00:00:00.000 the Schumer said Democrats support a voter ID bill. Why? It's a trap. Like the SAVE Act has
00:00:06.780 nothing to do with, it's really about citizenship. And so I feel like Republicans have backed y'all
00:00:12.200 into a corner and y'all are like, yeah, now we'll do a national voter ID bill when,
00:00:18.200 what in the world is that since we're the Democrats support voter ID?
00:00:21.040 Well, what I'm saying is, it's fine. I can tell you in Nevada, we have to
00:00:25.040 have a signature verification when you go vote.
00:00:27.320 Which is fine.
00:00:28.160 But that's not a national voter ID bill.
00:00:29.820 But that's not a national voter ID bill.
00:00:31.180 Why a national, are you going to vote for this if it goes to the flu?
00:00:34.400 No, no, I am not.
00:00:35.240 All right.
00:00:35.700 And I will tell you why.
00:00:37.480 Especially I want to talk about the Save America Act.
00:00:40.700 Well, I want to ask either of you and anybody listening,
00:00:44.180 would you like all of our voter rolls to go to the Department of Homeland Security,
00:00:48.920 Kristi Noem and Kristi Noem 2.0 possibly?
00:00:51.180 I got two words for that.
00:00:52.380 Hell no.
00:00:53.180 Hell no.
00:00:53.760 What are they going to do with it?
00:00:54.740 Then they're going to look at it, decide who's worthy to vote and who isn't.
00:00:59.300 And I took my husband's name.
00:01:01.620 I'm proud to be married 33 years this year.
00:01:04.440 Well, I have to have an order to vote.
00:01:06.280 First of all, you don't know who the DHS are going to purge.
00:01:08.680 You won't know until you show up to vote.
00:01:10.580 In order to vote, I have to have my birth certificate, which doesn't match my married name.
00:01:15.300 So then I have to get my marriage certificate and a passport and God knows what else.
00:01:20.140 Military IDs, not allowed, a bunch of other things.
00:01:22.620 and go sit in person all day long, and if I don't have the right things there,
00:01:27.060 they kick you out, and maybe you'll come back and you won't get to vote.
00:01:30.060 This is clearly a voter suppression.
00:01:32.600 They just don't want you to vote.
00:01:34.320 And it's not just women. 0.96
00:01:35.520 It's people in rural areas.
00:01:36.780 Every time you would move, you'd have to go in person to register to vote.
00:01:40.220 They won't take a real ID.
00:01:42.000 This is a citizenship test.
00:01:45.100 It has shown over and over and over, state after state, county after county,
00:01:49.960 that there is no voter fraud.
00:01:52.620 Because the reality of it is when they start to push back about voter fraud, Republicans just look and go, well, wait a minute.
00:02:00.120 This is voter ID national.
00:02:02.240 You said you would like that.
00:02:03.300 This isn't voter fraud.
00:02:04.420 That's not what this bill is.
00:02:06.160 Right.
00:02:06.420 And they're lying about it.
00:02:07.840 It is not what the bill is.
00:02:09.960 I don't think anyone has an argument about showing a driver's license, signature verification.
00:02:15.120 We do that in states all across this country.
00:02:18.420 This bill is not that.
00:02:20.340 It is a voter purge.
00:02:22.760 They're going to decide who votes and who doesn't. 0.62
00:02:25.100 Two drones, we don't know what type, spotted recently near Fort McNair,
00:02:29.220 which is the Washington Army base that is home to the current Secretaries of State and Defense.
00:02:33.780 Their detection was first revealed by the Washington Post,
00:02:36.500 which reports that officials believe the threat serious enough to have considered moving those two somewhere else.
00:02:43.560 Do we know much more about these drones?
00:02:45.140 Well, we know that they were spotted multiple times on one night a couple of weeks ago and that the first thing they did was they reached out to the FBI, to the Secret Service, to NCIS to say, were you doing any drone operations in the area?
00:03:02.500 because some of those agencies use drones, particularly if there's a protectee nearby.
00:03:07.640 All of that came up negative.
00:03:09.040 So the question was now burning, okay, so whose drones were they?
00:03:12.500 Why were they flying over this base?
00:03:14.140 And what were they capable of doing?
00:03:15.540 Do we know?
00:03:16.240 I mean, are we talking about commercially available drones?
00:03:18.320 Do we know?
00:03:18.960 So it's hard because it's at night.
00:03:20.500 And most of these sightings are made based on, you know, I heard the noise.
00:03:23.660 I looked up.
00:03:24.160 I saw the flashing lights, and I saw it flying by.
00:03:27.180 So a competent description of whether it was commercial, you know, like the normal ones we see people playing with or something more sophisticated.
00:03:36.880 We don't know. You see this. Do you see any sign from Donald Trump that he has an interest in deescalating at this point?
00:03:43.900 Or are the other countries in the region going to push him to a position where, look, you've started this.
00:03:49.500 You've just got to finish. He's the only one that wants to end quickly.
00:03:54.160 Israel doesn't, and the Iranians don't need to because they can continue the war. 0.98
00:03:58.940 I try to look to the people who still have a conscience, who still try to tell us the truth when they can.
00:04:05.280 Marco Rubio and Tulsi Gabbard.
00:04:07.320 When you watch Tulsi Gabbard, clearly she has something on her mind, which is what she believes in.
00:04:12.600 She doesn't want what she calls the neocons, the hawks, taking us into another war. 0.99
00:04:17.000 We're in another war, and she wants to say so, but she can't.
00:04:20.000 can. She has to go along with the team that she's joined. I think, unfortunately for her,
00:04:25.640 she's on a team that now is hawkish and she's not a hawk. And I think she'd like to speak her mind
00:04:30.940 when those hesitancies yesterday in that hearing are true. She doesn't think we're in the right
00:04:37.720 world and the right war. We shouldn't be in this war that Donald Trump campaigned against stupid 1.00
00:04:43.960 wars. He got the votes of regular people in places like Pennsylvania and rural areas because they 1.00
00:04:48.960 don't want their kids being taken into a stupid war we're in one now this is like gillian's island 0.98
00:04:54.380 we went on an excursion for a couple hours and now we're stuck in a real war it's not going to 0.99
00:04:59.800 end because the other two people in this war iran and israel want to keep it going think israel would
00:05:06.540 go it alone if if president trump woke up tomorrow and said you know what victory we're done they
00:05:10.980 wouldn't want they would want to continue i mean i think that that's clear whether we would put
00:05:16.280 the screws on on Israel to make them stop is a question mark in my mind. I mean, we might just 0.83
00:05:23.380 let them go. But, you know, look, what Israel wants is absolutely regime change or regime collapse. 0.66
00:05:31.500 They prefer chaos to having someone in charge. And that's why they're taking out every leader
00:05:37.220 they can find, which makes it kind of hard to negotiate back to Jeremy's question.
00:05:41.960 So if you want to negotiate at some point, you really can't.
00:05:46.220 I don't want to ascribe too much strategy to the Trump administration, but I think they would have liked to see a positive outcome.
00:05:57.000 However you define that, you know, the fall of the regime, the, you know, Iranian people getting a better new leadership and then, you know, prosperity and building Trump hotels across the region.
00:06:09.360 In contrast, it seems very much, and we've read it from many analysts, Israeli analysts, who describe the Israeli strategy and who describe Netanyahu's thinking.
00:06:21.240 In contrast, you have there a plan for what seems to be constant chaos.
00:06:27.540 And I have to say that the Israeli and the Iranian vision for the region are starting to really look alike.
00:06:34.280 chaos forever, war, war, war until victory, however you define that. But I think it's
00:06:42.320 important to understand that the way this all started back in the 80s in Lebanon in 1982 when
00:06:49.680 Israel invaded Lebanon and collided with the Iranian revolution and propelled or ignited 0.67
00:06:56.400 Iran's sort of regional architecture of proxy militias, etc. Israel often thinks it has a
00:07:04.260 a tactical victory or a strategic victory, but there is no diplomacy behind it. And then it
00:07:11.200 creates the next iteration of the threat. You know, it got rid of the Palestinians in Lebanon 1.00
00:07:17.580 in 1982. We got Hezbollah. If Israel decides that the chaos is the way forward and land grabs in 0.98
00:07:25.900 Lebanon or in Syria on the Golan Heights are the way forward, you run the risk that you breathe 0.95
00:07:31.700 life into groups like Hezbollah and others and create more of such threats to Israel, 0.83
00:07:38.280 but also to the region's stability.
00:07:41.120 What do you think is important for viewers to know just in the last 24 hours or so what's going on?
00:07:45.740 I think what's important for me is that this idea that we can somehow bomb these Iranians 1.00
00:07:53.640 into a negotiation or into capitulation is not understanding the Iranians at all.
00:08:01.000 And I think that after we hit Karg Island, we saw them step up in terms of escalation.
00:08:07.580 They hit UAE's Fujairah port right here outside the strait.
00:08:12.260 They hit, you know, refineries.
00:08:15.200 And so then just, you know, a day and a half ago, whenever it was, and we hit the Israelis hit the South Pars, right? 1.00
00:08:23.060 The largest natural gas field in the world that's shared with Qatar.
00:08:27.200 But we hit the Israelis hit that. 1.00
00:08:29.220 The escalation has been way another notch up, right?
00:08:33.880 And they're hitting all the upstream things.
00:08:36.480 This LNG plant that they hit in gutter, it might take three to five years to fix it.
00:08:44.060 This could be a huge, huge problem for us, for the world.
00:08:49.140 And so I just don't understand.
00:08:51.060 It's like, you know, what's the saying?
00:08:52.880 You know, where the definition of insanity is when you do the same thing and you expect a different outcome.
00:08:59.840 We we did CARG. They escalated. We Israelis did Southpars. They escalated.
00:09:06.540 This is where we're at. And I just think that we we are failing to see the enemy here.
00:09:12.100 Trump this year wants to win on affordability when you spend 200 billion dollars in addition to an already incredible national debt.
00:09:21.020 On top of all of that, another $200 billion, you're going to drive up prices, not just oil prices, across the board.
00:09:28.960 When you spend more money, the government, GDP driving things, you're going to have inflation.
00:09:35.560 You're going to have affordability problems.
00:09:37.700 And this is going to be true right through, hey, God, it's already practically April.
00:09:42.980 We've got election in November.
00:09:44.200 You don't think we're going to have inflation in November because of this war?
00:09:47.900 And also we're shorthanding. We're killing Iran again. I mean, Ukraine. I mean, we used to help Ukraine with the sanctions on Russia. They're gone. No more oil sanctions on Russia. So we're paying for one more by killing a chance for our friend. I think it's our friend Ukraine in Europe.
00:10:08.580 I mean, look, we just are ending a week where he said he was shocked that Iran lashed out at the region in spite of the fact that it was predicted that Iran would lash out at the region.
00:10:18.480 We've had reporting from The Wall Street Journal that General Cain, chairman of the Joint Chiefs, warned him about closing the Straits, and he brushed through the Strait of Hormuz, and he brushed through that warning.
00:10:29.560 You've seen him flailing, lashing out at NATO allies, angry at them, and then saying that we don't need them.
00:10:34.920 None of this communicates the calm conviction of a person who's who's orchestrating a plan that is going well.
00:10:42.640 And that's but what I said in the piece is we have seen military dominance in this confrontation where the United States has been able to establish air dominance.
00:10:53.340 It has been able to establish naval dominance.
00:10:56.380 And what he's hoping against hope is that the military's continued success will ultimately cover for his political failures, that he will be able to force open the strait.
00:11:06.780 He will be able to keep it open at minimal cost.
00:11:10.100 That's what he's gambling on, and that's what he's hoping for.
00:11:13.260 And yet at the moment, there is no sign that that is imminent.
00:11:16.560 We seem to be in a situation where we can achieve what we want to achieve over Iran, but Iran can achieve what it wants to achieve in the strait, and that is not good for us. 0.92
00:11:26.380 friday 20 march year of our lord 2026 we're absolutely jammed today we are going to be
00:11:33.420 going to the white house 10 30 the commander in chief trophy uh between the military academies
00:11:38.540 the uh awardee this year is the united states naval academy um it's a sports trophy we'll get
00:11:45.080 there president i'm sure is going to save a few remarks we're going to uh jump in there i'm gonna
00:11:48.920 go to the white house in a moment with uh neil mckay but uh breaking news just as we came on
00:11:55.280 the uh chuck norris the legendary chuck norris uh walker texas rangers and of course a icon
00:12:02.400 on the right uh just been announced by his family that chuck norris has passed away has died at the
00:12:08.360 age of 86 years old so we'll get more on that as we get more information but chuck norris
00:12:13.500 dead at 86 i want to go to neil mccabe neil you were up there yesterday we're going to be covering
00:12:21.400 capitol hill all day they tried this uh consent to get the just the just the voter id part because
00:12:28.600 the democrats were starting to fade yesterday on the save america and we started the cold open today
00:12:33.420 with the democrats the democrats uh tirade against its voter suppression its voter purging
00:12:40.080 your sense on capitol hill of of i know we're going to pick it back up but i've talked to
00:12:45.060 clita and jenny beth they're going to join us this evening and tomorrow and over the weekend
00:12:49.200 as we cover this nonstop, but this is a process and particularly a legislative process. If you
00:12:55.700 don't want to get tied up in a messaging bill, you're going to have to grind this one out.
00:13:00.620 Your thoughts, sir? Well, there's a lot of thoughts, right? The Senate works on two things.
00:13:06.760 That's consensus or exhaustion. And right now, John Thune and Senate Republicans are at the
00:13:13.220 fork of the road of what they're going to do next. They don't want to hand the president a loss
00:13:18.560 on a cloture bill because they don't have the 60 yet. However, they could do a quick off-ramp
00:13:26.340 on the Save America Act and take up other business. That happens today at one o'clock.
00:13:32.380 Thune is going to bring up the Homeland Security funding bill. If that, if that, they get the
00:13:38.180 simple majority to take up that bill that moves Save America Act off the floor, they address the
00:13:44.180 Homeland Security, and then they have to do another vote or unanimous consent, which they
00:13:49.220 won't get, to bring the Save America Act back. But last night, John Husted from Ohio, he offered
00:13:57.540 the unanimous consent for a bill that would just be a clean voter ID bill, which Schumer talked
00:14:05.120 about saying Democrats support voter ID. Durbin told me yesterday, just off the Senate floor,
00:14:11.040 Democrats support voter ID.
00:14:13.720 It's just now when they actually put it to them, they decided to block it.
00:14:18.620 And it was Jeff Merkley from Oregon, the Democrat from Oregon.
00:14:21.860 And he basically made the point that if you do voter ID with secret ballots, it means it's not a secret ballot anymore.
00:14:29.140 Can we fiddle in the middle?
00:14:31.480 And Houston said, no, we're not going to do that.
00:14:33.420 So that's where it stood.
00:14:34.440 Yeah.
00:14:36.220 Hang on for a second.
00:14:37.100 So there's going to be they're going to take up the DHS bill today, get back on the get back on the Save America Act.
00:14:43.700 Tuberville tomorrow will offer the amendments. They put up amendments.
00:14:46.560 He'll offer the amendment. No men in women's sports. 1.00
00:14:49.360 We'll break it all down for you. Plus, the war in Iran next in the world.
00:14:53.340 Think about this. In 2006, $20,000 equaled roughly 33 ounces of gold at spot prices.
00:15:10.140 At today's prices, those 33 ounces of gold will be worth $165,000.
00:15:18.800 dollars. Smart Americans diversify a portion of their savings into precious metals. And that's
00:15:25.780 why you need to consider buying gold from my friends at Birch Gold Group. For thousands of
00:15:31.620 years, gold has been a store of wealth. And today, it is a crucial part of any balance strategy. Even

00:17:21.280 joins me john i mean i don't even know where to start but let's it's it is so complex right now
00:17:28.620 and so great you're doing such great investigative reporting let's start with what's happening in
00:17:33.340 southern florida with the deep because president trump he's fighting a war now uh in in the middle
00:17:39.980 east he's also fighting a war here of the deep state not simply from years gone by but currently
00:17:45.900 but let's talk about what's actually happening i know the audience sitting there going hey
00:17:49.200 where are my arrests where are my perp walks etc talk to me about comey brennan the house
00:17:55.280 south florida all of it sir yeah so a grand jury subpoena went to james comey uh from the miami
00:18:02.420 u.s attorney's office and from a grand jury that is currently in fort pierce florida being
00:18:07.200 supervised by judge eileen cannon uh that means that comey's coming in and being asked to be a
00:18:12.360 witness not about things he testified to that are in dispute and that he may have perjured himself
00:18:17.760 and that's certainly the allegation on the referrals against him,
00:18:20.600 but rather to talk about what he knows about the intelligence community assessment
00:18:25.140 that was the last thing Barack Obama did to try to hang another Russian shingle on Donald Trump's home
00:18:31.240 as Barack Obama was leaving office.
00:18:34.120 That's the assessment that said that the intelligence community assesses
00:18:37.700 that Vladimir Putin tried to help Donald Trump win the election.
00:18:41.100 We now know most of the experts in the community disagreed with that assessment,
00:18:45.260 And the only way they got to it was by sneaking in the then already discredited Steele dossier and then using it to pin that part on there.
00:18:56.420 Brennan has always said he didn't want the dossier in the air and that he didn't rely on it.
00:19:02.980 That evidence seems to be or that testimony, those comments seem to be at odds with the evidence.
00:19:07.620 And so James Comey would know whether the CIA was asked or was bugging him to send over the Steele dossier so they could make this conclusion.
00:19:17.960 He becomes a critical witness. You could potentially have James Comey be a hostile witness against John Brennan and the indictment.
00:19:25.520 Meanwhile, federal officials tell me that the House Intelligence Committee is going to schedule a vote next week to vote out and send to the grand jury, send to the prosecutors, its contacts with John Brennan over the years so that all of those testimonies and private briefings can be viewed by grand jurors to see when and how and what Brennan said over the years about various issues that are now tied up in the weaponization.
00:19:50.680 At the end of the day, this part of the case, which is only a small part of the case, is looking at one element of the intelligence community being politically weaponized.
00:20:00.500 In other words, did the intelligence community in late 16 and early 17 put its political viewpoints ahead of its country by declaring Donald Trump was being aided by Russia in the absence of such evidence because they wanted to create a political narrative that would hurt Donald Trump?
00:20:17.640 Now, that's directly connected to the second issue we've been talking about the last week, which was did that same intelligence community four years later in another election and in the aftermath of another election, once again, put politics before country by trying to keep secret from President Trump, from the Congress, from the American public evidence it had that state vote, multiple states, voter data registration had been penetrated and obtained and analyzed by
00:20:47.640 China. And when that revelation occurred in Great Britain, it was a national scandal over the seas
00:20:53.540 across the pond. It probably should be a national scandal here, but we were kept from that knowledge
00:20:58.740 for six years. And we now know from the documents the intelligence ombudsman made public that the
00:21:06.360 assessment of the ombudsman was that they kept that China interference, election interference
00:21:11.260 data quiet and secret, even from the president, because the intelligence community didn't like
00:21:15.920 Donald Trump. They didn't like his policies on China, and they didn't want to give him data
00:21:22.480 that they thought would help him execute his China policy. Once again, putting politics before
00:21:27.600 the interest of your country, the interest of your commander in chief. So what's going on in
00:21:31.600 Florida, what's going on in Washington now, have a direct line, the same issue, a politicized
00:21:37.320 intelligence community that's not doing its job, not serving its president, not serving its country.
00:21:42.740 the um the politicized yes if here's one of the things that concerns me and i don't know how
00:21:52.040 we got to think through how we're going to put this but you you had the senate and the house
00:21:56.620 intelligence committee for the last couple days and people should know those weren't called
00:22:00.360 because there's these issues about imminent threat those are by statute kind of requirements
00:22:06.820 that they have to come in i think twice a year and give an update that's right to uh to the house
00:22:11.500 and senate it was it was noticeable that not nothing about this was raised there and and
00:22:18.380 the issue is i think that the political class and this is much republican as democrat they keep
00:22:23.420 talking about the save america act but they do not for two reasons number one the infiltration
00:22:28.980 of the chinese communist parties everybody knows all over dc with money the other is that they do
00:22:33.820 not want to go because they think they're they think they think they're feeding they think they're
00:22:38.160 feeding the maga animals about the 2020 election so there's two whammies on this right you got the
00:22:43.680 ccp involvement as intelligence and you got the we don't want to do it because then the the wing
00:22:49.760 nuts over at real america's voice war room adjust the news are gonna you know don't feed the beast
00:22:55.720 so so how do we it is the most important issue that we're dealing with because we're spending
00:23:02.720 all this time we're gonna cover it all weekend you know this john you're doing a great job on
00:23:05.800 on the on the save america act right and at the same time we're saying hey guys it's one thing
00:23:11.460 about voting but our existential threat enemies actually have access to all our voter data and
00:23:17.760 they're manipulating it and and and yet no one in a position of authority in the intelligence
00:23:23.740 community wants to really touch this publicly correct ah that seems to be the case i'll just
00:23:30.660 tell you some truisms. I've had questions pending for more than 10 days at the CIA that asked the
00:23:37.220 CIA, how many states and which states does the CIA know had their voter registration data accessed
00:23:43.040 by China? They know the answer. It's in their raw data to date. Haven't gotten those answers, though,
00:23:47.820 in fairness to the director, Director Ratcliffe, he did give me a statement saying he was looking
00:23:51.980 at this. And obviously, we got some declassified documents to break the first story. Tulsi Gabbard,
00:23:57.680 the DNI, has known about this information at least since September. I just want to say that
00:24:03.280 again. Kelsey Cabert and her staff have known about this information about China penetration
00:24:08.100 at least since September. That's at least seven months ago. The Save America Act wasn't even a
00:24:14.620 twinkle in the eye of the House, let alone the Senate, when the DNI learned about this. I have
00:24:20.840 made relentless and endless requests for that data to be declassified. I believe some of it's
00:24:27.140 been declassified, but it has not yet been released. The DIG, which has already been
00:24:32.080 disbanded, the intelligence advisory group that was looking at this, they knew about this for
00:24:38.700 quite some time. They were quite concerned about it. To date, none of this data has been given in
00:24:44.260 a way that Congress could process it and understand it. It's not been given to the American public,
00:24:49.400 despite President Trump's obvious interest in the story. He tweeted out the story.
00:24:53.360 He's been concerned about Chinese infiltration.
00:24:56.700 And as a result, what you saw in that scheduled hearing was the Democrats had their way.
00:25:02.520 They got to drive Iran, Iran, Iran, Israel, Israel, Israel. 0.99
00:25:06.000 And the Trump intelligence chiefs could have drove a very different narrative.
00:25:11.320 They could have turned those hearings on their head if they said, oh, by the way, we want to tell you about this.
00:25:16.440 There's no doubt they know about it.
00:25:17.920 At some point, someone in the Trump administration has to decide to take this bull by the horns and say, we're going to do this systematically.
00:25:26.000 Here's what the Trump administration has at its disposal.
00:25:28.900 These are facts, irrefutable.
00:25:31.160 They have a civil rights division of the Justice Department that's been reviewing state voter rolls.
00:25:36.180 According to Harmeet Dillon, tens of thousands of illegal aliens and non-citizens have made it onto the voter rolls.
00:25:43.160 Tens of thousands.
00:25:44.000 That's a big number.
00:25:44.780 That's not a few.
00:25:45.480 and dozens of those, at least dozens, have been confirmed to vote. We just indicted one of them
00:25:50.280 recently. That ought to be broken down by state and every senator should be given their data. Hey,
00:25:55.700 in your state, this many non-citizens are believed to have registered and this many
00:26:02.200 are believed to vote. This is why the Save America Act is important to your state and
00:26:06.440 your constituents. And then come in and say, hey, your state was one of the states that was
00:26:10.360 penetrated by China. Here is the raw intelligence report. You can do it in a classified setting.
00:26:14.320 educate these senators to the threats that they have been willfully kept from.
00:26:18.740 We know the intelligence community hid this from Congress.
00:26:21.620 By the way, when you ask the question, when could someone be put in handcuffs?
00:26:26.480 If the intelligence community did not properly brief Congress as required by law,
00:26:32.180 intelligence analysts could potentially face a criminal prosecution for not complying with
00:26:36.680 that aspect of notifications to Congress.
00:26:39.140 So we don't know enough to make those assessments.
00:26:41.620 But those are all things that Trump could do right now, right this moment.
00:26:44.320 But here's – and it's even at the – we're going to have the mass deportation guys on here later.
00:26:51.400 It's also, you know, there's an announcement or President Trump announcing or talking to staff that, you know, there were bad videos about mass deportation off it.
00:27:00.480 John, I just want you to hang for a second, and we may go to the White House, but hang, because here's the thing.
00:27:04.200 The stealing of the 2020 election and knowing that the Chinese Communist Party was in on it and was part of it and had and knowing that the apparatus, the apparatus has known about both of these events and both of these events and particularly combined is the biggest scandal in American history.
00:27:25.160 we actually put someone in office at the office of the presidency
00:27:30.880 that changes the entire direction of the country,
00:27:33.980 particularly we've got 20 million illegal alien evaders here
00:27:36.620 and everything else, the mess in Ukraine, the mess in Gaza, all of it,
00:27:40.760 and knowing that didn't happen and that this information was suppressed,
00:27:44.180 it's almost like the system, the system is saying,
00:27:48.580 yeah, you may have all this, but we can't go there
00:27:51.000 Because if we go there, and going there brings down the system.
00:27:56.020 John Solomon's with us.
00:27:57.340 Short commercial break.

00:29:36.820 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:29:39.420 this is one of the reasons we're covering the save america act so closely because in the next
00:29:46.620 hundred days let's let's just set the war aside for a second i know you can't but let's just set
00:29:50.640 it aside for a second in the next hundred days with this information about the war against the
00:29:55.980 deep state we're either we're either going to see a path forward or not john my belief and and the
00:30:02.140 reason is that this cuts to the heart combined with brennan and comey and everything this cuts
00:30:07.940 to the heart of who actually who controls this country do the people through a uh constitutional
00:30:16.860 republic as set up by our founders or to some apparatus apparatus that has come about since
00:30:24.060 basically let's say the second the first or second world war that now just sees presidents as people
00:30:29.880 passing through and they run the deal uh your investigative reporting has been we we we we've
00:30:36.660 brought the receipts, now are we going to actually get a hearing? I don't necessarily mean a
00:30:41.840 congressional hearing, but we're actually going to be before the nation get a hearing on those
00:30:46.440 receipts, sir. Yeah, that's a great question. I will say that in the last 24 hours, Senator Ron
00:30:52.840 Johnson, who chairs the most powerful investigative body in the Senate, the Permanent Subcommittee on
00:30:57.140 Investigations, he has called for the president to immediately declassify all remaining information
00:31:02.240 on this and get this to the American public. That is a very powerful voice. Ron John is very close
00:31:07.280 to the president, been very supportive. He's a rational voice, a CEO sort of mentality, just get
00:31:12.140 it done. That's the first thing. I think in the next 24 to 48 hours, we will learn that the
00:31:16.940 president's intelligence advisory board, currently chaired by Devin Nunes, will likely weigh in on
00:31:23.840 this issue and look at, did the intelligence community put politics before country? That's
00:31:27.700 a big issue. We just saw the PIAB have a very profound effect. It forced the CIA to retract 19
00:31:34.120 woke, politicized, non-based intelligence assessments that were made during the
00:31:39.240 Obama-Biden years. That could also happen here. Having PIAB and Ron Johnson at the point on this
00:31:45.800 is a very big, powerful movement. Now the question is, what will those in the intelligence community
00:31:51.720 do? Or does the White House have to tell the intelligence community, we're taking this over,
00:31:55.940 you send it to us, we will decide what to declassify. Now, over the next week, I think
00:32:00.640 we're going to learn some very important things. We're going to learn about some Ukraine meddling
00:32:04.060 in elections, at least an attempt to meddle in the elections, beyond anything we've already
00:32:08.800 learned about with Hunter Biden and other things. We may learn that the FBI was tracking a major
00:32:14.080 political figure for possible infiltration by China. I think we might learn about that in the
00:32:18.680 next week to 10 days. So the story is going to keep building. The transparency is going to keep
00:32:22.780 growing the official arms of the the republican party the senate the house and the white house
00:32:29.360 just have to grab this data put it into a narrative and drive that narrative if they
00:32:33.980 really want to get the save america that that's really the opportunity here that's up to them
00:32:38.420 they got to do the work the facts and the evidence are all sitting at their fingertips
00:32:42.180 john before i let you go um the new republic and i'm asking my staff to pull it off my getter if
00:32:49.640 elizabeth uh could get it to uh to uh my producers right here for a second uh the new republic had 1.00
00:32:56.160 an article yesterday and it is brutal it's talking about the democrats are already working
00:33:01.560 with law firms etc about uh about uh our defeat in the house and the senate this year and then
00:33:07.840 trump's mag is eventually getting crushed in the 2020 election and what's in store for all of us
00:33:13.180 and i gave a speech a year ago said hey understand these people play for keeps it's not like the
00:33:18.880 pity pat you see if the republican party these people play for keeps and they're gonna be sending
00:33:22.560 people to prison they're gonna bankrupt people and the new new republic lays it all out given
00:33:27.260 that and given that he's got the weight of the world on his shoulders and not a second to think
00:33:31.660 is the president of the states understand the scale of what's being laid out here that backs
00:33:36.240 up the case that the deep state from the very beginning from the first time he became a reality
00:33:41.520 on the political horizon has had one focus and that is to stop donald trump stop the mega movement
00:33:48.280 and ultimately to destroy Donald Trump and everybody around him?
00:33:51.400 Do you think the president right now, given everything that's going on he's got to focus on,
00:33:56.380 understands the movement we've made in this effort to show how to try to destroy him
00:34:01.360 and that if we don't strike now, it's over?
00:34:05.880 He's got a scar in his right ear, four indictments, and an extraordinary path to his second term
00:34:11.780 that I think reminds him every single day what the Democrats are capable of
00:34:15.960 and what they will do again if put in power.
00:34:18.280 He is clearly dialed in on the things that matter, and he's working on them as best I can tell.
00:34:24.480 I think the real question just comes down to, are the people around him loyal enough?
00:34:28.960 Are they focused enough?
00:34:30.280 Are they skilled enough to take the opportunity that's about them in the moment?
00:34:34.200 If I'm a Republican, I'm very optimistic about the 2026 election.
00:34:38.300 I haven't voted since I became a journalist, so I don't have any skin in the game other than covering it.
00:34:43.520 But if you're a Republican, you look at what's about to happen over the horizon.
00:34:47.280 You potentially, with the right strategy, could get voter ID and citizenship text.
00:34:51.800 You probably are going to win the Louisiana gerrymandering case, which will, between the next two elections, return 21 to 24 districts back to Republicans.
00:35:00.360 You may also get a massive victory that cuts off one of the Democrats' biggest advantages if the Mississippi case goes as expected.
00:35:09.860 And it's ruled that Election Day means Election Day means you can't have ballots coming in four, five, six, seven, eight days later.
00:35:14.760 Those are monumental changes to the election structure that Democrats have exploited that Republicans can now have on their side.
00:35:25.300 Now, to get that would be an incredible miracle for the Republicans, particularly in a midterm election.
00:35:30.940 Then let's throw one other thing on there.
00:35:32.760 If you start delivering the undelivered parts of the agenda, President Trump has delivered an awful lot.
00:35:39.500 But you've got election integrity still pending.
00:35:41.480 you got accountability for the deep state and the weaponization and the politicization
00:35:45.420 and you got to get the budget down i mean we're going to head towards three trillion dollars
00:35:49.760 deficit at the current arc we're going up you tackle those three things your base will be
00:35:54.380 highly motivated to come out donald trump will be on the ticket even though it's a midterm and
00:35:59.120 these changes these structural changes to elections which will return them to the way we used to have
00:36:04.100 elections back in the 70s 80s and 90s you can be very optimistic as a republican but the big ifs are
00:36:10.400 the things that the people around the president have to deliver and thus far haven't gotten it.
00:36:14.920 You know, the House and Senate, the leadership, they've whiffed on some big stuff. The people
00:36:19.640 around the president are currently whiffing on some big stuff. Now, that can change. I think a
00:36:23.920 lot of things are winning on. They got to win on these things. You could be very optimistic about
00:36:27.560 the 26th election. John Solomon, where do we go to get all your content, the shows, the podcast,
00:36:35.080 particularly reporting social media where we go thank you yeah justinnews.com is the website
00:36:41.720 jay solomon reports is the handle on all social media john solomon reports is the audio podcast
00:36:47.020 and i'm lucky enough to follow you every night right here on real america's voice at six o'clock
00:36:51.060 with the justinnews no noise television show which i share the stage with the amazing amanda
00:36:55.740 head so those are all the coordinates thank you sir appreciate you keep finding like i said in
00:37:02.700 100 days we're going to know they got the receipts is this going to be real or not because it is
00:37:08.720 shocking it is shocking in its detail um and what's to come is going to be even more shocking
00:37:13.740 i want to go by the way the white house got the camera up so the president may come in at any
00:37:18.560 moment i'm sure he's being briefed on certain things uh right now uh about the war so he may
00:37:23.720 be running a little bit late he's got the service academies there today uh particularly the naval
00:37:27.800 academy um i want to bring in bradley james bradley the headline of this uh and the reason
00:37:34.600 i'm doing this and the timing is so perfect i am going to have some people here to talk about uh
00:37:39.480 to talk about lindsey graham's political because we play lindsey graham's clips every day and um
00:37:46.080 you know it's it's almost it's almost surreal it's like he's playing a character and so that's
00:37:51.320 one of the reasons we play it it just drives people crazy we can't understand why the people
00:37:54.860 in South Carolina. The good folks there that are the beating heart of MAGA support this.
00:38:00.180 The headline of your story over at Breitbart is terrorist groups funded by Lindsey Graham
00:38:05.000 backed USAID closing Strait of Hormuz. Now, the president has just put out, there's another
00:38:11.160 report, the president's had some heated conversations with our allies about what
00:38:17.320 they're really prepared to do to open the Strait of Hormuz. And I think I can say that it's basically
00:38:22.380 performative and the president understands that we've just uh we're just sending now a marine
00:38:27.860 expeditionary unit from san diego with another 2200 fleet marines combat marines and this is
00:38:35.520 uss boxer which is has many more capabilities than the tripoli tripoli's coming from japan
00:38:41.020 boxers coming from san diego so we are putting at least in place a uh a a a a capability a
00:38:51.080 capability that the commander in chief will have the ability to either take cargile with an amphibious
00:38:56.180 and air assault or even take some sort of beachhead or bridgehead onto the mainland of
00:39:02.320 ukraine down by hormuz where they've got these rocket launchers and missiles and they just had
00:39:06.520 a 5 000 pound bunker busting bomb overnight two nights ago uh you walk me through your story
00:39:13.500 Because, brother, it is pretty shocking.
00:39:17.880 Steve, it is shocking, if not terribly surprising, when you look at the long history of our
00:39:24.280 intelligence and military misadventures, especially in the Middle East.
00:39:29.060 But look, the same people, Lindsey Graham being the chieftain who encouraged President
00:39:35.700 Trump to strike Iran were also the same people who for decades have been funding so many of these 1.00
00:39:44.280 groups in the Middle East who are now siding with Iran. It's truly remarkable the way this 0.92
00:39:52.380 has unfolded. There have been millions of dollars that have come from American taxpayers and ended
00:39:59.500 up in the coffers of Hamas, most of it through USAID. Lindsey Graham, going back to 15 years
00:40:07.480 and more, has been the largest, the greatest champion, self-proclaimed champion of USAID
00:40:13.960 in the Republican Party. That money ended up in terror groups that were in this Iranian terror 0.77
00:40:21.460 network, and now they are responsible, or certainly contributing, to closing the Strait of Hormuz,
00:40:27.920 which is causing trouble, not just for the same American taxpayers who were funding Hamas,
00:40:33.800 but all over the globe. It's remarkable the way this has unfolded. And again, it also,
00:40:39.680 I think this is important. It raises questions on the status, the capabilities of the president's
00:40:47.220 advisors in the Republican Party. And it sends a very strong message that Republicans have a long
00:40:53.240 way to go until they get the kind of elected representation that they need in washington
00:40:57.980 because a lot of it is does not have president trump's uh best interest at heart and not the
00:41:03.320 american people's either well it's it's it's it's just not that this has been going on for a while
00:41:07.900 it's just not the the trump's and even maga it's like what the hell are we doing here usaid is
00:41:14.280 is presented when when uh when marco and even even uh elon and the doge guys but then
00:41:19.860 russ vote over at omb and and and marco when they started talking about usaid uh these programs
00:41:26.860 don't work this has been a slush fund now now we find out they've been they've been the money's
00:41:31.380 been used to suppress uh conservative voices right-wing voices they've been uh suppressed
00:41:36.640 people that are anti-globalists has been used in ukraine they it's a it's a slush fund for the cia 0.91
00:41:42.720 and paramilitary activity and and i want to be specific here lindsey i mean it's almost like
00:41:48.360 lindsey graham thinks this is like charlie wilson's war and i know that was done the book is much
00:41:53.000 more serious than the movie the movie's done as kind of a tongue-in-cheek like maybe black comedy
00:41:57.400 there was nothing funny about what charlie wilson was doing and for some of the good he did and
00:42:02.660 definitely there was some good there the damage was also quite you know the blowback and and what
00:42:08.280 happened there was quite serious and this is what is very analogous you get these guys that think
00:42:13.740 they're lawrence of arabia right which is really lindsey graham and you know they're all over the
00:42:18.480 map he's talking about you know perpetuity defense agreements with saudi arabia but now you see him
00:42:23.480 here and he's really building a guerrilla army or paramilitary throughout the world but particularly
00:42:28.540 here that now turns out if we have to do which is in currently in the planet they're trying to plan
00:42:33.960 on either a physical assault on karg island and to do that maybe get some sort of beachhead or
00:42:40.220 bridgehead up on the shores of uh of iran down by the straits of hormuz and i will tell you
00:42:46.980 those that place is like the surface of the moon and the people down there are like the like the
00:42:52.320 houthis in yemen they're they're bad hombres right and now turns out that you're reporting
00:42:57.160 we find out we've actually been from that we've been financing this the entire time and the
00:43:02.140 american people said they were hang on for a second i've got these young marine men and women
00:43:05.980 these kids going over there. And it turns out that this whole mess, and I think this is why
00:43:10.500 the people are so disgusted by the whole thing, because it's always hide the football, right?
00:43:15.580 You never really know who's on what side, who's paying for what. And I think taxpayers are sitting
00:43:19.540 there going, I'm just getting a $200 billion bill in addition to a $1.2 trillion defense budget. I
00:43:26.560 get a $200 billion butcher's bill here. And now I'm finding out that we're financing the bad guys.
