War never changes.
Here it comes!
There it is!
Get in!
We are very disappointed, if I'm honest.
We would expect more bravery, expected some less, some bold decisions.
The Alliance is taking decisions as if they are no war.
No, we have too long until Madrid Summit.
We will wear in any difference.
It's hard to be optimistic here.
On the other hand, We appreciate that NATO consider the menace of the Russian using chemical weapons visible.
It means that aliens is starting to understand the level of the Kremlin aggressiveness.
We also appreciate calling on the China to take the actions to stop the war in Ukraine.
We are sure that that war best in the East should be addressed this issue.
That should be cooperate But in general, my attitude that, you know, everything in our life, it's necessary to happen in time.
I think it's in time, it's now.
joe biden
The single most important thing that we can do from the outset is keep the democracies united in our opposition and our effort to curtail The devastation that is occurring at the hands of a man who I quite frankly think is a war criminal.
unidentified
And I think it will meet the legal definition of that as well.
steve bannon
Okay, we got Lee Smith, we have Ben Harnwell, we're gonna have Joe Allen, breaking news and some polling on transhumanism all this hour.
Of course, we got, very honored to have in the studio, co-host Royce White, a populist nationalist running against Omar in Minneapolis, and did a star turn last night on Tim Pool.
Wow, people were just raving about your appearance out there, so just fantastic.
Let me get Lee Smith in here.
Lee, you got this amazing piece out And I even want you to read the headlines of it because it goes against, it so cuts across the mainstream media.
And Lee Smith's not a guy, you do not have the pom-poms on for Putin or the KGB or anything like that, so they can't smear you.
You're one of the top investigative reporters.
You've been on this Ukraine story from day one and the Russia hoax and all that.
So walk us through, Lee, walk us through exactly what your piece is about.
lee smith
Yeah, well, I mean, the fundamental point, well, first of all, Steve, thanks again for having me on today.
The fundamental point is this.
Is that Ukraine, the messaging that we're getting, American media consumers, the messaging that we're getting on Ukraine appears to be grafted onto a number of serial operations run against the American public, right?
It's still not clear.
It's still not clear what is in the interest here of the United States.
That's largely because for decades, the United States foreign policy establishment has had no clear policy toward Vladimir Putin. So why right now this is so vital and so important to America that it's not just about foreign policy but that it's filling the culture as well. So this feels awfully familiar to a lot of the other things that we've seen whether it was the vaccine mandates, whether it's the mask mandates, whether it's the nonsense about how
January 6th was an insurrection, whether I'm and we're going backwards here, whether this is about Donald Trump's the first impeachment of Donald Trump, whether it's about Ukrainegate, whether it's about Brett Kavanaugh, whether it's about Russiagate.
So what we are actually seeing here is this is at the, this is the most recent iteration of a series of information operations run against the American public.
It's not entirely clear why Ukraine has been grafted onto this, but the fundamental point is this.
The war in Eastern Europe between Russia or Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine, it makes absolute sense that there would be propaganda campaigns coming out of Ukraine and Russia, as I write in the piece, logic or lying as part of the logic of war.
The question is, why do we have that same sort of logic here in the United States when it appears that the United States were at peace?
But as it turns out, we're not.
Our establishment class is actually at war with working and middle class Americans.
And those propaganda campaigns are actually tied to genuine operations against the American public.
steve bannon
Lee, hang on for one second.
It's one of the reasons I wanted to bring you on with this piece before Royce White.
Royce has got a phrase, as I follow his writings and his talks, etc., called the double-cross and the triple-cross.
I think Lee has a way to lay it out.
You say double-cross and triple-cross.
Give me your assessment of what Lee Smith just told the audience.
royce white
Well, I think, you know, this is the four-player jump ball, right, between the free people, globalists, China and Russia, and you got your international dictatorships and your nationalist dictatorships.
And, you know, ultimately I think this conflict in the Ukraine is a war between globalist intergenerational kingmakers and a king.
And the ultimate goal on one end is to cripple one of the last strong nationalist countries, and on the other end justify it by campaigning and promoting it as a defense of human rights.
steve bannon
When you say last, are you talking about Russia?
royce white
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I honestly, this is the double cross and triple cross, and I've seen it, you know, culturally used against the black communities.
Yes, there is a claim to be made when a country invades or crosses another country's sovereign border.
but from their vantage point they view him as a threat to the globalist agenda and to this sort of authoritarian takeover in one government, one currency system, regardless of his moral position in this particular conflict.
steve bannon
Regardless of the evilness that he may represent.
You're saying structural?
royce white
Yes.
steve bannon
That he does.
Lee, is that kind of what your piece is getting at about the elitist and what's going on here and how it's presented here in the United States, sir?
lee smith
Well, there's something I didn't write about in this piece, but I've written about it before and I'll continue to write about it.
I think that one of the most significant facts of the conflict that we're seeing now in Eastern Europe, and of course, this has been totally obscured by the press and by the foreign policy establishment, Is this, right, is that while Joe Biden is digging in deep against Vladimir Putin and calling out Vladimir Putin, on the other hand, what's going on in Vienna, American and Russian negotiators are meeting, right, to give the Iranians a nuclear weapons program.
What's significant about this is we are right to say that our priorities are at home with the regime who is targeting us.
The real issue is, though, the people who are targeting us here at home are in fact partnered with our genuine adversaries abroad, right?
Whether this is the CCP, whether this is Iran, whether this is Vladimir Putin, there's a big puppet show going on here, right?
Joe Biden and others calling out Putin, saying this and that.
Putin is going destined to get rich from the Iran deal.
Iran will become an arms client and a nuclear client for the Russians.
So this is what's happening.
I agree with Royce that there is a larger movement taking shape here.
Except I tend to think about it less in terms of a worldwide movement.
I see that it starts right here in the United States.
And right now our elites don't see it in terms of nationalism.
Again, I think Royce is getting at as well.
We believe in our country.
They have another sense of how the world works.
And that's largely in terms of in terms of teams who can advance their interests here at home, whether that's Beijing, whether that's Moscow, whether that's Tehran, whether it's Hezbollah, whether it's Hamas.
So that's what I think is going on.
The larger movement here is, in fact, the Biden administration is walking hand in hand with American adversaries.
Number one, of course, is the Chinese Communist Party.
steve bannon
Royce?
royce white
Yeah, I agree.
I just, you know, I do see that the party of Davos and the globalists have a very consolidated and concentrated effort to undermine the strength of this nation and, you know, China and Russia as well in the ultimate scheme of things, although they see the CCP as a linchpin of their path forward.
steve bannon
How are they doing?
Before I lose you, Lee, I want to go to Jack Maxey has been dumping the laptop from hell.
Daily Mail's got an exclusive.
You've done probably more than anybody to talk about and connect, you and Solomon, of connecting the corruption of our regimes and just the pure, crass, money-making nature of whether it's the Clinton Foundation or the Biden crime family.
How important it is now, you've got Daryl Issa out there saying, hey, save your documents, preserve your documents.
When we take over in November, full investigations.
You're hearing about maybe a grand jury on Hunter Biden.
At the same time, Trump's going out full bore with these RICO charges.
Talk about the corruption and the innate corruption of Hunter Biden in Ukraine.
lee smith
Well, Steve, I heard you saying before that Trump competes for making a phone call and the phone call was as As the president said, perfect.
And I agree.
There wasn't any problems with the phone call.
The reason that Donald Trump was impeached was this was part of a this was to protect not only the Biden family, Hunter and Joe Biden, but it was also it was done to protect larger Democratic Party interests.
And I'm sure that there are all sorts of Republicans.
Who have their hand in this as well.
And it wasn't only criminal, right?
It wasn't only involved in corruption.
It wasn't only working with a corrupt or Ukrainian energy company that was under investigation.
International investigation and a Ukrainian investigation.
It's also a major national security scandal.
That's why Donald Trump was impeached, right?
Hunter Biden, given all of his problems with substance abuse, with money and with women, Was a natural target for foreign intelligence services, hostile services.
Whatever was going on there, the idea that Donald Trump was trying to get to the bottom of it.
This is what alerted people throughout the US government that Donald Trump had to be stopped from looking at that.
I mean, of course, it also dovetailed with the fact that, you know, that Trump was a problem to them generally.
But the Ukraine issue is a particular issue.
What was going on there?
And that's what alarmed them all.
And that's what you see.
All of these Ukrainian-American activists, whether it's Alexander Vindman and Alexander Chalupa, or whether it was Biden's Ukraine point man, CIA official, Ciaramella, Eric Ciaramella, that's what got everyone... Who's the whistleblower.
steve bannon
He's the whistleblower.
You see these guys, by the way, all the cast of characters on the first impeachment are on MSNBC and CNN all night long.
All day long.
lee smith
It's astonishing.
steve bannon
It's stunning.
It's incredible.
Fiona Hill, the Ambassador Taylor, you just got them on nonstop.
It's like that was the out of town show and now they got the main event.
That's like they went to Connecticut to work it out and now they're coming to Broadway.
That wasn't the main event.
This is the main event.
Lee Smith.
lee smith
This is one of the main reasons why this is a terrible moment for the American public, right?
It's actually very important what's happening in Eastern Europe.
This is a big land war of great significance.
And who is explaining this?
The same clowns who were responsible, the same vicious and ugly clowns who were responsible for pushing impeachment against Donald Trump, who is leading our government, the people who have left a trail of corruption in Ukraine.
This is a very dangerous moment for the country and a very dangerous moment for the American public.
But the idea that the American public, when they want to ask questions about what's going on, they want definition, they want explanation, and they're accused of being pro-Putin, monstrous.
The idiots who are explaining this, whether it's Michael McFaul or, as you said, Ambassador Taylor, Alexander Vindman, this is a shame.
This is a great shame for the country, and very dangerous for the country.
steve bannon
This is dangerous.
How do people get to you on social media?
You've got 30 seconds.
How do they get to the book?
How do they get to your website?
lee smith
Yeah, Lee Smith DC on both Twitter and Truth Social.
I hope everyone will check out Truth Social.
That's my most recent book, The Permanent Coup, and there's a long chapter in there on Ukraine that goes into some great detail about what the Bidens were doing in Ukraine and how this evolved, how this turned into the impeachment of Donald Trump.
steve bannon
Lee Smith, thank you.
Look forward to having you back on.
We got drilled down on this in the cast of Charities.
One of the most dangerous times in American history.
Short commercial break.
We're going to get back to a populist nationalist that has stepped away from his professional career and is going to throw down, is throwing down hard on Omar in Minneapolis in a run for Congress.
All next in The War Room.
unidentified
War Room. Pandemic. With Stephen K. Banner.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room. Pandemic. Here's your host, Stephen K. Banner.
steve bannon
Okay, welcome back to the War Room.
A great Minneapolis company, MyPillow.com, they're a great sponsor of ours.
Go to MyPillow.com, promo code WARROOM.
I've got breaking news.
Michael Lindell is going to be back.
He's traveling around, as he always is, fighting the good fight, but he's going to actually meet with Royce White next week.
He's a huge fan of Royce White's, watching him on the show and his hits.
But particularly, I haven't gotten him the clip last night, Royce.
And people, obviously the War Room Posse, very supportive and loves you from the hits you've done, what we're bringing on about policy and about Issues, geopolitical issues, populism, the invasion of the southern border.
But last night I think was different and that's what I think is so great about Tim Pool because it's an environment.
You go out to Tim Pool's compound out there in Harpers Ferry and the show has got a pace to it that you actually explain it.
I had so many positive comments of people just saying, who's this Royce White?
Who is this guy?
And you gave one of the most powerful parts of that was about the Democratic Party and about spirituality and materialism.
I want to get to that in a little while.
But I want to take today, and I thank you for changing your travel to be with us.
I want people to understand who Royce White the man is.
Because you've been such an idol to people in basketball as a sports figure, although you've gone after the big corporations, taken on the corporatocracy, but you're essentially walking away from part of your career to put on the line to run for Congress now, in a place I know that's very close to your heart, Minneapolis and Minnesota.
So tell us about the family, your roots in Minneapolis, and then I want to go through the journey of how you became a populist nationalist.
royce white
Absolutely.
Well, first of all, it's always good to be back with the posse, and it feels great to be here in the cockpit of the mothership, the last ship to save this great nation, so I thank you.
You know, I come from a working-class blue-collar family.
Huge generational roots in the Twin Cities.
Five generations.
My grandmother on my grandfather's side was a first-generation immigrant from Mexico.
My grandmother on my mother's side was a first-generation immigrant from Norway.
So a bit of diversity there as well.
steve bannon
It's a pretty American story.
royce white
Unfortunately, and my great-grandmother was a Catholic, a devout Catholic, as many Hispanic women are.
She actually helped build Our Lady of Guadalupe, which is the centerpiece spiritual sanctuary for the West Side, which is one of the original Mexican communities in our city.
But unfortunately, I grew up in a household with a single mother.
I knew my father, I had a relationship with him, but he didn't live with us.
So I was raised by the community.
My mom paid our rent with her tips.
She always kept drugs and alcohol out of the house.
She was able to do that.
And that's not easy, you know, for a single mother.
And there are a lot of families in our communities that are riddled by things such as drugs and alcohol, especially when they're single mothers taking care of their children.
So it can be difficult.
But I was raised by the community in my father's stead, and because of that, I was given a lot of great morals and ethics and values to stand on, and I was given the encouragement to always stand up for what I believe in.
But I came out of it a cultural Democrat, and I didn't even know it.
steve bannon
Because that's, look, I come from a Democratic family, we shifted, but when I was raised I said you couldn't conceive of voting for a Republican as a little kid.
It's just not, it wasn't even discussed.
royce white
There was just no representation of the Republican platform in my community, in my upbringing.
And you know, I grew up a very good athlete at a very young age.
At 15, I was already a five-star recruit.
I was playing on the Nike circuit, the Nike prep circuit.
I was getting offers from every high major Division I school in the country.
steve bannon
You saw the reality of the corporatocracy right there in that whole Nike thing with high school kids and the future stars.
royce white
I saw it.
At that time, when you're 16, 17, everybody's giving you attaboys and telling you how great you are.
It doesn't come to you that you should confront it at that age.
You're just happy to be admired and included from a global institution.
That's one of the overlords of the sport that you love.
steve bannon
Let me talk about the discipline that got you there.
Coming from a single mom, she's stressed all day long, working, working for tips, support the family, the community.
How did you get the discipline at that time to become essentially a world-class athlete in what people would argue is probably our toughest sport?
royce white
I grew up in an athletic family.
I mean, let's say that.
I mean, a very close friend of the family and who is almost an uncle to me is Dave Winfield.
He's like a distant brother to my grandfather.
My grandfather, my great-grandfather, and his brother were all great athletes.
So I grew up in an athletic family and sports was always a linchpin of the identity in our family.
My individual discipline, I would say, came from the absence of my father.
What do you mean by that?
I would say in the absence of my father, I was always looking to represent myself and achieve my goals in a way that would make him proud.
And so, you know, when your mom's a single mother and she works till six o'clock at night, what you do in a community like mine is you go to the local recreation center and you form a relationship with the director of that recreation center.
And you get him to let you play basketball, you know, hours sometimes after it closes or You're one of these gym rats.
I was a gym rat.
I played one-on-one with myself and I played out the scenarios of the game between myself and a team and I would pretend I was the players I watched on television.
I would go home at night and I started doing, you know, close to a thousand push-ups a night in the seventh grade and I did it religiously until this day.
steve bannon
Imposed by yourself?
royce white
Completely self-imposed.
steve bannon
That gym rat, that's what we look for when we hire people at gym, because that discipline goes through all life.
When you go after something, even today, do you see that you maniacally focus on this?
royce white
And you could argue that from it, you know, I got a little bit OCD, right?
I am a bit obsessive about the things that I want to achieve.
steve bannon
Tell us about that, because you've been very open about mental health issues.
royce white
Yeah, I mean, you know, anxiety and panic was a piece of it, and that came later on, around 16, 17.
I guess that from an existential standpoint, what you're saying is that I saw this hyper-radical materialism that my spirit wasn't okay with, but my body and mind were able to still function at a high level.
I was still able to pursue that goal of being an elite athlete, but there was something in my spirit that was telling me that the radical hypermaterialism wasn't right.
And that's where the anxiety actually came from.
But the OCD is a bit different.
The OCD was just, in order to survive, in my mind at a young age, in order to survive, I had to become obsessive.
What are the pressures like that for a young guy in the community?
head down, understanding where the dangers were in my immediate life and community.
steve bannon
What are the pressures like that for a young guy in the community?
unidentified
Almost overwhelming?
royce white
It depends.
I think it's completely individual.
You know, it depends on where you live, depends on which community you're in.
I think there's a gen... Look, when you don't have a father in the household, and your mom works till 6 p.m., there's a lot of opportunity for you to get in trouble.
And I managed to not do that, and basketball helped me not do that.
steve bannon
When you talk about the hyper-materialism, this is a thing you did on Tim Pool last night, I thought it was amazing.
That's where I get to the Nike part of it.
The Nike part at a very early age is picking the premier athletes and they're rising, but it is a hyper-materialistic.
Benefits are going to come to you, materialistic benefits are going to come to you.
Is that, even at that time, is that where you had this kind of spiritual, is that the path I want to go?
What was this existential problem you had?
royce white
I started to question it.
I was starting to have panic attacks and anxiety, and I didn't understand why, and I wouldn't... A panic attack related to your... No, it wasn't.
They were completely spontaneous, and I had no clue what the cause was.
My first one came from smoking marijuana.
It was the first and only time I ever smoked marijuana, but I had a massive panic attack.
But then they would continue on residually for about three months after the fact.
And I didn't really understand why at the time.
It wasn't until four years later, five years later at 21, and I had this big, you know, fallout fight with the NBA and the corporatocracy that I understood the hypermaterialism was actually the root of the anxiety I was experiencing at 16 and 17.
steve bannon
Let's go through.
Talk to us about high school, the college, and then getting to the NBA, because there was a moment in time you were going to be the second coming.
royce white
Yeah, well, in high school, I was a five-star recruit.
I was an All-American.
I went to the University of Minnesota.
I ended up transferring.
I didn't play at the University of Minnesota.
I ended up transferring to Iowa State.
At that time, they still penalized you for transferring.
You had to sit a year.
So I sat my first year at Iowa State.
Didn't play until my junior year.
And when I finally made it to the court for Iowa State, a team that had been in the lower rung of the Big 12 Conference, I ended up being the only player in the country to lead my team in all five major stats, which is A statistical anomaly in any season, especially in a power six conference like the Big 12.
So it was written on the wall that I was going to be a draft prospect.
The question was, because I had spoken openly and publicly about anxiety and mental health, how did the NBA as an institution view mental health as a topic, as a character flaw, or as an integral part of a comprehensive health model?
steve bannon
And how did they view it?
royce white
They viewed it as the neoliberal, globalist, Marxist, radical, materialist establishment views these things.
Arbitrary.
Selectively.
To their discretion.
When they want to either promote you, to put you in a position to be an icon that they can puppet, or they want to silence you.
steve bannon
Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break.
We're going to come back.
We've got Royce White, the man, the journey.
He's, I think, one of the biggest fire-breathing populist nationalists.
And I don't mean biggest in size.
I mean, you are a hardcore populist, a hardcore nationalist, and somebody that I think Omar's going to have her hands full out there.
This is going to be a very tough, tough, tough, and it's a D-plus 30 district or something like that.
It's not, it's not, it's not exactly a low-hanging fruit.
Short commercial break.
Royce White, the man in the populist all next in the war room.
unidentified
Everything's just beginning, but the games you want to play.
Bring it on and I will fight to the end, just watch and see.
It's all started, everything's begun, and you are over.
Cause we're taking down the CCP.
Spread the word all through Hong Kong.
We will fight till they're all gone.
Okay, now more than ever, we got this partnership with Lee Greenwood.
steve bannon
He put out a Bible that was a King James Version of the Bible.
He also put the founding documents in it, and his publisher rejected him.
Believe it or not, the great Lee Greenwood.
It's God Bless the USA Bible.
Go to GodBlessTheUSABible.com.
Put in promo code War Room.
You get free shipping handling.
Check it out.
Go check it out.
And see if it's something you could use your family.
I gotta tell you, I think today more than ever, you need to be into that King James Bible on a daily basis, at least in part of that time on your knees.
Okay, I want to go back to where I started.
I just want to spend a short thing on the NBA and your sister, because I gotta get... People don't understand this.
Brother White is farther to the right.
All you mainstream media, this guy is harder than I am.
Harder right than I am.
He's hardcore, and it's his journey, and the first time I saw him, I'm watching this, the George Floyd thing, and I see a guy, this guy had like 18,000 people, and this guy's like, he's like a king.
He's so big, so physical, such a physical presence, and he's leading them to the Federal Reserve.
And I go, who is this guy?
unidentified
I said, talk about a God, there's no way in the country you could do that.
steve bannon
It was unbelievable.
But you had this issue with the NBA.
royce white
Yeah.
unidentified
Right?
steve bannon
And you've taken on the corporatocracy from day one.
People don't understand this.
You're calling them out in China.
You're calling them out throughout the world.
You're going after LeBron James.
I mean, you throw down.
How did it start with the NBA?
royce white
Long story short is when I declared for the draft, my anxiety had become a huge storyline in the draft because it was an issue that many public figures hadn't talked about.
I had talked about it and so the NBA was posed with the question and the media was posed with the question, how does the pro sports world or the corporate community view mental health as a topic?
Upon my arrival in the NBA, I discovered that our collective bargaining agreement had no mention of mental health in it.
So I demanded, requested at first, which then turned into a demand, that a mental health policy be created.
That mental health was the greatest social issue we faced and would face going forward.
And that mental health was a way to say the human condition, right, where mind, body, and spirit converge.
The NBA was having, you know, they didn't want any parts of it.
They told me I was right.
They told me I was too smart for my own good.
They said, you're big, we're small.
Without us, without us validating you or giving you a platform, nobody will listen to you.
Nobody will know who you are and you won't be able to affect change for anybody who suffers from a mental health struggle.
So basically, Bend the knee or be lost in the annals of history.
And I, you know, and I said, well, good luck to you.
I told David Stern, I'm going to outlive you.
And he's not here now, and I am, because I had faith in God.
And I said, let's play the long game in this life and in the eternal.
And I fought that for about 10 years.
And that led up to 2017-18.
I played in Canada for two years professionally when they tried to go after Jordan Peterson.
I sat back and I watched that.
In 2019, I joined the Big Three, and I started to talk about political issues like Snowden, Julian Assange, Epstein, the Uyghurs, the whole gamut.
When 2020 hit and the George Floyd situation happened, I said, I'm taking a ministry of truth into the belly of the beast.
steve bannon
And so Hal, when you first got involved in the George Floyd situation, MSNBC, you were like the poster child.
They couldn't get enough of this.
And then all of a sudden, you're leading people to the Federal Reserve, and I notice I'm not seeing a lot of Royce White anymore, right?
The corporate powers that be at MSNBC says, I don't think we want this guy pointing the finger to where the finger should be pointed.
royce white
Well, look, chaos and violence broke out in the days after the George Floyd situation.
And this is a community, again, I didn't have a father in my household.
The community raised me.
I understand the bamboozlement that has been done on many in our community.
Even the white liberals, the white liberal feminists who I vehemently oppose ideologically, they've been manipulated.
So, when I saw the violence and chaos break out, I knew that there was this three-card monte being played where the liberal establishment had this air game of brainwashing people all the way down to the grassroots level through the universities, but that they can't stop physical dominion.
So I just said, hey, we're going to lead a protest.
We picked a time, we picked a date, we spread it amongst our network, you know, mouth-to-mouth, old-school style.
And our first protest was outside a U.S.
Bank Stadium, another corporatocracy establishment.
And it started with 400 people it ended up with 7500 this was the first day and we ended up on 35 W bridge of which we stopped at the Fed and the second one when we showed up at US Bank Stadium four days later, there was already 12 to 13,000 people sitting.
Waiting for us to arrive and start this march and that mind you all of these were peaceful protests of over 10 protests 100,000 people we didn't have one fight one fire one arrest We changed the narrative of anarchy back to one where citizens exercise civil disobedience to negotiate the social contract You're taking this now to a political contest with all the nuts and bolts of political contests.
steve bannon
Why would you give up everything now?
Why now?
Why Minneapolis?
And why Omar?
royce white
One, because I believe in this country.
I'm not ready to give up my citizenship, my American citizenship, for global citizenship.
Not only do I think it's a spit in the face to black people, to working class people like my mother, but it's a heresy against God.
And I'm not shy or skeptical or confused that this attack on American citizenship is really an attack on Christianity and Judeo-Christian or Greco-Judeo-Christian And I'm a Christian, first and foremost.
I have an unapologetic faith in God.
And, you know, a lot of these people, you know, this globalist, intergenerational cabal, they hate themselves.
Behind all the power and access and material things, they hate themselves.
And so by default they hate this country because the cornerstone of America is to elevate Elevate the self, elevate the individual to a place of transformative spiritual existence.
And they hate everything about that, which is why they want to go to a post-transhumanist world.
And it offends me.
As a black man who comes from a working class family and a single mother who paid our rent with her tips, it offends me that they want to automate the jobs away from the working class.
And it offends me even further that they're using black people as the calling card to do it.
It actually offends me.
steve bannon
Walk through last night, which you told Tim Pool about, that it's an easier sell.
The materialist sell is an easier sell to the American people, to youth, and to what the Democratic Party stands for.
royce white
Yeah, what I was trying to say is that we have conceded many places from a political strategy standpoint with the Republican Party, and I say we now because I'm running as Republican and I believe in teams to some extent, but I think we've conceded places based on the good Christian belief that the order of charity It's proper in Christian values, myself, my family, my community.
But the Democrats have pushed Republican communities out and away from the metropolitan ideology.
And so now, there is no way back to winning.
The only way to fight the radical material is through faith.
There is no political strategy that could because people when they say you're gonna own nothing and be happy what they're saying is we're gonna make the high so good You're not gonna care that we're stealing from you and some of that is true.
So the economics only Pitch won't work because the high gets so good they don't care that they're getting stolen from and I know this because I come from that generation that the Millennials Some of them, many of them, don't care that they're being stolen from.
So we have to have a pitch that says, first of all, if your notion of heaven collapses, all that's here is the here and now.
And that'll give you unconstrained anxiety and despair, because the here and now is fleeting.
The eternal is where you can find meaning and gravity to your everyday works being more than how you can get your quick fix.
steve bannon
How do you translate that into the politics?
Because the politics today is not a search for truth, right?
It is the most partisan combat that you can have, right?
It is a politics of personal destruction.
And I've told you before, as we've talked, they will come.
You're their worst nightmare.
The worst nightmare.
So they are going to specifically come to destroy you personally.
Trump's the worst nightmare.
You're a close second.
Okay?
Very close second.
They've got to destroy you.
They have to because you come from a place that you have the bona fides to speak truth to the power.
So why harness that or try to go into, and one of the most competitive, it's a D plus, I don't know, 26 districts.
She's charismatic.
She's smart.
She's got a huge base there.
Why now?
Why Minneapolis?
Why her?
royce white
If we can win there, we can win anywhere.
And there's a way to win there that transcends the political, I believe.
I believe that these...
Falsely constructed narratives, culturally, have to be fought and broken.
And I'm up for that challenge, first and foremost.
That's why I said my fellow Republican Christians, conservatives, have lost the notion of ministry.
And ministry is not just for the faithful and spiritual, it can also be the political.
We have to go into the belly of the beast and shatter these cultural narratives.
And I'm willing to do it in mine, but I'm charging the Republican Party to find the courage and the faith to do it across this nation.
Because we're in the 12th hour.
There will be no country left, and that's how I see it.
So right now is the fight, and Ilhan Omar and the squad, I mean, they're the face of everything that's wrong with this country.
steve bannon
What do you mean by that?
royce white
I mean that one of the biggest scams, or three-card Monty's, that's being run right now is that socialism is by default anti-corporate.
It's not.
Socialism at the global level, when you want to merge the state and corporation at the global scale, becomes the ultimate form of corporatism where everyone becomes a serf.
And they know that.
That's why you got Ilhan Omar saying we need to free the Uyghurs but still shield that we need to go softer on China.
That's why Kamala Harris' husband is an attorney for Walmart.
I mean, these people aren't socialists.
They're not progressives.
They're not interested in the working class.
They're interested in presenting themselves as being for the working class so that they can gain power and authority.
And it's clear to me.
steve bannon
When you took on, we got a couple minutes in this segment, when you took on the concept of the Uyghurs and said if they're not free, none of us are free, the Chinese are not free, you did it at a time that both with the shoe companies and the media companies covering your sport at the time, it couldn't have been a bigger risk to you personally.
Why did you do that?
The Uyghurs are half a world away.
royce white
Speaking the truth.
steve bannon
They're half a world away.
What do they have to do with Royce White?
royce white
The Uyghurs are the slaves of early America.
I don't see it any differently.
I see a government that has lost touch with morals and ethics and faith in God go after an ethnic minority in a predatory sense.
And the freedom of the Uyghurs Is maybe the biggest cultural issue of our time.
We can't talk about freedom or justice, which are cornerstones of American values, while we do business and become the stool pigeon for the CCP.
It just won't work and it undermines our position.
steve bannon
Okay, we're going to take a short break.
We're going to come back and talk about the actual campaign stops, what he's going to be doing to present this to Minneapolis.
The Guardians already had a huge story about Royce White.
Sports Illustrated's had a story.
This is not just a congressional race.
This race is going to take on deeper, deeper meaning on a global scale.
We'll talk about that next when we return in The War Room.
unidentified
Bring it on and I will fight to the end Just watch and see It's all started Everything's begun And you are over Cause we're taking down the CCP Spread the word all through Hong Kong We will fight till they're all gone We rejoice when there's no more Let's take down

Okay, I'm here with Minneapolis's finest son, Royce White.
Make sure you go support the Minneapolis company.
That's MyPillow.com, MyPillow.com, promo code WORM.
Go check out our square today.
You'll be blown away by the sales.
Action, action, action.
You said something on Tim Pool last night about the Democratic platform.
Hit that again for me.
royce white
Yeah.
When we talk about, or when you asked me about Nike and sort of this professional basketball player, public figure, peacock motif, right, is their platform is anything goes.
That's really the Democrat platform is anything goes.
Anything that you want to do is accepted and not judged.
And this is the double cross and triple cross.
They package it as freedom.
But it's really freedom to be depraved, not freedom to be righteous or transformative or transcended.
And there's a big difference in the two.
And this is how we have to watch, you know, these sort of linguistical wars that are going on as well.
That's not freedom in the Judeo-Christian sense.
So yeah, and a prime example of that for, you know, to hone down on my district or what's going on in Minnesota politically.
They're not trying to educate young black kids, right?
Minnesota has one of the biggest public education budgets in the entire country.
steve bannon
Supposedly one of the finest public education platforms.
unidentified
Well, it is.
royce white
It is for the white students.
The white students, it's rated one or two in the country for white students, but the Minneapolis public schools and the black students have a 50% graduation and proficiency rate in reading.
And they want more money.
So if we're talking about what liberalism looks like, translated into policy, translated into education, which is the cornerstone of building healthy citizens, you could say, this is the evidence of where liberalism will take us.
For the black community specifically, let's just say.
unidentified
How does that message get through?
steve bannon
I come from a white working-class Irish Catholic union family and it was hard.
It took the Vietnam War really to awaken still half the family's Democrat.
But how does that work in the black community that's just totally surrounded with that Donald Trump and the Republicans are a bunch of white nationalist racists?
royce white
Well, this part doesn't fall on the white liberals.
This doesn't fall on the liberal establishment.
This is black men in the black community being more invested and more seduced by the material high than they are in faith in God and righteousness.
So there's been too many sellouts.
And not enough leaders.
All it takes is for a few good men to stand up in any one of these communities and say, this is enough.
Stop the lies.
And it's going to have resonating power.
It already is.
I'm already doing it.
Because when I stand up and confront you with Christ and faith and truth, you can't come back with lies.
And if I'm a true believer, if it's really in my heart, you can't come back with Satan.
Doesn't work.
I'm betting my God over yours every time, every day of the week.
And you know what you see?
Many of them fold before the sheer power of it.
They just go, yeah, you know what?
You're right.
I ran the scam as long as I could.
Probably do need to change.
And that's why you see a lot of black communities start to move now towards Trump and a message that's more true and genuine.
steve bannon
And this is the beating heart of what your campaign is going to be about?
royce white
A ministry of truth into the belly of the beast.
Let's see how it plays out.
My God versus your atheist, transhumanist, globalist, elitist agenda.
steve bannon
Wow.
Walk me through just some nuts and bolts.
How do people get to you?
Because you do have to run a political campaign for the House of Representatives.
How do people get to you?
How do they follow you on social media?
How do they get to your campaign?
How do they find out even more about Royce White from Tim Pool and our show today?
royce white
RoyceWhite.us, that's our campaign website.
You can follow me on Getter.
You can follow me on Substack.
All of the pieces are free.
And again, I appreciate the time, man.
I can't tell you how much your mentorship and friendship means to me, and it means to my working-class mother.
steve bannon
Well, I'm honored to have you here, and I've said from day one, when Jeff Kwatnitz, my old partner, was good enough to introduce us, he was one of the guys with Ice Cube, with Cube, with the Big Three League, I said, man, I've seen this guy, this guy's incredible.
This race, and you and I talked about practical politics and getting involved in it, but once you committed to do this, I said, this is going to be a race that's going to be very defining.
This is going to be a race that talks to deeper issues about this nation and the world.
Because, and I tease people, Royce is actually farther to the right than I am.
You're about as hardcore populist and nationalist that gets out there.
So this is going to be one.
And I told you from the beginning, they are going to come for you.
You are a righteous, deeply religious individual.
But man, they're coming hard.
royce white
I can't wait.
steve bannon
You're the worst.
unidentified
Ever since Trump's gone on the scene, you're the second worst news they've seen.
steve bannon
They're gonna freak out.
royce white
I can't.
Me and him, we're both coming roaring back.
Me for the first.
Well, me roaring back from 2013.
Him roaring back from the cheat in 2020.
steve bannon
It's great to have you here.
You've got a bunch of meetings and stuff back here in D.C.
and then you're back to Minneapolis.
Mike Lindell has already talked to me about once this is done.
It's the beginning of something very special.
Godspeed.
Good luck.
And we'll see how this thing plays out.
I know you're a fighter.
I said authenticity and fight.
You're incredibly... Authenticity you've got and you are a fighter.
So I've seen you in situations that... I said this guy fighting for the Uyghurs, fighting to take down the Chinese Communist Party.
Just extraordinary.
Thank you for coming into the War Room.
royce white

Godspeed, brother.
steve bannon
