|---|---|---|
| Congress point to a growing slice of the American electorate that is losing faith in the Biden presidency at the one-year mark. Weakness at home does not give you strength abroad. | ||
| In a moment, I'm going to speak with the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Bob Menendez, who's pushing what he calls the mother of all sanctions bills in an effort to deter Putin. | ||
| But we're going to start with our chief foreign correspondent, Richard Engel. He's got the latest from Kiev. And Ian Brenner, the president and founder of Eurasia Group and GZERO Media, who clearly has his ear to the ground, particularly with our allies in the G7. | ||
| Richard, let me start with you. | ||
| Is Kiev a city that is preparing for war? | ||
| You've covered other wars. | ||
| You've seen other cities batting down. | ||
| Is this a city that is acting as if war is imminent? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| No, it is not. | ||
| When you walk around the city, the restaurants are full, people are out, nobody's boarding up windows. | ||
| You do not get a sense at all that they are preparing. | ||
| Businessmen are not taking their money out of the country or moving their families to remote spots or other areas. | ||
| There is a sense here, among the public at least, from what I can tell talking to people, talking to business leaders, that They're not quite sure what to believe, but since they've been in a low-grade war with Russia for many years now, for eight years, they think that this could be just more of the same. | ||
| That this is a bluff by Putin, that he's trying to extract concessions, but they don't think, or many don't think, and you can see based on their actions that they're not that worried, that there's actually going to be a full-blown invasion. | ||
| But they're starting to get more suspicious. | ||
| I'm starting to hear people coming up and asking, well, why is it that the foreign press is talking about this? | ||
| And it's not just one media outlet. | ||
| It's not just NBC or CNN. | ||
| Why is it also the BBC and the New York Times? | ||
| And it's on the front page of all the European newspapers. | ||
| Yet here in Ukraine, it's barely getting a mention. | ||
| And when President Zelensky talks about the crisis, He says that people have nothing to worry about, that they should go about their business, that they should have family barbecues. | ||
| And he said, we will all get together in 2023, meaning that this crisis and potentially COVID-2 will all pass and things will get back to normal. | ||
| And he specifically said that he doesn't see more of a threat to Ukraine now than there was a year ago. | ||
| At Davos a few years ago, the Edelman survey showed us that the good news is the elite across the world trust each other more and more. | ||
| So we can come together and design and do beautiful things together. | ||
| The bad news is that in every single country they were polling, the majority of people trusted that elite less. | ||
| So we can lead, but... File examples about how the anti-vax movement is moving out of the online realm and more into the real world and into politics here. | ||
| Yeah, these organizers are expecting at least 10,000 people. | ||
| And I wouldn't be surprised, to be honest with you. | ||
| You know, they have sold out hotels in Virginia. | ||
| They're staying in Virginia because there is a mandate in Washington, D.C. | ||
| that you have to be vaccinated to go pretty much anywhere. | ||
| So they're staying in Virginia. | ||
| They're busing people in, you know, and it makes a lot of sense. | ||
| These are the people speaking at this event. | ||
| Who made a name for themselves pushing things like ivermectin over the last year and a half. | ||
| If somebody in your family or a friend got sucked into that rabbit hole over the last year and a half, they probably know these names. | ||
| It's people like Robert Malone, the ex-Fox person, Laura Logan, RFK Jr. | ||
| These are all huge names on parts of the internet where the vaccine is unacceptable and they are coming together for the first time. | ||
| This is like their Woodstock and they are coming together this weekend on Sunday. | ||
| I was so struck by the way that one anti-vax researcher phrased it to you, that this is going to be, as they described it, a who's who of grifters and people who made a profit off the pandemic. | ||
| That's what this is. | ||
| Yeah, that's exactly right. | ||
| A lot of these people not only pushed Ivermectin, but aligned themselves with these large doctor groups like the FLCCC that pushed alternative therapies to the vaccine. | ||
| However, if you call this event an anti-vaccine rally, these people get very upset. | ||
| They are not happy with you calling this an anti-vaccine rally. | ||
| Why is that? | ||
| Because what are they saying? | ||
| That it's anti-mandate? | ||
| Is that what they're saying? | ||
| Yeah, they're saying it's anti-mandate. | ||
| Now, there are a couple of reasons for this. | ||
| First of all, it's a little bit more acceptable to say, hey, you know, you could have taken your vaccine, but we need you on our side against these mandates. | ||
| But there is another reason that's probably a little bit more important. | ||
| It doesn't get you banned from Facebook. | ||
| And there is an 11,000 person strong Facebook group called Defeat the Mandates that is pushing people towards this specific event on Sunday, not just in DC but in places like Fort Lauderdale and Denver, Sacramento. That's totally allowed on Facebook. You know, Defeat the Vaccine would be a completely different group on Facebook that would have been banned a long time ago. It's actually a global movement that's going to There's going to be marches and anti-mandates all over the world. | ||
| And we're going to be covering it. | ||
| We have a pregame tomorrow, 10 o'clock till noon. | ||
| You're not going to want to miss this. | ||
| Just the same type of intense coverage we gave the March for Life today. | ||
| And by the way, we're going to have more March for Life people here as that wraps up. | ||
| But when you say grifters and people making money off it, would you not include Big Pharma in that? | ||
| In the top 1% of the world that just increased their wealth by $5 trillion? | ||
| Oh, grifters, and yeah, hey, how about a grifter, MSNBC? | ||
| By the way, Hallie, I'm still waiting for you guys to talk about the COVID virus blowing through Beijing 15 miles from the venue of the Olympics, and the gutless NBC, gutless NBC, that will not send their sportscasters to Beijing. | ||
| Won't send them to Beijing because they're afraid of the virus, but it's okay to send the athletes to Kowtow and to be props for the transnational criminal organization that is the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| By the way, I want MSNBC, and this is the thing, the belly laugh, I'm going to bring in Cortez. | ||
| Brother Cortez, I was laughing so hard. | ||
| Poor Chuck Todd. | ||
| He got jammed up the other day by Ashley Parker saying that they did a focus group on Biden and the words were incompetent, sleepy, out to lunch, a moron. | ||
| And then the woman says, can you please take a nap? | ||
| And she's saying this and Chuck Todd's head Ted's like screwing around like the girl in Exorcist. | ||
| He goes to Richard Engler. | ||
| Richard Engler is the chief. | ||
| He's the chief international correspondent for NBC News. | ||
| He's not some NBC grundoon. | ||
| He's the chief international correspondent for NBC. | ||
| They go to him, Ukraine, and this is after the whole first half of the show, they're running around and, you know, they've got high-level meetings and the Secretary of State and Andrea Mitchell's got the big long face and she's in Kiev and is saying, hey, is Kiev planning for war? | ||
| No. | ||
| The restaurants are open. | ||
| What do they think? | ||
| They think it's fake news. | ||
| The only people playing it up are the foreign press. | ||
| Quote, and this is a quote from Richard Engler, barely getting a mention. | ||
| This is totally phony. | ||
| This is wag the dog, right? | ||
| This is wag the dog. | ||
| And not just that. | ||
| You guys blame Trump? | ||
| Trump is a rock of stability compared to the clown show that we're seeing. | ||
| And it was just added. | ||
| Richard Engler, live from Kiev. | ||
| Just said it's all lies. | ||
| Restaurants are open. | ||
| Nothing going on. | ||
| The guy's going, let's go have some family barbecues. | ||
| This is not London during the Blitz. | ||
| This is not Paris when they're at Verdun. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| This is not coming through the Maginot Line. | ||
| It's totally 100% phony. | ||
| And let me tell you something else. | ||
| We're not going to war in Ukraine and you're not going to send one deplorable's kid, not one son or daughter of a deplorable is going to go to Ukraine with this crap that even the people in Kiev are belly laughing, they're laughing at us. | ||
| Just like the cartels are laughing at us on the southern border, the Chinese Communist Party is laughing at us, what do you think Russia and the KGB and all these guys, they're laughing at you. | ||
| You're not serious people. | ||
| The guy, their chief foreign correspondent sitting there going, the restaurants are open, the bars are open, the only people talking about it are the foreign press. | ||
| The foreign press. | ||
| His quote, it is barely getting a mention. | ||
| And Chuck Todd sitting there, you know, with the goofball look he's got. | ||
| By the way, Chuck, you gotta get rid of the... | ||
| The Carmelite Monk Comfort Forward or whatever that thing is. | ||
| You've got to redo that, dude. | ||
| Get a wig or something. | ||
| Talk to Joanne Reed and borrow one of the wigs, okay? | ||
| I want to go to now Steve Cortez. | ||
| Cortez, am I too hard on these guys? | ||
| All they've got to talk about is sick. | ||
| Here's what I want them to do. | ||
| They run on 6 January, the end of democracy, Ukraine, and mandates. | ||
| That's your platform. | ||
| That's your platform for this midterm. | ||
| Let us run on what we're going to run on. | ||
| We'll see you on November 8th. | ||
| And by the way, it won't be a 100-seat pickup. | ||
| It'll be a 200-seat pickup. | ||
| Cortez. | ||
| Amen, Steve. | ||
| Yeah, let them run on that nonsense. | ||
| We're going to run on the two I's, on inflation and immigration, things that actually matter to the lives of real Americans, where they actually have a serious interest, not some pretend national interest over in Ukraine. | ||
| You know, the ruling class, though, Steve, they always love war because it rewards the credentialed crony elites. | ||
| They don't send their sons and daughters to die in those foreign interventionist wars. | ||
| And in this case, They are literally grasping for a diversion. | ||
| And I don't blame them in a sense that they want a diversion because they do not want to focus on what is going on right now in the United States, particularly as it relates to the economy. | ||
| And it is frankly nothing short of economic misery. | ||
| We are in a place of economic malaise. | ||
| Joe Biden took an incredible handoff. | ||
| Wonderful baton pass on the economy that he got from Donald Trump. | ||
| And in just a year's time, he has completely squandered it. | ||
| And inflation is out of control. | ||
| It is starting to roil financial markets. | ||
| Today was a miserable day for the Nasdaq. | ||
| It got walloped 2% just today. | ||
| It is now 13% off of its highs. | ||
| Which it touched right around Thanksgiving. | ||
| So we're talking only weeks ago, there was really a lot of tremendous enthusiasm. | ||
| You might say too much enthusiasm in equity markets. | ||
| But as the day had awakened, we've talked a lot on this show, Steve, about stagflation, about the ugliness of decelerating growth with fast rising prices. | ||
| We've been way ahead of the curve on that issue. | ||
| As the economic data now makes that reality obvious to more and more people, including to Wall Street, We're seeing a whole lot of angst and a whole lot of volatility out there from working class people who are just trying to make a living all the way to the titans of high finance. | ||
| Okay, here's what I want to do, though. | ||
| I want to take a second. | ||
| That was the Navarro-Cortez call. | ||
| And this is why hedge funds watch this show all the time. | ||
| That was the Cortez-Navarro call back around December 10th and 11th, right? | ||
| They were hitting the top, and the underlying economy was going to be reflected in markets. | ||
| But I want to go the reverse way now, Steve. | ||
| We've got a couple of minutes in this segment. | ||
| Markets now are picking up signals. | ||
| Right. | ||
| What are markets? | ||
| What are the markets saying? | ||
| You guys made the call on the fundamental underlying situation with the economy and how it's going to we're reaching a top. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And there is going to be a big sell off. | ||
| Tech was going to take it on the chin. | ||
| Now markets are signaling to us. | ||
| What are the markets telling you, Steve Cortez, and what is important to this audience? | ||
| The markets are awakening to the 1970s style reality. | ||
| Of a massive deceleration in growth that is unfortunately combined with a surge in prices. | ||
| Charts along that I'd like to show because I think this will best reflect particularly for those who are watching rather than just listening. | ||
| It will best reflect what I'm talking about. | ||
| And the first one, let's take a look at the NASDAQ. | ||
| Now, just to show you, as I mentioned, by the way, look at that chart. | ||
| That's a six-month chart. | ||
| We are right on top of the lows from last summer, late last summer, August into early September at 350. | ||
| We've come down a long way extremely quickly. | ||
| That's only a six-month chart. | ||
| As I mentioned, we're almost 14% Off of those highs in Wall Street parlance, a 10% move is a correction, a 20% move, which we have another week like this one, we're going to be there, is an actual bear market. | ||
| Now why? | ||
| If we go to the next chart, which is on the savings rate in the United States. | ||
| So this is the on the ground reality. | ||
| Let's forget about Wall Street for a second. | ||
| Let's get to the actual savings rate of what are Americans doing? | ||
| What are they able to save right now? | ||
| I think it's important to look at this history because what Joe Biden did when he came into office, was he tried to pour capital all over this economy, an economy, by the way, that wasn't in need of more capital. | ||
| There wasn't a lot of credit or loan demand out there. | ||
| What did he do? | ||
| He stoked an enormous amount of inflation rather than real growth. | ||
| So if we look at, do we have that chart, folks, of the savings rate? | ||
|
unidentified
|
If we look at that chart, there we go. | |
| If we look at that chart, now that is going back five years. | ||
| That is the personal savings rate for America. | ||
| That shaded area there is the recession into the lockdowns of spring of 2020. | ||
| Not surprisingly, the savings rate exploded right before the CCP virus ravaged the global economy. | ||
| The savings rate in the United States was a strong 8%. | ||
| It was doing great under Donald Trump because of income gains that were very real. | ||
| It soared all the way to 34%. | ||
| Very unnatural, very unhealthy, actually, in a lot of ways, because, let's face it, people were locked at home. | ||
| They were basically forced to save, then started to come back to a more normal trajectory. | ||
| Joe Biden takes office. | ||
| He and Nancy and Chuck go on a borrowing and spending spree. | ||
| They artificially jack that number up again and get it all the way up to 27%. | ||
| You want to continue after the break? | ||
| Hang on, hang on. | ||
| Hold it. | ||
| Yeah, just put a pin in it. | ||
| We're going to come right back. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is important. | |
| Tied back all to the real economy. | ||
| Be back with Cortez in a moment. | ||

War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| With Stephen K. Banham. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | |
| War Room. | ||
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Well the virus... | ||
| Okay, we're back here. | ||
| We've had a slight technical problem. | ||
| We're going to try to get it all worked out. | ||
| Remember, it's like six degrees today. | ||
| The March for Life is just is just finishing. | ||
| So I want to make sure everybody we're trying to get all this sorted out. | ||
| Bitterly cold here in Washington, D.C. | ||
| I think it's five degrees. | ||
| We're going to get back to Steve Cortez. | ||
| I want to make sure everybody goes to MyPillow.com promo code war room. | ||
| That's MyPillow.com promo code war room. | ||
| A couple things happening over there. | ||
| Number one, the annual bedding sale. | ||
| You get 50% off of everything associated with bedding. | ||
| You get the toppers, the mattresses, the sheets, the pillows, everything you need for a good night's sleep. | ||
| And if you're manning ramparts, you need a great night's sleep. | ||
| So make sure you go to MyPillow.com, promo code WARREN. | ||

| You don't see overstocks a lot with Mike Lindell because they run a pretty tight ship. | ||
| Up to 50% off the overstocks. | ||
| So go to MyPillow.com. | ||
| You go to MyPillow.com. | ||
| Promo code war room and and you'll get it all. | ||
| Okay, we're gonna get Cortez back here in a minute I want to just go through what's going on. | ||
| There is we're finishing the March for life Right now that is finishing massive crowds every day in bitter cold people should understand This is why it's so important for our coalition. | ||
| Is that these are all do we have Cortez up? | ||
| Okay, these are all young people, right? | ||
| In addition, starting tomorrow from 10 to noon, we're going to do pregame. | ||
| We're going to be breaking news all day, but we got pregame on this massive anti-mandate march that's going to include, that's going to be here. | ||
| We heard Haley Jackson and the people, Holly Jackson and people talking about it at MSNBC. | ||
| We're the same with the anti-vaxxers, not anti-vaxxers, anti-mandates. | ||
| And I'll tell you something that doesn't believe in mandates. | ||
| It's a federal judge down in Texas blew up the Biden administration's mandate for federal workers. | ||
| So the Supreme Court didn't take care of it. | ||
| This federal judge did. | ||
| OK, so that's now on hiatus. | ||
| And there's going to be a who's who. | ||
| Dr. Robert Malone. | ||
| He's going to co-host the show in its entirety tomorrow here. | ||
| We've got a whole raft of the top speakers coming on. | ||
| In fact, later in the show, we're going to have Tony Lyons at Skyhorse Press, who published the Tony Fauci book of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. | ||
| OK, Steve, I want to go back to you. | ||
| Why we've got you, and here's the reason, is that you're making this incredible point about the savings rate. | ||
| Remember, the savings rate, 8%. | ||
| That was because Trump was putting, with no inflation, in real wage increases, the greatest wage increases we've really had in the history of the country, For blue-collar and non-college graduates, people, even with low interest rates, had the ability to put some cash in the bank, right? | ||
| They weren't getting a lot of return on it, but had the actual cash get in the bank. | ||
| So walk us through what that savings rate shows us about people, and this ties to not just the inflation rate, but also the consumer confidence, which is tanking as quickly as the stock market. | ||
| Steve Cortes. | ||
| Yes, it absolutely is, and that's because, Steve, We know from polling, and this is polling from The Economist, not from some right-wing organization, only 18%, a paltry 18% of Americans report that they are financially better off now than they were a year ago when Joe Biden took office. | ||
| So that's a stunningly low figure, and it's going to add even lower than that. | ||
| And by the way, that's the overall number for working-class folks. | ||
| It's even lower still. | ||
| White women, for example, who don't hold a degree are only 13% saying they are better off. | ||
| Hispanics, only 9%. | ||
| Say they are better off than a year ago. | ||
| So you're right. | ||
| There's a crisis of confidence in this country. | ||
| And one of the reasons is people see that their savings are flying out the door. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because of inflation. | ||
| So, you know, on that chart that we showed regarding the savings rate, it was artificially jacked up because of the pandemic. | ||
| That was not a good thing for the country. | ||
| That wasn't the good kind of savings. | ||
| It was done then a second time. | ||
| It was elevated because Joe Biden and Chuck and Nancy unfortunately got together And in the summer of 2021, basically paid Americans to not work. | ||
| Also slapped unscientific and illegal vaccine mandates upon people to not work. | ||
| That jacked up a savings rate very temporarily. | ||
| But here's the thing, Steve. | ||
| That sugar high is now gone, and the savings rate is now all the way down to 7%. | ||
| It's below where it was before we had ever heard of the CCP virus. | ||
| We have given up all of those savings gains, and the trend is decidedly lower. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Primarily because of inflation, because inflation is eating up the resources of Americans. | ||
| We've had 10 straight months now of real wages going down under Joe Biden, meaning people are going to work, but they're losing ground literally every month. | ||
| Even if their pay is increasing, it's not increasing enough, Steve, to compensate for the massive rise in prices. | ||
| Regarding that rise in prices, let me show you a real-world example of that, because I think this is another market that's worth looking at. | ||
| Last chart I'll subject the audience to, and this one is on corn. | ||
| And if we look at corn prices, something very simple, very basic, simple commodity. | ||
| Corn prices have been soaring, and the chart shows The last six months on corn, we just hit a six month high today. | ||
| Corn prices well over $6 a bushel, $6.18 to be precise, a bushel. | ||
| And that is off of the lows of just a few months ago, which were just above $5 a bushel. | ||
| When Joe Biden was elected, if we can use that term loosely, on November 3rd of 2020, Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. | ||
| Let's hit the tape on that again. | ||
| When Joe Biden, the illegitimate regime, stole the election. | ||
| But keep going. | ||
| I digress. | ||
| Keep going. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Correct. | |
| When he artificially prevailed on November 3rd. | ||
| Hey, hey, hey, hey, brother, you're not on Newsmax anymore. | ||
| You're here. | ||
| You're in a comfort zone, okay? | ||
| You're in a safe space, right? | ||
| When he stole it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It was only, corn was only $4 a bushel. | |
| So it has increased 50% from, and by the way, this is, I could throw almost any physical commodity on the board and you would see a similar trajectory of these commodities rising. | ||
| And it's not because demand is so strong. | ||
| We just got a terrible jobs report out. | ||
| It was a miserable disappointment that November, or excuse me, the December jobs number, less than half of expectations. | ||
| So when we put all these numbers together, Steve, what does it tell us? | ||
| It tells us there's a crisis of confidence right now. | ||
| In the United States, we have an inflationary spiral, something that hasn't happened in this country in more than a generation. | ||
| Young people have never seen this happen. | ||
| And here's the important political and policy takeaway, Steve. | ||
| It is. | ||
| It is created. | ||
| It is because of Joe Biden's policies. | ||
| This is not bad luck. | ||
| These aren't just circumstances. | ||
| This isn't just the business cycle. | ||
| What's going on now is incredibly unusual. | ||
| It's something we haven't seen in four decades in this country. | ||
| It happened with a swiftness. | ||
| Now, I believe this would happen. | ||
| Peter Navarro believed it would happen. | ||
| I didn't even as pessimistic as I was, Steve. | ||
| I didn't think it would happen this fast. | ||
| I really didn't. | ||
| I didn't know that Sleepy would cause this much damage this quickly, but he has. | ||
| Here's where I'm proud of this show and who we put on here, because you look at all the business TV channels, they've been having the pom-poms out. | ||
| Transitory inflation, these guys called first off stagflation on day one. | ||
| Number two, they said this inflation back in the spring, not transitory, it's worse, and with the American Recovery Act, it's going to be permanent, it's going to be bad, okay? | ||
| It's going to get out of control. | ||
| Then, Jim the Clown Kramer. | ||
| On the same couple days, he's talking about setting up FEMA camps that you're going to have. | ||
| Everybody that's not vaccinated is going to be put away. | ||
| He's got the pom-poms out. | ||
| He says it's the greatest economy of his time. | ||
| He literally said this a couple weeks ago. | ||
| The single greatest economy of his time. | ||
| And I want to go back to what this clown, and I don't even know how he's on, and forget Business Network. | ||
| I don't know how these guys are even on YouTube. | ||
| He's a mass extinction problem for your capital, for your cash, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| He says it's the greatest economy of his time. | ||
| Explain, in the couple minutes we've got left, this is very important, what is a correction versus what's a bear market? | ||
| These clowns on the business channels have had the pom-poms out for Biden and we've blown through a correction. | ||
| We're almost in a bear market in a couple of weeks from when Jim Cramer said, the greatest economy in his lifetime. | ||
| Steve Cortez. | ||
| Steve, it shows you what a bubble These charlatans reside in, and that is the reality. | ||
| These people who only know New York newsrooms or Washington, D.C. | ||
| K Street lobbyist offices. | ||
| Yes, for them, things have been great. | ||
| And by the way, an inflationary environment might actually be great. | ||
| For a lot of them, but it's terrible for most Americans. | ||
| It's terrible, especially for working-class Americans. | ||
| By the way, regarding this, so a correction in Wall Street parlance, a correction is 10% from any peak. | ||
| We've already exceeded that by quite a lot, actually, today on the Nasdaq. | ||
| So we are in a correction. | ||
| A bear market is 14%. | ||
| By the way, we're down 14% on that, so we're past the correction, right? | ||
| Past correction, 20% in Wall Street tradition, down 20% defines a bear market. | ||
| Let me, by the way, caution about this too. | ||
| The Nasdaq, although it's gotten most of the attention this week because it's gotten hit the hardest this week, the weakest index in recent weeks, and this is actually worse news for Main Street, has actually been the Russell 2000. | ||
| So the Nasdaq is very much dominated by the big tech behemoths, by Apple and Google and Microsoft. | ||
| That's the truth. | ||
| to | ||
| it up a bit. | ||
| Real quickly on the commodity, you were the first guy to say, hey Steve, well what this guy's doing, oil's gonna blow through $100 a barrel quickly. | ||
| Your thoughts on it, because once that goes, I think it's $85 right now, once that goes, it's Katy, bar the door. | ||
| Listen, declaring war on American energy, on domestic energy production, on pipelines and fracking, at the same time that you're spending and borrowing an absolutely gargantuan amount, is an inflationary nightmare. | ||
| That's what he has created, and all commodities are in Absolute inflationary soaring markets right now, but the worst of all, the most poisonous of all, is energy. | ||
| What he's done there is unforgivable. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We're going to come back in a second. | ||
| We've got John Lott. | ||
| We've got people from the march. | ||
| Cortez is going to stay with me. | ||
| Remember, they're still doing quantitative easing. | ||
| They haven't done this tightening yet. | ||
| They're still putting gasoline on the dumpster fire of inflation, the unfair tax of working class. | ||
| We'll be back in a moment with a lineup that includes Steve Cortez. | ||

I've always liked, if only we're brave enough to see it, if only we're brave enough to be it. | |
| If only we're brave enough. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Brave enough to live through two of the most difficult years many of us can remember. | |
| Brave enough to pull ourselves up again and again. | ||
| America is the home of the brave. | ||
| It's why we keep getting up, no matter how many times we get knocked down. | ||
| Like with our economy. | ||
| It isn't all the way back, but it's getting stronger. | ||
|

|
We may be entering year three of a pandemic... Okay, okay. | |
| I've heard enough. | ||
| I've heard enough of this. | ||
| Remember, you gotta remember, in Hollywood, actors are furniture. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay? | |
| And this guy plays, wants to be the greatest generation. | ||
| He's full of crap. | ||
| And to prove it, I brought in Steve Cortez. | ||
| The, uh, the, uh, the, the boxer slash... Were you defensive lineman or linebacker at Georgetown, uh, Cortez? | ||
| back or do you lie my whole my whole football career? | ||
| So you're a brawler. I want you to go to Tom Hanks, brother. | ||
| Yeah, regarding Tom Hanks, it would really be nice for America, actually, if he would get lost in that desert island again, with his volleyball Wilson. | ||
| I think that would be better for the country. | ||
| But I'm going to channel a little bit of Laura Ingraham talking to athletes. | ||
| I'm going to say to Tom Hanks, you know what? | ||
| Shut up and dribble, okay? | ||
| Stay in your lane. | ||
| You are an actor, and this economy has worked magnificently well for you, but it's misery for working class people. | ||
| That's not always my opinion. | ||
| Let me give you some data points. | ||
| On that, Steve. | ||
| Poll from Axios. | ||
| Again, not a right-wing organization. | ||
| Poll from Axios. | ||
| They asked people a year ago, and they ask them now. | ||
| Are you concerned about the year ahead? | ||
| Are you fearful? | ||
| Among Democrats, one year ago, as Joe Biden was taking office, not surprisingly, they were very enthusiastic. | ||
| Only 19% of Democrats said they were fearful about the year ahead. | ||
| That number has now jumped after one year of the Democrats controlling everything, right? | ||
| Not just in government, everything really in our society, every significant institution. | ||
| That number went from only 19% being fearful to 45% being fearful. | ||
| It more than doubled in a year's time with the Democrats in power of every institution in this country. | ||
| Let me give you a couple of other polls. | ||
| CBS poll asked about Biden's approval on inflation. | ||
| 70% disapproval. | ||
| So Tom Hanks has no idea what working class people are dealing with right now. | ||
| 70% of Americans. | ||
| Disapprove of what Joe Biden is doing regarding inflation. | ||
| That number, by the way, is only going to climb. | ||
| Let me give you another interesting stat. | ||
| Amazon, which is not a company that I have any regard for, and I'm never going to shed any tears for Jeff Bezos getting less rich, but Amazon, because I think this is telling regarding the consumer and the situation the consumer is in right now, Amazon was smacked this week. | ||
| As a matter of fact, its stock had its worst week Since 2018. | ||
| So yet another data point about how weak the consumer is. | ||
| But we put all that together. | ||
| It tells us Jim Cramer. | ||
| OK, Jim Cramer at CNBC, who should know better. | ||
| But Jim Cramer and Tom Hanks, they are charlatans. | ||
| They are blinded to the reality that Americans face right now. | ||
| And they can't see past their own personal narratives, to be honest, about what's happening in this country. | ||
| Netflix shed $50 billion in market cap. | ||
| Twitter's down since Getter Can't. | ||
| Hey, couldn't happen to a bunch of better guys. | ||
| Here's the beauty of it. | ||
| All you employees at Netflix, your options are worth zero. | ||
| So hell with you. | ||
| All you clowns at Twitter, your options are worth zero. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Zero. | ||
| This is what I love. | ||
| And Tom Hanks, call your agent. | ||
| I'm sure your earnings from all these companies are going to be way down because nothing's selling. | ||
| And your last thing, I think, went directly to video. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Enough on Tom Hanks. | ||
| But this, I get these pompous actor clowns coming here. | ||
| Oh, the economy's getting better. | ||
| No, it's not getting better for you because you're elitist. | ||
| Right? | ||
| You're an elitist. | ||
| Not for working class people you're supposed to care so much about. | ||
| Oh, but we can solve it with Bill Beck better. | ||
| To hell with you guys. | ||
| Okay, new day coming. | ||
| I want to go. | ||
| Yeah, go ahead. | ||
| To that point, to that point on the elitist, by the way, I'm so glad that you played it at the opening of the show. | ||
| That terrible tape of a of a current day Marie Antoinette At the Davos meeting that's going on right now in UAE. | ||
| It's sort of an offshoot meeting about this big new book from Klaus Schwab, The Great Narrative, which is the sequel to The Great Reset, where she said, hey, the great news is we elites, we all like each other, we all trust each other. | ||
| And she even used the term elite to describe herself and her comrades, which in and of itself is pretty sickening. | ||
| But she's like, but the bad news is regular working-class people, they increasingly don't trust the elites. | ||
| Gee, I wonder why, as you sit in Dubai lecturing the world, okay, about the misery that they're enduring by a system that you have created for your own self-aggrandizement. | ||
| Yeah, the people don't trust you. | ||
| Not overseas, certainly not here in the United States. | ||
| Tom Hanks, suck on that. | ||
| Let's bring in Anonaly. | ||
| Let's bring in Abby Johnson now. | ||
| She just left the march after freezing. | ||
| Abby, give us a summary. | ||
| How was today in the bitter cold with all the young people there? | ||
| Give us a summary of what happened at the March for Life. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know, everything was great today. | |
| There was a lot of great energy at the March for Life. | ||
| I mean, this could be the last march where Roe is actually the law of the land. | ||
| So, there was really great energy today at the march, and people are really feeling optimistic. | ||
| The Biden administration, though, has doubled down trying to support this stuff everywhere. | ||
| The battle with Roe is in the courts now, the Supreme Court. | ||
| What is the next big fight for the March for Life, particularly for these younger people? | ||
| Where do you see that battlefront opening up? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I mean, if Roe is a return to force, then we're going back to the states, right? | |
| So now we're at a state sort of battleground level, state by state. | ||
| Um, I mean, I think it would be foolish for us to think that people like George Soros and Warren Buffett aren't going to start just a massive infusion of cash into these red states trying to fund Democratic gubernatorial races, um, congressional races, you know, trying to get their people in office. | ||
| So, I mean, it, you know, red states aren't going to be safe. | ||
| We're not safe right now. | ||
| Um, but we're going to keep fighting. | ||
| We're going to have a, you know, 50-50 fight. | ||
| But it's better to be at the state level. | ||
| This is where it should have stayed in the first place. | ||
| Amen. | ||
| Amen. | ||
| How can people get to you? | ||
| How can, like I said, we're going to have John Lott on here about elections and what's really going on with these statewide laws. | ||
| How can people get to you? | ||
| Because I keep telling people, this fight's really just started. | ||
| They're going to hopefully overturn Roe, but man, Soros and those guys are coming in harder than they've ever come, particularly in the red states. | ||
| How can people get access to you, Abby? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, easy. | |
| I'm super accessible. | ||
| They can go to my website, abbyj.com. | ||
| There's a contact link. | ||
| It comes straight to me. | ||
| Abby, thank you for taking time. | ||
| I know you're heading out of town, so thank you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Of course, thanks. | |
| One of the great ones. | ||
| Thanks. | ||
| Let's go to John Lott now. | ||
| John Lott, you know, is one of the great Second Amendment guys, one of the great about freedom and guns, more guns, less crime. | ||
| One of the seminal works made the liberals' heads blow up because he had all the stats. | ||
| This guy comes out with numbers. | ||
| John, you've made a great point to me over the last couple of days. | ||
| I think the Republicans are missing the messaging on this whole thing about voting rights and about democracy, everything. | ||
| Walk us through your thesis. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, you go listen to the news, go watch even Fox News, and they're constantly repeating the phrase that the different types of reforms that the Republicans are pushing in different states is voter suppression, and that the Democrats want to make sure that people are going to be able to vote. | |
| They're not going through and talking about what's actually in these two bills that the Democrats have been trying to get through the last week in the Senate. | ||
| They're going to Go and essentially get rid of voter IDs. | ||
| Make it so that you can have ballot boxes that are unattended. | ||
| Permanently make it so that we have mail-in voting. | ||
| And to me, you know, the rhetoric that Biden and others have used where Biden's compared Republicans to Bull Connor or to Jefferson Davis or George Wallace and that they're anti-democratic and the Republicans are totalitarian. | ||
| Really, I think you need some perspective, because if what the Republicans want in terms of voter ID, so in Georgia, the big thing they've gotten the Democrats upset is that on the absentee ballots, you'll have to put down, let's say, the last four digits of your social security number. | ||
| Every American has a social security number. | ||
| Even many non-Americans have social security numbers. | ||
| In Texas, the thing that got the Democrats to walk out in the statehouse there and try to stop any votes was that Harris County had allowed ballot boxes to be left out 24 hours a day with nobody watching them. | ||
| And the Republicans said, OK, well, you can have the ballot boxes out between 6 a.m. | ||
| and 10 p.m., but you have to have somebody monitor them. | ||
| Well, the point I was making to you is that If those basic reforms that the Republicans want, some type of ID number on absentee ballots or having a chain of custody with regard to ballot boxes is anti-democratic or totalitarian, then all the countries in Europe are totalitarian. | ||
| Sweden, France must be totalitarian because all 47 countries in Europe are having now voter IDs for people to be able to vote. | ||
| It was 46 and a half up until very recently, but England is changing its laws. | ||
| And you know, you take something like absentee ballots. | ||
| People have no idea the restrictions in the rest of the world. | ||
| 75% of the countries in Europe ban absentee ballots for people living in their country, completely ban them. | ||
| Another 20% of countries allow absentee ballots, but you have to have a government issued photo ID to go and pick it up. | ||
| They will not send the absentee ballot to you in the mail. | ||
| And, you know, no state in the United States is even talking about the types of rules or restrictions that you see in 95% of Europe. | ||
| Look at Canada or Mexico, our neighbors. | ||
| Both require government-issued photo IDs to be able to go and vote. | ||
| In Mexico, they also have a thumbprint that's on there, and they ban absentee ballots for people living in the country. | ||
| One of the things with all this discussion about voter suppression, in 1992, Mexico instituted government-issued photo IDs for people to be able to go and vote. | ||
| And they also banned absentee ballots. | ||
| And not only on top of that, they required that you had to go in person to go and register to vote and get your ID and then go back a second time to pick it up. | ||
| In virtually all the Mexican states, there's only one place In those states to go and do that, so you may have to travel 75 miles. | ||
| So you think all these restrictions voter participation should have plummeted, right? | ||
| But in fact, what you found was that in the 3 presidential elections prior to 92, the average voter turnout was 58%. | ||
| in the three presidential elections after 1992, it was 68 percent. So it went up. And that's because people had more confidence that their votes mattered. Here's where we also have confidence is that we're going to be counting the votes. You know, they said it's a red alert, a code red for the United States today because Steve Bannon's got all these guys. | ||
| People are going and winning at these county levels. | ||
| They're volunteering. | ||
| They're taking training. | ||
| They're going to be poll watchers, but more importantly, they're going to be inside the room as election officials, not just watching the polls. | ||
| They're going to be in supervising the counts. | ||
| We don't care if you like it or not. | ||
| We're winning those elections right now at the county level. | ||
| People are volunteering. | ||
| They're going to be in the room. | ||
| They're going to be in the room supervising the count to make sure you can't steal the election. | ||
| Let me make sure that all little Jamie Raskin, Benny Thompson, Shifty Schiff, Swalwell, the traitor that slept with the Chinese communist spy, all of you guys, and the whole cast of characters in mainstream media, Trump won. | ||
| Biden's illegitimate, and that's one of the reasons we bled him out and killed his regime in the crib in one year, and yes, it's done. | ||
| It's over. | ||
| Stick a fork in it. | ||
| Everybody knows it. | ||
| You can run around the Ukraine all you want. | ||
| Even the people of Ukraine are bored with you. | ||

| Okay, I want to go to another Hey Steve, thanks for having me back on. | ||
| I think the main thing for your listening audience is for them to be able to effectively communicate to their spheres of influence two particular things. | ||
| hangs in the balance with the Supreme Court on Roe v. Wade. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hey, Steve, thanks for having me back on. | |
| I think the main thing for your listening audience is for them to be able to effectively communicate to their spheres of influence two particular things. | ||
| When, God willing, the Supreme Court hands down the Dobbs decision, it's basically effectively overturning the Roe v. Wade decision. | ||
| That does not mean that abortion is now illegal in 50 states. | ||
| All that means is that this issue, which was stolen by the Supreme Court justices back in 1973, is finally returned Back to where it was supposed to be. | ||
| Back to the states, the state legislatures, back to the people. | ||
| All this means, Steve, is that if the Dobbs case overturns Roe v. Wade, you're gonna have, exactly how it should be, great, fiery debate in all 50 state legislatures. | ||
| Let the people decide if slaughtering babies in the womb is okay with them. | ||
| That's what the Dobbs case is all about. | ||
| The second thing, and I think it's very important for your listening audience, because we're all about action, action, action. | ||
| You must feel equipped to be able to comfortably communicate this with people. | ||
| Number two, everybody needs to know who Who was Dr. Bernard Nathanson, what he did, and who he became. | ||
| He was a father of America's industry of abortion. | ||
| He co-founded NARAL Pro-Choice America, and he trained Planned Parenthood doctors on how to kill. | ||
| And then, with the advent of real-time ultrasound, check this out, the father of America's industry of abortion became 100% unequivocally pro-life. | ||
| And this is what he wrote. | ||
| In his never-seen-before resignation letter, which I think I'm the only one in America who has a copy of it, and it ends with this. | ||
| This is his resignation letter, Steve, to NARAL Pro-Choice America, the PAC that was well-funded, as it still is today, which fought to get abortion legalized in all 50 states. | ||
| He wrote this after he had become pro-life. | ||
| He wrote this, the judgments of the Supreme Court We're never meant to be infallible or eternal. | ||
| And what if we've been wrong? | ||
| If the court should soon reverse itself in light of changing times and or new scientific evidence, yet what an incalculable injustice will have been perpetrated and what an immeasurable, irretrievable loss will have been suffered. | ||
| The annual dues to NARAL are $10 a year and the hubris, the arrogance of certainty, and I can no longer afford those dues. | ||
| This is what America needs to know. | ||
| We'll get all that out, and we'll get your social media. | ||
| We've got to bounce. | ||
| Terry Beatley, thank you for being at the March Day. | ||
| Thank you for coming on. | ||
| We're going to get all that in here as this thing gets to the Mississippi case. | ||
| Thank you, ma'am. | ||
| Tony Lyons is the publisher, the head of Skyhorse Press. | ||
| They put out the real Tony Fauci. | ||
| This book's a blockbuster. | ||
| You wouldn't know it by looking at the New York Times. | ||
| A blockbuster epic. | ||
| Yeah, so here's the cover of the book. | ||
| I mean, this is an incredible book. | ||
| It's an indictment of corruption at the highest levels of government. | ||
| this rally on Sunday is going to be huge. Tony, real quick, you only got a couple of minutes. | ||
| How are they trying to suppress this book, which is a blockbuster and everybody's got to read? | ||
| Yeah, so here's the cover of the book. I mean, this is an incredible book. It's an indictment of corruption at the highest levels of government. This is a book that's been censored at every conceivable level, from bookstores boycotting it, from the New York Times not letting us run advertisements, big tech platforms stifling any kind of dissent, taking down advertisements. | ||
| So, you know, this is a book that big corporate pharmaceutical companies don't want you to read. | ||
| Dr. Fauci doesn't want you. | ||
| And with all of this censorship that requires Robert F. Kennedy Jr. | ||
| and people like him to go to rallies like this. | ||
| To talk directly to people because there's no other way to do it. | ||
| It's so hard to get through to people with all this incredible censorship. | ||
| And what these people say is, they claim the book is misinformation. | ||
| Yeah, that's a question I got. | ||
| We're gonna be back on tomorrow. | ||
| We got Robert Malone here from 10 to noon. | ||
| This is gonna be on fire. | ||
| Real quickly, have you been sued by the pharmaceutical companies or has Tony Fauci sued you or anything in this book about this book, Tony Lyons? | ||
| No, they would never sue. | ||
| I don't believe they would sue, because I believe that they're trying to stifle the information that's in this book. | ||
| So, if they sue, if they come out and they disagree strongly, then they have to talk about what the actual claims of corruption are, and they're trying to avoid that at all costs. | ||
| Tony, real quickly, how do people get to you? | ||
| How do they get to Sky Horse, and how do they order this book? | ||
| So the company website is skyhorsepublishing.com and the best way to order the book is on Amazon because unfortunately it's been censored in so many other places. | ||
| Okay, we're going to try to get rid of your attorney lines. | ||
| You're a patriot and a hero. | ||
| Cortez, how do people follow you? | ||
| Your economic analysis is the best. | ||
| If Jim Cramer tells you to do something with your money, do the exact opposite, and you're going to do quite well. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| That's basically right. | ||
| Remember, by the way, remember he told us back in 2008 that everything was fine with Bear Stearns. | ||
| So just remember that in terms of track record. | ||
| Please find me at Getter. | ||
| I'm at Steve, very simple. | ||
