WAR ROOM LIVE [2 of 3] Thursday 9/10/26 • TRUMPS MIDTERM SHOW, News, Reports & Analysis • Alex Jones Network

0:00If you are receiving this transmission, you are in the resistance. This is the early phases or the beginning of, I would say World War III, I get maybe more war IV, but this is the beginning of a World War. I mean, when you just look at how close these two fronts are, you're talking about Europe, we're talking about the Middle East, and then we're talking about basically everyone who's standing kind of against the American dominance. And again, China is who we're supposed to be worried about. I think most people agree that we should be worried about China, yet every move that we're taking from the time that we started supporting the Ukrainians and kicking Russia off the Swift system to start the war in Iran with the Straits of Hormuz, the biggest benefactor has been China. Since 2022, you, in Europe, European taxpayers, because that's where the money comes from. Remember that. It doesn't get created, it doesn't come out of nowhere. It comes from the taxpayer.

1:00That's you. Since 2022, Ukraine has been given 220 billion euros. Think about that. That's just the money that's been given to Ukraine. Forget about the massive impact, the billions in impact that it's had on economies. Forget about the trade between Ukraine and Russia. All the damage that's been done to the European Union, for example, the destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines, the blowing up of the biggest energy infrastructure project in history of European Union, destroyed, blown up. European imports from China have increased by 45 percent over the past five years, while our exports to China are declining. Our trade deficit with China now stands at nearly one billion euros per day, and it has risen another 10 percent since the beginning of this year. The CY Americans have a problem sending billions of our tax dollars to Ukraine.

2:03That's Arena Moudra, who was until last week the deputy head of Zelensky's own presidential office, you know, being walked out in handcuffs on money laundering charges. We just had to move our fleet away from the Pacific, which is actually our border. Is it the first time pre-World War II? We have no aircraft carriers over there. 13 percent of the Navy's fleet is now in the Caribbean, according to IEJ media, including a buildup of 10,000 Marines and sailors, a dozen warships, a nuclear-powered fast-attacked submarine, a special operations mothership with drone capabilities, three guided missile destroyers, and the USS Iwo Jima, with an amphibious ready group on board. The USS Lake Erie, a guided missile cruiser with 32 Tomahawk missiles, was pulled from the Pacific. It is now focusing on Venezuela, where the U.S. sent three B-52s escorted by stealth F-35s on a show of force mission. And the Russians also realize that we are caught right now in this, you know, quagmire in the Middle East.

3:03We're having to move strategic assets away from other theaters, very important ones like the Pacific to cover our bases in the Middle East. And so the Russians right now realize that our back is against the wall. We are running low on weapon systems, obviously. We got into the MOU, we got out of the MOU, we're stalled. So right now is a time where Russia is having their back put against the wall because of what Ukraine is doing with our assistance. And I'm not, you know, justifying or covering for Putin, but I don't think Americans understand Russian politics enough to know that Putin actually is relatively moderate within Russia. There are people that are criticizing him in his military and in his political establishment that are saying that this war in Ukraine has gone for too long. Why aren't we being more serious? Why aren't we pushing forward? Why aren't we striking back? So I don't think the American people realize how close we are right now to a war that could, you know, change history, whether it goes nuclear or whether it just expands and Russia actually does start hitting some targets deeper into Ukraine or even some of our NATO partners.

4:03And then what happens after that, then we're going to have to respond. The first of September, the day when World War II began, we need to make sure that there are no provocations globally that will instigate new global conflicts. I'm sure that our world will help us achieve that. These countries are allegedly trying to settle the conflict and are trying to get their place at the negotiation table. We have been underscoring many times that any foreign contingents that are preventing the two-ribble peace are unacceptable and they will become legitimate targets. And their responsibility will be with those who has made the decision to further escalate the conflict. We've heard Putin say this multiple times that, you know, the President of the United States actually doesn't matter. It's the men in the dark suits who do matter. And so the Russians are very aware that we run NATO and so everything that's being done to them by the Ukrainians with NATO weaponry, NATO targeting.

5:07Welcome back, folks. This is the war room. I'm here with Sarahson Smith. We're talking about the MAGA convention last night, the Republican midterm convention. Donald Trump is spending this to be the best thing ever that ever happened and everybody loved it. Of course, he's responding to the fact that there were a lot of empty seats in the stadium. And this whole thing just gives me such a such a depressed attitude. I mean, honestly, I just think back to some of the rallies we went to, you know, ahead of, well, even just like during Trump's first term, he would hold rallies and the energy was insane and the crowds were unbelievable. And it was just, it's just like remembering back over the 10 years, not just of the enthusiasm

6:09and the energy that swirled around Trump. But then in addition to that or sort of like, I don't know, countervailing that you have the attacks that people suffered and were willing to suffer and understood that they would suffer and did it anyway. And for just all of that, like it's just, you just think about the squandering what his, this opportunity 10 years of this. And we basically have nothing to show for it. We're worse off than we were in 2016, even when it comes to Donald Trump's primary pillar, his ultimate stance of build the wall and deport the illegal immigrants. We are significantly worse off by, I mean, by tens of millions than we were in 2016. So I'm not just, I'm not sitting here trying to, you know, downplay something that succeeded.

7:12I'm just in awe. I'm shocked at what a outrageous failure the Trump administration has turned out to be. And there are absolutely no signs of it turning around in any way. So what Trump said about the convention, the Republican midterm convention last night in Dallas was a major sold out hit far bigger, better and more important than anyone thought possible. It was really something streaming all over the place and really big numbers, despite going up against the NFL. The overall numbers beat the NFL, the arena, which was really nice beat its own attendance records. The place was packed. There were thousands of people outside who couldn't get in screens were provided. I guess people love Trump politics. I'll be there again tonight close out the show. Exciting stuff make America great again. And I obviously just pathetic coping is what we call coping at a presidential level.

8:15And we go to a dot cam here. You can see just few an incomplete crowd at the first ever Republican rally convention. With you just see rows and rows and rows of empty seats. And even, you know, during the speeches when it should be a packed house as Alex Jones notes more concerning is the number of empty seats in the second and third level of Trump's convention. They're almost completely empty. Trump's powers to rally the American people are a shadow of their former strength. They've got this entire top row of seats, thousands of seats unfilled, even though they were giving away free tickets to this event to anybody who could make it. Meanwhile, the left is apparently gathering in protest outside of the event hall and there. You know, dressed as if they're going to war and the police are being deployed to fight them back. Nick Sortor is reporting on it posting videos. Dallas riot police are rolling in heavy to take on leftist rioters who are blocking roads outside the RNC.

9:15These losers are about to learn the hard way this BS will not be tolerated in Texas. I have the feeling it's going to be tolerated. I have the feeling these people are going to block roads and are going to assault Trump supporters. Not feeling none of them are going to go to jail. None of them are going to be arrested. I'm feeling there's not going to be a giant cavalry charge, you know, forcing them back. There are some of the guys dressed in military fatigues, of course. Texas is an open carry state. You often see leftist carrying guns, these types of events. And you just, I mean, I got to be honest, there's a lot of people. There's a lot of people in Dallas coming out to protest this sort of meaningless symbolic midterm convention. Obviously, it's something like the Black Lives Matter riots, but it's pretty insane.

10:19Pretty insane that our country is still just conquered by these people. And they still just act like they're in charge. And for instance, purposes, they are. And there are there are scenes of conflict taking place where, you know, the left wing is attacking right wingers. Nothing's being done about it. So you know, it's just at a certain point, you just need to, we just need to understand fully, we really need to comprehend the like what Trump represented was never real. Never actually happened yet. Grindr crashes in Dallas after huge surge in activity at the Republican convention. Not a surprise. There's a fall on standoff between Dallas police and leftist riders taking over the streets outside the R&C. DPD is completely blocked their march. Start rounding them up, Nick Sortor says, they're not going to be rounded up because what

11:20they're doing right now is a peaceful protest, which is legal. And so it's going to be allowed. The problem is that these very same people almost certainly participated two years ago in the nationwide activist trend of burning Tesla dealerships to the ground. You know, if you don't go after them for the actual crimes they commit, you can't go after them for peacefully protesting. They wouldn't be there to peacefully protest if they were in jail for the terroristic activities. They almost certainly were involved in at some point or another. If we would actually go after these people in a lawful and legal and effective way, we wouldn't have to worry about the police rounding them up for peacefully protesting. And I don't know the last time. I can't think the last time I actually saw like a sizable right wing protest in America.

12:21Must've been January 6th, right? And I was basically then to that for us. The left still gets to march around as much as they want and say whatever they want and attack wherever they want, as they've been allowed to since 2016. So at a certain point, we just got to recognize that nobody is coming to save us. At all. Democrats play up Trump investigations, Epstein files during GOP convention in Dallas. The counter messaging includes speaking to Texas voters about affordability issues and democratic efforts to regain control of the House. Yeah, and basically all the leftists understand how to manipulate people and are just straight up rejecting everything they believed up until the current race began. And people are going to fall for it because they know how to sound reasonable. On the left, I mean, it is kind of shocking how polar opposite the left and the right

13:27are in this country in terms of the left wing moderates its language during an election. And then governs like an extremist. The Republicans are the exact opposite. They come out pounding their chest and making insane promises and swearing that they'll do everything their voters want to get into office. They do absolutely nothing. Meanwhile, the left goes out and says, no, we don't believe in transgender surgery for kids and we don't even want trans people in sports. You know, we don't want any of that stuff. And then they get into office and they govern like chairman, frickin' Mao. Can we just have like, can we just have some honesty? We have some up frontness one way or the other or could the Republicans take just some modicum of the Democrat strategy and turn it to the correct viewpoints and the correct policies and the right decisions? Again, the the the the freshering part that is just constantly reasserted is the fact

14:31that we could do any thing that we want. The Republican Party, when they have the power, they could do it because they do do it when it's not for the benefit of the American people. It's a lot less popular to have the Iran War kick off than it would be to do deportations, but for some reason deportations have to grind to a halt because of the outrage. The Iran War continues unabated and now we're being told it will continue until Trump is out of office. Talking about going to 2029 with the Iran War. So they wanted to deport everybody they could. It would not be hard. They just don't want to. Let's go to clip 18 here. This is Donald Trump. This is the big headline from yesterday that's causing a bunch of strife and dissension within the Republican ranks, but I mean, you know, I guess we can take solace in the

15:33fact that it was probably never going to happen. Even if he promises it, it's probably just never going to happen anyway. So you know, we don't have the money for it. Where the money even come from. And this is all just retarded. Let's go to clip number 18. Here's President Trump saying that we're going to bribe everybody to vote for us. Great. Great. I love living in a democracy. Let's watch. If the Republicans win, if you win, we might not win. The reason the Democrats can't do that is because they don't do tariffs. They don't take in money. Well, they know it's poverty and how to ruin our country, but we're making a fortune. So if the Republicans win, you win with us and you get $5,000, it will be called the Trump dividend. We'll call it the Trump dividend. Congratulations. So we didn't get the Doge dividend. We didn't get the tariff dividend, but we'll get the Trump dividend. I'm sure it may have cost us half a trillion dollars to do the stimulus checks during

16:36COVID. Those are only 1200. So this would be more than double that. So we're looking at like a trillion dollar outlay here. And I guess everybody will get it, not just Trump supporters. So that's kind of cool. You either vote for a Democrat, neither the Democrat wins, and you're going to get the welfare and subsidies that they promise you. The Republicans win and you get $5,000 anyway. So it's not even really incentive to vote for Trump. It's just an extra bonus for his enemies if he wins, which is great. It's wonderful. It's just, I mean, the pathetic, the desperation, the pathetic, small attempt at just a straight up cash bribe for votes. It's kind of just humiliating. I mean, to me, it's just kind of humiliating. It's really an admission of failure. You should not have to bribe the American people with $5,000. You should have achieved things, and then people would give you their vote for free.

17:40You could have actually saved Americans $5,000 by not going to war with Iran and causing inflation to continue to skyrocket and cause us to pay $20, $30, $40 or more every time we go to fill our gas tanks. You know, you could have just saved us $5,000 by not committing our country to an utterly asinine and ridiculous war in the Middle East for the sake of Israel. You wouldn't have to bribe anybody. You could expel all of the migrants and then wages might rise. You could expel all the migrants and then housing might become cheaper. You could actually just do what you're supposed to do. And then none of this would be an issue. You could have let Doge continue to run and not only disempower, disenfranchise and bankrupt the leftist activist networks that are driving the push to socialism, but you could have actually diverted that money into the coffers of true American patriot organizations

18:44and actually use the Democrat strategy effectively, not just as a blatant and in your face bribe for $5,000. And I really don't know anybody who's in favor of this. I've been looking around. I don't see anybody in favor of it. And the messaging obviously is ridiculous. Don't vote for the left. They want socialism and communism vote for us and the government will give you free money. Trump's $5,000 pledge and its bond market revolt show. It's a voter bribe costing every American $8,000. What do you think, Alex? Oh, I always love this. When you come in. Now, the truth is, we're in this little bit studio and I forgot my electrolyte drink. So I can't use laughing. We're sort of walking all over each other around here. But hey, big announcements soon. Now, we're going to do it next week with Ask Me Not Dover Two weeks. Am I hyping things up? The big announcements are big. They're pretty big.

19:45I mean, I don't know what they are either. So... Well, you already know. Well, I'm excited to find out. It's bigger than the court victory. And you know one of the announcements. Yeah. And that's pretty big. That's pretty big. You're going to plant it down. Okay, it's not big. We got to build it up. No, no. I mean, is it not big? You don't think that's a big deal. I think it's a big deal. I think we need to make it a big deal. Yeah, people take stuff for so granted, you know? Yeah. I didn't mean interrupt you. I was just trying to get my legs right. You were trying to sneak in. All right. I thought maybe you had something to say about the $5,000. I just... The first thing that comes out of Trump now, I'm just like, I just got to roll my eyes. That's a very cool knife. Yeah, but the look... We need to sell this knife. I know. It's like the coolest thing ever. Really good still at us are like 400 bucks. He legalized them six years ago, actually. $400. So I finally found a company. We can get him for like $30 and so on for like 50. He still make money. So I'm trying to make the deal. Cause this actually a high quality knife. I finally found a cheap still at us quality. It's a really nice. Yeah.

20:46Yeah. I mean, all of our knives are nice, but this one... Well, you got to defend yourself. We don't want stuff as too expensive. Cause we have to buy a $200. We're trying to make some money right in the store for 300. So I finally found some inexpensive knives and their quality. But the steel test that I looked at backspirts, this looks like to be a game changer. Well, if the Republicans win, after they'll have an extra $5,000 to spend. Yeah. By the way, I didn't come in right now. I wasn't actually... I was watching earlier. You were just trying to sneak in. On the year at Rogers, I was trying to get my drink. And I guess you're so used to being a rubbed thing. I thought that was what I was saying. But we had a whole thing of these downstairs. It's my stole by a little extra like drink. So we're going to find out who that is. But what's the one last one that... I think Aaron Rogers, I did watch that part of the show. He perfectly crystallized everything that's happening. Yeah. He's a great guy, a big fan of the show. We were fanning him. We've not got him on the show yet. I never even tried to get his number or try to get him on. But I was here. He always says nice things on the road and about us. Everything. We want Aaron Rogers. We want you on. Aaron Rogers. Aaron Rogers. Reach out.

21:47No, but you're right. People probably won't even care if we got him full wars back. They probably wouldn't even... It's like, you know, we've been in this so long. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. No, they forget. I mean, they forget what we've been through. They probably say, oh, it's staged. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, naturally. Yeah, obviously. You've been here for nine years. That ain't staged. Literally nothing is staged. And it's crazier than we even let on. I'm just saying. I'm going to get an electrolyte drink and it turns into a whole segment. Yeah, that's all. Well, no, here's my deal. And here's the deal. Harrison, you know I've never told you what to say or do. I send you clips and say, hey, this is big. You send me clips, right? That's true. And when I... It's a weird thing when I actually ask for something, I don't get it. Like two front war two point out or eight front war two point out. I'm working on it. So easy. Maybe the other one in one day won't do it because I asked for it. So the truth is, people do the opposite. Dude, I don't want eight front war two point out, okay? You are ordered not to have that out my next week. Hey, look, the first one says successful. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. You're overdoing it because you have so much evidence. Make that part three.

22:48This is that's true. So the truth is, I get... Not thing I want. I can control these people. I think Harrison has credibility. I like him overall. My problem is I go only 90% is real than I do worse than he is. So it's like, I get mad. Because at the same time, there are other issues that Israel so outrageous until you own purpose. Yes. You know they bait her by like a red... Yeah, of course. Of course, yeah, yeah. That's why this manga... manga-tard thing is such an important video. Because they perfectly encapsulate, no, there's a bigger game here. Yeah. And I want to just get myself included because Israel pisses me off to no end with all their law fair and the rest of it. Yeah, we know it's you. At a certain point, you've got to be Christ like in that... There's a time to live, a time to die, a time to fight, a time to reap a time of so. You got to be more sophisticated as long as I'm saying. Yeah. Well, that's the thing is, even if you don't want to talk about it, everything else we talk about comes back to that. So you talk about the Iran War, you're going to be talking about Israel. We're talking about Charlie Kirk. You got to talk about Israel. It's like it's constantly in our...

23:50In our kin. I see all these guys and I'm not a warfare expert, I actually have a wide spectrum of expert, a lot of that. Actually, I'm an expert. The point is, is that I think of the official schools of it. Everybody wants a knife that's one-sided for fighting or defense. Rule 101. You want double-edged dagger, razor sharp for insert to insert to get into the organs if you've got to defend yourself. So number one, do you have a weapon that can be instantly deployed? Number two, is it double-edged? Is it thin? Is it ready to go in so that with limited force you get in? We're also slashing because as someone's coming at you, these stupid knife-fighters, you're like this. No, real knife-fighting is. So I'm trying to get you to slash because you've got full power. Many fingers coming at you, things cut off. So see, this is very cool knife. Finally. We've got to get one more on the screen. And I'll tell the audience that it's actually high quality. We'll still trying to get that for you folks. Okay, we're working on it.

24:52This son of the bitch will give you like $10. It's aluminum. It's real stainless steel. And I've tested it out, stabbing stuff. I finally found a place. Where it's by the time we got an order, $10,000, it'll shut down or something. But we finally, this is the holy grail right here. Because they sell knives like this at Cabellas for $400 or another brand. It's a really nice knife. It's bad, no, that. Yeah, I was picking it up. You actually plan around that you can feel. I mean, that's a serious. This is good. Don't you love them trying to sell a product we don't have yet? I know, I know. What are we doing? This is research and development here. We've got real knives. We sell real knives too. And I use them. Alex Jones threatens to cut off finger. And they'll do it with one of the fine knives you get. I don't know where to shot. It's like a Japanese when they're apologizing. Come on over and shot. Come on, you got to find it. You got to find it. If I could cut my finger off to defeat the glove, you? Yeah, absolutely.

25:53You got the samurai swords in your walls. Yeah. Tell them that looks something like that. Can't Harry carry. Anyways, the, yeah, Sepikot. Anyways, the point is, would you do? Yeah, look at that. Who would have said sharp knives? America. Bloodletting. I'm not a, I'm not a masochist. I'm not into silver. I'm saying, oh, look at that. And then the lord power. All right, I'm getting out of here. Harry's gonna stop drag him in there. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. You're trying to sneak in, sneak in with his drink. I called him out. You just, you just let that blade sit right there with his, just try the action for some. I know, no, this thing is amazing. I was, I looked at hundreds of salitos and they legalized them. That damn thing is like, I think we can get it for like $9 or like $10,000. Below that, it's like $15. Kind of about one is like 20. We can sell that for like $19.95 or 30 bucks or whatever, make a good profit. Everybody's gonna want this because this is finally, look at that. No, it's very cool. I've stabbed deep, I've stabbed, grouel dummies, bunch of stuff with this one.

26:54And I've, and I've like, hit it up against walls. It's done bright. Other ones I got there cheap, they break. This is actually a company. But it does, they'll be around anyone. All right, well, until then folks, you can go to thealexjohnstore.com for all your knife needs. There are a few good knives in there. There's some really good knives, yeah. There's some really, really awesome. I know the way to go. It's not a switch plate, say that. You know, last week, I flew back from a lion to have one of these and they called me and they said, this is illegal. They said, go, like, see, sure, they pass the federal law. Now the good thing Trump did, he basically decriminalized suppressors and he's gonna get and brass levels are legal. Who cares, criminals, grab, anyways? Skull pranks, we'll have them too. Skalatos, Swiss blades are all legal. All right, well, we got, we got to go to commercial break and you gotta make your eggs sit here. But you can go to knives or back. But look at these knives. Look at these incredible knives. They are awesome. I can't even tell me the knives are back here. I carry them. I carry around one of these knives every single day, folks. You can't do thealexjohnstore.com.

27:56Try to get this train back on the rails here. I'm gonna be opening up the phone lines for your calls in the third hour. We'll probably do new callers only. At least at the start. We gotta, we gotta, we gotta problem because some of you guys are so quick at calling in. If I don't do first time callers, it's like the same, the same five names. And I love you guys. They're all really amazing callers. We gotta give the other people an opportunity. So we'll do that in the third hour. So a lot more to talk about in this segment. And I do wanna tell you, we do have fantastic knives on sale at theauchjohnstore.com. In addition to our incredible supplements, and of course it keeps us on the air and in the fight. And preparing to make some very big announcements that we hinted at a little bit earlier. Maybe you can read between the lines there to see what's coming, but it's some very exciting stuff. And of course you go to theauchjohnstore.com to support us. And I'm just thinking about the, the oddity

29:00that has occurred, the strangeness that I've encountered, you know, Alex and I are both gonna be going to this conference. The Christ is King, America after Trump conference in November. And ever since Alex was announced as a speaker, seen a lot of people criticizing him because they have a very warped view of who Alex Jones is. And you know, the post-a clip of Alex talking about sort of getting knowledge from, I haven't know how to explain it. He's talking, you know, he's just talking about, you know, say something like I spoke to the watchers or something, you know, a phrase that just sort of encapsulates what Alex does, just ponder on this stuff and come up with the conclusion. Same thing, anybody that wants to be in this space and not just be repeating talking points has to do. And all this is to say, a lot of people out there, they may be great Christians, they may be very seemingly,

30:03they may think they're tuned in spiritually to the higher realm and, you know, what's going on. Until you experience the attacks that we've experienced, until you really are in the depth of what can only be described as like demonic influence swirling around you. And you just, I mean, you look at politics and half time the things that we're talking about, it's just inexplicable and we're like, how could this decision be made? But then to know it from inside, to be like inside something and to hear the way it's reported that's totally different. And you gotta realize, like for the last 10 years at least, all of us here, but Alex especially, have been in the midst of war, of spiritual warfare, physical warfare, monetary warfare, legal warfare. And you come to an understanding of things, if you're on the right track, you don't give up, if you don't give in, if you don't surrender or sell out and maintain your path and maintain your credibility

31:04and maintain your legitimacy and resist the temptation. I mean, people hear the story about Jesus being offered the world by the devil and resisting it. Have any of them actually been in that position? Have any of them ever been told, join us and you'll get everything that you want? Because Alex has actually been in that position, he's not Jesus or anything, but to have people say, hey, all of these problems can go away, all we need is for your nod, like the Persian emissary in 300, hey, just a little bit of salt, a little bit of dirt, just a symbol of your submission, that's all we need in the world will be yours. Not only will resistance bring about conflict and strife for you, but giving in will be rewarded greatly. Have you ever actually been presented that option? Have you ever actually been told by somebody with the power to deliver incredible wealth, incredible fame, incredible prestige?

32:04And would you have the fortitude or the spirituality to reject that? So, you know, I know some people think we talk about it a lot, what's happened with Infowars and what we've been through, but it's almost impossible to express what it's actually been like from the inside and the level of true, like spiritual groundedness you need, spiritual certainty you need to persist and continue when you know it's gonna be hard, when you know you're almost certainly gonna lose, when you know that there's an escape hatch and you could take at any point, all you have to do is sell your soul. All you have to do is sign on the dotted line and all of this strife will go away. All of these troubles will vanish and you will be uplifted and rewarded. And to reject that because you know it's wrong because you have something that you value higher than money or higher than, you know, earthly power. A lot of people talk really big about being in spiritual war

33:05and then they encounter somebody who's actually a champion in spiritual war, who's actually been through this world war one level trench warfare, just grinding spiritual conflict. And they see somebody like Alex Jones and they wanna ride him off because he's honest about who he is. In a sector, the right wing sector, that is to be honest, completely filled with frauds. I mean, almost to the brim, right? There's a few of us out there that are actually trying to tell the truth, that are actually sincere about what we represent in our personal lives as well as public. I can probably count on one hand, the number of people that I really think are sincere like that. And I would be one of them and Alex Jones would be another and then I'd be hard pressed to find the other three.

34:06But it's just shocking to me that so much resistance has come from the quote unquote Christian right. Way more, way more opposition, way more outrage than I've seen from the leftist at all. I've barely seen leftist or liberals, you know, talk about this or bring it up. It's people on the supposed right wing who are supposedly Christian, who are supposedly engaged in spiritual warfare that can't seem to recognize what spiritual warfare actually looks like in this world, how it actually manifests, that when you think of spiritual warfare, you just think of like spirits flying around and like, oh, you're going to be, you're going to have, you know, bad thoughts that you're going to have to overcome. And it's like, that's not what it's like. Spiritual warfare in this realm is being sued into oblivion, is having things stolen from you and having the powers that be, the authorities empowered specifically to deal with the problem that's affecting you, refuse to even take

35:06your case. It's having the most outrageous lies told about you and then having to watch in real time, as over the years, people who once knew the truth firsthand, start to actually believe the lie, the more it's repeated, the more people believe it. And some people obviously are just cynical, they don't actually believe anything and they're just going with any which way the wind blows, think about Laura Lumer, right? Laura Lumer used to know what happened to Alex Jones. She understood that everything that it happened, Alex Jones was not legitimate, was not a correct functioning of our legal system. And all of a sudden she wants to be enemies with Alex, so she's saying that actually, you know, he deserved it. Just like Trump did. That's what spiritual warfare looks like. It looks like your friends turning on you when they used to know the truth and nothing has developed that would change their mind other than their own persuasion.

36:08And then have people believe that. And then have people point to people that were your friends and say, well, this person was your friend and now they've turned against you, so that kind of proves that your enemies must be right. The whole time knowing that all you're doing is telling the truth, all you're doing is trying your best to express the American Christian worldview on the biggest stage possible. And just to be constantly beset with the most dishonest, the most deceitful, the most underhanded manipulative attacks and then to watch your very allies turn on you over it. That's what spiritual warfare looks like. A lot of these people have no idea what that would be like and could not handle it if it affected them to even a tenth of the degree that it affects us. So if you want to support real, actual spiritual warriors who have actually been battling the dark

37:10in so many different forms, I mean, my God, we've been, it's been crazy. It's been from the doxing to the threats to the lawsuits, to the lies, to the medium manipulation, to the bizarre effect of just repeating a lie over and over and over to where people who know in their own, but their own eyes, they know it's not true. They will still start to believe it. You see the power of this stuff and then you see the way that people who have endured this, people who have lived through this, people who have maintained their spiritual consistency throughout, get demonized and get basically called the opposite of what they are by a bunch of people who have never been through anything and have never stood up to anything or stood up for anything. It's just pathetic. And it's shocking seeing people who think that they're engaged in spiritual warfare. You see the horns come out and you see them turn on you,

38:12not even realizing what they're doing. It's again, like they're motivated by some extra sensory force. We know what it's like to actually be in spiritual warfare, which is why when you see things like Donald Trump, betraying his base and not fulfilling any of his promises and willing to go along with not just the Iran War, but the building of the digital panopticon. You go, here's a guy who was not prepared for spiritual warfare. Here's a guy whose spirit was inadequate to the challenge. Because all it is at the end of the day is do you persist? Can you persist through the attacks? Can you continue to drive for your goal when everybody around you is trying to divert you or trying to stop you or trying to slow you down? Donald Trump, unfortunately, seems like he reached the end of his rope sometime around 2024 and just threw in the towel and made a deal and said, look, I'll sign on the dotted line.

39:14I'll shake the devil's hand. Whatever I need to give you in order to stop the attacks, I'll do it. When a reality, everything needs to be doubled down on. And this is something that I feel like the right wing needs to get a handle on as well. For example, there's a statue being unveiled today in New York City of Charlie Kirk. And well, I think it's a wonderful thing and I think there should be statues of him all over the place. And I'm in favor of that. You know the left is going to just vandalize it and attack it. And probably, you know, poor red paint on it. So the right thing to do in this situation is not to bend the knee and bow to the left and bow to the terrorism and remove the statue, the actual, the correct, the moral thing to do is to put the statue up, put a security camera on it and charge anybody that messes with it with the highest possible charge you can get on them.

40:15And you know the way these things work, you can take what would be a minor misdemeanor and you can upcharge it because what that misdemeanor represents is actually something much greater. You can take things that aren't even crimes and transmogify them into felonies by interpreting the wording of the law, a particular way or writing a new law to assign certain behavior as worse than others. You know, there's nothing about the face act. There is nothing illegal, ostensibly, objectively, about standing outside of an abortion clinic. How could that be illegal? But you take the standing outside of the abortion clinic and you say that's an attempt to intimidate. Now you're talking about somebody who's using intimidation to deprive somebody of their rights. Well, now the act of standing outside of an abortion clinic, which is not a crime, becomes a felony crime with the face act. So this is the way that we need to be operating.

41:17This is where we all need to be operating. You put up the Charlie Kirk statue and then you have a law that says any attempt to deface or destroy or vandalize this statue will be treated as an attempt of political intimidation and you will be charged not just with vandalism but with vandalism with the intent to cause fear. It's a terrorism enhancement and you could go away for 20 years. And then you put up the statue and the first person that touches it, you throw into the jail for 20 years and you make it public and you say, we're gonna do it to the next person too. And then what are they gonna say? Oh, you know, this is unfair because I just had to attack the statue. You're not allowed to throw me in prison because I just really, really wanted to do it. Like this is just what you need to do. In the same way, you have deportation attempts and anybody who tries to get in the way, you just charge them with interfering in a law enforcement matter.

42:19If somebody that's a friend of mine texts me about a crime they committed and then I delete that text message. So when later I'm subpoenaed and I don't have the text message and I deliberately deleted it because I didn't want them to find, you know, my friend's confession, that I can be charged because I've with now is it a crime to delete your own message? No, obviously not. But in a certain context, yes, because it's concealing evidence. So you're letting somebody get away with the crime. So in the same way, if a police officer goes to arrest a murder suspect and you drive your car into them to help the murder suspect get away, you are now an accessory to the murder and you need to be charged with that. So it's just like all of this stuff, it's like we're relying on the left's good will. And we're just gonna like, we'll put up the statue, we'll be like now would be really bad if you'd to deface this, but they don't care. They're gonna deface it. They're gonna destroy it because they don't actually pay a price. It's all about just using the power of the government

43:19in the way that it's intended to be used for the benefit of the regular American people. And it needs to be used to punish our enemies for all of the crimes that they commit. It's really just infinitely simple. Again, the only question is, why are the people who we put in power unwilling to do it? It's because there are a couple options. There are only a few options as to why Republicans won't do what they promise and won't use the power of the government to actually achieve the ends desired by their constituency. One option is they are stupid and don't know what we want, but that can't possibly be true because they pretend to do what we want. They say promises about what we want. They declare Antifa a domestic terrorist organization like we want, then they just don't do it. So you can't say they don't know what we want.

44:21They do know because they tell us what they're gonna do. Another option would be they're trying to do it, but the other side is just too powerful and stopping them from doing it. That's also manifestly, obviously, observably untrue because when they want to do something, they do it and nobody can stop them. I mean, right now I've got a story. The most number of denaturalizations ever is occurring right now, only it's occurring. It's occurring on the basis almost exclusively of their support for Palestine. So it can be done and they could do it for anti-American behavior, anti-American activity, communist associations, but they're not. So you can't say they don't know. You can't say that they're trying and failing. The only thing that's left is that they just don't care, don't want to. That's it. It's just like have different priorities.

45:21Know what they need to say so they say it to trick you. Know they could do it, which is why they don't really try. They wanted to persist as it is. And I've said this many, many times. I have a practically every day it seems like I have to invoke the specter of things like South Africa in an effort to get people to understand where we're headed, where we're going, the trajectory that we're on and the fact that it's not speculation. We've seen this before. We know how this ends. The situation in South Africa is worse than anybody maybe understands and this should give you a little preview as to how long degradation can go on. How long the tale of this civilization can be as we continue step by step like every day, another piece of evidence of our decline is presented as we continue to decline and diminish and should get worse day over day.

46:24I don't know if there is a floor to this. I don't know if there's some point you can get to. To everybody wakes up and goes, okay, we got to reverse things. It doesn't happen. You can look to South Africa where they say this from commonsense.co.za. The government is running out of taxpayers. South Africa has fewer than one million serious taxpayers left. Each one of those taxpayers supports 35 social grant recipients. So for every one person making a positive contribution to the South African government, 35 people are subsisting entirely off that person's contribution. 35 people to every one taxpayer. Do you understand, like as bad as America is right now, it can get so, so much worse. Year on year growth in the second quarter of 2026 came at a 0.9% yesterday, down from 1.9% in the first quarter,

47:26of the many implications of South Africa's low growth rate, one of the least mentions is the effect on stunting the growth of the tax base and the extent to which this gives South Africa, roughly, South Africa's roughly one million serious personal income taxpayers, great leverage over the government. South Africa's a population of around 63 million people, one million of them pay taxes. 63 million people, one million pay taxes. Around 7.1 million or 11% earn enough to fall above the personal income tax threshold, meaning that they earn enough to register to pay personal income tax. There are only around 750,000 people earning more than 750,000, whatever their money is, South African dollars a year, equivalent to roughly 1.2% of South Africa's population, and these contribute approximately 56.7% of all personal income tax collected in South Africa.

48:26Okay, so 1% of the population pays for like 50% of the taxes. How important is personal income tax to total government revenue? It contributes 39.7%, corporate tax contributes 17.1%, and VAT contributes 24.5% with the balance made up by various levies and the like, but the people in that top $750,000 bracket are chiefly the same people who run the major companies and pay corporate tax and therefore drive the economic activity that makes VAT and levie collection possible. And it is therefore perfectly correct to say that under 1 million people are responsible for around 70% of all government revenue. So yeah, you can see right by this chart, the total population is 63 million. There are about 26 million on social grants. Only 16 million are employed. But only 7 million actually make enough

49:27to pay personal income tax less than a million people, around 2 thirds of a million people earn over $750,000, meaning that they're the vast majority of the income taxpayers. The government treats that top taxpayer group with contempt on both the substantive and petty scale. On the substantive scale, it dictates to them who they might employ or where they might invest threatens to expropriate that investment and threatens to nationalize their healthcare. On a petty scale as the Democrat Alliance is now doing, it wants them to tell them how many dogs they're allowed to keep and tax them on any surplus. On the other end of society, around 26 million South Africans are 45% of the population receive some form of social grant. This means there are roughly four social grant recipients for every one person earning enough to fall above the personal income tax threshold. For every one person earning more than $750,000 a year, there are approximately 77 other South Africans, 21 employees South Africans and 35 social grant recipients. And that direct social grant number is just the start of the broader welfare system that the fewer than one million

50:27people support. To grants must be added free state or subsidized state healthcare, free or subsidized school education, free or subsidized university education, which serves as welfare for large number of people in their late teens and early 20s. The payment of large numbers of unnecessary civil service salaries, which serve as middle class welfare and the financing of black economic empowerment, which serves as welfare for South Africa's class and politically connected oligarchs. It is a very large upside down pyramid bouncing on a very small point. That point will not get much bigger in a very low growth environment that remains as hostile to investment and entrepreneurship as South Africa's broader policy environment is, but the very low rate of economic growth will make demands on the state to grow even larger without that revenue base to meet them. The effect can only be that public frustration with the government increases and that voters look to all manner of alternative political solutions, more radical parties, and ultimately enclaves. So like do you understand how bad it can get? Do you understand that they worked out the process that is effective?

51:30They employed in South Africa, we're seeing the results of that now. It will continue, I guess, unabated. I guess it's only gonna get worse. The number of people actually paying taxes is only gonna decrease while the number of people subsidized by those tax dollars is only going to increase. There's no hint of a turnaround any time in the very near future because in order to achieve that, you would have to abandon the entire mindset that South Africa Rainbow Coalition was established on in the 80s. So until you're ready to acknowledge the fact that this entire system predicated on so-called racial equality is a giant scam to systematically disempower the productive members of society to award the least productive, till you're willing to do that, nothing is gonna change. And this is us in the very near future if we don't change our path first.
