00:00Yo, Tampa, yo, SAS, how you guys doing?
00:04We ready to win?
00:06Are you ready to win?
00:09Are you tired of winning yet?
00:12No.
00:14We haven't even started winning, right?
00:19Okay, love you guys, too.
00:21You know why I love you guys?
00:23You're not the summer soldiers and sunshine patriots.
00:28You're the hardest core of the hardcore.
00:30You're the heart of the movement, right?
00:32You were with President Trump in 21.
00:34When they stole the 2020 election, he went back to Mar-a-Lago.
00:38Who had his back? You guys did, right?
00:45We have to, particularly after last night.
00:47Last night, I think, was one of the most historic.
00:49Were you guys all here in the audience last night?
00:52Was that historic?
00:54Laura Ingraham, Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson?
00:58Those were historic speeches.
01:01Make sure in your diary or the notes you keep, particularly to your kids and grandkids,
01:07you were in Tampa in 25 when that night, that Friday night,
01:12you had three of the greatest patriots in this country come down and lay it down, right?
01:17What did Megyn Kelly say?
01:22Megyn Kelly at the end said, it's a time for choosing.
01:27It's a time for choosing.
01:29And we just said, I think all of you, have all of you just read the President's latest True Social?
01:35Have you read it?
01:36No.
01:37Okay.
01:38So here, let's have a partner's discussion.
01:41We know or we're told that there's going to be a special prosecutor sometime named, I don't know, I believe in the next week or two.
01:50And that is going to go back to the very beginning of how the deep state tried to stop President Trump all the way to Crossfire Hurricane.
02:00Remember that?
02:01In the summer of 2016, where they tried to stop him from being President.
02:05And install Hillary Clinton.
02:08And with Hillary Clinton, Merrick Garland as Supreme Court Justice.
02:12The country would have been gone.
02:14Donald Trump had the greatest come from behind victory against the headwind of the deep state trying to stop him.
02:21And this is one of the reasons this special prosecutor is going to look into it.
02:26After he won, what did they do immediately?
02:29The nullification project.
02:32The phony Russiagate with Brennan and this entire crowd.
02:36Just a rollover from what they did in Crossfire Hurricane.
02:40It just continued on.
02:41Why?
02:42They wanted President Trump, they wanted to stop him from taking on the deep state.
02:48Now, think about it.
02:50He had the economy on a roll.
02:51He had everything on a roll.
02:52And then the Chinese Communist Party in 2020 dropped a bioweapon from the Wuhan lab, correct?
02:58No doubt about that.
03:01Then they stole the 2020 election.
03:05The special prosecutor, the special prosecutor.
03:09President Trump, take your truth social out.
03:11Let's deconstruct what President Trump is saying.
03:13He says we've got to look into the 2020 election.
03:17That is going to be purview of the prosecutor.
03:22So you have Crossfire Hurricane before he won.
03:25You're going to have the nullification project and the Russian hoax after he won to try to kill his first term.
03:32You're then going to have the stealing of the 2020 election.
03:34And guess what?
03:35Let's throw in January 6th.
03:37Right?
03:38January 6th.
03:39Now, I would strongly recommend in that, because I've argued for this from the beginning, that in that arc of looking at how the deep state has tried to stop Trump and the MAGA movement, you can easily fit in the Epstein situation.
03:59Right?
04:00If you want the full release of documents, the special prosecutor gets it.
04:04And here's why.
04:05Epstein is a key that picks the lock on so many things.
04:09Not just individuals, but also institutions.
04:12Intelligence institutions, foreign governments, and who is working with him on our intelligence apparatus and in our government.
04:21This is why it's a time for choosing now.
04:24We have to decide right now and back the president and say, hey, look, all of your great work.
04:30You just heard Tom Holman.
04:31You're about to hear Kristi Noem.
04:33Of closing the border.
04:35How did we get 10 or 11 or 12 or 20 million on Biden's watch?
04:41That was absolutely, that was a plan they had.
04:44That wasn't random.
04:45That has to be investigated and people held accountable like all these other things.
04:49This is why the Justice Department is clearly overwhelmed with what they're working on.
04:53The FBI is overwhelmed.
04:54We only have two guys at the FBI.
04:56We have a handful of people at the Justice Department.
04:59The special counsel or special prosecutor can take on many projects and add people to it.
05:04You have to get to the bottom of how the invasion took place.
05:07Why we now have to put up $170 billion in the latest bill to do this.
05:14We have to have a time for choosing.
05:17Here's my recommendation we do.
05:19I call them the Tampa Resolves.
05:21And it's very simple.
05:23Coming out of Tampa, it's like, it's like the revolution.
05:25They had the, like Virginia Resolves and these, they would make these commitments to themselves
05:30before the Declaration of Independence.
05:32Number one, it's very simple.
05:34The deep state must be destroyed to free the American people.
05:40Is there any question about that?
05:42Is there any question about that?
05:45We have to destroy the deep state and this is elements of the Pentagon, the Justice Department,
05:50the FBI, the CIA, certain elements that work under DNI, those 17 intelligence agencies,
05:56also parts of the State Department, the USAIDs of the world.
05:59That inner apparatus, inner apparatus controls the government.
06:04And when President Trump tries to do something, they're always trying to thwart his actions.
06:09Right?
06:10You see the leaks.
06:11When Holman's sending these brave men and women into Los Angeles to do these raids,
06:15like the raid about the children trafficked to the marijuana farm to work,
06:20they're waiting, they're lying in wait for him.
06:23They're lying in wait for the agents.
06:24They've got weapons to shoot.
06:25How does the protestors?
06:27Because somebody inside leaked it to them.
06:30Somebody inside leaks it to the media.
06:32That's the deep state every day.
06:34It must be destroyed.
06:37We're not free.
06:41The second resolve, the second resolve is quite simple.
06:47You don't give the deep state the consent of the government.
06:51Number four, it's your responsibility to destroy it.
06:54It's a sacred duty and a responsibility of the American people, American citizens.
07:00No cavalry is going to come and save you.
07:02No foreign country is going to come and save you.
07:04No doyce ex machina is going to come down.
07:07No fairy dust is going to appear.
07:09You have to do it yourself.
07:10Correct?
07:11It's our responsibility.
07:12And number three, whoever is not with us is against us.
07:19Right?
07:20If you're not with us, you can't be neutral in this.
07:23If you're with us, you're with us.
07:25If you're neutral, oh, I don't know, then you're against us.
07:28This has to happen.
07:29And President Trump, I think you're going to see in what he's identifying these prosecutors,
07:34he's going after it.
07:35He's going after who set up Crossfire Hurricane.
07:38He's going after the Russia hoax.
07:42He's going to go after the 2020 election and how it was stolen and who's responsible for
07:47it being stolen.
07:48Right?
07:49And I hope he gets to January 6th.
07:51You've got to get to January 6th.
07:53When I was in prison, you had these January 6th people that had just walked by the Capitol.
07:57And what were they?
07:58They were sitting there in prison for nothing more than supporting the President of the United States.
08:03Now here's why we have to do this.
08:06You are the tip of the tip of the spear.
08:09You helped President Trump, assisted him in winning the 16th election and come from behind.
08:15You won the 2020 election with 11 million more votes than we got in 16.
08:20No President's ever done that.
08:22He had 74 million votes and they still stole it from him.
08:25In 24, remember, on that morning, MSNBC and people are laughing at you and mocking you.
08:33They thought Kamala Harris, up until 7 or 8 o'clock at night, when it was quite obvious
08:38that some of the exit polls were correct and President Trump was going to win a sweeping victory,
08:42they're all smug as they've always been.
08:44They thought they were going to win until the last second when President Trump won a sweeping victory.
08:48This is what you've delivered.
08:51Your victories backing President Trump are unparalleled, not simply in American history, in all history.
09:01So now we have to get down to it.
09:03Because President Trump, and I'm a big believer President Trump's going to run again at 28,
09:08we'll figure this out, right?
09:10Until somebody can prove to me that you can get low-perbency voters without him on the ticket,
09:17then President Trump's going to the ticket.
09:20President Trump is unique in American history.
09:23You've had General Washington, you've had Abraham Lincoln, now you've got Donald Trump.
09:27The three greatest presidents we've ever had.
09:29And the reason he may actually be greater, when he went back to Mar-a-Lago,
09:34when the Republican Party abandoned him, and Fox News abandoned him,
09:38and the left was coming after him, and the deep state was then going to put him in prison,
09:42bankrupt him, smear his family.
09:44No American in history saw what was in front of him of all the challenges, right?
09:50All the challenges of going to prison for 300 years, of being bankrupt, of all —
09:54he made a conscious decision to come back.
09:57And you know why he did that? Because of you.
09:59He knew there were people out there that had his back.
10:02This is why — this is why we had the greatest victory come from behind victory ever.
10:07Twenty-four will be studied in the history books forever.
10:10Now, that coalition is built upon people like yourself with this foundational element.
10:15Of course, we got — you know, we got the tech bros and other people. That's fine.
10:19We'll figure this out as we go. We're building a coalition bigger than FDR's in 1932.
10:24That's what we have to continue to build.
10:26The only thing that can stop us is ourself. You know what can stop us?
10:31Cynicism. If we don't look into these things and expose these things to the American people,
10:40and that you can see the evidence so that you can be comfortable, hey, I fully understand it.
10:45If 2% or 3% or 4% become so cynical and say, hey, look, I just don't believe in anything anymore.
10:51We're not going to win any more elections. This is so obvious. It's so tight right now.
10:57We're going to win by 10, 20,000 votes. We need to have not just every one of your votes.
11:03We need to have you motivated as you've been motivated to knock on doors, to canvas, to get people out to vote.
11:09That's how we won in 24.
11:15We have to see this truth to the end.
11:18You know I'm a fighter. And this fight is the fight before us because we could do all the tax cuts in the world.
11:24We could close the border for a while. We could do all these amazing things, which President Trump is doing.
11:29He's absolutely correct. He's on a roll. He's the hottest any president's ever been. We're doing it.
11:35However, if we don't get into what really tries to control the country, the deep state, and take it apart —
11:43and by the way, if we got rid of, I don't know, 100,000 or 200,000 billets and people, we'd have control of this.
11:50And I mean cut the FBI by half, cut the CIA by half, cut three-quarters of the State Department, right?
11:58Cut the Defense Department by a third. Cut, cut, cut, cut every department and start cutting them in half.
12:07Let's go back to the Roman Empire. You ever heard of Cato the Elder? Heard of Cato the Elder?
12:13You guys are always the best. You're always a step ahead of me.
12:16So Cato the Elder was a super, very conservative senator in the Roman Republic.
12:23And he was — his wisdom, he was looked upon as a wise individual.
12:28But he had one obsession. And that was Carthage.
12:33He realized the Roman Republic would never be truly free, why they had this competitor, Carthage.
12:38So whatever was up, whether it was education policy or tax policy or a budget or anything, cleaning up Rome,
12:47you know, putting in new sewers, aqueducts, he always finished every speech, and he was the greatest speaker in the Senate.
12:54Carthago delenda est. Carthage must be destroyed. Why?
13:02He knew if he imprinted that time and time and time again in the Roman Senate,
13:08eventually people would come his way and say, you know what?
13:12We don't care how many wars it's taken to take on Carthage. It must be destroyed.
13:17That's the deep state. Deep state delenda est. It must be destroyed.
13:23And it's your responsibility to do it. If we don't have the president's back,
13:29you're going to be mocked and ridiculed. Oh, these are conspiracy theories. These are conspiracy theories.
13:34Well, you know what? The conspiracy theories that you guys focused on turned out they weren't conspiracy theories.
13:40They were conspiracy facts.
13:47The coming days and weeks, as these crises converge, after 10 years after President Trump came down the golden escalator,
13:53as they converge, trust me, you think it's been tough before, it's going to get very bumpy.
13:58On Monday, the situation in Ukraine right now, the NDAA, the Senate, is passing in secret an increase to Ukrainian arms
14:07of $500 million a year. I know this audience does not support that, but this is what the pressure is going to be
14:13in the Senate, in the House, among the deep state, to get us into war after war after war after war.
14:19And forget that the main war is the enemy within and what we've allowed inside our gates.
14:25The enemy within must be addressed. And inside these gates, the cities of Los Angeles,
14:30and Chicago, and New York City, with this group of radicals about to win and take over New York City,
14:35that's the enemy within. We have 10, Tucker said 61 million. I don't care if it's 10 or 20,
14:40they all must be deported. Mass deportations now, amnesty never.
14:45If you falter, if you falter, if you falter, if you quit, if you say it's too hard, I don't believe anything anymore,
14:54we will lose. But if you hunker down and say, I'm with this, as long as it takes, as hard as it is, right,
15:04as many sacrifices I have to make, I guarantee you, we will be victorious just like we were in 24.
15:10Tampa S.A.S., you're the best. Thank you very much.
