00:00:00.000 For 251 years, the United States Marine Corps has stood at the tip of the nation's spear,
00:00:15.120 the vanguard of freedom, the first to fight and the last to yield.
00:00:22.320 Every battle fought, every objective secured, every hill taken, and every sacrifice made
00:00:28.720 has added another chapter to a legacy carried forward by generations of marines for more than
00:00:35.600 two and a half centuries marines have upheld a promise forged under fire hardened by sacrifice
00:00:42.160 and bound by something greater than themselves it is a promise made to the nation to the marines who
00:00:48.720 came before us and to those who will follow it is the promise to be the first to fight
00:00:54.560 to answer when the nation calls to be ready when others are not from the beaches of Nassau
00:01:01.860 to the shores of Tripoli and through the trenches at Bellaloo Woods and the Argonne
00:01:07.440 from the black sands of Iwo Jima to the frozen hills of the Chosen Reservoir
00:01:12.840 across the jungles of Vietnam to the deserts of Iraq and the mountains of Afghanistan
00:01:19.140 Marines have answered that call in every climb and place
00:01:24.180 across the centuries the character of war has changed battlefields have evolved
00:01:31.840 uniforms have progressed weapons have transformed
00:01:35.400 enemies have risen and enemies have fallen
00:01:40.300 but one thing has remained unchanged since the 10th of november 1775 the warrior spirit
00:01:49.360 From the great battles of the past and to those ahead that will test the nation, the Marine Corps has existed for one purpose, to fight and to win.
00:02:02.560 To those who came before us, to those who stand watch today, and those who have yet to earn the title, happy 251st birthday, semper fidelis.
00:02:19.360 From the homes of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli, we fight our country's battles on the land and on the sea.
00:02:36.140 First to fight for right and freedom, and to keep our father's lead.
00:02:43.780 We are proud to claim the title of United States Marine.
00:02:51.340 For our plans of birth to every king, from the Rusevice Sun.
00:02:58.540 We have fought in every climate place where we could take our guns.
00:03:05.140 In the snow of far off the land
00:03:09.660 And inside the dropping seas
00:03:13.040 You will always find us on the job
00:03:17.000 The United States Marines
00:03:20.400 There is help to you and to our court
00:03:24.480 Which we are proud to serve
00:03:27.700 With many a strength we fought for life
00:03:31.780 And never lost our land
00:03:35.020 In the Army and the Navy
00:03:38.820 Ever long on heaven's feet
00:03:42.480 They will find the streets of God
00:03:45.960 And fight the United States Army
00:04:05.020 it's tuesday 10 november year of the lord 2026 we got very good news coming out of
00:04:11.820 capitol hill we'll get to in a moment with david zier and um neil mccabe about this vote on pete
00:04:18.760 uh but wade miller you're a marine this is kind of what it comes down to today that's why i was
00:04:25.280 so happy that we the audience got to listen to these charges on the impeachment because the end
00:04:31.880 of the day, this all gets down to backing our fighting men and women in our different
00:04:38.540 uniformed services. And of course, the Marines, the legendary Marines, take a particularly pride
00:04:44.280 in being the toughest and the first in the devil dogs and the tip of the spear. Talk to me about
00:04:50.960 it. What does it mean for you, a Marine, today, of all days when they're trying to impeach the
00:04:55.640 Secretary of War? Well, I think that there's a lot to take away from what the Marine Corps taught
00:05:01.840 I mean, I think most of America could benefit, which is that, you know, you kind of relish the fight.
00:05:06.680 You have to be you have to wake up every day to understand that you may be outnumbered, may be surrounded.
00:05:13.620 But as Chesty Puller said, you know, in the frozen chosen in Korea, you know, they're in front of us.
00:05:19.880 They're behind us. They're on both flanks.
00:05:21.640 Outnumber us 29 to one. They can't get away from us now.
00:05:24.260 And I think in this time specifically having that aggressive mindset, the fight isn't over, that we're still in it.
00:05:30.600 this country is not dead yet. We are here to fight for it. We are Americans, we're Marines,
00:05:36.160 we're sailors, we're airmen, we're soldiers, or we're just American citizens of this country.
00:05:41.500 And we're here to fight for it. And it's never fully lost. As long as there's one of us out
00:05:46.100 there, the fight for freedom and liberty and the American way of life will continue. And that's
00:05:51.140 not impacted by any one election. And I'm, you know, I think the state of the military is better
00:05:57.540 than it has been in potentially generations. I think that Pete Hegseth has moved mountains
00:06:03.160 to bring the warrior ethos back to the entire military. He's gotten the rod out. He's found
00:06:09.080 all of these woke generals that are pushing a progressive worldview on our military and gotten
00:06:15.360 in the way of just focusing on what it means to love your country, to take that oath, to train,
00:06:20.940 to kill the enemies of this country, and to focus on that mission, to learn how to become the
00:06:26.300 greatest warrior you can possibly be. And I know that that's certainly what I got when I went in
00:06:30.680 the Marine Corps. My gunny made sure that I was the absolute best warfighter that I could be in
00:06:34.540 the time that he had me. And those traditions are coming back. And I think that instead of trying to
00:06:39.440 impeach him, we should be thanking Pete Hanks. We should be thanking President Trump for moving the
00:06:44.700 military and reinvigorating what it means to be a Marine, what it means to be a person who serves
00:06:50.100 in the United States military. They should get medals for what they're doing, for crying out
00:06:53.820 that. And the left is trying to weaponize our government to now persecute them for what they're
00:06:58.560 doing. And by the way, this isn't about wars. I'm a realist. I have disagreements on Iran policy.
00:07:05.820 But Pete Hakeseth is fundamentally a good man who's trying to do the right thing
00:07:10.520 to reinvigorate what it means to be a United States Marine in this country.
00:07:16.520 I want to go to the Marine Corps for a second, because I think that of all the services,
00:07:20.480 you do the best job the marines do the best job of tying back their traditions and their history
00:07:27.420 all the way from their birth and everything every evolution they had every fight they were in
00:07:34.460 and they take those traditions in that history and they make it a core part of not simply their
00:07:41.980 training but your whole being as a marine now the other services the navy tries that the army
00:07:47.040 tries. But it seems to me that the Marine Corps
00:07:51.060 imbues that not just simply fighting spirit, but the history of their
00:07:55.160 fighting spirit and the traditions around their fighting spirit. Talk to me
00:07:59.260 about that for a moment. I think it really starts the way
00:08:03.200 boot camp is conducted. Just the level of
00:08:07.100 discipline that is ingrained in you and accountability
00:08:10.360 and integrity and doing the right thing even when no one's looking.
00:08:14.860 But it also strives a competitive nature. You want to be the toughest guy in your unit. You want to be the fastest. You want to be able to carry the most. You don't want to be the weak chain or link in the chain. You want to be at least better than the average person in your unit.
00:08:31.720 And at the end of the day, we're all trying to help one another achieve that.
00:08:35.580 And I think it is a true warrior mentality that I think over decades has been softened in other branches.
00:08:42.440 I think it has remained the most resilient in the Marine Corps because of that ultra Spartan focus on extreme levels of discipline and hard work. 0.71
00:08:52.820 And, you know, at a certain level, I mean, I'm pretty sure it's just doctrine that if you're a gunny, your job is to make everyone, you know, complain and moan and grumble and get mad.
00:09:05.460 The training has to be so hard that you're making a Marine mad so that when we finally unleash these guys, they're going to go forth and take out all of that anger and vengeance on the enemy.
00:09:16.300 But in the process, what has actually happened is that gunny created an esprit de corps between those Marines.
00:09:22.200 Those Marines went through something incredibly difficult and it created a brotherhood, a bond and a warrior mentality that I think, you know, the other branches try to replicate.
00:09:36.440 And I genuinely pray that they can replicate. But but I think that that's coming back.
00:09:41.540 uh talk to us about your service in the core talk to us about uh where you served um what happened
00:09:50.520 and what it uh what changes it made to wade miller well i was a college student i wouldn't say i was
00:09:57.560 a great college student but i was in college and uh i woke up one morning and my dad's living at
00:10:04.520 home going to college trying to save some money and my dad said you should turn on the tv and i
00:10:08.360 turn on the TV. And I watched that entire day as 9-11 unfolded. And I decided right then and there
00:10:15.680 to drop out of college to enlist, not go in as an officer, to enlist as an infantryman,
00:10:23.180 knowing that we were going to go to war. My decision that day was that there are bad people
00:10:28.240 in this world who did bad things to us. I want to be a part of the people that are holding rifles 1.00
00:10:33.320 that go out to hunt those people down i had some marine words i was going to insert there that
00:10:38.380 wouldn't have been appropriate but uh i decided i wanted to do that and i did that and i trained
00:10:43.500 and i served with some of the greatest people i've ever known and we deployed three times into
00:10:48.640 combat uh iraq and the horn of africa uh did countless combat patrols uh we lost some guys
00:10:56.220 in combat that i still think about every day um and you know look whether or not that was the
00:11:01.860 best application at the time, if that, you know, I have my own opinions on that. I think what
00:11:08.740 matters is that, you know, millions of young men woke up that day, and it shaped the rest of their
00:11:16.960 life. And they decided that they wanted to defend this country from the types of people who would
00:11:20.820 do that. And I think that that was in many ways, squandered. But I think that that matters,
00:11:26.800 because that means that they actually thought that there was something to defend. And I think
00:11:31.100 where we have been until recently is in an era where people were starting to not think there
00:11:38.780 was something worth defending. And I think that's why you were seeing recruiting numbers going down
00:11:42.500 because who wants to go serve for an entity that's basically running to represent Somali Muslims or,
00:11:50.720 you know, European progressives as opposed to Americans. And I think that what President Trump
00:11:58.520 and Pete Hague said that is they reminded our youth that there is a country here and a nation
00:12:04.380 that is worth defending. And, you know, to their great credit, millions of Americans have been
00:12:10.940 rising up. And for the first time in years, we're hitting our recruiting numbers. And I think that's
00:12:16.040 fantastic. So God bless them. When you when you think about talking to young people about your
00:12:23.440 years in the core, would you trade that for anything? No, it was the best decision I ever
00:12:32.280 made. Uh, I think anyone who has the opportunity should think about serving their country.
00:12:38.640 It gave me so much, even the five years that I was in, it shaped the rest of my life, who I am.
00:12:45.560 I have some of the best friends in the world because of it. And we, in fact, often go on
00:12:50.860 camping trips. The guys that I went on, especially the guys I went on all three deployments with,
00:12:54.920 we go on camping trips together. They're like family. And I highly encourage people to serve
00:13:01.460 their country, especially if they believe that this country is still worth defending. And I think it
00:13:06.080 is. And I think there's a revitalization. Like, look, I know the elections didn't go well last
00:13:11.500 week for a lot of people, but I don't think that that was a reflection on an America first agenda
00:13:18.340 about what it means for families to thrive at the kitchen table.
00:13:23.360 I think in many ways that those issues were actually successful.
00:13:26.640 And I think it was a failure of our side, you know, to capitalize on those sentiments.
00:13:32.880 You know, but if you are going in, my one piece of advice is that complacency kills.
00:13:39.280 If you're ever going to go join the military, just remember you do the same thing every day,
00:13:44.780 day in and day out.
00:13:45.600 Combat can become repetitive.
00:13:46.800 The biggest threat to that mindset is complacency kills.
00:13:50.340 And the reason I say that is you will hear that a million times if you join the military.
00:13:54.700 But my experience is it is 100 percent correct.
00:13:57.680 You have to go on every day understanding the enemy is out there to kill you and you need to be ready to respond instantaneously and know exactly what to do in an instant.
00:14:07.780 I can't let you go tonight without asking about Texas.
00:14:11.400 Can you give people here help?
00:14:13.080 The more impossible thing has a wake up call.
00:14:15.360 I'm not sure everybody in D.C., as I spent days, a couple of days in meetings here, has a total wake up call on this dire situation in Texas.
00:14:25.960 And if we lose Texas, if Texas becomes a sanctuary state like New York and California, forget it's not about winning elections in 28 or beyond or the census or anything like that.
00:14:38.940 We are in a real jam, and the radical left knows that.
00:14:43.680 Talk to me about the current situation in your beloved Texas.
00:14:48.720 Yeah, so every statewide, the courts, they've all changed.
00:14:52.940 The House flipped over.
00:14:54.620 The Republicans retained the Senate, so that will be somewhat of a bulwark, hopefully, against what the left might try to do there.
00:15:01.540 But the governor there has quite a few powers.
00:15:03.480 So do all of the other statewide offices.
00:15:05.660 They have a lot of powers, and I think you're going to see a weaponization agenda.
00:15:08.940 I know Brian Harrison down there is calling for, and we've also agreed that there needs to be a special session to rescind a lot of those emergency powers the governor has, because Hinojosa there will do a lot with those to do a lot of damage to the people of Texas.
00:15:24.220 And look, I've already seen counterclaims that, well, it would just be a waste of money. People are going to skip or deny quorum. I don't really care about a few million dollars if this can be abused and weaponized against the people of Texas and cost them billions of dollars.
00:15:39.440 They need to call a special session. They need to look at rescinding emergency powers so that at least the Senate can stem the damage of what's about to happen.
00:15:50.620 But look, it is reversible. It is reversible within two years.
00:15:55.280 Now, the governor is going to be an issue for four and need new work on the other statewide.
00:16:01.020 The House can flip back in two, but they've got to run on the right agenda.
00:16:04.060 And I do think that the good news is the left is going to overplay their hand.
00:16:07.760 They're not going to try to consolidate their new voter base or the crossover votes.
00:16:13.040 And so this is a real opportunity for Texans to not look at this and decide, oh, we lost.
00:16:18.860 I get back in the fight. This Texas can be one.
00:16:22.040 It's going to take really smart, strategic action between now and December or now in January and then from through special session and then curtailing and pushing back against the powers of the governor.
00:16:33.640 I think you have to have a lot of counties that are pushing back against state encroachment.
00:16:37.940 You have to have municipalities that act the same. But there are options on the table.
00:16:41.580 Like there is a battle plan to get through this for Texas, but it's got to be enacted and it's going to need people working hard.
00:16:50.720 Wait, where do people get you over at CRA, social media, all of it?
00:16:55.300 Sure. You can find us at America Renewing dot com. That's America Renewing dot com.
00:16:59.780 And I'm at Wade Miller on X. That's at Wade Miller. And you can find all of our socials linked there.
00:17:08.860 Sir, thank you. Thank you for helping us commemorate the United States Marine Corps, the birth.
00:17:14.820 Thanks for having us. Fighting force in the world. Thank you, sir.
00:17:18.620 Let's go to I've got Neil McCabe. Can you get us up to speed?
00:17:22.880 I think we've got a win. And I will tell you, this was a lot of work from the White House.
00:17:28.240 There's a lot of work from Pete Hegseth all afternoon or actually starting in the morning.
00:17:33.000 But I think we've got some good news for the audience.
00:17:37.120 Yeah, I think the Iron Duke would call this a close run thing at the vote was 211 to 204.
00:17:46.560 The only Republican who voted against ICE's promotion to table to the House Judiciary
00:17:53.100 committee was Thomas Massey from Kentucky 6th, who will be returning to private life in January.
00:18:00.640 And so there were about 18 congressmen who didn't show up for this vote by party. But at 211,
00:18:08.800 that means that, you know, the Republicans are at what, 218? You know, I think that, you know,
00:18:14.440 maybe a handful didn't show up, but I think the whipping operation probably should get some
00:18:20.720 credit for pulling this together. I imagine there were some golf streams flying across the country,
00:18:27.740 people being picked up, thrown in vans, thrown in planes. But yeah, big victory. And this means
00:18:35.560 that it goes to judiciary. And at the end of this congressional session, it expires without action.
00:18:43.100 And so the Democrats don't have the votes on the Judiciary Committee to bring it up. And so in
00:18:49.220 effect they've killed it and then of course they you know with 250 plus votes in january
00:18:55.460 they can pretty much do whatever they want but if it does go to a trial it's very doubtful that
00:19:02.220 they would be getting the 67 votes that would be needed to convict and so you have to wonder
00:19:07.140 you know what kind of exercise this is going to be um i don't know let's talk about let's talk
00:19:13.640 about that that's always a preamble so closely because their intention this was never really
00:19:20.220 about pete exit this is about donald trump this is not about bobby kennedy that's about donald
00:19:25.460 trump they're trying to take uh some of his most biggest players in the cabinet and tie him up in
00:19:32.540 these impeachment proceedings and also to try to smear him you can see they're reading the charges
00:19:38.080 everything they were dumping on pete and quite frankly if you've watched the war room like
00:19:42.580 mark kelly you know we were saying hey kelly should be recalled at active duty busted down
00:19:48.740 a couple of ranks stand trial and then shift off to leavenworth for what he did on that video
00:19:53.500 uh milley should be brought back for what he did during his um during his time at uh it's
00:20:00.520 the chairman of the joint chiefs particularly with the chinese communist party um but this
00:20:05.060 is all going to be about the war power this is a preamble to what happens when they come back and
00:20:09.980 they have, what, 256 in the House and they've got 57 in the Senate. This is going to be a preamble
00:20:16.140 for going after President Trump on the war powers. And I happen to think this is something 0.97
00:20:21.140 we should have had years ago, because I believe the War Powers Act is unconstitutional. But,
00:20:27.500 Neil, I don't think it's ever been tested like it's going to test. They are going to want to
00:20:32.800 limit President Trump as commander in chief from doing anything more than policing actions.
00:20:39.980 That's what the Democrats intend.
00:20:41.720 Neil McCabe, thoughts?
00:20:44.480 Well, it's also important to note
00:20:46.940 that Secretary of State Rubio
00:20:49.360 went out of his way
00:20:51.560 to basically follow
00:20:54.860 the reporting requirements
00:20:56.480 of the War Powers Act,
00:20:58.580 saying, I'm doing this as a courtesy,
00:21:00.960 not because I'm accepting
00:21:02.400 the constitutionality
00:21:04.000 of the War Powers Act,
00:21:05.840 which was passed over the veto
00:21:07.860 of President Nixon,
00:21:09.980 But it goes back to what is lawfare.
00:21:12.060 Lawfare is that the process is the punishment.
00:21:15.820 So whether you, you know, you may be acquitted,
00:21:18.460 but we're going to ruin your life
00:21:19.800 and we're going to bankrupt you 0.96
00:21:21.180 and we're going to tie you up.
00:21:23.360 And basically, you know, it goes back to,
00:21:25.780 you know, people start showing up at meetings.
00:21:27.760 Nobody's taking notes.
00:21:28.940 And it just paralyzes the administration,
00:21:35.440 which is frankly what the Russian collusion hoax did
00:21:38.480 to many parts of the government.
00:21:40.180 It just creates this paralysis.
00:21:42.640 And then people don't want to join the administration,
00:21:45.280 people leave the administration,
00:21:47.080 and then it goes on from there.
00:21:48.860 Having said that, this could have been a lot worse.
00:21:52.540 And so they've dodged a bullet.
00:21:54.960 And of course, on the Senate side,
00:21:57.120 nobody on the Senate,
00:21:58.260 as I was going around Capitol Hill today,
00:22:00.780 nobody in the Senate was even paying attention
00:22:02.680 because they don't care what goes on in the House
00:22:06.600 unless it's actually dropped on their doorstep
00:22:09.500 and they have to do something.
00:22:11.680 And so it was really impossible to get any senator
00:22:15.200 to sort of weigh in on it
00:22:16.540 because obviously Joni Ernst has a personal beef
00:22:21.120 going back some,
00:22:22.860 but the senators were kind of staying out of it.
00:22:25.360 And then of course, Dune was reelected today.
00:22:27.840 He will be the minority leader going into the next session.
00:22:31.300 And so when you ask people,
00:22:33.080 why would you do this given the results?
00:22:36.600 Well, the answer was that Senator Thune has an amazing relationship with Senator Schumer.
00:22:43.080 And if Schumer is going to be the new majority leader, it's more important to have that positive relationship because everybody gets along and we're all senators here.
00:22:52.340 And so what really Thune's goal is to get that certificate for being the model prisoner.
00:22:57.140 And so, you know, and then we'll just see.
00:22:59.760 There was a vote before Thune was elected unanimously by voice vote.
00:23:04.860 there was a vote to delay the leadership vote, and that failed 31 to 15. So you have 15 Republican
00:23:13.320 senators who are standing up to Senator Thune and his staff and his machinations and all of his
00:23:21.680 funders. But, you know, of the 15, none of them would actually run against Thune. And so that's
00:23:27.840 sort of the state of play, Steve. Walk me through why victory begets victory. And we started off
00:23:34.540 Last night and this morning, this looked kind of grim.
00:23:37.920 I mean, it looked like this thing was going to—that's why I kept saying, hey, a lot of people are not paying attention to this, but this is going to happen.
00:23:43.520 And Pete's going to get impeached, and they're going to make a big deal about it.
00:23:46.380 They're going to have 48 hours on TV to hammer him and to hammer the way these wars have been conducted.
00:23:53.180 And not the overall strategy of it, not should we be in the Middle East or should we have an Israel-first policy, but actually the nuts and bolts of it. 0.60
00:24:01.380 Talk to me about victory begets victory.
00:24:03.060 You got a couple of minutes left here, Neil, about why this is kind of the first victory the Trump administration has had after the catastrophic defeat, sir.
00:24:13.640 Yeah, actually, it's the Democrats and Thomas Massey did the Republicans a favor because they were able to put up a W when everything looks so dire.
00:24:24.240 And remember going into the next session.
00:24:26.200 Yes, the Democrats are going to have 250, 260, but a lot of them ran as cosplay MAGA.
00:24:35.360 A lot of them ran as lumberjacks or tough-on-crime prosecutors.
00:24:41.020 And so when they're up in two years, the most vulnerable congressmen are always freshman congressmen.
00:24:46.340 And if these House Democrats ran as sort of moderate, reasonable people, sort of the, you know, the sort of, you know, as I said, the cosplay mega, you know, they're going to have to answer that too.
00:24:59.040 And so we'll see how that plays out.
00:25:00.660 But I think an insurgent Republican House conference can do some damage because what's happened in situations before, and we saw it during Trump 45, just because your party has the White House, you can still do things.
00:25:19.180 You can still get things done.
00:25:21.160 And it turns out in that dynamic, the Democrats have to come to you because you're the one who can talk to the president for them.
00:25:29.480 And so that's how it's going to move forward, perhaps, Steve.
00:25:33.800 Neil, hang on one second.
00:25:35.740 We're going to go with the Marine Corps hymn.
00:25:38.740 We're going to come back.
00:25:39.920 Neil is on Capitol Hill Day now at the White House.
00:25:42.580 We're going to take a short commercial break.
00:25:44.000 We're going to be back.
00:25:44.880 And we're going to talk about something that happened not 251 years ago, but 50 years ago in the United States of America.
00:25:53.500 Back in a moment.
00:25:59.480 From the homes of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli, we fight our country's battles on the land and on the sea.
00:26:14.140 First to fight for right and freedom and to keep our modern fleet, we are bound to claim the title of United States Marine.
00:26:28.200 We have fought in every climate place where we could take our guns.
00:26:43.780 In the snow of far off northern France
00:26:47.800 And in sunny dropping seas
00:26:51.140 You will always find us on the job
00:26:55.100 The United States Marines
00:26:58.500 There is help to Ukraine to our court
00:27:02.620 Which we are proud to serve
00:27:05.820 In many a strength we fought for life
00:27:09.880 And never lost our nerve

00:31:41.660 War Room.
00:31:42.920 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:31:45.340 Neil McCabe, I know you want to say something about the Marine Corps, but before that, talk to folks about these, I think, uninspiring leadership in the House and the Senate.
00:31:59.620 It's just going to be more of the same, right?
00:32:02.180 The Senate should understand that they had nobody really backing them.
00:32:07.660 That's why they had these historic losses is because of inaction.
00:32:11.320 And I hope the House gets the same, gets the joke, sir.
00:32:16.160 And I think people need to understand
00:32:18.340 who Jim Jordan really is.
00:32:20.160 And, you know, it's obvious that he's very popular
00:32:22.880 with a lot of people in the base.
00:32:24.500 And I talk to them all the time when they come to DC.
00:32:28.020 And I just, I have to ask them,
00:32:30.100 do you even follow his career?
00:32:32.420 Do you, and so, you know, what do we know about Jim Jordan?
00:32:35.500 So we all loved Louie Gohmert,
00:32:38.280 the Texas congressman who was an absolute patriot,
00:32:42.800 just top-notch patriot.
00:32:44.200 Why did he leave Congress?
00:32:46.440 He left Congress because it was his turn
00:32:48.920 to be the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee.
00:32:52.420 And Kevin McCarthy bumped Jim Jordan above Gohmert
00:32:56.840 so that Gohmert wouldn't do anything
00:33:00.460 at the House Judiciary Committee.
00:33:02.440 And like he was told, Jim Jordan did nothing.
00:33:06.260 He didn't, in this last session,
00:33:08.580 did he impeach any judges?
00:33:10.400 Did he go after anybody?
00:33:12.200 What did he do?
00:33:12.900 He did nothing.
00:33:14.200 So do you know who knows that Jim Jordan did nothing?
00:33:16.900 All of the FBI whistleblowers.
00:33:18.960 Because when the Republicans were running in 22
00:33:21.660 on that midterm to gain control of the House,
00:33:24.440 which they did, right?
00:33:25.780 Jim Jordan went around the country saying,
00:33:27.920 we've got FBI whistleblowers
00:33:29.800 and we're gonna blow the lid off the FBI
00:33:32.000 and just put us in when we have the majority.
00:33:35.660 And what did they do?
00:33:37.260 They did nothing.
00:33:38.680 And at the end of that session of Congress,
00:33:41.100 all of those whistleblowers
00:33:42.720 were basically exposed and then abandoned by Jim Jordan.
00:33:48.840 And so, you know, it's like, where do you want to go?
00:33:51.440 I mean, it's like the man started the Freedom Caucus
00:33:54.860 and he had to be deposed from his own Freedom Caucus
00:33:58.900 because all he did was cave to Paul Ryan and Trey Gowdy.
00:34:04.280 And so it just goes on and on.
00:34:07.260 Why people think that we're going to get anything out of Jim Jordan is beyond me.
00:34:12.160 But thank you for the opportunity for me to sort of rant about it.
00:34:15.840 All performative.
00:34:16.500 No, it's all performative.
00:34:17.800 It's a joke.
00:34:20.480 Marine Corps, I know you want to give a hat tip as a Coast Guard man before you punch out.
00:34:26.240 So I left the Coast Guard as a storekeeper second class.
00:34:29.880 And there's only one Coast Guardsman who earned the Medal of Honor.
00:34:34.620 And that was Douglas Monroe.
00:34:36.900 Douglas Monroe saved 500 Marines
00:34:40.560 on the beaches of Guadalcanal.
00:34:43.360 He dropped them off at the beach
00:34:44.920 and then he was in charge of the six landing crafts.
00:34:48.100 And by orders and by procedure,
00:34:50.400 once you put the Marines on the beach,
00:34:51.960 you turn around and you go back to the ship.
00:34:54.860 But Monroe saw that they were pinned down by crossfire.
00:34:58.980 The Japanese were doing a crossfire
00:35:01.120 with their machine guns.
00:35:02.960 Monroe ordered the landing crafts to turn around
00:35:05.860 pick up the marines on the beach and then take them out of that situation and as they were
00:35:13.060 turning around back to the mothership he was hit and killed his last words steve were did they all
00:35:20.600 get off and then he gave up the ghost douglas monroe was a great coast guardsman and every
00:35:27.300 coast guardsman knows about that this heroism was in service of our great marines and happy
00:35:33.760 birthday marines uh where do people go what's your social media sir you can find me on all
00:35:40.340 the socials at reporter mccabe and my columns are at the south shore press.com sir thank you
00:35:49.280 brother appreciate you talk to you tomorrow david zier you have been riding shotgun with the
00:35:55.760 secretary of war pete haxeth uh today at the be your last night in the beginning of the day it
00:36:00.560 looked a little grim it turned out to be a great victory your thoughts are well they're not done
00:36:07.000 with him yet and as uh jeffrey said and the democrats we're going to run hegseth out of town
00:36:12.440 i hope there's the political will uh to come to his defense um it's going to be a rough couple
00:36:19.280 of years here and uh hang on hang on hang on hang on hang on repeat repeat for this audience
00:36:25.120 what Hakeem Jeffries said about Pete Hegseth?
00:36:29.060 Yeah, House Democrats led by Jeffries,
00:36:31.720 they said, run Pete Hegseth out of town, quote, unquote.
00:36:36.620 I'm not sure which member said that,
00:36:38.400 but that's what they're going to do
00:36:39.960 and that's what they're going to try to do here
00:36:41.640 with everybody in the Trump camp.
00:36:44.900 And, you know, I just wonder,
00:36:46.360 is like the IRGC watching today
00:36:48.700 and, you know, it's only going to take a slip up or two
00:36:51.640 or something bad to happen near the Strait of Hormuz or a commercial ship getting sunk or
00:36:57.900 something that will really be a black eye for Hegseth and Trump once again accelerating this
00:37:04.380 process. We still have a month and a half to go before the Democrats take over. This resolution
00:37:09.640 can be brought back and voted on with a simple majority at the right time to get back front and
00:37:15.420 center in the house. Um, so you know, I think we all got to buckle up. You said, you said the next
00:37:20.600 two years are going to be, uh, quite tough. What do you mean by that? Uh, well, I, I think the,
00:37:28.080 the writing's on the wall. Um, the Democrats, the Republicans aren't that strong. Um, Trump is one
00:37:34.340 man. Um, Hegseth is one man. Um, you know, I, I, I think that there's a lot of people out with
00:37:41.220 knives out for Pete Hegseth on the Republican side and within the Pentagon. And he's taken
00:37:47.800 bold actions. He's reformed. He's reshaped. But this is going to be tough. This is going to be
00:37:53.360 really tough. I'm worried. And I just can't say enough about what Pete Hegseth has accomplished
00:37:58.820 for our country. So. David Zier, where do people get your content? Where do they go for social
00:38:04.580 media, sir. At Dave Zier on X and David Zier on all the other socials. David Bravo Zulu. And I know
00:38:14.640 I had a chance to spend some time with Pete today and he was highly complimentary of your coverage
00:38:21.300 and going out of the way and doing what you do. So it's greatly appreciated over the Department
00:38:25.460 of War and by all the uniformed services and on the Marines 250th commemoration of their birthday.
00:38:30.980 Thank you so much.
00:38:31.740 I appreciate you, David.
00:38:33.400 That's really nice.
00:38:34.380 Thank you, Steve.
00:38:36.440 Zier and McCabe, they go that extra mile.
00:38:39.520 These guys are known for, hey, if you need something, it gets done.
00:38:43.140 So Birch Gold, I want to thank our sponsor.
00:38:47.620 Now more than ever, it's turbulent.
00:38:49.520 It's just not about Jensen Wong.
00:38:53.240 And is Jensen Wong, has he got a mistress?
00:38:55.640 He's got two mistresses, got 10 mistresses.
00:38:57.840 Are they all CCP honeypots or is he, in fact, a Chinese Communist Party agent of influence, as we have said here in the war room on many, many occasions?
00:39:10.160 That company is what's the future of that company with or without him under this onslaught anthropic massive at largest IPO in history getting underway a little shaky now more than ever.
00:39:23.300 I think you need to talk to Philip Patrick.
00:39:24.840 Philip was going to be 100 tonight, but because of all this chaos,
00:39:29.660 or I guess getting order out of chaos in this impeachment process,
00:39:32.800 we asked Philip, let's do it tomorrow.
00:39:34.660 Philip Patrick and his team, take the phone out.
00:39:36.680 Easiest way to do it and talk to him.
00:39:39.240 Don't listen to me.
00:39:41.380 Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N, 9-8-9-8-9-8.

00:39:55.120 that they want to have sophisticated and smart customers,
00:40:01.080 people that really understand pattern recognition
00:40:03.320 when it comes to gold.
00:40:05.560 Gold is a hedge.
00:40:07.640 Fiat currencies, all of it.
00:40:09.500 So check it out today with Birch Gold and Phil Patrick and the team.
00:40:12.480 They make a huge commitment to make sure they spend as much time with you
00:40:15.120 as you possibly need.
00:40:17.140 Okay, it's $251 for the beloved Marine Corps.
00:40:20.140 It's 51 for a very special event that also tied to, I guess, to the Navy's.
00:40:29.220 The Marine Corps is the amphibious army, the United States Navy.
00:40:31.940 I know sometimes they say, well, I don't know about that, but they are.
00:40:35.020 Just like the Navy SEALs are the commandos of the United States Navy.
00:40:39.060 Let's go ahead.
00:40:39.680 We always tell the Marines.
00:40:41.740 Well, anyway, we love the Marines and we love the SEALs.
00:40:45.500 Let's go ahead.
00:40:45.980 This was not a wartime endeavor, but it was very chilling for those who remember it.
00:40:52.280 Let's go and play the news break.
00:40:53.960 A freighter carrying a crew of 29 disappeared on Lake Superior during a severe storm last night.
00:40:58.720 And so far, no survivors have been found.
00:41:01.200 The freighter, the Edmund Fitzgerald, was transporting iron ore when it ran into high winds and 25-foot waves.
00:41:07.780 Rebecca Bell has the story.
00:41:10.120 In the area where the Fitzgerald went down, a sister ship joined the search.
00:41:14.040 But so far, all that was found was an oil slick, life jackets, and an empty lifeboat.
00:41:19.500 There was no sign of the 29 men aboard.
00:41:22.520 Officials say the freighter was finding gale winds and 25-foot waves.
00:41:26.800 The Fitzgerald left the Burlington Northern Docks here at Superior, Wisconsin, Sunday afternoon
00:41:31.740 with a cargo of more than 26,000 tons of taconite ore pellets.
00:41:36.640 She was bound for Detroit.
00:41:38.420 The huge freighter was last heard from shortly after 7 o'clock last night
00:41:42.200 when one of its officers radioed a nearby steamer to say the Fitzgerald was taking on water
00:41:47.000 and had lost two hatch covers.
00:41:49.380 Shortly after that, the freighter disappeared.
00:41:52.120 Well, it's purely speculation, but with a following sea like that,
00:41:57.740 you would consider the possibility of the ship broaching to and possibly capsizing
00:42:03.380 or else just breaking in half and splitting apart.
00:42:07.640 Even though the Coast Guard now considers the Fitzgerald lost,
00:42:10.800 Officers continue to plot the area where debris was sited
00:42:13.540 in a search for possible survivors.
00:42:16.180 Officials, however, say it would be impossible to live more than four hours
00:42:19.960 in the 49-degree waters of Lake Superior.
00:42:24.580 Taconite ore pellets.
00:42:27.040 That's what these very tough men were taking out on the Great Lakes.
00:42:33.380 Let's go ahead and play.
00:42:34.000 It inspired Gordon Lightfoot, a Canadian musician,
00:42:37.300 In fact, a legendary Canadian musician to write the famous song about.
00:42:40.860 Let's go ahead and hear that.
00:43:07.300 said never gives up
00:43:09.260 pretty when the skies of
00:43:11.100 November turn blue red
00:43:13.000 With a load of iron ore
00:43:17.240 26,000 tons more
00:43:19.260 than the headman Fitzgerald
00:43:21.320 weighed empty
00:43:22.140 That big ship and true was
00:43:27.100 abundant it should when the gales
00:43:29.360 of November came early
00:43:31.220 The ship was
00:43:35.260 The pride of the American side 0.98
00:43:37.500 Coming back from some mill in Wisconsin 0.77
00:43:40.460 As the big freighters go
00:43:43.280 And was bigger than most
00:43:45.280 With a growing good captain well seasoned
00:43:48.220 Concluding some terms
00:43:50.940 With a couple of steel firms
00:43:52.720 When they left fully loaded for Cleveland
00:43:55.320 And later that night
00:43:58.340 When the ship's bell rang
00:43:59.900 Could it be the north
00:44:01.620 When they'd been failing?
00:44:05.260 The wind and the wires made a tattletale sound
00:44:17.520 And a wave broke over the railing
00:44:20.680 And every man knew as the captain did
00:44:26.320 T'was the witch of November come stealing
00:44:29.400 The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait
00:44:35.920 When the gills of November came slashing
00:44:39.060 That afternoon came, it was freezing rain
00:44:42.840 In the face of a hurricane, a west wind
00:44:59.400 When supper time came, the old cook came on deck, saying, fellas, it's too rough to feed you.
00:45:11.280 At 7 p.m., a man hatched, we gave him, he said, fellas, it's been good to know you.
00:45:20.560 The captain weren't in, he had water coming in, and the big ship and crew was in peril.
00:45:27.240 And later that night when his lights went to the same
00:45:31.660 In the record at front of his chariot
00:45:35.200 Does anyone know where the love of God goes
00:45:58.320 When the waves turn their minutes to hours
00:46:01.220 The searchers all say they've made whitefish pay
00:46:07.280 If they'd put 15 more miles behind her
00:46:10.540 They might have split up or they might have kept size 0.97
00:46:16.800 They may have broke deep and took water
00:46:19.540 And all that remains is the faces and the names
00:46:24.000 Of the wives and the sons and the daughters
00:46:26.740 The lake here on Rose Superior sings
00:46:46.380 In the rims of the rice water mansion
00:46:49.420 Oh, Michigan steams like a young man's dreams
00:46:53.920 The islands and desert for sportsmen
00:46:57.180 Farther below Lake Ontario
00:47:02.320 Takes in what Lake Erie can centre
00:47:06.060 But the iron boats go as the Mariners of
00:47:10.300 The gales of November remembered
00:47:23.920 In a musty old hall in Detroit
00:47:51.120 They breed in the Maritime Sailors Cathedral 0.92
00:47:55.000 The church bell chime to a pain
00:48:00.020 Twenty-nine times Corridor Channel
00:48:02.340 And the Edmund Fitzgerald
00:48:04.920 The legend lives on run
00:48:09.100 The chip-on-down
00:48:10.600 Of the big lake they call Kichigurri
00:48:13.500 Superior, they say, never gives up
00:48:19.140 Did when the gills of November
00:48:21.720 Covered in
00:48:49.140 The Inman's Fitzgerald's crew in the United States Marine Corps in one hour also throwing Pete Hexeth in the Secretary of War.
00:49:07.060 Wow. What an hour from the House beat back an effort by Representative Thomas Massey to impeach and battle Defense Secretary Pete Hexeth.
00:49:19.020 voting 2-11 to 2-4 to effectively scuttle the push. GOP leadership galvanized enough of their
00:49:25.120 conference to vote amid an aggressive PR campaign by Hegseth for his job. Massey was the only
00:49:31.480 Republican to oppose referring the articles to committee, a step to effectively kill them.
00:49:38.420 President Donald Trump and other administration officials have staunchly defended Hegseth.
00:49:44.000 The White House dismissed Massey's effort as spectacle
00:49:47.040 in a statement of administrative policy on Tuesday.
00:49:52.040 Okay, we'll have more on that tomorrow.
00:49:53.420 And, of course, the fights, all the fights before us.
00:49:57.180 Jim Caviezel is scheduled to try to join us tomorrow on Veterans Day.
00:50:00.460 Patrick K. O'Donnell.
00:50:02.040 We'll have more about the Department of War.
00:50:03.520 Of course, we'll have so much about veterans, our troops,
00:50:07.520 and Armistice Day, what it all means, what it all stands for.
00:50:11.520 I want to thank the entire crew tonight
00:50:14.300 for putting this together
00:50:15.220 kind of a running gun
00:50:16.860 as I was out for most of the afternoon
00:50:18.520 but now we're back
00:50:19.860 and we're in the saddle
00:50:21.140 we're going to leave
00:50:22.660 with a very special song
00:50:24.240 that has inspired so many young men and women
00:50:28.300 you heard Wade Miller
00:50:29.480 just one individual
00:50:31.940 saw 9-11
00:50:32.940 thought he'd do something with his country
00:50:34.860 the most important thing of what Wade said
00:50:36.980 the entire time
00:50:38.780 and it was a great interview
00:50:40.280 He just, you know, really talked from his heart about his service in the Marine Corps was that he would not trade those years for anything.
00:50:48.020 And I think everybody that served in the military would say the exact same thing.
00:50:51.880 They were the best years of your life as the as the movie that says after World War, after World War Two.
00:50:58.560 OK. United States Marine Corps.
00:51:01.820 We'll see you tomorrow morning at 10 a.m. Eastern Standard Time.
00:51:10.280 on the sea, first to fight for right and freedom, and to keep our father clean, we are bound
00:51:20.280 to claim the title of United States Marine.
00:51:27.280 Our plans have worked through every week, from the blue setting sun.
00:51:34.560 We have fought in every climate place, where we could take our guns.
00:51:41.660 In the snow of far off, northern France, and inside the dropping seas.
00:51:49.320 You will always find us on the top, the United States Marines.
00:51:55.660 There is help to you and to our Lord
00:52:00.500 Which we are proud to serve
00:52:03.720 In many a strength we fought for life
00:52:07.800 And never lost our nerve
00:52:11.080 In the army and the name
00:52:14.840 Ever long on heaven's seas
00:52:18.520 They will find the streets of God and life
