| Yes, Anderson, I'm going to agree with Brad that Iran is extremely weakened right now. | ||
| In fact, I think that it demonstrates that we did not need to execute Operation Midnight Hammer. | ||
| The Israelis had this well in hand. | ||
| There's no reason why we needed to cross that threshold. | ||
| And my concern is that, although maybe the immediate crisis may have ebbed, long term, I mean, Iran's in this for the long game. | ||
| You got 91 million Iranians, and, you know, there's no fanatic like a religious fanatic. | ||
| There's lots of people that are willing to die for their religion. | ||
| And I think that there's lots that they could potentially do to us in the United States. | ||
| Might not be this week, might not be next month, but this could very well come back to haunt us. | ||
| And again, I think that this proves that Operation Midnight Hammer was not needed, that the Israelis could definitely have taken down the nuclear capability of Iranians by themselves. | ||
| And we did not need to get involved and cross this threshold. | ||
| This is the primal screen of a dying regime. | ||
| Pray for our enemies, because we're going to medieval on these people. | ||
| You're going to not get 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? | ||
| Mega 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. Matt. | ||
| Okay, it is Monday, not Tuesday, Monday, 23 June, year Our Lord 2025. | ||
| I am honored, and I'm saying honored, to be here. | ||
| We were the only news show in the world that was live and read President Trump's True Social at the beginning of Operation Midnight Hammer. | ||
| Matt Bull is here sitting next to me. | ||
| I want to read to this audience what Jessica came across from True Social from the President of the United States and commander-in-chief of our armed forces and also more than any living individual in this world, deserves 10 Nobel Peace Prizes. | ||
| And I quote from the President, congratulations to everyone. | ||
| It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a complete and total ceasefire in approximately six hours from now when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in-progress final missions for 12 hours, at which point the war will be considered ended. | ||
| Officially, Iran will start the ceasefire, and upon the 12th hour, Israel will start the ceasefire, and upon the 24th hour, an official end to the 12-day war will be saluted by the world. | ||
| During each ceasefire, the other side will remain peaceful and respectful on the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will. | ||
| I would like to congratulate both countries, Israel and Iran, on having the stamina and courage and intelligence to end what should be called the 12-day war. | ||
| This is a war that could have gone on for years and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn't and never will. | ||
| God bless Israel. | ||
| God bless Iran. | ||
| God bless the Middle East. | ||
| God bless the United States of America. | ||
| And God bless the world. | ||
| Let's get that Denver. | ||
| If Grace and Mo and you saw what happened is Lindsey Graham and Levin knew he was working on this and knew what he was doing after the hit at Qatar. | ||
| And they're sitting there trying to get you worked up. | ||
| The gall of these people, and they don't deserve to be called warmongers. | ||
| Are you kidding me? | ||
| Lindsey Graham's sitting there in the floor of the Senate, and we've showed it to you, all of it. | ||
| We didn't cut any of it. | ||
| Nobody else showed it to you. | ||
| Fox didn't show it to you. | ||
| CNN didn't show it to you. | ||
| MSNBC didn't show it to you. | ||
| We showed you every second, every second of that performance where he basically went against everything that a man of peace, that's Donald John Trump, was doing. | ||
| You know what he's trying to do? | ||
| He's trying to stir it up, just like he's in Ukraine trying to stir it up, trying to stir it up. | ||
| Jack Pasovic is 100% correct. | ||
| His allegiance, his allegiance is to the military-industrial complex. | ||
| And if the folks in South Carolina don't get off the keisters and find a candidate that can take that guy and beat him in a primary, then it's on you, okay? | ||
| It's on you. | ||
| The great folks in South Carolina, that's what you got representing you in the most deliberative body in the world. | ||
| You heard that hysterical, and we didn't make a comment. | ||
| We let it all play out. | ||
| And understanding that President Trump was working on this right there with the Israelis in the Persians. | ||
| Well, he's working on it. | ||
| He comes in there just like Ukraine. | ||
| He's over there stirring it up in Ukraine. | ||
| What did Trump tell him in Pompeo? | ||
| Oh, shut up. | ||
| You better watch what you say. | ||
| That was his quote in truth. | ||
| Now you see the pressure on Trump, particularly the MAGA folks. | ||
| Now you see the pressure on Trump. | ||
| He's getting it from every direction. | ||
| He's getting these guys 24-7 and Murdoch and all of them. | ||
| And the donors and the corporatists and Wall Street, all of them. | ||
| All of Fox, Murdoch on them non-stop. | ||
| You see, he's sitting there negotiating a peace deal. | ||
| This is like a cockpit over. | ||
| These people hate each other. | ||
| Hell, they've been taking out people in Haifa, in Tel Aviv, hitting them with ballistic missiles. | ||
| The Israelis have air supremacy. | ||
| They've been bombing Tehran. | ||
| They're people dead. | ||
| A lot of people dead. | ||
| A lot more people wounded. | ||
| And he's working on a deal to get a ceasefire for the 12-day war. | ||
| He's trying to do that, bringing His judgment and his wisdom, and also the ability to do another midnight hammer, right? | ||
| And what are they doing? | ||
| They're going to the floor of the Senate. | ||
| President Trump, I just hope you understand the great unmasking. | ||
| Now you know exactly. | ||
| Well, you're sitting there trying to negotiate a deal, trying to negotiate a deal. | ||
| See what he's doing. | ||
| See what that little jackal's doing. | ||
| Just like you're trying to get something done in Ukraine and he's stirring it up. | ||
| He's stirring it up. | ||
| And look at Levin calling you out on Twitter. | ||
| Well, you're trying to do it because they knew you were working on something. | ||
| They knew that you were trying to get the guns laid down. | ||
| Just like in World War I, the 11th day of the 11th month, the 11th hour, right? | ||
| Remember that? | ||
| These hyenas, they're jackals. | ||
| They're jackals. | ||
| They feed off death and destruction. | ||
| What Levin and these guys did in Ukraine and Fox did in Ukraine. | ||
| You see them cheerleading Ukraine now? | ||
| Where is it? | ||
| There's a million people dead and wounded. | ||
| Where is it now? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Uh-huh. | |
| Mersheimer is right. | ||
| You're going to yell and scream until you get down to the last Ukraine. | ||
| Now they got the young girls in Ukraine. | ||
| Time's got a story. | ||
| People demographically is a disaster. | ||
| All the young people are leaving. | ||
| The mothers and fathers don't want those boys drafted. | ||
| And Trump is sitting there trying to get peace. | ||
| Do you understand what we said? | ||
| He's trying to deport 10 million illegal alien vaders minimum here to get them out of the country and get our sovereignty back. | ||
| Julie Kelly's going to report on that in a minute. | ||
| Supreme Court's got his back. | ||
| Suck on that, Weissman and MSNBC, Ari Melver. | ||
| And he's working on a peace deal here. | ||
| And these are going to try to do something with the Russians. | ||
| He's trying to stand the Chinese down. | ||
| And the jackals, all the jackals want, the jackals are there for the arms makers, the arms manufacturers. | ||
| Richard Barris, I'm so mad I could spit right now. | ||
| When my mother said that, that's when I knew we had hit her tripwire and it was time to tone it down because mom was going to make us stay on the front porch and wait for dad to get home from work. | ||
| Richard Barris, what do you got for us, sir? | ||
| Hey, thanks, Steve, as always, for having me on. | ||
| And let me just say, you know, I mean, thank God. | ||
| Thank God. | ||
| You know, we heard a lot of nonsense, Steve, you know, speaking of God to justify these things you were just talking about. | ||
| And, you know, the book I read is about peacemaking. | ||
| I don't know what book they got. | ||
| But yeah, we have been polling this. | ||
| And, you know, this is interesting that we timed this right. | ||
| Because if we would have started this poll on Friday night, the airstrikes would have came and it would have been irrelevant. | ||
| And we decided to look past all the just simpleton-worded questions that you were seeing in other polls to get down into what people really think the role of the U.S. should be in the Middle East and around the world. | ||
| And of course, we asked them whether they supported or opposed the airstrikes on the nuclear facilities and a host of other questions. | ||
| But when you get down to it, Americans just don't want this much of a warhawk posture in the rest of the world. | ||
| And if you have the graphic, we can show it. | ||
| That'd be great. | ||
| I just want to say this about Levin. | ||
| Put it up. | ||
| Marinate on this for a second, Steve. | ||
| Marinate on this for a second. | ||
| This is a guy who was telling his audience and followers in one breath that the president of the United States was senile and in the other breath was advocating for the U.S. to get involved in a war with another great nuclear power on behalf of Ukraine. | ||
| Just understand what that means, folks. | ||
| He wanted 20-something-year-old progressives and the deep state to basically just run the show in a war. | ||
| I mean, just marinate on that and take that in for a second. | ||
| But what you just saw on the screen, basically, is that there's a larger percentage in this country who actually want the United States to have no role in stabilizing the Middle East than having one that involves a military posture. | ||
| The biggest percentage, of course, is coming from people who do want somebody like Donald Trump, which is why he got elected, who his instincts are to pursue negotiations and to pursue peace, not to lay down and be, you know, spout these myths of empire. | ||
| Like I was telling you before with Lindsey Graham, it's the Neville Chamberlain of our time. | ||
| That's nonsense. | ||
| There is a way forward, of course, through negotiations. | ||
| There always has been. | ||
| And that's what the American public wants to see. | ||
| This is the entire public, not just a Trump voter. | ||
| I think it's important for people to understand they have to look below the top lines when we poll these things, Steve. | ||
| You cannot get to 50 plus one in this country with just the core support of Republican or core support of people who would vote for any Republican nominee. | ||
| It is Donald Trump who gets to 50 plus one and wins these battleground states because of the other one in four who want a different way forward than what they have seen over the last their entire lives. | ||
| Their entire lives. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So for us, support for the bombing was, you know, it wasn't great, especially among Trump's own supporters. | ||
| There's about a quarter of them that were really left scratching their heads, wondering, you know, what's going on here? | ||
| Get back to immigration. | ||
| Why are we doing this? | ||
| But I do think there's a window here where his instincts, if he moves forward with this path that you just laid out, is going to be popular. | ||
| This is the way forward. | ||
| This is what the American public wants to see. | ||
| Just give people, before you bounce, give people just the numbers. | ||
| The numbers are pretty overwhelming here. | ||
| Overwhelming. | ||
| We don't want to get involved in any more forever wars in the Middle East. | ||
| If Israel wants to take down Iran, President Trump just got a ceasefire. | ||
| They got to figure it out now, right? | ||
| They got to figure it out now. | ||
| It's their deal. | ||
| That's their deal, okay? | ||
| Not our deal. | ||
| And give me the backup. | ||
| What does MAGA want? | ||
| Yeah, if you can pull up Trump's voters too, which is something that is key to understanding why these numbers came up. | ||
| And just so people know, to stabilize the Middle East, even though it might mean a military action or conflict, there's only a quarter of this entire country. | ||
| When it comes to MAGA, it's even less. | ||
| It's less than two in 10. And MAGA, by MAGA, I mean, Trump supporters. | ||
| And MAGA, this shouldn't surprise anybody, right? | ||
| So MAGA is deeply distrustful of government. | ||
| They feel like Donald Trump was their last chance to get this country on the right track. | ||
| So I don't know why anyone suspected that they would not get pushback from a greater involvement, which, by the way, when it comes to the entire country, 26% told us, Steve, they don't think the U.S. should play a role at all in the Middle East. | ||
| That's a very large percentage for this country, considering its recent memory of American conflicts. | ||
| And the largest is about 37%, who say that we should have a role and we should try to stabilize the Middle East and get involved with preventing Iran's nuclear program. | ||
| But you're talking about only, it's 37%. | ||
| So when you combine it all together, 75% of the country does not, does not believe that we should be doing that. | ||
| And the reason why is right up on the screen right now. | ||
| That's the Trump voter. | ||
| And the reason why pollsters cannot get elections correctly is because they cannot poll the people you're looking at right here. | ||
| They are worried this will escalate. | ||
| They don't think it's a priority. | ||
| There are other priorities to them. | ||
| They don't think that you can just bomb a country and move on. | ||
| Maybe Trump pulls this off and that would be exactly what they want him to do. | ||
| But look at those numbers. | ||
| It's almost 70%. | ||
| You're just below 70% who think that it's at least somewhat likely that continued involvement in bombing these facilities would lead to escalation. | ||
| Escalation was defined in different ways. | ||
| Terror attacks, right? | ||
| It wasn't just lobbying a safe face attack at Qatar. | ||
| They're concerned about future terror attacks. | ||
| They remember that the Kuwait war was Harold is a great success, Steve. | ||
| And then this guy, Osama bin Laden, used it as a rally cry to build up his organization called Al-Qaeda. | ||
| They're not stupid. | ||
| Americans aren't stupid. | ||
| It's really how you talk to them, interview them, word the question. | ||
| That's absolutely true. | ||
| These dumb questions, like, do you support or oppose preventing Iran from getting a nuclear program? | ||
| That's ridiculous. | ||
| It's a ridiculous way to word this. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But no, they do it on purpose. | ||
| It's psychological warfare. | ||
| Of course they do. | ||
| Barris, where can they get, by the way, thank you for the myths of empire. | ||
| I'm all over that now. | ||
| Barris has got me rolling. | ||
| Where do people go, Richard? | ||
| You've got your YouTube. | ||
| You're doing all kind of media. | ||
| Actually, I should say the brains of the operation is the wife. | ||
| But Barris is a pretty good front man. | ||
| Pretty good front man. | ||
| So where do people go to get all your content, sir? | ||
| Yeah, the best place is always on locals. | ||
| Steve peoplespundant.locals.com. | ||
| Unless you were watching War Room tonight, because you got a bit of a sneak peek exclusive here. | ||
| This will all be out very soon. | ||
| And the first place you're going to get it is on locals. | ||
| Peoplespundent.locals.com. | ||
| We're everywhere, but that's it. | ||
| Are you putting that out tomorrow? | ||
| Is that when people, if they want to go to locals? | ||
| Is that when you're going to have it up? | ||
| Okay, perfect. | ||
| Yes, it will be out tomorrow. | ||
| Thank you for the sneak peek. | ||
| Thanks. | ||
| Very, very important. | ||
| You got it. | ||
| All the best, brother. | ||
| Barris will get it to you straight. | ||
| It's all about how you ask the question. | ||
| Whole psyop. | ||
| Julie Kelly, finally, we can pivot and talk about things that are important, okay? | ||
| Because it's redunculous to even discuss us in regards to regime change. | ||
| Julie Kelly, a massive, did President Trump, you've been kind of preaching this for a while, did the Supreme Court have President Trump's back today, ma'am? | ||
| Yes, they did. | ||
| And this relates to another key deportation policy of the Trump administration. | ||
| And this is sending convicted violent criminals who are also illegal aliens, sending them to third countries. | ||
| And this is part of negotiations by the President and Secretary of State Marco Rubio to take some of these illegals whose own home countries won't take them back and send them to other countries with which we have agreements. | ||
| And this related to deportation of eight violent criminals, illegals, who are being sent to South Sudan. | ||
| A Boston judge, Brian Murphy, in April, halted those deportation, that deportation policy. | ||
| And then what happened is these illegals, and I think it was ICE agents or U.S. Marshals or whoever had custody of these illegals being transported to South Sudan. | ||
| Now they're in this small country in the Horn of Africa. | ||
| I think they're on either some sort of military base or some constructed camp where they have been languishing for the better part of now two months, waiting for the Supreme Court to step in and halt this madness from Judge Brian Murphy. | ||
| And that's what the court in 6-3 decision did today. | ||
| So those deportations will continue. | ||
| The Department of Homeland Security just announcing within the past hour that they will continue those deportation flights, sending violent criminals who are legal aliens to third countries because their own countries will not accept them back. | ||
| Because of this war, we have not had you on for a while and talk about the whole judicial insurrection, which is, as we say, in this kind of global war, the most important front is in the United States of America to repel this invasion that the illegitimate Biden regime brought on. | ||
| Can you just get us up to speed? | ||
| You've been covering this better than anybody. | ||
| Where do we stand with everything we haven't focused on the last couple of weeks, ma'am? | ||
| So we still have a lot of these key deportation and immigration cases progressing. | ||
| What we will have next week, Steve, is a key appellate oral arguments in Texas. | ||
| And this is over the Alien Enemies Act. | ||
| And this is a case that the Supreme Court has really made a huge mess out of. | ||
| So you and I talked about this back in April. | ||
| We had Jeb Bosberg in March, you know, order the return of planes that were out of U.S. airspace about to land in Central America with illegal Venezuelans who were subjected to the newly signed Alien Enemies Act proclamation signed by President Trump on March 14th. | ||
| That kind of got the ball rolling. | ||
| The Supreme Court intervened, the D.C. Appellate Court and the Supreme Court claiming that these illegal Venezuelans were entitled to some sort of due process, some sort of Notice that they couldn't just be pulled off of, you know, out of their cars or wherever they were and then immediately taken to El Salvador and then returned to either Venezuela, stay in El Salvador, or other countries like we were just talking about. | ||
| So this is really one of the president's key signature deportation policies that not just the Supreme Court and Jeff Bosberg, but several other DC district courts have attempted to sabotage, have thwarted as well. | ||
| So there will be another appellate court review oral arguments on Monday, June 30th. | ||
| And this is in the 5th district. | ||
| And may not fare as well for the defenders. | ||
| The ACLU, which is the organization that's filing all these lawsuits to ban the deportation of these illegal Venezuelans, may not go over as well in the Fifth Circuit as it did in the DC Circuit. | ||
| But this is the case that will then end up back at the Supreme Court because the Supreme Court kicked this back to Texas. | ||
| So hopefully that makes sense. | ||
| But what we're seeing playing out is sort of what we saw playing out and are still seeing. | ||
| Hang on, hang on, slow down so I can understand this. | ||
| The Supreme Court, first off, this was filed in the wrong place in Bosberg. | ||
| They made him file in Texas because the plane left for Texas, correct? | ||
| They went judge shopping for a good district and they finally they said, hey, you got to go to Texas. | ||
| They filed in Texas. | ||
| Why is Bosberg even involved? | ||
| And be specific, why has the Supreme Court made a mess of this thing? | ||
| Well, they made a mess because they intervened in two cases, in the Bosberg case, where they said, well, okay, you don't have jurisdiction, and these really should be habeas claims, not lawsuits seeking what they're doing, temporary restraining orders and then preliminary injunctions, which act as, you know, to ban or halt these deportation policies, specifically the Alien Enemies Act. | ||
| So saying these defendants who were represented by the ACLU, they have to file habeas claims, which means they are objecting to their detention. | ||
| So these men are in custody. | ||
| So this is habeas claims saying the government has to prove why these individuals should be incarcerated or in custody. | ||
| So, but despite that, the case continued in Jeb Bossberg's courtroom. | ||
| He then initiated a contempt investigation into the Trump administration for refusing or failure, as he put it, to return those two planes on March 15th, just absolutely a crazy verbal command. | ||
| And so that was the basis of then a contempt investigation. | ||
| So that also is still progressing in his courtroom. | ||
| You're asking how still looking for a preliminary injunction based on other claims that the ACLU has now made related to the deportation of those illegal Venezuelans. | ||
| But this is playing out in, I think, at least eight other district courts, all the way from Washington to Texas to California. | ||
| And this will eventually get back to the Supreme Court, Steve. | ||
| And I suspect and predict what will happen is despite the Supreme Court getting involved, claiming that these illegal Venezuelans are entitled to some sort of notice. | ||
| And now we have federal judges who are all over the map, Steve. | ||
| One judge says they need 10 days notice. | ||
| Another judge says they need 30 days notice. | ||
| Another judge last week said, oh, they need 21 days notice, because it really hasn't ever been questioned or challenged before. | ||
| This is under the president's purview related to immigration policy, foreign relations. | ||
| These relate to sensitive negotiations that Marco Rubio and the administration have entered into to get rid of these illegal Venezuelans who are tied to Trendearagua, which has been designated a foreign terrorist organization. | ||
| So we're still waiting to see what will happen with that. | ||
| But today is a very good sign, I think, the 63 decision saying basically that these illegals aren't entitled to any notice, that if they have been deemed illegal, they have received their deportation orders, | ||
| removal orders, and their own home countries won't take them back or there's no arrangement to bring them back, then they are going to go to these other countries with which the administration has negotiated to take them. | ||
| And of course, they will be then incarcerated in those countries. | ||
| So this is a, it's a good sign, but it's also confusing, Steve, because how can you say this group is not entitled to notice and to lawyer up with ACLU or public defenders and all of these other rights that these judges and Supreme Court justices have been making up? | ||
| How can you say that this group doesn't need notice, but this group does? | ||
| So just another way to demonstrate how the Supreme Court has really made a mess on all of these issues. | ||
| I want to hold you through the break. | ||
| Would you say, as we sit here now, getting towards the end of June, can you believe that? | ||
| Is this thing flying? | ||
| Given where we spent the first six months with you, and particularly the intensity of this when they found out they could shop judges, I would say around late February, early March. | ||
| Is the heat on all these cases, on the 175 they've gotten, the district judges? | ||
| In fact, I want you to answer this when you get back, once you think about it. | ||
| Is the intensity of the judicial insurrection a little bit in ebb tide, right? | ||
| Not flood tide because of President Trump and the way the Justice Department, they're outgunned and overmanned, but are we winning? | ||
| Julie Kelly, just think about that because I want to get the overall big picture. | ||
| I understand that the intensity of the Justice Department and because they don't, you know, we haven't been able to get a super deep bench in there are kind of thin as they try to deal with everything else in the world. | ||
| I told you, Pan bonding these guys. | ||
| They're just hanging on for dear life. | ||
| There's so much to do. | ||
| I want to thank our sponsor, Birch Gold. | ||
| You know, Birch Gold, this is what good guys were. | ||
| I said years ago, I just don't want to sit there and talk and sell people on buying gold when they don't really understand what a hedge is, why gold has actually been a hedge for as long as mankind's recorded history has been. | ||
| And they were 100% in. | ||
| This is why we started the end of the dollar empire. | ||
| We wanted to focus on something. | ||
| I said, let's focus on the dollar as the prime reserve currency. | ||
| I don't think 99% of people in the world, if they haven't gone to business school or studied finance or work on Wall Street, don't really understand that and don't understand. | ||
| People in the city don't, the Imperial Capital. | ||
| Some do. | ||
| And they said, let's do it. | ||
| So over the last four years, end of the dollar empire. | ||
| Get it. | ||
| Seven free installments. | ||
| We're working on an eighth. | ||
| I think we'll put that out right after the RIA reset. | ||
| The seventh is the RIA reset. | ||
| Virtual.com, promo code BANNNON. | ||
| Just go there today and get it. | ||
| Short break. | ||
| the one and only julie kelly on the other side yeah yeah here's your host Okay, I'm going to get this to Denver momentarily. | ||
| Julie Kelly's with us, but breaking news. | ||
| This is CNBC. | ||
| Trump announces Israel-Iran ceasefire timeline. | ||
| He says, We'll end the war. | ||
| Live updates. | ||
| President Trump has announced a ceasefire timeline. | ||
| He says we'll end the war between Israel and Iran on the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will. | ||
| I would like to congratulate both countries, Israel and Iran, on having the stamina, courage, and intelligence to end what should be called the 12-day war. | ||
| Right now, Grace and Moa tell me, I don't think we've heard any response from Israel or Iran. | ||
| CNN had a story up that they pulled down saying, hey, they talked to some people, nobody knew anything about it. | ||
| I'm sure in the fog of war here, folks, we're going to get some clarity. | ||
| President Trump's been known to get out, you know, as soon as the deal is made, to get out there quickly and to move things along. | ||
| But we'll find out here. | ||
| We'll find out here momentarily. | ||
| Blessed are the peacemakers. | ||
| Blessed are the peacemakers. | ||
| That's Donald Trump. | ||
| 10 Nobel Prizes are not enough for this guy. | ||
| When everybody else, they're going down the vortex to a brutal war, right? | ||
| President Trump pulls it out and says, no, we're going to have a ceasefire. | ||
| And in that ceasefire, he'll hammer out something. | ||
| Julie Kelly, so the answer, and President Trump, I just want everybody to know that it's the Article II powers that they're challenging because they hate Trump and they don't think he deserves to be President of the United States. | ||
| So what they're going to try to do is go to the office of the president, what the Constitution says, as is Article II powers, and they're going to say, no, you're not chief executive officer of the United States government. | ||
| Therefore, you cannot stop spending that you think is wrong and you cannot fire people that you think ought to be fired. | ||
| Number one. | ||
| Number two, as commander-in-chief, as commander-in-chief, yeah, if you're doing things we'd like, like sending arms to Ukraine or bombing over in Persia, the apparatus in the deep state, we'd like those. | ||
| You can do that. | ||
| We won't challenge your Article II powers. | ||
| But if you want to deport the 10 million illegal alien invaders here, invited here by the illegitimate Biden regime and Majorca and that crowd, no, we're going to stop you. | ||
| And that's what you're seeing. | ||
| And by the way, if you want to take the neo-Confederates and the California government and say there's not going to be sanctuary cities, and I'm not going to let the cities burn, and if I have to send the National Guard in there and federalize them, I'm going to do it as my powers as commander-in-chief. | ||
| And oh, by the way, eventually, if I've got to take away habeas corpus and ship some of these folks out of here, I'm going to do what Abraham Lincoln did. | ||
| Okay, not there yet, but that's his Article 2 powers. | ||
| In Article 2 Power, he's chief magistrate and chief law enforcement officer. | ||
| Right there, and they're trying to hinder him. | ||
| So across the board, Julie Kelly, are we at ebb tide finally, or is it kind of just quieted out because they were running the tables there for a while, were they not, ma'am? | ||
| Oh, they absolutely were. | ||
| And to an extent, they still are. | ||
| We're still seeing these decisions come down. | ||
| We had this magistrate, a judge in Tennessee, Barbara Holmes, who last night issued this ridiculous 51-page order defending our favorite Maryland dad, Kilmar Adrego Garcia, who was hit with a two-count federal criminal indictment for human smuggling. | ||
| Also allegations in there of drug narcotics and firearms and transporting minors as well. | ||
| And what she did in this order, and I'm reporting on this, I'll have a piece on my sub stack tomorrow on this. | ||
| What she did is just dismantle the DOJ's indictment against the Maryland dad Kilmar Obregulo Garcia, who of course became the cause celeb of the left. | ||
| He is an illegal El Salvadoran man who was ordered, removed in 2019, but not to go back to El Salvador amid alleged fears that rival gangs or gang members would retaliate against him. | ||
| Well, he was deported to El Salvador. | ||
| The government said, DOJ said, okay, we recognize that's not where he's supposed to go. | ||
| But it was too late because he became the poster child of the, you know, the first Trump administration, we had, you know, kids in cages. | ||
| And this time around, we have illegal El Salvadorans or Salvadorans and Venezuelans who are gangbangers, which there's no question Kilmar Orego Garcia is. | ||
| Member of MS-13 caught on bodyworn camera footage in 2022 in Tennessee, transporting several individuals in a vehicle that did not belong to him that was later tied to another human smuggler. | ||
| So the Trump administration did return Mr. Garcia and his welcome mat was this two-count federal indictment. | ||
| The DOJ sought what's called pre-trial detention, Steve, which means he will be held behind bars pending trial because he is a dangerous individual. | ||
| And this judge, Barbara Holmes, knowing that he won't be released on the street because he's going to be in custody as an illegal, as ICE deals, as the DHS deals with his outstanding removal orders where he's going to go. | ||
| So instead, she turned this order into a political instrument to produce headlines to deconstruct on her own without any testimony, any trial, any significant number of hearings. | ||
| She determined on her own that this indictment was bogus, that Mr. There was not enough proof that he indeed was a human smuggler. | ||
| She spent 15 pages, Steve, explaining why, even if he did transport minors, meaning individuals under the age of 18, even if he did transport them, they are not victims. | ||
| This is what she said, among other outrageous claims. | ||
| But of course, Barbara Holmes got the, produced the headlines that she wanted. | ||
| We saw it wall-to-wall, Politico and ABC News and NBC News saying, you know, judge blows holes in the federal case against Marilyn Dad Kilmar Garcia. | ||
| But of course, the DOJ, this is not the last word on it. | ||
| They have sought again to vacate Barbara Holmes's, to overturn her ruling to keep him detained. | ||
| And then, of course, again, we'll deal with his criminal indictment as well as his outstanding removal order. | ||
| So these judges are still playing political games. | ||
| But as it does reach the higher courts, especially Supreme Court, we see better outcomes. | ||
| See, Kate, hang on for one second. | ||
| This is what I said about opportunity cost, right? | ||
| And the convergence of these crises. | ||
| Remember you heard that? | ||
| The convergence of these crises, the Third World War, the invasion on our southern borders and our sovereignty, the financial and economic now converging into one thing. | ||
| And you see this judicial insurrection, which is part of the sovereignty and also President Trump's just ability to execute his office under Article II of the Constitution. | ||
| This war, clearly, President Trump is sucked into it 24 hours a day, right? | ||
| Because you got the National Guard. | ||
| Just handling. | ||
| If justice has to come, because they brief him, he demands to be briefed on what they're, you know, to read the briefs or what they're going back with and to have Pam and the rest of the folks over there, Todd Blanche, walking through one of the stand. | ||
| There's over, I think, 125. | ||
| They're trying to tie him down. | ||
| If you look at the big, beautiful bill, if you look at the complexity of all this, how does a guy in 24 hours even get an hour's sleep? | ||
| This is my point about the pressure on him. | ||
| These cases right here, Julie Kelly, you're the best around and you can barely keep your head above water, right? | ||
| Just in the volume of what they're throwing out at him. | ||
| And this is their strategy to delay us to deny. | ||
| Yes, it is. | ||
| Think about having Pam Bondi or Todd Blanche or these guys come over and brief you every other day of where we stand and how it's moving through courts. | ||
| Just the complexity, you would have a migraine headache and that even gets you to working on the war or working on the finance and economics and the tax cut. | ||
| They're trying to break him by overwhelming him on this. | ||
| Are they not, ma'am? | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| I mean, this is the court version of the special counsel Robert Mueller investigation, which sucked up so much time and resources and attention the first half of President Trump's first term, and of course, monopolized the headlines. | ||
| And this is exactly what you're getting with these various lawsuits and court proceedings. | ||
| So I don't know how anyone at the Department of Justice can really get anything done aside from playing whack-a-mole with these lawsuits and these court orders and then having to file appeals and then having to go to the Supreme Court on every single one. | ||
| And I mean, you're still talking about an extremely systemically corrupt Department of Justice who they've already identified prosecutors who did not represent the administration's views on certain things and they had to be fired and removed. | ||
| So you're going in there sort of blind. | ||
| You and I talked about this last week. | ||
| Okay, we've got great leadership at the DOJ. | ||
| We've got a handful of really good men and women there, but you still have tens of thousands of employees. | ||
| You don't know who you can trust. | ||
| Same thing with the FBI. | ||
| So these court proceedings, these lawsuits are absolutely one of the ways to wear down the administration, take away time and resources and attention from other priorities. | ||
| But Steve, this also goes to, okay, what if the Supreme Court eventually says this fall that under the Alien Enemies Act, which almost every judge, even Judge Bosberg, even the Supreme Court, judges who have declared that his invocation of the Alien Enemies Act was unlawful because there was no invasion, there was no predatory incursion. | ||
| These are some of the elements that are in the AEA. | ||
| What if the Supreme Court ultimately rules sort of what they are signaling in today's decision, that there is no right of notice for illegal Venezuelans or any illegal covered by an Alien Enemies Act proclamation? | ||
| Then what happens? | ||
| The president has lost 10, well, let's say it's this fall. | ||
| Let's say they decide something in October or November. | ||
| He's lost eight months. | ||
| He signed it in March, eight months of being able to remove some of the most dangerous illegal aliens in our country. | ||
| Steve, we had more than 600,000 illegal Venezuelans cross the border under the Biden regime. | ||
| Most of them, the overwhelming majority, were young men. | ||
| We already know that Venezuela is a hostile regime working with, yes, countries like Iran to try to destroy America, shipping These young men tied to Trendiaragua into the United States, where they're getting footholds in certain areas and certain cities and communities. | ||
| So he has now been hamstrung for months, will continue to do so for months while this slowly winds its way through the appellate courts back to the Supreme Court, where I can't imagine a scenario, even if the Supreme Court says, okay, alien enemies need 48 hours notice. | ||
| Okay, so he has to go back to every single case now and give them 48 hours notice, but you've already lost a huge chunk of your first year in office. | ||
| We saw this playbook, the first Trump administration, and this is how they're doing it this time around. | ||
| They're trying to do it. | ||
| Julie, where do people go? | ||
| You've been doing this on the sub stack. | ||
| Make it smart. | ||
| In the next, let's say this next week as he's hammering out the additional ceasefire and try to get even something more, even better than what they've got right now on a ceasefire. | ||
| What is the next big thing you see and what should we be prepared for and looking for? | ||
| So I'm going to write up this piece I'm working on right now, this order from Barbara Holmes, which was another crazy one about orego Garcia. | ||
| So that case is still unfolding. | ||
| As I said next Monday, key appellate oral arguments in Texas related to the Alien Enemies Act, but also kind of starting to look also at the weaponization, what's happening with the 2020 election investigation disclosures that we got last week that you and I talked about about potential interference. | ||
| Well, we know interference by China, but to what degree in the president's call for a special prosecutor, special counsel to investigate 2020 election fraud. | ||
| I am told there's more coming on that front. | ||
| And so we will, I'll be seeing what's happening there. | ||
| And something that's kind of been under the radar, President Trump mentioning one of our favorites, Lisa Monaco, a few weeks ago as perhaps one of the ghost autopen writers. | ||
| But I have to suspect that she also is under investigation for nearly a decade of trying to sabotage the president and use law affair against him. | ||
| God, I hope she is. | ||
| I hope they get a criminal grand jury in that she's one of them. | ||
| She just went to, was it Microsoft? | ||
| She just went as general counsel? | ||
| She went somewhere big. | ||
| I got to remember this. | ||
| She went to one of the biggest. | ||
| She's making $5 million a year as general counsel somewhere. | ||
| Corrupt as they come. | ||
| Corrupt as they come. | ||
| Julie Kelly, where do we go? | ||
| Your piece on Substack's going to be up when? | ||
| I'm going to try to get it up tonight or tomorrow morning. | ||
| Declassified with Julie Kelly. | ||
| And also, I'm on X a lot, as you know, Julie underscore Kelly too. | ||
| Thank you, ma'am. | ||
| Appreciate you. | ||
| The great Julie Kelly. | ||
| God, I'm glad to be covering stuff other than we're going to find out. | ||
| President Trump, look, they're going to try to, he's a master negotiator. | ||
| He's pulled this off. | ||
| Look, a ceasefire. | ||
| I think it's kind of complicated. | ||
| It looks like the Iranians are going to take the first 12 hours, I guess, because nobody trusts them, right? | ||
| And then after that, the Israelis for 12 hours, and then I guess they're done. | ||
| They're going to have a general ceasefire. | ||
| Matthew 5, 9, right? | ||
| Chapter 5, verse 9, King James Version. | ||
| Blessed are the peacemakers, for they should be called children of God. | ||
| Now, the president's supposed to fly over to NATO, and he may still be doing that, and maybe they refine and start working on the deal there. | ||
| Like I said, CNN had an article up saying, hey, certain guys over there hadn't heard about it, but they have deleted it. | ||
| Oh, it was 10 minutes before the president's statement. | ||
| That's when it was up. | ||
| That's when he's still negotiating. | ||
| The president's put this out. | ||
| And he's shown, and you saw there the upsell of Mark Levin and Lindsey Graham. | ||
| You heard it. | ||
| For all its glory, for Lindsey Graham, that's the best. | ||
| He brought everything. | ||
| He brought it right there. | ||
| You heard it. | ||
| As infantile and immature as that was, that's the best they got. | ||
| That's the best they got for getting involved in regime change. | ||
| Because they want us up to our neck. | ||
| And this is my point. | ||
| If you do that, there's no opportunity to do anything else. | ||
| His entire term is going to be in there, going to be in Persia. | ||
| That's not where President Trump has got so much work to do. | ||
| He knows he's got to do it to turn this country around. | ||
| Remember, General Washington at the birth of the nation, Abraham Lincoln at the rebirth of the nation, and President Trump at the reclaiming of the nation, the reclamation, the returning of America to, wait for it, her former greatness. | ||
| And how's that going to come? | ||
| How are you going to do that? | ||
| How are you going to do that? | ||
| Number one, you're going to get her sovereignty back by stopping an invasion that's unprecedented. | ||
| Mark Levin and Lindsey Graham. | ||
| And Lindsey, you were one of the guys pushing hard on the Langford bill. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| You've been pushing amnesty. | ||
| When I was in the White House, dude, you were trying everything with Dick Durbin. | ||
| You were working behind Stephen Millermine's back. | ||
| Oh, banning these guys. | ||
| They're hardcore. | ||
| You don't care about the sovereignty of this nation. | ||
| You care about Ukraine because your arms makers, the weapons makers, they have you on the payroll as your big donors and your sponsors, right? | ||
| And you're sitting there knowing what President Trump's working on, and you're down there in the Senate as hard as you can pushing a forever war, just like you did in Iraq. | ||
| Pushing a forever war. | ||
| And Levin's up there challenging, oh, you can't leave these guys in power. | ||
| You can't leave these guys in power. | ||
| Well, President Trump worked out ceasefires. | ||
| Everybody put down their guns. | ||
| There's no more ballistic missiles going to Tel Aviv tonight. | ||
| No more ballistic missiles going to the rest of Israel. | ||
| And hopefully no more bombing runs over Tehran. | ||
| And let them figure it out. | ||
| And let the people of Persia, let them figure it out. | ||
| I'm not, hell, the Mulas are detestable. | ||
| They're bad ombres. | ||
| They should go. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| But it's not for us to go over there and do it. | ||
| If Israel can't live like that anymore, then go do it. | ||
| Finish what you started. | ||
| If President Trump's going to have you lay down your guns, then hopefully you make arguments and the people in Persia do it. | ||
| Hell, they pale in comparison. | ||
| All that talk about the Moodles, they killed all 1,000 people. | ||
| Yes, killing any American citizen is terrible. | ||
| And killing the Marines in that barracks is terrible. | ||
| And should have been, the revenge on that should have been decades ago. | ||
| But that pales in comparison to the 1 million on fentanyl that the Chinese Communist Party has killed. | ||
| Look at any of these small towns in America. | ||
| People walk around like zombies. | ||
| It's 50,000 dead, but how many lives have they destroyed? | ||
| How many families have they destroyed? | ||
| How many communities have they destroyed? | ||
| Do I see you up there every day talking about that? | ||
| Did I see Fox? | ||
| No, because the corrupt Murdochs are in business with them. | ||
| The corrupt Murdoch are in business, but the hedge funds are in business with them. | ||
| The elites in this country, the people that run this country in business, and Lindsay, you're sitting there going Nazis, Nazis, Nazis. | ||
| It pales in comparison to the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| Hell, they killed 400 or 500 million just in forced abortions alone. | ||
| I want to thank our sponsors for sticking with us and being proud to be with us. | ||
| And this is another aspect we're getting. | ||
| They're trying to get off the dollar. | ||
| They're trying to crush the United States. | ||
| The Chinese Communist Party is trying to do that. | ||
| I see you up there whining about that. | ||
| No. | ||
| Totally revolting. | ||
| I want to thank Birch Golden. | ||
