...didn't bend to the bullying. | |
| But what this did is it showed Trump followers just how important this role is of Secretary of State. | ||
| In most states, this is the person who certifies the final election results. | ||
| So after this night, you have all of these election deniers starting to run for Secretary of State. | ||
| I'm Wes Allen, and I've spent years fighting liberal attempts to change our elections. | ||
| Chuck Gray, Wyoming's proven conservative champion, cracking down on election cheats. | ||
| They're, you know, for low-level technical roles. | ||
| You know, but suddenly, after all the attention on how Team Trump attempted to kind of bully secretaries of state into helping them overthrow the 2020 race, these racists are suddenly drawing a lot of notice and tons of campaign cash. | ||
| One such candidate is this guy, Jim Marchant of Nevada, which is a swing state. | ||
| In 2020, Marchant also lost an election for Nevada's state legislature. | ||
| I was a victim of voter fraud. | ||
| I ran for Congress here in Nevada, and I won election day. | ||
| I won early voting. | ||
| Only after two weeks of fraudulent mail-in ballots did I lose. | ||
|

|
Feeling like the whole system was rigged against him and his party, six months later... Jim Marchant is running to be Nevada Secretary of State. | |
| Jim will fight against voter fraud with voter ID, paper ballots, and full election audits. | ||
| Jim is a winner. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, and he actually won the Republican primary! | |
| Marchant has said that he would not have certified the 2020 election results. | ||
| Marchant ran on this platform obsessing over election integrity. | ||
| The people of Nevada have not elected anybody since 2006. | ||
| They've been installed by The deep state cabal. | ||
| Your vote hasn't counted for decades. | ||
| You haven't elected anybody. | ||
| The people that are in office have been selected. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So how much power does this guy actually have to affect election results? | |
| Plenty. | ||
| As the state's top election official, Nevada's Secretary of State kind of helps set how elections are conducted and is responsible for investigating voting fraud claims. | ||
| Marchant is just one of dozens of election deniers all around the country running for top state offices that oversee elections. | ||
| And while some will lose their primary race and never get elected, many are winning in the primaries. | ||
| Like in Arizona, a very important swing state where Biden barely won. | ||
| And now, where you have election deniers who have won the GOP primary for all three of the state's top offices that oversee elections. | ||
| This adds to an already growing trend of Republicans winning Secretary of State races around the country. | ||
| As your Secretary of State, I will continually work to protect the sanctity of our elections. | ||
| Peter K. Navarro, joining Stephen K. Bannon in this hour. | ||
| We spent the first hour going over with Richard Barras a tour of this country. | ||
| The Taking Back Trump's America book is a mission. | ||
| The goal now is to throw Nancy Pelosi out on her ass as speaker and the way we can do that is by going state by state and the posse helps people who are running and have a chance and they need your help and Cameron's putting up a list to be like Navarro's picks on the website. | ||
| We'll have that later today. | ||
| But now what we're going to do is we're shifting focus to Nevada. | ||
| There's a lot of news out now where Nevada essentially is ground zero in this massive shift of Latino voters to the Republican Party. | ||
| It's a shift which has caught the Democrats by surprise. | ||
| It should not have given the values of Latinos with respect to the family, traditional values, and so it's kind of a whole new ballgame. | ||
| So, we got Steve. | ||
| Let's bring Steve in here first. | ||
| Say hello. | ||
| He's reading the newspaper, I think. | ||
| Yeah, I'm catching up. | ||
| Get your buddy in here, will ya? | ||
| You take an hour off. | ||
| I could see your tan went up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You were at the sun tanning booth, getting a haircut. | |
| You do look a little better, thank you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Look at this guy, man. | ||
| He's just kicking bag. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He takes an hour. | |
| Hold it, hold it. | ||
| The audience on Getter was getting to me and said, can we please stop selling the book? | ||
| Can you come back for an hour and help out the bar? | ||
| No. | ||
| Peter, Peter. | ||
| The book's amazing. | ||
| Hey, it's a mission. | ||
| It's not a book, Steve. | ||
| Remember that. | ||
| It's a mission. | ||
| I'll give you one for free, buddy. | ||
| When you get there. | ||
| Here's why I'm reading the New York Times. | ||
| It's on the front page of the New York Times. | ||
| And huge inside, and you know I love the New York Times. | ||
| I've read it since I was a paperboy at 10. | ||
| The whole story is Nevada reflects Democrats' hurdles across the USA. | ||
| Nevada reflects the hurdles the Democrats have. | ||
| This is 100% about Jim Marchand and the great team in Nevada that is running out there and really putting, and they talk about the bet, Peter, that the Democrats went on abortion and they went for college-educated women. | ||
| And the Trump movement, and taking back Trump's America, the movement went for working-class Hispanics to join MAGA and their significant others and their spouses, particularly non-college-educated Hispanic men, and it's been overwhelming. | ||
| And Nevada's in play, the huge headwinds. | ||
| This is a damning article with, what, four weeks to go, five weeks to go, 35 days is it to go? | ||
| This is a damning article. | ||
| And Peter, I think it shows more than anything You do in the book to define what MAGA is, to define the policies, and particularly to define the economic policies. | ||
| You know, populism and economic nationalism is built around a set of policies that allow the middle class and the working class to share in the bounty, to share in the wealth, to share in the value creation of this nation. | ||
| And what we've had for, I don't know, 40 or 50 years, or for many, many decades, is really a concentration Of that wealth by Wall Street, by the globalist corporations, by the Uniparty, the paymasters of the Uniparty are Wall Street and the globalist corporations. | ||
| And you can see in the concentration of wealth, 0.5 percent, Peter, of our citizens, American citizens, own more assets and more wealth than 90 percent. | ||
| And in Nevada, you're seeing this play out, and that's why you need the Jim Marchants are going to win, the Adam Laxalts are going to win. | ||
| The governor candidate out there is going to win. | ||
| And Marchant, and what they're freaking out about, Peter, is once Marchant and Fincham and Caramo and these great secretaries of state are installed, you're only going to have free and fair elections and transparent. | ||
| And Peter, as you know from the Navarro report, if you have the canvassing boards cleaned out and the voting records up to date and everything set by law, remember that it's impossible for Democrats to win. | ||
| Peter Navarro. | ||
| You know what was interesting to me, Steve, about that New York Times article? | ||
| Ran for Congress way back when, in the 90s, and got to know kind of the lay of the land. | ||
| And the big political force, interestingly enough, in Nevada is the Culinary Union, right? | ||
| Because they're the union that represents all the big hotel workers on the Strip. | ||
| I mean, it's a huge, powerful organization with a lot of clout. | ||
| And there's like a vignette there. | ||
| In that, in these stories about this shift, about how these culinary workers are going, walking precinct by precinct, and the Democrats that they're knocking doors on are refusing to open the door, are screaming at these people, screaming at these people that Biden sucks, that this, that, the other thing, think about the economy, we don't care about Roe v. Wade, and it's like, whoa! | ||
| And so what that tells me is that this is deeply, deeply embedded. | ||
| By the way, by the way, by the way, don't bury the leak, because you went to the most important part of a 5,000 word, really, report in the New York Times. | ||
| It takes up many pages. | ||
| When they go around and they're knocking, they're walking and they're knocking doors, which you should. | ||
| This is grassroots, so the union guys are doing it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes! | |
| The first thing the people scream is that the Democrats have destroyed the economy. | ||
| I can't live. | ||
| I can't buy food. | ||
| I mean, this is, and these are working class people that should be theoretically Democrats. | ||
| And they're sitting there screaming, the Democrats, get out of my door. | ||
| You've destroyed the economy. | ||
| I can't afford to live. | ||
| The inflation is out of control. | ||
| I mean, this is the best spot. | ||
| It's impossible for the fair count here for the Democrats to hold these seats, Peter. | ||
| I know you've seen this coming and it's in the book. | ||
| By the way, I would love to go to those doors, knock on them and hand them a copy of your book so they can see what we stand for. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| Yeah, taking back Trump's America is a mission. | ||
| I think we've got a chance here to take back the House in a resounding way now based on everything we're talking about here, Steve. | ||
| Nevada, man, they were one of the six battleground states where Trump, quote, lost. | ||
| And if that state finally shifts Republican, it's going to auger very, very poorly for the Democrats. | ||
| And yes, they have destroyed the economy. | ||
| You want to bring in Jim now? | ||
| Hold on, hold on, hang on, hang on, hang on. | ||
| Let's bring Jim in a second, but I want to just make sure we're also talking about when I said, and I said today going to court, our mission, don't worry about the noise. | ||
| Only focus on the signal, which is 8 November. | ||
| One of the key things, and Peter, you remember this in your analysis, is that state legislatures are going to be all important, particularly with the Supreme Court now. | ||
| Deconstructing the administrative state. | ||
| A lot of this is going to be put back. | ||
| There's this massive case, I think in North Carolina, about redistricting the state legislatures. | ||
| And Peter, as you remember, and we take the six problem states in 2020, the only state legislature we didn't control was in Nevada. | ||
| And so Nevada's state legislature is in play. | ||
| We're going to flip a couple like in Minnesota, etc. | ||
| So these state legislatures, not just, remember, our whole purpose is to win from school boards, Election boards, canvassing boards, medical boards. | ||
| Anytime you have a board or a commission, we want to be the dominant party on that. | ||
| And this is what democracy is. | ||
| This is what grassroots—the Democrats are freaking out because they don't have the enthusiasm. | ||
| And don't forget the state legislatures. | ||
| The reason that we never got the traction we should have gotten in Nevada is we didn't have Jim Marchant as Secretary of State, and they had a Democratic-controlled legislature. | ||
| So, Peter, as you know, this is all up and down. | ||
| We look to destroy the Democratic Party as a national political institution on 8 November, sir. | ||
| And to that point, Steve, it was the state legislatures who not only passed all those rules that basically allowed the Democrats to steal, but if you look now at Alaska and Maine, we went over this with Richard Barris, they've got that ranked choice voting thing, which is nothing more than the Democrats control the world thing. | ||
| It's just like friggin' stupid. | ||
| You get like a You get a Republican candidate winning? | ||
| It's not stupid. | ||
| It's not stupid. | ||
| It's the way you keep the establishment in charge. | ||
| Those are anti-MAGA. | ||
| Moderates. | ||
| The rank choice is anti-MAGA. | ||
| Anti-MAGA. | ||
| We've got to reverse that. | ||
| That's where we've got to take state legislatures. | ||
| Sarah Palin should be in the House right now. | ||
| She should be in the house right now. | ||
| What I did with Barris, which was really interesting, Steve, is I culled down a list of about 35 races. | ||
| Into like 10 that the posse can go out and help and really make a material difference. | ||
| And a lot of those races, Steve, are ones that Kevin McCarthy and the House have not gotten behind that we can win. | ||
| And the other one that like, wow, it's like Mitch McConnell and Blake Masters in Arizona. | ||
| We can win that race, Steve. | ||
| So, that's the other thing we're facing here. | ||
| Trump's America. | ||
| When we take back Trump's America, we not only take it back from the Democrats, we take it back from the rhinos. | ||
| And that's what we've got to do. | ||
| Signal that noise right now, through November. | ||
| That's what we've got to focus on, sir. | ||
| We have to run through the tape. | ||
| I also want to say we're going to be talking about individual districts starting today because we can pick up 40 or 50 seats, right? | ||
| We can have the biggest majority. | ||
| Look, there's 74 that they're putting money into. | ||
| I believe we can still get to 100 if we deliver the shattering blow that we can deliver. | ||
| Really have over 280, 300 members of the House and really destroy the Democratic Party. | ||
| Crush it down. | ||
| Let me say something real quick on that. | ||
| Let me say something real quick on that because the thing that came out with Barris, which was fascinating, that bump, that summer bump that Biden had and everything was closing and morning Joe was kind of like, You know, just over the moon kind of thing. | ||
| That's gone! | ||
| That is just obliterated because people are looking at the economy, the financial markets, and what they can buy in the supermarket. | ||
| And this thing is, right now at least, it's moving Republican on the economy. | ||
| It's stupid. | ||
| It's the Hispanic woman in the New York Times story yelling at the guy knocking on the door saying, Democrats destroyed the economy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Get out of here! | |
| Yeah, look, the last thing quickly. | ||
| It's like the unions, when I was with Trump, they always worked against their own membership. | ||
| The leaders worked against their own membership. | ||
| It broke my heart. | ||
| The Teamsters, the AFL-CIO. | ||
| Some of the craft unions are with Trump. | ||
| Carpenters, usually. | ||
| All right, brother. | ||
| We'll be right back. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Um... | |
| It's all 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 is no more Let's take down the CCP War Room 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 | ||
| you you Peter K. Navarro in today on The War Room. | ||
| We've got Stephen K. Bannon in another city reading the New York Times, and we will get to him shortly. | ||
| But first, I am bringing in Jim Marchand since I'm the captain of this ship. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hang on. | |
| Oh, you're killing me! | ||
| You're the host. | ||
| No, you're the host. | ||
| I'm the wingman. | ||
| You're killing me. | ||
| You're running this. | ||
| You bring on Marchand. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You do the interview. | |
| I'll jump in. | ||
| I'm just the wingman today. | ||
| It's like a Bollier play, dude. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Every time I try to bring Marchand in, you bring somebody in. | |
| Okay, look, Moshe is like ground zero right now in the seismic shift that's going on here in America. | ||
| So let's bring him in and hear what's happening in the great state of Nevada and whether he's got the Culinary Union switching sides at this point or whether they're still getting doors slammed in their face by Democrats telling the Culinary Union that the Democrats are destroying the economy. | ||
| So, without further ado, is Jim there? | ||
| Yes, I'm here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Alright, Brian. | |
| I am here. | ||
| So, boots on the ground. | ||
| How's your race looking? | ||
| How's Laxalt race looking? | ||
| How's Nevada looking? | ||
| And are we going red finally in Nevada? | ||
| I think we are. | ||
| Indications, it appears that way. | ||
| The polls are looking good for us. | ||
| Some of us better than others. | ||
| Some of them are tight for some of the Republican candidates out here. | ||
| Fortunately, my poll numbers look good. | ||
| I'm up by eight and typically very liberal polls, which I think bodes well for for us. | ||
| So we're looking forward to it. | ||
| I think the reason is there's a lot of reasons, but one of them is Hispanics are coming our way. | ||
| I have been going to a lot of Hispanic events out here and my colleagues when I was in the assembly out here that are Hispanic. | ||
| They looked at me, what are you doing here? | ||
| Republicans never come to these things. | ||
| I said, they are now. | ||
| I said, I'm here. | ||
| And some of the looks on their faces like, you know, what is this guy doing here? | ||
| But I know I was pretty friendly with the Hispanic assembly people that I served with. | ||
| And so we got along. | ||
| It was we kind of were joking around. | ||
| But the thing that I found Was we were, you know, I was very well received by the Hispanic community that was there and at these Hispanic events. | ||
| And and I have hired a person out here that was written up in the Wall Street Journal as one of the leading Hispanic activists in the country. | ||
| And she's really helped me out here, you know, get to some of these events and actually learn about them. | ||
| I'm on the radio. | ||
| I'm on a Hispanic radio show at 930 this morning out here, our time. | ||
| So we're doing everything that we need to do to win this race. | ||
| And I think the New York Times article is a perfect example of what's going on. | ||
| And the Democrats are losing their minds out here. | ||
| So they realize there's a shift. | ||
| And it's because we now are paying attention to the Hispanic vote and the minority vote. | ||
| And they don't like it one bit. | ||
| Jim, it's true that a lot of Hispanics have a D by the party registration, but certainly, as you know, firsthand. | ||
| It's an R by the values, by the traditional family values. | ||
| So I think that's certainly working to your advantage and this country's advantage right now. | ||
| The question I have is, is there any evidence now of desperate dark money coming in through George Soros or anything like that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Write that down for me, sir. | ||
| Are you kidding me? | ||
| I mean, he just gave almost a million dollars to my Secretary of State opponent. | ||
| And that's just that doesn't even include the PAC money that they have coming in, pouring into Nevada to try to support some of the Democrat candidates. | ||
| Because, you know, we have, like you mentioned earlier, you know, we might have an opportunity to flip one of the legislative chambers out here, Senate, hopefully. | ||
| The assembly out here, the state house is going to be a little more difficult, but we've got a chance, and we can certainly pick up seats there. | ||
| So, it's not looking good for them, and they're bringing in tons and tons and tons of money. | ||
| And they're on TV. | ||
| If you saw the TV ads out here, it's one after another, just hit piece on mostly us Republicans. | ||
| And I think the people, what I'm hearing out in the field, we're sick of it. | ||
| We don't believe it. | ||
| And, you know, that's why we've got a decent chance of winning. | ||
| But we still have the same election system in place. | ||
| Jim, don't bury the lead. | ||
| Go back. | ||
| Soros put a million dollars. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| Marchant and these guys, the reason it's so important, and the coalition is so important, with Fincham and Caramo and these great secretaries of state, Soros is a smart guy. | ||
| In fact, he's a brilliant guy. | ||
| He's cunning, and he's evil, but he's brilliant. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| He understands the linchpin of this. | ||
| This is why years ago, Peter, as you remember, he went after attorney generals, local prosecutors, and secretaries of state. | ||
| When nobody was focused on those down ballots, he was putting big money in it. | ||
| For him to come in- Just quickly- With Marchant. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Remember, Marchant's- Michigan- All of it. | |
| Remember- And Pennsylvania. | ||
| It was Bookvar, Kathy Bookvar. | ||
| Those were the ones which Swang the 2020 election. | ||
| Swung the 2020 election. | ||
| So you should fear that money. | ||
| Go ahead, Steve. | ||
| We don't know, but that million dollars coming in this late? | ||
| No, because he knows, Peter, that a Marchant as the head of the coalition in Nevada, Nevada, the Secretary of State's important To have free elections, because the Harry Reid machine may be getting a little rusty, but brother, there are professionals out there at stealing elections. | ||
| That's the professional division. | ||
| These aren't trained amateurs. | ||
| These are pros. | ||
| Why do you think Soros puts a million dollars in here late in the campaign on a Secretary of State race? | ||
| Jim Marchant. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| You're exactly right. | ||
| And they see the gains we're making out here. | ||
| They see the sentiment of the people here in Nevada. | ||
| Are not buying what they're selling anymore and you know out here gas has gone up. | ||
| What 3040% in the last week? | ||
| I think in two days it went up 3030 cents and people are seeing that there are the shelves on the supermarket. | ||
| Some of them are getting better. | ||
| People are getting there. | ||
| They're finally waking up because it's actually affecting them. | ||
| Their lives every week so. | ||
| And but yeah, the money they've got coming in here is insane and it's obscene. | ||
| But you know, we're behind the eight ball. | ||
| We don't have that kind of money. | ||
| It's hard to compete with them on TV and just typical. | ||
| Ways that you normally campaign and but we're getting our message out and that's one of the things that I've done that I think that that I kind of I didn't do that most other politicians do is shy away from the MAGA message and I've been going full force since the primary because that's what people want to hear. | ||
| They want they want somebody that's going to bring Confidence back into the election system so that they have confidence. | ||
| And that's exactly what I'm going to do. | ||
| We're going to finally have a fair and transparent election out here in Nevada. | ||
| And then if we elect all of the other secretaries of state in our coalition, they're going to do the same thing and we're going to turn this country around. | ||
| And that's the way we're going to do it. | ||
| Through the Secretary of State offices, and that's how George Soros knows. | ||
| He knows it. | ||
| Make the audience feel better right now. | ||
| We had the Gateway Pundit guys on yesterday. | ||
| What can people do now to make sure 8 November They need to get out and vote and vote on election day. | ||
| machine in in Las Vegas. How can what what do people have to do now, Jim, to ensure that Marchant, the lower chamber of the house, I think, Laxalt, the governor, the AG, all of them on what do people need to do? | ||
| They need to get out and vote and vote on election day. That's what we're telling everybody. Um, if we vote on election day and not really vote during the early voting, the other side doesn't really know how many votes they need, and we can overwhelm them on election day. | ||
| And that's critical, because if we get out and overwhelm the system, no amount of manipulation they have built into the election system will work. | ||
| We can overcome it. | ||
| All of these people that are saying, oh, so what's the use of me getting out and voting because it's rigged? | ||
| And what's the use? | ||
| You've got to get out and vote. | ||
| If we come out in 80%, 90% turnout, there's nothing they can do to rig the system so that they win. | ||
| If we have a fair and transparent election, I guarantee you Nevada's red. | ||
| Most of the other, some of the other blue and purple states will be red. | ||
| So that's what has to happen. | ||
| They have to get out and vote. | ||
| And don't believe this red wave stuff either. | ||
| A lot of people are saying, oh, yeah, we're going to take this. | ||
| I can just sit home and I don't have to worry about it. | ||
| No, you have to get out and vote. | ||
| You have to make sure that we overwhelm this system so much that no amount of manipulation that they have built into the system will work. | ||
| And that's the way we do it. | ||
| Jim, that's a beautiful point. | ||
| I just want to emphasize this. | ||
| And it's a cynicism born of reality. | ||
| It's like, they don't know what the margins are going to be, so they don't know how much they have to steal it by. | ||
| I mean, you run a really big risk when you try to steal an election that you overdo it. | ||
| A thing of dark tragic beauty with the Democrats where they just stolen up. | ||
| You know, Bannon's sitting on the rooftop in Washington DC at night and the election night in 2020 and he calls me up and says we got this. | ||
| By the morning he says they stole it and it's like in that interim they stopped. | ||
| And then they figured out what to do. | ||
| Jim, how do people send you money and volunteer quickly? | ||
| Yes, jimmarchant.com. | ||
| J-I-M-M-A-R-C-H-A-N-T dot com. | ||
| And then our coalition, S-O-S 4 America dot com. | ||
| S-O-S, the number 4 America dot com. | ||
| That helps our coalition. | ||
| It gets the vital secretaries of state around the country elected that we desperately need to save our country. | ||
| And God bless both of you. | ||
| All right, my brother, you are a patriot, sir. | ||
| War Room has you back. | ||
| We'll be right back in the War Room with Peter Canovar and the Admiral Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
|
unidentified
|
War Room. | |
| 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. | ||
| He's the wingman today in the war room. | ||
| What we're going to do next is talk a little bit about this suit that President Trump has filed against CNN, a defamation suit. | ||
| I want to set this up with a little discussion of a few chapters in Taking Back Trump's America where I talked about how Dominating the daily news cycle was the challenge every president faces on a daily basis at the White House. | ||
| If you can make sure you have positive news, you're in good shape. | ||
| If the other side dominates the news cycle, that's a bad day for you. | ||
| And in the White House, the problem we had | ||
| With the corporate media, not just CNN and MSNBC and New York Times, The Washington Post, but also half of Fox News, was that they would push and pimp stories designed to harm Trump, even if those stories otherwise would not have been at the top of the A block and B block in, say, | ||
| The news of the day, right? | ||
| And we failed at that mission most of the time, and it took a tremendous toll on President Trump. | ||
| He had more fake negative coverage than any president in any time in our history, hands down. | ||
| And it's very hard to maintain a high approval rating or a likability rating when you're constantly being barraged. | ||
| So now, fast forward, CNN has been doing its CNN stuff despite their claims that they've shifted management and are going to be less political. | ||
| That's just a bunch of BS at this point. | ||
| And Donald Trump has filed suit. | ||
| So who better to bring in than the inestimable Mike Davis to talk about the following. | ||
| Is this suit frivolous or is it possible that it could win, number one? | ||
| And number two, Is it simply, possibly, just a way of putting CNN on notice to stop doing what they're doing and back them off from what they're doing? | ||
| So Mike, my brother, what say you on this issue? | ||
| And Steve, of course, chime in as you will. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| I mean, it's certainly not a frivolous lawsuit. | ||
| It has merit to it because the lawsuit cites two specific times that CNN defamed President Trump. | ||
| They said he was a racist. | ||
| They said he was a Russian lackey. | ||
| They said he was an insurrectionist. | ||
| They compared him to Hitler. | ||
| They compared him to Nazis. | ||
| They said he was lying about the election. | ||
| So that's certainly, if you can prove that those are false, which they clearly are, he has a defamation case. | ||
| He has, as a public figure, under a- Let me ask you a question, Mike. | ||
| It's not just Does he have to prove they're false or that they were reasonable beliefs? | ||
| For example, the election remains in dispute. | ||
| There are plenty of people who believe it was stolen, plenty of people who believe it was not. | ||
| If he has a reasonable belief, as he did, for example, on January 6th, that that election was stolen, does he have to just prove he had a reasonable belief or does he have to prove the election was stolen? | ||
| So look, there's a case called New York Times versus Sullivan, where Trump, he has a heightened standard because he's a public official. | ||
| So he has to prove that CNN acted with actual malice against him, that it was knowingly false or a reckless disregard for the truth. | ||
| It's a high hurdle for public officials to sue for defamation, but if Trump can prove that what CNN reported was false, he has a case. | ||
| Yet on that point, if you were simply able to depose Jeff Zucker, for example, and get the email chains of Zucker, Chris Berman, Don Lemon, Chris Cuomo, you would likely see a true, even though Steve doesn't believe in conspiracies, you would likely see a conspiracy within CNN | ||
| To take Trump down, and Zucker never hid that. | ||
| So, a suit like this, it's a civil suit, and doesn't that provide Trump broad powers to get that kind of data and depose people? | ||
| Well, if you want to show the actual malice, you would. | ||
| If you show that CNN made these false statements, and they knew that they were false, so they or they just didn't care, they had a reckless disregard on whether they were true or false. | ||
| Yes, you can get that information through discovery, through the civil lawsuit process. | ||
| So on the face of this complaint, Trump has a very- Mike and Peter, isn't this though, the threat of discovery, the threat of getting the emails, of getting the minutes from the notes, of getting the producers and all the producers and everybody that worked on this thing, sat in the meetings, and you got the stelters, you got the whole crew. | ||
| It's a good thing. | ||
| Isn't the threat of discovery and deposition, isn't this suit really put a shot across the bow of John Malone to say, number one, you got to clean this rat's nest up and number two, settle. | ||
| I mean, the last thing they will ever allow to happen. | ||
| If this is allowed to go forward is to get to that because, Peter, you're right. | ||
| You're going to see. | ||
| Remember, there's no coincidences. | ||
| You're going to see coordination between the shows. | ||
| You're going to see in talking about producers and blocks and people sitting there going, I don't know if we have the information on this, because if you go back and they cite specific case, you know, specific hits, I think this is to humiliate them on the discovery process in the depositions and to force the new owner, John Malone, to say, hey, we're not going to, number one, and looking at this, we've got to clean this mess up. | ||
| No more just, you know, change, as you said, Peter, change one or two guys out, but change the whole ethos. | ||
| Number two, it's a settle. | ||
| And to that point, we'll go right back to Mike. | ||
| The Dominion lawsuit, against the Fox News Corporation, I know this for a fact, put a tremendous, tremendous chilling effect across the talent at Fox News. | ||
| I mean, they were getting requests for all their emails, phone records, this, that, and the other thing, funneled into the legal department of Fox They were just dead-ass frightened, and almost overnight, Fox stopped covering the election issue. | ||
| They flipped. | ||
| They fired Lou Dobbs. | ||
| So these kind of lawsuits can have a chilling effect. | ||
| Mike, what say you on Steve's point? | ||
| Well, that might be the effect of it. | ||
| You can't say that that's his intent for filing this lawsuit, because there are anti-SLAPP provisions uh... when you're so when you when you make defamation lawsuits of that if you're doing it too silence people for x opposing you politically you can a sanctions for that i mean it's i don't think that's what from doing right what i see with this lawsuit is is he's part of being called a racist he's part of of of being accused of lying He's tired of CNN smearing him. | ||
| It was a pattern of smears against President Trump. | ||
| They defamed him. | ||
| And I think that this is a legitimate lawsuit to try to get CNN to admit that they defamed him and that they were doing false reporting to smear President Trump. | ||
| Steve, let's switch gears. | ||
| Why don't you throw Mike a question about the big tech oligarchy? | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| Yesterday, I've got to tell you, I haven't seen a segment blow up. | ||
| Look, President Trump is at the tip of the spear on this. | ||
| Right? | ||
| It's not just CNN, he says, that smeared him. | ||
| It's also the big tech oligarchs that essentially deplatformed why he was commander-in-chief of our nation. | ||
| The big tech oligarchs are a massive problem, and we can't look away from that anymore. | ||
| One of the big driving forces, Mike, in taking over the House has always been to hold these guys accountable. | ||
| And now, you know, yesterday your segment blew it up. | ||
| Tell us exactly where do you think, since you've dedicated your life to this, Where do you think we actually stand as a party and a movement on going after Big Tech and taking apart these oligarchs, sir? | ||
| Well, the problem is that our politicians in Washington need to stop taking Big Tech money, because then they do their bidding. | ||
| And it is a huge problem where you have politicians in D.C., particularly in the House and House leadership, who claim that they're taking on Big Tech, and they claim that they are going to be a champion for conservatives and small businesses. | ||
| And then, behind the scenes, they do big-tech bidding. | ||
| And we just saw this. | ||
| There were three bills that worked their way through the House of Representatives that would hold big-tech accountable, these antitrust bills. | ||
| They are very modest bills, but they're important bills. | ||
| One would allow state attorneys general to bring antitrust lawsuits in their home states instead of getting dragged out to the federal courts in California with tech-friendly judges and having their cases dismissed. | ||
| One would increase the merger filing fees on big-tech and lower them for small businesses So we can add antitrust law enforcement to make sure that Google and Amazon and Facebook and Apple aren't crushing competition, cancelling conservatives, shuttering small businesses. | ||
| would make these big tech platforms disclose if China or other American enemies are subsidizing their mergers, their acquisitions of other companies. | ||
| There is no reason that House Republicans should oppose these bills. | ||
| But only 39 House Republicans join these bills because Congressman Jim Jordan whipped so hard against these bills and it is baffling to a lot of people that he's doing this because he pretends like he is this champion against big tech when in fact he takes big tech money and his staff takes big tech trips and he needs to decide whether he's gonna be a Champion for his constituents back in Ohio or if he's going to continue to be Google ship | ||
| And Mike to that point this is the president's favorite word when He's upset with somebody's word disappointing I can't tell you how disappointed I am with Jim Jordan. | ||
| He is not the man I knew and sat with across the table in Air Force One. | ||
| The wrestler, the tough guy, the guy who comes in on the outside. | ||
| He has made his bed right now with Kevin McCarthy. | ||
| He's got his sinecure at the Judiciary Committee, and for whatever reason, that big tech money needs to sustain him. | ||
| That guy could win in Ohio, at least the old Jim Jordan, without spending a single dollar there. | ||
| I'm glad you called him out on that. | ||
| I was actually in a meeting on that when I was in the White House. | ||
| Trying to crack down on Twitter and Facebook. | ||
| I was astonished at the lack of will in that meeting. | ||
| Steve, go ahead. | ||
| No, that's the point. | ||
| I mean, because Jim Jordan is a good man. | ||
| He's revered in this movement. | ||
| That's what I think was shocking yesterday with so many people. | ||
| Everybody thinks he's anti-Big Tech. | ||
| So, Mike, give us the details. | ||
| Do they have to take this money to win Why had they done this, and why particularly a guy like Jordan, who, as you know, the president thinks very highly of, this movement thinks very highly of, is that he's going to be head of judiciary, probably one of the most powerful, if not the most powerful, chairman next, holding people accountable. | ||
| Why is he soft on big tech, in your opinion? | ||
| That's a very good question. | ||
| You wouldn't think that $15,000 of PAC money would buy off a politician. | ||
| It's unbelievable to me. | ||
| Here's my problem with Jim Jordan. | ||
| It's not like Daryl Issa. | ||
| Daryl Issa is fully supportive of tech, and you know what? | ||
| He should be. | ||
| Those are his constituents. | ||
| Back in California, Daryl Issa doesn't pretend like he's taking on big tech like Jim Jordan. | ||
| Jim Jordan pretends like he's taking on big tech, and then he does their bidding behind the scenes. | ||
| And what angers me the most about Jim Jordan is, not only does he do their bidding behind the scenes, but he knifes good people like Congressman Ken Bach, like Senator Chuck Grassley, my former boss, Mike Lee, Tom Cotton, for being friends with him. | ||
| Alright, Mike. | ||
| Mike, why don't you hang on? | ||

| Thank you very much for having me on, guys. | ||
| You're the best, Mike. | ||
| All right, this show, much of it was dedicated to the proposition I put forth in my book, Taking Back Trump's America. | ||
| That book is a mission. | ||
| What I said to you was, in order to win back the White House, In 2024, we first, first must win back the House of Representatives in particular, take that gavel out of the cold insider trading hands of Nancy Pelosi, peacefully at the ballot box. | ||
| And later on today, we're going to put up a list of candidates that you and the posse can help. | ||
| What we did with Richard Barras, Was winnow down a number of congressional races that are toss-ups that may have been neglected by the Republican Party in D.C. | ||
| That can win just a couple of them. | ||
| Kelly Cooper, Arizona 4. | ||
| Anna Luna, Florida 13. | ||
| Tyler Kirshner, Minnesota 2. | ||
| Gibbs in Michigan 3. | ||
| Smith in North Carolina 1. | ||
| We'll have a whole list. | ||
| Navarro's a dozen or so. | ||
| And this is the way to take back Trump's America. | ||
| It's not only getting out the vote on game day, as Jim Marchant told you, we need to overwhelm their ability to steal through sheer turnout. | ||
| It's also between now and the election day, helping these candidates get to the finish line. | ||
| And don't forget Blake Masters. | ||
| I'm going to kick it to Steve to take us out now with our next guest and a tribute to the great Loretta Lynn. | ||
| Steve. | ||
| Yeah, Jeff Rainford. | ||
| We got Jeff Rainford, the investigative reporter at the border. | ||
| Let's go there, Jeff. | ||
| You were there for a live shooting incident yesterday. | ||
| Can you give us a couple of minutes on where you are, what happened, what'd you see? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hey, Steve. | |
| Yeah, I'm in Eagle Path, Texas here. | ||
| And actually, the live active shooter was just this morning. | ||
| I saw a bunch of border patrol and state troopers racing out down the road here. | ||
| These people are coming across all over the place. | ||
| Cartels are dropping them, like, all up and down, down this road. | ||
| You can see the wall behind me. | ||
| But I saw these troopers just get in their SUVs and race down the road. | ||
| So I chased them on a whim, and then all of a sudden I hear there's active shooter military guys. | ||
| We got Army guys out here who are supporting, playing supporting roles for the Border Patrol. | ||
| They're racking their guns, Like, going down into a ravine, I'll turn you around. | ||
| This is the road where it goes up to. | ||
| It's closed now. | ||
| I was down in the middle of it all. | ||
| I had my drone up, cameras up, and then eventually I got kicked out because it turned into an active crime scene. | ||
| I believe there's at least one body down there. | ||
| Active shooter was the initial call. | ||
| I'm getting some Some other reports say it might be an actual suicide from a National Guardsman or a member of the military. | ||
| That's totally not confirmed. | ||
| Wow. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's not confirmed at all. | |
| So we don't know. | ||
| We don't know if this is active shooter. | ||

unidentified

| That's what I've heard. | ||
| Jeff, Jeff, you hang on. | ||
| You do more investigating. | ||
| Five o'clock today, we're going to be back. | ||
| We're going to have Jeff Rainforth. | ||
| He's down at Eagle Pass, Texas. | ||
| He's saying the cartels are just there in your face, dropping people off. | ||
