Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? | |
Unbroken brothers let us bring To the mansions of the Lord | ||
No more weeping, no more sighing No breath bleeding through the night. | ||
Okay. | ||
Oh. | ||
Welcome. | ||
unidentified
|
It is Wednesday, the 25th of May, the year of our Lord, 2022. | |
We are kicking off our Memorial Day Week commemoration. | ||
As everybody knows, it's Follow this show for a while. | ||
We always do Memorial Day specials. | ||
We will have one on Saturday and then all day Monday throughout the day. | ||
Be breaking news and bringing you all everything that's happening, but we'll do it around. | ||
An appropriate commemoration of the highest civic Holiday, right? | ||
It's not a holiday, it's a commemoration for the war dead. | ||
We were going to start with Ben Harnwell, who runs the International Bureau of Rome. | ||
He is actually at the National Military Cemetery outside of Rome for the Italian-Sicily campaign in the Second World War. | ||
As soon as Ben gets set up, we're going to go live to Ben Harnwell. | ||
But we're going to start We're going to go to Geneva, and we've got Nora Bin Laden who's been so kind to change her schedule up to do this for us, and of course Jack Posovic who has come from Davos to Geneva. | ||
But today, given what we're commemorating, and to kind of set the stage for everything that's happening and tie it all together, Noor has been smart enough and with enough foresight to actually take us to where kind of the war to end all wars Was was put together and that is in Geneva outside the what was the League of Nations and I guess Wilson Palace Let's go to Geneva. | ||
We have Noor bin Laden and Jack Posovic. | ||
By the way, we're gonna get to a lot of Newsday. | ||
We got Georgia We've got everything that's going on But I want to make sure that we can frame this so that people get the signal and not the noise Noor bin Laden You're a native of Geneva. | ||
Where are we and why did you choose this spot? | ||
standing right in front of Panekusan, which as I mentioned on Monday is the headquarters, the first headquarters of the League of Nations, the predecessor of the United Nations, the first real globalist institution that was set up by the globalists in the early 20th century. | ||
And I thought it was appropriate to bring Jack here for us to do the show with you. | ||
What, Nora, put us, that is called, as you and Jack and I talked in kind of the pre-tape or the pre-show, that's Wilson Plaza, but it's all called Wilson. | ||
Tell us how big a deal was Woodrow Wilson and really the peace treaty that they thought they came up with after the armistice to end the war and really to set up what they thought was going to be the beginning of the basis for a world government. | ||
Now, as I mentioned on Monday, you know, these plans that we're seeing come to its final stages right here in 2022 were set up long before we were born, over a century ago. | ||
And you had a whole gang or the cabal of the early 20th century that were already working hard towards instoring this new world order, this world government. | ||
Whereby nations would lose their sovereignty in favour of a supranational infrastructure, and the League of Nations was really the first attempt at this, and Woodrow Wilson was in fact the front man | ||
Of this effort, you know, we can go back to the 1920s and also pre-world war one and the different forces or infiltration and The US government at that time notably, you know people like Colonel Mander Mandel house and the first set of globalists back then a lot of them of British descent and President Wilson happily joined and | ||
promoted very much this idea of a new world order and of an international league that would, in effect, supersede national sovereignty. | ||
There's a lot of debate of who is the worst president in U.S. | ||
history, and I would say that Rupert Wilson is definitely up there in terms of those presidents that subverted the U.S. | ||
Constitution and actually Before I go to Jack, one more thing is that as we're going to commemorate about World War I and World War II, Europe was traumatized by World War I. The fighting, the mechanized fighting, it was so much, technology was so much more advanced than strategy or tactics. | ||
It was really, particularly the Western Front was a slaughter pen. | ||
Plus you had The collapse of all these empires, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Russian Empire, essentially the German Empire. | ||
You had the collapse of all this into a new social order, plus at the same time, Europe was traumatized. | ||
So they were, even people who might have not wanted to give up their sovereignty, were looking for solutions because clearly what had led them into that slaughter pen was something they did not want to repeat, correct? | ||
Absolutely. | ||
And it's always, it always seems to be the same playbook. | ||
Steve, you know, there's a crisis, and then there's the response to the crisis. | ||
And if you look back over a century ago, and if you look to today, and especially the last 20 years or so, this is the pattern. | ||
There's a there's a crisis, there's a health emergency. | ||
And somehow we always end up on the other side of the stick, with the erosion of our of our rights and our freedoms. | ||
Okay, I'm gonna go to Jack. | ||
Just remember, there are no conspiracies, but there are also no coincidences. | ||
Where the League of Nations was formed is obviously a big gathering place for all the, for folks, the people, the powers that be in Europe. | ||
But it's where the engine room today of the United Nations is. | ||
People think the United Nations is that beautiful piece of architecture on the Upper East Side of New York with the Grand Hall of the General Assembly and the Security Council and all the drama that comes up with its Iraq or Afghanistan, the current Ukraine war. | ||
But really, the work gets done in all the organizations of the United Nations. | ||
This is where your tax dollars go is not really to pay for New York. | ||
Don't get me wrong. | ||
That's expensive, but that's that's tiny. | ||
That's tip money. | ||
Your money, your tax money goes into these big organizations. | ||
And guess where they are? | ||
They're right there in Geneva. | ||
Geneva's always been a place, that's where the League of Nations was going to be centered out of. | ||
Jack, connect dots here for us about this idealism of Woodrow Wilson, the trauma of the First World War, and how it led to both Davos and today you guys there in the same town where the World Health Organization and World Health Assembly Well, Steve, that's right. | ||
unidentified
|
And so we're here in Geneva, Switzerland. | |
We're standing in front of the original home of the League of Nations that later moved to an organizational building called The Palace of Nations. | ||
And in that Palace of Nations, which was the League of Nations original headquarters, that's where the World Health Assembly right now is holding hearings and is holding sessions and is debating this global pandemic treaty. | ||
So it is the exact same playbook. | ||
It's the DNA of the League of Nations, this Wilsonian DNA and ideology that goes back even far further than Wilson. | ||
It's It comes out of German philosophy, and what it is, is an idea, and Wilson was a full-throated supporter of this, the original progressive era, where he said, we can't look at the U.S. | ||
Constitution anymore as the source of our power, because the Founding Fathers didn't know about Charles Darwin, they didn't know about national selection, they didn't know about evolution, and so therefore we need to come up with a new form of government. | ||
That, you know, works in conjunction with the Constitution, but really forms a permanent administrative layer. | ||
And what he referred to it was the organic state. | ||
So the organic state would be that permanent class, a permanent state that existed outside fractious politics and elected politics. | ||
unidentified
|
They are the ones, the bureaucrats, the people in Geneva, the party of Davos, right? | |
Whoever elected Klaus Schwab to anything. | ||
Whoever elected Dr. Tedros to anything, right? | ||
It is this permanent state that is the fruition of Wilsonian thought. | ||
And he laid all this out and he said it would be better that government should evolve the same way that organisms evolve. | ||
This is Darwinism. | ||
This would be your new creation. | ||
And the Constitution would just become window dressing. | ||
So, Steve, when you understand the writings of Woodrow Wilson and the life of Woodrow Wilson—he ended up in a complete nervous breakdown, by the way, at the end of this, in Modenici—that This has always been their dream, and what Noor just said is exactly correct, that we are seeing the fruition of that with the Great Reset, with Clash Mob. | ||
It's not just economic. | ||
Economics is a huge piece of it, because they want you to be a rushable surf. | ||
They want you to be living in a pod, eating your bugs, eating your nutrient paste. | ||
Ordering your goods from Amazon where a gig worker comes up to you. | ||
You don't have real jobs anymore. | ||
You don't have real relationships. | ||
We're seeing that the latest data that's coming out, the middle class is being destroyed. | ||
The elites are getting richer by the minute. | ||
Zoomers and kids these days, they're not even getting driver's licenses anymore. | ||
Why? | ||
Because where would you drive to, right? | ||
This is exactly what they have been moving towards. | ||
Again, you're going to be a homogenized consumer class of worker drones in order for them to establish Elysium. | ||
And this is also where, of course, and we mentioned before, the metaverse comes in, transhumanism, this is your bread and circuses now. | ||
It's a virtual bread and circuses to distract you from the suffering that goes on all around you. | ||
We are gonna get into, by the way, the economics report out today on the Associated Press about the entire United States of America has flipped. | ||
They said massively in the headlines against any more funding of the Ukraine war. | ||
They're very upset about it now they understand it. | ||
I'm going to take a hat tip for the for the worm to be at the tip of the spear of that. | ||
Also a bunch of articles out about the shrinking middle class barely hanging on We've been shrinking for 40 or 50 years. | ||
Guess why? | ||
Because of globalization. | ||
Before we break for this, I think we've got a couple of minutes. | ||
Noor, here's what I think, particularly for an American audience, and you're the perfect person because you have a perspective of both America and Europe. | ||
It seems like, you know, although there's been populist revolts, etc., that the Europeans, regardless of kind of the political ideology, seem to be The people there won't stand up and fight. | ||
They seem to be easily led. | ||
They're looking for some sort of... Like the aristocracy never left. | ||
It may have left in form, but it didn't leave in substance. | ||
There are fighters, don't get me wrong, and we're so glad to know Nigel Farage. | ||
The people over at Front National, and Zemmour, and of course Salvini, and these great people, you know, AFD, all these, the fighters, the freedom fighters in all the different countries. | ||
But they are, you know, Orban is a leader, but Orban, you know, Hungary, which is great, is still a, it's the size of North Carolina, right? | ||
It's about, what, 10 million people. | ||
So he would be like a governor here in the United States. | ||
We've got a minute, and then we'll hold you through the break. | ||
Why does it seem like the population of Europe is always looking for these type of superstructures to lead or guide them and let them be like serfs? | ||
That's a great question, Stephen. | ||
You're absolutely right. | ||
There are fighters. | ||
This whole episode of, quote, crisis with the pandemic has awakened a lot of people over here in Europe. | ||
There is a very big difference between our countries over here on this side of the Atlantic and the United States of America, and that is the U.S. | ||
Constitution. | ||
And you have something that is so clearly in your DNA, in the DNA of your country and in the DNA of your population. | ||
You have your First Amendment, you have your Second Amendment, both of which must be protected at all costs. | ||
You understand the concept of tyranny and What your founding fathers gifted not only to the United States, but to the rest of the world, is this benchmark of what it means to be a free person. | ||
And this is why people like me look to America and are very much, you know, I have a great love for your country for this reason, especially amongst others. | ||
And people value freedom. | ||
Norah, you and Jack just hang on for a second. | ||
We're going to return to Geneva. | ||
We're also going to go to the Sicily Rome National Military Cemetery outside of Rome with our own Ben Harnwell as we kick off our coverage and commemoration of Immoral Day. | ||
unidentified
|
Let's go. | |
Okay, we're live today. | ||
We're kicking off all week. | ||
We're going to have segments of the show that lead up. | ||
Because Memorial Day needs more than just one day, right? | ||
And remember, it's not Veterans Day. | ||
We're going to have a lot of veterans on here. | ||
Jack Pasova's a veteran. | ||
I'm a veteran. | ||
Captain Bannon's a veteran. | ||
But this is not Veterans Day. | ||
It's the highest civic commemoration we have in this country. | ||
Remember, July 4th, the birthday of the country, the nation's birth, is about these documents, obviously the Declaration of Independence. | ||
But that independence was fought and won. | ||
Remember, the British had already sent a massive, I think the largest expeditionary force in the history of the British Empire had already been sent. | ||
To New York and starting in August, you start to have the General Washington in direct contact with the Howe Brothers, Admiral and General Howe as they had this massive fight in New York, which we'll get into a lot and everything about the Revolution, the Civil War, all of it. | ||
Ben Harnwell is in Rome and he's going to try to set up a shot at the Sicily-Rome National Military Cemetery. | ||
You know, we have military cemeteries throughout Europe with the war dead from World War I and World War II. | ||
Some crosses for the airmen that were lost, but I still think there's 30,000 airmen that have never been recovered from the 8th Air Force in the bombing over Germany and Eastern Europe that was to destroy the military infrastructure. | ||
We are going to get into, we've got time, we've got Cortez, we're going to get into economics, we've got politics, we're going to talk about Georgia, talk about it all. | ||
But I want to go back to Geneva because important things are happening. | ||
Noor, I want to start back with you before I jump to Jack. | ||
Connect the dots, connect the audience now for you're sitting there in where the League of Nations, the war to end all wars, remember? | ||
And that was how it was pitched to the American people. | ||
And afterwards, remember, World War I was not a popular war. | ||
Afterwards this is where the the real isolationist movement started in the 20s and the 30s and it was it took Pearl Harbor really to get us in that conflict and the conflict you could argue was starting in 31 in Manchuria or 35 in Spain or you know with the with the German roll-up but you know Poland in 1939 as Jack knows Was the official kickoff date. | ||
The war had been going on for many years and America wanted no part of it. | ||
And the reason they wanted no part of it, they did not have good memories. | ||
There was massive support for the Doughboys and massive support for our troops that went over there. | ||
But that was not fondly remembered by the American public. | ||
In fact, President Roosevelt ran in 1940 adamantly saying there's no chance, zero chance that we're ever going to get tied up back in a European war. | ||
People are adamantly opposed to it. | ||
So Nora, how do we go from this traumatic experience of World War I, the League of Nations, to the Party of Davos, and to Geneva as the engine room of really what is a nascent... and look, we're not conspiracy theorists, we're just talking about the facts, and the facts are you have these transnational organizations that every day sometimes are nicking away at American sovereignty, but right now it's a full-on just grab. | ||
with this World Health Assembly and about driven by your government by the Biden regime has basically done this. So connect what happened in the in the in the in with Wilson to what's happening in Davos today and what's happening in in Geneva at the World Health Organization, the World Health Assembly. So first regarding the wars, you know, it's so well documented that the American people have always had this reluctance when it came to venturing, whether it was world | ||
wars or other conflicts, even up to this day with what's going on in the Ukraine, so much so that you have this ruling class, the unit party, all those who support this war right now, every single time you can see a form of trickery to get the United States embroiled in these conflicts. As I I said, up to this day, even with this proxy war that is going on. | ||
There hasn't been even a single vote in Congress to join, and you have $40 billion that are just being arbitrarily sent over there. | ||
Meanwhile, we all know the state of the country and the suffering that Americans are enduring every day since the Biden regime was installed. | ||
So that's the first point that I wanted to make. | ||
In terms of what's going on this week with the World Health Assembly, I really invite your audience who missed Dr. Peter Bragan's segment yesterday, which was absolutely brilliant to go and visit it because he did such a good breakdown at what's going on here with regards to not the treaty, but these amendments that are being proposed of the international health regulations. | ||
This is very important for people to understand that there are two tracks. | ||
happening here this week. | ||
You have the so-called public hearings for the treaty, which we don't know what it's going to be called yet, you know, convention agreement or international instruments that they are rolling out for the public progressively to inform us. | ||
It's sort of an unveiling because obviously we know that everything is already set up. | ||
And then on the other track, you have these international health regulation amendments, which have been proposed by the permanent US mission to the United Nations of the United States to the United Nations in Geneva. | ||
They proposed officially these amendments back in January of this year. | ||
And it's no coincidence, as we keep saying, but I mentioned on Monday, President Trump had done an amazing thing for the American people by removing the United States of the WHO. | ||
and then the Biden regime reintegrated the United States into the W.H.O. | ||
and they wasted no time to propose these amendments which would effectively extend, consolidate, and centralize the response to emergencies or health emergencies as they're calling it. | ||
Jack, I want to go, you went to CPAC in Hungary, Worban, the CPAC, it was amazing. | ||
Your journey then took you to Vienna. | ||
I know you're very proud of your Polish heritage of what the Poles did to save the West in the siege of Vienna. | ||
You have a better feel, I think, for Eastern Europe and most people in the Trump movement. | ||
What's your perspective, having been to Budapest for CPAC, Vienna, to see where the siege was and how the Poles saved Western Christendom, and to Davos and now be in Geneva, given everything that's going on in the Ukraine, everything that's happening in Europe and with your beloved Poland? | ||
Give us your perspective. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, Steve, what's really amazing now is coming off the heels of what you just said, these new polls showing that the American people are turning against spending for the war effort. | |
You're also seeing that here in or not here in Geneva, but over in Davos, we had two speeches this week, one by Dr. Kissinger and then last night a keynote address by Mr. Soros. | ||
Kissinger came out and delivered, really was a full broadside to the entire audience there by going right into the global elites in their headquarters at their summit and saying, we need to pull back on this. | ||
We need rapprochement with Moscow so that we can turn them against Beijing because they are the greater threat. | ||
Remember, this, of course, is the architect of the original rapprochement was the other way with the US and Beijing versus Moscow. | ||
So even if even Kissinger is saying it's time to pump the brakes on this, we need to find a way towards negotiated peace. | ||
And The New York Times had that editorial just a few weeks ago. | ||
That's been a huge shift in rhetoric and a huge shift in tone. | ||
As it seems as though the lily has been kind of gilded at this point when it comes to this. | ||
And keep in mind, I want everyone to understand the timing of this is so key to what Noor just said. | ||
All of this comes on the heels of the $40 billion having been spent and having been appropriated and having been confirmed. | ||
The minute the $40 billion went through, that's when the New York Times comes out and says, maybe we need to pump the brakes. | ||
That's when Kissinger comes out and says it's time to talk about negotiated peace, ceding territory, Donbass, Crimea, looking at these issues, coming up with some kind of settlement for that. | ||
And by the way, that's what President Zelensky actually ran on as his platform back in 2018. | ||
If anybody goes back, some of us were covering Ukraine all the way back in 2018. | ||
And remember what Zelensky said. | ||
He wanted a negotiated peace. | ||
He never wanted it to get to this point, but there were some people who did. | ||
The people of Davos, the people of Geneva, Steve, they have no self-awareness whatsoever. | ||
They are in this for power. | ||
They're in this for money. | ||
They want to institute, essentially, a CCP model of authoritarianism. | ||
That's the message of Davos. | ||
over to Shanghai. I was there at the American Chamber of Commerce and International Business. | ||
They found out how the CCP model worked. They found out how Xi Jinping's rise to power worked. | ||
And they said, that's what we want. Lock up your political opponents. Strip your rights away from individuals. Strip sovereignty away. Give it to nameless, faceless, unelected, technocratic bureaucracies. Those get the power. Everyone else gets nothing. That's the message of Davos. That's the message of the World Health Organization here in Geneva. | ||
Jack, give us your, about the podcast, your coverage, and your Twitter and Gitter feed so people can follow you nonstop. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, the big thing, you know, and we all saw the detention, that's going to be a huge part of it. | |
We're putting together a docuseries called The Great Global Reset through Turning Point USA. | ||
They sent us out here to cover all this. | ||
We're doing the docuseries. | ||
Charlie's already got the book up at turningpointusa.com. | ||
You go there, it's called The Conservative Response to The Great Reset. | ||
You donate as little as a dollar and you get the book delivered to you all about who Klaus Schwab is, what the organization of the WEF is, how conservatives and just people who love freedom and embrace freedom and free thought can respond to this. | ||
The podcast, of course, we're doing it every day, Human Events Daily, a podcast for people who don't like podcasts. | ||
And we're also going to be talking about on there today the WHO's new plan where they're joining with who? | ||
T-Mobile, T-Mobile owned by Deutsche Telekom for global digital vaccine. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Nor, real quickly, how do people get to you and your writings? | ||
unidentified
|
My website is norbetalek.com and you can find me on Twitter and the other both at that. | |
We'll talk to you guys during break. | ||
Thank you very much for anchoring our coverage out of Geneva this morning. | ||
Appreciate it. | ||
unidentified
|
short commercial break. Okay, welcome back to our coverage. | |
you We're kicking off the commemoration, as we do every year, of Memorial Day. | ||
We're going to have a bunch of specials over the weekend and invite everybody to participate. | ||
I want to go now to Rome, or outside of Rome, to Ben Harnwell, our international editor who is at the Sicily-Rome National Military Cemetery. | ||
Ben Harnwell. | ||
unidentified
|
Morning, Steve. | |
I'm in probably one of the most tranquil places I think I've ever visited in my life. | ||
The sense of peace here is absolutely profound. | ||
If you can see in the background there, there were the famous Rome tree, the cypress trees and the pine trees, and there were rows and rows and rows. | ||
There were 7,858 Crosses behind me in the white plain marble and in the chapel over my shoulder to the left there are on rosettes further commemorations of 3,095 combatants who were lost having died in action. | ||
So overall it's a commemoration of our 10,000, 11,000 brave warriors who gave their lives to the UK on continental Europe so that we Europeans might be free. | ||
Yes, folks should understand the Italian campaign was one of the most difficult and most controversial. | ||
I know people have questioned, you know, why didn't we just go to, particularly the Russians, why didn't we just go to Western Europe? | ||
Why didn't you do D-Day two years early? | ||
This was right after North Africa and Sicily and, of course, the Our honored dead from Sicily are buried at this, also in some of the famous battles of Anzio and then Monte Cassino, all of that coming up the boot of Italy to get to Rome. | ||
And I think Rome fell on the same day as D-Day. | ||
Ben, I know you're under, you got permission. | ||
It was fantastic. | ||
I really want to thank you. | ||
And I know you're going to get some more footage for us later in the day. | ||
So thank you very much. | ||
I really appreciate you doing this, setting it up for us and you're going to be a big part of our coverage as we talk about the, we're going to really spend a lot of time talking about the national military cemeteries. A lot of people don't realize this, we have a whole network of many, I think it's over 20 some, military cemeteries in Europe for World War I and World War II. | ||

Ben Harnwell, 21. | ||
21. | ||
Ben, can you just give your handle? | ||
I know you're going to be doing things on Getter and working with us on the commemoration, also what's going on in Davos, also what's going on in Geneva, but can you give your Getter handle? | ||
unidentified
|
Absolutely, Steve. | |
It's simply my surname, Hanwell. | ||
If folks want to go to Getter, the app, or getter.com, and simply track me down at Hanwell, I update that feed 24-7. | ||
Ben, thank you, and we'll catch you before the end of the show. | ||
I know you're going to have to leave the cemetery, but we'll get you outside. | ||
Thank you, sir. | ||
Appreciate it. | ||
unidentified
|
Thank you, Steve. | |
God bless. | ||
Really want to thank everybody that helped make that possible. | ||
Steve Cortez. | ||
You know, Memorial Day, we've always had a philosophy here at the War Room. | ||
It's just not the beginning of summer. | ||
It's just not time to go to the beach. | ||
It's not time for sails. | ||
It's the highest of all of our civic holidays to commemorate the war dead. | ||
Not veterans. | ||
It's not Veterans Day. | ||
And so every year we try to do something different. | ||
This year we're going to be talking a lot about The cemeteries in Europe, because I don't think a particularly younger generation understand the commitment that the deplorables have had, the blood and treasure of the deplorables that have gone back over a hundred years and basically fought for not just defense of the United States of America, but for the freedom of the folks in Europe. | ||
Steve Cortez, your thoughts? | ||
That's right, Steve. | ||
You know, Memorial Day, it can't just be about barbecues and pools opening. | ||
Those are wonderful events and wonderful traditions with Memorial Day, but it has to be, as you mentioned, really a civic commemoration of how many people have paid the ultimate sacrifice for our country. | ||
And, you know, I really, when I look at that beautiful cemetery, and we do have amazingly stunning and inspiring cemeteries all over Europe of American war dead, I think that those brave men who are buried there, they didn't die for globalism. | ||
They died for American sovereignty. | ||
And we are willfully surrendering our sovereignty at this very moment. | ||
We're surrendering it at the southern border where we have effectively vaporized that border and made it almost totally ineffective. | ||
According to Breitbart, from April 1st until May 15th, their sources at Customs and Border Patrol say, Half a million illegal migrants crossed in those six weeks. | ||
We're nearing almost 100,000 illegal migrants a week crossing the United States border. | ||
That's the definition of an open border, whether the Democrats will use that phrase or corporate media will or not. | ||
That is not sovereignty. | ||
We are right now in Switzerland, and you've been highlighting this all week. | ||
We are considering just surrendering our sovereignty to the WHO and making Dr. Tedros, who is literally one of the most corrupt figures In the world, making him, at least in part, a de facto dictator over U.S. | ||
policy as it relates to really important measures like health, or one of Dr. Tedros' successors. | ||
So, again, these brave men, they did not give their lives for the United States to surrender our sovereignty. | ||
So let's reclaim our sovereignty. | ||
It's a huge part of the America First movement. | ||
It is a pillar of our cause of patriotic populism. | ||
And it's very relevant to these votes that are going on right now because I think it is critical in these primaries to make sure that we elect America first candidates who say no to boondoggles like the massive aid package to Ukraine. | ||
And in that vein, I think we got good news out of Alabama yesterday. | ||
Katie Britt, who has been incredibly critical of Mo Brooks, who was a sitting congressman trying to get a promotion to the Senate. | ||
He voted in favor, Mo Brooks did. | ||
He voted in favor of that $40 billion boondoggle for Ukraine. | ||
Katie Britt attacked him seriously on that point, and they are going to go to a runoff. | ||
She didn't quite get to 50%, but she is well ahead of Mo Brooks. | ||
So I think it's yet another sign, just as the J.D. | ||
Vance triumph in Ohio was, Yet another sign that those kind of candidates who insist on a foreign policy of realism and restraint, who argue against interventionism and globalism, against the Brussels and Davos crowd, and insist on prioritizing the serious crises that exist right here in this country, those candidates are going to triumph. | ||
They have been and they will continue to throughout these primaries and then into the fall, Steve. | ||
Let's talk to, let's bring a candidate in right now. | ||
By the way, Mo Brooks, I know and love the guy, but look, it tells you about the mindset in Washington, D.C. | ||
When you see the speeches of Tom Cotton, when you see the speeches of Ted Cruz, these are infantile. | ||
Their arguments in defense of that $40 billion were infantile. | ||
Okay, just infantile. | ||
And you see someone like Mo Brooks, you can't defend it. | ||
And you've got to say, it's got to be a new day. | ||
You've got to get out of this mindset. | ||
Here's the beauty. | ||
The Associated Press, up on RealClearPolitics, it's on my Getter feed. | ||
The headline of RealClearPolitics is massive shift in opinion away from, as we said on the show, as soon as people understand, there's no more free money. | ||
As soon as they understand, as soon as they understood, boom! | ||
No! | ||
The people are far ahead of the political class on this. | ||
Let's go to Georgia. | ||
Vernon Jones. | ||
Vernon, you're running for a federal office. | ||
You're running for Congress. | ||
You made it through the first round. | ||
You're in a second round. | ||
I think you get like four weeks. | ||
Walk us through. | ||
You just heard our coverage in Europe and talking about Geneva. | ||
What is your definition of America first? | ||
And what are you fighting for when you get to Congress? | ||
Well, as we say back home on the farm, it's a poor cow that won't lick her own calf. | ||
If you don't take care of your own, how are you going to take care of someone else? | ||
The America First agenda is about taking care of America first. | ||
And when we're deploying resources to other countries where we don't have interest or the best interest in American people, we shouldn't do that. | ||
You know, we have people right now who have been used to receiving a paycheck and not having to go to work. | ||
A lot of businesses have gone out of business. | ||
I've gone out of business, I should say. | ||
You cannot find workers. | ||
Why? | ||
Because they were getting free lunches. | ||
And then they also talking about giving away Or get rid of the debt, student loans. | ||
Where's the money going to come from? | ||

|
I've operated from a state legislature as a former state legislator. | |
We balance the budget every year. | ||
Same thing with Chief Executive. | ||
We balance the budget. | ||
We get to do what we don't have. | ||
And I'm very concerned about this run of rain spending. | ||
And when I get to Washington as being a part of American First's agenda, we will be seeking a balanced budget amendment. | ||
But also the rain and this incredible outlandish spending That we don't have. | ||
Our bond rating with the federal government now is a dual AA. | ||
It was a dual AAA. | ||
We've lost that footing. | ||
We have to get back to financial responsibility. | ||
Vernon, you're running in, I think, Georgia 10. | ||
Jake Evans, I think, is in Georgia 6. | ||
I think you're the only two Trump-endorsed candidates that made it through the first round. | ||
Walk us through your race, the details of it. | ||
How long is it going to be? | ||
How do people get to you? | ||
How do they find this out? | ||
And where are you going to be? | ||
How are you going to conduct this campaign? | ||
Because there's only two Trump-endorsed candidates left. | ||
I think you and Jake Evans. | ||
Well, remember this, Steve. | ||
We got in this race very, very late, just two and a half months ago. | ||
We went from the bottom to the top. | ||
We've outperformed all others. | ||
So we are on point. | ||
We are on message. | ||
We have a runoff June 21st, which is about four weeks from now. | ||
If those want to get involved and be a part of this, go to jonesforgeorgia.com. | ||
I'm right here now in the middle of the fighting 10th congressional district. | ||
We're here in Madison, Georgia, which is one of our strongholds, which is Monroe County, but we have 18 counties and we're going to continue to take our message. | ||
We're in the best place. | ||
You and I both know when you're getting a runoff, The game is reset. | ||
It's all over. | ||
It starts all over again. | ||
Win the playoff. | ||
We've got the best team, the best people, and the best supporters. | ||
And we take our message directly to the fighting team. | ||
How do people get to you? | ||
How do they follow you on social media and how do they get to the campaign? | ||
Jones4Georgia.com. | ||
Go to Jones4Georgia.com. | ||
And all my other social media is Vernon Jones for Congress. | ||
But yes, please go right now. | ||
You can donate. | ||
I want a yard sign, whatever. | ||
Go there and be a part of this. | ||
We're going to take this country back. | ||
And let me tell you, Steve, you're right. | ||
People are looking for fighters, those who will stand up against the RINOs, the establishment. | ||
I've had to fight them. | ||
I'm the only one that's been attacked by the RINOs, the establishment, and the liberal media. | ||
Why? | ||
Because I'm unbought and unbossed, and I'm going to do what I say I'm going to do. | ||
Vernon Jones, thank you very much for coming on today. | ||
Look forward to tracking the Fighting Tenth very closely. | ||
Thank you, sir. | ||
Thank you. | ||
Peace out. | ||
Vernon Jones, he's a Trump-endorsed candidate down there in Georgia. | ||
I think Bert Jones might have gotten over 50%. | ||
I know Bert Jones was endorsed also. | ||
Cortez, I've got to go back to you. | ||
You're kicking up a little controversy this morning, but I want to put it in perspective. | ||
You were essentially the wingman for J.D. | ||
Vance for a couple weeks, right, to represent the war room posse in the Vance campaign. | ||
You then went to Illinois, which is a little different breed of cat. | ||
I mean, it's essentially Trump country south of Chicago, most of it, but you were up there fighting for And then you were in Georgia. | ||
We'll talk about Georgia when we get back from the break, but just put in perspective your feel as you're going around. | ||
We started the coverage today in Geneva. | ||
We've had Davos all week. | ||
We went to the National Military Cemetery. | ||
We're going to do a lot of coverage of that, of the commitment, the blood and treasure of America in Europe, right? | ||
Give us a sense where, as you see from Ohio to Illinois to Georgia, where are folks' heads right now? | ||
Uh, they are totally focused, almost laser-focused, Steve, on inflation. | ||
You know, I've been saying for months that I think the two issues are inflation and immigration. | ||
It is the two I's. | ||
I still believe that, but I have to tell you that that second I of immigration, while it's important, it is in a distant third place because I think inflation is the first place and the second place. | ||
And the reason I say that is having talked to, you know, now thousands of regular Americans that I've met at these town halls and rallies and all over the country, every single person, and Steve, when they say this to me, they say it with anguish in their voices and concern in their eyes. | ||
The first thing they talk about is inflation, that they literally cannot afford the things that they need in their lives. | ||
We're not talking about luxuries. | ||
We're talking about the necessities. | ||
Or they're incredibly worried about their children who are in their 20s and can't afford to buy a home. | ||
Don't want to get married, don't want to have kids, don't think they can afford the life that they had. | ||
I hear this over and over again. | ||
This inflation right now, this explosion of inflation in this country that the corporate media either doesn't understand or is just too biased to really cover, it is eating away at the fabric of our society and we have to provide the solutions as a movement to get us out of this quagmire. | ||
Okay, Steve, just hang on. | ||
I'm gonna hold you through the break. | ||
We've also got Russ Vogt coming up at the top of the hour for our head of OMB. | ||
We'll get to all of this next in The War Room. | ||

Really depressing news from the housing market lately. | ||
Home prices have been soaring as capital pours into single-family homes as a protection against the Biden-Pelosi-McConnell inflation surge. | ||
But those prices are unaffordable to a great deal of Americans, and therefore, total sales of new single-family homes fell 16% year over year. | ||
Now, let's look at a couple of stock market indicators to reflect this reality. | ||
If we look at the XHB, that is an ETF, an exchange-traded fund that groups together all of the homebuilders in one ticker. | ||
Over the last year, homebuilders down 22% in a bear market. | ||
At the same time, who's doing well in this Biden economy? | ||
Well, international oil conglomerates like PetroChina, the Chinese energy giant. | ||
Its stock How bad is this going to implode on us, Steve Cortez, to add on to everything else? | ||
We've got the asset deflation, you've got the runaway inflation, you've got the supply chain collapse. | ||
They are lighting their cigars with $100 bills at the same time that U.S. homebuilders are languishing. | ||
How bad is this going to implode on us, Steve Cortez, to add on to everything else? | ||
We've got the asset deflation, you've got the runaway inflation, you've got the supply chain collapse. | ||
How bad is this going to be? | ||
Well, it's terrible, Steve. | ||
And listen, this is the very definition of stagflation, right? | ||
When you mean the stagnation, the decelerating growth with high prices. | ||
The world's not supposed to work that way in economics. | ||
So, in housing specifically, we have the number of sales plummeting down 16% year-over-year for new home sales, yet prices stay incredibly high. | ||
That's not the way that supply and demand are supposed to work in economics. | ||
But it's happening now. | ||
It happened in the 1970s. | ||
And it's happening now. | ||
Why? | ||
Because of this absolute inflation surge, capital is pouring into housing. | ||
I think intelligently so, but including a lot of institutional capital, which in my opinion should be banned from the single-family housing market in the United States. | ||
But it is pouring in because what does capital want right now in this inflationary madness? | ||
It wants tangible goods. | ||
Whether it's a bushel of wheat, a barrel of oil, or a single-family home. | ||
But because of that, because of those exploding prices higher in homes, the lack of affordability means that the total number of transactions is declining fast. | ||
Now that has massive cultural and societal problems for our country, but that is the reality. | ||
These are the perverse priorities of the permanent political class of Washington, D.C. | ||
And who benefits? | ||
Qui bono, as I always say, the Roman Latin phrase. | ||
Qui bono. | ||
Who benefits? | ||
International oil conglomerates like The CCP supported PetroChina, a gigantic energy firm. | ||
They're doing great. | ||
These are wonderful days for those kinds of firms. | ||
Wonderful days for Royal Dutch Shell, but miserable days for Main Street America right now. | ||
We got Russ Votes going to join us at the top of the hour. | ||
Former head of OMB under President Trump in his first term. | ||
We're getting more economic. | ||
Steve, you've gotten blown up a little bit today because you came out and endorsed Kemp. | ||
We got some, there's a certain element, a certain of the hardest fighters in our War Room live chats that are not prepared to give up from last night. | ||
They think this thing was, they think it's a throne or they can't believe the numbers. | ||
Tell us your assessment of Georgia. | ||
You were down there. | ||
What's your assessment of what happened? | ||
Well, listen, my assessment, first of all, is that Georgia people are incredibly fired up. | ||
I see that certainly all over America, but I think even more so in Georgia. | ||
Here's what I would say. | ||
Look, we have to play with the players that we have. | ||
And whether or not you supported Kemp, here's the reality. | ||
It is a binary choice. | ||
There's no credible third-party candidate out there. | ||
So it is a binary choice. | ||
It is Stacey Abrams Or it is Kemp. | ||
And I say 1,000% I am behind Kemp. | ||
Stacey Abrams would be a disaster for this country. | ||
Hang on. | ||
You meant to say if you supported Perdue. | ||
If you support Kemp, you're clearly going to support Kemp against Abrams. | ||
You're clearly going to support Kemp against Abrams. | ||
You meant to say if you supported Perdue. | ||
I'm saying for the general election, I'm saying that it is imperative that the America First Patriots now get behind Kemp. | ||
That's what I'm saying. | ||
For the general election. | ||
For people that voted for Perdue or voted for Candace Taylor or other people, correct? | ||
Correct. | ||
unidentified
|
Correct. | |
That's what I'm saying, is that from here forward, you know, that game is over. | ||
The primary is done, all right? | ||
That is spilled milk. | ||
The primary is over. | ||
From here forward, it is imperative... But how do you assess the fact that with all that effort and obviously a fired up grassroots, that Kemp was able... I mean, this is a rejection to a degree of President Trump in getting to the bottom of 3 November, because Georgia is the most corrupt state in this. | ||
And Raffensperger and these guys have been returned to do it all over again. | ||
How do you argue with the hardest core of UltraMAGA that they've got to put their shoulder to the wheel? | ||
They're going to say, hey, this guy threw the election. | ||
They looked the other way when this election was stolen. | ||
They haven't done anything. | ||
Why shouldn't I support him? | ||
Right. | ||
Steve, listen, you know I will never equivocate on the reality of what happened in 2020. | ||
The election was 100% stolen, it was rigged, it was invalid in every sense, so I will never equivocate on that. | ||
And by the way, Raffensperger and Kemp will forever, should forever, wear that shame of their inaction regarding, and by the way, not even just post-election, but what they did before the election, the way that they caved to Stacey Abrams and In that consent decree made what I really view as a devil's pact with the enemy, okay? | ||
So there's no equivocation on that point, but the primary voters of Georgia have spoken. | ||
And here's why I think they selected Kemp in spite of his massive problems regarding 2020. | ||
He has been a pretty good governor, with that massive exception. | ||
It's a huge exception. | ||
But with that exception, he's been a pretty good governor. | ||
When it comes to COVID, for example, I think he was the most courageous governor in all of America. | ||
He was the earliest, even before Ron DeSantis, who's been wonderful, he was the earliest governor to say, no, we are going to be guided by actual science, not by narrative. | ||
We're not going to be scared. | ||
Georgia was the very first state to open up. | ||
I think that earned him enormous goodwill with the primary voters. | ||
But again, here's my issue, Steve. | ||
This is a binary choice. | ||
There's no third alternative here. | ||
It is Stacey Abrams or it is Kemp. | ||
And given that choice all day long, even with my problems with him about 2020, I'm going to say it has to be Kemp. | ||
This is my point, and we'll get back to this in the next segment. | ||
I have to get you on it for a different segment. | ||
I'm telling you, there's going to be 10% of MAGA that says, hey, pox on all your houses. | ||
I know this crowd. | ||
Somebody's going to have to sell them on this. | ||
Particularly, they're not buying this morning. | ||
But that is upon Kemp and whoever else is there to make the case. | ||
Okay, Cortez, hang on for it. |
