But at the same time, the House is rejecting the Senate deal, and then also trying to impeach the Homeland Security Secretary. | |
| What exactly are they accusing him of doing? | ||
| First of all, pretty far removed from what David's dealing with at the border, right? | ||
| I think we're crystallizing that just in this report. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, first we'll start with Alejandro Mayorkas. | ||
| We're in the midst of a marathon hearing, a markup on a resolution that will begin the process of impeaching him. | ||
| Republicans arguing that he is not rightly enforcing the law. | ||
| and doing it willfully as a way to allow more illegal immigrants or undocumented migrants into this country. | ||
| This, of course, is something the Democrats are pushing back on, and it comes against the backdrop of negotiations that are happening in the Senate, of which Mayorkas is a part of, where they are very close to hatching a deal that would give the administration more authority to deal with some of these issues that are happening every single day at the border and stem that flow of migrants coming into the country. | ||
| In fact, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer just a few minutes ago said on the Senate floor that they are nearing the finish line on this package, but there is still work to be done. | ||
| So on one side of the chamber, you've got bipartisan negotiations to try and solve the problem. | ||
| On the other side of the Capitol, you have partisan bickering over the way the situation is being handled. | ||
| The sum total of it, Katie, is that they are just locking heads and not much progress is being made. | ||
| And to a lesser degree, Senate Republicans are starting to follow, saying, no, in fact, we don't need border legislation like that being worked on in the Senate. | ||
| Or even HR2, the centerpiece of House Republicans' really whole time in Washington here, the border bill that they passed last year that's gone nowhere. | ||
| They're saying, we don't need this. | ||
| It's up to Joe Biden. | ||
| And oh, by the way, we'd love to see Donald Trump pick up this issue again, should he be reelected. | ||
| You cover both these things. | ||
| You cover Donald Trump, you cover Capitol Hill. | ||
| Can you help me understand the dynamic on Capitol Hill and whether Republicans think it's a good idea to kick this can down the road and allow President Biden and the Democrats to say we tried to pass something and they stopped us? | ||
| For as long as I've covered Congress, Katie, and far predating that, there's been really two issues when it comes to addressing immigration from a legislative perspective. | ||
| Number one, it is really hard. | ||
| It's very complex. | ||
| It deals with both state law, federal law, international law, when it comes to asylum seekers. | ||
| There is a lot that goes into this, and it's very difficult to do. | ||
| It's an excellent issue to run on. | ||
| Both parties over time have found different reasons to use it as a wedge issue. | ||
| Most recently, and really going back to 2014 and around that time period about a decade ago, Republicans in particular have found it to be a far more effective issue to run on than to be seen trying to actually adjust in some meaningful way through legislation. | ||
| And so this is an issue which John Cornyn, the senator from Texas, once told me Congress has never failed to fail. | ||
| on addressing immigration. Trying to do it in big pieces has almost always been impossible. | ||
| Trying to take kind of little bites at the apple, kind of micro changes to immigration, has been the preferred approach over the last couple of years. I think even this border bill that's being negotiated behind closed doors now is much smaller ambitions, certainly than any Democrats wanted to see over the last couple of years. And even it might be too big to pass, particularly in an election year when all of a sudden the politics of the border get jacked up to about an 11 in campaign ads and talking points on the trail. | ||
| This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
| Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. | ||
| I got a free shot on 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? | ||

War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Bann. | |
| Welcome. | ||
| It's Tuesday, 30 January in the year of our Lord 2024. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| Hey, producer Harry and producer Cameron, since it's, you know, five o'clock in here, should we go ahead and we'll pay for happy hour? | ||
| Should we do that? | ||
| You like that? | ||
| Can we, Harry, where's Harry? | ||
| Harry knows something about happy hours. | ||
| Oh, he's left the building? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Oh, there's Harry. | ||
| Harry, we ought to think about how we organize a happy hour here. | ||
| Get this crowd even crazier. | ||
| Okay, a lot going on today. | ||
| We're at the Restore National Confidence RNC pre-meeting here at the Planet Hollywood on the Strip in Las Vegas, Nevada. | ||
| We're very fortunate to be here. | ||
| I want to thank Turning Point USA. | ||
| Patty Lyman is going to ride shotgun with me. | ||
| Patty, as you know, is from Virginia, a national committee man from Virginia. | ||
| National committee woman, yes. | ||
| Committee woman from Virginia, my home state, and you're a pretty hardcore Trump, aren't you? | ||
| I've been known for that. | ||
| Yes, I have been. | ||
| And I'm more hardcore than I've ever been. | ||
| And I got to be in New Hampshire last week. | ||
| You were surrogate. | ||
| And it was so exciting. | ||
| Well, I was talking to people about Trump as much as I could. | ||
| But yeah, I'm very excited. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| We don't often, Steve, have a chance to play a real role in saving the country. | ||
| This is it right now. | ||
| This is it. | ||
| That's why this group, this is why this group, by the way, we can get a shot of the crowd. | ||
| We're going to get to know all these people today. | ||
| I really want to thank them. | ||
| You have to be an activist. | ||
| You have to be a county chairman or with the precinct strategy or have a role in the grassroots. | ||
| Charlie invited everybody here to get solutions, right? | ||
| Not bring up issues, but get solutions. | ||
| I gave a talk earlier today. | ||
| We'll play some clips from that. | ||
| I think I was too subtle. | ||
| Right? | ||
| I think I think I was too understated, so we'll play that later, and I hope Rana gets clips of it, too, and does the right thing and kind of moves on. | ||
| Okay, before we get going, Ben Burcombe is going to be here. | ||
| Pei is going to be here. | ||
| We're going to get into the crowd, get to know people, see why they're here. | ||
| Big developments today on a couple things. | ||
| Obviously on the invasion of our country. | ||
| A lot going on Capitol Hill. | ||
| Of course you heard MSNBC say there's one group of people looking for a solution. | ||
| Of course that's the Democrats with their amnesty bill. | ||
| And of course the House Republicans and others are just looking to make this a political issue. | ||
| Nothing could be further from the truth. | ||
| But isn't it ironic on the very day that Lankford and these guys are trying to finish the text That the single person it would rotate around to execute is being impeached by the House, and the first time in a hundred years, Patty, being impeached for what? | ||
| For failing to carry out the laws that are on the books today that could shut down the entire border. | ||
| We don't need one more law. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Not one. | |
| We got plenty of laws there right now. | ||
| We don't even need H.R. | ||
|
unidentified
|
2. | |
| It's nice. | ||
| We don't need it. | ||
| Biden could shut the border down right now, except Remember, they're holding our border hostage because it's so important to get $60 billion over to the Victoria Nuland money laundering operation in Ukraine. | ||
| Big development this afternoon. | ||
| Ben Harnwell has stayed up late in Rome to break it. | ||
| Ben, was this the Guardian, the broker of the Times of London? | ||
| It looks like either a quasi-coup or a mutiny among the military in Ukraine against Zelensky. | ||
| Good evening, Steve. | ||
| Yes, this is breaking news. | ||
| And in fact, it's so breaking, the mainstream media somewhat conflicting itself on how to report this. | ||
| Basically, I'll go straight into it. | ||
| What has happened is yesterday, Kiev was rocked by rumours that President Zelensky had asked his commander in chief, General Valery Zelensky, he'd sacked him. | ||
| And then the president's office put out a statement saying, no, this isn't true. | ||
| But that's all they said. | ||
| It was a shortly worded statement. | ||
| And that obviously got more questions raised than answers. | ||
| The big news then today is that in that meeting yesterday, Zelensky asked General Zelensky to resign and Zelensky said no. | ||
| Now, that's a very interesting situation. | ||
| Some immediate questions are going to be raised on the back of that, which is, I mean, we can obviously predict the motivations behind it, but why didn't Zelensky formally fire him? | ||
| Probably because the fear is, is that Zelensky, Zelensky would have refused to have left his office of commander in chief and the army would have stayed loyal to him. | ||
| Hence your introductory words of mutiny. | ||
| This is the territory that we're in now. | ||
| This is where we're edging in now. | ||
| This is really where a formal coup could possibly take place. | ||
| Because now what is the scenario, Steve? | ||
| The scenario is that at this point, Zelensky doubles down and tries to formally fire General Zelensky, in which case he'll either accept that, Or he'll refuse to accept that. | ||
| And then that's really a question of who will the army stay loyal to. | ||
| Or Zelensky can blink and try to move on. | ||
| But at this point, because he's basically, it's within the error of difference between the two of them now who is the most popular in Ukraine. | ||
| You can't, I don't think, I don't think a president or head of state can ask for his commander-in-chief to resign, for that commander-in-chief to refuse and to continue with that tension in the middle of a war, which is going very badly for Ukraine right now. | ||
| One of those two sides, the civilian government or the military, will be making a move on the other one to resolve that. | ||
| So that's where the situation is right now, Steve. | ||
| And on the back of that, there's also a lot of fallout. | ||
| We haven't had a chance, sadly, to cover this on the show yet, but there was this investigation that uncovered $40 million worth of corruption within the Ukrainian military establishment. | ||
| Now, just to say how absurd this is, in the middle of a war, the maximum sentence for this and that the courts | ||
| I think that illustrates for the American audience that you have seated right before you how the lack of fundamental seriousness with which they treat your money today, with which they have been treating your money for the past two years. | ||
| So here's a couple things. | ||
| Number one, the $40 million is for fake invoices for artillery shells. | ||
| We know that the corruption runs much deeper, but it looks like it was Zelensky and the political guys that are moving against the military, even some of the military executives, if not the generals. | ||
| We've heard rumors before, this is the first time it's called, that Zelensky and the army, the uniformed services, are at loggerheads about how to defend against potential Russian assaults. | ||
| Zelensky still wants to go on offense, because he wants to show the West they're making progress. | ||
| The generals are saying, hey, unless we dig in, the Russians may run the tables, because this will be the first break. | ||
| What do you think it means, given we're in the middle of this fight? | ||
| I mean, they're talking about now Johnson said today they may chop up, since the immigration thing is not going to pass, they may chop up the request and have Israel separate from Ukraine because Israel's got a better chance of being approved. | ||
| Do you think this kills any chance that the U.S. | ||
| will put in the $60 billion, given the corruption, given the fact that there's a massive split in this government right now? | ||
| Well Steve, this could go either way and it could happen today, it could happen while we're on air, it could happen in a week, it could happen in a month. | ||
| The situation needs to be resolved and I would be surprised if the Biden administration is willing to give any money at this moment in time because it could conceivably It could conceivably authorize 60 billion and end up having that money go to what will be a military dictatorship by the time the money arrives. | ||
| So these are questions, you know, I think even in this situation, all of the Western governments which are supporting Ukraine need to know whom they are giving this money to and to what end. | ||
| I repeat, because this could very, very easily turn out to be a military dictatorship at any point. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Now, in answer to your first point, Steve... | |
| Macron did say today that if the U.S. is out, Europe's going to have to step up, and I said good luck on that, right? | ||
| Last thing, remember last year at Davos, Zelensky lectured us saying we didn't know enough about World War II history, and we told Zelensky, did that from the stage, we should read more memoirs of World War II. | ||
| We said, hey dude, you should read The Best and the Brightest About Vietnam and focus on the chapter about President Diem. | ||
| Because when the CIA and those guys finish with you, they back the truck up and say, hey, we have a plane at the airport to take you away, put you in the back of the truck, and you never make the plane. | ||
| And Zelensky better understand that it looks like the U.S. | ||
| security apparatus could be done with him. | ||
| Ben Harnwell. | ||
| Steve, look, can I just come back to President Macron, because he also said something very interesting today in Sweden. | ||
| He actually said that the war in Ukraine is contributing towards the crisis in French farming. | ||
| This is because of the tariff-free Ukrainian imports that are flooding the French market. | ||
| So all of these things are tied together, and they're creating chaos and instability right across the European continent, and of course right across the West generally. | ||
| So that's another point of political pressure. | ||
| How much longer can the West remain united in its diminishing and dwindling support of Ukraine? | ||
| And just to come back, the main point of contention between Zelensky and Zelensky here is still the issue of who is going to take responsibility for the drafting of up to 500,000 Ukraine That's deeply unpopular in Ukraine, and no one wants to touch it with a bargepump. | ||
| No one wants to touch it with a bargepump. | ||
| Ben, give your social media real quickly. | ||
| You have six seconds. | ||
| Getter at Hanwell, this is my sermon. | ||
| Thanks, Steve. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bass. | |
| I just want to share. | ||
| How many folks want to give 60 billion more dollars to the Ukrainian oligarchs? | ||
| Anyone? | ||
| How many are opposed? | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| This is, I tell you what, the blood of the Ukrainian people that are on the hands of Victoria Nuland over the State Department. | ||
| Remember, her husband, Kaplan, is the one that wrote that huge piece in the Washington Post about Red Caesarism, Trump as Caesar, that basically laid out the intellectual argument about why it is morally correct to assassinate Donald J. Trump. | ||
| That he's going to be like Caesar, right? | ||
| These are huge defense intellectuals, very dangerous people. | ||
| I don't think a secret service showed up at his house, right? | ||
| Because this is the type of pressure they want to put on President Trump. | ||
| By the way, Boris is going to join us at the bottom of the hour with some updates on the legal. | ||
| Patty Lyman, did we rock the house? | ||
| Has this group rocked the house across the street with the RNC? | ||
| Yes, and in fact, some spies were sent over here to participate. | ||
| Whoa, spies? | ||
| Yes, I recognize them. | ||
| They were fellow RNC members. | ||
| This is an earthquake, but it started with you. | ||
| It started with the grassroots. | ||
| Our party will only survive if we are completely grassroots-driven. | ||
| Everything has to bubble up from the bottom. | ||
| Since I came on the RNC, everything that I've tried to do has been to make us a grassroots-driven party. | ||
| We are a party who's divided into two sectors. | ||
| One sector is the new Republican Party, and I think a lot of you here are part of that party. | ||
| It's working class, it's middle class, it's family people, it's America first people. | ||
| It's people just trying to make it, and they have suffered tremendously in recent years. | ||
| And they got mad enough that they got involved. | ||
| A lot of them came in when President Trump ran, who not, he not only finally mentioned the middle class, working class people, he didn't just mention them, he made them the center of his campaign in 2016. | ||
| And that's when our party really started to morph. | ||
| But you know when it really changed? | ||
| Was after the screw job in 2020 and people that hadn't even paid attention before said, I'm not standing for it anymore. | ||
| I'm going to get involved. | ||
| We had the precinct committeeman project. | ||
| We had all these people taking over local parties, taking over state parties. | ||
| That's the new Republican Party. | ||
| That's the only Republican Party that will survive. | ||
| But there's another part, and that's the people that don't want that new party. | ||
| They don't want the people in that new party. | ||
| They don't want the issues that we care about. | ||
| They don't want the people that didn't go to the right schools, okay? | ||
| And I think you all know the type. | ||
| Well, a lot of those people are the people that voted, my colleagues that voted last January, To keep our current chair in office despite six years of nonstop failure. | ||
| And what we have now, one year later, we have, but last year it was six years of nonstop failure but raised an awful lot of money, largely on the Trump name. | ||
| Now we have seven years of nonstop failure and can't raise any money. | ||
| Because you cut them off. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| The exact thing that I said last year would happen. | ||
| We can't have the whole country watch the Republican National Committee give a vulgar hand gesture to our grassroots, who we desperately need if we're going to win another election. | ||
| And that's certainly what happened. | ||
| Ben Burquam, who do we have in the audience? | ||
| Who's with us today? | ||
| We've got grassroots from all over the place. | ||
| Tell me your name, where you're from, and why you're here. | ||
| Or biggest takeaway. | ||
| I'm Laurel Eimer. | ||
|

|
I'm from Colorado and I'm running to be the next Republican National Committee woman from the great state of Colorado. | |
| And I'm here because for Colorado, we need to keep Trump on the ballot. | ||
| That's one of our major issues. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And we also are overturning our open primary because we know that they're stealing data through that process. | |
| So we are grassroots on the ground in Colorado and we will take back this country. | ||
| Amen. | ||

Hello, I'm Teresa Anderson. | |

| I live in Summerlin. | ||

| Fantastic. | ||

My name is Michael Thompson. | |
| I'm the chairman down in southwest Florida in Lee County and I came here to really collaborate with some of the most brilliant minds at the grassroots level and to make Florida great again. | ||
| That's General Flynn territory, right? | ||

unidentified
|
Yes, absolutely. | |
| Dave Williams, chairman of the great state of Colorado. | ||
|
unidentified

We just endorsed President Trump with our party officially. | |
| He is the presumptive nominee and we need to get behind him immediately. | ||
| I'm here to help make America great again and restore national confidence in our party. | ||

Hi, I'm Bernadette Smith and I'm running to be Michigan's next National Committee woman. | |
| I didn't even know, too, that Tudor told me to tell you hello. | ||
| Tudor! | ||
| God bless Tudor Dixon. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm so excited to be running. | |
| I was just told by some of my opponent's friends, they said, well, let Bernadette just go ahead and pray. | ||
| Where did that get us? | ||
| When they told the pastors and the faith leaders to stay inside the four walls of their church. | ||
| It got us where we are today. | ||
| I think every believer and every pastor need to get out of their pews and run for office. | ||
| And that's why I'm here, running for office, and I'm expecting to be Michigan's next National Committee Woman. | ||
| I'm Hilario de Leon, the chairman of the Republican Party of Milwaukee County in Wisconsin, and the place where we're going to have the national convention this July, so we're looking forward to that. | ||
| I just want to say that this experience here was a very eye-opening and very educational experience. | ||
| Why was it eye-opening? | ||
| You're a pretty experienced guy, right? | ||
| You didn't just wander off the prairie. | ||
| Why was it eye-opening, and why did you learn things you had never learned before? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, as a Generation Z Republican, and as a chair, first-time chairman this year, I'm very disappointed that the RNC has not embraced the grassroots. | |
| After all, that's how our party was founded. | ||
| This movement that we're working on is right now. | ||
| Like George Washington and the Continental Army crossing the Delaware River. | ||
| We're all in different boats, but we're going to the same place. | ||
| Unfortunately, some people's boats only have one oar in the water, and they're going in circles, and we can't have that. | ||
| So, with the work that Turning Point is doing, and I want to say thank you to them for the work that they've done, and everything that they've showed, all our grassroots chairs that are here, because we're going to go back home to our states and our cities, And we're going to implement whatever plans that we can to help build that volunteer army that, again, is desperately needed to win in November. | ||
| Okay, we talk about winning. | ||
| Hang on a second. | ||
| We're in the last couple days of January. | ||
| Are we, as you see it right now, are we going to win Wisconsin? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, right now the Democrats are doing everything they can to mess with our maps with our new Supreme Court, unfortunately. | |
| But the people on the ground are dedicated volunteers that are going to put in their blood, sweat, and tears, and most importantly, their determination to save this republic. | ||
| So I will do everything in my power as the chairman of the Republican Party of Milwaukee County to ensure that we increase that voter percentage in our city so that we can take back the birthplace of the Republican Party. | ||
| Is that, I take that as a maybe? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's a yes, Steve. | |
| It's a yes, Steve. | ||
| Give me a yes, bro. | ||
| Is that a yes? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's a hell yes, Steve. | |
| Okay, good. | ||
| Got a couple more here, Steve. | ||
| Go ahead. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Come up here. | |
| I'm Westenheimer. | ||
| I'm a member of the Republican National Committee's Youth Advisory Council. | ||
| I'm here, honestly, to keep Ronna accountable. | ||
| You know, as a member of the council, she hasn't really utilized us. | ||
| She hasn't put us to work. | ||
| Whoa, whoa, whoa. | ||
| What do you mean by that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really? | |
| I tell you, we've only had two meetings since I was appointed last spring, and we have done absolutely nothing to engage Gen Z and further the Generation Z vote besides social media outreach. | ||
| That is the extent of it. | ||
| We need to be on college campuses. | ||
| We need to be partnering with Turning Point Action. | ||
| We need to be working with Turning Point USA on their college chapters. | ||
| But whenever I bring that up to the chairwoman, I just simply get scowled at and told, sit down. | ||
| No, we aren't going to work with them. | ||
| You're getting inside baseball right there, folks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I also, big thing, I personally mentioned Scott Pressler in several of these meetings to say we need him, we need his involvement, and we need him working with the RNC, and it's the same look I get from the chairwoman every single time of we will not touch it, we won't work with it. | |
| As the head of the Council to Do Youth, are you concerned about this Taylor Swift situation? | ||
| You think it's just media? | ||
| Are you concerned about it? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I have to clarify, I'm not the head, I'm not a co-chair of the council, but as a member, personally I think, for one, I'm not a Taylor Swift fan, I don't know about how many of you in this room agree with that, but I think the best argument I've heard is, you know, we've heard about her choice in men from all of her music, so how can we really, you know, bank on her choice for president when she has such terrible choice in men? | |
| So, frankly, Frankly, I'm not too worried about it. | ||
| I think with people like Charlie Kirk and, you know, Tyler Boyer and all these people here, my good friends from Colorado, my mom, Laurel, and Dave Williams, our party chair, I think we can really combat this messaging. | ||
| And Gen Z's Republican. | ||
| We're the most conservative generation since World War II. | ||
| Why do you say that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Just every metric you look at. | |
| I mean, we have a member of Kellyanne Conway's polling firm on the council. | ||
| And we talk a lot about the polling and the data and the interests of Gen Z. And we're the most conservative generation since World War II. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| But it's just like our republic. | ||
| We only have it if we can keep it. | ||
| So I'm calling on every one of you here in this room and every member of the RNC that is hearing me right now to hold the chairwoman accountable. | ||
| Put us to work. | ||
| We are here. | ||
| We're ready. | ||
| We're hungry. | ||
| We want to fight. | ||
| Quit putting us in a corner. | ||
| Quit pushing us back from where we want to be and let us do our jobs. | ||
| We can help you win. | ||
| You just gotta put us to work. | ||
| Fantastic. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Ben, hang on. | ||
| We're going to come back in a moment. | ||
| We got Boris. | ||
| We're trying to get Boris. | ||
| He's going to give us an update on the legal. | ||
| Of course, it's pretty grim in New York. | ||
| President Trump's going to get a judgment on him tomorrow. | ||
| Think about it for a second. | ||
| In the United States of America and the financial capital of the world, they're going to take a guy's business, fine him for absolutely... I mean, I did that for 20 years after Harvard. | ||
| I did what President Trump across the table, representing banks and commercial banks, making loans, putting in private equity, issuing junk bonds. | ||
| President Trump did absolutely everything that, by the book, right? | ||
| And the banks retained their own, you know, their own advisors. | ||
| There was never any question about it. | ||
| The banks didn't lose any money. | ||
| This is completely made up. | ||
| And if you see what they're trying to do with President Trump, you realize that they'll eventually do it to you, too. | ||
| I mean, President Trump, he's standing right in the middle of this, and it's outrageous. | ||
| It's quite shocking. | ||
| That trial Could have been a trial held in Moscow in the 1930s. | ||
| Right? | ||
| The show trials. | ||
| They knew they were going to take his money. | ||
| They want to bankrupt him. | ||
| They want to put him in bankruptcy. | ||

| Back to the grassroots on the strip in Vegas. | ||
| Joe Biden got a primary? | ||
| I don't think so, right? | ||
| Because the DNC said, hey, not happening. | ||
| And they said, well, he's an incumbent. | ||
| Donald Trump is an incumbent president of the United States. | ||
| They don't believe, first off, it's got to be a entry-level belief. | ||
| If you think Trump lost Show up to vote, fine, but you shouldn't have any position of power, right? | ||
| Because you don't know what they did and you won't believe it. | ||
| Only people that understand this, and it doesn't take a PhD, it doesn't take an MBA from Harvard, it doesn't take a degree from MIT, it takes common sense. | ||
| And so why did they allow an entire primary? | ||
| We spent three hundred, a hundred and twenty, think about that for a second, poor folks in Iowa. | ||
| I love Iowa. | ||
| A hundred and twenty million dollars on ads of, of Ron the Robot and, uh, and Nikki Haley and these folks. | ||
| A hundred twenty million dollars? | ||
| We're going to have to go do a sanity check. | ||
| Right? | ||
| $120 million. | ||
| Look at all the speakers. | ||
| You've had great speakers. | ||
| You know, you've had all these activists and people are working. | ||
| You've got all these different groups. | ||
| Everybody's trying to converge. | ||
| Everybody needs resources. | ||
| $350 million on a phony primary that did nothing but vanity projects for a couple of politicians and for the political consultants and operators like the Jeff Rose the world to make a ton of money. | ||
| That's the rigged system. | ||
| So they're going to be over here now and they got a credit line. | ||
| Here's where they get a credit line. | ||
| You cut them off. | ||
| The backbone of the Republican Party said, we're not going to give you a cent. | ||
| So they're broke. | ||
| And even when they're not broke, they don't spend the money anywhere. | ||
| They are responsible. | ||
| They are, because the campaign and the RNC, you know, merged with X amount of days ago after the convention. | ||
| They're responsible for the voter integrity. | ||
| They're responsible for it not being stolen. | ||
| That's their function. | ||
| For only the third time in the history of the republic is the fate and destiny of one man tied to the fate and destiny of this country. | ||
| General Washington, President Lincoln, and Trump. | ||
| What is going to happen to this country if Donald J. Trump does not have his hand on his family's Bible at noon on the 20th of January 2025? | ||
| What is going to happen to this nation? | ||
| It's over. | ||
| You know it. | ||
| I know it. | ||
| We don't need to go into detail. | ||
| You see it every day. | ||
| He's the only one that not just stood up for this country, he stood up for the citizens of this country, and particularly, he stood up for the working class in this country. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And that's why they hate him, and that's why the RNC hates him, because all they do is respond to the fat cat donors and to the Murdochs. | ||
| And that's why they must go. | ||
| That's why they must go. | ||
| Applause That's what a Warpath coffee will do for you before you take the stage. | ||
| take the stage. | ||
| Warpath that coffee. | ||
| Just kidding. | ||
| That speech came from the heart. | ||
| You can tell I don't use a lot of notes. | ||
| Let's go to Boris. | ||
| Boris, we're here in Vegas with all the grassroots, 100% in back of President Trump, trying to take down the apparatus of the RNC because they haven't had President Trump's back. | ||
| The second phase, they put up this phony primary, they spent 350 million dollars, Tricky Nicky's still going, shouldn't it raise another 150? | ||
| So it'll be half a billion dollars. | ||
| But the hardest part, you had the phony primary to hurt Trump, didn't hurt him, but wasted time and money. | ||
| Now you've got the real deal, which is the lawfare part, where they're gonna try to chop President Trump up in a million pieces. | ||
| Can you get us up to date on what's happening? | ||
| Steve, honored to be with you, honored to be with the posse, and here's the update. | ||
| The update is that President Trump is absolutely dominating all across the spectrum, and even these hoaxes, the civil hoaxes in New York, wherever it may be, these have absolutely no impact on our march to the White House, because President Trump's legal team will fight him, and then he will be victorious in the end. | ||
| Everybody's going crazy about all the liberals and the media. | ||
| And Nikki Haley celebrating that absolutely corrupt verdict in New York on that absolute sham of a trial where President Trump wasn't allowed to defend himself. | ||
| Well, you know what, bird brain, don't celebrate too much, because President Trump and his team will continue to win. | ||
| And as you look across the spectrum on all these hoaxes, they're falling apart like the rotten house of cards that they are. | ||
| Why are they falling apart? | ||
| Because the American people see through it. | ||
| And because even in this corrupt sham of a legal system we have left, President Trump and his lawyers are able to fight through it and able to win on each and every instance. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because there are still, thankfully, not a lot, but still, thankfully, some fair-minded judges out there who are doing the right thing. | ||
| So from what's going on in D.C. | ||
| There's a stay on immunity from what's going on in Georgia with that whole disaster for Fonny Willis and her lover. | ||
| What's going on in Florida with a strong judge there, Judge Cannon, to the fight that's on in the Manhattan VA case. | ||
| President Trump was represented by the best out there. | ||
| He continues to fight, continues to win. | ||
| Boris, before we let you go, have any update of when this judge is going to issue this ruling on President Trump's business empire? | ||
| Today? | ||
| Tomorrow? | ||
| The next day? | ||
| When? | ||
| The judge has said that it would likely be by the 31st. | ||
| That's obviously tomorrow. | ||
| But again, whatever that is, whatever that is, very important for the policy, always signal, not noise. | ||
| Keep in mind, the way the court system works, there's appeals on appeals on appeals. | ||
| President Trump will keep fighting until he wins on every single front, and that very much includes his coming victory in the non-existent primaries, because those are done, and his victory over crooked Joe Biden. | ||
| If you look at the polling, just polling released today in South Carolina, Boris, what's your social media? | ||
| 35. These vicious attacks against him are only driving his support up because the American people want to live in a country where we have a real system of justice and not this assault on the Constitution that the Democrats, but don't kid yourself, the RINOs and the Uniparty are undertaking and that assault will be defeated. | ||
| Boris, what's your social media? How do people follow you? | ||
| Steve, thanks so much. | ||

Hot on Twitter Boris coming in hot. | |
| Always. | ||
| The primary, this primary sucked in $350 million, still going to go be a half a billion dollars. | ||
| Were people in the RNC, some of the people in the National Committee, were they upset that this thing was even going to take place? | ||
| There were some people that were upset about it. | ||
| I understand the reasons that we want to go through and do the procedures that we do, but all the debates and all the money associated with that, it was just a waste. | ||
| And I do think it was in order to provide people the opportunity to trash Donald Trump. | ||
| I mean, that was the case very obviously with several people on stage. | ||
| Last week, I actually wrote the resolution that we put forward to say, how about as the RNC, because we see where things are going, we look at every poll, how about as the RNC, we declare that Donald Trump is the apparent nominee and lets us move into general election mode! | ||
| How about putting our blood, sweat, tears, time and treasure into the general election beating Joe Biden? | ||
| And there were a lot of people co-sponsoring that. | ||
| There are a lot of people ready to do that on the RNC. | ||
| But then the president made an announcement that he had decided He thought it would be more unifying to continue the normal way, so we did withdraw it. | ||
| But he is our nominee. | ||
| That is the horse that we are going to ride to victory in November. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| Here's the thing. | ||
| What he can do for this country. | ||
| I'm so tired of hearing Republicans, and I remember when I first ran for office four years ago, and they were trashing President Trump. | ||
| And I said in every speech, any Republican who cannot or will not defend this president's magnificent record in office, the problem is with that Republican, not the president. | ||
| Ben, what do you got for us? | ||
| Patty, great job. | ||
| Amazing, amazing people here, Steve. | ||

| All right. | ||
|

|
All right. | |
| Hello. | ||
| Hello. | ||
| Julianne Murray, state chair for Delaware. | ||
| And I am here because the grassroots are alive. | ||
| I mean, for those who don't know my history, I ran as governor as a first time candidate in 2020, then ran for AG in 22. | ||
| Lost by 12,000 votes in blue Delaware. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| While I was running for AG, I defeated vote-by-mail. | ||
| So we do not have vote-by-mail in Delaware in 2014. | ||
| Praise the Lord. | ||
| Praise the Lord. | ||
| God bless us. | ||
| How do we do that across the country? | ||
| Can we do that across the country? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It depends on state statutes and state constitutions. | |
| So in Delaware, our constitution was about state-specific absentee voting, and we were able to do it. | ||
| I told President Trump that, because he asked me, he said, can we win in Delaware? | ||
| I said, you beat Biden. | ||
| in 2020 on the machines. | ||
| You lost because of vote by mail. | ||
| There is no vote by mail in 24. | ||
| He said, why? | ||
| And I said, well, somebody sued. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| You know, so it was good. | ||
| I mean, but this is I mean, my point here to everybody is this is the grassroots. | ||
| You know, I came out of nowhere. | ||
| I'm a state chair. | ||
| I am. | ||
| I happily co-sponsored Patty's resolution, and we are here to fight. | ||
| We are going to deliver President Trump. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Hold it. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| I've been asking battleground states. | ||
| Are you telling me we have a chance to win Delaware? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
| All right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
| All right, real quick. | ||
| Steve Joe's home turf. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And I am pushing everybody in Trump's campaign that he has to come to Delaware because it's Joe Biden's home turf. | |
| I mean, well, I keep saying he's a man of ego. | ||
| We love that about him, so he needs to come there. | ||
| But we had to get petitions to get him on the ballot, and we got 1,776, can't make that up, in a week. | ||
| So, I mean, it's just, yes, we can deliver Delaware. | ||
| Hi, my name's Lydia Dominguez. | ||
| I'm a mom, and I used to be a Democrat. | ||
| I voted for Obama twice. | ||
| The veil has come off. | ||
| I voted for- Hold on, hang on, hang on. | ||
| Why did the veil come off? | ||
| What was it? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It was in 2013, the BLM movement started happening, the Trayvon Martin, all that, the rioting, the protesting, and the destruction of property. | |
| That made me turn around, and Trump was the first Republican president I ever voted for in 2016. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Are you happy with that vote? | ||
| I am, and I'm ready to vote for him a third time, so that got me activated. | ||
| Hold it. | ||
| For someone that voted for Obama twice, why are you happy with your votes for President Trump? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, because I grew up. | |
| I realized, you know what, our country is on the verge of something horrible. | ||
| I was a military member. | ||
| I saw what Obama was doing. | ||
| I saw what was happening in Syria. | ||
| I saw all the lines continuing to be crossed with just, oh, we're not going to get engaged. | ||
| We're not going to get engaged. | ||
| And then what did they do? | ||
| They had chemical warfare on the innocent people in Syria and Libya. | ||
| I wasn't for that. | ||
| I was not for that. | ||
| I started seeing the lies on TV. | ||
| I started seeing what was going on with the division with social justice. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| I got activated as a mom. | ||
| I did change in 2016, but I got activated in 2020 when I saw my kids were affected. | ||
| My sons were locked in their rooms, anchored to a computer, and that made me get off and get involved in politics in 2020. | ||
| That's the future of the country right there. | ||
| That's the new Republican party right there. | ||
| She also got pushed out of the military for not taking the vaccine. | ||
| You did not take the vax? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I did not take the vaccine. | |
| Let's hear it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're hardcore. | |
| I had almost a year left of my enlistment and I was pushed out. | ||
| And I was reprimanded and my first directly disobeyed an order of not taking the vaccine. | ||
| And I'm proud of it. | ||
| I actually framed it along with my justification to say I stand with my Christian values. | ||
| Amen. | ||
| We got to go to break. | ||
| Hope and change that. | ||
| Amen. | ||
| Amen. | ||
| That's the real hope and change. | ||
| Okay, guys, hang on for a second. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bound. | |
| We're here for the pre-Happy Hour. | ||
| You know, I keep saying the pre-happy hour. | ||
| It's 5 o'clock back east where the show starts. | ||
| It's only 2 o'clock here, so I guess we're pre-pre-happy hour. | ||
| Maybe we cancel those drink orders right now. | ||
| Patty, there's a report out in red state that Rana's spending has not changed any in the year. | ||
| We've got about a minute or two. | ||
| What's going to happen across the street? | ||
| Uh, Romney, is she gonna step down graciously and humbly and turn this over to people like yourself? | ||
| By the way, my phone's been blown up the whole time. | ||
| They want Patty to run to replace Ron. | ||
| Is that a good idea? | ||
| I make enough people mad enough as it is, Steve. | ||
| I don't know, I'm not privy to what's going to happen, but I know that our party cannot and will not recover until we get new leadership that gives our grassroots confidence. | ||
| in what we're doing. We don't have that leadership now. The propagate spending, the wasteful spending, the giving contracts to, you know, rich consultant friends so they can get richer, all that kind of stuff. We have no place for that, not in our party. It's the Democrats that are supposed to be corrupt, not our party. Seagal Chadha, who was on fire this morning with you, your wonderful Nevada committee woman, she's introduced a resolution that would require | ||
| the chairwoman to cut expenses significantly. Is that going to pass? Well, let me tell you, I'm actually one of eight people on the resolutions committee. | ||
| I'm going to fight like crazy for that. | ||
| If the Resolutions Committee decides to kill it, we're going to know who kills it and it's going to be talked about. | ||
| I am Patti Lyman, RNC National Committee Woman for Virginia on Facebook and Patti for Virginia, P-A-T-T-I-F-O-R-V-A dot com. | ||
| You can go to my website. | ||
| I am running for re-election this year. | ||
| Amen. | ||
| I have a bunch of people with the long knives that don't like conservatives and they don't want me here anymore. | ||
| Give it up for Patti. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| I'm happy to be here. | ||
| Ben Berquam, who do we have? | ||
| What warriors? | ||
| One thing I want to say first is we have to be real careful, though. | ||
| When we get rid of one person, we have to be ready for who's on the bench, who's coming behind them. | ||
| And you've got to be aware, the heir apparent for these rhinos is Jessica Patterson. | ||
| And if you know anything, I escaped California. | ||
| It's just as bad. | ||
| So you've got to be really careful who's on the bench, who's coming behind. | ||
| All right, I'm going to come over here. | ||
| Sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, my name is Brian Smith. | |
| I'm from the great state of Idaho. | ||
| And I am the Idaho National Committee man for the RNC and I'm here because I believe that God is not finished with America. | ||
| He has not given up on us and but he needs warriors. | ||
| He doesn't need fair-weathered fans. | ||
| He doesn't need politicians. | ||
| Are you another one of those Christian nationalists? | ||
| nationalists from out there in the American media. | ||
| Count me in. | ||
| Hashtag me too. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And so my point is, you come to an organization, a meeting like this, and you see you're not alone. | |
| There are a lot of warriors. | ||
| And it's great to rub shoulders with them. | ||
| I used to tell my five kids, and they were growing up, I'd say, you show me your friends, I'll show you your future. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| And around here, look at the friends we've got. | ||
| And so the future is bright. | ||
| That's why I'm here. | ||
| Love it. | ||
| Love it. | ||
| Sir? | ||
| I'm Corey Steinmetz, national committee man from Wyoming. | ||
| And one of the reasons we're here is we brought resolutions from several of our counties in the state asking Ronald McDaniel to resign. | ||
| And, you know, our grassroots are tired of the inaction. | ||
| They're tired of the promises and the empty words. | ||
| They want action. | ||
| And so that's what we're here to deliver. | ||
| I'm glad to be here and be with all of these great patriots. | ||
| Glad to be with Mike Lindell. | ||
| We appreciate everything he's doing. | ||
| So just thank you, Steve, for having us on. | ||
| Love it, love it, love it. | ||
| Alright, over here. | ||

I also work for Team Trump. | |
| I think you're a troublemaker too, I'm just throwing that out there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, good trouble. | |
| And I want to give a shout out to my children's advocate because there is a group of hardcore patriots here in Nevada, in Clark County, and we are regrouping. | ||
| We are standing for Trump because at the end of the day, they're trying to sexualize our children. | ||
| There's an aggressive agenda. | ||
| We rank second worst in the country. | ||
| And we know that President Trump is going to stand for parental rights. | ||
| On day one, he promised an executive order that would stop the child mutilation of the gender mutilation of children. | ||
| So I want to give a shout out to Moms for Liberty. | ||
| We just launched here a few months ago, and we are inviting all parents to join in. | ||
| It's supposed to be nonpartisan, but apparently common sense seems to be partisan towards Republicans. | ||
| I'm sorry to say, but here we are supporting the Republican Party. | ||
| Fantastic. | ||

| I am the chair of the Northern Nevada Moms Coalition, part of Turning Point Action. | ||
| What a great event. | ||
| Beautiful to see you in action, Steve and Mike. | ||
| What an event. | ||
| And we are fired up about Trump. | ||
| We saw Trump Jr. | ||
| here earlier. | ||
| Fabulous. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| Okay, hang on Ben for a second. | ||
| I'm going to come back in the next hour. | ||
| I'm going to actually take over Ben's job and I'm going to show Ben how it's done. | ||

We'll see. | |
| We'll see. | ||
| Mike Lindell. | ||
| We're 24 hours away, I think, from President Trump getting this judgment by the judge in New York that's trying to bankrupt him. | ||
| We know they've been trying to bankrupt you for about six months. | ||
| The banks, Big Box, Walmart, Fox News, the Murdoch's. | ||
| Did I tell you that the Murdoch's is foreign ownership of Fox? | ||
| What do you do to combat it? | ||
| We've got a couple of minutes. | ||
| I want this audience to get all the specials that the Murdochs are taking away from the folks at Fox. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| No middleman. | ||
| Right to the War Room posse. | ||
| And there was big news. | ||
| It was yesterday, I believe. | ||
| The last of the flannel sheets. | ||
| Here they are. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Get them. | |
| They're very limited, but all the sizes and colors are in right now. | ||
| This was the War Room special. | ||
| As low as $29.98. | ||
| Do you sell silk or satin sheets? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, these are ridged in flannel. | |
| They are. | ||
| And free shipping on your entire order, PromoCode War Room. | ||
| And take advantage of that free shipping because everyone's been taking advantage of that. | ||
| The blankets, the blankets, that was the commercial we were going to do on Fox. | ||
| Every kind of blanket known to man. | ||
| And we designed the best blankets in the world. | ||
| Those are on sale. | ||
| And then we have the MyPillow 2.0, $29.98, Queens size. | ||
| We've got to sell 100 million pillows. | ||
| He's at 83 million. | ||
| MyPillow.com, PromoCode War Room. | ||
| Last question before we go. | ||
| Everybody in the audience asks me all the time, how close are we to mail-in ballots, I mean paper ballots, same-day voting, hand-counted? | ||
| We are winning, everybody. | ||
| We have upwards of 200 counties committed for the 2024 election. | ||
| I would say over the next couple months when we have all, we're going to approach every county at the same time with the plan. | ||
| And then you can see that at Lyndaleplan.com and check it out. | ||
| I would say if we can get half this country machine free by the election, we'll easily, we'll easily, the president will complete it. | ||
| The president will If there's any guy that can do it, it's Mike Lindell. | ||
| He's put his heart and soul in this. | ||
| Everything he's put in, tens of millions of dollars, and they're still trying to bankrupt you. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| We have to secure our election platform. | ||
| Remember, that's when I ran for RNC chair, that's what Ronna didn't do. | ||
| That's what she hasn't promoted. | ||
| She says she blames everything on everything else, but she didn't take care of her platforms. | ||
| Exactly, and she didn't change the spending either. | ||
| Okay, stick around. | ||
| Alright! | ||
| Vox Populi! | ||
| Vox Deus! |
