Right. | |
You had people from the far right and the far left opposed. | ||
You had people in the middle and even some on the far left and the far right for this bill. | ||
You don't see anything come out of this chamber, Katie, as we talk about all the time, with 352 votes. | ||
So it should theoretically put some pressure on the Senate to act. | ||
And what happened here is that This is something that members of Congress have been briefed on. | ||
It's been something they've been talking about for a long time. | ||
I've long maintained that few things unify Congress these days besides a fear of and interest in clamping down on China. | ||
And that's what you saw here. | ||
And it didn't hurt that two things. | ||
Number one, the Biden administration was up here. | ||
Intelligence officials were up here last week briefing the House or this week briefing the House of Representatives about the danger in TikTok. | ||
What they see as the danger of TikTok came out of the committee 50 to nothing, Katie. | ||
Again, that is incredibly, incredibly rare. | ||
But the question is, what does the Senate do with it? | ||
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has said he's reviewing it. | ||
As we all know, anything getting through the Senate is a feat in and of itself. | ||
And by the way, we've also seen the Senate pass Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan aid with 75 votes or 70 votes. | ||
It came over here and it got no action. | ||
So a large vote total doesn't necessarily precede action. | ||
But I would say in this case, you have Mark Warner, Marco Rubio, top Republican and Democrat on the Intelligence Committee in favor. | ||
It's probably going to be a lot of pressure in the Senate. | ||
So what happens if the Senate passes it and it gets signed by President Biden? | ||
Does the app just disappear from people's phones? | ||
Yeah, no. | ||
180 days. | ||
ByteDance has to divest its holdings in the app, I think, below 20 percent. | ||
And it needs an owner. | ||
Effectively, it needs an owner. | ||
And Katie, I can't tell you the things I've—the number of people that have come up to me over the last year or so expressing just complete panic about TikTok. | ||
People in the intelligence community, people with access to the kind of intelligence about what TikTok allegedly again. | ||
I don't have first hand knowledge, but allegedly does. | ||
They say that basically we have all everyone who has tick tock. | ||
I don't have it has spyware on their phones and they are spying on us. | ||
They are looking at everything we do again. | ||
No background, no, no first hand knowledge. | ||
But members of Congress are freaked out. | ||
They would have 180 days to sell the app. | ||
Some opponents of the Bill Katie say that's not enough time, but it wouldn't disappear from apps Of course, after that 180-day period, it would be lights out for TikTok. | ||
I don't have it on my phone either. | ||
I think it's absolutely insane to have it on your phone, given all that information. | ||
I think it's nuts. | ||
And I'm speaking to my team, many of whom have it on their phones. | ||
I think you're nuts. | ||

I love you guys, but I think you're nuts. | |
As Haiti starts to create the framework for a new transitional political council, the United States is sending in more reinforcements. | ||
The U.S. | ||
military deploying the elite marine team called the Fast or Fleet Anti-Terrorism Security Team. | ||
That team being sent to Haiti to help protect the U.S. | ||
Embassy in the capital as the country's political structure This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
several weeks, Haiti saw a surge in gang violence, demanding the prime minister to step aside, which he did finally agree to do yesterday. However, that may not be the end to this revolt. | ||
Gang leaders are now saying they want a seat at the table when it comes to decisions being made about the country's political future. This is the primal scream of a dying regime. | ||
Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people. | ||
I got a free shot 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. | ||
And where do people like that go to share the big lie? | ||

War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bamb. | |
It's Wednesday, 13 March, Year of the Lord 2024. | ||
So, so many things are going on today. | ||
Signal, not noise. | ||
We're going to start with TikTok. | ||
We'll start with Laura Loomer. | ||
Peter Navarro is going to join me here momentarily. | ||
Laura Loomer, you've been pretty aggressive on On Twitter this afternoon, I guess all day actually, on this TikTok situation, walk us through your concern about President Trump. | ||
You believe you see something playing up like a crossfire hurricane or like the potential Russiagate situation that happened in the summer of 2016. | ||
Ma'am, what are your concerns? | ||
Let's be honest, Steve. | ||
When am I not aggressive? | ||
So I'm always aggressive, right? | ||
But we have to be aggressive with these people because they're whores. | ||
These members of Congress and the United States Senate who are saying that they are opposed to a ban on TikTok, they are all whores. | ||
And I have to expose these political prostitutes for what they are, Steve. | ||
You have Senator Rand Paul. | ||
You have people like Mike Lee, who are on Twitter today talking about how, oh, we are against a ban on TikTok because it is a violation of freedom of expression. | ||
But then what they don't want to tell you is that they are bankrolled by Jeffrey Yass, who is a billionaire GOP megadonor and also happens to be the largest U.S. | ||
investor to TikTok. | ||
Rand Paul didn't disclose the fact that he received $2.3 million, Steve, $2.3 million from Jeffrey Yass. | ||
I just posted moments ago before coming on your show, Senator Mike Lee also received a max donation from Jeffrey Yass. | ||
And so if these people want to talk about opposing a TikTok ban when they were all in favor of a TikTok ban when Donald Trump was in the White House talking about banning TikTok, why don't they disclose the fact that they're bought and paid for and they're willing to sell us out and sell our country out Like a bunch of cheap hookers for the price of a max donation. | ||
Okay, hang on one second. | ||
Let's slow down because we'll get to too many. | ||
These are two of the best well-known defenders of the First Amendment. | ||
Libertarians, particularly Rand Paul, but also Mike Lee was talked about going to the Supreme Court. | ||
These are people that are fierce defenders of the First Amendment. | ||
Do you see any Uh, not benefit, but any reality in the argument they're making that this is a mistake because the way it's written that we're actually turning more power over to the Biden regime. | ||
And in fact, the reason the Biden regime supports this is not about shutting down the CCP since they've clearly taken money. | ||
from the CCP, from Blinken to Biden to the whole family, but that we're playing into the hands and walking into a trap of turning over and creating more government power to really shut down these type of futilistic tech overlords. Ma'am? Look, since when do members of Congress care about big tech and free speech? Okay, that's a big question. | ||
These are the same members of Congress and the United States Senate that have done nothing, Steve. | ||
They have not filed a lawsuit. | ||
They have not held anybody accountable for the stolen election of 2020, which was stolen by the big tech social media companies, okay? | ||
Let's not forget that a sitting United States president, Donald J. Trump, the best president ever, was deplatformed by the big tech social media companies, and all of these people were taking campaign donations from The very companies that deplatformed us, and all of a sudden, now they want to pretend like they care about freedom of expression in an election year? | ||
They care about lining their pockets with campaign cash in an election year from a guy with unlimited funds, and they are willing to sell our country out. | ||
Since when does the Chinese Communist Party care about freedom of speech, okay? | ||
There is no such thing as freedom of speech. | ||
If you make a TikTok video, And you criticize Xi Jinping, you will go to jail. | ||
You will be thrown into a Chinese concentration camp like the Uyghurs. | ||
So let's just cut the BS, okay? | ||
They are trying to use scare tactics, but they do not care about freedom of speech because if these Republican senators actually cared about freedom of speech and overreach, then they would have actually done something and gotten off their lazy asses and held big tech accountable for the extreme overreach of stealing an election and depriving the American people of their voices and their votes in 2020. | ||
Okay, let's go to Rand Paul. | ||
You said that Yass gave him $2,000,000. | ||
How did Yass, the limit's $5,600,000. | ||
How did Yass give him $2,000,000? | ||
Was this into a PAC or a Super PAC? | ||
Yeah, so this was in support of his campaign and his PAC in 2015, I believe. | ||
You can look this up. | ||
I posted the actual receipt and the document on my X account. | ||
But yeah, obviously it would have to have been to a PAC since the max And so, it doesn't matter though, okay? | ||
We already know that even though there's not supposed to be coordination between PACs and campaigns, that there's coordination taking place between PACs and campaigns, okay? | ||
We weren't born yesterday. | ||
We all know how this works. | ||
And so, the same thing with Mike Lee. | ||
He's accepting donations as well. | ||
And if you pull up my ex account, you can see I've posted this. | ||
This is not gossip. | ||
This is not hearsay. | ||
This is not me just, you know, making something up. | ||
I think that it is wildly inappropriate for members of the United States Congress and Senate to come out so strongly and say that they are opposed to a TikTok ban without also disclosing the fact, for the sake of transparency, that TikTok's largest investor, billionaire Trump hater Jeffrey Yass, who is a large donor to the Club for China Growth, Club for No Growth, | ||
gave $25 million to Club for Growth last year alone, financed Ron DeSantis' Super PAC and the Club for Growth PAC that was running anti-Trump PACs less than two months ago. | ||
Like, this is a guy that we want to trust. | ||
Why? | ||
Who cares about his financial interests? | ||
We need to ban TikTok. | ||
This was a Trump campaign promise. | ||
If you were able to give some advice to the President about your concern about walking into a trap here like the Russiagate, what would be your advice to President Trump? | ||
You're one of his strongest defenders, so what would be your advice? | ||
I would say don't fall for it, okay? | ||
This is going to be used to impeach President Trump in a second term. | ||
What you're going to have happen here, Steve, is you're going to have President Trump potentially accept a very large amount of money from Club for Growth. | ||
That money is probably going to come from TikTok CCP compromised investor Jeffrey Yass. | ||
Then they're going to be on the record saying, oh, Trump supports a TikTok ban. | ||
Oh, wait, wait, Trump is now reversing his support for a TikTok ban because he's receiving all of this money from the Club for Growth from Jeffery Ass. | ||
They're going to say that it is a pass-through bribe. | ||
From the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
And that's why Mitch McConnell is supporting people like, like, like Sheehy in Montana and all of these, you know, anti-Trump, originally anti-Trump candidates for the Senate because they're setting President Trump up for an impeachment and a conviction, okay? | ||
An impeachment and conviction in the United States Senate when he is elected because they know that there is no stopping Donald Trump. | ||
So I would say either take the money and support a TikTok ban or don't take the money And then just, you know, stay neutral. | ||
But he did promise his base that he was going to ban TikTok. | ||
And I will say that he was actively campaigning and attacking Ron DeSantis this election season for Ron DeSantis accepting money from Jeffrey Yass and his ties to TikTok. | ||
And it just seems like the position is now changing only because Club for Growth is, you know, waving money like a You know, like a rich guy in a strip club in front of President Trump and all of his advisors, okay? | ||
And I'm not trying to be disrespectful. | ||
I love President Trump. | ||
I support President Trump. | ||
But I don't work for President Trump, right? | ||
It's not like someone's going to fire me for what I'm saying right now. | ||
I was supposed to work for President Trump, and, well, we all saw what happened there, how, you know, people decided to leak the contents of my private meeting to The New York Times, and then Marjorie Trader Greene, as I like to call her, sabotaged that. | ||
I'm on the outside. | ||
I can say whatever the hell I want to say, and I'm going to say what I want to say, because I'm actually fighting to protect President Trump, and I don't want to see President Trump get set up and accused of accepting a bribe from China. | ||
They are definitely going to look for any aspect at all to impeach President Trump. | ||
There's no doubt about that, if they take the House. | ||
Loomer, you're putting together a documentary. | ||
What's the social media? | ||
Where do people get to your podcast? | ||
Where do they find all your content? | ||
Yeah, I just got back from Panama, and I have a documentary coming out. | ||
It's called The Great Replacement. | ||
I have the trailer that I sent your production team, so hopefully you'll be able to play it. | ||
But people can actually fund the documentary cost by going to givecengo.com slash thegreatreplacement. | ||
We need to raise $100,000 for the operational and production costs. | ||
This movie is going to be transformative, Steve. | ||
I really do believe that this has the ability to open people's eyes and convert people into Trump supporters and to really show them how the United States government is behind the invasion by financing it with our own taxpayer dollars. | ||
And so, I'm going to be releasing it, hopefully, within the next month and a half or two months. | ||
But, you know, I need to raise the funds, of course. | ||
It's a grassroots operation. | ||
But you saw firsthand my reporting was pretty impactful, right, from the Darien Gap. | ||
And I put myself in danger, right, exposing myself to Venezuelan gangbangers, the same type of gangbangers that raped and killed Lake and Riley. | ||
And I went out there and I did this because people deserve to know the truth. | ||
And I'm happy to do it any day, because we're going to make America great again, Steve. | ||
We didn't have that problem when President Trump was president. | ||
I'll tell you, you didn't have the PLA Fighting Age males coming up from Darien Gap through Panama. | ||
Loomer, thank you very much. | ||
Laura Loomer, always insightful. | ||
We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
When we return, we have a huge announcement here on the boardroom. | ||
We've got Dr. Peter Navarro is actually in the war room. | ||
He's going to make a short commercial break. | ||
Make sure, A, times of turbulence. | ||
What's a hedge for your financial condition? | ||
It's gold. | ||
Make sure you go to birchgold.com slash ban and check it out today. | ||
Short break, Dr. Navarro next. | ||

Create the framework for a new transitional political council. | |
The United States is sending in more reinforcements. | ||
The U.S. | ||
military deploying the elite marine team called the fast or fleet anti-terrorism security team. | ||
That team being sent to Haiti to help protect the U.S. | ||
embassy in the capital as the country's political structure Remains uncertain. | ||
Over the last several weeks, Haiti saw a surge in gang violence, demanding the Prime Minister to step aside, which he did finally agree to do yesterday. | ||
However, that may not be the end to this revolt. | ||
Gang leaders are now saying they want a seat at the table when it comes to decisions being made about the country's political future. | ||
I mean, if it turns to policy, and I think everyone who has this hopes at some point it will, Biden certainly has The majority, big pluralities of public support for where he stands. | ||
unidentified
|
Trump can't say the same thing. | |
No, that's exactly right. | ||
Many of Trump and the Republican positions are highly unpopular this cycle, which is why you see Donald Trump resort to lying and in a lot of interviews. | ||
But I think the way Joe Biden has wrapped that neatly, you played the line earlier from the State of the Union of all the powerful lines. | ||
I think the most powerful line was when he said you can't love your country only when you win. | ||
And here's why. | ||
That is not Joe Biden trying to litigate Donald Trump's conspiracy theories January 6th, the November election, on whether or not Donald Trump's a liar, or re-litigate the facts. | ||
He's actually litigating it about Donald Trump's patriotism. | ||
If you can't love your country unless you're in power, that's a question of your patriotism. | ||
And I think why that thread works with policy issues as well is this. | ||
It is unpatriotic to try to take away somebody's franchise, either by stealing their vote in the 20 election by trying to quiet it, or by voter suppression laws that you're pushing in all 50 states. | ||
I can't take Jolly anymore. | ||
I don't know how a failed Republican congressman gets prime time all the time on their biggest shows. | ||
This one being one of my favorite, Nicole Wallace. | ||
Peter Navarro is with us. | ||
Peter, before I get to Trump's patriotism and policies, because this is why we cut this clip for you, I've got to ask you about TikTok. | ||
You were there originally. | ||
You were one of the architects of the original TikTok proposal, which was quite simple. | ||
Take the algorithm and shut it down. | ||
It's a pre-kinetic information war device. | ||
Your thoughts today on this vote? | ||
Steve, I was in the White House, I was in the Situation Room. | ||
What I think people need to understand is India's example. | ||
When China, Communist China, made yet again another military incursion into India, the Trump of India, Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister there, overnight shut down more than 40 companies like TikTok in India. Just overnight, boom, done. WeChat, | ||
TikTok, just go on down. And the reason he did that so decisively was simply because whenever China has these kinds of applications embedded and infiltrated into our communication system, they are effectively Spy tools. | ||
And, you know, it's not just TikTok. | ||
I mean, everybody's, like, focused on TikTok. | ||
WeChat's just as bad. | ||
Look, we have to have an adult discussion. | ||
I was fascinated by Laura Loomer's outing of the big donor funneling money through the club through growth there. | ||
And the politics, I mean, Steve, it's... | ||
It's labyrinthine here. | ||
I mean, this Club for Growth, people need to get that on the radar screen because there is every bit as dangerous as anything on the left, and this is the kind of havoc and chaos that they create. | ||
But I'll tell you what, I mean, American soldiers have died in the Horn of Africa because they were carrying on their cell phones applications that could track them, okay? | ||
Yeah, that's subsequently been banned. | ||
Like, soldiers can't do that anymore. | ||
But yeah, I had a chapter in my book, Steve. | ||
It's like, it's 10 p.m. | ||
at night. | ||
Does TikTok know where your kid is? | ||
That's the problem. | ||
That's the problem. | ||
They know where you are. | ||
So let's see what happens as the boss says. | ||
We've got a bigger announcement to get to. | ||
But was she too harsh on Rand Paul and Mike Lee, who are two of the biggest civil libertarians in the Senate, and are making the case that you're giving the government more power? | ||
In fact, you're potentially giving Biden what he wants is the ability to do what he wants on social media. | ||
Or was she correct in saying, hey, these guys didn't lift a finger to protect President Trump? | ||
Well, I think it's a legitimate fear, Steve, and I think one of the factors that went into Donald Trump's calculus in this whole thing was his concern that this is the camel's nose under the tent for the government to go after things like True Social. | ||
And to kind of shut him down. | ||
And we know that the Biden regime will do anything they can to muzzle us, imprison us, and everything in between. | ||
But yeah, I would differentiate strongly between Rand Paul and Mike Lee. | ||
I mean, Rand Paul, he's a pure form, right? | ||
He's the purest form of libertarian. | ||
He's always been true to his ideology. | ||
Mike Lee, that's a different cat, and he was problems during the Trump administration on issues like tariffs and trade policy, and I never got any warm and fuzzy from Mike Lee with respect to MAGA and Trump. | ||
Okay, let's talk about now, you've come out, we're making a big announcement today. | ||
We're launching with Don Jr.' 's publishing company. | ||
Here's what it was. | ||
Navarra's worked on this for about a year, and this was to make sure that MAGA and other people kind of understood President Trump's policies and what they mean from a policy perspective. | ||
You've come out with a book, The New MAGA Deal. | ||
It's by Don Jr.' 's publishing company. | ||
You buried the lead there. | ||
the news. | ||
I think his name is Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
And I love the foreword. | ||
It's better than the book in a way, because it's got a lot of class going back to 2016 about how I kind of was born into the Trump administration. | ||
But be that as it may, I think it's called The New MAGA Deal. | ||
You can go to newmagadeal.com and go right to the publisher to get some information about it. | ||
But the subtitle is just as informative because it's called The Deplorables Guide to Trump's Policies for 2024. | ||
And Steve, what I'm trying to do, my mission in this book, and you're right, I worked on it for a year, and we've got like Ten great contributors, former folks who were in the Trump administration shoulder-to-shoulder with me, David Bernhardt, you got Russ Vogt, who you have on the show all the time, Greg Autry, my space guy, Frank Gaffney, they just run down the list. | ||
There's really high-quality folks focusing on this, but my mission in the book really Is to inoculate MAGA, which Biden has tried to turn into a four-letter word, against all these nonsensical charges that are made by the left, and really explain what we stand for. | ||
And I go back to the DNA of the original 2016 campaign, where I was like the economic trade advisor, and we had a way and a vision To create prosperity in others like me, we were a small number, whether Stephen Miller on the border or others like Flynn on national security in China, we had a vision. | ||
Hang on a second. | ||
The Christmas of 2019, the year of 2019 before the bioweapon hit us, those three years, that peace and prosperity just wasn't because Trump waved a magic wand. | ||
This is what the left and the mainstream, they say they're so serious. | ||
They're not serious people. | ||
The thought that went into that and how the policies were linked together. | ||
Is the most sophisticated. | ||
You take the Bush, you take Obama, you take all this crap that buried this nation. | ||
Trump gave you three years of peace and prosperity because these policies were not just well thought through, they were well thought through about how they interlinked together. | ||
Peter Navarro. | ||
Yeah, it's what I call the Iron MAGA triangle principles. | ||
You know, Steve, it's the fair trade, it's the end to endless wars, and the secure borders. | ||
I mean, this is the heart and soul of MAGA, and the policies like Buy American, Hire American, and the safe third nation kind of thing, were all implementations of these policies. | ||
Now, the punchline I was trying to get to, as | ||
As detailed and sophisticated as we had policies in 2016 going into the administration that were immediately implemented through executive orders and brought this country on parallel peace, prosperity, and security by the greatest president in modern history, what we have now is an even greater sophisticated and textured | ||
Types of policies which will be necessary to tackle all the crises that we're facing, whether it's on the border, whether it's with the Russia, China, Iran, North Korea issue, whether it's the fiscal cliff that Russ Vought on this show talks a lot about driving off, and you've been on top of. | ||
And what I'm trying to do for MAGA Nation here, The Deplorables Guide, NewMAGADeal.com, what I'm trying to do, Steve, is to provide people with the information to know why it's important to vote for Donald Trump, why we need him back in office, and also when they encounter people out there who say, you know, MAGA is this, MAGA is that, you know, the whole Biden spin. | ||
It's like people can say, no, no, no, no. | ||
These policies make America great again. | ||
Policies. | ||
They work. | ||
We've seen it. | ||
First four years of Donald Trump. | ||
Peace, prosperity, security. | ||
And they will work again. | ||
And here's how Donald Trump is going to do it. | ||
And so there's, you know, there's over 35 chapters in the book. | ||
Every option, every policy we look at. | ||
Hang on, you're gonna stick around, okay? | ||
I'll hold you through this break just for a couple minutes. | ||

|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
Okay, Navarro, this is 35 chapters. | ||
You go through every different aspect of Trump's policies, from national security to economics, all of it. | ||
Audience, this was done for over a year, taken with the top people to drill down. | ||
So that you have a guidebook. | ||
President Trump talks about policies a lot in the rallies, but it kind of gets buried, and people are having a great time. | ||
And President Trump, quite frankly, going off the glass and, you know, giving his commentary of the news of the day, right? | ||
I call it going Mortsal, which people remember. | ||
But there's a lot of policy in his speeches. | ||
This actually takes the policies of the first term and the speeches Puts it in, you get a good map of where we're gonna go in the second term. | ||
So this is a must-read, a must-get. | ||
It's a great Mother's Day gift, Father's Day gift. | ||
It's from the winning team publishing company of Don Jr. | ||
and his team, Sergio Agor and the team. | ||
It's newmagadeal.com is where you go. | ||
Go immerse yourself in this, but order this already. | ||
Pre-order now for Mother's Day and Father's Day. | ||
Navarro, of course, you and I are like brothers, and I gotta tell you, Navarro He's one of those guys, he's always got to do it his way. | ||
I mean, I'm a hard head, but he's the super hard head. | ||
Most famous people go to prison, go to prison, and write their book in prison. | ||
You write your book, and then you go to prison. | ||
Why do you always have to do things differently, Dr. Navarro? | ||
Steve, what do we do here on The War Room? | ||
We're Wayne Gretzky of political and financial analysis. | ||
We skate to where the puck's gonna be, baby. | ||
We don't skate to where the puck is. | ||
We skate to where the puck's gonna be. | ||
And look, I saw this. | ||
I saw it in the 2022 cycle, Steve, when Biden, with his blood-red speech, went after MAGA. | ||
And you can see, and morning Joe, whoever, they're trying to betray MAGA as a four-letter word. | ||
And look, I'm not having any part of that. | ||
What we're going to do in this book, NewMAGADeal.com, NewMAGADeal.com, we show, we show exactly how MAGA policies, President Trump's policies, will once again | ||
I was very honored to have President Trump give us a really good shout-out today for the book, and his endorsement blurb is prominently featured on the back cover. | ||
But what we did, Steve, is carefully go through all the speeches he's doing, and right up to the point of finishing the book, going to the website, reviewing the policies, looking at the videos, and making sure that everything we had was up to date and consistent with how the president is going to govern in his second term. | ||
And I think, again, MAGA deplorables. | ||
Read this book. | ||
It will help you talk about MAGA to the non-believers, and they are non-believers because they don't understand the facts and the analysis. | ||
And it will also allow you to see why it's so important in the canon of Bannon, action, action, action. | ||
You've got to get involved, folks. | ||
You've got to get involved. | ||
If they can come for me, they can come for you, and they're coming for me on Tuesday. | ||

Let's get it done. | ||
You're going to love this. | ||
Okay, brother. | ||
Thank you so much. | ||
We're going to be back on tomorrow morning. | ||
We're also going to do a bunch of analysis. | ||
Hopefully we have Mike Davis about what the law fair is happening down in Georgia. | ||
Peter, fantastic. | ||
Great job in the book. | ||
Thank you for coming over to the War Room. | ||

You consider the fact that South Carolina's track record on bringing major projects into this state has a winning record and therefore, again, commerce should be listened to rather than those people back in your district that may not have ever brokered a deal, may not understand what it means of being a project, may not understand economic incentives. | |
So what you're suggesting is we should listen to the people back home in your district rather than the people at commerce that have been successful at bringing these mega deals to South Carolina. | ||
Mr. Rutherford, I don't think that you could have espoused a philosophy that disagrees more fundamentally than me. | ||
I completely disagree with you, and I think that you believe what you just said. | ||
But no, I 100% am going to listen to the people back home who I represent in this house. | ||
And you should listen to the 40,000 people in your area and not the bureaucrats at Commerce, and not the lobbyists, and not the multi-billion dollar international corporations. | ||
You should listen to your constituents like I am. | ||
So yes, I will always fall back on the common sense of the wonderful people from Taylor's and Greenville Eastside far more than I will ever listen to. | ||
Unelected bureaucrats, other representatives in here who have been here for far too long and have maybe managed a whole lot of these deals, and far more than I will ever listen to any member out there. | ||
What? | ||
This is what Peter Navarro wrote this book about. | ||
This is what the Trump revolution really is. | ||
Adam Morgan joins us now. | ||
What was that throwdown about? | ||
That was about as dramatic and intense as anything I've seen in a long time. | ||
Set the stage for us. | ||
What was going on? | ||
unidentified
|
Well, the House of Representatives decided to give $1.3 billion of taxpayer money in incentives and even taxpayer cash to Volkswagen to come and make electric vehicles, which are totally propped up by Biden subsidies, in a failing electric vehicle market. | |
They wanted to give all this cash to bring them to South Carolina. | ||
And my constituents overwhelmingly said, hey, that's a terrible idea. | ||
It's crony capitalism. | ||
Vote no, it's going to a total different area of the state. | ||
It's not gonna benefit us at all. | ||
It's just gonna be our tax money. | ||
And so I just simply went up to the well and was explaining why I was voting no and why I think South Carolina needs to stop with corporate welfare and crony capitalism. | ||
Like stick to core government functions, roads, school, public safety. | ||
Stop picking winners and losers in the private sector. | ||
That's not what conservatives do. | ||
And it literally set the chamber on fire. | ||
I mean, the Democrats, the Uniparty, the Democrats, the Republicans, they all started going at me and trying to question me. | ||
And you saw what happened. | ||
He actually said the quiet part out loud. | ||
The Uniparty has disdain for the common man, for our actual constituents. | ||
These are representatives saying, oh, the people back home, they're not smart enough to understand, you know, how business works. | ||
We need to trust unelected bureaucrats in the Commerce Department. | ||
They understand. | ||
Let's listen to them and, you know, basically forget your constituents. | ||
And you heard me. | ||
I literally couldn't contain it. | ||
I was so annoyed and just flabbergasted that people actually think this way. | ||
And I called him on the carpet for it. | ||
Let me when Nikki Haley, I remember she came on an interview to be to the United Nations. | ||
She bragged about the businesses she had brought over from Germany and from Europe to South Carolina. | ||
There's also other things about the defense industry, all of it. | ||
Don't they? | ||
Isn't the argument that with the tax breaks you give them and the cash subsidies you give them, that they create so many high paying jobs and those high paying jobs create, you know, the corner drugstore and the coffee shop and the boutiques in these towns that that net net It creates a lot more value for the folks in South Carolina than it costs. | ||
Do you buy that argument, or are you opposed to that argument? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, I completely reject that argument. | |
First of all, in this instance, they were actually using taxpayer cash out of the reserve fund and handing it to the company. | ||
So you were literally taking money that was taken from families and from other businesses, you were taxing them and handing it out to a favored corporation because they were paying to have lobbyists in the lobby telling us that this was a great idea. | ||
Secondly, why are we giving tax breaks to certain companies and not others? | ||
It's literally the government picking winners and losers. | ||
It's socialism. | ||
And so yeah, I just categorically rejected. | ||
Government does not create jobs. | ||
The private sector does. | ||
We need to get the government out of as many arenas of our lives and just let the people actually be great. | ||
I mean, that's what's gonna make America great again, is the people. | ||
President Trump knows that, and we need more people in elected office who are willing to fight for that, because it's core Republican principles, conservative principles, that are worth defending and worth fighting for. | ||
It's one of the reasons I'm running for Congress. | ||
I think we need more people who are willing to fight on that bigger stage, because the truth is, there's a swamp in all 50 states, and the biggest swamp of them all is in D.C. | ||
And we gotta have people who are willing to fight every day. | ||
And that's why I'm running. | ||
Y'all should check me out. | ||
Voteadamorgan.com. | ||
Adam, social media, besides the website, where do people follow you? | ||
Because you're a man on fire. | ||
You're a man of principle, I can tell. | ||
I'm sure there's a real minority in the legislature down there. | ||
So where do people go to find more about you? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, on X, it's rep Adam Morgan. | |
And this really all happened because of Matt Gaetz. | ||
I have him to blame. | ||
He heard I was running, knew I was chair of the Freedom Caucus. | ||
We've shut down pediatric transgender clinics, and I've been able to bring transparency to the budget. | ||
So he went on my X and found that video. | ||
And tweeted it, and then overnight it's kind of gone viral with millions of views. | ||
And yeah, I appreciate the attention. | ||
But isn't it sad, Steve, that I went viral for saying what every single elected official should already be thinking and saying? | ||
Represent your people, not unelected bureaucrats and special interests. | ||
It's that simple. | ||
But evidently that's shocking, and we need more people in public office who will do that. | ||
We definitely need people in Congress, brother, no doubt. | ||
One more time, where do people go to find out more about you? | ||

Appreciate it. | ||

|
Thanks for having me on. | |
Young man on fire. | ||
I love it. | ||
Doesn't get any better. | ||
Mo, I asked you to jump on here. | ||
I know you and Grace have been working on a thousand things today. | ||
I'm very upset. | ||
I don't know fully what's going on, but help me out here. | ||
Did your beloved West Point take duty, honor, country out of the motto, out of the pledge, everything they've got? | ||
Did somebody take that out of West Point? | ||
Duty, honor, country? | ||
You are correct. | ||
The superintendent issued a statement on 11 March stating basically that the previous mission statement would be changing. | ||
After what he said, a year of going back and forth with senior leaders at West Point and stakeholders of West Point, they decided to change the mission statement to reflect and bind the Academy to the Army. | ||
We see, as you have said many times on the show, and we've heard from other guests, the military has become woke. | ||
They're pushing a woke agenda. | ||
And this is just solidifying that the academy agrees with that agenda. | ||
So the previous mission statement said, to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate is a commissioned leader of character, committed to the values of duty, honor, country, and prepared for a career of professional excellence and service to the nation as an officer in the United States Army. | ||
And the mission statement that is now on West Point's website, they have gotten rid of The previous mission statement on all parts of their website and it now says, to build, educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets to be commissioned leaders of character committed to the Army values and ready for a lifetime of service to the Army and nation. | ||
And I want to point out that two of the Army values are duty and honor. | ||
And they're trying to say that country falls under loyalty. | ||
I'm of the mindset, don't fix If it's not broken, you don't need to fix it. | ||
There was no reason to change this mission statement. | ||
West Point supports a woke agenda. | ||
Sources I have at West Point have said that senior leaders are all about pushing this woke agenda and the cadets do not align with the senior leaders of West Point. | ||
I mean, this is pretty shocking. | ||
Duty, honor, country is almost mythical. | ||
It's known from the beginning of West Point all the way down to the current age of the sacrifice of the graduates of West Point. | ||
How could they possibly take that out? | ||
I mean, I'm kind of stunned by this. | ||
Do you have any observations? | ||
I think, like I said, pushing the woke agenda and they want to get rid of anything that reflects that. | ||
Like you said, duty, honor, country is Etched in stone at West Point so they will have to remove that but we've seen the senior leadership Push this woke agenda get rid of different monuments at West Point take away or rename barracks Because they want to push this agenda. So I have a feeling that the cadets will not stand Hang on one second. I'm holding to the break | ||
Your host Stephen K. Bound You There's turbulence everywhere You know, this thing about going after our institutions, our most beloved institutions, that's part of the instability. | ||
That's a classic neo-Marxist Red Guard cultural revolution. | ||
You've seen that up at West Point. | ||
This is why it's a time of turbulence. | ||
It's not just financial turbulence. | ||
It's not economic or geopolitical. | ||
It's political, it's cultural, societal, civilizational. | ||
That's the fight we're in. | ||
You guys get that. | ||
That's right. | ||
This is why gold, I don't give personal financial advice here, right? | ||
I don't give personal financial advice to people close to me. | ||
You got to go figure that on your own. | ||
To me financial advice is something very personal. | ||
Go figure it out on your own. | ||
Enough information out there. | ||
You can ask enough people. | ||
But we do talk about macro all the time. | ||
This is why I say go over to birchgold.com and hook up with Philip Patrick and the team and just ask them what are these converging forces that are causing the de-dollarization movement? | ||
What are the converging forces that are taking the global south, the BRICS nations, and they're trying to break out of The post-war international rules-based order because they know it doesn't work for them of course MAGA knows it doesn't work for them either So one of the reasons President Trump's been taking the hammer to it to either make it work or change into something new But go to birchgold.com Slash bandit get the information talk to Philip Patrick team. | ||
Why gold every couple of days hits another all-time high Okay, Mo something And you know your dad's instincts are pretty good. | ||
Something's not right with this thing. | ||
I don't understand this. | ||
This is not like some motto of some cook. | ||
This is duty, honor, country. | ||
This was the theme of MacArthur's great speech when he came back, when he was right about Asia and he was right about the Korean War. | ||
He was right about what was going to happen in Asia. | ||
He was right about these communist dictatorships. | ||
Duty, honor, country is something that resonates down through the ages. | ||
It is bizarre that in a time like now when the Army's under so much pressure, and this whole thing about CRT and DEI and ESG and being woke and all that, particularly West Point, which has always been one of the finest, if not the finest, academy for officer training. | ||
Yes, and I just want to point out that the superintendent tried to justify this change by stating that the mission statement has changed numerous times in the last century. | ||
However, the last mission statement, the one I read first, has been the mission statement since 1998. | ||
So, for the last 26 years, this has been the mission statement, and duty, honor, country has been edged into that. | ||
But yes, I will do a deeper dive and come back and report. | ||
What is your social media? | ||
You can follow me on Twitter and Getter at Maureen underscore Bannon, and also on Instagram at RealMaureenBannon. | ||
I come in very hot on all of those platforms. | ||
Nothing compared to Grace Chung, Queen of the Trolls. | ||
But you do come in hot. | ||
Sometimes too hot on that. | ||
Thank you so much. | ||
Look forward to having you back in the next couple days. | ||
We've got to get to the bottom of this. | ||
Duty, honor, country. | ||
Eliminated from West Point's mission statement. | ||
Think about that for a second. | ||
Just stunning. | ||
Mike Lindell. | ||
We had the Voss guys on earlier today. | ||
They are heroes. | ||
They're going to get crushed, I can tell you personally. | ||
Now, I believe it's going to happen. | ||
But people have to understand, and this is one of the things about bravery, and this is why courage is contagious from President Trump and what he did from coming back from Mar-a-Lago when they stole the election, right? | ||
And he knew he wanted to come back and now get the Republican nomination last night to have the Georgia thing collapsing around us right now. | ||
But his courage has been contagious all the way down to the deck plates. | ||
And those folks in Wisconsin are incredibly courageous. | ||
I just want to give a hat tip to Matthew and the entire team up there. Hope to have them back on. | ||
Any guidance for that? Do you have any guidance for those guys? Well, the guidance as far as they've all been courageous there and you're right. | ||
Courage is contagious. | ||
And I'll tell you what, everybody should follow what they've done up there in Wisconsin. | ||
These guys didn't give up. | ||
They just kept going at this big blocker, Robin Voss. | ||
They didn't give up. | ||
And everything that's going on now in our country, including the Supreme Court case tomorrow, everybody. | ||
That case is getting—we're putting it out there tomorrow. | ||
This comes from people that never gave up. | ||
You're talking lawyers and experts and ever—they didn't give up because someone said, oh, you're not going to get it there. | ||
You know, this Judge Rukev kicked it out on standing. | ||
And this—we're trying to save our country, and we will save our country. | ||
And you're right, Steve. | ||
Our great, real President Donald Trump, he's—you google Courage, and there's a picture of him. | ||
And you know what? | ||
He's what everybody should be doing. | ||
We should all be courageous right now because we get one shot at this, everybody. | ||
One shot. | ||
And I'll tell you that you all need to go to lyndaleplan.com and all of you. | ||
We need to spread tomorrow this Supreme Court case. | ||
That needs to be spread out there and we need help. | ||
We need your help. | ||
You're not going to see this on Fox News. | ||
You're not going to see all the new evidence there on Newsmax. | ||
You're going to see it right here. | ||
What time are you putting it out? | ||
I want to get everybody alert. | ||
We're going to have you on the morning show, but what time does it actually hit that we can read it? | ||
It sounds like they're going to file it somewhere around 6 p.m. | ||
Eastern time, give or take, and the media is already mocking me and attacking, going, Michael Dell said he was going to deliver it in person at the Supreme Court. | ||
I can't help it that all the lawyers and say, hey, that'd be a little dangerous. | ||
I haven't been there since January 7th of 2021. | ||
So this is the way to go. | ||
But we do need all of you to help get the word out that it's going to be there. | ||
We have to put pressure on them. | ||
If the Supreme Court really looks at this evidence, they are going to pull it in and vote 9-0. | ||
It's just like they did in Colorado. | ||
This is a nonsensical thing. | ||
This is absolutely, you look at it, you're going to go, wow. | ||
You know, and this is all new stuff. | ||
This is not something anybody's ever seen. | ||
