Paris has now killed more than 100 people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world. | |
| You don't want to frighten the American public. | ||
| France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans. | ||
| But you need to prepare for and assume. | ||
| Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China. | ||
| This is going to be a real serious problem. | ||
| France, Australia, Canada, the US, Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam, the list goes on. | ||
| Health officials are investigating more than 100 possible cases in the US. | ||
| Germany, a man has contracted the virus. | ||
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| Japan, where a bus driver contracted the virus. | ||
| Coronavirus has killed more than 100 people there and infected more than 4,500. | ||
| We have to prepare for the worst, always. | ||
| Because if you don't, then the worst happens. | ||

| Here's your host, Stephen K. Banham. | ||
| David Amess. | ||
| My mother Maud was very sad about the death of Baroness Thatcher, but she was delighted that my right honourable friend has committed our party to a referendum on our relationship with the European Union. | ||
| Given that my mother will be 101 next Thursday, she wondered if the referendum could be brought forward. | ||
| Can I first of all... | ||
| Can I first of all send my fond regards to your mum and wish her a long and happy and healthy life and remind her that if she votes Conservative in 2015 she will have that in-out referendum that the country deserves? | ||
| Okay, welcome. | ||
| You're in the War Room. | ||
| Saturday, 16 October, Year of Our Lord 2021. | ||
| That is Sir David Amos. | ||
| I want to bring in now Rahim Ghassan. | ||
| By the way, Peter Navarro, Dr. Peter Navarro is co-hosting with me all day today. | ||
| Stand by. | ||
| It's going to be explosive, the information we're going to lay out to you. | ||
| Rahim, I've got to bring you in here. | ||
| You ran Breitbart London for many, many years. | ||
| You've been on this situation of Islamic terrorism in Western Europe and what came to the United States. | ||
| One of the really great ones, just a fantastic, fantastic person, a Brexiteer, a member of Parliament, one of the leaders of the pro-life movement, one of the senior Catholics in the government. | ||
| Everybody across the board loved this guy. | ||
| In his constituency, back there yesterday, in a church, in a Methodist church in his constituency, assassinated, let's call it what it was, he was assassinated. | ||
| by Islamic terrorists, what they're calling now a terrorist situation, and it took hours and hours and hours, and quite frankly, the Rahim Ghassan of the world, for the mainstream media over there to even admit the guy is Somalian. | ||
| So, Rahim, tell us what's going on. | ||
| How was this revered Member of Parliament assassinated in front of, by the way, brutally murdered by a knife, multiple knife stabs, in front of his constituency? | ||
| What happened, and why is the British establishment and media covering this up? | ||
| Well they always do and I'm sure within the next maybe 10 hours, maybe even less, we'll hear something about mental health and that the assailant, the murderer, the assassin has mental health issues. | ||
| You know, it appears that they only roll out the mental health card when it's an Islamic terrorist and I don't, you know, particularly think it's In their favor to link Islam with mental health, but hey, that's what they're doing when they say these sorts of things. | ||
| I think, look, just to bring it back to what happened yesterday and what we've been saying all along, you know, I've written two books about this now, right? | ||
| No Go Zones, about Islamic migration into Europe, and then Enoch was right, which was about the failure of people to integrate into Western civilization and what it means, what happens if that, if that goes down. | ||
| We saw what happened yesterday. | ||
| Another member of our parliament was assassinated While he was trying to meet his constituents as he did often they know that clip you played at the beginning Really really does, you know show what a man he was he was a happy warrior. | ||
| He was a Catholic. | ||
| He believed he was pro-life But he was he always had a smile on his face when he was doing those things and As a result of his sad death, of course, more people are finding out about David Amis the man, and I commend that to them, because he was just the embodiment of how we should fight every single day. | ||
| But the establishment in the United Kingdom now, rushing, rushing to try and bury the story, because guess what? | ||
| There was a 25-year-old Somalian man who murdered him yesterday, and questions have to be asked about who this person was, how he got into the country, and frankly, At the same time this is all going on, Steve, they're still bringing in boatloads of migrants on the beaches of England coming across from France while all this is taking place. | ||
| That is the backdrop and it's sickening. | ||
| By the way, they're still talking about and debating the migrant situation. | ||
| Nigel Farage is out on the beach with the camera with guys coming across. | ||
| Raheem, you wrote this book that had such an impact, no-go zones, where you actually went over into continental Europe, but you talked about the United Kingdom, but you also went to Europe, talked about these no-go zones in these big cities. Isn't the no-go zone today reasoned popular political debate in Commons and other places about exactly the Islamic terrorism and the issues with radicalized Islamic youth that are bound to return? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, that's been a no-go zone for some time. | |
| But that's the real no-go zone today, isn't it? | ||
| I mean, this is what we've got to bring up because this is a cold-blooded assassination in a church of one of the most revered gentlemen in Parliament. | ||
| How can the British people look the other way? | ||
| How can BBC look the other way on this? | ||
| How can the Times of London look the other way on this? | ||
| Because it speaks so heavily to decades of bad policymaking, decades of poor reporting, decades of not holding the establishment to account for keeping Britain's borders open and having, you know, let's not even, you know, just ignore the fact that this isn't a one-off. | ||
| Like, Lee Rigby, A soldier was basically beheaded on a London street and everybody's already forgotten. | ||
| Forgotten his name. | ||
| Forgotten what happened. | ||
| Forgotten why it happened. | ||
| And more importantly, forgotten the attacker and what their motivations were. | ||
| You know, this is globalism that is causing these problems. | ||
| Listen, I have enough problems with Islam, enough that I wrote a book about why I had to leave it. | ||
| But Islam is, you know, it exists, and you're not going to defeat an entire 1.2 billion people out there, but what you can do is protect yourself against the ideology when it's taken to its extreme, as we saw yesterday. | ||
| And the political establishment in the United Kingdom does not want the reckoning from the public Why? | ||
| The big question. | ||
| Why have you let these people in? | ||
| Why do we give them immunity against scrutiny? | ||
| What's going on in the mosques? | ||
| What are they being taught? | ||
| You know, none of that has happened. | ||
| We laugh and giggle about it and release funny films like Four Lions, but we never actually have a reckoning with what has happened to our country and who is doing it, who is responsible. | ||
| Boris Johnson is no different from David Cameron, is no different from Tony Blair, was no different for Sir John Major. | ||
| All of these people have flushed the United Kingdom down the toilet of mass migration and we're living, we're living that and unfortunately David Amos is dying that. | ||
| First, let's broaden that lesson out to the United States. | ||
| You know, you've made the point the migrant crisis in 2015, brought on by Angela Merkel and the globalists on the continent, really drove the rise of populism and nationalism in Europe, not the financial crisis of 2008, which drove it here. | ||
| What do you see today? | ||
| What parallels do you see today between Biden and the lineup you just named of the Uniparty in the United Kingdom about this crisis of migration? | ||
| The only thing I think that is different now from let's take Tony Blair as an example 1997 Tony Blair becomes Prime Minister effectively opens the borders changes the curricula in schools to be Fairly Marxist, I would say. | ||
| Pretty focused on race and, you know, doing down British history. | ||
| The only thing I would say is the difference between somebody like Joe Biden and Tony Blair. | ||
| Well, two differences. | ||
| Number one, Tony Blair knew where he was at all times. | ||
| Number two, is that Joe Biden and the people around Joe Biden are doing it without caring what you think. | ||
| You know, Blair still regarded himself as a populist. | ||
| He still wanted to be popular with the people. | ||
| There weren't, you know, F. Tony Blair chants. | ||
| Six months after he became Prime Minister. | ||
| These people don't care. | ||
| They're in your face. | ||
| They know you're not going to do anything about it. | ||
| And that's why I get so irate about these things. | ||
| Because I saw it happen in the United Kingdom. | ||
| We couldn't stop it happening in the United Kingdom. | ||
| And now it's happening here and it's happening at a much faster pace here. | ||
| It's actually terrifying to watch. | ||
| What do you think about, though, the response? | ||
| You look at these poll numbers. | ||
| You're probably one of the best analysts for not being a pollster of actually going through the details of the crosstabs. | ||
| What does it show you right now as you've seen poll after poll after poll with his collapse, particularly among independents and particularly on this topic? | ||
| By the way, Hispanics and African Americans too, and particularly on this topic of this invasion on the southern border. | ||
| What does the math show you right now of where this administration is in particular regards to support by the American people and political capital? | ||
| That his support amongst even his own party is kind of threadbare. | ||
| They appreciate the fact that they quote-unquote have a Democrat president in office, but they don't really care for him. | ||
| They don't really care for how he is conducting affairs. | ||
| They don't like his people. | ||
| Jen Psaki, Ron Klain, these are all fundamentally, Kamala Harris, I mean all fundamentally unpopular people. | ||
| The numbers show us, however, that the moderates and the independents are willing to shift, to move, and importantly, and this is the really critical factor about polling, is they're willing to tell pollsters that. | ||
| People who don't want to be thought of as extreme or far-right or whatever, Um, tend to kind of lie to pollsters a little bit, but now they've stopped even, like, hedging on this. | ||
| They're telling pollsters outright, like, we don't like this guy, we don't like this decline, we don't like these policies, um, but the Democrats support, I mean, he's got it, like, if you look at the polling and say, oh, you know, 85% support amongst Democrats, but then you get into the corollary questions, they're not, they're not impressed at all by what they've got here, and I think this is going to, End pretty soon for Joe Biden. | ||
| Unfortunately, I think it means you end up with a President Harris, but I think that's an easier ticket to beat in, what, two and a half, three years. | ||
| Raheem, I know you're in New York City now, uniting the various factions up there that are always at each other's throats. | ||
| Walk us through, what are you guys covering on National Pulse before we go back to Peter Navarro? | ||
| National Pulse is on fire. | ||
| Although Natalie's back at school, you're still on fire. | ||
| Tell us what you guys are focused on. | ||
| Well, we remain focused on how many people in Washington DC continue to be compromised by the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| I mean, I could probably do that for the rest of my life alone and would not get even through maybe 60-70% of all of this. | ||
| Does the brazenness of that shock you? | ||
| Clive Hamilton came out with a book called Hidden Hand. | ||
| Does the brazenness of the money that the Chinese Communist Party has spread around the city of Washington DC shock you about how brazen guys are about taking their money? | ||
| It would shock me had I not ever been to Washington D.C., but since I have and I've met the type of people that live there, it doesn't shock me. | ||
| What does shock me, however, is that there aren't enough reporters out there who are willing to tell these stories. | ||
| I mean, Josh Rogin is obviously fantastic over the Washington Post, and you've got a couple of books, and Bill Gertz and all those guys, but by and large, I mean, you talk to mainstream politico types about this, I mean, their eyes will glaze over. | ||
| They have no idea what you're talking about. | ||
| Um, but they do, they do benefit from it. | ||
| They are benefactors of the Chinese, uh, beneficiaries of Chinese Communist Party, large S. Um, and I'll do a podcast today with, with my old buddy Ben Harris Quinney, the chairman of the Beaux Group. | ||
| He knew David Amos, Sir David Amos, very well, so I'm going to have him on the podcast today as well. | ||
| So that'll be up later on today at thenationalpulse.com. | ||
| We'll push that out on all of our platforms. | ||
| The podcast is on fire, and by the way, Ben is fantastic. | ||
| Hey, Raheem, thank you very much. | ||
| What's your social media? | ||
| How do people follow you? | ||
| Those that don't right now that watch the show. | ||
| All My Spiciest Takes a reserve for Getter now. | ||
| Getter.com. | ||
| I'm Raheem Kassam on there, and I just love the platform, so I'm usually there. | ||
| Raheem Kassam, founder and publisher of an editor-in-chief over at National Pulse. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| I want to bring in Dr. Peter Navarro. | ||
| Peter, before we go to break, we've got a break in about a minute. | ||
| To Raheem's point about money the Chinese Communist Party has spread in this town and the resistance you saw as the head of manufacturing and economic policy for President Trump in the White House as assistant to the president. | ||
| Is Rahim overstating that? | ||
| Is that an overstatement that the cities are washing money from the Chinese Communist Party that have bought off our institutions? | ||
| No, it's an understatement because it's not just DC, but it goes all the way out to my old spot, UC Irvine and everywhere in between. | ||
| It's the money pots or the honey pots, right? | ||
| They either get you with a sex scandal like Eric Swalwell, or they sent you a bunch of money. | ||
| If Denver, if you can play clip four real quick, it's a beautiful segue from what Rahim was talking about with illegal immigration and the supply chains, if we can do that. | ||
| What he does with a stroke of a pen is undo everything. | ||
| And by the way, on the border, Sean, I was part of working with Pat Cipollone, the White House legal counsel, when we threatened Mexico with tariffs, people's heads exploded, but we got them on that threat. | ||
| In 24 hours, Sean, they sent 15,000 troops to the border. | ||
| Give us those safe third agreements. | ||
| We doubled that with Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador to get the same thing. | ||
| We stopped that border crisis in its tracks. | ||
| We got 2 million illegal aliens coming across the border. | ||
| Right now, it's simply going to put downward pressure on the people who can least afford it, which is our blue-collar, lower-income Americans. | ||
| Inflation is the cruelest act, but stagflation is even crueler. | ||
| Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We'll be back. | ||
| Sir David Amas assassinated in the United Kingdom and we have an invasion on our southern border. | ||
| Peter Navarro. | ||
| Dr. Peter Navarro next in The War Room. | ||

War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| With Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room. | ||
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host Stephen K Bannon. | ||
| Podcast or get your podcast make sure you download War Room get your friends to download it also it adds to our muscle right adds to our muscle with the live audiences in the millions throughout the world particularly now I thank GTV and G News for simulcasting in Mandarin and in Japanese. | ||
| I want to go back to, and here's what we're trying to do today. | ||
| We've got a lot of guests coming on. | ||
| We've got guests coming on and we've got some transhumanist stuff in the vaccine stuff in the second hour. | ||
| It's going to blow your head off. | ||
| But I want to make sure that when you're getting to gatherings around the next week or so, around Halloween, and the shelves have been empty and the kids didn't get all the costumes. | ||
| And then later at Thanksgiving, we're going to round the table. | ||
| Since people can't get into the fights of Donald Trump this, Donald Trump that, we really want to talk about signal, not noise. | ||
| And we want to talk to you about the economic implosion of the greatest economy in world history. | ||
| That would be the United States economy. | ||
| And particularly what the economy was in the holiday season of 2019, the greatest year for American workers ever. | ||
| And so we brought one of the architects of that, Dr. Peter Navarro, who had a great turn on Hannity last night. | ||
| It was so great to see you on Sean last night, Peter. | ||
| We're going to play close-up throughout the day. | ||
| To really get in back of the collapse of the supply chains, inflation, what this new spending means, and kind of give you a theory of the case. | ||
| So you're well armed in your personal life, in your professional life, in your personal investing life, and in your political life. | ||
| And that you can share this and become a force multiplier. | ||
| So today we're going to go through some pretty detailed things, but they're to arm you, to make you more aware of what's really going on, and not just see the spin that's coming out of the... because the political channels can't really cover economics or capital markets very well, and the business channels don't cover it very well either. | ||
| So, Peter, I'm going to go back to Sean's piece. | ||
| It was pretty detailed what you said, but I want to tie together the assassination of Sir David Amas, The migrant crisis that shocked Europe in 2015 that still goes on today with the global elites, with the invasion on the southern border, and the problems that you and President Trump addressed with policies that worked and are demonstrable work. | ||
| And I want to add to that, the Biden administration just said, I think it was yesterday or Thursday night, the federal courts have determined that your remain in Mexico policy was correct and they just can't Signed it away with the sign of thing. | ||
| They've got to enforce it and they've announced now after slow walking it We had Benson on yesterday that they're going to start enforcing remain in Mexico around November 15th And Todd says the reason is they're going to have 500,000 people here in November if they don't Peter Navarro Steve, I remember well the day I walked into Pat Cipollone's office, the White House Legal Counsel. | ||
| The President was beside himself at the inability to stop the flood of illegals coming across the border, Steve. | ||
| It all went to this decision called Dolly G by one of these liberal Obama judges that had institutionalized the policy of catch and release and had this really bad side effect of making children essentially the bait for cartels to get people across the board. | ||
| It was just a chaotic decision. | ||
| And on that day, it was like, OK, how can we do something here? | ||
| And it was like, OK. | ||
| Why don't we threaten Mexico with tariffs? | ||
| Now, what was interesting is, both the left and the right exploded. | ||
| The Wall Street Journal went ballistic on us, as MSNBC and everyone in between, but within 24 hours, Steve, Mexico agreed to send 15,000 troops to the border and adopt the safe third issue, which is basically if illegals come, they get sent back across the border and remain in Mexico. | ||
| And from an incentive point of view, what it did was it send Ripples down the chain all the way to Argentina was, okay, the door's closed, but we don't want to go sit in Mexico for an indeterminate time. | ||
| So that worked, and it stopped everything in its tracks. | ||
| And one of my great fears was that Biden would undo pretty much everything we did with executive orders, and he did that with this safe third thing. | ||
| And you and I talked about this problem back in January, and I predicted over 2 million illegal aliens coming, and your head exploded. | ||
| It's like, where's the data? | ||
| Where's this? | ||
| That's what you do. | ||
| That's what you're good at. | ||
| And it was like, no, no, no, no. | ||
| Well, here's the data, and here's what's going to happen. | ||
| And I was wrong only in a sense that I underestimated what's going on right now. | ||
| Now, tie it to David Amos. | ||
| Hold it, hold it, hold it. | ||
| I want to go back to this. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| I'm going to tell you something. | ||
| Are you shocked when you made this bold prediction? | ||
| You've made some pretty bold predictions in the past. | ||
| They've come true because you look at the analytics. | ||
| Are you shocked that we're in October and that the $2 million will be an undercount? | ||
| No. | ||
| Look, I've seen this issue. | ||
| I'm an economist. | ||
| I understand incentives. | ||
| If you look at the chessboard, you can immediately see, okay, 95% of the illegal immigration comes from Mexico. | ||
| And the northern triangle countries of Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras. | ||
| But when you open the border once again, that 95% changes. | ||
| What you then get is down south, You get all manner of gaming, strategic gaming of the system, and now you're seeing Haitians, you're seeing Chinese, you're seeing people from the Middle East come in through Brazil, wind their way up, and the crush of numbers now. | ||
| Here's why we care. | ||
| I mean, the Amos thing, it's the tip of a huge iceberg of violence that's going to be perpetrated on countries when you have this unvetted, unlimited Kind of immigration and the quality that I think is most frightening about this that we're seeing in England for example and in much of Europe are these no-go zones. | ||
| Basically what's happening is the legal immigrants are coming in or maybe they're legal in Germany and they take over sections of the country And essentially set up their own little sovereign states where the Sharia law becomes a thing and things like that. | ||
| The whole idea of a melting pot, Steve, the Statue of Liberty, let them bring your tired, hungry and poor here and everybody's gonna kumbaya. | ||
| That's not what's happening in this world, and this is beheadings on the streets of London, as Rahim pointed out, now a stabbing, but look, when you bring over 2 million illegal aliens across | ||
| Our southern border in a criminal culture where a large percentage, and this is not hyperbole MSNBC, you look up the numbers, a large percentage of the women get raped along the way as a condition of being allowed to enter the United States. | ||
| There's even a term for it. | ||
| We know that there's going to be Criminals coming up here and maybe they have a hard time finding a job, they're going to start doing their thing. | ||
| Many documented issues of the mothers who lost their children. | ||
| By the way, the Biden administration incentivizes the cartels to do the human trafficking, to basically abuse the women and children. | ||
| They're incentivized to do it. | ||
| And then it adds to, and this is why the Rio Grande Valley is turning to Trumpism, It adds to not just the security, but more important, this is what suppresses wages for the working class. | ||
| You've documented this so well. | ||
| In fact, the reason that, what they never want to talk about, the reason that 2019 was the greatest year ever for workers in this country because of Dr. Peter Navarro's policies with President Trump that restricted immigration. | ||
| That's why blue-collar workers Got this wage boost. | ||
| And Dr. Navarro, this is something that the uniparty of establishment never wants to talk about. | ||
| This is what's crushing working class people is this flood of cheap labor, sir. | ||
| Yeah, and I dare say that the common thread here, the discussion we're going to have today about supply chains, I mean, the common thread here, Steve, is the quest of corporate capital for cheap labor. | ||
| You can either offshore and get the slave sweatshops in China, Or you can onshore sweatshop labor by opening up the border. | ||
| For the corporatists, it's the same result, higher profits. | ||
| In one case, when you offshore the jobs, you create enormous, what we're seeing now, supply chain risk. | ||
| Traditionally, it's been viewed as a small tail risk, when in fact it's a huge tail risk. | ||
| And then if you inboard the cheap labor by opening up the border, you get the social welfare leeching on the taxpayer, you get more crime, and then you get the downward pressure on wages, primarily black and brown Americans in our inner cities, and that in turn creates more crime in the cycle, and we have | ||
| A chaos in a country that is, the schism politically is broad, and then now you're getting pockets of the country which are totally cut off from the rest of the country because they've established different cultural norms, different religious norms, and there seems to be no clue in the Democrat Party that this is destructive. | ||
| I want to add on top of that, vaccine mandates. | ||
| And we're going to do this because you're one of the first guys I've warned about that. | ||
| Real quickly, we've got about a minute before we break. | ||
| I also want to add another thing that nobody's talking about. | ||
| It's all MarketWatch has one piece about it, but you and I have talked about a lot, is this concept of just-in-time inventory. | ||
| What people don't understand is that a very sophisticated system was set up, and this is principally for financing costs so that the big companies don't have to hold the inventory for too long on their balance sheet, then boom, it comes just in time, the order's from China, the whole logistics chain's gotta work. | ||
| This is the great irony of what's happening now. | ||
| Buttigieg and Biden and all this... It comes just in time, Steve, until it doesn't. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to tie together all the threads of what's happening that's going to lead to a cold, dark winter and why Biden is not on top of this now. | ||
| And Buttigieg's on vacation, on family leave. | ||
| Nobody's at home. | ||
| Nobody's thinking this through. | ||
| And the collapse is going to be catastrophic all next in the War Room. | ||

We rejoice when there's no more. Let's take down the CCD. | |
| War Room Pandemic with Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room Pandemic. Here's your host Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| I mean there's so many things going wrong but let's start with two that President Trump had right. | ||
| First of all, we are the Saudi Arabia of natural gas and energy, and we've got gasoline on fire right now, and natural gas prices are scorching. | ||
| Now, that's not just energy that's going up. | ||
| Food production is largely dependent on energy. | ||
| Fertilizers are made out of natural gas, so we're going to get energy and food price shocks. | ||
| Buy American, hire American. | ||
| That were the two simple rules, Sean, of President Trump. | ||
| And we warned for years that if you don't build it here, your supply chains won't be here, and when push comes to shove, you won't be able to get it. | ||
| Now we got these ships stacked off of Long Beach, and we've got that kind of crisis. | ||
| By the way, he's America's economist. | ||
| He's America's people's economist. | ||
| Dr. Peter Navarro. | ||
| The book is in Trump time. | ||
| You've got to get it. | ||
| Go to Amazon right now. | ||
| Tells the whole thing. | ||
| My Journal of America's Plague Year. | ||
| It's all about the last year of President Trump's first term. | ||
| And it's shocking reading. | ||
| All the big issues we deal with. | ||
| You see the railhead of them all in there. | ||
| And it's a first-person account. | ||
| And there's no anonymous quotes. | ||
| Peter Navarro puts it all on the record. | ||
| It's pretty amazing. | ||
| The piece on Sean Hannity was fantastic last night. | ||
| I'm so glad that the War Room posse, so the posse, you got to think about it. | ||
| Navarro is your personal economist. | ||
| That's, I mean, corporations got to pay big dollars for that, that advisory. | ||
| But it's pretty incredible, Peter. | ||
| It's pretty incredible. | ||
| The only thing I'm going to note, and I'm going to talk to my producers in Denver and in the senior command at Real America's Voice, And Cameron and the team in DC. | ||
| Why are you so, what's the coat and tie, and you look like a corporate guy on Sean Hannity, and in the war room you're coming in and tease with the gun show of, you know, you look like you just worked out. | ||
| What is it? | ||
| Hey brother, when in Rome, baby! | ||
|
unidentified
|
When in Rome, do as the Romas do. | |
| But yeah, Sean, one of the things last night is like, I reminisced a little bit about how when | ||
| He and I were together briefly on the South Lawn of the White House at that Republican National Convention that we had to do virtually, and it was a big show, and it's like neither one of us ever dreamed in our wildest dreams that, you know, if the President lost, which we didn't think would happen, and he didn't, by the way, that Biden would manage to do every single thing Wrong. | ||
| And they have no concept of supply chains. | ||
| But I'll kick it over to our coffee man if you want now to hear from him. | ||
| Yeah, here's what I'll do, and I'm going to bring you back. | ||
| I want to talk to, I brought Don Ahman in to basically talk about supply chains. | ||
| He's Minute Man Coffee. | ||
| By the way, it's a coffee we swear by in the war room, and particularly, I love dark roasts. | ||
| I know Peter Navarrez, as Peter Navarrez is on anything, he's obsessive and an aficionado, so he loves it also. | ||
| By the way, Steve, my first book was called If It Rains in Brazil by Starbucks. | ||
| Just so you know. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Go ahead, Don. | ||
| Don, walk us through what's happening up in Seattle, Pacific Northwest, your Pacific Northwest company, and also your issues with the supply chain and what's going on right now. | ||
|

Well, first off, I want to tell Peter that the same we have around here is that friends don't let friends drink Starbucks, so we'll just start off with that. | |
| Amen, brother. | ||

A lot of a lot of people don't realize that before I started Benjamin Coffey We actually used to own a trucking company and in and one of the biggest issues that we ran into Especially when we were hauling into California was the draconian rules that they brought in through the California Air Resource Board or CARB compliant and so what we're seeing now is a lot of the major corporations have actually Known about this for years. | |
| It wasn't a Trump thing. | ||
| It wasn't the former administration. | ||
| We dare not say his name, but it's now all coming to head. | ||
| And I think what's happening is, is you have the larger mega corporations, whether it's Amazon or Walmart or Target or Home Depot or any of the major corporations, they all knew about this coming in years ago. | ||
| And so what they did is they started rerouting all of their containers. | ||
| And it's not a port issue. | ||
| It's now become a conglomeration of the CARB-compliant trucks where California and through the Port of Los Angeles, Port of Long Beach, they will not allow a truck that is over three years old onto their property because they believe that the CARB-compliant trucks are polluting the air. | ||
| So now all of a sudden, we have the VAX mandates, which the drivers who are by themselves 99% of the time They're refusing the vaccine. | ||
| Back during the Clinton administration, I believe it was, they put a ban on trucker strikes. | ||
| And so now what's happening is we have all of these independent drivers. | ||
| We've got an influx of cheap labor coming into the trucking industry that are hauling for super cheap rates, putting owner operators out of business. | ||
| It's literally just one issue piling on top of another. | ||
| And now we're seeing the ramifications of that. | ||
| I just put out an email yesterday to all of our... Go ahead. | ||
| No, go ahead. | ||
|

|
Keep going. | |
| Keep going. | ||

|
No, so we just sent out an email yesterday to all of our coffee members and saying, are you ready for the slowdown? | |
| Because we've been notified not only by USPS, UPS, FedEx, that they have a driver shortage. | ||
| I mean, back on the 9-11 weekend, I literally had thousands of our orders sitting on the deck here ready to ship. | ||
| But UPS had a driver shortage and we didn't get our pocket constitutions in on time. | ||
| And a lot of people were pissed and I get it. | ||
| But like I've always said, I will never ship an order of coffee unless we have our constitution in it. | ||
| And so with them people realize that. | ||
| But it all came down because of a driver shortage. | ||
| So now we're dealing with the vaccine mandates. | ||
| We're dealing with car compliant trucks not being allowed into the ports. | ||
| Washington up here when the village idiot that's running this state that thinks he's gang. | ||
| Is scaring everybody we're having the driver shortage. | ||
| I mean, it's just a myriad of things But if you really think about it when you were talking about just-in-time inventory We knew this and I knew this not only from being in the the the trucking industry how? | ||
| Fragile that that just-in-time inventory is I mean you remember the the great toilet paper fire of 2020 I? | ||
| Mean it's like I don't know why it was toilet paper but as a prepper at heart and and You know, I personally plan from this, you know, we've got hundreds of thousands of pounds of coffee sitting on the deck ready to go. | ||
| We were ready for this. | ||
| And now all of a sudden, we're seeing it happen. | ||
| And I'm, you know, I'm not trying to be a fear monger. | ||
| These are facts. | ||
| You know, I know the Biden administration... No, no, no. | ||
| We're trying to get people ahead of the curve here. | ||
| What we're trying to do, this is the posse, they love getting ahead. | ||
| You know, tomorrow's news today, we're trying to people, hey, This is, they've made so many stupid mistakes and Buttigieg, and Biden thinks he can get on a conference call and say I want you 24-7. | ||
| They showed today, there's a big article about what a lie that was. | ||
| There's one terminal in San Pedro that's working 24-7. | ||
| This is not going to get fixed quickly because it's a bunch of decisions they've made and also the way the system's set up that is, as you're saying, it's not resilient, it's actually fragile. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Trump and Navarro and these guys knew that. | ||
| That's why they reinforced that. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And started to say, we've got to bring these things back. | ||
| Don, real quickly, how do people get to the site? | ||
| How do they find out more about the company? | ||
| How they get access to you? | ||
| Particularly, you had this idea that, hey, people may start getting into a system where they pre-order the coffee to make sure they get it, which I think is pretty brilliant. | ||
| How do they do that? | ||

Well, we have our coffee subscription, and not only do you get a 15% discount if you subscribe and save, we have it set up to where you can do everything from two bags on up to however many bags a month you want. | |
| We've got the whole bean, we've got the drip grind, we've got the pods. | ||
| I know you're a big fan of the don't tread on me and the come and take it roast, which we really appreciate. | ||
| And I love the fact that you love my coffee. | ||
| I think it's awesome. | ||
| But I think that it's imperative that if I've taken the time Don't you stock up and make sure that you all have enough coffee in your cupboards. | ||
| Get a subscription. | ||
| Sign up. | ||
| It's a free, you get access to additional roasts. | ||
| I've got a roast that we're getting ready to launch in December 7th and our coffee members, our subscribers get access to that before the general public. | ||
| But I think it goes above and beyond because not only when we deal with this, it's not a matter of, it's not panic time. | ||
| It's now it's time to look at the facts, look at the logic, and let's prepare for this. | ||
| And because the system is so fragile, the big box companies, they knew this, and they've already planned for it. | ||
| And so that's where we're saying to the general public and maybe Peter, you can you can verify this with me. | ||
| If they knew about this years ago, and if the Trump administration and you knew and as things were really coming together, you know, 2019 was an amazing year for for shipping and for trucking and And for the economy in general, but now look at where we're at less than 18 months later. | ||
| It's insane. | ||
| It's ridiculous. | ||
| Don, thank you very much for joining us. | ||
| Real quickly, on social media, how do people follow you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, we are actually on Gitter now. | |
| I think we've got like 28 followers. | ||
| It's sort of cool. | ||
| It's at Minutemen Coffee. | ||
| We're on the socialism site, Facebook, at Minutemen Coffee, Instagram, Minutemen Coffee. | ||
| It's MinutemenCoffee.com. | ||
| And like I said, the 9-11, get out there and adopt a firehouse. | ||
| Get out there and adopt a first responder. | ||
| Get on there and spend $20 or $40 and get a couple bags of our 9-11 tribute roast. | ||
| We're a quarter, $25,000 into it in our first month that we've raised. | ||
| Our goal is $250,000 for the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation. | ||
| And if it wasn't for your listeners, I mean, we are just rocking it with these guys. | ||
| And I, you know, my goal ultimately is next September is to be back in Maryland with you, Steve. | ||
| And, you know, to be able to hand that organization, my dream is hand them a million dollar check. | ||
| I think that would be amazing. | ||
| But, you know, get out there and if you live, if you live in a society, in a community that is serviced by a fire department or an ambulance service or a law enforcement, buy them a bag of coffee. | ||
| What's 20 bucks out of your pocket? | ||
| That's all I'm saying. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Don, thank you so much. | ||
| Appreciate you coming on. | ||
| Appreciate everything you're doing for First Responders and giving us insights into this debacle of the supply chains. | ||
| Peter, Don brought up a phrase called Fragile, about resilience and fragility. | ||
| I just got a question to you because, listen, people don't maybe know about Navarro, and I can say this. | ||
| Peter Navarro was at the White House seven days a week for four years, right? | ||
| I don't remember you ever taking a vacation. | ||
| I mean, when you were there, you were the most dedicated guy working for the president. | ||
| And not just that, you were busy all the time. | ||
| They're all issues before the... I tried twice to get away, Steve. | ||
| I tried twice to get away for just three days. | ||
| And I got out to California one day, and the next thing I know I get a call from John Kelly, Chief of Staff, that says, get your butt back, and I got on a plane and I was back the next day. | ||
| No, you work 24-7. | ||
| This is what just infuriates me about Pete Buttigieg. | ||
| I just can't even imagine. | ||
| Look, Steve, you were in the Navy, right? | ||
| You go out on a ship, right? | ||
| You're on a mission, right? | ||
| You're not checking back in at home every day. | ||
| No. | ||
| That's what it is when you work for the President of the United States. | ||
| Pete Buttigieg, your ass should be sitting in a chair in the Department of Transportation taking care of what is one of the worst crises that we're facing in transportation that's leading Steve, don't get me started on this. | ||
| Hey, by the way, New York Post, I love their headlines. | ||
| I got one for Halloween, the Joe Biden ghoulish, right? | ||
| Like, caviar cheaper than candy corn. | ||
| don't get me started on this. Hey, by the way, New York Post, I love their headlines. | ||
| I got one for Halloween, the Joe Biden ghoulish, right? | ||
| Like caviar cheaper than candy corn. | ||
| Bite that, right? Let's get into this Justin Times thing when we get back because it started in Japan and was... Go ahead. | ||
| Let's take a break. | ||
| I want to come back to all that and tie it together. | ||
| That people's lives, your normal everyday life, is not just changing, it's about to change in a big way. | ||
| It's because these disastrous policies, and really more importantly, not understanding the way the system's set up. | ||
| They're supposed to be so smart. | ||

| He's on fire over there. | ||
| The engagement with you on that is pretty extraordinary, Dr. Navarro. | ||
| The spots you're putting up about the book, the other spots you're putting up about the economy. | ||
| I want to go to something people are not talking about. | ||
| I need to get your voice in this. | ||
| Let me just say something about that real quick, because I'm passionate about this. | ||
| Getter is a Twitter killer. | ||
| It's essential people get on Getter, because here's the thing. | ||
| I'm putting up identical content on Twitter And getter. | ||
| And I'm getting a 10 to 1. | ||
| Engagement rate on Getter versus Twitter, and that tells you right off the bat that Twitter's doing its shadow man stuff. | ||
| You cannot, and you can't detect it. | ||
| The only way I could detect it is by that kind of activity. | ||
| 10 to 1, Steve. | ||
| So the Twitch censors, their algorithms, they're getting you. | ||
| Get on Getter, we'll get it moving, we'll get to the truth, truth to power. | ||
| Go ahead, Steve. | ||
| Hey, I want to get into that just in time, but I got to go back just to Buttigieg for a minute because you're the perfect example of a guy that when you go into government service and you do something, you dedicate your life to it and not understand what's going on. | ||
| And it's not about parental leave. | ||
| Let other people argue that. | ||
| It's about even if you're on parental leave, he is so unqualified for the job he has, That this debacle, and they own this, they own this 100% between the vaccine, everything is converging together that you've warned us about, right? | ||
| But his lack of, and this tells you how not serious the Democratic Party is, and really the Biden administration, they're not serious people. | ||
| I mean, we like dealing with serious people. | ||
| This guy is so over his head of understanding what happened. | ||
| He's been gone since August. | ||
| How could you? | ||
| And Peter, we've had you on. | ||
| We've talked about this since the late winter, early spring. | ||
| of 2021 when you start talking about this right away he said hey this supply chain is going to be an issue you got all this stuff from the pandemic you're going to start adding these vaccine mandates this is going to be a massive issue what you were talking about nine months ago had the secretary of transportation not be briefing the president, national security council, the American economy is going to grind to a halt here. People are going to be furious. This is the death spike into this regime. But just hurting America, how could this guy not be more on top | ||
| of things, Dr. Peter Navarro? | ||
| I think what Kamala did was, let's figure out where to put Buttigieg, where he can't like compete against me for 2024. | ||
| So let's bury him at the lesser agency we can kind of figure out, which is how stupid they are, too, because transportation Is the centerpiece of a manufacturing country, and it's so important to our defense industrial base as well, so they buried him there. | ||
| Here's, I think it's worth pointing out here, Steve, when I... Hold on, hold on, let me just say one thing. | ||
| Hang on, hang on, you're gonna get to that in a second, about the book. | ||
| I slightly disagree. | ||
| He kind of wanted transportation, and it's what our guest Don Ahman said, the coffee guy, Remember, the reality is about the trucks. | ||
| They've been doing this, trying to do this for years. | ||
| Interior and transportation are the two hidden agencies that are going to push the Green New Deal. | ||
| That's why you had the protest just in Washington at Interior where they went inside. | ||
| Also transportation. | ||
| This is Buttigieg who's going to take ownership of the Green New Deal through everything that they're jamming through. | ||
| So this was looked at as his platform for 2024, Dr. Peter Navarro. | ||
| Here's the point I want to make. | ||
| When I'm in the White House working on a package in spring and the summer of 2020, right, of stimulus, The centerpiece of that package was Buy American, Hire American, bringing our supply chains onshore. | ||
| That was the central portion of the expenditures we were going to do, Steve. | ||
| If you look at the $3.5 trillion Red Ink deal to nowhere. | ||
| There's nothing in that at all, Steve. | ||
| Nothing. | ||
| Nothing, nothing, nothing that will ensure security of our supply chains. | ||
| It's just Robin Hood, progressive, crazy stuff and Green New Deal stuff, but nothing that's going to ensure the security of supply. | ||
| People, the American people should demand that that guy resign, not because he took parental leave, but because he abandoned his post in the middle of a firefight. | ||
| This is a pandemic. | ||
| This is a supply chain crisis. | ||
| He's a secretary of the Department of Transportation. | ||
| And by the way, how come Biden's not summoning him to the White House and saying, hey, we got issues? | ||
| Why? | ||
| Nobody's criticizing him inside the administration. | ||
| Look, the bigger picture here is that you and I talked about the supply chain stuff back when Trump was still president, right? | ||
| We were focused on buy American, hire American, executive orders to bring things home. | ||
| And this whole notion of just-in-time, Steve, that concept originated in the island nation of Japan, which has absolutely no natural resources to speak of. | ||
| Japan established itself simply as a hub for assembly and brought in components from all over the world and for them it was ideally suited for that in that time. | ||
| And they used that to crush American manufacturing in many ways, but America, with its abundant resources and the best workers in the world, is suited for economic nationalism and populism. | ||
| Make it here so you don't have to depend on communist China or anybody else when push comes to shove. | ||
| And that's, therein lies the tale. | ||
| And the margins for error in just in time are so thin and the distortions we have now are so bad that we're having exactly the crisis we're having, Steve. | ||
| Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| Get ready for a cold, dark, and joyless winter brought to you by Joe Biden in this incompetent regime. | ||
| Some people say they're doing it on purpose. |
