PD, our local PD, to protect our own National Guard because they're being used upon. | |
Show some decency. | ||
Show some humanity. | ||
More importantly, act like the commander-in-chief. | ||
This chaos is manufactured, and it's my job as governor, working with local law enforcement, to clean up their mess. | ||
I can't emphasize enough the level of fear and terror that is in Angelenos right now. | ||
He talked about violent criminals. | ||
Drug dealers. | ||
You go from a drug dealer to chasing people through the parking lot of a Home Depot where there's day laborers working. | ||
This entire situation is what leaves us believing that we're being used as a test case. | ||
unidentified
|
F*** you! | |
The response of the American people to it has been exactly what you'd think. | ||
I mean, bigger protests than ever in Los Angeles. | ||
The solidarity protests that I just listed all day Sunday in all those cities all across the country. | ||
Today, solidarity protests in Atlanta, across the street from Atlanta's immigration court building. | ||
Solidary protests today in Baltimore. | ||
Solidary protests today in Boston and also in Chicago. | ||
In Tampa, Florida today, there was a huge solidarity protest. | ||
In Raleigh, North Carolina. | ||
In Washington, D.C. today, there were protests outside the Justice Department headquarters. | ||
And when people stand up and protest, what we are learning over and over again in this administration is that protest works. | ||
And one of the ways that it works is that it puts steel in the spine of the political opposition in this country. | ||
For elected Democrats, it clarifies things for them. | ||
It shows them that the more they themselves push back as elected officials, the more support they will have from their own constituents. | ||
A sort of virtuous circle, right? | ||
Amid this primal surge of protests, this moral revulsion and rejection of what Trump is doing, I mean, you see the elected Democrats stepping up and standing up, too. | ||
unidentified
|
In the context of the massive military parade that Donald Trump is throwing for himself in Washington, D.C. this coming weekend to mark his birthday as well as the anniversary, the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army, Donald Trump craves and always has craved sort of militarized shows of force. | |
That is endemic to who he is as a political figure. | ||
He wants to surround himself with shows of force and strength. | ||
Shocked and furious to find that many military leaders in his first term didn't share his views of the politicization of the military that Donald Trump had in mind for his presidency. | ||
This time around, he's finding it much easier to have his demands met. | ||
He is a different kind of defense secretary in Pete Hegseth. | ||
He's already fired his first chairman of the Joint Chiefs. | ||
And he has the ability now to create these spectacles almost on demand. | ||
that he will continue to do so. | ||
*Squeak* | ||
*Squeak* | ||
Do you think the president was right to override the rights of the state in terms of making its own decisions? | ||
And in this case, he chose to send it to the National Guard. | ||
I come from Richmond, Virginia, so I know something about states' rights. | ||
And Gavin Newsom is acting like a neo-Confederate right now. | ||
The federal government has every availability to do what they did to federalize National Guard, particularly if they think of the commander-in-chief. | ||
Thinks that something's not being handled appropriately. | ||
And that's what the president did. | ||
Our argument today on the show is that he should double and triple down today with ICE raids. | ||
I mean, we've had an invasion of this country just on Biden's watch of 10 to 13 million illegal alien invaders. | ||
And they all have to go home, not just the criminals. | ||
Every person that came here on Biden's watch has to be deported. | ||
And that's what they're trying to stop now with these. | ||
With people like Mayor Bass and Gavin Newsom. | ||
And it's absolutely the prerogative of the president as commander-in-chief to do what he did. | ||
unidentified
|
So in what way is the situation that we've seen just in the last couple of days in Los Angeles an invasion or a rebellion as described in the piece of law that the president has referred to? | |
Well, there's been an invasion. | ||
unidentified
|
But specifically over this weekend. | |
People all agreed that 13 million people came. | ||
What you had is ICE agents during their normal raids to basically get people to deport them out of the country. | ||
And this was stopped by this mob. | ||
This is what was surrounding the ICE headquarters. | ||
Couldn't let ICE out. | ||
And the local LAPD didn't really intervene. | ||
You know, over the last two days, the LAPDs kind of stood down. | ||
It's going to be a red line for everyone not to deploy U.S. forces domestically here. | ||
It's clear that Donald Trump is tearing this country apart. | ||
He's pitting American citizens against one another. | ||
The National Guard men and women who have been deployed to the streets of Los Angeles, they're citizens of California. | ||
I'm sure they don't like the idea that they have to fulfill their obligations as National Guard people. | ||
You know, despite the recommendations, the strong recommendation of the governor and the mayor not to do that. | ||
But Donald Trump is determined to have this confrontation and provoke confrontation. | ||
And that's why just listening to Mike Johnson basically say it's okay to deploy U.S. military forces domestically here. | ||
Against American citizens, I mean, just after 120 days or so of this administration, I can just, you know, imagine where it's going to go over the next 120 days and over the next three and a half years. | ||
And I'm hoping that there's going to be individuals of principle in the Republican Party who are going to say enough is enough. | ||
But, you know, I've lost faith in so many of them who have just been willing to give Donald Trump everything he wants, again, irrespective of law and order. | ||
Irrespective of the Constitution, irrespective of common sense, and irrespective of what keeps this country together, which is the people that keep us together. | ||
And again, I think Donald Trump is going down this road intentionally, again, to try to provoke these types of confrontations that's going to go nowhere good. | ||
Immigrant voters, foreign-born voters, have gone tremendously to the right on this issue in 2024 and 2025 versus where they were in 2020. | ||
Closest to her trust-born immigration. | ||
You go back to 2020. | ||
Democrats, get this, held a 32-point lead on this issue. | ||
Immigrant voters were in the Democratic camp. | ||
Jump forward to 2024, 2025. | ||
Look at that shift, a 40-point shift to the right among immigrant voters. | ||
Republicans now lead on this issue by eight points over Democrats, more so than any other group. | ||
Now that they're going to see the spectacle of quote-unquote L.A. on fire, which it's not, right? | ||
What will happen? | ||
Will he activate the ugliness that got him in office in the first place? | ||
Will folk now declare why they love him? | ||
Because we know that he's always good on the immigration question. | ||
And then the second thing, this reminds me historically of the, it's not a clear analogy, but when the nation, when these political factions divided the nation between slaveholders and slave catchers. | ||
When they made everybody with the fugitive slave law, all of us had to, if someone escaped, all of us had to return that particular piece of property to these folk with ICE running around LA, forcing people to make choices. | ||
Will they protect their friends, their neighbors, their family members? | ||
Will they take, will they confront these folk and I'm sitting here trying to figure out, right, what will the country stomach? | ||
Are they going to allow this man to do this? | ||
And the answer that I keep coming to is yes. | ||
unidentified
|
Say more. | |
I don't know what else to say. | ||
Here's the thing. | ||
unidentified
|
Donald Trump, as a political charlatan of sorts, gives Americans license to be who they really are. | |
They don't have to pretend. | ||
And when you see what they really are, who they really are, these people who support him, Right? | ||
unidentified
|
It's dark. | |
I guess my whole specifics of what we saw over the weekend. | ||
You just asked me, so where was the violence? | ||
What did your eyes tell you? | ||
Did you watch the footage? | ||
unidentified
|
I did. | |
My colleagues on the ground have spoken to them. | ||
That's fine, but if they're breaking the law, they're breaking the law, should be arrested. | ||
But I just want to get to the thinking. | ||
What's your point? | ||
unidentified
|
I want to get to the thinking behind this and what Pete Heggseth is saying, because it's interesting for our viewers to see this. | |
If you have U.S. Marines in California around protesters, does that not move America to a different point? | ||
It's not protesters. | ||
See, this is what you guys try to do with your language. | ||
That's not a protest. | ||
That was a riot. | ||
Okay? | ||
They're interfering with folks that are being deported out of this country. | ||
They are breaking the law and they're writing. | ||
They shut down Los Angeles for like 18 hours yesterday. | ||
That's not a protest. | ||
Nobody's saying about peaceful protests. | ||
If you want to come to protest, they intervene with ICE agents doing their job. | ||
Certainly you should call up the Marines and the U.S. Army if you have to. | ||
Or activate the reserve, the Army Reserve. | ||
Federalizing the National Guard is just step one. | ||
But folks have to understand, and particularly BBC ought to embrace this. | ||
This is not going to stop. | ||
We're going to do this. | ||
And I'll be blunt. | ||
This should have been done in England a long time ago. | ||
You guys should have stood up to the fact of the problem you've got with illegal mass migration. | ||
This is what has to happen. | ||
All you're saying, you have to have a country. | ||
You have to have borders. | ||
You have to have your sovereignty. | ||
And President Trump has the American people in the back of him. | ||
He won the national election. | ||
The polling right now is overwhelmingly to support this. | ||
They're going to go to federal court, argue it out. | ||
We'll see how that plays out. | ||
But I will tell you, today in Los Angeles, They're going to double or triple the number of ICE raids they're going to do on this. | ||
Now, the only problem I have with ICE raids, they're not arresting CEOs. | ||
I think they ought to go into these workplaces and start arresting the white-collar managers. | ||
I hold them just as responsible and maybe more responsible than the folks that have the job. | ||
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people. | ||
I've 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've tried 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? | ||
unidentified
|
Mega Media. | |
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience. | ||
unidentified
|
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. Band. | ||
It's Tuesday, 10 June, Year of Your Lord, 2025. | ||
I want to thank the Real America's Voice crew in Denver and Parker, and particularly my producer Cameron this morning. | ||
That was a work of art. | ||
That was a perfect arc of exactly where we stand and what the two sides are. | ||
One is for law and order and to get our sovereignty back, right? | ||
And I hate to say it, you've got to press the bet today. | ||
Holman, and I love Tom Holman, but a strong recommendation. | ||
Tom, you know, we didn't want Pam Bondi to be a co-host over there at Fox, get back in the Justice Department and let's start indicting people, let's start arresting people. | ||
Tom, enough TV. | ||
We got it. | ||
We got the message. | ||
It's laid out right there. | ||
President Trump's going to Fort Bragg today. | ||
He's going to Fort Bragg. | ||
Our own Brian Glenn's going to be with him. | ||
Today in Los Angeles and throughout the country, because Dallas and San Antonio, other places are going to light up. | ||
The ice. | ||
Should triple down today in L.A. And I didn't like Tom, I love you, but I don't like, you know, Peter Schweitzer, the great Peter Schweitzer. | ||
You're saying, hey, that wasn't about a nice raid, that we're doing some money laundering, we're stopping cartels. | ||
Don't apologize. | ||
All 10 million have to go. | ||
Not just the criminals in the insane asylum. | ||
This is what Bass and Newsom are whining about. | ||
If you're here illegally, you're going to go back to your home. | ||
And if ICE has to enforce that, it has to enforce it. | ||
unidentified
|
We hope most people just pack up and leave. | |
This is righteous. | ||
Cleaning up this mess. | ||
The Democrats are on the wrong side of this. | ||
Look at Harry Enten. | ||
We can play much more of Harry Enten sitting there going, this is absolutely the issue the United States wants. | ||
They want their sirenry back. | ||
You know who wants it? | ||
Hispanic citizens and African-American citizens. | ||
They want these festering sores of these big cities like Los Angeles cleaned up. | ||
The schools cleaned up. | ||
The medical system cleaned up. | ||
The law and order in the neighborhoods cleaned up. | ||
And the way you do that is to deport 10 million illegal alien, wait for it, invaders. | ||
And at the same time, let's get Mayorkas and Biden and that entire crowd. | ||
rest them. | ||
unidentified

Goes to the jury later in the week. | ||
We'll give you coverage nonstop. | ||
I want to play Harry. | ||
I got Burquam in the streets of L.A. So just make sure you understand the big picture here. | ||
The overwhelming show of force is what broke this riot and sent them all home, right? | ||
Otherwise, you had L.A. burning for a week and CNN saying, oh, look at this. | ||
They're just so frustrated. | ||
But this is just the predicate. | ||
The key is to get back that the ICE agents need to get back into the streets today in a massive show of force and rounding people up. | ||
And deporting them back to their home countries. | ||
Do it humanely. | ||
Make sure that you do it in an appropriate manner, but it's got to be done. | ||
I'm going to play Harry Enten one more time. | ||
I've got McGinley here in-house, and we've got on the streets of Los Angeles our own Ben Burkwam. | ||
Let's play Harry Enten one more time. | ||
Immigrant voters, foreign-born voters, have gone tremendously to the right on this issue in 2024 and 2025 versus where they were in 2020. | ||
Closest to or trust more in immigration. | ||
You go back to 2020. | ||
Democrats, get this, held a 32-point lead on this issue. | ||
Immigrant voters were in the Democratic camp. | ||
Jump forward to 2024, 2025. | ||
Look at that shift. | ||
A 40-point shift to the right among immigrant voters. | ||
Republicans now lead on this issue by 8 points. | ||
Democrats more so than any other group. | ||
That I could find the group of voters who became more hawkish on immigration were, in fact, immigrants themselves, immigrants who are registered to vote in this country. | ||
First ran back in 2016. | ||
Immigrant voters are one of his weakest box. | ||
But look at this. | ||
Trump's vote share in presidential election among, again, immigrant citizens, those who are registered to vote. | ||
Look at this. | ||
In 2016, he got 36% of the vote. | ||
You go to 2020, 39% of the vote. | ||
Look at this. | ||
In 2024, all the way up to 47% of the vote. | ||
Some polls I looked at had him barely losing that vote. | ||
Some polls I looked at had him barely winning that vote. | ||
Again, there is no block of voters that shifted more to the right from 2020 to 2024 than immigrant voters. | ||
And Donald Trump, at least in some surveys, actually won that vote. | ||
On average, it's about equal. | ||
So there may be all this stuff, right, about undocumented immigrants and Trump being harsh on them. | ||
But immigrant voters themselves have increasingly liked Donald Trump and have increasingly moved to the right on immigration into the Republican Party. | ||
In 2020, look at this, plus 23 points on the net favorable rating. | ||
But look at where we were in 2024. | ||
Ben Burkwam in the streets of Los Angeles. | ||
Ben, you're reporting, we'll play him later or throughout the day, you've done man-in-the-street interviews of people cleaning up the mess that are immigrants, citizens. | ||
They agree with Harry Anton at CNN? | ||
Yeah, yeah, it's funny. | ||
Absolutely, hands down, the immigrant in particular, the legal voting immigrant community in America, this, everything that you're seeing from the Democrats right now, all the defacing of property and attacking of police and law enforcement and ICE, you're just turning them more MAGA. | ||
But what we're also seeing, and this was pretty shocking, not so much shocking, but to get them on camera, I was just walking down the streets to get over here today, and we had this crew of guys cleaning off the graffiti. | ||
I walk up, and the guy turns. | ||
I walk further down to the Walt Disney Concert Hall, a historic landmark here in Los Angeles. | ||
It's got graffiti all over it. | ||
There's this woman across the street shaking her head. | ||
Same thing. | ||
I just start filming her. | ||
She starts talking. | ||
She even said, I would generally be sympathetic to their cause, but when you do stuff like this, you're turning the people off. | ||
Those were her words. | ||
Wait till you see the interview. | ||
This is not just turning off the immigrant community, the black American community who feel like they're They've been abandoned by the Democrats. | ||
This is turning off the liberal white Democrat base. | ||
So keep it up, Democrats. | ||
I mean, I don't know whose strategy this is, but it's working for MAGA. | ||
I'll tell you that. | ||
You've got the Walton family. | ||
There's all kinds of things. | ||
Hang on for a second, Ben. | ||
Stay right there and come back to you. | ||
McGinley, you're from L.A. You know the city. | ||
The legal immigrant community. | ||
Has their schools destroyed? | ||
Their healthcare destroyed? | ||
Trump's their savior. | ||
That's what he's coming in and trying to do, is he not? | ||
Yeah. | ||
I mean, it's one of the reasons that they came to this country in the first place was so it's rule of law, not men. | ||
One of the basic civics lessons that we all had growing up is that the United States is ruled by laws, not men. | ||
We don't want subjective standards. | ||
And if you look at what Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass are doing, they're basically saying we're going to selectively decide which laws are going to be enforced and which ones are not. | ||
That is a personal decision for them and under our federalist system. | ||
Federal law trumps state law. | ||
It occupies the field under the Supremacy Clause. | ||
And the court cases are telling you that the federal government, meaning the President of the United States, based upon the authority that the Congress has given him by statute, bicameralism and presentment, has the authority to do this. | ||
ICE should follow the law. | ||
They should go and get the warrants for some of these folks, but they should also enforce the immigration laws. | ||
But a lot of times you don't need the warrants. | ||
No, that's what I'm saying. | ||
You should enforce the immigration laws without the warrants. | ||
Yes. | ||
But basically they should follow the law. | ||
They're going to have the support of the community. | ||
They may not have the support of Karen Bass and Gavin Newsom, but that's okay because everybody is looking at what they're doing with the people who are throwing cinder blocks at police officers, at law enforcement. | ||
Well, let's talk about that. | ||
Let's talk about this. | ||
There's obviously pre-stage. | ||
You have bricks. | ||
You have cinder blocks, all of it. | ||
You had the Watts riots in the mid-60s. | ||
You then had the Rodney King in 92, I think. | ||
Now today, and President Trump, what has changed? | ||
Because President Trump has had a massive show of federalized National Guard. | ||
He's got a battalion of Marines coming up. | ||
I think he's put another 2,000 National Guard. | ||
He's thinking about Army Reserve. | ||
He's going to Fort Bragg today as a show of force. | ||
Why is LAPD, like over the weekend, and I kind of feel for these guys, the frontline guys, because a little bit looks like they're forced to play Namby Pamby. | ||
There were virtually no arrests, right? | ||
In San Francisco, they had 142. | ||
Arrest in LA, virtually nothing. | ||
What's going on? | ||
Yeah, because the rank-and-file and LAPD and the LA County Sheriff deputies don't have the support of the political leaders in the county and the city. | ||
Even into the police chain of command? | ||
Yeah, I think some of those guys are trying their best to support the rank-and-file. | ||
But if you talk to the rank and file, and I have friends who were part of the rank and file and still talk to some of them, a lot of them are demoralized. | ||
A lot of them don't want to risk anything because they know that the city, the county, and the state are not going to back them up when you have some of these folks. | ||
They want to enforce the law. | ||
They want to get them off the streets. | ||
Why? | ||
Because the overwhelming majority of Angelenos and Californians are good people. | ||
They're hard-working people. | ||
They're working multiple jobs just to be able to afford to stay in California because of all the taxes that Gavin Newsom and Karen Batts are imposing on them, whether it's $8 gas or anything else. | ||
These people just want to live their lives and raise their kids and have their small business. | ||
Unless you take care of the illegal alien situation, you're not going to be able to get the schools back up to standard. | ||
The medical system there is destroyed. | ||
The schools are destroyed. | ||
The law and order of the neighborhoods are destroyed. | ||
And the reason is you have – I think they're talking about in L.A. maybe a million or two million illegal aliens. | ||
Until you sort that problem out, the working-class Hispanic citizens and working-class African-American citizens – because first off, it suppresses wages so hard. | ||
This is why the elites in L.A., the Gavin Newsoms of the world, love illegal aliens because they get their grass cut cheaper, their nannies, all of it, right? | ||
The people doing the yards and the wages drop for everybody. | ||
But all these hardworking people have been living with a crime-ridden city for a long time. | ||
People forget about that. | ||
They basically declared, we're not going to prosecute people who steal items valued just under $1,000. | ||
You're coming off of the era where they had Gascon as the LADA. | ||
Who acted more like a criminal defense attorney as opposed to a prosecutor to protect the citizens and get violent criminals. | ||
Whenever the LAPD and the sheriffs were bringing these folks in and booking them, the prosecutors were processing them right back out onto the street. | ||
So on the heels of that... | ||
I don't think he's good enough. | ||
I think he needs to take a harder line on the violent crime. | ||
And, you know, I think LAPD needs to know that the political leadership has their back, which Bass does not. | ||
I think that the L.A. County Sheriff's Department needs to know that the political leadership has their back. | ||
And Gavin Newsom. | ||
To me, my question for Gavin Newsom, how much property needs to be damaged? | ||
How much property needs to be destroyed? | ||
How many people need to be injured? | ||
How many people have to die before you would call in the National Guard and do the right thing? | ||
What is the trigger for you to restore law and order and actually enforce the law in the state of California and in Los Angeles? | ||
He has yet to answer that. | ||
We've got McGinley Angelino in the house. | ||
We've got Ben Berkham on the streets, Jim Rickards, the geopolitical strategist. | ||
This is an aspect of the Third World War. | ||
And also, he's going to join us, and Chris Moritz, who knows something about the failed state of California. | ||
All next in the war room. | ||
unidentified
|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Band. | |
Right? | ||
It's not the foot soldiers out front. | ||
And to talk about narrative control, CNN did not even show the press conference with Bass last night. | ||
They understand that's a loser. | ||
How do we get to the bottom of how this thing's organized? | ||
There's another huge thing financed by the Walton family and all these billionaires. | ||
We'll get some names here in a minute. | ||
Why is the Justice Department not all over this? | ||
Why is the FBI? | ||
Cash said, hey, he's going to be doing all this. | ||
Why are we not all over the financiers and the people in back of this? | ||
We ought to be perp-walking those people out today. | ||
Look, I think that after this is done, after they restore order, I would fully expect that the FBI and the Department of Justice is going to take a look at a couple of things. | ||
Were these protests financed? | ||
If yes, by whom? | ||
Was there coordination? | ||
Did that coordination involve obstructing federal law enforcement processes and arresting their duties under federal law? | ||
And I think that those are going to have to be some hard questions that a lot of people in California, the people who are organizing the protests, but potentially some of these political leaders as well. | ||
They passed a $34 million bill to finance at Burquam. | ||
Answer McGinley's question. | ||
You're on the streets with the prepositioned bricks and the stone. | ||
You've been down there with the street level. | ||
Is this organized or not, sir? | ||
Yeah, from the very top. | ||
There is coordination by all these different groups. | ||
Now you have this new one, No Kings, but it's all the same groups, Indivisible, the American Socialist Party, Democratic Socialists of America. | ||
All going back to Great Society and all of these organizations. | ||
It is all coordinated, all organized. | ||
They're communicating to each other. | ||
They've got walkie-talkies. | ||
They're talking back and forth. | ||
Who's going where? | ||
You've got Antifa coordinating with the liberals, the activist attorneys' organizations, the attorneys' guilds. | ||
They are all coordinated. | ||
And again, it's through multiple groups, but it's all coordinated. | ||
And the big thing, I mean, this to me is just a RICO case waiting to happen. | ||
Well, hold it. | ||
Hang on, McGinley. | ||
Part of the Arizona engine room is telling me right now, if they cut off the head of the snake, it all ends. | ||
Do you agree with that? | ||
No. | ||
I think that back in the day, the Demdark Money Network was a very top-down organization. | ||
I think after the president was elected in 2016, they all got together and decided to make it more of a dispersed group. | ||
They wanted to give it the appearance of organic uprising. | ||
It's still a couple of billionaires in back of it, the Walton family. | ||
More than a couple. | ||
I think that's what they're saying. | ||
Do you go after the billionaires today? | ||
I think you've got to find the organizations or you're going to find the donors. | ||
You've done the most work on all this dark money tying it together. | ||
What are the two or three this morning that you would tell the Justice Department to go in, get a warrant, seize their records, and let's roll? | ||
Yeah, I would take a look at all of the big national dark money groups and look at the... | ||
And what are the transfers? | ||
You can pull those out of the 990s that these groups file. | ||
Now, the 2024 990s aren't coming available until probably around November or later. | ||
But I would want to take that and follow the money. | ||
Because it's not just the national groups that you have there. | ||
And a lot of people will ignore California because it's a one-party rural state. | ||
But when you look at some of the activities that are happening on the ground right now in Los Angeles, Santa Ana, and some of these other communities, you need to get down there and find out these community groups, who's financing them, who's training them, and who's supporting them. | ||
Another part of the interim is telling me the trustafarians. | ||
How big a deal is these trust fund kids, these NEPO billionaire babies that are funding this? | ||
Look, I don't know who is funding this, Steve, so I don't want to come out and name names, but I do want to say that there is enough evidence here for the Oversight Committee in the House of Representatives. | ||
Dude, you're boring me. | ||
Yeah, I know. | ||
Right, I get it. | ||
Come on, Bill. | ||
And Homeland Security. | ||
Don't get me, don't do another TV interview. | ||
Get ICE guys out there. | ||
I got Bill McGinley here. | ||
Drop the hammer. | ||
He's calling Comer. | ||
We're going to have another hearing. | ||
Can I, hold it. | ||
Can you draft a strongly worded letter? | ||
What the hell? | ||
Listen, Trump's sending in troops. | ||
What do you mean? | ||
Trump's taking it up. | ||
Yeah, but you can walk and chew gum at the same time. | ||
It broke them, though, didn't it? | ||
Yes. | ||
unidentified
|
The show of force broke the protesters? | |
Yeah. | ||
And gave the LAPD some backbone? | ||
It gave the California Highway Patrol some backbone? | ||
Yeah, because the rank and file finally saw that there was somebody supporting them. | ||
The cavalry arrived, did it not? | ||
That's right. | ||
We're going to Fort Bragg. | ||
Brian Glenn's going to be in the second hour. | ||
Burquam, when are we going to get your interviews, your man-in-the-street interviews? | ||
Where are they? | ||
I'm going to cut them up in the next few minutes. | ||
As soon as I get them up, I'll send them to you guys first, and I'll let you know. | ||
No, cut them up and come back to me. | ||
We've got time. | ||
I'm going to play in the second hour. | ||
Okay, Harry Enten told you the biggest group that shifted. | ||
This is Star County, Texas, down on the rear ground where Cortez has been talking about. | ||
Working-class Hispanics that are American citizens, working-class blacks that are American citizens, 1,000% support what President Trump is doing because you know why? | ||
It's looking out for them. | ||
They're the ones, they're bearing the brunt of this, not the trustafarians, right, who are dining off this. | ||
And this gets back also, they're dining off the H-1B visas. | ||
Hang on one second, Bill. | ||
I want you to stick around. | ||
Ben, you go do your thing. | ||
Where do people get your content, Ben? | ||
Go cut your stuff and come back in the second hour. | ||
Where do people get it in the interim? | ||
Always first on Real America's Voice, at Real AM Voice on all the social media, and then my social media, at Ben Burquam, Substack, Frontline America, and FrontlineAmerica.com. | ||
Great reporting. | ||
So proud of you, brother. | ||
Let's bring in Rickards. | ||
Rickards, I said yesterday that this was another front in the Third World War, in the arc of instability from Kursk all the way down to the Red Sea, the South China Sea, around Taiwan, this global conflict that's metastasizing. | ||
One of the key areas is the invasion of the United States was 10 million illegal alien invaders and the mainstream media went absolutely crazy. | ||
Ban inputs, weird conspiracies up there. | ||
Sir, you're the best geopolitical strategist I know. | ||
We're negotiating in London on rare earths and chips. | ||
Right now, we got a Chinese, a PLA, People's Liberation Navy, carrier battle group that's steaming east of the second island chain, right, when we said for years it could never happen. | ||
You've got the Russians have hit Kiev last night, I think as hard as London got hit in some of the nights of the Blitz. | ||
But is not one of the biggest battlefields here, the invasion that took place, and you're seeing it in LA County, Jim Rickards? | ||
Well, that's absolutely right, Steve. | ||
When you talk about warfare, you have a lot of kinetic or potentially kinetic aspects to it. | ||
But financial warfare is as much a part of the geopolitical struggle you're describing as kinetic warfare, and that happens to be my specialty. | ||
I have one quick story, and then I'll kind of… Some years ago, I was asked by the CIA to organize a clandestine operation to destabilize a certain country. | ||
I'm not going to mention the name of the country. | ||
I've been there. | ||
It's a pretty place, but no need to mention the name. | ||
But no Bay of Pigs kind of stuff. | ||
It had to be financial. | ||
That was my area. | ||
So I studied it for a while and I very quickly realized that you could do it pretty easily by cutting off remittances. | ||
And for those who don't know, when people leave their country and go They send money back home. | ||
I mean, everyone's supposed to do that, but they do. | ||
And these remittances, I identified the channel that they were going through. | ||
It wasn't Venmo, but it was something like that. | ||
It was an online application, and I identified the channel. | ||
I said to the agency, get your technical people, cut off the channel, say cutting off the oxygen supply. | ||
You'll have social unrest within days, and then throw in some propaganda and take it from there. | ||
So I wrote this up. | ||
And the thing with the CIA, you tell them stuff, and they don't tell you anything back. | ||
It's kind of a one-way street. | ||
So some months later, I bumped into my point of contact. | ||
I said, hey, whatever happened to that idea I put out there? | ||
He goes, oh, they decided not to do it. | ||
And I said, why not? | ||
He said, they thought it might work. | ||
In other words, I said, oh, you didn't really want to destabilize me. | ||
You just wanted to kind of mess with them a little bit. | ||
But the point is, remittances are like oxygen supply. | ||
It will totally destabilize the country. | ||
Now, bring that to the big, beautiful bill. | ||
Buried in there, very technical provision. | ||
By the way, I was International Tax Counsel of the city for 10 years, so this is another one of my specialties. | ||
There's a provision to put a 5% withholding tax on remittances to Mexico. | ||
Now, before you say, hey, this is some landscaper sending $100 back home. | ||
No, the remittances to Mexico are $64.7 billion a year from the U.S. to Mexico. | ||
Individual transfers might be small, but the total is $64.7 billion. | ||
That's 3.5% of Mexican GDP. | ||
That's more money than Mexico makes in oil exports. | ||
That's larger than Mexico's trade surplus with the United States. | ||
This is their total oxygen supply. | ||
It's so huge. | ||
unidentified
|
Hang on. | |
That's part of the scam. | ||
Hang on. | ||
But Jim, why wouldn't you demand that they be able to show proof of citizenship at Western Union? | ||
And if you can't show legitimate proof of citizenship, you can't send the wire, that the only wire that can be sent is by a United States citizen. | ||
Why would we allow – if they try to do it, make it 100 percent tax? | ||
Just seize it. | ||
Take it all. | ||
I mean, why are we just 5%? | ||
That's fine. | ||
I understand. | ||
That's kind of smart, but it doesn't get to the heart of it. | ||
The heart of it is that in L.A. County, we have, is it 2 million, I think, overall in the county, illegal aliens, sir? | ||
Firstly, you could do that. | ||
It would not be difficult. | ||
And, you know, just whatever channel they're using these days, you know, the old-day Western Union, banks, Venmo, whatever, they're a bunch of channels. | ||
They're not difficult to find. | ||
And you could put that requirement on them. | ||
By the way, $64.7 billion, Mexico would be begging to rejoin the United States. | ||
I mean, that would – and this is why Scheinbaum is completely melting down. | ||
And it's more than just the 5%. | ||
5% sounds small, and I agree. | ||
It could be as much as you want. | ||
So we're going to skim 5%. | ||
But the point is Mexico, when they get the money, they put a value-added tax on it of 16% value-added tax. | ||
So it's not just people sending money to their grandmother or whatever in some village. | ||
It's a big source of revenue for the Mexican government. | ||
The cartel takes a skim. | ||
The money itself could be used to pay for the border wall. | ||
I mean, even the 5% is a very big deal. | ||
But you're right. | ||
If you want to make it higher than that, dial it up to 20% or even 100%, you could do that. | ||
And as I say, Mexico would grind to a halt. | ||
This is 3.5% of their GDP coming from Mexico. | ||
By the way, the provision to put the 5% on is in the big, beautiful bill. | ||
So it's coming, and that's why. | ||
Now, there's some notion. | ||
I'll just be clear. | ||
This is speculation. | ||
I can't verify this. | ||
But there's some notion that, because Scheinbaum said, we want to mobilize the Mexican population in the United States to resist this. | ||
Now, she didn't say violence, but is what's going on in LA in some way? | ||
That mobilization that she referred to. | ||
I know you've got to bounce. | ||
Some observations on all this. | ||
Look, I think that it's so convenient with all the short-term memory just from Boulder with the guy who came in. | ||
We had a terror attack in a park. | ||
Right. | ||
Karen Bass is yelling about, oh, they tried to do a raid or ICE agent showed up at Home Depot. | ||
We had an anti-Semitic attack in Boulder in a park. | ||
How soon do people forget that Chris Ray sat before Congress last year? | ||
No friend of the war room, nobody that we trust, saying, I've never seen the red lights blinking like they are right now. | ||
I mean, even the Biden administration, toward the end, realized the folly of their ways and began to realize how insecure that they placed America in. | ||
I think that what we need to do is we need to be supporting these ICE agents. | ||
We need to be supporting federal law enforcement. | ||
President Trump needs our back. | ||
Everybody needs to back him up. | ||
You and I have talked about how we need to almost have a permanent campaign to support him, not only on the big, beautiful bill, on the immigration policy, everything else that he wants to do to try and right the ship of everything that's gone wrong. | ||
I know you gotta bounce. | ||
I'm gonna contact you. | ||
I want to have you back on the next couple of days because between Rick is getting worked up on the remittances. | ||
And you are the expert in the dark money. | ||
The war room posse right now is blowing up the chat saying they want scalps of billionaires' sons and daughters. | ||
So I want to come back. | ||
You're the expert of that. | ||
I want to come back. | ||
We've got to stop the funding of this. | ||
The funding in California is coming through their assembly because it's a one-party state. | ||
But also these billionaire kids. | ||
That are funding the destruction of our country. | ||
We've got to get it organized. | ||
And you're the smartest guy out there about that. | ||
And a California assembly and held a press conference, I think it was yesterday, where he basically said, you know, you're taking the money from the law enforcement and you're giving it to these groups that are helping to organize these protests. | ||
Hang on. | ||
I'm going to have you give social media everything when we come back. | ||
Short commercial break. | ||
I've got Jim Rickards, Bill McGinley. | ||
Short break. | ||
unidentified
|
back in a moment. | |
Here's your host, Stephen K. Vance. | ||
McGinley's getting a little heckled on the board. | ||
People want scalps. | ||
I can't believe I got Bill McGinley in here. | ||
First time in, and this is one of my dearest friends, first time here actually in studio outside of phone, and it's got to be before inauguration, right? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Okay. | ||
Maybe since my prison stint. | ||
They know McGinley's a hammer, you know, where all the money is. | ||
And what does McGinley give me? | ||
I think we ought to call an oversight committee. | ||
Comer. | ||
Oh my god! | ||
People are like, get him off! | ||
Where's McGinley? | ||
That's a body double. | ||
unidentified
|
Real quickly, where can people go get you for all your information? | |
You've got a great new thing. | ||
We'll get to that when you come back. | ||
Tell me where people go. | ||
On X at WJMcGinley. | ||
Get her at McGinleyWJ. | ||
Did we have the Indivisible? | ||
Is that loaded yet? | ||
The picture of the tweet with the picture of was it Lee? | ||
Ezra Levin. | ||
I mean, this is one of the issues. | ||
It's these billionaire kids, right, or these kids that are putting this together, that are financing all this stuff, like Indivisible is, I think, part of the New Kings. | ||
I think the full-page ad I saw in the New York Times was by one of the Walton people, I think. | ||
We've got to get to the people that are funding this. | ||
I mean, otherwise, the people in the streets that Burquam's got to deal with are the foot soldiers, right? | ||
They're always going to show up, but you've got to cut the money off. | ||
Yeah, but you've got to get to the broader network that's out there. | ||
None of this is you can view in isolation. | ||
You've got to look at all of the stuff that they've done in elections. | ||
You've got to look at everything that they've done on public policy. | ||
If the Justice Department gets a special deal going here with Ed Martin or something, you and Tom Fitton could be advisors to that, correct? | ||
Yeah, I'll go in and talk to Ed Martin anytime. | ||
Okay, perfect. | ||
Social media? | ||
Axe, once again, W.J. McGinley and Getter. | ||
McGinley WJ. | ||
Folks, go blow him up today. | ||
The band is bringing you for an hour to be a hammer. | ||
You're a Huntington Beach guy. | ||
Act like a Huntington Beach. | ||
Huntington Beach, by the way, talk about a city that's flipped. | ||
It's a bright red dot and a blue state. | ||
It's amazing. | ||
They're all MAGA. | ||
It's full MAGA down there. | ||
You walk through the streets, you can see why. | ||
On a Saturday afternoon. | ||
Spontaneous Trump demonstrations at the pier. | ||
Unbelievable. | ||
Full MAGA. | ||
Bill McGinley, love you, brother. | ||
Thanks for having me on. | ||
Oversight Committee. | ||
Rickards, the broader war here. | ||
The Russians hit. | ||
They're slugging it out now, the Ukrainians and the Russians. | ||
Are they not? | ||
They are. | ||
And, you know, the media, well, you know, They report on these Russian very large drone attacks, 500 drones or more. | ||
They're also using ballistic missiles, not using the Roshnik, but Yishkal and some other missiles and bombers. | ||
So this is a massive attack. | ||
But they don't report very much on what the Ukrainians did to the Russians. | ||
I mean, obviously, this blowing up a few of these strategic bombers. | ||
By the way, the Ukrainians lie about everything. | ||
So if they say they blew up 40 bombers, make it... | ||
They were damaged, etc. | ||
Yeah, they did some damage. | ||
But hang on. | ||
The first casualty of war is the truth. | ||
The Russians don't do a bad job either, right? | ||
I mean, they're kind of pros at this. | ||
So everything you're reading from the battlefield, you've got to kind of filter, right? | ||
Well, I agree with that. | ||
But if you're winning, you're more likely to tell the truth. | ||
So I think, actually, the Russian Defense Ministry has a very good track record. | ||
They put out a few propaganda pieces. | ||
But when you compare what they say to what actually happened, sometimes you don't learn until weeks or even months later. | ||
Their track record is pretty good. | ||
Ukraine just, you know, I don't know what to say. | ||
They just lie about everything. | ||
Okay, Zelensky's lighting up the president of the United States today. | ||
I don't need any more talk out of Washington. | ||
I need action. | ||
How do you interpret that? | ||
He's desperate. | ||
It's not just because Ukraine's losing the war. | ||
That would be one reason to be desperate. | ||
But he personally is kind of a pawn for the neo-Nazi element, the Azov brigades and the Bandera descendants, etc. | ||
He's under their thumb. | ||
Actually, he's not the president. | ||
He's a dictator because his presidential term expired in May of 2024. | ||
So he's now under a year and a half of being a dictator, period. | ||
But he's under the thumb of the neo-Nazi element. | ||
By the way, I had a discussion with the head of the U.S. Marshal. | ||
It's basically a pro-German U.S. organization. | ||
I asked her about this, and she said, yeah, there are Nazis there. | ||
She kind of said, we keep our distance. | ||
But I got an acknowledgment from an expert that, yeah, they are in fact neo-Nazis. | ||
So I guess he has his houses in Dubai and maybe Miami all set. | ||
He's got money abroad. | ||
He's good to go. | ||
Hold, hold, hold, hold. | ||
Do we know that? | ||
He needs to keep him going to protect himself. | ||
Do we know that? | ||
How do you ascertain? | ||
How do you back that up as a fact that he's got these houses? | ||
We keep hearing he's got houses in Egypt. | ||
He's skimmed so much off the top of the oligarchs. | ||
How do we actually know that for a fact? | ||
I rely on sources who have very good track records. | ||
So, yeah, it's secondhand, but I always test them. | ||
I say, okay, I've been listening to you for three years. | ||
And you've been right about almost everything. | ||
And on occasions when you're not right, you admit it. | ||
You say, hey, we got that wrong. | ||
That gives you a lot of credibility, in my view. | ||
I was teaching a class. | ||
There was a lady from the State Department, fairly senior, who was in my class. | ||
And I went through some of this. | ||
And she came up to me during the coffee break and said, could you give me your sources? | ||
And I said, sure. | ||
And I did. | ||
But I thought it was odd that she has the highest possible security clearances. | ||
And she's asking me. | ||
For, you know, basically what are open sources, you have to know where to look. | ||
So, yeah, I do rely on sourcing, but I also judge them by their track record, and it's very good. | ||
Jim, can you stick around for a little while? | ||
We need to lose you now at the top of the hour. | ||
Can you stick around in the second hour? | ||
Sure. | ||
Okay, perfect. | ||
Jim Rickards, John Solomon, is also going to join us. | ||
Amazing breaking story from John Solomon. | ||
That will make your head blow up. | ||
That's where we've got John here at the top of the hour. | ||
Also, Brian Glenn, our man in the White House, is going to be on the road today with President Trump as he goes to Fort Bragg. | ||
Yes, it's Fort Bragg, not Fort Liberty or whatever they named it in the illegitimate Biden regime. | ||
Fort Bragg. | ||
Brian Glenn will be there as President Trump goes down to visit the 82nd Airborne. | ||
