00:00:17.360 had a belly full of it i know you don't like hearing that i know you try to do everything

00:00:24.700 like that go to share the big line mega media i wish in my soul i wish that any of these people
00:00:32.520 had a conscience ask yourself what is my task and what is my purpose if that answer is to save my
00:00:40.460 country this country will be saved war room here's your host stephen k band
00:00:47.680 it is wednesday 25 february in the year of our lord 2026 historic last night was a historic moment
00:01:01.820 that was not a speech it was much more in the speech the totality of it it's only president trump and his
00:01:08.360 team can do the totality of it and it gets back to there's no persuadables in this country they're
00:01:15.660 the sides are lined up it's how you turn them out and last night he he reinforced that this is a base
00:01:22.760 election we're down here in texas we can see what the democrats are doing they get the joke on their
00:01:27.760 side and last night the president could not have put a bigger contrast and highlight you're either for
00:01:34.380 this country you're for this republic you're for what's been bequeathed to us that like every
00:01:40.980 generation we're supposed to make it uh as as as as better than than it was and do as much work to
00:01:48.900 pass it down to future generations that's the superpower of the united states is a group of
00:01:53.780 working class and middle class people that is founding were kicked out as bill murray said in that
00:02:00.480 movie kicked out every decent country in europe and uh and came here and uh had a shot with the
00:02:08.260 little guy never had a shot and created the greatest superpower that created more wealth freed more
00:02:14.060 people fought more wars for other folks never in history has this ever happened that's the genius of
00:02:21.680 this country but the greeks called the genius and last night the two sides and he called them out he
00:02:29.060 set a trap and called them out in front of the nation and the world and they sat there the big dumb
00:02:35.140 smiles on their face you see roqana dude you just got blown up mark kelly blown up they knew they
00:02:43.000 were getting blown up of course the the and and omar ought to be deported to to to this morning denaturalized
00:02:50.480 and deported or put in prison denaturalized put in prison then deported later but she was a great prop
00:02:56.280 last night yelling and screaming her and taib that's that optics is amazing dr navarro on the nuts and bolts
00:03:04.140 of it on tariffs on the economic policies that i know you work daily to assist the president in
00:03:09.760 your assessment last night of uh of not just what the work that went into it but how you think it
00:03:15.140 came across sir steve uh to use one of your terms of master class uh what concerns me is how
00:03:25.060 since 2016 the democrats have debased our institutions in this country the idea that they
00:03:34.540 would walk into that chamber sit on their hands or or misbehave and get thrown out in the face of what
00:03:43.840 has been a miraculous turnaround in our economy and our national security i think should stun
00:03:52.500 people and here's what we're in a race to november steve between expectations and reality and i want
00:04:00.980 to give you a a little example from yesterday when consumer confidence came out what does that have
00:04:09.960 to do with the state of the union simply this the key number in consumer confidence yesterday
00:04:17.340 was the expectation of people that inflation is going to run at about four and a half percent now
00:04:25.000 think about that we're in a world where inflation the inflation rate is dramatically downshifting and
00:04:30.600 we're down close to a two percent target so what that suggests is a wide gap between expectations
00:04:38.840 and reality and it's that gap that the democrats are precisely going to try to exploit going into
00:04:46.880 november they're going to sit on their hands and stonewall and then call us murderers when the reality
00:04:55.600 is a far cry from that expectation but people it's almost like people during the biden years had ptsd
00:05:03.660 because they got so beaten down by everything that was thrown at them whether it was that was the
00:05:10.140 inflation surge whether it was losing their jobs or getting murdered by the aliens or or whether it was
00:05:18.660 it was simply the world falling apart with with lucha example in afghanistan and so what we have to do
00:05:27.040 and what the president did very very well last night is continue to explain to the american people
00:05:34.800 what he is doing and how it is making things significantly better and he keeps saying and i think this is
00:05:44.780 110 percent right that if kamala harris had been elected instead of him this country would be done
00:05:53.420 over but it's a 50 50 country it's more like a 60 40 country no no cnn cnn cnn had it and they tried
00:06:03.240 to lie about it they said the thing 64 65 percent of the american people they did the flash poll agree
00:06:08.840 with what trump's saying this is this is a two-thirds one-third president trump called them out to their
00:06:13.560 face and said and said you you know this from the you know this from the green bay sweep he called them
00:06:18.220 out to their face that they can't cheat the reason they're not backing the bill they can't cheat they
00:06:23.020 can't win he called them out to their face and they just sat there with a big grin he called them
00:06:28.520 out if you don't if they don't he says the reason they don't back the the save america act is obvious
00:06:33.500 they don't want voter id they don't want the purge of the voter rolls they don't want to stop the
00:06:40.180 abuses of mail-in ballots because as we say on this show over and over again if you can't cheat you can't
00:06:46.380 win and then john solomon's got all this new information that's coming out non-stop about the j6 committee
00:06:51.140 working with the white house and doj this is why you and i went to prison and i'm proud of it now
00:06:56.620 than ever because you saw the demons these are demons and criminals the j6 committee are a group
00:07:02.840 of criminals the senior members of the justice department were a series of criminals the white
00:07:08.540 house had a series of criminals there and in that audience last night were criminals they're criminals
00:07:14.560 all of it there's nothing to debate here it's not open for debate anymore it's only one side's going
00:07:22.140 to win and one side's going to lose and the way you win is you got to put your muscle into the field
00:07:27.180 and get everybody you have to we have to have now truly an army of the awaken because i don't believe
00:07:34.020 peter you made a very profound statement at the top trump's supposed to be a disruptor he's supposed
00:07:39.020 to be the destroyer he's the one that's rejuvenating and saving these institutions without trumpet craters
00:07:45.860 because they're anarchists they're marxist you said that that you couldn't believe how that you use the
00:07:53.320 word debased and normally you and i talk about debase when we talk about a currency they're debasing
00:07:59.500 american life they're debasing this american republic they're debasing everything that every generation
00:08:05.220 in this country for what 14 15 16 generations have passed down to the other generation they want
00:08:12.420 to destroy it all and it's manifested in the 20 to 25 million illegal aliens they brought in this country
00:08:18.840 and they couldn't stand when trump said not my administration not me donald trump not dhs the
00:08:25.420 american government's number one priority is to protect american citizens and not illegal aliens can you
00:08:32.560 please stand and show your support and they sat there called out walked into a trap and called out
00:08:39.080 by the commander-in-chief the president united states the chief magistrate and the chief law enforcement
00:08:44.540 officer of this republic dr navara omar steve we've got to get to the bottom of omar because omar
00:08:55.960 symbolizes so much that is very wrong with the democrat ideology including the open borders without
00:09:06.280 restraint what has to happen with omar i mean there's no way that you honestly acquire 30 or 40 or 50
00:09:16.920 million dollars of wealth when you come from and i'm going to use the word donald trump uses a whole
00:09:24.840 country like somalia which has essentially no government and they're a bunch of pirates they
00:09:32.440 are that's that's their culture that's their organizational culture they're pirates and i think
00:09:39.600 what really needs to happen with with omar and her husband and her brother who she married
00:09:45.160 is there needs to be a very thorough follow the money investigation from the time she got here and the
00:09:53.240 time when your brother and her husband got here and figure out exactly how you acquire so much wealth
00:10:00.920 and and the other part of that is the whole insider trading of these pirates in congress like nancy
00:10:08.440 pelosi i mean think about that steve the speaker of the friggin house becomes a multi multi multi
00:10:17.240 millionaire many times over peter schweitzer and i did this the misery of the pandemic gone down
00:10:24.200 yeah i mean talk about defacing our institutions my buddy that's wrong schweitzer did this years ago
00:10:31.800 maybe we'll take an hour and break that down nancy pelosi actually became wealthy dr navarre we got a
00:10:37.400 punch i know you got to go back to work magnificent job tell everybody at the white house incredible the
00:10:42.760 symbolism all coming together in what is a historic moment it was not a speech it's not the state of
00:10:48.680 the union it was so much more than that it will be remembered in history uh there's certain railhead
00:10:53.400 moments that president trump's had uh in his career as uh as stepping into the political arena and away
00:11:00.760 from being a businessman this was certainly one of them the greatest uh state of the union ever because
00:11:06.680 it it showed to the nation and to the world exactly what he's up against right the enemies of this
00:11:14.040 republic the enemies of the constitutional order the enemies of our country that's what the democratic
00:11:21.880 party the neo-marxist jihadist democratic party that's where they are in the face of that is omar in uh
00:11:28.520 talib uh dr navarre where do people go to get all these clips you're putting out all this great content

00:11:50.200 three weeks that are going to defend and protect american workers in the manufacturing base and do it in a
00:11:56.920 way which is going to throw the burden and costs on them not us the peter navarre.com keep

00:12:22.760 other people in prison too those heroes and patriots in georgia which we're going to get to the bottom
00:12:30.520 of the stealing of the 2020 election and not steve bannon saying the commander in chief the president
00:12:35.320 of these united states last night in the house in front of the world told them if they don't cheat
00:12:42.920 they can't win where have you heard that before i think you heard this on this show the president
00:12:48.680 united states understands it to the marriage because you understand what went on

00:12:57.960 back fonnie willis john solomon say everybody take that take those stories and push them out
00:13:05.320 in collusion with jane with uh jamie raskin and liz cheney and nancy pelosi the j6 committee

00:13:19.560 any of those scumbags and the white house what people told you all along that they were in collusion
00:13:26.760 and working together and fonnie willis down in fulton county because they thought they had trump
00:13:31.640 they're going to get him on some state charges and game down there with one of those rig juries and a
00:13:36.040 rig judge and send him to prison to die this is this is this is the stakes here this is not we're not
00:13:44.760 talking about marginal tax rates or difference in education policy
00:13:52.440 this is actually even deeper than war and peace why this is a war for this country this is about an
00:13:59.000 enemy within that is festered
00:14:03.320 and now is parasitic
00:14:04.920 if he's prepared to stand in that breach and call it out are you prepared to have his back
00:14:12.520 with all his faults and things he's not doing i get it i get it it's not perfect
00:14:18.440 that's why it's a human institution and he's a man
00:14:21.880 where none of us are perfect but you know what it's damn good enough
00:14:25.880 as sure as the turning of the earth if we do not destroy root and branch these marxists this culture
00:14:36.840 this color revolution now in this time and place and not wait and not pass it on

00:16:24.120 from home after she was found in a horrific situation in maryland a left-wing judge refused

00:17:18.760 and thank you for your great bravery and who can believe that we're even speaking about things
00:17:26.840 like this 15 years ago if somebody was up here and said that they say what's wrong with him
00:17:34.040 but now we have to say it because it's going on all over numerous states without even telling the parents
00:17:41.160 but surely we can all agree no state can be allowed to rip children from their parents arms and transition
00:17:47.560 them to a new gender against the parents to a new gender against the parents will who would believe
00:17:51.400 that we've been talking about we must ban it and we must ban it immediately
00:18:06.360 look nobody stands up these people are crazy i'm telling you they're crazy
00:18:24.040 amazing
00:18:27.000 oil boy we're lucky we have a country with people like this democrats are destroying our country but we've
00:18:33.960 stopped it just in the nick of time didn't we
00:18:46.920 deeper than dei you know separate from the invasion of the southern border so many issues of where they
00:18:53.480 are debasing our institution destroying the country as dr navarro said uh this and i'm bringing it
00:19:00.520 uh terry shilling and terry you and brandon show walter and some of the authors over with uh tony lyons
00:19:07.080 sheila matthews at ablechild a handful of voices years ago started warning people about this and at
00:19:15.160 first it was too crazy even to think about and last night one of the centerpieces of president trump and
00:19:19.960 something that's so emotionally said if you're not saying these people are crazy and they will destroy
00:19:24.600 the nation on this topic sir terry shilling tell me why was that such an important moment in this
00:19:32.600 speech this historic like i said name of speech this historic moment last night this historic event
00:19:38.520 last night why was this one of the key centerpieces sir well steve i think if i were to boil it all down
00:19:45.160 is that the democrats and the trans the four and a half billion dollar transgender industry
00:19:51.080 have been deceiving the american people this industry is built on deceit and what president
00:19:56.440 trump is he is stopping the deceit which is what we need to do he is exposing the lies you know steve
00:20:01.800 this happened in 2021 sage blair uh was basically kidnapped from her parents by the state away from
00:20:09.000 them because they wouldn't turn her into a boy or give her sterilization drugs they lied to us they told
00:20:15.320 us that kids don't get sex changed in this country we don't do that parents aren't losing custody
00:20:20.440 over their children over that it was all lies and steve the the big problem is is that when it comes
00:20:26.200 to deceit it's worse than lying because there's a purpose behind it and when it comes to the transgender
00:20:31.560 industry the purpose behind it is to destroy the country by destroying the family and destroying the
00:20:37.320 future of our country by destroying our children our children should be protected at all costs i cannot be
00:20:45.320 more grateful for president trump and everything he's done for the movement to protect our children
00:20:51.080 from this evil industry steve he's exactly right these democrats that support this stuff that have
00:20:57.560 been lying to us and deceiving us are evil they are crazy in what world do we give kids sex changes in what
00:21:06.680 world do we take them away from their parents when the parents say you're not sterilizing my children
00:21:12.040 and in what world do the schools think that they have the right to do this to children this is the
00:21:18.040 democratic platform they think that your children belong to them not you as a parent and that's what
00:21:24.200 i'm so grateful for president trump but steve this was the biggest platform ever given to any of these
00:21:30.280 parents that have lost custody this is just one case by the way steve i think it's important for you
00:21:35.080 for the posse to understand that this is one case out of hundreds there are hundreds of parents across
00:21:41.880 the country that have lost custody there's a parent actually that i know of that went bankrupt
00:21:47.560 they had to decide not to no longer fight this case in court because all of their money got sucked
00:21:52.440 up by legal fees this is what the dems do they will destroy you if they oppose them and so we have
00:21:58.280 them beat though we have the president united states we have to make sure though that this this crazy
00:22:03.640 language democrats need to be branded as crazy and the transgender industry is the best way to paint
00:22:10.600 them is crazy because trump said what everyone says in their minds when they hear about kids
00:22:15.240 getting sex changes these people are crazy that shows you how deeply dark it is where do we stand
00:22:23.720 because a lot of people think hey president trump came in and we had all these executive orders had
00:22:27.160 this thing you know tennessee shut down or certain hospitals i know a lot of people are saying hey it
00:22:31.640 was such a great job you guys did with the terry shillings in the world the president trump's taking
00:22:35.720 care of the transgender things over and i said i don't think it's over i think we're making dents
00:22:40.280 on it but this is so deeply rooted they could not stand up this president trump he got angry he says
00:22:47.480 look at these people they're crazy on something based on this where do we stand right now where are
00:22:52.600 you guys taking this and what do we need to get back to you because if you don't get rid of this
00:22:57.720 this is a this is one of these deep festering uh issues that's to the core of the radical this is the
00:23:04.120 marxists that there are no men and women there there are no genders there are there is no family
00:23:09.640 they're using this to destroy the family structure which the bolsheviks have always needed the cultural
00:23:16.120 revolution with the chinese communist party the bolsheviks the core is always the family the
00:23:21.560 underpinnings of the judeo-christian west and the family that's what they have to shatter and this is
00:23:26.840 the tool they're using to do it so where do we stand in this fight what do we have to do to have
00:23:31.000 your back and president trump's back so where we stay in this fight is essentially trump has
00:23:37.400 by what trump did what an rfk jr by the way also was critical to this is they basically said that
00:23:44.440 for hospitals to remain eligible for medicaid funding they can no longer perform any type of
00:23:49.960 transgender procedures hormone administration or anything like that it's been hugely beneficial and
00:23:56.280 that's why you see these lists of all these hospitals announcing that they're closing these clinics steve
00:24:01.240 they're just leaving the clinics there they're not demolishing the clinics right we need to demolish
00:24:05.720 these clinics they need to be no longer existing no longer standing but what they're doing is they're
00:24:10.360 just locking the door and waiting for us to lose elections they want a new president because uh gavin
00:24:17.080 newsom uh kamala harris any of these types that are coming up a james tallarico they will give so much
00:24:23.640 more funding to these transgender programs it will make your head spin they are waiting playing the waiting
00:24:29.720 game this is a four and a half billion dollar industry so in all there's 27 states by the way
00:24:34.120 that have banned these procedures for minors but in states like california new york and illinois they're
00:24:39.240 keeping this going because they passed what they call blue shield laws and that allows them to mail
00:24:45.160 puberty blockers wrong sex hormones into the red states that protect their children they're playing
00:24:50.600 the waiting game steve they've taken over the institutions the american medical association
00:24:55.400 the american academy of pediatrics they still have power there they're waiting for us to lose the
00:25:01.320 white house and to lose congress and then they're going to ramp it back up steve what we need to do is
00:25:05.720 twofold first of all we need to get on the phone to get john thune to hold a vote to ban sex change
00:25:11.960 procedures for minors in the senate you see how much those democrats were squirming in their seats there

00:35:34.360 Thank you.
00:35:53.360 Brian Kennedy joins me, one of our deepest thinkers on the MAGA side, one of our true public intellectuals.
00:36:21.180 Brian, last night in the highest and high relief, the heroism and patriotism of the best of our country, this republic, and this deep pit of this cauldron of Marxism and chaos and anarchy and just absolutely everything anti-American.
00:36:47.660 Sir, your thoughts?
00:36:49.140 Well, great to be with you, Steve.
00:36:51.920 Yes, I thought it was a perfect evening.
00:36:54.560 I thought that was President Trump's greatest speech of all time because it was both brilliantly partisan, given the fact that the audience was, as you say, full of Marxists.
00:37:07.540 But he, rhetorically, President Trump was saying to the American people last night, you have a nation of heroes.
00:37:17.820 Let me describe and present some awards to those heroes.
00:37:21.660 This is the kind of country you have that create men like this and women like this.
00:37:27.540 And that was a signal to the American people that you shouldn't be down in the dumps about anything.
00:37:34.280 You should be looking up at these heroes.
00:37:36.360 This is who we're fighting for.
00:37:38.140 You have a nation of heroes.
00:37:39.540 And I am your champion, Donald Trump, against the communists and illegal aliens who would seek to destroy this nation and our way of life.
00:37:49.940 I thought he did that beautifully throughout the speech.
00:37:54.720 He wove in throughout the speech these heroes from National Guardsmen to an Olympic gold medalist.
00:38:05.460 He even gave Hollenbeck the Presidential Medal of Freedom, a goalie, who did a brilliant job, by the way.
00:38:14.500 But the Medal of Honor winners, here are men who stood up for their country, who did great things for their country.
00:38:21.620 And he showed to the United States that this is the kind of country you have.
00:38:26.780 And I'm going to defend it.
00:38:28.420 And I'm going to defend it against these crazy people on the American left who would seek to destroy it.
00:38:34.380 But in that regard, I'd be surprised if historians don't call this the nation of heroes speech.
00:38:40.360 It was so perfectly written and delivered by the president.
00:38:44.340 And I thought Jim Rickards was right.
00:38:46.260 The theatrics were perfect.
00:38:48.500 But the message to the American people, I think, was profound.
00:38:52.820 And he was showing you what was at stake if we don't continue to win.
00:38:57.480 And I thought the president did a brilliant job.
00:38:59.880 I thought the one big takeaway I had was partly, you know, the Iran stuff that we talked about earlier with Rickards.
00:39:09.040 It does look like we're on path to go to war in Iran.
00:39:13.640 But I think the president laid it out in such a way as to tell the American people, I'm doing this for us.
00:39:20.400 This is not for Israel.
00:39:22.040 This is not for anybody else in the Middle East.
00:39:24.860 This is for the United States.
00:39:26.940 We have to make sure the United States is defended against these people in Iran who would seek to destroy us.
00:39:35.800 And I thought that was a very important moment, too.
00:39:39.160 He didn't mention anybody else.
00:39:41.140 It's not about liberating Iran and liberating the people of Iran.
00:39:45.440 It's about making sure the American people are defended against any enemy who would seek to destroy us.
00:39:53.600 And given the capabilities of Iran today, they have ballistic missiles that are capable if you launch them from a ship against the United States.
00:40:04.280 They have that capacity already today.
00:40:07.100 And if they can combine that with a nuclear warhead, then you could see Iran in very short order, not 2035, as some people mentioned, but in very short order, having the capacity to destroy the United States.
00:40:24.040 And so I thought that was an important feature of the speech, too.
00:40:26.520 So I've got limited time and I do want to get you back on because I may have some disagreements with that.
00:40:34.380 But I have enough respect for you that and the others that take that point of view that I want to have on and we'll work through with the you know, we put the the treat of Parsis on here and we put the current mills is on here.
00:40:44.520 But people don't realize that Brian's been with us from the beginning.
00:40:48.760 He's one of the heaviest weights of public intellectuals.
00:40:51.500 And people don't understand what Brian does behind the scenes on everything from like fighting the stolen election.
00:40:57.040 But Brian's always somebody who comes in and rolls his sleeves up.
00:40:59.640 He's not just sitting there thinking great thoughts.
00:41:02.480 I want to go back to something.
00:41:03.820 Why Brian Kennedy?
00:41:05.580 Steve Bannon's hair is on fire, running around, yelling, screaming to a microphone.
00:41:09.220 You're very different.
00:41:09.900 You're kind of one of the sources of stability for the MAGA movement, particularly intellectually.
00:41:14.520 Just give me a minute or two.
00:41:16.440 We only got two, but give me give me two minutes on why you say in your discernment and judgment that this was President Trump's greatest speech.
00:41:28.520 Well, look at the moment we're in, Steve.
00:41:30.460 Thank you for that, too, by the way.
00:41:32.200 But look at the moment we're in.
00:41:33.520 We have states in the Union that are in open rebellion to the United States government and our efforts to try to deport 25 million illegal aliens.
00:41:45.740 Part of that part of that part of that group there on the left, they're supporting that open rebellion.
00:41:50.840 We're in a virtual state of civil war.
00:41:54.380 And the president, instead of trying to, you know, trying to ameliorate things, he divided the country in ways that were extremely useful in politics.
00:42:04.860 It's useful to divide people if the other side has become unreasonable.
00:42:10.960 Here's President Trump with his common sense saying, are you willing to stand up and put the American people before illegal aliens?
00:42:20.680 And, you know, that takes a lot of courage to do, actually, in this kind of a speech.
00:42:26.920 An everyday speech, you can maybe pull it off.
00:42:30.120 In this kind of a speech, that took amazing courage to be that openly partisan, demonstrating how the Democratic Party has been given over to Marxists, communists, and people who would seek to destroy the American way of life.
00:42:46.060 And so I was extremely proud of the president for being that forceful in that presentation.
00:42:53.340 A lot of times, you know, the pundits in the mainstream media think this is a movement for dignity and bringing the country together.
00:43:03.220 The country is not together today.
00:43:05.560 The country, part of it, is an open rebellion to the common sense policies of enforcing U.S. immigration law.
00:43:12.880 They brought in 25 million people illegally, and now they seek to keep them here in this country, and President Trump is simply not going to have it.
00:43:23.620 And so that kind of forcefulness from the president last night, I thought, was just perfect.
00:43:29.480 And as I say, I'm extremely proud of him for doing that.
00:43:32.780 Brian, where do they get you on social media, sir?
00:43:34.880 We get a bounce.
00:43:35.840 Fantastic.

00:45:23.920 Okay, I want to thank – Mark Beal joins us.
00:45:29.400 Mark, I want to thank you.
00:45:31.260 We have a huge topic we have to talk about.
00:45:33.680 This is this anthropic issue with Pete Hexas and the Department of War.
00:45:37.600 Very complicated, but the American people have to understand this.
00:45:40.560 Mark is going to join us tomorrow because we're going to need time to walk you through this.
00:45:44.000 However, Mark, my phone is blown up this morning.
00:45:47.880 The dog that didn't bark – because we're in the – people should know.
00:45:52.640 Behind the scenes, there's a massive fight going on in the imperial capital about artificial intelligence.
00:45:58.420 Mark Beal, last night, correct me if I'm wrong, the dog didn't bark.
00:46:02.980 President Trump's entire thing of artificial intelligence virtually was saying that I'm passing –
00:46:09.760 I'm going to do executive orders.
00:46:11.420 You're not going to pay for the data center's electricity or the water.
00:46:16.100 There was no ringing of the tech bro's position on unregulated artificial intelligence, sir.
00:46:24.560 Yeah, hey, Steve.
00:46:25.560 It was remarkable in that sense.
00:46:27.500 Given the messaging really since day one of this administration on the importance of accelerating AI,
00:46:34.400 I was expecting the president to kind of really lean in and make the case to the American people
00:46:39.180 as to why the policy agenda that he's pursuing is the right one.
00:46:44.880 And then about a week ago, I even heard the vice president on Fox News talking, in my view,
00:46:49.700 in my sense, the first time sort of more about the downsides and the tail risks of AI.
00:46:54.340 So I don't know if this is like a bit of a sea change for this administration where they've realized that on the campaign trail in the midterms this year,
00:47:01.720 it's not great politics to be kind of talking about AI and all these various things that are kind of uncontrolled and unregulated.
00:47:08.500 And so I thought it was very notable that the president didn't really lean into AI and instead just basically told the American people that,
00:47:15.560 look, we understand that we're going to be building these data centers and we're going to make sure that you,
00:47:20.360 the working class, are not going to be the ones that are footing the bill for the tech industry.
00:47:25.020 I thought that was a very important message for what it said and for what it didn't say.
00:47:29.300 Given the knife fight, and people understand it's a knife fight behind the scenes,
00:47:33.560 given the knife fight beyond the scenes of what you and Brendan and all these other people,
00:47:37.920 these heroes, Max, Talmar, everybody's working on every day.
00:47:41.400 It was pretty stunning, was it not?
00:47:44.040 Absolutely.
00:47:45.440 Because you're absolutely right.
00:47:47.080 It is an intense and escalating war on Capitol Hill over the future of our policy toward this incredibly important
00:47:54.980 and powerful technology.
00:47:56.800 It is bare knuckled, just knock down, drag out, winner take all.
00:48:01.580 And nobody seems to be backing down on this.
00:48:05.060 And I think the president, you know, in his speech is reflecting that fact that there isn't a lot of consensus here.
00:48:10.480 There's a lot of fear.
00:48:11.260 There's a lot of anxiety in the American people.
00:48:13.320 And they're scared and they want to see, you know, the government have a plan for how it is it's going to help ensure
00:48:19.500 that as this disruption happens, that people aren't left behind in ways that I think echo the discussions around free trade in the 1990s,
00:48:29.280 where the middle class and the working families were kind of left behind
00:48:32.120 and big businesses were kind of given for a carte blanche access to kind of to move forward
00:48:37.680 and leave other people kind of holding the bag.
00:48:40.300 We cannot let this happen with AI.
00:48:41.720 I think AI is here to stay.
00:48:43.880 We have to deal with it.
00:48:44.620 There can be an amazing upsides to this, but we have to make sure that AI is serving human flourishing,
00:48:49.660 serving the working class, serving the American people, and not just the interests of a few folks in Silicon Valley.
00:48:55.220 Mark, where do people go?
00:48:56.460 I want to immerse everybody in this topic.
00:48:58.480 Where do they go to get information about your organization and about your thoughts on this on social media also?

00:49:49.000 Colleague, your thoughts on this moment in history, not even a speech, but this event that took place last night, sir.
00:49:56.920 I thought it was epic.
00:49:59.140 And I told him that it was I was remember I said the day before I was hoping he pushed the SAVE Act.
00:50:06.080 I think he showed where the Democrats how shameful it was that they didn't stand when we're talking about America first.
00:50:12.640 I thought it was laid out so beautiful.

00:50:27.320 I don't know anything that I would have changed as a marketer.
