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 of 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've tried 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 lie?
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. Babb.
Thank you.
The wretch that would ensnare you shall spread his net in vain.
Should Europe empty, all her force will meet them in array.
And fight and shout and shout and fight for free American.
We led fair freedom hither, and lo, the desert smiled.
A paradise of pleasure was opened in the wild.
Your harvest, bold Americans, no power shall snatch away.
Preserve, preserve, preserve your rights in a free American.
Torn from a world of tyrants beneath this western sky.
We've formed a new dominion, a land of liberty.
The world shall own whiff, even here and such will ever be.
Huzzah, huzzah, huzzah, huzzah, for free America.
Some future days shall crown us the masters of the main.
Our fleet shall speak in thunder to England, France, and Spain.
Nations o'er the ocean spread shall tremble and obey The Prince who rules by freedom's laws in North America Very well.
The Congress will now vote on Virginia's resolution on independence.
Thank you.
Thank you for coming, Caesar.
God bless you, sir.
The secretary will call the roll.
And I'd remind you, gentlemen, that a single nay vote will defeat the motion.
Mr. Thompson? New Hampshire.
New Hampshire says yea.
New Hampshire says yea. Massachusetts.
Massachusetts says yea.
Massachusetts says yea.
Rhode Island says yea.
Connecticut says yea.
Connecticut says yea.
New York. New York abstains.
New Jersey.
New Jersey says yea.
Pennsylvania. Mr.
Secretary, Pennsylvania is not ready.
Please come back to us later. Pennsylvania passes.
Delaware! Delaware, by majority vote.
Aye. Says yea.
Delaware says yea.
Maryland. Maryland says yea.
Maryland says yea. Virginia.
Virginia says yea. Virginia says yea.
North Carolina. North Carolina yields to South Carolina.
South Carolina? Well, Mr.
Adams? Well, Mr.
Rutledge. Mr.
Mr. Adams, you must believe that I will do what I promise to do.
What is it you want, Rutledge?
Remove the offending passage from your declaration.
If we did that, we would be guilty of what we ourselves are rebelling against.
Nevertheless, remove it, or South Carolina will bury now and forever your dream of independence.
Sean, I beg you consider what you're doing.
Mark me, Franklin.
If we give in on this issue, posterity will never forgive us.
That's probably true, but we won't hear a thing.
We'll be long gone.
Besides, what will posterity think we were?
Demi-gods? We're men, no more no less, trying to get a nation started against greater odds than a more generous god would have allowed.
First things first, John.
independence of America. If we don't secure that, what difference will the rest make?
Jefferson, say something.
What else is there to do?
Well, man, you're the one that wrote it.
I wrote all of it, Mr.
Adams. There it is, Rutland. You have your slavery.
Little good may it do you.
Now, fool! Damn you!
Mr. President, the fair colony of South Carolina says yea.
South Carolina says yea.
North Carolina says yea.
Georgia. Georgia says yea.
Georgia says yea.
Pennsylvania, second call.
Mr. President, Pennsylvania regrets all of the inconvenience that such distinguished men as Adams, Franklin, and Jefferson were put to just now.
They might have kept their document intact for all the difference it will make.
Mr. President, Pennsylvania says...
Just a moment. I ask the delegation to be polled.
Dr. Franklin, don't be absurd.
A poll, Mr. President.
It's a proper request. Yes, it is.
For the delegation, Mr.
Thompson. Dr.
Benjamin Franklin. Yea?
Mr. John Dickinson.
Nay. Mr.
James Wilson. Judge Wilson.
There it is, Mr. Wilson.
It's all up to you now. The whole question of American independence rests squarely on your shoulders.
An entirely new nation, ready to be born or to die at birth, all on your say-so.
Which will it be, Mr. Wilson?
Every mapmaker in the world is waiting for your decision.
Oh, come now, James.
Nothing has changed.
We mustn't let Dr.
Franklin create one of his confusions.
The question is clear.
Most questions are clear when someone else has to decide them.
It would be a pity for a man who's handed down hundreds of wise decisions from the bench to be remembered only for the one unwise decision he made in Congress.
James, you're keeping everybody waiting.
The secretary has called for your vote.
Please. Don't push me, John.
I know what you want me to do.
But Mr. Adams is correct about one thing.
I'm the one who'll be remembered for it.
What do you mean? I'm different from you, John.
I'm different from most of the men here.
I don't want to be remembered.
I just don't want the...
Responsibility. Yes, well, whether you want it or not, James, there's no way of avoiding it.
Not necessarily, John.
If I go with them, I'll just be one among dozens.
No one will ever remember the name of James Wilson.
But if I vote with you, I'll be the man who prevented American independence.
I'm sorry, John.
I just didn't bargain for that.
And is that how new nations are formed?
By a non-entity trying to preserve the anonymity he so richly deserves?
Revolutions come into this world like bastard children, Mr.
Dickinson. Half improvised and half compromised.
Our side has provided the compromise.
Now Judge Wilson is supplying the rest.
James, I'm sorry John.
My vote is yea.
Mr. Secretary, Pennsylvania says yea.
The count being 12 to none, with one abstention, the resolution on independence is adopted.
It's done. It's done.
Mr. Thompson, is the declaration ready to be signed?
It is. Then I suggest we do so.
And the chair further proposes for our mutual security and protection that no man be allowed to sit in this Congress without attaching his name to it.
I'm sorry, Mr.
President. I cannot in good conscience sign such a document.
I will never stop hoping for our eventual reconciliation with England.
But because, in my own way, I regard America no less than does Mr.
Adams I will join the army and fight in her defense even though I believe that fight to be hopeless goodbye Thank you.
Gentlemen of the Congress, I say ye John Dickinson.
Okay, welcome back.

It is 4th July in the year of our Lord, 2023.
That is the recreation from the 1776.
So two things we've taken clips from today.
We've taken clips from John Adams, the HBO. And if you haven't had a chance to watch that, you really should.
It is, I think, a classic.
And the actors who take these roles are just extraordinary.
In fact, you'll lose yourself in the fact that These are the real people.
It's that well written and that well directed.
And of course, a ton of money went into making it.
So the recreations are just incredible.
But I strongly recommend everybody see the HBO miniseries.
Now, I guess it's got to be 20 years old, right?
Of John Adams.
But just extraordinary. Of course, every year, Turner Classic Movies plays 1776.
The Broadway musical, I was fortunate enough to see it on Broadway, but if you see, there's so many parts of the non-musical that are very, very powerful, incredibly well written, well acted, and you just saw there the vote.
What we try to do is always remind you of what...
These men went through and what they were risking to sign that declaration.
But to also remember, just like in many things, that was only the beginning.
It led up 100 years, led up to that.
And clearly the fighting part, it started back, what, in 1775 at the shot heard around the world at the Concord Bridge to when they met.
But they were just about to step into it as the...
As the war was really about to come home, not just what had happened at Bunker Hill in Boston or in Concord or Lexington, but was about to come to New York City, which Adam has always said was the key that picked a lot to a continent, but also the rest of the nation.
Okay, short commercial break. We're going to be back with our annual 4th of July special, one of my very favorite times of year.
Back in the war in just a moment.
unidentified
We'll let fair freedom hither, and lo, the desert smiled.
A paradise of pleasure was opened in the wild.
Your harvest, bold Americans, no power shall snatch away.
Preserve, preserve, preserve your rights in a free American.
Torn from a world of tyrants Beneath this western sky Lift up your hands, ye heroes, and swear with proud disdain.
The wretch that would ensnare, you shall spread his net in vain.
Should Europe empty, all her force will meet them in array.
And fight and shout and shout and fight for free American.
We led fair freedom hither and lo, the desert smiled.
A paradise of pleasure was opened in the wild.
Your heart is bold, Americans.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Welcome back. That artist is, and for those who have been with us for a number of years, whether it's over Memorial Day or Fourth of July, we...
Highlight always the music of Diane Taraz.
You can get her, she's got an album out called Songs of the Revolution, but she's also got many, many, she does her interpretations, or I should say these classic interpretations.
Of some of what I call the Great American Songbook, kind of the pre-20th century.
But it's just amazing stuff.
And I think it's Songs of the Revolution is off this album.
And there are so many songs like that, right?
I think that's British Grenadiers.
The song that British Grenadiers sang, take the music, and these are the lyrics that the patriots back in the revolution used.
And I find it extraordinarily powerful.
She's got many songs you've probably never heard of from that time.
Ones you've heard that are classics, but songs you haven't heard.
That will just really absolutely blow you away.
So it's well worth going to check out her albums.
Also, Larry Swiker, you know, the Patriots History.
Of the United States.
This was done. The Patriot's History was written.
And the reason it's an interesting book, and Larry's an interesting guy.
I've known Larry for many, many, many years.
And remember, that book became big because Rush Limbaugh was so moved by it that Rush actually came on a show one day and had a long...
I think he actually was reading pieces of it.
He was so blown away. And remember, Rush very, very rarely had guests.
It had to be something quite important for Rush to have guests.
I think they had Larry and his co-author, Allen.
I think Mike Allen is the co-author with Larry of the first, at least the first book.
Had him on, but that book exploded because it was a response to Howard Zinn's.
And Howard Zinn is this...
He writes the people's history, but it's really just a diatribe against everything we kind of stand for as a nation.
And, you know, we're populist here, so we understand the pressure that's put on everybody by the system.
And that's why, you know, President Trump, whereas The Patriot's History was a response to Zinn's book and to take it in a framework that MAGA could embrace.
Because most of this audience is either veterans or they have active duty servicemen of their children right now, or they are close friends with veterans or support veterans organizations, so they get what I call skin in the game.
So the Howard Zinn book was kind of a, you know, the left-wing version of that, and that got into every school.
It's one of the reasons that Carol Swain, Dr.
Carol Swain, who's an extraordinary Woman of her own.
I think she's one of the few people in history ever to walk away from full tenure at Princeton University.
She became a tenured professor there very, very young and relatively young and walked away from that.
And then she was a tenured professor at Vanderbilt, but she's never been shy about her fight for freedom and her support of the basic underlying tenets of the Judeo-Christian West.
And she's a fire breather.
Yeah.
her on the commission, the 76th commission, if you haven't heard about it or it didn't hit your radar, you know, a couple of years ago, President Trump set that up, was like many things in the Trump administration, he was thinking downrange. And what he was thinking downrange of is, you know, Memorial Day and the Fourth of July have turned, Memorial Day kicks off summer and the Fourth of July has always been this historic kind of midsummer right before that kind of mid-July, middle of
when a lot of people are on vacation, a lot of people are going to the beach.
I mean, they set the... Steven Spielberg, as I said, set Jaws into essentially Nantucket for the classic movie on the 4th of July weekend, and the businessman makes a huge deal about, hey, we got 4th of July.
It's our biggest time of year. You can't possibly blow it by saying we got sharks out there.
That is kind of what the Memorial Day and the 4th of July had devolved into.
It's just... We're going to go to the beach, we're going to have a barbecue, and that's fine.
That's part of the celebratory nature.
In fact, they celebrate the 4th with parades and bunting and having a good time and people coming together and having a feast for and treat it like a real birthday.
But it's also something much deeper in that, as we've gotten farther and farther away from that, you know, fewer and fewer people.
It's like the military, where 1% of the people in our country today have served in the military and served in the military and understand the sacrifice that goes into it.
Not that you're in an all-volunteer force.
Not anybody makes you do this.
Your volunteer, as people that have been in the service will tell you, it was the greatest time of their life.
Right? I tell people this.
My time in the Navy as a naval officer was just the most fantastic time I've ever had.
And yes, you're dedicated to your country and the defense of your country, protection of your country, but you get more back Than you could ever put out in the same day.
But as that gets smaller and smaller, it's just like what Dr.
Swain, the issue she faced is the issue that if you look at the schools today, it's one of the reasons for the Moms for Liberty and all these groups.
You know, we had the moms up for the last week.
And on the weekend show that you see that, you know, more and more, right?
A smaller and smaller group of people really understand or study the documents or understand the history of it.
And when Larry Swigert brings up an interesting point in the 100-year run-up, that this just didn't happen, this revolutionary moment just didn't happen, just like what's happening in this country today just didn't happen.
It has deep precedent to it, and the motive power of individuals making it happen, or in our case, stopping it and not allowing it to happen.
And what both Larry and Dr.
Swain both brought up is a centerpiece of this.
Is this understanding of the Judeo-Christian West and how the religious beliefs as outlined in the Bible, the Old and New Testament, are inextricably linked to this.
And this is what people, you know, many of them are trying to run away from today.
And I would argue that Carol Swain is right.
If you see from the 1960s today, the decline of our nation, the spiritual decline of our nation is absolutely tied to not having These types of lessons and this type of material put into what's called formation, the formation of young men and women.
That even through the history of this country, even before the revolution, with very little resources and much of it homeschooled, And even when you started public schools, these dedicated teachers on the prairie and with very little resources, was the McGinty Reader and a few other things, a few other documents, could help to form the mindset and the worldview of generations that would become world leaders.
How did that happen? What is it...
Lincoln had, I think it was like Plutarch's Lives of the Noble Romans and Greeks, the plays and sonets of William Shakespeare, and the King James Version of the Bible, where his essentially reading material, because remember, he was uneducated.
Read those speeches. Read Lincoln's second inaugural address.
Read his first inaugural address.
Read, obviously, the Gettysburg Address.
All of it. How profound it is.
Go back and read the Constitution.
Read the Federalist Papers and the Anti-Federalist Papers.
The understanding and the deep understanding of not just humanity, but the Divine Providence.
And Divine Providence is handed us.
Read the Declaration of Independence.
Read the biographies of the men that led that and fought for this.
But always remember, the one takeaway lesson When that was signed, you know, what day was signed, the 4th, the 5th, the 2nd, on the 2nd of July, the first ships of the Expeditionary Army of the British Empire, the British Army, which had been taken out of Boston, taken up, I think, to Newfoundland for a while to refurbish in Canada, and then other troop transports met it from the Royal Navy.
But the Royal Navy came into New York Harbor.
Unaccosted. There was no opposition.
Okay? I believe they started to come ashore in Staten Island.
In fact, as I mentioned before, Staten Island became one of the largest populations.
They basically disembarked there and they set up their base there for their advance over to later by August 22nd when they had all the ships there, which was the largest expeditionary force ever.
I think in that time of human history, even compared to what the Romans did in some of the expeditionary forces they did in Syracuse and the Punic Wars, this was a massive undertaking.
The British sent their best combat troops, their best shock troops.
The Royal Navy, I think there were seven or eight ships of the line, which are essentially battleships.
I think there were 20 or 30 frigates.
There were an extraordinary number of transports.
There was a thing that people used to look out over New York Harbor when their whole fleet got there in the later part of July, in the first part of August, and said that you felt like you were in London at the dock sites, right?
At the dock sites. So just absolutely extraordinary that when they actually signed it, When they signed, because they essentially signed in blood, they had crossed the Rubicon.
Every one of those men...
Knew that the expedition of the British, of the Imperial Majesty in all its might, was coming to the United States, and they just were not going to take this declaration and say, fine, it's a magnificent piece of thought, it's a magnificent piece of literature, it's brilliant, and yes, when you list out what we've done, what the Crown has done, you're correct, you know, King George understands this, and you have your freedom.
No. That was the beginning of a process. A process that started with the first shots at Concord and Lexington.
That had started at Bunker Hill and at Breeds Hill.
But was all to come to fruition now.
Was to come with the really beginning of the conflict and everything that laid ahead.
And remember, what laid ahead from basically July 4th all the way to Christmas night of 1776 for six months essentially was nothing but defeat.
One defeat after the other.
Okay, short commercial break. We'll return in the War Room on our 4th of July special in just a moment.
unidentified
Some future days shall crown us the masters of the main.
Our fleet shall speak in thunder to England, France, and Spain.
Nations o'er the ocean's spread shall tremble and obey The Prince who rules by freedom's laws in North America How'd that make you feel? Giving a child his freedom?
you It felt good.
You have been at this for 12 years.
My country tis of thee Why are you doing it?
Slave land of liberty Because God's children are not for sale Of thee I swear It is the fastest growing international crime network that the world has ever seen.
We're Homeland Security.
You know we can't go off rescuing Honduran kids in Colombia.
This job tears you to pieces.
And this is my one chance to put those pieces back together.
And yet somehow, you have failed to bring me one real-worldly It's over ten.
Close up and come back home.
So you quit your job and you go and rescue those kids.
Let freedom ring.
Let freedom ring.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
South of that river is all rebel territory.
unidentified
No one goes in.
Don't shoot!
What if this was your daughter?
So, she's gone.
Hear that?
that.
That's the sound of freedom.
Sound of Freedom is one of those films that can legitimately change this world.
So we want to ignite a fire in audiences and open their eyes to the dark reality of millions of children that need our help.
Let's make this film a historic event and a start at the end of child trafficking.
Theatres across this country are already selling out.
Pre-order your tickets today and you can send the message that God's children are no longer for sale.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, welcome back. It's not simply about America as it was at her birth, the United States, her birth in 1776.
It is about where we are today and where we're headed.
That film, The Sound of Freedom, one of the haunting things of the trailer is to play my country tis of thee and that young girl's voice or the young children's voice is quite haunting.
The movie's called The Sound of Freedom, and it's released now over this 4th of July kind of holiday to send a message to Hollywood, but also The Sound of Freedom has caused one of the punchlines in the movie, or the punch of the movie is about exactly that term, The Sound of Freedom. That's why this film is so powerful, but here's why it's so disturbing.
And it's important that you go.
Go to Angel.com slash War Room to get your ticket or to get tickets for your family or your friends or your colleagues to go see it together and go back and discuss it.
Because as Eduardo Avestigui, who's the great Mexican actor who's really the producer of this film, and Jim Caviezel, Who have really dedicated, you know, eight years of their life.
It was many years to get it financed, many years to get it made, and it is a mini-classic or a mini-masterpiece.
It's taken three years just to get to the theaters.
And the studio, Angel Studio, The Harmon Brothers have just done such an extraordinary job on The Chosen, right?
Just did such a great job on The Chosen.
They've put their shoulder to the wheel on this and have really gotten into theaters of over 3,000 screens, which is extraordinary in a holiday weekend, 4th of July, particularly when you have...
What was it? Indiana Jones and these other films, the Tom Cruise, Sandwiched Between.
This is the biggest opens of the year, quite frankly, in films that are the most awaited, like this Indiana Jones film is, for years and years and years.
And people realize it's a popcorn movie type time of year, right?
It's not the fall or the winter where people are in a more serious mode.
It's, you know, get out to the beach and have a good time.
The thing that's so shocking about this is Tim Ballard's life story.
And he's such a hero, and that's why Caviezel plays Ballard.
And Jim basically has submerged himself into this role.
What's so disturbing is when you find this, it's not just the methodology and what the government's doing, these agents like Tim Ballard are doing to track down the human trafficking and the trafficking, particularly not just of women for sex, but of children. The reason the trafficking is so bad is not that they're so efficient in actually doing it, of which they are.
It's an industrial process.
Because it's done at such a scale, this is not small.
This is not onesies, twosies.
This is an industrial process.
It is that the demand side of the equation is so insatiable.
And that demand side of the equation is from the United States of America.
There's other nations in the world. China's got a problem, but the most advanced economy in the world has an insatiable demand for this.
How can that be? How can that be?
We're paradise found.
We are the new Jerusalem.
This is what the revolutionary generation and those that come before it understood.
There was something different here.
And we became something different.
Franklin said that during the debate on the Declaration.
That Americans were not Englishmen.
We had become something different, so we were a different species.
As he said, we were rougher, coarser, more practical.
But something was created here that was different.
Something was created here that was different in the entire history of the world.
We've achieved more.
We've freed more people than any nation on earth.
We've created more value and more wealth than any nation on earth.
We've shed blood on foreign battlefields, not for conquest, but to free people or to keep the freedom of other people, not ourselves, than any nation in the history of the earth.
And now in the 21st century, we have to face a very unpleasant fact.
Certain elements of this are just off track, and some of them are so far off track that at least it's something deeper and darker and wrong.
And you can't quite figure it out.
The one thing you can figure out, and that's why this film's so important, you understand that there's an insatiable appetite that's drawing this, that's making this happen, just like the drugs.
An insatiable appetite.
unidentified
Well, what causes that appetite?
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
And remember, Jim, this is just about the trafficking for sex.
Jim Caviezel goes into a whole other element of the use of the children's body parts.
That's another whole aspect of this.
Jim Caviezel is the one that brings up constantly what is the role of even the government or certain agencies or certain elements of certain agencies in this?
Because I think it was the Department of Homeland Security official said there's like 85,000 Children in this current invasion that they can't track and are missing.
You've had the whistleblower, and you saw O'Keefe.
When O'Keefe did the whistleblower, she was the DHS official, I think, down and responsible in the Houston area.
And she said, you know, there's these brothels of these children all over.
And he says, we don't even follow up.
We don't even track it. And people come down and sign up for these children.
They're not even doing DNA tests.
We don't know who they're going with.
Caviezel brings this up also.
It was one of the reasons for President Trump's, the very tough policy President Trump did of separation at the border.
And President Trump made of, you know, absolutely, you had to go back, return to Mexico.
No exceptions.
President Trump put these policies in.
President Trump's really the first president that came out and said, hey, this human trafficking, particularly human trafficking of women, And children for sex is a problem, and we're going to put it into it.
We're going to stop it. And here's the elements I'm putting in.
Remember, the Biden administration ripped off all aspects of the Trump thing were ripped off in the very first things they did on the afternoon of the 20th.
Why? Why did they do that?
On We Build the Wall, the Border Patrol guys came to us and said, this is where we really need it.
If anybody's seen the movie Sicario, that separation of El Paso from Juarez and really upside that mountain where the stature of Christ is right at the top, kind of on the other side.
Up that mountain, they said this is where the cartels bring the women.
If you go up there and see what was left behind, you couldn't even imagine.
You can't describe it on radio or on our show on TV or on a podcast.
You can't even talk about it.
It's so horrible. How did that happen?
How did that happen?
If you told the revolutionary generation that, just that fact, forget everything else in the decline of this country.
Forget everything else you've seen in the last couple of weeks.
You've seen these praises, you've seen all that, you've seen it on TV, you've seen all of that.
If you just told them that one factor, if you'd sat in Philadelphia, in Independence Hall, with the flies and the heat and they're sweating things around it, but they're having these debates of the core of the humanity's better angels of itself.
And you told them, hey, close to the 250th anniversary, 250, a quarter of a millennia from now, with all the advanced technology and everything that you're doing here, this country you're doing that's so special and founded by divine providence and is the new Jerusalem.
And all the goodness, everything that's going to happen, all the technology and all the fighting for freedom in Europe and the First World War, the Second World War, in Korea and Vietnam, all over for people's freedom.
And President Reagan freeing a billion in Eastern Europe with the collapse of the Bolsheviks.
That close to its 250th birthday, when most of the generations of you guys in the room who are kind of the main decision makers now, but most of your families even will have kind of just expired into nothingness.
There'll be some, you know...
Relatives, but they won't be like you.
They won't be in the room itself making the decision.
This is you here 250 years from now.
That this country as an advanced post-industrial powerhouse would be the main drivers of the demand side of the equation of an insatiable appetite for sex with children.
They wouldn't even know where to start.
They wouldn't even know how to conceive it.
They would not understand, be very tough.
These are some of the smartest guys in world history.
Some of the smartest lawyers, they go, what are you talking about?
Remember, most of them, if they had not been to divinity schools, were very inspired by what came out of those divinity schools, and particularly the foundational text we have, which is the Old and New Testament of the Judeo-Christian West.
They would have had a very tough time understanding you.
And if you went into the details, think about it for a second.
Think about if before they signed, we showed them the sound of freedom.
Think about it. Just wave the wand and you can show them the sound of freedom.
What would they say about us?
What would they think about us?
When they were about to sign, would they be hesitant and say, hey, I could get hung, drawn and quartered, bankruptcy.
We put it all on the line here.
Is this worth it?
The very fact that we live in a country today that could put that question into those men's Tells you everything you want to know about this country today.
Because we are beyond vantage decline.
unidentified
We are close to the free fall.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
And it is just this audience that is between us and the abyss.
So on this 4th of July, I want to make sure you understand your importance and But also your responsibility.

Okay, make sure you go to Angel.com slash War Room and get your tickets.
See The Sound of Freedom. Ask yourself that question.
See the film itself and then ask yourself the question about where the country is right now and how this happened.
How we devolve to this.
It also raises tons of questions about this invasion of the southern border.
Because nothing quite makes sense.
I keep telling people, you know, you can kind of get to the idea behind many, many things.
But like this whole thing in Ukraine doesn't really make sense.
And this is why I think the revelations of what the Biden and the crime family, the laptop from hell, helps you understand it.
Because it doesn't make sense.
Trust me. I was an aide to the Chief of Naval Operations when I came off of sea duty.
And I had a very high security clearance back then in the early 1980s during the first days of the Reagan administration.
So I saw the way the Pentagon works at the highest levels.
Right? And I know the decision-making process also as being a senior aide to President Trump.
There's something that it's just not about the vital national security interest in the United States.
There's something deeply wrong with that.
There's something deeply wrong with this invasion on the southern border.
Can't quite get your arms around.
That's why I think seeing this movie is very important, particularly over the holiday season.
It is about the sound of freedom.
It will shock you. Before I close, and I want you, with all that, to go out and have a great holiday.
Remember, we don't ever want to downplay the celebratory part because that's very important, where it kind of ties it all together and makes it worthwhile.
There's a story that in Vicksburg, Vicksburg fell the day after the Gibraltar of the Mississippi fell the day after Pickett's charge at Gettysburg.
And after a long siege, in fact, a siege, probably as tough as any siege in history, one of them, where they were actually, you know, eating rats and they were barely hanging on, barely living.
When the Confederates surrendered, they didn't celebrate the 4th.
It surrendered the day after Pickett's charge on July 4th.
Was it 1863?
They did not celebrate the 4th of July for 100 years there.
So the celebratory part is very, very important, very, very important in our nation's history.
We're not telling you to do it, but also because you are the war room posse, you are this cadre, and you are that thin line between chaos and civilization.
That you're the thin line, after that it's the abyss.
Or was it Louis XIV after me, The Deluge?
Right? That's what's so important about your role.
You are a participant in this drama.
If you go back and look at the movies around the HBO miniseries with John Adams, or you look at 1776, you look at all the movies about the revolution, which there haven't been a ton of.
And there particularly haven't been a ton of good ones.
If you see that You are now, in future times, will be a participant.
This is why I say you're a combatant.
You're a combatant in this fight.
And this fight is at a spiritual level, it's at a political level, it's at a legal issues, and you see it all unfolding every day.
And we've got some very turbulent times before us.
Think downrange for a second.
I think Caroline, Dr.
Swain, really teed it up today.
Will we even have a republic?
On the 250th anniversary?
I think that question can be on the table.
I think you've seen this in what's happened and what's happened in the past couple of years.
And really the removal of Trump from office and everything that's happened, everything that happened even from him winning in the early morning hours of the 9th of November of the year of our Lord 2016.
We're now, what, seven years, six and a half years after that?
And this fight, every day has been a fight.
Every day has been a struggle. As will every day from here on in and every day in Trump's second term.
Remember, it'll be the summer after the first year.
2025 will be the first year of his second term.
2026 will be the second.
So the 250th anniversary will be 18 months, roughly, into Trump's second term.
Think of it that way.
Will we have a republic if he's not returned to office?
Will we have a republic if MAGA's voice is not heard?
I think that's a very open question.
And I say that seriously.
That's why we have serious people on here.
And look at our tracker for telling people, look what's going to happen.
Look what's going to happen, what, in less than 60 days in Durban.
You know, ever since World War II, we've been, it's not just been Pax Americana, but it's also been because of our economy, because of the savings and hard work of you, the middle class and working class in this country, and your pension money.
And look what's happened to that.
The dollar as the king dollar, the dollar empire has underwritten a bunch of that.
That's all about to go away.
The beginning of us are about to go away.
But of course you know that because you're a War Room Posse member.
Okay. The rest of the day, class is dismissed.
Go out. We're going to go have a great time.
You do the same. We'll be back at work tomorrow.
We will be back to work tomorrow to continue the fight.

The fight to answer Ben Franklin's question.

Or assertion. A republic, ma'am, if you can keep it.
We're into the keeping part here in the war room.
unidentified
We'll see you tomorrow morning at 10 a.m.
We've formed a new dominion, a land of liberty.
The world shall own we free, even here and such will ever be.
Huzzah, huzzah, huzzah, huzzah, for free America.
Some future days shall crown us the masters of the main.
Our fleet shall speak in thunder to England, France, and Spain.
