Our members tore fairly well.
You've had no defections from the Republican right to trouble you.
Where's the what you promised?
Where the hell are the commissioners?
Oh, my God.
It's true.
You... You lied to me, Mr. Lincoln.
You evaded my request for a denial that there is a confederate peace offer, because there is one!
We are absolutely guaranteed to lose the whole thing!
We don't need a goddamn abolition amendment!
Leave the constitution alone!
The peace commissioners appear today or was on the morning...
State by state you've been extra...
I can't listen to this anymore.
I can't accomplish a god damn thing of any human meaning or worth until we cure ourselves of slavery and end this pestilential war.
Bye.
And whether any of you or anyone else knows it, I know I need this!
This amendment is that cure!
We are stepped out upon the world stage now.
Now!
With the fate of human dignity in our hands!
Blood's been spilt to afford us this moment!
Now!
And you growl and heckle and dodge about like petty-fogging Tammany Hall hucksters.
See what is before you.
See the here and now.
That's the hardest thing.
The only thing that accounts.
Abolishing slavery by constitutional provision settles the fate for all coming time.
Not only of the millions now in bondage, but of unborn millions to come.
Two votes stand in its way.
These votes must be procured.
We need two yeses.
Three abstentions.
Four.
Four yeses and one more abstention and the amendment will pass.
You got a night and a day and a night and several perfectly good hours.
Now get the hell out of here and get them!
Yes.
But how?
Butterscotch man.
I am the President of the United States of America clothed in immense power!
You will procure me these votes?
Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away.
Yet if God wills that it continue, until all the wealth piled by the bondman's 250 years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword.
As was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said.
the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
With malice toward none, With charity for all.
With firmness in the right.
As God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in.
To bind up the nation's wounds.
To care for him who shall have borne the battle.
And for his widow and his orphan.
Which may achieve and cherish a just and a lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.
steve bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
Pray for our enemies.
unidentified
Because we're going medieval on this people.
steve bannon
You're not going to get 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 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.
unidentified
War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Babb.
steve bannon
It is a Monday, 4 March in the year of our Lord 2024, 159 years ago.
Today, actually in about two hours, a couple of hundred yards from where the war room broadcast, President Lincoln gave his second inaugural address, the most powerful speech in American political history.
We're just able to play the end there.
But I want to make sure the middle part or the early part when he's talking about how he has to pass the 13th amendment.
See the here and now.
It's always the hardest thing.
See the here and now.
It's always the hardest thing.
This is why MAGA is so important for the nation because the working men and women of this country see what they see and they are rejecting what this illegitimate Biden regime has done.
Think about the Civil War and all the sacrifice that we would allow an election to be stolen in an illegitimate regime.
To visit catastrophic consequences of that steal upon this nation, including an invasion.
unidentified
Think about the folks that fought on both sides of the Civil War.
steve bannon
Think about what they would think today of an elite in this country that would allow 10 million illegal alien invaders to invade this country, given all the sacrifice on that conflict 150, 159 years ago.
A hundred yards from here is the Supreme Court of the United States, and we just had, at the top of the hour, a monumental decision.
Our own Mike Davis joins us.
Mike, I think you have said from the very beginning, when you first saw this out in Colorado, this would eventually get to the Supreme Court and it would be a nine to nothing decision.
Myself, as much a follower of I Am and believer in your intellect, never thought it'd be 9 to nothing.
I thought 8 to 1, 7 to 2.
Talk to us about this monumental, on a historic day of the 159th anniversary of the Second Inaugural Address, the meaning and power of this development this morning at the Supreme Court.
mike davis
This is a major legal victory for President Trump, and it shows that the Supreme Court is even waking up to this Democrat lawfare and election interference.
You had nine justices unanimously find that what the Democrat operatives did in Colorado to take him off the Republican primary ballot based upon a bogus reading of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment used to disqualify Confederate insurrectionists.
The Supreme Court said that this can't happen in this country, right? And so it was a powerful decision by the Supreme Court.
It sends a powerful message to the rest of these Democrat operatives, like Maine Secretary of State Shetta Bellows, this unelected non-lawyer Secretary of State who unilaterally took Trump off the ballot in Maine after these four whack job left-wing Colorado Supreme Court justices and a four-to-three decision with seven Democrat appointees.
So three of their Democrat colleagues Called them out for their craziness.
Now, all nine Supreme Court justices have reversed this, and they also made it very clear, like I've said all along, the only way you can disqualify an officeholder under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment is Congress has to pass a federal criminal statute for insurrection or rebellion, which Congress has done 150 years ago.
A federal prosecutor has to charge for insurrection or rebellion under this specific Insurrection or rebellion statute with a disqualification clause.
A federal grand jury has to indict.
A federal jury has to find guilt unanimously with evidence beyond a reasonable doubt.
A federal judge has to convict and that conviction must be upheld on appeal.
That is the only way this happens.
steve bannon
Talk to me about particularly the newest appointees of Biden and some of these judges that are obviously on the left.
How possibly did they get to 9-0 and no dissenting opinion at all?
How do you think that happened?
mike davis
I think they cut bait because the legal case was so bad and the politics was so bad.
Look, if there was any chance that Justice Sotomayor-Kagan Ed Jackson could disqualify Trump, they would have done it.
But I think it was a combination of superb legal briefings and arguments by the Trump lawyers at the Supreme Court, and it was the outside effort by the Article 3 Project and others to keep the heat on them, right?
To show that the American people are paying attention to this very closely, And if these Democrat operatives think that these Democrat lawyers and Democrat prosecutors and Democrat judges and Democrat juries and Democrat hellholes get to decide the next presidential election instead of the American people, that's not going to fly.
steve bannon
Mike, hang on for one second.
I want to play this historic announcement.
We're going to do a clip from our favorite MSNBC.
Let's go ahead and play it.
unidentified
The Supreme Court issuing a ruling on the Colorado ballot case.
I want to go straight to Ken Delaney and who is outside the Supreme Court with this decision.
Ken, what do we know?
Good morning, Anna.
We've learned that it was a 9-0 decision ruling that Donald Trump can be on the ballot in Colorado and other states.
Justices during the oral argument seemed very skeptical of the idea that one state could decide for the nation whether Donald Trump was an insurrectionist and was therefore disqualified under this 150-year-old provision.
Now we know that there was not a single justice who who held that view. So there were no dissents to this 9-0 decision, ruling that Donald Trump can remain on the ballot in Colorado as voters go to the polls tomorrow during Super Tuesday, and also in Maine, where there had been a decision to disqualify him from the ballot.
And this ruling, we understand, has the effect of prohibiting other states from attempting to do so.
And that really reflects what we heard from both liberal and conservative justices during the oral arguments on, for example, Elena Kagan confronting the plaintiffs, essentially saying, your problem here is that you're arguing that one state can decide for the nation who can be president. And no justice was willing to go along with that.
steve bannon
Two things there, Mike.
The buried lead, obviously, because Illinois, another WAC judge came out the other day.
They're saying, stop the nonsense.
This is not according to the Constitution.
It's not going to happen on our watch.
Shut it down, essentially.
Otherwise, you'd pop up every other day with another WAC judge, like the one in Illinois, to take him off.
Am I correct on that?
mike davis
Yes, and the three liberal justices, Sotomayor, Kagan and Jackson, actually wrote a concurring opinion.
They said that they joined the judgment today reversing the Colorado Supreme Court's decision, but they wouldn't decide it more broadly because I don't know why.
I think that those three liberal justices wanted this whack-a-mole to create this chaos and uncertainty for the presidential election.
Look, I would say to these Democrat insiders that Wake up.
The American people get to pick our next president.
And guess what?
If you fear American voters, you can't run to these judges just to take President Trump off the ballot.
The Supreme Court just slammed the door on that today.
steve bannon
Mike, can you stick to the next block, because I want to follow up on some more of this.
By the way, did they mention insurrection?
Did they mention anything about the insurrection piece, the way they slid in at the very end of the trial judges, where she went to 98 pages and on the 99th basically took the J6 committee report, we know how great that is, and said that this proves he's an insurrectionist.
Was there any mention of that?
mike davis
What they said is if you want to disqualify him as an insurrectionist, There is a path to do it for the last 150 years, and it's called this Federal Criminal Statute for Insurrection or Rebellion, and it has a little bit of a higher standard, procedural standard and evidentiary standard than the Colorado legal system gave to President Trump with this biased And the J6 committee.
steve bannon
We know what a joke that is.
Just hang on.
I might duly note, too, about President Lincoln.
Remember, President Lincoln, the second time, In 1864, he did not really run as a Republican.
He ran on a national, called I think the National Union Ticket, with Johnson, a Democrat from East Tennessee, which had always been very not totally committed to the Confederate cause, to show unity, because his senior military leader, General McClellan, ran against him and wanted a negotiated peace with the South.
Also, duly note, Jefferson Davis and no one in the Confederate government was ever brought to trial for insurrection or rebellion or treason.
Short commercial break.
We're in turn with Mike Davis on a historic day in Washington, D.C., the imperial capital.
We'll be back in just a moment.
unidentified
We will fight till they're all gone.
We rejoice when there's no more.
Let's take down the C.C.P.!
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bamm.
steve bannon
Okay, let's give you the big picture first, and then we can break it down and talk about the pieces.
But in the run-up to this weekend, and over the weekend, you had Bloomberg's morning console poll on Thursday.
You had the New York Times' Siena poll on Friday and Saturday.
You then had CBS News yesterday.
If you look at all three of those polls, they're absolutely brutal.
For Biden.
In fact, many of the smart polling commentators and observers on the left have come out and saying they don't even see how mathematically Biden can come back, particularly if you look at the crosstabs of what their coalition is and how bad Biden's doing.
People should note that the CBS polls the first time, President Trump at 52, 52-48.
That is mathematically very important.
It's President Trump actually breaking the 50% barrier and getting above 52.
But if you look at the crosstabs and combine them all, It is a devastating picture of a Carter-like, even worse than Carter.
Because even as bad as Carter was, people in his own coalition didn't quite detest him.
You can see that coming up.
In fact, I think it was the Siena poll.
And remember, they work off the predicate that Biden got 81 million votes.
So we know that's funny, but let's just deal with it from their analysis.
93% of Trump voters will vote for him again.
2020 voters will vote for him again in 2024.
Only 83% of Biden voters, including 10% of Biden voters, that would be, according to their math, 8 million.
8 million Biden voters will vote for President Trump in 2024.
Now, that was everybody.
When you talk about likely voters, the numbers even get worse.
So this is catastrophic.
Then today, and all weekend, they're still going on, and let me know when we get that 60-day thing ready to go, play before Mike Davis comes back.
All weekend, they're plotting on the law fair.
They just got a crushing blow here.
On the historic 4th of March, just a body blow, 9 to nothing.
They were hoping 7 to 2 and they could have some dissent of what to hang their, put a hook on.
Can't do it.
Tomorrow is going to be a 19 state blowout by Donald Trump and will cement the greatest political comeback in the history of this republic.
Then on Thursday, Joe Biden and according to Bill Maher, not the war room, but Bill Maher says when it's complete takedown the other day of Biden, he walks like a like a baby that's got a full load in a diaper, right?
That he's going to go give a State of the Union, which they bet the entire house on that this is the largest audience he will have before Election Day.
He's got to convince the American people that his policies are working and he's a guy can execute on it.
So a historic week, and we kick it off, Mike Davis.
Do we have the 60 day yet?
Mike Davis, over the weekend, and Lawrence O'Donnell, they had a special the other night.
Let's go back to J6.
They had a special.
Rachel Maddow, Chris Hayes, Joy and Reed and all the think tank over there agree with War Room because they're in the mumble tank.
And we're saying, hey, this thing's a late April.
It's not going to be decided until June.
It's over.
It's not going to happen.
Lawrence O'Donnell actually took, because you were so dour the other day coming in, he actually took your position and said, hey, I think there's a lot of good news here and you guys are missing it.
Number one, they didn't allow him to go en banc.
They've got to go to the Supreme Court right away.
A decision could be made.
And you can get on with this if you think about the 60-day rule.
And then all weekend, the one thing that's rejuvenated them on lawfare is Chutkin, Chutkin, Chutkin, Chutkin, Chutkin.
In fact, I think both the New York Times and the Washington Post did huge, and Politico, all three, a trifecta, did huge pieces on her about how the pressure's on her to really save the Republic.
Your thoughts?
mike davis
This Democrats' lawfare and election interference is falling apart.
We see this with the Supreme Court today with this 9-0 decision where the Democrats thought that after our two impeachments, our four bogus indictments, our illegal and constitutional gag orders, our bankrupting Trump for non-fraud and giving Jean Carroll this whack job, nearly $100 million for her B.S.
defamation case.
That all backfired.
So we're just going to go to our Democrat judges and just take them off the ballots.
And the American people are going to be fine with that.
The Supreme Court's going to let that happen.
This is a major, major loss to the Democrats in their law for with a nine to nothing decision.
It is very hard to get the Supreme Court to rule nine to nothing against you in a highly contentious, highly political case.
But these Democrats found the way with this case.
And they're also going to lose with—the Supreme Court is going to hold that the Biden Justice Department's obstruction charges, this post-Enron obstruction law that Congress passed for destruction of evidence and threatening witnesses, you're going to see the Supreme Court reverse these January 6th defendants' convictions on that obstruction charge before And oh, guess what?
That's half of Jack Smith's case against Trump.
And so half of Jack Smith's Criminal case in D.C.
against Trump is going to go away at the end of June, and then the Supreme Court is almost certainly going to rule that presidents of the United States—any president of the United States—has immunity from criminal prosecution for their official acts, just like federal judges have immunity, just like members of Congress have immunity.
And so then that's going to have to go back to Judge Chudkin for an evidentiary hearing after June to figure out Which of President Trump's alleged bad acts on January 6th were in his official capacity, like, for example, not calling the D.C.
National Guard up fast enough or wanting to fire his acting attorney general?
Those are clearly presidential acts, but Jack Smith is using those as predicate facts for his indictment against Trump, so those are going to get kicked out.
And then what are personal acts?
And so this trial is not going to happen before the presidential election.
This lawfare is falling apart for the Democrats.
This election interference is not going to happen.
steve bannon
What does this tell us about the temper of the Supreme Court in getting involved in any of this or anything that they see about this?
What do you take as you read this?
And by the way, Jeff Clark's doing a thorough reading right now.
He'll join us in the 11 o'clock hour.
What is this?
How do you read this?
mike davis
I read this as the Supreme Court is actually doing its job and following the law as the law was written and as the law was intended, and they're applying the law, and they came to a 9-0 result here.
After all the Democrat hysteria and the Democrats' lawfare and election interference, the Supreme Court 9-0 just whacked them across the head today and said that you're not going to do this, you're not going to just take A leading presidential candidate off a state ballot because you don't like him.
steve bannon
By the way, this 9 to Nothing also takes Mike Davis and War Room and the folks that worked on Gorsuch, because they've been blaming, oh, they got these Trump MAGA judges in there and that's what's driving this.
9 to Nothing's kind of up in the grill.
I want to play a short clip.
So they rolled out Weissman and I think Katya yesterday, and just, you know, get them on a Sunday morning on the shows, and it was just the gnashing of teeth.
But I want to go to one very specifically we have to address now.
Let's go and play it.
unidentified
And also, your level of concern that Judge Cannon, who should know better, asked about it and raised it.
Sure.
So there are two issues with Judge Cannon raising it.
First of all, it's an internal rule.
It is not a law.
It is not something that gives any rights to any defendant.
And Judge Cannon had been at the Justice Department She knows that.
So the idea that she raised it is, you know, issue number one, that sort of red flag number one as to why is she even raising something that is just internal department guidance.
That guidance could be changed by Merrick Garland any day of the week.
Second, the rule does not apply!
Right.
And you know, for anybody, anyone who has been in the Justice Department, this is such a red herring.
This is why it is completely wrong.
That rule is intended so that the Justice Department does not take action in a covert case that is suddenly overt shortly before an election.
Why?
Because you don't want to influence the election when that person, the candidate, doesn't have an opportunity to get to trial.
They want their day in court just to show that these allegations by the Justice Department are wrong.
Why is that inapplicable here?
These are overt allegations where the Justice Department is actually asking for a day in court so that the defendant has the opportunity to refuse.
steve bannon
In the process, for timing, we cut that a little tight.
The topic they were discussing is going to become quite important, ladies and gentlemen.
This is what's called the 60-day rule.
And it's supposed to be, it's a rule that within 60 days of an election, you're not supposed to bring charges or have any types of trials or anything like that because it's essentially election interference.
Mike Davis, this is the new thing.
And it's both on Chutkin, because all Sunday, all they're talking about is, because the one they really want to go with is not classified docs.
The one they want to go with is put Trump in front of a DC jury.
Which, by the way, Trump won 676 votes in the Republican primary yesterday in D.C., which I think totaled 1,300 votes in a city of 700,000.
So that tells you what the bias is here.
They want to get him in front of a D.C.
jury on these phony quasi-insurrection charges.
Mike Davis, your thoughts about the 60-day rule?
mike davis
So Andrew Weissman is such a partisan clown.
He is the Russian collusion hoaxster who worked for Mueller.
He is such a partisan actor.
He's the one who has been concocting this lawfare and posting it on Twitter.
And then these dumb Democrat prosecutors like Jack Smith and Alvin Bragg and Fannie Willis and Tish James jump and walk like dogs to Andrew Weissman.
And they're going to get slammed by the Supreme Court on many different fronts.
So Andrew Weissman is just a total partisan clown.
You know, it's hilarious.
Mark Elias actually lets the cat out of the bag when he tweeted out essentially that their goal is to get President Trump convicted by this over-the-top.
Overwhelmingly anti-Trump D.C.
jury before the election.
They're not even hiding it anymore that this is such blatant election interference.
And if they're going to say the 60-day rule at the Justice Department, which is clearly in place to prevent a Justice Department from interfering in an election, and that's exactly what the Biden Justice Department is doing.
steve bannon
A short break.
Mike, just hang on for a second.
I know you've got to bounce.
I just want to talk about the efforts of Article 3 to do this.
Raheem Kassam from National Pulse, his observations, also what's going on in Texas.
So much happening.
We're gonna get it all to you this morning in the war Here's your host Stephen K band Um Um...
We'll get to that in the second hour of the budget fiasco that's going on.
Just understand that Schumer, everything Schumer wants, everything the Democrats want, is all getting approved.
Mike Johnson, the moderates, are just rolling over and everything.
Any spin you're hearing about policy wins is a lie.
Anything, no cutting the budget.
Now, Professor Wharton came out and agreed with the War Room saying, hey, I've just noticed that I ran the math on the over $34 trillion of national debt.
And the trillion dollars every hundred days we're adding, it looks like in perpetuity.
And he's saying, I think 2025 we could have a financial crisis and implosion.
We'll deal more with that in the second hour and try to break it apart for you.
Everybody's coming the war room's way as on all big topics that we follow, right?
You got to be the pathfinder.
Eventually, they understand and wake up to the empirical evidence.
Let's say it like that.
But President Trump, these are the burden on his shoulders with 10 million illegal alien invaders plus a financial collapse.
And it's pretty mathematically.
I mean, the math is not that hard.
As I say, it's not quantum mechanics.
Birchgold.com Go check it out today.
Talk to Philip Patrick and the team.
Get their take on things.
Gold I think is near record high, but just go check it out about the convergence of forces in the world today that make gold a hedge against times of turbulence.
Because one thing I think we can commit to you and guarantee you the turbulence is only going to get worse as we go forward here until President Trump returns and then after several years we can set things right.
I've got Merrick Garland went down and really took Fonny Willis' place yesterday.
Merrick Garland stepped in for Fonny Willis and did some old-fashioned preaching yesterday in a church.
Let's go ahead and hear Merrick Garland and I want to get Mike Davis' take at Article 3.
unidentified
The right to vote is still under attack.
And that is why the Justice Department is fighting back.
That is why one of the first things I did when I came into office was to double the size of the voting section of the Civil Rights Division.
That is why we are challenging efforts by states and jurisdictions to implement discriminatory, burdensome, and unnecessary restrictions on access to the ballot, including those related to mail-in voting, the use of drop boxes, and voter ID requirements.
That is why we are working to block the adoption of discriminatory redistricting plans that dilute the vote of black voters and other voters of color.
steve bannon
Okay, so I want to tie the polling together with what you're seeing because the polling shows an overwhelming blowout and the momentum's just picking up.
Now to counter that, they've got two shots to keep power, to remain in power.
And they understand when they're thrown out, judgment day's coming.
So they're going to do everything, everything, everything to hold on.
One is lawfare.
And as you see, and we even had a chance to refer back to Fannie Willis's Not a Good Day in Court on Friday.
But the lawfare is crumbling and cratering around them as Mike Davis told us it would.
Now they got to go back to the big steel.
And man, Garland right there, the chief law enforcement officer in the country, reporting to the illegitimate chief magistrate, that would be Biden, is up front, mailing voting, drop boxes, voter I.D.
They're in your grill.
They're not hiding this, folks, about what they intend to do to steal this election.
Mike Davis, Article 3, you've had such a massive impact for such a small group.
Like all good Irishman fighters, you punch way above your weight.
You've done such an incredible job.
Really, you were the first person on this Colorado situation and bringing everybody's attention, hammering and making sure the right lawyers were on top of it.
A 9-0 blowout historic decision.
Give us your concern about what else we got going between them trying to steal it and Garland, hey, he ain't hiding it!
He's not hiding it.
You got to give him a hat tip on that.
He's up in your face.
Now he's going to see, because they think the Republicans are all weak and wimps and pencil necks and will fall as soon as you use the racist.
As soon as you say racist, as soon as you say racist, they're all going to go, oh my gosh, let me go get in the fetal position.
Let me run and hide.
Right?
Mike Davis, where do we stand on lawfare?
Where do we stand on them stealing the vote as Mayor Garland, the Attorney General, the predecessor to Mike Davis, maybe, or Jeff Clark, maybe, a symptom of how they're going to steal it?
mike davis
Well, I would say if you thought that 2020 was bad with their COVID nonsense, where they went to all mail ballots illegally, unconstitutionally, they got rid of election observers, And they had mailboxes set up everywhere, and then they got rid of signature verification because somehow COVID changes your signature, and they managed to rig that election along with their BLM and Antifa riots.
Just wait till 2024 when they have their Hamas riots to scare the hell out of Republican voters who tend to show up on election day.
So Republican voters do not show up on election day.
Bank your vote as early as possible so we can make sure it gets in there.
But think about what the attorney general is arguing here, that if states put in place measures to prevent a rigged and stolen election, That's somehow racism.
That's utter nonsense.
And I say, hell no.
And these Republican officials need to get injunctions right now.
and federal court. So this does not happen right before the election. Get injunctions on drop boxes, on signature verification, on election observers, on mass mailing ballots.
Do the injunctions now. And that was the problem with 2020.
They did not get the injunctions ahead of time. So the election was stolen and there was not a damn thing they can do about it because they didn't get the injunctions. The lawyers need to be seeking injunctions right now based upon Merrick Garland's preaching from the pulpit.
steve bannon
it.
Mike Davis, Article 3, particularly your Action Center, where do people go to find out what it is and sign up?
mike davis
Yeah, I think people should light up Governor Kemp and Attorney General Chris Carr again and tell them to open a criminal probe on Fannie Willis down in Georgia.
These Republican statewide officials in Georgia are very weak and we need to help them find their backbones.

Thank you.
Nine to nothing at the Supreme Court.
Rahim, pull it back and give me where we stand.
You've seen the polling.
You were in Texas yesterday.
You saw the enthusiasm as MAGA goes up against the Bush establishment.
The ruling today, Fannie Willis, lawfare.
I mean, folks, If you love history and you love making history because this audience is an activist audience, we're just not passive.
We're not just partisans.
We're in the fight.
We're in the arena.
We're not just giving you a front row seat.
We're putting you in the ring.
It doesn't get better than this, does it, Rahim Ghassan?
raheem kassam
Well, this morning, you know, Steve, I hear 9-0, 9-0.
And all I can think is somebody call Mike Lindell.
We finally got the 9-0 at the Supreme Court.
You like that one, didn't you?
It is one of these situations where you can allow a little moment of celebration for that, but you have to get back to the hard work of it almost immediately, right?
And I think what you heard from Garland this weekend is an indication that they already kind of know where this was going.
They knew that they weren't going to get anywhere with this.
But also...
steve bannon
Rahim, hang on one second.
I want to play Garland again.
I want the audience...
Here's why.
Everything we've talked about, including redistricting, all of it.
And here's what I do respect about Garland.
They're up in your face on this.
They're not going to hide it.
This is like, Rahim, when you found the Transition Integrity Project in the summer of 2020, Mark Elias, they weren't hiding it.
They're telling you exactly how they're going to steal it down to the weeks it was going to take them to steal it.
Let's listen to Merrick Garland yesterday.
And just remember, nomenclature is very important here.
Look at the mantra he goes through of what they're going to push to steal the 2024 election.
Let's hit it.
unidentified
The right to vote is still under attack.
And that is why the Justice Department is fighting back.
That is why one of the first things I did when I came into office was to double the size of the voting section of the Civil Rights Division.
That is why we are challenging efforts by states and jurisdictions to implement discriminatory, burdensome, and unnecessary restrictions on access to the ballot, including those related to mail-in voting, the use of drop boxes, and voter ID requirements.
That is why we are working to block the adoption of discriminatory redistricting plans that dilute the vote of black voters and other voters of color.
steve bannon
Rahim, right there is the National Pulse War Room kind of efforts with our audiences and readership to make sure elections are not stolen.
Is that correct, sir?
raheem kassam
I can't get over the visuals of that, by the way.
I mean, from the shoddy camera footage to the thrones that are set up there behind him, it looks like a scene out of the Nigerian parliament or something.
But Merrick Garland's perspective on this, I think, needs reframing, right?
Because what this is, this is what they always do.
They say, oh, they're peddling a conspiracy theory, whatever.
This is a racist conspiracy theory that Merrick Garland is peddling, effectively telling black voters across America, you are too stupid to get voter identification.
Right.
And that's that's the top line of it.
What you're talking about is the is the depth is below beneath the surface here.
Right.
And I agree with you.
But there's something else that they signaled last week, which is just as important and just as imperative.
To why Merrick Garland felt the need to go out this weekend and say what he said, right?
Last week it was buried.
15th paragraph in Politico playbook on a Wednesday, whatever it was, it was buried.
House Democrats signaled to reporters that if they take control of the House at the next election, that they will refuse to certify, listen to me, they will refuse to certify The election of President Donald J. Trump.
The irony, I'm sure, is not lost on this audience.
But they are saying this outright now, and they knew that they were going to get this here at the Supreme Court today.
steve bannon
Hang on.
We talked about this.
This is a bombshell that has not been reported.
I want to go back.
People have to remember, as we said in 2020, when we had it all worked through about exactly how President Trump should have been by the House of Representatives, It is the Congress that comes in on, I think, 3 January of 2025 that gets elected on 5 November.
It's that Congress that comes in and will handle the certifications of all this on the 6th of January.
And what Jamie Raskin and these guys intend is that he, Hakeem, to pick up a handful of seats because of these redistricting fights in New York and other places, Raheem, they would be in control.
And they said, repeat what they said, because they told the world they ain't hiding this, folks.
What did Raskin and this crowd tell people last week about the certification process?
raheem kassam
Well, let me bring you back just for a second to a point that's been made and again hasn't received enough, you know, realization of what's happening here.
A lot of this redistricting stuff, you know, you talk about diluting the vote, they talk about diluting the vote.
Merrick Garland goes up, they talk about diluting the vote.
The diluting of the vote, especially when you talk about redistricting all of these things, the gerrymandering that is taking place, is reliant upon the illegal migrants that are coming into the United States of America.
They are utilizing the data sets with those extra people.
They don't even have to vote, they're saying.
They're saying, you know, we all know, right?
We all know.
But they don't even have to go that far.
They're using that to redistrict.
And that's a dilution of your vote, ladies and gentlemen.
steve bannon
Hang on, you're gonna stay for the next segment.
We got a lot to go on.
I don't want to bring up a too fine a point, but who was the driving force in making sure that in the census of 2020 that illegal aliens were not, or non-citizens were counted in the census?
Yes, Stephen K. Bannon.
And of course, people around President Trump, some of them just weren't as tough on this.
and eventually got reversed over commerce.
Short break, back in a moment.
unidentified
Here's your host, Stephen K. Babb.
steve bannon
Welcome back.
Birch Gold, again, look, Turbulence is going to be here this week.
It's a historic week.
But wait for it.
25 March, they're going to get President Trump trying to get him in a New York state court.
This thing's going to blow up.
It's going to be insane.
We're going to cover it wall to wall.
Jeff Clarkson will join us in a second.
But Rahim, as we always in National Pulse, as one of our strategic partners, does such a great job.
We're giving signal, not noise here.
We're giving signal, not noise here.
And I tell you what.
Before we get back to that, we've got, because I know there's a lot going on, we went to Texas yesterday and had a great event supporting Paxton and all the candidates he had around him.
This New York Times did a huge story on this.
New York Times did a huge story on this and said this is a fight of MAGA versus the establishment in the most important state in the union for MAGA and that would be the state of Texas.
Rahim, you also for the first time, a very special young man that's running an incredible fight and is one of us from DC.
He's a Texan but one of us from DC.
He's had a great sight.
Conservative side up for years.
The first time National Pulse is actually going to endorse anybody.
Can you walk us through who it is, why you're doing it?
raheem kassam
Yeah, thanks, Steve.
So typically speaking, we've steered clear of making political endorsements.
It just hasn't been our bag.
But we endorsed President Trump as soon as he announced last year.
And the second endorsement ever that the National Pulse is making is a gentleman who's up on the show in just a moment.
And there's a reason for it.
In addition to, and I think you're absolutely right, people really, really need to get this through their heads.
There is a fight going on in Texas right now.
There is a fight between the political establishment, the old Bush establishment, the Rove establishment, and MAGA conservatives who are working, and we met so many of them yesterday, who are out there working hard every single day and are finding, you know, doors are getting slammed in their faces, institutions aren't there, they're hollowed out, all of these things.
They have to have, they need real MAGA fighters elected.
And that applies at a house level, applies at the AG level, applies at state level.
And Brandon Gill is somebody who, you know, we don't just endorse because we like, you know, what their policy section on their website says.
A lot of people can do that.
But it has to come down to the cut of one's jib, and it has to come down to the content of their character.
And I've known this person now for a long time, known them personally.
We have no vested interest in him or his campaign.
But I looked at this, and I looked at the situation I've been studying the race for some time now, and I go, It is about time that we put our shoulder to the wheel in as much as we possibly can do to get people like that who will actually go to Congress and where things like this, what we were just talking about in the last segment, right?
The fights over the census information.
Frankly, I think, you know, they prosecuted John Eastman for having a novel legal theory.
I think the people who brought this case to try and kick Trump off the ballot should be prosecuted for their novel legal theory.
If that's the way the game is, then that's the way the game is.
And so we need to have fighters who are not just commentators, who don't want to just watch, who don't want to just get subsumed by the blog, who aren't looking for a 30-year-long career, you know, stalking the hallways of the Capitol building.
The people who are there to hard and fast make the change that America so desperately needs.
And that's why the National Pulse is putting its endorsement behind Brandon Gill for Congress, and we're very proud to do so.
steve bannon
We now bring in Brandon Gill.
Brandon, of course, with this debacle that's going on this week in the House, we need fighters.
We need smart and tough fighters on Capitol Hill in the House.
Walk us through who you are, what's your campaign, who you're up against, and how can this audience help?
unidentified
Sure.
And first of all, thanks for having me on.
And Raheem, thank you for that.
It's an honor to be endorsed by the National Polls.
Raheem is a friend of mine doing phenomenal work over there.
I'll tell you a little bit about this race because I think we're in a really, really interesting point here.
Prior to getting into the campaign side of politics, I'd been on the conservative media side.
So as you mentioned, Steve, I founded a news website called DC Inquirer, which is a pro-Trump America first news site.
I founded it specifically to go to bat for President Trump in the public sphere.
Whenever I wasn't doing that, I was working on political documentaries.
I helped make a movie called 2,000 Mules, which was about the 2020 election being stolen.
And it was.
And last fall, I was the executive producer of a movie called Police State, which traces how the federal government has been weaponized against conservatives and Christians.
And perhaps in my own ignorance, I would always get frustrated whenever I was in on the media side.
I'd always get frustrated.
Why is nobody in elected office talking about the 2020 election being stolen?
Or at least most politicians won't say that it was stolen.
They won't say that there was widespread election fraud.
Most politicians won't fight against the weaponization of government, or they won't even admit that it's happening.
I couldn't figure out why that was, and I've learned firsthand over the past three weeks why.
It's because whenever you are bold about the 2020 election being stolen, about the FBI, for instance, being weaponized against conservatives and Christians and patriots, the swamp comes at you hard, and that's what we're seeing in this race right now.
$2 million from some D.C.
swamp super PACs have been dumped into Texas 26 in this race against me, not in favor of any other candidate, not against any other candidate, just trying to take me out.
And think about it.
This is an 11-person Republican primary right now.
We're not even in a runoff yet.
If nobody gets above 50% tomorrow, then the top two competitors go to a runoff.
But we're early in a Republican primary, and the swamp does not want me here.
And I know exactly why.
It's because I've been endorsed by President Trump and Senator Cruz in the Freedom Caucus, and I plan on being a member of the Freedom Caucus on day one, and the swamp does not want that.
They do not want another conservative fighter in Washington.
They want somebody who's going to go along to get along, and that's not me.
steve bannon
Brandon, where do people go to your website, social media, the first rounds tomorrow?
We hope that you're over 50%, but where does this audience go?
unidentified
Yep, you can find more about me at brandongillforcongress.com.
You can also, at the top right of that website, there's a little dollar sign where you can contribute.
And right now, we are trying to punch back against these super PACs as hard as we can.
They are spreading all kinds of slanderous lies about me.
But we're swinging back pretty hard, so if anybody would like to help us out there, help us close our media buy, help us get the message out and fight back, you can do so at my website.
steve bannon
Brandon Gill is a fighter.
He's been a fighter as long as we've known him, both in the media and now in running for Congress.
He's going to join the Freedom Caucus.
He is endorsed by President Trump, Senator Cruz, Raheem Kassam.
And you see him right here in the War Room.
Brandon, thank you so much.
Get back to the fight, brother.
Short break, 90 seconds.
