Summary

Episode focuses on Senator John Cornyn's opposition to Trump and conservative policies, featuring compiled clips of Cornyn criticizing Trump, opposing border wall construction, and supporting deep state figures. Guest Ken Paxton's Senate campaign is positioned as the alternative to Cornyn's establishment Republican approach, with discussion of oil market dynamics and military strategy in the Middle East.

Insights
  • Incumbent senators face minimal primary challenges due to structural advantages, making Paxton's competitive position against Cornyn with limited funding historically significant
  • Corporate lobbying interests and pharmaceutical companies fund opposition to Paxton due to his litigation history against major corporations as Texas Attorney General
  • Oil market speculation and geopolitical conflict create arbitrage opportunities for producers, with messaging and transparency critical to public support for military operations
  • Republican establishment operates as controlled opposition to Trump agenda, with Cornyn exemplifying systemic deep state protection within GOP leadership
  • Paxton's electability in general election may exceed Cornyn's despite primary challenges, as Trump-aligned candidates demonstrate broader voter appeal

This is the primal scream of a dying dream. Pray for our enemies. Because we're going medieval on these people. Here's how I got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people, the people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop that it's going to happen. And where do people like that go to share the big line? I wish in my soul I wish that any of these people had a conscience. Ask yourself what is my task and what is my purpose. If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. War is here's your host Stephen K. Bannon. It's a Monday 9 March year of order 2026. As I said, it's from the movie 12 o'clock. Hi, hey, we're in a shooting war now. We got to win this thing. Whether you like how we got here or you don't like how we got here. And I'm not crazy about how we got here, but you've got people in harm's way. In fact, we had another KIA announced last night now to be brutally frank. I don't remember and we followed this pretty closely. It was announced they got killed from injuries on March 1st, sustained in Saudi Arabia on an attack on American military. I don't quite remember that being reported on one March. And I realize you have op-sec. You definitely have op-sec. But if you want to build support and build real support that's going to last more than 24 hours, but I mean, really build support for your endeavor, there's just got to be a different messaging. It's got to be a different information. I keep saying, Sencom has got to get more like Norman Schwarzkopf in explaining and given the big picture of what we're trying to accomplish here. And let me be specific about that. And you know, I think the world of Pete Hexeth, we nobody fought for Pete Hexeth's confirmation more than this audience in this show. When they were about to trade Pete Hexeth out for Ron DeSantis, we had Pete Hexeth back and then we had Pete Hexeth back to get to 50 votes, which then vice president Vance had to put in the 51 to get him confirmed. That being said, the 60 minutes interview last night. He just can't sit there and go shine us on about imminent threat. Oh, yeah, it's not an imminent threat. So I said, no, it doesn't work like that. The people in the messaging part, moreover, they're going to get serious about this. And it's all turned short term pain for long term gain. Go. The American people are not known for taking short term pain when it comes to economics, particularly oil and gas. So I'm saying the messaging has to conform with the military strategy without giving away the sequence. President Trump, is that keeps saying he wants optionality and wants a range of alternatives and never box him in because he's a disruptor and he can pivot hard. But you're going to start losing people if there's not consistency. And last night was 60 minutes just to kind of shine on imminent threat. No, no, no, no, no, no, incorrect. I'm not sure. Incorrect, Mr. P. Texas. It was imminent threat. And I'd like to know about that, imminent threat because I think you showed last night or the thing that was not an imminent threat. And now we're in it. Now we're in it. Bowling. And you know, this thing is going to explode. So tell me once again, why people are misinterpreting what's happening on the oil and gas situation. Right now, let's say Kuwait, he's got hit. There's been a barrage. As we've come on the air, I think there's been a barrage. Rabbi Walikit told me there's been a barrage into Israel of missiles from these guys. And they proved yesterday, and I think the sun's already been hit already. These guys are the hardcore, first of all, they're Persians. So they got an attitude to start with, right? And then you layer on top of, you know, you take this rasterism off and you layer on top of this radical form of Islam, which is martyr-based. They're digging in. And look, you can dig them out. You got the greatest military in the world. They can deliver a punch. Hey, and the Israeli's punch way above their way too. But bowling, walk me through the situation with oil and gas. You're saying it's being totally misinterpreted. And you've got, President Trump has massive leverage. And if we use that leverage, we're going to see Sunlit Uplands. So today is a day I need a sunlit, I need to be able to see a Sunlit Upland. So that's why we dragged it. We're going to take a lot to do this. What do you got? If I may just start this off with, you know, one of the things that you probably don't like about me, although I think it goes hand in hand, I believe America first, I believe Steve Bannon developed America first. I'm a libertarian, so I hate foreign conflicts to start off. However, we're sitting right now to, we're going to be in $4 gasoline in territory within a week or so. No matter what happens down on the road, if it stays, oil stays above $100 a barrel, we're going to hit $5 a barrel. That's bad for the economy. The most of the economy is the diesel number. $5 a gallon. $5 a gallon. Hang on $5 a gallon. $5 a gallon. The same is stays above us. $100 a week. You're going to have $5 gasoline. Okay, what about, but what about diesel? You're going to find out the country runs on diesel. Yeah. What about these runs on diesel? Every single product, every product in the world really has a diesel component to it. Right now, diesel is $450. Truckers are getting painted the pump. It's going to be five. It's going to be six. No matter how fast this, this conflict concludes, that's real. That the economy is going to jet fuel jumped 140% three days ago. And it's not even including the $100 barrel oil right now. So everything we do to transport food and products, everything will get more expensive. That's inflationary. The economy isn't risked. So the libertarian enemy says, well, what do we do about that? Steve, here's your, here's the solution. Now, Trump has developed a lot of influence. He's got a lot of cards to play. He's got a lot of Trump cards to play. Venezuela and Iran right now, specifically. Venezuela has the ability to produce, and they used to produce three million barrels a day. Right now, they're one because of all the corruption over the last 20 years. Iran has the ability to produce seven million barrels a day. They're producing three because of the sanctions and whatnot. There's a very, very smart solution, but it takes guts. It takes Cahoney's and you got to go in there and Trump's the only guy that can get this done. I would love to help him do it. I know we can do it. There are public private partnerships right now in petroleum. Saudi Iran, Co is mostly owned by the Saudi government, but partially owned like Petro China. Petrobras, Brazil, Gazprom in Russia, public private partnerships. You have Venezuela and you have Iran on their knees right now. Put your foot on their neck like you are and then say, I'll tell you what, the American boot comes off of your neck. The minute you sign a relationship with the United States where our oil companies achieve you, we get your additional production that we can get you to. There's seven million additional barrels between Venezuela that we could help them produce. They would still, we would produce it, but guess what happens then, Steve? I told you earlier, we used 20 million barrels of oil a day in this country. We produce 13 million barrels a day. The gap between what we produce here and use is seven million barrels. We can guarantee for our lifetime never having to need another outside force with the exception of Iran and Venezuela, which we would own as a partnership going forward as part of a deal to let them go back to being other countries. Very simple. They get what they want. They get their country back. We get what we want. We get what we want. Oil independence, real oil independence. No one's ever come up with this. No one's ever thought of this. This is the way to do it. What the boot on the neck of the Mullahs is a no chance that Guyana and golf of America and other other opportunities we have here can ramp up to that level to take Iran. You would have to do it with Iran. Iran has three to four million additional barrels of production per day that we could extract. They were there in 1995 or so. And it's slid ever since. We can ramp up their production. They haven't been able to do it on their own because they wanted to go with this nuclear proliferation pipe dream that no one should allow them to do. Part of the deal should be we're going to do a private public private partnership with you with our oil. It's to the additional oil. Bring you up so you're not going to be any worse off. Just the additional oil that we allow you or keep or produce with you. We're going to come down fair price at a market price oil will never spike to $100 again ever ever. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. I don't know if you're going to get the oil. Add to the panic and push prices up. They always come back down. This is not a supply. There's no reason supply reason supply and demand reason for $103, which it just traded $103. There's no reason for that. When you eliminate that because you say, you know what the United States is the big dog in the space. We use more oil than any other country on the planet by far. And so when there's a fear of disruption of oil, Kuwait says we have to force measure oil today. We have to force measure price spikes $10. Kuwait. It's a couple million. It's a million barrels a day at the very max. It's not a permanent force measure. It's a temporary until the straight of hormones. Here's a way to eliminate all these stupid news stories, all these stupid talking heads that are talking a huge, you know, into the world game on television. We fix it. Here's what should be important. On another foreign drop of oil in the entire history of America. Think about that. Well, it is your art and dependent. You're just in some joint. You're in some partnership where you're the controlling entity or somehow. You've got a working agreement where you're calling the shots. The oil itself is not exactly from the right. 51% with President Trump, the chairman. President Trump's the chairman. It's going to be another piece. You have to deal with that guy every day, right? This is what we're going to do today. Before I lose you real quickly, let's go back to the straights of hormones. And insurance, right? Because guys are calling for sure all the time. They're going to want guys to pay for this. So talk to me. The 20 bay. How right you are. The reason why Kuwait is the clearest force measure. Maybe some of the other Arab countries that are getting hit are going to declare force measure is. Because those oil barrels that they were going to ship and transport were traded about $65, $60. They're seeing $100 price tag. They can declare legally. They want to declare force measure deals broken. And now they're getting the arbitrage. It's an arbitrage. It's a total. You're 100% right. It's arbitrage. Anyway, we've got a bolt. We're going to have a look at this. Where do people go for your content, including your new. Was it the new show, the edge? We talked to people that have the edge, sir. We talked about S is all over the country. But it's the edges on you. I'm really proud of being the leading show to the war room at four o'clock. Into your war room episode on real America's voice. It's been great. It's been great. Great relationships, Steve. A month ago. Amazing. Amazing. Eric Bowling. Eric, social media also. Because you're putting stuff up on the time. Where are you going to social media? Everywhere at Eric Bowling, B-O-L-L-L-I-N-G. Just follow me and just love to have you join us on the edge. There's the edge right there. Steve, I appreciate that very, very much. Every time I come on, there's like, you know, I get a couple of hundred followers. There's subscribers. So subscribe. And I'm going to talk to you about the show. It's bad asses, guys being guys. No more world crap. You can do what you want and succeed and perform. And masculine toxicity. We lean into it instead of fear. Yeah. That's what we do. Oh, man, I love it. I want people to pile into that day. Bowling you're the best. Talk to you after the show. We'll work on this present Trump with all the leverage to basically take the speculation. You know this phone is very well send it in. This is the best idea. Guaranteed are not thinking about it. No one's ever said that. And that's that's the solution. That really is a solution. We'll get the clip over there. Thank you so much, Eric. I appreciate you taking time to swore to do this. Thanks, Steve. Okay. We're going to pivot. And we're going to pivot. We come back. It's going to take some time. But the audience needs to see this, particularly the great folks down in Texas. Natasha Owens takes us out. Take your phone out and text ban and B-A-N-N-O-N-At-9898. This gets you to the birch gold ultimate guide. It's totally free and there's no obligation.

A New Year means New Financial Goals. Like making sure your savings are secure and diversified. Will this be the year you finally listen to me and talk to someone from birch gold group? Honestly, the great people. I appreciate their educational approach and their understanding of macroeconomics. There are forces pushing the dollar lower and gold higher.

That I believe you're a good and decent man. There's been delta in very difficult hands. I was listening with interest to our friend and colleague from Minnesota to talk about the Russia investigation. And I agree with her 100% that it is our responsibility to get to the end of February. That it is our responsibility to get to the bottom of what exactly happened. Due to Russian involvement in our elections. Much as they got involved in the elections in France, using a combined process known commonly as active measures. It's a combination of cyber espionage. It's propaganda. It's a use of social media through paid trolls who can actually then try to raise the visibility of some of this propaganda, such that it then becomes part of the mainstream media, becomes accepted in part of the debate in democratic societies. I believe that we do share a bipartisan and universal commitment to get to the bottom of what happened in our last election. Senator Feinstein has said recently that there is no evidence of collusion between the administration and Russia. But I think she would share with me a commitment to not stop there. People are concerned and I share that concern. And we need to come up with a program of countermeasures to deal with this, because the Russian government has been amping up their game for some time now. And now they are operating at certainly dangerous levels when it comes to trying to interfere in our most basic democratic institutions like our elections. Rod Rosenstein was confirmed by this body by a vote of 94 to 6. Because of his distinguished record, most recently is the United States attorney in Baltimore. That's why the investigation of the bipartisan Senate, like Committee on Intelligence, is so important. In addition to the hearings we're having on the Judiciary Committee, which the Senator from Minnesota and I happen to be on as well. So we do need to get to the bottom of what happened and I'm confident we will. It is our duty and we will get the job. You used to have confidence in Dr. Fauci after his testimony yesterday. Obviously Senator Paul Braun, don't you? I mean Dr. Fauci is a very, he's a national treasure, like a lot of the healthcare providers we've been hearing from. So I mean, we assure Republicans who voted for Trump that none of this is being slow walked. I know a lot of people who work on Capitol Hill who were Republicans who did not vote for Donald Trump. They voted for Hillary Clinton. Some of them are in your office by the way. Are you sure that your staff is true? Are you sure that your staff and the staff of other leaders on the Republican side of the Senate and the House are really supportive of this agenda? Madam President, ours is a nation with a split screen of a battle on two fronts. One is the pandemic that we've been fighting now for many months and the other is to continue the fight to defeat racial injustice that has sadly divided our nation since its very inception. One week ago today George Floyd, a native Houstonian, was tragically died in the custody of a law enforcement officer. As the gut-wrenching video of his death spread, so has the passion and the anger among all of us who wonder how can something like that happen. Our Constitution guarantees every American the right to protest injustice and I believe we all have a responsibility to stand up for what's right and condemn what is plainly wrong. People of all color backgrounds and ages are demanding that justice be served in the case of George Floyd. The first step in that process came on Friday when the officer who had him in custody was himself arrested and charged with third-degree murder. This morning I had a very good conversation with Judge Merrick Garland, who President Biden is nominated for Attorney General. Judge Garland's extensive legal experience makes him well-suited to lead the Department of Justice and I appreciated his commitment to keep politics out of the Justice Department. That is my number one criterion for who should be the next head of the Department of Justice as Attorney General. And I think both sides should support a depoliticized Justice Department and that's what I hope Judge Garland once confirmed. I think the White House today with the number the speaker, the majority leader of both houses trying to figure out how to advance the presence of Jynna and get it accomplished and we are on that path as I speak. Well, part of his agenda is building a wall. He can't paint on it. Your state voted for him in part because of that. And then you recorded the other day saying you're not for a wall and the people of Texas are not for a wall. What gives you that impression? Consider I think you won your state nine points, something like that pretty definitive win running on the wall. What do you think your voters would not before that? Well, I'm the Texas border. And one reason I took my colleagues to Texas was to show them this 1200 mile border, some of which has 3,500 foot cliffs in the big bin area where no wall is really necessary. There are other areas where infrastructure is important barriers, if you say so to speak, but it's really a combination of personnel, technology and infrastructure. We're working right now with the Department of Homeland Security to come up with a plan to actually implement the president's goal of securing the border. It's long overdue and I fully support that. We intend to try to make that happen. But he said I'm run I mean not to be a stickler for on some antics, but he said I want a wall. I want a big beautiful wall. I mean that was from the first day of his campaign until last. I want a wall. So why would you think that voters in your state exempting like the cliffs, but for the rest of the border, why wouldn't they want a wall to? Didn't they vote for that? I don't think they I think they voted for border security. How we accomplish that? I think they expect us to use our best judgment to try to accomplish. It's really just a matter of political will. We know how to do it. It's the problem has been we haven't had a president who actually believed in border security. We do now. We're fully trying to support and implement that effort together with interior enforcement, which represents people who come in and overstate represent 40% of illegal immigration. And we don't do nearly enough to discourage that. Right. So for sure. So you think you're voting for the president when they voted for Trump. They didn't weren't voting for the wall. He promised they're voting for Republican senators to figure out how to secure the border, but they didn't really mean a wall when they voted for a guy who promised a wall. They expect us to use our best judgment and our experience to accomplish that goal. I think and a wall I have to tell you, Tucker is not going to stop illegal immigration. If you don't have the personnel on the ground to catch him. If you don't have the technology, the eyes in the sky in order to detect them. So border patrol can actually get there in time. There are places where a physical barrier is entirely appropriate. And we ought to be putting them there, but we ought to come up with the right combination that allows us to accomplish the goal efficiently and effectively without wasting taxpayer dollar. That's been my goal. Where Texas Senator John Cornyn was addressing the immigration issues now in the national spotlight. City officials and business leaders from across the valley gathered Friday at a luncheon to hear you as Senator John Cornyn deliver the state of Congress address. I can say the first hand experience in a new giant wall between the United States and Mexico from sea to shining sea makes no sense whatsoever. You've said that you think it's time for the Republican Party to move on from President Trump. What do you mean by that? Well, you know, in politics, unless you can win an election, you're pretty much irrelevant. And I just think it's critical that given the direction of the country now and the Biden administration that Republicans nominate somebody who can win a general election. President Trump has a very enthusiastic following the month of his base. But one thing I've learned through numerous elections is, yes, that's fine in a primary. But the goal is not just to win the primary, to win the general election. And to do that, you have to appeal to a broader range of voters, not just to the base. So as a tactical or practical matter, I have concerns about the president's ability to win in November. And I think winning in November is critical. It is simply and purely shocking. He doesn't care about you. He doesn't care about his voters. Any decent person that gets booed by their voters. Any decent person that all of a sudden gets rebuke by the very people that gave them political power would stop and say, maybe I'm heading in the wrong direction. And they'd back off. Instead, John Cornyn gets in front of the entire Texas Republican convention and gets booed. And then he goes back to DC and says, I'm going to show those people. I'm in a show that deplorables. I'm in charge, not you. I'm the senator, not you. I'm in charge. I have never in my 10 years of doing this seen such an intentional, brazen, and defiant mode of action as what I have just seen from John Cornyn. I'm not saying it's the worst bill I've ever seen. That's not true. I'm not saying that it's the worst vote I've ever seen. That's not the point. The point I'm making is I have never seen in my 10 years of doing this someone so openly rebuke by their voters and then so quickly turning 180 degrees around and saying, I don't care. I've never seen it. Usually when you show up to a town hall and you confront them, they say, OK, I'm done. I'm going to change my vote. Cornyn doesn't like you. Any jokes about it actually. Cornyn hates you. He knows he'll still get money from his corporate donors. He knows that. Instead of being allied with his voters and be like, maybe there's something I could learn here. He pokes them in the eye and says, no, no, no, no, no. I'm the senator. You. You're the surf. You're not a citizen. I'm in charge. President Biden said do something. So John Cornyn turned his back on Texas. Cornyn trampled on our conservative values and second amendment rights. Cornyn voted with Chuck Schumer and Bernie Sanders to pass the worst gun control legislation in 30 years. He stood with them instead of us. That's why President Trump can't trust John Cornyn calling him a rhino. John Cornyn betrayed Texas for the last time. Long Star Liberty Pack is responsible for the content of this advertisement. Boy and all that in the voice of John Cornyn. Charlie Kirk. What a giant. Absolute giant. The Charlie Kirk now it. Charlie Kirk's own voice. Of course he had the voice of John Cornyn. We're going to take a short very short break and Caroline Ren who helped compile that information of John Cornyn in his own voice. And then Charlie Kirk at the end to sum it all up. And then Charlie Kirk's short commercial break Caroline Ren on Paxton versus Cornyn in the jewel of the crown to stay the Texas next. So far away with you. My day. The world is getting more unstable and chaotic every day. It seems like every one everywhere you look. There's another crisis, another controversy, another conflict or just outright catastrophe. You can't control what happens out there, but you can control how you prepare for it. You can make sure that no matter what happens, you have the basics covered in case one of these disasters reaches your doorstep.

Caroline Renner, I just want to say that the Charlie Kirk clip was from my Beth 3 or 4 years ago. I think it was 20 late 22 23 something like that. But it was like we'd asked Charlie as we often did say, hey, can you come on at the 1130. Can you come on the C block of the of the worm? And Charlie would get up and with sometimes we talk about various topics. That's how it was. I mean, he had it nailed that. I mean, Charlie Kirk makes the case of what we're talking about today. So I don't see how. And it's not just. People got to understand this because he's pushing Lisa Monica. It's not corner doing a typical politician. This is very different and people must understand this. The people in Texas understand it. Hopefully the people run the president of standard. This is not the corner misspeaks or says something that later everybody has that you can play a clip or something. He is one of the driving forces for the protection racket of the deep state in Washington DC. That's why he's been around for 24 years. That's why the why do you think he's got all this money? He's got $80 million spend to destroy Ken Paxon because Ken Paxon is the exact opposite. They can't replace. If they could replace a corner with the younger version of corner, there would be no problem. There would be no fight. It's that they're replacing him with a mega warrior, an American first warrior. That is what's so unacceptable to the apparatus. And that's what this fights all about. The women is central to this. John Solomon starts the show with all the investigations in Maricopa County and in Georgia and all of it and folks were in 2026. And people are fighting every day behind the scenes. That's how tough it is. And I asked John Solomon at the end, what do we need to do to continue to have president Trump's back so he drives this so we get to the conclusion. Cornens and I said it's against massive resistance. That's what corner represents. Those clips show that he is he thinks it through whether it's Ron Rosen, Kranz and Rosenstein or Lisa Monaco. It's not that he's on the wrong side of a couple of issues. He's part. He's a systemic part of the problem. Caroline Ren. It's true. And as you were just saying, you can find a clip of anyone saying something. For example, let's go to the Fauci clip. There was a lot of people, including Donald Trump, who in the beginning of the pandemic, when it was scary, you know, who were saying nice things about Dr. Fauci. That clip though, just so we're clear, when John Corden called Fauci a national hero, that was in response to Donald Trump had just come out and said, enough is enough Fauci. We've got to open our schools. We've got to open our businesses. We've got to take mask off of our children. And John Corden runs to CNN is asked about that. And that is his answer. And that is over and over again. So even with these clips we're finding, we're being pretty fair to Cornens. It's not like we're put, I mean, Lisa Monaco too, by the Lisa Monaco, it had fully come out, her involvement in Russia gate. That speech that he gave was on the Senate floor when Biden had nominated Lisa Monaco to be the deputy attorney general of the country. And we knew he is the head of the Judiciary Committee. He knew everything that Lisa Monaco did in release of Russia gate. And still went on the Senate floor to get a full-throated endorsement for her nomination. This is why the Corden stuff is so bad. I just, I cannot even believe, I knew he was bad. It's not bad. No, no, no, no, don't use bad. Don't use bad. Don't use bad. Don't use bad. It's damning. It's damning. What you've been able to compile is damning. It's damning. This is not even a close call. Like I said, the Paxen is so different than that. He's a, we have a problem, we have a systemic problem with the deep state, right? A systemic problem. Part of that problem, you got Lindsey Graham and Corden, you got a two thirds of the Republican senators are in business with them. Corden is one of the leaders of that. And he sits on important committees to do this. The whole weaponization and law fair against Trump and his followers and J6 and all of it because Corden took the lead on that. This is what this is not a close call. And people that are working for Corden should be ashamed of themselves. Should be doing this for money should be ashamed of themselves. Corden is a tougher. They vote for Hillary. They vote for Hillary. They vote for Hillary. I'm sorry, I have this staff that works for him voted for Hillary. Like those, the Senate staff, the DC establishment, they despise Trump. They despise everything that Mog is stands for. You can so tell me with Corden, he just reeks of it, right? And people want to ask me, they're like, Carolyn, where are you finding all this op-o on Corden? I put this for those of you watching at home, if you want to help with this, it's pretty see. There's five steps. One, Google Donald Trump controversy. Two, pick a controversy. Three, Google that controversy plus John Corden. Then four, sip through dozens of statements from Corden criticizing Trump for said controversy. Step five, repeat the process. That's how easy it is. But I just, you know, there's endless, the amount of floor speeches that he's given, he always runs the go-to interviews with C-SPAN, PBS, MSMEC, and they're all out there. I think maybe five percent of them will come out. The Hutzpah, this is that his one positive campaign commercial, because of the $80 million, 90 percent of it was the tearing packs in the part, was about the wall. You would think he was sleeping in the Lincoln bedroom. He was so close to Trump. But every photo is in front of the wall. And I don't think there's any person, correct me if I'm wrong, on the Republican side, that fought the wall and sent you the senator from Texas. You got some say-so there, right? And just constantly, we don't need a wall. We need a couple of barriers. He hated the wall. He's one of the leaders in fighting the wall. And yet his spot, because he thinks people are stupid, no to self. People are not stupid. And they can see this. What they just need to see is see it in his own voice. And that's what you're doing in the people that are crowd sourcing this, are just in his own voice, right? And he still had the guy that Combs director that's another Trump hater is attacking you, saying, oh, you don't see the big picture here. He's 99.9 percent in back of Trump. That's just another lie. And it doesn't wash anymore. That's the important thing. It doesn't wash Caroline. No, he can't back up any of those. Quimps. Everyone loves to say that they voted 99 percent with Trump. The whole premise of that answer is ridiculous anyway. Most of those like procedural type of votes. And especially when you have someone like John Corning, who again, with every single time the media or anyone has criticized Donald Trump, Corning has run to a television camera to pile on and criticize Donald Trump as well. So when you're faced with a fax here, which is campaign is I think struggling to deal with right now, there's just no justification that you can make for any of this. And I wish more of this had come out earlier, but the problem too is just the amount of money, right? They're running television ads that are just Corning Trump, Corning Trump, Corning Trump. And they're putting tens of millions of dollars behind it. And so if you're a low propensity voter who's, you know, not going out and searching for your own information here, and you just kind of tune in right before elections. And you go vote maybe you wanted to vote in your county race and you to see the incumbent senator. Like that's why it's very hard to take out incumbents. I mentioned it's no Republican or actually either party, no incumbent senator has lost their primary since 2002. That is 25 years since an incumbent senator has lost a primary. That's why what Paxton has done with almost zero dollars in the most expensive state, a massive state like Texas, is so unbelievable and impressive. And also why he is a more electable candidate in the general. Well, this is why there's going to be X percentage. I think 10 to maybe 20% of the mega base that just will never vote for John Corning. It's not going to happen, particularly after the vitriol in this first round. The vitriol is coming in the second room. What is your call to action? Obviously, a lot of the war impassion, the mega base are very upset about this. They want to take action. I think putting these clips up the last week has really, I think, empowered people even more. Now they really want into the fight because they understand there's a there's a huge stake here. About the direction of this. So what's your call to action? Where do people go? I think for a second, I want to touch on we've talked a lot about white corns, unelectable, but I want to speak to why Ken Paxton needs to be elected. Why is DC so against him? And of course you have to follow the money. Go look at the money behind this primary. It is all the major corporations in the lobbyists. And you know why they don't want Ken Paxton because Ken Paxton does not answer to money. He is a fact sued every major corporation in this country as a text as attorney general on behalf of the people of Texas. He is sued BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street for conspiring to manipulate the energy markets. He sued Meta and forced them into $1.4 billion settlement for violating our privacy rights. He took on the CCP by suing Xi'in team youth for toxic products at spyware. He sued the opioid companies, securing billions. He sued all the major insulin manufacturers. He sued Eli Lilly. These are the same companies that fund groups like Senate leadership fund and the NRSC and others. This is why they're pouring millions in. And this is why you, the people, have got to step up to fight these corporations, to fight the DC establishment, get Ken Paxton in so that you actually have a senator. It's very rare to have this, a senator who is going to fight for you and not for the pharmaceutical companies. Exactly. And there couldn't be more clear. And this is why you know Paxton or Cornyn as a central defender of the deep state and Paxton as a member. When all these comments were going on, when Cornyn was rubbing up on Biden and telling you how great a judge, Mary Garland, was going to be. And we have to take politics out of the Justice Department. Look at those brazen lies, the tell you how dumb he thinks you are. At the exact same moment in early 21 in those confirmation hearings, we're, we're, Cornyn's glazing them in a proof confirming Lisa Monaco in, in, in, in Marigarland. And everybody, all these demons, all these demons that we're now finding out with the investigation of Solomon and what's going on in the FBI. All these demons that weaponized the Justice Department against President Trump in his followers to try to destroy this rep, on an illegitimate regime that stole it in the first place. Cornyn's their lap dog glazing them at the same time. Remember what you were doing. Having the back of a guy like Ken Paxton, Ken Paxton came on the show as the first guest after the phony inauguration of Biden. Remember he had the circles drawn in like 50 people showed up. We were up on the roof for the first part. We wouldn't got back into the war room for the five o'clock show. First guest, Ken Paxton. What did Paxton say? Where they're inside the Constitution? I'll support him. Where they're outside the Constitution. I'm going to go to court. I think Pat Paxman was court the next day on the executive orders he signed to start the fricking invasion of our country and Cornyn saw it and Cornyn supported it and Cornyn glazed them. This is not even close. This is an outrage. Go back in time. You have to remember the history here and you have to remember the people that stood in the breach. Paxton stood in the breach. And what did they do to Paxton? They didn't impeach team. This show was the platform to stop them in their tracks to try to destroy Paxton. Paxton, the new Paxton was going to come and run for the Senate. You have to understand what's going on here. You want to drain the swamp. You want to beat down the corporation of destroying this country. You want to beat down this political class. There's ruling class and the sat there. And this is why I say don't blame it on the Democrats. The Republican establishment is just as guilty as controlled opposition in the destruction of this republic and exhibit one is John Cornyn. So if you don't stop it here, I don't hear any whining afterwards. We know what our task and purposes. So everybody put their shoulder to the wheel. Let's get to work where they go, Ren. That was brilliant. I totally agree. And they can follow me at Caroline, Ren on X to social and get her. Thank you, man. Appreciate you. Keep fighting. Thanks. This is not close. Remember the history, particularly this audience that was there, particularly this audience that fought it every day. Remember when President Trump exiled to Marlago. Remember that. Remember, and then, and then, and then Cornyn with all, all puffed up doing the interview. Well, you know, the elections are about, you know, being able to do screw you. Don't want to hear your happy talk. Trump not only ran the tables in the in the in the primaries we said he would. He then came back and won the presidency in the greatest victory probably in American history in 2024. Disgusting. This can tax and have faults. Absolute. President Trump has folks. Caroline, Ren has faults. Stephen K. Bannon has faults. Ken Paxson has faults. The soap is going to jump. He's got faults. Praise the rosary to try to pray to God overcommon, but we all got faults. Paxson does too. It's not the point. It's it. In fact, it's irrelevant to the point. Short break. We will pray to the rock. God. We rejoice when there's no more. Let's take down the CCP.

War of here's your host Stephen K. Matt. So we do have the clip but I'm not going to get a cut to this afternoon of Dan seniors and post so big. You're an intelligence officer and senior was on CNN you're saying we have the clip. I'm going to play this afternoon when we have it trimmed. That there's never been a more organized integrated command structure for targeting between the Israeli military and Air Force and IDF and the American that they're in the same room and same comment yet we have on Saturday night. And then they're going to say, hey, the American command was dismayed. In fact, the president so upset he's going to call the senior guys over there and say what in the hell is going on. I don't want oil assets hit because it's going to be a lot of money. So they're pretty dialed in and they say, hey, the American command was dismayed. In fact, the president so upset he's going to call the senior guys over there and say what in the hell is going on. I don't want oil assets hit because it's going to take this in a different direction. It is impossible. It's possible. For then to be any miscommunication in this command center unless something was hidden from the Americans, sir. Well, Steve, of course, when we talk about joint targeting, this is something that we also it harkens back to the Ukraine war where we remember that in the auspices of Ukraine that there was a targeting center operated out of a gymnasium on one of the US bases outside of Stuttgart. In Germany where a lot of the Ukrainian general staff, the target tears would be sitting with American target tears. They'd be sitting there painting Russian targets Russians in the field. And of course, many have pointed out other president Trump says that he that he hasn't seen evidence of this that some of those rumors that Iran or excuse me, Russia has been providing targeting of American forces in American bases to Iran that of course harkens directly back to that who we also seen providing targeting information. Is the Chinese Communist Party and the CCP with their satellites are putting up near real time imagery again and again of American targets American shipping American bases China is filming for lack of a better term in real time the American war machine and the Israeli war machine to understand everything about our refueling times are reloading times our tactics are procedures they could see everything from their eyes in the sky. However, when it comes to the issue of strikes and of course I read the axios article as well from Caputo and revealed these guys have been dialed in from before the start of this they called the start of this that it talks about that the expansive nature of the specific target packages that Israel hit over the weekend and everyone saw of course those striking images the plumes of smoke the oil fires the gas fires reminds a lot of people of the images of 1991 the Gulf War. When the oil fields of Kuwait were set on fire that once again we're seeing those those stark fuel fires and this time again right over the skies of Tehran that this this article saying that you know you've got White House officials saying that the US was not aware that the scope of the Israeli strikes these 30 air these 30 fuel depots which are hit on Saturday when far beyond what the US expected when Israel notified its advance sparking the first significant disagreements. So I'm going to say that the US is a very important part of the problem that between the allies since the war began and of course this is something that the president has talked about and has been tweeting and true thing about all throughout the weekend is the impact on oil prices the impact on on the fuel supply to the world the impact of all of this between gas prices oil now over $100 a barrel looking at 120 very rapidly we haven't seen a steep escalation in the global price of crude the price of crude per barrel like this in decades reminds people a lot of 2007 they the surge hit you know coupled with the financial crisis of when gas prices were topping four dollars a barrel and keep mine that was for our excuse me for dollars a gallon and that was four dollars a gallon in two thousand eight dollars so you're talking you're looking at five dollars six dollars a bar or a gallon here in twenty twenty six numbers and so with president Trump saying wait a minute you know we wanted to have access to the oil we wanted the United States hopefully be able to receive the oil similar to the Venice Whale model which has been pushed out again and again since this conflagration began and it also Steve speaks to the ability perhaps of the of mission creep the situation of mission creep whereby in the initial hope when initial planning was for a quick collapse of the regime decapitate and delegate just like in Venice Whale this is the Wall Street Journal called it but instead what you're now seeing is a tax on the oil infrastructure and as I said here the other day this is something where Iran could very quickly retaliate because the one country in all of this that is not an oil rich country is of course Israel itself in Israel's military is fueled by oil that comes predominantly 50% to 60% from azure by john that's why you saw those attacks early on by the regional commanders were told of the IRGC when they were given that independent control and fire control that their targeting was directly on well supplies that flow from azure by john through pipelines into turkey and then down into ports at ashkalan and hypha were there then refined and then given out to the IDF and of course the Israel to Israel proper and so this is something that Iran could very quickly ratchet up to be able to put a huge dent in Israel's ability to make war on them.
