Episode 5232: President Trump Participates In Commander In Chief Trophy Ceremony; SC MAGA Is Coming For Lindsey Graham
Senator Lindsey Graham faces a primary challenge from Mark Lynch amid allegations of USAID funding for Gaza NGOs accused of aiding Hamas. President Trump celebrates Navy Midshipmen victories, claims Iran's navy was destroyed, and issues an executive order preserving the Army-Navy game date. Meanwhile, Wynton Hall warns of NVIDIA executives arrested for shipping AI chips to China, while Cameron Kinsey alerts listeners to aggressive IRS enforcement before Mike Lindell promotes his Minnesota gubernatorial campaign and My Pillow products. [Automatically generated summary]
Lindsey Graham, who thinks it's Charlie Wilson's war, just for our audience, as they take your piece, we're pushing it out, and I want them to chew on it over the weekend.
What would be the couple of highlights that you would point them to, sir?
There's a group, and this is the way these NGOs work.
There's an NGO in Gaza called the Bayadir Association for Environment or something.
That's how they are structured or named so that they seem not so nefarious.
But since 2016, there was almost a million dollars in U.S. AID fund that we know about that went to them, even though they're openly hosting and throwing parties with leading figures of Hamas.
That money is going to Hamas.
Meanwhile, what's Hamas doing?
Just this week, they're urging Iran to activate all fronts against the United States and our allies.
They are urging terrorist organizations, others to activate against America and its interests.
They're helping to embolden Iran, knowing that Iran has allies in the region.
And what's Iran doing just as recently as today?
They're saying that they need to bring this fight across the globe and expand it beyond the Middle East.
Sure sounds like terrorism to me.
Meanwhile, they're continuing to attempt to stockpile these missiles.
And they're all doing this with American taxpayer money coming from groups that were advocated for by Lindsey Graham.
Meanwhile, I asked his office if they could point to any instances of Lindsey Graham cheerleading or trying to generate any oversight at all over USAID, particularly as it related to their money going to these terrorist groups, and I didn't get a response.
Steve, I think we've just scratched the surface with it.
You can find me on X or Twitter at Bradley AJ.
We'll tag that story up at the top.
We'll pin it to the top.
It's on Breitbart.com.
We're going to stay on this because not only is it big as it relates to this story, but again, I think that this tells us a lot about what kind of advice the president is getting from his stable of Senate advisors.
Maybe we should all be putting the pressure on some of them.
And let's hope that President Trump is listening to the right people.
Thank you so much for taking time to come with us.
Okay, President Trump's going to walk in a minute.
Got to get Noel Frisch joins us from the National File.
Now, Noel, you also work for very, I would say this, very conservative candidates.
We can assume that Noel is on the right side of the political spectrum.
National File, a great site.
The laws of political physics, because I keep sitting here going, the folks in South Carolina, some of the best folks in the world, and they're super MA.
And they're patriots.
So many have served in the military.
You've got military bases all over the place down there.
Mo lived there at one time on one of the bases.
I tell you what, president's coming out, Noel.
I just gave you a great tee-up.
We're going to get to it right after we finish with the president of the United States.
I want to begin by just saying we're doing extremely well in Iran.
The difference between them and us is they had a Navy two weeks ago.
They have no Navy anymore.
It's all at the bottom of the sea.
58 ships knocked down in two days.
And we have the greatest Navy anywhere in the world.
It's not even close.
But we are doing really well.
We're not going to let them have nuclear weapons because if they had them, they'd use them.
And we're not going to let that happen.
Should have been done a long time ago by other presidents.
So it's an honor to be here.
This is fun.
And these are great athletes standing behind me.
Great coaches, general managers, great people, and a great superintendent.
Hello, superintendent.
We only put our finest as these superintendents for these great schools because we don't want to have somebody that they don't look up to.
We take our best.
And they're really amazing.
For the second year in a row, it's my great honor to officially present the Commander-in-Chief's trophy to the one and only Navy midshipmen football team with 11 wins and two losses, playing the best teams in football.
I used to always think of the military services, they play like a little step below.
It's not true.
They play the big teams and they beat them.
These players achieve one of the most impressive seasons in Navy football history and any football history, frankly.
You know, when I mentioned the Navy that we just destroyed, I said, are they good ships?
Yeah, they're great ships.
Then I said, why didn't we save them?
We could have used them ourselves.
He said the difference was they didn't know how to use them, right, General?
They didn't know how to use them.
They had no idea.
But I want to recognize Navy Athletic Director Michael Kelly, who has just done an incredible job.
Thank you very much.
He looks like a Kelly.
He's definitely a Kelly.
Along with head coach Brian Newberry, fantastic coach, Brian.
He go off to the second best start for any football coach in school history.
What's second?
Who's first?
It's pretty good.
That must have been a Roger Starr back here, maybe, or something.
Because I tell you what, I got to watch Roger Starr back, and he was something.
He was like, I have to say, I've said it, and some people were insulted by it, but it was like a man playing with children.
He would single-handedly win those games.
It was incredible.
Thanks as well to your superintendent, Lieutenant General Michael Borg Schulte, who is an accomplished Navy linebacker, a very good one, back in the day.
We're also pleased to be joined by Secretary of War Pete Heckset.
So they say, I mean, they have zero people came in through our border.
You see it, right?
And I said, the president makes a big difference.
Well, the generals make a big difference too.
But I told him, I said, Dan, if you don't mind, stay in the situation room and you watch all those attacks that we're hitting those guys with.
And they don't know what's happening.
Their Navy's gone.
Their Air Force is gone.
Their anti-aircraft is all gone.
It's all gone.
Their radar is all gone.
Their leaders are all gone.
The next set of leaders are all gone.
And the next set of leaders are mostly gone.
And now nobody wants to be a leader over there anymore.
We're having a hard time.
We want to talk to them, and there's nobody to talk to.
We have nobody to talk to.
And you know what?
We like it that way.
And we have many other distinguished members of the United States military, but I want to tell you, Hegseth is doing a great job.
And Ray Zincaine is doing a great job, as good as anybody's ever seen.
Don't forget, we had Venezuela.
That was the beginning where people started to see the talent.
I rebuilt the military and built it, frankly, including Space Force.
But I rebuilt the military in my first term.
I didn't think I'd be using it this much, but I'm glad I rebuilt it because we can't let these lunatics have nuclear weapons because they were going to use them.
They'd use them fast.
One of the ways you know that is when this whole thing started, they started shooting missiles all over the Middle East at countries that were basically not involved because they wanted to take over the Middle East.
And if they had a nuclear weapon, they would have used it.
The only question would have been the first hour of the first day.
That's the only question.
They would have used it.
And if they can use a nuclear weapon, the world would have been in big trouble.
We had to stop.
It should have been done long ago.
I also want to thank FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, perhaps the most powerful man in this room.
You are doing some job.
He's trying to keep the fake news, he's trying to make the fake news real and respect it again, which is not an easy job, but you're doing a really amazing job.
First time that's happened in 25 years.
So I congratulate you and everybody in the room.
Everybody in this whole country is watching what you're doing, and we appreciate it.
When a man can get elected in a landslide, winning every, think of it, seven swing states, win them all.
We win the popular vote.
We win the Electoral College by a tremendous amount.
We win the counties by 82 or 84%.
And I got no good press.
Think of it.
Only one thing.
That only means one thing.
These people are not respected.
They're just not respected.
And we have to have a press that's respective.
When you can win an election where they say that I got 94% bad press, think of it.
The other side got 94% good press.
When they can get 94% and you win in a landslide, that means the press is not respected.
People have no confidence in it.
So you're doing a fantastic job.
Senators Todd Young and Dan Sullivan, great senators, wherever you may be.
You're here someplace.
Where are you?
Hello, fellas.
Good senators, great guys.
And Representatives Ronnie Jackson, White House doctor.
He served three presidents.
He said, you had Barack Hussein Obama.
Have you heard of Barack Hussein Obama?
You had Obama.
I didn't want to talk about Biden, but he said, and you had Bush.
You had young Bush, I call him.
Young Bush.
I was not a fan, but that's all right.
But they asked the press asked him, who's the healthiest of the three?
Dr. Ronnie, stand up, Dr. Ronnie.
There's a big deal.
Took a lot of heat for this.
They said, most guys would say, well, we don't want to talk about that.
They said, who's the healthiest of the three?
He said, President Donald J. Trump by far.
If he didn't eat junk food, he'd live to 200 years old.
And I love this guy.
And he then left and he ran.
He was an admiral.
And he then left.
And he was a White House doctor, a very respected one.
He saved a lot of lives.
He was a great doctor.
People don't realize that.
And he then left and he said, sir, I'd like to run for Congress.
I said, you've never done it before.
You won't be able to pull it off.
In a very, very all-Trump district, there were 28 people running.
Those are really the people that are very much in charge of making everything work at the Academy.
And the other academy, separately, separate groups.
Very important position.
For the Navy midshipmen, 2025 was truly a season for the ages.
You didn't just win the Commander-in-Chief's trophy.
You made history as one of the greatest teams to ever wear the proud uniform of Navy football, some uniform.
The teams have gotten so good in the schools that I was able to get, and we're pushing it very hard to make it permanent, a military academy deferment policy.
So, because you have some people here, you know when I went on the field and I threw up a coin, I'm standing next to these guys.
They were monsters.
I said, look at the size of these guys.
I thought they were supposed to be small.
I thought you had sort of restrictions on size, you know?
We got rid of that because some of these guys were extremely large.
And, you know, we have the NFL teams here also.
Whoever wins the Super Bowl, they come.
The baseball teams, we had the Dodgers, we have them all.
But I saw the size of these guys, so I got used to it.
And I said, these guys are as big as the NFL.
And at one of the visits a while ago, first term, they asked me, they said, sir, we have a hard time recruiting because a player, if he's really good, he can't do the four or five years in the military service.
Could you ask, would like to do a military academy deferment policy?
I immediately knew what he meant.
And we got it done.
And it allows you to defer your service until after your career.
So you go in the NFL for 10 years.
So now everyone wants to join.
So do I get credit for this successful team then?
The superintendent's going to say yes.
I don't know about Coach.
I don't know about Kelly.
But the coach, I think, it made your life a little bit easier.
It was tough for the teams when they used to have to play guys that were twice their size, right?
So they did good.
They had better heart.
They have the best heart in the business, but size does matter.
And so what we did is we got that, so you have a deferment, so a lot of people are able to join now, and they do their service later.
They're great patriots, but that would be a lot to ask.
And I think it's helped your teams really compete at the highest, highest level.
The team was led by your incredible senior class, and that includes the co-captain and star quarterback, Blake Horvath, who is fantastic.
But he ends his college career as one of the most accurate Navy quarterbacks of all time with an astounding almost 60% completion rate, second only to the man we just spoke about, Roger Stobeck, who was unbelievable.
He was unbelievable.
He served five years and then he came in and he came in at like 27 or something and he was phenomenal as an NFL player.
Likewise, senior wide receiver Eli Haydenreich scorched opposing defenses all year long.
So we have Eli setting all the school records for receiving touchdowns, earning a spot at the NFL Combine, and cementing himself as, without a doubt, the greatest wide receiver in Navy history.
It doesn't really matter, so I wish you went, right?
So that's great, Coach.
But as every Navy football player knows, you don't make it to the White House unless you also triumph over Army on that second Saturday of December, which is the whole deal.
I was at that game.
It was amazing.
It was an amazing game.
The spirit, and I have to say they introduced Trump.
The place went crazy.
There were no, like, let's give a little boo.
There wasn't a boo in the house.
Even the fake news couldn't say.
I've gone to games where I've got, I would say I got 97%, but there might be one person, boo, boo.
They cover that person.
They interview that person.
That person becomes a star.
But they couldn't find any person at that game.
That was some game.
It was some scene in the historic 126th Army-Navy football game.
After you did that, the momentum shifted, right, Coach?
The coach was saying, I think, I don't know, I got a problem, and then he did that.
We all felt that that's great.
Congratulations.
That's beautiful.
That's amazing.
So Alex did his job, and he did a fantastic job.
But every football player knows, every single one of them, that you don't have heart, you don't have that.
You can have all the strength like Brandon.
You can have all the strength you want, but if you don't have heart, that's exactly what Alex showed, and he's another one that's known for that.
Then three times the formidable Army defense held the line, and they really held it, making it fourth and goal, midshipmen.
So it's time to do or die, right, Coach?
And with six minutes and 37 seconds left on the clock, other teams might have kicked an easy field goal, but that's not this coach.
Coach, did you have a call?
Did you call up the superintendent and talk to him like, what do I do?
Or did you just say, let's go for it?
I think you said go.
I think you just go for it, right, Coach?
But not this team with this coach with the Commander-in-Chief's trophy on the line, which is a big deal.
Blake dropped back in the pocket, surveyed the field, delivered a strike across the middle to Eli for a touchdown, and secured victory over Army in one of the most iconic moments in Navy football history.
I wouldn't say in Army football history.
I guess it was iconic also, but not quite in the same manner.
But I watched that.
That was incredible.
The annual Army-Navy game is truly one of the most special occasions in all of sports.
But in recent years, the college football playoff expansion has encroached on this sacred four-hour time slot traditionally reserved for Army-Navy.
So what did I do?
I went out.
I don't know if I could have pulled it off.
I have much more power in my second term, don't you think?
What do you think?
Would you say, Brandon?
Much more power.
First term, I don't know if I could have gotten away with this, but what did I do?
I went out and said, I'm going to sign an executive order to ensure that the second Saturday in December is preserved exclusively.
Nobody's playing football.
Not Ohio State against Notre Dame.
Not LSU against Alabama.
Nobody's going to play football for four hours during that very special time of the year in December.
It's preserved forever for the Army-Navy game.
Now, if you don't want to watch football, you don't have to.
But if you want to watch football, you're only watching one game.
You're not watching 19 different games.
All of them in many ways big.
So, Coach, that puts a little pressure because the whole world's going to be watching.
So nobody else is going to be allowed.
Of course, we'll probably get sued at some point.
We always get sued.
But we win those suits and we'll win this one.
The only game that's going to be played, so we preserve that time, no matter who it is, you're playing the Army-Navy game.
And just simply, we don't want other college football games over over, you know, playing over us.
And frankly, I'd always watch the Army-Navy game anyway, but you don't know.
You get some of these games, they're pretty tough, pretty good, and they're pretty tough.
And they'll be able to play, but they'll play after 7 o'clock, I think.
We brought it all the way up to 7 o'clock, so that should give you plenty of time, even if you have a little overtime stuff.
So it's great.
It's just an honor to do because it's such an important tradition of our country.
It's beyond football, actually.
It's a tradition of our country.
In two short months, the 28 seniors on this team will be commissioned as officers and the greatest military of the world has ever seen.
We're the greatest military in the world, the strongest, the greatest.
And we're proving that when you can take Venezuela in a matter of minutes, put somebody on a helicopter that was well guarded with thousands of people with iron doors.
Those doors were like plastic.
The United States Navy, the Marines, the whole military, we have the greatest in the world.
I was so proud of what I did.
And I always loved Space Force because that was my baby.
That has never happened.
That hasn't happened in 81 years.
A new force.
And it hadn't happened.
And I think we all agree that Space Force has become, you think, right, very important.
Very important to the success that we're having even now.
Over the past few weeks, the world has seen the true strength and might of our sailors and aviators as they fought in one of the most complex and successful military operations of all time against the Iranian regime.
And it's amazing.
It's not.
I don't want to get too crazy here.
Not a contest.
It's not even a contest.
They do whatever they want.
They can't, they are, they had a lot of great equipment.
Russian equipment, Chinese equipment, a lot of, they had plenty of money.
That equipment was useless against us, useless.
No force on earth can beat the American sailors or the American military with the strongest in the world by far.
To those standing behind me who will soon be joining these missions, I say sail fast, stay strong, and go Navy.
And I just want to congratulate again this incredible team on the win of this trophy.
It's not often that this trophy gets presented.
You have to have a very special year to get it.
And I'm going to sign the executive order right now and then invite Coach Newberry up to say a few words and talk about what a great team and what great individuals they are.
So Coach, I'll sign and then you take over, okay?
Thank you very much.
This is not an auto-pen.
Imagine taking it and say, would you please have this sign?
Thank you for signing that executive order protecting the sanctity of the Army-Navy game.
It's a game with a soul, and it deserves to be protected.
Thank you very much.
Thank you to you and your staff for your gracious hospitality and for making today's ceremony possible.
And thank you to the distinguished guests and everyone in attendance for being here to recognize this team and this exceptional group of young men.
On behalf of our players, our staff, and their families, our superintendent, General Michael Bogschulte, and our athletic director, Michael Kelly, it is truly an honor to be here.
We're grateful and humbled to be back again.
As I shared last year, it's been our goal to return to this stage many times during your tenure, Mr. President.
There's no higher honor in our program than standing here representing the Naval Academy, the entire brigade of midshipmen, the Brotherhood, and all the men and women who serve and have served in our Navy and Marine Corps.
These young men understand that wearing the Navy uniform comes with a responsibility greater than football.
Each day they strive to live up to the core values of honor, courage, and commitment, and the standards of those who came before them.
Leaders of character who have gone on to serve our country with distinction.
What they accomplished this season is a direct result of that ethos and mindset.
The players here on stage and to my left in the audience are some of the very best our country has to offer.
In just a little over two months, these 28 seniors standing behind me will graduate and commission as officers in our Navy and Marine Corps under your command, Mr. President.
They will do so with character, discipline, and the values that define this institution.
I also want to recognize our fellow service academies, the United States Army and the United States Air Force.
The rivalry we share is among the greatest traditions in college football, but it is grounded in deep and enduring respect because we know that one day many of these young men may stand shoulder to shoulder in defense of our nation.
The Commander-in-Chief's trophy represents the commitment, discipline, teamwork that define the future leaders and warfighters of our armed forces.
Every day our players balance the demands of Division I athletics with the responsibility of preparing to serve as officers.
That challenge forges the character this trophy represents.
In our view, it is the most meaningful and honorable trophy in all of college sports.
To our families, alumni, and the countless people who support the Naval Academy, thank you.
Your belief in these young men and what this institution stands for makes moments like this possible and special.
Mr. President, thank you for hosting us today and for your continued support of the men and women who serve our great country.
This time, I'd like to bring our two captains, Landon Robinson and Blake Horbeth up to present you with a couple of gifts.
unidentified
Great.
Thank you. For sure.
Well, first, Mr. President, it's just an honor to be here.
You're the healthiest guy here, so you got a neck to do it.
So just want to say thank you so much for having us here.
Absolute honor.
And last year, I was hesitant to say it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience, right?
Because I knew we'd be back this year.
So I'm glad I can now say it's a twice-in-a-lifetime experience and just couldn't have done it without our whole team here, right?
Our support staff from the strength and the trainers to all these guys and all the guys who are still at school right now in class.
Thanks to all of them and just for everybody for supporting us.
And, you know, go Navy, beat everybody.
Absolutely.
You know, first off, thank you, Mr. President, for the opportunity to be here.
Blake said it, said most of it, but I'm just so thankful to all my teammates, all my coaches for all the hard work they've put in.
It's very hard to go 11-2 in a season, but I couldn't be more proud to play for Navy football, and I couldn't be more proud to represent the United States Naval Academy.
The Commander-in-Chief trophy, of course, goes to the team that has the best record amongst the Air Force Academy, West Point, and the United States Naval Academy.
Just a tremendous look at that right there.
Great kids.
Those are the young men that you have manning these carriers.
Many pilots, officers, surface warfare officers, intelligence officers on the submarines.
And of course, the United States Marine Corps, very ironic today, with the Marine Expeditionary Unit leaving San Diego, heading to the North Arabian Sea, but that's what they do.
Right there.
What a great little ceremony.
Always honored to cover it every year.
And the president at the top of his game today.
So they're going to go down to the Oval Office.
If you go see the President, you'll get a trip to the Oval Office.
And then right next to the Oval Office, between the Oval Office and the little dining room he has that he works out of a lot.
There's a space now that he's got.
He keeps all the ball caps and he keeps some of the merch and memorabilia and everybody gets to stop there and pick up a ball cap or pick up something.
Anchors Away, the traditional song of the United States Navy in the United States Naval Academy.
Absolutely incredible.
Great service today.
Noel Frisch, as we're playing the, as we're going out on this segment with Anchors Away, you have a just talk about serendipity.
You actually have a connection.
We have you on here talking about Lindsey Graham, but you actually have a connection with the United States Naval Academy, sir.
My father was the starting center, the offensive lineman for the Naval Academy back in the 70s, his sophomore through senior year under George Welsh, who then went to coach in your home state at the University of Virginia.
Your father must have been quite a football player because George Welsh was known as what we refer to as a taskmaster.
We also have the Naval Academy's fantastic.
I just want to do add before I go to Noel talk about Lindsey Graham.
Mo is, I think, 7-0 against Navy as a volleyball player.
7-0.
Of course, at West Point, they really, the 11-2 record they talked about today, they really gauge you as an athlete of how you do, if you're at Naval Academy, how many times you beat Army, and if you're at Army, how you beat Navy.
That is really the intensity of that rivalry.
Noel, I want to talk about some man.
I want to talk about the law of political physics.
I have been, and you work for one of the candidates.
In fact, I think we had the candidate on when he first started his campaign, and I want to say it was in the spring of 2024.
I keep asking for the folks in South Carolina, particularly as Lindsey Graham gets more and more out of control and quite frankly, more and more offensive as he goes on in his personal behavior.
And he's trying to make it like Charlie Wilson's war.
And as I said, Charlie Wilson's war is nothing to laugh at.
I know the movie was turned into something like a, I don't want to say a light comedy, but it had a comedic tones to it.
What Charlie Wilson was doing was very serious.
And Charlie Wilson did do a lot of good, but he also did a lot of damage.
And this is why we got to think about this.
And Lindsey Graham, just this kind of all this time he spends in the Middle East and he comes out with these things like two weeks ago that he would offer, he would offer Saudi Arabia, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, in perpetuity defense pact if they quit stabbing us in the back and got to the gun line of going against Iran.
It was just things like this all the time.
And I kept asking, I said, I see these numbers.
He's got these huge numbers.
And President Trump has endorsed him.
And President Trump's beloved down with the MAGA base.
But I said, there's got to be some time that the folks in South Carolina who are as strong of patriots as possible and particularly patriots that serve their country.
It's a history of service to the nation.
I said, at some point in time, I said, unless I'm missing it, some point in time, there's got to be an awakening here and a reckoning with Lindsey Graham and really have a real conversation and debate about this race.
And then I saw that Rasmussen and Mark Mitchell and the team over there have been doing some polling.
Can you just walk people, which I think is kind of blockbuster stunning polling for a guy that's an incumbent that's got the Senate leadership fund, unlimited amount of money and the endorsement of President Trump?
Can you walk us through the math of what's happening in South Carolina, sir?
And yeah, full disclosure, I do work for Mark Lynch.
Mark Lynch is a businessman in the upstate of South Carolina, and he's putting it all in, pushing all the chips in to get rid of this weirdo, Lindsey Graham.
And so the numbers, going back to last May, there was another Rasmussen poll that showed that Lindsey was very vulnerable.
That's very consistent with other, there are a lot of other polls out there showing that Lindsey Graham is very vulnerable.
And this cycle, we have just the guy to do it.
We have a successful businessman in Mark Lynch, and he's been up on air on TV for many months last year and all this year.
When you say he's afraid, just walk through the math.
If an incumbent's below 50%, that's a flashing red light.
The most incumbent should be able to blow these, particularly where you've been around an incumbent for a couple of times and you're very close to the leadership in the Senate, so they'll pour unlimited money in you.
What is the basic math that shows?
When you say he's in trouble, give me some math to prove that.
So that survey back last May showed that fully 57% of the primary electorate, the Republican primary electorate in South Carolina, is not going to vote for Lindsey.
So that's a horrendous number for Lindsay.
Usually, like you say, these incumbents, they get scared if they get, you know, if their approvals are anywhere near 50.
It's not just the whole thing of everybody down there.
It's not even, I think it's likely voters, correct?
It's not just registered voters.
It's likely voters.
So as you get closer, this thing is pretty serious.
And it's a big poll and it's done by somebody.
The Rasmussen group is known as somebody that really has, you know, along with Richard Barris and probably Trafalgar, really has their hands on the pulse of the MAGA movement and Trump-aligned grassroots people.
So what does it show?
What type of trouble is it show Lindsey Graham in?
So it's a very sizable sample and a pretty low margin of error.
And it's got Lindsey Graham at 41, which is nine points below that 50% number that we mentioned earlier.
And then Lynch at 21 and then all others rounding it out.
And so that anti-Lindsay number adds up to about 33%.
And so it's 41, 33 with like roughly almost 30% undecided, Steve.
And so as you know, what happens is as people start to wake up and look at the election, not everybody's looking at the election all year long like, you know, you and I are.
And, you know, the war room posse is a lot of times.
And so, but the voters are going to start to wake up here over the next 11 weeks as we go to June the 9th for this primary.
And they're going to say, well, I got Lindsey and I got a business guy outsider.
And those are going to break two to one for the business guy outsider, Mark Lynch.
And so, and then the key part is this, on the informed ballot, the pollsters and the guys who run these surveys, they're statisticians and their data guys.
They call it the informed ballot.
That's after you've been told about Lindsay.
And you know now about Lindsay that he's backed USAID, that he backed all the Ukraine wars, that he backed Amnesty, that now, as you reported earlier today, that he's funding literal terrorists that are closing the Strait of Hormuz with that great report from Breitbart News.
When they learn all of this, his support is so soft, Steve, it falls off the table.
And Lynch leads.
It's an inversion.
It's the 34 and then Lynch 34 and then Lindsey Graham is down in the 20s.
Wynton Hall code read the long-awaited two things happening.
First off, Wynton, about your book directly, The Left, the Right, the China and Control and the Race to Control AI.
Blockbuster news overnight, an industrial concern, a great company, now senior executives arrested by the FBI for, what is this?
They're shipping behind the scenes in fake servers, NVIDIA chips to the Chinese Communist Party so the Chinese Communist Party can keep up with artificial intelligence.
Can you break that down for us, sir?
I think you warn about that in your book, don't you?
And it's something that you've been very strong on.
There's nobody that's stronger on the CCP and understanding the 5D chess game that they're playing.
And it really is going to be a game over compute, right?
The GPUs, the graphic processing units.
We've seen this debate over export chip controls.
We've seen the debate with the H200s.
Yeah, this is just another example of the end runs that are being done and how you can sneak around any regulation or any kind of control.
But obviously, China's determined drive here.
And so NVIDIA, this is a real problem because you're talking about not just the current Blackwell chips, you're talking about the Verarubin chips and getting these advanced chips into the hands of the CCP.
These are the same kinds of efforts that the CCP has set out in 2017 to dominate the AI race by 2030.
We got four years.
Okay, they've been very focused.
Everybody needs to understand something.
China imports more semiconductors than it does oil.
That's their national priority because they understand both the economic upside of this issue and the power that will accrue to it, but also the military applications.
And in addition to that, the CCP techno-surveillance state.
And specifically on that, you know, things like supremacy in encryption, supremacy in hacking of weapons systems, supremacy in being able to hack infrastructure.
So this is real.
And, you know, this is why this whole export chip control is so important.
And I'm so glad that you and Joe Allen and a handful of others, look, a lot of people don't want to get in the weeds on this stuff.
And they say, well, we just want to play with the cotton candy stuff and the bread and circus stuff.
This is where the rubber hits the road.
Okay.
Because whoever has the most advanced chips and whoever's been able to do that, you're going to be able to see these issues that we've talked about, the choke points.
This is the only thing holding this thing back are these choke points.
There's very few places that you can really apply pressure.
And when you're talking to most experts, you're talking about a six-month to three-year lead, maybe.
And again, we know the hidden hand strategy of the CCP and Xi Jinping to be able to flashbang grenade over here and actually have something information and movement over here.
So people got to lock in and they got to dial in on this.
And this espionage issue and handing off chips is exactly why we've been talking about all this stuff for so long.
And I'm glad finally, you know, unfortunately in this situation, but we've got to get some attention on this right away.
So for this audience, because it is very important on this issue and all the issues related to artificial intelligence that you use your agency and come to your own individual conclusions.
Nobody's going to tell you guys how to think on this, but we are going to set a framework so you can get the information to kind of think it through because it's a very complex topic.
That's why Code Red is the book you need and you need now.
Why do I say you need it now?
Because as we were on this show and watching the commander-in-chief there with the United States Naval Academy's football team, the White House released this long-awaited kind of federal framework, this huge fight with Ron DeSantis and everybody at these states.
This federal framework is four pages long.
It is going to be controversial, but you need to have the background.
The power of this book is that he walks you through what you need to know about artificial intelligence, but then gets into the power and influence and politics of it so that you have a framework of how to think this through.
And that's why Code Red is so important.
So you got to go to a bookstore or go to Amazon and get it delivered tomorrow.
Because I think this weekend, this, let's say, firestorm debate that's going to come over this framework is going to be quite intense.
And it is going to do more than anything to kind of drive the direction of this country and our number one existential threat, the competitor, the Chinese Communist Party, in this regard.
Went, I'm going to hold you through the break.
I want two minutes, and we're going to get you back over the weekend to break down Code Red because Code Red's the book the White House just put out its guidance.
I am on Twitter at Winton Hall, W-Y-N-T-O-N Hall, and it's everywhere books are sold, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, books, a million.
And you're exactly right.
We've just got to give people the information and let them make the decisions.
And that's why Code Red tries to shorten your learning curve in AI by five years, take all the most important things so you understand the concepts because this is going to be the most seismic shift we've ever encountered, as you said, as a species technologically.
In fact, Joe Allen's going to join me this afternoon to talk about this.
Wenton will be back over the weekend.
The White House put the framework.
I've already put it up, and we're going to put a bunch of articles coming up on it even as we speak.
Code Red, go to a bookstore and get it or order today on Amazon.
Wenton Hall, thank you.
See you over the weekend, sir.
Cameron Kinsey, thank you for joining us.
Cameron, look, we just all every year on March 15th, we always do a special IDES of March and go through the assassination of Julius Caesar with the footage, historical footage from some commentary.
The IDES of April are upon us, and that is a day that people fear.
Well, thanks so much, Steve, for having me back on.
I want to speak directly to the war room posse when I say this because it is a critical moment right now as we approach the April 15th deadline.
We are seeing two groups of people right now, Steve.
The first are the people who filed.
They're absolutely shocked by how much they owe.
And the second are those who haven't filed yet because they're too afraid of what that amount is going to be.
And I totally understand that.
People are playing catch up from the inflation and rising costs that we had previously.
But here's the reality.
The IRS does not slow down based on who's in office.
Their mandate is to collect revenue.
You know, the enforcement is becoming more targeted and more aggressive, even smaller balances because of the staffing shifts that we've seen under President Trump.
Remaining agents are under pressure to be more efficient during this time, which means quicker notices, faster escalation, more targeted enforcement across a broader group of taxpayers.
So here's what I'll say.
The worst thing you can do right now is panic, but the second worst thing you can do right now, Steve, is just ignore this completely.
So the first step that you should take is just file on time.
Call us if you need help, even if you cannot pay, because you're going to have that failure to file P, which is significantly worse than the failure to file penalty.
Filing at least protects you right out of the gate.
And once that deadline passes, penalties start immediately.
Interest compounds daily.
That balance, Steve, can snowball very quickly.
What feels manageable in April coming up can look completely different a few months later.
So here's what people don't realize.
You do have options.
There are structured solutions like installment agreements to spread the payments out.
We have offers and compromise that can reduce what you owe, innocent spouse relief, if you were unfairly tied to a partner's tax burden, hardship, currently not collectible status, you name it.
But none of these are automatic.
They depend on your financial picture, how your case is presented.
And that's really where Tax Network steps in.
We act as a liaison between you and the IRS.
So you're not taking on that burden alone.
We don't expect the average person to know the tax code inside and out.
Our team will protect you.
We'll gather all the necessary financial documentation.
And like Steve noted, we have the free discovery call.
We're going to continue that.
Normally that costs hundreds, if not thousands of dollars, where we are talking to the IRS, acting as a liaison, figuring out your full financial picture and what they have on you.
I'm going to talk about this every day between now and April 15th.
Don't fear the unknown.
You got to file, but go do the free discovery call now, 866-513-5516.
Look, they've heard your tale of woe.
These guys have solved a billion dollars worth of tax issues.
They know the people they are us to talk about.
There's nothing to be ashamed of, nothing to be afraid of.
They've heard it all before.
Just get over the fear.
Cameron, thank you for taking time today to do this.
866-513-5516.
They set up a special number just for the war room posse.
TNUSA.com.
Throw in there, you're coming from the war room.
Promo code Bannon.
Cameron Kinsey, thank you so much, ma'am.
Have you back on here?
Got to do this free discovery call, folks.
Got nothing to lose but your fear.
Mike Lindell, you're heading down to the great state of Georgia talking about running in Minnesota.
What do you got for why are you going down to Georgia?
They love you down there because you've been fighting for helping those folks down there, those patriots trying to get to the bottom of the 2020 election.
