In this installment of today's podcast, Mary chats with retired US Army Lieutenant Colonel Robert Maginnis about his book, "Preparing for World War III". Robert graduated from the U.S. Military Academy, the Naval Postgraduate School, the Command & General Staff College, the Defense Language School and the Army War College's strategy course. He is an Airborne-Ranger infantry officer with service in four infantry divisions on three continents. So many accomplishments, far too numerous to list here, but he is an experienced and internationally known expert on national security and foreign affairs. In addition, Colonel Maginnis has decades of media experience as a columnist, a Fox News military analyst and as an on-air commentator for multiple radio programs and networks to include Salem Radio Network. Today's subject might not be something we like to think about, but in our chaotic world, and when measured against the sure word of Bible prophecy, we know that wars and rumours of war are part of the package. In the book, he outlines 6 sections that help us add to our knowledge about such a world-realigning event. Is the world ripe for war? What have we learned from previous wars? What does the 21st century battlefield look like, in terms of technology and AI? What might some of the flashpoints be, and can it be deterred? Finally, how to prepare our local communities and what our role as Christians should be, our priorities. A fascinating hour with an experienced geopolitical icon.     Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Lee Habeeb, who is the Vice President of Content and host, along with six other "storytellers", of the Salem Radio Network's program called "Our American Stories. The program is now five-and-a-half years old, episodes are each two-hours long, they appear five nights per week, and covers stories about American heroes -- well known and ones who are largely unknown, but surely merit public recognition. The title of each program seems to be eye-and-interest catching; for example: "No hands: No problem. Overcoming the Loss of Both My Arms", "The Blue Collars Leader of America's Most Innovative University", "Abolitionist John Brown", a "Washington's Farewell Address: The Story of America", and "Martin Luther: The Man Who Rediscovered God and Changed the World".

The No. 1 city sports very little government debt per capita ($564, as opposed to larger cities that fall in the $25,000-$35,000 range), a low crime rate, increasing home values, and robust growth in median annual income and the number of businesses.

In this episode, we welcome Elisha Krauss, a distinguished journalist, speaker, and radio host based in Los Angeles, California. Elisha's story starts in Southeastern Oklahoma, where she grew up as the homeschooled middle child of an entrepreneurial mother and a father who served extensively in the military before becoming a corporate pilot. At just 18 years old, Elisha moved to New York City for college and quickly made her mark by becoming ABC's youngest radio producer during her first year. Opting to leave college, she fully immersed herself in her media career.  Prior to her move to Los Angeles in 2013, she served as the Senior Producer for The Sean Hannity Show, and she also engaged in campaign management and media consultancy. In Los Angeles, she stepped in as a co-host alongside Ben Shapiro and Brian Whitman on the Salem Radio Network, succeeding Heidi Harris. Beyond her impressive career in media, Elisha has also contributed significantly as the Outreach Director for Prager University.  Living under the public eye, especially in a politically charged climate that often challenges differing opinions, Elisha has swiftly learned the critical importance of valuing the voices that truly matter.

Dr. Gorka, thank you for your time today. (Dr Sebastian Gorka) My pleasure. Thank you for having me. Great to have you on. And of course, former Deputy Assistant to President, nationally syndicated radio host of America First with Sebastian Gorka and best-selling author. And people can find you obviously @SebGorka. And we'll get into some of your thoughts on your Twitter page in a little bit. But, Dr. Gorka, if I can ask you, maybe first, looking at the GOP, back at the beginning of President Trump's first term in office, he trusts the GOP to fill those, I guess, 3,000-odd positions to keep the system running. And he seems to, I think everyone seems to have learned that there was a concerted effort to push back. But it seems to be that the President has realised he needs to fill those positions himself and there's a concerted effort to fill those positions with the brightest, the best patriots that America have, do you want to just let us know about that because he is going into this with his eyes wide open. Well, absolutely, after what they did to him and to his administration the first time round. And this is my greatest concern going forward, because it is clear the American people want him back. He's trouncing Biden in the polls. If you look at the primary results, we haven't even finished the primaries. He's already broken his record for 2016. So whether it's wars across the world, the state of the economy, 16 million illegals, President Trump, if there is a free and fair election, will be God willing, if we do our part, the next president. However, as Ronald Reagan taught us, politics, you know, personnel is politics. And I am very concerned that we not have what we had last time, which is even at the cabinet level, subversives in the Trump administration. So we can't make that mistake again. However, I give credit to the left. My friend Chris Plant, who has the morning show here in D.C., has made this point very eloquently over the years. Why would a decent person, especially a family man or a family woman, why would you work in a Republican administration, especially a Trump administration? You look at my example. Look, I don't mind getting attacked by the left because, of course, I'm a proxy for the president. But when they came after my wife, I had one journalist write 52 hit pieces on me in three months. And when one of the articles named my 18-year-old son and called him a traitor in the headline, what person wants to actually put up with that? I mean, I'm prepared to do it again. And there's a handful of us who served in the Trump administration who understand America First, who are loyal to the president, are loyal to the mandate he received already, are prepared to do it again. But there are 4,000 positions, 4,000 presidential appointees. What lunatic is prepared to have the inhuman treatment meted out against them from a quote-unquote elite in the media that just dehumanizes. I mean, from Hillary's deplorables comment to Biden last year standing in front of one of the most important buildings in the world for us when it comes to American history, which is Independence Hall, bathed in red light, flanked by two Marines in their dress blues, and he calls half the nation fascists, MAGA extremists. I mean, this is how radical the left has become and how they've dehumanized the others. So, yeah, I mean, you've hit upon my neuralgic point, which is the personnel policy, if we win, God willing, will be second Trump administration. We cannot get it wrong this time. We just cannot get it wrong. What does seem that the left are utterly vicious and ruthless in going after individuals and I had the privilege of watching the president speak twice when I was over last in Pennsylvania and then down South Carolina and it's an hour and 40 minutes of a political speech I've never seen before and I've been involved in politics in many years in the UK but it connects you at a heart level as opposed to the head level and he knocks off those attacks but the left are adamant that they will go after individuals. Let me give you one concrete example, lest, you know, your listeners and viewers think this is just, you know, Sebastian Gorka's axe that he's grinding. So I had a colleague, I was deputy assistant to the president. My colleague, Peter Navarro, was assistant to the president for trade policy. He was one of the key architects of our China policy. Peter was subpoenaed by the infamous January 6th Committee of Congress, which was illegally constituted. So an investigatory, I don't want to get into the weeds, but an investigatory committee of Congress has to have delegates from both parties. It can't just be the majority party. Nancy Pelosi refused the then speaker to accept nominations from the Republican Party. So she picked a couple of the worst Trump haters who are nominal Republicans, Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. And as such, this was an illegally constituted committee. Peter Navarro receives a subpoena from this congressional committee, ordering him to come and testify. He says, A, it's an illegal committee, I'm not going to comply. B, I have it in writing from President Trump that my work for him is covered by the executive privilege, which is a constitutional statute in America that the discussions between the president and his aides are protected and they can't just be just willy-nilly divulged to anybody. Peter lives one block away from the FBI. When he was in contempt of this subpoena, which is a misdemeanor offense, not a felony, it's a misdemeanor. Instead of the FBI writing to Peter or writing to his lawyer, could your client come to our offices tomorrow morning and we'd like to present him with his breach of congressional subpoena documents. Instead, my colleague, a renowned economist, academic professor, was tracked by the FBI to Reagan Airport, which is the airport for Washington, D.C. And after he boarded a plane on a business trip, he was arrested in public, not only handcuffed. This is when you realize we are in a police state. And I say that with all sincerity. He was handcuffed and put in leg shackles, which meant he had to shuffle out of the airport like some slave on a chain gang. Then he was taken to the FBI headquarters where he was strip searched on a congressional misdemeanour charge. He is now sitting, as of two weeks ago, he is sitting in a federal prison in Florida, serving a four-month sentence for being in contempt of Congress. So, you know, this is the left. This is the left. They talk about President Trump and MAGA is a threat to democracy. Well, the only fascists I see right now are the Democrat Party, Biden's DOJ, and the FBI. A woman, I had her daughter literally text me on Friday, said, my 73-year-old grandmother, who spent 10 minutes inside Congress praying for the nation on January 6th, has just been charged with four charges that will lead her to spend a year in prison. A 73-year-old grandma who's going to be on my radio today has been charged with being inside of Congress and praying, Peter. Yeah, I've seen the praying grandma. I've seen a number of clips of her and Peter's book, Taking Back Trump's America, certainly was an eye opener for me. And I learned a lot reading that. And of course, we've had some of the anniversaries of the J6ers. There's no Jake Lang's now fourth anniversary of him in jail. I mean, what does that mean? How do you see, God willing, President Trump winning the election? Well, not winning, but allowed to win the election in November. What does that mean for, for instance, some of those J6ers in jail, hundreds of them in jail for years and years, simply for going and being part of that event? Well, the president has said this openly just last week. I was with him at Mar-a-Lago, and he said it the week before. All the J6ers who committed no violent crimes, who simply walked through the halls, through the velvet rope, every single one, all the cases will be reviewed, and the president will pardon them. Wow, wow. That's simple and decisive. What you'd expect from Trump as opposed to Biden, and it's like, here's the job, let's get this done. I mean, this is, we could talk about this for hours. This is how he functions. I mean, you don't get to be the most successful entrepreneur in the hardest market in the world, which is Manhattan real estate. You don't have the most successful TV show for 14 seasons in a row unless you're decisive. And I saw this in the White House. You know, when we made the argument, the Iran deal, Obama's Iran deal is bad for America, bad for Israel, bad for the Middle East and actually gives the Mullahs a bomb, he said, okay, we're canceling it. He didn't waffle. He didn't say, oh, let's create a task force or let's have a conference in Vienna. He said, no, we're going to kill it now. Absolutely. Can I ask you about the RNC? Because I've looked at this and the media have billed it as Trump taking charge, taking control of the RNC, which seemed to be one of the biggest pushbacks to his presidency, certainly at the beginning with all those appointments. It's now a very different situation with a lot of good people put in and what does that take over mean? And does that mean that actually moving past November and that he will be in a very different situation Well it's massively significant. I mean I said this when I was in The White House. I said it when I left The White House, Donald John Trump won the election despite the Republican Party, not thanks to the Republican Party. The Republican Party hates him. I mean, it's the same as, you know, Brexit and the Tories. It's the same as establishment politicians and Millei or Meloni. We have these establishment, look, I think Bannon popularized it here. We have the Uni-party. There's really not much difference between this amorphous blob that is the Democrats and the establishment Republicans. Why? Because the Democrats are lunatics who hate America, and the establishment Republicans, we call them RINOS, Republicans in name only, are cuckolds who just facilitate what the left does and never push back even when they're in majority. And they hate President Trump. To this day, the likes of Mitch McConnell and Mitt Romney think that 64 million Americans, voting for a man who'd never run for political office before, and him becoming president, they think that's an anomaly. They think that's, oh, just a blip, and we'll get back to business and footsie under the table with the Democrats. They have no comprehension of the global phenomenon that is populism. From Brexit, to Modi, to Maloney, to Orban, to Millei, you know, to Bolsonaro, there is a wholehearted international rejection of what a friend of mine called on my show recently, and I literally just wrote an article on this for my Substack, the un-accountable's. It's, you know, it's not left and right anymore. We've got to ditch that taxonomy. It's not even conservative and liberal. It is the unaccountable elites who are completely cosseted and insulated from anything in the real world. The price of petrol doesn't affect them. They think a six-quid almond latte from Starbucks is a good deal, and they don't give a crap whether manufacturing jobs have been shipped over to China or Mexico. As long as the Wi-Fi signal in Starbucks is good, they can do their job as, you know, chief DEI officer or, you know, head of HR for some woke corporation. And then there's the rest of us, the accountables who, you know, the plumber who, when the price of petrol goes up 300% under Joe Biden, you can't put food on the table for your kids. Or you're the legal immigrants who came here from Mexico 10 years ago, got in line, took the exam, paid the money. And you're a waiter in Dallas, and along comes this Nigerian illegal, one of the 16 million let in by Biden, who tells the boss of that cafe, I'll do Jose's job. For cash, for 50% of what Jose's doing. I mean, these are the people who pay the price of the betrayal of the people who build America, betrayed by the Democrats and their enablers in the Republican Party. So yeah, that's where we are today. And the GOP, look, Lara Trump becoming the co-chair, the firing of Rona Romney McDaniel. OK, let's be clear here. The chair of the RNC, the National Committee, was Mitt Romney, one of the biggest rhino Trump haters, niece. And her loss of eight elections in a row had to have some consequences. Now Lara's in charge. They've hired Scott Press, a friend of mine who's one of the best grassroots activists in America. And finally, the choice of the people will be reflected in the party that is supposed to be his party. So to put it very briefly, the Republican Party will finally be a MAGA America First Party. I saw one of your shows recently, I think it was Scott saying maybe it should be renamed America First instead of the GOP. That was actually my associate producer talking in my ear. He wants me to shut up about that because he wants President Trump to drop that at the convention. I think it's right. Why should we be called the Grand Old Party? I mean, we're not in the 19th century, right? I mean, let's have something that reflects the will of the American people. And I watched that interview with Scott. And that's exciting to bring in a different generation, actually have different ideas. And someone who's done the groundwork for 10 years really should be rewarded with a position to roll out what he's doing in an area actually nationwide. So it's exciting to see that, I guess, the boldness that Trump changing the RNC now can have for going forward. Yeah, yeah. Look, the proof of the pudding will be the convention. The proof of the pudding will be the results. But we're seeing some incredible, I mean, look, it's a little bit arcane and only relevant to American politics. But we have this primary system where state by state you choose the candidate to lead the party for the election. And I know New Hampshire very, very well. New Hampshire is not an America First state. It used to be conservative. Now a lot of hippies and, you know, idiots have moved in. The record for primary votes, for the most votes ever cast in a primary, is held by Bernie Sanders. That tells you just how, you know, woke a state it has become. President Trump broke Bernie Sanders' standing primary record in New Hampshire this year. I mean, these things are unprecedented. The fact that he, as of last week, he's had more people vote for him in primaries than voted for him in the whole primary season in 2016. I think there's a grand awakening. And if just, if only 60, 70% of the reports are true about the Hispanic and black vote. According to the polls, the president now enjoys the majority of Hispanic votes in America. That's just mind-blowing. The man who we've been told by the establishment of media is the racist, bigoted, you know, yada, yada, yada. He's more popular with Hispanic Americans. And I don't want to, you know, tempt fate. He's getting upwards of 28, 30 percent of the black vote if that if that preference translates into actual ballots on November the 5th the democrat party will implode, I mean they've had a lock for absurd reasons, they've had a lock on the black vote for 70 years, the party that created the KKK, the party that was the party of southern segregation and plantations has had a lock on that vote forever and if 20, 30 percent of them leave that's it, there will be a crisis in the democrat party and it will be long overdue. Yeah I'm seeing that break away from the tribal politics, how your parents voted to actually voting with your gut and your conviction which could be a massive change. Does Trump actually need to do debates head-to-head? Obviously, he pulled out of the ones with the Republican field because he said, what's the point, and did his own. And that was genius, pure Trump. But actually, going head-to-head with Biden, what is the point? He's so far ahead in the polls. How do you think he will play it? Because then you fit into the CNN, MSNBC, you fit in the Fox News, you fit into their schedules, and he doesn't need to do that. Well, no, he doesn't need to because they're both known quantities. They've both been presidents, one the most successful president of the modern era, biggest economy we've ever had, no wars for four years, crushed ISIS, stock market rallies literally every other day. I had to watch the ticker tape in my studio because there was a new stock market rally, which isn't just for the fat cats. Your pension is tied to that stock market. So people's 401k pensions are like blossoming. And then we've had what? We've had Biden, record inflation. Petrol got up to $7 a gallon in California. You've got the invasion of Russia, the invasion of Ukraine, the surrender of Afghanistan, war in the Middle East. So it really should be a very stark binary option. So do you need a debate? Not really. But President Trump's great troll comment last week that, yeah, we should have a debate as long as Biden is drug tested, because they found a bag of cocaine in the White House, which the Secret Service, mystically couldn't find any fingerprints on, despite a bag of cocaine being the perfect thing to find fingerprints on, because it's not porous. It's absolutely like a sheet of glass that's plastic, right? And they definitely pumped him full of something for the State of the Union because this is a guy who is not compos mentis. This is a guy who doesn't function. And then, you know, he actually ranted like a lunatic, like on speed or something for an hour during the State of the Union. So it was a perfect troll. Will there be a debate? I doubt it. I doubt they'd let Biden debate with President Trump. But, you know, who knows? politics has been pretty weird for the last 10 years in America. And earlier you mentioned about some of the populism and across Europe, also in Bolsanaro and Brazil. And we're obviously having the European parliamentary elections coming up in June with a massive rise in populism. And you understand this as a Brit, as someone who's Hungarian roots and studied in Hungary and now you're an American citizen. You've got quite a unique perspective and view on this. And I'm wondering how, because with Trump going into the White House, having an open and possible very good relationship with Europe, which wasn't there in the first place, I'm kind of sitting back intrigued watching how this will play out. Because this could be a new, very strong relationship linking Europe and the US. Well, it could. It just depends who wins the elections in Europe, right? I mean, if it's the right people like Meloni in Italy, absolutely. If it's the wrong people like the socialists, the trounce, truth and justice in Poland, then it'll be a different kind of relationship. But people need to understand the president has a very strong soft spot in his heart for Europe because of his family background. But just go back to that video, if your viewers haven't seen it. Go back to the video when the president spoke at the United Nations General Assembly, long before Biden and the invasion of Ukraine. And he said, very declaratively said, by way of wanted to help, he said, Germany, Europe, why are you buying energy from Russia? It makes you dependent on a dictatorial regime that has military goals against NATO members or border countries. And then the camera panned from the president warning Europe not to do that to the German delegation. And the German delegation was tittering and giggling, saying, what does he know about geopolitics? Well, isn't it funny that when we leave the office? Vlad does what he did, puts a stranglehold on the energy of the Baltic states, Hungary, the Ukraine, and then Germany has to literally do a 180 and say, oh, we like nuclear energy now, and we're going to stop shutting down our nuclear energy plants. So, you know, which part of Europe are we talking about? The unaccountable asshole elites who are arrogant and don't give a fig for the people? Are we talking about politicians like Nigel Farage who understand that the political elite has been roundly rejected by the people of Europe? That's what will affect relations. Who's in charge? Are they the, what is it, the Klaus Schwab fanboys and fangirls? Or are they people who believe in the sovereignty of their own individual nations? Well, it could be rewritten with AFD in Germany and Freedom Party in Austria. Yeah, but look at the UK. Look at the UK. The UK's a disaster. I was with Steve Hilton yesterday in California, and I'm like, this is a guy who worked in 10 Downing Street, and I said to him, so what is it with the Tory party? And he said, he can't even explain it to me. How does, he said, Sunak is just so wet, so pathetic, and this is the best the UK can do. So Nigel, get busy. A hundred percent. It's depressing looking at every other green shoot across Europe and looking at the UK and having zero. But yeah, I know Nigel is seriously considering his political future. But he's involved in media. And I want to ask you about media. Nigel, of course, very involved in media and in GB News, probably the star on GB News. and in the States, I think it was an Axios article a few weeks ago talking about a MAGA media juggernaut that seems to eclipse, no pun intended for today, but eclipse any influence that Fox ever had. You're right in the centre of that, as is Bannon, Charlie Kirk. I mean, the list is wide of the names of individuals who have stepped up to the mark and helped the public understand. Tell us about that, because to me, that will be part of winning this war and getting the message out over the next six months. Well when it comes to the media there's only one mass media platform that conservatives control and that is of course talk radio, the left has tried talk radio and it's always recuperative and bile filled and nobody can listen to it for more than three minutes. I mean, my show's only five years old. I've got three and a half million daily listeners. You look at the Rush Limbaugh slot that is now divided between Dan Bongino and a couple of other hosts, Buck Sexton and his partner. And Rush was getting 20, 22, 23 million people listening. Fox doesn't even do that. I mean, before Tucker left, Tucker had the most popular show. And on a good night, that was 5 million, which tells you why television is kind of irrelevant. I mean, 5 million in a nation of 340 million, and radio is multiples of that. Now, since then, of course, we have what in the last few years, the rise of the Breitbarts, Newsmax doing incredibly successfully, pushing Fox out. But the hope, I don't know if you can can pull it off. The renaming was the dumbest thing ever. But Elon's buying of Twitter, I mean, he's been very open about he wants to make Twitter, the multimedia platform, he wants it to be the the Twitter, YouTube, Google, Spotify, all in one information platform. And we'll see what happens with you know, the next thing is going to be video long form videos on that platform. And God willing, power to his elbow, absolutely do it. And then President Trump, I don't know how the left failed to sabotage him, but with the SEC giving him permission to have that merger of the Truth Social and the SPAC on the stock exchange, President Trump just affected a, what was it, $8 billion deal. I mean, I don't try a lot. I mean, I put my segments from my radio show on Truth Social, and then I kind of cut and paste whatever I'm putting on Twitter on Truth Social. So I'm not, you know, really working on Trump's platform. And without trying, I got 900,000 followers. Now, that tells you, and this is a free speech platform that's not full of bots that are being generated for political purposes. This is a true free speech platform in accordance with the First Amendment. So I don't have a crystal ball, but the media environment is, it is being shook up something fabulous. You look at how wokeism, I mean, you look at what wokeism has done to the likes of Netflix and HBO, and along comes Angel Studios with the Call of Freedom and that mega series on Jesus, that reinterpretation of Jesus. Chosen? Chosen, yeah. This is like a boiling cauldron of things that are forming and shaping. And it's going to be, I mean, look, I'm not a fan of Tucker. Tucker's become a clickbait animal, in my opinion. But the figures he's getting for his videos, that presages something very interesting for the future. It's funny when the left think they've got rid of a problem like Trump, like Tucker, and they come back to haunt them. I love it. And I love it when they say, oh my gosh, President Trump's running out of money, and then the SPAC merger is approved, and he garners $4 billion himself from that deal. It's like, oh my gosh, Biden and Obama and Clinton, they're so cool. They had a fundraiser in Manhattan last weekend and they raised 25 million and president Trump had a fundraiser by himself, this weekend and raised 50 million, you just, you gotta laugh. You do, you read the headline, there was a guardian hippies think on the RNC takeover saying oh well you know it hasn't gone as planned, you're thinking, well actually he's really, he's taken over the apparatus, the party machine and actually, it's going to take a little bit of time to get smooth running when you're taking over. But it was the headline was anti. And then you read and you think, wow, that's bloody good. Well, it's at the tactical level. So my wife, who hates politics because she's sane, she, because it's a long story, but there was a drag queen story hour at our local community center that provoked her to run for the board of that community center. And then she became an election officer because she was worried about the integrity of the election. So she became the chief election officer for our part of Virginia. And then on Saturday, because she's fed up with the... We are in the richest county in Virginia. It's the second richest county in America. And it's run by... The RINO class at the RNC under Rona used us as a piggyback. They took all the money from Fairfax County. And then they never gave any money back to our candidates. So my wife was convinced to run for the chair of the GOP in Fairfax County. And I thought, oh my gosh. I mean, she'd never mentioned my name once. She didn't mention in any of her campaign promotional material. She trounced. It was a primary to other candidates. She defeated the second-placed loser by 40 points on Saturday. And then, the hit piece is, oh, my gosh, MAGA, wife of Trump, takes over GOP. It's like, you know that's how democracy works. When 68% of the delegates, 68% said, yeah, we want her. It's so weird how the left really hates the will of the American people now. But that's what it's about. It's about winning. And it's easy in some ways to say, let's all move to West Virginia and get an area of freedom. But actually to stay and fight, that's what's difficult. And that's what's required to win. Right, right. It's like, who's that guy who wrote Liberal Fascists, that conservative who went lunatic, anti-Trumper? There's this, I can't believe he actually said it live on television. He's become, you know, the quasi-Republican on CNN. And here it's, oh yeah, so it's Jonah Goldberg. Jonah Goldberg was bashing Trump again on CNN or whatever, and he actually said out loud, all these small donors that President Trump is getting, it's a real problem because they don't understand the world, and it should be the policies of the mega donors that shape the Republican Party. I say, Jonah, did these words just come out of your mouth that the plebs, the plebs are stupid? How dare the people's desires like wanting to have a border and jobs in manufacturing? How dare, leave it up to the billionaires because they really care about America. Jonah Goldberg actually said that live on television. And he didn't apologize. He didn't catch himself and say, oops, I said the quiet bit out loud. These people believe it, Peter. They believe it. How dare, how dare the American people vote for Donald Trump? How dare they? I've seen a number of your tweets and you've been pointing that out, Biden at war, not with America's enemies but with America itself and America last, you put war on common sense, war on Christians, it's war on our children war on free speech. Think of this I was speaking in front of about a thousand conservatives yesterday in California and I think, this is so, to diagnose the situation we live in the most perverse of ages because never before has a society or a civilization been run by those who hate their own country. I mean, Obama said it. He said, I wish to radically transform, fundamentally transform America. Well, you don't love anything that you wish to radically transform. And it sounds extreme, but look at what just happened. The federal government, the federal government, whose number one duty is the safety of our citizens, That's its number one thing, is now suing the governor of Texas because he deployed his National Guard elements to put container boxes along the border to stop it. The feds were letting in the illegals, 10,000 a day. And the governor, Abbott, said, OK, well, I've got to do something because I'm responsible for the citizens of my state of Texas. In the Texas Constitution, it says he must secure his state if there is an invasion. So he moved the Conex boxes to just put a barrier along the Texan border. Biden is suing Texas for trying to secure the territory of America. It's like that's when you realize these people truly hate their own country and hate their own people. 100% and that's what seems to be the big two issues are the border and the economy and there are many other issues but I guess those two are simple election but then when the election is won you've got a much, well you've got a whole litany of issues that then need to be sorted out. Well yes I mean here's the massive irony. I'm going to write a piece on this today or tomorrow that, this is the delightful thing about the left. They're evil bastards. They hate Judeo-Christian civilization, but they're really quite stupid. Why did Donald Trump win in 2016? If you have to boil it down to one univalent answer, he won because of illegal immigration. I mean, the most powerful mobilizing slogan of 2016 was build the wall. I mean, that really was, if you had to choose one, it was build the wall. What have they just done in the last three and a half years, if there's one issue if you know you're running against him again, what's the one issue Peter, you shouldn't give to Donald Trump a second time round, you probably shouldn't give him the issue he won on the first time, you probably shouldn't give immigration back to him as a weapon and they haven't given it back to him as a weapon. They've given it back to him as a nuclear bomb. When you let in 10,000 illegals a day, and there's this guy who actually sealed the border eight years ago, you're actually re-electing Donald Trump on the same issue that you helped him to get elected on the first time. These people are cretins. I mean, they really are cretins. Completely, can I just finish off on education because it was your wonderful Oxford Union speech, I think it was the beginning of this year and it was Sebastian Gorka explains why America and the world needs president Trump back in office and you realize this is a battle for education for the next generation for children to actually rediscover the American dream that their parents fought for and strived for. But let me just tell, what was that like going into an arena where you are hated because you stand up for the best of a country itself? And then what are your thoughts on, actually, it is about reclaiming the education system? Well, look, I thought twice about it, because it's got to be as, a heart of darkness when it comes to wokeism but I've got to give them full credit, I mean really, it's not part of the University but it's affiliated to it and it's run by the students of Oxford so, and look when the Oxford Union invites you to debate on any subject you have to go, when you see the photographs of Einstein, Maggie Thatcher, Ronald Reagan who've all debated in that beautiful building, you don't say well sorry, I'm not, I'm too good for that, And so they believe, you may not have it in the British system, but they believe in a First Amendment and freedom of speech. And I'm just absolutely stunned that I had 120, 130 students vote for President Trump after I gave my speech. But let me tell you a story. So it's run by this committee who, interestingly, are mostly classic scholars. So the dinner beforehand was, you know, debating the Pliny versus Tacitus. I felt like I'd arrived in some Evelyn Waugh novel. It was quite, quite funny. But one of them, because you can only go and listen if you're a member of the union. One of these students, after I gave my pitch, he stood up, took the microphone, and he was a perfect exemplar of what we face. And he said, in front of hundreds of people, I mean, it was a packed crowd, standing room only, and I've literally just given my speech and I've traveled, what, 8,000 miles on my own dime. And he says, I hate you and everything your former boss stood for. And I'm an American. He was like an exchange student or whatever. And he said, I would rather vote for a dead twig than to vote for President Trump. And I accosted him afterwards over the little, you know, cocktails we were having. And I said to him, you do realize how privileged you are, that you're an American at Oxford, and you really shouldn't dehumanize other people. And to say in public that you hate a man you've never met before, and you'd rather vote for a piece of wood than a human being, you're actually dehumanizing at the level that the Nazis dehumanized somebody they politically disagreed with. And then to his credit, he apologized. He said, yes, you're right. And then literally 40 seconds later, he did it again. And he made an ad hominem attack against me in front of witnesses as we're drinking. And he just, the level of indoctrination is stunning. And I had the president of the Heritage Foundation on my radio show the week he was appointed. And he's a former president of a college in Texas. He's a fourth-generation educator, PhD in history. And my wife, who worked for Heritage at the time, smuggled me a question to ask him at the end of the hour. And I said, so, Dr. Roberts, it's exciting to see Americans take back the schools, the mama bears rising up against the insane COVID mandates, the masks, the CRT, all this garbage. That's cool. But what about higher ed? What about the colleges? What about the universities? You've run one of these. Can we salvage them? Can we rebuild them? Live on air in front of three and a half million people, he said, it's brand newly minted president of the Heritage Foundation. No, we have to burn them to the ground. Now, when he says that, you think, you know, let me think about that. And then what happens? Three years later, the president of the most famous college in the world says, genocide of the Jews, that's a contextual statement and may not be hate-filled. Then he's right. I mean, I got in an argument about this with a fellow conservative who said, well, we've got to save the colleges. I said, you can't save that. I mean, when it's so ingrained that calling for genocide on Harvard campus is something the president thinks is OK, you can't change that unless you change everybody who works at Harvard, because they're all like that. I mean, maybe there's two professors left who aren't woke, but you can't build it with thousands of people who hate America. It's like, let me make an analogy that you're not supposed to say. It's impolitic. My thing is national security and people tell me, well, Israel has to do what it has to do and it has to crush Hamas and then it'll be okay. And they have to do whatever it takes. Civilian casualties, yes, we get it, but they just got to crush Hamas. And I say, You can't crush Hamas. The polls say 70% to 80% of Gazans support what Hamas did on October 7th. When 70% of a population says murdering beautiful young women at a rave in the desert is okay. Unless the population is removed somewhere else, and Egypt built their wall with God. You cannot fix that by killing the people who did October 7th because you'll just find more recruits. You can't fix these colleges. And that's why home-schooling is enormous, why Hillsdale and the like of Grove City, conservative colleges that don't take one cent from the feds. So the feds can't force their CRT and equal rights garbage on them are so thriving. But, my parents escaped communism. And it's the idea that we're in that situation where in every communist nation that had a semblance of resistance, the kids would come home from school and then the parents would put the radio up loud and then deprogram their kids at night. And say, okay, what did that commie teachers tell you about Stalin? Let me tell you what the truth is about the West and capitalism. And to think that we might be in a similar situation without a Berlin Wall, without bipolarity, but where we need to deprogram our kids. That's why I tell people it's cool to work in the White House. Don't get me wrong. As an immigrant, it's pretty cool. It's pretty cool to be president. It's pretty cool to be a senator. But it's mostly irrelevant. I mean, the founding fathers were very clear. Federal government should be irrelevant. It should deal with two things, war and interstate trade. That's it. Alex de Tocqueville understood America better than anyone, of course, because he's a foreigner. And he said, where's the locus of power? Where's real America? It's locally. It's at the county commissioner. It's at the school board. That's why when you want to take back a country, that's where you take it back. Why is George Soros funding local school board races and local prosecutors at the county level? I mean, people like Fani Willis. What the hell is the billionaire who broke the Bank of London doing funding local prosecutor races? Well, because that's how you steal a country. And we kind of just snoozed past it for 40 years as bit by bit, the real locus of power at county, at a municipality level was taken over. I mean, Tip O'Neill famously had this phrase in the 90s, the Democrat speaker, he said, politics is local. And it became this kind of bumper sticker for the Democrats. Oh, oh, all politics is local. And we kind of laughed and said, oh, that's cute. Well, they actually meant it. They understood that you capture a nation not with a presidential election. You capture a nation. When I arrived to Virginia, I moved from Europe 2008. And we put our kids into the local schools. And we looked into the local school district, school board. There were nine members of the school board. Every single one of them was a raving left-wing loony. And here's the important thing. None of them had a child in the public schools of the county. And you go, what? Then why are they running the board? Because it's about controlling my children, right? This is what we have to wake up to.

With everyone talking about potentially banning TikTok, our host Mike Slater takes some time to point out the app's addictive nature before launching into a thorough exploration of the concept of addiction itself. How does it start? How do you stop it? Why is it important to recognize it in ourselves and those around us? Slater has the answers!After that, Salem Radio Network host Dr. Sebastian Gorka stops by to give his expert takes on the latest news stories regarding this country's woke destruction.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Lee Habeeb, who is the Vice President of Content and host, along with six other "storytellers", of the Salem Radio Network's program called "Our American Stories. The program is now five-and-a-half years old, episodes are each two-hours long, they appear five nights per week, and covers stories about American heroes -- well known and ones who are largely unknown, but surely merit public recognition. The title of each program seems to be eye-and-interest catching; for example: "No hands: No problem. Overcoming the Loss of Both My Arms", "The Blue Collars Leader of America's Most Innovative University", "Abolitionist John Brown", a "Washington's Farewell Address: The Story of America", and "Martin Luther: The Man Who Rediscovered God and Changed the World". Mr. Habeeb said that the programs are made for viewers from youngster to adult, and that viewers are increasingly writing in to say that their children are eager fans of the program, which is a great thing indeed given the deceitful rot that poses as U.S. history at all levels of today's educational system and most television programs. One of The Two Mikes listened, with his son, to the episode about Washington's Farewell Address and found it to be excellent.Subscribe to Freedom First Network on Rumble to watch all of our shows LIVE.Indulge in the finest quality with Freedom First Beef – sous vide, freeze-dried, and ready to savor today or in a decade.

On today's podcast, host Mike Slater talks extensively about America's southern border crisis. How did things get so bad with the illegal immigrants down there? What's the proper way to deal with migration and how is it being handled currently? Can even Donald J. Trump fix this mess if he gets back into the White House?Following that, Dr. Sebastian Gorka, Salem Radio Network host, joins the program to talk about why the left is so deathly afraid of the return of "Donald Trump's America".

In this episode of Life Matters, Commissioner Johnston reminiscences on Life Matters beginning in 1987, on its expansion, and the many friends and allies that have brought it to this point 37 years later. Life Matters began on radio station station KCBC the 50,000 Watt (The highest wattage allowed by the FCC ) flamethrower station covering northern California. It was the northern California cornerstone for the Bott Broadcasting Network. Life Matters with Brian Johnston gradually expanded to other Bott affiliates, then to the Wilkins Network, which is a nationwide Christian broadcast string of stations, and eventually was included on many stations of the Salem Radio Network. Life Matters is also broadcast on shortwave radio through Europe, North Africa, and parts of Asia. Brian points out there are other Life Matters radio programs, the most notable a Life Matters program which is broadcast by Australian Broadcasting System, it is not related to Life Matters with BRIAN JOHNSTON.  There are also smaller local shows that might share the name, “Life Matters.” They are usually, as in the case of one, a home and lifestyle program that focuses on home economics and day-to-day life (which is a good theme! It's just not our theme!). Brian dedicates some time to the various sponsors of Life Matters, including Mike Lindell, the Pillow Guy (use promo code: LIFE); Car Easy which is a nationwide non-profit that will take your donated car, improve it and then share the proceeds with our work.

Shownotes and Transcript Ben Bergquam is familiar to the WarRoom posse as he has been RAV's border expert for years now.  His Law & Border show regularly exposes the continual failure of Capitol Hill to deal with this avalanche of illegal aliens.  We welcome him to Hearts of Oak to discuss his experiences.  Where is this never ending stream of illegal immigration coming from?  Why do Congress refuse to even acknowledge the problem, never mind stop the flow?  And when will Americans learn that they cannot get away from the problem by fleeing California and New York?  Once these people are within the borders of America, they are free to go anywhere and do what they like.  It's time for Americans to become so 'pissed off' at this injustice that they demand action.  Ben Bergquam is a well-known Texas-born conservative Christian correspondent. He is the host of “Law & Border “ on RAV-TV News. His experience includes working in the state government and the private sector and engaging in political activism in California and America. He travels the country and Mexico, exposing the massive corruption of the left and the never ending crisis at the border. Ben is out there every single day fighting for values and country. Ben also founded Frontline America, a national organization to restore USA identity: "One Nation Under God!" - exposing the left and mobilizing the Christian conservative remnant. Connect with Ben...

Thanks so much for giving us your time today. (Ben Bergquam) It's great to be with you, sir.  Great to have you, and obviously seeing you many times on War Room. Obviously, you're doing a lot with Real America Voice. Many of your pieces on the border, people can find you @BenBergquam, is your Twitter handle. You're the host of Law & Border on Real America Voice News, founder of Frontline America, Christian conservative, husband and father, all ticks the right boxes. So great to have you. Maybe, Ben, you can touch on your, how did you fall in, I guess, to being a journalist? And I think most of what I saw, you put out a lot of stuff, but a lot is a focus on the border, on that immigration issue. How did you end up kind of being a journalist and covering that specific area? You know, it's an interesting backstory. I didn't plan on it. In college, I was an undergrad kinesiology exercise science major, so I was a fitness major, ended up getting my MBA. Before that, I was in architecture and art, and so a whole bunch of kind of background. I played football and, you know, I was just a sports guy. But in college, I saw the direction. I went to high school and college in California. Parents were missionaries in Africa when when I was a kid, we ended up in California and I saw the direction the state was going. I saw how evil things were getting and I saw nobody standing up to fight back for the most part, you know, even the Republicans in California, they just seemed comfortable losing. And so I, it was about the same time that Facebook Live had come out. And in college, I'd started a conservative values organization. I kind of, I got burned out in politics and then I got into drugs and alcohol for a while, I was actually a crack addict for a while. And God turned my life back around in 2015 and right into the 2016 campaign. And I was full on. And so I just took my phone out and started filming and going up and confronting the left in Sacramento. And mostly at the beginning, it's really always been God, family, country are the three pillars of what I focus on. And wherever they fall into that, those one of those categories. In California, obviously it's godlessness, it's evil, It's the far left is taken over to the point now where we can't even define what a woman is. I mean who would have thought 10 years ago even that that would be a subject we'd be having. And but this was this was one of the issues in California in college though what what I noticed was I'm struggling to even get through college. I'm paying my own way. My parents weren't wealthy and so they they couldn't pay me or pay my way through college and we made just enough money to where I didn't qualify for any of the the freebies that the government gives out in California but all of a sudden I noticed several of my classes had illegal aliens in them that were getting full scholarships, and I thought what the hell is going on here and then what really turned me on to the border and made me passionate about it was I met an angel mom named Agnes Gibney whose son she was a legal immigrant. My wife's a legal immigrant. My wife's family escaped communism from Laos to come here. Agnes Gibney, she escaped communism her family fled after World War two and they ended up first in Brazil and then in in California, her son was murdered by an illegal alien. And I started getting story after story after story of these families whose family members had been murdered by illegal aliens. And this was about the same time that this whole argument conversation about sanctuary cities and sanctuary states was coming up. And so I just couldn't believe it. I thought, how the hell could we be in a state that would protect illegal aliens, people that have no right to be here in the first place, above American citizens, and in some cases, above American citizens who had come here legally to escape communism, socialism, the despots of the world. And so that, it just pissed me off, honestly, I just thought, there's no way, this just can't be happening. So I got heavily involved with the Fight Sanctuary State movement, and then that kind of led me down the path of illegal immigration, was on, had a show on the Salem Radio Network for a year, and it was everything but a heavy focus on immigration. And then about that same time, Real America's Voice News had started. They saw the work I was doing. They came and said, we need a border guy. Are you interested? And that's been about four, four and a half years, five years now, been on with Real America's Voice. So it's really been a progression. God's plan is not necessarily our timing, but it's been a pretty amazing ride as well. So now I do the show Law & Border, travel all over North America, down into South America, we're even over in Europe this summer, showing the connections between the United Nations, the globalists, the Great Reset, everything that's happening in Europe, and the connections between the invasion we have on our southern border in America. So it's all of that. Even the border is not just the border. The border is the fight of freedom, liberty versus communism, socialism, it's the fight against the new world order, the globalist leftist, the you know the great reset, Klaus Schwab, WEF, all of this. And it you know it all ties together, it's all in some ways it's all one. I would love to pick up on missionary family in Africa, God turn your life around, trust me I'll come back to you on a full story on that because to me that's extremely exciting. But onto the border which will stay on all today but that there will be a part two definitely if Ben has the time. I think it's the mass of people I mean here's just a a video just put up just for 15 seconds and it shows the amount of people you'd posted from someone else this was probably maybe two weeks ago. Let me just put just 10 seconds of this up for people to see. Yeah, this is actually a video shot by Alden Cabello. He actually lives in Acuna, Mexico. This is in Eagle Pass, Texas, coming across from Piedras Negas. And these are the lines that you see now. Hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people, thousands per day, just marching on into America. Where do you go because it's, people find it hard to believe the amount of individuals and we in the UK have a much smaller level of immigration with 50,000 coming across illegally on boats and the English Channel from France to UK is our southern border in effect. And that's what we see, that pays a significance on what you have. And how do you actually portray to the public the amount, because it's the amount that makes people think, no, this can't be real, it's just, this is a story you're trying to spin, go away. The scale of it, touch on that. Well, all you have to do is look at the federal government's numbers, and these are conservative numbers, so I'll break them into two. It's the known apprehensions, and we're up around 8 million since Joe Biden took office, and then the unknowns, and they admit to around 1.8 million of what they call the got-aways. Just taking the 8 million, if you take that, if you just took away the go-taways and say, okay, we're going to take the federal government at its own numbers, and we're going to say that 8 million people have come into our country, that is the population of more than 35 states in the United States. That's, you know, so you take an entire state, I'm in the state of Arkansas right now. Our population is under 4 million people, right around 4 million people. That's double our state's population. So, you know, if you compare that in quantity, and again, these are conservative numbers. Now you add in the got-aways, and this is the number that actually really pisses me off. And I'm gonna show you, I actually have a couple little illustrations here. That'll help tell the story. Every time I go down to the border, I look for, I call them souvenirs, but they're really more of evidence. I get IDs from all over the world. I get passports from all over the world. I get little booklets. This is a little Chinese Proverbs booklet that was left there. And you would ask, well, why would anybody dump these IDs? Why would you ever, why? Like, if I lost my passport, I would freak out. I travel all over the world. You know, that's one of your big concerns when you're traveling. Don't lose your passport. They're dumping. They're not losing their passports, they're dumping their passports. And we've asked them, I've actually interviewed people, I was on the Mexico side, and I saw this family from Africa. And they were taking all of their documents, I've actually filmed them doing this. And they were burning them on the shore, they were taking out their IDs, they were taking and trying to burn them before they went across. And we've asked multiple people, why would you do that? And they said, they've actually been coached on this, that they have an easier time coming into America if the government doesn't know who they are. So they can make up any back story they want. They can say they are whoever they want. As long as they don't show up on Interpol or one of our terror watch lists, or they haven't been previously deported or have a criminal record with a country that we share information with, we have zero way of vetting them or verifying. So they can make up any story. And the sad reality is, this is one of the parts that the left doesn't want to talk about. There's many parts that the left doesn't want to talk about. The children are actually used simply as pawns. So if you come across as a single adult male. It used to be you had a harder time getting in. Now, we're just letting everybody in. But it used to be you had a harder time getting in. So what they do is in Mexico and in Central America, they have black markets for children. Families will sell their children. People will steal children. And the men will come across, sometimes the women as well. And they'll bring a child with them. They'll say, this is my daughter. We have no way of verifying that. We let you in as a family. And then they will send those children back. Border Patrol calls it recycling. So they actually recycle these kids. And they'll filter them through. And if you came through with a passport and that child had a birth certificate and they were from two different countries and there was no connection, well, it would be a lot harder to spin that story. But if you come across with nothing and you say, this is my child, this is my son, this is my daughter, this is my wife, we have no way of verifying that. So that's part of it. But the big concern that I have, it's both. I mean, the known 8 million people, we can't afford that. We're in a country that's $33 trillion in debt. We are going more in debt every single day. We're paying off other countries. We're paying for their wars. We're paying for them to secure their borders, but we're going bankrupt. And while we're doing that, we're inviting in millions of more people who are all going to end up on our government dole at some point, whether that's through welfare, the asylum process, they're all paid a monthly stipend to be here if they end up being granted asylum, through our education system, through our healthcare networks. So we are literally slitting our own country's throat. with what's going on, just on the ones we're inviting in, then you take the millions more that are coming through, and again, I'll give you a little illustration of that. My last trip down to Luke, there's some areas right now that are being really heavily hit, and most of it, Texas is really bad, Arizona is really bad, California is as well, but it's not talked about as much. But I was down in Arizona, I was filming an area, the Tohono O'odham Indian Reservation, I was down there showing these massive groups, 1,500 people coming across at a time. And just to put that in perspective, imagine you're out in the middle of nowhere, you're three hours from civilization, you're out in the desert, we call it no man's land, and all of a sudden, 1,500 people show up. I mean, it's like they're showing up for a football game. You know, they're gonna just march on in. They've got some of the bags of luggage. You know, they've travelled around the world to get here. And now they're marching through the desert, walking up to you saying, let us in, or just demanding that they be let in. That's happening day after day after day. And that's one point, one point on a 2,000 mile long border. And it's happening at hundreds of points along our southern border. Well, while that's happening, while you have these people that are turning themselves in that want to get caught, that are gaming the system, because the United Nations and Catholic charities and Lutheran social services and Jewish family services, all of these communist NGOs that are getting paid off to do this are inviting them in. A mile up the road, I went to a little place called Sasabe, Arizona. They're turning themselves in there as well. I go a mile past where they're turning themselves in, and I catch a group of cartel members that are running drugs across our border. Literally, I drive up. I'm the only one there. There's no border patrol because border patrol is all being used on processing these fake asylum seekers. And I look across the wall. I'm 20 feet away from the wall. And I see this backpack, so I back up to it, jump out of the car. I'm armed because we're dealing with cartels. They walk around with AK-47s on the Mexico side and on the US side. And so I look down, all of a sudden I'm like, oh man, this is bad. I've got seven guys all in full camouflage about to cross over. They'd actually already been in the US side. They ran back across when I backed up to them. And I start filming. And thank God I was filming because I actually heard in the camera, the coyote, the cartel coyote say, let's go, let's go, let's go back. He's filming in Spanish, he says this. Well, while they ran away, one of the guys actually dropped their hat. So this is an official cartel camouflage hat that was dropped on our Southern border simply because I was there. But as soon as I left, guaranteed that group with their drugs and their full backpacks came across and there was no border patrol for hundreds of miles to stop them. And that's the state of our border right now. We are spending all of our border patrol resources, the vast majority of it on processing fake asylum seekers and the areas in between are completely wide open for drug smugglers, for sex traffickers, and for potential terrorists. So we are, we are destroying our country as we speak by the very people that have sworn an oath to protect our country. I mean it, so you know, where people say well it couldn't be that bad, imagine the worst you can think it could be and it's worse. Can I ask you because in the UK we talk about immigration affecting services, so schools and hospitals and transport. But in the US, when you look at the drugs problem coming across the border, the fentanyl problem you have in the US, and it seems to be that, as much as I would love to say, well this is the Democrats' fault, actually it seems to be that no one wants to deal with this. Surely a drugs problem would make people wake up, especially with many of the politicians having families, having children. How does that not hit home and that to be a reason to shut the border? Yeah, it's a great question. We had over 100,000 young people die of fentanyl overdoses last year. It's the number one killer for people 18 to 45 in America. It is a weapon of mass destruction. The precursors to fentanyl were originally created in China. Most of them still come from China. They're shipped to the cartels in Mexico. And then the Mexican terrorist drug cartels smuggled them across our southern border to kill American citizens. There's no question about it. If we considered this, if this was the Taliban, that had killed 100,000 Americans, we went to war for 20 years over a fraction of that. 3000 people dying on 9-11, we spent 20 years in the Middle East, supposedly fighting terrorists. We have 100,000 plus people die every single year and both sides seem to not care at all. I mean, we're having this idiotic discussion in Washington DC right now about the federal government shutting down while our country is bleeding out. We don't even, as you mentioned, the Democrats to me, I mean, in some ways they're terrible, they're evil, they're inviting this, but some ways they're not as bad. At least they're stabbing me in the front. It's the people that claim to be on my side, the people that claim to care about these issues that end up stabbing you in the back. You look at guys like Kevin McCarthy who was in there as speaker, did absolutely nothing to stop this. We look at most politicians in America will talk about issues, but they do absolutely nothing. And I think the message should be very simple. Shut the government down until we can shut this invasion on our southern border down. And if you don't have the balls to do that, then get out of Congress. We need that. And again, as you mentioned, it's been on both sides. Historically, if we back up just a little bit. Up until President Trump, you had Democrats and Republicans. They both loved illegal immigration. Republicans loved it for the cheap labour. The chambers of commerce love cheap labour. They love people working under the table because it makes more money for them. You also had the Democrats that love it because they love holding people under their thumb. They love having easy votes. And ultimately, it's a win for slavery. I mean, you talk about, you know, we ended slavery in the United States. We ended in UK over a hundred years ago, but there are more slaves today in America than there ever have been because of what we have going on our southern border. So all of that. Then President Trump came in and said, wait a second, this isn't good. This isn't good for America. This isn't good for the people that this is happening to. This isn't good for the countries that they're leaving. And ultimately, if this continues, the world will be affected by this. This will be bad for everyone because if America falls, the world falls. And so President Trump was the first one that came in and said, we're actually going to do something to stop this. And he did. We saw the lowest numbers. When President Trump took office, they were some of the highest numbers we'd seen. When President Trump left office when the election was stolen, I don't know if I can say that on your show, but I absolutely believe it. Oh, you can. We're not on YouTube. Say it's stolen. 100%.  It was. It was 100% stolen. The Democrats have perfected election fraud. When that happened, we had some of the lowest numbers we'd seen on the southern border. And it was simply because President Trump prioritized it and said, you will not break into our country, you will not get freebies. And the one big policy that he put into place was the remain in Mexico policy that said, if you're coming here requesting asylum, you're gonna wait on the Mexico side of the border until your case is adjudicated. And then we will let you in if you qualify. Well, the 95% of the people that are coming that are claiming asylum now, don't qualify for asylum. They got the message, we're not gonna get in. So they stayed home. Then you have Joe Biden come in and say, everybody's welcome, come on in, and now the floodgates are open. And you're right. So Democrats have invited this, but the Republicans have done almost nothing to stop it. And that's, you know, the Democrats need to be held. They need to be arrested and charged with treason. Joe Biden, Secretary Marcos, everybody who's inviting this, the NGOs like Catholic Charities need to be defunded immediately. The House has the control over the purse strings. They could do that today. And the United Nations needs to be defunded. And ultimately, when we take back control in 2024, which I pray and I believe we will, we need investigations into every single politician that has supported open borders to find out how many of them are bought off by the cartels. That's what we need in America, but right now we have none of that. Can I ask about the people coming over? I mean you put up a tweet, immigrants from 23 Islamic countries in Europe. It's actually the clash between people coming from Islamic countries and that cultural clash between the traditional Christian freedoms that we've had in Europe and then you come with a push on Islam and that's the almighty clash that we're having here. You haven't got it to quite that level but where is the push coming from? Obviously everyone, you can't blame people in theory if it's economic migrants wanting to be in a richer country. Everyone wants to be richer, everyone wants to have a better life, that's fair enough. But you don't necessarily have that right to just cross over and pick a nation. And where, where is the people groups coming from? And how is that the clash between US culture? Well, that's the rub in America. It's not one it's we're getting, it's the death by a million cuts. So you have the people coming across that simply want a job and are taking it. You know, it's ironic too. We had four years with president Trump, some of the best job numbers for almost every single demographic, lowest unemployment for black, lowest unemployment for Hispanic, lowest unemployment for women until the China virus, until China unleashed COVID on the world. And then the election theft. Now you have some of the worst job numbers for the black community. Even the Hispanic community in America, the legal Hispanic community in America is being crushed by this. So you have the part of it that are just the economic migrants that are coming over for jobs. And I wish they were all just, I mean, honestly, I wish they were coming for jobs. But now you have this other side of it where you have illegal aliens that have been taught, you have generations now that have been taught that you can game the welfare system. You don't even have to work. And so now you have millions that are coming across simply to game the welfare system and they get it and they take it out of our kids' pockets as we continue to go further and further into debt. They take it from our kids' education. They take it from our healthcare system. Coming from California, used to live there, escaped a couple of years ago. And we had in our local area in the Central Valley, we've had three hospitals shut down in the last five years because of illegal aliens. They come in, they use the services, they don't pay the bills, and then the hospitals end up going bankrupt. And that's an epidemic happening across America. But then you have, as you guys see, and in some ways, it's better, it's worse for Europe, what's going on. By the way, if you haven't read a book, it's called The Sword in the Scimitar by Raymond Ibrahim. It's the thousand years of the war on Islam and Christendom. It is a extremely good book to read, to learn the history behind this from Mohammed up to until the Spain kicked the Moors out for good. You know, there was history to that about the same time as Christopher Columbus. This isn't new for Europe. You know, there's been a war. Muslims have been attacking Europe, trying to take over Europe for hundreds of years ever since Muhammad really, and after his death. Well, Spain actually got to the point right around 1400, end of 1400, where they said no more. They tried, they tried, they tried, and they said no more. And they ended up kicking the Moors all out of Spain, back to Northern Africa. Well, now you have these woke leftists saying, come on in guys, come on in. We've got, no, it's all compassion. We are, you know, and you have these, you have these brain dead, supposedly religious organizations that are saying, well, we want to be compassionate. We don't want to be mean people. So these, you know, we're going to look at people through the best lens possible. We're going to say, they just want a better life. We're going to invite them in. And not knowing that you're committing national suicide. And that's happening all across Europe. As I mentioned, I was in Sweden, I was in Europe this past summer. I started in Sweden, then went down through Denmark, into France. Actually, you mentioned the English Channel. I wish the Rio Grande River was as wide as the English Channel. We'd have a lot more control of it. But in Calais, Oscar Blue, one of my co-workers or compadres on Real America's Voice News, they were down there, and they were showing these houses, derelict houses with these Africans. It's interesting because you have the Christian Africans escaping the Muslims, leaving Africa, and then you have right behind them, the jihadists that are blending in and coming right up with them. And so that's what's happening. So you have Europe that has that, they have that, but in some ways it's better because you can say, okay, this is bad, we can isolate the enemy and we can say, nope, we're not gonna allow this anymore. If you can take back control from the woke, brain dead leftists. In America, now we have those other issues. We have the welfare state being overrun. We have the job takers coming in and then you have the jihadist as well being invited up by Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib. And AOC who same way they just want the destruction of our country. So you have we have it on from all fronts. Takes a little bit longer to get here, a little bit harder for somebody to leave the Middle East to come to the United States, a little bit easier to go up into Europe. But in the end, it's the same enemy. So all of that's happening. But the tip of the spear on all of that, whether it's the jihadists coming up to Europe or the jihadists coming up through America, or the job killers or job takers or welfare takers coming up through both sides, it's the United Nations, it's the leftist, it's the World Economic Forum, it's this Klaus Schwab global reset, redistribution of wealth that is driving all of this and all of these fake godless communist non-governmental organizations, charities, that are at the front edge of this that are getting paid off by every government in the world to help enable the invasion of the West. That's what's happening. Can I just pick up on California just for our last five minutes or so because I know you're non-stop media so I do appreciate your time, Ben. But you touched on California. Obviously we've seen the crazy debate between Ron DeSantis and Gavin Newsom, legitimising Gavin Newsom and obviously many are pushing for him to run because Biden doesn't know what time the day it is, never mind that he's president. But let me just play this clip of you showing the tent cities, which I saw actually in LA April time last year, for the first time ever, was on the West Coast and the last time I ever want to be there. Let me just play this and just talk us through kind of what we're seeing and what you've seen in California, which obviously is the state you know well. Yeah, this is a tent city on the American River in Sacramento, California, and the capital of Sacramento. This was actually the day before Gavin Newsom did that pathetic debate with Ron DeSantis. He leaves California. This was actually two weeks after we had Xi Jinping come to town to San Francisco, and they cleaned up the streets of San Francisco. And right now, they've spent billions of dollars in California. They just last year spent hundreds of millions of dollars to supposedly clean up the streets. And if you go to downtown Sacramento, the streets are clean. But if you go to any of the exterior areas, you go to any of the the peripheral neighbourhoods, the suburbs of Sacramento. This is what it looks like. It is absolute filth. It's hell on earth. It's a cesspool, it's drugs, it's crime. And really it's just, it's human misery. I actually interviewed several of the people down there and they don't wanna be there. You know, some of them do. Some of them are addicts that just don't wanna be held accountable. Some of them are criminals. But it's, you know, a lot of these people simply can't afford to live in California anymore because of the economic policies by the left. We have some of the highest cost of living in the country. I say that as a guy who lives in Arkansas now who has gas for under $2 and 50 cents a gallon. In California, when I left there, it was $6 a gallon. In San Francisco, the median single bedroom apartment is $3,500 a month. So you look at, and Sacramento is not much below that. You look at LA is the same. So you have this disparity between the extremely rich who look up, you know, like Gavin Newsom and lives in his multi-million dollar mansion and says, well, it's not so bad. While he's destroying the energy sector, he's destroying every industry that he doesn't like, he's destroying agriculture in the Central Valley, which is, you know, California produces the majority of some staple food products that the world eats, and in particular, the United States eats. They're destroying that at the altar of climate change and radical environmentalism, and they're destroying lives along the way. So the bottom line is very simple. If you like misery, if you like poverty, if you like homelessness, drug addiction, if you like BLM thugs being able of rob at will and not being penalized by leftist DAs, Soros backed DAs, then keep voting for Democrats. But if you're sick of living that way, then you can't vote for these guys. They're not in it for your best interest. They may say all the right things, but they lie. Gavin Newsom is one of the worst liars I know. He's one of the slickest guys I know, but he's an absolute disgusting liar. And it's time that we fire every single person like that. And we start saying, what's in the best interest for Americans. What's in the best interest for my citizens, if you're in the UK, It should be what's in the best interest for the citizens of the UK and every country should take that model and then take it all the way down to your local level to your local community and say if we come from that perspective. Like I'm not a mean-hearted person. I'm a Christian. I give to my church. I give to the needy, in fact I gave, I interviewed one lady there and I gave to her, and I usually don't, I usually don't give to homeless people because usually you're just feeding an addiction. But I did, and I judge it at one person at a time. But the last thing we need to do is keep pumping money into the federal government that then pumps it out to their friendlies that basically are funded by the continuation of homelessness, or they are funded by the continuation of the invasion on our southern border. We have entire industries now based around the destruction of America that we are paying for, the American citizens are paying for. And if you're sick of it, like I'm sick of it, We have to get these people out of office ultimately. I think we have to prosecute the ones that are traitors to our country and take back this country and stop saying we're gonna compromise, stop apologizing for being right and say, you know, if these ideas are better, we're gonna win in the arena of ideas. We're not going to compromise. We're going to defeat the enemy and again come from the perspective. That's why I support President Trump so much. He came from the perspective of winning not compromising, now I didn't agree with him on everything. I think you know, you look now back at the vaccines and all of that I think we need to you know, there's some some things he needs to change. I think one thing he needs to change is who he puts around himself. But ultimately, President Trump was the best thing for America and really for the world. And I pray that he wins in 2024 and really that ultimately will decide the trajectory of not just America, but the rest of the world. If they steal it again in 2024. I have a hard time seeing how we save not just America, but the rest of the planet as well. Ben, thanks for coming.

Does that mean Israelis only behead the same number of babies or rape of woman? What are they talking about? Is Antisemitism the thought process?  President Donald Trump has said Conservative Christians care more about Israel than Americans Jews do. Is that why the left supports Hamas? Why they run from supporting Israel? Is it because they can't bring themselves to be on the same side of conservative, so they run from it? New York City Mayor Eric Adams gave a speech over the weekend. He was clear on his supportive of Israel. New York City has one of the largest communities in the world outside of Israel.

The race for Speaker of the House underscored the 2022 midterm narrative: the Republican Party is increasingly divided, and unable to consolidate power long enough to effect positive change. Now Speaker Kevin McCarthy was held hostage by a powerful “Knucklehead Caucus” (our guest's moniker for the Never Kevinites) until its leader Matt Gaetz simply “ran out of things to ask for.” Some of these same dissenters have now been promoted to top committees in the House, the results of McCarthy's Faustian pact to claim the speakership. Who are the Knuckleheads? Are they all knuckleheads? And how did this isolationist group of extremist budget hawks group climb atop the GOP pile? Among the reasons -- lack of strong leadership in the party, a lack of national security leadership in the White House, an end to substantive national debate in favor of social media hot takes, and more. And all of it is worrisome for the trajectory of the GOP, and America, going forward.Hugh Hewitt is a nationally syndicated radio talk show host with the Salem Radio Network.
