Bannon's War Room - Episode 5312： Continued Fight For Election Accountability; UAE Asks America For Bail Out

00:00:00.000 Let me ask you about the mission, because every time I see President Trump, he says this repeatedly, that the election was rigged in 2020.

00:00:06.720 I mean, he says it all the time. We all know that. And it's almost getting lost because he says it so much.

00:00:11.820 You've been at the FBI now 14 months. Have you done anything about that?

00:00:15.160 And do you have anything to tell us about that?

00:00:19.300 Absolutely, Maria. Look, I've been with the president nearly since day one on this.

00:00:23.200 As I told you earlier, I was the one that led the effort with folks like Trey Gowdy,

00:00:27.480 Johnny Ratcliffe, and Devin Nunes to expose the corruption that tried to thwart President

00:00:32.480 Trump's first presidential election run, and we saw the FISA abuses there.

00:00:36.240 And I lived through it, and the media came at me then, too.

00:00:38.700 That just shows you that when you're over the target, you keep pummeling the target

00:00:41.780 because the media's going to try and pummel you.

00:00:43.680 We are not going to take this and have not taken this laying down.

00:00:47.220 We did already indict former Director Comey, and that's going through the judicial process.

00:00:51.940 But we also, at this FBI, even though we uncovered what we uncovered back in the House Intel days,

00:00:56.900 I had to come in here and find rooms that they hid from the world.

00:00:59.600 I had to come in here and find access on our computer systems in restricted and prohibited case files

00:01:04.060 that they purposely put in places for no one to see and find.

00:01:07.480 We have found all this information.

00:01:09.040 We are working with our Department of Justice partners.

00:01:11.260 And I am never going to let this go because they not only have personally attacked the presidency of the United States and President Trump,

00:01:17.260 but they tried to thwart our elections and rig the entire system.

00:01:20.500 And that is not something that is going to stop on, that is not something I'm going to allow on my watch.

00:01:26.740 But you just have to remember, they built this disease temple over 20 and 30 years.

00:01:30.920 We've got all the evidence.

00:01:32.320 I can announce on your show that we've got all the information we need.

00:01:35.700 We're working with our prosecutors, the Department of Justice and their attorney general, Todd Blanche.

00:01:39.560 And we are going to be making arrests.

00:01:42.220 And it's coming.

00:01:43.020 And I promise you, it's coming soon.

00:01:44.880 this is the primal scream of a dying regime pray for our enemies because we're going to

00:01:55.060 medieval on these people here's not got a free shot all these networks lying about the people

00:02:01.640 the people have had a belly full of it i know you don't like hearing that i know you try to do

00:02:05.820 everything in the world to stop that but you're not going to stop it it's going to happen and

00:02:09.160 Where do people like that go to share the big line?

00:02:12.440 MAGA Media.

00:02:13.780 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:02:19.200 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:02:22.980 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:02:29.160 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

00:02:35.560 It's Monday, 20 April, year of alert, 2026.

00:02:39.160 From the Persian Gulf to the Shenandoah Valley of the Commonwealth of Virginia, we're going to be covering it all today.

00:02:47.860 I asked John Solomon if he could start with us today.

00:02:51.760 We're going to get in. We've got bowling. We're going to talk about a bailout for MBZ.

00:02:58.140 Did I tell you we had no allies? We'll get all into that.

00:03:02.420 But I want to make sure for the Warren Posse, because you're the most sophisticated audience in all media, because we cover stuff, we're not going to chase the ephemeral.

00:03:14.920 If you remember a couple of weeks ago, Kristi Noem was then DHS secretary, was in testimony in front of the Senate.

00:03:24.160 And I think it was Senator John Kennedy, who has a very theatrical style to him.

00:03:29.980 remember he's very incredibly well educated i think he went to oxford but he comes off you know

00:03:35.400 he tries to play senator claghorn right and and so he he literally eviscerated her so when you

00:03:42.720 see something like that that's called a sanctioned hit that is signed off on they're trying to get

00:03:49.760 some information out or trying to see exactly if somebody's really doing their job maria bartiroma

00:03:55.420 up. That was a sanctioned hit yesterday on Cash. I think somebody wants to know when Cash and the

00:04:01.240 FBI are really going to start to ramp up here. John Solomon, Cash said the moral equivalent,

00:04:07.680 it's coming in two weeks, right, when Maria braced him up. Help me. You're my guy. Help me

00:04:14.520 out. Is the FBI, Todd just took over there at DOJ. Is Cash right? Are we going to get some

00:04:22.860 arrest on on voting because i saw that president trump's now saying and getting doj in detroit

00:04:28.400 because he's saying hey mike rogers won the 2024 senate race where do we stand here are we two

00:04:34.780 weeks away from perp walking guy sir well uh as i said earlier in the month i think that the the

00:04:41.340 goal was to make decisions on the first few indictments before the end of the month john

00:04:45.560 brennan and james comey are at the top of the list right now there's also some fbi agents

00:04:49.580 involved in the gathering of phone records that they're looking at.

00:04:53.080 That timetable is still operative, except for one thing.

00:04:56.720 This goes back to a story I broke Saturday morning.

00:04:59.680 There's been a major delay caused by Republicans.

00:05:02.940 The John Thune Senate has yet to send the John Brennan transcripts over.

00:05:07.040 The House did it several weeks ago, but the Senate, John Thune, hasn't been able to do it.

00:05:11.720 Why? Because he's trying to negotiate with Democrats.

00:05:14.580 And what the Justice Department probably should have done from the beginning, don't send a Friday letter and then try to get a negotiated deal.

00:05:23.020 Democrats, they're never going to make a deal if they think their peeps are about to get indicted.

00:05:27.680 Drop a grand jury subpoena, force the issue, go to court and enforce it if the Senate doesn't comply.

00:05:33.000 I think there was a too cordial a situation for the time clock.

00:05:37.020 And now John Thune sent it because he can't get Democrats yet to sign off on giving the documents in a cordial way.

00:05:44.920 It may have run a good part of the clock out.

00:05:46.980 So I'm a little worried, based on what I know right now, that that timetable is a little bit in jeopardy because you need those transcripts, those official transcripts, if you're going to make a decision.

00:05:56.720 The grand jury is going to say one way or the other whether John Brennan should be indicted.

00:06:00.380 Now, more firepower came, also in that same story that I broke about Thune on Saturday morning, Joe DiGenova, the former U.S. attorney, the former independent counsel, the guy that put Marion Barry away and many of his corrupt administration officials, the former D.C. mayor back in the Reagan 80s, and the man who also captured and convicted Jonathan Pollard, the Israeli spy.

00:06:24.740 He's been sent to Florida to sort of become the new chief prosecutor down in Fort Pierce.

00:06:28.900 That's a lot of firepower.

00:06:30.560 Now, keep in mind, he's just starting on Monday, so today he gets sworn in.

00:06:34.840 He's going to have to get read in a few days.

00:06:36.620 But I don't think that slows things down.

00:06:38.620 I think the process is already underway in Florida to try to achieve the first couple of indictments at the end of April.

00:06:46.060 But the John Thune thing, the Senate dragging its feet again, that is a real dynamic that has slowed the investigation down.

00:06:53.860 I want to go back to the Thune article.

00:06:55.660 If Denver, if the team can put that up, and Grace and Moe and Elizabeth push it out.

00:07:00.500 I want to make sure everybody catches up on that.

00:07:03.480 The Thune is because of custom and tradition.

00:07:08.000 There's nothing stopping Thune because we have the majority and the Democrats.

00:07:11.960 Custom and tradition, you make it collegial.

00:07:14.340 We're burning daylight because Thune, once again, will not be confrontational, sir?

00:07:20.840 Well, yeah, and also I think the Justice Department under Pam Bondi probably made a mistake.

00:07:24.720 They sent a letter.

00:07:26.260 You know, when the Biden Justice Department or the Obama Justice Department evidence, they didn't send a letter.

00:07:32.180 They sent a FISA warrant.

00:07:33.380 They sent a grand jury subpoena.

00:07:35.900 I think the whole, there's a little bit of colloquialism that I don't think serves the investigation well.

00:07:42.860 If you want the documents, subpoena them.

00:07:45.400 If you want the documents, get a search warrant.

00:07:47.440 That's what the Biden and Obama Justice Department did.

00:07:49.620 And by the way, it's what prior justice departments do.

00:07:52.420 I don't fully understand.

00:07:54.020 I mean, I put the letters out for everybody to see.

00:07:56.400 There are these cordial letters like, hey, we'd really like to see this.

00:07:59.020 You're the Justice Department.

00:08:00.680 Drop a subpoena, get the work done, and get the clock going.

00:08:03.480 I think this starts with a Pan Bondi Justice Department sending a backdoor letter instead of a red-hot subpoena.

00:08:11.700 And that slows things down for eight to ten weeks.

00:08:14.240 And then if you don't have a subpoena, what does John Thune got to do?

00:08:16.640 He's got to get unanimous consent.

00:08:18.060 So I think the Justice Department, before Todd took over, probably put this thing in motion.

00:08:25.480 But listen, if they don't get it out in the next couple of days, I bet you Joe DeGeneva is not going to wait for it.

00:08:30.460 He'll be dropping grand jury subpoenas on Tuesday.

00:08:33.820 So talk to me about DeGeneva is, but Joe is, it's not his first rodeo, which is great, but he's also, he's close to 80 years old, isn't he?

00:08:44.260 Or even older than he, I think.

00:08:45.740 But the top prosecutor down there is not off the case.

00:08:51.440 They had another long-term Justice Department guy who thought it was going too quick.

00:08:57.660 That's the guy that's been replaced.

00:08:58.960 And Joe's coming in technically as a senior advisor, correct?

00:09:03.580 Yeah, I don't think – I think the leftist media turned that into something it wasn't.

00:09:09.420 I think the prosecutor went back to Miami so that they can keep cases going.

00:09:12.940 Remember, they've got some of these drug cartel members coming in that have been extradited from Mexico.

00:09:18.280 They've got all the Venezuelans that they're trying to indict.

00:09:21.240 So going back to Miami for that accomplished prosecutor makes all the sense in the world.

00:09:25.420 Once a decision was made that DeGeneva was coming and that prosecutor was always going to go back,

00:09:30.180 I think the deep state and the news media tried to make it look like, oh, this is a foot-dragging prosecutor.

00:09:35.520 I don't get the sense of the—the prosecutor was simply waiting for the documents to come from the Senate,

00:09:40.060 which I think was a much more important dynamic in the slowness, not the prosecutor's work.

00:09:44.640 That prosecutor is very accomplished.

00:09:46.040 He's going to go back and do some great work in Miami.

00:09:49.800 But I think at the same time, the Senate, the flow of evidence from the Senate has slowed things down.

00:09:56.200 It shouldn't take this long for a Republican administration to get what it needs from a Republican Congress, but it keeps happening.

00:10:02.360 the central way that uh we continue to prosecute this is the grand conspiracy uh theory that

00:10:11.080 interconnects everything talk to us you've got articles up this morning about that because the

00:10:15.720 left media is starting to pick up on that and saying hey this is you know it's happened longer

00:10:20.060 than seven years ago this is all ridiculous they're going back into ancient history uh this 0.75

00:10:25.020 is more of the wingnut trump uh you know inner circle that just wants vengeance uh you've got

00:10:30.600 new reporting on that to go see ukraine and everything what do you do yes the second that

00:10:35.480 bob muller said donald trump didn't engage in russia collusion uh the many of the same actors

00:10:40.920 began concocting a story on ukraine now in fairness i wrote the first stories in march of 2019 at the

00:10:47.160 hill that said joe biden bragged about firing the prosecutor was investigating his son's company

00:10:52.300 burisma and that's what started it then the new york times and abc news confirmed my reporting

00:10:56.920 Then the deep state got really panicked.

00:11:00.460 And so just like they did on Russia, where they had to solve a Hillary Clinton problem, Hillary Clinton had a Russia problem, and they hugged a fake Russian shingle on Donald Trump's campaign house, Joe Biden suddenly had a corruption quid pro quo problem in Ukraine.

00:11:16.400 So they turned around and hung a fake quid pro quo Ukraine problem around Donald Trump's tax.

00:11:22.860 And by the way, later this week, you're going to see a story to see just how deeply involved the Russia collusion people were in prompting the Ukraine impeachment.

00:11:32.260 So that's that wash, rinse, repeat cycle that we talked about.

00:11:34.960 It happens four times. 1.00

00:11:35.920 Hillary Clinton's got a problem.

00:11:37.520 Donald Trump ends up with Russia collusion.

00:11:39.620 Joe Biden's got a Ukraine problem.

00:11:41.440 Donald Trump ends up with Ukraine impeachment.

00:11:43.460 Joe Biden's got a classified documents problem.

00:11:46.460 Donald Trump ends up with a Mar-a-Lago raid.

00:11:48.660 Joe Biden's got a cognitive problem.

00:11:50.020 Doesn't look viable for 2024.

00:11:51.580 they decided to go back years later and try to make a case on January 6th against President Trump,

00:11:57.860 saying that the electors were somehow inappropriate to do, even though they had been done twice in

00:12:02.740 history. So now we know that Ukraine impeachment wasn't just based on a faulty whistleblower,

00:12:09.480 whistleblower who had only hearsay knowledge, had misled the investigation, and had serious

00:12:14.200 biases. That's the news we broke last week, compliments of Tulsi Gabbard. Today I put out

00:12:20.820 four more sets of documents that show that testimony in the impeachment trial was clearly

00:12:28.180 wrong. It was clearly false. One of those testimonies was that Hunter Biden, the State

00:12:34.080 Department officials testified, had no impact on the U.S. efforts and policy in Ukraine,

00:12:39.220 specifically relating to fighting corruption. I put out today a once classified email between

00:12:45.520 George Kent, the guy who won the bowtie at the impeachment trial, and Maria Vanovich,

00:12:50.860 the ambassador to Ukraine, that shows that they agreed that Hunter Biden had undercut

00:12:56.400 Ukrainian anti-corruption efforts.

00:12:59.280 That is a powerful email.

00:13:00.600 It directly challenges the narrative that Democrats put forward and the testimony that

00:13:05.740 they put forward.

00:13:06.820 There are three other great examples that I put out about that today.

00:13:10.680 Joe Biden said for the longest time, I only fired the prosecutor because that's what the

00:13:14.500 career people wanted.

00:13:15.520 Today, I put out the recommendation of the career people.

00:13:18.900 They praised that prosecutor, Victor Shokin, sent them a letter saying, that a boy, good

00:13:23.160 job, and then recommended that Ukraine get the $1 billion, and Joe Biden, and Joe Biden

00:13:29.480 alone changed that recommendation.

00:13:31.600 That document's out there, and there's some other examples of that.

00:13:34.140 Five examples of stories that were told to support impeachment and to support the impeachment

00:13:39.440 trial, and they are now contradicted by official government documents that I spent seven years

00:13:45.180 suing to get, but we got them now.

00:13:48.980 John Solomon, where do people go to get this content?

00:13:51.820 We're going to push it out.

00:13:52.660 Where do they go for the written and news content?

00:13:54.800 Where do they go for the podcast?

00:13:56.080 Where do they go for your show?

00:13:57.960 Yeah, thanks so much.

00:13:58.920 So justthenews.com is the website.

00:14:00.760 John Solomon Reports is the podcast.

00:14:02.600 Jay Solomon Reports is my handle on all social media.

00:14:06.060 And I'm lucky enough every day at 6 o'clock to follow you right here on Real America's

00:14:09.980 Voice.

00:14:10.520 Just the news, no noise, with Amanda Head.

00:14:14.220 Thank you, sir.

00:14:14.820 appreciate you starting us off this week a lot of fun solomon thank you brother

00:14:21.180 okay two weeks cash the fbi directors told me we're gonna get coming soon need some perp walks

00:14:30.740 um end of the dollar empire go to birchgold.com promo code war room why do you want to do that

00:14:38.400 excuse me promo code bannon end of the dollar empire eighth free installment why do you need

00:14:41.980 to do that. You need to do that to understand today's headlines. MBZ sent a delegation to see

00:14:51.340 Scott Besson, Secretary of the Treasury last week. We're looking for a, wait for it, bailout. You

00:14:57.620 getting a bailout? Short break. The dollar's convertibility into gold ended in 1971. Gold

00:15:04.540 was fixed at $35 an ounce. Well, fast forward to today and the U.S. dollar has lost over 85%

00:15:11.820 of its purchasing power. Gold, on the other hand, is increased in value by over 12,000%.

00:15:19.260 That's why central banks are buying gold at record levels. That's why major firms like Vanguard and

00:15:25.140 BlackRock hold significant positions in gold. And that's why I encourage you to consider

00:15:31.440 diversifying your savings with physical gold from Birch Gold Group. But it starts with education.

00:15:38.440 Birch Gold just announced their Learn and Earn Precious Metals event.

00:15:43.220 This free online event rewards you for learning the basics of investing in precious metals.

00:15:54.300 The more you learn, the more you can earn.

00:15:56.960 But you must act now, as this special event only runs through April 30th.

00:16:02.280 The dollar lost its anchor in 1971.

00:16:05.280 You don't have to lose yours.

00:16:08.440 Text my name, Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N, to the number 989898 to join Birch Gold's Learn and Earn Precious Metals event by April 30th.

00:16:18.980 Text Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N, to 989898 and do it today.

00:16:24.980 I'll start with just the status of these talks, especially in light of what you just mentioned, Kate,

00:16:31.060 the Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson coming out and essentially saying that there are no plans for a second round of talks

00:16:37.500 and also arguing that they do not, he said, quote,

00:16:40.820 we do not believe in deadlines or ultimatums to secure Iran's national interest.

00:16:45.840 Look, as for what we are seeing on the ground in Islamabad,

00:16:49.340 the streets are kind of shut down.

00:16:51.780 There is a security posture in place, just as it was last night

00:16:55.900 after the White House had announced that the Vice President J.D. Vance,

00:16:59.480 Steve Wyckoff and Jared Kushner were going to be headed to the region

00:17:03.060 for this second round of talks.

00:17:05.240 But I think the timing of this, especially in light of what we are hearing from the Iranians on the official side, at least, you know, the timing of this, it's kind of anyone's guess right now when we should actually see these talks move forward and take place.

00:17:19.660 Now, I do want to get into a little bit of the back and forth here, because what I found so interesting is everything that we saw happen over the weekend was a major departure from the kind of the optimistic posturing we saw from the Trump administration on Friday.

00:17:32.260 They were really trying to push this idea that they believed a deal could be finalized in the next few days.

00:17:38.280 Now, from the conversations I've had throughout the weekend, Kate, the position of the White House remains that they still want diplomacy.

00:17:45.920 They are hoping for a diplomatic solution here.

00:17:48.240 They do not want to resume, have this resumption of military operations and attacks and really see the ceasefire fall apart and lead to more war.

00:17:56.680 But, of course, there is a lot of distrust right now on the Iranian side as well.

00:18:01.100 And there was a lot of anger after the U.S. targeted one of their tankers in the Strait of Hormuz.

00:18:06.900 We actually heard the Iranians arguing that it was the landing, the U.S. of landing terrorists,

00:18:11.260 not Marines who, you know, took, seized the ship, but terrorists.

00:18:15.120 So that's kind of the posture we're hearing on the Iranian side.

00:18:18.200 What happened to the idea that you bomb Iran, the regime gets weakened,

00:18:25.540 people will, there will be, there will be genuine regime change.

00:18:28.700 I mean, Trump uses the phrase now, but obviously it's the same regime.

00:18:32.900 Was that a fantasy?

00:18:35.440 I think it was a fantasy and a hope that it actually was never tested with evidence of history everywhere else.

00:18:42.180 People don't usually rebel in the middle of a war when bombs are falling on their head.

00:18:47.240 There was no love lost for the Islamic Republic when the war started,

00:18:51.880 given the massacres that happened in Iran in January and the unhappiness of the people.

00:18:56.020 But first of all, Iranians are not organized around a political movement that can keep their rage going, can channel it into politics.

00:19:04.340 Secondly, the war basically created a crisis for Iranians on a daily basis.

00:19:10.540 And then as the war went on, it became very clear to the majority of the Iranians that war is not liberating.

00:19:16.680 The Islamic Republic is not going to go anytime soon.

00:19:19.800 And the United States and Israel are not there to look after their safety. 0.98

00:19:25.040 They're actually bombing their neighborhoods. They're bombing their hospitals, their universities, their historical sites.

00:19:30.700 This is increasingly a war against Iran. When President Trump says, I'm going to destroy every single bridge you have, 0.83

00:19:36.640 what you saw was that the Iranians' political reaction was not to go into the streets and demand the departure of the Islamic Republic, 0.82

00:19:43.620 but to create human chains around power plants. And so the head of the country is somewhere else right now. 0.88

00:19:51.660 Potentially, when there is peace, when the guns fall silent, you can go back to politics.

00:19:56.360 And we shouldn't forget that the January protests came six months after the June war. 0.95

00:20:00.660 So I think this idea that Iranians would basically serve as America and Israel's boots on the ground 0.93

00:20:07.420 and finish the job for them was an idea that was concocted as a hope,

00:20:14.200 but it was not really a solid policy at any time.

00:20:18.180 Chinese officials claim their country does not want to replace the United States.

00:20:23.560 Its business leaders insisted that America remains the more innovative economy.

00:20:28.520 Even though America has soured on China, those leaders continue to admire Silicon Valley,

00:20:34.100 America's great universities, and the scale and sophistication of the U.S. market.

00:20:39.900 China's strategy is to use this crisis to build its economic strength and global influence.

00:20:47.000 China is doubling down on the frontier technologies that it believes will define the next era of growth.

00:20:52.940 Green energy, robotics, artificial intelligence applied to real industries, advanced manufacturing and services.

00:21:01.960 Its dominance in some of these sectors is already staggering.

00:21:06.420 It produces 80 percent of the world's solar panels, about 60 percent of the wind turbines and 75 percent of the batteries.

00:21:15.040 It supplies 70 percent of all electric vehicles on the planet. 0.55

00:21:20.700 China has used the last three economic shocks to further its dominance.

00:21:26.740 During the pandemic, Chinese firms surged to supply much of the world with medical equipment.

00:21:32.440 As the artificial intelligence boom swelled, China became central to its physical buildout.

00:21:38.640 the metals, electrical equipment, batteries, cooling systems, and industrial components needed for data centers.

00:21:46.880 Now the Iran war has produced a global scramble for new energy. 0.93

00:21:51.940 Here again, China is the indispensable power.

00:21:55.100 It dominates the green technologies, solar, wind, batteries, electric vehicles

00:21:59.740 that countries will need to reduce dependence on imported oil and gas.

00:22:04.720 Beijing turns these industrial strengths into influence. It offers financing, infrastructure

00:22:11.980 and supply chains. It locks countries into Chinese made systems. It shows governments 0.99

00:22:17.280 that America brings volatility, while China brings equipment, credit and continuity.

00:22:22.840 Part of the reason I think we are in the position we are today, where there's a lot more

00:22:26.560 skepticism of whether or not a deal could actually be reached is I remind you of where we were

00:22:31.420 Friday. The conversations I had heading into the weekend was that we had seen the Pakistanis. They

00:22:37.100 were in Tehran. They were having their third day of talks. Things were going, at least on the White

00:22:42.000 House side, they believed very well. But then we saw President Donald Trump begin truthing a lot

00:22:46.580 of, you know, I was told that he was getting regular updates throughout the day on Friday 1.00

00:22:50.400 from the Pakistanis. And the president then went out and started sharing a lot of that

00:22:54.920 on True Social, something that we saw publicly the Iranians really take issue with and argue

00:23:00.540 that they didn't understand what the U.S. was doing, that they didn't agree to a lot of those

00:23:04.920 things. And then we saw the breakdown in the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend. Today,

00:23:09.400 things not really as in as much of a great place as I think they were previously before the weekend.

00:23:14.920 And so there's a lot, I think, that still needs to be worked out. We have to see really what is

00:23:18.900 going to happen with these talks. But it remains that the vice president, Wyckoff and Kushner,

00:23:23.800 are going to be in the region and they're hoping that they can hash some of that out in the second

00:23:27.840 round of talks came. Would an operation like this be worth risking American lives? In my opinion,

00:23:34.160 yes. Retired Vice Admiral Robert Harward is a former Navy SEAL and Deputy Director of U.S.

00:23:41.440 Central Command. He led elite special operations in the Middle East and says an operation in Iran

00:23:48.320 could take many weeks and require a large footprint involving all the branches of the military.

00:23:55.320 It's high risk. You have to occupy territory, you have to confront, you have to force your way in.

00:24:04.040 So all those risks are inherent in that operation, but we can do it.

00:24:09.080 It's been said troops would have to secure a full perimeter around any facility they'd enter.

00:24:14.760 They might have to bring in their own bulldozers to clear rubble,

00:24:18.680 maybe even build their own landing strip in order to pull this off as a successful operation.

00:24:23.400 That's what our military does. When we went into Afghanistan, we built a runway in the desert and we brought in C-17s.

00:24:32.960 What does concern Vice Admiral Harward is the weapons still available to Iran on today's battlefield.

00:24:40.440 The most prevalent threat is their abilities then to respond with drones, kinetic drones, maybe whatever's left in their inventory of missiles. 0.65

00:24:51.140 That's your real threat to your time on the ground and the force.

00:24:56.020 Would you expect casualties in an operation like this?

00:24:58.800 Sure.

00:25:00.780 You have to plan for that.

00:25:03.640 The fragile ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran is set to expire on Wednesday.

00:25:09.500 From touchdown to takeoff, Project SAFIRE took six weeks to remove more than 1,300 pounds of bomb-grade uranium from Kazakhstan.

00:25:20.280 on.

00:25:21.280 Would the same mission be possible today in Iran?

00:25:24.580 In Iran, we couldn't send a team in to do this unilaterally without great risk.

00:25:32.840 You would need to set up in the middle of the country a secure perimeter.

00:25:38.440 It would probably take thousands of U.S. troops to secure the facility while our experts excavated

00:25:48.020 The HEU that's located inside deep tunnels at a place called Isfahan. 0.89

00:25:55.620 OK, the Chinese have a race yesterday in the Financial Times. 0.97

00:25:59.100 They have robots running against humans. 1.00

00:26:01.100 Guess who win?

00:26:01.760 The robots. 1.00

00:26:02.400 That's what the Chinese think about. 0.98

00:26:04.340 Humans and labor. 0.98

00:26:05.400 Of course, here, Iran war will squeeze U.S. voters long after conflict ends.

00:26:09.360 Economists say, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

00:26:12.260 Sub-headline, the important sub-headline is that Tehran, no Tehran delegation.

00:26:17.700 Eric Bolling, quickly, because we're going to go to break, but should we be a supplicant even to get a meeting?

00:26:26.040 I mean, we've so shattered their command that there's five or six nodes, and none of them can deliver a deal.

00:26:35.180 Should we even be hinting at saying a delegation until we know, until they step up, and we find out who exactly represents Iran right now, sir?

00:26:45.560 It feels like they're on their own, and that's the point that I think the blockade has proven, that Trump does hold the Trump card.

00:26:53.320 He took the one thing that they had, which was holding the Strait of Hormuz at hostage.

00:26:57.700 He took it away from them.

00:26:58.980 I think they're on their knees.

00:26:59.920 I think we saw a bunch of war games, probably for public opinion or spin, play out in the Middle East.

00:27:06.160 A note that everything happened after markets were closed.

00:27:08.560 Today, oil's up about $4 a barrel.

00:27:11.300 Not crazy.

00:27:12.480 Markets are a little bit softer.

00:27:13.920 Not crazy.

00:27:14.480 So there's a wait and see what to see what's going on.

00:27:17.080 Steve, I don't know how this idea that UAE is coming hat in hand saying, hey, we're going to need a bailout if this thing goes on a little bit longer.

00:27:27.440 When in fact they are they and the Saudis were the most vocal to say, finish this.

00:27:32.060 Keep going, Trump. Let's get let's end this. Yeah.

00:27:34.340 And they did. Was this the plan all along?

00:27:36.440 They get a higher oil price revenues go up and they say, oh, by the way, we're going to need some help. 0.99

00:27:41.280 It's absolutely asinine. 1.00

00:27:44.480 I'm not so sure the Persians agree with you, sir. 0.97

00:27:48.400 I don't think the Persians think they're on their knees.

00:27:51.020 I think they feel they're in pretty good shape.

00:27:53.440 And they're in no hurry to say, hey, we're on the next flight to Islamabad.

00:27:57.160 We're dying to meet.

00:27:57.960 Anyway, we're going to get into all of it.

00:27:59.140 Eric Bolling's with us.

00:28:00.800 Raymond Ibrahim also going to join us from Hungary.

00:28:06.260 There's a conference this week.

00:28:07.560 Also, we're going to get his thoughts on everything going on in the Middle East.

00:28:14.480 The sideshow to a sideshow, all of it.

00:28:17.920 Short commercial break, back in a moment.

00:28:23.120 Do you owe back taxes or you haven't filed your taxes in years?

00:28:28.080 Now is the time to resolve your tax matters.

00:28:31.380 With the national conversation around abolishing the income tax,

00:28:35.480 the IRS is fighting back and proving it's here to stay

00:28:39.180 by becoming more aggressive than ever before.

00:28:42.560 They're sending out more collection notices, filing more tax liens, and collecting billions more in recent years.

00:28:50.060 If you owe, the IRS can garnish your wages, levy your bank accounts, seize your retirement, and even your home.

00:28:58.800 If you owe or haven't filed, it's not a question of if the IRS will act.

00:29:04.260 It's a question of when it will act.

00:29:06.340 Right now, Tax Network USA is offering a completely free IRS research and discovery call to show you exactly where you stand and what they can stop before it's too late.

00:30:11.820 Take advantage of first mover advantage, you move.

00:30:17.140 Let me hit rewind for a second so people can look through the fog of war here.

00:30:28.340 remember i've said in doing the dollar empire end of the dollar empire i don't want the end of the

00:30:34.280 dollar empire particularly quickly because it'll cause economic financial chaos in the good old

00:30:40.260 united states of america just like the brits at the end of world war ii when they gave it up

00:30:45.980 at breton woods there are it's you have immense power you in fact can become a global power

00:30:54.380 like the British when your currency is the prime reserve currency when everything's got to be

00:30:59.480 translated into your currency to do that now it also comes with obligations and that's why I said

00:31:04.000 hey we should have a national debate about whether we want to continue as the prime reserve currency

00:31:11.160 and that'll be part of our political debate one of the reasons we do so much capital markets and

00:31:15.560 talk about uh gold and talk about the bond market and all of it is to understand a working class

00:31:22.500 a middle-class audience, has to understand money.

00:31:26.160 These other shows, what they're going to do is chase every ephemeral story

00:31:29.380 that when you look back over a couple of months ago,

00:31:31.860 why did we spend time on that?

00:31:35.280 We're now down to it.

00:31:37.980 And I keep, you know, I've, you know,

00:31:40.520 trademarked world's greatest allies about Netanyahu in Israel.

00:31:44.780 But as I've said on this show from the very beginning,

00:31:47.380 don't think we have any allies over there.

00:31:50.180 President Trump just put out a heated tweet about, you know, Israel did not talk him into this.

00:31:55.240 And he's always wanted to, you know, as he has had a long track record of of Iran not having a nuclear weapon.

00:32:02.640 But on our side, we don't have any allies. 0.64

00:32:05.920 The Saudis are not allies. 0.67

00:32:08.240 They've already cut long-term deals to help give China, the Chinese Communist Party,

00:32:14.340 below-market energy for the CCP to help finance them.

00:32:21.260 Qatar is not an ally.

00:32:23.240 They're not. 1.00

00:32:24.720 They're one of the biggest sponsors of the Muslim Brotherhood 0.88

00:32:27.200 in the rollout in this country of Sharia law, full stop. 0.99

00:32:30.900 The UAE who punches way above their weight, MBZ, MBZ, who's the one guy you can kind of trust, 0.92

00:32:43.340 although he did try to cut a deal with the CCP to have a submarine base in UAE about seven or eight years ago.

00:32:50.920 and he's our best ally and the one that's got a really some modicum of a military force that can

00:32:58.060 that could actually put some lead on a target. UAE came over, sent a delegation to see Scott

00:33:06.860 Besant last week. And what did they want? They wanted these credits, the same type of bailout

00:33:11.880 that Bernanke was caught lying about when we bailed out all the European banks back in 2008.

00:33:17.880 As you remember, when you went under or your assets were cut in by 80 or 90 percent or many Hispanic Americans and African Americans had the equity in their homes wiped out overnight, never to recover because the American middle class got did not get a did not get a bailout in the working class. 0.92

00:33:37.900 Got to screw you. Well, we bailed out every bank, we bailed out Goldman Sachs, we bailed out GE credit.

00:33:43.800 We bailed them all out, okay?

00:33:45.680 AIG, every fat cat, every connected person got a bailout.

00:33:49.760 And they say, well, you can't say they bailed them out because we got these loans at 15%.

00:33:53.400 What you would do is Goldman Sachs, you walk in, you blow out management, you give them money,

00:33:59.400 the new crew you bring in gets 20% warrants that they earn into,

00:34:03.040 and the people that provide the capital, the U.S. taxpayer, gets 80% of the VIG.

00:34:09.360 You didn't get that.

00:34:11.020 And, of course, if the government did get it, they wouldn't spread it around to you as a citizen.

00:34:14.980 They'd keep it to this fiasco that's going over here in the imperial capital.

00:34:18.680 UAE, Dubai, you see all the influencers?

00:34:22.380 You're working stiff, going to a freaking job every day,

00:34:25.820 and you see these influencers in Dubai and they're sitting around. 0.94

00:34:28.020 All these girls got bikinis on and all these, and hell, a lot of Americans, too. 0.74

00:34:33.240 Down there, they're partying. 0.98

00:34:34.660 This is the future.

00:34:35.680 This is what we're going to do.

00:34:37.020 We're going to do that.

00:34:38.060 We're going to do this. 1.00

00:34:39.500 What are you doing, you stupid working American, paying for it and having your kids? 1.00

00:34:44.860 Are those kids in that battle group out there, are they in Dubai partying? 1.00

00:34:49.360 Are they hanging out with the girls in bikinis in Dubai? 0.85

00:34:52.220 No, they're not. 0.96

00:34:53.480 You're not in that club. 1.00

00:34:54.540 You're just a working stiff out there to defend the scum and their scum. 1.00

00:35:00.880 So the scum comes to Treasury, and we need a credit line, 1.00

00:35:05.180 Or we're not going to be able to do sell all anymore in dollars, petrodollars, which is the predicate of the dollar empire. 0.98

00:35:13.980 We're going to have to wait for we're going to transact in, wait for it, Chinese yuan.

00:35:20.440 So we don't have any allies and we got to start acting like we don't have any allies.

00:35:25.160 No more big conferences over there. No more guys hugging each other.

00:35:28.940 And oh, this is great. This is the new future of the world.

00:35:31.260 You know what a future of the world is?

00:35:32.540 the kids out there in oman are protecting these guys from being wiped out not just wiped out from

00:35:38.240 the bad guys in persia and there are plenty of bad hombres there but a ton of bad hombres they

00:35:42.900 got in their own countries and you wait till you see these radical uh madrasas start to pop up and 0.99

00:35:53.160 bikinis on the beach in dubai and that's our problem this uh this conflict for whatever reason 0.86

00:36:38.020 to perdition. And it's time we got to start playing smash mouth. The guy's supposed to be

00:36:43.760 our allies going to tell you, no, no, no, you're not getting a credit free. Where's all that money?

00:36:47.820 Where all that investment? Hey, let's do this. Let's monetize. What we're going to do is take

00:36:51.520 collateral of all that, all that real estate you bought in the West End of London, all that real

00:36:56.160 estate you own in Midtown Manhattan, all that real estate you own in Beverly Hills and the Hamptons

00:37:00.760 it down. You know, you're hanging out in Miami, all that stuff you own in Miami. Hey, that's ours.

00:37:05.380 How about this? That's ours. Maybe we'll share the West End of London with the Brits, but that's

00:37:10.800 ours. We'll collateralize. We're going to collateralize. We're going to give you a 0.66

00:37:14.300 credit line. We're going to collateralize it. And we're going to dare you to transact anything

00:37:19.020 in Chinese yuan. We don't have any allies. And the admirals and generals in the Pentagon,

00:37:26.940 John, oh, they're partners, they're great partners, show me, show me.

00:37:31.300 You know where our partners are is those kids, those men and women, 18, 19 years old,

00:37:47.920 to go in and get the pixie dust and we're going to pull it out.

00:37:56.940 that's your sons and daughters at the same time we're given the influencer capital of the world

00:38:46.460 they've got these embassies here, they're partying all the time,

00:38:48.640 they're spreading money around, Qatar's spent

00:38:50.220 $200 billion and spread money around all the time, and they're going to come, oh, you know,

00:38:55.920 we just need to, we can continue to do this, but we need an unlimited $2 trillion credit facility

00:39:01.840 at no interest. Eric Bolling, am I wrong on any of that, sir? Oh, you nailed it across the board,

00:39:07.380 Steve. Across the board. I will also know, a great example of this, you know, Dubai is known

00:39:12.880 as the Las Vegas of the Middle East and frankly, much of the world because it's so affluent,

00:39:19.340 so much money. So UAE coming hat in hand saying we're going to need a loan.

00:39:23.740 I will tell you, you're spot on about if somehow this group, whether it's BRICS or the Middle 0.85

00:39:30.140 Easterners or the Chinese get their way and they decouple the US dollar from the global reserve 0.95

00:39:35.420 currency, we will rip higher in inflation. The dollar will lose its support. It'll lose all the 0.99

00:39:42.300 air in its sale because that's a massive amount of demand for dollars if you have to buy dollars to

00:39:48.060 transact any commodity globally. So the value of the dollar will drop. And what does that mean?

00:39:53.540 You need more of those dollars to chase after the same gallon of gas, loaf of bread.

00:39:58.920 You're 100%. But this is why these bad hombres in Persia, first of all, there are five or six 1.00

00:40:07.960 different groups. I've been saying just in Hormuz, there's a group of pirates down there.

00:40:11.580 Hell, read the history, I think it's Arian's history of the campaigns of Alexander the Great.

00:40:20.320 There are a whole different group of guys down there, and they had to fight everywhere else. 0.97

00:40:23.740 They've been there for thousands of years, and half of them are Bedouins. 0.76

00:40:27.620 There are some Persians, but they're one group. 1.00

00:40:29.660 You've got another group here. 0.98

00:40:30.660 You've got another group in Tehrani.

00:40:31.820 You've got competing groups.

00:40:33.020 I've been saying, make sure if we get a meeting, it's with somebody, not just can sign a deal or go in front of a mic,

00:40:38.160 but somebody can execute a deal, and people will listen up.

00:40:41.020 I think we've shattered the command so hard that you've got conflicting groups.

00:40:46.140 But, Eric, I don't think these guys think for a second that they've lost.

00:40:51.660 I think they now see with this exclusive story in the Wall Street Journal that, hey, I think we really got America on the back foot now, right?

00:41:00.660 Because now they have to make this thing work in the Persian Gulf, and they're going to be stuck there for a while, sir.

00:41:07.620 It's a Mexican standoff, two sides pointing the trigger at each other. 0.76

00:41:11.080 Our trigger is we're going to blow you into oblivion. 0.59

00:41:13.640 Their trigger is, well, we'll do things like keep oil prices high, maybe get the U.S. dollars.

00:41:20.140 There's no longer be a petrodollar, be it a Chinese yuan currency or a basket of bricks countries.

00:41:25.600 It's a legitimate threat, but they would need support from the other countries involved.

00:41:30.840 And I just want to say one thing.

00:41:32.480 For the UAE to come out and say we need a bailout is insane.

00:41:36.700 Their oil revenue is in the $300 billion a year area.

00:41:41.900 They actually pay the 11 million, the tiny little population of 11 million people, households get stipends.

00:41:48.380 They're handing out cash to households to live on a day-to-day basis.

00:41:52.220 They don't need cash. They want cash.

00:41:54.220 And I'm just going to say this one more time.

00:41:56.460 You and I have been talking about how we have no allies in the Middle East.

00:41:59.180 And you talk about, well, why are these other countries supporting Trump to go after this?

00:42:04.540 because they want the higher oil prices.

00:42:07.160 A trillion dollars in oil revenue in Saudi Arabia

00:42:11.300 will become a trillion and a half dollars

00:42:13.340 with a hundred dollar price of oil.

00:42:15.400 They don't need a bailout.

00:42:16.560 Who's next?

00:42:17.180 Qatar? 1.00

00:42:17.800 Qatar, who housed the Hezbollah leadership

00:42:20.740 while Hezbollah is taking out the Israeli citizens.

00:42:25.620 It's insane. 0.51

00:42:26.500 You're right.

00:42:26.960 There's no allies.

00:42:27.960 And frankly, I don't even think we have an ally in Europe as well.

00:42:31.440 You say the UK.

00:42:32.680 I don't know.

00:42:33.120 Where were they?

00:42:33.600 What were they when we needed their own?

00:42:34.960 No chance.

00:42:36.220 No chance.

00:42:37.120 They haven't been allies.

00:42:38.180 They weren't.

00:42:40.100 First off, 70% of the NATO guys weren't our allies in World War II.

00:42:45.500 Don't miss the story of World War II.

00:42:47.500 It was the Russian people. 0.85

00:42:48.820 Stalin, one of the worst guys. 0.77

00:42:50.540 He's up there with Hitler.

00:42:52.240 The Russian people lost $65 million.

00:42:54.260 The Russian people, let me reemphasize this, 65 million casualties.

00:42:59.780 half of them starved to death in sieges or are killed by the secret police or the nazis the

00:43:06.500 other half died in combat that's what broke the back of the of the of the nazis our air power

00:43:12.820 our air power and the valor of our troops and the brits and destroyed britain

00:43:18.640 norway scandinavia ireland spain italy eastern europe the poles fought hard their government

00:43:29.040 colluded, but you had

00:43:31.580 brave Polish divisions and

00:43:33.540 brigades. Don't look at NATO as

00:43:35.400 allies. They're in it for themselves

00:43:37.700 and always been in it themselves. 0.99

00:43:39.920 America first

00:43:41.120 and American citizens

00:43:43.500 first. Put those citizens around those 0.97

00:43:45.380 three strike groups out in 0.99

00:43:47.540 the North Arabian Sea

00:43:49.400 and Gulf of Oman. Let's

00:43:51.480 put those kids first and not the influencer

00:43:53.580 capital of the world, Dubai.

00:43:56.240 Eric,

00:43:57.320 Thank you, sir.

00:43:58.140 We'll see you at 4 o'clock.

00:43:59.060 We'll do a transition then.

00:44:04.060 Eric Bowling, the 4 o'clock show on Real America's Voice.

00:44:07.840 We'll do a changeover.

00:44:08.840 We'll do a handoff, we call it, handoff.

00:44:11.240 Short break.

00:44:16.640 Everyone's focused on how the conflict in the Middle East is raising oil prices,

00:44:20.020 but there's another grim reality to this contention.

00:44:23.600 Oil isn't the only resource being constrained

00:44:26.920 About one-third of global fertilizer trade happens through this region

00:44:31.380 And with spring planting season on top of us, American farmers are sounding the alarm

00:44:36.460 With some saying they can't afford to plant their fields

00:44:39.240 When one piece of the supply chain gets hit this hard, you know what comes next

00:44:44.220 Higher food prices, reduced availability, maybe even panic buying

00:44:49.160 That's why having an emergency food supply at home makes so much sense.

00:44:54.460 And that's where our friends at MyPatriotSupply come in right now at preparewithbannon.com.

00:48:34.980 They've got enough guts to do any fighting.

00:48:37.220 They've got a couple of three, but it doesn't go very deep.

00:49:08.540 But we got your assets.

00:49:10.780 That's our collateral.

00:49:11.840 We'll take that as our starting collateral.

00:49:13.240 Seize what they got in the banks.

00:49:15.480 Oh, you're going to end the world's financial system.

00:49:18.120 This is what it is.

00:49:19.500 It ain't working for the American people, okay?

00:49:23.000 So maybe it's time to make some fundamental changes.

00:49:26.340 So, Raymond Ibrahim, you've been the chronicler of this for the last, that goes back 1,400 years.

00:49:36.800 Is anything I just said about these phony countries, these phony monarchies in the Middle East?

00:49:42.580 Because I do.

00:49:43.140 I give it to Netanyahu all day long and people in the chat room and guys in my getter account.

00:49:47.340 And I got it. 0.76

00:49:47.920 I understand it.

00:49:49.400 I do appreciate that you're defending it.

00:49:52.180 Okay, I got that.

00:49:53.880 I got it.

00:49:54.800 And just to show you, I'm not picking on Israel, and I'm not picking on Netanyahu.

00:49:59.100 I think the Greater Israel Project is redonkulous, and it's got us into a lot of stuff, and Netanyahu is the worst of the worst.

00:50:05.940 They ain't any better in Riyadh, and they're not any better in Abu Dhabi, and they're not any better in Doha or Kuwait or any of them.

00:50:14.560 Raymond, is anything I've been saying on this topic incorrect, sir?

00:50:20.900 No, I emphatically agree with what you've said, actually.

00:50:24.800 And as far as these Arab Gulf nations, even before the alliances or the U.S. alliance business partnership and all that sort of thing, I usually see things from a sort of theological, historical prism.

00:50:37.900 And I've always been against the cozy relationship that the United States has with these nations based on who they are and what they actually preach to their own people.

00:50:48.400 uh as just one example saudi arabia our great friend and ally and um uh qatar many many years

00:50:56.020 ago and i was the first one to call this out actually had published online uh in arabic

00:51:01.060 basically upholding the doctrine of which i've spoken of before which in short calls on muslims

00:51:08.820 to always have nothing but hatred for non-muslims okay so think about that our friend and ally

00:51:13.940 qatar and saudi arabia have fatwas telling their citizens that while on the one hand their kings 0.60

00:51:19.700 dance and you know wave swords with our presidents and and whoever on the other hand they're telling

00:51:24.340 their citizens just remember when it's all said and done you have to have hatred for these people 0.93

00:51:29.140 in keeping with islamic principles and these are also the same nations that fund millions 0.87

00:51:34.980 spend millions to fund and disseminate what we call radical islam and jihadism whether in the

00:51:40.820 guise of actual literature and school curriculum and mosque literature in Europe and around

00:51:46.600 the West in general, or whether actually funding real live Islamic Jihadist terrorist organizations

00:51:53.320 as part of the Zakat.

00:51:55.300 So I've always known this, this isn't hidden, so it's always been just somewhat surreal

00:52:00.300 when Westerners say, oh, these are our friends and allies.

00:52:03.180 And I've also been on record to say it's really hypocritical for the United States to say

00:52:07.460 were warring against iran because they are radical muslims when in fact the shia variety of islam is

00:52:15.060 pretty docile compared to the sunni salafi variety which actually permeates and promulgates and

00:52:21.460 lives in those countries you're talking about uh so the whole thing is really messy uh it 1.00

00:52:26.580 it should be a lot clearer if one understood who who we're dealing with but you know diplomacy and

00:52:32.420 real politics and people exploiting the situation on both sides is the way it is

00:52:38.660 raymond hang on for a second uh also raymond quickly you're gonna stick with me but where

00:52:42.820 people go to get your books i want people this guy has written three of the best books i've ever
