Episode 5230: The Enemy Is Within The Gates

How many days before we invaded Iran did you know we were in launch innovation? We can get into those details on a classified setting But I work with my colleagues across the spectrum here to give me advanced warning so that we can reinforce Was it two days three days a month? It was it was some time before that sir some time before that's here With that knowledge Why did you fire at least a dozen agents and counterintelligence unit 12 that specializes in a rod counterintelligence? Which makes us much less secure and safe with this war going on from Iranian attacks Potentially against our country as I said earlier Congressman I don't work on timelines when these terminations occur their internal investigations Conducted by the careers at the FBI that highlight unethical or inappropriate conduct and it's up to me to make the decision But our Iran threats mission center has never been more resourced as I've highlighted a 43 percent increase in counter-espionage arrests from Iran alone and 360 ongoing terrorism investigations with Iran affiliated and the people you fired those 12 people they were experts on Iran were they not I Don't believe so They worked encounter intelligence. Do they not? I'm taking you at your word sir. I'm not from you. You're the chief director. I'm not you should know the answer You fired the people. Where did they work? I? People were terminated for violating their ethical obligations and the high standards with the ethical violations that they dealt with the case of them Classified documents that were founded them by bathroom and Mar-a-Lago. Was that the ethical issue? As I said earlier all those matters are pending litigation, so I'm not gonna comment on them. Of course, no Japan and you are a very good friend, but One question why didn't you tell us allies? In Europe and Asia like Japan about the war before attacking Iran So we are very confused about we Japanese One thing you don't want to signal too much, you know when we go in we went in very hard And we didn't tell anybody about it because we wanted Surprise who knows better about surprise in Japan Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor? Okay right he's asked could be Do you believe in surprise? I think much more so than us and We had a surprise and we did and because of that surprise we knocked out the first two days We probably knocked out 50% of what we and much more than we anticipated doing so if I go and tell everybody about it There's no longer a surprise Yeah, I did I told him don't do that and he's won't do that we didn't discuss you know we do We're independent we get along great It's coordinated, but on occasion he'll do something and if I don't like it and so we're not doing that anymore I think that what Has to be done is to have alternative routes instead of going through the choke points of the of the Hormuz Straits and the Bob and Mandem Straits in order to have the flow of oil Just have oil pipelines gas pipelines going west Through the Arabian Peninsula right up to Israel right up to our Mediterranean ports And you've just done away with the choke points for forever. That is definitely possible suit. I see that as I See that as a Real change that will follow this This war, but I also see this war ending a lot faster than people think and the fact that we're working together America is not fighting for Israel America is fighting with Israel I could tell you that we're working to create the conditions for it to collapse But it may it may survive it may not if it survives. It'll be a lot weaker There's no comparison will be at its weakest point Shown of industries that it built over decades death industries Shown of many other capabilities that they have and equip with the experience with the knowledge That if they try it again, they'll be hit again even harder Did I see brief the president who would succeed the supreme leader if he was killed and the likelihood that our placement would be a hardliner Did the IC brief the president who would succeed the supreme leader if he was killed and the likelihood that our placement would be a hardliner or could be a hardliner So to be clear The president's objectives with respect to operation epic fury did not include regime change That may be different from what Israel's objectives were but you can but yes, the president was briefed in the event that Supreme leader that's great. Thank you so much. I'm sorry to cut you off. I just have 20 seconds Fact number one Israel acted alone against the slowia gas compound fact number two President Trump asks us to hold off on future attacks and we're holding out Prime Minister given the escalation of attacks on US allies across the Gulf Given the spiraling energy costs the high costs in general that the US service personnel killed in this war Many Americans are asking that question Whether you misled their government into starting this war and for how long should Americans keep paying the price? Well, I misled no one and I didn't have to convince the president Trump about the need to prevent Iran from Developing its nuclear program putting it underground and being able to launch Nuclear-tipped missiles at the United States. He understood that He explained it to me. I didn't explain it to him And I think that our partnership is the only way to avoid this catastrophic development Or could continue the war just one question Jeremy. Thank you We're gonna close. Thank you so much. Thank you, mr. Prime Minister. Thank you everyone for your questions today War he said that there were weeks away. I just want to kind of get a sense Um Were they weeks away of achieving a nuclear weapon? Yes or no Congressman this is a serious matter and you've made some very serious mischaracterization Yes, or no, were they weeks away? Yes or no service to you and the American people to answer this question with Amir. Yes or no We're claiming my time. Were they weeks away or not? The American people need to know if this was an imminent threat or not If they're a weeks away or not if they're months away or not, none of this dodging Were they an imminent threat? Thursday 19 march year of our lord 2026 on the senate. There are I guess debating Moving forward with the save america act We've got senator tubberville here tons of action in the war another night of the of heaviest bombing Going to be another one tonight. We are told But this thing's broadening out now Qatar has put people on notice they may Implement they may call for force majeure for up to five-year contracts on delivery of gas To to the middle east we're getting all that senator tubberville Has joined us and senator tubberville before I get to the save act and before I get to the war because we always want Your ideas and opinions about kinetic activity and kind of the strategy I want to go back you put out a I think a tweet Where you said you get controversial people's heads blew up about the enemies inside the gate You had a picture if we can put that up you had a picture of the twin towers, which you almost never see Anymore 25 years after it on fire being attacked and then mandami in city hall under a portrait of general washington On a you know on the prayer rugs having a staff meeting We're fighting a major war now in the middle east about topics related to radical islamic theology We're down in texas. We've been in texas and other places in the west Working on the situation with the muslim invasion of the united states of america when you say the enemy's inside the gate What do you mean by that? Well, we're at war here now steve. They're here. We've got over five million muslims here that go by sharia law worship the korean We all like immigrants. We're all immigrants to some form or fashion And i've got some muslim friends, but they don't study and teach The sharia law they don't go by the korean They go by something else They're here to make our country better, but we have got millions that are here That are here to take our country down and somebody better start speaking up. I was today speaking with Some people from europe that were in my office and They say it's over And they're going to fight in the streets and when you and i've talked about that to get their country back We don't want to have to do that here. So it's time to speak up call it like it is And uh, we got a lot of problems and madami is the enemy He's a guy that is going to destroy new york ever which way he can and uh, You know, it's just it's just unfortunate. We're at this point But we've got to start speaking up and talking about it if we don't we're going to end up just like europe In 10 years from now. We're going to be fighting in the streets trying to get this country back Senator you've been one of the strongest uh allies Proponents of president trump and his policies and particularly this issue about closing the border and then Figuring out and going through this deportation effort The the principal topic besides closing the border president trump won a 2024 markway mullins was before the senate yersa and dhs And said hey his policy is going to be judicial warrants And to go into any business running home where they're not actually in the full pursuit of a bad guy a bad ombre How does that link back? To your hey, we're at war here. We you know, we got 20 or 25 million your league was just on bite and watch was We've done on purpose this whole Shutdown at dhs the whole problem we got with the budget the whole Polarization in the imperial capital is about this at the same time That and you've been one of the biggest deficit hawks the pentagon department of war petex That's who we're big supportive peat and love peat sends over 200 Bayon dollar bill for tommy tupperville and other peoples to suck on It is somehow this thing like Not focused on what we should be focused on Well steve there's so many things out there that Uh makes everybody's head spin up here. I mean we're talking about we've got these goofballs on the democratic side that They can't do simple things like fund the government. They can't fund dhs or fema or Or the coast guard. It's just absolutely amazing. We should get all these Block and tackling things out of the way the fundamentals And really work on the problems in this country, which is enemy within side the gate The wars we're having in iran the terrorism the things that are going on there Uh, but it's hard to do that up here and now you know, I was with the president all day yesterday I went to delaware we had a kid that uh, that was in that crash of the 135 over in Iraq and so they brought the bodies home. Your style went with him and we talked a lot but peak hessler was there general kane First time i'd really been able to sit down other than classified and just talk to him and you know, they feel good about everything going on Uh, i'm just glad that people like the secretary of war And and general kane can get away from this nonsense that the democrats are putting us through and focus on their job And that's that's been awesome. I think that they're after action can focus on whether it's venezuela Cuba or iran and they're doing a great job and they got just listened to their plan. They have a hell of a plan and uh, It it's a total Change over than what we had during joe biden. I mean these people actually have been planted for months doing things and making tremendous progress so Again, I don't I don't up here. We don't get a lot done We talk a lot and we speak loud. We bark loud, but we don't do a lot for the american people, unfortunately One thing you guys could do is to save america actor you uh, confident where do we stand? We're gonna cut that we're staying here live till seven tonight Like we've done every night this week to cut into life coverage of what's happening on the floor Give us your assessment of where we are a lot of talk no action we uh We'll have a couple amendments. I have an amendment that will vote on saturday will be your saturday sunday We're not going to go home till we get get all this matter put to bed so to speak My my amendment is as president trump wanted was uh, this is the fourth time I put it on the floor No men and women's sports should never been a problem to begin with but obviously As I will tell the democrats when i'm talking about this before we vote This helped beat you last time keep voting against it because we'll beat you with it again If you think men should play in women's sports But the thing about the this whole weekend is we don't have the votes steep We don't have the votes on even on the republican side. We couldn't get a 51 vote If we needed to we'll be through it for uh vote short And then if you needed 60 votes if you're counting on the democrats to vote for anything for the american people to make this country better You're living a dream I tell you senator, I know you're busy. I just want to hold you through a quick commercial break because I do have some questions on save america Act because people this this audience will be here Through the weekend as we do wall to wall coverage on this and to make sure that uh that people can understand it So if you just have hang on for one second, um The um geopolitics is a fancy term as we talk about geopolitical turbulence for war and the rumor of war We've got a guide that helps you think all this through end of the dollar empire Uh, it's uh five five six years. We've been putting it out these installments seven free installments We now have a hard copy of it That's actually handed out taught at the university of alkan saw in the graduate school of finance the end of the dollar empire birchgold.com promo code bannon Remember this is not about the price of gold. It's about the pattern recognition And the forces that can converge To drive the value of gold particularly as a hedge against times of financial turbulence and folks One or four turning plenty of turbulence senator tommy tubberville from the great state of alabama on the other side Think about this in 2006 $20,000 equaled roughly 33 ounces of gold at spot prices At today's prices those 33 ounces of gold will be worth $165,000 Smart americans diversify a portion of their savings into precious metals And that's why you need to consider buying gold from my friends at birch gold group For thousands of years gold has been a store of wealth And today it is a crucial part of any balanced strategy even better Birch gold can help you convert an existing ira or 401k into a tax sheltered retirement account in gold Just text my name bannon banon oan to the number 98 98 90 to receive your free info kit on gold There's no obligation just useful information With an a plus rating with the better business bureau in tens of thousands of happy customers Let birch gold help you diversify with gold Now that's peace of mind text banon to 98 98 98 again My name bannon banon oan to the number 98 98 98 do it today Okay, welcome back. We're gonna be on the senate floor. Maybe for some of this hour Definitely for the six o'clock hour as this debate goes on on the save america act Senator Tuberville you said on saturday you're gonna get a chance to put your amendment up that president trump once added to this about Uh men and women's sports, and then you said sunday again. We're gonna be covering it just to give our audience head up We now do a sunday show. So we'll be covering all this. Is this when we finally flip to Uh Seize the floor and go to some sort of talking filibuster. I mean you kind of shocked the audience by saying Hey guys pay attention. We don't have 51 vote the democrats turned to us right now and said, okay No filibuster go and vote you're saying we don't have 51 right now on the republican side to carry this sir yeah, if we had a straight vote today and the and the uh Democrats say see if you can get a simple majority. We'll let you try that. We don't have the votes We got four or five people who's not gonna vote for it and they don't believe in federalized and elections and uh As I say this is a different world. I mean we got 15 states in this country that they're absolutely gonna allow Illegals to vote and there's no way an american republican can ever win in that state again I don't care if it's a school board meeting or a president united states. You can't win And so we cannot allow non citizens to vote and people in alabama Steve biggest thing to me they come to me say coach is my vote going to be cancelled by an illegal Is that's what's gonna happen? Are y'all not going to change something? And a lot of my colleagues You know that they they can't understand it. They want to stay with tradition And it's gonna get us Do you believe as we work through this on late on sunday afternoon or monday that that You think this just kind of works itself out and I mean it just peters out it fizzles out And there will be no forcing what they call seize the floor to try to force a uh a standing filibuster Well, I'd like to try yeah, I'd like to try anything Mike lee has been adamant and said let's let's take the floor. Let's make them stay here Let let's let's make them debate You know day in and day out and if that's what it takes I think that would be our only chance to where we could just wear them down Now again, we've got to start with our republican colleagues the same way We've got to get some of them on our side before we even can start you know with with uh With any democrats at all and of course chuck schumer's gotten them all you know standing in line and And saying you're not gonna get any campaign money if you if you vote vote for this I mean, it's uh, it's a scheme that the democrats have going. It's just unfortunate Senator I think it was in 2024 you went over for the first time to the to the Commemoration of the Normandy landings. I believe your father Was a tank commander. I think he was there d-day plus a couple of days and then it was with Pat and the other armies that went across europe Um that experience you had to go back for the first time and see actually the scale of what your father and others had accomplished How is that informing? Informing your view now about what is going on and what are we asking of young men and women in iran? Well, it's it's mind-boggling of course you you've been to normandy you've seen Utah beach which is not near as near as an incline As the other beaches and that's the reason my dad was a tank driver and they came into Utah beach because they could make it up the slopes But uh, you know, we lost what 50 000 young men and women During that Couple two or three three day battle just it just it brings tears to you as it really does and You know, that's reason I I really dread anything if we get it in into any ground war because I think we can handle what we need to handle with what we're doing right now And president trump believes that too. He doesn't he doesn't want any form of fashion of boots on the ground But at the end of the day, you know, we all got to be in on whatever it takes to put these people back in their place because they are As dangerous right now as the nazis were back in 1940s You stay pretty close to the folks in alabama in fact, you're you're leaving the senate to run for governor What is as your constituents right now take their temperature? Where do they stand on this war? Now that they're pretty good. I mean you hear some talk, uh, you know about You know why why are we doing this because most people aren't really informed? They don't understand all the attacks that we've had this is accumulation as you well know, Steve of many many years of of all the different terrorist groups around the world that are funded by Iran and in in china and some of these people behind the scenes And we've got to cut the head of the snake and you're in my lifetime. This will be the only chance we have to do that A lot of people saying it's because of israel it's it's probably some about israel, but it's more about You know peace in the world because president trump started in a western hemisphere with venezuela Obviously cuba is working on on on mexico, but this this uh What's going on in our end these people are absolutely lunitons And if they ever got a nuclear weapon, whether they were working on one or got closer to one I don't care. I just want to make sure and the people of this country in the world need to make sure That these crazies do not have any kind of access to a dirty bomb Or a nuclear weapon if they do they will damn sure use it. I mean they're not like north koreans They're not like the russians. They are crazy because they love death and they preach death to america every day Senator tuba veal, where do people follow you your campaign for governor and where they follow your social media? It always comes in a little hot Telling folks what's going on in the u.s. Senate At senator tuba veal and then at coach for gov. Steve. Thank you very much Well, we'll follow you through the weekend and maybe reach out so good luck. Yeah, we'll be here. We'll be here twilling our thumbs, Steve Thank you, sir always appreciate your straightforwardness and honesty Natalie winners We started with coach tuba veal talking about he put up a Tweet the other day about the enemies inside the gate Right about he had the twin towers and he had mondami on a prayer rug in front of I think the portrait of George Washington At the new york city hall wouldn't wouldn't gracey mansion city hall You've had some people come after you pretty hard recently About some of the positions some of the analysis because you're not a punnett some of the analyses you've been doing On exactly the situation in the United States of America with illegal aliens and legal Immigration man am I correct in that in that assumption? Well, they've been coming after you too. So I guess we'll we'll both take the arrows But look, I think you can really connect all of this, right? Whether it's this idea that we have to combat Islamophobia That seems to be the new woke obsession by just pointing out I don't know the simple fact that Islam is not a religion of peace and even if it were It's antipetical to Western values But you compound that with I'm sure we'll play the clip of the way the legacy media is already churning the propaganda machine trying to make Americans feel sympathetic for Afghan refugees who are now caught up in the Iran war who now need to be killed Refugees who are now caught up in the Iran war who now need to suddenly come to the United States because I'm sure An afghan soldier never lied once to get refugee or citizenship status here in the united states in the asylum process And then you link it I think to what's going on in Iran the you know Lively discussions that the maga movement is having about what it means to use american State power and battlefields abroad and you know, I love senator toverville, but I would respectfully Say that I think it does matter The calculus of why went into Iran if it is somewhat Even just somewhat related to israel's actions I think that that's something that merits further discussion And a question into not because I'm conspiratorily anti-israel But because america first means America first and I think that that chain of command that order of decision making is something that merits More analysis and frankly I do care whether it's you know Iran had a bomb or was really close to a bomb or they were it was going to be a dirty bomb now all of a sudden It's not a nuclear bomb You know, I think there's a lot of questions that people are allowed to ask and it's kind of an interesting pushback when when you just want more clarity Um, but I think the h1b visa issue, which is what will also play a clip on a rather funny segment from a pretty awful comedian Trying to suggest that maga should support h1b visa as in attacking this show is leading the kind of fight To say that actually h1b's it's really not even immigration policy It's shareholder Holder policy to help boost the bottom line of companies that hate this country unless I guess they can get you know quadruple the contracts from the panagon in light of a new war Um, but all of this stuff flows together and obviously our audience stays frosty. They see through it But but there's a lot of I think propaganda right now between the Islam stuff the refugee, you know appeal to All the emotions. Obviously this audience isn't going to fall for it Um, but very valid questions. I think about america's role in the world And I will say interesting polling coming out today about how more allies want to rely on china than the united states I want to I want to play i'm a way to after the break to play all i was going to play one of them here But I want to hold for it you born very early in this when I say very early early in it I think we're coming up on the third week of it that you you can't discount The refugee replacement and how this could be a total fiasco Or do you feel as uh as someone that does investigative reporting states on top of this? Do you feel? Given the scale of what this work could have you've got uh the situation with the canceling potentially canceling of five-year gas contracts you've got the situation with refugees Now they're talking about I think bb today it is at his press conference talked about Potential ground troops. Do you think the information's coming out? Enough that people can make judgments and the war in posse can sit there and weigh and measure We got about a minute can weigh and measure Exactly what's going to see if they were answered asked by a pollster that they would actually have enough information to answer I'm definitely not. I mean, I think if you just single out the refugee issue The only agency that I've seen even giving us numbers is the united nations very very rarely do I uh uncritically or unironically quote the united nations But unfortunately they're the only people on the ground even doing the analysis and even the numbers that they're putting forward Or to the tune of millions of people even hundreds of thousands and you know the small country of levin on Alone and I think the point is the reason why there's such an opposition to forever wars. I'm aware. This is not a forever war It's been a few weeks But it's the second third and fourth order effects of getting involved in you know Muslim majority regions they fight to the death. They hate this country that also means you can't have unconditional surrender From an islamic country let alone with the evolution and drone warfare But from a crazy radicalized muslim state we're going to be dealing with these sleeper cells and refugee replacement for decades to come Hang on for a second natalie. We're gonna take a short commercial break. We've got some clips We're gonna have some observations and some analysis of all of you're in the war room on a thursday afternoon short break I've got a question for you. How do you usually get your medication? Let me guess you call the doctor away from appointment to get a prescription sit in a waiting room Then you stand around and line at the pharmacy hoping they actually have what you need That's not convenient.

I think it's a totally justified fear. It's not a phobia But I think you're seeing a sort of resurgence of what are very 2016 era talking points sort of in response frankly to what this audience has been doing which is calling out the threat of Sharia supremacy the metastasization of Islam through this country. So to sort of quell or suppress that discourse What do they do right? It's the ad hominem. It's act. They say you're as long as phobic And I think that that's actually really quite a dangerous Development when you look at the national security implications Particularly when it comes to things like, you know, it's racial profiling right all these euphemistic Or I guess the opposite the inverse of that terms to describe what is just protecting the national security of the united states I think we can spare a little bit of diversity to make sure that you know young american children aren't blown up in the name of a la But it's it's quite interesting when you look at what the un is doing Which I think you can always sort of look to them as a figurehead for what the globalists are seeking to do in all of these Countries they are launching or getting ready to launch a new un action plan to combat Islamophobia And one of their special envoy was talking about what exactly that would entail and even for the un It's pretty radical including but not limited to what they describe as addressing the quote root causes of hatred and using quote education of the schools media and full public also using legislative issues legislation Um to try to I don't know root out not just Islamophobia But the attitude of Islamophobia, which when you really unpack that that's pretty wild They're already talking and in talks with the tech platform civil society to sort of put out this censorship regime to again suppress Islamophobic content, which we've all seen You can't even really define that that's basically anything that's not like let's open our borders to a bunch of third world invaders And watch the united states turn into an Islamic country But they even talk about how they can monitor better the rise of Islamophobia by using quote databases to follow up with more Concrete steps. So I think this uh happening Congrantly with what's going on in the Middle East when you could potentially see a huge refugee wave Incoming you're already going to start seeing the argument that you know, it's Islamophobic To not let in the millions of refugees from Muslim majority countries Yeah, you're going to see it you nailed it. You're going to see this Uh, this is a longer clip h1b visas. I want the audience to to focus on this and Natalie and I will be on the other side Now the republican battle over h1b's has two sides on one side is the corporate tech maga the ones who all lined up at Trump's inauguration and funneled money into his slush fund They argue that h1b visas are critical to allow them to hire the kind of top tier talent That they need to make sure america remains a world leader in innovation They have a strong case nearly half of fortune 500 companies were founded by immigrants or the children of immigrants And a recent report found that over half of us startups valued at a billion dollars or more Had at least one immigrant founder Now on the other side are the opponents to the h1b the nativist wing of maga Now when most people think of this group they think of steve bannon the guy who did for all of canvass jackets What hillary clinton did for the pantsuit? Bannon has been on one about h1b's for a long time the h1b visa program is a total and complete scam from its Top to the bottom the h1b's is a total and complete scam This is all about paying one group a third of what you pay the other group with no benefits in the living 10 to a condo in silicon valley now since kirks death There has been no shortage of young ambitious h1b haters Auditioning to take his place But i want to focus on a few very promising young upstarts first. We have natalie winters The 24 year old protege of steve bannon and the white house correspondent for his war room podcast Last year natalie got a splashy girl boss profile in the new york times Yas queen and she regularly says this stuff about indian people They're not the best and brightest They're the worst and they're the most attached to the culture that they're coming from and they have nothing american about them And frankly they have a fake diploma from a fake indian university where the person sitting next to them is probably a robo caller Scamming you come on natalie. We have fake diplomas here in america too. They're called polyside degrees and we both have them Welcome to the grift, but if america is all about letting the best rise to the top How do you justify shutting down legal immigration? I mean that's anti competitive And that's when i started listening more closely to natalie winters Immigration is both an economic issue, but also a cultural issue, right? We want to deport these people not just because they're depriving americans of their wages of their jobs But also what they're doing to the cultural fabric what they're doing to these neighborhoods got it So there's something about foreign cultures that is bad for america Now what exactly is it about those cultures that natalie finds so offensive and should we be studying? You know 25 hours a day eight days that we know increase the the length of the day So all we can do is study That's not what this country was founded on if you look at the history of us Got it So you don't like lazy immigrants totally get that But you also don't like immigrants who? Work hard So here's what i'm saying Gen Z conservatives like the rest of gen z are struggling economically They feel like they deserve a decent job with a decent wage and to still have time to live a life The problem is if they said that they'd start to sound like these fucking losers Workers throughout the country are seeing their family life fall apart As they are forced to spend more and more time at work My vision is not limited to the homes that we live in or the childcare that we're making universal It's also a vision where we make it possible For working people to afford lives of joy of art of rest of expression We don't have to live like this anymore We can make a new world A better country where we can fight for the dignity of all people So instead of appealing to a sense of solidarity and fighting for economic security and dignity for all americans maga is appealing to a zero sum mentality and saying if we kick out the boat browns and the airport browns well guess what? We'll rock more to ourselves And this reveals what maga really means when it says merit Yeah, you earn it through hard work and education, but if you're born here And your parents were born here You get extra merit points for being a heritage american It's basically kendall roe at the end of succession screaming i'm the eldest boy You can call this racial entitlement. You can call it white nationalism, but I call it white valedictorianism We all know this the valedictorian in every school if you go on grades alone is the chinese kid It's always the chinese kid. It will always be the chinese kid, but maga's like no Just keep going down the list go through the chinese kid the vietnamese kid the korean kid the indian kid the pakistani kid The bangalik kid back to the chinese kid just keep going until you get to the white one The 13th place guy that's the valedictorian as much as maga and republicans claim they want merit They don't as much as they claim they just want to hire the best most hard-working immigrants. They don't What they really want is a preferential treatment for being heritage americans They're not enforcing meritocracy. They're enforcing Hierarchy almost like A caste system Which is the most indian thing they could be doing Uh natalie winters Thank you. Thank you for that quite interesting. By the way, I might I was the following speaker to vivix heritage american speech at Back in december at turning point. I might I might mention Vivik who was on quite a roll with you know, you got to stop uh sleepovers because you got to study 247 I would truly kind of miss at the point of what's made this country great Um vivik I think is down 10 points in the last poll I saw and suck is dragging down The senate candidates are sure brown a populist economic populist. Look looks like he's going to win Natalie, uh, they've singled you out. I think they've singled you out because uh, your your career is totally Uh about merit you've uh, you've grinded through some of the one of the toughest prep schools in country went to university Chicago three years you graduate at the same time you held down being an investigative reporter for us and and really I think being the most serious investigative reporter about the uh, the uh, Warfare of the chinese communist party against the united states of america your overall observations as now you are singled out ma'am As somebody that's uh, and I want to say it's not just h1 b visas. I I'm all for a tenure I believe we need a 10-year moratorium In this country immediately on all immigration all of it the whole thing's a scam. It's all rotten to the core of it We're taking a million a year Officially, but it's got with all the with all the different rules and regulations You're really taking in millions a year, right? If not tens of millions a year and we got 25 million illegal alien invaders here off of biden Of course our new, you know kung fu fighter DHS says he only wants uh judicial warrants until we go into any business didn't talk about you verified talk about a judicial warrant For you go into business. No bro. That's not the way it's going to work We'll never agree to that no one will ever agree to that so Natalie I think our position here is much harder than the h1b and h1b everybody knows It's completely corrupt and the people that know what the most of the people in india that run the corrupt system ma'am Well, steve, I think you're going a little woke if you only want a moratorium for 10 years I think we've got to got to do at least 20 Um, but I will say I love I love that video with the the false pretense the predicate being like the american people I.e. maga have ever had to say and what this country's immigration policy is Um, anytime there's actually been the chance to have a referendum on immigration when you know You put the donors to the side like trump in 2016 Overwhelmingly they want to build the wall and get mass deportations right those are the most popular slogans But this idea of merit is just so astronomically false Um, I always love sort of talking about the actual numbers because there's this idea right the best and the brightest as he kept saying Well, when you actually look at the numbers and like they play this sort of shell game with the numbers So the american people don't understand how quickly they're being replaced Um, but about 87 percent of the h1b people who are coming in the data going back to around 2015 They're at the bottom two percentiles The 17 percentile wage and then the 34th percentile wage of people in this country So you're not importing the best and the brightest when you're paying them the least salary that could possibly exist and when you look at the levels that they're importing so it's not just obviously Corporations, you know scamming these people paying them, you know, basically slave labor wages 52 percent were at level one 30 percent were at level two just 12 percent were at level three and just six percent Um, we're we're at the highest level right and that's the government accountability office So that's not, you know, crazy right wing data And when you when you look at what the share of foreign versus native born workers are in the it sector now Over half of all STEM and it jobs are going to people who are born Outside of the country and when you look at this, I mean these corporations save on average, you know Around 20 000 per employee when they're outsourcing and you see these CEOs taking, you know 1.3 million dollars in the case of I believe the company um Some energy company northeast utilities after they're laying off 200 Americans And when you look at what the statute was right in the 1990s, right? It was under 100 words That was what created this program now. It's up to 7 000 words 20 pages That's how you get the alphabet soup of visa categories, right like the opt program And when you look at the numbers it's quite staggering opt, right? Which is this kind of weird pseudo student to job pipeline. It was 24 000 in 2007 It's now 194 000 in 2024 with 48 of those people coming from India And if you start really looking into the future if you take the same relative rate of growth of foreign born workers versus native born workers Which is 3.2 annual growth in the share itself Using that compounding assumption if you project that into the future In only 30 years 50 percent of the entire workforce will be foreigners In 42 years, it'll be 70 percent. Obviously these aren't hyper realistic domestic You know native born americans are always going to have jobs But at this rate it would only take 52 years for the workplace to be 100 Foreign born and like I said the original cap was 65 000 people a year You look at by the 2015 we already passed into the 200 000s of people and that's not even including overstays That's newly added and when you look at 2024 for example, there was 780 884 h1b petitions granted that is a 1100 increase over what the american people were allegedly sold even using fake data And I think the point is why I find that clip so funny It's not just the typical, you know argument that we make here, which is that it's not an immigration policy It's a shareholder policy. It's for these corporations that hate this country. It's not about talent. It's about replacing americans But to say that our opposition to h1b visas which demonstrably depress the wages of americans is rooted in white nationalism Is patently absurd america does not have a white nationalism problem If anything, we have an indian nationalism problem because upwards of 70 of all h1b visas are going to people from india We have a mexican nationalism problem when it comes to illegal immigration because they're all coming from mexico And we have a I don't know. I guess a chinese nationalism problem in our universities because the majority of those visas are going to chinese people So to say that our opposition the idea of defending american workers is rooted in some obsession White identity it's not but on the other hand if america turns in to being filled by 100 Indians then it's not exactly america and you know what makes i think maga really upset Is being lectured by someone whose parents were immigrants to this country, which that's fine I'm sure they did it the right way. They probably came on an h1b visa But I don't want to be told what being an american is by someone who like has barely been an american for more than i don't know A few decades and it's that that puts a bad taste in my mouth being told that i'm not allowed to raise my voice and say Actually, we should make sure that our government isn't screwing over american workers by replacing them with people who yeah Get diplomas and degrees from fake universities. It's all a scam They're paid slave wages and they're not the best and brightest. Okay, you can point me to one person who started a company Good for you. There's a lot of americans and steve. I think the most upsetting thing which is I think the audience probably shares with that clip Which they should watch the whole thing It's this idea of betting against americans betting against white kids betting certainly against white men You know what? You don't need to go down the list past every ethnicity to hit a white person There are a lot of white people who are capable of being valedictorians too and you know what hassan minhosh Look at president trump's victory in 2024 He made a massive strides winning over the minority whatever words you want to call it vote with people who were drawn to economic Nationalism and I just find that interview that segment first of all so reductive and so low IQ But so weirdly racist by saying that i'm the racist for not being an indian supremacist and saying that I think a visa program That's exploiting american workers and turning this country into a hollowed up shell of its culture as something that's wrong And that should not be continued and that we should I don't know put american workers first american defined as people Who yeah maybe have a little bit of heritage or legacy in this country and didn't just arrive 15 minutes ago Yeah, like I said 100 agree and I am now with you it's a 20 year moratorium you convinced me it's a 20 year I've been too weak. It's 20 year moratorium and uh, you know, I had the pleasure of sitting there watching vivix Just insane speech and i'm thinking i'm this guy's running for governor of ohio I'm not so sure that's going to work out of course He immediately got off of social media because he was getting ratioed And now he's down 10 and then we're going to lose a sentencing because of him natalie winners We got to cut to the senate floor I think there's big news coming up on save america and of course you and I work every day To save america here in the war room natalie where they go For more of your content and maybe a couple that you got substacked, but you also maybe have a couple of three rants out there too Natalie juinters on substack natalie juinters.substack.com always an honor to be in the war room.

Let's make sure you follow natalie on social media. Let's go to the senate floor. Mike lee cleat of michael's We're saying I think we got all the things that she said just about any of the things that she said I'd be concerned to Fortunately for all of us The things that she's saying about this bill Either in some instances incomplete leaving out material information to complete the picture Resulting in a in a much different Impact than has been suggested or in other cases. They're completely wrong Let's go back to a few first principles about what the bill actually does There there are two basic precepts of the bill The fundamental purpose of it is to make it a couple minutes left in this We're going to go back to the senate floor to mike lee, but cleat of mitral's joining us cleat You got some breaking news of what's going to happen in the next hour ma'am It's cleat off you take you got to take you mood off cleat Sorry, can you hear me now? Sorry That's I know how you boomers. I know has technology is hard for you boomers to use but go ahead cleat Well, i'm sorry about that. Yes. We just like remember that we wanted this on the floor We wanted the democrats to have to talk about it remember that's what and we were begging pummeling john thing the republican leadership said just put it on the floor They said what's going to happen? We said we don't know but they're on the floor and find out it's called legislating so That's happened and people have started paying attention and they started looking at the democrats and listening to their lies and you know the the democrats have been lying about voter id for 20 years 20 years They've been lying about voter id and it has not moved the needle one bit in terms of public public opinion So yesterday now remember they started talking about this bill on tuesday so 48 hours into it We're guessing yesterday was 24 hours into it. They uh schumer said democrats aren't opposed to voter id We're not opposed to voter id. We're opposed to all these other things So there's a process in the senate. I'm learning all these little things about the senate rules called hotlining a bill and so senator uh You said from ohio Has taken the section on photo id out of the save america act copied it into a separate bill And that's going to be put on the floor about 6 30 And and he's going to ask for unanimous consent Of the house of all the senators to just adopt this bill and send it to the house So we'll see we'll see what they do. Let's see how many democrats have the have the world with all to stand up and vote against that Hang on because schumer started talking yesterday because they knew what they were saying was not sticking and this was the power Of the war in posse and others to put out and be a force multiply on this content Schumer schumer came out yesterday and said oh, we don't have any problem With voter id you're saying they're doing a put up or at 6 30. They're going to do a put up or shut up They're actually going to do it just a bill exactly on voter id It's an actual bill. It takes that section copies it verbatim puts it on the floor and says okay You want unanimous consent for this great? Let's see what happens Let's see what happens I mean, it's legislating you would let Hang on one second. We're going to hold you through the next hour.
