Here as the would-be Democratic presidential nominee, and we all know what happened after that. | |
| Again, you didn't see a particularly warm greeting between the first couple and the second couple, but again, we are at a funeral, so one has to take that into account when trying to read the body language of the individuals there. | ||
| Oh, Lord, I will be changed in your own hands. I will be changed in your own hands. | ||

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

War Room. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, Thursday, Thursday. | ||
| 9th January in the year of our Lord, 2025. Welcome to the War Room. | ||
| As you've noticed over the last couple of days, we've been so swamped in getting ready for President Trump, the return of President Trump to the Imperial Capitol and the taking over of this. | ||
| Kicking out the phony regime, the illegit regime of Biden and cleaning up this mess. | ||
| We have not mentioned a word about Jimmy Carter. | ||
| And I served under Jimmy Carter as a naval officer in the Pacific Fleet and then in the North Arabian Sea and Persian Gulf in the run-up to the work-up to the hostage rescue operation back in 1980. | ||
| Correct? | ||
| 79, 80. | ||
| And I've gone out of my way not to talk anything about the state funeral and all that. | ||
| But I have to comment on this, folks. | ||
| Right there, you had this, you know, people walking in and, you know, the Obama... | ||
| And for all the fanboys out there saying Obama was talking to him, no, Obama snubbed President Trump. | ||
| Didn't shake his hand. | ||
| Went and shook Gore's hand and shook Pence's hand. | ||
| President Trump walks in and Gore, Al Gore stands right up, boom. | ||
| How you doing, Mr. President? | ||
| Shakes his hand, looks him in the eye, gets a firm grit. | ||
| Judas Pence, once again, Pence can't commit to anything, right? | ||
| Can't commit. | ||
| Kind of looking back and forth, feeling, you know, with mother right next to him. | ||
| Got to stand up. | ||
| Gives him that weak handshake. | ||
| Dude, you've got to commit to action, Pence. | ||
| So Pence is there. | ||
| Then Trump sends down. | ||
| Looking like Charlemagne again. | ||
| Looking like he was in Notre Dame. | ||
| Now he's in National Cathedral. | ||
| And Obama comes in, snubs him. | ||
| But then they start talking, and so yes, Obama and him get some more. | ||
| Bush walks in. | ||
| The worst president in the history of the country. | ||
| They just did a poll. | ||
| Yesterday, saying that among modern presidents, I guess from Jack Kennedy forward, that maybe from Eisenhower forward, that Biden was ranked as the lowest. | ||
| Bush is the second worst president in the history of the country. | ||
| Only James Buchanan is worse. | ||
| I can go through details. | ||
| He walks right by in a blatant public snub of a guy who just won re-election. | ||
| So I don't want to hear the Bushes and the Bush crowd. | ||
| I don't want to hear Karl Rove and all these people. | ||
| I've had respect for institutions. | ||
| You guys don't respect anything. | ||
| You don't respect anything. | ||
| You got your butts kicked by MAGA. We're going to have the guys in Texas down here at the bottom of the hour. | ||
| You got your butts kicked in Texas by MAGA because you're corrupt. | ||
| Everybody associated with the Bush apparatus in Texas or anywhere, you're corrupt. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're part of the problem. | |
| You're telling me that loser, the worst president in the history of the country, comes by in a church, walks right in the pew, which he should have walked around, but hey, that's about class and style. | ||
| You're telling me that he walks by a man that was president of the United States and then had it stolen and came back from nowhere and against all odds and won a sweeping victory to unify the Republican Party and the nation? | ||
| And you're going to big league him? | ||
| Is that what you're going to do? | ||
| This is to the core of it. | ||
| All Bushes and Bush-related people, you suck. | ||
| You have no clash. | ||
| You're little people. | ||
| You're bitter Karl Rove. | ||
| You're a bitter little man. | ||
| Bush, you're the worst president in the history of the country when we go through it. | ||
| 9-11. | ||
| Oh, and the whole thing, that was all Clinton's fault. | ||
| Clinton had a lot to do, but you were on watch, dude. | ||
| When I was in the Navy, we were relieved to watch one second afterwards. | ||
| It's your responsibility. | ||
| It's your responsibility. | ||
| Then you had the financial collapse. | ||
| We had... | ||
| I skipped over a few things. | ||
| Afghan war and the Iraq war. | ||
| Afghan, you could have gone in and done it right away. | ||
| Didn't get Osama bin Laden. | ||
| Your military blinked. | ||
| That was a 20-year contest. | ||
| You know, nation building. | ||
| Let's get the blue fingers. | ||
| Sure they voted. | ||
| Iraq, where you lied. | ||
| Basically, essentially war criminals because you blatantly went out and changed the intelligence and lied to everybody. | ||
| Lied to everybody. | ||
| We don't need an apology, but you've never gone to the families, you've never gone to Section 60 of Arlington National Cemetery and say, you know, it was your responsibility, it was your fault. | ||
| Never. | ||
| Bushes won't do that. | ||
| They don't have any character. | ||
| Zero. | ||
| Old man didn't have any character. | ||
| Old man sent Scowcroft on. | ||
| We could have taken down the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| How many tens or hundreds of millions of Chinese allowed by Jing have been destroyed since then? | ||
| Was it 1989? | ||
| June of 89. That's fault. | ||
| The whole families. | ||
| The whole families. | ||
| They're weak. | ||
| They're corrupt. | ||
| They're easily manipulated by business interest. | ||
| They play with some tough folks. | ||
| Don't get me wrong. | ||
| Don't get me wrong. | ||
| The corporatists and some of those folks down in Texas, those old guys, natural guys. | ||
| Hey, come on, man. | ||
| You don't need to watch landmen to know there's some tough hombres. | ||
| They got the easily manipulated... | ||
| You know, I knew a guy that knew Bush before the Bass family installed him as the president of the Texas Rangers to give him a job before they ran for governor, and he was doing all the gas deals, and they said, look, like a lot of rich kids, he had his little questions down and his due diligence, but once they gave an answer... | ||
| He couldn't answer the following question. | ||
| That's the intelligence you can tell somebody we're in a business relationship where they can drill down and actually get into the details and ask you a bunch of questions that you can understand how they think. | ||
| He can't do that because he's dumb. | ||
| I mean, really dumb. | ||
| He's got this arrogance of these rich kids. | ||
| He's got this arrogance of these rich kids. | ||
| So he big leagues Trump. | ||
| He snubs Trump. | ||
| So please spare me. | ||
| You know, Nicole Wallace and all you people that work for him, please spare me. | ||
| All of you. | ||
| You Bush people, please spare me how you revere the institutions and how it's all about the institutions. | ||
| It's all about the good of the country. | ||
| He just walked by a man who's saving this country and saving this republic from a lot of stuff that he caused. | ||
| Like the 2008 financial crash. | ||
| Oh, you had to add that? | ||
| Let me throw that in. | ||
| I'm leaving Katrina out. | ||
| He's still the worst president. | ||
| The only president in the history of the country. | ||
| I'll get on stage debate anybody on this. | ||
| The only president in the history of the country worse than Bush 43 is James Buchanan. | ||
| You got Buchanan, you got Bush. | ||
| And then I think you have a free fall and you get down to some other bad guys, incompetent guys. | ||
| Don't mean to speak. | ||
| Poorly of the dead, particularly on the day he was buried. | ||
| Isn't it ironic, too, that it's the 112th birthday of Richard Nixon on the same day that Jimmy Carter's buried? | ||
| I mean, that whole thing. | ||
| Carter was a reaction, an overreaction to Richard Nixon being turfed out, taken out by the apparatus, the legal apparatus. | ||
| That's real lawfare. | ||
| Ask Monica Crowley. | ||
| Ask the guy Shepard that wrote those amazing books. | ||
| That is basic. | ||
| It's not Woodward and Bernstein. | ||
| Come on, man. | ||
| But even Woodward and Bernstein, remember, always remember, Deep Throat, Deputy Director FBI, just saying, got their hands everywhere. | ||
| Going to do a coup d'etat here, maybe assassination there, maybe look the other way there. | ||
| What a run they had. | ||
| Break them up. | ||
| American Gestapo, break them up. | ||
| So he gets big-legged by Bush. | ||
| Let's be honest, trying to humiliate him, trying to embarrass him. | ||
| Trump doesn't care, he's Trump. | ||
| I just won the presidency for the second time. | ||
| The whole world. | ||
| He's been in the whole world. | ||
| Larry Fink came out today. | ||
| Another one of the worst of the worst. | ||
| He, as I said, I put it up on Getter, he read the room. | ||
| I'm out of ESG. The big, I guess, panel or commission or committee of which he's the head guy. | ||
| BlackRock is officially out on ESG. That means ESG, DEI, all of it. | ||
| These were guys that were committed. | ||
| This was the future. | ||
| This was going to change everything. | ||
| Climate change, social engineering, race relations, all of it. | ||
| Using capitalism. | ||
| Yeah, Larry Fink's out. | ||
| Donald Trump's got them. | ||
| I heard they've got like a 100-person wait list for the million dollars. | ||
| They're down there. | ||
| They're supplicants. | ||
| Please take my million dollars. | ||
| Thank you, sir. | ||
| May I have another? | ||
| So he's getting big. | ||
| But here's the reason I want to start with it. | ||
| All that being said, President Trump's a bigger man than that. | ||
| I didn't need to start with that. | ||
| I wasn't going to start with that because President Trump's a bigger man. | ||
| He's got saving the country and saving the world and his agenda. | ||
| So talking to Obama and having Bush shake his hand is not everything. | ||
| By the way, Johnny Conrad here. | ||
| I think Johnny Conrad lost his house in Palisades. | ||
| What a hero. | ||
| Palisades. | ||
| What a debacle. | ||
| Horrible. | ||
| Natalie's gone at 6 o'clock, she's got a lot to say about that. | ||
| I haven't gotten to the punchline. | ||
| As bad as their love of the institutions and their mockery of the institutions, this is the established order, led by Bush. | ||
| The thing that's most offensive, most offensive, was the selection of the music. | ||
| In fact, if Denver could be so kind, we're going to come back and I want to play the beautiful music that was the people walking into church, entering church, before bringing in the last remains of Jimmy Carter, President Carter. | ||
| Absolutely magnificent. | ||
| Just the kind of beautiful church hymns. | ||
| Or this is kind of choral, not really church hymn, choral. | ||
| And then... | ||
| Garth Brooks and Trish Greenwood are going to sing Imagine. | ||
| Yo, you're going to sing Imagine in a Christian... | ||
| I imagine the National Cathedral is still a Christian church. | ||
| I think it's High Episcopal, right? | ||
| You're going to sing Imagine a song by a depraved, degenerate atheist that's about atheism? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Who thought that was a good idea? | |
| And people in the audience singing along? | ||
| You goofballs. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| This is what we're saving America from. | ||
| That clown show. | ||
| Okay, we're going to take a short break. | ||
| We're going to return in the war room. | ||
| We're going to have a little culture class here. | ||
| We're going to Texas to talk about that race down there for the speaker and also Julie Kelly in the Supreme Court next. | ||
| Okay, I am going to get to my analysis of the choral I am going to get to my analysis of the choral music, Be Still My Son, which absolutely We're going to play that again in a minute. | ||
| Not yet, not yet. | ||
| Hold, hold. | ||
| We're going to then play Imagine. | ||
| A song by, let me repeat, a song by a depraved degenerate. | ||
| I happen to think he's got no talent. | ||
| I know I'm going to get a lot of blowback from that. | ||
| A no talent. | ||
| I'm not a big Beatles fan to begin with. | ||
| Even as a kid, I was a Rolling Stones guy, and then later Grateful Dead. | ||
| Beatles never did it for me. | ||
| But even with that, I think John Lennon's a hack, okay? | ||
| A depraved, degenerate hack with the most atheistic song you could possibly have. | ||
| But of course, we're going to play that in a high Episcopal church. | ||
| Only the National Cathedral of the United States. | ||
| And listen. | ||
| All the guys are not Episcopals. | ||
| We all play nice when they're there. | ||
| The Catholics, the Methodists, you got a ton of Southern Baptists. | ||
| Jimmy Carter, a Cracker Southern Baptist. | ||
| I say that lovingly. | ||
| I love that phrase, Cracker. | ||
| People forget when I was a kid in the International League, you had the Richmond Virginians, the Richmond Vs, and guess what? | ||
| You had the Atlanta. | ||
| Atlanta was a AAA team at the time. | ||
| The Atlanta Crackers. | ||
| That was their name. | ||
| How was that? | ||
| Fabulous when they came to town. | ||
| But I got breaking news. | ||
| I'm going to hold all that. | ||
| In a little while. | ||
| Because I've got breaking news about the Supreme Court and Julie Kelly, and I've got this Texas fight that is a fight for the speakership. | ||
| I think we've got the chairman of the Republican Party going to join us here momentarily, because big fights down in North Carolina, big fights in Texas. | ||
| We've got to win these fights. | ||
| Julie Kelly, now correct me if I'm wrong, and this is the one I care about. | ||
| I care about Jack Smith, obviously, but that's something that could take a little longer. | ||
| Tomorrow at 9.30, I think, Eastern Standard Time, in the Superior Court of New York, Mershon is going to sit there, and he is scheduled in his books to sentence President Trump. | ||
| Now, President Trump does not have to be there. | ||
| He could be by Zoom, but his lawyers will be there. | ||
| And Mershon, trust me, he's got a big, long, you know, it's a little longer than the Gettysburg Address. | ||
| He's got a long list. | ||
| Of why Trump is unfit for public office, all of it. | ||
| It's at the Supreme Court right now, or at least so to my year reviewing it. | ||
| It's 5.30. | ||
| It's 5.30 in the afternoon, ma'am. | ||
| Are they going to make a decision? | ||
| Do they have to make a decision? | ||
| Can she just sit on this and then Trump's got to show up? | ||
| I think it's possible that Sonia Sotomayor, who is, of course, the dumbest member of the Supreme Court, and admitted last year that sometimes she goes into her office and she cries at certain opinions rendered by the court that don't go her way. | ||
| So because the New York Circuit is under her jurisdiction right now for this sort of emergency application to stay the proceedings, she is the one then who asked for the response from Juan Mershon and Alvin Bragg by 10 o'clock this morning, which was filed. | ||
| And so this is... | ||
| Apparently still sitting on her desk. | ||
| We don't know what she's doing with it. | ||
| To your point, if she doesn't act and there's no relief for President Trump, that sentencing hearing will go forward tomorrow morning at 930. Do you anticipate, or is the word happening, are they working or going to drop it? | ||
| They could drop it at any time. | ||
| You could drop it in a one-liner. | ||
| You could put a stay on this. | ||
| You could do anything. | ||
| Between now and 930, but normally, for the courtesy of the lawyers that are coming in from out of town traveling, you normally do it before close of business the day before. | ||
| Do you have any sense of what's going on here? | ||
| I don't, and others who I've talked to really don't either. | ||
| I mean, it would be hard to get some sort of information from the Supreme Court at this point. | ||
| Yes, I guess she could issue some sort of order today granting his application for a stay, which would then halt those proceedings tomorrow. | ||
| I guess she could do it in the morning as well. | ||
| But again, you're dealing with an extremely liberal, partisan Supreme Court justice. | ||
| And keep in mind that she is one of the three justices who opposed the immunity opinion issued by the Supreme Court last year. | ||
| So this could be her way of getting back at the fact that a lot of this, the request for To put a hold on the sentencing hearing tomorrow is based on presidential immunity. | ||
| So that would be the disappointing one more disappointing angle here. | ||
| And of course, the other issue is the New York appellate court. | ||
| Also denied President Trump's emergency motion for a stay on sentencing and did that today as well. | ||
| Another radical left-wing state judge in New York working with prosecutors to try to convict, officially convict President Trump tomorrow. | ||
| Now, the Judge Cannon or Jack Smith, has there been any other developments anywhere on any of these other related matters? | ||
| There was an interesting development in the 11th Circuit. | ||
| That's the appellate court in Florida that's now handling this matter of whether Jack Smith can release his report, the draft that he gave to Merrick Garland earlier this week. | ||
| The 11th Circuit, the appellate court there, did grant President Trump's request to file an amicus brief and explain why he supports What's happening in that case and preventing blocking Jack Smith from releasing that report to the public or Merrick Garland, which is interesting because, of course, the case has been dropped against President Trump in Florida. | ||
| But apparently what this amicus brief revealed is that even though there's two sections of the report, One dealing with the January 6 case, which was dropped. | ||
| One dealing with the classified documents case, which was dropped against the president, but not as two co-defendants. | ||
| There is some intermingling of the two cases in this report. | ||
| So, as we talked about, what Merrick at the DOJ said yesterday is, okay, well, we'll keep volume two. | ||
| This is the classified documents part of Jack Smith's report. | ||
| We'll keep that under wraps from the public, but we'll let the chairman and the ranking members of the House and Senate Judiciary Committees to view it privately. | ||
| Now, who does that involve? | ||
| Jamie Raskin, who is the new chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. | ||
| We are expected to believe that Jamie Raskin will look at possibly grand jury information, other material. | ||
| Hold on, hold on, hold on. | ||
| Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. | ||
| He's not chairman. | ||
| He's ranking member. | ||
| It's a big difference. | ||
| Excuse me. | ||
| He's ranking member. | ||
| He's a senior, he's a senior, senior Democrat. | ||
| He can still leak, but he's not. | ||
| I mean, chairman, if he was chairman, it'd be lights out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| It'd be lights out. | ||
| They would get it and then print it right there. | ||
| Being ranking member, he's still got to kind of tiptoe around it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Correct? | |
| Well, no, he'll have equal access to it. | ||
| That is what, according to the DOJ... That has been their compromise. | ||
| So yes, I'm sorry, he is ranking member, Jim Jordan, of course. | ||
| But he doesn't, if he was chairman, he could actually make something to overrule, try to overrule the FBI, or Garrett Garland put it out, and then they said, no way. | ||
| He'd say, oh gosh. | ||
| But his ranking member, he's still powerful, don't get me wrong, he's a senior Democrat, and he fought for that position, specifically because of this, and also for, they're going to gear up to impeach Trump, even as minority, they're going to We're going to be keeping records on Trump on everything. | ||
| If Hakeem Jeffries wins in 26, first thing they're going to do is to impeach Trump, and Jamie Raskin will be running the—he'll be the chairman of Judiciary, and he'll run the deal. | ||
| So on this one, we don't know anything more except the fact that President Trump's able to call in the cavalry a little bit. | ||
| Correct. | ||
| So they did allow him to file that amicus brief, which he did this afternoon. | ||
| But importantly, Judge Aileen Cannon. | ||
| Who, of course, presided over the documents case and dismissed the indictment over the summer after determining that Jack Smith's appointment violated the Constitution. | ||
| She issued an order on Tuesday preventing the Department of Justice for now from sharing that draft report outside of the DOJ. So they are still bound by her order, even though the appellate court above her is also deliberating this issue. | ||
| What the two co-defendants' lawyers asked for, and those are Mar-a-Lago employees, Walt Nada and Carlos de Oliveira, who also were indicted in that case. | ||
| They have asked yesterday, asked this appellate court to hold a hearing before Judge Cannon about this report. | ||
| Now, I'm not sure that that's going to happen. | ||
| It would have to be next week. | ||
| So we're still waiting to see what the appellate court does here. | ||
| Now, Jay Bratt, your favorite person. | ||
| Tell me, Jay Bratt, no relation to our own Dave Bratt. | ||
| By the way, Dave's down in Orange County, Florida today giving a talk tonight. | ||
| I think it's sold out. | ||
| Good on you, Dave. | ||
| In fact, I hear it's more than sold out. | ||
| Jay Bratt, it's another rat. | ||
| Jay Bratt's left the ship also. | ||
| He's a rat overboard. | ||
| Yes, Jay Bratt, who I call the degenerate midget because he is, and of course he was the top prosecutor for Jack Smith in the classified documents case in Florida, but his involvement preceded Jack Smith's appointment in November of 2022. Jay Bratt really running this whole operation from the beginning was at the Biden White House at least twice in 2021. He was, | ||
| I believe, working with the archives to concoct some sort of documents case throughout 2020. And Jay Bratt going to Mar-a-Lago in June of 2022 with three FBI agents in tow. | ||
| President Trump delaying his relocation to Bedminster for the summer to greet Jay Bratt, doing it in good faith, allowing him to go through Mar-a-Lago, including the areas where these boxes were stored. | ||
| Despite that level of cooperation, Jay Bratt again leaves Mar-a-Lago, pushes for two months. | ||
| To get a search warrant approved and authorizing ultimately the armed raid of Mar-a-Lago on August 8th, 2022. And he resigned. | ||
| That's the end of the story for now. | ||
| He retired on Sunday. | ||
| He's been with the DOJ like 35 years. | ||
| But he will be under investigation along with Jack Smith and the rest of those prosecutors and investigators. | ||
| Criminals, all. | ||
| Okay, Julie, where do people go to get all the latest updates, substack? | ||
| Your social media, all of it, ma'am? | ||
| So, I'm at Declassified with Julie Kelly on Substack, Real Clear Investigations. | ||
| And also, as soon as we get news here, breaking that on ex-Twitter, Julie underscore Kelly, too. | ||
| Just refreshed the Supreme Court page. | ||
| Still nothing as of now, 5.30 Eastern Time. | ||
| Not looking good for the home team. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| Okay, Julie, thanks. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| Also, for times of turbulence, make sure you talk to Philip Patrick and the team over at Birch Gold. | ||
| They can walk you through white gold. | ||
| You may consider gold now as an alternative, particularly when I put some money away as a hedge against inflation. | ||
| I think President Trump is committed to take down inflation. | ||
| You've got to get your hands around the spending and the budget. | ||
| First, I think the Treasury market is over $28 trillion just in Treasurer's loan. | ||
| Scott Besson, I believe, has to refinance. | ||
| $7 trillion of current debt and then obviously finance the new debt. | ||
| It's a mess. | ||
| Birchgold.com. | ||
| Make sure you understand the hedge. | ||
| About why it's a hedge. | ||
| Okay, I'm going to go to Texas. | ||
| I was going to do something else, but now I've got Abraham George up, the chairman of the Texas Republican Party. | ||
| Mr. George, help us out here. | ||
| This audience has been very engaged. | ||
| Of course, we have a huge, massive audience in Texas, but throughout the country, got very engaged in this situation with Ken Paxton last year. | ||
| You've got a lot of MAGA here. | ||
| They really turned out. | ||
| They knocked on doors. | ||
| This is why you had the massive win for President Trump with 14 points, Ted Cruz, I think, 9 points. | ||
| You know, people could argue, you know, with maybe Arizona and Ohio, obviously Florida, maybe even Tennessee, that Texas, there's the first among equals as the MAGA state. | ||
| Tell us what's going on for this. | ||
| And I just had the opening. | ||
| You didn't see it. | ||
| But, you know, George Bush, the 43, snubbed, really tried to humiliate President Trump today at National Cathedral. | ||
| Walked right by him, kind of slipped through the road, walked right by, wouldn't even look at him, didn't shake his hand. | ||
| I mean, a total disgrace. | ||
| But there's another fight down there. | ||
| This is for Speaker of the House. | ||
| This one's getting real nasty. | ||
| Could you just read us into the program, what's going on down there, so we can understand it, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, sir, Steve. | |
| I've got to say, you know, that was an embarrassment for Texas as well, what he did today to President Trump. | ||
| Texas is a MAGA country, Trump country, and for... | ||
| It was just awful. | ||
| But what's happening in Texas is... | ||
| Hang on a second. | ||
| That was obvious to you. | ||
| It was obvious to me. | ||
| But sometimes I'm over... | ||
| And I admit this. | ||
| I'm overcritical of the Bush family. | ||
| And look, everybody's got faults. | ||
| That's one of my faults. | ||
| But you saw that also. | ||
| With your lying eyes, you saw that he absolutely went out of his way to snub President Trump? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, absolutely. | |
| He did his path to Barack Obama and literally ignored the next president of the United States. | ||
| And coming from Texas, watching that, seeing that, and he was our governor before, it just infuriates Republicans here. | ||
| It's just awful. | ||
| So tell us about this situation. | ||
| This actually flows in. | ||
| That bad blood? | ||
| Flows directly into the bad blood we're talking about over the weekend and next week, right? | ||
| They're kind of inextricably linked. | ||
| Tell us what's going on. | ||
|

|
Well, the Texas Speaker's race, it's been an issue for the Republican Party and also for grassroots for years now. | |
| So years ago, some of the Republicans decided they will join the Democrats. | ||
| To select a speaker. | ||
| And then they will give Democrats committee chairmanships to major committees and basically kill all the conservative bills and the priorities. | ||
| Over time, the Republican Party, for the last many years, has been making noise about it. | ||
| Then, in the last convention, they came out and said... | ||
| We're not going to have Democrat chairs anymore. | ||
| We want you to choose a speaker from the Republican caucus and choose a conservative and get all of our priorities done. | ||
| So the caucus met on December 7th, and David Cook, one of the guys who ran for the speaker's office, he won. | ||
| Dustin Burroughs is a Dave Phelan, you know, George Bush, that dynasty whole group. | ||
| The Dave Phelan is a former speaker who... | ||
| Essentially, President Trump endorsed against. | ||
| He won, but won by 400 votes. | ||
| And their group basically said, well, we're just going to walk out of the caucus. | ||
| And they went outside and joined the Democrats and claimed that they're going to be the speaker. | ||
| The issue is, there are 62 Democrats and 88 Republicans. | ||
| All they need to do is take out... | ||
| You know, about 15, 18 Republicans to their side, and they can win the speakership, and then they will go and kill everything that Republican Party and the people want them to do. | ||
| And this is what's been going on. | ||
| So the Republican Party has been pushing back, sending mailers, sending text messages to these representatives' districts. | ||
| And over the past few days ago, I... I reached out to one of the representatives who was on the wrong side of this and said, hey, we're about to send a bunch of mailers and text messages to your district. | ||
| I would love to have a conversation with you. | ||
| And now he's taking that as a threat, a legislative threat or a bribery. | ||
| And he filed charges against me with the Texas Ethics Commission saying the Republican Party chairman is coming after me and it's going to benefit my opponent. | ||
| And my answer is... | ||
| You don't do the right thing. | ||
| It's going to benefit your opponent, which we don't know who that is or who that will be. | ||
| Man, oh man, he didn't understand if the war room comes after him, we'll leave a mark. | ||
| I mean, that's nothing. | ||
| I just want, before we continue on, the Texas House Speaker is one of the most powerful political jobs in all the country, including the federal level. | ||
| Just give a second about, because of the way you got the governorship structured, the Texas House... | ||
| It's where the deals actually get done. | ||
| I mean, the Speaker of the House of Texas is one of the most powerful positions in all politics, is it not? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It is. | |
| It is. | ||
| They decide who gets to be in the committee. | ||
| They also decide which bills goes to what committee. | ||
| They also put the committee chairmanship, which is also the calendars committee. | ||
| Everything is controlled by the Speaker of the House. | ||
| The Senate is very conservative. | ||
| Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, who is also the chairman of the Trump campaign here in Texas, the Senate will pass all the conservative bills, and the House will kill them all. | ||
| Then it doesn't show up to governor's office. | ||
| So it's been a battle. | ||
| It is a very powerful position, and the Democrats and the moderates have used it for many years now. | ||
| So, Mr. George, what is the solution then? | ||
| You're MAGA, you're a Trump supporter of the state's MAGA, the grassroots MAGA. We got this issue. | ||
| What's the appropriate resolution? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, two things. | |
| One is the party is pushing back by sending mailers, getting all the grassroots to... | ||
| I think we just lost him right there. | ||
| See the Bush apparatus cut down? | ||
| I'm just kidding. | ||
| We're going to get to the solution in a second. | ||
| Let's see if we can get him back up. | ||
| It's a fascinating conversation. | ||
| Here's the reason it's fascinating. | ||
| It's fascinating because of all the time and effort's been put down there. | ||
| You saw this directly tied. | ||
| I've been waiting to kind of get this on. | ||
| I figured today was the best day when I saw it this afternoon. | ||
| And look, Abraham George saw the same thing I saw. | ||
| This was a snub. | ||
| In fact, can we play the cold open in its entirety, that part of it, not even cut for the music? | ||
| Do we still have the part where he gets snubbed? | ||
| Can we play that? | ||
| Can we listen to music? | ||
| Let's play the cold open with the music, and then I can go on my rant. | ||
|

| there's no country It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for No religion too I can't | ||
| take any more. | ||
| I can't take any more. | ||
| Do we have, by the way, John Carney, the great John Carney, has also found, if we put in a second, I'll call for it. | ||
| They found Pete Hexas' tattoo in National Cathedral. | ||
| And what planet do you have? | ||
| You know, Jimmy Carter, he's a Southern, he's not just a Baptist, he's a Southern Baptist. | ||
| And if you come from the South, and particularly if you're Roman Catholic, you understand there's a difference between Baptist and Southern Baptist. | ||
| Southern Baptist is Old Testament. | ||
| There is no heaven, no hell, no religion, no nation. | ||
| John Lennon is a degenerate pervert. | ||
| He was so degenerate, he broke up the Beatles, who were also degenerate. | ||
| When he got with Yoko Ono, he became a degenerate's degenerate. | ||
| So degenerate, he broke up those degenerates. | ||
| That's how degenerate he was. | ||
| And they're singing Imagine in the National Cathedral. | ||
| Whoever proved that, whoever brought that forward, a protocol, do they have any protocol anymore? | ||
| If the Carter's wanted that, and who are the two has-been washed-up country music acts? | ||
| Garth Brooks and Tricia Yearwood? | ||
| Didn't Garth Brooks have a couple, three problems? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Let he who has not sin cast the first stone. | ||
| I got that. | ||
| But you have two washed-up country music act up there singing to John Lennon. | ||
| Is that supposed to be cool? | ||
| Is that supposed to connect? | ||
| That's Jimmy Carter, you know, the greatest post-presidency. | ||
| I'm not going to go into Carter's presidency on the day of his funeral. | ||
| I will not. | ||
| I refuse to. | ||
| Let's say he's not the best. | ||
| And this is a young, as a young man, served under him as a naval officer. | ||
| When he was Commander-in-Chief. | ||
| Like I said, he's Commander-in-Chief. | ||
| He called the shots right. | ||
| That's the way the system works. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| Can we play? | ||
| John Carney did find, the great John Carney did find Pete Hegseth. | ||
| I hope this is the leading, first thing they put up on his, let's play, let's put that up right there. | ||
| They found the tattoo was on the floor. | ||
| Great going. | ||
| Maybe gone over there and given a lesson. | ||
| First Crusade. | ||
| Pete Hexas thought of walking. | ||
| That'd be the first thing. | ||
| Pete ought to just rip off his shirt when he sits down for the confirmation hearing. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Give him a flex. | ||
| Pete, give him a flex. | ||
| Tell him where it's from. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| Imagine played at the National Cathedral of these United States. | ||
| Still, last time I looked, Episcopal. | ||
| I think it's High Episcopal, too. | ||
| I think it's got that high altar up there. | ||
| That's just a high Episcopal just Catholicism. | ||
| Instead of sending the take to Rome, you send it to Canterbury. | ||
| The Archbishop, and Henry VIII puts his hand in there, takes a little for the effort. | ||
| Disgusting. | ||
| The music was beautiful. | ||
| That was Be Still My Soul by Katrina von Schliegel from 1697. Off of the musical score is Finlandia. | ||
| 1697. Absolutely beautiful. | ||
| That's the beautiful music, and it had other great choral music there. | ||
| And of course, you've got to have the degenerate imagine, because MSNBC, they're going to be teared up on that, watching that. | ||
| Katie Turr and Nicole Wallace will tear up on that one. | ||
| Okay, short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to be back in the war. | ||
| We're going to go back to Texas. | ||
| I think we've got a technical problem worked out. | ||
| Abraham George next. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Here's your host, Stephen K. | |
| Okay, uh, breaking, um, Natalie's going to be here to go drill down into the fire and the political ramifications, which are going to be substantial in the next hour. | ||
| Breaking just came across. | ||
| It's not 1,000 structures. | ||
| It's over 5,300 structures destroyed in the Los Angeles Fire. | ||
| Actually, they're saying in the Palisades Fire. | ||
| 5,300, not 1,000. | ||
| 5,300. | ||
| Abraham George, so Bush 43 went out of his way to snub and humiliate, try to humiliate President Trump. | ||
| Didn't work, but he went out of his way. | ||
| You have this huge fight with really the remnant. | ||
| It's always the remnant of the Bush operation who thinks they still run Texas, just as Karl Rove. | ||
| So what action, what can this audience do to make sure this thing's taken care of, this thing's sorted out next Tuesday, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I want your audience to go to TexasGOP.org. | |
| We're going to have every person, every representative's name and their phone number listed there on the front page within about an hour. | ||
| And take a look at your representative. | ||
| And if your representative is on the right side, give them a call. | ||
| Thank them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's fine. | |
| If they're on the wrong side, call them to tell them to do the right thing and by supporting David Cook, which is the nominee. | ||
| The second thing is, if their representative is not playing ball, they're not going to do the right thing, call your county party and tell them to censor this person and tell them to have a conversation with them. | ||
| Bring a town hall. | ||
| Talk to other precinct chairs and make sure that they're going to do the right thing or tell them they're going to be primary next time. | ||
| It's very simple. | ||
| Either do the right thing, use the Republican Party name, or don't get on the ballot next time. | ||
| It's very simple. | ||
| That's what I want your audience to do. | ||
| And I think your audience is very powerful, very active. | ||
| They can make it happen. | ||
| Okay, we'll make sure. | ||
| And that's going to be in an hour? | ||
| It's going to be up? | ||
|
unidentified
|
In about 30 minutes or so, it will be up on our front page. | |
| Yes, sir. | ||
| Okay, we'll do that in the second hour. | ||
| Also, I'm going to do it again tomorrow morning and make sure we're going to put it up on screen and walk people through what they have to do. | ||
| Is there a possibility? | ||
| Can you recall in Texas, or you've just got to live with guys, censure them, and then primary them? | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're going to have to censure them and primary them, unfortunately. | |
| Okay. | ||
| That's okay. | ||
| That's the rules. | ||
| What's your social media, sir? | ||
| How do people keep up with you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
For Texas UOP, it is... | |
| Well, I'm Texas GOP, and for me, it's Abraham George, both on X and everywhere else. | ||
| Mr. George, thank you so much from the great state of Texas. | ||
| Thank you, brother. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you, sir. | |
| Appreciate it. | ||
| It's a continual process. | ||
| Remember, this is a process. | ||
| And in Texas, particularly the size victory they delivered from President Trump, and you would think that would make Bush, even if he detested President Trump personally, understood that President Trump... | ||
| Stood for the values of Texas, of what people in Texas were looking at for a leader. | ||
| And then Ted Cruz, a huge win there, nine points. | ||
| I think it was nine, 14 and nine. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| Today in the National Cathedral, a snub, but first Obama, that eased up a little bit, but the one with Bush was blatant, and it was offensive, and it was inappropriate. | ||
| But the music was just, that is a disgrace. | ||
| To play that song in a Christian church, it's outrageous. | ||
| And it was Bishop Barron, I first saw this, because I didn't watch the whole thing. | ||
| I watched about as much as I could take. | ||
| It was Bishop Barron, who's not a hard right winger, that actually brought this up and good on him. | ||
| Had a really good tweet, smart tweet about that. | ||
| We need the Ramparts tomorrow. | ||
| We're going to have to do the confirmations. | ||
| Very important that we put pressure on the Senate to get these confirmations pulled up. | ||
| I think we're going to get Pam Bondi's pulled up and a couple of us, but we need cash. | ||
| So we're going to do that. | ||
| We're going to be in the ramparts tomorrow for that, also for Texas, and a couple, three other things. | ||
| So tomorrow's a workday. | ||
| That's why we can't have you anxious or your time taken away. | ||
| If you want your time really taken away, have your title mess with. | ||
| Have it either taken so they can sell your property or... | ||
| More likely in the case, take out a second on your title, and it kind of appears, you know, out of nowhere, you see this thing, hey, we're not paying the bank on the second. | ||
| Who took a second out? | ||
| Who took $100,000 a second? | ||
| How do we owe $100,000? | ||
| Where'd the $100,000 go? | ||
| That's a possibility. | ||
| You've got to take that down to zero. | ||
| Remember, 80% of your net worth, if you're lucky enough to own a home, is tied up in that home. | ||
