Because we're going medieval on these people. | |
| President Trump got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people. | ||
| The people have had a belly full of it. | ||
| I know you don't like hearing that. | ||
| I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
| And where do people like that go to share the big lie? | ||

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

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

War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Babb. | |
| It's Thursday, 23 May in the year of our Lord 2020. | ||
| We are packed today, as usual, and we're going to go immediately to South Bronx. | ||
| New York Young Republican Club President Gavin Wax is there with a rally for President Trump. | ||
| The historic rally for President Trump will take place later today. | ||
| Gavin Wax, are you in a tropical rainstorm? | ||
| Are we going to have this rally today, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It appears so, Steve. | |
| I think I'm in hurricane-force winds right now. | ||
| It's coming down, but spirits are still high here in the South Bronx. | ||
| You can probably see behind me, maybe over my umbrella, we have a lot of very loyal supporters who arrived here even before I did. | ||
| I got here around 8 o'clock. | ||
| They were already here. | ||
| Just shows the level of support and enthusiasm this president has. | ||
| And storms are not going to keep us away, that's for sure. | ||
| I have some bad news, though. | ||
| I think your production team is about to unionize. | ||
| We got some people coming. | ||
| They're in proper attire, Steve, but I do think your team is about to unionize and head over to the opposing march very shortly. | ||
| Gavin, the weather forecast, it is supposed to clear up later today. | ||
| It'll be muddy, but this thing will take place, I think, around 4 o'clock. | ||
| Real America's Voice coverage is going to start. | ||
| You guys are putting on a pregame. | ||
| Do you anticipate that the weather's going to clear later in the day? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, by the looks of it, it's hard to say that right now. | |
| My shoes are about to fill up, but I do think it's going to clear up. | ||
| We have God on our side, and we have a great group of people, so I do think it's going to clear. | ||
| And based on the weather forecast that I've seen by noon today, it'll look a lot better, and I will probably have to go home and change. | ||
| But besides that, we will be having a good time after 12. | ||
| The president speaks around 6, I believe, by 6. | ||
| Things should be good. | ||
| They shouldn't look like this, but, you know, we'll see what happens, Steve. | ||
| Gavin, what about the counter-protests? | ||
| You just alluded to the fact that people are already showing up there for not-Trump supporters. | ||
| They're saying that they're going to shut this thing down. | ||
| Any truth to that rumor? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, listen, I think a lot of these far-left loonies up here in the Assembly and the City Council, you know, they're scared. | |
| You know, these guys are, you know, they have their little fiefdoms, they've never had any real political competition, and now you got the big guy coming to town to step on their turf, and they're freaking out because they know if he gets a big, a good showing today, which he will, it'll completely shatter their narrative about the Democrat Party, about urban politics, about this election, the trend line. | ||
| I think it speaks volumes that they're trying to shut down the event, that they're trying to shut down subways, which, based on the state of New York City infrastructure and this rain, I don't think they're gonna have to do much to do that. | ||
| But, with that said, the fact that they're trying to shut things down shows that they're scared. | ||
| I know they're trying to do another protest. | ||
| I heard they were trying to do another protest yesterday. | ||
| Didn't go anywhere. | ||
| So we'll see. | ||
| I mean, they could try their best, but I think most of the people that I've seen here on the ground are either neutral or very supportive. | ||
| I haven't really seen any I wonder for our international and the audience in the rest of America, just take a second and explain what a flex this is by President Trump. | ||
| What a show of force by MAGA. | ||
| They're living in Manhattan. | ||
| They're living in, you know, other areas of the city, but they're not in the Bronx. | ||
| So they can try their best, but this thing will go on. | ||
| I wonder for our international and the audience and the rest of America, just take a second | ||
| and explain what a flex this is by President Trump. | ||
| What a show of force by MAGA. | ||
| Put it in perspective of what's gonna happen today. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, listen, I think, you know, today it just goes to show that President Trump is willing to expand the coalition, | |
| expand the tent, go to areas the Republicans have never dreamed of visiting. | ||
| The last time a Republican visited here was Reagan in the 80s, and it was a disaster. | ||
| He certainly wasn't doing a rally, but President Trump is showing that he's the only Republican. | ||
| His populist, America First-style Republicanism is the only type of Republican politics that can expand the tent, reach new voters, reach new communities, and he's showing, with his own actions, That the Make America Great Again agenda applies to all Americans. | ||
| It applies to Americans here in the South Bronx. | ||
| It applies to Americans in Detroit, in the Rust Belt, big cities, small cities, urban, rural, blue, red, it doesn't matter. | ||
| He wants to uplift all of us. | ||
| He wants to protect the border. | ||
| He wants to bring back law and order. | ||
| He wants to get more money in our pockets. | ||
| He wants to bring down inflation and bring world peace back to the world stage. | ||
| All of these things are in support of everyday Americans, all Americans, because it's not You know, necessarily, you know, Bronx versus, you know, Red America, Blue America versus Red America. | ||
| This is elitists versus the people. | ||
| Gavin, where do people go for the website, Real America's Voice? | ||
| We're also going to be streaming at about four o'clock when the undercard starts. | ||
| President Trump's supposed to be up at six. | ||
| Where do people go for you, social media, New York Young Republicans Club, and today's rally in South Bronx? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely, Steve. | |
| You can follow the New York Young Republican Club at NYYRC. | ||
| That's on Twitter, Instagram, all social media. | ||
| Our website, NYYRC.com. | ||
| You can follow me at Gavin Wax on all social media platforms. | ||
| If you're in the metro area, you can still get down here. | ||
| It's going to be a blast. | ||
| Don't let these scenes fool you. | ||
| We're just cleaning off the streets of all the filth before the protest. | ||
| That's what this is. | ||
| But it's going to be ready for everyone to go when you get here. | ||
| So, Kratona Park, South Bronx. | ||
| Be there. | ||
| It's going to be historic. | ||
| Gavin Wax, great job sir, checking with you later in the day. | ||
| These patriots and warriors man, South Bronx, can't get better than that. | ||
| A full flex by Donald Trump and the MAGA movement. | ||
| Also I think Grace and Mo were trying to simulcast the Sovereignty Summit over on Capitol Hill. | ||
| Senator Johnson's putting on, going to be a list of great speakers. | ||
| We'll dip in and out of that as we can. | ||
| This is all about the World Health Organization and much more about our sovereignty. | ||
| So that's something we'll put up and put on our other same platforms, other channels on those platforms. | ||
| Now let's go ahead. | ||
| We've got Mark Paoletta is going to join us momentarily. | ||
| Dave Brat is in the studio today. | ||
| Dr. Dave. | ||
| And let's go and play our traditional cold open. | ||
| We'll go to Mark Paoletta. | ||
| So the Appeal to Heaven flag recently gained some notoriety because it also hangs out the office of the Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson. | ||
| You see it there on the right. | ||
| Now, it's been around since revolutionary times, but over the past decade or so specifically, it has grown closely associated with the Christian nationalist movement, including as the title of a book by a guy named Dutch Sheets. | ||
| He's a Trump supporter, an election denier, and one of the most influential Christian nationalists in the country. | ||
| As one former Christian nationalist told PBS early this year, he helped turn the flag into a rallying symbol among right-wing groups in this country. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The Appeal to Heaven flag goes back to the Revolutionary War, George Washington, it was inspired by John Locke. | |
| But over the last 10 years, the Appeal to Heaven flag has been popularized by Dutch Sheets. | ||
| Dutch Sheets sees the Appeal to Heaven flag as a symbol of Christian revolution. | ||
| If you look closely at January 6th, you will see dozens of Appeal to Heaven flags. | ||
| It may have a long history, but in the contemporary context, it has a very specific meaning. | ||
| And he is right. | ||
| It was indeed all over the Capitol on January 6th. | ||
| Just look. | ||
| And while I don't think it is quite as vile a symbol as the inverted flag flying over the wreckage of the sacked Capitol, still I think it's fair to say an explicitly political statement, right? | ||
| And unlike the first case where one can take a normal American flag and turn it upside down because you, I don't know, got into a fight with the neighbors, still working on that, In this case, Alito has to first acquire the Christian Nationalist Appeal to Heaven flag, and then take the action to fly it at his vacation home. | ||
| Not so easy to explain away because you got into a tiff with another set of neighbors? | ||
| Or to blame on your wife? | ||
| This, on its own, would be cause for sanction for any federal judge who flew it. | ||
| To be clear, if you're not in the Supreme Court and you did this, you'd get into a lot of trouble. | ||
| Now this time, Alito did not offer a statement to the New York Times. | ||
| He clearly thinks he can get away with this, and anything else. | ||
| Much like the ex-president, who he seems to want to bail out of trouble. | ||
| Alito believes he can act with total impunity. | ||
| He thinks of himself as covered beneath the veneer of non-partisan jurisprudence, and protected by lifetime tenure, and who's going to find enough Republican senators to impeach him. | ||
| What this story reveals is what we've already known about Alito. | ||
| He is, indeed, An ideological zealot and a flagrant partisan who puts his own personal politics before the law. | ||
| And apparently, he thinks so little of us, the American people, he does not even have the decency to pretend to hide it. | ||
| Okay, welcome back. | ||
| Man, oh man, you can smell the fear there. | ||
| They're coming after the court like nobody's business because we're beating him politically everywhere you look. | ||
| House, Senate, presidency, governorship, state legislatures, precincts. | ||
| We're rolling. | ||
| Peel to heaven. | ||
| This has particularly triggered MSNBC and CNN. | ||
| A full meltdown last night. | ||
| Every show. | ||
| Peel to heaven, the flag. | ||
| It's an honored flag in the American revolutionary tradition, is it not, sir? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| No, the left does what they do. | ||
| They play language games. | ||
| You just heard them with a word salad of accusations against conservatives and Christians. | ||
| And ethics charges, right? | ||
| And so just slow it all down. | ||
| What ethical charges? | ||
| And more importantly, what ethical system are you talking about? | ||
| In this country, the Judeo-Christian tradition gave us modern democracy. | ||
| Right? | ||
| It's full stop right there, right? | ||
| The Judeo-Christian ethical tradition gave us democracy. | ||
| It gave us all the great universities. | ||
| It gave us science. | ||
| It gave us metaphysics. | ||
| It gave us religion. | ||
| It gave us systematic theology. | ||
| And now the left, they're making ethical charges with no ethical system, right? | ||
| Karl Marx and Foucault and Derrida, all these modern folks on the left better read a book called Return of the Strong Gods. | ||
| There are choices to be made. | ||
| This flimsy leftist stuff is actually setting up a recoil and they're scared of that recoil. | ||
| They don't want the Judeo-Christian West Reasserting itself because the Judeo-Christian West is a fair system. | ||
| James Madison, who went to Princeton Seminary, set up the entire construction of our Constitution with minority rights for everyone. | ||
| Every minority right ought to be protected. | ||
| That does not get to mean, though, that a small minority, the 1% of the MSNBC news desk, gets to determine reality for the majority of Americans. | ||
| As much as they try. | ||
| Mark Paoletto. | ||
| The Appeal to Heaven flag. | ||
| What's the big deal? | ||
| It's in the fevered mind of the left, Steve, right? | ||
| It's a time-honored flag, you know, and the left wants to go after Aaliyah. | ||
| Look, what this is all about, right, as you said politically, President Trump has never been higher and looks like he's going to win in | ||
| 2024. | ||
| The Supreme Court, right, which is no longer controlled by the left, that's what they're | ||
| still wrapping their head around. | ||
| And every spring, as they get closer to these biggest opinions, right, at the end of the | ||
| term, the left goes into overdrive to try and delegitimize the court. | ||
| That's what's going on here. | ||
| This is such a silly story, such a stupid story, such a window into the left. | ||
| But the gaslighting that they do by covering it all night on MSNBC and CNN shows you what they do, what their tactics are. | ||
| If you remember, Dobbs was in 22. | ||
| Affirmative Action was in 23. | ||
| Now you have these Trump cases with the election coming up in June. | ||
| And they want to delegitimize the court. | ||
| So it's all about power. | ||
| It's not about ethics. | ||
| But the interim, they want to force him to recuse himself from the Fisher decision and particularly from the immunity decision. | ||
| Their tactical play now is to try to get him off of those decisions. | ||
| Am I wrong there? | ||
| No, that's right. | ||
| They're inventing recusal standards. | ||
| Exactly right, Steve. | ||
| They're saying there's flag, inventing all these things about this flag. | ||
| and then therefore he has to recuse. | ||
| There's no basis to recuse. | ||
| And it's funny, right, because, so to stay with that, they want him to recuse right now to shrink the court, | ||
| right, so that they get more liberals kind of on a, | ||
| if it's an eight person court, it's a seven person court, they've been going after Justice Thomas, | ||
| they get a better chance of winning in their mind of whatever these issues that are coming up are, right? | ||
| The longer term is as they continue to raise questions about the court, now I just saw a poll that showed the | ||
| court at 52% approval rating, okay, far above Congress, right? | ||
| It's gone up, I think 10 points in the past few months. | ||
| But they want to then sort of say, we need to pack the court and have a number | ||
| of liberal justices that Biden would appoint if he wins a second term, so that they get to, again, | ||
| That's what this is about. | ||
| Shrink the court in the short term and then raise questions about it so that they can pack it in the future. | ||
| They don't believe in an independent court. | ||
| That's what this is about. | ||
| You know, they never had these complaints when they controlled the court. | ||
| Now, all of a sudden, it's a huge deal. | ||
| This is this is part of the 30 front war. | ||
| We'll take a short break. | ||
| We're going to have a great beatdown from CNN last night. | ||
| Mark's going to rejoin us. | ||
| We're going to talk about their plan. | ||
| They have a plan. | ||
| The plan is definitely, if they, and this is the stakes in this election, if they win, they're going to increase the Supreme Court. | ||
| They're going to pack it. | ||
| They need to take the control of the Supreme Court. | ||
| Birchgold.com slash Bannon. | ||
| I think Philip Patrick's going to join us. | ||
| That having political opinions does not disqualify a justice. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Look at Ruth Bader Ginsburg. | |
| She had very negative opinions about Donald Trump and voiced them, right? | ||
| And yet she did not recuse herself in Trump versus Mazars or Trump versus Vance, the two 2020 cases in which the high court ruled against Trump both times. | ||
| On the other hand, she was an ardent feminist and spoke before women's groups, women's rights groups often, but she did not recuse herself from United States versus Virginia. | ||
| In fact, she wrote the ruling opinion in that case, striking down Virginia's law that restricted access to Virginia Military Academy Institute just to men. | ||
| So we have a recent example to show that having political opinions, even about very current | ||
| issues, does not disqualify a judge. | ||
| And we can, contrary to what Congressman Cohen said just a minute ago, I was shocked when | ||
| he said it, that Supreme Court has demonstrated that it can be very fair in deciding the law, | ||
| to Donald Trump. | ||
| The court has already heard four cases involving Donald Trump and has ruled against Trump in the first three of those four. | ||
| The fourth, of course, they ruled unanimously in Trump's favor because of the preposterous notion that he was disqualified by the 14th Amendment. | ||
| But in the first three cases he lost and so the justices that have been appointed by Trump, Alito wasn't of course, he was appointed by Bush. | ||
| These justices are doing their best to decide what the law is regardless of their political opinions. | ||
| One of the big distinctions here between Ruth Bader Ginsburg and what Justice Alito is dealing with is that In the case of the cases that are before the court now, that has to do with the very heart of the United States Constitution, the peaceful transfer of power and accountability for flouting that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We'll take a look at the two cases in 2020 regarding Trump. | |
| They did too. | ||
| In what way? | ||
| Well, because in the Mazars case... They had to do with the peaceful transfer of power? | ||
| No, but they had to do with presidential power. | ||
| Well, that's not the same thing. | ||
| Well, it is the same thing because, in fact, Ruth Bader Ginsburg had expressed as early as 2016 that she did not think Donald Trump should ever be president. | ||
| She was very outspoken about it. | ||
| And if we were to take the same standard of recusal and apply it to her, she would affront the fact that the left is trying to jigger In Information Warfare, that's a masterclass. | ||
| Betsy McCoy, she's an old war horse. | ||
| Hang on, Betsy will come down here and smack me upside the head. | ||
| She's a war horse. | ||
| Let me scratch, upon further review, let me scratch you. | ||
| She's a war horse. | ||
| But this is what you had, I'm gonna compare and contrast this later to Ted Cruz. | ||
| When you walk into the lion's den, you gotta have it together, you have to have your facts, and you gotta bring the heat. | ||
| She has hit Abby Phillips with a flamethrower. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| And Abby Phillips, let's be blunt, They came out yesterday, Dave, with the CNN evening ratings. | ||
| It's crashing. | ||
| Nobody's going to watch that. | ||
| I mean, that's just pathetic. | ||
| She's just not up to the task. | ||
| Has no idea what she's doing. | ||
| They always fall back. | ||
| What is democracy and peaceful transfer of power? | ||
| No, lady. | ||
| Listen, you're getting schooled. | ||
| Just take out your number two pencil and start writing it down. | ||
| Don't try to be, oh, I got to pivot and get out of this. | ||
| Her producer's blowing her up in the year. | ||
| Payaletta, right there, he had a masterclass. | ||
| What did you think of Betsy's analysis of the situation, sir? | ||
| Spot on. | ||
| And, you know, I've been writing on this stuff, Steve, for several years now, ever since he started going after Justice Thomas and the insane, unhinged attack on him, forever, but particularly after the 2020 election and going after his wife, Ginny. | ||
| So yes, and I direct your viewers to markpaylett.com where I have about 50 op-eds about with all of these examples. | ||
| Ruth Bader Ginsburg, you know, people say, oh, she's off the court. | ||
| Why are you focusing on her? | ||
| She was the most iconic justice celebrated by the left, the greatest justice of all time, right? | ||
| And she did these things. | ||
| She not only, as she said, appeared before women's groups, she had a lecture named after her that she spoke at, the NARAL Women's Conference. | ||
| That VMI opinion that Betsy was talking about, she donated that signed opinion for an auction to raise money for NOW. | ||
| A Supreme Court justice donating an opinion to raise money for a pro-abortion group. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| Nobody, nobody says, I think you should recuse from these cases going forward on abortion or when NOW or NARAL appear before you. | ||
| So, you know, I also uncovered that she had received an award from the Women's Democrat National Party, the Eleanor Roosevelt Award. | ||
| And guess who emceed the event? | ||
| Nina Totenberg. | ||
| Okay, never reported on until I came upon a website of this group and showing her receiving this Democrat award. | ||
| So if you look at the Democrat platform, abortion on demand, take your pick, right? | ||
| She was a very, very partisan and political justice. | ||
| This thing about Trump, right? | ||
| She trashed President Trump during, or candidate Trump during the 2016 election, right? | ||
| I pointed this out last night on X. | ||
| When she, when she, this is near the end of the term, I think in 2016, she trashes Trump. | ||
| She's getting interviewed by Adam Liptak from the New York Times. | ||
| She says all this stuff to him and his responses in this newspaper article that he writes is, You know, most justices don't talk this way, but she does. | ||
| How refreshing. | ||
| And nothing about how unethical this is, how troubling this is. | ||
| I saw another report where somebody said, oh, well, she apologized for those remarks. | ||
| Well, she did. | ||
| She knew what she was doing. | ||
| It was the game, right? | ||
| Trash Trump. | ||
| you know, give some bogus apology, but nobody ever criticized her and she never apologized | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nobody. | |
| for sitting on that Trump case. | ||
| Nobody and that's the problem. | ||
| You know, there's another court. | ||
| There's another judge on the D.C. circuit again, just current right now where Nina Pollard, | ||
| her husband is the the ACLU national litigation director. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| The national litigation director for the ACLU trashes Trump nonstop. | ||
| She never recused from a Trump case. | ||
| And in fact, the Mazar case, which is on the Trump taxes, the district court judge ruled against President Trump in 20, I think it was 2019. | ||
| Uh, that went up and her husband, David Cole, wrote a blog, wrote an article praising the judge saying that Trump doesn't want any accountability. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| His wife sat on a panel to review that. | ||
| So the exact case going up to her, to the spouse, she didn't recuse on. | ||
| I think we're going to... Dave? | ||
| Thoughts? | ||
| Comments? | ||
| Yeah, Pelet is spot on in his analysis. | ||
| Right now it's all about President Trump and the election coming up and just political warfare. | ||
| But when you open up the aperture a little wider, Christians and Jewish friends need to realize what's really going on here. | ||
| The attack from the left, from the Marxist and Neo-Marxist left after World War II used fascism, right? | ||
| Fascism and Hitler as the vehicle for which to trash Plato's metaphysics. | ||
| There's no higher realm to life. | ||
| There's no higher meaning. | ||
| Christianity, religion, nothing higher. | ||
| Nationalism, Christians' view of what the nation should be is based on higher metaphysical and religious views. | ||
| All of that has been outlawed by the left. | ||
| That's the broader trajectory that's coming after you. | ||
| And we need to realize that. | ||
| R.R. Rohr, R-O-H-R, in Return of the Strong Gods outlines this in its totality. | ||
| Foucault and Derrida want us eating insects. | ||
| They want our life reduced to sharing a loaf of bread and honey with your wife at a table, | ||
| sitting there enjoying the fullness of life. | ||
| I read the Colossians this morning. | ||
| The Judeo-Christian view is the exact opposite of that. | ||
| We're called to live the highest life possible, at the highest plane. | ||
| And of course, the highest metaphysical reality is God. | ||
| The person is God. | ||
| This cannot be the case for the left. | ||
| In order to rule and take control, they have to replace that God. | ||
| And Hitler was no Christian, right? | ||
| So to lob fascism at the feet of the Judeo-Christian West, And attack us for being the bad guys when we preserved the Constitution, minority rights, and fought against Hitler, a great Judeo-Christian accomplishment against the fascist forces. | ||
| It's just absurd on its face. | ||
| It's a political project of the left. | ||
| I think it's fading and dying because the American people are waking up to this thanks to this show and others like it. | ||
| And Steve Bannon's heroic efforts on this for the last few years. | ||
| To pick up on that, Mark, they say this appeal to heaven, the reason he's terrible is that it's a flag of Christian nationalism. | ||
| They totally skip over it. | ||
| It came in the Tea Party when we wanted to get back to the roots of the Constitution, the roots of the revolutionary generation. | ||
| A big part of the Tea Party was to go back to our roots. | ||
| And, of course, this flag was at all the Tea Party rallies I ever saw. | ||
| In fact, the first time I understood it, it was outside the Navy. | ||
| It was a Naval flag also used. | ||
| On Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the irony is, for really smart people on the left, she outstayed her welcome, didn't she? | ||
| She was so egotistical, she stayed all the way to the end instead of retiring when she should have, and it gave us another billet, another slot. | ||
| Yeah, Steve, you and I went through the process of interviewing justices. | ||
| And, you know, it's interesting, right, that she stayed until 2020 and then President Trump got to appoint Amy Barrett to the court. | ||
| I also found, I looked back at this Adam Liptack story on Ginsburg in 2016. | ||
| And one of the things she talked about was there was a case called Fisher that had come down that term. | ||
| in 2016 that upheld race-based affirmative action in colleges. | ||
| And she said, quote, that's a decision built to last. | ||
| And a couple of short years later, because of President Trump's appointments and led | ||
| by Justice Thomas, who's been doing this for 30, 32 years, they wiped out Fisher in the | ||
| Harvard case. | ||
| So her prediction was spectacularly wrong about it. | ||
| So yeah, she's the little partner there, trashing President Trump, really going out of her way, | ||
| just really, I think it's the most unethical act in modern times of a Supreme Court justice. | ||
| And there were articles praising her for using her political capital to go after Trump and | ||
| try and stop him from being in the White House. | ||
| you Praising, praising. | ||
| Mark, hang on for one second. | ||
| I do want to talk about the FBI and some other things. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're lucky to have Mark Paoletta, who's done such an amazing job and alerted us, along with Mike Lee, who's done a fantastic job, about the left's focus. | ||

Newly released court filings show that the FBI was authorized to use deadly force if needed during the raid of your private home in August 2022. | |
| It's stunning. | ||
| You know, you're a former president of the United States. | ||
| What was your reaction that it was authorized by Biden's DOJ? | ||
| Well, these are vicious people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
These are fascists, communists. | |
| Let me go through the wording here very carefully in just a moment. | ||
| First, I want you to know how much this claim of an assassination has been, you know, steamrolling in the MAGA world. | ||
| Trump claiming on social media that there are, quote, reports that crooked Joe Biden's DOJ, in their illegal and unconstitutional raid of Mar-a-Lago, all caps, authorized the FBI to use deadly, lethal force. | ||
| And Trump's allies are running with that narrative. | ||
| They authorized deadly force. | ||
| They had a medic. | ||
| They had a plan to triage the wounded. | ||
| They had a trauma center 18 miles away and a map. | ||
| This was an attempted assassination attempt on Donald John Trump or people associated with him. | ||
| Biden unleashed armed agents into Trump's house, authorizing them to use deadly force. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right, again, I'm going to get to this authorizing about Deadly Force in a moment, but more MAGA. | |
| Marjorie Taylor Greene on social media, quote, the Biden DOJ and FBI were planning to assassinate President Trump and gave the green light. | ||
| Congressman Paul Gosar, Biden ordered the hit on Trump at Mar-a-Lago. | ||
| A hit, an assassination. | ||
| These are sitting congresspeople, of course, that I just quoted there, accusing the sitting president and the FBI of trying to assassinate a former president. | ||
| Do you think if the former president is found guilty, do you worry about what the response to that might be? | ||
| No. | ||
| No, I think it's... I continue to worry about threats against individual poll workers and council people and that sort of thing. | ||
| I'm not worried about an uprising of violence on Donald Trump's behalf. | ||
| I don't think you've seen the crowds anywhere he's gone. | ||
| I think a message was sent after January 6th That your life will be ruined if you engage in that kind of behavior, and his crowd are not jihadis looking to die for the orange god. | ||
| They are people who are attached to him as a cult leader in a way, an entertainment figure, but they're not going to lay themselves down for him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, for my friends, everything, for my enemies, the law, you know, is the mindset among these Republicans, and I'm glad you brought up the case in Texas, because I've been just outraged by this all week, and there is a direct line between these things, right? | |
| This notion that Daniel Perry, who murdered Garrett Foster on cold blood, and who's convicted by a jury of his peers, can be pardoned. | ||
| The January 6th writers could be pardoned. | ||
| What is the signal, going back to my previous answer, about to radicalize people? | ||
| The signal to radicalize supporters of Donald Trump is you can take the law into your own hands and we will have your back. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And meanwhile, we'll fly these blue, thin blue line flags and trash any federal officials that want to hold us accountable. | ||
| Trash anybody that want to, you know, hold any Republicans accountable for crime. | ||
| So, like, it's only, we only like the blue if the blue is going after the left or cultural enemies or, you know, Black Lives Matter festers. | ||
| That's sickening. | ||
| And I think that it is incentivizing more violence and it's extremely dangerous. | ||
| I occasionally have someone literally say, **** you on the street. | ||
| Comey. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Mark Pialetta, you've dedicated your life to the judiciary system, the rule of law. | ||
| You've had this rate of Mar-a-Lago. | ||
| And here's what they're trying to use. | ||
| Oh, this boilerplate standard. | ||
| That's if you're, that is a process if you're taking down a drug cartel or if you're taking down a, you know, they used the example last night Oh, well, federal marshals, you know, went to the guy in, where was it, Texas or somewhere, where four marshals were killed. | ||
| Well, the guy was a felon, a dangerous felon. | ||
| He had arms and he was out on a, you know, he skipped bail. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And they knew he was armed and dangerous. | ||
| I mean, this is the President of the United States over in archives. | ||
| There's no doubt that the FBI has devolved into the American Gestapo. | ||
| One of the reasons you've had leaders Like Comey. | ||
| Mark Payaletta, your thoughts on where we stand now with the true rule of law in this nation? | ||
| Yeah, well, you see the Biden, you know, Biden, President Biden, weaponizing the Department of Justice. | ||
| We saw him signaling that he was upset that Garland didn't move faster, right? | ||
| You see Fannie Willis' lover, unqualified lawyer, going up to the White House to meet with the White House Counsel's Office. | ||
| Matthew Colangelo going up from the Biden Justice Department to Alvin Bragg's team. | ||
| It's all meant to go after Donald Trump, to keep him off the ballot, and in the case of this raid on Mar-a-Lago, to humiliate him and to treat him like he's a danger. | ||
| It's so outrageous. | ||
| It's so weaponized, what Biden's doing. | ||
| And so the rule of law is suffering. | ||
| And you're seeing I think Dave said, I think there's going to be this pushback, this pendulum swing. | ||
| The American people are fed up with this and the weaponization of the Justice Department, the weaponization of all the attacks on conservatives. | ||
| Flying a flag becomes a threat. | ||
| Flying a flag means you need to recuse. | ||
| All of this stuff is just made up, meant to destroy conservatives. | ||
| Flying a flag from the revolutionary generation that appealed to heaven to make sure that we knew that, hey, we had to be right with God It's not that God's on our side, it's that we had to be on God's side. | ||
| The whole concept of the flag was appeal to heaven. | ||
| And they've turned that into, they've taken something from a revered object and now for a Supreme Court justice to fly it, it's enough to throw him off the court. | ||
| But he must, in the least, he's got to recuse himself. | ||
| That's how demonic these people are, Mark Paglioletta. | ||
| Yes, Steve. | ||
| And you remember, President Trump, when he started tearing down statues, said they'll come for Jefferson, they'll come for Washington. | ||
| And everyone laughed at him, right? | ||
| And what's happening now? | ||
| They're going after Washington, right? | ||
| Flying the American flag. | ||
| Look at my flag in my background. | ||
| It will be considered a sign of resistance. | ||
| We're overthrowing the government in a few months, perhaps. | ||
| But I do think there is this backlash against the woke. | ||
| The American people are waking up. | ||
| The left, as always, goes way past whatever they were trying to do, which was a problem to begin with. | ||
| But that's what we're seeing today, I think. | ||
| And you're seeing the rallies for President Trump. | ||
| You know, with great support. | ||
| It's just, it's just despicable what the left has been doing. | ||
| And to see, again, that was a jolt to see James Comey. | ||
| I'm so glad he's gone out of our public life. | ||
| What a terrible public servant, you know, running the FBI. | ||
| A terrible person. | ||
| That's the administrative state right there. | ||
| Mark, your writings on all this are spectacular. | ||
| I want the audience to get full access to it. | ||
| So where do they go? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| MarkPayaletta.com. | ||
| I have a bunch of my op-eds. | ||
| I have some of my congressional testimony. | ||
| And then my ex-handle is at MarkPayaletta, putting up a lot of material defending the court, defending President Trump against all these taxes. | ||
| And what I like to bring are receipts and documents. | ||
| You know, we just, on this fight over the, you know, Biden bizarrely invoked executive privilege over the audio tape, right, for his interview with her. | ||
| I put up on my ex yesterday an example of where Biden wiped out a very embarrassing | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| statement he said in the audio videotape from a hearing during the Hill Thomas hearings | ||
| that's completely missing from the actual transcript. | ||
| So that's why Jim Jordan needs to go get that audio. | ||
| Who knows what Robert Herr, who was a partner of Justice the justice employee at the time, | ||
| negotiated with Biden to strike from the written official transcript, okay? | ||
| And I urge your viewers to go back and look at what I put up | ||
| where Biden literally in the Anita Hill talks about groping. | ||
| Let's get everybody on this. | ||
| Okay? On the audio. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And it's wiped out from the official record. | ||
| That's why Jordan, and he's right, he's been going after it, | ||
| to go after that audio tape, video tape. | ||
| Here's, in fact, on John Frederick this morning, the great Andy Biggs, and I thank Christine Bouserman, | ||
| one of the engine room participants for highlighting this. | ||
| They asked, and pay attention if I let you, both of you guys, because you were a member of Congress, although you were referred to in an Esquire article, I think, as a gadfly. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We'll address this more later. | |
| But Biggs said the votes are not there. | ||
| The reason Johnson hasn't brought it. | ||
| Johnson said, I got the votes. | ||
| It's going to be overwhelming. | ||
| It'll be when they get back from Memorial Day. | ||
| Biggs says, Mark, they actually don't have the votes for contempt. | ||
| He says one of the reasons they don't have the votes is that certain congressmen are afraid that, hey, if I come out and vote, I'm going to be targeted by the FBI and I'm going to be targeted by the Justice Department. | ||
| That's the type of fear they've instilled by that raid and what they're doing to Trump's followers, what they're doing to President Trump. | ||
| Do you agree, Mark, that he should be held, that if he doesn't turn him over, he should be held in contempt? | ||
| Merrick Garland? | ||
|
unidentified
|
100%. | |
| There's zero basis to invoke executive privilege here. | ||
| It's obviously hypocritical, but legally, zero basis to invoke executive privilege here. | ||
| And again, just in terms of the concern, yeah. | ||
| I mean, look, this goes all the way back to Biden. | ||
| I mean, to Obama, right? | ||
| With the IRS. | ||
| And going after conservative groups, right? | ||
| I mean, so it's not without cause that people think that, you know, the Justice Department, the IRS are going to be weaponized against me if I stand up for a conservative, you know, or anti-Biden action. | ||
| But they should hold them in contempt. | ||
| There's no reason why Well, you know, there's no reason to not turn that thing over. | ||
| There's a lawful subpoena. | ||
| And as I put up yesterday, you know, Biden has a history of wiping out things he doesn't want in, uh, you know, in the printed record, uh, and sort of memory hole it. | ||
| And as I said, Robert, her, I don't know if he agreed to him. | ||
| You don't know. | ||
| Uh, I looked at the back of the transcript. | ||
| Uh, there's no, um, usually have an addendum of what the, uh, the witness wants to add or, or, you know, correct. | ||
| There's nothing there. | ||
| Uh, so I don't know what the actual audio contains, so I do think they should vote Garland in contempt. | ||
| He's been very contemptuous in general of Congress and the American people. | ||
| Mark Paoletta, thank you very much. | ||
| Honor to have you on here. | ||
| The American people need to listen to that real good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
folks. Would you vote to hold him in contempt if you were there? Oh absolutely. And the | |
| members of Congress, the American people need to listen to that real good. Biggs is a hero | ||
| and a great man. And for him to say members of Congress are scared of the unelected branch | ||
| of government, the administrative state, the deep state, that's what we're talking about | ||
| on the war room a lot. All political views are my own. But there's a book called Double | ||
|
unidentified
|
Government and it turns out I've been- National Security and Double Government. Which links | |
| the deep state in with the administrative state. | ||
| And I was gullible, right? | ||
| I'm Minnesota nice. | ||
| You got all these nice Christians out there. | ||
| They can't believe that this country could be regime-ending right now. | ||
| They can't fathom it. | ||
| This is the greatest country. | ||
| Republic-ending. | ||
| Republic-ending. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This regime could end the republic. | |
| It could come to a crashing halt. | ||
| They always do. | ||
| Every regime comes to an end, right? | ||
| And so we better wake up to this fact. | ||
| The left is gaslighting us. | ||
| were scared and double government contrasts what he calls the Madisonian | ||
| vote logic, which was me, right? | ||
| Hey, we've got this separation of powers. Whenever you hear your Republicans now | ||
| talk about the separation of powers, that's a signal that they don't really know what's going on | ||
| anymore, right? Because that's contrasted with the Trumanites | ||
| who put in the CIA and the FBI and all the three-letter institutions | ||
| after World War II. | ||
| They're running the government. | ||
| That's why Obama and Bush can have the same foreign policy when Obama is trying to fundamentally change this country. | ||
| And he can't do it. | ||
| Even Obama couldn't do it, right? | ||
| So that all calls into question, which this show has done a lot of work and Mike Benz has done a lot of work. | ||
| Who's in charge of this thing? | ||
| And the answer is it's multifold. | ||
| It's not clean right now. | ||
| You've got the Atlanticists. | ||
| You've got the globalists. | ||
| You've got the Wall Street financial interests. | ||
| You've got the leftists. | ||
| You have a spiritual war going on. | ||
| The demonic piece is for real. | ||
| Just look at the kids these days suffering from mental health. | ||
| That's not some simple little economic explanation, right? | ||
| Well, you know, average family earnings are down a bit. | ||
| Therefore, the kids are suffering mental illness. | ||
| There are deep, deep issues that have been brought on for 50 years because we've lost the fundamental structures in ideas. | ||
| Again, I want to call people's attention to that Rohr book, right? | ||
| He's the editor of First Things, Serious Mind. | ||
| He's explaining ideas are no longer allowed. | ||
| Just think about that for a minute. | ||
| Ideas, right? | ||
| At the same time, the left is controlling ideas and they're telling you ideas are not allowed. | ||
| This is the fundamental Marxist problem. | ||
| At the end of the day, someone's going to rule and their point is it ain't going to be us. | ||
| And The Economist is now, they're back to Trump as Caesar. | ||
| Yes, same logic. | ||
| Same playbook. | ||
| We're going to come back and talk about this. | ||
| By the way, the Chinese Communist Party today, massive, massive show of force around Taiwan. | ||
| They're having naval exercises. | ||
| They're actually, with live ammo, have these jets going around. | ||
| They're not firing anything, but it's a show of force because of the inauguration of the | ||
| new Chinese, the Taiwanese president, Republic of China president. | ||
| And they're going hard. | ||
| So you've got supply chain, you've got cyber, you've got all of this. | ||

| It's kind of amazing in the United States of America we could be doing this, could have this. | ||
| The, um, remember Robert Kagan, who's, uh, two things. | ||
| Let's go back in time. | ||
| As soon as Trump won the public theater in, uh, in New York, put on Shakespeare's, uh, Julius Caesar with Trump, the character of Julius here in a power blue suit, the white shirt, the red tie, the blonde hair. | ||
| The wife was Eastern European. | ||
| Caesar's wife was played by someone who looked like Melania. | ||
| And they did the assassination scene and they got standing ovations every night. | ||
| This was the intellectuals, you know, the crowding Central Park. | ||
| The public theater is a very awfully, awfully group downtown that puts it on. | ||
| It's not a Broadway house, but it's a, you know, real theater. | ||
| And then you had Robert Kagan came out this year, Victoria Nuland's husband, kind of the power couple of the neoliberal neocons. | ||
| And he wrote a huge piece in The Washington Post making the moral justification of taking Brutus's side and the assassin's side, saying they were trying to save their republic from a rising populist dictator. | ||
| That would be Julius Caesar, and they were actually in the right to do that. | ||
| Now, The Economist, the People magazine of the party of Davos, cover story is America dictator-proof. | ||
| And once again, you have Julius Caesar with the American flag draped over his arm. | ||
| And this is all this is all about Trump understanding that they can't defeat Trump at the polls, understanding he's going to do a full flex on them in in South Bronx today at the heart of the beast, right, where they steal the elections. | ||
| And they had the people up there in slavery. | ||
| That's slavery. | ||
| He's going as the great emancipator today in a flex. | ||
| And they're in meltdown. | ||
| So now you're hearing Trump's never going to leave. | ||
| Trump's going to stay there forever. | ||
| Trump's going to declare himself dictator. | ||
| That the MAGA, the deplorables are the new brown shirts. | ||
| And, you know, we're bad guys and we're going to protect Trump and basically turn this republic into a dictatorship. | ||
| Dave Brat, your thoughts. | ||
| Yeah, well that picture says it all, right? | ||
| The Economist magazine with Caesar in the red, white, and blue, right? | ||
| So there's no missing what's going on here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's not subtle. | |
| It's not nuanced. | ||
| And it fits in with the comments I've been giving on Roar and the return of the strong gods. | ||
| The very people that say we should not have the Judeo-Christian God And higher ideas in life are trucking in poetry and the arts. | ||
| What's that got to do with anything? | ||
| Plato warned us 2,400 years ago, beware of the poet. | ||
| Poets and music and the arts are more powerful than even reason and rationality, which you don't see anymore on the university campuses. | ||
| When's the last time you've heard a treatise on reason coming out of Harvard or Columbia or Stanford or Yale, etc? | ||
| You don't. | ||
| All you hear is protest, neo-Marxist language that's set up to gaslight us. | ||
| So what The Economist is doing fits in with what the New York art scene is doing, and it's not subtle. | ||
| It's a total attack upon a person and a party coming up. | ||
| All political views are my own. | ||
| But now it's incumbent on the citizens of this country to wake up and realize what's happening here. | ||
| We need to reassert our traditions. | ||
| We need to take charge of our government again. | ||
| We all need to get out to the voting boxes. | ||
| Christians don't even vote. | ||
| Half Christians don't vote. | ||
| Half aren't registered to vote. | ||
| And so I'm not saying a party or a person, etc. | ||
| When you look at young evangelicals, because this has got to be traditional Catholics in the evangelical church, when you see the evangelicals, do you see now, this young generation, a receding back from the public square, from actually getting engaged in politics? | ||
| Are they still as engaged? | ||
| They're not as engaged in the politics, right? | ||
| They want to be more engaged in NGOs, doing good deeds. | ||
| They like helping other people. | ||
| They like helping their neighbor, etc. | ||
| But they have not been educated in what the politics is and how the structure of your society will determine what you're able to do. | ||
| If the left has its way and takes out God and takes out religion, Then, you know, all the preachers will say, well, just cry out to God, right? | ||
| Pray to God, cry out to God. | ||
| Well, why wait to cry out to God when we're in bondage again, right? | ||
| Let's cry out now, back in the last segment. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There's no... Is it being taught that you need to use your agency? | |
| I mean, God works through human instrumentality, correct? | ||
| The Old Testament and the New Testament. | ||
| Last time I read them, it looks like the work of God is coming through human instrumentality. | ||
| That's your agency. | ||
| Is that ever taught? | ||
| That, hey, you just can't cry to God. | ||
| God's gonna sit there and go, okay, I got it. | ||
| Providence will work through you, but you got to get up off the sofa and get on with it. | ||
| The fullest revelation of God in the Christian tradition is Jesus. | ||
| And so, a lot of young people haven't been fully educated into who that Jesus is, right? | ||
| They say, He didn't engage in politics and it's dirty and we're not going to do that. | ||
| Jesus is part of the Trinity, and the Trinity was very active in the Exodus, which is the central act of the Hebrew Scriptures, and it was a political act. | ||
| So God has always been active in every king through the Old Testament, beyond that, right? | ||
| Through Babylonian kings and Persian kings, etc. | ||
| God was active, fighting for the good always, and always tried to call the people back to himself. | ||
| And that's what's going on at this moment in this country. | ||
| You cannot be the Judeo-Christian West without the Judeo part and the Christian part. | ||
| And so you're right about the agency, and no one has any problems, right? | ||
| Was it right for us to fight in the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World War II against Hitler? | ||
| Sure, no problem. | ||
| Can you fight now? | ||
| And for some reason, in the last 50 years, with the rise of Neo-Marxism, our minds have become mush. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
