00:05:10.660Well, I'm going to get to that in a second.
00:05:12.360GDP restatement up, core inflation light, the economic plan of President Trump investment working even with this war.
00:05:20.160Now the best is in charge of the economic warfare part of that.
00:05:22.880And Scott said on Sunday, nobody picked up.0.96
00:05:24.920He says, I think the Persians are two, three, four weeks away from throwing in the towel because they can't take the economic pressure anymore.
00:05:32.240Like Scott said from the very beginning, the secretary of treasury, former contributor here at the war room.
00:05:37.220I want to go back, though, because I know a lot of people from my investment banking days and others, a lot of folks in Canada.
00:05:43.220The one thing you and President Trump are doing and you and the Oval Office the other day and you're in your talk at the Willard Hotel, I kind of think a historic talk because the first time the Canadian government and companies have been called out for these lobbyists and how they're screwing the Canadian people talk to you mentioned.
00:06:01.520And this is why the globalists in Canada, their heads are blown up.
00:06:05.080And you're public enemy number one, Navarra, now worse than President Trump.0.77
00:06:09.200Talk to me about you set a staging ground for the Chinese Communist Party economically.0.55
00:06:16.480I talked about the great game of what they're doing there and how we provide the missile defense and everything for the Canadians.
00:06:21.380A significant part of our defense budget is to go to protect our allies and northern neighbors because the Canadians have always fought with us shoulder to shoulder.0.83
00:06:31.520But talk to me about the Chinese Communist Party infiltration of every aspect of Canada.
00:06:37.600Welcome by Carney, who's a Goldman Sachs banker out of out of England and the Bank of England, all of that.
00:06:44.920He's a total globalist. And that's what's cheering him on.
00:06:47.880You saw from the TV coverage. But talk to me about the reality of the Chinese Communist Party's using Canada as a staging ground against the United States of America economically, sir.0.74
00:06:58.320Well, first of all, let's understand that the Canadian defense budget consists entirely of0.60
00:07:05.700buying hockey sticks for their population. That's it. They don't have anything and they expect us
00:07:12.220to defend it. They're worse than the NATO countries when it comes to sucking off the0.99
00:07:16.980American teeth, okay, and freeloading off us. Now, what Carney, Carney's playing checkers0.97
00:07:24.520in a chess world. He's got this vision where somehow he can bring in the Chinese and use them1.00
00:07:31.820kind of as a leverage against us and make us do what we want. And what he's doing now is actively1.00
00:07:39.540courting the Chinese, courting their investment. They want Chinese factories in there. They want
00:07:45.640this, that, and the other thing. And he's oblivious to the fact that that model, when you look at what
00:07:52.400happens worldwide. When you invite the Chinese inside your borders, they eat you alive instead1.00
00:07:58.960of eating you alive from outside their borders. And Xi Jinping, his vision is to get, look at1.00
00:08:06.780Canada, a landmass with like very few people and resources. He's like salivating. He wants to come
00:08:13.660in, set up electric vehicle plants, and then just wait for a Democrat to get in the White House,0.57
00:08:20.880pull the tariffs down and just flood our markets, wipe out Detroit.0.60
00:08:26.760And right now, aluminum and steel in Canada controlled by the Chinese as well already.
00:09:10.020You've got a great piece up at The Washington Times that talks about RAV is now the new pool feed.
00:09:14.620But since Fox News jumped in and partnered with the legacy media, you make a case that they should pull that the White House or start playing tough and start pulling guests over at Fox News.
00:09:25.180I'll get into that also. But for right now, where they go to get all the content from Dr.
00:09:30.120Peter Navarro, the trade and manufacturing czar over in the White House, sir.
00:09:36.220The first stop is Amazon. Why Fauci must rot in prison.
00:11:00.240a pebble beach with a camera um very honored to have katherine harridge join us katherine i'm
00:11:07.320going to hold you through the break because i've got to get into the situation your um stand on
00:11:13.880um really journalistic integrity and particularly when deals with the chinese cameras party what
00:11:19.240they're trying to force you to do also your your your research on directed energy and many things
00:11:24.760you're doing in defense uh first off though i'd like i noticed on social media you were doing
00:11:28.840some commentary or observations on the jack smith of it all yesterday can you just give us
00:11:34.100your basic observations of i mean we were very disappointed that this happened so late and it
00:11:41.140seemed like great theatrics and great drama we had some great polls but our question is where does it
00:11:46.100go from here what did you think yesterday i noticed on social media you had commentary on jack smith
00:11:50.400your thoughts ma'am well i thought the hearing uh would drive to some really new information
00:11:57.700And I think it did in some respects. I think the big takeaway is that the investigations by Jack Smith, whether it was the special counsel investigation or these precursor investigations, were much broader and more sweeping than I think most Americans realize.
00:12:13.060One of the headlines yesterday, Steve, was that about 5,000 Americans who made political donations to the Republican Party, and these are small donations, you know, $5, $10, even $1, their financial information was gathered as part of the Jack Smith investigation.
00:12:29.340So addresses, names, phone numbers, bank account numbers and routing numbers.
00:12:34.900And as I believe it was Senator Lee said, this is a direct violation of the Fourth Amendment.
00:12:40.880So in his view, it was an unlawful search and seizure of just average Americans and their rights to donate to a political party.
00:16:46.080We're clearly in the middle of a major kinetic conflict in Persia that we've, you know, kind of stood down for a while.
00:16:53.520And Scott Besson is doing more of the economic warfare.
00:16:57.100Given your coverage of the Pentagon and your coverage of national security over decades,
00:17:01.500where do you think we stand right now with all this, ma'am, through your reporting?
00:17:07.300Well, based on my experience, and I'm in the middle of a landmark First Amendment case
00:17:13.160about the protection of confidential sources, the decision that is standing right now in the
00:17:20.720federal court here in Washington, D.C. means that national security reporters like myself
00:17:24.800have the fewest protections for their sources in the part of the country where we do the most
00:17:31.480reporting on national security. If I was reporting in another part of the country, for example,
00:17:38.000Boston, the subpoena that I'm subject to would have been thrown out years ago. And so there's
00:17:43.340what's called a circuit split. There are different rules in different parts of the country. But I
00:17:47.160think what Americans should be caring about is that we want to have the strongest protections
00:17:51.940for journalists and their confidential sources, because that's how you, as they like to say,
00:17:56.220speak truth to power and seek accountability. And I think that's especially important in the
00:18:00.720environment that we're operating in right now, Steve. You've been doing this for how many years?
00:18:07.620Almost 40 years now. I've been an investigative reporter. I started my career at ABC in London
00:18:14.120doing radio. Then I moved to television. I spent 22 years at Fox News, and I was the chief
00:18:21.160intelligence correspondent. And then I went to CBS for about five years as their senior
00:18:25.360investigative correspondent. Now I work independently. So it's almost, I'm almost
00:18:29.060embarrassed to admit it. It's 40 years, but journalism has been one of the greatest love
00:18:34.040affairs of my life. There's nothing that is more satisfying to me to get acknowledgement and to get
00:18:40.320accountability, you know, on both sides of the aisle. From London and then to Fox where you
00:18:48.180the intel and then national security over at cbs what is reporting on the uh on what we call the
00:18:55.120deep state or the national security apparatus the intelligence apparatus is it from your
00:19:00.480perspective is it getting harder or is it easier in the fact that people have a basic level of
00:19:06.900knowledge about uh these systems today ma'am well i just to give you one example when i think back
00:19:13.460to 2016, when I was doing a lot of reporting on the Russia collusion allegations, that was very
00:19:19.680difficult. You felt like you were constantly swimming upstream because there was a very
00:19:24.300entrenched traditional or mainstream narrative about Russia collusion and President Trump. So
00:19:30.460as some of these House committees, particularly the House Intelligence Committee, were able to
00:19:35.220release records, I'm a big believer in documents because it speaks for itself,
00:19:39.800we started to see that there was a lot more to the story. And ultimately, the dossier was
00:19:45.820a fraud. It was Democrat-funded opposition research. So this was hard, very hard in a
00:19:55.120traditional sense. I think actually today, there's no place to hide. I don't think you can hide
00:20:01.940information anymore like maybe you could 10 years or 15 years ago. Because if you're not getting
00:20:07.800information from, you know, legacy outlets or corporate outlets, you can find what they're
00:20:13.860not covering on all the platforms now. So I actually think in some respects, it's getting
00:20:18.920easier to identify what maybe a decade ago, people wanted to keep secret.
00:20:26.020Do you, you've worked for, I mean, legendary legacy media, ABC, CBS, Fox, do you feel as
00:20:32.860an independent, because it's one of the reasons we're providing the pool feed now with the
00:20:37.200technology that our channel has and the ability to understand streaming much better than the
00:20:42.900legacy media that seems that they're almost like dinosaurs as far as their understanding of
00:20:47.260technology and streaming and how you distribute content out to people. Do you feel you have more
00:20:52.460freedom today as an independent journalist, but you still got to rely upon your own instincts and
00:20:57.760I guess your own fiduciary responsibility about what you put up? I think as an independent
00:21:04.240journalist, there's huge pluses and huge minuses. The thing I miss the most is a newsroom. And I
00:21:11.100find myself many times reaching out to former investigative supervisors that I worked with
00:21:17.580to get advice on how to pursue a story, because I think that that energy and that feedback you
00:21:22.260get in a newsroom is incredibly important. Among the pluses, though, is that you can really pursue
00:21:27.900stories in a very, very aggressive way. And you can do it on your timetable. And you can do it
00:21:33.620when the information is ready. I've spoken in the past about how when I was at CBS News,
00:21:39.540we did some great reporting with the IRS whistleblowers, but there was some reporting
00:21:43.820that was held back because of a political timetable. Specifically, when I did this
00:21:48.020forensic review of Hunter Biden's laptop, the story was ready to go before the midterms,
00:21:52.400and then it was held by CBS until after the midterms. So as an independent journalist,
00:21:57.340you can move ahead when the information is ready. And I think one area that I've really been
00:22:03.560able to pursue in a way that maybe I couldn't if I was still at CBS News was Havana syndrome or
00:22:09.380directed energy weapons. And I think that I've made some inroads and some accomplishments in
00:22:16.920the last two years as an independent journalist I probably could not have made if I had been
00:22:20.900working at a major corporate outlet. Why is that? Why on directed energy, which is something that
00:22:27.680you're leading, really the leading journalists on, why on directed energy do you feel that if
00:22:31.580you're at a, at more of a legacy or corporate media, that it'd be harder? Why? I think that
00:22:38.860there's a lot of deference at these larger outlets for, um, these intelligence agencies. Um, and,
00:22:45.380um, and I understand that because I respect the work that they do as well, but there, I think
00:22:49.200sometimes people are afraid to challenge them in the way that they ought to be, um, challenged. Um,
00:22:53.900and I say this with some humility. We did, I did some reporting on Mike Beck, who was a
00:22:59.140former counterintelligence officer. He was hit by a directed energy weapon in 1996.
00:23:04.760And what I showed in my reporting is that the brain injuries are very progressive over time.
00:23:08.700In his case, he had early onset Parkinson's in his 40s and in his 60s, he could no longer care
00:23:14.560for himself and he had to move into assisted living. And it was this dramatic decline in
00:23:20.980Mike Beck that prompted D.N.I. Gabbard to initiate a new review of intelligence assessments about
00:23:28.660Havana syndrome or directed energy weapons. And to her great credit, she recalled those Biden-era
00:23:34.800assessments, which said that it was highly unlikely that a foreign adversary or that a novel weapon
00:23:40.100was involved. So to me, that was an example of where I could really push the envelope on a story.
00:23:46.160And it's the ideal scenario where someone in government is paying attention and says, hey,
00:23:51.100we need to take a second look at that. And to her credit, she did. And I think what the Biden
00:23:57.260administration did to injured American personnel and civilians, uh, in the last four or five years
00:24:03.620is, um, I want to say it's almost criminal what they did to them. The, the amount of suffering
00:24:10.420that they inflicted on these people by gaslighting them, that there was no such thing and that they0.94
00:24:14.480were crazy. They didn't have brain injuries. I think that that's just, it goes against everything0.84
00:24:19.220that we should be standing for. We should have the backs of these people who've, who've served
00:24:23.640our country. Let me ask you before I let you go. We just had Dr. Navarro on from the White House
00:24:29.460about this Canadian situation and particularly the Chinese Communist Party aspect of it, which
00:24:33.820is never reported. And I don't want to get into your case, but your case does have, obviously,
00:24:39.920the Chinese Communist Party. Do you feel that the legacy media, because we pride ourselves in being
00:24:45.300one of the top, if not the top, investigative shop on things with the CCP, given their influence in
00:24:51.100the country, given their influence in American business, culture, universities, all that,
00:24:55.160do you think the legacy media is doing its job to really be a major investigative force of exactly
00:25:01.120what the Chinese Communist Party is up to in our own country? I think one of the things,
00:25:06.260and I'll speak more generally, is that I'm very saddened by the fact that big legacy outlets have
00:25:12.680really stepped back from investigative journalism in the way that I would hope that they would
00:25:17.740pursue it. You can't be risk averse to do this kind of work. And that's the kind of work that
00:25:24.640the American people are looking for. And when you look to the sources that are doing the most
00:25:31.020investigative work, I think generally what you find is that it's really landing with a lot of
00:25:36.480these independent outlets, whether you're doing it on X or YouTube, or you're streaming your own
00:25:41.420work, the Nick Shirley's of the world. I mean, this is reporting that you're not seeing on these
00:25:46.200legacy outlets. So there's a general sort of pulling back from this kind of reporting because
00:25:51.540it takes a lot of resources. And then, of course, companies are risk averse. I mean, just look at my
00:25:58.100situation. This is a story I did almost 10 years ago, and I've been under subpoena now for over
00:26:06.280four years and Fox, to their credit, have stepped up and they have defended me and given me the best
00:26:12.900possible defense. But that can have a chilling effect on other journalists. No one has said
00:26:20.540that my reporting was inaccurate or defamatory. Nothing of the sort. I'm just a witness in this
00:26:27.040case. So I think you can make the argument that it creates a disincentive for investigative
00:26:32.160journalism when you see what it can ultimately require in the end in terms of holding your
00:26:38.220ground and defending your sources. I know you've got a bounce. I want to send everybody over to
00:26:45.320your site. Where do people go on social media and your site to get your podcast, to get your

00:41:21.160watchers and poll workers go to protectthevote.com. Very important. Thanks for having me on. Action,
00:41:28.520action, action. Glad to be here. Steve Stern, thank you, man. The hardest working. Are you 82 now?
00:41:37.680How old are you? So we got to get some of these young people on from Turning Point and from
00:41:43.300Manhattan YRs. They're always. But the YRs, which stand for young Republicans, are so important in0.65
00:41:49.820this country. Look, as me as 85 and you up in the 70s, you know, we got to get the younger people
00:41:55.440involved. We got to train them. You know, the Broward Republican Executive Committee, which I
00:42:01.000am the vice chair, and we're getting a lot of people involved. You ask about if people are
00:42:05.240getting involved. Precinct Strategy, Dan Schultz, myself, and you have worked many years doing this,
00:42:11.240and they are stepping up. People are joining everywhere. I got five people in the last week
00:42:15.960at Browell County, stepping up to join.
00:47:32.800For that, you're going to get 150 minutes a month, Stephen.
00:47:35.480Those roll over if you don't use them.
00:47:37.280So that's going to make sure that you and your family are always ready, always protected, and always able to communicate no matter what is going on in the environment around you.
00:47:45.840So I love the fact you get the minutes and they roll over if you don't use them.
00:47:49.140Just give me a minute on why is this phone so special?
00:47:52.980Why is this phone, and particularly in emergencies, when your cell phone's down and you can't get contact with anybody because your traditional cell phone doesn't work?
00:48:04.060Why is the ISAT so impressive and so important?
00:48:07.520Well, it doesn't rely on any cell phone towers or any kind of ground infrastructure.
00:48:12.200The ISAT phone, too, basically communicates directly with a satellite.
00:48:16.360It skips the middleman of the cell tower, if you like.
00:48:20.000So it is not it doesn't matter what is going on or where you are or where you're actually located, because less than 10 percent of planet Earth is actually covered by cell phone service when everything's working.
00:48:31.580Most areas are not covered, but even in the areas that are covered, you know, you're going to be able to get service no matter what is going on.
00:48:38.740That's the beauty of these satellite phones is that they work no matter what.
