I think the single biggest thing they ought to try to push through, and they won't even touch. They won't even touch. They won't debate it. They don't want to debate it. Here's why. The Chamber of Commerce wing of the Republican Party loves illegal immigration, and they love the HB1Vs. They love all the scams, right? So the donor class – and this is why – I know we're only going to show for a second.

How does illegal immigration impact the Republican Party?

President Trump right now is under tremendous pressure. The reason Russ' vote has not pulled the trigger – on the deconstruction of the administrative state during the Schumer shutdown is President Trump's under enormous pressure from donors and RINO senators saying, oh, we can't do this. It's going to hurt GDP. You can't let federal employees go. He's under tremendous pressure not to either put in a Title X escalatory ladder or on the insurrection in these various cities and states, or to invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807. The pressure around President Trump, the pressure around him right now not to get a peace deal in Gaza. People, I don't think, realize the pressure on him every day not to follow his natural instincts in the MAGA plan is enormous.

Unknown 1:08

And that's why I admire him so much. He's fighting the good fight every day. Plus, he's fighting the guy supposedly on his side. This is why, mark my words, they all hate Trump up there, all the establishment. They're just waiting for him to go.

What pressure is President Trump currently facing?

Unknown 1:24

And this is why, Eric, now more than ever, I am down hard for Trump 2028. We cannot lose this guy. It's once in a lifetime.

Steve Bannon 1:34

Once in a lifetime. This is why I admire you so much, Steve Bannon. You are the smartest man in the room, any room you walk into. Bannon, your show, I appreciate it. We should do this more often, by the way. We'll see you tomorrow. We'll see you tomorrow, my friend.

Unknown 1:46

Let's try to do it. I want to do it every day, but as you know, I'm slapping the show together with about five minutes to go. Anyway, Eric, we love it. We're here for you when you're ready. Thank you for keeping the audience. You too, brother. Thank you, sir. Appreciate you. Okay, we got the one and only. We got to talk about a warrior. We got Dr. Navarro on deck.

Dr. Peter Navarro 2:02

We got a cold open for Dr. Navarro. Let's let it rip. Madam Attorney General, let me ask you this question.

What are the implications of the Insurrection Act of 1807?

Dr. Peter Navarro 2:08

Were you consulted by the White House before they deployed National Guard troops to cities in the United States?

Unknown 2:17

I am not going to discuss any internal conversations with the White House.

Dr. Peter Navarro 2:23

You won't even say whether you talked to the White House about this?

Unknown 2:26

I am not going to discuss any internal conversations with the White House with you, Chair, Ranking Member.

Dr. Peter Navarro 2:31

I notice that. What's the secret? Why do you want to keep this secret? The American people don't know the rationale behind the deployment of National Guard troops in my state. The word is, and I think it's been confirmed by the White House, they are going to transfer Texas National Guard units to the state of Illinois. What's the rationale for that?

Unknown 2:50

Yeah, Chairman, as you shut down the government, you voted to shut down the government, and you're sitting here, our law enforcement officers aren't being paid. They're out there working to protect you. I wish you loved Chicago as much as you hate President Trump. And currently, the National Guard are on the way to Chicago. If you're not going to protect your citizens, President Trump will.

Dr. Peter Navarro 3:11

Been on this committee for more than 20 years. That's the kind of testimony you expect from this administration. A simple question as to whether or not that a legal rationale for deploying National Guard troops becomes grounds for a personal attack.

Unknown 3:23

I do have a question. In the merger that took place... Which merger? You've listed many. ...involving American Express GBT, I understand that Brian Ballard... longtime backer and head of the law firm where you worked was instrumental in lobbying the Justice Department to drop that lawsuit. It was dismissed. So it's not subject to a court review. What conversation did you have with Mr. Ballard? Senator Blumenthal, I
