| 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 gonna 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. | ||
| Hello, I'm Steve Stern, CEO of FlagShirt.com, a third generation, better known small business. | ||

|
Action. | |
| You've got an Islamic flag with an Islamic star, eight-pointed star, flying above the Minnesota State Capitol. | ||
| Absolutely embarrassing. | ||
| You've got this now all over the country. | ||
| And they can't say, oh, it's a North Star. | ||
| You have Cleveland, you have everywhere else, about 15 other of these Islamic stars, more than ever. | ||
| You need to embrace not just the American flag, but what it means. | ||
| It's not just symbolism, but the history of it. | ||
| We're rolling up on Memorial Day. | ||
| Of course, here in the War Room, we're going to have three or four War Room specials for Memorial Day, as we always have. | ||
| Patrick A. O'Donnell is going to join us, but we have much, much more. | ||
| We'll be announcing that, and we're going to kick it off with actually the coverage of the President Trump's rally in South Bronx, which I couldn't be more ecstatic. | ||
| Raheem Kassam, thank you for joining me. | ||
| I think I'm going to be there. | ||
| You're going to be there? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think so. | |
| You'll be our special correspondent. | ||
| You're actually going to go up to South Bronx. | ||
| Why is it so important for you to be there? | ||
| I'm going to wear this in the Bronx as well, by the way, to stand out like a sore thumb. | ||
| Well, no, I think they're pretty stylish up there. | ||
| It's a monumental event. | ||
| We actually have an incredibly good piece of analysis up on the National Post by Gavin Wax and Troy Olson, who helped put this together. | ||
| Well, Gavin was key about putting it together. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, he told me about this back during the New York Young Republicans gala over Christmas. | ||
| He said, I think Trump should do a Bronx rally. | ||
| I think he told him when they were sitting at the table together. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| And so that's how it came together. | ||
| I'm going to get Steve Stern up here in the flag shirt company in a second. | ||
| You have covered, written books about the situation with, particularly the cultural, what the Sharia supremacists try to do culturally. | ||
| You see now Jackie Torber has had these articles about all of a sudden we've got flags everywhere that have the eight-point Islamic star, of course, they're saying, oh, it's really the North Star. | ||
| We're honoring the North Star. | ||
| That's all BS. | ||
| It wouldn't have happened all over. | ||
| How important is it for us to stand up for the patriotic culture of the United States or end up like England is right now, where you see just overwhelming rise of Sharia supremacism? | ||
| You wrote the book. | ||
| Was it a decade ago you wrote No-Go Zones? | ||
| It was 2016. | ||
| Remember, you were banned from Fox. | ||
| I think Frank Gaffney was banned from Fox for even mentioning the book on TV. | ||
| Was he not? | ||
| No it wasn't, it wasn't the book, it was, there was pre the book, there was a chap, his name is, it wasn't Frank, but he had talked about how David Cameron, the Prime Minister at the time, now the UK Foreign Secretary by the way, who was just at Mar-a-Lago, you know, campaigning for more money for Ukraine, how there were no-go zones in Birmingham in England, and this guy goes up on Fox and makes the allegation, and it's not, The definition of a no-go zone is so stupid as far as the mainstream media is concerned. | ||
| If the cops can't go there, if the ambulances can't go there, if ordinary people feel threatened walking down the street, it's a no-go zone, right? | ||
| It's not like you have walls put up to reflect. | ||
| But here's the thing, back to your point real quick. | ||
| The symbolism is so important to what they do. | ||
| And when I went to France, especially these Arab-dominated neighborhoods in France, you saw the exact same thing. | ||
| They paper over the French flag with their flags. | ||
| They paper over the monuments of France and the history of Western civilization with theirs. | ||
| That's what's going on with these flags. | ||
| And unfortunately, multicultural Britain, multicultural Europe, they tried to come to | ||
| an accommodation with these people. | ||
| Oh, if we just let them do this, then they'll be happy. | ||
| If we just let them turn every pub into a mosque, they'll be happy, which by the way | ||
| is happening much to my chagrin. | ||
| No way. | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| Pubs being turned into mosques? | ||
| Pub closures in the United Kingdom are at an all-time high, and many of them are being | ||
| converted into mosques. | ||
| And the theory went, you know, we can come to an accommodation with these people. | ||
| You can't come to an accommodation with these people. | ||
| Sharia supremacists. | ||
| It's the subtitle of my book, right? | ||
| No Go Zones. | ||
| How Sharia is coming to a neighbourhood near you. | ||
| Do you see, from the time he wrote the book, and it was principally focused on Europe, I mean, you went, you were one of our editors, you ran Breitbart London, but you went to some very dangerous, it was Brussels and Amsterdam, what were the two most dangerous you went to? | ||
| I think it was in Brussels, that was that section of town that was so dangerous, people were heckling you. | ||
| Yeah, you have Molenbeek, and it's especially dangerous for women, especially dangerous for women who have long hair, blonde hair, not covering their heads in places like that. | ||
| But really, I mean, I think a lot of the neighborhoods in France, especially some of the suburbs of Paris, are far more dangerous. | ||
| Sweden especially. | ||
| In the ten years, the trend line here is terrible. | ||
| Oh, so it's become, internecine, Middle Eastern gang violence has been normalized now in Sweden to the point where they don't even report in the media anymore these grenade attacks and these gunfights. | ||
| Grenade attacks? | ||
| Oh yeah, there are regular grenade attacks in Oslo. | ||
| Fighting for turf, fighting for turf between each other. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| That rolls over into the general population. | ||
| Exactly, exactly. | ||
| Steve Stern, this week in the run-up to Memorial Day, the flagship, you're doing specials, you've got special products, all of it. | ||
| We're also celebrating today, what, the 70th anniversary of the flagship company? | ||
| We have 70 years in it, but I bought the company from a guy and it's really 90 years old. | ||
| It was started in 1934. | ||
| And I started my business in 1954. | ||
| So we're going to have I'm wearing a new shirt that just came in three days ago. | ||
| So you can get it because it's brand new. | ||
| It's beautiful. | ||
| It's the first time we've ever done this shirt. | ||
| And if you get it on one of your rallies, you'll just be a star. | ||
| Now, John Fredericks is somewhere the other day. | ||
| He saw all our people wearing it. | ||
| There's a lot of rallies coming on. | ||
| There's a lot of big things to happen. | ||
| The first thing is going to be Memorial Day. | ||
| So we want everybody to go to theflagshirt.com. | ||
| You can give me a call at 954-318-6902. | ||
| I think some of the people don't have computers. | ||
| You can go to estern1054gmail.com. | ||
| Keep that name up there and that sign up there. | ||
| You see it on the bottom because it's very important. | ||
| We have three big things going on. | ||
| The first thing is we're going to have an election security meeting on June the 5th. | ||
| We just had one last Thursday, thanks to you. | ||
| We had 65,000 people on it, different We had real people going on it. | ||
| We had Cleta Mitchell on it. | ||
| We had Garland Fabrino. | ||
| We had Colonel John Mills. | ||
| But the biggest person we had on there was Katherine Engelberg. | ||
| And she told us about what's going on with the illegal aliens. | ||
| So it was very important. | ||
| Now, then we have Flag Day. | ||
| Flag Day is coming up June 14th, President Trump's birthday. | ||
| You see him in the background here. | ||
| And we gave him a flag shirt for his last birthday. | ||
| Two birthdays ago, he sent me a beautiful letter for my birthday. | ||
| And for Flag Day this year, we're doing it a little differently. | ||
| And I want all the people in the posse to look outside. | ||
| If they ever have a flag out there, or they know somebody that's got a flag out there, have them take a little video of it. | ||
| And for 30 seconds, tell us why you have your flag up there and what it means to you. | ||
| For this country to run this flag because you know people are burning the flags, they're stepping on the flag. | ||
| We need to show them for Flag Day that we mean business. | ||
| So we will put this up during our new Flag Day event which is going to be 24 speakers. | ||
| Last year we had 46 speakers. | ||
| We'll be on for four hours and what we'll be doing is we'll be talking about the history of the flag. | ||
| So the first person will get on to the beginning of the history, the second person will be on the history now. | ||
| So you'll know Way back then, and right now, what's happening there. | ||
| We have some terrific people coming on. | ||
| We have Tom Renz, Dane Sensor, Joni Bryant, Emeril Robinson, Linda Lanier, Dave Brat, you know him very well, Jeff Kooner, who's on the radio, and a lot of stars. | ||
| One America News is going to be on there, Newsmax. | ||
| We're trying to bring people from every walk of life to let you know what's going on in this country. | ||
| And then we have the Fourth of July, so you want to make sure you go to theflagshirt.com and get that information. | ||
| As fast as possible. | ||
| Also, we want people to get involved. | ||
| The country's not going to be saved unless we get involved. | ||
| We have 400,000 slots in the Republican Party. | ||
| Dan Schultz and you were working on this for 14 years. | ||
| Go to precinctstrategy.com. | ||
| Understand how you can get involved in every state. | ||
| I'm the vice chair of the Republican Party in Broward County, and we are doing wonders here. | ||
| What we're doing a little differently this year, we're going to spend $100,000 on all kinds of social media and letting people know that we exist. | ||
| Because a lot of people don't really know that the Republican Party has executive town committees, and you know, if you want to get involved, give me a ring at estern1054 at gmail.com. | ||
| Also, if you want to become a poll watcher and poll worker working very closely with the RNC, go to this website and you can become a precinct committee man, you can become a poll watcher, poll worker, Get involved. | ||
| This is the time to get involved. | ||
| This is my, as you said, my 83rd birthday, 70th year in business. | ||
| We had a great party this afternoon, and I want to just show something on there. | ||
| Two years ago on your show, when I got home from my birthday, I got a beautiful letter here from President Trump, which you can see, for my birthday, which is exciting, because how many people get a letter from the President of the United States Saying all these nice things about you, and I want to thank everybody who's called, and thank you for my birthday. | ||
| You deserve it, because you're the most ambitious 83-year-old I've ever met for fighting for his country. | ||
| So Steve Stern, we're going to make sure everybody goes to the Flag Shirt Company this week in the run-up to Memorial Day and all the other great work you're doing. | ||
| Thank you, brother. | ||
| Happy birthday, and happy anniversary of taking the company. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Action, action, action. | ||
| Let's do it. | ||
| Action, action, action. | ||
| We're going to try to get Jane Zirkle. | ||
| We're going to pick up Jane Zirkle at the bottom there and talk about this. | ||
| I hope Justice Alito's neighbors were watching that segment. | ||
| Is that the biggest made-up controversy you've ever seen? | ||
| This is all to get him to accuse himself for the immunity. | ||
| It's all sorts of things, by the way. | ||
| They've now started to go after him. | ||
| For a little while, it was Kavanaugh. | ||
| Then it was Clarence Thomas. | ||
| Now it's Alito. | ||
| They're going after him now on the Bud Light stuff. | ||
| Because they think he's the most anti-abortion up there. | ||
| It's a little bit of that, but also it's a little bit of, you know, they're taking their shots where they can find them. | ||
| And they're weak, by the way. | ||
| Oh, there was a flag that flew upside down outside his house. | ||
| The latest one was, oh, he sold some Bud Light stock when the stock was going down. | ||
| Yeah, you would do that. | ||
| With the trans when they try to normalize the trans. | ||
| Two of my favorite publications, Politico and The Guardian, went after specific people we know and love. | ||
| Want to start with Politico. | ||
| Brent Reagan joins us now from Idaho. | ||
| You're the, what is it, the Katoni? | ||
| I think I pronounced it right. | ||
| Katoni County GOP Chair. | ||
| Politico's got a piece up there. | ||
| One of our favorite, if not the most favorite part of the country, is the American Redoubt. | ||
| Of that part of, I think, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, that you guys are in. | ||
| And they're saying that the northern part of Idaho, sir, that you're very involved in, which is MAGA, and they call right wing, is now under assault. | ||
| It's actually got a bunch of progressives up there. | ||
| They're going to flip it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Is any truth to the Politico story? | |
| Well, you know, political story is mostly exaggeration up here in Kootenai County. | ||
| And by the way, too, Kootenai County went, I think, 91% for Trump during our caucus. | ||
| And I'm also a delegate. | ||
| The Trump campaign selected me as a delegate to the RNC for the third time. | ||
| So I'm proud and honored to be a Trump delegate. | ||
| But yeah, what happens is they say everything that's conservative up here is extreme. | ||
| and the left likes to overplay their hand and then complain about the overplayed hand. | ||
| People in North Idaho, they're friendly, they love to get along, they are personable, | ||
| and we really enjoy it up here. | ||
| However, the Politico article goes in and calls us all a bunch of extremists | ||
| and extreme right wingers. | ||
| That's a term of relativism. | ||
| If you're on the extreme left, everything looks to be on the extreme right. | ||
| But what we've got going on is, for the last 10 years, the conservative grassroots base of the party has been making slow and steady ground in making sure that we've got good conservatives in the Idaho legislature. | ||
| Ten years ago, the most liberal legislator was a Republican from Sandpoint. | ||
| You say, well, how does that happen? | ||
| They're more liberal than the Democrats. | ||
| And they'd go home to Sandpoint, which is up in North Idaho, and tell everybody there that they're a good conservative. | ||
| And then they'd go down to Boise, which is down in the south of the state, clean across the state, and they'd go and they'd vote for a big government, more taxes, and liberal policies. | ||
| Well over the years we've been making slow progress and eventually two years ago we were able to the conservatives were able to take over party leadership in a landslide. | ||
| The the Rhino chairman that was in there got booted out. | ||
| A good solid conservative Dorothy Moon was voted in and the attacks started immediately. | ||
| I mean, the hall wasn't even empty and people were running to the press saying what an extreme group had taken over the party, when minutes before, literally minutes before, they were there saying how we have to get along as a party and everybody needs to work together and it's Ronald Reagan 80%. | ||
| Well, as soon as the actual grassroots conservatives take over, the Ronald Reagan quote goes out the window and they're saying, well, these Republicans are Republicans we can't have in the party. | ||
| Let's get rid of them. | ||
| We've also had a problem for quite a while with Democrats coming into the party. | ||
| Last election cycle, the Democrat mayor of Sandpoint wanted to run for governor, but he had forgotten that he had registered as a Republican. | ||
| So when he went to run, they told him, well, you can't because you're registered as a Republican. | ||
| You're registered as a Republican, so you vote in the Republican primary. | ||
| We have a candidate at this next election, which is Tuesday, tomorrow. | ||
| Who less than a year ago was the chairman, or excuse me, the treasurer for the local Democrat Party. | ||
| And she's now running as a Republican for the Idaho Senate. | ||
| So this is a problem that's been going on for a while. | ||
| What's unique this cycle is Idaho's got 974 precincts, right? | ||
| And 44 counties. | ||
| And every precinct elects a precinct committeeman, and that precinct committeeman serves in the county's central committee and helps set policy for the county and also for the Republican Party. | ||
| And we also elect delegates to our convention and so on. | ||
| So they're the base of the party. | ||
| Well, there's a group down in Boise called Gem State Conservatives, which aren't conservatives at all. | ||
| They've raised a couple million dollars, and they're trying to take over the party by displacing all the precinct committeeman. | ||
| And up here in Cooney County, we've got 73 precincts, 70 of them, 70 are being challenged. | ||
| And the challengers are folks who voted for Biden. | ||
| There are folks that want rank choice voting. | ||
| There are folks that support having materials that are harmful to minors in libraries. | ||
| We had a big fight here over basically what was pornography in the children's section of the library. | ||
| If you had given one of those books to a child outside the library, you'd be guilty of a crime in Idaho. | ||
| But those books were proudly on display and there was a big fight to get enough people elected to the library board so that they would move those books from the children's section to the adult section where they belong. | ||
| Of course, we were called book burners and wanted to ban books and so on. | ||
| It wasn't that at all. | ||
| We just wanted to make sure that if you dropped your kid off at the At the library, in the children's section, you wouldn't have to stand over their shoulder the whole time and make sure they didn't pick up a book that was displayed on one of the counters describing various sex acts. | ||
| So, anyhow, this effort that they're trying to take over the precinct committee, and we have 70 challengers, and we're in the fight for our lives. | ||
| We got everybody that we can that's trying to come in and take over the party, and we are there fighting back. | ||
| Tuesday, and all the Idaho listeners out there, make sure you go and vote Tuesday if you're a conservative, and make sure you research and find out who your actual conservative precinct committeemen are, and get in there and vote. | ||
| Brent, I'm going to have you back on later to talk about why you've got these awful senators and why you've got an awful congressman in the state, a great state, and really the state that's the keystone of the American redoubt But we gotta bounce. | ||
| But where do people go to get information that you've got? | ||
| What site do they go? | ||
| Everybody that's listening to us, watching us today, that's in Idaho, that's registered to vote, you gotta get out there and represent tomorrow. | ||
| But where do people go today? | ||
| Either social media or your website to find all the information. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, we have a great website called gemstateheist.org. | |
| That's G-E-M-S-T-A-T-E-H-E-I-S-T dot org. | ||
| And that's got a bunch of information on what we're calling the Gem State Heist. | ||
| You know, it happened in Colorado. | ||
| It was a Rocky Mountain heist and Democrats took Colorado and turned it blue. | ||
| Trying to do the same thing here. | ||
| And we're trying to stop them. | ||
| We could certainly use your help. | ||
| Particularly with all, as great as Idaho is, you got all these progressives and liberals moving in there right now, and they're going to try to screw these states up. | ||
| We'll get back to you, Brent. | ||
| Keep the fight up. | ||
| We'll talk to you tomorrow about how it turns out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Great. | |
| Thank you, Steve. | ||
| We had victories in Minnesota and Georgia over the weekend. | ||
| Brahim, you see this fight all the time. | ||
| I mean, this is down and dirty, where the precinct strategy has gotten on a roll. | ||
| Now you're getting the pushback, and particularly places like Montana and Idaho are at the tip of this. | ||
| Yeah, places that I actually have never been as well. | ||
| We have to send you up to Montana. | ||
| You know, I've done like 44 states, but I've missed that. | ||
| You've missed the American Redoubt? | ||
| That's it. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| That's the last part. | ||
| Okay, I think that's actually the American Redoubt is the redoubt for the headquarters of Christian nationalism in the country. | ||
| One of the great... | ||
| You just heard about the books and pornography and you're called book burners. | ||
| The Guardian has got a new book out. | ||
| They came for the schools and this is the one the left is pushing nonstop. | ||
| But it was very specific about an area of the country that the Patriot Mobile Patriots, Leigh Wham's guns and her team, Have you had a chance to look at this book because they're going to push this to be a New York Times number one bestseller. | ||
| This is about the fight at the school boards and the leftist panic. | ||
| So they got this book out about quote unquote how they took on people that you were involved in. | ||
| What's your assessment? | ||
| So I wasn't going to look at the book, but thanks to leftists who were still and are still attacking our city, they dropped a copy of this book off with a nasty gram attached to one of our executive committee members. | ||
| And they allowed me to go run by their house yesterday and pick it up off their porch. | ||
| So now, yes, I have read the book. | ||
| And I think people find it very interesting. | ||
| I always say consider the source and do your own homework. | ||
| So this reporter admittedly, even in the prologue, had a Black Lives Matter sign in his front yard, extreme anti-Trump, I mean anti-Trump derangement syndrome, and was mocking citizens. | ||
| And this is for the 2020 timeframe when the riots were very violent in Dallas. | ||
| We saw a man beaten by a pipe, people were shot, people were getting hurt. | ||
| He was literally mocking citizens who were simply discussing on social media how to best protect their families. | ||
| It's really full of fiction, and he accurately knows his nickname in Southlake, which it's not Mike Hicksonbaugh, it's Mike Fictionbaugh. | ||
| So yes, I have read it. | ||
| Just to give you some highlights, chapter three, he praises Ibram Kendi on how to be a Anti-racist. | ||
| That is the whole BLM, CRT Bible that the left has. | ||
| Chapter 5. | ||
| It literally states and says that, talks about studies where infants are showing their racial differences. | ||
| I think he's referring to Anti-Racist Baby, which was one of the books that the left was buying into with the people marching in the streets, talking about how babies, white babies are born racist. | ||
| It's really, really insane. | ||
| I kind of blame you for reading this book, Steve, but it was entertaining to say the least. | ||
| What was the, when they sent it to your, because the left is all over this book, they say this shows you a roadmap of how you beat back these radical fascists at the school board levels. | ||
| And they understand, they've used the school, they've used school boards and schools for their propaganda machine. | ||
| What was, can you summarize the nasty note that was, that was attached to the book when it was dropped off of one of your executive? | ||
| Sure, and I can show it. | ||
| I'm telling you, when the Guardian gets in back of something, as Raheem can say, they've got a method to their madness here. | ||
| Well, it basically said, thank you for ruining Southlake with your activism. | ||
| This book was written because of you. | ||
| Let me tell you, the people who politicized the schools, and this started decades ago, is when the left was indoctrinating kids. | ||
| And that is the politicization of public education. | ||
| It is in starting in 2020 and we started seeing a lot before the BLM riots. | ||
| It was because one of the few blessings of COVID families were at home. | ||
| They were able to see the curriculum that their kids were looking at. | ||
| They were able to hear the teachers and see the pride flags behind them and the anti-American rhetoric. | ||
| So then during the summer of 2021 Antifa and BLM started marching in the streets, it was no wonder to see so many young Americans that hated America, because we started to realize that for decades and decades, the left has been indoctrinating our youth. | ||
| Your school that you and I went to, I went to public high school, is not at all teaching what we learned. | ||
| It's not at all the same focus on education. | ||
| It was all indoctrination. | ||
| But yet when we fight back and want to get back to education, and by the way, one of the best school districts in America, South Lake, Texas is on the map as having some of the best curriculum, some of the highest education standards, And they wanted to take all of that away. | ||
| I'll give you an example. | ||
| In this cultural competence action plan that they were using to attack our schools, it mandated social justice training as a requirement for graduation. | ||
| It created a diversity police with denying due process to students and teachers. | ||
| It inhibited the ability to hire teachers based on their most qualifications. | ||
| It wanted to implement Both race and sexuality is hiring criteria for who would be instructing the students in our district and would require teachers to take a cultural competence test. | ||
| You know, teachers were coming out of the woodwork, bringing us the training that was required. | ||
| One of those screenshots that was brought to me had a list of different nationalities. | ||
| And the question was, who should die first? | ||
| And this teacher could not progress to the next screen without answering the question. | ||
| So there was no right answer to that. | ||
| You would be called a racist, however you answered it. | ||
| It's just, it's this horrific, very, you know, Hitler-esque change in education. | ||
| You know, the first thing he did was change the history books. | ||
| And I want to go back to your Idaho guest talking about book burning. | ||
| They started to lose the CRT, the critical race theory war, because Southlake, Texas is the one who revealed it. | ||
| And Southlake, Texas and the parents in Southlake, Texas, when they learned of this, and all I did was publish the document. | ||
| It's a 34 page document. | ||
| And this was before there was a PAC, before any of that. | ||
| I just published like the top 10 highlights with a link to read the whole document. | ||
| And I hoped because in South Lake, Texas, they bleed green. | ||
| It's dragon football. | ||
| It's all about the dragons from K through 12. | ||
| There are no different mascots. | ||
| Everyone's a dragon. | ||
| I thought if we could get maybe 10 people to go to the school board meeting to stop this 34 page cultural competence action plan. | ||
| It would be a huge victory. | ||
| I thought maybe if a hundred people would sign the petition. | ||
| I put it out on social media. | ||
| Within 48 hours, I had almost 3,000 signatures from Southlake parents who stood up and said, no, this is not acceptable for our city and we're going to stand against it. | ||
| And we're still fighting it. | ||
| Lee, where do people go? | ||
| What's your social media? | ||
| What website they go to get more information? | ||
| So Southlakefamilies.org is the website. | ||
| You can go read the plan, see a lot of the key points and see a lot of the media coverage. | ||
| Fantastic. | ||
| Great fight. | ||
| We're going to have you back on to go in more depth later in the week. | ||
| Short break. | ||

All this nonsense, all this spin, they can't handle the truth. | |
| War Room Battleground with Stephen K. Vannin. | ||
| We have from Idaho all the way to Texas. | ||
| You guys have been covering this over at National Pulse and doing a great job of it. | ||
| This cultural, the cultural wars we have going on. | ||
| I mean, you've got the economy, you've got the invasion of the southern border. | ||
| You know, Royce White went through this this morning, how he won to be the official endorsed candidate for the Senate coming out of nowhere. | ||
| Royce got two thirds of the vote. | ||
| He says, I focus and he says, I'm taking it to the black community. | ||
| I think I'll get 50 percent or more of the black male vote under 55. | ||
| He says, I focus three things, the invasion of the southern border, the massive spending is causing inflation, and the forever wars. | ||
| He says, I specifically stay away from the social, cultural wedge issues. | ||
| But this issue, particularly the schools and the propaganda in the schools, It's central to not just MAGA, but to turning this republic around so that we don't end up like Europe, when we don't end up like your beloved United Kingdom, where you can see what they've done in the schools. | ||
| You see this whole cultural thing that right now, nobody will stand up for the country. | ||
| Look, they will pump the kids full of estrogenics, right? | ||
| And fluoride and all of these things that create, I'm not going to say it creates one, you know, one thing or another. | ||
| Fluoride, you're going to John Birch Society, but you know, no, no, but you're going back to the point of that the MAGA movement because of the vaccines, the pandemic could be the leaders in like real health, not, not the biopharmaceutical industries, health, not, not big corporations, health, what they've done to us. | ||
| Moral imbalance and chemical imbalance go together, and the enemies of America understand that. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| They work hand in hand. | ||
| Rahim Qasim, that's very profound. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| Repeat that, that's great. | ||
| It's so good I'm stealing it and using it as homage. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You can have it, like most of my ideas. | |
| I just know how to push them out more. | ||
| You are the king of repetition, I'll give you that. | ||
| Moral imbalance and chemical imbalance go together, right? | ||
| They understand this, they lay the groundwork to mess with people's heads, to mess with their brains, to | ||
| mess with their bodies, to mess with the way they think. Look, I mean, look at all | ||
| of the stuff that's going on with birth control and all this stuff. Women are finally | ||
| starting to realize, hey, maybe this actually isn't good for my hormones. Maybe it's not good | ||
| for my brain. And a lot of people are moving away from that now. This is the same thing that's | ||
| happening here. And so you've got the, we know about the chemical imbalances, and we know about | ||
| the chemical imbalances, by the way, that they continue foisting upon people. A lot of my | ||
| friends are on like a Sempic and stuff like that. And I'm like, you don't know what this thing is going | ||
| to do to you in five or ten years time. | ||
| Yeah, back off. | ||
| You can't touch me. | ||
| Back off. | ||
| Like, go to the gym. | ||
| And I say it from a guy that might need to lose a couple pounds. | ||
| Of course, I see Rahim. | ||
| You wear this thing today because I embarrassed you so much the other day. | ||
| The guy's fully ripped. | ||
| You didn't embarrass me, you just kept touching me. | ||
| Fully ripped. | ||
| Of course, he's got the pink thing. | ||
| Now that you've mentioned this, I want to bring in Ben. | ||
| I was going to start with Persia, but I wanted to start with the Pope's interview last night. | ||
| How is that tied to Rahim's, if you have chemical, as a chemical imbalance, you have moral imbalance. | ||
| This interview with the Pope I thought it was one of the most outrageous things I've ever seen, and 60 minutes is a complete joke. | ||
| That was the biggest—it wasn't even softball. | ||
| It was not even coach pitch. | ||
| It was a T-ball interview, Ben Harnwell. | ||
| Steve, hey Rahim. | ||
| Well look, the hashtag NotMyPope doesn't do serious interviews where he can be questioned and have his ideas and his erroneous presumptions questioned, not even lightly. | ||
| He's vigorously against that. | ||
| What he does is, as you say, it's not even softball, it's just propaganda. | ||
| My take on this, Steve, is that this is a declaration on behalf of the institutional Catholic Church that is not going to sit on its hands over the next six months in the run-up to November. | ||
| This is very clearly a fake pope coming in to support, how can I put this, a fake US president. | ||
| Listen to this direct intervention in US Domestic politics. | ||
| This is talking about the border closing, the border down in Texas. | ||
| This is what hashtag not my pope said. | ||
| This is madness, sheer madness, to close the border and leave them there. | ||
| This is madness. | ||
| The migrant has to be received. | ||
| So this is using all the authority, and I put that in inverted commas, because very few people in the Catholic Church are still listening to this guy. | ||
| Most of them have just switched off. | ||
| Even his fellow ideological Travelers basically just use him now for convenience. | ||
| A man who's massively disliked. | ||
| He refers to US Catholics saying that they have a suicidal attitude. | ||
| He says, because one thing is to take tradition into account, to consider situations from the past, but one who clings to something and does not want to see behind that. | ||
| I think he qualified that as US conservative Catholics or traditional Catholics. | ||
| He made the separation from the progressive Catholics that follow him, that we are on a suicidal path, correct? | ||
| We were trapped in an ideological box, I think he said. | ||
| Wasn't that the quote? | ||
| That's right. | ||
| It's closed up inside a dogmatic box. | ||
| But from his perspective, and he's made this clear right throughout his inverted commas pontificate, he associates traditionalist Catholics with American Catholics. | ||
| They are broadly synonymous to him. | ||
| He does have a couple of key activists that he used to try to undermine the US Catholic Bishops Conference, but really he sees the whole thing as an enemy bloc against his agenda and that puts him in a very difficult position because it's basically the Americans and the Germans who have the money. | ||
| Yeah, fund the church. | ||
| Hang on for one second. | ||
| I want to go back about, because he threw down hard on the illegal alien evasion. | ||
| He said it was madness for us to even try to stop and have a border. | ||
| This was the guy in 16, don't remember, don't forget in 16 he went to Mexico and had the mass Right there on the southern border where they were reaching through the fence and everything like that. | ||
| He got on the plane and essentially said Donald Trump would be a disaster for Christendom, a disaster for Catholicism. | ||
| Is Ben Harnell right? | ||
| Is he coming in now even harder to get directly involved in the 2024 election? | ||
| Oh definitely. | ||
| I mean he absolutely knows that a statement like that will be immediately politicized. | ||
| It's intended to be a political statement and it's intended to influence the US election. | ||
| I want to know, not that I endorse this idea, but I want to know if the Vatican has opened its hundreds of thousands of spare square feet to accommodating migrants that are coming in Uh, to, to Italy, albeit separate, separate state, but, um, you know, this is, this is, this is, hey, once again, you guys can deal with this, as you say, right? | ||
| Uh, uh, take the hindmost, um, and, and the rest of us are gonna live, live just fine. | ||
| By the way, takes us back to the Met Gala, right? | ||
| It takes us back to the theme of the Met Gala, which was, um, which was the, the Garden of Time, right? | ||
| Which was the, the, the horde A massing at the villa and all that was left in the end was the horde of people and the statues of yesteryear. | ||
| Remember, was it the Met Gala I think the year before or the year before that, but it's been the last two. | ||
| actually mocked the church. | ||
| Remember, they put the church vestments up, they're going to be thinking, and all of them were coming in. | ||
| It was demonic about what they're doing, right? | ||
| And that was, I think, the New York Archdiocese let themselves up this. | ||
| How detrimental, because this guy also came out and hugged Ben Harnwell, the cult of climate change. | ||
| I mean, which to me is a neo-pagan religion. | ||
| It's the religion of Gaia, right? | ||
| Mother Earth. | ||
| Here's a guy supposed to be the head of the Catholic Church, the direct descendant and the unbroken chain from Jesus Christ himself, that embraces The neo-pagan Gaia climate change cult at the same time mocks really the sovereignty of nations in Christendom that can actually prosper, but you have to have borders, you have to have your own culture, sir. | ||
| Steve, this entire inverted commas pontificate is a raised clenched fist against heaven against high heaven hashtag not my pope or even hashtag not my anti-pope it really just depends on what mood i'm in when i wake up in the morning the entire agenda of this um of this pontificate is to take the things that catholics revere and mock them and and it's disgraceful um it's absolutely appalling but you know | ||
| Why he currently is positioned at the top of the apex, it is difficult for Catholics to resist. | ||
| It's not the Catholic mentality to resist the Pope. | ||
| This is why what's taking place now, certainly since the death of Pope Benedict, more and more people are now saying that Benedict, there was something going on with Benedict's resignation, Now, I've never really subscribed to this myself. | ||
| However, I do think it's a legitimate question and people who were involved in the last conclave do need to come forward now. | ||
| And I think, for the sake of the credibility of the church, they need to go on the record as well. | ||
| They need to say what happened in the last conclave. | ||
| There's too many ambiguities over the resignation of Ratzinger and the election of Pope Francis. | ||
| I personally detest the guy. | ||
| He's a total phony. | ||
| It's not the constant socialism, Steve, that upsets me. | ||
| It's the open mockery of everything that Catholics revere. | ||
| Let me play this, even if you're not a Catholic. | ||
| I'm going to play the clip and I'm going to ask Rahim, whose professional life is about the sovereignty of Europe and the sovereignty of the European nations. | ||
| And what's happened, remember, this invasion is an Islamic invasion of Europe. | ||
| It shouldn't be lost. | ||
| Here's a guy who embraces a neo-pagan cult at the same time as the number one supporter of essentially A Islamic invasion, Sharia supremacist invasion of Christendom in its home, or in the European home. | ||
| Let's go and play the clip. | ||
|

|
And you have talked about, with migrants, many of them children, that you encourage governments to build bridges, not walls. | |
| Migration is something that makes a country grow. | ||
| They say that you Irish migrated and brought the whiskey. | ||
| And that the Italians migrated and brought the mafia. | ||
| It's a joke. | ||
| Don't take it badly. | ||
| But migrants sometimes suffer a lot. | ||
| They suffer a lot. | ||

I grew up in Texas, and I don't know if you've heard, but the state of Texas is attempting to shut down a Catholic charity on the border with Mexico that offers undocumented migrants humanitarian assistance. | |
| What do you think of that? | ||
| That is madness. | ||
| Sheer madness. | ||
| To close the border and leave them there? | ||
| That is madness. | ||
| The migrant has to be received. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thereafter, you see how you're going to deal with them. | |
| Maybe you have to send them back. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| But each case ought to be considered humanely. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right? | |
| And your first? | ||
| Rahim has been on the take from the U.S. | ||
| government. | ||
| They're one of the worst. | ||
| The NGOs are the central beating heart of the problem. | ||
| Your assessment of this politically? | ||
| Well, actually, when you look at the clip and when you hear him speaking, he very clearly is just... it's virtue signaling, right? | ||
| There isn't any depth necessarily to what he's saying. | ||
| Oh, it's madness. | ||
| It's madness. | ||
| Well, tell us why it's madness. | ||
| You know, how is it mad? | ||
| And at the beginning of that, he says, well, migrants are just people who make the country grow. | ||
| Well, What also makes the country grow, which somebody like the Pope of Rome should know, is natalism, right? | ||
| It's having more children, it's growing the family, the nuclear family, all of that kind of thing. | ||
| And so this is pablum, really. | ||
| This is sophomoric pablum that you're hearing from one of the most influential figures in the world. | ||
| And again, to come back to the original point, this is intentionally designed just to interfere in the U.S. | ||
| election. | ||
| You cannot have the situation where NGOs are reliant upon government, who have an open borders policy, and then you have somebody going, oh, well, it's terrible that they're doing this to the NGOs. | ||
| They're not NGOs, OK? | ||
| Forget about it. | ||
| They are governmental organizations. | ||
| You're saying Catholic Charities is an adjunct to the US government. | ||
| It is an arm of the regime, completely. | ||
| And it's silly to start talking about these places and things as if they're charities, as if they're arm's-length bodies. | ||
| What do you think of 60 Minutes, the way they teed up the question? | ||
| But it's so transparent. | ||
| That's the thing. | ||
| We saw in 2016 as well, a lot of this stuff will just come back to talking points. | ||
| And that's what that sounds like to most people out there now, because they understand that | ||
| actually on the border, actually in the, not even on the border anymore, right? | ||
| In their communities all over the United States of America, they have mass migrant issues. | ||
| They could be financial issues because of this. | ||
| They could be job issues. | ||
| They could be broader economic issues. | ||
| There could be crime issues as we know there have been many of them. | ||
| Week upon week, we publish a migrant crime statistical thing on the National Pulse to | ||
| show people like this, these are not, and by the way, the Labour Party last week in | ||
| the United Kingdom saying we got to bring 2.3 million Gazans in because they're academics | ||
| and they're doctors and they're philosophers and they're great, you know, nonsense. | ||
| You know, the average IQ of Gaza, I think was something like 69, which is, which is, | ||
| know there's no better way to say this It's unintelligent people and they want to use them as indentured servitude, indentured labor. | ||
| This is the new slave class that corporate America, corporate Europe is trying to mass import and that man up there is endorsing that. | ||
| Ben Hardwell, we got to bounce. | ||
| Closing thoughts. | ||
| We'll do Ukraine tomorrow because we've got so much to report there and also what happened in Persia. | ||
| I don't know if there's a Mossad or Rahim thinks it's internal regime taking it out. | ||
| We'll do that tomorrow. | ||
| Closing thoughts on the Pope's, I think, disgraceful interview with 60 Minutes. | ||
| The third possibility is that it could be Mojtad Khamenei, the IAEA to the present Supreme Leader's second oldest son, who fancies his chances. | ||
| And now with Raisi out of the way, who was the presumed frontrunner for that fight, Because, of course, it's the Supreme Leader who's really in charge of Iran, not the President. | ||
| So, you know, in terms of cui prodis, the old Latin expression, who benefits, in ascending order, no, in descending order, I'd start off with the President Ayatollah Hussein, then I'd go to Mossad, and then probably third place, I'd go to the CIA. | ||
| But it could be an inside hit, because there's movements going on there. | ||
| With regards to what Rahim was saying about hashtag not my pet, Absolutely correct. | ||
| I'll close with this observation, Steve, right? | ||
| It's absolutely fraudulent, his shtick of saying that he wants to have compassion towards migrants, and migrants need to be treated humanely. | ||
| Because in and of itself, that's perfectly true. | ||
| But also, I tell you, who needs to have some compassion directed towards them? | ||
| And that's taxpayers, right? | ||
| Especially Poor, sort of, working class, regular people who are being priced out of their jobs by this influx of cheap immigrant labor, right? | ||
| And I want to know, right, our globalists, our overlords, our sociopathic overlords, when they're out on the world stage in interviews, like 60 Minutes, preening, and as Raheem absolutely correctly says, it's virtue signaling, how can you do that? | ||
| How can you go and have A feigned, synthetic compassion to people you do not know and that you've never met, because it's compassion in the abstract, to a category of victim in the abstract. | ||
| When the actual people who are paying the burden of that, your friends, your neighbours, your families, who are struggling to find work, struggling to pay the taxes that they pay, that pay for all the migrants, these people are Shouldering this burden every day to the actual people that you literally do know. | ||
| Zero compassion and zero humanity. | ||
| What kind of person can do that? | ||
| Steve, I'll tell you the answer. | ||
| It's a psychopath who can do that. | ||
| I have no time for this fake compassion because it's not genuine and it's bringing the Catholic Church You and I, and I think with him as well, that as an institution that we care deeply about, and many non-Catholics care deeply about the integrity, many Protestants as well, Evangelicals, care deeply about the integrity of the Catholic Church and her mission in the secular world sliding towards the devil, right? | ||
| With that going on, this guy, this so-called Pope, is preaching a gospel which is not of Jesus Christ. | ||
| I just want to make that point. | ||
| It's not possible to have compassion in the abstract to people in the abstract whom you do not know and just turn a cold shoulder on the people bearing the price of that, people that you do know. | ||
| It's not genuine. | ||
| It's not authentic. | ||
| It's disgraceful. | ||
| Ben, where do people go for your social media? | ||
| Getter, my social media platform of choice at Harnwell, which is simply my surname. | ||
| Thanks, Steve. | ||
| Thanks, Raheem. | ||
| God bless. | ||
| Thank you, brother. | ||
| National Pulse. | ||
| I want people to sign up. | ||
| Where do they go? | ||
| I think we need to have a whip-round fundraiser for Ben Harnwell's security in Rome, quite frankly, after that. | ||
| Quite an honest tirade, I think. | ||
| It's really jarring. | ||
| And I think you're right. | ||
| You know, a lot of people care about the integrity. | ||
| You have to be Catholic to care about the integrity of the Catholic Church and preservation of Catholic doctrine. | ||
| In fact, one of the things that surprised me so much about being an American going to Protestant churches was how much they attack the Catholic Church from the pulpit. | ||
| And I just thought, you know, There are institutions here that need preserving and people need to come together and fight along the same lines. | ||
| I get the physios, believe me, but Han was absolutely right. | ||
| The NationalPulse.com forward slash war room is the domain. | ||
| Your coverage has been amazing, so I want to make sure that people get there. | ||

| Okay, birchgold.com slash abandon. | ||
| Make sure you get the end of the dollar empire. | ||
| More importantly today, given what's happening in the economy and the price of gold relative particularly to the drop in purchasing power of the dollar. | ||
