I've always liked Elon, and it's always very surprised. | ||
You saw the words he had for me, the words. | ||
And he hasn't said anything about me that's bad. | ||
I'd rather have him criticize me than the bill, because the bill is incredible. | ||
Elon's upset because we took the EV mandate, which was a lot of money for electric vehicles. | ||
And, you know, they're having a hard time, the electric vehicles. | ||
And they want us to pay billions of dollars in subsidy. | ||
He recommended somebody that he, I guess, knew very well. | ||
I'm sure he respected him, but to run NASA. | ||
And I didn't think it was appropriate. | ||
I can understand why he's upset. | ||
Remember, he was here for a long time. | ||
You saw a man who was very happy when he stood behind the Oval Desk. | ||
unidentified
|
And even with the black eye, I said, do you want a little makeup? | |
We'll get you a little makeup. | ||
But he said, no, I don't think so, which is interesting. | ||
To be honest, I think he misses the place. | ||
unidentified
|
I think he got out there and all of a sudden he wasn't in this beautiful, oval office. | |
And he's got nice offices, too. | ||
But there's something about this one. | ||
Up and pop some popcorn. | ||
It's four o'clock in New York, the alliance between the world's richest man and the world's | ||
It appears that Elon Musk, after donating $277 million of his own money to the Trump campaign, after serving as Donald Trump's political heat shield for the first five months of his second presidency, did so while doing permanent damage to his business empire to the federal government. | ||
And his personal reputation and legacy. | ||
But after all that, even Elon Musk is not immune from the golden rule that for Trump, loyalty is a one-way street. | ||
But Musk is not going quietly into the night. | ||
After days of Musk trashing Donald Trump's signature domestic policy, his big ugly bill, as Elon Musk called it, Trump finally broke his silence. | ||
Watch. | ||
Elon knew the inner workings of this bill better than almost anybody sitting here. | ||
And he only developed the problem when he found out that we're going to have to cut the EV mandate. | ||
He knew every aspect of this bill. | ||
He knew it better than almost anybody. | ||
And he never had a problem until right after he left. | ||
He said the most beautiful things about me. | ||
And he hasn't said bad about me personally, but I'm sure that'll be next. | ||
unidentified
|
Slim, beautiful bill for the win. | |
Slim is the emphasis there. | ||
Keep the good, remove the bad. | ||
Wise words and I couldn't agree more over 2012 and 2013 tweets from Donald Trump ranting about the debts. | ||
And whatever, keep the EV solar incentive cuts in the bill, even though no oil and gas subsidies are touched. | ||
Very unfair, but ditch the mountain of disgusting pork in the bill. | ||
Also false, this bill was never shown to me even once and was passed in the dead of night so fast that almost no one in Congress could even read it. | ||
And then here's the important one. | ||
Without me, Trump would have lost the election. | ||
Dems would control the House. | ||
And the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate. | ||
Such ingratitude. | ||
That's what he followed that up with. | ||
That feels a bit different about this. | ||
Yeah, you're right. | ||
It is personal. | ||
I think it reflects not just what's happened in the last few hours, but what's happened over the last four months. | ||
There's a certain... | ||
And so I think this reflects a certain frustration that had been growing with Elon Musk over these last four months. | ||
They would have figured some way for him to stick around if everything was going really well. | ||
They didn't. | ||
He left. | ||
And so I think, yeah, it reflects something larger than just today. | ||
Let's stop here for a second. | ||
Why does any of this matter? | ||
Right? | ||
Two tarantulas in a bowl. | ||
Why does it matter? | ||
Well, here's why. | ||
When the most powerful person in our government fights with the richest person in the world, we, as a public, get to peer deep inside the most corrupt and superficial alliance in American political history. | ||
And as they claw and strike rhetorically at one another, they affirm our deepest concerns and suspicions. | ||
Trump confirms that Musk was always only in it to enrich his companies, and Musk confirms that Trump was always for sale. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, it's absolutely delicious to watch, and were it not so impactful for the future of the country, you could laugh at it. | |
Bannon is a guy who has defined himself as a thug, and thugs must do thuggish things. | ||
I think that Elon Musk has no idea what he's getting into when he gets in a fight with Steve Bannon over this. | ||
And, you know, under all of this sort of... | ||
There's a very good chance, there's been a lot of reporting, that Elon Musk was not a student when he got a visa. | ||
And when he got his... | ||
If that's true, that is grounds for revoking the citizenship. | ||
It happens all the time. | ||
And under the Trump, that would mean deporting Musk and his children. | ||
You know, you can make a case that one of the reasons Musk is so obsessed with immigration is because he knows this. | ||
So I think that... | ||
I would not bet against Steve Bannon. | ||
I want to deal with the substance of this, and I promise to do that. | ||
But because for Trump, it's never about the substance, I want to stay with with the leading men in Trump's life with you, Stuart Stevens. | ||
The idea that Elon Musk is the alpha only exists. | ||
And what's so amazing to me is that Trumpism has always been transactional for Trump, but we've never seen the public display of someone else getting to grift off Trump's presidency. | ||
Elon Musk feels like the beta for that, right? | ||
A real test case. | ||
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
Pray for our enemies. | ||
unidentified
|
Because we're going medieval on these people. | |
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 line? | ||
unidentified
|
MAGA media. | |
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience. | ||

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

War Room. | |
Here's your host, Stephen K. Vance. | ||
It's Thursday, 5 June, Year of Our Lord, 2025. | ||
I had to step out this morning to go to a meeting that was quite important. | ||
I'll give you details on that later. | ||
But Dave Brett took us home this morning, and wow, I guess that the meeting with the Chancellor of Germany did not totally focus on the kinetic part of the Third World War. | ||
President Trump started talking about his thoughts about the bill and about comments and observations about Elon Musk, and then talked about Elon Musk and his time there. | ||
And of course, Elon Musk was live tweeting at the entire time. | ||
Jack Posobiec joins us, folks. | ||
To say it's devolved from there would be a vast understatement. | ||
This is unprecedented. | ||
It is unprecedented and unnecessary from Elon Musk. | ||
Some of the things he's putting up are just outside the bounds of any, forget civility, but any type of behavior of which I don't want to remind people. | ||
I told folks about that last cut right there. | ||
Stuart Stevens and Nicole Wallace. | ||
We said you don't want to get into a fight with Steve Bannon and, you know, Bannon's going to win this thing or Bannon's going to win. | ||
It was from 31 December of 2024. | ||
Jack Posobiec, get us up to date. | ||
Some of these tweets are calling for President Trump to be impeached, bringing up the, I guess, the Epstein situation. | ||
Many others, even worse, saying President Trump's only got three and a half years left. | ||
He's got 40 years. | ||
Walk me through. | ||
You know Twitter better than anyone. | ||
Walk us through what Elon Musk is saying about the President of the United States, President Trump, right now. | ||
Well, Steve, what can I say? | ||
It's a hot day on X, but I'm staying frosty. | ||
I am maintaining maximum frigidity. | ||
I am sub-zero. | ||
But look, you're seeing a lot of throwdowns here. | ||
Look, this isn't the female-coded MSNBC talk. | ||
No, this is a throwdown. | ||
This is how men communicate. | ||
This is how men talk. | ||
And you've got a situation here where, yes, Elon has been retweeting things, calling for President Trump's impeachment and J.D. Vance to be installed as president. | ||
He said that he's going to be decommissioning the Dragon program. | ||
So taking out SpaceX, President Trump posting that he's going to cut all of Elon's contracts. | ||
I'm not really sure how the libs are taking all of this. | ||
They're not sure if they need to be torching their Teslas or revving their engines right now, revving you with an electric car. | ||
But a lot of this seems to be, I think it's beyond the EV credit at this point. | ||
This is the battle of... | ||
And at the end of the day, you can't have two CEOs of one country or one company. | ||
You can't have two CEOs. | ||
You can't have two presidents. | ||
You can't have two bulls in one field. | ||
And that's what this is coming down to. | ||
Only one of these individuals was elected president of the United States. | ||
And that name is Donald J. Trump. | ||
Yeah. | ||
We got a bull and we got a baby calf. | ||
As I've said, the reason this guy is so dangerous is that he doesn't know anything. | ||
He's a know-it-all. | ||
He knows some engineering. | ||
Don't get me wrong. | ||
I'd give a hat tip for that, but he doesn't know anything about the real world. | ||
Doge was, and for any fanboys that still exist, while you're wrapping up in your cape tonight, understand on Doge, he didn't find any fraud. | ||
There's plenty of fraud out there. | ||
This is President Trump's first complaint. | ||
Was this all BS, right, with the Doge? | ||
The act that President Trump should be taking immediately, I think, when he threatens to take one of the big programs out of SpaceX, President Trump tonight should sign an executive order calling for the Defense to Production Act to be called in SpaceX and seize SpaceX tonight before midnight. | ||
The U.S. government should seize it. | ||
If a guy's going to sit there and start making quotes... | ||
Look, if you're going to deport illegal aliens, you've got to deport illegal aliens. | ||
The good go with the goose and the gander. | ||
They've got to go back to this, as Stuart Stevens talked about, and go through everything about his immigration status. | ||
I happen to believe, given the facts that I've been shown, that he's an illegal alien. | ||
An illegal alien's got to be deported. | ||
Also, this drug use is reported in the New York Times, the drug use in the New York Times. | ||
If that's a fact, that ought to be investigated. | ||
You can't have a security clearance, Jack Posobiec, as you know. | ||
Jack, if somebody in your unit had that type of drug, had that type of drugs and they had a security clearance, what would happen to them, sir? | ||
Well, Steve, we remember that Hunter Biden popped positive, I believe, for cocaine on his very first weekend in the Navy Reserve. | ||
And even at that time, I don't remember if his father, I think his father was still the vice president at the time. | ||
He wasn't president yet or auto-pen president yet. | ||
And Hunter Biden was summarily separated from the United States Navy over his very first weekend drilling as a Navy Reservist over popping positive. | ||
of. | ||
Pending that investigation. | ||
Also, as I said on the Tim Pool show in Matt Gaetz's office, I think over a year ago, right? | ||
That was over a year ago where I said, hey, he's an agent of influence of the Chinese Communist Party because of his financial relationship with Tesla. | ||
That should be fully investigated. | ||
unidentified
|
President Trump is a bull. | |
Elon Musk is a baby calf. | ||
Okay? | ||
And now it's time for the good of the country, the Republic. | ||
Forget MAGA and the Republican Party. | ||
This is a national security issue now. | ||
It's raised to the level of national security issue of a very unstable individual that's out saying very, I think, dangerous things about the President of the United States. | ||
And he has to be investigated, should be investigated immediately. | ||
And all contracts, all contracts associated, all government contracts should be immediately suspended. | ||
Given an investigation. | ||
Jack Posobiec is going to stick with us. | ||
Jack's all over the Twitter. | ||
This fight really metastasized when President Trump was just walking through Dave Brat about the big, beautiful bill that Elon's been attacking. | ||
Johnson just tweets out, oh, I can't, I can't, Johnson keeps saying I'm calling him, but I can't get on the phone. | ||
No, please, Johnson, don't make yourself bigger poly pockets than you already are. | ||
Don't tell the world he won't take your call. | ||
You're Speaker of the frickin' House, dude. | ||
Start acting like it. | ||
If the guy won't take your call, don't tell the world about it. | ||
And don't send him any more information. | ||
He's got all the information. | ||
Tell him to pick up Politico. | ||
Tell him to go to the Hill. | ||
They've got plenty of good information there. | ||
Go to Gateway Pundit. | ||
Go to Breitbart. | ||
Matt Bolin's team is breaking it down. | ||
Give him Dave Brat's cell number. | ||
Have him text Dave Brat. | ||
Go to Getter and get Dave Brat's charts. | ||
That's what he needs to do. | ||
You don't need to send him inside information. | ||
Do you think that's going to change his mind after what he said about President Trump this afternoon? | ||
unidentified
|
A bull and a baby calf. | |
Jack Bosovic. | ||
Dave Bratt. | ||
And yours truly. | ||
We'll break it all down in a moment. | ||
unidentified
|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann. | |
Bratt, you got some very specific thoughts about this, right? | ||
You know, I just don't like this fight because what it reveals about the structure of our country right now, you got oligarchs and monopolies, right? | ||
The Wall Street Journal, I wanted to go over this morning. | ||
They're all writing about free markets. | ||
There's no free markets. | ||
There's the Magnificent Seven. | ||
Seven firms own about 35, 40% of the S&P 500. | ||
Elon's genius. | ||
No one's talking about it. | ||
But what did President Trump actually do here? | ||
Right? | ||
I can't There's a budget debate. | ||
And then it blows up into this. | ||
And the problem is he's still the president of the United States, whether you like him or not. | ||
And Elon says, I want to do what's good for the country. | ||
Well, do that. | ||
Show respect for the presidency. | ||
If you've got a problem on ideas, debate the ideas. | ||
But to devolve it into threats against the presidency, the executive, which has probably got too much power in the first place, right? | ||
We want to bring it back down to the Congress, back down to the people, to the states. | ||
And so to have someone of this magnitude taking it at the president, and I don't think that route's going to be too successful. | ||
Dave Brack clearly has not had his number two pencil out of my Article 2 chats. | ||
This is what happens to these oligarchs. | ||
They're out of control, they have too much money, and they think they live off government contracts. | ||
The problem is, the guy, don't give me the entrepreneur stuff. | ||
Everything he's associated with is a government contract. | ||
You pull the government contracts, and we'll see how tough this guy is. | ||
And that's what should be done right now. | ||
He's challenged the President of the United States, and it's a national security issue. | ||
Here's why. | ||
Oh, I don't know. | ||
We're kind of in the beginning stages of the kinetic part of the Third World War and the Eurasian landmass. | ||
I think we ought to be sending messages of strength to Putin, to Xi, to the mullahs in Tehran. | ||
We should not be allowed money to think they can push people around, particularly push the office of the president around. | ||
And the President of the United States around. | ||
And I think this is why it needs dramatic action. | ||
I would pull all the contracts immediately. | ||
I would sign an executive order to get the Defense Production Act installed about SpaceX. | ||
He said he was going to take down their primary product. | ||
Fine. | ||
Do what you want to do. | ||
But we're seizing it tonight at midnight. | ||
And the government's going to step in and manage this thing for a while until we can get some stable management that meets the level of a government contract. | ||
Also, the drug thing's got to be investigated. | ||
Illegal aliens got to be investigated. | ||
We're going to need a real investigation about who forced the flag officers and the guys of the Pentagon to prep a top-secret brief on the China war plan. | ||
How did that go down? | ||
We ought to have an investigation of that and go all the way back to who – The greatest enemy this country's ever had, the greatest existential threat it's ever had. | ||
Posobiec, your thoughts and ideas. | ||
Well, actually, Steve, there's some information that I've known about the inauguration and that situation. | ||
So we remember that she didn't go, but Charlie Kirk, who did go there, actually told me something about this. | ||
And we talked about it on our, They were using electronic devices. | ||
I said, Charlie, they were probably scanning all of your cell phones. | ||
So you're in that room and you got Bezos there, you got Elon there, you got Zuckerberg there, you got everyone else there, all of the incoming national security officials. | ||
The incoming cabinet, they were more than likely sucking up all the signals that they had from cell phones, from PII, trying to hack cell phones, all the different things that they could do with that level of individuals. | ||
So now you've got backdoor access directly to all of them. | ||
This is a huge, huge security threat. | ||
It's something that, unfortunately, I think happened because of the invitation of the CCP officials here, which I do believe was made in good faith, but at the same time, you can't deal with those people in good faith. | ||
Now, let's flip back on this. | ||
Look, I care about the debt. | ||
This is the war room. | ||
You talk about the debt all the time here. | ||
Stephen K. Bannon has taught us about the debt markets and the global finance and how this all works and how it all is instrictly linked. | ||
But if you want to keep your country, you need mass deportations. | ||
And mass deportations, by the way, and I'll check with Brad's charts on all of this, mass deportations actually help out with the debt issues. | ||
Why? | ||
Because 43% of immigrants So all of this focus on the debt has been on the projections of the supply side. | ||
Well, what if you reduce the demand side through mass deportations, through dealing with these programs, dealing with the individuals who are here? | ||
It makes so much sense. | ||
I haven't heard any of these guys talk about it. | ||
But what the real issue is here, Steve, is this. | ||
You broke the chain of command. | ||
There's one president of the United States. | ||
There is one commander-in-chief, someone who's an SGE, an advisor, a friend, all of these things. | ||
That's great. | ||
But there is a chain of command. | ||
And in the chain of command of the United States government, the president comes first, period, full stop. | ||
Yeah, Poe, so I quoted you this morning on that, on savings to entitlements, all that. | ||
Great work the other day. | ||
Those comments are great. | ||
And then also, the weight of the world is on the presidency, right? | ||
He's responsible. | ||
Elon is not responsible morally, politically, for the real outcomes of all these interrelations between all these moving pieces. | ||
He just gets to do cheap shots. | ||
He's another government contractor. | ||
I don't want to get off thesis, but there's a lot of notable names Hey, we have a debt problem. | ||
Hey, we ought to be building up the defense, right? | ||
Like he's running for president now. | ||
It's easy to say that after it's already on the media. | ||
The immigration problem has been around for a decade and now people are just noticing it. | ||
But you're wandering away here. | ||
running around. | ||
Yeah, no, I know. | ||
This is not about... | ||
You can make comments. | ||
This is not what this is about. | ||
He promised and committed. | ||
He was given access. | ||
He had admiration. | ||
He had resources. | ||
They did everything to support him. | ||
He told the president, "I'm gonna find two trillion dollars in cuts for this year in waste, fraud, and abuse." The president said fine. | ||
Then he came back to a trillion. | ||
President said fine. | ||
President had his back, defended him, promoted the cars when he was getting attacked, had his attorney general defend this guy. | ||
At every step of the way, And what he did, he gave false information. | ||
This was not just incompetence. | ||
What did Scott Besson call him? | ||
Scott Besson called him a fraud in the Oval Office outside. | ||
That's why Elon attacked him, because he called him a fraud. | ||
He said, "Hey, you committed to the President a trillion dollars. | ||
You got nothing. | ||
We've been here for five months and you've been performance art all over town for yourself. | ||
Your chainsaw and your wraparound sunglasses all for yourself." Not for the country, not for the president, not for MAGA, not for the American people, for yourself. | ||
And then he had every act as nice as I didn't see the bill. | ||
Nobody read the bill. | ||
What are you talking about? | ||
Everybody had this bill up there. | ||
You could have read it and you knew the numbers. | ||
You didn't need to read 9,000 pages. | ||
The math was there. | ||
We debated every day on the war. | ||
We talked about this ad nauseum. | ||
Of course he saw the numbers, and people talked to him about the numbers. | ||
He had no problem with the numbers. | ||
Johnson, Polly Pocket said he never called me, and they talked every day, never talked to me about that. | ||
The president said he never made one comment. | ||
He had no problem about that. | ||
Now, when he doesn't get the EVs, and it's not just about the EVs. | ||
President Trump, the Axios story said it, and President Trump said it today, he said, hey, no offense, I kind of fired him. | ||
I let him go. | ||
He wanted to extend. | ||
I wouldn't extend him. | ||
Okay, then it got personal with him, and now he comes out, he's attacking to kill the bill. | ||
He's not saying they're going, hey, I think Ron Johnson's got some really good ideas. | ||
I think Mike Lee's got some ideas. | ||
My point is, Jamie Dyer and everybody, people make comments, we make comments. | ||
There's comments all over, observations all over. | ||
This is not what this is. | ||
He went and then personally, without informing the President of the United States, who he had told us, hey, I'm not gay. | ||
But I love this man. | ||
I love this man more than any man can love a man. | ||
Remember that? | ||
I love this man. | ||
I love this man more than anybody can love a man. | ||
I know it sounded gay, but he told us up front, I'm not gay. | ||
Okay? | ||
But I love this man. | ||
That guy. | ||
The love doctor. | ||
Right? | ||
What does he do? | ||
He doesn't inform the president. | ||
He comes out of nowhere. | ||
He's putting the kill bill thing out there. | ||
Kill the bill. | ||
Not saying we need some changes here. | ||
Ron Johnson's got some good ideas. | ||
I think Josh Hawley's got a couple of three, the guys in the Senate. | ||
Now I've got Andy Biggs. | ||
I've got the Hawks of the Freedom Caucus saying, hey, I think we've got some stuff that we want to change. | ||
Of course, the taxes don't expire until December 31st. | ||
That's the day we have to do it. | ||
We know we have to do it. | ||
And people have a lot of work, and people in this town are working around the clock. | ||
Some are working for the lobbyists. | ||
Some are working for the populists. | ||
Elon Musk is working for himself. | ||
President Trump empowered him more than anyone's ever been empowered in this government. | ||
Had his back. | ||
Promoted this guy. | ||
And when people like me, who said, you're making a mistake, right? | ||
This is a bad guy. | ||
He's going to turn on you. | ||
He's not with us. | ||
He's also totally incompetent. | ||
And President Trump said, hey, give this guy a shot. | ||
And I trust President Trump's judgment enough to say, as people know, I backed off a little. | ||
Right? | ||
Not a lot. | ||
I packed off a little. | ||
But it's not about observations. | ||
As soon as he didn't think he ran the deal or got the adoration, right, that he was starting to be saying, where's the trillion dollars, right? | ||
What is this? | ||
He turned on President Trump. | ||
He turned on MAGA. | ||
But most importantly, he turned on the country and the American people. | ||
And President Trump just had enough of it. | ||
And he forced his way back in to have like some last day. | ||
They didn't want to do that. | ||
But fine. | ||
And then as soon as President Trump comes out today, and President Trump's saying it in the nicest way possible about the bill, right? | ||
The bill, the bing, bing, bing, bing. | ||
The guy gets up and starts tweeting the most vicious stuff you could tweet. | ||
So all the fanboys defend this. | ||
He accused President Trump of basically being in a group with those pedophiles on the island. | ||
He called for As hard as we've worked in all the years that we've worked in this audience's work, some punk is going to sit there and go, oh, he should be impeached. | ||
And hey, as sure as the turning of the earth. | ||
If those progressives rub up on him and say, hey, they're never going to buy the Teslas, we're going to buy the Teslas, they rub up on him, he'll write a $500 million check for Hakeem Jeffries. | ||
He'll be across the thing looking to impeach President Trump, looking to help steal the 28th election, looking to imprison President Trump. | ||
So here's my point. | ||
Let's get ahead of it. | ||
And let's get ahead of it tonight. | ||
There's lots to be done. | ||
This guy is all over the map. | ||
He's right. | ||
But he's emblematic of these oligarchs. | ||
All of them have the maturity of a nine-year-old, and they're dangerous. | ||
They're dangerous not just to the President of the United States. | ||
More importantly, they're dangerous to this republic and the citizens of this Constitutional Republic. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann. | ||
Okay, we've got Jack. | ||
Jack Lasovic's got a bounce. | ||
Jack got a better gig than doing the 5 o 'clock war room here. | ||
So Jack, give us your closing thoughts on this Twitter fight you've seen today. | ||
Steve, I have duties and responsibilities. | ||
Duties and responsibilities that call. | ||
Look, you know, you got a situation here where in many cases, I think that this was something that was always going to be inevitable. | ||
I think that it would have happened at some point, regardless of this bill specifically. | ||
But at the end of the day, whether it's debt or whatever issue you want to talk about, mass immigration, and I've always said this, look. | ||
The reason that this is the MAGA movement and Donald Trump's movement, and we are almost exactly 10 years away from the golden escalator moment, so it's going to be the 10-year anniversary coming up very soon here. | ||
The reason that it's that movement and not the Jeb Bush movement and the Jeb Bush presidency, it ain't'cause tax cuts, it ain't'cause of balance of the budget. | ||
No, it is because of borders. | ||
Those are the three issues that make up the backbone of the MAGA populist movement, period, full stop. | ||
But hang on. | ||
It's also a guy. | ||
Listen, this is why, and I say this as a student of history, and someone who's been very involved in this and has stayed, gone to prison, all of it. | ||
It's because of also a man, right? | ||
The country... | ||
He was the indispensable figure. | ||
Lincoln was the indispensable figure for the rebirth of the nation, right? | ||
General Washington at the birth, Lincoln at the rebirth, and the reclaiming of the nation and the rejuvenation of the nation is Donald Trump. | ||
Without Trump coming down that escalator, folks, I had a ringside seat. | ||
And I will tell you, it ain't Elon Musk. | ||
They come and go all the time. | ||
They're a dime a dozen. | ||
OK, and all the fanboys, you're just you're just you look at Tony Stark, pick your comic books back up and go back to your basement room and sit in the corner for a while. | ||
Donald Trump is a man and he stood in the breach when everybody else would have wilted. | ||
And he made the one of the greatest profiles in courage. | ||
And Donald Trump's very imperfect. | ||
I ain't saying he's perfect. | ||
He's very imperfect. | ||
It's his imperfections and rising above them that makes him great. | ||
He consciously made a decision in January and February and March of 2021 to come back and say that election was stolen. | ||
I know it was stolen. | ||
I cannot rest until we make that right. | ||
We set things right. | ||
There's an illegitimate regime under Biden and I will go. | ||
And he went through hell for years. | ||
The first two years besides this show and Jack Posobiec, Real America's Voice and a handful of podcasts, the Breitbart guys, it was totally ignored. | ||
By Fox and the Wall Street Journal and the National Review and all of them. | ||
Okay? | ||
He made a conscious decision. | ||
A conscious decision. | ||
I know they're going to try to bankrupt me. | ||
I know they're going to try to smear me. | ||
I know they're going to try to take down my family. | ||
And I don't have any power. | ||
They got the deep state. | ||
They got the big tech bros. | ||
They got lords of easy money. | ||
They got the media. | ||
They got everybody. | ||
And I'm making a decision. | ||
I'm coming back. | ||
You know what I got? | ||
I got my followers. | ||
My people. | ||
The deplorables. | ||
Right? | ||
The hobbits. | ||
And the hobbits got around him and lifted him on their shoulder and said, "You're our guy." Yes, because it's about the sovereignty of the nation and sealing the border and shipping 13 million out of here. | ||
Let me change that. | ||
13 million in one because Elon Musk is illegal and he's got to go too, okay? | ||
You're going to ship these other people home? | ||
Let's start with the South Africans, okay? | ||
And I've got a couple of others that could go too, but he's illegal. | ||
Deport immediately. | ||
This is what he did. | ||
No forever wars. | ||
We're going to set the finances in the country right. | ||
We're going to stop the invasion of the country, and we're going to ship out all the illegal aliens. | ||
And people got around, and the longest of long shots, we won. | ||
Now, we picked up, as you say on Wall Street, a little deal baggage. | ||
Okay, Elon wrote a big check, no doubt about it. | ||
In Wall Street terms, it's deal baggage. | ||
You have to just deal with it over time. | ||
And this is why Trump is a hero, and Elon Musk is not. | ||
And Elon Musk and his little, you know, jumping around the stage on ketamine and everything like that with MAGA cheering him on and he's doing the thing and going to inauguration and he's a big shot and he's getting all that adulation. | ||
He doesn't understand. | ||
That's for Trump. | ||
That's for Trump. | ||
Because Trump's the man that's got in the arena and did it and risked everything, including going to prison for 300 years. | ||
We'll see how good Elon Musk takes a little of that pressure because I happen to think a little of that pressure might be coming. | ||
Jack Posobiec, what's your social media? | ||
Where do you go, sir? | ||
What's that, Jack Posobiec? | ||
We're going to be up on the Thought Crime Podcast. | ||
We're going to go live. | ||
We're going to drop that a little bit earlier tonight. | ||
And Steve, I'll just say it. | ||
There's a reason. | ||
That they've been trying to stop Trump for all of these 10 years because he's the one man who could do what he did. | ||
There's a reason they tried to strip him from the ballot to stop him from running. | ||
There's a reason they tried to bankrupt him, to try to imprison him, and tried to have his head blown off live on CNN. | ||
We all know it. | ||
It's because Donald J. Trump is singularly the one man for this time of this century that could save the American Republic. | ||
Brother, thank you so much. | ||
Good luck on your podcast. | ||
Given the 10 years that starts on the 15th, the day after the 250th anniversary of the Army, the big parade, the celebration we're going to have, Dave, what really gets into my craw today is the audacity to sit there and talk about impeaching Trump, knowing what Hakeem Jeffries would do. | ||
That is someone that doesn't understand our movement, doesn't understand the people in our movement, and don't understand what our people have gone through for 10 years. | ||
Remember, it was hard at the beginning. | ||
When Trump was mocked and ridiculed and dismissed, particularly by Fox when they tried to take him out in their very first debate in 2015, 45 days after he came down the escalator, first week of June. | ||
You know, Megyn Kelly, Brent Baer, all of them. | ||
We've kind of made amends with Megyn at the time. | ||
I don't think it was her choice. | ||
It was Murdoch's choice that you see in the Wall Street Journal every day. | ||
But the audacity to call for his impeachment, everything that guy's done for you, everything he did to promote you, your failures, and your calling for his impeachment. | ||
And Hakeem Jeffries, and knowing what Hakeem Jeffries will do, and with all the programs that we do, right, and he's sitting there saying I'm a big MAGA guy, Hakeem Jeffries would destroy everything. | ||
It would make also the next two years absolute torture. | ||
Yeah, I'm not making any judgments, but this is where the Judeo-Christian West comes in, right? | ||
There's a transcendent aspect to this about being thankful to God above, right? | ||
And that thankfulness results in respect for the country. | ||
And the country is we the people. | ||
And I am thankful. | ||
You know, I had tremendous friendships. | ||
The people that came and worked for me, they traveled hours, days, walked, did everything. | ||
And I don't think he understands that piece. | ||
The people he's putting down right now are in the $100 million range, right? | ||
It's not about him and having this pithy little argument. | ||
It might be fun, but he doesn't understand what's going on in the world right now, right? | ||
There's a kinetic war of major proportions going on right now. | ||
We have the bond market erupt. | ||
We got a border crisis. | ||
We got a rule of law problem. | ||
We got a judiciary that's out of whack. | ||
We got a second Article II debate between me and you coming up some other time, I guess. | ||
But he doesn't get the significance, the moral significance. | ||
Of what it means to love, right? | ||
To love God, to love your country. | ||
It appears to me, right? | ||
All political views are my own. | ||
But to make those comments and to crash the only guy who's standing in the breach on all these issues, right? | ||
Without him, like Jack just said, it's toast. | ||
Let me be blunt about something else that we talk about every day. | ||
Well, President Trump takes a morning call from Xi. | ||
He has a call yesterday with Putin. | ||
Hour and a half call Putin. | ||
Hour and a half call with Xi. | ||
Two of the toughest hombres in history. | ||
We're on the cusp right now, ladies and gentlemen, of a war. | ||
We're in the early stages of the kinetic part. | ||
If Trump is the peacemaker and we can't put it to bed and try to negotiate this thing, this war will be more brutal and more savage and more property loss and more people loss and more lives destroyed and more families destroyed and more kids destroyed than World War I and II combined. | ||
So he's got that. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
He's also got the court trying to chop block him on everything, and every day they're giving him legal briefs, and they're trying to bind him up, and you can't do anything, you're not Commander Chief, you can't send the bad hombres out of here, you can't deport anybody. | ||
Every day, hundreds of briefs, lawyers running out of the Oval Office talking about the briefs, and every court, 200 lawsuits, and every day they're filing something else. | ||
Then he's got the big beautiful bill. | ||
He had to go, as President of the United States for the first time in the history of his republic, had to go up to Capitol Hill to talk to the conference, to whip it himself. | ||
Because Johnson and Emerson are too incompetent to do it. | ||
And quite frankly, the bill is kind of all over the map. | ||
It's what we got. | ||
It's being made better by people right now. | ||
There's going to be a lot of fights about that. | ||
Trump's got to go up and do that. | ||
Then yesterday he's got to call the Senate Finance Committee down to the White House. | ||
This guy works 20 hours a day, and these aren't small problems. | ||
It's not problems we face here at The Warman. | ||
It's not the problems in your life. | ||
The problems in your life are big for you, and we know that. | ||
Like, our problems are big for us. | ||
He's working at a world historical level of problems and solutions that'll set the country for the next 50, 60, 70 years and set the world, where maybe 100 million people die or they don't. | ||
This is the pressure on the guy. | ||
And to have the audacity to send these tweets out and to say, I want him impeached. | ||
No, he's only here for three and a half years. | ||
I think Elon Musk said, I'm there for 40. Well, bro, I hope you know how to work in a prison cell for 40. Okay? | ||
Because don't think you're just going to come after Trump and people around Trump and people understand what Trump's been through and understand what he's going through today. | ||
Think about your own life. | ||
Think about what this guy deals with. | ||
Well, I did my hour-and-a-half call with Putin, right, where I know this guy already is livid because his strategic bombers were hit, and they're going to hit back because these are the Russians, okay? | ||
And you got Xi, who I would argue is the most powerful emperor in the history of China, and has been around for 10,000 freaking years. | ||
And you're doing him. | ||
And when you finish that, you walk into the Germans. | ||
I think I remember them from the 20th century, right? | ||
The Germans are here. | ||
And they got all kind of issues and need all kind of help. | ||
And they're sitting there. | ||
You got to defend this. | ||
You got to do this. | ||
You got to do that. | ||
And they've done the Green News scam. | ||
Dave Walsh tells you every day. | ||
It's one of the reasons the country's imploding. | ||
Trump's got to deal with that. | ||
Every second of every day, the insolvable problems come to his desk. | ||
And you think that someone who lied to him about a trillion dollar cut and gave air cover to this group of clowns up here so they didn't have to cut anything, then, oh, well, he came to our conference, told us it was going to be a trillion dollars of waste, fraud, and abuse. | ||
Oops. | ||
unidentified
|
Oops. | |
And then, when you attack the bill, and not to make positive, constructive changes, which, yes. | ||
The bill needs that. | ||
This audience knows that. | ||
People know that. | ||
Ron Johnson knows it. | ||
We've had him on. | ||
People are working on it. | ||
Some things people are going to like. | ||
Some other things are not like. | ||
I'm banging the drum every day to raise taxes on the wealthy. | ||
I think it's going to work, but I don't know if it's going to work. | ||
But you're certainly not going to sit there where the guy's got all this pressure and say, oh, we ought to impeach him and put somebody else in right now. | ||
This is about the immaturity. | ||
And now you've got the thing with oligarchs. | ||
They've got this kind of money, the immaturity that come after you. | ||
And this is why a guy that stood in the breach like Trump only comes along once in a century if then. | ||
Most countries in the world don't have a General Washington. | ||
They don't have an Abraham Lincoln. | ||
They don't have a Donald Trump. | ||
This is why a guy like this is incredible. | ||
And if you look at this journey that we've taken starting on the 15th of June. | ||
You see it. | ||
I tell you what, hang on, hang on. | ||
We're going to go to the break. | ||
I'm going to turn the mic over. | ||
Brat, you're in the war room, dude. | ||
You've got to grab the mic. | ||
Don't sit here. | ||
Don't think by being the philosopher over there. | ||
We need some wisdom. | ||
I want to thank Birch Gold. | ||
One, not just for sponsoring the show, but more importantly, to making information accessible so that you can come to your own conclusions, not just about investing in gold. | ||
What they try to do is show you the financial system and why gold has been a hedge for 5,000 years of turbulence. | ||
One thing you see about, two things you can talk about when you study history. | ||
Human nature never changes, right? | ||
You go back to the beginning, just like now, human nature has never changed. | ||
And number two, Gold and precious metals have been a hedge against times of turbulence. | ||
That's kind of the two constants. | ||
Birchgold.com slash bandit. | ||
End of the dollar empire. | ||
The road to Rio. | ||
Check it out. | ||
Brat with me on the other side. | ||
unidentified
|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Vann. | |
You've got some thoughts about my rant, um... | ||
Dr. Bratt? | ||
Yeah, well, you implied and said what Trump's daily schedule looks like. | ||
He's got to face down and have a phone call with Putin for an hour, then she for an hour. | ||
Two of the most powerful people that ever lived on Earth. | ||
This is the providential nature and aspect of what I was getting at. | ||
I don't know who, besides President Trump, Is equipped and been prepared and been put in that seat, right? | ||
There's a Romans 13 thing. | ||
God does put people in power for certain reasons. | ||
And Elon is equipped by God with certain gifts as well, but he's got to know his lane. | ||
And if he doesn't look upstairs and ask, and I'm not judging him here, right? | ||
It's not my place to judge anybody. | ||
But he's not equipped with those talents. | ||
And so Trump's got the overwhelming weight of the world. | ||
The intelligence agencies have been off for 30 years. | ||
Our CIA, FBI, DOD, all of it, the deep state USAID, the mainstream media, the CIA cutouts across the media, the thousands of NGOs all working against President Trump, all working against the American people. | ||
And finally we get our chance. | ||
So Elon, you know, I just... | ||
You know, suck it up and get back to it and tell Trump I'm on your side again. | ||
And we all believe in it. | ||
It's impossible. | ||
Please stop. | ||
Please stop. | ||
You can't... | ||
I'm sorry. | ||
You can't walk this stuff back. | ||
You can't walk the Epstein's back. | ||
You can't correct it. | ||
unidentified
|
And make it. | |
Yeah. | ||
Well, I don't think it's going to happen. | ||
I've got to send you to the tough enough. | ||
I'm going to take you out of liberty for a while. | ||
I'm not hopeful. | ||
You're going to stay here in the carriage house. | ||
Okay, I'm taking Brat under advisement here. | ||
He's going to Bannon Boot Camp. | ||
Call Mo Bannon and ask how that turns out. | ||
It's a miracle. | ||
I'm asking for a miracle. | ||
No, no. | ||
He crossed the Rubicon. | ||
He's a grown man. | ||
He crossed the Rubicon. | ||
You can take back stuff on the budget and the numbers and stuff like that. | ||
Kill the bill gets tough, but you can take back things like that. | ||
But when you put out some of the trash and garbage he put out on a man, like I said, that's got all the pressure in the world, and the one thing that we ought to try to do, right? | ||
I mean, you know here, in this thing, we deal with one one-thousandth of what the president does, and the information we deal with is overwhelming, coming from all the different, you know, everything. | ||
He's dealing with, at the highest level, the most highest level, and the hardest, toughest players. | ||
Because every one of them is a hammer, right? | ||
Every one of them is cunning and trying to get stuff. | ||
I mean, the easiest thing he deals with is 100 times harder than the hardest thing anybody else deals with. | ||
That's what we ought to be thinking about. | ||
Chris Hoare, you're here. | ||
Thank you, brother, for coming in. | ||
And you've got a special for the Warren Posse. | ||
And now more than ever, we need one. | ||
What do you got for us, brother? | ||
Well, thanks, Steve. | ||
And I certainly do. | ||
Today, whilst we see a lot of people raising prices, Steve, At Sat123.com. | ||
Not only do we keep prices the same, but we're offering a sale that we've never offered before just for the Warren Posse. | ||
So today, you can get a free satellite phone, either an Iridium 9555 or an iSat phone 2 with activation. | ||
And we're going to also give you a free bulletproof Faraday backpack, which can keep you safe and keep your kids safe should the worst case scenario happen. | ||
And then on top of that, if you call in at 941-841-941-941. | ||
941-841-0844. | ||
You can prepay. | ||
Your first bill is going to be for a month, but you can prepay for any time up to a year and get an extra 10% off your entire bill. | ||
And that's a complete first for us, Steve, a Warren special. | ||
And the phone number is 941-841-0844. | ||
Or you can also check us out, of course, at sat123.com. | ||
But, Steve, we're coming into hurricane season. | ||
Chris, real quickly, tell the audience, take 30 seconds. | ||
Why do you need one of these sad phones? | ||
People say, "Hey, I got all this money. | ||
"I got all these beautiful phones in front of me. | ||
Well, look, if the emergency happens that we're all dreading, right, like if we get a hurricane and we get the wildfires in California, you know, whatever it is, if our power grid gets hacked, just like it did and took out the entire country of Spain and half of Portugal just a few months ago. | ||
When that happens, the cellular communications networks go down. | ||
The internet goes down. | ||
Everything is offline. | ||
And so you are completely in the dark unless you have a satellite phone. | ||
A satellite phone, Steve, does not rely on any kind of infrastructure, doesn't rely on the power grid or anything else. | ||
It works completely independently. | ||
So wherever you are on Earth, whether it's downtown Denver like myself, or you're in the middle of the ocean, or you're in the middle of the country, you can always make a call or receive a call to or from any phone and send a receiver text to or from any phone. | ||
So you are going to be able to reach out for help in an emergency should you need it. | ||
And Steve, these phones aren't tracked either like your cell phone is. | ||
Perfect. | ||
Do me a favor, one more time. | ||
Where do they go to talk to you guys today, right now? | ||
Because you always run out of these things quickly. | ||
Yes, we do. | ||
And the number is 941-841-0844. | ||
That's 941-841-0844. | ||
Or check out sat123.com. | ||
But Steve, this is a today-only offer. | ||
The free sat phone with activation, the free bulletproof backpack, and 10% off your first bill. | ||
Whether you want to pay for a month, a standard, or two, or just up to a year, we're going to give you an additional 10% off for being in the Warren Posse. | ||
And we really appreciate all of your business out there. | ||
No, I appreciate you guys doing this all the time for the war. | ||
They love it. | ||
They always sell out. | ||
Thank you, sir. | ||
Thank you, Chris Orr. | ||
Thanks so much, Steve. | ||
In the next hour, I've been playing this for a while, and we're going to do it, even though it's a heated news day. | ||
We've got plenty of time to get this tomorrow. | ||
When we come back, we're going to have a cruise missile. | ||
A real cruise missile. | ||
No, I'm not aiming at a SpaceX. | ||
That's not today. | ||
Kevin Zinger. | ||
Who is a guy I've known for 40 years. | ||
I was with him at Goldman Sachs, and one of the guys that hired him, and he's a genius inventor. | ||
He's got an incredible system that we're going to talk about that for some aspects, particularly defense, can rapidly bring manufacturing back to the United States and actually put up a wall of steel if we need it. | ||
Relatively quickly against the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
Where did they go to get you? | ||
Yeah, Brad Economics, Getter and X, all the charts from today are already posted and go check them out. | ||
Bring your young ones to study. | ||
Study them. | ||
What is this forgiveness thing, man? | ||
No, not cheap grace. | ||
Not Bonhoeffer. | ||
Fix it. | ||
Fix it. | ||
Not say you're sorry. | ||
Fix it. | ||
I'm going to send you out there and have you fix it. | ||
I've got a way to fix it. | ||
Not your way to fix it. | ||
I've got a way to fix it. | ||
We're going to fix it permanently. | ||
It's going to be a permanent fix. | ||
Can't mess around with this. | ||
Country's about to go to war. | ||
About to have something bigger in the Third World War. | ||
We've got debt ceiling. | ||
We've got debt. | ||
You've got this whole mess we've got to get sorted out. | ||
You got everybody up here fighting. | ||
Trump. | ||
Poor Trump. | ||
Going up to the Capitol Hill. | ||
He's doing Tom Emerson and Johnson's job. | ||
He's doing everybody's job. | ||
Can somebody try to take a burden off this guy's shoulders? | ||
He's got the weight of the world on his shoulders. | ||
He's one man. | ||
This is why Lincoln, Washington, and Trump. | ||
This is why the country's special. | ||
We have been blessed by Almighty God to have leaders like that. | ||
And you've got to have the leaders back, even though we disagree with a bunch of stuff, the president. | ||
But you've got to have us back. | ||
Short break. | ||
We're coming back with a cruise missile in the war room. |
