Tucker and Steve Bannon Respond to Israel’s War on Iran and How It Could Destroy MAGA Forever
donald J trump gets elected in November on the back of this amazing coalition unprecedented coalition different parts of American society you never thought of anything in common trump paints a picture that makes it really obvious that the old structure left versus right Democrat versus Republican is basically BS and a control device i think this is my interpretation anyway so he creates this brand new coalition new York Times writes almost nothing about it because it’s such a massive threat but this coalition which you are you described earlier and more precisely than anybody by far is the defining fact of American politics and it kind of feels like it’s being blown up over this war on Iran that’s my observation correct me well I think if you look at the three planks no forever stop the forever wars uh seal the border and deport the the illegal alien uh you know invaders and redo the commercial relationships in the world around trade deals and bring high value added manufacturing jobs back here they’re trying to shut all three down right but the one that they the one that they’re obsessed with the most which I find strange is the Forever Wars they’ve got to be in the forever wars and particularly in the Middle East i mean this is what and I I’m a big supporter of Israel yes and I’m telling people hey if we get sucked into this war which inexurably looks like it’s going to happen on the combat side it’s going to not just blow up the coalition it’s also going to thwart what we’re doing with the most important thing which is the deportation of of the illegal alien invaders that are here if we don’t do that we don’t have a country and you just see right now they’re doubling tripled out this is actually potentially a real civil war in our biggest cities and President Trump has to have our backing so and this came out of nowhere i mean the the trade deals you saw he put he put together the liberation day but they’ve been thinking about a long time i mean Trump’s been talking about this since Lou Dobs back in the 90s he lays that out there it’s very sophisticated he’s got Scott Bessant running around with Lutnick they’re trying to make these deals uh he sealed the border already in the first 60 days now we’re really going down and actually having the deportation see the fight and then out of nowhere comes a war with Persia it’s like a shooting war with Persia a massive shooting war with Persia it’s like how did this happen and that’s why I’ve been up as a defender of Israel and someone that’s very pro-Israel i’ve been saying hey this is going to be the end of Israel because of the way these decisions have been made and you have I think shockingly today earlier when we had you on the show you bring up a point that we have to address which I think it’s the thing itself what is it about this apparatus when you have a coalition that’s like 1932 that’s coming together like like Roosevelt had Harvard professors and crackers and in uh and Democrats and ranchers out west and big city uh bosses and the Irish and the Italians and he put it all together and they juggled it and Brooklyn but Montana Birmingham Alabama and they’re all on the same side like how did that happen and they govern literally almost all the way to Trump you know Reagan took out part of it new Gingrich took out part of it but it was 50 60 70 years we have the same ability we have hardcrable Hispanics on the rear of Grand Valley in South Texas we have tech bros we have uh you know economic nationalists we have economic populists we have people that want to stop their forever wars there’s three planks and right at the beginning of it you know and it’s on the 10th anniversary of coming down the golden escalator that was 10 years ago Sunday and I tell people as many triumphs and tragedies victories and defeats good days and horrible days when we’re winning and sometimes we’re losing those 10 years of everything that’s gone on is just the preamble for where we are today on the convergence of these crises and now all of a sudden a shooting war where they’re taking the Nimttz battle group out of the South China Sea and sending three carrier battle groups now to the North Arabian Sea Red Sea plus Arley Burke uh destroyers and a whole fleet in the eastern Mediterranean we’re prepping for a major shooting war and how did it happen i think what’s most shocking is what you said hey it was like Iraq you’re inexitably just drawn and decisions kind of just happened it’s like what’s happened over the last 72 hours how do we even get to this point how did this actually happen who made these decisions when we had the intel out there that this was not like a thing this was something that was going to happen a year or two from now bb admitted to Brent Bear on Sunday night and so the question before us is not simply the Israel Persia situation is what the is going on in this city that just drives this city whether you’re Barack Obama or Donald Trump and if we don’t sort it out now and I mean right now that’s what we have to have a throwdown we have to name names we have to expose it if we don’t throw it out now throw down now in the summer of 2025 we’re not going to have a country you know forget the midterms forget the the the the next election still we have to have this what the CIA what happened in Ukraine what the CIA has done what DNI is doing what the Justice Department what what the FBI what DIA and the Pentagon because right now we only have a tenuous grip on those we have two people at FBI Cash and and Bonino we got a handful of people over at the a Justice Department in a massive 30 some person or 15,000 20,000 person operation we have a three or four people at DNI with 17 agencies we’re putting a couple of people in there at the Pentagon we got Pete and a handful a handful of guys and every time a guy steps up or the team steps up to say they want to stop the forever wars they’re turfed out he’s lost 10 people since we’ve even got there and every time Bridge Kobe tries to do something you know Bridge Kobe’s on the front page of uh that he’s an appeaser so my point is that we now we’re getting down to it with all these converging crises we have a apparatus that reports to Wall Street to foreign investors to Silicon Valley in business with the Chinese Communist Party that’s running the deal and now’s the time we got we if we don’t lance the bowl over this this country you’re not going if you can’t turn around with Trump the Trump team he has people like you myself and the are blessed to have these apparatuses if we can’t do this now it’s not going to get done and so that’s why to me it’s gone of everything we’re doing stopping the forever wars redoing the commercial relationships of trying to bring jobs back and sealing the border and sending home the 10 deporting 10 million which is going to be massive almost like a civil war in these big cities of all of those and I’ve always said the deportation is the most to get our sovereignty back the war we have to have now the throw down we have to have now is with the deep state and we can’t I think we’ve we’ve we’ve um looked away too often we just kind of kicking the can down the road and if we can’t do it now with Trump it’s not going to get done it does feel like um Fox News is playing and I never criticize Fox because they were so kind to me but they are playing a like a a central role in the propaganda operation here it feels like it’s it’s the what let’s go back to the Iraq war i mean you were there you saw it look at the Iraq war i promoted you when knowing because of the information you were giving knowingly what they did if you go back to look at Iraq it’s not like these things are successful they’re not successful they’re unsuccessful they can’t be successful because as Lincoln told us what you need is popular opinion to have your back and we don’t do enough about educating the American people on what reality is in fact they give them the exact opposite that’s why all that’s what this is the rise of Trump is from two things the rise of Trump is from the failed Iraq war and from the 2008 financial collapse exactly you you had Buchanan before that we had Perau before that we had even Reagan for some populism national you had these sprouts you could see people were trying to get there but they couldn’t it was those two cataclysmic events right an epic failed war right that we were lied to about everything the reason we went in because remember at first the American people supported it given the information they were given then later they realized that hey not just with the initial predicate for this a lie all the updates were kind of a lie right all the updates were a lie we really weren’t winning right until we sent General Kelly to the Amber Ambar province to be the toughest tribe it was it took forever and what 8,000 dead 50,000 wounded 9 trillion dollars two trillion in or seven trillion in Iraq and and two trillion in Afghanistan you’re just lied about the entire time that’s what’s happening here were not being dealt with straight and I’m just saying that on the information that’s put out the Israeli position on this has changed three or four times first it was the uh nuclear bomb the the processing there was going to be something like last weekend you had to go now you had to go on Thursday night it had to happen right then we find out it’s a year away at earliest and then it’s a decapitation strike they’re trying to have regime change that just kind of came up over the weekend and saying “Oh since they’re there we’re there we have to do it.” Understand they said “This is unilateral we’re doing our own.” But understanding that they needed American air assets on the defense to protect themselves and this is why the Arley Burke were rushed in and this is why American air defense assets have been used non-stop now they’re talking about “Oh by the way we really can’t take out Fedora we can’t take out the the hidden mountainous uh second part of this we need American combat sordies we need American tankers to refuel us we need the bust bunker busting bombs and we need assets this thing changes all the time when Tulsi Gabbard still out there as the last thing publicly said by a senior intelligence official she said it in March they don’t have a program they haven’t had a program and Brett Bayer asked that’s what Brett Bearer asked uh asked uh BB on Sunday night and BB said “Well we have new information new intelligence.” Well hold it we were told that we gave you exquisite intelligence you weren’t giving us intelligence exactly we have to have a total vetting and by the way we need to get a vetting on Ukraine we need to get a vetting on was American intelligence involved because it’s a zero probability that without our satellites without targeting the information without fire control information there’s no chance that the Ukrainians uh as courageous as they are as uh as as much valor as they have could have pulled out something so complicated and so this is right now the fight the fight has to be we have to take on the deep state we have to name names and we have to basically take these organizations and take them apart and that’s then you’re going to unmask everybody in DC that’s not really on your side you’re going to unmask all those people that say they’re conservative and say they’re Republicans when they start protecting this you’re going to say “Well hang on for a second this doesn’t mean we’re a constitutional republic trump’s commander-in-chief this is what a constitutional republic’s about i don’t care if AOC’s the president later on or Bernie Sanders or JD Vance another right-winger right now we have a system that’s like the Ptorian Guard it just it’s got its own national security policy it’s got its own reason for existence and it doesn’t care who whether it’s progressive like Barack Obama or a uh a economic populist nationalist like Donald Trump and so that is the fight we have to take on today you probably heard about eight sleep lots of people are talking about to make the case that no no I represent Trump he’s on my side i’m true MAGA and you wind up with these kind of hallucenic scenes where you have people who hated Trump who were never Trump mark Lean you know hates Trump which is fine he’s like the standard bearer for Trump but what makes it even more perverse is that these same people are allied with the deep state that is subverting Trump’s stated agenda which is negotiation toward peace both in Ukraine absolutely and in the Middle East trump has said “We want to get to an agreement with a lasting peace so we can all be richer safer and happier.” And in both places his so-called allies who secretly hate him have like destroyed that and most of those guys are almost all of them to a person for the Ukraine war people in your audience should understand one principal thing we are farther down the pike in a kinetic part of a third world war than how World War II started if you go back if you go back from September 1939 the invasion the start of the European war not the Asian but if you start with the invasion of Poland by the Germans and you go to 19 June of 1941 the invasion of Russia by the Vermach and you look at that time which really they called the phony war you look at the casualties from the battle of Britain the blitz the fall of France you look at what happened in North Africa early on Finland throwing 300,000 Finland you add it all up it’s not half of what’s happened between Ukraine and uh and Gaza today and now and now in Persia we are much bloodier this is a much we’re in a we’re in a shooting part of the third world war the third world is not about to start it has started and that’s what Trump is saying what he wants to do is have everybody lay their guns down let’s get to the table and figure out a tenuous at least c you know subtle piece that we can then use capital and trade and commerce and try to rebuild these countries and let’s get people back to work and maybe and tamp this thing down whereas the apparatus is doing is exacerbating the conflict part of it that’s where we are right now in the summer 2025 and that’s this thing is going to be in the next 200 days the next 200 days are some of the most perilous times for the American Republic in its history because if we don’t get this sorted we’re going to be drawn in totally into a conflict as a combatant as not a supplier of logistics or as an actual combatant a participant in the situation in Ukraine what they did in Russia and the situation of what Israel is right now doing uh to the moolas as bad as they are and as evil as they are right we’re going to get sucked into a shooting war of which it’ll be 10 years and the casualties will dwarf anything you saw in World War II one of the lessons that we never talk about from World War II since you evoked the comparison is that the second the shooting war started in Great Britain and the United States opponents of the war went to jail and Winston Churchill’s entire political opposition went to jail with their wives with their wives for the duration of the war and some of them died um that’s been completely that’s just a fact and you can call those people whatever you want and they may have been terrible people whatever but they were his political opponents and he put them in jail and and Roosevelt did you know sick the federal government on opponents of the war flat out so if Lincoln did the same and Lincoln did the same that’s exactly right I love and in areas that we control in the revolutionary war which not a lot the same thing happened that’s called war exact this is what happened exactly and opponents of war are invariably described as allies of the enemy and they’re persecuted do you worry about that happening to you you just said on camera “I don’t want this war but we’re moving toward a third world war.” Well I saw a look are you worried about going back to jail i went to I went to prison on a misdemeanor but it was kind of one of the same things i wouldn’t testify i wouldn’t turn because I said this committee is not legitimate doesn’t have a ranking member doesn’t have a minority council is totally legitimate plus he’s got executive privilege uh that’s good enough for me and I if I have to fight this and I think it’s going to go to the Supreme Court although I’ve served my prison sentence I’m taking it up to the Supreme Court because I had a pretty good ruling not terrible from the uh from the from the appeals court a couple of the judges are making arguments about why I should take it further it’s definitely going to happen look what’s happening to you i mean I’ve known you for a long time and I sit there and I look at what’s they’re saying about Tucker i said “What is Tucker saying so bad he’s kind of laying out these arguments that ought to be debated right now in the halls.” Very moderate tom Cotton’s coming out and saying all these influencers and podcasters aren’t well let’s have a debate when we had a debate about the Ukraine about the funding Ukraine in the Senate we beat him this is why Mitch McConnell had to resign we we could because why because the podcasters and influencers are much closer to the MAGA base and can deliver the heat into the House and the Senate and they know that i’m all for having a War Powers Act debate right now exactly i agree let’s let’s have the American people weigh in because you’re going to see the American people are 90% against uh forever wars and even people that support Israel are saying exactly what we’re doing here we thought we had this thing in Gaza you had to clean up with the Muslim Brotherhood in Hamas next thing you know we’re dropping we’re bombing uh we’re bombing uh Tran and you’re taking incomings what’s happened in Tel Aviv over the last 24 hours is pretty shocking because you’re taking these ballistic missiles what’s Trump’s been saying everybody calm down let’s get back to the table i can get actual thing he said “I can get it we can take it apart we can blow it up if we want to but I can cut a deal.” And Wickoff and Trump if you got to talk about two dealmakers that don’t are not like diplomats but guys actually going to get stuff done i feel more confidence with Steve Whitov and Donald Trump trying to work something out than continue on the shooting war where trust me with a carrier battle group heading over there and all these tankers heading over uh to uh to the Middle East we are prepping right now to come in on the offensive side of combat sorties and that’s a gamecher as bad as it is now that we’re a combatant because we are a combatant which I say if they’re unilateral why do we get sucked in here where is that decision where you said hey Steve decisions just get made and never know how they get made they’re organic they there’s never a moment where we stop and we say do we want to be involved in another Middle Eastern war you just wind up there just like everything in life you just like how did I get here but I think that’s why they’re attacking you because you’re saying hang over a second let’s have a national discussion on this right now before we get in and they don’t want that but why the viciousness not not toward me i mean I’m kind of punched out of society but like why why is it this topic evokes a a cruelty and a dishonesty that no other topic does never been questioned like this for there’s never been questioned out in the out in the open we’ve never had this debate that you’ve kind of led for the last couple of months and now we’re actually having this debate they’ve never had people uh in government like Tulsi Gabbard uh like uh like Bridge KBY like others and look I I don’t think bridge is hard enough in the Chinese Communist Party but his book was amazing and he’s got the pivot to Asia which we have to get to if people want to see how the institutions and apparatuses work and this is why the Democrats are all institutionalists now right we’re we’re the anti-institutional guys because we see how corrupt they are you you need not look further than SenCom one of the problems we have is that Obama tried it obama put his whole presidency on the national security side we’re going to pivot out of Asia we’re going to pivot out of Middle East to Asia the pivot to Asia put Joe Biden in charge after eight years he had one combat brigade of Marines Ford deployed to Brisbane Austral Darwin Australia that was it no other changes no other changes so here’s a company we’re always excited to advertise because we actually use their that that was like the I despise Obama i think he wrecked the country but I don’t think that’s a cra that was not a crazy idea to pivot we’re having this debate i had Flynn on today after you the same We’re having the same debate today remember the carrier battle group that’s over protecting Taiwan in the South China Sea is now in route to the Malaca Straits the Nimttz battle group is going to the North Arabian Sea so you’re a former naval officer give us a sense of the decision making process that leads to a move well here’s in in on November what 5th of 79 i’m a destroyer officer a navigator on a destroyer in a carrier battle group we’re doing the changeover from San Diego from we’re home port the third fleet to the seventh fleet all takes place in Hawaii the Hawaiian operator you do like three or four days of work up because they have a certain different lingo and a different tempo so you got to get to how they do it we get called in in the middle of night the red phone everybody line up single file and head into Pearl Harbor well Pearl Harbor as a C detail is almost impossible to do because it’s so narrow right and Honolulu’s up there so it’s not like World War II it’s very dangerous we go in there and we hear the hostages have been taking taken and now all of our assets in in in Korea in the South China Sea and in Japan are heading towards the North Arabian Sea which the United States Navy had never been at we had a couple of white painted destroyers in Bahrain but we were not we were not used to that so they go we follow a carrier all the way to Korea because you had to be we were a gas turbine we the only ones could keep over the carrier 35 knots for like two weeks damn we destroyed the ship we destroyed the sonar dome there because you go through a typhoon you go through some heavy weather because we had a treaty at the time with Korea we would keep a carrier battle group within a 24-hour strike of North Korea so we have to get there once we get there they peel us off us and our squadron of ships the the famous destroyer squadron 23 Arley Burks little beavers we go to the North Arabian Sea why they’re working up for and that is like a host i tell people if you haven’t been off the coast of Iran or Persia as I call it it’s like the landscape of the moon this is the most inhospitable place on earth the whole you’ve been the the streets of Hermuz the Persian Gulf the North Arabian Sea and our carrier battle group stayed we rotated out after about four months people stayed and eventually uh a couple months later actually did the failed rescar we practiced every day you could see every day hey they had the they had the lift capacity the helicopters were practicing going in we were actually going to do plane guard against potential Russian fighters in the in the Persian Gulf put the radars up because nobody knew what was going to happen it was a failed effort but I tell people and it turns out the Nimmits is now about to be decommissioned this may be their last cruise they were there 50 years ago is the first time they really got commissioned their first assignment was in Gonzo and Camel Station in the North Arabian Sea so these are big decisions the Pentagon makes when they particularly today when they decide to take a carrier battle group strike group away from the South China Sea in the defense of Taiwan given how on pins and needles we are there because the the Chinese Communist Party are not doing exercises they’re doing rehearsals for an invasion to take that out and to take it to the North Arabian Sea is signaling the world that we’re about to do something and that’s what’s so scary right now and when you get to your theory that these decisions you’re just been ex inexurably drawn in now we have all of our basically air assets that are ready to launch combat sordies on Tyrron and whatever else happens they’re in place so it just takes it’s not like you make a decision well it take us a week to get there they’re in place the tankers are over there we could do intank refueling so I think in the next 24 to 48 hours a decision could be made and that’s why I’m getting more and more vocal not less vocal that we need to go full stop right now we need to find out exact because there’s too many moving pieces moving pieces about exactly what’s going on what’s the risk uh we haven’t had a full debate about this and I would like to see some voices come forward i’d like to see Tulsi Gabbert come forward and tell us has anything changed in DNI which is 17 uh agencies including the CIA for this has anything changed from what you told the public at a hearing in March is it if it’s changed let’s just hear it i would like to have John Ratcliffe go to the sticks and I think Rackcliffe’s a good man john Ratcliffe should go to the sticks and say two things number one we had no involvement at all in the Ukraine assault and in under Russia just just say because he’s kind of been in hiding in that and then he ought be open to he’s never criticized no one ever criticizes John Radcliffe well the reason I think they’re not I think the reason they’re not criticizing John Rackcliffe and John Rackcliffe is a good man but you have to remember John Rackcliffe was a mayor of a small town in Texas that went to Congress did a great job people President Trump’s likes him a lot he’s he’s got Mike Ellis over there but they’re two guys right we don’t have 10 political appointees which we should have we got two guys running that building that’s the way the agency is structured there’s no civilian control no well you you know better than anybody but but it’s it it runs it runs the way it’s going to run i mean we sent Pompeo over there it’s an army it’s a business it’s a government see it’s aure it’s a venture capital it’s literally a venture capital firm and its budget is unknown its reach is and you know and we have no idea what they’re doing of course because the majority of things that they do are not you know US government employees doing even the door kickers no it’s they’re working through some exile group they’ve been funding for 30 years right they will also look you right in the eye oh I know and lie to you oh because that’s the the moldiness the willerness of mirrors right look look and they’re smart somebody said to me the other day someone knowledgeable said the problem with us government is like why can’t we do this or that and like if you wanted light rail you know we couldn’t do it and this person said because all the smartest people in government are at CIA yeah and they also with the inter agency process they control the entire process this is why downsizing NCS was so important when you have this we have these uh detaileles that come from all the different departments because NYSE should have 30 people but it had 250 there are 60 political appointees yeah right and there’s 280 come from different agencies to do all the different paperwork they have the inter agency process the CIA controls that process they control the process at the Pentagon they control the DHS they control over the Justice Department they are embedded deep because they’ve been around you know they’ve been around so long and they know how to embed deep right with the smartest people out there and so if you don’t get control of that you’re not going to get control they’re like a Ptorian Guard right now we have to we have to lance this this is like the Roman late stage of the Roman Empire when the Ptorian Guard kind of ran the deal and they would put forward every legionary captain that they thought was going to be good for a time and they are planning right now to thwart President Trump’s uh second term make sure they wait him out and they’re going to have a hand selected person for the third term and I don’t say this as a conspiracy theory guy this is just basic facts totally true they’re so clever that if you criticize them they will leak to people that you work for them i happen to know which is like kind of brilliant like if if you’re an effective critic of CIA Joe Kent I’ve lived this personally but also Joe Kent who’s just a wonderful man a totally sincere grand great man former CIA contractor lost his wife in Syria in Obama’s Syria war and um and became an opponent of the way things are running and they CIA played in his primary and the way they did it was by convincing Republican primary voters that Joe Ken who’s the single most effective critic of CIA in the United States was actually working for CI i mean like wow i I tip my non-existent hat in deference to the brilliance of that this is how brilliant they are you notice from President Trump the the arc that he went through on Friday i you know something’s up when David Ignatius at the Washington Post which we call the Langley Bugle he’s the head that comes up oh I’m aware when Ignatius comes out on Morning Joe and says “Trump is doing such a really magnificent job here he’s acting like the commander-in-chief.” That should be the red flare that goes up and goes “What the fuck?” No so I mean it’s too Have a TV because it’s too frustrating to watch like I don’t know a single person who doesn’t like David Ignatius personally and that would include me and he’s just such a courtly man he’s like the Murdoch he’s just you can’t dislike him he’s just got elaborate wonderful manners he’s very nice but like he is he is the spokesman for CIA and you wonder the Washington Post is the Langley the Langly Bugle when Lewis Joy West who was one of the last visitors to Jack Ruby in his cell before he went insane um was a CIA physician and you know deeply involved in a lot of really dark some of the darkest things we’ve ever done when he died I went and looked up the Walter Pinkis obit from the Washington Post walter Pinkis was the CIA i think Walter Pinkis wrote it and there was no mention in the Washington Post obit that Jolly West worked for CIA and it’s just like oh my god it’s like but you wonder like do people watching Morning Joe have any idea who these people are no that’s the whole the freaks me out picture the the book the guy just came out about the uh the Kennedy assassination uh and and the the the House and Senate committees it’s the Church Committee the biography of the Church Committee came out about a year or two years ago he talks about when it was first formed Frank Church was going to be one thing but they got Gary Hart in there who had just been elected exactly mike Mansfield the old head of you know really a guy knew how to run things right mansfield from Montana picked both of them church to head the committee but Gary Hart was going to be assigned to the CIA to find out what went on so Hart’s seeing Colby and seeing some of the former directors and and they and they tell him said “Hey the guy you really got to see all of them tell him say nice to have dinner you got to see Angleton.” Angle Angle Angleton runs the deal now he was the counterterrorism counter intel yeah a le legendary guy there forever and um he goes to I think the Metropolitan Club of course for dinner and Angleton would take a drink and Gary Hart’s sitting there kind of working him and so towards the end of the evening he can’t get up enough courage to ask like the question so finally he says I you know it’s about over I got to do this says look Mr mr angleton I just got a question um from the committee we we need to know did the did the CIA have anything to do with the Kennedy assassination he asked Angleton that he asked Angle it’s in the book hold it angleton taped another drink puts it down and goes “Uh Senator Hart uh you were uh Lord you were a theology major were you not?” He goes “Yeah as a matter of fact I was a theology so you know the the New and Old Testament pretty well.” He goes “Well well enough.” He goes “In my father’s house there are many mansions.” Gary Hart goes “What the fuck?” Didn’t ask another question went back to church in Mansfield mansfield goes “Okay shut it down.” He goes “No this is why they came out the CIA remember they had tried to kill guys in the Congo they even had the cigar and Castro nothing about the domestic stuff at all that all got shut down immediately and they figured oh it was a Lumumba in in in uh Patrice Lumba in Congo in Congo.” and they had tried to kill or killed three or four other guys maybe Deg Hammershar who knows but they definitely they got into all these things that the American people were interested in why are you killing foreign leaders but they didn’t get to the heart of many mansions Gary goes out I’m not going any further on this one right and within 10 years Frank Church is dead of galloping cancer and Gary Hart is totally destroyed 1988 through the the leading presidential candidate at the time oh yeah on with a picture it’s lured onto the monkey business and then they and then his house the first time they ever surrounded his house remember oh I I’ll never forget it at all and boy and the Washington Post led the char i’m not for Gary Hart or whatever but he by today’s standard crosswome though you’re going to you’re pay going to be payback it’s literally unbelievable but you can’t how do you have a real country in the middle of that like I don’t understand well you can’t this I think you make the point since 1963 it’s we’ve devolved and that’s I’m not kidding as Elon was the special government employee to do Doge to try to get waste fraud and abuse i think because we’re at war now and the war we’re at is an internal war it’s an internal war with this apparatus that we finally have a leader that could have the back of people that will go in because he wants it taken down i think he’s getting terrible advice around that someone like you not to organize it but who knows the history of these institutions and quite frankly where the bodies are buried have to come in as a special government employee to help get the people on the ground going to organize we have to go to war against the deep state now if we don’t go to war with the deep state immediately and have a couple of wins that we can point to and some momentum and put them on their back leg their back foot in the next 200 days nothing in America is going to change and we should be clear about who’s serving its interest tom Cotton who’s the chairman of the Senate Intel Committee the Select Committee on Intelligence um was one of the primary drivers of secrecy around the Kennedy files so Tom Cotton I think was born in the 80s and I like Tom Cotton a lot i know him know his wife who worked at CI nice super nice people but when it came down to it when Trump gets elected and gets inaugurated in January Tom Cotton’s B he’s denied this but he’s lying because it’s true i know for a fact tom Cotton’s running around being like “Well whatever we do we can’t put people in place we’re going to declassify all the Kennedy assassination files.” 62 years later I think Tom Cotton was born in the 80s why would it’s not a sources and methods thing anymore what is that why would Tom Cotton be so concerned about releasing the Kennedy documents that he’s trying to prevent people from getting jobs on the basis of his belief that they might reveal those documents like what is that because that’s it’s disqualifying he shouldn’t be in the Senate of course he knows that that is the key that can pick the lock that something happened in 1963 we had a coup d’etat yep yes the country’s never faced up to it the country understands that like 80% something’s dead wrong they understood at the time the Warren Commission was guncted you go back and read this new book even by a New York Times writer you see how what a joke it was how the FBI stepped in immediately jerry Ford was their guy it was a complete joke who was made president without an election made president without election i’m just saying there are no coincidences jerry Ford of the Warren Commission becomes president without an election and you’re like the if you go I’ve read the testimony of Warren Commission just in the Warrant Commission that in the in the sixth floor in the depository where the gunman sat right next to him the guy I think his name was Willie Davis he was a worker of the of the black guys were up on the top deck pointing afterwards when the shot took place he was going to go join those guys he actually sat there and had his lunch right next to where the assassin was now you know assassins and and and CIA and and Navy Seals I mean their hearts beating out of their chest before that happens because they understand it may be the last time they take a breath on Earth is when they fire so they are really ready to meet their maker and they’re highly focused the last thing you’re going to do on Earth is get that target that is just is just these cartons just suppressing by a few feet this guy’s giving testimony and it’s unbelievable they go “Well you were there.” “Yes.” “What were you doing?” He says “I was eating a uh a chicken sandwich a bag of Fritos and a and a Coke.” And and they’re going “You’re right next to him and everything’s going and you’re hanging on the edge of it.” And then all of a sudden Jerry Ford steps in and goes “Excuse me I have a question do you have a criminal record?” And and the guy goes “Excuse me?” He goes “Do you have a criminal record?” And the guy goes “Wow I was picked up.” “No no no you’re a felon right?” And the whole conversation drops i go “Oh my god we’re literally at the moment and literally f 10 minutes before the shot takes place we have a witness that’s there and you got to ask him did you hear anything did you see anything?” No and and Jerry Ford told as you mentioned with Angleton and the guys a few years later out of nowhere on a on a uh on a on Watergate another operation they were deeply involved in right uh he’s made vice president of the United States yeah but because the president’s most popular president in American history is undone by a naval intel officer posing as a journalist exactly um just from the Washington Post you probably have a lot going on in your life meaning you don’t want to waste a lot of time thinking about life insurance though you know you so you wonder like a lot of this is taking place in private and it’s one of the great frustrations as an American is you don’t know what your government’s doing and you have no way to find out even when it’s done 60 years ago you don’t know but some of it’s taking place totally in public the Tom Cotton stuff and it grieves me to say this because I like Tom and I think he’s smart really smart actually and a good guy in a lot of ways but he’s acting on behalf of CA not on behalf of the people of Arkansas obviously but then there’s Lindsey Graham who’s like Floridaid out in public like there’s no kind of hiding who Lindsey Graham is and what how does what is that yeah the whole Ukraine thing he and Pompeo how the weekend before the drone assault takes place he’s in Ukraine saying something’s going to happen he’s in France i mean if you talk to people over there it’s like he had inside baseball he was all jacked up that good things are going to happen pompeo’s in like Odessa giving a talk i mean what does Mike Pompeo there’s a middle of a war over there we’re trying to extract ourselves what does Mike Pompeo in Odessa given some you know a rally speech essentially pump these guys up and he’s talking about certain things that could happen or certain positive things to hang in on this war exactly what President Trump’s counter to president Trump is trying to have everybody lay down their guns and let’s because right now the British papers report is a million Russians dead or wounded there’s 750,000 uh Ukrainians dead or wounded i mean this has been devastating like World War I type of uh of casualties president Trump is sitting there going “We need to put the guns down i need to get people at the table we need to talk we’ll even buy your dirt we’ll buy your rare earths we’ll put money in.” Which we oppose but if President Trump thinks he needs that for a peace deal we’ll support him what is What is Mike Pompeo and Odessa jacking these people up what is Lindsey Graham over there jacking people up about these questions have to be asked we have to ask what part of our government is going against the commander-in-chief and what the commander-in-chief is is trying to do is it legal for Lindsay to do that well there’s Logan Act you know I I called for his arrest good right absolutely or canceling his passport do two things either don’t lay back in the country or arrest him and and I’m adamant about this and Pompeo also because I think there are arguments around the Logan Act that they’re over there countering what the commander-in-chief is trying to do and I think and they have security clearances too which I don’t have and uh you don’t have I assume a security clearance not anymore right but why does I don’t want one right now no I don’t either but because you said “Hey I don’t blame me don’t blame me i didn’t see Why does Lindsey Graham and why does Mike Pompeo have a security clearance?” Well I think you got to ask Mike because I’m very disappointed in him i I knew him for years i The guy I know today the guy I see today is not the guy I knew and I think I think people have to I think they ought to come on when they come on TV is they ought to have the like NASCAR drivers like who’s on the whose payroll they on exactly right we the American people at least ought to be in a Chiron who they’re taking money from but who what’s the deal with Lind Lindsay for um 25 years and it’s impossible not to like Lindsey Graham he’s one of the most charming funny he’s just a wonderful person to travel with um he’s the most charming person in the world i’ll just say that because it’s just true i like him if he was here I would be having fun with Lindsey Graham but his effect on the United States is so destructive i don’t understand what that is what is his motive you know him well of course cuz you’re Well I know look I think number one he’s very involved in the Pentagon on Armed Services Committee the Pentagon the building runs like the building’s going to run i mean it’s a trillion dollar why when President Trump says we’re going to go to a hemispheric defense from Greenland to block the Russian submarines to Alaska maybe Canada for the Arctic because that’s the new great game of the 21st century to to the Panama Canal because we’re going to block the Chinese and Russian nav and get the Chinese out of the Caribbean we’ll deal with Venezuela we’ll have the Central Pacific which has always been kind of our strategic pivot the three island chains and America’s hermetically sealed you you add a golden dome or some sort of ballistic missile America can live in peace and we can do great and we can do expeditionary not that we’re not engaged in the world you can do expeditionary forces anywhere you want in the world you can’t put Chinese infrastructure in St croy which they have a lot of in St croy which we control exactly so you can’t let the Chinese control your hemisphere that seems reasonable and they’ll say to us “Okay get out of Japan.” At which point you say “Okay this I mean that seems like logical this budget is not a trillion dollars going up right because right now it’s over a trillion dollars if you add the supplement that’s coming in the reconciliation bill with the NDAA you’re over a trillion dollars and it’s only going to keep increasing this is the way the defense contractors make money they embed it over there they kind of run the building right now you don’t see any push back by armed services in fact every district’s got huge plants as you know our industrial policy that we do have is really around arms manufacturing right and it’s a it’s a high margin business and we want to sell weapons to the entire world it’s that system that’s running the country remember the difference between President Trump’s first term and his second term is what happened under Biden is a massive concentration of power because they didn’t back Lena Khan or the antitrust people like we have now in President Trump’s administration like Gail Slater and what’s happening to the FTC under Andrew Ferguson taking big tech to court and trying to break them up right now you have uh Wall Street you have big tech you have big agriculture you have big pharma you have the big healthcare industry you have the defense contractors you have the concentration these massive industries that have every lobbyist every uh every uh uh communications expert all the big law firms on their payroll if you and I wanted to start today and say “Hey guess what we want to take on one of the industries let’s pick let’s take on big egg.” You literally can’t get a great law firm to represent you or great lobbyist because they’re all they’re all hired by these guys that concentrate and they’ll set up regulatory hurdles that are insurmountable this is the regulatory capital i’m living that in something that we’re doing on the side and you just find out that it’s like crazy that concentration of power oh my god regulatory capture and really regulatory merger it’s we said when we gave China everything after Tanaman Square when we gave most favorite nation status and WTO and access that that the more they more they get prosperous by because they were a backward agricultural country at the time the more prosperous they get the more they’ll become like a liberal democracy like the United States i remember that we actually have copied the model of the Chinese Communist Party they have a handful of stateowned industries very powerful merged in with the central government an authoritarian government that’s what we have and that’s what President Trump the promise of President Trump is to break that the American people don’t want it they hate it now they need the tools to do it and that’s why I think this next couple hundred days coming after the 10th anniversary of really President Trump because what happened at the top of the escalator Trump was in seventh place because people didn’t know if he’s serious about running or not he had just gone to CPAC I think 90 days before in in the 2015 CPAC trump finished seventh in the poll at three and a half percent i remember behind all these guys at the top of the escalator he’s in seventh that night they do a flash poll I think on CNN he’s first why that talk was in a nomenclature and a vernacular the American people weren’t hadn’t heard from a politician about the border about deportations about China about bringing jobs back about ending the forever wars and remember as the campaign went on he goes to South Carolina i’ll never forget it and in South Carolina he literally blew up the entire not just Bush apparatus kind of Fox and kind of everybody on the right that had been in there and when he said it you could hear the audience gasp and so many commentators came on and said “Well that’s the end of him.” Because they all said that except me cuz I was the only one at Fox News who I knew i was like “Yes thank you for telling the truth finally.” But everybody around you was that he’s finished they hated me for agreeing with them hated me personally and he won in a landslide carl Ro never who was my neighbor and always got along with him again perfectly charming guy sort of um very not a good person at all but but smart and you know Carl but after that that’s that was the moment I realized it was in that Greenville South Carolina debate that all that mattered to them was a projection of force abroad that’s it everything else was just because they were so shocked he said it and united in the fact that he can’t win that’s when Bill Crystal turned against him was that night and if you Look you could look it up check his Twitter feed the day before Crystal was like you know Trump’s kind of a pig but he’s our pig and actually we can kind of use him and maybe we should make peace with Trump bill Crystal said that who I used to work for for many years the day after that Greenville debate he took the position that he has now which is you know we’ll destroy the country to prevent Trump from exercising power like he was a sworn enemy of Donald Trump’s after that when he came out against the Iraq war how weird why did if you hit some if you killed a child in a DUI okay you’re drunk you accidentally run over a child there’s no possibility you could meaningfully advance in American life because people would say “We’ve forgiven you Steve but you did something that irresponsible it’s just horrible i It was a mistake.” Yeah it was a mistake but it was horrible we allowed the architects of the Iraq War who gravely injured the United States got all these people killed Americans killed to continue to advance they were never held to account for what they did ever at all well they became the head of the World Bank how did we do that the spectre of that is what we’ve faced over the last 72 hours this is exactly the same pitch as the Iraq war weapons of mass destruction you have to get it so they they understand one thing they think the playbook works this is why we have to stop it now if we don’t stop it now we’re we’re it’s going to work all the time they think that playbook of lulling the American people to sleep and tell them there there’s there’s these evil people that have to be taken down and if they’re taken down everything’s going to be fine after that and that we face an apocalypse if that doesn’t happen they’re running the Iraq war playbook over again with almost some of the same players or at least the proteges right in the verticals of who those players were but why does institutional conservatism allow it if Mike Pompeo shows up at the you know Republican county of of dinner in some state like he’s treated as I was in a restaurant with him recently everyone’s like “Oh Mike Pompeo.” He’s treated as like a legitimate person no one has ever The right does not hold its own people accountable on the most basic well we say the right the Republican party is controlled opposition okay they’ve t they because they’ve never really put a fight let’s go back to the three central tenants of Trumpism you know immigration border and sovereignty uh trade and ending forever wars the official apparatus of the Republican party hates all three of those and doesn’t agree with and doesn’t agree with any of them still true it’s 100% this is Look look what happened here in the last 24 hours on the immigration side all of a sudden there was a pro they promulgated that um because of big agricultures needs uh that we can no longer have raids on farms raids in hotels all of it that that had to be countered by President Trump saying “Hey there’s 20 men illegal aliens i’m going to get them all out of here.” And then today or this morning he came out with we’re going to triple down the raids in sanctuary cities right i’m going to get all these guys out of here no this huge institutional fight led by Fox News right their biggest is the Forever Wars but if you look at the Wall Street Journal and if you look at Fox News on the trade and bringing jobs back from China they’re very ambivalent about that they’re talking about the cost of living i mean they’re putting up that you know because they’re all free traders which is the way the country got in the in the in in the first place they’re also quite ambivalent on um on on the immigration and mass deportation remember mass deportation is just not the criminals you have to get President Trump said they 20 million i I say it’s 10 came in on Biden’s watch they all have to leave but you’re seeing a lot of ambivalence of that particularly the Republican party they’re saying the Wall Street Journal says “Well no they they add 2% one and a half to 2% to GDP right because they buy so much stuff number two they’ve driven down wages among particularly low-skilled black and Hispanics i say “This is why we put the coalition together this is why 39% of black men are voting for us this is why South Texas is now mag territory because they understand their wages to be driven down.” So I think the Republican party hates the basic tenants of President Trump’s platform particularly the mo one they most hate is ending the forever wars that’s tied to both Wall Street it’s tied to the defense industry it’s also tied to this mentality that we have an American empire remember you and I saying “Hey we are actually a republic we want to go back to being a republic.” Like the founders of our country when they set the constitution they looked to republican Rome that was their source of thing not the Roman Empire what we’ve done in fact they said I think it was General Washington don’t go over seas looking for monsters to slay exactly right we have enough to do here let’s do this and I think that that’s why we’ve gotten so far off track and we have an American empire that empire has to be taken apart brick by brick because all it’s done is to basically destroy the inner workings of the United States and just particularly destroy the very people who are the cannon fodder uh in these wars right and that’s why destroy the nation drive around drive around the country just get in your vehicle and drive and I don’t see how anybody could say things are better now than they were 15 or 20 years ago or 40 years ago it’s a disaster and so the empire destroys the country and you add on top of it the national debt and the trillion dollars every month and the the discussions we have a discussion doge goes to a bunch of different places but they never go to the Pentagon they’re not really allowed to go to the Pentagon we have a a budget that we’re talking about how do we make these cuts how do you cut Medicaid had he cut the food stamp program which all have to be looked at and done but it’s sacri we can’t even talk about defense we have a trillion dollar defense budget and I keep saying Trump’s laid out a strategy of hemispheric defense it’s very different than post-war where we’re everywhere the American empire in really around the ring of the Eurasian land mass right and I said he he’s talking about a hemispheric defense the budget is totally misaligned with the hemispheric defense both in the allocation to the navy taking down big army but hey baby the defense budget is going to And you’re not going to cut a a penny out of it because like you you’re raising your voice as someone that that likes Israel and agrees with is Israeli n you’re saying that you raise your voice and all a sudden you’re being eviscerated that you’re an enemy of the Jewish people that you’re an anti-semite that not just that you’re an appeaser and he said Tucker is a pacifist right appeasing a pacifist because they understand show up at my house and find out how far my pacifism extends no I mean it’s No it’s all it’s slander and it’s it it bothers me simply because it does convince people whose opinions I care about and I who I care about personally um and it it fractures relationships and it also comes from people I know really well and that Ari Felicher who I’ve never you know like respected but I always liked him and I um he wrote something somebody sent me this thing yesterday and you know I’m just a carnival barker and I’m pretending to have my views and I I texted him and I was like “Come on.” Like this is not you know I may be totally wrong you of course disagree with me that’s fine but you know that I’m sincere i’m totally sincere why else would I do this of course he didn’t respond to me but it’s painful who every day went to the podium and told us they’re another day away from finding weapons of mass destruction how could they sit there in lie of the nation now I am quite serious given because you’re a product of Washington DC there’s no one better in an emergency we have an emergency we have a break the glass emergency to actually be an adviser to the president right in a temporary thing than you who know the whole you know the canvas not that you were organ but you could sit there in the in the in the NSC in the in the tank or the tanks of the Pentagon but down with the Kennedy room and actually walk through this is the apparatus this is what we have to do this is what we have to do with the FBI this is what we have to do with the CIA this we have to do with DNI the Pentagon and then we have people execute that never survive that but I mean I don’t come back i had breakfast alone in the dining room of the Metropolan Club this morning it’s a place I love it’s the only person there it’s me and the waiters who I know well and love and the second I walk outside that building I’m like “Whoa the vibe in this city is bad it’s bad.” Can you feel that you feel it ever since ever since uh President Trump left in January 2021 because it was an armed camp then we had around the I I had left by then i was like I’m out you came to the war room we had a 100 National Guard troops yeah with two Humvees bobwire everywhere it took from the guys at Fox and One America to come up to the war room it’s only a fiveminute walk up the hill 45 minutes to get there you had to go through checkpoints ever since that time and I hate to say with all the positive energy President Trump has brought it’s still a dark spectre the this imperial capital is probably and I tell you why they understand there’s an internal civil war here that one side’s going to win and one side’s going to lose their their belief is they’re going to wait us out that for all the Tucker Carlson’s and Steve Bannons and other people around President Trump are sitting there going the Bobby Kennedys right and other people that know how this apparatus works at every level and are sitting there going we have to do this now they believe that they will weigh President Trump out and I don’t put a a a possibility of an assassin if President Trump is to go too far into this and bring you into that do not think they would not think of an assassination attempt they have no intention of turning over control and power of the most powerful empire in man’s history it has to be taken from them and I tell people we either do it now if we don’t do it now this this wave of kind of people that have come together uh we’re not going to be able to do it and if we don’t do it I’m not sure we win another election because I think people they’re going to force us into doing either not deporting the 10 million right and not securing the border not forcing China and not really cutting tough deals to start to bring real high value added manufacturing jobs back because Wall Street doesn’t want that they don’t they think our labor cost is too high they think the environmental cost is too high they love the slave labor of La Jen and most importantly they’re not going to stop the war machine they’re not going to stop and I’m not a pastor i spent eight years of my life as a naval officer my daughter went to West Point she fought in in Iraq in 2010 under Obama right it’s not that we’re pacifists we’d see what we see and what we see now is a very evil spectre over this imperial capital and one side is going to win the President Trump kind of rebels or revolutionaries versus this Ptorian guard apparatus and that’s why this fight to me is going to happen the next two or 30 hundred days we’re going to we’re going to know what side this is going we we’re going to know if there’s enough momentum on our side to actually win yeah there’s a you It’s a spiritual thing and you can I texted my wife this morning second this administration’s gone I’m never coming back here and I mean I spent got here in 1985 and it’s really shocking you see you feel that though when you hear Yeah it’s just dark it’s super dark and where I live normally is very you know it’s not thriving at all it’s poor and there are lots of problems and people die of drug ODS and all that but you don’t feel a lot of people die of drug ODS but you do not feel this kind of when we sold our house 5 years ago my wife sold it over the phone and next thing I know there is a was a great beautiful house super pretty house not huge but beautiful in the District of Columbia and she sells it to a CIA officer cash and the next thing you know there’s a Ukraine flag flying from my flag pole I’m not making this up and my neighbor sent it to me he’s like “Oh look what happened to your house a house I really loved.” And I was like “Wow that’s just metaphor.” But okay so um let me ask you you’ve made a couple of illusions i almost don’t want to ask you because it’s upsetting but um to the country coming apart to conflict here clearly there’s been a rise in violence um this weird Minnesota story which I’m not even going to ask you about cuz I don’t understand it at all i don’t think anybody does but I want to ask you about what’s happening in California it does seem like resisting federal authority on immigration is an act of sedition more profound than anything they did at Fort Sumpter in 1861 and I this is not resolved like I don’t what are we watching right now in California with Gavin Newsome you’re you’re from DC i’m from Richmond i’m raised in Richmond and I keep telling people I thought we settled this about federal law and and states rights and succession in the mid1 1860s we had a civil war to determine the outcome of this we’ve had that discussion we’ve had that argument it’s been settled i said this to President Trump in the first term that this whole thing of sanctuary cities and sanctuary states is absolutely a neoconfederate you know mentality yes that you can have Gavin Newsome right have you said that War Room yes I’ve said that neo Confederate he’s It’s a neo confederate it is that’s exactly what it is i’m stealing that by the way no no no because so good jackson look he had this thing before the Civil War with with Andrew Jackson and John C calhoun yeah on tariffs where they remember the the landed aristocracy in South Carolina were some of the richest people i think Charleston had more what would be equivalent to billionaires at the start of the Civil War than any place on earth and it shows in the battery it’s a magnificent city today um John C calhoun’s vice president was going to stop and go down and defend uh South Carolina said “We’re not going to do these tariffs.” And Jackson said “Uh I’m going to call the army down there and if Calhoun’s defying me I’m going to hang him from the first lamp post.” I mean Jackson was a guy was going to take immediate action what’s happening in California is kind of the equivalent you’ve had the sanctuary cities and if President Trump had not sent the troops in and federalized the National Guard what what happened in LA was what we see in all these cities it would explode it had been the summer of love of of 2025 where there was a lot more rhetoric than actually action one of the reasons President Trump had Bill Bar and Esper and all these people that wouldn’t execute what he wanted now he’s got a team and that’s why I’m so glad he came out last night and says “I’m doubling and tripling down the rates.” My recommendation on the show the day after the stuff happened over that weekend was President Trump ought to triple the ICE raids and he ought to go to you know he ought to go to schools hey they got to go right they have to go and it’s not pleasant we got to be very humane about it but you have to have a show of force and if you need to send in the army if you need to send in federalized National Guard we have to do it california is the rail head of this that’s why you have to break it there it’s going to obviously pop up in Chicago and New York but you have to take and Stephen Miller said this i’ve known Stephen a long time you know Andrew and Steven Miller and Ben Shapiro Alex M they all came out of kind of West LA right ben might have been the Valley but they’re all West LA guys steven Miller has been saying since the time I knew him the war for America is going to be won or lost on the streets of Los Angeles he said this now for almost 20 years and this is what this fight and this is what’s so disturbing about the timing we’re totally focused on that and President Trump actually implementing the deportations of mass deportations and all of a sudden this thing breaks out in in in Persia in the Middle East and now the whole country is just focused on that it’s almost like a time diversion to get our attention feel that way because BB gave it up there was no it didn’t have to happen on Thursday night we were told what was leaked oh there’s a bomb and they’re going to have it and you know this is something they have to have immediately immediately immediately he comes on Brett Bearer and says well it’s 12 or 13 months we’ve heard the 12 or 13 months for 20 years maybe it is 12 or 13 months but that doesn’t mean you have to act on Friday why is it Thursday and Friday when we’re in the middle of actually the most important part of this third world war is the 10 million invaders we’ve had in this country or 20 million according to President Trump they all have to go you understand that there’s many bad actors that came in on this right that are now sleeper cells in this country everybody’s got to go and we have to do it that is the when I talk about third world war the central battlefront for the United States of America is internal to the United States of America this is why we have to focus on this in the timing because there’s no coincidences of how all of the sudden we’re asked to do bombing runs in in Iran a half a world away and it sucks up all the media attention that you don’t even you don’t even there’s not even a discussion on this and that’s why President Trump coming out doubling down and Homeman and Steven Miller there ought to be three more raids tomorrow and we got to get the focus back on that so how should you deal with I mean when Orville Fobis who was the governor of Arkansas in 1956 presides over the state that refuses to desegregate after the Supreme Court says you have to desegregate in Brown versus Board and Dwight Eisenhower who’s not a liberal says you can’t ignore federal authority on a federal issue this is a Supreme Court decision and he sends the 101st Airborne to Little Rock to Central High School and says “Sorry you’re going to desegregate.” Now whatever you think of that it’s kind of disgusting in certain ways but it’s also essential to preserving the union i mean I don’t understand like how can you have your biggest state being like no to the federal government like what on a central issue on a central issue who lives here yes who takes federal benefits you know who’s actually a citizen who has allegiance to this country who gets to choose our leadership right in a in a Democrat this is why this is why this radical neo-Marxist Democratic party will fight this is the hill they will die on so but I don’t understand how you can put up with that how can you put up with that that’s like maybe a little more important than whether Iran gets the bomb well you can’t and by the way the American people the American people don’t I think it’s like 6040 where they agree with President Trump on these mass deportations remember one of the reasons we’re winning the African-American vote is President Trump does not believe like the Democratic Party and Kla Harris in mass incarcerations he believes in mass deportation when I was in prison the only thing I put up from Danbury was like on the 26th of August i said “Hey victories at hand.” I can tell from the prisoners in Danbury the Hispan young Hispanics and blacks who hate the Democratic party and they particularly hated Kla Harris because said “Look the Democratic parties for mass incarcerations to break our families and to make us dependent upon the government i mean these guys were smarter than guys going to Yale and the political science department because it’s a lived experience of them and they support mass deportations because in a place like Danbury 10% of the prison is bad ombres from these other countries that are the most dangerous criminals convicts you have in these prisons people at the street level have our back on this this is this new coalition but we have to we have to succeed in this we have to succeed in the deportations and getting wages to rise in fact I think there was just something in the Wall Street Journal they said wages for low-skilled workers are coming up right because guess what you have less nonitizens here competing as a people in their own country shouldn’t have to compete against a non-citizen for a job this is President Trump’s the centerpiece of the entire Make America Great Again movement and that’s why it has to succeed and everybody now in the official political apparatus is trying to thwart him in this and this is why it’s so important for him to go and the deep state is also remember one of the reasons that DHS is burning through money and there’s not as many deportations you talk to to the guys at the White House you talk to guys at DHS they’re still playing by the old playbook in other words they have to have a deportation order from a court they go to a guy’s house and make sure there’s no kids around they take like 20 agents a week to go serve on two people and get them out of here well obviously that doesn’t that’s the old playbook you have to get much more aggressive on your deportations i think Miller and Homeman are trying to change the culture over there to actually do it but even there the apparatus it’s a the administrative state’s got its own mind how they’re going to do things i think this is one of President Trump’s big battles my last question has to do with like the first principle from which these positions flow which is there’s a certain segment of our population I think the majority who think the US government’s job is to help American citizens in America but there is another very powerful segment which is most of the US government that believes the opposite 10 years ago I’m on an Anfra train to New York from Washington for work at Fox and I get a call from a neocon writer called Julia Ayafu I think is Russian born uh writing for the New Republic and she says to me and at this point I’m like she thinks I’m a neocon or something but she’s calling me for like what do we make of Trump and she goes Trump’s calling himself a nationalist she was like way offended and it was just primma facial like nationalism bad and I said well I’m I’m a nationalist and she goes she’s not stupid and she goes you’re a nationalist I said well I don’t know I think I am I mean I like America I think the US government should work for America she was like horrified and I don’t think I’ve ever spoken to her again why does that idea which is non-threatening it’s not a Nazi idea it’s like a basic idea was the founders’s idea that the US government should act on behalf of Americans why is that offensive so offensive to some people what is that i’m going to tell my Mark Levin story because I I like Mark a lot although and I think he’s one of the smartest guys in the constitution although I will say I think we’re opposed on every big topic dealing with MAG President Trump just saying because Mark is a neoliberal neocon and that’s what Fox is right which is different than populism nationalism totally different the two different totally different and I’ve always gotten along with Mark yeah and this is why neoliberals this is why neoliberal neocons the whole Fox apparatess this is what the Murdexs are they’re much there’s just a difference you know Gorvadal said it’s just two sides of kind of the same coin that run the American empire because American empire is run on neoliberal principles and neocon principles so Mark when I kept saying nationalism and populism and nationalism he calls me up and as you know Markxy goes Bannon he goes you got to drop nationalism and I go uh this is 10 years ago 12 years ago I first doing it at Breitbart and I go I go why he says it it’s Americanism and I go no Mark it’s actually nationalism right and I try walking through he goes no no no no it’s Americanism and then he puts out a book later I think Americanism which talks about certain tenants of nationalism but they don’t want to use that phrase I think because of connotations that came from Europe in the 19th century and then obviously in the 20th century i said this is this is completely different it is populist nationalism it is a populist movement that puts America first and American citizens first that’s the big part of the nationalism they never get to that is what Unite says but how could they see that as bad i’m so I’m honestly 10 years in I’m I’m baffled by it like what’s that if you mention if you mention that word they just they they get lit up i have still many people today if people accuse me oh in fact Ben uh and Ben Shabur is one of the smartest guys in the country ben uh said when I was running Breitbart when he left u whether he left Arizona quarter or fired him is still a matter of debate still a matter of debate uh Ben goes I turned I turned Breitbart into Trump Pravda right with the populist uh nationalism and away from Andrew’s core tennis so listen that is an ideological fight about nomenclature which is very important in us going forward but the tenants of it and what we’re trying to do I think is what you’re seeing President Trump do we have a government apparatus of these people that when institutions carry on year after year after year and pass the baton and they control and you know many of these people most of them come from middle class backgrounds they’re not they’re not coming just from elite no they’re not Rockefellers not Rockefeller there are some Rockefellers and there’s some some Nepo babies but they’re irrelevant yeah mainly it’s just middle class people but they’re in control of the greatest most powerful apparatus on earth and you mentioned earlier today the thought of going into war and actually killing people that’s something that turns certain people on the power of it right now and that’s why I say tell people when you come to Washington you can really feel it’s a spiritual war yes because of the dark spectre that hangs over this town now that spiritual war manifests itself in money and power yes and you see so many people I’ve seen come here in Congress and and people I’ve known that come here and they get corrupted and they get corrupted because that basic human nature of being attracted to money and power is is very tough and that’s we’re in a situation now that people we admire people we like people we’ve known we have to go to war with them this war against this apparatus is going to be as brutal as the war we’re fighting in the streets of Los Angeles today to make sure that actually Los Angeles is part of this American republic because right now California is not but the major cities in this country led by Los Angeles and San Francisco are definitely not they’re a totally different entity i’m sad to hear you say that because the last thing I want to do is spend my day arguing with Ben Shapiro or Mark Levin i mean I agree with those guys on a lot and I know them of course i’m not mad at them personally even now i don’t want to fight with them you know what I mean i want to fight with George Soros or something or Gavin Newsome and but I feel like they are making it impos this is my read probably self- serving but I feel like they are making it impossible to sit back in silence as they wreck the country and that fight as important as that is to me is a secondary or tertiary fight right now than the fight that we need you on in the fight we need you on you have a unique historical understanding of the institutions of this town and the smarts we need a handful of smart people around President Trump they’re saying this is the look we put Cash and Bonino in the FBI we’ve put uh Ellis and uh in Ratcliffe the CIA we put a handful of great people at DOJ we put Pete and a handful of great people at defense we put Tulsi and Joe Kent a handful of people at DNI it’s not enough the apparatus still runs the deal we are hanging on in a very tenuous shape we need to go to war like they want to go to war in in in Persia we need to go to war with them and I mean take the sword out of the scab and throw away the scabbard we have to do that now damn if I got anywhere near any kind of institutional power which I’ve never saw it and I don’t seek now but if I ever did you know I I think the Tom Cotton and the donors and people like that I mean I think they I mean I think that would be really hard i think they put kitty porn on my computer I’d get pancreatic i don’t know man i think first off just the announcement of that the intention of that would unmask we need part of this is going through an unmasking who’s on our side and who’s not on our side because a lot of people that are pretending to be on our side are on the opposite side and we can go through a great unmasking fear is sincerity because I’m hardly the smartest person in DC or not in DC but I’m hardly the smartest person in this conversation at all and I don’t think I’m like you know have like brilliant cohesive philosophical ideas or anything like that i’m just sort of a bumbling middle-aged you know hopefully try to be Christian person but I’m totally sincere and that’s why they hated MTG who’s also you know marginal just we probably got the same SAT score you know what I mean it’s like but she’s not kidding she’s total in that kind of what you see in that chick way where they get mad and they just like start telling the truth what you see is what you get only women do that yeah no she it look she’s central to Mega i mean what do you mean she she’s been well she was written out today by Mark Leavvin i know she and I don’t always agree on everything but she’s 100% it’s not even your question that shows you the level they’re prepared to go to no what you have is which is tough in this town to get is actually historical understanding of these institutions the only other person and this would be great if you did it the only other person I know that has that is Bobby Kennedy bobby Kennedy has that understanding obviously what his family’s gone through but he at a very deep level he knows the interconnections good friend of mine seeing him tomorrow morning steve Bannon thank you for taking the time to do this i am grateful and God speed in this city thanks uh Tucker it’s amazing i can’t wait till you get your appointment be the first interview on Roar Room after he gets it i’m not kidding when I get Hey I’ve had longer odds on things than this so stand by oh my gosh thank you thank you [Music] so it turns out that YouTube is suppressing this show on one level that’s not surprising that’s what they do but on another level it’s shocking with everything that’s going on in the world right now all the change taking place in our economy and our politics with the wars we’re on the cusp of fighting right now Google has decided you should have less information rather than more and that is totally wrong it’s immoral what can you do about it well we could whine about it that’s a waste of time we’re not in charge of Google or we could find a way around it a way that you could actually get information that is true not intentionally deceptive the way to do that on YouTube we think is to subscribe to our channel subscribe hit the little bell icon to be notified when we upload and share this video that way you’ll have a much higher chance of hearing actual news and information so we hope that you’ll do

I think that Trump was lied to. How reliable is his gatekeeper Susie??
You two Buffon I did not Vote for not of you, God Save President Trump to Save America, I Stand with President Trump, he is a Negotiator Peace to Strength, Praying for President Trump and his Cabinet that God will Guide Them🙏🥰🇺🇸
Thank you for what you do Tucker.
That was some brilliant clarity and defined big picture oversight… Bannon is about as close to a cleric as it gets! I’m glad I watched this, and my perspective shifted which provided relief; I completely agreed with what Tucker said the morning after this impulsive decision on the other side of the world. Bannon’s acknowledgment and explanation as to just how DJT is feeling/thinking about it-makes a lot of sense, and reminds me that he is still on the same page as support. The strongest trees sway with the wind, which allows them to weather the storm…;if only there was a promise to dismantle palantir’s Chinese based control grid after the deportations are completed 🙏🙄…trust=faith, and one thing at a time son😇☺️amen!
Like Bannon said doesn’t matter if it is Trump or Obama, the real masters are pulling the strings from behind the scenes. We need to expose them
Tuckers little boy haircut 😂
Crazy😢
He's not gonna bite Steve and I don't blame him.
You american got what you voted for 🙂
Oh poor tucker poor Steve …
Anyone with the lowest IQ knew the Corrumpt was a sell out traitor Clown
Only question is how much mariam adeldon paid him to support Israel ..
Less or more than the 400M jet from Qatar prince ???? Let me know when you find out 😂😂😂
AIPAC OUT
Trump promised no more wars. A second later he pledges alliegance to Israel. Get usa out of wars.
A Reflection on Power and Humanity
It is deeply unsettling to consider that the fate of our species can be so heavily influenced by a single individual—especially one as polarizing as Donald Trump. The fact that one person holds such sway over the trajectory of billions should prompt every thoughtful human being to ask: “How did we allow ourselves to reach this point?”
Regardless of whether one admires or despises Trump, no individual should possess the authority to shape the destiny of the entire planet. The concentration of such power in any single set of hands is a fundamental flaw in our global system.
We now find ourselves on the brink of what feels like an “Extinction Level Event,” anxiously awaiting decisions that could send the U.S. military into conflict on behalf of Israel, with consequences that may reverberate across the world. If our collective experiment in civilization ends here, may the universe bear witness to our failures—and perhaps learn from them.

Epstein's child sex videos that MOSSAD is still using are worth their weight in enriched Uranium.
Israel is the deepstate
I stand with President Donald Trump and I stand with Israel.
Have fun in Trumpistan!

TC needs a window
Donald Trump should:
1. Completely halt military aid to Ukraine until Zelensky holds elections or declares Ukraine neutral.
2. Not participate militarily in Israel's war.
3. Stand firm on tariffs.
4. Protect the border.
@28:13 did he just say he was CIA lol edit: nvm he said "with the" not "we're the"
NO MORE FOREIGN WARS !!!!
Iran/isreal is a Very Expensive Distraction story if the USA gets involved, it will be the End.
Fox News is becoming another CNN. Tucker you are the best thanks for this information 🙏🙏👍👍👍🇨🇦

Don't like who support illegal regime "occupiers in palestine".
Idiot.
If you want to avoid war for any reason, then disband the US military forces and save on the budget. We pay a shit ton to maintain the strongest army in the WORLD. Of course we use it when we need to.
The only thing the US does not want is a DRAGGED OUT WAR. At this moment, Israel has fought the war and is basically giving the US a skip on the "WAR" part of the process and HANDING the US a FREE VICTORY.
Only isolationist idiots would close eyes and shout "NO war No war No war" when you basically have an opportunity to basically get a free win and take out your biggest strategic enemy in the region for good.
Peacemaker Trump turned to be wolf in sheep’s skin. He promised us to stop wars ( exactly like Zelensky did to get votes)
We have been 😢fooled
You people really just don't understand you are dealing with a country Iran Who's life mission is to destroy the United States and Israel.. that is their life's goal that's what their God, their Bible tells them to do… even our own Bible says that that's what's going to happen is there coming from Iran which is modern-day Persia.. so keep sitting on your hands and criticizing your president raking in the dough and getting clicks… I like both of you but you are dead wrong on this one you must be born again you must have a holy spirit inside of you to understand.. you cannot fight a spiritual battle with carnal means and that's what you're trying to do.. I think perhaps you both should read this I think you would do you well you throw around the term Christian so easily..
The Bible says it's going to happen that the whole world is going to turn on Israel that he will make Israel a stumbling block to All Nations…Your fighting against God.
Proverbs 15:33 KJV
The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.Jesus is the only Hope.. Repentance and faith alone in Him will set you free and save you from the wrath of God to come and yourself… I pray for president Trump but our Sovereign God is in complete control of everything that happens.. 10 out 10 of us will die and most people even with terminal illnesses do not know the exact hour they're going to die… But it's a fact your going to.. To God be all the Glory and praise for the victory through Jesus Christ our Lord for making a way you can live forever in heaven with Him.. Life has many choices ETERNITY HAS BUT 2… the good news is if you're reading this it's not too late to make the right choice.. Choose life.
Matthew 7:13-23 KJV
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: [14] Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. [15] Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. [16] Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? [17] Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. [18] A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. [19] Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. [20] Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. [21] Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. [22] Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? [23] And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

It is a treason of American people by political gang 🤬
Supporter of one of the most openly genocidal groups of people on earth. Fkn hilarious. Gtfo
Trump is 🇮🇱 1st he will send every man women and child to die for Israel. He is a traitor liar and joo owned and controlled and will end usa. He is the false prophet the Bible speaks of 😅
Isn't the measure of whether you are a good person what you do and not how charming you can be?
How can you side with corruption and evil and be good.
Its all a SCAM Iraq, Afganistan and Iran. A scam to buy stocks earn money and shill for Isreal I hope anyone who voted for this is happy.
Tucker and Steve you're both delisuonal… Trump is the machine behind the DEEP STATE.. Isn't obbious bu now that Trump was IN ON the fake election of 2020. The cabol needed Sniffy to keep pushing the Ukraine issue so Russia would have no choice but to go in and save their kin and others..This was when 2024 rolled back around they'd put a cackling hen up against the Presumed Front Runner and she'd get slaughtered so Trump could come back and tey to wear down Russia and then poke and prod Israel to be their chump and go after Iran. If Russia doesn't come to Irans' defense then Russia and China will have a very bad next 5 years and be boxed in and the dying west will be back to pimping the world.
All of you don't understand this is spiritual!
This is nothing new. You might not want a war in Middle East. You'll get a war in Europe. You might not want a war in Europe, you'll get a war in Asia. And You'll always have a side gig in South America and Africa.
Tucker Carlson got "attacked" by a demon. So, Elon musk, Tulsi Gabbard and now Tucker Carlson all are out of favour with Trump. Next, might be Steve bannon.
MAGA Wing Trump
1) Steve Bannon Wing
2) Peter Thiel Wing (JD Vance)
3) Tucker Carlson Wing
4) Charlie Kirk Wing
5) Ben Shapiro Wing (Reluctant Maga)
6) Old Guard (waiting for Trump to go)
Elon Musk says that the "Big Beautiful Bill" wipes out the work of the DOGE team.
This is the third indication that Trump is going to lose the midterm elections the first and second being election losses in pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
Wait till you guys realise that JD Vance is more loyal to Peter Thiel than his wife.
A lot of contracts are going to Palantir in Trump's 2nd term.
Jd vance was the end of MAGA. Trump had to pick him… to cozy up to the tech Bros. The only guy who is left in MAGA who's actually MAGA was Steve Bannon and he lasted six months in the administration. After that Jared Kushner took over and enriched himself. In Trump's second term his sons are doing the same thing. Now Peter Thiel is taking over the MAGA movement and a lot of contracts are going to Palantir. This is the beginning of the complete takeover of Techno feudalism.
False flag incoming
Tulsi said Iran doesn’t have a nuclear weapons program — and that distinction matters. But that doesn’t mean there’s nothing to worry about, or that they’re innocent saints spinning uranium for fun. Iran is enriching uranium beyond typical civilian use, resisting full transparency with inspectors, and edging closer to breakout capability. Saying they 'have no nuclear program' is like saying a man holding a loaded gun isn’t a threat just because his finger isn’t on the trigger — it’s a risky assumption to make.
Two Traitors Together.
Phull shmit ! All I see empire is collapsing, like all in history. Dedolarisation is massive , USA bonds is sold all over the place. Sorry USA, but bye bye.
You dismissing God. Israel is not falling apart but together according to the bible. They will never be destroyed. Those who bless them will be blessed, those who curse them cursed. God said it… The United States is only blessed because we have supported them thats it. G od keeps His promise.
All of the CIA flip flop talk makes me think these two are CIA lol
Tucker, stop making excuses for Trump. He is NOT what we all thought he would be. We were deceived. Trump is a liar. You are just too afraid to admit it. Whether he is pressured by neocons or not is irrelevant. And from his recent posts on truth social he seems to go perfectly well with the neocons. He himself is a neocon. If MAGA is serious against any new war, start a anti war protest movement.
Trump has deliberately misled many into thinking that he is antiwar. You judge by their actions, not by mere words.
After misleading Iran into thinking that negotiations are still ongoing and 2 days before a scheduled meeting you greenlight Israel to attack shows that Trump has ZERO credibility and cannot be trusted. And to support attack against nuclear installation is a war crime. If you still think that Trump is for peace, then sorry to say Tucker but you are a cuck.
Steve should return to coaching the Patriots.
Shame on usa governments for killing innocent people in the world
Can't understand this: smart guys, but they never get to point of US guilt>-<obligation that brings all those refugee and migration movements. So without that, you can not create a cohesive plan, as the "basis, ground, definition" of America First/MAGA gives no urge to the people to make make "Warmonger" and others accountable for the price (negative ROI) in all aspects.
Like "that warmonger" invested 1 Bil CIA Operation in destabilizing "El Salvador" now the total ROI is -10 Bil on border defense, internal defense and Weaponizing. Without that it would have been "0" Bil, and 11 Bil saved….
Israel can fight their own war
Bannon supports Israel of course because Trumps son in law who has set up a company that benefits from Israel creating War all around the place. Tucker you have all ready been called a Kook by Trump gets some balls and get Low Key the musician who has done endless research and can connect the dots re everything.
It's for sure the end of the zionist entity
Now what Tucker? Lost your coolness? You are Kooky! You Magas are 🤡! Learn how to be a slave, be the parrot of your lord.
