this is what you're fighting for i mean every day you're out there what they're doing is blowing
00:00:15.060
people off if you continue to look the other way and shut up then the oppressors the authoritarians
00:00:22.820
get total control and total power because this is just like in arizona this is just like in georgia
00:00:28.600
it's another element that backs them into a quarter and shows their lies and misrepresentations
00:00:33.680
that's why this audience is going to have to get engaged as we've told you this is the fight
00:00:37.440
all this nonsense all this spin they can't handle the truth war room battleground here's your host
00:00:44.560
stephen k bannon donald trump was president taxes were cut regulations were slashed energy was
00:00:53.560
abundant wages were rising capital was returning from overseas to fund the dreams and ambitions
00:01:00.820
of our fellow americans and the economy was roaring what a contrast to what we have seen from this
00:01:08.100
administration now and so i rise to nominate donald trump for the position of speaker of the house
00:01:14.340
and for all of the vitriol that we hear from the media and at times the left there were great moments
00:01:20.540
of bipartisanship under the trump presidency and the democrat nominee for speaker knows that well
00:01:26.960
because he led valiantly on the efforts for criminal justice reform and i was honored to join
00:01:33.360
him and i know no matter who's sitting in that speaker chair we got a lot of work to do on that
00:01:37.980
very issue we took a first step but there's a second step and a third step to take and i'm glad
00:01:43.060
that we were able to work with president trump with republicans and with democrats to provide real
00:01:48.460
outcomes for americans to create greater prosperity and more opportunity where president trump is
00:01:54.640
considering a visit to the u.s capitol early next week as house republicans consider who should be
00:01:59.060
their next speaker according to two gop lawmakers and two trump allies former president who has not
00:02:05.200
set foot on capitol grounds since prior to january 6th is considering making an appearance so he goes
00:02:10.960
on fox news this afternoon and says this quote they have asked me if i want it um not clear who they are
00:02:17.300
their voices in his head who sometimes chime in as well as we all know but basil do you um do we
00:02:22.840
entertain this do we give it oxygen do we ignore it in the next surprise if it happens how do what do
00:02:27.800
we do with this well i think you you have you can't ignore it because the reality is every gop candidate
00:02:34.140
on that debate stage even if they claim to be running against donald trump's policies they still
00:02:39.440
you know sort of feel to each of him so he's going to be a player in all of this um and and of course
00:02:45.760
i hate to say that but the reality is i have to i have to account for it i should say um and you
00:02:51.640
know what you won't see is what we saw in 1994 with newt gingrich standing with members of congress
00:02:56.760
and saying this is the contract with america and all the intellectual underpinnings from the heritage
00:03:01.620
foundation i don't mean to sound wistful about that time but it does it does reinforce uh the this
00:03:09.980
juxtaposition where you had representative comor on tuesday saying we have no plan representative
00:03:14.900
davidson saying there's no path forward to governing so to me what you're looking at with
00:03:20.200
either scalise jordan or yes scalise jordan or and donald trump's influence is that you're looking
00:03:26.400
at who's going to more quickly decimate what's left of the republican party um and and and and create
00:03:32.920
something that is so antithetical to where the rest of this country is um uh that you know i hate to
00:03:39.420
use the term lesser of two evils because i've just we got and by the way memphis we're in the
00:03:45.500
second hour it's thursday five october you're perfect memphis you're doing part of my production
00:03:50.600
team it's so outrageous of what's being said brother he's he's winning every poll you're saying
00:03:57.080
the nation's rejecting this he's winning every poll for president united states so maybe here's what we
00:04:03.040
do if we can do it tell me to do it let's get troy nels on our show earlier today a nominate just to
00:04:08.740
just get that ready and then i want to flip the entire msnbc after that so we hear him nominate okay
00:04:15.100
well we play the gates is what went on in january remember we were the first advocates for trump to
00:04:20.340
be speaker and if trump had stepped in a speaker on some interim basis and just taking us through
00:04:25.280
2023 we wouldn't be here the budget would be cut the appropriations bills would be done the
00:04:32.780
impeachment investigations would have gone on and uh trump be back out into the presidential
00:04:37.700
trouble but no keebler elves none of that waste another waste of time but that didn't happen and
00:04:43.140
we're not one to look back and and wind as you know uh we are where we are but this is quite powerful
00:04:48.260
congressman troy nels from texas was on here today he said he's putting his name he is nominating
00:04:54.400
donald j trump to be interim speaker now his idea of interim speaker went all the way through a lot of
00:05:00.440
2024 my idea is is a lot shorter and it is to allow the party to kind of sit down and have all
00:05:10.440
these things that have to be done here immediately and that would be get the appropriations bills done
00:05:15.240
sit down with the senate hammer out negotiating a conference the overall appropriation is what it's
00:05:21.060
going to be take out the woken weaponized defang uh and who better to do that than having trump
00:05:26.800
and at the negotiation table with you with mitch mcconnell and sherman on the other side hammer
00:05:31.380
that out and then the white house is going to have a big role in this and then get biden to sign it and
00:05:35.860
get that all done before year end so no omnibus and people being able to look through and see all this
00:05:39.720
stuff in addition take dramatic action on the southern border force biden's hand for they're out today
00:05:47.280
mac daddy on drudge and my yorkas they're saying yeah we got to build a wall we're going to build a wall
00:05:51.080
because the upper west side and upper east side of new york are now overwhelmed with the illegal alien
00:05:57.880
invaders all of a sudden it's uh it's it's a problem you know colorado what number two what
00:06:04.960
bobert tells first hour number two state in the union and fentanyl every state's a border state people
00:06:09.780
dying all over the place crime run rampant what's that situation up in uh is it wisconsin illinois the
00:06:16.900
house where they gang raped a little girl 11 years old all illegal aliens just it's just savages these
00:06:22.020
are savages not all of them but they're not sending their best that's why it's got to be stopped
00:06:28.940
if you if you're sending your best it's got to be stopped it's the rules of the rules they're they're
00:06:34.540
they've toned the asylum rules out and just anybody that wants to come can just come that's got to stop
00:06:40.440
trump can stop that trump can also get the investigation oversight going and then
00:06:45.920
as i said this morning on getter that's why you have to go to getter download the app you want to
00:06:50.980

00:07:03.320
putting stuff up all the time war posses all over if you had been on getter you would have seen this
00:07:09.700
morning i don't know it was before the show it was like nine o'clock nine thirty i put up the
00:07:14.100
president trump should come in for a hundred days and leave exactly exactly at high noon on the 20th
00:07:22.860
of january 2024 he should turn it over to whoever the conference picks is it jordan is calice is it
00:07:28.540
uh hearns of oklahoma whoever they've got a lot of folks that are interested in it jump in
00:07:33.000
and in seeing that it'd be one year from the date that he's going to take his put his hand on the
00:07:40.760
bible at high noon and take an oath to heaven as the 47th president of the united states of america
00:07:48.360
it's got symmetry to it it has symmetry if done appropriately tuesday
00:07:54.900
will be one of the most memorable days in american political history be donald john trump
00:08:04.260
returning to the imperial capital to set things right let's go and play i want to play in the
00:08:12.300
order of i think we got sheriff nels this morning the 10 o'clock show and i really want to thank him
00:08:16.360
uh and then we'll play msnbc this is the first guy just came across the wire where msnbc you see their
00:08:22.100
original and i'll let it and and and we love playing msnbc clips and cnn but more msnbc because
00:08:28.700
that gets to you more because you can see how they're positioning things that's what we play them
00:08:32.360
we know it irritates you it's supposed to irritate you i didn't say the show is supposed to be easy
00:08:37.540
if you want easy shows this is probably not the place for you okay let's go and play it and you look
00:08:44.900
at what we see today now with biden we got a crisis on every corner and we didn't have these issues when
00:08:50.180
trump was president i'm thinking he did such a fabulous job he was the greatest president of my
00:08:55.060
lifetime if uh he made america great again why do we get donald trump to make congress great again i
00:09:00.820
mean we it seems right now we've got individuals that are vying that are going to run for speaker
00:09:06.980
of the house i don't know if we can find consensus find that candidate um and i just think donald trump
00:09:14.060
would be the perfect interim he could stay there for 14 months uh be the speaker of the house continue
00:09:20.420
to run for president and then uh after january he could just move right over into the white house
00:09:25.520
where he belongs it's done i am nominating donald j trump for speaker of the house yes
00:09:33.140
president trump is considering a visit to the u.s capitol early next week as house republicans
00:09:38.100
consider who should be their next speaker according to two gop lawmakers and two trump allies
00:09:43.460
former president who has not set foot on capitol grounds since prior to january 6th is considering
00:09:48.560
making an appearance so he goes on fox news this afternoon and says this quote they have asked me if
00:09:54.520
i want it um not clear who they are their voices in his head who sometimes chime in as well as we all
00:10:00.280
know but basil do you um do we entertain this do we give it oxygen do we ignore it and the next
00:10:06.340
surprise if it happens how do what do we do with this well i think you you have you can't ignore
00:10:11.200
it because the reality is every gop candidate on that debate stage even if they claim to be
00:10:16.880
running against donald trump's policies they still you know sort of feel to each a.m so he's going to
00:10:22.860
be a player in all of this um and and of course i hate to say that but the reality is i have to i have
00:10:28.520
to account for it i should say um and you know what you won't see is what we saw in 1994 with newt
00:10:35.280
gingrich standing with members of congress and saying this is the contract with america
00:10:38.540
and all the intellectual underpinnings from the heritage foundation i don't mean to sound wistful
00:10:43.760
about that time but it does it does reinforce uh the this juxtaposition where you had representative
00:10:51.800
comor on tuesday saying we have no plan representative davidson saying there's no path forward to governing
00:10:57.660
so to me what you're looking at with either scalise jordan or yes scalise jordan or and donald trump's
00:11:05.080
influence is that you're looking at who's going to more quickly decimate what's left of the
00:11:09.600
republican party um and and and and create something that is so antithetical to where the rest of this
00:11:16.000
country is um uh that you know i hate to use the term lesser of two evils because i just generally hate
00:11:21.980
saying that but in my strategy this my strategist hat is well who's the one that's going to unite
00:11:27.980
republicans the most and raise the most money for the more vulnerable members that probably is going
00:11:34.720
to be part of the test but the reality is it doesn't matter anyway because it's it's all bad and it's all
00:11:40.080
the worst possible outcome david jolly what are you hearing about the pacing of okay um
00:11:48.040
you saw the first response they're going to decimate what's left no if they're telling you do
00:11:54.900
something do the opposite that's generally what you want to do do the opposite um this is very
00:12:03.320
important so war room posse listen up number one on the two zero two two two five three one two one
00:12:11.820
or make sure there's a lot going on uh south carolina rhinos the established south carolina are dragging
00:12:17.660
uh nancy mace because of her heroic stand if you're down in her district or if you're in the
00:12:23.160
state of south carolina or if you're have become a fan of nancy mace and her principled stand
00:12:28.320
i remember nancy mace and of course the the media was going oh bannon confronted her we didn't she
00:12:33.620
been on the show before they haven't been confronting she's a her interpretation of the constitution
00:12:38.440
she voted for my uh contempt charge hey we're in the middle of a revolution i can i can you know
00:12:45.000
you're going to have alliances and you're going to have alliances i have no i don't agree with that
00:12:49.360
obviously in my appeal which will come i think now in november the government's asked for a delay
00:12:54.280
because of a personal tragedy to one of the people on the government's team
00:12:57.580
i think the appeals now in november uh it's very tightly argued and my attorneys are also
00:13:04.700
constitutionalists and make a very compelling argument about some of the biggest constitutional
00:13:09.140
issues in the house and also about executive privilege and other things and that'll all come
00:13:14.620
out over time as you know i never talk about the the cases on here because i think it's it's
00:13:18.960
more appropriate just let it play out in a court of law um but i have no problem i don't agree with
00:13:24.640
her but i have no problem particularly having her in the war room and now she's getting dragged down
00:13:27.980
to south carolina so for the media no it was no i was teasingly saying she had voted to send me to
00:13:34.340
a federal prison we got uh we're gonna get natalie up in a second natalie's in a little bit of flame
00:13:40.940
more natalie our own natalie g winners now natalie uh you have been so focused on probably the lead
00:13:47.700
investigator about the chinese communist party its infiltration america everything wuhan recently you
00:13:53.780
have done a pivot because we need to get into the back of a lot of the stuff in ukraine you've written
00:13:58.740
a number of stories just been fantastic there's a congressman today that's taking umbrage with your
00:14:05.380
uh with your reporting and analysis can you walk us through it of course
00:14:09.880
the a season pond uh this is representative marcy captor from ohio a democrat on the appropriations
00:14:20.480
committee she's also the co-chair of the congressional ukraine committee um but this has to do with the
00:14:26.200
story that i published earlier today and we talked about on war room how there were a lot of people in
00:14:30.120
the mainstream media pushing for more aid to ukraine who also happened to be on the u.s ukraine business
00:14:35.740
council lobbying group that represents not just the defense industry but the ukrainian government
00:14:40.440
itself and i continue to look into the group today and believe it or not a you know current u.s
00:14:46.140
congressman that is representative marcy captor is also a strategic advisor to this entity which in and
00:14:52.000
of itself i think is i mean that's that's the true story right it's absolutely ridiculous i'm gonna
00:14:58.200
keep digging into her because obviously i touched a nerve or the democrats just have something with
00:15:03.360
unregistered foreign lobbying but she didn't like that i took to twitter to expose her for doing this
00:15:09.660
so i'll read what she she quote tweeted in the shade war she said basically keep in mind she's
00:15:15.880
basically admitting to working for a foreign lobbying group by saying this she says the all
00:15:20.780
volunteer u.s ukraine business council seeks to establish and deepen economic connections and trade
00:15:26.380
between freedom-loving peoples in the context of russia's horrific invasion it is vitally
00:15:31.260
important life-saving work meanwhile putin's pawns are everywhere i see she went for the alliteration
00:15:38.340
but uh obviously not true but i think it shows you i mean like you said this morning steve when we get
00:15:44.680
to the bottom of this whole ukraine issue altruism will not be the prevailing uh motivation for what
00:15:51.220
people are doing god is saying it's all volunteer yeah no no i i just want to make sure she called
00:15:59.900
you she referred to you as putin's pawn basically saying that you're doing this at the behest of the
00:16:05.720
kgb and you're one of these sympathizers with putin why would she do that
00:16:10.100
well i think we touched the nerves i think when you really dig down into what the ukraine conflict
00:16:17.420
is about you know i think the stories we've been putting out this week really show that the sort of
00:16:22.680
fog of war that they've created around ukraine and the aid and the actual reality of the fighting on
00:16:28.940
the ground is intentional right for lack of a better metaphor they're the ones running the fog machines
00:16:34.360
they're the ones calling for continued foreign aid calling or rather opposing audits opposing the
00:16:41.840
ability to actually understand where our money is going because i think again with these stories we've
00:16:47.160
been publishing you can sort of reverse engineer and see that often the interests that whether it's
00:16:53.080
lobbyists the mainstream talking heads or in this case quite literally democratic elected officials
00:16:59.200
who are you know like i said on the appropriations committee the very same members
00:17:03.640
who have written letters to joe biden demanding f-16s for ukraine and have been a leading voice in
00:17:08.860
the house for more ukraine aid even amidst the current negotiations uh over the cr she did a house
00:17:15.840
speech where she said ukraine is our story ukraine must win um and i think there's an un i would say a
00:17:23.440
very sticky unsettling uh convergence between the interests uh not just that people like her represent but
00:17:30.700
also the beneficiaries of these foreign aid packages and like i said if the best line of defense that
00:17:36.220
they got is that were russian disinformation uh how'd that work out for you in 2016 i think we won
00:17:41.940
and uh we'll win again yeah bring it baby uh natalie what's your social media so people can get your
00:17:50.340
work uh in any updates you've been putting up today where they go i'm sure marcy captor will be the
00:17:56.100
first to be seeing what i tweet out as i continue my investigations into her you can go to natalie
00:18:00.900
winters to also join in on the fun it's pretty good you drew uh you drew the ire of a congressman
00:18:08.620
uh in the first day of putting out this uh this series of stuff so good job man thank you sir
00:18:14.440
marcy captor got to understand uh natalie g winters i think she just turned 21 right she's been
00:18:22.700
working with us for years she was an intern over at national pulse worked at national pulse
00:18:27.460
when she was at university of chicago worked for us when she was at university of chicago
00:18:31.180
undergraduate spent most of her time i mean graduate i mean she's acing all the courses at
00:18:35.980
one of the toughest undergraduate programs in the country remember university of chicago is really a
00:18:39.920
graduate school it's got a has an undergraduate uh college but it's really essentially a graduate
00:18:45.920
school for brilliant people uh and natalie's been here you you've seen her work it's just absolutely
00:18:51.060
incredible and now she's trained her guns i can tell you this as we've gone through and looked at
00:18:56.180
the ukraine situation the reason i want her to drill down and we're working with other people are
00:19:00.220
too there is something um and i've said this many times it there's something very dark when we get to
00:19:08.040
the bottom of it and we're not to the bottom of it when we get to the bottom of it it's going to be
00:19:11.840
very dark and a very shameful moment in um in american history of how we how we got in there
00:19:22.260
how we did it what we did who we did it for where the money went all of it what was going on
00:19:28.980
and there's so many complex layers and people are pulling it back every day but just like in the way
00:19:34.720
you know you negotiate the way as you can sell being a war room aficionado or posse member
00:19:40.500
we have a certain house style here and usually that's to slam into something and try to you know
00:19:45.900
drive it in a different direction more to your objectives this is why ukraine right now is so
00:19:51.600
central to all the things we're talking about and think about it for a second the invasion of the
00:19:56.080
southern your southern border an invasion of your country a loss of your sovereignty
00:19:59.760
a loss of really the value of your citizenship is all about your eyes i mean think about the
00:20:05.860
beautiful the as beautiful a state majestic colorado is majestic when you come off of those
00:20:12.980
plains from nebraska and you see the rocky mountains and you get into the rockies or if you come up
00:20:17.040
through um if you go to four corners and come through that way if you come through the the southern
00:20:22.800
part you come through new mexico it is such the rocky mountains there it's so majestic it's really a
00:20:27.880
breathtaking the beauty of the state is is nothing short of breathtaking and the folks out there are among
00:20:33.340
the finest in the united states america think about that for a second it's a because they made a
00:20:38.760
sanctuary state it's the number two state in the country for fentanyl i think fentanyl deaths as
00:20:42.700
congressman bobert told us that's why every town's a border town every state's a border state i said this
00:20:48.640
on we build the wall that was the number one thing we knew with the money we had we can only build x amount
00:20:53.420
of miles of wall this was the time that pelosi really had president trump handcuffed so he couldn't
00:20:58.600
build it but in building that you would make the case and be able to make the case that it's you
00:21:05.640
have to build a wall as a starter you have to seal off the southern border as a starter because of what
00:21:10.720
policy-wise we were allowed to happen and then there's obviously so much more it goes on
00:21:14.320
but the case we made is that every town this is back in 2019 every town's a border town and every
00:21:22.900
state's a border state we were the first ones to say that that was back in 19 we went around the
00:21:26.580
country from arizona to cincinnati ohio up to detroit michigan i gave these big conferences
00:21:35.300
and it came true it was coming true then and and doing that and all the complexity and and having
00:21:43.120
to do these mass deportations where they're they're hiding they're not doing the proper
00:21:47.620
checking and vetting here and they're not doing because they don't want any deportations
00:21:51.880
think about in all of in all of that ukraine ukraine ukraine ukraine ukraine ukraine they
00:21:58.780
were prepared to shut down the government over ukraine they're coming back now with games and
00:22:03.060
you've heard jordan because there's enough worked up congressmen because of you the audience to go
00:22:08.120
back home they say look you know there's not enough cuts in this budget and you understand you're
00:22:12.980
cutting out some programs that may be deserving but we can't afford them but how can you be talking
00:22:16.500
about putting a hundred think of the think of the criminality this is a criminality i want you to
00:22:21.020
think about this think this is criminality the cut what didn't go on in your community
00:22:25.760
what hasn't gone on as far as development what hasn't gone on that you could use help for
00:22:30.620
if there were resources 120 billion dollars have already been spent 120 billion dollars
00:22:41.960
let me repeat that 120 billion dollars in i think one year 120 billion dollars
00:22:50.200
120 billion dollars and they want to this year another 80 billion and now they're panicked should
00:22:58.960
they do the big ass for 24 billion they came out a couple weeks ago i said the first tranche could be
00:23:02.660
24 billion dollars they were shocked mitch mcconnell who thinks he used to be able to run
00:23:07.700
the senate with an iron fist on the weekend we had the big negotiations and of course you know
00:23:15.300
mccarthy came in with the uh with the uh the clean cr essentially they cost him his speakership or one
00:23:21.020
of the many things that cost him his speakership the lies and misrepresentations about that being
00:23:24.600
at least the foremost in people's mind mcconnell sat down at that lunch or sat down on the table and
00:23:30.880
just said hey we're putting in six billion dollars they're going to do six billion dollars the senate
00:23:35.000
republican collaborations who always agree with him didn't kowtow this time didn't kowtow they said you
00:23:43.360

the american people everybody that stole from their people and there ought to be an investigation of
00:25:26.660
what they knew and what they were doing when they send those young kids in ukraine the 50,000
00:25:30.980
combat casualties that the new york times and pentagon tells us they have 50,000 combat casualties
00:25:36.300
okay we're gonna take a short commercial break we'll be back with uh congressman andy biggs we're
00:25:41.800
so proud of congressman biggs he stood up the other day in this historic moment and gave one of these
00:25:47.100
amazing uh speeches he and gates and um good were the prosecution in their case they won their case
00:25:55.120
because uh mccarthy's gone birchgold.com slash the fourth i'm so proud of this the fourth in the
00:26:03.760
series the end of the dollar empire this is the assassination of american prosperity it takes the
00:26:09.760
story up to 1971 a weekend at camp david a three-day weekend from friday to sunday friday they went up
00:26:17.500
with the team and on sunday president nixon addressed the nation and guess we told him hey guess what
00:26:21.900
the gold is no longer convertible u.s dollar is no longer convertible into gold sorry about that
00:26:28.480
did they pass a law no they did not he signed an emergency executive order which by the way
00:26:34.840
in my understanding an executive order can be signed by donald john trump right after high noon on the 20th
00:26:41.340
of january 2025 and rescind that now think about that for a moment on on our way on our path our journey
00:26:50.540
to end the fed go check it out at birchgold.com slash bannon right now one of the heroes andy biggs
00:26:58.760
we're talking about additional ukraine funding is that gonna maybe that's good in your districts
00:27:20.660
but that money's not offset we're not paying for it we haven't designated how we're going to pay for that
00:27:39.540
and i would tell you i could get i will go i could go down the list but i will just tell you
00:27:45.160
why this happens when you don't do your 12 budget bills and you rely ultimately on a cr and i'll get
00:27:52.360
to the calendar in a second what happens is you cannot leverage this administration to actually
00:27:58.960
enforce the border laws that you need to have enforced this is a lawless biden regime they will
00:28:05.980
not enforce border laws and we can pass them till we're blue in the face but until you leverage
00:28:12.780
the budget and the spending you will not see enforcement by these by this this administration
00:28:20.380
so now take a look at the calendar that the that we were just provided last week
00:28:25.320
we're supposed to finish we're supposed to finish by november 3rd our 12 bills
00:28:31.420
by november 17th that's when we're supposed to see that the conference committees have come together
00:28:39.760
both sides and we've resolved this i don't believe that that's going to happen
00:28:44.540
it wasn't going to happen before you were you were betting on the come again at some point i'd
00:28:54.080
urge you to stop betting on the come and bet on the reality that's why i can't support the speaker
00:28:59.360
any longer i'll be voting for the motion to vacate yield back
00:29:03.940
congressman biggs uh you've been a hero to people on this show and throughout the nation
00:29:10.380
not just in your own district of the of the you're straightforward you don't try to play any games
00:29:15.380
you walk things through i thought the speech was incredibly powerful and just the basic way you
00:29:19.760
walked through and made this compelling case and here's what i found and you got to help us out here
00:29:23.980
that's why i want to have you on because the audience is confused
00:29:25.980
the defense and they had so many speakers and some people we really respect up there but a lot that
00:29:32.920
you know or maybe marginal but it was just one happy talk talking point after the other
00:29:38.660
you congressman good and matt gates i mean brought the heat and you did it a much
00:29:44.300
more low-key demeanor to lay out facts but you guys were bringing the heat they were just going
00:29:50.080
through a series of seem like rnc or fox news talking points what was the strategy the strategy
00:29:55.920
the work that you gates and good came up with and the others walk us through what were you doing
00:30:00.260
what were you trying to how were you handling that the prosecution of the case well so for us i i think
00:30:08.420
the overarching theme was to speak to the american people why this is necessary what's going on
00:30:14.480
and give them a glimpse of what's happening and why you have to make some an extraordinary change
00:30:20.360
um in leadership and so matt matt was kind of driving the truck and he said he thought bob should go
00:30:29.300
first which i thought was was true because bob had voted for the that c the first cr bob had voted for
00:30:37.520
the first debt ceiling and so he he had credibility where he could say i was with you guys i was with the
00:30:44.280
speaker but the he's basically devastated he ultimately devastated us on the debt ceiling bill
00:30:51.380
and he and he devastated us again uh the day after on uh of the the cr last friday and so that was
00:30:59.780
important and then matt was matt was doing a good job because matt was kind of laying out his his case
00:31:04.880
and then he was there to take the shots from the other side now the other side was not talking to the
00:31:10.780
american people they weren't they were talking to the body so when garrett graves gets this is is
00:31:16.540
his cell phone up and he takes it up and he's holding it up what he's doing is he's trying to
00:31:22.540
tell the body isn't this awful pernicious uh matt gates is raising money and matt turned it right
00:31:29.820
around on him and said look you guys all raise money from every pack and special interest in
00:31:35.100
washington dc he doesn't matt doesn't get money from packs i good doesn't get money i mean
00:31:39.980
we might get two or three thousand bucks five thousand bucks from a pack or something like that
00:31:44.280
from all the packs and they're all going to be like pro second amendment pro-life packs but they
00:31:49.540
don't give much money and we don't get much money our money comes in from donors who who agree with us
00:31:55.940
and they're sending it in and they didn't like it and so so they're speaking to the the body they're
00:32:01.580
not speaking to the american people and then when i got up i was trying to lay out the case
00:32:04.760
why why you have two massive failings of of this of of speaker mccarthy's administration and they both
00:32:14.600
have led to greater inflation uh failure to get anything done uh you nobody can tell you what
00:32:21.420
we've got done they'll say oh we passed hr1 and hr2 are those laws no they're not laws well why aren't
00:32:27.500
they laws well because the senate won't do anything well why won't the senate do anything the senate won't
00:32:31.440
do anything because the house has failed to do the budget bills and the budget bills are what the
00:32:37.460
founding fathers gave as the leverage against the other house and also against the uh the executive
00:32:46.640
branch they're our check and these guys give up the check every year by doing the cr and don't forget
00:32:52.720
we we walked into a debt ceiling that says there is no debt ceiling and we're not even going to revisit
00:32:57.140
it until january 2025 after the 24 election which by the way both are the things that joe biden said
00:33:03.340
he wanted out of the debt ceiling is it not the deficit by the way article today so you got the the
00:33:11.520
one month at a high from uh 2001 i think the three month the high from 2000 uh the the three year five
00:33:20.300
year ten year at highs from right before the financial crash in 2007 which is always a great sign
00:33:25.340
the 30s at a at a at a 25 year high the 30 year mortgage is now i think the biggest the highest
00:33:32.800
has been since 2000 people are getting crushed uh bob bob doll who's the chief investment officer of a
00:33:39.860
huge head fund was on fox business today and this guy i've seen before he's a very methodical guy he's
00:33:45.380
not flashy he said look uh i've done some basic numbers here and unless we get control now of this
00:33:52.320
spending and i mean now with real cuts in a real plan we are potentially heading in the short term
00:33:58.760
he says by 24 by he thinks third quarter 24 to what could potentially be a great depression
00:34:05.280
and this guy is no he's not an alarmist what i think this audience admired most about you in this
00:34:11.540
entire thing because the war and posse stayed up to three in the morning and watched the amendments
00:34:15.240
they wanted to see the process they wanted to see the amendments process every time you stood up on an
00:34:20.000
amendment you would give in your five minutes you would give a minute 90 seconds or two minutes to
00:34:25.000
lay out the amendment and the argument then you would always pivot you were like uh cato the elder
00:34:30.860
right about carthage because he would end everything and oh and carthage must be destroyed
00:34:35.980
you you pivoted to cato the elder and every time you came right back to the same top you came right
00:34:41.060
back to the spending you came right back to the to the debt where are we is this is this fight at the
00:34:46.480
end of the day get down to crystallize over that um i'm just going to tell you i it should okay steve
00:34:56.500
it really should will it i don't know um sometimes this stuff gets lost i mean these guys these guys
00:35:04.300
are more interested in in um you know talking points how do what can you give to talking points
00:35:10.380
in your district and really um steve what you and i are talking about is the existential uh nature of
00:35:17.780
the crisis we are in and my colleagues are not and as long as they refuse to acknowledge that we are in
00:35:23.800
an existential crisis i i want to bring this back to something i didn't say this on the floor i don't
00:35:28.820
i don't remember saying this uh during the amendments fight but here's here it is studies are really clear
00:35:34.380
when an empire goes down and fails the two things happen it loses its geographic integrity in other
00:35:42.420
words its borders are obliterated our borders are obliterated we don't have a southern border anymore
00:35:46.680
it's just gone so that's for step one the second thing is you lose control of your economy which
00:35:52.640
devastates excuse me you lose control of your currency which devastates your economy that's where
00:35:58.080
we are those two things right there that those are necessary conditions to for destruction of an empire
00:36:05.720
um and quite frankly unless we cure it they will also be sufficient um criterion for our for our
00:36:14.900
nation to be destroyed that's why it's so important to get hold of the federal spending and those bills
00:36:22.360
it is the last hope to actually pivot and control and leverage against this administration
00:36:29.380
and by the way i was i did another hit earlier today and the and the host actually read a statement
00:36:35.080
and the statement said that uh you know he's from he was quoting from the wall street journal that
00:36:39.880
that if we don't uh uh immediately take care of our debt debt and deficit then we're going to go right
00:36:47.820
into a depression or something like that i can't remember the exact words but and then the guy's asking me
00:36:52.120
so why well you know why are you so fixated on this i'm like you just read it why
00:36:56.000
stop that didn't happen tell me that didn't happen it happened it happened yeah i mean that's i mean
00:37:06.360
but but yeah i want to go back because these people are plenty smart it's not that they're dumb you got
00:37:12.660
a lot of lawyers i know you got a lot of lawyers you got a lot of businessmen men and women these are
00:37:17.800
not stupid people and they've come up to a system some like eli crane have come out of kind of
00:37:21.880
nowhere to win a house seat but most of those have been a state legislatures like you have
00:37:26.240
they've worked their way through the system or been mayors have been county supervisors
00:37:29.380
this is not their first rodeo why is it just the way the system is that does not want them to focus
00:37:37.580
on it because it's too overwhelming why will they not just look at what the central problem we have
00:37:42.700
to get around if we don't solve this problem the country's over now there's so many other things
00:37:48.180
are important but this is absolutely existential what does the conservative side not get about
00:37:54.240
that well i'm gonna i'm gonna give you a couple of reasons why so i think i think i believe in path
00:38:02.680
dependence i believe in increasing returns and what's happened these guys have built up regimes and
00:38:07.500
institutions and rules that keep them going down the same path right so they believe in that and and so
00:38:14.940
they get elected and the leadership immediately goes to them and tries to co-op them they tried
00:38:19.060
to co-op me um and actually uh before i got elected and then when they realized they couldn't they
00:38:24.680
actually spent money against me to try to overturn my election so so this is what happens and it is the
00:38:29.980
it is a uniparty and i know people said oh yeah you don't mean uniparty i do mean uniparty i mean
00:38:35.380
the the the k street lobbyists the people who leave here from congress and go out and make millions of
00:38:41.260
dollars as lobbyists after they leave congress i mean all of this they build these regimes and
00:38:46.320
institutions so you keep going down the same path and when when you begin to exit and all we've done
00:38:53.480
now steve with this with this change in guard here is we've actually stepped on the path for a short-term
00:38:58.720
exit the short-term pain is high and nobody likes to experience the short-term pain but the long-term
00:39:05.740
rewards are so optimal and beneficial that i think it's important to take the pain it's like getting
00:39:12.420
surgery to be healed the surgery is going to in the recovery may be uh dramatic but maybe in the long
00:39:19.520
term you're in a much better shape but they get caught up in this and the uniparty actually controls
00:39:25.760
this stuff um the media reinforces it uh the the the donor class um that gives to leadership they
00:39:35.940
give to leadership why do they give to leadership instead of giving to me they give to leadership
00:39:40.820
because they think it's rent seeking they're trying to get the rents they're they're trying to pay the
00:39:46.520
rents and and get what they want and and so it's so easy to fall into that trap and so difficult to
00:39:54.160
stand out there look what happens to us i mean um uh we we we get threat we we're called every name
00:40:01.120
in the book which is the big deal i don't care about that really and i also don't care that the
00:40:05.300
packs have you know they they don't they don't give to me i mean they don't give to me they don't give
00:40:10.180
to gates they don't give to good that's fine but what they're trying to do is they will try to ruin
00:40:16.120
your character they'll try to ruin your life look what they've done to matt gates they've tried to
00:40:20.100
ruin his life look what they're doing to donald trump they'll try to ruin his life
00:40:23.440
uh they they've come out and said things about me that are just blatantly false and untrue
00:40:28.140
uh i am now stigmatized in the i will be stigmatized in the history books forever as being
00:40:33.380
an insurrectionist blah blah blah but the point is they want power and control when i say they i mean
00:40:39.980
the uniparty elite it doesn't matter which party you're in it's the elite and they are willing to
00:40:44.380
give up this country for it and my colleagues because because of the most ephemeral things like oh i want
00:40:50.980
to be on this committee or i want to be a a chairman or a subcommittee chairman they will give
00:40:55.880
it up and that's that's the regimes and rules institutions i'm talking about they they get
00:41:01.640
caught up in that instead of saying wait a second we have an existential crisis that must be addressed
00:41:07.540
and they refuse to address it uh steve they refuse to address it which i can only mean i only guess
00:41:13.520
means that they they don't fully uh understand it a lot of them give it lip service by the way
00:41:18.140
they they give lip service to it but when it comes time to stand up and say no mas i will not
00:41:25.240
be participating participating in this one more time we will stop it there will not be another
00:41:30.800
continuing resolution if there has to be a one-day shutdown or a hundred-day shutdown so we can actually
00:41:37.160
bring the spending under control they will not do it they will not do it
00:41:42.920
as you sit here uh today uh not just the leadership race but everything around that
00:41:50.480
knowing the clock is ticking for the cr and you you laid out the case you said guys we have to finish
00:41:55.720
our work on the 13th on the third uh the whole thing's gonna be done but the 17th that's two weeks
00:42:01.820
i think that i think they're coming together and hammering out that joint deal may take a day or two
00:42:06.940
longer so where are we you got a couple minutes here where are we in the picking a speaker in the
00:42:11.720
middle of you should be working this weekend they're not because the establishment wanted you
00:42:15.940
guys out of town so they can work some evil plots out so where are we in all this well um actually
00:42:23.500
you've got a number of candidates steve and i think there will be clarity about who is a viable
00:42:30.920
candidate by tuesday morning and then by tuesday evening i thought i hope it didn't i don't care if it
00:42:36.700
takes till two in the morning uh i think you'll get uh a candidate one way or the other that i hope
00:42:43.940
will be acceptable to 218 and hopefully will guard and protect and recognize the existential crisis
00:42:50.480
we're in and then i i believe fully that by wednesday midnight we'll have a new speaker we will
00:42:55.460
have voted on that speaker one way or the other i think this is going to go through your your of the
00:43:00.580
school of thought this is going to go through quickly yeah i know i know a lot of people say
00:43:04.900
oh we'll never get there but you know what um i i think that that the appetite by my colleagues to
00:43:13.020
stay around and fight i i haven't seen a lot of fighting so many of them for you know the only time
00:43:18.500
they've ever fought is to defend kevin mccarthy um and that's that's no longer the case i think that
00:43:23.740
they're going to have to do some self-reflection and i think they're going to hopefully the most of them
00:43:28.920
because i think many of them actually understand the crisis but hopefully they will stand up and
00:43:33.880
say it's actually time to do it and then we'll get through more quickly steve than i than i think
00:43:38.700
many people are predicting the motion of vacate was really the grassroots damocles sword
00:43:44.700
over the head of the uh of the establishment where do you people look to you for guidance where do you
00:43:50.420
stand on the motion of vacate you got to keep it where it is um you know people like jim jordan
00:43:56.460
steve scolise they're willing to keep it where it is it has to stay where it is it is it really is
00:44:03.380
in in a time of crisis it it becomes uh important i i do think it's interesting that that the moderates
00:44:11.000
who think that jim jordan is all you know this conservative icon uh they want to make it harder
00:44:16.000
to remove him if he does something they don't like i i do find that to be ironic um but i do think
00:44:21.660
that that the the posse needs to let people know you got to keep that that that turned out to be
00:44:28.900
far more valuable than i ever would have given it credit uh for to be honest with you uh no that was
00:44:35.700
it was incredible that was quite powerful uh president trump is and we talked about today put up
00:44:41.280
president trump on an interim basis for 100 days he would step down uh one on the one-year date before
00:44:47.520
his inauguration in 2025 this january so it'll be 100 days and get us through hammer through all the
00:44:53.280
deals no no cr no omnibus get that done get the investigation on track uh your your thought people
00:44:59.880
look to you for guidance your thoughts about president trump potentially as an interim well i i think that
00:45:05.820
when he shows up on tuesday which he said he's going to do he will he will provide some clarity for
00:45:11.060
some people who might otherwise not have clarity uh uh he is the leader of the party uh i i don't
00:45:18.220
want him to be frank with you the guys the guys in multiple lawsuits and criminal uh cases i don't
00:45:24.420
want him to be distracted by the the lunacy of congress uh because i want him to i want him to be
00:45:31.000
the president i want to be the president of the united states i'm looking forward to campaigning with
00:45:34.980
him and going with him wherever you know i know people are gonna uh people have already nominated
00:45:40.760
and he's already in the queue to be nominated um i think it'll be a secret ballot i think some of my
00:45:46.380
colleagues would absolutely say say no but but what it will provide steve is a real incentive and
00:45:51.880
clarity i believe for people uh you know there's going to be people that it's an incentive to not vote
00:45:58.020
but for many people be incentive to to support his ideas um but i think you know i don't think that
00:46:05.200
he's going to be the speaker but i do think he's going to be the president and he'll be a great
00:46:09.940
president again i think you're correct i think the specter of trump will act like the gallows for
00:46:18.360
many of your colleagues and get there'll be a lot this will be quite clear there'll be quite there'll
00:46:22.680
be a lot of focus there will not be any wasted time i i hate to use this uh crass terms go ahead but
00:46:29.820
