*throwing* *throwing* | |
I'm sorry. | ||
It is Friday, 6 December in the Year of the Lord, 2024 from the Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece in 1957, that is Paths of Glory. | ||
That's what we mean when we say fixed bayonets and up over the top. | ||
It can get a little grim sometimes. | ||
That was the French Army, I think in 1917, 1918. An incredibly powerful movie starring Kirk Douglas, Stanley Kubrick's first big film. | ||
Fixed Bayonets. | ||
This is what we're doing here to make sure that we have the back of President Trump and his nominees. | ||
It is time now to hunker down because we're in the kill zone politically. | ||
They're trying to kill Pete Hegseth, they're trying to kill Kash Patel, they're starting on Tulsi Gabbard, and they're lying in wait for RFK, all of the most important And kind of the cutting edge of the Trump revolution. | ||
They want to stop. | ||
Pete Hegseth was hanging by a string yesterday. | ||
All the reports, it's closing in. | ||
Pete Hegseth is about to go. | ||
It's imminent. | ||
The DeSantis team pushing hard. | ||
Yes, they're pushing hard. | ||
And remember how classy those guys are from the primary. | ||
Remember that? | ||
Real classy group in Tallinnasty. | ||
They were pushing hard on, you know, he's about to accept Secretary of Defense. | ||
Well, not so fast, shipmate. | ||
It's got to be really offered first. | ||
And it's only going to be offered when Pete Hexeth is no longer the nominee. | ||
And Pete Hexeth is not just the nominee. | ||
Pete Hexeth's got momentum. | ||
How do I know Pete Hexeth has momentum? | ||
It's quite simple. | ||
The newspaper, which gets a lot of stuff wrong, said he doesn't have momentum. | ||
And then this morning, early, we had President Trump come up with an incredible statement. | ||
And then Hugo Lowell just came up with an article. | ||
And Hugo Lowell at The Guardian is one of the best source people. | ||
Let me read you President Trump's first. | ||
This came across the tape a little while ago. | ||
And I quote, Pete Hegseth is doing very well. | ||
His support is strong and deep, much more so than the fake news would have you believe. | ||
He was a great student, Princeton, Harvard educated, with a military state of mind. | ||
He will be a fantastic, high energy, secretary of defense, one who leads with charisma and skill. | ||
Pete is a winner. | ||
There is nothing that can be done to change that. | ||
So that's President Trump right now. | ||
They're finally coming in with a support for Pete Heggs. | ||
Pete Heggs, I think, proved himself yesterday. | ||
President Trump sometimes has these tests to show me what you got. | ||
President Trump loves resilience. | ||
President Trump loves the ability of somebody to take a punch. | ||
Even if you hit the mat, get back up, dust yourself off, get back in the fight. | ||
He's always very nervous about people that have glass jaws. | ||
Pete Hegseth certainly does not have a glass jaw. | ||
Pete Hegseth is far from perfect, right? | ||
I think we've seen a couple things of Pete Hegseth far from perfect, but Pete Hegseth for this time and place. | ||
Pete Hexes may actually be the perfect Secretary of Defense. | ||
unidentified
|
Why? | |
I think you need a leader in a young person, a younger person, that is seeing combat. | ||
And as Pete said yesterday, we showed the military cross that Pete put up on his Twitter. | ||
It had the combat where they put the rifle down with the bayonet. | ||
With the helmet on top and next to the boots, and that's where guys pray and offer their thoughts and their prayers for their fallen comrades. | ||
Pete has seen all that. | ||
As he said yesterday on the tweet, Pete, let's put that up there. | ||
Thank you very much, Denver. | ||
Right there, you see what Pete put up yesterday in his Twitter. | ||
Very, very powerful. | ||
Pete Hecht has been there. | ||
It is very important... | ||
In this day and time, when you've got these fiascos in Ukraine, you've got these fiascos now in Syria, you see what's happening in the Red Sea. | ||
Of course, Israel's trying to drive Israel to Persians with their proxies in Hezbollah and Lebanon and Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood are trying to drive Israel back into the sea. | ||
I think it's very helpful to have a young person, a younger person that has combat experience that's had to see those fights. | ||
Right there is the reality of Pete Hegseth's time before deployed in the military. | ||
Okay? | ||
We've been in Iraq. | ||
We were in Iraq and Afghanistan for, what, 20 years? | ||
That's what this generation remembers, and that's why Pete Hegseth, I think, will be such a terrific Secretary of Defense. | ||
Certainly, Pete Hegseth has not managed a massive organization. | ||
I mean, how many people have? | ||
It's very rare. | ||
And we've also had a ton of like congressmen with no real managerial experience, guys like Les Aspen and others that had no managerial experience whatsoever go over and take over SecDef and did, you know, okay. | ||
What they want, what the military industrial complex wants is a yes man. | ||
They want somebody that can go over there and just rubber stamp everything that's going on. | ||
We know that if you take the DOGE process and the appropriations process and all that, what's trying to happen to deconstruct the administrative state and to take on the deep state, there's going to have to be some reorganization. | ||
I believe the defense budget has to be cut and not increased. | ||
I can make a quite succinct argument for that. | ||
That we need to cut the defense budget. | ||
The defense budget, I think, is out of control. | ||
We can no longer. | ||
And part of that is the programming part. | ||
We don't need to be everywhere doing everything. | ||
We need to concentrate on where the enemies of the United States are, like in Beijing. | ||
Right? | ||
In Beijing. | ||
The KGB in Moscow, a bad set of actors. | ||
A bad set of actors. | ||
And of course, Tucker just did a really interesting interview with Lavrov, the foreign minister. | ||
And brother, he is a flat-out gangster. | ||
And you always have to watch those guys, but he makes the point. | ||
It looks like the West, and particularly certain elements of the United States, are trying to instigate A third world war, and I mean a shooting war, that nobody wants to get into. | ||
And certainly people here in the United States do not want to get into a shooting war in the Eurasian landmass in Ukraine. | ||
Of course, Biden poll out this morning. | ||
You've got to give the Warren Posse a huge shout-out. | ||
Today, Biden poll, worst president in modern times. | ||
That's saying something, because you've had Jimmy Carter and George Bush. | ||
You've had George Bush, 43. You had 43 and you had Carter, right? | ||
Of course, you had Nixon, who was impeached and then left the White House. | ||
You had Clinton. | ||
You had a rogues guy, the Obama guy. | ||
Right, some real buttes. | ||
Biden tops it off, new poll out showing he's the worst, lowest rated president of modern times. | ||
And this started with this audience. | ||
Remember in January 21? | ||
When what the political director of CNN says, I'm going to... | ||
It's like Biden's arms. | ||
Remember the little lights they had on the reflecting pool on the night before the inauguration? | ||
And he goes, oh, it's like the arms. | ||
It's like Joe Biden's arms hugging America. | ||
Remember that phony? | ||
That guy still has a job, by the way. | ||
It's one of the reasons CNN always wrong. | ||
CNN always wrong. | ||
unidentified
|
The... | |
Hugging America. | ||
Because we said at the time he was illegitimate because they stole the 2020 election and we're never going to get off that. | ||
And we pounded the illegitimate Biden regime, the illegitimate Biden regime, the illegitimate Biden regime. | ||
Just hammer it, hammer it, hammer it. | ||
Now, I think it's over 60% of Republicans thinks he stole the 2020 election, right? | ||
Believe that. | ||
As we showed more data and more information, just pounded he was illegitimate over and over again in this audience taking the lead on that. | ||
It shows you the power of just standing in the breach and being relentless and continue to hammer it. | ||
Of course, Joe Biden over there at the White House, what are they doing? | ||
How they're spending their time besides trying to instigate a shooting war in Ukraine by shipping more weapons over there and trying to get $25 billion aid packages we can't afford. | ||
And at the same time, we got Todd Benzman is down in Mexico City. | ||
We're going to try to get Todd on later. | ||
What they're doing is instigating more folks to come across the southern border so they can get more illegal aliens. | ||
We have a bigger problem to do on the deportations. | ||
What do they spend their time on? | ||
Wait for it. | ||
Preemptive blanket preemptive pardons. | ||
What is a blanket preemptive pardon? | ||
I don't know. | ||
I'm not so sure it's constitutional. | ||
I'm sure the Supreme Court will have to decide. | ||
We've so rattled these people. | ||
We've so rattled them. | ||
They know their crimes and they're so rattled because finally somebody in opposition to them is saying, hey, we're coming after you and we're not going to stop. | ||
We're not going to stop. | ||
We're going to be relentless. | ||
We're going to unearth your crimes. | ||
We're going to investigate, adjudicate, put you on trial, and then incarcerate. | ||
You're going to go broke. | ||
You're going to spend all your money. | ||
You're going to be worried nonstop. | ||
Am I going to prison? | ||
Andrew Weissman, the entire crowd. | ||
We're going to get all the connective tissues of the text messages, all of it. | ||
And the vast criminal conspiracy, not simply against President Trump, but what you did to the life movement, the parents movement. | ||
There's so much. | ||
It's a vertical that will go quite deep. | ||
You don't think they're nervous? | ||
Look at all the articles, New York Times, and now they've added Jack Smith. | ||
They got Cheney, Fauci, Cheney for her corrupt committee, of which I said, hey, I don't care if I go to prison. | ||
I'll never concur that committee's legit, and I'll never concur with them, and I'll never bend the knee that President Trump didn't execute privilege and separation of power. | ||
Screw you. | ||
Hey, and I came out of prison empowered, and you were broke. | ||
You're broke, Nancy Pelosi. | ||
You were broken by the American people. | ||
And I called it back in late August and September when I put out that statement from Danbury that the politics of joy was not selling. | ||
And now it's all the politics of joy. | ||
We broke you. | ||
And now you're going to pay for what you did to the American people. | ||
This has nothing to do with President Trump. | ||
It has nothing to do with Steve Bannon. | ||
It's not vengeance. | ||
It's not retribution. | ||
It is justice and the administration of justice. | ||
We can never, ever, ever, ever, ever allow to happen what happened in the four years of your illegitimate regime. | ||
And the American people are ready to kick you into the dustbin of history. | ||
So now we have to take it to its logical conclusion. | ||
You can't stop. | ||
This is one of the reasons American people are so frustrated. | ||
Other good news, as we do with the complexity of what's going to happen starting in January, right now it's the border first. | ||
Yesterday we got kind of an announcement from both Johnson and Thune through unofficial channels in the reconciliation process, which is kind of like, you know, the way they have to get through and get around the filibuster. | ||
It's going to be the border and deportations and all of that first to set up that structure and to get it on the books and to go with it. | ||
Executive orders and whatever laws have to be passed, plus budgetary methods. | ||
That's going first, which is something we've argued about. | ||
You've got to show a commitment. | ||
President Trump has run on this now twice. | ||
You've got to close the deal. | ||
And then they're going to do taxes. | ||
And why is that? | ||
Trust me, they're trying to finagle up there every possible way To make sure the wealthy get taken care of. | ||
No, it can't happen. | ||
These have to be populist tax cuts. | ||
The burden of turning this around, and you just saw in France, the fall of the government right here, the New York Times, not happy about this. | ||
New York Times saying, Le Pen is holding France hostage. | ||
What she's doing is trying to stand up for the working people over there, as any populist nationalist will do. | ||
You can't let the wealthy feed at the trough. | ||
You cannot let that happen. | ||
Populist taxes. | ||
Here's the good news. | ||
They've kicked that off until later in the spring. | ||
That'll be number two. | ||
First will be immigration, the border, and deportations. | ||
We're in posse. | ||
That's a victory. | ||
Cash is getting traction. | ||
Hex says fight in another day, lives to fight another day. | ||
Julie Kelly's going to join me next. | ||
We've got Joe Allen about this mystery in New York. | ||
All next. | ||
unidentified
|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Vann. | |
Okay, if you want to keep up with my constant thinking, right, the monster of the id, always go together. | ||
That's why I put myself up first. | ||
I want to thank Grace and Mo and others that put it out on other social media platforms. | ||
Hugo Lowell. | ||
Now, who is Hugo Lowell? | ||
Hugo Lowell has been a reporter. | ||
He's been around the D.C. scene for many, many years in New York. | ||
Just a terrific reporter. | ||
You see him on MSNBC a lot of times. | ||
Now, politically, is he in line with us? | ||
The answer is no. | ||
He's a solid reporter, works for The Guardian. | ||
And here's what I like about Hugo. | ||
He goes and gets the facts. | ||
When you see a story from him, it's normally well-reported, well-sourced. | ||
Headline, The Guardian. | ||
Trump aides say Pete Hegseth still has a chance to be confirmed as defense head. | ||
Subtitle, Hegseth's nomination team reportedly says that they haven't yet hit three no-votes despite... | ||
Slew of allegations, and he goes through it. | ||
People are saying Joni Ernst is the key. | ||
Senator Ernst just got to understand, I mean, you got to get with the program here, right? | ||
Got to get with the program. | ||
And look, I don't agree with Pete Hexas on this thing. | ||
You know, Mo went to West Point. | ||
She was 101st Airborne deployed to Iraq. | ||
I've always thought that, hey, in society, modern society we have today, maybe in the Victorian era is different. | ||
Maybe in the World War II was different. | ||
But today we live in a different world. | ||
I've never had any problem with a different world. | ||
It's an all-volunteer force. | ||
Hey, people volunteer. | ||
If women want to volunteer and women are suited for certain roles and can physically and emotionally handle certain roles, which I think they've proven at least to a certain degree and in certain roles they can. | ||
And, you know, if you look at today's battlefield, particularly when you talk about some of the wars in the Middle East and other places where it's just not front lines, You know, these civic affairs battalions, these medical battalions, these logistic battalions, or these brigades, you know, you're all over, you're essentially in combat anyway. | ||
Maybe it's not, maybe it's not, you don't have a, you're not in infantry or artillery or such, but you're in something that of a logistic support or civics affairs or medical that puts you in the middle of it. | ||
So I, and Pete doesn't agree with that. | ||
That's fine. | ||
I don't happen to think that Secretary of Defense I think what Pete stands for, the kind of warrior spirit, and even a little warrior spirit that maybe is a tad over the top. | ||
I think that's what we need now. | ||
After 20 years of kind of just slugging it through with these great heroes at the working level that had just been so abused by, let's be frank, field great officers that awoke that have become politicians, political generals, political... | ||
They have to be political under Bush and Obama, and President Trump wasn't able to wring it out of the system because it's going to take a while. | ||
He's going to wring it out of the system this time, and Pete Hexas is going to be the tip of the spear to do it. | ||
Here's the key thing. | ||
Make sure you either download Bill Blaster or just call your senator. | ||
Call your senator at 202-224-3121. | ||
Make sure they understand that you've got Pete Hicks' back. | ||
This show and Charlie Kirk and a couple of Real America's Voice with Posobiec really appreciate the fact that the people here threw down hard and started to wake people up to say, hey, look, you know, and particularly, you know, I'm just not a Ron DeSantis fan. | ||
I think he's done a good job as governor. | ||
I think he's a very good governor. | ||
But, you know, in particular, I don't – the typical DeSantis team, you know, my phone's blown up yesterday. | ||
His team is pushing it. | ||
It's going to be imminent. | ||
Imminent. | ||
Putting pressure on old Pete. | ||
Pete's out there hammering, and they're up there in people's ear. | ||
Imminent. | ||
What you're going to get with DeSantis – and this is what I'm just telling you – what you're going to get is that same crowd that was back in the primary, and just remember how they acted. | ||
We sat there and said, hey, this is Trump's deal. | ||
They stole the 2020. Trump is going to come back. | ||
Trump is going to win. | ||
Don't get in the way. | ||
Let's not waste money. | ||
Let's not waste time. | ||
Let's be very focused. | ||
This opportunity cost. | ||
No. | ||
They wouldn't listen. | ||
They wouldn't listen. | ||
And I had to be blunt. | ||
You know, Ron DeSantis is not going to be president of the United States. | ||
Full stop. | ||
I know people around DeSantis camp, and particularly all those wealthy people that wrote that $400 million of money, I told them, you might as well take it out in the front yard and put it in a wheelbarrow and set it on fire. | ||
Set it on fire. | ||
Because it just, he's a solid guy. | ||
He does not have the right stuff. | ||
And so now, you know, he's pushing, no, I'm imminent to be Secretary of Defense. | ||
It's poisonous. | ||
It's poisonous. | ||
So Pete Hex has got his back. | ||
President Trump came out today and said, hey, Pete's fighting and let Pete fight on. | ||
And we're a big believer in that. | ||
Here's one of the reasons we're a believer. | ||
If you show weakness on these things, they're going to try to pick. | ||
And cash has got traction. | ||
Cornyn's out there and Hugh Hewitt, maybe we'll play that in a little while. | ||
He's saying, hey, cash is going to get confirmed. | ||
And Cash right now, behind the scenes, people are saying, hey, Cash Patel is going to get confirmed. | ||
So that's gone. | ||
They're all in shock, right? | ||
I mean, they're going to come back. | ||
It's a long way from confirmation. | ||
So they're still coming. | ||
They're still coming. | ||
But they're all, you know, Tulsi right now, they're basically accusing Tulsi of being a Russian asset. | ||
A woman who put herself in harm's way. | ||
This is how they think. | ||
This is how they think. | ||
She put herself in harm's way because she speaks truth to power, particularly in situations like Syria. | ||
Right? | ||
She speaks truth to power. | ||
They're trying to destroy her. | ||
Here's a patriot that's dedicated her life to her country. | ||
And she doesn't agree with us on everything on the political side. | ||
Hey, in this coalition we put together, it's not going to be perfect. | ||
People are not going to agree on everything. | ||
Let's just understand that. | ||
Here's what we do agree on, that we've got to take the country back from the globalists. | ||
We have to take the country back from the deep state, the administrative state, the oligarchs on Wall Street in the Silicon Valley. | ||
You have to do it. | ||
Today, Politico leads with a story, The End of the American Century by Zeitz, who's a smart guy. | ||
He's written a couple of good books about Lincoln. | ||
The End of the American Century, and I kind of put up on Getter, you'll see it right now, a little introduction to his article, exactly what happened during the quote-unquote American century to take our sovereignty away and destroy the American working class and middle class and lose our sovereignty at the same time to these globalist institutions. | ||
That's the article right there. | ||
In Politico, I'll talk more about that. | ||
Throughout the day and tomorrow, I'm going to break it all down to you, the post-war international rules-based order. | ||
Remember, this is the fetish. | ||
This is a fetish for the globalists. | ||
Remember, Mattis opened a meeting one time with the president. | ||
We had over at the tank, it's called the historic gathering spot over the Pentagon, where they really fought World War II out of making a big presentation. | ||
And General Mattis starts off, the post-war international rules-based order is the greatest gift of the greatest generation. | ||
That was his big line. | ||
Not so smart. | ||
Had not really thought it through. | ||
Just more rhetoric. | ||
I had to break that down for him and say, I don't think you thought about this. | ||
Trade deals, capital markets, upside down. | ||
We also underwrite. | ||
We've turned these people into protectorates. | ||
Western Europe and NATO is a protectorate of the United States. | ||
The Gulf Emirates and Israel in the Middle East are protectorates of the United States. | ||
Around the South China Sea are protectorates of the United States and up in Northwest. | ||
Now, we want strong allies. | ||
It's very important that we're in, I think, we're in alliances, strong alliances, but the folks there have got to also believe in the program enough that they want to step up to the plate. | ||
And stepping up to the plate means, hey, wait for it, they write a check. | ||
That we're not underwriting the wealthy in those areas of the world, which we are doing now, because they're not coming up with policies to share the burden, right? | ||
They're making us do the entire thing, and also with manpower. | ||
Also with manpower. | ||
We never meant to be an empire. | ||
The American century devolved into an American empire, which we never intended, and the founders of this nation... | ||
The framers of our Constitution never intended. | ||
Julie Kelly joins us. | ||
I'll tell you what I'm going to do. | ||
I'm going to play a cold open for you, Julie, in the next block. | ||
But I want to bring you in. | ||
Last night you sent me in the middle of the night, the New York Times. | ||
They're burning the midnight oil over at the White House, Julie Kelly, and they're not burning it on anything he can do to help the American people going out the door. | ||
All the rats are over there, and they're burning it, looking through the Constitution and the law books to say, how can they get blanket, preemptive pardons for Liz Cheney, Tony Fauci, you know, shifty shift. | ||
They threw in your favorite. | ||
Just as a hat tip to Julie coming on The War Room, they threw in Jack Smith last night, late in the evening. | ||
Julie, you're first taking this. | ||
Give me a minute or so before we go to break. | ||
What do you got for us, girl? | ||
I mean, it's like your 21st birthday every single day. | ||
I can't believe the news keeps getting better, but it does. | ||
So now reports that Jack Smith and his team are lawyering up CNN reporting that white shoe law firms are getting contacted by the special counsel's office. | ||
Seeking representation in advance of investigations and potentially criminal charges brought against the special counsel and his team of thugs. | ||
And we will name names after we get back. | ||
I don't want to interrupt our rogues gallery of naming names here. | ||
But there's also an interesting twist. | ||
They are looking for pro bono representation or development of legal funds like non-profits. | ||
So they don't have to pay their own lawyer fees. | ||
Nope. | ||
Nope. | ||
Those aren't the new rules. | ||
Sorry. | ||
Yeah, no. | ||
We'll be all over that. | ||
We'll be all over these law firms. | ||
Even if they get retained, we're going to identify all your clients and we're going to let MAGA know exactly what's happening here. | ||
Yeah, just like you guys did. | ||
Just like President Trump couldn't get representation for about a year if Boris Epstein hadn't stepped in and just pulled a rabbit out of the head and done magnificent work. | ||
People so often. | ||
I had law firms that I had used for years that said, hey, we can't do it. | ||
We're getting too much pressure. | ||
You can't represent any of the Trump people. | ||
That President Trump and people close to him can't be represented. | ||
Okay, what's good for the goose is good for the gander folks. | ||
Don't think these big law firms, hey, you can run, but you're not going to be able to hide. | ||
And your clients, we're going to out your clients. | ||
These people are criminals. | ||
Jack Smith's a criminal. | ||
And sorry, not sorry, that now they understand the heat that's going to be applied to them. | ||
That's why in the waning days of the worst presidency in modern history, I didn't say it. | ||
The polling company over the Daily Mail said it. | ||
I said they're illegitimate, right? | ||
They're saying they're the worst. | ||
Of course they're the worst, because they're illegitimate. | ||
We're going to make sure we identify, we're going to name names, we're going to make these people famous, and then we're going to make them infamous. | ||
Short commercial break. | ||
Birchgold.com. | ||
We've got another whole segment. | ||
You see this right here? | ||
What happened in France and brought down that government. | ||
You know what brought down that government? | ||
A concept that came out of France called Modern Monetary Theory. | ||
We're going to make you the smartest people in the neighborhood because we are going to come out with a big analysis of that just for you in a couple of weeks. | ||

Back in a moment. | ||
He'll also have been pressing Mr. Biden to do what he can to protect targets of Mr. Trump. | ||
Among them, Congressman Jim Clyburn of South Carolina, one of the president's closest allies, who urged the White House to consider preemptive pardons shortly after Mr. Trump's election last month and likewise recommended that the president pardon his son, Hunter. | ||
Congressman Clyburn telling the paper, I think there are a lot of people who are coming into this next administration who are telling us who they are. | ||
I've seen Kash Patel saying who he's going after, and so why should we not believe them? | ||
But as White House officials weigh the matter... | ||
They are concerned that such a move would fuel the impression spread in conservative media that the recipients actually had done something wrong. | ||
The Times goes on. | ||
At least some of those who would be obvious candidates for such pardons have said privately they would not want one because of such an implication. | ||
unidentified
|
In fact, I've run into, you know, in Washington this week, a couple of people who are on that Kash Patel enemies list that's the appendix of 60 different names of what he calls deep state, quote unquote, executive branch people that he put in his last book and, you know, which is entitled Government Gangsters and, you know, is an extraordinary document to exist for a prospective head of the FBI. And so there's a real concern. | |
I think the threat To these folks, and potentially, by the way, to members of the press, is very real. | ||
I think there are numerous ways in which, if you're determined to use the tools of the government, including the vast powers in the FBI, you could really go after people, you know, and impugn their name, you know, use the There are numerous ways. | ||
So I think the threat is real. | ||
But, you know, at least a couple of people on this enemies list that I've run into were very adamant. | ||
I've done nothing wrong. | ||
I don't want a pardon. | ||
I don't need a pardon. | ||
You know, I don't... | ||
Talk to people. | ||
They're not leaving the country. | ||
This is their country. | ||
They don't, you know, think that they've done anything wrong and they think that, you know, they need to stand and fight if that's what it comes to. | ||
So I don't know if the Biden administration, if the president will follow through on this or not. | ||
This may be a way of floating the idea out there to see what the reaction would be from the people who are on this list. | ||
If they don't want the pardon, then my guess is they're not going to have an embarrassing public You know, argument over, no, I won't accept it. | ||
Okay, welcome back. | ||
Julie Kelly joins us right there. | ||
I like the fighting spirit of the people over there saying, I didn't do anything wrong. | ||
I don't want to pardon. | ||
unidentified
|
Fine. | |
Good on you. | ||
Good on you. | ||
We agree with that. | ||
But let me be blunt to the Biden regime. | ||
We dare you to give blanket preemptive pardons to this group of criminals that is your administration. | ||
We dare you. | ||
Go ahead. | ||
Try it. | ||
Do it. | ||
We want to bury the Democratic Party, and this will bury the Democratic Party. | ||
So we dare you to take all those criminals that you've had terrorizing people in this country and terrorizing this nation. | ||
We dare you to give them blanket preemptive pardons. | ||
Julie Kelly, let's name some names. | ||
Let's have some fun here as we identify very serious work, as we identify who the culprits are and what they're thinking of doing right now, ma'am. | ||
Well, here's an interesting question, and maybe Mike Davis or someone can answer that. | ||
If attorneys receive pardons hinting that they, suggesting that they committed some sort of a crime, shouldn't they be disbarred? | ||
I mean, how can you have a Jack Smith? | ||
Okay, let's name names. | ||
Jack Smith, special counsel. | ||
His team in Florida, Jay Brett, David Harbach, And James Pierce, who also was a J6 prosecutor. | ||
So let's stop right there. | ||
Hang on. | ||
Let's stop right there. | ||
What is your beef against Jack Smith and Jay Bratt, who's one of the gang leaders down there, and the other attorneys? | ||
What is your beef? | ||
What do you think they're thinking about giving a blank and pardon for, but if Julie Kelly could make a recommendation to either a special counsel that gets set up or the Justice Department after Pam Bondi and the team's over there, what would you say? | ||
You've covered this wall-to-wall. | ||
What should happen here? | ||
Well, I would begin with Jack Smith abusing the grand jury process by conducting the entire investigation into the so-called classified documents case. | ||
In Washington, D.C. The alleged crime, Steve, happened in southern Florida. | ||
This was after Donald Trump left the White House. | ||
They said he took those documents. | ||
The indictment itself starts on January 21st of 2021. All of the alleged criminal activity, harboring the documents, obstructing justice, etc., allegedly happened at Mar-a-Lago. | ||
But instead of conducting the investigation in the proper jurisdiction, Southern Florida, knowing that he would not get the rubber stamp that he got in Washington, D.C. from then Chief Judge Beryl Howell, Jeff Smith conducted the entire investigation there, getting the rubber stamp from Beryl Howell, getting any subpoena that he wanted, compelling testimony even from Donald Trump's attorney, Evan Corcoran. | ||
Under claims of, it's called the crime fraud exception. | ||
Jeff Smith claiming that his attorney was in the process of committing a crime and therefore attorney-client privilege should have been pierced. | ||
Which of course, Farrell Howell happily did. | ||
Forced Evan Corcoran to testify and turn over all of his records communications with the former president. | ||
Absolutely gallant. | ||
Never would have happened in southern Florida. | ||
Never would have gotten a sign-off on that sort of a subpoena. | ||
Do you think the judges ought to be rolled up in this too? | ||
The judges have to be investigated? | ||
Federal judges need to be investigated? | ||
Yes. | ||
Beryl Howell, as you know, the Obama appointee, she is a flagrant. | ||
She's unabashed about her contempt for Donald Trump. | ||
And his supporters. | ||
She oversaw as the chief judge the Mueller investigation gave Robert Mueller and that special counsel whatever they wanted. | ||
Then along comes the DOJ investigation turned over to Jack Smith in November of 2022. She continues to give them whatever they want. | ||
Not only that, not only signing off on piercing attorney-client privilege, she also signed off on Jack Smith's subpoena to get all of Donald Trump's Twitter data. | ||
And Twitter, right after Elon Musk bought it, fought not just that, but fought a nondisclosure order that Beryl Howell also entered prohibiting X or Twitter from telling their customer, Donald Trump, that they were under a search warrant to get all of his Twitter files, to get all of his data, everything, even deleted tweets, Draft tweets, who liked his tweets, who he retweeted. | ||
I mean, the entire file was turned over to Jack Smith with the imprimatur of Beryl Howell. | ||
Furthermore, she fined Elon Musk $350,000 for about a 50-hour delay in producing the Twitter files, claiming that he was trying to obstruct the investigation. | ||
And then said to Twitter's lawyers in a court hearing, are you trying to cozy up to Donald Trump? | ||
Is that why you're fighting the subpoena and this nondisclosure order? | ||
This is the sort of thing that happens in Washington. | ||
Yes. | ||
Let me juxtapose how this is going to be framed for the American people. | ||
They've arrested yesterday or early this week. | ||
They're still arresting people for January 6th. | ||
I want the audience to embrace this. | ||
We just had the verdict on this on November 5th of what people felt about this lawfare. | ||
Remember, MSMEC, the New York Times, the Washington Post, Democracy Dies in Darkness, it was their top thing, even more than abortion, was democracy, democracy, democracy, that we're fascists, that we're Nazis, we're brown shirts, that we're garbage, we're deplorables, Trump's an autocrat, all of it. | ||
That was on the ballot. | ||
That was a referendum. | ||
And they got blown out. | ||
We held the House, we took the Senate, we won the presidency, and he won the popular vote. | ||
Think about that for a second. | ||
In all the battleground states, including Nevada. | ||
And they are in your face. | ||
I tell people all the time, they're not going to stop until you stop it. | ||
Don't think they're just going to sit there. | ||
They're in your grill every day after having this referendum go against them on November 5th. | ||
They're still starting trials, and more importantly, they're still arresting people. | ||
The jackboots are still coming. | ||
It has to be stopped. | ||
And now they're over there, while the jackboots are still arresting people for J6, they're over at the White House all night, burning the midnight oil, trying to think of every sneaky way they can give blanket, preemptive pardons to a gang of criminals. | ||
To a gang of criminals. | ||
And last night, they finally admitted... | ||
By the way, think of this Rogue's Gallery. | ||
You got Fauci and all the guys that lied to you, lied to you, lied to you, and the crimes they did around Wuhan... | ||
And the gain of function and the lies and the misrepresentations and what they did to the nation. | ||
You got Cheney and her lies in Congress and what she did. | ||
Now you got Clyburn out there all going to defend them. | ||
Right? | ||
You've got... | ||
And now they've added Jack Smith in the team. | ||
And that's going to be Lisa Monaco and Merrick Garland and all of it. | ||
They're burning up the mid... | ||
What they're doing is shipping arms to Ukraine to make sure that that fiasco continues. | ||
At the same time, they're telling these people, we need your 18-year-old kids. | ||
It's like Moloch. | ||
We need more human sacrifice. | ||
We need your 18-year-old kids that only killed a million of you folks. | ||
Over here, in this totally preventable war that Donald Trump would have never allowed, and the Russians would never have tried, Putin and the gangsters in the KGB in Moscow would have never tried on Trump's watch, ever. | ||
And at the same time, now, on the border, Todd Benz is going to be in the second hour. | ||
All they're doing is trying to figure out every way they get more people across to make it a bigger issue. | ||
At the same time, they're funding these groups to say, hey, you've got to go to court, try to stop this, try to stop the deportation. | ||
Like President Trump said the other night, What kind of people, what kind of love of the country do they have to allow 10 to 15 million illegal people here on their watch? | ||
They hate this country. | ||
And now we've got them. | ||
And we've got them cornered like a rat. | ||
And what are they doing? | ||
They're spending all their time over there All their time, thinking through how do we get pardoned. | ||
And Norm Ornstein, one of the biggest, or Norm Eisen, one of the biggest of all the criminals. | ||
He's out with a big piece in Newsweek saying, oh, you know, to stop persecution. | ||
Hey, brother, I didn't see you writing that. | ||
I didn't see you writing that in 2021 when you took the whole power of the state and came after us. | ||
Julie Kelly, your thoughts, ma'am? | ||
Well, Steve, I'm going to tell you what a blanket pardon for Jack Smith and his team would mean. | ||
Just like the Hunter Biden pardon, this is to protect Joe Biden and his White House. | ||
Because guess what will happen if they investigate Jack Smith and Jay Bratt, especially Jay Bratt? | ||
He was taking marching orders from the Biden White House. | ||
There is proof that was demonstrated in the documents case that I covered That Jay Bratz was at the Biden White House at least twice in 2021. There were meetings between Mayra officials, the Obama flack, David Ferrero, and his attorney, Gary Stern, who were meeting with Joe Biden's general counsel, Jonathan Hsu. | ||
So guess what, Jack Smith? | ||
If he's thrown under the bus and Biden doesn't protect him, they are going to discover, probably 100% discover, Communication between Jack Smith and his team, the Biden White House, perhaps Joe Biden himself, directing the documents case, and of course the J6 case in Washington that's now been dismissed as well. | ||
This is to protect Joe Biden. | ||
He doesn't care about Jack Smith. | ||
He doesn't care about Jay Brat. | ||
He only cares about himself. | ||
Because if he was in cahoots, That's not covered by the immunity test handed down by the Supreme Court earlier this year. | ||
That would be a personal act. | ||
Not in his official capacity as president. | ||
And Joe Biden knows that. | ||
This is, again, to protect himself. | ||
unidentified
|
That's all Joe Biden cares about is himself. | |
Julie Kelly, where do people get you? | ||
I know you come up with a big story on Monday. | ||
Where do people go? | ||
My sub stack is declassified with Julie Kelly. | ||
I'm going to write about this today so people can check it out tonight. | ||
Real clear investigations. | ||
I'll have a big piece out Monday. | ||
Hopefully I'll be back on the war room to talk about it. | ||
And Twitter, of course, Julie underscore Kelly, too. | ||
Julie Kelly, thank you very much, ma'am. | ||
Appreciate you. | ||
Thanks. | ||
Thanks. | ||
The National Police Association? | ||
I've got to get the exact name. | ||
A big law and order group came out and endorsed Cash Patel, beheaded the FBI next in the war room. | ||
unidentified
|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann. | |
Okay, Cash has been my crack staff here. | ||
He's going to put it up from Denver. | ||
I don't have it for my crack staff. | ||
It's been almost crack staff. | ||
National Police, what is it, the National Police Association has endorsed one Kash Patel as head of the FBI. Folks, we got momentum. | ||
The tide has turned on Hexit. | ||
Look, it ain't over till it's over in these things. | ||
But I think Matt Boyle and Charlie Kirk and others, Jack Posobiec, backed off Joni Ernst. | ||
Joni, it's not a good look when you want a job, when you're putting the knife in somebody to get the job. | ||
So I think, hey, Pete's fine. | ||
He's not going to change the women in the military thing. | ||
You know that. | ||
Just throw in with the team and let's move on. | ||
If they... | ||
Take another one out. | ||
They're going to smell blood in the water. | ||
Now, 24 hours ago, 48 hours ago, they're all sitting there going, hey, we've called Hegseth from the herd, Alinsky 101. We got cash teed up. | ||
He's going to be next after Hegseth. | ||
They're starting to lay the early groundwork, the predicate for Tulsi. | ||
She's a Russian asset. | ||
And they're coming for the big kahuna is Bobby Kennedy. | ||
That's what they want. | ||
That's how they're going to do it. | ||
And President Trump's going to end up with a bunch of agreements. | ||
Think about it for a second. | ||
When Gates went around... | ||
That one day, what was leaked? | ||
I'm not saying Matt said this. | ||
I'm not saying J.D. said this. | ||
I'm just saying what was being leaked by the Republican Senate offices, they were leaking that he got him to back off MSNBC. He got him to back off Fauci. | ||
He got him to back off like Jack Smith in this crowd. | ||
Who knows if it's true or not, but remember, they're going to get concessions. | ||
The harder you make these things, you're going to get concessions and try to get new people in there that are more moderate, that are not going to go fix bayonets and go over the top and take on the apparatus of the administrative state and the deep state. | ||
You saw this yesterday, and I'll get to it in the second hour and again tonight. | ||
But the Doge guys went up there yesterday, and when you go up to Capitol Hill, you've got to go in with a show of force. | ||
If you're going to take on the administrative state and the deep state with all the lobbyists, all the money go through, you've got to hit it with a boom. | ||
If you go up there in like a listening session, they're going to all of a sudden smell that, hey, I don't think these guys can bring it. | ||
And the first thing they started going to, Focahanna, she had Focahanna, she had all these other people going on MSNBC last night saying it's not constitutional, they can't do it. | ||
Well, hey, I've got a constitutional way to do it. | ||
Doge is going to work with OMB and we're going to put it in the appropriations process. | ||
We'll take it apart brick by brick there. | ||
What do you got to say about that? | ||
Suck on that. | ||
Right? | ||
Tell me what you got to say. | ||
There's plenty of ways to get it in here. | ||
My recommendation is, like in anything else, you need muzzle velocity. | ||
You've got to put the fear in them. | ||
You've got to put the fear in them. | ||
These are not your colleagues. | ||
You go up to Capitol Hill, you're in enemy territory. | ||
You're in enemy territory. | ||
You have to put the fear of God in them. | ||
Otherwise, there's not going to be any change. | ||
No change. | ||
Right now at the White House, what are they doing? | ||
You've got the fear of God in them. | ||
You've got their, oh, they're sitting there. | ||
Oh, we're going to be persecuted. | ||
We're going to have to get lawyers. | ||
You know, last I said, oh, the mental anguish of having this. | ||
Hey, we'll see how resilient you are. | ||
We turned out, our group, our team turned to be pretty resilient. | ||
As President Trump said, take a punch, get up and give one. | ||
How good are you guys at taking a punch? | ||
It doesn't look so good. | ||
You're still curled up in the fetal position from the beating you got on, the good old-fashioned beating you got on 5 November in the year of our Lord 2024, of which you had the high ground. | ||
You had all the money. | ||
You had the apparatus. | ||
You had state power. | ||
You had the media. | ||
You had everything. | ||
President Trump and his forces had nothing. | ||
Nothing but the truth. | ||
Nothing but a man that is extraordinary with all his imperfections is extraordinary and one of the great figures in the history of the greatest country on earth. | ||
That's what we had. | ||
And we had righteous indignation, right? | ||
Righteous indignation that fueled people and fired them up and continues to fire them up even as of today. | ||
A couple of things. | ||
Birch gold. | ||
One of the things we're doing here... | ||
Trust's government got turfed out because of this issue. | ||
Later, Richie Sunak completely failed on this issue. | ||
The Labor government took over the biggest sweeping thing. | ||
The Labor government's up against the wall for the same issue. | ||
It's called the economy. | ||
It's called your debt. | ||
It's called how you actually go forward in some sort of like federal spending or government spending austerity. | ||
How do you do that? | ||
How does that actually happen? | ||
The government of France has fallen. | ||
You know, Macron says he's not going to step down. | ||
He's not going to step down. | ||
President Trump's going to go there and maybe give him some guidance. | ||
We are going to hit that firestorm. | ||
This whole concept, and now they're talking about CR, and they've got to do all kinds of complexity on this CR. We know that they're going with the border first. | ||
Why are they going with the border first? | ||
Because the debt ceiling, the taxes, and look, they're going to try to, they want the ox to be gored with the working class and the middle class. | ||
Okay, those guys up, particularly those senators, man, a bunch of bad hombres up there on both sides of the football. | ||
So they've kicked that down range. | ||
That's a win for you because they know right now they ain't got the votes to pass this thing, right? | ||
They ain't got the votes to pass it. | ||
But more than ever, you need to understand exactly what's going on. | ||
We try to break it down and explain it to you. | ||
One of the ways we do it is through Birch Gold. | ||
Through this program we have, it's totally free, called the End of the Dollar Empire, where you can understand kind of what the financial situation of the country is. | ||
Now we're doing a very special one Before Christmas, you can go and sign up. | ||
Go to birchgold.com right now slash Bannon. | ||
It is about modern monetary theory. | ||
This is an idea that broke the world, right? | ||
Right now, it's a radical theory coming out of, hey, France, where they have a tendency to throw some radical theories out there. | ||
Remember the French Revolution. | ||
You're going to really have a full understanding of how we got in the situation, of how we added, I don't know, $15 trillion in debt. | ||
I think since President Trump left, 11 trillion since President Trump left office. | ||
You understand the implications. | ||
Right now, I keep telling people, it's like having a second mortgage on your home. | ||
That's the cost of the federal government having to finance this. | ||
And that's cost by the increase of purchasing power of the dollar and inflation. | ||
Combo. | ||
Combo package. | ||
