's just been an increase, and importantly,
00:05:20.640
an increase in the number of agents, federal agents on the street,
00:05:30.660
we were all freaking out about the fact that, and rightly so,
00:05:33.680
that Donald Trump had deployed some Marines to Los Angeles,
00:05:36.720
and that was unconstitutional or illegal, violating posse comitatus.
00:05:40.300
I think that one of the things that happened over the course of that time
00:05:43.360
was that Trump realized that the military might be just too professional for him
00:05:49.480
to carry out what he wants to get done in these cities,
00:05:54.060
but also as a dress rehearsal for what might happen at the polls in November.
00:05:57.880
And there was a realization as he went through these various trial runs,
00:06:02.060
these dress rehearsals, that ICE was the better agent for him than the U.S. military.
00:06:09.320
Somebody who actually is a senior ranking person in the military
00:06:13.380
sorry, we're not going to do this, President Trump,
00:06:18.220
because it's not in keeping with our mission and with our oath to the Constitution.
00:06:24.740
Donald Trump has figured out that ICE is the way to go
00:06:27.520
if you want to exercise these kind of repressive and violent tactics
00:06:30.260
and these kind of intimidating tactics that are all designed to build up people,
00:06:37.820
Watching what happened in Minneapolis, as much as they admire,
00:06:40.600
millions of us admire what people were doing on the streets in resistance in Minneapolis,
00:06:44.640
people also are looking at what happened in Minneapolis
00:06:46.600
and saw two execution-style murders on the streets of Minneapolis.
00:06:51.820
And there are going to be people around the country
00:06:53.660
who are going to be left with a residue of fear
00:06:56.040
because of what they saw on the part of the government in Minneapolis.
00:06:59.340
And so I think, you know, this just is, to amplify Miles' point,
00:07:03.300
none of these things should be taken in isolation.
00:07:06.180
We have to be able to look at them as a continuum, as an escalation,
00:07:11.960
And the end game, I think, is not just an end game that has to do with the deportation agenda.
00:07:16.380
I think the end game has to do with the elections in November.
00:07:19.320
I want to thank Governor Walz for his messages focusing on peace
00:07:23.560
and his support for the Minnesota state troopers to respond to unlawful situations
00:07:28.360
that put federal officers and the public at risk.
00:07:31.620
I also want to thank Mayor Fry for taking a public stance against agitators setting up barricades
00:07:38.680
and for directing the police to take those roadblocks down.
00:07:46.140
Just say I want to thank Police Chief O'Hara, Sheriff Witt,
00:07:51.520
for their responsiveness and efforts to maintain law and order in the streets.
00:07:55.140
We've seen a big change here in the last couple of weeks.
00:08:04.540
I'm also pleased to report that we're seeing a notable decrease
00:08:07.900
on unlawful agitator activity here in Minneapolis and overall throughout the state.
00:08:14.740
that have been adversely impacted by the lawlessness and chaos on the street.
00:08:26.840
Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.
00:08:32.040
Here's the reason I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
00:08:39.660
I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that,
00:08:43.600
And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
00:08:47.940
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:08:53.860
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:08:57.560
If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:09:11.860
It's Thursday, 12 February, year of alert, 2026.
00:09:17.160
Of course, there you saw Tom Homan trying to be magnanimous and compliment Mayor Frye and compliment the governor.
00:09:24.480
Of course, you saw the governor, those guys afterwards.
00:09:29.780
President Trump trying to go out of his way to work out something here.
00:09:42.160
Thune had to shift his for a technicality, had to shift this so they can bring it back up, but not close to the 60 votes.
00:09:48.580
Think they're going to vote again about some patch.
00:09:50.720
And then they're going to leave for the Munich Global Security Conference and take next week off.
00:09:55.800
So got to figure out what's going to happen to ICE, what's going to happen to DHS here.
00:10:07.520
We had a judge that sat there today and said that Pete Hegseth cannot recall Kelly to active duty to having faced a military tribunal and be court-martialed.
00:10:18.260
And then our favorite, Boesburg, Julie Kelly, joins us by phone.
00:10:22.060
You've just put something great up on your substack.
00:10:27.500
But this shows you President Trump is trying to work with these people, but you can't work with them.
00:10:32.940
And particularly the judiciary and these sanctuary city mayors and these sanctuary state governors, there's nothing.
00:10:46.780
Julie Kelly, our favorite, Boesburg, who the House has not moved on impeaching.
00:10:52.000
And I even think Ted Cruz mentioned that he should be impeached, along with your other, Beryl Howell, your other favorite.
00:11:00.600
And I realize people are going to find this quite unbelievable, ma'am.
00:11:05.480
Well, Steve, you and I have talked about this for almost a year.
00:11:11.240
From March 15th of 2025, the first lawsuit lands on Jeff Boesburg's desk, chief judge of the D.C. District Court.
00:11:20.820
This is the ACLU filing the first lawsuit to prohibit the president's invocation of the Alien Enemies Act.
00:11:30.080
And that ordered the immediate deportation of illegal Venezuelans who are tied to Trente de Aragua, which has been designated a foreign terrorist organization by the administration.
00:11:41.180
That night, as planes had already left U.S. airspace, two planes carrying AEA subjects,
00:11:50.900
Jeb Bosburg gives what he called an oral command to return those two planes carrying the illegal Venezuelans,
00:12:00.380
that they had not been offered their due process rights and or habeas petitions.
00:12:06.900
So, of course, planes were already out of U.S. airspace, as we've discussed.
00:12:13.560
They were sent to CICOT in El Salvador and then eventually released into Venezuela.
00:12:22.240
Jeb Bosburg now has spent almost an entire year trying not only to get these illegal Venezuelans back to the United States,
00:12:31.160
but to use that oral order, he calls it, as the basis of contempt findings against the Trump administration.
00:12:41.060
But because they did not return those planes, they were in contempt of court.
00:12:50.720
He finally issues an order demanding that not just the DOJ return the men who have now also left Venezuela.
00:13:04.900
Arrange for remote habeas hearings for the people who are still in Venezuela.
00:13:10.080
But the men who are flown back to the United States, who want to advance their habeas claims,
00:13:18.760
that means get out of detention or continue to oppose their designation as an AEA subject,
00:13:26.040
Jeb Bosburg ordered the government to pay for these men to be flown back to the United States,
00:13:32.260
meaning, of course, you and me and everyone else pays for their transport back here.
00:13:42.700
The collection of these gang members, these violent gang members that we've seen at Seacott,
00:13:51.040
We take them out of that prison and buy an U.S. taxpayer dime flying back to the United States.
00:13:58.840
He's out of Seacott last year and sent back to their home countries of Venezuela.
00:14:07.660
They are either in Venezuela, where Bosburg has acknowledged that there won't be a way to get them back here
00:14:17.460
because of what's happening between the United States and Venezuela.
00:14:20.880
And he nonetheless wants to make sure that those people, those men who are in Venezuela,
00:14:26.280
can get some sort of remote hearing and file more paperwork related to their habeas petitions,
00:14:33.180
meaning, get out of detention, which they're not in.
00:14:37.540
I don't know how you can continue a habeas petition when you're not in U.S. custody anymore.
00:14:48.420
A new year means new financial goals, like making sure your savings are secure and diversified.
00:15:05.360
Will this be the year you finally listen to me and talk to someone from Birch Gold Group?
00:15:12.920
I appreciate their educational approach and their understanding of macroeconomics.
00:15:18.160
There are forces pushing the dollar lower and gold higher,
00:15:20.940
which is why they believe every American should own physical gold.
00:15:26.280
So, until February, if you are a first-time gold buyer,
00:15:30.900
Birch Gold is offering a rebate of up to $10,000 on qualifying purchases.
00:15:36.200
To claim eligibility and start the process, just text BANNON at 989898.
00:15:44.220
Birch Gold can help you roll an existing IRA or 401k into an IRA in gold,
00:15:50.280
and you're still eligible for a rebate of up to $10,000.
00:15:55.000
Make right now your first time to buy gold and take advantage of a rebate of up to $10,000
00:16:04.200
Text my name, BANNON, 989898, and claim your eligibility today.
00:16:14.220
You've got to the end of February, 27 February, to qualify.
00:16:28.740
Julie Kelly, I just want to make sure these habeas requests have over,
00:16:33.520
this is what's flooding DOJ right now in Minnesota and other places, habeas corpus request.
00:16:38.480
This is another lawfare technique they've got, and the lawyers can't even keep up with it.
00:16:45.340
Again, we're going to have Zoom hearings with these guys in Venezuela,
00:16:51.860
many of whom I don't even think are incarcerated down there.
00:16:58.180
They were released into Venezuela with that prisoner swap deal as part of that.
00:17:03.220
So there in Venezuela, some of them, and this was talked about in a hearing on Monday that I covered,
00:17:09.680
some of them apparently have left Venezuela and gone to other countries.
00:17:13.520
The ACLU, who's defending all these illegals, didn't exactly know where out of these 137 men,
00:17:21.160
these illegals, this pool that Bozberg has been trying to protect and get back to the U.S. for nearly a year.
00:17:31.900
What Bozberg is saying, okay, if they left Venezuela, they're a third-party country.
00:17:35.800
We are going to have taxpayers pay to have those individuals come back to the United States.
00:17:43.480
They'll be taken into custody, where, of course, then they will file more habeas claims,
00:17:48.640
claiming that they want asylum or they faced persecution, all the other excuses that we see.
00:17:56.880
Furthermore, they are going to challenge their designation under the Alien Enemies Act,
00:18:02.580
claiming, too, that they're not members of Trandaragla.
00:18:05.800
So those are for the individuals who are not in Venezuela.
00:18:09.540
Those who remained in Venezuela, and again, the ACLU still can't really say who is where.
00:18:16.220
If they're in Venezuela, Jeb Bozberg wants to hold remote hearings.
00:18:24.380
You've got, you know, whoever sitting in a hovel somewhere in Venezuela with what?
00:18:31.980
And he's going to have his lawyer there, and they're going to have an interpreter because none of these men spoke English.
00:18:38.420
And then you're going to have the DOJ on the other end.
00:18:41.400
And, of course, there's no sworn statement given.
00:18:49.440
So he doesn't care if he lies about the circumstances.
00:18:55.820
I mean, so, and the DOJ has raised all of this in their responses to Jeb Bozberg,
00:19:00.500
that not only is it logistically impossible everything that he's asking for,
00:19:06.020
but that they're out of U.S. custody and our laws and due process and constitutional protections aren't conferred to these individuals.
00:19:19.660
You know, we have reports today that illegal immigrants are taking it on their own accord to halt their habeas petitions,
00:19:33.980
And they're leaving because they see the writing on the wall, regardless of what these district court judges have done,
00:19:40.620
completely sabotage the president's immigration agenda for a year.
00:19:46.020
The higher courts are reversing them systematically.
00:19:52.740
Then you have Jeb Bozberg, the chief judge of the district court in the nation's capital,
00:19:59.260
wanting to return suspected gang members who were here illegally from Venezuela,
00:20:06.040
came here during the Biden regime, and he wants them back on U.S. soil.
00:20:12.460
And this is where, I mean, this is not even mass deportations.
00:20:15.320
These are the first bad hombres that got out of here really on President Trump's Article II powers.
00:20:19.640
Doesn't this reemphasize, and I don't know why the House hasn't moved,
00:20:23.440
to at least begin hearings on the impeachment of Bozberg.
00:20:27.580
What it shows you, the president can't try to negotiate.
00:20:39.000
They don't mind if they're hardened thugs, gang members that almost are a paramilitary operation back in the United States.
00:20:47.200
So this is why President Trump, the movement in the House, should be to impeach him.
00:20:53.200
And I mean, we've talked about this from the get-go.
00:20:55.540
They should have opened an impeachment inquiry as soon as Bozberg filed that contempt motion,
00:21:03.220
that he was going to try to hold Trump officials in contempt of that oral order,
00:21:14.160
Akash Singh, who is, I think, the Associate Attorney General, Criminal Division, very sharp guy,
00:21:24.880
He is asking prosecutors for examples of judicial bias and what they've had to deal with in these courtrooms.
00:21:32.100
And I posted, this is great, and he will collect those, and he will be fierce on that front.
00:21:39.780
However, you get it to the Republicans in Congress, they're going to sit on it.
00:21:48.740
If Hakeem Jeffries gets the devil, they will not waste a minute opening impeachment,
00:21:53.660
not just for the president, not just for top Trump officials, for Judge Aileen Cannon, for Judge Amel Bovey.
00:22:00.280
They are going to go after any judge, any judge who sided with the president over the last few years.
00:22:10.520
Where do people go to get it, hopefully get you back on tomorrow or Saturday?
00:22:14.220
Because this is breaking news, and it just shows you the president trying to work with the Democrats,
00:22:19.600
and all he does is get slapped in the face every time.
00:22:23.860
Well, Steve, you're always ahead of the game, but tomorrow is Friday, and I will be happy to be on.
00:22:29.120
The sub-stack is declassified with Julie Kelly, X, Julie underscore Kelly, too.
00:22:33.800
People can see my coverage of the hearing Monday that set up the stage for what Bossberg did today,
00:22:39.960
and his order is linked in my piece at my sub-stack.
00:22:45.520
You teed us up early in the week this was going to happen.
00:22:55.260
Let's play Neil McCabe's clip from the hearing, and then I'm going to ask him how.
00:22:58.700
By the way, I had a hearing about ICE, about Customs and Border, about Minnesota.
00:23:05.240
You had Emmer, the whip, very unusual for the House to testify, a congressman to testify.
00:23:10.900
You also had Ellison, my favorite character there.
00:23:15.620
Do you train some officers to beat somebody with a canister?
00:23:19.140
If there are only several officers holding someone down, then if you really want to...
00:23:24.440
Mr. Chairman, can I ask just a process question here?
00:23:29.060
Are the people in those videos not entitled to Fifth Amendment and Fourteenth Amendment
00:23:35.940
It seems to me that if we get to a place and time in America...
00:23:40.440
...where we have a video that is the entirety of what is guilt or not guilt, puts us in
00:23:52.080
No, we're asking for conclusions for what is the proper use of force for all agents.
00:23:55.960
But you're asking specific questions about a video.
00:24:03.460
And I just want to point out that these American citizens who are entitled to Fifth and Fourteenth
00:24:09.080
Amendment protections, and for us to make certain that we keep that in mind as we ask these
00:24:15.180
For a court of law and for any criminal proceeding, they absolutely deserve that.
00:24:20.620
That was Bernie Marino stepping into the breach against Rand Paul.
00:24:28.420
Yeah, well, there were two sort of goals the Republicans had.
00:24:32.560
You had Joni Ertz and Josh Hawley who were trying to beat up Ellison on corruption and
00:24:40.620
But then you had guys like Ron Johnson, the former chairman of the committee.
00:24:44.620
And then, as you said, Bernie Marino, who really went toe to toe with the chairman of
00:24:50.780
You know, Rand Paul was, you know, put it out that he was trying to seek some kind of middle
00:24:56.720
But obviously, we're concerned that people are being shot and killed.
00:25:00.520
But that clip you just played was, you know, Marino interrupting Rand Paul and Democrat from
00:25:07.300
Michigan, Gary Peters, who's not seeking re-election.
00:25:11.020
Basically, Rand Paul and Peters are just going frame by frame showing how Alex Pretty was shot
00:25:21.920
But I was amazed that Marino stepped up, as you said.
00:25:28.960
We had Tom Homan being a real gentleman, said nice things about Fry, nice things about Waltz.
00:25:34.600
Of course, they slapped him in the face when they took the mic later because you can't
00:25:45.980
Yeah, in the hallway after he was leaving, I asked Ellison how he would characterize his
00:25:57.700
And he said that all the other officials that came in, they would visit Minnesota, visit
00:26:03.500
Minneapolis, and no one would ever talk to him.
00:26:08.280
And he appreciated the fact that Homan was trying to work things out.
00:26:11.860
And of course, you know, as you said, afterwards, everybody got nasty.
00:26:15.540
But in that moment, Ellison was trying to be the grand gesture guy.
00:26:29.100
Yeah, I think Rand Paul was trying to sort of establish that middle lane narrative.
00:26:34.260
But Moreno, he really stepped up and sort of tipped over that apple cart.
00:26:38.960
And then Ron Johnson, former chairman of the same committee, Ron Johnson also went after
00:26:48.920
And of course, you had Tony Lyons, the acting director of ICE, who made it clear that despite
00:26:53.400
everything the Democrats are saying, there is no cooperation whatsoever with ICE and the
00:27:03.800
By the way, yesterday at the House, all they're doing is every congressman is asking for Lyons,
00:27:22.300
Look forward to getting you back on here tomorrow.
00:27:30.600
I'm going to talk about these two million jobs that were created, phony jobs, fake jobs,
00:27:36.380
The Biden regime, having stolen the presidency, they tried to steal the re-election.
00:27:42.220
We're going to walk you through how they did it.
00:27:43.480
Also talking about reality and President Trump's economic turnaround.
00:27:50.760
The End of the Dollar Empire with a qualifying purchase.
00:27:56.300
You get a free copy of the hardbound edition called the Patriots edition of The End of the Dollar Empire.
00:28:21.140
I want to tell you about this particular pharmacy because they're actually doing things right now for the American people.
00:28:31.980
If you're tired of fighting a broken system or begging for prescriptions, you need all-family pharmacy.
00:28:41.020
And the pharmacies close, you need all-family pharmacy.
00:28:45.900
If your doctor refuses to prescribe ivermectin after everything we've seen, you need all-family pharmacy.
00:28:53.500
This is a real American family business with licensed doctors, fast shipping, and the meds families rely on.
00:29:04.700
The doctor reviews it, and your meds arrive in a few days.
00:29:09.080
War Room listeners keep saying how smooth the process is and how much they love this, how grateful they are to finally have a pharmacy that gets them.
00:29:18.140
These folks at All-Family Pharmacy are breaking the control of these big pharmaceutical distribution systems.
00:29:28.840

00:29:54.380
E.J., I got such a positive feedback from many sources yesterday on your hit because somebody talked about this.
00:30:01.560
Real quickly, the fake 2.5 million jobs, folks, over really two, two-and-a-half years in the run-up, past the midterm, in the run-up to the 2024 election,
00:30:16.860
Walk me through that, sir, because people are outraged about it, and I want to figure out what you feel we have to do to get to the bottom of it.
00:30:23.220
Well, Steve, what essentially kept happening under Biden was the Bureau of Labor Statistics every month would publish these great jobs numbers,
00:30:31.740
and then over the next two months during the normal revision process, they would quietly revise those numbers down,
00:30:38.340
very consistently end by increasingly large amounts.
00:30:41.840
So it wasn't as if this was a one-off or that the errors were getting smaller over time.
00:30:49.100
And then when they would do their once-per-year benchmarking procedure, as it's called,
00:30:54.080
which is where they take very reliable UI data that has to be filed with the Labor Department per the law,
00:31:01.240
they would take that data, compare it to their previous estimates, and realize, oh, goodness, we were way off.
00:31:07.040
And again, that happened the last two years in a row.
00:31:10.660
This final one showed an overcount of 900,000 jobs in just a year.
00:31:16.800
So again, that is on top of the existing monthly revisions that we already knew about.
00:31:22.660
So you add all of this up, and over a couple years, just over a couple of years,
00:31:27.540
you see that the Biden admin overestimated their initial job figures by well over 2 million.
00:31:37.900
The Fed has been trying to make interest rate decisions based on faulty labor market data, in part.
00:31:44.360
I mean, the inflation data is, you know, there's problems with that, too, trust me.
00:31:47.860
But just sticking with the labor market data, these numbers have clearly been wrong,
00:31:55.040
And one of the things, Steve, that we discussed several times on your show
00:31:58.280
was the fact that the jobs numbers kept going up,
00:32:01.700
even though the number of people who said they were employed was basically staying flat,
00:32:09.400
And we ultimately had to attribute that to some kind of error in the data,
00:32:14.120
because all of the other possible plausible explanations,
00:32:22.380
Now, with these last two years once again being revised down,
00:32:26.840
it has basically closed the gap between those two data sets.
00:32:31.640
And so now we see that these much reduced jobs numbers are, in fact, the accurate ones.
00:32:39.000
In other words, you either had to have the survey of households catch up
00:32:45.540
And, of course, it was the latter exactly as we had predicted on your show.
00:32:54.760
That's why the audience is going crazy, because we did this for years.
00:33:01.760
What's your recommendation that needs to be done here?
00:33:04.900
Well, Steve, they have to bring the Bureau of Labor Statistics into the 21st century.
00:33:09.020
I mean, we're still trying to do these surveys as if it was 100 years ago.
00:33:14.000
So much of this data needs to just be simply automated,
00:33:18.000
and we need to actually have these systems redesigned in such a way
00:33:23.900
that it's not burdensome for employers to actually fill them out.
00:33:27.640
And you need to do – one of the things that Doge did was they got separate computer systems
00:33:34.380
You need the exact same thing here, where weekly data that is collected
00:33:38.360
in one area of the Department of Labor is actually communicated
00:33:44.460
If you actually start that kind of integration process,
00:33:48.260
you could bring this data very quickly up to date
00:33:51.320
instead of having to wait well over a year before we get accurate numbers.
00:33:58.120
There's no way to run the largest economy in the world.
00:34:02.160
E.J., give me a minute or two on the positive nature of what President Trump
00:34:07.180
and Navarre and all these people, Scott Besson, have been working on.
00:34:13.320
Of course, the mainstream business community barely covered it.
00:34:16.880
I know a lot of the hedge funds and private equity did,
00:34:26.400
In fact, it's hard to find bad news in the report.
00:34:36.300
Hopefully, that's the start of an upward trend, but whatever the case, it's welcome news.
00:34:41.300
The fact that, again, manufacturing, which has been contracting not since April,
00:34:45.340
but since January three years ago, 2023, it's nice to see that slide stop.
00:34:51.220
And again, hopefully, this is the start of an upward trajectory there.
00:34:54.860
And one of the reasons for hope is because construction was up over 30,000 jobs.
00:34:59.960
As all of this investment is pouring in to the United States, it's increasing construction,
00:35:05.420
particularly of factories, which means more manufacturing employment down the road.
00:35:23.600
We have the fewest federal bureaucrats right now since 1966.
00:35:29.120
You have to go back six decades to find a lower number than we have right now.
00:35:35.100
And that wage growth, by the way, is outpacing inflation.
00:35:39.160
So what the average American can actually buy with their weekly paycheck has grown 2% in just
00:35:49.960
And lastly, if we look at who is actually getting these jobs, once again, it is not foreign-born
00:35:56.020
Biden basically turned the American labor market into a kind of temp agency for federal
00:36:03.440
What Trump has done is, again, he has flipped that script.
00:36:07.900
All of the jobs we are adding are in the productive private sector.
00:36:14.420
Foreign-born workers actually lost jobs over the last year.
00:36:18.320
So all of the net job growth that we saw, again, has gone to native-born Americans.
00:36:23.280
So it's great when we look at who is getting the jobs, the kind of jobs they're getting,
00:36:28.360
where those jobs are, how much they're getting paid.
00:36:33.620
And I guess one last thing that's really important, too, is the fact that the labor force is growing
00:36:42.040
People who were previously sitting on their couch at home have reentered the labor force and are back looking for jobs.
00:36:49.080
And they're not only looking, they are finding those jobs.
00:36:52.640
The number of people employed jumped by several hundred thousand.
00:36:58.500
And the U-6 unemployment rate, which measures not just people who are looking but can't find a job,
00:37:04.680
but even people who are part-time but can't find a full-time job.
00:37:08.700
It includes people who aren't even looking anymore.
00:37:12.240
They're just discouraged, and they've given up looking for work, even though they would like to work.
00:37:16.400
The U-6 number also fell by several hundred thousand.
00:37:19.880
So, again, virtually everywhere you look in this report, Steve, it is good news from top to bottom.
00:37:27.860
We've told you this thing was going to turn around.
00:37:30.700
This is why they're so set on trying to shut down the government.
00:37:33.520
They want to hurt the economy and hurt President Trump.
00:37:37.200
Your Twitter feed is on fire with great statistics throughout the day.
00:37:41.320
EJ, you've called this for now, I think, three or four years in the show every month.
00:37:48.660
The Twitter feed is going to be the best place to find me, and the handle there is at real EJ Antony.
00:37:59.420
Karen Taylor-Robeson just announced she's running for governor in a Republican primary in Arizona.
00:38:10.140
We're going to work on that overnight, have more to report on that.
00:38:13.340
She's running against Andy Biggs out there in Arizona.
00:38:16.540
That's going to be a hotly contested campaign against Hobbs, the current governor.
00:38:20.840
But the primary Karen Taylor-Robeson has announced that she's putting her campaign on hold.
00:38:31.420
Kevin Posobiec has been reporting, just got out there, I guess, last night for Real America's Voice.
00:38:37.700
You're right outside the house of, I think, Nancy Guthrie.
00:38:42.280
I thought they had a white tent out there earlier.
00:38:43.960
This has turned into kind of almost a national phenomenon like the Lindbergh kidnapping.
00:38:54.320
So, yeah, directly behind me, this is the scene of the crime.
00:38:58.400
And, you know, just last week, that archway is where we got the video, okay, of the suspect trying to remove the camera.
00:39:09.480
And to my side there is a Pima County sheriff truck, okay?
00:39:19.180
It's mostly quiet and cozy, but at nighttime, it does get very, very dark around here.
00:39:25.160
There's no street lights, and, you know, you can see the stars like you've never seen before.
00:39:30.680
But it's also, you know, riddled with coyotes, scorpions, rattlesnakes, and, you know, a possible cartel, too.
00:39:38.120
Why is the – before we get to the cartel, why is the sheriff – it looks like the sheriff and the FBI are not working together,
00:39:46.600
In fact, turn the camera – the whole world's media is theirs, right?
00:39:50.100
This is one of the biggest stories in the world.
00:39:53.620
We've gotten on people before for not giving updates.
00:40:05.180
Well, we have a bunch of local – we have basically every media company in Arizona,
00:40:11.400
and even the major news companies, and the one that Savannah Guthrie worked for.
00:40:17.160
So – well, still works for it, but still, I've seen everybody you could think of down here.
00:40:25.780
You've got locals coming together, giving flowers, and, you know, passing by, walking their dogs.
00:40:32.260
So, yeah, the great point is that, you know, you've got the Pima County Sheriff's truck there.
00:40:42.120
Has anybody asked why the – because Tucson's a very democratic town, very progressive,
00:40:47.360
because it's got a huge – it has a huge university there, University of Arizona.
00:40:51.680
Why are we not getting updates from official authorities?
00:40:54.880
Why are we going to you and CNN's going to Jake Tapper and you're talking to sources?
00:41:04.860
In fact, it took us 10 days to get the footage.
00:41:08.000
It looked like, you know, some of those – that classic Mexican wrestlers coming there, right?
00:41:17.260
Well, I think it's taken so long because, honestly, they got nothing, but they want to take credit for everything.
00:41:22.040
I mean, these guys – this is the land of Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday.
00:41:29.380
And they're taking – they're looking for hair follicles that probably blew away in tumbleweeds, you know, a couple days ago by now.
00:41:34.760
They're trying to get fingerprints from little gloves, you know, a week later.
00:41:38.700
But, you know, they're trying to measure how tall this guy was, and they can't even measure bricks and get a good estimate here.
00:41:44.380
So, this guy, Nanos, Sheriff Nanos is – you know, he's a tenured officer here, and what he's trying to do is just basically, you know, say, oh, I don't need any of your help.
00:42:00.560
I mean, this guy's gunning to get a statue built up of him, you know, a decade from now when he retires, when really we should have people like – aviators like Howard Hughes.
00:42:14.020
We're going to have you back on in the morning show tomorrow.
00:42:16.180
We're going to start in Arizona about Robeson dropping out of this race or at least putting her – I shouldn't say drop out.
00:42:21.920
Putting her campaign on hold, which is tantamount, I think, to dropping out given how heated it is.
00:42:28.860
You can follow me on X and Instagram at Kevin Pasobey.
00:42:32.660
And, yeah, we're digging into local resources here, getting the talk of the town, and I'm looking forward to visiting the other sites and also the sheriff's department to see if I can get in touch with the public affairs officers there.
00:42:50.600
Doc Holliday and Wyatt Earp are not just legends.
00:42:55.980
So don't be coming – don't be bringing this Philadelphia smack talk, you know, criticizing Wyatt Earp and, you know, saying things about Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday.
00:43:07.680
Of course, it's Kevin Pasobey, and we're going to have Kevin back on the show tomorrow.
00:43:13.160
Andy Biggs running against Karen Taylor-Robeson.
00:43:16.120
She's just announced, Blockbuster News, she's put her race on hold.
00:43:21.580
I think the Ken Paxton versus Cornyn and Andy Biggs versus Karen Robeson are the two biggest primaries, I think, in the country on the Republican side.
00:43:34.800
We're going to talk about the Chinese Communist Party.
00:43:38.700
Not enough on the existential threat that faces us.
00:43:50.340
They just announced the Black Friday 30% off sale, the biggest sale of the year.
00:43:55.700
The most impressive health and nutrition products in the industry are now 30% off, like Lean, the doctor-formulated weight loss supplement for people who want to lose meaningful weight without injections.
00:44:09.280
Lean, the doctor-formulated weight loss supplement for people who want to lose meaningful weight without injections.
00:44:19.420
Creatine, designed just for women to help you look leaner, in shape, and tone without extra dieting or exercise.
00:44:27.860
Even 30% off, Field of Greens, the only super fruit and vegetable drink shown in a university study to actually slow aging.
00:44:36.060
And only Field of Greens promises better health results.
00:44:41.640
Every Brickhouse product, from better sleep to superior collagen, is 30% off.
00:44:47.200
But hurry, because these Black Friday deals go fast.
00:45:06.920
Scott Coburn joins me, Chief Marketing Officer, Chief Marketing Officer of Patriot Mobile.
00:45:13.880
So we've wanted to do a lot on the Chinese Communist Party because they're the existential threat, but we've been taking so much time up on this Iran situation.
00:45:23.320
We've got Forrest and Ava from New Federal State.
00:45:27.380
I just wanted this whole thing of purges, Xi consolidating power, or he's about to be overthrown.
00:45:33.540
It's a question inside the community of not just Lao Bajing, but the analyst.
00:45:41.660
I think this report has been on, and I loved it because the event has happened more than two weeks now.
00:45:47.500
And we're very disappointed, but to be frankly, we didn't see any sharp analysis done by the Western, by the people so-called understanding the CCP.
00:45:55.740
The reason why this is a historical inflection point.
00:45:59.560
And never before in the funding of the CCP for almost over 100 years, this is the first time the top-tier PLA professional military commander has been purged.
00:46:15.940
If you look at the highest commander organ of the PLA, which is called CMC, Central Military Commission, seven people right now, only five left.
00:46:26.640
The last two generals, General Zhang and General Liu, was the rare generals who had a real combat experience.
00:46:35.700
So look at two people sitting at the table who left.
00:46:46.260
And the other general, another person who is remaining on CMC, Zhang Shemin, is also a layman.
00:46:57.580
It's really the most fracture, the weakest point of the PLA ever before.
00:47:03.700
So we think this is a wind-up-the-window of opportunity for the West to really leverage these opportunities and to basically end the CCP regime.
00:47:13.300
Because remember, General Zhang Yuxia thought Americans helped to end this regime.
00:47:28.300
And we're yet to see the Western commentator analyst to speak about this.
00:47:35.640
Forrest, does Lao Baixing in the mainland, give me a minute, does Lao Baixing know what's going on here?
00:47:42.380
Lao Baixing doesn't know because this is where they're going to seal the inflammation.
00:47:46.800
This is why our truths are so shadow banned on X.
00:47:52.380
So it's ridiculously low in terms of the viewership.
00:47:55.500
So that's why the Beijing, the people who are living in China, they're looking for an exit.
00:48:00.920
Given the economic situation and given the elite infighting, that's why we think this is a perfect window of opportunity for the Western to strike the CCP.
00:48:10.460
If you want to end this zero-sum game, this is the moment to act in history.
00:48:14.920
Forrest, where do people go for new federal state news?
00:48:19.540
They can find us on Getter, which is NFSC Speaks, and also Getter, NFSC TV.
00:48:29.600
I want to get you guys back on tomorrow, Saturday.
00:48:37.380
Scott Coburn, we have something new to talk about.
00:48:41.560
And, in fact, you know, we talk all the time about the great cell phone service we provide for our customers.
00:48:46.920
And we're always looking for new and better ways for our customers to stay connected.
00:48:52.780
This guy right here is our Patriot Mobile Connect product.
00:49:00.280
This little guy right here is a carrier agnostic.
00:49:03.780
What that means is you throw it in your backpack, you throw it in your car, you're driving down the road, you're moving city to city, state to state.
00:49:10.480
It's going to always pick up the strongest tower.
00:49:14.620
And your service goes off all the three major providers, right?
00:49:22.200
But the data plans that come with this guy are a lot cheaper than what you get on your phone.
00:49:26.080
And, again, it's hitting all the towers, not just one set of towers.
00:49:29.280
So if we call 972-PATRIOT, and that's what you should talk to, what do you get, a person with an East Texas accent?
00:49:41.420
Is this something you add to your plan, or how do you physically get this?
00:49:45.740
These things sell for $149, and we'll ship them right to you.
00:49:51.320
So when you're using this little guy, or you got all your family tethered up to this, or your friends, or wherever you are, you're not sucking all the data off your cell phone.
00:49:59.540
Your data's coming out of here, and that preserves your plan, your data plan here on your cell phone.
00:50:05.480
You go to PatriotMobile.com forward slash Bannon, and you can order online.
00:50:09.160
Or you can call 972-PATRIOT and tell them you want to learn more about the Patriot Mobile Connect product.
00:50:18.880
How does it feel working here with the stories?
00:50:22.560
