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. | ||
|
unidentified
|
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? | |
| If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. | ||

|
War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Bamm. | |
| Russia has joined with China. | ||
| Saudi Arabia joined with Iran. | ||
| China, Russia, Iran, North Korea have formed together as a menacing and destructive coalition. | ||
| Our currency is crashing and will soon no longer be the world standard. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Russia would have never invaded Ukraine and China would not be having even a thought of raiding Taiwan. | |
| You didn't hear about these things when I was president. | ||
| Good evening. Thank you. | ||
| Thank you. Good evening. | ||
| America is ready. | ||
| And so are Joe and I. Once upon a time, you're dressed so fine. | ||
| Through the bums of time, I'm in your pride. | ||
| We have elected a president. | ||
| A leader the world will respect. | ||
| People call and say, beware, doll. | ||
| You're gonna fall. You're gonna favor all. | ||
| I'm kidding you. And it is now my great honor. | ||
| To introduce the president-elect of the United States of America. | ||
| Now you don't talk so loud. | ||
| Now you don't seem so proud about having to be scrounging your next meeting. | ||
| But I know when everything's, hey, tell me now, how does it feel to be on your own with no direction at all? | ||
| Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone, yeah. | ||
| I said, bring it on. | ||
| It's on the steeple of all those pretty, pretty, pretty people there all drinking, thinking that they got it made. | ||
| It's changing all kinds of precious gifts. | ||
| You better take that diamond ring. | ||
| You're better party, babe! | ||
| You used to be so mute, and the pulling in rhymes! | ||
| And the language that he used! | ||
| Look, go to him now! | ||
| He calls you! You can't refuse! | ||
| Cause you've got nothing! | ||
| You've got nothing to lose! | ||
| You're invisible now! | ||
| You've got no secrets! | ||
| You've meant to love! | ||
| Tell me how! | ||
| I'm a good feeler To be on your own With no direction home Like a complete unknown Yeah, yeah It's Monday, 17 April in the Year of Our Lord 2023. | ||
| That is Max Evans, the great videographer, made this. | ||
| It's going to go up live now on Getter. | ||
| Got it to us over the weekend. | ||
| That's Ann Wilson. I think a heart. | ||
| What a rendition of a cover of Rolling Stone. | ||
| You see the exact chaos of the Biden regime. | ||
| We've asked the MTG, Congressman Marjorie Taylor Greene, to join us today. | ||
| Congressman Greene, thank you very much for joining us. | ||
| I want to go to New York. You've been on an oversight. | ||
| Your colleagues in judiciary are up there bringing the heat. | ||
| In fact, Lisa Phonix doubted herself into this. | ||
| You've got Matt Gaetz. Let's pick up the hearing just for a moment. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Then we've got a lot to go through with MTG. Each of them reflects a failure in our criminal justice system. | |
| With that, Ms. Brame, I would like to return to your story. | ||
| Would you please begin by sharing with us a little bit more about your son? | ||
| Okay, I tell you what, we're going to come back to that. | ||
| I got MTG, and we're going to come back. | ||
| Okay, this is going to be an all-day event. | ||
| You got Gates up there, you got Stefanik up there, you got the hitters. | ||
| Tell me, first off, you've been on oversight hammering people. | ||
| Do you believe, coming where we came from in early January, are you, understand your action, action, action, are you happy with where we are, the different oversights, investigations, you know, the weaponization of government? | ||
| Give us your assessment. Well, I think we're moving in the right direction. | ||
| Am I happy and am I satisfied? | ||
| No, not yet. | ||
| I think we have a lot more work to do. | ||
| And I will say I'm very proud of our oversight staff and team. | ||
| We are being extremely aggressive. | ||
| We've held the most amount of hearings out of all the committees in Congress. | ||
| But listen, Steve, I see it clear. | ||
| Our country is on fire and we're not just a nation in decline. | ||
| Not in a good way. No, not in a good way. | ||
| You know, President Trump calls us a nation in decline. | ||
| I think we're a nation on the brink of failure. | ||
| And the way I see it, you know, we're in $31 trillion in debt. | ||
| We're a company about to just completely implode. | ||
| It's a bankruptcy. Yeah, it's a bankruptcy. | ||
| This is not going to be a Chapter 11. | ||
| This is going to be a Chapter 7. | ||
| 100%. You just walk in and sell the assets and the devil gets the hindmost. | ||
| Yeah, as a matter of fact, I can't even believe that we're still in business. | ||
| But it's all fake, right? They just keep printing money. | ||
| The second part is we're on the verge of World War III, no matter what Lindsey Graham and the others in Washington try to pretend like we're the big, bad, tough guys. | ||
| This is a huge thing. I got a cold open for Congressman Green. | ||
| Let's play the cold open, and then everybody's been anticipating your response to this. | ||
| Let's go ahead and play it. Marjorie Taylor Greene makes clear yet again that she cannot be trusted with America's national security information and should not have a security clearance of any kind. | ||
| I wanted to know why she does. | ||
| She apparently sits on the Homeland Security Committee of all things. | ||
| Do you agree, though? | ||
| And I guess if the Speaker won't do it, he said there's nothing he wouldn't do for Marjorie Taylor Greene. | ||
| This probably isn't a solvable national security problem. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, from my perspective, I think Audrey Telly Green has demonstrated time and time again that she's not fit to hold public office with some of her commentary that she has made even previously. | |
| And so therefore, I believe that she should not be provided any type of sensitive classified information. | ||
| And she does have some clearances because of her role within the Congress and position on certain committees. | ||
| But in light of these comments that are made, and as you pointed out before, you know, you could have this Bizarre policy view that we shouldn't be helping Ukraine. | ||
| And if you do have that, you can still decry and condemn the unauthorized disclosure of our classified information that has been having damage, I think, to our interests abroad. | ||
| And so, therefore, I totally agree with Liz Cheney. | ||
| And more and more, I find myself in league with Liz Cheney. | ||
| And I'm glad to see that she, among the few Republicans out there, has a spine and is willing to speak up. | ||
| I mean, take a look at what Marjorie Taylor Greene tweeted. | ||
| She said, Jack Teixeira is white male Christian and anti-war. | ||
| That makes him an enemy to the Biden regime. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And he told the truth about troops being on the ground in Ukraine and a lot more. | |
| I mean, Tucker Carlson's kind of turning him into a hero. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What do you make of that? | |
| Why? What they're suggesting... | ||
| will destroy America's ability to defend itself. | ||
| That it's okay to release classified information based on your political views. | ||
| That the ends justify the means. | ||
| It is not okay. | ||
| If you're a member of the military intelligence community and you disagree with American policy and you think you're going to be okay when it comes to leaking classified information, you're going to go to jail. | ||
| It's one of the most irresponsible statements you can make. | ||
| The ability for America to gather intelligence from human resources on the ground has been compromised. | ||
| We can't have a chaotic intelligence gathering system. | ||
| If you give us information and it's disclosed, you can lose your life. | ||
| The way we gather intelligence protects our country. | ||
| There are military members serving today from Georgia and other places who are less safe because of what this airman did. | ||
| There is no justification for this, and for any member of Congress to suggest It's okay to leak classified information because you agree with the cause. | ||
| is terribly irresponsible and puts America in serious danger. | ||
| Under Biden, America is no longer in charge on the world stage. | ||
|
unidentified
|
America's standing in the world has never recovered from the disastrous, chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan. | |
| Our enemies see through his saber rattling. | ||
| Mr. Putin, don't misunderstand what I'm saying. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This man cannot remain powerful. | |
| Biden's sanctions aren't working. | ||
| They're just pushing Russia even closer to China. | ||
|
unidentified
|
If a couple of strong countries ever got together, you would lose. | |
| It's a new world order that United States versus Russia and China. | ||
| The army is marginal. The navy is weak. | ||
| Air force very weak. Space force weak. | ||
| Our supreme leaders in the Biden administration are so clueless that they are literally going to lead us into World War III. The Chinese have more ships, more airplanes, and more missiles than the United States has. | ||
|
unidentified
|
President Biden confirmed Russia's use of hypersonic missiles, saying it's almost impossible to stop it. | |
| The President warning the risk of nuclear Armageddon. | ||
| The U.S. is developing contingency plans, including potential use of tactical nuclear weapons. | ||
| The direct confrontation between NATO and Russia is World War III. | ||
| Stop this war and bring peace. | ||
| The fire, the fire burns with us. | ||
| Okay, John Brennan, former head of the CIA, Congressman Green, says you're not fit for public office. | ||
| Lindsey Graham, the senator from the great state of South Carolina, says you are terribly irresponsible. | ||
| They didn't say this about Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers. | ||
| They didn't say it about the Afghanistan Papers. | ||
| What say you, ma'am? Well, let's break it down. | ||
| I had three people attacking me right there. | ||
| Let's start with Liz Cheney. | ||
| You know, Steve, Liz Cheney will never be the son that her warmongering father wanted. | ||
| And she's a loser and we sent her home. | ||
| So Liz Cheney is irrelevant in the conversation. | ||
| She's not even worth arguing with on Twitter. | ||
| So she's now just a CNN spokesman for the Democrat Party. | ||
| Let's talk about John Brennan. | ||
| John Brennan converted to Islam, the same religion that has- The rumor is that he- The rumor. | ||
| Okay, the rumor. When he was station chief in Saudi Arabia. | ||
| Right, that's pretty interesting, you know, as we're a country that was, they declared jihad on us on 9-11. | ||
| And John Brennan has orchestrated more damage through being a former, when he was director of the CIA, more damage. | ||
| You're not a fan of his term as CIA director? | ||
| Absolutely not. Any man that will sign his name and get 51 members of the intelligence community... | ||
| You think John Brenner's in back of the cover-up of the laptop from hell the week before the election? | ||
| 100%. 51 members of the intelligence community signed their name. | ||
| You sign your name to truth. | ||
| You don't sign your name to a lie. | ||
| They signed their name to a lie to completely stop President Trump from winning the 2020 election. | ||
| John Solomon's going to be on here at 11. | ||
| John Solomon's saying he's hearing from the investigation that's going on that people are actually talking about how politically motivated it was, and they knew it was a lie when they signed it. | ||
| We know it's a lie. | ||
| We absolutely know it's a lie. | ||
| We know Hunter Biden's laptop is real. | ||
| Everyone knows Hunter Biden's laptop is real. | ||
| I'll go further on John Brennan. | ||
| John Brennan is the exact type of traitor that should be in prison. | ||
| He should be sitting in prison, not the 21-year-old National Guardsman. | ||
| I'm sorry to say that. I know people may disagree with me. | ||
| When are we going to start to get to the investigations of Brennan and what these guys have done as the deep state to sell this country out, the treasonous activity? | ||
| Well, that's exactly what I speak about when I say I'm not satisfied so far with where we are. | ||
| Now, don't get me wrong, we're going as fast as we can, but these are the types of investigations that America deserves. | ||
| They need to know about the real deep state that exists that is destroying our country and selling Americans out every single day so that they get rich. | ||
| Let's go to Lindsey Graham, though. | ||
| Lindsey Graham was elected to Congress in 1995. | ||
| Our national debt was under $6 trillion in 1995. | ||
| Under Lindsey Graham's term, serving here in Washington, D.C. as a member of Congress and as a senator, we are now $31 trillion in debt. | ||
| His voting record is outrageous. | ||
| It looks like a Democrat's. | ||
| And let me tell you something else. | ||
| Lindsey Graham is more interested in waging war all over the world than he is about securing our southern border. | ||
| He could care less about the 300-plus Americans that die every single day from fentanyl. | ||
| And if he was as brave and courageous as he acts like he is and talks tough against people like me and talks tough against Vladimir Putin, then why isn't he declaring war on the cartels in Mexico that are responsible for human trafficking and murdering people with drugs here in America? | ||
| I don't know what country Lindsey Graham serves, but it's not the United States when you're more interested in declaring war and defending Ukraine's borders than America borders. | ||
| Let me add one more thing. Hang on. | ||
| I'm going to hold the break. We're going to keep the audience hanging on. | ||
| Short commercial break. Councilman Green, one of the questions I'm going to ask, two of the closest advisers to President Donald John Trump is Marjorie Taylor Greene in the House. | ||
| And wait for it, Lindsey Graham in the Senate. | ||
| All next in The War Room. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We will fight till they're all gone. | |
| We rejoice when there's no more. | ||
| Let's take down the CCP. | ||
| Host Stephen K. Bamm Okay, welcome back. | ||
| Um... | ||
| What? Uh, do... | ||
| I want to put this meme up. | ||
| Was this being a mean girl this weekend? | ||
| Tell me what this is. | ||
| People were corn fused. | ||
| Lindsey Graham actually had a can of Bud Light, drinking it with Dana Bash, and it had Dylan, whatever his name is, on the can. | ||
| Dylan Mulvaney. | ||
| Were you trolling there, or is that real? | ||
| That's my account, and I posted it, and you know what? | ||
| I think everyone knows what it means. | ||
| There's no words needed. | ||
| But this is what had them all... | ||
| They said this is your response. | ||
| That's not your response. You're about to give you a response. | ||
| That wasn't the response. That was an appetizer. | ||
| That was a teaser. The other thing, Ron Filipowski, the former Marine down in Florida, Is there something going on? | ||
| I mean, he's got a fan account of you, your best stuff. | ||
| Marge, is this like a term of endearment? | ||
| I think so. I've known you a long time. | ||
| I haven't known anybody who calls you Marge. | ||
| I was saying, hey, is there something going on there? | ||
| I don't know. No, definitely not. | ||
| It's a fan account. I think so. | ||
| I appreciate it. | ||
| I follow Filipowski just to follow you. | ||
| I said, what's she up to today? Okay. | ||
| On a serious note, and I don't mean this because President Trump talks to a lot of people. | ||
| He wants input from everybody, but it's quite disturbing. | ||
| That we got you and Gates and hardcore America First, MAGA, Cash, Patel. | ||
| And then you got Lindsey Graham flitting around there. | ||
| And he's the most pro-war. | ||
| He's anti-America First. | ||
| He's anti-MAGA. He's anti-the agenda. | ||
| He's anti-getting control. | ||
| If you look at any specific issue, he's on the wrong, not just kind of in the middle, he's on the wrong side of it, ma'am. | ||
| That's right. Absolutely the wrong side. | ||
| Let me tell you how wrong he has been on his issues. | ||
| In 2022, he voted for the omnibus, the 4,155-page bill that contained $1.6 trillion, a spending package, $47 billion to Ukraine. | ||
| And took the gavel out of the hand of Kevin McCarthy and yourself and others that could have stopped spending. | ||
| That's right. We could have shut it all down right now. | ||
| No, Lindsey Graham has acted like Joe Biden's best friend in the Senate, not President Trump's best friend. | ||
| He has helped Joe Biden pass his disastrous agenda. | ||
| For America, more probably than any other senator. | ||
| More so than, let's say, Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin. | ||
| Lindsey Graham has been a green light every single time. | ||
| Let me tell you what I consider, other than his support for never-ending foreign wars and his non-support for a secure border here in America. | ||
| Let me tell you the one thing that I think was Probably one of the most devastating. | ||
| He voted to confirm Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor, the two Supreme Court justices. | ||
| Lindsey Graham voted to confirm those two radical, extremely radical women. | ||
| Let me remind everybody of something. | ||
| During Kagan's confirmation hearing, she was unable to answer whether a law requiring Americans to eat vegetables was constitutional. | ||
| Both Kagan and Sotomayor joined the 5-4 majority opinion to uphold the constitutionality of the individual mandate in Obamacare. | ||
| These are the kind of people and these are the policies and these are the ideas that Lindsey Graham believes in for America. | ||
| And that's why I could care less what he says. | ||
| But he's also the leader of the DACA of open borders. | ||
| Oh, absolutely. He's the most pro-illegal alien guy up there, right? | ||
| Always working with Dick Durbin nonstop. | ||
| Open borders America and war all over the world. | ||
| That's Lindsey Graham and he'll spend all your money to do it. | ||
| And the other thing is he never stands in the way of the radical Democrat agenda, the communist agenda for America. | ||
| As a matter of fact, he stands there and smiles at you and tells you some garbage on TV and pretends like he's tough and then goes down and plays golf with my favorite president. | ||
| That's the problem that we have and that's the type of Republican Party that needs to end, not today, but yesterday. | ||
| We aren't going to tolerate it. President Trump went to the RNC donors in Nashville and he said the old Republican Party is dead and it's not coming back. | ||
| Lindsey Graham is the manifestation of that old Republican Party, correct? | ||
| 100%. But Steve, I want to defend President Trump here for a minute. | ||
| He's a lot smarter than people give him credit. | ||
| So sometimes you keep your biggest enemies, or should we say America's biggest traitors, close by. | ||
| You keep your enemies close? | ||
| That the godfathers thing? | ||
| Keep your enemies close? Closer than your friends? | ||
| I trust President Trump. | ||
| Okay, you trust his judgment here. | ||
| Let's go to the content. The misdirection play is to focus on the leak, right? | ||
| The reality is the content. | ||
| We've had the Pentagon papers that told us that Vietnam was a lie. | ||
| You had Afghanistan papers, Washington Post, 20 years in Afghanistan, a lie. | ||
| That's right. The difference here is this content's real-time. | ||
| This is, and I want to ask you specifically, part of this is this thing about Zelensky and these guys stealing more money. | ||
| What is up? You've been the only voice to say we need to audit. | ||
| We need to audit. Now I hear everything in Congress is, we've got to get the money there. | ||
| It's all got to go. You can't do it during a war. | ||
| Although we know there's no spring offensive because that's a lie. | ||
| We know that the air defense is not working. | ||
| They want the F-16s. | ||
| We know we're out of ammunition. | ||
| We know we're out of ammunition. America is out of ammunition. | ||
| And can't get any Taiwan. Thanks to Lindsey Graham. | ||
| So give us on the content of it, the reality of what you saw about the Ukrainian war. | ||
| Haven't they all come and testified in front of you guys under oath to say that the situation was totally different than what the leak show? | ||
| Oh yeah, absolutely. So the whole reason why they're really mad at this kid named Jack, this 21-year-old National Guardsman, and I really do question that he was able to get his hands on that classified information all by himself. | ||
| But just like the fall guy from Afghanistan was Stu Scheller, and he was the only one that got arrested from that debacle. | ||
| Now we have Jack, the 21-year-old National Guardsman, that they want to make the biggest traitor in America. | ||
| And anyone that defends him or says, wait a minute, what is really going on? | ||
| Will you become a traitor too? | ||
| And that's what they're trying to say about me. | ||
| But I'm not buying it. | ||
| But you want to know why, Steve? I don't buy the lies in Washington, D.C. Because there are more lies that come out of that building just across the road over there than there are anywhere on the planet. | ||
| And what we found out from this classified information is we found out what a bunch of big liars they are. | ||
| And so, yeah, we don't have enough ammunition, but yet we're supposed to be like we're big and tough to defend Taiwan against China. | ||
| China's the fastest growing military in world history, but yet we don't have ammunition and now we find out we have to borrow it from South Korea. | ||
| I'm sorry, we should be offended. | ||
| Guess what else we're finding out? The Ukraine has been buying gas from Russia, the same country that we're waging war against in Ukraine. | ||
| What a joke! | ||
| And the joke here, the joke is on Americans. | ||
| You want to know why? Joe Biden and his idiotic administration put sanctions on Russia because, oh, we're going to stop Russia. | ||
| We're going to sanction them. | ||
| You know what they did to us, Steve? | ||
| They sent Russia into the arms of China. | ||
| And now Russia and China is forming a global, you know, this global alliance that That is completely against America. | ||
| And so what they've done to us is they've driven our inflation to the point where senior citizens in my district and all over the country and poor people have to choose between paying their rent and buying groceries. | ||
| And because of Joe Biden's sanctions and Lindsey Graham's smart let's go to war against Russia. | ||
| You know, they don't care about peace. | ||
| No, they care about feeding the military industrial complex, and I'm sure they all have a bunch of LLCs. | ||
| We're looking at LLCs where Hunter Biden gets money from wire transfers. | ||
| I'd love to know about some other people like Lindsey Graham, John Brennan, hell, Liz Cheney, a whole bunch of them. | ||
| What kind of LLCs do they have and how much money do they receive? | ||
| You think that they're getting money from Ukraine or from oligarchs over there or some sort of side deal? | ||
| This system is so dirty up here, and these politicians that have been in power, you know, Joe Biden has been here longer than I have been alive, and I am not young. | ||
| Joe Biden has been here that long, and so have all his cronies. | ||
| Lindsey Graham calls Joe Biden, his dear friend, his dear friend Joe, dear friend Joe Biden, Joe Biden is not anybody's friend. | ||
| Joe Biden is all about himself and his family. | ||
| Have they lied to Congress about the troops? | ||
| Let's talk about the special forces, NATO special operators and American special operators that the leaks tell us are there. | ||
| Have they lied to you guys in Congress? | ||
| Hell yes, they've lied to us. | ||
| They've lied to everybody. Well, first off, let's go back. | ||
| Joe Biden said... In the beginning, I'm sorry, we won't get involved in this Ukraine situation because they're not a NATO member nation. | ||
| That needs to be reminded every single day. | ||
| Ukraine is not a member of NATO. They're not an ally. | ||
| No, they are not an ally. | ||
| We're not in an agreement with them through NATO like we are with Poland. | ||
| Also, here's what else needs to be reminded. | ||
| Or France had just told us, hey, you've got to go your own way on China. | ||
| Exactly. Exactly. | ||
| I mean, it's unbelievable we find out in these classified documents that Egypt, Egypt is supplying missiles and ammunitions to Russia. | ||
| And UAE, our ally there. | ||
| Oh, but it's Jack, that 21-year-old in the discords. | ||
| Do you buy that an air, a third class, a first class, basically a Grundoon, had access at an Air National Guard base, an Otis Air Base in Commonwealth of Massachusetts, had access directly into the highest level secrets of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, ma'am? | ||
| No, I don't buy it. | ||
| And if he did, our country is a joke. | ||
| Our country is a joke. | ||
| If that kid had full access to all this classified information, then you might as well forget it. | ||
| We're done. We're absolutely done. | ||
| And I believe, yeah, he's got to face some penalties for what he's done. | ||
| I'm not saying he shouldn't, but I believe there's a lot more there, and it needs to be exposed. | ||
| This is the key point. What you said, you're not getting him off the hook. | ||
| You're saying, hey, you can't look at this kid. | ||
| There's something else going on. And more importantly, Brennan and Lindsey Graham don't want to talk about the content. | ||
| The talk show's all weekend. | ||
| It's about the kid, right? | ||
| And he's a misogynist and he's a gun guy and, you know, Oh, he's a racist. | ||
| All this garbage that they're throwing every label they can on him. | ||
| It's the classic here comes the truth and the truth is so ugly that these people belong in jail. | ||
| I'm not kidding you. These people have committed treason against the United States of America and they belong in prison. | ||
| But no, no, no, no. Don't look at that. | ||
| Look at this kid, Jack. I know you've got to bounce. | ||
| Can you give us two or three minutes on the other side here? | ||
| Because I want to talk about your new podcast. | ||
| I've got to ask you about the debt ceiling. | ||
| There's so much. I tell you, I have not seen a news cycle like this in a long time. | ||
| In Congress, number one, they're up in New York City right now with the Bragg investigation of the House Judiciary Committee taking a field trip up there like they did to Yuma. | ||
| Also, Kevin McCarthy gives a huge speech today at the New York Stock Exchange about his thoughts on the debt ceiling. | ||
| We've got this Ukraine situation, all the lies and misrepresentations. | ||
| And quite frankly, they perjured themselves in front of Congress and sworn testimony over the last year. | ||
| Short break. Congressman MTG, she's also got a big new announcement when we come back here in the War Room. | ||
|
unidentified
|
room. Be back in a moment. Okay. Um, | |
| you We're at the first hundred days, but you guys are back now. | ||
| I know you're two weeks and a week off, but the next six weeks will define this Congress. | ||
| Do you agree? I agree. | ||
| You've got the border security bill. | ||
| You've got the debt ceiling. | ||
| You've got the budget. | ||
| You've got the appropriations bill. | ||
| All these investigations are coming up. | ||
| So it's the next... Give us your assessment, because you are both praised and, dare I say, blamed, right? | ||
| Of course. For this, right? | ||
| Of course. Some of your biggest fans, some of the people who love you the most, are saying, hey, I love her, but, you know, I'm not getting it. | ||
| Just give us your assessment, a hundred days in, of where we, not just where we've come, but where do you think we're going? | ||
| Well, 100 days in, Republicans took over the House in basically a nearly impossible situation. | ||
| Like I said, we're a country that's like a company on the verge of bankruptcy. | ||
| That's really what we are. We're not only on the verge of bankruptcy, we're on the verge of World War III with a military that has been transgenderized and we don't have ammunition. | ||
| Nobody doubts that you know that. | ||
| And we see that. | ||
| You talked about the five families. | ||
| I think the question is, even for the Democrats, do people on our side of the football understand it? | ||
| They understand the whole question of a going concern is now a real issue. | ||
| The whole question of a third world war is now an issue. | ||
| These investigations with Brennan and Lindsey, all of these things, people don't doubt that you know it and it's burning to your soul. | ||
| The question is, is the apparatus that is currently in place, are they the same sense of urgency? | ||
| Yes, but here's the situation. | ||
| So I'll describe it like this. | ||
| Imagine that you're a team of firefighters and you're in the middle of a forest fire and you don't know which area to tackle first. | ||
| That's how bad things are. | ||
| So we get in a room and you pull out the list of what should we cut, where do we need to cut spending. | ||
| You know, we have our five families meetings and we've been working very hard on the upcoming debt ceiling issue and we're putting out our list of things to negotiate on. | ||
| Well, the list is so gigantic that it's hard to even, it's almost hard to which ones do we pick and choose. | ||
| And that is where things are so complicated. | ||
| The list of investigations on the oversight committee, we have the biggest staff in Congress for our oversight committee, but we need a staff almost five times bigger than that to really do what we need to get done. | ||
| Same with judiciary. | ||
| What they're doing in New York is great. | ||
| They're exposing the horrific crime in Manhattan and a George Soros radical communist DA that all he cares about is trying to affect the next 2024 presidential election. | ||
| And thank God they're up there doing that. | ||
| But you know what else they need to be doing and on weaponization and so forth? | ||
| Is we need to be going after these federal judges that are persecuting people that walked around in the Capitol on January 6th. | ||
| And pro-life prayer warriors at abortion clinics. | ||
| And parents at school boards holding their school boards accountable. | ||
| We should be impeaching those judges. | ||
| So the gamut of all the things that take on is so big and wide. | ||
| And it's almost like we don't have enough time to do it all. | ||
| They took the gavel away from you guys on spending. | ||
| That's why they passed that omnibus bill. | ||
| Now you're in this new budget process, the new appropriation process, the debt ceiling. | ||
| Is it your belief, as you see it today, because they keep saying it's got to get to 218, it's got to get to 218. | ||
| Is it your belief that the dead enders will say no increase in the debt ceiling until we have massive cuts and really show that we're serious about stopping the spending? | ||
| Do you think that argument, as you see it today, wins out? | ||
| Well, I'll tell you, Steve, I see things a little differently. | ||
| Just like people thought the biggest fight to take on was the speaker's fight, I didn't see that as the biggest fight to take on because I had talked with Kevin McCarthy over and over, and I knew where he was at. | ||
| But I also learned his staff, and I knew where they were at. | ||
| So to me, that wasn't the biggest fight. | ||
| The debt ceiling is a fight because we have to get things through that battle. | ||
| We have to. We are not going to pass a clean debt ceiling bill. | ||
| There's no way in hell I'll vote for that. | ||
| And I've said it from the beginning. | ||
| But I believe... | ||
| So Joe Biden's going to call your bluff because he's going to sit there and go, I don't want to hear your happy talk about spending cuts. | ||
| Joe Biden can't call anybody's bluff because he is... | ||
| To blame for everything wrong happening here today. | ||
| And that's where Republicans have to be strong. | ||
| We have to say we aren't going to fall for your bubbling dementia BS out of the White House. | ||
| You come from one of the most MAGA districts in this country. | ||
| When you go home, what are your people, are the people, your constituents prepared to have your back when you stare down Joe Biden on this debt ceiling? | ||
| Absolutely. The polling is there. | ||
| I go home every weekend and see. | ||
| I go to the grocery store. | ||
| Probably a lot of members of Congress don't go grocery shopping. | ||
| When I go back home, I go grocery shopping. | ||
| I go to the hardware store. | ||
| When I go back home, I'm a regular person. | ||
| And I have nothing but the most wonderful support from the great people in my district and my hometown. | ||
| Steve, they know what I'm trying to do here. | ||
| They know that I'm trying to make it to where they can make a living, they can have a good retirement, they can raise their children without the less insanity that we can have strong borders and that we have a future here in America. | ||
| They know where my passion lies. | ||
| They know I'm willing to fight for it. | ||
| But the debt ceiling fight is kind of like a shiny object. | ||
| The real fight where Republicans need to dig in and say we aren't giving an inch is in the budget and the appropriations. | ||
| Budget and appropriations. | ||
| That is where we have to go to war. | ||
| So give it to me. I'll lay it out right now. | ||
| We need to cut the Department of Justice budget. | ||
| We need to cut the FBI's budget. | ||
| In appropriations, that's where we can put in line item explanations of what they are allowed to spend their money on and what they are not. | ||
| We will not appropriate money for the weaponization of government. | ||
| That's what you do with your budget and your appropriation bills. | ||
| Another thing that we need to do is we have got to end this funding for this war in Ukraine. | ||
| It has to stop. | ||
| It has to stop. | ||
| And that is a battle I'm ready to take on. | ||
| With every single person in my conference and the Democrats too. | ||
| The Democrats, the party of peace and unity and equality, they're the party of bloody war and divide everyone by identity and destroy America. | ||
| That's who they are. In your theory of the case about the budget and the appropriations, can you get to 218 votes to have a united front on that? | ||
| Well, you see, that's like I told you. | ||
| There are battles that I'm willing to go all in on, and there's battles that I'm like, you know what? | ||
| That one, I can do this, I can do that. | ||
| The budget and appropriations is where the battle really is. | ||
| And that's where conservatives make a difference. | ||
| And you need to see massive cuts out of the spending. | ||
| Oh, absolutely. We have to see massive cuts out of spending. | ||
| And I will tell you some good news. | ||
| Everyone's in agreement there. | ||
| But what we have to see in our budget is we have to see a conservative America First agenda. | ||
| That's what I'm willing to fight for in the budget and appropriations. | ||
| I am willing to go all the way on that. | ||
| Your theory of the case, if you get that, then the debt ceiling, you don't even have to... | ||
| Even if you give some... | ||
| Given the debt ceiling, you never hit it, so you win by bringing down the debt or stopping the increase to the debt by doing this. | ||
| Right. The debt ceiling, I'm telling you... | ||
| Are you sitting here telling me that in that house, you've got enough... | ||
| I'm not talking about the 30 to 40 that could block anything on this, but you're telling me you think that you can pull in another 150 votes that support the type of cuts you're talking about? | ||
| Right. I believe so. | ||
| Yeah, you want to know why? Because the people watching this show right now and people all over the country will jump in behind me and jump in behind those of us that are willing to fight for it. | ||
| I know that for a fact, Steve. | ||
| It's not me by myself. | ||
| It's never me by myself. | ||
| It's the great people in America that are willing to get behind us. | ||
| This town is about money and power. | ||
| Yeah. And the money gives the power. | ||
| So you're saying right now your focus on you're going to cut off the money is basically what you're saying. | ||
| 100%. This town, let me describe. | ||
| Are we going to build an FBI thing bigger than the Pentagon in Northern Virginia, Mayor? | ||
| Are you going to fund that? No, absolutely not. | ||
| They don't deserve a pretty new building. | ||
| No. In my opinion, they don't. | ||
| They actually need to be dismantled. | ||
| Wait, they need to be dismantled and rebuilt. | ||
| The FBI needs to be taken apart and rebuilt into an actual law enforcement agency. | ||
| There's good agents in the field that do the right thing, but the FBI, the power structure that is right here in Washington, D.C., they need to be sent home. | ||
| What you're saying is that the next 60 to 90 days, you guys better not book trips. | ||
| Let me just give you a piece of free advice. | ||
| Don't book a trip in the August recess. | ||
| Because the theory that you're saying, and I back it 100%, you're going to be here until the wee hours getting to September 30th when they're going to be begging you guys for a CR. It's going to be a bloodbath. | ||
| Well, you know the cycle. | ||
| They love to put the pressure cycle on and the, oh, the government's going to run out of money and blah. | ||
| It's the fakest story there is. | ||
| Let me describe Washington to people watching at home. | ||
| It is a glass castle and it is thin, thin glass. | ||
| And all the threats and the pressure cooker and all of that, it's fake. | ||
| It's so fake. Well, they come after you harder than ever, and you're bigger than ever, right? | ||
| You're a perfect example if you have the courage, but there's not a lot of courage up here. | ||
| You admit that. Not enough courage. | ||
| No, there's not a lot of courage. | ||
| We need more of it. Okay, talk to me about it. | ||
| We've got a couple of minutes. Talk to me about it. | ||
| There's a big announcement today, right? | ||
| Tell me about it. Yes, I am launching Battleground MTG. This is my podcast. | ||
| Can we get the logo up there? | ||
| It's a great logo. Yeah, thank you. | ||
| So this is a podcast I'm going to be bringing out. | ||
| It'll be two to three times a week where I'm going to get in the nitty gritty. | ||
| And give you the raw details of what's happening on committees I'm serving on, bills that are upcoming. | ||
| I love to inform people of every single thing that's happening in Washington, D.C. You're going to give the details, the receipts. | ||
| Yes, absolutely. You can't come on a show in an eight-minute clip. | ||
| No, it's hard. Yeah, it's hard. | ||
| You give me a lot of time, Steve. | ||
| Your show's probably one of the few I actually get to come on and get in the details, like talking about Lindsey Graham's atrocious voting record. | ||
| People want more, and they deserve it. | ||
| There's tons of podcasts out there that you can watch with a lot of people we all like and agree with, but none of them are members of Congress. | ||
| And that's the difference. | ||
| And so I want to provide something of substance and value that people can count on to watch every single week and know, oh, I already know what's going to happen because here's the bill and we know it's coming. | ||
| We understand the hearing and who the witnesses are and the information that came out of it. | ||
| Oh, MTG has told us what we have to look forward to. | ||
| You know, that's what I want to do is go ahead and provide it. | ||
| But I also want to fight back against the radical left and The rhino's on the right. | ||
| And so I'm willing to go there and give my information and lay it out exactly like I see it. | ||
| And the way I see it, Steve, is it is a battleground every single day because there's a battle waging at the front door of every single American. | ||
| And it's whether we decide to just sit comfortably in our living room in our recliner and ignore it or if we're willing to actually walk out the front door and engage in the battle to save America. | ||
| And that's why I'm launching Battleground MTG Because I need more people to join in. | ||
| When can people get it and how do they get it? | ||
| They will be able to see it. | ||
| I'm going to be launching it. It will be on every single one of my social media sites. | ||
| Okay, perfect. Yeah, so it'll be out there. | ||
| We'll pick it up on Getter and put it out there. | ||
| We'll have a live chat. You're not going Hollywood on us, are you? | ||
| Is MTG going Hollywood? | ||
| Is Filipowski? I'm too normal. | ||
| What is this Filipowski thing, the march? | ||
| I don't even know him. | ||
| I have no idea. | ||
| Okay, last thing, on Ukraine. | ||
| Real quickly, I'll get a minute. | ||
| You came out and you were the first one, and she's always ahead of the curve. | ||
| The first one came out and said, I've got to have audits. | ||
| I've got to know where this money's going. | ||
| Give me a 30-second minute update on that. | ||
| Okay, real quick. They have passed my resolution to audit Ukraine. | ||
| That happened in foreign affairs just a few weeks ago. | ||
| So I've got my audit. That means the Biden administration has to provide the receipts. | ||
| So that is going to happen, and I'm very excited about it. | ||
| Let me explain something, though. | ||
| Ukraine is going to be the reason the dollar falls. | ||
| I can't say that enough. | ||
| And Steve, you talk about it all the time. | ||
| You and I understand the value of the dollar. | ||
| If the dollar falls, it doesn't matter what party you are. | ||
| It doesn't matter if you hate politics. | ||
| We're all screwed. That's it. | ||
| And so Ukraine is that big of an issue. | ||
| And any Republican that keeps supporting it is doing the wrong thing for this country. | ||
| What time is the podcast? | ||
| When can people look for it? The podcast is going to be rolling out tonight at 9 p.m. | ||
| 9 p.m. tonight. | ||
| We're going to pick it up on Getter. | ||
| It's right before the Royce White. | ||
| We do him at 10. We're going to do it at 9 o'clock. | ||
| We'll pick it up and have a live chat. | ||
| Awesome. Thank you. Thank you. | ||
| Thank you for taking time away to come in the studio. | ||
| Thanks, Steve. We've got a lot going on in New York. | ||
| You have this intense hearing. | ||
| You've got Gates, Stefanik, all of them. | ||
| They're drilling down on the lawlessness of bragging, that source back crowd up there. | ||
| We've also got Joe Allen. | ||
| Last night, 60 Minutes, bombshells on artificial intelligence. | ||
| John Solomon's going to back up what MTG has said about the laptop from hell. | ||
| We've got an amazing piece in the New York Times with our own Terry Schilling was profiled about. | ||
| Guess what? The right fights back on this transgender ideology. | ||
| All next in the War Room. | ||
|

|
Bring it on and now we'll fight to the end. | |
| Just watch and see. It's all started. | ||
| Everything's begun. | ||
| And you are over. | ||
| Cause we're taking down the CCP. 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 CCP. The new social media taking on big tech, protecting free speech, and canceling cancel culture. | ||
| Join the marketplace of ideas. | ||
| The platform for independent thought has arrived. | ||
| Superior technology. | ||
| No more selling your personal data. | ||
| No more censorship. | ||
| No more cancel culture. | ||
| Enough. Getter has arrived. | ||
| It's time to say what you want, the way you want. | ||
| Download now. | ||
| Artificial intelligence, machines that can teach themselves superhuman skills. | ||
| We explored what's coming next at Google, a leader in this new world. | ||
| CEO Sundar Pichai told us AI will be as good or as evil as human nature allows. | ||
| BARD appeared to possess the sum of human knowledge with microchips more than 100,000 times faster than the human brain. | ||
| We asked Bard to summarize the New Testament. | ||
| It did in five seconds and 17 words. | ||
| In Latin. | ||
| We asked for it in Latin. | ||
| That took another four seconds. | ||
| Of the AI issues we talked about, the most mysterious is called emergent properties. | ||
| Some AI systems are teaching themselves skills that they weren't expected to have. | ||
| How this happens is not well understood. | ||
| There is an aspect of this which we call, all of us in the field, call it as a black box. | ||
| You know, you don't fully understand, and you can't quite tell why it said this or why it got wrong. | ||
| We have some ideas, and our ability to understand this gets better over time, but that's where the state of the art is. | ||
| You don't fully understand how it works, and yet you've turned it loose on society? | ||
| Let me put it this way, I don't think we fully understand how a human mind works either. | ||
| Error with confidence is called in the industry, hallucination. | ||
| Are you getting a lot of hallucinations? | ||
| Yes, which is expected. | ||
| No one in the field has yet solved the hallucination problems. | ||
| There are two views of this. | ||
| There are a set of people who view this as, look, these are just algorithms. | ||
| They're just repeating what they've seen online. | ||
| Then there is the view where these algorithms are showing emergent properties. | ||
| To be creative, to reason, to plan, and so on. | ||
| It's good that some of these technologies are getting out. | ||
| It's so that society, you know, people like you and others can process what's happening, and we begin this conversation and debate, and I think it's important to do that. | ||
| Will the pace of change outstrip our ability to adapt? | ||
| I don't think so. I think that we, you know, we're sort of an infinitely adaptable species. | ||
| You know, you look at today us using all of our smartphones and other devices, and we effortlessly sort of adapt to these new technologies. | ||
| And this is going to be another one of those changes like that. | ||
| Now that humans have pulled the forbidden fruit of artificial knowledge... | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| ...we start the genesis of a new humanity. | ||
| I'm telling you, trying to be ironic in the end, but Scott Pelley was shocked the entire time. | ||
| If you didn't see CBS, we're going to figure out... | ||
| By the way, 8 o'clock tonight, we got Tucker Elon Musk. | ||
| We're going to do that. Put the chat room up for that on Getter. | ||
| 9 o'clock, we're going to do MTG. 10 o'clock, Royce White. | ||
| We're packed tonight. Make sure you don't miss any of it. | ||
| We got to do the CBS. I'll talk to Joe Allen. | ||
| Joe, okay, I'm now crowning myself the official head of the Luddites. | ||
| We've been doing this for three years, and this audience is very up to curve because of you, Joe Allen, and your tremendous work. | ||
| 60 Minutes goes out to a more general audience because it's broadcast. | ||
| If you're not petrified by what you saw last night, then you're not among the living. | ||
| It's out of control, and the people that are in charge of it admit it's out of control, Joe Allen. | ||
| Yes, Steve, I think anybody who watched 60 Minutes last night and is a war room viewer was not surprised at all by anything they saw. | ||
| I would say most of America not being necessarily up to speed on that probably was. | ||
| Three things they really hit that we've been talking about a lot and actually taken some criticism about because people tend to think of AI as just strings of code that are in complete control by the programmers. | ||
| Emergence is a big issue with artificial intelligence, especially emergence of properties or behaviors that are actually functional, that are effective. | ||
| So there's a great paper on GPT-4, which goes into all of the details about Why it is that you would have a system that is a large language model, and all it's supposed to do is predict the next word in a sentence, and yet it is able to solve mazes, it is able to pass tests, it's able to recognize images, so on and so forth. | ||
| Google's systems show the same. | ||
| They also show the propensity towards hallucination, as we just heard. | ||
| And hallucination basically is just the system makes things up, and it makes them up in an articulate fashion. | ||
| It's lying for reasons that they don't understand. | ||
| And that brings us to the third thing, the black box, which we've talked about a lot. | ||
| These systems are black boxes. | ||
| They don't understand Why they come up with the answers they do because they can't. | ||
| The systems are just too large and too complex to audit and you can't monitor it in real time. | ||
| You're going to come on. | ||
| I think we're going to get Solomon first. We're backed up, but I need you to stick around. | ||
| Hallucinations. Emerging properties and black box. | ||
| And you see the guys on there. | ||
| They barely were articulate about what the problems are. | ||
| And the buried lead that we're going to get into later in the show was what they showed as the greatest thing it had done about the proteins. | ||
| That's the thing that's probably the scariest. | ||
| because of what it really means which 60 minutes didn't quite catch 60 minutes it was good but no offense it was not at the level you can't dumb this down for people you got to raise the bar like we do here in the war room ladies and gentlemen as I keep telling you this is everything right now in that Google situation and deep mind think about it for a second This is about the 90th day. | ||
| I think it was the 17th of December. | ||
| This is like the 90th day. | ||
| 90 days into this. | ||
| Let me repeat this. We're only 90 days into it. | ||
| 90. 90 in the first 100 days. | ||
| Michael, on the voting, on just something simple, we can never have a machine again in anything. | ||
| You can't. The program itself will decide on who wins. | ||
| And I'm not saying they'll pick Democrats. | ||
| You don't know. I am now officially crowning myself, at least temporarily, as the head of the Luddites. | ||
| I'm going to look to put a crown on somebody's head. | ||
| We must stop this. | ||
| The plug must be pulled immediately. | ||
| Short break. 90 seconds. |
