| This is what you're fighting for. | ||
| I mean, every day you're out there. | ||
| What they're doing is blowing people off. | ||
| If you continue to look the other way and shut up, then the oppressors, the authoritarians, get total control and total power. | ||
| Because this is just like in Arizona. | ||
| This is just like in Georgia. | ||
| It's another element that backs them into a corner and shows their lies and misrepresentations. | ||
| This is why this audience is going to have to get engaged. | ||
| As we've told you, this is the fight. | ||

All this nonsense, all this spin, they can't handle the truth. | |
| War Room Battleground. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Welcome back to the 6 o'clock hour. | ||
| It is Tuesday, 7 May, Year of the Lord 2024. | ||
| I'm honored to be joined by my wingman, Natalie Winters, here in Palm Beach at the Real America's Voice studios. | ||
| Thank you for having me. | ||
| It's always fun when I get to be a co-host. | ||
| Get to be a co-host. | ||
| I'm taking back her own show that he does for us. | ||
| It looks like every other day at 5. | ||
| We've got a lot to get through today. | ||

|
Let me go. | |
| I got Mike Davis and Cash. | ||
| Big breaking news. | ||
| I gotta start with Mike. | ||
| Mike, you were putting up tweets today that are We can't even put him up on the Family Hour because you were coming in a little hot. | ||
| Talk to us about your frustration. | ||
| You know, we had John Solomon up. | ||
| You've got things breaking all over the place, not just with New York or the Marchand trying to put Trump in jail for the unconstitutional gag order. | ||
| You've got all this breaking news coming out of Florida with Judge Cannon. | ||
| What is your increasing level of frustration? | ||
| Well, I think the biggest frustration is that we have not been on offense, and we have not been on offense For the last 22 months since the unnecessary, unprecedented, unlawful raid on the office of former president in Mar-a-Lago for presidential records that President Trump was allowed to have under the Presidential Records Act. | ||
| And we did not put up a fight, particularly House Republicans, who actually have subpoena power, who actually can hold hearings, who actually can have staff depositions. | ||
| We did not put up a fight, and these Democrats, prosecutors, Joe Biden, Merrick Garland, Deputy White House Counsel to Biden, Jonathan Sue, Matthew Colangelo from the Biden Justice Department, the number three office, Alvin Bragg, Big Tish James, Big Fanny Willis, the Arizona AG, they are walking through an open door because these Republican politicians have not put up any resistance whatsoever Hang on a second. | ||
| of resistance whatsoever. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But hang, hang, hang, hang, hang on a second. | |
| Hang on a second. | ||
| I want to give your background because there's got to be some reason that I don't get. | ||
| You did a magnificent job. | ||
| I mean, we essentially wouldn't have Gorsuch or Kavanaugh unless you were intimately involved in the process of getting these people confirmed as Supreme Court justices, which is like the Super Bowl of confirmations, and it gets nasty. | ||
| You saw this in Kavanaugh. | ||
| Given the fight and the people that hunkered down to get Kavanaugh through, Why is that? | ||
| Why the same? | ||
| Why you don't see a fight? | ||
| Because the Republicans can fight and fight hard sometimes. | ||
| Why does that not carry over into this vast criminal conspiracy against President Trump? | ||
| I saw it in Gorsuch. | ||
| We were organized day one in Kavanaugh when we got our backs to the wall. | ||
| We punched through it because of people like you. | ||
| Why are you not seeing that now when the stakes, I would argue, are actually higher? | ||
| I would say this, the dirty little secret of the Kavanaugh fight is there weren't fighters in that fight. | ||
| It was President Trump. | ||
| It was Don McGahn. | ||
| It was Mark Paoletta. | ||
| It was Mitch McConnell, believe it or not. | ||
| It was Chuck Grassley, my former boss as the chairman. | ||
| Of the Senate Judiciary Committee at the time, and there were very few others, right? | ||
| It was a pretty lonely fight at that time, but there was no way in hell that I was gonna let this MeToo mob, these Democrat activists, go after Kavanaugh for something that he supposedly did 35 | ||
| years ago when he was a teenager, which didn't happen. We proved it didn't happen. | ||
| There was no way in hell, even if it were true what Kavanaugh did 35 years ago when | ||
| he was 17 years old or 16 years old, there was no way in hell I was going to let the | ||
| left take down a Supreme Court nominee over that. There was no way in hell I was going | ||
| to let them turn the presumption of innocence into the presumption of guilt. | ||
| There was no way in hell we were going to lose the Supreme Court. | ||
| It was so much bigger than Kavanaugh. | ||
| If we lost the Kavanaugh fight, we would have lost the Supreme Court. | ||
| We would have lost the Senate. | ||
| We would have lost the presidency. | ||
| We would have lost the country. | ||
| There was no way I was going to let that go down. | ||
| And I was a crucial fighter, not to toot my own horn, in dragging Kavanaugh across the finish line. | ||
| And I'll tell you what, it was Very eye-opening for me to see a lot of these conservative Republican politicians who pretend like they're warriors on Twitter and on Fox News were not exactly warriors during that fight. | ||
| So my advice to Republicans is you better toughen up. | ||
| It's time to man up. | ||
| If you don't step up right now, Hang on, but I want to go back to this because this is a revelation. | ||
| We've had many revelatory moments in today's first day in Palm Beach. | ||
| Hit rewind on that. | ||
| You're telling me that it came down to a handful of Don McGahn, obviously President Trump, Don McGahn. | ||
| Even Mitch McConnell, Mark Paoletta, yourself, obviously you were the tip of the spear. | ||
| You're saying it was a handful, you're saying the bulk of the Republican Party, particularly the people that are performative on Fox as fighters, all ran for the hills when these revelations came out on Kavanaugh and wanted to throw in the towel and go to the next candidate? | ||
| One hundred percent, including the people who made a lot of money off of these Supreme Court fights, wanted to run for the hills. | ||
| And I'll tell you what, it was Chuck Grassley, my boss, who was the rock. | ||
| If he wobbled even a little bit, Kavanaugh would have gone down, and he would have gone down six weeks before The 2018 midterm elections, and we would have lost the Senate. | ||
| We would have lost the White House. | ||
| We would have lost the Supreme Court. | ||
| We would have lost the country. | ||
| Instead, we fought. | ||
| And it was a lonely fight, but we fought, and we won. | ||
| And what happened that 2018 election, when Democrats won the House of Representatives, what should have been a good year for Democrats and the presidents of the opposing parties' first off-year election, We took out four Senate Democrats, four Senate Democrat incumbents, and we picked up two Senate seats overall. | ||
| And we expanded the Senate majority, which allowed us to confirm Justice Amy Coney Barrett and finish President Trump's transformation of the Supreme Court from the 5-4 left of center court to the 5-4 Clarence Thomas court. | ||
| That was President Trump's biggest and most consequential accomplishment of his first term. | ||
| That would not have happened if If President Trump, McConnell, and Grassley were not rock solid. | ||
| That three-legged stool. | ||
| So, given the team that you've got, because a lot of those are the people that you can't mention here that didn't fight for Kavanaugh, what do we need to do to go on offense? | ||
| I mean, this is a vast criminal conspiracy. | ||
| Every day there's other revelations. | ||
| Jim Jordan picks up from John Solomon's revelations yesterday. | ||
| There's good, they're sending letters, but it's not coming together as it should. | ||
| What would be your recommendation to that crowd of what has to happen? | ||
| I would say this. | ||
| The Republicans in Washington who think that this lawfare is going away, if Trump goes away, are so naive and stupid, frankly. | ||
| President Trump is simply in their way. | ||
| Remember, these are the same Democrats Prosecutors and judges and witnesses and operatives, they're going after not only Trump and his top aides like you, Steve Bannon, and Peter Navarro, who is currently sitting in jail, right? | ||
| They're going after President Trump's attorneys like John Eastman. | ||
| They're trying to disbar him and throw him in jail. | ||
| Jeff Clark, they're trying to throw in jail. | ||
| They're going after His January 6 supporters, including people who merely trespassed, trespassed onto the Capitol lawn, right? | ||
| Somehow that's worthy of the Biden Justice Department's time | ||
| while they let carjackers kill people in Washington, D.C. | ||
| So they're going after the January 6th supporters, they're going after parents outraged by gender chaos | ||
| in schools and the resulting rapes in high school bathrooms. | ||
| They're going after Christians, including little Christian ladies | ||
| praying outside of abortion clinics while they give, while the Biden Justice Department | ||
| and these Biden Democrat prosecutors like Alvin Bragg and Tish James and Fannie Willis, | ||
| while they give amnesty to these, the Biden family, the corrupt Biden family that's put over $20 million | ||
| from foreign entities into what seems like every Biden family member's bank account | ||
| except for the six-year-old granddaughter who they finally acknowledged under political pressure, | ||
| right? | ||
| You see these Biden Democrats. | ||
| giving amnesty to BLM and Antifa, the much more deadly and destructive BLM and Antifa | ||
| riots, $2 billion in damage, dozens of people killed. | ||
| They were terrorizing the Portland federal courthouse on a nightly basis. They torched | ||
| St. John's Church by the White House. They torched a Secret Service guard station. They | ||
| attacked Senator Rand Paul when he left the White House. | ||
| Nothing happens. | ||
| Look at what they're doing to these abortion industry activists and these trans terrorists | ||
| who are terrorizing Supreme Court justices and their families in their homes, sending | ||
| them to safe houses, even after the 1 a.m. | ||
| assassination attempt against Justice Kavanaugh's wife, Ashley, and their two teenage daughters. | ||
| They're giving amnesty to these trans terrorists who are torching Catholic churches. | ||
| They're giving amnesty to these Hamas supporters who are terrorizing Jewish Americans, particularly Jewish students on college campuses all across America, including right now in New York City, right? | ||
| These Hamas supporters are threatening violence and actually Committing violence against Jewish students. | ||
| They're blocking roads. | ||
| They're blocking Jews from going to class. | ||
| Jews can't walk across campus. | ||
| Jews are not safe in New York City. | ||
| But Alvin Bragg and Matthew Colangelo and these Biden Democrat operatives have President Trump sitting in a courtroom right now in week four of this bogus criminal trial. | ||
| And where the hell are these House Republicans? | ||
| Where are the subpoenas? | ||
| Where are the staff depositions? | ||
| Where are the public hearings? | ||
| They should be lighting up These prosecutors, they should be lighting up the White House for their communications with these prosecutors. | ||
| They should be lighting up. | ||
| Jonathan Sue should be testifying. | ||
| Matthew Colangelo should be testifying. | ||
| What the hell have they done? | ||
| Where is this weaponization committee that was set up more than a year ago, and what has it done? | ||
| Mike, we know Republicans aren't monolithic here in the War Room all too well, but I'm just curious, from your perspective, when you say Republicans, whether it's in the House, in the Senate, how much of the issue is the actual members themselves? | ||
| I know you worked on the Hill, you survived being a Hill staffer, but is part of the issue that the staff, right, who is surrounding these people, they also don't want to throw down? | ||
| What sort of, from the behind-the-scenes perspective, how are they holding up these processes too? | ||
| You need both a good member and a good staffer, right? | ||
| And that's the key. | ||
| Look, I went into the Senate and I broke every piece of China in the Senate and I enjoyed breaking the China every single day, right? | ||
| I think at the end after we confirmed a record number of Trump's judges, including Kavanaugh and Gorsuch, I had three hearings for lower court judges after we ran over the Democrats, ran over their puppies with our lawnmower after the Kavanaugh hearing. | ||
| I had three more hearings to rub their noses in. | ||
| If you haven't learned anything, don't use killing dog metaphors. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mike Davis is going to triple down, take out the puppies. | |
| Well, if they're Democrat puppies, watch out, because we'll run them over with our lawnmower. | ||
| But I'll say this is where Republicans, Republican members, Republican staffers, you need to understand no matter what you do, they hate you. | ||
| The Democrats hate you. | ||
| They're going to say you're racist and sexist and xenophobe and whatever the hellphobe it is, transphobe. | ||
| Who gives a damn? | ||
| Do your job and figure out what the goal is and go from A to B and don't get distracted. | ||
| That's what we did with Trump's judges in the first term. | ||
| We're going to do it again in the second term. | ||
| And do not let the Democrats phase you. | ||
| Run them over. | ||
| Peter Navarro's in prison for a misdemeanor in a federal prison. | ||
| The Bureau of Prisons won't let Gates and other members of Congress down. | ||
| Colette Peters won't let him go be interviewed in prison because he's too notorious. | ||
| He's there for a misdemeanor. | ||
| What does that tell us about this entire left-wing apparatus that's arrayed against us? | ||
| So what I would do if I were Jim Jordan is I would issue a subpoena immediately for all those Bureau of Prison Officials who say that Peter Navarro is too notorious, and I'd put their asses in a chair in front of the bright lights and grill them, and make their lives miserable, make the process the punishment. | ||
| And so they think twice about doing this kind of stuff, right? | ||
| And that's the problem. | ||
| Republicans get into this mindset that if we don't have a legal case that's wrapped in a bow and beautiful and could win at the trial and win at the court of appeals and be affirmed by the Supreme Court, it's not worth it. | ||
| No, you morons. | ||
| Use lawfare against them. | ||
| Make the process the punishment. | ||
| Make them hire lawyers. | ||
| Make their lives miserable so this lawfare, this election interference ends. | ||
| It's called the dead chicken strategy. | ||
| That's what I ran during the Kavanaugh confirmation. | ||
| And what you need to do is give Democrats, a healthy dose of their own medicine, right? | ||
| They only respect power. | ||
| They're godless. | ||
| They don't believe in God. | ||
| Their God is power on earth. | ||
| Their religion or strategy is Marxism, and their religious sects or tactics are chaos and division. | ||
| And if they don't feel power, if they don't feel financial, legal, and political pain, they're going to keep doing what they're doing. | ||
| So we need to fight back against this. | ||
| If you want to end this lawfare, you need to give them a healthy dose of their own medicine. | ||
| Last thing before I go, we're going to have Cash up here next. | ||
| I mean, kind of an explosive story in the New York Times today about the National Guard and J6. | ||
| And of course, it took them almost four years to get even the beginning of the truth out. | ||
| But their narrative is totally different than the J6 committee's narrative. | ||
| And now we know the J6 committee, it's plain to all. | ||
| That they were putting up false testimony because it wasn't structured correctly, you didn't have a ranking member, you didn't have minority counsel, you couldn't do cross-examination, so you just had people up there just spewing nonsense. | ||
| Does this New York Times story, do you think that leads you to say, we've got to somehow go back and adjudicate? | ||
| In all of this criminal conspiracy, you also have to go back and do J6 over again? | ||
| There's no question. | ||
| We need to, whether it's Attorney General Mark Paoletta or Attorney General Jeff Clark or Attorney General Ken Paxton or whoever Trump picks as his Attorney General, because everyone knows I can't get confirmed. | ||
| I'm going to be his viceroy of DC. | ||
| But I would say this, on day one, they need to open a criminal probe. | ||
| This is a conspiracy against rights by Obama, Biden, Hillary, the AG, both AGs, Obama's AG in Garland, the FBI. | ||
| Director Comey, Clapper, Brennan, there are so many involved with this criminal conspiracy to politicize and weaponize our law enforcement. | ||
| Going back to Crossfire Hurricane in 2016, leading to the Hunter Biden laptop in 2020, and now this weaponization of law enforcement. | ||
| And Intel agencies against Trump, his top aides, his lawyers, his supporters. | ||
| This is a criminal conspiracy. | ||
| It's been ongoing. | ||
| We need to open a criminal probe under 18 U.S.C. | ||
| 241 conspiracy against rights and many other federal crimes. | ||
| But that's a very serious civil rights felony. | ||
| We need to open a criminal probe, and we need to say that what Democrats like to say to us, no one is above the law. | ||
| The prosecutors aren't above the law. | ||
| These Democrat judges aren't above the law. | ||
| These witnesses aren't above the law. | ||
| Joe Biden's not above the law. | ||
| Obama's not above the law. | ||
| Hillary Clinton's not above the law. | ||
| You guys, there must be severe legal, political, and financial consequences to what these Democrats have done Article 3 project. | ||
| Where do people go? | ||
| You've got an activist page now. | ||
| People, it's got your full spectrum on what people do. | ||
| Not just knowledge and information, but also action. | ||
| to give them a healthy dose of their own medicine, the dead chicken strategy. | ||
| Article 3 Project. Where do people go? You've got an activist page now. | ||
| People, it's got your full spectrum on what people do. | ||
| Not just knowledge and information, but also action. Where do they go, Mike? | ||
| Yeah, article3project.org, article3project.org. | ||
| You can donate there, you can take action there, all of our socials on there. | ||
| And I would say to the War Room Posse, you guys are by far the most active, intelligent, and engaged audience. | ||
| I am a total media whore, as everyone knows. | ||
| The War Room Posse is by far the best audience out there. | ||
| So thank you for what you guys do every day. | ||
| Thank you for coming on and inspiring our group because they want to fight. | ||
| They just want to fight smart. | ||
| So, Mike, thank you so much. | ||
| Honored to have you on here. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Kash Patel was the Chief of Staff over at the Defense Department during those days before and after January 6th. | ||
| Let's go and play a cold open for Kash. | ||

|
We're going to bring him in. | |
| The New York Times is pushing back against criticism that the newspaper has received for its coverage of the 2024 election. | ||
| In an interview with Semaphore, Joseph Kahn responded to attacks from some on the left who say the Times' reporting is too critical of President Joe Biden and could enable Donald Trump to win back the White House. | ||
| There are so many things wrong with that right there. | ||
| There are people out there in the world, quote, who may decide based on their democratic rights to elect Donald Trump as president, Khan says. | ||
| It's not the job of the news media to prevent that from happening. | ||
| It's the job of Joe Biden and the people around Biden to prevent that from happening, to say that the threats of democracy are so great that the media is going to abandon its central role as a source ...of impartial information to help people vote. | ||
| That's essentially saying the news media should become a propaganda arm for a single candidate because we prefer that candidate's agenda. | ||
| ...seen as a center-left newspaper. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The goal is to play it straight down the middle. | |
| Talk about the frustrations that the executive editor is feeling right now. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, I think, you know, it's a moment when Democrats really want the media in their corner. | ||
| And what, you know, what a lot of people see is this basically battle over democracy. | ||
| But what's happening inside the New York Times is a sense that during particularly the summer of 2020, | ||
| they aligned themselves too much with particularly a kind of progressive wing of the Democratic Party, | ||
| on account of their staff, on account of the sort of cultural forces. | ||
| And I think Khan sees his job as pulling the institution back | ||
| from what he called excesses in that moment. | ||
| Kind of inconvenient time, perhaps, for Joe Biden for the Times to be kind of symbolically | ||
| focused on dragging itself back from that brain. | ||
| Okay, free and for. | ||
| Free tip for Mr. Khan over the New York Times. | ||
| Get a food taster. | ||
| Hire one today. | ||
| Even if you've got to pay for it yourself, because the half-life of you as editor is not going to be long. | ||
| I want to bring in Kash Patel. | ||
| Huge article today about the National Guard and J6. | ||
| Walk us through, what do you think of the piece first, and how closely is this now aligned to what reality is? | ||
| Because I notice in the piece, and Natalie, correct me if I'm wrong, they don't immediately point the finger and say, it's Trump's fault, it's Trump's fault, it's Trump's fault. | ||
| Kash Patel. | ||
| Look, this piece is about as close as the New York Times is ever going to get to truthful reporting on anything January 6th. | ||
| It unequivocally confirms what we have been saying for years, when I was Chief of Staff, that Donald Trump authorized 10-plus thousand National Guardsmen and Women days before January 6th. | ||
| Because the chain of command, as I have come on your show and discussed time and time again, was immediately initiated. | ||
| And the people that rejected that authorization of National Guard were Bowser and Pelosi. | ||
| And we'll get to the characters in the article in a second, Secretary of the Army and Major General Walker in a minute. | ||
| But what the Times article confirms to me Is that they no longer can push the narrative that Donald Trump didn't authorize the National Guard. | ||
| We have disproven their disinformation campaign. | ||
| And instead, now they are using mealy mouth words and individuals and complaining about the chain of command to say, oh, that process was slowed down. | ||
| Hang on a second. | ||
| The process was slowed down means the process was greenlit from the chain of command, which was the president and the secretary of defense, which is what I've said repeatedly as the first guy subpoenaed by the Jan Six Committee to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars. | ||
| So these guys are now just getting around to it because we have destroyed, thanks to the War Room Posse, we have absolutely leveled the farce that was the insurrection narrative. | ||
| The cudgel that they've been using to take out and kneecap Donald Trump in this election year. | ||
| And now they're going to go and play government antics and say, well, that guy said this and this guy said that. | ||
| You know who said go to the National Guard days before January 6th? | ||
| Donald Trump. | ||
| You know who said no? | ||
| Secretary of the Army, apparently in conversations with Nancy Pelosi and Mayor Bowser, they refused to accept that authorization. | ||
| How does that even work? | ||
| I'll get to the whole thing on the insurrection narrative in a second. | ||
| But how does that even work? | ||
| He's Commander-in-Chief. | ||
| You've got the Acting Secretary of Defense, Miller. | ||
| You've got yourself, the Chief of Staff over at the Pentagon. | ||
| You have others. | ||
| How does the Secretary of Army essentially get the order countermanded by Nancy Pelosi and Bowser? | ||
| How does that work? | ||
| Yeah, that's a great question. | ||
| Let me just outline how the chain of command works. | ||
| The national command authority is the president. | ||
| To the Secretary of Defense, President Trump, to Secretary of Defense Miller. | ||
| That's the National Command Authority. | ||
| It never changes. | ||
| In terms of National Guard, just for those that don't have the in-depth knowledge on it, the National Guard has separate National Guard, what we call add-a-tunk generals, tags, that run the separate National Guard bureaus across the country. | ||
| They report to the four-star tag at the office of the Secretary of Defense, where we worked. | ||
| All of those guys report to one person under the law. | ||
| The Secretary of the Army. | ||
| It's been like that forever. | ||
| The National Guard reports to the Secretary of the Army. | ||
| And so when the National Command Authority above the Secretary of the Army says, do X, Y, or Z, go to this Super Bowl event, go to this concert, go to this riot, we need National Guard, all the President and the Secretary of Defense have to do is authorize it and put it in motion. | ||
| Then it's up to the Secretary of the Army to implement those operational logistics. | ||
| And what we found out in this testimony is shocking cowardice. | ||
| By Major General Walker and the others. | ||
| Ryan McCarthy went to the media after he got the order from the President of the United States and the Secretary of Defense to go and mobilize the National Guard. | ||
| This guy stopped to take phone calls and talk to the media? | ||
| Where is the Uniform Code of Military Justices bringing up of charges For the violation, grossly, of the chain of command. | ||
| And do you know why he did it? | ||
| To answer your question, Steve? | ||
| And there's emails at the Department of Defense that prove this. | ||
| Ryan McCarthy, a Secretary of the Army, wanted to stay on into the Biden administration. | ||
| Ryan McCarthy wanted to become the Secretary of Defense in the Biden administration. | ||
| Go ahead. | ||
| Prove me wrong. | ||
| Call my bluff. | ||
| Get the emails from the Department of Defense. | ||
| And this guy was acting as a political gangster under the authorities of Mark Milley, who also wanted to save his job. | ||
| So what did those guys do? | ||
| They put out an operation to thwart the lawful commands of the chain of command from the Commander-in-Chief because it suited them. | ||
| These guys always say they live by the chain of command, except when they violate it to use it as a shield for political purposes, and no one has held them to account. | ||
| None of these guys in these articles impress me in any way, shape, or form. | ||
| They are complete cowards in uniforms. | ||
| And do you know what Major General Walker was doing? | ||
| The same thing, auditioning for a job in Nancy Pelosi's administration. | ||
| In April of 2021, Major General Walker would become the top cop for Nancy Pelosi As the Sergeant-at-Arms in the House of Representatives, are you telling me these guys in uniform weren't auditioning for political jobs and mucking up the process along the way? | ||
| And it took us three years to put this country through this much turmoil to get the truth out from supposed career military officers? | ||
| These guys are cowards and they should be brought up on charges under the UCMJ. | ||
| Cash, hang on for one second. | ||
| We're going to take a short break. | ||
| Birchgold, times of turbulence, I don't think we've seen anything yet. | ||
| I think with what's happening in the Middle East, what's happening in Ukraine, what's going to happen in the South China Sea, and that does not include what's happening here in the United States of America where you're seeing the beginning of the kinetic part of the Third World War. | ||
| Just like Mao Zedong did, as Natalie Winters informed us last week, it always starts on the college campuses where they weaponize the students. | ||
| It's happening here. | ||
| Birchgold.com slash Bannon. | ||
| Go talk to Philip Patrick and the team why gold has been a hedge for 8,000 years of mankind's history. | ||

All this nonsense, all this spin, they can't handle the truth. | |
| War Room Battleground with Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, Cash, you're a heavy-duty lawyer. | ||
| You've spent your career in national security law, prosecution, all that. | ||
| You gotta help me out here. | ||
| Trump is spending millions of dollars in this huge fiasco with Jack Smith. | ||
| There's a special counsel about the insurrection coming off of the testimony of J6. | ||
| President Trump just spent millions of dollars, and we had to go all the way to the Supreme Court to win 9-0. | ||
| In Colorado, about even being eligible to be on the ballot, oh, and that was all from a Denver judge that had hours of testimony of you and discounted it, but took the J6 report and just put it in as that he's an insurrectionist. | ||
| The whole narrative about President Trump on mourning Mika and Maitre Maddow and these people are terrible, it's the end of democracy, is Trump is an insurrectionist. | ||
| And one of the things they point to is the National Guard. | ||
| Now the New York Times, their paper, Their paper comes out with this close to definitive, you know, uh, critical path of what happened. | ||
| And it turns out Trump is kind of the good guy in ordering the National Guard. | ||
| It's all these other people that thwart him and they do it by pulling the records. | ||
| They got the, it's all from these, uh, detailed, uh, you know, um, uh, depositions they gave under oath and also from emails and other things. | ||
| And I guess the J6 committee had in various, so number one, Does this show, is there any grounds for Trump being an insurrectionist after this? | ||
| And number two, help me out here brother, does this just show what I've been saying, that they've been suppressing real information on the real story and this is why Johnson, McCarthy first and Johnson should have immediately, and we still have to, formally adjudicate the 2020 election and J6 and all of it, sir? | ||
| Yeah, look, you're right. | ||
| This is the unequivocal exoneration of Donald Trump from any insurrection narrative. | ||
| The Times is reporting in crystal clear English language that Donald Trump authorized the National Guard days before January 6th Through admission. | ||
| They're saying it through admission because they're saying Ryan McCarthy, the Secretary of the Army and others, then went and started to talk to the media and obfuscated the Commander-in-Chief's orders and lawful authority. | ||
| Well, how could they do that if Trump didn't authorize the National Guard? | ||
| And how could they do that if Trump didn't authorize the National Guard and Nancy Pelosi hadn't blocked it for two days? | ||
| Why did it happen on January 6th? | ||
| Those questions have now been answered unequivocally. | ||
| And as it speaks to Donald Trump and the evaluation of the insurrection narrative and Jack Smith, this is why Jack Smith never charged him with insurrection, because he's not guilty of insurrection. | ||
| This is why I was the lead witness in Colorado with another government gangster in a robe trying to pretend to be a judge and who discounted my testimony when I said there was no insurrection because Donald Trump authorized the National Guard days before January 6th. | ||
| It is legally and factually impossible for that to have occurred. | ||
| It is legally and factually impossible for Bowser and Pelosi to have rejected that authorization. | ||
| It is legally and factually impossible for now this new information about Secretary Ryan McCarthy and Mark Milley and others thwarting a lawful authorization from their commander-in-chief. | ||
| And now the New York Times has just, excuse me, has excavated this large new hole of investigations that the Republicans must take on. What | ||
| were these people in uniform doing? | ||
| And more importantly, for the last three, four years, why weren't they putting out the truth | ||
| when they went before the Jan 6th Committee, when they took interviews, when Mark Milley wrote his | ||
| book? The only person that put together a book and had the audacity to go out and get the government | ||
| gangster's own documents, the Capitol Police stuff, the Pelosi stuff, the Bowser stuff, the DOD stuff, | ||
| not to pat myself on the back, but was me. | ||
| And I got slugged in the face for it for four years. | ||
| And that's why I'm proud to be making a movie with you, brother. | ||
| And I can't wait for this thing to be released so America can finally get the truth on screen because they are being disserviced by Congress right now. | ||
| The movie's going to be explosive. | ||
| It's incredible. | ||
| And Cash and the team have just done an incredible job. | ||
| Cash, where do people go? | ||
| Your recommendation to Johnson is don't wait to have the election, that these investigations have to start now, particularly when the left-wing press is giving you basically all the information you need to start. | ||
| Here's the thing, the investigation's done. | ||
| It's in the book. | ||
| I already did it. | ||
| I offered to come in and help you guys for free. | ||
| No one wants to do anything over there that takes away from their headlines. | ||
| And I don't care anymore if you're Republican or Democrat. | ||
| I find fewer and fewer people on Capitol Hill who want the truth. | ||
| So Speaker Johnson needs to put on his big boy pants and marshal this evidence, not for themselves, for Congress. | ||
| Cash, where do people go to get all your information, social media, the site, your merch, all of it? | ||
| Yeah, just go to thecashfoundation.com. | ||
| We got the best merch in the game. | ||
| We broke through with a half a million dollars of charitable donations just this past month. | ||

| We're really proud of that. | ||

| All proceeds, unlike what the media is reporting, all proceeds from all my sales of merch go back to the foundation. | ||
| And you can support me at governmentgangsters.com by buying the bestseller Government Gangsters, which War Room Entertainment and I are releasing a film in about four to five weeks. | ||
| Of the bestselling book that the Biden administration tried to bury for 10 months. | ||
| I took him to federal court. | ||
| I won. | ||
| Now America knows why I put the truth in this book and why the Biden administration didn't want it out and why they tried to worm all it. | ||
| But Bannon, I can't wait for our premiere in June in Texas. | ||
| It's going to be absolutely amazing. | ||
| Cash, thank you very much. | ||
| Honor to have you on here. | ||
| Honor to be doing the film. | ||
| War Room Films first. | ||
| Our first made-from-the-ground-up. | ||
| Natalie Winters, you're joining me. | ||
| First off, help me out here. | ||
| The New York Times. | ||
| No friend of MAGA. | ||
| Quite frankly, I don't think any friend of the truth. | ||
| Paper record, though. | ||
| Two articles in the last 72 hours. | ||
| One on the vaccine injured. | ||
| And people haven't done that. | ||
| I'll get it up. | ||
| But they have a huge article about vaccine injured that you could almost say, gosh, they must be watching the war room. | ||
| And then now on the National Guard and President Trump, your thoughts just about this. | ||
| Are we seeing a sea change? | ||
| Are they afraid that there's going to be a change here of the illegitimate Biden regime going to be tossed out? | ||
| I mean, what's going on? | ||
| I think you should give yourself a little more credit. | ||
| Remember when we won the misinformation super spreader award from the New York Times, it was because journalists from the New York Times and researchers from Brookings Institution had to watch every single hour of War Room from its inception. | ||
| So maybe we should take some credit for some of this reporting. | ||
| I'm of course kidding. | ||
| They're very late to the party, but I frankly think that the buried lead of the New York Times piece on January 6th is that there was concern among Let's call it what it is, the permanent political class, the sort of military ossified swamp creature types, which is why you started the show, right? | ||
| War Room Impeachment. | ||
| They thought that Trump could, quote, misuse the National Guard. | ||
| He is the president, right? | ||
| He is the commander in chief. | ||
| It is his National Guard. | ||
| Whatever he wanted to do with them, within obviously logical conclusion, he can't do anything wrong. | ||
| He can't misuse them, right? | ||
| And that's what sort of goes back to, I think, what the War Room Posse has seen since day one of this show and War Room Impeachment was all Hang on a second, but you're saying when you really read it, the rationale was he was commander in chief. | ||
| foreign policy. So this was sort of the domestic equivalent of it. But you're so right if they | ||
| didn't have. Hang on a second. But you're saying when you really read it, their rationale | ||
| was he was commander in chief. The implied thing he did make the order. They thought, | ||
| hey, we know, but we have to we have to de Trumpify, which is what Biden is doing right | ||
| now in the Republicans about this Trump second term. | ||
| We have to take a direct order and we have to change it because we know better and we're free. | ||
| I mean, that's essentially a coup, is it not? | ||
| That's what it is. | ||
| But that's what we've seen since day one, really since before day one of the Trump administration. | ||
| And I think that it goes to something much more sinister, which is how we've seen the weaponization, but the intentional weaponization of the events that unfolded on January 6th. | ||
| Otherwise, CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times, they'd be running test patterns. | ||
| They'd have nothing to do, right? | ||
| They've used it to create the domestic terrorism, the hate crime narrative. | ||
| That's why they prosecuted, persecuted all these people as individual cases. | ||
| But it goes back to something that we spoke about, what was it, two weeks ago. And I | ||
| think you have to look at this. I know we've been looking at what's been going on in the college | ||
| campuses through the paradigm of sort of a Maoist cultural revolution, but it has been so advantageous | ||
| politically for the Democrats to hype January 6th into, you know, the greatest attack on this country since 9-11. | ||
| And it harkens back, I think, to the Hundred Flowers Movement when it comes to China, the | ||
|
unidentified
|
kind of precursor of the cultural revolution. That happened in the 50s, right? | |
| 56 to 57, where they invited criticism of the state only to be able to identify who their largest opponents were. | ||
| And when you see the type of people that they're going after and persecuting and putting in prison, obviously yourself included, Peter Navarro, they're even going after influencer types. | ||
| But the people that they're prosecuting and putting in jail, those are the hardcore MAGA activists, grassroots type, the people who are leading their communities. | ||
| When you take them out, It is. | ||
| It is a heavy hit to the MAGA movement. | ||
| That is intentional. | ||
| Plus it's a symbol that, hey, if you step up and replace these guys, we're coming for you too. | ||
| And frankly, with this reporting, the New York Times think, you know, three, four years down the road, they can toss out a peace thing with a vaccine injury thing. | ||
| And that's going to be enough for the War Room Posse, for the MAGA, for the actual truth tellers to just say, oh, well, Hey, at least you're on your side. | ||
| I'm sure you'll probably win a Pulitzer Prize for it. | ||
| But it's not. | ||
| But frankly, they know they can get away with it because Republicans and their weak staffers aren't going to do anything about it. | ||
| And it's the overlap, like you always say, the pattern recognition of the same individuals who are involved, whether it was the war, the impeachment trials, both of them with President Trump. | ||
| January 6th up, I remember someone from Blue Star Strategies, a firm that was very intimately involved with the first impeachment of President Trump. | ||
| He was one of the senior advisors to the January 6th committee. So there's this revolving door | ||
| of people who are sort of all in on the joke. And I think if you really take a step back | ||
| and extrapolate it, and frankly, it even goes with what I think we'll be talking about next, | ||
| whether it's the World Health Organization or college campuses, but these NGOs, these nonprofits, | ||
| the, the dark money groups that are behind all of these just very, very damaging isms and ideologies | ||
| and movements to this country, whether it's pandemic treaties, feminism, this domestic | ||
| terrorism and censorship of misinformation narrative, it's all being seeded from the same money. | ||
| And they say what their goal is. | ||
| It's death to America. | ||
| You don't have to go to Iran to hear it. | ||
| Just go to Columbia. | ||
| Just go to NYU. | ||
| Just go to the University of Chicago. | ||
| And the same people who are funding protesters who are comfortable saying, death to America, I don't take their word on what democracy means. | ||
| I don't take their word on whether or not COVID vaccines are safe and effective. | ||
| They use these couchy punchy terms, right? Safe and effective. You can always | ||
| kind of do the split screen with all the different mainstream media networks, but it is predictive | ||
| programming. They're getting their talking points from this central locus, which is the type of people | ||
| epitomized by McCarthy and Miller sitting over at the Pentagon saying, oh, well, Donald Trump wants to deploy the | ||
| the National Guard, but we think he's gonna misuse it. | ||
| I miss the part where tens of millions of Americans voted for any of these people. Right, and not him as command | ||
| chief. | ||
| The vaccine injury, let's go back to the New York Times for a second. | ||
| What is the pivot there? | ||
| They know now because nobody's taking it. | ||
| Moderna, the other day, Moderna's revenues have dropped, what, 91%? | ||
| People are, even people that were so gung-ho are rejecting it. | ||
| It's obviously that people were injured. | ||
| You got Chris Cuomo is now admitted that that he's injured. | ||
| Why is the New York Times doing such a pivot, particularly when they went out of the way to demonize shows like ourselves and you personally to because we were reporting at the time year after year about what the issues were. | ||
| Well, and they have Ashish Jha, Biden's former COVID-19 response director, basically the poster child of get the COVID-19 vaccine on News Nation, giving an interview dovetailing with that New York Times piece saying, oh, what do you mean? | ||
| We've totally been looking into the VAX injured. | ||
| We care about them. | ||
| We want to work with, you know, haste and fury to make sure that they get their day in court, that they get compensation. | ||
| I think to take a step back, we walked through this with Dr. Wolf on last night's show, sort of the science behind it. | ||
| But I think the more curious question, and you know it's how the mainstream media works, everything has to do with timing, right? | ||
| They've known all of this to be true since the inception of these vaccines, but it's lies of omission that they tell, right? | ||
| So the fact that they're bringing it up now, I think we need to take a step back and say, why would the, whether it's big pharma, the medical industrial complex, want to try to foster trust? | ||
| Among the American people that they know what they're doing when it comes to the vaccines that they actually have the ability to be judicious and litigious and how they're adjudicating whether or not these vaccines actually work. | ||
| And I think that it sort of brings it to the broader narrative, which I would say goes quite nicely with what the World Health Organization is doing in terms of broadening their purview over not globally, but country by country, the sovereignty of countries, including the United States, when it comes to pandemics and public health. | ||
| But but specifically to the fact That I think that if you see another pandemic, if you see another, you know, disease X, whatever you want to call it, emerge, that they sort of want to be able to rest on their laurels and be able to say, what do you mean? | ||
| We have covered vaccine injuries. | ||
| Didn't you? | ||
| You choose to trust us. | ||
| You should go to May. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Let's talk about the WHO. | ||
| You're particularly concerned about the three card money they're doing, whether it's a treaty, whether it's this change in regulations. | ||
| What's the update? | ||
| Well, the WHO, it's sort of confusing. | ||
| They always have a new treaty, a new regulation, a new body, a new group that they're introducing. | ||
| But I think that that's sort of it's the fog of war, right? | ||
| The fog, frankly, biological war. | ||
| And I think it's all intentional. | ||
| But the latest one that people should be focusing on is the basically renewal of international health regulations again they use these very vague terms where I | ||
| don't even think the bureaucrats are pushing it know exactly what it means but | ||
| the vagueness is intentional because within that vagueness you see stipulations | ||
| that the WHO if they so choose can shut down borders although | ||
| frankly maybe we should hire the WHO to shut down our border maybe that's what we | ||
| should do but that they could basically mandate certify basically mandate | ||
| vaccines quarantine policies. But again I think... Over national sovereignty. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Because they would say this goes across national borders. | ||
| These are the international regulations the U.S. | ||
| bought into it. | ||
| This is what governs. | ||
| Yeah, these are people who fundamentally, to their core, believe in the concept of global government. | ||
| And I remember from my time at the University of Chicago, that was just sort of a given when I would take my political science courses. | ||
| The assumption was, we need to go to something to fight climate change, the pandemics. | ||
| Global government, the sustainable development goals. | ||
| It wasn't even, let's debate if these are good or not. | ||
| It was, that is the framework whereby we are operating in. | ||
| I always, of course, took issue with that. | ||
| But like I was saying, all of these same entities that are funding, whether it's, frankly, the Hamas protesters that you're seeing on college campuses, the backers of the transgenderism, the feminism movements, these very just harmful cultural ideologies, too. | ||
| They're all in league. | ||
| They're the same people who are funding this global government ideology, too. | ||
| And I think all of these things sort of work together, like you've said when you invoke Mao, to destroy the nuclear family, to frankly just destroy American culture and traditional values here, because it's a lot easier to destroy a country from within. | ||
| You know my background is in Chinese Communist Party infiltration, and hats off to that. | ||
| Do you see that, and you see a direct parallel, Mao and the Cultural Revolution, what's going on here? | ||
| There's no doubt in your mind? | ||
| No, no doubt at all. | ||
| I feel like it's a it's a cliche at this point. | ||
| I mean, just just look at the college campuses. | ||
| And frankly, I mean, these universities have taken so much money from the Chinese Communist Party, too. | ||
| You know, they don't really have plausible deniability. | ||
| And of course, Qatar and all these other countries. | ||
| But, you know, it's the University of Chicago and Harvard. | ||
| Harvard and Columbia just hosted the China United States Exchange Foundation for their You can tell it's not totally self-organizing. | ||
| group that is funded by the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| And that's frankly, Steve, I think how you know that these protests are there's something | ||
| there's there's a there there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. It's more than just the you can tell it's not totally self-organized. | |
| Because they should be arguing to divest from China, too. | ||
| They should be frankly arguing to divest from big pharma, too. | ||
| Right. If you want to talk, go nail by nail, hammer by hammer in terms of it had an internal | ||
| logic to it. If they really cared about human rights abuses, frankly, even if they cared, | ||
| if they really were just myopic and we only care about Muslims, then you should care about | ||
| what China is doing to the Uyghurs in Xinjiang. | ||
| But there's no ideological coherence there because it's not ideologically driven. | ||
| It's amped up. | ||
| It is. | ||
| It is. | ||
| It is intentionally weaponized by people like George Soros, but don't miss the forest for the trees. | ||
| There's a whole network there. | ||
| He's just sort of the figurehead. | ||
| The Tides Foundation, the whole group. | ||
| And the Tides Foundation just announced, we were talking about this on the last night show, $200 million to turn out the vote specifically among young people of color and, you know, marginalized communities, whatever that means, ahead of 2024. | ||
| And I want to link this to something else. | ||
| I think when you see this mass invasion of the country, Right. | ||
| People who we know there's reporting that they're trying to sign these people up to vote. | ||
| I would argue that I think it's fair to say that you're going to see that those funds | ||
| and these left-wing groups, which are conveniently, they're concurrently going after making sure | ||
| these people can become legal citizens here while simultaneously trying to influence the | ||
| 2024 election through ballot harvesting and vote manipulation and advocating for policies | ||
| that will make it easier for people like that to vote. | ||
| So it all converges, right? | ||
| None of these are isolated or siloed incidences, but that's sort of the point because you get | ||
| lost in the fog of war, but luckily we have the war room. | ||
| Well, in this regard, we keep talking about investigations. | ||
| Do you think, are the staffs restrained by the members or are the staffs of kind of the same ilk as the members that they're quite frankly just afraid to take that step? | ||
| All you got to do is beat down the first door and it'll empower you. | ||
| Is the reason that It takes War Room and Real America's Voice and other shows and the podcast and Naomi Wolf and people we have on here. | ||
| And you see that we're winning the information war because more people are coming to our sides and we're outgunned 10 to 1. | ||
| Is it because they're just so hesitant to take on? | ||
| You have to kick down the door here. | ||
| You have to be aggressive. | ||
| Is that the problem? | ||
| I'm proud to say I've never been a Hill staffer. | ||
| But from my outside view, looking in, look, I think it's twofold. | ||
| One, these people want to just stay within the system. | ||
| They're not into deconstructing and defanging the administrative state. | ||
| But secondly, the foreign influence operations are so deep, so vast and so dark. | ||
| The Chinese Communist Party runs foreign influence programs specifically targeted at congressional staffers. | ||
| So part of it, I think, is that these people are weak, just frankly effeminate types. | ||
| I think there's also a level, the same efforts that they're mounting to influence members of Congress. | ||
| The Chinese Communist Party knows the Achilles heel really is the staffers, and that's why they've paid to take them overseas to China for decades. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| Social media, where do people get you? | ||
