The following is a transcript from the Pro America Report.
Welcome to the Pro America Report. This is Ryan Hite, your guest host today, filling in for Mr. Ed Martin, who’s out on assignment. I’m glad to be with you, and we’ve got a lot to cover today.

And we appreciate you doing all those things and being here with us today.
So, before we get into the WYNK for today, what you need to know, I want to go ahead and let you know first, we are going to replay John Schlafly’s interview from yesterday. I think it’s incredibly important. It’s on topic for a little bit of what we’re going to continue to go into today. So, I want everyone to hear that again. But we have a new guest who’s never joined the show before, that I was happy to talk to, and again, we’re going to kind of flesh out this conversation that we’ve been having this week about everything that’s going on about Trump, the deep state, and all of the establishment weight that is coming down from big media, big government, our direct. And so those are a couple of great interviews I want to make sure you stick around for them.
But let’s get into it today, so what you need to know. If you have been listening along with us this week, you’re aware it almost feels like we’re repeating ourselves when we talk about what we’ve had to cover this week from the Trump arraignment to the media glee over his indictment in this upcoming court case. Yesterday, we talked about the big media, Biden administration, the Democrats, empowering Trump without even realizing it with what they’re doing to him. Tuesday, we talked quite a bit about a January 6th hearing that was going on, some truth being spoken in Congress on that topic for the first time since Nancy Pelosi’s unselect committee on January 6th.
All this ties together in an incredibly important way, and I’d like to highlight that for you. I’d like to bring this all together and point towards something that’s another good resource you should look at, but also just kind of put this into a different light. So, here’s what you need to know.
To sum up, here in America, we will never find solutions if we can’t see the problems. Let me say that again: America will never create solutions if we cannot see the problems.
This, actually, just in full transparency, this wonderful phrasing comes from a similar phrase from the great Christian author and writer and thinker, G.K. Chesterton, but I think it’s incredibly applicable to where we are, especially this week in America and how revealing it is to not just now, to not just the last few years, the Trump era, but really to the last several decades, the 20th century rolling into the 21st here in America.
And this is an incredibly important point that I think Tucker, in his episode 3 this week on Tucker on Twitter, really nailed down that we need to talk about and understand. And I want to make sure that our wonderful listeners here at the Pro America Report understand this point. So first, let me highlight that. Go and watch if you haven’t, after you’re done with this segment and this radio show on the air, wherever you’re listening, make sure you go and watch episode three of Tucker on Twitter. I believe he titled it “America’s Principles Are at Stake.” And I’d like to riff off that a little bit and explain maybe a couple of other things.
Tucker went straight for the heart of why the hatred has mounted so much against Donald Trump from media, from government. And Tucker also did an excellent job, and so did John, which is why we’re going to play this John Schlafly, really kind of nailing down what the deep state is, what that means. So let me encourage you. Here’s the problem, and we can’t fix it if we don’t know how to see it.
As we’ve just discussed, here’s the problem. It’s multifaceted, so it feels sometimes difficult to get into all these things, but let’s go down a couple of different paths first.
So first, do not listen whenever big media, whenever big government, whenever whatever big it is, your academia, all of academia, all of Hollywood, all the media, all these places tell you that this deep state nonsense, this is just a conspiracy. No, this is a legitimate way that has long been used in, you know, synonymously with other things.
Phyllis Schlafly called it the Kingmakers in her 1964 work, “A Choice, Not an Echo.” She ran forward with that. I know that the listeners of Rush will call it the establishment. We’ve called it the deep state. We call it the elites, the ruling class. There is a faction of people that are this permanent government. I think that’s the phrasing that John Schlafly used, a good phrase, “permanent government.” This massive, just blob of bureaucrats and political appointees and all these people who are completely unelected and unaccountable. They do not change over every time we have an election. They do not get replaced in office when we replace our legislators and our President, and then he replaces the cabinet members. And even when a Supreme Court Justice retires or dies and someone is in, you know, filled into his spot, federal judges retire, we see the changeover here, but there’s this massive world, this huge administrative state that never changes. I can’t think of a better word for that or a better phrase or name for that than the deep state. This huge blob that never goes away, these people, like Dr. Anthony Fauci, who became entrenched for decades, 50 plus years. He was a federal employee.
These people get a hold of power, and what’s the natural—you know, what is the natural human response? Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
This, so when we’re looking at it and never let anyone, first off, tell you that this isn’t a real thing, it is. There’s this huge blob of people, and I—I don’t—not people that are blobs, you know what I mean? This giant conglomerate, this thing, it’s not a lean and sleek federal government. It’s not divided into departments and, you know, checks and balances and different—there’s the word branches, is what I was looking for. It’s not that anymore.
It’s this giant, amorphous thing, this blob of bureaucracy, and they are permanently there. They’re permanently in power. It never changes over.
And they hate it whenever anyone comes and let alone, you know, challenges their power but just acknowledges their existence. That truth speaker is a threat.
So, when a Tucker Carlson hops on Twitter and begins to pull back the layers and talk about how their hatred of Donald Trump has actually connected back to the Bush administration and weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, and how we’ve destabilized regions of the world, when it’s someone like a Tucker speaks that, they hate it. When a Donald Trump steps forward and starts to peel these things back, as Tucker so aptly pointed out, some of these things about WMDs and different points at which the government has known and lied about things in order to pursue their own agenda of power accumulation and money making and all of these things, whenever someone steps up to speak the truth, that person becomes their primary target.
And here’s what you need to know: This is the problem. We have a lot of problems in America. Make no mistake, we have policy issues, we have disagreements, we have morality that we must talk about, we have free speech that must be covered.
But above all there is this incredible power of speaking the truth and making sure that those people are heard. Shutting down the arc, and again I feel like, you know, we’re talking over the same topic here, but it’s incredibly important. It has come up several different ways with Ed this week at the Field House hearing on January 6th, conducted by Congressman Matt Gaetz, with Tucker’s video, with Trump’s arraignment. All these things point toward the same problem.
We need to draw the common thread across it all and understand that. And I think it’s incredibly important until we do, we will never be able to address the problem. So, that’s what you need to know. If we’re ever going to fix it and find solutions, we must see the problem. There you go.
Join us at the next segment. We’re going a little bit deeper into this and what our response is. I hope you come back. Don’t forget, go to proamericareport.com and you will find all these things, all the resources, the links that we’re talking about, plus the standalone segments, and you can send them to your friends later.
