If you can believe that Today is the first day of the 2026 election season. It's primary day in Texas, Arkansas and North Carolina will have complete coverage this evening, including Steve Bannon and myself will take you through most of the night. As results start to come in, the big question Will be. Will John Cornyn, the incumbent senator from Texas, be unseated in the Republican primary by challengers, specifically Ken Paxton and Congressman Wesley Hunt? We shall see how that plays out. I want to turn now to the war in Iran. Big news today as the US Continues to hammer away at Iran. We are seeing signs that many of the Iranian leadership are looking to defect. Many of the military leaders are looking to defect. All of this is good news and shows that President Trump is being more and more successful with his military in taking out the ballistic missile sites, taking out command and control structures, and, of course, making sure they never get a nuclear weapon again. That is literally the entire agenda of this war. That's it. Now, the other news to come out today is that apparently Spain and the United Kingdom have not been very helpful to the United States, not surprisingly, seeing that they're run by wild leftists. But President Trump not happy about this. First, to Spain, not letting us use their air bases, not helping us in any way, shape or form. Trump says cut off trade to Spain. But some of the European, like Spain has been terrible. In fact, I told Scott to cut off all dealings with Spain. Spain, first of all. It started when every, every European nation, at my request, paid 5%, which they should be doing. And everybody was enthusiastic about it, Germany, everybody. And Spain didn't do it. And now Spain actually said that we can't use their bases. And that's all right. We don't. We could use their base if we want. We could just fly in and use it. That's. That's my president. We'll just take it from him. So Spain is a problem. The United Kingdom, you know, there was a time when the United Kingdom, I would have told you, was America's greatest ally. Not anymore. You got this guy, Keir Starmer, in charge as the prime minister. Not a good guy, Mr. President, by the way, I'm not happy with the UK either. That island that you read about, the lease, okay, he made it. For whatever reason, he made a lease of the island. Somebody came and took it away from him. And it's taken three, four days for us to work out where we can land there. It would have been much more convenient landing there as opposed to flying many extra hours. So we are very surprised. This is not Winston Churchill that we're dealing with. No, Keir Starmer is not Winston Churchill. And he's talking about islands in the Indian Ocean that are UK Territories. They didn't want to let us land there. Took days to work that out. Not good at all. Now to the controversy over this being a forever war. I will say this. The administration, I think, took some missteps with their words yesterday in their message to Iran. And the American people got a very different message. I can tell you without, beyond a shadow of a doubt, I have talked to people very high up in this administration. The goal is to get in and out of here very quickly. As I said, debilitate their navy, their military, and of course, the nuclear sites, and that's it. But Trump had truth this out yesterday, basically saying that the United States, we have a virtually unlimited supply of these weapons. Wars can be fought forever and very successfully. That was a message to Iran, not our stock markets. But because many of the traders on Wall street are so dumb and also happen to be liberals, they took that the President Trump wants to fight forever. He doesn't. And then Marco Rubio said this about Israel and us getting involved because we knew they would act. Watch. We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action. We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces. And we knew that if we didn't preemptively go after them before they launched those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties and perhaps even higher those killed. And then we would all be here answering questions about why we knew that and didn't act. All right, it seems like an end to his statement there. Apparently, that's not what he was trying to say, because what happened was the fears then ensued. Oh, gosh. Well, maybe Israel was calling shots. We know nobody calls the shots to President Trump. President Trump is the commander in chief of all commander in chiefs. Nobody tells that man what to do. So Rubio clarified his statements today, but not before the stock market was down, and I mean down big today. I was very clear on that answer. This is a question of timing, of why this had to happen as a joint operation, not the question of the intent. Once the president made a decision that negotiations were not going to work, that they were playing us on the negotiations and that this was a threat that was untenable, the decision was made to strike them. That's what I said yesterday. And you guys need to play it. If you're going to play these statements, you need to play the whole statement, not clip it to reach a narrative that you want to do. All right, well, look, I apologize to you, Mr. Secretary, because I played this the same soundbite and I understand what you're saying, and I'm glad you get to clarify it, that this was about timing. Fine. I believe you. I know this is not a forever war. I know this is not about a regime change. But then you also had Secretary Hegseth say this. And I'm only doing this, folks to try to let the administration know these words have consequences. Stock market was not good today. Now it will rally. I promise you this. The stock market is going to come roaring back. I'm not concerned at all. But here was Hagseth about boots on the ground, which we've heard nothing about until this comment. Are there currently any American boots on the ground in Iran? No, but we're not going to go into the exercise of what we will or will not do. I think it's one of those fallacies for a long time that this department or presidents or others should tell the American people and our enemies, by the way, here's exactly what we'll do, here's exactly how long we'll go, here's exactly how far we'll go, here's what we're willing to do and not do. It's foolishness. And so President Trump ensures that our enemies understand we'll go as far as we need to go. So folks, I want to let you in on some insight here. All of this Rubio was saying, what Trump saying about forever ammunition, what Hag says saying there, this was not a message to the American people. It was not meant to tank the stock market. This was literally a message to the Iranian regime that we will not stop until we crush you, annihilate you, destroy you and your navy and your armies and your ballistic missile sites and your nuclear program. That's what that message was aimed at. And I know this to be true because again, I'm going to say it over and over again. I've spoken to people inside the administration. There is no plans for boots on the ground. There's no plans for a forever war. There's no plans for a regime change. And they're not taking orders from Israel. That I guarantee you. And you can get a little backup from J.D. vance today. What's so different about this, Jesse, is that the president has clearly defined what he wants to accomplish and there's just no way. I said this before the conflict stopped, started, I'll repeat it again. There's just no way that Donald Trump is going to allow this country to get into a multi year conflict with no clear end in sight and no clear objective as President Trump and right about everything. Yes, have some faith in the man. I'm talking to many of my MAGA conservatives who want to somehow say, oh, he broke his promise, this is about ending wars, not starting them. I want to bring in now to discuss this Florida Republican Congressman. Our friend Randy Fine is back with us. Congressman, great to have you on the program. Thanks for having me. All right, so you have a primary today. How's that going? I'll ask you that first out of the gate because it is primary. Excuse me, it is not in Florida. Florida, is it. Is it primary? It is primary in Florida. Yes. You do have a primary today. No, no, it's not. It's not primary day in Florida. In fact, we haven't even done redistricting yet. So I don't even know where my district will be. The legislature is still talking about doing that. Our primary In Florida is August 18th. But I do have you're getting Florida confused with the other great state, the state where my friend Brandon Gill, Chip Roy, Keith Self are from the state of Texas. And they are having a big primary today. Yeah, they are. And I broadcast from Texas. Ken Paxton is my guy against John Cornyn. Hopefully that plays out. You know, either Wesley Hunter, Paxton will both be great, but John Cornyn has got to go. Let me ask you this, though. How important is it right now with everything we're seeing? And the war against Iran is a prime point of why we need MAGA conservatives in the United States Congress. Congressman. Well, I think we need to be smart. The president has made a very clear case. He said Iran is at its weakest point that it's been. Iran wants nuclear weapons and Iran wants the capability to deliver those nuclear weapons to the United States. You know, missiles can fly a long way and a nuclear weapon could take out New York City or Washington or Florida. And the president said that simply cannot allow to stand. So he tried to negotiate with the Iranians and they were unwilling to budge. Why? Because the country is run by crazy Muslim clerics who see jihad as their sole source of living and they've killed us for 47 years. So the president did the right thing in defending American interests. I understand why people are worried about a forever war. We've been burned in the past. But I trust Donald Trump. People should trust Donald Trump. He hasn't let us down yet and he's not going to let us down this time. Let me give you an example of somebody you shouldn't trust. And I think he speaks for most Democrats. This comment I heard yesterday from Hakeem Jeffries, the leader of the Democrats in the House. I think it's so awful. Congressman, take a listen and I'm going to get your response prepared to strike the United States preemptively or to strike any of our interests in the region. And there certainly is no justification for a regime change war. The American people want us to focus on making their life better, making their life more affordable, not getting involved in another endless war in the Middle east that is going to end in, in failure. Going to end in failure, Congress. And what does that say to our members of the military? Put a flag on their shoulder and fly into harm's way? Yeah. Well, here's what I would say to the so called Hakeem Jeffries. Tell that to the Coast Guardsmen in the Middle east who aren't getting paid. Tell that to the TSA agents. You know, Republicans number one priority this week is reopening the Department of Homeland Security to protect our homeland security from the kind of people we see in Iran. Democrats are actually whipping votes to keep TSA closed, FEMA closed, the Coast Guard closed, and the Secret Service. The so called Hakeem Jeffries doesn't care about Americans. He just cares about feeding his hatred of Donald Trump. Yeah, absolute disgrace that they turn their backs on the United States military. You can disagree all you want on policy, but let's support our troops. How about lastly, I think it's important I play this soundbite from President Trump. There's a lot of talk that Israel was calling the shots. I've said and I think, Congressman, you agree with me. Nobody's telling President Trump what to do. And in fact, President Trump says, hey, you know what, maybe we're the ones that pushed Israel. Listen to this today, Mr. President, did Israel forced Japan to launch these strikes against Iran? Did that Yahoo pull the United States into this war? No, I might have forced their hand. You see, we were having negotiations with these lunatics and it was my opinion that they were going to attack first. They were going to attack if we didn't do it. And I didn't want that to happen. So if anything, I might have forced Israel's hand. But Israel was ready and we were ready and we've had a very, very powerful impact. Congressman, before I let you respond, they've been a very good ally to us during this and so many other operations that we've run. I think it's okay to ask questions about Israel. But when Israel and the United States interests align, that doesn't mean that Israel is calling the shots. It just means our interests happen to align at that point in time. Congressman? Yeah, I agree. And look, you talked about the relationship we used to have with the UK where we can't count on them anymore. We have that kind of relationship with Israel. Our interests are aligned, but they're not necessarily the same. The president has not made regime change a priority. It is not one of our goals. But that is one of the goals of Israel. That's what they're focused on. That's why they're the ones who killed the Ayatollah, not us. Our focus is on making sure they don't have the military capability to strike the United States. Look, we could use a lot more friends like Israel. And I will say this. Who would have thought that Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and all of these other Islamic countries would now be fighting alongside Israel? I mean, look at what has happened thanks to Donald J. Trump. And as I mentioned at the top of this program, England and Spain turning their backs on us. And we got these Middle Eastern countries that are now helping us out. It's really quite amazing of what President Trump has done and quite amazing what has happened to Europe. What, what? What an absolute shame. Congressman Randy Fine. Good luck in August. I apologize about getting things confused. It made me nervous. I was like, oh, my gosh. Oh, boy. Thank you for coming on tonight. Appreciate it. Thanks, buddy. Appreciate it. Absolutely. All right, folks, turning now to Iran's. Excuse me. Turning now to this war that is going on. Some breaking news. Iran has apparently hit the CIA station at the embassy in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia. No injuries there, but they flew drones into the CIA station there. And then an Iranian drone hit the U.S. consulate in Dubai. Now, make no mistake, we are still winning. That I promise you. I want to bring in now to discuss this former intelligence officer and foreign policy and national security consultant Michael Presence is with us. Michael, welcome to the program. Hey, thanks for having me. I appreciate it. I'm a Texan from El Paso. Good to be on your show. Well, God bless Texas, sir. It's great having you here. Let me ask you, we've got these drone strikes against US Interests. One in Riyadh, one in in Dubai. How much intelligence you were a Defense Intelligence Agency guy. How much intelligence are we still able to get out of Iran right now with everything going on? I was also a 20 year military guy, a veteran of three wars. So I fought Iran in Iraq and I fought Iran support to the Taliban in Afghanistan. But the intelligence here, what we've been able to do is hit static targets, right? Hit the launch sites for the ballist, hit their nuclear sites, hit their drone factories. What we're focused on now, along with the Israeli Defense forces and now our allies in the region, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and others is these launch sites for these drones. This is the most difficult target because you can pretty much launch one of these in 10 to 20 minutes. If you want to do a swarm operation it'll take one to three hours. So we have to look out for these launchers. They're the ones that can evade our air defense systems because they fly under the radar, are, they're cheap, they're $50,000 a piece and they're very effective. They are pre programmed to hit targets before they launch so they're easy to take out. The Ukrainians have been been taking these out in, in Ukraine based on Iran supplying them into Russia. They're just hard to track. You can't track them with radars. You kind of got to hear them, you got to listen to them. And we don't have the assets on the ground, but this is what the asset on the ground would look like. It's basically a close in machine gun capability. You know, a high caliber close in weapon system will take these drone systems out. The Patriots aren't going to do it and we shouldn't be doing it with fighter jets. So this is basically a modern day kamikaze, right? With, with no human pilot in it. Exactly. It's a flying lawnmower with a bomb on the end of it. It's a kamikaze drone. It's predetermined coordinates so it's effective against static positions. So they can, they can launch at the embassies but they can't hit moving targets. And so the benefit of what's going on now is they're already launching their static targets, the static target set. But we're seeing a decrease in drone use every day, a decrease in ballistic missile use every day and rocket use. So they're, they're diminishing their capabilities and their command and control has been decimated. Are they able to move these ballistic missile systems around? Is that another challenge here? Do they? You know I remember in Iraq you'd see these things on 18 wheeler trucks that they'd be rolling around. Similar situation in Iran or no? Yes. So they, they have to move to a launch site. The ones that are static, the ones that have already been stationary have been hit. Now they're starting to move around. But it's a big signature. You have to move it from point A to point B, which could be an hour. Then you have to set it up. And some of these rockets are, are solid fuel. So it takes a long time. Liquid Fuel. It takes a long time to actually get them to go, about an hour to fill them up. So there are signatures on the ground that these pilots are looking for. And the Iranians believe that they simply move at night. And this video is great because that's a nighttime video, that they can move under the COVID of darkness. But we own the night, we own the skies, and we're just looking for these types of targets. All right, last question for you. Just 10, 15 seconds, if you can. How long do you really assess this to be wrapped up? We've heard four weeks, possibly. Can you make an assessment from what you're seeing so far? Well, my biggest concern is that we ended too quick, too soon, and it's all for naught. So it needs to continue until the nuclear program is degraded, the ballistic missiles are degraded, their drone capabilities, and we've diminished the leadership so much to where the people that are actually trying to take the country back will be the people as opposed to unknown clerics that are trying to regain power. Yeah, yeah. It's great having you on the program. Michael Priesyan and I appreciate your service to this country, of course, And I hope you come back. It's fascinating to talk to you. Thank you. Absolutely. Thank you. All right. Absolutely. All right. I want to turn now to Iran and the future there. What is their future? This is. President Trump was asked about it. Cut 19. Well, most of the people we had in mind are dead. So, you know, we had some in mind from that group that is is dead. And now we have another group. They may be dead also, based on. On reports. So I guess you have a third wave coming in. Pretty soon we're not going to know anybody. We'll see what happens. But first we have to finish off the military. The question was, who will lead Iran. That, to me, seems proof that President Trump's not focused on regime change. He's focused about debilitating that country and their offensive capabilities. I want to bring in now the founder and president of Iran Alive Ministries, Dr. Hormos Shariat. Welcome. Doctor, thank you. To the. Thank you for coming on the program. Thank you, Grant, for inviting me. What do you think the future looks like for Iran? How do we figure out who's going to lead this country next? Are they even at a place where that can start to happen yet? Well, they're trying to survive. They have a temporary leadership team. They want to assign and elect the next supreme leader. But this is just a survival technique. And they try to show themselves strong. They're not and Every day they become weaker. So what I see that the Iranian regime will implode sooner or later, maybe even this week, maybe in the following weeks or in a few months. But it's on its way down. And what I'm praying against is that they may not turn into violence one time, another time, once again to kill people, because that's the only thing they know, the only way of survival they know is to kill people. That's what I'm concerned. Otherwise, it's weight. And it's going to change. The regime will change. And one thing, this will happen very soon. Iran, Israel and us will be best friends very soon. Well, I believe that you could be right on this. I believe the Iranian people certainly want freedom. We know that. I know they're capable of running their own country. It's just a matter of getting these evildoers out of the way. Is there a structure on the ground? Because, you know, I've heard about Reza Pahlavi, the former family member of the Shah. And then you've got the National Council of Resistance of Iran. They want to. So you got factions, but I don't know what their presence is inside the country. And is there a presence inside the country for someone that could take over? Well, definitely. The crown prince has emerged as a de facto leader of this revolution. And it was not imposed on people of Iran from outside. Actually, he has more enemies outside. And over the years, even the US did not support him over the years. But it started from the people on the streets of Iran shouting his name, remembering what his grandfather and father did for Iranians. They just transformed in two kings before him. They transformed Iran and the people of Iran today, even the young people who were not born, who did not see his father, they are pro shah and they are rallying around him. He is the center. He is the main leader of the revolution. And one thing attractive about him, he says, I have no desire to be a leader or a king or even a president in the future. All I want is to lead people through this transition. So he's very popular in Iran. The others may claim to be. They're not comparable to his popularity among Iranians. Well, it'll be interesting to see how this all plays out. Doctor, I appreciate you coming on the program today. Thank you. God bless you. Absolutely. Right back at you and your country. You know, it's interesting. I was watching a video, I think it was around the 1960s, maybe early 70s of life in Iran. It looked like not Vegas, but almost like when LA was at the top of its game beautiful women and the fashion and fancy cars and boy, it just completely collapsed under the regime of brutal dictatorship. Right? That's what happens when that's who takes over. All right, listen up. The Trump administration has brought a lot of positive changes when it comes to fixing our broken health care system. However, there's only so much government can do and that if we really want to make America healthy again, that starts at home with each and every one of us.

As I mentioned, today is election day in Texas, Arkansas, and North Carolina. Texas is the big one because the big story is will John Cornyn lose out to one of his two challengers, either Wesley Hunt, congressman from Texas, or Ken Paxton, my guy, the attorney General from Texas. It looks like it will go to a runoff. That is my guess. We shall see how that plays out tonight. We'll have complete coverage. Steve Bannon and I will be taking you through after the show tonight, which I'm looking forward to joining, Steve. But before that, I want to go out to Ben Berklum, who is at Ken Paxton head campaign headquarters just down the street from our Dallas studios here. Ben, welcome to the program. Hey, Grant, just want to give you an update. We're out inside the Paxton event. The vehicle you see behind me, I'm gonna get out of the shot. They're towing it away right now. Had a little bit of excitement when we got here. Had a police presence. One suspect was removed from the vehicle. It had no plates. They weren't given too much information on it, but the vehicle was full of ammunition. Guy had a bulletproof vest. Apparently, he's from Oklahoma. Oklahoma plates, Oklahoma driver's license. But other than that, we don't know anything else other than they, they took it very seriously. They took the suspect off to the jail, and they're taking his vehicle as we speak. So that's what's happening now here as we await the event for Ken Paxton tonight. Ben, was he wearing the. The. The vest? No, he was not wearing the vest, but he was in his vehicle along with several hundred rounds of ammunition. Here's what I just want to pause. This guy could be an assassin, but he also could be a great patriot. You know, Texas, this is going to be the most conservative group of people showing up an event like this. I know them, many of them personally. It is not a surprise to carry an AR15 in your trunk and have lots of ammunition, like magazines you see there. And I don't know about driving around with a ballistic vessel in your car, but it's not out of the realm of possibility. So, you know, I don't want to jump to conclusions until we find out exactly what this guy is about. Yeah, just to give you an idea, I typically drive with both, well armed, a lot of ammunition and, and vest because I do a lot of work with the cartel. So that's, that's not nothing. New it's the apparently his interaction with the police that caused them to take additional steps. So they're just, they weren't telling what that was other than they had reason to take him into custody. As well they should. You know, with everything going on today, we see how violent the left is as well. You've got to take every precaution, especially at an event like this. Ben Burkham, I know you will keep us posted. We will see you a little bit later on when Steve and I come back to go full on election coverage, buddy. Keep us posted. Thank you. Will do. Thanks, Grant. Yeah. You know, look, the cops are on it. I will say this. Dallas is a blue city, but the Dallas Police Department may be the greatest police department in this country. It used to be New York and LA were not so much anymore. Top brass has ruined it. Dallas still does their business here. Okay. Even in a blue city. It's a great police department. Good work on behalf of the, of the police department there. Now to the Clinton depositions. We've played some of Hillary's. I want to get right to Bill Clinton here. He was asked directly about all the girls on the plane and the masseuse on the plane. This guy, he's a piece of work. Bill Clinton. Watch this go down. Cut three. He's already stated what he saw and what he knew. And so what you're now asking him is given what you've now shared with him, does he think any differently about what he saw and what he knew? Thank you. Yes, thank you. I wish Shantae had told me I liked her, but I didn't think it was anything unusual. I can't tell you how many airplanes I've been on where rich people asked me to go and they had someone offering a massage. All these boats that you go on and all that, they all do that. And usually I don't do that. I'm not in the aunts. Well, that certainly raises some other questions about people offering free massages on boats, etc. But wait, hold on a sec. You know, I've been blessed to fly private every now and then. I got some friends who have. There's never been a masseuse on the plane. I've actually gotten to go on some yachts, some pretty nice ones. Masseuses he likes. He says he doesn't like massages. Do we have the picture of him in the hot tub, by the way? I mean, he looks pretty comfortable floating around with girls. I think this guy enjoyed this deposition and I think he liked looking at the old pictures cut 4. There's a girl over here. There's someone. Yeah, I don't know who that is. But he's also asking in the pool area whether other individuals. I don't know who that is. Okay, so you don't know. No. And then. Then there were other people in the pool. Okay, so do you remember who were they under 18? Would you do. No. Were they part of your traveling party? He's asking you. Yes, they were. I think. I think everybody there was part of our party. It was late at night, and I didn't. I also believe that there was a Secret Service agent there at the other end of the pool. And was this in public? No, it was a hotel room. And it. The sultan wanted us to stay there. And the whole. The water, this big pool was on the same floor, that there were several suites and that. So we went out. I swam around. I sat in the hot tub for five minutes or whatever it was, and I got up and went to bed. And then I have to ask this. Did you engage any sexual activity about this person? He did not have sex with that woman. I mean, sometimes it's a little painful to watch, but I don't know. Part of me thinks he's enjoying this. I wonder if he likes him young. Oh, gosh. Roll the next one. Quote, like them young. Why would Epstein say that about you? Are you asking his opinion? You're asking him to think about why Mr. Epstein would say something. Why would Epstein say that? She's asking you to try to be in Mr. Epstein's mind and guess at what Mr. Epstein would have thought about Flint likes them young. Referring to girls. First of all, that's not true. What's not true? That I have any interest in underage? I didn't say underage. I said. I said young. But it's still not true. Is an intern young? Yes. Is it intern young? Monica Lewinsky. Oh, boy. This is brutal. Now I understand. You know, Hillary Clinton got so mad. She's real quick. Hillary Clinton gets so mad. I know why she's mad now. I'd be mad, too. This is the one time I may defend Hillary Clinton. This guy, this dirtbag of a former president, put Hillary Clinton in this spot. Roll Hillary number two. After you learn that Jeffrey Epstein was convicted of sex crimes. Sex crimes with kids. Any of these photos of your husband with women being massaged on the beach, that concern you? I have no context for even answering that question. And I think, you know, obviously, the innuendo, all the rest of it, I'm asking A black and white question. I'm not putting any leading statements into it or adjectives. Did you do anything to determine what was happening in those images or on those trips that you. Once you saw these photos, once you realized Jeffrey Epstein was a convicted sex offender of children, did you do anything to determine what was happening on these trips with your husband? I don't find any of your questions to be relevant to the investigation. If a former president was traveling around with young women, you'll have a chance, you'll have a chance to talk to him tomorrow. Oh, and she, they did you see. Now, why could you imagine you're the wife. When you see your husband floating around in a hot tub at a hotel with a bunch of suites, connected and their own pool, who lives like this? Oh, Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Epstein live like that. Now it all makes sense. And by the way, Bill Clinton made it clear there was never any evidence of Trump doing anything wrong. No Trump in the hot tub. That was Bill. Again, it's worth watching the whole thing.

Prepare with rav.com up next, Joe Biden's DEI policies dominated science, but what others did, I, I don't know. They dominated science. And we're gonna talk about Fauci and he ought to go to jail. And that's the bottom line. Sorry. Welcome back, everyone. The unprosecuted crimes of big government, specifically from those involved with Team Biden, is frustrating to say the least. Do you remember when Dr. Foushee said this? It is an assumption that is okay to get infected and to get mild and moderate disease as long as you don't wind up in the hospital and die. And I have to be open and honest. I reject that. I think we should be preventing people from getting sick from. He's basically saying natural immunity doesn't mean Anything. And then we see this email from him. Cut 1. It is conceivable and possibly likely that those who have a serious systemic infection develop a high level of immunity that even surpasses that of full vaccination. That was from 2021. He never, ever said it. And he's never paid the price for any of this. And so many of them have never paid the price for this. Well, the group Protect the Public Trust has really made it a mission to call out the agendas of the left. That overtakes common sense and fairness. I want to bring in now to discuss this Director of Protect the Public Trust, Michael Chamberlain is back with us. Michael, welcome to the program. Thanks for having me, Grant. It's my pleasure to be here. Well, Michael, I stole this example, to be honest with you, from an editorial you wrote, an article you wrote, and it was fascinating because you lay out a whole bunch of these examples and it seems like there is no accountability for pushing agendas over fairness. Well, that's absolutely correct. You know, the American public, they expect that they're going to be treated fairly and whatever their political beliefs or their ideological leanings are not going to. Going to have a sway in how the leadership of this country treats them. But what we've seen in reality has been completely the opposite. And you point out the example of Dr. Fauci, and all this time they're pushing that everyone has to get vaccinated, no matter what. Everybody has to get vaccinated. You lose your job if you don't get vaccinated. But at the same time, they had access to this Israeli study that you pointed out that he was talking about that showed that immunity from, from having the disease, natural immunity, was even more effective than immunity from getting the virus. So they were making people, forcing people at the risk of losing their jobs, losing access to society, basically even those who had developed natural immunity and who didn't need to get the vaccine, and they expanded it to children and others as well. Let me pull another example from the piece that you wrote just to show the hypocrisy of people. This is the leader of the teachers union in Minnesota. Many of you out there may remember when some of the teachers walked out in protest of ICE. Well, in St. Paul, Minnesota, Minneapolis. These school districts are awful. These kids are not educated. Listen to the, to the teachers union. And I think that's what ICE did not count on, was that we were all going to rise up and be together and not help them do their, their dirty deeds. So being in community together and Sticking with everybody is what is going to make us strong and win this. And that means walking out on the kids. And Michael, you point out they're not doing so well educating these children. I think their priorities may be misplaced. You know, what would make their community stronger is actually teaching the kids how to read and write and do math. And that's something that they failed at miserably. If you look at the St. Paul's School District performance on the Minnesota standardized tests, only 1/3 of students were proficient in reading. Three out of every four students were not proficient in mathematics. Also, when you look at the people that they're trying to, so called, allegedly trying to protect the migrant students. There's a test for the English language learners that they take less than or only about 8% of students were proficient on that test. One of 12 of the migrant students that they supposedly care so much about were proficient on the tests that they give them to show that the teachers have been in St. Paul, have been teaching them. It's amazing. And I imagine this hypocrisy stems throughout all of government and almost every state, but it seems to me, and correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to be extra special when it comes to those on the left. Well, we discovered some documents from the Biden administration. And look, the Biden administration, they talked a good game about science, but when the rubber met the road, it was politics, policy agendas, and the narrative that drove science. We had these records that revealed that this document, this report that they created in 2022 to look into and create a framework for scientific integrity policies and practices, it put DEI on. As said, it was equally as important as scientific integrity. Even after earlier the memo that that document, that report was based upon said that political considerations should not distort or influence scientific findings. And yet it's all over. It's woven into everything that they did with regard to science. Well, look, you know, I say all the time the fish rots from the head. And this is exactly that situation. There you see the Biden administration all the way down to the teachers unit in Minnesota and so many other places. I appreciate what you do with protect the public trust and all the work that you guys are doing. Michael Chamberlain, please come back soon. We will. Glad to be here. It's always a pleasure. Grant, thank you very much. Thank you, Michael. I appreciate the work that you guys do. All right, listen up, folks. This one's important. America is reclaiming its position as the energy capital of the world. I'm going to tell you exactly where and why this matters, maybe to you directly. That's next. Welcome back, everyone. I want to take you out to Wyoming and what could be the largest natural gas discovery in four decades. Lost Soldier Oil and Gas is busy at work there. This is about reclaiming America's energy independence and how you can take part in this. Just watch this. This is really a joyous day in my life. This is the beginning. It's not just about the money. It's about working with all of you. I have got an obligation to make sure this is a legacy property for you and all your families. Trust me, I've got this. Let us turn it to the right, everybody. All right, here's what's cool about this. Everybody knew that the gas was there, natural gas, but they couldn't get to it. Well, guess who did. Lost Soldier Oil and Gas. And it's a great story. I want to bring in the president and CEO of Lost Soldier Oil and Gas. Mark Bruner is with me. Mark, welcome to the program, my friend. Well, thank you, Grant. It's good to be here. All right, Mark, tell me. Everybody knew about this place. It's in the Bison Basin of Wyoming. They knew the gas was there but couldn't get to it. Why? Well, it's. It's. What happened is that there was a uranium mine out here and it's where the nuclear arsenal was source for the uranium. And whenever Three Mile island melted down in the early 80s, they started closing the mine down, Kennecott did. And three years ago they finished the reclamation and we got permits to actually drill it. So no one could drill this for 50 years. It's surrounded by. With oil, large oil and gas fields, large amounts of infrastructure in to be able to transport the gas, but no one could drill it. So three years ago we drilled it. And it's by far the biggest discovery of my life. I think. It's a giant gas field and it's very much like what we call the Western Haynesville and the Utica Play. It's overpressured gas and we think the volumes are going to be very high. We so far found over five layers of this and we think based on our interpretation of our seismic, we can drill about 500 wells so far. Now these are all going to be horizontal wells and we think they'll be high volume. All right, let me just give people a little background of you, Mark, and you correct me if I'm wrong, two companies you, you've. You've done so well with Ultra Petroleum and Penco and $14 billion in shareholder profits you created for those two companies and you think this is the best find of your career, is that correct? I really believe so because these pay zones are so thick and the pressures are so high and it's really unusual to be able to find this. I'm only aware in the United States of two other plays. Like one of them is a guy named Jerry Jones that owns the Dallas Cowboys. He has a company that is one of the main players and this is probably the most important investment that he has. And you know, I would encourage everyone to, to compare what we have with what he has. And we're the only operator out here, by the way. There's no one else out here. All right. It's amazing. I want to tell people on the screen right now we're going to put it up, there's a QR code if they want to find out more information about how to get involved with your company here. And I've got a lot of friends that have already done this and I'm considering doing it myself as well. I've been talking to you a lot about it. It looks unbelievable to me. That is the QR code. That'll take you right to lost soldier.com that's lost soldier.com and I want to ask you this because the gas that comes out of this field, 40,000 acres, you plan on hooking into pipelines that are very close to send right to California where guess what, they pay a premium for this gas. Correct? Mark? Well, that's right. We're laying a five mile line and we expect when we finish some of the financing that we're doing at this time that we should be able to produce about 500 million cubic feet a day with in through these empty pipes. So we're hooking our wells in this year and you know, that should throw off about $300 million a year net to our interest. And within 10 years we expect to be producing up to maybe 10 times that. And so of course the ambition for us is to be the largest producer of natural gas into California. That's what we want to do. You know, typically you think of the ExxonMobils and those taking part in this and a private citizen being able to get involved in something like this is, is not the norm, is it? Real quick if you can for me? Mark? Well, I mean, you know, the major companies have most of the basins in the United States and this, the unusual thing about this is it's the only undrill basin that I'm aware of in the United States. United States. We've known for 50 years where all the basins are and they've all been drilled except this one. This one could not be drilled because no one could get any permits to drill it. Well, amazing stuff. I'm going to tell people how to find you. Mark Bruner, thank you for coming on the program. His company is Lost Soldier Oil and Gas. And you can go to lost soldier.com there's the QR code on your screen more than welcome. Just to scan that right there. It'll take you right there. And I'm telling you, you should really give a good look to Law soldier, law soldier.com that's lost soldier.com and make sure you tell them that Grant sent you over there. All right, listen up, folks. Democrats can't stand the idea of illegal aliens not voting. See what happened at Kristi Gnomes testimony next. Well, it is election day today and I have no problems with ICE agents showing up at polling stations. Illegal aliens shouldn't be at polling stations. So what are they worried about unless they're there? The deployment of ICE or CBP to polling places this November. There are no plans to have ICE officers at our polling locations. And I'm glad to hear that. But would you rule it out? Would you say it will not happen? Do you plan on illegal aliens voting in our elections? Exactly what do you care whether I say shop? If everybody is there legally and if you are an American citizen voting in the election, you have nothing to worry about. But again, this is proof that they're cheating. Craziness. It's going to do it for us. We got a big special though coming up. Steve Bannon up next. I will be joining him as well as we go through Texas, Arkansas, North Carolina and a Republican primaries, Democrat, too, but Republican primaries. This is an I heart podcast, guaranteed human.
