Well the virus has now killed more than a hundred people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world. | |
You don't want to frighten the American public. | ||
France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans. | ||
But you need to prepare for and assume. | ||
Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China. | ||
This is going to be a real serious problem. | ||
France, Australia, Canada, the US, Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam, the list goes on. | ||
Health officials are investigating more than 100 possible cases in the US. | ||
Germany, a man has contracted the virus. | ||
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
Japan, where a bus driver contracted the virus. | ||
Coronavirus has killed more than 100 people there and infected more than 4,500. | ||
We have to prepare for the worst, always. | ||
Because if you don't, and the worst happens... War Room. | ||

Pandemic. | |
Here's your host, Stephen K. Banham. | ||
Meanwhile, new polling shows President Biden's approval sinking fast amid the chaotic U.S. | ||
withdrawal from Afghanistan. | ||
In the latest NPR-PBS NewsHour Marist poll, 43 percent of Americans say they approve of the president's job performance. | ||
That's down 6 percent from July and the lowest mark for President Biden since taking office. | ||
Among independents, The president's rating fell 10 points from July to August. | ||
On the president's handling of the withdrawal from Afghanistan, 61% of respondents say they disapprove, including 71% of independents. | ||

|
And this morning, we are following two major stories. | |
Just minutes ago, we got the latest snapshot of our nation's economic recovery. | ||
The United States adding a very disappointing 235,000 jobs in August, with the unemployment rate now dropping to 5.2%. | ||
The big, big question today, with most benefits now gone, why are there still so many open jobs? | ||
And how much is the Delta variant? | ||
Okay, welcome to the War Room. | ||
It is Friday, 3 September, Year of the Lord 2021. | ||
Powerful, powerful, powerful day of just awful economic news on top of everything else the Biden regime has done. | ||
We told you if you just hold fast, this whole thing will collapse and it is collapsing. | ||
Now the Wall Street faction, the global corporatists, everybody that was the cheerleaders for the big steal is now coming to the reality. | ||
Stephanie Rule, that is not a disappointing number. | ||
It's a catastrophic miss. | ||
235,000 non-farm jobs added to payrolls versus what they thought was going to be 720,000. | ||
This is not an airball. | ||
This is not even good enough to be called an airball. | ||
And we had to start off with MSNBC sinking fast. | ||
That's MSNBC. | ||
And I'd like to have a hat tip to the war room posse into the war room. | ||
What have we been hammering for the last week? | ||
The Economist, Politico and now NPR Marist about the independence. | ||
You got to focus on the independence because of weight. | ||
It's not just as overweighted to Democrats these polls, but the Democrats are still all in for for Biden. | ||
All of that last poll showed 85 percent. | ||
It broke the 90 mark. | ||
But it's the independence. | ||
It's the independence. | ||
It's the independence. | ||
And those numbers are from the mid to low 30s. | ||
Didn't even get to right track, wrong track. | ||
MSNBC reporting this morning on Morning Joe. | ||
Biden's approval numbers sinking fast. | ||
You know who knew this? | ||
Joe Manchin the other day when he gave the talk to the Chamber of Commerce or to the business group in West Virginia. | ||
He says, hey, there's so much other stuff going on. | ||
I think we've got to slow down on this 3.5 trillion dollar spending orgy because that's what it is. | ||
The Biden's regime is now in its death throes, okay? | ||
And we've got to press the bet by the end of September. | ||
We told you the next 30 days are going to be cray-cray, and here's why. | ||
They've got to come back and try to buy off the American people. | ||
In order to do that, they need your permission. | ||
They need to get a raise on the debt ceiling, and guess what? | ||
You're not going to give it to them, okay? | ||
You're going to stiffen the spine of these gutless Republicans that sit there and go, Don't think we're going to do it, because the economy's imploding. | ||
Steve Cortez has got tweets out already. | ||
The undercard, when you get into these numbers, it's far worse than the headline. | ||
Far worse than the headline. | ||
And particularly for minorities. | ||
African American unemployment exploded up to 8.8%. | ||
Of course, just like any progressive administration, the wealthy, the Wall Street cronies, the corporatists, the party devils, they're doing fine. | ||
The people that get the burden put on are working class folks, and people are finally now waking up to that. | ||
We've got a huge show today. | ||
Terry Schilling from American Principles Projects in the studio as my co-host today. | ||
We've got Liz Yor is going to be here for the first hour. | ||
We've got Ken Paxson, the Attorney General of Texas, is going to join us because they're also in meltdown on the Texas heartbeat bill. | ||
Total meltdown on that. | ||
There's also one-third of the kids You know, there are big humanitarian moves in Afghanistan and those places. | ||
One-third of the children, they've allowed to come to the United States. | ||
The President Trump said, no, you've got to stay there, because at least you've got people supervising you. | ||
One-third of the children here in the United States are missing. | ||
Are missing. | ||
The U.S. | ||
government does not know where they are. | ||
We're going to get to all that. | ||
We've got to start with Jason Trinidad. | ||
from strategists, one of the CEO strategists, a guy we bring on because he's, you know, he's not partisan. He's he is partisan personally, but as a strategist, he has a very cool opinion of this. | ||
Jason, you have warned us for months that this economic plan of Biden's does is going to take us back to stagflation. Tell us what your assessment is of these numbers today and where this economy is heading, particularly since they're calling everybody back to pass essentially $6 trillion of spending. | ||
Jason Trenner. | ||
Well, Steve, you know, Steve, what worries me is that, you know, we've described the current policy mix as a Hotel California policy mix, which is, if you remember the lyrics, you can check out anytime you want, but you can never leave. | ||
And that's one of the problems when you rely on this amount of fiscal and monetary stimulus, as opposed to free markets, is that you become essentially addicted to the stimulus. | ||
And then when things don't work out, as they didn't this morning, as far as the payroll number, there's going to be a strong tendency to spend more money and do more stimulus and do more things that really impede, I would say, real economic growth. | ||
And then things that create real wealth, which are things like capital spending, things that increase productivity, other things that create wealth over the long term. | ||
You've warned about we'd get in this situation where we're spending so much money and there was no fiscal restraints that would almost get like Japan. | ||
You could get into a situation of lost decades. | ||
Given your assessment and your warning about the inflation, you're worried about with no growth, which is stagflation, taking us back to the 70s. | ||
Where do you think we sit today? | ||
And is Joe Manchin trying to signal that we've got to get some rationality here? | ||
We can't even consider this 3.5 trillion dollar social spending, which I don't think we can consider the 1.25 infrastructure because it's very little infrastructure there. | ||
What are your thoughts? | ||
Are you afraid we're going to become like Japan in lost decades? | ||
Listen, I think it goes back to something you've been talking about for a long time, Steve. | ||
I don't think we can begin to very heterogeneous body politic and Japan basically has one culture, it has one political part. | ||
Let's reboot Jason so we can get him. | ||
You're getting too chopped up and what you're saying is too important. | ||
One of the things Jason Trent is talking about is what Cortez, Jason, and I have been saying and talking about for months and months and months. | ||
It's one thing to have a homogeneous society like in Japan, like in Switzerland, like in these places where we've had rapid, you know, massive runaway inflation. | ||
It's another thing when you have, particularly right now, the dumpster fire that is American politics brought on by the Marxism of the progressive left. | ||
Let's try to take our time, reboot Jason. | ||
There's so much economic news, I gotta tell ya. | ||
You think his numbers are bad now? | ||
You ain't seen nothing yet, okay? | ||
This is, we're gonna touch, we're gonna get into the high 20s among independents and say, this regime is out of control. | ||
Everything they touch, whether it's the southern border, whether it's our capital markets and our economy, whether it's geopolitics and national security, whether it's the CCP virus, COVID, right? | ||
It's just all nonsense, right? | ||
They have no control. | ||
These are supposed to be your betters. | ||
Remember, these are the ones, Trump, the unwashed masses of the deplorables. | ||
You're the folks that breathe through your mouths. | ||
You don't know what you're doing. | ||
Nobody around Trump knew what he was doing. | ||
Man, would people harken back, would the independents and even some Democrats harken back to the Trump days right now for some stability? | ||
Until we get Jason up, I want to go to Terry Schilling. | ||
Liz, thank you very much for joining us. | ||
Terry, I've never seen, I said it happened at midnight the other night, when we passed into September 1st, MSNBC was like live, they were melting down, and then when the Supreme Court I'm just kidding. | ||
five to four heartbeat bill is fine. | ||
I tell you what, hang on, we only got Jason for a while. | ||
Jason, let's see if we got you again. | ||
I wanna ask, are we entering a couple, no, it's not your fault, we always have these problems with the Skypes. | ||
The guys in Denver are fantastic, my production crew, I'm just kidding, you guys do a great job. | ||
Jason, are we entering an area, like a time like Japan's lost decades, where the American people are gonna sit there with high inflation, stagnant wages, stagnant growth, no opportunity. | ||
Well, I would say stagflation is a significant risk. | ||
The risk is growing. | ||
In my opinion, Japan is a bit different because they essentially have a very homogeneous society and one political party. | ||
The U.S. | ||
will not stand for it. | ||
There will be a continuation of massive populism. | ||
The question will be whether it comes from the left or whether it comes from the right. | ||
But if you have a period, just given the social construct of the U.S., a period in which you have higher inflation and weak growth, that is going to be an extraordinarily politically volatile period of time. | ||
And I think you've seen that. | ||
I think that started four or five years ago. | ||
I think President Trump was one of the first To have the courage really to talk about the deal that we made with China, if you want to call it that, and the fact that it really just benefited a small number of people. | ||
I'd say our monetary policy has largely benefited just a small number of people as well. | ||
And so I think we're at risk of flirting with that outcome. | ||
I just don't think that politically, the U.S. | ||
is, and this is a good thing, It won't stand for it. | ||
I think that there will be a very strong pull to change things if we continue down this road. | ||
Let me ask you, they're coming back. | ||
Nancy Pelosi understands politically what they have to do. | ||
He's trying to buy off the working class and the middle class with this 3.5 trillion dollars. | ||
As you see it today, given he has no political capital, and even MSNBC is reiterating this, with the Economist, NPR, and the political polls all kind of lining up on top of each other. | ||
You know, approvals in the mid to low 30s by independents, which is really the proxy for the country. | ||
Do you think, obviously Republicans have to stand up, but what argument are they going to make that you need this 3.5 trillion? | ||
The irony, Steve, is that, as you know, is that there's a tendency to spend a ton of money. | ||
And then when it doesn't work, use it as an example of how you should have spent even more money. | ||
And so you quite never, as I said, it's a Hotel California, you know, you can you can check it anytime you want, but you can never leave. | ||
And that will be the trust me as if the economy is slow in the fall here, there's going to they're going to use that. | ||
As a very strong incentive to extend things like supplemental unemployment insurance or the eviction moratorium or to reinstitute them. | ||
And to me, that's something that gets in the way of free markets. | ||
And I hate to stand on my soapbox here, but free markets, in my opinion, are the best way to allocate scarce resources. | ||
It's not small groups of people, especially not small groups of unelected people like the | ||
To do that how buying a hundred and twenty billion dollars a month in Treasury securities and mortgage securities Helps the average person that's out of a job Is beyond me or how it helps climate change is a whole other you know story in and of itself, but I could go on but I I think the main The main justification will be that we just didn't spend enough. | ||
We have to spend more and By the way, Joe Biden's supposed to address the nation here at 10 o'clock. | ||
He's running late. | ||
They wanted to preempt war room. | ||
He didn't want Bannon to get in front of this, right? | ||
So Joe Biden's trying to step on his table. | ||
We beat him to the punch. | ||
We had Jason Trennard on. | ||
Jason, how do people... Here's the amazing thing. | ||
If you look at Trennard and Cortez, since the very beginning, They've been absolutely dead spot on, and they said we're going to come to this day when it's obvious the economic and financial, the fiscal monetary plan are imploding, they're not working, and they're going to try to double and triple down, and that's exactly what they're going to do. | ||
Jason, how can people follow you on social media or go to your website? | ||
How can they get more information about you? | ||
Yeah, just www.JasonTrenner.com is the best way, or StrategusRP, StrategusResearchPartners.com. | ||
You see, Jason advises the biggest guys on Wall Street, but his heart's with the people. | ||
Jason Trent, thank you so much for being on The War Room. | ||
We love you, brother. | ||
Thank you, sir. | ||
Jason Trent is a good man. | ||
Smart guy. | ||
He and Cortez called shot from the beginning. | ||
We're going to reach this day. | ||
We told you. | ||
Don't be curled up about, you know, 20 new states, 50 new justices. | ||
Although, to talk about that again, I don't like the Supreme Court. | ||
You know why? | ||
It's Terry Schilling, Ken Paxton, and the great folks down at Texas Right to Life on the heartbeat bill. | ||
One word they never want to say? | ||
Heartbeat. | ||
They'd never want to say heartbeat. | ||
Isn't that interesting? | ||

Pandemic. | ||
With Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
War Room. | ||
Pandemic. | ||
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
Okay, I said in this town that the blowback is going to be intense on the heartbeat bill. | ||
And to the fact they will not say heartbeat, but man, all over, not just the media, the progressive left is in full meltdown. | ||
But here's what's interesting. | ||
Complete crickets by most of the mainstream conservative media, particularly Fox, I mean Tucker obviously, Being Tucker and being ahead of these things, it was all over it last night. | ||
But Fox, crickets on Fox, by and large. | ||
And for the Republican establishment, worse than crickets. | ||
I mean, like when they call for a response, Cornyn and these guys, can't be found. | ||
Right? | ||
Ted Cruz gave it to a spokesman. | ||
Right? | ||
And no offense, Ted's not a guy that normally wants to miss a microphone. | ||
That's one of the Ted Cruz's powers. | ||
Probably one of the most articulate guys in this town, one of the smartest guys in this town, and he's a messaging guru. | ||
Right? | ||
So when Ted's putting it out to his spokesman, that's signal, not noise. | ||
So Terry, you first, and then The Wall Street Journal, our next guest for the next segment is going to be Ken Paxson. | ||
The Wall Street Journal has a massive editorial, and they give you the Country Club of Republicans establishment view of this, And they ain't happy about any of it, but they're particularly not happy about Ken Paxton and what in the hell's going on down there in Texas. | ||
Terry Schilling. | ||
So here's the big thing is, this war right now, we already know what the left's gonna do. | ||
They're gonna amp it up, they're gonna try and codify Roe. | ||
They could even break the filibuster to do this. | ||
That's how sacred this is. | ||
Tell us about codifying Roe. | ||
What does that mean? | ||
Put that in English. | ||
So there's no federal law on the books that says that abortion is legal across the country. | ||
And they could codify it and make it a federal law, which would be very difficult. | ||
It'd be a much worse position than we're in now. | ||
Yeah, but Nancy Pelosi thinks she's got the vote. | ||
She's calling them back in the House. | ||
And the filibuster, this is big enough that they would try to force the filibuster to collapse around this. | ||
Right, I mean, look, my dad got elected in 2010 to Congress. | ||
He was in for one term. | ||
In 2012, they started up the quote, war on women. | ||
It's going to be that times a million. | ||
But, so we already know what the Democrats are going to do. | ||
They're going to ramp it up. | ||
What is the Republican Party going to do? | ||
What's the Reich going to do? | ||
And we're seeing what the business wing of the party wants us to do in the Wall Street Journal. | ||
They were very clear. | ||
They want us to punt. | ||
They don't want us to pick up this fight. | ||
And the silence is deafening from Republicans. | ||
I didn't realize that Ted Cruz hasn't been spoken out about it. | ||
His spokesman put out a statement, but it wasn't even a powerful statement, but his spokesman put out a statement. | ||
But this is his home state! | ||
You know, this is his home state. | ||
The people of his state are passing this law. | ||
He's normally very shy. | ||
He's normally very shy. | ||
Yeah, they're very shy. | ||
He hates the microphone, hates the cameras. | ||
But, look, the Republican Party is either going to fight or it's going to die. | ||
Because this issue has kept the Republican Party alive for so long, and how many... Hold it, but wouldn't stop when they didn't do anything. | ||
They didn't do anything. | ||
This is Trump came in and got the real judges that really backed this. | ||
They got the Mississippi thing. | ||
Everything that's happened is at the grassroots level. | ||
The Republican Party, this is what we didn't have time to cut. | ||
The best thing that happened last night was Chris Hayes gave an opening monologue of 12 minutes and we're going to try to play that and we'll put it up in the light. | ||
Everybody should watch it because he walked through how the agreement was the Republicans would run out and raise money but not do anything and not even talk about it. | ||
Right. | ||
Right. | ||
Not even talk about it. | ||
It was Trump. | ||
The PBS reporter yesterday said the 16 campaign is now just really starting to pay off permanently, right, with this. | ||
This is the new Republican Party built around the principles of Trump. | ||
And Liz, I want to bring you here. | ||
Here's what I think the left has missed. | ||
And Terry, this is why they don't want to say—let me give you some signal, not noise—they never want to say heartbeat. | ||
They never say heartbeat. | ||
They give a week. | ||
They give a week. | ||
Right? | ||
What was it? | ||
15 weeks here? | ||
No, it's six weeks. | ||
Six weeks and 15 weeks in Mississippi. | ||
It's always weeks. | ||
It's never heartbeat. | ||
Liz, here's why. | ||
I think with new technology, I think with these young people, this young generation, I ain't so sure this is the big issue that's going to galvanize a huge part of the country, because they always ask the question about abortions. | ||
They never ask the question, hey, if you can detect a heartbeat, are you okay with aborting a baby? | ||
Liz, you're up. | ||
Steve, this is a huge win. | ||
And strangely enough, the Republican Party is silent about it. | ||
And the other piece that nobody's talking about is that this is the issue of the millennials. | ||
They're full behind this issue. | ||
This is what galvanizes them. | ||
And of course, the left isn't going to say that, but the Republicans aren't either. | ||
So, you know, it's a huge issue. | ||
We're going to work through all the states, get the Texas law passed in all the states, fight Nancy Pelosi trying to codify Roe versus Wade. | ||
They know that they're on the wrong side of this issue. | ||
They had the issue for 50 years. | ||
It's game over. | ||
And we've got the issue. | ||
We've got the momentum and we're not going to let go. | ||
And, you know, the state old Republicans can just sit back and get out of the way because there's a train rolling down the tracks and we're going to win this once and for all for babies. | ||
And so I think, you know, that's the silence is to me signifying that this is a huge issue. | ||
They don't want to allow us to have the victory dance, and the young people are going to be behind this. | ||
Terry Schilling. | ||
Listen, this is all very real. | ||
So there are three reasons why they're melting down right now. | ||
It's because this is sacred to them in their church of human secularism, as we talked about yesterday. | ||
The number two reason is because it's very real. | ||
It's a very real threat. | ||
It could actually happen and they could actually lose. | ||
But in Texas today, 80% of the abortions will not happen, right? | ||
There's 80 to 90% of the abortions. | ||
Yeah, that's 150 babies lives will be saved every day in Texas. | ||
That's going to have a huge effect on the world and on Texas. | ||
Thirdly, they need something to fire up their base in light of Joe Biden being such a disaster. | ||
You have two very important elections coming up. | ||
Number one is the California recall with Gavin Newsom. | ||
There are news reports everywhere that they can't fire up the base. | ||
They can't gin them up. | ||
So they're going to try and use this abortion issue to do that. | ||
A few days ago, Glenn Youngkin versus Terry McAuliffe in Virginia. | ||
They have an off-year election. | ||
Remember, 2021, November 2021 in Virginia. | ||
It's going to be decided. | ||
They are within one point of Terry McAuliffe. | ||
In this blue state of Virginia, by the way. | ||
In the very blue. | ||
Virginia might as well be New York or Illinois or California in a lot of ways. | ||
Glenn Youngkin's within one point. | ||
They want to stir up the base. | ||
They think this is going to be their path to victory. | ||
We just can't let them. | ||
Glenn Youngkin and all the Republicans need to go on offense. | ||
They need to say Democrats want to abort babies after a fetal heartbeat is detected. | ||
A heart... Steve, they're not saying heartbeat for a very obvious reason. | ||
It humanizes the unborn child. | ||
We don't like killing things that have a heartbeat. | ||
We don't like Ending a beating heart and that's why they only say six weeks. | ||
These are evil people and we can beat them. | ||
I want to go back to the Millennials. | ||
One thing I've been saying for years, and particularly being on Capitol Hill, when you have the Right to Life march, there's a million, it seems like a million people show up, 900,000 young people. | ||
Of course, Fox or nobody covered it. | ||
No president ever went there until Donald Trump went there in person. | ||
Donald J. Trump went down there and spoke to it. | ||
But I said, this is a galvanizing issue for the young on the right, and they are so passionate about this. | ||
Liz, what do we need to do To form this into a, because this is a dividing line between the Country Club Republicans, and here's the thing, they're just going to have to like it. | ||
We understand that their progressive friends, when they go to their clubs or anything like that, will accuse them of backing the worst people on Earth. | ||
But if they want their tax cuts, if they're going to want their deregulation, they want all the goodies that we give them all the time, and then they turn against us, they're going to have to, they're going to have to accept this. | ||
So how, tell me how that's going to work. | ||
Liz, you were first, and then Terry Schilling. | ||
How are you going to enforce this as a major movement of the Trump movement? | ||
Well, it has to be maintained as a platform of the Republican Party. | ||
We have to demand that pro-life, vocal pro-life candidates, Are in every community, state, legislature, and in the federal government. | ||
We have to, you know, push out the old Republicans who aren't going to make this the seminal issue in 2022, as well as 2024. | ||
We saw that Donald Trump was not shy about promoting pro-life issues, going down to the very granular funding of abortion around the world by the US government. | ||
He put an end to all of that. | ||
We saw it can happen. | ||
And for the first time ever, including the Bushes and all the other Republicans, Donald Trump showed what a true pro-lifer could do, impact on our policies and on the public discussion. | ||
So, you know, in every college there's a pro-life group. | ||
In every community, there's a pro-life group. | ||
This is, you know, your precinct captains at a very strong and powerful level, and many of whom have been organized and in front of abortion clinics for 50 years, Steve. | ||
These people have been fighting on the front lines. | ||
They're not gonna walk away from the fight now, and especially when it's within our, victory is within our grasp. | ||
So it's all hands on deck. | ||
We have got to continue building on this momentum and demand from the Country Club Republicans that this is the issue that defines the soul of the Republican Party. | ||
End of story. | ||
So that's what I hope will happen in the upcoming election and in the campaigns as we start right now. | ||
We've got to go to work today on that. | ||
Offense, offense, offense, offense. | ||
And I want to read you something. | ||
A tweet from Jennifer Frey. | ||
She's a respected professor at CUA, at the school there. | ||
So she tweeted out and she said, I buried a human fetus that I named Felix in March. | ||
Felix had a human face, perfectly formed limbs, an umbilical cord growing out of its belly button, and ten fingers and ten toes. | ||
I know this because I held Felix in my hands and stared for hours at what my body had expelled. | ||
Felix's due date is coming up, so I don't have the energy to say much more than this. | ||
No matter what your politics is, I don't think you can or should deny the humanity of the unborn. | ||
When we talk about abortion, we are talking about two human beings. | ||
Proceed from that reality. | ||
Democrats can't proceed from that reality because you can't stop the beating heart of a baby without proceeding from that reality. | ||
That's why they're done. | ||
We have to go on offense. | ||
Don't defend the law. | ||
Simply say, yeah, I don't think we should kill babies with heartbeats. | ||
But you know what? | ||
Terry McAuliffe, or these Democrats, they want to kill babies after they're born. | ||
They want a taxpayer to fund these abortions. | ||
Go on offense. | ||
That's it. | ||
Offense, offense, offense, action, action, action. | ||
Ken Paxson is going to join us next. | ||
By the way, President of the United States was supposed to be, I should say this, Joe Biden was supposed to be there at 10 o'clock. | ||
Markets like stability. | ||
He's 30 minutes late already. | ||
Didn't want to walk on the, he didn't want to step on the open of the war room. | ||
Okay. | ||
Short commercial break. | ||

Interestingly enough, though, Willie, there isn't a gender gap. | |
We typically see a gender gap among Republican women. | ||
Here in Texas, you don't see that. | ||
So I think the strategy is mobilizing the Democratic base and also winning over some of those independent moderates in the state. | ||
To your point about overreach, Victoria, the Wall Street Journal editorial board is out with a new piece this morning titled, Texas's Abortion Law Blunder. | ||
Again, it's the Wall Street Journal. | ||
The board writes this, quote, This law is a misfire, even if you oppose abortion, and neither side should be confident the law will be upheld. | ||
Most laws delegate enforcement to public officials. | ||
This one delegates exclusive enforcement to private citizens. | ||
The law sets an awful precedent that conservatives should hate. | ||
Could California allow private citizens to sue individuals for hate speech? | ||
Or New York deputize private lawsuits against gun owners? | ||
Texas Republicans have handed Democrats a political grenade to hurt the anti-abortion cause. | ||
Pro-life groups have spent nearly 50 years arguing that abortion is a political question to be settled in the states by public debate. | ||
Yet now in Texas, they want to use the courts via civil litigation to limit abortion. | ||
Sometimes we wonder, the journal writes, if Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is a progressive plant. | ||
His ill-conceived legal attack against Obamacare backfired on Republicans in last year's election and lost at the Supreme Court. | ||
Now he and his Texas mates are leading with their chins on abortion. | ||
How about thinking first? | ||
Okay, we're back in the War Room. | ||
Joe Biden is still not, you know, taking the stage. | ||
He's supposed to be there at 10 o'clock. | ||
The economy's in a meltdown. | ||
Geopolitically, we're in a meltdown. | ||
We have an invasion on the southern border. | ||
We have no organized plan on dealing with the CCP virus, except forced vaccinations. | ||
And now Fauci's telling you it's going to be schoolchildren in a couple of weeks. | ||
It's totally spinning out of control. | ||
And you see their crazed Marxist ideology. | ||
And of course, The Wall Street Journal, who's been so right on so much. | ||
Remember, go back and this is the editorial page of The Wall Street Journal. | ||
Is dead wrong on every topic. | ||
They mock Trump. | ||
They mock populism. | ||
They mock economic nationals. | ||
They mock it. | ||
They ridicule it. | ||
They go after me personally, which I love, because I keep saying they're a bunch of stiffs. | ||
G. Joe and these guys, a clown show. | ||
A total and complete clown show. | ||
Dead wrong on every topic. | ||
Super neocons. | ||
They supported the fake wars in Iraq. | ||
The nation building in Afghanistan. | ||
On and on and on and on. | ||
If you want to know what to do as a country, read the Wall Street Journal's editorial page and do the exact opposite and you'll be fine. | ||
Okay? | ||
So now, we've got President Trump's endorsed candidate in Texas for Attorney General, Ken Paxson, who told us on the 20th, I think it was, the regime's phony, fake inauguration, that, hey, I'm going to be the tip of the spear. | ||
Where they're inside the Constitution, I'll be there. | ||
Where they're outside the Constitution, I'll fight them every step of the way. | ||
He's been the tip of the spear on everything. | ||
From the fake election across the board. | ||
And now he's being, he's being mocked and ridiculed by the clown show that is the Wall Street Journal's Paul Gigot and these guys, right? | ||
Dead wrong on every topic. | ||
And if you don't believe that Gigot, come in here one time and we'll just go through it chapter and verse, okay? | ||
We'll take what you said and what we said and we'll compare it. | ||
Clown show. | ||
And now they're saying, oh, Ken Paxton's actually a progressive plant. | ||
A progressive plant. | ||
Ken Paxton, Attorney General Paxton, what say you, sir? | ||
unidentified
|
Well, first of all, the Wall Street Journal doesn't understand how things work in Texas. | |
I didn't actually write the law. | ||
I defended it. | ||
I proudly defended this law, but the reality is I didn't have any say in what the legislature put in there. | ||
They decided what they wanted in there. | ||
They wanted to protect the unborn, and I'm proud to defend what they put there, but it's pretty funny to me that they're calling me a progressive. | ||
Oh no, Progressive Planet. | ||
You're even worse. | ||
You're putting up all these policies that are going to lead to some big Democratic sweep. | ||
I don't think so. | ||
Note the Wall Street Journal. | ||
Why don't you check the polling of Joe Biden today? | ||
I haven't seen the Wall Street Journal's polls. | ||
By the way, Wall Street Journal's polls are always off. | ||
They're always awful. | ||
Their political instincts are terrible. | ||
Their ideology is terrible. | ||
Here's their ideology. | ||
The Wall Street fat cats make all the money. | ||
And the deplorables pay the taxes and their kids go to fight the wars. | ||
Let's see the Wall Street Journal senior management team. | ||
How many of your sons and daughters have fought these wars that you've so advocated for and that your corporate clients, the defense industry and the Wall Street industry made so much money off of this that they've made out, right? | ||
Here's what you want. | ||
You want tax cuts and deregulation. | ||
That's what you want. | ||
And you want the working class in this country to pay taxes, allow their pension funds to take under your cheerleading To go and ship the jobs over to China because guess what? | ||
You know, everybody can get a coding job. | ||
Everybody can be a marketing assistant. | ||
Everybody can do that. | ||
Have no earthy idea about what human life is about. | ||
So Ken, tell me about this because right now there's a firestorm in this city by the left. | ||
They think it's going to be a big win for them. | ||
We think it's a huge loss because this galvanizes the millennials around the brilliance of putting in the heartbeat. | ||
But does it shock you that the Republican establishment is pretty quiet on this? | ||
unidentified
|
You know, not really, because it seems like when we have these issues where we have to go out and fight for change. | |
I mean, if you look at what happened with Roe v. Wade, the left went really far, obviously, and no one criticized them. | ||
And it's interesting to me that the establishment stays really quiet when we're trying to fight back and we do something really bold. | ||
That obviously hits a nerve with the left. | ||
They're apoplectic right now. | ||
Because you know what? | ||
This was a great bill. | ||
This was a bill that gives the opportunity to save the unborn. | ||
And it makes sense. | ||
It relates to the heartbeat. | ||
It relates to real life. | ||
The genius of it, and if Terry Schilling was the first guy to point this out to me, because I've been watching the coverage, and I'll admit, this is not my line of country, right? | ||
I'd love, and Terry and Liz know this, I'd love these guys. | ||
I support them. | ||
A lot of my family are very involved in this. | ||
It's just never something that's, you know, if you have issues you focus on, and not this. | ||
But I've got to tell you what I appreciate. | ||
Planned Parenthood's such a racket, and the Republicans have never taken out that $500 million a year that goes to pay for it and finance it, to really finance candidates against Republicans, which has always bugged me, right? | ||
And the Republican-controlled House never takes it out, just always in there, over and over again. | ||
Planned Parenthood has so much cash, they're all eugenicists, right? | ||
They have so much cash, they have the best lawyers. | ||
The best media, the best media consultants, all of it. | ||
They have always got it. | ||
This is David versus Goliath. | ||
Attorney General Paxson, what I love the most, he can't figure out what to sue. | ||
Chris Hayes actually goes through bills. | ||
He says the genius of this is that they've always got, he's thinking, doing stuff about Gitmo with Rumsfeld. | ||
He's walking through how they're traditionally structured and he's basically saying these guys understood this system They found a hack and they hacked the system. | ||
Attorney General Paxson, what do you anticipate and what should our huge pro-life audience watch for over the next couple days, weeks, and months ahead? | ||
unidentified
|
Well, so now this will go back to the process, but the great thing is as of September 1st, you know, life is being saved. | |
Babies that have heartbeats are no longer being aborted. | ||
And so every day that this stays in place, It's a win. | ||
And this will take up, you know, this will go through the whole process. | ||
But meanwhile, we have a Mississippi case that involves 15 weeks that my state filed an amicus brief along with 23 other states. | ||
You've got half the country taking a head-on approach to Roe v. Wade and saying, hey, court, this was all made up. | ||
The precedent keeps changing. | ||
States don't know what really to do. | ||
They don't know how to regulate this because every question has to go back up to the Supreme Court. | ||
Put it back where it belongs. | ||
Give the states the authority to decide this. | ||
New York can decide it one way, Mississippi another way, but put it back with the states where it belongs, because this has not worked. | ||
This is a disaster. | ||
Attorney General Paxson, we got a punch, but I got to ask you, any updates on the voting bill? | ||
I know I didn't check about it getting signed, implemented. | ||
What's the latest? | ||
Because that's been such a fiasco of these cowardly Democrats leaving the state, hiding, finally having to come back. | ||
Can you get our audience up? | ||
What's the status of that? | ||
unidentified
|
Awesome news. | |
It got passed. | ||
The Democrats, enough of them, finally came back. | ||
It was passed overwhelmingly in both the Senate and the House, and is, I believe, already been signed by the governor. | ||
If not, it's sitting on his desk. | ||
So, yeah, we've got a much better election integrity bill than I think we've ever had, and I'm looking forward to seeing it work and protect the citizens of Texas. | ||
And by the way, it even provides for more hours of voting. | ||
We already had about two weeks of early voting. | ||
Now we have more time each day to vote. | ||
For those who criticize it for restricting, it does definitely allow more time to vote. | ||
I gotta tell you, Attorney General Paxson, I think it's pretty obvious why President Trump endorsed you and endorsed you so early. | ||
So, you told us you're going to be the tip of the spear, and you have been the tip of the spear. | ||
Really appreciate it. | ||
Appreciate you coming on. | ||
How's your social media? | ||
How do people track you down and find you? | ||
unidentified
|
Hey, thanks for asking. | |
KenPaxson.com and at KenPaxsonTX for Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. | ||
Sir, thank you very much. | ||
Can we go to Biden? | ||
Let's go to Joe Biden. | ||
Joe Biden is live at the White House about the economy. | ||
Let's go. | ||
unidentified
|
term. | |
No, that was not the worm that cut his audio. | ||
Remember, Joe Biden didn't want to match up with us with ratings at the start. | ||
So we're trying to get audio from the White House. | ||
By the way, they had a problem the other day. | ||
It's kind of bizarre. | ||
Nothing works under Biden. | ||
Nothing works. | ||
Remember, they're supposed to be so competent. | ||
The one argument they had, oh, Trump is incompetent. | ||
It's embarrassing. | ||
He's a barbarian. | ||
He's doing all this. | ||
And nothing they do is right. | ||
They screw up everything. | ||
To Paxton's point, it's the heartbeat. | ||
It's the way they structured this. | ||
And of course, now they're saying it's vigilantism and it's all that. | ||
OK, let's go. | ||
Let's go. | ||
Let's go. | ||
We got Biden's sound. | ||
Let's hear it. | ||
And compared to where we are today, the number of people filing new claims for unemployment each week is down 57 percent. | ||
Down 57 percent. | ||
Child poverty is down nearly 50 percent. | ||
We're no longer seeing long lines of people waiting for boxes of food to be put in their trunk after waiting for hours, or sometimes up to two hours. | ||
The unemployment rate is down from 6.3 percent to 5.2, and I believe it's going to continue to go down. | ||
And it's no wonder that last week's Gallup Poll found that 72 percent of Americans think that now is a good time to find a quality job. | ||
At this time last year, that number was 30 percent. | ||
And that's the mark of an economy where regular people can see a place for themselves in the economy. | ||
You know, the holidays we celebrate this weekend, the holiday Labor Day, is about honoring the dignity of work, honoring the American worker, That's what our economic strategy is all about as well. | ||
It's about growing our economy from the bottom up in the middle out, providing some extra breathing room for families. | ||
And my dad would just say just a little breathing room, creating an environment where employers have a truly competitive to compete, compete for workers by providing higher wages and better benefits. | ||
That's what's happening. | ||
Wages are up, especially for working class Americans. | ||
Even so, Even with the progress we've made, we're not where we need to be in our economic recovery. | ||
There are two critical tasks ahead this month to get us closer to our goal and to take the next steps in our recovery. | ||
And the first, we need to make more progress in fighting the Delta variant of COVID-19. | ||
This is a continuing pandemic of the unvaccinated. | ||
Since becoming President, I've ramped up testing, secured enough vaccine for every single American, and gotten 175 million Americans fully vaccinated. | ||
Still, still too many have not gotten vaccinated, and it's creating a lot of unease in our economy and around our kitchen tables. | ||
Today's report shows that the steps we've taken, passing the Rescue Plan and vaccinating 175 million people, Make our economy capable of growing and adding jobs even in the face of this continuing Delta surge. | ||
Strengthen our economy very different from the way things were last winter. | ||
You know what? | ||
I can't take this anymore. | ||
It's too much knowledge. | ||
This is why today's job report isn't strong. | ||
unidentified
|
This is why today's job report isn't strong. | |
You know why this guy finished last in his law school class? | ||
No, no, no. | ||
This guy... And the speech right has got to get better. | ||
Build back better. | ||
You've got an imploding economy. | ||
It's imploding. | ||
African-Americans, under Trump, lowest unemployment in the history of taking that statistic. | ||
Now it's at 8.8%. | ||
They're bearing the brunt of this, along with working-class people everywhere. | ||
Complete disaster. | ||
We have breaking news that's more important than Joe Biden babbling. | ||
Here's what he's going to say. | ||
What did Jason Trenner tell us? | ||
He's going to come back and double down. | ||
We've got to spend more money. | ||
Yeah, we haven't spent enough, we haven't spent enough, you know, stimulus. | ||
We haven't spent five or six trillion dollars since the CCP virus hit us. | ||
We got to spend more. | ||
That's why you really got to spend the 3.5 trillion. | ||
Just need one more. | ||
Got to do it again. | ||
This is death spiral. | ||
Remember, every time that the debt goes over the GDP, total face amount of debt goes over GDP, every economy in the history of the earth since it's been monitored collapses. | ||
And every guy says it the same time they do it. | ||
This time it's totally different. | ||
Right? | ||
Well, the math doesn't lie. | ||
Dick Durbin's weighed in. | ||
The war room's been lighting him up and Dick Durbin weighed in. | ||
Terry Schilling will let you break this news if Denver can put the story where we got it. | ||
Dick Durbin's already made a huge announcement here about the heartbeat bill. | ||
So I want to speak to this. | ||
So Dick Durbin, he chairs the Judiciary Committee. | ||
He just announced that he's having a hearing on the Texas abortion law. | ||
In the Senate. | ||
Senate hearing. | ||
In the Senate. | ||
And he's calling this the shadow docket. | ||
I just want to address Dick Durbin right now. | ||
Senator Durbin. | ||
Dick. | ||
Get right with God, man. | ||
You were born Catholic. | ||
Get back to the church. | ||
Come back to the church. | ||
Protect the unborn. | ||
Give up this fight. | ||
You're getting old. | ||
You're sick. | ||
You're going to have to face God eventually. | ||
And he's going to hold you to account for all of these little babies that you have helped destroy. | ||
You are going to be held accountable. | ||
Please, get right with God, man. | ||
Give it up. | ||
Give up this fight to protect the ability for doctors to make money off of killing babies. | ||
Please, Dick. | ||
You see, this is a great thing about Schilling and Yor. | ||
Hope always springs eternal for these two, because they're very religious and they're very good people. | ||
I think Dirk Durbin's a demon, but that's okay. | ||
By the way, a vessel of the Holy Spirit, but a demon nonetheless. | ||
Liz Yor, what about Dirk Durbin now? | ||
They're coming back hard. | ||
They're going to come back with Senators. | ||
Liz is from Chicago, right? | ||
Chicago. | ||
She knows Durbin. | ||
He's my Senator. | ||
He's, you know, a baptized Catholic, as Terry said. | ||
Look, the president just said, his old man used to say, just a little breathing room, just a little breathing room for us, right? | ||
How about just a little breathing room for the baby in the womb, Joe and Dick Durbin? | ||
And he's gonna have a investigation into the Texas bill. | ||
It is time for Dick Durbin to hang it up. | ||
And Illinoisans, and this is the country, the state, of Phyllis Schlafly. | ||
And I'm sure your audience may know that Phyllis Schlafly was the pro-lifer who put the feet to the fire of the Republican Party and made them go pro-life decades ago. | ||
And but for Phyllis Schlafly, a great Illinoisan, we wouldn't be where we are today with this great Texas statue. | ||
And you know, this is... Hold, hold, hold. | ||
Hang on, hang on. | ||
unidentified
|
Whoa, whoa, whoa. | |
If it's not for Phyllis Schlafly, And the unwashed hobbits of the pro-life movement circa mid-70s. | ||
There's no Ronald Reagan. | ||
This is Ronald Reagan. | ||
Ronald Reagan, yes, was for economic growth. | ||
He was for the evil empire crushing the Soviet Union. | ||
But the other part of it, and the reason he had the grassroots support, It was, and I think the new theme of the Republican Party should be just a little breathing room for the baby in the womb. | ||
people. They're not clubbable. Right. I can't take them to cocktails on a Saturday night. | ||
That was the backbone of the Reagan, the Reagan grassroots movement. | ||
Was it not, Liz, your. It was. | ||
And I think the new theme of the Republican Party should be just a little breathing room for the baby in the womb. | ||
Just let's take Joe Biden and let's let's really focus on Dick Durbin and these Catholic Democrats that have been the vanguard of the. | ||
Pulse of death is the only way to describe it. | ||
And you know, look, there's another piece that we've got to recognize about abortion, why it fits this narrative so important. | ||
Abortion is the ability to have aborted fetal cells in the making of vaccines. | ||
And they're not going to give this up easily. | ||
Transhumanism. | ||
Yes, that's right. | ||
This is transhumanism. | ||
This is why it's their holy sacrament. | ||
It is the sacrificial death of children in the altar of globalism. | ||
And that's why they need abortion. | ||
Okay, hang on for one second. | ||
We've got about six minutes left and I want to make sure both you guys get a shot. | ||
A lot of the establishment in this town, the Republican establishment, are saying This is the way we're going to lose 2022. | ||
This is the way we're going to lose 2024. | ||
Run away from these people because they're crazy. | ||
Okay, shilling first, then leisure. | ||
We got about five minutes. | ||
I'm walking through why this could be the rejuvenation, and a guy named Donald J. Trump knew that. | ||
A shilling first. | ||
So this is Bushism versus Trumpism. | ||
Republicans are either going to do or die here. | ||
There is no Republican Party without the pro-life movement. | ||
That is a fact. | ||
It's indisputable. | ||
There's no Republican Party without the pro-life movement. | ||
So Republicans are forced to fight. | ||
You have to go on offense. | ||
You don't even need to talk about how pro-life you are. | ||
You just have to expose the extremism of the Democratic Party. | ||
Okay? | ||
This is a party that supports abortions after the baby's out of the womb Funded by taxpayers for 13-year-old girls without their parents ever even knowing about it. | ||
That's extreme and that's very, very, very unpopular. | ||
You know, Steve, they've done studies about this and they found that most Democrats don't know how extreme their own party is on this because the Republican Party doesn't view this as a swing issue. | ||
It's so dumb. | ||
It's why the Republicans have been losing. | ||
It's why Trump won. | ||
They don't want to know. | ||
They don't want to talk about it. | ||
They want the regulations and that's it. | ||
Go after Democrats. | ||
Tell them how crazy... There's so many Catholic Democrats out there, Steve, it's not even funny. | ||
Go after Democrats. | ||
Hispanics and African-Americans. | ||
This is a winning issue. | ||
If presented the right way, this is a winning issue with African-Americans who are very pro-family and Hispanics. | ||
The traditional Hispanics. | ||
Liz, yours. | ||
We've got a couple of minutes. | ||
Give us your pitch on how we make this central in that the Country Club Republicans and the Wall Street Journal is dead wrong. | ||
This is not going to lead to an absolute catastrophe. | ||
Yeah, don't for a minute think that this is a huge victory and an important victory. | ||
In every issue, in my opinion, impacting this country is a life issue. | ||
Whether it's the explosion and invasion on the border that's destroying the lives of unaccompanied minor children, whether it's the failure of this administration to do anything about human trafficking, whether it's this death cult Against, you know, primarily African-American, poor African-American communities where they plant the Planned Parenthood Center right next to the inner city. | ||
This is, you know, black lives do matter. | ||
And with respect to the two parties, it is the Republican Party that must elevate the pro-life vision and the pro-life ethic in this country. | ||
It will be a new day in America. | ||
We cannot be shy. | ||
We cannot be intimidated. | ||
We need to embrace this in all of its forms because you just look at this administration in the first nine months. | ||
They are, you know, they leave Americans behind in Kabul. | ||
They allow our good men and women to be killed in Kabul. | ||
They are allowing this massive invasion to destroy lives, not only American lives, but the lives of kids coming over the border. | ||
And most especially, this abortion sacrament that they have protected and poured billions towards has got to end. | ||
And we need to expose it. | ||
Every single person needs to talk about the reality of abortion. | ||
Those women who have had abortions and regret it, Those people who have been in Planned Parenthood and who have walked away from Planned Parenthood, the Abby Johnsons, all the Sisters of Life, all the people that are saving lives as we speak. | ||
This is the Republican Party. | ||
This is the new America. | ||
And this is the time to give a little breathing room for the babies in the womb. | ||
Thank you, Joe Biden. | ||
Terry Schilling, how do people get to you and how do they join American Principles Project? | ||
We want your website to melt down today. | ||
AmericanPrinciplesProject.org or SaveTheFamily.app, our big family membership program. | ||
And then I'm on Twitter and Getter, Jack, at Schilling1776. | ||
Tell us about the second, the one about the family. | ||
Why should people go to that website? | ||
I know they've been blowing it up. | ||
Why should they go there? | ||
So we're building, and I just need everyone to be patient because this is a big project. | ||
So we're building the NRA for families. | ||
I want to approach the NRA level of membership so that we can go in and make these guys pay a political price when they hurt families and hurt the unborn. | ||
So we're building this NRA. | ||
We're building a huge platform for schools to be held accountable by students and their parents. | ||
I want to come on later to talk more about that, because it's come along great. | ||
I'll check in with Rahim, see if that can happen. | ||
Liz, what's your social media handles? | ||
Your Children is my website, Y-O-R-E. | ||
I'm everywhere on social media, Elizabeth Yor. | ||
Mama Bears of the country, unite, let's fight, let's take to the streets, and save the unborn. | ||
Wow. | ||
Liz, I know I had you on to talk about the border. | ||
We're going to have you back on sometime real quickly, today or tomorrow. | ||
We'll figure it out. | ||
We've got to have Liz Schor talk about these. | ||
One-third of the children, under U.S. | ||
government authority, missing. | ||
We don't know where they are. | ||
Liz Schor's going to give us details about that. | ||
We'll figure it out. | ||
Liz, thank you so much for taking the time today. | ||
I know you're very busy. | ||
Terry Schilling, thank you very much. | ||
Short commercial break. | ||
Jack Posobiec's in the house. | ||
We're talking China, Afghanistan, the complete meltdown. | ||
Mike Lindell is going to be here. | ||
Breaking news out of Georgia. | ||
John Fredericks is going to join us. | ||
We're going to talk about Pennsylvania. |
