Time Text
Outro Well guys, good to be back with you.
I've been a pissed off son for a couple of days and I think probably well justified in that, but When I thought it was perhaps subsiding a little bit and I was just, you know, lucky to be blessed, which we are.
I think that was an act of divine intervention.
I just got some news from our good friend, Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackbird, who was literally on the phone call with, I guess it was DHS, Marsha?
It was.
It was our Secret Service director and the deputy and the FBI.
And this was not a classified call.
It was not a media call.
This was a call for senators to get some answers.
So many of us had questions, and as I mentioned, I know there are three of us that were in the queue that had our hands raised that were not called on.
They just ran out of time for a couple of senators.
That happened to be you.
Mike Lee and Ted Cruz.
So people who are conservative who would probably ask the tough questions.
We had some questions.
The big the big thing is this is you look at the timeline.
They had spotted a guy with a range finder and a backpack.
So they tag somebody.
And then they locate him at 551.
The sharpshooters are alerted at 553.
President Trump is still allowed to go on stage.
So they identify a threat.
They're aware of a threat.
They know this for seven minutes, maybe even a little bit longer, right?
I guess nine minutes.
And they still let him get on that stage?
Yes.
I mean, that can't be Secret Service protocol.
Well, even before that, they knew there was a suspicious individual.
And Senator Cornyn got the first question.
Well, after Senator Schumer, Senator Cornyn got his.
But here is the thing.
If there is a threat, and you know that there is a threat, Play a little bit more music and see if you can resolve this and apprehend the individual.
Or do something, Don, so that you do not put the protectee and the people that are there in danger.
And of course, we all, we are just so incredibly grateful that President Trump was spared.
And we are so incredibly grateful that more people were not hurt.
And we just mourn for those lost lives.
But I mean, they allowed that to happen, too, right?
My father was blessed and got lucky, but, you know, a great fireman, a great patriot... He was blessed and protected.
I agree, but someone still died.
I know we had Ronnie Jackson, Congressman Ronnie Jackson here.
Right.
His nephew was grazed by the bullet that actually killed the gentleman.
And they knew that this was out there and they didn't put things on pause because no one's starting to shoot if my father's not on that stage.
That's right.
But to know that there's a credible threat and to still let him go up there, that is totally against Anything I've ever seen in the Secret Service.
Why would they do that?
When they had even a potential threat somewhere else, they pulled my father off a stage.
It turned out to be false.
They don't take gambles like, wow, maybe it's okay.
That's not how they do it.
So, wow.
That's right.
If you've made that assessment, then like you're saying, you punch the pause button.
You put things in pause, but you don't move forward.
And there are so many... After I got off the call, I thought, I've got even more questions.
Why did it take two days for the Secret Service Director to be able to respond?
Well, why does she say the buck stops with her, but it doesn't?
She's not going to resign.
No one's getting in trouble.
She should be fired.
I mean, this is... I mean, Marsha, I know you and I are not afraid of a sloped roof.
Slightly sloped roof.
Not at all.
These tough Secret Service snipers are afraid of roofs.
I'm walking up and down sloped walkways out here all over the place, and I don't fear it.
It's so asinine, but guys, the timing that we thought, you know, you'd question, oh, hey, did they find out while he was in process, while he was in speech, and they're figuring it out?
They knew before they ever let my father get on the stage that there was a real threat, and that makes this all so much worse.
It wasn't like they discovered it midstream and everything like that, Crazy.
And of course, they won't take your questions or Ted Cruz's questions or Mike Lee's questions.
Or get more substantive.
Yeah.
It's like the obligatory cover your ass call and then nothing will happen.
But that's the nugget out of it.
They knew that there was a a potential threat. They did not pause that event and they
allowed the event to go on and we're just ever so grateful as I said that President Trump
was spared and we just so mourn the loss of life.
I appreciate you fighting for all of these things.
I know your team is rushing you out.
We were just having this conversation.
I was like, hey, we're going live early, and we're going to get that out there.
But thank you so much, Marcia.
You got it.
I really appreciate it.
And we'll definitely see you soon.
Grateful for you and the good work you do.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Well, guys, that's a little crazy one.
But good evening.
Welcome to another huge Random episode of Triggered because this one is going to be a special show as well because not only are we breaking news, but we're also joined by Peter Navarro.
Peter literally just left federal prison this morning after serving four months.
He's in prison because he didn't comply with the unconstitutional January 6th Committee.
Peter is a patriot and living proof that the left will do whatever it can to destroy its enemies.
And he's also got a new book coming out that we're actually publishing with my winning team publishing company, The New MAGA Deal, because once they went after him, once they tried to throw him in jail, the usual suspects walk away.
Get over here, Peter.
I'm going to stand up and get out of the frame and give you a hug.
My Miami prison there, brother.
That's dedication.
You guys all heard me say, we got to support our friends.
We got to do that.
You know, whether it's, you know, through supporting the sponsors of programming like this, whether it's through just, you know, being present, making sure you defend them, you know, online and everywhere.
So, you know, when, when that was going on and, you know, I guess you were a couple of weeks in and I was like, Hey, I, I'm going to run down to Miami and man, and get, you know, It's that was a surreal experience, you know, because you're like, oh, well, it's you know, it's not maximum security.
You go through these protocols and you go through everything.
Oh, my God.
It's very real.
I was in prison, brother.
Yeah.
Razor wire and all that.
But look, I think that if my experience.
People in this country understand that if it can happen to me, it happened to Bannon, they're trying to make it It can happen to your father.
It can happen to them.
It can happen to anybody.
They have so successfully weaponized the injustice system to punish rivals that it's frightening.
One of my big taglines tonight is, if we don't control our government, their government will control us.
If we don't control our government, their government And I show how it took all three branches of the government, legislative, Congress, executive, the Attorney General, and the judicial, the judge that railroaded me into prison.
It took all three, and they're all controlled by Democrats.
They all have their own agenda.
And that cannot stand.
Judgment Day is coming, brother.
It's called Election Day.
It has to be, and just so you guys understand, right?
You mentioned Steve Bannon.
Steve Bannon just started serving a present sentence two weeks ago.
I hosted War Room yesterday just to keep that going, his show.
They did the same to you, and they're trying to do it to my father.
Now, when you think about my father's administration, arguably the three most MAGA people in that administration would be Trump, you, and Bannon.
They're trying to take key Chess pieces off the board.
They do that very effectively.
It didn't matter.
So we're clear, Peter is still under appeal.
So there hasn't even been necessarily what we'd call a final verdict in his case, but they say, well, may still be under appeal, but we're not going to bother with that.
We're just going to take you off the chess board.
We're going to put you in prison.
Even if you get everything thrown out on appeal later on, like some of the things that's happened, even with my father this week, guess what?
You don't get those four months back.
They call that irreparable harm.
I'm saying, look, You guys did a beautiful job with this book, A New MAGA Deal, and we'll talk a little bit about it in a little bit, but look at who's on it.
It's me, your dad, and Steve Bannon, okay?
Steve and I, Steve's in prison, I just got out, and a bullet, by the grace of God, just barely grazed him.
I mean, that's unbelievable.
It's the worst day I had in prison, because I watched that unfold, and I felt As helpless as I've ever felt in my life.
I did, too.
It took 90 minutes for me to even know if he was alive or not.
I just got the call.
Kim called me.
Your father's been shot.
I go, what?
Like, and?
And?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
How does that phone call work?
Yeah, that was not a good one.
And then trying to... Trying to explain that to, you know, my young kids.
You know, my older kids.
It was, you know... You know what?
The experience for me was so, so interesting.
I'm in prison.
I'm in a room about the size of this one, where you got, like, some wrecked ping-pong table, and you got a bank of TVs.
No sound.
You gotta have headphones to listen.
And I'm at a computer, like, working on my speech for tonight, right?
I look up, and I watch the whole thing without sound.
Okay.
Right?
Now, I've been to a lot of rallies.
I'm looking, even before the shot was fired, I'm looking and saying, That's a band box.
What do they have, like, trees in the back so damn close where snipers could get?
And then they pan around, I go, rooftops?
That close?
Not covered?
Not covered.
Yeah, and you've been around that footprint, so you understand as well.
I look up again, and that iconic thing where the beast thing comes, and I go, Jesus, he just got shot.
And then you could see the blood there.
And I'm thinking, how did they let this happen?
And then we learn that minutes, many minutes before, people said there's a guy on the rooftop.
The rooftops, first rule, first rule, secure the rooftops.
Of course.
First rule.
It's the high ground.
Second rule.
Basic tactics.
You don't have to be.
Second rule, if somebody says there's a shooter, you get The person off the stage.
Well, you just missed this.
Uh, Senator Marcia Blackburn was just here.
Yeah.
She came in and was just, we were literally just, she was just gonna say hi, and she's like, just so you know, I just got off the phone with the, you know, FBI director, the director and co-director or whatever of the, the Secret Service, and we were going through the scenario.
And apparently, the shooter was noticed with rangefinders and gear, notified at, uh, 5-51.
At 5.53, they knew there was a shooter on a roof.
They let my father go on the stage at 6 p.m.
It's unbelievable.
They knew for nine minutes that there was a potential of this.
This is directly from a United States senator that sat in on that call.
Of course, she had a question.
Ted Cruz had a question.
Mike Lee had a question.
Very strong conservative MAGA figures.
Those questions went unanswered.
They, you know, the tumor gets to do something.
They, you know, they don't let the hardball questions get asked.
Apparently, those guys had better things to do than answer to, you know,
our government officials, whose job that is to figure out what went wrong.
It's absolutely insane.
But it wasn't like, hey, my father was already in the speech, and they weren't really sure,
and they knew that there was an active threat for nine minutes before he even got on the stage.
And then he spoke for 11 minutes while that active threat was still out there before the shots were fired.
I mean, that is unfathomable.
So we literally just broke that.
We started the show 25 minutes early just because she was here.
I was like, you want to go on?
Because people won't even believe it if I say this.
Again, as pissed off as I've been that it could happen over the last couple of days, that's just, it makes it so much worse.
So much worse.
There's no question they let it happen.
There's no question in my mind.
I don't even want to get conspiratorial.
But you don't have to.
There's no way!
It's like Wuhan Lab.
Of course it started there.
If you know anything, I mean, look, you've been to a ton more rallies than I have, but every time you go, You look around at what the dangers can be.
Yeah.
And I'm telling you, I looked around at that venue and it's like, but this before anything happened, I go, band box, trees in the back.
What is he doing there?
Yeah.
And then they don't clear any of the rooftops.
Look, man, I mean, God, God bless America.
God bless Donald Trump because, because he, he literally dodged The ultimate bullet there.
Listen, you've paid a heavy price for being America First, for being a fighter.
Just so you guys are clear.
You know, Peter, in my father's administration, was the guy basically dealing with, like, China and trade policy.
So that's forbidden, right?
You can't say no to China because there are really powerful people in government, in business, on everyone's payroll.
There's a lot of money to make sure that we can ship your American dream off to China to save two cents on a widget.
And so you were put in their proverbial crosshairs.
And, you know, you just did Four months in prison.
I went down to see you, as we were discussing earlier, and what was amazing is...
During that time, you're literally working on a book, and I'm talking to Peter, I'm like, how's everything going?
No, Don, we gotta talk about what are we gonna do in the next administration?
This guy is such a patriot.
He didn't even, literally, he's in prison for bullshit, and his focus was the first steps in the new administration are gonna be X, Y, and Z, and that's what you wrote about in the new MAGA deal.
100 actions in 100 days, and look.
What's number one?
Border's gotta be number one, and then number two's the economy.
But see, here's the thing.
Not our first rodeo, that cliche.
The way it needs to happen and will happen is, day after the election, between then and Inauguration Day, there'll be 100 executive orders written.
And there'll be 50 more that get rid of whatever Joe Biden did, particularly how he screwed up the border.
And that's the thing, the new MAGA deal, it's got really nice chapters from folks like Mike Davis on the justice system.
It's the best of MAGA.
Russ Vogt on the budget stuff.
And the way I like the setup is the first couple of chapters, this is part of my role, is to explain to people in a way where we'll be able to defend ourselves against the inevitable attack, onslaught of criticism that MAGA is somehow outside the mainstream, when in fact, you and I both know, it's just pure Main Street, middle-of-the-road stuff.
100%.
It's domestic manufacturing.
It's secure border.
It's an end-to-endless war.
I mean, that was 2016.
And I remember the Jobs Plan speech, which I had a little bit of help in writing.
In June 2016, he delivered that.
Your father delivered that in Pittsburgh.
What was beautiful about that, Don, is that we had at the end of that speech, there was like seven things he was going to do.
Yeah.
Steal tariffs, tariffs on China by America.
He did every single one of those things.
And this time it's going to be 100 things instead of seven, because there's so much more we have to have to solve.
And.
I mean, we're in a place The theme of the speech tonight, again, is if we don't control our government... Peter's talking at the RNC at what, like 530?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sorry.
635.
635.
To be exact.
If we don't control our government, their government will control us.
And when I say their government, the other message I'm going to have today and tomorrow here is that In order to win this election, hear me out here, we can't just unite the Republican Party, we have to unite the country.
And what I'm going to be reaching out to the Democrats, and if you're a Democrat, listen to this, see if this checks one of your boxes.
Disengaged, disenfranchised from, disgusted by, the Democrat elites who have hijacked your party.
How many Democrats, do you think, fit that description?
It's a majority right now.
These woke elites who are pushing these open border, everything open border, transgender, to just gun the economies in ways which is going to drive us over fiscal cliff, that's not, that's not America, okay?
This election is not a Democrat versus a Republican.
It's about American values versus this new woke ideology, which is not embraced by anywhere near a majority.
I was just talking to a radio host.
He'd get me on there.
I'd be going, who am I talking to?
She's a host.
Madison and Milwaukee.
Madison and Milwaukee.
I'm thinking, OK, here we are in Wisconsin.
It's like this election is going to be won or lost in Madison and in Milwaukee.
It's like the students in Madison.
It's the Africans, Americans in Milwaukee.
It's like I'm saying here, like, look, if you're an African-American, The reason why so many are coming over to the Trump side is they're seeing how the border crisis is crushing their wages and stealing their jobs.
And if you're a student down in Madison getting taught by all these left-wing professors, you're wondering, you know, what's my future?
Is it like a chip in my brain?
Watching virtual reality sitting in some hovel without a job, or am I going to be able to plaster?
It isn't buying a house.
It isn't buying a house because at 7% interest rates and inflation the way it is, you're going to be living in mommy's basement for a long time.
By the way, I fear that for my kids.
I love my kids, but I also want to get them out of my house.
That's a whole other story.
But look, that's where this election is going to be won or lost.
It's going to be on unifying the country behind this whole notion of who we are as Americans and this whole weaponization of the injustice system, as your dad likes to call it.
It's frightening.
I mean, look, I went into this whole Okay, I'm standing up for principle.
At least I'll be able to get a fair hearing on it.
But at every step of the way, including putting me in jail before my appeal was heard, they screwed me.
I mean, how do you go in front of a Democrat judge, an Obama appointee, married to a woman who works for one of the biggest Democrat lobbying firms and campaign contributions, and have him strip me of every single defense before I got to trial?
Just like your dad.
With Marshawn in New York, right?
It's like they beat you.
Peter, they're fining us a half a billion dollars, five hundred million dollars for paying back loans on time and with interest, where the alleged victim is literally testifying on our behalf, saying, what are you talking about?
We're not a victim.
Of course we do.
We're Deutsche Bank.
We do due diligence.
We we have to.
I mean, after after the O.A.
crash, after Sarbanes-Oxley, after all of the legislation to put like Can you imagine the class action lawsuit a bank would have if they didn't do due diligence themselves?
And yet, you get a judge that conveniently is obviously a radical leftist.
A judge that refuses to kick literally a billion dollar case to the commercial division that actually handles those things.
Someone who can say that Mar-a-Lago is worth 18 million dollars.
And you know, you can say what you want and I understand how their game is that most people can't fathom even an 18 million dollar home.
Try to buy a lot in Palm Beach on the ocean for less than a couple hundred million.
A quarter acre lot can go for $25 million or more.
A couple of the neighboring houses are half acre and they're on the market for $50-60 million.
Mar-a-Lago is almost 20 acres.
So most people can't fathom a billion-dollar home or a billion-dollar piece of land, but that's just the reality there, right?
But it doesn't matter.
That's thrown by the wayside.
Democrat judge?
Democrat jury.
I mean, your dad and I had so much in common in the sense that, like, so they go into Mar-a-Lago with their guns drawn.
They take me down with their guns drawn, Reagan Airport, right?
It's like, Marshawn strips him of all his defenses, Meda strips me of all defenses, and then the juries.
So you, for not talking to the January 6th committee, under appeal, they put you in shackles with guns drawn?
Guns drawn, yeah.
On what?
It's not even a violent offense.
It's not an offense at all, according to the Department of Justice policy.
Let's be clear about this.
George Washington gets on the floor of the Congress back in, I think it was, I don't know, 17...
Yeah.
or something like that, and the Jay Treaty, and he says, look, you can't, I can't command
a congressman to come to my office.
You can't command me to go to Congress.
Executive privilege was born, the doctrine of executive privilege.
The Supreme Court has zealously defended it because what you need in a White House is
candor and confidentiality.
Yeah, you need to be able to have a tough conversation without worrying about reading it on the front page of the Washington Post.
That's how you make serious decisions.
When wars are at stake, when lives are at stake, that matters.
You need to be able to do that, even if you're just playing out a scenario, playing out a war game, so to speak.
It's the bedrock of the constitutional separation of power.
You literally wouldn't be able to make a decision if you thought you were going to be liable.
And for 50 years, it's been the policy of the Department of Justice across party lines I don't know how much time we have but I do want to say J.D.
and it's my duty, my duty to tell them, no.
And they go forward with it.
And everybody who was involved in putting me behind bars was a Democrat.
I don't know how much time we have, but I do want to say J.D. Vance is a brilliant choice.
Thank you.
And what?
Give me give me your thoughts.
I mean, obviously.
So Peter just got out of prison today, but you can see he's already just back on action.
Myopic focus towards winning.
JD.
Executing the plan for America first.
That's awesome.
I love to see it.
Let me set this up first.
You've got pretty big balls, Peter.
I like it.
With a contrast between JD and Kamala, right?
You know that the only thing that Joe Biden ever asked her to do, the only thing significant he ever asked to do, It was to go down to the border and be the border czar and solve that problem.
She stuck up her nose in the air, smelled that stench coming across the Rio Grande, turned tail and ran back to the West Wing, never to be seen again, and unleashed the worst border crisis in the history of this country.
The fentanyl, the human trafficking, the child sex trafficking.
Islamic terrorists, Chinese spies, millions driving down the wages of black, brown, and blue-collar Americans.
I mean, go on and on and on.
If your father said to J.D.
Vance, Mr. Vice President, go down and solve that crisis for us, that he would have done anything other than solve that crisis, that soldier, he's that soldier.
Now, here's why I love J.D.
He and I, I've never met him, but we are two sides of the same coin.
When I was up at 30,000 feet, Don, Back in California in 2003, 4, and 5, getting ready to write The Coming China Wars, looking at what Communist China was doing after they entered the WTO, devastating the Midwest factories, okay?
I was up there documenting that.
J.D.
was on the ground.
Couldn't see him.
He was a speck.
His mother, his father, his friends, his colleagues, his community.
Feeling.
At the front lines, that heat.
So he understands viscerally what I understood from a research point of view.
And we both came to the conclusion, as did your father, that the best way for this country to prosper and be safe, be safe, is to have our manufacturing and defense industrial base here on home soil.
And I think that he is the key to Michigan, Pennsylvania, And Wisconsin, and Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin are the key to winning this election.
And what I hope to see... Oh, I think he's going to be critical when women hear his story.
Yes.
You know, Hillbilly Elgin.
When the youth sees that, hey, there is still a chance, it is... It's a great choice.
I think it's powerful.
It's a great choice.
And again, I think, you know, obviously it plays great in the Rust Belt, but more important than what I love, the number one thing is that He's a young guy.
He's a young guy that can take that America First movement forward to that next generation.
You get 12 years of MAGA, not four, and a reversion back to neocon, warmongering bullshit, America Last policy, which is what we've seen from the Democrats.
And honestly, it's what we'd see from half of the Republicans in Congress and certainly in the Senate.
Uh, you know, I'm super psyched about that.
Peter, I'm very excited about your speech.
I know you do have to go.
You're my brother, man.
You're my brother.
Guys, make sure to check out New MAGA Deal by Peter Navarro.
It's the plan for what we should be doing in the next administration by someone who understands it, by someone who's been persecuted.
We're pushing that agenda.
You can get it on 45books.com.
Go to 45books.com, newmagadeal.com.
Either way, check it out.
What a great job you guys did in terms of direction.
Listen, like I said, Peter had a publisher who was doing a book.
The second they brought him back to court, these guys dropped him like a dog because that's what it is.
And that's why so much of this show, I talk about that.
We have to stick up for ourselves.
We have to support the businesses that share our values.
You do that by voting with your wallet, whether it's, you know, getting on, you know, guys like Public Square, one of the great sponsors of this show.
You know, check it out on publicsquare.com or download the Public Square app.
You can find those businesses that share your values.
If you're a business, you can list your business on Public Square so other great patriots can find your business.
But we actually have to make that effort to find each other, to support each other, to keep things going.
Uh, because, because that's a really big deal.
And, you know, if we take out some of that money from that woke beast, uh, that's a huge win for America right now.
So, Peter, I just want to thank you for, uh... Thank you for your support.
I literally can't believe... Peter Navarro was in prison this morning.
And he's here right now, ready to fight, ready to go.
I mean, that's impressive, man.
It's impressive.
I think we've seen some pretty big feats of guts and balls this week, but I think that's a big one, too.
It pales in comparison to your dad taking a bullet and getting right up and fight, fight, fight, and getting here on Monday.
Just win, baby.
I look forward to it.
I'll probably watch your speech a little late because I'm still going to be live here, but I'm going to have to check it out.
Guys, NumagaDeal.com, 45books.com.
Check out Peter's book.
Support him and the guys like him.
Give my best to your better half, too.
I will do that, buddy.
I got my better half right here.
I know.
You met her?
Good to see you.
She's my fiancée.
She's my rock.
She went down and visited you every weekend and every chance she got.
That's pretty good.
I gotta thank your brother, too, because what she would do, because she was way far away, she'd come down and stay at the Doral Saturday night so she could see me Saturday and Sunday and Mick Allen, all the folks there, and they treated her just like the princess.
I love her to be.
The princess that she is, right?
Yes, yes.
Very nice, very nice.
This is family here.
It's our pleasure, buddy.
Thank you for everything that you do.
Bye, brother.
I know you gotta get to work.
Peter's getting on the floor.
I'm going to the floor later on tonight.
I see the guy coming on.
I'm your warm-up bag, brother.
Well, yeah, we got Mike Davis, Devin Nunez coming up shortly.
Well, we had everyone.
We got Michael Waltz, so it's going to be a good one.
That's actually perfect because we need more guys that can talk because I'm starting to lose my voice because I've live streamed like 39 hours in the last two days.
It's, you know, almost brutal.
I want to know one thing, though.
Is it Davis and Nunes or is it Nunes and Davis?
How do you build that?
Because those two guys are powerhouses.
It's trouble.
It's trouble.
But yeah, two great guys.
Be good, Peter.
Thank you.
Go crush it, Peter.

And with that, I think we're bringing on some guests.
So, now joining me three, Article Three Project founder, Mike Davis, along with Congressman, Army, Green Beret veteran, Michael Waltz.
We also have Truth Social CEO, the big boss, Devin Nunes.
So, we're gonna... Hey, Michael, move your ass.
I introduced you a little while ago.
What do you think you are, a congressman or something like that?
This is bullshit, okay?
Acting like I'm in the army.
What's going on?
Guys, we were just talking with Peter Navarro.
I'm sure, Devin, you probably dealt with Peter when you were back in Congress, before you went over to the Truth Social.
You know, a great guy, but a victim of Democrat lawfare.
He was one of the, I mean, they just, under appeal, still put him in prison.
Four months.
How do we make sure Joe Biden doesn't continue to weaponize the DOJ from now until January?
How do we stop that?
I'm going to you, Waltz, because you're actually in Congress.
It's all Waltz.
Devin, you can't do crap.
Devin, you're corporate now.
He was a victim of it.
Devin was the only guy that understood That Russia, Russia, Russia was a hoax.
He demonstrably proved it, and it didn't matter.
They vilified him.
They leaked stuff on him.
It was pretty brutal.
But it's always fun, though, to... The best leak, though, was when you were down in our committee being interviewed, and before you even got... You got out for a break, and there was already fake news that has out there.
Well, no, but they took my phone, so I didn't even know, but I got out at, like, 7.30 that night after, like, 10 hours of testimony, and I'm scrolling back throughout the day on Twitter, and, like, literally, you know, bathroom break was at 9.30.
932.
It was Adam Schiff, obviously.
You mean you actually complied with a subpoena?
I know.
It's hard to believe.
It's hard to believe.
I hate to admit this, but I was the one who subpoenaed him.
But you complied.
I did comply.
I did 50 hours of testimony.
But during that investigation, we subpoenaed everybody because we didn't have anything to hide.
Right?
I mean, we wanted everybody to come forward and give testimony.
And, you know, ironically, you and everybody else that was involved, well, not involved because it was a hoax, all of the Trump people came in.
You know, the FBI refused, most of them refused to come in.
It wasn't until later that we found out most of the agents that were involved.
And that was through some of the work that Chuck Grassley did and others.
And it was a sad state of affairs, but sorry about that.
You worked for Grassley, right?
I did.
Obviously, as a legal guy, what do you think we can do to prevent that from happening?
It just doesn't matter.
They just control all of that.
They're willing to do it, even if there's not an explicit ask.
The DOJ knows to be the lapdog, whether it's they're protecting Hunter Biden, whether they're protecting Joe Biden, whether they're protecting Jill Biden, all the other Bidens that are on CCP payrolls.
It's shocking, because I know it would be a real problem if it was me, and yet, you know, if it's not going to be enforced, what's the purpose of even having these laws?
Let's look at President Biden's campaign strategy.
It is to label your father a fascist dictator who must be stopped at all costs.
Yeah.
And then you have a Biden Justice Department and these Biden Democrat prosecutors and lawyers who have tried to bankrupt him.
They've tried to put him in prison for the rest of his life.
They've tried to take him off the ballot, and one of his opponents just tried to kill him.
It was by the grace of God.
One centimeter and one millisecond would be a much different place today.
Saturday is directly on Biden's doorstep, right?
His rhetoric, his campaign strategy, where Trump is a fascist dictator who must be stopped at all costs.
That led to Saturday.
I know that's controversial, but I don't care.
What needs to happen By the way, it's not controversial.
It's common sense.
They try to beat him every which way.
They tried to impeach him twice.
They've tried to bankrupt him.
They've tried to take away his businesses.
They've constantly tried to jail him.
One of those offenses literally carries the death penalty possibly with it.
Yeah.
What's next in the natural evolution?
I was on with Bongino and Tucker Carlson last night on Dan's podcast.
They were on mine, and then we rolled into theirs, so I can't remember which one we were talking about.
But, like, of course that was next.
Like, you know, Tucker, Dan, they all said it.
This was a couple months ago.
Like, of course that's, and they were ridiculed, and you're a conspiracy theorist, and I did this.
Like, of course that could happen.
Like, what are you talking about?
Like, of course it leads to that.
They've dehumanized someone.
I mean, who wouldn't go back and kill baby Hitler if you knew it was coming?
You'd almost have a moral obligation to.
And so they've created that where they've allowed that to happen.
But what you guys don't know, I started this show 20 minutes early because Marsha Blackburn just came in here, Senator from Tennessee, and she goes, I just got off a call with the head of the Secret Service, with some of the people I guess at DOJ or FBI, and They knew at 551, there was a dude with a rangefinder and a suspicious bag, I guess, that was marked.
At 553, they knew that person was on a rooftop.
My father went on to the stage at 6 p.m.
So nine minutes after they knew there was a credible threat, they still let him go on the stage.
Then he was on the stage for 11 minutes before the first shots were fired.
I know because I've seen it.
They pulled him off a stage when they once heard about a possible threat somewhere else.
They didn't actually have a witness.
They didn't have a thing.
They just got a note and they weren't sure.
How?
They let him go on.
Like, I was pissed off for the last couple days.
This is now worse.
They wouldn't take Marsha's questions.
You know, hit pound two to ask a question.
They wouldn't take Marsha's question.
They didn't take Ted Cruz's question.
They didn't take Mike Lee's question.
All Republican, strong Republicans.
I wonder why.
I wonder why.
No, we were on the call.
They had a house call as well.
Because like, you know, I thought they figured it out, you know, once he started speaking and they were like, I'm like, oh my God, they let him go on the stage.
That caused someone's life to end, because that guy wasn't going to shoot if Trump wasn't on the stage.
He was waiting for Trump.
Right.
By letting that happen, even though we were blessed to miss my father, a great American lost their lives, and that's on those guys.
No, that's right.
What's unclear, and when you say they knew, it was the local law enforcement that was new.
It was unclear if that was immediately communicated to the team, because as you know, the protocol is, gun, gun, guns.
They're on it in a second.
Hold or pull them immediately.
And so, The communication back to the core close-in protection is still unclear.
But Don, I think this is a wholly different issue.
There's the weaponization that we've seen of throwing everything they've got at them.
This is a different kind of weaponization.
I'm going to throw out their weaponization by denial and let other people Yeah.
Well, some of your colleagues have done that.
I mean, there are nine or eleven Democrat congressmen that wanted to sign this legislation right now to literally strip my father of his Secret Service detail.
What purpose?
Clinton still has a detail.
Any living president still has a detail.
They want to strip... What else could they possibly expect happens of that?
But here's what's going to come out.
They're encouraging that weakness to allow this to happen.
We have Cheadle coming to the Oversight Committee on Monday.
We had to subpoena her.
She wouldn't come voluntarily.
So just leave that for what it is.
But the buck stops with her, right?
She said that.
Oh yeah, of course.
Although I'm staying, even though the investigation's not over.
Is they budget for a former protections detail?
And that's it.
Whether it's Jimmy Carter sitting in an old folks home, or whether it's your father who has multiple residences, rallies every week, high level of threat.
And when they kept, these are what the agents are telling me, when they kept requesting more, what they got back from the headquarters is, we're not going to fund all these extra agents for all of his extra rallies.
That's not in our budget.
And so that makes then the core protective detail relying on local law enforcement and
God bless them, but they are not trained to the same level.
It's different.
I've had a Secret Service detail.
I understand exactly what they do, but they're training for that .02 percent.
Most law enforcement, regular law enforcement, they're not thinking about snipers.
That's not what they do on a day-to-day basis.
They're not thinking about securing something.
Listen, let's be honest.
We've been to a ton of rallies.
I love our law enforcement, but they love your dad.
Half of them, I've looked over.
You know how many selfies I've taken this week?
Law enforcement guys are like, can we do it?
Rather than facing out and watching the perimeter, they're watching and laughing with their dad.
Let's be honest.
Let's be candid.
The other part I'd love you to find out, perhaps, because you're right.
A former president gets a certain level of protection, whether it's Jimmy Carter in an old age home, Trump, young, vibrant, everywhere.
But it's different now because Trump has also been the presumptive nominee of the Republican Party now for like six months.
That's different, right?
That doesn't fit in the bureaucrat's formula.
The second that happens though, they beef these things up.
When you're the presumptive nominee of the major party, There's an automatic extra.
It doesn't just change, you know, the other day when Eric and I got to throw the floor to the delegation to throw him over the delegate count to make him the official.
Once it's known that he's official, that's when that kicks in.
Because I saw that last time around, okay?
When he was president, it was, you know, obviously a huge detail.
But in 2016, when he became the presumptive nominee, that detail grew.
He had a detail before he was that, but it was a smaller footprint.
Once he was the guy, it changes.
Watch, next week, you're gonna see, because it fits into their little box formula, regardless of the magnitude of the threat, domestic threat, foreign threat.
The Iranian threat, by the way, has been around for years.
Robert O'Brien, his national security advisor, is now public.
Many of us have known this and been fighting with the service about it.
Had his pulled completely regardless of the threat.
And so, what I'm gonna do next week and go down to Devin's old skiff, And say, show me the new salacious Iranian threat.
I think it's a head fake.
I think it's completely a head fake.
Well, by the way, it wouldn't surprise me.
I said, I got a lot of crap the other day or yesterday.
I can't, I've done so much live stream.
I don't even know.
But I basically said like, you mean there's a credible threat from Iran?
By the way, we had one cause I knew about it because I had a secret service detail when my father was president.
Uh, there was a credible threat of them trying to go after the family.
That was real.
I was told that.
Uh, but.
Isn't that sort of like a great endorsement?
Like when your biggest enemies don't want you to become president, when they want to make sure you, isn't that like, doesn't it almost tell you everything you need to know about?
Like, I'm like, I don't know.
Like they want Joe Biden to be president because he'll be weak on them.
He'll let them make billions.
He'll pull off all the sanctions.
Uh, it's sort of lunacy, right?
Well, for me, what, what's the Iranian threat has only gotten worse because of the open border.
I mean, even when I was still in Congress, I went down to the border a couple times.
As a matter of fact, Mike, I think you and I were together.
But we had people from every damn country around the planet just walking through.
Well, the sleeper cells are scary, Devin.
There's got to be sleeper cells.
There's an Iranian sleeper cell.
Maybe multiple Iranian sleeper cells.
And there's probably sleeper cells from all kinds of countries.
Well, guys, we got some breaking news.
Mike, I'm going to actually ask you about this one because you'll be able to get it.
Well, I'll go to Davis on this one because he'll go a little bit more conspiratorial because I think it's obvious.
But we have breaking news.
Joe Biden apparently has tested positive for COVID.
Here we go again.
And by the way, it's ahead of major conferences overseas.
Now, I have my opinion of why maybe Maybe Joe Biden didn't really get COVID, but maybe they don't want him on a world stage anymore.
Mike, I'd love your thoughts on this one, because have at it.
Have at it, Mike.
I think Joe Biden tested positive for dementia, right?
And if they don't want him on the stage because he's going to go up there... And so much more, by the way.
It's like, you know... Maybe he'll have to sit on the stage too long.
He doesn't have diapers to last that long.
Who knows?
But this guy is clearly not fit to be the president.
of the United States.
I mean, this guy can't get on a world stage without embarrassing us.
Yeah.
But, Mike, we saw, you know, Judge Cannon, the rule in Florida the other day, that Jack Smith improperly appointed as counsel and, you know, threw out the documents case.
Kind of a big one, because that was one that a lot of people actually feared was the most dangerous.
That was the one where the FBI's hostage rescue team had to kick in the doors at Mar-a-Lago, guns a-blazin', you know, because the host—it's like using SEAL Team 6 to, like, you know, take your kid to kindergarten.
Seems aggressive, but What does that mean?
What does that mean?
Why did that happen?
Explain it to sort of, you know, in non-legalese terms.
Like, how do I tell that to like a four-year-old so that people understand what it means?
And what are the implications on some of the other cases?
What does that do to Jack Smith in DC and the others?
So Judge Cannon correctly said that the Office of Special Counsel is unconstitutional because in order for there to be officers of the United States, they have to be created by Congress.
And they also have to be funded by Congress.
What they've done with this special counsel is after Ken started his investigation of Clinton, the Office of Independent Counsel created by Congress was intentionally allowed to lapse because people were upset about the Starr investigation.
Well, the Justice Department did not like that, and so they tried to do an end-run around Congress and create the special counsel through fiat, through regulation.
Well, that violates the Constitution.
It violates the Appointment Clause of the Constitution, where the president must Nominate, the Senate must confirm, the President must appoint officers of the United States, and it also violates the Appropriations Clause, where Congress has to fund these, and these special counsel through this fiat essentially has an unlimited budget.
So this special counsel investigation in Florida is gone.
If they want to bring new charges, go through a U.S.
attorney.
Yeah, so that's the question.
You can't make up positions.
Yeah.
You can't just make them up.
Can I make a prediction on the COVID?
Yeah.
This is going to be Biden basement 2.0.
This is going to be the longest case of COVID.
It's going to be a four-month case.
When you say long COVID, this is really freaking long COVID.
This is the path back to the basement.
Don't take him out in public.
We may see him emerge on like January or November 6th.
So I have a couple of questions for Mike Davis.
So on the documents hoax, The, you know, the famous picture where the FBI spread out those documents all over the ground.
The doctored evidence.
Yeah.
Doctored evidence.
I mean, that's exactly, I mean, that was like planting evidence.
I mean, just, I mean, 101, I would think.
I mean, if that was not how they found him, then, then why would they spread him out and do that?
I mean, that should have been, and I don't know if the judge ever ruled, but the second question would be to build on that is how does it impact the J6 cases, which are already mucked up?
But this should also impact them also, right?
Yeah, so Judge Cannon's decision is binding on the Southern District of Florida.
It's persuasive for Judge Chuckin in D.C.
and Judge Chuckin is a radical Obama judge and there's no way in hell she's going to dismiss this case.
She limited her scope to basically...
That case, right?
It also gets rid of a lot of testimony and stuff like that, doesn't it?
Here's the bigger problem.
Jack Smith, along with Bragg up in New York, they used evidence that the Supreme Court said they can't use.
They just used evidence of President Trump's conversations with his top White House advisors.
In his official capacity.
That's right.
It's subject to presidential immunity, so that's why Mershawn has to declare a mistrial in New York.
He won't, because he's a hack.
But he has to declare a mistrial in New York.
If he does not declare a mistrial, Trump can very quickly get that case up to the Supreme Court of the United States and there's no doubt in my mind they're going to rule for Trump on that.
With Judge Cannon's case, that case is done.
Judge Chutkan's case, there's not much of a case left.
After the Fisher decision on January 6th, two of the four charges are largely gutted.
It's on obstruction, where Jack Smith misapplied a post-Enron obstruction of justice statute to go after corporate fraud, to go after Trump and his January 6th supporters.
Half of the case is gutted there and then probably another 30% is gutted because of presidential immunity, right?
That you can't charge a president criminally for his official acts, just like you can't charge judges or members of Congress, right?
And so the whole case may have to be thrown out because remember, Jack Smith also presented evidence to the grand jury that was subject to presidential immunity.
immunity. So they may have to have that whole case kicked.
The bottom line is this, they came at Trump with everything they had legally and Trump beat him,
right? He dodged the legal bullet, he dodged the actual bullet, he's going to be, he's going to
win in a landslide on November 5th, he's going to get back into the White House on January 20th
and his acting attorney general should dismiss these charges on day one, fire Jack Smith
and open their own investigation.
His acting attorney general?
No, I'm going to be the viceroy, Don.
You're going to get me in trouble.
I don't want to be accountable to courts or Congress.
I want to be the viceroy.
Mike Davis will likely never be Attorney General because I'd say... Come in a little hot on Twitter.
Yeah, come in a little hot.
I think you're right, actually, but the problem is with all the rhinos in the Senate, you're getting the one obligatory head nod from Chuck Grassley.
I will say that.
I was the chief counsel for nominations.
I know how the process works.
Uh, and I have a 0% chance I would get one vote, a pity vote from Chuck Grassley, my former boss, and it would ruin his 65-year political career.
So, I'm just gonna be the viceroy.
But, you know, honestly, I think given the weaponization that we've seen, uh, Devin, that you've, you've witnessed, you've, they've done it to you even as well, and they've, you know, they stonewalled you from actually getting an investigation done as it related to Russia-Russia.
Mike, who, who is someone That would be tough enough to do that, but is also confirmable.
Who, who would your list of, you know, who would your top three be?
I mean, I think you put him, you put him in as acting because then you get, you get someone more aggressive naturally because they just want to get that guy the hell out of that job.
Because, uh, there are many good people who I really like is Mark Paoletta, who used to be, uh, one of president Trump's top lawyers in the white house.
He's fantastic.
He he's like, you know, he's probably in his late fifties.
He has a great family, great wife, great kids.
He doesn't need the money.
He doesn't need to go get a job after he does the job.
He knows how the process works.
He's very close to Justice Clarence Thomas.
The guy's a savage.
He'd be great for the job.
He'd have a fiery confirmation, but it would not be epic like my confirmation would be.
My failed confirmation would be.
It would be epic.
They would come after me and I would love it.
It would be fantastic.
I also like Jeff Clark.
He might have a hard time getting confirmed, but he would be a fantastic White House counsel.
There are so many good people who could fill these jobs because we have a good bench, right?
The other side does not have a good bench.
Congressman Wallace, you were with the 13 Gold Star families from the Afghan withdrawal, that disaster at Abbey Gate.
Talk about... How do those people feel?
Given just how... I'm going to talk about them tonight.
Oh, that's great.
You're speaking tonight as well?
I'm talking about right after Kimberly, Hard Act to Follow.
Okay.
And then just before you.
Oh, wow.
If you're going to be talking about that, that's going to be... I'm going to talk about her father with them.
And the compassionate leader, the commander-in-chief that I saw, the one that's not checking his watch as the caskets go by, the one that's not making it all about him like Biden did at Dover, according to these families.
And according to these families, he walked up and said, my son died in combat too.
I mean, she said it was all she could do, just nothing.
It's so insane.
I know you have a heart out, because you're actually going to go give that speech shortly.
And I know they're kicking you out.
I think that you have to wrap for that speech.
But I got to tell you, I just sat with the families this morning, and one of the moms just broke down.
And she said the time she spent with President Trump healed her.
Those are her words.
She found it healing.
You know, I will say, you guys actually know this, you've spent enough time with him behind the scenes, like,
I, and I will say, like, his biggest political sort of liability is actually not Twitter or something like that,
it's, it's that he has so much real empathy.
Yeah.
He doesn't like to show it because he thinks like, you know, Putin's watching and it looks like weakness.
He's old school that way.
You know what I mean?
It's like, I'm like, yeah, you know, so I'm glad you're going to highlight it as a little, you know, I guess little breaking news.
Uh, my daughter actually, uh, my daughter Kai called me yesterday morning and like, it's like 7am I'm going on to whatever TV I was doing.
And she goes, I got to speak at the RNC.
I'm like, wait, what?
Like, she's just never given a speech in her life.
I'm like, you want to get in front of like live and from 35,000 people and like millions?
That's your opening act?
She's like...
Yeah, I feel really strongly about it.
After what I went through this weekend, I was like, called my dad.
He's like 100% like, you know, so I was like, here, take some of my time.
So so that that should be, you know, that should be pretty cool.
I mean, I was just impressed.
I was like, that just takes balls.
I was like, that's a young kid who's never, you know, going into her junior year of high school is like you're gonna speak in front of that's your first speech.
So I'm pretty impressed.
But I know you got to get out of here, man.
Thank you so much.
I can't wait to hear that.
And see that I'm sure it means the world to those families who are Uh, left out there that way.
So with that, Devin, with that, Devin, tell us a little bit about truth social.
We got to, we got to hear about this.
Obviously, uh, you know, a lot going on where we always talk about sort of the parallel economy, obviously rumbles a big part of that.
If you want to slide over, maybe it's easier, but, uh, but you know, you, you were intimately involved in the, in the, you were actually on rumble before me.
Uh, I think, I think I was number three, like verified user.
You may have been number one.
Bungino was number two.
Uh, because you knew what they were doing to you on YouTube when you were right.
And you had all the clearances and you were a member of Congress and on an intelligence committee.
I mean, and it didn't matter.
They're still going to censor you.
To be, to be fair, I was actually number two on Rumble because it was myself and all the funny animal bits.
So when Rumble first got started, I think Chris will tell you this, they kind of, they were just beta testing, getting going.
So they put, they were putting a bunch of funny animal videos on there.
So when I was shadow banned by YouTube.
I mean, I had my little podcast and you couldn't actually find my podcast even though it was simply named Devin Nunes Podcast.
You couldn't find it on YouTube.
Very complicated.
It's like when I search my handle on Meta and it's like I'm on page 12 with my exact handle in there.
On those weeks where I'm not necessarily behaving and the algorithm decides to punish me greatly and no one can find me or see my stuff.
Let's get that up right now.
Yeah, we're going to work on that.
We're going to work on that.
So, you know, it's a great story because we just looked around for just some other platform.
That would just, I just wanted it so you could type in my name and my freaking videos would come up.
That was it.
That's all.
And I, I called Chris and you know, at, at first I remember Chris said he thought he was under investigation by the house intelligence committee.
And then afterwards he, he realized he probably is now he wasn't then.
Cause we actually had, uh, you, you were in charge of it then.
I think you're good.
But then I, and then I, uh, you know, it was, we just wanted to work.
And, um, you know, what was amazing is, is that, you know, nobody had ever heard of rumble.
Uh, and in three weeks I had 35,000 followers.
And then, you know, three months I had over 300,000 followers.
So that's how much I was in YouTube.
I had, I don't know, like 8,000 followers.
So, you know, clearly there was a need for free speech.
That's what, that's when I really learned that these free speech platforms are so critically important because the other platforms are, are like what you just said on meta.
And don't forget, I mean, another report came out today.
from Media Research Center that Twitter, no matter, your dad and I, we all have supported Elon getting a hold
of Twitter, but they're still suppressing conservatives on there
because of the algorithms.
And so look, I mean we're proud of what we built. Don's on the board,
I'm sure everybody knows, but we have a great team.
We're launching streaming to give places like Real America's Voice, Newsmax, OAN, all of these
that can't get onto traditional cable.
So there's a lot of exciting things that we're doing, but none of us wanted to be in this position.
When I say none of us, you didn't need to sit on a board, I didn't need a job, and your dad sure as hell didn't need a company.
I'm just going to get sued and be in front of the SEC, because I'm basically a professional witness at this stage of my life.
That's what I do.
I get subpoenaed.
Wonderful.
But look, it's a fabulous company.
I enjoy every day because every day we get up and we're fighting the bad guys.
Well guys, it just came out that Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries worked together closely to delay the virtual nomination of Joe Biden.
I mean, I don't know what... I don't know why they need to do it virtual, but, you know, I guess they're still... Is he going to be ready by the Democrat convention?
Well, they got like a month.
It's the COVID, Rebecca, it's COVID.
Yeah, it's COVID.
So they obviously want to buy time to replace Joe.
Do you think they will?
Do you think they can?
I mean, can they just delay the nomination?
How does that work?
Even legalese, right?
I'm sure there are bylaws with the Democrat Party that you have to follow certain protocols.
I've been in Milwaukee here for almost two weeks working on the Trump RNC convention.
I worked on the platform committee.
I helped with the rules committee.
I've been here, you know, being a media whore.
I'll tell you that President Trump has the Republican Party strong and united.
You compare that to the Democrat Party that is weak and in chaos.
They're divided, right?
And so this is a very bad side for Biden.
The problem is that The Democrats are stuck with Joe Biden legally, financially, and politically.
Legally, the Democrats are beyond the filing deadline to get someone else on the ballot.
Financially, Joe Biden has $100 million plus in hard money, and he can't just hand that over to any other candidate besides Kamala Harris.
It would become soft money that's not as effective.
And politically, How the hell do they skip over the first black and first female vice president to bring in Gavin Newsom or something like that?
They're stuck with Joe Biden.
I think their strategy is going to be to shelter in place.
They know that they look at the polling and they see Biden's going to get beat by like two or three points.
Kamala's going to get beat by three or four points.
And they're trying to mitigate their down ballot losses by sticking with Joe Biden.
Well, it's sort of interesting.
I mean, everyone said, hey, after Saturday, you guys got this in the bag.
It's like, I don't think anything's in the bag.
Yeah.
OK, because, you know, again, I don't think there's any decency on the other side.
I don't think they care that if Joe Biden wins, even barely, no one's going to believe it was real.
The entire faith in the system will be destroyed.
I don't think they care.
They only care about power.
I think they've shown that, right?
With the lengths they've been willing to do.
You saw what they did to Peter Navarro, who was on the show earlier.
I mean, it doesn't stop.
So, you know, I guess that's the question.
I don't want anyone to ever take their foot off the gas.
I don't want anyone to assume anything's in the bag.
Nothing is in the bag.
Not even a little bit.
We got to go full bore.
I mean, Devin, you've dealt with this as someone who's run for office many times.
You're from California as a conservative, and, you know, you lived in a conservative area of California.
But, uh, I guess that's right.
They're trying to protect that downed ballot.
And I think, you know, honestly, if you would have asked me six weeks ago, just because of the nature of the cycle, just because of, frankly, the redistricting maps that, you know, of course, you know, weak state legislators or radical Democrat state legislature, like I was sort of of the mindset that we're probably losing the House almost anyway.
Again, most of that redistricting, not because of fact, not because of anything, but they play that game more aggressively.
They play it more viciously.
They play it smarter, better, whatever you want to say.
Feels a little different now.
It feels a little different now.
At the end of the day, it really comes down to the state we sit in right now.
Yeah.
Just to the, across the pond here, across the lake, right?
Into Michigan and then Pennsylvania.
We gotta win one of those.
That's what it comes down to.
One of those three.
I think everything else I feel pretty good about.
Georgia and Arizona.
I mean, I think those, you know, the polling's really broken away.
I think it's tough for them to even cheat their way through that.
But look, it's going to come down to this city.
It's going to come down to Milwaukee.
That's why J.D.
was such a good pick.
Such a good pick, because he helps seal the deal for President Trump.
You obviously didn't overlap with J.D.
while you were in Congress, but have you spent any time with him?
Yeah, I have.
I've met with him on the technology issues.
We've worked together.
I mean, I say worked together, but when he got into the Senate, I kept him abreast of what was going on.
And of course, he was actually one of the first investors in Rumble.
Yeah, he was one of the first investors in Rumble.
I was one of the first people to be on Rumble with the animals, with the funny animals, but then I think JD Vance was one of the first investors.
So, look, I think he needs to get in a bus and basically go between Milwaukee to Madison to Detroit to all over parts of Michigan and into the rural parts of Pennsylvania and, you know, and speak to the people that he grew up with.
Yeah.
Yes, you got to hear this one because it's a it's a funny Although, I guess not even shocking story.
The New York Post reported this week that an illegal immigrant was arrested in Miami, crossed the border illegally in October of 2021, but he was released by ICE because, and I'm quoting here, because he was overweight.
Is there any, I mean, so you can be a criminal, you can get arrested, you can do this, but is there any, like, can it just be like that?
He smiled, he was nice to me, so we let him go.
I mean, is there any enforcement of any of these laws at this point?
I mean, it seems like the most ridiculous excuse in the history of excuses.
I'm getting a little tubby myself, so maybe I, is that a get-out-of-jail-free card?
I'm getting sick.
I had knee surgery like five weeks ago, and I haven't been able to really work out.
Like, I gained like 20 pounds.
I'm like, I don't know.
But I have a feeling if they arrested me, they would deport me.
They would.
If they arrested me, like, I'd be at Gitmo for a while because they'd have to, you know, get me a...
It's amazing.
It's amazing.
But guys, make sure everyone, by the way, that you're watching, I know we're doing a bunch of random shows this week and popping on at random times, but make sure you're liking, you're sharing, you're subscribing, you're downloading the Rumble app, so when I do do one of these random sort of not part of the regular schedule shows, you get to see it.
Stay tuned for all the Rumble coverage of the RNC.
Guys, are we also going to cover my speech live tonight?
If you're on this channel, you're watching it there.
We'll cover my speech tonight.
Like I said, I have a special guest, my 17-year-old daughter.
I mean, I'm just, like, as a dad, I'm just, like, proud dad moment.
I don't even know how she'll do.
But, like, to have the balls at 17, be like, I don't care.
I want to speak.
That's pretty ballsy.
Yeah, she walked out to that arena.
She's like, wow, that's pretty big.
I was like, yeah.
But she really, after Saturday, she was with me when I had that, you know, when I got the call.
I took her fishing.
We got that call, like, your dad's been shot, and she's like, well, what?
Like, you know, like, I don't know.
We didn't know anything for like 90 minutes.
And, you know, I think she was pretty shook, but also just what a fighter to get her to just come back and like, OK, you know, I haven't been vocal.
I haven't been about this.
It's not even political.
It's just about, you know, her grandpa, you know, the grandpa that's been vilified and dehumanized and all that.
So that'll be a fun one.
So we'll cover that here as well.
Devin, you speaking?
Nope.
Just on your show.
Just on the show.
Okay, good.
Well, you know... Stay back in the shadows.
