NICK FUENTES (HOST): We're also going to talk tonight about this new Politico article about how the groypers are taking over Washington D.C. Don't say I'm not doing anything. Never say the GOAT is not at work because while all of the parasites are backbiting and bitching and talking behind my back and slandering me, what's the debate in Washington D.C.?
…
The conversation in Washington D.C. is whether the percentage of groypers that control Republican staffing in the entire capital of our country is 40%, 50% or 75%. That's the debate. Rod Dreher says 40% of Republican staffers in the capital city of our country are groypers. But there are other sources in the New York Times and Politico, they say the number could be half, could be three-quarters. It's either half or three- quarters of all the Republican staffers in the House, the Senate, the executive branch of government are groypers.
We're doing it. As a matter of fact, we've done it, and we'll talk about it. There was a big piece in Politico. There's been actually a not insignificant number of pieces like this. There was a piece in the New York Times last week about how the Heritage Foundation, taken over by groypers. There was another piece this week with Rod Dreher. He sat down, I believe, with Jeremy Boreing, said DC is taken over by groypers. He begged the vice president to disavow us and the vice president refused.
And now the latest this weekend is from Politico. Again, they say the GOP has a groyper problem. They say it is impossible for the GOP to find good staffers that are not fans of my show or vaguely antisemitic or anti-Israel or anything like that. And they say that, again, anywhere between half and three-quarters of all the staffers are ideological allies of me and you.
Pretty big white pill. And all I'm going to say is, look, what we're doing is working. It's going to work. It's going to work. It's already working. And I actually did a monologue about this last week. Here's the thing. Our ideas are the ones that have all of the explanatory power because they're the closest to the truth. Our ideas have all the energy, they're the freshest. And so consequently, the best and brightest, the smartest young men that gravitate towards conservative politics, they're naturally just going to be groypers.
And the reason they're going to be groypers is because there is no alternative. Is anybody under the age of 35 in 2026 a neocon? It doesn't exist. Increasingly, they're not even Trump supporters. The enthusiasm for Trumpism is gone. They're not part of that old moral majority. They're not libertarians. The only ideas that have any currency anymore, especially among young, intelligent men on the right-wing side, it's our ideas. It's ideas that are like ours, similar to ours, adjacent to ours.
And consequently, because this has been the case over the past roughly five to 10 years, all those college kids have now become the interns. The interns have become the permanent hires, political hires. Those people then rise through the ranks. They become the deputies and then the chiefs of staff. And what happens next is really interesting: five, 10, 15, 20 years, those people are going to become chief of staff of major offices and then they're going to become agency heads and department heads.
And it's not outside the realm of possibility that in the next Republican administration you've got a groyper cabinet official. You have a groyper cabinet official out of the 25, 26 different federal departments, political appointees nominated, confirmed by the president and the Senate. Yeah, one of them, maybe some of them are going to be groypers. They're going to be people that are fans of the show. Certainly their kids are fans of the show. We'll be influencing policy at the highest level. This is what they fear. This is how power works.
So we're going to work through this article. It's very interesting and it's just a little lesson -- it's a little lesson in how the sausage gets made. It's a little lesson in how we're actually able to translate the things we're angry about, the things we care about, the values we hold, the things we talk about on the show and in the group chats and amongst each other. How do we take that and bring it to the policy-making level at the highest level of federal government? It's as simple as this. The game is not complicated. It’s actually quite simple.
