Because we're going medieval on these people. | |
| You're not going to free shot all these networks lying about the people. | ||
| The people have had a belly full of it. | ||
| I know you don't like hearing that. | ||
| I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
| And where do people like that go to share the big line? | ||

MAGA Media. | |
| I wish, in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience. | ||

Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? | |
| If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Baskin. | |
| I'm your host, Stephen K. Baskin. | ||
| Mitch, I don't want to hurt your reputation, but we really are friends. | ||
| And you've always done exactly what you've said. | ||
| You're a man of your word and you're a man of honor. | ||
| Thank you for being my friend. | ||
| So let's talk about leaders first. | ||
| Mitch McConnell is still going to be a gatekeeper for so many important things that Biden is going to want to do early on. | ||
| Judicial nominations, cabinet appointments, any big legislation is going to have to go through Mitch McConnell. | ||
| The good thing for Joe Biden is that they have a longstanding relationship. | ||
| They served for nearly 25 years together in the Senate. | ||
| So that's an important relationship to watch. | ||
| President Biden's been able to cultivate many unlikely friendships across the aisle. | ||
|

|
with me. | |
| We've also negotiated in good faith on a country needed by partisan leadership. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This isn't about Republican, Democrat. | |
| This is about the things we have to agree on and move together on. | ||
| I think we all agree the most important thing going on in the world is the war in Ukraine. | ||
| I had a chance to call the president last week. | ||
| He said, let me think it over. | ||
| He called back in about 15 minutes and agreed. | ||
| I don't always agree with him, but I do trust him implicitly. | ||
| Get Joe on the phone is shorthand for time to get serious in my office. | ||
| I do like Joe a lot. | ||
| I think he's a good man. | ||
|

|
I went to his son's funeral because I felt his family's brand. | |
| McConnell is more than a skillful politician, according to his wife of 20-plus years, Elaine Chao. | ||
| Chao tells of a sports-loving, compassionate man. | ||
| I liked him because he clearly so cared about Kentucky. | ||
| Now, whether he's actually a practicing homosexual or not, I don't know. | ||
| He was at one time. | ||
| He was kicked out of the army after two weeks for, how do you say, he was an officer, he was molesting an enlisted man, and he got thrown out of the army. | ||
| And his records are not available for anyone to look at. | ||
| You've got Mitch McConnell, his wife Elaine Chao, very closely tied commercially to the Chinese government. | ||
| China's state shipbuilding corporation, largest military contractor in China. | ||
| You've got close commercial ties there. | ||
| And most of the contracts of the goods they ship around the Asian Pacific region come from the Chinese government. | ||
| So what they have is leverage. | ||
| If Mitch McConnell were to take action as a Senate leader that China was really angry about, they could destroy the family business overnight. | ||
| And that's exactly the kind of relationship China wants when they strike these bargains with America's political leaders. | ||
| Okay, welcome. | ||
| Thursday, 29 December in the year of our Lord 2022. | ||
| Right there, an open on Mitch McConnell. | ||
| President Trump said the other day, what do they have on Mitch? | ||
| Well, they probably have a lot, but I think that kind of misses the mark. | ||
| McConnell, you saw the beginning of it. | ||
| He's part of the apparatus. | ||
| He's a central part of the apparatus. | ||
| He gets paid by the apparatus. | ||
| So we're going to have Boris Epstein in here for a second. | ||
| President Trump is going on offense on many different fronts. | ||
| Historic day. | ||
| In the Judeo-Christian West, 29 December in the year of our Lord, 1940, the end of the Blitz, the firebombing of London today and tomorrow, St. | ||
| Paul's Cathedral, all of it, and of course, 29 December, 1170, Canterbury Cathedral, the execution and martyrdom of St. | ||
| Thomas Becket. | ||
| We're going to get to all that. | ||
| We've got Dave Bradd, Philip Patrick. | ||
| Philip, a proud Londoner, right, will join us. | ||
| We're going to also have Colonel Derek Harvey, a lot going on as Putin I think showed his critics and all the MSNBC military analysts that there's still a little fight left in the Russians. | ||
| This is the Russian army that was supposed to be defeated eight months ago. | ||
| Absolutely dropped hell onto Kiev last night with a massive rocket attack. | ||
| I want to start with Boris. | ||
| Boris, first of all, I want to go back to the Russian Kiev. | ||
| You were the very first guy Anywhere. | ||
| I think it was on the eve of the war itself that came out and said, hey, this is, forget everything else, this is a massive strategic mistake for Putin, and he will get bogged down here like we did in Iraq and Afghanistan, and he will get bogged down here like the French and the Americans in Vietnam. | ||
| What did you mean by that? | ||
| And as we're on the, what, the 10th month of this war, and now they're talking about The two sides are talking about coming together. | ||
| New York Times lead story, like ripped from the pages of War Room. | ||
| Lead story of the day, hopes for talks dim in Ukraine as sides dig in. | ||
| Hardline terms keep leaders from table. | ||
| Both sides have these terms you couldn't possibly meet from either side, but they're at least putting out alternatives. | ||
| Boris, what did you mean by it was a strategic mistake for Putin? | ||
| What is your assessment In what, the 10th month coming up on the first year anniversary of what Mitch McConnell says is the number one priority of the Republican Party. | ||
| Steve, honored to be with you. | ||
| Honored to be with the podcast. | ||
| First of all, for Mitch McConnell to say that is absolutely disgusting. | ||
| This country, America, is falling apart. | ||
| There's violence in the streets. | ||
| We have no southern border. | ||
| Our economy is a shambles, in large part thanks to Mitch McConnell and the Union Party. | ||
| And he said the number one priority is the war in Ukraine. | ||
| To go back to almost a year from now, I am proud to have said on this very show to the war room posse, always, signal not noise for the posse, that this was a mistake by Putin. | ||
| And here's why I said it then, and here's why it's borne out to be that way. | ||
| It's not just because I'm clairvoyant, okay? | ||
| The reason, kidding everybody, take it easy, take it easy, media matters, all right? | ||
| Everything's going to be okay. | ||
| You're going to be fine. | ||
| The year's going to hit. | ||
| The reason, Steve, because there's a lot of history there. | ||
| First of all, there's 37 million people in Ukraine, all right? | ||
| It's a big country. | ||
| Second of all, Ukrainians have traditionally fought very hard. | ||
| If you look at, go back hundreds of years, from the uprisings against the czars and the czarinas, from the civil war that was fought after the communist revolution to, of course, World War II. | ||
| And then third, if you look at any of these repo accounts, they don't get resolved the way that the aggressive entity ever thinks they're going to get resolved. | ||
| It just doesn't work that way. | ||
| And here's what you have, is you have this now blood feud going on, and let's just be honest, Zelensky's done a good PR job, right? | ||
| He's recruited all this support all across the world, and I have no idea why America continues to send Hundreds of billions of dollars over there, while again, Camden is falling apart, Newark is falling apart, Chicago is falling apart, Washington D.C. | ||
| is falling apart. | ||
| But it is happening. | ||
| And then you've got Russia being backed by China and in partnership with Iran. | ||
| It is an unbelievably messy, fraught situation, also with Russia having a huge stockpile of nuclear weapons. | ||
| So as I was looking at it 10, almost 11 months ago now, what I saw is Also, the fact of the last 10 years, there's been very heavy fighting between the two parts and outside of Crimea, which Putin was able to annex because of the territorial logistics of it. | ||
| There's never been really a clear, you know, a clear, determinative winner. | ||
| So, as you were looking at the situation, and again, also, Any dictatorial regime, by definition, is going to have rot. | ||
| by definition is going to have internal struggles and problems. | ||
| But I just want to make sure, hang on, the jewel of the crown is not the Dabask and the eastern, you know, industrial mining resources border, which is a border conflict at heart, but the jewel in the crown is the Crimea. | ||
| Correct me if I'm wrong, wasn't that under Obama and Biden and they didn't really do anything when they took over Crimea? | ||
| Well, if you look at the history... Did they just sit there and just let it happen? | ||
| No doubt about it. | ||
| If you look at the history of the last 15 years, Putin has started aggression under every president but President Donald J. Trump. | ||
| It was Georgia under George W. Bush. | ||
| It was Crimea Under Obama, nothing. | ||
| Under President Donald J. Trump, and now you've got the incursion and invasion of Ukraine. | ||
| So the history is very, again, very clear. | ||
| And to anybody who wants to understand anything that's going on geopolitically, you have first to look at history, both recent and long term. | ||
| And under President Trump, this didn't happen. | ||
| And hear me loud and hear me clear, it would have never happened. | ||
| Because Putin and other autocrats respect one thing. | ||
| They respect strength. | ||
| And that is what we had under President Donald J. Trump. | ||
| And now we've got a hopeless, weak, pathetic excuse for an illegitimate president who's in St. | ||
| Croix, vacationing with his corrupt family once again, and they're sending the omnibus, the ominous bus, President Trump calls it, to St. | ||
| Croix to be signed. | ||
| It is a pathetic embarrassment for the United States of America. | ||
| Disgusting. | ||
| So much to go through there. | ||
| I want to go real quickly to J6. | ||
| Three things have happened. | ||
| The J6 committee dropped the subpoena. | ||
| There's a movement in Georgia that I want to get to, and I don't want to give up too much on what's happening in our Georgia. | ||
| And the one that Putin took back under Bush's watch. | ||
| And I want to talk about Abe Hamaday. | ||
| There's huge news in Arizona that Katie Hobbs has been suppressing information about. | ||
| There's actually real votes out there. | ||
| I think in, I think in Pinal County. | ||
| I think they're talking, the local guys out in Pinal County are saying maybe even in Pinal County. | ||
| Let's connect those dots. | ||
| J6 subpoena dropped. | ||
| Why is that a big deal? | ||
| Why did Bennie Thompson drop it? | ||
| And why is it a big deal? | ||
| Last night, coming across a letter from Betty Thompson to President Trump's attorneys, withdrawing the illegal, illegitimate subpoena from the not-duly-organized, from the illegal, unselect committee, and saying, never mind. | ||
| We take it back. | ||
| We capitulate. | ||
| President Trump filed a powerhouse lawsuit against the committee, and instead of actually fighting it in the courts and standing up for what they at least appear to be believing, The committee didn't have to do this. | ||
| Elects Now, withdrawing that subpoena. | ||
| Huge victory for President Trump, the MAGA movement, and every country-loving American who does not want to see witch hunts and 1930s-style show trials in America. | ||
| And by the way, the committee didn't have to do this. | ||
| They could have just let it all expire. | ||
| But they wanted to drop and withdraw the subpoena. | ||
| Why? | ||
| My only logic that I see is because they see real illegal exposure in the lawsuits filed against them. | ||
| You've been Thompson. | ||
| Jamie Raskin, Liz, retired and done forever Liz Cheney and Kinzinger know that what they've done is wrong and it goes way beyond their immunity and speech and debate clause. | ||
| They have harassed and broken our Constitution to attack President Trump. | ||
| They know they've gotten legal exposure and that's why the weak pathetic move by them yesterday on the withdrawal of the subpoena. | ||
| I believe so. | ||
| So you think that they have real legal exposure and that's what they could just let this expire, which everybody anticipated. | ||
| It was kind of a shock that they actually dropped it. | ||
| You think because they're afraid of legal exposure on President Trump's lawsuit? | ||
| I believe so. | ||
| Not just that lawsuit. | ||
| I think all across the board, the speech and debate cause the immunity only goes so far and if you act outside of your duties and if you abuse your power to attack a political adversary and opponent, you've got exposure and that's what I'm seeing through this withdrawal President Trump didn't answer one question, didn't send one piece of paper, he fought the subpoena the whole way, and now it's been withdrawn by the unselected, pathetic, illegal January 6th committee. | ||
| Okay, I want to go to Georgia Arizona. | ||
| Before that, Jamie Raskin announced, I think it was on MSNBC the other night, the Chris Hayes show, that he has a very serious form of, I think, lymphoma cancer. | ||
| Jamie Raskin. | ||
| We're obviously huge political opponents of Jamie Raskin. | ||
| Don't believe anything that he believes in. | ||
| He also just said the other day the Electoral College is one of the biggest threats to democracy. | ||
| I want everybody in the War Room Posse to keep Jamie Raskin in your prayers to make sure he can get through this serious bout with cancer. | ||
| So all the prayers from the War Room Posse and the War Room to Jamie Raskin as he goes through... I think he said he had to go through chemo for a couple weeks. | ||
| Boris, I want to go to Georgia. | ||
| There's rumblings out of Georgia. | ||
| There's rumblings out of... Go ahead. | ||
| I agree with you 100%. | ||
| I want to echo that and all the best wishes and prayers to Jimmy Raskin as he recovers from what seems to be a serious issue. | ||
| Yeah, big issue. | ||
| We want Jimmy to be fit as we get back to fighting. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Okay, I tell you what, short break. | ||
| We got Georgia. | ||
| There's something happening in Arizona. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay? | |
| We're going to get Boris' take on that. | ||
| But also, President Trump's on offense now on True Social, launching hot ones. | ||
| Every couple of hours. | ||
| Also a couple of big interviews. | ||
| Matt Boyle at Breitbart. | ||
| And of course, the team at Revolver. | ||
| Darren Beatty. | ||
| Dr. Darren Beatty and the team. | ||
| Huge, huge interviews coming out with President Trump. | ||
| all next in the war room being in georgia and things are happening in uh... in arizona Talk to me about what's going on in Georgia, for the degree that you can let us know. | ||
| And people have to remember, in 2020, Georgia, I think, was 11,000 votes. | ||
| Arizona's just over 10,000 votes, okay? | ||
| This is what, you add those two, you add a couple, you know, you add, what, 45,000 votes, 40,000 votes in Pennsylvania, whatever it came down to. | ||
| This was, it was tighter than 2016. | ||
| Remember, Donald Trump got 74 million votes. | ||
| It's just unbelievable. | ||
| Incredible. | ||
| Astounding. | ||
| And Biden stole this. | ||
| There's no doubt he stole it. | ||
| Boris, give me your assessment of what's happening in Georgia, and now Abe Hamadeh. | ||
| There's some big news coming out of Arizona right now, and I think it's about Katie Hobbs suppressing information of a miscount in the vote, and I'm hearing it's in Pinal County, not Cochise or Mojave. | ||
| Boris Epstein. | ||
| Steve, well, in Georgia, first of all, huge win, huge win for President Trump and MAGA in the Georgia Supreme Court just a few days ago, where it was determined that the voters, Kellyanne Jefferson, who we both know, who's great, do have standing to challenge the fraudulent 2020 election. | ||
| So now, Bob Chile, the attorney there, and the team are going to have an opportunity to examine the 140,000, 140,000. | ||
| Mail-in and absentee ballots. | ||
| We've been talking about this for a long time. | ||
| Long time coming. | ||
| Major, major legal win there. | ||
| And from what I know, and there's only so much I can say, there's going to be absolutely groundbreaking information, first-person, determinative information coming out, proving once and for all That the cabal of the Democrats and Republicans in Georgia conspired to steal the election. | ||
| So a lot more to come. | ||
| Huge legal win. | ||
| Georgia is on the march. | ||
| We're going to have more information later in the day with Abe Hamadei. | ||
| I think it's smart those guys want to do shows right now for the simple reason they've got to find out what's going on. | ||
| But it could be quite explosive news coming out of Arizona on active suppression. | ||
| It's really explosive because why did Katie Hobbs need to see the recount before it became public? | ||
| I mean, just the notion that you have the candidate running the election and obviously stealing it for herself and her comrades is so banana republic, it is despicable. | ||
| Absolutely total... If this were to happen in Venezuela, okay, the observers, including the United States and all over the world, right, the EU, all the observers would be up in arms saying, Third world, it's a banana republic, it's unacceptable. | ||
| But it's happening right here in Arizona. | ||
| Despicable that that's allowed to happen. | ||
| The fact that Katie Hobbs has not been forced, if she's not honest enough to recuse herself, the fact that she has not been forced to recuse herself is an absolute and total travesty. | ||
| So we know now that she broke the law and demanded to see the recount results first. | ||
| Now they're going to be coming out today, from what we understand, will be a major shift over to Abe Hamadé. | ||
| What is going on in Arizona is unacceptable and has to be litigated to the very end. | ||
| By the way, the appeal, the key thing on Carrie Lake's appeal is that she is asking for the signature verification to be put back in. | ||
| I think this is major because signature verifications is absolutely against Arizona law. | ||
| It's an abomination. | ||
| Those ballots have got to be thrown out. | ||
| And so things are heated in Arizona. | ||
| I don't think people have put this to bed yet. | ||
| A long way to go. | ||
| Politico, I want to get to Mitch McConnell, but the Politico story This gets down to McCarthy and what's going to happen in the House. | ||
| Politico's got their lead story, Boris. | ||
| This morning, Biden's lawyered up, okay, and the lawyers are saying, hey, look, we love what Comer and you guys are running around TV and on War Room and your hair's on fire and you've worked for a year and you have all these requests you've put in and Jim Jordan's put in and Comer's put in. | ||
| How about this? | ||
| When you guys actually get power on the afternoon of the 3rd, get back to us. | ||
| We're going to hit the restart button. | ||
| We're going to take it from the top. | ||
| And that means to me that they're really not going to be giving anything up that you don't have to go all the way to the Supreme Court on. | ||
| And this is a 2024 hearings at all. | ||
| What your assessment of that? | ||
| And do you think the House leadership has titanium stones to force this immediately? | ||
| I absolutely believe. | ||
| that the leadership, the leadership of the committees, have what it takes to force it. | ||
| And this sort of action from the Biden administration is another hope of fact, just like the withdrawal of the J6 illegal subpoena to President Trump. | ||
| They are signaling just how scared they are of Jim Jordan, of Comer, of potentially Jason Smith, who's likely to be the chair of the Ways and Means Committee. | ||
| What you see from the Biden administration is while he's in the same... | ||
| Croix, you know, after setting up his Christmas tree on the night of Christmas Eve, everyone saw that post. | ||
| Oh, here I am on a stool setting up the Christmas tree at 10 p.m. | ||
| or 9 p.m. | ||
| on Christmas Eve. | ||
| Hey, you know, I know Christmas isn't necessarily my holiday, but I know enough to know that people don't set up the tree two hours in advance. | ||
| While Joe Biden has continued to embarrass himself, While Americans froze to death in Buffalo, he's stunning himself in St. | ||
| Croix. | ||
| Republicans are girding for battle, and that's what we're going to have as soon as January 3rd hits. | ||
| And this sort of weak move to say, oh, you have to restart your demands, is another act of capitulation by the Democrats, because they know what's coming. | ||
| But they do understand that this is why Nancy Pelosi is Speaker of the House for another year. | ||
| This is why they took away the appropriations power now from whoever leadership is going to be. | ||
| They took it away now because they understand the way to force the Hunter Biden thing is to cut off the funding of the DOJ, cut off funding of the FBI. | ||
| There has got to be a titanic clash here. | ||
| No doubt about it at all. | ||
| I'm like a rotten Frankenstein. | ||
| going to rope-a-dope you. Is there any doubt in your mind that, Boris, unless you confront this immediately, like on the afternoon of the 3rd, that they're just going to rope-a-dope you and have the mainstream media piling on top of it? | ||
| No doubt about it at all. And like a rotten Frankenstein, I absolutely expect, and we have to demand, the Republicans in the House chop apart this ominous, omnibus bill from the moment they get in power. | ||
| Whatever they have to do, and yes, as you know, there's levers they can pull. | ||
| Yes, it's going to be signed in St. | ||
| Croix by the illegitimate Joe Biden. | ||
| But the moment they get in office, every emergency power available to every chairman of the committee, to the Republican leadership, has to be used to chop apart this rotten Frankenstein of an omnibus bill. | ||
| Okay, Boris, what is your social media so people can follow you over the holiday weekend, over the New Year's weekend? | ||
| Steve, thank you so much. | ||
| A ton happening. | ||
| I want to wish the War of Empathy a Happy New Year. | ||
| 23 is going to be a year of battle, it's going to be a year of fight, and it's going to be a year of offense. | ||
| My information. | ||
| Hot on the website BorisTP.com, hot on theater at BorisTP, hot on Twitter at BorisTP, hot on food social at Boris, and the hottest on the gram, Boris underscore Epstein. | ||
| Stay strong. | ||
| God bless. | ||
| Happy New Year, all offense, and I'll talk to you in the New Year. | ||
| Thank you, Boris, appreciate it. | ||
| I want to go, so the things happening big in Arizona is that Katie Hobbs, it looks like, as her job as Secretary of State, although she's running as governor, actually took an early look at what these recounts were and somehow has suppressed the information coming out. | ||
| I think it's being forced out today on the Attorney General's race, a pomade, but there's a massive scandal brewing here. | ||
| I want to get Dave Brad in here. | ||
| Dave, you've got something that's I think been posted, I don't know, on Reddit or wherever it's been posted, Ballotpedia. | ||
| It's your analysis. | ||
| I want to get back to the reason that the Republican establishment did this. | ||
| They want to take the gavel out of the hands of whoever leadership is going to be and keep it with Nancy Pelosi. | ||
| But you actually went back and showed how they betrayed, how Mitch McConnell betrayed Yeah, I've been watching you, Steve, and the moral outrage you express goes beyond just the trivial, cute little explanations when senators and congressmen get up to the podium and say, I'm going to put in a bill to do this, I'm going to do this. | ||
| It's all trivial. | ||
| In comparison with the moral violations that most all the Republicans commit on a daily basis. | ||
| So I just went back to the 2016 Republican platform and the 2020 platform, and I'll just make it real short. | ||
| I'll just read you three of the short snippets. | ||
| These are all straight in quotes, and I'll put the link up on Brat Economics. | ||
| The federal fiscal burden threatens the security, liberty, and independence of our nation. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Okay, so we just doubled down on that one. | ||
| America's immigration policy must serve the national interest of the United States. | ||
| We support building a wall along the southern border. | ||
| Huh. | ||
| Stop endless wars and bring our troops home. | ||
| Huh. | ||
| And so I can go on, there'll be more listed, but you know, limited government, all of it's in the platform that they pledged to follow, and none of them are following it. | ||
| And so you're right when it comes to this debt ceiling increase, All this cuteness has to end. | ||
| They need to come forward right now. | ||
| And we need to put a platform up available for them to sign their names onto now. | ||
| Not a year from now. | ||
| Perfect. | ||
| Dave, we're going to take a break. | ||
| I got Brett. | ||
| I got Philip Patrick. | ||
| We have Colonel Derek Harvey. | ||
| We're jammed up with talent today in the War Room. | ||
| Stick around. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Spread the word all through Hong Kong. | |
| We will fight till they're all gone We rejoice when there's no more Let's take down the CCD Okay, welcome back Dave Brett, I want you to go back through that again, because as you and I talked in the break, I don't think people fully absorbed this. | ||
| I'm going to talk about what you're talking about as far as the commitment. | ||
| It was the convention. | ||
| It's the platform, right? | ||
| But these are basic commitments that the Republican Party has made to the American people, and particularly for people to vote for them. | ||
| And that, remember, because of COVID, that was really the one from 1620. | ||
| This has been Republican of a Republican Party policy for at least since the rise of the Trump movement. | ||
| Go back over about how they've lied to the American people because this, the impact, he's down at St. | ||
| Croix today in the U.S. | ||
| Virgin Islands sunning at some billionaire, some corrupt billionaire's mansion while, you know, there's going to be a hundred dead in Buffalo. | ||
| The nation's freezing, another massive storm hitting the West Coast. | ||
| This guy's down sunning with the corrupt elites that have basically financed him. | ||
| forever to sign this thing. | ||
| The impact of this omnibus bill has not even begun to, and I gotta tell you something, I'm going to do this tomorrow on South Dakota. | ||
| The two senators, I think, in South Dakota agreed to this, and it's been crickets from Kristi Noem and anybody. | ||
| This bill, because they put the Electoral Count Act in there, and then Jamie Raskin came out and said the Electoral College is the biggest threat to democracy. | ||
| Part of this bill is a total move away from the small states. | ||
| It's a total move. | ||
| It's the beginning of them trying to get a formal process to crush the Electoral College. | ||
| And these small state senators that voted for this, their constituents have to understand, you have to turf them out. | ||
| And what you have to do is you have to confront them all the time now. | ||
| If they're back in the state, you ought to be up in their face saying, hey, I got I got a question. | ||
| What are you doing? | ||
| How are you a collaborationist? | ||
| How are you a collaborationist to the worst elements of the administrative state in the Biden regime? | ||
| Because that's what's happened. | ||
| And South Dakota is a, quite frankly, a disgrace. | ||
| And the people out there, not the people, the good folks in South Dakota, that place is packed with patriots. | ||
| But this is what your elected official, they're laughing at you. | ||
| They're laughing at you, Dave Brat. | ||
| Yeah, that's absolutely right. | ||
| So this is the Republican creed. | ||
| I ran on the Virginia Republican creed. | ||
| And what Republicans deep down want is a positive formulation, right? | ||
| Going back to Reagan-esque themes that you can believe in. | ||
| And before you can believe in something, you got to have trust. | ||
| And so right up there in the Republican creed, this is the 16 platform, the 2020 Republican Party platform, where they're all there making their promises. | ||
| The people, not the government, are the best stewards of our country's God-given resources. | ||
| This is why most people want to vote Republican, when they hear that language about being good stewards, taking care of God's resources. | ||
| And then you work out the logic of what that means, and it means you cannot keep expanding government. | ||
| Especially the federal government, while you're making these claims. | ||
| As you said, these are whopper lies. | ||
| It's sins of omission, too. | ||
| They need to be screaming from the rooftops about this, because it's not about little stuff. | ||
| Even the huge issues we talk about every day on the show, the border, the energy policy, the Russian war, etc. | ||
| All of those pale in comparison to having control over your own government. | ||
| If you don't control the Leviathan and the administrative state first, all the other stuff you're going to fail on. | ||
| And that's why Republicans are so frustrated. | ||
| All Republicans promise this stuff. | ||
| I ran on this stuff, right, on six planks, because I wanted to beef up my, you know, conservative Republican bonafide age when I was running as a Tea Party guy. | ||
| And I said, there's nothing wrong with the creed. | ||
| The only thing wrong with the creed is that no one follows it. | ||
| And so Republicans need to get back to the basics here. | ||
| We need to get a platform up. | ||
| Doug DeGroote, one of the heroes out in Los Angeles, has a great website with a lot of these themes out there, and he's asking for signatures, and it's called America's Promise. | ||
| Go out and search for America's Promise. | ||
| Sign on to that thing. | ||
| Send it to your congressmen, senators, I don't care what party they're in. | ||
| But we're losing it. | ||
| The left has a religion. | ||
| Let me bring in Philip. | ||
| I recommend the book by Vivek Ramaswamy for people to review that on Woke Inc. | ||
| But there's a competing religion out there, and if we don't tell the truth in our own religion, we're hypocrites as well. | ||
| Let me bring in Philip. | ||
| Here's the thing about the omnibus is to take power away from the America First and MAGA We won the House and they gave Nancy Pelosi effectively the gavel for another year. | ||
| It is a variantly anti-Trump, anti-MAGA, anti-America First. | ||
| And every one of these senators, Barrasso, all the guys in the small states, It's bad enough, the others, but everybody in the small states. | ||
| And I will tell you, Tom Cotton, your presidential ambitions, this is the mark that will never go away. | ||
| People remember this. | ||
| Because this is when we need to pivot off of taking the House. | ||
| All the work you did in taking the House, Tom Cotton gave away. | ||
| Everybody that was a collaboration. | ||
| And I want to hear, oh, it's another 10% increase in the defense. | ||
| And number one, we should not be increasing the defense budget. | ||
| 10%. | ||
| I'm the biggest hawk in the world. | ||
| You donate. | ||
| First off, when they can't deliver an audit, as bad as the Ukrainians, the skim coming off in Ukraine is terrible. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Look at the Pentagon. | ||
| They can't audit the budget over there? | ||
| No audit, no money. | ||
| How about that? | ||
| No audit, no money. | ||
| Get people started and start firing some of these generals. | ||
| Some of these woke generals ought to be cashiered. | ||
| Lincoln did it, right? | ||
| Roosevelt did it before. | ||
| In World War II, when they pulled Marshall from nowhere, they canned all the senior guys, got rid of them. | ||
| And they tell you about one of the reasons we won World War II, and militarily we performed so well, they were firing generals all the time. | ||
| Not like now, not where they just kind of bounce around. | ||
| The defensive budget is an embarrassment. | ||
| It's full of corruption, it's full of crap, it's full of too much. | ||
| This thing, and here's a problem with this, the omnibus, it ain't financed. | ||
| It's going to just come, it's just printing money. | ||
| You had Russ Vought, we got Russ Vought and all these tigers and tough people that are doing this 10-year budget to get to balanced budget, and they're working through things, they're working all night, and they come up with really a smart plan, and you come out with this. | ||
| They're just laughing in your face. | ||
| And who's laughing in your face? | ||
| Who's laughing in your face is establishment Republicans that were not really part of the same party. | ||
| You can't have this Big Ten anymore because what they believe is diametrically opposed to populist, nationalist, traditionalist America. | ||
| They just don't believe it. | ||
| They don't believe. | ||
| They're globalists. | ||
| They believe more in the secular religion of the party of Davos than they believe in the Judeo-Christian West, and they show it through their actions. | ||
| Don't believe they're happy. | ||
| Daines was down there with Carey Lake. | ||
| I told Carey Lake, why do you have this bozo on the stage with you? | ||
| He's a clown. | ||
| He's just trying to suck up, and he has no value. | ||
| That's where they kind of pitch him off, and then he goes and votes for this thing. | ||
| Brad, hang on for one second. | ||
| I want to bring in Philip Patrick. | ||
| Yeah, go ahead. | ||
| I just want to throw in one sentence. | ||
| The House is not innocent here either, and this is why leadership matters. | ||
| The rest of us trying to get a megaphone to get stuff out in the press is very difficult, but leadership can walk up to that microphone and message on the budget and the omnibus at any time in the House, and they have totally failed to take leadership. | ||
| They've failed to provide a platform for the last... | ||
| Let's leave the last election cycle out of it. | ||
| We've been talking about the lame duck for a month or six weeks before the election. | ||
| Hey, it's going to happen. | ||
| They're going to do some crazy things. | ||
| Now, we killed the deck ceiling. | ||
| We killed the amnesty. | ||
| There's other things we killed in there. | ||
| But McCarthy showed no leadership. | ||
| By the way, they don't have respect for him. | ||
| They gave the gavel to Nancy Pelosi. | ||
| How much respect do they have for him? | ||
| They don't have respect for him. | ||
| They gave, understand something, Nancy Pelosi is still the Speaker of the House where it counts. | ||
| The anvil of appropriations you don't have. | ||
| This is, why do you think, okay, all this stuff is inextricably linked. | ||
| Why is the lead story in Politico, Biden lawyers up and the lawyers are laughing at you? | ||
| Hey, here's what we're going to do. | ||
| We're going to reset and start at the beginning. | ||
| Resend all your stuff and we'll consider it because they know you don't have the ability to cut off the money. | ||
| This is what Mitch McConnell got you. | ||
| Mitch McConnell and his CCP wife, because she's totally tied up with the CCP. | ||
| That was Peter Schweitzer in that cold open this morning. | ||
| All their money comes from the CCP. | ||
| The father, all the money comes from the father, and the father is a shipping magnate. | ||
| He's totally, totally, completely bought and paid for by the CCP. | ||
|

|
1000%. | |
| So this is what you got. | ||
| This is where you're saying, hey, Phillip Patrick, I want to bring you in. | ||
| The issue of continuing to do this madness and saying Ukraine's our number one priority and having no financial plan. | ||
| Okay, how long can this continue to go on before the global capital markets start? | ||
| Already you've got everybody in the world is sitting there trying to get another currency besides the US dollar to do their transactions. | ||
| All the bricks, everybody's trying to think of a basket of currencies, some sort of digital, maybe they go back to gold base, but they don't want the dollar because of this madness, sir. | ||
| Yeah, it's absolutely spot on and we've said it before, but we're heading to the point of no return. | ||
| And look, I agree with you on a number of things. | ||
| First of all, obviously, there is no funding for this spending. | ||
| It's going to amount to the same thing we've been doing for a long time, which is just creating more money to fund Nonsense. | ||
| Should we be increasing defense spending here in the United States? | ||
| Absolutely not. | ||
| The defense budget is colossal, and this isn't the time to be doing that. | ||
| What concerns me more is the spending outside of defense, right? | ||
| Millions of dollars to fund be-friendly highways, right? | ||
| STEM education using dirt bike culture. | ||
| Millions to create LGBTQ museums. | ||
| No doubt the other letters will get their own museums soon enough. | ||
| You look at the spending packages. | ||
| The word salmon appears 48 times. | ||
| The word inflation appears only 19 times, right? | ||
| It's this wasteful spending for me that's so problematic. | ||
| Let me be very clear about something. | ||
| This has become a game. | ||
| Enormous last-minute spending bills like this are put together by design. | ||
| They contain important things, important spending, but they purposefully lump in special interest handouts, pork barrel projects like alphabet museums and salmon projects. | ||
| And what it does is it forces even fiscally responsible legislators to feel compelled to vote for the budget. | ||
| We can't, after all, not fund the military, let's say. | ||
| But these omnibus bills are a take it or leave it proposition. | ||
| And in my mind, the political process today has just become a parody of itself. | ||
| But the size and cost of these political games year after year after year are growing larger. | ||
| You know, do they think that they can kick the can further down the road indefinitely? | ||
| Thinking the next Congress, the next president will figure it out. | ||
| What they don't know is that there's a wall. | ||
| And sooner or later, that can's going to come bouncing back. | ||
| And when it does, like I said, that's the point of no return. | ||
| These are dangerous games that are being played today. | ||
| You have this concept of fiscal domination where these legislatures or these governments just continue to pass these massive unfunded discretionary spending bills that happens in other countries too with the big social safety net and the huge increases in defense spending for the endless wars. | ||
| But then you've had the compliance of the central banks. | ||
| Right now we're in a schizophrenic situation. | ||
| Your bettors, remember, the audience, they all think you breathe through your mouth and you're a bunch of morons, right? | ||
| So here's what your bettors are doing. | ||
| They're putting out massive stimulus bills, right? | ||
| Massive stimulus bill. | ||
| At the same time, they're starting to tighten credit and raise interest rates. | ||
| Money costs more. | ||
| The time value of money costs more. | ||
| So, Phillip Patrick, what is the global capital market is basically just going to say, hey, we've had enough of this. | ||
| This is madness. | ||
| Listen, I think next year is going to get very, very sticky. | ||
| I think 2023 is going to be tough, tough, tough for the markets, but. | ||
| You know, we're seeing the signs already. | ||
| And, you know, we talk about raising interest rates and the effects that that's going to have on the government, right, in terms of managing debt. | ||
| But let's not forget, the government can just print money to service their own debt. | ||
| It's individuals who's also, over the last 12, 13 years, amassed massive amounts of debt. | ||
| As those interest rates creep up, that's going to have a crippling effect. | ||
| And that's the difference between the Volcker days and today. | ||
| Hang on for one second. | ||
| I got Colonel Derek Harvey. | ||
| We got Dave Bratt from Liberty. | ||
| We got D. Philip Patrick from Birch Gold. | ||
| Next hour we're going to have Dr. Robert Malone, Naomi Wolf, Tony Lyons. | ||

| Hey, if I can do it, anybody can do it because I am a moron in this. | ||
| Philip, we're going to actually continue on. | ||
| We've been doing a series that's totally free from Birchgold about the end of the dollar empire. | ||
| And this is going to be the politics of money, as we've been saying, is going to be massive in 23 and 24. | ||
| You've got to get this Birchgold. | ||
| We're working on another installment that we hope to have out. | ||
| By mid-January, maybe late January, but I want everybody to go to Birchgold now, birchgold.com slash Bannon, and you get the first two installments totally free. | ||
| Something to read over the New Year's weekend and get up to speed. | ||
| The End of the Dollar Empire. | ||
| First is the politics of money, about how the country was formed and what a big deal it was. | ||
| The second part is the end of the dollars, the reserve currency, and that is something That our enemies, not allies, our enemies are working on non-stop. | ||
| Philip, how do people get to you? | ||
| Because you're going to become even a bigger part of the show going forward because money and debt ceiling and debt, all of it is going to be such an integral part of even more than what we've done before, which is pretty central to our mission. | ||
| It's going to become even bigger as these fights get nastier. | ||
| Sir, how did they get to you? | ||
|

Thank you. | |
| Yeah, Phillip's putting stuff up all the time, and make sure you go check out and talk to the guys at Birchgold. | ||
| Now more than ever, this whole experience of the Worm is to immerse you in information. | ||
| You're a free man or a free woman. | ||
| You make your own decisions, okay? | ||
| But we want to immerse you with information that gives you a broader range, a broader spectrum of possibilities on how and where and when to make those decisions. | ||
| Phillip, thank you so much in this holiday week for taking time away. | ||
| Thank you as always, Steve. | ||
| Dave Brat, how do people, I want to make sure everybody's getting to you, particularly on, was it Brat Economics on, and I'm so glad your wife named it appropriately, not your juvenile, which you wanted to name it, because you're putting out great stuff. | ||
| We're going to even get into more of this as we go on, because this thing is such an abomination, and it shows you the course of the country. | ||
| What they propose, which Mitch McConnell, these guys in this, the collaborationists have made this happen. | ||
| For the infrastructure bill for the for the for the Recovery Act for everything that every every Biden quote unquote success, which is just taking us down the road to perdition quicker. | ||
| It was all because of collaborationist. | ||
| Republicans, and they have to be held to account. | ||
| The mystery of this thing, of the election, is that the established, the most hardcore of the established Republicans, that list themselves as Republicans, are not, do not believe anything you believe. | ||
| Fifteen percent, and that's what tipped these House seats, and that's what quite frankly tipped these seats. | ||
| This is what happened to Carrie Lake in the stealing of it. | ||
| One of the things that exacerbated that were there absolutely the McCain crowd out there. | ||
| It's just not going to vote for anything Trump in this in this omnibus bill was an anti-Trump anti-MAGA anti-American first piece of legislation that took the gavel MAGA had a win. | ||
| They don't want MAGA to have control. | ||
| And they understand your ability to defund things and to confront these people where it counts in Washington, D.C., which is money, is what they took away from us. | ||
| Now, we've got Dave, and we'll get Derek Harvey up here in a second, but we've got a massive piece of leverage that they're all over. | ||
| You've got to understand what's going on is the three things are fighting. | ||
| The House speakership behind the scenes is intense. | ||
| The RNC chairmanship is intense. | ||
| And the death ceilings are already intense behind the scenes. | ||
| This audience right here, write this down, and I told you to write it down a year ago, but write it down on 29 December in the year of our Lord 2022. | ||
| You, this audience, the head of the creditors committee, you're going to get blamed for jeopardizing the full faith and credit of the United States. | ||
| I just want you to understand this. | ||
| The best people in the country, the backbone of the country, the people that pay their taxes, that work hard every day, you are going to be blamed starting about 30, 45 days. | ||
| You are jeopardizing the full faith in credit because you're sitting there going, nah, I don't think we ought to increase the debt ceiling. | ||
| I think it ought to just stay where it is and you guys figure it out. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And they're going to go absolutely crazy. | ||
| Because remember, in passing this piece of legislation, when they didn't have the financing set up, no matter the lies and the spins and the misrepresentation, at the end of the day, They need the Federal Reserve to print money. | ||
| And to do that right now, you need to raise the debt ceiling. | ||
| And that's where we got them. | ||
| And this is going to get so nasty. | ||
| You think the ones we have before are nasty? | ||
| You ain't seen nothing yet. | ||
| Dave Brat, am I wrong in any of that, sir? | ||
| No, I just want to remind everybody out there, Thomas Massey had a great idea. | ||
| Just fund it all right now. | ||
| Fund the government at 90% of current spending through a CR. | ||
| Then the Republicans can't get blamed for a shutdown. | ||
| We've totally funded the government at 90%, giving it a 10% haircut, which it needs. | ||
| Go out to Doug DeGroote. | ||
| Again, America made promise. | ||
| Everybody go there. | ||
| That's where your heart is, right? | ||
| That's where your faith is in these promises. | ||
| The more people sign up on that thing and share it with your congressmen and senators, the better. | ||
| And no, your analysis is spot on. | ||
| We know exactly what's coming. | ||
| Our team isn't messaging. | ||
| It's very hard to hold firm up there, right? | ||
| You have the entire world media apparatus beating down on you every day. | ||
| We'll give you this. | ||
| You're so unbeatable. | ||
| Our team is messaging because the leadership is part of the problem. | ||
| That's the one thing I disagree with President Trump. | ||
| What do they have on Mitch McConnell? | ||
| They don't need anything on Mitch McConnell. | ||
| They're not blackmailing Mitch McConnell with all the stuff you could blackmail him for. | ||
| They're not blackmailing Mitch McConnell. | ||
| Mitch McConnell is one of the architects. | ||
| They're deeply into just calling somebody Republican. | ||
| It's deeper than Rhino. | ||
| Rhino's kind of like the swamp. | ||
| It's too cutesy a term. | ||
| They're part of the problem. | ||
| Dave, how do people get to you at Liberty, and how do they get to your social media? | ||
| Yep, just brateconomics at Getter. | ||
| All the ideas on the show are just mine. | ||
| I don't speak on behalf of any institution. | ||
| And go to American Made Promise. | ||
| Doug DeGroote has done it. | ||
| Herculean Lift, and he's a good man. | ||
| I hope they're not teaching this stuff down at Liberty. | ||
| I'm just kidding. | ||
| It's called Liberty for a Reason. | ||
| It is the great university that focuses on liberty and freedom, the Constitution, and the basis, the foundational elements of the Judeo-Christian West. | ||
| Dave Brat, thank you so much, brother. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| God bless. | ||
| Happy New Year, everybody. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Thank you, brother. | ||
| 90 seconds. | ||
