| This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
| Pray for our enemies. | ||
| Because we're going medieval on these people. | ||
| You're not going to get a free shot on all these networks lying about the people. | ||
| The people have had a belly full of it. | ||
| I know you don't like hearing that. | ||
| I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
| And where do people like that go to share the big lie? | ||
| MAGA media. | ||
| I wish, in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience. | ||
| Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? | ||
| If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. | ||

Warroom. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Banner. | ||
| Okay, welcome back. | ||
| Saturday, 16 August, Year of Alert 2025. | ||
| Jim Rickards, the middle of the night, we're going to let you go because it's two wee hours of the morning. | ||
| Just your thoughts. | ||
| By the way, Rickards War Room is the landing page we got, RickardsWarRoom.com. | ||
| So go check it out today. | ||
| Get informed like the leaders of these corporations and governments throughout the world. | ||
| Also, he throws in a free book, Money GPT, where he warns you. | ||
| He warns you about AI and fiat currency. | ||
| Make sure you learn the lesson. | ||
| Jim Rickards, the Middle Night. | ||
| Just give me, okay, Zelensky's coming on Monday afternoon. | ||
| Of course, Real America's Voice. | ||
| We're going to cover it all wall-to-wall live like we did yesterday. | ||
| He's already put out a list of demands. | ||
| In fact, we can put that up in media. | ||
| It's in a pretty good summary of it. | ||
| A list of demands. | ||
| Your thoughts about the Monday meeting, Jim, before you punch out. | ||
| Your Steve, I said it was easy to know what Putin was going to say in Alaska because he's been saying the same thing for four years. | ||
| It's easy to know what Zelensky is going to say on Monday because he's been saying the same thing for four years. | ||
| He's going to want more troops, more money, more weapons and security guarantees. | ||
| He should get none of the above. | ||
| And by the way, one of the dangers is there is pending legislation. | ||
| Of course, in the Senate side, Lindsey Graham, Tom Cotton are behind it. | ||
| And there's a lot of support in the House for exactly that, for at least more money and more weapons for Ukraine. | ||
| I hope that gets shot down, but it's too early to say. | ||
| There's a good chance that we'll just keep. | ||
| the war going. | ||
| Hold on, hold on, hold on. | ||
| Mikowski is driving that. | ||
| It's 38 billion dollars, folks. | ||
| 38. | ||
| Trump's trying to downs it's 38 billion dollars for more aid, more weapons and more financial support, Jim. | ||
| And yes, you're right. | ||
| It's making progress because there's a lot of globalists and the donors are all globalists, so that's making progress. | ||
| We're going to have to fight that one too, sir. | ||
| Steve, I watched this very carefully. | ||
| To me, the most powerful image that came out of Alaska, Putin went to the grave sites of some Russian pilots who were buried in Alaska. | ||
| By the way, I spent a lot of time in Alaska. | ||
| Americans don't know that during World War two, we provided a lot of aircraft to Russia through Alaska. | ||
| They raised a P-38 so we gave him a paint job and they flew him over. | ||
| As a result, there are some crashes and some deceased Russian pilots in Alaska. | ||
| Putin went to the grave and he got on his knees. | ||
| He laid a wreath and he stood up and made the sign of the cross. | ||
| Now read Tolstoy, read Solzhenitsyn, watch that clip from Putin. | ||
| It's about ten seconds long. | ||
| It tells you all you need to know. | ||
| Russia is a deeply religious country and for the so-called experts like Fiona Hill and the secularists who don't understand that, they'll never understand Russia. | ||
| Jim Rickards, go to rickardswarroom dot com. | ||
| It's the landing page. | ||
| You get strategic intelligence. | ||
| Sir, I thank you so much for standing up in the middle of the night to join us here on Saturday morning in the Imperial Capitol. | ||
| We look forward to seeing you early next week after Zelensky's visit. | ||
| So thank you so much. | ||
| Incredible. | ||
| And he nailed it right there at the end. | ||
| He stuck the landing. | ||
| Jack Basovic, somebody gave us a heads up on this beforehand was Jack Basovic to say, hey, watch Putin. | ||
| He's going to do something symbolic that reinforces the Christian faith and reinforces that we were allies. | ||
| Remember, the mainstream media yesterday mocked the first four or five minutes of his speech, Jack, where he talked about World War II, but we commemorated throughout the day on the 80th anniversary of the surrender of Imperial Japan. | ||
| Putin started his first four or five minutes and today in all the assessments, they're mocking that. | ||
| Oh, he talked about World War II. | ||
| He didn't talk about things are current. | ||
| These people are evil. | ||
| They are evil and they do not want the Russian people and the American people to come together and work together like we did in the Second World War to destroy basically the fascists and the imperialists and all their collaborators, which are all the leaders, all the nations of NATO and all their leaders in NATO back in the 1940s. | ||
| Where were they? | ||
| Here's where they were, either side by side with the Italians and the Germans, or they were conflicted. | ||
| collaborators like in Norway, in Ireland and other places. | ||
| Jack Pesobik, you were there, brother. | ||
| Take us through the day. | ||
| Well, Steve, that's exactly right. | ||
| And it didn't surprise me at all. | ||
| And it certainly wouldn't surprise the war room audience that I previewed those grave sites. | ||
| I said the Russian side has been talking about this, that Russian media has emphasized this, the Kremlin have emphasized this. | ||
| And of course, President Putin, one of the very first things he said was to solidify this history. | ||
| And what's interesting, Steve, is of course the media, they don't understand what's going on here. | ||
| They don't understand the way that two countries can actually effectuate a reset in relations is by reflections on shared history, shared loss, and in this case shared sacrifice in that fight of World War two. | ||
| So having fought side by side, and there aren't a lot of instances, but you know when it comes up to the Alaskan Air Bridge, the back door to the Len Lease program to get those American fighter planes and bombers over to the Russians so that they could use them to fight in the East, to fight in Stalingrad, all of that history actually is shared history between the United States and Russia. | ||
| fighting against fascist Germany and the Third Reich all the way back through the 1940s. | ||
| And of course, that's why they're bringing this up. | ||
| Steve, the media came out of there saying there is no ceasefire. | ||
| How could President Trump sign a ceasefire for Ukraine when he's not in charge of the Ukrainian army? | ||
| I look at some of this neocon, neoliberal coverage, and I don't think they understand what's going on. | ||
| But at a higher level, I think that their owners, the corporate backers, do understand what's going on. | ||
| They understand that this is rapprochement, that this is a thaw in the relations, ironically enough, a thaw in Alaska. | ||
| in relations between the United States and Russia. | ||
| And think about the billions of dollars and the time and the deaths and all of which has piled up to prevent the leaders of the United States and Russia simply from sitting down in the back of a limo and hashing some things out. | ||
| And as President Trump has said again and again and again, it is better for the world that the two largest nuclear superpowers have a good working relationship than to have them at conflict. | ||
| But of course, this is a direct threat to the Atlanticist access because all of their power goes away if you supersede and that's what they did they supersede all of nato all of the eu and zelensky himself um put us on the plane okay we got up to speed with you yesterday your total was like going out we haven't had a chance you guys got back in in the early morning hours right like 2 45 a.m three o'clock is | ||
| when it landed when you landed in um in andrews air force base Here's the best part of it, right? | ||
| We land around 0200, 0230, and we load up, grab all of our gear, say, okay, we're going to hit the motorcade because those are fast. | ||
| movements. | ||
| If you miss the movement, you're, you know, you're in big trouble because now you're stuck. | ||
| Secret Service might get you. | ||
| The car's leaving when the car's leaving. | ||
| So you have to get in. | ||
| You have to get it fast. | ||
| So we all gear up. | ||
| We're ready to go. | ||
| And then when they say hold, so what do you mean hold? | ||
| And then we can see the Secret Service sitting down in the compartment just a forward from us. | ||
| We said, Why is the Secret Service sitting down? | ||
| I thought we're all leaving. | ||
| Caroline Levitt comes back to us, the press secretary. | ||
| Incredible job because she's up working at the same time. | ||
| She comes back and she says, I want to let you know why we're all sitting here. | ||
| President Trump's in the middle of a phone call and he doesn't want to hang up to have to go to the motorcade and lose the call. | ||
| He's one of the NATO heads right now, one of the EU leaders, and he doesn't want to leave until he's finished his call. | ||
| And he said, we said, wait a minute. | ||
| We've been in the air for six and a half hours. | ||
| What do you mean he's still on the phone? | ||
| Steve, he was on the phone the whole time. | ||
| So even after we had landed at Andrews, President Trump was still in the process of working through these, and as he said, these tough phone calls, these not easy phone calls with the NATO leaders and with Zelensky. | ||
| And so we held there. | ||
| Then when he was finished, we got the disembark order. | ||
| We disembarked, got video of him coming down. | ||
| No questions again, no gaggle, no spray. | ||
| As he got off the plane, then straight back to the White House, and then from the White House eventually was able to get a little ph rack time, a little my pillow time, but now I'm here back in the war room. | ||
| But hang on a second, hang on a second. | ||
| This is unbelievable. | ||
| The guy, you guys, it's a pre-dawn launch. | ||
| So he's up at three or four anyway to get ready. | ||
| It's 24 hours. | ||
| He's still working the phones because it's a six-hour, even with the tailwinds, it's a six-hour flight back six and a half hours. | ||
| He's working the phones, and you're telling me you guys land and you have a hold on the tarmac because he wants to finish the phone call. | ||
| He doesn't want to break continuity because they're in the discussion. | ||
| He's making the deal, right, or at least pushing things forward, and he doesn't want to. | ||
| He's been working the entire time. | ||
| I mean, who does that? | ||
| This guy's a machine. | ||
| I've never seen anybody like it. | ||
| at at his age to see someone like this and you hear you hear people now you go watch the huberman podcast and all the people are saying oh i got trouble with with uh you know being tired and i'm tired and i got trouble with energy and this and and to see him to be able to do that and put on a master class for everyone and i want people to understand the the entire team is there as well uh working and to support all of these calls from uh ratcliffe to susie wilds to scott besant, | ||
| who I got a chance to see yesterday, Pete Hegseth, Marco Ruby, the whole team, the whole team is there and all the press team took really good care of us. | ||
| And so it's very much a working plane. | ||
| This is not a place where you're going to go and, okay, you're going to nod off, you're on a private jet for a couple of hours. | ||
| Absolutely not. | ||
| You're working the whole time. | ||
| It's essentially the airborne White House and the work absolutely never stops. | ||
| He's in comms the whole time. | ||
| And yes, and he mentioned it in his Hannity interview yesterday. | ||
| You could tell, you know, where he says, I wish I hadn't agreed to this interview. | ||
| And Sean, of course, sort of taken it back. | ||
| Are you saying on live TV that you wish you hadn't done an interview. | ||
| And you can get this sense that he wants to get on the phone because he realizes that what's what's come here, he realizes what the stakes are, and he doesn't want to be spending time with media because he wanted to be able to get to work. | ||
| And I think that's really what the essential bottom line is, because the upshot of all of this is that President Trump was never able, and I saw the neocon media saying, oh, well, he didn't get a ceasefire. | ||
| Well, he can't order a ceasefire unilaterally. | ||
| You have to get the Russians and the Ukrainians to order a ceasefire, because if he says ceasefire, Russia agrees, and then Zelenskyy does another operation spider web or something now the entire peace process is blown up so he's got to get on the phone he's got to get the eu leaders to buy in and of course that's why now of course we're seeing this meeting that's on the books uh locked in on monday where president zelensky will be flying returning uh making his return to the oval office and uh of course of course we'll all be watching to see his attire for | ||
| this second meeting the the unacceptable uh behavior of the media yesterday i think exposed to the people of the world uh what jackals they are right they have no composure no control throwing invective at both Putin really that was their focus and target but also at President Trump was the ultimate payback because when we're sitting here in the war and we've just gotten off the air when he just sits here, | ||
| Putin's got his six minutes, Trump's like two minutes greater. | ||
| They grab, shake hands like an aphomale shake and then walk off and the media's a meltdown. | ||
| It's one of the greatest I stood up and gave a standing ovation, right? | ||
| Hell yes. | ||
| Was that a prime moment yesterday when you basically told the media you're not worthy of taking a question from? | ||
| And Steve, you know, you got to put that in context of what happened during the press, what they called the press spray just a few hours earlier. | ||
| So at the start of the meeting, which was noon local time in Anchorage, that was when they usher us into this small room and we're there, the President of the United States, President of Russia, the two most powerful people in the world, their entire delegations were brought in for a photo op. | ||
| They never said that they were going to be taking questions. | ||
| And, you know, I don't know, maybe I was raised a little differently, but, you know, if I'm in a room with guys like that and they say we're not taking questions, I'm going to wait until they tell us it's okay to ask questions. | ||
| And then all of a sudden, they, you know, I hear these voices screaming. | ||
| why are you killing? | ||
| Why are you doing the killing? | ||
| Why are you bombing this? | ||
| Why are you bombing that? | ||
| And, you know, it's a war. | ||
| We understand what the situation is and what the consequences are. | ||
| But also, we are hopeful that we can stop those things with a peace deal. | ||
| That's the entire point of the exercise. | ||
| That's the evolution. | ||
| That's why we flew all the way here. | ||
| So it is invective, and it was, to my mind, an attempt to try to sabotage all of this, and probably why there were no questions later at the press conference. | ||
| on for one second jack basobik's with us captain jim finnels with us i got the uh i got the best of naval intelligence is with us as we break it all down in the war room. | ||

| Now we got Pasovic. | ||
| Let's go. | ||
| We're going to play some of the clips from the open the show. | ||
| I have Jack Pasovic to opine. | ||
| Let's roll. | ||
| And two things I think we have to be very concerned about and offer advice to President Trump is to avoid two things. | ||
| One, a huge underwriting commitment to the redevelopment of Ukraine. | ||
| We have more than 37 trillion dead and $2 trillion deficits and no end in sight. | ||
| And inflation, the inflation that's there driven not by terrorists, but driven by the Keynesian stimulus we still put in with these deficits and with Congress refusing to consider resisions or pocket resisions or impoundments, that this orgy of spending just continues on and on and on, that we have to avoid us stepping up and being a major commitment and even American financial institutions, their focus should be the United States of America. | ||
| We have more than enough need for development in this country, tremendous needs for development in this country. | ||
| You don't need to look in Europe and particularly in Ukraine for the United States to be involved. | ||
| And not just the development guarantees and the capital guarantees, even darker are what we call security guarantees. | ||
| essentially mean American, not just arms, but American troops. | ||
| Now, maybe it starts off American troops aren't there, but you set up a tripwire like it would be tantamount to including Ukraine in NATO as an Article 5 country if the Russians are to do anything in the future. | ||
| So a security guarantee and any type of economic guarantees we really have to fight to make sure that we don't get entrapped further. | ||
| Remember the whole purpose of America first is to get out of these entanglements. | ||
| To let the Europeans and the Russians figure it out. | ||
| I'm an advocate that after this deal is done, I don't even know why we have any more combat troops in Europe. | ||
| World War two's over. | ||
| This is the 80th commemoration. | ||
| You put this part of the war to bed. | ||
| It's no need for American combat troops in Germany, the tens of thousands of combat troops we have. | ||
| We have more than enough needs for hemispheric defense throughout the cities of the United States, the border of the United States, down in Panama, taking back the Panama Canal, in the Pacific, in our territories, not in foreign territories, but in our territories as rapid deployment forces. | ||
| This should be the focus. | ||
| We're following several breaking developments on talks to end Russia's war on Ukraine. | ||
| First, a European official tells CNN that part of their overnight. | ||
| conversations with President Donald Trump included Article 5 type security guarantees for Ukraine with European and U.S. backing in the event of a peace deal. | ||
| President Donald Trump got back to Joint Base Andrews a few hours ago, fresh off a summit with President Putin in Anchorage. | ||
| He just posted new details about the summit and his phone call with Ukrainian President Zelensky and NATO leaders on the flight home. | ||
| Here's what we know. | ||
| Trump says everyone agreed that the best way to end the war would be to go straight to a peace agreement, not a ceasefire deal. | ||
| He went on to say that Zelensky would come to Washington, D.C. Washington DC on Monday and if that works out, they would schedule a meeting with Putin. | ||
| The hours before Zelensky said on X that Ukraine is ready to go full tilt to achieve peace and he supports President Trump's proposal for a trilateral meeting. | ||
| After Friday's summit, both Trump and Putin claim progress. | ||
| The key development today appears to be the nature of the security guarantees that appear to be the sweetener for any deal for Ukraine here. | ||
| Now, we don't have a full readout of the US position on this, but we've just heard from European leaders a statement with the EU head Ursula von der Leyen and eight other nations referring to the need for concrete security guarantees, something that's been added to by French President Emmanuel Macron just now in a social media post referring to the US willingness to contribute to those security guarantees. | ||
| Okay, Jack Pesova, you got it right there, what we warned about. | ||
| It's a massive financial commitment on reconstruction. | ||
| Larry Finch just took over the World Economic Forum last night. | ||
| They got rid of Klaus Schwab, but they're not going to charge him with any crimes for stealing or embezzlement. | ||
| And Fink's already said he's going to put American capital, American pension workers' capital to work over there. | ||
| Then you've got this issue of security guarantees, we warned about. | ||
| This is Article 5. | ||
| So essentially, the globalists in the EU and NATO, what they want is the objectives of the war to have Ukraine in the EU and to have Ukraine in NATO. | ||
| Now with the Article 5 security guarantee by the Americans and with some hotheads still in Ukraine, and I'm not saying they shouldn't be hotheads. | ||
| There's a million people dead and wounded over there, and these cities have been leveled. | ||
| There's a lot of animosity, more hatred there than there is in the West Bank because there's been more destruction and you know how they hate each other in the West Bank. | ||
| Jack Pasovic, your observations on this, brother? | ||
| Well, Steve, this of course strikes to the heart of it. | ||
| When Putin talks about and Lavrov has spoken at length about this and I've seen his interviews as well, they all talk about how it is a complete red line for them for Ukraine to be in NATO. | ||
| And yes, that would include a de facto NATO protection because of course if Ukraine is given Article 5 security guarantee, that's essentially a de facto NATO membership in and of itselfelf. | ||
| What they're looking for is neutrality on Ukraine so that neither side has Ukraine, neither the CIS framework that, of course, you're seeing from between Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, some of the other states over there as well as the post Soviet sphere, but or the NATO nation. | ||
| So no Warsaw Pact and no NATO for Ukraine is essentially what their starting position is. | ||
| And of course, President Trump realizing that if he can't overcome that challenge, then that's exactly the same position that we were in at the start of the war. | ||
| These are the preconditions and the root causes that the Russian side is talking about. | ||
| So the trick here is how do you get and President Trump's the only one who can take who can figure this out because this is a triple bank shot. | ||
| The triple bank shot is you've got to get the war to stop. | ||
| You've got to get some kind of recognition for the territories as a currently constituted and a security guarantee so that you can pull out. | ||
| President Trump's the only one along with his team, Secretary Besant. | ||
| They're coming in on the economic side. | ||
| The only way that they can ever get through this because any other president you just. | ||
| just have more war hang on for one second let's play swahwah i want your observations on this the thing that galled me the most yesterday of all the hatred dumped on President Trump came from this guy. | ||
| Let's play it. | ||
| Well, if you're Europe, you're quite worried now because you just saw the President of the United States achieve zero. | ||
| And they will have to ask themselves, what more are they willing to do, knowing that they too could be thrown under the bus if Russia ever moved further west. | ||
| But as far as objectives, I was hoping to hear that there would be a trilateral meeting. | ||
| That didn't come out of this. | ||
| I was hoping to hear there would be a ceasefire. | ||
| That didn't come out of this. | ||
| And I was hoping at least to hear about the territory that would be proposed or exchanged by both sides. | ||
| That didn't come out of this. | ||
| Look, Alicia, I don't know if Donald Trump is or is not a Russian asset. | ||
| I do know that at press conferences like this and like at Helsinki, he certainly acts like one. | ||
| And that is cold comfort for anyone in the United States, particularly in our military, that the commander in chief would be so flattering of and so charming to a ruthless dictator like Vladimir Putin. | ||
| Okay, Jack Pesobic, knowing now what we know about Helsinki and have Swalwell, who slept with a Chinese spy, your observation, sir? | ||
| I mean, Steve, it couldn't be further from the truth., I was at the Helsinki Summit as well in 2019 at the Presidential Palace in Finland, that coming four years. | ||
| So think about it, US-Russia relations were at a point in 2018 where there was a potential thaw, there was a potential for a framework of an agreement. | ||
| By the way, it doesn't mean friendship, it doesn't mean alliance, it means rapprochement. | ||
| So if you achieve that rapprochement, that was already well in the works. | ||
| And remember, this is a year prior, the Helsinki Summit, a year prior to the first impeachment of President Trump, which was all about what? | ||
| Ukraine. | ||
| And a phone call with who? | ||
| Vladimir Zelenskyy. | ||
| The exact same. | ||
| So all of this has been tied together and intrinsically, look Steve, what President Trump is doing by releasing the Russia Gate documents, which Swalwell played a huge role in in the dissemination and the role of that hoax as well as Adam Schiff. | ||
| The entire goal of Russia Gate wasn't just to quote unquote get Trump, it was to affect this conflict. | ||
| So the reason that President Trump and DNI Gabbard are declassifying and releasing everything now is to set the preconditions for a new rapprochement with Russiaia is vitally important, just like Nixon did it with the Chinese Communist Party in the early 70s. | ||
| The rapprochement to the reverse Nixon is to make sure that we keep the main thing, the main thing, the existential threat of the Chinese Communist Party who has infiltrated every aspect of our nation. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to get into that when we return. | ||
| We got Captain Jim Fennell. | ||
| We have the Jack Pesobic. | ||
| Carolyn Levit just put out a great tweet thanking Jack as a major influencer for going on the trip. | ||
| Good job. | ||
| Bravo, Zulu. | ||

| Thank you, Steve. | ||
| We got a clip. | ||
| We're going to keep the main thing the main thing. | ||
| Let's go and play the clip for Captain Fennell and Jack Vasovic. | ||
| Yeah, hi, John. | ||
| I will tell you this. | ||
| Anyone who lives in this part of the world, we all know that the South China Sea is a very volatile part of real estate, and what happened here certainly had the potential to be much worse. | ||
| Let's watch this video together, and you will see this Chinese warship colliding with a Chinese Coast Guard ship. | ||
| As you mentioned, they were chasing some boats from the Philippines. | ||
| The Coast Guard ship, the Chinese Coast Guard ship, was so damaged it took off part of its boat. | ||
| And as you can see there, the water is very choppy. | ||
| At the time of this whole incident, three Chinese Coast Guard members were actually on the bow of the boat when the impact happened. | ||
| I think you can see that in the video. | ||
| This video, I should point out, was all captured by the. | ||
| Okay, I want to keep playing that as B-roll. | ||
| Captain Fennell, what in the hell happened? | ||
| Is this an accident of seamanship or is this, folks, this is how aggressive the Chinese Communist Party, they think that South China Sea, which is one of the major interlinking maritime bodies in the world, they think it's an internal sea of China, and they're prepared to defend it. | ||
| Captain Fennell, why is this so important when we're trying to get peace in Ukraine, sir? | ||
| Well, Steve, just to kind of wrap up or tell you what happened there, this is on Monday, 8 o'clock in the morning in the South China Sea. | ||
| And for over an hour, Chinese Navy destroyer, 7,500 tons, a 500 foot long warship. | ||
| was chasing along with the Chinese Coast Guard vessel, that vessel right there, the White Vessel, 3104, a former Navy vessel, a Type 056 Corvette, which is about 3,500 or 1,500 tons, was chasing a Filipino Coast Guard cutter, they were trying to chase it off and away from Scarborough Shoal, which is a shoal about 140 miles northwest of Manila, well within the Filipino's exclusive economic zone. | ||
| And these two vessels chased that Philippine Coast Guard cutter and were trying to ram it for over an hour. | ||
| And then there at the last minute, because you basically have this, what I would say, this large destroyer, which is like an 18-wheeler, working with a U-haul box truck trying to attack a little small Mini Cooper, if you will, to put it in car. | ||
| you know car language that maybe people can better understand and this uh ship this destroyer ran across as it says and cut the bow off and killed maybe up to four sailors maybe more we don't know who was damaged aboard because they were going 20 to 25 knots and that corvette that cutter went from 20 to 25 knots to zero in a split second And what's really telling is that the destroyer, | ||
| once the collision occurred, did not stop to render aid and assistance to its Chinese sailors aboard that Chinese Coast Guard cutter and continued to pursue the Philippine Coast Guard cutter. | ||
| The reason this happened is because the cutter, the Filipino Coast Guard cutter, crossed within 10 and a half miles, nautical miles of the shoal. | ||
| And they had been trying to drive it away when it had been at 30 miles, and they ended up driving it into the shoal area. | ||
| And it really agitated once it crossed 12 because the Chinese illegally claim a 12 nautical mile territorial sea around this shoal, which is absurd. | ||
| It was shot down in 2016. | ||
| Why did we make... | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| Why is this, why do we make the case that the South China Sea, what you're seeing here, the Chinese trying to defend it or dominate it, why is that in the vital national security interests of the United States, sir? | ||
| A couple of reasons. | ||
| First and foremost is because we have been, since World War II, patrolling those waters and keeping this kind of activity from happening. | ||
| And when this starts to happen, wars start. | ||
| And so we've been trying to not let that happen. | ||
| That's the first reason. | ||
| Second reason is that the Philippines is actually a treaty ally unlike Ukraine. | ||
| So we have a mutual defense treaty and an article 4. | ||
| It's the same as the article 5 with the Philippines that we said that we would defend them, which they have worked with us and fought with us alongside of us in many wars. | ||
| And then thirdly, there's trillions and trillions of dollars, maybe five trillion dollars of American goods and services that go through the South China Sea in any given year. | ||
| And essentially, the reason this is happening is because in 2012, the Chinese took this shoal from the Philippines. | ||
| Under Obama's administration, Hillary Clinton was the Secretary of State and Kirk Campbell was in charge of these Pacific Affairs, East Asian Pacific Affairs. | ||
| and he failed to protect our treaty ally and the Chinese through hook and crook stole Scarborough Shoal from the Republic of the Philippines from April 2012 to June 15. | ||
| And since June 16, 2012, China has had de facto sovereignty over that shoal. | ||
| And they have allowed over the last decade at times to allow Filipino fishermen on Bonca boats to go there. | ||
| But since Marcos, the new president of the Philippines, has come in and been much more pro-America, the Chinese have really ramped up and have set up what you could call their own kind of maritime exclusion zone around the shoal at 20 to 30 miles and this the reason just hang on for a second because go ahead yep go no go ahead finish it yeah the reason this is important is because one this is how a war can start i mean this could have easily been the filipino uh cutter | ||
| that would have been swamped and sunk and we already know that president marcos has said he said it in this year if we lose the life of the sailor that'll be a declaration of war for us so that's one issue that makes us be very concerned secondly it's because the chinese intent is to be able to control the South China Sea and say who can come in and come out. | ||
| They have been for 10 years harassing American naval vessels that just steam through there. | ||
| This week on Wednesday, the USS Hogan's and the USS Cincinnati steamed by Scarborough shoal and the chinese said we violated their territorial waters that's absurd we can go anywhere in international water and we do not need the prc's permission and if they're allowed to change the international order and what we fought for for hundreds of years of naval from the Americans, | ||
| the British, and the Spanish and whatever to allow us to have freedom of navigation, then that means that we can't buy and sell and trade. | ||
| buying, selling, trade, and small nations will be crushed, and China will then advance towards America. | ||
| So, Jack Besobic, CNN is reporting now that we've deployed the Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group and the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit to attach them to Southcom. | ||
| to start to patrol the Caribbean and off Latin America for interdiction, potential interdiction, and to counter the narco-terror operations in Central America and Mexico. | ||
| Isn't that more in keeping with America first than steaming in the South China Sea, sir, as you and Captain Fenella and myself did, sir? | ||
| Well, Steve, certainly, you know, the United States military and the United States Navy has the ability to walk and chew gum. | ||
| These are different types of operations. | ||
| When you're talking about freedom of navigation operations, that's what we're looking at in terms of the shipping lanes that travel through the South China Sea. | ||
| This is all about what you could say that the Chinese are playing smash mouth Mahanianism because they're trying to push everyone out. | ||
| of the shipping lanes through the south china sea because what does that do that connects the Taiwan Strait with the Strait of Malacca and then all the way up to South Korea and Japan. | ||
| That's what this is all about. | ||
| But when it comes to the United States, aggressive, any type of interdiction operations, any type of counter narco, counter terror, counter cartel, that's what we should be looking at the Caribbean for from the Gulf of America down south. | ||
| In fact, that's why Guantanamo Bay, which I was stationed at for about a year, that was and is our oldest overseas base. | ||
| We've maintained it since the Spanish American War, as we're just talking, it also pertained to the Philippines. | ||
| And in fact, what was it used for? | ||
| It was a coaling station for patrolling the Caribbean. | ||
| for control of these areas all the way back even during the 1800s and the time of Teddy Roosevelt and the Great White Fleet. | ||
| So it was always about keeping foreign empires and in this case transnational bad actors out of our backyard. | ||
| We are the big dog in the Caribbean and we're going to keep it that way. | ||
| By the way, folks, we've talked to you about this interdiction into the cartels, the human trafficking cartels, the drug cartels, all of it. | ||
| Hey, wait, Pete Heggseth, this one of the first steps of our hemispheric defense is cleaning out the Caribbean of the Chinese Communist Party and the narco-terrorists. | ||
| Now they've got an amphibious ready group now been associated now been attached to southcom and the 22nd marine so a standby for heavy roles as we call it captain finelle you're putting stuff up on american greatness where can people get your writing sir i have pieces up on american greatness and i just had a piece published by u.s naval institute proceedings on this event and i'll just say one last thing If we had taken care of business in 2012 and defended our ally then, | ||
| we wouldn't be facing the crisis that's emerging right now in the South and East China Seas and threatening the stability of Asia and causing the Third World War. | ||
| By the way, we're going to get a link to your Naval Institute article. | ||
| Make sure you get up. | ||
| As a young officer, I was actually on the board of control of the Naval Institute back in the 1980s when I was still a naval officer. | ||
| Captain Fennell, always honored to have you on here. | ||
| Jack Bosovic, honored to have you on today. | ||
| The White House honored you by putting you on as a major influencer and voice and podcaster. | ||
| Where do people go this weekend to get all your content, sir? | ||
| Well, thanks so much, Steve. | ||
| Of course, the homepage is always going to be on X at Human Events, but then we've also got the podcast up, Human Events Daily, where we're going to be sharing some of the behind the scenes about what went on, what's it like riding on Air Force One, what are the logistics that go into it. | ||
| Obviously, certain things I can't talk about for security purposes, but we're going to try to give our listeners, our viewers, what it's like to be behind the scenes, not only of riding Air Force One, but also of these negotiations. | ||
| I was in Kiev, I was in Anchorage. | ||
| Peace is the prize. | ||
| In Helsinki. | ||
| Also, it's going to take place during Jackson. | ||
| We're going to try to get Jack on the morning show. | ||
| Thank you, brother. | ||
| Go back to the family. | ||

We rejoice when there's no more. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Banner. | ||
| Okay, I'm going to be up on Getter throughout the weekend with all types of analysis commentary putting stories up but this thing about there's 4,000 troops heading to the Caribbean the Iwo Jima Amphibious Readiness Group and the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit attached now to Southcom folks the party is on Pete Hex at the last second I went on the plane with President Trump I'm sure part of this was not just updating on Ukraine but updating on what's happening here and you got to clean out hemispheric defense starts in | ||
| the hemisphere Clean out the Caribbean of the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| First off, their Navy, the People's Liberation Navy, got to go. | ||
| All the big listening stations got to go. | ||
| You got to clean out this mess in the Bahamas, all of it. | ||
| And man, get to the narco-terrorists in Central America and Mexico. | ||
| And if they're not going to clean it up, we're going to clean it up. | ||
| That's how you start defending the United States of America. | ||
| This is in the vital national security interest of these United States. | ||
| as is the South China Sea. | ||
| More on that during the week. | ||
| Of course, Monday's going to be huge. | ||
| We'll be up all weekend and we're going to have a bunch of special guests to analyze all this on Monday morning. | ||
| For Zelensky shows up, I think, right now in the afternoon. | ||
| I want to thank Birch Gold. | ||
| As you know, economic warfare is as big a part as kinetic warfare is the guns and the troops. | ||
| You're seeing this happening in the Ukraine right now as they try to get us into these massive commitments financially. | ||
| Hello. | ||
| Not going to help that Larry Fink, the ultimate globalist, is now running the World Economic Forum. | ||
| You thought Klaus Schwab was a problem? | ||
| You ain't seen nothing yet with that guy. | ||
| Make sure you go to Birchgold, End of the Dollar Empire, Birchgold.com, promo code Bannon, seven free installments, number eight and nine coming. | ||
| We're also going to do a print edition. | ||
| Much more of that after Labor Day. | ||
| Also on a bunch of events we're going to do with Birchgold, there's so much going to happen in the fall and winter this year. | ||
| We'll walk you all into that. | ||
| Birchgold.com slash Bannon, End of the Dollar Empire. | ||
| But make contact with Philip Patrick and his team and talk to them about the benefits of owning physical gold. | ||
| So I'll be up all weekend. | ||
| This is a work weekend. | ||
| A lot going on in this audience is at the tip of it. | ||
| And folks, come Monday. | ||
| You're going to fire off the football on the redistributing because it's not just Texas. | ||
| We need a Texas 9, not a Texas 5 anymore. | ||
| Abbott, you had your shot. | ||
| You showed a total, complete fecklessness and incompetence. | ||
| Now you got to give us 9. | ||
| Okay, and we have to crush Gavin Newsom's bid for the presidency. | ||
| It starts in November when he's trying to get this resolution passed. | ||
| They can then throw away their commission and go and take, I think, 48 of 52 seats in their delegation. | ||
| Not that they would gerrymander. | ||
| He said he got to fight fire with fire. | ||
| Right now, Trevor Comps, I got a couple of minutes. | ||
| Where do people go? | ||
| You're on fire. | ||
| Every one of your products is a hit because of the kind of the discernment you have and the judgment and the care and tender care that you give them. | ||
| What do you got for, sir? | ||
| Yeah, I appreciate you, Steve. | ||
| So I'm happy to report that people are just now getting their first jars of the new talo moisturizer and have already been giving us amazing feedback through the email as well as reviews. | ||
| So I'm very pleased about that. | ||
| And just want to say thank you for all the positive messages and support. | ||
| It has been flying off the shelf still, but our team has been doing a great job of keeping up with demand, so we still don't have to list it as out of stock, which is great. | ||
| And again, for anyone that isn't aware, just a little background on it, the moisturizer is made with the two ingredients, which is the 100% American grass fed and finished beef tallo, and then the raw manuka honey. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| There's no preservatives, no synthetic ingredients, no fillers or anything like that. | ||
| And again, every jar is handmade. | ||
| And then, for people that don't know, tallo, it's really amazing because it essentially mirrors the natural oils that your skin produces. | ||
| And then it's filled with a ton of nutrients like vitamin A, D, E, and K. They're all essential for natural skin hydration. | ||
| And then, of course, as I mentioned, we pair it with the raw manuka honey, which is a natural, uh, occurring antibacterial, anti inflammatory and healing property. | ||
| Um, So that's great for doing things like helping out with eczema or reducing redness or anything like that. | ||
| And, you know, the talent is amazing too because it doesn't clog your pores. | ||
| It doesn't have a smell or anything like that. | ||
| So it goes on really nicely. | ||
| You can use it on your hands, you can use it on your face, your neck or anywhere on your body that you prefer. | ||
| And again, it's great for things like dry skin, eczema, as well as daily skin hydration. | ||
| So again, it's been selling like crazy. | ||
| I'm super happy about it and I just wanted to come on and say thank you for all the support so far. | ||
