this is what you're fighting for i mean every day you're out there what they're doing is blowing
00:00:15.480
people off if you continue to look the other way and shut up then the oppressors the authoritarians
00:00:23.240
get total control and total power because this is just like in arizona this is just like in georgia
00:00:29.020
it's another element that backs them into a quarter and shows their lies and misrepresentations
00:00:34.100
that's why this audience is going to have to get engaged as we've told you this is the fight
00:00:37.880
all this nonsense all this spin they can't handle the truth war room battleground here's your host
00:00:44.980
stephen k bannon under the new president of the world bank change is already taking root
00:00:51.500
last month i asked the united states congress for additional funds to expand world bank financing
00:00:58.280
by 25 billion dollars and the g20 we rallied the major economies of the world to mobilize even more
00:01:06.400
funding collectively we can deliver a transformational boost to world bank lending let's start there with
00:01:15.060
a potential shutdown we are by my math 11 days away from the deadline of september 30th a week from
00:01:21.480
saturday to get a new budget through it to keep the government from shutting down i think a lot of
00:01:26.040
people talk about this in political terms with brinksmanship and all the rest but from where you
00:01:30.440
sit at treasury what would a government shutdown mean to the economy well look there's absolutely no
00:01:37.520
reason why we should have a government shutdown uh democrats in both the house and the senate and
00:01:44.460
republicans uh in the senate are ready to pass appropriations bills or a continuing resolution
00:01:52.000
to keep the government open and operating for the american people uh speaker mccarthy needs to find a way
00:02:01.680
to do his job which is um to pass a continuing resolution or bills so there's no reason we've got a good
00:02:11.260
strong economy it has a lot of momentum inflation is coming down the labor market remains very strong
00:02:20.880
we really don't need a shock to the economy in the form of a slowdown there's no reason for it at all
00:02:28.400
and yet typically maybe come up to the 11th hour but there is a deal struck to avoid a shutdown if
00:02:34.080
that doesn't happen here due to the internal politics in the republican party what happens to
00:02:38.960
the economy what would you say from treasury well we have not tried to estimate the impact of the
00:02:44.900
shutdown it would depend importantly on how long it lasts but um again there's really no good reason why
00:02:54.500
there should be a shutdown uh when the debt ceiling was raised an agreement was struck uh about that
00:03:03.780
would serve to uh lower the deficit by about a trillion dollars over the next decade and um we should just
00:03:13.860
adhere to the bipartisan agreement that was struck
00:03:17.300
look at the the ball face slice tuesday 19 september year of alert 2023 she looks you in the camera and
00:03:27.620
says the bipartisan debt ceiling deal that over 10 years cut the deficit by a trillion dollars they
00:03:34.420
just increased the trillion dollars in this fiscal year over the over the trade she said it was going
00:03:39.060
to be the deficit is two trillion dollars they admitted we've added a trillion dollars in the
00:03:44.820
national debt in the last 90 days with 33 trillion dollars 33 trillion dollars embrace it and baby 33 is
00:03:52.580
going to seem like a low number in the not too distant future we are on the precipice of the point of no
00:04:00.260
return of literally uh financial chaos and you can see it in the lived experience of your life i've got
00:04:06.500
the philip patrick is is joining me now or is with me he's going to join in a second but i want to
00:04:12.500
make sure that we fully when i get philip on here we talk about all of it that we got a key element
00:04:19.060
that is driving this and that is uh the war in ukraine and you saw posobic what posobic showed
00:04:24.980
this afternoon which was kind of epic and incredible so we've been put on a death list
00:04:30.420
uh by the ukrainian government um to um because he's been speaking the truth of what's happening
00:04:37.300
over there uh from rome ben harnwell who is our uh our our guy for all things uh europe and by the way
00:04:46.980
ben tomorrow i'll have you on i i gotta talk about the situation with salvini and le pen and this big
00:04:53.460
rally they had in europe and the anti the right is coming together on this anti-invasion aspect of uh
00:05:00.340
of what's happening on this migrant crisis globally uh and i noticed uh i noticed uh girl maloney was
00:05:06.980
not at that rally but i'll just put a pin in that for tomorrow um you've been watching this ukraine
00:05:13.140
situation zelinski's sitting there you know beaming looking up at biden today uh with that little puppy
00:05:20.660
dog look as biden sits there and you know spreads more disinformation about how well they're doing
00:05:26.980
and biden's opinion is still whatever it takes as long as it takes open-ended and remember one of the
00:05:33.460
fights you heard this this morning live with matt gates uh gates brings up the point that all the
00:05:40.180
ukrainian all the madness we put into the budget for ukraine is all in the the appropriations process
00:05:45.700
isn't taking that out the 24 billion dollars is a supplement to the pelosi schumer biden mccarthy
00:05:52.900
plan already baked into the cake in our calculation we're at 140 billion dollars 70 billion of outright
00:05:59.620
military aid or higher another i don't know 40 50 a billion we're paying five billion a month
00:06:06.340
and so ben they fired their defense secretary last week corruption they fired then over the weekend
00:06:12.100
they had a saturday night massacre the six uh deputies in the defense in every sector fired
00:06:19.540
then today reuters is got up that the biggest problems zelinski is going to have in coming
00:06:24.500
to the united states is really to address this corruption issue this corruption issue is still
00:06:28.740
big like this should be some big scoop um where are we been on this uh because he should not get one
00:06:37.060
red penny you're going to have philip patrick on here in a minute from birch gold is going to make
00:06:41.220
your head blow up for the for the uh the crisis that we are there on on this debt and it looks like
00:06:48.340
it's no there's no way out that we're not just on the precipice but that we're really at the point of
00:06:54.900
no return that now it's baked into the cake it's systemic it's structural and it's just going to be
00:07:00.340
continue on and make our children everybody under 40 and our children grandchildren debt slaves on top of
00:07:06.900
all this we're talking about more money another 24 billion dollars just up in your face for zelinski
00:07:13.780
and quite frankly the oligarch criminals they're the leadership of uh ukraine ben harnwell thoughts
00:07:19.780
observations good afternoon steve well the backdrop to what i'm going to say today let's go to jence
00:07:26.420
daltenberg the secretary general of the united nations who said a couple of days ago that it was
00:07:32.180
subtle right but he said that um that we're now going in for the long term with this war we're
00:07:37.860
bedding in bedding down this is good into the duration so what they did there really without
00:07:43.940
sort of flashing attention to it in and of itself is that they have now substituted afghanistan for
00:07:50.260
their new latest forever war they've now said this is the the secretary general of the un now saying this
00:07:55.380
is it you know don't expect a wrap-up a conclusion of this anytime soon you know and when he says bed in
00:08:02.100
for the long term who knows what what the long term might mean in terms of nato's projections all of
00:08:08.420
the things being equal and of course they're not uh equal and i think we're the the our globalist elites
00:08:15.060
our sociopathic overlords are going to learn that all things all other variables aren't equal in november
00:08:21.380
of next year so joe biden talking about sociopathic overlords was um at the vatican for all sociopathic
00:08:31.380
uh overlords around the world that is of course the united nations and that is that that is the
00:08:36.180
globalist vatican and he was there this morning doing the warm-up act for president zelensky
00:08:42.420
um and biden said and you know we flagged this up yesterday on the show but let's just
00:08:47.620
do that his headline quote this is the quote that that's picked up the headlines since he gave it an
00:08:53.700
hour or so ago if we allow ukraine to be carved up is the independence of any nation secure uh that's
00:09:01.380
the rhetorical question there of his of his key insight um in order to show trying to rally global support
00:09:10.020
which he hasn't got he no longer has for this war uh if we allow ukraine to be carved up is the
00:09:15.860
independence of any nation secure as we said yesterday on the war room steve this is absolutely
00:09:21.540
um this is the the pillar the fundamental pillar now of trying to persuade american taxpayers to
00:09:28.420
continue the war support but it is a presumption um deprived of of any logical uh explanation or
00:09:36.740
foundation to it it's it's basically an assertion without any proof because it's not true it's simply
00:09:43.060
not true that uh that putin has as um as linsky uh suggested on 60 minutes on sunday uh when he
00:09:52.340
called putin the second hitler it's simply not true that putin's intentions are to occupy the whole of
00:09:58.020
continental europe and yet this is what the uh american leadership nato leadership um is uh basically
00:10:06.020
uh resorting uh resorting to saying because it has no other defense now um to in order to persuade
00:10:13.220
the american taxpayer to continue its money its donations now steve you mentioned this in your
00:10:18.740
introduction this is you know we do call out the mainstream media on the show and rightly so because
00:10:24.740
they are um appalling um as we said on the show i think a month or two a month or two ago the job of the
00:10:31.380
mainstream media is to keep you misinformed about what you don't know and um uh in to keep you
00:10:40.180
misinformed about what you do know and uninformed about what you don't know that was what we said
00:10:45.780
and we do call them out we we call we called them out yesterday however credit where it's due to reuters
00:10:52.740
folks um war and posse will know that reuters along with associated press
00:10:56.980
um is really the two big international press agencies that the press association francais as
00:11:05.060
well which is also a big one the third one but these are the the three supposedly neutral supposedly
00:11:10.580
independent press agencies that draft a lot of the articles that you will then find in your daily
00:11:16.500
newspaper that you're reading and you'll see it at the bottom that it's either reuters or associated
00:11:20.500
press that wrote it so one article on one of these networks is picked up right across the world so
00:11:25.380
credit to reuters and then there's a question right i i'll start with a question and then we can
00:11:30.740
ponder it as i go through this right why now why today that's the question right and and i think the
00:11:37.220
answer's there to anyone who wants to join up the dots because of what's taking place in the united states
00:11:42.420
this week both with uh regards to zelinski addressing the the united nations today um but also his uh
00:11:51.460
zelinski's pitch on thursday at the white house to biden of which you predicted yesterday is going
00:11:56.820
to come out empty-handed this is really i think the the background for for this article in reuters
00:12:03.380
and they've done a job here that they absolutely didn't do on 60 minutes um on sunday which was
00:12:10.420
watching that interview uh on sunday it was like watching two lovers throw melted uh marshmallows into
00:12:17.140
one another's mouths at a table near to you in a restaurant and you're trying not to watch you
00:12:22.820
don't want to intrude on their privacy um this is serious journalism this steve this is not 60 minutes
00:12:29.460
this is an article here which which which joins up really what we've been saying here for a year
00:12:35.860
and a half so here is um a very senior constructor one of the largest constructor firms in ukraine called
00:12:43.780
arc boot development and he's now fled to vienna this is where he gave the interview to um to reuters
00:12:50.660
and his name is now don't get confused now because there are two people with very similar names the
00:12:55.380
first name is identical but they're different people so it's ole my baroda right this is the guy the
00:13:00.420
constructor and he says there's the photo now ole my baroda says in this interview he kept rolls of
00:13:06.900
dollar bills in a safe behind his desk why because it was to bribe officials um and who had the
00:13:16.420
responsibility of handing over this cash from the construction to the officials it was a lawyer called
00:13:23.300
ole tartaroff who reading this article is a very long article here at reuters and i'll put it on my
00:13:30.340
get to feed if folks want to uh to read it in depth and i would suggest that this ole tartaroff
00:13:36.820
that the lawyer the in between is a bit like of a tom hargan i think type uh character um
00:13:44.100
when it's it was his job tartaroff used to solve all issues with law enforcement now why am i going
00:13:49.940
on about this steve today of all days because what is tartaroff doing today what has he been doing since
00:13:55.460
2020 he is a senior a senior advisor to whom you guessed it to president temposinski himself and what
00:14:07.060
does he have responsibility for enforcement and the security agencies law enforcement and the security
00:14:16.580
agencies so this is a guy who's now been labeled uh by first person witness of handing corrupt cash over for
00:14:24.100
bribery um to officials these rolls of cash that were kept in in a safe this guy who was doing this
00:14:32.420
was um is is now a senior advisor to zelensky the other story here um which is a bit more tragic
00:14:41.220
because this article has two sites to it two cases the second one um indicates directly andrei
00:14:48.420
yermak who is president zelensky's chief of staff there was a policeman called dmitry stanko who was
00:14:56.980
leading an inquiry into his corruption and unfortunately that those um those inquiries that the policeman
00:15:04.500
stanko were were taking forward ended when this guy was killed in action in uh east ukraine in october
00:15:13.940
of 2022 and this was a guy who was doing the research into the corruption of zelensky's chief
00:15:20.580
of staff it sounds a bit clinton-esque i know um but these interesting things steve about these two
00:15:26.660
stories that it appears today uh so i would gently suggest i would gently suggest that there are perhaps
00:15:34.020
in the civil war that is taking place in the mainstream media there are forces some of them are guiding 60
00:15:39.940
minutes um but others are guiding other journalists and this is the news that's coming out it's it's not
00:15:45.540
it's not that reuters wants to be but it's it's my point is the the the corruption and the malfeasance
00:15:51.300
is so overwhelming and they understand that now we've been on watch the american people have our back
00:15:56.900
there's no money for ukraine there's gonna be a huge embarrassing fight for the biden regime this week
00:16:02.020
uh as we get down to it it's gonna be pretty intense ben uh what is your uh social media you're
00:16:07.140

00:16:53.300
getting philip patrick up i've got to i've got to play this yeah i got to play again yelling you and
00:16:58.100
you must listen to her of the of the lies misrepresentations this is what you're dealing with
00:17:04.020
this is what we have to deal with here to make sure you're presented the real case let's go ahead
00:17:08.020
and hear janet yellen on the coming coming government shutdown and the state of american uh finances
00:17:16.580
let's start there with a potential shutdown we are by my math 11 days away from the deadline
00:17:22.260
of september 30th a week from saturday to get a new budget through it to keep the government from
00:17:27.220
shutting down i think a lot of people talk about this in political terms with brinksmanship and all the
00:17:31.860
rest but from where you sit at treasury what would a government shutdown mean to the economy well look
00:17:38.580
there's absolutely no reason why we should have a government shutdown uh democrats in both the house
00:17:45.780
and the senate and republicans uh in the senate are ready to pass appropriations bills or a continuing
00:17:53.780
resolution to keep the government open and operating for the american people uh speaker mccarthy needs to
00:18:03.300
find a way to do his job which is um to pass a continuing resolution or bills so there's no reason
00:18:12.820
we've got a good strong economy it has a lot of momentum inflation is coming down the labor market
00:18:21.780
remains very strong we really don't need a shock to the economy in the form of a slowdown there's
00:18:29.460
no reason for it at all and yet typically would maybe come up to the 11th hour but there is a
00:18:34.740
deal struck to avoid a shutdown if that doesn't happen here due to the internal politics in the
00:18:39.220
republican party what happens to the economy what would you say from treasury well we have not tried
00:18:45.460
to estimate the impact of the shutdown it would depend importantly on how long it lasts but um again
00:18:54.980
there's really no good reason why there should be a shutdown uh when the debt ceiling was raised an
00:19:01.780
agreement was struck uh about that would serve to uh lower the deficit by about a trillion dollars over the
00:19:13.060
the next decade and um we should just adhere to the bipartisan agreement that was struck
00:19:27.540
philip patrick my brother i don't even know where to start
00:19:32.980
first off she missed her mark what they what they wanted her there for was to say if if it if the
00:19:38.500
economy shut down if the government shut down at all it'd be catastrophic she's supposed to say
00:19:42.420
that make up lies she missed that then came back philip patrick correct me if i'm wrong
00:19:49.300
of birch gold uh we said at the time we fought the debt ceiling fight that the deficit this year in
00:19:56.260
this fiscal year which ends not the end of the year but september 30th is the way the government's
00:20:00.580
always had it would be two trillion dollars or more they had said no no no worst case a trillion
00:20:06.580
dollars we said two um that has now come to pass on their numbers they admitted two trillion dollars
00:20:13.700
because of decreased tax revenue because of a slowing economy as we called also we've passed
00:20:20.820
a 33 trillion as we predicted happened last night and uh a trillion dollars has been added onto the debt
00:20:28.740
in the last 90 days philip before we get into the new installment on the end of the dollar empire
00:20:35.460
really the choking down of american prosperity that happened back in 71 i'd like to just just give us
00:20:41.860
a framework now your current thoughts on this budget fight the appropriations fight the the cr all of it
00:20:50.020
the national debt we're in your mind where are we i mean you you said it yourself we are if not at
00:20:57.060
the point of no return we're very very close she can't think of a reason to sort of uh you know
00:21:04.980
they're 33 trillion reasons as to why we need to get a handle on this so let's look at some numbers
00:21:10.580
over the last five years the government has spent eleven and a half trillion dollars that it doesn't
00:21:15.620
have racking up 2.3 trillion dollars in debt per year on average but it's getting much worse since
00:21:22.100
the last time we raised the debt ceiling the government's added one trillion dollars in debt
00:21:26.980
per month we're now on track for one trillion dollars in annual interest expense soon interest
00:21:34.260
is going to be the u.s government's biggest expense more than defense and let's not forget the u.s
00:21:39.780
spends more on defense than the other top 10 nations combined it's absolutely mind-blowing
00:21:45.620
and what's the solution going to be another continuing resolution let's kick the can further down
00:21:51.140
the road if this sounds familiar it's because it is familiar it's the same tactic that congress has
00:21:57.700
used over and over again this time though it's not certain that that continuing resolution is going to
00:22:03.380
pass the senate has already passed a 1.59 trillion dollar version version of the budget so i think the
00:22:10.580
pressure's on the house freedom caucus is is holding mccarthy's feet to the fire at the moment because
00:22:17.700
i think they understand it's the only way that we can cut deficit spending is to force a confrontation
00:22:24.180
like this we've been saying this for a long time but it needs to happen let's just restate that fact
00:22:30.260
again since the last time we raised the debt ceiling we've added a trillion dollars in debt per month
00:22:36.260
it is out of control and it is insustainable i wouldn't be surprised if we saw a government shutdown over
00:22:42.820
the issue because it is the only way i think something extreme to get a handle on government
00:22:48.500
spending because this administration doesn't appear to respond to reason so we have to force
00:22:55.060
the debate we've said it time and time again and i'm hoping this time something happens
00:23:02.580
the um the misdirection play and for our audience and by the way the number is 202-225-3121 you can call we
00:23:10.740
need you to call your representative particularly members of the house looks like the senate may
00:23:15.380
actually be slowing down because ron johnson's actually stepping into they once they pass the
00:23:19.460
budget they got to get to the appropriations process that was all supposed to just fly through
00:23:24.740
but he's actually bringing up some issues about the woken weaponized he is talking about the the debt
00:23:30.020
but not he doesn't make that center everything we try to do at war room the woken weaponized is
00:23:34.900
critically important to get out you can't pay for this madness it's destroying the country but if we
00:23:40.340
don't get our arms around the main thing and the main thing here is an apparatus is just out of
00:23:48.020
control i mean philip right now we know it's about five trillion dollars that comes in and the reason
00:23:53.140
we have a bigger deficit this year is that that number is lower because the lower capital gains
00:23:57.860
taxes fewer financial transactions and trading going on and uh and also decrease revenues because
00:24:04.100
the economy is the real economy is just slowing with seven trillion dollars and that's this year and
00:24:10.740
more coming that that delta is two trillion explain the audience we've got a couple minutes on this side
00:24:16.900
can we have a system that continues with two trillion dollar annual deficits that are just added to the
00:24:24.180
national debt sir well the answer is absolutely not as we see interest payments on the debt are already
00:24:30.900
getting out of control it's affecting the fed's ability to fight inflation the likelihood is they're
00:24:36.340
not going to raise rates tomorrow despite the fact that headline inflation's going up and the reality is that
00:24:43.140
they can't really do it right last time they raise rates to try and quell inflation it put a squeeze on on the
00:24:49.060
banks and i think they're worried about the same thing happening now so it's stopping our ability to
00:24:54.660
deal with the problems noel robini said that you know permanently higher inflation would be the reality
00:25:01.860
for the world he said this two percent target was now mission impossible and in large part that's been
00:25:07.780
driven by massive deficit spending which has tied our hands behind our back it's becoming an impossible
00:25:14.420
problem to solve we've said this before this is how empires have collapsed collapsed throughout history
00:25:21.060
right it's happened over and over and over again in 71 when nixon took us off the gold standard
00:25:27.300
governments around the world knew how this would end and and and it's playing out in front of our eyes
00:25:34.180
and this administration is doing everything they can to pull that time frame forward
00:25:38.660
and exacerbate the issue but if it doesn't stop now we're at the point of no return
00:25:44.420

when you have the secretary treasury that looks you in the eye uh philip patrick and lies to you
00:32:37.940
and you have a guy like robini who's been such an expert in macroeconomics in the global economy and
00:32:44.660
he's warning us on a macro level that the world is too leveraged up not just the united states united
00:32:49.700
states he particularly singles out but the entire world is so over leveraged that this is going to
00:32:54.820
end in tears why in the united states do we we really go back to nixon the fdr obviously in 32
00:33:02.820
about the gold standard but we really bring it forward after the breton woods agreement after the war
00:33:08.180
to essentially the end of breton woods in that weekend in camp david why is it why is that weekend
00:33:13.620
so important and here's the beauty of it it is never discussed i think there's been one book over
00:33:20.100
the last 20 or 30 years about it written by one of the heads of the yale school of management who's
00:33:25.540
not exactly a conservative uh and even that book's pretty damning why is nobody talk about this why
00:33:32.100
is nobody talk about over a weekend they made a decision to stop the convertibility of the dollar
00:33:38.180
into gold and by the way if that happened today with the alternative media we have there would be
00:33:43.300
a firestorm like no firestorm it would make the great fire of london look uh look tame philip patrick
00:33:51.380
look i mean it's it's a story ultimately of how the u.s went from the world's most prosperous nation to
00:33:57.780
a paper tiger and it boils down to to deficit spending which during an age of the gold standard simply
00:34:04.420
wasn't possible and of course back in 1971 nixon decided that the world would be better off if he
00:34:11.300
could massively increase spending which was only possible if the dollar was no longer supported by
00:34:16.820
gold so essentially he temporarily removed the u.s from the gold standard and that really ushered in an
00:34:24.660
age of unconstrained money printing since that day the dollars lost 86 percent of its purchasing power
00:34:32.180
and quite frankly it was truly shocking how little thought went into nixon's decision for the first
00:34:38.660
time in history by the way the global reserve currency wasn't backed by gold and we embarked on
00:34:45.380
a massive experiment with keynesism and i think we're living in in the ashes of that today we've said before
00:34:52.580
when we've come on as as as you write the series of the dollar empire things become more and more true
00:35:00.260
and we're almost writing history in front of us but it's incredible the lessons from the past
00:35:05.540
what they can teach us today if only uh our current administration had had studied a little bit
00:35:12.420
harder i think we wouldn't be in the position you know this is one of the reasons that started and
00:35:16.500
it started in 32 with fdr they knew that unless they got off of gold uh you couldn't do the massive
00:35:22.580
printing of the of the great depression then even world war ii nixon because of the guns and butter
00:35:27.220
remember you had the vietnam war uh and nixon knew that was going to go on uh other global
00:35:32.580
commitments because we're becoming an empire from a republic but also nixon made a deal with pat
00:35:38.180
monaghan and he basically said i'm not going to shut down the spending of the great society
00:35:43.540
nixon never went after any great society programs in fact the epa he added to him you know nixon was
00:35:48.820
was quite frankly a globalist a true patriot i'm not trying to get on nixon the thing i want to go
00:35:54.420
back to that shocking and this is why it's very important to go to birchgold.com and get the
00:36:00.660
report get all of them and see the see the level of work the birch gold team's done with us and
00:36:05.780
putting this together but also call birch gold call call the guys and ask them to call the team over
00:36:11.940
there and ask them connect with them about gold overall what why the federal reserve why you got
00:36:17.140
janet yellen looking in the face and lying to you remember she's your secretary of the treasury
00:36:21.140
why the treasury and the fed are spending all this time on the central bank digital currency
00:36:25.140
yet the global south which i'm honored to say that philip patrick the team of birch gold war room
00:36:30.020
abandoned were the first to call that this bricks thing is real and watch out there's a new geopolitical
00:36:34.900
entity why the guys in the global south that control the resources their central banks are buying
00:36:40.340
gold and i keep telling people the people that run these countries are not stupid they have all the
00:36:44.900
stanford mbas they have the harvard mbas they have an hp 12c they can run all the net cash flow
00:36:50.980
they understand what's going on and those young people around them are saying hey boss i got an
00:36:55.460
idea let's buy some gold right so at record rates the central banks of this country are buying gold
00:37:00.980
now this is the point that's going to shock you and they're doing it they're running linear programs and
00:37:05.940
and and getting down to what they need to back up what they've got and not to let the purchasing
00:37:10.900
power of the federal reserve the federal reserve know crush them yeah to philip patrick's point when
00:37:15.860
you read this and in my research as i said it's only been a couple of one or two books ever written
00:37:20.820
about it but even very little news coverage philip the thing that shocked me coming out of hbs and
00:37:27.700
goldman sachs and having my own firm they made one of the most monumental decisions in world economic
00:37:36.980
history and i'm still not sure if they ever looked at any financial models it's nothing's in the
00:37:43.220
writing that you can actually get to somebody i mean john conley was a blowhard politician he looked
00:37:48.340
like a he looked like you call central casting for a texan this guy shows up uh and he had business
00:37:54.260
connections aerospace you had these other guys nobody's running any numbers there's there's no
00:37:59.700
dialogue there's no philip and i look and i said no no no i got the team and i said let me do some
00:38:03.860
more research i came back i said i can't find anything next time we're in the white house
00:38:08.180
we're going to go over to treasury and demand the archives i know seriously this is one of the most
00:38:12.180
important decisions in world history and they literally are just winging it right and nixon's
00:38:16.980
trying to get us so he does it sunday night so he gets it makes the announcement sunday night
00:38:20.340
on national tv they're worried about the speech how big an impact walk us through the the decrease in
00:38:27.220
the purchasing power of the dollar that killed us didn't it yeah it's absolutely killed us and it's
00:38:32.340
it's been exacerbated and escalating significantly recently look when nixon took us off the gold
00:38:38.900
standard in the 70s the world as i mentioned before they were up in arms and they knew how
00:38:44.100
this thing would end with massive money printing and they came to the us and said look what's going
00:38:49.300
to stop you doing exactly what we're doing today and john conley actually a famous response he said listen
00:38:55.860
the dollar's our currency but it's your problem and and the reality is in the 1970s what was anybody
00:39:02.820
going to do about that there was no rival to the us dollar there was no economic rivals it was a case
00:39:08.180
of like it or lump it well the problem is 50 odd years down the line number one the argument for the
00:39:14.340
dollar is a stable store of value which is key to a reserve currency is weakening right the dollar's lost 16
00:39:21.620
percent purchasing power in in in in the space of three and a half years secondly and maybe more
00:39:28.100
importantly when you act as the world's policeman and you weaponize your currency one too many times
00:39:33.940
which by the way we've been doing with increasing frequency since the turn of the century there comes
00:39:39.140
a point when the world turns around and says no longer and i'm worried that that's where we are right
00:39:43.460
now i i i made this argument the oval i said we got one bullet in the chamber of weaponizing the
00:39:50.180
dollar we got to use it to take down the ccp you start doing the rest of the stuff you're going to
00:39:55.140
have a major blowback they're going to try to get off the dollar and i'm not arguing that we should
00:40:00.340
be the prime reserve currency that's an argument and a debate we should have but i would definitely
00:40:05.220
argue you just can't have it taken away from you because that's going to have the financial and
00:40:08.980
economic collapse of the united states we're going to be like argentina when you can't sell those
00:40:12.740
bonds philip patrick how do folks get to you over at birch gold because you're doing a tremendous
00:40:17.540
public service but you're also helping people think through and that's what we want you to do
00:40:21.220
just immerse yourself in information you'll make the right decision but right now you're you're
00:40:26.580
getting spun by your treasury department you're getting spun by the federal reserve and particularly
00:40:31.060
the business press has done a terrible job here so where do people go to get the truth it's very
00:40:36.020
simple birchgold.com forward slash bannon again birchgold.com forward slash bannon that's going to get
00:40:44.660
them access to a free information kit on on precious metals how to invest as well as the
00:40:50.420
end of the dollar empire series uh birchgold.com slash bannon uh they can reach me at philip patrick
00:40:58.180
on getter as well uh okay thank you very much brother i appreciate everybody go to uh birchgold.com
00:41:07.140
slash bannon right now do we have a cold open thank you we have a cold open with jeff clark let's go
00:41:11.540
and play the uh one one thing for the cold open with clark there's a huge article and a great
00:41:16.980
article in politico today about the deconstruction of the administrative state and actually the action
00:41:22.420
plan this is new york times gives you the overall architecture but politico has done a great story
00:41:28.340
about the new republican revolution coming and jeff clark is very is prominent there as is russ vote and
00:41:33.860
everything the cra is doing to actually get the shock troops in to deconstruct the administrative
00:41:39.300
state and take on the deep state once trump returns to power in january of 2025 after one of the 24
00:41:45.300
election everybody if grace and mo can push that out um if um carly bonnet can push it out over over
00:41:53.140
at uh at uh her site the um if everybody can get to that and read it this is a must read and jeff clark's
00:42:01.220
one of the stall stars of that so make sure you get that jeff clark's working away beavering away
00:42:04.900
every day 24 7 let's play jeff clark's cold open we'll bring in jeff
00:42:12.580
professor sobin your view on the self-executing nature of this section
00:42:17.140
i agree that it's self-executing uh but it's also the case that once selection officials
00:42:22.820
make initial decisions about this what they do is subject to judicial review in state court and likely in
00:42:29.220
federal court as well so i agree that if it was just up to some partisan election official
00:42:34.020
professor mcconnell would be right to worry that they would try to disqualify their opponents and
00:42:38.340
get away with it but it wouldn't be up to them alone uh what they do could be challenged in court
00:42:43.380
and judges who are not beholden to one political party or another uh if you know the power was being
00:42:48.660
abused to disqualify people who are not legitimately disqualified then the court could overturn uh that
00:42:55.060
decision just as has been the case with other disputes over election qualifications uh in the past
00:43:06.260
professor sobin let me ask you this former attorney general michael mccasey argued in the
00:43:09.940
washington post last week that the insurrection clause would not apply to trump even if it was an
00:43:13.780
insurrection because quote the use of the term officer of the united states in other constitutional
00:43:18.340
provisions shows that it refers only to appointed officials not to elected ones what do you make of
00:43:23.620
that argument especially given the president takes an oath to faithfully execute the quote office of
00:43:28.260
president i think it's a really bad argument the constitution multiple times refers to the
00:43:34.980
presidency as quote an office moreover it would be ridiculous to say uh that the one office holder uh who
00:43:42.980
is not uh subject to disqualification if he engages insurrection is the highest office holder in the
00:43:49.220
land the president united states it would just be utterly ridiculous to come out with a reading like
00:43:54.100
that and only the most overwhelming possible textual evidence could even begin to justify a reading of
00:43:59.860
the constitution like that and the people who argue for this reading you know there's some smart people
00:44:05.140
but in this instance they're just very badly wrong
00:44:10.980
does the supreme court want this case does chief justice roberts what if you were a judge of the supreme
00:44:16.260
court would you be trying to avoid this as much as possible this is such a major question and if
00:44:22.020
these justices decide that actually donald trump cannot run it will be the probably the most consequential
00:44:28.260
supreme court opinion in history will it not uh that's true and i think you're right i think they
00:44:34.500
will be they're sitting there just hoping that there's going to be some way to get out of it there may
00:44:39.460
not be it may be that they really do have to uh to decide the case but there are a number of procedural
00:44:45.780
complications uh that could get in the way and keep them from deciding the ultimate question of whether
00:44:51.860
donald trump engaged in an insurrection uh for example uh there are all kinds of timing questions uh
00:45:00.420
is the is is the law has anything actually happened lawsuits are being filed but actually has anything
00:45:06.420
happened uh yet who who are the authorities what their state law questions about what the reach of
00:45:13.780
state electoral officials is going to be the uh i mean one very important point potentially important
00:45:20.500
point is that section three does not actually keep an insurrectionist from running for office
00:45:27.460
what it does is it keeps an insurrection from an insurrectionist from holding office so arguably
00:45:34.820
the whole case is not going to be ripe and unless and until uh donald trump is actually elected
00:45:40.980
president and you know what a mess that would be i'm really uh proud of this show for being at the
00:45:48.180
forefront as soon as i saw the initial report of the federal society professors writing this i said told
00:45:54.820
the team i said oh baby this is going to be large and it's actually even bigger than i thought it
00:46:01.940
initially was no the supreme court the supreme court understands if it ever gets there which
00:46:07.060
if we do our work it will not it'll be a decision at the level of dread scott and i don't say that
00:46:13.940
lightly neither side will be happy by the by the outcome jeff clark you've been at the forefront of
00:46:21.140
this uh i want to put what we just saw there which i thought was a very reasoned debate on something
00:46:26.340
that's a radical idea they're thinking it through in their own mind of how they because their whole
00:46:30.420
thing is to stop trump and coupled with the new information we know of kelly was a calabrese the
00:46:36.420
head of the federal society which i think he had to step into the breach here because this thing is
00:46:39.860
spinning out of control jeff clark well steve always good to be on with you and i i do think that uh
00:46:46.340
you know medi hassan uh there did have a you know useful debate between uh professor mcconnell and
00:46:52.500
professor uh soman and uh look it you know if this did get to the supreme court just like mcconnell
00:46:58.980
acknowledged it would be potentially the you know biggest supreme court case uh in history you
00:47:03.780
know i think uh bigger bigger than uh dred scott because it really threatens to take away the franchise
00:47:09.460
from people to be able to vote for the president of united states and and i think would also destroy
00:47:15.220
the whole functioning of the electoral college the first clip there uh you know that i put together
00:47:20.900
i called lawfare because basically what this strategy is trying to unleash is having you know
00:47:26.740
uh uh dozens of state uh uh secretaries of state um and you know maybe hundreds of county officials
00:47:35.620
depending on how state law works basically empowered to separately say oh we're just not going to put
00:47:39.940
donald trump on the ballot uh and that is crazy and i'll give you a homely example of that imagine we
00:47:46.820
were back at the time when obama was running and there was the whole controversy about where was he
00:47:52.100
born was he born in hawaii and therefore qualified to to run for president and to become president or
00:47:57.140
was he born in kenya therefore disqualified couldn't become president imagine if that question steve had
00:48:03.300
been put to individual county and state secretaries of state for them to uh you know decide on their own
00:48:10.580
that question you would have had mass chaos uh in the streets i think you would have had you know
00:48:16.660
this biggest case in the history of the supreme court ever back then i think you know the obviously
00:48:22.180
the mainstream media would have attacked it and mocked it mercilessly as a cynical attempt by radical
00:48:28.020
republicans to block obama from uh becoming president and we're just dealing exactly with with that
00:48:34.580
as mirrored onto trump it's all about a stop trump effort and i think it's it's really
00:48:40.020
constitutional radicalism at at the highest level and i think that's why that's caused uh and this
00:48:46.180
relates to the second clip about you know the the uh civil or military officers of the united states
00:48:52.260
that's caused uh professor calabrese from northwestern you know one of the top 10 law
00:48:56.580
schools in the country he's one of the founders of the federal society he uh originally said that the
00:49:02.340
professors baud and and uh paulson article was a tour de force and that article argues that trump can't
00:49:09.780
be president under this disqualification argument but uh he has uh since backtracked as you noted
00:49:16.980
he wrote a letter to the wall street journal on top of mucasy's article in the wall street journal
00:49:21.860
saying yeah you know on second thought uh i was wrong i reconsider i have to uh correct the record i've
00:49:28.100
now been persuaded that actually this does not this clause does not apply to donald trump and that he should
00:49:33.780
be on the ballot now what he also said steve was that he thinks uh trump is loathsome and that uh he
00:49:41.060
basically shouldn't be voted for by anyone but he still you know realized uh once he looked at some
00:49:47.380
other scholarship uh by uh professor josh uh blackman that uh you know hey yeah this argument uh that that uh
00:49:55.140
bought and paulson put together who were you know federal society uh uh affiliates that they uh you
00:50:01.220
know their arguments all wet so you know that's the state of play at this point right we even have
00:50:06.500
people who realize that the stakes of this are so earth-shattering and could cause such chaos for
00:50:11.860
the country that they're backing away from it um how does this your lawyer you know you're in the
00:50:19.060
shortlist to be the attorney general in the next uh in the second trump term but this is as big a
00:50:26.500
firestorm is the legal and constitutional we we know they're not validated but that's a huge effort
00:50:32.500
right now to get into the political realm california is already talking about a way the state legislature
00:50:37.940
they're coming up with a bunch of tricks how they're just going to step in here and game off the ballot
00:50:43.220
what do we have to do to stop this from metastasizing into the political process
00:50:47.940
at the individual states i i think uh steve that uh you need to you know much like is happening on
00:50:54.820
the budget fight you need to make sure that uh you get to your uh congressman your senator you talk about
00:51:01.700
how ridiculous this is you talk about the fact that they brought trump up in the second impeachment on
00:51:07.140
the charge that he violated section three because he either provided aid and comfort to an insurrection
00:51:13.540
or was part of an insurrection and that failed it failed in that trial that's the end of the matter
00:51:19.780
and the import of the of the third clip there about ripeness where professor mcconnell was discussing
00:51:25.540
that is i didn't get into this in my own article on this because there's you know unless you want to i
00:51:30.180
wanted to write another 120 page piece right if you want to do something quick for people uh you know
00:51:35.540
there's only uh so much you can cover uh but the the ripeness issue is important because the text of
00:51:40.900
section three of the 14th amendment talks about not holding office really the questions would not
00:51:45.940
be ripe unless and until trump were elected and at that point if trump were elected by the people
00:51:51.300
under the electoral college system in in america that then the issue of trying to use section three
00:51:56.980
against him is a political question and it's one that the court shouldn't even interfere and they
00:52:01.700
should let the process uh you know that election run run its course and leave president trump in office
00:52:07.620
