I heard, as it were, the noise of thunder. | |
| One of the four beasts saying, come and see. | ||
| And I saw and behold a white horse. | ||
| There's a man going around taking names. | ||
| And he decides who to free and who to blame. | ||
| Everybody won't be treated all the same. | ||
| There'll be a golden ladder reaching down. | ||
| When the man comes around. | ||
| The hairs on your arm will stand up. | ||
| At the... | ||
| terror in each sip and in each suck You partake of that last offered cup Or disappear into the potter's mouth When the man comes around Hear the trumpets, hear the piper We're live from Phoenix Convention Center in Phoenix, Arizona. | ||
| We're brought in by St. John the Evangelist, the Book of Revelations. | ||
| Man, it feels a little apocalyptic, doesn't it? | ||
| Right? | ||
| I'm not saying this is the last days, but hey, I don't know, man. | ||
| It's looking bad. | ||
| This is why we've got to sort this mess out in Washington, D.C. We've got to hit it with a blowtorch. | ||
| Nothing else is going to work. | ||
| It's completely unacceptable. | ||
| President Trump coming back from a political grave. | ||
| The MAGA movement having his back. | ||
| Four years. | ||
| Four years to get to election day, right? | ||
| Look at all the work you did, all the struggle you did. | ||
| Four years. | ||
| And then since that victory, which crushed the mainstream media, right? | ||
| And crushed the little snowflakes on the left. | ||
| They're all in the fetal position. | ||
| It's too hard to resist anymore. | ||
| They're just overwhelmed, right? | ||
| This is when you stay on offense. | ||
| This is when you're enforcing your will on people. | ||
| And what do we do? | ||
| And he goes to Notre Dame. | ||
| He looks like Charlemagne. | ||
| He goes to the Army-Navy game. | ||
| Army-Navy game is a little bit like Kim Il-Jung, man. | ||
| The midshipmen and the cadets. | ||
| I've never seen it like that. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| He's on a roll, and then you have this speed bump, so we're going to have to sort things out. | ||
| I want to hear what you guys think about the CR. I want to hear about the speaker. | ||
| And most importantly, your advice to President Trump, is it shut it down, or is it do a CR, or what do you do? | ||
| I just say we've got the reconciliation, and there's got to be two reconciliations. | ||
| We cannot wait to just do one in March. | ||
| President Trump wants the fire of the football. | ||
| Tom Homan and Steve Miller Have a very well thought to plan. | ||
| There's going to be a ton of executive orders. | ||
| But they're going to need some resources to back them up. | ||
| And that's why they've got to pass this reconciliation. | ||
| Because remember, the bigger things, when they want these big bills. | ||
| And they're talking about just one massive reconciliation bill sometime in the spring. | ||
| They're not there to illuminate things. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| They're there to hide things. | ||
| That's why you've got to have two. | ||
| So you can just focus on the border. | ||
| You can focus on the deportations. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Because there's got to be some resources. | ||
| That's got to be a plan. | ||
| Jane Zirka, what do you got over there? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mordecai, I'm from Texas. | |

| What are your thoughts on the CR and the shutdown? | ||
| The 38 need to embrace the fact that November 5th was a Trump mandate and they need to get in the game. | ||

| Steve, you are our special teams coach. | ||
|
unidentified
|
My word to President Trump would be, listen to the posse through Steve Bannon. | |
| Not in the deal, not in the room. | ||
| You bring us in the room. | ||
| We're grateful for that. | ||
| All gas. | ||
| Hey, listen to the posse. | ||
| No break. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Fix bayonets, metaphorically speaking. | |
| But listen to Steve, and let's shut it down. | ||
| Let's pay the price for the sake of our country's future. | ||
| Listen, this is what populism is. | ||
| Listen to you folks. | ||
| You guys got that amazing American common sense. | ||
| Ben Berkholm, what do you got for us? | ||
| All right, I got this young man. | ||
| What's your name? | ||
| Again, tell me your message. | ||
|
unidentified
|
My name is Barrett Leemaster. | |
| I'm from the great state of Ohio, and I was a first-time voter in this election cycle. | ||
| All right! | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm a type 1 diabetic, and it enrages me that the Biden administration takes charge and takes the credit for lowering insulin prices when it was really Trump. | |
| It was President Trump. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And my message to you, President Trump, is keep lowering the prices. | |
| Amen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Katie Jackson. | |
| I'm a retired Navy senior chief. | ||
| Go Navy! | ||
| All right! | ||
| All right! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Senior chief. | |
| Rockport, Texas. | ||
| I'm the Aransas County Republican Party chair. | ||
| We came out 80% for Trump. | ||
| Wow. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't want Karl Rove in national politics, and he needs to get out of Texas. | |
| We gotta ban the Democrat chairs, put the Republican caucus-nominated speaker in the seat, and let's get the business done of Texas. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| Yeah, let's talk about that real quickly. | ||
| Tell me about that speaker's race down there. | ||
| Who's our guy? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Our guy is Cook. | |
| He is much more conservative than Dustin Burroughs. | ||
| He is definitely about banning the chairs, following the rule of law, getting our priorities passed. | ||
| That's David Cook. | ||
| Dustin Burroughs... | ||
| Answer this. | ||
| Texas being about as MAG as you can get, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, sir. | |
| In fact, I would say it actually tends toward ultra-MAGA, maybe? | ||
| You with me, the senior chief? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Just a little bit there, LT. Just a tad. | |
| You got a little bit of ultra-MAGA there? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Plus 14 for Trump, plus 9 for Ted Cruz, plus 14 for Michael Cloud, my congressional representative, and we turned every single appellate court red this election. | |
| So, hey, so Trump was plus 14, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, sir. | |
| And Ted Cruz missed a personality. | ||
| Was plus nine, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, sir. | |
| Okay. | ||
| Those are, I would say, massive landslide wins, particularly all we're hearing is Texas going blue, Texas purple, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Texas will never go blue as long as we turn out the rural vote. | |
| Amen. | ||
| Now, last question. | ||
| Why are there so many Bush globalists in Texas politics? | ||
| I can't figure that out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know, but I wish they would just leave. | |
| Well, they're not going to leave because they've got control of one of the great, if not the greatest state in the union. | ||
| So how are we going to turf them out? | ||
|
unidentified
|
How are we going to turf them out? | |
| First of all, we've got to disband the Texas lawsuit reform. | ||
| They have gone way past their mandate. | ||
| And we've just got to get them out. | ||
| Senior Chief, you've got social media people who can get to you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, I do, sir. | |
| I am on Twitter at Force7920. | ||
| You can also find that as Katie on Full Force. | ||
| Thank you, ma'am. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Appreciate you. | |
| Jane Zirka, what do you got? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Your name and where you're from? | |
| Todd from Chandler, Arizona. | ||
| And what are your thoughts on the CR shutdown situation? | ||
| I say we shut it down and let the posse be the voice to tell the people and wake them up from the media stupor. | ||
| Are you folks really ready to take the pain? | ||
|
unidentified
|
We'll take the pain! | |
| On Christmas Eve, CNN is going to cancel all their vacations because they're all about to get laid off anyway, right? | ||
| They're going to have the camera. | ||
| Everybody's going to have crying kids. | ||
| You're going to have no gifts. | ||
| Are you ready to take them? | ||
| Because shutdowns are political warfare. | ||
| It's narrative warfare. | ||
| Are you prepared to take the pain of a shutdown? | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're prepared to take the pain. | |
| We've already been taking the pain. | ||
| We've already been taking the pain. | ||
| What's a little bit more? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Ben, what do you got? | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| Legal immigrant over here. | ||
| Tell me your name. | ||
| Where are you from? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hi, Steve. | |
| I'm Chona, the tenderest legal immigrant since 2010. Wow. | ||
| I'm from the Philippines. | ||
| And I have really, really strong Thoughts about immigration. | ||
| Deport all of them. | ||
| Illegals, go. | ||
| They're illegal aliens. | ||
| They're not illegal or they're not migrants. | ||
| They're all illegals. | ||
| Get out of here. | ||
| Go through the process. | ||
| I did it. | ||
| Not just once but twice because somebody in USCIS messed up my paperwork. | ||
| And so I had to pay again the fees. | ||
| So I paid thousands of dollars for the fees. | ||
| What's your message to President Trump? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Deport all of them! | |
| I don't really care! | ||
| I went through the lines! | ||

| I'm Lisa Dalibera, and I'm from the great state of Texas. | ||
| And what are your thoughts on the CR shutdown situation? | ||
| Shut it down. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| I don't think that we are going to... | ||
| Are we going to suffer at all? | ||
| The logic for shutting it down would be what? | ||
| What's your logic? | ||
| If you were sitting in Mar-a-Lago and talking to President Trump, President Trump's got incoming, he's got people all over him, he's got the national media calling him up, what would be your advice to him? | ||
| Your one-on-one with him, what would you tell him? | ||
|
unidentified
|
One-on-one with President Trump. | |
| Okay, well, obviously you want to drain the swamp. | ||
| The only way to do that is to defund... | ||
| Don't go Joe Biden on me, okay? | ||
| We want political and economic advice. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Think retribution. | |
| Oh, well... | ||
| I think that we, people want to have more take-home. | ||
| People want to have the government off their back. | ||
| People want to be able to, well, in my case, educate their kids at home. | ||
| That's, I'm a homeschooler, and I think that, yeah, thank you. | ||

|
unidentified
|
I'm Anna. | |
| I'm from Colorado. | ||
| And my message to President Trump is free and pardon every J6 hostage. | ||
| Every single one. | ||
| Free and pardon them. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| I'm Sonia from Colorado, and we need to free and fully pardon every single January 6th hostage. | ||
| Every single one. | ||
| Holly, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. | ||
| Let me go back there. | ||
| On the first thing President Trump should do is pardon all the J6ers, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes! | |
| Yes! | ||
| Okay, show of hands. | ||
| How many agree with that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes! | |
| Pretty unanimous, right? | ||
| Why do you want to... | ||
| I thought the January 6th were all insurrectionists. | ||
| They're all the worst people in the world and a democracy. | ||
| Why do you want to... | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no. | |
| They're political prisoners. | ||
| There's video footage. | ||
| They were peacefully in there. | ||
| They are not violent criminals. | ||
| They were invited in and they all need to be released. | ||
| Do y'all think it ought to be that Cash, one of the first things he ought to do is maybe look in, maybe kind of look into what happened on January 6th? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes! | |
| Yes! | ||
| Do you think this might have been a Fed's direction? | ||
| Yes! | ||
| I agree with you. | ||
| All right. | ||
| On the wall. | ||
| Come up here. | ||
| Come up here. | ||
| Right next to the wall down in Aravaka. | ||
| What's your message? | ||
| What's your name? | ||
| How close are you to the wall? | ||
| And what's your message, President Trump? | ||
|
unidentified
|
My name is Michelle, and we have property 11 miles from the border. | |
| And we need to build the wall. | ||
| Build the wall. | ||
| What's it like living down a couple of three miles from the border? | ||
|
unidentified
|
There are dozens of illegals that come through. | |
| It is, we're told, about a day's walk. | ||
| So about four or five o'clock in the evening. | ||
| Is when we start to see border crossers because it takes that long for the walk. | ||
| Was this an organized effort? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
| Why do you say that? | ||
| Give me some evidence. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There is a camp that is two properties for me called No Mas Muertes and that is the driving point to some of the illegals there. | |
| That's where they're trying to get. | ||
| When they get to this camp, they are given rides to Phoenix and then from there, who knows? | ||
| By the way, it's partially funded, Steve, by Pima County. | ||
| No More Deaths is partially funded by Pima County. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| And all the religious NGOs, Catholic charities, Lutherans, all of them. | ||
| Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to come back here. | ||
| You guys have been pretty fired up this early in the morning. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Were you all out late last night? | |
| Yeah, I know. | ||
| It's that kind of crowd. | ||
| Hey, how you doing? | ||
| We got to make sure. | ||
| Get up here. | ||
| We want everybody on the show, right, over the next couple days. | ||
| This show is your show. | ||
| We love doing the live shows. | ||
| And for some reason, I'm normally down among the people. | ||
| I got this thing right here. | ||
| I don't know what the hell it is. | ||
| I look great. | ||
| They told me it's a better angle for the audience, so I'm buying it right now. | ||
| Well, if the lighting's better, then we're going to do it. | ||
| A guy my age needs great lighting. | ||
| Where's Carrie Lake's lighting person when I need it? | ||
| That girl, that girl rolls with a great team. | ||
| Okay, short commercial break. | ||

unidentified
|
America's home. | |
| You gotta believe. | ||
| You gotta believe. | ||
| Believe. | ||
| Open your eyes. | ||
| No time to be blind. | ||
| Open your mind to see. | ||
| We're in a modern day, holy war. | ||
| Coming after your mind to find your soul. | ||
| Oh, oh, it's true. | ||
| Modern day, holy war. | ||
| Tell us your blessing in your sin. | ||
| Is this a modern-day holy war, right? | ||
| This is a spiritual war. | ||
| Now, we've got to get down into kind of the muck of Washington, D.C., but it's definitely a spiritual warfare at its highest levels. | ||
| Do you agree? | ||
| Because the mainstream media mocks me. | ||
| Is President Trump an instrument of divine providence? | ||
| No doubt in your mind. | ||
| Divine will, right? | ||
| Okay, I think I've got some good news here. | ||
| So here's what they're going to do. | ||
| So the rough plan for the deal is to move forward. | ||
| They're going to do three single bills. | ||
| They're going to do a clean CR, right? | ||
| A clean CR. Then they're going to have a separate disaster relief for the people in North Carolina. | ||
| Now, I would love to have an offset, but hey, you know, at this late stage... | ||
| We may have to eat that, but disaster relief, because I'm not so sure FEMA hasn't held that money back from these folks. | ||
| Then number three, they're going to have a farm aid bill, totally separate, up or down vote, okay? | ||
| So you've got a CR that kicks us into the new year. | ||
| I don't know how long that is. | ||
| I would hope it would be short, but it may be until President Trump comes to office to the 20th. | ||
| So clean CR, disaster relief, farm aid, and wait for it. | ||
| This is how good we are. | ||
| They have a handshake agreement for spending cuts in exchange for debt ceiling increase in the reconciliation package, where it should have been in the first place. | ||
| This is what so upsets me. | ||
| So the reconciliation package is going to come hopefully on the 20th of January the 21st. | ||
| This is the border one. | ||
| This is what Tom Holman and Stephen Miller have asked for. | ||
| It's some money to begin the process of deportations. | ||
| It's also money with no happy talk to build the wall and additional security, okay? | ||
| It's also, I think, money in exchange for, because remember, when you have 12 or 15 million people here, we've got to be logical about this. | ||
| You're just not going to give them a bus ticket. | ||
| I mean, Ben, you've been down there. | ||
| You've seen the whole thing. | ||
| There's got to be some agreement, and there are already talks going to the frontline nations. | ||
| Mexico, you saw what she agreed yesterday. | ||
| She said, send them back. | ||
| That's because Peter Navarro and Besant and vote with President Trump, you know, President Trump's tariffs, you know, it was a wake-up call for her, right? | ||
| Because, let's be blunt, for all the good folks down in Mexico, and there's tons of good folks down in Mexico, is that the politicians are owned by the cartels, right? | ||
| 100% to cartels, Ben Burkwam. | ||
| No doubt? | ||
| No doubt. | ||
| It's a narco country. | ||
| It's a narco state, essentially, right? | ||
| And that's why the people in Mexico are terrorized more than anybody, just like the people on the southern border. | ||
| They want freedom like we want freedom. | ||
| They've been under the thumb of the cartels for decades. | ||
| Would you guys support, and remember, we're not for forever wars and we're not for going overseas, but we got a festering sore on the southern border of these cartels. | ||
| Would you guys believe in paramilitary strikes to go down and take out the cartels? | ||
| No doubt. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Take them out. | ||
| Let me hear that. | ||
| Take them out! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Take them out! | |
| So you're prepared. | ||
| You're prepared. | ||
| We don't want war in Ukraine, right? | ||
| As soon as we take care of the Persians, we've got to stop these wars in the Middle East as soon as Hezbollah and Hamas and the Muslim brohill, all these guys are gone. | ||
| But we've got a real war. | ||
| We need to fight down in the southern border beyond. | ||
| It's not just Mexico. | ||
| It's in our own country. | ||
| The cartels in every city. | ||
| Do you agree that we should deploy the military? | ||
| We don't need posse comitatus because they're saying Trump's going to deploy troops all over. | ||
| We've got the constitutional sheriffs. | ||
| We've got plenty of folks to make sure we go and collect people. | ||
| They're in the jails, get them all out of here. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| But should the military be deployed down to the southern border? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
| No doubt. | ||
| You tell President Trump, day one, action one. | ||
| It's the front of the war, Steve. | ||
| It's the front of the war. | ||
| I tell you, the 20th is going to be a pretty busy day, isn't it? | ||
| Man, oh man, we got a long list. | ||
| It's a long list. | ||
| It's a Christmas list. | ||
| I want to go back to this for a second. | ||
| This is very powerful, people. | ||
| This entire reconciliation, and look, President Trump, we've got President Trump's back. | ||
| I'm not sure we're going to agree with everything with President Trump, right? | ||
| We're just not. | ||
| Because I am adamant that right now, with the financial situation of the country, Right? | ||
| We need to get these populous tax cuts in there. | ||
| We need no tax on tips, no tax on wages, and quite frankly, the most important and the most expensive is no tax on Social Security. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| It's ridiculous. | ||
| It's ridiculous. | ||
| And all they do is that they're all over, you know, the $1,200 check people get. | ||
| They're all over. | ||
| They want to get into entitlements. | ||
| They said, you're not going to cut entitlements in this country until you show the American people that you can take care of discretionary spending And we can get the tax structure right. | ||
| The American people, the one thing the little guys got is a contract. | ||
| That contracts with Social Security and with Medicare, and they're not prepared to give it up. | ||
| As their financial advisor, Goldman Sachs would say, no, you're going to get... | ||
| You're going to get as much leverage, and you're going to get as much for that as possible. | ||
| If there has to be at some point in time, some movement, and I'm not saying it has to be, but if it is, you're going to get a big pound of flesh for that, okay? | ||
| So that has to be, but when you look at everything that has to happen, somebody has to show me the math that how do you not increase taxes on corporations, how you don't increase taxes on the wealthy. | ||
| I hate to say it, and I realize people say tax cuts, but The corporations feed it the trough. | ||
| The reason that the budget's so high is that the corporations are in there with their lobbyists getting all these tax breaks and special deals. | ||
| The corporations entirely don't only pay $500 billion of the $4.5 trillion. | ||
| Only $500 billion comes from taxes. | ||
| I'm just saying. | ||
| Because they got pretty powerful lobbyists, right? | ||
| Now, if they had taken all those tax cuts And put them back into plant and equipment and brought jobs back here. | ||
| Maybe it's an argument, but they didn't. | ||
| They spent almost all the money on stock buybacks. | ||
| And stock buybacks just takes equity out of the market. | ||
| And what it does, it drives the stock price up. | ||
| And option packages come in. | ||
| That's gaming the system. | ||
| That's not what those tax cuts were meant for. | ||
| And to me, that's got to stop. | ||
| It's just got to stop. | ||
| The American public are not going to get a fair deal. | ||
| And it's not just about raising the marginal tax rates. | ||
| There ought to be taxes on these financial transactions. | ||
| There's all types of very smart ways that carried interest. | ||
| Now, carried interest is not going to generate a tremendous amount of cash, but it's the principle of the thing. | ||
| Why should you guys, on every marginal dollar, you pay at whatever your bracket is, you're paying that marginal dollar and the carried interest, the hedge fund guys, the billionaires, what they do is they pay capital gains tax on the current income that they derive From the management fee. | ||
| Remember when you have these companies you get a management fee of a couple percentage to manage the assets then you basically get 20% of the ups, right? | ||
| That's the standard. | ||
| Like I said, a hedge fund is not a different business, just a different pay structure, right? | ||
| And that's where everybody gets into a hedge fund. | ||
| But for years it's been, they pay at a capital gains rate, just not fair. | ||
| You guys, if you think about the great tragedy of how we got in this space and it took us a long time to get here. | ||
| But the working class and middle class in this country First off, you do all the work to kind of keep the country going, right? | ||
| You do all those small things from the churches to the Lions Club to Coach the Little League, you know, to the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts or at least the old school Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. | ||
| But all those things in the community that Edmund Burke called the little platoons, that's what is civic society in this country, right? | ||
| Plus, you pay the lion's share the bulk of all the taxes. | ||
| And then in addition, your pension fund, the little bit of money you've been able to put aside is in these big pools of capital, which I have a problem with. | ||
| But those pools of capital are what they use to create the Zuckerbergs, to create the Googles. | ||
| With no fare thee well to you guys, and not just that, the bulk of your money in the pension funds in private equity and in the hedge funds went to ship all the jobs overseas. | ||
| The country was gutted by Wall Street over a period of 20, 30, 40 years. | ||
| They sent it over and then cut the most favored nation deal with China. | ||
| The post-war international rules-based order, which your grandfathers and grandfathers delivered with the victory in World War II, And Rosie the Riveter delivered with the women going to work and us becoming the arsenal of democracy. | ||
| That victory over time set up a system that the system was gained by the elites in this country to enrich themselves. | ||
| You just don't come about, and this is why it's so hard to change. | ||
| And this is why President Trump is a battering ram. | ||
| He's a blunt force instrument. | ||
| That's going to deliver blunt force trauma, right? | ||
| But if you see it, they're not going to give up the system. | ||
| The top, what, 1% own something like 80 or 85% of the assets in the country. | ||
| The top 5%, 3 or 5% almost own 95% or 90% when you put the value. | ||
| You can't go on like that. | ||
| You just can't go on. | ||
| You see that seething anger... | ||
| Which I disagree with, but I say, that seething anger that led that rich kid to gun down the guy in the back. | ||
| Remember, the guy who got gunned down was a working class kid from Iowa, right? | ||
| Who just tried to make his life better. | ||
| He shot in the back, and now they're cheering the kid on, right? | ||
| It shows you, though, but... | ||
| You've got to address what's driving that anger, and one is the lived experience of the American people. | ||
| This system just can't go on. | ||
| What we have is a capitalist system with no capitalist, right? | ||
| Everybody's got to have a stake in this. | ||
| Every citizen has to have a stake in it. | ||
| The problem is, in the way the system's set up, the global elites, the party of Davis, have a bigger stake in your country than you have. | ||
| It's just not going to work. | ||
| If we're to do anything, we've got to unravel that system and get it back that we're not socialists. | ||
| We're the exact opposite. | ||
| We believe in entrepreneurial capitalism. | ||
| What we don't believe is, is kind of this late-stage, high-financed, speculative capitalism. | ||
| We believe in productive capitalism, which money goes back to companies, money goes back to entrepreneurs, so that all your side hustles actually can become your main hustle with a little bit of capital, right? | ||
| It's not going to be, they're just not going to sit there and go, Steve, that's so brilliant. | ||
| Why don't we just toss you the keys? | ||
| You guys do what you want. | ||
| That's not going to happen. | ||
| It's going to be a dogfight, but I got to tell you, this is a huge win. | ||
| If this happens today, I think it's a huge win where there's an agreement now to do it in the reconciliation, to give Elon and these guys some time to do the doge work, to have some real spending cuts in there, and President Trump gets the relief from the debt ceiling because they will try to hang him up. | ||
| Okay, short break. | ||
| We're going back to the war in a moment. | ||
|

|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Band. | |
| You are back in the war room. | ||
| Thank you, guys. | ||
| No, no, no Don't don't cheer for me because I'm gonna ask you guys a question. | ||
| I'll start easy. | ||
| Okay Does speaker Johnson need to go? | ||
| Alright, so we're gonna keep going and drilling down on the CR stuff. | ||
| As you guys know, things are always evolving in Washington DC, but I want to bring to your attention what just broke about an hour ago. | ||
| Now, there's a little word in Washington DC that they obviously love more than the United States of America, and that is, you guessed it, Ukraine! | ||
| Now, what if I told you another 1.2 billion dollars is about to be announced in additional aid To Ukraine. | ||
| Let's boo for that. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And you know what I have to say? | ||
| I'm honestly at this point, I don't know about you, I'm not even mad at the Democrats. | ||
| You know who I'm mad at? | ||
| It's the Republicans! | ||
| And you know why? | ||
| Because you have talked about tens of billions of dollars that have been allocated to Ukraine, and Republicans, when they were negotiating, could have clawed it back. | ||
| But they negotiate, not from a position of victory, a victory of 77 million people, but from a point and a vantage point of loss. | ||
| I mean, how ridiculous is it? | ||
| Speaker Johnson and all those Republicans up there, they had more of a chance of winning on the CR than the Ukrainians ever did beating Russia. | ||
| But what fight do they pick and what are they willing to shut down the government over? | ||
| The Ukrainian border? | ||
| They're not willing to shut it down, right? | ||
| How many times was the border mentioned in that original CR? Four frickin' times! | ||
| And now they want to give another $1.2 billion in untraceable aid. | ||
| And by the way, you know they're not just scared, right, about the aid dissipating and going away. | ||
| They're scared of the audits. | ||
| Do you guys think we need to audit all of the Ukraine aid? | ||
| And frankly, you guys can tell I'm losing my voice, but you know who I'd start with? | ||
| Mark Milley. | ||
| Can we get boos for Mark Milley? | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| I realize I don't think anyone has said his name yet, so we gotta make sure we gotta give our message to MSNBC. Should we court Marshall Mark Milley? | ||
| Do we need to court Marshall Mark Milley? | ||
| I think so. | ||
| But remember, it's the Republicans who, what, just two weeks ago voted for the NDAA that allowed for border materials to be auctioned off. | ||
| Our House Republicans absolutely suck. | ||
| They're controlled opposition. | ||
| But you know what we do have? | ||
| And there's a clip, if Denver has it, that I want to play because y'all got a shout out from MSNBC this morning. | ||
| Let's play it. | ||
| In an earlier time, without that media pressure, right-wing media pressure, I think Republican senators and House members during Donald Trump's first term would have said, this is a bridge too far. | ||
| He's gone too far. | ||
| This crosses a line. | ||
| We can't tolerate this. | ||
| But those just aren't the rules anymore. | ||
| Well, I don't know if you could hear that, but what he says is that it used to not be that you guys, people who watch shows like this, could run the tables on the people in Washington, D.C. And they are so upset and mad about that. | ||
| And it's a testament to the power of this audience. | ||
| But I don't know about you guys. | ||
| Do you guys remember watching the DNC? Remember all the American flags, right? | ||
| The patriotism. | ||
| Yeah, the joy. | ||
| You guys like joy? | ||
| Yeah, where did all that go? | ||
| Right? | ||
| Suddenly the patriotism, it goes away. | ||
| Well, I don't know about this. | ||
| I don't want unity with people who want to destroy the United States of America. | ||
| Right? | ||
| I want chaos if our enemies are going to be America last traitors. | ||
| And I'm looking at you, Liz Cheney, Mark Milley. | ||
| How about Victoria Nuland? | ||
| Can we get some booze for Victoria Nuland? | ||
| And by the way, they're up there. | ||
| They're not content with just the blanket preemptive pardons. | ||
| They want amnesty. | ||
| Bill Clinton's up there auditioning for pardons for, you guessed it, Hillary Clinton. | ||
| I guess Bill's pardon's gonna have to go back to 1998, what he was doing in the White House then. | ||
| But these people are liars, and we just found out the Pentagon has been, what, of course, lying to us. | ||
| There's over 2,000 troops in Syria. | ||
| For months, they had been telling us that it was only 900. So maybe we need to audit Syria, too, while we're at it. | ||
| These people are absolute liars, and you can tell I'm losing my voice, so thank you. | ||
| But, in the meantime, I would love to do some more crowd work. | ||
| Got some war room posse. | ||
| Let's talk to some of the war room posse. | ||
| Yeah, Natalie, you were just talking about the border. | ||
| I'm joined by a patriot from Eagle Pass. | ||
| Talk to me about what's going on down there. | ||
| Heyo! | ||
| I'm from Eagle Pass, Texas, where it is hot and the borders are wide, wide open. | ||
| So, yeah, it is all very true. | ||
| It's scary. | ||
| I'm a Mexican-American, a first-generation Mexican-American, and I cannot believe what my grandparents had to do to get here. | ||
| Tell me about the organization that you started to protect our country. | ||
| Okay, so our organization is called MASA. Make America Safe Again. | ||
| So all these young women, I'm a young woman as well. | ||
| I cannot go outside and run. | ||
| I can't throw my trash because I am so scared of what's out there. | ||
| It's not fair. | ||
| How about this? | ||
| You guys want some real full-blown propaganda? | ||
| Joe Biden says that the highest amount of deportations committed this month in the entire last span of 10 years. | ||
| You guys think that's true? | ||
| You think Joe Biden is deported? | ||
| No, and where was Ms. Kamala Bordazar? | ||
| Was she underneath the meter pole? | ||
| Was she underneath the car? | ||
| Please tell me. | ||
| The Border Patrol has become the welcome patrol for a state-sponsored, and they, you know, they reworked The legislation. | ||
| So Chinese nationals didn't have to answer questions about whether or not they were trained in weaponry. | ||
| They were members of the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| They reworked it so you didn't have to DNA test with young kids and their alleged parents that we know is how they human traffic all over the southern border. | ||
| It's absolutely wild. | ||
| Ben, I see we have some young'uns. | ||
| You're going to take my job. | ||
| Yes, this is the future of our nations on your shoulders. | ||
| You ladies got it? | ||
|

|
Hi, Ms. Natalie. | |
| My name is Victoria Lancaster and I'm a homeschooler from Arkansas. | ||
| Here's my question. | ||
| It appears that the Democrats have been targeting the parties and local politics. | ||
| What strategies would you recommend for competing with that on the local level, especially with Democrats who already have significant influence? | ||
| You're going to have to repeat. | ||
| So what strategy? | ||
| The Democrats control the local parties. | ||
| They've been fighting on the local. | ||
| Her question is, what would you recommend to help fight the Democrats in local areas? | ||
| And they're from Arkansas. | ||
| I want to give a shout out to her mom, who's actually the attorney who sued Hunter Biden. | ||
| I met at the courtroom in Arkansas, Little Rock. | ||
| Shout out to mom. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're certainly raising them, right? | |
| Let's hear a little bit about that. | ||
| You're saying that you sued Hunter Biden? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| My husband and I are attorneys from Arkansas and we sued Hunter Biden on behalf of London Roberts for child support and custody. | ||
| So I've seen his financials. | ||
| I did a lot of reporting from that hard drive. | ||
| I sat on a terrace. | ||
| I think I was a freshman in college. | ||
| And I can't unsee what I saw on that. | ||
| I was worse than the frat parties. | ||
| No. | ||
| To answer your question, I think your mom knows exactly how Democrats keep getting elected. | ||
| It's partly, what, election fraud? | ||
| We know. | ||
| Did Joe Biden win the 2020 election? | ||
| No! | ||
|
unidentified
|
But they also censor us. | |
| I'm sure you guys have seen the numbers, what was it, of how many people had seen the Hunter Biden laptop, they would have changed their vote. | ||
| But you know what the worst part of the whole censorship warfare is? | ||
| That House Republicans, not only are they so weak and feckless, remember last whole CR go-around, they couldn't even get the votes to take the salary of the CISA director to zero, the same federal agency that not only rigs and hacks elections but censors you for daring to say anything about it, but now they put in a provision to extend the Global Engagement Center over at the State Department so they can censor you and censor our foreign populist allies. | ||
| So, we gotta win the censorship stuff. | ||
| By the way, Natalie, with Bill Clinton, we gotta go even beyond when he was president, back to when he was allegedly running cocaine through the governor's office in Arkansas. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know if we want to talk about cocaine in front of the children, but we'll... | |
| Jane, hit me with it. | ||
| I got some posse from California. | ||
| Sir, tell me about what's going on there. | ||
| My name is John Dio. | ||
| I'm from the soon-to-be conservative state of California. | ||
| Conservative Californians are standing up to get a Republican governor. | ||
| We need to get rid of Gruesome Newsome and the bird flu bull****. | ||
| Your name and where you're from. | ||
| Mike Rogers, Chandler, Arizona. | ||

We the people need to keep contacting D.C. so they have the support that they know they've got the support. | |
| Don't stop praying. | ||
| Gotta light up the phones. | ||

How have you been fighting to get President Trump over the line? | |
| What actionable items have you taken? | ||
| Well, I've encouraged other people. | ||
| Get the word out. | ||
| Get the word out. | ||
| Your name and where you're from. | ||
| I love the sweater. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Andrea Young from Scottsdale, Arizona. | ||
| And I'm here. | ||
| I want to clean up Maricopa County. | ||
| I'm ready to move out, but I'm going to stay and fight. | ||
| Stay and fight. | ||
| USA, USA. Trump hat, your name and where you're from. | ||
| Jackie from San Diego, California. | ||
| We need to get ahead of the governor's race and unite on the same conservative governor. | ||
| Big time, big time! | ||
| Okay, I want to get some clips that MSNBC can use for their broadcast tonight, okay? | ||
| We're gonna do a little exercise. | ||
| We're gonna make their job. | ||
| You know, their viewership is so low now. | ||
| They have, what, about 30,000 people watching. | ||
| I think AmpFest attendance is bigger than MSNBC's entire audience at their prime viewership. | ||
| So I know we're not allowed to, what, say that we want retribution. | ||
| But you guys want retribution against people who are going to destroy this country for decades? | ||
| Yes! | ||
| You guys think Liz Cheney needs to go to prison? | ||
| Yes! | ||
| Mark Milley, we know he's getting court-martialed, right? | ||
| You think we need a special investigation into Joe Biden and Hunter Biden? | ||
| And most importantly, the original sin of the last four years, we're going to finally investigate the stolen election that happened in 2020, right? | ||
| But here's the important thing. | ||
| We obviously fought very hard. | ||
| This audience killed it, as MSNBC just told you, in the Stop the Steal movement. | ||
| You guys had no helps from your Republican betters, right? | ||
| Where the heck was the RNC? But you guys now have to stop the new steal, which is the steal of President Donald Trump's second, should be third. | ||
| Maybe there'll be a fourth. | ||
| We'll give you that, MSNBC. Because that's exactly what they're trying to do right now. | ||
| Look, I'm going to be honest. | ||
| I know Steve told me that I got it. | ||
| The CRs will take it. | ||
| It's a win. | ||
| We like to win. | ||
| There is nothing that this horrible, illegitimate, brutal, repressive regime can do in the next few weeks that is worth keeping it open because all they are intent and hell-bent on doing is tanking President Donald J. Trump. | ||
| They want to shut down and open up migrant detention facilities right now. | ||
| All the climate change crazy hoaxers are putting out studies to try to make it so we cannot drill baby drill. | ||
| Do we need to drill baby drill? | ||
| Is climate change real? | ||
| That was a little quiet for my liking, but it's okay. | ||
| I'll take it. | ||
| I'll take it. | ||
| I guess I'll rephrase. | ||
| Is climate change man-made? | ||
| There you go. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| We're humble in the war room. | ||
| We'll accept a fact check when we see it. | ||
| It's a scam. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| I'm gonna lose my job to anyone in this audience. | ||
| But that's what my favorite part of my job is. | ||
| And when you guys watch War Room, it's so awesome. | ||
| Because you know what? | ||
| MSNBC, CNN, they wish that they had an audience like you guys. | ||
| That is so powerful and so impactful that you've, what, deposed one? | ||
| Speaker of the House, you've tanked now, what, three or four CRs? | ||
| You forced Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer to shut up and shove it and get single-subject spending bills. | ||
| And believe me, it's not because of Speaker Johnson, who I reiterate where we started this whole thing, needs to go. | ||
| I'd put a motion to vacate now, but I understand. | ||
| It's a bit of a lag time in D.C. I think you guys would do much better if you guys were... | ||
| Apparently $173,000 a year isn't enough for, what, the genius that is Hakeem Jeffries and Mike Johnson. | ||
| I think you guys would probably take that job for a lot less, right? | ||
| Come on! | ||
| Alright, we got one more block. | ||
| We will be back. | ||
| And I gotta say, I love your hat. | ||
| I see your hat. | ||
| We'll be right back. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Band. | ||
| You are back in the war room. | ||
| We are coming at you live from AmFest. | ||
| Remember during COVID when they tried to shut all this down? | ||
| Look how far we've come. | ||
| Screw them and then some. | ||
| I won't get another FCC violation. | ||
| I would. | ||
| I've been waiting. | ||
| You know, Steve, what he said infamously, F whatever, before he went to prison. | ||
| And I was like, look, Steve. | ||
| First of all, you have to promise to host my show when I inevitably have to go to prison, and I get to use the F-word one time. | ||
| It's worth the fine. | ||
| Let's hit the audience for a little bit, and then we'll give some concluding remarks. | ||
| What's your name and where are you from? | ||
| Hannah Falconer, and I'm from Nashville, Tennessee. | ||
| How are you involved in conservative politics? | ||
| Yeah, so I'm the host of the Hannah Faulkner Show, and I just wrote, last year in the Save Our Republic, forwarded by the great General Michael Flynn, as many of you guys know, just trying to save America. | ||
| It's crazy the things that we've been talking about here today, but we've just got to keep standing and keep fighting. | ||
| As a young person, how important is it to get involved at a young age and drive the Gen Z to the right direction? | ||
| Yeah, absolutely. | ||
| Well, Ronald Reagan said, you know, freedom is never more than one generation away from It isn't passed down through the bloodstream. | ||
| And so if we aren't going to fight, if this generation isn't going to fight, understand its history, then this generation, then this country is doomed to fail, is doomed to fall away. | ||
| So if we don't fight, who will? | ||
| We've got to get involved, get involved in this fight, fight for freedom. | ||
| So I'm excited and I'm thankful for what you guys are doing and standing on the truth. | ||
| Big time, big time. | ||
| Your name and where you're from? | ||
| My name is Josh. | ||
| I'm from California. | ||
| What brings you to AmericaFest? | ||
| Well, for starters, I'm actually celebrating my late 24th birthday gift to myself. | ||
| Happy birthday! | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Yeah, and also because I wanted to celebrate the great political comeback from Trump. | ||
| Was President Trump's victory the best birthday gift ever? | ||
| Oh, it certainly was. | ||
| Your name and where you're from? | ||
| I'm Cynthia Bronte. | ||
| I'm from Nebraska. | ||
| I am part of a movement in Nebraska to erase the blue dot. | ||
| Erase the blue dot big time. | ||
| How are you going to do that? | ||
| The vote comes up in January and so we have a whole group of people there and we're getting them all motivated to get to their state senators. | ||
| Light up the phones. | ||
| Your name and where you're from. | ||
| Hello, my name is Julian Lee and I'm from Northwood University and I'm a follower of Christ and that's exactly what I'm doing here today. | ||
| Who are you most excited to see here at AMFest? | ||
| I'm not gonna lie, Henry Cejudo, Antonio Brown. | ||
| Come do a face-off with me. | ||
| I'd love to see you guys. | ||
| So if you guys are around here, say what's up to me. | ||
| Your name and where you're from? | ||
| Sonia. | ||
| I like your shirt. | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| We wanted to, woo! | ||
| It's a good one. | ||
| And we wanted to thank you guys, Natalie and Steve Bannon, because I think if you guys hadn't stood in the breach, we wouldn't be here today. | ||
| Let's take a second before we toss to Ben. | ||
| That's very kind. | ||
| Thank you for coming. | ||
| Had Donald Trump lost, or maybe the better way to put it, had the election been stolen from him again, which, shout out to you guys, the grassroots, you guys stopped it. | ||
| You actually made it too big to rig. | ||
| They probably would have found a way to shut down this event, shut down this show. | ||
| Half of you guys would probably be imprisoned by now, right, or have been indicted for something you didn't do. | ||
| How blessed and lucky are we that we have the ability and opportunity to come together here today because of one man, and that man is Donald J. Trump. | ||
| Think about it. | ||
| So when, what, Mark Zuckerberg and those people, they want to write their, what, one million? | ||
| How cheap do you think we are? | ||
| A million dollars. | ||
| You donate, what, a billion dollars to rig the election for Joe Biden, and you give the bare minimum to make the check seven figures to the MAGA movement, and you think that you need to be in the front row for the inauguration. | ||
| How about this? | ||
| Go back to the metaverse, Mark Zuckerberg. | ||
| We don't want you in MAGA. Ben, let's hit some. | ||
| Wow, this is so cool. | ||
| Speaking of some great merchandise, look at this hat. | ||
| I think you know where this is from, Natalie. | ||

| The Lord bless and keep you. | ||
| Make his face to shine upon you. | ||
| Be gracious unto you. | ||
| And raise up this next generation in Jesus' name. | ||
| By the way, War Room Posse over here. | ||
| All right, sir. | ||
| I want to get you on here. | ||
| What's your name? | ||
| Where are you from? | ||
| What's your message to President Trump? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Andy Jennings, and I'm from Northern New York, the next red state. | |
| Open. | ||
| And I just want to say, I just want to give some condolences to all those Republicans that worked so hard on that 1,500-page CR. There was some good stuff in there, but the fact is, Jamie Raskin is so pissed because there's a lot of bad, there's a big poison pill in there from him, and it's beautiful to see him losing his mind, and I hope he goes on MSNBC and loses his mind a little more. | ||
| And Natalie, by the way, the Republicans, I think to your point, they're just comfortable losing. | ||
| We've got to wake them up and say, hey, we're winning. | ||
| It's time to win again. | ||
| No more compromise with people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Last time I checked, we won an overwhelming victory. | |
| 77 million Americans are, what, 312 electoral college votes. | ||
| Take your pick. | ||
| They are not getting to negotiate from a point of victory because they lost. | ||
| And you know why they also don't get to negotiate from a point of victory going all the way back to 2020? | ||
| Because they never won to begin with. | ||
| That's right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They talk about President Trump like he's already the president. | |
| He hasn't even been sworn in. | ||
| And he's the one... | ||
| Where's Joe Biden? | ||
| Yeah, where is Joe Biden? | ||

Where's Hunter? | |
| Should be in prison, but I guess he got the pardon. | ||

| Well, thank God she's not president, and she never will be. | ||

Officially unburdened by what has been. | |
| And I'd also subtweet CC that to Nancy Pelosi because War Room, this audience, you've got no need to have me just put this audience up on the shot. | ||
| They tried to shut this show and this movement down. | ||
| They threw Stephen K. Bannon in prison at what? | ||
| Probably the personal request of Nancy Pelosi by Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, all these horrible traitors to this country. | ||
| And look what happened to this show. | ||
| We're more powerful. | ||
| You just killed not one, but two, two CRs in a matter of what, 36 hours. | ||
| Speaker Johnson's going to be deposed. | ||
| And it's all because of you and your phone calls and your texts and your messages. | ||
| So suck on that, Nancy Pelosi. | ||
| And how about this, the next time you want to throw MAGA in prison, maybe realize, or how about this, the next time you want to try to assassinate President Donald J. Trump, because we know the deep state did that, just look at this crowd right now. | ||
| Because unlike you and your declining viewership and your ghost and dead voters who never existed to begin with, this movement's not going anywhere. | ||
| And you know what we're interested in? | ||
| Retribution, justice, and accountability. | ||
| And taking down the deep state once and for all. | ||
| USA! Thank you guys. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| We will be back live here at 3 p.m. | ||
| And suck on that, Nancy Pelosi. |
