Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - President Trump Talks Immigration & War WIth Tim Pool w- Trump & Kash Patel | Timcast IRL

00:00:02.000 We are here at the Libertarian Party National Convention.

00:00:12.000 We have Kash Patel, who will be joining us in the first portion of this show, so we can talk about policy, Planch 2024, what's going on in government, and what we'd like to see.

00:00:22.000 And then later on, we'll be joined by President Donald Trump.

00:00:26.000 It is an honor and a privilege to be able to host him.

00:00:29.000 As you can probably assume, he's a very busy guy, so we're only going to be able to have him for about a half an hour, and it's going to be in the later portion of the show.

00:00:36.000 But stick around, because I have many, many questions for him, and I think it's going to be an absolutely amazing conversation.

00:01:28.000 Hey, great to be with y'all.

00:01:30.000 Happy Memorial Day to all our veterans and thank you for everyone that served and I am excited about the conference to discuss that and also look forward to you and President Trump's discussion.

00:01:41.000 It's going to be fire, I think.

00:01:43.000 And I'm going to selfishly plug the book that Donald Trump made a bestseller.

00:01:46.000 He called this the Roadmap to 2024, the Deep State Destruction Wrecking Ball.

00:01:50.000 And cool announcement, Steve Bannon and I have joined forces to make this into a movie.

00:02:01.000 Right on.

00:02:02.000 And I definitely want to talk to you about the Plans for the future.

00:02:07.000 I'll keep it light as possible because, you know, obviously, you know, later on the show when I'm able to sit down with the president, I have a lot of questions about law enforcement and things that we'd like to see.

00:02:18.000 But I know that you have a lot of experience.

00:02:19.000 We'll load you up.

00:02:20.000 Yeah, you've got a lot of experience in that area.

00:02:22.000 So we got Luke hanging out.

00:02:23.000 Yeah, that's going to be a very interesting conversation.

00:02:25.000 My name is Luke Hradowski of youtube.com forward slash we are change.

00:02:28.000 Today I'm wearing a shirt that reads unblank blank $7,500 a load.

00:02:43.000 And thank you so much for having me.

00:02:44.000 This should be a great conversation.

00:02:45.000 We got Phil hanging out.

00:02:46.000 Hello, everybody.

00:02:47.000 My name is Phil Labonte.

00:02:48.000 I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains.

00:02:51.000 I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary.

00:02:53.000 How you doing, Hannah-Claire?

00:02:54.000 I'm good.

00:02:54.000 It's fun to be back.

00:02:55.000 Happy Memorial Day to everyone.

00:02:56.000 I'm Hannah-Claire Brimel.

00:02:57.000 I'm a writer for scnr.com.

00:02:59.000 That's Scanner News.

00:02:59.000 Let's start.

00:03:01.000 You know, so I was just out at the presidential debates that they're having at the LP National.

00:03:06.000 Really excited.

00:03:07.000 I think this is one of the biggest parties in politics, but not political parties.

00:03:13.000 I mean, like the people hanging out, the conversations you've got with Trump being here, with RFK Jr.

00:03:18.000 here.

00:03:19.000 It's a big conversation.

00:03:20.000 Now, out there in that, while they're having this debate, so for those that may have watched, this is, you know, several days before.

00:03:28.000 I think it was Josh Smith called for the arrest of everyone.

00:03:32.000 He said the head of Moderna, the head of Pfizer, Fauci, and then he said Trump and Biden.

00:03:38.000 Whoa! 0.71

00:03:38.000 And everyone... That's gonna get some eyeballs. 0.71

00:03:40.000 That's gonna get some eyeballs, so...

00:03:42.000 I don't know.

00:03:43.000 I'm not a big fan of the arrest Trump thing.

00:03:48.000 Yeah, clearly.

00:03:49.000 I mean, the Democrats are already doing it, right?

00:03:51.000 Exactly.

00:03:52.000 So we might as well arrest everyone now.

00:03:54.000 But, you know, in that vein, the one thing that I really want to see is, I want to see arrests.

00:04:01.000 I want to see corrupt individuals who lied under oath.

00:04:04.000 The Russiagate hoax.

00:04:07.000 The Burisma hoax.

00:04:09.000 What's what's what's the probability we get some legitimate accountability?

00:04:13.000 So I think what you want to see is that accountability, right?

00:04:16.000 And the best form of accountability comes in the form of an arrest, especially when the people that are supposed to be watching over the law are the ones breaking it.

00:04:24.000 And it's been a cycle we've seen happen since Russiagate, since Jan 6, since the 51 Intel letters, since Hunter Biden's laptop.

00:04:31.000 And the list goes on and people keep getting frustrated and rightfully so when the government gangsters like James Comey and Merrick Garland and those guys get to break the law and issue unlawful violations of federal statute to go after political opponents.

00:04:48.000 So I think And President Trump has been, only Trump speaks for Trump, but in my opinion, I think President Trump has been very vocal on his positions on being the largest victim of that deep state prosecution.

00:05:00.000 I mean, to your point, 91 counts on indictments and counting, maybe.

00:05:04.000 We don't know what's next.

00:05:06.000 And they're failing, and he's exposing the two-tier system of justice.

00:05:09.000 So what you need is an FBI DAG and AG to start that process.

00:05:13.000 If those three guys aren't in lockstep, you're not going to have accountability.

00:05:18.000 You know, Trump's gagged.

00:05:19.000 I'm not.

00:05:20.000 You're not.

00:05:21.000 I was there Monday.

00:05:24.000 So this is our opportunity before we get into the deeper conversation with the man himself.

00:05:29.000 Cohen stole $30,000.

00:05:31.000 That's unbelievable.

00:05:32.000 Then they reimbursed taxes on top, so it's $60,000.

00:05:38.000 So in this New York trial, they say that he got a total of $420,000 paid under the assumption this was legitimate payment for the work that he was doing.

00:05:48.000 But the defense's argument is that Donald Trump did not know Michael Cohen was paying Stormy Daniels.

00:05:53.000 Cohen took out a home equity loan to pay it himself, told Costello that was the case, then asked for a reimbursement for legal expenses to which the Trump organization, it was, who was it, was it Allen?

00:06:04.000 Weisselberg.

00:06:05.000 Weisselberg.

00:06:06.000 What's his name?

00:06:07.000 Weisselberg.

00:06:08.000 I thought that, I didn't want to get it wrong.

00:06:10.000 So he's like, okay, I'll pay you and I'll cover the taxes for you.

00:06:13.000 That means that Cohen stole probably a quarter million dollars.

00:06:16.000 Oh, at least.

00:06:16.000 Listen, let's rewind the tape a little bit and remind the world what Hillary did.

00:06:20.000 Not to go back to Russiagate, but everything seems to, right?

00:06:23.000 Hillary Clinton took publicly raised funds, $10 million, hit it as a legal expense, gave it to a law firm and said, go out and hire Fusion GPS and create the Steele dossier, which is actually illegal to use campaign finance dollars. 0.99

00:06:38.000 That's not only a felony, it's a civil fraud violation.

00:06:41.000 The FBI never charged her.

00:06:42.000 In this case versus Trump, right, he uses his own money for an actual legal expense.

00:06:47.000 There's nothing illegal about that.

00:06:49.000 Right.

00:06:49.000 But the two-tier system of justice rocks on.

00:06:51.000 Well, this is the hilarious thing.

00:06:52.000 In New York, they said that it's a state law that says you can't corruptly influence an election.

00:06:58.000 So the only reason, like in the event that Trump knew he was actually paying off Stormy Daniels, the only reason that would be illegal is if Trump was doing it to corruptly influence a state election, which he's not, which it's beyond the statute of limitations.

00:07:14.000 There's nothing here, and we know for a fact Cohen has admitted to stealing at the minimum $30,000.

00:07:21.000 Minimum?

00:07:21.000 Minimum.

00:07:22.000 And if you add in the tax reimbursement, $60,000, and if we believe the defense, which should be made by prosecutors when they're prosecuting Cohen, it's a quarter million dollars.

00:07:34.000 And it's money laundering.

00:07:35.000 So look, I was a public defender and national security prosecutor.

00:07:37.000 I tried 60 jury trials to verdict.

00:07:39.000 When I was watching Michael Cohen last week implode the prosecution's case on the witness stand, I was just completely beside me.

00:07:47.000 He literally, as you said, for the first time that I've heard, Admitted to six more felonies that the DOJ, the District Attorney's Office, and the Southern District of New York all knew about for four years, and none of them prosecuted him for any of it.

00:08:03.000 I got a question for you.

00:08:05.000 So you're a prosecutor.

00:08:06.000 Yeah.

00:08:06.000 Have you ever attempted to get a felony suspect to flip to get a misdemeanor?

00:08:13.000 It's unheard of!

00:08:15.000 But as if that wasn't bad enough, the defense calls one witness, Bob Costello.

00:08:19.000 I've never seen stuff like this in a courtroom.

00:08:21.000 He goes out and exonerates the defendant.

00:08:24.000 And as you said, the prosecution knew that information.

00:08:26.000 They knew that they should never brought this case.

00:08:28.000 He literally said, Michael Cohen came to me, Bob Costello, as his attorney and said 10 times, I have absolutely nothing on Donald Trump.

00:08:36.000 That's what Michael Cohen told the DOJ, the FBI, the district attorney's office and everyone.

00:08:41.000 As it relates specifically to the Stormy Daniels matter.

00:08:44.000 And then you know what the judge did?

00:08:45.000 He kicked us all out of the courtroom!

00:08:47.000 He literally kicked the entire courtroom out!

00:08:49.000 I've never seen anything like this!

00:08:51.000 The media went nuts!

00:08:53.000 I mean, bonkers!

00:08:55.000 They were screaming at each other, the cops in the courtroom didn't know what to do.

00:08:58.000 Wasn't Dershowitz there and he said it was the craziest moment that he has ever witnessed in his whole legal career?

00:09:03.000 Oh man, it was, Alan and I were like, and obviously he's one of the brightest.

00:09:06.000 And this is the guy who represented, didn't he work with O.J.?

00:09:10.000 He was O.J.' 's lawyer.

00:09:13.000 And this is the wildest thing that he saw in court?

00:09:15.000 In 60 years.

00:09:16.000 And the judge, you should see what happened behind closed doors, we got to stay.

00:09:20.000 And the judge was basically scolding Costello, saying, don't, don't, you can't stare me down.

00:09:25.000 And Costello, who I would remind you is a former federal prosecutor, one of the head guys at the Sun District of New York, a career defense attorney. He was just looking at the judge like, WTF

00:09:35.000 dude? Like, what are you saying? 0.98

00:09:38.000 Because the judge is like, you're shutting me down. He's like, no, I'm not. He's like,

00:09:41.000 you're arguing with me. It was hilarious. Like, you know, normally you object and then there's

00:09:45.000 a basis for the objection and then the judge like ponders it. In this case,

00:09:48.000 the prosecutors just stopped objecting.

00:09:51.000 The judge just said, sustain, sustain.

00:09:53.000 I've never seen anything.

00:09:54.000 I was like, where's the object?

00:09:55.000 Like, you couldn't get an answer out, which is why Bob Costello was like, do you want me to answer this?

00:09:59.000 Or do you want them to prosecute me for lying under oath because you, the judge, won't let me answer the question?

00:10:05.000 Yep.

00:10:05.000 And that's what he wanted.

00:10:07.000 I think what they do want is they want to send a message to any witnesses that they'll just claim it was a lie under oath.

00:10:12.000 They will go after you for perjury no matter what.

00:10:14.000 I mean, you look at Peter Navarro, you look at They will get you to testify, and this is why I think it's imperative that Bannon resists this trial.

00:10:24.000 Yeah, his trial's next.

00:10:25.000 In front of this judge.

00:10:26.000 This is what we saw with Flynn.

00:10:28.000 They basically play this game where they'll ask you a question that if you misremember, it's a lie instead of, I don't know.

00:10:36.000 It could be something as innocuous as they need it to be.

00:10:40.000 What did you have for breakfast?

00:10:42.000 What did I have?

00:10:42.000 Scrambled eggs?

00:10:44.000 Yeah.

00:10:44.000 You had over easy, you son of a... No, your point is spot on.

00:10:47.000 Everybody's like, Donald Trump's got to testify.

00:10:49.000 Donald Trump's got to testify.

00:10:50.000 And in a normal constitutional courtroom where he has that right to do so and not be in fear of being baselessly prosecuted, the reason, and I'm not speaking for him, but I would opine legally, is that I wouldn't put Donald Trump on the witness stand because they'll ask him one question about something he did in his past and they'll say, you lied, we're prosecuting you for that.

00:11:10.000 They're gonna- You lied, we're prosecuting for that.

00:11:11.000 You know what they're gonna do?

00:11:12.000 And this is why Trump shouldn't testify, and why- it's why he- good he didn't.

00:11:15.000 They're gonna say something like the prosecution's gonna have him on the stand and say, uh, Mr. Trump.

00:11:20.000 When you illegally paid Michael Cohen to cover up your crime, did you do it on Monday or Tuesday?

00:11:26.000 Right.

00:11:26.000 And he's gonna go, I didn't.

00:11:28.000 The judge is gonna say, answer the question, Mr. Trump, Monday or Tuesday.

00:11:31.000 And Trump's gonna say, but I didn't do this.

00:11:32.000 It's Monday or Tuesday, answer the question.

00:11:34.000 And you bring up another point.

00:11:36.000 Not only would the district attorney's office charge him with every felony for lying under oath, that judge specifically has contempt of court powers.

00:11:44.000 Yeah.

00:11:44.000 So the judge, you saw what he did to Costello, the world did, right?

00:11:47.000 I mean, he literally did something nobody, including Alan Dershowitz, has ever seen.

00:11:50.000 What do you think he's going to do to Trump?

00:11:52.000 I mean, he's already threatened him with jail time, right?

00:11:53.000 He's going to literally be like, I'm holding you in contempt.

00:11:55.000 A million dollars.

00:11:55.000 I'm holding you in contempt.

00:11:56.000 You're going to jail for a week.

00:11:57.000 And I want to just show this story briefly, just to make sure everybody... I was like seven feet away from that.

00:12:02.000 Anybody who might not understand, I mean, this is politico.

00:12:06.000 Are you staring me down right now?

00:12:08.000 Key Trump defense witness draws judge's wrath.

00:12:12.000 This is unprecedented absurdity and insanity that we're seeing in this court case, and it's worrying to me that it's mainly an issue for politicos.

00:12:24.000 People who are paying attention to politics, who are watching the news, but for your everyday average American, they don't know what this stuff is.

00:12:31.000 And so you see people on the street get asked the question, and they'll be like, yeah, I don't know, maybe Trump did it.

00:12:36.000 If you were actually watching this on a day-to-day, it's like they were reporting in numerous publications the TV drama moment when Michael Cohen was caught lying about the phone call.

00:12:46.000 He said, I was on the phone call talking to them about paying off Sterling Daniels.

00:12:49.000 And then the prosecution, I'm sorry, the defense says, you were actually talking about a prank phone call, were you not?

00:12:54.000 That was a lie, and then here's the proof.

00:12:56.000 And then they reported a pin drop moment like it was a TV movie.

00:13:00.000 That's how insane this court case is.

00:13:02.000 Well, that's why I thought it was good that Trump didn't take the stand.

00:13:05.000 Right.

00:13:05.000 They've already been on trial for five weeks.

00:13:08.000 The jury is reportedly exhausted.

00:13:10.000 There's no reason to put him in a position where they can just ask him about all kinds of things and trap him into other crimes. 0.99

00:13:15.000 But also, like, this is dumb. 0.99

00:13:17.000 We all know it. 0.98

00:13:17.000 Let's just get this over with. 0.98

00:13:19.000 I think that was one of the best moves that the defense made, because the prosecution would have dragged out cross for another six weeks.

00:13:24.000 We've been hearing about this forever.

00:13:26.000 And that's that's what they wanted, because the judge in this case and the prosecutors know that they'll never publicly admit if they jail Donald Trump, he's going to win overnight.

00:13:37.000 So if Donald Trump is found guilty, which because it's a rigged system, there's a likelihood that he might, they're going to have to allow Donald Trump to stay out on bond while he appeals this bogus trial.

00:13:48.000 Otherwise, this country is going to go nuts.

00:13:51.000 Well, Trump got the hate endorsement from Cenk Uygur.

00:13:56.000 It's not really an endorsement, but Cenk said Trump is going to win.

00:14:00.000 Buckle up. 0.96

00:14:01.000 And the reason I say it's the hate endorsement is that if I tweeted Trump is going to win, buckle up, I support Trump.

00:14:07.000 I'm voting for him.

00:14:08.000 So it's seen as Trump's going to win, baby, buckle up.

00:14:11.000 Cenk Uygur says it and he's giving a warning to the progressives.

00:14:14.000 But I call it the hate endorsement because he's basically saying to the left, we're with how?

00:14:19.000 I mean, what did Biden just say the other day?

00:14:21.000 Pacalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackalackal But, you know, on your thing, you heard what James Comey did, what this hate guy did.

00:14:45.000 Same thing, right? 0.52

00:14:46.000 James Comey went on some clown show two days ago and basically said, it doesn't matter who you are, what kind of human being are you have to vote Biden.

00:14:52.000 And he goes and James Comey, the director of the FBI who architected Russiagate and signed the bogus search warrant.

00:14:58.000 He's the one telling the world right now you have to vote Biden because he's in fear that Trump is going to weaponize government.

00:15:04.000 I mean, how rich is that? 0.98

00:15:06.000 It's ridiculous. 0.90

00:15:07.000 Well, he's in fear that Trump will actually bring accountability in government. 0.93

00:15:11.000 My attitude with this is...

00:15:14.000 Does Trump want revenge?

00:15:16.000 If I was Trump, I'd want revenge.

00:15:18.000 Unfortunately for these deep state cronies, these people who have lied over and over again to the American people, revenge and accountability overlap tremendously, and so I'll take it.

00:15:27.000 And this is why I want to see arrests, I want to see firings.

00:15:31.000 I think anybody who is party to the general corruption To the Russiagate stuff, these intelligent agencies, they should be asked to resign at the lowest level, fired at the higher level, criminally prosecuted at the corrupt level.

00:15:48.000 What I mean to say is, those who were corrupt should be in jail.

00:15:51.000 Those that knew what was going on and helped facilitate but wasn't really party to the worst ongoings, terminated immediately.

00:15:58.000 And those who are just underneath them and maybe filing the paperwork, I'm going to ask for your resignation peacefully.

00:16:02.000 You need to get out of here.

00:16:03.000 Yeah, look, can I add a couple of things to that?

00:16:06.000 That I recommended to President Trump, and whether he'll do it or not is up to him, obviously.

00:16:10.000 But immediately, you revoke, forever, everyone's security clearance.

00:16:15.000 Everyone's security clearance that ever participated in an illegal act that was not prosecuted.

00:16:20.000 Everybody that signed the 51 Intel letter, I'm talking three secretaries of defense and CIA and NSA, deputies and everybody.

00:16:27.000 Because what the world doesn't understand is those swamp monkeys rely on that security clearance to go out and get their 10 million dollar payday in the defense industrial complex. 1.00

00:16:37.000 And do you know who is the sole arbiter of security clearances?

00:16:40.000 The President of the United States.

00:16:41.000 But this is why... And you pull it.

00:16:43.000 Forever, though.

00:16:43.000 So they can't make their way back.

00:16:45.000 I mean, that's the issue.

00:16:46.000 Well, this is one of the reasons why they're saying vote Biden.

00:16:48.000 But I think more importantly is they probably go home every night and start sweating, staring, lying awake late at night thinking, if Trump wins, I go to jail.

00:16:57.000 Well, yeah, maybe.

00:16:58.000 If Trump wins, maybe I go to jail.

00:16:59.000 But if Trump wins, I lose my bankroll.

00:17:02.000 That's what they're fearing the most.

00:17:03.000 All these people come in and out.

00:17:05.000 It's not a Republican or Democratic thing.

00:17:07.000 The Rod Rosensteins of the world, the Gina Haspels of the world, all these people are making money off of breaking the law and using it to weaponize it against Donald Trump.

00:17:16.000 And their fear is that since they've become famous, James Comey, on a certain side of the country with certain political beliefs, their fear is their till, their cash ATM is going to be turned off and then they'll get prosecuted.

00:17:29.000 Now, what about the next tier beyond criminal prosecutions is Schedule F and terminations across the board.

00:17:37.000 We're here at the Libertarian Party National Convention, and if Trump goes out there and says, I'm gonna fire them all, the whole crowd just cheers, just erupts.

00:17:46.000 Look, here's the thing.

00:17:47.000 When I was his deputy for DNI or when I was running DOD for him, people think it's a myth.

00:17:53.000 They're like, you can't fire government employees.

00:17:54.000 I'm like, why not?

00:17:56.000 Well, it's a tradition.

00:17:58.000 What?

00:17:58.000 It's a terrible tradition.

00:17:59.000 We give up our traditions all the time.

00:18:01.000 Let's get rid of this one.

00:18:01.000 It's like the DOJ telling me it's a tradition not to prosecute presidents for any presidential issue, except Donald Trump.

00:18:06.000 Right.

00:18:07.000 We fired a ton of people.

00:18:09.000 We eliminated a lot of waste.

00:18:11.000 Nobody said anything.

00:18:12.000 And also, if these people are in violation of internal regulations, which a ton of them have already admitted to during the Biden administration, by going public, by breaking regs, you can fire them.

00:18:24.000 So while you don't need to fire everybody, you could fire a ton of people.

00:18:26.000 You could fire everybody, though.

00:18:31.000 There's a lot of good guys left, and I'm telling you, there's still a lot of good folks left in there.

00:18:36.000 I say the best government is no government, but that's my own personal opinion, so I'm biased.

00:18:41.000 There's a myth that people are like, oh, who's doing the books, you know, the employee books or whatever.

00:18:44.000 We need 4,000 employees to be appointed.

00:18:46.000 When Trump goes in, I was like, where'd you get this 4,000 number?

00:18:50.000 Like, well, every president has said we need 4,000.

00:18:52.000 Why do we need 4,000?

00:18:55.000 Give me 500 good guys.

00:18:56.000 The other 3,500 are the people causing the problems that you end up putting in government.

00:19:00.000 They end up being people like Fiona Hill, or John Bolton, or Mike Pompeo, or Mark Esper, or Gina Haspel, or Rod Rosenstein.

00:19:06.000 I mean, the list goes on.

00:19:07.000 You don't need them all.

00:19:08.000 You know what it is?

00:19:09.000 The way I describe this government program stuff is...

00:19:12.000 Our nation gets a wound.

00:19:14.000 We get a cut on our arm, so we put a bandage over it.

00:19:17.000 What you should do is eventually rip the bandage off, clean it, and see if it's healed.

00:19:21.000 Instead, what we do is we slap another bandage over it, then another bandage over it.

00:19:25.000 These government bureaucrats are basically the only answer government seems to have, I should say 99% of the time, because there are good people like Ron Paul.

00:19:35.000 He was in Congress, he was in government, I get that.

00:19:37.000 But typically it's, who can we hire and how much more can we spend?

00:19:41.000 Sometimes the problem is the spending and is the hiring.

00:19:44.000 It's the person who works in a bureaucratic office who's like, I don't want to lose my job.

00:19:48.000 And so there are perverse incentives to create issues or maintain issues so they don't lose their job.

00:19:56.000 And that right now, I think, is largely with Donald Trump is obviously the right choice for this country right now.

00:20:05.000 And I'm talking about the number one issue for the American people, and that's economics.

00:20:10.000 The second issue that actually rivals the first is immigration.

00:20:14.000 Well, everyone trusts Donald Trump on those two issues.

00:20:17.000 If you want to get into culture war issues on abortion and other things, that's totally fine.

00:20:20.000 We can have that argument.

00:20:21.000 But for the American people right now, they're concerned primarily about, are we going to get the economy going good?

00:20:25.000 And the issue is, for the people who are bureaucrats in government, the economy goes south for them when Trump comes in and they get fired for being bad at their jobs.

00:20:35.000 So now there's a perverse incentive among these people to jam up the system and support, in any way they can, systems that hurt Donald Trump, which means they're hurting the majority of the people of this country who need better leadership when it comes to paying their grocery bill.

00:20:47.000 Yeah, look, this is what the Joe Biden administration is setting up right now.

00:20:51.000 He just released that he's going to sell a million barrels of the American oil reserve, right?

00:20:56.000 He's doing that so gas stays down to three bucks a gallon until Election Day.

00:21:01.000 Down to three. 0.69

00:21:02.000 How ridiculous is that? 0.90

00:21:04.000 What was it when Trump left office? 0.88

00:21:06.000 I think it was $1.80.

00:21:08.000 Oh, right, right.

00:21:08.000 The reserves were full.

00:21:09.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:21:11.000 And there was definitely at least one opportunity for Biden to refill the... But if he does, he buys, prices go up.

00:21:21.000 He is attempting to rip off the American safety net, the American reserve, because he's trying to manipulate the market to try and stay inflated.

00:21:30.000 And he'll say, look at gas prices under me.

00:21:32.000 They're going down!

00:21:33.000 Well, he's doing that with the student loan forgiveness program as well, giving away money that...

00:21:38.000 So I'm still paying off my law school debt because I told the Biden administration, F you, I signed an agreement.

00:21:43.000 I'm going to pay it off.

00:21:44.000 And they sent me an email saying, oh, you've qualified yet again for the student loan forgiveness boondoggle.

00:21:49.000 But people don't understand what it does to inflation.

00:21:52.000 I mean, it spends, it sends our money cratering into an abyss and it costs, I went to the grocery store the other day, it was six bucks for a dozen eggs.

00:21:59.000 I was like, what the hell?

00:22:01.000 Like peanut butter was like four bucks a jar.

00:22:03.000 A loaf of bread was like four and I'm losing it.

00:22:06.000 So the other day, you know, um, this is important for everybody.

00:22:10.000 I asked chat GPT to give me a diet plan.

00:22:12.000 It told me to eat peanut butter and banana.

00:22:14.000 And so I asked, I asked, I said, can someone run and grab me some peanut butter?

00:22:17.000 It was $4 and 60 cents for a small peanut butter.

00:22:21.000 How's a family afford?

00:22:22.000 You know, I grew up eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches at lunch.

00:22:25.000 That's what my family could afford.

00:22:27.000 How's a family affording that?

00:22:28.000 They can't.

00:22:28.000 That's the problem.

00:22:29.000 They can't do anything.

00:22:30.000 And this is why the Biden administration is trying to offer them all these other things.

00:22:34.000 Free things.

00:22:34.000 Student loan forgiveness.

00:22:35.000 But also with student loan, they tried to roll out the FAFSA.

00:22:39.000 They changed all the questions.

00:22:40.000 They're like, It's hundreds too many, it's hard for minority families to figure this out, and then they roll this out, like, here, we're the saviors of you, and then it's all botched. 1.00

00:22:48.000 All of these kids are saying, like, I don't think I can enroll in college because you told me I had aid, now I don't have aid.

00:22:52.000 Like, even the things they think they've got a stranglehold grip on, being like, we're the best at getting people to college, they mess it up constantly.

00:22:59.000 Like, not only are they lying to you, but they're incompetent.

00:23:02.000 You can't just continue down this path for another four years.

00:23:04.000 Well, when Donald Trump was running to be president a few years ago, he was running on auditing the U.S.

00:23:09.000 Federal Reserve System.

00:23:11.000 And I remember hearing about that, and that got my interest in him specifically.

00:23:15.000 When he was president, he wasn't able to achieve that.

00:23:18.000 He did increase the national debt.

00:23:20.000 He did spend a lot of money.

00:23:21.000 Do you think he learned his lesson from his last administration with how much money he spent?

00:23:26.000 Because I haven't seen any kind of rhetoric.

00:23:28.000 And overall, I do think he's going to be better for the economy than Biden.

00:23:31.000 That's clearly the situation, especially with the more kind of populistic

00:23:36.000 policies that he's pushing.

00:23:37.000 But will there be less spending, and will there be kind of a change to the previous policies that did increase the

00:23:45.000 debt?

00:23:46.000 Yeah, I mean, I think what you saw was Donald Trump spent in areas that weren't spent on before, that needed to be

00:23:51.000 spent on, to do things like build a border wall. But he also went

00:23:55.000 overseas and took our money back.

00:23:57.000 And I think you'll see a big windfall from going over to tariffing the Chinese and the CCP, or going to NATO and saying, you're spending your money, and we, America, are not, and things like the UN need to get slashed in terms of funding.

00:24:11.000 But didn't Biden say that a tariff on the Chinese was a tax on the American people?

00:24:16.000 Just a couple years later, he then implemented tariffs.

00:24:19.000 Just a couple days ago he did.

00:24:20.000 I'm telling you, a couple years after Trump does this, he says, he's just taxing the American people.

00:24:25.000 A few years later, he's like, I'm gonna put tariffs in place.

00:24:28.000 I mean, it's the ultimate hypocrisy, right?

00:24:30.000 Whether it's the gasoline thing, or the food price thing, or the student loan thing.

00:24:34.000 Remember his, I think it was one of his State of the Union addresses, was literally just, it was like a Trump speech.

00:24:38.000 It was, I think, two years ago.

00:24:40.000 He got heavily criticized for literally just saying a bunch of Trump talking points, and people were like, he's just lifting this.

00:24:45.000 Yeah, this is one week ago from the White House.

00:24:47.000 President Biden takes action to protect American workers and business from Chinese unfair trade practices.

00:24:54.000 And I remember when Trump did it, the mainstream media lit him up for it.

00:24:58.000 What do you mean you're going to tariff goods from?

00:24:59.000 And it was a leverage point.

00:25:01.000 It wasn't a threat.

00:25:02.000 It was a leverage point to say you, the CCP, Stop doing all the illegal stuff against Americans and our allies.

00:25:07.000 Stop spying on us.

00:25:08.000 Stop spoofing our data.

00:25:09.000 Stop stealing our information and stop egging on bad actors like Russia, North Korea and everybody else.

00:25:15.000 And you know what happened?

00:25:15.000 It worked.

00:25:16.000 And also our coffers got a lot fuller because of those tariffs.

00:25:19.000 So it's a leverage point.

00:25:21.000 You use it in national security diplomacy as that.

00:25:24.000 I love this.

00:25:25.000 There's two worldviews in the Biden establishment, Uniparty, whatever you want to call it, in the MAGA Trump populist.

00:25:33.000 It seems like Donald Trump's view is, hey, if we secure our borders, bring jobs to America, make our chips here, make our cars here, it's going to be great for the American worker.

00:25:42.000 There's going to be jobs, wealth and prosperity for Americans.

00:25:44.000 And then the worldview of the Democratic Party and the Republican neocon establishment is, how about we don't do any of that?

00:25:52.000 We build military bases all over the world.

00:25:56.000 Go to war with foreign countries, dictate where we build oil pipelines, and our foreign conquest will just give us the rights over the petrodollar, etc., and then we'll artificially inflate the currency, etc., etc.

00:26:10.000 That's, when we're looking at the war in Ukraine, when we're looking at the conflict in the Red Sea, when we're looking at Taiwan, when we're looking at, I mean, invading Iraq and Afghanistan, going back to the Bush administration, the unit party of the United States has been, instead of having Americans get good jobs, support their families, let's just drop bombs on other countries to have control over oil.

00:26:32.000 Well, look, Ukraine, I've always said this, and it's part of what I talk about in the book, the defense industrial complex does a lot of good.

00:26:38.000 But they are the most evil empire that owns all of Washington, D.C.

00:26:42.000 and this unit party that you talk about.

00:26:43.000 War is great for them. 1.00

00:26:45.000 War is the best thing for them and everyone they own in Washington and everyone they're going to give a job to.

00:26:50.000 I'll give you an example.

00:26:51.000 When we fired Mark Esper out of the Trump administration for not following the lawful commands of the commander in chief, you know what he did?

00:26:57.000 He went and got a 12 million dollar payday at Raytheon.

00:27:00.000 Okay, so they're just lying in wait.

00:27:03.000 In the Ukraine, right, we have given the Ukraine... If we were to stop, as the United States government, and just stop and make surface-to-air missiles for the next seven years, that gets America's stockpiles back to neutral. 0.59

00:27:15.000 So if someone attacked us right now, we don't have it, and we can't print it, and we can't make it, but the Defense Industrial Complex knows I've got billing for the next 20 years.

00:27:22.000 It doesn't matter if there's a Republican or Democrat in there.

00:27:25.000 And so that's why the Ukraine's the modern-day Afghanistan. 0.98

00:27:28.000 And that's why these people are like, you gotta print money, you gotta print money, you gotta print money.

00:27:31.000 And it doesn't matter if they're Republican or Democrats, because they're owned by the DoD industrial complex.

00:27:36.000 And that thing needs to be slashed. 0.98

00:27:38.000 Yeah.

00:27:38.000 Big time.

00:27:39.000 Yeah, no, no, I actually described Ukraine as the Afghanistan of Europe, because there's a lot of parallels there.

00:27:45.000 There's always a lot of conflict there.

00:27:46.000 And as soon as the Afghanistan was over, it was like the regime needed another war to justify a lot of their kind of more nefarious secret black ops activities. 0.73

00:27:54.000 And now we have the Ukraine war, which has kind of propped up.

00:27:57.000 Donald Trump did spend a lot on the military, and according to Mike Johnson, it was essentially Donald Trump that recently helped pass this larger Ukraine military spending bill, essentially making it a larger loan component.

00:28:09.000 Trump was kind of bragging about this a little bit as well.

00:28:12.000 A lot of people saw this as something that raised a lot of questions about what his kind of politicking behind the scenes is.

00:28:20.000 What did you make of that kind of larger move since Mike Johnson and Lindsey Graham are kind of congratulating him on allowing Ukraine to now have 60 billion dollars from us?

00:28:30.000 From a political standpoint, Trump's in an almost impossible position.

00:28:34.000 He's trying to win the presidency, and he's also trying so the Republicans don't lose the House.

00:28:38.000 What do we have, like a one-seat majority?

00:28:40.000 Two-seat majority?

00:28:40.000 Yeah, basically.

00:28:41.000 Shrinking.

00:28:41.000 Shrinking soon.

00:28:42.000 I understand from a policy perspective why the conservative movement, the MAGA movement, is so ticked off about Ukraine and everything else.

00:28:49.000 But what is Trump going to do?

00:28:50.000 Go out and blow up Mike Johnson in the world stage and lose the majority?

00:28:54.000 And then we have no levers in government until November?

00:28:56.000 Like, we have to build We have to figure out a way to build on that and what I keep telling people I told people was that last night in North Carolina GOP was we and I'm speaking for us the MAGA movement can't be 100% 100% of the time like there's gonna have to be a give and take and I do think there is a there's probably a lot of fear with

00:29:15.000 If the Republicans do lose the House majority, that thin line, Democrats are going to go nuclear against Trump right now.

00:29:23.000 Right.

00:29:23.000 And that's that's the brilliant part of it.

00:29:25.000 Right there.

00:29:26.000 There are egging us on to try to oust the next speaker of the House so that we lose in November the House of Representatives.

00:29:34.000 Did you like Mike Johnson as a speaker?

00:29:36.000 Did you think he was a good choice?

00:29:38.000 I thought at the time he was a really good choice.

00:29:39.000 I've known Mike a long time.

00:29:40.000 Would you have rather had Kevin McCarthy?

00:29:44.000 No, absolutely not.

00:29:46.000 For me, politically, Jim Jordan would have been an interesting choice.

00:29:48.000 I think Jim Jordan would be the best in that position.

00:29:50.000 But politically speaking, though, if the funding wouldn't have happened for Ukraine, the whole conflict would have blown up in the Democrats face and everyone would be pointing the fingers at the Democrats, at Joe Biden for failing and creating another Afghanistan.

00:30:03.000 And then Trump would have that larger political victory, being like, look at these guys, look at the mess that they caused in Ukraine, look how they screwed these people over, we didn't give them an inch here, they're the ones that prolonged this war, they're the ones that made it that much longer, instead of, you know, just kind of capitulating a little bit.

00:30:21.000 I thought politically that would be the more advantageous move to make.

00:30:24.000 I mean, I'm sure there's a few different ways to have sliced it, but Like, we keep getting Republican rhinos, and I forget the guy's name in upstate New York, who, like, literally resigned the day before there could be another special election to refill that, to backfill that seat, on purpose.

00:30:41.000 So he, Trump's got a, he's thinking, like, three-dimensional chess.

00:30:44.000 I got to counter that and the next person that might think to do that in June.

00:30:47.000 Or July.

00:30:48.000 Well, to be fair, I think we're on like the sixth dimension of Trump's chess playing now.

00:30:52.000 The memes have escalated.

00:30:54.000 It's getting complicated.

00:30:55.000 It's just complicated.

00:30:56.000 I do want to say one fact to your audience, though, that when I was chief of staff at DoD, this was the one thing that was just like blew my mind.

00:31:01.000 So Germany, not 1945 Germany, 2024 Germany.

00:31:06.000 Do you know how many bases we have in Germany?

00:31:09.000 And do you know how much of the economy the U.S.

00:31:11.000 DoD budget in Germany is?

00:31:13.000 I know it's a lot today. 0.89

00:31:15.000 We are 5% of their freaking GDP. 0.89

00:31:17.000 Wow. 0.84

00:31:18.000 Of Germany's GDP.

00:31:20.000 The number one economy in Europe.

00:31:23.000 We never stopped occupying them. 0.69

00:31:26.000 I'm all for having troops overseas, but that's ridiculous.

00:31:29.000 How many troops do we have in Germany?

00:31:30.000 Do you know the full number?

00:31:32.000 Over 55,000.

00:31:32.000 Do you know how many we have in South Korea?

00:31:34.000 30-something.

00:31:35.000 34,000.

00:31:35.000 I'm all for having our troops overseas.

00:31:39.000 Well, but Korea is different.

00:31:41.000 Right, obviously.

00:31:42.000 It's a very important country, we all respect it.

00:31:44.000 But you guys were talking about like, DOD budgets and everything, and the way you trim this, and look, I'm all for having the most gangster operation when it comes to national security, but we gotta trim.

00:31:53.000 Bring them home.

00:31:54.000 Bring the troops home.

00:31:55.000 That's what Rand Paul ran on, and that's why he was able to get more support from the military than any other presidential candidate when he ran.

00:32:00.000 I just Googled it, this is from February 2nd, 2024, and it says there's 35K in Germany, 24K in South Korea, 53K in Japan.

00:32:12.000 We occupied these countries, and we never left.

00:32:15.000 Never left.

00:32:16.000 And I want to stress this, Japan was defeated in World War II, the U.S.

00:32:21.000 occupied Japan, and never left.

00:32:24.000 There's a whole division, the 3rd Marine Division was based out of Okinawa.

00:32:29.000 whole division there's only three marine divisions there's there's there's Camp Lejeune there's 29

00:32:34.000 palms in southern California and there's Okinawa now it's not it's not um I think they've moved

00:32:41.000 the third marine division I don't think it's there now but it was there for a long time for

00:32:45.000 the longest time the whole division at a certain point I'm like yeah we can leave Germany like the

00:32:50.000 iron curtain has fallen Let's accept this number.

00:32:52.000 Okay, maybe, can we have like 5,000 there?

00:32:54.000 Do we need 30?

00:32:55.000 Do we need any?

00:32:56.000 I mean, don't all international military bases ultimately... We don't need none.

00:33:00.000 How about zero?

00:33:01.000 I'm gonna go on my own island on this one.

00:33:03.000 We need we need some because we can't operate the national security platform in this modern

00:33:08.000 day world if we don't have any of our guys on the ground in certain locations doing.

00:33:12.000 So Asia is by Angela Merkel.

00:33:15.000 But Angela Merkel deserves to be spied on like she was previously before by the US intelligence 0.98

00:33:20.000 is I agree.

00:33:21.000 I don't I don't know about those numbers, but I agree.

00:33:23.000 But Philly full for it is a good point there.

00:33:26.000 Like one of the problems that we had before 9-11 was the fact that we had no human intelligence.

00:33:31.000 There was no context.

00:33:32.000 There weren't people in like in those places that you could talk to.

00:33:36.000 Like there was nobody nobody for the State Department to actually discuss like any kind

00:33:42.000 of policy or anything like that.

00:33:43.000 So or like find out who knew what.

00:33:46.000 That's why it took so long to to get bin Laden. 0.94

00:33:48.000 And so there was no human intelligence.

00:33:50.000 So there's there's an argument in London.

00:33:52.000 What?

00:33:53.000 I got questions about that.

00:33:55.000 Yeah, you want to talk about that too? We don't have to go down the rabbit hole

00:33:58.000 They just changed the story five times and you know he was a kidney dialysis

00:34:03.000 like so but like you know like the the there is an argument that there is there is a

00:34:09.000 use for Military the military to have some kind of context, but you

00:34:14.000 don't need to have a full like the full like US What?

00:34:18.000 How many foreign military bases are there in the United States?

00:34:20.000 with the amount of air power that the US has with the capabilities of the Navy and stuff

00:34:25.000 that we have, we can reach most places.

00:34:28.000 I understand, you know, inside Asia is really, like Asia is a big continent.

00:34:31.000 I get that there are limitations, but still, like, we don't need to have military bases

00:34:35.000 all over the world.

00:34:36.000 Can I just ask a question real quick?

00:34:39.000 How many foreign military bases are there in the United States?

00:34:42.000 None.

00:34:43.000 I mean, unless you count the Chinese FBI or the Chinese... 0.98

00:34:46.000 Don't forget those in the farmland they're buying in North Dakota, wherever else.

00:34:50.000 Right, outside of that.

00:34:51.000 It's insane.

00:34:51.000 I'm looking like we got troops in Italy.

00:34:54.000 Oh, Italy.

00:34:54.000 We got some nice shops in Italy.

00:34:55.000 I've been to them.

00:34:57.000 12,400 in Italy?

00:34:58.000 Sweet deal.

00:34:58.000 It's wild to think that the US has military bases in other people's countries.

00:35:02.000 It's crazy to think.

00:35:03.000 We are effectively, we are the world police.

00:35:08.000 I'm not a fan of it.

00:35:10.000 I agree with you, and we should stop it, but at least it makes sense to address the reason why, which is nuclear non-proliferation.

00:35:18.000 The point was to deter other countries from developing nuclear weapons, and we're not in that world anymore, and I get it, and we need to stop thinking like the Cold War, but at the very least, To talk about why, so that way the people that are listening understand why.

00:35:33.000 Because most people don't think of things in a Cold War mentality nowadays anymore, or they're unfamiliar with it.

00:35:38.000 So to just say, oh, the U.S.

00:35:39.000 military is in a bunch of bases around the world, people don't know what the thought process was, and they don't understand why.

00:35:45.000 And they don't understand that the point was to not have every country get nuclear weapons, and therefore increase the chances of nuclear war.

00:35:55.000 Oh, your mic's off.

00:35:55.000 Your mic's off.

00:35:56.000 Surge! 0.79

00:35:57.000 Surge! 0.79

00:36:00.000 I feel like I'm being oppressed as a woman.

00:36:01.000 I just have to say it.

00:36:02.000 So where do we actually need bases?

00:36:05.000 Why are we in Germany?

00:36:06.000 Do we actually need to be there?

00:36:07.000 What's critical for national defense?

00:36:09.000 We need them all over the world.

00:36:11.000 We just don't need as many.

00:36:12.000 Where do we need them?

00:36:14.000 They're in Germany because of the larger policies against Russia.

00:36:18.000 We keep them in places like Japan, Korea, Germany.

00:36:20.000 We keep them in spots in the Middle East. 0.50

00:36:22.000 Which ones do you close down?

00:36:24.000 It's just a selection process.

00:36:25.000 Like, you know, I'm not going to go out there and say you close down Germany.

00:36:28.000 We need some bases there.

00:36:29.000 But which ones do we close?

00:36:31.000 You can't close.

00:36:31.000 That's that's where I'm on my own island.

00:36:33.000 You can't close the entire operation.

00:36:36.000 You want to cut it, but also you can't close them?

00:36:38.000 How do you cut it?

00:36:39.000 Yeah.

00:36:39.000 You just reduce them?

00:36:40.000 Yeah.

00:36:41.000 I feel like that you should just close some of them.

00:36:42.000 Do you really need all of them?

00:36:44.000 Oh, you're saying every base.

00:36:45.000 No, yeah, there's tons you can close, but you can't close any one country is what I'm saying.

00:36:49.000 You can't be like, Japan, we're gone.

00:36:52.000 That's my opinion.

00:36:53.000 I don't think you could do that.

00:36:54.000 But you can close a lot of them and shut them down and save a ton of taxpayer money.

00:36:58.000 I mean, this is a collision course that people say, oh, now you're anti-military.

00:37:00.000 I'm like, OK, that's funny.

00:37:02.000 But what Congress needs to do is come in and stop the government growth of these agencies.

00:37:07.000 They go to Congress every year, and I've worked on the Hill, and they say, oh, we're doing so well, we need a thousand more billets, a thousand more employees.

00:37:15.000 And every year over the last 50 years, this is how this growth has happened in DoD land, in Intel land, in whatever.

00:37:21.000 And you need it to pare back.

00:37:23.000 I didn't know we had an Air Force base here.

00:37:26.000 Where is this?

00:37:28.000 Ilha Terseria? 0.82

00:37:30.000 It's our vacation spot, you know?

00:37:32.000 Yeah.

00:37:33.000 Oh, the Azores!

00:37:34.000 Yeah, the Azores.

00:37:35.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:37:36.000 Dude, you gotta see, like, Diego Garcia.

00:37:38.000 Check this out.

00:37:39.000 Here's today's military, showing military bases for Europe and Asia.

00:37:44.000 So these are, we have nothing in France.

00:37:46.000 We've got a lot in Germany.

00:37:46.000 This makes sense.

00:37:49.000 And then let's head over to the Pacific, and we can pull up every single... And then there's also Guam as well, of course.

00:37:56.000 Oh, we got a Coast Guard base.

00:37:57.000 Is that Guam?

00:38:00.000 That doesn't look nearly as dramatic as I remember it looking last time I looked at all the U.S.

00:38:04.000 military bases.

00:38:05.000 But when you look at the military industrial complex, it's not just bases that are kind of key issues of concern.

00:38:11.000 They have the American taxpayer in a stranglehold.

00:38:14.000 There's so much pork.

00:38:15.000 There's so much waste.

00:38:17.000 When we look at what Halliburton did to the American soldiers in Iraq under the leadership of Dick Cheney, it is absolutely criminal what they did to our American U.S.

00:38:27.000 soldiers.

00:38:27.000 The military-industrial complex, with their blank contracts, are literally ripping off their American taxpayer, screwing over the U.S.

00:38:34.000 military, and we are paying them top dollar for what, when we're finding out that a lot of the times they rip us off?

00:38:41.000 Just giving them a blank check.

00:38:42.000 I think this is one of the key issues that I think Donald Trump absolutely needs to address since under his administration he was expanding the military.

00:38:49.000 There needs to be larger accountability.

00:38:51.000 There needs to be larger people coming in and being like, hey, stop ripping off the American taxpayer.

00:38:55.000 We had enough.

00:38:56.000 Stop wasting our money.

00:38:57.000 Well, the good news is the Space Force is only in the U.S.

00:39:00.000 Dude, the Space Force is awesome.

00:39:04.000 Where did they work it on?

00:39:05.000 What's that?

00:39:06.000 Space Force was the one they were putting in Colorado.

00:39:08.000 Then there was a push to put it in Alabama.

00:39:10.000 It's in space!

00:39:11.000 We actually put it in Alabama under President Trump because it's a strategic move.

00:39:16.000 But this is something the Biden administration reversed.

00:39:18.000 They moved it back to Colorado.

00:39:19.000 So basically it's another defense industrial complex land grab, right?

00:39:22.000 We wanted it in a strategic location for reasons that Space Force needed to be in a geographic location that's not Colorado.

00:39:29.000 And Alabama came up and it was good. 0.84

00:39:31.000 It was viable.

00:39:32.000 It was a good option.

00:39:33.000 It was a good pick.

00:39:34.000 And then they came in and said, nope.

00:39:36.000 We're not spending money there, we're spending money in Colorado.

00:39:38.000 It's the opposite of what they did before with the wildlife services, right?

00:39:41.000 We're supposed to have a headquarters in Colorado and then Biodiversity is like, no, they should be in D.C.

00:39:45.000 with the rest of us.

00:39:47.000 We're not a bureaucratic state.

00:39:48.000 I want to give a shout out to the Space Force because it really helps exemplify what we're up against politically.

00:39:53.000 When Space Force was announced, there was an image someone posted wearing their uniform.

00:39:58.000 And it was green.

00:40:01.000 And then all of these liberals online started making fun of the Space Force, saying, why are they wearing jungle camo if they're Space Force?

00:40:10.000 And then someone actually made a space suit that looked like outer space with stars.

00:40:15.000 And it's like a holy crap moment, because you're like, these people were legitimately serious in making fun of Trump and the Trump administration, because Space Force personnel were wearing ground-based camouflage.

00:40:29.000 And the question was, okay, first, do you think that if Space Force personnel end up fighting in outer space, they will be adrift outside of a spaceship?

00:40:40.000 So they need you to... In BDUs!

00:40:44.000 So, someone actually made a uniform that looked like Outer Space, like, second!

00:40:49.000 Okay, first, if they are in outer space, they will be in spaceships.

00:40:54.000 And in the event they're ejected from that spaceship for some reason, we want to be able to find them so they wouldn't be wearing all black. 0.59

00:41:02.000 And they legitimately were criticizing... My favorite response was, do you think space for... Do you think... Someone said, do you think space conflict will be a bunch of people floating around in space shooting at each other?

00:41:16.000 No, and they used it as a attack point because Donald Trump launched Space Force.

00:41:21.000 Not anybody else.

00:41:22.000 DJT did it.

00:41:23.000 And in his administration, the reason we did it, and the reason he did it, and I think 0.98

00:41:26.000 it's the right move today, is because space is where we are getting our asses kicked by 0.98

00:41:31.000 the Chinese and the Russians, and they are literally, if you want to attack America, 0.99

00:41:36.000 you do it through space and you do it underwater.

00:41:38.000 And the fact that we don't have enough resources focused on that threat, and that DJT made the decision to do it, was one that probably everyone wanted to do, but like everything else, since he did it, it was a bad idea, let's make fun of the uniforms.

00:41:50.000 Something ridiculous like that.

00:41:51.000 And now they're doubling down.

00:41:52.000 And Space Force is one of the only branches that actually meets its recruiting levels, right?

00:41:56.000 All the other branches are struggling.

00:41:57.000 It's basically, you know, special forces are OK.

00:41:59.000 The Marines are OK most of the time.

00:42:01.000 And then Space Force, because I think, to be fair, it is something people are really interested in.

00:42:05.000 It's a new frontier.

00:42:06.000 It has a similar aspect to when we were, you know, launching rockets back in the day.

00:42:10.000 But I agree with you.

00:42:11.000 I think that's what felt so petty about being like, Alabama has this contract.

00:42:14.000 We're going to put it here.

00:42:15.000 And the Biden administration being like, No, Colorado, because we decided it seemed like just something to spite, and because Alabama's a red state and Colorado's governed by a Democrat right now.

00:42:23.000 It's all politics.

00:42:24.000 It's not about progress, it's about a victory in our pocket.

00:42:26.000 And we reverse it.

00:42:27.000 Right.

00:42:28.000 And wasting time.

00:42:29.000 So I don't want to derail the conversation, but we've been talking about military expenditures and stuff like that.

00:42:35.000 That kind of, like, those kind of payouts, like, they really don't have a massive effect on the debt and the national debt.

00:42:43.000 And that's the greatest threat to the U.S.

00:42:44.000 right now, is the national debt, because you're going to blow up the dollar.

00:42:46.000 The economy's going to go in the toilet.

00:42:49.000 And I know Donald Trump doesn't want to talk about Social Security, but that's the biggest driver, unfunded liabilities, like the mandatory spending.

00:42:56.000 What are we going to do about that?

00:42:58.000 Because if we don't do something about, like, we're spending more on interest than we are on military spending.

00:43:04.000 You know what I mean?

00:43:05.000 Every year, every hundred days, another trillion dollars is added to the debt.

00:43:10.000 And a trillion seconds ago was 30,000 years before Christ.

00:43:14.000 Just so people get a little bit of perspective on it.

00:43:18.000 30,000 years before Christ is one trillion seconds ago.

00:43:21.000 We're adding a trillion dollars to the debt every hundred days.

00:43:24.000 And we have no plan to fix it.

00:43:26.000 And that is the most immediate existential threat to the United States.

00:43:31.000 Does he have a plan?

00:43:32.000 Trump does.

00:43:33.000 I'm not going to unveil it.

00:43:34.000 Trump for sure has a plan.

00:43:35.000 I'm also going to tell you I'm not the economist. 0.98

00:43:37.000 I'm like the only Indian that sucks at math.

00:43:40.000 So I went the other route and did national security intel stuff, but I agree with you.

00:43:46.000 It's not sexy, so people don't talk about it.

00:43:47.000 They're just like, whatever, I don't care.

00:43:49.000 And also, the answers are all ugly, to be honest with you.

00:43:52.000 And Americans are not financially literate.

00:43:54.000 No, they're not.

00:43:55.000 I mean, don't fault them for this, but they have massive credit card debt.

00:43:57.000 It's very difficult.

00:43:58.000 They're fine with the Chinese owning our debt. 1.00

00:44:00.000 Because they don't understand debt.

00:44:01.000 They don't understand how to leverage it.

00:44:02.000 They don't understand how it works.

00:44:03.000 No, you're totally right.

00:44:04.000 And you can't really blame them.

00:44:07.000 They're more immediately concerned with, how do I take care of my family right now?

00:44:12.000 Which they should be!

00:44:12.000 Which is fine, but you're right.

00:44:13.000 The president needs to come in and address that.

00:44:15.000 And I have seen President Trump's plan for it, and I think it's pretty awesome.

00:44:19.000 And the way that Trump can communicate with people is, if he has a good plan, he can Sell it.

00:44:25.000 Yeah.

00:44:26.000 But he's got to have a good plan that's actually going to fix it.

00:44:28.000 I haven't heard anybody that's made something that's really, you know, sounds reasonable.

00:44:32.000 Like it'll actually fix the problem that isn't going to be undone as soon as a Democrat.

00:44:36.000 I think you would have heard more about it.

00:44:37.000 But to Tim's point earlier, that normally it's the economy, economy, economy in election cycles.

00:44:43.000 And I disagree with him a little bit.

00:44:44.000 I think it's all border.

00:44:46.000 And then people are starting to think about the economy.

00:44:48.000 For the first time ever, people are like, I gotta think about this national security thing.

00:44:52.000 You're right, though.

00:44:53.000 To clarify, there's two metrics and there's two ways to look at it.

00:44:56.000 Gallup basically did a breakdown and they said, among all economic issues, when you ask, is the economy the issue?

00:45:03.000 It's number one.

00:45:04.000 And then for singular issues, the border is number one.

00:45:08.000 Depending on how you look at it, the economy actually means a bunch of different things.

00:45:11.000 Because Gallup actually broke it down.

00:45:13.000 We're talking about homelessness, we're talking about wages, we're talking about rent, we're talking about can I afford a home?

00:45:19.000 Those are all different things within the economy.

00:45:22.000 Immigration, I'd argue, actually is a component of the economy as well, because we're wondering about this homelessness.

00:45:28.000 If you were to remove the idea of general economy and ask someone, are you concerned about wages?

00:45:32.000 Nowhere near immigration.

00:45:33.000 Immigration is the top singular issue.

00:45:36.000 It is because it's affecting every single community in America, right?

00:45:41.000 They pulled the Band-Aid off three years ago and they said, the Biden administration said, there's no invasion, there's no national security crisis down there.

00:45:47.000 And the mainstream media lied for two years.

00:45:49.000 And now that it has literally flooded the country and Americans are unfortunately seeing its tragic impact, for instance, CCP, fentanyl killed A hundred thousand people last year.

00:45:59.000 That in and of itself is a national crisis.

00:46:01.000 The FBI director and the DHS secretary came out to Congress three months ago and said, we caught at least two dozen known foreign terrorists and we let them go and we don't know where they are today.

00:46:13.000 Which means they don't know the real number.

00:46:15.000 And we have people coming in across the border and doing, unfortunately, tragic criminality like killing Lincoln Raleigh.

00:46:21.000 And in my hometown of Vegas, two guys got murdered, you know, just literally walking down the street by an illegal alien. 0.99

00:46:26.000 Elderly women are getting raped. 0.93

00:46:28.000 This happened in West Virginia? 0.99

00:46:29.000 Yeah.

00:46:30.000 It's huge news because crime in West Virginia is slightly above half of the national average, meaning it's like 56% of the national average.

00:46:38.000 You expect to be safe.

00:46:40.000 People here are armed.

00:46:42.000 And an illegal immigrant in Charlestown What, he killed an old lady?

00:46:46.000 Is that what it was?

00:46:47.000 What was that story?

00:46:47.000 It was... she wasn't that old.

00:46:48.000 I mean, I thought she was in her 40s, but... Middle-aged woman. 0.99

00:46:50.000 Middle-aged woman.

00:46:51.000 Like, the thing is, it's also small-town vibes, right?

00:46:54.000 Like, someone who is not from here comes in, commits violence, and can just escape.

00:46:59.000 That was the problem with Lake and Riley, which is that he was known to be in the country illegally.

00:47:03.000 He had a previous criminal history in other states, and they were sort of like, we don't know what to do.

00:47:08.000 Oh, Well, because the mainstream media and the Biden administration and the Democrats for years had said, there's no criminal problem.

00:47:13.000 It's fine to be an illegal alien. 0.99

00:47:14.000 And it's part of their process to inject another rig job into an election by allowing, what is it, 10 plus million people so far, half of them are getting voter IDs, people are getting hotel rooms.

00:47:24.000 No, right.

00:47:24.000 You don't even know the number, right?

00:47:26.000 That's the sad part.

00:47:26.000 And that's what it took, though, for America and the world to pay attention to Donald Trump's effective policies on the border and to say he was right the entire time.

00:47:34.000 I'd love to ask him about the Help America Vote verification system.

00:47:37.000 You saw that story?

00:47:37.000 I think it'll be too in the weeds for him as an individual.

00:47:42.000 I'll probably try to just mention it to him, but this is probably something for someone who's working on his campaign.

00:47:46.000 This is, for those who don't know, the Social Security Administration Showing a million plus people without IDs trying to register, and we don't have a clear answer as to what this is.

00:47:58.000 It could be voter roll cleanup, fine, sure, whatever.

00:48:00.000 That would be an abuse of the system, fine, sure, whatever.

00:48:03.000 Some people are concerned it's non-citizens being given work permits, and then when they're granted tax ID numbers, TINs, or Social Security numbers for the purpose of work permits, someone, be it they themselves or NGOs or the federal government, are registering them.

00:48:18.000 We don't know.

00:48:20.000 I'm content to say it must be voter roll cleanup.

00:48:24.000 An abuse of the HAVV system as per their own rules, but maybe that's it.

00:48:27.000 Great.

00:48:28.000 We need an inquiry.

00:48:29.000 This should be looked into because in the event it's not, we need to deal with it now before November.

00:48:34.000 No, you're right.

00:48:34.000 In my home state, Nevada, it's again, it's not sexy.

00:48:36.000 It's like the dead, like people are like, oh, who wants to register voters?

00:48:39.000 Who wants to go clean the voter scrolls? 0.99

00:48:41.000 And I'm like, no, I agree with you.

00:48:42.000 So we actually filed lawsuits in Nevada last week to do just that.

00:48:45.000 And the Democrats are challenging it.

00:48:47.000 To track the HAVV? 0.70

00:48:50.000 To clean the voter rolls, as you're saying, like make sure dead people aren't on it, make sure people that are on it are of age and are legal and can vote and all that.

00:48:56.000 I agree with that for sure, but I'm very concerned about what we're seeing with the Help America Vote verification system.

00:49:01.000 Notably, February 17th of this year in Missouri, 78,421 attempted registrations for people

00:49:10.000 with no IDs, 23,000 were dead.

00:49:13.000 So 23,000 are dead, and the response was that it's voter roll cleanup.

00:49:18.000 That's fantastic.

00:49:19.000 Didn't one of the states come out and say no, that's not what we're doing?

00:49:22.000 Texas.

00:49:22.000 Yeah.

00:49:22.000 Texas said this is clearly a misunderstanding of some sort.

00:49:24.000 These numbers are wrong.

00:49:26.000 So let me jump to Texas week.

00:49:29.000 I think we can do like May 4th.

00:49:31.000 Texas reports every two weeks.

00:49:34.000 May 4th was light.

00:49:35.000 Let's see May 18th for Texas. 0.96

00:49:37.000 I think it might be light as well.

00:49:38.000 4,000.

00:49:39.000 Still decently high.

00:49:41.000 But if we go earlier in the year, April 20th, let's see where they're at with Texas.

00:49:45.000 We've got 249,770, of which 4,600 were dead.

00:49:52.000 200,000 came back as single match alive.

00:49:56.000 So, Texas said we are not doing voter roll cleanup, and these numbers are incorrect because we have not added that many people to our voter rolls.

00:50:04.000 Whatever is happening here, we need a formal inquiry, nothing crazy, just to be like, Oh yeah, here's where the numbers came from, here's why they're here, and then we know.

00:50:15.000 Because if we don't do that, you've already got people feeling like, if it's Texas, what makes sense for Texas?

00:50:23.000 They're not doing voter roll cleanup?

00:50:24.000 Then where are 1.9 million people registering coming from?

00:50:31.000 Well, I know where there's a big number over the past year that reaches around those numbers of people that may be coming here.

00:50:39.000 Many people believe it may be illegal immigrants being given work permits, and then the NGOs just submit that for our voter registration because there's a social security number attached to it.

00:50:48.000 I don't know if that's true.

00:50:50.000 All I know is this is the kind of thing that has people freaked out, especially the 30,000 dead in Missouri.

00:50:57.000 And we want to know formally and officially what it is.

00:51:00.000 Texas comes out and says, we don't know what that number is.

00:51:02.000 If Texas and Missouri, if Trump wins every swing state, And Texas and Missouri, by narrow margins flip, Trump loses.

00:51:09.000 Oh yeah, overnight.

00:51:10.000 And you know, this is the thing that I've been trying to tell people about for the last, like, I don't know, five years now.

00:51:15.000 State attorney generals and state secretaries of state control these issues.

00:51:18.000 And that is why people are like, oh, how come we didn't fix this federally?

00:51:22.000 I'm like, you can't fix it federally.

00:51:23.000 It's impossible.

00:51:24.000 You have to rely on these state AGs to bring lawsuits to clean voter rolls. 0.99

00:51:29.000 It's not cool.

00:51:30.000 It's not fun.

00:51:30.000 It's not the thing that gets headlines.

00:51:32.000 You have to do it.

00:51:33.000 That's why I was yelling at Republican state AGs to be like, why aren't you prosecuting Hunter Biden in, say, Missouri for committing crimes?

00:51:41.000 And the Democrats would do it overnight.

00:51:42.000 But it's the same thing, whether it's the voter thing or the criminality thing.

00:51:45.000 The state AGs, for the most part, have been very quiet on the Republican side.

00:51:50.000 And I literally have no idea why.

00:51:52.000 I don't know.

00:51:52.000 Do you think it's like election concerns?

00:51:54.000 Because with all of this, like, you know, it really matters who's in our voter rolls.

00:51:57.000 It matters who's in our country. 0.74

00:51:58.000 And I think there is a level of people don't want to talk about the issues that they think might risk it.

00:52:02.000 Like for me, I think we should talk about the border.

00:52:04.000 I think we should talk about the effect of illegal immigration.

00:52:06.000 But I do think we should have a conversation about reducing the pathways for legal immigration because they become abuse like chain migration.

00:52:12.000 If someone were to cross into the border illegally, you know, have a child here, I think we should end birthright citizenship. 1.00

00:52:17.000 You could then use that person to sponsor tons of people.

00:52:20.000 We should limit it maybe to an immediate family.

00:52:22.000 But when you start talking about it, it's very easy for a Republican to get labeled as like a heartless person.

00:52:27.000 You can't separate families.

00:52:28.000 You're me.

00:52:28.000 You're hurting the American dream.

00:52:30.000 It's sort of, to me, it seems like it's a question of, well, maybe I can stay in office and do better.

00:52:36.000 Like that risk assessment is coming up with stay quiet when it really should be.

00:52:40.000 encouraging them to be bold in what they're doing. And that's a example of what DC does to everything,

00:52:47.000 right? They will overcorrect and mislabel. And then when a guy like you or a guy like you or a

00:52:55.000 guy like me comes out and says, hey, yeah, we want to address immigration, you're a racist. Like, 0.97

00:52:59.000 that's the response, right? No, we're going to, we're going to stop the entire conversation,

00:53:04.000 That's what I find interesting about Donald Trump.

00:53:05.000 It really has encouraged people to talk about legal immigration, especially the border.

00:53:08.000 That's great.

00:53:09.000 That's really important.

00:53:10.000 And I think then the next step is to talk about our legal immigration system.

00:53:13.000 Are there things we can be doing to ensure that Americans are the priority for our government and we're not just looking towards outside migration to solve all our problems?

00:53:22.000 But you can't say that because you're not a Democrat.

00:53:24.000 Well, I'm too spicy, I guess.

00:53:25.000 No, I'm just saying that's what's wrong.

00:53:28.000 During the presidential debates here at the Libertarian Party Convention, they had a conversation on immigration, because the Libertarian Party is cut down the middle between open borders and closed borders factions.

00:53:38.000 Really?

00:53:38.000 I didn't know that.

00:53:39.000 Yep.

00:53:40.000 And so there's one guy who's running, and I suppose by the time this airs we'll know who the presidential pick is, but for the time being we're recording it in the morning, we don't know.

00:53:49.000 And one guy said he's for Ellis Island-style immigration.

00:53:54.000 And then someone else basically called them and said, you're basically saying open borders or not, and then it's open borders.

00:53:59.000 The Ellis Island style immigration is the soft way of saying open borders, meaning anyone can come, we stamp their form, hand it to them, say welcome to America, you are free to live and work and do as you please.

00:54:10.000 Which maybe, you know, you go back, here's the funny thing.

00:54:13.000 Half the Libertarian Party supports that?

00:54:14.000 I don't know if half.

00:54:15.000 But it's been a long-running debate.

00:54:17.000 Yes, the open borders versus closed borders factions.

00:54:20.000 Really?

00:54:20.000 I didn't know that.

00:54:21.000 But the Mises Caucus won, and I believe Mises Caucus is closed borders, right? 0.93

00:54:24.000 Yes.

00:54:25.000 So, I know a little bit about the Ellis Island system, right?

00:54:30.000 I looked it up.

00:54:32.000 It didn't work.

00:54:33.000 So, in the late 1800s, They had states handled immigration to their states, and the federal government said, it's not that much, we're not worried about it.

00:54:41.000 Once the number reached around half a million a year, they said, we need a federal way of controlling for this and tracking this more properly, so they created the Ellis Island system.

00:54:49.000 People would come on boats, they'd process and say, yeah, you're good to go.

00:54:52.000 This was about a half a million people per year for, I think, 60 years.

00:54:58.000 Or maybe less, actually.

00:55:00.000 I think it might have been way less than that, actually.

00:55:04.000 And so, after this, they said, hey, wait a minute, we're having serious problems because the number just keeps going up.

00:55:11.000 The better America does, the more people want to come here.

00:55:13.000 We can't do it this way.

00:55:15.000 We need to better control the system.

00:55:17.000 Going back in time to the way we did at Ellis Island does not account for the fact that you've got, at any given moment, 20 plus million who want to come here.

00:55:26.000 And so I was actually talking to a libertarian guy, and I was like, um... I agree with Trump.

00:55:32.000 Trump said something like, all of the immigrants of the world, all of them, they can come here.

00:55:37.000 Legally.

00:55:38.000 You gotta come here legally.

00:55:40.000 Legally means there will be a set number, it'll be restricted, there'll be assistance with integration, but there are people here at the party who think Stamp them.

00:55:47.000 Come on in.

00:55:48.000 Here's your ID.

00:55:49.000 I can't believe that.

00:55:50.000 That just blows my mind.

00:55:51.000 This is what they're doing now.

00:55:53.000 This is literally the Biden administration's plan.

00:55:55.000 It's the rubber stamp.

00:55:56.000 Welcome to America.

00:55:58.000 And you've got the black community in Chicago saying, and I quote, we are being replaced.

00:56:04.000 Kind of wild to hear that coming from Chicago.

00:56:06.000 Especially illegal immigration.

00:56:07.000 But a lot of immigration that we're encouraging right now hurts people who are in impoverished situations or in inner cities.

00:56:14.000 So it's not like the Biden administration is doing anyone they claim to be supporting any favors by encouraging a really broad open door policy.

00:56:22.000 And I think it's ultimately this weird Band-Aid solution, right?

00:56:25.000 We hear this all the time, you know, oh, well, the birth rates are low, but it's OK because we can have immigration from other places.

00:56:31.000 Not only is that bad for American culture, which I think is something like You have to live here, be a part of, actively contribute to.

00:56:36.000 But it's also saying to the American people, like, we don't actually think you're that important.

00:56:39.000 We'd actually rather replace you.

00:56:41.000 Like, what is that kind of leadership and why would you vote for that?

00:56:44.000 It's the new rig job, right?

00:56:45.000 Traditionally, for the last three decades, the Democrats have gone out and bought the minority vote.

00:56:49.000 And you're talking to a son of lawful immigrants whose family literally fled a dictatorship, moved here with nothing, and then did it the right way, and then watched their son rise up to work for Donald Trump, which is pretty cool.

00:57:02.000 But that's what the American dream should be.

00:57:04.000 That's our culture.

00:57:05.000 That's what I tell people.

00:57:07.000 People are like, oh, you're against illegal immigration.

00:57:09.000 I'm like, yeah, I am.

00:57:11.000 Because one, you don't represent me.

00:57:12.000 Two, you bought our votes when we were younger and lied about it.

00:57:15.000 And now the movement, since we've exposed that through Donald Trump, Okay, we can't buy the minorities anymore. 0.99

00:57:21.000 We're gonna buy the illegal vote.

00:57:23.000 And that's what they're doing.

00:57:24.000 This is why 25,000 people...

00:57:28.000 People showed up in Cretona Park.

00:57:31.000 It's unheard of.

00:57:32.000 It's literally 99% black and Hispanic.

00:57:36.000 They booed AOC.

00:57:37.000 And they booed AOC.

00:57:38.000 Yeah.

00:57:38.000 Because they've nailed it.

00:57:40.000 They exposed the flank that is minorities were being bought by the Democratic Party for votes.

00:57:46.000 Now they've done nothing for them.

00:57:47.000 Crime is surging.

00:57:48.000 And now the Democrats are replacing the minorities with illegals, not just in terms of jobs, but because they need votes because the minorities are now no longer voting for Democrats. 0.67

00:57:56.000 They're all voting for D.J.

00:57:57.000 They want a subservient, compliant voter class, and I think that's horrendous.

00:58:01.000 This is something that we should be opposed to and exposed for what it is, right?

00:58:05.000 Yep.

00:58:06.000 Well, they're taking away their social services as well, which has a lot of people in the black community kind of asking the question, why don't you kind of care about me?

00:58:12.000 But it seems like every four years, they're like, hey, you know, we'll pander to you here just for your vote.

00:58:17.000 And they keep giving it to them.

00:58:19.000 Here's the best part about this.

00:58:20.000 Every four years, the reparations question comes up.

00:58:23.000 The Democrats say, why are we getting reparations?

00:58:26.000 And whenever they win power, literally it goes nowhere.

00:58:28.000 It's pandering and manipulation.

00:58:30.000 But now, not only are they not promising reparations, they're going to the inverse.

00:58:37.000 And you got a viral video where a black man walks up to his community center, which is full of illegal immigrants, and he's screaming at the police, why have you taken our community center away from us? 1.00

00:58:46.000 Democrats now are basically saying, we're done pandering to you, now we're throwing it right in your face, we don't care about you anymore. 0.97

00:58:53.000 That's crazy.

00:58:55.000 You know, they say that Donald Trump is going to get, what's he polling at, 23% in the black community?

00:59:02.000 If that's true, we heard this in 2020.

00:59:04.000 Right, right, if it's true.

00:59:05.000 If it's true, the estimates are that the Democrats cannot win if their support ever drops below 80%.

00:59:12.000 If Trump really is pulling at 23, and he really does get it, it's impossible for him to lose.

00:59:18.000 I think, right, if those stats hold.

00:59:21.000 If those numbers are true.

00:59:22.000 And I would add one thing.

00:59:23.000 And they never do.

00:59:24.000 In the right states, right, in the states that vote, like California, it's irrelevant.

00:59:28.000 I'm not saying the minority vote is irrelevant.

00:59:30.000 I'm saying California is irrelevant for electoral purposes.

00:59:34.000 And I remind people, though, that the single state that had the largest number of votes for Donald J. Trump in the last election Was the state of California, and we are still never going to win California in our lifetime unless something changes.

00:59:45.000 But places like putting New York into play, and this is kind of the sheer backfiring of the Democratic mission to take out Trump via prosecution.

00:59:54.000 I don't know that he would ever have campaigned this much in New York City, but now he's in New York City.

01:00:00.000 He's on the Jersey Shore with 110,000 people.

01:00:02.000 He's in Kratona Park and he's going to keep going.

01:00:05.000 And he figured out a way to say, oh, you're going to gag me?

01:00:07.000 OK, well, I'm just going to campaign from the courtroom with my surrogates, and then I'm going to take this show on the road in New York.

01:00:12.000 It's unbelievable.

01:00:13.000 With all the media attention.

01:00:16.000 Oh, my gosh.

01:00:17.000 I got to keep my hands off the table.

01:00:19.000 The mainstream media.

01:00:20.000 Yeah, no one's going to show up.

01:00:21.000 They were like, oh, he's having this rally because he thought he'd be in court.

01:00:24.000 But now, you know, whatever.

01:00:26.000 It's like they can't acknowledge that he's doing something Democrats should have done, which is go to the Bronx, right?

01:00:31.000 Like, the Democrats take the Bronx for granted.

01:00:33.000 They think, you're going to vote for us no matter what, we don't need to be here.

01:00:36.000 I saw this tweet from him that was like, the last Republican to come here was Ronald Reagan and he won.

01:00:36.000 Wasn't it Roger Snowden?

01:00:41.000 Isn't that important?

01:00:41.000 84, yeah.

01:00:43.000 Should we acknowledge that there is diversity of thought there instead of just treating them like the Democrats do and being like, well, you're in the bag and there's nothing you can do about it?

01:00:49.000 Yeah, so to add on to your guys's point, like, if the minority and the black vote comes through for Donald Trump in places like that, like, if he takes New York, game over.

01:00:57.000 Like, New York and New Jersey, like, the electoral map just exploded against the Democrats and, you know, they can win California all day long and the rest of the swing states don't even matter because the number of electoral votes in New York.

01:01:08.000 And so I think, but you're seeing it metastasized.

01:01:11.000 The same thing's happening in Minnesota and Michigan.

01:01:13.000 And this is why Joe Biden, again, is pandering to the pro-Hamas movement overseas.

01:01:19.000 A foreign terrorist organization is being propped up by this administration to purchase votes in Arab Ridge, Michigan and Minnesota.

01:01:29.000 But you're seeing it backfire there, too.

01:01:30.000 This is why Donald Trump is going out to Michigan and Minnesota to the minority communities It's basically the Bronx over there for that specific tile of minority, and he's winning them over because he's exposing the exact same thing.

01:01:44.000 He's like, the Democrats are coming here and coming here to buy your vote.

01:01:47.000 Is your life better right now?

01:01:49.000 Are your communities safe?

01:01:50.000 How's your kids' housing and education going?

01:01:52.000 And do you feel like you can have a future in this country?

01:01:55.000 And the minorities are saying, wait a second, we were actually maybe better off where we came from.

01:01:59.000 For the first time in, like, forever.

01:02:01.000 Yeah.

01:02:01.000 It's crazy.

01:02:02.000 I think this is the big cultural shift that I think especially progressive media didn't want to ever come to, right?

01:02:09.000 They never wanted to acknowledge that they were just paying lip service to things that they said, whereas if you have a strong cultural understanding of what it means to be American, especially, you know, your parents came here a lot.

01:02:21.000 My parents are immigrants.

01:02:22.000 I know Luke can talk about this too.

01:02:24.000 When you are like, I believe in the system, I'm going to uproot my life, I'm going to leave something behind because I believe there's something better, and you work for it, it's very, very different than being told, like, don't worry, we'll just give it to you and your life will get better.

01:02:34.000 And I think that mentality is, it shows such a difference between the right and left in this country.

01:02:41.000 And I think it's ultimately obvious to everyone that one is not sustainable and it's not moving you forward.

01:02:45.000 Here's a wild thought experiment, right?

01:02:47.000 Look at all of the groups that are coalescing behind Donald Trump now because of what he's exposed to corruption.

01:02:52.000 You want people on accountability.

01:02:54.000 People want a better America.

01:02:55.000 But if Donald Trump were president right now, would all of this have ever been exposed?

01:03:00.000 Right.

01:03:00.000 Like if he went back to back terms.

01:03:02.000 Right.

01:03:03.000 I don't know.

01:03:04.000 Maybe.

01:03:04.000 Right.

01:03:05.000 But he'd be running the country.

01:03:07.000 And a lot of the people that have come out for Donald Trump would not have seen the information that has been put out there.

01:03:13.000 Now, of course, I want Donald Trump to have been president then and next time.

01:03:17.000 But it's just an interesting thought process, because I don't know that I would have been able to reach a lot of the communities I'm reaching right now if I didn't have the ammunition that the Biden administration has given us.

01:03:27.000 Do you think that there's a benefit to having this, you know, if, you know, if or when Donald Trump wins in November, he'll go in as his final term.

01:03:36.000 He had like a time off period to reflect, to see what's going on.

01:03:39.000 I've heard some people say, you know, actually it'll be like four years of lame duck syndrome.

01:03:42.000 But I wonder if it's actually sort of freeing because you're not trying to get reelected.

01:03:46.000 You can just do anything you want.

01:03:48.000 Not anything you want, but like you could have a really serious impact without having to worry about how it affects you.

01:03:52.000 Campaigns are brutal.

01:03:53.000 I mean, I'm not even the campaign guy.

01:03:54.000 Right.

01:03:55.000 Having the ability to go in there and say, I don't have to go out there and fundraise a billion, a billion.

01:03:59.000 I have to go raise a billion dollars to try to run for president of the United States and then fight the mainstream media and then go to every state and then host a rally and then do debates and all this other stuff.

01:04:08.000 You mean I can just go govern?

01:04:10.000 And I have the knowledge that I had from my first administration and the interim four years, and I could put personnel and policies in place and I can just go, you know, Donkey Kong in DC?

01:04:20.000 I think it's gonna be pretty cool.

01:04:21.000 And I think, and I hope that's what he's going to do.

01:04:23.000 Yeah, this is definitely a make-or-break moment, not just for Donald Trump, but for this country as well.

01:04:27.000 100%.

01:04:28.000 There's always these kind of two larger factions within the Trump administration in the Trump camp.

01:04:32.000 There's the kind of Marco Rubio, Nikki Haley, John Bolton, Bill Barr, Anthony Fauci, Gina Haspel.

01:04:39.000 Jared Kushner kind of neocon establishment side.

01:04:42.000 And on the other side, you have people like Roger Stone, yourself, Steve Bannon, Michael Flynn, Trump Jr., Vivek Ramaswamy that represent kind of the America first side.

01:04:51.000 Which side do you think is stronger now?

01:04:54.000 And is there anything that we could do to help spur on more of these kind of Freedom Caucus populist representatives inside of a potential Trump administration?

01:05:03.000 Is there anything we could do from the outside pushing more for these populist policies?

01:05:07.000 I think what you're seeing is people in these other groups paying attention more than they ever have, you know, to non-mainstream media outlets.

01:05:16.000 And for me, that's the most important.

01:05:17.000 Your show here is like one of the most powerful shows that has impacted communities with actual truth.

01:05:24.000 And that's why I'm able to go out there and say, oh, you stop watching the mainstream nonsense.

01:05:28.000 And we can talk about a two tier system of justice.

01:05:30.000 We can talk about defense budgeting.

01:05:31.000 We could talk about who and when and why the Washington, D.C.

01:05:35.000 establishment is so corrupt.

01:05:36.000 And that message alone has empowered DJT, I think, to, one, make the decision to come on your show.

01:05:42.000 Which I thought was brilliant.

01:05:43.000 And to speak to an audience base that has never been spoken to before and pull them in and say, what are some of your values?

01:05:50.000 We're not going to be able to get you a hundred percent, but maybe we pick up on a couple of things you guys care about along the way.

01:05:56.000 And that's what's bringing it together.

01:05:57.000 Two big things for this show.

01:05:59.000 First time we had Marjorie Taylor Greene on, we were inundated with comments and emails from people saying, I had never heard Marjorie Taylor Greene speak before.

01:06:07.000 I thought she was crazy.

01:06:08.000 And Marjorie came on and talked about how Congress is corrupt and broken and things she's trying to do. 0.99

01:06:12.000 Bannon, same exact thing.

01:06:14.000 First time Bannon came on, wave of comments from people being like, I've never heard this guy talk before and I thought he was crazy.

01:06:19.000 And they were like, he kind of sounds like an Occupy Wall Street guy.

01:06:22.000 And I'm like, he does!

01:06:24.000 It's remarkable that Bannon can go in front of a bunch of MAGA Trump supporters and say, tax the rich.

01:06:28.000 It's unbelievable!

01:06:29.000 I know!

01:06:30.000 It's populist.

01:06:31.000 And I think, you know, I don't, I believe that most people who are watching this are Regular people who got pulled into politics because the Democratic Party went nuts.

01:06:43.000 And these are people who probably went to the... Not everybody, I know there's a lot of Libertarians who watch, a lot of Trump supporters who have been conservative for a long time.

01:06:49.000 But I do know there's a lot of people that are... It's really simple.

01:06:54.000 We found that our biggest audience is Chicago.

01:06:56.000 Is it really?

01:06:57.000 Yeah, I mean, it's... Hometown advantage over there.

01:06:59.000 Well, yeah, it is.

01:07:00.000 It's spread out.

01:07:01.000 Oh, right, right.

01:07:02.000 It's spread across the country.

01:07:04.000 And so it's fairly even, but there's a slightly higher percentage coming from Chicago than anywhere else.

01:07:11.000 So the plurality, despite the fact that it's fairly even, is Chicago.

01:07:14.000 And I thought, you know, that really makes sense.

01:07:16.000 I'm from Chicago.

01:07:17.000 I have moderate Chicago sensibilities.

01:07:20.000 Chicago doesn't have a Republican Party.

01:07:22.000 Okay, it does.

01:07:23.000 So, if you are...

01:07:26.000 If you're in Chicago, there's only Democrats to vote for, or unaffiliated, which is just Democrat, and if you are someone who's critical of their failed policy over the past hundred years, you're still a relatively liberal guy, but you are sick of the corruption you see coming from the Democratic Party with this uniparty rule in this one place. 0.96

01:07:43.000 I think a lot of people watching this show probably feel similarly to, I'm not a Republican, I didn't grow up conservative, the Democrats have gone insane, the Republican Party sucks, Trump represents something different.

01:07:55.000 And that lane has never been built before, in my opinion, and it's never had a leader like DJT in that little lane.

01:08:03.000 And what the Democrats and mainstream media are coming in and doing now, in my opinion, is trying to blockade that lane and label it and say, if you're in this lane, And you've never been a Republican or a Democrat before, and you support Trump? 0.88

01:08:15.000 You're a domestic terrorist. 1.00

01:08:16.000 You're a terrible person. 1.00

01:08:17.000 No, literally. 1.00

01:08:17.000 No, no, no. 1.00

01:08:18.000 That's what they're saying. 0.80

01:08:19.000 They've literally said those MAGA supporters are domestic terrorists.

01:08:22.000 Like, people are like, Kasper, there's a hit piece on me every week in whatever publication you want.

01:08:27.000 And it's like, Kasper tells a MAGA extremist.

01:08:28.000 I'm like, what does that mean?

01:08:30.000 Like, I want a closed border.

01:08:31.000 I don't want drugs in the community.

01:08:33.000 I want law enforcement to do well and I want America to be prosperous.

01:08:35.000 It means you're a bad person and no one should listen to you.

01:08:37.000 But the point, yeah, exactly.

01:08:39.000 But they're labeling people.

01:08:41.000 And the fact that they're labeling these new people that are coming into politics who have never been there, that literally, like, I had a guy come in for pest control last week and he goes, dude, I have never even voted in my life ever before.

01:08:53.000 I'm going DJT all the way.

01:08:54.000 We didn't even talk politics.

01:08:56.000 He just said this out of nowhere.

01:08:57.000 He doesn't know anything about you and he's like, I just gotta open the floor with this.

01:09:00.000 Then he googled it, had my name, he's like, oh crap, that's hilarious.

01:09:04.000 I'm in a shuttle bus in Chicago, going to the airport.

01:09:07.000 Going from the airport to the car rental.

01:09:08.000 Tim Pool doesn't take shuttle buses, come on now.

01:09:12.000 From the car rental place to the airport, it's a shuttle bus, and it's just me and my girlfriend and the bus driver, and he's like a young black guy, and he just goes, who y'all voting for?

01:09:21.000 And I was like... Best polling you can get.

01:09:23.000 And I was like... Literally.

01:09:24.000 Before I could say anything, I was like, well, I think, and he goes, just say it.

01:09:28.000 Donald Trump!

01:09:29.000 And I started laughing.

01:09:30.000 I was like, are you for real, dude?

01:09:31.000 I was like, yeah, I was going to say Donald Trump.

01:09:33.000 I wasn't going to just scream Donald Trump like you did.

01:09:36.000 I was going to say something more like, you know, I'm probably going to vote for Donald Trump.

01:09:40.000 Actually, I'm voting for Donald Trump, and it's because of, you know, I was going to give him a long answer.

01:09:43.000 He just said, just say it.

01:09:44.000 Just say it.

01:09:45.000 But you made a very good point, Cash, because all the power we gave to the government to stop terrorists is essentially being used to terrorize us.

01:09:53.000 And they did it under the Bush neoconservative kind of regime that kind of set up this national security state that we're fighting up against.

01:10:01.000 I want to ask you this question because I think it's an important one, especially when it comes to picking the next vice president of the United States.

01:10:08.000 There's been a lot of conversations, you know, silly conversations about Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones, but Outside of that, there is some serious consideration with Marco Rubio.

01:10:17.000 He does represent that kind of Bush-Neocon faction.

01:10:21.000 Is there anyone that you particularly are vying for to be the next VP yourself?

01:10:26.000 Those exact conversations I'll keep between me and the boss, but I will publicize the following.

01:10:31.000 What I told him was, honestly, sir, I almost don't care who you pick as long as you don't pick the following.

01:10:40.000 Okay.

01:10:40.000 And what I don't want is a repeat Mike Pence.

01:10:43.000 What I don't want is someone who is running your administration for Intel and DoD and counterterrorism and all this stuff to get an order from you to go back into your White House to fight 7,000 people and slow down your order.

01:10:55.000 Don't pick someone who's going to be auditioning to be POTUS in four years.

01:10:58.000 And there are folks like that out there.

01:11:01.000 There are the Ben Carson types out there that I think you can go to that are maybe a little quieter and not as sexy of a pick.

01:11:08.000 And so to me, what I told the boss was, I'm sure everyone's going to be yelling at him for the next two months while he decides.

01:11:14.000 I think he's already picked who he's going to pick.

01:11:16.000 That's just my opinion.

01:11:18.000 I've heard rumors.

01:11:19.000 But to me, it's more important that he doesn't pick someone who's going to, like, people like before Nikki Haley, you know, was going sideways.

01:11:27.000 They were like, oh, you got to pick her as VP. 0.60

01:11:29.000 And I was like, no, don't pick her.

01:11:32.000 And you can't.

01:11:33.000 And there's also the issue with Marco.

01:11:34.000 It's nothing personal against Marco, but the 15th Amendment issue is real with Marco Rubio, which most people don't even know about.

01:11:40.000 You can't have a VP and president from the same state.

01:11:43.000 Like, it's a legitimate constitutional thing.

01:11:46.000 So.

01:11:47.000 He'd have to do a whole host of things and move and stuff like that for that to be a real consideration.

01:11:54.000 He's also the intel kind of deep state guy.

01:11:56.000 And I think it's very important for Donald Trump to understand that if he puts another kind of establishment rhino as his VP, that the system is going to be more incentivized than ever and probably carry out procedures to try to take him out immediately as soon as he takes office. 0.51

01:12:11.000 It would be advantageous for him, from my political understanding, to get someone who's an outsider, to get someone who's anti-establishment, who scares the establishment more than Donald Trump, to safeguard his position in power.

01:12:24.000 Is it the 15th?

01:12:25.000 I might be wrong on the number, but there's an amendment that specifically states your vice president and president cannot be from the same state.

01:12:31.000 Maybe it's like 17 or whatever.

01:12:32.000 I'm not the constitutional genius.

01:12:34.000 So no math, no constitution.

01:12:36.000 Yeah.

01:12:36.000 Well, you know, you know, since going back to my public defender prosecutor days, some constitution, some actually that's been like my driving force.

01:12:43.000 I think that's what 12, 12.

01:12:44.000 There you go.

01:12:45.000 What's caused so much of this popularity in a lot of these other sectors that we've been talking about in communities is no one has paid attention to constitutional due process before.

01:12:52.000 They're like, whatever, I don't care.

01:12:53.000 And the people that have been destroyed.

01:12:55.000 By the constitutional unconstitutional due process have been minorities. 1.00

01:12:59.000 And Donald Trump's coming in and exposing and saying, I'm going to help you.

01:13:01.000 And I did help you with this Crime Restoration Act and helping minorities in the past administration.

01:13:06.000 I think it's it's just a huge confluence of events.

01:13:08.000 But that's why they have to label him like this extremist who hates everybody and it's foreign or whatever it is, because like.

01:13:13.000 If if the Democratic Party, which has marked itself as like we're the party of minority voters, reveals that they have not actually done them any favors, that they are really threatening their reputation going forward.

01:13:23.000 And they already seem to be fairly dysfunctional.

01:13:25.000 I mean, the idea that like Donald Trump actually has inroads is something they can't face because it's something they pretended they were, you know, the champions for so long.

01:13:33.000 Yeah, they owned him.

01:13:34.000 And it's just like Donald Trump's presidency.

01:13:36.000 Donald Trump came in not as this neocon conservative.

01:13:40.000 He came in as a guy who was like, I'm going to end the forever wars.

01:13:42.000 And the Democrats like, no, that's our that's our deal.

01:13:44.000 He was pointing the finger at Bush and Saudi Arabia for their involvement in 9-11, which was huge. 0.81

01:13:48.000 And I was like, holy cow, I can't believe Donald Trump is actually talking about this on the national stage, breaking the orthodoxy, talking about these larger truths that got everyone so energized about him.

01:13:58.000 And, you know, we need that talk more than ever now.

01:14:01.000 When he said to Jeb Bush, your brother lied?

01:14:03.000 Yes, about 9-11.

01:14:04.000 Not only that, he made other kind of statements about this.

01:14:06.000 He talked about investigating 9-11.

01:14:08.000 He talked about auditing the Federal Reserve.

01:14:10.000 Those are the populist kind of sentiments that resonated with so many Americans.

01:14:14.000 Well, the Federal Reserve is a whole other deal.

01:14:17.000 Anyway, the other thing that I put in the book that I recommended the boss to do hits on this.

01:14:22.000 We need a 24-7 declassification office.

01:14:26.000 Yes.

01:14:26.000 Rolling papers out 24-7.

01:14:28.000 And not just like JFK, and not just 9-11, you're talking the guy that's read the whole 9-11 report, and those seven pages that people talk about.

01:14:37.000 But I believe, as like the guy who is an Intel guy who believes wholeheartedly in the classified system of information, I believe that it has been over abused by these corrupt officials in government to hide the truth and enact more corrupt activity.

01:14:51.000 So what I told the boss is like, I don't care what you call it, truth and reconciliation, whatever, come up with a better name.

01:14:57.000 But every agency and department literally submits all of their documentation and I believe you could get half out, half.

01:15:04.000 I still think the other half needs to remain classified.

01:15:07.000 I'll always argue that it does serve a purpose.

01:15:10.000 But like you're seeing in these documents in the Jack Smith case, they're just redacting stuff that they lied about, that they broke the law.

01:15:17.000 It's used to protect themselves.

01:15:18.000 And it's a public document in federal court, which is a document for the people of the United States.

01:15:23.000 And we can have you run that office.

01:15:25.000 You can come in and just be like, hey, I want all the Saudi documents.

01:15:27.000 I'll gladly do that.

01:15:28.000 I'd be so happy.

01:15:29.000 So Luke will be the press secretary for the Libertarian Party.

01:15:32.000 The declassifying documenter.

01:15:33.000 The Viceroy of Declassification.

01:15:34.000 Absolutely.

01:15:35.000 I like that.

01:15:36.000 I'm in.

01:15:36.000 Where do I sign up?

01:15:38.000 But I think that's that's how you earn the respect.

01:15:41.000 Like you said, Donald Trump started talking about these things.

01:15:43.000 Then we started putting these documents out there.

01:15:45.000 And remember when I ran Russiagate, right, they came out, they came after me and said, if you put out the Nunes memo and you put this out that you wrote, our enemies and our allies are going to get murdered.

01:15:54.000 No one died.

01:15:55.000 Do you think, we had Don Jr.

01:15:58.000 on, one of our callers said, pardon Assange, Ulbricht, and Snowden, and Don Jr.

01:16:08.000 said, 100%, we're well past the point where there's a conversation, I don't want to speak for him too much because I can't remember the exact quote, but he said basically, yes, at this point, do you think Well, do you think Julian Assange should be pardoned?

01:16:21.000 And do you think Trump would be willing to pardon him?

01:16:25.000 I don't know what the boss wants to do.

01:16:29.000 We haven't had that specific conversation.

01:16:32.000 Me personally, and I'm probably going to piss off a lot of people.

01:16:35.000 I don't think what Assange did was pardonable.

01:16:40.000 Like, I think it was such an egregious act that screwed me in the field as an operative.

01:16:45.000 What did he do?

01:16:47.000 By disclosing some pieces of information that we used operationally.

01:16:51.000 Like, we had to pull a shit ton of stuff down.

01:16:53.000 But he's not charged for that.

01:16:54.000 No, no, right.

01:16:55.000 He's not charged for that, but he's charged for... Espionage.

01:16:57.000 Espionage.

01:16:58.000 Yeah, so I think facilitating access or something.

01:17:00.000 It's basically the charge that says, you let this information out.

01:17:03.000 So like, there's a difficult give and take for me there, because same thing with Snowden, right?

01:17:09.000 Just to clarify real quick, I think, I could be wrong, they say that Julian Assange assisted Bradley Manning, and that makes it not journalism.

01:17:16.000 Would it have been that Assange just published information?

01:17:19.000 There's nothing, but their argument is that Assange assisted the facilitation of the exportation of the information.

01:17:26.000 Yeah, I think I don't know if there's a difference because it's just getting the information out.

01:17:29.000 Well, journalists are allowed to get information out, even if it pisses off the government.

01:17:33.000 But the argument is when you actually go into government and facilitate the exfiltration.

01:17:37.000 Right, when you go in and pull it out.

01:17:39.000 It's the same type of crime.

01:17:42.000 Like Donald Trump is charged with illegally possessing classified documents.

01:17:46.000 Right.

01:17:46.000 That's what they're saying, the journalists.

01:17:48.000 In my opinion, journalists shouldn't have those classified documents.

01:17:52.000 What they should have is the documentation from the government that they've been withheld that exposes the information.

01:17:57.000 Correction. 0.99

01:17:57.000 I mean, assuming this stupid AI is right, it's actually both. 0.99

01:18:01.000 It's not just the conspiracy to commit intrusion, but also the intrusion. 1.00

01:18:05.000 The publication of.

01:18:05.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:18:06.000 So you were correct.

01:18:08.000 I think the first one, publishing stuff, Pardon, you can't do that.

01:18:14.000 I don't, whether or not he actually conspired with any, I don't know that I believe that, but yeah.

01:18:20.000 Yeah, I mean the videos, the documents that he released were for the public good, for the public interest, and they revealed a lot of the things that the U.S.

01:18:26.000 government was lying to us about, and I think this is why it was considered an act of journalism rather than kind of an act of sabotage.

01:18:32.000 And I think there's a way to lawfully do that.

01:18:34.000 Like, I think there's a way for, like, to, the point is people now know that A lot of times the U.S.

01:18:39.000 government has lied to them and has done stuff for their self-interest over the American citizens.

01:18:45.000 And my point to the president was when I was like, dude, I'm the Russiagate guy.

01:18:50.000 I figured out the FBI lied to the world.

01:18:52.000 Hillary paid for it. 0.99

01:18:54.000 Just give me like 27 seconds.

01:18:55.000 Let's put this stuff out.

01:18:56.000 And it was a monster fight to get the Nunes memo out, to get all those documents out.

01:19:00.000 But there's a way to do it.

01:19:01.000 Now that Americans know that that other stuff exists, I think President Trump's strongest point, and I think he said this publicly, is like, he's going to have one of these offices or commissions that puts this stuff out.

01:19:11.000 And everyone can request information, be like, hey, I want the Bay of Pigs information out.

01:19:15.000 I want the whatever documents out.

01:19:16.000 And I think that's the way to do it.

01:19:18.000 The Epstein documents.

01:19:19.000 Right.

01:19:19.000 Well, the Epstein Black Book, like on day one.

01:19:21.000 The Iran-Contra documents.

01:19:22.000 The MKUltra documents.

01:19:23.000 That's why you're going to be the viceroy of the Declassification Office.

01:19:27.000 There's a challenge with the Assange stuff.

01:19:30.000 I can't see what evidence they have in terms of computer intrusion.

01:19:34.000 I don't think you can criminally charge someone for publishing information.

01:19:37.000 Newspapers all did that.

01:19:38.000 I also kind of feel like it's been 12 or 13 years that the dude's been effectively in solitary.

01:19:44.000 Where is he now?

01:19:46.000 Highmarsh Prisons or something?

01:19:47.000 Is that where it is?

01:19:48.000 Belmarsh? 0.63

01:19:49.000 Belmarsh.

01:19:49.000 Is it Belmarsh?

01:19:50.000 I believe so, yep. 0.99

01:19:51.000 Uh, I'm kind of at the point where it's like, damn. 0.98

01:19:54.000 Like, it's been a minute. 0.95

01:19:55.000 Yeah, so even if there's an argument to these things...

01:19:59.000 I feel like there's a lot of goodwill in just being like, we're going to drop this one.

01:20:02.000 It was mishandled.

01:20:04.000 It's poorly done.

01:20:05.000 He already paid his price.

01:20:06.000 He already was tortured in solitary confinement.

01:20:08.000 He already was serving a huge jail sentence for not being found guilty.

01:20:12.000 There's a lot of merit to that, right?

01:20:13.000 It didn't happen yesterday.

01:20:14.000 It happened a dozen years ago.

01:20:16.000 But the issue being that they first falsely held him on this ridiculous molestation charge, which took him how many years to clear, right?

01:20:23.000 And they dropped it and it was BS the whole time, and then as soon as that happens, he gets raided.

01:20:29.000 My understanding, I could be wrong, is that Trump himself ordered Assange to be arrested from the Ecuadorian embassy.

01:20:36.000 I have not heard that.

01:20:37.000 Well, it did happen under his administration, and according to some sources that I've talked to, there was some kind of backroom dealings and conversations specifically about revealing sources, which Assange refused to do so, and therefore was automatically kind of dragged out.

01:20:51.000 Where the head of the CIA, you know, there was Barr literally talking about assassinating and taking out, you know, Julian Assange.

01:20:58.000 I'll tell you the theory and rumor that circulates behind the scenes is that With the Wikileaks email, the DCCC emails, I believe it was.

01:21:09.000 Yeah.

01:21:10.000 And the DNC stuff.

01:21:11.000 There is a question as to where Julian Assange got it from.

01:21:16.000 Of course the Seth Rich theory flies around and Julian Assange made several statements about Seth Rich as if to imply, without directly saying, Seth Rich may have been the source.

01:21:26.000 Now the corporate press of course says this is ridiculous, it's not true, he was just a victim of a robbery.

01:21:30.000 The conspiracy theory behind the scenes And I don't even, I don't like saying conspiracy theory because this is actually people in DC and in the Beltway have spread this rumor.

01:21:38.000 And it's a rumor that Trump wanted the information from Assange as to his source of these emails because 1. national security interests and 2. it could actually prove a criminal conspiracy behind the scenes targeting him specifically or his administration or any of his priorities and the idea was go to Assange and say Give us the proof who this was, Seth Rich or otherwise, and you're a free man.

01:22:06.000 And Assange said, never, won't do it.

01:22:08.000 So then Trump said, if you don't, we're going to arrest you and bring you to the U.S.

01:22:12.000 and have you testify.

01:22:14.000 And so the theory goes that Assange said, I will never reveal my sources under any circumstances.

01:22:18.000 And they said, then we're going to bring you here and make you talk.

01:22:20.000 So I can't speak directly to that.

01:22:22.000 I wasn't involved in that.

01:22:23.000 But the DNC server intrusion is probably the greatest single subject to talk about right now for all of this, because the left wing media put the hack on Russia so they could tie Donald Trump to Russia.

01:22:38.000 Exactly right.

01:22:38.000 And if Trump could prove that it was not true, then he gets exonerated.

01:22:43.000 But here's how deep it gets, right?

01:22:45.000 For the first time that I'd ever heard in FBI history, They allowed a private entity, CrowdStrike, to go in and exploit the DNC servers, but only whatever CrowdStrike wanted to exploit.

01:22:57.000 And they never handed those servers over to the FBI, so the FBI could have exploited them and we could have had the answers.

01:23:03.000 But I think it's because they knew it was not a Russian hack.

01:23:06.000 And I do believe Julian Assange probably knows who did it, right?

01:23:09.000 And it would have exonerated Donald Trump and the entire Russia collusion narrative.

01:23:14.000 But this goes to the bigger problem in D.C.

01:23:16.000 about why did James Comey allow some random software tech firm to go in there and exploit the data off the DNC firm?

01:23:23.000 Do you know who the owner and CEO of CrowdStrike is?

01:23:26.000 Sean Henry.

01:23:26.000 Do you know what he used to be?

01:23:27.000 James Comey's assistant at the FBI.

01:23:30.000 So, like, the whole narrative could have been destroyed.

01:23:33.000 So this is what makes the whole story kind of plausible.

01:23:37.000 Donald Trump thinking about, one, his personal interests, but also national security interests.

01:23:42.000 If there really is a criminal conspiracy to frame him as a Russian agent and Hillary Clinton... Someone should be prosecuted for it!

01:23:48.000 And all he needed was for Julian Assange to say, my source was this.

01:23:54.000 And Julian Assange would not do it because Julian Assange In for WikiLeaks, the moment he ever gives up a single source, WikiLeaks ceases to exist.

01:24:03.000 Right.

01:24:04.000 So then this is where this rumor comes from.

01:24:07.000 There are people who claim that they were involved in conversations related to this.

01:24:10.000 And I wasn't.

01:24:11.000 I don't know.

01:24:12.000 Yeah.

01:24:12.000 Not saying you were.

01:24:13.000 But that Trump basically was like, this is a guy who is wanted.

01:24:18.000 By the United States as it is, though there was a grand jury at the time, he was still yet unindicted, and the rumor goes that Trump said, if he comes here and testifies and gives us a statement, we blow the lid off of the Russiagate hoax and the people involved.

01:24:32.000 You know, it's a challenge for me, because I'm like, for the sake of this country, we need that information.

01:24:37.000 And I'm just spiff-balling here, so this is coming off the top of my head.

01:24:40.000 Because you gotta remember who ran the FBI and DOJ, even though it was during a Trump administration, they hated Trump, right?

01:24:46.000 Why didn't he fire him?

01:24:47.000 I don't know.

01:24:49.000 He hired a lot of them, and we hope he doesn't hire them again.

01:24:52.000 No, personnel's a big thing.

01:24:52.000 Yeah.

01:24:54.000 The other way to look at it is those institutionalists, Bill Barr, Chris Wray and all those people in between.

01:25:00.000 Right.

01:25:00.000 They prosecuted Julian Assange to shut him up.

01:25:04.000 Right.

01:25:04.000 Yeah.

01:25:04.000 Donald Trump had nothing to do with it.

01:25:05.000 Right.

01:25:06.000 They, the FBI and DOJ who created Russiagate.

01:25:10.000 And we're in on the scam.

01:25:12.000 They know who hacked the Russia, excuse me, the DNC servers.

01:25:15.000 The guys and gals that have been working on that case for like six years, they have the answer.

01:25:20.000 And the only way to keep it closed loop is by going out and prosecuting Julian Assange by weaponizing the system of government against your political opponents and burying that information.

01:25:29.000 Trump should pardon him and get him out of jail.

01:25:31.000 I think that's more plausible.

01:25:32.000 I think that information should be put out for the American public to see.

01:25:35.000 Wait a second.

01:25:36.000 Why don't we know who hacked the... I think the FBI knows.

01:25:39.000 We just haven't been told.

01:25:42.000 But if Trump pardons Assange, right, there could be secret meetings, grand jury hearings, where he could kind of testify, it wouldn't go public, where he could say, these are my sources, this is the case.

01:25:54.000 I mean, there's a whole host of ways to do that.

01:25:56.000 The argument is that Assange said never under any circumstances.

01:25:59.000 And I'm saying he doesn't even have to.

01:26:00.000 I'm saying the corrupt government gangsters that rigged I just need to issue a correction.

01:26:06.000 I made a mistake.

01:26:07.000 It's not Bill Barr that was talking about assassinating Assange.

01:26:11.000 It was Trump's Secretary of State Mike Pompeo that plotted to assassinate Assange.

01:26:14.000 You just gotta go get it.

01:26:15.000 I know where to get it.

01:26:16.000 I just need to issue a correction.

01:26:17.000 I made a mistake.

01:26:18.000 It's not Bill Barr that was talking about assassinating Assange.

01:26:21.000 It was Trump's Secretary of State Mike Pompeo that plotted to assassinate Assange.

01:26:26.000 So I apologize for my mistake earlier.

01:26:27.000 Yeah, you're gonna get sued.

01:26:30.000 I made a correction.

01:26:31.000 The biggest questions I have for the president is his personnel choices, firing, and then criminal prosecutions.

01:26:37.000 Because, you know, here at the Libertarian Party Convention, there's two big things.

01:26:43.000 I hear it's Trump hired bad people.

01:26:46.000 I don't trust him and Trump let like the so it's it's hiring bad people and giving them control like Fauci is included in this.

01:26:52.000 Oh, yeah, everything found involved with lying and then the criminal prosecutions of said abject corruption.

01:26:59.000 So, for me, I agree.

01:27:01.000 I mean, I look at economic policy, and I get it, the deficit stuff is bad, but economically this country was a churning, and so you can't compare that to today.

01:27:10.000 Trump made mistakes.

01:27:11.000 I'm fine.

01:27:12.000 I think overall it was a net positive.

01:27:13.000 Foreign policy, I think, was tremendous.

01:27:15.000 I think his foreign policy was the best I've seen in my life.

01:27:18.000 I'm 38.

01:27:19.000 Maybe there's people who are older than me who saw it better.

01:27:20.000 That's fine.

01:27:21.000 Crossing the DMZ into North Korea, into enemy territory, I nearly cried to see him make that move.

01:27:28.000 No security detail.

01:27:30.000 Crossing right into enemy country.

01:27:32.000 That's bravery.

01:27:33.000 I respect it.

01:27:34.000 The Abraham Accords, I think they're fantastic. 0.83

01:27:36.000 Ending the wars.

01:27:37.000 Ending the wars.

01:27:38.000 Setting a timeline for withdrawal.

01:27:39.000 Trying to get us out of Syria. 1.00

01:27:40.000 All of these things are massive net positives.

01:27:42.000 And I look at all of that.

01:27:44.000 But when I talk to libertarians, they say, he's hiring bad people who stabbed him in the back.

01:27:49.000 He doesn't know how to handle this.

01:27:51.000 Bolton stabbed him in the back.

01:27:53.000 My hope is that he's learned from that and that his revenge and our retribution will come with proper personnel.

01:28:00.000 Because now he needs that good, like you said with Pence, he needs a better right-hand man.

01:28:05.000 He needs a real right-hand man and good lieutenants who are going to make sure the job gets done.

01:28:09.000 So two things.

01:28:10.000 So, selfish plug, in the back of this book there's literally a glossary of government gangsters.

01:28:14.000 In alphabetical order.

01:28:15.000 The Biden administration spent 10 months blocking the release of this book.

01:28:19.000 I had to sue them in federal court to get it.

01:28:21.000 So I name everybody, Democrat and Republican, and how they screwed us in the Trump administration and before that.

01:28:27.000 So identifying them is step one.

01:28:29.000 And then people always ask, OK, do we have the bench to come in with the president?

01:28:34.000 Should he win next time around?

01:28:35.000 My answer is 100 percent yes.

01:28:36.000 We figured it out from the last time who not to trust and who to trust.

01:28:39.000 And most importantly, that you don't need the volume of people in there that the government says you need to run the government.

01:28:44.000 Do you have a website for the book or anything like that?

01:28:46.000 Yeah, governmentgangsters.com or you can get it on Amazon and all that other stuff too.

01:28:50.000 All right, we are going to now shift over to our conversation with the man himself, President Donald Trump, to ask him some of these questions personally.

01:30:24.000 I'm a writer for scnr.com.

01:30:25.000 That's Scanner News.

01:30:26.000 I'm really grateful to be a part of that team.

01:30:27.000 They're at TimCastNews on Twitter and Instagram.

01:30:30.000 I'm hannahclare.b on Instagram.

01:30:32.000 I'm hannahclareb on Twitter.

01:30:34.000 Thanks so much for this conversation.

01:30:35.000 Hi, President Trump!

01:30:37.000 Ladies and gentlemen, President Donald J. Trump.

01:30:39.000 How are you?

01:30:46.000 Good, Mr. President.

01:30:47.000 This is your seat we have here right here.

01:30:49.000 Okay.

01:30:51.000 How are you?

01:30:51.000 Nice to see you.

01:30:52.000 Nice to see you.

01:30:53.000 We met at Mar-a-Lago a couple weeks ago.

01:30:54.000 I remember.

01:30:55.000 Yeah, you complimented my face.

01:30:57.000 I really do appreciate it.

01:30:57.000 Your beauty.

01:31:00.000 Thanks for sitting down.

01:31:01.000 I really do appreciate it.

01:31:02.000 Okay.

01:31:03.000 So I know you don't have a lot of time, so I'll just, we'll jump right in.

01:31:05.000 Okay, good.

01:31:07.000 We had a couple polls we went over on the show, on our show IRL.

01:31:09.000 Young people, surprisingly, immigration is a top issue for them now.

01:31:13.000 I was talking to a young guy, he's 26.

01:31:15.000 He says he's watching what's going on in New York.

01:31:19.000 He owns a business.

01:31:19.000 He can't afford to buy his own house.

01:31:21.000 He struggles to be able to support a family.

01:31:24.000 And I know that you've said that there's going to be the largest deportation effort in your next term.

01:31:30.000 How do we do it?

01:31:31.000 So millions and millions of people are coming into our country.

01:31:35.000 And it's not necessarily exactly what we want or had in mind.

01:31:40.000 They have open borders where people just flow in.

01:31:43.000 And many of those people are coming from prisons.

01:31:45.000 Many of those people, frankly, are murderers, and they're drug dealers, and they're coming from mental institutions.

01:31:52.000 And they're coming from places that are not going to work very well.

01:31:55.000 It's not going to be very good for our country.

01:31:57.000 So we're going to start with that and we have to get them out.

01:32:00.000 No country can sustain what we're going through.

01:32:02.000 I believe the number is 15, 16 million, could even be 17 million people right now.

01:32:08.000 That's more than almost, that's bigger than almost all of our states.

01:32:11.000 I think it's freaking out young people.

01:32:13.000 How do we do it though?

01:32:15.000 Is it going to be new personnel?

01:32:17.000 It will really be done with local police.

01:32:19.000 You know, the respect has been taken away, the honor has been taken away from our police forces.

01:32:25.000 They're not allowed to do anything.

01:32:27.000 And whether it's libertarian or not libertarian, people have to have, you have to have law and order.

01:32:31.000 You can't have 500 people walking into a department store and just walking out with everything they have.

01:32:38.000 And we have to give honor and respect back, and I believe immunity, because you know, so often when a police person does their job, they end up with They end up with no pension.

01:32:50.000 They end up with no house.

01:32:51.000 They end up with no family.

01:32:52.000 Everything's taken away from them.

01:32:54.000 They have to get their own lawyer.

01:32:57.000 So we're gonna give them back their dignity and their strength.

01:33:00.000 The local police know the criminals that we're talking about.

01:33:04.000 They know their first name.

01:33:05.000 Their middle name and their last name.

01:33:07.000 They know everything about them.

01:33:08.000 And we're going to have to let them do that, and they will bring them in.

01:33:13.000 We have no choice.

01:33:14.000 And these are, in many cases, and this is from all over the world, not just South America, which is big enough, but they're coming in from the Congo, they're coming in from all parts of Africa, they're coming in from all parts of Asia, and they're, it's an invasion into our country, and no country can handle this. 0.95

01:33:29.000 So we're going to have them taken out.

01:33:31.000 Local police, we're going to work very closely with the local police, and it's been done before.

01:33:35.000 We had Dwight Eisenhower, believe it or not, did the biggest deportation.

01:33:39.000 He pretty much stopped it.

01:33:41.000 Strange that we mention Eisenhower, because you don't think of him that way, but he did a massive deportation where people were pouring in.

01:33:47.000 The next big question that we get a lot is, there's two components to this.

01:33:52.000 The first is, Me, many Libertarians here, we want to see firings.

01:33:57.000 We want to see, in the bureaucracy, corrupt individuals the bloat.

01:34:02.000 On top of that, without getting into the specifics for obvious reasons, the things that they're doing to you with the court system is not just to you, it is to me, it is to everyone who voted for you in 2020.

01:34:14.000 It's true.

01:34:17.000 Are we going to get some good personnel in as Attorney General, Deputy Attorney General, and in the CIA and see some prosecutions?

01:34:26.000 So we had some great people because our trade numbers were fantastic, the jobs we did on trade, the jobs we did frankly in the military underneath the Terrible television generals who were absolutely terrible, but we have incredible people.

01:34:38.000 You know, we defeated ISIS.

01:34:40.000 And we had no new wars because they were concerned with us.

01:34:43.000 I had no wars at all.

01:34:45.000 I finished off a war that we were in for 20 years, but we had no wars.

01:34:51.000 And we have to get the right people.

01:34:54.000 It's all about the people.

01:34:55.000 So when I first came here, I was only in Washington 17 times in my life.

01:34:58.000 All of a sudden, I'm president.

01:35:00.000 And I really knew nobody.

01:35:01.000 I relied on people.

01:35:02.000 Some were good.

01:35:03.000 Some were rhinos.

01:35:04.000 Some gave us some bad advice.

01:35:05.000 And generally speaking, we had very good people.

01:35:08.000 But we had some that we have to do better.

01:35:10.000 Attorney General, we have to get a great Attorney General.

01:35:13.000 And I'd work with the Libertarian Party on that.

01:35:15.000 I think it's very good because, you know, I view the Libertarian Party as almost a party of common sense, largely of common sense.

01:35:22.000 And I say that about the Republican Party too.

01:35:24.000 We're a party of common sense.

01:35:26.000 You want borders, but you want fairness.

01:35:28.000 You want a lot of things that a lot of other people don't talk about.

01:35:32.000 So we will work with a lot of people to get the right people in.

01:35:36.000 The difference is I now know sort of everybody.

01:35:38.000 Yeah.

01:35:39.000 And I'm not having to be relying on people that I didn't know very well and listen to their recommendations.

01:35:46.000 And I think we're gonna have phenomenal people.

01:35:48.000 I know the people.

01:35:49.000 I know the good ones, the bad ones, the weak ones, the strong ones.

01:35:52.000 I think we're gonna have great people.

01:35:53.000 We're friends with Kash Patel.

01:35:54.000 He was on the show just before you and that gives me a lot of confidence.

01:35:59.000 Yeah.

01:35:59.000 Well, Cash is fantastic.

01:36:00.000 He's an example of a good one.

01:36:02.000 We have some great people, but Cash was a great example.

01:36:05.000 Devin Nunes, as you know, he's fantastic.

01:36:07.000 Absolutely.

01:36:08.000 So many great people.

01:36:09.000 So when it came to foreign policy...

01:36:12.000 I'll be honest, I didn't vote for you in 2016.

01:36:14.000 I was jaded.

01:36:16.000 Obama let me down.

01:36:17.000 I'm from Chicago. 0.92

01:36:18.000 I thought 2016 was silly.

01:36:20.000 And then in 2020, with the timeline for getting out of Afghanistan, when you tried to get our troops out of Syria, my question is, why are we in Syria?

01:36:29.000 Who even knew?

01:36:30.000 And they lied to you, and they lied to us about the number of troops in there.

01:36:34.000 And so maybe it's a bit blunt for me to say I want to see people prosecuted for the lies of the American people, but in terms of foreign policy, perhaps this is a little bit of a biased interview, but I think you're the greatest president of my lifetime.

01:36:47.000 I appreciate it.

01:36:48.000 Ending the wars that we should not have been involved in.

01:36:51.000 Now the fear is World War III.

01:36:53.000 Yeah.

01:36:53.000 What are you looking at when you enter your next term to stopping the escalation?

01:36:57.000 Well, first of all, I'm the only one that is going to stop World War III, because this man can't put two sentences together.

01:37:03.000 He doesn't know what he's doing, doesn't know where he is.

01:37:06.000 And amazingly, it seems like he's going to be running.

01:37:09.000 You know, a lot of people say, do you think he'll make it to the starting gate?

01:37:11.000 Well, we'll see what happens.

01:37:13.000 But if you look at Viktor Orban, because we don't want to see wars.

01:37:17.000 I don't want to see wars.

01:37:18.000 I was in no wars other than we finished a war with ISIS and we completed it, 100% complete. 0.89

01:37:24.000 But I don't want to see wars.

01:37:25.000 I think it's so horrible, so unnecessary, so costly in terms of lives and money and that order.

01:37:32.000 And destroying these countries, you know, you're destroying culture. 0.98

01:37:35.000 When you look at Ukraine, that would have never happened if I were president.

01:37:39.000 You look at the October 7th attack on Israel, it would have never happened.

01:37:43.000 I look at your policies, I see secure the borders, bring jobs back.

01:37:46.000 I look at the Democrats and many Republicans and it's foreign war and foreign expansion.

01:37:51.000 What is that?

01:37:53.000 I think it's just a failed mentality.

01:37:55.000 It's crazy.

01:37:56.000 You can sell problems over a telephone and instead they start dropping bombs.

01:38:00.000 I see recently they're dropping bombs all over Yemen.

01:38:04.000 You don't have to do that.

01:38:05.000 You can talk in such a way where they respect you and they listen to you.

01:38:08.000 Viktor Orban of Hungary, you know, the leader, they call him a strong man.

01:38:12.000 Who cares if he's a strong man or not a strong man?

01:38:15.000 He's a very powerful guy.

01:38:16.000 He said the problem the world has is that Donald Trump is no longer president.

01:38:20.000 When he was president, China didn't play around, Russia didn't play around, nobody played around, and we had no problems.

01:38:26.000 Today the whole world is on fire.

01:38:28.000 I heard that funny, there was a conversation from a phone call where you said that there was a, they maybe thought there was a 5% chance you'd nuke them.

01:38:34.000 And so they kept them in line.

01:38:36.000 It's kind of scary to think about, but you take a look at the weakness we have now with Ukraine and the money that we are wasting. 0.77

01:38:43.000 You know, I'll bring it back to the economy.

01:38:45.000 This young guy I was talking to about immigration.

01:38:48.000 Actually, I'll put it this way.

01:38:49.000 There's a viral video where a young man's screaming that we're sending hundreds of billions to a country no one's ever heard of, and young people are hurting in this country.

01:38:57.000 Do you see any direct economic policy that is on your list for 2025?

01:39:03.000 Direct economic, but also direct in terms of warfare.

01:39:07.000 We're spending hundreds of billions of dollars all around the world, but when you look at Ukraine, we're giving all of this money.

01:39:14.000 Europe, which is much more affected by that war than us, is spending just a tiny fraction of what we're spending.

01:39:20.000 And you say, does anybody at least get involved in this?

01:39:23.000 But more importantly, I will end that war.

01:39:25.000 I'll get it ended.

01:39:27.000 Putin respects me, Zelensky respects me, I know all the players, and I want to get that war ended.

01:39:32.000 It's a horrible war, it's a terrible, there's no good war, but that's a horrible war.

01:39:37.000 And to think it would have never started.

01:39:39.000 It would have never started.

01:39:40.000 If the election turned out like it should have turned out, that war would have never started.

01:39:46.000 And you know, the number of lives we're talking about is far greater than the numbers that you hear.

01:39:50.000 When they blow up a town, or when they blow up These buildings, these massive buildings, surprisingly.

01:39:56.000 I mean, these are big.

01:39:56.000 That was my business.

01:39:57.000 These are big, powerful buildings.

01:40:00.000 And they come tumbling down to the ground and they say nobody was injured.

01:40:03.000 A lot of people were killed.

01:40:06.000 And the numbers are a lot different than you think.

01:40:08.000 You will see that.

01:40:09.000 You will see that happening when those numbers really get announced.

01:40:11.000 You're going to see it.

01:40:12.000 It's much worse than people think.

01:40:13.000 Here at the Libertarian Party National Convention, they had one of their presidential nominees said he wants to see Fauci, the heads of Moderna, Pfizer, Biden, and you locked up for what happened during COVID.

01:40:31.000 I don't agree with them, but there is a big sentiment.

01:40:34.000 Elon Musk tweeted, prosecute Fauci.

01:40:37.000 Fauci lied to Congress about the gain-of-function research that was going on, and now we have testimony that... Well, I'm the one that stopped the funding, and this was funding from before me.

01:40:46.000 I'm the one that stopped the funding.

01:40:48.000 Fauci wasn't a big player in my administration like he was after I left.

01:40:53.000 I mean, Biden made him the king of everything.

01:40:56.000 And if you take a look at that, Fauci was not the big player with me that he was.

01:41:01.000 And in fact, I did things that he didn't want to do.

01:41:03.000 He wanted to keep it open to China.

01:41:05.000 I said, you got to close it to China because it was all coming out of China. 1.00

01:41:08.000 It was coming out of Wuhan, which I said right at the beginning.

01:41:12.000 But the other thing is, and what people don't realize, I gave, I believe in federalism,

01:41:19.000 I gave the power to governors.

01:41:22.000 Some governors did a great job.

01:41:23.000 In all cases they were Republicans.

01:41:26.000 And some, like in South Carolina, Henry McMaster, kept everything open.

01:41:30.000 Kept everything open.

01:41:32.000 Others didn't.

01:41:33.000 The Democrats did a bad job.

01:41:34.000 Very bad job.

01:41:36.000 But basically, I gave that power over the states, I gave it to the governor, I gave it back to the states, and I think it's something which, when people realize that, it's something that they respect.

01:41:46.000 Will there be accountability for the lying to Congress when you get to appoint your new AG, Deputy AG?

01:41:53.000 Yeah, and we'll take a look at statute of limitations, because you know the statute of limitations are quite long, and we're going to be looking at that very seriously, yeah.

01:42:01.000 I got one big question for you.

01:42:02.000 So part of my family comes from Korea.

01:42:05.000 Good.

01:42:06.000 And you did what I think is one of the most tremendous things.

01:42:09.000 You crossed the demilitarized zone into North Korea with no security as a sign of goodwill and peace with the hostile nation. 0.59

01:42:16.000 And I've had people tell me it never happened.

01:42:18.000 So I think people need to know about it.

01:42:20.000 I'm wondering if you can just tell me how did that happen?

01:42:22.000 How did it come to be?

01:42:23.000 And it hasn't happened since.

01:42:25.000 Yeah.

01:42:25.000 And we were, when I met with, you know, with the handoff, you sort of meet with the previous president for a period of time.

01:42:31.000 The meeting lasted for quite a while with President Obama.

01:42:35.000 You sit in the Oval Office and you talk and the press is outside and you talk for a little while.

01:42:40.000 He said the single greatest threat we have is North Korea.

01:42:43.000 And I said, have you called them?

01:42:45.000 Have you tried to talk to them?

01:42:46.000 You know, little things like that.

01:42:48.000 And it didn't matter what the answer was.

01:42:50.000 He felt that that was the single biggest threat in the world, was North Korea. 0.62

01:42:55.000 And as you know, there was certain hostility when I first started, and all of a sudden it boiled down to something that was very beautiful, the way it happened.

01:43:02.000 And I got along with him very well.

01:43:05.000 And I will say that if Hillary won that race, you would have had a nuclear war and millions of people would have been killed. 0.99

01:43:11.000 And you weren't even close to that.

01:43:13.000 It never happened.

01:43:14.000 It was never going to happen.

01:43:15.000 I got along great with him.

01:43:17.000 And it just never was going to happen.

01:43:19.000 Were you at all scared in any way when you crossed into an enemy country?

01:43:23.000 Well, I wouldn't say that Secret Service was thrilled.

01:43:25.000 And in those blue buildings, there were lots of people in those buildings that I looked at.

01:43:29.000 You know the two blue buildings on each side with the windows.

01:43:32.000 And I looked in those windows and there were a lot of things happening in those.

01:43:36.000 Someday I'll tell you about it.

01:43:38.000 But, no, I felt very safe.

01:43:40.000 I felt my relationship with him, as you know, was very hostile.

01:43:44.000 Little rocket man and all.

01:43:46.000 But then, all of a sudden, it morphed.

01:43:48.000 He respected me.

01:43:49.000 I respected him.

01:43:50.000 And we ended up, once we got to know each other, we ended up Very good.

01:43:53.000 You're a very smart guy, very strong guy.

01:43:55.000 He's the absolute leader of that country.

01:43:57.000 You know, for those that think he's not, they're wrong.

01:44:00.000 And I got to know him very well.

01:44:01.000 I even did a press conference.

01:44:02.000 He never did a press conference before.

01:44:04.000 I said, would you like to do a press conference?

01:44:05.000 And we did a press conference, if you remember.

01:44:08.000 And then he said, that's the end of the press conference, and boom, everybody was pretty radically thrown out.

01:44:15.000 But it was a press conference, the only press conference he's ever done.

01:44:19.000 I got along with him great.

01:44:20.000 We had no nuclear war.

01:44:22.000 You would have had a nuclear war, guaranteed. 0.57

01:44:25.000 And you won't if, look, if we have the right president, if we have somebody that knows what he's doing, you're not going to have World War III.

01:44:33.000 If, on the other hand, we don't, you're going to end up in World War III, and it's going to be a war like no other because of the power of weaponry.

01:44:40.000 Many have actually been saying we're already in it.

01:44:42.000 The Hill published a piece saying we are in World War III and Biden is losing it.

01:44:46.000 And so my hope is... I don't see any logical path for a Biden presidency to fix the economy, to fix anything.

01:44:52.000 He can't fix anything.

01:44:53.000 He can't fix himself.

01:44:54.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:44:56.000 He had a new one the other day, Pakalaka.

01:44:57.000 I don't know if you saw that.

01:44:58.000 He was muttering on TV, something like that.

01:45:01.000 Now, crypto... You know, by the way, I just, just so you know, I know all the leaders.

01:45:07.000 They're at the top of their game.

01:45:08.000 They're sharp.

01:45:09.000 They're tough.

01:45:10.000 They're smart.

01:45:12.000 They live their country, or they do whatever they have to for their country, at a minimum.

01:45:17.000 And when they see this guy come in, I think they can't believe it.

01:45:21.000 I know they can't believe it.

01:45:22.000 It's not the right person.

01:45:24.000 So we'll do a couple quick ones.

01:45:25.000 We don't have much time.

01:45:26.000 You announced you're taking cryptocurrency.

01:45:28.000 What we're doing is we're backing it as a form of, as a field.

01:45:34.000 And we have to.

01:45:35.000 Because otherwise somebody else is going to be doing it from another country.

01:45:38.000 And as you know, they're already trying.

01:45:40.000 And it's going to happen.

01:45:42.000 And we're going to help it happen.

01:45:45.000 And it's something that can be very good.

01:45:46.000 I think it can be very good.

01:45:48.000 No central bank digital currencies?

01:45:50.000 No digital, no central bank.

01:45:52.000 And one more big one.

01:45:54.000 Will you pardon Julian Assange?

01:45:56.000 Well, I'm going to talk about that today, and we're going to give it very serious consideration, and we're going to have a couple of other things to say in this speech that I think you're going to love.

01:46:05.000 I've heard some rumors.

01:46:05.000 And you've gotten so much out of me, I should leave a little bit for the speech, don't you think?

01:46:10.000 Uh, Mr. President, it is an honor and a privilege.

01:46:12.000 I really do appreciate you sitting down with me.

01:46:13.000 And you're very respected, I have to say, when I did a little research.

01:46:17.000 Yeah.

01:46:18.000 And some of my guys said, and I've met you before, but they said just a very respected guy.

01:46:22.000 It's my honor.

01:46:23.000 Even though we're keeping that big crowd.

01:46:24.000 That's the biggest crowd they've ever had.

01:46:26.000 We're keeping them waiting just for this interview.

01:46:28.000 So congratulations.

01:46:29.000 Thank you so much.

01:46:30.000 Shall we?

01:46:30.000 Thank you, my friend.

01:46:31.000 Thank you.

01:46:31.000 Appreciate it very much.

01:46:32.000 Great.

01:46:34.000 That was fun.

01:46:35.000 You got my vote.

01:46:36.000 We better win.

01:46:37.000 We're not going to have a country.

01:46:39.000 Yeah.
