| This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
| Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. | ||
| Here's not got a free shot. | ||
| All these networks lying about the people. | ||
| The people have had a belly full of it. | ||
| I know you're going to like hearing that. | ||
| I know you're trying 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? | ||
| 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. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bass. | |
| Okay, let me just put a pin in, by the way. | ||
| It is Saturday, 22 November at Your Ruler 2025. | ||
| Alex deGrasse is with us. | ||
| Dave Bratt's with us. | ||
| We're going to be joined by more folks shortly, but I want to get to DeGrasse. | ||
| DeGrasse, I'm going to put a pin and leave aside the Supreme Court ruling on Louisiana. | ||
| I want to go to the Republican states we haven't talked about. | ||
| Kansas, Nebraska, Indiana, Florida. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| I got one out of Kansas, one out of Nebraska, one more out of Indiana, and five more. | ||
| So I got eight if we get our job done, correct? | ||
| Now, the problem is outside of Florida, Ron DeSantis is the crew. | ||
| Kansas, Nebraska, and Indiana ain't getting done, correct? | ||
| No, that's not true. | ||
| So Indiana is two. | ||
| That's what we're pushing for. | ||
| And the Indiana House is still planning to come in for a special session in December to vote on a new map. | ||
| They're going to do their job. | ||
| That's important, Steve. | ||
| The question is, obviously, will the Indiana Senate show up and vote no? | ||
| That gets us to the 8-1 map, not the 9-0 map, correct? | ||
| Well, it's up for discussion, but we're pushing 9-0. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're pushing, obviously, 9-0. | |
| We take one, we take one. | ||
| Kansas, they're still taking it up in regular session. | ||
| The question there is whether there's enough Republicans will vote to override the governor's veto. | ||
| Nebraska does look challenging. | ||
| That's what I'll say. | ||
| And Governor DeSantis continues to publicly champion redistricting as well as his team and the House's redistricting committee. | ||
| We'll start meeting in December. | ||
| That's important. | ||
| Florida does not have to pass a new map until spring of 2026 because of the late primary. | ||
| So you could have a perfect storm with if the Supreme Court rules with us on Louisiana, Florida could, in theory, even push further. | ||
| So that's obviously huge. | ||
| And so pen is on the table, but it's tough. | ||
| You know, it's looking more like eight, but we'll have to see. | ||
| Anything last week? | ||
| Obviously. | ||
| Hang on, so I got eight. | ||
| Well, I think Nebraska is out, so seven. | ||
| So when I add them up, it's 12, 14, it's 16 gross number, 16 to 18 gross. | ||
| And I got five already in California unless we stop it. | ||
| That gets you over the 11. | ||
| If Virginia doesn't happen in Maryland, my point is we're right on the bubble of the 10. | ||
| You agree with me, we need a net 10 minimum out of this, sir? | ||
| Yeah, for sure. | ||
| For sure. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, isn't the problem here the Republican establishment is not working on this at all? | ||
| They would rather, quite frankly, they want the storm of Trump to pass. | ||
| And they see one way to have it pass is to lose the House. | ||
| There's worse things that happen to the Republican Party than losing the House. | ||
| They lose it all the time. | ||
| In fact, before Trump got here, it looks like they were going to permanently lose it. | ||
| And then you get Trump impeached and he killed the whole Trump movement. | ||
| And then they reset in 28. | ||
| So what does this audience have to do to make sure that we're on point? | ||
| Because we need more, net 10 is the minimum. | ||
| It looks like possible you could get net 14 or 15 if it doesn't go our way in California. | ||
| So how do we do that? | ||
| We need to maniacally focus on the state legislators, Steve, and people, especially in Indiana. | ||
| I mean, that's a huge focal point. | ||
| And you've got guys out there saying crazy things in the state senate. | ||
| It's totally unacceptable to have Republicans that sort of operate like that, right? | ||
| This is not a happy talk, whatever, right? | ||
| They are jamming us on every front and have been for decades. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And you look at New England. | ||
| You look at, obviously, New York and California. | ||
| We talked about it on the show. | ||
| The California map, as it was previously drawn with those stupid citizens, you know, by quote-unquote bipartisan appropriation, whatever thing, was even more gerrymandered two years ago than the updated Texas map. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| I mean, let's just be honest here. | ||
| And now you're looking at the most gerrymandered map in the history of the country, okay, with the current California map that people just voted on. | ||
| So they're not playing games. | ||
| It has nothing to do about what we or anyone else try to do in Texas or anything else. | ||
| These guys have been pushing the envelope for decades. | ||
| And obviously they will stop at nothing to stop President Trump. | ||
| And of course, I think there's some people with an interest in Steve and Magazine. | ||
| Alex, the people in California are saying, people around Newsome, they're saying the only mistake they made was not going 52-0 to be like New England. | ||
| They want to take a maximalist. | ||
| They said, hey, we don't care 46% or 44% of people in the state vote Republican. | ||
| It's just smash mouth. | ||
| They won by 30 points. | ||
| They feel they left some on the table. | ||
| They think 48 to 4 is not good enough. | ||
| And they're thinking they should have gone 52-0. | ||
| They don't care. | ||
| This is what I'm saying. | ||
| In Texas, it shouldn't be 5. | ||
| We should go back and refile for 8. | ||
| We're not being aggressive enough. | ||
| And the Republican establishment is just fighting the grassroots on this. | ||
| And quite frankly, President Trump has already sent his political director Blair out there. | ||
| He sent the vice president out there. | ||
| He's talked about it ad nauseum. | ||
| You went out there. | ||
| Senator Banks is on the back of this. | ||
| Senator Banks is out there. | ||
| You guys had this conference, which was all day on our Saturday. | ||
| It had 500 people. | ||
| And these are the tip of the spear of the grassroots movement. | ||
| And the establishment, the Pence, the Judas Pence, and other establishment figures don't care, do they? | ||
| No. | ||
| I mean, Indiana is really a focal point in general, just with the inner fight with MAGA, with Pence, with just all these guys that are disaster, Steve. | ||
| I mean, really, for me, it was eye-opening because, look, I'm from New York. | ||
| We're fighting for every inch. | ||
| You know, that's where I've cut my teeth in MAGA land, but we're out there push, push, push. | ||
| I get to Indiana and there's some, I mean, I've never seen more hardcores. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| The people at the event, the grassroots people, unbelievable, Steve. | ||
| I mean, it was truly amazing. | ||
| And I meet some of these elected officials, many of them for redistricting, some of them not. | ||
| I mean, talking to these people who are pushing, it's like just, oh, well, you know, things are pretty good here. | ||
| I mean, it's crazy mindset. | ||
| It has to be defeated. | ||
| It has to be stopped. | ||
| These people need education. | ||
| You know, we've got to get communicating with them directly and being like, hey, man, wake up, look around. | ||
| This is not about Indiana. | ||
| This is not about whatever's going on in the state. | ||
| This is about representation on the national scale and pushing back against the far-left socialist takeover of our country, which is what's at stake in the next midterm, obviously. | ||
| And so these people just, I don't know. | ||
| You know, I don't understand the thinking, obviously, because it's so dangerous within our own. | ||
| But they're going to have to be pressured into this. | ||
| This is going to be about political muscle. | ||
| First off, to get the establishment and then to fight off the Democrats because we're in a dogfight now. | ||
| And like I said, it's net 10 minimum or we're going to have a very tough November. | ||
| Alex, where do people go? | ||
| Thank you for coming on today, even by phone. | ||
| Where do people go to get you to get more analysis on this, sir? | ||
| Yeah, I'm going to type out a report and I'll give it to Grace and everyone. | ||
| But I'm at the grass 81 on X, Truth Getter, all of that. | ||
| I appreciate everyone. | ||
| I mean, it's really Indiana, let's lock in. | ||
| Obviously, Florida, I think we don't have to worry about, but that's a key one. | ||
| You break the log jam, I think things will start moving. | ||
| So we've got to just keep the momentum. | ||
| But it is going to take 100% political muscle. | ||
| And if these people don't listen, Steve, they deserve to be defeated at the ballot box. | ||
| And this fight is going to take not just this. | ||
| Yeah, not just this midterm. | ||
| This is going to be a long fight. | ||
| So we've got to dig in. | ||
| Last thing. | ||
| This is separate from the Supreme Court coming in on the gerrymander and DEI gerrymandering. | ||
| That's going to come. | ||
| And I think some of the states are particularly Louisiana. | ||
| But we may pick up a couple more seats there. | ||
| But that's a total sidebar that'll be decided by the courts. | ||
| Yeah, as early as January, we'll have that update. | ||
| And that will hopefully play a fact. | ||
| This election, obviously, Louisiana moved back to a primary in preparation for a ruling. | ||
| In theory, it could affect how many seats are drawn in Florida. | ||
| But because I laid out the Democrat ones, which I know is confusing, a lot of that are the next fight. | ||
| And so while we are maniacally focused on this election, we've got another election, obviously, two years after when the presidential is up as well. | ||
| And things are going to be super tense. | ||
| So everything is laying out. | ||
| Two-year, four-year plan to keep pushing. | ||
| Brother, thank you so much, Alex deGros. | ||
| Appreciate you on a Saturday. | ||
| Thank you, Steve. | ||
| Dave, Brett, I know you're chomping at the bit. | ||
| I'm going to turn the microphone back over to you, brother. | ||
| What do you got for me? | ||
| Yeah, well, I just want to go back. | ||
| I'm supposed to be the moral philosopher and the Puritan on this show. | ||
| And every issue you bring up and every rant you go on, all of it centers around a rejection of the Christian tradition, right? | ||
| America, there was no debate. | ||
| America First always has been Christian in the broadest sense of that term. | ||
| And as we lose Christianity, right? | ||
| All the cultural commentators know this, right? | ||
| Even the leftists, Harzoni, the biblical scholar, Israel knows this, says this. | ||
| We live in a Christian culture. | ||
| And if you just look at the threat from Mandani, Islam, the radical Islamists, the Marxists, the leftists, the socialist communists, all of these, China, the border invasion, all of it is an attack on Christianity. | ||
| Look at our higher education schools, right? | ||
| The philosophy part, we can't duck it. | ||
| And the education, it's not sexy, but you can't duck it. | ||
| And the churches, this is your action item. | ||
| Dear churches, wake up. | ||
| Protestants, Catholics, Orthodox, the kids, if you don't have the Bible in school or if you're not teaching the Bible, you're not going to have a Christian culture. | ||
| And if you don't have a Christian culture, you're not going to have America First and the United States of America for that much longer. | ||
| And so just in real briefly, the long trajectory of this was reason came on the stage in Europe, right? | ||
| The Enlightenment, kind of an attack on Revelation and the Bible, et cetera. | ||
| And that ruled. | ||
| Think of Woodrow Wilson, the elitists, the Ivy Leagues. | ||
| Reason, a lot of it, very good related to our founding, but reason and the Enlightenment and Harzoni will say this, the Enlightenment thinkers were anti-Semitic. | ||
| They don't want particulars. | ||
| They wanted a universal globalist rule of law. | ||
| Just think of the Bretton Woods global liberal order, right? | ||
| They don't want nation-states like the United States, Israel, particulars of any sort. | ||
| So the nation-state is a threat. | ||
| So they've done all they can to get rid of the nation-state. | ||
| And getting rid of Christianity is the way you do that. | ||
| When the Enlightenment, you know, there was obviously had a big influence in the American Revolution. | ||
| But wasn't it kind of the lead sled dog in the French Revolution? | ||
| And that's why the French Revolution at core was to destroy Christianity, to destroy the underpinnings, not just of the church, but to drive Christianity out of the culture. | ||
| That's why they redid everything from the calendar to customs and mores, everything. | ||
| You see it manifested in the French Revolution, which remember, folks, came right at the end of the American Revolution, basically, because the thing that triggered it was, guess what? | ||
| Debt and taxes. | ||
| The money they had put up for the American Revolution came back to haunt them, and they're really defeating England or trying to defeat England, destroy its empire. | ||
| But reason underpins so much of that, and you saw it in all its brutality in the streets of Paris in the French Revolution. | ||
| Did you not, sir? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, no, and that's right. | ||
| They're both good guardrails. | ||
| Reason with Christianity, right? | ||
| Harvard's motto in 1640 with John Harvard, who came from Cambridge. | ||
| Another fine Christian school back in the day was truth for Christ and church. | ||
| It's not anymore. | ||
| And now the scary thing is reason is gone. | ||
| And I know people won't understand that statement, but reason no longer guides the Ivy League schools. | ||
| It's radical leftist Marxism, which is contrary and at war against Christianity. | ||
| And the Christians don't get this yet. | ||
| And if we don't change the culture, you lose the rep. Without the culture, you don't get all the things that the war rooms ticked off at, right? | ||
| The border invasion, the Islamification, the loss of freedoms, the censorship, the globalists, the inflation, all of it's coming from a bad place. | ||
| Well, we're making progress. | ||
| It's now time to drop the hammer and get the wins. | ||
| It's time to fight, right? | ||
| Hang on, Brett. | ||
| You're with me. | ||
| And by the way, we're going to have Jessica. | ||
| I think Jessica Vaughan's going to join us from CIS with that amazing report you're talking about on H-1B visas on Monday as we're working it out now. | ||
| If you're lucky enough to own a home, and remember, if you're under 35 years old, pretty tough. | ||
| Average age of a homeowner now is 40, not first time, but the first time, I think, is over 30. | ||
| It used to be in the low 20s. | ||
| Every dream you've ever had is tied up in that home. | ||
| The document that shows you own it is your title. | ||
| Home Title Occups that to make sure that no AI, cyber, and the sophistication of that gets into it. | ||
| Make sure that rogue lawyers, rogue accountants, rogue relatives get into it and monetize it. | ||
| Not just potentially sell your house, but as badly go to a hard money lender and take out a second, let's say $100,000. | ||
| You got to pay it off the interest and they get the cash. | ||
| Is that a nightmare? | ||
| Would that ruin your day? | ||
| Would that cause you angst and anxiety? | ||
| Also, opportunity costs. | ||
| You wouldn't be watching the war room. | ||
| You wouldn't be going to the ramparts. | ||
| You'd be worried about this and trying to sort it out. | ||

| Okay, by the way, so Taj Gil, I got Taj up. | ||
| We're going to talk to Ukraine afterwards in a moment. | ||
| Taj, I know you can't give you exact location, but that's a hell of a visual. | ||
| Where are you today, brother? | ||
| I'm in Idaho, in southwest Idaho. | ||
| My buddy's got a hunting lodge out here. | ||
| It's 29,000 acres. | ||
| So came out here this morning just shooting a little trap and ski. | ||
| And then we're going to take my daughter out and see if we can put her on an elk and see if she can kill an elk this morning. | ||
| You mean the head of security, the one we keep playing the video on, the head of security for Warpath Coffee? | ||
| Yep, that's right, Hunter. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| It'll be your first time shooting an animal. | ||
| So we're going to, as soon as we're done, we're going to head out and get on the planes and see if we can find a cow elk for her to shoot. | ||
| Who's your buddy right there? | ||
| Is that another undisclosed pipe? | ||
| Pipe hitter. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He's like the ultimate hunting guide here in southern Idaho. | ||
| He knows where all the animals are. | ||
| He knows all the ranchers, all the farmers. | ||
| Pretty amazing. | ||
| Talk to me about it. | ||
| Did you start your day off, we did here with a big pot of Warpath coffee? | ||
| Of course, of course. | ||
| Yeah, we woke up around 5 a.m. and French pressed a bunch of Warpath coffee, put it in a Stanley mug, and drove out to the ranch out here to the lodge. | ||
| And we're all drinking Warpath coffee. | ||
| They got Warpath here at the lodge, too. | ||
| Amazing. | ||
| How do our audience, how's the audience? | ||
| I wanted to read the 15,000 or to dip into the 15,000 five-star reviews. | ||
| Where do folks go? | ||
| Go to warpath.coffee, use promo code warroom as always. | ||
| So promo code war room. | ||
| We run that year-round for the war room posse. | ||
| And I think this weekend we're doing 15% off and it always fluctuates. | ||
| So always use promo code Warroom and then go to the site, read the reviews. | ||
| We just roasted decaf yesterday. | ||
| We roasted a bunch of whole bean and crown decaf because I don't know why, but decaf is so popular. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| It sells out so quick. | ||
| But read the reviews. | ||
| Like you said, Steve, like you said, we've got 15,000 five-star reviews and people absolutely love the coffee. | ||
| We roast it on a perforated drum. | ||
| So it's not bitter. | ||
| It's not acidic. | ||
| You can drink it straight black the way coffee is supposed to be drank. | ||
| You don't need to douse it with milk and sugar. | ||
| So drink the coffee healthy, straight black. | ||
| And we have every coffee for everybody. | ||
| We've got breakfast blend, dark roast. | ||
| We've got the summer blend, which is Jamaica Blue Mountain beans, a little bit of that in there. | ||
| And then we've got a bunch of flavored coffee. | ||
| We've got espresso. | ||
| We've got the pods. | ||
| The next thing we're going to drop is the decaf K-cups. | ||
| So we'll have 42-count decaf K-cups here pretty soon. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| I'm stunned the decaf sells like that. | ||
| I like getting jacked out to your car. | ||
| And the Warpath jacks me up. | ||
| That's why I can't drink it after like three or four in the afternoon. | ||
| Maybe I should try the decaf. | ||
| Taj, one more time. | ||
| Where do folks go? | ||
| I know you want to get out today and get Hunter out there looking for her first elk. | ||
| Where do people go one more time? | ||
| You go to warpath.coffee, use promo code warroom. | ||
| And like I said, we run the war room code year-round for the war room posse, the war room posse, our biggest customer base. | ||
| So we love the posse. | ||
| So we're always running promos for the posse. | ||
| Warpath.coffee, promo code Warroom. | ||
| If you haven't tried it, try it. | ||
| Just get on the site and read the reviews. | ||
| Thank you, brother. | ||
| Have a great day today. | ||
| Thank you, Steve. | ||
| Say hi to all you brothers out there. | ||
| Appreciate you too, man. | ||
| Pipe hitters. | ||
| Steve Cortez was kind enough to remind me during the break, yo, Bannon, you blew the number. | ||
| Cortez is our numbers guy. | ||
| Steve, and this is shocking. | ||
| I thought it was the new, just buyers overall were 40. | ||
| You remind me of the Bloomberg story. | ||
| The first time buyer has now hit 40 years old. | ||
| That is stunning. | ||
| It used to be in the low 20s, sir. | ||
| Yeah, that's correct. | ||
| And listen, it's rare when I get to correct the great Stephen K. Bannon, but in this case, I think it's really important. | ||
| I've just been studying this issue so closely that I know it and have read about it a lot. | ||
| The average first-time age, first time, is now 40 years old. | ||
| 40 years used to be considered getting into middle age, right? | ||
| Your life was already quite matured by then regarding home ownership, family formation, all of that. | ||
| And we're seeing the reverse. | ||
| Now, by the way, that number, to put it in context, in only 2021, when Biden took office, that number was 31 years old. | ||
| So we have gone up a decade in only four years. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because credit standards are incredibly strict, incredibly tight. | ||
| Many of these buyers are all cash or at least largely cash buyers. | ||
| And that's one reason why I believe that this current run-up in housing prices, there's a lot of folks who try to compare this to what happened during the great financial crisis or preceding it. | ||
| I think it's entirely different. | ||
| This is the opposite of no-doc mortgages and those liar loans. | ||
| These are tight credit standards. | ||
| These are people making, I think, an intelligent decision, people with a lot of money to say, in an inflationary environment, we want our money in homes, but it's horrible for young people. | ||
| And to also connect this to my polling, I just did a huge poll. | ||
| Over 2,000 Gen Z voters, 18 to 25-year-old voters across America. | ||
| And I asked specifically about their aspirations on housing because I've noticed a lot of people my age, a lot of middle-aged people, will tell me, Hey, Cortez, don't worry about young people buying homes. | ||
| They don't want to. | ||
| They're a different generation. | ||
| Well, maybe that's true for some of the millennials, the folks in their 30s. | ||
| But this Gen Z, which is much more right-wing, much more like Gen X, with Gen Z, 18 to 25, we asked them, is it important to you to buy a home in your 20s or 30s? | ||
| 88% of them said it's very important. | ||
| Steve, you know, in polling, we never get anything near 90%. | ||
| You can't get 90% of people to agree that next Thursday is Thanksgiving. | ||
| But nine out of 10, 18 to 25-year-olds say it's very important to them to buy a home in their 20s and 30s. | ||
| We know statistically right now, that's incredibly unlikely. | ||
| They're not going to be able to do that. | ||
| That goal that they claim is important. | ||
| So it's something we clearly have to work on as a country, as a society, policy, all of it. | ||
| That's a sad number. | ||
| Let's get that number ticking back down, which means that the silo of prosperity is going back up. | ||
| This is why Charlie Kirk, you know, Andrew Colvette put up, Charlie Kirk came out on August 19th. | ||
| Charlie Kirk put his punch list of what he felt an active economic plan for younger people. | ||
| I think the and it was six, I think it was six items. | ||
| The fourth or fifth item was build 10 million new homes. | ||
| He understood, Charlie understood better than anybody that young people want to have a stake in the system. | ||
| You know, they want some real assets, real assets, 90% of the people's net worth. | ||
| I say this all the time on the home title act: 80 or 90% of your net worth is tied up in your home. | ||
| Heck, I think my parents at the end of the day was 80, 85, 90%. | ||
| It's just even with their stocks, the home was the key. | ||
| That was their savings account. | ||
| I want to get to Ukraine. | ||
| You got a great, let's do a short video. | ||
| I got Dave Bratt, you got the great Ben Harnwell from Rome. | ||
| Cortez, myself, we're going to walk through this whole thing. | ||
| They're trying to get a peace treaty, and Zelensky's coming on glues. | ||
| Let's go ahead and play the clip. | ||
| Peace appears imminent for Ukraine, thanks to President Trump. | ||
| And elections there couldn't come at a better time because Zelensky is caught up in a growing, intense corruption scandal that reaches right to his top inner circle and presidential office. | ||
| His pals, they stole at least $100 million from their Department of Energy, even with their nation at war. | ||
| And regular Ukrainians suffering and dying. | ||
| Now, one of the worst aspects of this Operation Midas, this grand theft Kiev, is that the lead detective Roselov, he sits in jail right now in Ukraine, nabbed by Zelensky's forces on bogus charges that he's somehow working for Russia. | ||
| So at this very moment, the two main scumbag thiefs who fleeced their nation, Zelensky's BFS, Mindich, and his financier known as Sugar Man, they fled and they live in luxury, ensconced in Israel, while the brave cop who uncovered their crimes sits in a Ukrainian jail cell. | ||
| So Detective Rusilov must be freed and Zelensky, he needs to face his own jury, meaning the Ukrainian people, in a swift and transparent election. | ||
| They will then decide if it's time for corruption-free leadership in Ukraine. | ||
| See my article posted inside Ukraine. | ||
| Okay, I'm going to push that out, everybody. | ||
| Ben Harnwell, is Cortez overstating the case? | ||
| Is finally the corruption we've been talking about since, I don't know, three years, three plus years, is it finally catching up with Zelensky at the worst possible time now that President Trump and his team are putting pressure on them to basically sign this document by Thanksgiving Day, sir? | ||
| Well, the timing from Zelensky's perspective is less than optimal. | ||
| But as I said last Saturday on the show, Steve, at this point in the game, the switcheroo, the great switcheroo of Zelensky for someone who's far more credible like his former Chief of Staff, General Zeluzhny, who's exiled to London as the ambassador. | ||
| That would be catastrophic for anyone who wants to see the West, specifically America, disengage from Ukraine. | ||
| Because what you're going to be doing is simply pulling someone out of the picture who's loathed and hated by half of the American people and substituting them for someone who's going to be far more credible at getting the cash in. | ||
| And in fact, Steve, if you look at the 28-point plan that President Trump is working on, one of those points is indeed what we warned three and a half years ago, the mother of all grifts, that is, the reconstruction of Ukraine. | ||
| So the last thing I want to see at this point in the game is Zelensky removed from power. | ||
| Because your theory of the case is the war goes on like in Netanyahu. | ||
| If Zelensky stays there, the war goes on and you won't get to a peace deal. | ||
| And the peace deal here, at least what they're putting out, has both sovereignty and reconstruction in it. | ||
| Look, in 20 seconds, my theory of the case is Zelensky is so discredited and so loathed by the American people. | ||
| Keeping him in place is the easiest way for President Trump, should he want to, to fully disengage the United States from everything to do with Ukraine. | ||
| Okay, we're going to take a break on that and come back because this one is, and President Trump remembers, he was handed the kinetic part of the Third World War. | ||
| And then on top of it, got the economic part when the Chinese Communist Party came at us and cut us off from where Earth is trying to unwind this entire thing. | ||
| Although there are a few buried leads in the details, we're going to get into all of that next in the war room. | ||

| So a couple, when they talk about this, and I think the VP put out a tweet today saying any deal has to essentially guarantee Ukrainian sovereignty. | ||
| I don't know how we got in this situation. | ||
| This is America first. | ||
| We're going to guarantee or be a co-guarantor with NATO countries on the sovereignty of Ukraine. | ||
| So if the Russians years from now decide to move on Edessa, that's an American problem. | ||
| To quote Steve Cortez, the Russian-speaking eastern border of Ukraine is not in the vital national security interest of the United States. | ||
| The southern border is, and we've done a magnificent job of closing that, but we still have 15 million, even with either 1.6 or 2.2 that have left under President Trump's first 10 months, we still have, I don't know, 15 million plus illegal alien invaders just from Biden's watch. | ||
| So Cortez, let me start with you and then go to Ben. | ||
| The issues here are, at least, as I see this thing, we're stepping into the middle of it and actually becoming the Mac daddy. | ||
| You know, Nigel Farage already criticizes about the timing of it. | ||
| I love Nigel. | ||
| There's no guy in the world I love more. | ||
| But yo, Nigel, your country's broke. | ||
| You got Islamic, the rise of Islamism all over the United Kingdom. | ||
| You're dead broke. | ||
| You got to take care of your, if you've got money to throw into Ukraine, go for it. | ||
| If you've got troops to put in Ukraine, go for it. | ||
| But guaranteeing their sovereignty, a security guarantee the United States is going to be the Mac daddy on, and we're going to lead or be co-partners with Europe on a construction. | ||
| That means we're involved in Ukraine for the next 25, 30, 40, or 50 years. | ||
| Cortez, you first. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Well, look, far from ideal, obviously, right? | ||
| But a few points there. | ||
| First on the Europeans, you know, they're complaining and carping about this. | ||
| Your right is ludicrous. | ||
| We're meeting with the Europeans tomorrow in Geneva, which is the epicenter of Globalism Inc. | ||
| They can complain all they want, but unless they're willing to pony up, unless they have the cash and weapons, which they don't, then frankly, who cares what they think about this situation? | ||
| They really have no stake in it. | ||
| But if Paris and Geneva and Brussels and London somehow think, hey, Was Zelensky, we can form this coalition and keep fighting to the last Ukrainian, have at it, guys, because we're sick of it. | ||
| We're not going to engage anymore in this protectorate nonsense overseas. | ||
| But regarding the specifics now, realize that President Trump was handed an impossible predicament by Joe Biden, right? | ||
| And by what the globalists have done in Ukraine for a long time, since 2014, but particularly since the Russian invasion. | ||
| So very difficult quagmire to work your way out of. | ||
| And there aren't great options when you put yourself in the right corner. | ||
| I believe, though, that President Trump is choosing the best option here through negotiation and diplomacy. | ||
| I think this 28-point plan will not work. | ||
| Yo, Come on, man. | ||
| You're saying work out of a quagmire. | ||
| 100% agree that he was dealt terrible. | ||
| The war would not have been, had never been started. | ||
| President Trump's president. | ||
| Full stop. | ||
| Understand that. | ||
| But you're talking about working your way out of a quagmire. | ||
| Let me repeat. | ||
| I'm just quoting the vice president's tweet. | ||
| Any deal has to guarantee the sovereignty of Ukraine? | ||
| We ain't guaranteeing the sovereignty of the United States of America yet. | ||
| Guaranteeing the sovereignty. | ||
| Number two, we're going to give a security guarantee. | ||
| And number three, we're going to be co-partners in the construction. | ||
| Please tell me how that's not working your way into the quagmire, Steve Cortez. | ||
| Okay, regarding the security guarantee, Steve, realize the United States never has to take any military action that we do not want to take, right? | ||
| So we can always analyze at the time, is it appropriate for the United States to act? | ||
| And what we say in November of 2025 does not mean that we have to act in November of 2026 or 2030 going forward. | ||
| So let's just be realistic about that, right? | ||
| A negotiation tactic. | ||
| Yeah, but we just signed an EO for Qatar. | ||
| We just, I think, signed one or told the Saudis they got Article 5. | ||
| There's an implied right now. | ||
| There's an implied. | ||
| I'm going to say we've got an implied in Israel. | ||
| Here, the United States is not, we're not in the business of giving security guarantees like we've given in NATO that we're thinking. | ||
| And then saying, upon further review, when the Russians start rolling the Odessa, upon further review, because you're going to have true, a security guarantee doesn't mean you're just going to put it on paper. | ||
| Security guarantee means you're going to have something called an American soldier somewhere near there. | ||
| Right now, they're in Wiesbaden running the war. | ||
| You're going to move them to the front line. | ||
| Hang on for a second. | ||
| So let me grade Cortez on the White House. | ||
| That's a C-minus. | ||
| Good temp. | ||
| You tried. | ||
| Ben Harnwell, let's go to Rome. | ||
| Your thoughts, sir. | ||
| Steve, my cynical BD eyes listened to the whole of Steve Cortez trying to put the best, trying to put the lipstick on the book. | ||
| He tried. | ||
| My reptilian, he tried. | ||
| He gave it the best sell he could. | ||
| My cynical reptilian eyes watched it and they didn't blink for the whole sequence. | ||
| Steve, look, let's be honest. | ||
| This 28 plan, it's a turd sandwich. | ||
| We've got to call it what it is. | ||
| It's a turd sandwich which is being presented as gourmet tornado Rossini. | ||
| It ain't. | ||
| It's terrible. | ||
| By the way, by the way, one of the conditions in this 28 plan, and I'm just going to say that, is that this agreement will be legally binding. | ||
| I'd like to know before which entity is going to now sit above the sovereignty of the United States when that comes to play. | ||
| Steve, what you were just saying, Steve Bannon, what you were just saying here about the security guarantees is 1,000% spot on. | ||
| Let me just say, referring to the plan, what it says, it says Ukraine receives security guarantees from the U.S., but with conditions. | ||
| Ukraine, and then he goes on, okay? | ||
| Look, that is more dangerous to the United States than NATO's Article 5 assurances. | ||
| I've said this like 20 times on the show of the last four years. | ||
| I'll say it again. | ||
| All America, any NATO member needs to do if another NATO member is attacked is send a fax and say we're studying the, we are monitoring the situation and we believe our monitoring of that situation fulfills our obligations, right? | ||
| Security guarantees are far more binding on who's signing on the other side. | ||
| Look at the First World War. | ||
| You are setting yourselves up here for a position which you are never going to escape from. | ||
| And by the way, Steve, by the way, Steve's, it is even worse than that. | ||
| Denver, would you kindly put up my first article, which I sent through, the quote from Axios? | ||
| I'm going to hand back to you guys on this point. | ||
| This is one of the most dangerous things I have ever read in my life, right? | ||
| Because it is not simply security guarantees for Ukraine, according to what we know of this 28-point plan, which isn't the fullness of it. | ||
| It's security guarantees for Ukraine and Europe. | ||
| That's the biggest, one of the biggest buried leads I've ever read in my life. | ||
| And that's what Axios says. | ||
| Security guarantees for Ukraine and Europe. | ||
| Good luck. | ||
| Good luck with that, folks. | ||
| This is anywhere but America first. | ||
| More than an Article 5 right now of an attack on Russia. | ||
| You think this is even deeper than that, Ben? | ||
| Of course it is. | ||
| Of course it is. | ||
| Because Article 5 is simply a legal mechanism for you to start warring with another nation that hasn't directly attacked you without you suffering any obligations under international law. | ||
| Security guarantees bind you into doing something. | ||
| Ben, you're actually making my point, though, that there is no authority that can force the United States to act. | ||
| I mean, you're making my point, right? | ||
| Neither President Trump nor any American president, just because of a pledge that was made in November of 2025, needs to take any action that is not directly in the interest of the United States. | ||
| We always have full sovereignty over how we use our forces. | ||
| That's just reality, right? | ||
| Going forward. | ||
| Steve Cortez, at Steve Cortez, I will respond saying, let me know. | ||
| When it says one of the 28 points is the agreement is legally binding. | ||
| Let me know before whom, before which court this agreement is going to be binding. | ||
| Oh, exactly. | ||
| And it's going to be that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's not. | |
| I didn't. | ||
| It's not my pain. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| A little historical context here, gentlemen. | ||
| I'll attempt to thread the needle. | ||
| We've lied to Russia on the prior 18 countries that have encroached upon Russia's border. | ||
| This is the 19th, right? | ||
| So for me, the key is what is Trump. | ||
| We're already, right? | ||
| We're only giving away a little bit of buffer zone to Russia. | ||
| We're the aggressors in this occasion, right, over the past couple of years. | ||
| We've been the aggressors, following John Mearsheimer and all the smartest guys in real politique. | ||
| And so it all comes down to, does Trump have a forward-looking arrangement with Russia and Putin? | ||
| That's what it all comes down to. | ||
| And the security arrangements or whatever, we're not too good at keeping our word on those kind of things. | ||
| Hang on, hang on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hang on. | |
| What do you mean forward-looking with Putin? | ||
| Even some side deal or whatever. | ||
| At the time they want to take Odessa, if they're going to take Odessa, we're going to send the 82nd Airborne in with a bunch of hapless NATO troops. | ||
| We're going to send them in with the hapless NATO, because we know NATO is totally understaffed. | ||
| They're not really paying for the military. | ||
| They talk about 5%. | ||
| They're aiming at 2% because they've got health care in there and climate change and all that. | ||
| So we're going to send the 101st. | ||
| They've got 101st. | ||
| They've got a brigade of the 101st in remaining right now. | ||
| They're going to forward deployed to Odessa to stop the Russian army from coming to Odessa. | ||
| Has anybody looked at what Ukraine looks like? | ||
| Folks, remember here, President Trump has moved heaven and earth to bring peace here. | ||
| There would never happen if he was president. | ||
| It happened under Biden and all the globalists and the people in Brussels. | ||
| Brussels, 30% Muslim. | ||
| England, what, 7%, I think 5% or 6% Muslim. | ||
| In London, you can't even walk around. | ||
| Paris, the Fifth Republic's falling right now because they're broke. | ||
| Macron's got no money. | ||
| It's that group in Germany, a total disaster because they allowed mass migration from these Islamic countries. | ||
| We're supposed to go in now. | ||
| President Trump has moved heaven and earth. | ||
| You know what they've done? | ||
| They came to the Oval Office and lied to him, and he called their bluff. | ||
| When they came there, what, eight weeks ago, remember that whole day, they all came all day and they're going to talk, they're going to give this, and they got arms here, and they got men here. | ||
| They came up with nothing. | ||
| And so now is not the time for the United States, I don't think, until this is the Europeans' war. | ||
| Boris Johnson and those demons over there are the ones that they had some sort of accommodation worked out in the first couple of days of this, and Boris Johnson trying to be Winston Churchill, talked him out of it. | ||
| And, you know, Macron's a big, he's Napoleon Jr., and they're all big shots until it comes time to actually deliver. | ||
| And then they want American security guarantees. | ||
| They want American co-partnerships on construction. | ||
| And they want to guarantee Ukrainian sovereignty. | ||
| I don't give a damn about Ukrainian sovereignty. | ||
| I don't think anybody in this country cares about Ukrainian sovereignty. | ||
| I'm not so sure all the Ukrainians care about sovereignty. | ||
| What they want is the fight to stop right now. | ||
| So I would like the sovereignty. | ||
| Here's what I'd like to do. | ||
| Instead of putting the 101st in Romania to get ready for the invasion of Odessa that we have to go defend, why don't we get the 101st, turn them over to Tom Holman and Stephen Miller, and on Monday we show up in New York City and we take out all the illegal alien invaders and particularly the ones that voted for Mendami, the Ugandan Marxist jihadists, and we send them back to their point of origin. | ||
| That talks about the sovereignty of the United States. | ||
| President Trump's moved heaven and earth, and he's been a diplomat. | ||
| He's been a statesman. | ||
| It's now time to tell the British, the French, and the Germans, show me what you got. | ||
| Where's your money? | ||
| Where's your troops? | ||
| Where's your guarantee? | ||
| Hell, they don't even have sovereignty of their own countries. | ||
| They've turned the sovereignty over to radical Islam. | ||
| Short break. | ||
| Get the same group on the other side. | ||

| Oh, we lost Brad. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Ben Harnwell, give us your coordinates. | ||
| Give us your coordinates so people can get your BD-I'd analysis over the weekend, sir. | ||
| I can't hear anything. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay, no, go to Cortez. | |
| Steve Cortez, we're having a little technical problem here. | ||
| Do you have us? | ||
| I've got you. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yes, I've got you. | ||
| Okay, fine. | ||
| Then you're going to take the whole segment. | ||
| It's all yours. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Listen, Zelensky is a corrupt tyrant. | ||
| He's in an incredibly weak position domestically, the weakest he's been in in his entire tenure. | ||
| This is exactly the time for President Trump to press him and to effectively compel him to accept the terms, the American negotiated terms, to end this war. | ||
| Then they need to hold an election, and we are going to crush Zelensky in an election and get a real leader in Ukraine. | ||
| That's in America's interest. | ||
| Steve, you and I, since the earliest days of this Black Sea War, which was never in our vital national interest, have been constantly saying that this is not America's problem. | ||
| Unfortunately, the Washington globalists made it our problem. | ||
| Now Donald Trump is going to get us out of it. | ||
| And thankfully, Zelensky, the corruption is making our data. | ||
| But hang on. | ||
| But are you saying that Zelensky will sign this and that we should do all the commitments? | ||
| Because President Trump, I think, and Witkoff have given him one week, make a decision. | ||
| And Zelensky's out there whining nonstop. | ||
| Are you saying sign the deal and then have the election and get rid of Zelensky? | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| 100%. | ||
| And I believe that's what's going to happen. | ||
| I think that's by far the most probable scenario right now. | ||
| For all the Western Europe. | ||
| And you're comfortable with the guaranteeing of Ukrainian sovereignty? | ||
| Because aren't we doing that in this deal? | ||
| No, I'm not comfortable with it. | ||
| But if that is right now the current posture of American policy that's going to get to an end to this war, then I think it makes sense for now. | ||
| Why do we care? | ||
| I'm totally cornfused. | ||
| Why do we care? | ||
| I don't care if they slug it out. | ||
| That's their decision. | ||
| You would trade off. | ||
| You would actually say, I would give it. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| You would guarantee their sovereignty if it, quote unquote, ended this war, basically got a ceasefire. | ||
| You would do that? | ||
| Look, that's what President Trump has proposed. | ||
| I think it makes sense given the predicament we're in, right? | ||
| Far from my guarantee. | ||
| What's the prediction? | ||
| Given the prediction. | ||
| Hang on, but hang on. | ||
| What's the predicament? | ||
| What's the prediction? | ||
| The predicament is that we have to. | ||
| If he doesn't sign it by Thursday, we walk away. | ||
| Oh, 100%. | ||
| 100%. | ||
| But what's the prediction? | ||
| What predicament are we in? | ||
| No, listen to the money. | ||
| This is a self-induced predicament. | ||
| Right, because that's the problem. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| What's the predicament that we're guaranteeing there? | ||
| You guarantee somebody sovereignty. | ||
| That is massive, particularly when the Russians think they're part of Russia, right? | ||
| And the Ukrainians. | ||
| I got the fact that Ukrainian is not, but if you guarantee their sovereignty, you guarantee their sovereignty, you're on the hook for everything. | ||
| That's a self-induced predicament of the United States. | ||
| This is the bloodlines. | ||
| This is a European problem. | ||
| If they want to be guaranteeing sovereignty in Brussels and UK, have at it, but I don't think you're going to see those guys. | ||
| If the Americans aren't there, they're not going to be guaranteeing anything because they got nothing guaranteed with. | ||
| Anyway, Cortez, you gave it your best shot. | ||
| I appreciate the fact you gave it your best shot. | ||
| We'll see a lot more of that this week. | ||
| Where do people go, Steve? | ||
| Get all your videos, everything. | ||
| Yes, CortezInvestigates.com, Cortez with an S at the end. | ||
