We've been a farewell to the 2024 presidential election cycle with a recap of the left's most epic meltdowns. Don't worry, we've got every single one of them time-stand for you. And as the House and Senate prepared a reconvene up on Capitol Hill, the focus shifts to leadership positions, specifically Senate Majority Leader will know who the Senate Majority Leader is going to be tomorrow but will break down the race for you today. As Donald Trump's administration begins to take shape, the media and the left are coping and seething over it, we've got all the highlights, and Donald Trump takes a big step to ensure that our borders are going to be safe and secure again with the appointment of Tom Holman, as the incoming borders are. We'll bring you the latest on that, and all the rest of the incoming cabinet and administration picks as well. We've got a great slate of guests coming in here today. The iconic Roger Stone will be joining us with a 2024 presidential election recap and forecast on what we could expect during this time of transition. Texas Congressman Pat Fallon will be joining us as well. We'll catch up with Arizona Congressman Andy Biggs and constitutional attorney Jesse Benal will be joining us. But before we get to any of our interviews, let's jump right into these headlines and change the way you consume your news. Okay, this is not nom. This is bowling. They're a rule. Hey, hey, hey, junior! America! It's like... FOUR BASTEST! So stand by! All right, everybody, welcome to the Steak for Breakfast podcast. If you're a first-time listener, welcome to the show. If you're a long-time listener, welcome back to America's Fastest Growing. And quickly becoming favorite political podcast. On a busy news Tuesday, I'm Ron Noah's here with me. Yo. Noah, how's everything going? Pretty fucking good. Yeah, still glowing. Not in the bad way. But definitely watching things come together a little bit for the Trump administration. We're going to get to that a little bit later in the show. Noah, what do you think about some of the hires that are being floated out there? Oh, I'm interested to see the rest of them, for sure. And also confirmation that these are actually 100% true. I mean, some of the reports of it were people familiar with Trump's thinking. So, I mean, no, I completely get what you're saying. There's a lot of different avenues and methods that are being used to dump these potential hires into the media apparatus. And I don't know, from what I could tell right now, like, Kristi Noma is real. Because I got a text from somebody that's working very closely with the campaign last night to ask me how I felt about it. Did we ever have her on? I don't remember. No, no. We had her lined up a couple months ago, but then the whole book "Dog Thing" came out. Then she got busy. Well, she just wanted to do mainstream media after that. That's kind of the way it goes. But they'll be back. They always come back. And, you know, in the case of Marco Rubio, which, again, hasn't been made official official, you had the daughter of Susie Wiles via her official ex-count last night congratulate Senator Rubio on the pick to be the secretary of state. So, you know, they're not all coming out in Trump truths or official announcements from the campaign, but we will go through some of the official hires that have happened so far. And when you talk about putting a team together, I mean, we touched on it last week on the show. No, you had already gone. But the hiring of Susie Wiles being elevated to Chief of Staff for Donald Trump. First time in history that a woman's going to held the title of that. And for someone who finished on such a strong note and with a historic election victory, you have to say the job is well deserved. Yeah. I mean, I don't know if we're going to have anybody that we really dislike as a choice coming from this administration. Yep. This time around. And the thing is, I just want to remind our listenership, you will never like 100% of the picks or 100% of the people 100% of the time. And as everybody is continuing to play like almost fantasy football, ask with the whole admin, you know, out on social media and beyond, you just have to kind of take into account who's getting hired, who's already been hired, who's potentially going to get hired, how they play off each other. And the big thing here. They're working for President Trump. Again, we've highlighted this to the greatest extent for a number of years on the show. Donald Trump rarely makes the same mistakes. People want to armchair quarterback some of his hires. I mean, he's even gone out on the campaign trails and it's waning days and, you know, stumped for his pick of John Bolton in the context that he served in the last administration, only in the sense of when he dealt with like people having to do with like, let's just say, I ran and this is even after they drone Soleimani. You go into a meeting with these high level people from this regime and you bring John Bolton with you, who's only mission in life is to, you know, nuke that place out of existence. You have some chips in your corner than to have negotiations with. Yeah, you brought your mean dog to the party. Even though he has that bristly mustache and stuff like that. So I mean, even the mustache alone, you look into that thing too long and you automatically become a neo-con. But that's either here nor there. We're going to take you through all that. It is a proud Dick Duster. Yeah, it certainly is. We're going to take a little bit of time just in our first new segment to kind of see how the dust is settling and the left is still coping and seething, finger pointing knives out, performing autopsies. You name it, they're doing it. They are getting ridiculous. Like they're turning into us in 2020. Yeah. Meanwhile, we've never seen Joe Biden look better. And he went through an entire Veterans Day event yesterday. And again, happy Veterans Day to all of those who served. We really appreciate you guys in the show. It just so happened it didn't fall on a show episode as it has the last couple of years. This year, but here's the deal. We love our military families out there and everyone who, you know, has gone and served or continues to serve in any kind of context and supports our show. We absolutely love you guys and you help make the whole state for records experience greater with your DMs, your tags on social media. And when we have people from when, you know, with inside the branches here on the show. So yeah, Joe Biden went through an entire event yesterday. The only thing I really seen him do, he had a cough at an inappropriate time when we were kind of observing a moment of silence. But he cried a little, he laughed a little and he made it through his. It was an hour long service and he spoke for about 11 minutes of it. And he's living his best life right now is going to be suit us off for sure. To be former president, only person that I'm air quoting now has ever beaten Donald Trump. And, you know, to see him and Kamala Harris have to share the same five feet of space yesterday, which is absolutely delightful to watch. So watching, watching her sit next to his wife too, like the palpable uncomfortableness. It was also weird to see Tim Walts who they completely reinvented into some like gay, transitioned Mr. Garrison S character out on the Democrat campaign trail, this election cycle. Go back to he was wearing like the wrinkly non designer suits with the old man glasses and talked like a normal person when he went to, you know, back to his state to address constituents this week following the concession from Kamala Harris. So we'll take a look in and how the left is doing and they're kind of on life support right now. They totally dis yanked his whole wardrobe too. Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm saying. He was back in like the plaid flannel. The makeup trailer is gone. Yep, he had on the bifocal glasses on the tip of his nose and he was back in dad jeans with new balances on. So white ones? Yeah, but the party's over because, you know, they spent over a billion dollars in campaign funds and donations and actually went over $20 million into the red leading up to the election, which is just wild. We've had people from the left denying that they were paid to go out and support Kamala Harris, but there's already been people who have docked Beyonce's and Megan the stallions and Oprah Winfrey's approximately ACH accounts. And that's where you have these accounts set up to where if you do any kind of business work out there, there's like a one stop shop that you could just go and use this routing number to dump money into an account that will eventually funnel back to you. And people can track that? Certainly can. Most of the, you know, 50c threes and fours, their ACH accounts are made public information. So they saw that just in the case of Oprah, which I saw in the news over the past, like 12 hours, they were, they said she was paid a million bucks. They hit her bringing in her garbage cans yesterday and she said that's absolutely not true. And then over the course of the last three months from Democrat donors or the official campaign, there were two different 500 plus thousand dollar donations to Oprah's publicly viewed ACH accounts. So there's that. Yeah, the entire idea of the Democrat side of the ticket for this election was completely fabricated. There was nothing real about it. They had no policy. They had no accomplishments. They had no resume. And what we saw last Tuesday was something that will, I think, go down in the annals of history for much longer than just the next four years. So, you know, we were talking about these picks. We think about Lee Zeldin heading the EPA. I mean, Lee Zeldin ran Trumpish numbers in a blue state like New York in the last midterm elections running against the current governor there, Kathy Holjo. He helped retain a lot of the House seats, which in turn flipped the House back into Republican control leading up to this election as well. He's someone that's been a campaign surrogate for Donald Trump for the entirety of this campaign. We've heard at specific speaking events when Donald Trump is kind of verbally passing out his bouquets. He would point Lee Zeldin out and he's like, "I need you." I was thinking maybe Chief of Staff, maybe head of White House legal. You know, he sits at the America First Policy Institute too, someone that's well versed in all the America First policies. Deregulations is going to be what explodes figuratively. The energy industry here in the United States and having someone like Lee Zeldin sit at the top of that agency, I think it's a bold but impressive move. Yeah, it's going to be huge. I mean, that guy's going to rout the fucking shit out of that agency. Yeah, we're going to see him running through a lot of pieces of red tape with the scissors wide open. So did you have a good weekend, by the way? I mean, we're coming in out of the weekend now. Veterans Day was yesterday. Most of the people were off. There was a lot of traffic around in between sporty events that I was kind of navigating through. What about you? You have a good weekend? Yeah, I didn't do much. Just hung out with the family kind of stuff and got a discounted, a large shopping cart full of stuff attractors play. So any kind of pickups from tractor supply is a win-win. So if you say you got some big discounts, was that Veterans Day sales or what? Yeah, nice. I like it. So I had a busy weekend. For the third week in a row, I drove an hour and a half to a sporting event in one way. You know, I lived down in San Diego. I had to go out to Temecula for the third straight weekend. This time for my son's 11 year old pop Warner football final. They brought their undefeated record into the final game. Against a team, they beat 40 to 6 first week of the season. And with five and a half minutes left in the game, my son's team was losing 12-0. They were literally, yeah, I was watching the body language as someone who coached for, you know, over two decades in a previous life. A variety of sports, including football. I saw the body language after every whistle. The kids' heads are going back. You see them hitting their own thigh pads. And then the team fumbled. My son's team were covered two plays later. They threw like a 10-yard touchdown pass. Nice. They kicked off the ball. There was like three and a half minutes left. The other team tried to run some trick play on the first down of their next possession. And what happened was the quarterback threw the ball directly down the line of scrimmage called Zero Pass. The wide receiver caught it and went to duck one of my son's team's players who was diving to tackle him. And when he like stepped back to let that kid go through, the person that was coming in to block him blindsided him and knocked the football out. And my son's team recovered it unlike the eight-yard line going in. And scored the game-winning touchdown with less than a minute to play. Nice. Yeah. And the score wound up being 14 to 12. And pop a Warner at my son's age. Here's the way it works. I know you're not a big sports guy. I know us. Don't try to wrap your brain around this one. A two-point conversion is worth one point. And an extra point kick is worth two. Because of the skill level required at the age they're at. Do you get it? So the points are reversed for the task that they're performing. So the kid that plays next to my son blocked the first extra point. So it was six-nothing at halftime for the team that we played against. And then my son wound up breaking through and blocking the next touchdown's extra point. I hit him right in the shin game. A nice big well, which turned out to be the difference in the score. Two points would have been tied. And you want to know what happens when you tie any kind of a game high score under in a championship series where the field is hourly blocked off because as soon as my son's game is over 12, you was like warming up in the end zone. They flip a coin to determine who the champion is. Which isn't really fair, but that's the way it goes. Will they won by coin toss? No, they won because my son's team has a nice soccer player playing kicker. And we mode made one of two of our extra points. Oh, you guys actually legitimately won, but had it tied you would have been stuck with the coin toss, which nobody's really going to feel that great about. Nope. And yeah, so we were down 12-nothing with five-and-a-half minutes left and wound up winning 14-12. Nice. Yeah, just wild game and listen, I didn't get my first championship break as being part of any program. And I'm not trying to embellish here like Governor Walsh. I was an offensive coordinator. I was not a head coach. We played a tight game in the first championship game I've ever coached in, but we won 24-19. And I was 31 years old and I had played in the playoffs in college and in high school. I made the championship several times with other programs or teams that I was a part of. And my son got his first one at 11. Nice. So, yeah, if that wasn't emotionally draining enough, and on the back end of that hour and a half drive home, for the next two days, he was participating in like a round robin quadruple elimination baseball tournament. So, yeah. All day Sunday, all day yesterday, they wound up being runners up. They walked off on the last at bat. They were trying to call the game tied due to light. But our coach agreed like, listen, we started the game as a championship. It's only going to go like 10 more minutes. Let's just play and we might end up getting walked off, which means the other teams scored the game winning run on the last out of the game. But they were calling it for light because there's not lighting at the area that you were playing. Yeah, they had rotated around to a couple fields. It just so happened that the two teams that were going to make the finals were at this field. And it was like a 40-minute drive to the other side of San Diego to go to a lighted field. You know, the game's supposed to start at 3.30. We should be good. It wasn't good. It's like as soon as it gets dark out at like 4.45 here, as soon as that sun gets down, like, especially with baseball, you can't see the pitch. You can't see it off the bat. And it is a little bit dangerous. But yeah, they went to finishing off getting walked off, lost by one run in the finals. But, you know, since we paid $150 for a three-day tournament, we got a nice big fat championship ring, which was like three times the size of my son's football ring, which was the culmination of an entire pop-owner season. So that doesn't really make any sense, but he felt a little bit better about getting two pieces of hardware this weekend. Nice. I know they were doing rings for children. That's crazy. So they do rings in travel ball when you pay to go to these tournaments. You know, when you're just playing travel ball games, like you're in scrimmages, you're just doing like a three-way... Or anything like that. It's just like you guys go and play in the scores of the score. But when you go into these bigger tournaments, there's a couple big like nationally syndicated leagues, perfect game, NCS, USA baseball, and you enter your team in there. They're very competitive. Teams come from... I mean, we went to one last year. You pay for your own ring? No, you don't pay for your own ring, but I mean, this is the deal. You kind of do. It's like $150 a month for my son to be on the team. Yeah, yeah. You're paying for the ring. Yeah, he plays in like two or three tournaments a month. And they've ranged from like 70 to like this weekend was $150 for like the Veterans Day Classic. It was a nice ring, like red, white, and blue flag on the side. Like the ring I got when I won the football championship back in the day. And you know, and then you have to travel. And then every single day that we went to this event, it was $10 per person to get in to park your car. Really? And it just so happened because my daughter had soccer practice on Monday in the middle of the day. My wife had to take a second car, so we wound up paying like double for parking. And yet, it's just, you know, in between the game, sometimes you're there like last weekend, you were there from eight in the morning till 11 30 p.m. at night. And you got to buy food and, you know, hang out and find stuff to do. It's just paying the ass sometimes, but he likes it. He's good. I always tell my kids, if you weren't good at sports, you wouldn't be playing all this shit. But they're good. So they play. And yeah, it was just a busy weekend. So wasn't really ready for today, but here we are. And we've got an action pack lineup coming in here as always. We're going to be catching up at the end of this segment with none other than Roger Stone. He's got his finger on the pulse of America First. Obviously talks to the president and a lot of people who are going to be working in the administration on a regular basis. He's going to give us a little bit clearer picture about how we saw this race end and what he sees for the future heading into obviously inauguration in the first hundred days. We've got two great congressmen coming on the show today as always. We'll be circling back for the first time in a while because he was out there doing so much work. Not only in the state of Arizona, but across the country with all these candidates who were in America First, representative Andy Biggs. So great to be catching up with him and Texas representative Pat Fallon. I caught Congressman Fallon right before the show started as he's traveling to Capitol Hill today. We'll be catching up with Congressman Biggs in our next edition of the podcast. He got back to DC yesterday, so he'll be all set up in his office. And then we'll be jumping in with Jesse Benal to run the end of the show off today as we've got a lot of stuff to talk about. What's going on with the Trump legal cases? I'm sure everybody that's listening to the show today, which is Tuesday, saw the announcement this morning from Judge Juan Mershan of a New York that they're suspending the finality of Donald Trump's trials there. I guess that has to do with the sentencing because of the formality that goes with him winning in the presidency of the United States. That's a pretty interesting thing. Last Tuesday night, when that race was called, Donald Trump was going to find out if he was likely going to rot in jail for the rest of his life or return to the Oval Office and sit behind the resolute desk. I mean, he couldn't ask for any worse of a, you know, I'll put a $10 billion on black than Donald Trump did when he rolled the dice the other day in the presidential election, but obviously it worked out in his favor. But the suspension has like filled up the news today with a whole bunch of garbage. I see like, you know, Andrew McCarthy and Jonathan Turley, like, what does this mean? Does this mean in 2029 they're going to send in Donald Trump? Like, who knows? Who knows what's going to happen? I think if he didn't win, all that shit was just going to go away anyway because there was no more potentiality for him to do anything damaging to the Democrat machine, basically. That's a good point. One other interesting news item I saw. So there was some clarity on the conclusion of the rally circuit in what seemed like it might have been its final breath. But much like Noah had alluded to last week, the Trump team confirmed over the weekend that that was not Donald Trump's last rally ever. It will be his last rally ever as a candidate. That doesn't mean that he might in some instances go out. Let's just say in the 2026 midterm election cycle, but they also did clarify that he would like to post presidency, go out there and do the things like he liked it. It's like a fireside chat, but you fill up a sporting event. That's what Donald Trump likes it. He likes it. He really does. And you can only assume that, you know, someone, he'll have a horse in the race for the next election cycle and we'll have to see where that goes from there. So we'll be looking to talk about the Senate leadership, which is up for grabs. I've talked to a lot of people on both sides of the aisle, a couple offices of senators that come on the show, a senator or two who frequent stake for breakfast, obviously about a dozen people from the lower chamber in the House of Representatives. They're all expecting us to have to deal with the fact that John Thune is more than likely going to be the Senate majority leader. And that's, you know, an acolyte of Mitch McConnell and someone that. We'll get into the whole Star Wars narrative of it a little bit later. I found it actually a pretty good clip from one of our America First Congress when she laid it out on a Sunday night news show that I thought was a very good way that people can identify with. But here's the deal. You know, you only see like 11, 12, 13 people publicly coming out in support of Rick Scott. After the last election last week, anything could happen. But I just tell you, you know, we're going to run into a couple roadblocks, but here's the deal. And I want everybody to go into this with an open mind because I see people coming out and being hyper critical of people like Marco Rubio being tabbed for the Secretary of State or, you know, some of the other picks like people were confused on why Kristi Noem was being appointed to the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security. Here's the argument I made. The guy that's currently in charge of the agency, number one, had no experience going in regarding border security. He was an immigration guy because he was the head of CIS before he had to step down on to Barack Obama. And number two, he's let over 22 million people unabatedly and unvetted into this country. So here's the deal. She couldn't do a worse job. No. She's been a close ally of President Trump. She's also been someone that lives in a non-border state. But as a red governor that on numerous occasions has gone down in support of border security. Well, she's a rancher too. And a lot of those ranchers in Texas are being impacted a lot by what's happening. We're South Dakota. But you know, it's one of those things that she's stood shoulder to shoulder with Donald Trump on policy. I told you guys, for the last couple months and leading up to this election, there have been people who are already being vetted and being given like the riot act of policy training in regards to what's going on in agencies that they're looking to audition for. So don't worry about it. You know, it's just like the Marco Rubio thing. You've got a good cop, not maybe a strong cop in Marco Rubio. The other side of that coin is Tom Holman. You know, you have Christie Noem who knows about border security but now is going to have to administer over it. But you have people at the other side of the agency right there like Lee Zeldin at the EPA who's going to be working on, you know, some of the stuff to get deregulation. So there's a lot of ways the people that are coming into the administration right now are working off each other. Stephen Miller is going to be in there. I mean, if Christie Noem needs to tap anybody in the administration that knows everything about everything, about border security and immigration. It's Stephen Miller and I'm sure they'll be working very close together as he's been appointed to a high ranking circuit position as well. So Tom Holman being the quote unquote borders are like what position officially is that? Because I know Kamala Harris was supposedly the borders are but it didn't really change her appointment or anything like that. And then Christie Noem is going to be the actual DHS secretary. So obviously Holman's above that, but what position is that exactly? Do we know or is that just kind of a nuance like thing that they're doing now? This is the way it was explained to me during the election cycle. We weaponize the term borders are even though those words were never uttered out of Joe Biden's mouth. The responsibilities he gave her essentially tagged her as the borders are in Donald Trump's incoming administration. All the things we allege Kamala Harris should have been doing. Tom Holman will be in control of and more. So he's going to be essentially like the emperor of deportations. If I put it frankly. And like I said, 60 minutes wasn't ready for that interview a couple weeks ago when that lady tried to go down the avenue of family separations and we made a little, you know, the Michael Bay ending to the Transformers movie meme about it. Yes, they put it on our social media making good good rounds around the Internet right now. So if you haven't seen it go over and share it on our Instagram, it's got a cover page of Thanos finally being able to rest after snapping the entire well half of existence out of existence. And then on Twitter and true socials, just a regular post of Tom Holman during a 60 minutes interview. Yeah. Every time we've had him on the show, I've just, I've really enjoyed like, you can actually tell the guy gives a shit about this gig. Like, I thought he was going to be DHS secretary or ICE or something again. Why have to worry about Senate confirmation and maybe check it, check it or parts of his past that a lot of a mainstream or establishment people don't agree with when you can appoint him to a position that actually wields more power. Spoiler alert. He'll be joining us on the show on Friday to check in. Nice. Let us know that the future looks bright and filled with outbound going planes. And probably. I thought we were going to lose access to more people just because like we were, we were on the cusp of actually having Trump on the show for a while there, but then shit just kept going wild for the guy and this wasn't really a feasible thing that we're not in the fucking same orbit as Joe Rogan, for instance, but whatever. What are you going to do? Yeah. I mean, I would, I would gladly yield to Joe Rogan and Aidan Ross and deal Vaughn and those people. Yeah. I mean, even the NELK boys I used to think like, if you ever listened to the NELK Boys Full Send Podcast, it's not for everybody. But I've enjoyed their podcast. They just talked about doing cocaine. Yeah. But I mean, I've enjoyed the NELK Boys. Donald Trump interview in the same way that I actually did people like Rick Ross, because I want to know what he was like in real life. Yeah. And it's just like it's when you listen to Rogan, you get the headlines in the beginning. And then by the time you hit like the hour and 20 minute mark, they're like upside down. Yeah, exactly. UFC fights and, you know, quantum theory and stuff like that. So, as soon as I start saying that, yeah, man, pull up the YouTube. Pull up the YouTube. Let's see the shit right now. Like, that's when you know it's kind of going off the rails. But it's, it, it retains a lot of listeners and is very successful. So. Yeah. And like I've said, for people that are looking for something to show somebody that's on the other team, whether it's your family member or whatever, the Trump one may not be the correct one to show them as informational and whatever, because it was just, like we said last, last couple of shows of fanfare for us or fan, what would you say was. It was fan service. That's what it was. Yeah, fan service. That's right. But listen to the JD Vance interview with Joe Rogan and that is the most solid of solid interviews that I think I've heard in the last couple of years. Yeah. Because, you know, Joe Rogan, like, listen, when it comes to policy, when it comes to foreign relations, when it comes to like the intricacies of how the government works, he's very shallow in the knowledge base of what he could ask and like follow up to try and get more. But when he wanted to like open up that door and really understand Donald Trump, the person, I think he did a really good job of that, humanizing the president and making him that touchable candidate, which we've all fallen in love with over the course of the last decade or so here. So. Yeah. Just a lot of stuff going on today. Nothing really. I mean, groundbreaking except for people coming into the administration, all of the members of Congress are heading up to take Capitol Hill today's report day. And I want to put this out there as well. You know, when talking to some of the congressmen over the phone, over the weekend, that are going to be coming in the show here soon, they are really itching to get into. They'd like to have a sit down of the five families. We've broken down for you on the show with the five families of Congress are the different factions, which were outside of the established like, you know, power portions within the Republican conference, within the Republican house. And they would like to really sit down and get on the same page because listen, when you talk about reconciliation and what's coming down the pike, HR one, HR two, Lake and Riley Act deregulations, et cetera, the assault on liquid natural gas and things like that and places like Pennsylvania, these things should all be ready to go. If Donald Trump's going to be looking to executive order some of the biggest amounts of executive orders on day one, the Congress gets sworn in January 3 that 17 days before Donald Trump will be, they need to have everything ready to go. So the only thing that's working on January 20th from the American people is the pen on Donald Trump's desk, signing things into law. What do you think the overunder is going to be? Is there betting odds on how many executive orders? He was really low in the last time because he wanted to debunk all the narratives, the World War three, the army, but I think this time again, the Trump doctrine is at stake. His legacy is at stake. The country is 10 times in a worse position than it was the first time he took office and they eoed a lot of his things that were working for the American public out of existence on day one or in the first initial period, Joe Biden's first hundred days. So he's looking to at least at the very minimum get all that stuff back. And does that really count? Like if you were going to do the actual numbers, does it count reinstating stuff that they it spitefully removed? Yeah. I mean, I don't know if that would really count the betting odds. Yeah, that's a that's a good point as well. A lot of caveats. We'll be checking in with places like Polly Market and Cauchy over the course of the next couple of weeks, leading up in two and through the holidays as we see what they think about that as well. But yeah, I think I covered all the news items. We're going to jump into it right now. I mean, we still kind of got to enjoy the fact that the left is coping and see the levels that we've never seen before. You know, they put out a poll on like this week in fake news, one of the Sunday morning new circuit shows this weekend, 54% of people that supposedly voted for Kamala Harris would like to leave the country before Donald Trump is sworn in. So if Kamala Harris got 70 million votes, let me just answer for everybody. Bye. Yeah. Don't let the jet blue hit you on the wall. Don't the wall hit you on the way out and that's getting 10 feet higher too. Mexico is coping and seeing a little bit as well, saying they are not prepared to have as many as four million new non-entrance to the United States camped out on the other side of the fence, much like it was the case when Donald Trump left office back in 2021, again, or even more. So yeah, there's a lot of moving parts going on. There's a lot of stuff going on this week, but let's check in on the left and see how they're still dealing with Donald Trump's historic landslide victory from last week. First clip I've got is of, well, this woman is a consultant. These are the people that really make the money during the election cycles because what they do is they go out and lobby for donations and then they have like an established percentage that gets skimmed off the top and put directly into their bank account, they were most notoriously known for their work in the 22 midterm election cycle where everybody called red wave and then we kind of had like a red trickle. But the consultants across the country made hundreds of millions of dollars over telling people they were winning the races when they really weren't. The consultants in this cycle though probably are definitely coming up in a much larger fashion. But again, you had Donald Trump at the top of the ticket and you had him changing the way that Republicans go out and campaign traditionally here. But she was one that consulted for the left and was like a liaison between the biggest donors on the left and what was going on with Kamala Harris and the story that she's come to tell. She's had like one of those, "I feel so guilty I need to tell a story about it." So she's come out to the press over the course of the last couple of weeks. I thought it was actually an interesting clip. No check this out. I mean, you know, I'm not on anyone's payroll, I'm not holding anyone, that's why I'm here telling the truth. I'm not here to gasoline anybody, this is just the truth. What is the truth? The truth is the, this is just an epic disaster, this is a $1 billion, just a $1 billion disaster. Actually it was $1 billion, $18 million I think, right, there were $20 million or $20 million or $18 million in debt. It's incredible. I raised millions of that, I have friends that I have to be accountable to and to explain what happened because I told them it was a margin of error raised. I was promised, General Malley Dillon promised all of us that Karis would win. She even put videos out saying that Harris would win. I believed her, my donors believed her and so they wrote massive checks. I just, I feel like a lot of us were misled and even on the night of election night, well, I looked somebody in the eye and I said, "Are we going to do this? Are we going to pull it off?" He told me yes and I asked somebody else, like, "How are you feeling?" He's like, "We're going to win Iowa." And I was like, "What?" Did they believe this going in? Was there a real sense of false confidence on the side of Kamala Harris or did they know they were in store for disaster? You know, I was wondering about that. I was like, "Are you, I asked them, are you privated internal numbers that I am not seeing?" Because I study this so carefully and I just wasn't seeing any basis for that level of confidence. And I also want to remind our viewers that, you know, the Trump campaign was touting all these incredible empirical data weeks before election night. What Harris is touting was the door knocking. She didn't say anything really about early voting. Now I know it's because there was nothing much to say. Yeah, it doesn't help that you're knocking on a lot of doors if those doors are getting slammed in your face every time they open right now. Yeah. And when they talk about the numbers of the donors given this money out and them lying, when they have access to the internal polling, it's very disingenuous. But I'd be willing to venture to say that all the upper echelon people in the Harris campaign probably got paid and everybody on the lower echelon got left holding the bag for that 20 million that they're short. Oh, there were checks bouncing on Wednesday of last week across the board and you see all of these. They were actually bouncing checks. They actually issued checks and they bounced. You could just tell that the money had dried up from the way that these people were coming out and being so rabid on social media. Yeah. They were always mad. And you know, it's just one of those things. Listen, you hear that number of billion dollars and in this day and age and with things going on, let's just say countries like Ukraine, it doesn't seem like it's a lot of money. But when you talk about a national campaign and the fact that they spent or wasted essentially over a billion dollars, Kamala Harris was a candidate for 117 days. She wasn't a candidate from 2022, like Donald Trump was, she hasn't been a candidate in the fashion that Donald Trump essentially has been since 2015. They burned through this money in essentially three months. And that is some of the craziest shit that I've ever heard in my life because it's almost impossible to do that. And they got nothing to show for it, nothing. They lost everything. And by any beachfront property. Most importantly, they lost the trust of the American electorate in addition to so many demographics and cross tabs across the board. There wasn't a number that Donald Trump didn't improve and move into the America first category in this electorate that Kamala Harris or, you know, was in charge of keeping after the election of Joe Biden and Barack Obama before her. And when you think about how bad this was, it is not something that gets fixed overnight. You see a lot of people continuing to hold the line in regards to all of the things Americans don't care about like transgender rights, reproductive freedom, because it's been sent back to the States. I don't mean they don't care about it. It's just it's 1% of the population really cares about it. The rest of us are more inclined to be worried about the economy and being safe. You want to know what my favorite meme is going around the internet right now? No. It's a good one. What's that? So there's all of the girls online who have these massive TikTok and Instagram accounts that are talking about, like this is the end of reproductive freedom. So they're going on Amazon and they're purchasing, you know, the Handmaid's Tale costume for Halloween. Somebody went online and looked at the actual costume and when you hit the drop down on the size, two X and three X are sold out. But all the other sizes are available. I'm saying got to get the Chinese factory burning some coal. So every single time one of these bitches posts, one of those posts, they just take a screenshot of the sizes that are sold out and put it underneath it like no one's having sex with you anyway. So why would you even be on the internet explaining about it? We're good. Yeah. Yeah. So I mean, I don't need someone that looks like me with a shirt off saying that she's having a sex strike for the next four years on the internet that's going to move the needle in any way. Yeah. It's the most empty of empty threats like this fucking Karen with green hair is saying that well, guess what, the doors are closed now it's like those doors have cobwebs on them. You're fine. Believe me. Are they still open for refugees only by force speaking of which former husband to Kelly and Conway George who resides on MSDNC now to provide some of his titillating commentary as that he continues to transgender into whatever asexual weirdo kind of person he continues to develop into, you know, was having one of those come to Jesus moments really about just not being able to wrap his brain around how we said Hitler, a threat to democracy, a clear fascist who was doing the handmaid's tail and is going to nuke everybody and only make his friends rich. We said that and nobody believed it. Let's check it out. Well, it's the little boy that cried wolf. It actually happened or cried transgender or cry. This election was, isn't new. And that's sort of maybe it's why I'm not taking this as badly as people might think. It's like the problem was we always have 40 or 45% or whatever the numbers people who would have are going to vote for him anyway. They may tell you, oh, it's the price eggs but they, you know, if it weren't that it would be, you know, it would be something else, some of those. I mean, I think they're a legitimate voter, they're voters who are actual swing voters who have been negatively reflected by inflation, but let's just set that aside. The 40, 40 something percent who are going to be there no matter what, they consume an information diet that is, you know, self-selected in a way that, you know, that is addictive. And this is essentially, we have a bubble around 40% of the population at least. And they don't, they don't know basic things about what Trump has done. Whenever Trump says something crazy and starts to perform vulgar acts on a. We're not going to get into the law, or are these going to call them a rapist and all this other stuff. Listen, well, it's a projection and deflection right there because that is their base to a T. 100%. No, any of the stuff that's going on that's negative for the Biden administration, the Harris campaign or any of the horrible shit that's going on because all they consume is this media that says everything's fine. Cut your dick off. It's the truth. And when you look, listen, going into this election, even with the astronomical numbers that Joe Biden received last time, the average amount of votes of the presidential candidate or ticket winner would win in this election is 65 million votes. We are on the back end now of two consecutive elections, two, where Donald Trump is going to receive 75 million votes. You can't make this stuff up. You know, all the things, and listen, in a sense, George Conway is correct because for years, Ben Shapiro, the ruthless podcast, so many people in the mainstream said their biggest concern with Donald Trump is that he was a 40 to 44% of a ceiling candidate when it comes to the electorate. How is he going to move the needle to get it over 50%? Well, assets, go back and look at the last two years of work as a collective body and understand when you are real and you are genuine, and you point out the things that people actually care about because you go out on the ground and do the work and meet with the people who are actually getting railroaded by this shit, it's going to resonate into election win. Now, again, is it a little bit different because it's Donald Trump? Sure. The guy is probably one of the top three most recognized people on our planet right now, if not in the history of our country. Yes, but his ability to identify with the common man because he enjoys the common man was one of the things that helped do this in a way that it's never been done before. I hope these guys were taking notes. You know, and again, I'll keep going back to Marco Rubio. Before Donald Trump entered this political arena, we were the party of Reagan and Bush and Romney and McCain, war-mongering neocons. Now, over the course of the last nine years or so, that entire mindset has changed. It's flipped now to where the Democrats are, the neocons or the neo-libs. And Republicans are the parties of peace through strength and ending forever wars. So why can't people change for the better? As you would want people like Marco Rubio 10 years ago to be a representative of his party, when that was what the party reflected now coming into the Trump administration and going to be the top diplomat outside of the president in the administration moving forward, you would hope that his policies have changed as well. And again, remember, he works for President Trump. President Trump doesn't work for him. And he works for the American people and with the mandate that they sent President Trump to Washington DC too. So if everybody wants their two minutes of crying about it, I really think you're making much to do about nothing when it comes to people like Marco Rubio. I think he's going to be just fine. I've seen him strongly and at the risk of his political future align himself with Donald Trump and some of the toughest times he's been through over the course of the last couple of years. And again, loyalty means everything. And after Donald Trump announced on November 15 of 2022 that he was going to do this one more time, the loyalty slate was wiped clean and he wanted to see who was going to be with him for this one last hurrah. So that's how you're seeing it kind of develop into some of these picks here. And again, there are the retards that are just going to go on the mainstream media and talk about all the things that we know aren't true, race is big it misogynistic, fascist, etcetera. Here's a perfect example of it right now. It's this sense that whiteness is under threat, the demographic shifts the country isn't what all of these racially ambiguous children on Cheerios commercials are confusing the hell out of me. A lot of people voted because their life's too damn expensive and it was here and it voted for you're telling me, Stefan, that all of these people who believe that their lives are that bread is too high and eggs are too high that they voted for a convicted fella, a guy who said we can grab the pea. I think that a lot voted for this guy, I'm not defending it, but I think there are tons of people that don't pay attention to and I'm not defending it don't pay attention to politics at all, but while we live in the most prosperous country in the world, people are saying life's not fair, I'm not doing well, my son's still living in the basement, I can't seem to get a job, I don't like the status quo of voting for something else and he was the first person. I love you to life, but I do not believe that. I cannot believe that and the reason I think you believe it is because you don't want to believe that that's what's really motivating them. It's always the case, people don't want to believe what the country actually is because if they believe it, they're going to have to confront what's in them. I don't believe that. Now, again, if the Democrats want to continue to put people like Eddy S. Cloud into positions of leadership and run future elections based on the fact that Republicans vote Republicans because they're mad white children no longer appear in cheerio commercials. More power to you because it'll be a lot easier to bring home the W's, but that is literally some of the stuff we're looking at. As we're saying goodbye to this historical election and putting it in the rear view, we did dodge some bullets and I'm not just talking about the 226 that was passed Donald Trump's year in Butler, Pennsylvania back in July of this year. I'm talking about human form in the cases of people like Tim Walsh and his creepy lizard person skin wearing wife. I had mentioned that they had gone back to their home state of Minnesota over the weekend where they met constituents to talk about getting back to work for the people there and hopefully not letting cities burn anymore. But when you look at people like Tim Walsh's wife, "I'm not sure if you heard me. We cannot and we will not give up this bite." It's right, come on, come on, it's right. That's right, we cannot and we will not give up this bite. That's right. All right, you can sit down now. She sounds like a real peach, huh? Yeah. She sounds fun. Like her dinner parties are probably lit. She looked like when she was at that speaking engagement, like she was dressing up for Hillary Clinton for Halloween. And yeah, or in the case of Tim Walsh himself. Sometimes we can be quick to judge people who don't agree with us to assume that they act out of cruelty or fear or self-interest. I don't think that kind of judgment is helpful right now and I don't think it's right. I think we ought to swallow and this is me in this as I'm speaking about myself. Swallow a little bit of pride and look a little harder to find common ground with our neighbors. Follow it harder? Like we did in this election. Maybe we won't agree on every issue, hell maybe we won't agree on any issue. But maybe when the campaign signs come down, we all get a little break from the rhetoric and the TV ads and the fundraising tax and I'm sorry about those. Maybe when we get a little break from this campaign that we're in, we'll be able to look at each other and see not enemies but neighbors and maybe we'll be able to set down over coffee or a diet Mountain Dew and just talk. Talk about our kids. Talk about the lives we want to build for them. Talk about the things that really matter, how we treat each other, how we look out for each other and how we support each other in difficult times. So you cut all of that Noah, right? The people that literally have threatened us with jail forever and cancellations to the forever degree and called the leader of our party, the Republican candidate for president, Hitler reincarnate. Now they want to have a drink and a dinner party and see eye to eye on getting onto the same page of things we don't agree about. Yeah, pretty interesting, there's so much like there is going to just be nonstop information overload from everything that's going on Donald Trump has put out a couple good posts throughout the course of the selection cycle, but none better than the slow troll that was this one, which came on X. I am very surprised that the Democrats who fought a hard, valent fight in the 2020 presidential election, raising a record amount of money, didn't have a lot of money left over. They are now being squeezed by vendors and others. Whatever can we do to help them during this difficult time period, I would strongly recommend we as a party of unity and for the sake of the desperately needed unity do. We have a lot of money left over in that our biggest asset in the campaign was, quoting earned media and that doesn't cost very much. By the way, make America great again. They just offer to pay, come on Iris's light bill. He offered to have them come and ask for money because they didn't have to spend a billion dollars to beat the biggest money making machine in the history of politics, which Donald Trump has now essentially defeated three times. It's just amazing what this man was able to do. Much like our show's winding up or turning out to be today, guys, wherever you're listening to steak for breakfast, do us favor. Make sure you're sharing the show with friends, family, coworkers, and loved ones. Got to get those subscriptions back up on places like Apple, Spotify, iHeart, Samsung, Amazon podcast, or wherever you're listening to the show, make sure that we're downloading to electronic device helps us out a lot. We saw the Apple top 100 twice over the weekend coming in both at 73 and 81 on consecutive days. Also, check us out on social media, Twitter, get our two social Instagram and TikTok is where we have accounts, find them, follow them, hit the notification bell. You'll never miss out on all the great stuff we've got going on here on steak for breakfast. So I hate to follow up with a sound bite from Tim Walts and lead with another one directly by Anderson Cooper. But listen, we have to continue to look at and perform the autopsy on where all these numbers for Donald Trump came from. It wasn't from Pelican boxes underneath the table on the back end of a water pipe supposedly breaking or U-Haul trucks in the middle of the night. Like much was the case in 2020 for Joe Biden. But this was from demographics and cross tabs, which most traditional Republican candidates never waded into and Donald Trump did extraordinary and let's hear it. You've heard me over the last few days. I do have concerns about the way the Democratic Party relates to working class voters in this country. The only group that Democrats gained with in the election on Tuesday was White College graduates. And among working class voters, there was a significant decline. The only group they won among were Democrats, one of them were people who make more than $100,000 a year. You can't win national elections that way and it certainly shouldn't be that way for a party that fashions itself as the party of working people. So I think he has a point, I might know this because we've been talking about it. You can't approach working people like missionaries and say we're here to help you become more like us. There's a kind of unspoken disdain, unintended disdain in that. I think Biden has done, you know, programmatically some good things for working people, but the party itself has increasingly become a smarty pants, suburban college educated party and it lends itself to the kind of backlash that we've seen. And I was able to act for a former top Obama administration staffer coming to terms with the fact that, you know, not only has the messaging changed over the course of the last couple election cycles, but the people who are actually voting for Democrats are or has because of the way that they've changed the things they've campaigned on or actually gotten done for the American people, which isn't that much when it comes to safety, security, energy, anything geopolitically, or the economy, and instead going after things like race, gender, DEI, and women's reproductive freedoms and things of that nature. So again, the very disconnected one percenters are the ones that are actually going out and stumping for the Democrats now, they've become the party of the elites and the warmongers. And on the Republican side, you have just about everyone else in America as you saw throughout the course of this campaign, Donald Trump received endorsements or had entities not endorse Democrats in a fashion that they never have before. And the messaging that they crafted really did resonate into what got him over the finish line last Tuesday. So Carnegie did his little number spiel. I want to touch on this one real quick, just part of the Sunday morning news circuit. He would come in always with the, I mean, again, I'm just looking at this graphic right here, Trump was best GOP showing in ages 18 to 29 and 20 years, black voters in 48 years and Hispanic voters in over 52 years. So record numbers from traditional Democrat voters like we've never seen before. We'll get into it a little bit more, but let's check out this audio clip first. Not just Donald Trump winning the election, but winning the popular vote first time in two decades for a Republican and how did he do it? He did it by transforming the Republican party. It is now more diverse than it's ever been in modern times and certainly much more than when Donald Trump first came on the scene eight years ago. A lot of ways to look at this. How about this here? It says pre-Trump. That's the last presidential election before Donald Trump started running. You got to go back to 2012 for that. Remember three straight elections. Trump's been the Republican candidate. So pre-Trump voters under 30 were going for the Democrats by 23 points. That's with incomes under 50,022 points for the Democrats, folks without college degrees, four points for the Democrats. That's pre-Trump. What comes out of this election? Look at some of these shifts. The youth vote, that Democratic margin cut more than in half. Voters under 50,000, now a Republican constituency, voters without a college degree. Look at that shift. Now a core Republican constituency and then we can talk about race, ethnicity. This gets into that diversity I mentioned a minute ago, check this out, again, pre-Trump versus now. The black vote still overwhelmingly Democratic, but that's a 15-point shift. It used to be 87 points for the Democrats down to 72. How about this? You've heard a lot about it this week. This is what the numbers look like. Hispanic voters were 44 points Democratic before Donald Trump, now basically a toss-up constituency and Asian-Americans, a 32-point shift there as well. That's what's happened to the Republican Party since Donald Trump became its standard bearer eight years ago. Why does 10 ever, most diverse administration ever, working for the most Americans out there that I think any president has done before? I mean, when you look at just some of those numbers, Noah, blacks was nearly 90% for Joe Biden and they were all the way down to 72. That's a pretty historic flip. I mean, the Hispanic Latinos, that was almost 50% of all Latinos voted for Democrats, including Joe Biden in the last election. Donald Trump had moved that needle to plus seven, which means that's more than a 50-point swing in the entire demographic of the country. Yeah, it's a wild shift. It's wild to see the way that he has reshaped things and the way that we're going at this right now. Of course, what does that mean? To hear these numbers, the party leadership right now is extremely old. I think we're at the end of a generational shift for the Democrats now. As you see, Barack Obama out on the campaign trail of the cycle obviously has lost his fastball. Bill Clinton can't put two sentences together. Nobody likes Hillary. Nobody likes any of these bigs. Like when Taylor Swift's Beyonce and Oprah don't do it for you anymore, it's time to go in a completely different direction. Yeah, you're done. You're done. And what does that mean? As these political figures are getting ready themselves, and I'm talking about the Pelosi's, the Schumer's, et cetera, to probably whisk their way out of politics, I don't think. I mean, Chuck Schumer will likely run for reelection again, but I can also see a scenario where he doesn't. Depending on how good it looks of us retaining both chambers in the midterm elections here in 2026. Nancy Pelosi, I thought she was going to retire a house cycle or two ago. This might be it for her. I thought she was going to die a house cycle or two ago. I know, nobody really listens to her in the, she doesn't have the same, you know, when they used to say, oh, Nancy Pelosi had a razor thin margin, and she was able to railroad legislation through like no other, she couldn't do that today if the Democrats had both chambers. It wouldn't be as easy because people just don't buy her bullshit anymore. So the knives are out within the, the Democrat party and let's hear how the news is looking at it. Democrats now grappling with their stunning loss and trying to figure out what went wrong. If the president gotten out sooner, there may have been other candidates in the race, Kamala, I think still would have won, but she may have been stronger having taken her case to the public sooner. I think people never got to know Kamala Harris during the time she was in this campaign. If the goal is to win elections on Twitter, then you should embrace movements like defund the police. But if the goal is to win elections in the real world, where it matters, then you have to appeal to working class people of color. The party itself has increasingly become a smarty pants suburban college educated party. I take issue sometimes with people saying, oh, the quote unquote left is the reason why this is happening. The ultimate problem is our ability to clearly and forthrightly advocate for an agenda that clearly champions the working class. Joe Biden's decision to run for president again was a catastrophic mistake, but we can all unite in knowing that Joe Biden would have lost and deserves a lot of blame for this situation that we're in. So when all else fails, just blame good old Joe Biden, who's living his best life right now following the events of last week. But again, Noah, when you hear different people from within the party, there was Nancy Pelosi, Richie Torres, who's a congressman, obviously AOC put in her two cents in, which I believe her IQ level is like more like half a penny, you know, again, that clip from David Axelrod that said, you know, the Democrats have essentially become the party of the elitist, disconnected, snooty, even if you will, that doesn't identify with the working men and women. Is that it? Was this the major reason, like that they decided to fuck everything up at the same time and in such a fashion that Donald Trump could come and say, listen, we've been telling you for a decade that you were the forgotten man and woman. Now they're trying to erase you forever. If you come with me, we're going to make it. If you don't, I can't guarantee you the next four years are going to look like. What do you think? Come with me if you want to live. I'm only because someone commented in one of our show posts this week that they miss us talking about stealing the decoration of independence and really bad impersonations. Am I going to allow you to leave it at that? And before we jump in with Brother Stone, I've got one more brief clip. Again, we're talking about him living his best life. It's Joe Biden up in Delaware. No, I don't know if you heard about this, but he's got a little meeting scheduled for tomorrow. I'm going to show you about what he's doing. Sounds like a no. They asked if Donald Trump was still a threat to democracy. He stopped. He turned. He smiled and he goes, I don't know. I'm meeting with him Wednesday. Then it gets in his car. Can you say I don't know? Yeah. I didn't catch that part of it. It's not. He looked and was silent and then I'm going to see him on Wednesday. Tomorrow? No, that's pretty good. It's more of like a tradition and it's pretty standard practice for in and out going administrations. But Joe Biden will have a closed door lunch with Donald Trump and his team tomorrow up at the White House. What do you think about that, Noah? I saw somebody did a meme and it was, you know, how they thought that that meeting was going to go and it was the Thor and Star Lord on the deck of the ship. They're a spaceship like who's in charge here. We will not be doing that because I'm in charge while you're talking about me. It's good. No. Listen, I think Kamala is going to be there. Maybe in her standard seat under the table. They could like tell Kamala that Trump canceled and that he needed to see her in the eatery and then she walks in and they're all, they're like, got him, got him. So yeah, it'd be a good punct. But yeah, we'll have to see what happens. Joe Biden will be in there and she'll be like, all right, bitch. Yep. Yep. So she hates her. They all hate each other. That's the best part about it right now. You know, as people are looking for a lot of different things within what went wrong last week, the one thing I think at least their constituents are looking for is leadership. And right now with the knives out and the blame game going on and obviously Joe Biden is still occupying the Oval Office in some context or other for the next, well, 69 days, we're just going to have to see where this all shakes out and we'll leave it at that as we're getting ready to jump in with Roger Stone.

He's a host of a show that bears his name as amongst many other things that he's done for conservative politics. We also consider him the best dressed man in the America first movement. Of course, we're talking about the infamous Roger Stone. Welcome back to the show. Good to be back with you. Where are the stakes? Where are the eggs? That's what I want to know.

You want two Tomahawks. You name it. It's all yours. But listen, we do have to talk about the victorious week we had last week. I mean, the dust is still settling from the enormous historic landslide mandated win that Donald Trump had. We also, you know, achieved the big three, something that a lot of people were nervous about, but we were able to retain the House of Representatives and flip the Senate back into Republican control, essentially streamlining the America first agenda up in Washington, DC. Roger, you have been with Donald Trump since before he came down the Golden Escalator. You know everything about this man. You saw the race that he ran, the stuff that him and his family have had to endure, and how he finished, you know, this historic event in the presidential election win. Just kind of want a little bit of back in commentary before we get into any of the items or topics I want to talk with you about today. Well, first of all, I think that this victory is an incredible testimony to the persistence and the resilience and the courage and the strength and the stamina of Donald Trump. I mean, just think for a minute of the stress of sitting there knowing that in the next 24 to 48 hours, you're going to know whether you're going to die in a dank Georgia prison having been railroaded through the DC court system, you're going to lose everything you have, your reputation is going to be ruined, they're going to take every penny from you, or you're going to have an opportunity to go down as one of the greatest presidents countries ever had, along with Washington and Lincoln and Eisenhower and other giants. Eisenhower, by the way, much underrated, one of our greatest presidents, because he wasn't flashy, he didn't get the credit for it, but unprecedented peace and prosperity under Ike. Donald Trump is now not having to ever face reelection again, I think is we're going to go into a golden age for America, a golden age of prosperity, a piece of opportunity, an era in which we have affordable housing again, where we have job opportunities again, where we have good schools again, where we have safe neighborhoods again, it's sweeping in its historic nature, no one else could have done this, you know, Pierce Morgan, who I didn't like an interview he did with Donald Trump, I think he kind of sandbagged him. After that, his producers asked me for two years to come on, and I just kept declining because I didn't like what they did to Trump, and then on election day, I ultimately agreed to go back on. It was perfectly civil, it was kind of entertaining, I'm much better dressed than he is, of course. But in the end of the day, what I said there is, here's what you don't understand, Donald Trump is a lion, he has the courage of a lion, and he beat back these hyenas who were nipping at his heels, and the numbers speak for themselves, I mean, record inroads among African Americans, record inroads among Hispanic voters, record inroads among Asian voters, among older voters, younger voters, particularly. So this wasn't close, it was a sweeping mandate, it is a repudiation of Joe Biden and his presidency, is particularly a repudiation of Kamala Harris, who proved that she never was qualified to be president in terms of her intellectual capacity and experience from the beginning. Yeah, no, that's a perfect way to look at it right there, and when you look at the job that Donald Trump was able to do, you talked about that mandate, that's the incredible popular victory as well, something that very few people outside of his inner circle really saw materializing on election night, obviously, we here on the show yourself had been someone that said it was absolutely definitely in the parameters of being able to happen, and it did. You know, Roger, I just want to ask you, you know, you see the end of the selection cycle right now, and I went down a YouTube rabbit hole recently, and during that I was watching some of the final speeches in the reelection campaign for Richard Nixon. We know that you had a close working relationship with the former president who will go down in history, I think it will eventually reflect that he was one of the best, he was Trump asked before it was, you know, time to be like Donald Trump asking the way he fought against the deep state and the media and the things he had to endure with the law fair and things of that nature. But even some of his speeches leading up to election day, they sounded so much like some of the material that Donald Trump had used because the situations were the same. He was being waged against in law fair. He did have the deep state and the agencies in a shadow context going after them. They were trying to change public opinion with stories that were just completely untrue and, you know, making it seem like you said he could spend the rest of his life in a jail cell, or he could be getting elected and heading back to the White House and in an historic fashion. How did you see, you know, the way this race ended and how much did it might have stokes of memories in regards to the time when Richard Nixon won his historic victory for his reelection campaign? Well, I think this is without any question the greatest single comeback in American history, and before Donald Trump, the band who held that title was Richard Nixon. So an election night got my vodka martini very dry, a couple of blue cheese olives, I've got my my Patriots cigars, love it, go to mypatries cigars.com use promo code stone. These are luxury tobacco at luxury tobacco at an absolute reasonable price, the best. I'm just savoring victory and I'm thinking to myself, wow, somewhere Richard Nixon's looking down from heaven and he's smiling. So you're absolutely right. You have a situation where like Nixon had the grit to survive. Had we had an internet in 1973, 1974, Nixon would have survived the problem for him was there was no alternative media shows like this, from which he could count launch a counter offensive. So he was destroyed by a monolithic mainstream media bent on his destruction, even when he tried to defend himself, remember famously when he said, you know, they say, I'm a crook. Well, I'm not a crook. They turned that around on him trying to make a joke out of it. And I think he would have survived if we had the internet then and like Trump, like Nixon, Trump is a survivor. I mean, he's just a he's a warrior. He never gave up. People asked me, why do you have a tattoo of Nixon on your back? Is this just to piss people off and it does piss the liberals off? But no, it's there as a constant reminder that in life, when you get knocked down, when you suffer some defeats, when you're disappointed, when sadness comes, that's the time you got to get up off the mat and get back into the game. He was a fighter. It's an American story, it's a story of persistence and resilience, but it is exactly the same with Donald Trump, only more so. Yeah, I work for Nixon, but if you want to ask me which one of those was tougher, Trump is tougher. I mean, to go through what he went through, where they're trying to they're trying to bankrupt you on a completely fictitious legal case, they are trying to put you in jail, but they can't even identify the crime that you're you're allegedly guilty of to try to run a reelection campaign with that backdrop, those two acts of election interference and to come out victorious with the mainstream fake news media against you the whole time. It's really a testimony to the man's strength and his his prowess as a warrior. No, it certainly is and it's key. He's gotten a mandate. He's also done the things that he needed to do to help electorially the the house retain their majority and the Senate to be flipped into Republican control. Roger, how much of a burden falls on them now? You know, it's been pretty dysfunctional up there in Capitol Hill for so long and you've got a, you know, probably a handful or a little bit more of people who are really invested in getting this country back on the right track and working in the way that it should. But a lot of them have kind of trickled up into leadership positions over the last couple of sessions and are looking to, you know, get the next Congress running in a fashion that gets legislation passed from one chamber to the other and as fast the president and Trump's desk as possible when you see, you know, the way Congress was this session would not have in the presidency or the Senate as well. Do you feel a little bit more optimistic that you're going to be able to get the job done here or is it going to take president and Trump to kind of give them a little bit of nudge to get things going once we hit January of next year? Well, first of all, I'd like to see the final margins in the house because that's not clear. We could, since there's a number of Republicans leaving the Congress to join the administration, if we assume that we hold all those seats, and I think we probably will, although I'm not certain, and we also see who the Senate leadership is. Now, John Thune back in 2016, when NBC and a member of the Bush family dropped the famous, you know, the famous grab them by the right, but he publicly tweeted that Trump needed to withdraw from the race and that the party needed to designate Mike Pence as our presidential candidate. That is not the man that I want leading the US Senate. It is not the man who I think will be loyal to Trump's agenda. So I feel very strongly that Rick Scott, who's like Donald Trump and outsider, came from the business world, not from the political world, I've had a few disagreements with Rick Scott on an issue here or there, but overall, he was an excellent governor, much better governor than the one we have now. Correct. And he's been a great US senator, and he had the courage to endorse Donald Trump over his own state governor. So I think Rick Scott is the man we need in the Senate. I hope we get him. I hope President Trump will do whatever is necessary to ensure that he's the new leader. Now, by tradition, you know, this is a, this is a Senate internal decision, and they're very insular. It's a shame that they have secret ballots because you think they'd have the guts to show where they really stand, but, you know, we are talking about politicians here, but I hope in the end that we get Rick Scott, and then it's up to Speaker Johnson. If he wants to remain Speaker, he's going to have to deliver. My favorite here is quite simple. We need a special committee to investigate the January 6 committee investigation because Adam Schiff and Liz Cheney and other members that committee broke the law. They suburban perjury, they created evidence using AI, they suppressed some testimonies while they basically cooked others. These people engaged in illegal activity, certainly activities that violate the rules of the House. So let's take Zoh Loffgren from California. If you can sober her up long enough, I think she should be called for a investigative committee. She should be given a subpoena and she should have to answer questions about what she did. That's a good point. I know Donald Trump has already worked behind the scenes extensively getting stuff together around the January 6 narrative investigations as part of it, but getting a lot of these people that went to jail over have been just abused by the legal system as another component that he's looking to tackle as part of his first, you know, portion of the agenda once he gets back into office as well. Roger, I do want to talk to you about a couple of the hires that are coming in here. You know, we've seen some -- I mean, Susie Wiles was elevated to White House Chief of Staff, obviously, his historic pick, and one that was well deserved after we saw how the end of this race shaped out. You know, you got people that's been running alongside Donald Trump for a long time, making some inroads with Democrats and blue states, much like he did in this election, like Lee Zeldin, being appointed to the Chief of the EPA. And then when you look at things related to the border, I mean conservatives ran with the borders are narrative throughout the course of this election cycle, but we are actually going to have one in the next Trump administration in regards to big Tom Holman. So when you see some of the pieces that are starting to come together, how does it look for you? It seems like a lot of the people that were out there, you know, at the rallies all the way back from 2022 and up leading to this election, are the people that are going to be critical components of this upcoming administration? Well, I'm a big fan of Susie Wiles of under 30 years. People -- you know, there's a lot of disinformation about her on the internet really aggravates me. She's an outsider. And everybody else was going for George H.W. Bush. She and I were working for Jack Kemp for president. When she could have gone to work for George H.W. Bush, she worked for Ronald Reagan for president. In 2016, she could have gone to work for Marco Rubio or Jeb Bush, but she chose to work for Donald Trump for president. So no, she's not a member of the World Economic Forum. That's ridiculous. Correct. She's never been a lobbyist for Pfizer or any other pharmaceutical company. Ironically, it was over a year ago, she's the one who sent me the book by Callie Means about how the big food processors are poisoning us and how we need to change our diet. This was long before we even had our first discussion about Robert F. Kennedy. She said, "Here's a book you really need to read." And I changed my diet based on that book. So she is the tough, disciplined leader that we need. Now Donald Trump is hard to work for because he's his own man, he's a wild animal, he's a free spirit, he does things his way. The people just elected him to do things his way. He's not a politician, you see. So she's done a very tough job to try to carry out his will and to maintain order and discipline. But she showed that she could do it in the campaign, greatest presidential campaign in American history without any question. She's already proven her ability to understand her boss and carry out his wishes. It's a great, great appointment. It is exactly the right person for the job. Tom Holman, I can't say enough good about, I mean the guy's tough as nails, he started out as a patrol border agent himself, rose through the ranks, did a great job. The illegal crossings under Donald Trump have trickled down to almost nothing. And he is the man to lead the mass deportations. Let's start with the criminals, okay? Let's start with those people who are in the country illegally but who have criminal records. That's where I'd like to begin. Tom Holman is absolutely the right man for the job. Very, very happy with that appointment. No, they should be great. And then, you know, what about your close friend Tulsi Gabbard? She's yet to be appointed to anything yet. There's a lot of rumors and speculations going around. There was a lot of people who were very excited to not only see her jump over to the Republican party but the way she supported President Trump down the stretch here. I mean, I can't wait to see what, you know, role or task she's going to fill in this upcoming administration because, you know, when you look at the things that are going on with the forever wars that have spun out of control under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, the way our long-standing geopolitical flows or at least non-allies have not respected this country since Donald Trump left office. And the way that's kind of had a trickle-down effect on all the other things here from the open borders to, you know, the tanked economy, things that are going to be looking to get back on track as well, it seems like Tulsi would be a critical cog in the machine that's going to help get everything spinning in the right direction again. Look, I would say that Tulsi Gabbard has no bigger fan than me, I mean, I've seen a lot of politicians, I don't fanboy for many people, but she's got it, she's one of the most dynamic communicators I've seen in American politics, she's deeply principled, she left the Democrat party not out of expediency but out of principle. The party he joined 20 years ago has become the party of war and censorship and death. And I was delighted by her decision to become Republican. I'd like to see her end up, you know, in a high-level position, maybe national director of intelligence or defense secretary. I mean, anything Tulsi Gabbard takes her mind to, she'll do a great job. I actually think other than Donald Trump and JD Vance, there's nobody who worked harder for this ticket out every day, day after day, doing rallies with the president, doing rallies with RFK, doing events on her own, she turned her whole life over to the campaign. I think she's proven herself, I'm very hopeful that she will get a high-level appointment here to serve the country because whenever she does, she will do it in the most able fashion. No, I can't agree with you more. And I think we're going to leave it at that, Roger. This has been great catching up with you today, getting things started with our interviews. As it always is, I mean, you know, people say that you're an insider, but I like the way that you kind of give a personal perspective on it, both from experience and the way that you know these people. I think it puts a little bit more of a human touch on just the standard interview hits. And we can't appreciate more when you take some time out of your really busy schedule to come and join us here on the show. Listen, as always, we've got everything live linked in the show description today, a link to your rumble channel, so they can check out your podcast, also the WABC link, so they can check out your weekend show. Of course, your sub-stack's going to be linked as well. Where can we find you on social media? I'm on X as Roger J. Stone Jr., Roger J. Stone Jr., I'm verified there, please follow me there. I'm also on Two Social at Real Roger Stone. Now, there's a bunch of Roger Stones on Facebook. None of them are me. I'm being for life on Facebook. If I set a profile tomorrow, it would be show it shut down like that. So don't buy any crypto from the Roger Stones on Facebook. That's not me, folks. None of them are me. I'm also, of course, banned for life on Instagram. Now when they banned, they never actually even sent me a communication saying your band and ears wide. I just woke up one day and my profile was completely gone. Of course, I'm not on TikTok because, well, I don't want the red Chinese to have everything that's in my telephone. So the best place to follow me is X where I'm Roger J. Stone Jr., Roger J. Stone Jr., were added to social at Real Roger Stone. Well, you didn't try to sell us any Bitcoin today, but you did bring the absolute fire and furies. The Stone Cold truth, as he always does when he joins us here on the show, this is the man, the myth, the legend, Mr. Roger Stone. Thanks for joining us on the show today, sir. Have a great rest of your week. Great to be with you, many thanks. If you're the Democrats, what are you going to do for the next two years? How do we do? Therapy. Therapy. We're all going to therapy. Why are we here? If you're a Democrat, all we can say is, we hope that Susie decides that she's going to take a long vacation, that they hire some terrible people and make some mistakes to give us a chance. Right now, they have everything. They got the Supreme Court, they got the Electoral College, they got the House, they probably got the Senate, they got the popular vote, and we're just sitting here with the dunce cap on. Last week, we thought we were the smartest people in the world. We thought Donald Trump was an idiot. We thought his campaign made no sense, and it turned out they were smarter than us. And we don't have anything to say to you. I can sit here and pretend I know something. Here's what I know. Everybody I know is miserable, everybody's on these Zoom calls, nobody's got any good ideas, and we're going to take us a while to figure this out. I'm not good at coming here and faking to pretend it's like, no, we got what? Man, you're going to have to go to the spa, you need a massage and a cucumber water. I agree. And a cookie. That's right. All right. Jump back into the news portion of the show here, second news segment on the first of two big Tuesday editions of the State for Records podcast. I'm Ro Noah still here with me. You know, always great catching up with Roger Stone. Noah, so much insight on someone that, you know, it's not just knowing it all about what's going on inside America first, but his deep-seated relationship, his personal relationship with Donald Trump and relationships that he has with other people that are going to be working in the administration like Tulsi Gabbard really gives our listenerships a little bit more of a longer form insight into what's going on and paying a little bit of a clear picture. Of what the future holds. What do you think? Oh, yeah. Roger Stone. I want that guy on weekly, I think, at this point. Yeah. Well, we're getting it bi-weekly at this point. They actually sent us a nice little text message just a minute ago that said they absolutely love coming on the show. And we'll be looking to continue to bring in the news with him as much as we can. Someone that a lot of people are wondering if it's going to be involved in the upcoming administration or not, and that's Vivek Ramaswami. So again, from what we've heard was they were initially looking at Vivek to be the head of the Department of Homeland Security. We obviously know that didn't materialize because Christie Gnome was named, or at least her name was floated out there as going to be the potential head of DHS overnight last night. Now, what we've also heard is that there's a way that 2026 is going to open up the door for who's going to be running for president in 2028. And the way people will look at maybe how if let's just say Vivek worked in the administration and then left to announce his candidacy for president halfway through how America first would receive that. So even though for the past couple of months, he's received a lot of intense policy training on all things related to the border. And again, our evidence to that is when you look at a lot of the hits that he's provided, if he's not just talking about this being like a 1776 constitutional founding father's moment, he's talking directly about stuff related to the border. It seems like every time someone's brought him on a show, that's been his specialty. So I tend to believe that the information that I have regarding that situation is correct. Also, his team and he are looking more into the state of Ohio and the soon to be open Senate seat that is currently manned by now soon to be vice president JD Vance, and how much, I guess, how much less of a problem it would be to maybe announce a potential 2028 run from let's just say a Republican Senate seat than it would be as a cabinet member within the Trump administration and how people would take it. I don't know if that's going to work out for him. I don't even know if that's 100% of the story, but the way things are shaking out right now, it looks like what we've been told and how we've been, I guess, asked to lay it out there seems to be coming to truth in real time. So we're going to roll with this. But he was on ABC News, ABC fake news this week, and he did part of the Sunday morning news circuit. I still a Trump campaign surrogate, and well, much like I had just opined on, he was talking about border security. Let's hear it. Obviously, Trump's promised, and you've talked a lot about this, the, you know, a mass deportation of undocumented immigrants, first of all, do you really think that we're going to see him round up and deport upwards of 11, sometimes he's put the numbers high as 20 million people out of the United States? Is that really going to happen? Donald Trump's campaign promise was the largest mass deportation in American history. Okay. And he's going to keep that promise. And I'll tell you, let's just start very pragmatically here. I think most Americans agree with this. You take the number of people who have entered the country just in the last 18 to 24 months. That's millions of undocumented immigrants, illegal migrants, who have really no place in this country, anybody who's committed a crime, automatically, that already is the largest mass deportation in American history. Now take that to the next level, not an Iota, not a center of government spending should go to subsidize this, not to sanctuary cities, not to federal aid to people who are in this country illegally, and we're going to see a large number by the millions of self deportations as well. And so these are pragmatic places to start that would give us, yes, the largest mass deportation in American history. We fall far short of 11 million or more. We're going to go step by step aggressively. Donald Trump's going to stay true to his campaign pledge, but in a way that respects the dignity of the Americans who are already here. Okay. And I do think it's offensive to use when we have $34 trillion of national debt, government funds to subsidize this type of illegal migration. That's half the problem. And if any illegal migrant is no longer a customer of the welfare state, you're going to see self deportations. Let me combine with deportations of those. Let me ask you though. Now, no, it sounds like he's brushed up a little bit on his Homeland Security type policies, don't you think? Yeah. Ready to rock. And again, I don't want to not appreciate who like let's just put in the if I was building a fantasy football team following this election, obviously Donald Trump would be locked in as my QB one, right? I think we could all agree with that JD Vance wide receiver one, as I was going down the roster and making my team up, I think if you're looking on a week by week basis of someone who could really move the needle and on weeks where maybe your defense or your kicker or let's just say in a game where rushing the football isn't really a thing anymore, you'd want that flex player to overperform. And that's literally where I would have the VEC. I think for the country, it would be a lot more beneficial if the VEC Ramaswami was part of this administration. I do get and respect the fact that he has aspirations due to his youthful age nature, the way that he kind of resonated and become a fan favorite on the campaign trail, especially after he abandoned his campaign and got behind Donald Trump and America first. But here's the thing, you've seen it with people who others have said is the perfect candidate for president before, you know, everyone from Scott Walker back in 2015 to any of the 17 that ran against Donald Trump, the first time he won the White House, all the way up through last election cycle that just concluded, which included candidates like Ron DeSantis and how much, you know, once America really got to know him, they actually hated his guts. Yeah, that did not go well for him. No. I'm surprised he's able to maintain any semblance of public career wishes or aspirations. And we're going to see what's going to happen now as he's going to be tasked with filling. It's his job to fill the Senate seat that's going to be vacated by Marco Rubio. Will he put in someone that's a Trump loyalist in America first, maybe even elevating someone to the upper chamber like Florida Congressman Byron Donald's, which we feel who would be a fantastic senator or not. So we'll have to see what happens there. But I mean, again, again, in the case of a background of Swami and my angle into this audio clip that we just listened to is his potential role in the Senate in this upcoming session. We'll have to see what Governor DeWine in the state of Ohio has to say about that. There are reports out that he is open to fill in that seat with the Vivek. But just understand, if you don't see him pick up a cabinet level position or an agency head in the Trump administration and instead, it doesn't matter how anyone spins it. The only reason he's going to go and eventually get that Senate seat there is because he's going to try to break early and ahead of JD Vance in announcing his candidacy to run for president probably in late 2026. So we'll keep an eye on it and see what happens. But Senate Republicans have a little bit of work to do before they can actually get to work for the American people. And that comes with the selection of the new Senate Majority Leader as Mitch McConnell has relinquished that role and will be fading off into the sunset vapor locking here, there along the way. Now Noah, we don't like the way things go on with these leadership and committee chair appointments in the Senate, much like in the House, secret ballot behind closed doors and it's against standard practice to go out and talk about who you voted for following the election of a new leader or committee chair appointments, et cetera. So as you see the three candidates, and I mean, one's not even serious, John Cornyn, I think he has like one person that's surprisingly Josh Hawley behind him. I don't know what the deal is with that. But then, you know, someone who is a student in an underling of Mitch McConnell for many years, John Thune looks like he's got an overwhelming majority of the people who have publicly gone out and said they supported him behind him. And then you have Rick Scott, the former Florida governor, turned Senator who stood with Donald Trump, pretty much shoulder to shoulder through all of the ups and downs, including that of his first presidency, et cetera. What do you think about the way that this practice goes? And why shouldn't Donald Trump be able to weigh in and therefore influence this election to get someone that he's, you know, a little bit more comfortable working with than someone who may be wanting to set up roadblocks in the same way we saw Speaker Ryan did back in 2016? Well, I don't think it's unreasonable for the guy that's coming into office to want people underneath him that aren't going to be sabotaging him every step of the way, like the last administration or the last his administration did. Elon Musk has made a huge pitch online for Florida Senator Rick Scott. Donald Trump put out a post on X over the weekend and this talk directly to the matter at hand, which is the upcoming vote for Senate majority, which is going to take place tomorrow, which is Wednesday. So by tomorrow evening, we'll know who the Senate majority leader is going to be. But here's Donald Trump on true social and X. Any Republican senator seeking the coveted leadership position in the United States Senate must agree to recess appointments in the Senate, without which we will not be able to get people confirmed in in a timely manner. Sometimes the votes can take up to two years or more. This is what they did four years ago and we cannot let it happen again. We need positions filled immediately. Additionally, no judges should be approved during this period of time because the Democrats are looking to ramp through their judges as Republicans fight over leadership. Now we switch to all caps. This is not acceptable. Thank you. I know. But again, as we're getting to re-familiarize ourselves with Rick Scott and not just someone who comes on and talks about Chuck Schumer being a pain in the ass and a Senate majority leader of this session, et cetera, let's hear a little bit about the man. Well, here's him jumping on. I believe this was Fox News yesterday talking about coming out of this election, the mandate that Donald Trump is getting returned to Washington, D.C. with and what it means to have a solid leadership in both the upper and lower chambers to support him in that. Let's check it out. Here's where I bring to the table. I clearly believe in the Trump agenda, number one. I'm a business guy that has success doing exactly what we need to do in the Senate. We need to have a plan. We need to work a plan. We need to have a team. We need to measure ourselves. If we want to get all the nominees done, we've got to figure out plan to get it done. If we want to get a balanced budget, we've got to start today to get a balanced budget. If we want to get the borders secure, if we want to get whatever policies we have to get through through Congress, we have to have a plan just like what you do in business. I ran a company with 285,000 employees. We had a written plan for everything to get it done. My colleagues have told me they want change, they want to be treated as equal, they want to be part of a team, they want to have an agenda, they want to have a great relationship with the House. They know I have a great relationship with Speaker Mike Johnson, so I'm very optimistic that I'm going to win because I'm representing Trump's agenda and what my colleagues want. Here's the thing, and I'm going outside of just what the obvious is, that if you put a pair of welding goggles on Florida Senator Rick Scott, he would literally be the Dr. Frankenstein type character from the nightmare before Christmas. I mean, spot on. Welding goggles and rubber gloves, it's him 100%. I would never be anything else for Halloween and everybody would love it. But he makes a great point there, talking on the fact that the American public's in Donald Trump. Listen, people who are deeply connected to the establishment like John Thune have a lot of lobbyists given him pressure because Donald Trump wants to end forever wars. The military industrial complex is going to come calling. RFK Junior, Donald Trump says he's going to let him go wild on everything to do with the bio pharmaceutical industrial complex. They're all going to be calling, slow down this legislation, send this legislation back and make them take this, that out of it, add this to it, deregulations. For as much money as we can make in this country with energy production, the regulations also allow for the people who provide oversight on that to make just as much money when we're not producing it. They're going to be crying and coping and seething aspects of the trade community and what Donald Trump wants to do to rework some of these deals and implement things like taxes and tariffs everywhere. So you're going to have every single major lobbying group and billionaire industrial complex from around the world, descending on Washington DC and trying to slow down the America First Agenda. So why would you have somebody so deeply connected to China? So deeply connected to all of these different industrial complexies leading the Senate? Who knows? I've been asking and I've been finding that a lot of people are saying come to terms with Senate Majority Leader Thune. I'm going to tell you if that's what happens. Just assume that the loyalty slate is wiped clean and we start keeping score as of tomorrow once the vote happens and that's the best advice I could give you.

Let's take for breakfast. Let's check out Senator Scott last night on Boomer Sweats, Sean Hannity, as if he couldn't frame it nicely enough for the morning show, Sean Hannity wants to get all the boomers riled up and calling their senatorial offices ahead of this vote. Let's hear it. I'm supporting you. You have a lot of other people supporting you. Tell us why you should get that job. Well, first, thank you for your support. I'm a business guy, successful business guys get things done. I want the Donald Trump agenda implemented. I want his nominees confirmed as quickly as we can get those nominees confirmed so we can get to work. He's got great nominees. I hope it's true about Marco Rubio, my friend's going to be Secretary of State. I hope that's all true. We've got to get his agenda done. We're going to be able to do something through reconciliation, everything we can do. We need to maximize everything we can do to help Donald Trump get his agenda done. We had a great Tuesday, we had a great Tuesday. We could all be way more exciting. But if we don't have the right leader in the Senate, then what's going to happen is all the things that Donald Trump wants to do is going to get bogged down, not going to happen. Nominees won't get done so I am absolutely committed to do whatever it takes to get his nominees confirmed and get his agenda passed. You got the big Sean Hannity endorsement like that fucking matters. No, but here's the thing, you know, he's not a little drunk. Yeah. Rick Scott, he talks like he has social anxiety, but I'll be honest with you, outside of like some stupid ass shit years ago when he was the governor where again, it's the lobby group influence where they were like doing that kind of like pseudo red flag law in Florida. Everything else he pretty much has done is lined up with the America First agenda. Again, you're not going to like every single person that's nominated for every single position every single time. Well, and if he's the best person for the choices that we have, then we got to fucking jump on it. Again, this is like when Count Dooku got switched out for Anakin Skywalker, if we let John Thune replace Mitch McConnell, just so just understand what you're getting. And you know, again, if you're looking for what the first headaches of what President Trump's transition to the White House and the coming administration looks like, this will be it and we'll find out tomorrow exactly what's going to happen. One of our great friends of the show, someone who's going to be making a return hopefully in the next couple of weeks here, the coach, Tommy Tuberville, jumped on with the Botox Queen, a Laura Ingram last night on Fox News to talk about the mandate and the leadership battle, which is kind of spilled out and off of Capitol Hill and into the press. Let's hear it. We got a mandate last week for a change, not just as President of the United States, but we have no time. As you just said, we have no time to spare. We have to get somebody that's different than what we've had. You know, we have like a 20% approval rating in the Senate and we're not a rolling ball of butcher knives. And so we've got to have somebody with different strategies, different ideas, different communication skills, give us a chance to do something different like President Trump's going to do. He needs somebody to work with, Rick Scott knows him. He's a business guy. He's been out there. He's done. He's signed checks before. He understands the business world like President Trump, they can communicate. That's the reason I'm voting for Rick Scott. And that's great. Too reasonable. No, you wouldn't consider us a rolling ball of knives here on the show? A rolling ball of butcher knives. I would like to see that. I could only imagine. I mean, the Trump campaign is, if you're going to go out in a lemon, make a... A connotation of... I like it. Flightsing through everything. I was trying to choose my words carefully there. There you go. Speaking of which, just imagine when coach Tuberville's halftime speech is like down three points or tied game at Alabama. You guys are both ranked in the top 10 again, he beat Alabama six consecutive years in a row, something that will never be replicated again from either side of that rivalry. But that's neither here nor there. He's more focused in on what the vote's going to look like tomorrow and why the vote should go either way. It's put out, punitively, by people like Senator Tuberville, but in a little bit more comical fashion like others, namely, Louisiana Senator John Kennedy, let's hear him. Well, there is an official-looking document floating around the Internet that supposedly says, "Here's how every Republican senator would vote and here's who he or she would vote for Senate Majority Leader." In an unprecedented act of selflessness, it has Senator Thune actually voting against himself and for Senator Cornyn. If you think this list is real or accurate, then you probably think that Elvis is alive and running a small bait stand on Lake Erie. We haven't even had a meeting yet to hear the formal proposals from the three nominees about how, if at all, they will run things differently than Senator McConnell. Here's what I know. We will pick a leader who will advance President Trump's agenda. We saw what everybody else saw on Tuesday night. Because despite what the so-called experts in Washington say, with their NPR tote bags and their organic broccoli, this was a really simple message from the people. Republicans aren't perfect, but the other side is crazy. President Trump is going to do things differently and we will pick a leader who will help him do that. That's a good point. Yeah. So we've gotten serious, we've gotten a little bit of the comical, but let's round it out here and conclude this segment, Noah, by bringing it back to a little bit of reality here as we're getting ready to jump in with Texas representative Pat Fallon as he's getting ready to take off to the airport and leave Texas for his return to Capitol Hill today. And that was from mornings with Maria yesterday. When I saw two of our great friends, I was texting with him in real time. He should be joining us for our Friday edition of the show. That's Florida Congressman Corey Mills always love when he comes on. Nice. But he was part of a three person panel, which included Florida Congresswoman Anna Pauline Aluna. I love how her make America great again. One piece has been making the rounds, even she shared it herself when she's doing her little butt wiggle after she won back her house last week. One that the media said was going to be heavily contested, but she won just as easy as it is on the eyes, very comfortably when it came to election night. Two plus two is always four, especially in the case of her. She put a little bit of a Star Wars spin on what's going on up in the Senate chamber. Let's hear it. The fact that these senators declined to come onto your show and Rick Scott was the only one here making the case to the American people. I think just goes to show that these people are going to indeed continue Mitch McConnell's direction and leadership for the Senate, which is simply unacceptable. We need strong leadership that won't repeat 2016 in block president Trump's agenda. That's why I've publicly come out to adore Senator Scott. But remember, the American people can make their voices heard. The senators answer to you. So phone your senator and let them know that you don't want the same Mitch McConnell leadership. We don't want the revenge of the Sith Lord here in the Senate. And I think that Rick Scott has a chance at winning this thing. So there you have it. Again, that list that came out online, which was widely shared by a lot of accounts, good job. Benny Johnson, good job. All the people from War Room and Charlie Kirk and all your other morons, which had Senator Thune voting for Senator Cornyn instead of himself for Senate Majority Leader. The numbers aren't final yet. Listen, are there more people that are probably backing Senator Thune right now than our Senator Scott? Yes. But with a grassroots phone initiative with emails that are coming in there and with a lot of the media asking, like, if Donald Trump has his mandate, why can't he get the people that he wants to work it for him? So those questions need to be answered and we'll find out the answer to those questions tomorrow evening, which we'll have a full recap of on our Friday edition of the podcast. We're going to leave it at that as we're getting ready to jump in with rep Fallon. But before we do, have another check in with one of our partners. I think it's time we had a conversation about a good night's sleep. Pillow King of Minnesota, Mike Lindell, and the apparatus known as the MyPillow family has been cranking out savings down at MyPillow for over 20 years. And for the first time in 20 years, they've changed the long-standing MyPillow, and now have the MyPillow version 2.0. You get a promo code to take a check out, you're going to get buy one, get one free. In addition to that, they've got great savings on all things like MyPillow Dogbeds, the Air Lindell version 1 and 2 My Slippers, and Giza Dream Everything. If you're more of a morning person, they've launched MyCoffee, it's available on the Bean, the Bag, and the Pod. If you need a promo code stake here, you're going to get 25% off your order, or 50% off when you make it a monthly subscription. MyPillow.com/stake for anything sleep-related. If you want the coffee, my store.com/stake, or you can always talk to a qualified pillow representative, 1-800-658-8045. All right, joining us on the show today, this big Tuesday edition of the State of Records podcast. He's the Congressman who represents Texas' fourth congressional district, and we're always glad to catch up with Representative Pat Fallon. Welcome back to the show. Well, thank you sir, I appreciate it. Here's a pleasure, and listen, we're on the heels of a big historic victory and a mandate given to Republicans across the country, stemming from last Tuesday when Donald Trump won the election. Obviously, the Republicans have been able to retain the House of Representatives, and we flipped the Senate back into Republican control. You parlay that into the way the Supreme Court bench is broken down right now. It seems like we're ready to get to work for the American people, but before we get started on any of the topics I want to talk with you about today, Congressman, I just want a little bit of back-end commentary on the way you saw the race break down, the end of President Trump's campaign, and what it looks like now a week after the historic, well, it turned out to be a landslide victory for America First. Oh yeah, it was incredible, you know, the fact of the matter was that the proof was in the pudding, and it was the results were really hidden in plain view, and I found it striking that no one really in the media was talking about it, and for the record, I went on the record on a local Dallas radio show and posted my predictions online on social media because I was struck by the differences in early voting returns, and let me give you an example. In North Carolina, in 2020, President Trump was down 260,000 votes out of early voting, and he still won the state, but he was down going into election day. This time, he was up 51,000, it was a stark difference. Same in Arizona, he was down 9,000, this time it was up 176,000, Nevada, he was down 45,000, now up 44,000, and it was a trend you saw across the battleground states, and in fact, in Texas, he had a 400,000 vote lead, and when I say that, I mean identifiable Republicans be identifiable Democrats, 400,000 grew to 920,000 this time, yep. That kind of trend doesn't stop at a state line, and even states that he lost, he lost by significantly larger margins, and I was just shocked that nobody in the media and how CNN and MSNBC are trying to explain it away, so yeah, it was a triumph for liberty, it was a triumph for a limited government, low taxes, reasonable regulation, and I think we're really going to start humming, but we have to do our work and deliver for the American people. We certainly do, and then, you know, when you see the popular vote victory, was that kind of a shocker to you, did you think that, you know, for as much as the Democrats pushed their social issues, their reproductive freedom, you know, if you don't vote for Kamala Harris last Tuesday, you might wake up on Wednesday morning, and America might not be here anymore, and then to see Donald Trump when such a solid, I believe it's going to be the most votes that a Republican candidate has ever gotten in the history of our electorate, and in addition to that, it's a wide margin compared when you look at the scoreboard between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris that, you know, they have, America has just gotten absolutely exhausted with the stuff that's being pushed on them, and that's outside of the issues we're going to talk about. I mean, we're not even into the economy and stuff yet, this is just some of the stuff that they ran on, which was demonizing Republicans and offering no plausible solutions to improve anybody's situation anywhere. Director democracy, I mean, the problem with their arguments were hurt, and they're, by the way, extraordinarily hyperbolic arguments, where he was already president for years. They were already a peaceful transfer of power, and they'll say January 6th, January 6th. They really tried to equate January 6th to 9/11. Yeah, they did. Again, false comparisons, I was there on January 6th. It was, you know, it got on a little, it got on a hand. It was a riot for, what, three, four, five hours, whereas they want to completely ignore the George Floyd riots that swept across scores of cities that actually did kill 25 people, that resulted in $2 billion worth of damages. So people are seeing that. They were, they're, most people on the far left there in this bubble, they talk to no one else, because they can't. Their religion is big government. Their religion is LBGTQ causes and such. And when they say, they'll accuse us of being anti, anti-LBGTQ. I was at when we're saying that we don't want children mutilated, we want parents notified if the schools or physicians want to operate on their children. We don't want men and women's sports, et cetera, et l. So, you know what, common sense prevails is, I think, in a nutshell what happened on Tuesday. No, definitely a big bring back to the middle, a broadening of the electorate. I mean, you saw Kamal Harris didn't do, she had no improvement in any county across the country compared to Joe Biden's election in 2020. In addition to that, you've seen so many people voting for the first time who have traditionally never voted Republican either, coming over and casting their vote for Donald Trump, and all of you guys have sent you back up to Capitol Hill with a mandate. So, you know, as they're in the transition period right now, in just 70 days before Donald Trump has sworn in, we're starting to see a little bit of Donald Trump's cabinet materializing Congressman, you saw the appointment, the historic Susie Wiles who was the, you know, the top person in his campaign, elevated to White House Chief of Staff last week, and then over the weekend, he announced that Tom Holman would be returning to serve in this next administration. He's a great friend of the show here to be, he's actually putting it out there. He will be a borders are, we will have one that's clearly defined, and he's got a clearly defined mission that's going to be starting on January 20th of next year. And you see the pics, you see the nominations and the ones that are getting floated in the media. We're also saying goodbye to some people like Mike Pompeo and Nikki Haley as well. It seems like Donald Trump's, he's got a team and he's putting it together and starting to look pretty solid already. Yeah, there's no doubt I think Tom Holman is actually going to wait for it and he's going to secure the board when people come across that board, he's going to say, we need to know who they are. And oh, by the way, board patrol agents, you can enforce the laws that are already on the book. And they're going to, they're morale, it's, I'm sure it's already stored, and it's going to have another, if things might come January 20th. So that's a great pick. I think the, the, his chief of staff, they worked very well together. They had an historic victory. We need more historic victories over the next four years. And then Elise Stefanik as the UN ambassador, I couldn't think of a better person. He is hyper impressive. He knows her, she knows the issues. She's very well-spoken, she's professional, she's dynamic. So, and, and she's a New Yorker and the UN happens to be in New York. So I just, I think it's, it's really a perfect fit. No, it is good. And when you look at some of the people who potentially serve in the last administration, you see names like Ambassador Grinnell, Cash Patel, lots of others who are going to come back and, you know, be looking to work in a greater context. It seems like we're going to have a solid team and everybody ready to go. Now, you know, when, when you see the leadership battles, I don't want to stay kind of heating up. But, you know, it's, it's part of the process that goes into returning back to the Hill after an election. Do you have any advice for your, you know, congressional counterparts in the upper chamber right now after, you know, listen, we all saw what happened in the last session with the speakership both times, getting Kevin McCarthy nominated, and then over the finish line the first time. And then when, you know, he was vacated and, and the chair was open, which led to the gavel being turned over to Mike Johnson. You know, President Trump obviously has a pick. He's trying not to be too political or, you know, put a stump on top of it. But, you know, you've seen the way it is up there. There's a very old garb and people that are loyal to Mitch McConnell, who were on their way out. And then there's a people who were more closely aligned to President Trump. Now, it seems like with the popular vote, with the mandate of the sweeping of all three in the election last week, it, the vote should favor President Trump. But as you're seeing this kind of shakeout in the media, how are you looking at it? Well, I think from the House perspective, I'll tell you that I thought Mike Johnson, given the very tight margins, the majority that we had at one point, we had a one-vote majority. Yep. And Republicans, you know, we're like hurting cats. We don't, we all think for ourselves, we're not lambs like the, the Democrats are, where they just all kind of follow the leader. We, we all need to have a say. And we're not, when I say cats, I'm not talking about a house cat, we're like, you know, big cats. There you go. The feral cat. I'm the saring. Yeah. Like, but the lion, but anyhow, I think Mike did a great job out of the circumstances. I'm a huge supporter of his, he's the most conservative speaker we've ever had. And this is what we play, this is what we play for is we needed to get into unified government on the Republican side. And if we had just taken a few moves the other way, we could have had unified government on the Democratic side. Sure. So fortunately, you know, President Trump and Mike Johnson work extraordinarily well together. They're very good friends. They're just a pot of co-ideologically. And so the house I think is in firm leadership hands right now with Mike Johnson, that speaker and Steve Scalise, the majority leader. And now we're really going to get humming and get things done because what we pass in the house can actually be taken up in the Senate. And I know they have a filibuster, so some things will die. But when it's fiscal issues, we can pass it through reconciliation in the Senate. So on the Senate side, as far as leadership goes, it's a different chamber and it might as well be a different world, even though it's in the same building. Right. Well, from what I hear from the Republican senators, there seems to be a consensus that Senator Thune from South Dakota will become the majority leader. Who knows? I'm a big fan of Rick Scott's, but I don't have a vote in that chamber. So we'll see how it goes. And I look forward to working with whoever becomes the majority of the door over there. But I know John Cornyn from Texas is running for it. I just haven't heard anybody think that he's got a viable pound. No. Same here. And it's interesting to see how it plays out. There's always got to be a little drama when it comes to Congress. But we're kind of in the same delegation as you. We got a horse in this race, but we just don't have a vote in this fight. So we'll see how it shakes out when they go into their, into the closed doors and have the vote tomorrow. Now, I do want to touch with you on a couple of issues. Some of the major ones we've talked with you here on the show before, listen, you're a big guy that's dialed into all the things geopolitically for our country. You've been pointing out for years now how under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, this nation has lost its footing geopolitically from a leadership standpoint, especially we've seen wars spin out of control. We've seen terrorists entities freely operate and invade some of our closest historical allies. You know, we've, we've seen the manipulation of everything from currency and the money markets all the way down to, you know, you name it, just trade and how that all affects the global economy as well across the planet. It already seems like a lot of America's geopolitical foes and just ones who kind of stay in the gray, but it, but at the same time, you know, or have been historically a thorn in our side, coming back to getting in line and, and don't really want the smoke from Donald Trump once he gets inaugurated on January 20th because we know he's got a lot of different ways that to operate and handle the people who like to play games with the United States. But the fact of the matter is Donald Trump does whatever he's doing for a position to strengthen. So as you saw some of the people openly coming out and saying, Oh, maybe we do need to bring this conflict to an end. Maybe we do need to go back to the negotiation table. Maybe we do need to get on the same page economically happened over the course of the last week. How were you sharing? Is it that it seems like, you know, American leadership is on its way to be in back in the world right now? Oh, you can't really understate it, to be honest, and that was very well said. Oh, no, I mean, President Trump's going to project power. He did it for four years and the problem is in the pudding. I mean, the fact that Vladimir Putin invaded you, not only full-scale invasion Ukraine under Biden, but he took Crimea and medals in Eastern Ukraine under Obama and even hit Georgia and stole a couple of provinces down there. Yeah. But under President Trump, he can do squat, no new adventures for four years because he knew he wasn't going to put up with it. They had a working relationship and they were some respect that there's also fear on Putin's end because President Trump projects power, not only hard power, but soft power as well. He told me personally, he told Putin, Look, if you invade Ukraine, I will unleash the American energy sector in such a degree and natural gas and oil are global commodities, you will depress the price and you can't fund your war. Putin was in line. I think what President Trump will do vis-a-vis Ukraine in Russia is he's going to go to the table. He's going to look at Putin. He's going to take a look. The American left wants to continue to fight you and half the American right does. So if I say that we got to fight you, everybody's going to be on board and the American unified, but look, glad we want this war to end. And I think he's going to give him some out. Sure. The Ukrainian territory that's occupied now will have to go back to Ukrainian hands probably recognize Crimea as part of Russia. It's a part of the Don Bass and Lou Hans will have to be recognized. That's an unfortunate thing, but let's end this war and let's get Ukraine, let's fast track, help them fast track EU membership and get them some IMF loans, EU needs to step up there, et cetera, and they need some security assurances, the real ones this time, from us and the EU and from Russia, although those don't really not too much. And then you'll have the war ends because it's going to be a lot less expensive for the United States. It's in our best interest, same with Russia, quite frankly, and most of all, Ukraine. So I think you're going to see an end of the war in the next year too. For as much money as we've poured into that conflict as well, I really do hope we get an overwhelming majority of the rebuilding contracts there. And don't just let China come in as they do and is often the case to come in and take in on it's going to be over a quarter of a trillion, if not more, American dollars and equipment and supplies into that conflict that we're going to have to get some kind of a repayment back on. And I do hope that we get some of the rebuilding contracts there. And I think a businessman like Donald Trump is going to go in understanding when he's talking to the Ukrainian government, like, hey, listen, everybody's going to come in and want to help fix the aftermath of what's going on here, but we need to have American workers in there fixing it as well. That's a really good point. I think that's got to be part of the deal with the Ukrainian, just try to get squat. They didn't help you. They hurt you. Absolutely not. They're not getting any of these rebuilding contracts at all. They're shut out. Yeah. No, it's an angle that I've been looking at. And one that I've been kind of sounding the alarm on for the last couple of years because I see the way that they've got, you know, they did the same thing going through Europe after COVID. Everything was shut down and they went and got a whole bunch of the contracts as, you know, the world kind of reopened back up all over Latin and South America, but throughout mainland Europe as well. And it's just interesting to see the way that they operate, but I mean, we all know it. You guys know it up on Capitol Hill as well. And then last thing I want to touch with you on Congress, we let in a little bit talking about Tom Holman, but then again, we know this border is getting shut down. It's going to be safe and secure again. The amount of people, just in general, aren't going to be coming into the next session of Congress or under President Trump, as we saw under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. What does it say for, you know, getting that as point a done, but then maybe directing attention a little bit down the road to the bigger issue and that's with the amount of people that are here in the United States illegally right now. And then as Democrats have used as one of their campaign talking points for a couple of cycles now, that Republicans don't want to deal with the immigration issue when it comes to Congress and legislation. You know, that's the talking point that they've had and it's not true. They're just lying in the direction of what one of the reasons why they just suffered a landslide loss is the American people's self through the lies. We're more than happy to talk about immigration reform, but real immigration reform, which has to include border security, like a lockdown border, you know, not to say that it's close but it's secure. Right. That we know the people that are crossing. You know, it's perfectly fine to have folks cross your border in your frontier. You want that. You want that. It's a very small world nowadays. But guess what? We need to know who you are. We don't need the Mexican drug cartels controlling our southern border, which by the way, incidentally they have done for years now. We need to secure it. And the way in which you do that is I'm all for some kind of America system. We need to eliminate the green card lottery fourth with. Yes. Absolutely have to stop it. It's the dumbest thing in the world. Any nation state that did that and does that in our idiots. And we're idiots right now in that regard because why don't we take the world's best? Oh, you love America. You have a skill that we need in this economy. You have lived a good life. We checked you out and you're squared out and you're proficient in English. Talk of the list. Yep. Guess what we didn't just talk about, Rome? What ethnicity you are, what God you pray to. We don't care. We're irrelevant to whether or not you're going to be a great American and the left is obsessed with race. Right. They're obsessed with it. You know? And so I think there'll be a lot less obsessed with it when they see how many Hispanics are now voting for the Republican Party. Sure. They might want to build a hundred foot wall. Yes. That's what always they've been thinking about. They wanted the broken system because three out of four of the descendants of illegal immigrants were voting for them. Right. That's no longer the case. So they might be up for it. But anyway, what I'm talking about is like, Merit, you have a farm worker, a migrant farm worker that's doing the work that most Americans don't want to do. And then they go back and then they follow the rules and they go back to their home country. And many of these folks are Mexican national. That should, they should gain some points toward a green card because they're earning it. Agreed. You know? That's a discussion that we need to have. How about the maids that are from, that are on those, I think it's H1A visas, they're coming in and they're again doing work that a lot of Americans don't want to do and they're working hard. Then they go back to home country. Those folks should have some preference when it does come to green card applications because they have earned it. If someone serves in the United States military, honorably for four years, whether they're a Mexican national, we have unique relationships with like the Philippines because they have one point or part of the United States, et cetera like that. I think that's automatic citizenship after four years. You can earn it. So you got these dreamers at the left, like to talk about, they grew up here because their parents brought them over and they were four and they have, you know, they've grown up in American culture, they speak American English fluently, et cetera. Okay. You want to come here, you're here, you want to stay legally, you want to be a citizen, serving the military. Yeah. Make a contribution. A real one. Yeah. And a real one. And you know what? We have a recruiting crisis right now in the military. We haven't hit our goals in most of the last few years and that has to. We have to stand that tie. That's one of the ways to do it. And then you applaud that person. I think you and I would get a great wholeheartedly that you earned it. Welcome to, you know, the whole brotherhood, sisterhood and let's move forward. That's part of the incentive system that I think a lot of immigrants would be very keen to and that Americans want to see, you know, being offered instead of just saying, come here and we won't detain you, we're actually going to let you in and let you work out your case. Because, I mean, we all know, Congressman, you live in a border state, you know, the immigration system really well, what happens, these people come in, they're into the wind. The first thing they do is either they get married or they start having kids and once there's a U.S. citizen in the equation of what's going on with an illegal alien, even though the Supreme Court did make a ruling on the spousal issue this week. But if they have any kind of a child or a thing like that, it's almost impossible to remove the unit and then the immigration system's out the door. It's pathway to the green card, pathway to citizenship and a lot of that stuff's got to be reworked. But we're at ground zero right now, but the future looks very bright. Listen, as always, it was great catching up with you today. We look forward to having you back on the show once you're back up on the hill as well. Give us an update on everything that's going on there. We've got your congressional website live linked in the show description. Where can we find on social media? Rep. Pat Fallon on Instagram and Facebook and X, we'd love to have you come on and visit and share your thoughts. And as you said, we need to reform that immigration, but it needs to be earned and you need to apply to it legally. And I think we all would be better off if that happened. Got some great insight today from the Congressman who's representing Texas' 4th Congressional District. Rep. Pat Fallon, thanks for coming on the show. Have a great rest of the week. Thanks, you too, a couple of us. Guys, we're coming back with another all new edition of the State for Breakfast podcast. So sit back, relax, and let us change the way you consume your news.
