Triggered - Donald Trump Jr - The Left’s Politics of Personal Destruction: Peter Navarro Reports to Prison Tomorrow | TRIGGERED Ep.120

00:00:00.000 Hey guys and welcome to another huge episode of Triggered.

00:00:08.000 Today's episode is going to be a big one, and it's likely, honestly, one of the more important interviews we've done, possibly ever.

00:00:17.000 Today we're joined by former Trump trade advisor, China expert, and America's first warrior, Peter Navarro.

00:00:25.000 Peter is actually going to prison tomorrow, tomorrow.

00:00:31.000 He was sentenced to five months behind bars, all because he didn't go along with the Democrats' sham January 6th committee, which we now know for certain had nothing to do with the truth.

00:00:45.000 It had nothing to do with reality.

00:00:46.000 It had nothing to do with an insurrection or the creation of a narrative, which it had everything to do with that, I guess, and everything to do with smearing the America First movement, pushing more baseless prosecutions Laundering more lies through the media, doing the bidding of the deep state and the Democrat Party.

00:01:07.000 We've seen that. There's a reason the exculpatory evidence and videos would not be released.

00:01:13.000 There's a reason the FBI is shockingly not at all interested in multiple bombs found outside of the DNC and the RNC. There's a reason the FBI director didn't want the videos out because too many of his people were actually in the crowd, seemingly doing nothing.

00:01:29.000 Probably inciting a quote-unquote insurrection, not actually doing anything to stop it.

00:01:35.000 It's almost as if they had a plan and this was by design.

00:01:40.000 Peter stood up on principle.

00:01:42.000 By not complying with the committee subpoena, And its historic legal fight is not yet over.

00:01:51.000 Peter is also the author of the forthcoming book, The New MAGA Deal, the unofficial deplorable guide to Donald Trump's 2024 platform.

00:02:01.000 And you can pre-order a copy at 45books.com.

00:02:05.000 Peter goes through all of the detail.

00:02:07.000 He goes through some of the great MAGA patriots who were in the cabinet, the few that weren't snakes, people who are likely going to be major contenders for serious cabinet-level positions in my father's second term, etc.

00:02:19.000 So there's so much...

00:02:21.000 That we have to get into with Peter.

00:02:24.000 But listen to the man.

00:02:26.000 Understand what he did.

00:02:28.000 His crime was not simply not complying with the January 6th committee.

00:02:33.000 It's also that he was the guy, the architect, along with my father, of the incredible position, the strong stance against China, putting America first, not letting them shake us down like they do each and every time. 0.95

00:02:49.000 And between tariffs and other vehicles, it was working.

00:02:53.000 It was working.

00:02:54.000 And honestly, in Washington, D.C., that's a cardinal sin.

00:02:59.000 You can't take on China, because as we talked with Peter Schweitzer two weeks ago, seems far too many of our politicians are on the payroll.

00:03:07.000 So this is going to be a really interesting conversation with Peter Navarro.

00:03:11.000 He's a friend. Legitimately can't believe that this is happening to him.

00:03:16.000 Um... But I feel he's going to come out of it stronger because I think the rest of the country now finally sees just how far we have fallen.

00:03:26.000 Just how much we're acting like the dictators.

00:03:31.000 We complain about other countries, just how much of a banana republic we've actually become.

00:03:36.000 So this is going to be a really interesting conversation.

00:03:46.000 Okay, this is the stuff the mainstream media won't talk about, right?

00:03:49.000 They're too busy calling you fascists while simultaneously literally jailing We're good to go.

00:04:11.000 It's probably not us, folks.

00:04:13.000 It's definitely the Democrats, the Joe Biden regime, and the sociopaths in the deep state.

00:08:27.000 America First Warrior and author of the new book, The New MAGA Deal.

00:08:32.000 Peter Navarro. Peter, good to have you here, buddy.

00:08:36.000 Under pretty bad circumstances, honestly.

00:08:39.000 My brother Don Jr., I can't thank you enough for publishing this new MAGA deal.

00:08:45.000 It's... It's a book.

00:08:47.000 It's been a labor of love.

00:08:49.000 I think it's the most important book for the campaign 2024 to get your dad back in the White House where he belongs.

00:08:59.000 And I spent about a year on it.

00:09:02.000 There's about 10 other contributors, all of whom served in the Trump White House, in the Trump administration.

00:09:12.000 And what inspired it Don, I call it the red wedding speech that friggin' senile Joe Biden gave on the eve of the 2022 congressional races.

00:09:27.000 Where he went like full four-letter word on MAGA, right?

00:09:32.000 And it's like, no, no, no, no, no.

00:09:34.000 MAGA is the most sensible path in the world from a policy standpoint to peace, prosperity, and security, which is what we had during your father's administration.

00:09:50.000 It was the most incredible four years of peace, prosperity, and security this country has

00:09:56.000 had in this and the last century.

00:10:00.000 And so what I wanted to do was help the deplorables out there, the MAGA believers, understand

00:10:08.000 exactly, exactly what's going to happen in a new Trump administration to bring back that

00:10:16.000 world of peace, prosperity, and security.

00:10:21.000 And it's going to be helpful not just for the Trump voters to understand what's at stake,

00:10:29.000 but also to go out and effectively proselytize.

00:10:33.000 And I'm asking people to do this.

00:10:35.000 It's like, hey, if you don't support Donald Trump and you think MAGA folks are extremists, read this book.

00:10:43.000 And here's what this book's about.

00:10:45.000 It's about common sense policies on the economy, on security, on culture, on politics. 0.94

00:10:53.000 And newmagadeal.com is where you can get it and You're the man, Don, having that publishing arm, which allows folks like me to be able to speak to the world when much of the publishing industry right now is woke, canceled culture, just scum as far as I'm concerned.

00:11:17.000 Yeah, not a lot of people would actually put this book out. 0.99

00:11:20.000 I've dealt with this with a bunch of guys, congressmen, not people that are alt-right, or everyone's alt-right, I guess, that doesn't go along with Joe Biden and his idiocy. 0.88

00:11:30.000 But yeah, that's what's shocking is, I mean, you ran trade for the United States. 0.57

00:11:35.000 You guys actually were the only people that actually did that well in at least recent history.

00:11:41.000 You held China accountable. 0.96

00:11:43.000 Yes. We're good to go.

00:12:06.000 I know you probably don't do this much on the show, but I gotta give the highest praise to Sergio Gore.

00:12:13.000 He's the guy who runs the publishing firm day to day for you, Don.

00:12:22.000 I know you guys work really closely together.

00:12:25.000 And he is like, I wrote this White House memoir called In Trump Time, because when I was in the White House, it was like, get this done as quickly as possible.

00:12:35.000 And Sergio Gore has done just a beautiful job moving this.

00:12:39.000 We're going to, you can order it on newbankadeal.com now.

00:12:44.000 It's going to be out. Yeah, we have it up at 45books.com as well.

00:12:47.000 So, you know. Yes, and it's going to be out, though, importantly, right at the convention, the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.

00:12:56.000 It's going to be coming out. You can get it in advance as a gift for your own copy.

00:13:02.000 And what we hope is that this book, from the time it comes out all the way to Election Day, will capture the imagination of voters who, frankly, look, it's not just that Winnie Publishing is the only place, really, one of the few places you can get books that speak in our voice.

00:13:28.000 It's also that the mainstream legacy media doesn't explain realistically what Trump policies are.

00:13:39.000 Everything is through the reality distortion field.

00:13:44.000 Take border security, for example.

00:13:48.000 It's like every major country in the world I remember back during the Trump administration trying to deal with the porous open border and watched your dad do it literally overnight with the threat of tariffs.

00:14:13.000 That's a whole other tale I can tell you.

00:14:15.000 But it just makes sense to have secure borders where you don't allow an unrestricted flow of uneducated illegals into our job markets to drive down the wages and take away jobs from blue-collar Americans. 0.63

00:14:34.000 You don't want Chinese communist military-age We're good to go. 0.91

00:14:59.000 And his policies, it's like, there's just, there's no, it's like, come on now.

00:15:04.000 And look, we know why they're doing it.

00:15:06.000 They want to stack the red states with voters and take over this country and make all of us slaves to their woke ideology.

00:15:16.000 And we're having none of it.

00:15:18.000 So... This new mega deal book is all about why the struggle we're going through and why this election is literally the most important one in the last hundred years.

00:15:30.000 I mean, it literally is the most important election.

00:15:33.000 Because if we don't take the White House and Congress back... 0.99

00:15:39.000 From these woke fools, there's not a lot of time left to turn their stuff around. 0.99

00:15:45.000 There really isn't. Listen, I don't know that I want the presidency without the House and without the Senate, right? 0.99

00:15:50.000 Because it'll just be never-ending impeachments.

00:15:53.000 I'll get to do another 50 hours of congressional testimony for treason or whatever else they make up, like Adam Schiff made up last time.

00:16:00.000 But, you know, I think what people watching, I think, Peter, need to understand, like, you are literally reporting to prison tomorrow for five months, and yet you're here and you're talking about MAGA principles for the next term.

00:16:18.000 I mean, just so people understand, like, what kind of warrior you actually are, how important...

00:16:24.000 Like, it's not like it's soundbite stuff.

00:16:26.000 You're actually not...

00:16:28.000 Nearly as concerned about the political persecution of their enemies based on lies, based on this, but literally already taking proactive steps. 0.97

00:16:38.000 I mean, I wish, honestly, I wish every conservative had your balls, but more importantly, your heart. 0.96

00:16:46.000 Like, You're going to prison for five months starting tomorrow. 0.98

00:16:49.000 You're here talking about manga principles for the next term and how to save our country.

00:16:55.000 I think everyone watching has to understand that.

00:16:58.000 Honestly, that's a lesson in patriotism right there.

00:17:03.000 I mean... It's amazing to me.

00:17:06.000 It truly is.

00:17:08.000 Man, I wish we had a billion of you.

00:17:10.000 Not the people that we have in Washington, including the vast majority of those supposedly on our side.

00:17:18.000 But... That's been disheartening how many Republicans in the House have not seized the opportunity they got in 2022.

00:17:31.000 But let me just explain to your viewers and listeners what's at stake here.

00:17:38.000 And the broad stroke here is, look, Men and women of America throughout our history have shed blood, lost their lives for the defense of this country, defense of what we stand for, defense of our values, defense of the Constitution.

00:17:58.000 And for me, it's a much smaller sacrifice to be willing to go to prison, as I now have been ordered to do, To defend what is really one of the most important principles of the Constitution, which is the constitutional separation of powers.

00:18:19.000 My hope and my mission here is that U.S. versus Peter Navarro will be, in fact, the landmark constitutional case.

00:18:28.000 I believe it is, as it works its way through the appeals courts.

00:18:32.000 On the constitutional separation of powers, on whether a partisan, weaponized Congress can attack a president with subpoena power and take away something that, Don, it goes back to the days of George Washington and the famous J Treaty, when George Washington, our first president, We've basically laid down the law on what's called executive privilege.

00:19:03.000 Why is that important?

00:19:04.000 Privilege has gotten a bad connotation these days, but executive privilege, the Supreme Court has recognized this, it's critical for a president to be able to have folks like me in the White House, senior White House advisors, and we're called the alter egos of the president, which we're just like the president when it comes to Congress not being able to subpoena us, to have confidential We're good to go.

00:19:48.000 Executive privilege will be dead as we know it, and it'll just become a partisan football of subpoenas flying all around.

00:19:55.000 Yeah, you need a president to be able to act, frankly, on both sides, right?

00:19:59.000 Yeah, exactly. The other side, the Republicans will never fight the same way, unfortunately.

00:20:04.000 Maybe this will teach them to, because it's only a matter of time until it happens to them.

00:20:08.000 But the Democrats, they've been playing a different game for far too long.

00:20:12.000 Do that. Run us through the case, because it's really...

00:20:15.000 I mean, you're willing to go to prison on principle by simply saying, hey, while it's still playing out in appeals, I'm sort of surprised...

00:20:23.000 Actually, nothing surprises me anymore that they would say, hey, you've got to go report to prison, even though you're still in appeals, right?

00:20:29.000 So there hasn't been a final verdict per se.

00:20:32.000 But talk to the people about the details of what this is, because you're actually...

00:20:37.000 You're taking a very strong stand on principle.

00:20:41.000 You're going to suffer for that, but you believe it enough.

00:20:45.000 And again, I wish we had more people that actually believed in these things because it is so critical to our country, but really it's so critical for the ability of the executive branch to actually function as it's designed to function in the Constitution.

00:21:01.000 Yeah. Well, look, it started with this so-called J6 committee, which your dad likes to call the J6 Unselect Committee, the witch hunt, as it were.

00:21:15.000 And look, I was in the White House.

00:21:17.000 I think you know this.

00:21:19.000 I was only one of two of the policy people in the White House who was with your dad all the way from the campaign to the end.

00:21:31.000 Stephen Miller was the other guy.

00:21:32.000 And then Dan Scavino, of course, was on the communication side, you know, brothers in arms.

00:21:37.000 Mm-hmm. I went through that whole four years watching with dismay how, as soon as Pelosi, in particular, got a hold of the House of Representatives, it was a subpoena after subpoena, impeachment.

00:21:51.000 It was just wrong.

00:21:53.000 It's just partisan weaponization using Congress.

00:21:56.000 Your dad knew, and I knew, As soon as that J-6 committee got formed, they weren't going to try to figure out what happened.

00:22:06.000 They weren't going to wonder why FBI informants were up there letting people in there.

00:22:11.000 They weren't going to wonder why the Secretary of Defense kept the National Guard 20 miles away.

00:22:17.000 They weren't going to wonder why Nancy Pelosi wouldn't provide the kind of troops to defend the police.

00:22:22.000 All they wanted to do, all they wanted to do, and this is This is contrary to what congressional powers are.

00:22:30.000 All they want to do is build a case so that they could indict and throw your dad in prison and stop him from getting back to life.

00:22:37.000 Using catchphrases. We knew that in the outset.

00:22:39.000 Violent insurrection.

00:22:41.000 Everything was, you know, treason.

00:22:43.000 Oh, I mean, that's terrible. I mean, you know, it's the first unarmed insurrection in the history of the world. 0.98

00:22:48.000 I mean, something tells me that's bullshit, but hey, that's just me.

00:22:51.000 I get a subpoena to come testify and produce documents before the J6 Committee. 0.88

00:23:01.000 From my experience in the White House, first of all, there's more than 50 years of Department of Justice policies across Republican and Democrat administrations that say That there's a policy of absolute testimonial immunity against compelled testimony by Congress, right? You can't do it.

00:23:21.000 Senior White House advisors can't be compelled to testify.

00:23:25.000 So I got that going.

00:23:27.000 And then, yeah, I called your dad.

00:23:28.000 This was the second subpoena I'd gotten.

00:23:30.000 And it's like, okay, what's our plan here?

00:23:35.000 And it was like, He's invoking executive privilege, like he did for almost every other person that went up to testify before that committee, right?

00:23:47.000 So, okay, I invoke executive privilege.

00:23:50.000 I get this. I tell him, I said it from the beginning to the end, to the committee.

00:23:55.000 Dan George was a lawyer.

00:23:57.000 It's like, Presidents invoked executive privilege.

00:24:00.000 Here's the important point. Not mine to waive by law.

00:24:03.000 It's not my privilege. I can't waive it.

00:24:05.000 Please, please go to the president and his attorneys.

00:24:09.000 If they're willing to waive it, I'll do whatever you need.

00:24:13.000 But I can't do that without violating my oath of office and dishonoring the Constitution.

00:24:21.000 And so that played out.

00:24:24.000 And What you wound up having, and one of the remarkable things in my sentencing hearing, Don, was the insistent by the court that this wasn't partisan.

00:24:33.000 Okay, parse this.

00:24:35.000 It's like... Sure it wasn't.

00:24:37.000 Yeah, I mean, think about this.

00:24:39.000 It's like the J6 committee, you got the seven most rabid of the impeached Trumpers on there.

00:24:46.000 Yeah. And Liz Cheney.

00:24:48.000 Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, the two Trump haters.

00:24:52.000 So they vote to hold me in contempt.

00:24:56.000 And then it's a strict party-line vote out of Congress.

00:24:59.000 So Democrat House votes to hold me in contempt.

00:25:05.000 Goes to the Department of Justice.

00:25:07.000 Democrat-controlled DOJ indicts He arrests me, throws me in leg eyes, that's a whole other story, prosecutes me.

00:25:16.000 I go before a judge, and by the time we get to the trial, and I didn't think this could happen in our justice system.

00:25:25.000 I mean, this is a broke justice system.

00:25:28.000 He had stripped me of every single defense.

00:25:32.000 Every single defense I could have presented, including the executive privilege issue.

00:25:36.000 I couldn't even talk about it.

00:25:38.000 And then, okay, do the math here, Tom.

00:25:41.000 This will blow your mind.

00:25:42.000 You probably know it.

00:25:44.000 Okay, juries are taken out of voter registration pools, right?

00:25:50.000 The vote against your dad in 2020 was 95% against Trump.

00:25:59.000 Okay? 95%.

00:26:01.000 The closest margin like that, you know, pro-Biden margin was Colorado, and the split was only 13%.

00:26:12.000 So my point is that you had a jury pool, which was overwhelmingly Democrat, and during what's called voir dire, There were a number of them who wound up on the jury who said they didn't like your dad.

00:26:28.000 All they had to get on the jury, again, it's like the judge would say, well, would that interfere with your judgment?

00:26:35.000 They'd go, well, no.

00:26:37.000 Okay, you're on. And Here I am.

00:26:43.000 And it would have been...

00:26:45.000 The funny part about the whole thing in a black comedy way is that the judge acknowledged that we were in uncharted constitutional waters.

00:27:00.000 I'm the first person to ever charge of this.

00:27:02.000 Uncharted constitutional waters.

00:27:04.000 There's all sorts of important issues that need to be settled in law up the chain in the higher courts.

00:27:12.000 He said that he believed that I believed, and everybody else believed that I believed, that executive privilege had been invoked and it was my duty to do what I did.

00:27:25.000 Yet... Well, it seems to be so consistent.

00:27:30.000 They waive all the norms, all the rules, all the precedent.

00:27:35.000 It's waived, in this case, against Donald Trump.

00:27:39.000 I mean, even a regular Republican may have gotten the benefit of the doubt on this one, but if it's Donald Trump, it doesn't matter if this has been done this way for 150 years and there's count.

00:27:49.000 We're just going to push the boundaries and we're going to try something a little different.

00:27:53.000 We're always going to be in uncharted waters, even if There's clear precedent.

00:27:57.000 Even if you're on appeals, it doesn't matter.

00:28:00.000 Congratulations, you get to still go to prison because we're going to make sure they teach anyone, whether it was from that administration or from future ones, a lesson.

00:28:08.000 Well, you know what's important here?

00:28:10.000 This isn't about me.

00:28:12.000 It's about the constitutional separation of powers, but it's also about your dad in a way, because I'm kind of a canary in the coal mine.

00:28:19.000 I mean, everything that they've done to me, they're doing to him.

00:28:24.000 You know, I had the leg irons arrested.

00:28:27.000 I could have just reported peacefully.

00:28:30.000 I don't know, man. You're pretty jacked right now.

00:28:34.000 They may have needed the leg irons.

00:28:37.000 He had, yeah, he's in a essentially Democrat-friendly venues.

00:28:47.000 They try to get him in these, you know, Atlanta, Manhattan, the District of Columbia, right?

00:28:54.000 The grand jury for a case in Florida was put together in the District of Columbia.

00:28:59.000 I wonder why that is.

00:29:00.000 Because maybe you could actually have objectivity in Florida, but that you're never going to get in D.C., And this thing I told you about how they stripped me of all my defenses going before I even got to a jury, I'm seeing that same process play out with your dad.

00:29:15.000 So explain that. What does that mean exactly when you say you were stripped of all your defenses?

00:29:20.000 Okay, so if I had been able to present a full-throated defense, It was simple that the president had invoked executive privilege, not my privilege to waive.

00:29:36.000 I tried to get him to, you know, the J6 committee to contact her dad.

00:29:42.000 They never did that. I would have been willing to testify.

00:29:46.000 And there's a Department of Justice policy over 50 years that says it's against the law to compel me to testify.

00:29:55.000 And I could have presented that To the jury, but the judge made this ruling based on this really, among others, this really obscure, you know, half of this. It's a 1963 case involving a mobster named Licavoli, James Licavoli, who refused to testify before Congress on the advice of his counsel.

00:30:23.000 Okay? Okay. And in the district court, they said, that's not an adequate defense.

00:30:29.000 You're going to prison.

00:30:31.000 And Out of that, the idea is that the standard becomes in Licavoli is that all I got to do is prove that you didn't show up.

00:30:42.000 It doesn't matter why.

00:30:44.000 Okay? Now, it's a ridiculous precedent because it has nothing to do with the implication of constitutional separation of powers or bigger constitutional issues.

00:30:56.000 It should not have been applied to begin with and equally and or more important It's going to be overturned, I believe, up the chain because it shouldn't apply.

00:31:07.000 But when you do that, it's like they turned a constitutional case into a speeding ticket.

00:31:14.000 Oh, he didn't show up.

00:31:15.000 He's guilty. So when I got to the trial itself, I'm sitting in front of, you know, 12 people drawn from a jury pool that, yeah, pretty, pretty blue state.

00:31:29.000 Um, I couldn't defend myself.

00:31:33.000 If I got up on the stand and said executive privilege, couldn't do it.

00:31:40.000 Couldn't provide any explanation.

00:31:43.000 It could have been a heck of a trial.

00:31:45.000 It could have been very interesting at that level.

00:31:49.000 But that's not what we have.

00:31:52.000 And so this is up the chain.

00:31:54.000 The other thing is, look, it's common that In cases for once you're sentenced to provide what's called release pending appeal.

00:32:06.000 Okay, so the judge could have done what another judge did in Steve Bannon's case, which is similar to mine, and simply said, you stay out until you have your chance to go through the appeals process.

00:32:21.000 My judge didn't do that.

00:32:23.000 But isn't that the purpose of the appeal?

00:32:25.000 Is there no way to accelerate that so you can get that going?

00:32:28.000 Because it sort of feels like, great, you could serve five months in prison, then you're exonerated later on, but you don't get the five months back.

00:32:35.000 That is the irony.

00:32:37.000 A mockery of the whole system, isn't it?

00:32:39.000 Yeah, as we're speaking, I've got two appeals going on.

00:32:43.000 One's the big appeal of the case itself, and that's already kind of in process, but that's going to take a little bit of time.

00:32:51.000 But I also have like an emergency appeal at the appeals court, and it's already cued if the appeals court says no to go right to the Supreme Court.

00:33:02.000 And that'll be decided hopefully within the next few days in some sense.

00:33:07.000 But here's the important legal point.

00:33:09.000 It's like if a case like mine involves important constitutional issues that have a significant chance of being overturned that lead to a dismissal of the case or a retrial, Then you grant your release pending appeal.

00:33:36.000 My attorneys are going, wait, this is like the poster child for that.

00:33:42.000 I mean, everything we argued in all the motions and hearings leading up to the actual trial was about these constitutional issues.

00:33:51.000 And so, I mean, look...

00:33:54.000 Yeah, and this is in front of the January 6th committee that literally...

00:33:59.000 Had made up stories.

00:34:00.000 You know, Cassidy Hutchinson heard from someone that Donald Trump was stealing the beast. 1.00

00:34:05.000 You know, they knew it was bullshit. Like, of course he wasn't stealing the beast. 1.00

00:34:07.000 By the way, if he tried to steal the beast, I'd actually be like, that's pretty cool.

00:34:11.000 He'd probably do pretty well with the manga crowd.

00:34:14.000 I mean, if anyone should be prosecuted, shouldn't it be them?

00:34:18.000 If anyone... I mean, Cassidy Hutchinson clearly, to me, lied before a congressional body, perjured herself grossly. 0.98

00:34:27.000 You know, now, three and a half years later, I guess this was what, last month?

00:34:32.000 You know, 19 pages of revision to her sworn testimony.

00:34:35.000 Like... You know, that's not like, oh, no, no, I messed up the date.

00:34:38.000 I meant, like, you know, three hours before that.

00:34:39.000 I'm sorry. I said 12. I meant 11.

00:34:42.000 Like, no, no, no. 19 pages of revision to testimony that was on every news station across the world as though it was the gospel.

00:34:50.000 It was the furtherance of, you know, the narrative and the this, that this was a real insurrection because she knew.

00:34:57.000 But 19 pages of, like, did she even have 19 pages of testimony?

00:35:02.000 I don't even know. Yeah.

00:35:03.000 It seems insane.

00:35:05.000 And yet, you know, they want to put you in prison.

00:35:08.000 And that person was like, yeah, guess what?

00:35:10.000 You did what you needed to do.

00:35:11.000 You lied at the time, but there's no problem because, you know, we actually got the result we wanted.

00:35:15.000 So there is literally no consequence to lying before a congressional body and before all of America on national TV. Well, you know, I think there's a good case that can be made that much of what Those folks did on the J6 committee.

00:35:49.000 And a lot of the stuff that has been done on the Hill by Democrats, with the help, the complicity of the media, you know, the Morning Joes of this world and the Rachel Maddows, is flat out election interference.

00:36:04.000 I mean, if you go back to the Russia hoax, That was election interference before the election, right?

00:36:10.000 They were trying to stop the boss from getting elected by smearing him.

00:36:15.000 And then once he got in, it was an attempted coup d'etat.

00:36:19.000 They were trying to take him out with that.

00:36:22.000 And then going into 2020, all of that...

00:36:26.000 Russia hoax, Ukraine, all that stuff, was an attempt to prevent him from getting elected in 2020.

00:36:35.000 And now, look, I go back to the moment I got my subpoena and then subsequently talked to your dad.

00:36:43.000 It's like we knew, he knew from the outset.

00:36:48.000 That the purpose of that committee was to get Trump.

00:36:52.000 That was it.

00:36:53.000 And by the way, by the time I got my subpoena, I was kind of towards the end of the list.

00:37:00.000 Your dad had invoked executive privilege for lots of folks that I served shoulder to shoulder and arm to arm.

00:37:11.000 Scavino and Meadows and Bannon and all of that.

00:37:14.000 Yeah. Yeah, we know what the game afoot here is.

00:37:19.000 And so if we can get the right House and the House and the Senate and the Department of Justice back, it'd be interesting to find out some answers to some hard questions within the context of the intent of these things.

00:37:40.000 Why do you think you were treated differently?

00:37:43.000 What are they doing?

00:37:44.000 Yeah. Well, why do you think you were treated so differently than so many others who were also, you know, probably equally, maybe not as hated.

00:37:51.000 I guess you had the cardinal sin of taking on China rather than bending a knee to them. 0.99

00:37:56.000 So maybe that's maybe that's the difference.

00:37:58.000 But what do you think the difference is?

00:38:00.000 Well, I think, first of all, they needed a target and a scapegoat.

00:38:07.000 They went after the two people that they brought to trial.

00:38:13.000 We're me and Stephen K. Bannon.

00:38:15.000 And what he and I share in common is our harsh criticism of Communist China, which led them, by the way, I don't know if you know this, but something like within six minutes of Biden taking over the White House, Communist China set out sanctions.

00:38:36.000 On a number of Trump officials.

00:38:40.000 And I was there, one of them.

00:38:42.000 Steve was one of them.

00:38:44.000 It was other folks.

00:38:47.000 Pottinger and Pompeo.

00:38:50.000 But, you know, we're...

00:38:53.000 China has some influence.

00:38:56.000 And the other thing is, look, I'm outspoken.

00:38:58.000 I make no bones about the fact that these, I mean, like Steve and I were outspoken.

00:39:04.000 They didn't prosecute, they chose not to prosecute either Dan Scavino, and I'm really happy for that because I love Dan.

00:39:13.000 He's such a good man, good father, and a friend of And to the president of Loyalist to the Patriot, they didn't prosecute Mark Meadows either.

00:39:25.000 And the difference at the time was I didn't have a lawyer and maybe they thought I was an easy mark.

00:39:32.000 But I want to try to make sure that they regret this decision in that we get this To the appeals court, we get this to the Supreme Court, even if I'm stuck in prison.

00:39:46.000 And we settle the law on this.

00:39:50.000 There has to be good law on constitutional separation of powers and executive privilege.

00:39:57.000 That's my holy grail here.

00:40:00.000 That's why I'm willing to go to prison if I have to.

00:40:04.000 And, you know, coming back full circle where we started, it makes it more comforting to know that you and Sergio are publishing the new MAGA deal, which may help Let's talk about that a little bit, because I want to get into the details of that.

00:40:30.000 I mean, you got the new MAGA deal, the unofficial deplorables guide to Donald Trump's 2024 platform.

00:40:36.000 So it's really more of a toolbook, honestly, than...

00:40:40.000 You're actually not going into details on this stuff that we're talking about as much as you are about what will be vitally important for voters to understand what the 2024 platform is, what it could be as opposed to the America Last policies that we're getting.

00:40:58.000 I mean, tell us more about that because you have sort of two parts.

00:41:02.000 You have sort of what you believe...

00:41:04.000 And what I believe, frankly, a lot of the policies should be, most of those economic and otherwise.

00:41:11.000 But you also kind of go through 10 or 12 of the other guys like you, people who were loyalists.

00:41:18.000 You had Rick Grinnell, other sort of MAGA guys, people that would be shunned by the swamp, but that were really good in their roles, were effective, steadfast, and loyal.

00:41:32.000 Break that down a little bit for us.

00:41:34.000 Well, when I could see this book, the idea was to have each chapter focus on a single policy and to have it written kind of op-ed length, like 800 to 1,000 words so it's easily digestible, right? And if you look at the folks who are there, I, along with Rick, set the tone of the book at the beginning because we talk about what MAGA means.

00:42:06.000 I handle it. I call it the Iron MAGA Triangle.

00:42:09.000 It's the end endless wars, secure borders, and fair trade.

00:42:13.000 That's kind of when your dad walked down the escalator with Melania, that was kind of That was kind of the core of his principles.

00:42:20.000 And then Rick takes up where I leave off with a really nice chapter on what populist economic nationalism means and why it doesn't mean America alone.

00:42:36.000 So that's the stage he said.

00:42:38.000 And then you have chapters on everything.

00:42:42.000 Russ Vogt, who was our OMB director, And he's just fighting the good fight now.

00:42:48.000 I'm on Capitol Hill to prevent us from going off a fiscal cliff.

00:42:51.000 He handles the budget stuff.

00:42:55.000 I got David Bernhardt, who was a great Department of Interior Cabinet Secretary.

00:43:02.000 And I worked with him closely during the administration doing things like pulling Chinese drones down.

00:43:08.000 So we wouldn't use those, but he handles like the energy policy.

00:43:14.000 We've got Frank Gaffney, who does a great job on some of the China financial issues, like money flows coming in and out.

00:43:27.000 A good buddy of mine, who was a co-author on my Death by China book, Greg Autry, talks about the Chinese space They want to get to the moon before we do and claim all the raw materials up there and be able to shoot nuclear weapons down us.

00:43:44.000 So we kind of explained that.

00:43:46.000 And just every single issue and what I did with my research team is we went and faithfully read your dad's speeches, looked at the website for the policy papers and also the videos that are up there.

00:44:01.000 I know And have very high regard for the two speechwriters, Vince Haley and Ross Worthington.

00:44:09.000 And it's very much a collaborative affair.

00:44:12.000 So folks who read the new MAGA deal will really get an inside textured look at how all this works.

00:44:24.000 And the thing I want to stress here, Don, is that...

00:44:29.000 The difference between Joe Biden and Donald Trump right now, stripped of everything, is that Donald Trump showed over four years that he knows how to deliver economic prosperity, border security, economic security, national security, and peace.

00:44:51.000 With Russia, North Korea, Communist China, Iran. 0.55

00:44:55.000 He did that. And everybody now knows that Joe Biden can't do that.

00:45:01.000 Okay? Doesn't seem like Joe Biden can do a lot.

00:45:04.000 So what we did in the four years of the first Trump administration was beautiful policy.

00:45:12.000 But what's so beautiful about what's going to happen next is that it's up like three or four or five notches in terms of Being able to do things.

00:45:22.000 I mean, it's going to be...

00:45:24.000 And he's going to hit the ground running.

00:45:25.000 When we first got there, there's a learning curve, right?

00:45:29.000 And it took us a while.

00:45:31.000 And look, even if we lose to Congress, which I hope we don't, I'm telling you, and I spent most of my time in the White House helping to do this, executive orders are a hammer. 0.96

00:45:43.000 And they get stuff done, they get them done quickly, rather than having to wait around for those fools on Capitol Hill... 0.94

00:45:48.000 Yeah. To pass stuff. 0.98

00:45:51.000 But it's going to be day one.

00:45:53.000 Day one, hit the ground running.

00:45:55.000 And one of the other, the last thing I'll tell you, is we actually explain how, what actual policies are going to be implemented.

00:46:03.000 And there's other, you know, like there's stuff, I've got some really nice chapters on the whole transgender and women's sports and all that stuff like that, that deal with some of these culture wars.

00:46:13.000 Mike Davis, That guy is a legal hammer.

00:46:19.000 I'd love him to be AG. I don't think he'll get confirmed, but let him be the temporary AG for a couple of months.

00:46:25.000 We'll get everyone else approved.

00:46:27.000 They'll say, we've had enough. We surrender.

00:46:29.000 You can have whoever you want.

00:46:33.000 Newmagadeal.com Don Jr.

00:46:36.000 and Sergio Gore are the masterminds of the whole thing.

00:46:39.000 I really hope and believe that this book We'll make a difference.

00:46:45.000 A lot of books don't Nobody notices.

00:46:50.000 Well, it's also a path forward, right?

00:46:51.000 People on the show, you know, they're upset with what's going on.

00:46:55.000 I think there's a lot of people around the country who are, you know, waking up to just how far we've fallen. 0.90

00:47:00.000 But the answer is always like, hey, you can sit there and bitch about everything.

00:47:03.000 But this is actually a path forward, right? 0.79

00:47:06.000 I mean, this is a plan for the future.

00:47:09.000 And that's what's probably thus far been missing.

00:47:12.000 Now, you know, they may not follow it to a T. It's the unofficial guide.

00:47:15.000 But, you know, listen, in...

00:47:18.000 Publishing it and going through it.

00:47:19.000 I'm like, man, I'm on board with all of these things.

00:47:23.000 I mean, you were obviously the China hawk, right?

00:47:27.000 Taking on China as our greatest threat economically, militarily, any other way.

00:47:33.000 That was there. I mean, you were the guy in the Trump White House that saw all of the China chaos coming.

00:47:39.000 You know, what role do you think...

00:47:42.000 Well, again, do you think that has a role in your persecution, given how the swamp has sold our country out to China? 0.98

00:47:49.000 I mean, I sort of touched on that earlier, but I wasn't sure.

00:47:53.000 Obviously, you were just an outspoken voice, and therefore you were going to be made an example of, but do you think it was more so because also the positions on China and how everyone, it seems, in Washington, D.C. is somehow or other economically linked to China's success far more than they are to America's?

00:48:13.000 No doubt. And I buried one lead when you said forward.

00:48:17.000 I need to give a pat on the back to Stephen K. Bannon because he writes a heck of a forward, which kind of ties all of that together because the forward of the book starts when your dad got elected in 2016 and it's like the day after.

00:48:33.000 And I go on...

00:48:36.000 CNBC and the futures markets are headed dead red down, and the international markets have collapsed overnight.

00:48:43.000 And I just simply sit there and talk about what your dad's going to do, and it actually turned the thing around.

00:48:51.000 Well, it is interesting. I've seen that a bunch, right?

00:48:53.000 Every time Trump won like a primary state, or every time his polling went up, literally China's stock market went crumbling down.

00:49:02.000 I mean, they're literally so clearly linked.

00:49:05.000 Like, isn't that almost all you need?

00:49:07.000 Like, if your greatest threat, your greatest enemy, literally is A... I'm predicting what's coming in the future, but also suffering because of it.

00:49:18.000 Isn't that a positive?

00:49:19.000 And how involved are they going to be in sabotaging this election, by the way?

00:49:24.000 Well, look, to your point about whether my role as a China hawk, you know, Steve left the administration like early in 2017.

00:49:36.000 I chied him about it because we could have used him.

00:49:39.000 But I was like, there wasn't a lot of guys like me around.

00:49:44.000 And I think if I say this humbly, but I do believe there's a general understanding that I was one of the more effective Public servants helping move things through the White House in what I called in Trump time.

00:50:00.000 I mean, breaking the logjam on steel and aluminum tariffs was a big deal.

00:50:05.000 forcing the Chinese to the table, getting the tariffs passed some of the internal opposition

00:50:12.000 in the White House, moving it.

00:50:15.000 And look, nobody's happier that I'm going to prison than Xi Jinping, the dictator of

00:50:21.000 China.

00:50:22.000 I can assure you, they're like going, wow, this is great.

00:50:25.000 Navarro, we got rid of him.

00:50:29.000 But look, they are our greatest existential threat.

00:50:32.000 But the problem is, Joe Biden has created a whole range of threats.

00:50:37.000 Because the Biden family is on their payroll, so it's natural.

00:50:41.000 That was one of the greatest investments China ever made, was in a crackhead like Hunter, because they basically owned this administration.

00:50:50.000 And our Congress and our media is too weak to actually look at it.

00:50:54.000 By the way, 2024, what should our trade strategy towards China be in the next Trump administration?

00:51:01.000 Should it be the same as we had?

00:51:03.000 Should it be more aggressive?

00:51:05.000 How far can you push it?

00:51:06.000 Because you understand there's consequence to all of these actions, but where do you think you have to go?

00:51:13.000 Well, I'm a tough China hawk, but I'm more of a Teddy Roosevelt kind of proponent.

00:51:21.000 You talk softly, carry a big stick.

00:51:23.000 I mean, I don't think we need to go out and beat on our chest and say we're going to, you know, whatever.

00:51:31.000 But what we need to do, and your dad was ready to do this in a second term, which he fully believed at the time, He was going to get before the damn thing got stolen, was to really begin the process of decoupling from China by significantly raising tariffs to the point where you begin to lock Chinese goods out.

00:51:54.000 The problem, of course, that we have to navigate, and it's a serious problem that I spent a lot of my time in the White House trying to deal with, Was that China has a chokehold on key elements of our supply chain, as well as end-use products.

00:52:11.000 I mean, pharmaceuticals are kind of the poster child.

00:52:14.000 Yeah, rubber gloves, surgical gloves.

00:52:18.000 Well, penicillin, vitamin C. I mean, I think one of the best executive orders I drafted in And your dad's sign was one that was aimed at buy American and bringing our supply chains home for pharmaceuticals.

00:52:41.000 And we made some pretty good enrolls as a result of your dad.

00:52:45.000 So that's the balance.

00:52:47.000 But we simply...

00:52:48.000 Look, here's the thing.

00:52:49.000 The most remarkable statistic, and this was true back then, is that our trade deficit with China Communist China, never forget that, has been roughly equal to their annual military budget. 0.81

00:53:05.000 So when we go in and buy their crap, we're essentially arming the missiles The aircraft carriers, the submarines, the fifth-generation fighter jets they stole from us in terms of designs that may well, at some point and possibly in the near future, sink an aircraft carrier of America with 5,000 souls on it headed right to the bottom of the Taiwan Strait.

00:53:37.000 That's what we don't understand as a country. 0.97

00:53:40.000 That's what the Republicans and Democrats on the Hill haven't wrapped their head around, but that's what your dad understood, that's what I understood, and that's why economic security is national security, right?

00:53:55.000 Economic security is national security.

00:53:57.000 To the extent we stop China from their economic aggression, We're able to choke off their military capabilities.

00:54:06.000 But we're not doing that right now.

00:54:08.000 And look, we get back to Hunter Biden and Joe Biden and the brother James, the Biden crime family.

00:54:15.000 I mean, a Hunter Biden laptop from hell is the most revealing expose of a grift scheme selling out this country that you could ever imagine.

00:54:27.000 And I'm going to prison and Joe Biden's sitting in the White House.

00:54:30.000 Go figure. Well, let's bring it back home.

00:54:33.000 Obviously, China's a huge threat. 0.90

00:54:35.000 But in one of your chapters, you talk about, you know, our large companies, you know, endangering and engaging in, you know, endangering our children, but by engaging in woke fare.

00:54:46.000 You call it woke fare, which actually I think I've never heard the term, but it actually makes total sense, you know, and against other companies and customers, too.

00:54:55.000 And we've seen that the cancellation of, you know, whether it's employees or these, you know, they're going all in.

00:55:01.000 Get into detail on WOKEFARE and solutions, how we can handle that coming from government.

00:55:10.000 It's difficult to understand all of the factors that have gone into the corporate-making decision, but by and large, the companies on the S&P 500, the major corporations of this country, The people who run these corporations have decided that woke policies are the way to go.

00:55:34.000 So it's like rather than focusing just on profits, it's the equity, the diversity, all of that stuff.

00:55:42.000 And as a practical matter, the way that manifests at Wokefare is that all of their advertising dollars – We're good to go.

00:55:56.000 From conservative media, right?

00:55:59.000 So they literally choke that. 0.95

00:56:02.000 So that's why Rumble, we need Rumble because it becomes an alternative.

00:56:08.000 That's why we need some of these other things.

00:56:13.000 But it's part of the legacy media strategy, the corporatists working with the legacy media.

00:56:21.000 And then just the policies where...

00:56:26.000 Corporations now, the employees there, dare not speak about anything related to religion or politics.

00:56:37.000 If somebody finds out that, by God, they voted for Trump, it puts their job at risk.

00:56:45.000 Yeah, no, listen, I've spent my whole, you know, since the White House, I've spent my whole time trying to build this sort of alternative economy, right?

00:56:52.000 Whether it's with, you know, Winning Team Publishing, publishing your book, right?

00:56:56.000 Doing that, trying to give an outlet, whether it's, you know, I think I was the second verified user on Rumble after Dan Bongino.

00:57:02.000 I'm doing, you know, MXM News, you know, to make sure that people can get sort of the not Google curated version of what's actually going on right there with Public Square.

00:57:14.000 You know, to try to align like-minded individuals, patriotic businesses with other small businesses in the area so that, you know, you can vote with your wallet.

00:57:22.000 It's so critical because corporate America has totally forgotten about actual Americans.

00:57:28.000 They don't care. I know so many people that work in corporate America that, you know, You say Merry Christmas, you're going to be laid off.

00:57:34.000 Now, if you say, you know, marry whatever some other, you know, let's call it a checkbox religion, that's totally fine. 0.98

00:57:41.000 And it's gotten so disgusting that I think it's truly something that we have to work on so greatly here in this country.

00:57:51.000 Because... I know people, they walk to work, they're in fear at work every day for saying something that would be common vernacular, that would have at any other time in history just been a nice courteous gesture.

00:58:04.000 If you say to Merry Christmas to someone, you don't know that they don't celebrate Christmas, and you're going to the gulags. 0.89

00:58:09.000 I mean, I work with redballoon.org, a job board that actually finds conservative positions with conservative people so that you don't have to be subjected to sort of the trans mafia at corporate HR. There's so many of these things out there that are doing it, and I think it's a really important fight. 0.90

00:58:27.000 We've got to be fighting all the battles.

00:58:29.000 But, you know, it's only recently that we've sort of engaged on all these other fronts that we've allowed to be taken over and commandeered by so many on the other side.

00:58:38.000 So, you know, it's awesome that you acknowledge that and see that as well because, like, I feel like sometimes it's like, hey, man, I'm out there trying to do this, but it ain't easy.

00:58:46.000 And we need people on board to actually make that happen.

00:58:49.000 Once they figure it out and they know, it seems so obvious because, you know, they're literally going after our...

00:58:57.000 Our very soul, you know, as a nation, the principles that we all grew up knowing and loving, they've just eliminated all forms of common sense or even common decency or courtesy.

00:59:10.000 It's just out the window for an agenda that seems, frankly, to be nothing other than just destructive, while our enemies probably laugh their asses off that it's going on here right now.

00:59:21.000 Well, one of the remarkable things about your dad and his administration is he turned the Republican Party into the party of the working class, the blue collar Americans, the middle class folks.

00:59:36.000 And we have to remember, Don, that the corporations, particularly the bigger ones, Have a vested interest in opposing just about every policy that Donald Trump stands for.

00:59:51.000 I mean, they love the cheap labor coming across the border.

00:59:55.000 They love the unrestricted visas for the higher end kind of workers.

01:00:02.000 They love the kind of the globalist mentality.

01:00:07.000 And frankly, a lot of the people who run American corporations are not Americans.

01:00:15.000 These executives are from all over the world.

01:00:20.000 Populist economic nationalism is inapta to them.

01:00:26.000 Whatever it is, ultimately, we know they've made a choice.

01:00:32.000 And we have to fight back.

01:00:34.000 And Woke Fair is just a very, very destructive institution in this country, just as lawfare is.

01:00:43.000 And I spent a lot of time in the new MAGA deal talking about the whole concept of lawfare with the help of guys like Mike Davis, which is using our legal system to promote partisan ends.

01:00:57.000 So We got a battle on our hands, brother, but we're going to fight the best way we know how, and that's what we, you know, information is power.

01:01:08.000 Well, I guess, yeah, I appreciate you doing it.

01:01:11.000 It's sort of, like I said, it's sort of surreal to even have this conversation, knowing that, you know, he's supposed to report to prison tomorrow.

01:01:17.000 You know, I remember, I sent over a copy of my ID because you're going to be down in Miami.

01:01:23.000 I was like, just because I needed to do that now in advance to be able to come even visit and just sort of Pay my respects for that.

01:01:32.000 What have you been told about what to even expect?

01:01:36.000 Do you anticipate serving all five months?

01:01:39.000 Will you be writing even more from there?

01:01:41.000 I assume you get a little bit more time.

01:01:44.000 How much does this all sort of motivate you to help get the job done in November?

01:01:51.000 Has this been...

01:01:54.000 I noticed me, when I get back in a corner, it actually makes me fight so much harder. 0.94

01:01:59.000 Russia, Russia, Russia sort of brought out an animal in me that I didn't know because I was like, bullshit, I'm not sitting in the sidelines like, you know, my lawyers, you can't go on TV, you can't say that, you can't fight back. 0.99

01:02:09.000 It's like, the fuck I can't and I'm going to. 1.00

01:02:11.000 I know no other way. 1.00

01:02:14.000 I got too much of the Trump genes.

01:02:17.000 What have you sort of heard about all of that?

01:02:21.000 Well, we have to speak up.

01:02:23.000 Look, it's been interesting.

01:02:26.000 I've had a number of folks contact me who've had the prison experience.

01:02:34.000 But, you know, the common thread is prison is prison.

01:02:39.000 You go walk in there, you strip, and they give you their clothes and You're their property for the rest of the time you're there.

01:02:52.000 It's unclear whether there'd be any reduction in the sentence at this point.

01:03:01.000 What I'm just trying to focus on now is just standing tall and doing what I need to and get to the other side of it.

01:03:13.000 Just Thinking about how so many men and women in this country have lost their lives or lost their limbs.

01:03:22.000 I remember when I was in the administration, I had occasion to go up to Walter Reed and I'd see these quadriplegic, paraplegics in the gym trying to recover their lives.

01:03:35.000 You know, like my sacrifice is small compared to them, but the payoff's high.

01:03:42.000 Don, if the U.S. versus Peter Navarro ends well at the higher levels of court and preserves the constitutional separation of powers and executive privilege as a tool of effective presidential decision-making, I'm at peace with that.

01:04:01.000 That's a good life.

01:04:03.000 So, you know, we'll see, as your dad loves to say, we'll see what happens, brother.

01:04:09.000 I look forward to seeing you and Sergio...

01:04:13.000 We'll do that. On the other side of the glass, I guess.

01:04:19.000 I make some jokes right now, but it seems totally inappropriate.

01:04:23.000 It's hard to turn off my personality when it comes to some of these things, but I'm going to let it go.

01:04:28.000 But hey, man, it's just an honor.

01:04:31.000 I appreciate the friendship.

01:04:32.000 I really appreciate The patriotism.

01:05:13.000 As you can see, even from the start of this interview, I'm just...

01:05:16.000 I was shocked. I was like, hey, you know, it wasn't bitching about getting locked up by a rogue dictatorial government that's, you know, a banana republic regime in America right now.

01:05:27.000 It was about, no, this is what we have to do going forward and how to fight back.
