Bannon's War Room - WarRoom Battleground EP 698： Holding The Maga Line On Foreign Engagement

00:00:00.000 this is the primal scream of a dying regime pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on

00:00:26.140 these people here's not got a free shot all these networks lying about the people the people have

00:00:32.740 had a belly full of it i know you don't like hearing that i know you try to do everything

00:00:36.500 the world to stop that but you're not going to stop it it's going to happen and where do people

00:00:40.080 like that go to share the big line mega media i wish in my soul i wish that any of these people

00:00:47.900 had a conscience ask yourself what is my task and what is my purpose if that answer is to save

00:00:55.560 my country this country will be saved war room here's your host stephen k band

00:01:03.040 thursday 30 january yuraviller 2025 um we're going to do tomorrow we're going to get highlights from

00:01:11.060 the days because it was so combative but i've got uh three of my favorite people up i want to spend

00:01:15.780 as much time with them as possible naomi wolf joins us um naomi you've been here since the beginning of

00:01:21.980 this but the the why was this such an important day this this part of this movement called make

00:01:26.540 america healthy again this kind of partner with with uh maga why is this so important and why was

00:01:33.520 bobby kennedy today i'm gonna get into all the information warfare and your specialists and how

00:01:38.480 it played out but just overall the the framing of this why was this so important and why did it appear

00:01:45.040 that liberal and progressive democrats came at him so viciously ma'am uh well we've all been waiting

00:01:54.180 for this day for so long and ever since um rfk jr joined forces with president trump and maga and

00:02:03.700 maha became a thing which you know i've been advocating for as long as i could um it's in you know it's in

00:02:12.720 historic realignment uh for americans it creates a potential political force that could change the

00:02:19.820 landscape and dominate the political landscape for our lifetimes you know if everyone plays their cards

00:02:25.260 the way they should um and also this was the bottleneck right this was the one opportunity

00:02:32.320 that rfk jr's many very big enemies had to take you know take him out metaphorically to derail him

00:02:40.580 to rattle him to roll out whatever dirt they might have found on him to um drag his name you know into

00:02:48.300 the mud even more fully than they and legacy media already have and and leave him kind of wounded on 0.72

00:02:54.440 the battlefield um or flipping it around this was the opportunity this is the opportunity that this

00:03:01.180 incredibly maligned warrior um will have had to show america um and show the senate and show the

00:03:13.040 senate's constituents that he's a credible reasonable person with authority as opposed to the bizarre

00:03:20.220 caricature that legacy media has sought to make of him um ever since he appeared so prominently on the

00:03:27.040 scene and certainly ever since he ran for president himself and even more when he joined forces with

00:03:32.800 president trump which is the scariest thing you know the deep state the globalists the you know pharma evil

00:03:39.280 uh cartel all the bad guys can imagine um so this was a you know this was a decisive battle right this is a

00:03:50.240 a turning point um and that's the big picture if you want me to analyze how i think it went i'm happy to

00:03:57.080 but uh this was the kind of culmination of many many months not just of campaigning and preparation

00:04:03.860 but no doubt of training of this nominee um perfection of soundbites lobbying behind the scenes

00:04:11.200 i know he was escorted to meet with many many of the people who have been grilling him and it's it's

00:04:16.680 right it's not over i mean it hangs by a thread uh there's a tiny handful of votes that are going

00:04:23.380 to decide it one way or another and also you know big big picture millions of americans really care

00:04:30.320 about what happens here millions of americans who didn't have a voice didn't have a champion

00:04:35.100 all those moms those millions of moms and dads who are worried sick about their kids worried sick about 1.00

00:04:40.580 the food supply the pharmaceutical supply how to have a healthy life in the united states of america how to

00:04:46.020 survive um found a voice in rfk jr and so this is kind of an x-ray of the beating heart of this

00:04:55.840 institution and if it can absorb a truth teller you said metaphorically trying to kill it i mean hey that

00:05:04.520 there was some viciousness out there they so let's let's put your hat on as a information war field

00:05:11.300 commander and you know an expert in this did we win this did we win today and are able to push this

00:05:19.080 project forward because they came at him with the guns on sheath i mean look cash took some incoming

00:05:26.380 tulsi took some incoming but there is a level of viciousness coming at bobby kennedy i mean they were

00:05:32.660 unmasked what's your what's your take on how we did um so i think i think rfk jr did creditably right

00:05:42.360 it wasn't a home run it was a solid i'm going to say bb plus from him but but that kind of doesn't

00:05:49.780 matter except that he delivered a solid b plus he didn't do anything wrong um there are no big

00:05:55.500 revelations uh there were no skeletons in his closet that were unveiled to great fanfare

00:06:01.840 they tried to get him on some babysitter issue and he stomped that right down uh and at the end he

00:06:09.980 very brilliantly sort of let loose you know having been patient for a day and a half and told senator

00:06:16.000 sanders that he was the biggest farmer you know on capitol hill i mean essentially he said that um and

00:06:22.460 senator sanders were like no no no no no no in this incantatory way as if as if by saying no no no

00:06:28.500 it would make those millions of dollars in pharma money uh that he received in 2020 go away um but

00:06:34.540 that's not what's most important i mean the fact that he did nothing wrong right he did fine he didn't

00:06:40.560 do the the soaring heights of perfection that you know would have been an a plus but he did absolutely

00:06:46.840 fine all the way through uh the reason it's a win for us and this depends on what we do now and

00:06:52.440 you notice i'm saying we now because i have no more reservations um is that they impaled

00:06:58.440 themselves on his spear over and over and over and over like the democrats who went after him went

00:07:05.920 after him in such a visibly cynical bought prostitute-y nefarious self-inflicted way that i think that you

00:07:17.900 know if if the magamaha team plays this right the democrats will never recover from it again and

00:07:24.300 again and again rfk jr tried to talk about children's health and chronic disease and again and again and

00:07:31.040 again the the questions and hectoring and lecturing and badgering and shrieking from various uh democratic

00:07:39.380 senators including some i really used to respect like ron wyden um showed that they were

00:07:45.900 worshipping vaccines in a way that was almost pathological that they wouldn't be swayed from

00:07:53.360 their fealty to those pharma millions this was clear to everybody that's why i say an x-ray just

00:07:58.900 stripped any veneer off of anything else they wouldn't be deterred and they were saying things

00:08:04.220 that were literally nonsensical like at the end when senator cassidy was basically saying tell me

00:08:10.280 you will swear to tell the moms of america with your giant voice that vaccines don't cause autism

00:08:17.400 and they they were not being scientific right they weren't looking at the science they weren't looking

00:08:22.480 at the kids they were literally praying at the feet of a god that they've erected called pharma but

00:08:29.220 specifically called vaccines and and everyone saw this and you also saw people um again shrieking i mean

00:08:38.060 toby rogers whom i love who's a uh sub stack author said you know some of them seemed um vaccine

00:08:45.560 injured because they couldn't manage their emotions they weren't in charge of modulating their emotions

00:08:53.300 they were hysterical they were frothing the mouth more so on day one than day two but also on day two

00:08:59.140 and so this was the display right and so what i would do if i was advising these people is i would

00:09:04.620 almost take the um spotlight off of rfk jr and his performance and turn it right on every one of

00:09:12.020 those moments in which the democrats lost control or changed the subject when he said wonderfully to

00:09:18.880 that one senator um is science dangerous you know like are you scared of science and she changed the 1.00

00:09:24.960 subject right which is what they're so good at or again um senator sanders going no don't talk to me

00:09:30.640 about pharma millions right or you know over and over people demanding that he kissed the ring of

00:09:36.360 pharma kissed the ring of pharma that's what happened that's what we all saw now the trouble

00:09:40.460 is all of america didn't sit through both days of hearings like i did so it's up to the trump team

00:09:45.920 and the rfk jr team to lift out those moments and tell that story really showcase guys this is what

00:09:52.620 you've got you know making decisions for your public health on capitol hill and this was the guy who

00:09:58.080 tried to talk to everyone about a poison food supply and sick kids

00:10:02.200 was it evident you know you and nicole shanahan were both pretty big players when did this i know

00:10:09.880 the revolution came to you a couple years ago but i think it was so shocking just the unhinged

00:10:17.960 viciousness of this and it's got to be more than money it's got to be more than just big farmers

00:10:23.460 bottom off what is it because there's a personal vindictiveness as a personal some hatred it's just

00:10:31.740 something that came through that's pretty sure look they went after cash they went after tulsi they

00:10:36.580 went after pete hexit they went after you know they go after these folks they went after matt gates

00:10:41.340 matt gates may be borderline but with this it was on on this on the stuff about pharma and and

00:10:49.040 vaccines and what they say is science what why is it so vicious why is it why is the vitriol so just

00:10:56.480 up in your grill it was really extraordinary wasn't it it was um it was almost as if they were it was

00:11:03.760 almost ritualistic honestly it was like they were all kind of spitting and and cursing uh something

00:11:11.260 that they wanted to turn into anathema right like something that would be cast out into outer darkness

00:11:17.860 um well that's a great question and you're right to notice that because it wasn't very professional

00:11:23.460 right it wasn't very statesman like it wasn't even like mean girls it was something deep and nasty um

00:11:31.300 all right i'm gonna go there i mean i think it was almost it was almost like a spiritual battle in that

00:11:36.960 room and it was like there's rfk jr and whatever you know whatever his he's not a perfect person he none of

00:11:45.300 this is he's not even a perfect um political figure you know i wish he would always if i were

00:11:51.820 advising him i'd say you know say those million moms every other word right um i mean he lets himself

00:11:58.240 get drawn a little bit into rabbit holes that are not good for him when he's just kind of stick to all

00:12:04.020 the women and men outside of america who are worried about their kids like that would be the winning play 0.52

00:12:09.220 always but nonetheless this is someone who's really walking in truth and everyone can feel it right

00:12:15.420 they've tried everything to knock him off base and this is he's one of these people and there are some

00:12:23.260 of them in the world you know who have a mission he knows what his mission is and he's gonna do it

00:12:29.520 and he's gonna do it till he drops dead you know it may be 120 and and i feel that these days with

00:12:35.600 with president trump as well i didn't used to um and you know pete there's no way to hide that you

00:12:41.280 know it's it's a a stillness or a light and you know god's on his side i mean i'm just gonna say

00:12:47.200 that and so you had this room in which he's not the one who was cornered all those evil doers

00:12:53.060 were cornered because he he being there bearing witness whether he wins or not forces them to

00:13:02.780 recognize whether it's on a conscious level or on a spiritual level i'm the one who's walking with

00:13:10.460 the serpent you know i'm the one who took the money to hurt the children i'm the one who's trafficking in

00:13:16.380 lies and that's i think that's why they became so unhinged and couldn't manage themselves i think he

00:13:22.820 reminded them of their idealistic earlier selves um and the gulf between where he stood in relation to

00:13:31.440 the truth and caring about kids and where they know they've gone and they know that he knows

00:13:37.580 they've gone which is why that last exchange with uh senator sanders was so interesting and fun to

00:13:43.100 observe i i think that's what led them to lose control and to have that range of hectoring bullying

00:13:51.820 um hostile nasty almost spitting uh reactions to him it certainly wasn't logical you know and if

00:14:00.620 they were right and he was wrong they should just rest on their facts and present them right that's

00:14:05.720 not what we saw we saw it really reminded me of that um that the uh play about the salem witch trial

00:14:14.620 um where you know a whole community becomes infected with with mania um i mean it reminded me

00:14:23.280 of it was like a mass hysteria but it was also kind of like a mass exorcism um because no one has held

00:14:31.120 a mirror up to their untruth and their their cravenness about this and and they weren't free

00:14:36.800 people right his questioners they were forced to say over and over nonsensical things like 1.00

00:14:42.220 will you swear and to cast the moms of america as you know idiotic buffoons right will you swear 1.00

00:14:51.000 to restore the confidence of the moms of america in a system that they've completely seen through 1.00

00:14:57.840 because thoroughly corrupt and were part of that corruption will you swear to use your voice to

00:15:03.280 hoodwink them that's what they were reduced to saying and they had to because of the money that

00:15:08.820 they've taken um and it may be that they had to because also that they're so scared of him and being so

00:15:14.340 hostile to him because of the crimes they may have committed which we can't know

00:15:18.320 that he'll be in charge of finding out uh if he does get nominated i'm sorry if he does get confirmed

00:15:24.440 and has access to all those files

00:15:26.360 she refers to arthur miller's the crucible for the salem witch trials i think it's a perfect perfect 1.00

00:15:33.600 perfect analogy naomi where did can we get i want to talk i'll talk to you offline i do want to do a

00:15:38.860 compilation and maybe we'd come back and have commentary we really go through it because it's

00:15:43.200 something to behold and i think you're 1000 correct ma'am where do people go to get you naomi

00:15:47.960 thank you come to daily clout uh support us there and i'm over on substack with outspoken

00:15:55.760 thank you very much it's so nice to see you all in the posse again you you are kind of outspoken i

00:16:03.160 think that's a pretty good title naomi wolf thank you ma'am thank you

00:16:07.000 don't have a pretty good punch there let me go i'm gonna change this up a little bit we get to

00:16:12.200 uh natalie in a second let me go to i've got uh jim rickards jim we asked you to dial in today to

00:16:18.720 the uh to the tulsi gabbard and to the uh cash patel i want to take given your intelligence experience

00:16:24.000 tulsi gabbard they came after her not quite with the unsheathed viciousness against bobby kennedy

00:16:31.360 but it was pretty rough i thought she did fantastic give me give me your your un-expringated 1.00

00:16:37.960 opinion on this yeah i agree i think she did extremely well and a lot of it was her demeanor

00:16:44.140 uh she was very calm she was very composed i mean the senators are always trying to get you to take

00:16:49.400 the bait and ask you these uh gotcha questions and yes no what's the answer so she didn't take the

00:16:55.080 bait on that she gave very thoughtful answers so i thought just i i give her a lot of points just for

00:16:59.220 her demeanor by the way it's a good trait to have if you're going to be director of uh director of

00:17:03.800 national intelligence um they they came after on a number of points uh one of them of course was uh

00:17:09.400 syria uh the thing with syria meeting with bashar al-assad as i said last night that's what spies do

00:17:16.440 you're supposed to go meet with you know whether it's friend or enemy or however you regard them

00:17:20.260 you're supposed to go meet with people like that heads of state uh the opportunity just to talk to a

00:17:25.040 foreign leader and come back with uh whatever to be collected that's that's what spies do so that was

00:17:30.000 a job well done by her but why was she there why was she doing she was doing it because

00:17:36.040 the accusation was being thrown around that uh assad used chemical weapons against his own people

00:17:41.300 now that was called into question i wasn't there i don't know if he used chemical weapons or not i do

00:17:46.740 know that prior to the war in iraq uh the intelligence community i i'm i don't think they totally lied

00:17:53.960 although the white house probably lied but the intelligence community badly bungled the

00:17:59.320 assessment of wmd so um weapons of mass destruction so when your track record is um you couldn't figure

00:18:06.560 out if saddam hussein had weapons of mass destruction or not in iraq and in fact they they ran a cia ran a

00:18:13.760 couple operations that were extremely well done where iraqis living in the united states went back

00:18:18.920 and talked to relatives and gathered information there is their lives and they came back and said he

00:18:23.160 doesn't have them and then inside the intelligence community they said no they were just lying to you

00:18:28.160 he actually does i mean that was that was badly bungled so for for tulsi to tulsi gabbard to question

00:18:33.660 uh some assessment of the use of weapons of mass destruction which is what chemical weapons are

00:18:38.200 that's not unreasonable and like i say she got to meet with head of state so i i consider that uh

00:18:42.560 you know from a uh clandestine not even clandestine but just an operations point of view you know mission

00:18:47.860 accomplished uh job well done but they were beating her up on that but that wasn't the main thing then

00:18:52.700 they went on and on uh you know they have what uh nancy pelosi calls the rap smear they put they

00:18:58.140 just smear you and then they wrap you in and they just repeat it and repeat it and you get branded

00:19:03.160 you know even substances irrelevant at that point so they they ran the you know the russian asset playbook

00:19:09.380 you know you agree with putin so you're a russian asset you know russia russia russia kind of thing

00:19:14.700 here's the thing i studied this very closely i've spent an enormous amount of time on the ukraine war

00:19:19.160 putin's analysis of the war in ukraine is exactly right russia is winning they're making uh progress

00:19:26.720 that on the ground slowly that's the russian way of war but they're they're making progress

00:19:30.180 ukrainian armed forces are collapsing um they russia has basically laid off a little bit they haven't

00:19:36.280 done everything they're capable of doing because they're hoping that trump reaches out that's a

00:19:40.380 whole separate issue as to how the white house is handling it but when when tulsi gabbard says i think

00:19:45.920 putin's got this right or i agree with putin that doesn't make you a putin puppet it means you're

00:19:50.940 pretty good intelligence analyst i would say the people who've got it wrong are the u.s intelligence

00:19:55.540 community and they've got a lot of things wrong over the years and certainly the the press you know

00:19:59.760 new york times and others are just printing lies and basically reprinting ukrainian propaganda

00:20:03.820 so uh but to say so so putin by the way was an intelligence officer kgb officer in east germany

00:20:10.800 when putin gets it right and you look at it objectively not pro-russia i'm i'm pro-united

00:20:17.280 states i'm not pro-russia but i am a object i'm an objective analyst when i look at putin i look at

00:20:23.660 what's going on on the ground from other sources in the uk and romania and elsewhere and say you know

00:20:28.700 putin's got this right that doesn't make you a putin asset it just means you're a good intelligence

00:20:32.320 analyst so i give her credit for that but again they try to beat her up on that that's one of these 0.91

00:20:36.200 smear wraps i think the the 702 point that basically um section of statute that gives

00:20:42.640 the nsa the ability to do mass collections of foreign intelligence that's probably okay i mean

00:20:50.580 they certainly do it but the problem is it's been abused because if an american is talking to someone

00:20:56.660 in you know basically anywhere else in the world doesn't have to be russia it could be europe or

00:21:00.800 anywhere else and they say well we're only monitoring foreign communications yeah but if an

00:21:04.980 americans are the other end you're monitoring americans and that was the abuse and we saw that

00:21:09.980 in um the the original russia hoax in trump's first term um she wanted to she wanted to modify that

00:21:16.100 she wanted some warrant requirements she wanted some witness requirements etc to get a fisa warrant

00:21:20.880 to be able to do that um and the uh the you know the deep state is completely opposed to that

00:21:25.700 she's modified her views um just enough on that so i think i think she's okay there uh and the fourth

00:21:32.560 one is uh uh well sorry the fourth one is the war in ukraine we talked a little bit about that

00:21:37.500 uh i think the key vote is going to be lindsey graham by the way i think she's going to be confirmed 0.58

00:21:43.180 but it's because hang on hang on hang on hang on hang on let's not cover our votes i want to go back

00:21:49.940 and we're going to hold you through the break and we got natalie um going to give us an update from

00:21:53.400 the way house um okay was a big part of this because what and the parts that i could watch

00:22:02.620 because we did the presence thing also and then we had i had a couple meetings here where i got back

00:22:06.300 and sold some highlight reels they're incensed about her position in the ukraine war which is the

00:22:12.700 war room's position i think president trump's position the people that thought with mersheimer that

00:22:17.580 they're going to lead the ukrainian people down to their destruction the the the off the unhinged 1.00

00:22:22.900 attacks on her i thought about the ukraine this was really more than just intelligence and they kept

00:22:28.460 saying she's not qualified she's not on top of the material this this really became kind of a

00:22:33.160 referendum on the ukraine war did it not i mean you could tell they were hitting that hard sir it it

00:22:38.800 it did um you're absolutely right but but here's the thing the director of national intelligence

00:22:43.340 is not going to decide policy in ukraine so she's against the war i'm against the war i'd like to

00:22:49.700 see as a piece and you could have it if uh with a couple phone calls but um we haven't seen that

00:22:54.640 forthcoming yet but this the conduct of the war in ukraine is going to be decided in the white house

00:23:00.680 national security council mike walsh pete hagseth from the department of defense uh you know trump

00:23:06.920 himself of course um i think jd vance will weigh in and uh and a few others but that and and and

00:23:12.880 and marco rubio but that team uh state department defense department the white house national security

00:23:18.440 council they are going to decide the course of the war in ukraine the intelligence community i mean

00:23:23.660 apart from you know clandestine operations and some other stuff that goes on um they're they don't

00:23:29.880 they're not supposed to decide policy they're supposed to provide good intelligence they don't always do

00:23:34.100 that but they're supposed to provide good intelligence and then the policymakers make the

00:23:37.260 decision so the odni will be will play a very important role in terms of coordinating the

00:23:42.720 product of the intelligence community in the president's daily brief but they're not going to

00:23:46.320 decide policy so if you're really but don't but then but but but jim isn't that the problem today is

00:23:52.000 that they're terrible at their main function which is the collection of intelligence and and

00:23:56.980 counter operations but they're they're fantastic on on what they see as policy this how the deep state the

00:24:02.800 interagency process is the way the cia controls the deal and and dni's always look the other way

00:24:09.580 isn't that isn't that the heart of the matter yeah yeah you're right they they bungle the the job

00:24:15.100 they're supposed to they bungle the intelligence collections in many cases where they come up with

00:24:18.580 they get good collections and they do lousy analysis because they ignore what's in front of them but um

00:24:24.440 they're not supposed to decide policy but they do you're right steve they basically twist the

00:24:28.940 intelligence collections and twist intelligence analysis in such a way that it steers policy in a

00:24:35.100 certain direction and nobody was uh more uh more uh guilty of that than kind of what was going on with

00:24:41.180 uh um with iran with uh with brennan so uh so yeah it's it's a serious problem and i think tulsi will

00:24:48.500 gabbert will put an end to that and perform the role you're supposed to do which is be a really good

00:24:53.820 collector good good analyst to present the president with the best possible intelligence

00:24:58.220 and then let them let them decide policy but but my point was if you're a warmonger and you want the

00:25:03.860 war to continue you're going to have to basically like you're going to have to rely on mike waltz and

00:25:08.560 and mark rubio and hegseth uh more so than the intelligence community right uh i want to hold you

00:25:15.820 through the break i want to do snowden why is snowden give me a minute here before we go to break

00:25:22.320 and we'll bring you back why is snowden so big and there's so many questions about her relationship

00:25:27.940 with snowden her thinking of snowden yeah they turned into a legal seminar i said they said he's

00:25:32.980 a traitor he's a traitor we want you to say he's a traitor and she said he broke the law uh treason is

00:25:38.100 a very specific crime it gets capital punishment so you can be a lawbreaker without being guilty of 0.95

00:25:44.620 treason now you know i i don't want to judge the case i think i think snowden's getting uh the worst

00:25:49.960 punishment i can think of which is having to spend your whole life in russia and not being able to

00:25:53.040 get back to the united states that's what happened to kim philby by the way i've been to russia it's 1.00

00:25:56.500 beautiful country but it was nice to come home and he can't come home so he's kind of in a prison of

00:26:01.400 his own uh own making but um they the the real objection to snowden is not the treason claim it's

00:26:07.840 that he exposed collections on u.s citizens and that was what that's what they're upset about because

00:26:14.420 they do that all the time i want to pick i want to pick back up on that very point that's that's

00:26:19.160 that's the heart of that matter short commercial break jim rickerts here with tulsi about tulsi and

00:30:13.280 coming to our money in our bank accounts first think back to 9-11 shortly after the government pushed

00:30:19.380 through the patriot act this gave the government power to spy on innocent americans by monitoring our

00:30:25.160 phone and email and tracking our movement across the internet now jim records editor of the independent

00:30:31.460 financial newsletter strategic intelligence and new york times best-selling author is warning about a

00:30:37.260 coming event that could elevate this governmental surveillance to a terrifying new level in fact

00:30:43.000 some of the guests i've had on the war room believe that the government will soon expand their powers

00:30:47.840 to track our every move if we say the wrong things on social media donate to the wrong causes buy

00:30:54.620 firearms or even vote maga the government may be able to shut us out of our bank accounts

00:31:00.220 i can't say for sure if this will happen but it's an interesting and dire warning fortunately jim

00:31:07.060 records an american patriot and friend of mine has made it his mission to educate us on what he believes

00:31:12.640 is coming and how to protect yourself from the possibility of programmable money watch jim's warning

00:31:20.020 video now before it's censored like i've been in the past go to records war room.com that's records

00:31:27.100 war room.com now to see the video

00:31:30.060 war room here's your host stephen k bannon

00:31:38.740 okay um birchgold.com entered the dollar empire modern monetary theory birchgold.com slash bannon lots

00:31:49.220 to talk about there tomorrow so snowden it's quite complicated snowden but the reason they hate him

00:31:57.920 and i'm not saying the reason the reason they hate him is that he does he disclosed that they were

00:32:04.120 spying on american citizens is that it jim records that's exactly right and and tulsi gabbard is not

00:32:11.800 supporting you know leakers or or traitors or anything of the kind she's supporting american civil

00:32:17.960 rights and civil liberties and so it's a two-sided coin and again you don't have to defend snowden

00:32:23.320 to condemn uh what he exposed and that's what that's where she was coming from uh she cares

00:32:30.400 about american liberties about civil rights about not being put under surveillance without warrant

00:32:34.600 without due process of law and that was her um i want to call it a qualification she she didn't want 1.00

00:32:40.640 to go so far as to say it was a traitor she did say it was a lawbreaker which is pretty clear um but

00:32:46.380 uh but she was exposing something they don't want to expose they rely on that ability to i mean the

00:32:51.280 whole idea since 1947 the cia is not allowed to spy on americans well tell me they don't i mean they

00:32:56.980 they do it all the time but they have uh you know they have channels to the fbi and lots of ways of

00:33:01.380 doing it and this is just one more channel and she's trying to blow it up and and uh i think she's

00:33:06.700 right well she is right so um so that'll take time but she it got kind of converted into this uh

00:33:13.240 statutory change where she did uh show some support and and the thing is if you win there'll be time

00:33:19.360 to change it so i think she'll have the last word there but she was just trying to kind of get through

00:33:23.360 the day okay uh you're a uh a guy that's got a lot of common sense and judgment the odds on tulsi

00:33:31.280 right now of getting out of committee and getting to the floor and getting floored this one hung in the

00:33:35.140 balance they thought this is the this is the weakest pup in the litter your thoughts as as she

00:33:40.940 concluded this day sir yep i think she gets confirmed and i think that the key vote who is not on the

00:33:47.340 committee but is going to be a part of this is um is lindsey graham um if he you know you guys understand

00:33:54.080 the when you're in your third term or certainly fourth term or more you join in the senate you join a

00:33:59.420 group called the old bulls it doesn't matter if they're uh you men or women or republican or

00:34:04.120 conservative you're one of the old bulls and lindsey graham qualifies on that count and by 0.99

00:34:08.080 supporting tulsi that will give in effect air cover to the other votes that she needs they you know we

00:34:14.480 have 53 senators you can lose three and still win um i count 10 uh rhinos uh tillis uh susan collins

00:34:23.600 lisa murkowski uh langford uh cassidy mitch mcconnell johnny ernst cornyn borosso and thune

00:34:30.320 i think ernst uh cornyn borosso and thune are all yes votes they'll vote to confirm her they're

00:34:36.800 i mean they're the leadership how can the leadership turn their back um maybe we give collins a pass

00:34:41.740 because we don't want a democrat senator from maine tillis is fine he said so at the um i'm sorry that

00:34:47.500 was on on cash but uh but he's okay so it really kind of comes down to langford cassidy and mcconnell

00:34:53.060 i think they'll all line up but i think lindsey graham gives them air cover

00:34:56.280 uh let's talk about cash we'll spend a couple of minutes on cash your your assessment of cash

00:35:02.360 patel today they came at cash pretty hard your your assessment sir they did but there's an old

00:35:07.300 uh saying and you know combat or any kind of battle if you're winners they say he was fortunate in his

00:35:12.780 choice of enemies and yeah they threw everything they could at cash but when your biggest opponents

00:35:17.400 the people trying to rip you apart are adam schiff and um and uh you know sheldon whitehouse

00:35:23.200 you're in pretty good shape i mean the thing with schiff was hilarious they actually started

00:35:26.720 talking about you and uh war room but there was i guess i don't know all the details but they did

00:35:31.040 some musical production um and uh and schiff was pounding cash on this because of some of the

00:35:37.080 participants etc and he said you did this and you did that and cash said no i didn't i didn't say

00:35:42.720 that i said we did he goes well we includes you and he goes well not necessarily it could have been

00:35:47.520 a team thing they got way bogged down in this discussion of what the word we means and we i came up with

00:35:52.820 the this was from the record they had the royal we uh the proverbial we which is sort of metaphorical

00:35:59.240 on the literal we which was our schiff was doing but all i could think of of course is bill clinton

00:36:02.780 when he said he's defending himself by saying well it all depends on what the meaning of the word is

00:36:07.460 is and he was toast after that i mean you didn't you didn't have to be a lawyer just know he

00:36:12.160 tangled himself in knots and when you start splitting words like that the everyday american just writes you

00:36:17.060 off so i think i think schiff uh who was you know censured by the way serial liar um that kind of

00:36:22.960 turned into a joke uh but it did start with uh um they they mentioned uh you mentioned where

00:36:29.020 sheldon sheldon whitehouse was just yeah sheldon whitehouse uh over the just got into this whole

00:36:35.100 thing with can you can you discuss grand jury testimony or not uh i'm i'm a lawyer one thing i know

00:36:41.340 is if there's a rule there's an exception an exception to the exception so there was no uh you know

00:36:46.020 solicitor general there to clear it all up from everybody so they just wasted time going down

00:36:50.660 these dead ends uh chris coons is it's just not a vicious attack dog i mean he's not supporting 0.84

00:36:56.000 cash but he's uh he's he's just not the kind to go for the throat and at the end i heard actually

00:37:02.280 some i'll say conciliatory comments from dick durbin who's uh who is the head of the uh the ranking

00:37:08.960 member on the committee um and some others so i think i think cash is in the clear

00:37:13.420 oh so one more thing let's talk about strategy grassley grassley's the key grassley's the old

00:37:21.140 bull that will give everyone else the air cover old bull uh he did i i taught the team here the

00:37:27.780 young youngsters that uh when grassley he's trained the old-fashioned way when they bang up when the

00:37:33.520 democrats bang up cash when they go back to grassley he always has more fbi signed letters to put in

00:37:39.720 there that's a guy who knows how to run a committee he's always putting the salve on the wound uh when

00:37:45.080 they come back that is old school right there and i thought he's i thought grassley was magnificent

00:37:49.580 today and at 91 years old he can he can really run the deal uh strategic intelligence why now more

00:37:56.200 than ever when it feels like you know i think lennon was the one that said there are decades in which

00:38:01.800 nothing happens and there are weeks in which decades happen we're in one of the we're in those weeks

00:38:07.780 where decades are happening why do they need strategic intelligence now more than ever sir

00:38:12.360 thanks we uh you can find it at uh records war room.com records war room.com is our landing page

00:38:19.340 strategic intelligence is our flagship newsletter uh we have seven or eight thousand words a month uh

00:38:30.400 specialized newsletters but if you just want the overview uh our forecasting record is excellent i'll go

00:38:35.960 all the way back 2016 we said that the uk would vote for brexit the odds were 70 against us uh 2016

00:38:43.060 we said trump would win when it was 95 hillary uh 2023 we said biden would not be the nominee that was

00:38:50.820 a year almost a year before he actually withdrew and we got the electoral forecast on trump to the penny

00:38:57.400 312 electoral votes so so we'll go by our track record and we we just keep doing that we keep leaning

00:39:30.040 thank you brother appreciate you coming on tonight spending uh day two with us on this hearings

00:39:36.920 thanks natalie winters now joins natalie um i want to go back to the i want to go to the

00:39:44.240 confirmation hearings we've had you know nicole and naomi and uh mary come on and and say hey

00:39:51.680 obviously he took some incoming but bobby kennedy's going to get through you've had the jim rickers one

00:39:56.640 of the smartest guys around said look tulsi dinged up a little bit she's going to get through

00:40:00.620 and the cash going to get through what what's your sense being around the white house today is that is

00:40:05.460 that shared down in the white house that we're making momentum we gotta get these committee votes

00:40:10.760 and go are they more worried tonight than they were going in i don't feel the same sense of worry

00:40:18.420 that there was around the hegseth um confirmation obviously hearing and now secretary uh pete hegseth

00:40:25.320 but i think to answer your question i won't just give you my opinion i think i was sort of going

00:40:29.640 through all the legacy media outlets the way that they've been covering um essentially all these

00:40:34.440 hearings and i think the politico front page sort of speaks to i think what the two previous guests

00:40:39.580 were talking about the lead is of course tulsi then there's a separate story then one down

00:40:45.060 is cash and below that is rfk jr which i think is sort of the inverse order of their i would say

00:40:50.620 priorities in terms of concern about who's going to be confirmed and who sort of had the best i think

00:40:55.960 hearing uh best showing today i think tulsi really threw down effectively but you know to get very

00:41:02.500 granular for example there was a story that they put up in the subheading about rfk and the headline on

00:41:08.100 it was anti-abortion groups like what they heard from rfk jr now if they were really really melting

00:41:14.320 down and concerned about the prospect of a secretary rfk they would not be phrasing those headlines like

00:41:20.440 that right they would be saying oh my gosh all these crazy pro you know abortion activists needs

00:41:25.360 to be burning down the phone lines and it's sort of a five alarm fire but that's not necessarily what

00:41:31.180 you're seeing now i think that that sort of begs the question is that more a symptom or function of

00:41:36.560 the fact that they think that these nominees are dead on arrival that they're not going to necessarily

00:41:40.920 get through though i would sort of put that construct more applicable i think most applicable

00:41:44.680 to rfk jr i think cash had a very solid i think appearance today and hearing so did tulsi but i

00:41:51.980 also think too i mean as someone who consumes more msnbc than probably your average uh far lefty out there

00:41:58.020 they're very very honed in and keen on this idea of not taking the bait on every single trump story

00:42:05.220 nominee comment so i don't know if it's sort of selective outrage from the media in other words

00:42:11.000 i think maybe they learned their lesson frankly from the whole pete hegseth debacle where the more

00:42:16.760 that they force the issue and covering it and melt down i think the more cover and sort of ground

00:42:22.320 cover rather that it gives to sort of squishy republican senators to say well look the mainstream media

00:42:27.380 is opposing them so therefore you must support them so i did not certainly feel a lot of oh my gosh

00:42:33.880 these people are going to get confirmed as a sentiment from the press corps today um i think

00:42:38.360 they were i mean obviously more focused on what happened with the the helicopter and plane crash

00:42:42.760 but i don't know if it's something that's more calculated or because they feel like it's not

00:42:46.860 worth their time to stress over it um because they think it's not going to happen

00:42:51.360 you you talk about not taking the bait this is critical for the metal crowd and for the resistance

00:42:58.020 movement they couldn't correct me if i'm wrong you were they did take the they couldn't help

00:43:02.560 themselves in the presser today this is classic trump coming in and throwing down hard and you

00:43:08.460 could just tell the foaming of the mouth they couldn't help themselves they bit on this press

00:43:13.120 conference on this presser day where he gave a press briefing down in the actual press briefing room

00:43:17.900 man of course they did and to that point i want to read everyone the headline kind of uh triaging

00:43:24.820 what happened um obviously very close to us from politico it's trump's disaster playbook

00:43:30.300 blame democrats and politicized tragedy and you go through and it's basically like you said taking

00:43:36.000 the bait saying oh evil trump dared to talk about you know wokeness and dei and affirmative action

00:43:42.300 hiring of course we're now learning as we're coming to air that the helicopter pilot was i believe

00:43:47.200 uh a woman a biological woman at that with about 500 hours um of experience trump of course had the

00:43:53.760 moment that went super viral um from the press conference today where he noted that prior to him i guess

00:43:59.380 it's the haunting legacy um of the biden regime that a lot of the people that the faa was trying

00:44:05.020 to hire were of course minorities and diversity hires but even people who were intellectually um

00:44:11.060 disabled i mean talk about wokeness that's like a whole new tier of just absolute absurdity but look 1.00

00:44:17.800 steve i think that from what i saw at the press conference today and president trump was even asked

00:44:22.740 about this this makes the case all the more clear why president trump needs all of his nominees

00:44:29.160 confirmed swiftly and hastily because we need people to get in there not even to be able to

00:44:34.280 necessarily fix these problems on day one but just to be able to triage these problems thank god we have

00:44:40.080 you know sean duffy in there and uh transportation and pete hagseth over at defense but this is why

00:44:45.980 president trump needs to have not just the cabinet that he's chosen and selected but he needs it

00:44:52.160 imminently and urgently because every day every second that goes by you're allowing that cancer

00:44:57.820 that is joe biden and his legacy of incompetence and wokeness to metastasize and we need president

00:45:04.040 trump to step in there and his nominees uh to be able to have the power and authority to fix it

00:45:08.580 now talk to me about this immigration story what do you got for us

00:45:13.060 yeah this is something that i just wanted to flag for people i'm going to be drilling down on this

00:45:18.160 but there's obviously a lot of lawsuits that have been coming out to sort of halt these mass

00:45:22.120 deportation programs obviously the aclu has been filing a ton of foyers they've been leaking it to

00:45:27.580 the media they've been trying to bully state and local officials into not cooperating with local law

00:45:33.220 enforcement with ice even to the point that they're actually not even wanting all these state

00:45:38.160 uh level officials to cooperate even with terrorism task forces um even just petty crimes they i guess

00:45:45.340 wouldn't want ice to cooperate even if you're talking about child rapists and murderers any

00:45:50.900 criminal they want absolutely no collaboration going on but there was a lawsuit that was brought

00:45:55.640 so this is sort of the lawfare aspect of it not just the media propaganda and you know fear porn

00:46:00.380 angle to it um but this was brought on behalf of an organization called make the road new york so

00:46:06.940 the aclu is suing on their behalf and why this group is so interesting it's of course affiliated

00:46:12.420 and has taken money from the open society foundations the rockefeller trust all those sort of

00:46:16.700 left-wing ngos that you always see but just their filings from the most recent fiscal year of 2023

00:46:22.880 show that they've received over 16 million dollars in government grants and why is that important

00:46:29.100 because that means that the groups the lawfare hacks that are sort of the tip of the spear

00:46:34.240 of the legal resistance to president trump's immigration agenda are being bankrolled by your

00:46:39.300 taxpayer dollars and to that point i think it raises the question frankly the red alarm of what

00:46:44.880 the biden regime was doing for these last four years in terms of giving these groups these entities

00:46:50.020 sort of a war chest to be able to go into battle against president trump and uh his immigration agenda

00:46:57.140 like i said over 16 million dollars in just one year from government grants both federal and state

00:47:02.600 but these are the bad nefarious actors that are sort of waging the immigration lawfare against the

00:47:08.360 trump administration they're not just you know mom and pop uh immigrant activist groups these are

00:47:12.700 federally funded organizations that frankly i think president trump needs to rip any of these active grants

00:47:17.580 when i get in the press briefing room next if i have the chance to ask a question that's something

00:47:21.100 i'd certainly bring up um but the fact that a lot of this resistance is taxpayer subsidized

00:47:25.960 um is something that we're going to be covering and that i'm going to be drilling down on

00:47:29.460 as you know the daily mail is one of our favorite papers right it's not always maga it's not always

00:47:36.980 trump but it's got a great collection of you know between culture and and pop culture and celebrities

00:47:42.640 and and different types of news they covered the pandemic widely they cover president trump wall-to-wall

00:47:48.420 they cover the maga movie now wall-to-wall tell me about this article about our our white house

00:47:53.180 correspondent uh natalie winters what's this piece about well apparently i've what

00:47:59.340 been on the job for 48 hours and i'm already a quote controversial white house correspondent uh

00:48:05.460 you won't believe this but they were attacking me for the sweater that i wore the first day the uh

00:48:11.720 what black cashmere sweater with a white peter pan collar apparently that is a no-go zone uh for

00:48:18.760 the mainstream media but all jokes aside um you know i in this audience will take no lectures

00:48:26.460 on what aesthetics should be from a media industrial complex and just in general establishment uh media

00:48:35.600 that thinks that transgenderism and obesity and grooming and pedophilia is something that should 0.98

00:48:42.920 be prioritized and proselytized across this wonderful country like they what did for the last

00:48:48.280 four years i'm sure everyone has burned into their mind the images of what the transgender influencers

00:48:53.620 flashing their weird chests on the white house lawn i don't think anyone had to apologize for that but

00:49:00.240 more more precisely to this this point obviously i could sit here and dunk on the uh dysgenic stuff 0.81

00:49:05.940 that i've been witnessing every day i will but before we get to that i mean look steve they've tried

00:49:11.640 to shut down this show every single way that they can the kitchen sink and more from throwing you

00:49:17.280 in prison to censoring us to de-platforming us to debanking us to ripping us off every podcast chart 0.99

00:49:23.580 known to man and now that we've won and that these stupid outlets and entities and cutouts like the 0.96

00:49:30.900 global disinformation index that they've weaponized to come after us that president trump has defunded 0.98

00:49:36.700 and exposed and gone after now that they no longer can smear us for being agents of misinformation

00:50:30.720 disgusting i'm not even going to sit here and play the sexist card i don't care i'm above that but it
