People that are scrambling, trying to protect their ever-shrinking share of what they have are foolish.
It's all going.
It's all going away.
This country is being ripped apart and raped and looted.
We're being slowly poisoned and in some cases quickly murdered and assassinated.
And we're killing ourselves every day, inadvertently, with the kinds of things that we eat and breathe and drink and see.
People have got to start to radically begin to obey their conscience and tell the truth and do the right thing.
People have got to start to get courageous.
And this is the time for everybody to turn and look to God and to pray and to ask for strength and to ask for wisdom to get through this time and to transform and sanctify this country.
And the alternative is that there will be no country.
Is it really only as big as low gas prices?
Is it really only so big as bringing inflation and gas prices and the corporate tax rate back down?
It's not about waiting for someone to come in and change the policy and make it better.
It's a personal decision that we all have to make to become soldiers of Christ.
No one's allowed to say that the blood is a quintessential part of this, that the blood of our people is something that is essential.
That we are different.
that america was different because we are different palantir is an ai data analytics company
They use artificial intelligence to look at vast amounts of data and create insights.
If the government has an amount of data which is kind of unimaginable, if you've got every phone call, every email, every transaction, every photograph of a license plate on the highway, satellite data, it's too much data for a bureaucracy to sift through.
Palantir comes in and interprets the data using algorithms, using artificial intelligence, using software to make vast amounts of data usable.
That's what they are.
And so many of the people that worked with Elon that came into the government through Doge worked with Palantir.
Now that Doge is finished, Palantir seems to be just getting started.
If we don't have freedom on the internet in the age of AI, we are going to be mind raped every day forever.
Think about anything you've ever said or done in the vicinity of your phone's camera or microphone, everything you've ever put into your phone, and even things that are not necessarily so scandalous, but even things like your favorite restaurants, your geo location, because your phone also has a GPS.
They know where you are at all times.
They know where you go and when.
They know what you buy.
They have access to your bank account.
AI will literally know everything about you.
Everyone you know, your relationship to them, your tastes, your preferences, your habits, your whereabouts, your routines, your schedule, when you're asleep.
They know how much REM sleep you're getting.
They know your resting heart rate.
They know how many calories you consume.
Think about the ways that they can manipulate you.
You have a computer in your refrigerator, computer in your car, computer in your home security system, computer in your everything, computer in your clothes, your watch, your glasses, your VR headset, your alarm clock.
You have a smart home, economy of things.
It's like total, like, rape of everybody by the system forever.
My life is like a first-person video game, you know?
People that are scrambling, trying to protect their ever-shrinking share of what they have are foolish.
It's all going.
It's all going away.
This country is being ripped apart and raped and looted.
We're being slowly poisoned and in some cases quickly murdered and assassinated.
And we're killing ourselves every day.
Inadvertently, with the kinds of things that we eat and breathe and drink and see.
People have got to start to radically begin to obey their conscience and tell the truth and do the right thing.
People have got to start to get courageous.
And this is the time for everybody to turn and look to God and to pray and to ask for strength and to ask for wisdom to get through this time and to transform and sanctify this country.
And the alternative is that there will be no country.
Is it really only as big as low gas prices?
Is it really only so big as bringing inflation and gas prices and the corporate tax rate back down?
It's not about waiting for someone to come in and change the policy and make it better.
It's a personal decision that we all have to make to become soldiers of Christ.
Because they voted for Kamala Harris.
People do not stab young girls on trains because they're born black.
People do not shoot Palestinians in the back of the head or cheer it on just because they're Jewish.
The people that do this are lost.
They have to be isolated and segregated out.
A new consensus must emerge.
Are you in favor of a society with meaning?
A society where life is sacred.
Where life has sanctity, where people's lives and their dignity and their integrity is respected?
Or are we going to live in a society that is a never-ending war between nihilistic tribes, warlords, savages, pagans?
I see an emerging consensus.
And I think that the mature people that actually love America, actually love our children, the people that recognize the division, the peril that we're in, we need to fortify a new consensus and rally the people of conscience, the people of decency, the people of humanity, the people of charity towards their fellow man,
against those that want to kill us, against those that laugh and celebrate when innocent people are harmed.
For any reason, for any ideological reason.
Against the people that are cruel, the people that are hateful.
And by that, I mean the people that are really cruel.
Not the people that say things you disagree with, not the people that are provocative, not the people that are sometimes angry, but the people that are really cruel and really evil.
What makes Christianity and Christ so different from the other religions is that our religion is based on the bearing of suffering for the sake of even those that persecute us.
An unconditional, absolute standard of love for all of God's children, even those that are misguided, even those that persecute us, even the most heinous among us.
That is what makes us different.

Canary Mission is an Israeli-funded blacklist, which since July 2025 has been confirmed to be used by the Trump administration to target students, professors, and professionals who oppose Israel and reside in the United States.
This idea is part of an initiative created by the Heritage Foundation, the same group responsible for the infamous Project 2025.
In their initiative, titled Project Esther, they state that students participating in pro-Palestinian protests and activism are supporting Hamas, a group that the United States designates as a foreign terrorist organization.
Therefore, pro-Palestinian students are considered to be supporting terrorism and are subject to the revocation of visas, frozen bank accounts, asset seizures, and the denial of basic constitutional rights.
In effect, the Canary mission serves as a means to circumvent constitutional protections, allowing the federal government to engage in intelligence gathering activities that would otherwise be considered unlawful.
But the Canary mission is not alone.
Palantir, another company closely aligned with the state of Israel, uses AI-driven analytics to maintain private databases on U.S. citizens and currently works with four federal agencies.
While government contracting with the private sector is long-standing, the prominent influence of Jewish groups within these increasingly powerful organizations warrants careful examination.
I renew the call for all able-bodied young American men, all of our elite human capital, all of our geniuses, warriors, intelligent people to dedicate themselves to American sovereignty and independence.
As Christians, as Americans, as white people, as citizens of the United States, and anybody that settles for anything less is just as much of an enemy, I would actually consider them worse than our oppressors.
So on Independence Day, it's important to reflect on the fact that we are an occupied nation.
Now, just like then, we're being ruled by a small country across an ocean, serving itself at our expense.
And as long as that is the case, I will always be obsessed with that.
As long as that is the case, I will always be speaking out against that and fighting against that.
And I will always be anchored, understanding that that is the fundamental struggle.
As long as our presidents have to kiss the wall in Israel and wear a small hat, as long as they have to say that we want to make Israel great again and they're the greatest country ever, I will never be okay with that.
Barack Obama created the joint comprehensive plan of action, the JCPOA, or the Iranian nuclear deal.
And Barack Obama brought together China, Russia, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and the United States and the European Union to enforce a nuclear deal that restricts Iran's enrichment of uranium.
The early talks were conducted in secret, and the Israelis were furious, furious about this.
They hated Obama.
Netanyahu went to a joint session of Congress and gave a speech in defiance of the American president and its nuclear deal.
And Congress gave 37 standing ovations.
This is the background of Trump's first election.
2016 election happens.
Trump gets elected with the help of the Israelis.
You don't believe me?
There's a whole article about it.
It's an excerpt from James Bamford's book, Spy Fail.
It goes into great detail about the hidden collusion in the 2016 election.
It wasn't Trump and Russia.
It was Trump and Israel.
And why was Israel so hell-bent on getting a Republican elected in 16?
In 2018, Donald Trump declares the IRGC, the Revolutionary Guard, which is the military of the regime, a terrorist group.
Green likes that group for sanctions, for attacks.
Now the United States is in a shadow war with Iran.
It culminates by January 2020 in the assassination of Qasim Suleimani.
Suleimani was the architect of the axis of resistance.
Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, Suleimani built all of it.
Are you starting to see Obama had this solved?
He made the deal.
The Israelis hated him for it.
They colluded with Trump to get him elected so that Trump would do maximum pressure and create a ladder of escalation, pulling us out of the deal, declaring the IRGC terrorists, then killing its leader, putting sanctions on the regime.
This is a war that started a long time ago, that Trump made hot in 2018 and has been going on for seven years.
That's the nature of forever wars.
Just like in Iraq, which went from 1990 until today, just like Libya, which went from 2011 to today.
Syria, which went from 2011 to today, and Iran, which went from 2018 until today.
That's the nature of forever wars.
And if you're not paying attention to those underlying forces, you're going to fall for it again and again.
You're going to be surprised and confused and coping over and over.
People are just tripping over themselves to do it again.
People that are scrambling, trying to protect their ever-shrinking share of what they have are foolish.
It's all going.
It's all going away.
This country is being ripped apart and raped and looted.
We're being slowly poisoned and in some cases, quickly murdered and assassinated.
And we're killing ourselves every day, inadvertently, with the kinds of things that we eat and breathe and drink and see.

My life is like a first-person video game, you know?
Listen to the cure, listen to the cure, listen to the cure, and then it cry.
All the things you had, running through my head, running through my head, running through my head, all the things you had, all the things you had, running through my head, running through my head, all the things you had, all the things you had.
I can't get in.
All the things you had, When can we expect a real victory?
I told you exactly how it would happen, when it would happen, why it would happen.
We're a couple weeks into the big two six, and we have an exclusive report from Axios.
It says that administration officials are thinking about walking back the mass deportations.
This is how it starts.
Okay, this is not a throwaway statement.
This is not, it probably is a planted story, but this is how it starts.
Okay, this isn't my first rodeo.
I remember how it happened the first time.
This is how it begins.
Here we are, year of the midterms.
We get this big exclusive report in Axios, and they're talking about how inside the administration, everyone's getting really apprehensive and nervous because they're looking at the poll numbers.
And all of the opinion surveys and all of the polling says that this mass deportation policy isn't very popular.
People are turning against it.
They're turning against ICE.
They're turning against the idea of massive deportations.
And they're turning against Trump.
And so now there are rumblings about how people in the admin are losing confidence and saying we need a different approach.
We need a different approach to the mass deportations.
You know, the ones that we aren't even getting at all.
Last year, we don't even know how many people were deported because the government isn't releasing that number.
They're suppressing it because it's low.
But estimates range from 300,000 to 600,000.
Nothing massive about that.
10 million came in in four years.
That's 2.5 million per year.
You deported on the upside, 600,000?
Nothing massive about that at all.
It hasn't even been going on for a year.
This is supposed to be the year when all of that money from the big beautiful bill hits the DHS department, hits Homeland Security.
And now they're saying we need to rethink the whole strategy.
And they're saying, well, rest assured, Trump still wants mass deportations.
We just need to go about it in a different way.
Okay, so how are we supposed to go about getting rid of a million people in a year?
I mean, what do you think that's going to look like?
You think you're going to remove a million people from the country that don't want to leave without beating the shit out of a couple of them, without shooting some idiot in the face?
You're talking about a million people in one year.
This is just math.
You think you're not going to be chasing some Mexican through somebody's yard and kicking down a door and everybody's screaming, getting hit with a shovel?
It's going to happen.
And so we'll read through the report.
It's not good, folks.
The numbers are bad.
And these are the numbers before the bitch got shot.
Okay, so the numbers were already really bad and going down before the pumpkin head got mag dumped in the face.
So they're probably worse now.
You got members of Congress calling the Trump administration, and they're telling him he needs a different approach.
And you got Joe Rogan on the Joe Rogan experience saying this is the Gestapo.
It's like the Nazis.
This is how it starts.
And we'll talk about it tonight.
We'll go into great detail.
Anybody that has watched my show, longtime viewers of the show, know if you've been watching me since 2024, if you watch me throughout 2025, you and me, I mean, we are on the same page.
I told you this is exactly what would happen.
I said it during the election.
I said it last year, during the election, when everybody was hyped up about these promises.
I said, they will not do deportations and they won't do them because Wall Street doesn't want them.
Silicon Valley doesn't want them.
And this Trump government, it's not going to be serious.
I said, you want to get a million people out?
It's going to cost a lot of money.
It's going to require a whole of government approach.
It is going to be unpopular.
And they are not going to bring in people that are focused, competent, ideologically consistent that are going to do it.
I said, and mark my words, if you're lucky, you'll get some in the first year.
We'll get to the midterms and they'll call it all off.
I said, because that's exactly what happened in 2018.
And here it is, just like magic.
We entered the midterm election year and they're already getting second thoughts about the whole thing.
Well, can't say I didn't tell you so.
Can't say I cannot say.
What is the expression?
I told you so.
I told you so.
I told you it happened this way.
And I will never get tired of saying it.
And isn't it crazy?
I'll just say this much before we really get into it.
The year is 2026, bombing Iran a second time.
No mass deportations.
What are we doing, guys?
What is this?
Anyway, somebody's calling me during my show.
I love nothing more than when I'm in the middle of a live stream, somebody calls me, and they know I'm doing a show.
Anyway, before we get into the big news, I want to remind you to smash the follow button on rumble, smash the like button, leave a comment, let me know what you think about the show.

Before we get into some of this other stuff, I do just have to say for openers, because I brought it up in the intro there.
This week it looked like we were going to war with Iran all over again.
And I talked about this in great detail on Tuesday.
And I brought everybody up to speed.
You can begin the story around December 29th, I think it was, when Netanyahu came to Mar-a-Lago for his fifth visit with Trump in 2025, fifth and final visit for the year.
And Netanyahu came to the United States again.
Why?
Because he wants us to bomb Iran again.
He wants us to support them in bombing Hezbollah again.
He wants the United States to give him the green light to go back to war in Gaza.
He wants permission to escalate the war in the Middle East on every single front.
And Trump didn't commit to a timeline or necessarily any of these particular options, but he did say if Iran rebuilds their nukes, if they rebuild their missiles, you can bomb them.
Sure enough, a week later, we get these giant protests in Iran, armed by the CIA and Mossad, backed by the CIA and Mossad, embellished in the media, assisted by Elon Musk's Starlink.
And it looks like the Iranian government might be on the ropes.
That's not really true, but they created this perception.
And so this week, it looks like we're staring down the barrel of another war with Iran.
And Trump has now redirected one of our carrier strike groups to the Middle East, presumably to escalate against Iran.
And it seemed just a couple of days ago that we were on the precipice of dropping bombs on them.
There were reports that there was major Israeli Air Force activity over Syria, fighter jets over Iraq.
U.S. bases were being evacuated.
It seems that a second strike on Iran was called off at literally the last minute earlier this week.
And a lot of people say, and I said this on Twitter tonight, a lot of people say, well, what a relief.
We didn't bomb Iran again.
Phew, that was close.
We almost went to war with Iran, but Trump saved us because he's the president of peace, you know, because he's the president of no new wars.
People are saying, so this is a good thing.
I guess we're not going back to war.
But then you wake up today and you read in the press, this is in the Wall Street Journal, this is in the Times of Israel, this is everywhere.
The reason that Trump did not follow through on the strike in Iran this week is because when the military told him about our options to strike in Iran, they could not guarantee that it would topple the Iranian government.
So what does that imply?
It implies that Trump fully intended earlier this week to pursue regime change in Iran.
That's what that tells us.
If he called off the strike at the last minute because the military told them, wait a second, this is not going to bring down the Iranian regime.
And Trump said, oh, okay, never mind.
What does that tell you?
Their goal, which they are now admitting, is to topple the Iranian government with U.S. military force.
So what happened last year to, well, this is only about the nuclear program.
Remember?
Last June, they said, we don't want regime change.
We don't want a war with Iran.
We don't want offensive activity.
We don't want to get involved.
They said, we just want to disable their nuclear centrifuges.
So we're going to drop some bombs and then that's it.
And then we're going to leave.
Remember?
And everybody said that was genius.
Everybody celebrated.
But of course, it's never that simple, ever.
Not in Iraq, not in Syria, not here.
Netanyahu comes back begging for a war.
Trump apparently was moments away.
And maybe this is like, this is obviously all planted by the administration.
They are creating a perception.
And we could talk about what the agenda is there.
But I think it is fair to say their agenda here is to push over this government, to topple this government with potentially multiple waves of airstrikes against government facilities, against their internal security service, against their missile launch platforms.
Who knows?
Who knows how much and what are the targets?
We know, however, that the end game is to push over the Iranian government.
So what they said last year was a lie.
It wasn't about the nukes.
It wasn't limited.
And now we are pursuing a top-down regime change with U.S. military force because Netanyahu wants it.
Now, they called off the strike this week.
What are they doing in the meantime?
They're moving a carrier strike group into the region.
You know what that is?
That's an aircraft carrier with a mini Air Force and a small army backed up with a number of other naval vessels.
And the reason they're bringing this force package to the Middle East, bring the aircraft, bring the personnel, bring the radar.
What they are preparing for is the ability to launch multiple waves of strikes, if necessary, to anticipate, detect, and counter an Iranian counterattack.
That is why they're deploying a carrier strike group.
So they saw this week, hey, wait a second.
The Iranian government crushed the protests.
I don't know how much military action is really going to help the protesters if that's over.
So one, we missed the window.
Two, all our ships are in the Caribbean right now intervening in Venezuela.
So we don't have enough manpower.
We don't have enough force if it's necessary to control the escalation ladder in Iran.
What's the solution?
Bring more force.
And presumably conduct more subterfuge and subversion inside Iran to lay the groundwork for another wave of protests.
What did Trump do on Monday?
25% secondary sanctions, which he's calling a tariff, on any country that does business with Iran.
So the protest started because the currency collapsed and one of their major state-sponsored banks collapsed.
That's what precipitated it.
Presumably then a bunch of armed breakaway groups, Kurds, Baloch types, liberals, other assorted groups took to the streets, organized on social media, beamed down from Starlink.
So they're going to hurt the economy further, organize the resistance more, maybe push more weapons in, arm the Kurds from Iraq, send them over the border to effectively invade Iran while they wait for the carrier strike group to get in position.
And what's amazing is that this is just now like a foregone conclusion that we're going to war in Iran.
How insane is that?
Trump gets elected.
It's not even on anybody's radar.
Nobody was thinking in 2024 we're going to war with Iran.
If you're paying attention, you knew that's where it was headed.
But that's not what he campaigned on.
He was in Michigan pandering to the Muslim population there saying, I'll end the war in the Middle East.
In June of 2025, there was great trepidation about getting involved in Iran until it happened and it was quick and it was over.
Now it's 2026, second year.
Oh, this is just what we have now.
This is just what it is.
We're at war with Iran.
We're actively pursuing regime change.
We're going to intervene.
And the U.S. media fully on board.
Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, New York Times, you read any of these papers any day over the past two weeks and it is nonstop wall-to-wall atrocity propaganda about the protests in Iran.
Sob stories and this one got murdered and this one got crushed and these are the bloodiest protests and maybe a million people died.
And you could see it is affecting public opinion.
The public is saying, oh, well, if there is a democratic uprising in Iran, we should help them out.
It's insane.
And it's insane how much people are drinking the Kool-Aid.
People that you never would have thought two years ago would be supporting U.S. intervention to bring about regime change in Iran are now saying, you know what?
If the protesters are out there, let's give them a hand.
Let's bring it in.
Why do we want to take the side of the Ayatollah and the Mullahs and these Islamists?
Well, if we could have a Persian monarchy, maybe that's a good thing.
It's like, do you hear yourself?
What do you think we've been doing for the past 25 years?
If only it were ever that simple.
Yeah, let's topple Bashar al-Assad.
All these towelheads have Facebook.
Let's just topple Assad and Gaddafi and Mubarak and everybody while we're at it.
He's deploying more soldiers to the brink so that we can go over the brink into a war.
That much is clear.
They are preparing the ground force that will do this.
They're coordinating, I imagine, inside the country with who is going to take over.
Those are some of the concerns.
You know, the people that called off the strike, this time it wasn't Tucker and the populists.
You know who called off the strike?
It was Turkey, the Saudis, Qatar, and Israel.
It was these countries that lobbied Washington and said, you can't use our airspace.
We don't think it's a good idea.
There's not a lot of regional support because they'd said we're just not ready for it yet.
But allow us to get ready.
Allow us to prepare for Iran to potentially be targeting U.S. assets everywhere in the region.
Prepare to intercept all these ballistic missiles.
Have a force package to launch waves of airstrikes.
Coordinate with these factions inside Iran that are going to be the ground force and probably arm them.
Maybe escalate against Hezbollah first, take them on in Lebanon with the major escalation, disarm Hamas, and then you go into Iran.
You know, but that seems to be the plan.
Anyway, but that's that.
I do want to move on.
I want to get into our other big story tonight.
This is like, and this is why I tell you guys, we got to crank up the pressure.
You got to keep the pressure up.
This is why we do it.
I hear from people all the time.
They say, well, why are you so negative about Trump?
There's a lot of good things.
Whose side are you on?
You only criticize the right wing.
This is why we do it.
You ready for this?
So our big story for tonight comes from Axios.
It talks about how Trump administration officials are starting to get a little bit nervous about how the mass deportations and ICE operations are being perceived by the general public.
They're looking at the opinion polling and the opinion surveys that is being conducted about these policies.
And the American public doesn't like it.
And you can feel how you want about it.
I have my feelings about it, which you know.
It's not popular.
And we could go into why that is and what that means and everything, but the numbers are the numbers.
The public is turning against the mass deportations.
They're turning against that policy.
And that was evident early on.
It seems that after Trump secured the border, the appetite for massive deportations started to diminish.
So this has been going on for a long time.
But now that we've seen so many of the ICE raids and the hype edits and all this stuff on social media, well, now we're seeing that the public is also turning against ICE.
Gen Z, Hispanic men, a lot of these people that came over for the Republicans in 24, they're turning against Trump because they don't like what they see in the videos.
And people in the administration are taking note of that and they're getting concerned about the midterms.
They're saying if people don't like the deportations, if we're losing Gen Z, if we're losing Joe Rogan, if we're losing Hispanics, if we're losing women, well, we're already kind of in poor shape with a number of other demographic cohorts.
What's it going to look like in the midterms?
And so they're starting to talk about changing the strategy.
I told you at the top of the show, this is how it starts.
So this is a story.
This is from Axios.
I'll read through this.
It says: quote: President Trump's team recently reviewed private GOP polling that showed support for his immigration policies falling.
The results reflected in public surveys bolstered internal concern about the administration's confrontational enforcement tactics.
Now, as the chaotic scenes from Minnesota play out around the clock on TV and social media, Axios has learned that some Trump advisors quietly are talking about recalibrating the White House's approach.
Although it's unclear what changes Trump might embrace, if any.
Recalibrating, changing tactics because of the wall-to-wall coverage on social media.
Sound familiar?
It says the worries in part of Trump's brain trust are the first signs of internal second-guessing of his controversial ICE enforcement tactics.
Say it isn't so.
They're second-guessing two weeks into the midterm election year.
Who could have predicted it?
I'm floored.
I'm shocked.
What a surprise.
The private polling suggested a rupturing of the coalition of independent, moderate, and minority voters who were key parts of Trump's victory in 2024.
Such voters will play a big role in determining whether Republicans keep their slim House majority in November's midterms.
A top Trump advisor told Axios: I wouldn't say he's concerned about the policy.
He goes on: this advisor, there's the right way to do this, and this doesn't look like the right way to a lot of people.
Several Republicans in Congress have expressed concern to the White House about how the raids are playing out, according to a person familiar with the discussions.
Internal GOP polling that alarmed Trump insiders was completed at the end of December, days before an ICE agent fatally shot Rene Goode in Minneapolis, otherwise known as George Foyd.
60% of independent voters, 58% of undecided voters said Trump was too focused on deportations.
33% said Trump was primarily deporting law-abiding people as opposed to criminals.
ICE is taking a reputational hit.
Two public surveys released this week, one from CNN, another from YouGov, found that most Americans said the agency was making U.S. cities less safe.
Another poll done for the Associated Press after Good's death found that just 38% of Americans now approve of Trump's immigration policies.
ISIS tactics are drawing pushback from some prominent Trump supporters.
Joe Rogan, who endorsed Trump on the eve of the 2024 election, complained on his show this week about militarized groups of people roaming the streets, showing up with masks on, snatching people up.
He said, are we really going to be the Gestapo?
Where's your papers?
Is that what we've come to?
Like clockwork, like clockwork.
They say a broken clock is right twice a day, like clockwork, mechanistically, always right on the dot, exactly when I predict.
And listen, the reason I say that is because I want to impress upon you people that in order to understand politics, you have to stop listening to what they are saying.
Look at what they are doing.
Look at the incentives.
Look at the bigger picture.
Politics is about telling you what you want to hear.
That is their job.
They want something from you.
They want your vote.
To get it from you, which is free, they tell you what you want to hear.
And it is free to tell you what you want to hear.
It costs you nothing to say things.
Anyone can say things.
Anyone can write things down and then say them.
What you have to think about are the political constraints facing the politicians.
You have to look at their record.
You have to look at their actions.
You have to think about the timeline.
You have to think about all these other things which are real and tangible and which are not free and which are not flexible, like a speech, like rhetoric is.
And so let me tell you what is happening here.
This is very clear.
Okay.
It reminds me of what happened in the first Trump administration.
In the first Trump administration, Trump got in.
He's inaugurated in 2017.
And right away, you might remember this if you're an old head.
If you've been around for a long time, you may remember this.
When Trump won the election and when he was inaugurated, illegal border crossings plummeted and they went very low after Trump won the election and was inaugurated.
Why?
Because these foreign nationals in Central and South America knew, or expected, is the better word, that Trump would enforce the laws.
So they wouldn't even leave their countries.
They wouldn't even try it.
Trump began to implement with Tom Holman and Stephen Miller and the same cast of characters the first time, he implemented what is called the family separation policy.
Because so many of the illegals that are coming over the border, they're coming with these unaccompanied minors.
And the minors aren't company, or they're not coming with their parents.
They're not accompanied by their parents.
They're accompanied by strangers and all kinds of other people.
If you look at the details of the illegal immigration problem, the unaccompanied minors are a huge part of the issue because this is part of the legal loophole of how they are caught at the border and released inside the country.
So Trump implemented the family separation policy.
We have to separate out the minors from the adults and detain them so that we don't have to catch them and release them inside the interior.
And in 2017, we began to build up some semblance of a logical border policy, looking at ending catch and release.
And what happened towards the end of 2017, around September, October, they started talking about a DACA amnesty.
January 2018 started talking about an amnesty deal.
We're going to give you the DACA recipients.
They'll be allowed to stay in the country legally.
In exchange, we want $23 billion for border wall, border security.
Want to reduce chain and family-based migration by 50%, implement the RAISE Act.
They were going for like this grand bargain.
Then we hit the midterm election year.
We're in 2018.
And over the summer in 2018, you start getting this investigative reporting from all the mainstream media about what is happening at the border.
And you might remember this phrase, it'll ring a bell.
They started reporting on kids in cages.
They started to say that the Trump administration is detaining kids in cages, like concentration camps, like the Holocaust, like the Nazis.
Trump is putting little children in cages like dogs at the border, like Hitler did to the Jews.
And they made it into a humanitarian crisis.
And there was wall-to-wall coverage of this in the media every single day.
Kids in cages, kids in cages, little kids in cages, separated from their parents.
What kind of country are we?
That's what they did.
That was the playbook in 2018.
And you know what Trump did?
And I know this because I know people that were there when it happened in the first admin.
That's part of, you know, being around for 10 years.
You know, people, you were there when it happened.
You remember it because you lived it.
I know this firsthand.
Trump picked up the phone and called Stephen Miller and said, Stephen, we got to stop this.
Watching what's happening on TV, he said, Stephen, we got to stop this.
And they reversed the policy.
They reversed the family separation policy, which was a cornerstone in border enforcement because the unaccompanied minors were the problem.
Huge part of the problem with these legal loopholes, how they get in the country.
But the media turned it into a humanitarian crisis, and they knew that they were pressing on that because it's a midterm election year.
So they're doing earned media for the Democrats.
And the Trump administration buckled because Trump is allergic to bad press.
He is allergic.
He watches those poll numbers like a hawk.
He is watching those closely.
So he is allergic to seeing those numbers go down.
He's allergic to seeing bad coverage on TV or in the New York Times.
He hates to see it.
And in the midterms, this is how it works.
They crank up the atrocity propaganda.
They run it on TV.
It affects public opinion.
Trump wimps out.
He chickens out like always.
He calls his people.
They stand down.
They back down because the people in the admin are weaker than him.
Who was our DHS secretary in the first term?
Christian Nielsen, total idiot.
Who's our DHS secretary in this one?
Christy Noam.
Great idea.
Yeah, she's a great person to run Homeland Security.
When I think of mass deportations, I think of this idiot with the plastic surgery that shot her dog and her boyfriend, allegedly Corey Lewandowski.
That's who's going to run DHS effectively.
That's who's going to run the most expansive deportation operation in U.S. history.
They are weaker than he is.
And he is weak.
He is weak.
And that's what we know about him.
And you would only know that if you were there during the first term and have the experience.
We played this game before where Trump runs a presidential campaign saying, we're going to build a wall, deport them all.
We're going to do.
And then he gets in, the poll numbers go down, he gets some bad media.
I don't know who's weaker, him or his horrible people that he employs.
They're the absolute worst, incompetent, disloyal.
They don't even believe in the mission.
And then he backs down before the midterms and they lose anyway.
Now, fast forward eight years, same story.
You have ICE.
And look, here's the story with ICE.
The existing ICE personnel is not trained in these interior removal operations.
We don't do large-scale interior removals.
It just didn't happen under Biden.
It's never really happened in modern history that we've got ICE going door to door.
They're not law enforcement operatives like that.
They don't have a lot of experience.
So the personnel that ICE actually has, they do not have the experience to do this.
They need some training.
And you don't even have enough of them.
Even if every ICE member had a lot of experience in these operations, you're still way short of the kind of force that you would need to get a million people per year out of the country.
So now we got to bring in 12,000 people in a year and train them up and get them out there.
So they're going out there and yeah, they're a little rowdy.
They're a little undisciplined.
I think that's obvious.
And it's a difficult situation.
Who can blame them?
They're chasing down these people.
Many of them are violent criminals.
They flee on foot.
You don't know who's legal, who's not legal.
You're fighting with the local law enforcement that's not backing you up.
The local mayors and the Democrat governors are out to get you.
You got these activists chasing you around, death threats, shooting at you, throwing fireworks at you.
It's a very difficult job.
You get it.
But you also understand that social media is merciless.
The iPhone is merciless.
So they're getting recorded.
And while you're carrying out these operations, every mistake, every careless word, action is being recorded, uploaded on social media, and then it is being amplified and embellished by the media.
And you had to know this was going to happen.
You had to know that you can't deport a million people per year if you don't get a ton of ICE officers and you don't have a ton of these types of encounters.
And statistically speaking, if you're getting a million people out of the country per year and there's a million arrests, these people are not going willingly, odds are some of them are going to get ugly.
Some people are going to get punched in the face or called a bitch or whatever.
Some people are going to get improperly detained.
Out of a million people, yeah, you're going to get a dozen of them.
Okay.
Statistically speaking, it's about volume.
And you had to expect that all of that is going to be aired out in the media.
And now that we're in the midterm election year, that is exactly what is happening.
All over social media, all over TV, all over the papers.
Every person falsely accused, falsely imprisoned.
Every mistake ICE makes, again, if they push somebody down, they shoot somebody with a rubber bullet and it blows up their fucking eye.
That's all over the media.
And every time it happens, this is attrition on the voter.
This is attrition on normies.
Normies who are not nativists, not white nationalists.
They're not even restrictionists.
Okay, your average normie is actually inclined towards immigration, probably.
They don't want to deport every illegal immigrant, even those that have been here for 20 years, working hard, paying taxes.
They don't want to shut down all immigration.
And so it doesn't take much.
If you're getting hit with this propaganda day in, day out, and it's crying people, sob stories, people getting their head blown off, they're going to start to crack.
You're going to lose them.
You have to expect this too.
You have to anticipate that all of this will happen.
It is obvious.
If a million are going out, a thousand are getting unjustly detained, shot, beaten up, whatever.
If that many people are getting mistreated, the media is going to embellish it and you're going to lose the normies.
Your poll numbers are going to tank.
They're going to tell you you got to reverse it for the midterms.
You must anticipate this.
You must be prepared.
And you need to have the right personnel that are going to push through regardless.
You need to have the personnel in DHS and ICE and Customs and Border Patrol that are going to push through.
And you need to have the expectation at the top that this is how it's going to play out.
And you need to push through.
You need the focus.
You need the follow-through.
You need the determination and the will to push it through and make it a priority.
None of this is a surprise.
This should not come as a surprise to anybody that it has played out this way.
But now this is how it starts.
So they're looking at the collapsing polling numbers before Renee Goode got shot.
And they're looking at how this is affecting their prospects in 26.
And if it keeps going this way, and it will, if they increase the deportations, you'll get more of it.
Okay, they brought in 12,000 new ICE agents.
They're getting up the detention capacity to 100,000.
There's going to, if we want to have mass deportations and follow through, we got to do at least twice as good as we did last year.
So we're at this point, we got to double what we did every single day last year, every single day this year.
We have to do twice as many.
See the problem?
If you want to follow through and do mass deportations, it's got to get more severe.
It's got to get more intense.
And by the way, the left is reacting.
So they are going to escalate.
Last year, you had the advantage of catching them by surprise.
You were the first mover.
If you hit the ground running in March, Antifa and the left don't have time to react.
Okay, well, now they've been watching this movie on TV for a year.
And you bet there are groups out there making bombs and getting their plots ready.
They're ready to attack ICE.
And they're ready to escalate this and make it ugly and messy for everybody.
They're ready to do these protests.
They're ready to do the black block tactics.
They're ready to do this shit and disturb everybody's daily lives.
So you're going to get more of it.
The left is going to escalate and make it a real headache.
And the normies are going to blame all of it on Trump because they're going to say, look, before you took power and started this, everything was fine.
Now our cities are up for grabs.
Now you got people chasing ICE through the streets and blowing up fireworks.
They're going to blame him for it.
And again, it gets back to is that political will there?
And I told you before, they weren't even serious to begin with.
In 24 and 25, they repeatedly said, we're not looking to deport everybody, just the worst offenders, just the most violent criminals.
Then we'll worry about everybody else.
And you knew they weren't going to deport everybody because Wall Street doesn't want that.
Silicon Valley doesn't want that.
Big agriculture doesn't want that.
You know who has a great relationship with the president?
Brookie.
Brooke Rollins, Secretary of Agriculture.
You know where she comes from?
America First Policy Institute.
That is like the official think tank after Trump left office in 2021.
And she's got a good relationship with the president, better than Christy Noam, the DHS secretary.
Brooke Rollins, as USDA secretary, she's looking out for big agriculture.
And big agriculture runs on illegal migrant labor.
So when Trump starts deporting some of the grape pickers and berry pickers, they call up Brookie.
She calls up Trump and says, hey, man, we got to do something about this.
We need these people.
And so what if Stephen Miller starts to whip up an H-1A visa program so that all these illegal Hispanics working in agriculture can stay?
And that's where Trump starts to say, well, we're going to kick him out and let him back in on a new visa.
For all these people on Twitter that said, well, you know, if Trump doesn't do the deportations, we'll just get on Twitter and we'll tell him we're not happy.
Hey, fucking idiot.
You can tweet all day long on Twitter and they do.
Dude, the head of JP Morgan that just built himself a new skyscraper in New York City, he has a personal audience with Trump.
He outranks you, stupid.
Larry Fink, who is now the head of the World Economic Forum and who runs the largest asset manager in the world, BlackRock.
Yeah, he has a personal audience with Trump too.
He outranks you, dumbass.
He outranks the frogs on Twitter.
Sorry to break it to you.
They weren't even serious about it in the first place.
So here we are in 26, two weeks in.
And everybody knows last year was a disappointment.
We didn't get mass deportations last year.
And we know we didn't because they're suppressing the data.
They won't even tell us how many they deported because they know it's low.
It might be 300,000.
It might be 600,000.
Either way, that's not enough.
If you even want to reverse Biden, you're going to need 2.5 million per year.
If you want to have a record-breaking mass deportation, you need a million a year.
We're barely cracking half that, maybe.
Okay, that's where we are from last year.
So I told you it would be like this in 2024.
I told you it would be like this in 2025.
We are two weeks into 2026.
We are supposed to actually ratchet it up, double those numbers.
They told us last year all these excuses.
Well, you see, the reason it's not high is because ICE doesn't have the resources.
Well, the reason it's not high is because, well, you know, waiting for the big, beautiful bill money.
Well, the reason it's not high is because, well, do you remember this?
This is the game.
So it would have made a difference last year, but they ran out the clock.
And you dummies let him because you made excuses about it.
You let him make excuses about it.
You made the excuses for the administration.
You negotiated against yourself.
Trump did not give you what he promised.
And you negotiated with yourself and said, here's why this is okay that I'm drawing the short end of the stick.
Right?
Two weeks into the midterm election year, not a good sign that Axios is out there saying the administration is having second thoughts.
They literally use that word.
They're having second thoughts.
We need to recalibrate.
We need to change our strategy.
Yeah, you do.
You know what strategy you need to change?
You need to deport twice as many people.
Recalibrate.
Yeah, double it.
I don't think that's what they're going for, though.
How are you going to deport more people if you're being more discriminating?
And by that, I mean right now, to Trump's credit, two-thirds of the people that have been arrested don't have a rap sheet.
They're just here illegally, and that's it.
So it seems that, you know, they're going after criminals and they're rounding up a lot of people in the process.
So you could say they're not discriminating in who they target.
They're really arresting anybody that doesn't have papers.
God bless.
Well, if the problem is the tactics are brutal and, you know, this is causing chaos, how will you cause less chaos while deporting twice as many people?
How are you going to deport twice as many people by being more discriminating and more targeted and surgical?
It ain't going to happen.
Not going to happen.
We're already being too surgical.
We're already being too precise.
And, you know, the effect is hardly visible now.
It's going to be visible if you double the number.
And if it's doubly visible, the shithead activists are going to be doubly motivated.
They're going to be out there.
So, you know, there's one way to do this, which is four feet on the gas pedal.
You need to tune out the haters, tune out Wall Street, tune out Silicon Valley, tune out the polls, the media.
Get it done.
It's going to be ugly.
It's going to hurt.
But let me tell you something about how politics works.
You need to be in the business of scoring points that cannot be unscored.
Okay.
Do you follow me here?
When Democrats bring in immigrants, the reason this is so poisonous is because we all know they're never fucking going back.
They can call it temporary protected status, deferred action on childhood arrivals, implying that like, well, someday they'll be deported.
They're temporarily protected from deportation.
It doesn't matter what the program is, refugee, asylum seeker, you're a seasonal worker.
We all know, everyone knows every non-white person that crosses this border is here forever.
They are here forever.
They're having kids.
The kids are citizens.
And anchors away, they're never going home.
And the Democrats are counting on that.
The non-whites are counting on that.
The globalists are counting on that.
That nobody is ever going to pick them up and toss them back.
And we just have to deal with the new reality.
People are here.
They're never going back.
Get used to it.
This is a new America.
What are we going to do?
Deport this person that's been here for one year, five years, 20 years.
Reagan gave amnesty to 3 million people and they said it would be the end of it in 1986.
Okay?
That was 40 years ago.
If Trump follows through on mass deportations, you throw these people back into some other country.
They're not coming back.
There is going to be no airlift.
That would be impossible.
Like the Democrats can't put them all on a plane and reverse this.
At least they can't do it easily.
They could open the borders.
You know, they could undo the executive orders.
They could do things like that.
But like, they could not easily undo shipping out millions of people.
You know, you send those people out, you prevent them from coming back.
This is a more solid win if you physically remove them.
You use political power to physically send people, pick them up, put them on a plane and ship them so far away, it's hard for them to come back.
That is a political victory.
That is worth it.
If you're in office for four years and you only deport millions of illegals, good.
Oh, we lost the house.
Oh, well, people are unhappy.
Who cares?
Just be a deportation machine.
What else matters?
Cut the corporate tax rate some more?
I mean, what else matters, really?
At the end of the day, what's going to have a bigger fiscal, social, political impact on the country than removing over 10 million people that really don't belong here?
Like the Somalian enclave should be like eliminated.
And by that, I don't mean killed.
I mean, like, we should wake up in four years and it isn't there.
Like, we should wake up in four years and it's like, oh, all those people were sent home.
We should wake up in four years and all those Haitians in Springfield, Ohio aren't there anymore.
These people that are eating cats and like menacing the local population and crashing trucks into stuff, they just shouldn't be here.
And we should be liberated and say, thank God, Springfield, Ohio is liberated.
Minneapolis is liberated.
Like, and these are examples.
And if you get those numbers up to 10 million, how many Haitians are in Minnesota?
I think it's 200,000, 300,000, something like that.
How many Haitians are in Springfield?
How many Indians, how many Hispanics do you have in some of these enclaves in Texas and California?
Just start doing it.
But that's not what this administration was about.
That's not who paid for it.
That's not who paid for the campaign.
That is not who is enjoying the spoils of the patronage system that has these cabinet posts and is benefiting from contracts and other things right now.
The graft and stealing is like, you'll find out about it way later.
You'll find out about it when the Democrats take the House.
You'll find out about it in a few years.
It's criminal.
That's what this administration is about.
It's about milking the government dry for more money for the billionaires, more money for these politically connected people.
That's what this is about at this point.
And I told you it'd be like this.
And I said, the reason we need to withhold our vote from Trump is so that he makes a commitment to do these deportations.
He needs to hear it.
You know, and even as far as like Brooke Rollins is concerned.
So Brooke Rollins was with America First Policy Institute.
You might remember this in 2024.
Remember Project 2025?
Remember that?
So Project 2025 was a white paper and a staffing database by the Heritage Foundation, that think tank.
And so Heritage Foundation, they came up with Project 2025.
It's like a 93-page white paper.
It said, this is what the second Trump admin is going to do in terms of policy.
And they put together a database.
These are all the loyalists.
These are all the America First personnel.
This is who we're going to hire in all these different positions.
We're going to fire 50,000 people.
We're going to hire 50,000 patriots.
And you might remember, and this is like a good plan.
I endorse this.
Trump totally cut them out back in June and July of 2024.
He disavowed them.
He said, I have nothing to do with 2025.
I don't know any of them.
I want nothing to do with them.
They were pushed out in large part by Brooke Rollins because Trump was telling Herod, they were telling Heritage and Project 2025, they said, you got to get along with AFPI.
They said, you think you're writing the white paper for my administration?
You think you're going to staff the administration?
He said, I already gave that job to Brooke Rollins and AFPI.
You got to work with her.
And so they were perceived by Trump to be in competition.
Trump favored Brooke.
They lost the battle in the court.
They lost the battle in the court of Donald Trump, in the palace intrigue of Donald Trump.
The signs were there.
The signs were there.
You can't say you didn't know.
You can't say you weren't warned.
I told you that, I told you this was going to happen and why.
It was very clear in 24 when Ken Griffin and the Wall Street guys, Bill Agman, when Elon Musk and Tim Mellon, when Silicon Valley and the bankers got involved, that it was going to go down like this.
And these guys like Joe Rogan, and I like Joe on some things, and I like Tim Dillon a lot.
I think he's hilarious.
And I like Theo Vaughn.
I think these are great guys.
I like these guys a lot.
I think they're really good.
What I will say about them is that they are not far-right ideologues.
I don't say that to insult them.
I just don't think that's ideologically where they fall on the spectrum.
They're anti-woke.
They were against the Democrats because they were pushing like this dead guy and then Kamala.
It got so ridiculous.
But people maybe made the mistake of thinking we have this giant coalition for right-wing death squads.
We didn't.
Joe Rogan, I said this the other night.
He's like a, he's kind of like a left of center guy.
And so you had to anticipate that all these people that kind of projected onto Trump what they wanted him to be, they weren't going to be there for like what we wanted Trump to be, which is a very right-wing, very strong executive.
You got to know you're going to lose that support.
You got to push through anyway.
And so I don't know what's going to happen in 2026.
I'll tell you this much.
They have brought on 12,000 ICE agents, which is great.
They targeted 10,000.
They wanted 10,000 new guys.
They got 12,000.
They're increasing the detention capacity from, I think, 78,000 to 100,000.
So if you could detain more people, you can get more people out.
That's good.
And that money from the big, beautiful bill is about $150 billion, I think.
That is supposed to hit DHS.
It was supposed to hit a few months ago, but we're supposed to be seeing the fruits of that very soon.
So the tools are there.
Okay.
The money is there.
The personnel is there.
The infrastructure is being built.
There are no excuses.
Either we deport a million people this year, and we'll have a pretty good idea by November, or we know this whole thing was a scam.
That's really what it's come to.
There's no excuses.
What excuse can you make?
You appropriated $150 billion for this in June of last year.
You hired 12,000 people.
You built warehouses to put these people in beds.
Okay, you have the money.
There's no excuse now.
You know what we want.
You know it wasn't enough last year.
So we need more deportations.
I have a hunch that it's going to go down.
I have a feeling that Trump is going to get the call because look, here's what we're talking about with the midterms.
Republicans, at this point, I don't even know what their majority is.
I think it's like two votes.
One guy died.
Marjorie Green left.
There's been some shakeups here.
They only had a four-vote majority when they got in.
So these people are dropping like flies.
You might not even have a majority by November.
It is true in almost every election for 100 years that the incumbent party loses the House, or at the minimum, they lose seats in the House.
So, the ruling party almost never gains seats in the midterms.
It almost never happens.
And Trump has pretty low approval ratings, pretty low favorability.
It's gone very far down.
He's losing Gen Z, losing Hispanics.
He's losing with women.
He's hurt a lot.
All things being equal, we're going to lose seats.
If you lose like three, there goes the House.
You know what happens the next day?
Everybody gets impeached.
Okay, in the first week of January, next year in 2027, when this House is sworn in, everybody's getting impeached.
Okay, everyone is getting charged.
Corey Lewandowski, Christy Noam, Trump, Heg Seth, all these guys are getting subpoenaed and they're getting subpoenaed the shit out of them.
And you might remember the Democrats shut down the government for 45 days, longest government shutdown in history.
That's when they had a minority in the Senate.
They're going to have that same minority in the Senate.
They'll be able to prevent Republicans from beating a filibuster.
Plus, they're going to have a majority in the House.
They're going to shut everything down.
Okay, so everything you thought we were going to do, everything you hoped Trump would accomplish later, they're going to shut it down until 2028.
And then that's, okay, that's curtains.
That's it.
These are the stakes.
So knowing that, Republicans, by hook or by crook, they want to keep the House.
So you better believe Trump is going to get blasted with calls from Republicans in Congress from now until November.
We got to do something about ICE.
We're getting killed out here.
You're going to lose your majority.
We're all going down.
They're going to make those calls.
Silicon Valley, Wall Street are going to make those calls.
And public pressure is going to mount from guys like Joe Rogan and the military guy who's calling him a pedo protector.
The public pressure is going to mount.
And it's going to come down to: does Trump have the balls and the fortitude to stick it out?
I don't think he does.
I hope I'm wrong, but like I told you, we've seen this movie before.
This is exactly how it played out in the first term.
Trump bent the knee.
And you know what followed after that?
So if we go back to the first term, Trump caved on family separation, talked about a DACA amnesty before the midterm elections.
You know what happened in 2019, six months after the midterms?
We had the highest number of border crossings in the month of May and June in 20 years.
That's how it happened the first term.
Okay.
So Trump gets into office and nobody even attempts to cross the border illegally because they're so afraid of the enforcement.
Midterms come around, wall-to-wall coverage of ICE atrocities, border patrol atrocities, calls up Stephen Miller.
Stephen, we got to do something about this.
They reverse the policy.
The illegals know it's a free-for-all.
It's open season.
And within six months from the Northern Triangle, you get 150,000 illegal border crossings, apprehensions in the month of May.
You get more in June.
20-year highs in the first term.
And he didn't build the wall.
He didn't build the wall.
And that is what allowed Biden to open it right back up and let in 10 million people.
You get Trump in.
He doesn't deport those 10 million people.
He still doesn't build the fucking wall.
What happens in 2028?
A Democrat comes in.
They open up the floodgates.
10 million more illegals.
Congratulations.
You win the prize.
10 million more.
So we will be in 2032, 16 years into the Trump movement, and we're 20 million more illegals in the hole.
We started with 20 or 30 million.
Now we're at like, I don't even know.
There's more illegals than citizens at that point.
This is why we say, you know, that's why they call me an accelerationist, anti-Trumper, whatever.
It's like, look, man, don't get me wrong.
When I hear these people and they say, oh, you know, Trump is like, he's like America's Hitler.
No one is saying that like it's a good thing.
That's fake.
No one ever says that at all.
But like when these people say, Trump is like our Caesar, he's going to, he's like the guy.
He's our leader.
Trust the plan.
He's like, I get it.
I wish that was the case.
But it's like, look, man, we have seen this for 10 years.
We know what we're getting.
This is the devil you know.
Okay.
We know at this point who Trump is and what he's about.
We know his faults and his strengths.
We know the people that he's involved with.
Okay.
We know his behavior.
We know all these things about him.
And like, I don't think we're going to get any surprises.
The man's 80 years old.
You know, the man's literally turning 80 years old.
They think he's become a new man, you know?
Punish Trump.
I will be your vengeance.
It didn't happen.
And we got to come to terms with that.
So this is why I'm telling people, it's like, look, the Democrats are going to activate.
We got to activate and say, look, we're not turning out unless we get mass deportations.
You want to have a shot at keeping the House in the midterms?
You better deliver.
That's why I tell people it can't only go in one direction where moderates, independents, and liberals are saying, we're not going to vote if you keep doing it.
We as the far right need to say we won't vote if you don't do it because we need Republicans worried about that.
We need Republicans worried about if we look too soft, we can forget about it because then our base won't show up.
That's the psychology we need to create.
But if you say, I will negotiate with myself, I will tolerate anything.
I am a sucker.
I am a mark.
I will literally never stand up for myself.
I will vote Republican no matter what.
Well, then you're begging to be taken advantage of.
It's what it is.
So anyway, that's coming out of the administration.
Not a good sign.
Not a good sign.
Two weeks into 2026, and they're saying, you know, we're having some second thoughts.
Everybody's saying, okay, you got your $150 billion from that big corporate tax giveaway.
Are you going to deport 6 million people yet?
And they say, yeah, you know, about that.
I think we need to recalibrate our strategy.
We're still in favor of mass deportations.
It's just, you know, Mr. Trump doesn't like the way it looks.
And you know what that tells us, by the way?
If they're saying to Axios that Trump only said he doesn't like how it looks, you know what that means?
It's coming from the top.
It means that Trump is telling them, I don't like this.
Okay, so he's having second thoughts.
It's not, don't blame it on Corey Lewandowski.
Don't blame it on Tom Holman.
Trump is having second thoughts.
Now we got a problem.
So I hope, I hope they follow through here.
Because if they don't, tell me who is going to do it.
If Trump, in his second term, after being overthrown and shot in the face and charged and wins the popular vote because of this fluke, Biden's dying, Kamala comes in.
Joe Rogan, Elon Musk, Tim Mellon, they're airdropping helicopter money into his coffers.
Everybody comes together to defeat Woke.
The Israel lobby's all in on it.
It's Trump.
If he can't deport millions of people, who is going to do it and when and under what circumstances?
You think Vance is going to do it?
What would make you think Vance could even try?
We don't even know anything about him.
You know, say what you want about Trump.
He galvanized a coalition that won a presidential election legit from the outside.
He changed everything single-handedly in 2016.
He's capable of things.
He's capable of these incredible things.
He's been the president.
And we saw him in exile, still four feet on the gas pedal.
We don't even know who Vance is.
He's never even had a real job.
He wrote a fucking book about his Mima.
And you think he's going to be able to deliver what Trump could not?
Why do you think that is?
Because he gave a speech at Turning Point where he said, hell, I drank a Mountain Dew.
They'll probably say that's racist.
And you people say, I like the way Vance talks.
I like him.
I'm liking what I'm seeing from him.
It's the speech.
He's famous for writing a book that's anti-Trump.
That's all he's ever done.
You think he'll be better?
You think he'll go harder?
Why?
It's crazy.
That's their plan.
That's their ace in the hole.
You fucking idiots.
And here's the last thing I'll say.
Then we'll move on.
You want to know the worst part?
When it comes to all these other people, they are getting their palms greased.
They are getting their end.
Netanyahu is not unhappy.
Okay.
Elon Musk is not unhappy.
Andreessen Horowitz is not unhappy.
None of these people are unhappy with what they are getting from the Trump administration.
That should piss you off.
Okay.
Ken Griffin and Mark Andreessen and Elon Musk and Tim Mellon and Benjamin Netanyahu and Miriam Adelson and Mark Levin, they are all happy as a fucking clam.
They are ultra-wealthy.
They're on a beach somewhere.
They're calling the president personally, telling him what to do, and they're loving it.
They're loving every second of it.
They're loving all the AI investment, the deregulation in the states.
They're loving the glut of energy.
They're loving the intervention in the Middle East.
They're loving the corporate tax cuts.
They're loving the rate reductions.
They're loving all this stuff.
And they're getting fabulously wealthy off of it.
They're getting their back scratched.
Dude, they're getting their ass eaten.
Like, not to be gross, but like they're getting the full service.
And you, stupid, are at home on Twitter.
You are not richer.
You are not materially better off at all.
Okay.
The economy's not great.
Job market's not great.
Housing market's not great.
And you are sitting there on Twitter telling yourself, well, it's okay that we don't have mass deportations.
You know, Trump doesn't have the money for it yet.
Well, the American Community Survey said the 2 million self-deported.
So that's good.
I hope that's real.
You know, like it's so sad.
So sad.
But these are the wages of demagoguery.
These are the wages of populism.
You were used.
You were used to enthrone Trump.
And now that Trump is in, everyone's getting rich on polymarket.
Everyone's getting rich on Trump coin.
Everyone's getting rich on these big contracts.
Everyone is getting rich.
Everyone that's in the club, everyone that paid a million dollars to be at Mar-a-Lago and overheard, you know, that we're going to get an interest rate reduction and they made a trillion dollars on polymarket.
You know, they were the first one in on Trump coin.
They have their connection here and there in the government, and they're going to get a they're going to get to skim off of a hundred million dollar contract.
Okay, that's the game.
Now, that doesn't mean don't play, but it means take your own side.
It means play to win.
Don't get emotionally invested.
That was the mistake.
All these people in 2024 were saying, you're being disloyal to Trump.
I know a guy.
I know a guy.
He was one of my best friends.
He knows me in real life.
He went to my fucking birthday party.
Close friend of mine.
Like, you know me.
You shook my hand.
We know each other on a first name basis.
I know where you live.
You know where I live.
And he was flipping out in 2024 because I was being disloyal to Trump.
Hey, fuck Tard.
Trump doesn't know who you are, little bro, and he doesn't care about you.
You're not paying a million dollars to be a Mar-a-Lago.
You didn't get the tip off about Trump coin.
You didn't get the tip off about the polymarket.
Other people did.
Okay, you don't own a data center.
You don't own Andoril.
You don't own anything that is being enriched by this administration.
If we are the peasant class, the working class, middle class, native people of America, we need to start organizing and acting like it as a voice, as one group saying, listen up, pal.
You want all of our votes.
This is what we expect.
You don't deliver.
We're not voting.
And they're going to tell you, oh, but then the other side's going to, oh, but then not our problem.
This is what we're getting now.
Okay.
If you ever want to win the game, you got to play to win.
You can't play not to lose.
Oh, we didn't lose this year.
Oh, we didn't.
Okay, so we're going to lose the next one.
You know, it's like they distribute the losses and the ones where it's a draw.
I don't want to draw.
I don't want to lose.
I want to win.
I want to play to win.
That means we win, someone else loses.
You know who needs to start to lose?
Silicon Valley, Wall Street, foreigners, Israel.
These groups need to fucking lose.
And Americans need to start winning.
And yes, it is a zero-sum game for American wages to go up, for American soldiers not to die in wars that aren't our own, for the government to actually be able to focus on securing the border, building a wall, deporting illegals.
Yes, we have to win and they have to lose.
The asset managers, private equity, the Wall Street traders, the Israel lobby, the foreigners, the illegals that have been here for 20 years.
Yeah, it's time for them to lose for once.
It's time for them to draw the short end of the stick, not us.
It's time for the Republicans that are the beneficiaries of the patronage system to lose.
Do we really need to pay for another fucking boob job?
For another Christy Gnome, for another bimbo at Mar-a-Lago?
Seriously.
Because that's all we're doing right now.
It's nuts.
They're just going through the motions.
Just make another true social post.
Just make another announcement that has no basis in reality.
And you'll have Cat Turt and all these other dummies.
Oh, we're winning today.
No, we're not.
It doesn't feel like we're winning.
Doesn't feel like anything change here.
I'm out here in Chicago.
Where's the National Guard?
Still lawless.
Where's the mass deportations?
City's still run by illegal immigrants.
You know, like, what do you mean?
So that's that.
I do want to move on, though.
We're going to take a look at our super chats.
We'll see what you guys have to say about all this.
You know, but you hear about this kind of stuff all the time.
It's about pipelines.
It's about infrastructure.
I don't believe that huge wars necessarily happen because of specific infrastructure projects.
Typically, because it's like, and again, so I suppose, I guess what the, what is the canal project?
It's to connect the Strait of Tehran to the Eastern Med.
That's what I assume it is, right?
Connect the Strait of Tehran to Eastern Med.
That way they get around the Suez.
I think that's what it is.
I feel like I've heard of that before.
Maybe I'm wrong.
I tend to think that wars are not fought because of like infrastructure projects.
Because usually it's easier to just like pay somebody off than to like kill everybody.
Like, is it easier to physically remove 2 million people and like slaughter 100,000 of them and destroy all their shit and like go to war with everybody?
Or is it easier to like pay some people off, build a little canal?
You know what I mean?
So, no, I continue to believe the real reason Israel.
Like, do you watch my show?
Seriously, the reason they're going after Gaza is because the bipartisan security consensus has changed.
They can no longer tolerate the existence of Palestinians and Iranian proxies.
And ultimately, they want to decisively confront Iran.
It's much bigger than that.
It's much bigger than like a little canal.
They're effectively terraforming the region.
This is about southern Lebanon, southern Syria, the West Bank, Gaza.
I will tell you the reason that people on our side were sympathetic to her because they are simps.
That is the only reason.
Any right-wing person that is remotely sympathetic to that fat, silly bitch, Renee Goode, the only reason they are doing that is because they are pussy whipped by their wife.
They are some kind of girl dad, some kind of girl dad nationalist, some kind of wife guy.
That is the only reason.
Their girlfriend told them to.
Their wife told them to.
They looked at their daughter and were filled with sentiment because they literally think that women can never be held accountable for their actions, no matter what women do.
If a woman hits a cop with her car, oh, it's because a man brainwashed her.
As far as the Zog war, we're not even going to go there.
I explained it on Monday.
The Western hemisphere is ours.
If you're so jewed up, you think this hemisphere isn't ours.
Who does it belong to?
The Mexicans?
You know, I had an argument with somebody earlier.
I said, why can't we invade Greenland?
They said, because of their sovereignty.
I said, 50,000 Inuits have sovereignty over their giant island with all the gold or all the uranium and stuff.
Get real.
Talk about jewed up.
You're just like some left-wing feminist faggot piece of shit and you should die too.
Honestly, I should kill you too.
Go, hey, listen, pussy.
Get your pink pussy hat and you go and march with all the Somalians.
I was going to say a different word, but I caught myself.
I've been on the air for the full week.
Listen, buddy, you and Tucker and all these other people that are so broken up about Renee Goode, you can put on your pussy hats and you can get your picket signs and you can go and march with the black block and with the Somalians and BLM.
Okay.
And I hope ICE kills you too.
I hope that you go and stand up to terror capitalism.
I hope you stand up to the IDF trained ICE and I hope they kill you too.
I hope they shoot you in the face a hundred times, you stupid fucking idiot.
At some point, people got to be held accountable, you know?
And this is a pretty cut and dry example.
We're not saying she deserved to get shot because she had a different opinion.
You're running a cop over with your car.
If that's not, if that's not an example of where extreme accountability is necessary, I don't know what is.
So, I mean, that's just unbelievable.
If you died, by the way, if any of us died, you know what this one would be doing?
She would have been celebrating.
And where your parents say, if Renee Goode ran you over and said, oh, I hope they're dead.
That was a Nazi.
Are your parents going to say, I forgive Renee Goode?
She was only brainwashed by the system.
If Renee Goode hit you with her car and killed you, would you love to hear if your spouse or your parents got on TV and said, I forgive, as a Christian, I forgive Renee Goode.
You ever see the movie The Matrix and Morpheus and Neo are walking down the street and he said, you know, these people, like, they don't know that they're working for the Matrix.
I'm glad to hear that the family's converting to Catholicism.
I love that.
Very wholesome.
I can't imagine life without it, honestly.
I know people that got raised atheist or Protestant.
And I know all my Catholics understand what this is like.
Growing up with the Mass, it's just different.
You just have a totally different outlook on life.
My parents are still married.
When I was growing up, they took me to Catholic Mass.
I went to CCD.
And I really believe my life would have been so different if I didn't have that.
Because the comfort of the Mass is when a baby is born, when a grandparent dies, when a sibling, a family member, or a cousin gets married, it's in the church.
And there's some comfort.
And when I was a kid, it used to terrify me.
I used to go into Mass and think, is this really like what the universe is about?
It's about this like carpenter in the desert.
Because I was really into Star Wars.
I was really into like, you know, stuff like that.
I'm like, Star Wars is so much cooler.
Like, this is really what it is.
But of course, when you get older, it's such a comfort that there is a place that transcends everything.
There is a place.
It is called the Catholic Mass that transcends everything that is created, everything that is worldly, everything that is temporary.
When you go to the Mass, you know you're in God's house.
You know that you're in a place that harbors the eternal.
And there's some comfort that, oh, there's some continuity.
You say there is life after death.
There is a foundation here.
There is a rock for my reality.
You know, there is something bigger than American Idol and like what, and maybe this is sounding like corny at this point.
But what I mean by that is, you know, the nature of things of creation is that it is finite.
And it's easy to trick yourself that you could fill up your life with infinite novelty and excitement and sensory experiences, you know, like Star Wars, let's say.
See the world, travel, go to concerts, try drugs, try new food, have lots of sex with different women, do this, that, and the other.
And, you know, what you find in life is that you get fatigued by all of it.
And you see the limit of all of it.
You see the finitude of all of it, that it's all finite, that it has all of it runs out.
And that's when it becomes a comfort when a person dies and you go to a Catholic Mass and you say, okay, so there is something that connects us throughout time, space, into the afterlife.
And you kind of walk through those doors and all those big moments in your life.
Baptism, first communion, confirmation, when you get married, funeral for your loved ones, whatever.
And it's like, it kind of anchors you to the eternal.
And I don't know how, I honestly don't know how people live without that.
I don't know how people don't go absolutely crazy without that.
And even growing up without that kind of like moral language, without that foundation.
When I was a little kid at our church, there was like a giant ceramic statue of Jesus in front of the whole church, and his eyes followed you everywhere.
And you literally felt like God was watching you everywhere.
And he's not his like visage is not friendly.
It was like a severe, I don't know if that was just because it wasn't a great sculpture or what, but you're like growing up with this, really with like a conscience, you know, and with the sacraments.
I don't know how people get along in their life without that.
And, you know, I know that some people get away from it.
And I know that some people come back to it.
But if you don't have that foundation, if that's not like baked in, I think people really struggle without it.
So I'm very pleased when I hear that people are doing it for their family.
They become Catholic and it's because they had kids.
They want to bring their kids to mass.
You know, that's how you repair the world, I think, not to go full.
Hey, Nick, I was wondering if you are going to release a tutorial in the AF Ultra group chat on the angles you hit on Candace's walls to have a married mother of four still talking about you like this five months removed from contact.
George Farmer may even subscribe to get that knowledge.
The new is real slash JHA guys are just the post of the guy eating McDonald's, drinking beer and watching porn with the caption Israel tried everything to stop this, bro.
Eva La Hardingerbrook, who firmly denied Jewish power in her recent interview with Tucker, has been involved in several notable events in recent years.
Late 2020, Eva resigned from Forum for Democracy amid a crisis over anti-Semitic comments in the youth wing.
She publicly criticized leader Terry Bode's inadequate response.
So you're telling me that Ava Vlardingerbrook attended an outdoor lunch at Camelot Castle, owned by and hosted by John Mappin and his Kazakh Russian wife, Irina.
Then later in the year, she converted to Catholicism.
Her confirmation was attended by Mappin.
Year later, she marries some Italian aristocrat with noble titles.
I like Genesis 25, 20 states that Isaac was 40 years old when he married Rebecca, and most scholars agree she was in her mid to late teens at the time.
Isaac is an esteemed figure of the church, and yet Republicans today would lock him up without blinking.
The American Empire is openly an Anglo-Jewish shannonity.
By now, everyone should know America First is a world-spanning anti-Catholic, anti-European project, but because your critics are retarded, they will call you Hitler, Torquimado, or Mexican.
Your fan girls over on the bad website were dealing with Nick withdrawal so bad that they started shipping Jaden and Patrick, or as they call it, Jatrick.
So Carney in Canada is going to let, what is it, 70,000 Chinese electric vehicles, excuse me, in Canada, they're getting rid of this 100% tariff on electric vehicles.
That's a huge middle finger to America.
Hope you understand that.
So we should start bombing them.
Like we should start dropping B2 stealth bomber bombs on their heads.
I know you despise when people do this, so I apologize for spiking your corticelle, but I made a concept for a parody of the Greater Israel patches worn by the IDF.
The odd patch uses lyrics from an Israeli rock song, so I replaced them with something more American.
They can block everyone who is here illegally from the financial system like they did to you, and then prevent anyone here legally from sending money out of the country.
Well, and I love how, dude, it's literally like all roads lead to Rome with her, but with this Brigitte Macrone thing, it's literally the rabbit with the clock.
Why do you ask?
Charlie Kirk gets shot.
We find our way back to Brigitte Macrone.
I say on my show a couple of days ago, well, Epstein technically wasn't a pedophile.
Pedophilia's, you know, prepubescent.
She says it's about Brigitte.
She literally made it about Brigitte Macrone.
She goes, he's trying to convince the world that Satan doesn't exist with Brigitte Macrone.
And it's like, oh my gosh.
So it's like, is there even a word for this?
It's like you slip on a banana peel.
She blames Brigitte Macrone.
I've never seen anything like that before.
It's an insane preoccupation.
She literally brought that into it.
I was like, so what is me having this take about like child marriage?
And that's a, well, I don't, you know, you're saying, you know, like, it's okay to cook and be into it, but we do have to acknowledge it is kind of like, it is a little gay to cook.
Like, it's a little bit.
If you're out there, you know, saying like, my casserole's in the oven.
Like, you know what I mean?
Like, you go to, you go to a buddy's house.
Oh, I forgot my casserole's in the oven.
It's like, that's a little gay.
But, but cooking is great.
I like to eat.
So naturally, we need good cooks, but I'm not going to be doing the cooking.
Do you really see me taking a culinary class?
Is there something wrong with you?
You think I'm going to go to college of DuPage, march into a culinary class with my apron on?
Okay, time for cooking.
Like, seriously, I'm a famous millionaire.
You think I'm going to do that?
Like, you see me driving to the local community college to take a culinary class?
People would sit around and say the day Nick Fuentes came to South Carolina and he did things to that stupid fucking idiot that have never been done before.
A Mormon CIA agent in a murder and shirt traveled to Fort Wachuka in an Egyptian plane to meet with Erica Kirk, Brigitte Macron, and the B-Cult so he could steal Charlie's time machine.
I wanted to ask, what real stick action would you instruct us young American men to take going into adulthood that would allow us to actually make a difference?
Look good, get healthy, read as many books as you can.
Get a good college degree.
People say, how do I get a good college degree?
If you have bad grades, if you have a bad transcript, go to a community college, get good grades there, transfer into a more selective school inside your state for lower tuition.
Elite ball knowledge.
Go to a community college for two years.
Get your associate's degree.
Get straight A's.
You have better odds as a transfer student.
If you get better grades in community college, increase your odds that way too.
And if you do it in state, you get in-state tuition.
It's a lot cheaper.
And community college is cheaper than a big university.
So two years at community college, two years at university, much cheaper.
And you get the bachelor's from the big university.
That's my advice.
Get a degree.
Work on a skill.
You know, whatever your passion is, whatever you're good at, work on it as much as you can every day.
Learn how to socialize.
Read how to win friends and influence people.
You know, but you have to start to think in terms of how do I create value?
