The sound of the wind and the sound of the waves. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| Yeah, Santos is. | ||
| I think that the New York Republicans felt like they had to do this politically to even give themselves a chance to get rid of his baggage. | ||
| And to be honest, I think that the bigger threat to those Republicans in Biden districts right now is the new speaker, Mike Johnson. | ||
| Mike Johnson's record is so extreme on issues that voters, particularly in blue states, actually care about. | ||
| Social issues, gay rights, abortion, of course. | ||
| There's a new report out today, Andrew Kaczynski, about how it was just last year that Mike Johnson was writing the foreword to a book that pushed conspiracy theories. | ||
| And this guy is very extreme, and I think you can Make that case in a television ad a lot more clearly than you can to try to associate these guys with George Santos. | ||
| So, I think in some sense, he's off their back. | ||
| I think that's why this happened today. | ||
| And this is politics all the way down, frankly. | ||
| George Santos wasn't providing anything anymore to the Republicans that was useful. | ||
| And so, they felt like they could get rid of him and try to get rid of some of that baggage. | ||
| I think that it'll be Mike Johnson's baggage that has more permanence. | ||
| George Santos there. | ||
| George Santos coming down the stairs there of the Capitol. | ||
| Now you hear Martin trying to get to him. | ||
| As soon as he gets him, it looks like he isn't saying anything to anyone. | ||
| He has been talking a heck of a lot before this vote. | ||
| But now you see this vote. | ||
| 310. | ||
| The threshold was 290 to kick him out. | ||
| We are waiting to see if he says anything there. | ||
| Let's listen in. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Jumped in the car, closed the door. | ||
| Windows rolled up. | ||
| Mr. Santos, any comment? | ||
| Mr. Santos, any comment? | ||
| Let's go to the House floor, guys. | ||
| He just gaveled. | ||
| The Speaker's gaveling. | ||
| According to the Times, Israeli officials obtained an approximately 40-page document, which they codenamed, as Ed said, Jericho Wall. | ||
| It outlined, point by point, exactly the kind of devastating invasion that led to the deaths of about 1,200 people, probably many more. | ||
| The Times writes, Israeli military and intelligence officials dismissed the plan as aspirational, considering it too difficult for Hamas to carry out. | ||
| Earlier this morning, Israeli defense forces responded to the report, writing in a statement, quote, the IDF is currently focused on eliminating the threat from the terrorist organization Hamas. | ||
| Questions of this kind will be looked at into a later stage. | ||
| And I will say, Joe, that has been the answer from Benjamin Netanyahu and his people every step of the way. | ||
| We'll talk about this later. | ||
| The problem with that is, and we're going to talk to Jackie about this very soon. | ||
| And the reporter behind this piece. | ||
|

|
Right. | |
| The problem with that is that Israel needs U.S. | ||
|
unidentified
|
funding. | |
| We need to know what we're funding. | ||
| Are we funding Benjamin Netanyahu? | ||
| Are we funding his designs to stay in power? | ||
| Are we funding an operation where we have to look and guess, okay, well is this in the best interest of the Israeli people? | ||
| Or is this in the best interest of a prime minister who deliberately focused on the West Bank? | ||
| Deliberately turned a blind eye to this plan for a year. | ||
| A year where it's specifically laid out. | ||
| So, I'm not so sure that Congress and the President want to approve even more money for Israel until we know that there's actually somebody running Israel that even the Israelis support. | ||
| The Israelis don't trust Benjamin Netanyahu. | ||
| The region doesn't trust Benjamin Netanyahu. | ||
| Political leaders in the United States don't trust Benjamin Netanyahu. | ||
| So there's not really a later. | ||
| Later is now. | ||
|

|
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | |
| Bye. | ||
| Pray for our enemies. | ||
|
unidentified
|
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? | ||
|
unidentified
|
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. Babb. | |
| It's Friday, 1 December in the year of our Lord, 2023. | ||
| We want to thank you for joining us for our late afternoon, early evening edition of the War Room. | ||
| We're going to start. | ||
| We've got Boris Epstein, one of the senior advisors to the president. | ||
| Trump and also Ambassador Rick Rennell. | ||
| I want to start with Boris, who joins us by phone. | ||
| Boris, even as we speak, there's shelling, there's rockets coming in from the Muslim Brotherhood franchisee Hamas. | ||
| IDF is hitting back hard. | ||
| There's still some discussion of a continuum, maybe, you know, more hostages, but right now they're back at it. | ||
| Your thoughts? | ||
| Steve, I'm going to be with you, I'm going to be with Aposti. | ||
| My thoughts are that Hamas is a terrorist organization. | ||
| And that it is absolutely shameful that Joe Biden, Blinken, and all of these corrupt, crooked actors have been pushing in Israel, and frankly, the fact that way too many Jewish people around the world have been pushing Israel for some sort of detente with Hamas. | ||
| And we know who they are. | ||
| They told us who they are. | ||
| All you have to do is look at the videos from October 7th. | ||
| If you look at the first-person accounts of the murder, the savagery, the rape, the absolute Inhumane behavior toward women and children and the elderly, it is despicable that somehow the world is now okay, and American leadership is okay, with considering and talking about extended truces, extended, you know, stand-down agreements. | ||
| The reality is this. | ||
| Israel was attacked by savage force on October 7th, and Israel has got to continue fighting for itself and cannot in any way Trust that Hamas or anyone backing Hamas are going to want to do anything but murder Israelis in broad daylight. | ||
| There's all this news coverage out of France, out of Sweden, out of the Netherlands, of course the mothers in Ireland. | ||
| I just want to make sure people understand that this is not simply about Israel. | ||
| Israelis are Jews throughout the world. | ||
| In Rockefeller Center, and Boris, you're a New York City guy, you know what a tremendous tradition that is about lighting the Christmas tree. | ||
| These Sharia supremacists show up and try to ruin that for the kids. | ||
| I mean, what they did is they tried to shut down the traditional kickoff to Christmas in New York City. | ||
| You know, what's your take on where, you know, why is the world not connecting the Sharia supremacism in the Civil War in France, what's going on with these North African and Middle Eastern immigrants in Ireland, what's happening in Sweden right now, Gerd Filders, and what's happening in New York City? | ||
| The reason the world isn't connecting is because most of the mainstream media doesn't want the world to connect. | ||
| But it is clear, as did anybody who bothers to take a half a look, that the real story, the real issue here is that Sharia law, far extreme, extreme jihadi terrorism, but also deep anti-Semitism all over the world and here in the United States have now connected. | ||
| And the result, Steve, as you said, is what's happening on the streets of New York, what's happening in Ireland, obviously what happened in Israel, and the only way to fight it is with strength. | ||
| It's not with weakness. | ||
| It's not with collaborationism. | ||
| It is not with appeasement. | ||
| It is with strength. | ||
| Strength that President Donald J. Trump exhibited in four years in office will exhibit again when he's back in the White House. | ||
| It is with strength that the Israeli founders exhibited, that Israeli fighters exhibited in 1967 and 1973. | ||
| It is with strength. | ||
| That is the only way that the state of Israel is going to survive, and it is the only way that the Jewish people long-term are going to survive. | ||
| And if someone said, well, let's hope everything's going to be okay, let's be nice, and what about this and what about that? | ||
| That's nonsense. | ||
| The reality is clear. | ||
| The state is under attack. | ||
| The Jewish people are under attack. | ||
| And to any liberal Jew in America or around the world, you need to be looking at yourself in the mirror. | ||
| And I've been saying this, I'm proud to have been saying this on the show, Steve, for years and years and years. | ||
| Look at yourselves in the mirror and think about whether all of that nonsense about, oh, we're all the same and the world is one and we're all friends and, you know, DEI and all the other nonsense acronyms. | ||
| All of that was worth it to end up where we are today with swastikas being drawn on Chabad all over the country and Jewish kids being unsafe going to school. | ||
| Was it worth it to be backing liberals like Ilhan Omar or Rashida Tlaib? | ||
| Was it worth it? | ||
| Think about it. | ||
| And not think about it theoretically. | ||
| Think about it in terms of dead Jews in Israel on October 7th and scared Jews in America and all over the world. | ||
| And if you are somebody who voted for liberals for years and years and years, somebody who was a collaborationist, somebody who went out there and said, well, no, it's okay. | ||
| We're all the same and we're all friendly and we all, you know, we could all get along. | ||
| Was it worth it? | ||
| Here's the answer. | ||
| It wasn't. | ||
| And the time to come to grips with the reality is now. | ||
| And to be frank, to be fair, a lot of people are. | ||
| A lot of Jewish people in America now are. | ||
| Break it up and say, hey, you know what? | ||
| No more. | ||
| No more of this nonsense. | ||
| But it has to be everybody. | ||
| Every Jewish person, every person needs to look at themselves in the mirror. | ||
| Look at the threat that's coming. | ||
| We have no southern border. | ||
| We have absolutely no way to know who's in this country. | ||
| And if you think that these terror attacks are just something that's going on over the Middle East, you are kidding yourself. | ||
| Americans have to bring President Trump back to the Oval Office as soon as possible. | ||
| And that is the only way that our country is going to be saved. | ||
| Boris, in the next hour we're going to go to Rome with Ben Harn, where we're going to talk about the cover story of The Economist this week, also report out the day that Putin's approval rating in Russia is 80%. | ||
| Reuters is reporting that across the entire front in Ukraine that the Russian military is on the advance. | ||
| Zelensky last night gave a talk to his people that was totally different. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He said we have to prepare for defense, we have to shift all our offensive capability The reality, Steve, is again, as I said on the show, you know, straight the day of, I believe, the beginning of the war in Ukraine, the invasion, this was a huge mistake by Putin. | |
| Undoubtedly a huge mistake. | ||
| Having said that, The way the world and Joe Biden have treated this disaster, an absolute dumpster fire surrounded by nuclear reactors, has been a disgrace. | ||
| And that's why we are where we are. | ||
| And how is it going to work out? | ||
| It's going to work out in more and more and more and more bloodshed. | ||
| It has been an absolute lesson in how not to handle a crisis, how not to handle a war for everybody from Putin to Biden to the European Union and to the Ukraine. | ||
| It's only going to continue to fester and only, again, with the leadership of President Trump, be able to solve it. | ||
| By the way, real quick, we've got about a minute. | ||
| President Trump's speech tomorrow in Iowa, my understanding, he's going to go on offense. | ||
| He's tired of these attacks on him about democracy. | ||
| He's going to lay out the case about what Joe Biden is doing to undermine democracy. | ||
| Your thoughts? | ||
| All you have to do is look at what's happening with the lawfare and weaponization. | ||
| Election interference all over the country. | ||
| Today there was a hearing in Georgia. | ||
| President Trump's attorney, powerhouse attorney Steve Sadov saying that exactly what Fannie Willis, the Fulton County DA, corrupt DA, is doing is election interference. | ||
| And the judge turned around and said, hey, is it? | ||
| So now we finally have fair, smart judges in Georgia, smart judge in, of course, obviously a fair judge in Florida, who are standing up to this weaponization, this unconstitutional attack against President Trump that's going on, the gag orders, which are a complete deprivation of First Amendment rights. | ||
| All of these hoaxes, they are an attack on our democracy, an attempt to make America into a banana republic where President Trump will not back down, he'll continue to fight, including tomorrow when he lays out another powerhouse speech in Iowa. | ||
| Boris how do people get to you, sir? | ||
| Steve, thank you so much for having me. | ||
| My information, the website is hot, hot on boriscp.com, hot on Twitter at boriscp, hot on Gitter at boriscp, hot on Tumblr at Boris, the hottest Instagram. | ||
| Boris, I'm a scrub star. | ||
| Stay strong, God bless, and Shabbat Shalom! | ||
| Back in a moment with Rick Renato. | ||
| ... how we can harness AI to advance our mission, to your first question, Ina, and then also defending against the adverse use of AI, whether that's in the context of disinformation, whether that's in the context of reducing barriers to the development of biological weapons, for example. | ||
| That is something that we're very keenly focused on and that the president's executive order speaks of specifically. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I remember a time when at least the way I perceived the world was that you had an agreed upon set of facts and very different values in America. | |
| You know, we've always been a divided country with a wide range of opinions, but I feel like for several years, many years now, It feels like we're also divided on what the facts are. | ||
| The term fake news is used very frequently. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I actually take issue with that term because if it's fake it's not news. | |
| I know Eric Schmidt spoke earlier today and he speaks in his article with Dr. Kissinger Aren't a huge portion of the threats facing us people that are no longer guided by facts within our own borders? | ||
| in science and what that age of reason meant, I don't think we necessarily lose our anchor of empiricism. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Aren't a huge portion of the threats facing us people that are no longer guided by facts within our own borders? | |
| I mean, it seems to me that domestic terrorism fueled by people who have a different understanding of facts, to put it mildly, is one of the major threats facing the country. | ||
| Well, one element of it is false narratives. | ||
| I was going to say, don't they think an election was stolen? | ||
| False narratives. | ||
| But the most predominant source of that violence is actually ideologies of hate. | ||
| When I speak of digital literacy, I speak of some very fundamental education programs. | ||
| I have a magic wand and I occasionally... This Axios AI conference, I can't tell you how important this is in going forward. | ||
| I'm bringing Ambassador Rick Grinnell. | ||
| I've got a lot of stuff geopolitically to ask you, Rick, but Ambassador, Correct me if I'm wrong, did you not sue Mayorkas and this crowd over DHS a week or so ago? | ||
| Yeah, over intelligence issues. | ||
| They're stacking intelligence boards, which I'm sitting there listening to these two and thinking, if there's one group that is literally trying to take away any discussion of information and pretend like only their side controls the facts, it's this group. | ||
| It's unbelievable. | ||
| Somebody should just put a mirror up. | ||
| But you could almost see them salivating, Steve, because when the when the left and these big government types see the power of AI, you know what they're doing? | ||
| They want to operationalize it. | ||
| They want to throw money to it. | ||
| They want to make an entire new bureaucracy. | ||
| They want to infiltrate the current bureaucracies with it. | ||
| This is a powerful tool, and they want it in their hands. | ||
| They want to control it, which is why there's now an executive order, which is the longest executive order in the history of man. | ||
| Because they want every detail surrounding it to be theirs. | ||
| And look, I think conservatives have to think very clearly about this because we can't just simply say, we want small government, therefore we're going to ignore it and throw this to the free market. | ||
| And then the big government people are saying, well, we're the only ones that are going to deal with AI. | ||
| No, we have to deal with AI in a way that is consistent with our values, which first and foremost is keep government out. | ||
| We can't just simply say, we're going to ignore this because it's not a government's role. | ||
| We have to be aggressive about keeping government out. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I want to continue on. | ||
| I want you to hear Eric Schmidt, what he had to say, and then I would like your comments. | ||
| Go ahead and play the Eric Schmidt part. | ||
|

|
It works with nurse practitioners, medical professionals all around the world. | |
| Why don't you just take every student in the world and give them an AI tutor, which is not a substitute for a teacher, but works with the teachers in their language to bring them up and learn in whatever way they learn best for their ultimate potential. | ||
| I defy you to argue that an AI doctor for the world and an AI tutor is net negative. | ||
| It just has to be good. | ||
| Smarter, healthier people has got to be good for our future. | ||
| Now there's all sorts of problems, there's hallucinations, all of those are under development. | ||
| But I think from our perspective in the current phase, you're going to see AI doctor, AI tutor, enormous progress in science, enormous progress in language with all the associated issues. | ||
| If you look at the UK event, which I was part of, the UK government, government took the bait, took the ideas, decided to lead. | ||
| They're very good at this. | ||
| And they came out with very sensible guidelines. | ||
| And because the U.S. | ||
| and the U.K. | ||
| have worked really well together, there's a group within the National Security, NSC here, that is particularly good at this. | ||
| And they got it right. | ||
| And that produced this EO, which is the longest EO, I think, in histories of executive orders, which says that each of the aspects of our government are to get organized around this. | ||
| If you look at what we're doing collectively, it's not enough. | ||
| We're not claiming this is the end solution, but it's the beginning. | ||
| You've been very focused on Ukraine and... Let me have it. | ||
| By the way, Ambassador, you know the UK guys are talking about MI5 and MI6, working with the national security state, the deep state, you know the group at the NSC they're talking about. | ||
| But the chilling part is, Schmidt goes, each aspect of our government will now be organized around artificial intelligence. | ||
| What say you, sir? | ||
| I mean, you got to just listen to him, right? | ||
| He's saying every single agency of the US government is going to have to understand this. | ||
| Every single student and every single teacher in the world must have this. | ||
| And then he says, but that's just the beginning. | ||
| I'm going to control everything from the government, but that's just the beginning. | ||
| I mean, come on, these people are crazy. | ||
| Whenever you have a new technology, That is absolutely immediately taken over by the people who want to operationalize it and fund it from within the government. | ||
| You should immediately say, wait a minute, we don't want government to be the leader on these things. | ||
| The government is not the best. | ||
| I mean, I can tell you, I've spent 12 years at the State Department. | ||
| Giving the State Department the ability to do AI, they wouldn't know what to do. | ||
| They literally, this is not their expertise. | ||
| We have to be able to say on programs like this, if we need a regulatory path on this, okay, let's go slow, but let's have experts that actually understand it, Be able to think through these issues. | ||
| Don't throw it to the Commerce Department or the State Department or the Defense Department, which is totally ill-equipped to do this. | ||
| We need experts. | ||
| And so that's why we have this philosophy within the conservative movement that government should be minimized. | ||
| It should only be utilized when there is a failure within the free market. | ||
| Let's let the ideas come forward before we triangulate it. | ||
| and kill it by operationalizing it in every single bureaucracy of the federal government. | ||
| This is a joke and I'd love to debate Mr. Schmidt there, who constantly is trying to grab power and control the technology advancements That Google has that anyone else has over the people. | ||
| These individuals think the people are stupid and just like we've been watching in the movies where there's the capital and then there's the people on the outside. | ||
| The capital is the system. | ||
| That completely wants to control the rest of the individuals way out in the hinterland. | ||
| And how dare you ever try to challenge the capital, because the capital is all-knowing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We've seen this movie before. | |
| I've got a couple things I've got to get on the table with you. | ||
| I'm glad you broke out time. | ||
| You were part of the team with the president that brought peace in the Middle East with the Abraham Accords. | ||
| You also negotiated and brought peace to the Balkans, which is not an easy task as history shows. | ||
| Would you ever, Grinnell, would you ever, would you and President Trump, when you were working with him, would you have ever allowed Qatar to basically negotiate the deals with the Muslim Brotherhood in Hamas, sir? | ||
| Yeah, no. | ||
| I mean, the answer is no. | ||
| We wouldn't allow any other country to try to come up and be America first, right? | ||
| The only people that are going to be America first are Americans. | ||
| Because every other country is going to put themselves first, as they should, Steve. | ||
| I worked at the U.N. | ||
| for eight years, and there's 193 countries there. | ||
| 192 of them always put themselves first, and the one country that gets in trouble when they put themselves first is the United States. | ||
| And so what we have to be able to do is equip our foreign service officers, our embassies around the world with the tools that say you work for the United States. | ||
| The United States worker pays your salary. | ||
| Our embassies should be hubs. | ||
| for Americanism, and we should turn these in operationally into helping American businesses grow jobs. | ||
| This is why the State Department should exist, is to help make America stronger, better, safer. | ||
| And when that happens, I can argue that when we put ourselves first, because we are not a country that seeks to conquer and take away others' rights, I think that when America puts itself first, The world is safer, and I can tell you that there's a whole bunch of countries that think that that's true. | ||
| We bring capitalism, democracy, human rights, the rule of law. | ||
| This is a philosophical exercise. | ||
| You know, people called it a peace through strength, but President Trump calls it America first. | ||
| It's the same thing, and it's very philosophical, and it's very safe for the rest of the world. | ||
| Ambassador, can you just hang on for a second? | ||
| You've had dealings with Jack Smith. | ||
| at the Hague when he's in the Balkans. | ||
| His activity is quite disturbing. | ||
| I want to ask your thoughts on that. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| By the way, go to Birchgold. | ||
| Gold closed today at the highest historical high. | ||
| I think $2,084. | ||
| Now listen, we're not personal financial advisors, but we do lay out the macro case. | ||
| Just call Birchgold. | ||
| Birchgold.com slash Bannett. | ||
| Get Philip Patrick and the team on there. | ||
| Ask them about the de-dollarization movement in the world. | ||
| Ask them why the BRICS Nation are buying golds at record rate at 22 and 23 is going to be another record year. | ||
| Ask them why your Federal Reserve is working on a central bank digital currency. | ||
| And then step aside and think about it. | ||
| Birchgold.com slash Bannock. | ||
| Gold at an all-time high today. | ||
| Short break. | ||
| Back in a moment. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannock. | |
| Okay, I'm going to get to all the George Santos stuff in a second. | ||
| We've got a cold open. | ||
| There's a huge article up. | ||
| The lead on Newsweek is about my... | ||
| Thoughts on that, saying that this is going to be a firestorm in the Republican Party, because this is all McCarthy-led. | ||
| I'll get to all that momentarily. | ||
| Also want to remind everybody of AmFest, 16th and 19th, in Phoenix, Arizona. | ||
| The site's blown up. | ||
| Best set of speakers I've ever seen. | ||
| Breakout sessions. | ||
| War Room's going to be there, broadcasting live. | ||
| Breakout sessions, meet and greets, all of it. | ||
| Sidebars, we want everybody there. | ||
| We end 23 and launch 24 at AmFest. | ||
| Charlie Kirk and his team have just done a tremendous job. | ||
| There will be thousands and thousands of people there. | ||
| We want to meet everybody and make sure we have a great time. | ||
| It's going to be fun, too. | ||
| A lot of fun. | ||
| See you at AmFest. | ||
| Grinnell. | ||
| First off, Grinnell, everybody should understand, Grinnell's going to be the Secretary of State in Trump's second term. | ||
| So, I mean, this is like having a smarter Tony Blinken. | ||
| I'm serious about it. | ||
| Would the nation not rather have Rick Grinnell up there banging heads than Tony Blinken? | ||
| I mean, this whole thing is a disaster, and you see that. | ||
| Jack Smith, you came on the show a couple of months ago, and you warned The country about Jack Smith, as you're bringing peace to the Balkans, he's over there stirring it up and getting CIA guys to lie and everything. | ||
| Is he not doing the same thing here? | ||
| I mean, this is a scary guy, Grinnell. | ||
| Your thoughts? | ||
| Yeah, look, I mean, our media has got to start digging into this. | ||
| There is so much there. | ||
| Jack Smith, when he was At the Hague was there detailed from the Department of Justice, Department of Justice paying the Hague. | ||
| Steve, I actually think that there is a very real lawsuit that says Jack Smith is not from outside the government, which is supposed, the special counsels are supposed to be from outside the government. | ||
| He was working very closely with DOJ. | ||
| Matter of fact, when I called DOJ officials when I was the acting DNI and I told them that Kosovo and Serbia, the leaders at the time, had agreed in this big, huge normalization, economic normalization and peace agreement, they had agreed to get rid of the Hague court that was overseeing Kosovo and the Serbian war and all the war crimes that came after that. | ||
| I spent a number of years at the UN working on this issue, so I knew it very well. | ||
| And the reality is, is that Jack Smith saw us making progress. | ||
| He saw President Trump bringing the leader of Kosovo, Hašim Topči, and the leader of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, to the White House to solve these problems. | ||
| When I tipped off the DOJ, and I told them that we were going to get rid of, or seek the UN Security Council to get rid of, The international court at The Hague that Jack Smith was in charge of, ending Jack Smith's job, DOJ official Bruce Schwartz was his name, panicked and he said, oh no, Rick, we can't do this. | ||
| I need to talk to Jack about it. | ||
| And he came back and said, you know, no, Jack, he doesn't want the court to end. | ||
| It was literally within just a few weeks after I made that call, Steve, That Jack Smith came up with phony indictments for Hashim Thaci, the president of Kosovo at the time. | ||
| That president is still sitting in a Hague prison two and a half years later. | ||
| This is European justice? | ||
| Two and a half years without having a trial? | ||
| You sit in a court? | ||
| It's really, honestly, an outrage. | ||
| And Europeans and Balkan leaders know that this is an outrage. | ||
| By the way, it sounds like they're doing a Jack Lang. | ||
| It's absolutely outrageous. | ||
| Ambassador Grinnell, what's your social media? | ||
| We want you back on here more often as we got to have your breakdown of this fiasco of the Biden regime's national security foreign policy. | ||
| Also, I just want to make sure people know, DNI, tell people what that is. | ||
| I mean, you're the guy, every intelligence agency, I think there's 16 of them all reported to you, correct? | ||
| You're above the CIA as President Trump's deputy for all that, correct? | ||
| Yeah, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence heads the President's briefing. | ||
| The intelligence briefing and coordinates the intelligence agencies. | ||
| After 9-11, we came up with the idea that our intelligence agencies were vast and not talking to each other, and that was a problem. | ||
| Let me add one thing, Steve, that I think that we really got to look into that relates to this. | ||
| That little clip that you had of the morning show where they were so outraged that Israel is known for a year. | ||
| Let me be very clear about something. | ||
| If Israel knew for a year that Hamas was coming, so did Avril Haines and the entirety of the United States. | ||
| Bingo. | ||
| Is there any, I said this on, I said, I said this on, I said this the day, I said this the day when Posovic's there. | ||
| Is there any chance, we know Mossad and Shin Ben and these people dropped the ball, IDF intelligence. | ||
| Is there any chance We should do a whole show on this. | ||
| There is no chance that we didn't have raw intelligence. | ||
| those guys had a year before, given our involvement with UAE, Saudi, Egyptian, Turkish intelligence, sir, any chance? | ||
| We should do a whole show on this. There is no chance that we didn't have raw intelligence. | ||
| There's a very large chance that the analysts, the people who take the little pieces of information that they see and write opinion pieces about this is where I think it's going from the raw intelligence. For sure we had raw intelligence pointing to this. | ||
| And for sure, clearly, either on purpose or by mistake, our analysts missed it. | ||
| The same analysts who told us we'd have World War III if we moved the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. | ||
| Amen. | ||
| Amen, brother. | ||
| Remember that. | ||
| Ambassador Grinnell, how do people get you? | ||
| We're going to have you back to go through this. | ||
| This is a big deal. | ||
| How do people follow you on social media? | ||
| On Instagram, I'm Richard Grinnell. | ||
| On Truth, I'm at Grinnell. | ||
| And on Twitter, I'm at Richard Grinnell. | ||
|

|
Love the follow of the War Room Faithful. | |
| Thank you, brother. | ||
| Ambassador Rick Grinnell, thank you. | ||
| That's my friend. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| We don't give you personal financial advice, not what we do. | ||
| We lay out what's called macro, what kind of trends, things are going on. | ||
| And you've seen this as we've gone through what's happening and up on Capitol Hill, it's been a disaster. | ||
| This event today was Santos. | ||
| We're not here to defend Santos. | ||
| Santos is what he is. | ||
| You can see that. | ||
| But today for the first time, I think one of the sixth time in history and really the first time since You know, you've had some Confederates, you've had guys convicted, you've never had anybody just indicted. | ||
| The congressman today, Burleson, told you you're going to have indictments all over the place. | ||
| But more importantly, as I went through the vote and then talked later, this was clearly Kevin McCarthy and the Newsweek articles got it up. | ||
| This is going to start a real civil war. | ||
| McCarthy and his people want an abject failure in the House right now. | ||
| They want to, I tell you, they're never giving up. | ||
| The swamp and they're aligned with Mitch McConnell and these guys. | ||
| They do not want massive cuts. | ||
| They do not want any of the action we want in the House. | ||
| On the border, defunding Ukraine, making sure that if Israel, that the intelligence is working, that the IDF is working, and that there's offsets. | ||
| They don't want anything about what's happening culturally that should be defunded. | ||
| The Woken Weaponized, DOJ, Justice Department, FBI, any of it. | ||
| And today they declared war. | ||
| Because they were the ones that gave the votes that got the two-thirds to get Santos out. | ||
| And behind the scenes, I'm telling you, there's a lot of hate and discontent. | ||
| Now Burleson laid out a plan that we got to help Brother Johnson. | ||
| He's a good man, right? | ||
| But he's getting rolled. | ||
| And we got to have his back. | ||
| And Burleson laid out a hard program. | ||
| And I'm talking about killing stuff and rules, taking the Freedom Caucus and others down to the Rio Grande Valley and let them hang out there and start to seal the border and not be around for these votes so stuff can't go forward. | ||
| They want to play hardball. | ||
| And I think after this Santos thing, where you've got all these other Democrats running around, and you throw Santos out, and I'm not trying to defend Santos, I'm trying to defend the principal. | ||
| So this thing's going to be hot, heated, and quite frankly, urgent. | ||
| If Grace and Mo can put up, I haven't put it up on Getty yet. | ||
| I've been so occupied this afternoon. | ||
| The Newsweek article, it's the lead on Newsweek, about my thoughts about the firestorm this is going to create. | ||
| Talk about firestorms. | ||
| Also, we don't give personal advice, but gold did hit an all-time high. | ||
|
unidentified
|
$2,000.84. | |
| Go talk to Birch Gold today. | ||
| Because baby, I'm not here to give personal advice, but I'm telling you, the macro is only going to get worse. | ||
| The real macro, not the happy talk they put up there. | ||
| It's growing at 5%. | ||
| It's growing at 5% because you have a $2 trillion deficit. | ||
| You're spending $7 trillion. | ||
| Oh yeah, and their solution is come get your, you got that $1,200 social security check that you worked all your life and paid into and they want to take that away? | ||
| The Medicare, the little Medicare you got, you worked your whole life to pay tax to get that and they want to take that away? | ||
| Hey, the answer is not entitlements. | ||
| Back off. | ||
| Back the F off because we're not going to let you touch them. | ||
| You prove that you can cut discretionary spending. | ||
| You prove you can get all this corporate welfare out there and, wait for it, I'm going to say the magic phrase, massively raise taxes on these progressive billionaires. | ||
| Oh, and maybe the one or two mega billionaires in there. | ||
| Sorry, President Trump. | ||
| But we've got to raise taxes massively on billionaires, super billionaires. | ||
| These 497 on the Forbes 500 pushed it. | ||
| They push all these programs. | ||
| Forbes 400 or 500 pushed it. | ||
| They push all these programs, they should start paying for it. | ||
| Garrett, you've been on Firebrother. | ||
| They're coming after you. | ||
| Abby Lowell. | ||
| Here's a good thing, Garrett. | ||
| You did draw the first team. | ||
| I mean, Mark Elias and Abby Lowell, these are heavies. | ||
| You didn't draw minor leaguers. | ||
| They're coming after you with the biggest weapons they got. | ||
| Abby Lowell, can't stand him, but he's a tough and smart guy. | ||
| Tell me what your plan is here. | ||
| Well, thank you for having me on. | ||
| Just real quick, I have to thank you for what you said about the 1%. | ||
| It is absolutely the case, and the more we listen to the Tax Foundation and what I call conservatards, the more we're going to lose. | ||
| But switching gears now – well, not really all the way, but switching gears a little bit, that 1% is coming after us because a gentleman named Kevin Morris is financing the First Family. | ||
| He's financing Hunter Biden. | ||
| And we are in need of reinforcements with lawfare. | ||
| Remember, they don't have anything against us. | ||
| Our report is all true. | ||
| It's all legitimate. | ||
| But they know that this is a war of attrition, Steve, and we have the superior arms and soldiers, but they have deeper pockets. | ||
| And so what we are going to be doing is in two weeks, we have to file a reply in the federal court. | ||
| We've already won one of the cases in part against Kevin Morris in state court. | ||
| Remember, we are the tip of the spear on this. | ||
| There is no Hunter Biden counteroffensive without Kevin Morris. | ||
| Hunter Biden's entire lifestyle is being paid for by this bong smoking degenerate Hollywood attorney named Kevin Morris. | ||
| And so what we need is reinforcements. | ||
| … at fightbiden.org. | ||
| Fightbiden.org is our legal defense fund. | ||
| It will go straight to the attorney, and the reason for this is very simple. | ||
| This is a landmark case. | ||
| They're saying that we're not publishers. | ||
| All we did was publish the authentic data from the device, and they're cooking up these ridiculous private rights of action about the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. | ||
| It's utterly preposterous. | ||
| Abuelo, yes, he is shrewd. | ||
| I agree with you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's shrewd. | |
| He's a tough hombre. | ||
| So is the other guy. | ||
| Listen, they're doing this for access to the most powerful person in the world, the illegitimate Joe Biden. | ||
| Real quickly, where do people go to immerse themselves in the information and see if they're interested? | ||
| Where do they go right now? | ||
| Tell us. | ||
| MarcoPolo501c3.org. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| Click Biden Laptop. | ||
| All the emails, all the photos, all of the text message from the device. | ||
| We put it all online for free, and it's making them lose their minds. | ||
| And this, what we want to do is before Hunter's deposition on the 12th, guys, we want to hand deliver a physical copy. | ||
| They were all sent the online version, which is free to read at bidenreport.com, but we want a physical copy given to every single member of Congress and every senator before his deposition on the 12th. | ||
| And so if there's any viewer out there that can cut a check for 25k, we'll ship And personally deliver, with video recording devices, a dossier to every single member of the House. | ||
| I would love for Dan Goldman to have to accept this from me personally. | ||
| And that'll all go to the Legal Defense Fund. | ||
| Sorry, go ahead. | ||
| Okay, one more time. | ||
| What's the site that you go to? | ||
| We gotta bounce. | ||
| Give them the site again, so people can go. | ||
| See if they're interested. | ||
| Fightbiden.org. | ||
| Fightbiden.org. | ||
| Yeah, fightbiden.org. | ||
| That's all it is. | ||
| We need reinforcements, though. | ||
| We need reinforcements. | ||
| We're the tip of the spear. | ||
| They're trying to take us out through lawfare. | ||
| War of attrition. | ||
| I appreciate you giving me this opportunity. | ||
| Thanks Garrett. | ||
| Thank you brother. | ||
| Keep fighting. | ||
| Back in a moment. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| Okay, Jake Hoffman, the great Jake Hoffman, puts up the fact that this is on Twitter, the fact that House Republicans expelled George Santos with no convictions before they impeached Joe Biden shows you we are still not playing in the same arena. | ||
| Amen. | ||
| When are we going to go on offense? | ||
| Don't spend your time on Santos. | ||
| Let the voters deal with him. | ||
| Let the courts deal with him. | ||
| Don't need to do that. | ||
| The people that did it, it's all McCarthy. | ||
| This is the cleavage. | ||
| This is now a civil war inside the house. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| We ain't going to lose this one. | ||
| More about that tomorrow. | ||
| Grace, tomorrow, okay, we're jammed. | ||
| We got a live show. | ||
| We're going to have CPAC Japan. | ||
| We got Pacific over there. | ||
| Schlapp, we're doing a Monroe Doctrine thing because it's the 200th anniversary of that. | ||
| We're talking about potential kinetic war in Latin America. | ||
| We're going to have border stuff, we're going to be crazed, more Santos, more the Civil War, more the financing, more of all of it. | ||
| Then afterwards at one o'clock, Real America's Voice on the second Rumber channel are going to have this, The Families of Fentanyl. | ||
| We're going to live stream it on Getter. | ||
| I'll be there to make commentary. | ||
| Then at five, you and Mo, Grace, or I guess Grace, you may be in motion somewhere. | ||
| We're going to put up, Jane and Mo and I are going to put up The President's speech from Iowa, I think it's at 5 p.m. | ||
| Eastern. | ||
| I'll have more on it tomorrow. | ||
| You cannot miss that. | ||
| He's coming out guns blazing. | ||
| And then, Grace, you're going to go to the Joe Allen. | ||
| What time does that start? | ||
| Because you're going to try to do, we're going to try to do a pregame over at AFA in the Lux Hotel tomorrow with our own on-site correspondent, Grace Chung. | ||
| Grace, what time is that going to be? | ||

| He's got a lot to talk about. | ||
| I think president Trump has had a belly full of this thing with, uh, Biden calling us fascists, calling, uh, that he's for democracy. | ||
| I think president Trump is kind of, you got to go pretty far in the woods to hit his trip wire. | ||
| I think we've hit his trip wire. | ||
| I think he's got a couple of three things to say to Joe Biden into that illegitimate regime. | ||
| Uh, that's over there. | ||
| Remember the guy earlier saying, oh, this is misinformation. | ||
| Hey, suck on this. | ||
| Biden lost the 2020 election, and we ain't never backing down one iota of that. | ||

| Okay, stick around. |
