00:00:47.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:00:49.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.

00:00:51.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:00:54.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:00:58.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:00:59.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:01:00.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:01:08.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:17.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:20.000 Brought to you by my friends, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage, 888, 888, 1172, or AndrewNTodd.com.

00:01:30.000 Joining us now is Kash Patel.

00:01:33.000 Cash has some very strong opinions.

00:01:35.000 He said, welcome, Cash.

00:01:37.000 You said, no way, an Eric Nart National Guardsman in his 20s single-handedly had access to the classified intelligence in nature and pulled off this disclosure alone.

00:01:44.000 Cash, what do you mean by that?

00:01:46.000 Hey, Joe, it's great to be with you.

00:01:48.000 Look, as the chief of staff of the Department of Defense who ran our $3 million no-fail mission and the former deputy director of national intelligence, it's not about me and my titles, but it's about being around this sort of information.

00:01:59.000 And a 20-year-old National Guardsman, there's a reason this stuff gets compartmented and siloed off from 99% of people who have a top secret clearance because this information is so detrimental to U.S. national security.

00:02:12.000 And for him to do it alone is unheard of.

00:02:14.000 So he either swiped it, and there's batches of information, and we can get into that later, or someone, and I can tell you where I believe the information came from, gave it to him to put out. 0.87

00:02:25.000 And I think it's unfortunately, as we've learned, classified leaks happen in the Biden administration and others when they're favorable to their narrative or when they want to cover their asses.

00:02:37.000 And that's what they're doing on Ukraine. 0.68

00:02:39.000 So, yeah, let's dive deeper into this.

00:02:41.000 So you said also, you said, why hasn't the House Armed Services Committee did direct jurisdiction over the Department of Defense with direct jurisdiction over DADA issued subpoenas?

00:02:50.000 Why haven't they done that, Cash?

00:02:51.000 I'm confused.

00:02:53.000 I don't even know.

00:02:54.000 I forget who the head of the House side is.

00:02:57.000 The Senate side's controlled by the Devs, but you think they'd want to get a grasp on this.

00:03:01.000 And here's why they haven't done it.

00:03:03.000 The defense industrial complex.

00:03:05.000 The defense industrial complex is worse than any political party and every lobbying group combined.

00:03:10.000 They are the reason we're spending $110 billion in the Ukraine.

00:03:14.000 They are the reason, along with the Biden administration's propaganda, that we have purportedly succeeded in the Ukraine.

00:03:22.000 And my problem with all of this is putting the classified leaks aside, is that we, the Biden administration, had the actual ground-level intelligence to tell us that we were failing.

00:03:33.000 That means Secretary Austin and Chairman Milley, who run the Department of Defense, knew about this intelligence and either advised Biden to lie or permitted him to do so about the status of the Ukraine.

00:03:45.000 Because as you know, so many Democrats and Republicans now are all for World War III in the Ukraine, and that's because of the defense industrial complex.

00:03:55.000 So, Cash, they seem more interested in going after the individual leaker than actually the contents of the leak.

00:04:02.000 I want to just reemphasize, I just want to re-emphasize: they say that this was a newsletter that was sent to 3 million people.

00:04:08.000 Do you buy that?

00:04:09.000 Not for one second.

00:04:11.000 I'm glad you hit on this because I think the reporting out there is grossly mischaracterized.

00:04:15.000 First of all, these leaks have been being posted since at least October.

00:04:19.000 And I think the Biden administration has known about them for some time.

00:04:22.000 They're just in cover-up mode.

00:04:23.000 But let's put that aside.

00:04:25.000 They're talking about at least 350 separate documents.

00:04:29.000 The specific document in question, though, the one that's the most popular that's being thrown around the internet is one that's prepared for exclusively for the joint for the joint chairman, or excuse me, the joint chiefs of staff.

00:04:43.000 It is an intelligence briefing created just for that office so they can advise the president and secretary of defense on the environment in the Ukraine.

00:04:55.000 It is not given to 3 million people in the United States government.

00:04:59.000 There are 3 million employees at the entire Department of Defense.

00:05:03.000 That is ludicrous to think that.

00:05:05.000 So, then why are they saying it?

00:05:07.000 And then I'm just trying to understand how this young man then came across this information, right?

00:05:13.000 I mean, that seems to be somewhat of a mystery.

00:05:15.000 Is he just the Patsy?

00:05:16.000 Is he just a fall guy, Cash?

00:05:19.000 Well, I mean, from the public reporting, it seems he wanted the information out.

00:05:23.000 And I've said from the beginning, this is not how you do it.

00:05:25.000 You don't break the law just to get back at them and justify a narrative, no matter what your beliefs are, even whether I agree that this information shows the Biden administration lying to us.

00:05:37.000 But the information is so sensitive and siloed.

00:05:40.000 And what I mean by that is, even if you have a top-secret compartment of clearance, it doesn't mean you have access to this because only limited amounts of people do.

00:05:49.000 So maybe there was one document in that entire series that a lot of people had access to, but the crux of the matter, talking about Mossad intelligence and talking about Ukrainian warfare and operational planning of the environment, that is not something that comes from anywhere but the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

00:06:07.000 Then that's extraordinary.

00:06:08.000 Could he have swiped it?

00:06:10.000 I mean, but then he's an aired National Guardsman.

00:06:13.000 I mean, yeah, so to riff on that, how could he have swiped it?

00:06:18.000 That's what I meant when I put up a post.

00:06:21.000 He couldn't have done it alone.

00:06:22.000 People who have access to it could have collaborated with him and said, here's this document.

00:06:27.000 We want it out in some format.

00:06:29.000 We need you to do it.

00:06:30.000 He could have run some sort of intrusion operation, and or it's possible, he was in a room where this information was.

00:06:38.000 And even though he wasn't supposed to be the one going through it, he just took it.

00:06:42.000 There's a lot of scenarios at play.

00:06:44.000 I just don't believe the one where he individually, as a 20-year-old Air National Guardsman, goes in and swipes our most sensitive intelligence and then has been propagating it out there for the last five months on internet chat rooms because he wanted to somehow get this message out.

00:07:00.000 I just don't buy that.

00:07:02.000 It doesn't add up.

00:07:04.000 So, I mean, maybe there's an accomplice, right?

00:07:07.000 Maybe there's an accomplice that we haven't yet found.

00:07:11.000 The documents appear online.

00:07:13.000 This is what the media is saying: New York Times.

00:07:15.000 Appear online as hastily taken photographs of pieces of paper sitting atop what appears to be hunting magazines.

00:07:24.000 Former officials who have reviewed the material say it appears likely that a classified briefing was folded up, placed in a pocket, then taken out of a secure area to be photographed.

00:07:34.000 And so maybe he has an accomplice.

00:07:37.000 Maybe there's a network of these people.

00:07:39.000 But what is clear, Cash, is, I mean, I just, I mean, before I go, can you just, how is this even possible?

00:07:46.000 I mean, I'm not buying this.

00:07:48.000 I'm sorry.

00:07:49.000 The media is going to attack me for saying this, which is fine.

00:07:51.000 I don't care.

00:07:52.000 I think there's more to the story here.

00:07:54.000 I think that someone is lying here.

00:07:56.000 I'm going to be very honest.

00:07:57.000 There's something more to the story here.

00:08:01.000 I totally agree with you.

00:08:03.000 That's why, like, a week or so ago, I posted before, once this intelligence leak broke, I said, no way he did it alone.

00:08:10.000 Somebody else is helping him.

00:08:11.000 It's going to be the biggest disclosure since Julian Assange, and you can't do it alone.

00:08:16.000 He has been working with people on these internet chat groups.

00:08:19.000 Who knows who these people are?

00:08:20.000 Other DOD folks, other Intel folks.

00:08:23.000 But my belief is that someone assisted him through the inside.

00:08:28.000 Because, like you were saying, these documents, even in their print format, aren't just laying around in secure compartmented information facilities where this guy's walking in and out of for him to swipe.

00:08:39.000 He has to know about that type of briefing.

00:08:43.000 And remember, it's a five-month campaign that we know about just yet.

00:08:46.000 I think it's longer.

00:08:47.000 So he's been doing this for some time.

00:08:50.000 He's been putting out information from five months ago up until at least two weeks ago that we publicly know about.

00:08:56.000 So it's not like he got a one-off.

00:08:58.000 I'm going to do something wrong.

00:09:00.000 Somebody's been feeding it to him, or there's some plan in there.

00:09:03.000 And that's why they took him down, not just because he's a criminal.

00:09:07.000 I believe he should be prosecuted.

00:09:08.000 But they took him down because they don't want, like anything else, they want to bury the narrative that they knew they've been lying to the world about the Ukraine and the U.S. involvement and the success and failure of it.

00:09:19.000 And they want to lay it at someone's feet.

00:09:21.000 And you know who hasn't said anything?

00:09:23.000 Millie.

00:09:23.000 Millie hasn't said one word.

00:09:27.000 He's too busy at Golden Corral or Old Country Buffet, fattest general we've ever had. 1.00

00:09:32.000 Total loser. 0.99

00:09:33.000 And he's very distracted. 0.99

00:09:36.000 And I don't quite understand.

00:09:37.000 I mean, we're running out of time here, Cash.

00:09:39.000 I just need to make sure everybody grasps this.

00:09:42.000 That there's definitely more to the story here.

00:09:45.000 This took place over months.

00:09:47.000 Where the heck was the FBI?

00:09:48.000 Something doesn't smell right.

00:09:50.000 It's very murky.

00:09:52.000 And their reaction is going to be very telling.

00:09:56.000 If they're going to try to push more censorship, more control because of this, then it's possible that he was getting Fed information, that there was an accomplice, that he was, you know, maybe not as involved as you think.

00:10:12.000 I don't know.

00:10:13.000 But the narrative that a 21-year-old Air National Guardsman is able to get sensitive information on troop movements in Ukraine and whether or not we're spying on South Korean diplomats, and they say that it's sent out in a newsletter to 3 million people.

00:10:30.000 I don't buy it.

00:10:31.000 I don't.

00:10:32.000 I think these people are lying to us, and there's more to the story.

00:10:38.000 Look, it is time to consider a rollover of that 401k into an IRA.

00:10:43.000 The investment world is completely different in 2023, and you cannot do the same thing as last year.

00:10:49.000 Woke companies are aggressively implementing ESG.

00:10:53.000 Interest rates are going up and inflation is still lingering.

00:10:56.000 If you have over $150,000, now is the time to move your money to a biblical responsible investing strategy with my friends at PAX Financial Group.

00:11:04.000 Here's how you can connect with PAX.

00:11:05.000 Text Charlie to the number 74868.

00:11:08.000 That's it.

00:11:08.000 Just take out your phone.

00:11:10.000 Text Charlie, C-H-A-R-L-I-E, to 74868.

00:11:18.000 So take out your phone, text Charlie to number 74868 for biblical responsible investing.

00:11:24.000 Text Charlie to 74868.

00:11:30.000 We have a team member.

00:11:31.000 I don't know if I'll say his name.

00:11:32.000 He's a good man.

00:11:33.000 He's a young man, though.

00:11:35.000 And I remember this when I first started Turning Point USA.

00:11:38.000 When I first started turning pointless guys traveling the country, I couldn't rent a car.

00:11:42.000 Too young.

00:11:42.000 And I remember when I finally hit my 25th birthday.

00:11:45.000 In fact, when you're 23, you could pay an extra.

00:11:47.000 What?

00:11:47.000 My 25th birthday, I said, finally, I don't have to pay that extra overage to go rent a car.

00:11:52.000 They say it's because your brain is not fully formed to 2526.

00:11:54.000 Hertz.com.

00:11:56.000 Is there a fee for renting a car under 25?

00:11:59.000 Yes, a young renter fee.

00:12:00.000 The fee is in addition to a daily rental fee.

00:12:03.000 According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Association, USA, drivers who are younger than 25 are significantly more likely to get into accidents.

00:12:10.000 That being said, drivers ages 20, 24 can rent with Hertz, but they're subject to a young driver fee.

00:12:15.000 Our military is obviously heavily under 25.

00:12:18.000 21 is at the lower spectrum of that.

00:12:21.000 The point being is that are we really supposed to believe that a 21-year-old solely individually was able to get our top nation secrets and put them on a Discord server.

00:12:32.000 Cash, let's talk about the contents, the contents, the contents.

00:12:35.000 What did we learn here?

00:12:36.000 And why is the regime focusing more on the leaker than the leaked information?

00:12:41.000 Yeah, let me just take that in reverse real quick.

00:12:43.000 So I forgot to mention in the previous segment, how is it that the New York Times and the Washington Post were the first to report this information about sensitive classified leaks?

00:12:52.000 And they figured out before the FBI who the leaker in question was, or at least one of them.

00:12:57.000 That goes to show you the trade crap that the government applies when they want to bury something. 0.81

00:13:03.000 And what they want to bury is the content. 0.85

00:13:05.000 And the content shows a couple of specific things, and we'll get to the Ukraine.

00:13:09.000 But it shows Mossad intelligence collection.

00:13:13.000 That is Israel's version of the CIA in their clandestine reporting and who and on what they collect on.

00:13:20.000 That is some very sensitive stuff.

00:13:22.000 It shows things related to China and Russia and their involvement in the Ukraine.

00:13:28.000 But more importantly, it shows in the Ukraine, if it's accurate, the depletion of the amount of aid and machinery we have sent there.

00:13:37.000 And here's a startling fact for the left-wing mafia, but not for us.

00:13:42.000 The failure of the $110 billion in machinery and equipment that we have put there and the revelation that American contractors and certain uniformed officers are on the ground in the Ukraine.

00:13:56.000 All of which is a lie from the Biden administration or exposes the lie from the Biden administration, I should say.

00:14:02.000 Because according to them, we're about to take a victory lap in the Ukraine, give them more money.

00:14:07.000 Putin's about to be defeated and everything's going to be great.

00:14:11.000 But it looks like what we've been reporting on, what you've been reporting on, Charlie, is that we're actually headed to World War III at the cost of $150 billion American dollars.

00:14:20.000 Yeah, at the very minimum, Cash, I want to play some tape here about all of this.

00:14:26.000 Let's go to this one right here.

00:14:28.000 Oh, yeah, I want to ask you, Cash, this is a great take.

00:14:30.000 Okay, so we know that we have U.S. special forces in the embassy.

00:14:33.000 Senator Kramer said they're just there to protect the embassy.

00:14:36.000 Is that right?

00:14:37.000 Do you think they're just regular embassy services or are they to do something more, Cash?

00:14:41.000 So we have embassies in almost every country around the world.

00:14:44.000 Our Defense Attached Office job is to provide military liaison services to the host nation country.

00:14:50.000 And I can tell you this definitively.

00:14:52.000 The folks charged with the protection of the embassy are the Marine Security Guard units.

00:14:56.000 That is their job at every single embassy post around the world.

00:15:00.000 Sometimes you add additional troop deployments within the embassy, but you don't add special forces operators for that exercise.

00:15:09.000 That is not.

00:15:10.000 That is a conventional warfare operator position.

00:15:13.000 So why is special forces in the country?

00:15:15.000 I'm not really sure.

00:15:17.000 And I don't think I agree with that deployment decision.

00:15:20.000 There must be something else.

00:15:23.000 I think so.

00:15:23.000 I think that there is, I think that's kind of the theme, right?

00:15:26.000 That there is more to the story, more to the story.

00:15:30.000 So, Cash, tell us about your book.

00:15:31.000 I know it's still kind of being, you know, bureaucrats are trying to stop it.

00:15:35.000 Tell us about what's going on.

00:15:37.000 Yeah, four months in, government gangsters, governmentgangsters.com.

00:15:41.000 You can get it on pre-sale.

00:15:42.000 The irony is my book has been in a four-month review in the United States government at nine different agencies and departments because they don't want to know because we expose the corruption at every agency, D-O-D-C-I-F-B-I, and tell you how to restore it.

00:15:55.000 So now I'm filing a federal lawsuit just to get my manuscript released so the world can read my book.

00:16:00.000 And we're going to do that in the next week or so.

00:16:02.000 But for now, please go to governmentgangsters.com or go to Amazon and buy the book.

00:16:06.000 No, here's what you got to do.

00:16:10.000 You got to buy the book, but cash, you got to leak the book on Discord.

00:16:14.000 You got to leak the book on Discord.

00:16:14.000 Okay?

00:16:16.000 And so then the entire world will read it.

00:16:19.000 Okay?

00:16:20.000 So I'm kidding.

00:16:21.000 Check it out, government gangsters.

00:16:24.000 We don't want to have you get in trouble.

00:16:25.000 Kash Patel, we think the world of you.

00:16:27.000 Thanks so much.

00:16:28.000 Thanks so much, bud.

00:16:32.000 Are you feeling burned out and a little tired?

00:16:34.000 Look, I want to tell you about something that I've become a big believer in.

00:16:37.000 And if you do not know about it, you got to research it.

00:16:39.000 You could fact-check me.

00:16:40.000 It's NAD.

00:16:42.000 NAD is a precursor for your body to be able to create ATP, which is basically the life force of everything that you do.

00:16:50.000 And look, there's a lot of people out there that are promising energy and doing all this.

00:16:52.000 But go do some research on NAD and go see actually how incredibly important it is for high performance to be able to go actually get it to the next level.

00:17:03.000 And so what does NAD stand for?

00:17:05.000 Well, try to take a note here.

00:17:07.000 It is nicotinamide adenonide dinucleotide.

00:17:12.000 I did that pretty well, don't you think?

00:17:13.000 NAD.

00:17:14.000 It's a coenzyme that is central to metabolism.

00:17:18.000 Again, don't take my word for it.

00:17:19.000 Go watch a YouTube video or two or three or four and go fact-check me on it.

00:17:23.000 I've been taking NAD for quite some time.

00:17:24.000 And people say, Charlie, how do you travel 2,700 days in a decade?

00:17:29.000 How do you do the 300 days a year?

00:17:31.000 Look, it's not only because of this.

00:17:31.000 How do you do that?

00:17:32.000 I eat well and do other things as well.

00:17:35.000 But if you look at NADH, especially when it combines with CoQ10 and marine collagen, it boosts your body's cellular function.

00:17:42.000 I would never tell you guys to go do something I myself did not do.

00:17:46.000 And Strong Cell has been able to put together a scientific breakthrough in cellular health replenishment that combines NADH, CoQ10, and marine collagen.

00:17:55.000 When you combine them together, you get mental clarity.

00:17:57.000 And that's a must for me.

00:17:59.000 It's not just that.

00:18:00.000 It's for vitality.

00:18:01.000 It helps your immune system.

00:18:04.000 So go to strongcell.com forward slash Charlie today and see for yourself.

00:18:09.000 It's not a stimulant.

00:18:10.000 It doesn't contain any caffeine.

00:18:11.000 I'm talking about overall health from the cellular level.

00:18:14.000 NADH has been called the anti-aging enzyme that helps with so many issues like brain fog, short-term memory loss, blood pressure, heart disease, blood sugar retention, and so much more.

00:18:24.000 And look, it's not a magic pill.

00:18:25.000 It's like, oh, I'm going to start taking this and I'm going to be super smart.

00:18:28.000 No, no, it's an additive, an amplifier on people that want to get better.

00:18:33.000 But I can tell you, it makes a big difference.

00:18:35.000 I've personally seen undeniable benefits from taking Strong Cell and engaging with NAD every day.

00:18:41.000 So I had to partner with them.

00:19:27.000 Joining us now is Marjorie Taylor Green, MTG.

00:19:32.000 Welcome, Congresswoman.

00:19:33.000 I want to read your tweet.

00:19:34.000 You said Jake Teixeira is a white Christian male and anti-war.

00:19:37.000 That makes him an enemy to the Biden regime.

00:19:39.000 He told the truth about troops being on the ground in Ukraine a lot more.

00:19:41.000 Ask yourself who's the real enemy, a young low-level National Guardsman or the administration that is waging war in Ukraine, a non-NATO nation against nuclear Russia without war powers.

00:19:51.000 Congresswoman, expand and elaborate. 1.00

00:19:53.000 The floor is yours.

00:19:55.000 Hi, Charlie.

00:19:56.000 Thank you so much for having me on.

00:19:58.000 First off, I think your audience knows that in the beginning, I did vote yes for the resolution condemning Russia's invasion of Ukraine, but I have voted for zero funding of this war.

00:20:10.000 I believe that America should be pursuing peace in Ukraine, not funding.

00:20:16.000 And now we're finding out truly waging the war in Ukraine against a nuclear-armed Russia that puts us all at risk of World War III.

00:20:27.000 Even worse, inflation has skyrocketed because of this war.

00:20:30.000 And now we're on the verge of losing the dollar as the world's currency because we have pushed Russia into the arms of China through the sanctions from the Biden admin.

00:20:42.000 But here's what really deeply bothers me: is, yes, it is wrong, and it is against the law to, if you have signed up, if you've signed over your rights and you are supposed to be in charge of classified information, you cannot share it.

00:20:58.000 That is against the law.

00:21:00.000 But the real problem is that the leaders in our country who weld power, the ones that are in charge of everything, and they're in charge of the classified information, our nation's secrets, our military, they are unconstitutionally waging a war in Ukraine and funding it with our tax dollars.

00:21:21.000 And because of the leaks that we have found out through this 21-year-old National Guardsman, we really know how deeply the problems are and how unconstitutional they are.

00:21:36.000 As a member of Congress, we have not voted on a war powers resolution.

00:21:40.000 I haven't voted on one.

00:21:42.000 None of us have.

00:21:43.000 We haven't decided to go to war with Russia in Ukraine.

00:21:47.000 And here we're seeing a 21-year-old, low-level National Guardsman being thrown under the bus, called a traitor, being called a racist.

00:21:58.000 He's being persecuted, and he's probably going to be locked up for many, many years.

00:22:03.000 But we're not seeing anyone in the Biden administration or the Pentagon held accountable.

00:22:08.000 We're not seeing them forced to own up for responsibility of waging a war that's unconstitutional that we have not voted to go into.

00:22:20.000 And I think it's wrong.

00:22:21.000 And I'm speaking out on it because I'm sick and tired of it.

00:22:24.000 You know, it's always somebody small that takes that's the fall guy.

00:22:29.000 It's always someone insignificant that they create to be the criminal and the bad guy, but yet it's our government repeatedly.

00:22:37.000 They're the ones in the wrong.

00:22:39.000 So, Congresswoman, you know, whether he's a hero or a villain, I actually reject the binary.

00:22:44.000 It's rather messy, right?

00:22:45.000 And there's a criteria that we use on our program here when somebody leaks something.

00:22:49.000 Did you harm someone's life?

00:22:51.000 Did you interfere with a moral mission?

00:22:52.000 Did you leak more than you had to?

00:22:54.000 Did you do it for the right reasons?

00:22:55.000 It seems to be a little messy.

00:22:57.000 But what is clear, though, is that the contents of what this young man leaked are significant.

00:23:03.000 But, Congresswoman, I want to just ask a question here because I think it's actually deeper than Mr. Teixeira.

00:23:09.000 I think that their vero might be an accomplice.

00:23:11.000 Derverro might be other people engaged or involved.

00:23:14.000 Congresswoman, what do you think about that?

00:23:15.000 Do you think there are other people that were involved in leaking this, or should we just take the entire story at face value?

00:23:21.000 No, I totally agree with you that it's very complicated and the situation is messy and we clearly don't have all the information, Charlie.

00:23:29.000 That has to be said first and foremost.

00:23:32.000 I can't comprehend, and it doesn't make any sense to anyone I've talked to, how this 21-year-old National Guardsman was capable of getting all of this information on his own and releasing it into the discourse chat.

00:23:47.000 And, you know, they're even labeling discourse as, of course, a right-wing, you know, terror site, basically.

00:23:54.000 The discourse is actually used by a lot of students.

00:23:57.000 Students in school.

00:24:00.000 Yeah, it continues on.

00:24:01.000 It's always the same old thing.

00:24:03.000 But really, what they're setting up to do is while he probably didn't get this information on his own, he probably got it from other people.

00:24:10.000 They're setting up for more censorship.

00:24:13.000 And the government is really going to be coming after our personal data online.

00:24:18.000 We're on the verge of losing more freedoms.

00:24:20.000 And they're probably going to pass a bill or an executive order or something along the lines of the RESTRICT Act.

00:24:28.000 So here we are again with the government on the verge of creating more power and control, but while they're going to lock away a 21-year-old for the rest of his life.

00:24:41.000 It really is something.

00:24:43.000 So, Congresswoman, your Republican colleagues seem to be just dropping the ball here.

00:24:48.000 Where is the Republican Congress doing subpoenas, bringing Millie, bringing Austin saying, why do we have troops in Kyiv?

00:24:56.000 What's going on here?

00:24:58.000 Why has the Republican response been so weak, Congresswoman?

00:25:01.000 What's going on?

00:25:03.000 Well, I don't know.

00:25:05.000 I can't comprehend it.

00:25:06.000 I can't answer for them.

00:25:08.000 I don't know why I'm the only one saying these things, but it usually always starts out this way.

00:25:14.000 I already have a letter prepared.

00:25:16.000 I'm sending off to Lloyd Austin, someone that really should be fired from his job, not controlling our Department of Defense.

00:25:25.000 But I'm sending him a letter and I'm demanding answers to questions.

00:25:29.000 I want to know what steps the Department of Defense is taking to make U.S. military operations in foreign countries funded by American taxpayers more transparent so as not to be humiliated by leaks of classified documents.

00:25:44.000 I want to know what type of military operations are being conducted by U.S. special forces in Ukraine.

00:25:49.000 I'm asking, did President Biden authorize the placing of American troops in Ukraine without constitutional approval needed from Congress?

00:25:58.000 And lastly, I'm asking how many American service members are currently stationed in Ukraine aside from the 14 reported in the leaked documents.

00:26:07.000 That letter has been fired off, and I have given him a little bit of time to respond, but I'm demanding answers, and I'll continue to keep seeking them, Charlie.

00:26:17.000 And more of my Republican colleagues need to join me in this effort.

00:26:21.000 Just want to kind of go through the contents.

00:26:23.000 This is, I believe, from, this is from the New York Times.

00:26:26.000 It looks like it.

00:26:27.000 The leak, the source of which remains unknown.

00:26:30.000 Well, we now know the leak.

00:26:31.000 Also reveals that the American assessment of a Ukrainian military that itself is in dire straits.

00:26:36.000 The leaked material from late February and early March, found on social media, outlines critical shortages of air defense munitions and discusses the gains being made by Russian troops around the eastern city of Bakhmut.

00:26:48.000 The intelligence reports seem to indicate that the United States is also spying on Ukraine's top military and political leaders, a reflection of Washington's struggle to get a clear view of Ukraine's fighting strategies.

00:27:01.000 Congresswoman, Republicans have, not you, but Republicans have decided to vote for over $115 to $150 billion to continue this proxy war, and it seems as if it's not enough.

00:27:12.000 I know I keep on focusing on the Republican angle, Congresswoman, because we need an opposition party in this country.

00:27:18.000 I know you feel the same way.

00:27:19.000 What are we going to do to turn this around?

00:27:21.000 Two minutes remaining?

00:27:22.000 Oh, Charlie, that's the greatest question there is.

00:27:25.000 And I agree with you.

00:27:26.000 I'm just as angry with Republicans as I am with Democrats most of the time.

00:27:31.000 And that's why we're in the mess we're in.

00:27:33.000 We're $31 trillion in debt and on the verge of World War III.

00:27:37.000 And then even more concerning is BRICS, the new alliance of Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, and other countries that are joining like Saudi Arabia, Mexico, and others.

00:27:49.000 We have serious problems.

00:27:51.000 And if the Republican Party is not going to solve the problems, then you're probably right.

00:27:57.000 We may need an opposition party.

00:27:59.000 And I don't know what that looks like at this time.

00:28:01.000 But we have no one that's really seeing the writing on the wall and the true threat to America, our sovereign nation, and our economy and our ability to survive.

00:28:13.000 But I think that we've come to a point right now.

00:28:16.000 And the biggest threat, according to the Biden administration, is white males who are Christian and straight.

00:28:24.000 And anyone that doesn't go along with the talking points of the day and rejects the narrative that the government and the media want to shove down our throats.

00:28:33.000 We're in big trouble, Charlie.

00:28:35.000 And the American, many people, many regular Americans know it.

00:28:38.000 But unfortunately, Washington is disconnected or just refuses to care.

00:28:44.000 And I don't know where we're going at this point.

00:28:48.000 Well, we need you in D.C. to keep fighting for what's right.

00:28:51.000 Congresswoman, thank you so much.

00:28:52.000 Appreciate it.

00:28:53.000 Thank you.

00:28:55.000 Thank you, Charlie.

00:29:57.000 Check it out.

00:30:01.000 I want to get to some, boy, there's plenty of stories here that are really important and just don't have enough time to be able to build them all out.

00:30:12.000 Let's go to this one here.

00:30:14.000 Go to CUT 64.

00:30:16.000 So, but just to bottom line it, I mean, the purpose of this is to keep you out of the presidential race.

00:30:22.000 If I weren't running, or if I had bad poll numbers, let's say, if they want you to run, if they want to run against somebody, they're going to go the opposite.

00:30:33.000 For instance, they don't want to run against me.

00:30:35.000 And now, I just gave you a poll.

00:30:37.000 I'm nine points up on Biden.

00:30:40.000 But they're the party of disinformation.

00:30:41.000 So what they say is, oh, we want to run against Trump.

00:30:46.000 Do they want to run against Trump?

00:30:48.000 That's interesting.

00:30:48.000 We're going to talk about what do the Democrats actually want in the Republican primary?

00:30:52.000 Because a new trend is Democrats overly involving themselves in Republican primaries.

00:30:56.000 There was a story from a little while ago, and it's very interesting.

00:30:59.000 Reed Hoffman, who's a J.B. Pritzker type.

00:31:02.000 I mean, aesthetically, you look at him.

00:31:04.000 He doesn't run for much.

00:31:06.000 And so Reed Hoffman, very similar to Alvin Bragg, it's kind of a new trend.

00:31:10.000 You can't fat shame people, so it's their truth, I guess.

00:31:15.000 And Mark Milley and all of them.

00:31:17.000 You know, I'm just so sick of the kind of glamorizing obesity culture.

00:31:21.000 I mean, I understand some people struggle with weight problems.

00:31:24.000 Being obese is not acceptable.

00:31:25.000 It's not.

00:31:26.000 Okay?

00:31:26.000 I'm going to get a lot of angry emails from people.

00:31:28.000 All right.

00:31:28.000 We'll go lose weight and then email me.

00:31:30.000 So, anyway, there's a scoop yesterday that was kind of retweeted.

00:31:37.000 And Democrat mega donor Reid Hoffman is looking to boost DeSantis over Trump.

00:31:42.000 Now, actually, this was a tweet from March, but we never really talked about it.

00:31:46.000 And it's very interesting.

00:31:48.000 So, Reid Hoffman is a multi-billionaire.

00:31:50.000 I think he founded LinkedIn, if I'm not mistaken.

00:31:53.000 He's one of the biggest Democrat donors.

00:31:57.000 And the question is: are Democrats going to involve themselves into the Republican primary?

00:32:08.000 They did this in Illinois.

00:32:09.000 They did this with Darren Bailey and with Irvin.

00:32:14.000 And they've done this in a lot of different primaries, and they don't always choose correctly.

00:32:20.000 They don't always able to say, hey, we want to, the candidate we want to run up against is actually the best candidate.

00:32:30.000 Now, Republicans do not have nearly as much money as Democrats do.

00:32:34.000 But you've got to wonder, why would it be that Reid Hoffman would want to support Ron DeSantis and not run against Trump?

00:32:41.000 I think the really smart Democrats out there are fearful of the Trump boost.

00:32:49.000 I think the really smart Democrats out there, I have a contrarian take on this because the conventional take is that, oh, they want to run against Trump.

00:32:57.000 They think he's easier to beat.

00:32:59.000 I think some people do believe that.

00:33:01.000 But I don't think that is a consensus belief in the American Democrat cabal.

00:33:05.000 I think there's debate.

00:33:06.000 I think that there's some people in the American Democrat regime community, and they say, I don't know, this guy gets people to show up to vote that nobody ever has been able to do on the Republican side.

00:33:17.000 I think they look at somebody like DeSantis, and I think this is an unfair categorization, being someone where they could just attack like Mitt Romney and run over.

00:33:26.000 And remember, Donald Trump has won the presidency before, so it's unfair to say he can't win it again.

00:33:33.000 So Reid Hoffman is saying that he is thinking about how to boost DeSantis over Trump in the primary.

00:33:40.000 Sources say he believes it's worth the risk, even if he helps elect DeSantis in the process.

00:33:45.000 And that really is an interesting question, right?

00:33:48.000 Is will the Democrats involve themselves into this Republican primary?

00:33:58.000 It will even matter, though.

00:33:59.000 And so he would rather have DeSantis as president than Trump at all costs.

00:34:05.000 That's Reid Hoffman.

00:34:06.000 And Reid Hoffman is again a very powerful multi-billionaire Democrat donor, gives away a bunch of money, founded LinkedIn.

00:34:12.000 That shows how big of a threat Donald Trump is actually to the regime.

00:34:15.000 Why is Donald Trump a threat?

00:34:17.000 Because when he talks like this, people lose their mind.

00:34:23.000 When Donald Trump starts to talk about the biggest threat to America, Reid Hoffman gets nervous.

00:34:30.000 Play cut 48.

00:34:33.000 Who's the biggest problem, sir? 1.00

00:34:34.000 Is it China?

00:34:35.000 Could it be Russia?

00:34:36.000 Could it be North Korea? 0.96

00:34:37.000 No, I said the biggest problem is from within. 0.93

00:34:40.000 It's these sick radical people from within, because we can handle, if we're smart, we can handle Russia, China. 0.89

00:34:48.000 I did. 0.99

00:34:50.000 The sick, radical people from within. 0.67

00:34:53.000 Abraham Lincoln said the exact same thing. 0.93

00:34:55.000 Reed Hoffman is a bigger threat to America than some of the foreign adversaries that we're told to hate.

00:35:02.000 Reid Hoffman is actively funding the trans stuff, the LGBT stuff, the Democrat Party, the Pritzker family, the Soros family, Lorene Powell Jobs, Mackenzie Bezos. 0.53

00:35:13.000 Those people are a greater threat to America than aspects of the Russian Federation is to America. 0.98

00:35:22.000 You're not allowed to say that, but it's totally true. 0.96

00:35:24.000 Lorene Powell Jobs and George Soros and Mackenzie Bezos and Reid Hoffman are a bigger threat than Vladimir Putin.

00:35:32.000 I'm not saying Vladimir Putin's a good person, but they're actively trying to destroy the country and they're doing a good job of it.

00:35:38.000 Lincoln said, quote, at what point then is the approach of danger to be expected?

00:35:42.000 I answer: if it ever reaches us, it must spring up amongst us.

00:35:47.000 If it cannot come from abroad, if destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher.

00:35:54.000 As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time or die by suicide.

00:36:01.000 Donald Trump is pointing out how the Democrats are trying to make America commit suicide.
