00:02:17.760And so having said that, it is also very, very important to hear a governor like Westmore, governor like Beshear and others lean into this conversation because it will be state officials, folks.
00:02:31.160At the end of the day, as a former state official, I can tell you it will be state officials who are going to be the bulwark from the governor on down across the state against what this administration has already got in the works, let alone what they're planning to do next.
00:02:49.420Jack Smith was on our air last week and he said that he was absolutely concerned about this.
00:02:54.120And I think that someone of his stature saying that just magnifies how important this issue is.
00:02:59.040You look at the list of things that we're going to talk to Mark Elias about today.
00:03:02.840You have stuff where the Trump administration is withholding funds that have been earmarked for counterterrorism until states adhere to what they want.
00:03:12.340You have this idea that you're going to send local monitors into Michigan elections because they're uncomfortable with what's happening there.
00:03:20.080So you're starting to see them roll out all the things they want to do, which is a suppression tactic.
00:04:09.000When that doesn't do what he wants it to do, he goes to court.
00:04:12.780When the courts shut him down and he loses in court, then he escalates to further rhetoric and inspires his supporters to use extra legal methods.
00:04:24.640Now, if what I just described sounds like what happened in 2020, it is, right?
00:04:29.960Donald Trump attacked mail-in voting before the election.
00:04:32.700He attacked the election results afterwards.
00:04:48.600Then there were court cases about, for example, him trying to send people out of the country to foreign gulags.
00:04:53.200And when that failed, you saw U.S. citizens being killed in the streets in places like Minneapolis.
00:05:01.480And so, like, I very much worry that this November, as we head towards these elections, Donald Trump doesn't have a plan B that is like, OK, lower, lower, you know, costs reach to the center.
00:05:17.400He doesn't have that. He's got only one plan. And that is, as I said, it is to make it harder
00:05:21.960for people to vote and easier for him to cheat. And what happens is because it's really hard for
00:05:27.780him to pull that off because the courts have not gone along with it in the past. When that fails,
00:05:32.220Simone, what you are left with is him escalating the rhetoric. And then we've seen what happens.
00:05:39.140this is the primal scream of a dying regime pray for our enemies because we're going to
00:05:49.420medieval on these people here's not got a free shot all these networks lying about the people
00:05:55.980the people have had a belly full of it i know you don't like hearing that i know you try to do
00:06:00.160everything in the world to stop that but you're not going to stop it it's going to happen and
00:06:03.500Where do people like that go to share the big line?
00:07:08.200We have a truncated version today, just an hour of the war,
00:07:11.060and we're going to go live to the evidentiary hearing
00:07:16.080or essentially a grand jury that you're sitting in as the grand jury members.
00:07:21.580of the assassination of the great Charlie Kirk.
00:07:27.040And so we'll turn that over today, and then we're going to be back.
00:07:31.240At 5, it looks like we're during the time that we get at least a 10 or 15-minute break,
00:07:36.320and Wendy Patrick will come up and give a summary of what's going on.
00:07:40.480But for those in the audience have been pretty vast watching this,
00:07:43.720which we think is quite, quite, quite important,
00:07:46.180because every day we toss to Charlie Kirk at the noon hour for the Charlie Kirk show.
00:07:50.860We still toss to the Charlie Kirk show, but we used to do it with the Charlie Kirk before he was assassinated out in Utah.
00:08:00.680We've got some of the war you just saw right there.
00:08:03.640They're starting to squirm before the release of information, declassified information regarding foreign involvement and the stealing of the 20 interference and stealing of the 2020 election.
00:08:15.500And then whatever happens afterwards, I hope either we expedite the Save America Act, if you can't expedite it, my recommendation is you've got a national security emergency and you should go.
00:08:29.840The president of the United States commander in chief has a obligation and a duty to protect the vote in November so it can't be stolen by these open border nullification project.
00:08:42.920mandami newsome bass uh the mayor of chicago um jacob fry and waltz in minnesota you go on and on0.99
00:08:53.240the new the new um the new mecca for transgenderism which is seattle because they're all flooding in
00:08:59.240there you go to these cities they they are more about nullification than john c calhoun1.00
00:09:06.320and we know where that led this is leading to the same folks the same place folks as sure as the
00:09:13.300turning of the earth they see msnbc now they're squirming and yammer and squirm and yammer all
00:09:20.680you want get mark elias up there every day get weissman up there every day every show do it
00:09:27.580bring it bring your best because we're not stopping we're not prepared to have any more
00:09:32.700elections stolen this country we're not prepared to have the invasion of this country uh in the0.90
00:09:38.780with uh every foreigner in the world coming here and living off the american people should be no0.77
00:09:45.320more it should be a 10-year hiatus minimum on all quote-unquote legal or what i say the the con and
00:09:52.680the scam immigration and then mass deportations saw mike how you're seeing the great photos mike
00:09:58.300rolling around the Capitol, you know, making people's heads blow up with the panel truck
00:10:05.000that had about mass deportations, had warroom.org on the side of it.
00:10:10.980The Mass Deportation Coalition is one of the, it's the fastest thing I've seen grown here
00:10:23.840The president's been shown false data, bad information.
00:10:27.440Yesterday, I was honored to join Tony Lyons in this Make America Healthy Again call that takes place every Wednesday.
00:10:35.220I want to make sure we're going to start putting it up on our own sites on Getter and Rumble and all these other platforms,
00:10:42.240which comes to, I don't know, 15 million people, 15 million eyes.
00:10:46.480We're going to start putting it up because it's a fascinating, and we'll start getting folks on The War Room.
00:10:50.080It's a fascinating conversation every week.
00:10:51.920And I just joined to say, hey, look, they came out to kind of handcuff Bobby Kennedy and handcuff Make America Healthy Again, which is a coalition partner.
00:11:01.560The power of Make America Healthy Again is that it's a grassroots movement.
00:11:05.540That's why there was such a nice, easy fit from the very beginning.
00:11:11.000The concerned mothers about the education policies, what they saw their kids doing, the pandemic, what they saw about the vaccines.
00:11:18.240what they saw about everything dealing with Fauci
00:12:45.820If you show people there's a program and here's the program, here's what we're going to do and we're going to hit our marks, the MAGA movement will come out, they'll come out in droves.
00:12:56.600Look at the redistricting in Virginia.
00:13:00.000You know, Ryer, the chairman of the GOP, DeLois Stallman and all these great grassroots leaders in the Commonwealth of Virginia that rally people with no money, with no money.
00:13:09.860I mean, Spicer's sitting there going, it's amazing what can happen when the grassroots is involved.
00:13:14.160but we got to get our mind right we're in for a fight and we're in for the fight really the
00:13:19.420political fight of the maga movement in a off in a midterm election when obviously the propensity
00:13:26.720to vote is much lower you saw what's happening and listen what happened to the tea party plattner's
00:13:32.580no he's not a good guy he's actually a very bad guy but his economic message and look he's a
00:13:41.320socialist but the democratic party is controlled more by donors than even the republican party
00:13:46.780they're controlled by oligarchs oligarch that want to destroy the culture of this0.95
00:13:52.800american republic that's the dark money in back of mandani
00:13:56.060that's what came in and tried to uh and tried to uh they said platner is too radical economically
00:14:03.020so they got him out of the way i think they've put maine back in our back in our column
00:14:11.600Without Maine, and I've said, hey, we're going to lose the Senate because of Thune,
00:19:10.600If they don't want to be a vassal state, and I know they hate when I say that, but hey, if you don't want to be a vassal state and a protectorate and you want to go and you want to march to Beirut, you want to march to Damascus, which President Trump just took off the terrorist list, you want to march to Tehran, march, go, go for it.
00:19:28.760You're a sovereign nation, tough people, IDF, you got tough hombres over there, march, get General Keene, give him a field promotion, get Mark Levin, get that big mouth in a front tank.
00:25:12.380But that's the way to bring them to the knees.
00:25:14.440You, the surrender, the option of getting out doesn't mean surrender.
00:25:17.940It means take care of the objectives you've got.
00:25:20.040Now, I will tell you, if we go down the route of which they put a division in, not only have we ended the Trump movement for eternity, we've ended the Republican Party for eternity.
00:25:31.400The American people are not going to tolerate that.
00:25:33.020I think there would be an overwhelming 90 percent of people go, whoa, no way, baby.
00:25:37.620We were in Iraq and Afghanistan for 20 years, $9 trillion, $10,000 dead.
00:25:42.140That's just the military, not even the contractors, right?
00:25:46.560You go on any street in America, you get homeless.
00:25:48.500So you've got to thread the needle here, but that's where you need constancy and kind of message.
00:25:53.500But look, to me, Jim, help me out here.0.99
00:25:56.000The mullahs aren't going to listen until you hit them upside the head with something more than a bomb because they don't care how many people die.0.99
00:26:01.840They don't even care how many mullahs die.0.99
00:26:03.820They get tens of thousands of mullahs.
00:26:07.380They've been doing this against the Greeks and the Romans forever.1.00
00:26:10.620In fact, we're going to have the head of the Hellenic Council on next to talk about Turkey and the whole region as the Greeks see it, because they've been fighting this for 3,500 years.
00:26:21.560So your plan of, I don't call it surrender, but a let's get the hell out smartly, having accomplished our objective, sir, your thoughts.
00:33:04.760You get three months for that price, and then you have 30 days.
00:33:08.420If you don't like it, you can cancel a full money-back guarantee, no problem,
00:33:11.560and you can keep all the bonus reports.
00:33:13.540But for $17.76, the landing page is recordsintel.com, recordsintel.com.
00:33:21.780But that's where you go to get the special offer.
00:33:23.780This is the cheapest it's ever been, and we love the $17.76 handle.
00:33:27.300By the way, the special reports, the bonus reports you get with us are about what we call the American birthright.
00:33:32.340It's basically a Trump administration opening up federal lands, drilling exploration, Gulf of America, oil, et cetera, and how investors can participate in that.
00:34:26.420Number one, the Greeks have been doing this with the Persians for a long time, correct?
00:34:31.860That's right, and they've got a great record.
00:34:34.800President Trump should have tapped in and should have tagged in the Greeks.
00:34:37.460If it wasn't for you guys standing tall against overwhelming odds for some bad hombres, and these people are tough, we wouldn't have democracy as we know it today, correct?0.76
00:34:49.700I mean, clearly there's a lot of literature and studies about this, and we can go back to the original source.
00:34:57.680But if it wasn't for the Battle of Salamis and then the Spartans at 300 buying time for the rest of the Greeks to regroup, there would have been no West as we know it.
00:35:11.160Go tell the Spartans, as we say, right?
00:35:13.660So what's the lesson? Give me give me the lesson that that that the White House, President Trump, National Security Council, our audience, what should be if the Greeks were to give us, you know, if we go back in time and they were to give us a both a warning and guidance, what would it be, sir?0.62
00:35:29.060Yeah, I would go to look to a singular figure that a lot of people don't talk about. They talk about Leonidas and they talk about Alexander the Great when it comes to the Persians, but I would look to Themistocles.
00:35:43.300Themistocles knew when the Athenians had won the Battle of Marathon that the Persians were going to come back with greater force.0.72
00:35:52.060And he put the city on course to build the triremes, to build these ships.
00:35:59.340And those ships saved Western civilization.0.89
00:36:04.040And that's the lesson, that lesson in strategy and forethought, because it's really disheartening that we're getting checked in the Strait of Hormuz.
00:36:18.080America is the greatest naval power of all time.
00:36:21.220And we didn't think of how somebody with some cheap technology and drones, and we also have to be thinking of their pirates.1.00
00:36:31.920And what's horrible, what's horrible, horrible about this is what are the lessons that the Chinese are learning?0.98
00:36:38.620If the Iranians can do to this and the Straits of Hormuz, what can the Chinese who have significantly better technology, anti-access and area denial weaponry, do to us in the South China Sea?0.96
00:36:54.260So we have to think strategically.0.96
00:36:56.520We shouldn't be thinking of, you know, we can just throw some force because we're not going to put troops.
00:37:02.680We're not going to put boots on the ground.
00:37:04.280There's no reasoning for putting boots on the ground.0.99
00:37:07.560And so we should be looking to Themistocles.0.77
00:38:31.360Erdogan, this is his mission in life before he goes.
00:38:35.920You've been one of the most stalwart nations in having our back, right?
00:38:41.040And you bring all these ancient lessons.0.99
00:38:43.780The dangerous neighborhood of the eastern Mediterranean, particularly with the Turks,0.76
00:38:48.620the revolving in NATO, but particularly now, we're taking sanctions off, and I'm a sanctions guy.
00:38:54.400We're taking sanctions off and discussing selling the F-35.
00:38:57.540Your thoughts, what do the Greeks think about that, sir?
00:39:01.860Well, so I'm, you know, I think it's what you said.
00:39:07.860The closer Athens and Washington have been over, they've been on the same side of every conflict.
00:39:14.800As we celebrate our 250th birthday here in the United States, we got to, our founding fathers looked to the ancient Greeks for inspiration for our democracy.0.58
00:39:26.620So and Greece has always hit its NATO targets. Greece is given the U.S. major basing rights that the U.S. capabilities both in Ukraine and in the Middle East would have been different if it weren't for the basing rights they have in Greece.
00:39:45.420What you described, absolutely correct on Erdogan, and even worse, because it's not only he wants to bring back in his eyes what was the glory of the Ottoman Empire, he marries it with 20th century political Islam.
00:40:02.360Erdogan is the leader, presently, of the Muslim Brotherhood in the Middle East, and we're seeing it in Syria.0.70
00:40:11.080We're seeing it with his sponsorship of Hamas.
00:40:14.800We're seeing it with what he's doing elsewhere in the region.
00:40:18.600In Libya, his previous tension with Egypt was about the Muslim Brotherhood.0.70
00:40:26.500But he thinks the Ottoman Empire was great.0.96
00:40:53.380There wasn't just one day in Armenian genocide.
00:40:55.940There was a 30-year genocide that killed over a million Armenians, Christians, Assyrians.
00:41:02.940If somebody wants to go look at it, they can go find what the population, what the Christian population of Turkey was at the turn of the century, at the end of the Ottoman Empire, and what it is today.0.91
00:49:12.560The reason I say that, you know, Lincoln had a version of the King James Version of the Bible, the Old and New Testament.
00:49:21.360He had the plays and sonnets of Shakespeare, and he had Plutarch's lives of the noble Greeks and Romans.
00:49:29.840And the way it's originally written, which is so powerful, anybody today, any kid today, pick up these moral lessons because what he did, he did the Greek, and he did the counterpart to the Roman.
00:49:39.480about how the societies were different and you read it and you understand you really start to
00:49:45.100understand the west you start to understand the underpinnings of the west and this is why
00:49:49.120greece has so much to teach us now in the lessons of greece and the lessons of rome hey you know
00:49:55.260who believed that 250 years ago the founders of this nation they've really been they studied
00:50:01.140they studied greece and they studied the roman republic in excruciating detail for the lessons
00:50:07.360And that would come even further on the foundation of the country.
00:50:13.540There's another book people can read about.
00:50:15.080Thomas Ricks wrote a great book called First Principles.
00:50:18.740And you see how they were exactly looking to that ancient wisdom, not hero worship, but ancient wisdom, saying these are the principles we were founded on.
00:50:30.620These are also the mistakes they made.
