This is a branding problem. | |
| It's a branding problem because you say to people, how are you doing? | ||
| Are you doing better than you were four years ago? | ||
| Yeah, yeah, I'm doing really well. | ||
| How's the economy? | ||
| The economy sucks. | ||
| And you know, just the facts, to get the facts out there, beyond the jobs and the wage growth is happening, inflation is softening, manufacturing is up, consumer confidence is up, the unemployment rate is at an all-time low, our GDP growth compared to the rest of the world, we were just talking about the rest of the world is falling apart, we're going up, so it's not rational. | ||
| I think what's happening is when you say to people, how's the economy? | ||
| They take that as a, like, how are things? | ||
| You know, I see all these illegal immigrants on the street. | ||
| Crime is up. | ||
| I don't feel good. | ||
| If you say this to me, how are you doing? | ||
| I'm doing well. | ||
| How are you feeling? | ||
| I'm not feeling so well. | ||
| And I think economy has become this weird substitute for just the ether out there. | ||
| Because the numbers are the numbers. | ||
| And the other thing is, people say, I am doing better. | ||
| So the messaging has to be not about the economy, it has to be about you. | ||
| They have to take it to the voter. | ||
| And I think, you know, you've done this your entire life. | ||
| The simple question, are you better off than you were four years ago? | ||
| You have to just ask the voter, not make it about statistics and the economy. | ||
| How are you doing? | ||
| We hate the economy so much. | ||
| The Democrat operatives have told the guys in the House, never mention Bidenomics. | ||
| Do not use that phrase, because people will spit on the floor. | ||
| You saw the buried lead there. | ||
| They said, hey, why don't they love us for the Reducing Inflation Act? | ||
| Why don't they love us for the infrastructure? | ||
| We basically took five trillion additional dollars, caned it, and jammed it into the system, and they still don't love us. | ||
| Brother, give me your assessment. | ||
| Well, my assessment is those snippets, they got a little schizophrenia going over there. | ||
| Morning Joe and Mika said the quiet part out loud, my kids are getting crushed. | ||
| They can't buy houses, they can't buy food, they can't do nothing. | ||
| And as Ronnie Reagan said, there's a big pile of stuff all over the place here. | ||
| And then Donnie Deutsch, the marketing guru, has got to come in and says, well, if there's a big pile of you-know-what here, there must be a pony somewhere. | ||
| The question is, are you better off? | ||
| Are you better off now than you were? | ||
| And Deutsche is saying yes, and everybody else is saying no. | ||
| And the data, you just covered a lot of our data points, but CNN had a poll out on nostalgia for the Trump economy. | ||
| And that's spot on. | ||
| He had peace and prosperity. | ||
| I think it's 60, 65, 70 percent negative now on the national economy. | ||
| People say their own personal lives in states are a little bit better. | ||
| But when it comes to federal policy in the states that matter, the polling's upside down because the federal government's the one with the debt. | ||
| The inflation, right? | ||
| The morning shows were warning the White House and Biden six months ago. | ||
| Inflation is the issue, right? | ||
| The debt is awful. | ||
| All these other things are awful, but people don't understand those fully. | ||
| Well, Steve, one of the things that's really troubling about these numbers is the fact that it's not native-born Americans who are getting hired today. | ||
| In fact, they've been losing jobs. | ||
| And so all of the net job growth that we have seen literally since the initial government shutdowns in 2020 have all gone to foreign-born workers. | ||
| That's particularly troubling for a couple of reasons, not the least of which is that as Biden lets a flood of illegal immigrants across the border, Those illegal aliens oftentimes then get to work, except that they don't actually, I should say, the Biden administration doesn't actually publish how many of those foreign-born workers today with jobs are illegal. | ||
| In other words, we have absolutely no idea what percentage, I should say, of these jobs numbers are simply Biden's influx of illegals coming into this country and taking jobs from Americans. | ||
| You know, we saw in the headlines just a couple of weeks ago that Tyson Foods was literally firing a bunch of Americans so that they could hire foreigners, except that that's just a recent development. | ||
| This trend has been going on for four years. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, I think one of the biggest challenges that those of us who would prefer not to have a second Trump administration have is that the first administration happened. | |
| It wasn't great, but it didn't end in authoritarian rule, permanent authoritarian rule in the United States. | ||
| You know, not everyone who worked in the first Trump administration was a MAGA authoritarian. | ||
| There are plenty of normie Republicans. | ||
| There are plenty of generals that Trump appointed just so he thinks that Trump's or that generals are macho. | ||
| Second term will not look like that. | ||
| time around Trump didn't think he was going to win. | ||
| None of the Republican institutions, places like the Heritage Foundation, thought that he was going to win. | ||
| So they didn't come up with lists of people that he could hire. | ||
| Second time around, they are doing that work. | ||
| First time around, Trump didn't know anyone in Washington, so he didn't know who to hire. | ||
| Now he knows who his loyalists are. | ||
| That's who he's going to appoint, that's who he's going to put on the bench. | ||
| So the second term, I mean, you're going to be looking at a much more effective authoritarian machine than you had in the first term. | ||
| Ed EV and Ed, getting off of natural gas for your stove and your heater at home, and where's that going to leave us, Dave Walsh? | ||
| Okay, over the next 10 years, the collective FERC data collected from all the utilities is we're only going to grow kilowatt-hour per year production by 5.5% across 10 years, cumulatively. | ||
| The average need for GDP growth and population growth would be 18%, 15 to 18% in electricity creation needed in that 10-year period. | ||
| With EVs and home heating transitioning supposedly to electric, The capacity of electricity would need to go up by about 80% over a 10-year period to meet these EV goals and home heating goals. | ||
| We're way, way behind what we need to be in status quo with GDP growth. | ||
| Hold it. | ||
| Give me that number again. | ||
| I've got to hear it. | ||
| It warms the cockles of my heart. | ||
| Give it to me again. | ||
| Because of the mass adoption in the next 10 years across the country of only, of only solar and wind and battery storage in accordance with government pressure. | ||
| We're only adding about 5.2% to kilowatt-hour growth across 10 whole years. | ||
| We should be adding 18% before any of this adoption of EVs, mass adoption of EVs, which would take us to needing about 80% more electricity generation capacity than we now have. | ||
| I mean, these policies don't tie together. | ||
| They don't tie together at all. | ||
| I mean, you know better than anybody that Trump's answering the question for his voters, and he's telling them the answer is no. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's telling them about crime. | |
| Crime numbers are down, too. | ||
| I mean, we could have started with the crime numbers. | ||
| It's the same story. | ||
| Crime is down. | ||
| People are afraid to have a layover in an American city. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, which is why I keep saying the only path for the Democrats, this is not a logical thing. | |
| You have to say, well, however you're feeling now, this is how dark. | ||
| We'll get. | ||
| I don't know where else to go. | ||
| As a marketer, as an advertiser, you can't... It's not registered. | ||
| I talk to people. | ||
| I talk to educated, affluent people. | ||
| And I'll give them the facts. | ||
| And I'll give them... Yeah, but... Yeah, but... Yeah, but Biden sucks. | ||
| What do you mean he sucks? | ||
| He sucks, he's old. | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| Yeah, he's old, so is Trump. | ||
| I don't know, he just sucks. | ||
| There's this weird lack of common sense, this weird lack of rational thinking, and Trump just plays on that. | ||
| When Trump speaks, it's either unintelligible or it's racist. | ||
| I mean, that's just the bottom line. | ||
| Those are your two options. | ||
| This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
|
unidentified
|
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. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The people have had a belly full of it. | |
| I know you don't like hearing that. | ||
| I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
| And where do people like that go to share the big line? | ||
|

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

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

War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Babb. | |
| It's Saturday, 6 April in the year of our Lord 2024. | ||
| Welcome to The Saturday Show. | ||
| This is fully engaged in battle on like 30 fronts. | ||
| And this is not simply about winning in November. | ||
| It's about then taking control of the country and actually governing and saving this republic from its just total destruction. | ||
| Because right now you have an irrational elite in this country that is running this nation as we've known it, this constitutional republic, off a cliff on every aspect, whether it's the financial, economic, the invasion on the southern border, basically the replacement of working class minorities, African-Americans and Hispanic citizens, because it's all about replacing citizens with newcomers. | ||
| And, of course, geopolitically, as now the war in Gaza spins out of control, with Biden trying to have regime change, a color revolution, supporting a color revolution in Israel. | ||
| And Ukraine, another continued disaster in Ukraine. | ||
| Of course, the people that represent the people in this audience, the House members, are going to come back, and their number one priority is a $60 billion supplemental for the oligarchs in Ukraine. | ||
| We're going to get to all that. | ||
| I want to go back for those last night that didn't take the fourth hour, the six o'clock show. | ||
| It was really one of our best shows, and really incredible, because I had E.J. | ||
| and Tony, Dave Brat, both doctorates in economics and or industrial policy, and of course the great Dave Walsh, and we just deconstructed all the happy talk, and that's where we tied it back in that great cold open by our production team here and in Denver. | ||
| At Real America's Voice, we tied it in to Tony Deutsch, who is so nervous because he thinks he's going to be deported, right? | ||
| He's so nervous. | ||
| Every day he says, I'm in fear. | ||
| I'm in the fetal position. | ||
| You know, I cringe with fear because these MAGA forces are coming back. | ||
| We deconstructed all the happy talk about the numbers. | ||
| They sit there and they continue to pound the managerial class or the credential class. | ||
| Because that's what their party is, the credential class. | ||
| It's just hammering how good, how the statistics are so great, and they're so fantastic, and they're so amazing, and this is so great. | ||
| And then all of them around, when they go around the horn and talk about their kids, they say, hey, the economy sucks. | ||
| Stephanie Rule, son, economy sucks. | ||
| Joe Scarborough, his son, can't pay the rent. | ||
| Economy sucks. | ||
| Donnie Deutch, he says, every time I talk to people, they go, yeah, but remember, he ain't talking to MAGA. | ||
| He's not coming out to the countryside or to the hamlets or villages or in the cities where the deplorables are. | ||
| The MAGA, he's not asking people that support Trump what they think. | ||
| He's asking progressive liberal Democrats what they think, because that's what he hangs out with. | ||
| And they're the ones going, yeah, yeah, yeah, I hear you, but it sucks. | ||
| The economy sucks. | ||
| The country sucks. | ||
| Something's deeply wrong. | ||
| This is why you see why every, we could put up, we could have 10 hour shows going through the economy. | ||
| Article up today, I've got it up on Getter just too, and this is from a Federal Reserve report. | ||
| This is not even the Wall Street Journal reporting this yet. | ||
| People are kind of doing summaries of it. | ||
| But this is not from Gateway Pundit, or it's not Kane at Citizens Free Press, although I think Kane is linked to this. | ||
| A third, one-third of American citizens, one-third of American citizens between 18 and 24, those critical years when you either have gotten out of high school and get into it or you're going to college but then you get into your first job, one-third don't have any income, have no job and no income. | ||
| And the Federal Reserve report says, hey, these people are never going to be able to buy, on their current trajectory, they're never going to be able to buy a house, they're never going to be able to retire. | ||
| They're just barely, they're barely hanging on. | ||
| And of course, last night we broke through, E.J. | ||
| Antoni says in this report, all the jobs went to foreign-born people. | ||
| And believe me, almost 100% of that is from illegal alien invaders that have come through. | ||
| That was their whole plan from the beginning, to crush wages. | ||
| Powell said that. | ||
| That was their plan. | ||
| Yellen has said that. | ||
| A hundred percent, and what is no full-time jobs. | ||
| Zero Hedge has a great piece about it, but the guys last night did a fantastic job. | ||
| No full-time jobs, all part-time jobs. | ||
| Well, if you're the credentialed class, or if you're the elites in this country, the 1% or the top 5%, times have never been better. | ||
| We got that. | ||
| We understand that, because the system's totally rigged. | ||
| It's totally rigged. | ||
| Everybody else, including the middle class, is now going to be a Russian serf. | ||
| Wall Street Journal's got this amazing piece about these 211 numbers that people making, you know, $75,000, $80,000, $100,000, $125,000, they're calling and saying, hey, look, can you give me some help here? | ||
| I've got to find some assistance. | ||
| I can't make ends meet. | ||
| It's a complete fault, and what's happened is that this, if you took out the federal spending, the $7 trillion, you backed out that $2 trillion deficit, that Keynesian turbocharge, the economy's like at negative, the economy's like at negative 3 to 5% growth as Dave Bratz calculated. | ||
| The only thing's going on, this scam, it could only go on for so long. | ||
| A trillion dollars every hundred days can only go on so long. | ||
| Philip Patrick's going to join us. | ||
| Gold is at $23.49. | ||
| I'm not here to give you financial advice, pick stocks, or tell you what to short. | ||
| Although, if you look at our macro during the pandemic, you could tell, hey, maybe I ought to be on the other side of these trades. | ||
| Gold's at $23.49. | ||
| Why is that? | ||
| Because people are looking for a hedge on this madness. | ||
| And all they're talking, they're attacking Trump relentlessly, is that he brings anarchy and chaos. | ||
| Well, hey, like the piece said in CNN, people yearn for the nostalgia of the Trump years. | ||
| Stability and order. | ||
| Peace and prosperity. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Back in the Worm in a moment. | |
| 2020, are you happy with the state of America? | ||
| Am I happy with the state of America right now? | ||
| Well, that answer is no. | ||
| Do I believe we're going to get better? | ||
| I believe in that. | ||
| I'm an optimistic guy, and I believe we can get better. | ||
| The endorsement that I made years ago with Biden was what I thought was the best decision for me at that time. | ||
| And I thought back then, when we talk about, hey, you know, I'm in this position. | ||
| Where I have some influence and it's my job then, I felt like that then, it's my job now to exercise my influence and share with, this is who I'm going to endorse. | ||
| Am I going to do that again this year? | ||
| That answer's no. | ||
| When you lose the rock, that's the rock right there saying, hey, I made a mistake. | ||
| I endorsed the guy back then, I thought it was the best choice of time. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| A rock, we're actually optimists too. | ||
| We can see the sunlit uplands ahead, but it's just not going to get better. | ||
| This is the key point. | ||
| It's just not going to get better. | ||
| In fact, it's going to continue on exactly like it is unless you stop it. | ||
| And stop it is not you there, the mealy mouth. | ||
| No, dude, you didn't do your homework at the time. | ||
| You used your influence and it was nothing but happy talk. | ||
| You want to be serious? | ||
| You want to be president of the United States? | ||
| Rock's going to be president. | ||
| No labels went out to Rock. | ||
| Let's get to Rock. | ||
| Let's get to Rock, right? | ||
| Let's get to Rock. | ||
| He's a superhero. | ||
| It's just not going to get better, dude. | ||
| You have to make it better. | ||
| And the way you make it better is you stop what's going on today and then you turn it around. | ||
| This is a turnaround. | ||
| And stopping what's going on today ain't easy. | ||
| But it's doable. | ||
| It takes a lot of focused work of the people in this audience. | ||
| This is who's saving the country. | ||
| Who has President Trump's back? | ||
| We're ten days away or nine days away. | ||
| That trial's going. | ||
| They're rolling. | ||
| April 15th. | ||
| They're rolling. | ||
| And you ought to see, they're doing shows on MSNBC. | ||
| They're cackling. | ||
| They're happy. | ||
| If they find him guilty, that's a benefit. | ||
| They want to take six to eight weeks to smear him in front of the American people. | ||
| To have a porn star and a Playboy bunny. | ||
| How incomprehensible is that? | ||
| Take the stand for a week. | ||
| Smear President Trump. | ||
| Think of the pressure on this guy. | ||
| Leticia James said, yes, oh, no, no, the $175 million bond's not good enough. | ||
| We've got to review that. | ||
| We're going to investigate the business of the guy that put up the subprime auto lender. | ||
| It's full-out war. | ||
| It's full-out war against you. | ||
| 25, we saw, and we're going to cut it somehow, or, you know, Moe and Grace can somehow, let's get last night's episode, everybody over the weekend, homework assignment. | ||
| Watch the one hour and then we finish with Harnwell. | ||
| Great on Ukraine. | ||
| Ben's going to join us here in a minute because Ukraine's up. | ||
| Of course, you know, with the financial crisis all over, we have to make a priority. | ||
| We've got to be a priority to come back. | ||
| And talk about $60 billion, because the arms industry wants it. | ||
| The Southern Congressmen of my beloved South are all in the pocket of the arms industry. | ||
| So naturally, we have to go back. | ||
| And look, I love high-paying, value-added jobs, but I would love to be able to beat our swords into plowshares. | ||
| And we could, and I'm a hawk, because you use the economic part of it and use it smart. | ||
| You saw Rickards yesterday. | ||
| We could be very smart about doing this. | ||
| And what you do is you focus on Beijing, the head of the crime syndicate, and hey, guess what? | ||
| A lot of things start, good things start to happen. | ||
| The mullahs in Persia aren't talking so big. | ||
| The KGB in Moscow is not running around flexing every second. | ||
| But no, they're not going to do that because they're in business with them. | ||
| This entire thing's rigged, and it's rigged not just against our beloved country, it's rigged against American citizens. | ||
| It's rigged against you, and people are waking up. | ||
| That's the panic they've got. | ||
| That's the panic they've got. | ||
| Robert F. Kennedy's taking all the votes. | ||
| Why do you think he's not on no labels? | ||
| No Labels is just a scam by the guy at Disney and others that set it up. | ||
| It's a total scam to defeat Trump, to take Trump voters away. | ||
| When they couldn't find somebody that could actually take Trump voters, they shut it down. | ||
| Why wouldn't they take Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.? | ||
| Why wouldn't they take him? | ||
| He's a legitimate third-party candidate. | ||
| He's polling at 8%. | ||
| Why wouldn't he be natural? | ||
| Versus Joe Manchin. | ||
| Joe Manchin is zero point... Is the nation yearning for Joe Manchin? | ||
| Does a nation yearn for Larry Hogan? | ||
| Just think about this. | ||
| Ridonculous. | ||
| It's just another scam to defeat Trump. | ||
| Everything's to defeat Trump. | ||
| Why is that? | ||
| Because Trump represents you, and Trump represents the little guy, the forgotten man. | ||
| From last night, E.J. | ||
| J. Antony says, hey, the labor participation, 25% of men in this country, 25%, a quarter of men in this country have punched out. | ||
| Have punched out. | ||
| You don't think that brings societal pathologies? | ||
| You have men, and I'm not talking guys in their 80s, we're saying, I think the number's 18 to like 44, have punched out. | ||
| One third of your young people. | ||
| That decade in your 20s is so freaking important. | ||
| Look back at your own life. | ||
| This is why up until we had Biden, right? | ||
| I always recommended young people go in the military. | ||
| It's formative. | ||
| It's fantastic. | ||
| It's great formation. | ||
| Now, I would not recommend Mo go to West Point. | ||
| I wouldn't. | ||
| That's very hard for me to say, but I would not. | ||
| And she went during Obama. | ||
| She went during Obama and it's the same, but it because it's a formative period of your life. | ||
| One third of the people have no income, no job, nothing. | ||
| 25% of men are not in the workforce. | ||
| Everything you look at is, is to American citizens, the world's life sucks. | ||
| Why is that? | ||
| Why are you under assault from your traditional family? | ||
| Everywhere you look, it's not just worse, it's actively worse, and they're coming after you. | ||
| Why is that? | ||
| American citizens should be at the top of the heap. | ||
| We look at the cap table, right? | ||
| You're the preferred shareholder. | ||
| You don't own the common. | ||
| Right now, you don't own anything. | ||
| You're out of the deal. | ||
| That's why they hate Trump. | ||
| They hate Trump with a burning hatred. | ||
| You know why? | ||
| He's the only person Of any substance and status in this nation that stepped forward and said, this is not right. | ||
| I'm going to run for president and I'm going to turn things around. | ||
| Look what he did in his first term. | ||
| Was it perfect? | ||
| No, it was not perfect. | ||
| Was it damn good? | ||
| You would, you bet your bottom dollar it was because it changed attitudes. | ||
| It changed perspectives. | ||
| This is why he's got young men, African-American men, Hispanic. | ||
| That's where they're freaking out. | ||
| They can't put their coalition together. | ||
| They know that. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Trump was make America great again, and as a subset of that, make America's citizens great again. | ||
| In a company, you would be the preferred shareholders. | ||
| You're at the top. | ||
| That's why I say not in the room, not in the deal. | ||
| Trump put you in the room at the head of the table as a preferred shareholder. | ||
| That you're calling the shots. | ||
| No, maybe we shouldn't have an invasion on the southern border. | ||
| Maybe we should limit immigration overall until all American citizens get good, high-paying jobs. | ||
| How about that? | ||
| Janet Yellen yesterday sounded like a bizarre grandmother. | ||
| You know, I used to say, when people gave us cheap stuff, it's a goody, let's do it more. | ||
| She actually said that. | ||
| She's got early whatever setting in. | ||
| Now they're all, oh, China's excess capacity. | ||
| Where'd you hear that from? | ||
| Yeah, well, Stephen K. Bannon, years ago at Breitbart, hammering that every day. | ||
| The overcapacity. | ||
| This is what Lighthizer and Peter Navarro, yeah, the same Peter Navarro that's in prison, cut a deal with the Chinese in May of 2019 that took care of all that. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because Donald Trump pressed them up against the bulkhead and forced them to come to the table. | ||
| Now they walked away. | ||
| And right after that, in May 2019, that was May 19, they walked away from that deal that we're taking care of over capacity. | ||
| We're taking care of all of our job shifting over there. | ||
| After a year and a half, they walked away. | ||
| And lo and behold, in the summer of 2019, in the fall of 2019, a thing called COVID started popping up around Wuhan at the military games. | ||
| Hello. | ||
| What a coincidence. | ||
| That's just an amazing coincidence, isn't it? | ||
| I don't believe in coincidences. | ||
| It was Trump that did all this. | ||
| And he's not perfect. | ||
| In fact, his greatness is because of his imperfection. | ||
| He's risen above his own imperfections personally as a leader. | ||
| That's a historical figure. | ||
| No person's been perfect on this earth. | ||
| And you look at them now, I gotta tell ya, the viciousness they're coming after Trump because they understand in back of Trump is you. | ||
| And the last thing they want, their con, their scam, their control, all ceases when you grab power. | ||
| And they know it. | ||
| And then comes the accountability. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ooh. | |
| Like over the Justice Department. | ||
| Putting a grandmother, remember yesterday? | ||
| A grandmother? | ||
| Rebecca Lovren's? | ||
| Putting a grandmother who prayed in the Capitol, who drove from Colorado Springs for 48 hours and stopped at some little motel by the roadside in St. | ||
| Louis, a mother who had raised a couple of boys to be college baseball players and girls, kind of the all-American story, to put her in a federal prison for three years? | ||
| What is the mentality of that? | ||
| That is what we have to go in and purge from the imperial capital. | ||
| And the only people that can purge it are you. | ||
| Trump can't do that. | ||
| He can't do everything. | ||
| There's too much burden on his shoulders right now. | ||
| Did I happen to mention he's going to be in a court with Letitia James and Adams controlling the deal a week from Monday? | ||
| They've already stripped and taken his business. | ||
| Now, it's totally illegal. | ||
| It'll be all reversed, but he had to put a $175 million bond up, and they're going after the guy that backed the bond. | ||
| They want him in prison. | ||
| They want him broke. | ||
| Look at Peter Navarro. | ||
| There's not a better man in this country than Dr. Peter Navarro. | ||
| There's not someone that's given more to their country than Dr. Peter Navarro. | ||
| And he's sitting in a federal prison right now. | ||
| For doing what? | ||
| For helping shut down the invasion of the southern border with terrorists in Mexico? | ||
| With bracing up the Chinese Communist Party? | ||
| For that? | ||
| For that gift? | ||
| His work for this republic? | ||
| He's in a federal prison? | ||
| There's nothing these people won't do to stop you, to stop this movement. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| You're unstoppable if you don't quit. | ||
| short break. | ||
| And as I said, the trend line of the data is right in a good way, but the feeling is not wrong either. | ||
| And the feeling is the reality in so many ways. | ||
| And I think Cady, you know, raised the issue. | ||
| There's that piece in the journal today. | ||
| It talks about food prices, talks about going to a restaurant. | ||
| You know, you talk about buying a home. | ||
| So many things do cost so much more than they did before. | ||
| And that's something that is not going to get resolved. | ||
| Before November. | ||
| It just isn't. | ||
| You get the trend line in the right direction before November, but you're not going to have prices reverse, if you will, materially reverse in a way, or wages go up so much that it somehow upends this conundrum of where we have been when it comes to pricing. | ||
| That is Andrew Ross Sorkin. | ||
| Now, he is the lead kind of columnist and writer for the business section of the New York Times. | ||
| Has a big conference he puts on. | ||
| He's on CNBC every couple of mornings, and then they put him on Politico. | ||
| It's not going to get reversed. | ||
| You're hearing it from him. | ||
| You're not hearing from Steve Bannon in a war room. | ||
| That's not E.J. | ||
| Antoni. | ||
| Yeah, we've been saying that. | ||
| We've been saying it for you. | ||
| It's not going to get reversed. | ||
| He just gave them the bad news. | ||
| You should have seen their faces after all that yelling and screaming, and my kids tell me it sucks, and Donny George, everybody I talk to, it sucks. | ||
| But Andrew R. Sorkin, the trend, and remember when he says wages are not going to get higher, their plan is not to have wages higher, hence the invasion on the southern border. | ||
| They want to drive wages down, and they want to drive wages down specifically to these ornery American citizens. | ||
| Who may say, hey, how about a wage, how about a wage increase? | ||
| How about a little something for the effort? | ||
| Remember Caddyshack? | ||
| Hey, a little something for the effort. | ||
| Asking the Dalai Lama? | ||
| Well, you're going to get total enlightenment at the moment you die. | ||
| Well, be that as it may, that's a spiritual issue. | ||
| In the grubby area of materiality, people would like to have like a living wage, like to have a wage increase. | ||
| The working class here, in the working poor, in the lower middle class, in the middle class, you understand? | ||
| You're all inextricably linked. | ||
| You're all inextricably linked. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| The war is against you! | ||
| And it couldn't be more obvious. | ||
| They don't hide what they're doing. | ||
| And the reason they don't hide what they're doing, they've never been called on the carpet and then have people say, no, you're a liar. | ||
| You're wrong. | ||
| You're doing this to destroy this country and destroy particularly the citizens of this country. | ||
| This is why they hate Trump. | ||
| Trump gave them blunt force trauma. | ||
| The Guardian today has two. | ||
| The lead story is about, you know, we cover as much as we can and Real America's Voice does it all on right-side broadcast. | ||
| We stream all the, you know, all the rallies. | ||
| And I keep, reporters call me and say, just watch the rallies and listen to the rallies. | ||
| His policy, all his policy is there. | ||
| Trump's not hiding anything. | ||
| He's a blunt force instrument. | ||
| He's an armor-piercing shell. | ||
| And now today, finally, the Guardian, she's like psychotic. | ||
| His thing is a madman's ravings. | ||
| This is a news article. | ||
| This is not an opinion piece. | ||
| Their lead story this morning is on this. | ||
| Listen to his rallies. | ||
| Policies he's talking about are, he's a psycho. | ||
| It's demented. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| It's dangerous. | ||
| It's a news article, not some opinion piece. | ||
| Now, later they have an opinion piece, I think it's from Margaret Sullivan, who is the Guardian's columnist here in the United States. | ||
| She actually makes the case that because Trump's polls are doing so well, and particularly with African-American men, Hispanic families, that Asians, that in MAGA, he's rising, that he's doing so well and Biden is behind at this time, which they never figured. | ||
| The problem is the media is not doing enough job of tearing Trump apart. | ||
| I'm not making this up. | ||
| They have one of the most vicious articles about our rallies and just say Trump is a sociopath. | ||
| Right? | ||
| A pathological liar and a sociopath. | ||
| And then they have a piece that the journalists of the world have to come together and do more to tear down Trump. | ||
| What did the fangirl Katie Fang? | ||
| Can I get that clip and let me see if I can play that again if that's ready? | ||
| It's only like six seconds. | ||
| She's a new sit-in host, right, on MSNBC, right? | ||
| This is a host, not some contributor blurt out something. | ||
| This is a host of MSNBC. | ||
| Just listen to her. | ||

When Trump speaks, it's either unintelligible or it's racist. | |
| I mean, that's just the bottom line. | ||
| The bottom line, this is their thought. | ||
| It's either unintelligible or it's racist, coming from the genius Katie Fang. | ||
| She's their new attack dog, by the way. | ||
| Unintelligible or racist. | ||
| On adding all this, the way the system works is their priorities are not your priorities. | ||
| Your priorities is to make sure that you're a good householder, that your family's taken care of, that you've got a job that's rewarding and economically beneficial. | ||
| Uh, that your families get kids are getting a good education, uh, that if your wife, if she does, or your husband of your, your two income family, that you have enough time with the family. | ||
| You know, it's to be a good householder and take things forward that way and always look down range for what's best for the country. | ||
| That is what the American working class and middle class have been since the founding of the Republic. | ||
| Imperfect people. | ||
| But doing the best they can and just want to be left alone. | ||
| Just leave me alone. | ||
| I can make it in this world, do my own efforts, my own empowerment. | ||
| We can do this. | ||
| We got this. | ||
| You know the the white picket fence and the dream and that dream was from guys who are fighting in trenches over in in World War II trying to do the breakout out of Normandy or in the 8th Air Corps over over Germany or in island hopping on every other week would be another Normandy invasion on some forgotten atoll fighting the Japanese Imperial Army. | ||
| That's what they that's what they wanted. | ||
| They're not Rambos. | ||
| They want to be Rambo. | ||
| They wanted a home a wife a couple of kids a white picket fence and stability. | ||
| That's what people want. | ||
| They're not asking for a lot. | ||
| But the sociopathic overlords around this country want it all for themselves. | ||
| And you're nothing but garbage. | ||
| You're nothing but trash. | ||
| And if you're an ethnic minority, working class, they could care less about you. | ||
| If you're a kid under 35 years old or under 30 years old, they could care less about you. | ||
| Don't take it from me. | ||
| 130, you don't even have any income. | ||
| Nothing. | ||
| I've told you forever you're nothing but a Russian serf. | ||
| They want you to be an indentured servant or a serf. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because they can make more. | ||
| They can control more. | ||
| This is not that complicated. | ||
| This is actually not quantum mechanics. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Pretty straightforward. | |
| And they're up in your face about it. | ||
| They're not hiding it. | ||
| But the big thing, everything must stop. | ||
| We gotta stop. | ||
| With everything going on in the country, we gotta stop. | ||
| And here's where we gotta stop. | ||
| Here's where we gotta stop. | ||
| Because we've got to get $60 billion to the Ukrainian oligarchs. | ||
| Well, hey! | ||
| What have we said on this show for two years from when it first started, and that the Ukrainian people were going to pay with their blood, and the country is going to be looking like Dresden in 1945 after the 8th Air Force, American 8th Army Air Corps finished with it? | ||
| What is it going to look like? | ||
| Well, you've seen it. | ||
| Now today, today, Politico, or yesterday, Politico, finally says the quiet part out loud. | ||
| Because Zelensky can't get 500,000 more kids to show up. | ||
| Because the parents are saying, screw you, dude. | ||
| You're not taking my son and throwing him in to the Eastern Front where the Russians are on the advance. | ||
| And it's not because America hasn't given the $80 billion, $60 billion. | ||
| One, your European buddies have not given you the shells and munitions that you needed. | ||
| Your NATO buddies, right? | ||
| Like Mershheimer said, and the parents are not given the manpower. | ||
| They're sitting there, no, we're not going to do that. | ||
| You're not going to take my son and throw his life away for nothing. | ||
| But lo and behold, Zelensky's got allies and they're just not in Brussels. | ||
| They're just not in Davos. | ||
| They're just not in the imperial capital. | ||
| It's just not Mitch McConnell who's staying around to get that money to Ukraine. | ||
| Guess what? | ||
| Ben Harnwell, you've said this for a long time, but today Politico had our backs on us. | ||
| It turns out their secret weapon, their secret weapon, Zelensky's secret weapon is not a hypersonic missile, it's a bunch of Nazis. | ||
| And that is not coming from the lips of Stephen K. Bannon or our own Ben Harnwell that anchors our European headquarters in Rome. | ||
| This is Politico Europe. | ||
| Ben, talk about the Nazis that are the great allies of Zelensky and the lovers of democracy in Kiev. | ||
| Steve, you know, we've taken this right out of the you-couldn't-make-it-up file, which is increasingly dictating the end stages of this war. | ||
| The journalist, by the way, I'm going to have all the links, I'm going to post all the links to these stories. | ||
| The journalist, by the way, who wrote this, Jamie Detmer, I know him from my days at This is an old school journalist. | ||
| So what he's got here is that I was in touch with him last night. | ||
| He's out in Kiev right now. | ||
| And this is sort of groundbreaking research that he's putting out in these articles. | ||
| He's got a whole string of articles there. | ||
| He's spoken to frontline officers who say the frontline is collapsing over there. | ||
| He's got this article here. | ||
| Steve, it's not just any old neo-Nazis, right? | ||
| This is to quote the German authorities. | ||
| The guy they're talking about here is called Dennis Kapustin. | ||
| But to quote the German authorities, and I quote, one of the most influential neo-Nazi activists. | ||
| So, you know, they haven't just gone in for the communal garden Nazis. | ||
| They've gone in. | ||
| But Zelensky's men, now they're now throwing a lot in with the ultra guys. | ||
| And what's amazing about this story, I mean, here's a guy who's got his own website. | ||
| He's shifting stuff, merchandise, with the Nazi symbol ATH, which stands for I didn't know half of this stuff about neo-Nazi imagery. | ||
| Folks at home, if you don't know, you know, they're always calling us white supremacists and neo-Nazis and all the rest of it, but if you don't know about the neo-Nazi imagery and what it signifies and you want to know more, just sort of check out who Zelensky's got fighting side by side. | ||
| The one thing here, Steve, that I read about this article, I really wanted to understand, and it says it sort of right towards the end, why is a Russian, an ethnic Russian, a Russian citizen, fighting for President Zelensky against Putin? | ||
| That seemed to me to be an interesting question, and here in the article it's got the research, Our guy Detmer has spoken to this and he sort of waxes lyrical about his time in South Africa and how he sort of, the nostalgia he has for the apartheid system. | ||
| This is an old school white nationalist, white supremacist. | ||
| Why is he fighting against Putin for Zelensky? | ||
| It's here in the article, Steve. | ||
| Putin's regime is not nationalistic enough for him, right? | ||
| Um, so here is the absurd situation. | ||
| Here's the upset situation. | ||

Hold it, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. | |
| This is in the can't make it up file. | ||
| This is Politico. | ||
| This is not over at Breitbart. | ||
| This is not Gateway Pundit. | ||
| This is Politico, their lead guy in Europe. | ||
| Oh, the guy fighting with Zelensky is because Putin and the KGB are not nationalistic enough. | ||
| Putin's too, he's a globalist. | ||
| Putin's a globalist. | ||
| It's unbelievable. | ||
| That's unbelievable. | ||
| These are the only guys fighting right now. | ||
| This is why they need them. | ||
| This is the guys fighting. | ||
| Hang on a second, Ben. | ||
| We're going to get to all to it. | ||
| We're a little jammed. | ||
| Philip Patrick's going to join us at 1130, the second hour of the C and D block. | ||

| Like I said, we don't give you personal financial advice, but we do lay out the macro cases we've done. | ||
| This is why we got Birch Gold as a sponsor years and years ago. | ||
| This is why we started the end of the dollar empire, which we're going to release is we're going to talk about it later. | ||
| We're going to release the fifth installment, but the central bank digital coin by the Federal Reserve, besides printing money to pay for this debacle over here, or I say pay for it, cover it up. | ||
| They're also spending all their time in the central bank digital currency, while the rest of the BRICS nation's central banks are buying cold with two hands! | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bamm. | |
| Remember, you were not a good person. | ||
| In fact, you were a bad person if you said, hey, I don't think we ought to be funding this Ukraine thing. | ||
| I think we care about the border in the United States, not the Eastern-speaking border of these two Slavic entities. | ||
| And they got to figure it out. | ||
| They ought to get to the table as quickly as possible. | ||
| Like, Zelensky had a deal in March before Boris Johnson went over there. | ||
| You know, Boris Johnson in his Winston Churchill phase went over there and said, no, the elites, the uniparty elites in Westminster in Washington, D.C. don't support this. | ||
| City of London doesn't support it. | ||
| Wall Street doesn't support it. | ||
| And talk him out of it. | ||
| You've seen the death and destruction. | ||
| You are not a good person. | ||
| And because Putin, who's the world's worst individual, according to them, and I'm no fan, he's a KGB guy. | ||
| You can't trust these guys. | ||
| They're criminals. | ||
| Junior partners to the big criminals in Beijing. | ||
| But just like we had Stalin as a partner, who was as bad or worse than Hitler. | ||
| Yeah, take your number two pencil out there and write that down. | ||
| As bad or worse than Hitler. | ||
| As bad or worse than Hitler. | ||
| We partnered with him and, you know, FDR's rubbing up on him, calling him Uncle Joe and giving me more weapons than he needed. | ||
| This is why they were so powerful at the end of the war. | ||
| But they coughed up 65 million casualties to get there. | ||
| The Russian people, the American people are not at war with the Russian people. | ||
| The American people are not at war with the Russian people. | ||
| If we want to start a third world war, let these elites keep hammering at it and we'll have one pretty quick. | ||
| Now, what Putin said, and they mocked him and laughed, every now and then MSNBC staff reads up there, you know, knitted brow on Morning Joe, you know, oh, he says denazification. | ||
| Putin said this from the beginning. | ||
| Correct me if I'm wrong, but put these articles up. | ||
| How many pieces are up there right now saying it's these neo- and man, they say they're neo-Nazis. | ||
| They kind of look like and talk like Nazis, right? | ||
| Guys who like revere Hitler, right? | ||
| These are pure-on fascists. | ||
| You know, he yearns for, you know, South Africa in the good old days, right? | ||
| His hit on Putin is he's not nationalistic enough. | ||
| Ben Harnwell. | ||
| You see, I mean, these guys are basically what the whole of the mainstream media said was taking place at Charlottesville all these years ago. | ||
| But the mainstream media's reportage of this is a hundred and 180 degrees reverse. | ||
| And I'm, you know, I'm not the only person confused by how the MSM has spun on a dime here. | ||
| What's he called here? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Dennis Kapustin, right? | |
| He... asks... | ||
| He says, will you try to remain unbiased in this interview? | ||
| And he says it's a very funny position for you and your colleagues because you've all been trying hard to put us in a bad light for years. | ||
| Neo-Nazis, racists, white supremacists, terrible guys, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| And then the darkest hour in Ukraine's modern day history arrives, he says, and all of a sudden the eternal bad guys turn out to be brave, courageous, determined, stubborn, and heroes. | ||
| And the mainstream media are like, damn, how should I write about them? | ||
| Well, that's absolutely correct, Steve. | ||
| You know, this guy, this neo-Nazi is exactly right. | ||
| And what he said in that single paragraph, which credit to Politico, they report in full, is the absolute hypocrisy. | ||
| Of the medium of information, right? | ||
| The absolute hypocrisy, the journalistic profession, which likes to give itself awards and have big sort of conferences where they pat one another on the back when the European Parliament has its Sakharov award and they're all In favour of journalists who are being persecuted around the world. | ||
| These people are by and large conveyors of disinformation. | ||
| And credit to Jamie Detmer here, who puts his paragraph in full of what this guy is saying. | ||
| Because it just, I think, it exposes the ludicrousness of the situation where you have neo-Nazis fighting for Ukraine against Putin, because Putin isn't neo-nationalist, isn't nationalist enough. | ||
| And then the neo-Nazis are like, wait a minute, to the major media, you're reporting this in a favourable light after smearing us for years. | ||
| How does that happen? | ||
| Well, we're still waiting for the answer on that one, Steve. | ||
| Well, if it hits their narrative. | ||
| Real quickly, also talk about the reality. | ||
| The Russians are an offense. | ||
| And it's not because we haven't come to the 60 bin. | ||
| This week, they're going to come out and it's all MAGA's fault. | ||
| It's War Room's fault. | ||
| It's MAGA's fault. | ||
| It's The Deplorables' fault. | ||
| It's America First. | ||
| Right? | ||
| These Lindbergh-like isolations. | ||
| It's all your fault that it's collapsed. | ||
| It's not collapsed. | ||
| It's not collapsed because they don't have any men. | ||
| They don't even mend because the people in Ukraine, the parents say, no, you're not taking my son. | ||
| That's why it's collapsing. | ||
| The will of the army, the army's shattered. | ||
| And it's not going to be another $60 billion of going to defense contracts that are going to save it. | ||
| If they need the cash, have them go to the Riviera. | ||
| Have them go to Monaco. | ||
| Have them go to Davos. | ||
| Have them go to Norway. | ||
| Plenty of money over in Europe. | ||
| Lots of money. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Lots and lots of money. | ||
| Talk to me about the article that says the front's collapsing. | ||
| Well if you go right back, talk about a buried lead, if you go right to the bottom of this article, still with the same journalist, Jamie Dedman, a different article here, he says, spoken to senior military Ukrainian officials, we don't have, they say, we don't have a military crisis, we have a political one. | ||
| While Ukraine shies away from the big draft, Russia is now gathering resources and will be ready to launch a big attack around August, or maybe sooner. | ||
| If that is what the intelligence is saying to the Ukrainian high command, this is an amazing revelation. | ||
| I'm surprised it's at the very bottom of the article, because I think that if this is true… Of course. | ||
| It's a buried lead. | ||
| It's a buried lead. | ||
| That's exactly what it is, Steve. | ||
| It's a buried lead. | ||
| How do people get to you over the weekend? | ||
| You'll be back with us on Monday. | ||
| MTG is going to kick it off. | ||
| We're going to talk about this supplemental, leading the effort to shut it down. | ||
| Not one penny to Ukraine. | ||
| Where do people go to get you, Ben? | ||
| Thanks so much, Steve. | ||
| Get to my social media platform of choice. | ||
| Just tap in my surname. | ||

| Jim Rickards laid this out yesterday. | ||
| Remember the part we didn't even get to talk about today, we'll do it next week, is that the solution, if we don't come up with all the money, if we block them, they're going to steal the Russian people's money. | ||
| All these guys that talk about Trump's all anarchy and chaos, that MAGA, the white nationalists in MAGA, the Christian dominationists in MAGA, they're the problem. | ||
| They're about to blow up the world's currency structure by stealing the Russian people's money and giving it to Ukraine. | ||
| Because in the United States, we've had enough of it. | ||
| We're not going to give money to Nazis. | ||
| Full stop. | ||
| We're not going to give money to Nazis. | ||
| That guy didn't sound too neo to me. | ||
| Sounded like a full-on Nazi. | ||
