Allen Jackson NOW | Allen Jackson: Explosive Documents | Allen Jackson Now | July 22, 2025
  • Good evening.
  • 00:00:17.542 --> 00:00:18.543
  • I'm alan jackson, and welcome to nashville.
  • 00:00:18.543 --> 00:00:20.745
  • We're going to begin tonight with what may turn out to be the
  • 00:00:20.745 --> 00:00:23.448
  • Most important inside government revelation since watergate,
  • 00:00:23.448 --> 00:00:27.586
  • And far more significant with the release
  • 00:00:27.586 --> 00:00:29.921
  • Of some previously hidden internal documents.
  • 00:00:29.921 --> 00:00:32.257
  • We've now
  • 00:00:32.257 --> 00:00:33.425
  • All learned that the 44th president of the united states
  • 00:00:33.425 --> 00:00:36.027
  • Tried to unseat the incoming 45th president,
  • 00:00:36.027 --> 00:00:39.264
  • Just as he was about to take office.
  • 00:00:39.264 --> 00:00:41.333
  • Well, according to new evidence
  • 00:00:41.333 --> 00:00:42.634
  • From the director of national intelligence,
  • 00:00:42.634 --> 00:00:44.703
  • President obama directed a plan to weaponize raw intelligence
  • 00:00:44.703 --> 00:00:48.807
  • In order to completely undo then president elect donald trump.
  • 00:00:48.807 --> 00:00:53.545
  • The documents were released by tulsi gabbard,
  • 00:00:53.545 --> 00:00:55.847
  • Who calls it a treasonous conspiracy that shows former cia
  • 00:00:55.847 --> 00:00:59.451
  • Director john brennan and former fbi director james comey
  • 00:00:59.451 --> 00:01:03.555
  • Worked face to face with president
  • 00:01:03.555 --> 00:01:05.357
  • Obama, manipulating internal assessments
  • 00:01:05.357 --> 00:01:08.026
  • To push a made up narrative that russia intervened in the 2016
  • 00:01:08.026 --> 00:01:11.663
  • Election to help mr. trump get elected.
  • 00:01:11.663 --> 00:01:14.432
  • Well, as the dni director put it, obama officials
  • 00:01:14.432 --> 00:01:17.435
  • Manufactured intelligence with information they knew
  • 00:01:17.435 --> 00:01:20.605
  • Is not true and then pushed it through their media friends.
  • 00:01:20.605 --> 00:01:24.376
  • Listen to how tulsi gabbard described it.
  • 00:01:24.376 --> 00:01:27.112
  • The implications
  • 00:01:27.512 --> 00:01:28.580
  • Of this are, frankly, nothing short of historic.
  • 00:01:28.580 --> 00:01:32.284
  • Over 100 documents that we released on friday
  • 00:01:32.284 --> 00:01:35.921
  • Really detail and provide evidence of how this
  • 00:01:35.921 --> 00:01:39.925
  • Treasonous conspiracy was directed by president
  • 00:01:39.925 --> 00:01:43.828
  • Obama just weeks before he was due to leave office
  • 00:01:43.828 --> 00:01:47.632
  • After president trump had already gotten elected.
  • 00:01:47.632 --> 00:01:51.136
  • This is not a democrat or republican issue.
  • 00:01:51.136 --> 00:01:53.805
  • This is an issue that is so serious
  • 00:01:53.805 --> 00:01:55.473
  • That should concern every single american.
  • 00:01:55.473 --> 00:01:58.843
  • Well, with that, i want to bring in
  • 00:01:58.843 --> 00:02:00.412
  • One of our regular washington guest, ned ryan.
  • 00:02:00.412 --> 00:02:03.615
  • He's the founder of american majority and someone
  • 00:02:03.615 --> 00:02:05.951
  • With a lot of knowledge in the ways of washington. ned.
  • 00:02:05.951 --> 00:02:08.987
  • Welcome back.
  • 00:02:08.987 --> 00:02:10.755
  • Great to be back with you, alan.
  • 00:02:10.755 --> 00:02:12.891
  • Tulsi gabbard has already sent this
  • 00:02:12.891 --> 00:02:14.759
  • To the department of justice with a criminal referral.
  • 00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:17.596
  • And she says there's more documentation to come.
  • 00:02:17.596 --> 00:02:20.732
  • So let's start by giving us your assessment of how
  • 00:02:20.732 --> 00:02:23.368
  • Big a deal this really is.
  • 00:02:23.368 --> 00:02:26.004
  • It's massive.
  • 00:02:26.371 --> 00:02:27.806
  • You know, you mentioned watergate
  • 00:02:27.806 --> 00:02:29.207
  • In your opening monologue.
  • 00:02:29.207 --> 00:02:30.375
  • I think this makes watergate look like amateur hour.
  • 00:02:30.375 --> 00:02:34.279
  • Small ball.
  • 00:02:34.279 --> 00:02:37.082
  • Russiagate, to me, is what we long suspected.
  • 00:02:37.082 --> 00:02:40.185
  • Island was that eventually we would find ourselves back
  • 00:02:40.185 --> 00:02:43.255
  • In the oval office with obama and biden implicated
  • 00:02:43.255 --> 00:02:47.125
  • And being part and parcel to,
  • 00:02:47.125 --> 00:02:49.995
  • This hoax of russian collusion.
  • 00:02:49.995 --> 00:02:52.530
  • And now as as tulsi said on friday, over 100 documents
  • 00:02:52.530 --> 00:02:56.568
  • That showed not only were they aware of
  • 00:02:56.568 --> 00:02:58.403
  • And part of this treasonous and i would say
  • 00:02:58.403 --> 00:03:00.839
  • Seditious conspiracy against donald j.
  • 00:03:00.839 --> 00:03:03.074
  • Trump, it very much looks like barack obama was quarterbacking,
  • 00:03:03.074 --> 00:03:07.712
  • The attempts to take out the newly elected,
  • 00:03:07.712 --> 00:03:10.749
  • And soon to be sworn in donald j.
  • 00:03:10.749 --> 00:03:12.617
  • Trump.
  • 00:03:12.617 --> 00:03:13.685
  • And so the important thing for me is that
  • 00:03:13.685 --> 00:03:16.821
  • People actually be prosecuted, that they actually realize,
  • 00:03:16.821 --> 00:03:20.692
  • Received the full extent of the law
  • 00:03:21.459 --> 00:03:23.261
  • And the consequences for the decisions
  • 00:03:23.261 --> 00:03:25.196
  • Because of what it means for this country.
  • 00:03:25.196 --> 00:03:26.564
  • And tulsi kind of alluded to that.
  • 00:03:26.564 --> 00:03:28.033
  • But i think we need to focus on the fact that
  • 00:03:28.033 --> 00:03:30.402
  • What what barack obama
  • 00:03:30.402 --> 00:03:31.870
  • And john brennan and comey and andrew mccabe
  • 00:03:31.870 --> 00:03:35.974
  • And james baker, all of the folks
  • 00:03:35.974 --> 00:03:38.043
  • That were heavily involved, susan rice, what they were doing
  • 00:03:38.043 --> 00:03:41.212
  • Was denying the peaceful transfer of power.
  • 00:03:41.212 --> 00:03:44.316
  • They were trying to thwart
  • 00:03:44.316 --> 00:03:45.650
  • The will of the american people and the duly elected
  • 00:03:45.650 --> 00:03:48.653
  • President and free and fair elections, the results of those
  • 00:03:48.653 --> 00:03:52.724
  • And we're using these institutions,
  • 00:03:52.724 --> 00:03:55.126
  • Whether it was the doj or the fbi or the intel community,
  • 00:03:55.126 --> 00:03:59.064
  • As political weapons against a political opponent
  • 00:03:59.064 --> 00:04:01.666
  • Over policy differences.
  • 00:04:01.666 --> 00:04:03.702
  • And so the massive abuse of public trust,
  • 00:04:03.702 --> 00:04:06.805
  • The massive abuse of power
  • 00:04:06.805 --> 00:04:08.606
  • In what i consider highly illegal acts,
  • 00:04:08.606 --> 00:04:11.409
  • The only way that you can restore trust
  • 00:04:11.409 --> 00:04:13.712
  • And confidence in these institutions,
  • 00:04:13.712 --> 00:04:16.114
  • And i think things are very fundamental
  • 00:04:16.114 --> 00:04:17.716
  • To who we are as a country, is for there to be consequences.
  • 00:04:17.716 --> 00:04:20.618
  • And i'm not meeting, meaning stripping
  • 00:04:20.618 --> 00:04:22.721
  • People of security clearances.
  • 00:04:22.721 --> 00:04:24.589
  • I'm meeting
  • 00:04:24.589 --> 00:04:25.757
  • Prosecuted to the full extent of the law and receiving
  • 00:04:25.757 --> 00:04:28.993
  • The ultimate end of that, which is probably jail time.
  • 00:04:28.993 --> 00:04:31.596
  • And i just want to
  • 00:04:32.030 --> 00:04:33.231
  • There's two other things, you know, while i'm sitting here
  • 00:04:33.231 --> 00:04:34.699
  • Thinking about this, that i want to make a point,
  • 00:04:34.699 --> 00:04:37.369
  • I didn't make the rules to this new game where you can
  • 00:04:37.369 --> 00:04:39.838
  • Prosecute former presidents and give them mug shots.
  • 00:04:39.838 --> 00:04:43.875
  • I didn't make the rules to that game, but those are the rules,
  • 00:04:43.875 --> 00:04:46.711
  • And i think we should play that game
  • 00:04:46.711 --> 00:04:48.079
  • By the rules that the less nate
  • 00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:50.415
  • And i think barack obama should receive exactly
  • 00:04:50.415 --> 00:04:53.084
  • What he deserves for cracking the seditious conspiracy.
  • 00:04:53.084 --> 00:04:56.855
  • But the other thing i also want to point out, alan, is this
  • 00:04:56.855 --> 00:05:00.392
  • A lot of the coconspirators in this, this grand conspiracy
  • 00:05:00.392 --> 00:05:04.329
  • To take out donald j.
  • 00:05:04.329 --> 00:05:05.397
  • Trump are the corporate trump propagandists.
  • 00:05:05.397 --> 00:05:07.665
  • Think about what took place barack obama, comey, brennan,
  • 00:05:07.665 --> 00:05:10.402
  • All of them cooked up this hoax to take out trump
  • 00:05:10.402 --> 00:05:14.539
  • The way they facilitated getting that story into the public eye
  • 00:05:14.539 --> 00:05:19.010
  • In injecting that poison into this country was through
  • 00:05:19.010 --> 00:05:22.547
  • The corporate propagandists.
  • 00:05:22.547 --> 00:05:24.215
  • So the corporate propagandists don't want to talk about this,
  • 00:05:24.215 --> 00:05:27.018
  • Because you know why?
  • 00:05:27.018 --> 00:05:27.952
  • They were the coconspirators
  • 00:05:27.952 --> 00:05:29.921
  • In trying to take out the duly
  • 00:05:29.921 --> 00:05:31.322
  • Elected president, united states.
  • 00:05:31.322 --> 00:05:32.557
  • So we're looking at barack obama
  • 00:05:32.557 --> 00:05:34.125
  • And brennan and comey and everybody else.
  • 00:05:34.125 --> 00:05:36.428
  • I think we need to have a hard look at a lot of these people
  • 00:05:36.428 --> 00:05:39.364
  • That are sitting at cnn, msnbc, washington post, new york times
  • 00:05:39.364 --> 00:05:43.735
  • And other outlets that were part and parcel
  • 00:05:43.735 --> 00:05:47.205
  • To this treasonous conspiracy.
  • 00:05:47.205 --> 00:05:49.374
  • Well, no, you know, i agree with you.
  • 00:05:50.175 --> 00:05:51.443
  • I think there's something that makes many of us
  • 00:05:51.443 --> 00:05:53.445
  • Uncomfortable with investigating
  • 00:05:53.445 --> 00:05:55.180
  • A former president, former administration.
  • 00:05:55.180 --> 00:05:57.949
  • On the other hand, if being in the white house
  • 00:05:57.949 --> 00:06:00.151
  • Gives you carte blanche to break any law you want to,
  • 00:06:00.151 --> 00:06:03.254
  • We will have no liberty and freedom.
  • 00:06:03.254 --> 00:06:05.089
  • So it seems to me that this has to be pursued.
  • 00:06:05.089 --> 00:06:07.992
  • This isn't a political agenda.
  • 00:06:07.992 --> 00:06:09.494
  • This is a freedom of speech, a freedom of issue
  • 00:06:09.494 --> 00:06:12.063
  • For all american people. am i right?
  • 00:06:12.063 --> 00:06:14.299
  • Also, it's also about rule of law.
  • 00:06:14.299 --> 00:06:17.268
  • It's also about do we actually believe in the rule of law?
  • 00:06:17.268 --> 00:06:20.405
  • If you've broken the law, it doesn't matter.
  • 00:06:20.405 --> 00:06:22.240
  • Your station in life what what connections you might have.
  • 00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:25.543
  • One of the founding principles of this
  • 00:06:25.543 --> 00:06:27.045
  • Country is all stand equal before the law.
  • 00:06:27.045 --> 00:06:29.547
  • Doesn't matter your position or power or money.
  • 00:06:29.547 --> 00:06:32.283
  • And so for us to restore trust in institutions
  • 00:06:32.283 --> 00:06:35.787
  • And to restore trust in the idea of rule
  • 00:06:35.787 --> 00:06:37.622
  • Of law and equal application of the law,
  • 00:06:37.622 --> 00:06:39.824
  • I think a lot of american people
  • 00:06:39.824 --> 00:06:41.092
  • Have lost trust in our institutions
  • 00:06:41.092 --> 00:06:42.527
  • Because they see very powerful people
  • 00:06:42.527 --> 00:06:44.896
  • Getting away with what they consider
  • 00:06:44.896 --> 00:06:46.698
  • To be highly illegal acts and don't face any consequences.
  • 00:06:46.698 --> 00:06:50.568
  • So for us to to have consequences
  • 00:06:50.568 --> 00:06:53.438
  • Now, i think is going to really decide or not
  • 00:06:53.438 --> 00:06:56.541
  • Is going to decide who we are as a people 20 years from now.
  • 00:06:56.541 --> 00:06:59.177
  • So this has implications now, but the process of restoring
  • 00:06:59.177 --> 00:07:02.881
  • Who we are as a republic and the idea of rule of law.
  • 00:07:02.881 --> 00:07:05.550
  • But if we don't do anything now, alan,
  • 00:07:05.550 --> 00:07:07.819
  • I guess i've got real questions as to who we're going to be
  • 00:07:07.819 --> 00:07:10.188
  • As a people in a country a generation from now.
  • 00:07:10.188 --> 00:07:13.224
  • Well, despite the scale of what we've just learned,
  • 00:07:14.259 --> 00:07:16.761
  • If you listen
  • 00:07:16.761 --> 00:07:17.428
  • To much of the american media,
  • 00:07:17.428 --> 00:07:19.030
  • This major piece of news doesn't even seem to rate.
  • 00:07:19.030 --> 00:07:22.033
  • Instead, they're shows are full of stories
  • 00:07:22.033 --> 00:07:23.668
  • About the ceo
  • 00:07:23.668 --> 00:07:24.936
  • Who was caught hugging his hr executive as a coldplay concert,
  • 00:07:24.936 --> 00:07:28.706
  • Or the cancellation of stephen colbert.
  • 00:07:28.706 --> 00:07:31.643
  • Are they just going to ignore this
  • 00:07:31.643 --> 00:07:33.044
  • Like they did the immigration crisis?
  • 00:07:33.044 --> 00:07:35.413
  • They're going to do their best.
  • 00:07:35.413 --> 00:07:36.614
  • I mean, let's not forget
  • 00:07:36.614 --> 00:07:37.782
  • Washington post, new york times, they want pulitzers
  • 00:07:37.782 --> 00:07:41.052
  • For their coverage of of the russian collusion story.
  • 00:07:41.052 --> 00:07:43.555
  • I believe it was in 2018.
  • 00:07:43.555 --> 00:07:45.723
  • And so when i say they're coconspirators,
  • 00:07:45.723 --> 00:07:47.625
  • They were part and parcel of actually fomenting
  • 00:07:47.625 --> 00:07:50.461
  • And amplifying this narrative
  • 00:07:50.461 --> 00:07:52.397
  • That somehow donald trump was a traitor to his country.
  • 00:07:52.397 --> 00:07:55.600
  • So the last thing that
  • 00:07:55.600 --> 00:07:56.768
  • They actually want to do is have a deeper conversation
  • 00:07:56.768 --> 00:08:00.338
  • About what actually took place.
  • 00:08:00.338 --> 00:08:02.040
  • And they will they will attempt another conspiracy of silence,
  • 00:08:02.040 --> 00:08:06.444
  • A conspiracy of silence about joe biden's health.
  • 00:08:06.444 --> 00:08:08.947
  • I think they're going to attempt another conspiracy of silence
  • 00:08:08.947 --> 00:08:12.216
  • About barack obama and their role in that attempt
  • 00:08:12.216 --> 00:08:15.887
  • To take out donald trump, so i do not expect them
  • 00:08:15.887 --> 00:08:19.958
  • In any way to cover this,
  • 00:08:19.958 --> 00:08:21.826
  • In a meaningful way because of the of what they will
  • 00:08:21.826 --> 00:08:25.063
  • In be implicated in themselves.
  • 00:08:25.063 --> 00:08:27.832
  • Well, ned, please stay with us for another segment.
  • 00:08:28.833 --> 00:08:30.902
  • I want to get into how this ties
  • 00:08:30.902 --> 00:08:32.170
  • Into the book you released this spring.
  • 00:08:32.170 --> 00:08:34.305
  • If you don't have it yet, it's called american leviathan.
  • 00:08:34.305 --> 00:08:37.575
  • And in it, you'll find all sorts
  • 00:08:37.575 --> 00:08:39.043
  • Of inspiration on how to take on the beltway driven authority,
  • 00:08:39.043 --> 00:08:42.847
  • What america was really built to be run by you, the people.
  • 00:08:42.847 --> 00:08:46.284
  • I'll be right back.
  • 00:08:46.751 --> 00:08:54.009
  • I'll be right back.
  • 00:08:54.009 --> 00:08:58.964
  • We're back now with the ceo of american majority
  • 00:08:59.965 --> 00:09:03.035
  • And the author of american leviathan.
  • 00:09:03.035 --> 00:09:06.071
  • You've reminded every american who's read your book
  • 00:09:06.071 --> 00:09:08.340
  • That this country is at its best when it's a government.
  • 00:09:08.340 --> 00:09:11.477
  • And i quote of, by and for the american people
  • 00:09:11.477 --> 00:09:15.047
  • Rather than a faceless machine in washington.
  • 00:09:15.047 --> 00:09:18.183
  • Do you see some of the change happening now with president
  • 00:09:18.183 --> 00:09:20.653
  • Trump in office?
  • 00:09:20.653 --> 00:09:21.587
  • I do, i'm actually very encouraged.
  • 00:09:22.388 --> 00:09:25.024
  • I mean, it's been an incredible six months.
  • 00:09:25.024 --> 00:09:26.759
  • I think it'll be real when we look back.
  • 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:30.396
  • Really a pivotal six months in the history of this country
  • 00:09:30.396 --> 00:09:33.232
  • In which we have right on the ship,
  • 00:09:33.232 --> 00:09:34.967
  • And we're headed in the right direction.
  • 00:09:34.967 --> 00:09:36.869
  • Still a lot of work that needs to be done.
  • 00:09:36.869 --> 00:09:39.171
  • But i think that the some of the things that encouraged me.
  • 00:09:39.171 --> 00:09:42.374
  • You know, he's won some cases in front of the supreme court
  • 00:09:42.374 --> 00:09:45.644
  • In which they've now cleared him to continue down the path
  • 00:09:45.644 --> 00:09:49.148
  • Of shutting down the department of education,
  • 00:09:49.148 --> 00:09:51.050
  • Which which is a huge step in the right direction in which
  • 00:09:51.050 --> 00:09:53.886
  • He should be able to shut that entire department down.
  • 00:09:53.886 --> 00:09:56.488
  • I would like to see him implode the building,
  • 00:09:56.488 --> 00:09:58.057
  • Of course, with nobody in it.
  • 00:09:58.057 --> 00:09:59.458
  • Raise it to the ground and build his garden of heroes.
  • 00:09:59.458 --> 00:10:02.394
  • Park over that because it'd be highly symbolic like we are.
  • 00:10:02.394 --> 00:10:05.664
  • We have finished the administrative state.
  • 00:10:05.664 --> 00:10:07.733
  • We are restoring the republic again.
  • 00:10:07.733 --> 00:10:09.968
  • But then i want him to continue going.
  • 00:10:09.968 --> 00:10:12.304
  • Alan, in that same direction.
  • 00:10:12.304 --> 00:10:13.706
  • Hud should be next.
  • 00:10:13.706 --> 00:10:15.641
  • Other departments and agencies.
  • 00:10:15.641 --> 00:10:17.476
  • He has to break apart
  • 00:10:17.476 --> 00:10:18.610
  • The administrative state and reduce, this bureaucracy
  • 00:10:18.610 --> 00:10:22.114
  • By as much as possible in the four years that he has.
  • 00:10:22.114 --> 00:10:24.683
  • You won't be fully successful.
  • 00:10:24.683 --> 00:10:25.984
  • I mean, this has been 100 plus years in the making,
  • 00:10:25.984 --> 00:10:28.387
  • But he has to completely destroy the idea that the rule of the
  • 00:10:28.387 --> 00:10:31.957
  • Bureaucrat is an acceptable form of governance in this country,
  • 00:10:31.957 --> 00:10:35.694
  • And that he wants to restore
  • 00:10:35.694 --> 00:10:36.762
  • Representative government,
  • 00:10:36.762 --> 00:10:37.863
  • That he wants to restore representative democracy.
  • 00:10:37.863 --> 00:10:40.699
  • And i think he's headed in the right direction.
  • 00:10:40.699 --> 00:10:42.668
  • I will say this.
  • 00:10:42.668 --> 00:10:43.902
  • There have been about 22,000 federal employees that have left
  • 00:10:43.902 --> 00:10:47.406
  • The government in the first six months.
  • 00:10:47.406 --> 00:10:49.508
  • It's a move in the right direction.
  • 00:10:49.508 --> 00:10:50.976
  • But until we get to 800,000,
  • 00:10:50.976 --> 00:10:53.278
  • I'm not going to be happy.
  • 00:10:53.846 --> 00:10:54.847
  • And i say that with a very specific
  • 00:10:54.847 --> 00:10:56.582
  • Thought in mind, those that is the number
  • 00:10:56.582 --> 00:10:59.284
  • That has been identified
  • 00:10:59.284 --> 00:11:00.452
  • As the non-essential federal employees, 800,000.
  • 00:11:00.452 --> 00:11:03.589
  • So that, to me is the goal.
  • 00:11:03.589 --> 00:11:04.890
  • How do you reduce the federal government
  • 00:11:04.890 --> 00:11:06.492
  • By a hundred thousand, remove all the non-essentials,
  • 00:11:06.492 --> 00:11:09.261
  • And then, more importantly,
  • 00:11:09.261 --> 00:11:10.863
  • Put those bureaucrats under the direction of
  • 00:11:10.863 --> 00:11:14.133
  • And working on behalf of the
  • 00:11:14.133 --> 00:11:15.701
  • Duly elected representatives of the american people.
  • 00:11:15.701 --> 00:11:19.605
  • You know,
  • 00:11:19.905 --> 00:11:20.873
  • So much has gotten done since we last talked
  • 00:11:20.873 --> 00:11:22.941
  • To try to avoid higher tariffs.
  • 00:11:22.941 --> 00:11:24.376
  • China's having some of what
  • 00:11:24.376 --> 00:11:25.511
  • It usually produces, in this case, lawn chairs
  • 00:11:25.511 --> 00:11:28.313
  • Being made on their behalf in vietnam
  • 00:11:28.313 --> 00:11:30.716
  • And countries that haven't settled
  • 00:11:30.716 --> 00:11:32.050
  • Their tariff deals,
  • 00:11:32.050 --> 00:11:33.085
  • Or saying that president trump's not going to sit
  • 00:11:33.085 --> 00:11:34.586
  • Still while they try to push americans out of work rights.
  • 00:11:34.586 --> 00:11:37.589
  • Taking time.
  • 00:11:37.589 --> 00:11:38.557
  • But as the treasury secretary has explained,
  • 00:11:38.557 --> 00:11:40.559
  • They're reversing years of bad policy.
  • 00:11:40.559 --> 00:11:43.495
  • Listen to how he put it.
  • 00:11:43.495 --> 00:11:44.963
  • President trump has created maximum leverage
  • 00:11:44.963 --> 00:11:48.267
  • As only he can do.
  • 00:11:48.267 --> 00:11:49.835
  • And what we are seeing is like these imbalances
  • 00:11:49.835 --> 00:11:53.772
  • Built up over 20, 30, 40 years, and we are more concerned
  • 00:11:53.772 --> 00:11:58.911
  • With high quality deals than getting these deals
  • 00:11:58.911 --> 00:12:02.781
  • Done by august 1st.
  • 00:12:02.781 --> 00:12:05.517
  • The treasury secretary has
  • 00:12:06.084 --> 00:12:07.319
  • Also said that a lot of new deals
  • 00:12:07.319 --> 00:12:09.254
  • Will be announced in the coming days.
  • 00:12:09.254 --> 00:12:11.323
  • Can we assume that
  • 00:12:11.323 --> 00:12:12.491
  • This will resonate with voters next year in the midterms?
  • 00:12:12.491 --> 00:12:15.561
  • I think so.
  • 00:12:15.894 --> 00:12:16.829
  • I think obviously the panic and, in april
  • 00:12:16.829 --> 00:12:20.465
  • That we were thinking the sky was falling,
  • 00:12:20.465 --> 00:12:22.968
  • That this was going to bring on a recession were, of course,
  • 00:12:22.968 --> 00:12:25.337
  • Clearly wrong.
  • 00:12:25.337 --> 00:12:26.939
  • As we see the market coming back.
  • 00:12:26.939 --> 00:12:28.774
  • And i couldn't be happier with what trump and scott besson
  • 00:12:28.774 --> 00:12:32.411
  • Are doing in writing and as as scott besson
  • 00:12:32.411 --> 00:12:35.714
  • So rightly said, this is this has been decades in the making.
  • 00:12:35.714 --> 00:12:39.184
  • You're not going to fix it overnight.
  • 00:12:39.184 --> 00:12:40.986
  • But i do
  • 00:12:40.986 --> 00:12:42.187
  • Think we're already starting to see some of the returns,
  • 00:12:42.187 --> 00:12:45.457
  • On this approach in which we're trying to level
  • 00:12:45.457 --> 00:12:47.226
  • The playing field on terrible trade deals.
  • 00:12:47.226 --> 00:12:49.428
  • We're trying to bring back manufacturing,
  • 00:12:49.428 --> 00:12:51.697
  • Trying to bring back u.s. jobs.
  • 00:12:51.697 --> 00:12:53.732
  • I think you're going to be able to see some of that effect
  • 00:12:53.732 --> 00:12:57.069
  • By next summer, going into the fall,
  • 00:12:57.069 --> 00:12:59.771
  • In which you'll see a lot of the effect of these policies
  • 00:12:59.771 --> 00:13:02.875
  • Coming into to fruition.
  • 00:13:02.875 --> 00:13:05.010
  • And i think you're going to see, i would hope,
  • 00:13:05.010 --> 00:13:06.945
  • A pretty strong economy as well, because that's going to be
  • 00:13:06.945 --> 00:13:09.514
  • Those are going to be huge, have a huge impact
  • 00:13:09.514 --> 00:13:11.617
  • On the midterms
  • 00:13:11.617 --> 00:13:12.684
  • In addition to some of the other,
  • 00:13:12.684 --> 00:13:14.086
  • You know, functional things of how we win or lose elections.
  • 00:13:14.086 --> 00:13:16.655
  • But if the narrative is good on the economy and the tariffs
  • 00:13:16.655 --> 00:13:19.758
  • And all the other economic policies of trump,
  • 00:13:19.758 --> 00:13:22.361
  • You know, i'm optimistic we'll keep the house
  • 00:13:22.361 --> 00:13:24.129
  • And the senate in the midterms.
  • 00:13:24.129 --> 00:13:25.631
  • Well, there's a report this morning
  • 00:13:26.431 --> 00:13:27.766
  • That the republican national committee has a very big lead
  • 00:13:27.766 --> 00:13:30.802
  • On the democrats, the rnc with more than $80 million
  • 00:13:30.802 --> 00:13:34.606
  • For campaigns, the dnc with only 15 million.
  • 00:13:34.606 --> 00:13:37.809
  • What's that sort of do you think they'll
  • 00:13:38.677 --> 00:13:41.046
  • They'll keep that for 2026?
  • 00:13:41.046 --> 00:13:43.982
  • Well, someone some of us have theorized that,
  • 00:13:43.982 --> 00:13:46.318
  • Pretty interesting when you shut down usaid
  • 00:13:46.318 --> 00:13:49.187
  • And other, entities that were clearly laundering
  • 00:13:49.187 --> 00:13:51.757
  • Efforts by the left to fund their private, pet project.
  • 00:13:51.757 --> 00:13:55.093
  • I don't know who knows where that money was ending up,
  • 00:13:55.093 --> 00:13:57.262
  • But it is kind of startling to see
  • 00:13:57.262 --> 00:13:59.097
  • Such a staggering difference between the rnc and the dnc.
  • 00:13:59.097 --> 00:14:03.268
  • You know, right now
  • 00:14:03.735 --> 00:14:04.903
  • I will say this,
  • 00:14:04.903 --> 00:14:06.071
  • It's going to come down to what is the narrative,
  • 00:14:06.071 --> 00:14:07.606
  • What are the stories
  • 00:14:07.606 --> 00:14:08.507
  • That we just discussed on on the economy
  • 00:14:08.507 --> 00:14:10.208
  • And jobs and manufacturing, all these things.
  • 00:14:10.208 --> 00:14:12.744
  • But it's also going to be
  • 00:14:12.744 --> 00:14:13.545
  • A, something where the rnc is going
  • 00:14:13.545 --> 00:14:15.781
  • To have to focus on doing the right things
  • 00:14:15.781 --> 00:14:17.549
  • And building out the numbers that lead to success,
  • 00:14:17.549 --> 00:14:19.985
  • Which i certainly hope they're going
  • 00:14:19.985 --> 00:14:21.553
  • To be plowing some money into voter registration,
  • 00:14:21.553 --> 00:14:23.855
  • Building up ballot universes,
  • 00:14:23.855 --> 00:14:25.724
  • Especially in those key house districts.
  • 00:14:25.724 --> 00:14:27.426
  • It's going to come down to 16
  • 00:14:27.426 --> 00:14:28.560
  • Or 20 key house races next year to decide the majority.
  • 00:14:28.560 --> 00:14:31.930
  • So, you know, i'm optimistic with the fundraising
  • 00:14:31.930 --> 00:14:34.800
  • Going as well, not only for the rnc but for maga inc.
  • 00:14:34.800 --> 00:14:37.936
  • I believe trump, they announced about 900 million cash on hand.
  • 00:14:37.936 --> 00:14:42.007
  • So there's a lot of firepower and resources
  • 00:14:42.007 --> 00:14:44.376
  • That i hope will be used effectively next year
  • 00:14:44.376 --> 00:14:46.445
  • On the right things that will lead to success.
  • 00:14:46.445 --> 00:14:48.613
  • But if we've got the narrative right
  • 00:14:48.613 --> 00:14:50.382
  • And the story right and are investing in the right
  • 00:14:50.382 --> 00:14:52.451
  • Things like voter registration, absentee ballots
  • 00:14:52.451 --> 00:14:55.220
  • And then absentee ballot
  • 00:14:55.220 --> 00:14:56.488
  • Chase and early vote projects in the right house districts.
  • 00:14:56.488 --> 00:14:59.524
  • I'm optimistic we keep the house in the senate.
  • 00:14:59.524 --> 00:15:02.127
  • Well, one last question before we run out of time.
  • 00:15:03.128 --> 00:15:05.630
  • Your organization is called american majority,
  • 00:15:05.630 --> 00:15:08.166
  • And it seems especially well named
  • 00:15:08.166 --> 00:15:09.701
  • Because a lot of polls show that you are in the majority,
  • 00:15:09.701 --> 00:15:13.205
  • And that could even grow over the next several years
  • 00:15:13.205 --> 00:15:15.674
  • Based on what i'm seeing from the left.
  • 00:15:15.674 --> 00:15:17.676
  • How do you see the future for conservatives
  • 00:15:17.676 --> 00:15:19.611
  • And people who love this country and believe in its traditions?
  • 00:15:19.611 --> 00:15:23.315
  • You know, it's going to be one of those things
  • 00:15:23.315 --> 00:15:24.616
  • I'm actually writing a lot about.
  • 00:15:24.616 --> 00:15:25.984
  • Of the out of the book came a documentary, american
  • 00:15:25.984 --> 00:15:28.754
  • Leviathan, came a substack american leviathan.com.
  • 00:15:28.754 --> 00:15:31.990
  • And i'm beginning.
  • 00:15:32.424 --> 00:15:33.191
  • I'm continuing that conversation.
  • 00:15:33.191 --> 00:15:34.626
  • So i'd encourage people
  • 00:15:34.626 --> 00:15:35.694
  • Go to american leviathan.com, join the substack.
  • 00:15:35.694 --> 00:15:38.830
  • But i'm really talking about
  • 00:15:38.830 --> 00:15:40.499
  • How do you bring about restoration,
  • 00:15:40.499 --> 00:15:42.200
  • How do we restore the republic,
  • 00:15:42.200 --> 00:15:43.769
  • How do we end the administrative state?
  • 00:15:43.769 --> 00:15:45.904
  • And it's not just rhetoric, it's real focused action
  • 00:15:45.904 --> 00:15:49.775
  • And activities
  • 00:15:49.775 --> 00:15:51.209
  • In which we have to be building towards political power,
  • 00:15:51.209 --> 00:15:54.479
  • To have the right people in the right place
  • 00:15:54.479 --> 00:15:56.148
  • To implement the right policy.
  • 00:15:56.148 --> 00:15:57.949
  • And the only way you can achieve that is by investing
  • 00:15:57.949 --> 00:16:00.252
  • In those right numbers that i was just discussing.
  • 00:16:00.252 --> 00:16:02.621
  • And so,
  • 00:16:02.621 --> 00:16:03.522
  • You know, it's one of those things where
  • 00:16:03.522 --> 00:16:04.923
  • We have the right ideas alone.
  • 00:16:04.923 --> 00:16:06.391
  • We have the ideas that have made
  • 00:16:06.391 --> 00:16:07.459
  • Us the most successful nation on earth.
  • 00:16:07.459 --> 00:16:09.594
  • But unless we actually focus
  • 00:16:09.594 --> 00:16:11.029
  • On the right things to hold that political power,
  • 00:16:11.029 --> 00:16:12.831
  • To have people in the right place to implement policy,
  • 00:16:12.831 --> 00:16:15.534
  • We're not going to be able to fully
  • 00:16:15.534 --> 00:16:17.235
  • Maximize this moment in time.
  • 00:16:17.235 --> 00:16:18.837
  • So i'm encouraging people,
  • 00:16:18.837 --> 00:16:20.305
  • Hands to the plow, nose to the grindstone.
  • 00:16:20.305 --> 00:16:23.141
  • If you truly believe in the repu
  • 00:16:23.141 --> 00:16:27.846
  • We know where we need to go.
  • 00:16:28.447 --> 00:16:29.648
  • There's a lot of hard work that needs to be done,
  • 00:16:29.648 --> 00:16:31.383
  • But i'm optimistic we can accomplish it.
  • 00:16:31.383 --> 00:16:34.753
  • Amen.
  • 00:16:34.986 --> 00:16:36.054
  • Well, ryan, it's always a pleasure to have you on.
  • 00:16:36.054 --> 00:16:37.789
  • Please stay in touch.
  • 00:16:37.789 --> 00:16:39.724
  • Thanks, alan.
  • 00:16:39.724 --> 00:16:40.959
  • In a moment, some hopeful thoughts of my own.
  • 00:16:40.959 --> 00:16:43.361
  • We'll be right back.
  • 00:16:43.361 --> 00:16:51.003
  • We'll be right back.
  • 00:16:51.003 --> 00:16:55.741
  • We are living through
  • 00:16:56.242 --> 00:16:57.410
  • A season of unprecedented manipulation and deception.
  • 00:16:57.410 --> 00:17:00.713
  • And it's not just a recent phenomenon.
  • 00:17:00.713 --> 00:17:03.249
  • We've seen the deterioration of trust
  • 00:17:03.249 --> 00:17:05.017
  • In places that i thought were cornerstones of trust.
  • 00:17:05.017 --> 00:17:08.421
  • We saw the fisa court sign off
  • 00:17:08.421 --> 00:17:09.956
  • On a surveillance of a presidential candidate,
  • 00:17:09.956 --> 00:17:12.425
  • Which, in my thinking, was pretty close
  • 00:17:12.425 --> 00:17:13.926
  • To unprecedented in american history.
  • 00:17:13.926 --> 00:17:16.329
  • The cdc stated emphatically to follow the science.
  • 00:17:16.329 --> 00:17:20.733
  • But what gave me pause was science.
  • 00:17:20.733 --> 00:17:22.435
  • Does it change at a state line?
  • 00:17:22.435 --> 00:17:24.337
  • The science in tennessee should be the same
  • 00:17:24.337 --> 00:17:26.038
  • As science in california or the science in new jersey.
  • 00:17:26.038 --> 00:17:28.975
  • And it wasn't.
  • 00:17:28.975 --> 00:17:30.376
  • Doctor fauci was quick to dismiss the idea
  • 00:17:30.376 --> 00:17:32.378
  • That covid could have originated from a lab in wuhan, china,
  • 00:17:32.378 --> 00:17:35.715
  • Saying scientific evidence showed
  • 00:17:35.715 --> 00:17:37.450
  • The virus could not have been manmade.
  • 00:17:37.450 --> 00:17:40.319
  • This is the same doctor fauci who once stated, and i quote,
  • 00:17:40.319 --> 00:17:43.189
  • Attacks on me are, quite frankly, attacks on science.
  • 00:17:43.189 --> 00:17:46.893
  • Or recently had the one year anniversary of the assassination
  • 00:17:46.893 --> 00:17:49.695
  • Attempt with then candidate trump in butler, pennsylvania.
  • 00:17:49.695 --> 00:17:53.666
  • There's still major gaps in the information that were given.
  • 00:17:53.666 --> 00:17:56.836
  • We don't know how much of former president could have been left
  • 00:17:56.836 --> 00:17:59.906
  • So vulnerable to such an attack.
  • 00:17:59.906 --> 00:18:03.042
  • And now the director of national intelligence, tulsi gabbard,
  • 00:18:03.042 --> 00:18:05.745
  • Has brought to light something deeply troubling.
  • 00:18:05.745 --> 00:18:08.347
  • It's documents that show
  • 00:18:08.347 --> 00:18:09.549
  • Obama era officials knowingly manufactured intelligence
  • 00:18:09.549 --> 00:18:13.286
  • And then handed it off
  • 00:18:13.286 --> 00:18:14.453
  • To their allies in the media to run with it.
  • 00:18:14.453 --> 00:18:17.557
  • We have to understand this season in spiritual terms.
  • 00:18:17.557 --> 00:18:20.359
  • This isn't just a political issue.
  • 00:18:20.359 --> 00:18:22.328
  • Truth matters. integrity matters.
  • 00:18:22.328 --> 00:18:25.498
  • Unfortunately, we can't just blame the government.
  • 00:18:25.498 --> 00:18:27.433
  • The church is left
  • 00:18:27.433 --> 00:18:28.501
  • Much to be desired because we don't want to talk
  • 00:18:28.501 --> 00:18:30.403
  • About current events.
  • 00:18:30.403 --> 00:18:32.205
  • We can't expect the government to be truthful and forthright
  • 00:18:32.205 --> 00:18:34.740
  • If we sit passively in our churches,
  • 00:18:34.740 --> 00:18:36.976
  • Only wanting to discuss first century culture to move forward.
  • 00:18:36.976 --> 00:18:41.113
  • We have to decide to engage and impact our culture
  • 00:18:41.113 --> 00:18:44.016
  • With our biblical worldview and biblical truth.
  • 00:18:44.016 --> 00:18:47.253
  • We'll be right back with your emails.
  • 00:18:47.253 --> 00:18:56.007
  • We'll be right back with your emails.
  • 00:18:56.007 --> 00:18:59.666
  • Thank you for spending a few minutes with us this evening.
  • 00:19:00.834 --> 00:19:03.136
  • If you ever miss an episode live.
  • 00:19:03.136 --> 00:19:04.972
  • You can always go to aj now.com.
  • 00:19:04.972 --> 00:19:07.241
  • There's a full archive there of every program.
  • 00:19:07.241 --> 00:19:09.176
  • Makes it easy to share with the friend.
  • 00:19:09.176 --> 00:19:11.144
  • Your emails are always a highlight.
  • 00:19:11.144 --> 00:19:13.247
  • Judy. be noted.
  • 00:19:13.247 --> 00:19:14.381
  • I have followed
  • 00:19:14.381 --> 00:19:15.382
  • Fox's bible reading plan for the last few years.
  • 00:19:15.382 --> 00:19:17.851
  • I just finished joshua and i'm now in judges.
  • 00:19:17.851 --> 00:19:20.454
  • God help them conquer the land he promised them.
  • 00:19:20.454 --> 00:19:22.889
  • They settled.
  • 00:19:22.889 --> 00:19:23.924
  • Everything is good and they turn away from him
  • 00:19:23.924 --> 00:19:26.360
  • Now again and judges.
  • 00:19:26.360 --> 00:19:27.394
  • The cycle continues.
  • 00:19:27.394 --> 00:19:29.196
  • Well, things are getting better in the us now, thanks to god.
  • 00:19:29.196 --> 00:19:31.632
  • Will the same cycle happen here?
  • 00:19:31.632 --> 00:19:34.468
  • Well, there seems to be a pattern
  • 00:19:34.468 --> 00:19:35.669
  • In the hearts of god's people, but the part
  • 00:19:35.669 --> 00:19:37.371
  • That we have influence over is our generation.
  • 00:19:37.371 --> 00:19:40.340
  • So let's make the declaration that joshua did.
  • 00:19:40.340 --> 00:19:42.476
  • As for me, in my house, we'll serve the lord.
  • 00:19:42.476 --> 00:19:45.012
  • If enough of us will do that,
  • 00:19:45.012 --> 00:19:46.280
  • We'll continue to see god's blessings.
  • 00:19:46.280 --> 00:19:48.682
  • And then, as commented on a youtube.
  • 00:19:49.483 --> 00:19:51.251
  • I wanted to sound safe and debt free nation
  • 00:19:51.251 --> 00:19:53.587
  • For my children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.
  • 00:19:53.587 --> 00:19:56.823
  • I hope this nation is returning to god with better education
  • 00:19:56.823 --> 00:19:59.359
  • And a strong economy.
  • 00:19:59.359 --> 00:20:00.861
  • Just once,
  • 00:20:00.861 --> 00:20:01.828
  • I'd love to see both parties work together
  • 00:20:01.828 --> 00:20:03.764
  • On at least one thing before i die.
  • 00:20:03.764 --> 00:20:06.433
  • I grew up in a country proud to be citizens of the usa
  • 00:20:06.433 --> 00:20:09.202
  • And placing our trust in god, not government.
  • 00:20:09.202 --> 00:20:12.506
  • Well, i can share that dream with you
  • 00:20:13.307 --> 00:20:15.242
  • And i think it will begin, quite honestly,
  • 00:20:15.242 --> 00:20:17.010
  • In the hearts of god's people.
  • 00:20:17.010 --> 00:20:18.845
  • If we will turn our faces to the lord again,
  • 00:20:18.845 --> 00:20:20.947
  • I think we'll see that reflected
  • 00:20:20.947 --> 00:20:22.349
  • In the people that we send to washington, d.c.
  • 00:20:22.349 --> 00:20:25.485
  • And sarah said, i love watching your programing
  • 00:20:25.485 --> 00:20:27.454
  • Every night of the week.
  • 00:20:27.454 --> 00:20:28.388
  • I only wish your show was an hour long.
  • 00:20:28.388 --> 00:20:30.791
  • Well, sarah, some days i wish that in
  • 00:20:30.791 --> 00:20:32.726
  • Some days i'm happy that it's 30 minutes.
  • 00:20:32.726 --> 00:20:34.561
  • So you pray.
  • 00:20:34.561 --> 00:20:35.662
  • If the network says yes, we'll have the discussion.
  • 00:20:35.662 --> 00:20:38.765
  • I'm alan jackson, you have a wonderful evening.
  • 00:20:38.765 --> 00:20:38.765
