Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people. | |
| I got a free shot at 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 try 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 lie? | ||
| 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? | |

War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Vance. | |
| Okay, welcome. It is Tuesday, 21 February, Year of the Lord 2023. | ||
| Putin gives his state of the nation and throws down hard in the United States. | ||
| Joe Biden, we're kind of wandering into this thing. | ||
| Joe Reek joins us at MyPatriotSupply. | ||
| Joe, why now do people have to – people who don't consider themselves preppers and consider people that are like preppers, friends, nice, they like them, but they think they're kind of screwballs. | ||
| Why now more than ever do people need to call your organization and at least get a consultant on the phone to walk through what you guys have? | ||
| Well, I think people are experiencing exactly what's being talked about personally. | ||
| You know, they see when they go to the grocery stores, they see the news articles, and they see disasters happening right in their backyards, you know, for what happened over there in Palestine. | ||
| It doesn't have to be a global disaster. | ||
| It doesn't have to be a major hurricane for people to want to get prepared. | ||
| For example, with news of Russia pulling out of the nuclear arms treaty this morning, our sales for potassium iodide tabs, our dosimeter cards, the same radiation detection cards that the military uses, our EMP protection Faraday bags are all being purchased right now along with our emergency food. | ||
| And people are taking notice right now, Steve. | ||
| In fact, the fact is this, you know, let's talk about the food. | ||
| The fact is, farmers produced less food in the U.S. last year, and this trend is likely going to continue in this year's harvest. | ||
| In fact, the USDA predicts that the U.S. citrus output will decline 12 % this year. | ||
| Last year, acres harvested in 2022 of potatoes was down 4%. | ||
| And production for both corn and soybeans declined from last year according to the 2022 crop production annual summary. | ||
| So things are happening and people are going to start experiencing the higher costs in food. | ||
| People are going to start experiencing the food shortages that we've been talking about for the past year and a half. | ||
| It's coming to their doorsteps. | ||
| And with talks about nuclear war, talks about, you know, fights over there in Europe with Russia and in Ukraine, has a lot of people nervous and wanting to get prepared. | ||
| And a lot of people are thinking... | ||
| They should be nervous. By the way, if you told me a year ago for that element of it, and I'll get Cortez back here in a second, I said, no, no, no, you're just over worrying. | ||
| But hey, now their action, here's what's so disturbing. | ||
| Particularly coming out of the military back in the 70s and in the 80s when people had tactical nuclear weapons for tactical use. | ||
| And that was scary enough then. | ||
| But there was never this thing bandied about and kind of in conversation, particularly between nations, that that could actually be something that might be used. | ||
| This rhetoric and talk is extremely dangerous. | ||
| And that's why I'm saying we're sleepwalking into something we have no earthy idea how awful this could be. | ||
| And this is why people now, it's your responsibility. | ||
| First off, about self-reliance. | ||
| Your responsibility to take care of yourself and your family. | ||
| And you've got to make that a priority. And where things you would think were kind of screwball a couple of years ago, think about what you're hearing today. | ||
| This is what you're hearing every day in the news. | ||
| And it's now time for you to act. | ||
| Joe Reek. Yeah, you know, 10 years ago, you would be considered one of the crazies if you were thinking about all this stuff happening, about wanting to get prepared, wanting to be self-sufficient. | ||
| You'd be one of the crazy ones. | ||
| Now you're crazy not to. | ||
| With all that we have going on, with all that we've been through the past several years, it's becoming more and more of an important thing for families to consider. | ||
| You need to get prepared. | ||
| Because, Steve, the more people are prepared, the better off everybody is going to be. | ||
| But nobody can do it except for yourself. | ||
| And that's why it's so important to go to MyPatriotSupply.com, talk with one of our preparedness specialists. | ||
| In fact, give us a call right now. | ||
| You can call us at 866- 229-0927. | ||
| We have preparedness specialists standing by that can help families, that can help you if you're not quite sure of where to start or what to get. | ||
| We can guide you through whatever works best for you and your family. | ||
| But the point is, you've got to do it now because there will be a time that it's going to be too late to get prepared. | ||
| And I'll tell you what, it's a lot better to prepare before an emergency than during or even afterwards, Steve. | ||
| All right. To yourself and your family. | ||
| Joe, thank you so much for taking time out during that. | ||
| I know you're really busy to come on. | ||
| I appreciate it. Thanks, Steve. | ||
| Be safe. Thanks, brother. | ||
| I want to make sure my staff, my guys, my production guys, we got to get the more of the satellite, all the other phones and stuff and all this other stuff on here daily. | ||
| People need to know and get access to this. | ||
| Cortez, you would have said people were crazy a couple of years in doing this. | ||
| But I got to tell you, we talk about managed decline. | ||
| This is where the bottom's falling out. | ||
| The tale of two cities, East Palestine, Ohio, and Leh is going to be on in a second, and Ukraine. | ||
| I want you to talk about the economy of our nation, how it's impacting people. | ||
| Here's what I want to say something about before Cortez starts. | ||
| I'm really proud of this audience because you guys stood up and we got the head of the EPA canceled the thing in Africa. | ||
| He's heading back. He's going to go to East Palestine, I think, to get there before Trump. | ||
| I hear Mike DeWine's heading down there. | ||
| They're all now on... | ||
| It's all a priority. | ||
| It's a huge priority. The people, the deplorables in East Palestine, you're the number one priority. | ||
| You're the number one priority because they thought about it and they said, you know... | ||
| I shouldn't be in Africa on a climate change boondoggle with all these celebrities. | ||
| I should actually be in East Palestine with the hardworking people there. | ||
| And Mike DeWine said the same thing. | ||
| You know, I don't think I've spent enough time in East Palestine. | ||
| Maybe it was a little they're a little uncertain when I said you could drink the water. | ||
| But they asked me if I would drink the water. | ||
| I said, well, I would drink bottled water. | ||
| And they said, would you bathe in this? | ||
| Well, I'd probably bathe in bottled water. | ||
| So Mike DeWine is going to make it a priority. | ||
| Attorney General Yost, can you please step up to the plate and impanel a criminal grand jury today and let's stop the nonsense. | ||
| Let's get to the bottom of what actually happened because now they're blaming the fire chief. | ||
| Can you believe that, Cortez? They're blaming the fire chief in a hamlet of 4,000 people, sir? | ||
| It's disgusting, but thankfully it's not going to work. | ||
| Why? Because of the organization and the motivation of all the patriots out there of the deplorables. | ||
| Regarding compelling these elected officials and these corporate chieftains to do the right thing, to borrow a phrase from Ronald Reagan that he liked to use, if they won't see the light, let them feel the heat. | ||
| Well, clearly they are feeling the heat here, and they should. | ||
| But, Steve, to your point about the tale of two cities, about the contrast here at home versus this massive escalation abroad that only pleases the Davos set and defense contractors and permanent Washington, as we speak right now during this show, The stock of Home Depot is down 5 % on the day, just for today. | ||
| Why? Because it issued a very dire earnings report because the American consumer is totally spent. | ||
| I think we'll get into credit cards either at this juncture or some point soon. | ||
| Credit card debt now is almost a trillion dollars, trillion with a T, in the United States at the highest interest rate ever. | ||
| above 20 % average credit card interest rate, highest ever in the United States. | ||
| So you have a situation where a store that is as important as Home Depot, and again, as I often say, no fan of management of Home Depot. | ||
| They are totally woke like most big companies in America. | ||
| But regardless, it's a key gauge, a key reflection of the health of the American consumer. | ||
| Home Depot is telling us, the data on credit cards continues to tell us, that the American consumer is tapped and spent. | ||
| And yet, at a time like that, instead of focusing on rebuilding the American economy and prosperity for middle-class people, instead of focusing on securing our own border, which is absolutely out of control, where a tsunami of trespassers continue to pour into this country, Bringing all kinds of dangers, including economic dangers, by competing unlawfully and unjustly in the labor market against Americans who see their unreal wages crashing. | ||
| Instead of focusing on those kinds of tangible issues which really matter to every single American, prosperity and security in this country Instead, we are projecting overseas, not focusing on Ohio and East Palestine, instead on East Ukraine. | ||
| Enough of this madness. | ||
| And that's what it is. It's absolutely madness. | ||
| We're standing up against it as we have been now for almost a full year, saying we demand a foreign policy, America first foreign policy of realism and restraint, and the focus needs to be internally to the problems of the United States. | ||
| Can I play the chalk talk? | ||
| Can we play the credit card chalk talk? | ||
| Let me play that real quickly so it's so good. | ||
| It gets all the numbers up there. | ||
| Let's play that first and then come back to Cortez. | ||
| A trillion dollars in credit card debt. | ||
| That's trillion with a T. Let's look at the sad reality of soaring credit card balances plus Biden's crushing inflation and what it means for working class Americans in a chalk talk. | ||
| $986 billion in credit card debt, by far the highest ever. | ||
| And also last quarter, the biggest increase year over year ever. | ||
| Also highest ever, The interest rate on those cards, now over 20 % because of Biden's inflation. | ||
| Almost half of Americans now carry a credit card balance. | ||
| That number has increased 18 % year over year. | ||
| That balance on average, $7,500. | ||
| So to retire this balance, let's talk about what it means, real world, kitchen table reality. | ||
| To retire this balance, if you can afford $700 a month and add no new debt, it'll be gone in a year. | ||
| If you can only afford $200 a month and add no new debt, It's going to take five years. | ||
| This is the reality of the economic crisis in our country right now. | ||
| Now, we can fix this, but it's going to take a lot of guts, particularly from the House GOP, in upcoming debt limit negotiations. | ||
| That's what this all leads to, correct, Cortez? | ||
| We've got to get control of the spending out of control. | ||
| This ought to be emblazoned and burned into the memory of every Republican negotiating that, Dr. | ||
| Cortez? Absolutely. | ||
| And let me dive into this, too, a little bit more, because there probably are some folks out there, understandably, who will say, well, wait a second. | ||
| You know, I manage my budget very carefully, and I don't take on credit card debt. | ||
| I don't buy things that I can't afford. | ||
| These people made their own bed. | ||
| Let them lie in it, okay? And there is an extent of that, to be sure, right? | ||
| Certainly at the federal level, in terms of the public debt, and at the personal level. | ||
| But when we look at the data recently, Steve, it's very different. | ||
| And both the spending data as well as the polling data tell us that lately, the reason that credit card debt is exploding in recent quarters, it's not about luxuries. | ||
| It's not about people spending exorbitantly living beyond their means. | ||
| It's about being able to afford the essentials of life. | ||
| about being able to pay the utility bill, the car bill, and still have something left over to buy groceries for the family. | ||
| That is the reality right now, is that Americans are being pressed into a corner where their only option to live is to run up extremely risky, high-interest credit card debt, high-interest that is getting higher As time goes on. | ||
| This is an incredibly combustible situation in the United States right now. | ||
| By the way, that trillion dollars in credit card debt, it's not just by dollar figure the highest ever. | ||
| It's also increasing at the highest pace ever, year over year. | ||
| So when you combine that kind of accumulation of debt with rising interest rates, unfortunately, you have the makings. | ||
| of absolute economic misery. | ||
| The middle and lower income segments of the population today, Steve, they are already in an extremely deep recession, I would argue teetering upon perhaps a depression. | ||
| It's not an exaggeration to say that if you take an honest look at the numbers. | ||
| Again, the time to focus is here, not to be borrowing billions and billions of dollars to escalate a war 5,000 miles away. | ||
| The border that matters is the United States. | ||
| And the only checkbooks that should matter are not Zelensky's open checkbook, which he has right now, but the checkbooks of American families who are struggling as reflected by the numbers. | ||
| And again, though, too, I don't want to just curse the darkness. | ||
| We can fix this. | ||
| We can. A huge part of it, though, is going to be getting the exorbitant borrowing and spending by the federal government under control, and the debt ceiling is going to be the lever, unfortunately the only lever because of the omnibus that was passed, but it is the only lever that is front and center to control things again. | ||
| Everybody's talking about exploding food crisis, and now Russia and China got us over the barrel on that. | ||
| Let's play from a year ago. | ||
| This is Dr. Cortez from virtually a year ago. | ||
| Let's play the chalk talk. | ||
| Biden is escalating economic war against Russia, and it is bringing us nothing but chaos and hyperinflation. | ||
| Let's look at some of the numbers. | ||
| Crude oil hit $130 a barrel overnight. | ||
| To put that in context, when Donald Trump was still president, election day in 2020, when America was energy dominant, Crude oil was $41 a barrel. | ||
| Let's look at wheat because I think food prices may be even more consequential than the terrible energy situation. | ||
| When Biden was inaugurated, wheat traded for just over $6 per bushel. | ||
| By Thanksgiving, this past Thanksgiving, it had already gotten to well above $8 because of his inflationary policies. | ||
| It now soars limit up in futures trading all the way to $12.60. | ||
| Wheat has doubled. One of the main reasons? | ||
| Because Russia is dominant in global fertilizer markets. | ||
| Russia and Belarus, its ally, together they control 40 % of the global potash trade. | ||
| They also control two-thirds of the ammonium nitrate trade. | ||
| So there is a fertilizer crisis, which is producing a food crisis, added to the energy crisis. | ||
| This is the chaotic world of Joe Biden and the progressive left. | ||
| Our host, Stephen K. Band. | ||
| Cortez, that was amazing. | ||
| It's from a year ago. You talked about the fertilizer problem was going to happen. | ||
| Can you give us a quick update? Because I know you get a punch. | ||
| You bet. Well, there's a Bloomberg story over the weekend, and the title was, Russia and China have a stranglehold on world food security. | ||
| Stranglehold on world's food security. | ||
| Why? Mainly because of Russia's dominance in the global fertilizer market. | ||
| This thankfully isn't a massive problem for the United States because we in Canada produce a lot of fertilizer, but for the rest of the world, especially the emerging, the developing world, places like Africa, absolute crisis. | ||
| Some of the unintended consequences of this needless escalation. | ||
| So Steve, yes, we pride in trying to come up with tomorrow's news today and sometimes it's even next year's news today. | ||
| Last spring, we were trying to stand up and yell stop about this escalation. | ||
| Thankfully, the Patriots are coming our way on this issue. | ||
| Please follow all of my work. | ||
| You can see me at the Twitter. I'm at CortezSteve, Cortez with an S, and you can see my very newest chalk talk on dangerous credit card balances soaring. | ||
| Cortez, one day I'm going to get you to start reading the Financial Times of London, but you see the headline today, Biden vows unwavering support as long as it takes and how much it takes. | ||
| I just want everybody in the audience to understand that you're writing the checks. | ||
| Joe Biden's committing checks that you're going to end up signing. | ||
| Steve Cortez, honored to have you on here. | ||
| Thanks. We've got a lot more to go through on immigration. | ||
| We've got a lot more to go through in the economy. | ||
| We'll get Cortez back tomorrow. Thank you, sir. | ||
| The great Christina Cromo, who's now the chairman of the Michigan GOP, is going to join us momentarily about her victory and the meaning of it over the weekend. | ||
| I first want to go to Michael Patrick Leahy. | ||
| Leahy, there's other breaking news on East Palestine. | ||
| Remember, the president's going to be there tomorrow, President Trump. | ||
| Walk us through what the latest is, sir, in your reporting. | ||
| Breaking at the OhioStar.com as we speak. | ||
| A spokesperson with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency told The Ohio Star, our great reporter Hannah Poling there, on Monday, that, wait for it Steve, the fire chief of the East Palestine Fire Department was the individual who ordered the February 6th controlled burn of vinyl chloride following the catastrophic train derailment on February 3rd. | ||
| Quote, EPA did not order the controlled burn. | ||
| The local fire chief was the incident commander who made the decision in consultation with Norfolk Southern, local law enforcement, and response officials from Ohio, end quote, the EPA Region 5 spokesperson told the Ohio Star. | ||
| We tried to reach East Palestine Chief Keith Drabek for comment. | ||
| He did not comment. EPA is kind of trying to throw the The fire department chief of East Palestine, Ohio, under the bus. | ||
| Our understanding is the legal authority rests with the EPA, not with the local fire chief. | ||
| But hang on. | ||
| Don't bury the lead here. | ||
| Go back. The EPA. Walk through the EPA. It was the fire chief in consultation with. | ||
| Give the all-star list that the EPA just said was the consultation. | ||
| Read it to me again. Here's the exact quote. | ||
| That our great reporter Hannah Poling got from the EPA Region 5 spokesperson late last night. | ||
| Quote, EPA did not order the controlled burn. | ||
| The local fire chief was the incident commander who made the decision in consultation with Norfolk Southern, local law enforcement, and response officials from Ohio. | ||
| End quote. That's what the EPA said. | ||
| Last night to the- You know what? | ||
| In missing in that, Leahy, I noticed that one category missing is anybody with the EPA. Isn't that odd? | ||
| They finally, by the way, people have to understand you're following this drama along at home. | ||
| Leahy and his team went to the EPA last Tuesday, a week ago. | ||
| It took them this long to get their lie right, right? | ||
| And they came back, and it's interesting. | ||
| EPA is in everybody's face on every issue in the world. | ||
| On this one, I notice no EPA member is of the War Council there in East Palestine when the fire chief just unilaterally makes this decision. | ||
| Also, the head of the EPA is no longer on his boondoggle. | ||
| In Africa on climate change with the celebrities, right? | ||
| He is now en route or going to East Palestine, Ohio, sir? | ||
| Yes, we confirmed that with the EPA. Interestingly enough, April Ryan, of course, at the Griot broke the story on Thursday that he was going to Africa with some Hollywood types on Saturday. | ||
| However, just about the same time we reported that, On Saturday morning here, April Ryan put a tweet out, said that it had been postponed. | ||
| We confirmed that it has been postponed with the EPA this morning. | ||
| And so Michael Regan is headed to East Palestine today, as is we also confirmed with Governor DeWine's office that he will be there as well. | ||
| Of course, Donald Trump. | ||
| The line's hitting there today? Is that what you... | ||
| Yes, we confirmed that. | ||
| By the way, it's totally unrelated. | ||
| It's totally unrelated. | ||
| I want to make sure everybody understands this is totally unrelated to Donald Trump showing up tomorrow. | ||
| The FEMA guys being announced and they're heading out there. | ||
| Absolutely. It's no connection. | ||
| We're not conspiracy theorists. | ||
| Mike DeWine likes East Palestine. | ||
| He's been received so well there. | ||
| He's just dying to go back. | ||
| He just absolutely went back and had to go back today. | ||
| Hey, DeWine, Regan, you can do all the runaround you want. | ||
| We got you now. Okay, we got you. | ||
| You're nothing but a bunch of liars and spin artists and you drop the ball here in a major way because the people didn't count until the spotlight started to be put on your lies. | ||
| Let me get Jeff Clark in here. | ||
| Jeff, is it strike you as odd since you were in the DOJ and you were in charge of all the legal aspects of this which are voluminous that a fire chief in a hamlet of 4,000 people is designated? | ||
| He's the guy that makes decisions. | ||
| And in consultation with not one person, not one billet named by the EPA, sir? | ||
| Yes, Steve, and good to be here. | ||
| Absolutely. Look, according to EPA, the timeline is that the spill was at 9.55 p.m., and then they were on the ground by 2 in the morning, right? | ||
| So they were there. So if they're telling reporters... | ||
| You know, for the Ohio Star, that they didn't have anything to do with a controlled burn decision. | ||
| A, I find that very hard to believe, and B, It would at least represent an abdication of authority, right? | ||
| I mean, why would you put a local fire chief as the incident commander to make that kind of momentous decision, you know, particularly because you're talking about a million pounds of vinyl chloride that if it's burned is going to convert to phosgene gas. | ||
| I mean, you need to do air modeling. | ||
| You need to look at what the water impacts were going to be and what the land impacts are going to be. | ||
| It was a tri-media release A fire chief has nothing like the expertise necessary to do that. | ||
| This is why we have an EPA, so that they can do those kinds of analyses. | ||
| And it just looks like they wanted to punt this to the local authorities so that they could claim that they didn't have anything to do with anything bad that resulted from that decision. | ||
| And that's just amazing. That's not what we want our federal government to do, Steve. | ||
| Jeff, we've been calling on Attorney General Yost to impanel a grand jury. | ||
| He's the Attorney General for Ohio. | ||
| Impanel a criminal grand jury immediately so you can get all the testimony, get all the documents, all that. | ||
| Would you think that's too over the top or would you say given the – and now you just see EPAs trying to wash their hands of it. | ||
| They didn't even have anybody in the consultation. | ||
| They know nothing, don't know anything that's going on here, right? | ||
| Do you think it's time now for authorities to actually step up and start taking this seriously? | ||
| Yeah. Yes, Sergeant Schultz. | ||
| Is it time for the authorities to step up and take action here? | ||
| I think they should, Steve. | ||
| And having heard you say at the top of the show that you are making recommendations to Attorney General Yost, I took a quick look at the Ohio Code. | ||
| And it looks to me like in general their system is set up so that local prosecutors prosecute, but that the governor actually can hand that authority to the AG. Although the AG does have one very important power, Steve, he could, on his own authority, appoint a special counsel to prosecute In this instance. | ||
| And I would urge him to look at that device so that there can be someone focused on that issue in the Ohio government, Steve. | ||
| Jeff, how do people get to you on both social media and how they get to your site over there with Russ Vogt and the team? | ||
| So our site is americarenewing.com and I'm at JeffClarkUS on Twitter and Getter and on RealJeffClark on TruthSocial. | ||
| Brother Clark, thank you so much. | ||
| You've been amazing on this. | ||
| Thank you. Michael Patrick Leahy, anything to give us? | ||
| I know you've got a punch. Is the story up now on the fire chief? | ||
| The story's up in about two minutes, Steve, at TheOhioStar.com. | ||
| I want to add this from the EPA statement. | ||
| Notably, they did not include a representative from Pennsylvania or the governor of Pennsylvania's office in that decision. | ||
| I'll read that again. Quote, EPA did not order the controlled burn. | ||
| The local fire chief was the incident commander who made the decision in consultation with Norfolk Southern, local law enforcement, and response officials from Ohio. | ||
| So Pennsylvania, no involvement. | ||

According to the- He's got to smoke them out. | |
| He's got to smoke them out one statement at a time. | ||
| Michael Patrick Leahy, how do people get to the Ohio Star, the Star News Network, and you personally, sir? | ||
| TheOhioStar.com, TheStarNewsNetwork.com, and I'm on Twitter, Getter, and Truth Social at Michael P. Leahy. | ||
| That's Michael P. Leahy, Steve. | ||
| Thank you, brother. Look forward to great reporting. | ||
| Let's bring in, we've got Christine Karamo. | ||
| Christine, I've only got a minute on this side, but I'm going to hold you through. | ||
| First off, the whole posse wants to say congratulations. | ||
| How did you pull off that massive victory? | ||
| And I want to say the media, the mainstream media, MSNBC particularly, they're so enthusiastic that you won. | ||
| I just want to make sure you know that you're friends at MSNBC, particularly Joy Ann Reed. | ||
| Joy Ann Reed could not be happier that a woman of color won than the Michigan GOP. You've got 30 seconds, ma'am. | ||
| Your thoughts about Joy Ann Reed and MSNBC? The narrative has been broken. | ||
|

|
They cannot continuously holler that the policies that we espouse are somehow bigoted. | |
| So now they have to find a new talking point. | ||
| As we know, the left always pushes back to erroneous points in order to cover for the evil and corruption they seek to push in order to pretend that they're victims. | ||
| Our victory is just kudos to our team. | ||
| It was not me. I'm nothing without our team. | ||
| So it was a great team effort of dedicated, godly patriots who want to ensure that Michigan is on the path to righteousness. | ||
| Christina Karamo, hold on. | ||
| Short commercial break. Karamo and Kimberly Guilfoyle next in the War Room. | ||

Karamo. Yeah, the one of the things we're gonna do is we're gonna be honest. | |
| I know that if anyone's been involved in politics just for a small amount of time, being honest, doing the right thing, making sure that the decisions we make are per the party platform. | ||
| The Republican Party platform states that we are the party of the Constitution. | ||
| It states, it references the Constitution over 70 times in our party platform. | ||
| So if one calls himself a Republican, I am obligated to conduct my decisions based on what's best or what is in alliance with the Republican Party platform. | ||
| So these people are terrified of having constitutionalists in charge of the Michigan Republican Party and a lot of the county parties as well. | ||
| And so what you're going to see uniquely from our administration is we're going to be growing our party without compromising our values. | ||
| What we found during the time when I ran for secretary of state, that there are lots of people who don't identify as Republican, but share our beliefs and values, but they just haven't been touched by the Republican Party. | ||
| I've encountered a lot of people who say, I've never talked to a Republican candidate before. | ||
| So if you're not talking to people, why would they vote for our candidates? | ||
| So we're going to be involved all year round, reaching out to people, sharing our message and showing why the Republican vision for state of Michigan is best. | ||
| And Steve, we are in a fight of our lives. | ||
| What prompted me to run for chair of the Michigan Republican Party is the fact that Michigan has become ground zero for the globalist takeover of the United States of America. | ||
| That is a fact. My own county, we have an ESG compliance officer, and the World Economic Forum has two offices in Michigan. | ||
| And our ESG compliance officer has UN Agenda 2030 logos and lettering and goals on our official county documents. | ||
| So this is why Michigan is so significant. | ||
| This is why Michigan matters to America. | ||
| And so like you mentioned, Ottawa County, that's another great county where they primaried Republicans who were not doing their job. | ||
| We are in this for one reason only. | ||
| It is to save our country so our kids can have their usable, unalienable, God-given rights. | ||
| Steve, I think of in the book of Isaiah, and I shared this with folks Saturday prior to the vote. | ||
| You know, in the book of Isaiah, Hezekiah allowed the Babylonians to see all of his riches, everything that Israel had. | ||
| And when Isaiah found out what Hezekiah did, he confronted him and said, your children will be taken into captivity. | ||
| You're bringing horror on your children. | ||
| And Hezekiah just rolled over and didn't care because he wouldn't see it, the pain, he wouldn't see the Babylonian captivity in his days. | ||
| And this is unfortunately how many people act. | ||
| If we don't get our country, if we don't get our state into shape, our kids will inherit tyranny. | ||
| That is a fact. Look at the trajectory of our state. | ||
| We have known traitors like Joe Biden. | ||
| Joe Biden needs to be impeached. | ||
| This is unbelievable that this man is occupying. | ||
| He's an illegitimate president, number one. | ||
| But it's amazing that he's occupying that office. | ||
| This is what we're dealing with. | ||
| And this is not me being emotional and dramatic and trying to just rally the troops. | ||
| These are facts. These are facts that these people's actions are consistent with people who have one agenda, and that is to intentionally implode the United States of America. | ||
| So what you're going to see out of the Republican Party is a party who is Penetrating into these demographics that are traditionally Democratic, you're going to see a party who is effectively communicating that our enemy is not the everyday Democrat voter. | ||
| It is the Democratic Party leadership. | ||
| That is the problem. | ||
| There are so many everyday Democrat voters who actually agree with us on many issues. | ||
| We may vary on some social issues here and there, which are very important. | ||
| I don't want to minimize them. | ||
| However, the core liberty issues, like for example in Michigan, Now the Democrats are ready to pass red flag laws, which again, just for folks to remember, I could say my neighbor is mentally unstable and shouldn't have a gun, and their constitutional rights will be violated, and their firearm may be confiscated. | ||
| Then you have the background checks, which are going to make it more stringent for people to obtain a weapon. | ||
| I should not have an extra layer in order to exercise my Second Amendment rights shall not be infringed as in the Constitution. | ||
| And then the third point is they're gonna have some storage laws. | ||
| Now, Steve, we purchase firearms for our personal safety and to protect ourselves in case our government gets tyrannical. | ||
| However, the reality is this, is that in the event of an emergency, if someone is breaking into my home and I've had to break apart my weapon and I can't readily access it, then I can't be safe. | ||
| The purpose of the Second Amendment is not to terrorize or harass people. | ||
| It is simply to protect. | ||
| It's a defensive reason. | ||
| It's not offensive. Our reason for protecting our Second Amendment rights are not offensive. | ||
| They're defensive. And it goes on and on. | ||
| Christina, where can people go to get your entire agenda? | ||
| We've got to bounce. We're going to have you back on to give it more detailed, particularly the business community. | ||
| But where can people go right now to find out everything you ran on, everything you stand for, and what you intend to do with the Michigan GOP as chairman? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, so right now, as I'm sure you guys know, we just won a couple days ago, so we're in a transition phase, but people can still visit our campaign website, karamopego.com, K-A-R-A-M-O-P-E-G-O.com. | |
| That's where they can learn about our agenda. | ||
| And also, really, last point, Steve, is the Elliott Larson campaign. | ||
| They want to amend that. | ||
| That way, we will have to put transgender rights, quote unquote, within our law. | ||
| That way, if you have a church or a Christian organization, they will be forced to hire a man claiming to be a woman. | ||
| Otherwise, there'll be a violation of a law. | ||
| So it is horrible what's happening in Michigan. | ||
| Horrible. What is the social media also people can follow you? | ||
| Because you're obviously become a lightning rod like Carrie Lake. | ||
| How can people follow you? | ||

| Just Christina Karamo. My first and last name. | ||
| Getting to know you over the last couple of years, I can tell you one thing. | ||
| You're a fighter and you are not going to back down. | ||
| So you're going to see a massive change in Michigan. | ||
| You've got people like Impact Ottawa and people like Christina Karamo. | ||
| That's what's going to save the nation. | ||
| Christina, honor to have you on here, ma'am. | ||
| Good fighting. Go with God. | ||
| What a warrior. | ||
| Incredible. Talk about warriors. | ||
| I'm honored. Kimberly Guilfoyle. | ||
| Kimberly, you're as tough as boot leather. | ||
| And I got to tell you, you gave the most. | ||
| What a great compliment. If you go back and look at that speech you gave, if you gave that speech that you gave at the convention, to me was the most powerful speech outside the president's. | ||
| It was incredible. You're about to launch a podcast. | ||
| Thank you so much. Why are you doing this now? | ||
| Walk us through because you're a voice we need to have in this fight every day, ma'am. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I appreciate that, you know, and I was for so many years on television on Fox and then fighting for the president as, you know, senior advisor and across the country campaigning and talking to the good folks out there. | |
| Well, I want to join warriors like yourself and like Don Jr. | ||
| who are taking your voice directly to the people so that we can be free and uncensored because it's a shame what's happening with news these days. | ||
| And when you come to a show like yours, show like mine, like Don, you're going to hear it straight from us. | ||
| There's gonna be no nonsense and we're gonna tell you exactly how it is and what's going on in this country because I think we are in the fight of our lives right now to save the soul of this country. | ||
| It is astonishing to me. | ||
| I knew it was gonna be bad with Biden in the White House. | ||
| I never thought it would be this bad this quickly how he has completely destroyed and decimated this country. | ||
| It is frightening to see what one person with their agenda in his administration has done to this country. | ||
| I mean, there isn't one competent person in there from, you know, Buttigieg to Kamala Harris. | ||
| It's actually pathetic. And they put us in very dire straits on the national stage, on the international stage, with foreign policy, feckless national security. | ||
| It's just outrageous. And they are bending over backwards for Ukraine while stepping on hardworking Americans here. | ||
| And it's just the priorities are completely out of line. | ||
| By the way, you talk about a shot, no chaser. | ||
| That's Kimberly Guilfoyle. | ||
| Talk to me about how important President Trump's going to East Palestine tomorrow. | ||
| How important is it now to make sure that President Trump not just gets back in the White House in 24, but gets back with a sweeping landslide that we have a massive mandate, ma'am? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. And I'll tell you, leadership is in the actions of what you do, what you choose to do for the American people. | |
| Just because President Trump isn't in the White House where he does belong, he is still fighting for the hardworking Americans out there. | ||
| And when people are suffering, that's when a real leader steps up, when you need them most. | ||
| President Trump has shown more leadership, more compassion. | ||
| And getting something done for the people that are suffering there. | ||
| Why did it take weeks for anything to happen while they're suffering there and not getting the support from the federal government? | ||
| Why was Biden in Ukraine and not here in Ohio helping the good people that are suffering there, the families and the children? | ||
| It is outrageous to me what is going on in this country. | ||
| President Trump will be there and he will be delivering words of comfort and also sustenance for these people because they need the water, they need the supplies, and they need President Trump's voice to be able to amplify this issue for them. | ||
| If that isn't just a complete juxtaposition of Joe Biden, who does not care about the American people and certainly has turned his back on the people in Ohio, And President Trump, who never stopped caring and fighting for this country and for the hardworking men and women that deserve to have some self-respect, deserve to have their voices heard. | ||
| They deserve a leader who cares about this country, that puts America first, not foreign interests first. | ||
| And that Biden family is completely corrupt. | ||
| It is disgusting what's going on and that they're in the White House, the dealings with Hunter, with Joe Biden, with Joe Biden's brother. | ||
| What is going on? | ||
| This is un-American. | ||
| It is criminal and it's a criminal enterprise running essentially the White House in this country right now. | ||
| That's why President Trump needs to take it back or you will not recognize this country anymore. | ||
| They think California is the shining example. | ||
| It is not. No one wants to live there. | ||
| It is outrageous what's gone on there. | ||
| That's what Democrat policies and principles and ideology will do for you. | ||
| Ruin your country. | ||
| Make the streets unsafe. | ||
| Crime out of control. | ||
| No jobs. No manufacturing. | ||
| No infrastructure. And excessive taxation. | ||
| Robbing the American people of their hard-earned dollars. | ||
| No more. We have had enough. | ||
| And that's why I want to be on Rumble. | ||
| I don't want to be censored. I want to say what I want to say. | ||
| I want to have people on that are unafraid and unapologetic. | ||
| Because that's our right in this country, in the United States of America, where we put America first. | ||
| Kimberly, just hang on for one second. | ||
| Take a short commercial break. I want to get everybody to make sure that they're lined up on the show and where they go. | ||
| So take a short commercial break. | ||
| Oh, hang on. We still got a minute? | ||
| Oh, okay, fine. I had just a clock problem. | ||
| Kimberly, we still got a minute. | ||
| I didn't scare you yet. Did I, Steve? No, no, no, man. | ||
| Hey, I'm waiting to cut on the show. | ||
| Right now, go ahead and give us, how did they get to the Rumble show? | ||
| Give us your social media. We want everybody to pile in for your open. | ||

| It's the second anniversary. I want you to tell people, because people don't understand, behind the scenes there's so much going on. | ||
| And one of the things that's going on is training up people, getting people that are populist nationalists to train them up, get them in the government, be ready for the second Trump administration, all of it. | ||
| So it's the second anniversary of your organization. | ||
| Tell us about what you guys have accomplished and what you're going to do going forward, sir. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, thank you so much, Steven. | |
| You've been a great friend to us since we launched. | ||
| Look, you know, right after the presidential election in 2020, everyone was understandably dejected. | ||
| They were pessimistic. But myself and my co-founders, Nick and Jake, we realized that there was a ton of work to be done. | ||
| And that a lot of the problems that Republicans and conservatives run into, that America first runs into when it actually gets power, have to be solved years in advance. | ||
| And so we sat down to focus on one of those small problems, which is personnel. | ||
| And when you think about it, it's actually not so small a problem. | ||
| It's a pretty big problem. At the end of the day, ideas only get you so far. | ||
| People are required to implement ideas in institutions, specifically in government. | ||
| And so what we've been doing for the last two years, what we hope to do for years to come, is to build up a cadre of talented, effective young people of good character that are going to go into presidential administrations, that are going to go into congressional offices, that are going to go into public policy organizations. | ||
| And help move the tide of all of these swampy institutions here in D.C. in a more populous nationalist direction. | ||
| The kinds of people who would say, hold on, maybe let's not get into World War III in Ukraine. | ||
| The people who say, not only do we have an intolerable crisis at the southern border, but maybe we should take a look at our legal immigration regime too. | ||
| The kinds of people who say that Free trade has been an unadulterated mistake for the American nation and that we need to bring manufacturing back home. | ||
| Those are the kinds of people that we're developing, identifying, credentialing every single day, and we're extraordinarily blessed to be able to do it. | ||
| Here's what people say. | ||
| Well, these policies of populism and nationalism, we just talked about the credit cards, trillion dollars of credit card debt with the super high interest rates. | ||
| You're just on the hamster wheel, right? | ||
| Like a Russian surf. | ||
| But that these policies, young people either don't know about them or if they hear them. | ||
| They're turned off by them. | ||
| But I look at the cadre you've put together and some of the most impressive young men and women I've ever met. | ||
| Walk me through, how are you guys out there marketing this and getting people actually to start to at least listen to your message? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I'll tell you, Steve, my job's actually easier today than it might have been, let's say, 15 years ago. | |
| I shudder to think how difficult it would have been to put together an actually competent, interesting cadre of people in 2006, when the apex of what it meant to be a conservative was warmed over Bushism. | ||
| No, the reality is, is that politics is actually interesting for young people today. | ||
| We're in the middle of this ideological paradigm shift, and highly competent people who could easily make hundreds of thousands of dollars in other industries, in tech and finance and other places, Are saying, well, you know, I could make that money, but I'm not really going to have a country to live in in 10 years, and so I'm going to come participate in the fight over here. | ||
| So it's a lot easier to get really high-caliber, third-standard deviation and beyond people than it once was. | ||
| But the other thing that's happening, this is a secular trend that is happening in every institution in American life is that there is a change in the guard. | ||
| The boomers are, not by their own choice, but usually because they're dying or retiring, letting go of power. | ||
| And so you're going to see an entire generational sea change across every institution in American life. | ||
| And the real question that we have to figure out in politics Is that generational sea change just going to be the same old boomer ideas with a fresh coat of paint? | ||
| Or is it going to be an actual fundamental shift in how we think about politics and public policy? | ||
| I'm not a believer in the cult of youth by any stretch, but the challenges that are facing the country today for young people, for people who are even starting families in their late 20s, early 30s, are fundamentally different than our parents and grandparents dealt with. | ||
| You have the explosion of all of the basic cost indicators that mean thriving, successful American life in healthcare and education and housing. | ||
| You have the financialization of our economy, the hollowing out of our industrial sector, mass immigration. | ||
| All of these consequences are fundamentally new. | ||
| And they require people who have close personal experiences with their upshot, with their devastating consequences, to participate in public policy. | ||
| So we're on the vanguard of helping make sure that, again, you don't just end up with people in D.C. who may be younger or different ethnicity or women, as the GOP establishment loves to play its own version of identity politics. | ||
| No, we want people who are all of those things, but also have a fundamentally different perspective on how we change the country. | ||
| Citizen Sharma, how do people get to your group and find out more about you? | ||
| And then what's your social media? | ||
| Of course, you're an individual. People should be following you. | ||
