Speaker Time Text
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
I got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people.
The people have had a belly full of it.
I know you don't like hearing that.
I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
It's going to happen.
jake tapper
And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
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.
unidentified
War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Babb.
It's Saturday, CPAC Saturday.
steve bannon
President Trump's going to be in the house shortly, 24 February, in the year of our Lord 2024.
Let's give it up for a fellow populist, although formerly a Democrat, but now an independent, Congressman Dennis Kucinich.
Can we hear it?
Give it up.
unidentified
Thanks, Steve.
Remember, hang on.
steve bannon
One of our number one priorities.
Because you saw this in 16, a little bit in 20, is to convert as many former, recovering Democrat populists, many independents, over to President Trump and the MAGA movement.
Congressman, walk us through, why has populism not really taken root in the Democratic Party?
Right now, we're very proud, this weekend, Ronald McDaniel is going to step down.
We've taken over the RNC.
We took out a Speaker of the House, the MAGA movement.
We took out the RNC.
We're coming for Mitch McConnell.
Why is right-wing populism on the march?
And hold it, Democratic Party populism, guys like Kucinich have got to leave and run as independents.
Why is that?
unidentified
Well, you know, to begin with, my constituency covers the political spectrum.
It's Republicans, Democrats, and independents.
But the problem that I've had with the Democratic Party is that it's given too much control to the Federal Reserve in terms of monetary policies, that it hasn't taken a strong stand in sealing the border, which we absolutely have to do, and that it needs to take a stand on ending these forever wars, and we have to regain America's sovereignty from organizations like the World Health Organization.
steve bannon
You're preaching the gospel of MAGA.
unidentified
That's why I can win in the seven districts.
steve bannon
Hang over a second.
We're talking about Max Miller's a buddy of ours, and he was President Trump's advancement.
We'll talk about that in a second.
But I want to go back to the Democratic Party.
My family were Democrats, Union Democrats, from the 30s, 40s, 50s.
We walked precincts for Adlai Stevenson and for Jack Kennedy.
The party left us over Vietnam and other issues related to the 60s.
Why is the Democratic Party today supposed to be the party of working people, yet the leadership of the Democratic Party backs the Federal Reserve, backs the forever wars, backs the losses?
If you go in over to the Democratic Party and talk about the WHO, they think it's the greatest health organization in the world.
unidentified
Steve, I'm from, and it's not, I'm from Cleveland, Ohio, and Cleveland, you take the whole industrial Midwest, when those trade agreements happened, NAFTA, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, China Trade, They absolutely ruined the industrial base.
In order for America to be free, we have to have the ability to make steel, automotive, aerospace, shipping products, and we're not doing that.
We have to get back to that.
This is part of our national security, our national economic security.
So the Democrats got away from that.
I voted against every trade agreement that came down the line when I was in Congress because I felt that it undermined America's ability to take care of itself, and it undermined our sovereignty.
Like this World Health Organization issue, they want to take away American sovereignty again.
We have to take a strong stand for American sovereignty at all levels, state and federal, and that's one of the things I'm talking about in the campaign.
steve bannon
So, right now, there's so many still people in the Democratic Party, in the district you're running in, in Ohio, etc.
What is keeping them... I mean, you're in a transition.
You've gone from Democratic Party populist.
You're policy prescription is not listed.
You're not affiliate independent.
You're not with anybody.
unidentified
No label.
steve bannon
So we're transitioning.
You're transitioning to MAGA.
We can feel that.
We can see that.
What is it going to take to get these working-class Democrats... Here's my point.
Once working-class Democrats and the Bernie bros Come, awaken to the reality that they're MAGA.
We're going to have a realignment in this country like 1932.
African-American men are leading the way.
Hispanic men are leading the way.
Why don't you come and join us in common cause?
unidentified
Okay, so look, just so you know, Steve, 40 years ago, I wrote an article saying we need an America First trade policy, we need an America First investment policy, we need to make sure that we protect the economic interests of America First.
I was saying that even before MAGA.
So, you know, I'm somebody who knows how to take a stand, and I think people want somebody back in Congress who isn't tied to any party.
You know, I could end up being the only Independent in a closely divided House.
Think about the impact that could have.
steve bannon
We're looking for more MAGA Republicans right now.
Hang on.
Why are you picking on our buddy Max Miller?
Max is a former Marine.
He was one of my guys in 16, one of the best advancemen.
Max is a fabulous advanceman.
Max has got an edge to him.
He's got an edge to him.
Why are you picking on poor Max Miller out there in Ohio 6?
unidentified
I don't pick on anyone.
I'm running for Congress in a district, half of which I represented for 16 years.
Gotta remember, my district was chopped up, not by Republicans, but by Democrats.
steve bannon
To get rid of you.
unidentified
And they drew it.
steve bannon
Hold on, hold on.
unidentified
From Cleveland to Toledo, two great cities.
steve bannon
Hold it, but they did it, the Democrats specifically did it because they said we gotta get Kucinich out of Congress because he's raising too much hell as a populist, right?
That's what happened.
unidentified
Amen.
steve bannon
So hold it, so what's your beef with Brother Miller?
unidentified
This isn't about him, this is about Creating a space in Congress where our district can be represented by someone who has appeal across the political spectrum, who's able to take a stand, who's respected by all sides, and who works for peace.
steve bannon
Because right now, we have, you know, we could end up- Hold it, Maga, we're the beat the swords into plowshares party.
These are mainly combat veterans.
We're together there.
unidentified
Absolutely.
That's where I'm coming from.
steve bannon
The forever war.
unidentified
You know, I love the effort against the war in Iraq.
Paul, I remember that.
steve bannon
As President Trump was against the Patriot Act.
What about Ukraine?
unidentified
Because I read it.
steve bannon
What about Ukraine?
unidentified
We must stop that war.
It's bad news and it's killing, you know, the Ukrainian people are suffering from our policy.
steve bannon
A million dead.
They can't press gang the young people enough because the parents don't want them to serve.
unidentified
It is a horrible situation and this is the foreign policy of the United States.
It's overextended.
We have to stop this.
It's an empire because the administrative state and the See, do you know that right now, you know, we have $34 trillion debt, $8 trillion of which is connected directly to the fact that we're into these forever wars since 9-11.
So we have to stop that.
Stop the debt from growing.
Repair our national economic integrity.
steve bannon
I'm going to ask the audience, can we eventually flip Brother Kassandra to be MAGA?
Can we do that?
Do we want him?
Do we want him?
unidentified
I was there before.
steve bannon
I was there before.
No, no, no, no.
We need Elder Statesman.
Should we?
He's already here.
unidentified
Is he MAGA?
steve bannon
Start picking on Brother Miller.
By the way, if President Trump asked you to serve in his second term, would you accept?
unidentified
I'm going to go to Congress where I can help whoever's elected president.
If he's elected, I'll work with him.
steve bannon
Next week on March 1st, if Biden didn't shut down the border, would you vote to no more money and shut down the government?
unidentified
No, no, no.
Steve, I'm the one who's going to be in a position to be able to bring people together so we can keep the government going.
steve bannon
We don't want to bring people together.
Shut down the border.
Absolutely seal the border.
unidentified
We're together.
steve bannon
It's very simple.
As a congressman, as a congressman, if we had you in there in a congressman on March 1st, Would you tell him, hey, either shut down the border 100% or no money for the government and we'll force you to the table and I'll lead the negotiations, but either shut it down totally or shut down the government.
Where do you stand?
Where do you stand, Congressman Kucinich?
The floor is yours, baby.
unidentified
Thank you, sir.
Seal the border.
That has to be done.
And it shouldn't require having to shut down the government to do it.
That's it.
steve bannon
I know that, but hold it.
But right now, we are where we are.
On March 1st, you're in the war room, man.
unidentified
On March 1st, we love you.
steve bannon
We've got to get his mind right on a few topics here, right?
How do you shut down the border?
They're just going to happy talk you.
unidentified
You're going to tell people they can't get their social security checks?
steve bannon
I'm not going to do that.
Social security still goes out, military still.
It's only 15% that doesn't get shut down.
All the social security goes out, all the medicare gets paid.
unidentified
If Bannon can guarantee that.
steve bannon
Okay, in other words, it's the 15% that MSNBC is going to go nuts on, you would back that?
unidentified
Oh, look, no, I'm for cutting the federal spending.
I'm for smaller government.
steve bannon
Okay, we have a $2 trillion deficit.
What, how do you get that, what's your plan over five years, even ten years for a balanced budget?
unidentified
You know what, when I was Mayor of Cleveland, I was able to cut city spending by 15% without reducing services.
I'm telling you that the federal government has so much corruption in it, we eliminate the waste, fraud, and abuse, we can cut that Pentagon budget by a minimum of 15%.
steve bannon
15% of the Pentagon, okay fine, I'm with you on that.
Give me, why does the Democratic Party never ever raise taxes on billionaires, sir?
unidentified
Uh, hey, look, I never had a bill that said raise the tax that I wouldn't vote for.
I mean, you know, I'm all for that.
steve bannon
You're all for taxing the billionaires.
unidentified
I, I'm, first of all, I'm opposed to tax increases generally.
You need to know that.
Because government, the more money gets, the more money government wastes, okay?
I mean, does anybody disagree with that?
steve bannon
That's amazing.
You're harder core than we are.
unidentified
But the issues that relate to maldistribution of wealth are connected to Federal Reserve, are connected to the financialization of our economy, are connected to monetary policy, which I'd love to talk to you about.
steve bannon
We'll sit down and talk.
I'll have you back on to go through that.
We're anti-Federal Reserve.
Should we get rid of the Fed?
unidentified
Yes, absolutely.
Cassinich.com.
My wife is here.
I met her on the issue of monetary policy.
How's that for love talk?
steve bannon
You married up, Congressman, no doubt about that.
In every way.
Oh, Cassinich.com.
Okay, what are we going to have to do to flip him to be full MAGA?
unidentified
Just get me in Congress, and I'll work with everyone.
steve bannon
I don't know, Max Miller's such a good guy.
But good luck with that.
unidentified
Thanks, Steve.
steve bannon
Good to see you.
Let's have a big round of applause.
unidentified

Ben Burquand, what do you got for us?
unidentified
What's your name?
Where are you from?
Why are you here, sir?
Patrick Mulvey, Long Valley, New Jersey.
And the reason I'm here is because last year, Steve Bannon, I asked him the question, what are we doing about the 4,000 political appointees that the president gets to make and are we on top of that?
He connected me with more Maureen Bannon, she connected me with heritage.org and Project 2025.
And now I'm in the presidential database, and I encourage everybody to go to project2025.org and get involved.
Get off the sidelines, become an activist.
Wow.
Amen.
The side with the most votes doesn't win.
The side with the most activists win.
So get active.
steve bannon
By the way, Jane, what do you got for us?
unidentified
Thank you.
Norfolk, Virginia, and I'm here to see my favorite president and, of course, Mr. Bannon.
steve bannon
Your name and what brings you to CPAC?

Come on, ma'am.
What brings you to CPAC?
What does your shirt say?
Trump rolling into 2024.
Okay, we've got Mike Lintel in the house.
steve bannon
Can we give it up for Mike?
So first of all, we're going to hold you through the break, but real quickly, tell us, you just gave a speech that was a barn burner.
Your wife says the best speech you ever gave.
And she's, unfortunately for her, had to sit through a couple of three of your speeches, right?
So tell us why it was the best.
mike lindell
Well, I was able to cram in 12 minutes.
I had to talk fast and make sense, and I couldn't even use my notes.
I wanted to get it all in.
I went through the blockers that we have.
steve bannon
These are not notes.
This is a stream of consciousness.
First off, did you flunk penmanship in grade school?
What is this?
I love it.
There's some real heat here.
mike lindell
But I got the point across that we've been blocked by the Uniparty, blocked by the Republican Senate.
steve bannon
Who's blocking you?
Is this another Mike Lindell conspiracy theory?
Who's blocking?
Nobody can block you, Mike.
mike lindell
You want names?
Crooked Brad Rasenberger down in Georgia.
unidentified
Oh.
mike lindell
Robin Voss of Wisconsin.
Kim Hambers of Arkansas.
I mean, the list goes on and on, that everything we try and get done to get to paper ballots and counting, they're out there blocking, which doesn't make sense.
But we've got a great plan.
I announced the plan, thelindaleplan.com.
You can all check it out.
And we went through everything of how we already have now.
steve bannon
Are you going to recall Robin Voss?
When does that happen?
mike lindell
We've got about ten days left.
If you're in Racine County, Wisconsin, get there, sign the petition.
We're getting very close now, where he will be gone, and we need him gone.

We've got a great audience.

We've got tremendous guests about to come up in the War Room.
mike lindell
We rejoice when there is no more.
steve bannon
Let's take down the CCP!
unidentified
Here's your host, Stephen K. Babb.
steve bannon
We're in the War Room!
We're in the second hour in the run-up to the pregame for President Trump's great speech today.
Jane Zirkle, you've got a very special guest.
Who is she?
What is she?
Why is she?
unidentified
Olivia, I recently heard that you just won your school board race.
Tell me how that's going.
Thank you, sweetie.
I did.
I've been serving now for about a year and a half, almost two years, and I'm loving it so much.
And I just, I want to be the light for our children.
And just we have so many conservatives that were encouraged to run for school board.
And I will tell you now that I'm on one, I'm loving the work, but there is so much hope for all of our kids, our public school, our private, our charter and our homeschool.
And I just really want to send the message that it's about getting involved in our own children's classrooms.
And you guys, there's a lot of concerns in public school, but focus on what's happening in your child's classroom, in your community, get involved.
Man, I'm telling you, there would not be children in public schools, period, if everything was operating like the state of California right now.
But there is hope.
I'm in the state of Texas and our schools are doing well.
So I'm loving the work and just want to encourage others to get involved locally in the schools.
Where can people go to support you?
Oh my God, I love that.
Well, on Instagram, 4 4 Olivia.
Really, that's about it.
Awesome.
Awesome.
Keep up the great work.
steve bannon
What do you got for us?
Really important one over here.
unidentified
What's your name?
Where are you from, sir?
steve bannon
And what's your question for Steve?
unidentified
My name is Khurram Bashir and originally I'm from Pakistan, but I live in Maryland.
But I have a question for Steve.
Steve, I want to ask you when Mr. President come back into the office, will you please ask him to speak something about persecution of Christians in the Muslim world?
So I'm from Pakistan.
You maybe know that less than six months ago, the Muslim burned 16 houses, 16 churches in one day, and hundreds of Christian houses in one single day.
It's a lot of persecution happening.
Christians are living as a second class.
steve bannon
It's a great, it's a great question.
No, President Trump gave a full-throated defense of Christians and Christianity at the National NRB conference on Thursday night.
And what I want you to do, we've got to make sure you get a copy of this, President Trump threw down hard.
One of the great secrets nobody talks about, and here's the problem, it's not President Trump.
It's the pulpits of this country.
You don't see any of the Catholics priests in the pulpit.
You don't see any evangelical leaders.
You don't see any of the traditional mainline Protestants getting in the pulpit every Sunday and saying, one of the great tragedies in this world is the persecution of Christians in the Muslim world, but also under the boot of the Chinese Communist Party, and particularly in the foundation of the church, the Desert Fathers.
Our church came out of a desert.
Right?
Christianity is a desert religion that came out of the desert and is being destroyed in Iraq, in Syria, in Egypt and other places by radical Muslims, by the Muslim Brotherhood.
And nobody talks about it, but particularly no Christian preachers in this country talk about it.
That's why, that's why the strongest church, the strongest Christian church in the world right now is in China.
Under the boot of the Chinese Communist Party, 100 million Christians and Catholics that worship every day because they got a murderous dictatorship above them.
Brother, thank you so much.
Great question.
Mike Lindell.
Real quickly, make me, I'm not a machine guy, you know that, and I've been your wingman for three years.
Don't get me wrong, they gotta get rid of the machines, okay?
I'm not picking on individual companies, but I say, there's no need to have these tabulated, all this stuff's so complicated.
It's gotta be paper ballots.
Look, if the French can do it...
If the French can do it, can America do it?
mike lindell
Absolutely.
And you've seen this summer, this summer, one judge in Argentina said, hey, we've got to get rid of these.
And they went to paper ballots in four months.
One of the things, Taiwan just didn't save their country.
Ecuador just didn't.
There's countries all over the world, I met with most of them, like France, Germany, UK, and the Netherlands.
They all have hand counting systems, no machines.
Our hand counting system we developed here in the U.S.
is better than theirs.
It's the best in the world.
steve bannon
But until we get that implemented, we've got to vote early.
You've got to vote early.
mike lindell
No, no, no.
Absolutely not.
Totally disagree.
Vote same day.
I will argue that to anyone that says that.
They're misconstrued.
Vote same day.
It's harder for them to steal the election.
Sorry, Steve.
I'm gonna have those machines gone.
You just hang with me.
steve bannon
Mike, hang with you.
Tell me about, okay, I read the other day, I read the other day, another judge came out and said you owe another five million dollars to somebody.
They're trying to put you out of business every day.
Let's give hope to the employees of, by the way, do you make lumpy pillows?
Is that, was that lawyer- That's a complete lie!
That was a lie?
Did he defame you?
Did you get defamed in a deposition?
mike lindell
Yeah, I'll tell you what.
They defamed me.
I should sue them, huh?
steve bannon
I think so.
mike lindell
Absolutely.
You know, they attack every day when I get attacked.
They attack... I don't mind myself getting attacked.
I can take it.
But my employee-owned company, those guys get attacked every day.
They have families.
It's disgusting that they get attacked.
But the War Room Posse has took care of us.
You guys get the Specials Promo Code War Room.
We've got our sheets right now, the per kill sheets that just came in.

unidentified

mike lindell
You know, Steve, we sell a little bit more of the War Room posse when I'm on Natalie's show.

We'll get this so we can develop that theme better.
We thank you very much, sir.
unidentified
Thank you, sir.
steve bannon
Honored to have you on here.
We're going to have you on the special about fentanyl.
We'll do the three steps to health.
Not that I need three steps to health.
Just saying.
Epitome of health.
Jane Zirkle, what do you got?
unidentified
Yep.
I want to ask you, how do you like your War Room merch?
I love my War Room merch, and I recommend it to everyone.
ShopWarRoom.com!
Oh, I see a MAGA hat over here!
Come on, sir, the MAGA hat!
Come on!
What brings you to CPAC?
I just want to be a part of the crew, right?
I'm from L.A.
and you don't get a lot of conservative thinking over there.
From L.A.?
Enemy territory.
steve bannon
Lower Alabama or Los Angeles?
unidentified
Los Angeles, baby.
Los Angeles, yes.
Wow.
steve bannon
How's MAGA doing in L.A.?
unidentified
MAGA's doing actually pretty good.
So everybody kind of woke up from the whole COVID thing, so anytime I get to be able to talk to people, like, they're very receptive to at least the concepts.
steve bannon
Can we take California and make it great again?
unidentified
I think we can.
Yeah.
All right.
steve bannon
These patriots of California.
Thank you, brother.
What part of LA are you from?
unidentified
Venice Beach.
steve bannon
What?
unidentified
Venice Beach.
steve bannon

unidentified
You're telling me there's MAGA in Venice Beach?

Maybe not very many MAGA.
steve bannon

We'll do a special in Venice Beach.
unidentified
More than welcome.
steve bannon
MAGA takes over Venice.
unidentified
Let's go.
steve bannon
Make sure our producers get your name and number.
Thank you, brother.
Let's give it up for Jeff Clark.
Look, either Jeff Clark's going to be Attorney General.
Every time I say this, they blow up in the mainstream media.
Jeff Clark's either going to be Attorney General or White House Counsel.
Which role do you think you'll be better at for helping President Trump take down the administrative stake?
jeffrey clark
Well, Steve, I'd like to serve however President Trump would ask me to serve, so that question is for the President.
steve bannon
They do say, by the way, when they write these articles, they go, oh, Jeff Clark's done this, he's an insurrectionist.
They do say you're one of the smartest lawyers in the country.
Even when they're criticizing you, they say that you're a legal intellectual heavyweight.
Your response?
jeffrey clark
Well, I've had a long career in the law.
I've been fortunate to work on a lot of gigantic cases at a national law firm and then to serve in the Justice Department for almost seven years across two different administrations, the most recent one obviously being Trump.
You know, I got elected to I don't think we can talk to you about any cases, and you're involved in about 30 of them, right?
group of the Federalist Society, so you know, I don't want to be immodest, but I have been in the trenches fighting and serving as a legal scholar for a long time.
steve bannon
Now, I don't think we can talk to you about any cases, and you're involved in about 30 of them, right?
If I can, or it seems like?
jeffrey clark
I am, yeah.
There are at least six forums I'm fighting in, so I have a local DC bar forum.
steve bannon
Yesterday I was actually... By the way, you're in six forums because they basically want to shut you up and make sure you don't have time to help President Trump, essentially, right?
jeffrey clark
Exactly.
It takes my time away from trying to work on transition issues, to work on legal white papers, and to work on other projects to advance the conservative movement.
steve bannon
In that work, on the transition, we're going to hold you through the break.
We've got about 30 seconds.
Where's your priority?
The transition work you're doing, doing the white papers on legal, where's your center of gravity of your work right now?
jeffrey clark
Well, you know, the easy answer to that question is it's whatever Russ Vought, my boss at the Center for Renewing America.
steve bannon
Russ Vought, CRA!
Hold it, hold it, hold it.
Isn't that the hotbed?
Politico tells me that's the railhead of Christian nationalism.
Is that right?
jeffrey clark
We've been having that controversy over the last few days, and the timing of President Trump speaking to the national Christian broadcasters couldn't be better.
And we have this, you know, low-grade person on CNN saying that, for gosh sakes, her name's Heidi Prisbala, I think.
You know, we think that Christians, they say they get their rights from God.
Oh my gosh, not from the government.
steve bannon
Wow.
Wow.
jeffrey clark
We get them from God.
steve bannon
We get them from God.
No government.
Short break, back in a moment.
unidentified
Your host, Stephen K. Bamm.
steve bannon
Welcome back.
Jeff Clark, tell us what you're working on right now and how we can help the good folks.
You guys ready for a great speech today?
This crowd is fired up already.
Tell us what you're working on.
jeffrey clark
Sure.
So, Steve, I'm working on issues about controlling the border.
We need to get that situation under control, and it was tragic to watch the guests you had on talk about losses to fentanyl.
The Chinese are trying to destroy us.
It is a reverse opium war.
And it's easy to use all of the powers of federal statutes and the president's constitutional powers to get that under control, but Biden just won't do it.
That's why we need Trump back in the White House.
steve bannon
Would you tell Speaker Johnson, if they don't shut down the border between now and March 1st, force the government to shut down and get Biden to the negotiating table?
jeffrey clark
shut the border, make it hermetically sealed, or shut down the government.
unidentified
All right!
steve bannon
Shut the border and you believe we can win that fight?
jeffrey clark
We can win that fight.
It's absolutely politically winnable and it just takes the necessary political courage.
And look, Steve, your show provides a lot of that courage and it shows people out there, the representatives, that the American people, the real American people, not the fake people they put on MSNBC and CNN, are behind trying to get control over the border and they're tired of the government taxing them too much, spending their money in ridiculous ways.
It has to end.
steve bannon
Last thing, the analyst on MSNBC said that, oh, these people believe their rights come from God, not from every state.
That's the fundamental difference, ladies and gentlemen, between the American Revolution and the French Revolution.
The American Revolution, in our documents, says that our rights come from God, right?
And there's no intermediary.
The French Revolution had the whole declaration of mankind and all this and they said, your rights come to you from government.
Is that the basic fundamental fight in this world today?
Those that are on the side of God and those that are on the side of the state?
jeffrey clark
Absolutely!
I mean, they're trying to demonize this term Christian nationalism, and I say, what does that contrast with, Steve?
That contrasts with what?
Satanic globalism?
Alright!
That's really what they push!
steve bannon
He went there!
Satanic globalists, no doubt!
jeffrey clark
Absolutely!
And look, our founders gave us a religiously founded nation.
That's what the Declaration of Independence says.
It talks about God, nature's God, and the rights that he's given us.
And we cannot lose that patrimony, Steve.
We don't want these empty, humanist slogans of the French Revolution.
Liberté, égalité, fraternité.
We want our American Declaration of Independence in our Constitution, Steve.
steve bannon
How do we get to your, where do we get to all the information about you over at CRA?
jeffrey clark
Sure, so I'm at Real Jeff Clark on Getter and X and at Jeff, no I'm sorry, Jeff Clark US at X and Getter and at Real Jeff Clark at Truth Social and the Center for Renewing America is AmericaRenewing.com.
steve bannon
Let's give it up for Jeff Clark!
Our rights come from God, not from any state.
Let's go to South Carolina.
Melissa Bacchus, right?
Michelle Bacchus.
Michelle, Real America's Voice, what do you got for us, girl?
unidentified
Hey Steve, I was at the polling location at 7 o'clock this morning when polls opened.
Two big takeaways.
The first of which, I had some voters coming up to me after they cast their ballot saying that poll workers were telling them that the internet was down and therefore they weren't going to be able to put their ballot through.
They said that they put them in this bin per se, but didn't have much more information.
Now, that's obviously interesting.
steve bannon
Hold, hold, hold.
unidentified
Michelle, hey, yo, don't bury the lead.
steve bannon
The machines are not supposed to be hooked up to the internet!
What did they tell you?
Repeat what they told you.
What'd they say?
unidentified
They said...
The poll workers said that the internet is not working and therefore they had to take the ballots and put them in a separate bin.
Voters were so confused what was going on.
They said that because the internet's not working, the scanners weren't going to work.
I was going to say, is anyone putting this together right now?
steve bannon
All of a sudden.
unidentified
So this happened in Richland County.
steve bannon
I think I'm becoming a machine guy.
Michelle, you're going to be on Real America's Voice all day down there in Columbia.
How do people get to you?
Social media, I know you're putting up stuff non-stop.
Where do they go?
unidentified
Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, all Michelle Backus underscore, also Getter, and Truth Social as well.
Yeah, we're going to be keeping an eye on everything that's happening on the ground here as well.
And I'll tell you what, I'm also seeing some Democrats that have come out today voting for Nikki Haley.
I've seen a lot of that so far, so make sure to stay tuned.
I'll keep you all updated on that.
steve bannon
Tricky Nicky, Michelle, thank you very much.
We'll go back to South Carolina all day.
President Trump speaks of one, Michelle, and our own David Zira down there in South Carolina.
Honored Bernie Flowers, I should say Colonel Bernie Flowers, career military, worked over DOD, and now you're running for Congress.
Tell us about it.
unidentified
I think we got a bad microphone.
Oh, we're good now.
First of all... Just bad.
steve bannon
We just have bad operators.
That's okay.
Ooh, I'm kidding.
I'm kidding.
unidentified
I've been following you for years.
I'm a big fan and a big supporter.
Bottom line.
I'm running for Congress in the third... Are you MAGA?
steve bannon
You're full MAGA?
unidentified
Yeah.
Bottom line.
I'm running in a district that is very heavily Democrat.
But the bottom line here is... What state?
In Maryland.
Maryland's third.
It's an open seat.
We can win this thing.
Hold on.
steve bannon
It's D plus what?
unidentified
D plus 8.
steve bannon
How are you going to get the Democrats?
They're so programmed.
Bernie, I know you're a man of faith.
I know you're a warrior.
You've served your country, right?
You're a colonel or lieutenant colonel.
But how are you going to flip Democrats?
They're programmed.
unidentified
Democrats are not all crazy.
Bottom line is they will listen to common sense.
And we are bringing common sense to District 3 in Maryland.
steve bannon
Is District 3 near Baltimore?
unidentified
It is about 20 miles south.
steve bannon
Baltimore is my mom's hometown, great city, but man, that place is gone, isn't it?
unidentified
Well, I've got a solution.
You've got my book right there in your hand.
It's called Black Values Matter.
steve bannon
Black families are very conservative, are they not?
unidentified
Yes, they are, and I'm counting on it.
There's a lot of people that are afraid to stand up because, you know, they're being attacked.
The family's being attacked.
The black family's being attacked.
But the issue of the day, as Americans, we can bring ourselves together, we can stand up.
I will carry the banner for District 3.
I will bring everybody together.
We got a lot of independents.
We got Fort Meade very, very close.
A lot of conservative people.
We got a lot of Republicans that are ready for a leader, and I am that guy.
He'll be the congressman from the deep state, Fort Meade.
steve bannon
It doesn't get any deeper than that.
unidentified
I was there for 12 years.
steve bannon
Fort Meade, are you listening?
unidentified
There you go.
steve bannon
Talk to me.
Just give it to me in 30 seconds.
What is your message to constituents in Maryland 3 of why you're the guy to represent them as a MAGA Republican in Congress?
unidentified
I spent 34 years behind the fence.
I've seen it all.
My last job in 2022 was on Secretary Mayorkas' staff.
I've seen it all.
I know where the bones are buried, and I can fix shit.
steve bannon
Should he be your former boss be impeached?
unidentified
That's the guy!
steve bannon
No doubt.
unidentified
If he's not impeached by the time I get into Congress, he will be.
Alright!
There you go.
steve bannon
What's your social media?
How do people follow this campaign?
unidentified

We can win this thing!
steve bannon
And where do we get the book?
unidentified
The book is on Amazon.
And it's also on Audible, the e-book.
I read it myself, and I think you'll like it.
But the bottom line is we can fix things if we come together as conservatives.
steve bannon
Let's give it up for the Colonel Flowers!
unidentified
Thank you, Steve.
steve bannon
Can he win in Maryland?
Hell yeah, you got a lot of supporters.

He is not a MAGA.

Arrests?
How many?
unidentified
We just had three brand new arrests in New Jersey alone this past week.
steve bannon
This past week they arrested three more people for January 6th?
unidentified
And they're going to continue, because they have a quota they want to meet.
They want to take down as many people as they can, A, to not be able to vote, and to keep screwing with President Trump.
Excuse my choice of words.
steve bannon
And put fear in people.
unidentified
And to put fear in people.
They don't want people out here doing what they're doing right now, standing here, supporting the Constitution, the rule of law, and freedom of speech.
steve bannon
Did you guys realize that?
The three people got arrested this week for January 6th, and what were they doing?
Walking across the lawn?
unidentified
Well, one, because I'm just learning about them, but one I do know, he's only been charged with misdemeanor charges, the standard misdemeanor charges.
But, you know, we're almost to 1,400 people at this point.
steve bannon
1,400 people.
unidentified
Their quota is at least 2,000 before the election.
steve bannon
So they can say 2,000 insurrectionists all back Trump.
unidentified
Yes, that's exactly.
And you know, to this day, still, nobody has been charged with insurrection.
Nobody.
And nobody's going to be.
steve bannon
Because they can't prove it's an insurrection.
unidentified
That's right, that's right.
steve bannon
Including President Trump.

They're saying we can't use them because the internet's down.
I'm not saying that, that's what the official's saying there.
Cynthia Hughes, who represents so many of the J6 families, number one, this whole court case they've charged President Trump with about stopping a civil proceeding, when does that go to the Supreme Court?

unidentified
The famous 1512 charge, obstruction of an official proceeding, and it's going to the Supreme Court on April 15th to be argued how unconstitutional it is.

On the same theme of suppressing Trump supporters from conservative free speech, my husband and I, along with three other Texans, are being sued under the Ku Klux Klan law for supporting Trump in 2020.
We drove next to the Biden bus exercising free speech.
steve bannon
We broke zero laws.
unidentified
Yes, and Trump retweeted it.
steve bannon
They say that you try to run them off the road.

Oh, wow.
Yes, yes.
Amen!

They have dragged us and January 6th through the impeachment trial for President Trump and in the 14th amendment hearing they said that we are a threat to democracy the MAGA movement and he is not fit to be on the ballot.
They are ruining Americans lives to interfere with the election and we will not let that happen. Amen! Whoa! Joey Lynn we're gonna get you back on We'll get back to the studio and show all the footage, all the video.

And, you know, it's not just us.
I mean, there's a big team behind this.
We had the luxury and the joy of helping to put that team together and bring it, and it was from that journey that we went on with our son that just gave us the clarity to understand there was a problem.
But what we found with this product, I mean, we've talked about this, we weren't even actually trying to make this.
steve bannon
This is about the spike proteins, and you've got a way to kind of reverse that, right?
