Bannon's War Room - Episode 5221： Pentagon Has Sights On Globalist Bankers For Defense Unit; Stopping All Immigration

00:00:00.000 is we're trying to take some innovative steps to ensure that when we find criminal fraud,

00:00:03.620 we can actually prosecute it all the way to the end.

00:00:06.960 She wanted one question. She's over here and you guys are over there. 0.96

00:00:11.560 Where's your main camera? Is it this one? Which one is the main camera?

00:00:16.180 Okay, good. Nice center. Good. I thought it was that one. Go ahead.

00:00:19.640 Mr. President, Mary Barry with Daily Wire, not CNN.

00:00:22.480 We just wanted to ask about PHS. Still not funded, but we reported earlier today that

00:00:27.280 80% of the primary task force that boasts to go on investing in terrorism is working without pay.

00:00:32.940 So should that impact the Democrats' decision?

00:00:35.260 Terrible. The Democrats aren't paying. The Democrats, we have a deal.

00:00:38.800 They just said we're not going to pay. We're not going to do anything.

00:00:41.700 And it's terrible. The Democrats are terrible. 0.98

00:00:45.800 You know, it'd be nice to get along, but for years this has been going on. 0.94

00:00:50.560 Not just with me. For years it's been going on.

00:00:52.820 Different ideology, but also different tactics.

00:00:57.280 Here we are, we're fighting big battles with a very tough enemy and winning nicely.

00:01:04.140 And we're not allowed to have security in our country.

00:01:07.200 It's crazy.

00:01:08.420 The Democrats don't want to pay.

00:01:10.460 These are bad people.

00:01:11.460 These are not people that love our country, I can tell you that. 1.00

00:01:14.620 They're very sick people. 0.82

00:01:15.720 Thank you very much, everybody.

00:01:17.040 Thank you.

00:01:17.380 Thank you, sir.

00:01:19.700 Thank you, guys.

00:01:20.360 Thank you.

00:01:21.000 Thank you, Chris.

00:01:22.880 Thanks for all the questions.

00:01:24.100 Okay.

00:01:24.380 Right from the Oval Office, the President of the United States, two press briefings today, tons of news the President's making about the war, about our allies, et cetera.

00:01:39.680 Here's what we've got to do.

00:01:40.700 We've got a cold open here in the War Room.

00:01:43.200 It is Monday, 16 March, in the year of our Lord, 2026.

00:01:46.820 We've got a great cold open for you.

00:01:48.400 some great guests and we're absolutely packed for the next i don't know one hour and 55 minutes

00:01:54.800 let's go ahead and let it rip in the cold i'll be back with you in a couple of minutes iran is a

00:02:00.080 deeply polarized society it's not polarized 50 50 i would say it's probably polarized 20 80 i don't

00:02:06.360 think the regime has more than 20 popular support but for dictatorships to survive you don't worry

00:02:12.320 about the breadth of your support. You need the ruthless devotion of a small minority.

00:02:18.780 And this regime's, the ruthless devotion of the minority in Iran has been reawakened by this. And 0.70

00:02:25.400 as they say, there's no factions and foxholes. It's a regime fighting for its survival. It showed

00:02:31.680 last January it's willing to kill tens of thousands of people to stay in power. And I think they're

00:02:36.440 going to continue to have their fingers on the trigger for the foreseeable future.

00:02:39.740 Now that you've announced that the U.S. has destroyed all of Iran's mine-laying ships, why can't the U.S. just immediately reopen the Strait of Hormuz? 0.63

00:02:50.340 Well, we could, but it takes two to tango. We have to get people to take their billion-dollar ship and drive it up.

00:03:00.160 have when when pepe has his big sugar ships coming around and they cost a billion dollars

00:03:09.440 and we say i think it's okay now pepe take your ship drive it through the strainer for him as he

00:03:14.760 may say let me wait a little while because it takes it takes uh ship owners and the you know

00:03:23.680 these ships are very expensive they can cost up to two billion dollars so they don't want to take

00:03:30.340 a chance that gee i think i think you'll be okay they got to know it so they don't have to set you

00:03:36.860 know we don't know if they even set any minds but the thought that they may have is enough to keep

00:03:43.540 people from saying we don't need it now we are pounding that area that coast as you know left

00:03:51.800 side we're pounding it like really pounding it hard and uh again they may have no mindset

00:04:01.520 we hit every one of their mind droppers they call it the mind layers right the ships they're pretty

00:04:07.020 sophisticated ships every one of them is gone but it only takes one so it's it's a little unfair

00:04:14.820 you know you you win a war but they they have no right to be doing what they're doing but we're

00:04:20.460 hitting them very hard. And today is a big day where we're pounding a certain area that

00:04:25.200 has very much to do with the strait. And I think we'll get it going very soon. In addition,

00:04:32.760 we do have other nations coming in. You need people to watch and people to see. We have other

00:04:38.180 nations coming in. Look, look what happened in the last two weeks. They weren't supposed to go

00:04:44.040 after all these other countries in the Middle East. Those missiles were set to go after them.

00:04:50.040 So they hit Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait. Nobody expected that. We were shocked.

00:05:00.520 Some are very enthusiastic and some are less than enthusiastic. And I assume some will not do it.

00:05:07.900 I think we have one or two that will not do it that we've been protecting for about 40 years

00:05:12.240 at, you know, tens of billions of dollars, Mr. Speaker.

00:05:16.840 So I'll I'll be reporting that to you in the House and the Senate.

00:05:20.900 And I'll say, why are we protecting countries that don't protect us?

00:05:24.520 And I've always felt that was a weakness of NATO.

00:05:27.240 We were going to protect them.

00:05:28.840 But I always said, when in need, they won't protect us.

00:05:32.180 Now, this is a need. Need would be one of the big boys.

00:05:37.440 But I will say that we built the greatest military in the world.

00:05:42.240 and we protect people and if we need their mine boats or if we need uh anything any piece of

00:05:49.680 apparatus that they may have because of a situation that they have uh they should be jumping

00:05:55.680 to help us because we've helped them for years stay out of wars yep if the united states is

00:06:00.480 working to secure the strait of harmuz for the benefit of other countries like china and our

00:06:05.360 allies aren't yet stepping up to your standard is the united states getting back to being the

00:06:11.280 world's policeman look the united states should not be very much involved they can on a certain

00:06:20.520 basis they've been doing it for a long time but i've always said i said if you look back years

00:06:25.460 ago i said why aren't we being reimbursed you know these are the richest countries in the world

00:06:29.680 why aren't we being reimbursed for maintaining the the hormones straight and why aren't we being

00:06:38.460 reimbursed for that i've said that for years you can look go back they reported on it yesterday

00:06:43.880 i've been saying i've been saying a lot of things about the streets number one i said

00:06:48.060 it's the one advantage they have but that's a suicidal advantage because they kill themselves

00:06:54.340 more than they kill the rest of the world and there are things you can do with time there are

00:06:59.220 other things you can do but i think that i think we're going to have the situation straight now

00:07:04.920 pretty quickly and i think we're going to have some good help and i think we're going to be

00:07:08.100 disappointed in some nations too. And I'll let you know who those nations are.

00:07:13.000 Then General Dan Cain told the president in several briefings that U.S. officials long

00:07:18.680 believed Iran would deploy mines, drones and missiles to close the strait. Quote,

00:07:24.840 Trump acknowledged the risk, these people said, but moved forward, telling his team Tehran would 0.97

00:07:32.440 likely capitulate before closing the strait. And even if Iran tried, the U.S. military could handle

00:07:40.560 it. Israel is expected to expand its ground offensive in southern Lebanon to go after

00:07:46.260 Hezbollah. Have you discussed that with Israeli leaders? And does the United States support

00:07:51.360 a potential Israeli invasion of Lebanon? Yeah, I know I did. And I know the Hezbollah is a problem. 1.00

00:07:58.440 it's been a problem for a long time not just now and it's it's a certain area because i was with

00:08:05.480 the other night a person whose parents live in lebanon this is a very substantial person wealthy

00:08:10.680 person whose parents live in lebanon i said really how do you live in lebanon your parents are living

00:08:16.900 oh yeah they live there and over the years they've gotten used to the fact that it's being bombed

00:08:22.580 but they explained to me that it's really a different section of lebanon it's a section

00:08:27.500 where hezbollah is and they get used to it i guess i don't know i mean people live in ukraine

00:08:32.820 you would think they wouldn't live in ukraine but they live in ukraine uh i don't know that i'd do

00:08:38.800 that but they live in ukraine they live in lebanon uh hezbollah is a big problem and 0.53

00:08:44.500 they're rapidly being eliminated lisa do you think president trump could declare that victory and

00:08:51.160 and leave what would that look like i mean this is the off-ramp i think so many in the business

00:08:55.920 community hope he's going to take? The problem is that there are two other actors here. So

00:09:03.160 he can say, we don't want to do this anymore. And the Iranians can say, well, then we won. 1.00

00:09:08.780 Or he could say, we don't want to do this anymore. And the Israelis would say, well,

00:09:12.580 we're not finished. So I think the problem for Washington is really how you work with

00:09:18.540 the allies, obviously the Israelis, and to some extent the Gulf states, and try and figure out

00:09:24.800 a way that means you can tamp this down without giving the opportunity for the iranian regime to

00:09:32.520 say they all chickened out yeah monday 16 march in a year of our lord 2026 uh you're the first

00:09:44.480 among equals as allies the uh israelis in the gulf don't get to go cut their own strategic

00:09:50.580 objectives and keep rolling if you decide it's over. President Trump makes a very compelling,

00:09:57.160 both in the morning and the afternoon, makes an incredibly compelling argument that it's not our

00:10:05.160 problem. I mean, he's pretty adamant about, hey, we've been doing this for years. Nobody's paid

00:10:10.480 us. We're never paid back. I think it's a great argument now of reassessing the entire strategic

00:10:16.600 situation in which we find ourselves let's bring in liz hoffman semaphore business and uh she's 1.00

00:10:22.400 editor of business and finance and also the host of compound interest the show the podcast

00:10:28.100 liz uh i think we can actually maybe get a solution here on the asymmetric economic and

00:10:35.180 finance warfare we should be fighting every day scott bessins showed us the way somewhat back in

00:10:41.460 january you had an exclusive report talking about i guess it's an economic warfare unit that's being

00:10:48.160 set up in the department of war and they're staffing it with some of the most lethal people

00:10:53.220 on earth that would be investment bankers am i correct in reading your article that way

00:10:57.820 well you spent time at a former investment bank so i will leave the um the characterization to

00:11:03.500 you but yes the pentagon is is out with a headhunting pitch uh across wall street looking

00:11:08.860 for investment

00:11:10.920 bankers, particularly those who have deep

00:11:12.760 relationships with private equity firms, whose

00:11:14.740 clients are kind of the Blackstones and KKRs 1.00

00:11:16.920 and Carlisles of the world, and

00:11:18.660 trying to get them to come in-house and build

00:11:20.780 a little investment banking

00:11:22.940 unit that will go out and find

00:11:24.700 deals for the Pentagon

00:11:26.300 to do, to companies

00:11:28.780 to invest in, to take stakes in, and then

00:11:30.820 help kind of raise the money and marshal

00:11:32.760 some private sector

00:11:34.240 financing around it.

00:11:36.040 it's this has been kind of controversial i think the cia has had uh a unit uh i don't know if the

00:11:44.680 department of war but i thought it was somehow associated either with the weapons lab or the

00:11:48.360 pentagon in some way haven't haven't we had this as kind of a start they were going to put up

00:11:52.360 startup or angel round cash into uh nascent deals yeah the cia has had a venture firm which you know

00:11:59.860 about which we don't know that much for obvious reasons but you know for a long time and and by

00:12:04.040 way like people on wall street have gone into government for years of both parties um this one

00:12:09.320 for whatever reason in the moment that it's landing into the kinds of deals that it's going

00:12:13.580 to be doing and ultimately who its client is going to be which is the president of the united states

00:12:18.420 feels a little more like interestingly coded i think um you know certainly we had a lot of people

00:12:24.740 on wall street were in doge right you know tapped pretty heavily from particularly silicon valley

00:12:28.920 venture tech bankers out in California. You know, but Gary Cohn went into the first Trump

00:12:35.540 administration. You know, there are people who you'll remember from your days at Goldman,

00:12:38.940 you know, for whom it was like a real act of public service. And this is being pitched really

00:12:44.020 as kind of a once in a career opportunity. You know, the documents that I'd seen dangle,

00:12:49.020 you know, correctly that this is it's $200 billion over the remainder of President Trump's

00:12:55.140 term and they kind of say this is this exactly this is more money than you will deploy in your

00:12:59.720 entire career which is which is correct um it's not totally obvious to me where the money is

00:13:04.880 coming from this may be from the ndaa from the military um you know budget process the trump

00:13:11.680 administration also mostly in the commerce department and some other places thinks it's

00:13:17.540 going to get a couple hundred billion dollars maybe a trillion dollars through these foreign

00:13:20.860 trade deals to invest. And I think if you squint at it and kind of put the pieces together,

00:13:26.800 it looks a little bit like the sovereign wealth fund that the president has said that he wants.

00:13:32.880 Is this, we want to hold you through the break, but we got 60 seconds for sure. Is this the

00:13:38.060 beginning of really an official industrial policy? Because people say, hey, funding the Pentagon

00:13:42.200 with over a trillion dollars is really the industrial policy of the United States. Is

00:13:45.700 Is this just a fund that accelerates that?

00:13:49.840 I mean, look, we've had real industrial policy, you know, for five or six years now, going back to the CHIPS Act, the Biden administration.

00:13:55.120 And it has become a bipartisan thing, this idea, as unpopular as the government picking winners and losers may be.

00:14:01.100 And, you know, we could all go back and remember what an albatross Solyndra was for the Obama administration.

00:14:05.560 It's become kind of bipartisan policy that we should be more thoughtful about how we're investing.

00:14:10.960 Liz Hoffman from

00:14:14.760 Summerfort broke a big exclusive

00:14:16.200 we're going to take a short commercial break

00:14:18.480 Chip Roy running

00:14:20.680 for the Attorney General slot

00:14:22.560 in Texas is going to join us shortly

00:14:24.820 short commercial break

00:14:26.280 Natasha Owens will take us out

00:14:28.760 we'll be back in the war room

00:14:30.160 on the 17th day of the war in Iran

00:14:32.940 next

00:14:40.960 What about Lake and Riley

00:14:45.300 It's Charlie too hard to say

00:14:48.800 What about when you took your shot

00:14:52.760 At the one you called King

00:14:55.640 Where is this song for justice

00:14:59.140 Think about this.

00:15:00.940 In 2006, $20,000 equaled roughly

00:15:05.840 33 ounces of gold at spot prices.

00:15:09.500 at today's prices those 33 ounces of gold will be worth 165 000 smart americans diversify a portion

00:15:22.560 of their savings into precious metals and that's why you need to consider buying gold for my friends

00:16:12.220 to 989898 again my name bannon b-a-n-n-o-n to the number 989898 do it today here's your host

00:16:23.600 Liz, some people, you know, think that this particular, you know, we've now announced,

00:16:34.140 I think the president's confirmed, we're probably not going to go for a state visit to China

00:16:37.640 for some time. But a lot of people are concerned that although we brought them into the World Trade

00:16:43.140 Organization and we gave most favorite nation status and at one time there was this big thought

00:16:48.300 that they would be the manufacturing and we would bring them in with the Lighthizer deal in

00:16:51.840 May of 2019, they would fold into the economic order. Of course, they tore that up and spit in

00:16:58.060 our face. But a lot of people are quite concerned that instead of them becoming a liberal democracy

00:17:03.960 and Jeffersonian Democrats, that there's a form of state capitalism. We are starting to resemble

00:17:10.800 that. And one of the ways we resemble that is using the Pentagon and a trillion dollar budget

00:17:16.040 as our industrial policy. And that's why something like this makes people quite nervous. And the

00:17:21.260 Overall, $7.5 trillion, it doesn't seem that big a deal.

00:17:25.940 But you put it in perspective is that when they're trying to recruit people, they're

00:17:28.900 telling them you'll never have in your life the ability to deploy $200 billion of capital

00:17:32.580 in a couple of years.

00:17:34.180 Has this industrial policy, do you think, looking at it from a business reporter, finance

00:17:40.720 reporter, has it worked out for us?

00:17:43.880 I think it's early.

00:17:46.380 You know, take, for example, the investment in Intel, right?

00:17:49.440 When that popped, I remember thinking, like, oh, guys, like, I don't know.

00:17:54.660 But it did kind of what it was supposed to do, I think, which is, you know, private money came in behind it.

00:18:00.560 It sort of put a floor under the price.

00:18:02.340 It was a vote of confidence in the CEO who was in a tough spot.

00:18:05.420 And a lot of private money followed and stocks done well.

00:18:08.640 Still real questions over their ability to manufacture really important chips domestically.

00:18:15.220 um the question is like what are they doing right if they're giving money to things that

00:18:22.100 that the private markets couldn't otherwise finance like okay the government is is an

00:18:27.640 is typically a lender of last resort or how you think of it it could be an investor of last resort

00:18:31.740 but then you worry like okay is this just adverse selection or the if these are deals that are good

00:18:36.340 or promising technologies the market would do that there's a lot of money floating around out there

00:18:40.560 So then it's like, OK, is it trying to get a return for the taxpayer? Right. If we're going to be funding all of these things to the budget process, is it you know, we're going to give a lot of money to Intel through the CHIPS Act and the Trump administration.

00:18:53.060 So actually, we want some stock in exchange for that. OK, I don't think as a taxpayer I'm going to get my cut of that in any way, but that's that's an alternative.

00:19:01.980 But then the real question is, are they trying to influence day to day operations?

00:19:05.000 And I think, you know, the Trump administration between the Department of Defense and Department of Commerce probably stakes in like 12 or 15 companies now.

00:19:13.360 And my understanding is they haven't really meddled that much.

00:19:16.700 They've done a little meddling at U.S. Steel where they have that kind of actually no economic interest, but this golden share, this kind of vote in the boardroom.

00:19:25.560 And that is, you know, it's a union issue.

00:19:28.220 It's a labor issue that they feel strongly about.

00:19:30.220 Okay. Is it going to be telling Intel what chips to make? If it's buying, you know, you could imagine it's going to buy some whatever industrial coolant from Blackstone that turns out is like really critical because it's really efficient at cooling data centers, which is obviously a thing in AI that the Trump administration cares a lot about.

00:19:47.260 Okay. Is it just providing a long-term purchase agreement for that company that can now go out and finance itself in the market? That's just like pretty fine and basic.

00:19:54.440 Is it going to say you have to make this thing here and here?

00:19:57.100 He's talked a lot about invoking the Defense Production Act in other situations.

00:20:01.180 And really, by the way, unrelated, has massively lit a fire under defense contractors, right?

00:20:08.300 So what happens if the way that they're running their business doesn't pass muster?

00:20:12.780 I don't know.

00:20:14.520 Yeah.

00:20:15.180 I mean, that's where I would look.

00:20:16.180 That was the come around they had with the – the six CEOs came in the White House, I think, Friday or Friday a week and got a come around.

00:20:23.800 And I think they were implied, hey, here's the defensive production.

00:20:26.760 Either you guys step up or we're going to have to put Peter Navarro in charge.

00:20:30.600 I think they're going to focus.

00:20:31.840 The intel is not small.

00:20:32.920 It's 10 percent.

00:20:34.100 I'll talk later.

00:20:34.840 The audience understands.

00:20:35.760 I think the government shouldn't hold it.

00:20:37.220 I think the government should distribute all those shares to taxpayers immediately.

00:20:41.560 Last question.

00:20:42.420 We're now in the asymmetric phase.

00:20:43.820 The center of gravity of the war in Iran is not Tehran, but it's really the Persian Gulf with our allies.

00:20:49.440 oil the straits are the straighter her moves was when the navy is going to be able to keep it open 1.00

00:20:56.040 our allied navy is going to help us but in asymmetric warfare is about economics you got

00:21:00.980 all the cash sitting in dubai in the banks you've got cash they're monetizing the oil through the

00:21:05.960 chinese i mean there's so many things you can do do you see this as really a cover to get some of

00:21:10.940 the smartest best and the brightest like the cia did after world war ii and get them into the 1.00

00:21:16.020 Department of War as a economic warfare unit? I've never been as squeamish about the revolving

00:21:23.680 door as some other people. And it's important to remember that it revolves both ways, right?

00:21:27.560 If you're going to care about what people do when they leave government, then the flip side of that

00:21:33.240 is sometimes there's really smart people in the private sector and we should get the benefit of

00:21:36.700 their expertise in the public sector. And one way to do that is to incentivize them to spend. And

00:21:42.400 by the way, this pitch is like, it was pitched explicitly, this is not a career change. This

00:21:45.440 Just come for two or three years, serve your country, do a lot of interesting stuff, make a lot of connections that you can then go monetize when you leave.

00:21:52.860 Look, the U.S. government, the U.S. is obviously very good at fighting kinetic wars.

00:21:57.180 We've learned that repeatedly.

00:21:59.320 But it is just the deepest and most liquid capital markets in the world.

00:22:03.760 And, you know, the kind of fracturing of the global order over the last couple of years has balkanized the global economy, but has made the U.S. more central.

00:22:14.360 I mean, the capital markets here are just incredibly, incredibly powerful. And, you know, if you're looking around for ways to press your advantage, like that's an obvious one. The flip side of that is we're really, you know, reliant on global energy flows. And there's been a lot of talk about, well, we are energy independent in the U.S. Why is gas more expensive, you know, if we're not importing? And the answer is that it's a global market. That is one place that just cannot be bullied.

00:22:38.680 And so we're going to have to deal with the consequences of that.

00:22:42.580 But, you know, we have a lot of money to invest.

00:22:45.500 The U.S. relative to other economies actually invests it relatively efficiently.

00:22:50.660 We get a fair amount of GDP boost for our investment dollars.

00:22:54.900 And, you know, that exuberance on Wall Street, exactly the companies whose clients, you know, the Pentagon now wants, you know, the bankers to hire, their exuberance, their willingness to take risks.

00:23:05.720 It gets us in trouble, but it is also the reason that, for example, we bounce back faster from 2008 and from COVID than Europe did because they rely on these banks that are sort of commercial banks, very stodgy.

00:23:18.320 They don't have a lot of that capital markets investment DNA.

00:23:22.120 And, you know, it helps us pull our way out of recessions faster.

00:23:25.700 It is obviously a competitive advantage globally.

00:23:28.160 Yeah. And those banks are all either have been state-owned or just recently went public or have a history of being economic bureaucrats instead of capital markets.

00:23:38.180 And they're very parochial and they stop at borders and it's a problem.

00:23:42.000 Exactly. Liz, where do people follow your – where do they follow your reporting, social media, and how do they get to compound interest?

00:23:50.980 You can sign up for compound interest wherever you get your podcasts. Actually, our episode dropping this week is right on this topic.

00:23:56.560 We spoke to the head of the American Dynamism Fund inside Andreessen Horowitz, the sort of America-first defense investment fund.

00:24:03.500 It's a super interesting conversation.

00:24:05.020 You should all listen to it.

00:24:06.260 You can sign up for Semaphore Business at semaphore.com.

00:24:08.900 I run a twice-a-week newsletter, and I'm on Twitter at Liz R. Hoffman.

00:24:14.620 Thank you, ma'am.

00:24:15.420 Great reporting.

00:24:16.940 Thanks, Steve.

00:24:17.780 Folks, load up on that. 0.99

00:24:19.580 You've got to use your agency.

00:24:21.040 This is quite complicated, not just this war, but what comes after.

00:24:24.320 how do how do we get to a uh the finish line and what comes after more on that in the six o'clock

00:24:30.700 hour joe allen's going to join me about artificial intelligence the video announced i think a trillion

00:24:35.380 dollars of backlog on high-end chips for the next two years that'll be a wake-up call to people and

00:24:41.080 president trump's the other day complaining about i mean he was bringing up the facts but complaining

00:24:46.060 about ai in this war what the some of the images coming out of uh the phony images coming out of

00:24:51.820 erect. Okay, we're about to head into a quite complicated period over this week, maybe hopefully

00:24:57.780 the next couple of weeks in the Senate. One of the quarterbacks of all this, particularly related

00:25:02.980 to the Constitution and customs and traditions of the Hill, is now running in a runoff for the

00:25:09.560 attorney generalship of the great state of Texas. Chip Roy joins us. Chip, just take a second. I'm

00:25:14.840 holding you through the break, but just take a second. You're very close to Mike Lee. You and

00:25:19.380 Andy Beggs, a handful of you guys are really the strict constitutionals. This is why you were on

00:25:23.120 rules in the revolt against McCarthy. Where do we stand on this thing? From the House,

00:25:29.460 how can you see this thing playing out over the next couple of days, although obviously it's going

00:25:32.780 to be in the Senate, but you guys are either going to get a bill that comes back to you marked up,

00:25:37.940 or a bill that they sign off on your bill, or nothing happens, sir?

00:25:43.600 Well, first of all, yeah, partnering with some of my best friends in Washington on this deal,

00:25:48.260 Mike Lee, obviously in the Senate, Cleta Mitchell, who you know well, who appears on this show

00:25:52.440 regularly. We've been partnering to advance the cause of the SAVE Act and then ultimately the

00:25:59.240 SAVE America Act once we added to it voter ID. Obviously, the president, I think showing his

00:26:06.940 great political instincts, wanted to try to package it in a more robust version, including

00:26:11.800 the mail-in ballots, which we all support, and the issues involving boys being in girls'

00:26:19.140 bathrooms or playing in girls' sports and transgender issues.

00:26:22.420 So what you're going to see in the Senate is taking our Save America Act, which we passed,

00:26:27.480 taking it over to the Senate, we passed it in a vehicle that makes it faster.

00:26:31.560 That is, it avoids the motion to proceed cloture vote.

00:26:35.760 It's not technically a motion to proceed when you're talking about a message, but that's

00:26:38.780 nerd speak.

00:26:39.820 Bottom line is, to get on the bill, you can do it with a majority vote, not 60.

00:26:44.460 We designed that in the House.

00:26:46.800 This has all taken a long time to get structured.

00:26:49.420 So you ask what's going to happen.

00:26:51.100 It depends on the fortitude of senators to stay on the bill.

00:26:56.100 So by proceeding to it, moving to this message, we're now going to be debating the topic.

00:27:02.420 That's a good thing.

00:27:03.460 That is a step forward.

00:27:04.520 we're going to have amendments to address the other issues that we want to address

00:27:09.560 bathroom sports and mail-in ballots and and transgender surgeries so we'll process those 0.51

00:27:16.140 amendments with a full tree that's all again nerd speak to say we will move some of those other

00:27:21.740 issues and then as this unfolds we've got to keep the heat up and we've got to keep the heat keep

00:27:27.400 the heat up on democrats but also on the weak republicans who have been saying they don't

00:27:32.800 support it. We're talking about McConnell, Murkowski, Tillis, wavering, and we're right on

00:27:38.860 that cusp of 50 votes. The American people have to speak out loudly. If we do that, then the trick

00:27:45.140 is to stay on the bill. You don't move off the bill until someone, the leader, puts a motion to

00:27:52.080 proceed to something else on the floor. We should say don't do that. Stay on that bill. And I'm with

00:27:58.820 my colleagues in the House. We're trying to put pressure in the House to say we're not going to

00:28:02.340 move any other senate priorities we're not going to move anything else yeah we'd process dhs funding

00:28:06.700 but we got to stay on the bill that's the trick yeah chip hang on for one second chip is running

00:28:13.740 to be the attorney general of the jewel of the crown of the union the great state of texas next

00:28:19.840 in the world if a major disruption happened to you once again if a major disruption happened

00:30:00.480 we've got good news in georgia i'm gonna get to in a second on the 2020 election fight in courts

00:30:07.560 i want to go to chip roy running for the attorney general in uh in texas what explain to the

00:30:12.560 audience, you know, we had your competitor on, Mays was on here a couple of days ago,

00:30:17.080 and we asked him the same question. Just walk us through, why are you doing this? What do you

00:30:21.300 think the biggest issues are? What do you think is confronting the folks in the state of Texas,

00:30:25.960 and what are you going to do about it? Yeah, Steve, I could have stayed in Congress and

00:30:31.460 continued to fight affairs 1 435th of one half of one third of the federal government, but there's

00:30:36.580 a limit to what you can do. As an executive in the state of Texas, you can lead. And frankly,

00:30:41.080 right now, Texas needs leadership to carry us forward. We're under attack. We're under assault

00:30:45.760 by radical leftists, Marxists, by the Wren Collective, by all of the radical leftists

00:30:50.480 and the Soros funding that are putting criminals on our streets. But most importantly of all,

00:30:53.980 the advance of Islam in the state of Texas. With all due respect to Mays, I have no idea what he

00:30:57.820 said on your show. I wouldn't have seen it. But he's never been a lawyer. He's never practiced.

00:31:02.620 He's never prosecuted a bad guy. He's never been in court. He's never stood before a judge.

00:31:06.180 He's never done a damn thing, Steve. Literally nothing except to use his granddaddy's money to

00:31:10.140 buy power, to buy a seat, to pay to become a state rep, to pay to become a state senator.

00:31:15.900 And frankly, I've devoted my entire life to the cause of freedom, whether it was as Ted Cruz's

00:31:20.140 chief of staff, as a lawyer for Rick Perry, as the first assistant attorney general where I was

00:31:24.720 filing important matters in court, as a federal prosecutor, where I was putting bad guys in jail,

00:31:31.000 and now in Congress where I've been leading the fight on every single issue. And you know it,

00:31:35.040 right, with respect to the SAVE Act, spending, dealing with the border issue, HR2, leading the

00:31:41.060 fight on every single front. Mays takes his granddaddy's money, goes on TV and spreads lies,

00:31:46.480 says that I'm saddling up the transgender lobby because I dared to try to improve a bill to try

00:31:50.740 to figure out how to get it through the Senate and the logjam that it is so that we could actually 0.86

00:31:54.300 get something done to stop these ridiculous and horrific transgender procedures. The bottom line 1.00

00:32:00.160 is we need an actual proven fighter who will stand up and fight. And by the way, somebody who's

00:32:04.120 independently minded, somebody who will stand up and do the right thing. And I think I've proven

00:32:08.700 that over and over again. And if we do not win the battle of Islam, if we don't have a smart 0.99

00:32:13.620 constitutional lawyer who can stand up and explain how this is a political ideology,

00:32:17.600 that this is not a religion, this is not something that can hide behind the First Amendment.

00:32:21.700 This is the Muslim Brotherhood laying out a precise plan to attack our state and our country, 1.00

00:32:27.020 and they're doing it. And we're not doing anything about it. And by the way, where the hell has 0.54

00:32:31.100 Mays Middleton been? As a state senator and state rep, what has he done in Austin to do anything

00:32:36.700 to stop the continuation and the advancement of all of this? The fact is I've been throwing my

00:32:42.120 body in front of the train in Washington last year in the big, beautiful bill trying to stop

00:32:45.600 expansion of the SIV Afghani program, trying to stop the increase of legal immigration while also

00:32:52.360 trying to halt illegal immigration. And we need a proven fighter who can stand up for attorney

00:32:56.740 general, get into court, defend Texas, go on offense. And if we're in the minority in the

00:33:01.980 House and the Senate after this fall, and if, God forbid, we have a Democrat in the White House in

00:33:06.800 29, Texas will lead the defense of Western civilization. And you've got to have somebody

00:33:13.340 with a proven pedigree to do it, not somebody who needs on-the-job training.

00:33:18.920 You've seen this being a member of the Freedom Caucus. You've seen this over and over again

00:33:22.160 in washington trying to move things about the established order the financial and business

00:33:27.260 interests the business community chamber congress things like that you know and i would submit that

00:33:32.720 in ken paxton's reign as attorney general he was fighting the business community and the vested

00:33:38.160 interests as much as he was fighting radical democrats and he was fighting radical democrats

00:33:42.620 in the biden regime every day um as i as we went down i kind of shifted the show down to texas i am

00:33:50.160 stunned at how advanced this this islamic invasion of texas and that's why i'm so proud of the prop 10 1.00

00:33:56.660 it is so much farther advanced we've had pito mackalvaney come in from london

00:34:00.880 a couple times he said hey in the same time frame of how they came to london it's much more

00:34:06.760 advanced in texas and one of the reasons is people are making a lot of money on whether

00:34:11.320 it's halal food or whether it's real estate deals that they're paying a premium as attorney general

00:34:16.520 I mean, it's just not terrorist groups like the Muslim Brotherhood and CARE, which obviously you and the governor are going to have to figure out how to really implement them being terrorist organizations, what you're going to do.

00:34:30.040 It's also now a business community that's making an awful lot of money and sees this as a whole new segment for the economy.

00:34:36.920 How do you intend to take that on?

00:34:38.900 If you really want to stop this invasion and then reverse it, you're going to have to do that.

00:34:42.720 So as attorney general, you'll be the lead sled dog.

00:34:45.880 what's your what are your thoughts on that yeah first of all you get out publicly and you say it

00:34:50.940 I've done that and I've done it many times over in fact CARE has been protesting my office because

00:34:54.760 I've led legislation to take away their tax status I've led legislation to vet people for 1.00

00:34:59.620 Sharia law but you got to be willing to stand up and say it and I did that on the house floor two 0.72

00:35:04.220 years ago and farther back than that in fact the last substantive conversation I have with Charlie

00:35:08.480 Kirk was on this very topic but the biggest thing you can do as attorney general besides use the

00:35:13.540 bully pulpit to make sure everybody's aware of it, is to use your power to open the books of

00:35:18.580 these nonprofits and go look at the, I believe, 600 organizations operating in Texas. Amy Meck,

00:35:25.460 our good friend who runs Rare. Amy is a warrior for freedom, a patriot out there calling out

00:35:31.340 all of the advancement of the Islamification of Texas and Sharia law and everything that's

00:35:36.220 happening to undermine Western civilization. Amy's brilliant. I had one of her great folks

00:35:40.680 testifying in my committee that I chair, the subcommittee of the constitution that I held a

00:35:45.260 month ago on Sharia law. I've been leaving on this issue for a long time, but you got to have

00:35:50.620 somebody willing to do it and somebody willing to go open up the books, follow the money, figure 0.67

00:35:55.220 out where you can cut the head of the snake off because the Muslim Brotherhood and CARE, those 1.00

00:36:00.160 are just two very notorious examples. There are hundreds of examples of organizations funding 0.93

00:36:06.160 this purposeful invasion. In fact, if you go look at the memo from 1991 of the Muslim Brotherhood, 0.86

00:36:12.300 they literally talk about how it is basically a quiet jihad, that they're saying that this

00:36:18.440 takeover of North America, of America, of Texas, that that is a quiet jihad that they're called to 0.76

00:36:24.300 do. They are waging war with our way of life, and we're letting them hide behind the First Amendment. 0.99

00:36:30.200 This isn't about your belief system. This is about a political ideology designed to uproot,

00:36:35.320 upend and destroy everything that we hold dear, our Judeo-Christian values, our laws, 0.98

00:36:42.140 our constitution, our declaration to be supplanted with Sharia, Islamic law, and the advancement of

00:36:49.700 Islam in the West. We must stand to thwart it and stop it. And if your goal is to undermine America, 1.00

00:36:55.100 then you're my enemy and you need to be removed. And the attorney general of Texas needs to be

00:36:59.280 willing to say it, needs to have a track record of having done it, and then needs to do it.

00:37:05.320 People talk about Epic City, but as we've been up in, you know, north of the Dallas-Fort Worth of Metroplex, you have a half a dozen things like this, maybe not the scale.

00:37:16.240 How do you intend to stop that?

00:37:17.860 Is this because you're going to force them into court to open their books and see who's financing it, who's partnering with them?

00:37:22.680 Because if people think Epic City is one and done, they are wrong.

00:37:26.960 These things are popping up all over, maybe not at the scale of Epic City, but pretty close, sir.

00:37:32.940 Yeah, first of all, yes, you have to go after Epic City, but it is to some degree.

00:37:37.360 I don't want to say it's a shiny object because it's really important, but it's kind of everybody's focus is on that.

00:37:42.800 The fact is there's 300 plus mosques and growing in Texas, more being built in Texas every year than any other state in the union.

00:37:50.340 That's a real problem.

00:37:51.860 And let's go back to the corporate interest problem.

00:37:54.560 Like, honestly, this is what really galls me, is the state of Texas now, for the better part of two decades, post 9-11, you know, our country has allowed some 5 million people to come into the United States from majority Muslim countries.

00:38:09.260 That is a federal issue from an immigration standpoint for sure.

00:38:12.460 But let's not ignore the fact that Texas, Texas corporations, Texas government, Texas leaders

00:38:19.220 generally, that Texas was saying, hey, bring all these people in for labor. We need folks to come

00:38:24.900 in and then do H-1Bs, diversity visas, chain migration. And all of that was purposeful,

00:38:31.100 and it was designed to appease the corporate interests. That's one of the fundamental problems.

00:38:37.240 Texas has too much corporate interest coming in trying to buy up our state.

00:38:42.000 They're buying up our land, they're buying up our ranches, they're buying up our cattle,

00:38:45.820 they're buying up our meat processing, they're buying up a lot of our businesses,

00:38:48.840 but they're also trading with, you know, bringing people in who aren't Texans.

00:38:54.140 And importantly, go back to my opponent for a second, they're trying to buy elections. 0.99

00:38:58.540 Like my opponent spent $15 million of his own money against me running negative ads,

00:39:04.740 saying that I'm the devil and that I'm not nearly strong enough for the state of Texas.

00:39:08.780 I raised every dollar that I've ever run on.

00:39:11.000 And, you know, my opponent's been doing this for years, buying the seat.

00:39:16.580 Texas is not for sale.

00:39:18.200 Texas should not be for sale.

00:39:19.980 We need people here who have earned it.

00:39:21.560 We need businesses here who are Texan.

00:39:23.300 We need our land to stay with Texans. 1.00

00:39:25.200 We need to stop Islam from marching into our state. 1.00

00:39:27.740 We need to secure the border, no matter who's in the White House. 0.90

00:39:30.620 Because you get a Democrat in the White House in 2029, you better damn well have leadership

00:39:34.920 in the state of Texas who will look to the administration, look to the world, and say

00:39:39.120 not a soul is coming across our river.

00:39:41.000 declare it an invasion and do something about it. And I don't think we moved fast enough under

00:39:46.020 Biden, my Orcas, and God forbid we have a Democrat in 29, we got to be ready to fight.

00:39:50.940 And with all respect to my opponent, he's never had to do a single thing in his life.

00:39:56.740 You know, we've had two members of the Texas Education Board on the show over last week about

00:40:02.600 this, these hearings they've had in this effort of the Islamic, some of these Islamic entities,

00:40:09.260 not-for-profits try to change texas school books texas history and u.s history and of course you

00:40:14.560 know texas because of the the printing deals and just how much people think of texas it it really

00:40:20.000 the way texas education goes in school books changes i think 26 states uh they and both of

00:40:25.820 them said at the time hey the democrats have 100 lined up with the islamicists but he said also

00:40:32.240 there's a handful of these uh middle of the road republicans are just afraid to step in the fray

00:40:37.960 what are you going to do as attorney general to let people know, hey, you can't be afraid here.

00:40:41.440 You've got to step into this fight because we could, folks, Texas is, this invasion in Texas

00:40:46.840 is much farther down the road and the media has not covered it at all. And this education,

00:40:52.020 these hearings are going to take place in April and these votes are paramount to turning this

00:40:57.360 thing around. As attorney general, what are you going to do to let people know that you've got

00:41:01.620 their back, that care is not going to be able to come and sue them and put them in bankruptcy and

00:41:04.840 take them to court. Yeah. First of all, you got to expose all of it, every single bit of it. And

00:41:09.820 that goes back to, of course, not just the nonprofits and the NGOs and exposing the flow

00:41:13.400 of the dollars there and then finding that, finding out where they're in coordination with

00:41:16.860 terrorists and shutting them down, but also tracking and following the dollars that you're

00:41:20.600 talking about. Thank goodness we've got a comptroller coming in who I think is a warrior

00:41:25.180 for freedom in Don Huffines. I think his comptroller, he's going to open up the books

00:41:29.180 and look at the details. But you got to have somebody who's willing to take on the Austin

00:41:32.780 Swamp. For too long, the Austin Swamp has had a stranglehold on where the real Texans are.

00:41:39.400 And we've got to expose all of the money that's flowing. There is a corruption in the entirety

00:41:44.580 of the education system. The amount of money that flows to developers to build fancy schools,

00:41:49.320 and then they cut deals because their dollars are flowing to build the fancy schools.

00:41:53.560 And then you've got to make sure that certain communities are going to be

00:41:56.460 taken care of. And this is where we get into the issues like you're describing.

00:41:59.760 And we should not be teaching Islam or advancing Islam. 1.00

00:42:02.340 We shouldn't have schools like Wiley,

00:42:03.980 where you've got burqas and the Quran being passed out.

00:42:07.100 And you've got to have an attorney general

00:42:08.420 that's going to stand up and defend our laws,

00:42:10.700 fight to make sure we're using

00:42:11.780 the Deceptive Trade Praxis Act,

00:42:13.420 fight on constitutional grounds,

00:42:15.260 fight to make sure that our zoning laws are being applied,

00:42:17.980 fight to make sure that we know

00:42:19.120 where the dollars are flowing.

00:42:20.600 And if they're tied to terrorists, 0.99

00:42:21.800 knock their knees out from under them,

00:42:22.980 but also go to the legislature and be a voice

00:42:25.700 as one of the statewide elected office holders,

00:42:28.400 be a voice to say, no more, not on our watch. We're not going to do this. And by the way,

00:42:33.620 you've got to have someone who understands the underpinnings of the Constitution,

00:42:37.920 as chairman of the subcommittee of the Constitution, as someone who's been on the

00:42:41.060 House Judiciary Committee now for my time in Congress. I've got the background to be able to

00:42:46.700 do that, but also the demonstration of the willingness to stand up and fight. Again,

00:42:51.400 where was everybody two years ago when I went to the floor of the House, I made this pitch,

00:42:56.320 And I told people this is a problem.

00:42:58.580 And a lot of my colleagues kind of yawned.

00:43:00.700 Now it's becoming more fashionable for people to jump aboard the train.

00:43:04.800 And, you know, we founded the Sharia Free America Caucus, Keith Self and I.

00:43:08.960 He's a great American.

00:43:10.040 A bunch of my colleagues in the Freedom Caucus, a few not in the Freedom Caucus have joined

00:43:13.680 that effort.

00:43:14.460 We're trying to shine the light on it.

00:43:16.080 But we're still only around, I don't know, 55 members.

00:43:19.260 I don't know what the latest count is.

00:43:21.000 But, you know, like a quarter of the Republican conference.

00:43:23.860 Where's the rest, right?

00:43:25.240 I mean, and again, where are they in the legislature?

00:43:28.180 We need more of that standing up and announcing this to the people of Texas.

00:43:32.820 And as attorney general, I would do that, follow the law, defend the Constitution, but stand up and say that Islam is not compatible with the West. 1.00

00:43:41.100 Chip, hang on one second.

00:43:42.280 One more break.

00:43:42.860 I want people to know where to go to contribute, to find out more, your social media, all of it.

00:43:46.640 Short break.

00:43:47.200 Chip, we're on the other side.

00:43:49.100 We will fight till they're all gone.

00:43:51.680 We rejoice when there's no more.

00:43:53.520 Fellow patriots, the Federal Reserve has betrayed America for over a century, printing fiat, inflating away your savings, serving globalist masters.

00:44:07.140 But President Trump is ending it.

00:44:09.560 President Trump is wielding a 112-year-old law to reclaim control over the rogue Federal Reserve.

00:44:17.360 He's replacing Jerome Powell, slashing rates, and igniting America's re-industrialization.

00:44:22.900 This isn't theory. Government backed industry plus low rates unleashes super cycles.

00:44:29.960 History repeats. Gold's already exploding. Miners are up 400 percent in the last year.

00:44:36.480 What Rickards is calling Trump's gift is wealth for American patriots, not global handouts.

00:44:44.060 Now it's America's turn. Gold to 27,000 in the coming years. 0.97

00:44:48.640 Jim Rickards, CIA and Pentagon veteran, says act now.

00:44:53.180 Go to Insider2026.com.

00:44:56.580 That's Insider2026.com to get Jim Rickards' strategic intelligence newsletter today.

00:45:05.960 Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann.

00:45:11.200 Chip, you've been one of the architects of this from the beginning.

00:45:14.140 So we're about to start a journey, I don't know, tomorrow evening or maybe Wednesday,

00:45:17.580 about the Save America Act,

00:45:19.400 do you give us, before you bounce,

00:45:21.260 can you give us some guidance?

00:45:23.820 That we're sitting here hoping that the Senate

00:45:25.960 will move forward with an issue

00:45:27.220 that is an 85% issue with voter ID,

00:45:30.080 with citizenships voting,

00:45:31.260 and then even the other things added,

00:45:33.000 mail-in ballots and the other issues

00:45:34.560 like trans and boys and girls sports.

00:45:36.800 It's insane.

00:45:38.140 Like, this is the problem with Republicans.

00:45:40.320 I don't want to listen to Lisa Murkowski

00:45:42.300 babbling about whatever she's saying about Alaska

00:45:44.460 or Tom Tillis crying about whatever he's crying about

00:45:46.780 on his way out of the Senate, or Mitch McConnell, he can barely understand what he's saying.

00:45:51.220 I'm a big defender of institutions. By the way, this is important. If you think the filibuster

00:45:56.140 should be saved to try to stop bad things in the future, then make them talk. Because if you keep

00:46:02.680 an artificial fake 60 vote threshold, I promise you the filibuster will be nuked, and then we'll 0.98

00:46:08.280 end up getting a packed Supreme Court and DC statehood shoved down our throats. We need to

00:46:13.560 stand up and fight right now, make people speak. And it's absurd that we're having to pull teeth

00:46:19.340 to get these guys to put it on the floor. But look, we've made progress through the power of

00:46:23.880 the people, through Scott Presley, through Mike Lee, through Chip Roy, through Steve Bannon,

00:46:27.360 through Cleta Mitchell, and everybody who's been fighting. Keep it up. Let's put pressure on the 0.94

00:46:31.600 Senate. Let's drag them there kicking and screaming. Appreciate the support. If you want

00:46:35.860 to support me, chiproy.com, on my website, on Twitter slash X, chiproy, T-X, C-H-I-P-R-O-Y-T-X.

00:46:44.580 We've got to get this done. Everything is at stake for our kids and grandkids. And we got to get the

00:46:49.240 SAVE Act finished. We got to support the president. We got to finish the job. And then we need Texas

00:46:53.640 to be strong. That's why I'm running for attorney general. Yeah, I don't think, I think outside the

00:46:59.340 grassroots and the grassroots leaders, I'm not sure people really understand the depth

00:47:03.580 of where we are and how this is interconnected so many things i'd love to have you back on either

00:47:08.560 cpac or after we'll figure it out to really take maybe an hour get you on the six o'clock show and

00:47:13.660 break it all down but chip thank you so much for joining us here in the world all right god bless

00:47:16.860 steve keep it up thank you sir thank you sir i'm gonna have on tomorrow is that the next day uh

00:47:25.040 the uh the one of the guys i think from the wharton business project that's talking about a

00:47:30.240 We actually have $100 trillion of debt, not the $39 trillion, you think.

00:47:35.020 And it's a very sophisticated analysis about where we are.

00:47:39.600 But that's connected to the highly leveraged nature of it.

00:47:42.000 It's connected to the artificial intelligence bet.

00:47:45.200 We'll tie it all together for you here in the world.

00:47:47.980 That's one of the reasons we tell you to go to birchgold.com,

00:47:51.180 the end of the dollar empire.

00:47:52.180 Look, I got my hard copy right here, man.

00:47:54.180 It's a beauty.

00:47:55.040 End of the dollar empire.

00:47:56.380 The first seven installments are in here, the Patriots edition.

00:47:59.580 you go to birchgold.com promo code bannon most importantly talk to philip patrick and the team

00:48:06.260 especially since economic warfare geoeconomics coming to fruition in the persian gulf in the

00:48:14.360 strait of hormuz as the president says hey we shouldn't have to be doing this the allies in

00:48:19.640 nato and asia should be doing this and getting a little blowback like he said not a lot are signing

00:48:24.300 up. They're not saluting, let's say, when President Trump made the call. Understand why

00:48:30.420 the dollar is the backbone of the world's financial system and why it's under an onslaught. Check it

00:48:36.560 out today. Mike Lindell, I got you here. We want to talk about deals. But first off, you spent,

00:48:42.520 I don't know, 50, 60, 70, 80 million dollars, something like that, trying to defend this

00:48:48.240 country on election integrity. You've started so many of the big groups. You got Matt Meck at the

00:48:53.820 coalition at steve stern's gonna be on the show tomorrow to talk about their big call that's going

00:48:58.100 to happen on wednesday just give me a minute as you sit here and we're having to move heaven and

00:49:03.880 earth we got we got to get the war and posse you got to get the tea party patriots everybody's got

00:49:07.420 to get to the ramparts your cause of america to put the proverbial bayonet and these you know

00:49:12.640 put this put the sharpen in their back to move them along for action i mean it's a sad situation

00:49:19.620 is it has to happen but as chip boy said these are 80 20 and president and president trump

00:49:25.040 couldn't be adamant all day long he's been talking about the war he's been talking about the save act

00:49:28.960 he says he needs it and the country needs it your thoughts sir yeah yeah steve you know for five

00:49:34.340 years yes i probably 70 80 or millions i'm probably a good figure that doesn't count all the law fair

00:49:39.280 against me that's just putting money into the every place there was fraud and to try and secure

00:49:44.540 our elections that get to paper ballots, hand counted, same-day voting, voter ID, all these

00:49:50.360 things that we have to have or our country's gone. The president and I are in lockstep,

00:49:55.720 you guys. He knows this is the most important thing because everything comes from our elections.

00:50:01.640 We have to pass this say back. It isn't, could we, can we, or will we? No, we have to. There is

00:50:08.640 no. Like you say, it's an 80-20, probably even 85-15. Does this get rid of the machines to

00:50:17.260 paper ballots, hand counted? No. But this opens the door to finally getting our elections secure,

00:50:24.120 which if you remember, Steve, when I ran for RNC chair, the RNC, they passed a resolution that

00:50:30.080 came out of that when I ran for paper ballots, hand counted, same day voting, voter ID,

00:50:38.640 And all this stuff was put in in the summer of 23.

00:50:42.100 And you guys, this is, I can't stress the importance of the SAVE Act.

00:50:46.500 Anybody you know, you've got to get the word out there.

00:50:48.960 If you know these centers, if you know anybody,

00:50:51.040 this should be the number one thing talked about in the world right now.

00:50:54.520 And that's where it's at.

00:50:56.380 And everything we fought for comes down to this, everybody.

00:51:01.500 Talk to me now about deals.

00:51:03.980 That's what I want to hear.

00:51:04.660 Yeah, and you guys, with MyPillow, MyPillow was attacked huge for this.
