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?
unidentified
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. Bannon.
ali velshi
Thanks for joining us.
Sunday, some important parts of the government will shut down entirely, and essential parts of the government will be carried on by millions of federal employees and military personnel without pay.
The shutdown will happen because a fully Republican-controlled House has failed in its constitutional responsibility to fund the government.
But this isn't a debate between Republicans and Democrats.
It's a fight between Donald Trump and everyone.
Donald Trump pushed this shutdown because if you thought for a second that the extremist Republicans who are voting down their own speaker's bills are doing so on the basis of some strong moral belief or ideological position, you'd be wrong.
Donald Trump, who by the way oversaw the longest government shutdown in U.S.
history, is once again openly rooting for the government of the United States to shut down.
And 21 Republicans, who care more about not getting primaried than about serving the American people, are doing his bidding.
This week, Donald Trump posted on his social media site, quote, unless you get everything, shut it down.
The New York Times reports, quote, a person close to Mr. Trump acknowledged that his support for a shutdown was providing encouragement to McCarthy's adversaries.
Representative Matt Gaetz of Florida, a leading supporter of a shutdown, said in an interview that one of Mr. Trump's posts on social media endorsing a shutdown May have had an influence on some members of Congress.
Quote, I think there might have been a few people on the fence who are persuaded by that statement.
End quote.
Mr. Gates continued, I view that as consequential.
There are ways in which Kevin McCarthy can make up for his, the two dozen or so, whatever the number is, in his ranks.
Who will not apparently do anything.
They will not compromise on anything by talking to Hakeem Jeffries and getting Democratic support.
I've spoken to members of Congress, Democratic members of Congress over the last few weeks and Republican members of Congress who have said that is probably a good outcome for the country.
As you said, millions of people will continue to get paid for their work if that happens.
Kevin McCarthy will probably be out of a job if he tries that.
unidentified
But who wants a job where you're beholden to these chaos agents?
And again, frankly, if you really want to get in the weeds, and I know your viewers, you know, they know the weeds.
They know these issues.
Kevin McCarthy could put this forward as he did when we paid America's bills and lifted the debt ceiling.
Democrats delivered the votes for that.
He could put this bill forward, keep government open, And these chaos agents, they don't have a plan B. They just want to see everything burn.
He would be a more confident, stronger speaker if he did that, because they would realize there is no plan B. But because he lives in fear, because he sees shadows every single day, and because he sees his own job as more important than anyone else's, we are going to suffer through this shutdown.
It took 15 ballots and as the Washington Post reported yesterday, there are a faction of far-right members who are looking to the House Majority Whip, Congressman Emmer of Minnesota, to be somebody, Basil, who they would like to put up as a potential speaker.
There have been three total stories about potential plots against Kevin McCarthy.
Could we be not only looking at a government shutdown next week, but also potentially a vote on a new speaker?
Well, I think there are a lot of folks that want to see that happen.
McCarthy is a king with the sword of Damocles hanging over his head.
It's a constant target on his back, but that's the speakership that he wanted.
That's the speakership that he ascended to by all those deals that he cut in those 15 votes.
But I do think that cooler heads might eventually prevail.
You've got the center-right American Enterprise Institute scholar saying that this is the Seinfeld shutdown.
It's a shutdown about nothing.
You've got Congressmember Michael Ollis, Susan said earlier, he made the comment that his colleagues were stuck on stupid.
And this is where I think the strategy aspect of this fails the Republicans, in my view.
Because you have someone like Congressmember Lawler, who represents a suburban New York City district.
He's in a flippable seat.
There are three to four of them in New York alone that Democrats are looking at to try to reclaim from Republicans who won last year. So at minimum, why are you engaged in these exercises that jeopardizes vulnerable members of your own conference?
steve bannon
It's Saturday at midnight.
We begin to break the fever, of course, over at Punchbowl.
Brezhnev had just tweeted out this new GOP majority whip telling House Republicans there is no path For a CR, no 14-day, no 30-day, no 45-day.
There are six hard no's on any CR.
Matt Gaetz, we'll get to Gaetz in a second.
Incredible, intense, intense firefight all morning, all night last night about what's going to happen today.
The Senate's over there, still hasn't passed anything.
One thing I can tell you that's an amazing and monumental development.
Ukraine is so toxic that they're telling Mitch McConnell that any attachment of Mitch to CR at all will be dead on arrival.
Think about it.
We had the majority of the majority vote against any Ukraine funding at all.
Not just the new 24 billion dollars, but even the 300 million.
Now we lost that because all the Democrats are all in, you know, they don't care how much they bury this country in debt.
They're all in to send $80 billion this year to Ukraine.
And of course, they wanted $300 million in training in the defense budget.
But the $6 billion supplemental... Remember, first it was going to be $24 billion.
Now, even on the CR, they can't get any traction of that at all.
People are telling me from Congress and Senate, that's dead on arrival.
A lot going on today.
A very testy shouting last night at four o'clock in the afternoon.
They were in each other's face.
It started again this morning at 930.
The Patriots are dug in and said, hey, listen, why are we not back at work?
Why are we not going through these appropriations bills?
We've got a lot of work to do.
We've already funded or we've sent over our version of funding the government.
I think 55 to 65 percent of the government in these big bills has been funded The Senate, remember, and you're talking about everything's the MAGA extremists, the ultra MAGA extremists.
You saw Ali Velshi right there blaming it on President Trump.
The Trump movement, right?
What do they call it?
The Confederate wing of the Republican Party, the new Confederate Army.
That's what they're trying to position that in people's minds, right?
Right now you're seeing the people standing on principle about this nation is in a crisis.
You can see it right here.
There is a crisis and it is how you have this leviathan that's out of control and fed off of your money.
And quite frankly, money we're borrowing from China, money we're just putting the bird making debt slaves out of everybody under 40 years old.
You don't think we're making debt slaves out of everybody 40 years old?
Think about all, every, every time Mike Pence, Judas Pence, and Chris Christie talk about entitlement reform, they all talk, well everybody under 40, everybody over 40, no problem, everybody under 40.
If you're under 40 and you're voting for these people, you deserve everything you get.
Because what you're getting is you're a Russian serf.
That's what this fight's about.
And Matt Gaetz, he put out a great tweet.
He said, let's get back to work.
No CR.
Break the fever.
Let's work through the weekend.
Let's get these appropriations.
Have the Senate pass something.
Let's get into it.
That's what they don't want.
They want to roll everything back up into one thing and then have omnibus.
They want to go back to having the cartel control.
Mike Lindell, by the way, Eli Cranin, these folks are dug in more than they've ever been dug in because they've seen all the games that are being played right now.
We've got Mike Lindell.
Mike, thank you for joining us.
Can you just give us a quick update as we're having this fight in the nation's capital on the bankruptcy of the United States of America?
We want to make sure that in this process, the evil ones don't drag down, the ones that have gotten us into this position, don't drag down my pillow while we're at it.
Can you give us an update?
mike lindell
Yeah.
It's been a new attack, Steve.
You know, we had American Express go after us and reduce our credit to virtually nothing.
Now we have audits.
They're going after my employees that were during the China virus.
You know, you had all these at-home moms and stuff, everybody out there taking calls at our call center on their contract labor across the country.
Now they're doing employee audits.
They're trying to take away their jobs that you all call in your orders on.
And it started in California, now there's three other states that are coming at MyPillow.
And Steve, it's disgusting.
This just was breaking news yesterday.
But the War Room, you guys have been great support.
And we put everything on special that you go to the War Room Square on MyPillow.com.
Go there and we've got the MyPillow 2.0 on sale for $39.99, the queen size, king size $5 more.
We put the sheets on special.
The queen size, king size, $5 more.
We put the sheets on special.
We've got a 39.98 for our slippers.
The original, my slippers.
We, Steve, we have over 200 products.
We put them all on sale.
I'm tired of this cancellation.
Everybody attacking my pillow.
But these employees now really need everybody's support.
And you've been responding, everybody.
There we go.
Up to 80% off.
We have a special closeout to make room in our manufacturing.
All these products, you guys can get them like your sleepwear.
You get all these things that for the bathroom, for the bedroom.
We've got quilts, comforters, beds, MyPillow 2.0 bed toppers.
Turn that bed into the best bed ever.
Get yourself an early Christmas present.
And, but they make the best gifts ever.
And it's, but I'm just, they just keep attacking.
And now they're going after our employees.
They made it very personal.
And if they, if they take away their ability to work, you know, work from home and, and, you know, take, they work on commission, everybody.
And, and this is something that hasn't happened in 15 years.
And all of a sudden there's five IRS audits against MyPillow in three different years.
So this is all Stephen attack because we're trying to secure our elections.
And ever since the event in August, everybody, this has been one attack after another.
And so what do we do?
We turn lemons into lemonade and put everything on sale for all of you out there.
I'm telling you that the towels, we still have a lot of the six-piece towel sets in all the colors left at $39.98.
And so you're cutting out the middleman and it's direct to you, the consumer.
It helps all of us.
Any money that comes through to me, You know what I do with it?
I spend it to help save our country every dime.
I'm sticking in out there to this attacks on our election platforms and all these lawsuits.
Just disgusting.
steve bannon
Hang on.
I know you've got to get going.
They're grinding at my pillow today.
I want to make sure we connect some dots here.
The Administrative State and the Deep State, I keep telling you folks, they are not just going to sit there.
You should see the fight that's going on in this city right now.
The knives are out.
Why the knives are out?
This is how you deconstruct the Administrative State.
You must cut them off from money.
There is no other way to do it.
You can't wish it away.
You can't have seminars away.
You can't quote me the Constitution.
All these people quoting the Constitution, they've shredded the Constitution.
We're in a post-Constitution, almost dictatorship.
The administrative state runs the deal.
They will go after anybody.
Do you think they care about going after MyPillow's employees?
Right?
If you go down the lowest ring of the ladder, they want to destroy them.
On Monday, in a court in New York, The trial starts to liquidate the Trump Organization.
Everything Donald Trump's ever worked for, his family's ever worked for, to liquidate it.
To liquidate it.
They're essentially trying to liquidate my pillow.
It's the same fight, it's just a different front.
Whether it's the impeachment of Ken Paxton in Texas, The forced liquidation, they're trying to liquidate my pillow and shut it down in Minnesota.
Or in a state court in New York on Monday.
They are playing, they have withdrawn the sword and thrown away the scabbard.
And we have to do the same.
unidentified
We have to break the fever tonight.
steve bannon
There's no compromise here.
It's one way or the other.
A leviathan that's out to destroy you are liberty and freedom on the other side.
Short break, back in a moment.
unidentified
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bass.
steve bannon
Since the mid-1990s, I think it was 1996, 97, we haven't gone through this process.
We had Dave Bright in here yesterday.
We've never gone through this process of the appropriations bills.
You can actually see where people stand on votes and votes on amendments for these bills and where they want to cut and where they want to roll over.
The Union Party and the globalists don't want that.
That's why it's always been done in this way to kind of never get them done, do some CR, and then at the end of the year say, hey, we ran out of time, we have to have omnibus.
That's how the cartel keeps control of the money.
That's when Gates says break the fever, it's to break the fever.
And this unaccountable apparatus is more than a bureaucracy.
These are more than bureaucrats.
This is an administrative state that has a deep state element to it.
That element is choking down and has choked down the liberty and freedom of citizens in this country.
You are not a priority.
The 10 million illegal aliens coming through the country are the priority.
The eastern-speaking, the Russian-speaking eastern border of Ukraine is a vital national security interest to that apparatus.
If you look at CISA, the spying on you and the shutting down of conservative sites and conservative social media influencers, that's a priority.
It's everything opposite of what this republic was built upon.
And that's our point.
There is no compromise in this.
None.
They're gonna win or we're gonna win.
And right now what they hate, what they hate is that you actually have leverage.
And they hate it.
And they're gonna, I keep telling you, you think it's bad now?
You ain't seen nothing yet.
And if you think you're gonna take this apart, I mean really take it apart.
When President Trump returns in January 2025 without every day being like Stalingrad, you are sadly mistaken.
They're not going to give up control and power of the most powerful nation in the history of the earth.
Not going to do that.
Unless we continue to confront and take their power from them.
And we're going to get to the Federal Reserve, get to all that and people, you know, and some people out there saying, well, you got to do this.
Stop the wishful thinking.
We're back in reality land.
We got what we got.
You got to fight with what you got.
Look at the history of warfare.
You don't have to start with overwhelming forces.
You can start quite small.
And victory begets victory.
And then you build.
And this movement, this is an inflection point.
Today.
Tomorrow.
To break the fever.
If you want to see the manifestation of it, they were prepared to throw Ken Paxton out of being AG in Texas.
They are right now working.
I'm sure they've set up a federal grand jury to indict him for crimes because we beat him in the impeachment process.
They've thrown Colton Moore down in Georgia out of the out of the Senate caucus there, the Republican Senate caucus, because on that flank of the war, we're not actually winning that much.
The possibilities are there and they're great pagers down in Georgia fighting.
Up in Minnesota, they're trying to put Mike Lindell into bankruptcy.
The financial institutions are trying to cut him off.
The government's coming after him with multiple audits.
There's other things going on we can't talk about that are even worse.
And it's not just Lindell.
They're going after the employees that work the phones.
They don't care.
that worked the phones.
They don't care.
They don't care.
On Monday in New York, Donald J. Trump's business empire is on trial.
unidentified
Thank you.
steve bannon
Think about that for a second.
If he had not come back, understanding he won in 2020, and he had to set this right in this republic, or it was over, if Trump had not returned for this fight, it was over.
Even as powerful as this movement is, if the leader of this movement had basically conceded to their stealing the election, the republic was over.
That was a Republic ending moment.
And that is why Donald Trump is a hero, not just for this age, but for all ages of the American Republic, like General Washington, like President Lincoln, and like Donald J. Trump.
And this is why I say, only for the third time in the history of this Republic has the fate of an individual been inextricably linked to the fate of this Republic.
And we're in it now.
And it's going to get so much worse.
And it's getting so much worse because you're putting up wins.
If we were getting crushed, or people had quit, or people, and a lot have, a lot have just sucked their thumb and gone home and said, I can't take it anymore.
I can't do this.
Or they want to chase shiny toys.
Let's go chase some shiny toys for a while.
That fiasco on Thursday, you know what that fiasco was about?
It has nothing to do, Biden, Biden is guilty of taking bribes from the Chinese Communist Party.
Full stop.
He's guilty of high treason to sell us out from the greatest existential threat we've ever had.
Full stop.
Also in Ukraine, I think you'll be able to prove in Ukraine, but Ukraine is a sidebar or terrible and we can prove it.
And he took bribes, all of it.
And it gets to the fact of why they're trying to put 200 billion dollars into Ukraine.
unidentified
But this is it.
steve bannon
This is that moment.
And remember, wherever you are, remember they put the billboards up in all the towns.
If you know anybody, if you know the neighbors of domestic terrorists, that's what they're doing in East Germany.
That's what the Stasi used to do.
Look what's in these bills.
Look what Jen Easterly and CISA, DHS are trying to do.
Look what the FBI is trying to do.
Look what the Justice Department is trying to do.
Look what the IRS is trying to do.
If you don't think they're coming after you, you're dead wrong.
When President Trump says they're coming after me because they're actually coming after you, that's that's correct.
And his hair, look, he's he's an imperfect individual.
Mike Lindell is an imperfect individual.
Steve Stern is going to join us as an imperfect individual.
Stephen K. Bannon is an incredibly imperfect individual.
And that's not what they're coming for.
They're coming for you.
Because the people you see out there, they have these platforms that provide this.
The reason they're coming after Lindell is not simply his fight to get the machines and do everything on voter fraud.
That's a huge aspect.
Don't get me wrong.
And that drives him crazy.
It's also the fact that his company, Do It's Media, has supported conservative media.
Look at every different platform.
You see the MyPillow ad, you see the MyPillow support.
They understand in destroying MyPillow, they get to the heart of a lot of it.
And that's where they're going after him.
Remember the FBI showed up and took his phone.
The FBI was going to arrest him right there.
The FBI on Mike Lindell, one of the greatest patriots in this country today.
And what is his crime?
What's Lindell's crime?
That he stood up for his country?
What is Donald Trump's crime?
Donald Trump's crime is that when they stole the election, he just didn't go away.
He made a decision in January, in February, in March of 2021 that he would not allow this to stand.
He had nothing for himself to gain in that.
This is all because of his ego.
He had nothing to gain from that.
If he had just gone away, none of this would have happened to him.
There wouldn't be, was it, four indictments on 91 charges with 700 years in prison.
And if you don't think they want him to serve all 700 years, you'd be incorrect.
They've gone after his company, one of the great real estate companies in New York City, a city built upon capital markets and real estate.
And they're going to liquidate the company.
You have to understand this.
They're trying to give him a death blow everywhere.
Put him in jail for 700 years and bankrupt him and his family.
Burn it to the ground and salt the earth around it.
The stakes could not be higher in this.
And President Trump will never come out and actually, you know, actually say that and look for support for that.
You saw it in Detroit the other day.
There has not been a more magnificent speech about working class people in this country than Donald J. Trump's speech in Detroit the other day.
And there has not been a more powerful speech about what has happened in the great state of California with the Uniparty of Pelosi and Newsom than the speech in California yesterday.
Trump's not holding back.
Mike Lindell, how can we help the employees that they're coming after now, the IRS employees, how can we help there?
mike lindell
Well, you know what?
You can keep their phones busy, everybody.
And that's 800-544-8939.
It would help them a lot.
They've been sitting worried about their jobs.
The IRS are coming after them to shut them down, saying, oh, you can't work from home anymore.
And this is just supporting my company, everybody.
And Steve's right.
We're getting so many wins out there.
That's why the attacks have went up.
And you know what?
The more they attack, the more we're going to keep fighting and winning.
And you can all help out by supporting my pillow.
And that's why we put this stuff on special.
If you go to the website, you go to mypillow.com, go down to that War Room Square.
We put exclusive specials there.
The MyPillow 2.0 helps us so much because that's what we make.
100% made in my factory in the USA here.
Our beds, we have new beds.
The new technology with our beds that just came out.
Those are 100% made in the USA.
We have our MyPillow 2.0 bed topper.
You've got a bed and you can't afford to buy a new bed?
Get that topper.
You need to be sleeping right.
My products help you get the best sleep ever.
Steve, we're in the biggest fight ever and you know what?
People need to be well rested and they need to get, even though we don't sleep a lot, it needs to be quality.
I've always said that.
And so, and you can help that.
Another thing too, that all this ties to my store.com, everybody, you can go there.
That's like a mini Amazon.
We've got that set up for USA products and those entrepreneurs, the war room has helped them so much using that promo code war room and the war room policy.
I don't know these last three, four weeks, Steve, without you guys, I'll tell you, we're, we're in some bad fights right now with not only the IRS, But the attacks, I was just subpoenaed, another thing we can talk about next week.
They're subpoenaing me for things I wasn't even there.
They want my voice silenced.
They want me to shut up, but I'm not shutting up.
steve bannon
Mike Lindell, honored to have you on here.
Thank you for joining us this morning to kick us off.
Really appreciate it, sir.
mike lindell
Thank you, Steve.
Thanks.
steve bannon
MyPillow.com, promo code WORM.
Go check it out now.
This is a 30-front war.
And we're winning.
If we weren't winning, they wouldn't be coming so hard.
Okay, short commercial break.
We have a lot to get through this morning.
We may have a couple of drop-bys here in the War Room.
You never know what's gonna happen as we get ready to de-finance.
We're not shutting down the government.
You're de-financing the Leviathan.
unidentified
Break the fever in the War Room.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bamm.
steve bannon
Okay.
Remember, this fight is for the direction of the country and the salvation of this republic is because of you.
You've had these folks back.
One, you got them into office.
But then when the incoming started, you had their back.
And that's why you've got these heroes.
Because they know that The MAGA movement has their back.
Matt Rosenthal tweeted, The House has passed four appropriations bills, which include funding of our troops, veterans, and the border.
The Senate hasn't begun consideration of any of them.
Why is the United States Senate more focused on a short-term funding gimmick?
That's what a CR is, a gimmick.
With six billion dollars still for Ukraine, then funding our troops.
Nancy Mace, and remember Nancy Mace in this regard is not a fire breather, but she was one of the 21 that voted against it.
She's been taking a pretty hard stand.
Republicans sent spending bills to the Senate.
Number one, to fund our military.
Number two, to secure our border.
Number three, to help our vets.
Number four, to keep America strong abroad.
And the Senate has picked up and done no work.
You know why?
For the last five days, Mitch McConnell and the collaboration of the Senate has just worked on every different permutation of how to continue what the cartel wants to do.
Because remember, he's the driver of the last omnibus.
They don't want to be outed.
They don't want to be outed.
And they're just working on these short-term... Why is the short-term gimmick so important to them?
Because it gets you past the forcing function of tonight at midnight.
Gets you through that.
And then it just, it's like, it's a gateway drug.
Then it just rolls on.
We can have another one.
The work's almost done.
unidentified
Another one.
steve bannon
Another one.
Oh my gosh, we're up to holidays.
We got to fund next year.
It's an election year.
We have to do it.
Omnibus.
Seven trillion dollars.
All the madness in there.
All the de-woke out.
All the de-weaponize out.
All the defunding out.
All the defanging out.
Remember, we're not crazy.
Just to put it in perspective of how you have been the adults in the room.
You weren't thrilled with the debt deal.
The first one.
The one that was the first year.
But we were prepared to accept it.
To get it done and to kick it into next year.
It drove us crazy, but...
And the spirit of larger goals will do it.
They didn't do that.
They offered up and gave two years right away.
The original Senator McCarthy.
And you never hear Garrett Graves or any of these guys talk about that.
Giving away the nation.
I had Zweikart.
We had Zweikart, Davis Zweikart, Arizona gives this magnificent talk.
It's like war room in the house.
He's up there with the charts and he's got the debt.
He's got the interest payments and he's breaking it down and tax revenues and all.
I mean, it's, it's, it's quite frankly, a mini masterpiece.
The brother voted for the debt deal.
I've had Captain Bannon reach out to his office and say, Hey, bro, I'm, I'm corn fused here.
You got to help me.
How do you give a thing and you're banging on the table and saying, we're in bankruptcy, we're going to be in bankruptcy and the Democrats, how do you vote for the debt deal?
I tell you how you do it.
In the old days, we didn't used to look at those votes.
Now we do.
War room posse's on it and they ain't happy.
If you're going to talk the talk, you got to walk the walk.
This is where we are.
And they're gonna come hard.
This afternoon, everything, you know, you're gonna be called everything.
You're a confederate.
You're this.
You hate the country.
You're trying to tear things down.
You're a domestic terrorist.
You're the ultra-mega-extremist.
You saw Velshi.
It's gonna be now.
Trump did it because Trump put out the truth social.
Trump's in back of this.
Trump's evil.
Trump's bad.
You know.
This is what they do every day.
The drip, drip, drip.
This is this authoritarian.
Tell me who the authoritarians are.
Last time I worked, look, this is this is a messy process, a democratic process.
This is called legislating.
For those in this audience that stayed up to three or four in the morning.
As some of your War Room production team did.
Watching these debates.
If you're interested in actually, and not just talking, right?
I love all these guys that talk about limited government.
I'm for limited government and I'm for, you know, fiscal responsibility.
That's crap.
Shove it.
You're not.
Unless you're in this fight, you're not.
This is how you get to limited government.
Hey, we've taken what, 40, 50, 60, 70 years to get here from the FDR New Deal to the Great Society to the massive military-industrial complex that General Eisenhower warned us about, the national security state.
It took a long time to get here.
And now it's just not sustainable mathematically.
And the math will win here.
You're on the winning side.
Here's how I tell you you're on the winning side.
Because you're on the side of the math, the mathematics.
And that is irrefutable.
Everybody up there is not talking about massive cuts.
CNN said it this week when they did the article.
When you get to the heart of it, this is about massive cuts in federal spending.
And eventually you have to look at the entitlement programs.
You're going to have to later on.
After you show you can do this, until you can show the American people and get their confidence that you're prepared to do this, including the defense budget, Until you show the American people that you can actually do this and deliver the limited government that this country needs, you're not going to be able to get to the entitlements.
Why should you?
People are going to sit there.
You're not trustworthy.
You're just a bunch of con artists.
You're sitting with the lobbyists.
Caroline Wren's got an amazing tweet about Matt Gaetz.
They're saying now, one of the reasons Matt Gaetz, Matt Gaetz doesn't take any PAC money.
He's not beholden to any lobbyists.
None.
It's one of the reasons we won in 16.
We won with with no backing at all from wealthy people and maybe one or two.
One or two who were up for our press from didn't want anything.
They want him to help save the Republic.
So that's where we got Steve Stern.
Steve, we got a lot on the, we haven't been able to get to you in the last week or two with this fight.
You got a ton going on and this is where, this is where it all happens.
This is a grassroots movement.
You're a grassroots activist.
You're the ones that making it happen and trust me, they hate that too.
So Steve, we got a bunch of stuff happening early in the week.
I want to make sure that everybody knows what's going on and also check with Grace and Captain Bennett throughout the day.
We're putting streaming up.
I think we got the house streaming now.
We're going to be jumping in and out all this weekend coming with updates and things are going on.
So make sure that you are on getter and we'll throw it up on rumble too.
So I need everybody kind of on the ramparts, but those are your signals where stuff is going to come up is over there.
Steve Stern, what do we got brother?
steve stern
So we got a big meeting coming up on Monday, but I'd like to just thank Mike Lindell, because two weeks ago he was on our Zoom on Monday for our election security, election integrity, whatever you want to call it.
And he's sharing his 300,000 people with Precinct Strategy.
What does that mean?
It means we have 200,000 members.
We need to get more.
So not only is he doing that, but Moms for America are doing that.
I will be on the show.
They're going to have a tape on October 10th, and we're going to speak to 200,000 of their women and let them know how we can get a woman on every corner, every precinct.
So Moms for America, we want to thank you.
Lindell, we want to thank you.
So this Monday, we've got a great call.
If you want to get on it, get to me and I'll tell you who's going to be on it.
it go to stern 1054 at AOL or stern 1054 gmail send me an email.
I will get you on it.
If you didn't get your link from when you were on last time, sending me another email, but put your phone number down there because I'll probably call you.
So we're going to have Cleta Mitchell as our head person.
We're going to have Aubrey Campbell, who's part of Moms of America.
She's going to tell you a little bit of stuff.
We're going to have Melanie Clark, Kathy Harms.
And Heather Honey is going to give you something you want to hear.
I'm not going to tell you about it because I want you to come and see it.
So we have a lot going on with precinct strategy.
Again, let me put this up because a lot of people don't get to see it.
But I will be speaking at Clay Clark here on October the 14th at 415, talking about precinct strategy, election integrity.
He's giving us a booth so we can sign up Republicans because we changed our philosophy on what we're doing.
Next time I come on, I know we don't have a lot of time here.
Next time I come on, we will talk about it.
But we will also have not only a booth there, but we're going to be doing interviews with people all around.
And I'm sitting here with a nice young man.
Nico Callais from the Young Republicans of Broward County.
You know I'm 82 years old, he's 29.
We're going to get him on all the shows to start to get the young people involved.
I work with Turning Point and there will be other people.
So let's see you on Monday.
Action, action, action.
Thanks for having me on, Steve.
steve bannon
Steve, once again, how do people contact you, particularly over the weekend?
People, I understand, Steve Stern is one of the great warriors in this country.
He's working 24-7.
So how do people get to you over the weekend for any updates and also know what's happening next week and where they're supposed to go?
steve stern
Well, as you know, I started at 4 30 this morning because I texted you.
So, you know, I'm up early sending people and returning emails and sending texts.
So if you want me, Call 954-318-6902, Esther in 1054 Gmail.
We will get back to you.
We'll send you the link.
Get to www.precinctstrategy.
We need to get people involved.
No more of this stuff about people saying, hey, they're too busy.
That's ridiculous.
I mean, give me an hour a week.
Precinct Strategy, Dan Schultz is working around the clock.
Everybody's working terrific.
Now, the greatest thing that happened, we got a guy in Connecticut named Dominic Lombardi.
Twenty years old is going to run for chair of the Republican Party.
One of our MAGA people just became the chair of Hawaii.
We've got lots of information.
I know you've got to go.
Have a nice weekend.
steve bannon
We'll see you on.
There's lots of MAGA.
Remember, there's more MAGA in California than probably any other state in the Union.
That's how, you know, we got to roll.
Can't leave our brethren in these blue states behind.
Steve Stern, also with Steve Stern, sends you his text with his order of battle for the day and what he's got to get on and go through.
It's always, he'll text you at 430 and say, Hey, are you got late sleepers today?
Are you laying in on a Saturday?
So Stern's always there.
Steve Stern, thank you so much.
Appreciate it.
Nico, thank you, too.
steve stern
We got to see you on the flag shirt next time.
steve bannon
Thank you.
Thank you, brother.
Thank you, Steve Stern.
Just to reset, this is about Deconstructing the administrative state, taking apart the administrative state, breaking the imperial capital here in Washington, D.C.
Until the real estate prices in the nation's capital, in the suburbs of Virginia and Maryland, start to drop, you're not doing your job.
Because this all feeds off the $7 trillion that blows through here every year.
Every year.
And now, as far as the eye can see, $2 trillion of that is going to have to print money.
Add to the national debt.
And as we did the other day, and I've looked at some calculations overnight, The calculations are lower, so we're going to get to it.
But look, you're getting to a trillion dollars of interest expense because of the law of large numbers.
This thing is so massive.
And it's kind of come out of nowhere.
Right?
It's really been, look, it's horrible what happened up to the Chinese dropping the bioweapon on us, but now it's been out of control.
And the Biden regime, with the collaboration of Republicans, Have made it the one a precipice.
The only way to turn it around is to make sure you stop the way the cartel does business.
They want to do they want to do everything under the dark at night.
Including come and kick down your door and arrest you.
Don't ask me.
Ask the people that were praying the rosary at the abortion centers.
That's a big crime, isn't it?
Praying the rosary at an abortion center.
Praying for the souls of those babies.
Right?
And the mothers.
That's a crime.
You should have the FBI fully jacked up, up-armored at your house, kicking down the door in front of your children to take you in.
Like Brother Halk in Pennsylvania.
Or looking at the parish in Virginia and all the other Latin mass parishes with the hobbits as domestic terrorists.
That's what you're funding.
That's what this fight's about.
Don't... Don't... Forget the... Forget the... Oh, gosh.
You're gonna see shutdown porn all day today.
Continue on.
Hey, tough break.
We're breaking the fever.
We're breaking the cartel.
Next in the War Room.

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bamm.
steve bannon
I want to thank Birchgold for being our sponsor here on Saturday mornings.
Make sure you go to birchgold.com slash Bannon and get the End of the Dollar Empire.
It's not it's we didn't do this.
I didn't write this to make you the smartest person at a Little League game or at the backyard barbecue or in a conference room right for the meeting starts when you're going to be so much better informed of what's going on with macroeconomics and really the money and power behind the current world financial situation and political and geopolitical.
That's a that will happen.
No doubt about that.
That will happen.
We did it so that you're fully empowered to use your agency, and you've used it here.
There's a lot of chat in the chat room, so I want to thank Birchgold.
Go there.
Also, they've got all the tax-free IRAs, 401ks.
You can get into that with Philip Patrick and the team.
But ask them the question.
I keep telling this.
Ask them the question.
Why is the Federal Reserve, besides printing money, To pay for this madness?
Why has the Federal Reserve spent so much time on a central bank digital currency?
Why are they doing that and all these other central banks of the BRICS nation now aligned against us are trying to somehow put a basket of currencies together?
Somehow, backed by gold, right?
Maybe not convertible into gold, but backed by gold, somehow, to get off the dollar.
And if they can't do that because their currencies are not currently that strong, use those resources in some manner to have de-dollarization.
To really put the nail in the coffin of Bretton Woods.
The fourth installment, you'll see.
You'll be shocked.
One thing I'll tell you, you'll be shocked.
When you read the fourth installment, because it's something that's virtually not talked about.
That is, how did we get away from convertibility?
And here's the thing, both FDR in the 30s, and Nixon, and remember, because Nixon made a Faustian bargain.
He would not go after the Great Society.
Remember, he had the great Daniel Patrick Monaghan as his domestic advisor, and I think Ehrlichman also was on the domestic side, or the staff guy that focused on that.
Remember, Nixon did not cut any of the Great Society programs, didn't go after them.
The fight we're having here, they didn't have that.
Which is the fight you should have had, and you should have had it right then.
Before those things got ossified.
And the reason they went off the convertibility of gold, there's a number of causes, but one of them is that they wanted guns and butter.
Where we are today.
You want all these social programs, you want all this social safety net, you want all this, and plus you want a massive empire that you're gonna fully finance.
And not make, this is one of the reasons, and not make, look, NATO's not an ally, they're a protectorate.
Ukraine's not an ally, it's not, they have no alliance with Ukraine, it's a protectorate.
The Gulf Emirates, Middle East, are protectorate.
You got two that punch above their weight, you got Israel, and you have, and you have Israel as an ally, and UAE, and they punch above their weight.
But it's still a protectorate over there.
Right?
Go around to the South China Sea, the littoral nations around the South China Sea, protectorate.
You go up to North, West Asia in this regards to Japan and Korea, still protectorates.
That's the international, that's the post-war international rules based order.
Here's the problem with that.
On every trade deal with all those entities I just walked around those four, we're upside down.
All the manufacturing jobs have gone there.
Your children and your life is worse because the high value added jobs have all gone because they shipped them there because of lower labor, less environmental, less health care.
So they shipped them over there and yet you underwrite, essentially underwrite their national security, their protection.
And you send your sons and daughters You send your sons and daughters over there to defend it.
And where are they?
Where are they?
And where are the elite's children?
Where are they?
Are they dying on foreign battlefields?
Are they in VA hospitals right now with limbs blown off?
You know, Brian Colfage has got what, three limbs missing?
Well, he's in a federal prison.
Are the elite's children, do you see any of those in VA hospitals?
There may be, on a selective basis, some.
I'm not saying they're all cowards.
I'm not saying that at all.
There's some people in the elite that believe in the old verities, the old values of what right now you can almost say is the old republic.
That's what this fight's about.
Don't let them misguide you on anything else.
And for the pundits that you're hearing that are hammering this, Where were they in January?
I remember this whole thing.
Oh, they're the, you know, but in case of people as the chaos agents, you wouldn't have had regular order.
You wouldn't have had these individual bills.
You wouldn't actually be able to see how the process works and how you can defund it.
If it hadn't been for that, they were also the cheerleader cheerleaders and the debt deal and the debt deal.
Here's the original sin.
Because it's buried the nation.
And you don't see graves and these guys running around.
Where are all the things?
Remember all the huge cuts and all the permitting and all this great stuff that's going to happen, all the stuff on the border, where is it?
It's all ephemeral.
The cuts you saw is because of Gates and these guys and Eli Crane and Matt Rosendale and Andy Biggs and, you know, the 6 and the 10 and now the 21.
And they're banging up the 21 right now.
They're banging heads against walls over there.
Trying to get to a clean start.
Don't do it.
Don't do anything.
Anything.
And here's the thing that you got to understand.
Embrace this for a second.
Why is it?
Is it the child trafficking?
Is it the organ harvesting?
Is it the bioweapons labs?
It has to be something.
Is it Biden taking bribes?
What is this fetish, this obsession?
This totemic obsession they have with Ukraine.
They're in the Senate right now, understanding, and one of the news guys, I think it was CNN, just put, hey, with the White House all in, and the Senate Democrats all in, and most of the Senate Republicans in, and all the House Democrats in, the MAGA guys, and the people we brought over, the 117, because we have the majority, the majority now in Ukraine, we're outnumbered when you look at that four to one about Ukraine.
Well, bring it.
We don't care.
Zelensky and you guys in Kiev, you gotta get something.
Here's what we've done.
The money's getting cut off because we've made it so toxic.
We've made it toxic because we've exposed what the lies are.
And we still haven't gotten to the motives, just like in Maui.
We still don't, there's a lot of... I don't quite understand what happened there.
And I don't quite understand what's happening in Ukraine, but I know one thing.
The money's gonna stop.
And once the money's stopped, you're going to have a lot less dead Ukrainians.
Professor Mersheimer, his warning to the Ukrainian people has come true.
They're going to walk you down a primrose path, and they don't care how many of you they kill or maim in advancing the interests of the globalists.
That's the fight that's happening today.
Do you want to take on Leviathan, or do you want to talk about it?
Think about all the guys you hear all the time on radio and other places that are all limited government.
And all they're doing is trashing the patriots here.
In Congress.
