Bannon's War Room - Episode 5224： Massive Throw Down In Senate Over SAVE ACT

00:00:00.000 one of those moments. What is before us today is a test. A test of whether the Senate still

00:00:07.840 understands what it's for. A test of whether Article 1 of the Constitution still means what

00:00:14.960 it says that Congress possesses the power to right the rules of the road. A test of whether

00:00:21.640 this body still exists to defend the American people, strengthen the republic, and use constitutional

00:00:28.160 authority for the common good. That is why I rise in support of my substitute amendment

00:00:33.680 to the Save America Act. And it comes before us at a fitting hour in our nation's life.

00:00:40.740 America is approaching her 250th birthday. We were taught in schools to think of the American

00:00:46.480 founding as though it were unimaginably far away, sealed off behind glass. But 250 years

00:00:53.960 is smaller than it seems.

00:00:56.780 President John Tyler was born during the first Congress in 1790.

00:01:01.640 He was born in the very infancy of this republic.

00:01:04.800 President Tyler's last living grandson died only last year.

00:01:09.860 That is how near the founding still is

00:01:11.820 and how recent this great experiment in self-government remains.

00:01:16.920 And if the founding is that near, then our duty is that much clearer.

00:01:22.200 We're not the curators of a dead tradition.

00:01:25.660 We are the stewards of a living republic.

00:01:28.400 Our republic was founded on a daring claim that free people could govern itself.

00:01:35.680 Not that a free people could drift forever.

00:01:39.380 Not that a free people could live off inherited greatness while its leaders refuse every hard question.

00:01:45.200 Not that a free people could dissolve every boundary, mock every limit, and still expect to remain free.

00:01:53.520 No, the American founding rested on a harder truth.

00:01:58.140 Liberty is fragile, and so it requires structure.

00:02:02.120 Man has fallen, and so self-government requires virtue.

00:02:05.880 A republic requires citizens, truth, and the courage to defend both.

00:02:10.500 That's why this bill matters.

00:02:13.240 Some may say this bill will say these titles.

00:02:16.060 Some will say that this bill and all of its titles don't belong together.

00:02:20.460 That five-pronged, three-titled amendment is just a package or a wish list or a collection of unrelated priorities.

00:02:28.020 But that only proves they do not understand what time it is.

00:02:31.280 And they don't understand what our republic is.

00:02:34.880 The five-pronged and three titles of this amendment are united by one central question.

00:02:40.320 will american law still defend the basic conditions of self-government title one save american voter

00:02:49.120 says the franchise belongs to its citizens and voting should be secure title two save american

00:02:55.760 sports says that women's sports exist for women and girls acknowledging biological reality over 1.00

00:03:02.020 illegal fiction imposed by elite ideology title three save american children says that children

00:03:09.020 should be protected from irreversible harm, not handed over to the appetites, fashions,

00:03:14.500 and confusions of the age. Citizenship, reality, responsibility. Those are the basic truths a

00:03:22.600 nation must defend if it intends to remain a nation. Let me begin with Title I. A republic

00:03:28.780 has the right to distinguish citizens from non-citizens. That should not be controversial. 0.87

00:03:34.060 that should not even be difficult.

00:03:36.920 The vote is not a global entitlement.

00:03:39.860 The vote is not a participation trophy

00:03:41.900 for anyone who happens to cross our borders.

00:03:44.880 It is one of the central privileges and duties

00:03:47.640 of political membership.

00:03:50.480 If citizenship means anything,

00:03:52.680 it must mean something here first.

00:03:55.700 That is why requiring proof of citizenship 1.00

00:03:57.920 to vote in federal elections is foundational.

00:04:01.220 It is a minimum requirement.

00:04:02.520 It is so common sense in a self-governing nation because a people that cannot say who belongs to the polity cannot remain a polity at all. 1.00

00:04:12.800 The same is true for voter identification.

00:04:15.660 We're told endlessly that asking a voter to identify himself before casting a ballot is somehow oppressive, somehow unreasonable, somehow outside the bounds of democratic decency.

00:04:29.100 The American people know better.

00:04:31.380 That's why over 80% of American voters support voter ID.

00:04:37.820 Identity verification is ordinary in every serious sphere of life.

00:04:45.580 We require it for small things, for lesser things, for trivial things.

00:04:50.300 There's nothing wrong with requiring lawful voters to identify themselves 0.99

00:04:54.080 before participating in the elections of those who will govern the United States of America.

00:04:59.620 Honest elections require lawful voters, lawful ballots, and lawful verification.

00:05:06.040 And then there's the question of mail voting.

00:05:09.120 For too long, this country has been told to accept a system of mass mail-in voting

00:05:14.240 as though it were the settled inheritance of the American Republic.

00:05:17.880 It is not.

00:05:19.360 In its current form, mass mail-in voting is a modern phenomenon.

00:05:24.360 And in many places, it is a direct holdover from the COVID era.

00:05:28.480 COVID is over.

00:05:30.460 The emergency has passed.

00:05:32.400 The extraordinary accommodations of that period should not become the permanent architecture of American elections.

00:05:39.520 For most of our history, the presumption was simple.

00:05:42.680 If you could vote in person, you voted in person.

00:05:45.800 You appeared before lawful election officials.

00:05:48.600 Your identity could be verified.

00:05:50.140 Your ballot could be secured.

00:05:51.960 The chain of custody could be protected.

00:05:54.220 The people could trust what they were seeing.

00:05:56.700 That is not cruelty. That is not oppression. That is what Republican government looks like.

00:06:03.820 Now, of course, there are those who are unable to vote in person, and they should be helped.

00:06:09.120 Military voters should be helped. Individuals with disabilities should be helped. Those who

00:06:14.280 are sick should be helped. Caregivers with real burdens should be helped. Those with genuine,

00:06:19.840 genuine, I should say, qualifying hardships should be helped. But accommodation should remain the

00:06:25.760 exception, not the organizing principle of the whole system, because voting is not a consumer

00:06:31.860 transaction. The highest values in election administration should be on legitimacy,

00:06:37.720 public confidence, and trust. Not so long ago, even Democrats shared these values.

00:06:44.180 The Carter-Baker Commission, formed by former Democrat President Jimmy Carter and former

00:06:49.120 Republican Secretary of State James Baker III, made many of the recommendations that my amendment

00:06:54.280 promotes. Voter ID, proof of citizenship, and limiting mail-in balloting. Democrat senators

00:07:01.840 may not support these provisions, but their voters do. 71% of self-identified Democrats support

00:07:09.340 voter ID. But free people should want its elections to be visible, accountable, and resistant to bad

00:07:16.520 actors. That is what Title I is trying to restore. Not the denial of lawful voting, but the integrity

00:07:25.640 of lawful voting. Not confusion, but confidence. Not looseness, but legitimacy. I know this issue

00:07:33.540 because I have experienced these fights myself. When I served as Missouri's Attorney General,

00:07:39.320 I fought in court and defended our state's election integrity laws against a coordinated

00:07:44.380 assault from the left in 2020. The left's dark money-funded elections super lawyers

00:07:49.560 did not merely challenge one rule here or there. They challenged the very idea that we can get

00:07:56.420 serious rules to protect the ballot, deter fraud, preserve order, and sustain public confidence in

00:08:02.400 the vote. They came for the safeguards that made elections credible. They came for the principle

00:08:08.320 that absentee and mail voting must be governed by rules.

00:08:13.540 They came for the simple proposition that the people are entitled not only to cast a ballot,

00:08:19.220 but to trust the system by which ballots are cast, handled, counted, and certified.

00:08:24.720 And Missouri won.

00:08:26.320 We defended the truth that election law is the framework by which free people govern itself.

00:08:32.460 Election law isn't the architecture, election law isn't the arcane inconvenience to be brushed aside whenever the left sees a tactical advantage.

00:08:42.240 We defended the proposition that deadlines matter because finality matters.

00:08:48.500 We defended ballot security because legitimacy matters.

00:08:51.840 We defended verification requirements because public trust matters.

00:08:55.640 We defended the authority of the people acting through their laws to insist that elections be honest, orderly, and worthy of confidence, and Missouri won.

00:09:06.360 That fight has taught me something I've never forgotten.

00:09:09.800 The fight over election integrity is about more than mechanics or procedure.

00:09:13.840 Rather, it's about whether we still have the moral confidence to defend the elementary conditions of self-government.

00:09:21.660 Because once every safeguard is treated as suspect,

00:09:24.780 once every verification measure is denounced as oppression,

00:09:27.900 once every effort to secure the ballot is caricatured as hostility to democracy,

00:09:32.940 what is really under attack is the public's faith that elections are fair, lawful, and real.

00:09:39.500 So when I speak today about voter ID, proof of citizenship, and limits on mass mail voting,

00:09:44.480 I do so from experience.

00:09:46.860 I've fought these battles before.

00:09:48.520 I've seen the pressure campaign to dissolve the rules that protect the vote.

00:09:53.360 I've seen how quickly common sense is denounced when it stands in the way of ideological ambition.

00:10:00.200 I've seen when the public officials are willing to stand firm, and when you do that, you can win.

00:10:06.780 That is what Title I and Saving American Voters is all about.

00:10:09.720 It's not extreme. It's not novel.

00:10:12.120 It's the restoration of an old and necessary principle that in a republic, the vote must be lawful, secure, and worthy of confidence of the American people.

00:10:22.560 Now let me turn to Title II.

00:10:23.780 If the law cannot defend women from men acting as women, it cannot defend reality. 0.61

00:10:31.880 Women's sports exist because men and women are not the same. 1.00

00:10:35.860 That is biological reality.

00:10:38.500 It is moral reality.

00:10:40.620 It's the plain reality on which fair competition depends.

00:10:44.480 And when the law refuses to recognize that reality,

00:10:48.420 the category of women's sports becomes fraudulent.

00:10:52.180 Girls are told to surrender fairness. 1.00

00:10:55.360 They're told to surrender privacy.

00:10:57.960 They're told to surrender safety.

00:10:59.560 They're told to surrender recognition.

00:11:02.480 And they're told to do all of this

00:11:04.580 so the ruling class can flatter itself

00:11:07.620 for its own moral sophistication.

00:11:10.020 The state has no right to impose that sacrifice.

00:11:14.220 I have two daughters.

00:11:15.680 They both love sports.

00:11:17.820 But this is more than just about sports.

00:11:20.520 It's about whether the law is still going to reflect reality

00:11:23.820 or whether it will be conscripted into enforcing a falsehood.

00:11:29.640 It is about whether a civilization still possesses enough moral competence to say,

00:11:33.820 what is the truth?

00:11:35.500 And that's not cruelty.

00:11:37.580 It's about whether we still believe that girls deserve a realm of fair competition that is actually their own.

00:11:44.220 A serious republic does not ask girls to bear the cost of elite confusion. 0.99

00:11:50.100 A serious republic tells the truth about the world and builds laws on that truth.

00:11:56.040 That is what Title II does.

00:11:57.400 Now let me turn to Title III.

00:11:58.640 A decent nation protects children.

00:12:02.680 Children are not ideological property.

00:12:05.640 Children are not experimental material.

00:12:08.560 Children are not raw material for the ambitions of activists, for the cowardice of institutions,

00:12:15.000 or for the self-indulgence of adults who've forgotten the law exists first to defend those who need protection.

00:12:21.620 There are lines that a humane society does not cross.

00:12:27.160 Irreversible medical interventions on minors for ideological ends are one of those lines.

00:12:32.800 A child in distress needs guidance, protection, patience, love, stability, truth.

00:12:41.940 A child in distress does not need a civilization so morally exhausted that it answers confusion with scalpels, sterilization, and permanent medicalization.

00:12:53.680 The burden of uncertainty should favor preserving the child, not fundamentally remaking the child.

00:13:00.620 Too often our ruling class have preferred euphemism to honesty here.

00:13:05.700 We're told this is compassion.

00:13:07.280 We're told this is care.

00:13:08.740 We're told that the enlightened position is to ratify distress with irreversible harm.

00:13:14.600 It is not compassion to mutilate what cannot be restored.

00:13:17.700 It is not compassion to medicalize what may pass.

00:13:21.800 It is not compassion to turn children into lifelong patients

00:13:24.760 before they're old enough to understand what is being taken from them permanently.

00:13:29.800 That is not mercy. It is cruelty masked in liberation.

00:13:35.720 A republic worthy of the name protects children from adult passions, from ideological capture, and from the fashionable madness of the age.

00:13:46.640 That is what Title II is trying to do.

00:13:49.620 And that's why these three titles belong together.

00:13:52.560 Because this amendment is more than a list of 80-20 issues that the American people are demanding.

00:13:57.540 The Save America Act is the defense of the elementary truths on which Republican life, small r, still depends.

00:14:06.140 America belongs to its citizens.

00:14:08.420 Men and women are real.

00:14:09.780 Children should be protected from permanent harm.

00:14:12.260 If a nation will not defend these truths, it will not defend truth for very long.

00:14:18.680 If a nation will not defend these boundaries, it will not keep any boundary for long.

00:14:24.420 And that brings me to this chamber itself.

00:14:28.220 Americans still love Mr. Smith Goes to Washington for a reason.

00:14:33.220 They love it because they still want to believe something about this institution.

00:14:37.800 They want to believe that the Senate, a uniquely American invention, can be used for the common good.

00:14:44.840 They still want to believe that conviction can defeat cynicism.

00:14:50.060 They want to believe that a man can come here and fight for his country rather than merely manage its decline.

00:14:57.540 Well, here's our chance to prove that hope is not foolish.

00:15:02.220 The Senate is not a museum.

00:15:05.380 It is not a visiting angel's retirement village for proceduralism.

00:15:11.060 It is not here merely to confirm nominees, pass omnibuses, and fund the legislative achievements of long-dead men

00:15:18.640 while the living nation loses confidence in its own government.

00:15:22.240 The United States Senate is here to legislate in defense of the American people.

00:15:27.540 The Senate is here to draw lines.

00:15:30.960 The Senate is here to make judgments.

00:15:33.540 The Senate is here to govern.

00:15:35.440 So the question for this chamber is really simple.

00:15:39.020 Are we here to govern or merely preside?

00:15:43.280 Are we here to act for the people or simply explain why action is impossible?

00:15:49.680 Are we here to use power rightly or merely to congratulate ourselves for the restraint

00:15:56.040 while the country pays the price, because the stakes here are plain.

00:16:02.480 We see distrust in elections. We see the collapse of more clarity.

00:16:07.340 We're seeing girls told to accept injustices as progress. 0.99

00:16:10.820 We're seeing children offered up to the altar of extreme ideology.

00:16:15.120 We're seeing a governing class that refuses to draw any line until the line has already been erased.

00:16:20.620 And republics don't usually fall in one dramatic stroke.

00:16:24.340 They weaken when truth is no longer defended.

00:16:27.440 They weaken when citizenship is diluted.

00:16:29.760 They weaken when institutions lose the will to govern.

00:16:33.340 They weaken when elites ask ordinary people to live under conditions they themselves know are disordered.

00:16:39.260 They weaken when men without chests hold positions requiring virtue and enterprise. 0.98

00:16:47.840 That is what this debate is really about.

00:16:50.420 It's about whether the country still defends first principles.

00:16:53.840 It's about whether the Senate understands what time it is.

00:16:58.060 It's about whether constitutional power can still be used for the common good.

00:17:03.300 And as America approaches her 250th birthday, that question becomes even more urgent.

00:17:10.200 A republic approaching its quarter millennium should not be content merely to remember greatness.

00:17:18.040 It should show that it still knows how to govern itself.

00:17:22.320 It should show that it still has the strength to defend citizenship.

00:17:26.360 It should show that it still has the courage to defend women.

00:17:29.100 It should show that it still has the decency to defend children.

00:17:32.900 Article 1 is supported, is supposed to be the branch of action.

00:17:38.100 This body exists to do more than simply fund legislative achievements of long-dead men.

00:17:44.200 The legislative power exists to make judgments, draw lines, and defend our country.

00:17:48.420 The Senate should prove that it still understands that duty.

00:17:53.300 So pass this bill to restore integrity to federal elections.

00:17:56.960 Pass this bill to defend women and girls.

00:17:59.480 Pass this bill to protect kids.

00:18:01.540 Pass this bill to show the American people that we can still act in the defense of the American people.

00:18:07.440 Pass this bill because these are common sense reforms.

00:18:11.280 Pass this bill because Americans are tired of being told that their most basic moral instincts are somehow beyond the pale.

00:18:18.380 Pass this bill because a nation serious about the future doesn't apologize for governing itself.

00:18:25.260 Pass this bill because America at 250 should be more than some commemoration.

00:18:31.740 It should be a renewal.

00:18:33.540 The age of excuses should end.

00:18:35.880 The era of drift should end.

00:18:38.620 The Senate should act.

00:18:40.500 And the Save America Act should pass.

00:18:43.540 Mr. President, yield the floor.

00:18:49.300 Schmidt from Missouri, fantastic speech.

00:18:53.300 They're going to continue.

00:18:54.240 They did five in the first hour.

00:18:56.400 Senator Schmidt was first in the second hour.

00:18:59.140 I'm going to slip Mike Davis in here.

00:19:00.420 I got Cleta Mitchell also on deck. 1.00

00:19:02.160 Mike Davis, walk us through.

00:19:03.840 Tell the audience, describe what's happening right now.

00:19:07.380 This is historic, and I want to commend senators like Senator Eric Schmidt from Missouri,

00:19:13.520 Senator Mike Lee from Utah, many other good Republican senators, even Mitch McConnell, who joined his colleagues to vote to proceed.

00:19:26.400 They voted to get past that first Senate procedure to begin debates on the SAVE Act.

00:19:33.460 The SAVE Act ensures what will ensure that non-citizens are not voting in our elections. 1.00

00:19:42.780 It requires proof of citizenship to register to vote. It helps keep our voting rolls clean to make sure that non-citizens are not on our voting rolls. It requires voter ID. These are measures that have support with over 80% of Americans, including a supermajority of Democrats and even a supermajority of minorities. 0.99

00:20:09.140 These Democrat senators are pretending that this is somehow sexist and racist to require voter ID, like married women somehow can't get a voter ID because their name has changed or that black Americans don't have the wherewithal to get a voter ID like all other Americans.

00:20:29.980 Well, if that's the case, why do a supermajority of Black Americans support voter ID? Why do they support the SAVE Act? It's very clear what the Democrats are doing here. They want to make it easier for illegal immigrants to illegally vote and rig and steal our elections. 0.87

00:20:48.080 And the SAVE Act will help prevent that. This is within Congress's power under the elections clause of the Constitution. Congress can set the rules for federal elections along with the states.

00:21:05.140 And so this is clearly within Congress's power. There is no excuse not to pass the SAVE Act when it has overwhelming bipartisan support among Americans. There's no excuse for this.

00:21:18.520 And so the Democrats think that they're going to try to stop this with what they call the silence filibuster, meaning you have to have 60 votes in the Senate to end debates and vote on bills.

00:21:32.880 And I call that the lazy filibuster, because if you just threaten a filibuster in the Senate, it usually makes these senators say, OK, we don't have the courage, we don't have the energy to fight this, so we're going to move on to the next bill.

00:21:47.160 This bill, this SAVE Act, can pass without 60 votes in the Senate. It is simply not true that you need 60 votes in the Senate to pass the SAVE Act. You just need to wear out the Democrats. You need to make them debate. You need to make them stand up on the floor and follow the strict rules, Rule 19 of the Senate rules.

00:22:11.100 follow that strictly, where senators can only generally debate two times a day and one legislative

00:22:19.400 day on any given topic, and the debates must be germane. Remaining, they have to be about the

00:22:26.280 SAVE Act and not about anything else. And if you strictly enforce those rules, if you make

00:22:32.820 Senate Democrats stand up and debate and argue against 80 percent of the American people,

00:22:40.180 including a super majority of Democrats and even a super majority of minorities,

00:22:45.680 the Democrats are going to lose steam on this debate.

00:22:49.220 They're not going to win this debate.

00:22:50.740 And so the key is Republicans just need to continue to fight to make sure this passes.

00:22:56.700 This bill has already passed the House, and it simply needs to pass the Senate after we wear out the Senate,

00:23:03.280 Democrats and the president can sign this crucial piece of legislation that makes sure that

00:23:10.000 Democrats cannot continue to import tens of millions of illegal aliens so they can rig 0.91

00:23:17.480 and steal our elections. This is a red line. This is where Senate Republicans must fight and not

00:23:25.240 give up. And at the Article III project, we make it very easy to encourage our senators to stay in

00:23:31.520 this fight. If you go to article3project.org and take action, again, the war room posse superpower

00:23:39.520 is lighting up these Senate Republicans and even Senate Democrats, like we did with Ketanji Brown

00:23:46.780 Jackson's confirmation, like we've done with so many others. You take action, and the most important

00:23:52.820 action item right now is to stop illegal aliens from rigging and stealing our elections. Get 1.00

00:23:58.980 these Republicans to find and keep their backbones and pass the SAVE Act, get it to President

00:24:05.320 Trump's desk. He's already said he's not going to sign any other legislation until he signs the

00:24:11.340 SAVE Act. And so if these Senate Republicans or the Senate Democrats want appropriations bills

00:24:18.580 signed by the president, they better pass the SAVE Act. Mike, we started about an hour ago.

00:24:25.120 We had Ted Cruz. We've had Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Rick Scott of Florida.

00:24:29.480 We had Senator Danes Amon Atana. We had Senator Marshall of Kansas.

00:24:32.820 That was basically the first hour. The second hour started with Eric Schmidt, which I thought was one of the best speeches we've heard so far.

00:24:40.400 And now we've got this. I believe this is the first Democrat. I may have missed somebody at the beginning.

00:24:45.360 Does this mean the Democrats are just now engaged in this? I mean, what we've done here is called seize the floor.

00:24:51.500 We're on this bill in a very nontraditional way, but we have to continue to drive this until they wear out.

00:24:58.540 Correct. I mean, this is this is not about political nuance right now.

00:25:02.560 This is pure political muscle of who can stand here, because as soon as they fade for any reason, we can bring it to an immediate vote.

00:25:10.860 And we already know Murkowski said she's a no. Tillis didn't even show up for the rule.

00:25:15.440 So we're at 51 votes right now, but that would pass it.

00:25:18.240 Is this just a display in good old-fashioned political hardball?

00:25:23.440 We need to make sure that Senate Republicans keep their backbones here. 0.98

00:25:28.040 This is the most crucial piece of legislation.

00:25:31.080 Remember what Senate Democrats are doing.

00:25:33.920 They are filibustering a bill with 80% plus support among Americans, including a super

00:25:41.660 majority of Democrats and a super majority of minorities.

00:25:44.860 If we can't get the SAVE Act passed in the Senate, if Senator John Thune cannot get the SAVE Act passed in the Senate, he may need to find a different line of work.

00:25:56.160 If you can't pass legislation with 80 percent support, including a supermajority of Democrats and a supermajority of minorities, you're not doing your job. 0.99

00:26:04.660 So force these Democrats to get up there and argue like this Patty Murray has just done with Washington from Washington, that married women can't figure out how to change their voter ID so they can vote like they're too stupid. 1.00

00:26:19.540 You know, maybe they're just pregnant and barefoot in the kitchen and they don't know how to get to the DMV and change their ID like every other woman in America. 1.00

00:26:27.960 Or like the Democrats try to argue that black Americans don't have the wherewithal to get a voter ID like everyone else, even though a supermajority of black voters support voter ID.

00:26:39.620 These are crazy arguments by these Democrats. Let them make them wear them out and then get this to President Trump's desk with 51 votes, 52 votes, 50 votes.

00:26:52.660 Who cares? We'll bring in the vice president to break the tie. But this SAVE Act must pass.

00:27:02.340 Mike, before I let you go, and thank you for doing this, whenever I go to Article 3, you know, we've been the leader in pushing the Bobby Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard and, you know, Pete Hex, all of them, their confirmations.

00:27:15.700 Mike, you're a man of the Senate. You worked for Grassley forever, and then you were the lead sled dog on getting these very tough confirmations of Supreme Court justice done in the first term. How big a deal is this institutionally for the United States Senate right now?

00:27:30.340 Well, it's massive because generally, if you just threaten a filibuster, then the majority caves, they say, we don't have 60 votes, we don't have the time, we don't have the energy, we're not going to do this.

00:27:44.700 And that may work with legislation that is not this monumental. But when you're dealing with the SAVE Act, this is about saving America. Democrats are mass importing foreigners to replace American voters. 0.81

00:28:00.980 The replacement theory that the Democrats think is a conspiracy theory is happening.

00:28:06.500 And you're seeing it's happening because Democrats are filibustering a bill that has 80 percent support among Americans, including a supermajority of Democrats, a supermajority of minorities.

00:28:17.440 Why are they doing this? Because today's Democrat Party is so beholden to illegal aliens. 0.99

00:28:24.080 It's so beholden to foreigners and not American citizens. 0.81

00:28:28.580 The Democrat Party of today caters to foreigners and not Americans. We see this in New York City. In New York City, Mandami would not have won if we just had American citizens voting. But because we had non-citizens voting, we have this Islamist running New York City. 0.98

00:28:48.660 This is going to happen all across America. It's happening all across Europe. We have to pass the SAVE Act. This is existential to the future of America.

00:29:00.280 Mike Davis, one more time. Article three, where do people go and where they go for your social media?

00:29:05.480 It's article three projects dot org, article number three project dot org. Follow us on social media, donate, but only what you can afford.

00:29:13.700 But again, the most crucial thing the war room posse does is action, action, action.

00:29:19.040 Click on that. Take action and light up both of your home state senators, even if they're Democrats.

00:29:25.800 Take their confidence on the Democrat side and tell them they must stop illegals from illegally stealing American elections. 1.00

00:29:35.200 Pass the SAVE Act.

00:29:38.540 Thank you, brother. Appreciate you.

00:29:40.320 We'll be reaching back out for you later and tomorrow for this.

00:29:44.540 OK, we're going to take a break.

00:29:47.540 Amy Klobuchar's there.

00:33:05.600 doctor, wait for an appointment to get a prescription, sit in a waiting room. Then

00:33:09.740 you stand around in line at the pharmacy hoping they actually have what you need.

00:33:13.560 that's not convenient that's a system that doesn't work there's a better way and that way is where

00:34:17.340 And stand up for the fundamental right to vote. That always used to be bipartisan.

00:34:22.560 And the idea that you're going to make all these people re-register or register with a expensive

00:34:28.860 passport or birth certificate, that they can no longer use their driver's license, that they are,

00:34:33.900 their private voter data is sent to Homeland Security to go through some Elon Musk design

00:34:41.280 computer system. It's not what people want in this country right now. Thank you, Mr. President. I yield

00:34:46.800 the floor. Lindell for the governor of Minnesota. She's still in the Senate. We've had two Democrats 0.96

00:34:55.600 back to back, Patty Murray. Patty Murray of Washington. That's a beauty. And Amy Klobuchar.

00:35:03.100 So right now they're going to select either be a Republican or Democrat, obviously.

00:35:07.420 They're going to pick.

00:35:08.340 Cleta Mitchell, you're with us before we may have to go bounce to the White House for the ceremony with the Irish on St. Patrick's Day. 0.61

00:35:14.840 So far, Cleta, frame it for us.

00:35:17.660 Where are we and where are we going?

00:35:19.320 we are steve is that today is a historic day in the u.s senate because this is the first time

00:35:29.140 in maybe decades that um the senate is actually going to bring a bill to the floor and start to

00:35:37.300 proceed on a bill when they don't know in advance what the outcome is going to be

00:35:42.220 and that's called legislating and it's about damn time that they started doing that because what has 0.94

00:35:48.640 happened over the last couple of decades is that they've created this monstrosity process 0.95

00:35:55.480 where they just say, oh, we don't have 60 votes, so we can't do anything. Well, that's ridiculous. 0.94

00:36:01.620 There's a lot of law that's been enacted over the course of this 250 years of the nation's history

00:36:07.220 that did not have a 60 vote margin. So I think that this is historic. I'm cutting, look, I'm a

00:36:16.300 pretty good bomb thrower, as the posse knows. And I was throwing some pretty heavy bombs

00:36:22.380 and hand grenades at the Senate Republican leadership, and in particular, John Thune

00:36:27.580 a week ago. But I will tell you that I think that they responded because of what the posse has done,

00:36:35.180 because of what people have been doing over the last three weeks. And between last Tuesday and

00:36:40.060 last Wednesday, the people melted down the U.S. Senate phone lines, email systems, district and

00:36:48.540 state offices. And so they had the grassroots coming for them. And we had President Trump

00:36:53.560 saying, I'm not signing anything until you put this bill on the floor and pass it. And they

00:36:58.360 finally said, uncle. Now, they don't exactly know what's going to happen step by step. But here's

00:37:03.620 what I think is important for everybody. Keep making those phone calls. It's now time to listen

00:37:08.880 to the Democrats and listen to what they say. And just listening to Amy Klobuchar,

00:37:13.440 it reminds me of something, Steve. I was the lawyer, the national lawyer for the term limits

00:37:18.180 movement, for term limits for members of Congress. And I'll never forget, in 1991,

00:37:25.300 in Washington State, home of Patty Murray, there was a referendum on term limits for members of 0.90

00:37:35.320 Congress on the ballot in Washington state. The polling showed that 90% of the people,

00:37:41.460 Republicans, Democrats, et cetera, supported term limits. So do you know what the Democrats did?

00:37:47.400 They changed the subject and said, if there were term limits, you're going to lose your social

00:37:51.580 security. I want you to, and that is what they're doing right now. When they're talking about the

00:37:59.500 Save Act, Save America Act, when they're talking about women won't be able to vote. I'm listening 0.98

00:38:04.760 of Amy Klobuchar, she has

00:38:06.660 clearly not read the bill.

00:38:08.740 Nobody has to go re-register.

00:38:10.780 They're not going to read it.

00:38:12.880 Hang on, Cleta.

00:38:14.660 Hang on for one second. Andy

00:38:16.480 Kim in New Jersey is up there now, so this is

00:38:18.580 three Democrats in a row. At

00:38:20.520 first, I think they were a little hesitant and kind of rope-a-dove,

00:38:22.680 but now they're fully engaged. I think we're going to have a

00:38:24.600 quite interesting evening.

00:38:27.260 Remember, you've got to go

00:38:28.540 non-stop. As soon as you get off,

00:38:30.640 I think, yes, this is called

00:38:32.600 seizing the floor.

00:38:34.760 Cleta, John Solomon broke today and Glenn Beck did an amazing couple of minutes on it.

00:38:40.100 If I'll try to play that in the six o'clock hour that today we were with everything going on in Georgia, with everything going on in Maricopa County, just the first two of what of what Solomon has told us is five entities.

00:38:56.180 OK, with a big election fraud issues, Fulton County and Maricopa County and now huge fights.

00:39:01.880 They're in court fighting us. You know, the mediation in Georgia breaking news has has ended.

00:39:07.840 DOJ took a tough stance. Now we're going to be back into to lawsuits about this, but they don't want us to get the hands of the ballot.

00:39:13.480 Solomon comes out today and Glenn Beck did a perfect thing on April 20 and April 2020.

00:39:18.400 The Chinese Communist Party came in and intruded not into ballots, but into voter information at the beginning of the pandemic, knowing that mail ballots were going to become a big deal.

00:39:29.720 right they did it how can these democrats sit here and they're using every excuse in the world

00:39:35.080 you don't have a passport you don't have this i mean if if patty murray and amy klobuchar are the

00:39:40.040 best that they've got to start this thing off i think the american people are going to get a real

00:39:44.640 education over the couple days particularly when solomon tells us there's more information coming

00:39:50.880 out about the chinese communist party active involvement in in voter rolls and voter information

00:39:57.280 social security numbers, all of it, ma'am. It's absolutely true, Steve. I mean, why do you think

00:40:04.800 they have not wanted us to talk about this for five years? Why do you think they have gaslighted

00:40:10.340 us for five years? Why do you think they have called us names for five years? Election deniers,

00:40:16.020 cost people their jobs, cost people their law firm partnerships like me, like people that worked with

00:40:20.700 me in Georgia and all across the country. Why do you think they've done that? Because they thought

00:40:26.460 they were going to silence us. They were going to shut us all up. And now they're saying,

00:40:31.080 why are you looking, trying to look at all these ballots from Fulton County? Why do you want these

00:40:35.360 records from Maricopa County? That's all been litigated. Nothing to see here. No, none of it

00:40:40.540 has been litigated. None of it has been looked at. And if they think that they're going to shut us

00:40:45.380 down by continuing to call us names and say, we're, you know, we're just conspiracy theorists.

00:40:50.940 Well, you know what? There was a conspiracy. And here's, let me just give you one example in Georgia.

00:40:56.460 In Georgia, the Secretary of State, the Republican, Brad Ravensburger, there's no authority for

00:41:04.100 him to have done what he did.

00:41:05.920 He sent an absentee ballot application to everyone on the voter rolls in Georgia in

00:41:12.660 the spring of 2020 because of the pandemic, because of COVID.

00:41:18.720 There's no authority for him to have done that.

00:41:21.000 And then he said, here, check this box that he won automatic absentee ballot for the general

00:41:25.860 election.

00:41:26.460 That is a specific violation of Georgia state law, but he did that, and there were hundreds

00:41:31.840 of thousands of mail ballots.

00:41:33.340 There was no signature verification.

00:41:36.280 None of that has been litigated because our election contest filed for President Trump

00:41:41.380 was never heard in court, and all the things, the complaints that people have filed with

00:41:45.700 the state election board for the last five years in Georgia have either been tossed aside.

00:41:51.580 Attorney General Chris Carr, who's in, I don't even know if he's breathing, but he has done

00:41:56.660 nothing to investigate. Brad Raffensperger investigated himself and found no problems.

00:42:01.760 And now we have a good state election board. But look, none of these things have been

00:42:06.320 investigated. None of these things have been litigated. And we just have to keep making

00:42:10.180 noise. But these Democrats, here's a question that I have. Ron Wyden made a big speech on the

00:42:17.720 floor of the U.S. Senate in July of 2019, saying he and his congressional colleagues had been

00:42:23.900 briefed by intelligence authorities about intrusion into and plans to interfere with

00:42:30.940 the 2020 election. Ron Wyden gave a floor speech on the Senate, saying this is very scary. We need

00:42:39.520 to pay attention to this. He introduced a bill. He had 16 Democrats who co-sponsored it. I went

00:42:45.760 and looked it up a few months ago and said, I like this bill.

00:42:49.140 I want to put it in the Save America Act.

00:42:51.940 Let's put it in there so that we can protect all the things that we talk about,

00:42:58.400 the Democrats used to worry about.

00:43:00.720 So Amy Klobuchar is right.

00:43:03.840 Voting used to be, and voting support and election integrity,

00:43:07.380 that used to be bipartisan.

00:43:08.600 Not anymore.

00:43:09.860 The Democrats want to get rid of everything.

00:43:11.680 What Eric Senator Smith said was exactly right.

00:43:13.820 they want to get rid of any safeguard whatsoever. And just because the law says you can't rob a

00:43:21.880 bank doesn't mean that banks sit around and don't put bars on the windows and put the money in the

00:43:27.000 vault at night. And that's exactly the situation the Democrats have done to our elections. And we

00:43:31.240 have to undo it. And we have to listen to them. And we need the Republicans to keep this bill

00:43:36.260 on the floor for two to three weeks in time for the Americans' attention to focus on it's the

00:43:42.700 Democrats. They're the ones that should be scaring everybody by the stupid lies they're telling about 1.00

00:43:49.700 the bill. Well, if to do that, I believe they're going to have to stay up there totally. So we're 1.00

00:43:55.880 going to see that. By the way, the number for the Republicans are a number for the Senate, excuse

00:44:00.620 me, 202-224-3121. And make sure if one of you, if you're both of your senators and one of them

00:44:06.420 a Democrat, call. Give them the old what for about supporting this bill. Call them and let's 0.93

00:44:12.420 you some positive reinforcement to the to the republicans you got to stick with this we already

00:44:16.440 know murkowski said she's a no and tom tillis didn't even show up for i think the rules vote so

00:44:21.580 he's signaling to you he's a no he's told people i'm just glad he didn't show up but we need to

00:44:28.340 work on him from north carolina you know but he's not running again lisa murkowski has rewritten has

00:44:33.680 gotten the uh election laws rewritten in alaska that's the only way she can win is by manipulating 1.00

00:44:39.320 the process but um but you know what people rank choice voting repealing rank choice voting which

00:44:46.780 is what she helped put in that got her re-elected last time um it's going to be on the ballot again

00:44:52.520 to repeal it and man if if she if we can get rid of rank choice voting in alaska we can get rid of

00:44:58.840 lisa murkowski if you remember when you keep hearing all these people run around this is

00:45:04.880 MAGA. That's not MAGA. This is your MAGA. You're not MAGA. One of the central tenets of MAGA,

00:45:11.140 I can tell you, being here from the very beginning, and particularly in the firestorm of 2020, 2021,

00:45:16.960 2022, is election integrity. Some of the hardest, toughest people we have who've stood in the

00:45:23.580 breach over the last several years, risking jail, bankruptcy, throwing out of their law firms,

00:45:28.960 throwing other companies, having their families disown them, have been the patriots that have

00:45:34.720 stood in there for voter integrity. And right now, folks, you got to understand, we have a

00:45:39.060 massive national debate taking place on the Senate floor on this very issue of stealing elections,

00:45:46.620 and particularly stealing the 2020 election and how we're going to get around it. We've also got

00:45:50.840 explosive news coming out of now the intelligence agencies. They can't hold back anymore. You heard

00:45:56.340 john solomon today saying the white house uh the white house not maybe maybe after president trump

00:46:00.800 goes to china with she it's not going to wait we got to get it out there and it's getting out there

00:46:05.480 now so and you've got the and you've got these lawsuits in georgia and the and the situation

00:46:10.340 in maricopa county we have the convergence of three major elements if we're ever going to get

00:46:15.880 voter integrity if we're ever going to get elections that are fair and uncompromised and

00:46:20.820 not stolen we have to do it we have we have to do it we have to do it now uh cleta once you

00:46:26.480 once you give us where you're gonna go we'll get you back later and tomorrow uh we're gonna go to

00:46:30.940 the white house in a moment uh what do you uh tell us where to get you ma'am at cleta mitchell

00:46:36.540 which is on x uh and at ei watchdogs and that's where you can find we're going to be posting

00:46:42.320 things that's the election integrity uh network.org website election integrity network.org website

00:46:48.600 and then our social media is at EI Watchdogs.

00:46:52.820 So come find us and we'll keep you posted.

00:46:55.220 We'll get it up there.

00:46:55.880 Thank you.

00:46:56.400 We're going to cut right to the White House,

00:46:57.980 the President of the United States.

00:46:58.960 In a different sense, we're doing very well, I will say.

00:47:02.100 We're knocking them for a loop.

00:47:03.880 They can't have a nuclear weapon

00:47:05.140 and they now understand that very strongly.

00:47:08.080 But we have a great country

00:47:11.100 and we have an unbelievable military.

00:47:13.080 We have the most powerful military in the world

00:47:15.380 and people see that.

00:47:16.360 And I rebuilt it in my first term, and I didn't know I'd have to use it so much in my second term.

00:47:23.360 But the men and women of our military, I pay them my highest love and compliments.

00:47:30.760 Thank you very much.

00:47:32.200 I'm delighted to welcome everyone to the beautiful White House.

00:47:35.980 There's just no place like it, right?

00:47:37.580 No place like it.

00:47:38.880 And we have a beautiful edition that's going to be added on very soon.

00:47:43.960 You probably hear about it.

00:47:45.060 In fact, see that beautiful curtain right there?

00:47:47.860 That gold curtain.

00:47:49.500 That's going to be, it's like a knockout panel

00:47:51.760 behind that curtain.

00:47:53.400 And you'd be looking into a deep foundation, very,

00:47:56.000 very deep into the ground right there.

00:47:58.440 And then next time you come back, maybe the next two

00:48:02.040 times, okay?

00:48:03.220 Maybe not four next time, but by the second time,

00:48:06.980 you're going to see one of the most beautiful

00:48:08.480 ballrooms anywhere in the world.

00:48:10.560 You know, they've always, they've always wanted,

00:48:14.360 They've always wanted a ballroom at the White House,

00:48:16.460 so all the presidents for 150 years, they say, or more,

00:48:20.000 and they never had.

00:48:20.940 This is a beautiful room, but this is very small for,

00:48:24.400 you know, when you think about state dinners

00:48:27.040 and the things that we do.

00:48:29.040 So they put out a tent on the lawn,

00:48:30.880 and if it rained, it was a problem.

00:48:32.640 It was a nasty problem.

00:48:35.480 But it's a lot of work going.

00:48:38.620 I hear the piledrivers going, and to me,

00:48:41.420 I love the sound of those piledrivers.

00:48:43.260 My wife doesn't love it too much in the morning. 1.00

00:48:46.440 She said, will they ever stop?

00:48:48.040 I said, yeah, another few months.

00:48:50.540 But it was, it's really something that's going on

00:48:54.080 right over there.

00:48:55.080 It's going to be a beautiful addition to the White House

00:48:57.180 after 150 years.

00:48:59.140 But on this special day, we gather here to celebrate

00:49:02.540 an incredible feat of friendship between Ireland

00:49:05.680 and the wonderful place that we call the United States.

00:49:09.520 We call it America.

00:49:11.080 A lot of good names, but it's a great place and it's doing really well.

00:49:16.700 We've never done better.

00:49:18.140 We took a little bit of a journey, a little bit of an excursion over the last two weeks

00:49:24.720 because we thought we had to do something about very bad people that want to have nuclear weapons.

00:49:29.800 We can't allow that.

00:49:30.700 They would have had it.

00:49:31.420 If we didn't send the B-2 bombers in, they would have had it seven months ago, a couple 0.91

00:49:36.320 of weeks after that, and we can't let that happen.

00:49:39.680 So we did a little excursion, and we're way ahead of schedule, as you probably noticed.

00:49:46.360 And we've had, there's no, we knocked out their Navy, their Air Force, their anti-aircraft

00:49:52.520 equipment, their radar, and their leaders. It's been, it's been amazing militarily,

00:50:01.040 but it's something that had to be done. Unfortunately, I say, we don't do it with

00:50:05.340 But we've had a great country that's 250.

00:50:10.580 We're celebrating our 250th year.

00:50:14.180 And continuing the custom that began with President

00:50:18.160 Truman, we're delighted to host the Taoiseach, who is

00:50:22.060 a great gentleman of Ireland.

00:50:35.340 along with someone who's much, much more important,

00:50:39.620 his wife, Mary.

00:50:40.620 She's a lovely woman.

00:50:45.620 So thank you very much.

00:50:47.960 Thank you for being here.

00:50:49.220 It's an honor.

00:50:50.680 Well, the tishuk is far from Emerald Isle. 0.99

00:50:55.000 They should feel very much at home here in America

00:50:58.260 because so many things have happened that are Irish.

00:51:02.060 But it's often said that we have five times as many

00:51:05.620 Irish in our beautiful country than you have 1.00

00:51:09.440 on your wonderful island.

00:51:12.040 I mean, that's a pretty big statement.

00:51:15.100 But they love you.

00:51:17.000 And I think I won't say their first love.

00:51:19.620 Hopefully, it's a close second.

00:51:22.140 But they do love.

00:51:23.020 And St. Patrick's Day, we're here.

00:51:25.560 And it's very, very special.

00:51:26.880 It's always been a special time.

00:51:28.160 Even for me, it's been a special time.

00:51:29.920 I feel like I have Irish blood.

00:51:32.080 I'm not too far.

00:51:32.800 I have Scottish blood.

00:51:34.420 Is that good or bad?

00:51:35.320 I don't know.

00:51:37.100 I don't know.

00:51:38.000 I'm not sure.

00:51:39.460 But today's celebration, we're also joined by

00:51:44.160 Deputy First Minister of Northern Ireland,

00:51:46.880 Emma Little, Pingali.

00:51:48.980 And I want to just — where's Emma?

00:51:51.540 Thank you very much.

00:51:52.480 It's such an honor.

00:51:53.540 It's such an honor.

00:51:54.340 Thank you.

00:51:59.920 We met at the Capitol, and I said,

00:52:02.180 the relationship is very good.

00:52:05.460 That's good. Much better that way, right?

00:52:08.080 In the old days. The old days.

00:52:10.440 But it was really an honor to meet with you.

00:52:12.640 Thank you very much.

00:52:13.760 And thanks as well to members of my Cabinet,

00:52:15.960 including two Irish-American secretaries,

00:52:19.580 Sean Duffy and Linda McMahon.

00:52:21.740 Where are they?

00:52:23.980 Hi, Sean. Where's Linda? 0.98

00:52:27.100 Hi, Linda.

00:52:27.820 They've done an incredible job.

00:52:31.160 Transportation and education.

00:52:33.620 And it's sort of, they merged because Linda is

00:52:37.060 moving everybody back to the states.

00:52:38.800 So you have to use the term.

00:52:40.640 We're moving our education back to the states

00:52:42.860 where they belong.

00:52:44.100 And you have been unbelievable, both of you.

00:52:46.100 Thank you very well.

00:52:47.200 And another unbelievable person is Attorney

00:52:49.880 General Pam Bondi, my friend.

00:52:51.720 Where are you, Pam?

00:52:52.620 Where are you?

00:52:57.820 Thank you.

00:52:58.820 Thank you, Pam.

00:53:00.660 Secretary of Energy.

00:53:02.920 That's a big one nowadays.

00:53:04.220 Chris Wright.

00:53:05.020 Chris?

00:53:05.900 Thank you.

00:53:06.500 Thank you, Chris.

00:53:08.700 Thank you.

00:53:09.960 And Secretary of Labor, Laurie Chavez de Riemer.

00:53:13.400 Thank you, Laurie.

00:53:15.040 Thank you, Laurie.

00:53:16.880 U.S. Trade Representative Jameson Greer.

00:53:19.240 Jameson, we have a $40 billion deficit with

00:53:23.120 Ireland.

00:53:24.180 Forty billion.

00:53:25.340 We got to do something about it.

00:53:26.580 Where's Jameson?

00:53:27.820 Okay, please.

00:53:28.820 I'm looking at the little notes, and I'm looking,

00:53:32.220 you know, Bob, Bob, Bob.

00:53:33.320 I'm hearing all of the accomplishments of your

00:53:35.920 great leader.

00:53:36.620 But then I saw the deficit is $42 billion.

00:53:41.500 So they're going to have to buy a lot of our energy,

00:53:43.540 I think, okay, to make up with that.

00:53:47.000 And Administrator Kelly Loeffler, who is great,

00:53:49.880 small business, but small business is big business.

00:53:52.380 I'll tell you, when you add it all up.

00:53:56.680 We're also joined with some incredible friends of mine

00:53:59.940 and very, very powerful, but very great people.

00:54:02.860 Speaker Mike Johnson, wherever you may be, Mike.

00:54:10.660 And Senator Mark Wayne Mullen,

00:54:13.220 who maybe is going to be moving over

00:54:15.060 to a little bit of a different position soon.

00:54:17.360 Mark Wayne, where are you?

00:54:21.940 Nobody wants to fight. He's a tough cookie, Mark Wayne.

00:54:24.440 He was a professional fighter.

00:54:26.600 He was a brutal human being, but he's great.

00:54:31.320 No, everyone loves him and we respect him.

00:54:33.780 Also, Representatives Steve Scalise, Brian Stile,

00:54:38.320 Andy Biggs, Pat Fallon, Riley Moore,

00:54:41.860 Ronnie Jackson, White House doctor,

00:54:44.500 former White House doctor.

00:54:46.200 I'll never forget, they said,

00:54:48.440 who's the healthiest president?

00:54:49.940 Because he covered Obama.

00:54:52.860 He covered, he covered some others.

00:54:55.800 I don't want to say who.

00:54:58.040 But, and Trump.

00:54:59.500 He said, by far, Trump, there's nobody even close.

00:55:02.040 He said, by far.

00:55:05.080 Took a little heat for that, but that was okay.

00:55:07.340 Where's Ronnie?

00:55:08.180 Where are you, Ronnie?

00:55:08.880 Doc Ronnie.

00:55:09.880 Whenever I have a, hi, Ronnie.

00:55:11.820 Whenever I have a problem, I call Doc Ronnie,

00:55:13.940 and he works it out, you know?

00:55:15.640 He's a great guy, and he's done a good job,

00:55:17.580 Mr. Speaker, as a congressman, right?

00:55:20.120 He's been good.

00:55:21.260 and Rich McCormick and John McGuire and Beth Van

00:55:25.140 Dyn, all friends of mine, all warriors.

00:55:28.360 And we have a lot of big things coming up.

00:55:32.340 The biggest thing coming up is the Save America Act

00:55:35.480 in the Senate.

00:55:36.880 That's voter ID and proof of citizenship and no

00:55:42.280 mail-in ballots, you know, corrupt mail-in ballots.

00:55:45.080 We're the only country in the world that does it 0.98

00:55:46.920 that way, corrupt as hell. 0.98

00:55:49.220 And then we added two more. 0.98

00:55:50.560 We're going to be, I think they're going to be

00:55:52.360 adding a couple of more.

00:55:53.420 One is no men in women sports.

00:55:56.660 That seems like an easy one.

00:55:58.900 I believe that's 99 percent.

00:56:02.180 And no transgender mutilization of our 0.78

00:56:06.040 children. 0.96

00:56:06.680 None.

00:56:09.540 That's only polling at 98 percent, Speaker.

00:56:12.820 So hopefully the Senate is going to be able to get

00:56:15.560 that.

00:56:15.980 You can't ask for five better things.

00:56:18.720 I think, in terms of — and it's not politics.

00:56:22.160 It's really good for — it's so good for our nation.

00:56:24.900 I mean, who would not have voter ID?

00:56:26.800 Who would not have proof of citizenship?

00:56:30.400 And the only people who would want not to have that

00:56:33.900 are people that want to cheat.

00:56:35.500 It's very, very simple. We can't let that happen.

00:56:38.280 Some 1,600 years ago, the man who would become

00:56:41.940 the patron saint of Ireland — St. Patrick.

00:56:45.420 Have you ever heard of St. Patrick?

00:56:47.620 Voluntarily returned to Ireland after having 0.99

00:56:50.020 escaped enslavement there, and then spent 30 years

00:56:53.360 carrying the Christian Gospel, the Gaelic tribes.

00:56:57.840 You know the Gaelic tribes?

00:56:59.060 Everybody here knows about that.

00:57:00.700 I don't, but that's okay.

00:57:02.000 Because of — is that Kelly in the audience?

00:57:06.300 Do I see Kelly?

00:57:07.300 Oh, hi, Kelly.

00:57:09.240 We had a good time for lunch today.

00:57:11.820 That's the wife of a man who's extremely Italian 0.69

00:57:15.140 that I thought he was a wasp. 0.51

00:57:17.320 Our Speaker of the House is very, very Italian. 0.94

00:57:20.920 And I thought, I always thought he was a super wasp, 0.59

00:57:24.720 actually.

00:57:27.460 But because of Patrick, Ireland is now known as the

00:57:30.060 land of saints and scholars for thousands of years.

00:57:33.360 Christians everywhere have honored St. Patrick and the

00:57:36.640 legacy on March 17th.

00:57:39.640 And today, we remember his incredible deeds as we

00:57:42.520 celebrate our cherished Irish American heritage.

00:57:46.520 And it's a great heritage at that.

00:57:48.880 From the very beginning, America has thrived and

00:57:51.160 prospered and prevailed with the help of incredible people.

00:57:55.360 The achievements are amazing.

00:57:56.760 The amazing Irish-American patriots.

00:57:59.140 And many of you are in the room.

00:58:01.360 You know, these are very successful people in the room.

00:58:03.880 I know a lot of them. They have a lot of cash.

00:58:06.200 They've made a lot of money.

00:58:07.300 They got a lot of natural business instinct,

00:58:09.780 unfortunately. It's not easy.

00:58:12.040 Dealing with the Irish is never easy. 1.00

00:58:14.780 They are really amazing.

00:58:16.320 The Irish came with William Penn to settle in Pennsylvania.

00:58:20.800 They traveled with Daniel Boone, the great Daniel Boone,

00:58:24.820 to tame Kentucky.

00:58:26.700 And they, in 1776, was a man from Cork, Cork,

00:58:33.340 fighting in the Continental Army,

00:58:35.440 who became the first person ever known

00:58:38.200 as the phrase, the United States.

00:58:41.040 He came up with the phrase, the United States of America.

00:58:45.220 That's a pretty good phrase.

00:58:46.480 And Americans of Irish Heritage gave us the

00:58:54.700 steamboat, the modern submarine, the Model T

00:58:58.600 automobile, and many, many other things.

00:59:00.840 They designed the White House.

00:59:02.200 That I didn't know.

00:59:03.500 The Empire State Building.

00:59:04.840 That I didn't know.

00:59:06.840 And the New York City subway system, which is,

00:59:09.540 when it's operated properly, the best in the world.

00:59:12.540 it's actually quite amazing but people sort of have lost sight of that they gave us the works who

00:59:21.220 really have great geniuses f scott fitzgerald flannery o'connor and the late great william f

00:59:28.940 buckley was a great guy and they gave us heroes like apollo 11 astronaut michael collins really

00:59:37.320 fantastic man. I want to thank the Tshak for all of the things and all of those Irish friends that

00:59:44.380 he brought to the room with him. A lot of these are your great friends and accords to increase and

00:59:49.920 coordinate our space and all of the space program. We have so much involvement together.

00:59:55.840 It's, you know, Ireland is sitting in a very good location in terms of the shot. So he has a lot to

01:00:01.880 negotiate with but the united states will soon return to the moon we think it's going to be

01:00:06.880 quite soon and then we'll lead the world to mars it's something that i guess a lot of people want

01:00:13.560 some people say it's a lot of money and other people say it's progress and we should be doing

01:00:18.680 this is the war room we're going to turn it over now on main real american voice channel to john

01:00:23.320 solomon amanda head at just the news they're going to take it from here we're going to continue on

01:00:28.320 for the second hour of the War Room

01:01:15.080 Now is the time to resolve your tax matters.

01:01:18.800 With the national conversation around abolishing the income tax, the IRS is fighting back and proving it's here to stay

01:01:26.180 by becoming more aggressive than ever before.

01:01:29.580 They're sending out more collection notices, filing more tax liens,

01:01:33.680 and collecting billions more in recent years.
