Triggered - Donald Trump Jr - America First Legal Founder Stephen Miller on Suing Biden & 2024 Strategy | TRIGGERED Ep. 25

00:00:00.000 you you

00:00:53.000 you Good evening and welcome to another episode of Triggered.

00:00:59.000 Today we're joined by MAGA warrior Stephen Miller.

00:01:03.000 Stephen's one of the smartest minds in American politics today.

00:01:06.000 He worked in the Trump White House as a senior advisor to my father, focused heavily on immigration and the insanity that's going on at our border, so we're going to talk a lot about that.

00:01:17.000 Since then, he's founded America First Legal, and I think you'll really enjoy this interview because everyone asks, how do we fight back?

00:01:25.000 He's the guy that's actually fighting those battles.

00:01:28.000 He's the guy that's out there suing the radical left and making sure there's some accountability.

00:01:33.000 not just complaining about it on social media, we're good at that, but that's the actual,

00:01:39.000 real work that has to be done to make sure we can combat these policies.

00:01:43.000 So you're going to like this interview with Stephen Miller.

00:01:45.000 and before that we gotta do a little brief rundown of the headlines because apparently everything

00:01:52.000 is racist these days, guys, including, wait for it, roads.

00:01:57.000 Yes, according to Team Biden, the roads, the pieces of asphalt that you drive on are racist.

00:02:05.000 The roads. You might think that it's just the statues that are racist.

00:02:12.000 But no, no, no. It's the roads that go around the statues that are racist, too.

00:02:17.000 Listen to Rhodes scholar Pete Buttigieg explain.

00:02:21.000 We've got a crisis when it comes to roadway fatalities in America.

00:02:25.000 We lose about 40,000 people every year.

00:02:29.000 It's a level that's comparable to gun violence.

00:02:32.000 And we see a lot of racial disparities, black and brown, Americans, tribal citizens, and rural residents.

00:02:39.000 Much more likely to lose their lives whether it's in a car or as a pedestrian being hit by a car.

00:02:45.000 There are a lot of reasons related to discrimination, related to even the ways that roads are designed and built.

00:02:52.000 Who has access to a safe street design that's got crosswalks and good lighting?

00:02:58.000 Who doesn't have that access?

00:03:00.000 That can drive disparities and we have a responsibility to act on that.

00:03:06.000 Do you catch that, folks? Pete Buttigieg says that minorities are dying, dying, because of the way roads are designed and built.

00:03:20.000 It's unclear to me how a slab of asphalt can be racist.

00:03:24.000 But somehow, Pete Buttigieg might have a point about roads.

00:03:29.000 Check out how these drivers were attacked in Chicago this weekend.

00:03:33.000 Crowds from downtown.

00:03:35.000 And new video into our newsroom shows more of last night's chaos.

00:03:38.000 People were seen kicking, passing cars, crowding the streets, dancing on top of parked vehicles.

00:03:45.000 And we're still waiting to find out and hear if police made any arrests from this last night.

00:03:50.000 Earlier in the day yesterday, a viewer shared cell phone video showing a group of people jumping on a car that is driving along Michigan Avenue.

00:03:59.000 Remember, folks, it wasn't enough that the bridges at the border and nearby were racist because they weren't high enough to accommodate the migrants that are illegally coming across our border. 0.82

00:04:11.000 That's when we started realizing that our infrastructure was racist.

00:04:14.000 But I guess today, everything is racist.

00:04:17.000 Now Chicago's recently elected mayor, Brandon Johnson, responded.

00:04:23.000 To the video you just saw and said in a statement that while he condemns the violence, it's not constructive to demonize youth.

00:04:31.000 It's not constructive to demonize youth that are vandalizing a city. 0.93

00:04:36.000 This is how insane liberals have become. 0.99

00:04:40.000 You can claim that the roads are designed to kill black people and no one even questions it. 1.00

00:04:46.000 Media, everyone will go along with it as though it's true, as though it's not somehow insane, as though it's the gospel. 0.98

00:04:53.000 But when a group of teenagers starts jumping on people's cars, you can't demonize the teenagers.

00:05:01.000 It appears that the defund the police supporting mayor will not fix Chicago.

00:05:07.000 Shocking. You left Lori Lightfoot because of the disastrous policies and you may have found someone who's actually worse.

00:05:16.000 These liberal cities and states seem determined to find out how many people they can get to leave.

00:05:25.000 How many of the taxpayers that fund the insane nonsense that they're pushing on our kids every day can they drive out? 1.00

00:05:33.000 And the answer seems like a lot, based on the number of out-of-state license plates that I see here in Florida and elsewhere where I'm in conservative states.

00:05:44.000 And our next story, in the woke lunacy, it never ends.

00:05:50.000 California proposes to bring equity to electricity.

00:05:58.000 You can't make it up, folks.

00:05:59.000 California, the People's Republic.

00:06:01.000 In California, the power companies are proposing to get rid of the simple billing system that has existed for decades.

00:06:08.000 In other words, you get charged for the electricity that you use.

00:06:13.000 Now California's utility companies are proposing that your bill would be scaled based on your household income, not how much you actually use.

00:06:23.000 Just another example of putting woke lunacy over solutions that will actually work.

00:06:30.000 I don't know how you can stay in California or any of these blue states anymore, but if you're going to leave, please make sure you don't import your insane values with you.

00:06:42.000 Because that's what's destroying the red states in America. 0.98

00:06:45.000 Where you leave and flee a system that has failed you, but you bring like 95% of it with you wherever you go, that's a real problem.

00:06:56.000 And we have some more leaks.

00:07:00.000 Big breaks in the leaks that have rocked the Pentagon in the past week.

00:07:06.000 Finally, we found the first whistleblower that liberals don't like.

00:07:10.000 Shocking! Jack Teixeira, a 21-year-old member of the Air National Guard, was arrested last week for leaking dozens of highly classified documents to his friends online.

00:07:20.000 These documents later spread throughout the Internet, and that included the revelation that the United States Special Forces are in Ukraine fighting along with...

00:07:30.000 The Ukrainians against the Russians. 0.58

00:07:34.000 Think about that for a second, folks.

00:07:36.000 We're fighting not just a proxy war anymore, but we're actually boots on the ground against the world's largest by volume nuclear superpower.

00:07:49.000 We're spying against American allies like South Korea, other parts of the minor leaks.

00:07:55.000 And if Jack to share a leak that Trump was waging an unlawful war with a nuclear superpower, he'd have like three shows on CNN and he'd be on book tours for the rest of his life.

00:08:07.000 Right? Remember Chow Thief Alexander Vindemann? 0.97

00:08:11.000 The difference between Alexander Vindemann, who was made a hero for leaking stuff like this to the press, and Jack is that Jack may have inadvertently averted World War III as opposed to pushing us towards it like Vindemann did.

00:08:26.000 Now, that didn't stop Vindemann from becoming a hero because it's just different if you're a conservative.

00:08:31.000 It's just different if you're the guy trying to stop World War III like Trump was, you'd

00:08:37.000 be accused of actually being able to start it.

00:08:40.000 That's how lopsided a world we're living.

00:08:42.000 Now, I'm not for leaks that put our troops, or perhaps our covert operatives, at risk.

00:08:49.000 Let's be clear.

00:08:51.000 But the media response is about the leak, not about the fact that we're actually waging

00:08:58.000 this war that could escalate to nuclear Armageddon.

00:09:02.000 That they don't even talk about that aspect is crazy.

00:09:05.000 The media would be covering this up totally differently if it happened under the Trump administration.

00:09:13.000 But now we know we're doing what many of us have suspected for a while.

00:09:18.000 And yet... Hey, it seems like it's almost out of the news already.

00:09:22.000 But I'm sure, unlike the leakers against Trump, Jack Teixeira is going to spend a lot of time in jail because they're going to make sure there's consequences for this.

00:09:32.000 And not the other way around.

00:09:34.000 And lastly, guys, perhaps the most troubling story we've covered.

00:09:37.000 A Washington state bill that would stop parents from interviewing on child gender transitions.

00:09:45.000 A bill in Washington state literally says it would prevent parents from intervening in the child's decision to receive gender transition treatments.

00:09:56.000 Think about that for a second. Bill 5599 would allow A host of homes for runaway youths to escape for their parents' consent and push this crap on minors without parental permission. 0.95

00:10:12.000 This is state-sanctioned kidnapping. 0.87

00:10:14.000 It was voted on in the Washington House by 100% of Democrats.

00:10:21.000 And it would nullify parents of their child's whereabouts or tell them that they were undergoing gender transition procedures so they can make a permanent decision pushed on them by either doctors or their teachers, but not parents.

00:10:35.000 And the parents who'd have to consent to so many things throughout that kid's life in a much smaller scale are going to be totally irrelevant to the process.

00:10:47.000 This is stripping parents of their rights.

00:10:50.000 And it's also just going to put kids in more danger.

00:10:53.000 Who's more easily manipulated than a young child?

00:10:57.000 And now you're going to make it illegal for parents to do that?

00:11:00.000 When will parents be criminalized for not going along with this insanity?

00:11:04.000 When will they be thrown in prison?

00:11:08.000 And it could drive a wedge between vulnerable kids and their parents.

00:11:13.000 It's downright dangerous.

00:11:15.000 It's insane.

00:11:17.000 But unfortunately, it's where the Democrat Party is today.

00:11:21.000 Because it was voted on by 100% of the Democrats in Washington and zero Republicans.

00:11:29.000 So just remember that.

00:11:32.000 Well, guys, today we're joined by America First legal founder Stephen Miller.

00:11:38.000 He was also a senior advisor in the Trump White House, and we'll talk to him about all the incredible legal work he's doing, as well as what's the path forward for MAGA in 2024.

00:11:49.000 Stephen is one of the people that got crushed and derided, and they called him every name in the book,

00:11:57.000 just strong on immigration and build-the-wall policies, just a great America-first fighter, so you're going to

00:12:04.000 really like it.

00:12:05.000 But first, I want to thank our sponsors who make the show possible.

00:12:10.000 And now, guys, more than ever, we just have to make sure we're supporting the companies who support you.

00:12:15.000 And that's why I want you to go check out Patriot Mobile, which is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.

00:12:22.000 Patriot Mobile puts America first with every call.

00:12:27.000 And you get the same coverage nationwide as you would with the other major carriers.

00:12:30.000 But rather than giving your money to, say, AT&T, who's spending it and canceling OAN and Newsmax and other conservative programs, literally trying to cancel our voice, Patriot Mobile provides and supports people who share your values.

00:12:47.000 They put their dollars into action, donating a portion of every dollar earned to support groups that fight for the First Amendment, the right to keep and bear arms, the sanctity of life, and protecting our brave police and first responders.

00:13:01.000 So support the companies who support you.

00:13:03.000 Guys, let's face it. You're going to have a cell phone anyway.

00:13:06.000 So have your cell phone with someone who shares your values.

00:13:10.000 Vote with your dollars and vote to support Patriot Mobile.

00:13:14.000 For free activation, go to PatriotMobile.com slash Don Jr.

00:13:24.000 Check them out. Again, guys, you're going to have a cell phone.

00:13:28.000 So why don't you have a cell phone?

00:13:31.000 Who gives back to the stuff that you believe in rather than give to the people who hate your guts.

00:13:38.000 I also have to make sure to tell you all about Goldco because we're watching the world go through a crazy transition right now.

00:13:45.000 We're seeing major banks fail and falter.

00:13:49.000 And I want to make sure you're protecting your retirement savings from inflation, from 0.99

00:13:52.000 dollar devaluation, from stupid decisions like Joe Biden using his first veto in office 0.98

00:13:59.000 to make sure that you have to use ESG when watching out for your retirement. 0.99

00:14:03.000 You know, they're woke nonsense because obviously they're looking out for you.

00:14:06.000 So I want you to be prepared.

00:14:10.000 It feels like 2008 all over again, where we're going to hit a wall going a thousand miles

00:14:14.000 an hour and owning tangible, physical gold and silver can help diversify your portfolio

00:14:22.000 and protect you from some of the insanity.

00:14:25.000 From precious metals, IRAs to direct purchases of gold and silver, GoldCo has helped thousands of Americans diversify and protect their retirement savings.

00:14:35.000 So support the companies who support you.

00:14:38.000 A key tenet of this show, guys.

00:14:40.000 If you're going to go and you're going to diversify, do it with guys who share your values.

00:14:44.000 Go check out DonJrGold.com to learn more.

00:14:47.000 So that's D-O-N-J-R-G-O-L-D. Pretty simple. 1.00

00:14:51.000 We keep it easy for you guys. DonJrGold.com.

00:14:56.000 Learn all about it.

00:14:57.000 Make your decisions wisely, but make sure you're looking at these things so you can protect yourselves from the storm that seems to be coming.

00:15:05.000 So you guys are the best.

00:15:07.000 And now we're going to go over to Stephen Miller.

00:15:11.000 Alright guys, this one's going to be a great one because we're with a true MAGA America first patriot.

00:15:17.000 We have Stephen Miller, someone who's taken his fair share of hits.

00:15:22.000 He's been called everything.

00:15:24.000 He's actually one of the first people I know who's apparently a Jewish anti-Semite. 0.81

00:15:28.000 Stephen, they called you all of those things for your immigration policies and just the lunacy of the left.

00:15:34.000 But he's also done some amazing things as an America First legal founder.

00:15:40.000 So Stephen, welcome to the show.

00:15:43.000 Thanks for everything you're doing.

00:15:44.000 It's so important. Thank you.

00:15:46.000 Why don't you give the audience a little bit of update of what you've been doing since sort of the Trump White House?

00:15:50.000 Because it's so critical that we're fighting these battles this way, you know, not just talking about it and dunking on social.

00:15:57.000 Yes, that's such an important point.

00:15:58.000 And, you know, I love social media.

00:16:00.000 You love social media. We all love social media.

00:16:02.000 But too often, conservatives think that, just as you said, dunking on social media is enough.

00:16:08.000 Like, I love a great meme.

00:16:09.000 We all love a great meme, right?

00:16:11.000 Hey, listen, easy. Don't go too far with this one.

00:16:13.000 No, I love the meme. But the question is, having identified a problem, educated people about it, inspired people about it, what are you going to do now with that knowledge in the real world, right?

00:16:23.000 And so my organization, America First Legal, which I founded after leaving the Trump administration in 2021, has a very simple mission, which is that we take the bad guys to court.

00:16:35.000 In a sentence, that's what we do.

00:16:36.000 So sometimes it's the Biden administration.

00:16:38.000 Sometimes it's, say, the state of New York.

00:16:41.000 Sometimes it's a crazy school district or radical-left superintendent.

00:16:45.000 Sometimes, as it has been recently, it's the National Archives.

00:16:48.000 We've seen the FBI and the DOJ. We go after the bad guys in court like they've been doing to us for decades unanswered.

00:16:57.000 My inspiration for it was living through that in the Trump administration.

00:17:00.000 Where they would sue, sue, sue, sue, sue. 0.97

00:17:03.000 And I said we have to create something on the outside to do the same thing to them.

00:17:07.000 And so whether it's immigration policy, transgender policy, whether it's the corruption of the Biden family, we are filing one lawsuit after another to try to either stop bad policies or to expose corruption to the highest levels of government.

00:17:21.000 Yeah, because I mean, I talk about that a lot.

00:17:23.000 Like, man, probably no one maybe out there is more guilty of it than me in terms of, you know, dunking on the I told you so, you know, Wuhan lab leak theory, vaccines, you know, now, obviously, the big one.

00:17:35.000 Hey, like, we've been in a proxy war with Russia.

00:17:37.000 Now it seems like we're in a real war with Russia.

00:17:41.000 But we dunk, you know, a year after it's sort of obvious and we're put down and like, that's great, but they still got the win.

00:17:49.000 They still took the W at the time.

00:17:50.000 There's no real consequence. So you're actually creating the mechanism for which there is consequence for their lies.

00:17:59.000 For the way they've handled things, the way they've weaponized the government and its systems against the people and or against people like my father, which would be their political enemies across the aisle.

00:18:12.000 Yes, as an example of that point, one of our biggest recent revelations is that we drew a direct link through our oversight work between the Biden White House and the raid on Mar-a-Lago.

00:18:25.000 This is obviously one of the most explosive things that have been uncovered in the last two years.

00:18:30.000 But the way that we did it was we actually had to hire the lawyers who had the expertise, who had the background, who had the skill set to do the work to uncover this information.

00:18:40.000 And now it's been made public contemporaneously.

00:18:43.000 To your point, finding out about it seven years later is useless.

00:18:47.000 Yeah, that's so important.

00:18:49.000 I mean, talk about it because, you know, of course...

00:18:52.000 Of course we all knew they were in cahoots, just like we know they're in cahoots in New York with my father's indictment.

00:18:59.000 And the guy that was brought in to take the zombie case over was someone that worked for Biden and that department and yada yada.

00:19:06.000 Like, of course we know, just like we knew You know, Wuhan started in the lab that studies the exact virus in question, and yet if you said that, you were canceled, you were thrown off, you were a doctor, you lost tenure, even though it was always the most obvious.

00:19:21.000 Of course they were involved with the raid.

00:19:24.000 Of course people were making those calls, but you find that out two years down the road, it doesn't have any impact.

00:19:30.000 You find it out now, while they're still trying to litigate it, and it all of a sudden makes their case, sort of throws a lot of prejudice in there, obviously.

00:19:40.000 Well, I mean, so to this point, we've lived through this cycle where they will give up the game, as you said, after they've gotten their win.

00:19:47.000 So two years later or three years later, they'll be like, oh, wait, no, actually, it was all a hoax.

00:19:51.000 You're right. And then they're on to the next thing.

00:19:52.000 They're on to the next thing. And a great example of this that you just mentioned, of course, is the Wuhan virus, the China virus, where everyone knew it came from a lab, but you were demonized relentlessly for saying so.

00:20:04.000 They only allowed even a little bit of information out showing that was true long after it was of any value as a political thing for the left.

00:20:13.000 And so in this case, for example, we can show that the National Archives misled Congress.

00:20:19.000 That means that the committees in Congress can act now.

00:20:23.000 They can use their subpoena power now.

00:20:25.000 They can hold hearings now.

00:20:26.000 that can drag people up to get deposed right now when it matters. I think the

00:20:31.000 whole lesson here, whether you call yourself a conservative or a

00:20:34.000 traditionalist or a nationalist or a populist, whatever your label is, if

00:20:37.000 you're one of those people whose right-thinking is not part of the crazy

00:20:40.000 left, what you have to learn how to do is use the machinery of government, use the

00:20:46.000 machinery of society to impose your will when you have the authority to do so.

00:20:53.000 The left is so good at this.

00:20:55.000 When they run an agency or run a committee or run a corporation, they use that power to impose their will.

00:21:01.000 When conservatives have that same authority, they say, oh no, we just want to be neutral.

00:21:07.000 It's all the same.

00:21:09.000 What's the difference? We're just going to sit back and let things happen.

00:21:11.000 That is a recipe for complete and total domination of the left over us.

00:21:18.000 So what exactly is it that you guys found as it related to the Mar-a-Lago raid, for those who don't know?

00:21:24.000 What is it that you found and what doors does that open for us to finally fight back?

00:21:31.000 So very specifically, what we found is that the Biden White House Counsel's Office used a special access request that is supposed to be for expressly Routine purposes, for example, we want to find out how the Clinton administration implemented its internal White House ethics rules.

00:21:52.000 So National Archives, can you send us like the Clinton White House Counsel's Office ethics guidelines that will give us technical guidance on something we're dealing with?

00:22:00.000 Those for strictly technical procedural pragmatic purposes, the White House Counsel's Office can ask the National Archives to share some documents and that would make sense.

00:22:09.000 In this case, the Biden White House asked the National Archives for the documents that had been obtained from Mar-a-Lago, and then they turned around and transferred those documents to the Department of Justice.

00:22:22.000 So they acted as the go-between.

00:22:25.000 I mean, that's a big deal.

00:22:27.000 I mean, that's sort of like, I mean, I wish we would have had you, you know, I loved you in the White House, but maybe had you out there during Russia, Russia, Russia, right?

00:22:34.000 Where we could have figured out that, you know, the FBI leaked stuff to the New York Times who printed it.

00:22:42.000 And then the FBI used the printed article about what they leaked to justify the grounds for their investigation, even though they were the ones that leaked it, but they had no actual grounds.

00:22:53.000 That's about as corrupt as it gets, but this is exactly what we're seeing here.

00:22:57.000 Right. And so this is a case where that means that the Biden White House and the National Archives and the Department of Justice have all been misleading the American people since this whole thing began.

00:23:07.000 And again, it's up to the House now with the majority to use that subpoena power and the deposition power to now dig even deeper and hold people accountable for Yeah, because it's not like they just did it.

00:23:36.000 Like, they were asked repeatedly about this.

00:23:39.000 I mean, the press secretary and I believe even Biden himself were asked directly, you know, we don't know anything about it.

00:23:44.000 We don't know anything about it. I mean, so beyond that, they lied directly to the people on a daily basis and on multiple occasions.

00:23:52.000 They've been lying repeatedly and continuously.

00:23:54.000 Now, I will say there's another important point here that we have to understand, and you also, you referenced it where the FBI was planning stories and then using those support stories to engage in domestic espionage, which is that we have to realize how freaking good they are at what they do. 0.98

00:24:09.000 Like, you know, we mocked them, and we should, because they're crazy. 0.89

00:24:13.000 But they're also so good at their sabotage.

00:24:34.000 We need, as a movement, if you have the power to do something, again, if you run a committee, if you run a corporation, certainly if you're in the legal business, as I am now, you have to use all your wits, all your resources, all your energy to try to hold the bad guys to account.

00:24:52.000 Yeah, because that's the problem, right?

00:24:53.000 The Democrats, you know, they have a distinct advantage beyond the fact that they're just better at it and more sort of evil in how they play the game.

00:25:02.000 You know, they have the full weight and force of big tech.

00:25:05.000 They have the full weight and force of the mainstream media.

00:25:08.000 They have the full weight and force of big social for the most part.

00:25:11.000 You know, all sort of doing their bidding for them.

00:25:13.000 So when they're not exactly quick about getting us answers, you know, they're slow rolling and hoping for, you know, another election.

00:25:19.000 We can just make it go away.

00:25:20.000 You know, when we do catch them, you know, it's not really news.

00:25:24.000 I mean, people like yourself and guys like me can highlight it, which is why, A, it's so important for people to, like, share this kind of content so that they can learn about what you're doing, but they can also learn about what's actually going on because so few people...

00:25:37.000 Even on the conservative side are willing to actually say it because that puts them in the direct crosshairs of the radical left who will go after them, who will dox them, who will go protest in front of their families, who will drag them through the mud.

00:25:51.000 It's an easy existence in Washington, D.C. to be a weakling conservative and to fold to them.

00:25:57.000 They let you get by.

00:25:58.000 But if you're actually a fighter, you know, they're going to make up stuff about you.

00:26:02.000 They're going to try to put you in jail.

00:26:03.000 And they've done as much to a lot of the fighters or tried.

00:26:07.000 Yes. That last point, though, is what really takes it to the next level, where we've gone from being just a radical left government into the realm of true Marxist-socialist Tyranny is they've now gone to the step of saying, and if you really become a problem for us, we will fabricate a crime and put you in jail.

00:26:31.000 The kind of things that we see in despotic third world regimes has now come home to America, and that ultimately is the greatest threat to our freedom. 0.97

00:26:41.000 Yeah, I mean, we had Mike Davis on there talking about it, and it's like, you know, I do this, it's my family.

00:26:45.000 I'm pretty, you know, vested, and I'm watching.

00:26:48.000 You know, and when he was talking about the links of the people who Alvin Bragg in New York brought in from the Biden administration to try to sort of, you know, revive this dead horse to go after my father, because the last seven years apparently weren't enough, and even the Even the sort of judicial branches of government that actually oversee those things, they passed. But no, no, no.

00:27:10.000 We're going to keep going and we're going to figure out a way to make that happen so that they can get their narrative and their photograph.

00:27:16.000 And that's truly scary.

00:27:18.000 And again, if they can do it to Trump, they can do it to anyone.

00:27:21.000 And if they'll do it to Trump, who won't they do it to?

00:27:23.000 Because I mean, he has the ability to fight back.

00:27:25.000 He's got an incredible platform.

00:27:27.000 He's got the money to deal with it.

00:27:29.000 You know, they've tried breaking people for next to nothing.

00:27:32.000 In many cases, just knowing it was a lie.

00:27:34.000 I mean, I did 50 hours of testimony for treason, you know, minor details of crime punishable by death.

00:27:40.000 Not everyone has the means that I had to be able to fight that, to have the lawyers to,

00:27:45.000 you know, not everyone has the sort of stomach They rely on the fact that they will bankrupt people, that they will so ruin their lives, that they will so hound them, their business, their families, that they will give up And even plead to a crime they didn't even commit just to end the pain.

00:28:01.000 You know, not to get too far off onto this, but I mean, you know, as an example, because again, I lived through it.

00:28:05.000 You know, we had a national security advisor at the start of the administration who was famous for being skeptical of the deep state.

00:28:11.000 So he's the first one they took out, right?

00:28:13.000 He's the first one they took out. 0.91

00:28:15.000 They planted an elaborate intelligence operation on the freaking national security advisor. 0.59

00:28:20.000 You had FBI agents planning a national security entrapment operation on the national security advisor for the president of the United States to try to get him thrown into jail. 0.74

00:28:31.000 And if he wouldn't relent, then they would bleed him dry and bankrupt him of every penny.

00:28:36.000 That's who we're up against. I mean, people need to realize that.

00:28:39.000 Yeah, no, I mean, it's sort of interesting, right?

00:28:41.000 Last week, you know, we saw, you know, this guy, you know, Jack Teixeira, 21-year-old, you know, air guardsman or whatever, that magically had, like, really high clearances, apparently, for some reason.

00:28:52.000 Like, this isn't a setup. You know, just waiting to unfold.

00:28:56.000 But, you know, I'm sure we'll learn about that later, and I'm sure I'll be called a conspiracy theorist, and I'll be proven right in a couple of weeks.

00:29:02.000 But, you know, Jack Teixeira...

00:29:05.000 Again, I'm not for leaking information that could get our troops killed or our assets, critical assets in other countries killed.

00:29:12.000 At the same time, this kid could have perhaps helped avert World War III. And I see them dragging him through the thing and he's going to go to jail for life and all of this stuff.

00:29:22.000 But I can't help but wonder, like, say, Alexander, you know, child thief Alexander Vindemann was made a hero for trying to leak against the duly elected president of the United States.

00:29:34.000 You know, this guy is going to go down as a traitor for perhaps preventing World War III against the largest nuclear arsenal in the world.

00:29:43.000 You know, I think that if this guy leaked, that Trump was fighting, actually fighting, because that's what we know now.

00:29:51.000 Now, many of us probably knew that already because, you know, we've been watching for the last six years, but we're actually fighting a war.

00:29:59.000 Without the knowledge of the people and without the approval of Congress against the largest nuclear stockpile in the world.

00:30:06.000 And, like, I have a feeling that this guy, like, there is no level of hero to explain how big a hero this guy would be if he did this under the Trump administration to the detriment of Trump.

00:30:20.000 But under Biden, who's actually fighting this war, because, you know, we haven't been in a war in nine months, all of a sudden it's a big problem.

00:30:29.000 Yeah, I mean, there's so much to unpack there.

00:30:30.000 On the last point, yes, he would be celebrated in the same way that Alexander Vindman was, in the same way that all the people who leaked and who plotted and who schemed against the duly elected President of the United States for the entirety of the Trump administration, of course, before and after, too.

00:30:48.000 And so that comparison is very useful, you know, the Vindman comparison, because it's the same country, right?

00:30:55.000 Ukraine. And in one case, it was to try to undermine President Trump's effort to battle corruption in Ukraine, right?

00:31:03.000 I was always led to believe that fighting corruption was a good thing.

00:31:07.000 No, no, no. That's only if you're a conservative.

00:31:10.000 If you're a Democrat, corruption's okay, as evidenced by, you know, let's just say the differences between me and Hunter and the way we were simultaneously treated.

00:31:19.000 If you had Hunter's laptop, you would be in jail for a thousand years.

00:31:24.000 I'd be in Gitmo and there would be no key.

00:31:27.000 Extraordinary rendition territory.

00:31:29.000 But the point is that Vindman, who stymied through this very elaborate scheme, the effort to battle corruption in the foreign country, and of course in the process to wound President Trump, which of course did the bidding in that sense, or I should say Who did that help?

00:31:48.000 Who did impeaching President Trump help, right?

00:31:51.000 It helped those who wanted a war between Ukraine and Russia, which is a very important point. 1.00

00:31:56.000 He was made into a hero, an absolute hero.

00:31:59.000 And now you have in this case, again, you and I, we both acknowledge, we don't know the details, we don't know anything about it, we'll find out more.

00:32:04.000 But in this case, you have somebody who's sharing information about an illicit war, an undeclared war against a nuclear armed power, and he's being made into the greatest villain in history.

00:32:16.000 And I would just know that if you think about the degree of severity of what crimes a president can commit, of what crimes a president can commit, is there a more serious crime for a president to commit than an undeclared war with boots on the ground against a nuclear armed power?

00:32:34.000 That's about as serious a crime as I can imagine a president committing.

00:32:37.000 Oh, listen, I think that there was no question, if Trump was doing this, just reverse...

00:32:43.000 We'd be in impeachment number 3 or 12 or 17, whichever one we'd be at.

00:32:48.000 How is that not an impeachable offense?

00:32:51.000 Trying to stop corruption in one of the most corrupt countries in the world was apparently impeachable, but waging a war?

00:33:01.000 Right, and if there are in fact boots on the ground- An unlawful law is apparently okay these days.

00:33:06.000 Right, that makes us, you know, the, if we are in fact, we have boots on the ground, then we are engaged in direct combat for the first time in history between the United States and Russia with their massive nuclear stockpiles.

00:33:23.000 In other words, this is not a proxy at that point in time.

00:33:25.000 And we already know from what's been publicly reported, what's publicly available, just how much and to the extent that we are managing and we are providing the intelligence for and we are providing the operations for this war.

00:33:37.000 And so this could in fact lead to, as you mentioned, World War III. And I think this is the most important issue in society today.

00:33:45.000 And like you, I would never support and never have supported any leaking of any information in any context that would ever put our troops in harm's way.

00:33:53.000 They would ever put our military in any kind of danger or disadvantage.

00:33:57.000 But we're talking about something different here.

00:33:58.000 We're talking about a media that for four years did everything they can to encourage, support, and reward leaking that directly undermined America's core national security interests, that celebrated it at every turn.

00:34:12.000 Every foreign leader call transcript that they could leak, they leaked.

00:34:16.000 Everything they could do. But now, in this one case, now suddenly, they are working relentlessly on behalf of the Pentagon to stop and end all leaks.

00:34:27.000 That tells you that their true agenda is their support for the globalist war machine.

00:34:33.000 Yeah, no, it's pretty scary.

00:34:34.000 And like I said, for me, my mentality on a lot of this has changed.

00:34:39.000 If I look at Edward Snowden, six, seven years ago, whenever that happened, before I was sort of Before my eyes were opened to just how bad an actor our government is, just how big a liars they are in these things, while sort of preaching and claiming the moral high ground.

00:34:58.000 Same with Julian Assange. 0.75

00:34:59.000 I think seven years ago, these people are traitorous, they're terrible.

00:35:03.000 Now I'm looking at it, I'm like...

00:35:05.000 I don't know, like, isn't it sort of our government that's doing that?

00:35:08.000 Like, I mean, again, I would never want to put our troops, our assets, whatever, in harm's way.

00:35:14.000 But if we're waging these wars while claiming some sort of moral high ground, if we're talking about, you know, the actions of Vladimir Putin and how terrible it is, I'm like, well, how are...

00:35:24.000 How are we acting any differently on a world stage?

00:35:27.000 So now that I understand, having been through it for six, seven years, just how bad an actor the United States government is, my mentality on this has changed sort of rapidly.

00:35:39.000 Again, I don't want to encourage anything that ever hurts our troops or our assets, but like...

00:35:43.000 If we're, like, perhaps on the brink of World War III because a couple, you know, unelected officials in the military or perhaps Joe Biden wants to fund a war or perhaps he's doing this because he's being pressured because the people over there that have vested interest in this have another copy of Hunter's laptop and or know about a lot more money transferred to the Biden family or whatever it may be.

00:36:09.000 You know, the fact that no one's even asking these questions is truly scary to me, and I'm not willing to risk World War III or nuclear Armageddon to cover for a couple more million dollars that Hunter Biden was able to finagle out of a corrupt regime.

00:36:22.000 That's another very important point, which is that we don't know to what extent foreign countries have substantial blackmail leverage over the Biden family and over Joe Biden in particular.

00:36:34.000 Which colors all of this.

00:36:36.000 And that's why it's so important Congress get to the bottom of the Biden family investigations.

00:36:40.000 It's not just a question. I mean, of course, they committed a number of crimes, but it's also a question of to what extent that is compromising our whole national security.

00:36:48.000 Make one other point people often forget about is that Obama hardened one of the biggest leakers of national security secrets, which was Bradley Manning.

00:36:58.000 And I guess that he changed his gender.

00:37:00.000 Listen, that's... Get out of jail free card.

00:37:03.000 I put up a tweet last week right after.

00:37:06.000 I go, hey man, this guy's got about 30 seconds to become trans. 0.96

00:37:09.000 Otherwise, he's going to jail for life. 0.86

00:37:11.000 If he becomes trans, he'll probably be fine. 0.84

00:37:12.000 He needs to get a pair of high heels really fast and he can get that sentence commuted.

00:37:17.000 I actually put a nice foundation job.

00:37:19.000 I put a poll up on my Instagram page.

00:37:21.000 I was like, hey, listen, would you chop it off when you go through the surgery to avoid life in prison?

00:37:26.000 So, you know, we may have to reveal the results of that one.

00:37:28.000 I got to go back and check. I forgot to check where that is, but it seems like that's sort of the perpetual get-out-of-jail-free card today for the left.

00:37:37.000 But what's amazing, Stephen, about this point is, you know, it's so obvious, just like Wuhan was so obvious, and just like so many of them were so obvious, but Why is there literally no one in the media for the last two years as we've been waging this proxy war and now it's no longer a proxy war.

00:37:54.000 Now it's pretty clear we're just in a war, although Congress didn't approve it and the American public wasn't aware.

00:38:01.000 Why is no one in the media even asking these questions if Biden could be compromised by these things?

00:38:06.000 They're now admitting the laptop's real.

00:38:08.000 Two years later, again, we get our win.

00:38:11.000 The laptop, they admitted it was real when it was no longer of any harm or danger to them to admit it.

00:38:17.000 Correct. That's always how they play it.

00:38:18.000 But they're not asking the question of...

00:38:21.000 Are they compromised? Which is sort of amazing, because I mean, even as insane as the liberals are, as much control as they have over the mainstream media and the narrative, you would think they'd still be adverse to World War III with Russia.

00:38:36.000 You know, you would think, but again, I guess I keep getting surprised not every day.

00:38:39.000 What is the appropriate level of risk to take on for an event that would result in the death of billions of people, right, is the question.

00:38:47.000 You know, is it worth a 50% risk?

00:38:50.000 A 30% risk?

00:38:51.000 A 10% risk?

00:38:53.000 How about I'm just not willing to take that chance over a...

00:38:59.000 Right. A country like Ukraine.

00:39:01.000 Over a dispute between two countries that have had a disagreement about territorial boundaries for years and years and years and years.

00:39:10.000 And so you can agree it is a deeply tragic issue, it is a heartbreaking issue, but it does not obligate us to take steps that raise the possibility of a global nuclear conflagration.

00:39:22.000 And I'll also note that the United States, for years, The deep state has taken steps to try to antagonize that situation, to try to antagonize that conflict, because the truth is there are a lot of people in our government who want to have a showdown, a military showdown with Russia.

00:39:43.000 And you can see it.

00:39:44.000 You can see the people on Twitter and elsewhere who are positively excited about the war,

00:39:51.000 who are just overjoyed about it.

00:39:52.000 Who just, it gets them a high almost.

00:39:55.000 Yeah, it's the new religion of like the left and of the rhinos, really. 0.98

00:39:59.000 You know, that's why you saw the Ron DeSantis real flip because, you know, the Republican donor class

00:40:04.000 and the, you know, the establishment class over there, they're just as excited about the war

00:40:11.000 as like the radical left, has become like the party of warmongers,

00:40:16.000 Donald Trump, the guy that was going to start World War III, and I'm sure you dealt with plenty of this in your tenure for four years at the White House, but The guy that was going to start World War III, Donald Trump, is the only guy that was actually preventing it, it seems.

00:40:29.000 Yes. I mean, it's easy to forget.

00:40:30.000 The United States has been getting involved in new wars for decades now, from the Clinton administration, obviously the Bush administration, the Obama administration, right?

00:40:41.000 We all remember Libya. We all remember Syria. 0.62

00:40:43.000 And President Trump, people ask me, what is his greatest achievement?

00:40:47.000 And that's such a long answer, and there's so many, and I could go on for such a long time.

00:40:51.000 But I put at the top of my list, number one, a world at peace.

00:40:56.000 No new wars for four years, and a pathway to peace in the Middle East, and in Europe, and all across the world, even in the Korean Peninsula.

00:41:06.000 That is by far his greatest achievement.

00:41:07.000 And he was out of office for less than a year.

00:41:12.000 Before, not only did a new war start, but a new war started between two nuclear powers.

00:41:18.000 If that's not an argument for why President Trump needs to be back ASAP, I don't know what is.

00:41:25.000 Yeah, no, it's a good point.

00:41:28.000 And I just hope that people wake up to it because, again, so much of it's hidden, which is why it's so important for people to get, you know, listen to people like yourself, people who are there, who know, who understand, people like myself who are willing to say this stuff to go contrary to the establishment and to the talking points from both sides.

00:41:43.000 But one of the important fights I think you've been also in over at America First Legal was this case about Douglas Mackey.

00:41:50.000 He Many of you may have known him in 2015, 2016.

00:41:53.000 Sort of one of the original Twitter MAGA trolls.

00:41:57.000 He went by the name Ricky Vaughn on there, like the guy from Major League.

00:42:02.000 And this is a guy that's now been convicted And could go to prison for 10 years for a meme apparently misleading people about voting for Hillary Clinton.

00:42:14.000 Now, there's plenty of people on the left that did the exact same thing against Trump.

00:42:18.000 They don't even get charged, let alone convicted.

00:42:21.000 And I know that you launched a major investigation into sort of alleged tactics I'm concerned myself because I share a lot of memes.

00:42:44.000 But what the hell is going on in our country that that can even exist, that that isn't just a clear First Amendment thing, that this could happen and that, by the way, it could happen so much more egregiously on the other side and there's absolutely no consequence whatsoever.

00:43:01.000 Yeah, there's so much to say about this case.

00:43:03.000 As you mentioned, this is actually a pretty common meme.

00:43:07.000 There's a lot of videos you can find of people saying that people should text in their favorite candidate.

00:43:13.000 It's obviously a joke.

00:43:15.000 And frankly, even if it's not a joke, it's still protected by the First Amendment regardless. 0.98

00:43:20.000 By the way, if you're dumb enough to fall for it, maybe you shouldn't be voting anyway. 0.98

00:43:24.000 I'm just saying. I'm not about voter suppression, but give me a break. 0.99

00:43:27.000 Somebody went online and they said that there's a new law that says that your pets can vote.

00:43:34.000 So take your dog and cat to the polling station and have them vote.

00:43:36.000 We throw that person in jail?

00:43:38.000 I mean, the right to be sarcastic It's pretty much like enmeshed in the whole history of Western civilization.

00:43:47.000 Outlong sarcasm by conservatives or by non-left thinking people is 1984, as Orwellian as anything can possibly get, as one of these things where he becomes so desensitized.

00:44:01.000 That we all saw this happen, but so much society has just moved on.

00:44:05.000 Like, yeah, he went to jail. Okay, what are you going to do?

00:44:07.000 It's as brazen a violation of the First Amendment as I can possibly imagine.

00:44:12.000 So my organization, we are investigating every aspect of this that we can.

00:44:16.000 We don't have any results to share yet, but we are putting significant energies into trying to get the backstory We're good to go.

00:44:46.000 Where clearly there's a larger political agenda at play.

00:44:50.000 Clearly there's unseen hands that are moving these prosecutions.

00:44:55.000 And we need to see where those unseen hands are and who they are.

00:44:58.000 Because we now have the Department of Justice, as we talked about earlier, That is in the business of locking up political prisoners.

00:45:05.000 And if this was happening in a foreign country, our State Department would issue travel advisories.

00:45:10.000 Oh yeah, no, we'd be all for a regime change.

00:45:13.000 We'd be like in phase three of regime change right now.

00:45:16.000 But if it's happening at home, as long as it's happening by the Democrats, it's okay.

00:45:20.000 So I mean, expand on that a little bit.

00:45:21.000 And at the end, I want to make sure that people understand where they can go to support America First Legal and do that.

00:45:27.000 Because everyone always has like, how do we fight back?

00:45:30.000 Like, you know, a big part is banding together and being unafraid, but another part is supporting the organizations that are actually doing this kind of work.

00:45:36.000 So, you know, tell us about that.

00:45:38.000 But, like, you're talking about that, and the Biden administration is, you know, they're continuing their attacks on free speech, and now apparently they're just sort of bypassing parental rights and apparently monitoring Students with, like, gender identity issues in school and, like, tracking them now without parental consent.

00:45:56.000 I mean, this is another one that we've been talking about a lot on the show, where they're just trying to, you know, whether it's for the trans agenda, to what end, I don't know, but there's everything possible to destroy the framework of family, to cut out parental decisions, whether it be in education or, you know, in determining the sexuality of a minor. 0.58

00:46:17.000 You know, what's going on with this case?

00:46:19.000 Because, I mean, I think this is one that's definitely, you know...

00:46:22.000 Well, I have a number of lawsuits on parental rights, and you can go to aflegal.org, aflegal.org, and you can read about a lot of them.

00:46:30.000 So we have multiple lawsuits about the violation of parental rights, where you have a school that is coming in and gender transitioning a child or exposing a child to radical gender theory, We're good to go.

00:47:06.000 And also just figuring, right?

00:47:07.000 In other words, you can go online, you can see the videos, but a grown adult who never went through puberty does not look like a grown adult, and they can never get that back.

00:47:16.000 Like, once you miss puberty, it's over.

00:47:17.000 It's not like you get to do it again.

00:47:19.000 If you go from 11 to 18, no puberty, and then change your mind... 0.50

00:47:25.000 It's too late. You don't get a second puberty.

00:47:27.000 It's over. Some of these videos, I've been watching them because I try to get informed about some of these issues.

00:47:34.000 It's easy to jump on one side of a thing and shit all over it with memes, but it's another to actually understand the root cause of some of this.

00:47:41.000 When I see some of these videos, they're heartbreaking.

00:47:45.000 A child manipulated by some Freak show teacher decides to do something and then, you know, 10 years later when they inevitably, you know, the recidivism rate is what, like 93, 94% of people who regret it.

00:47:59.000 Like, we should have the ability to go after the doctors, the teachers, Personally, the parents, if this kid wakes up at 18 and is like, what the hell did I do to myself?

00:48:10.000 I'm permanently castrated.

00:48:12.000 I can't do this.

00:48:14.000 You know, I mean, how easy is it to manipulate a child, like a three-, four-year-old?

00:48:19.000 I mean, you promise them ice cream if they do this, and it feels like it's...

00:48:24.000 It's like the latest Hollywood trend. 0.90

00:48:26.000 You're not cool if you don't have a trans kid.

00:48:29.000 It's like a Lambo.

00:48:31.000 For a certain statement on the left, having a trans kid has become a status symbol.

00:48:35.000 Correct. Which is a very sick thing. 0.90

00:48:38.000 Do you remember during the Trump administration in 2020 how vilified President Trump was For trying to pursue alternative remedies to COVID, like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.

00:48:50.000 In other words, safe drugs.

00:48:52.000 Oh, I remember it well, Stephen.

00:48:54.000 Yes. That people have been taking for decades with minimal side effects, right?

00:48:59.000 And he was vilified.

00:49:01.000 He said, these drugs have never been approved to treat COVID. Okay, now you have the same medical establishment saying that drugs that were never created to change a child's gender, that never been studied for this, approved for this, any of it, must be given to these children, no matter what the consequences are.

00:49:21.000 Infertility, bone density, disfigurement, whatever.

00:49:25.000 Heart issues, doesn't matter.

00:49:27.000 And so, in fact, another lawsuit we have is we're suing the FDA because we filed the Freedom of Information Act request to get all the information about how they are pushing these drugs on our children, and they wouldn't provide it, so we suit them, and we'll see what comes of that.

00:49:40.000 My theory, though, about the why...

00:49:43.000 I think there's more than one thing.

00:49:45.000 But I think one of the big things is this.

00:49:47.000 It's about power and control.

00:49:50.000 And here's what I mean by that.

00:49:52.000 What could be a more dramatic example of how another person has power over you than getting you to recite something that you know is a lie over and over again Because you are terrified of what will happen if you don't.

00:50:07.000 So when you have a man show up in a room wearing a dress that everyone knows is a man, and they can say to you, you will say this is a woman.

00:50:15.000 You will say it's a she. 1.00

00:50:17.000 You will call he a her. 0.99

00:50:19.000 And you'll do it. And not you or I won't, but millions of people will at their workplaces, at their schools, in their political settings for fear.

00:50:28.000 That establishes a regime of control.

00:50:31.000 It establishes who runs the country, who are the rulers and who are the subjects.

00:50:37.000 We've got to the point where 85-90% of people can believe a thing but are scared to say it.

00:50:42.000 Then they can get away with literally anything at that point.

00:50:47.000 Yeah, and it feels like, you know, there's never an end to the—right?

00:50:51.000 You could agree with them on Tuesday, but by Wednesday, you need to be 100x where you were yesterday. 0.97

00:50:58.000 Or, you know, you're a racist, homophobe, misogynist, and deserve the same level of cancellation.

00:51:02.000 If you disagree with one aspect of their sort of never-ending and always-changing narrative— It's over. 0.78

00:51:14.000 Like, you get no credit for having even been supportive before, which is what's truly scary.

00:51:18.000 Like, it's always changing.

00:51:21.000 It's always going farther.

00:51:22.000 The second they sort of break through, you know, one aspect and, okay, fine, we'll let it go.

00:51:27.000 Just leave us alone. You know, if you're an adult, you know, and I'm this way.

00:51:30.000 Hey, if you're an adult and you want to chop your private parts off, like, just don't come back and bitching at me. 1.00

00:51:34.000 Like, do it. I don't care. 1.00

00:51:37.000 Like, it's not for me.

00:51:39.000 I don't care.

00:51:41.000 You start messing with our kids.

00:51:43.000 You start pushing, you know, men in women's sports. 1.00

00:51:46.000 You start taking away the opportunities from young ladies who've worked their ass off to be the best at their games. 0.99

00:51:52.000 Like, I got a serious fucking problem with that. 1.00

00:51:54.000 Like, if you want to be a 30-year-old dude and chop your dick off, like, hey, Have at it. 1.00

00:51:59.000 Again, don't come bitching to me. 1.00

00:52:01.000 Don't come complaining.

00:52:02.000 Don't ask the government to try to fix it.

00:52:05.000 That's on you.

00:52:07.000 You can be a big boy or a girl.

00:52:10.000 Don't ask me to pay for it either, 100%.

00:52:12.000 They're going after our kids now, and they're doing it with reckless abandon.

00:52:19.000 Yeah, and I would also say that this is why the accommodation strategy that Republicans have long advocated never works.

00:52:27.000 So if they have some crazy idea on a Monday, and you say, fine, fine, fine, I'll go along with it, in the interest of getting along, in the interest of goodwill, they'll never say, okay, great, now we're all happy.

00:52:40.000 Then it's a new rule Tuesday, a new rule Wednesday, because it's not about the rule.

00:52:45.000 Some people, some of them believe it. 0.99

00:52:47.000 The useful idiots believe it, certainly. 1.00

00:52:49.000 And there's loads of useful idiots. 1.00

00:52:51.000 But the people who are writing the rules, again, they don't care whether it's true or not. 1.00

00:52:55.000 They don't care whether they believe it or not.

00:52:57.000 It's about them controlling you.

00:52:59.000 And as the ones who are making the rules, then they get to be the ones who say, okay, fine.

00:53:04.000 Then we're going to have the ESG standards for the corporations.

00:53:07.000 And then we're going to be in charge of all the regulations that are agencies.

00:53:10.000 And then we're going to have to be in charge of all the charging decisions that DOJ. Once you make this your religion, then the priests of that religion have to be installed all throughout society to enforce it.

00:53:21.000 That's the whole point. It's about them getting to make decisions for you.

00:53:26.000 Yeah, no. And I guess, you know, while we're talking about just rules, what are some of the biggest rules that the Biden administration is just flat out violating?

00:53:37.000 Now, obviously, you know, the big one is last week, like, starting a war with Russia without congressional approval.

00:53:42.000 And, you know, but what are some of the other ones that we're seeing from the Biden administration that, you know, that are really on your radar at America First Legal and that you're looking to combat?

00:53:52.000 Well, I would argue that outside of starting an illegal war with a nuclear power, that the most egregious, consistent, and lawless violations of our rules and regulations is the open border.

00:54:08.000 And that is breathtakingly illegal.

00:54:13.000 So federal law requires that if you're here illegally, you have to be detained and deported.

00:54:18.000 That's very clear. These are laws that have been on the books for a long, long time.

00:54:21.000 The Trump administration policy was, if we catch you, we're going to hold you, and you're either going to go to Mexico, you're going to go to your home country, or you're going to go to a safe third country that's willing to take you.

00:54:33.000 But you're not going to get into our country. 1.00

00:54:35.000 That option, that door, is closed.

00:54:38.000 The Biden administration came in, they shut all those policies down, including, as we all know, remain in Mexico, but a lot of other ones that are less well-known, all equally important, and they replaced it with We're good to go.

00:55:08.000 And they're forcing taxpayers to subsidize all of this. 0.89

00:55:13.000 So you go to work, you pay your taxes, you pay your payroll taxes, you make ends meet and then your dollars are going to now subsidize the lifestyle, the transportation, the travel and the welfare for illegal immigrants. 0.97

00:55:26.000 But then, of course, they're going to have children.

00:55:28.000 Their children are going to be automatic citizens under the anchor baby policy.

00:55:32.000 So their children will then be able to vote in the country.

00:55:35.000 They'll be able to have chain migration.

00:55:37.000 They will be able to collect Medicare, Social Security, drain all of our entitlement funds, everything else.

00:55:42.000 So this is the most consistent violation of federal law that any president in American history has ever engaged in.

00:55:49.000 It's impeachable for Mayorkas. 1.00

00:55:51.000 It's impeachable for Biden.

00:55:53.000 And ultimately, it should be completely defunded by Congress.

00:55:57.000 Yeah, it's sort of interesting, because it's also not just about, you know, population, right?

00:56:02.000 I mean, that's what they want.

00:56:03.000 Rather than actually do something good for America, they want a population that'll vote for Democrats.

00:56:07.000 They put you on a government program.

00:56:08.000 That's why they let people in, you know, say, across the southern border, but not in from Cuba or Venezuela, because those people understand where we're going on the road to socialism.

00:56:18.000 And let's just say they've seen that show before and aren't into it.

00:56:22.000 But it also seems to be, you know, one of density, right?

00:56:26.000 If they can pack certain areas in time with every census, they just get more representation to the blue, you know, ultra-liberal areas of the country, and that's sort of how they take over as well.

00:56:37.000 Yeah, so one of the things that I think shocks people is when they discover that illegal aliens are counted in the census, which provides apportionment for members of Congress.

00:56:45.000 I think that stunts people to discover that that's the case.

00:56:49.000 And obviously that needs to end.

00:56:51.000 But I think that there's a couple of things going on there.

00:56:53.000 I think that one is obviously that you're packing the population in these certain areas.

00:56:59.000 But I also think that large amounts of unskilled immigration destabilize the middle class and make the left much more powerful. 0.94

00:57:09.000 Because we have a much larger population that are dependent on social services, that are dependent on public housing, that are dependent on food stamps.

00:57:15.000 And so when you completely overwhelm a community, With mass unskilled migration, it makes the Democrat machine more powerful.

00:57:24.000 So, you know, while we're talking sort of the border and those policies, let's talk about the drug cartels.

00:57:29.000 Obviously, you know, the left hates you for your immigration policies, for your advice to my father, you know, at the White House on all of these things.

00:57:38.000 I mean, but, you know, what about the cartels?

00:57:40.000 I mean, Why wouldn't they be designated as enemy combatants, given what's going on right now with the fentanyl crisis?

00:57:51.000 They're killing far more Americans than anything going on in Ukraine right now, and yet, I guess, apparently Russia's an enemy combatant, and we can fight a war against them, but the cartels that are making billions, killing our kids indiscriminately across the country, seem to get a total pass.

00:58:09.000 Yes. There's no foreign adversary in our lifetimes that has killed more Americans than the drug cartels.

00:58:21.000 And obviously it's time for them to be declared enemy combatants.

00:58:24.000 There isn't a law enforcement solution at this point in Mexico to the cartel problem.

00:58:30.000 They're on the payroll for the most part, I would think.

00:58:33.000 It doesn't mean that there aren't plenty fighting it, but it seems like the cartels are actively waging war with the Mexican military at times.

00:58:40.000 The police in Mexico can't fight the cartels.

00:58:44.000 And the cartels, of course, this is an important point.

00:58:46.000 They don't just have drugs in this country.

00:58:49.000 They have soldiers in this country.

00:58:51.000 They have bases of operation in this country.

00:58:54.000 There are transnational gangs in almost every American state That are significant criminal enterprises operating in our country, carrying out executions, carrying out hits, running these drug distribution networks on our soil.

00:59:11.000 All of them, all of them should be arrested by DOJ. But instead, of course, DOJ is too busy putting people in jail for memes.

00:59:20.000 And so this is the fundamental issue here is that the Department of Justice should be focused on these threats, but instead they're focused on conservatives.

00:59:30.000 Yeah, no, it's pretty scary.

00:59:32.000 When you just see the attacks on everything that seems, you know, decent about America, I love your opinion on sort of the Biden administration now, you know, the executive order that would prevent, you know, state and local, you know, governments from barring biological men from competing in women's sports. 0.76

00:59:48.000 You know, Title IX seemed like a really big thing at the time.

00:59:50.000 Women fought for it. 1.00

00:59:52.000 The feminists fought for it. 1.00

00:59:54.000 And it seems to be like Well, it's okay if you're a dude and you become a chick. 0.60

00:59:58.000 Maybe that'll be good for women's sports or something like that. 1.00

01:00:01.000 But the government getting involved in this level, talk a little bit about that, because I imagine it's going to be one of the other things you'll end up having to focus on as it continues to get more and more ridiculous.

01:00:10.000 We're already in contact with states to sue over this very thing.

01:00:17.000 This is another example of the Biden administration's so-called equity agenda.

01:00:21.000 You asked what violates federal law, but violating federal law.

01:00:24.000 So obviously, racial discrimination is illegal and sexual discrimination is illegal.

01:00:28.000 The Biden administration has issued a number of policies that discriminate on the basis of race, and we've sued over those and we've won.

01:00:34.000 Here they're discriminating on the basis of sex.

01:00:37.000 So a woman will be disadvantaged solely for the fact that she's a woman by allowing men 1.00

01:00:43.000 into the sport in a way that of course wouldn't disadvantage male athletes because you don't

01:00:48.000 see this very often that I'm aware of but yeah.

01:00:51.000 I'm pretty sure it only goes one way.

01:00:53.000 There's probably one exception that proves the rule to the left, and they'll rub that down your face.

01:00:59.000 Meanwhile, there's no one breaking men's records.

01:01:03.000 There's no one taking scholarships for the most part.

01:01:07.000 It really only goes one way.

01:01:10.000 Exactly, and that's why it's inherently discriminatory against women and against female athletes, and so is 0.93

01:01:16.000 illegal.

01:01:17.000 And so this will be yet one other area where we're going to have to pursue litigation, probably would work with states

01:01:24.000 in this case to do so, as states administer these policies at their universities,

01:01:29.000 and hopefully it'll be successful.

01:01:31.000 But there's a whole equity agenda in which, whether it's the trans ideology or critical race theory, is all about

01:01:42.000 violating Americans' right to equality under the law.

01:01:46.000 So when you hear the word equity, equity equals bigotry.

01:01:49.000 Equity is discrimination. 0.65

01:01:51.000 Equity is the government saying, instead of giving you equal opportunity and equal treatment, we are going to decide who wins and who loses, who succeeds and who fails, who's eligible and who's eligible, because you're either part of a favored group or you're part of a disfavored group.

01:02:05.000 And now we've lived long enough that women... 1.00

01:02:08.000 To the Democratic Party and to the left are now a disfavored group.

01:02:12.000 And women are being erased. 1.00

01:02:14.000 Women are so yesterday. 1.00

01:02:15.000 Women are so like 10 years ago, right? 1.00

01:02:18.000 The left has no use for women anymore. 1.00

01:02:20.000 Either you're a man who is identifying as a woman or you're of no value to anybody. 1.00

01:02:25.000 That's the new hierarchy for the left.

01:02:27.000 It really is. I mean, Dylan Mulvaney must be the most sponsored human being in the history of sponsorships, and it's for, like, women's products.

01:02:35.000 And I just don't understand.

01:02:37.000 You know, it makes no sense, but it's even more scary.

01:02:41.000 And again, perhaps we saw a little bit of this in COVID. You know, people have become sheep.

01:02:47.000 You know, they're afraid to be like, like, that's bullshit. 1.00

01:02:51.000 Like, what's going on here? 0.99

01:02:53.000 No one's willing to actually go out there and say that.

01:02:57.000 Maybe that's exactly why you needed Trump.

01:02:59.000 Like, someone who just doesn't care about, you know, the feelings of, you know, a very tiny minority group of people that seem to be the most privileged class in America.

01:03:09.000 I mean, today, you know, especially, you don't hear much about sort of trans women, but, you know, if you're a guy that, I guess, I don't even know which way it goes, but if you're a Male that becomes a woman, you get a lot of power.

01:03:23.000 If you're a woman that becomes a male, it's like... 0.88

01:03:25.000 I know of, I guess, Ellen Page.

01:03:29.000 That's the one that I'm aware of that goes that way.

01:03:31.000 And yet, the other way, it's totally big.

01:03:34.000 But you need someone to be like, what about women? 1.00

01:03:38.000 I'm shocked the feminists aren't all over this one because they'd be all over anything else. 1.00

01:03:42.000 And I'm also shocked that in 2023, I'm fighting...

01:03:46.000 For, like, feminists. 1.00

01:03:47.000 Like, I'm leading a charge on the stuff that should matter to them or would have historically until, you know, people lost their minds in 2015 or 16.

01:03:58.000 Yeah, and many feminists and just women in general are afraid to speak up to the erasure of their identity. 1.00

01:04:05.000 And you have, I mean, one of the things that I saw was that Dylan Mulvaney appeared to have some sort of sponsorship for tampons.

01:04:15.000 I mean, because why not, Stephen?

01:04:18.000 Why not? You're obviously racist. 0.97

01:04:20.000 But tampons serve a very specific purpose, right? 0.94

01:04:24.000 They're not like a purse or something, right?

01:04:26.000 I mean, they have a very specific biological purpose.

01:04:29.000 So imagine how insulting it is to women, how degrading it is to women. 1.00

01:04:34.000 To have a man who couldn't possibly, medically, scientifically, have any need for this product to be its brand ambassador. 0.63

01:04:42.000 It makes a joke out of womanhood. 1.00

01:04:47.000 I'm married now.

01:04:49.000 I have kids.

01:04:51.000 I see the extraordinary things that women have to go through to ultimately make a family.

01:05:00.000 Again, we'll get graphic about it.

01:05:02.000 it we all can understand. And so when you have men pretending to be women, it belittles that

01:05:08.000 sacrifice, it belittles that struggle, it belittles the whole experience of being a woman, and you have

01:05:13.000 the left celebrating this and championing this. And so again, this is an area where we are now

01:05:18.000 the champion of women in America, women's rights, and the rights also, and very importantly,

01:05:23.000 of little girls everywhere to have their own sports leagues, their own bathrooms, 1.00

01:05:29.000 their own private spaces, and have no creepy dudes anywhere.

01:05:33.000 Anywhere that they congregate in privacy.

01:05:37.000 Yeah, I mean, it does feel like, you know, again, when you look at the stories about that,

01:05:42.000 oh, they're never gonna do something in a bathroom, and yet there seems like every week,

01:05:46.000 and this is after big techs covering it up and big social cover it up,

01:05:51.000 it feels like there's an awful lot of creepy dudes that are willing to become female and do weird stuff.

01:05:58.000 Again, one of those things that seems to only go one way in that movement, but to pretend 0.95

01:06:03.000 that that's not a real thing is ludicrous.

01:06:06.000 And if you're fighting for this and you're a parent of a young girl, it's mind-boggling to 0.68

01:06:11.000 me.

01:06:11.000 I mean, for me, as the father of two young girls, you know, and one that's, you know, an outstanding athlete,

01:06:17.000 like, it's the lunacy.

01:06:20.000 You know, the soccer moms that spend all their time going to these games and, you know, 1.00

01:06:24.000 some guy is an average male athlete.

01:06:26.000 He has no chance at a scholarship, goes on and becomes a national champion woman and, like, you know, gets a full ride at the university of their choice, is heralded as a, you know, brave hero.

01:06:36.000 I'm like, you're not brave. Like, you didn't beat anyone that you're supposed to be beating.

01:06:39.000 Like, there's nothing brave about it.

01:06:41.000 It's despicable. And yet, again, I think the trans... 1.00

01:06:45.000 You know, movement, I think people, I mean, they're the most privileged class in society today.

01:06:50.000 And I say this as a white man who's the son of a billionaire, and it ain't even close as far as I'm concerned.

01:06:56.000 No, it is amazing how quickly they have become and come to occupy the most privileged place in society.

01:07:03.000 And again, just the mere fact of, in the case of Dylan Mulvaney, of a male Quote, changing, of course, which you can't actually do, his identity to a female showered him with fame, money, riches, access, and things, where if he was just a white guy running around live, right?

01:07:23.000 I mean, nothing special coming his way, right?

01:07:26.000 Yeah. If he was just a gay white guy, there'd be nothing going on, there'd be no scholarship, there'd be no sponsorship, there'd be no money, there'd be no, you know, Drew Barrymore or whoever bowing to him like he's some great hero, like... 0.86

01:07:38.000 I don't understand it, man. 0.95

01:07:40.000 I feel like I'm being punked.

01:07:41.000 I'm just the star of the Truman Show, and they're screwing with me every day.

01:07:46.000 I can come to no other conclusion, and yet...

01:07:48.000 We all feel like that, because it gets crazier and crazier and crazier every single day.

01:07:54.000 But the serious side of this is that they're getting away with it, right?

01:08:00.000 And that's what we have to come to terms with.

01:08:04.000 To go to our point that we began with.

01:08:06.000 So if you're online, it feels like, oh man, people are seeing you through this.

01:08:11.000 It's like all falling apart.

01:08:13.000 Everyone knows it's a joke.

01:08:15.000 Everyone knows it's crazy. But if you actually look at the world, the reality is Biden's getting away with it.

01:08:22.000 Yeah. Thinking people need to start being serious.

01:08:42.000 And I know it's not easy. Some things are easier than others.

01:08:44.000 About putting your money with people who respect you, or at least don't hate you.

01:08:50.000 About creating and building institutions that are going to support your values.

01:08:55.000 And where you can, taking over an institution.

01:08:57.000 So take over your PTA. In other words, run your own candidate.

01:09:00.000 100%. Run your own candidates.

01:09:03.000 You've got to get in the game.

01:09:04.000 And that's why I created my own legal nonprofit.

01:09:07.000 Because I knew that...

01:09:08.000 If you just relied on big law to do it, it was never going to happen.

01:09:14.000 Okay, so talk about that, because I think Republicans are actually winning some of the culture war right now with the regular people.

01:09:21.000 I don't believe that the average Democrat across the country thinks the three-year-old should mutilate their body for gender affirmation.

01:09:30.000 I don't believe that, and yet our leaders on the Democrat side, that's a hill to die on for them.

01:09:37.000 So where do you think Republicans are winning, and where...

01:09:41.000 Where is there room for improvement?

01:09:43.000 What do we need to be working on to actually win and to change some of that mindset?

01:09:48.000 Yeah, so it's a great question.

01:09:51.000 So one example of a really big win recently that I think provides a roadmap, a big conservative victory recently, was when the House voted to repeal the D.C. pro-crime law, right?

01:10:04.000 So for those of you who don't remember, the city council in D.C. passed a law that massively reduced sentences for some of those violent and dangerous offenders.

01:10:12.000 And under the Constitution, the House has oversight, obviously, over the capital city, because it's a federal city.

01:10:20.000 It belongs to everybody. And that vote passed.

01:10:24.000 And Biden was forced to relent because it was such an overwhelmingly popular issue and to sign it.

01:10:31.000 And so I think what my advice would be to conservatives in the House on the legislative front would be take these targeted, isolated winning issues and just beat the living hell out of them.

01:10:42.000 In other words, just bang the drum, shout for the mountaintops, and just vote on one winning issue after another and make it simple.

01:10:49.000 In other words, don't make it a 100-page bill or a 500-page bill.

01:10:52.000 Take one issue at a time.

01:10:54.000 So, like, on Monday, for example, vote to say that no men and women sports anywhere in America.

01:10:59.000 On Tuesday, vote to say no federal funding for chemically castrating children, right?

01:11:06.000 On Wednesday, vote to say that the...

01:11:11.000 No airline can choose its pilots based on skin color.

01:11:15.000 Take one issue at a time every single day and focus the whole attention of the country on it.

01:11:24.000 Then I would use the committee's We're good to go.

01:11:44.000 To see how they colluded on shutting down schools and on masking our kids, right?

01:11:48.000 And I would then want to say, look at how Google is throttling search results to undermine conservatives, right?

01:11:56.000 And so basically take one discrete issue at a time Issue a subpoena, pursue it, hold the hearing, publicize it.

01:12:03.000 I think that kind of strategy, sort of one digestible winning issue at a time is the best way to go.

01:12:10.000 We tend, as conservatives, to fall in love with overly complicated things.

01:12:16.000 So we'll work on like a 1,000-page budget plan.

01:12:19.000 Like, here's our budget.

01:12:20.000 It is 1,000 pages.

01:12:23.000 Now please attack us.

01:12:24.000 This is our 10-year plan to completely fix the country, and every single thing in the entire country is all in this one document.

01:12:34.000 That's too complicated.

01:12:36.000 Yeah, or we chase a thousand little things with little sound bites without any action after.

01:12:42.000 Pick five big ones, go after them, and see them through, because the other side's going to slow play it.

01:12:46.000 Again, they're going to have the help of tech.

01:12:48.000 They're going to have the help of the media, who's going to vilify anyone who goes after the things that, again, are so obvious to so many people.

01:12:55.000 They can just run out the clock, and you'll never really get an answer to it.

01:12:58.000 So I agree 100% on that.

01:13:00.000 We've got to see them through, and we can't let them play the games.

01:13:04.000 I think we also have to use the power of the purse.

01:13:06.000 I don't think with a four-seat majority in the House that we're going to be passing much legislation, but we can act as a powerful blocker because of the money, and that is everything in D.C. That's a very important point.

01:13:18.000 The power of the purse, our founders intended to be the most important power.

01:13:22.000 The government doesn't do anything until Congress appropriates the money for it.

01:13:27.000 And so we need to switch the way people think about this.

01:13:29.000 So normally what people think about it is government's on autopilot and we just automatically refund everything.

01:13:35.000 We need to go back to saying, no, you justify to us why we should spend money on your thing.

01:13:42.000 You want to release illegal aliens? 0.96

01:13:44.000 You justify to us why we should spend one penny on that.

01:13:47.000 You want to change our kids' genders? 1.00

01:13:49.000 You justify to us why we should spend one penny on that.

01:13:51.000 So the House's position should be we will not spend a penny On anything that cannot be justified.

01:13:59.000 So we need to change the way we think about it.

01:14:01.000 It's not us clawing back.

01:14:03.000 The money runs out every year.

01:14:05.000 It's us deciding what we spend money on in the first place.

01:14:08.000 What does the Republican Party need to do in terms of ground game?

01:14:12.000 You know, the Democrats have, you know, truly weaponized, you know, the ballot harvesting system and all of these.

01:14:19.000 You know, it changes the dynamic of an election.

01:14:22.000 You know, their election day lasts two months and they're going there knocking door to door and they're doing whatever they can while, you know, while we sit there, you know, and complain about having, you know, paper ballots and voter ID and all of this while, you know, while they're laughing and collecting ballots for weeks at a time.

01:14:36.000 In your mind, what are the most powerful steps we can do to sort of level that playing field?

01:14:40.000 Because again, I actually think we're winning on a lot of issues with regular people.

01:14:44.000 But I think, you know, that you can go door to door in Philadelphia and get people, collect a ballot and vote for someone they probably wouldn't be able to pick out of a lineup.

01:14:53.000 And it doesn't matter because, you know, that's an election.

01:14:56.000 That's such an important point.

01:14:58.000 Our elections have changed in ways that we still haven't wrestled with or understand.

01:15:03.000 So, obviously, you have massive fraud and there's no voter ID and there's no identity verification or residence verification or domicility or any of that stuff.

01:15:15.000 And we can have that for two hours.

01:15:17.000 But I want to talk about another facet of this that you mentioned, which is the idea that people who are extremely low propensity voters can have their ballots harvested.

01:15:27.000 So these are people, as you mentioned, they don't know who's running, have not watched a single ad, have not looked at a single mailer, have not heard from a single candidate.

01:15:35.000 They don't even know who's in the race.

01:15:37.000 But the left can send a person to their house Every day for two weeks until they get a ballot and then they take the ballot from them and they drop it off in a dropbox.

01:15:48.000 So while we're persuading people, we're changing people's minds.

01:15:52.000 For every one mind that we change, and you know how much effort it takes to change a mind?

01:15:56.000 For every one mind they change, don't just go harvest 10 ballots.

01:15:59.000 So for us, it's pretty simple.

01:16:01.000 It's binary. Where you can fix the law, fix it. 0.95

01:16:06.000 Where you can't, Where either you don't have the legislature or the governor's office or the right balance of members or whatever it is, where you can't change the law, you have to beat them at their game.

01:16:18.000 There's no other option.

01:16:19.000 There's just no other option.

01:16:22.000 So that means putting drop boxes in every church and VFW hall and everywhere the conservatives congregate.

01:16:30.000 Then you have no choice but to do it.

01:16:32.000 And that means going to every nursing home in America and individually meeting with every single senior citizen and not leaving until you have their ballot, and that's what you have to do.

01:16:42.000 Because if we're relying entirely on Election Day and they've got two months, then you're opening yourselves up to what happened in Arizona.

01:16:49.000 Well, look, sorry, the Election Day machines don't work.

01:16:51.000 Sorry, can't vote. Just kidding.

01:16:54.000 Come back next term.

01:16:56.000 Next try. Try again in six years.

01:16:58.000 Yeah, no, it's crazy.

01:17:00.000 Listen, I think we all love voter ID with paper ballots and same-day voting, but until you actually have the power to do that, you've got to play the game on their terms, and they've set those terms.

01:17:14.000 We can bitch about it all we want, but we're not doing ourselves any favors by just sitting it out while they're laughing their asses off and winning elections that we should, frankly, be winning based on If you have a candidate who's ahead five, six points in the poll, and they can still win, again, just by digging deeper into the pool of completely non-engaged voters, where they will go to their house, they will say, go find that ballot, check that box, hand it to me, I'll do the rest.

01:17:42.000 And so that is how many elections are now being decided.

01:17:45.000 So Stephen, you were in the White House as, you know, one of my father's closest advisors.

01:17:50.000 You wrote speeches for him.

01:17:53.000 What are some of the most memorable sort of Trumpian moments of your tenure, four years with my father in the White House?

01:18:02.000 That's such a great question.

01:18:03.000 Well, a lot of my favorite memories have to do with the big showdown we had with Mexico over immigration policy, where this is when we were working on Remain in Mexico, and he huddled a bunch of advisors in the presidential dining room.

01:18:21.000 So you have the Oval Office, and then you have a little pass-through area that leads into a small little dining room.

01:18:29.000 And the president would oftentimes, when he was really thinking about something, he would bring people into the dining room for a very close-hold conversation.

01:18:37.000 And he was tired of how long it was taking Mexico to agree to the terms to remain in Mexico.

01:18:42.000 This is a very historic thing. I mean, Mexico, their starting position, to be clear, was, you've got to be kidding me.

01:18:48.000 You're going to send us your illegal aliens? 0.98

01:18:50.000 Not just from our country, but from all the other countries?

01:18:53.000 Like, their opening position was, this will literally never happen.

01:18:57.000 Like, this is never going to happen.

01:19:00.000 And so we had worked him and worked him and worked him, but he still was going too slow for his desires.

01:19:06.000 And he had enough. So he calls all in and he said...

01:19:10.000 We are going to put out a statement right now on Twitter saying that either we get what we want from Mexico or it's going to be a 15% tariff across the board.

01:19:20.000 I think it was 15. It might have been 10.

01:19:21.000 But a massive tariff across the board on every single product coming in from Mexico.

01:19:26.000 And he said, if we do this, he's announcing it, right?

01:19:29.000 It's going to send their economy into panic, send their leaders into panic.

01:19:32.000 And if we actually implement this, the peso is going to crash and they're going to be completely screwed.

01:19:37.000 And, you know, of course, as is often the case, there were advisors.

01:19:40.000 I won't say any names. Good people.

01:19:43.000 You can't do that.

01:19:44.000 It's not very nice.

01:19:46.000 They were like, a huge problem is going to be a diplomatic crisis.

01:19:50.000 It's not the way things work.

01:19:52.000 You know, that kind of thing. Right. And he overruled everybody.

01:19:55.000 He said, I've had it.

01:19:56.000 We're doing it. This is our position.

01:19:58.000 It's happening. And we put out the tweet, and then I believe it was the foreign minister of Mexico who called his counterpart in our country.

01:20:07.000 Within like an hour, we were back at the table.

01:20:09.000 We had the deal by the end of the day, and then we had a remain in Mexico in place the day after.

01:20:15.000 And that changed the whole course of legal immigration in this country because now we had a situation where nobody had to be released into the United States under any condition or circumstance.

01:20:24.000 And that was a historic event and it was a great example of President Trump not following the playbook of the diplomats.

01:20:31.000 Not following the playbook of the State Department, not following the playbook of the so-called smart set, but trusting his instincts as a businessman, trusting his instincts as a leader, and just making a gut call that was 100% right and a carry with a huge risk.

01:20:46.000 Because if it backfired, we have no deal.

01:20:49.000 We have a threat that is going to create massive economic instability, and he might have to pull down the threat.

01:20:54.000 Like, who knows, right? He put his reputation on the line for a call he knew was right, and it paid off, and we won.

01:21:03.000 Yeah, I mean, he did that on so many...

01:21:04.000 Were you there when he did something perhaps even more aggressive than that?

01:21:09.000 I guess the leader of the Taliban was over there at Camp David, and he just showed him an aerial satellite image of his house, be like...

01:21:17.000 How do you like the picture of the house?

01:21:19.000 And he was like, why are you showing these?

01:21:20.000 Oh, no worries. Let's make sure nothing happens to American troops ever again.

01:21:24.000 And it didn't while we were in power.

01:21:27.000 It's sort of amazing how that works, right?

01:21:29.000 Yes. No, I wasn't at that meeting, but I've heard that story.

01:21:34.000 And it's a great example of how he is so much smarter than all the people who think they're smart.

01:21:43.000 He kept our troops from being killed.

01:21:45.000 Not one soldier was killed after he made the deal with the Taliban.

01:21:52.000 Not one soldier was killed.

01:21:53.000 No letters had to be written home.

01:21:55.000 No parent had to visit a gravestone every single year and had to have an empty table,

01:22:01.000 empty chair at the table every single holiday because he understood how to do it.

01:22:06.000 He understood what real strength looks like and how to create a peaceful world.

01:22:10.000 And again, now under Biden, we had 13 people needlessly die,

01:22:15.000 heroes needlessly die in Afghanistan, an unimaginable tragedy.

01:22:20.000 And we have Iran marching towards a nuclear bomb.

01:22:24.000 We have Israel and Palestine, again, drenched in Palestinian terror. 1.00

01:22:30.000 And we have the whole world unraveling.

01:22:32.000 North Korea is back to firing all kinds of missiles and rockets and everything else.

01:22:38.000 It's all because they put President Biden into the White House.

01:22:44.000 That's all happening for that reason.

01:22:47.000 And we're living through it now.

01:22:48.000 Yeah, and who could have thought how quickly, right?

01:22:50.000 You could go from that position of power on a world stage to a position where, you know, our enemies are laughing

01:22:56.000 and our allies are questioning, well, pretty much everything because who wouldn't?

01:23:01.000 It took just a matter of months, weeks even, for everything to start unraveling.

01:23:05.000 And people didn't realize, and it's horrible they had to learn the lesson this way, but they didn't realize until he left how much he was holding everything together.

01:23:17.000 How much he was holding Europe together.

01:23:19.000 How much he was holding the Korean Peninsula together.

01:23:22.000 How much he was holding the whole Middle East together.

01:23:25.000 And then once he left, right, then everything just started unraveling and falling apart.

01:23:30.000 And again, all the so-called smart people, all the so-called geniuses who think they're so gifted, right?

01:23:36.000 Just one embarrassment after another.

01:23:38.000 These people can't even keep trains on the train tracks. 0.89

01:23:42.000 Yeah, no, it's scary.

01:23:44.000 But Stephen, it's good to see a guy like you out there fighting.

01:23:49.000 And guys, make sure you go check out what Stephen's doing over at America First Legal.

01:23:55.000 Make sure you pass this along to your friends so they can see about it and learn about it.

01:23:59.000 Make sure you like it. So that it stays relevant in search.

01:24:03.000 You know, we got to be in this game together.

01:24:04.000 We got to be unafraid. Stephen, thank you so much for that.

01:24:07.000 Just let everyone know where they can find you, where they can find America First Legal, where they can look to support it, because I think, again, that's so critical.

01:24:14.000 Thank you so much. Yes, go to aflegal.org, aflegal.org.
