This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.
I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
The people have had a belly full of it.
I know you don't like hearing that.
I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
It's going to happen.
jake tapper ▲ ● ▼
And where do people like that go to share the big line?
MAGA Media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
unidentified
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Bamm.
Perhaps the most important fact, the most important takeaway is that Enrique Tarrio, leader of the Proud Boys, was convicted of seditious conspiracy and other felony federal offenses even though he wasn't even at the Capitol that day.
He wasn't even in D.C. that day.
That, my friends, is an important bit of what I'll call atmospheric precedent.
You know why? You know who else wasn't at the Capitol that day?
Steve Bannon, Mike Flynn, Roger Stone, Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, John Eastman, Donald Trump.
They weren't at the Capitol that day.
But to be responsible for the crimes that occurred at the Capitol that day, presence is not required.
Buckle up, fellas.
You know, friends, I sat in on some of the Proud Boys trial, not nearly as much as I sat in on the Oath Keepers trial, but I was in the courtroom for some of the closing arguments.
I heard some of the prosecution's argument.
I heard some of the defense attorneys make their closing arguments.
And you know what my favorite line was?
It didn't come from the prosecutors.
It came from one of the defense attorneys.
He argued to the jury, Ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump's statements Let's go to the Capitol and I'll be right there with you.
Let's march to the Capitol.
Fight like hell or you won't have a country anymore.
Now go to the Capitol and stop the steal.
The defense attorney argued, ladies and gentlemen, those statements will be government exhibit number one in the future criminal prosecution captioned United States of America versus Donald Trump.
I couldn't agree more with that defense attorney and his argument.
In fact, I think it was prophetic.
...inexorable prosecution.
I said earlier that I never would have imagined mild-mannered Merrick Garland as Inspector Javert in the famous musical, but he has been.
I'm just curious about where you think this might still go.
As Joe said, we have this figure, I'll call him the unindicted co-conspirator, to use the Watergate term, who sits atop this.
Garland has shown that he is willing to go harder and farther than people might have imagined.
What do you see as coming next, surprises down the road?
Remember, David, that unindicted co-conspirator was individual one in a Southern District of New York indictment charging Michael Cohen.
That said, This is a case where you take Merrick Garland at his word.
He said he was going to follow the facts.
That's precisely what they've done.
He said he was going to hold people responsible who committed crimes on January 6th and in connection with that.
And that's what he's done.
I think there's an important point here that folks often miss.
The Department of Justice, by design, has an extraordinarily thin political layer.
Overwhelmingly, the men and women who are bringing these cases in the U.S. Attorney's Office and investigating these cases for the FBI, overwhelmingly, are career prosecutors and investigators.
This is what they do.
And they're good at it.
Now, Garland deserves the credit when they do it well, and he deserves the blame when they do it poorly.
But there is an inexorable march toward justice here because career prosecutors and agents are following facts.
To Ken's point, there's a lot of witnesses out there.
You know, I know this not as a criminal, but as a former prosecutor.
Committing crimes and getting away with it is extraordinarily difficult.
As an example, you know, the ongoing investigation at Mar-a-Lago regarding the documents and perhaps the movement of the documents, the obstruction of the investigation.
There's a lot of people who know stuff about that.
You ask those people questions and you follow the facts.
Well, Tim, on the topic of the courts, what is your reaction to the latest revelations about Clarence Thomas?
And then do you want to put a wager down on when you think Senator Feinstein will return to the Senate?
Well, I'm jealous, a little jealous of Clarence Thomas.
I guess I don't want to breathe very many rules, but it must be nice to have a billionaire sugar daddy paying for tuition, paying for your mom's rent, you know, taking on private jets.
It's a good gig if you can get it.
Look, I think the latest from the Washington Post, though, is the most troubling thing yet, in all seriousness.
If you look at this deal between Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society, where he tells Kellyanne Conway to pay Jimmy Thomas, but not to report it.
I mean, that is a direct, possibly, violation of the law, certainly another example of corruption.
And look, I just, I don't think anything's going to happen because there's no way that the Republicans are going to push Clarence Thomas out while Joe Biden gets to nominate the next Supreme Court justice.
And there's no way to get 66 or whatever it would be, 67 votes in the Senate to impeach Clarence Thomas without Republicans.
So it is obviously corruption.
The Republicans have shown they don't care about that.
They didn't convict Donald Trump after he tried an insurrection.
I just, I don't see them convicting Clarence Thomas over this.
So there is a huge domestic terrorism problem in this country as the Department of Justice and the FBI understand.
That is one of the reasons, as was just noted, this is such an important victory for not just the Justice Department.
but for all of us to combat the idea that you can not just voice your opinions, but you can do so through violence.
This is now the 14th conviction of the most serious charge, seditious conspiracy, where we had nine convictions with respect to Oath Keepers.
We now have had five convictions with respect to the Proud Boys.
It amps the pressure up on Jack Smith because so far the leader, the person who caused all of this to take place, has not yet been charged.
And so the question of should there be charges against the former president becomes one that I think answers itself when you see people, lower-level people, such as people who were just convicted, being brought to justice, but you don't see the leader yet.
I want to make sure that the Department of Justice feels that pressure today.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Friday, 5 May, the year of our Lord, 2023.
We've got a lot to go through the day, so buckle in.
And we've got to start with, and I want to make sure people understand exactly what's going on here.
They can't stop the Trump movement.
They can't stop you. And they're infuriated that you have a say-so in your country.
They're particularly infuriated that you know how to use leverage.
Okay? So it's driving them mad, mad that you have a say-so.
Particularly your head of the creditors committee, New York Times today, lead editorial on the Times, from Paul Krugman, who won a Nobel Prize, was awarded a Nobel Prize, talking about minting, I'm not kidding you, in the pages of the paper of record of our beloved republic.
Printing the $1 trillion platinum coin to make sure the MAGA extremists can't get spending cuts.
We're going to get to all that.
But here's the point. The polling, you know, and Trump is grinding up.
The primary's over. There aren't going to be any debates.
You know, the RNC's got Dave Bossy got to wake up here and understand what's going on.
Trump's numbers are now, they've shocked the establishment and the apparatus.
I think Harvard-Harris has him up.
I think it's 45, 41.
Rasmussen, 47 or 48, 41.
The key number is the bottom number there, the denominator.
That would be Biden. Biden is hanging around in the low 40s and not moving.
And these are the best numbers he's ever going to get because this economy is cratering around us as the regional banks balance sheet implode.
So the only way they're going to stop Trump is law fair.
The only way they're going to stop these great judges that President Trump nominated for the federal bench in the Supreme Court is to come at them and either scare them with assassinations, not protect their homes, everything.
There's never been a court.
There's never been justices. And this is one of the most organized, well-orchestrated hits I've ever seen on one of the finest men in America.
Let me bring in Mike Davis.
And Mike, first off, thank you for carving out time.
I know you were out there. With the War Room Posse last night in Michigan delivering a fire-breathing speech as only you can.
But I want to talk about the J6, what's happened here in the last 24 hours.
And clearly, obviously, they don't care about the Proud Boys, just like they didn't care about the Oath Keepers.
You got a Valley Girl, Andrew Weissman, as Julie Kelly properly pointed out last night.
He sounds just like a Valley Girl.
He's going over the Galleria later.
To do some shopping.
That's an L.A. joke for people from Los Angeles.
Mike Davis, your thoughts, observations about what's really happening here?
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
So first, I want to thank the Manistee County Republicans for having me come out and do their Lincoln Day speech last night.
It's a 6,000-person town and 200 of them showed up.
And we talked a lot about this weaponization of our justice systems, our politicization and weaponization to go after Trump, Trump, Trump's top aides, Trump supporters.
Now they're even going after conservative Supreme Court justices.
People need to understand that this is lawfare.
That's They fear they can't beat Trump in the polls in 2024.
So they simply indicted him in New York with Alvin Bragg's bogus case against Trump, and they're going to indict him down in Fulton County, Georgia, and Jack Smith's going to indict him in D.C. So this is lawfare.
It's unprecedented what the Democrats are doing.
These charges are bogus.
Remember what happened on January 6th.
The protesters had a permit from the National Park Service to protest on January 6th.
The Electoral Count Act of 1887 specifically allows presidential candidates to object to presidential elections.
So does the First Amendment.
It is only a crime to object Two presidential elections in third world Marxist hellholes.
And what happened on January 6th was a protest, got out of control, and turned into a riot.
It was not a seditious conspiracy.
It was not an insurrection.
Do you think that every grandma who showed up and walked into the Capitol and took selfies on January 6th was part of some seditious conspiracy or insurrection?
No, it was a protest that got out of control.
And remember, Democrats are the kings of protests that got out of control.
We had BLM and Antifa riots destroy our country for months.
They attacked the White House.
They attacked The Portland Federal Courthouse on a nightly basis.
They took over federal land and shot at cops.
They burned St. John's Church.
They attacked Senator Rand Paul, a U.S. Senator, leaving the White House.
Let's talk about dangerous riots.
They weren't charged with seditious conspiracy.
They weren't charged with insurrection.
They were barely charged. Many of them got amnesty.
Many of them, the charges were dropped.
But this is the Biden Justice Department They're politicizing the justice system, working with local DAs, these woke Marxist DAs around the country.
They're trying to take out Trump because they fear they can't beat him in 2024.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Mike, and we're going to hold you through the break.
I understand you've got to bounce, but I want to hold you through the break.
But before we go to break, because we'll get to Justice Thomas after that, Trump is going to be up five, six, seven, eight points in the polls.
Over Biden, is Merrick Garland going to cause and trigger a constitutional crisis if they try to do this in August, September?
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
Well, I mean, this is the same Merrick Garland who authorized an unprecedented, unnecessary, and unlawful home raid on a former president to go get documents that the Justice Department was not entitled to go get because the Presidential Records Act specifically allows a former president to have his presidential records in the office of former president, which is funded by Congress and protected by the Secret Service with staff, And security clearances and skiffs.
Yes, we dodged the biggest bullet ever when my former boss, Chuck Grassley, blocked Merrick Garland to the Supreme Court and then Trump won and put my other boss, Neil Gorsuch, on the Supreme Court because it would have been a much different country if Merrick Garland were on the Supreme Court.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Let's hang on for one second.
Mike Davis, who's leaving to catch a flight, having given a great speech out in Michigan.
With a ton of War Room posse showing up.
By the way, Cortez was in Montana.
Same thing. I want to thank the War Room audience for supporting our great contributors as they show up to bring fire to the hinterland, the heartland of this country.
Short commercial break. Back in a moment.
The attack on the Supreme Court is relentless.
unidentified
Here's your host, Stephen K. Banff.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, welcome back. Brother Davis, walk me through the Supreme Court, one of the most important institutions in our nation, and probably the world, from time immemorial, and now just a relentless assault.
The audience has to understand something.
This is a political war, and our opposition will use any means necessary to win and to have control.
And we don't. We don't.
What they're doing to the Supreme Court and what they're doing to Justice Thomas is one of the most organized hits I've ever seen in my life.
And I've seen a couple of organized hits.
Maybe run one or two in my life.
This is pretty awe-inspiring.
They're coming at every different direction.
They've done years of research on this.
They've weaponized it. And it's all to take out Justice Thomas.
Mike Davis, your thoughts and observations.
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, we talked about this last night at the Manistee Republican Lincoln Day dinner.
Look, for the first 150 years of our republic, the Supreme Court understood its critical role was to keep the federal government in check to protect everyday Americans from government overreach.
And government breakdown.
And that was perfectly well understood until about 90 years ago.
And when the Democrats threatened to pack the Supreme Court because the Supreme Court was striking down FDR's New Deal program as unconstitutional, then there was the switch in time that saved nine.
And they threatened to put Six more justices on the nine-member Supreme Court, this liberal supermajority to make sure that they rubber stamp everything that these politicians in Washington wanted to do.
And for the last 90 years, we've seen how badly that's turned out for our country, where we have the federal government that's completely out of control.
Our founders would be stunned to find out what they have created with our federal government.
We flipped the Constitution on its head.
And said the federal government has unlimited powers, essentially, instead of limited powers that are enumerated in the Constitution, then we have this administrative state where this fourth branch of government thinks it's the legislature, thinks it's the executive branch, and thinks it's the judiciary.
It's just gotten out of control.
The Supreme Court has changed.
President Trump transformed The Supreme Court with the appointments of Justice Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett, and it's the first constitutionalist majority on the Supreme Court in nearly 90 years and they're on the verge of rolling back the federal government.
We have the Chevron case this term where hopefully by July they're going to overturn Chevron deference and put a major check on these administrative agencies and that's what the Democrats fear.
That's why they're doing this organized campaign to go after the Supreme Court.
They're trying to delegitimize The Supreme Court justices so they can destroy the Supreme Court.
Either cow the justices to rule the way the Democrats want, or destroy the Supreme Court with court packing, impeachment, jurisdiction snatching, Term limits, and that's what they're trying to do.
They have hated Clarence Thomas for 40 years since he escaped the Democrats' plantation.
Jenny Thomas, his wife, never worked in the Democrats' kitchen.
They've tried to destroy the Thomases for 31 years that he's been on the Supreme Court.
It's not going to work.
They're only going to embolden the man.
And it's the Clarence Thomas court.
President Trump delivered from the 5-4 left of center court to the 5-4 Clarence Thomas court.
And it is the last line of defense protecting Americans from these politicians, power grabs and tyranny and anarchy.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
I want everybody in the audience to understand, because this is going to be a major strategic element when we talk about saving this republic and taking the country back.
And what Mike Davis walked you through this morning is absolutely of the highest.
It's one of our, this in the parental rights, the stopping, not just the woke agenda, but specifically as part of that woke agenda, this out-of-control transgender ideology and all the grooming.
In the schools and the libraries with these activists called teachers.
Those are two on the domestic side.
The economy and the war of geopolitics are also massively important.
Don't get me wrong. But these two, the courts and the parental rights, are what firing people up.
Trump comes out of nowhere, gives a list of 20 judges he's going to put up, including Gorsuch, who nobody knew at the time, because of his brilliance In understanding how to deconstruct the administrative state, nobody really knew this guy except people inside the system like Mike Davis who knew he was a brilliant, brilliant Alito-like, Scalia-like intellect and writer.
You had that upset kept Garland, you know, they would have ruled forever with the Clinton administration.
This is the power of Trump's victory in 16.
Then you had these two decisions by the Trump court and Mike Davis was there to shepherd These amazing justices through, and remember the Kavanaugh fight, and I said, if you look at the Kavanaugh fight, when it was over, they ran across from the Capitol, the Supreme Court, remember banging on the doors?
I said it was just like the French Revolution.
That was the signal right there.
They were off the chain. And they've got two aspects of this.
The emotional, which is the Dobbs, right?
Which gets all the emotion.
They got all the emotion of their shock troops in the streets on the Dobbs and abortion and all these.
But the one that they really fear, the smart money, the West Virginia decision, and now putting Chevron on the agenda, when you have brains like Kavanaugh, you have brains like Gorsuch and Alito, it's game over.
You have to have a multi-pronged attack to deconstruct the administrative state.
You have to come at it in multiple ways.
But the one way we have to do it is the tip of the spear is illegal.
Mike Davis, this is why, and I'm telling people right now, you ain't seen nothing yet about what they're prepared to pull on Trump.
And this is why I'm telling them, there's not going to be a primary.
There's not going to be a primary.
I don't care what Asa Hutchison and Chris Christie and, you know, and Vivek, good guy, don't care.
Nikki Haley, don't care.
Tim Scott, nice guy, love the story, don't care.
We're at war. And they're coming, and the only way they're going to stop the onslaught that we have set up for them, and the Lisa Monaco people know that, hey, they're going to be looking at jail time for what they've done once we get into the records, Lisa, Sequoia, what you're hiding, Lisa, Sequoia, they know it.
And these people know how to play Smash Mouth, do they not, Mr.
Mike Davis? Oh, yeah.
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
I mean, this is not our parents' or grandparents' Democrat Party.
These are leftists. These are Marxists.
All they care about is power.
And like good Marxists, they're willing to put in prison their political enemies and the supporters of their political enemies.
Now they're going after the judges, the Supreme Court justices who are in their way.
This is a transparent Attempt by the Democrats to destroy anything that gets in their way.
And remember, these Democrats who pretend like they care about separate branches of government and democracy and insurrection have cheered on from the Biden White House and the Biden Attorney General's office.
They have cheered on illegal obstruction and intimidation campaigns outside of Supreme Court justices' homes for months.
They gave a stand-down order To the U.S. Marshals where the U.S. Marshals could not arrest these illegal protesters for obstruction of justice under 18 U.S.C. 1507.
And the people in the know understand that this stand-down order almost certainly led to Justice Kavanaugh's 1 a.m.
assassination attempt against Kavanaugh, his wife Ashley, and their two teenage daughters because these U.S. Marshals had a stand-down order and they couldn't tail the guy after he left the front of the house and he went behind the house and almost killed the Kavanaugh's.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Mike, last thing.
I know you've got to bounce, and I appreciate you doing this before you head to the airport.
Justice Alito gave an interview to The Wall Street Journal, which they very rarely do, and this is a guy of the highest moral and ethical standards.
I mean, he laid it out right there about Dobbs, how it got leaked, why it was leaked, and the intimidation, and actually brought up they wanted to assassinate us.
What were your thoughts of Alito's actual comments, which I found stunning, sir?
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
Well, he's spot on.
There were Supreme Court justices who had to get moved to safe houses after the Dobbs leak, and that was the intent at the Dobbs leak.
There's no question that the law clerk, one of the 12 liberal law clerks to the three Democrat-appointed Supreme Court justices, almost certainly leaked the Dobbs decision.
They leaked the draft decision along with the internal deliberations of the Supreme Court Justices conference discussion.
So it had to have been one of the nine justices or one of the 36 law clerks to the nine justices.
It's almost certainly one of the 12 law clerks to the three Democrat-appointed justices because they had the access and the motive.
And the motive was to get Justice Kavanaugh, Justice Barrett, one of the justices to switch their vote or get them killed.
And that almost played out as planned.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
And here's what they also know.
The three liberal progressive left-wing justices they have on there are no intellectual heft, no gravitas, no ability to write an opinion.
They're not only outnumbered by votes, they're massively outnumbered by intellect.
Am I incorrect on that, Mike Davis?
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
Look, I've met Kagan.
I've met Sotomayor. I know them.
They're very good people. I don't know Justice Jackson.
unidentified
You and I did a number on her during her confirmation.
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
But look, I think Kagan has the most intellectual heft.
If I were Democrats trying to pick off Kavanaugh and Roberts from time to time, I wouldn't have picked Justice Ketanji Brown-Jackson because she's not going to persuade them on anything.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Right, exactly. Mike, what's all your coordinates here?
Because you now become one of the lead elements in this fight because they're coming for Trump.
They're coming for Trump because they can't beat him at the ballot box.
They can't beat him at the ballot box, and they certainly can't beat his movement at the ballot box.
So they're coming for him, and they're going to come as hard as you've ever seen it in the next 90 days, ladies and gentlemen.
So strap in. Mike Davis.
How do we follow you, sir?
mike davis ▲ ● ▼
I just say, finally, if conservatives don't win in 2024, the White House and the Senate, we're going to lose the Supreme Court.
We're going to lose our country. It's game over.
And we say that many elections.
This is the election of Democrats take over the Supreme Court.
There goes our Rights to speak, associate, worship, and protect ourselves out the door immediately.
And so it's article3project.org, article3project.org, at article3project, at article3project, on gettertwittertruth, and at mrddmin.
unidentified
Thank you, Steve.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Thank you, brother. Thanks for doing this.
Thanks for the speech last night.
Love the fact that guys are out in the hinterland spreading the word.
Okay, short commercial break.
We've got a lot to go through today, and we're going to get to all of it.
Next. Only in the world.
unidentified
Well, the virus has now killed more than 100 people in China, and new cases have been confirmed around the world.
So 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.
anthony fauci ▲ ● ▼
Because if you don't, and the worst happens.

War Room. Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
Yesterday, the emergency committee met for the 15th time and recommended to me that I declare an end to the public health emergency of international concern.
I have accepted that advice.
It's therefore with great hope that I declare COVID-19 over as a global health emergency.
However, that does not mean COVID-19 is over as a global health threat.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, there you have it.
It's official on 5 May in the year of our Lord, 2023.
The WHO The arbiter of all this declared that the, um, declared the pandemic.
So, you know, I kind of miss, I love the new open, but I kind of miss pandemic.
I kind of miss Fauci's voice over there.
That was a great Raheem Kassam that put that together in the opening days of pandemic in the, um, in January, 2020.
Fantastic job, Raheem.
Um, And now you get WHO and the World Health Assembly trying to change everything so they take our sovereignty.
We'll get to all that.
I want to go back to where we stand and make sure people understand the importance of you in this audience in this drama.
You are...
Right now the key to saving this republic, and here's why.
Do you have the power to execute on everything you want executed on to save this country?
No, you do not. But where you are right now is a blocking, a strategy of denial.
There's a book written by one of the Trump guys about China.
Very good book talking about how you deny them certain Things they want to do in control of Asia, the Eurasian landmass, everything like that.
He misses the main point.
You've got to take down the CCP, which is we could do that in 100 days.
The head of the snake's gone.
The snake dies. Nobody wants to focus on that.
They don't want to focus on that.
But that is what has to happen.
And the powers that be understand that this audience gets that.
This audience also knows how to use power now.
You've done a tremendous job so far in this debt negotiations.
And I realize we haven't gotten any cuts yet.
We've stopped the rate of growth.
Maybe. But they realize that you're a player at the table.
And to wit, Today's New York Times.
And this is not a small thing because Krugman, although I think he's crazy.
Remember, he missed inflation. I don't really think he's an economist.
I think he's just kind of a columnist.
He's got this thing. This is where we force him to.
This is where we force the great Paul Krugman with his Nobel Prize.
This is your work.
This is what you've done as head of the creditors committee.
This is what you've accomplished.
And this is not small.
On the pages of today's New York Times, the paper of record...
And remember, this is kind of the news for the Wall Street Journal.
I'm going to get to the FT in a second.
The FT is obviously much better as from the globalist perspective.
Paul Krugman...
And if the Denver can kind of pull in, I know it's kind of tough as I put my papers up.
Oh, you got it. Oh, you've actually got it from the thing.
Man, oh man, my hey baby.
It's not quite the feel as I got it, but it's the Rachel Maddow thing is what they do.
Okay, let's put it up there. Paul Krugman didn't have a chance to underline it, but he's talking about, and we're not making this up, this kind of gimmick, this weird thing about the trillion dollar coin.
That could get you through any kind of debt ceiling?
He's talking about it.
He's actually offering up.
He says, I know it's a gimmick.
I know it's a gimmick.
As for the platinum coin, the law allowing the government to mint a trillion dollar coin was never intended as a way to bypass debt limit extortion.
But the debt limit was never intended to provide a mechanism for extortion either.
One of you guys have enough guts to come forward and let's talk.
It's not the debt ceiling, quad the debt ceiling.
It's the out-of-control spending that buries the working class and the middle class more.
They say, oh, no, no, we're providing...
No, you give them little...
It's little tips.
You give them crumbs, maybe a crumb.
Here's a crumb. But overall, in the macro sense, you bury them more and more and more and more, and it's not going to stop, it's not going to stop, it's not going to stop.
Even the comment today is in there about McCarthy, they're already talking about the next, what they call the next hostage taking, because they know it's here.
They have not come up, and they have not had enough respect for you And somebody said the other day, one of the people on here, one of the comments said, you know, we show the love every day for this audience.
You know, love's not a term I use loosely.
It's respect. We respect you.
When we do this show, we put this show together for like my grandfather and dad, two guys I respected, who one went to the third grade, the other graduated from high school, but they were the two smartest guys I knew and read various readers.
They're like much of this audience.
You didn't go to Cambridge. You didn't go to Harvard.
You didn't go to Georgetown. You didn't have those opportunities.
But guess what? I've been in the rooms with those guys, in the boardrooms, in all the meeting rooms, and the bing, ba-bang, ba-bang, and you're just as smart, if not smarter.
You want to get this country sorted out?
Give me the first hundred people that show up at a Trump rally with a red ball cap on.
Give me those versus the top.
If I had a combination of either the U.S. Senate as 100 or if I took 50 McKinsey's top partners and added the 50 top partners at Goldman Sachs, I want the guys in the red ball caps.
The common sense, the humanity, the lived experience.
I'll take that. If we had that, we wouldn't be in this jam and we're in a jam and they don't like it.
They don't like it at all.
You know what they don't like? You know what drives them absolutely crazy.
This is what gets them the most.
Up until Trump, it was totally complacent.
That's what controlled opposition means.
That's what controlled opposition means.
Think about it. Think about you and your own personal life, what you supported, that you rang doorbells and gave money for, for the Bush Hunter, for these wars all over the world.
For the increases of debt that the Republicans put on.
I'm not saying they're not blameless.
No, the Republican Party and many of the leaders of the Republican Party, 100%, that's what they're trying to get McConnell into this negotiation of kowtowing to the CCP, of losing our sovereignty, of letting this country be invaded.
Consistently, with now, I don't know, 10, 20, 30 million illegal aliens in the country, 10 million, it'll be 15 million by the first year, the first and only term of this regime, 15 million, as President Trump said last week on this show.
What drives them absolutely nuts, and they hate Trump, that's the power of Trump's books, Letters to Trump.
That's Trump pre-coming down the escalator.
He was beloved by these folks, right?
And he's hated. Why is he hated?
Not cause of being Trump, because he gave you this seat at the table.
Not in the room, not in the deal.
Take your number two pencil, you got to write that down.
Not in the room, not in the deal.
Not only are you in the room now, you chair the creditors committee and they hate that.
God, they hate that.
Your betters hate that.
That you've actually been able to fight and to get this small majority in the House.
And I realize it ain't 100 seats and it ain't for 100 years, but we're going to get there.
You just stick with the program.
We're going to get there. And the first thing we're going to do is take away what's important.
And what's important is their ability to spend and spend and spend.
Look at Cortez's daughter who's here the other day.
Just gave you five minutes of it, ten minutes of it, of what's in the Woken Weaponized.
It's enough to make you vomit what you're paying for.
And what? Another one out?
50 % of the people can't put the hands on $400 in cash?
That's been out there for a while.
What are we going to do about it? What are you going to do about it?
Here's what we're going to do about it.
You're going to turf out anybody that doesn't have your back.
Because right now you've had a belly full of this.
And here's what they're doing.
They can't beat you at the negotiating table in May and June of 2023.
And they're gonna make damn sure, take your number two pencil out and write this in the book, too.
They're gonna make damn sure that Trump is not back.
I said this at CPAC. Old man Murdoch, the guys on Wall Street, the oligarchs on Wall Street, Silicon Valley, the oligarchs.
You had Peter Thiel come out.
I like Peter. Peter's a good man.
Peter Thiel's a very good man.
But Peter's coming out now.
First, he wasn't gonna be in it. Now, if DeSantis is the nominee, I'm all in.
Hey, Peter, go back to doing bank runs and being a transhumanist and doing bank runs on Silicon Valley Bank.
Go back to do that. We don't need to hear your voice about it.
DeSantis is done. He got weighed and measured in London and came up short.
He is not going to be president of the United States this cycle.
And if he doesn't fire that clown staff he's got, and if he doesn't stop listening to Ken Griffin He ain't gonna be President of the United States in 2028 or beyond, to be brutally frank about it.
And the reports of people I talked to in London were ten times worse than the awful press he got.
So you got Trump.
He's an instrument.
He's an instrument of the will of the American people, the forgotten man and woman.
And you ain't forgotten anymore.
I got Paul Krugman. I got proof.
I got a receipt.
I got a Nobel Prize winner.
I got a Nobel Prize winner talking about printing a platinum.
I mean, not a gimmick, a bizarro.
I got him rational.
And he justifies that at the end.
He says it's a gimmick.
He says, but I need a gimmick.
Because what they're doing is a gimmick.
No, what we're doing is saying you cannot continue this madness.
Because they talk about, well, Biden put up a plan, $3 trillion.
unidentified
$3 trillion does have these tax, had the tax, all the tax on the wealthy.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
By the way, I think they should have, I told him, you should have passed those immediately and let Biden dare him to sign it.
He ain't going to sign it. All the wealthy are progressive Democrats or establishment Republicans that hate everything you stand for and don't care if your kids are overwhelmed by the radical Ideology that they're trying to jam into the school by these Marxist activists with the blue hair and the green hair, formerly called teachers or librarians.
And you don't think they'll stop at nothing?
You don't think this is a French Revolution?
Go back and look at the clip when they ran across the plaza and started banging on the doors of the Supreme Court.
Because that bang is right now what they're doing in an organized hit on Clarence Thomas.
One of the finest men In modern American history.
And they're coming for Trump.
They're coming for Trump.
Because they can't beat him at the ballot box.
And if they can't beat him at the ballot box, that means you get a bigger role.
You get more seats at the table.
You get seats at more tables.
unidentified
And they are not prepared to do that.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
They will not allow that.
Short break. Back in a moment.

This new one looks pretty good.
Really? Did you know Ron DeSantis backed deep cuts to Social Security and Medicare?
Ron DeSantis? Yeah.
He voted to cut Social Security or Medicare not once, not twice, but three times.
DeSantis even tried to raise the retirement age to 70.
I thought DeSantis was one of the good ones, but he's just another career politician.

You know, Governor DeSantis just signed some great bills down in Florida.
The assembly down there is doing, I think, a terrific job.
I don't buy the theory of the case that 2024 is going to be about, well, it's going to be a major element of it.
I think Carrie Lake actually tweeted that out this morning about the economy and World War III and other things that are going on, small things, like the destruction of the American economy, global war, and the Eurasian landmass.
That we're instigating, at least the western front of that.
It's not that it's not going to be important.
Those, particularly the way they poll, are massive winners for us.
The parental rights movement and everything around it, the radical ideology.
Also the court. The court and the justice, the American people, are not going to let this happen.
That's going to be another big winner.
But we're going to have to bring more than that.
And this is going to be a fight like you've never seen before.
And you're about this summer Don't get too far away from the war room or from the podcast you listen to or the TV, the news you watch, which should not be Fox.
You should turn that off. That's an insult to your intelligence.
And what they're doing in Tucker Carlson is, and remember, this is all the Murdochs.
They're taking all this stuff they've had for years.
They've never had, he's never had any issue with management ever and never had any issue with management after he gave his deposition.
These are pure evil people.
Understand that they're pure evil.
The Murdoch's ought to be run out of this country, a bunch of foreigners over here, and they have played this so there really hasn't been an opposition.
That's what I want you to understand. That's nothing but the Washington generals to the radical left's Harlem Globetrotters.
It's just performative.
As long as they get their taxpayer.
By the way, we ought to go in and take the illegal way he became an American citizen in the middle of the night so he could honor broadcasting.
Broadcasts will be taken away from him.
The way it got it.
Not even about the economics of what they have because I know that's quite different given the mergers and the sales and everything they've done.
But what they're doing to Tucker is premeditated.
And what they're doing to Tucker is cause that time slot, as Tucker became a popular, he's the first man, he wasn't a populist, in fact he gave that great speech at Heritage that is a landmark speech as Josh Hammer, the great Josh Hammer Newsweek came on the show, the first guest we had Monday morning.
unidentified
Exactly why I had Josh to start the week off.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
That monumental speech of Tucker where he went through his life starting as a copy boy or junior editor at some newsletter and then the Heritage, all that.
He went through the ranks as a journalist and then as a broadcaster.
And he talked about the changes in the country and the changes in him.
But go back and look at it.
It's because there wasn't a fight.
There wasn't a fight.
When we had a Reagan and took down the evil empire, that was a fight.
When we had Reagan there to try to stop the madness coming out of the 60s and 70s, that was a fight.
Then Jim Baker and all those corrupt Bush guys and the Bush 41.
And remember, Bush and Scowcraft and all that crowd are the first guys when the Chinese people, when Lao Bai Jing stood up in that plaza.
For weeks and weeks and weeks, and when they put up Lady Liberty on Tiananmen and face down the most monstrous dictatorship of the 20th century, and baby, that's saying something.
That's a pretty high, you got Pol Pot, you got Adolf Hitler, you got Joseph Stalin, you got quite a crowd there.
And they murdered more people in cold blood and starved more people and brought more and aborted and killed more babies.
The slaughter of the Chinese Communist Party is It's indescribable when you really study the history of the cannibalism, what the people went through, what Laobajang, what the little guy went through.
When you can say it was worse than the Ukraine in the 30s, when you say it's worse than what the Soviets did, when you say it's as bad as what Hitler did, you're saying something.
And who had their back?
Who flew Skullcroft over 30 days into it?
Bush 41. Bush 41.
Cut a deal with the CCP. We'll keep you in power.
We're going to cut some big deals here.
We're going to change a little of the economics so we get a bigger taste.
Not conspiracy. You read James Mann, you read anybody.
And talk to the people there.
That's exactly what they did.
And that is what has created the existential threat.
And they still won't back off it.
And you know what stands between this country and the abyss?
You know what stands between this country and the abyss?
You. You.
Not Tucker Carlson, not Steve Bannon, not Donald Trump, you.
That's why they're after Donald Trump, and that's why they're after Tucker Carlson.
And remember, always remember this, as hard as the left came after Tucker, every night he's this, replacement theory, he's terrible, he's awful.
He hung in there and took it up the next level, always ratcheting it up.
Get a base, go up next.
unidentified
Boom, Tucker Carlson.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
The Murdochs took him out.
Remember that. If you watch Fox, you're supporting that.
That's just a hard reality.
And I know President Trump doesn't totally agree with me on that.
There are many people who don't agree with me on that.
And they've got some fine folks over there.
Some people I really respect and admire.
That's not the point.
The point is, there's a fifth column in this country and they're a part of it.
And they will kowtow to the CCP as much as anybody.
Heck, Murdoch, I don't know, of the 12 wives he's had, you know, one of them was the CCP asset, Wendy Dang.
Hardcore CCP asset.
CCP Intel asset when he met her, when she was the anchor of what, Sky News, Sky News China, or the Asian TV, with the Hutchison-Wampoa family, Richard Lee and family.
Okay, short commercial break.
We've got a lot to get through, and we're going to get through it all.
But today's a day for reflection, for you sitting there and understanding it's you.
It ain't Trump, it's not Tucker, it's not Bannon, it's not anybody.
