Most heartbreaking of all is Kamala's migrant invasion has brought massive crime into our country at levels that nobody's ever seen before. | ||
We've never seen levels like this. | ||
And during the debate, I mentioned that, and David Muir, a real lightweight, whose ratings have gone way down, by the way, because he lost credibility, had one against three, but I think we did great. | ||
But David Muir of ABC, fake news, When I said that crime is way up in our country, he corrected me. | ||
He corrected me on so much, and it was right, what I said. | ||
He didn't correct her one time, and what she said was wrong. | ||
He was pointing me when to go. | ||
Absolutely wrong. | ||
So many different—Charlottesville, she was wrong. | ||
Here in the War Room, it's Thursday, September 28th. | ||
And they violated the deal. | ||
2024. We're going to let President Trump wrap up his remarks, but stay tuned because after | ||
unidentified
|
Why? | |
that we're joined in studio in Washington, D.C. by Congressman Cory Mills and Congressman | ||
Eli Crane to walk through the assassination hearing that we saw today, the CR fight, Speaker | ||
Johnson's fate, and so much more. But until then, let's let President Trump wrap up his | ||
speech from New York. | ||
And they violated the deal. Why? Because they're bad people and they're fake news. So he did | ||
it many times to me during the debate. | ||
He violated the deal. | ||
That's the deal. | ||
Because you can take anything and try and make up stories with it. | ||
We had a deal where that wouldn't happen. | ||
You could do whatever you wanted as soon as the debate was over. | ||
But he did it in total violation of what our agreement was. | ||
And a lot of people standing right over there will tell you exactly what it was. | ||
We'll show you what it was. | ||
David Burr has lost all credibility. | ||
The other person, I never heard of her. | ||
I never want to hear of her. | ||
She was terrible. | ||
I don't know how she ever got her job in the first place. | ||
But we have a country to save, and we can't have fake news like that. | ||
And his ratings deserve to go down. | ||
Here in New York City, an estimated 75% of arrests in midtown Manhattan And over 60% of arrests in Queens are now illegal aliens. | ||
They've given you the fake stories that the illegals coming into the country are much better than our people. | ||
They don't commit crimes. | ||
These are some of the worst criminals anywhere in the world. | ||
And they don't just come from South America. | ||
They come from all over the world. | ||
The Congo in Africa. | ||
A lot of them coming from the Congo. | ||
The Middle East. | ||
Asia. | ||
They do come from South America, but not all. | ||
They're coming from all over the world, and they're emptying out their jails, and they're emptying out their mental institutions. | ||
The money they're saving is beyond belief in what they're doing to our country. | ||
And if I were the president of one of those countries, I'd be doing the same thing. | ||
I'd say let's empty out our jails into the United States. | ||
We're dumping ground for the rest of the world, and it's going to stop starting on January 20th. | ||
But the most important day in the history of our country is going to be November 5th, Election Day. | ||
Three months ago, in Queens, an illegal alien released into our country by Border Czar Harris approached two 13-year-old children. | ||
With a machete in broad daylight, forced them into the woods, tied them together by the wrists, and raped the young girl, hurt the girls very, very badly. | ||
They caught him because he put it on tape. | ||
He put it on film. | ||
They caught him. | ||
He thought it would be nice to have it on tape to show his friends. | ||
In June, two NYPD officers were shot at point-blank range. | ||
By an illegal migrant from Venezuela. | ||
By the way, the crime rate in Venezuela is down to the lowest level it's ever been that they know of. | ||
Because they've taken their street gangs, they've taken their criminals off the streets, they've taken their drug dealers, and they've emptied their jails almost. | ||
They'll be emptied very soon, within the next two months. | ||
I guess they can't get enough buses. | ||
But they're bringing people at record levels to our country. | ||
These are criminals. | ||
And their crime rate is the lowest it's been ever that anybody can remember. | ||
It's become — Caracas has become a safe and wonderful city, unlike our cities that are getting worse and worse with this horrible invasion that Kamala — in particular, because I'm no fan of Biden. | ||
He's been a terrible president. | ||
Doesn't know what he's doing, and he proved that during the debate. | ||
But you know what? | ||
He assigned her the job. | ||
And whether you call her a border czar or just say that she was put in charge of the border, doesn't make any difference. | ||
Same thing. | ||
She's done a horrible job, and she'll be out there tomorrow standing probably in front of the wall that I built. | ||
Trying to say what a wonderful job she did, and the fake news will believe her because that's what they want to do. | ||
But she didn't, and I hope everybody out there understands that. | ||
The Border Patrol custody was incredible, and I have to say that Border Patrol has done an amazing, an amazing job under the circumstances. | ||
And you heard Tom Holman many times say there was never anywhere near Anybody as good as President Trump, when it came to all of the things that we're talking about, the border, crime on the border, he said there wasn't anybody even close as president. | ||
In Albany last May, an illegal alien who was caught and released by Kamala Harris stalked and raped a 15-year-old girl, driving up behind her, abducting her by force with a metal pipe, and raping her again and again. | ||
Over and over, and hurting her very badly. | ||
In Indiana this June, a woman was kidnapped by two illegal aliens, brought to a house, held down and raped, and then forced into the back of a car, while illegals drove around talking about how to kill her. | ||
Let's find out how to kill her. | ||
She threw herself out of the moving vehicle, Was badly hurt, but escaped. | ||
And she said, they didn't mean to rape me, they meant to kill me. | ||
That was her statement. | ||
Earlier this year, an illegal migrant from Haiti granted entry by Kamala and her horrible policies. | ||
And in particular, her phone app, which nobody can even believe exists. | ||
And the people that deal with the phone app are the cartel heads, if you can believe this. | ||
They're actually put there, I believe, for the heads of the cartels. | ||
And they call it, and they tell you exactly where to illegally bring the people that they've, in many cases, abducted. | ||
The phone app. | ||
I hope the press looks into that. | ||
Brutally stabbed this woman to death. | ||
Two people in Suburban Middletown New York are looking at this with a life that will always be shattered. | ||
It'll be shattered and can never be the same. | ||
The brutality was unbelievable. | ||
And despite all of this, Kamala Harris intends to stand before the American people tomorrow and lie. | ||
She's going to lie just like she did about her job at McDonald's. | ||
Just like she did about the 818,000 jobs that they created that were fake jobs. | ||
They didn't exist. | ||
It's a fraud. | ||
And there's nothing nice about what I'm saying. | ||
Our country's in trouble. | ||
And we need people that know how to take care of our country and take care of our border. | ||
Without borders and without fair elections, we have no country. | ||
She wants to pretend that she had a secure border. | ||
But all you have to do is look at the numbers. | ||
The worst border anywhere, probably anywhere in the world, there's never been a border like this. | ||
A third world country would have used sticks and stones to get people out. | ||
They wouldn't let millions and millions of people invade. | ||
But if that were true, and if she were going to announce tomorrow that she's going to do something about it, why hasn't she done it? | ||
And why didn't she do it? | ||
Almost four years ago, all of these things she could have done four years ago. | ||
You will hear Kamala claim that the reason the border is not secure is that Congress has refused to pass her atrocious border bill. | ||
It's the worst bill you've ever seen. | ||
It would allow people to come in here at levels that would be incredible and would allow them to get citizenship. | ||
But it was not a border bill. | ||
It was an amnesty bill. | ||
And they duped a couple of people that shouldn't have been duped. | ||
It would give her the power to put all newly entering illegal aliens on a fast track to citizenship. | ||
It would enshrine and expand catch and release. | ||
And it would give a permanent feature. | ||
Welcome to the War Room. | ||
Absolutely unacceptable. | ||
She keeps talking about this law that they tried to put through Congress, | ||
but fortunately, Congress was too smart for it. | ||
Would have been a disaster. | ||
It would have established a minimum number of... | ||
Welcome to the War Room. | ||
It's Natalie Winters, like I said, hosting from Washington, D.C. | ||
We have a packed show for you. | ||
Of course, if you watch CNN or MSNBC, you wouldn't know today was the first public hearing of the task force on the assassination attempt against President Donald Trump. | ||
That's because they didn't cover it. | ||
The same people that want to lecture us about democracy and rhetoric. | ||
When they tell you that speech is violence, it's not a warning. | ||
They're telling you they're playbook, and it's quite telling that they didn't choose to air a single second of today's hearing. | ||
I guess par for the course. | ||
I know this audience was watching it in depth. | ||
Definitely left a little more for wanting. | ||
Luckily we're joined by two people who this show has maintained from the get-go should have been on that task force. | ||
But before we get to them, I know the art of the tease, we got Eric Prince who is equally informed and probably should have been on that task force too. | ||
Wave him in. | ||
Eric Prince, I know you got to bounce your tight, but real quick, just give us your sort | ||
of top line assessment appraisal of the hearing that we saw today. | ||
What you think we still need to press on and frankly, just how to keep President Trump | ||
safe. | ||
Look, I think that the simplest, fastest way to supplement security, because the Secret | ||
Service is not going to change until there's actual accountability and the people that | ||
were deficient that don't want to do the job are removed. | ||
The fastest way to supplement his security is to bring in some JSOC operators from Delta or SEAL Team 6. | ||
They have a lot of capacity, highly trained, the most proficient commandos in the world. | ||
And I think the best argument is it takes a hunter to stop a hunter. | ||
And having people with a very offensive, predatory mindset is the best way to protect Trump, to think about all the vulnerabilities and how to plug those vulnerabilities. | ||
And it's a government-to-government thing. | ||
There's lots of track record and precedents in doing this. | ||
Remember when George Herbert Walker Bush was president and he'd go fishing, sometimes with foreign leaders, while he was in Kennebunkport, Maine, he was protected by SEAL Team Six and their boats and their guns. | ||
Uh, so this is not unheard of. | ||
This is not unprecedented and they can do it, um, uh, for both candidates. | ||
But, um, certainly there is concern. | ||
There's lots of Intel floating around about Iranian hit teams having entered the country, including with man pads, um, with, um, with a missile that could shoot down Trump's plane that is exceedingly dangerous and must be taken seriously and action must be taken to prevent that kind of attack. | ||
Eric, we know you've got to bounce. | ||
I'll have you back on next week to keep drilling down. | ||
In the meantime, if people want to follow you, where can they go to do that? | ||
I'm on X at Real Eric D. Prince. | ||
Eric, thank you so much for joining. | ||
Thanks for having me. | ||
Congressman Cory Mills and Congressman Eli Crane, I was saying before we started the show, I think this is the safest I've ever felt in the war room. | ||
No, no shade to producer Cameron, but you guys were present. | ||
You guys watched the hearing today. | ||
I saw reporting from Punchbowl that you guys made remarks and that Democrats weren't too happy about that. | ||
If you can walk us through, Congressman Crane, why you decided to go to the hearing today and similar question to Eric, what your sort of top line assessment is. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, thank you, Natalie. | |
It's great to be back on the war room. | ||
First, I want to start by saying thank you to the chairman for having us, inviting us to come testify before the committee today. | ||
I also want to say thank you to Clay Higgins and others. | ||
Clay's done a great job on this investigation. | ||
He's very thorough. | ||
I've had many conversations with him. | ||
He has a former law enforcement background. | ||
And he's very tough and smart. | ||
So I do think that he's one of the guys that is going to continue to work really hard to get to the bottom of this. | ||
My top line takeaways from this hearing and, you know, testifying is something that I believe I said on your show a week or two ago. | ||
And that is that for me, the most alarming thing, Natalie, is that so far the two individuals that have tried to assassinate the president, whether they were working by themselves or whether they were working in coordination with Other groups or nation states is that neither of them were professionals and that concerns me for obvious reasons And I think it sends a signal Not only to you know the Secret Service, but to foreign actors around the world That if you if they send somebody that is professional or they send a hit team that is professional There's a very high likelihood of success and that would be catastrophic Not only for our movement for this but for this country. | ||
I Yeah, whether it's the botched withdrawal in Afghanistan, inviting, I think, more failures, showing signs of weakness, what happened in Butler, certainly invited more people to take their shot, no pun intended, at President Trump. | ||
We saw that unfolding in West Palm Beach. | ||
Congressman Mills, I'm curious, your kind of top line assessment on today's hearing, and if you think we need to, A, hold more hearings, but if also some of the fundamental questions have still not been addressed. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, look, I mean, for me, the top line was addressing what the cultural issues are within the Secret Service itself as a failure. | |
You know, I pointed out three critical categories. | ||
One is just overall poor leadership. | ||
If you go back to what Dan Bongino said in the past when we asked, does he feel safer now with Roe and that Cheadle is out, he made it very clear he doesn't feel any safer. | ||
And in fact, he feels less safe than before. | ||
You know, you look at DEI as a prioritization, as opposed to meritocracy and being ready. | ||
But you're also talking about secret service doctrine, whereby they kind of have this tailor, one-size-fits-all approach to security. | ||
They say, well, as a former president, you get X amount of assets and resources. | ||
That needs to be changed to looking at threat analysis, putting together a risk management and saying, OK, here's what we need to mitigate the existing threats. | ||
You know, to Eli's point, and he's exactly right, I'm more worried about the fact that if we would have had a 6-7-8 man Hezbollah team that would have been at that gate right there a hundred yards direct line of sight in Butler PL on July 13th with semi-automatics you know assault rifles or any type of actual like broke down you know carbine | ||
I think we have a different outcome here. | ||
If you have the risk of not only Iran, and I know a lot of people were talking about it, but you know, they just posted a video, the Ayatollah did himself, of essentially a kind of cartoon-like simulation of them looking down at Mar-a-Lago, the president on the golf course, and utilizing a drone as an ability to try and go ahead. | ||
And this is something Eli and I talked about, is the threat isn't just the independent shooter within that thousand-yard perimeter that we want to basically kick out, and there's been two failures on perimeters As far as how they've cleared it, but even the utilization of a swarm drone capability, you saw what's happening in Russia, Ukraine with the utilization of drones to attack and utilize kamikaze drones. | ||
That's a real thing where someone could go to a local Walmart or a Target or whatever, purchase a drone that's $120, $200, arm it out, and then utilize that with a point-initiated base detonator to go ahead and impact an area. | ||
There's a lot of things we need to look at. | ||
I believe in what Eric just talked about, and Eli and I said it in the hearing, which is until we can correct the cultural issue, because this isn't like DC's usual way of finding a solution, which is to throw more money at a problem. | ||
This is about changing the culture to where we can actually understand a change of doctrine, a change to get rid of DEI, and a guaranteed leadership that doesn't have a political agenda. | ||
So that we can ensure it. | ||
And until then, bring in a private team of ex-soft guys who can be his internal circle that know that they're there to actually protect the president. | ||
And I think that until we can get anything done, that should be the first step for the president is to get an internal team of soft operators who can actually keep him safe. | ||
I'm curious what your thoughts are. | ||
Obviously, the Iran threat seems to be what the mainstream media is running with. | ||
I have to say, I'm a little skeptical with this coming out of ODNI, the FBI, the intel community, because I would almost argue that the American intel community who's trying to pawn it off onto Iran, they're probably more likely to be behind. | ||
That might be a hot take, but I stand by it. | ||
But do you think that these threats are, again, not that they're mutually exclusive, but do you think that they're primarily emanating from overseas? | ||
Do you think it's a homegrown problem, too? | ||
What do you make of the Iran threat, the assassination team narrative? | ||
unidentified
|
Well, look, I think the Iran threat is real. | |
I mean, you have to take about the fact that he did take out Qasem Soleimani, who is the Quds Force commander, one of the most, probably the closest to the Ayatollah and the regime of anyone, the spymaster himself, who was responsible for over 600 deaths of American forces, as well as for thousands of others that he had maimed in the IEDs and EFPs and other ways that he's attacked. | ||
You also have to look at Iraq, who has ramped up their rhetoric as well when he eliminated Abu Maryam Mohandas, who was one of the heads of the entire Shia Iranian-backed militia groups there. | ||
Now you've got what's going on between Israel and Hezbollah, knowing that Iran does pose a great threat, and they've actually made the most threats to the president directly. | ||
What I would also add, though, is that let's go look at the cartels on our open borders. | ||
I mean, you heard Eric talk about, and Eli and I track this, Eli sits on Homeland Security, I sit on the Foreign Affairs and Armed Services, but I also sit on the Subcommittee of Intelligence Special Operations. | ||
But our borders being open and the amount of guideways isn't just guideways as personnel, but also equipment and other things that are coming through. | ||
The threat of a MANPAD or any type of surface-to-air capability also poses a threat to the former president with regards to his transportation as a whole. | ||
And I can tell you, having gone out to West Palm and going out to different areas, there's many times that I've landed and I see the president's plane sitting there completely unsecured with no security around it. | ||
I mean, we have to take all these threats serious. | ||
And now you talk about the cartels. | ||
The cartels were making roughly $500 million in revenue in 2018. | ||
Fast forward to 2021, where Joe Biden is the continual running, you know, employee of the month. | ||
He's essentially made on 13 billion dollars a year in revenue on average. | ||
Increase in human sex trafficking, increasing in drug and fentanyl overdoses, increase in equipment and other types of terrorist activities coming across the border, not just our southern border but our northern border as well in Canada. | ||
And so I think that we also have to look at the fact with President Trump coming in declaring the largest deportation, with him shutting the border and stopping their revenue flow, that impacts them enough that they would want to take action. | ||
So while he's the most loved president, he's also one of the most hated and we have to make sure that he is safe and he's able to basically go ahead and on November 5th take the reins and be able to turn the country around. | ||
I mean, illegal votes aside, I think one of the other boons of having an open border is that you can basically lay the pretext for allowing, you know, whether it's sleeper cells from the Chinese Communist Party, agents of Hezbollah, Hamas, you name it, quite literally be able to waltz into the United States because the Biden regime is, what is it, welding the floodgates open? | ||
Literally. | ||
But I'm just curious. | ||
I think this show has always sort of asked of the Biden regime, you know, are the failures that we see not just here but on the world stage, you know, are they result... are they intentional or is it... | ||
Incompetence. | ||
And I think that that question is sort of what this audience is really hungering to know when it comes to this assassination attempt. | ||
And I think when we're still trying to square that out, if Washington's consensus, so much so that I believe it was a, what, 435 to zero vote, right, to increase funding to the Secret Service, it doesn't really seem like we've hit the point where we can be certain that the Secret Service is up to task in defending President Trump. | ||
Do you think that that strategy is really the best way to keep him safe as a former Navy SEAL? | ||
What do you think? | ||
unidentified
|
I don't think it's the best way to keep him safe. | |
I think when you look at his defense and security, it has to be layered. | ||
But it's one of the reasons why today, in today's hearing, I talked about one of my recommendations is that the president beef up his private security team around him. | ||
Watchers watching the watchers, if you will. | ||
Individuals who are loyal to him and not some bureaucracy, you know, that sometimes has political bias or, you know, DEI issues. | ||
You know, there's a list of things that are obviously wrong with the Secret Service, but they can also plug holes that the Secret Service is leaving open and to make sure that the President isn't being led into You know, any vulnerable situations. | ||
And, you know, Eric Prince was talking before we came on about, you know, special operators who are actually active duty, you know, coming in to supplement. | ||
I have friends that were at SEAL Team 3 with me that, you know, at times worked on Obama's detail when he'd go to Hawaii or something like that. | ||
And so it's, there is a precedent for it. | ||
I think if we're, you know, gonna use it, now's the time to consider it just because of the failures of the Secret Service. | ||
I'm just curious, Congressman Mills, it seems like every investigative committee or task force, especially this Congress that they've set up, it has yet to produce results that even the most, I think, milquetoast of Republicans would define as accountability. | ||
So do you think that this audience, and I know you guys aren't a part of the task force and you've been critical of, you guys have held your own hearings, been doing your own investigations, But do you think that this specific task force will be anomalous in the sense that it's going to be able to deliver answers unlike, you know, weaponization or COVID or, you know, answers at least in a meaningful sense? | ||
Do you think that this task force has the guts to actually do it? | ||
unidentified
|
Well look, I can't say that definitively. | |
I'm obviously hopeful that they'll actually get answers and that's why Eli and I have come forward trying to support and help as much as we can with our expertise and also the information that we're getting. | ||
But I want to go back to what you talked about a moment ago about the Secret Service and whether or not you can determine whether or not it was an inside thing or not. | ||
The issue that we have is when you have these types of incidents, if we truly wanted to have gotten to the bottom of it, on July 14th, we'd have automatically started subpoenaing all the documentation, all the communications plans, we'd have been bringing people in to corroborate stories, you'd have put together a fact-fiction board, and you'd have determined exactly what took place. | ||
But we allowed so much time to pass, where we know, in my opinion, that the government's going to go ahead and memorialize documents. | ||
Oh, we did this on July 9th, 10th, 11th, which didn't exist prior. | ||
So now what you've done is that not only have you left a lot of room for speculation, but you've actually made it where so much time has passed that it is now indistinguishable between criminal negligence and purposeful intent. | ||
So now what I have to look at is that let's get as much of the facts and figures together for our report as possible, but let's focus on how do we prevent this in the future. | ||
I think that that's where I go back. | ||
Look, when President Karzai of Afghanistan was first elected in, we didn't supply him secret service to do his protection to ensure the safety of the president. | ||
We supplied him ex-special forces and also SEAL Team 6 who came out there to provide his protection. | ||
That should tell you a lot. | ||
Whenever, when we're trying to truly keep someone safe, that's the level in which we're willing to provide it to our foreign leaders that we want to keep safe, but yet we won't do that for our President of the United States. | ||
Again, this has been a big problem for me, where we either prioritize the borders of another nation before ourselves. | ||
We prioritize the criminal migrants over our veteran population. | ||
We prioritize the safety of a foreign leader over our presidential nominee. | ||
We have to start putting America first, and we have to start saying that if we would recommend this for another nation, why aren't we providing it to our own people? | ||
And so that's where I go back to, we have to change the culture of the Secret Service in order to try and, and that can't happen in the short term. | ||
So in the short term, I asked that he beef up his private security. | ||
I'm with Eli. | ||
I never would have actually approved that venue in Butler, PA to begin with. | ||
I don't think as much as I love the courage of the president, America needs the president to come back in to help save this Republic. | ||
And I don't think, I wouldn't recommend him doing another on October 5th or October 6th or whenever he determines, I wouldn't recommend him doing it again. | ||
Well, speaking of putting America last, don't worry, we're going to get to the new Ukraine aid package after the break, but I think it's also such a harsh juxtaposition when you look at how Pelosi essentially steamrolled on the first impeachment of Donald Trump, and you see he'll dragging, what was it, two, three months after July 13th to hold this hearing. | ||
I think it was within the first week that they even caught wind of this phone call that Pelosi gave her marching orders, but don't worry, Speaker Johnson, we're going to Get into you after the break. | ||
I'm just curious though, you think that moving forward, Congressman Crane, that should President Trump keep doing rallies and these public appearances if he only has these Secret Service details? | ||
unidentified
|
So this is something I talked about today, Natalie, and I did say that in my opening statement. | |
I do commend the president for his courage. | ||
I do commend him for wanting to continue to connect with the masses and people, and it's something that he does better than anybody else. | ||
But I did advise, and I strongly will continue to advise, that he doesn't do venues like the one in Butler, Pennsylvania, that have You know threat assessments all over the place and from trees to too many buildings windows to cover down on like there's another site in Pennsylvania near that some of the other local law enforcement officials were talking about where they had hosted Similar events in the past on an airport. | ||
There was a lot more lockdown and with this amount of threats against the president the teams that Matt gates was talking about last week from a The high-ranking DHS official that came and talked to him, you know, to the, you know, two assassination attempts that we've seen on him in two and a half months. | ||
I think he's got to be a lot more selective, and his campaign needs to be a lot more selective about where they hold these events. | ||
And Corey, before we jump to break, just give me a minute, your thoughts on the DOJ releasing that letter showing the $150,000 bounty on President, or sorry, not a letter, call to arms, $150,000 bounty on President Trump. | ||
unidentified
|
Look, again, I just keep saying that we need to be taking the threats and all these things very seriously. | |
And I think that we just kind of understate what type of risk that he's really taking when he's out there. | ||
And he doesn't have to do that. | ||
He does that because he loves this country. | ||
And I think that we should be, in return, doing everything we can to keep him safe. | ||
So let's take the threats seriously and let's give him the assets and resources that are going to allow him to continue what he's doing. | ||
You guys will stay through the block. | ||
I know you might have to bounce, so we'll... Yeah, I've got about five more minutes. | ||
Okay, well, we'll take what we can get. | ||
I know the audience loves you guys and really appreciates you guys working overtime, even though, like I said, you should have been on the task force to begin with. | ||
We'll be joined by Congressman Mills and Congressman Crane just for a little bit. | ||
After this short break, but in the meantime, Warren Boss, you gotta make sure you're checking out birchgold.com slash Bannon, getting the latest installment of the end of the dollar empire. | ||
I think gold is on track to have its highest return since the late 1970s, so I know for those of you who have been giving Philip Patrick a call over at Birchgold, you're probably pretty happy. | ||
While you're at it, you can also check out Public Square to support companies that won't cancel you for questioning the results not just of the 2020 election, but frankly, it's looking More and more likely that they're up to their same old tricks when it comes to 2024. | ||
We're gonna get into all things CR, the fate of Speaker Johnson, and how despite all that discussion about CR and Speaker Johnson caring so much about election integrity, yeah behind the scenes he was just orchestrating deals to make sure that Ukraine could still get 8 billion, yeah that's a billion with a b, More of your taxpayer dollars. | ||
And it's still not enough for Zelensky. | ||
Never will be. | ||
We'll be right back after this short break. | ||

War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Babb. | ||
You're back in the War Room. | ||
We're still joined by Congressman Eli Crane and Congressman Cory Mills. | ||
Congressman Crane, I know you got to bounce. | ||
You got a swanky DC event that you have to get to, but you were told you have five more minutes. | ||
So I'm going to ask you the hard questions now. | ||
We're all things CR, Speaker Johnson. | ||
I'm just curious, obviously he's pledged, though we've already sort of seen some cracks in the omnibus facade. | ||
Now it's going to be probably some minibuses. | ||
Has there been any proactive discussion already as to how you're going to avoid a December Christmastime omnibus or...? | ||
unidentified
|
Well, this goes back to what we were saying before the cameras were rolling, Natalie. | |
I have a tough time not being blackpilled up here and just believing that we're going to continue to see the same old, same old. | ||
Myself and Corey didn't vote for this last CR. | ||
I haven't voted for one yet. | ||
But this place does what it does. | ||
And it's unfortunate to watch. | ||
You know, it's unfortunate and it's It's really disturbing to constantly fight against it and feel like you're always losing. | ||
And I know the War Room Posse knows what I'm talking about. | ||
You know, I know they feel the same way. | ||
But I don't expect to see anything different up here than what, you know, has happened for the last couple decades up here. | ||
And that's run this government, fund this government by CRs and omnibuses. | ||
Can you tell the audience, though, what you were telling me before the camera started rolling? | ||
Because I know sometimes this audience can probably get a little black-pilled, too. | ||
But the calls actually work? | ||
unidentified
|
They do and I hope you guys understand this I've actually seen Not only frustrations, but I've seen almost fistfights break out with other members Because this show you know broke something that everybody thought was just gonna be swept under the rug you come back the next week and In conference and people are losing their minds because of the activism and by getting blown up at their offices, on their emails, on their social media for, you know, the continuation of the funding of this woke and radicalized government. | |
That's why they wanted to put Steve Bannon in jail. | ||
They thought they'd be able to jam through this CR. | ||
Sorry, CR plus SAVE Act. | ||
But there's another thing that they rammed through, again, successfully, and that had to do with Ukraine funding. | ||
And I don't think that this really got the due diligence it deserved, but behind the scenes I was reading the Reuters article on the new $8 billion aid package, which maybe we should just refer to that as the speaking fee. | ||
Zelensky hitting the campaign trail for Kamala Harris in a swing state known as Pennsylvania. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
But behind the scenes, if you can sort of walk the audience through how using the drawdown | ||
authority, essentially September 30th, the White House would have had to appropriate | ||
the outstanding, what was it, $5.6 billion in Ukraine aid pulling from U.S. stockpiles. | ||
But that because you guys didn't extend that deadline, I saw CNN trying to spin it as a | ||
win that you guys were actually being tough on Ukraine aid instead forcing the White House | ||
to just dole out $8 billion. | ||
Walk the audience through, again, more America Last emanating out of the Speaker Johnson office. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, again, you know, this is the typical thing where this administration and a lot of your neocon neolibs will essentially say, oh, but they're pulling from old U.S. | |
stock, which means that we're going to put more money into our defense companies to be able to build new U.S. | ||
stock for the armed forces. | ||
And it's this whole idea, it's the, you know, shiny new object, right? | ||
But I want to get back to the CR for a minute. | ||
And like Eli, you know, I've never voted for a single CR. | ||
I won't vote for a CR, an omnibus, a minibus, a short bus, whatever they want to call it at this point. | ||
But we have to understand where we're at from an economic perspective. | ||
I want to paint that picture as broadly. | ||
And you've done an amazing job, by the way, of calling out exactly what the responsibilities are of government, but also the irresponsible funding that's going on. | ||
You know, one of the first things that we did coming into 118th Congress is that we passed on the House floor that we were no longer an emergency pandemic. | ||
But we haven't modified the fact that we're still spending at emergency pandemic levels. | ||
You know, at $2.42 trillion a year, we should be at $1.477 trillion. | ||
If you go pre-2019 and you added the adjusted rate of inflation per year, we would only be at a $1.477 trillion spending level, which is why we supported things like Limit Save Grow that was actually at a cut of $1.471 trillion. | ||
These CRs not only add $6.3 billion in spending per day, But that's on top of the $3 billion in interest payments that's being made on this $35.6 trillion that we're at right now. | ||
That gives us a burn rate of $77,000 a second and some change. | ||
You know, I've gone through multiple times the idea that government overspending leads to deficit, which leads to printing of new dollars, which leads to demand destruction, which leads to bankruptcies. | ||
And then what happens? | ||
The federal government comes in, plusses up all the new money that's there to go back to government overspending and creating that vicious and perpetuating cycle of debt. | ||
And the nation simply can't take it. | ||
This is the first time in American history we're going to spend more on our interest payments than we will our entire national defense annual spending. | ||
And when you talk about places like Ukraine, where I've never voted for a single penny and I won't vote for a single penny going there, I think that our borders 900 miles away needs more attention than borders 9,000 miles away, especially when that should be the duties of the European Union. | ||
When you have people like Dan O'Sullivan, the EU sanctions chief, who's bragging about the fact that they have $190 billion in frozen Russian assets that they're making $3.5 billion in profit on, Why aren't we utilizing that funding? | ||
This is the thing that I want Americans, I know the War on Posse is all about it, and please, keep your calls, keep your grassroots. | ||
It does work. | ||
Like Eli said, I watch how this tears into the holes of these individuals who want to continue the DC song and dance of spending irresponsibility. | ||
Well, I'll tell you, the American people are greater than the DC greed. | ||
And I'm not going to continue it, but when it comes to Ukraine, The European Union, which I laugh, they should be the most at risk. | ||
If they're so worried about Russia overrunning Ukraine, then why aren't they all just pledging as much fund support and donations as they can? | ||
Then you got NATO, which stands for Now America Takes Over, who essentially doesn't even fund their 2% of GDP. | ||
You got Germany and Italy and France who claim that they're so at risk that yet they don't want to put 2% of their GDP. | ||
and then you got Germany who's actually supplying tanks that don't even work, | ||
but writing it off as an actual part of their GDP expenditure for NATO. | ||
And then you got places like the UN, useless nations, who continues to do nothing to be able to go forward. | ||
Look, it's such a big wartime effort, and yet everyone's looking at the pocketbooks of the | ||
American people to go ahead and fund it. | ||
And at 30, almost 36 trillion dollars, we don't have the capabilities to do this. | ||
We're drowning our middle class and eliminating. | ||
We're drowning the lower class and we're continuing to drive inflation and cost of goods, our fuel prices that we're continuing to attack like the Biden-Harris regime did when it comes to the Keystone XL pipeline. | ||
So the reality is this. | ||
I've had to watch single mothers and families go through a checkout line and you can tell whenever the teller rung it up that they had 280-something dollars. | ||
They started looking through on what do they need to put back on the shelves. | ||
It's time for America to start expecting the government to put things back on the shelves and fit within their budget. | ||
The same way as we have with the 73 Budget Act that we're continuing to be in violation of. | ||
12 Singaporean appropriation bills and prioritize America first. | ||
Strengthen our military. | ||
Get the Ohio-class submarines that we need. | ||
Get new refuelers like we're seeing right now with the problem of the U.S. | ||
naval ship. | ||
Big Horn, which is now run aground and can't actually help our, you know, fleet that's out in the waters. | ||
Why are we not paying attention to these things instead of Zelensky's political speech to get eight billion dollars? | ||
Look, I'm tired of it. | ||
Eli and I came here to make a change in D.C. | ||
It is making you black-pilled many times, but I want the war room posse and everyone to know that we're going to continue to fight whether you're in Florida's 7th District or you're anywhere within this union, this republic, because that's what we are. | ||
We're a republic under Article 4, Section 4. | ||
We're going to keep fighting for physical responsibility and change. | ||
And Eli, I know we've peer pressured you to stay long enough, so if the audience... That's why I drugged that on, so I made him sit through it. | ||
Sit through it! | ||
This is what the American people have to put up with. | ||
If people want to support the campaign, stay up to date with everything you're doing, I know you have some appearances coming up, I think out in Arizona with Carrie Lake, where can people go to do all that? | ||
unidentified
|
Thank you, Natalie. | |
Rep Eli Crane is a really good place to find me. | ||
Or Eli for Arizona dot com. | ||
Eli, thank you so much for joining us, and we're in posse while we let Congressman Crane leave. | ||
Just a programming note, you guys know what was it a week ago? | ||
He's got a swanky party to get to, it's all good. | ||
You guys know on this show, two weeks ago we threw down on Representative Mike Rogers of Alabama, that is of House Armed Services, and of course Congressman Mike Turner, who represents Springfield. | ||
Mike Rogers, of course, representing Sylacauga, Alabama, another town that's been overwhelmed with, you guessed it, Haitian migrants, part of the state-sponsored invasion. | ||
Well, we know Speaker Johnson didn't meet with Zelensky today, though I argued it's not actually a snub coming out of the Speaker Johnson office. | ||
It's actually the other way around, because Zelensky knows he doesn't have to meet with Speaker Johnson because Hakeem Jeffries controls him. | ||
unidentified
|
But you know who did meet with Zelensky? | |
Mike Turner and Mike Rogers. | ||
It's a little America Last if you ask me, as your districts are getting pummeled with migrants from, at least we know, Haiti, who knows where else? | ||
Flown in by the Biden regime that you guys are so desperate to fund. | ||
Oh yeah, the same DHS that's refusing to investigate assassination teams that are working to get President Trump. | ||
unidentified
|
You guys are busy meeting with Zelensky. | |
And I actually think one of the senators out of that group of the three musketeers, the three America's last musketeers, was actually advising Zelensky on how to best get more aid out of President Biden. | ||
And just a programming note, some humble advice from the war room to President Joe Biden, if you're the one who's actually meeting with Zelensky, if you're gonna go into a negotiation with Zelensky, maybe you shouldn't release $8 billion to him before you start negotiating with him. | ||
I guess maybe that's just how the Obama administration rolls on Iran, so might as well cross-apply it to Ukraine, too. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Well, Mike Turner, Mike Rogers, the best part? | ||
They didn't even have the nerve. | ||
unidentified
|
We'll go Old Testament. | |
They didn't even have the balls. | ||
To tell Zelensky, get off the campaign trail for Kamala Harris in Pennsylvania. | ||
For all of the meetings that he took on Capitol Hill today, not a single person raised it with him. | ||
That shows you who's running this town. | ||
And by the way, Speaker Johnson, for all the strongly worded letters that you want to put out, Right after what transpired in Pennsylvania, the best you can do, after helping negotiate $8 billion away to them, is write a letter demanding that the ambassador to the United States, I don't even know what that chick's name is, that she needs to step down? | ||
It's the best you could do? | ||
You know, strongly worded letters don't do anything. | ||
If the Declaration of Independence had just stayed a strongly worded letter and there were no action on the other side of it, I'd probably be giving this rant in a British accent. | ||
So we're sick and tired of the strongly worded letters, Speaker Johnson. | ||
I know you guys love to sit back and say, oh, all this show does is cause chaos, which I would say, well, take chaos over unity. | ||
Because what the heck has unity ever gotten us? | ||
But here's a thought. | ||
The next time you want to get tough on Ukraine, here's the playbook. | ||
You don't write a silly letter saying, get rid of some figurehead irrelevant position. | ||
You say, hey White House, we're clawing back $6 billion that you haven't appropriated to Ukraine, and any other outstanding dollar will not be seeing the border of Ukraine. | ||
It'll be seeing the border of the United States of America. | ||
That's called America first. | ||
And by the way, America First doesn't mean omnibus or minibus or any form of bus. | ||
It means single-subject spending bills too. | ||
And I know I shouldn't even be speaking to Speaker Johnson because you're not actually in control of things. | ||
I should be addressing this to Hakeem Jeffries and Volodymyr Zelensky. | ||
But Speaker Johnson, the Founding Fathers would be ashamed of you and your lack of fight. | ||
And I hope somewhere in your biblical worldview, That, by the way, is underwritten and cosigned by the entirety of the Democratic Party as of the vote that transpired last night? | ||
You find the resolve to fight for the American people, not give us a Christmastime omnibus, secure this border, secure the election, or I think we need a motion to vacate. | ||
We're gonna get into the fate of Speaker Johnson so much more. | ||
Congressman Mills was nice enough to stay with us through that rant and through this final break. | ||
But Warren Posse, in the meantime, you gotta be checking out birchgold.com slash Bannon. | ||
Texting Bannon to 989898. | ||
And while you're at it, checking out My Patriot Supply in these perilous times. | ||
I don't think Speaker Johnson's gonna save you. | ||
You know, the government's only gonna help you if you're apparently a citizen of Ukraine. | ||
Right? | ||
Moving on that border where America last is showing speaker Johnson | ||
Here's your host Stephen K. Vance Welcome back to the war room | ||
Congressman Mills, I'm curious just to get your thoughts on what sort of the, whether it's, you know, inter-conference or just your thoughts in particular on the fate of Speaker Johnson, of course, is a broad reflection of the institution that is Washington, that is D.C. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, I mean, look, at the end of the day, D.C. | |
is really the issue, and I think I've made it really clear. | ||
We want to change what is a broken institution. | ||
I think that the popularity of Congress is roughly around 17 percent, which I think is very generous. | ||
I just think that we're at a point now, everyone knows what pros and cons are, right? | ||
Pro is progress, con is Congress. | ||
And we have to accept the fact that what we're doing is that we're moving in reverse. | ||
We have to get back to being, I've been a registered Republican my entire life, but what I really am is a constitutional conservative. | ||
I believe in those seven articles, 27 amendments. | ||
I believe it is our responsibilities under Article 1 to get 12 single point appropriation bills that doesn't just look at 27% of spending, but it looks at the entire 100%. | ||
I mean, imagine any business owner, if I told them, by the way, you're only going to look at 20 to 30% of your overall budget spreadsheet, not the rest of it. | ||
Don't worry about that. | ||
We have to treat The way that we spend is being good stewards of taxpayers funding the same way as what President Trump does and I did as a former business owner, where you run your business in a profitable way that puts your employees first, the way we put America first. | ||
And we have to understand that opening up mandatories, having the intestinal fortitude, having the political and moral courage, To open up mandatories where you know that the other side is going to attack you saying that you're trying to eliminate Social Security or Medicare, but what you're really doing is trying to protect, preserve, and actually better Social Security and Medicare. | ||
Like myself, I ended up co-sponsoring and supporting Thomas Massie's bill to eliminate the unconstitutional double taxation on Social Security that gets back to the American people. | ||
I co-sponsored the Save the Medicare Act on Beth Van Dyne to ensure that we can improve these things. | ||
Republicans don't do a good job of messaging. | ||
We own the facts, but we let the Democrats control the narrative. | ||
And this is no longer business as usual in D.C., and that's what guys like myself, Rep Crane, Representative Leslie Hunt, and many others are trying to do, is to come to D.C. | ||
and say, we're not going to continue to do this get-along-go-along. | ||
We're going to fight for the American people because it has to be people over party and people over politics. | ||
And so that's putting America first. | ||
That's what President Trump is continuing to do every single time. | ||
He's the only one who put out an agenda. | ||
When you look at Agenda 47, it's very clear on what he's trying to achieve. | ||
They keep trying to pin him to Project 25 and all this. | ||
Why don't you go to Agenda 47? | ||
Why don't you look at his 27 recent points when he talks about his policy outlines? | ||
Why don't we do the juxtaposition between where Biden-Harris's policies have gotten us and where we were under President Trump when it comes to economics. | ||
And we're not even thinking about the fact that in order for us to try and invert that GDP to national ratio, we have to get revenue up. | ||
And that's exactly what the tax reform plan did. | ||
You know, small businesses may not realize this or not, but there's a sunset clause on the tax reform that's going to sunset in 2025. | ||
That's going to take their corporate taxes from 21% up to 43%. | ||
That ends businesses. | ||
And now you're talking about in Q2 of 2024, where there were 6,200 businesses that filed bankruptcy. | ||
It's up 40% year after year. | ||
When you look at where we have been under the Biden-Harris administration. | ||
So, we have to get back to America First, and that starts here in Congress. | ||
And it's returning powers back to the individual states, and it's guaranteeing that America is allowed to wear America First properties. | ||
I think if Dave and Mir were sitting here, he'd be fact-checking you for a lot of what you just said. | ||
I'd be happy for him. | ||
But that means you're on the right side of history. | ||
Real quick, just give me a minute before you bounce on Secretary Blinken, the contempt charges. | ||
unidentified
|
Look, we've held the Secretary in contempt. | |
I have continued to support this as a result of him ignoring the dissent cables, which had over 20-plus diplomats who had signed warning him of the strategies that was going. | ||
The fact that they had intel reports that showed day-to-day the collapse of the provinces moving into the Kabul area, the actual planning of the attack, and even on August 25th of 2021 where it said the imminent planning is finished, and then on 20 August 26 obviously the death of 13 brave heroes and their gold star families. | ||
We have to understand that he's responsible for continuing to try and stall Wallace and try and prevent accountability. | ||
Look, responsibility, I'm sorry, it's my fault, mea culpa, that is not the same as accountability where no one has lost their job, no one has been downgraded in their rank, no one's had uniform code of military justice action. | ||
Americans are tired of the I'm sorry or I'm going to resign. | ||
We need accountability and so we're going to hold them in contempt and if not we're going to do inherent contempt. | ||
We know DOJ won't take it up, but I can't concern myself with what the Senate's going to do, what the DOJ, the Department of Injustice at that place is going to do. | ||
The House has to do their job. | ||
I'd rather fight and lose than not fight at all. | ||
Congressman, if people want to follow you, find out where you're going to be, campaign trail, all those kind of things, where can they go to do that? | ||
unidentified
|
So they can go to Rhett Mills Press on X or Corey Mills FL on X. It's the same thing on Truth. | |
And they can follow us at millsforflorida.com to try and continue to join our fight. | ||
Congressman, thank you so much for joining us. | ||
We'll be back on soon. | ||
Mike Lindell hit us with the latest. | ||
Well, I'm back in Minnesota, everybody, with the factory. | ||
The product that's breaking records here on the War Room is the MyPillow, the classic MyPillow, the ones that we've got back from the box store that cancels right as the trucks were ready a couple weeks ago. | ||
So we put them on sale for $14.88. | ||
And then the media attacked us for using 88 in the price, and that's all over the news. | ||
But you know what? | ||
We don't care if we keep getting attacked. | ||
What I did is I put all of the classic collection that was all in the retail stores, it's all on sale at wholesale prices. | ||

Mike Lindell, as always, thank you so much for joining us. | ||
I hope the Warren Posse calls. | ||
They might just get Mike Lindell on the other line. | ||
That's probably most mainstream media's journalist's worst nightmare. | ||
Warren Posse, thank you so much for hanging with me for this hour, which was certainly informative on the assassination and all things CR. | ||
Like I always say, the Democrats are trying to force the issue, force the question, not to be, how is President Trump doing in the polls, but will he make it? | ||
I know, let's keep the southern border open so assassination teams from foreign countries can keep entering the United States at record rates. | ||
Maybe we should just give them citizenship too so they could vote. |
