steve bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
Pray for our enemies.
unidentified
Because we're going medieval on these people.
steve bannon
You're not going to free shot 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 line?
donald trump-jr
MAGA Media.
jake tapper
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.
Hi there, everyone.
nicolle wallace
It's 4 o'clock in New York.
There is a lot happening this hour.
History unfolding, a flood of new developments to tell you about.
Just a few minutes ago, Donald Trump, the disgraced ex-president, the frontrunner for the Republican nominee for president, four times indicted, departed his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
He's en route to Fulton County, Georgia via Newark Airport, we believe.
He will surrender himself for processing at an overcrowded jail with a reputation for violence and neglect.
A jail that is accustomed to holding defendants facing charges up to and including violent crimes where stabbings are frequent.
Actually, three people have lost their lives over the last month.
That jail...
Is where the disgraced ex-president of these United States is heading right now.
You know, Carol Lennon, there are maybe a handful of stories that are so surreal that when you are saying the words out loud and I think of the early months of COVID, frankly, all the months of COVID and seeing streets all around the world empty.
I think of the days and weeks and months after 9-11.
I think of You know, any sort of international natural disaster tragedy.
But this is one of those stories where you say the words Donald Trump will take a mugshot today.
steve bannon
OK, I want to if Denver and my crack production team here in the war room could please do me a favor.
And I want to play that first one over again.
I want the audience To savor this.
I want you to savor on a day that is one of the most tragic days in the constitutional history of this nation.
How they're laughing and but I got to play that first part again.
So let's play.
I want to play Nicole Wallace, but tell me when it's booted up.
Go ahead.
Let's play the second part doesn't have the impact.
I want everybody to watch her.
To watch the laugh, the tone of the voice, but also her choice of the words, images.
unidentified
Let's hit it.
nicolle wallace
Hi there, everyone.
It's 4 o'clock in New York.
There is a lot happening this hour.
History unfolding, a flood of new developments to tell you about.
Just a few minutes ago, Donald Trump, the disgraced ex-president, the frontrunner for the Republican nominee for president, four times indicted, departed his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
He's en route to Fulton County, Georgia via Newark Airport, we believe.
He will surrender himself for processing at an overcrowded jail with a reputation for violence and neglect.
A jail that is accustomed to holding defendants facing charges up to and including violent crimes where stabbings are frequent.
Actually, three people have lost their lives over the last month.
That jail is where the disgraced ex-president of these United States is heading.
steve bannon
See the laugh?
See the laugh right there?
They think this is funny.
This is – I want everybody to embrace this and I want you to think about that when you see that cast of clowns last night, the Keebler elves doing elf things to Rupert Murdoch's beck and call in Milwaukee last night.
It's Thursday, 24 August, year of the Lord 2023.
We've got a lot to go through here.
Obviously, we're the pregame for this historic trip to Atlanta for Donald J. Trump, which is only going to, in the polls, catapult him to higher numbers.
Let's go live.
We've got Real America's Voice, our own Ben Berkram.
You're normally seeing him in the Darien Gap or in the Rio Grande Valley, but today he is outside the federal courthouse in the Sheriff's Department.
Ben, give us an update.
What's going on?
ben bergquam
Yeah, Steve, it's a tragic day and you heard that little cackle in her voice.
That's what the Democrats want.
They want him dead.
They want everybody who supports liberty dead.
This is how evil, this is the evil that we're up against.
They're salivating right now over the mugshot that they're anticipating getting today.
It's not.
It doesn't end there.
This ends when America falls, and that's what these people want, and they will not stop until that happens or until they're defeated.
That's why this is so critical.
This isn't just about an indictment here in Georgia or the other three indictments across this country.
This is about the life or death of America.
Those are the stakes.
We're standing out here.
Our wheels are up.
President Trump's in the air on this tragic day.
He's coming here.
But as you mentioned, The people are waking up.
We have people all over the place down this street.
We're anticipating President Trump will probably be leaving.
I'm going to walk you over this side over here.
He's either going to be coming in this way or possibly leaving.
We've got hundreds of Trump supporters that have sat out here in the heat all day sweating.
We've got hundreds more across the street over here.
Barricades have been set up.
We see them with the riot gear, law enforcement.
We hear Antifa is down the street.
The Democrat henchmen may be showing up.
But that's what this battle is about, Steve.
It's not about President Trump.
It's not about the 18 other co-defendants.
It's about the American people and the life or death of this nation.
steve bannon
Ben, correct me if I'm wrong, have they put the barriers out and all that to try to break up whatever type of demonstration or protest or at least gathering rally that Laura Loomer, she was trying to put together a classic Trump rally.
Did they set the barricades up to make sure people couldn't congregate together?
ben bergquam
Yeah, that's what it seemed like.
I mean, when we showed up this morning, basically it was bottlenecked.
It was funneled into this no-win situation where they put the media all over here.
The pool media is in this large area over by the main entrance to the jail.
There's tons of space over there, but they said you can't go over there.
They said everyone had to come and congregate on this little tiny path where there is no sidewalk, and they said you couldn't be in the street.
And so it forced people out into the street and immediately, about a half an hour after everyone started showing up this morning, it justified them putting this barrier up, which makes it almost impossible to move.
So you've got some people up here, you've got people getting forced out over here.
They've made it a nightmare for anyone to show up logistically, trying to find anywhere to park.
You're talking about miles away.
At this point, they started towing cars.
So they've done everything they can to try to keep Trump supporters out of here for sure.
steve bannon
What's the tone and tenor of the folks there?
ben bergquam
Uh, it's a combination.
I would say it's, it's, they're pissed, but there's also solidarity in that they're standing behind president Trump because they get this.
As president Trump says, as you say, this isn't about president Trump.
It's about we, the people.
And so they understand that you've got MAGA folks.
Actually, if we turn the camera over here, I just want to show some of the folks, you know, it's, it's, it's basically like a little family reunion.
You got people kind of brave in the heat, ma'am.
Do you mind if we, we just show, we got other people on the other side.
They're just waiting.
They're going to wait here until president Trump shows up.
They're not dissuaded at all.
They're continuing to stand up for this country.
But the general consensus, I've asked everybody that we've been talking to, is this going to help or hurt President Trump?
And the consensus is clear.
This is only going to help President Trump, but they're afraid for what it means to the country as we move forward.
They see what's happened in the polls.
They saw that dismal debate last night with With pompous Judas Pence and weak DeSantis.
I mean, there's just no comparison.
Trump is the nominee, but that's why they're increasing the date.
They're moving the date forward, trying to get this trial started in October.
They were going to do it in March, and now they're trying to do it sooner.
I think they're going to do everything they can to either put him in prison, to try to take him off the ballots for the primary election, or to end his life.
I talked to a lot of people, and they're surprised how long President Trump has lasted with these demons that he's facing.
But God is behind him.
There's no question about it.
God's angel armies go with him, and they go with the people that are out here.
steve bannon
Talk to us about this whole development today, about trying to move the... In March, it was ridiculous enough to do an 18-person RICO trial.
Talk to us about now they want to do it in October.
ben bergquam
Yeah, it's an absolute joke.
You're talking about in less than two months to be able to prepare for a trial of this scale?
I mean, it's clearly, they're not taking it seriously.
But this was never serious to begin with.
We know that.
The timing of all of this, the fact that they waited until primary election season, none of this was serious to begin with.
It's all political games.
It's all designed to tear President Trump down.
And every step along the way, when it's failed, it's failed, it's failed, they've had to redirect And change tactics.
And this is no different.
Initially they were going to do it for Super Tuesday.
Now they're trying to do it in October because now they hear worthless, terrible governors, traitors like Gavin Newsom say that they're going to try to keep President Trump off the ballot using the 14th Amendment.
So now they're trying to shift tactics again for Democrat states.
It's all political and the people of America see through it.
steve bannon
Senator Moore was on this morning.
I know he was out there today among the people.
One of the things he talked about was that President Trump and these others are political prisoners.
ben bergquam
Your thoughts?
Yeah, well, and look, you know, this isn't it.
This isn't where it started.
I mean, we had four years of a coup against President Trump.
They talk about insurrection on January 6th.
We had a coup.
We had traitors in our own government, the Russia collusion hoax, all of this, all of this against President Trump for four years.
They sent Antifa and BLM out into the streets to terrorize America.
And then now we see this.
And then on January 6th, now we have political prisoners that have been in jail since January 6th.
that are being held to this day.
This is just a continuation of the tyranny that we see growing in America and really the change of the justice system to the injustice system in America.
And I would say probably the people that get it the most, I had a Colombian woman who came to me and she said, I escaped Colombia.
She said in the 70s and 80s, they did the exact same thing.
They turned our country communist and we paid the price.
And that's why we came to America.
And you guys don't get it.
You don't see what they're doing to your country.
If they do it here, there's nowhere else to go.
They get that.
We have people from Venezuela.
We have people from Cuba.
We have people from all of these countries that understand the stakes we're talking about.
And sadly, most of the American people have no clue.
But that's what we're talking about.
They are political prisoners.
And if this is allowed to continue, if the American people don't stand up, they're coming for you next.
steve bannon
Ben, yesterday we put up some shots on media row in Milwaukee and it was, quite frankly, it was dismal.
Very, you know, only about a third of even the stalls were taken.
Very few of the A team was there, mainly B team and C team.
What's the media, what's the media, how have they represented themselves in Atlanta?
ben bergquam
Oh, they're rabid dogs, Steve.
I mean, this is, you know, it's what we've come to expect.
It's the same thing that you've experienced.
I mean, you talk about political prisoners, what you've already experienced as well.
Anybody who stands up against this, and I would say this, the media, the fake news media, now there are a couple good ones that are here down this line with us, but the majority of the media, they're the reason that we're standing here.
We had people that pretended to represent The truth in America, and for years they've lied to us.
They've lied to the American people.
We used to trust them.
That's why we exist, Real America's Voice.
We exist today because of the complicity of the mainstream media, the propaganda media, in pushing this.
And so they're out here, they're salivating, they're just like this guy wearing a rat costume, walking around here thinking that they're winning today, when in reality they're losing.
America is turning away from them, they're turning them off, they're turning us on, and that's why.
They don't trust them anymore.
They trust us.
So they can get excited.
They can wave their pom-poms today.
They can act like this is a victory lap.
But it's really just the beginning of the American people standing up, fighting back, and taking this country back.
I truly believe that.
That's why they're not there.
They know the GOP, that debate last night, was just... It was the C team.
It wasn't even the B team.
It was just disgraceful.
steve bannon
Ben, Tucker and President Trump melted the internet last night with now hundreds of millions of people watching it.
How big is the mugshot going to melt the internet?
ben bergquam
You know, again, this is one of those awesome things.
What the enemy means for evil, God is going to use for good.
I absolutely believe that.
We've already got people out here that are going to be making t-shirts.
It's, you know, the Teflon Don of our day, President Trump.
And what's really interesting, nobody's talking about this.
I've had several people come up.
I had a mom come up to me and say, my son is in this very jail.
He's been in there for a year and three months on RICO charges himself.
Uh, she said the injustice to a black woman, black son.
She said the injustice that they're doing to president Trump is the same injustice that they're doing to my son.
And what we're seeing, what I believe we're going to see is people across America, people you wouldn't even think would be Trump supporters are going to start waking up and saying, wait a second, they're doing that to him.
They're doing the exact same thing that they did to me or to my brother or to my uncle or to my dad.
People are realizing this.
It's the same enemy.
I think they're waking up to it, Steve.
And I think that mugshot is going to be the death nail for the Democrats.
steve bannon
Exactly.
For Nicole Wallace, remember, there are more tears shed for answered prayers than for unanswered.
Ben Berquam, you stick around.
We're going to come back to you.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
We're going to attempt to get up Kimberly Guilfoyle and Don Jr.
will be next.
Naomi Wolf is going to join us.
We've got Caroline Wren.
We're pretty packed this afternoon.
We've got the pregame.
For President Trump's arrest and arraignment, turning himself in, in Atlanta, Georgia.
Be back in a moment.
unidentified
It's all started, everything's begun, and you are over.
Cause we're taking down the CCP.
Spread the word all through Hong Kong.
We will fight till they're all gone.
We rejoice when there's no more.
Let's take down the CCP.
donald trump-jr
Trying to ban people from actually having discourse about politics.
unidentified
How un-American.
Probably shouldn't surprise any of us.
But that's what it is.
I've been told by others that I would be able to go in.
donald trump-jr
So they said we were able to go in, then they said they were and now that we're here.
unidentified
Who said you can't go in the spin room?
donald trump-jr
They're telling me right now.
unidentified
He's saying Fox said that.
Fox won't let me into the spin room.
And that's what the American people should know.
This is the kind of network they are.
They're telling him, he works for security here, but they're telling him that I'm not allowed to go in there.
donald trump-jr
Because the candidates that they've been boosting while simultaneously trying to cut down Trump for the last, what, two years?
unidentified
Didn't perform as they had hoped.
donald trump-jr
So they can't have someone who can maybe be a representative of my father.
Just like a few weeks ago when I was canceled after the first indictment, I was scheduled to go on.
And about five minutes before I'm on, I found out I'm no longer on because apparently I wouldn't be a great surrogate to talk about my father's indictment.
unidentified
Just so we understand what we're dealing with here.
So it shouldn't surprise any of us.
donald trump-jr
And it's also why Trump was 100% right to not go to this debate.
It's beneath him, and when you know that you're walking into a setup because of exactly these kinds of circumstances, you understand exactly what's going on.
unidentified
In mainstream media, even conservative.
donald trump-jr
I like to knock the one side, but I got to call balls and strikes.
This is no different than what we see from the Democrats.
It's no different than what we're seeing from the Fulton County DA when they're trying to put a gag order on Donald Trump so he can't defend himself in court proceedings.
And, more importantly, to function as an intimidation tactic for anyone else who would defend him, where the DA there is then saying, hey, we're going to add you people to the indictment if you take part in this.
unidentified
I don't know, guys.
It doesn't reek of democracy.
donald trump-jr
All the people that have been screaming that for the last six or so years, especially during the Trump presidency, when I believe we had a lot more freedom than we do now, or certainly since this administration's taken over, are strangely quiet.
unidentified
But I guess we shouldn't be surprised.
tucker carlson
Can I just ask you, that gets back to my original question.
So if the protest didn't work, you got elected anyway.
Impeachment didn't work twice, obviously.
Indictment is not working.
Your poll numbers go up.
When they raided Mar-a-Lago in August of last year, your numbers went up.
they can indict you 20 times and you're not gonna lose the Republican primary because of that.
donald j trump
Well, it makes it look even more ridiculous.
I mean, the four indictments and maybe there'll be more, I don't know, these people are crazy.
tucker carlson
But they're counterproductive, so if you chart it out, it's an escalation, is what I'm saying.
So what's next after, you know, try to put you in prison for the rest of your life, that's not working, so like, don't they have to kill you now?
donald j trump
I think the people of our country don't get enough credit for how smart they are.
And I'm not sure I would have said this 10 years ago, but they get it, you know?
They really get it.
When somebody gets indicted, your poll numbers go down.
When somebody gets indicted, you announce, ladies and gentlemen, I'll be leaving to spend time with my family and to fight for the rest of my life on this stuff.
But you're out of politics.
I got indicted four times.
All trivia.
tucker carlson
It started with protests against you, massive protests, organized protests by the left, and then it moved to impeachment twice, and now indictment.
I mean, the next stage is violence.
Are you worried that they're going to try and kill you?
Why wouldn't they try and kill you, honestly?
donald j trump
They're savage animals.
They are people that are sick, really sick.
You have great people in the Democrat Party.
You have great people that are Democrats.
Most of the people in our country are fantastic and I'm representing everybody.
I'm not just Republicans or conservatives.
I represent everybody.
I'm the president of everybody.
But I've seen what they do.
I've seen the lengths that they go to.
tucker carlson
Do you think we're moving towards civil war?
donald j trump
There's tremendous passion and there's tremendous love.
You know, January 6th was a very interesting day because they don't report it properly.
I believe it was the largest crowd I've ever spoken before.
And you know some of the crowds I've spoken before.
And like July 4th on the mall, I think they had a million people there.
But I think that the biggest crowd I've ever spoken before was on January 6th.
And people that were in that crowd, a very, very small A group of people, and we said, patriotically and peacefully.
Peacefully and patriotically, right?
Nobody ever says that.
Go peacefully and patriotically.
But people that were in that crowd that day, a very small group of people went down there, and then there are a lot of scenarios that we can talk about.
But people in that crowd said it was the most beautiful day they've ever experienced.
There was love in that crowd.
There was love and unity.
I have never seen such spirit and such passion and such love, and I've also never seen simultaneously and from the same people such hatred of what they've done to our country.
tucker carlson
So do you think it's possible that there's open conflict?
We seem to be moving towards something.
donald j trump
I don't know, I don't know, because I don't know what it, you know, I can say this, there's a level of passion that I've never seen, there's a level of hatred that I've never seen, and that's probably a bad combination.
tucker carlson
Donald Trump, thank you.
donald j trump
Thank you very much.
tucker carlson
Very much.
donald j trump
Thank you.
tucker carlson
That is a bad combination, by the way.
donald j trump
Bad combination.
nicolle wallace
Hi there, everyone.
It's 4 o'clock in New York.
There is a lot happening this hour.
History unfolding, a flood of new developments to tell you about.
Just a few minutes ago, Donald Trump, the disgraced ex-president, the frontrunner for the Republican nominee for president, four times indicted, departed his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
He's on route to Fulton County, Georgia via Newark Airport, we believe.
He will surrender himself for processing.
at an overcrowded jail with a reputation for violence and neglect.
A jail that is accustomed to holding defendants facing charges up to and including violent crimes where stabbings are frequent. Actually three people have lost their lives over the last month. That jail is where the disgrace...
unidentified
You see where the laugh is?
steve bannon
Don Junior joins me.
Don Junior, Tucker Carlson has to ask your father about the potential for assassination and civil war.
Your father refers to them as savage animals.
They're coming after him.
You see Nicole Wiles all afternoon, they're just laughing and cackling on MSNBC.
Please put the last 24 hours in perspective, sir.
donald trump-jr
Well, listen, it's been wild.
We were up at the debate yesterday, Kimberly and I. We were blocked by Fox News from going in the spin room.
I mean, it's an RNC debate.
They're televising it, but it's an RNC debate.
And I'd say, arguably, the two primary surrogates for the President of the United States, and the man that's leading by 60 points, ...are banned from the spin room because we all saw and have been watching the two years of fluffing that they've been doing for Ron DeSantis because Rupert Murdoch, you know, Paul Ryan and the Rhinos, you know, they want to have a puppet in the White House.
They'll do whatever they can to place them in there.
So when their puppet and their chosen puppet fails miserably on the debate stage, when he waffles, when the things that he says sound so robotic and pre-programmed, When the things that actually got applause were basically directly plagiarized from the Trump campaign and from the Trump website, I mean, how many times did Ron DeSantis say, a nation in decline?
By the way, for the first time ever, right out of the Trump speech guide, right off the Trump website.
You know, it's sort of amazing.
So the guy that has actually had a campaign, Steve, in decline for the last six months, and basically since it stopped being a campaign by outside influencers clipping one second of Ron DeSantis talking, and it actually had to be that guy on a stage.
Or with people or behind the bar, you know, to get to know Ron DeSantis is to not like them.
And that's the explanation for those polls.
So Fox panicking.
They don't want someone who will actually, you know, add to the injury that Ron DeSantis did to himself last night.
So we got in.
I'm pretty well known in Republican circles.
So basically walk through the first two tiers of security.
You know, keep going.
I'm not going to get stopped.
A couple people tried and then finally I got in just to the outside of the room.
And luckily, one or two reporters were sort of standing there.
I guess they were bored with what was going on in the spin room.
And based on what we saw last night, I understand.
They started asking me questions.
So I wasn't moving or going anywhere.
Got a crowd of 30 people around me and right there in front of those 30 people.
So Fox can't fake it.
That guy told them, and I asked him specifically to say it, can I go further?
No, you cannot.
I've been instructed by Fox executives to not let you go any further.
They're functioning, honestly, Steve Blake, the Fulton County DA, who wants to silence my father, as I said in the clip that you played.
Uh, who wants to silence the political opposition, who wants to threaten, uh, anyone else around that to be silenced so as not to be added onto the, uh, never-ending indictments.
And, you know, this same press, uh, that was there happy to hear me speak, uh, had been strangely silent about the attack on democracy.
I know that was a big talking point for them, uh, during the Trump administration, but when they're now doing in the United States what Vladimir Putin does to his political enemies, uh, the outrage that used to happen, uh, It's suddenly gone, so it's really a sad time for America.
steve bannon
Don Jr., I know you gotta go at the bottom of the hour.
We're gonna hold Kimberly, but we got two minutes.
I just gotta ask you, given everything your father's done for the country, particularly economically, why do the Murdochs hate him?
donald trump-jr
Well, because they can't control him, Steve.
You know, they can control a Ron DeSantis, just like last night when you... Hey, would you pardon Trump after the weaponization and the miscarriage of justice that's taking place?
I gotta look around... How do I answer?
In fact, the only guy with any guts on that stage raised his hand immediately because he understands what's going on.
You know, run!
Again, once you see him in long form, anyone can clip a 10-second thing and make it go viral, him dunking on some idiot local reporter.
Uh, but when you see him in long form, when you see him behind a bar, I too will have a beer because that's what humans do, uh, Steve.
you realize it's all a lie, it's all a creation.
And so whether it's the billionaire donor class, they can be America first light, but not if it costs our widget an extra cent.
We gotta still please China.
We gotta totally capitulate to China.
Those guys want that.
These donors don't often believe in the cause.
They believe in control.
They believe in that power that served them very well.
That's probably helped them make a lot of those billions.
And so, Fox News is no different.
They love having that power and they want someone that they control.
You know, Ron DeSantis blew that.
It's not even worth talking about him after that performance.
So, you know, they'll find someone else.
And you already see the stories and hear the headlines about, well, this billionaire is abandoning Ron DeSantis to give his millions to another puppet candidate.
Trump scares them, Steve.
He's the only one that can take on that system.
He's the only one with the guts.
Now he has the knowledge and the know-how that knows who the people that are actually snakes and the people that are actually MAGA or America First.
And that scares them more than anything.
That's why, you know, both sides are going after him now.
So I think it was important for people to see that.
I think it was really important for people to see, you know, Ron DeSantis on the stage with, you know, frankly, many other Sort of lightweight contenders as far as I'm concerned.
unidentified
Yeah.
donald trump-jr
Still get manhandled and totally underperformed.
So, you know, I think Trump won last night by a lot.
steve bannon
Big time.
It's smart not to go to the Dealey Plaza set up by Murdoch.
Okay, short break.
Don Jr's gonna leave us.
Kimberly's gonna be there.
We're gonna get Don Jr's social media up in a second.
Back in the worm.
unidentified
Here's your host, Stephen K Vance.

Okay, tomorrow morning we are going to start the show from Jackson Hole where the head of the Federal Reserve is going to give his summer address after the central bankers have all met.
One thing you didn't have to worry about when Donald John Trump was President of the United States is something called BRICS.
But you do now, particularly that the Iran, the mullahs in Iran, the House Assad, MBZ and UAE all joined them last night.
So now they control over 50% of the world's oil production and they have said straight out.
That they're going to use everything possible to do this concept called de-dollarization, including stop using the petrodollar for oil trades out of the Middle East, leading to another currency.
We've outlined this with Birchgold.
Go to birchgold.com slash Ben at the end of the dollar empire.
It's all free.
You can get the pricey to of the path to Durban.
Because the last 48 hours has been quite historical, and the history is going to continue tonight in Fulton County, Georgia.
Kimberly Guilfoyle, you were there last night.
And Kimberly, having known you for a couple of three years, I can say unreservedly, you're pretty tough.
You can't back Kimberly Guilfoyle off.
So tell me, I want to put it in perspective.
How maniacally focused the Murdochs are on making sure Donald Trump's not the President of the United States and I want to connect that with some of those great questions of Tucker and then the cackling of MSNBC and what they're all waiting for that's going to happen at 730 tonight, ma'am.
unidentified
Yeah, it's a sickness what we're seeing and a mental illness.
But I want to tell you something.
You could smell the fear in the room there.
It was unbelievable.
And, you know, at first they told us maybe we weren't going to be able to attend.
Well, I'm like, newsflash for you.
You cannot legally bar us because we went there as members of the media, as creators on Rumba with our own shows.
We sat with our Rumble team with our CEO Chris Pavlosky.
We anchored from there and broadcast for hours with a bunch of members of Congress like Byron Donalds and Matt Gaetz and MTG and Carrie Lake was there as well.
Um, Russell Fry, like all of it.
So it was very good.
We did great programming.
We went into the debate.
Let me tell you something.
There were so many people there that supported Trump.
They were super happy to see us.
Um, we were the ones doing all the selfies, taking all the pictures with everybody.
We're very gracious and representing.
Uh, and then, you know, it went for afterwards where Don was invited to on Fox.
They said, Hey guys, come into the spin room, all of the above.
We go there and they gave Jason mill and the rest of them the same runaround.
Well, no, you can't go through this door.
Oh, you got to go over here and go through there like trying to lead us to the janitor's closet.
Yeah, right.
Well, you know me, you know Don Jr.
OK, we're cut from the same cloth.
There was no way that we weren't going to go in there, that we aren't going to represent.
We weren't going to stand for the American people and for President Trump.
He is the front runner.
Okay?
He is the one that 62% of Republicans say, I will cast my vote for him.
He should be the nominee and indeed he will be.
But nevertheless, Fox with the banner, Fox News, democracy in action.
There was no democracy there.
There was just one-sided surrogates just from Ron DeSantis that they tried to prop up, but he was an empty suit, literally.
The suit didn't even fit, so maybe he should get some of his consultant money back and buy a suit and not look absolutely ridiculous.
It was just embarrassing.
He is my governor, so I thought perhaps he was going to try to step up and do something good, but he was a big loser last night, and you know, Vivek Ramaswamy actually stood up, and he was the most supportive of President Trump.
President Trump's achievements and someone who has actually lived the America first dream and really loves this country.
And that was really great and refreshing to see.
The rest of them were cheap imitations in suits and one in a dress.
They all had red ties on trying to emulate Donald Trump.
You had Mike Pence.
He kept saying Trump Pence and like their accomplishments.
Okay, so now you want to try to take credit for it.
They weren't his accomplishments.
They are Donald Trump.
Because there are no Trump policies without Trump.
That's why it's imperative that he gets in in 2024, and he will.
Because they're trying to break him, but it is not possible.
You know that.
You know the man very well, like I do.
He's my friend for 18 years.
So Don and I didn't back down last night.
We went in.
I had one security lady trying to chase me.
That didn't work out well for her, because a nice big sheriff saw me.
Ms.
Guilfoyle, Ms.
Guilfoyle, I'm your biggest fan.
Thank you for what you do to the country.
I said, thank you for your service.
Or this woman's chasing me and harassing me.
So he ended up detaining her.
So I had the last laugh.
What else is new?
Then we went in there and Don Jr.
held a masterclass in what you do.
It was a press gaggle and they were just literally hanging on his every word.
And he just slayed it.
You've seen it.
It went viral.
We weren't leaving.
We were peaceful, but we're going to exercise.
Our rights, First Amendment rights, as Americans, born free Americans in this country.
And Fox News, the Murdoch's, all that, they're not going to stop us.
And by the way, bad idea if you think that that is going to encourage the president to come to one of your next, like, sham debates, like these sham indictments.
It's just completely backfiring.
And I said to myself, I used to work at this place and admired it.
You know, this would be, it's unbelievable.
Roger Ailes would have never allowed any of that to happen.
It's just, it's a sad state of what's going on.
And I thought to myself, we might actually have gotten better treatment by CNN or MSNBC.
Because let me tell you something, all the other press outlets wanted to hear from us and to talk to us.
So how is this okay?
And then you saw they had these like ridiculous like mug shots, essentially, of, you know, Justin Caperol and Jason Miller and Danny from comms.
To not allow them in, like they were literally members of Al-Qaeda or ISIS or, you know, Al-Shabaab.
They literally had the pictures all on the outside.
Don't let these people in.
I mean, how small and petty and fearful.
It reeked of fear and pathetic because they won't let us in to come and talk and represent two of the top circuits for the president to actually come in and debate the issues in the marketplace of ideas.
I don't know.
You tell me, Steve.
steve bannon
He, President Trump is going to, he won in 16, the greatest company behind in American political history.
He won again in 20, was stolen from him.
That's quite obvious.
He's going to win again in 24.
I kind of miss the logic of the Murdochs.
What are they trying to achieve, Kimberly Guilfoyle?
unidentified
I don't know, but this is the problem.
Like, who's really running the shop there?
You know, is it the boys?
Is it Laughlin?
Rupert's still involved.
The other Fox executives?
It's just like the head doesn't connect with the body.
It's just a complete, like, Frankenstein freak show because it's not smart.
It's not good business.
If I were the shareholders of Fox News and News Corp, I'd be saying, what is going on over there?
It's just an embarrassment because there was nothing fair and balanced about it.
It was one-sided.
And they tried to prop this guy up.
He didn't do a good job.
The whole thing was just absolutely pathetic.
And as you know, you know, Trump broke all records, historic number of viewers tuning in to his counter-programming, you know, with Tucker Carlson.
So you know, I would do it all over again.
But the way that they behaved, the shame is on them.
The shame is on them.
And we're never going to back down.
We stand up just like the president does, because we feel honored from all the Americans that we've met traveling in every single state, campaigning and reaching out at these events.
We will stand and fight for them so they know and have the strength to show up.
And I think there's going to be a huge reckoning here.
They are really actually sowing the seeds of civil unrest.
In this country with this persecution of an innocent man for crimes that do not exist that aren't factually or legally accurate or sufficient.
And I'm telling you something they're also trying to keep him off the ballot in some blue states and that is going to be a huge mistake as you know it.
steve bannon
I want to go back.
The Fox machine getting back at Nikki Haley, she probably had the most anti-America First, most anti-MAGA policies last night.
Fox and Friends on the white couch, she was the winner.
New York Post, she's the winner.
Wall Street Journal, she's the winner.
All throughout the day on Fox, she's the winner.
What say you, ma'am?
unidentified
I was in the room.
We were very close to the stage.
No, she was not.
She had a couple little pot shots here and there.
But I was saying to myself, wow, how disloyal, how dishonest that she was and about President Trump.
And I was not surprised because I've had this opinion.
I do not trust her. I do not respect her. And what she did on there was just all self-serving lip speak. So now because they know that, Oh, DeSantis, this guy's it's done. It's over.
Like he's not even, we're talking about it anymore because that did not work out for him. And that was his big moment and he missed it. And now they're going to try and shift it over for, you know, the Rhino machine and the globalists.
And that's what this is. Um, you know, it's just like a, a neocon Lollapalooza over there. And these people want to throw us into world war three. They are sympathizers to Ukraine.
steve bannon
She made that very clear last night and we care about America first about the American dream and taking care of our good folks here at home. Kimberly, the second debates at the Reagan RNC has given it to Fox Business that has, as you know, spending many years at Fox, has an audience of about 50 people.
Why did they give it to Fox Business?
Your show has far more.
And should the president attend the second debate?
unidentified
No, why not?
Look what happened last night.
It'd just be a poor decision.
They need him.
He doesn't need them.
And the numbers last night proved it yet again.
And there was no talent up on the stage again, except for Vivek Ramaswamy.
And I do personally like, you know, Tim Scott.
But other than that, that is, there was nobody there that was any kind of like standard where you're like this person.
Yup.
Except for Donald Trump.
It just made you hunger for them because they were all auditioning and trying to pretend that they're like him in some way.
Except for perhaps Nikki Haley.
But that's not what the American people want.
None of those people are getting any numbers in the polling.
You know that, right?
I mean, it's just like complete failure, like, you know, last in the class, back in the room, nothing to show there, nothing of any interest, and certainly no one there that, you know, Putin or Kim Jong-un or President Xi or anybody is going to be even remotely worried about, let's be honest about that.
Only one.
steve bannon
Do you think that Ron DeSantis needed to own the moment last night?
Do you think he failed to do that?
unidentified
I mean, it was embarrassing.
I, you know, and like I said, he's my governor.
I know him and I know his wife.
And I just thought, well, okay, let's see what he can come up with.
Right.
Cause all these consultants, I mean, he should like ask for his money back because that was a joke.
And I'll tell you something.
It was actually very sad to see because it was like, he was almost just like looking right through you.
There was no connection.
There was no energy or affect or emotion.
It was just so rehearsed and so just deadpan.
There was nothing that like jumped out at you as like an authentic, genuine, robust moment where you felt like he was connecting with the American people.
And you could contrast that, the juxtaposition was then Vivek Brahmaswamy, who was warm and interesting and far more intelligent than anyone else on that stage, by far.
My brother was texting me during it going, Oh my God, this isn't even a fair competition.
He's so much smarter than all the rest of these people.
And again, not a career politician, an outsider like Donald Trump.
But again, We need to get this country, who is in crisis, back on track ASAP.
Not a dress rehearsal.
There's only one man for the job, and that's Donald John Trump, and you know that, too.
steve bannon
Kimberly, I want to hold you through the break if you can, but I've got to ask you a question.
You mentioned earlier about what's happening today.
They want to see civil unrest.
Give me a minute on that before we go to break and we'll keep you.
What do you mean by that?
They want to see civil unrest?
unidentified
Well, they want to see—so they can say, look at these Republicans and these conservatives and these, you know, Trump supporters.
They're all, you know, crazy people that are causing insurrection.
And that's why they keep playing that narrative that they actually perpetrated and created and directed.
About January 6th and the misrepresentations and they want to say, OK, this is what's going to happen.
And they're like pushing and poking the cage and poking the cage.
And you notice with President Trump in his interview with Tucker Carlson, he talked about that he's never seen, you know, in his lifetime, this combination of tremendous passion and love for the country, but also hatred about what they're doing to it.
And that is, as we know, historically a very serious and potentially deadly combination.
steve bannon
Kimberly, if you could just hang on for a second.
We'd appreciate it.
I just want to take you through a break.
I've got a couple more questions about what's going on down.
We're the pregame for President Trump turning himself in in Fulton County, Georgia.
That will take place at 7.30.
Real America's Voice is going to cover it wall-to-wall live.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
We'll be back with Kimberly Guilfoyle, an advisor to the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, back in a moment.
unidentified
Bring it on and I will fight to the end.
Just watch and see.
It's all started.
Everything's begun and you are over because 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.
Here's your host, Stephen K.
steve bannon
Okay, we're going to start tomorrow's show in Jackson Hole.
We're going to be watching the Federal Reserve Chairman talk about the state of the economy and our capital markets, which will drive everything, interest rates, inflation, all of it.
Now that one thing he'll talk about is de-dollarization, because now that the BRICS have thrown down hard about destroying the U.S.
dollar, it should be at the front of everybody's mind.
Want to understand it, learn about it, go to birchgold.com.
The End of the Dollar Empire.
It's a series we started, what, a year and a half, two years ago?
We have a Pricey.
On what happened in Durban.
Make sure you get it.
Make sure you understand this.
That's what's so important.
You must understand it.
We're going to immerse you in information birchgold.com slash band and also while you're there talk to Philip Patrick and team and find out why all the central banks in the world except for the Federal Reserve have been buying gold in record numbers in 2022 in 2023.
Tell me what you think about the response.
Kimberly Guilfoyle, these are very trying times.
You saw last night, Tucker, and this thing broke the internet, Tucker asked these serious questions about assassination, about threats of President Trump, about civil war.
That's what people wanted to listen to, was serious people talking about serious topics, not what the Keebler Elves were doing on that stage in Milwaukee.
The whole left is waiting for this mugshot.
Tucker and Trump melted the internet last night.
Will this mugshot melt the internet in our favor, ma'am?
unidentified
Yeah, I mean, look, it's going to be another, you know, misstep on their part.
I actually think it benefits President Trump.
I know there were still some negotiations, you know, behind the scenes, but I said they're turning into a folk hero, but he's a folk hero who actually has a strong record of facts and success and achievement.
behind him. No one else on that stage can even, you know, touch Trump, not even remotely.
And I'll tell you, the only other person that had the ability and the skill set to get out there and answer the questions and show some fire and passion and love for the American people was Don Jr. last night in that room when he lit up that spin room. And it was unbelievable because these people are scared to death of us. We had the best surrogates there, people like Carrie Lake and Matt Gaetz and MTG and Byron Donalds. And it was just clear. I mean, we have them so beat, dead to rights. And that's why they're trying to stop us.
That's why they're trying to destroy this country. And And put President Trump in jail, but it's not going to work.
He is always going to be the nominee, and then he will run in the general election against whatever pathetic person they put up on the left, because this country has had it.
And I'm hearing it from Democrats as well, independents, libertarians, all across the board.
There is a thirst for American exceptionalism, American greatness, and putting America first.
That's what's going to happen in this country.
The reckoning is coming.
It's 2024.
So today is just another day that they're after Trump because they can't stop him.
steve bannon
Kimberly said it best.
You can smell the fear.
Kimberly, how do people get to your podcast?
How do they get to Don Jr.' 's social media, the news sites you guys have going, your social media, all of it?
Where do people go?
unidentified
All right, well, you go to Rumble and you download the Rumble app, and you can follow my show, Kimberly Guilfoyle and Donald Trump Jr., who's coming up live at 6 p.m.
on Rumble, and he's gonna have a wild one.
It's gonna be the wild, wild west.
It's gonna be the listeners and the viewers with Donald Trump.
He's gonna answer all the questions.
He's super fired up, and he was like Braveheart in the spin room last night, and the emperor of Fox News has no clothes.
steve bannon
Kimberly Guilfoyle, always honored to have you on here, ma'am.
A true fighter.
Thank you so much.
unidentified
Thank you.
God bless.
steve bannon
A patriot and a hero, Kimberly Guilfoyle.
This is what's going to take, not backing down.
You saw from the cold open what it's going to be like with Nicole Wallace, you know, cackling and giggling and laughing.
They think this is their big moment.
But Kimberly Guilfoyle is right.
Donald Trump is now not just the leader of MAGA and the deplorables and the former president of the United States, going to be the president of the United States again and the leader of this movement.
He's becoming a hero to all the American people because they get what the game is here.
This is to make sure they use every part of the state apparatus.
When I say state, I mean the government, the federal government and state governments to thwart President Trump's return to the White House, and I think Don Jr.
said it best, because they can't control him.
The billionaires can't control him.
The deep state can't control him.
The administrative state can't control him.
Okay, we're going to be back at Don Jr.
Go to Rumble if you want to see that.
It'll be pretty wild.
We're going to continue on at 6.
We've got a lot going on.
We're going to be back in Atlanta.
Caroline Wren's going to be with us.
We got other people we're going to talk to.
We're going to get you fully up to speed.
We're getting the pregame.
So make sure that you stick with us.
Also want to make sure everybody on Jace Medical, the Chinese Communist Party has thrown down hard at BRICS against us.
Now bring in UAE and Saudi Arabia.
They're going to use every piece of strategic leverage they possibly can get.
Make sure you go to Jace Medical right now.
Do not allow the CCP that controls all the generic manufacturing of generic drugs and the active pharmaceutical ingredients that you could never get your medicines, can never get the things that you need.
Go to Jace Medical right now.
Immerse yourself in information.
Don't leave yourself exposed to this.
JaceMedical.com.
The great guys at Jace.
Also, Dr. Rowland was in Maui and provided aerial support in the first couple of days of rescue there.
He can also tell you, hey, people are overwhelmed there.
It's now an emergency medical supply.
Make sure you go to Jace Medical and just learn all about it, how you can get up to speed on everything.
OK, we're going to continue in the six o'clock hour.
Folks, these are trying times, but that is what this country has been made of.
That's what patriots have done throughout the history of this country.
It is those times that have made us great, and our greatness, we're called to greatness again.
Like I said, only the third time in American history has an individual's fate been inextricably linked with the destiny of this country.
You had General Washington and the Revolution, then the founding of the nation, the drafting and agreement of the Constitution, and then the standing up of our government for the first time.
General Washington, then President Washington, you had Abraham Lincoln in the Civil War, and now Donald J. Trump in this fourth turning.
Because whatever comes out on the other side will either be the republic that was bequeathed to us that we will hand down to future generations, or something that is radically, radically different.
And you can see it every day.
Okay, we're going to continue the pregame.
At 730, this is supposed to take place, and we're going to give you a lot of details about that, including all this, the mocking they're doing right now of President Trump, the mocking they're doing of his team.
So make sure that you stick around.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
We're going to be back for the second hour of The War Room.
Stick with us.
We've got Naomi Wolf.
We have Caroline Wren.
We also may have a couple, three tricks up our sleeves.
So stick around.
Look forward to it.
