this is what you're fighting for i mean every day you're out there what they're doing is blowing
00:00:18.000
people off if you continue to look the other way and shut up then the oppressors the
00:00:24.960
authoritarians get total control and total power because this is just like in arizona this is just
00:00:30.800
like in georgia it's another element that backs them into a quarter and shows their lies and
00:00:35.520
misrepresentations is why this audience is going to have to get engaged as we've told you this is
00:00:39.840
the fight all this nonsense all this spin they can't handle the truth war room battleground here's
00:00:46.880
your host stephen k bannon right this moment as a vote is expected tonight on the debt ceiling
00:00:53.600
compromise bill cnn's manu raju joins us now live from capitol hill mountain tell us what's going on
00:00:58.880
that's right this is the rule that must be approved by the house before the full house can consider the
00:01:04.400
bill to suspend the debt limit until january 2025 typically these rules were essentially sets of
00:01:09.520
parameters for the floor debate typically they're approved along straight party lines no members
00:01:14.400
from majority party vote against it no members of minority party vote for it this is different i mean
00:01:19.760
amid concerns from the far right of the house republican conference speaker mccarthy is struggling
00:01:24.560
to get the votes on the just republican votes alone in order to get this rule approved if all members
00:01:30.080
are voting he needs 218 votes to get this approved right now he has 187 votes there are 29 republican
00:01:38.560
votes voting against it you he can only afford to lose no more than four republican votes in order
00:01:44.960
for any bill to be approved along straight party lines at the moment democrats themselves are voting
00:01:51.040
against it that's what the direction from the democratic leadership was to the rank and file to
00:01:55.840
vote against it then but there are 42 democrats who have not yet voted they're holding out their votes
00:02:02.320
and they're expected ultimately to give the speaker the votes in order to get this rule approved but
00:02:07.760
it's very clear the democrats are trying to make the speaker sweat try to extract potentially some
00:02:12.960
concessions we'll see if any deals are cut on the house floor but at the moment right now the
00:02:18.640
leadership does not on the republican side does not have the votes to get this rule approved now our
00:02:23.360
our colleagues within the chamber say the speaker is in the chamber he looks pretty relaxed he does
00:02:28.080
expect this rule ultimately to get approved but at the moment right now it's going very slowly 188
00:02:33.680
votes in the affirmative that's not enough 188 republican votes 29 republican votes against it and
00:02:39.920
counting five republicans have not voted yet we'll see what ultimately happens here jake but if and
00:02:44.560
when this rule is approved that will be the first step before the full house votes tonight and to
00:02:51.200
suspend the debt limit past this bill that it was negotiated with the white house send it over to
00:02:55.360
the senate after weeks and weeks of negotiation months of standoff between the two sides but at the
00:03:00.320
moment drama playing on the floor as the speaker trying to get this first part procedural vote approved
00:03:05.600
and right now it doesn't have the votes and mana we're hearing uh that some uh members of the
00:03:10.080
conservative house freedom caucus are threatening uh to use the what's called a motion to vacate
00:03:16.080
uh basically it just it allows uh just one member to to raise this as a move to oust mccarthy as
00:03:23.200
speaker they're threatening to use this uh next week is is that real that is really an uncertain
00:03:29.760
question jake because as you mentioned just one member can essentially call for this vote and they
00:03:34.240
can't stop this vote from happening and if the speaker is unable to limit defections to more than
00:03:39.840
no more than four if there are four or more who want him out as speaker he's out as speaker assuming
00:03:44.000
all democrats vote to remove him as well the conservatives have not made a final decision
00:03:49.360
about whether to go that route but some of them are very angry about whether about the deal that was
00:03:53.680
cut they believe it didn't go far enough and are weighing whether or not to go that far that is
00:03:58.240
a discussion for another day the question is whether the temperature will cool down a bit if this bill
00:04:03.360
passes and the big question tonight is how many republicans ultimately vote for the underlying
00:04:08.960
bill to raise the debt ceiling the speaker and his team want to have a majority of house republicans
00:04:13.840
to get behind it the speaker today told me he is confident he will get a majority of republicans
00:04:18.560
voting for it some of the folks on the far right the congressman matt gates have warned that if it's
00:04:22.960
under a majority of house republicans that's what could trigger the efforts to try to oust him from
00:04:27.360
the speakership so that vote that threshold is key and the question will be if this will after this
00:04:32.800
passes if the the calculation changes on the far right of the conference but at the moment right
00:04:38.240
now the speaker doesn't seem to concern let's have it it's uh it's uh wednesday 31 may year of our lord
00:04:44.480
2023 that went on to get through the uh to the rules i asked uh congressman uh tim birchette um
00:04:52.800
birchette to come on uh congressman you've been um and this is about leadership that was a humiliation
00:05:00.720
you don't see that with speakers of the house you don't see nancy pelosi doing that you don't see
00:05:04.560
these speakers that know how to run things that's a humiliation you had to turn the control of the
00:05:10.800
floor of the house over to hakeem jeffries and they had to cut a deal i don't know it was 40 some people
00:05:16.800
maybe more it this is humiliation on the rules and i'm gonna get to the to the to some of the comments
00:05:21.920
you've made and about leisha what is going on here i mean this is this is not our audience their heads
00:05:28.080
are blown up this is not what people fought for this is not what people work for this is not what
00:05:32.720
they went around the country and on these neighborhoods and knocked on doors and left
00:05:36.560
hangers and gave all the small donor uh donation so can you tell us what's going on with the leadership
00:05:43.360
to be humiliated on national tv and have everybody basically that's a republican humiliated by this sir
00:05:49.200
yeah i think what happened was they cut a deal they um i suspect it's going to have something
00:05:55.200
to do with appropriations they were upset about uh their percentage that they were getting and and so
00:06:01.680
we we caved is what we did i you know i i and and we've got some real problems mr bannon be honest
00:06:10.000
with you um we have uh in my opinion you know members getting threatened you know that's bush league
00:06:17.760
somebody told me they were going to threaten me i'd probably walk them outside and if it was a man i'd
00:06:22.720
beat their ass excuse my language but that's what i'd do because i'm not going to put up with that crap
00:06:27.520
that's illegal that's it's not the 80s anymore it's not that bush league gang that used to run this
00:06:34.960
country it's a new bunch and we should know better and we don't and you've got members
00:06:41.760
good conservative members you know that's how they get beat down and they don't get it i've been doing
00:06:46.960
this game my whole life i mean i've been in office over almost 28 years now or 29 but uh it's just
00:06:55.360
it's just a lack of respect for others it's an arrogance and um frankly we're taking the american
00:07:07.920
tell me about that when you say threaten i understand the whip uh operation is pretty
00:07:12.480
intense and you've had some shocking names come forward people that have been known to be aligned
00:07:18.640
with uh leadership coming out and saying hey my constituents i can't do this my constituents are
00:07:23.920
are outraged by this people are not stupid you and others were able to walk them through this deal
00:07:30.480
and it said hey we weren't that happy about what we just passed but we're going to live with it because
00:07:35.840
i had a cap and it was only one year but we weren't thrilled about the rest we didn't think i made
00:07:39.680
enough cuts i know you were very vocal about that but then this thing came back and you guys shredded
00:07:44.720
it and and they think people are stupid tell us about these threats you mean actually the whip
00:07:48.400
operation has gotten to that level their nervousness i don't think it's the whip uh you have some
00:07:54.080
leadership um people um committee chairs and they send word through their minions and then there was one
00:08:00.800
i overheard a committee chairman get pretty uh aggressive towards a member you know saying
00:08:06.400
things a freshman or somebody hadn't been here very long i guess telling them you know your bills
00:08:11.280
aren't going to be able to go through that kind of garbage um you know i i'm just not going to play
00:08:17.360
that game and it's stupid as you well know everybody's got one of these um and everybody
00:08:23.120
is recording and it's and something like that all it takes is one thing like that and you've got a real
00:08:28.480
problem you got a real problem and i'm going to address when i get one-on-one with the speaker i'm
00:08:34.320
going to address that with him because that that ticks me off and that's there's no place for it we all know
00:08:39.920
it's out there it's a big boys game i get it but some folks it's like my daddy said when he was in
00:08:46.160
the pacific he said some of them guys had come off the front line on pelalu and they were had shell
00:08:51.120
shock and he said there's they probably shouldn't have been there and we shouldn't allow some of these
00:08:56.160
younger members of congress to be to get get in these positions they're conservatives they're they
00:09:02.800
think like you and i do maybe they don't have the reinforcement that you and i do um and and they
00:09:09.200
want to do the right thing but they just get put down and that's kind of thing that threaten they
00:09:13.520
you know and you and i both know i used to say when i was mayor of knox county you know there's
00:09:18.080
going to be another wreck on on the interstate tomorrow and what i meant by that was there's
00:09:22.000
going to be something else that happens that's going to you know it's they're going to need your
00:09:26.240
vote they're going to need you for something there's going to something that's going to knock
00:09:29.760
the the the debt ceiling talk won't be the talk in a week if this thing passes over the weekend
00:09:36.400
so you know i just i wish they wouldn't do that kind of garbage and it and it ticks me off
00:09:42.720
it's just no need for it but but you said and i think it's about leadership they've given a four
00:09:49.520
year with with no cap this shows you how much they literally think of their supposed cuts because there's
00:09:56.800
one penny there they would give a cap and feel comfortable with no cap in two years you get four
00:10:01.200
or five or six trillion dollars you've caught you've i think you've said leadership's given
00:10:05.920
given a four-year run or a couple of your run for the democrats just to get a free pass here
00:10:11.200
and and and and and use the debt ceiling you know with no debt ceiling use unlimited amount of spending
00:10:17.760
here and particularly as the economy slows down we're going to have smaller tax revenues
00:10:23.440
because this is not going to go away i mean this one's going to stick i think this may be the most
00:10:27.040
important vote of the congress what are your thoughts on that i agree uh by 20 33 the national
00:10:33.840
debt would be 45.2 trillion um rather than 46.7 trillion i mean they saved us uh you know the
00:10:42.400
amount they saved is i mean a trillion but it's still you know we the original plan would have saved
00:10:48.400
so much more would have put us in much better space um 78 000 new people can be added to food stamps
00:10:55.840
each month under this program it's just mr bannon i mean it's gonna it's got a lot of holes in it you
00:11:02.400
know the irs deal they were gonna kick all these irs agents out and and that's that's not happening um
00:11:09.520
just go down the list i just feel like we um you know i said um in conference um when when they were
00:11:17.680
debating this you know you get one we all get one minute to say our our our piece at the end it's
00:11:24.640
usual people get up and do it and i got up i never do it i just because it's just you just what
00:11:29.840
you know the bible talks about casting your pearls among the swine i guess but hey i got up and i said
00:11:36.160
you know i let the democrats lie to us for four years and now i'm going to give you one year to lie to me
00:11:42.400
and um i guess i was prophetic in what i said because what we ended up with is not what you know all
00:11:50.880
the freedom caucus guys folded over and voted for um you know there was just four uh four republicans
00:11:56.800
that voted against the dadgum thing in the first place me um buck um andy biggs and um and my buddy
00:12:04.400
matt gates it's just you know and and basically we tried to warn them but you know and everybody thought
00:12:11.040
well we're going to cut this deal and you know how you know how these deals work i raised the speed limit
00:12:16.240
in tennessee i asked for 85 but i knew i could take 70 and uh and and i got 70. everything that they asked
00:12:25.840
for they said they had to have and i kept saying guys this is not the way you negotiate ask for a
00:12:31.760
whole lot more get it in writing and then if you got to roll back from that and we didn't and and you
00:12:39.360
know i wasn't involved in any of those negotiations obviously and um and they treated me like a dog
00:12:45.280
anyway they but but but it but yeah but isn't that the problem i mean look at the people we have in
00:12:51.040
leadership if they this today was a humiliation they need it and hakeem jeffries is no centrist
00:12:56.960
hakeem jeffries is a radical they had to depend upon the radical democrats the left is bad the problem we
00:13:03.840
got is not enough congressman birchett's in leadership and the people we have in leadership
00:13:08.880
will roll over how is this tonight if there's 50 55 60 70 republicans how can they possibly pass
00:13:16.720
a bill that will set the direction economically of the country for maybe the next decade
00:13:21.920
right and put on four or five trillion dollars of new debt on on our balance sheet how how if they can't
00:13:28.640
even get it to the floor without part they're in coalition not with you they're not in coalition
00:13:33.840
with the house freedom caucus or the 20 that stood up or any of the conservatives they're in
00:13:37.760
coalition with a radical democrat that they turned the floor of the house over today to get their bill
00:13:43.280
a democrat bill to to the floor to vote tonight that over the 10 40 50 60 70 democrat votes of the
00:13:50.880
most radical democrat party in the nation's history tell me how that worked i think it uh you know i
00:13:56.880
learned a couple of things in my six years of undergraduate studies at the university of tennessee
00:14:01.680
and one of those things i had a very practical um psychology teacher and i i won't mention her
00:14:07.280
name because she's still out there i don't want anybody to start following her because i think she's
00:14:11.120
she's still preaching her her brand of marxism but um she did tell me something the thing called
00:14:18.080
group think what happens is is people surround themselves with people they're yes men or yes women
00:14:25.440
as the case may be and um and they may be smarter than you but they never approach that they never
00:14:32.400
push you they never question anything you say and so you just go down this this path of just we're
00:14:39.040
gonna win we're gonna win we're gonna win we're gonna win we're gonna win and um yeah you might get
00:14:43.680
a w but you didn't win anything and that's exactly what we i think what we're falling into i
00:14:51.680
the negotiating team i i told the whips i said you know you should have had somebody in there
00:14:57.760
like a dan bishop or somebody in there in the negotiated in the negotiations or at least reporting
00:15:04.160
back to them and letting them know what was going on so they could be a part of it and it's just human
00:15:10.000
nature if you're a part of something you can explain it you can you might be able to articulate your
00:15:15.840
views a little more we might add some conservatives um matt gates somebody like that i mean their heads
00:15:22.480
would explode can you imagine if they if gates rolled up at the white house and uh negotiating
00:15:27.680
with biden but um i think that'd be pretty cool actually but but the truth is is that they're not
00:15:34.080
gonna do that and um you know i was disappointed last night we had the meeting and it was it must have
00:15:41.040
been i think it was 45 minutes of them telling how great of negotiators they were you know i don't
00:15:47.200
care how great a negotiator they are obviously they weren't because we didn't get much but it just to me
00:15:53.600
it just it's just infuriating but i i don't want to be the i told you so in the crowd you know andy biggs
00:16:00.320
and i were talking about that today and i i said i don't want to be that guy but the truth is we should
00:16:05.920
have known better what about the folks in in in your district in east tennessee uh the particularly
00:16:13.680
the fact of how this is being sold when you and others have gone through this bill and shredded it
00:16:19.520
about the lies and misrepresentations particularly the fact of all the savings two trillion dollars
00:16:23.760
1.5 trillion dollars and they will not put a cap on this because they know they have no there's no
00:16:29.920
savings whatsoever in this the folks in east tennessee do they feel like they're being talked down to
00:16:34.800
by this group do they feel they're being treated like idiots sir they do and um i'd have to censor
00:16:41.920
what most of them have sent me today i mean people had a fireman buddy of mine um his name's kevin
00:16:48.320
fattus he sent me a text today and said said keep their feet to the fire you know i mean i have people
00:16:54.800
just all over my buddy ken bodey sent me a message you know these people that work at all ends of the
00:16:59.840
spectrum okay from the boardroom to you know everywhere and it's all the same thing hold
00:17:07.920
hold the line on spending hold they understand it you know in east tennessee we have a balanced budget
00:17:12.800
we're a balanced budget state when i was mayor of knox county we paid down tens of millions of dollars
00:17:19.760
we paid cash for schools we did everything we said we were going to do which is kind of unusual
00:17:25.040
our bond rating went through the roof and um you know and we kept our word and that's what they
00:17:30.720
expect and they don't they don't like this stuff they watch it on the news and they call me and
00:17:36.080
say are you watching this right now i said i always usually tell them hell no i said i just caught the
00:17:40.880
live version what i want to watch the television television television version for and it's it's the
00:17:46.400
same thing over and over mr bannon we manage our money back here why can't they why do you keep giving in
00:17:53.920
to the left wing extremes and it's just it just you know it's very frustrating to me and i know the
00:18:00.640
people back home are just about to give up and that's exactly what the left wants because we keep
00:18:06.880
capitulating to this bunch of marxist up here the american voters you know they said 20 million
00:18:14.080
so-called evangelical christians didn't go to the polls last time and vote and that's my people that's
00:18:19.680
my crowd i consider myself in that group and um and you know we lost it from president down to to
00:18:28.560
the courthouse and that's and we'll continue to do that because people are demoralized because we come
00:18:34.480
up here and do the same dadgum thing we get the majority we had five or six good months and now
00:18:41.360
they feel like they've been betrayed uh we're gonna go to uh congressman jim banks in a moment
00:18:49.200
from indiana's running for the senate about his no vote but before you leave you uh congressman
00:18:54.240
burchett where do we go from here what do you tell your folks back these hard-working folks
00:18:58.960
back in east tennessee these patriots the the the salt of the earth this country's built upon
00:19:04.800
where do we go from here after this vote tonight if it's 40 50 60 republican and i mean good folks
00:19:11.920

00:19:16.800
leadership if you've got the burchets and the banks and and and the normans if you've got these
00:19:22.640

00:19:33.440
of my buddy uh mr norman or or banks they're both exceptional people and they're they're they're great
00:19:40.480
at what they do i i think i'd tell people just let's turn it back into some just being ticked off
00:19:46.880
and get to the polls and get to the polls let's run these people out they keep lying to us and let's
00:19:54.720
let's start moving them up moving up the good folks because that's what we got to do we cannot give in
00:19:59.920
we cannot give in and you know we got the chamber of commerce endorses this plan yeah that bunch
00:20:06.880
they endorsed a bunch of pelosi's cron democrat cronies i mean some hard wide hardline lefters
00:20:12.560
if i was in a chamber of commerce i would i would cancel my membership right now i would cancel it
00:20:18.880
right now the national chamber of commerce is a disaster and they need to be shut down and
00:20:25.040
reorganized and just along those lines and and i wouldn't i'd tell people don't worry about the
00:20:30.400
rating agencies you just worry about the polls on election day and we'll keep putting you in
00:20:34.720

00:21:49.520
audience down there the folks down there would love to see you on so thank you sir appreciate it
00:21:52.880
your dad gum right see you brother bye-bye thanks jim banks naval officer uh member of congress
00:22:01.200
conservative uh from indiana runner for the senate jim banks did you ever think you see something like
00:22:08.560
this that we're making now the national debt a national security issue you're a patriot to focus
00:22:13.040
on that this is outrageous i mean i don't even know how you describe it our phones have been
00:22:17.440
blowing up people our people have been calling they are outright this the debt is now this bill bill
00:22:22.960
makes it a national security threat sir that's right steve you think you think back to when i
00:22:28.400
first got elected uh the same time that you came into the white house back in 2017 the national debt
00:22:34.400
then was 22 trillion dollars and we were calling it a national security threat back then now it's 32
00:22:40.960
trillion dollars and what what's going to vote be voted off of the floor of the house tonight will
00:22:45.440
raise the debt limit another four trillion dollars up to 35 36 trillion that means that the interest on
00:22:52.640
the debt is more than we we spend uh to fund the entire pentagon the department of defense just to to
00:23:00.000
keep our country safe and secure so without a doubt this is a national security issue i can't i i still
00:23:06.880
can't believe it steve that anybody is celebrating this that any republican or democrat would clap on
00:23:13.360
the floor for a bill like this to raise the debt limit that's never something that anyone should be
00:23:19.200
excited about if we're going to raise the debt limit then let's at the same time make reforms and
00:23:24.960
spending cuts that will bring down the national debt not allow it to grow another four trillion dollars
00:23:31.200
this is an easy vote for me i've had a lot of hard votes since i've been in congress this isn't one of
00:23:36.400
them i i i have no doubts about it i'm going to go down to the floor tonight and cast a no vote uh against
00:23:43.120
something that i think is a really bad deal for our country look the hoosiers are known as practical
00:23:50.880
kind-hearted tough folks kind of the heart of this country what are your you're you're you represent a
00:23:57.280
great district you're going to run statewide for senate what what are the hoosiers say about this
00:24:01.200
what do these common sense folks say about when you talk to them about this bill yeah my my phones
00:24:06.240
are ringing off the hooks have been the last couple of days um a lot of republicans scratching their
00:24:11.360
heads about this deal and and a lot of hoosiers who oppose it for the reasons that i just laid out
00:24:17.520
so we we went from a few weeks ago we passed the the limit save grow act that would have cut five
00:24:23.920
trillion dollars in spending and raised the debt limit by 1.5 trillion so i'm not the smartest man
00:24:29.680
in washington steve but you do the math and that's a good deal that sends us down a path to bring down
00:24:35.520
the debt to cut spending this deal does about the opposite it raises the debt limit by 4 trillion but
00:24:42.560
only makes arguably by some estimates uh at best 1.5 trillion dollars in spending cuts over the next 10
00:24:50.960
years so that's not to me that's not a good deal that doesn't do what we said we were going to do
00:24:56.960
you know a year ago from right now uh in in uh june of of um of 2022 republicans were talking about a
00:25:05.920
red wave election we we thought at that point we were going to win a 20 30 40 seat republican majority
00:25:13.280
we ended up with only a five seat majority and a lot of a lot of people were questioning what why did
00:25:17.680
that happen how did we fall so short and my my uh my response to that steve is that we we didn't we
00:25:23.760
didn't have a red wave because the voters didn't trust us they know that when they give us the majority
00:25:29.360
we usually fall short and don't follow through on the commitments and promises that we made so we had
00:25:35.040
an opportunity we won a five seat majority and i think this opportunity still stares us in the face if
00:25:41.040
we are if we are strong if we follow through on our promises we can grow that five seat majority
00:25:48.000
into a much more sizable majority in the 24 election win back the white house win the senate majority
00:25:54.320
as well and then we can do even more uh to to restore and save our country so i think in this
00:26:00.240
case though we're falling short on that i hope that we can recover quickly and and get back to following
00:26:06.080
through on the things that we said we were going to do on the campaign trail last year uh congressman

00:32:35.360
who are constantly uh getting to me either during the show or after the show uh different than our
00:32:39.440
production team but people either follow the show or people that uh send the stuff on a regular basis
00:32:45.520
um wanted to jim banks hit a very raw nerve jim banks a good man uh naval officer uh
00:32:56.320
came in with trump in 16 as a freshman congressman now running for the u.s senate
00:33:01.920
kind of cleared the field there the candidates he said he said something that was um very profound
00:33:09.680
this is about 22 and you remember you know we're gonna win these many seats we're gonna do this
00:33:13.680
the american people have a sense of um of um common sense and let me set aside the cheating and
00:33:22.400
everything like that of course we know that goes on non-stop and we have not solved that problem yet
00:33:26.400
long way from it but they have seen this act before and don't totally trust
00:33:36.320
the republican party to be conservative to mega hasn't really taken it over it's one of the
00:33:40.560
reasons we push the precinct strategy so hard they don't trust us and if it hadn't have been
00:33:49.600
for the first week of now think about this right talk to us morning think about what happened since
00:33:54.720
election night in 22 you had the the lame duck where the same characters pulled off
00:34:01.520
the omnibus omnibus is so outrageous they jammed in a changes to the electoral count act of 1887
00:34:10.800
which i happen to think made it you know unconstitutional but that'll have to be worked
00:34:16.080
out in the courts at the at the appropriate time but look at that that omnibus was to take
00:34:21.520
the power away from you from your hands so you couldn't get all over your
00:34:24.400
your representative to take go back and rethink appropriations and cut it out right there
00:34:32.240
then we had the first week of january and that's where the 20 and the magnificent six
00:34:38.400
stood their ground and got these fundamental powerful changes in that have uh really set
00:34:50.160
and then you see and they saw the fox news and newton all these people you know with uh uh with
00:34:57.360
leadership it's gonna be chaos it's gonna be anarchy it's gonna be
00:35:01.600
i'll show you chaos i'll show you anarchy we saw it today in the house of representatives
00:35:09.920
you wanted to they lecture you and they're gonna election the freedom caucus
00:35:14.240
and they're gonna lecture maga oh you all you you extremists you you maga ultra maga extremists you
00:35:21.680
you're chaos you're anarchy did i hear that from all the talking heads of fox news i hear that murdoch
00:35:27.600
accident down there every second of every day during the first week of january it's gonna be
00:35:33.200
chaos it's gonna be anarchy this is terrible i'll show you chaos and anarchy it's what happened on the
00:35:41.040
floor today when kevin mccarthy had to go over and kiss the ass of hakeem jeffries to give him 40 or
00:35:48.240
some votes to even get it to the house tonight and he's sitting here right now already promises
00:35:55.280
i can get you 150 but you have to bring the rest think about this for a second this is not some
00:36:00.160
name in some post office this is setting the financial direction of the country for a decade
00:36:09.280
because right now we're on the verge of giving them unlimited ability to bury us
00:36:16.160
and as the tax revenues drop as the economy slows
00:36:22.400
and any other untoward situation have you going to blow through the four or five trillion the four
00:36:27.680
trillion and then they lie about that well how do you know four train you make up four train because
00:36:31.360
anna helena luna a young woman freshman from florida air force vet took hey she says no i don't trust
00:36:39.360
these ass let me get my phone out and take it and take a and give a click so we got it you want to see
00:36:45.360
anarchy and you want to see chaos and you want to see humiliation and you don't think they're
00:36:53.600
laughing at the demoradical democrats yeah these guys let's go back out what were you preaching on
00:36:59.200
the hustings back in september october yeah we're gonna cut this we're gonna do this we're gonna
00:37:03.920
we're gonna be this we're gonna do all this american people saw most of you guys are total phonies
00:37:09.200
and they saw it today coalition government coalition with a bunch of radicals marxists
00:37:18.480
that are burying this nation with an illegitimate regime that's who leadership kevin mccarthy has
00:37:24.560
partnered with this and to see him humiliated humiliated on the floor of the house today
00:37:32.240
they have to turn over the house of representatives to hakeem jeffries ask yourself go back and look at
00:37:38.960
your check and pull your bank accounts out all that money they're coming to you they're hitting you with
00:37:43.920
a text message every 30 seconds rnc this that his leadership fund they're hitting you with a text
00:37:49.280
message they're sending you mail every day they up on your emails they're on your if you're online
00:37:55.120
they're up on your grill on that every second of every day gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme because you
00:38:01.440
give me we're for limited government and we're for fiscal responsibility in fact they call this
00:38:06.160
they call this joke a fiscal responsibility act and they gotta crawl on their belly today
00:38:17.600
do you think if hakeem jeffries was speaker of the house of representatives do you think
00:38:27.840
hakeem jeffries would ever get himself in a situation that he would have to crawl over to
00:38:33.760
kevin mccarthy and beg him to give him some votes to stop a humiliation on national tv and get a rules
00:38:41.600
vote even get it do you honestly think do you think these democrats whatever in your mind do you
00:38:47.360
think they would ever bring up something that would take 60 or 70 republicans to have to come
00:38:52.880
in and bail them out and beg them and bircher just told you the pressure the intensity that's why
00:38:58.160
anna felina luna that's what those people today if your congressman is on that list
00:39:04.480
of the nose call him right now we've been telling you call him and give him the what for call up and
00:39:08.560
give him an attaboy this took courage and particularly the non-freedom call you know the non
00:39:15.280
folks that we have here all the time on the war room there's some names that are pretty shocking
00:39:22.560
and trust me this whole thing over mccarthy gave him said go ahead do it he's got votes no he ain't
00:39:27.360
got the votes he's running around and they're threatening people and the pressure on these people is intense
00:39:32.560
and you see is that because this stops the financial debacle and decline of our country
00:39:44.960
is this something that you could go over in front of section 60 over in arlington and saying hey we're
00:39:51.200
we're doing this we're passing this for uh the memory of the honored dead of what they gave the
00:39:57.760
ultimate sacrifice for for children and grandchildren the future of this nation the best aspect of
00:40:03.920
america has always been from the working class to the middle class have always looked down range and
00:40:08.000
always thought the sacrifice we do today for future generations that what this is is that what this is
00:40:29.120
it shows you their contempt for you just remember tonight anybody that votes yes has contempt for you
00:40:37.360
it's two years now they're going to come back oh how can you be so harsh how can you say this
00:40:42.560
how can you're so over the tough and you're always so mean and nasty and always look at the
00:40:46.400
negative it's all apocalyptic everything's on fire look at it there's no cap to this whatsoever none
00:40:54.240
whatsoever two years anything can happen it could be four it could be five it could be six trillion
00:41:00.240
they don't care if they cared and if they believed in the cuts that they're lying to you
00:41:06.000
to your face and all we're going to save it in the appropriations that's all crap
00:41:11.280
you got a chance to vote now stand and deliver don't tell me what you're going to do tell me what you
00:41:15.440
are doing now if you're in a red district and you vote yes for this thing yes you should be
00:41:23.760
primaried and you should be turf out this is one that's not not a close call
00:41:28.160
all because they're taking the ability to put this into the national conversation
00:41:39.840
you know in yourself and and watching the show for the last couple of years
00:41:43.760
as we've gone through capital markets we've gone through macroeconomics and we've gone through the
00:41:47.360
interlinking of the economy to finance and how that plays into the geopolitical world system the
00:41:54.080
post-war international rules-based order that has really depended upon you uh for everything
00:42:02.960
at the same time crushing you and allowing our greatest enemy the chinese communist party with
00:42:09.040
its wingman the administrative state to grow in power that's how that worked out
00:42:16.480
but above all what they had to do was not to have this in the national conversation
00:42:20.640
they understand something this show why why is all the why are all the big media platforms trying
00:42:25.680
to shut us down why are they trying to put me in prison every time you turn around they don't
00:42:30.640
want you to have information that makes you smarter about the way this corrupt contemptible
00:42:38.800
system runs they hate that they hate that and they will do anything in their power to stop that because
00:42:52.240
they fear because they know they don't really have the consent of the governed they don't
00:42:58.160
because you do not consent to this i can tell you you look in a poll it's it's blowing up everybody
00:43:05.200
talks about it up on the hill your calls look at plena luna big old district down there in florida not one
00:43:11.520
call not one to her office they said to vote for this same with birch it's all over
00:43:18.720
they wanted to take it away from next year the what they offered them was a main train and a half
00:43:23.360
dollars for a year good lord train and a half dollars one year whatever came first and that
00:43:28.560
would put it right the railhead of the national political conversation that would start essentially
00:43:34.000
in may of next year the first part of the general election what people starting to focus
00:43:38.480
over the summer and then the lower information voters obviously in the run-up
00:43:42.800
right after uh labor day but they can't they can't have it in there they told me why they can't have
00:43:48.720
it in there they understand that that conversation at some point is going to talk about increases of the
00:43:54.960
taxes for the wealthy and the donors run the deal for these guys it's all donor driven
00:43:59.360
it's all donor driven the big corporations through the lobbyists right the high net worth individuals
00:44:08.000
the the the the super wealthy in this country the oligarch because that's what we've turned into
00:44:13.280
as an oligarchy and this is how you run an oligarchy if they had faith in you if they didn't hold you
00:44:21.280
in contempt they would hey there's one year deal and we'll we'll we'll let them see biting these guys
00:44:27.360
what they do we'll get cuts we'll get meaningful cuts but hey we'll raise it there this manufacturer
00:44:33.840
crisis janet yelling she mismanaged in the cash but no there's gonna be cash coming no no but we'll do
00:44:38.880
it don't want to do it but we'll do it but next year we would have a full and frank conversation during
00:44:45.600
the entire the entire the presidential election would revolve around this and you would be back in
00:44:51.360
power every step they take from the omnibus bill in december that took the gavel out of your hands
00:45:06.800
to the fight that they had and remember who their allies were remember in the media who their allies
00:45:12.400
were remember who said you were going to cause anarchy and you were going to cause chaos and you
00:45:17.760
were going to cause mismanagement remember all their names remember it all that's the time when
00:45:23.760
you got to remember that's when it counts that's the defining that's the unforgiving moment as we call it
00:45:33.360
once again to try to take your power to try to take your power and now here to snatch it to snatch
00:45:42.000
it out and they're going to sit there afterwards and go oh no well we didn't we got the majority
00:45:48.400
think about this for a second they're talking about the majority of something as being a big victory
00:45:54.000
can you conceive of the democrats can you conceive of them doing something on on one of their big
00:46:11.760
and and the contempt they hold you in to take the power but also the way they did it
00:46:19.680
the tissue of lies is so ridiculous and i think you've seen today as we wrap this show up here in
00:46:26.160
a few minutes and we're going to go live we're going to live stream um grace the queen of the trolls and uh
00:46:33.040
and captain bannon uh are going to stream it i'll be on in the chat on getter be on my getter count
00:46:38.800
and the war rooms and you don't know maybe if i learn how to work something i'll grace will be kind
00:46:44.240
enough to link me in maybe we actually talk about it later but we're going to cover the debate at 7 30
00:46:50.880
uh also i think carrie lake's got something tonight at 10 we're going to try to cover that too
00:46:55.120
she's got this great thing on the wall we're going to try to cover that we'll call the live debate at
00:46:58.960
7 30 and then the vote at 8 30 and then maybe i'll give some commentary after but
00:47:08.560
this is all about you you've saved this country and brought us here to this point right now
00:47:18.160
and what you did over the last week this thing was going to get by with only a handful of votes
00:47:22.320
against it was you working the phones it was you sending the emails i heard about this non-stop
00:47:27.040
and even some of the names you're gonna pop up and they say hey i can't do it uh leadership is
00:47:33.600
pressing me but i can't do it the reason i can't do it my constituents back home are telling me i can't
00:47:44.960
now where do we go from here and what do we do from here there are some like last january by the
00:47:50.880
the way there's some after 20 or even after 18 or after 20 when we had to show up
00:47:56.320
on the loss that just say have a you know drop out and remember a lot of people drop out after you
00:48:02.800
have those losses and and or that's stolen and i can't you know don't see where the country's going
00:48:06.880
hell you remember at one minute afternoon on the 20th of january of uh 2021 were you
00:48:15.600
here in the war room boris is over there on the on the tarmac and andrews from president trump took
00:48:21.280
off and we're sitting here and we said we're going to stay in the breach this guy's illegitimate and
00:48:26.560
we're going to kill this presidency in the cradle well i think we've done a pretty good job of outing it
00:48:34.640
we haven't done a good we haven't gotten there and killing it and one of the reasons is uh you've
00:48:43.200
got a uniparty establishment we have to be blunt about this that has a lot of power and they're not
00:48:48.000
going to give that power up easily why are they going to do that because this is the most powerful nation
00:48:53.840
not just today it's the most powerful nation in the history of this planet
00:49:00.240
but you because of your fortitude and because of your grit and because of your determination
00:49:10.880
have changed the arc of this you have you you you and if you don't quit
00:49:22.640
tonight is a victory because tonight you're exposing them
00:49:40.960
and hakeem jeffries is sitting there he what what fools he must think we are what he must hold
00:49:47.440
mccarthy and the republican party in such contempt and they should be held in contempt
00:49:53.920
they should be held in contempt because it's contemptible what they're doing
00:50:00.080
the cravenness they have to sit there and they're on the floor can you imagine
00:50:04.640
pelosi can you imagine hakeem jeffries can you imagine these people having to go over and
00:50:11.680
to vote a rule so you can get it up there because you're essentially surrendering you're
00:50:18.400
giving them you're giving them everything they want and we know this for what they're saying
00:50:23.200
they're they're they're gloating they're laughing this locks in all the biden regimes everything
00:50:31.280
but you're going to identify tonight 30 or 40 or 50 it's already over 40 i think it's getting close
00:50:36.640
to 50. norman says 55 it could be lights out and hey we're going to press the bet here it's going
00:50:42.160
to go in the senate it's going to be another fight in the senate then another fight when it
00:50:44.640
comes back the fight ain't over and i realize this show and what we do here is not for everybody i
00:50:50.960
never said it was we're never going to be a mass audience show we're just not we have a huge audience
00:50:56.640
but it's activists it's people that want the fight they want the fight because they understand
00:51:03.920
what they do on memorial day weekend is not just go to the beach what they do on memorial weekend is
00:51:10.240
let's not thank veterans for your service they understand what memorial day is and what it's about
00:51:18.640
