On today's episode of The War Room, we're joined by Trevor Comstock, CEO of Sacred Human, to discuss Veterans Day, the upcoming Make America Healthy Again conference in Washington D.C., and much more!
00:01:24.600I want to kick off the 6 o'clock hour.
00:01:27.080Tomorrow, there's a Make America Healthy Again conference in Washington, D.C.
00:01:32.080We're trying to get to make sure that we can cover some of the highlights of it.
00:01:35.580There's a lot of controversy about are the tech bros, the Palantirs of the world, the Peter Thiels, are they trying to take over the Maha movement?
00:01:46.640We will make sure we're on top of that to ensure that that does not happen.
00:01:52.200Make America Healthy Again is too important to the nation and obviously to the MAGA movement.
00:01:59.020This is the way we continue welding those two movements together is a way that we ensure a grassroots movement that can win national elections time and time and time again.
00:02:08.540Trevor Comstock, what do you got for us today, sir?
00:08:28.820There's a piece up on my getter, and if we can put it up, and if Grace – I think Mo is actually still at West Point working on some projects there.
00:08:36.880Grace is riding shotgun with us today, if Grace and others can put it out.
00:08:41.860But – and I'll break this down more tomorrow, but there's a – there's – and I keep going back to the core of the Trump economic program.
00:08:51.160And that's more important than, hey, you know, particularly you saw this morning, and this is why it's so difficult for the mainstream media to correct itself and actually become something that people can get legitimate information from.
00:09:02.060The Secretary of Treasury, Scott Besson, went on Morning Joe, and I would like you to compare Morning Joe's interview four or five-on-one versus what we did last week.
00:09:13.700We asked probing questions, but we let the Secretary of Treasury explain himself and explain what the Trump program is, and particularly in this critical element of – because it is a massive undertaking that is underway.
00:09:28.520And that is to rejuvenate and to bring back America to be a manufacturing superpower.
00:09:36.000And there's been a lot of talk about it and a lot of talk about why the Rust Belt happened.
00:09:39.000This is actually an action plan that has many aspects of it, but the two converging forces are a tax cut that rewarded capital investment.
00:09:48.380And at the same time, a liberation day talking about not just tariffs and protectionism and economic nationalism, but really redoing the world's commercial relationships that at the centerpiece said, we are the best consumer market in the world.
00:10:05.700And if you want to get access to this, number one, we would like you to manufacture here and create high-value-added jobs, which American citizens would get.
00:10:13.240But if you're not going to do that, then you're going to pay some tolling fee to come into here.
00:10:22.920As this is going on about returning us to a manufactured superpower, you have the entire situation with artificial intelligence.
00:10:30.060And now we are told by our betters that we're in an arms race, that this is a Cold War arms race, just like we had against the Soviets back starting really after World War II.
00:10:40.980Let's say the 1940s, but by the 50s and 60s, it was turbocharged.
00:10:47.360Artificial intelligence is supposed to be the end-all and be-all.
00:10:49.740And now we have a piece in Zero Hedge, and I told you this day was coming.
00:10:55.580That they're going to sit there and go, because this is a national security situation against the Chinese Communist Party, because lo and behold, we can't let them win the AI race, that we're going to need government support, just like the defense industry needs government support.
00:11:13.660We need government support now to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars, not simply on the data centers, but to power the data centers.
00:11:21.100And, of course, the leaders of the climate change movement, all these progressives in the tech area, the tech bros, the oligarchs, have now all got old-time religion.
00:11:30.860And you can burn anything, do anything, just as long as they get power in Zero Hedge.
00:11:38.460And you've seen this coming from the CFO of OpenAI and others in the industry that are sitting there talking about, well, you know, we can't lose this, so the government's not going to have to get involved, including now not just AI itself, not simply the data centers, but now the energy supply, the data centers.
00:11:59.440No one has taken the time to walk the American people through this.
00:12:05.820We kind of need a presentation on a, whoa, exactly what this is going, you don't want any regulation.
00:12:12.400It takes more, you have more regulation on a nail salon on Capitol Hill than you have on the entire, you know, a technology that could end the world.
00:12:22.080And that's according to the guys that run these frontier labs, not Stephen K. Bannon.
00:12:27.380So now we're told that it's not simply the data centers, which are going to suck every ounce of water out of places like Arizona and Texas, but that the energy needs are so vast.
00:12:44.440Listen, I've got to get Dave Walsh on here tomorrow.
00:12:47.600Well, we still got Dave Walsh to explain this to us.
00:12:50.200But it's going to take, according to, and it's a really great classic zero hedge piece where they're knitting together about five or different news sources to really make a really powerful article.
00:13:01.640It's up on my getter right now, which getter is totally free, to hundreds of billions of dollars of just going to have to have government financing for it, that the AI companies don't have it, even though they have trillion dollar market caps.
00:13:14.940So my only, my point here is that, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, we got to stop the madness.
00:13:20.460Number one, we got to figure out a regulatory apparatus.
00:13:23.660Yes, I'm not, I'm a deconstructed administrative state, but I'm not a techno anarchist.
00:13:30.180This has to have some sort of regulatory framework.
00:14:19.040But if you need a government backstop or if you need actual loans, if the capital requirements are so big that, you know, you can't sell equity,
00:14:29.260and I guess you can't sell equity because you don't want dilution for yourself.
00:14:32.940I'm just throwing this out there as a comment or a concept, I should say.
00:14:38.640This is the discussion I used to have with Elon all the time.
00:15:59.860And it has to stop about artificial intelligence.
00:16:03.880If they're going to have, and we need somebody to sit there and go, hey, this is what the capital requirements are.
00:16:09.280This is how it rolls out over the next couple years.
00:16:11.320Understanding that, you know, every projection I've ever seen is never hits it exactly right.
00:16:16.640Of course there's going to be perturbations, there's going to be changes, there's going to be sometimes misses, sometimes you're wrong by years.
00:16:22.800But at least you have a general direction of the action you're taking today and how that, in your thinking, manifests itself in the future.
00:16:30.580So we just thought, well, there's hundreds of billions of dollars now, not just for data centers, but to power the data centers.
00:17:21.560And, of course, now they're saying for guys that didn't, the same crowd in Silicon Valley that didn't want to build a nuclear power plant and shut them all down in California,
00:17:31.040now they want to have a little nuclear reactor, just bolt it up there in Scarsborough.
00:17:36.220Let's build a data center out in El Paso, Texas, and let's just bolt a little nuclear reactor.
00:18:36.500We're going to be hammering this every day because this is one of the central issues of our time.
00:18:40.400Of everything else that's going on, all the other stuff we talk about, all the efforts you put in for politics and culture and turning things around.
00:18:50.000This will probably be known of the inflection point for the species, Homo sapiens.
00:20:10.180But we certainly don't want people like that making decisions that the rest of the country in this republic, in the citizens in this republic, will have to live with forever.
00:20:26.200Nightly Winters, your thoughts, ma'am, on the surveillance.
00:20:40.940Well, I think with everything you've outlined, we might need to add a fifth hour of war room programming.
00:20:46.220And I still think we'd fall short of being able to address all of this.
00:20:50.780But I think to add to the convergence narrative of all of this, I mean, what you're essentially talking about, right, the idea of bettering humans, this idea of chipping and the space stuff, I think you see it, the through line through the H-1B debate, right?
00:21:04.140And it really goes back to what it means to be an American, right, maximizing the value of your citizenship.
00:21:10.320And sure, we could all have, like, bug people in colonies.
00:21:13.300You know, it's essentially, I think, culturally very communist or totalitarian.
00:21:17.520And I think that's sort of the other side of the coin of what all of this is.
00:21:20.740It's sort of a slow roll take on that, where it's like we exist, right?
00:21:24.860The idea of making us maximally productive, that's sort of the scolding the American worker in favor of some, you know, H-1B scam Indian or Chinese person that's going to come over here.
00:21:34.760Is it's like, well, actually, I don't exist or said worker doesn't exist just to boost the profit margins of some evil multinational global corporation that when push comes to shove, like, I don't know, January 6th, they're going to stop funding and they're going to blacklist all the politicians who are fighting for the very voice of the employees that they're essentially subjugating.
00:22:11.640But they, I think, Steve, one of the most profound things that you have said, and there's a lot of that, but as of recent, is that everybody wants a piece of this audience.
00:22:21.240Everybody wants a piece of the MAGA movement.
00:22:26.800And they understand the power that this audience has, right?
00:22:30.920It's the reason why they want to meet and talk with me, not because of me, but because of this audience and the audience that you have you've created because they actually do stuff.
00:22:39.340They understand action, action, action, and accountability.
00:22:42.600That is not what Silicon Valley and all these tech people are about.
00:22:45.620They are about fakeness and distraction and pumping fake value and, like you said, socializing the risk.
00:22:52.060And right now, it's like the Mark Zuckerberg performative, you know, ending the fact check.
00:22:59.200These people, frankly, belong in prison.
00:23:01.400And that's the opening bid for what they did in the 2020 election.
00:23:04.920But I think the scariest people are the ones who pretend to be your friends as compared to the people who will stay firm on their convictions.
00:23:13.920And you see that in the CARP article today, talking about how he used to be buddy-buddy with Democrats, and now he's, you know, hanging out with Trump.
00:23:26.240Natalie, you know, I've been hammering on Sachs and Jensen because they've been at the lead of kind of this, it doesn't matter who wins in AI, and aren't we being greedy?
00:23:40.040Aren't we being terrible as Americans because we want to hoard these chips?
00:23:43.200I think the comment was we want to hoard these chips ourselves.
00:23:45.960You've done, and you're going to hang through the break, you've done some more investigative reporting.
00:23:50.420Kind of your wheelhouse has always been looking at the Chinese Communist Party and the subversion of our technology companies, the government process, all of it.
00:24:02.000You've got some amazing pieces up on Substack.
00:24:06.900Well, yeah, we definitely got to go through all the details on that one because it's just maddening.
00:24:10.940But I think the point that I would make broadly, people like Jensen Huang, people like all of these sort of, you know, China simps, people like David Sachs,
00:24:19.120is that this, I've never liked the idea of the, I can save it for after the break.
00:24:25.820Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.
00:24:27.460I want to see, anybody that, anybody that gives me a CCP simp is going to, you hang on for a second.
00:24:33.720As the caissons go, March rolling along is going to take us out.
00:32:15.840But, you know, they treat it, right, like it's, as you would say, a law of physics,
00:32:20.220that you have, you know, a rising power, and then you have the United States.
00:32:23.340There's going to be some form of conflict.
00:32:24.840And they always sort of use that paradigm to explain how China is going to eventually overtake the United States.
00:32:29.920But I've never liked that because there's sort of this passive, you know, agency and autonomy-less view of what the United States can do to prevent that conflict.
00:32:39.400And people like David Sachs, people like Jensen Huang, that sort of ilk, not even the outright pro-China collaborating faction,
00:32:46.520but the sort of euphemistic wishy-washy crowd, those are the people who make that trajectory,
00:32:51.620the replacement of the United States, not in a, you know, unipolar world order,
00:32:55.120but us being replaced effectively by the Chinese Communist Party, not just a nightmare, but they make it reality.
00:33:03.380And I think some of the, you know, words we've heard from President Trump talking about Chinese students,
00:33:07.300most recently with Laura Ingraham, are quite concerning.
00:33:10.000I would argue that we need to be at a, you know, Manhattan Project level of not just decoupling from the Chinese Communist Party,
00:33:17.460but understanding the, you know, hybrid unrestricted warfare that we're at with them
00:33:22.260and how it is American useful idiots who are getting very wealthy off of collaborating with China,
00:33:28.560and it's our tax dollars that are propping up the same apparatus and ecosystems that are now being weaponized against us.
00:33:34.600Case in point, everything to do, you know, with the rare earths,
00:33:38.320I would just add, making America great again is not about turning Jensen Huang into, you know,
00:33:43.740a kleptocratic trillionaire or David Sachs into a kleptocratic, you know, decamillionaire.
00:33:49.520But the rare earth one, I think, is a really interesting example,
00:33:53.000sort of what you were talking about with, you know, us, the taxpayers,
00:33:56.160not seeing any upside to where our money is going to every corner of the earth,
00:34:00.780but in this case, it's actually funding our demise.
00:34:03.720I uncovered several studies and research into rare earths being done essentially at China's top lab,
00:34:14.680their kind of state key laboratory for what they call rare earth materials and chemistry.
00:34:19.440It was founded by China's sort of grandfather of all their rare earth tech.
00:34:24.060It's this laboratory that has allowed them to really consolidate, monopolize,
00:34:27.700and ultimately weaponize so much of the global rare earth supply,
00:34:31.320but also the refinement capabilities of it.
