If they can put Peter Navarro in prison, they can come for all of us.
Maybe like sounds weedsy and I think we had this whole discussion setting up the show like do we start talking about this deal on the Electoral Count Act?
Is it gonna bore people?
Are they gonna turn off?
But it's so important and it's so critical to preventing another January 6th from happening again.
So talk to us about where this stands.
This deal that would try to basically prevent presidential candidates down the road from stealing elections.
That's right, Hallie.
We know the January 6th committee has this tantalizing trove of information about a plot to steal an election.
The question becomes, what are they going to do with all that knowledge?
And legislatively, this is where the rubber meets the road.
A working group, a bipartisan group of senators, is finalizing legislation as we speak.
It could be released as early as next week to close gaps in election law in an attempt to prevent candidates in future elections from trying to steal elections the way former President Trump allegedly attempted in 2020.
There are several aspects that they're tackling in the law.
Specifically, it looks at revising the 1887 Electoral Count Act to make clear that a vice president does not have unilateral power to reject electors.
They raise the rules for forcing Congress to vote on objections to certain electors from the current rule of one member of the House and one senator to about one-fifth.
of each body.
And there are other changes that they're making as well, including changes to the Presidential Transition Act to make sure both candidates in cases of a close or contested election are able to access resources.
And finally, the issue of safe harbor.
This deadline, the statutory deadline for states to send electors to Congress to make sure it counts, this group is working to make sure that that is done properly in a way that assures that the winner has their elector sent to Congress and ultimately is certified.
Now, we know the leadership of both parties.
The Democratic and Republican Party have blessed this negotiation.
They're hoping to release legislation as early as next week.
That's according to a leader of the group, Senator Susan Collins, a Republican of Maine.
And there remain questions about when they're going to vote on it.
Some want to do it between the August recess and the midterms, whereas others say it might have to happen in the lame duck alley.
peter navarro
For Stephen K. Bannon.
The quality of journalism here in America continually hits new lows.
We've got MSNBC having these commentators continually insist that the election, that President Trump tried to, quote, steal the election on January 6.
And at the same time, they're describing what is a fix to this electoral count act, which would stop the vice president and Congress from effectively looking at possible illegal votes in the vote stream.
And the way MSNBC has spun this story, you heard it in Denver.
I might want to have you cue that up again.
So get ready.
The way MSNBC spins this story is somehow Congress is going to close a loophole that will prevent quote, the stealing of an election when in fact the electoral count act was established to prevent the stealing of an election.
And I think it's really important to focus on both, both the, the legislative dimensions of this change, proposed changes, as well as the political dimensions.
I mean, first of all.
The cast of characters here pushing this whole thing is really interesting.
On the Democrats' side, you've got Chuck Schumer joining hands with Joe Manchin.
And this is kind of Joe Manchin's bid, essentially.
To win back the good graces of the Democrats who are now really ticked off at him for doing the right thing with respect to this grand plan climate change monstrosity that the Democrats were trying to get past.
Manchin pulled the plug on that.
He was the swing vote.
That was done.
So this whole thing is getting into bed with Chuckie Schumer is a way, essentially, to mend Democrat senses.
So that's the dynamic there.
Now you have to ask yourself the question, who's pushing this on the Republican side?
So far, some of the usual suspects haven't surfaced, like Lindsey Graham and Mitt Romney and Ben Sasse and Pat Toomey.
These are the quintessential rhino, never-Trump Republicans that have always been trying to work with these crazy Democrats.
And it's a situation where we have, once again, once again, Mitch McConnell trying to stick a knife both in the back and the front of Donald Trump.
By emphasizing his thing.
So my view of this whole bid by Manchin, Collins, Schumer, and McConnell to effectively overthrow the Electoral Count Act is the best admission, the best admission that Donald Trump did nothing whatsoever illegal On January 6th.
And moreover, Vice President Mike Pence did exactly the wrong thing.
The fact that these rhino Republicans and woke Democrats feel compelled to change the Electoral Count Act in a way which takes power away from the Vice President to order a recount Let's go through that again.
Think about this.
which are contested by legislatures, tells you right there that Vice President Mike Pence had the power to do so on January 6th.
Let's go through that again.
Think about this.
The whole spin on Capitol Hill in the mainstream media and the rhino Republicans is that, oh, Mike Pence did the right thing to save the republic.
unidentified
He, you, you.
peter navarro
He had the law on his side.
unidentified
He didn't have any power to do other than what he did.
peter navarro
Well, BS!
I'm calling BS.
And the best proof of that is this proposed change to the Electoral Count Act, which would take away the power to recount votes from the vice president.
If Pence didn't have the power to do that on January 6th, why does Congress, why does Manchin and McConnell and Collins and Schumer feel the need to make that explicit?
Of course, the other thing they do, which is about as undemocratic with a small d as you can get, Is they want to not only turn Vice President Pence or any future vice president into a ministerial rubber stamp role when counting the electoral votes, right?
That's what they want.
They want to take the power away from the country in order.
Look, on January 6th, the Green Bay sweep, that was the strategy.
The guy who usually sits in his chair, Developed to challenge what he saw rightfully as a likely flood of illegal votes into the ballot box.
That's all he wanted to do.
And the rules of the road under the Green Bay Sweep and under the Electoral Count Act was simply, simply that all you had to do is have one congressman and or one senator To ask for a count in a given state.
They want to change that to 20% of everybody in the House and 20% of everybody in the Senate for any given objection.
That's a non-starter right there.
So let's watch this one carefully because it's the best evidence that Steve Bannon, Donald Trump, and yours truly work right between the lines of the electoral count act in trying to get a legal count of the legal votes.
And the best evidence is exactly this, that they want to now clarify or change the rules so that vice presidents in the future couldn't do what we now know by this very fact that Trader Pence had the ability to do, but did not do on January 6th because he is the puppet All right.
I am pleased now to introduce one of my favorite of all time.
I got two favorite political consultants of all time.
One of them is Ed Rollins.
The other, the other is the inestimable Dick Morris.
And today we have Dick Morris in the house with his new book.
We're going to be talking about that in this block and the next.
And the only way I found out that Dick had a new book was in looking at my own book, Taking Back Trump's America.
It had been in the number one position in the category of nationalism in Amazon, which I'm proud of.
And lo and behold, it started going down to number two, where it remains.
And I looked, oh, Dick Morris with his new book.
If we have Dick, let's bring my brother Dick in.
I'm so pleased to have you on.
How are things in Morrisland and the book doing?
unidentified
I didn't mean to displace you.
You know, I'm not used to seeing you in a black shirt.
Where's the white shirt, the loosened tie, and the rolled up sleeves?
peter navarro
This is the war room, sir, and you are welcome to go as brass knuckled as you do in the back rooms of politics with your genius, sir.
We've got plenty of time, and we'll go as long as you have time, but I wanted to first give your audience a flavor of Of how early you knew Donald Trump and what that relationship was, because I think it was your dad, who was a real estate lawyer, started out with Trump's dad.
And, you know, go from there to during the 2020 campaign, you were one of the most important secret advisors of President Trump.
So can you talk a little bit first, just about the early years with Donald Trump, who you predict will be the next president in 2024?
unidentified
Well, my father was Fred Trump's lawyer and then Donald Trump's lawyer, and handled most all of his real estate projects for him.
There was really kind of a triumvirate of Trump, Roy Cohn, who was my first cousin and my father's cousin, and my father, Eugene Morris.
And Trump would do the financing, my father would do the administrative stuff, and Roy would do the politics.
Whenever Trump would come over to my table at Mar-a-Lago to greet me, he would say, your mother, Jean Morris, was the best real estate lawyer I ever had.
He wasn't anything like you.
He wasn't political.
So I've known, I've known Trump my whole life.
And, um, I wrote a book in 19, I'm sorry, in 2000, get blocking in 2016.
that came out in May of 2016, eight months before the election, six months before the election. And its title was Armageddon, how Trump will beat Hillary. And nobody's interesting.
And it laid out a game plan for how to do it that focused on the Hispanic vote on the blue collar white vote, and really the game plan that Trump implemented. And I was very happy to have done that. Anyway, I got so so we brought you in a little late, but we're gonna we're gonna take a quick break here.
peter navarro
And when we come back, the mic's going to be all yours and we're going to continue this story.
So it's Peter K. Navarro in for Stephen K. Manning.
You are in The War Room, the number one podcast in politics, in the world.
I'll be right back with Dick Morris.
unidentified
Bring it on and now we'll fight to the end, just watch and see.
It's all started, everything's begun, and you are over.
Cause we're taking down the CCP.
For the world, all through Hong Kong, we will fight till they're all gone.
We rejoice when there's no more, let's take down the CCP.
For Peter Navarro and leg irons for simply doing his constitutional duty.
Now they want to put Peter in prison for standing up for Donald Trump.
Please go to Amazon right now and order Taking Back Trump's America to help fund Peter's legal defense.
Taking Back Trump's America provides a critical MAGA blueprint to put Trump back in the White House in 2024.

If they can put Peter Navarro in prison, they can come for all of us.
peter navarro
Peter K. Navarro in for Stephen K. Bannon.
We are talking with the author of the hot new book, At top of the charts on Amazon, The Return by none other than political consultant Dick Morris.
In that book, The Return, Dick predicts that there's only one person who can and will be president in 2024, and that's Donald John Trump.
Dick, we're going to get deeper into that, but first I want to ask you, about the 2022 race because President Trump has taken keen interest in a lot of races.
How many seats do you think the Republicans are going to win on net?
Is it going to be like a Gingrich, Obama type carnage for the Democrats, something less or kind of a hundred year flood that some folks like Steve Bannon talk about?
unidentified
Well, first of all, Peter, I just want to say to your audience that you may not know that Peter Navarro was one of only two members of the Trump administration, not counting the president, that really stood up to China throughout the whole time.
He had it right.
He understood what China was doing to us in trade.
Nobody else had the guts to do that.
They all had their eye on a legal job or a consulting fee after they got out.
And Peter Navarro stood up incredibly.
You all know him from his role in the election, but the China stuff presaged that.
peter navarro
I appreciate that.
I never cashed in, Dick.
That's why I'm wearing a t-shirt here instead of a fancy suit, but that's another story.
Anyway, talk to me.
I appreciate that.
Talk to me.
How do you think this 2022 thing is going to shape up?
The Dems are putting their hopes on Roe v. Wade.
Republicans are saying it's inflation, inflation, inflation.
Where do you come out on this?
What's going to happen?
unidentified
It'll be an enormous, enormous landslide.
I think it'll dwarf anything in American history.
I think that it is unbelievable what's going to happen.
Frankly, Peter, I think it may mean the death of the white Democrat.
The entire Democratic Party, I think, will become black, and the white liberal congressmen will all lose, except in a few urban districts.
And the Hispanics will vote heavily for the Republicans, And I think it's going to be a total game changer.
And in the Senate, there's a there's a focus by the Republicans on four seats, Arizona, Arizona, Nevada, New Hampshire, and Georgia.
And I think that we're going to win a lot more than that.
And I'm going to be doing a series of polls with John McLaughlin over the next few weeks of Colorado, Washington, Oregon, Connecticut, and New York.
I think Schumer could be beaten.
So I'll give you results on those when we get them.
peter navarro
Is this, is this solely due to the shift in the Hispanic and to a certain extent, the black male vote towards the Republican party or, or is there other mischief afoot among like the soccer moms who can't handle things like critical race theory in their schools?
unidentified
It's all of the above.
I think the Hispanic shift is the biggest, uh, good for you for spotting the black male shift, uh, in ALE.
There is a large shift among them.
We'll still lose black women, but we won't carry black men.
But at this point, I think we're running about 20 points stronger among black men than black women.
They don't like the idea that Biden is going to appoint a Spanish woman to the Supreme Court or a black woman as vice president.
They don't feel a black woman to the court.
They feel that men are entitled to equal time and they think that the increasing focus on African American women by the administration is a reflection of Heather has two mommies and who needs to raise the incomes of black men and replace them with black women.
But yeah, I think it'll be a huge, huge sweep.
peter navarro
Come out on whether Kevin McCarthy will be the speaker versus a more Trumpian figure, and whether McConnell will be retired or not.
And do you think that's important for the Trump agenda?
unidentified
No, not really.
I think with McConnell, you have, you know, two-thirds of the Senate isn't up this year, and those guys will all vote for McConnell.
So I don't think that's important.
In terms of the House, I don't really know.
I'm not following it closely.
peter navarro
All right, let's shift gears now.
You claim unequivocally that Donald Trump will be president and sworn in on January 2025.
You're not worried about Ron DeSantis, obviously.
Let's start with him.
Why not?
unidentified
Nobody's going to run against Trump.
I think he'll get the nomination by acclamation, unanimously, on the first ballot.
There might be a Romney or a Cheney that runs.
But DeSantis isn't crazy.
The latest national poll by McLaughlin has Trump ahead of DeSantis by the tiny margin of 59 to 15.
The guy runs and plays a 44-point lead.
He deserves to have his head examined.
And everybody else is below DeSantis in single digits.
The idea that Trump would have a tough primary or McConnell's statement would be a crowded field is simply the media propaganda trying to sully Trump and trying to trip him up.
They know that that's not true and the other candidates know that that's not true.
peter navarro
What is it about the traditional kind of role of the Republican primary to also vet potential VPs?
You know, if Trump faces an uncontested Trump is like The Bachelor, who can have his choice of women.
He doesn't have to marry for prestige.
unidentified
I don't know and I don't much care.
Trump is like the bachelor who can have his choice of women.
He doesn't have to marry for prestige.
He can pick anyone he wants.
And I think that therefore a lot of the candidates who are trying to get it, like Haley and a few others, are hurting themselves because I think they're rubbing Trump the wrong way.
He'll pick someone he can really get along with, which is to say someone he can boss around.
And he did that with Pence and he was right for three years and 11 and a half months.
And he'll do...
peter navarro
The, um, it's interesting that Pence endorsed Robeson out for governor against Trump's endorsed candidate, Kerry Lake.
Did you note that or make anything of that?
That seemed to me like political suicide yet again on behalf of Mike Pence.
unidentified
You can't commit suicide if you're dead.
and Pence instead.
But listen, let's get on to the law.
Let's talk about 24, and let's talk about why I think Trump is inevitable, and let's talk about why I think Hillary will be.
OK?
Inevitable for Trump, first of all, I believe that he has solved the problem, potentially, of fraud in the election.
I think that there will be no cheating in the 24 election, because we are discussing this off the air of the case of Moore v. Harper, which nobody's talking about, but it is a bombshell.
This is the case that arose from the North Carolina redistricting.
And what happened was that the Republican legislature passed a plan that was very pro-Republican, and the Democratic Supreme Court threw it out.
And the Republicans sued Not just on the usual grounds that this is unfair or partisan or one man, one vote, but rather on the novel grounds of legislative supremacy.
They said that section article three, section four of the constitution says that the manner, places and times of electing senators or congressmen shall be decided by the state legislatures, not the governors, not the states, not the state courts, not the secretaries of state, the legislatures.
And the four judges have voted to accept it, which means I think it'll win six to five.
And what that does is you have five states now where the Republican legislature has passed basically the Georgia and the Florida and the Alabama and the Arizona bill that really eliminate the potential for voter fraud.
No drop boxes, no no excuse ballots.
Uh, verification of signatures, photo ID and so on.
But the Democratic governors in those five states have vetoed the bill and they are Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and North Carolina.
And if the court rules in favor of the Republicans in in this case, I believe that that is going to completely change everything because then you will not be able to cheat because the legislature will set the rules and they can be enforced by injunctive relief.
So that's the first.
peter navarro
Does that take away the power of a governor to veto a bill of the state legislature?
unidentified
Correct.
Now in Michigan, they do that.
Wow.
In Michigan, there's a law that says That if you introduce a bill in the legislature, in the Senate, in the House, in the state, and you do it with 500,000 signatures backing it up, the governor cannot veto that bill.
If it passes the legislature, it becomes law.
That's how the right to work law passed in Michigan about seven years ago.
So in Michigan, you may have that already, but in these other states, if we win the Moore case, you're going to have that all over.
And I think the problem of ballot fraud will be something in the rearview mirror.
peter navarro
Dick, we're going to take another break now.
Hold on.
We'll be right back with Dick Morris, author of the bestselling now, The Return.
We'll be right back here in the War Room.
Peter Canovaro in for Stephen K. Bannon.
Stay right there.
unidentified
Everything's begun and you are over.
Cause we're taking down the CCP.
From the world all through Hong Kong.
We will fight till they're all gone.
We rejoice when there's no more.
Let's take down the CCP.
War Room.
Pandemic.
With Stephen K. Bannon.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
peter navarro
Peter K. Navarro in for Stephen K. Bannon and I'm delighted to be having a conversation with political consultant Dick Morris, the secret consultant to Donald Trump during the 2020 campaign.
He had numerous conversations offline.
With President Trump, and he didn't take a penny for it, and the deal was it would remain secret throughout the election.
We now know that he had extensive conversations with the boss.
And we're going to go back now right to Dick.
His new book, The Return, predicts a Trump victory in 2024.
Dick, tell us what the game plan is in 2024 and why the boss is a lock.
unidentified
Well, I think there are three elements that really underscore what Trump inevitability in 24.
The first is that he is, you know, like Toyota has a hybrid car, half gas, half electric.
Well, Trump is like the hybrid candidate, half incumbent and half insurgent.
So as the insurgent, he goes out and he says, hey, we have to fight against inflation, fight against high gas prices.
the woke agenda, all that stuff, immigration, but then the Democrats come back and they say how do we know you can do any different?
How do we know you can deal with gas prices?
You know they say Democrats love to cloak their failures in the disguise of inevitability and say that there's no way you can deal with inflation, there's no way you can hold down gas prices.
It's just a phenomenon of living in our society, borders don't mean anything anymore.
And of course, they'll come over but Donald Trump alone can say I did it.
I had gas prices down.
I stopped inflation.
I sealed the border.
I stopped Russia from screwing around and he that's a unique thing to be able to say and takes away the key argument that the Democrats would use.
The second thing is that During the Antifa demonstrations and the whole stuff after George Floyd's murder, everybody was saying, well, this will help us get white blue collar voters.
And that's sure it did, but we'd largely maxed out among them.
But I believed in my colleague, John McLaughlin and John Jordan, who worked with me on this, believed that ultimately the, that ultimately the Hispanic vote would go Republican.
Because of patriotism.
That when Antifa is tearing down statues and desecrating the flag and saying America's a racist, evil country, that so alienated the Latinos, who were the people who chose to come here, often at risk of their lives.
And by the way, alienated Asian Americans too.
And it produced a huge gain among them to a point where it looks now as if we'll actually carry the Latino vote in 24.
And the third thing is, of course, the ability to communicate with white, blue-collar voters.
Hillary dismissed them as deplorable.
Trump said they cling to their Bibles and guns.
But Trump said, these are Americans and they have real problems, and we've got to stop illegal immigration from bringing down their wages, Chinese products from putting their companies out of business and getting them laid off, and really stand up for them.
And he did.
And I think he speaks their language in a blunt, aggressive way.
And I don't think anybody else can.
So I think it's going to be Trump and only Trump.
peter navarro
Dick, you said something there, which, which just popped out at me.
You believe that Trump will actually carry the Latino vote, meaning he's going to get over half of Latinos voting in that election.
Can you provide some context for that historically as to what percentages he got like in 2016 versus Bush in 2008 and things like that?
unidentified
We got 36 to 38% of the Latino vote in 2020.
And the current poll that McLaughlin and I are doing shows us getting 50% of the Latino vote now in a race against Biden.
So, really, the sky is the limit.
peter navarro
And what was it in 2016, do you remember?
unidentified
That did it?
peter navarro
I thought it was down in the teens back then.
unidentified
Oh in 2016, yeah, it was about 20 percent and then it jumped up to 36 and now it may jump up to 50.
peter navarro
This is literally a massive demographic shift.
The Democrats clearly have taken Latinos for granted.
Let's drill down a little bit on the black vote.
What was it circa 2016, 2012 with Romney?
What was it in 2020 and where are you projecting that?
2016, 2012 with Romney and what is it, what was it in 2020 and where are you projecting that?
unidentified
In the past it was like 9% in 2008 when Obama was running.
is...
It was about 12% in 2012.
It was about 14% in 2016.
Now I think it's going to be in the high teens and low 20s.
But the gender gap will be enormous.
The black men will vote for us much more than black women.
But it's not among blacks that the biggest shift will take place other than Hispanics.
It's with Generation Z. Those are people in their 20s.
We found something incredible in our polling, Peter, that I wrote about in the book.
When you turn 26 years old, and you blow out the candles on the cake, you become a conservative.
Before you're 26.
peter navarro
Conservative.
unidentified
Conservative.
Before you're 26, you're a liberal because you're still thinking of your college professors and your school system and all of that.
But when you turn 26 years old, you have to support your family.
You have to look at buying a house or an apartment.
You have to look at moving out of your mother, your mother's house.
And you all of a sudden realize the consequences of democratic rule.
And when you compare, this is hysterical, but it's really true.
When you compare the votes of those age 21 to 25 with those age 25 to 29, there is about a 15 to 17 point difference of Trump doing better among the older group.
Uh, they literally fall off the table.
And, uh, I think that basically those of us who are concerned that the indoctrination in college may carry over.
Or wrong.
Once they meet the real world, they change completely.
peter navarro
And I imagine, Dick, the voter turnout, as they get older, goes up.
And the voter participation goes up.
unidentified
Good.
peter navarro
Versus the younger, versus old.
So it's an even amplified effect.
Have I got that right?
unidentified
Yep, you got that right.
Now you mentioned the idea of the... Go ahead.
No, go ahead.
peter navarro
No, you go ahead.
unidentified
I want to just spend a minute on the other side of the fence, the Democratic side.
I believe Hillary Clinton may well be the candidate.
And my reason for that is that I expect that Bush will be forced out soon.
I think they'll let him stay.
They won't do the 25th amendment.
They'll let him stay, but they'll say, you have to say you're not going to run in 24.
And I think he'll submit to that.
And I think Harris will have to say that too.
Probably Biden first and then when Harris is alone and therefore allegedly the front runner, her polling will be so dismal.
She'll be in the low 20s and in third or fourth place and she'll drop out.
Then I think what's going to happen is that you're going to get Bernie Sanders in the race and maybe AOC and they are going to surge ahead in the polling.
And then, did we get a freeze there?
peter navarro
All right.
All right, let's see when we get Dick back.
And this is like a cliffhanger.
We're going to get Hillary Clinton, a rematch of Hillary versus Donald Trump.
And it's going to be a race in which Bernie Sanders and possibly even AOC may get involved.
In all of this.
Cameron, let me know when we get Dick back on the line.
What's fascinating to me is how this younger generation will come home to Trumpism because of the need, effectively, to raise a family, buy a car, Buy a house.
Of course, Steve goes a long way analyzing this whole Democrat issue of transhumanism where they're trying to neutralize the younger people by putting three virtual reality headsets on them and letting them spin out and live a glorious life in virtual space while they eat ramen noodles instead of steak.
But that's a whole other issue.
What's interesting to me about this 2024 election is right now we are in a situation where Donald Trump clearly is the frontrunner.
There's big questions.
It's like, should he run?
Should he announce before or after the midterms?
We had a fascinating conversation yesterday with Richard Barris in The Six O'Clock Show, where he thinks it would be a huge mistake for Trump to announce before the midterms, because if the Republicans underperform, as he believed they will, Uh, then Trump will be blamed for it and that might potentially weaken him.
Uh, so, uh, this is a, uh, this is a story yet untold.
Uh, Cameron, let me ask you, where are we at here?
Nothing here.
They can get him.
We have him up.
He's ready to go.
He's not there.
Uh, okay.
Um, Let's do this.
We got two and a half minutes left in this segment.
Is Oscar up?
unidentified
Yes.
peter navarro
All right, bring in Oscar now because I got a really important thing to talk about before the show ends about foreigners coming in and scooping up all our housing.
Frightening, by the way.
Oscar, my brother, tell us what you saw this morning.
Give us an update on that because that is frightening in and of itself as well.
unidentified
Sir, Mr. Navarro, good evening.
oscar blue ramirez
Live again from Cappuccino and, you know, in the center of immigration for the documents, that is the multiple migration form that they have failed to give them.
Today, 3,000 migrants, they rushed the National Guard, they crossed over their barrier, their barricade, and they went all the way in front of the offices to demand to the Institute of National Immigration to give them the multiple migration form so they can walk freely.
That did not work.
Then they blocked the street as we, they just habilitated the street again.
The National Guard had to come again and try to decrease the tension that was coexisting right here of these almost between 4,000 to 5,000 migrants that they were camping out, all of them protesting and blocking the streets from basically blocking the citizens from getting to point A to point C on this intersection that is one of the most important intersections So they're blocking the streets and the National Guard came over and cleaned it up.
But it's still, Mr. Navarro, it's still existing.
The aggressiveness, the irregularities, the illegalities in this open border is what it causes right here on the back as you will see people sleeping in the middle of the sidewalk as they are hundreds sleeping right here in the middle of the sidewalk waiting to go to the north border, sir.
peter navarro
Oscar, is the National Guard getting overwhelmed?
I mean, how many are there?
We got about 15 seconds here, but we got to go to a break.
oscar blue ramirez
Today in the morning, it was ridiculous.
There were six of them against 2,000 of them.
Of course, they were going to get overwhelmed.
They were going to get surpassed.
Yes, sir.
It was just ridiculous the way that the Mexican authorities were handling this.
peter navarro
All right.
We've got to take a break now, Oscar.
Stand by.
And we'll be right back in the war room.
Peter K. Navarro in for Stephen K. Bannon.
And this is, by the way, the number one podcast in politics in the world.

Through the remainder of this year of what direction we expect the market to go.
We're going to live and die by CPI.
I would assume.
Right.
And CPI is a third of it is driven by housing.
And so since rents continue to increase and also mortgage rates have increased significantly since the I think it was the March lows, the earlier the lows earlier this year.
I just don't expect that CPI is going to come down in a meaningful way, especially with homebuilder sentiment.
We're getting reports now that homebuilder sentiment is at its all time lows since they started recording it.
And so that doesn't really bode well for folks who want to purchase but are currently renting, being able to get out of rentals, which ultimately would bring down those rent numbers and also help CPI in a meaningful way.
And so until we fix that problem, the housing supply problem, I just don't really see where I can be wildly optimistic or wildly bullish about, you know, even the intermediate term outlook for the market as far as getting out of this place where the Fed is having to intervene and raise rates to kind of cool things off for us.
peter navarro
Peter K. Navarro in for Stephen K. Bannon and That guy's missing the bigger picture.
It's not just supply, it's demand.
And here's what really ticks me off, and if you don't get madder than I am about this, something is wrong.
Foreign buyers over the last 12 months hit a record purchase of American homes of $59 billion.
I'll bet you a lot of money.
Chat room, huh?
Type it out.
Which country do you think, huh?
Which country do you think is the biggest buyer?
Okay, yeah?
China!
China!
Why?
Because, because they, first of all, they steal our jobs, they run up our trade deficit, and they take all of that money, and they come over here and buy our houses.
So that they can have a second home that when the Communist Party fails or when they want a vacation from Xi Jinping, they come on over.
Where are they coming?
unidentified
They're coming to Florida, Florida, and Florida.
peter navarro
The other part of this is incredible.
It's like this is so unfair to Americans as the Federal Reserve is raising interest rates and mortgage rates are getting ready to skyrocket and the home Buying is actually going down significantly as U.S.
citizens who are trying to buy homes with mortgages are pushed out of the market.
Guess what?
44% of the home sales are cash buyers.
And that's a lot of the foreign money that's coming in.
And I saw this firsthand down in Florida.
This last few months, I went down looking to relocate down in Florida.
I'm looking at the housing market there and it's just cash buyers.
It's like you put in an offer and it's like a mortgage.
Now they laugh at that, right?
And so what's my point here?
My point here is that we can't live in a country where American deplorables, blue-collar, middle-class Americans can't buy a friggin' home because the Chinese bought it before them.
With ill-gotten gains.
This is something, this is one of the biggest untold stories we have.
And I tell you what, if I were in the Trump White House right now, we would be all over this.
It's not just housing supply that's lagging.
It's the fact.
The inalterable fact that foreigners are buying up real estate throughout this country is bad enough.
It was bad enough when the friggin' hedge funds started coming in, the Black Rocks of America coming in and buying all apartment buildings en masse, raising everybody's rent, buying Home subdivisions en masse.
Now it's the friggin Chinese coming in and using their ill-gotten gains to drive you out of the housing market.
The only people who are winning are the people who are selling their homes.
But then what?
Then where do you go?
Doesn't work here.
So this is an issue that the War Room is going to be all over about every day of the week.
And it's something that we really have to act on sooner rather than later.
All right, we're gonna finish up this show by going back to the border with Oscar, our trooper down there.
And before the break, we were talking about how there were, I think, what, six National Guards going mano-a-mano against 2,000 illegal aliens that stormed them.
I'm wondering, have you talked to any of these National Guard troops?
Are there any guns fired?
Has anybody gotten hurt?
Which Guard is it?
Is it the Texas National Guard?
The Arizona National Guard?
Who is it, Oscar?
What's going on here?
oscar blue ramirez
Well, over here on the south side of the border, Mr. Navarro, is the Mexican National Guard, and they just released the pathway.
They're playing now.
The vehicles are passing.
The migrants are not blocking.
But the most aggravated situation about this is that 20 minutes before the National Guard arrived and removed the blockage, The neighbors around the community, around a hundred neighbors, they were getting their sticks and stones and they were ready to go a mano a mano one-on-one against the migrants to tell them, do not come to our country, behave in our country, be clean in our country, respect our laws and our constitution in our country, and please do not interrupt Our daily day lives.
They were interrupting this main avenue as they were confronting several vehicles.
The migrants were confronting several vehicles, stopping them, hitting the vehicles and telling them, hey, you know what?
It is blocked.
You're not good until they give us a permit, until they give us our humanitarian visa.
We're going to let you pass.
So the National Guard, because they knew that the community was going to confront the migrants, they came over here on a special operation.
They decreased and they lowered down the tension and they opened up again.
The pathway right here in the street, sir.
peter navarro
Why is the Mexican National Guard, not the military, being deployed?
They've got five National Guard troops against 2,000 aggressive, hostile, illegal aliens disrupting the society.
What is going on?
Why doesn't the Mexican government get more involved about this?
oscar blue ramirez
It is complete incompetence, Mr. Navarro.
It is.
It starts on the border with Mexico and Guatemala.
You have an open border and we have an open border policy with the global compact on migration that is implemented by the United Nations.
And then now it is in the United States of America.
And we are managed by these globalists.
We are managed by these elitists that they're telling us that an open border, it is OK.
And there you have enormous drug trafficking, enormous gun trafficking, enormous smuggling on the part of Guatemala.
The other day we were broadcasting The operation... Oscar, quickly, quickly.
peter navarro
We're down to... Oscar, down to our last 20 seconds.
Just give them your social media, brother.
And you stay safe out there.
You got the last word in this show.
oscar blue ramirez
Thank you so much, Mr. Navarro.
Oscar Blue on Getter, OscarBlueRamirez.com and Oscar Blue on Real American Boys News, sir.
Thank you.
peter navarro
You hit your mark, brother.
Peter K. Navarro in for Stephen K. Bannon.
We'll be back in the War Room tomorrow.
